Speaker 1: maybe three years ago when I was in LA when
Speaker 1: I was doing comedy out here, and you don't remember
Speaker 1: meeting me, which I've taken in in my stride. But
Speaker 1: you did a routine that was so funny that when
Speaker 1: I did finally do a gig with you recently, I
Speaker 1: told you the routine. You'd forgotten it, I said, please
Speaker 1: do it again. You did it absolutely took the roof off. Well.
Speaker 1: That thank you so much. That was so that was
Speaker 1: so nice of you, because I was It's funny because
Speaker 1: you know when you meet or I don't know about you.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm like judgmental and a curmudgeon, right, So
Speaker 1: whenever I see a comic where it's like, oh, you're
Speaker 1: famous from TV, but you do stand up, I'm always like,
Speaker 1: do you do stand up? Or is it just something
Speaker 1: that people let you do now because you're famous? You
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like I said, will make a
Speaker 1: waste fantaistion exactly when I heard see a white man thriving,
Speaker 1: I'm always giving it side eye. So initially I was like, Okay,
Speaker 1: what's he going to be about? But then you introduce
Speaker 1: yourself and you like quoted one of my jokes, and
Speaker 1: then I was like, I love you, You're sweet, Thank
Speaker 1: you so much. I've always been a fan. I've always
Speaker 1: good by everything you've done all of its stand right
Speaker 1: by it. Thank you, hey, thank you. Now you're doing
Speaker 1: many things, and one thing you do that is fascinating
Speaker 1: to me is you have a podcast sometimes a live
Speaker 1: show with you and your husband where you explain please.
Speaker 1: It is called couples Therapy. And on the live show
Speaker 1: we would have stand ups who were close couple siblings,
Speaker 1: like people who go on the road together, xes do
Speaker 1: sets together their friendship and that's always a good time.
Speaker 1: And then in the pandemic we pivoted and now we
Speaker 1: have guests on and we answer relationship questions. You know,
Speaker 1: people call in, they write in, and we just we
Speaker 1: handle it. Honey. We're here to help you handle your scandal.
Speaker 1: That's how I feel. I am ready for you. I
Speaker 1: am a broke ass like budget Oprah, Okay, because I
Speaker 1: have opinions and I will tell you what you should
Speaker 1: do even though I don't know nothing. Well that's perfect,
Speaker 1: I know. So you in the show Mystic Pizza Wow, Okay,
Speaker 1: well okay, that was a power move on your part. Okay. Um.
Speaker 1: It is called Mythic Quest Okay, And it's on the channel.
Speaker 1: It's on the channel that shoe show is on. But
Speaker 1: everybody be talking about shoe show because they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: ain't that gentle, ain't that soccer? But then we out
Speaker 1: here talk about video games on Mythic Queste. I know
Speaker 1: it's I was bigger, cheeky boy, I was big. I
Speaker 1: like it. Yeah, people mess it up all the time
Speaker 1: and like someone even like I love you on Epic
Speaker 1: quest and then it was like, okay, like I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna I'm like, you're trying to give me a compliment,
Speaker 1: so I'm definitely not gonna correct to you. You're watching
Speaker 1: it listen, and for the record, I actually feel not
Speaker 1: very noted having done that. It's a fucking great show.
Speaker 1: You're phenomenal. It's a phenomenal show. I know the the
Speaker 1: the head writer show show writer creates it and she's
Speaker 1: amazing and it's fucking brilliant. That s and so sweet.
Speaker 1: You're just a real you're a man today. You're in
Speaker 1: top form today, Brett, Well, thank you so much. And
Speaker 1: you started out on broad City correct as a writer. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like so my very first job, I was a writer's
Speaker 1: assistant on Broad City season one and then season two
Speaker 1: I got the bump up to staff writer and that's
Speaker 1: sort that's what started my my TV writing career entirely
Speaker 1: Riddle me this. Did you get the bump to stuff right?
Speaker 1: As in that was just the way the thing worked?
Speaker 1: Or were you like just occasionally saying something that was
Speaker 1: so funny? They were like, we need to how did
Speaker 1: that work? You know, it's funny because they they brought
Speaker 1: me in the season had already started when they brought
Speaker 1: me into staff, right, so it wasn't like am It
Speaker 1: wasn't like just the next thing that was going to happen.
Speaker 1: I think they felt like, you know, they knew me
Speaker 1: as a stand up. You know, they knew I was funny,
Speaker 1: and so they decided to take a take a chance,
Speaker 1: you know, take a chance and a noon kid. You know,
Speaker 1: also no big deal. But you know there was a
Speaker 1: time where, you know, brown people were cheaper. Would be like, well,
Speaker 1: we'll subsidize a couple of them, a couple of these.
Speaker 1: So I was like a little like just start whenever,
Speaker 1: get you in the door, you know. But yeah, so
Speaker 1: you were very well paid, and they said, fuck it,
Speaker 1: we could afford it. Let's have it. Yeah yeah, but
Speaker 1: you stayed on forever. I stayed, I did. I worked
Speaker 1: on season three as well, and then um I stopped
Speaker 1: because I was just like I was like trying to
Speaker 1: do other stuff and writing and developing, you know, but
Speaker 1: of course Near and Tear of my heart those girls
Speaker 1: that show. As a born and raised New Yorker, it
Speaker 1: spoke to me on many levels. I mean, it's a yeah,
Speaker 1: what's the word. It's it's one of them. What's the word?
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Broad City is one of them?
Speaker 1: Like you know what I mean? Yes, stunding and changing
Speaker 1: the game, game change, a game change. Yeah, it's a reference.
Speaker 1: It's a reference. It's one your people going to pitch
Speaker 1: meetings and they'll go, could it be a bit more
Speaker 1: like broad City? One of them? Yea. So it's like
Speaker 1: broad City but with men, you know, of broad City
Speaker 1: with adults, broad City in a school, broad City in
Speaker 1: a police precinct. Yeah, exactly. That's how we pitched Ted Lesser.
Speaker 1: It was like broad City but mostly men and football.
Speaker 1: And they're like, sounds good sounds good name. Yes, shit, fuck,
Speaker 1: I've forgotten to tell you something. Oh boy, oh boy,
Speaker 1: boy boy, what a mess I forgot. I should have
Speaker 1: told you right at the top. I'll just I'll just
Speaker 1: say it, I'll say it, we'll we'll we'll make of
Speaker 1: it what we were. I guess you've died. You are dead, Okay,
Speaker 1: wait to rip off the band aid? Thank you? Yeah you? Okay, Well,
Speaker 1: I mean you're dead. Did how did you die? Oh?
Speaker 1: Let me see. I probably died due to complications from
Speaker 1: type two diabetes that I did not take care of
Speaker 1: in my old age because I eat my feelings and
Speaker 1: don't value my body enough to really be healthy. Okay,
Speaker 1: just just before you commit to that, yeah, bear in
Speaker 1: mind you you're choosing. You're getting to choose how you die.
Speaker 1: But if that's that's your dream death, then our dream death,
Speaker 1: I mean, okay, my dream death is don't let me,
Speaker 1: don't let me, you know, influence you. But if you
Speaker 1: want it to be from tattoo diabetes, in your own ease, Okay, Look,
Speaker 1: that is just the truth and probably what's going to
Speaker 1: happen if I keep on this slippery slope of ordering delivery.
Speaker 1: But if I had my druthers, I mean I would
Speaker 1: die of I would choke. I would choke on a
Speaker 1: piece of food and I would go quickly. You'd go
Speaker 1: Mama Cass, Mama Cass style, go Mama Caste style. Okay,
Speaker 1: do you want to choose the piece of food you choked,
Speaker 1: Mama Castyle. Probably deep dish pizza that can get real thick.
Speaker 1: M okay, so hang on you you were just eating,
Speaker 1: like eating the crust and it got like caught in
Speaker 1: your throat. I was taken. I was the whole, you know,
Speaker 1: taking a bite at the top of the deep dips,
Speaker 1: not the crust, the deep dish. You know, it's like
Speaker 1: two three inches thick. You got the cheese, you got
Speaker 1: the meat, you got the mushroom, you got the tomato.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm eating, a pepperoni mushroom and too big
Speaker 1: of a bite, some of that cheese gets caught. Mama Cass.
Speaker 1: Did you not want me to have that answer so
Speaker 1: quickly exactly what my meal would be? Both they both
Speaker 1: similar answers. What do you worry about death? I do?
Speaker 1: Interestingly enough, you're talking to me now, like four days
Speaker 1: after my birthday and coming off of the last things
Speaker 1: after the last like two years, I've been really thinking
Speaker 1: about death in the way that I never did before.
Speaker 1: You know, a global pandemic will do that to you.
Speaker 1: But normally I would just see myself as like, okay,
Speaker 1: you aged, But now I've been thinking of it consciously
Speaker 1: as you are one year closer to death, and that's
Speaker 1: not something I like. I don't. I don't like this
Speaker 1: change in me. How has it affected Has it made
Speaker 1: you go, I've got to do more stuff, or I've
Speaker 1: got or is it just a general sense of panic?
Speaker 1: Both so, meaning it dips in and out of I
Speaker 1: gotta do more stuff. There's a general panic, and then
Speaker 1: sometimes it'll be like get this done, finish this, don't
Speaker 1: worry about this. You know, XYS is like you literally
Speaker 1: don't have time, so you know, it just kind of
Speaker 1: depends on how active I want to be in my anxiety.
Speaker 1: And there's no part of you. I mean, listen, I'm
Speaker 1: not I'm not saying. What I'm saying is I'm not
Speaker 1: saying I have this. But the flip side of it
Speaker 1: is perhaps for some people less anxiety because you go, well,
Speaker 1: I'll be dead one day. Well I'm I worrying about this.
Speaker 1: I'll be dead soon. M I get that. I have
Speaker 1: that sometimes too, but that doesn't but that doesn't make
Speaker 1: me care free. It just makes me make poor choices.
Speaker 1: I mean. So that's why I'm like, you know, if
Speaker 1: there is something that kind of galvanized me in a
Speaker 1: positive way. I'd be all for it. But that's not
Speaker 1: that's not my that's not how I work, you know what.
Speaker 1: You know what's interesting. I'm not going to name them.
Speaker 1: There is an artist. I will not name them. There
Speaker 1: is an artist. Let's just say that artist I know, well,
Speaker 1: not know, I mean a famous person that makes stuff.
Speaker 1: And they made really good stuff. And then one day
Speaker 1: I heard them an interview talk about legacy and say,
Speaker 1: I don't care about legacy anymore. You know, when I'm dead,
Speaker 1: I'm dead, it doesn't matter what's behind because I'll be gone.
Speaker 1: And since that I read that interview, all of their
Speaker 1: stuff has been ship and I'm like, oh, yeah, I
Speaker 1: guess if you don't, if you just go, it doesn't
Speaker 1: matter because I'm not gonna be around to see, do
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? But I also think it
Speaker 1: unfroze that person. And they ended up making a lot
Speaker 1: more stuff, which probably means they had more fun in
Speaker 1: their life rather than being like everything has to be perfect,
Speaker 1: but equally it was. There was a noticeable dip. But
Speaker 1: if they're having fun, I say, blessed, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean? Yeah? Yeah, no, I agree. There's nothing that
Speaker 1: I envy more than's somebody who is mediocre and just
Speaker 1: out there, you know what I mean. I'm like, God,
Speaker 1: I wish I could just come out there just half baked,
Speaker 1: half fast, don't know what's up, but just really acting
Speaker 1: like I'm somebody. Oh that's it's a real. It's a
Speaker 1: really wonderful thing to see. And also it's sort of worked. Look,
Speaker 1: you're in You're in Hollywood. You see it all the time.
Speaker 1: This place is built on confident people telling you everything's
Speaker 1: brilliant and you and and sometimes you believe it because
Speaker 1: you just go, well, they're saying it must be true.
Speaker 1: So if you come out stage and go like I
Speaker 1: am the best, you're like, this guy is good. This
Speaker 1: guy must be good because he just said confidently he
Speaker 1: was the best, with his arms outstretched like a christ figure.
Speaker 1: He must speak correct, he must see fascinating. Well, unfortunately,
Speaker 1: it seems to be the reason that you're good. Now
Speaker 1: to me, it's because you probably don't fully believe it
Speaker 1: or something and you worry. Oh yeah, you need you need,
Speaker 1: you need at least one you need at least a
Speaker 1: base of self loathing, you know what I mean. The
Speaker 1: base coat's got to be self loathing, then you can
Speaker 1: put other stuff on top. But if you don't have
Speaker 1: that strong foundation of stupid, stupid, stupid, I don't know
Speaker 1: what keeps you in it, what keeps you in it?
Speaker 1: I do agree, I do agree. I don't trust people
Speaker 1: that don't hate themselves. Oh my god. Yes, Okay, Look,
Speaker 1: if you have never had like suicidal ideation, I can't
Speaker 1: funk with you. Okay. I'm not even saying you had
Speaker 1: to try, but you had to have a moment where
Speaker 1: you thought, you know what, maybe I should check out.
Speaker 1: And if you've never had that moment, we will never
Speaker 1: be close close, you know what I'm saying. Like we
Speaker 1: could talk, but we ain't never gonna have a soul connection.
Speaker 1: That's just a fact. Yeah, I'll sit next to you
Speaker 1: a wedding. We'll get through the meal. But I'm not
Speaker 1: done sin. Absolutely Like we're not exchanging numbers. We're not
Speaker 1: exchanging numbers, absolutely not. Don't text me, you know, like
Speaker 1: who you could I meet people like that. I do
Speaker 1: think there are a lot of people in Los Angeles
Speaker 1: in particular, who are like somebody told them they were
Speaker 1: enough at a formative age and they're just out. I'm
Speaker 1: like I'm like, wow, black an extraordinary thing to tell someone.
Speaker 1: Also do as if also well, but serious but serious question.
Speaker 1: There is a part of me like, as much as
Speaker 1: I think, I've been challenged with this, and I challenge
Speaker 1: you to it. I challenge you to a duel. The
Speaker 1: question is yes, self hey, doubt, negative self image, etc.
Speaker 1: On the other hand, you are doing what you are doing,
Speaker 1: so somewhere in you is also a competing belief that
Speaker 1: says I'm good at this, or I should do this
Speaker 1: or something. How can you explain this dichotomy? Yeah, I
Speaker 1: said it. You said it, and I heard it. And
Speaker 1: here's what I will say. I think of myself as
Speaker 1: confidently not confident, and I say that in a way
Speaker 1: that is a step actually better than before, because what
Speaker 1: I've gotten rid of is the shame about feeling a
Speaker 1: certain way, you know what I mean? And I think
Speaker 1: that what I kind of feel like is what I
Speaker 1: learned early on was that, oh, the more honest I was,
Speaker 1: the more people laughed, the more people came up to
Speaker 1: me after shows telling me their issues or like where
Speaker 1: they're like, oh my god, yes. And that's what I liked.
Speaker 1: I realized trying to come up there and act like
Speaker 1: I was so cool and detached or something which wasn't
Speaker 1: even true. Was just way more work than just being like,
Speaker 1: you know, have you ever eaten a half pound cookie
Speaker 1: and felt like you hate fucked it? Be honest, okay,
Speaker 1: be honest about having too much talk about it with
Speaker 1: the room, because once you do that, you remove some
Speaker 1: of that like shame that makes you feel like monster.
Speaker 1: It's more like I'm a person, honey, I'm trying a
Speaker 1: dang best. What do you What do you think happens
Speaker 1: after you die? I think you're just in the ground.
Speaker 1: I think you're in the ground. I think you decompose.
Speaker 1: Really nothing, so no, no, no worries about the old
Speaker 1: legacy then no, or rather like I'm not looking right
Speaker 1: like I'm not like looking down or up depending on
Speaker 1: how I do. I'm not looking to see like what
Speaker 1: people have thought. No, no, no, no no, no, Okay. If
Speaker 1: I'm lucky, I'm a ghost, are you a ghost? If
Speaker 1: I'm lucky, I get to haunt someone, So it's a possibility, possibility,
Speaker 1: But I don't. I don't. I don't think that that's
Speaker 1: just like what happens, like, I don't think we all
Speaker 1: die and are just spirits, just floating. Oh you think
Speaker 1: just some some some lucky for you. Yeah, And what
Speaker 1: qualifies you to be a ghost? I think a lot
Speaker 1: of unfinished business and a lot of hate in your
Speaker 1: heart when you go. So if you win, like, oh
Speaker 1: I'm a ghost, it's like, yeah, you fucked up kind
Speaker 1: of Yeah, it's not great that you're a ghost. Actually
Speaker 1: it means you've really got a lot of anger and
Speaker 1: unresolved shit. And you're like, where all my friends And
Speaker 1: they're like, oh no, they're dead. They're in the ground, right,
Speaker 1: They're fine, they were fine. So we we've left them,
Speaker 1: and you're like, well, who do I get to hang
Speaker 1: out with all the other really angry guys? Exactly exactly right, okay?
Speaker 1: And do you get to resolve any of these issues?
Speaker 1: A guist you're just wondering about furious Look, I would
Speaker 1: love to think that you would hit a point where
Speaker 1: you would, like, you know, you would haunt the person
Speaker 1: from seventh grade who you're somehow still mad at when
Speaker 1: you're eighty, see that their life isn't all that great slash,
Speaker 1: they don't even remember you, And then you get to
Speaker 1: just you know, disintegrate. Okay, that's what I would like
Speaker 1: to think. You know that you kind of try to
Speaker 1: go around haunting and messing stuff up, and then you
Speaker 1: realize this is so stupid, and then once you let go,
Speaker 1: you're just like, oh now I'm just dusting wind and
Speaker 1: then gone, no consciousness, nothing, gone nothing nothing, blackout, blackout. Well, no, mate,
Speaker 1: I've got bloody news for you. You're wrong. There's a
Speaker 1: heaven and the people who are good, and that's more
Speaker 1: than you'd expect get to go there. And you know what,
Speaker 1: you made it, kid, You made it right in the door.
Speaker 1: And everyone in heaven is as big a fan of
Speaker 1: you as I am. They're all so excited to every
Speaker 1: one of them. And if having is full of your
Speaker 1: favorite thing, what's your favorite thing? Oh my god? Ntella? Okay.
Speaker 1: The walls are made of ntella, the chairs are made
Speaker 1: of ntella, the floor is made of ntella, The fridges
Speaker 1: are made of ntella, and inside the fridges is ntella.
Speaker 1: And in a way you think, is this too much nattella?
Speaker 1: But it isn't, because it's heaven, yea, And everyone there
Speaker 1: a bigger fan of you as I am, and they
Speaker 1: all when I talk to you about your life, so
Speaker 1: excited you that they've been waiting. They're but you took
Speaker 1: a very long time to take on that deep dish pizza.
Speaker 1: You finally got here, and they want to talk about
Speaker 1: your life, but they want to talk about your life
Speaker 1: through the medium of film. And the first thing they
Speaker 1: ask you, what's the first film you remember seeing? Nami
Speaker 1: at Peigan. The first film I remember seeing was Honey,
Speaker 1: I Shrunk the Kids. Yes, I don't think that film
Speaker 1: has come up on this podcast, and it's about fucking time.
Speaker 1: It did. WHOA, Absolutely I remember, and I was like,
Speaker 1: this is amazing because you're already a tiny child in
Speaker 1: a movie theater and then everything is huge. Giant bee
Speaker 1: one of the great great images in cinema ant and
Speaker 1: like when we had to like climb on the ant,
Speaker 1: it was just, oh my god. Rick moranis man. Love him.
Speaker 1: He was a real icon for a lot of us
Speaker 1: for a while, late eighties, early nineties it was Rick
Speaker 1: Moranus's time. It was a real sex symbol. Where were
Speaker 1: you watching this? Where did you grow up? I grew
Speaker 1: up in New York. I can't remember if I saw
Speaker 1: it in New York or in Detroit. And I say
Speaker 1: that because I would spend every summer and holidays in Detroit,
Speaker 1: which is where my mom's family's from, and so obviously
Speaker 1: we would go to movies there all the time, and
Speaker 1: like the drive in I remember even there. But in
Speaker 1: New York it would have been like a theater in
Speaker 1: Midtown Manhattan, because that's what they had in theaters. Do
Speaker 1: you have siblings, may I ask? I have? I was
Speaker 1: raised as an only child. Okay. And did you did
Speaker 1: you see that film with with your mom with her dad? Yes?
Speaker 1: I saw with my mom. And do you remember being
Speaker 1: like what the fuck this whole thing? How well you
Speaker 1: do you remember? No? Probably seven? All right, Sam? And
Speaker 1: I think, well, I don't. I don't remember the year
Speaker 1: it came out. I don't know how much fact checking
Speaker 1: you do on the pod, but it's mostly fact checking, okay.
Speaker 1: And yeah, I thought it was amazing. Seeing movies was
Speaker 1: a big thing that my mother and I would do
Speaker 1: growing up, and you know, we would even go to
Speaker 1: we would go to one movie and then we would
Speaker 1: like sneak into the second one. That was always like
Speaker 1: we would we would just like sit there and see,
Speaker 1: you know, we'd get a little double feature going if
Speaker 1: we could. Was it? There was a Disney World, Disney World,
Speaker 1: they had a honey, I was ryking the kids playground,
Speaker 1: climbing on a giant end, climbing a giant and imagine
Speaker 1: that's amazing. Yeah, that's worth the price of admission. I
Speaker 1: imagine it's not there anymore. And that, and for that,
Speaker 1: I'm disgusted. What what is the film that made you
Speaker 1: cry the most? Nah me comp again. That's a really
Speaker 1: hard one because I am very quick to cry. Like,
Speaker 1: crying is not hard for me, so it doesn't necessarily
Speaker 1: have to be. Do you cry in life as well
Speaker 1: as films? Yes? Easy, absolutely, anyway, Absolutely, easy, peasy, honey.
Speaker 1: It's always just right at the surface Sunday, just right
Speaker 1: on the lower lid, right in the lower lid. We're
Speaker 1: just waiting, ready, just run in the barrel, ready to go. Honey,
Speaker 1: What in the barrel? Honey? What in the chamber cried
Speaker 1: the most? I don't know, but I remember the first
Speaker 1: movie that made me cry? Can I give you that answer? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I mean it's not the question, but sure you could
Speaker 1: give me that. You can give me that. Look. Look,
Speaker 1: I will take it. Okay. Do you want honesty or
Speaker 1: do you want the answer? You want to hear? God?
Speaker 1: That's a great question, and I and to be honest,
Speaker 1: probably the second would apply to wowow just just I
Speaker 1: want to hear I don't want to know the truth. Yes,
Speaker 1: of course I went, honestly tell me miss mister Holland's Opus. Now,
Speaker 1: this was a movie that I don't think many people saw.
Speaker 1: Did you see it? I love it? I saw it.
Speaker 1: I love it. It's got one of my favorite sequences
Speaker 1: ever in a film content, which was okay, well this
Speaker 1: is wild, Okay, so okay. When I was like twelve
Speaker 1: years old, I taught myself sign language as well as
Speaker 1: I could teach it, being signing by myself. My first
Speaker 1: job out of college was an actor with a national
Speaker 1: Theater of the Deaf, and I was like the voice
Speaker 1: of the actor with two deaf actors, and we would
Speaker 1: travel schools around the country doing show and I would
Speaker 1: I would sign, I would SimCom sign and voice my lines,
Speaker 1: and then I would voice for the deaf actors. And
Speaker 1: then I also worked as an interpreter briefly for a
Speaker 1: high school student. So that's not my way of saying
Speaker 1: like I was just really into deaf culture asl and
Speaker 1: all of that. And when that movie came out, it
Speaker 1: was like such a big deal for me. I went
Speaker 1: and saw it in the theaters eight times, Like I
Speaker 1: was really just like and I would. I cried every
Speaker 1: every single time he finds out, like when he's talking
Speaker 1: his students, there's a problem. He's talking about those students,
Speaker 1: and I think it's about Beethoven and how he would
Speaker 1: like was Beethoven where he's like his hearing went away
Speaker 1: and he would like feel the vibrations. And then the
Speaker 1: kids were like, but if he couldn't hear, how was
Speaker 1: he able to make music? And then he like it's
Speaker 1: a dramatic moment. He's like, well Beethoven wasn't born deaf,
Speaker 1: And you're like, oh god, his son, because like all
Speaker 1: he wants is his son to hear the music. And
Speaker 1: then I always cry at the end when he finally
Speaker 1: gets to play his all of his students come and
Speaker 1: they play his masterpiece, his master work. At the end,
Speaker 1: I loved it. It's well. The sequence that I love
Speaker 1: is when he finally shows tries to show his son,
Speaker 1: tries to explain to his son, and he puts on
Speaker 1: he performs beautiful boy yes with sign language and with lights.
Speaker 1: Ah boy, Oh my god. It was so good, it
Speaker 1: was perfect, It was so chey. I was obsessed. Can
Speaker 1: I ask you, out of interest what you were twelve?
Speaker 1: How are you when you started learning sign language stuff? Twelve? Yeah,
Speaker 1: like a like eleven issue eleven twelve did? And if
Speaker 1: I made like what had drawn you to it? Was
Speaker 1: it just curiosity? At do nine people? What was it?
Speaker 1: I was in an after school program and one of
Speaker 1: the things they had our age group do was they
Speaker 1: taught us how to sign America the Beautiful that song.
Speaker 1: And that was only just my exposure to sign language.
Speaker 1: And I was like, what the fuck? We could be
Speaker 1: talking with our hands all this time and we're out
Speaker 1: here yelling like fucking monsters, you know. Like I was
Speaker 1: just so into it. And then I bought all these
Speaker 1: books and in essence, like I wasn't learning aslum, but
Speaker 1: I was learning like pretty much signed English. And I
Speaker 1: was like kind of teaching myself with the white with Okay,
Speaker 1: how do I do the sign? And it's it's a
Speaker 1: little wild. I was like, I taught myself sign language
Speaker 1: of books and then I took a class and then
Speaker 1: I kind of fell off for a little while because
Speaker 1: there's no one to sign with and then when I
Speaker 1: got to call, I got back into it again. That's
Speaker 1: wicked love It Riddle me this, what's the film that
Speaker 1: scared you the most? And do you like being scared?
Speaker 1: Child's play? Whoa child's play? So this day I believe
Speaker 1: there's like a now it's Child's Play TV show. I
Speaker 1: want nothing to do with it. That movie terrified me
Speaker 1: and I saw it as a child. I saw it
Speaker 1: in the theaters and I was like, why did they
Speaker 1: let this happen? And it was like one of those things.
Speaker 1: And I know I was in the title because the
Speaker 1: older because my older cousins wanted to go and they
Speaker 1: were like, okay, just have them sit here, and they
Speaker 1: didn't know it was gonna be like that. And I
Speaker 1: was so terrified. If I see his face to this day,
Speaker 1: like oh, like you just have no idea. I can't
Speaker 1: look at it. And then my cousins really got me
Speaker 1: good because there was this doll that both me and
Speaker 1: my female cousin got one Christmas called Suzie Scribbles. And
Speaker 1: this is a doll that like, you know, she's battery powered.
Speaker 1: You could put cassette tapes in her back and she
Speaker 1: would write and so it was like you know different,
Speaker 1: each disc was like a different story or something like that. Fine. Fine,
Speaker 1: So I was at my cousins. That's why I had
Speaker 1: to tell you we both had the doll because I
Speaker 1: was at her house and her older brothers they come
Speaker 1: and get me. They're like, Naomi, come upstairs, Susie has
Speaker 1: something to say to you. So I come upstairs. They
Speaker 1: turned the doll on. And remember, because you can just
Speaker 1: put it, you can put a cassette tape in her
Speaker 1: back right, so you can pretty much just record something
Speaker 1: if you're you know that evil, And they turn it
Speaker 1: on and she goes, Hi, Naomi, I'm Susie Chucky's sister.
Speaker 1: Wanna play? Oh no, when I tell you, I locked
Speaker 1: myself in the bathroom for three hours until an adult
Speaker 1: came home and made me come out sobbing, sobbing, So
Speaker 1: that like really just made it feel like, Okay, Chucky's
Speaker 1: out here, he is real, he isn't habit the dolls
Speaker 1: all around us. Like I couldn't really have dolls like
Speaker 1: hard dolls after that, or like if I did, I
Speaker 1: had to, like like Susie, I had to keep her
Speaker 1: in the closet, like I couldn't even have Susie out
Speaker 1: here looking at me. I mean, to be fair, I've
Speaker 1: never understood a hard dough. They look scary, I wondered
Speaker 1: without others, they're all fucking scary looking. I don't know
Speaker 1: why anyone has a hard doll. I won't go. I
Speaker 1: want this glassy i'd staring thing in my house. I know,
Speaker 1: I know it's real, horrible, horrible things. Do you like
Speaker 1: being scared? Not? I like with friends what I just
Speaker 1: realized I'm loving because I said it in quite a
Speaker 1: creepy way. Do you like being scared? Like I was
Speaker 1: offering it up because because I can scare you if
Speaker 1: it's my first date? Move like, do you like to
Speaker 1: be scared? Do you like to feel like your life
Speaker 1: could be taken at any moment? Drink first? Anyway. I
Speaker 1: do like scary movies, but I don't like them alone.
Speaker 1: I like the communal experience of watching horror, so that's
Speaker 1: so I do enjoy that. Like most recently I watched
Speaker 1: with some friends, we watched Texas Chainsaw Massacre the OG
Speaker 1: and that was like really good to watch because it
Speaker 1: was so over the top and just to have people
Speaker 1: around to just be screaming with it was satisfying. Nice.
Speaker 1: What is the film that most people don't like? It
Speaker 1: is not critically acclaimed, but you love it and you
Speaker 1: don't care what any of these idiots say about it.
Speaker 1: Gremlins two. Yeah, Gremlins two is perfect. It's a perfect
Speaker 1: motion picture. It is so funny, it's so good. I
Speaker 1: could watch it any day of the week. Gremlin's two,
Speaker 1: the New Batch is a masterpiece. Must absolutely, and we
Speaker 1: keep forgetting to mention it when we say a film
Speaker 1: as sequel that is better than there is. Oh my god, Yes,
Speaker 1: Gremlin's too. Holds up and I'm going to say this
Speaker 1: about Gremlin's wife. Sure, it's lovely, It's got some lovely moments.
Speaker 1: It's fucking slow. It's ages before a gremlin appears, and
Speaker 1: a gremlin is in the title. We know they're coming.
Speaker 1: It takes fucking ages. Gremlins too, they're like, here we go,
Speaker 1: let's get on with it. Trump, this is Trump is
Speaker 1: a lady gremlins, all types of gremlins, gremlin, lady gremlin, okay,
Speaker 1: genius gremlin, electrical gremlin, spider gremlin. This is what we
Speaker 1: call heightening. Okay, this is what we call the promise
Speaker 1: of the premise, and That's what I love about Gremlin's too,
Speaker 1: It's completely right. Yeah, and the ending with the lady
Speaker 1: Lady Gremlin and marrying the guy. Yeah, but also let's
Speaker 1: just point out not just marrying the guy. I think
Speaker 1: what I noticed as an adult that I don't think
Speaker 1: I noticed as a kid was the extent to which
Speaker 1: the adult human male was like, all right, yeah, do
Speaker 1: you know what he was? He literally like acquiescence to
Speaker 1: the Gremlin's love. Well, I think it decides he will
Speaker 1: take it. He speaks for the audience because as she
Speaker 1: gets closer to the camera, you, as audience, go, actually,
Speaker 1: she's fit. I mean there was a lot of time
Speaker 1: that I often I would say, like my fitness goals
Speaker 1: were Lady Gremlin. I was like, I want the body
Speaker 1: of a Lady Gremlin. Okay, the booty is tight, Okay.
Speaker 1: I was like, very subtle six packs. She's in good
Speaker 1: she's in good, Nick exactly, and I'm like, okay, I
Speaker 1: gotta be doing what she doing Lady Gremlin's diet to
Speaker 1: bring that picture in too, Like my Jim, how can
Speaker 1: you make me look like lady? I'm linna like the
Speaker 1: Lady Gramny workout plan. I think that's something in it?
Speaker 1: What is the film that you used to love, like
Speaker 1: you've watched it recently and you do not like it anymore?
Speaker 1: And that might not because the film is bad, but
Speaker 1: your feelings around the subject anything, right? What happened with
Speaker 1: you too? Okay? The Truth about Cats and Dogs? Yes,
Speaker 1: was Janine Garoffalo like you know, in her like nineties peak,
Speaker 1: and that was a movie that I loved that I
Speaker 1: would enjoy, Yes, ben Chaplin, well, of course, yes, absolutely, okay,
Speaker 1: it's a British jeep cut, thank you. Um. He could
Speaker 1: get it, you know. Um. But in watching it back,
Speaker 1: because like I felt like I was Janine Garoffalo right,
Speaker 1: like I related to her as that character, and I
Speaker 1: just really felt like this is not fair and this
Speaker 1: is what life is and oh my god, you can't
Speaker 1: stand it. And then watching it down, I'm like, I'm sorry, uma,
Speaker 1: it's not all that fine and ben Chaplin ain't worth
Speaker 1: all this. I just kind of felt like, you know what,
Speaker 1: they are bending over backwards, ruining their friendship for a
Speaker 1: man who what what take some pictures sometimes? Well he's
Speaker 1: very handsome, yeah, and he's British. Well, Brett, can you
Speaker 1: attest that that doesn't mean that much. I can. I
Speaker 1: can absolutely attest. That will only get you so far
Speaker 1: and it does not get you any closer to uma
Speaker 1: or Yeah, a lot of them nineties rum comes when
Speaker 1: you look back at the MU You're like, the guy
Speaker 1: isn't worth the fust. Yeah, yeah, the guy really needs
Speaker 1: to pick up his game here, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: But then I maybe that's the point. It's like maybe
Speaker 1: maybe the women, maybe we're not talking about it is
Speaker 1: how fucking shallow these women are. No, what we're seeing
Speaker 1: is the female psyche being beat down and eroded to
Speaker 1: the point where they are willing to sacrifice their lives,
Speaker 1: their jobs, and their friendships for I don't know, Patrick Dempsey.
Speaker 1: I mean, there are people and it's just like you
Speaker 1: know it. You know it because I was that. I
Speaker 1: was obsessed with rom coms. I was like very obsessed
Speaker 1: with being in love and like I wanted boyfriends so bad,
Speaker 1: so I would watch those kind of things and be like, oh,
Speaker 1: and now, like, you know, I have someone who's committed
Speaker 1: to me, and I'm like, Jesus Christ, it's a full
Speaker 1: time job. I can't look after Patrick Dempsey. Oh fucking
Speaker 1: dag got ship today? What is the film that means
Speaker 1: the most to you. But it might not be the
Speaker 1: film itself is any good, but the experience you had
Speaker 1: around seeing the film will always make it special to you.
Speaker 1: Billy Madison is more meaningful to me than it should be.
Speaker 1: Go on in that I watched it like I didn't
Speaker 1: know who Adam Sailor was. And this was like shortly
Speaker 1: after I had started a new school, and like one
Speaker 1: of the girl who went on to be like my
Speaker 1: best friend, Like she was like, let's watch this movie.
Speaker 1: This movie is so funny, and then it became our shorthands,
Speaker 1: like we would just quote it to each other, and
Speaker 1: it was something that kind of just cemented a friendship.
Speaker 1: And like when I think of her, I think of
Speaker 1: that movie and it was just it's so dumb. But
Speaker 1: like to this day, you could just be like if
Speaker 1: Pete and your pants is cooled, then consider me Miles Davis,
Speaker 1: and I just think that, and it's like I know
Speaker 1: that it's not high art, but it really um I
Speaker 1: feel it in my bones. I feel it in my bones.
Speaker 1: It makes me warm. Love it, love it. What is
Speaker 1: the film that you most relate to near We did
Speaker 1: talk about the truth about cats and dogs but already,
Speaker 1: which is like, so my energy. But it's funny. As
Speaker 1: I was thinking about this, you know, knowing I was
Speaker 1: coming on this podcast, okay, listening to episodes, I realized
Speaker 1: that growing up, the movies I loved had a theme
Speaker 1: which was always like little girl taken out of her
Speaker 1: life and made rich and or famous, like Annie Annie
Speaker 1: the musical musical called Henny. We're talking Mikey for children,
Speaker 1: they were children Life with Mikey. Okay, if you didn't
Speaker 1: see that, okay, Michael J. Fox. He is a former
Speaker 1: child start turned agent for child stars, and he finds
Speaker 1: this young girl, Christina Vidal, okay, shout out to her,
Speaker 1: and she's like a pickpocket. She's a street kid, you know.
Speaker 1: But he's like, you're a good actor because he sees her,
Speaker 1: you know, hustling people, and he's like, I want to
Speaker 1: make you a star. And it's like them like going
Speaker 1: on that journey. Also, Curly Sue, remember at least I
Speaker 1: remember Jim Belushi. Hello, just yes, Like that's what I'm
Speaker 1: talking about. Kids taken from their humdrum lives made into stars. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I get it. I get it. On the other but
Speaker 1: for example, you don't like say a Harry Potter kid
Speaker 1: taking from hundred Life. He's a wizard. You like it?
Speaker 1: They're rich and famous? No, no, no, I love I
Speaker 1: love HP. Okay, I do love HP. But you know,
Speaker 1: I mean I like worlds. I definitely love fantasy and
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff. You know, but that just
Speaker 1: gets sad because it's not real. I really wish the
Speaker 1: world of Harry Potter was real. Yeah, I mean, yeah,
Speaker 1: I guess so. But also it's well, it's very similar
Speaker 1: to our world really in its Yeah, but like this
Speaker 1: idea that you could just hide a house between two
Speaker 1: houses and no one knows it's the area. You could
Speaker 1: just flick a wand and stuff shows up. What I
Speaker 1: want is not to work or struggle. Right now we
Speaker 1: get into it. You want Jim BELUSI to knock on
Speaker 1: the door. It's like, get in the car. You don't
Speaker 1: have to do anything. It's all taking care of I
Speaker 1: get it. Thanks, Namick Peagan. Why is the sexiest film
Speaker 1: you've ever seen? That's really hard for me to say,
Speaker 1: because Brett, I'm sex negative, okay, and I say that
Speaker 1: that is just an opposition to you know how nowadays
Speaker 1: the young people they love to be sex positive and
Speaker 1: it's like, don't yuck, you're yum or whatever. Look, you
Speaker 1: can do what I want. I'll and I'll hear about it.
Speaker 1: But I am not personally like I find it so tiring.
Speaker 1: I find it too viscous. I don't enjoy the moisture concept.
Speaker 1: I just really want to be close. I don't want
Speaker 1: to have to do stuff again. Dry cuddle at best, yeah,
Speaker 1: most fully clothed. Dry cuddle from not facing kissed, the
Speaker 1: back of your heads, kiss on the back of the head,
Speaker 1: moisty free kiss on back ahead, fully clothed. Oh that's
Speaker 1: me so okay. Trying to think of, like what sex scene, Well,
Speaker 1: maybe you want to, like a sex negative scene maybe,
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you what was sexy back when I
Speaker 1: used to have energy. Now. Do you remember the movie
Speaker 1: Species very much? So that was sensual. There was a
Speaker 1: lot of sex and she was like, I'm sexy lady Alien,
Speaker 1: and I must I must have sex with you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because she was like trying to make a baby, right
Speaker 1: like so that she would have another alien. All I
Speaker 1: remember is she just kept getting into cases and having
Speaker 1: sex with people and killing them. And I thought, and
Speaker 1: it was like the premise of the film was of
Speaker 1: like what a way to go when it like it
Speaker 1: was like it was just it was just for men
Speaker 1: to go, like, yeah, if I knew that was going
Speaker 1: to kill me towards would do? Would do? Would would recommend?
Speaker 1: Surprise that hasn't come up on this shows that's a
Speaker 1: good way today, Natasha Hendridge spiking you through the edge
Speaker 1: right through the head after orgasm. Sure, so that's what
Speaker 1: you're into, that sort of alien murder sex. What? No,
Speaker 1: it was just a sexy movie at the time that
Speaker 1: I saw it. Now I think very clear to the killings.
Speaker 1: Just get to the killing. Skip it. What there's a subcategory.
Speaker 1: God knows what we're gonna how we're going to handle
Speaker 1: this traveling bone is worrying? Why does from the sands
Speaker 1: of all of them? This is a film you found
Speaker 1: a rousing that you didn't think you should have. Okay,
Speaker 1: I got this though, Okay Return to the Blue Lagoon
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety one, not Brookshields, Not brook Shields nineteen the
Speaker 1: Return to the Blue Lagoon because it was like were
Speaker 1: they brother or sister or were they just on the lagoon?
Speaker 1: You know? And I mean I've not seen it, and
Speaker 1: they all say underage they're underage preferences, are they? I think?
Speaker 1: But that was the thing because I remember it was
Speaker 1: like they were in love with each other, but then
Speaker 1: it was like they grew up together. So then I
Speaker 1: was like, are you buying? But are you biologically read?
Speaker 1: Because basically it starts like they're growing up and then
Speaker 1: the mother dies and so they're left to, you know,
Speaker 1: kind of fend for themselves from and then they you know,
Speaker 1: kind of they become teens and then kind of like
Speaker 1: you know, maybe probably what eighteen nineteen, like they don't
Speaker 1: get so old. But then it's like, but they're like
Speaker 1: in love, but it's like, are you related to the
Speaker 1: fact that I was like, oh, this seems so sweet,
Speaker 1: but then I was like, is this is this right?
Speaker 1: It was very trouble. It was very troubling. And also
Speaker 1: that water everywhere we've probably really prothered you well, no,
Speaker 1: that's clean, Okay, it's it's human moistures, Brett. Why are
Speaker 1: you making me explain this? No, Listen, the human moisture
Speaker 1: is a vile You're right, I mean listen, Sex and
Speaker 1: kissing and all this stuff. It's all wonderful until you
Speaker 1: think about it, and then what on earth what on
Speaker 1: earth are you doing? What are we doing? And that
Speaker 1: I think is probably what gets me is because like
Speaker 1: it really does feel like it's like a flip of
Speaker 1: the switch when you're like in a sexy mode, and
Speaker 1: then when it's over, you're like, what was that? Do
Speaker 1: you know? What it? Music? What? Why am I telling
Speaker 1: you this? This is about movies. Let's keep going objectively. Objectively,
Speaker 1: what's the greatest film of all time? Objectively? Might not
Speaker 1: be your favorite, but it's the best. This is the
Speaker 1: proper It's funny. I was actually a film major in
Speaker 1: car college, so I've seen a lot of like the greats,
Speaker 1: you know, I had to couldn't really remember him, sister,
Speaker 1: couldn't tell you much about him. The I believe one
Speaker 1: of the greatest films of all time is Shaun of
Speaker 1: the Dead. Yep, I said it, I said it. I
Speaker 1: said it. It is a perfect genre mashup, but also
Speaker 1: has this moments of pathos that are so moving, like
Speaker 1: you can be in the middle of laughing and then
Speaker 1: it's like, oh my god, mom has been bit and
Speaker 1: it was like, oh my god, I'm about to die.
Speaker 1: And I don't know if you've ever seen how tightly
Speaker 1: that movie is constructed. Every single thing said in the
Speaker 1: first five minute conversation lays out everything you have to
Speaker 1: deal with for the rest of the movie. And I
Speaker 1: was like, this is right and tight and brilliant. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, I just like love it when somebody can
Speaker 1: just do that. And then, of course, come on, we
Speaker 1: love that, Edgaray, those little snip snips, cut cut, cut cut,
Speaker 1: you know, keeping it moving, keeping a dynamic. We love that. Excellent,
Speaker 1: excellent answer. What is the film that you could or have?
Speaker 1: What's the most? Over and over again? Can I just
Speaker 1: ask if someone playing the maraccas in the background, I
Speaker 1: am so sorry. The dog is digging on the floor,
Speaker 1: so she's just having a dig. But I didn't think
Speaker 1: you could hear it because I love it. It does
Speaker 1: sound like I wondered if your husband was in the background,
Speaker 1: just tiggler ring in the background. She likes to, you know,
Speaker 1: we have linoleum, the finest floors money can buy, and
Speaker 1: so she takes her little nails and she's always like,
Speaker 1: having a little dig. What's the film you could or have?
Speaker 1: What's the most? Over and over again? I guess it
Speaker 1: would be this is a real hard one. Mermaids Mermaids
Speaker 1: Share with No Rider Christina love it, love it, love it,
Speaker 1: Bob Hoskins. I mean it was one of my favorites
Speaker 1: when I was younger. I love the soundtrack, everything about it,
Speaker 1: love everything about Oh oh we love we love that
Speaker 1: for me and Circle of Friends. Ah Benny A foolish
Speaker 1: article and just did I need to watch Mermaids again?
Speaker 1: It holds up, does it? I hope so. I ain't
Speaker 1: seen it in so long. It does. It's very sweet.
Speaker 1: M That's where the sheep Shop song comes from. Yeah,
Speaker 1: does he love me? I don't know? You know, and
Speaker 1: you're like, what good share? I won't keep going, refuse what.
Speaker 1: I don't like being negative? You don't mind it so much?
Speaker 1: What's this? In a short way? What's the worst film
Speaker 1: you've ever seen? The lobster walked out during it? Livid,
Speaker 1: hated it. The whole premise don't make no kind of sense.
Speaker 1: They give me this premise, which I'm into again. I
Speaker 1: love like this kind of sci fi, a dystopian moment,
Speaker 1: but I would rather you mind that world, because I'm
Speaker 1: not understanding why. It's like, oh, we both have limps,
Speaker 1: we should be together. Why is that even the premise
Speaker 1: of like external things that you like about each other,
Speaker 1: and then halfway through it became a totally different movie.
Speaker 1: I left the theater. Okay, I said, Andy, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be outside when when it's overcome, get me. How far
Speaker 1: into it? Well? You maybe forty minutes, forty five, maybe
Speaker 1: even a full hour, But I said I can't. I
Speaker 1: will because I just felt like you're not sometimes just
Speaker 1: sitting there watching a movie and you're like, okay, I'm here,
Speaker 1: I have to finish it. And I just realized, no,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't and I just got right up.
Speaker 1: I say, you don't own me your ghost slant the most?
Speaker 1: Did Andy state, oh, yeah, he liked it, and what
Speaker 1: did you do for the for the I don't know.
Speaker 1: Next hour, I texted people, I said, have you seen
Speaker 1: this movie with a lobster? It sucks? I'm outside. Did
Speaker 1: he come out and say to you, no, no, you
Speaker 1: were wrong? Here's what when were you? Like? What did
Speaker 1: I miss? Or like? Well he was he was like
Speaker 1: you really didn't have that much left? He said to me,
Speaker 1: He's like, how do you get that far and leave?
Speaker 1: And then he was also like he's like, yeah, you
Speaker 1: wouldn't have liked the ending, so I was like, listen,
Speaker 1: you're in comedy, you're a comedian, you're fucking funny. But
Speaker 1: what's the film that made you laugh the most? Okay,
Speaker 1: did you ever see the movie Dodgeball? Love it? And
Speaker 1: I thought the dodge Ball was like the funniest thing
Speaker 1: I had ever seen. There was a time where that
Speaker 1: was ma jam and I thought it was his racle.
Speaker 1: Great movie is it? I don't know. I haven't watched
Speaker 1: a long time, but very much, exactly, exactly, very much
Speaker 1: enjoyed it. I'm sure it holds up. It's nothing wrong
Speaker 1: with dodging bulls, is there? No? I guess not. But
Speaker 1: it was so dumb, do you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: It was just so stupid, but so funny. So look,
Speaker 1: we've learned a lot now. Let you've been You've been wonderful,
Speaker 1: as expected, You've been an absolute joy. However, oh oh,
Speaker 1: how old were you when you died? By the way,
Speaker 1: I died at seventy eight? Okay, when you were seventy
Speaker 1: eight and you were having a deep dish crust pizza.
Speaker 1: It had cheese, mushroom, and pepperoni on it, and you
Speaker 1: went straight to the middle. I didn't quite a curly
Speaker 1: sort of really understand how you did this. But you
Speaker 1: used your hand. You went straight in the middle. Your
Speaker 1: fingers were burning, but you didn't. Cakes were seventy eight
Speaker 1: and you pulled out the middle of this pizza and
Speaker 1: you stuffed it in your saying, oh, I just this
Speaker 1: was the police report. I took the biggest slice. It's heavy.
Speaker 1: You know, a deep dish. Have you ever had a
Speaker 1: deep dish? No? Okay, there it is. We gotta get
Speaker 1: you some deep dish. All right, we're gonna do that. Patreons.
Speaker 1: I want you to rub all your your pounds together, Okay,
Speaker 1: rub your nickels and coins together so we can get
Speaker 1: bread and deep dish. Help him out. He just needs
Speaker 1: just a personal pizza picked up. We like a shovel, yes, yes,
Speaker 1: And then you you take a bite and it's like
Speaker 1: so that cheese. It's so much cheese bread, it's so gooey.
Speaker 1: And that's what happens. So you you you got your shovel,
Speaker 1: you folked out a triangle of deep dish crust pizza. Yeah,
Speaker 1: at the end of it in your mouth, slid it
Speaker 1: down a bit so you weren't eat in the metal.
Speaker 1: You bit into it. It was very hot, and you
Speaker 1: went and you did that where you trying to call
Speaker 1: it down in your mouth yea yeah, and and then
Speaker 1: you swallowed it in one You hadn't chewed. It was
Speaker 1: so hot. You were just trying to get rid of it.
Speaker 1: And you saw it too much cheese in your throat
Speaker 1: and you started to choke and it spread, like, you know,
Speaker 1: across your whole esophagus, and you were like panicking looking around.
Speaker 1: No one was there. You don't you were. You were
Speaker 1: on your own eat in this pizza. Absolutely because because
Speaker 1: in seventy six years people don't eat cheese anymore. And
Speaker 1: they were disgusted with you. They're like, everyone's vegan and
Speaker 1: you were like, ma, only haven't cheese anyway. You, ironically,
Speaker 1: for us, the last person who wasn't vegan on a
Speaker 1: choke to death on cheese, collapsed, pulled the tablecloth with
Speaker 1: you the deepest onto your face as burns. Yeah. Yeah, anyway,
Speaker 1: I'm walking past with a coffin, you know what. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I've gone for a walk and I walked past this deep, deep,
Speaker 1: deep deep dish dish crust crust pizza place. And who's that? Like,
Speaker 1: there's a sort of checks tablecloth covering a body, and
Speaker 1: also a pan on top of the passon's face, and
Speaker 1: I go over and I put it up, and I go,
Speaker 1: it's that is that my old friend name fucking out?
Speaker 1: And I see how she's I know what's happened to here.
Speaker 1: She's checked to death on cheese again. I know what's
Speaker 1: happened there anyway, So you know, it's a tragedy for everyone,
Speaker 1: especially in comedy. But I need to deal with this,
Speaker 1: particularly before the manager gets back, because otherwise it's going
Speaker 1: to look like a murder. So I get the pizza
Speaker 1: knife and I start chopping you up to try and
Speaker 1: get you into the coffin, and I chop you up
Speaker 1: into lads of pieces. I use the pizza shovel to
Speaker 1: spade pizza to put you in the in the coffin.
Speaker 1: I get you're all in the coffin that's covering, and
Speaker 1: then I put a load of cheese on top of it.
Speaker 1: I melt it, and then you are. You are a
Speaker 1: deep dish coffin based body with a cheese crust. However,
Speaker 1: it looks great, it smells great. However, it's probably very tasty. However,
Speaker 1: there's only enough room in this in this now cooks
Speaker 1: coffin to slide one DVD into the side with you
Speaker 1: for you to take a cross to the other side.
Speaker 1: And on the other side, it's movie night every night,
Speaker 1: and one night it's your movie night. What film are
