Speaker 1: has never eaten baby back ribs. Wow, and look at this.
Speaker 1: Someone has the original in the studio. Oh no, this guy,
Speaker 1: his name is Guy bam Arito and he was the

Speaker 1: It's a very big That was sort of a latter

Speaker 1: You guys look we're doing our can't believe this is
Speaker 1: the show. Otis Williams, No, oh god, I mean you
Speaker 1: can't believe this is the show. There was David Ruffin,
Speaker 1: Otis Williams, Paul Williams, the baritone Eddie Kendricks was the
Speaker 1: tenor Melvin Franklin on the base and let me killmeister
Speaker 1: on on the on the other base. Alright, p Lemmy,
Speaker 1: what do you got today? Chuck? How you doing? I'm
Speaker 1: doing great, Noll And the reason I this is all
Speaker 1: just been so ham fisted. I thought that was from
Speaker 1: the eighties and this is an eighties episode. That's the
Speaker 1: big surprise. If you, if you would, if you'd clue
Speaker 1: me into these things, I might be able to drop
Speaker 1: some more theme appropriate reference. You want me to send
Speaker 1: you a fucking syllabus, now send me a memo, an email,
Speaker 1: a text. I don't know. I like the eighties. I
Speaker 1: love the eighties and were that No, yeah, of course
Speaker 1: you do. It was his clip shows where they like
Speaker 1: talk about the eighties with different talking heads on v
Speaker 1: H one. I never saw those, but I know what
Speaker 1: you're talking about. You lived the eighties, though, didn't you, Chuck?
Speaker 1: You lived? I lived him. I don't need to see
Speaker 1: what Michael ian Blackhouse to say about him. But gosh,
Speaker 1: she's charming, isn't he know? He's great? But he's on
Speaker 1: he was on the show. He's not one of the
Speaker 1: shows shares on them. Occasionally. There's a lot of kind
Speaker 1: of regular usual suspects on those types of ship. That
Speaker 1: was a fun little gig for them. I bet it
Speaker 1: was Michael Change going there and just talk about the
Speaker 1: eighties exactly. Why didn't they get me. I wouldn't around
Speaker 1: back then. You know, we were around today and any
Speaker 1: sort of notable way, and we're gonna hear you talk
Speaker 1: about the eighties, right, No, So what we're going to
Speaker 1: start out with for the eighties? And I see, I've
Speaker 1: gathered my paper over here. All I need is sharpie
Speaker 1: and you know what's coming? Oh yeah, old holes eighties
Speaker 1: a dish boom. I thought I had done this before,
Speaker 1: have I? But I asked on the movie Crushers page uh,
Speaker 1: and they said, no, not eighties specific. Yeah, no, I
Speaker 1: don't think you. Oh that was such a delicate, pretty
Speaker 1: good right, you caught it. It's on the wrist um,
Speaker 1: all right. No, I'm ready. You were handicapped a bit
Speaker 1: because I know that you're of a man of the nineties. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was born in nineteen hundred and eighty three, so
Speaker 1: I remember the tail end of the eighties, which is
Speaker 1: pretty indistinguishable from the beginning of the nineties. But your
Speaker 1: early movie watching days, you didn't have much eighties in there. No.
Speaker 1: I mean, well, you know that's not entirely true, because
Speaker 1: we probably started movies when you were a lot of
Speaker 1: v I watched a lot of Blockbuster, a lot of
Speaker 1: VHS things. So I watched a lot of things from
Speaker 1: the tail end of the nineties because they kind of
Speaker 1: carried over into my movie watching days, excuse me, the
Speaker 1: tail end of the eighties. But plus, you go back
Speaker 1: and you watch stuff for mother, of course, we'll see
Speaker 1: how you do. And a student of history, I went
Speaker 1: with all kinds of genres and very pretty, kind of
Speaker 1: iconic eighties movies. I think I didn't try and like
Speaker 1: mess you up as usual. Their Breakfast Club and not
Speaker 1: seen it now, not not entirely seen some of that's
Speaker 1: the one they're in detention, right, that is the one
Speaker 1: where they're in detention. Yeah, I've seen some key scenes
Speaker 1: probably on I love the eighties, but I've not seen
Speaker 1: all the way through all right, interesting Fatal Attraction, No seen,
Speaker 1: Basic Instinct. Those are two different movies, I know, but
Speaker 1: they you know, similar number of syllables in the names,
Speaker 1: they have similar types of stories. No Number three Basic Instinct, Yes,
Speaker 1: good job, Uh, No number four just to one of
Speaker 1: the guys, I don't even know what this is. I
Speaker 1: had a feeling on that one, but it is. Uh.
Speaker 1: There are a lot of people out there grinning right
Speaker 1: now because that was one of those teen comedy high
Speaker 1: school teen comedies of the eighties that there were so
Speaker 1: many of. But the cream rose to the top in
Speaker 1: this case. I like cream. I like things that are
Speaker 1: on top. Hey, I don't know, I have nothing to
Speaker 1: add because I haven't seen this movie, so I get
Speaker 1: on top exactly see. Oh my god, bringing it back,
Speaker 1: all right, the old number five movie called flash Dance. Now,
Speaker 1: I just watched that for the first time, nol. I
Speaker 1: will say this though, Chuck. I saw it on the
Speaker 1: shelf at Blockbuster a lot, and I was slightly titillated
Speaker 1: because it looked I thought it was I thought it
Speaker 1: was a dirty movie because the name flash Dance it
Speaker 1: makes me think of, you know, being flashed, like by
Speaker 1: a flasher applying nudity. She doesn't they do not take
Speaker 1: their clothes there dancing, Uh, I guess you would call
Speaker 1: exotic dancers. But they're really tasteful. Yeah, I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: it's like they're doing real dancing up there. What is that?
Speaker 1: I don't know what that is, though, I guess that's
Speaker 1: what they're doing. It's called the fucking flash dance. They
Speaker 1: never address it. They're never like, so this flash dancing
Speaker 1: we're doing it's great? Is it like a flash mob?
Speaker 1: Remember flash mobs? Yeah? I've never been in one, but
Speaker 1: you're aware of flashdance? Is a good movie? Is that
Speaker 1: the one that's got time of Time of my life? No? No,
Speaker 1: No movie that is that from? That's from Dirty Dancing? No.
Speaker 1: Number six, Dirty Dancing. No, I've never seen dancing. Does
Speaker 1: Havanna Knights count? I would give you credit if you
Speaker 1: saw that. I haven't that either. Number seven. I just
Speaker 1: called your bluff. Number seven the great, great Steven Spielberg film.
Speaker 1: Always I am not aware of this as a movie
Speaker 1: that exists in the world. What's your Dreyfuss and Holly
Speaker 1: Hunt Hunter Hunter, Holly Hunt, Holly Hunter, Richard Dreyfuss, John
Speaker 1: Goodman eighties movie, Steven Spielberg, Audrey Hepburn's last role. What
Speaker 1: is it? What is it about? It is great? It
Speaker 1: is romance. It is a movie about a flame jumper,
Speaker 1: like a pilot who dumps, you know, on firefighters, fire firefighters? Fires?
Speaker 1: Was wrong with me? Today forest fires and he and
Speaker 1: this is not a spoiler because it's the whole premise
Speaker 1: of the film. Uh, he dies in an accident, and
Speaker 1: that's Richard dry Fuss, and he is a ghost looking
Speaker 1: after her, uh in the afterlife, and she falls in
Speaker 1: love with a young new pilot and he sort of
Speaker 1: has to either let go or like you know, at first,
Speaker 1: she's trying to prevent that from happening because his heart
Speaker 1: is broken. Very good, so very old Hollywood, big sweeping
Speaker 1: romance kind of thing. Yeah, not even sweeping, because it's
Speaker 1: fairly contained setting wise, but just a big, sweet comedy romance.
Speaker 1: You will not believe who one of the screenwriters was
Speaker 1: among one, two, three, four four. I'm gonna make a
Speaker 1: wild guest because you said I won't believe it, so
Speaker 1: I'm going to say, um, Red Fox Dalton Trumbo was
Speaker 1: blacklisted and the carthid Era or whatever, and there's a
Speaker 1: movie about film exactly. But he was like a classic
Speaker 1: old school Hollywood screenwriter brought him and they brought him
Speaker 1: in the mix. And I guess with all Audrey Hepperd,
Speaker 1: that's why I'm like that old old you know, very
Speaker 1: classic old style of film. I stand by always. I
Speaker 1: cannot believe I've never even heard of this. I'm not
Speaker 1: aware of it at all. No, you're you're getting killed here,
Speaker 1: all right. Emily and I have been the reason we're
Speaker 1: doing this. You know, the eighties is so hot right
Speaker 1: now again red hot. Yeah, And Emily and I've just
Speaker 1: been We're all we don't have a TV show going
Speaker 1: right now, and it's kind of felt like a burden
Speaker 1: to get into a new one. Sure you ever get
Speaker 1: in those moods? Yes, So I'm like, let's just watch
Speaker 1: faval Attraction again, or let's watch just one of the guys,
Speaker 1: Fatal Attractions one with Glenn Close, right, Yeah, so good.
Speaker 1: We watched Jagget Edge the other night too. Gosh, I
Speaker 1: don't know that one. Jeff Bridges and Glenn Close, alright. No,
Speaker 1: Number eight Turner and Hooch, No, big, big, big No.
Speaker 1: He's just shaking his head at this point. Everyone. No.
Speaker 1: Number nine to Live and Die in l A. Nope,
Speaker 1: you would love that. I know we've talked about that before.
Speaker 1: Casey Pegram loves it. We've talked about it multiple times.
Speaker 1: Number ten Blue Thunder, No, is that a helicopter movie?
Speaker 1: I only know about that because I know what it
Speaker 1: was on How Did This Get Made? Which is uh
Speaker 1: Paul Shs Bad Movie Podcast, which we I think we
Speaker 1: both enjoy very much. They did an episode on Jaws
Speaker 1: three D. Yeah, yeah, and it's you know, awful obviously,
Speaker 1: and uh, Roy Scheider is not in it, right he
Speaker 1: was in the second Jaws because he was I believe
Speaker 1: contractually obligated to do it. But I believe he got
Speaker 1: out of being in three because he was in Blue Thunder.
Speaker 1: And it's about sort of a futuristic helicopter right, like
Speaker 1: very advanced to the testing it out ends up being
Speaker 1: and are the Russians involved? I don't know what happens.
Speaker 1: It sounds cool now I want to see. I love
Speaker 1: Roy and who else is in it? Who's whos opposite him?
Speaker 1: If someone else? Pretty fair? The bad guy is Malcolm McDowell, Yes,
Speaker 1: oh gosh, he's a great bat and um, Daniel Stern
Speaker 1: is the young kid. He was like one of the
Speaker 1: wet bandits from Home Alone, one of the wet band
Speaker 1: who my brother worked with on Uh City Slickers too,
Speaker 1: and he was That was the best experience of that movie.
Speaker 1: Was Daniel Stern? Nice? Just the best guy? He said,
Speaker 1: that's cool. He's really really good dude, he's he is
Speaker 1: with us still? Yes, okay, you know he's not a
Speaker 1: nice guy, Billy Crystal. Oh, I can imagine, all right?
Speaker 1: Number or eleven? Am I? Zero? No? You got one?
Speaker 1: Which one? Did I get? You saw? Basically, well, you're
Speaker 1: getting killed. I don't even know if this is. This
Speaker 1: is You're gonna be your first big loss. That's fine,
Speaker 1: I'm into it. Number eleven license to drive, uh Cory,
Speaker 1: same as licensed to kill? No, Corey Hayme, I haven't
Speaker 1: seen it. Or Corey uh Feldman, Corey Haim one of
Speaker 1: the corries. Yeah, ten to one. We'll just keep going
Speaker 1: here anyway, of course we should. I want to know.
Speaker 1: I want to know. Number twelve airplane too, Yes? Is
Speaker 1: that the one where they No, I don't know if
Speaker 1: I've seen two. I've definitely seen one. You know, I'm
Speaker 1: pretty sure i've seen two because when I was a kid,
Speaker 1: those were like comedies that were kind of raunchy, but
Speaker 1: they were like PG but they probably should have been
Speaker 1: PG thirteen. PG thirteen didn't exist, So I remember watching
Speaker 1: those when I was a kid because they were kind
Speaker 1: of naughty even though they were like accessible. Pretty sure
Speaker 1: I have check that was the one where it was
Speaker 1: a I think it was like a space shuttle instead
Speaker 1: of a plane. I don't know if I have chuck,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give it to you cool. I think that
Speaker 1: might be a pity point, but that's fine. I'll take it.
Speaker 1: Number thirteen Adventures in Babysitting, No, the great, great film
Speaker 1: with Elizabeth Shoe. It's a babysitter and her wild eyed
Speaker 1: out with children in tow M M good movie. Number fourteen, No,
Speaker 1: I think you've seen this one at Risky Business. That
Speaker 1: the is that the one with the pool pool pool sharking.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking the Color of Money. No, there's a sequel
Speaker 1: to the Color of Money that Tom Cruises in where
Speaker 1: he plays pool. That's supposed to be really good. But
Speaker 1: I haven't seen Risky Business. Now, I haven't seen Risky Business.
Speaker 1: What's the deal with Risky Business? Tom Cruise parents are
Speaker 1: out its own for the weekends where he's slides in
Speaker 1: his underwear across his sex workers come over and to
Speaker 1: make money for I think college. But he does slide
Speaker 1: in his tidy whitey's in his socks across the across
Speaker 1: the floor. Iconic scene. I've seen that Rebecca de Mornay. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know what to say, Lady Hawk. That's the
Speaker 1: one with the lady in the hawk Shellfife for Lady
Speaker 1: Hawk is it's a fantasatty. It's a fantasy, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: fantasy medieval time type of thing, you know. I heard. No,
Speaker 1: I haven't seen it, but I heard something really interesting
Speaker 1: about that. I can't rememb where I heard this. It
Speaker 1: was on some podcast, but it was it was I
Speaker 1: believe it was shot in Italy or it was like
Speaker 1: the director was a talent. No, it wasn't. The director
Speaker 1: was Tony Scott. Wasn't it wasn't there Scott. I'm pretty sure. Um,
Speaker 1: hang on. But the point is they shot it somewhere overseas.
Speaker 1: I think you're thinking of Legend by Ridley Scott. No,
Speaker 1: i'm not. Lady Hawk movie was directed by I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: Richard Donner, who did the Superman movie. But the thing
Speaker 1: that I heard was they filmed it in Italy and
Speaker 1: the cruise in Italy because typically Italian movies are dubbed.
Speaker 1: Even all the dialogue is like dubbed afterwards. They won't
Speaker 1: be quiet when you shout rolling action or whatever. And
Speaker 1: it was making him insane. And I must have heard
Speaker 1: this as well on how did this get made? Interest?
Speaker 1: That's the only movie podcast I listened to. But that
Speaker 1: was interesting for s Number sixteen Old War Games. No,
Speaker 1: who's in that? Matthew Broderick? Yeah, sorry, I didn't know that.

Speaker 1: a burger place? Right? Uh? Isn't there a weird claimation
Speaker 1: series with Van Halen's Everybody Wants? That was a very
Speaker 1: odd scene. And isn't his like he's got a buddy
Speaker 1: sort of like this grotesque like weird little trolley kind
Speaker 1: of toady guy. Yeah? Did he have? Yeah? That's a
Speaker 1: booger from Revenge of the Nurse And for Moonlighting. Yes,

Speaker 1: girlfriend for a little while and then he gets vaulted
Speaker 1: into popular dum and it goes to his head and
Speaker 1: she ended up falling in love with him for real.
Speaker 1: Z's what do you think? But you can buy love?
Speaker 1: In that movie? Ye seems that way. It seems like
Speaker 1: a mixed message and they're sending, all right, now we're
Speaker 1: gonna go with the social studies, next social studies. I
Speaker 1: just very simply asked everyone what their favorite eighties comedy
Speaker 1: was pretty simple, right, And we got four hundred and
Speaker 1: eleven comments and all, and I'm just gonna mow through.
Speaker 1: These are Catherine Bryniac says Princess Bride, Alison Couch, our
Speaker 1: old friends is raising Arizona. Keith Hannons is better off dead.

Speaker 1: little spaceship inside dude's head. Dylan Nichols says, Uncle Buck.
Speaker 1: That was in the eighties. He little McAuley Culkin was
Speaker 1: in that right, little that I have seen that. Maybe
Speaker 1: you should just say whether you've seen or not so
Speaker 1: we can further explore your whole I think that's fair.
Speaker 1: Our old pal Kevin Herbond says three Amigos, Nope, oh,
Speaker 1: J m Arroyo or old Palace says Ferris Bueller's Day

Speaker 1: Genius or Trading Places. I've seen trading places, don't know
Speaker 1: real genius. Reese Cousin's as Blues brothers. Our old friend
Speaker 1: Dan True Bodies says, spinal tap easily. That's that's one
Speaker 1: of my favorite comedies of all time. Yeah, I knew
Speaker 1: you had seen that Christmas vacation that comes from Melanie Dickie. Right.
Speaker 1: I tried watching Vegas Vacation on a plane. I didn't
Speaker 1: think it was very funny. Vegas Vacation is not pretty funny. Okay,
Speaker 1: you were correct, just making sure. Yeah, yeah, it was
Speaker 1: European vacation. It was okay, it's really just the original
Speaker 1: Christmas vacations pretty good, got it. There's really just those
Speaker 1: three that are even passable. Was Vegas Vacation newer? Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: kind of later. I'm sorry. I saw the original vacation
Speaker 1: and didn't think it was that funny. Oh wow, really yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know, like there's something about the style of
Speaker 1: humor just didn't quite There was parts that I thought
Speaker 1: was funny, but I just found myself kind of getting
Speaker 1: like out of it, and it's like, not, you may
Speaker 1: not like Chevy Chase. I guess I don't. Maybe I don't.
Speaker 1: It's possible that when he falls down a lot, I
Speaker 1: don't think you like Chevy. James Fletch would let you
Speaker 1: know for sure. Now, then I tell you that my
Speaker 1: mom was in a Chevy Chase movie called Foul Play
Speaker 1: with him and Goldie Hawn, and she's in the pace
Speaker 1: and the opera scene at the end, she's in the
Speaker 1: great I actually quite enjoyed that movie. Um, but maybe
Speaker 1: it was because my mom was in it. Well, that's also,
Speaker 1: um that Neil Simon sort of early Chevy Chase. He
Speaker 1: had a couple of movies with him that was less
Speaker 1: Chevy Chase like because it was Neil Simon. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: enjoyed really good in those movies. I think, uh. Back
Speaker 1: to the Future, of course, from Brett Giles, I love it.
Speaker 1: Our old friend carry Armour, says Bucker Bucker. Rubon's I
Speaker 1: across the eighth to mention, I have not seen this,
Speaker 1: isn't that Peter Weller, Yeah, Mr RoboCop himself. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: would like that, nol. Jonathan Gerber's is Back to the Future,
Speaker 1: of course, followed by Ferris Spieler's Day Off our old
Speaker 1: Pal Karen Schlump Hugh says Caddy Shack. You didn't like
Speaker 1: Catty Shack either, right, I thought it was funny. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: it was funny, I thought. I remember you're saying you
Speaker 1: didn't quite like It's just I mean, it's it's not
Speaker 1: my favorite thing in the whole wide world, but there
Speaker 1: are things that are funny about. I think that's a
Speaker 1: generational thing too. I think dudes, my aids love Caddy Scheck,
Speaker 1: and younger people are a little bit more like really,
Speaker 1: I also like, I saw Animal House, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: it's perfectly funny. It's fine, but it's not like uproariously
Speaker 1: hilarious to me. And I just didn't didn't find myself
Speaker 1: be like, oh god, that was a good movie. I
Speaker 1: gotta watch that again, you know, certainly compared to like, well,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do that. No, I don't want to
Speaker 1: get in trouble. Rachel Jones says the I'm sorry, Rochelle
Speaker 1: Jones says The Goonies even went to visit a story
Speaker 1: of Oregon where it was filmed, and I'm from Australia. Wow,
Speaker 1: the Goonies is genuinely funny and it's an adventure. It's
Speaker 1: got great characters, Like it's not what's the wronging for,
Speaker 1: it's not cynical, it's got this adventure spirit kind of
Speaker 1: and it's physical comedies great, like everything about it. To
Speaker 1: be a kid when that movie came out, like, uh,
Speaker 1: the adventure aspect of it, Like that's all every kid
Speaker 1: ever wanted to do was go on some adventure looking
Speaker 1: for pirate Tredgure. I tried watching it with my kid
Speaker 1: a year or so ago. I did not realize how
Speaker 1: kind of raunchy it is. Like the language of these
Speaker 1: kids talking a little bit. They talked about a lot
Speaker 1: of sex stuff. Yeah, there's some stuff here, and there's
Speaker 1: some stuff that I was like, But now my kid
Speaker 1: is just obsessed with stranger things. She understands the connection
Speaker 1: and she gets all of those old eighties kind of
Speaker 1: movie trumps, and I think it's kind of neat. You know,
Speaker 1: what's old is new again and all that. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: the circle of life. That's how it happens. Jimmy Mallory
Speaker 1: Old Friends has real genius. Another vote for that one.
Speaker 1: That's interesting. Uh. Matt Hoseley says Ghostbusters, Dana Augustason says
Speaker 1: Princess Bride, and Ferris Bueller interesting. I'm looking for something.
Speaker 1: I wonder when someone's going to chime in with, like
Speaker 1: something that doesn't feel like an eighties movie but it
Speaker 1: was in the eighties, like Absence of Malice or something
Speaker 1: like a serious film. No one's naming any serious films
Speaker 1: and all Real Genius with valc Elmer. Yeah, that was
Speaker 1: a good movie, and I'm not familiar. But again, a
Speaker 1: lot of these are good and then eighties sensibility, like
Speaker 1: when I watched them, now it's largely nostalgic. Can't Buy
Speaker 1: Me Love isn't some great, great film, but it's a
Speaker 1: good little eighties team comedy, you know. I guess that's
Speaker 1: my thing with a lot of the movies that you picked.
Speaker 1: They all seem very quintessentially like eighties like time, Whereas
Speaker 1: the movies that I'd like from the eighties, we're just
Speaker 1: movies that happened to come out stand the test of time. Chuck,
Speaker 1: I think that's I'm not being us now. And is
Speaker 1: telling you why my is in that shape, in that
Speaker 1: particular shape. Okay, one a nieto, Welcome to the club. One.
Speaker 1: I don't think we've seen you yet. Bill and Ted
Speaker 1: and then Scrooged. Scrooge is funny, I think. I think
Speaker 1: Scrooge holds up. I think that, yeah, Scrooge holds up here.
Speaker 1: Here's my dirty secret. I didn't think Bill and Ted's
Speaker 1: is that great. I liked it, Okay, no, it's I mean,
Speaker 1: I liked it, but I was never like, I was
Speaker 1: not one of those guys who really really like lost
Speaker 1: their mind over that movie. Here's the buy in. The
Speaker 1: buy in is these two stoner bros doing some space
Speaker 1: time travel ship and that's it. It's like, what a
Speaker 1: wacky concept, you know. Like, But the movie, the dialogue,
Speaker 1: everything about it itself is not very good. And the
Speaker 1: second one came out when I was younger and it
Speaker 1: was in theaters and I had not seen the original.
Speaker 1: But it was like the Bogus Journey or whatever. I
Speaker 1: think the Bogus Journey is actually funnier really than the
Speaker 1: Excellent Adventure. I don't remember which one I thought was funnier.
Speaker 1: I was pretty into it though, come to think of it.
Speaker 1: I just I don't know. Maybe it was an age
Speaker 1: thing and then doing another one. Yeah, And when I
Speaker 1: heard about that, I was like cool, but I wasn't like,
Speaker 1: oh my god. Of course finally, like everyone's been screaming
Speaker 1: about it. Alex Winter, who plays the one that is
Speaker 1: not Keiana Reeves, he's a conspiracy guy. He made a
Speaker 1: documentary about the dread pirate Roberts, who was this like
Speaker 1: big he had the Silk Road Dark Web drug smuggling
Speaker 1: or illegal stuff smuggling ring. And he did a documentary
Speaker 1: about him, and we had him on stuff they don't
Speaker 1: want you to know. He was really nice. He paused
Speaker 1: the interview for a second so he could eat his
Speaker 1: hot pocket. That is my memory of that interview. Where
Speaker 1: did you interview him on the phone he was at
Speaker 1: as he was just look at his house. I was like,
Speaker 1: did he bring it? We heard the ding and then
Speaker 1: he was excuse me, guys, I gotta I gotta eat
Speaker 1: my hot pocket real quick. Do you think that's a joke? No?
Speaker 1: I heard the ding. Yeah, But do you think he's
Speaker 1: joking about it being a hot pocket? No? I think
Speaker 1: it was a hot pocket because that would be a
Speaker 1: pretty funny bit. It's like whenever he's on a business call. Yeah,
Speaker 1: just just just the situation has a power move pocket.
Speaker 1: That's funny. I would do that. I didn't think about that.
Speaker 1: It could be even steal that all right, Barry King
Speaker 1: old friend says the money pit and overboard money pits,
Speaker 1: the one about the house that saw falling apart? Right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a pretty fun movie, is that Tom Hanks and
Speaker 1: uh Diane from Cheers, Shelly Long. Yeah, I don't think
Speaker 1: I've seen that one all the way through, but I
Speaker 1: definitely know enough about it to know that I've seen
Speaker 1: parts of it. Yeah, the eighties is great because you
Speaker 1: like Shelley Long was a leading lady, you know, and
Speaker 1: today that would be like Megan Fox. Now you're Megan Fox.
Speaker 1: There certainly some like girl ne store types in Hollywood
Speaker 1: these days, but it feels like everybody now that it
Speaker 1: just has to be so uber attractive. I guess so.
Speaker 1: But I also I do feel like we're going we're
Speaker 1: entering into a period even with pop music, where massive
Speaker 1: over sexualization of women is starting to fall away a
Speaker 1: little bit. Whether it's a product of like, you know,
Speaker 1: the me Too movement and like people being taken the
Speaker 1: task for all this shitty behavior. But like, my kid
Speaker 1: is really into this pop artist Billie Eilish who wears
Speaker 1: really big baggy you know what. Some might say I'm
Speaker 1: becoming closed, but she's like, I do it so you
Speaker 1: can't over sexualize me if you can't see my body.
Speaker 1: And I think the fact that my kid is into
Speaker 1: someone who's a fashion icon like that rather than like
Speaker 1: a fucking Britney Spears or something like that, is a
Speaker 1: big deal. And I've seen that in movies too. You've
Speaker 1: got like Melissa McCarthy is a meeting lady and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, oscar bait type of So I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think I sort of I want to rephrase my
Speaker 1: statement that was very much Hollywood like five years and
Speaker 1: be yeah, but it's only just seeing it happen. But
Speaker 1: it is happening now that the wine Steins of the
Speaker 1: world have finally been exposed openly as being the ship
Speaker 1: bags that they are. You know, that's right. No, I
Speaker 1: like that little soapbox moment. No, you know, our friend
Speaker 1: Jason Loeps is National Lampunt's vacation and then let's just
Speaker 1: finish it off with Okay, here we go. Here's a
Speaker 1: different one. Tracy Miller who framed Roger Rabbit Rabbit, rare bit,
Speaker 1: rare bit, rare bit. That's uh English rare bit. That's
Speaker 1: the thing that's the breakfast food that dude likes in
Speaker 1: Phantom Thread. Roger Rarebit. That's a good one. That one's
Speaker 1: that's a weird one. Man. I saw when I was
Speaker 1: a kid, and I was kind of disturbed by it.
Speaker 1: It's got a lot of weird sexual, cartoony stuff with
Speaker 1: Jessica rare Bit, you know, and you know what all,
Speaker 1: I've never seen that movie all the way through it
Speaker 1: really yeah, oh my god, it is one of my
Speaker 1: big holes. Has a rare Bit shaped hole right there,
Speaker 1: my friends. Um, yeah, there's a whole thing with Judge
Speaker 1: Doom like that's played by Christopher Lloyd. He melts into
Speaker 1: a puddle of slime in the end, and like there's
Speaker 1: like toxic waste and crazy weird ship man. The psychedelic
Speaker 1: not psychedelic, yeah, a little bit psychedelic. It almost reminds
Speaker 1: me of that Ralph Backshee stuff, you know, where it's
Speaker 1: like create creepy babies that talk like old grizzled detectives
Speaker 1: and smoke cigars and ship you know, it's that kind
Speaker 1: of thing. I remember seeing that when I was a kid.
Speaker 1: It's cool, It's it's interesting because it's definitely you know,
Speaker 1: it was hard to make a movie like that where
Speaker 1: you mix live action with cartoons and you have at work,
Speaker 1: and that one really kind of does. Yeah, yeah, classic.
Speaker 1: Why I didn't see it? What was in Sino Man.
Speaker 1: That was in the eighties. That was the early nineties,
Speaker 1: I think it was that feels like a ninety a
Speaker 1: movie caught between eras doesn't know what it is. The
Speaker 1: reason I bring that up as I absolutely saw in
Speaker 1: Sino Man in the theaters. I never saw that two. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I never saw that. I never saw any of the
Speaker 1: poly Shore movies. You know. The Man was kind of
Speaker 1: the first one, I believe. Yeah, okay, that's when where
Speaker 1: he goes weezen the jit. I just remember Brendan Fraser
Speaker 1: was in Cino Man. He was in Sino Man, which
Speaker 1: was like he was like a what do you call it?
Speaker 1: Which is this is actually kind of very much a
Speaker 1: carry over eighties type of movie concept. He's a caveman
Speaker 1: hanging out in modern day in Sino California, going to
Speaker 1: the mall and skateboarding and shouldn't trying to figure out exactly? Yeah,
Speaker 1: very much. So have you seen teen Wolf? I have
Speaker 1: seen teen Wolf. I've seen teen Wolf two as well.
Speaker 1: Oh interesting, alright, I think we should just wrap it up.
Speaker 1: Nolan spanking on the bottom. I think it's fine and
Speaker 1: send this one out into internetly. I'm ready to crush
Speaker 1: some judgments. Let's do it, all right, Let's see you
