<v Speaker 1>to do with the eighties and the eighties been a

0:00:07.800 --> 0:00:09.800
<v Speaker 1>millennia hasn't seen a lot of these eighties movies that

0:00:09.800 --> 0:00:12.560
<v Speaker 1>were going through. Was to Watch from nineteen eighty six,

0:00:12.640 --> 0:00:17.320
<v Speaker 1>starring a very young, always beautiful Rob Low Swayze. He's

0:00:17.360 --> 0:00:20.640
<v Speaker 1>in it, Keanu Reeves, Frank Stallone. Did you notice Frank Stellone?

0:00:20.720 --> 0:00:22.119
<v Speaker 2>I did not know who Frank Stallone.

0:00:22.440 --> 0:00:25.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he's a belligerent defenseman as well. He's on the

0:00:25.280 --> 0:00:25.799
<v Speaker 1>on the team.

0:00:25.880 --> 0:00:28.640
<v Speaker 2>No, yeah, he had blinking. He miss it with Keanu

0:00:28.680 --> 0:00:29.319
<v Speaker 2>rees Oh my.

0:00:29.280 --> 0:00:33.600
<v Speaker 1>God, mainly because of Keanu Reeve's ridiculous French Canadian accent,

0:00:33.880 --> 0:00:36.600
<v Speaker 1>which he doesn't even commit to. It's there for two

0:00:36.680 --> 0:00:40.480
<v Speaker 1>lines and then he talks normally. Where that man said,

0:00:40.560 --> 0:00:47.120

<v Speaker 1>yell cut in thirty years am Now this is gonna

0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:51.600
<v Speaker 1>look really bad.

0:00:51.720 --> 0:00:55.240
<v Speaker 2>Keanu It's amazing. That was his film debut, being in

0:00:55.280 --> 0:00:58.520
<v Speaker 2>Young Blood. Crazy that he came back and became a

0:00:58.520 --> 0:00:59.240
<v Speaker 2>big mix long.

0:00:59.160 --> 0:01:02.640
<v Speaker 1>Way before John can Someone nicked his dog. Where that

0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:08.720
<v Speaker 1>man he said, Anna mout You studied acting you or I.

0:01:10.520 --> 0:01:12.520
<v Speaker 1>There are so many at the time. I remember when

0:01:12.520 --> 0:01:14.320
<v Speaker 1>I first saw that, I was like, guy, this movie

0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:17.959
<v Speaker 1>so savage, all these singing lines, somedthing you look back.

0:01:18.040 --> 0:01:20.360
<v Speaker 1>The line go hunt you sent Bernard is one of

0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:26.520
<v Speaker 1>the lamest lines in movie history. He's scum nuts, scum nuts.

0:01:27.360 --> 0:01:32.039
<v Speaker 1>And then also this line too wanna go pretty by

0:01:33.000 --> 0:01:35.679
<v Speaker 1>when I got pretty boyt. What did you think of

0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:36.119
<v Speaker 1>the movie?

0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:38.360
<v Speaker 2>Well, they were always trying to fight each other. I

0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:42.280
<v Speaker 2>thought the amount of fist fighting and violence was pretty grotesque.

0:01:42.319 --> 0:01:44.199
<v Speaker 1>It's more about fighting than ice hockey.

0:01:44.280 --> 0:01:44.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:01:45.480 --> 0:01:47.680
<v Speaker 2>So Rob Low is a great ice hockey player, but.

0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:50.240
<v Speaker 1>He's also got a great rigg, isn't he What a

0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:51.400
<v Speaker 1>beautiful young man?

0:01:51.440 --> 0:01:53.160
<v Speaker 2>You do see with his shirt off quite a bit.

0:01:53.120 --> 0:01:55.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, you see his naked, but about fifteen minutes in,

0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:57.320
<v Speaker 1>like most of his movies in the eighties, he was

0:01:57.400 --> 0:01:59.840
<v Speaker 1>naked having sex with someone within fifteen minutes.

0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:01.920
<v Speaker 2>Didn't hold back on that sex scene, did they.

0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:03.200
<v Speaker 1>I know.

0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:09.760
<v Speaker 2>The scariest scene of any movie I've probably ever seen

0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:11.800
<v Speaker 2>was the hazing scene with Roblow.

0:02:11.480 --> 0:02:14.280
<v Speaker 1>Again Swaysy Throat Rip in Roadhouns.

0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:18.240
<v Speaker 2>They hold down Roblow Patsy to haze him into the

0:02:18.320 --> 0:02:22.360
<v Speaker 2>hockey team. Right, he's naked. The whole hockey team holds

0:02:22.440 --> 0:02:24.960
<v Speaker 2>him down. Patrick Swayzey puts a jock strap over his

0:02:25.040 --> 0:02:29.560
<v Speaker 2>mouth like he's a doctor, has a barber's razor.

0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:32.080
<v Speaker 1>Old school kind of Jack the Ripper slasher.

0:02:31.680 --> 0:02:33.560
<v Speaker 2>And shaves his his area.

0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:36.799
<v Speaker 1>Need to just go all the way.

0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:39.680
<v Speaker 2>But it looks like he's going to cut his member off.

0:02:39.800 --> 0:02:42.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah it does. It is jacket a sleep this night

0:02:43.040 --> 0:02:45.360
<v Speaker 1>last night, it was terrified by. It's got a lot

0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:47.680
<v Speaker 1>of the cliches of eight sports movies. So he's got

0:02:47.720 --> 0:02:50.080
<v Speaker 1>the bitter older brother. Did he lose an eye?

0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:52.600
<v Speaker 2>He lost an eye playing hockey.

0:02:52.840 --> 0:02:55.400
<v Speaker 1>Then he's got the old mumbling dad who's a farmer,

0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:57.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, doesn't guess what if dad doesn't want him

0:02:57.840 --> 0:03:00.000
<v Speaker 1>to go to that America and play in the big

0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:02.480
<v Speaker 1>leagues and become a big time hot shot and needs

0:03:02.480 --> 0:03:03.840
<v Speaker 1>help out on the farm, doesn't he?

0:03:03.919 --> 0:03:05.600
<v Speaker 2>And then we found out that the dad used to

0:03:05.600 --> 0:03:06.120
<v Speaker 2>play hockey.

0:03:06.680 --> 0:03:11.160
<v Speaker 1>Want to surprise, the dad is played by a hockey great, Nestarenko.

0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:13.960
<v Speaker 1>Eric Nestarenko's not one of the all time greats of hockey.

0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:15.680
<v Speaker 2>This is how much they were obsessed with violence. In

0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:18.840
<v Speaker 2>the film So Roblow's character is great at skating, he's

0:03:18.840 --> 0:03:20.680
<v Speaker 2>great at hockey skills, but he's not going to make

0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:22.720
<v Speaker 2>it as a pro because he can't fight terrible. So

0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:25.280
<v Speaker 2>he comes back to his hometown. His dad takes him

0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:27.080
<v Speaker 2>to the local rink and says, come on, hit me,

0:03:27.160 --> 0:03:28.760
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to teach you how to fight. His dad,

0:03:28.760 --> 0:03:31.640
<v Speaker 2>who didn't want him to play hockey, is provoking.

0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:35.520
<v Speaker 1>You learn to you learn to play ice hockey on

0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:37.560
<v Speaker 1>the rink. You learn to fight here. And they're in

0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:41.000
<v Speaker 1>a barn, and now we need to tell the UFC

0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:43.120
<v Speaker 1>these fighters do not need to go on a six

0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:47.160
<v Speaker 1>week training camp. In two short days, Rob Low becomes

0:03:47.200 --> 0:03:49.920
<v Speaker 1>the greatest fighter there ever was just in two days,

0:03:49.960 --> 0:03:51.800
<v Speaker 1>hitting that bag and the speedball with his dad and

0:03:51.840 --> 0:03:52.240
<v Speaker 1>his brother.

0:03:52.440 --> 0:03:55.560
<v Speaker 2>Everybody's fighting. So the coach throws a punch at somebody

0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:56.640
<v Speaker 2>in the crowd during a game.

0:03:56.720 --> 0:03:58.720
<v Speaker 1>How great is that? Classic? Kind of sort of like

0:03:59.040 --> 0:04:02.040
<v Speaker 1>in Rocky as well, that kind of Mickey character of

0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:04.200
<v Speaker 1>the I'm Pat Moriarty from Chronic Kid, that kind of

0:04:04.240 --> 0:04:07.520
<v Speaker 1>grizzled coach character. He's great the actor and that.

0:04:07.600 --> 0:04:10.040
<v Speaker 2>He's great, But this is the problem with it. I

0:04:10.120 --> 0:04:11.920
<v Speaker 2>thought the moral of the story was going to be

0:04:12.200 --> 0:04:15.480
<v Speaker 2>Rob Low doesn't need to resort to violence like everybody

0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:17.080
<v Speaker 2>wants him to. He doesn't need to be a fighter

0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:18.120
<v Speaker 2>to be a great because he.

0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:20.240
<v Speaker 1>Gets the great big last scene and he wins the

0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:21.159
<v Speaker 1>game in the league.

0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:23.359
<v Speaker 2>He wins the game. It's three all, he's got the

0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:26.120
<v Speaker 2>penalty shot. There's three seconds ago he makes a shot.

0:04:26.200 --> 0:04:29.120
<v Speaker 2>I thought, great, it's proving he doesn't need violence to

0:04:29.240 --> 0:04:31.919
<v Speaker 2>make it as a hockey player. Then the siren goes.

0:04:32.279 --> 0:04:35.760
<v Speaker 2>He starts fighting with his hockey stick like a sword

0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:39.120
<v Speaker 2>fight with his main enemy, disarms him, armed him, and

0:04:39.160 --> 0:04:40.600
<v Speaker 2>then beats the crap out of him.

0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:42.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, horrifically.

0:04:42.080 --> 0:04:45.680
<v Speaker 2>The game is over and mercilessly he beats him.

0:04:45.800 --> 0:04:48.520
<v Speaker 1>In no way does Rob Low beat that evil He's

0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:50.600
<v Speaker 1>like one of the most evil less eighties badd he's

0:04:50.640 --> 0:04:51.839
<v Speaker 1>ever seen that racky.

0:04:51.720 --> 0:04:54.760
<v Speaker 2>And then he beat like beats this guy up. It's

0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:55.599
<v Speaker 2>pretty confronting.

0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:57.839
<v Speaker 1>It's like he's making him eat ice at one point.

0:04:57.960 --> 0:05:00.560
<v Speaker 2>Then he signs autographs for a bunch of kids who

0:05:00.600 --> 0:05:00.960
<v Speaker 2>look up.

0:05:00.880 --> 0:05:04.400
<v Speaker 1>To it and watched this whole ground and pound going on, like, dad,

0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:05.040
<v Speaker 1>what's he doing.

0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:06.839
<v Speaker 2>That's the end of the movie. Yeah, and we're left

0:05:06.920 --> 0:05:09.800
<v Speaker 2>going like, all right, I guess violence is the answer.

0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:11.480
<v Speaker 2>Is that what I'm taking away from this?

0:05:12.160 --> 0:05:14.960
<v Speaker 1>It was the eighties. Jacket was a very different time.

0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:18.479
<v Speaker 1>The scene where his dad doesn't want him to go

0:05:18.680 --> 0:05:21.719
<v Speaker 1>and leave the farm and to become a nice hockey player, right,

0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:24.880
<v Speaker 1>classic cliche of natic cliche. We want to know this morning,

0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:27.400
<v Speaker 1>how's this ever happened in real life where you went

0:05:27.480 --> 0:05:29.200

<v Speaker 1>the army or the police, or to be a fire

0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:33.839

<v Speaker 1>how intense swayze he was.

0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:47.680
<v Speaker 4>He might be the most intense sky ever.

0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Really.

0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:52.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, he'd be up all night writing and like doing

0:06:52.839 --> 0:06:55.440
<v Speaker 4>Buddy Wheat push ups with his feet up against the

0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:58.279
<v Speaker 4>wall all night long, and then show up at the

<v Speaker 4>He was like a lot, It's great, He's great.

0:07:05.640 --> 0:07:07.560
<v Speaker 1>And then he talks about this.

0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:09.880
<v Speaker 4>He tried to get us to put that guid for

0:07:09.960 --> 0:07:12.520
<v Speaker 4>sakend song. She's like the wind in Young Blood.

0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:14.840
<v Speaker 2>You're like, we're like.

0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:22.200
<v Speaker 1>This in an ice hockey movie. That's the movie anything

0:07:22.600 --> 0:07:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Swayzy is. He doesn't get enough credit. He's one of

0:07:25.480 --> 0:07:27.679
<v Speaker 1>the great So I think the one great thing about

0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:30.600
<v Speaker 1>the eightes of the Ages hopefully is exposed you to

0:07:30.680 --> 0:07:32.320
<v Speaker 1>the greatness of Patrick Swayzey.

0:07:32.400 --> 0:07:35.280
<v Speaker 2>He's fast becoming my favorite icon of the eighties. In

0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:38.680
<v Speaker 2>Youngblood my favorite character, and rhoad House is probably my

0:07:39.080 --> 0:07:42.560
<v Speaker 2>newest favorite eighty film and swayze is the stuff, all right.

0:07:42.600 --> 0:07:45.240
<v Speaker 1>So we're asking today, like in a lot of eighties movies,

0:07:45.280 --> 0:07:46.600
<v Speaker 1>you see this in quite a few of them, where

0:07:46.600 --> 0:07:48.960
<v Speaker 1>the dad there's always some dad who doesn't want the

0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:51.400
<v Speaker 1>kid to go and live out their dreams. They want

0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:53.640
<v Speaker 1>them to stay on the farm or work in the

0:07:53.680 --> 0:07:57.120
<v Speaker 1>steel mill. It's always something industrial and heavy and laborious,

0:07:57.160 --> 0:07:59.920
<v Speaker 1>isn't it. And there's always that scene where they're arguing

0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:02.480
<v Speaker 1>and then the sun finally says, what's been hanging around

0:08:02.520 --> 0:08:05.840
<v Speaker 1>for years? We goes don't end up like you pushes

0:08:05.880 --> 0:08:09.520
<v Speaker 1>this old man who falls into hay, you know, and

0:08:09.560 --> 0:08:12.040
<v Speaker 1>the mom looks through like a window where she's washing

0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:15.720
<v Speaker 1>a plate. Oh God, is that is that every other?

0:08:17.520 --> 0:08:18.960
<v Speaker 2>Your dad's just trying to protect you.

0:08:19.600 --> 0:08:21.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm so disported my dad. He never did that with me,

0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:23.320
<v Speaker 1>so I could have that moment. Please say, you don't

0:08:23.320 --> 0:08:26.880
<v Speaker 1>want to become a DJ now. I hope you do

0:08:26.960 --> 0:08:29.960
<v Speaker 1>get to live out those dreams of playing nickelback. All right,

0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:33.120
<v Speaker 1>let's go to Fiona. So we're asking, what's this your life?

0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:36.120
<v Speaker 1>Did your dad try to stop you living out your dreams? Fiona?

0:08:36.160 --> 0:08:37.440
<v Speaker 1>I think this was your mom's story.

0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:41.280
<v Speaker 3>It is my mom's story. So my mom decided her

0:08:41.640 --> 0:08:45.680
<v Speaker 3>father and played hockey for Australia once.

0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:46.600
<v Speaker 1>Wow.

0:08:47.760 --> 0:08:50.760
<v Speaker 3>The reason he didn't like her playing hockey for Australia

0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:54.320
<v Speaker 3>was he had had a serious hip injury which actually

0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:56.600
<v Speaker 3>made one of his legs six inches shoulders than the

0:08:56.640 --> 0:08:58.880
<v Speaker 3>other by having.

0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:04.560
<v Speaker 1>Sorry, I'm not laughing at it, it's just quite a

0:09:05.320 --> 0:09:08.160
<v Speaker 1>discrepancy between one side and the other.

0:09:09.080 --> 0:09:11.600
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, so he pretty much had a hit replacement

0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:13.600
<v Speaker 3>when he was ten years old because he played hockey

0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:18.040
<v Speaker 3>and got injured and he didn't want mum to play hockey.

0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:19.040
<v Speaker 1>I could understand.

0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:20.360
<v Speaker 2>This is so much like the film.

0:09:21.280 --> 0:09:23.440
<v Speaker 1>I can't believe the first cool we get is your one.

0:09:23.480 --> 0:09:25.480
<v Speaker 1>It's so close to the plot of y.

0:09:26.960 --> 0:09:29.880
<v Speaker 3>She missed out on playing at the Olympics in Melbourne

0:09:29.880 --> 0:09:31.800
<v Speaker 3>in nineen fifty six because of it.

0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:34.360
<v Speaker 1>This is incredible, so said.

0:09:34.400 --> 0:09:36.440
<v Speaker 2>She played for Australia once. So she did it once

0:09:36.480 --> 0:09:38.440
<v Speaker 2>and then had to retire because your dad made her.

0:09:39.160 --> 0:09:42.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, pretty much in a nutshell, that's it.

0:09:42.960 --> 0:09:45.400
<v Speaker 1>So she missed out on playing for Australia the Olympics

0:09:45.400 --> 0:09:46.280
<v Speaker 1>here at.

0:09:46.160 --> 0:09:49.000
<v Speaker 3>The Melbourne Olympics in nineteen fifty six. So she played

0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:53.360
<v Speaker 3>a qualifying match in Multura, which is where she was based.

0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:59.439
<v Speaker 3>And yeah, then of course then she wasn't allowed to play.

0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:01.679
<v Speaker 3>You wouldn't let her go. He wouldn't pay for it

0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:03.240
<v Speaker 3>to get to go to Melbourne.

0:10:03.440 --> 0:10:06.560
<v Speaker 1>God, that is incredible, amazing stuff, Fiona, Thank you very

0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:07.200
