1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian o'connells Show podcast.

2
00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 1: We're up to the letter T in our weekly a

3
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:10,640
Speaker 1: to Z of the eighties. Very excited about this bit

4
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 1: now because Jack is a child of the nineties, not

5
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:16,599
Speaker 1: around any great decade like me and Patsy and a

6
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 1: lot of you guys the eighties. And so when we're

7
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 1: doing this, I give him a movie, the classic eighties

8
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 1: movie to do with that letter this week, the letter

9
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 1: T teen Wolf. Let's get into Michael J. Fox from

10
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 1: the eighties. Classic eighties movie Teen Wolf? Or what did

11
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: you think watching it? With different eyes? Now?

12
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 2: Bianca and I both watched it, and despite some obvious

13
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 2: weaknesses throughout the movie, we actually really enjoyed Teen Wolf.

14
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, some of it stands up really well. Other bits don't.

15
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,240
Speaker 1: Obviously it's a dated movie, but overall.

16
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 2: We're deviated from all the other eighties films I've been watching,

17
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 2: which have one thing in common completely slow. Teen Wolf

18
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 2: was well paced. He starts turning into the wolf straight away,

19
00:00:58,880 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 2: become o the teen Wolf.

20
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:01,959
Speaker 1: He gave you the team Wolf. That's what you're there.

21
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 2: First eighties movies would spend half an hour setting up. Oh,

22
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,119
Speaker 2: he's just a normal high school kid playing basketball. Then

23
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 2: he starts turning into a wolf. Love that he started

24
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,960
Speaker 2: turning into a wolf straight away. And then it kind

25
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 2: of surprised me because I thought it was going to

26
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 2: be an elephant man situation where the whole school teased

27
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,399
Speaker 2: him and he was an outcast. They loved the wolf.

28
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: No, they were shut behind us so much so. Do

29
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,119
Speaker 1: you remember the first basketball game where imagine if you're

30
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: you're watching a kid playing a basketball game, and what

31
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: of the kids a child turns into a flipping wolf. Doctor,

32
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: he's turning into a wolf. They just look at him.

33
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: The referee disc goes, okay, let's play moola. You couldn't

34
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,039
Speaker 1: got to get him a nurse, wile.

35
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 2: And ambulance and elite at the bare minimums. Start the

36
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 2: game and find out what's going on.

37
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: One of that is turned into a wolf. There's no

38
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: kind of he's different to us. The big moment that

39
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: got the big gass in the cinema, which no one

40
00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 1: saw come was when you were I was his old

41
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: man is also part human, part wolf. This bit an

42
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 1: explanation is probably long overdue. Before you're any further right,

43
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,639
Speaker 1: you need to listen to two different things here right,

44
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: imagine I can only imagine it now and I watch

45
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: it again. Yes, there's a dad. If one of my

46
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: kids came to me and they'd realize that I was

47
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 1: a wolf as well, you know that there'd be a

48
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 1: lot of drama there, the shame that I passed it on.

49
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: Listen to his old man. It's literally like it's not

50
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 1: a big deal that his son is just realized he's

51
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 1: actually a wolf. And wait, you're also a dad wolf.

52
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 1: And listen to his old man. He's so I'm drum.

53
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 2: An explanation is probably long overdo an.

54
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: Explanation, Jesus Christ. Just look at me, Look at you.

55
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 1: It's not as bad as it looks. You know about this.

56
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 1: You knew about this, and you didn't tell me. I

57
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: was hoping I wouldn't have to rehearsal. I was hoping

58
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,399
Speaker 1: it would pass you by. Well it didn't pass me by.

59
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: Landed on my face. What the hell am I going

60
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: to do the next day? Right? His dad? You think,

61
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: you go, hey, you know this is a lot fore

62
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 1: you We're gonna lie on with some counselors.

63
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 2: Don't go to school today. We've got to discuss this.

64
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: People will judge your son that's in the world. Right,

65
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 1: He just gives him a steam.

66
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 2: That's it and says, you seemed a bit upset last night.

67
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: You took it hard about the fact you've had it.

68
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 1: I'm a wealth and you're now going to live a

69
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: life as a half boy, half wolf.

70
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 2: I loved His best friend is a guy called Styles.

71
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 1: How old was that actor? Right? Because obviously Michael J. Fox,

72
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 1: all right, you're a high school kid? Is mate? Styles

73
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: could have played Michael J. Fox's dad. Seriously, who is

74
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: a flipping proper man high school buddy? Styles? Great characters.

75
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 2: Didn't you want a friend?

76
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: I still want a mate like Style?

77
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 2: Who is the party master? And the parties that they

78
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 2: made they had in the eighties looked incredib and.

79
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 1: We're like, no eighties party I went to as a

80
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: teenager or any of us. There were always some heightened

81
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 1: state like a utopia, weren't they of like it's all

82
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: about kegs of beer and the other thing? That is

83
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: amazing and got a big reaction at the time. The

84
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 1: scene where Michael J. Fox right loses his boyhood and

85
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 1: enters manhood.

86
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 2: Yeah right, facehood really because he's becomes easy.

87
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: What we're wave this is the most concerning part of

88
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: So watching it back, you're like, Okay, so she's kind

89
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,280
Speaker 1: of excited that he's he's now for Wolf and they're

90
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: about to do it.

91
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, and she doesn't want to do it with Scott.

92
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 2: She wants to.

93
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 1: Do I guess it's a thing now, isn't it. She's

94
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 1: into Wolf fun all right, you are an animal. He's

95
00:04:55,360 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 1: lost as Jerry, you're listening to the Christian Kyle's Show podcast.

96
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: This week it's about this. Today's letter is O'Connell's cue

97
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 1: Bar of the eighties. There is an amazing story that

98
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: happened about someone breaking in quite easily to bucking and

99
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: Palace and ended up not just breaking in, which being

100
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: incredible to bucking and Palace, but actually finding the Queen,

101
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: going into her bedroom, sitting on the edge of her bed,

102
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: and then having a chat with her.

103
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 2: I can't believe I've never heard did you report on

104
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 2: this patch? I think I was still at school, but

105
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 2: I do remember very clearly it happening. I remember my

106
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,559
Speaker 2: mum talking about this is unbelievable story.

107
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,840
Speaker 1: Jack Jacks Jar dug up an actual original article about

108
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,279
Speaker 1: remind people, and some people might not even know this

109
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: bizarre footnote in Bucking and Palace and the Queen's History.

110
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 2: This guy, Michael Fagan, who didn't want to do any

111
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 2: harm to the Queen, loved the queen, broke into Bucking and.

112
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 1: His intention was he just wanted to meet and have

113
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 1: a chat with herm.

114
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,559
Speaker 2: Just have a chat. He'd already first broken into Bucking

115
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 2: and Pellas one time before he met the Queen and

116
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 2: just walked around in the roof and like, ah, this

117
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 2: is cool. You can get in the Bucking and Palace.

118
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 2: He goes shimming up a drain pipe something like pink

119
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 2: panther anyway, So then he goes, I love that. I'm

120
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 2: going to come back a second time and this time

121
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 2: find the queen.

122
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 1: So on, did he have a bag of booze with him,

123
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: like a couple of tinnis. I know that he had

124
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 1: alcohol in there, and I think he I think he

125
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: opened a bottle of wine in one of the rooms

126
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: he found in Bucking pass fella asleep, right, fell asleep,

127
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: and then walk back and oh god, I'm on a job.

128
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 1: I gotta go and find the queen.

129
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 2: So he did. He walked into the Queen's room with

130
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 2: a bottle of wine. He stole from somewhere else in

131
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 2: Buckingham Pellas, which is amazing because wouldn't you just assume

132
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 2: she's got security everywhere they do?

133
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,479
Speaker 1: Now changed everything. A lot of people got fired. I

134
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: think everyone who's supposed to be guarding oh or you

135
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: have one job, don't let anyone on her bed that

136
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 1: goes with it. We shouldn't even have to be even

137
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: a quick look around the house at night. Quick, I'm

138
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: not I'm not in Buckingham Palace.

139
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,279
Speaker 2: We all do that thing at night where we just

140
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 2: make sure the doors are locked, just give it an

141
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 2: old check. Do that at the palace.

142
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 1: But it's a lot of have you seen the size

143
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 1: of It's a lot of doors. You can understand why

144
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 1: someone like us would go, ahstairs, I did it at

145
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: the other day. They're all locked door. They must be locked.

146
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 2: So amazing that he even knows how to get there,

147
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 2: because if you're walking through a palace with hundreds and

148
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 2: hundreds of rooms, how do you know.

149
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 1: He wandered around for quite one before we made it

150
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: to a promise, not just it. This is one of

151
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: my favorite bits, right obviously, right, even if you've never

152
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 1: seen it with your own eyes. Bucket and palace, right,

153
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 1: you've seen it on the news. It's probably one of

154
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: the most familiar buildings in the world. You can imagine

155
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: that if you've ever been to Learn. There are a

156
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: lot of pigeons there everywhere around the top of it

157
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 1: and up those draying pipes. There's pigeon poop everywhere. Some

158
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: got on Michael Fagan, and as he's wandering around, he

159
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 1: saw me if I do get him at the queen, I

160
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: can't be having pigeon poop on me.

161
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 2: That would be disrespecting.

162
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: Wipe some some antique Louis the fourteenth curtain, like I

163
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: found the trap. More people are upset about the pigeon

164
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 1: poople getting that you can't take of the dry cleaners.

165
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: They're not dry clean only those curtain traits. So he

166
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: whiites pigeon crap on the curtains where we go see queeny.

167
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 2: This is amazing. So then he goes into the Queen's bedroom.

168
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 2: She's asleep. He sits on the bed at seven am

169
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 2: in the morning, she wakes up. Leuiyyid, I guess again.

170
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: Have he got some sort of royal silk eye mask?

171
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 2: Takes that off and goes is this guy d.

172
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: The butler little witch is dressed down.

173
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 2: Friday, so he just has a chat with her for

174
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 2: a few minutes and then she's able to alert the

175
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 2: guards and they go, oh, sorry, we've we missed that one.

176
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 2: Apparently between a changeover of guards in front of her

177
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 2: bedroom door, there was this period of time when there

178
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 2: was no one standing there and he was able to

179
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 2: get in.

180
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: How's this? How come anyone to spot that that's the

181
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,439
Speaker 1: time they're going to attack, isn't it when there's no

182
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: one there? During that change the change of the mat

183
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 1: when you go, I'll stay and have changed over.

184
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 2: So many questions like how does anyone first just get

185
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,839
Speaker 2: in the gates they've got people there, how do they

186
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 2: get up the drain pipe? How do they get in

187
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 2: the house? And then how do they get all the

188
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 2: way through the halls to the queen's room. This is

189
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 2: amazing because they didn't have any law against going into

190
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 2: the queen's bedroom. The only thing he was charged for

191
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 2: was stealing the bottle of wine from somewhere in Buckingham.

192
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 1: He still did prison time as well. Well.

193
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 2: He then he went on to do other petty crimes

194
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 2: and he did prison time for other criminal offenses.

195
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: Tell you what though you are the king of that prisoner.

196
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: What was she like? What was she like?

197
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 2: She's actually really nice in real life.

198
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 1: Person, and that let me just talk about that bedroom

199
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: and the curtains.

200
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 2: She in real life though really short.

201
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: Swears a lot too, especially if you're confronted with her

202
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 1: when you went it sat on the edge of her bed.

203
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:49,079
Speaker 1: That what year was that?

204
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 2: Nineteen eighty two?

205
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 1: Awesome? The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

206
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 2: Letters Christian O'Connell's p of the eighties.

207
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 1: The letter P what is the eighties for you? And

208
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 1: the letter P yesterday? Then for Jackie Boy's homework each

209
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,199
Speaker 1: week when we do our ages. Then, obviously jack is

210
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,559
Speaker 1: a child of the nineties. I give him a movie

211
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 1: or a TV show from the eighties and he has

212
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 1: to watch it and report back for his millennial take

213
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 1: on it. Today. Sadly, I don't think he cared for

214
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 1: the great Powerhouse seven. They spawned seven Police Academy movies.

215
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 1: I messaged you panics yesterday when I said him when

216
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 1: it's oh wait, wait wait, because I went back a

217
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: couple of years ago and watched the first four and

218
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:41,319
Speaker 1: the first one is not a great movie. Where was

219
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: the third? And then the second. If you have the

220
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 1: rank them, it's three back in training two their first assignment.

221
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,840
Speaker 1: You go that way. The first one is not a

222
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 1: great overall war.

223
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 2: But it was too late. I already started fired up

224
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 2: Police Academy number one, and true, I can't believe from

225
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,839
Speaker 2: Police Academy one they thought there's seven movies in this

226
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 2: how the day it wasn't really a movie. It was

227
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 2: a series of sketches that took place at a police academy.

228
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think what they tried to do was what

229
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 1: airplane did really well. And later on the third one,

230
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 1: the second one, they obviously got in somebody that said, hey,

231
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 1: needs to have a little bit of structure. Movies traditionally

232
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 1: have some kind of narrative, even in a flimsy comedy

233
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 1: like this, whereas they made no effort. This was just

234
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 1: bring it all together.

235
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 2: This was just writers going, here's a bunch of characters

236
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 2: who would be funny to be in a police academy,

237
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,440
Speaker 2: and we'll give them each a funny bit, and then

238
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 2: at the end there's a big heist. But really, by

239
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 2: that stage it's such.

240
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 1: A tower for show every day. Basically, we don't need

241
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 1: to worry about the overall structure.

242
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 2: Now tell me this. I bet you watched it at

243
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,599
Speaker 2: the time as a kid, and you look up to

244
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 2: Stephen Gutenberg and he's a good looking guy, but he

245
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 2: just I know we're meant to love him as like

246
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 2: the slacker and the rebel. I just found him a

247
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 2: nuisance everywhere he went.

248
00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: He was who says that a head teacher, You were.

249
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:02,679
Speaker 2: Just causing unnecessary trouble.

250
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 1: And then of course he was that's why you were him.

251
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 1: You were a teenager, you were causing trouble. He represented

252
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,319
Speaker 1: us in it. I thought it was in the system.

253
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 2: I thought he stepped over the line.

254
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 1: And then rule maker.

255
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 2: He finally got kicked out. He so he wants to

256
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 2: be kicked out of the police academy. He's trying.

257
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 1: He doesn't know what he wants.

258
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's true because it's a nameless mess. But

259
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 2: he wants to get kicked out. He gets kicked out,

260
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 2: and then the riot happens at the end and they

261
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 2: need everybody hands on deck, need him back.

262
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: He puts on the back. They need him back, He

263
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 1: puts on the uniform. Kicked out because he's learned the lesson.

264
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: He wasn't a team player. It was all about Mahoney.

265
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,079
Speaker 1: Then he realizes he's got to serve something more than him.

266
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 1: He's back for the rights. He's learnt his lesson, he's

267
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 1: been on his hero's journey.

268
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 2: The riot scene was a complete mess. I'll give it.

269
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 2: The final scene with the with the hostage was all right,

270
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,319
Speaker 2: But there's a lot of filler in Police Academy.

271
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 1: You're not talking about the best bits in it. No,

272
00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 1: let me do one for you now, wait his wait,

273
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 1: is Michael Winslow in the studio with him? No, it's

274
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 1: still we listeners him. That was the funniest.

275
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,839
Speaker 2: But in it, Michael Winslow is the standout. He's the

276
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 2: start that I mean, that is a great unique character

277
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:16,439
Speaker 2: that you've never said no is he? In all seven.

278
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 1: That character was the only person who didn't chap out

279
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: was Michael Winslow. I think he was trying to say no,

280
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: but they got confused with all the various voices he

281
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 1: was doing at the time. But yeah, there's just so

282
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 1: many other little bits as well. The man with the

283
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: funny voices, and what about when they changed the superintendent

284
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 1: what he's called his shampoo for for various other things.

285
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: That was brilliant.

286
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 2: That must have been number two or three because we

287
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:42,359
Speaker 2: didn't get that number.

288
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: Two told you to start three, then go.

289
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 2: Don't sound like it gets much better than what was

290
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 2: in number one.

291
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:48,599
Speaker 1: He wants to market comedy.

292
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 2: All I can give it is a couple of smiles.

293
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 1: All right, Mark's out of ten? This is get down

294
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 1: to it. Police Academy won.

295
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 2: A couple of smiles, only three out of ten?

296
00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:58,680
Speaker 1: All right, will you promised me?

297
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 2: Well the thing it's got to get bet. They would

298
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,319
Speaker 2: have to be usually between one and.

299
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: Two when we have our Christmas break at the end

300
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: of the year, right and we have a nice couple

Speaker 1: one back on assignment?

304
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 2: Okay, please please? You would have to come a long

305
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:16,040
