Speaker 1: That choke when the rents passed you in the carball Star,
Speaker 1: when the only sponsors like broken hard. We're hanging on
Speaker 1: this janky stream.
Speaker 2: Two weird voices in the glow of a stream.
Speaker 1: If the worm bo say to let him laugh.
Speaker 2: With the Heck, it's a brand new episode. This is
Speaker 2: the Friday Happy Hour Laugh with Me podcast with Jeremy Odoman.
Speaker 2: I'm your home.
Speaker 1: Jeremy stares at the stats, handshaking over takeout boxes. Johnny's
Speaker 1: already mapping hotels on a napkin with crazy crosses. They
Speaker 1: quit jobs a kind of tell their losses catch the show.
Speaker 1: Goss just shrugs, Oh, it's funny.
Speaker 2: Johnny grants y'all, Nevern Jo and Johnny. I don't know
Speaker 2: how many more words we can put in that intro
Speaker 2: before I, uh that pull back and tell him that
Speaker 2: I'm the host. That's it's starting to get a little
Speaker 2: a little ridiculous, Johnny. But I appreciate all your hard
Speaker 2: work there putting uh putting this together. Thank you to
Speaker 2: Johnny Palermo, our producer. He doesn't get nearly enough credit
Speaker 2: uh for the work he does here at Laugh with Me,
Speaker 2: So thank you, john That's for me. Well, I'm still
Speaker 2: I'm still healing a little bit from my broken back.
Speaker 2: You know. It's uh, it's tough. It's tough, a little
Speaker 2: little issue sleeping. But the muscle relaxer that I have
Speaker 2: been prescribed, and the and the patch it's like a
Speaker 2: Lado Kane like patch you put over where the broken
Speaker 2: rib is. Like, that's that kind of helps. I don't
Speaker 2: know if any of y'all have ever had to uh
Speaker 2: use these, but man, it it actually do make you
Speaker 2: just a little more comfortable. And let's let you forget
Speaker 2: about the pain for at least a little bit. That
Speaker 2: it's pain, but more like a discomfort, you know, helps
Speaker 2: you forget about the discomfort for just a little bit longer. Well,
Speaker 2: it is Friday, it's that happy hour. We're getting ready
Speaker 2: for the weekend. Yeah, baby, we're getting ready for the weekend. Now.
Speaker 2: One thing I have done in the last week that
Speaker 2: we're gonna talk about today is I saw the movie
Speaker 2: Spider Man Brand New Day. Awesome movie. Number one movie
Speaker 2: in America, in America, not and not just America, number
Speaker 2: one movie in the world. Exciting for people to get
Speaker 2: hyped for the Marvel Universe again, because boy, sure I
Speaker 2: haven't even seen that New Avengers movie yet, not the
Speaker 2: not the newest Avengers movie. It's called New Avengers. I
Speaker 2: have not seen that one yet, but from what I
Speaker 2: had read, I wouldn't be lost if I watched Spider
Speaker 2: Man first before I go back and watch that one,
Speaker 2: which so that's what I did. You gotta go see
Speaker 2: the Spider Man right when when it's a new Tom
Speaker 2: Holland action movie out and awesome movie, awesome, awesome movie.
Speaker 2: But what we have found is that some people, and
Speaker 2: I mean, like I said, this is the number one
Speaker 2: movie in the world right now, what we have found
Speaker 2: is not every theater experience has been great. Now ours
Speaker 2: was awesome, Okay, Brandon and I went to see Spider
Speaker 2: Man brand new day. It was a late showing. It
Speaker 2: was like a ten fifteen PM showing. That night it
Speaker 2: came out and it was a pack theater. We had
Speaker 2: to sit up front. I don't like to sit up front,
Speaker 2: and I strut, you know, kind of have to look
Speaker 2: up the whole time instead of forward at the big
Speaker 2: S screen. I'm looking up over and across. It's like
Speaker 2: it's a whole thing. Braiden said, Oh, it didn't even
Speaker 2: it didn't even bother. I'm sitting up front. I'm sitting
Speaker 2: in front. Wasn't that bad? I could still see everything?
Speaker 2: And yeah, you could see everything, but you're moving, you know,
Speaker 2: your head moving up, it's moving side to side. You're
Speaker 2: trying to catch everything that's going on. The next time
Speaker 2: we see this movie, we'll be looking dead on at it.
Speaker 2: I guarantee we're gonna see things that we hadn't seen before.
Speaker 2: And that's just because we're working, you know, our neck,
Speaker 2: our head, it's working just to see what's going on.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 2: The movie theater experience itself was really good, Pat Kroud.
Speaker 2: Everybody was enjoying the movie. Everybody making noise at the
Speaker 2: right times. It was awesome. Popcorn pop good to go.
Speaker 2: But well, we're gonna talk about today Friday, Happy. We
Speaker 2: we're gonna dig in. We have ourselves a brand new
Speaker 2: Laugh with Me reports. It's because in Colombia the movie
Speaker 2: theater experience wasn't so great seeing Spider Man this week,
Speaker 2: and we're we're gonna dig right into that right now
Speaker 2: as we get ready for once again, a brand new
Speaker 2: Laugh with Me reports. Hello, folks, I'm Jeremy Odoman. Tonight
Speaker 2: we are going to Columbia because apparently Spider Man has
Speaker 2: finally encountered a villain he cannot defeat with webshooters, and
Speaker 2: that would be flatulence. That's right. A movie theater in Cartagena, Columbia,
Speaker 2: had to evacuate a screening of Spider Man brand new
Speaker 2: day after an audience member allegedly released a smell so
Speaker 2: horrific that hundreds of people had to actually abandon the theater.
Speaker 2: And I want you to understand something. This wasn't a
Speaker 2: simple Hey, somebody farted. This wasn't a little okay, And
Speaker 2: everybody kind of looks around. Who did that?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: This, you know, this was apparently we gotta get the
Speaker 2: fuck out of here. That's not a fart. Okay, that's
Speaker 2: an act of terrorism against the human respiratory system. Like
Speaker 2: if you're if the smell that comes out of that
Speaker 2: ass is so bad that an entire theater of people
Speaker 2: have to immediately run, My guy, that's not just a fart.
Speaker 2: So here's what happened. The incident reportedly happened during a
Speaker 2: screening at the Sina Columbia Multiplex inside Plaza Boca Grande
Speaker 2: in Cartagina. Okay, everything normal, night, people hyped for Spider Man,
Speaker 2: Tom Holland doing his Spider Man things Zendeia. Of course
Speaker 2: she was on screen right people eating their popcorn, just
Speaker 2: loving life. Somebody was probably texting during the movie, because
Speaker 2: you apparently you can't just watch a movie without having
Speaker 2: to tell people what you're watching. Apparently there's things going
Speaker 2: on outside the theater that require your attention now, and
Speaker 2: you can't just go into a movie for a couple
Speaker 2: of hours and enjoy life. Have you noticed that I
Speaker 2: take ross the people are watching The Spider Man and
Speaker 2: then boa the smell hit. According to reports, the odor
Speaker 2: became so overwhelming that hundreds of movie govers evacuated the auditorium.
Speaker 2: But here's my favorite part. There was reportedly a guy
Speaker 2: in a Spider Man costume among the people fleeing the theater.
Speaker 2: Imagine being Spider Man getting your ass kicked by ass.
Speaker 2: That's humiliating. Like you can fight Green Goblin, you got
Speaker 2: Doctor Octopus down pat you could even fight Venom, but
Speaker 2: this he can't stop Doctor Colon. You know, Spider Man
Speaker 2: has something called a spider sense right where he can
Speaker 2: just kind of the hair on the back of his
Speaker 2: neck kind of rises, and he can he can sense
Speaker 2: something's wrong. It's supposed to warn him when danger's coming,
Speaker 2: but apparently his spider sense this time went danger, Danger.
Speaker 2: Somebody ate the wrong thing, and Spider Man himself probably
Speaker 2: looked around and thought something's coming and then realized, yeah,
Speaker 2: it ain't coming from the screen. How bad was this fart? Now,
Speaker 2: I've been to movie theaters and I've experienced movie farts first.
Speaker 2: In fact, I've been a part of movie farts, okay,
Speaker 2: And I'm I'm not here to tell you that story today.
Speaker 2: Although it was a time watching Titanic, and my buddy
Speaker 2: Travis and I we thought it'd be funny to just
Speaker 2: be ripping ass through the quiet parts of the movie. Yeah,
Speaker 2: people in front of us did not appreciate that. I'm
Speaker 2: gonna tell you that right now. They stood up and said,
Speaker 2: trying to watch the movie. And I don't blame them
Speaker 2: as an adult now, and frankly, I was not an
Speaker 2: adult back then. So let's just let's just go ahead
Speaker 2: and put that aside right now. Okay, Now, as an adult,
Speaker 2: I totally get it. We're in there, we're just trying
Speaker 2: to watch a movie. This wasn't your ordinary two teenage
Speaker 2: kids with with theater farts. No, it wasn't a simple
Speaker 2: You're sitting there watching a movie and suddenly you smell something,
Speaker 2: and everybody knows what happened, but nobody says anything. Okay,
Speaker 2: being civilized, you just sitting there thinking, maybe that smell
Speaker 2: goes away. That's the optimism of it. That's how people die, though,
Speaker 2: because the smell gets worse and eventually sitting there thinking okay,
Speaker 2: either someone just shit themselves or the popcorn machine has
Speaker 2: become sentiment. But the incident apparently went beyond that. Okay,
Speaker 2: this wasn't maybe a bad popcorn machine. People didn't just
Speaker 2: change seats. They didn't cover their noses, and they didn't
Speaker 2: whisper dude, did you smell that? Okay, this was worse.
Speaker 2: They evacuated hundreds of people. That means the fart wasn't
Speaker 2: just localized, it had to range. Okay, that's not a fart,
Speaker 2: that's an entire weather system. Thank you, Johnny, he's missed
Speaker 2: all my other I've had some punchlines in here, Johnny,
Speaker 2: I top of the episode, I give you all this credit.
Speaker 2: Come through for me, buddy, come through for me one time.
Speaker 2: Back to the report. Think about being in that theater.
Speaker 2: Watch it, Spider Man. Suddenly that smell hits Someone gets up,
Speaker 2: Then another person gets up, Then twenty people get up.
Speaker 2: Now you have a hunch hundred people that cannot handle this. Eventually,
Speaker 2: the whole theater is standing in the hallway and there's
Speaker 2: only one person who doesn't want to leave. There's always
Speaker 2: that guy. He's just sitting there like, I'm not I
Speaker 2: paid seventeen dollars for this movie, sir. You cannot negotiate
Speaker 2: with a terrorist. You cannot negotiate with a fart. The
Speaker 2: fart doesn't care about your ticket price. The fart doesn't
Speaker 2: care about rotten tomatoes. Okay, the fart doesn't care that
Speaker 2: you've been waiting three years for this new Tom Holland banger.
Speaker 2: The fart has one goal, and that's to empty the building.
Speaker 2: But here's where the story gets interesting. The person responsible
Speaker 2: was reportedly never identified, which means we have a genuine
Speaker 2: mystery in our hands, Like who dropped the bomb? Was
Speaker 2: it an accident? Was it intentional? Was it some poor
Speaker 2: bastard who'd been holding it in since the previews? Like
Speaker 2: we'll never know who dropped the bomb, and I don't
Speaker 2: want to accuse anybody but let's be honest, there was
Speaker 2: a person in that theater who knew, Like they know
Speaker 2: right now. They're probably sitting at home right now watching
Speaker 2: the news, maybe even hearing this report, and when the
Speaker 2: reporter says hundreds of people were evacuated after a mysterious odor,
Speaker 2: they're just sitting on the couch like, wow, that is crazy, Like, motherfucker,
Speaker 2: you know what you did? You need to just googling
Speaker 2: theater evacuation in Columbia and just loving all this attention.
Speaker 2: Spider Man. The title of this movie is Spider Man
Speaker 2: Brand New Day, and that's perfect because those people definitely
Speaker 2: had a brand new day. They went into that theater
Speaker 2: thinking I'm going to enjoy a superhero movie the next Marvel.
Speaker 2: They came out thinking I have survived biological warfare. The
Speaker 2: movie should have been called Spider Man No Way Home,
Speaker 2: because after that smell, there was no way anybody was
Speaker 2: going home without burning their clothes. Now, because I'm a journalist,
Speaker 2: and by a journalists I mean a guy sitting in
Speaker 2: the basement right now talking to a microphone, I've developed
Speaker 2: some theories. Okay, theory number one, the person probably ate
Speaker 2: something questionable before the movie. Maybe some beans, possibly eggs.
Speaker 2: I mean we've all been there, right, maybe something from
Speaker 2: a food truck that came with a warning label. You
Speaker 2: ever eat something we're halfway through, You're like, I'm going
Speaker 2: to regret this, and then your stomach says not halfway through.
Speaker 2: I'm talking about during the credits. I mean, I've lived it.
Speaker 2: I live it on a daily basis where ive eating
Speaker 2: something and I'm like, ah, this is the zaying it, guys,
Speaker 2: the z ain't it? So I can kind of relate
Speaker 2: to this to this person, whoever you are. Theory number two,
Speaker 2: it was deliberate. Maybe somebody bought like that fart spray.
Speaker 2: And if that's the case, that's an incredible commitment to
Speaker 2: being an ant because you didn't just ruin a movie.
Speaker 2: You ruin the movie for hundreds of people. Okay, that's
Speaker 2: not comedy. That's a declaration of war. And this scene
Speaker 2: that seems like a very likely case here. Theory number
Speaker 2: three that it actually was Spider Man. Okay, think about it.
Speaker 2: Nobody knows where Spider Man came from, nobody knows where
Speaker 2: he went, and everybody knows Spider Man has a mask.
Speaker 2: Maybe there's a reason for that. Maybe Peter Parker wasn't
Speaker 2: protecting his identity. Maybe he was protecting the public. There's
Speaker 2: a few theories out there for it. This incident also
Speaker 2: raises an important question, what are the rules when you
Speaker 2: fart in a movie theater? Because I think we need
Speaker 2: some We need to set a certain level of guidelines.
Speaker 2: Rule number one, if it's silent and harmless, you walk
Speaker 2: away with your dignity. Okay. Rule number two, if it
Speaker 2: makes a sound, You've got two options. Option A, pretend
Speaker 2: it wasn't you. Option B. You gotta own it. You
Speaker 2: gotta turn around and say, ladies and gentlemen, my apologies.
Speaker 2: That's respect. Okay, that's leadership. That's if you release something
Speaker 2: so powerful that people start evacuating. Okay, you don't get
Speaker 2: to leave. You have to stay. You have to face
Speaker 2: your victims, and you need to walk into the hallway
Speaker 2: and say I'm sorry it was me. Then everybody gets
Speaker 2: to decide whether you deserve to live. I mean, that's
Speaker 2: that's living in a community of people. Okay, that's living
Speaker 2: in a society. I got no beef with that. I
Speaker 2: also love that someone reportedly fled the theater while wearing
Speaker 2: a Spider Man costume. That is the most hilarious image imaginable.
Speaker 2: Hundreds of people running for their lives and there's Spider
Speaker 2: Man in the middle of them. Just imagine seeing that.
Speaker 2: You don't know what's happening. You just see Spider Man
Speaker 2: sprinting down the hallway. At that point, you just don't
Speaker 2: ask questions. You run, You follow Spider Man. Okay, if
Speaker 2: Spider Man's running away, we're fucked. Thank you, Johnny. You
Speaker 2: still miss some punchlines, But that's okay. You know what
Speaker 2: Americans would have done. It's a good thing this happened
Speaker 2: in Columbia. We would have immediately started investigating. Within five minutes,
Speaker 2: There'd have been a Facebook group called who farted at
Speaker 2: Spider Man Columbia area. People would be posting blurry photos
Speaker 2: anybody recognizes man. Possible suspect sitting in Roe g witness
Speaker 2: says he bought nachos at seven fourteen breaking. Suspect may
Speaker 2: have consumed three chili dogs and then some guy, maybe
Speaker 2: a guy named Randy, would comment, I know who it was.
Speaker 2: Randy don't know shit. Randy wasn't even there. Randy was
Speaker 2: four hundred miles away. But okay, Randy knows. You always
Speaker 2: get those fucking people. I imagine the theater staff had
Speaker 2: a very difficult conversation though. Okay, you have somebody, why
Speaker 2: are people leaving? Next person? Well, I think there's a smell.
Speaker 2: What kind of smell? Well, I don't know. Is it chemical? No, electrical,
Speaker 2: we'll no gas leak will know? Well, then what is it?
Speaker 2: I think somebody farted. That's not a sentence you want
Speaker 2: to say professionally. I mean, that's not the kind of
Speaker 2: sentence that makes you question your career. Okay, you went
Speaker 2: to work that day expecting to sell popcorn. Now you're
Speaker 2: standing in an empty theater trying to determine whether a
Speaker 2: human asshole has become a public safety hazard. Maybe this
Speaker 2: is the future. Have you ever considered this. We've got
Speaker 2: three D, we've got Imax, we've got that Dolby utmost
Speaker 2: and now smell a vision except nobody orders it. Just
Speaker 2: imagine the movie theater advertisement experienced Spider Man like never before.
Speaker 2: You won't just see the action, You'll smell the action,
Speaker 2: and then they'll come in with them no refunds. The
Speaker 2: best part of the story is that the movie itself
Speaker 2: wasn't necessarily canceled. The movie theater was eventually aired out,
Speaker 2: and apparently some moviegoers decided they'd seen enough and maybe
Speaker 2: smelled enough, so they went home. And honestly, I respect
Speaker 2: that because there are moments in life when you have
Speaker 2: to just accept defeat and you can't always finish what
Speaker 2: you started. Sometimes you just have to look at the
Speaker 2: situation that say, yeah, I'm not watching that final forty
Speaker 2: five of Spider Man because there is something in the
Speaker 2: air that has made me question every decision I've made
Speaker 2: since birth. Somewhere in Columbia right now, there's a person
Speaker 2: walking around who knows that they caused an entire movie
Speaker 2: theater to evacuate. They'll never admit to this. Hopefully they
Speaker 2: take that secret to the grave, and that's probably for
Speaker 2: the best because we don't need to know who did it.
Speaker 2: We don't need a name, we don't need a face,
Speaker 2: don't need a big confession, we don't need to remember. Okay.
Speaker 2: One thing we do need to remember, though, is that
Speaker 2: it did happen. On one faithful night in Columbia. Spider
Speaker 2: Man met his greatest enemy. And it wasn't the Green Goblin,
Speaker 2: and it wasn't Venom, and it wasn't doctor och doc Oc.
Speaker 2: It was the human ass and unlike every other Spider
Speaker 2: Man villain, this one couldn't be defeated with the web
Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen. That was laugh with me. Reports I'll
Speaker 2: tell you what I like. I said, I have definitely
Speaker 2: definitely been the movie theater farther before. Okay, I don't
Speaker 2: know that I've ever publicly admitted to that. I've done
Speaker 2: it once on purpose, once on purpose, and that was
Speaker 2: it feels like a million years ago, watching Titanic, Trav
Speaker 2: and I trying to build him up and let him fly.
Speaker 2: But that those people in front of us that were like,
Speaker 2: come on, we're trying to watch the movie. That really
Speaker 2: that really sat with me every time I've seen a
Speaker 2: movie ever since. Okay, this is no time for fun
Speaker 2: and games. This is time to sit and enjoy the
Speaker 2: art that has been given to us. And ever since then,
Speaker 2: I've respected it. I've respected the movie theater going experience
Speaker 2: ever since that day. But this this guy, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: assume it's a guy in Columbia. I'm gonna go ahead
Speaker 2: and just put that on them. Man, this guy has
Speaker 2: taken it to an entirely another level. And to that fella,
Speaker 2: I say, cheers, it has been the Friday happy hour.
Speaker 2: Laugh with me. Who will see y'all next? Did so.
Speaker 1: When the rents passed too, in the carball starday, when
Speaker 1: the only spuzzlers my broken heart. We're hanging down this
Speaker 1: shanky stream. Two weird voices in the glow of a screen.
Speaker 2: If the world boss to let it laugh, When
