<v Speaker 1>the team.

0:00:40.644 --> 0:00:43.805
<v Speaker 2>We talk about the shows that we're into, books, TV shows, apps, whatever.

0:00:43.925 --> 0:00:46.004
<v Speaker 2>You might find your next favorite TV schoedule in the

0:00:46.004 --> 0:00:48.405
<v Speaker 2>next twenty minutes. Patsy, what are you giving a double

0:00:48.405 --> 0:00:49.205
<v Speaker 2>thumbs up too?

0:00:49.445 --> 0:00:51.685
<v Speaker 4>I did want to pay homage to Diane Keaton, who

0:00:51.725 --> 0:00:55.125
<v Speaker 4>we sadly lost this week, far too young at seventy nine.

0:00:55.165 --> 0:00:57.445
<v Speaker 4>And I was thinking some of my favorite movies, and

0:00:57.445 --> 0:01:00.045
<v Speaker 4>there's so many. I watched Father of the Bride last

0:01:00.085 --> 0:01:00.605
<v Speaker 4>Saturday night.

0:01:00.685 --> 0:01:02.485
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we watched it Monday night with the girls.

0:01:02.565 --> 0:01:05.845
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, but there was one because I said so, which

0:01:05.965 --> 0:01:08.165
<v Speaker 4>was a two thousand and seven flicking, you know, just

0:01:08.285 --> 0:01:12.125
<v Speaker 4>a romantic, sort of funny story of an overbearing mum

0:01:12.165 --> 0:01:15.245
<v Speaker 4>with three grown up daughters and trying to get them

0:01:15.325 --> 0:01:18.925
<v Speaker 4>set for life and essentially and this is something that

0:01:19.005 --> 0:01:21.925
<v Speaker 4>I'm grappling with right now with Audrey. You have done

0:01:21.965 --> 0:01:25.084
<v Speaker 4>so with your two girls, that whole thing of letting

0:01:25.205 --> 0:01:30.805
<v Speaker 4>go as a parent. And so Diane's character she there's

0:01:30.845 --> 0:01:33.925
<v Speaker 4>this beautiful monologue in one of the scenes where she says,

0:01:33.965 --> 0:01:38.205
<v Speaker 4>you know, how do I let go and let essentially

0:01:38.285 --> 0:01:39.805
<v Speaker 4>let you fly, Bertie Fly.

0:01:40.005 --> 0:01:41.005
<v Speaker 5>It's just gorgeous.

0:01:41.165 --> 0:01:43.445
<v Speaker 2>She could do incredible drama like movies, not the Godfather,

0:01:43.525 --> 0:01:47.005
<v Speaker 2>than the comedies, romantic comedies. I've never seen Dane Keen

0:01:47.085 --> 0:01:49.285
<v Speaker 2>in a bad movie. No, I don't think she made

0:01:49.285 --> 0:01:51.885
<v Speaker 2>any bad movies. Now incredible ones. If you really are

0:01:51.885 --> 0:01:53.845
<v Speaker 2>looking for something a movie to watch every weekend, you

0:01:53.885 --> 0:01:57.485
<v Speaker 2>can't go past any of the light forty odd movies

0:01:57.525 --> 0:01:59.205
<v Speaker 2>I think I saw at the other day. She made

0:01:59.405 --> 0:02:02.085
<v Speaker 2>incredible range. All right, what else? Patsy gets your daughter?

0:02:02.445 --> 0:02:04.365
<v Speaker 4>The other thing last night we watched I Like Me,

0:02:04.565 --> 0:02:06.445
<v Speaker 4>which is the John Candy documentary.

0:02:06.485 --> 0:02:08.085
<v Speaker 1>Oh I've seen this idea.

0:02:08.525 --> 0:02:09.645
<v Speaker 4>Oh my god, is it joyous.

0:02:09.885 --> 0:02:11.285
<v Speaker 1>That's what a funny, funny guy.

0:02:11.165 --> 0:02:15.805
<v Speaker 4>Absolutely and what a talent. And it's directed by Colin Hanks,

0:02:16.125 --> 0:02:17.044
<v Speaker 4>which is Tom.

0:02:16.845 --> 0:02:19.765
<v Speaker 1>Hanks's son, gifty comedian himself.

0:02:20.285 --> 0:02:23.005
<v Speaker 4>Awayane Reddold's as well, And it's really got a hues

0:02:23.005 --> 0:02:25.845
<v Speaker 4>who of Hollywood has not paying homage to John Candy

0:02:25.925 --> 0:02:29.645
<v Speaker 4>and just how realistic and authentic he was on the screen,

0:02:29.685 --> 0:02:32.885
<v Speaker 4>and how he brought his total self to the screen

0:02:32.965 --> 0:02:36.845
<v Speaker 4>and grappling with several things like imposter syndrome later in

0:02:36.925 --> 0:02:40.085
<v Speaker 4>his career, also the loss of his father at just five,

0:02:40.125 --> 0:02:44.805
<v Speaker 4>and how he brought that desire for connection and family

0:02:45.565 --> 0:02:49.565
<v Speaker 4>to the screen. And you know, there's that scene in Planes,

0:02:49.605 --> 0:02:52.885
<v Speaker 4>Trains and Automobiles with Steve Martin where Steve Martin has

0:02:52.885 --> 0:02:54.325
<v Speaker 4>a go at him in the hotel room, you know,

0:02:55.005 --> 0:02:57.685
<v Speaker 4>saying how useless he was, and he says, I like me.

0:02:58.525 --> 0:02:59.605
<v Speaker 5>And it's beautiful.

0:02:59.685 --> 0:03:02.085
<v Speaker 2>It's a really moving comedy. Planes Trains and Utobiles. I

0:03:02.085 --> 0:03:03.885
<v Speaker 2>love Steve By and it's one of my comic heroes.

0:03:03.925 --> 0:03:06.565
<v Speaker 2>But I'm telling you now, Planes Trains and Automobiles is

0:03:06.605 --> 0:03:09.565
<v Speaker 2>John Candy's movie. Yes, it's not the same movie without

0:03:09.605 --> 0:03:12.165
<v Speaker 2>John Candy. He provides all the heart in it as well,

0:03:12.405 --> 0:03:15.764
<v Speaker 2>and proper old school screen presence.

0:03:15.885 --> 0:03:17.485
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, seemed like cool runnings.

0:03:17.525 --> 0:03:19.605
<v Speaker 2>There should just be a twenty four hour movie channel

0:03:19.845 --> 0:03:23.845
<v Speaker 2>that just shows John Candy movies. This relentlessly funny. It's

0:03:23.885 --> 0:03:25.725
<v Speaker 2>one of those guys. Is built for comedy as well.

0:03:25.765 --> 0:03:28.405
<v Speaker 4>Yes, yes, And that scene in the train station where

0:03:28.445 --> 0:03:31.245
<v Speaker 4>Steve Martin cost and he's just sitting there and he's

0:03:31.325 --> 0:03:33.565
<v Speaker 4>told him that he's on his way home to his wife,

0:03:33.645 --> 0:03:36.325
<v Speaker 4>but of course his wife has died like eight years before.

0:03:36.325 --> 0:03:37.325
<v Speaker 5>There is no wife.

0:03:37.405 --> 0:03:40.125
<v Speaker 4>Steve Martin said, they actually when they went to final cut,

0:03:40.205 --> 0:03:41.965
<v Speaker 4>they cut a heap out of it, and he said,

0:03:41.965 --> 0:03:44.805
<v Speaker 4>I wish they hadn't because it was just the most extraordinary.

0:03:45.045 --> 0:03:48.285
<v Speaker 2>You can see the foreman scene online. Oh oh my god,

0:03:48.285 --> 0:03:51.125
<v Speaker 2>it's really missing. And watch this beautiful Yeah, it is great.

0:03:51.285 --> 0:03:53.045

0:04:01.245 --> 0:04:04.485
<v Speaker 3>The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

0:04:04.605 --> 0:04:07.125
<v Speaker 2>Christian O'Connell Show Every Friday. We got around the team

0:04:07.325 --> 0:04:09.885
<v Speaker 2>first half hour the show. We call it double thumbs

0:04:09.925 --> 0:04:12.685
<v Speaker 2>up the things that we're enjoying at the moment. Two

0:04:12.765 --> 0:04:14.805
<v Speaker 2>TV shows for me. One's a big new show on

0:04:14.845 --> 0:04:19.885
<v Speaker 2>Netflix called Boots. Set in the nineties, bully teenager joins

0:04:19.885 --> 0:04:22.164
<v Speaker 2>his best friend. They decided to impulsively go and join

0:04:22.205 --> 0:04:25.804
<v Speaker 2>the US Marines. It's about boot camp. It's about identity,

0:04:26.205 --> 0:04:30.885
<v Speaker 2>coming of age, camaraderie. It is so joyous and really funny.

0:04:30.924 --> 0:04:34.564
<v Speaker 2>I absolutely loving it. Cannot recommend it enough. Really really

0:04:34.565 --> 0:04:37.005
<v Speaker 2>really great show as well. It's very very good set

0:04:37.044 --> 0:04:39.924
<v Speaker 2>in the nineties. That's Boots on Netflix. And if you

0:04:40.125 --> 0:04:43.045
<v Speaker 2>like a TV show that is grim, will.

0:04:42.844 --> 0:04:45.364
<v Speaker 1>Break your heart. I've got the show for you.

0:04:45.885 --> 0:04:48.404
<v Speaker 2>My wife refused to watch it and keep saying to

0:04:48.404 --> 0:04:50.604
<v Speaker 2>me afterwards when I just come out, I'm quiet about

0:04:50.604 --> 0:04:52.964
<v Speaker 2>five or tens. You've got to put yourself back together.

0:04:53.325 --> 0:04:55.844
<v Speaker 2>It's the same writer and showrunn a guy called Brad

0:04:56.044 --> 0:04:58.805
<v Speaker 2>Inglesby who did Mayor of East Town, Right.

0:04:58.924 --> 0:04:59.604
<v Speaker 1>I wish it were a.

0:04:59.604 --> 0:05:02.125
<v Speaker 2>Great couple of seasons of a really great crime drama.

0:05:02.724 --> 0:05:04.844
<v Speaker 2>This is called Task. It's the best thing I've ever

0:05:04.844 --> 0:05:08.125
<v Speaker 2>seen Mark Ruffalo do. Oh my god, this is blown

0:05:08.125 --> 0:05:11.045
<v Speaker 2>me away. It's week by week and normally get quite

0:05:11.085 --> 0:05:13.085
<v Speaker 2>irritated with that because these days with selfish, I.

0:05:13.125 --> 0:05:14.044
<v Speaker 1>Want I watch it. Oh now.

0:05:14.484 --> 0:05:16.964
<v Speaker 2>I want to watch it now, ain't myself time? Give

0:05:17.005 --> 0:05:18.445
<v Speaker 2>it to me now? But it's on once a week.

0:05:18.484 --> 0:05:21.204
<v Speaker 2>It's worth it. If you really do like TV shows

0:05:21.245 --> 0:05:24.404
<v Speaker 2>that are layered and it's complex. It blurs the line

0:05:24.484 --> 0:05:28.085
<v Speaker 2>completely between good and bad. It's basically the TV show

0:05:28.125 --> 0:05:31.005
<v Speaker 2>Remember the movie Heat. Well, you've got cops and robbers,

0:05:31.044 --> 0:05:33.404
<v Speaker 2>but they kind of a grudge and respect between each other.

0:05:33.565 --> 0:05:35.605
<v Speaker 1>It's like a TV modern day version of that.

0:05:35.685 --> 0:05:37.724
<v Speaker 2>Oh you would bloody love? Oh my god, I do.

0:05:37.924 --> 0:05:40.484
<v Speaker 2>This show actually made me cry this week. It's a

0:05:40.525 --> 0:05:42.964
<v Speaker 2>beautiful show, but it is not. If you're looking for

0:05:43.005 --> 0:05:45.924
<v Speaker 2>a feel good show, stick to Boots. If you wanted

0:05:45.924 --> 0:05:49.005
<v Speaker 2>a bit grim If the National made the TV detective show,

0:05:49.404 --> 0:05:55.404
<v Speaker 2>they would make Tasks. I have loved it Rio.

0:05:55.484 --> 0:05:56.885
<v Speaker 1>What's it for you? Mate? What do you can? Double

0:05:56.885 --> 0:05:57.284
<v Speaker 1>thumbs up?

<v Speaker 2>are you enjoying staying.

0:07:12.845 --> 0:07:15.605
<v Speaker 7>With Diane Kayden who passed away in the week at

0:07:15.645 --> 0:07:18.205
<v Speaker 7>age seventy nine. And I guess this is such a

0:07:18.245 --> 0:07:21.444
<v Speaker 7>great film for her range the Godfather trilogy.

0:07:22.005 --> 0:07:23.405
<v Speaker 1>She was in Godfather one.

0:07:23.245 --> 0:07:25.884
<v Speaker 7>And two, and apparently the director Francis Ford Coppola, he

0:07:25.925 --> 0:07:29.165
<v Speaker 7>saw her in Lovers and Other Strangers and cast her

0:07:29.405 --> 0:07:31.885
<v Speaker 7>for the role of Kay Adams in The Godfather, which

0:07:31.925 --> 0:07:35.765
<v Speaker 7>was Michael Corleoni's wife who was not in the mafia,

0:07:35.885 --> 0:07:37.125
<v Speaker 7>had nothing to do with the mafia.

0:07:37.125 --> 0:07:37.485
<v Speaker 1>At Kay.

0:07:37.605 --> 0:07:40.965
<v Speaker 7>She's this white Anglo Saxon Protestant American and she provides

0:07:41.005 --> 0:07:41.645
<v Speaker 7>that kind.

0:07:41.445 --> 0:07:45.045
<v Speaker 1>Of that good that good versus evil.

0:07:45.085 --> 0:07:48.645
<v Speaker 7>She always wants Michael Corleoni sort of to legitimize the

0:07:48.685 --> 0:07:52.204
<v Speaker 7>business and tries to protect her children from that awful,

0:07:52.325 --> 0:07:56.244
<v Speaker 7>awful crime family, I suppose, and she was family.

0:07:56.804 --> 0:08:02.244
<v Speaker 5>Well, you know that's the.

0:08:02.364 --> 0:08:03.165
<v Speaker 1>Lucy Goosey.

0:08:05.245 --> 0:08:08.244
<v Speaker 2>It's not all at sea, far from it.

0:08:08.804 --> 0:08:10.884
<v Speaker 1>That's not quite the American gene lads, and you know

0:08:11.005 --> 0:08:11.485
<v Speaker 1>it come on.

0:08:12.685 --> 0:08:14.445
<v Speaker 7>Anyways, she didn't want to be in Godfather too, but

0:08:14.445 --> 0:08:17.364
<v Speaker 7>she read the script and let's do it.

0:08:17.405 --> 0:08:19.684
<v Speaker 1>And yes, it was so so good in it. And

0:08:20.405 --> 0:08:21.804
<v Speaker 1>massive respect to her.

0:08:21.885 --> 0:08:24.525
<v Speaker 2>If you're a Godfather fan, right, I cannot recommend enough

0:08:24.525 --> 0:08:26.804
<v Speaker 2>a book I read last year, Take the Canoi. It's

0:08:26.845 --> 0:08:29.925
<v Speaker 2>about the making of the Godfather. Every chapter is a

0:08:30.005 --> 0:08:33.525
<v Speaker 2>badly believable story, almost a story of the making of

0:08:33.565 --> 0:08:36.525
<v Speaker 2>the Godfather is almost just as dramatic and entertaining as

0:08:36.525 --> 0:08:39.765
<v Speaker 2>the actual movie itself. Highest dressing film ever made, Such

0:08:39.765 --> 0:08:40.845
<v Speaker 2>a great movie, incredible.

0:08:41.725 --> 0:08:43.765
<v Speaker 7>I've got one more off. Oh yeah, I'm just can

0:08:43.804 --> 0:08:48.925
<v Speaker 7>I just talk about the croissants at BP. Like the

0:08:49.005 --> 0:08:52.285
<v Speaker 7>croissants at BP I get. I often stop in there

0:08:52.324 --> 0:08:55.645
<v Speaker 7>on my way into work. Triple thumbs up for these things.

0:08:55.885 --> 0:09:00.365
<v Speaker 7>Triple they are. They're so good, they cost only cost

0:09:00.405 --> 0:09:04.724
<v Speaker 7>four dollars. There's so crisp loan. What's loon learn shmoon?

0:09:04.845 --> 0:09:05.844
<v Speaker 7>I say, compared to.

0:09:05.804 --> 0:09:06.245
<v Speaker 1>These Chris.

0:09:09.245 --> 0:09:14.005
<v Speaker 7>Smooth, they are out of the box, these things. I

0:09:14.125 --> 0:09:19.085
<v Speaker 7>highly recommend them. Croissanted BP getting you'll love it. Love

0:09:19.204 --> 0:09:20.765
<v Speaker 7>and they really are they really buttery.

0:09:20.845 --> 0:09:21.964
<v Speaker 1>They're so buttery.

0:09:22.165 --> 0:09:26.765
<v Speaker 2>They're so crunchy cross right now in trouble is very messy.

0:09:26.485 --> 0:09:26.885
<v Speaker 1>Aren't they?

0:09:26.965 --> 0:09:27.205
<v Speaker 3>Yes?

0:09:27.444 --> 0:09:29.045
<v Speaker 5>Very hard to eat with any dignity.

0:09:30.165 --> 0:09:34.645
<v Speaker 2>You're a mess after brushing for the next hour.

0:09:35.324 --> 0:09:37.405
<v Speaker 6>Maybe we should get a French person to try the

0:09:37.444 --> 0:09:40.324
<v Speaker 6>bpequas on and get a real French review to see

0:09:40.365 --> 0:09:42.324
<v Speaker 6>if this up to stand it.

0:09:43.324 --> 0:09:44.925
<v Speaker 1>I'm not remotely interested in doing that.

0:09:45.324 --> 0:09:47.805
<v Speaker 7>Put them out of blindfold and we'll give them like

0:09:47.845 --> 0:09:49.285
<v Speaker 7>different croissants.

0:09:48.765 --> 0:09:51.725
<v Speaker 2>And is matched to get get out of the whole

0:09:51.725 --> 0:09:54.725
