Welcome to the Bonus Episode
Speaker 1Hello, hello patrons, welcome to your bonus episode. Just FYI, it is 10.04 PM. I know we are not on our A game. I'm pouring some water into my Stanley cup right now. We just recorded an episode with our special guest, chris, who that was our second time trying to record. Y'all may remember we had some serious mic problems and actually we don't know how this next one's going to sound anyway. But okay, we talked to him about movies, in particular movie soundtracks, mostly 80s. We did talk a little 90s, but it was a of 80s, yeah, and like kind of kind of like how the movie soundtrack got to be such a big deal in general in general. Yeah, right, um, so now I decided on our bonus episode. We're gonna do something.
Soundtrack Singing Game Begins
Speaker 1katie has no idea what I'm about to say she's looking at me like, oh my god, here's what we're going to do. Okay, I'm going to say a movie soundtrack and then I'm going to give you a few seconds and you have to start singing something from the movie soundtrack.
Speaker 2Okay, so not the song, the soundtrack.
Speaker 1And then I pick a song. Anything from the soundtrack can be eighties or nineties, and I will make sure we'll. And then you can ask me and I'll do the same and we will just go back and forth and we'll make sure we're nice to each other and don't give you like weird shit. Okay, are you ready? So?
Speaker 1beethoven, beethoven too, all the bangers from the dog movies um, I'm making sure I'm not getting a message from my husband. Hold on, because it is 10 o'clock night. Our kids are at dress rehearsal for a show. Who is messaging me? I don't be knowing. We're good. Oh, crystal texted me and said Cooper was amazing. Oh, that was so nice, that is so sweet. Okay, speaking of dress rehearsal, are you ready? I'm ready. I'm going to give you an easy one to start with. Okay, my only caveat is you may not, for this one, sing the song that has the title of what I'm about to say. Okay, okay, footloose, okay, okay.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, we just talked about this.
Speaker 1You have lots of options.
Speaker 2I need a hero. I'm holding out for a hero to the end of the night. Is it line or night Line? No, it's night, it's not. I ask which one it is, and then I say the wrong one here until the end of the line.
Speaker 1Yeah, Like.
Speaker 2The end of the line is like no the last stop.
Speaker 1Now listen, I am the queen of misspoken lyrics, so I'm probably not the right person to ask, but I'm pretty sure on that one it's night night.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1Okay, but I do love that Nice job. Thank you, nice job.
Speaker 2All right, that helped because we had just talked about it with Chris, but still I do I would probably would have sang that anyway. I love that song.
Speaker 1Also also um with misspoken lyrics. You know the song um. Here I go again on my own by White.
Speaker 1Snake. Yeah, no joke. Until about five years ago, I seriously thought the worst. I think I've said this before on here the words of that song where it says like a drifter, I was born to walk alone. Yeah, I swear to God, I thought it said like a twister, I was born to walk alone. And I'm in the car with my husband and I'm singing that shit at the top of my lungs and he turned the volume down and he goes what did you just say? I said like a twister. And he goes no, just no, that's wrong. And I'm like he's like, can you please think about that for a minute? And I'm like a twister. A twister walks aloneister walks alone.
Speaker 2He's like no drifter drifter okay all right, that's a good one, that's a good one. All right, all right, now let's see, I have to do my favorite. Can't hardly wait.
Speaker 1Soundtrack okay, um well, the party don't start till I walk in. No, that's wrong, and I probably won't leave before the thing ends. But in the meantime, the in-between time, I'll go for yours and then you go for mine.
Speaker 2There you go, but what's the name of that song? I don't know that one's.
Speaker 1Oh, my God, I don't know. Also, another song that's on that soundtrack that I love is it's Tricky, it's tricky, it's tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky. I met this little girly. Her hair was kind of curly went to her house to bust her out. I had to leave her early.
Speaker 2God, yes, that is in that one and eve six that I would swallow my pride. I would choke on rhymes, but the lack thereof would leave me empty inside. Swallow my doubt, turn it inside. I'll find nothing but faith in nothing I want to put my tender heart in a blender. Watch it spin around to a beautiful oblivion. Rendezvous, then I'm through with you.
Speaker 1Man good shit right there so good.
Speaker 2And all the Barry Manilow they play in them. Well, they only play one, mandy.
Speaker 1Yeah, there's a Yaz song in there yes, at the end in the train station.
Speaker 2All I needed was the love you gave.
Speaker 1Oh god, I love Yaz. Oh man, we talked about Yaz with Brant, on Upstairs with Eric. That's the album.
Misheard Lyrics Confessions
Speaker 2I'm listening to that. I'm like, oh, that's it so, so good. Alright, that one was good, ready for another one, I'm ready.
Speaker 1Oh, okay, this one's going to be out there, but I think you can do it Clueless.
Speaker 2Well, they sing it at the party. Yeah, go Rolling with the homies I always think of, is it Brittany Murphy? Is that her name?
Speaker 1And she's singing that oh rest in peace, brittany.
Speaker 2But there's so many other good ones in that.
Speaker 1What else? My favorite song on that soundtrack is we're the kids in. America. We're the kids in America. That is a good one. Fake Plastic Trees. I love that song Because they're listening to it in the car. That's right.
Speaker 2That's a good one, I have to say, because I really want to hear you sing what I think you're going to sing Oliver and Company.
Speaker 1Why should I worry? Why should I care? I don't know any more of the words though Me either. That's all I know. That's all I need to know. It's like Hakuna Matata, that's all. That's all you need to know. Why should I worry? Why should I worry?
Speaker 2Why should I? All you need to know. Why should I worry? Why should I worry? Why should I care? I don't. Honestly, I don't know any of the other songs in oliver and company me either. There's a bett midler song, right, there's gotta be, wasn't she in the movie? Yeah, she was the dog, the white dog. I'm sure that she has a song. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1I mean, I'm not sure, obviously, okay, all right, let me think of another one for you. Okay, I'm not going to do a musical, like I was about to say Grease, but nope.
Speaker 2No, no, no, no, it's too easy. That's 70s anyway, it is 78. Oh, yeah, we talked about that, or 77. 77 or 78, he said Okay.

Speaker 2Do you remember the love song, oh my gosh.
Speaker 1No, I don't remember it Now, I forgot it. I don't remember it, the one where that, the love song, where they have their first kiss as soon as you say the name of it. I'll probably know it. Hold on. Now we gotta look it up. People are yelling at us right now.
Speaker 2They're so mad they're singing it shit loudly at their devices glory of love, yes, oh, I am the man who will fight for your honor. That's it.

Clueless and Oliver & Company
Speaker 1Okay, so is your son named Dr Ferris, so the not sure Okay. Right, so he was named before.
Speaker 2I was in his life.
Speaker 1Right.
Speaker 2But supposedly no Okay Now, Brant loves that movie, I know.
Speaker 1And we've watched it a zillion times. I mean I'd be down with that In my son's childhood.
Speaker 2He hated it when he was little, of course, because it's not a common name, so like, if it was on, it would always be like Ferris, ferris, ferris, and he'd be like ah. But now he like totally embraces it loves it, doesn't care, like Ferris, oh, like Ferris Bueller. Every time, which I mean, yeah, well, because you don't hear that name no, I've never heard anyone else, so it is like a Celtic name.
Speaker 2Okay, right, so my husband has Irish roots. Like, we have a daughter named Teagan Erin, which literally means Ireland, ireland, and then someone in London, but whatever, we're just, we're all over, we're international baby, but um, so technically no, I guess he has an older sister on his mom's side, okay, who was nine or ten when he was born, and so they asked her and supposedly that was the name.
Speaker 2She said oh, that's cute and then they were both like yeah, we really like that. And what's crazy is he? He resembles ferris, he's got like the really dark hair and he does, and the brown eyes and he looks a lot like him so it is kind of funny. And ferris bueller on that float had a generation in between aesthetic. He's got that leopard print jacket on and that like white shirt and the jeans.
