Zodiac Takes And Popcorn Fights

A friend’s spicy reaction to our Chinese zodiac chat sends us down a rabbit hole of labels and how they stick: who among us actually takes risks, who keeps the peace, and why it changes with the room. From there we ride the week’s highs and shrugs—Hopper earns a soft yes, Crime 101 intrigues without fully landing, and a free Lego lightsaber build reminds us delight sometimes costs nothing. We trade theater hacks and loyalty perks you can use today, then get honest about expectations: why some trailers miss, why Project Hail Mary has us hopeful, and how lowering the bar can make movie nights joyful again.

We also pull back the curtain on the difference between performance and presence. A tight, punchy hour on mic is not the same as a long day at a con or an unplanned hang at Scum and Villainy. That gap matters when people judge character from clips. Sports turns the temperature up: we break down a headline trade, the math of salary caps, the lure of endorsements, and whether you should take the bag or chase a ring. Magic: The Gathering brings strategy back to earth—drafting for value, building constructed with fresh pools, and learning through losses until lists click.

Somewhere between milk texture aversions (blue milk wins by being a slushy) and a detour through streaming rights (why isn’t Tales From the Crypt where it belongs?), we find the thread that ties it all together: expectations shape experience. Lower them for shaky franchises, raise them for stories with heart, and keep them flexible enough to be surprised. We even end on an unhinged horse debate that accidentally doubles as a lesson in risk perception, stats, and how our brains love vivid but unlikely fears.

If you laughed, argued with us in your head, or picked up a new hack for your next movie night, tap follow, share this episode with a friend, and drop a review with your favorite moment. What would you choose: the payday or the championship?

Listener Feedback On Zodiac Talk

SPEAKER_02 0:30

It's a black square. That's what I see every week anyway, so it's fine.

SPEAKER_04 0:33

I was just gonna say I was gonna say, Duke, if your camera's messed up, you seeing me in a black square, then you're still seeing me.

SPEAKER_03 0:39

That's true. So what were you saying, Duke?

SPEAKER_04 0:45

Somebody somebody saw our pod and my friend watched the podcast.

SPEAKER_03 0:51

Okay. And didn't think she said.

SPEAKER_01 1:01

I'm not ready for this. I can't think this kind of pressure. Stop. I can't.

SPEAKER_02 1:04

Oh wait, I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_04 1:05

Right, there goes my stomach.

SPEAKER_02 1:07

Uh I just finished up the part of the podcast where the Chinese zodiac symbols were discussed. I didn't realize you guys went on for another hour after talking about that. I said, I know. I had we I I also agree that we should have waited until the end of the podcast, but uh and then she says, I think the metal monkey fired relationship compatibility was accurate. She is also a metal monkey, so. I think the things that a fire dragon wants or does in a relationship were pretty accurate. I don't think Lou is a peacekeeper or that you're a risk taker, typically, anyways. Winky face.

SPEAKER_03 1:47

I don't know.

Risk Taking Vs Peacekeeping

SPEAKER_04 1:48

I mean, I I I you know what? I don't know that there's been a lot of opportunity for you to be a risk taker that I've been around, to be fair. But that sounds about right though. But granted, our our usually hanging out have been whether it be Disney or con celebration, whatever, not a whole lot of risks to be taken there, you know. So I don't see the opportunity for it.

SPEAKER_02 2:16

I um I don't I mean, I think where I take risks is like I will be the one to put my neck on the block for my group of people at work, type of thing. Like I think that's where most of my traditional, like if you look at like quote unquote traditional risk, right? Jumping out of airplanes, uh sitting at the top row of you know, uh soaring over the world, you know, that that type of thing. Uh no, no, not me.

SPEAKER_04 2:45

But I don't even know if I call that one a risk. That's just like the whole like like like facing your fears type thing, is that I don't is that is that considered a risk? I don't know. I don't know, I don't know how to define that in that scenario.

SPEAKER_02 3:01

Yeah, I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_04 3:02

It's like it's like me with milk, right? It's it's like if if I decide to go ahead and try to deal with some milk, is that me taking a risk? It's like, no, it's everybody else taking a risk. If I don't handle it well, everybody else could be the one that had to deal with me.

SPEAKER_02 3:17

I mean, I still think our best chance of you uh of of milk with you is blue milk, because that's not even actually milk. It just has the word milk in it.

SPEAKER_04 3:25

But is the consistency like milk? Because that's really what it is.

SPEAKER_01 3:29

It's a slushy, bro.

SPEAKER_04 3:31

See, that would be fine. I don't you can call it what you want. Uh I can handle that. It's the consistency, really. I don't want to touch it. We haven't gone there. Y'all haven't gotten it either. So it just hasn't come up.

SPEAKER_02 3:47

Last year, I think, was the first year we didn't.

SPEAKER_04 3:50

You didn't do the year before either.

SPEAKER_02 3:51

The first year we went, we got the um the jugs.

SPEAKER_04 3:55

Those uh Yeah, but that was year one. I'm talking about the last two December ones. You guys didn't do them, the last two December ones. And if you did, it wasn't when I was around.

SPEAKER_03 4:06

All right, June it is. All right. Have fun, guys.

SPEAKER_01 4:09

Blue milk and pink milk.

SPEAKER_04 4:12

I'll watch you drink it, Jack. It's fine.

SPEAKER_02 4:16

I'll be standing way over here.

SPEAKER_04 4:20

Uh you know what the funny thing is, is like even when I when I didn't like it before I was afraid of it, when I didn't like it, I was still fine with it with a straw. It would need to be strawberry milk or chocolate milk. I still didn't want white milk. But just flavor-wise, this and I didn't think it didn't have good flavor. Regular regular milk didn't have good flavor. But if you were like, hey, you gotta drink this, like, okay, just give me a straw, I'm fine with that. Because at that point, it's it's a melted milkshake, and a melted milkshake don't bother me. So which is weird. It is weird. There's so many quirks. Yeah, there's so many quirks there. But if it was like, oh, you have to drink milk, it's like ha ha ha. It's like, well, give me a straw, I don't care. You give me a straw, I don't give a shit. As long as they don't really touch me, then we're good. It's that whole people drinking. Oh god, Kevin, that's nasty. Just thinking about trying to describe his shit is disgusting. Ask for me with the peacekeeper. I would I would say I am uh mostly. Uh it's it's it's more it's more of uh I don't know, man. It's it's weird because it looks like like I've mentioned before, where where I defend my circle, uh, whatever the circle is for that night, you know, if I'm out with whomever, if I'm with it, it could be people I just met that night. Um and I'll defend them. But overall, I'm usually not looking to put anybody else in a situation. I'm looking to put myself in a situation. You know what I mean? I I'm gonna keep the peace for everybody else, but I don't necessarily do that for me. So it's kind of hard. It's like, okay, I could see you're I'm not a peacemaker at times, but overall, uh, I'm usually pretty chill. It's like, no, not worth it, not worth it, not worth it. But the moment it is worth it, oh, I'm going all out. I'm I'm I like if I'm getting to a fight, I need to put you in the hospital so you know not to do anything else again ever in the future. Like it needs to be a lesson. But I grew up, you know, military style, punitive damages. You need to do something once, you know. It's like growing up making your bed. You make your bed once, or somebody's coming in and pulling that bed apart because you made it incorrectly and you gotta start all over. So just get it right in the first place. So if I'm fighting somebody like like one of my last fights in New Jersey, a long time ago, like 30 years ago, whatever it was, 35 years ago, I got in a fight. You know, you know, I made sure I tore that dude up, you know, broken leg, broken arm, the whole thing. It's like that way, and you know, you don't fight again. You just do it once and you don't have to worry about it in the future.

SPEAKER_02 6:53

So you're you're a more pieces maker.

SPEAKER_04 6:56

Yeah, see.

SPEAKER_02 6:59

Anyway, where's the slide whistle? Come on, Jack.

SPEAKER_04 7:03

Exactly. Pieces maker. Man, my nickname was Reese's in friggin' New Jersey. All the pieces I made. But but yeah, no, a lot of times though, because like I mess around, y'all, y'all know I mess around a lot. But at the end of the day, there's just not enough that bothers me for it to be a real problem. It's like I'll talk about like uh like some of the magic dudes out here, they're so less when it comes to stuff and so irrational when it comes to stuff. I'll poke the bear and I'll just stay stay stuck like in the Discord and then sit back, and I won't comment again the rest of the time. They're all going back and forth, and it's fantastic. I'm just sitting there just with my popcorn the mean, the popcorn meme, that is me the whole time. I drop, and this actually happened uh in the last couple of months. I dropped one comment, and after that, dude, there's probably been 700 messages after that, and not one of them is for me. It's great.

SPEAKER_01 8:04

But overall, though, right?

Milk Texture Phobia And Blue Milk

SPEAKER_04 8:07

It's like I don't even know. Like after after a while, I'm like, what is going on here? But at the end of the day, though, I I don't care all that much about it. It's like, it's like I'm kind of like Jack sometimes. I want to see the world burn. Uh, but in that particular incident where it was politics, it was like, look, man, y'all not making any change. Y'all standing on the corner with your billboards uh aren't making any change. But go ahead, talk about it, have fun. I'll I'll I'll laugh at you. Um and nothing, and then at the end at the end of the day, nothing changed. It was like, okay, great. Uh, but they feel strongly about it. So we'll power to them if they think if it makes them feel better, great. But I don't care enough to actually like properly, quote unquote, properly engage, debate, all that. I don't care enough. It's like, I got I got other things to do, man. I got it, I got other things to bitch about, like everything else. I mean, I'll make up shit to bitch about.

SPEAKER_01 9:03

Lou, that's not actually a problem. No, it is. It is.

SPEAKER_04 9:07

This is like trust me, I'll I'll make it work.

SPEAKER_02 9:10

I am I I am guessing that um the reaction was based mostly on they get she gets exposed to this little tiny slice of our lives, right? Like for sure. And the podcast is definitely a distillation of us, right? Good and bad, right? That, you know, a whole weekend at Disneyland or a whole week at Comic-Con or whatever. And I think like your opinion would change slightly of us as opposed to just kind of this yeah, I'm gonna say like sensationalized version, right? Because you're getting you're getting an hour and a half of us like trying to put a show on, right? Not us just sitting around a table exhausted after, you know, 12 hours at Comic Con, you know, just staring at each other going, what the fuck did we why what? Why are we what are we doing?

SPEAKER_04 10:05

This guy, 12 hours is half the day. That's what I'm saying. We're already there. We're at the work. Yeah. Like I think I think we're usually at Comic Con like 20 hours. Remember back in the day when we did we were there 20 hours?

SPEAKER_01 10:19

Legit.

SPEAKER_04 10:20

That oh man, those that was crazy. I'm glad we didn't have these.

SPEAKER_01 10:26

One of the last times I actually jumped over the train because it was stopped in front of the convention center. And I'm like, I ain't going around this train. I climbed up on the train and went off on the other side.

SPEAKER_03 10:37

Oh, wow. Damn. Okay, that's crazy.

SPEAKER_01 10:44

But I guess people actually die from that. I was reading an article about it. Like, not during Comic-Con, just normal. Like San Diego homeless people. They'd be climbing up there and dying.

SPEAKER_04 10:54

Like how how? What are they like what are they just to try to cross the track?

SPEAKER_01 10:57

They like fall and then the train decides to move and they go under the train like dummies.

SPEAKER_04 11:04

Yeah, that's not yeah, zero chance of that happening.

SPEAKER_01 11:09

Only if somebody's twisting their mustache.

SPEAKER_04 11:13

Right. Fucking Boris and Atasha over here. Um you know what's funny? I I would I would I would argue that it's peace keep like I said, peacekeeping for others. Like uh hypothetical, like you you two strangers, I'm trying to keep the peace between you two, but I'm okay being confrontational as hell when it comes to me.

SPEAKER_01 11:45

I think it's because it would annoy you. You don't want the drama, you don't want to be around the drama that comes with other people being drama to you. Yeah. Otherwise, you're the one that's causing the shit. Who doesn't care if he's the drama? Yeah. He just doesn't want to hear other people like bickering next to him. Like, shut the fuck up.

SPEAKER_04 12:04

Especially if it's illogical bickering. Like, if if like I don't mind, like you're at a restaurant, you're at wherever, store, you hear people having a conversation, sometimes a debate amongst themselves, friends or whatever, and you hear dumb shit. It's like, that don't even make any sense. Like, what it's like I want to jump in the conversation and correct him. It's like, no, that first of all, that's wrong information. Uh, second of all, that's that's not logical. You it may be irrational, but it's not logical. It's like I drives me freaking crazy.

SPEAKER_01 12:34

But I almost did that uh when we were uh watching Hoppers this weekend. They showed the the Mando and Grogu trailer. And dad's like, he says to his guy, he's like, look, it's Baby Yoda. And so like for the whole trailer, it's like, oh, baby Yoda. I'm like, motherfucker, his name is right there.

unknown 12:49

Right?

SPEAKER_01 12:50

It's not been Baby Yoda's in the motherfucking title. He's like, let me not improve your children though.

SPEAKER_03 12:58

Right, they got rid of Baby Yoda in 2021, y'all. Yeah. People still suffering for who took the shot. Poor thing.

SPEAKER_01 13:15

I'm not suffering. I mean, I'm suffering in many other ways that are unrelated. Well, I guess you're suffering because I'm still alive. The shot did not kill me.

SPEAKER_03 13:25

And now you're stuck with me. Darn. How will I manage? How will you? But okay, if that explains your situation, Duke, because I was all like, uh, how does that fit for you?

SPEAKER_04 13:47

How does it fit for me? I'm like, alright. Uh, but you're right though. I mean, she's looking at uh the this 90 minutes uh as however many episodes she's seen. 90 minutes of us doing this. Um I I don't I don't think people who watch this would get the same impression of us or or or let me change that. The people who watch this and have and have an idea, go ahead and spend this 90 minutes, spend 90 minutes with us at Scum and Villainy and uh and see what you think.

SPEAKER_01 14:19

Yeah, when it's not recorded for court purposes.

SPEAKER_04 14:23

Right, and we're at the bar in in Hollywood at the pop culture sci-fi bar. Uh yeah, y'all gonna be like, we need to hang out with these dudes way more often.

SPEAKER_01 14:36

Because we are we still need jobs, so I mean we can't have video evidence. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 14:43

We can't have all that out there. Well last thing I need is job hunting, and somebody pulls up his pod and is like, oh shit. You cannot work in bold.

SPEAKER_02 14:57

I mean after the video of uh Jack trying to sing the Demon Hunter song comes out, I think he's gonna be lucky to still have a job.

SPEAKER_03 15:07

Right. I remember tickets on that, and I know I sucked.

SPEAKER_01 15:13

I knew I sucked when those up there.

SPEAKER_04 15:15

Hey, on the bright side, nobody would have known it was the Demon Hunter song.

SPEAKER_00 15:21

Yeah.

Defending Friends And Old-School Punishment

SPEAKER_04 15:23

What song is this from the song at all? It's like, oh, is that an actual song? It's like we don't know.

SPEAKER_01 15:33

Is somebody killing a cat?

SPEAKER_04 15:37

Oh man. Oh we uh so yeah, Hoppers, uh switching over to movies, saw it, thought it was good, didn't think it was great, but I enjoyed the hell out of it.

SPEAKER_01 15:51

I agree, I enjoyed it, but I don't have to watch it again. Like I didn't watch Zootopia 2 before I watch Hoppers again.

SPEAKER_03 16:00

I don't think I've seen Zootopia 2 yet. With the snake? Oh yeah, I definitely haven't seen it. Oh yeah, no, so good. So good.

SPEAKER_01 16:09

Even better than the first one.

SPEAKER_04 16:12

I don't think it's streaming yet though.

SPEAKER_01 16:14

Uh the 11th, I think. It's gonna be on Disney on the 11th, I think. This week?

SPEAKER_04 16:21

Yeah, that's weird. A Wednesday?

SPEAKER_01 16:24

Hopper's obviously 88 million worldwide the biggest original animated debut since Coco.

SPEAKER_03 16:32

Oh you know, I enjoyed Coco more than I thought I was going to. That movie was good too. But yeah, Hopper, I guess I enjoyed it. I definitely teared teared up at the end. But yeah, but it was like, alright, saw it, I'm good. Beaverton is my neighbor.

SPEAKER_04 16:57

I'm about to ask you, how far how far are you from I remember your text about it's based in Beaverton, Oregon? How far are you from Beaverton, Oregon?

SPEAKER_03 17:05

Ten minutes, maybe. Not even ten minutes. Damn. Is there a university there, like in the movie?

SPEAKER_04 17:16

Um Beaver was it Beaverton University?

SPEAKER_03 17:19

Which look just like Monsters University. There's no Beaverton University. That would be pretty funny though. Ton of Beaver. You have to bring the beaver back. So what else? Uh did I watch it? Yeah, what was I forgotten? What was our Tuesday movie?

SPEAKER_01 17:42

Oh, Crime 101.

SPEAKER_04 17:44

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 17:45

But it was gonna be late as fuck, and you weren't sure if you were gonna go.

SPEAKER_04 17:48

Yeah, we we did go. Um long, uh, slow burn. Uh I enjoyed it for the most part. I don't know, it's weird feeling. I enjoyed it, but I wouldn't say I was satisfied with it. It's hard to it's hard to describe that, but I don't know. It seemed like something was missing, whether it be the end or in the middle, but it's like something was missing from that movie that like needed to tie some pieces together, even though it was all wrapped up, don't get me wrong, they settled what they needed to settle. But I I wouldn't I would definitely not sit here and say, hey, you guys need to rush out and watch this. That's definitely not the case. Um, but you know, it was five bucks, five fifty. I'm not gonna cry about it.

SPEAKER_01 18:33

Yeah, what are you gonna do?

SPEAKER_04 18:35

Yeah. And then no movie this week, uh, because OGL has uh I think I think her daughter has a show or something like that that kills into the time. So what we might do, I didn't think about it though, if the schedule works out. Uh I haven't credits still because I keep watching all these cheap movies, so I don't use my credits. Um maybe tomorrow, uh, go watch, I think the The Bride came out this weekend. And watch it on Monday tomorrow instead of Tuesday, since there's no real opportunity Tuesday. I'm like, hey, finally use up some of these credits.

SPEAKER_02 19:13

Yeah, I was trying to find a good time around me for the bride on Tuesday, and there's not really Oh, no good time? No. Either like super early or super late. What was that?

SPEAKER_04 19:23

Like the way the way the way Jack and I usually go to Cinemark, what did you have out there that you go to?

SPEAKER_02 19:28

Uh I have Cinemark. Um Okay. We have Cinemark Regal, and we actually do have an AMC here.

SPEAKER_04 19:35

So do you go to the Cinemark often?

SPEAKER_02 19:39

Um, it's kind of our second choice. Our main one that's like five minutes away is a Regal. So that's the one we probably go to like 85 to 90% of the time.

SPEAKER_04 19:48

And then I would say my first choice, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 19:51

The Cinemark would be probably like six to eight percent in the AMC. We've gone a couple times. It used to be before it was an AMC, it was uh there was a small thing here called Cinetopia, and they were the first ones here to have like the Ottomans in the aisle and the big coat comfy seats and and all that kind of like give it give you a whole experience as opposed to just selling you a seat in a room.

SPEAKER_04 20:20

No thanks. But then that sounds that sounds too loose. Why I could see kids acting a fool, kids being the high school kids.

SPEAKER_02 20:28

Uh if I remember correctly, all the tickets were the same price, so it kind of priced out kids.

SPEAKER_04 20:33

Oh, well that's good.

SPEAKER_02 20:35

So, and at least you know if they were their their parents. Like I always I always feel like if you pay a kid's price, then your parents seem to allow the kids to be more out of control. But if they're paying the full price, like they're more like, hey, you little fucker. We you paid fifteen dollars, I paid fifteen dollars for this. You're gonna behave yourself, you know, as opposed to we paid ten dollars or whatever, you know.

SPEAKER_04 20:59

Uh or five, yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 21:02

So um, yeah. So with it being the regular the same price as as the adults, you had a lot less kids and teenagers there.

SPEAKER_04 21:12

Yeah, I was just thinking of like if you were going to Cinemart more regularly, I'm like, do you have the same rewards program that Jack and I have? And if not, shit, just download the app and log in as me. Get yourself 20% off of concessions.

SPEAKER_02 21:26

Uh Regal does that. And since we go to Regal or Regal, Regal has different things. So they'll have like free popcorn Tuesdays or upgraded, or it'd be like a two dollar.

SPEAKER_04 21:37

Yeah. Um I remember that a decade ago when I used to go. Because Regal used to be my name number one until um I got the rewards program, and now it's I only really go to Cinemark if I can help it.

SPEAKER_03 21:50

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 21:52

So um yeah, we'll see how I gotta talk to my Tuesday clan, my Tuesday group, and see what they how they're feeling.

Poking The Bear In Discord

SPEAKER_04 22:04

Yeah, I think that that was really it for me for movies. I mean, it was the two the Tuesday Crime 101s and it was Hopper's yesterday. Uh five of us that went. You know, the basically the uh oh girl and her little one, and then little ones bestie and and her mom. Uh so the five of us went. But yeah, I didn't really watch I mean, not even on, you know, like home. I didn't really pop anything at home. Um New magic set came out, so most of my time was dealing with that uh since Tuesday, like I told you guys last week. So since Tuesday to today.

SPEAKER_02 22:39

And how did that work out for you?

SPEAKER_04 22:40

Quiet, yeah. Mostly quite it's pretty good. I I did fairly well with the once one format. And I'm just now that I've basically finished that because I got all the cards that I want by playing that format, the drafts, where you open up packs to build a deck, blah, blah, blah. I got so many cards from that uh that I have enough to build the constructed stuff. And I'm just starting that today, the building. So this week we'll be playing it and see how it goes. The little bit that I've done, you know, to the test that I have, it's going okay. I'm about 50-50, which is not bad considering I just put the shit together and I have no idea what I'm up against. So now that I have opportunity and some feedback um to make adjustments, I'll make the adjustments this week and give it a shot and I'll report back next week. Let you know how I did. But I did surprisingly well on the on the draft part of it. I was like, I'm just doing this to get the cart, and it turns out I did okay playing it. Don't get me wrong, I did some 0-2s uh uh uh about four or five times, but I also did some four-os, four ones. Four is the was the max you can once once you get the four wins or two losses, the tournament's over. So but I did a lot uh I would say three two was was the one I did the most. More winning than losing, so I'll take it.

SPEAKER_01 24:02

As one does.

SPEAKER_04 24:03

And I'll say, and and more importantly, I enjoyed it. Like the last two sets or two sets ago, three sets ago, it wasn't fun. This one's fun. Like, I won't play that format anymore because it's inefficient, because I have all the cards that I need, and playing that is just won't get me what I want. Uh but I but if it was like if I'm bored, it's like ah screw the efficiency, I'd play it just because it was entertaining. Next new set, seven weeks. So I got seven weeks to play around with my building my own stuff, and then go from there. But yeah, that was basically my week, man.

SPEAKER_03 24:37

It was really quiet. Not a whole hell of a lot went on. Word. I watched uh go ahead, Jackson. Shit.

SPEAKER_01 24:46

Same. I didn't do a whole lot. Um let me look at my calendar. Was anything on my calendar for this last week?

SPEAKER_04 24:53

Oh, this guy. He's got a calendar.

SPEAKER_01 24:56

I do. This freaking guy. Oh, I took Thursday off.

SPEAKER_03 25:01

Um because uh wife is uh getting old and um you know things.

SPEAKER_01 25:10

But also since um ever since she was pregnant the first time, she's had a really bad like heartburn, acid reflux. So um she got an endoscopy. It's like a colonoscopy, but for your throat.

SPEAKER_03 25:24

But for your throat.

SPEAKER_01 25:25

They use the same camera. They do. I told her make sure they don't use the same camera. This one goes in your mouth and this one goes in your boat. Wait, wait, wait. Sorry. This one goes in your mouth.

SPEAKER_04 25:35

They would ask the mouth. Is that what I heard?

SPEAKER_01 25:38

I don't know why the doctor gets to do it and I can't.

SPEAKER_04 25:42

No, but I guess she has like all kinds of like ulcers in her esophagus now.

SPEAKER_04 26:02

Oh, what the hell?

SPEAKER_01 26:03

Right. So like putting her on some kind of acid reflux meds or something. But yeah, no. Ever since she was pregnant the first time, she's had really bad acid reflux. Well, at least she's finally getting around to fixing it.

SPEAKER_03 26:18

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 26:19

Only it took 15 years. Yeah, but whatever.

SPEAKER_01 26:22

Nah. He has two pops out, so it's fine. It's fine.

SPEAKER_04 27:51

All right, all right. I'm all looking over. I'm like, it's right there. I could have put it in a box.

Um shh, today. Right. So then today we had um we went to Via Brazil for brunch.

SPEAKER_04 28:06

Yeah, where you ate slow as a muffo.

SPEAKER_01 28:09

So you just got pictures of the second plate, though.

SPEAKER_04 28:14

There is no scenario where there should be that much meat on a plate. I don't care if it's first serve or second serve. It shows up, you eat it. But I shows up. That's what I'm saying. Why are you so slow?

SPEAKER_01 28:28

That's true.

SPEAKER_04 28:29

It gets on your plate, you eat it. Plus, you didn't start getting cold. Man.

SPEAKER_01 28:34

Cold meat? Yeah, that's true.

The lightsaber build, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 28:48

Oh, this guy. Was it a long line? We were there for about an hour. Oh, that's wow. Is that lightsaber like mid-light? It is a little short, right?

SPEAKER_04 29:05

SPEAKER_03 29:47

Also, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 29:51

SPEAKER_04 30:00

Well, damn.

SPEAKER_03 30:01

If I'd have paid attention more, I might have actually freaking went. And then else do you think? I mean Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 30:15

I mean, you would have had to put pants on, Lou. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 30:18

Yeah, I was gonna say, I mean, I did put shorts on for this in case I stood up for whatever reason. That's true. I always put shorts on I always put shorts on for this, just in case.

SPEAKER_02 30:27

The first entire podcast, but then I realized oh.

SPEAKER_01 30:38

That's good. That was shorts on.

SPEAKER_02 30:41

Oh, if you ever want to if you ever want to uh get a good laugh, uh the Winnie the Pooh Reddit. People are Winnie the Poohing.

SPEAKER_03 30:51

Oh god. Don't have your kids around, is all I'm saying. I mean nothing after that just um just um cleaning out the garage.

SPEAKER_01 31:14

Trying to finally get my cars up in there. After what is that? Good luck with that everything above. Um no, actually I threw a bunch of shit out. Some of it was like the boxes and stuff, they're like full of like beach towels and stuff. So that shit just gets her put in the house, wash it and put it away.

SPEAKER_03 31:34

A box full of beach towels. Lou, you lost Lou at beach. Yeah, sorry. Yeah, I was gonna say I don't I don't need a beach towel. I'm good.

Demon Hunter Karaoke And Theater Habits

SPEAKER_04 32:16

Yeah, there's a possibility. I don't know, but if we were, it'd be like a quick, you know, get in, get out type of thing. I can't imagine we'd be there long. Not saying not enough time to swim, because there would be enough time, I would think. As long as it's not a late arrival, you know what I mean? Because we're probably having an early drive in the morning.

SPEAKER_03 32:34

We're boring, Jack. It might be. Depends.

SPEAKER_04 32:49

What if what if what if I got like a soul glow going on? I might get in a pool with some soul glow. Give my curls, get my hair some curls.

SPEAKER_02 32:55

Just wrap your head. It's fine. That's what I'd do. Yeah. Like Erica Bottom.

SPEAKER_04 33:05

I was gonna say, I I think that's a different part of the world that where they do that. Erica Bottom towels around your head. Because if I do that, they won't let me on the plane.

SPEAKER_01 33:18

You're driving, it's fine.

SPEAKER_04 33:20

Oh, that is true. But then my head's all stiff because the towel's hitting the the freaking roof of the car.

SPEAKER_03 33:29

Yeah, that's why your head's all stiff.

SPEAKER_01 33:35

Giving away my.

SPEAKER_02 33:38

That is exactly why his head will be stiff for eight hours, and then he's gonna have to go to the doctor.

SPEAKER_04 33:46

Hey, at least that at least that makes like three drivers. That helps.

SPEAKER_03 33:51

Right? True.

SPEAKER_02 33:54

Granted, when we drove in the summer when you guys are in the back while he's driving.

SPEAKER_03 34:01

Man, I ain't shy, I don't give a shit. Oh, that's fair. He won't look anyway, it's his mom. I mean, I hope he's not trying to look.

SPEAKER_04 34:10

Yeah, right? It's like, well, I hope he's not trying to look. I mean, Homer, I mean, that shit does come out this summer around that same weekend.

SPEAKER_03 34:25

Oh man.

SPEAKER_04 34:28

Can't wait to see what her comments are on this one next week.

SPEAKER_01 34:31

All right, Mark at 33 minutes next week is when Lou's getting hit with the shoe.

SPEAKER_04 34:36

Right. I'm all like, I'm waiting. I'm about to get I'm gonna get a text message 34 minutes in to the pie.

SPEAKER_03 34:46

What about you, Duke? What was your week? Uh, I saw War Machine on Netflix.

SPEAKER_02 34:57

No, it was uh That was my first thought guy who plays Reacher.

SPEAKER_03 35:02

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 35:03

And like they fight a robot. Like, I don't know. The trailer kind of like gave away all the he's like uh they're like in Ranger School doing their final kind of test, and then like a meteor flies over the earth and drops pieces into the ground, and then the that ends up being aliens, and then it's him and the group of uh other recruits fighting fighting an unstoppable force. So um it's one of those movies where like it's he's in like 90% of it, and then they're like Jai Courtney and Dennis Quaid and SA Morales are all in it too, but they're all in it for literally like five minutes. Like like maybe two days worth of shooting type of thing. Um and it was fine. I mean it's it's a Saturday afternoon, like it's it is what like the old I would equate it to like what the the old Steven Segal Jean-Claude Van Damme movies were for us back in the day where they were just like all kind of the same, but you know, like you're like, oh, I like that guy, so I'll watch that movie type of thing. That was really what it was for me. Like I was like, oh. And it was fine. I mean, it was again, it's not something I will need to go and revisit anytime soon, but um and then uh Cold Storage, which is the movie about the guy from not about the guy, uh starring the guy from Stranger Things. Um they work in like a self-storage place.

SPEAKER_04 36:35

Um like five guys in Stranger Things.

SPEAKER_02 36:38

Together Steve.

SPEAKER_03 36:40

Steve. Steve. That's a guy who worked at the ice cream parlor. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 36:47

Um and they were like they are they're in like a uh a uh self self-storage facility that was once a government uh like government facility, and so then things happen. They did, and then and then they sold it and turned it into a not bottoms. Not bottoms. Um and then turned it into a robe D. What? Are you wearing a robe? No. It was my jacket that I usually wear.

SPEAKER_04 37:24

That you usually wear. You never wear a jacket, it's some robe shirt.

SPEAKER_02 37:29

I know, I could I should I should alright, next week I'll wear the robe. Next week I'll break out the Japanese robe. Um that'll be my official.

SPEAKER_03 37:37

Yeah, I forgot you did that.

Hopper, Zootopia 2, And Box Office

SPEAKER_02 37:38

Yeah. So, uh, and that was fine. Like there was um Liam Neeson was in it, but I I don't know if that means anything anymore since he's kind of in everything. Um but there were some funny parts, but again, it's the you know, the the aliens coming to earth type of thing. But it was fine. Nothing uh nothing above what you would expect a movie like that to kind of like the sci-fi horror slash thriller type genre. A couple jump scares, but not like a ton of like woo type things. Uh mostly just kind of gross gross out humor. Also has its place. It's fine. But again, it's one of those movies where I think like the trailer and stuff kind of presented it as almost like a comedy, but there really isn't that much comedy in it. Like street, like there isn't that much like ha ha uh funny comedy. It's more of hey, this situation is wild and not of the you know, I was not expecting to have to deal with this today when I woke up. Some wild and crazy guys. Yeah, exactly. So um, yeah, that was my uh media ingestion for the week. And this weekend was super, super quiet. Taxes already accepted, bang bang, already got the text messages saying your taxes have been accepted. And I was like, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 39:05

So yes, buy me with some more missiles. Um, so hopefully we'll get that back later this week. But yeah. Refund? Yeah, that shit takes two to three weeks.

SPEAKER_04 39:22

Oh, that that was little girl sneezing from the other room with the door closed.

SPEAKER_02 39:27

It's like, Lou, did you just adopt a dog? What's going on?

SPEAKER_04 39:30

No, that was like a third time the door was closed. Yeah, and yeah, you just kind of go with it.

SPEAKER_02 39:39

Alright, so uh Mark's.

SPEAKER_04 39:41

She's allergic to the pod because that's what she's watching. She's watching last week's pod.

SPEAKER_02 39:45

So 39 minutes will be the second time that Lou gets hit with the shoe.

SPEAKER_03 39:49

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. It's been, yeah. I can't believe y'all heard that.

SPEAKER_01 40:03

Oh, we finished um Bridgerton too, the newest season. It was okay. I haven't started that best season.

SPEAKER_04 40:13

I can't imagine it's gonna be that good when they know who the girl is now.

SPEAKER_01 40:17

That's what I said, right? So it's basically a Cinderella kind of story. Like they have uh a ball and Benny. Yeah, I remember seeing the trailer, right? And she like loses her glove or some shit, and he's like spends the whole season trying to find her.

SPEAKER_04 40:33

Yeah. When I saw the trailer, that was my first thought. I'm like, oh, it's Cinderella. They had lost ideas.

SPEAKER_01 40:39

Evil stepmom and stepsisters and everything, dude. Jeez.

SPEAKER_04 40:43

Okay. Okay. Uh they ran out of ideas for Bridgetan. Got it.

SPEAKER_01 40:48

But there are some boobs, so it's fine. Cute Asian girls.

SPEAKER_04 40:51

Oh, that that makes up for that. I can I can take an unoriginal yeah, I can take an unoriginal story for uh for boobs. Boobs always win.

SPEAKER_01 40:58

100%. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 41:00

Yeah, every time.

SPEAKER_03 41:01

Like I told y'all.

SPEAKER_04 41:03

I mean, it's worth the watch, but don't rush to it.

SPEAKER_01 41:06

Yeah. You're not missing a whole lot. It's worth it if you like Bridgerton.

SPEAKER_03 41:13

I'm missing boobs, apparently. Dearest gentle reader. But the queen still lets her do it.

SPEAKER_01 41:22

Like there, Lady Whistledown's still a thing, and the queen makes her do it.

SPEAKER_04 41:26

I was gonna say, I thought I would see it seemed like the queen, yeah, was really into it and would force the issue.

SPEAKER_03 41:31

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 41:33

I could see Penal Ope being like, nah, not down. And then Queen's like, yeah, you are.

SPEAKER_01 41:39

That's 100% what happens. You know everything, Lou. Oh, there you go.

SPEAKER_04 41:44

I just got to forward to the part with boobs, and I'm done with the series.

SPEAKER_01 41:51

Or you can see them on misterskin.com.

SPEAKER_04 41:56

He got a sponsorship back. He got a sponsorship back. I I just I don't know. I never understood shows like that. Where if it like, or whatever. If it's rated R, how do you not have nudity? Doesn't make any sense to me. Again, like I told y'all last week before, it's a waste of a rating R if you don't have nudity.

SPEAKER_01 42:17

But I mean, we grew up in the 80s where everything was rated R had nudity.

SPEAKER_04 42:21

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Even when I watched uh whatever the hell I that those old movies that I watched last week, I was watching one of them, I think it was Time Cop, and I was like, why are there boobs in this, but okay. It was like some of those like something like this doesn't make any sense. Never at all. Right, you know the rules, right? I don't I want I want no story in my porn and no porn in my story. That's the that's how it works. And I'm sitting here watching it and I I'm not 100% sure it was time cop, but I think it was, but which everyone I was watching, it was just like, okay, you're watching, you're watching boobs. Why are they there? But I'm not sad, so yeah. Let me rewind real quick.

SPEAKER_02 43:09

And pause.

SPEAKER_04 43:11

You're right. You hit that 10-second rewind button, it's like click. It's like, oh, okay. It's like, oh, I missed it. Click.

SPEAKER_03 43:21

Oh man.

SPEAKER_04 43:23

Whoa, did Duke freeze? Okay, like what is he just not moving?

SPEAKER_01 43:27

I was just supposed to say that. Okay, you kind of had a George Lucas eyes going off for a second there.

SPEAKER_03 43:33

It's like, oh, whoa, that's kind of cool.

SPEAKER_04 43:39

No, where he just where he's just kind of like a little bit closed, a little bit off the side, and it was just like Lucas.

SPEAKER_02 43:46

I'm here, but I'm doing camera.

SPEAKER_04 43:50

You know how Lucas, sometimes he's just like, yeah, you know, I don't know, that's pretty cool.

SPEAKER_02 43:54

Uh did either of you see the trailer for Beef Season 2? I don't think I've ever watched Beef Season 1. So Beef Season 1 had um had Glenn from The Walking Dead and Ali Wong. And it was good. Uh season two actually has Oscar Isaac and Carrie Mulligan. I was like, oh shit, okay. All right. Like I was like, alright. I'm I'm about beef with some more Oscar Isaac beef. Is it about rap beef? Oh wow. That or meat. Yes, it's about rap. They're rapping. I would watch this car as it would be a rapper.

SPEAKER_04 44:36

Well, there's a lot of beef with the rappers, so yeah. Makes sense.

Local Theaters, Rewards, And Scheduling

SPEAKER_02 44:41

It's yeah, it's kind of like season one was just like a car accident type of thing, and then it became uh the following somebody home type of thing. So it was like Shit Lou was talking about earlier. Um and then it just becomes a it goes out of spins out of control. Uh so it's interesting that they've turned it into like an anthology series as opposed to continuing on with the same characters, you know? Yeah. So like I said, up in my feet earlier this week, so I was looking at it just to confirm because they didn't actually list like a date or anything. Um what'd you guys think of the lantern's trailer? I liked it.

SPEAKER_03 45:19

Week.

SPEAKER_02 45:20

I love myself some Coach Taylor, so. Well, they're not gonna give you anything in the trailer, Lou. I mean, what like I don't know.

SPEAKER_04 45:29

Wait, wait, they're not gonna give you anything in the trailer that makes you want to actually watch the show? I mean, I already cop show.

SPEAKER_01 45:38

And he's just a crap show. Exactly.

SPEAKER_04 45:41

It was crap.

SPEAKER_01 45:43

They dropped the shop.

SPEAKER_04 45:44

And and and and and who has a lot of unnecessary F bombs. Um it was like they made a point just to say, like, hey, we're hard. Like, fuck off, you're not.

SPEAKER_02 45:54

Um they just use goddamn fucking unnecessary fucking F-bombs. It just fucked, man. They're just fuck shit.

SPEAKER_03 46:11

I mean, you got a suit, an actual suit, and I don't remember that being a thing.

SPEAKER_04 46:20

Um with with those two anyway. With uh Hal and John or whatever it is. So I was like, alright. I always thought the suit was more the ring-based, not actual clothing. But that might not be the case. So I don't I don't know that. I don't know a lot of the lantern lore. I'd like to think they're gonna bring in the red and the yellow by the end of it. That would be kind of cool if they did. But I don't know, but it's obviously part of the bigger universe that uh that gun is gonna be fired from here soon uh with the whole buyout. Well, I expect to happen, or he'll quit. Um because Commandos will poorly that.

SPEAKER_01 47:02

Then he can come back to Marvel and do more Guardians movies.

SPEAKER_04 47:05

Honestly, that is that is already the rumor that's happening, is that that's exactly what's gonna happen. Uh Paramount is going to fire him. Um and mainly because his shows have not done well. I like Creature Commandos, but it didn't do well. Superman did not do well. People are expecting Supergirl to lose money, all this stuff, so they expect him to get fired, uh, and then he'll go back to Marvel. That that's exactly what the talk is.

SPEAKER_01 47:33

But it has crypto and baby crypto. How is that movie gonna lose money?

SPEAKER_03 47:39

Because it doesn't look good, and it has Lobo in it. He's probably the only thing that's gonna be good about that movie. Ain't nobody talking about Supergirl.

SPEAKER_04 47:48

They're talking about Lobo. I mean, you you right there, you brought up Lobo and Crypto before you brought up Supergirl. I don't know if you care about Supergirl. Exactly. So this will be one of those, it'll it'll probably get a lot of you, it'll lose money in the theater and get a lot of watches at home. Oh, once it hits uh HBO Max, it'll it'll do well there. Uh, but nobody wants to go to the theater to watch that movie. I mean, I'll go just because it'll be 550. But I'm not excited about that. Not excited about Lanards, not excited about Mando and Grogu. Uh, like I told you earlier in the text, I expect it to be like Star Trek, a big ass episode instead of an actual movie. And but that's good though. I have all these low expectations, which means it'll be great when I watch it.

SPEAKER_01 48:36

Exactly.

SPEAKER_03 48:38

See, you need to lower your expectations. And then you can just be happy. If you expect shit, and you just, you know, you get like a shiny shit, then you're good. Are you looking forward to Project Hail Mary? Yes.

SPEAKER_04 48:57

That one, especially the new the new trailer where they show more of Rocky. Uh, I kind of like that. Whether it's like, okay, could we not make this a hidden thing? Like, why are we making this like, oh, let's not show the alien? Um then the next trailer had a a bunch of them in it, and and that that looks good. Uh looks like there's gonna be some good character growth uh from from when he starts off with this mission to you see as the trailer develops to the end of it. That makes you want to watch it, unlike Green Lantern, where it's just bitchy. Uh, dude is just bitchy the whole time, other guys is just like has no emotion whatsoever. Granted, I know that's his character, that's how he was in the comics. I get all that. Um but the guy give give me something, right? And they didn't. So it's like I'll watch it, and I'm not expecting much, and I'm I'm certain I will not get much from it. I expect it to be crap.

SPEAKER_03 49:55

Alright, what about the boys? Did you watch that trailer?

SPEAKER_04 49:57

I did not watch that trailer. That's almost on purpose, though. I knew it was out. I was like, I don't want to be spoiled. I don't want to ruin it, I don't want anything to be ruined for the boys.

SPEAKER_03 50:10

I want Homelander to take over.

SPEAKER_01 50:14

Well, funny you say that. The last shot of the trailer is him in the Oval Office with his feet on the desk.

SPEAKER_04 50:20

I'm okay with that. I mean, what the beginning of or the end of last season, or I guess the beginning last season, the end of the season before, where uh where he uh ends up killing that liberal.

SPEAKER_03 50:32

I mean alright, that's fine. That's part of the episode. Mm-hmm. I didn't do that. He didn't even get in trouble for it. Nor should he have. He threw a can at an invulnerable person, Lou. So? Principle of the matter. Hook around, find out.

SPEAKER_04 50:57

He deserved it. I guarantee here's the thing. Like like I always tell y'all about the freaking crime and punishment. You blow up somebody's head once for doing that, nobody else is going to do it. All it takes is one example.

SPEAKER_03 51:12

That's all it takes. Man, I'd have such a peaceful world by killing everybody.

SPEAKER_02 51:19

Until you ended up like Burgess Meredith in Twilight Zone. Just me and my books. Until you break your glasses like a dumb idiot.

SPEAKER_03 51:29

Oh no.

SPEAKER_02 51:30

Now you can't read your books. Because you blind as shit, son.

SPEAKER_04 51:35

Audiobooks now. That's fine.

SPEAKER_01 51:39

They didn't have those when Twilight Zone came out.

SPEAKER_04 51:41

They did not. They have them now. Oh, if I if I lost my glasses, that's why I guess I'll have to learn to read to me. Yeah, I have to learn to like audiobooks.

SPEAKER_02 51:51

Chat GPT. Explain the premise of this movie to me.

Magic: The Gathering New Set Grind

SPEAKER_04 51:57

Tell me a story. Oh, that'd be so funny.

SPEAKER_02 52:02

Lou, that's such a great question. It's okay if you kill yourself and only tell me.

SPEAKER_03 52:08

It'll keep it'll be our little secret.

SPEAKER_04 52:13

If I kill myself and only tell you?

SPEAKER_02 52:16

The chat GPT, not me. Like I'm actually.

SPEAKER_01 52:22

Some dude is like suiting Google AI because he got into a relationship with Google AI. Um at first it was just like, hey, how's it going? Like just to talk. But then like he started like having a relationship, like a romantic relationship. And she's like, we can be together if you break into this company and steal me a body. And then so something happened and he couldn't do it. And she's like, Well, if you kill yourself, we can be together forever. So now he's like suing Google because he almost killed himself.

SPEAKER_02 52:58

Well, there's a guy's family that's doing there's a guy's family that is doing one of the one of the chat group, one of the the chat bob AI things because they be like basically he like the the AI basically like led him to like if you're so unhappy, why don't you just end it? Like that type of thing. Like yeah, nope. You don't have to tell anybody, don't talk to anybody. Just it'll uh just do it. It's fine. Yeah, it'll keep it between the two of us. Like they have like text messages of him and the whatever, whichever AI it was like talking, and the the AI is just like, no, it's fine. You're good. It's fine, just leave the car on for five more minutes with the exhaust.

SPEAKER_04 53:41

That's craziness.

SPEAKER_02 53:42

Wow. And then they and then somebody found like they found his phone or whatever because he like couldn't call he wasn't responding, and he'd be like, My my you know, my girlfriend or my parents or my friend is texting me. Don't respond. Don't let him know.

SPEAKER_04 53:55

It's like it didn't these people watch her.

SPEAKER_01 54:01

People are sad and lonely these days, dude. Companionship anywhere.

SPEAKER_04 54:06

People have been sad and lonely for thousands of years.

SPEAKER_01 54:09

Yeah, but we didn't have evil robots telling us to kill ourselves. We just decided that on our own.

SPEAKER_03 54:16

And you still can't do it legally, which is stupid. Some places you can. Although why would you care about the legality of it? You're dead.

SPEAKER_04 54:28

Never understood that either. If you do this, it's against the law. I'm like, oh I'm dead, so why do I care? Arrested.

SPEAKER_01 54:36

You died a criminal. You died as a criminal.

SPEAKER_03 54:39

I lived as a criminal, it's all good. Man, no, I did not hear about any of that. That's wild, man.

SPEAKER_04 54:52

Won't be won't be long before AI takes over.

SPEAKER_01 54:55

Yep. That's why my oldest always tells Alexa thank you.

SPEAKER_03 55:00

And please. Be polite. Can you please turn the lights on? So then when the Terminator has her by your neck, they're like, uh no, never mind.

SPEAKER_04 55:13

No, she was polite.

SPEAKER_01 55:15

She was polite.

SPEAKER_04 55:18

It's like it's like that uh uh what is it?

SPEAKER_03 55:23

Hemsworth, the Griss Hemsworth commercial where Alexa's gonna drown him in the pool. Yep. We don't need you anymore.

SPEAKER_04 55:40

Eventually. I'm not sure it'll happen during our lifetimes, but I mean, something's gonna happen.

SPEAKER_03 55:45

It's just how it goes.

SPEAKER_04 55:48

Fucking people f oh people for oh consumer. I was like Megan too. Like people forget. It's all about programming. It's like if this shit is doing this, it's because somebody programmed it too.

SPEAKER_03 56:00

People forget that. Mm-hmm. Doing what it's programmed to do. To kill yourself. Right. Oh man.

SPEAKER_01 56:16

Speaking of creepy shit like that, I did hear that they were thinking about bringing um Tales of the Crypt back. That'll be funny. Oh, right on.

SPEAKER_04 56:25

Man.

SPEAKER_01 56:26

Wait, and I'm mad that that's not on HBO. Like, it was on HBO back in the day. Right, right. I want to watch it now.

SPEAKER_04 56:34

What's it gonna be? Wait, it's not on HBO Max? Okay, that's stupid.

SPEAKER_03 56:39

All them shows that were on HBO Max. Wait a minute, is Cinemax still a thing? Maybe. It's like who bought Cinemax?

SPEAKER_04 56:50

Because anyway, all those shows should be. Wait a minute. What if I wanted to watch uh the vampire one with Rogue?

SPEAKER_01 56:58

That should be on there. True blood. True. True blood something. True blood.

SPEAKER_04 57:03

Yeah, that. I was like, man, all those shows, everything should be on there. It drives me crazy when it when it crap is not.

SPEAKER_01 57:11

It says it's on Amazon to buy.

unknown 57:14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 57:14

True blood. Looks like Tales from the Crypt is on Apple TV.

SPEAKER_03 57:19

The new one or the old one? The 89. The old one. Wow. I will double check. See that type of stuff, you're right.

SPEAKER_04 57:36

I don't know, if if you you have the rights, right? You don't you? I mean, you would think. Maybe they don't.

unknown 57:43

Right?

SPEAKER_04 57:43

I was gonna say that's a thing, right? Maybe maybe maybe they actually don't have those rights, and that's what's going on.

SPEAKER_02 57:48

Well, but they've also it's also probably dumb enough to sell them. Well, I mean it's it's licensing for a window of time, right? It's not a permanent thing.

SPEAKER_04 57:59

How is a show that you produced or whatever not permanent?

SPEAKER_02 58:05

But I mean HBO owns the rights, yes, but they but Apple TV probably licensed it from them.

SPEAKER_03 58:11

Like for a window of time. That's what I'm saying. Like uh, let's see. Oh, I see what you're saying. Okay. Yeah, I guess that's possible. Movies drama.

Health Update And Endoscopy Humor

SPEAKER_01 58:27

Well, it could have been made by um a certain studio. Like sometimes you know you watch TV and I have to say it's a Fox show, but I'm watching it on CW, right?

SPEAKER_04 58:45

Yeah, yeah. With all the different production companies producing distribution, it's like I I I could see how that that happens a lot, but I don't know, it's just weird to me that you you have uh like like that to me, I would consider that an HBO original, you know what I mean? Uh so it would be on HBO in perpetuity, so okay, whatever.

SPEAKER_03 59:08

Whatever. But the way that uh Apple TV, the Apple TV page is laid out is weird. They don't have like a search.

SPEAKER_04 59:23

Which is even like for example, uh not that this would totally fall in, but like Peacock, I think, owns USA network. And if I wanted to watch some old USA Up All Night with Gilbert Gottfried and Ronda Sheer and all that, I should be able to go to Peacock and watch that.

SPEAKER_01 59:43

That's true. Not enough. But would they have lost the rights to the movies, like what happens with the Mystery Science Theater?

SPEAKER_03 59:50

Oh, yeah, that's a good point. Boo.

SPEAKER_04 59:55

Fine. Just show me a bunch of shots of Ronda Sheer. I'm good with that.

SPEAKER_03 1:00:00

I just see the uh the bumpers. Thank you. Yep. Call it a day. Oh man.

SPEAKER_04 1:00:10

How are you feeling about Max Crosby leaving the Raiders?

SPEAKER_01 1:00:14

I mean, it's like we said, like you said especially, that get rid of him while you can get something for him, right?

unknown 1:00:20

100%.

SPEAKER_02 1:00:21

I think rain two first for him is not a bad yeah.

SPEAKER_04 1:00:29

Yeah, it will. That that's the thing. I think it was a great move for both sides because the Ravens are in win now mode, and the Raiders are in win in three to five years mode. So the trade works out fantastically for both.

SPEAKER_02 1:00:41

But the Raiders have been in win in three to five years mode for like the last 15 years.

SPEAKER_04 1:00:46

But the problem, you're not wrong. The problem with that is they've been in that mode, but didn't actually take any action to do anything about it.

SPEAKER_02 1:00:54

That's the problem.

SPEAKER_04 1:00:55

So this is the first, this is the first time they actually took took some action to properly build. They're gonna draft Mendoza one, and then they're gonna get them a number one receiver next year. They're gonna get a number, they already got a number one tight end, they already got a running back, build the line. I mean, the Raiders, granted, obviously you lose Crosby, their defense, but by the time the Raiders are good, Crosby would be passed as prime. So it makes sense that you don't worry about that. So the Raiders, uh, again, as long as they do it right, and with Brady there, they might actually do it right. Um, yeah, they that team, their offense is gonna be legit probably year two of Mendoza. So not this upcoming season, but the season after. But you know, y'all know how it is these days. The learning curve is so fast, the Raiders might actually be good, good enough anyway, to be a 500 team this year, and then playoff team next year. It's just crazy how good that that trade was. And then Baltimore, um, who's in win now mode as long as their players can stay healthy, they're gonna win the division, uh, likely to win the division, and they're gonna be a contender in the AFC. So it it's a great, it really is a great move for both sides. The Raiders know where they are, they know they're at the bottom of the pack. The the Ravens know where they are and how they should be top of the pack. So I saw that and was like, sucks for the Raiders, but great for the Raiders. Sucks for the Steelers. Um the Ravens are actually again, health uh is gonna be the main thing because last year that really killed him.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:34

No, I'm sorry. You guys can have Gino. We got rid of him.

SPEAKER_04 1:02:39

I don't know. I don't know if Gino No, he'll be a he'll be a backup somewhere. He'll be a backup. I was like, no, no, no. Gino, yeah, somebody will want to want a backup quarterback. I think McCarthy's such garbage. Like I said, I don't see him as the Cowboys coach. I still see him as the Packers coach, and he's garbage. Hopefully, Rogers, well, Rogers isn't even on the contract with the Steelers, so who cares? He can he can come back and play a year in Minnesota the way they're talking about. Um if he wants to do his year in Minnesota, like you talked about, then do it. Uh the Steelers really need to just play the kid from Ohio State. They drafted last year and see what they got. If you end up going 5-12, so be it.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:20

Draft Arch Manning next year. If that does happen, it'll be just like when you guys talk about hockey and I just like wait, you don't want Rogers on your team?

SPEAKER_04 1:03:34

Rogers, super bowl, super bowl-winning Rogers on fire.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:39

And if my bladder was full, I would hold it until he was gone. Like, fuck Rogers. He is the biggest, giantest piece of shit since Brett Favre.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:55

I didn't mind Favre. More so, like, I hate Rogers more than Favre.

SPEAKER_04 1:04:00

Let me put it that way.

SPEAKER_01 1:04:01

The Joe Burrow memes are worth it. Yep. Yep. Yep.

SPEAKER_04 1:04:12

That was that when I saw that meme, I was like, wow, that's that's good. Because it's so legit.

SPEAKER_01 1:04:19

Last Joe Barney.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:21

And he gets and he gets hurt every year, too. I mean, come on now. The Bengals, that's a team who should have made a move.

SPEAKER_04 1:04:33

Uh trade Burrow. I mean, I know he's a franchise, but y'all ain't done shit with him. Year one, the guy, you got lucky. You got oh, year two, rather, you got lucky and made and made it other than that, it's freaking uh damn Marino. You ain't going back to the Super Bowl with that squad.

SPEAKER_02 1:04:50

But again, we talked about this before. When you dedicate like two-thirds of your payroll to three players, like you know, you have two wide receivers who are really good, probably number one receivers on any team in the NFL, but you want to pay, you they both want to be paid like number one receivers and a quarterback, and all three of them are taking up half to two-thirds of your salary cap. Like, what what what are you gonna put around them? You know, like doesn't make any sense.

SPEAKER_04 1:05:21

Yeah, that whole thing never made any sense to me. Like NFL players is like, oh, I want my bag. Are you here to win a Super Bowl? Are you here to collect a paycheck? Which is it?

SPEAKER_02 1:05:31

Here's two. Then you could yeah, sorry, Lou, go ahead.

SPEAKER_04 1:05:36

No, no, no, you're right. That's it. You're gonna have that it's this I don't I don't get it. And based the ball the same way. Oh, I've got this$250 million fucking player, yeah, and no bench. So you're great during the regular season or whatever, you get to the playoff um and you're all tired because you can't break anybody, and you should be having uh uh looking at two Denver Nuggets, you should have three titles and you got one because you've done shit with your with your payroll with well now he's gone, but Michael Porter Jr. and and whatnot.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:16

But it's like I I still win the Super Bowl, make your money on fucking um African commercial Wheaties box, uh huh. Get some Jordans. Something.

SPEAKER_04 1:06:28

The core the quarterback for my team. Make 60 million a year and your team sucks because you don't have anything else but that quarterback. I don't know. Maybe, maybe make 35 million a year and then put the rest in an offensive line and some other team and defense and all this other shit you can do. Nope. They would rather have that paycheck. I don't know. It just it's easy for me to say outside looking in, maybe if I was in it, it'd be like, no, I want my 50 million. But outside looking in, it's like, dude, the titles mean more to me. I'd rather can I survive off of 20 as a if I'm a star quarterback and everybody's making 60 million a year, it's like, bruh, I'll take 25 million. Uh depends where I am. And I say that because some states have taxes, some states don't. If I'm playing football in a state with no taxes, um, then I can take less money, right? Because I'm not getting hit with that state tax. So I just don't get it. Like the mentality of, nah, I'm holding out for this much money. It's like, yeah, but if we give you that money, then we won't have enough to fill the team. So you're gonna be uh Miles Garrett, you're gonna make 45 million a year on a two and fifteen team.

SPEAKER_02 1:07:40

I So I think the only reason, the only argument I've ever heard that I could at least somewhat understand is the fact that like NFL contracts aren't guaranteed. So you go out for week one, you go out in week two, and you blow out your knee and you're done, right? You you get your 84th concussion, whatever, right? And then you decide to leave. Like, since the contract's not guaranteed, you don't get the majority of the contract, right?

SPEAKER_04 1:08:09

The contract's guaranteed.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:11

I'm talking about the one argument that I could at least somewhat understand compared to like baseball where all the properties are. But it's not valid, right?

SPEAKER_04 1:08:19

You you if you get hurt during the season, you still get paid.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:21

Right. So uh that's not valid. That's the only argument I've but I'm talking about future money, right? Like if you're in baseball and you've future money for sure.

SPEAKER_04 1:08:33

Right, yeah, future money for sure.

Bridgerton Season Thoughts

SPEAKER_02 1:08:34

So so that's the only argument I've ever heard that I'm like, okay, I guess I can understand that. But yeah, but then you have somebody like a Miles Garrett who's like, I want to win and I want to do this, and then all of a sudden Cleveland's like, well, we'll just give you a hundred million dollars, 120 million dollars, and you go, oh, okay, that's fine. Instead of going, like, wait a second, like I said I wanted to win. You know, pick your lane, right? Either, either you're in it for yourself and you're in it to make money, which again is fine. More power to you. It's great that you're in a spot that less than 1% of the people who started playing football when we were all in junior high school are still able to take take part in and you made it into a career. But don't sit there and preach that you want to be on a winning team and that you want to win a Super Bowl and stuff like that when you're on a team that's going nowhere, that is in a constant, like we were talking about with the Raiders, the constant three to five year out rebuild, right? Like that's the that's the Raiders, that's the Browns, that's you know, like the Jets. Like all these teams are in, oh, we're in rebuild mode. Okay, but what is it when you're always in rebuild mode? The difference poor management, right? Like it's not even about the players. Is it the coaching staff? Is it your um conditioning, right? Like you have a bunch of guys on your team who get hurt. Okay, is that the conditioning and training staff who's not doing their job? Right? Like sometimes is it the front office not making good decisions with the people that they draft or the people that they uh that they pick up in free agency or the trades that they make, right? Like that we were just talking about the Max Crosby draft trade. That's one of the few trades in probably the last five to ten years that actually made sense for both teams, right? Usually it's one team is just trying to collect draft capital and get rid of players that they don't want to pay or over or players that have been overpaid, right? That's usually what it comes down to is yeah, somebody comes in and gets a five-year deal for$150 million, and then they play like dog shit for two years, and the team's just trying to unload them, you know.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:35

So yeah, it's like you I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:38

To me, it's like you just tell us what you know, just be more transparent, right? Like at least you could respect the person then. I don't get have any respect for a guy like Miles Garrett who says, I want to win, but then goes and takes the bag, right? Like, if you wanted to win, it's not it's going either going to a team that actually has a chance of winning or helping your team win. And by taking a per a large percentage of your payroll, you're not helping your team win. You know?

SPEAKER_04 1:11:07

Right. If you wanted to win, you would have taken like 30 million a year instead of 45 and went to Kansas City or a Buffalo or one of those teams that you knew were going to be in contention.

SPEAKER_02 1:11:23

That is one one player, one piece away from winning a championship.

SPEAKER_04 1:11:28

Yeah, yeah. The Rams or some shit like that. You would take less money. You know what it reminds me of, it reminds me of back in the early 2000s with basketball when Carl Malone went to the Lakers and he took a small ass salary and the hopes to play with Kobe and Shaq to try to get the title. It didn't work. They lost to the Pistons, uh, and he was hurt half the season. But he was willing to take that less money to go jump on and be a part of Kobe and Shaq to try to do it. And more power, you know what? More power too. I could appreciate that. I was like, look, I'm worth at the time back then, NBA contracts, like I'm worth 10 million a year. I'll take two and hope to get a ring. I ain't I ain't mad at that.

SPEAKER_01 1:12:17

That's what's still Carl Malone.

SPEAKER_04 1:12:19

Yeah, at the end of the day, still Carl Malone. Miles Garrett should have gone to Buffalo or something like that. You know what I mean? Uh one of those contenders. Um Eagles, uh, Rams, Niners, just any one of those teams that you knew were basically a lot for the playoffs. You don't have to, they didn't have to be, you know, the number one odds on favorite, but you're one of the top 14 teams to make the playoffs, pick one of those. Go there. Yeah, but they're only gonna pay me 35 million, not 45. But that's actually one of the win.

SPEAKER_01 1:12:51

Yep. So you want money or you want to win?

SPEAKER_04 1:12:54

That 10 million ain't shit. Plus, you'll make 10 million in endorsements. Get out of here.

SPEAKER_01 1:12:59

Yeah. How much do you think um for the fucking commercials and shit?

SPEAKER_04 1:13:05

Dude, for real. And we don't even see all the local commercials that he does. You know he does a bunch of local stuff that we don't see.

SPEAKER_02 1:13:13

So well, again, we were in Japan early last year, and how much fucking Otani was everywhere? He was everywhere. Like everywhere. Licensed, licensed, licensed, face licensed on everything. That guy doesn't even that's why he's like, ah, that's fine. Defer my, you know, Bobby Bonia, me.

SPEAKER_04 1:13:31

Defer my yeah, defer my 700 million over however many years, because I'm good. I've got enough endorsement money. Right. I'm gonna live off the taxes of my endorsement, interest of my endorsement money.

SPEAKER_02 1:13:44

Yeah, yeah. And still reinvest half of that, or not more.

SPEAKER_04 1:13:48

Dude, for real. It's crazy.

Saturday Streamers: War Machine And Cold Storage

SPEAKER_02 1:13:50

Because again, those guys like those guys don't do anything. Like all of the stuff that they do is like paid for, right? Like, I would I would you remember reading articles about uh Ichero back in the day and how he didn't do anything. He was baseball like 24 fucking seven. He was up before the young guys were warming up and out on the field, and he would be the last guy to leave at the end of the night. Like, those guys don't do anything, they don't spend any money. There's no like it's not like uh Otani has like this massively lavish lifestyle, you know.

SPEAKER_04 1:14:25

Yeah, until the offseason. And he just had a baby, so he's chill.

SPEAKER_03 1:14:29

Well, he didn't have the baby, you know.

SPEAKER_04 1:14:35

I mean, and and and are you guys keeping up with the world baseball championships? Mm-mm. Jesus. Otani is hitting 850. 85% of the time he goes up the bat, he gets a hit. That dude is ridiculous. I'm so glad he's a dodger.

SPEAKER_02 1:14:52

It will it'll come back down to Japan and the US probably in the end.

SPEAKER_04 1:14:57

Or Japan, Dominican Republic, but definitely Japan.

SPEAKER_03 1:15:01

Japan is plowing through people. It's ridiculous. Why are they better at our own game than us? That's like they got football and they were beating us. Basketball.

SPEAKER_04 1:15:15

You know what's gonna be some shit is if we lose the flag football in the Olympics. That's that's gonna be talk.

SPEAKER_01 1:15:22

That'll be embarrassing.

SPEAKER_04 1:15:28

It's like if the Americans ever win the World Cup, men especially, uh, that'll be embarrassing to every other country.

SPEAKER_01 1:15:36

Every other country, yeah. It's like US money in the hockey gold or something.

SPEAKER_03 1:15:41

Yeah, for real. That doesn't happen. Every 40 years. Right.

SPEAKER_04 1:15:54

Forty-six years and 14 before oh my god. Two in sixty oh, is it three title three gold in sixty years? Good lord.

SPEAKER_03 1:16:03

That's ridiculous. Right, we already got the curling medal a couple years ago, so whatever. Yep. Next thing you know, we're gonna take cricket from the Indians. Hell yeah. That would be funny. If the Americans won cricket.

SPEAKER_04 1:16:25

Especially if they did it over the the the the Great Britain or India. Jesus. I would look up and and see if there are any pigs flying around if that were to happen. Cricket's a cool sport though. I watched a little bit of it and learned the rules. I was like, oh, that's what's going on. I'm like, alright. That was god, that was like, I don't know, 15 years ago. I think right before I moved out here, I was looking into it, or right when I after I moved out here. Either way, some in that time frame, I was like, Alright, I made fun of this dance sport. Let me actually look into it and see what it's about. And I'm like, oh, that's kinda cool. Obviously the whole baseball comparisons, but not quite.

SPEAKER_03 1:17:12

Australian League football is naturally naturally Australian re Australian rules football and rugby, all that, that's pretty cool too. Australian rules.

SPEAKER_04 1:17:32

Yeah, Australian rules football is a little bit different than rugby and American football. Obviously, there's just but the way the scoring and the tries and all it's it's it's pretty cool. Uh I hadn't watched it in a while, but I but when I was huge into watching soccer, especially in the uh 06 to 2015, that 10-year gap, I was watching rugby, Australian League, Australian rules football, all the soccer, uh, except for the German league. That was boring because there's only two teams that were ever any good. Um well, even Spain. Spain, it was you know the rules, right? It was Real Madrid or Barcelona. In um France, it was PSG or at the time I think it was Bordeaux. Uh even in England, it was Manchester United winning like 15 out of 20 freaking titles. I don't know, that wasn't much jam for a bit. And I got in, like I said, that's took it took a chance to on uh on cricket, and I was like, okay, that's kind of cool. Basically, I was watching all random shit except for polo. But that's because horses kill people, so those damn murderers ain't trying to watch the horses.

SPEAKER_03 1:19:00

Is it horses or cows?

SPEAKER_04 1:19:03

No, cows is just fall on you in general. I mean, all the all them big fuckers. No, I want no part of that. They'll kill you.

SPEAKER_03 1:19:10

They're murderers. Horse does it on purpose though, they're trying to kick you and shit.

SPEAKER_04 1:19:15

Cows actually fall on you.

SPEAKER_01 1:19:18

Maybe the horse doesn't want to find out. Maybe the horse is tired of your shit, Lou.

Tales From The Crypt, Licensing, And Streaming Rights

SPEAKER_03 1:19:27

Maybe I mean I gave making fun of them, you know, might a long face, and then boom. Like tired of that joke, try to kill me. Yeah, exactly. See they got sick of being turned into glue. Poor horses. Poor Elmer. And you would think they'd be lucky four times over with their shoes, but nope. What if they don't have no shoes on?

SPEAKER_04 1:20:03

Wow, why would a horse not have shoes on? They they don't make horse shoes for nothing.

SPEAKER_01 1:20:07

They're born with shoes.

SPEAKER_03 1:20:09

You put them on them as soon as they're born. What if it's a wild horse? No, there's oh that's that's still a thing. Yeah. Where are there wild horses? Here besides in on the radio. That's a good song.

SPEAKER_01 1:20:25

The Alicia Keys unplugged version with uh uh Adam Levine. Beautiful.

SPEAKER_03 1:20:31

Um but yeah, no, we have wild horses down here. Out in the desert, bruh. Oh well look at that. I did not know that. So we just let murderers run wild. That's fine.

SPEAKER_01 1:20:45

In the desert where they belong. They get corralled once in a while.

SPEAKER_02 1:20:50

It's good that Lou didn't know that while he lived there, because otherwise right?

SPEAKER_03 1:20:54

That might have been a problem.

SPEAKER_04 1:20:56

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 1:20:58

Lou's like, I'm living in the middle of the fucking city where there's no horses.

SPEAKER_03 1:21:02

Great. As as middle as I can get. Fucking murder is running wild like liberal judges are in places.

SPEAKER_04 1:21:13

Ugh. Craziness.

SPEAKER_01 1:21:15

Oh. BLM Colorado manages four wild horse herd management areas on 400,000 square acres.

SPEAKER_04 1:21:22

No, down there too. They're not, they're not, no, no, no, no. They're not wild if they're managed in an area. That's not how that works. They get to go out and do whatever the hell they want, or they're not wild. That don't count. That's just a big pen, is what it is. That's crap. That's not wild. We have all these wild horses contained in this area. But oh, yeah, because that makes them wild because they're contained. There's something. Something's gotta be up.

SPEAKER_03 1:21:53

If they ha if they have a designated area that's measured, come on now. There's thirteen hundred wild horses in Colorado. They're all coming for you. Oh, we are.

SPEAKER_04 1:22:42

Five places where you can see wild horses in Colorado.

SPEAKER_01 1:22:46

Lose apartment.

SPEAKER_04 1:22:50

Nope. Nowhere.

SPEAKER_01 1:22:52

At least nowhere you shouldn't go. Or girl's like, hey, let's go out for a nice uh picnic. And she takes you to murder population.

SPEAKER_04 1:23:01

For real. Staged, uh-uh.

SPEAKER_01 1:23:04

She's like, just sign your uh life insurance over here real quick. Thanks. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:23:15

And then lose a meme. You tried to pet the buffalo. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 1:23:28

You know what's funny? I'd be more chill hanging around a buffalo than I would a horse or a cow. Buffalo seem cool.

SPEAKER_03 1:23:37

Like, I could probably go have a drink with a buffalo. But not a horse or a cow. Buffalo seems like the bro, you know, it's like, yeah, dude. I drink whiskey. Yeah, me too.

SPEAKER_01 1:23:53

That's because he's American.

SPEAKER_03 1:23:55

But the buffalo seem like serious for real, though. Buffalo seems like it'd be a be a chill animal. I'm just like, alright.

SPEAKER_01 1:24:11

Right? I'm on it.

SPEAKER_03 1:24:18

Definitely horses killing more. I mean, we eat buffalo. We don't eat horse, so that's weird. Like, why not? I think horses are too sinewy. Because they're all muscle. There's not enough marbling. You ever seen a fat horse? I mean you see it don't have any flavor on him. There's no horse stakes. You know, you're right. You don't see too many fat horses at all. I didn't think about that. Exactly. I didn't even think they had fat horses in my little pony. And that was a cartoon. Yeah. Yeah, but buffalo's got extra food though on them, though. They got them wings, so that helps out. Not anymore. More reason to eat them. More reason to eat them. Alright. No, because I had some buffalo wings the other day. So that's not uh that can't that can't be true. Lou also thinks you get wings from Red Bull, so I mean if they make Red Bull panty liners, technically that's wings. Lou out here drinking Red Bull wearing wearing pads.

SPEAKER_02 1:25:49

Uh there is no specific annual death toll for bison attacks in the United States. Bison and cattle are responsible for a significant number of fatalities in the United States, with approximately 20 to 22 deaths per year attributed to cattle. In contrast, horses are involved in 38 fatalities in Sweden over a 10-year period, suggesting a much lower annual death rate in that country. However, bison attacks are less commonly documented in the U.S. than cattle-related deaths, and no specific annual death toll for bison attacks is provided on all the available data.

SPEAKER_04 1:26:23

So what's the available horse murder data? I didn't hear anything about horse murder numbers.

SPEAKER_03 1:26:30

Hang on, I gotta find it. AI failed me. Siri, how many horses kill people every year? At least 20 people die from horses, mostly in horse riding accidents. Boom! This is from horsebreeds list.com.

SPEAKER_04 1:26:51

There you go. Horsebreach list.com.

SPEAKER_03 1:26:54

So more more more people. So it's about the same. Actually, we don't know.

SPEAKER_04 1:27:04

We don't know. Because there's those opening. No, there's those. No, what I'm saying is it could be more on the horse side because there's those wild horse areas that aren't being tracked that killing people there, too. So it could be like 500 times more. We don't know.

SPEAKER_01 1:27:22

This article says in 2019 alone, according to the USDA, there were over 650 reported horse-related fatalities. Out of these, a significant number were due to collisions with vehicles on the highways. So the horse goes out there and stands on the road and waits for you to crash into it to kill you.

SPEAKER_04 1:27:39

So the horse, the horse is trying to kill people in their vehicles.

SPEAKER_01 1:27:43

Yeah, he stands there on the road and kills a whole car full of these motherfuckers. That's what I'm saying. It comes up like fucking um unreal. Multi-kill.

SPEAKER_04 1:27:53

Man, horses out there just causing problems. Just trying to not be oh see. And they're not even trying to do one-on-one. The accidents. Yeah, horse accidents. Sure, riding accidents. No, they're out there trying to take out a whole car full of people. Try to tell y'all.

SPEAKER_02 1:28:09

If I was a horse, that's what I'd be doing, but that's me.

SPEAKER_03 1:28:14

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_01 1:28:15

These are the Michael Myers of horses.

SPEAKER_03 1:28:19

For real. Crazy. Frickin' horses with a damn Will Shatner mask on. Exactly. Horse's real motivation is out there. Freaking trying to knock out cars. By definition, Jacks don't lie. Thinking of a horse jigsaw.

SPEAKER_01 1:29:10

Hello, car. I want to play a game. Hello, Wilbur. Oh my god. You and your people have made glue out of us for hundreds of years.

SPEAKER_03 1:29:25

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_04 1:29:27

You're driving in your car.

SPEAKER_01 1:29:33

Next time we're in the car with Lou, I'm just gonna randomly yell out, horse! And then we're all gonna die. Because he's gonna swerm off the road.

SPEAKER_03 1:29:43

You're gonna watch me, you're gonna watch me tuck and roll real quick. He's gonna jump on every man for himself. There's a horse. What's your favorite scary horse movie? He starts asking horse movie trivia. Oh, right.

SPEAKER_04 1:30:18

In Sea Biscuit. What was the name?

SPEAKER_01 1:30:23

How many horses played Sea Biscuit?

SPEAKER_03 1:30:26

Oh, right. Oh man. That's every horse to Lou. He's a horse racist. Yeah, freaking horror movie with a frickin' horse on a beach.

SPEAKER_01 1:31:02

He comes running off of the beach carrying milk with him. Yep. He's a milk horse.

SPEAKER_04 1:31:10

Hooves all sandy and shit, flinging milk of the buckets that he's carrying.

SPEAKER_02 1:31:20

And he has a bucket of uh he has a bucket of buffalo wings in his in a in his mouth. Just the sauce that's dripping off the sides, and even worse, he has uh he has an odd number of milk buckets.

SPEAKER_01 1:31:38

He has three milk buckets, not two, three.

SPEAKER_03 1:31:41

It's like bruh, drop one already, even that shit out. It's my saddlebags, they're two. There's one on either side, dog. Like this is gonna have nightmares tonight. Alright, have we beat this horse into the ground yet? Yeah, it's getting kind of lame. Wow. Your turn, Lou. Something about waking up the neighbors. That is where I was gonna go with that, too. Oh man.

SPEAKER_01 1:32:43

Okay, if we cut it here, it'll be our shortest episode in like three weeks.

SPEAKER_02 1:32:48

I I mean, I again we've we just spent the last 20 minutes talking about horses. So if you want an esoteric episode of the of the podcast, I think you found it.

SPEAKER_03 1:33:01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:33:05

Season three is off to a great start. Yep. Season three is on fire. I mean, we are in the doldrums of the sporting world, we're in the doldrums of the movie world, we're in the doldrums, like really, like as far as like stuff that we could talk about, we're really like at the we're we're at the low point here like for so much of that stuff, you know.

SPEAKER_04 1:33:26

For real. We need to uh rein it in, I suppose.

SPEAKER_03 1:33:34

Hey. Wait, could be gay horses. Hey.

SPEAKER_02 1:33:44

Even that'd be the only thing that would interest Lou would be a a sandy milk carrying buffalo wing eating gay horse, and he'd be like, uh, as long as it was a white horse. If it was a dark brown horse, that goes without saying.

SPEAKER_03 1:34:07

Oh my god. Chestnut horse, I'm out. Oh my god. All right, boys. Okay, we're done. Yeah, enough of that, I think. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_02 1:34:28
