109: The Twenty-Five Calibre Plague - The show grows. The issues remain unchanged.

Episode 9 of What Were We Saying? keeps things moving - whether it should or not.

Big Uke returns with another edition of Big Uke’s Bunch O’ Stuff, while the fellas take aim at the world around them in “What’s Dumb This Week.” Edgar’s Fun Facts makes an appearance with knowledge of varying usefulness, and Tubesox checks in with a recap of his latest “How Was the Movie?” assignment - graded on a curve, at best.

They also roll out a brand-new segment sponsor (credibility pending), and, of course, revisit “3 Things That Can Kick Rocks,” where the complaints remain strong and only loosely justified.

New sponsor, same problems.
Keep your expectations low, as always

SPEAKER_03 0:50

Private label. Private frickin' label. Good evening. Good afternoon. Good morning. Or hey, you driving your car listening. That right there is Big Euke.

SPEAKER_04 1:06

This guy over there. That's tube sucks.

SPEAKER_03 1:09

Welcome to what we were saying. Episode nine. Uh coming to you from the fifth floor at Blunderworks Studios in Sunny Downtown. Sunny Downtown. My goodness, and it was sunny today.

SPEAKER_04 1:22

It was. It was sunny, but there was also some other stuff. And we'll get to that. A little sneak hint, my top ten. Big Uke's buncho stuff refers to the current weather in Sunny Downtown.

SPEAKER_03 1:34

Uh let's give a shout out to Harold Winthrop and the Silver Ashery Orchestra who played us in, and they play us out every week. And they are not the nicest gentleman you've ever met, but you know what? They're a hell of a band. Right? There it is. If that's the bar. Speaking of worse. Edgar behind the camera. That guy. Anyways. What a prick. At least he didn't jimmy the lock on the studio this weekend.

SPEAKER_04 2:00

Well, we gave him that key card.

SPEAKER_03 2:01

What an ass. Anyways. What uh what are we saying today, youke?

SPEAKER_04 2:06

Saying stuff. About some stuff.

SPEAKER_03 2:07

About some things.

SPEAKER_04 2:08

We got some movie discussion. Some uh weather discussion. Uh I heard you uh experienced some dumb this week. I don't know if you want to start there.

SPEAKER_03 2:18

Well, let's uh let's recap our week before we get into what's dumb. Had a pretty good weekend. We uh ended up running into each other again on our jerk our journey to friendship. In sunny downtown. We ran into each other in sunny downtown at a uh casino.

SPEAKER_04 2:33

It was uh slots were spinning, dice were rolling.

SPEAKER_03 2:37

Forty dollars was leaving me very quickly.

SPEAKER_04 2:40

Slightly more than $40 was leaving me slightly more quickly.

SPEAKER_03 2:44

It's okay though, because I'm gainfully employed, so I was able to earn that back in 10 short hours of work.

SPEAKER_04 2:50

Yeah, like there's that. But it's funny, it's more more funnier? No, more fun to uh not just lose a bunch of money.

SPEAKER_03 2:58

But to win. I bet a lot of people go to the casino trying to win. I bet the allure is to win.

SPEAKER_04 3:04

I've heard some people doing it, not just for the sites and stuff.

SPEAKER_03 3:07

Go in, drop 40 to 100 to 200 and leave.

SPEAKER_04 3:10

That's seemingly more what my trips turn into. Hmm. Weird. The other people I was with with did uh they did a little better than I did.

SPEAKER_03 3:19

So anyways, I and I I I got to hang out with those people as well for a little bit. That was nice. They were nice. Nice. Food was good. And we didn't even know we were gonna be down there. It was just completely uh just happened to be all meat cute, right? Just swung by and boom. There's you can't screw at the casino at the at the at the lounge.

SPEAKER_04 3:36

So we needed some sustenance. We had had a a good shift. The casino was bumping, slots were rolling.

SPEAKER_03 3:43

I uh dice was spinning. You were working shift as uh running a time clock for a charity uh event.

SPEAKER_04 3:50

Well run.

SPEAKER_03 3:51

That was uh that was that was big of you. That was nice of you to donate your time.

SPEAKER_04 3:56

That's just the type of guy I am. You know, it was a good cause. They raised uh quite a lot of funds.

SPEAKER_03 4:01

Well, that's excellent.

SPEAKER_04 4:02

So I think at the end of the day it worked out uh worked out pretty good for everybody. After uh clocks are easy to run though, it's just buttons.

SPEAKER_03 4:08

Well, that's true, it is just buttons. Good thing it's no levers.

SPEAKER_04 4:12

I struggle with levers.

SPEAKER_03 4:13

After I ran into you and uh you know I parted ways with my $40, I hooked up with one of my uh sons and we headed to a uh to a local tiki bar. Tiki tiki. And that was a really good time that is foggy because of the tiki tiki. Because every you know, tiki bar beverage has about 18 and a half kilograms of rum in it.

SPEAKER_04 4:37

And eighteen and a half kilograms of sugar. Yes, yeah, so the combination deadly combination.

SPEAKER_03 4:43

My plan was to uh when I ran into this gentleman, he said, What are you up to? I said, Oh, I'm just going to meet my kid for uh for a few drinks and then I'll catch an Uber back home to my abode. My abode, the uh Casa del Tube socks, and uh how'd that go?

SPEAKER_04 4:57

What time did you catch that uh Uber?

SPEAKER_03 4:59

I caught that Uber at about 1.30 the very next day.

SPEAKER_04 5:01

Woo! And not 1.30 a.m., folks.

SPEAKER_03 5:04

Because me and the boy uh hit up the tiki bar, and then we went down to another bar, and then we got some karaoke on, and one thing led to another, and then we're getting a swarma at 12:30 or 1 o'clock.

SPEAKER_04 5:15

Did you sing uh brown-eyed girl?

SPEAKER_03 5:16

I didn't sing anything, I just I'm not overly shocked. Well, I I'm not much of a shantous. But so that you know when you're getting a swarma downtown at one in the morning, that you've had a good night. You've you've had a solid night, you've done it successfully. So uh, and for the first time in my life, I crashed up my kids' house, which was neat because I actually got to experience sleeping in my clothes on my kids' couch and waking up going, Wow, I guess they're just in bed, so I guess I'll just start walking to the nearest Denny's and sort my shit out. That is uh that's a check off the list. It was good.

SPEAKER_04 5:52

Bingo card experience for old tube socks.

SPEAKER_03 5:55

But then he did come by that evening for dinner.

SPEAKER_04 5:57

Brought you your shoes back.

SPEAKER_03 5:58

And uh actually he brought me the uh the pint glass that I ended up leaving the bar with. You know what? And I left it at his house, but he brought it to me, so that was nice.

SPEAKER_04 6:06

Everyone loves leaving with a good pint glass, right? So we've all taken a glass. Stop pretending you haven't.

SPEAKER_03 6:11

Anyways, it was a hell of a weekend, really, for old uh old socks here. You know, it took me a couple days to get my levels back up, but uh I'm right as rain now. Feeling as spry as I can.

SPEAKER_04 6:22

And that's a win, really. Right? You know, good weekend, good stories. You checked something off the list.

SPEAKER_03 6:29

Nothing uh nothing dumb about uh nothing dumb about that. About that. Actually kind of funny because the very next night, the Sunday night, where both boys came over to our our pad and we had some pizza and watched a hockey game, then they all went out together, and then my other kid crashed at his house as well that same night because you know the kids can do that. He was like, What's what was the sleeping like? Uh how's this couch? Is it alright? Yeah, it was fine. He's like, okay, I think I'll I'll take my turn on the couch. I'll take my turn there tonight and I'll crash on his couch tonight.

SPEAKER_04 6:59

Yeah, I was lucky enough to have a bed downtown. Didn't have to sleep on a couch, but wouldn't be the first time I've slept multiple nights on a couch.

SPEAKER_03 7:05

I can sleep on a board. Yeah, it could. I don't need much.

SPEAKER_04 7:09

It sucks.

SPEAKER_03 7:10

Give me a napkin and a board, and I'm good.

SPEAKER_04 7:13

Piece of paper towel.

SPEAKER_03 7:14

Right? So it was not dumb.

SPEAKER_04 7:17

That was that does not sound dumb.

SPEAKER_03 7:19

No, it was uh my weekend was not dumb. Your weekend doesn't sound dumb either.

SPEAKER_04 7:22

It was very similar of the whole we'll just go for a couple and then all of a sudden a couple turn into more, and then you run into people and now it's midnight and whew.

SPEAKER_03 7:31

Here you go. Sunday you're trying to get your levels up. Levels got up?

SPEAKER_04 7:34

Well, then you hair the dog at two.

SPEAKER_03 7:36

I never uh I consumed more iced tea in a 90 minute span on Sunday morning than I think I have my entire life up to this point. Just yeah, I believe it. That's I need I needed sugar water. You gotta write yourself. I was IVing myself with some iced tea.

SPEAKER_04 7:55

IV tea. Anyways. It happens to the best of us, really.

SPEAKER_03 8:01

And you're not worse for it and you didn't lose your things. No. So there's that. Lost none of my things, gained a pint glass.

SPEAKER_04 8:05

Gained you actually gained items. Which really, I don't know. If you can't consider that a win, you gotta change your priorities around.

SPEAKER_03 8:13

Absolutely a win.

SPEAKER_04 8:17

Oh, fun. I'm glad you had a good weekend.

SPEAKER_03 8:19

Yeah, I'm glad you did as well.

SPEAKER_04 8:21

Was fun.

SPEAKER_03 8:22

Anything, uh, you got anything dumb this week?

SPEAKER_04 8:25

I actually don't have anything dumb because it was just I'm riding on such a high the weekend that was. That nothing, uh even if something dumb did happen, I uh I pushed it away. You didn't notice. I didn't notice. It was everything was good. I uh You didn't push things away, did you?

SPEAKER_03 8:40

No, well I I two. One was from the weekend, and it took place at the very casino that we were at together. Oh boy. I don't know why so many dumb things happen to me in public washrooms.

SPEAKER_04 8:52

Oh no, again!

SPEAKER_03 8:55

This was in the men's room. And this was just it this was dumb and weird. So I'm at the urinal doing what a fella does at the urinal, and there's free urinals all around. Like there's like, say there's a bank of eight, there's one guy, four urinals, me, everything else, the whole place, the floor is wide open. Uh-oh. I can see this guy in my periphery vision walking behind, walking past, and then he crouches down right behind me to tie his shoe. Oh. He's like eight centimeters behind my heel of my shoe. Of all the like, there was room for him to do this anywhere, but he chose right behind me. Oh, my shoe's untied.

SPEAKER_04 9:37

I'm just kneeling down in a washroom is a choice.

SPEAKER_03 9:39

That's right, so right behind me, so I'm at the urinal and I can see that there's this guy like right behind me. So awkward. Yeah, that's a And I'm like, what the hell's going on? And then I see him get up and ties a shoe, and then he gives me the nod and moves on, and didn't wash his hands and headed back out to the casino. Ooh. So that was dumb.

SPEAKER_04 10:04

I at least uh yeah, no, that was dumb. At least here. That's pretty dumb. At least you wear the right washer.

SPEAKER_03 10:11

And then today, this very day that we're on right now, uh, I uh well this isn't that dumb, but it's certainly kind of dumb. Dumb adjacent. I go into uh a drive-thru in the morning to get a at a coffee establishment, and I go up to pay, standard procedure, and the uh the chick at the window says, Oh, that guy ahead of you uh paid for you. Oh they'll pay it forward. Like, okay, all right. And I look and I see there's no one behind me because it's really early in the morning, plus it's super sketch part of town. And uh, and so she hands me my item, but she also hands me something else, a card. So I grab my thinking and I'm like, oh, what is this? And she said, Oh, that's also from the guy. Oh. I have the item right here. Uh-oh. Oh! I'm gonna come up forward here slow. I got this really nice Jesus loves you card from a drive-thru with some Easter celebration dates and locations for Good Friday and Easter Sunday. Huh. So there we go. So you know, that was now we have to make it awkward. Well, so here's a coffee, and uh praise the Lord. I've never experienced that before in my life.

SPEAKER_04 11:33

Like I've experienced praise the Lord. I've experienced a free coffee. Never once can I say I've experienced them both together in a drive-thru.

SPEAKER_03 11:39

That the guy went, I'm gonna pay for that, guys, and give him this.

SPEAKER_04 11:41

Give him this.

SPEAKER_03 11:42

I mean it's a sturdy card, it's well made. It's got a nice this is not cheap. Right? It's got a nice finish on it. It's got that nice matte finish, so it feels nice in the text relief.

SPEAKER_04 11:50

I mean, this guy, good for him. He's literally doing the Lord's work.

SPEAKER_03 11:54

He is out there doing the Lord's work.

SPEAKER_04 11:56

That is a power move.

SPEAKER_03 11:57

I did not expect that. So I mean, maybe it's not dumb.

SPEAKER_04 12:02

Yeah, but maybe it is. And that's what we're gonna do. It was it was certainly curious. It's certainly curious. That's a what's curious this week for sure. Huh. I can't say I've ever experienced anyone getting anything other than the free item. Than the item that uh any sort of here's uh here's a card or a lawn sign.

SPEAKER_03 12:23

Paint it forward, praise the Lord.

SPEAKER_04 12:25

Hey, all the power to you. I mean There's no harm, no foul. No, no, you got a free coffee out of me.

SPEAKER_03 12:30

He could be doing worse.

SPEAKER_04 12:31

And a fun story.

SPEAKER_03 12:32

He could have handed me some sort of uh It could have said much worse things. It could have it could have told me to kick rocks.

SPEAKER_04 12:38

Then that's that's that's no point all. Could have said hail Satan. That would have been even that would have been bothersome.

SPEAKER_03 12:42

It was like what that would have been bothersome. Getting some weird black magic witchcraft thing going on. But no, it was just Jesus loves you. Well, you know what? Maybe I should uh You should pay it forward and give them that too. No, maybe I should show up.

SPEAKER_04 12:56

Hey, I'm here because I got a coffee.

SPEAKER_03 12:58

Ultimate power move. Just actually show up at that service is like, yeah, here I am.

SPEAKER_04 13:01

Because I almost guarantee that.

SPEAKER_03 13:03

I believe you wanted to speak to me?

SPEAKER_04 13:05

The guy who passed that card is expecting you to not show up.

SPEAKER_03 13:09

Well, you know, they I'm sure that their uh indoctrination rate's gotta be pretty low. Like for every hundred cards they give out, they can't. Maybe someone?

SPEAKER_04 13:20

I can't imagine it's a zero success rate. There's one. It's a hell of a story. Because that is uh I ain't never seen it.

SPEAKER_03 13:28

Anyways.

SPEAKER_04 13:29

I ain't never seen it. Maybe eight, maybe uh maybe Edgar should go.

SPEAKER_03 13:35

Oh my god, we're gonna give this to Edgar, and Edgar's gonna swing by. As a representative. I love that idea.

SPEAKER_04 13:41

Well, maybe not as a representative, because I don't trust him.

SPEAKER_03 13:43

Strick stick a triple WS sticker on their church. Right on the podium there at the front of the lectern, or I don't know what you call that. Altar? No.

SPEAKER_04 13:52

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 13:53

I don't know.

SPEAKER_04 13:54

But that thing where they talk.

SPEAKER_03 13:56

Anyways. So that was my experience.

SPEAKER_04 13:59

Right. I'd never day.

SPEAKER_03 14:01

It's rare that you get to experience something that you've never experienced before in your life.

SPEAKER_04 14:05

And that's two things in a matter of like two days for you.

SPEAKER_03 14:08

I'm really having a having a week. Speaking of having a week, Edgar uh had a week compiling some fun facts.

SPEAKER_04 14:15

My goodness, Edgar. We gotta, I don't know, do we have to impose limits on him or or what here, but this guy went off the off the chains. I think we gotta we got we gotta cap it at three. He's back to three again.

SPEAKER_03 14:25

He's back to three.

SPEAKER_04 14:26

You know, in his defense, he did have a hell of a week last week. He did. Those were uh those were good.

SPEAKER_03 14:33

All right, let's hear uh see let's see what he's cooked up this week. Fun facts for us this week. Let's see what he's got.

SPEAKER_04 14:38

Fun fact, number one bananas are naturally radioactive. They contain potassium, and a tiny fraction of that potassium is the radioactive isotope potassium-40. The amount is completely harmless. Well, that's good to know. For all these years, they're just like, nah, eat some radiation. But it's measurable enough that scientists actually use a joking unit of radiation called the banana equivalent dose to explain very small radiation exposures. Eating one banana exposes you to about 0.1. What the heck is that word? Micro Sieverts? Microsiverts?

SPEAKER_03 15:18

Jesus loves you.

SPEAKER_04 15:19

0.1 micro sieverts of radiation. Far less than what you get from a medical x-ray or even just flying on an airplane.

SPEAKER_03 15:28

You get radiation from flying on an airplane? Well, yeah, because you're closer to the sun. I guess I'm a real stooge. I didn't know that.

SPEAKER_04 15:35

Yeah. There'd be some more radiation. I suppose. You're closer.

SPEAKER_03 15:41

Probably because you're closer to the sun.

SPEAKER_04 15:44

You know what? You might be right. Yeah, I might I might be right. You might be correct there. Alright, what do you got for number two? Fun fact number two does not involve bananas. Well, I haven't read the whole thing, but I was hoping it was all banana-based. Oh, that would have been incredible. Next time, Edgar. The buttons on the sleeves of suit jackets are called surgeons' cuffs. And they exist because doctors historically needed to roll up their sleeves quickly during surgery. According to tailoring lore, surgeons began requesting working buttons on their coat sleeves so they could unbutton the cuff and push the sleeve up without removing the whole jacket. Because that would be too I can't. I'm a surgeon, I can't wear a sleep.

SPEAKER_03 16:19

He doesn't have a kind of time.

SPEAKER_04 16:21

Over time the look became fashionable, and Taylor started adding sleeve buttons to civilian suits as a mark of refinement. Today most suit sleeve buttons are purely decorative and don't actually open, but on higher-end suits they may still be functional, which is why they're sometimes called working surgeon cuffs. I uh the something uh suits that have working surgeon cuffs?

SPEAKER_03 16:40

No, I I bet my kid does, though. That would make sense. Um I really like the phrase uh what was the phrase about lore? According to tailoring lore. Tailoring lore. That's like, I mean, of all the lores, right? Tailoring lore.

SPEAKER_04 16:53

I imagine if that is like a section of a library, it's like what, a book?

SPEAKER_03 16:57

Can I help you find something? I'm looking for a book on uh tailoring lore. Oh, they're all over here in the 800 section in the Dewey Decimal system. Oh, don't even get me started. In the card catalog. Huh. Okay, well that's all right, Edgar. I mean I mean, I feel as though they could have just like It's not useful, but it's kind of interesting. They could have just taken their coats off. Yeah, but you're in a hurry.

SPEAKER_04 17:18

You gotta undo your buttons, you try to just roll up your sleeve, undo your buttons, roll up your sleeve.

SPEAKER_03 17:23

You have just like until you've walked a mile in their shoes. Alright, what else you got?

SPEAKER_04 17:28

Ed. Fun fact number three from uh Mr. Edgar. According to most circus reference materials. Oh. Oh, back to circus things. Well, there's clowns last week. According to most circus reference materials, a trapeze is a short horizontal bar suspended from two ropes high above the circus rings. Performers use the trapeze to swing through the air and perform acrobatic maneuvers. This activity is commonly referred to as trapeze work.

SPEAKER_03 17:55

Yes, that makes sense.

SPEAKER_04 17:56

And it's generally performed by people who are comfortable being high above the ground. That's so terrible. Okay, so next week, just two. Because you had it with the two.

SPEAKER_03 18:09

Gosh, darn it.

SPEAKER_04 18:10

But the best according to most circus references.

SPEAKER_03 18:14

But there are some circus references where they call it something different. They don't call it trapeze work. I wonder what they call that's maybe.

SPEAKER_04 18:21

They just call it like the high swinging bar.

SPEAKER_03 18:23

Maybe they just call it work. Because the trapeze is it's just their job. It's implied.

SPEAKER_04 18:28

Well. I don't think he understands implication unless it's in the criminal sense. Wow. You know what? What a guy. Passing grade. Passing grade? But but just barely.

unknown 18:42

Wow.

SPEAKER_03 18:45

Well, alright.

SPEAKER_04 18:46

Well, now we gotta go to something good because that was something else.

SPEAKER_03 18:49

Okay, well, let's. We're going to your bunch of stuff. We can go to my bunch of stuff. Let me uh read the sponsor for this, which is a returning sponsor from last week. I'll show you how it's done, Edgar. I have not had this process uh done, even though I think you need to. Because my chakra is entirely in line. Uh the crystal chakra charging station.

SPEAKER_04 19:42

Hey, you never know when you need to do that.

SPEAKER_03 19:44

Mine never do, but uh, I'm glad they're on board. Have you ever experienced I don't need to because uh Jesus Jesus loves me.

SPEAKER_04 19:53

That's so incredible.

SPEAKER_03 19:56

That's a great keepsake.

SPEAKER_04 19:58

You'll always have a story attached to that. Oh my goodness. Well, let's get into your bunch of stuff. Bunch of stuff for uh episode nine. The worst parts of this time of year.

SPEAKER_03 20:11

Okay. There uh are some parts that aren't great.

SPEAKER_04 20:14

Well, I'm gonna give you ten. Let's find out. For me personally, I know this one doesn't apply to most people. Well maybe not most people, but some people. The ending of winter activities, such as your snowmobiling, your ice fishing, your snowball fights, let's say. They're just it's it's snow's going away.

SPEAKER_03 20:32

You know what though?

SPEAKER_04 20:33

Starting to rain during the day, that makes icy, you can't ride.

SPEAKER_03 20:36

I uh I welcome the change of seasons. I'm okay with it.

SPEAKER_04 20:40

Okay, see, that's different. I don't mind the change of a season as far as it's the activities you enjoyed. But it's activities. The fact that they just like, nope, you're done now.

SPEAKER_03 20:47

You gotta put the sled away. You it goes from A to B real quick.

SPEAKER_04 20:51

Ah yeah. Now I gotta put it away. I just got it out. Number nine. Everything's brown. Everything's dead, it hasn't bloomed yet, nothing's green, nothing's dead.

SPEAKER_03 21:02

It's just the exposed uh road sand.

SPEAKER_04 21:07

Right, it's just everything's gross. And with number eight here, it ties directly to that is the garbage, the rocks, and the sand sitting underneath what was melted snow, what the snow and has now melted.

SPEAKER_03 21:18

What we need is a fresh coating of snow to clean the place up.

SPEAKER_04 21:20

Right? We just need some snow to cover it up, and we'll be good. And then I can do my winter activities. It all ties back. Number seven, you're seemingly always out of windshield washer fluid.

SPEAKER_03 21:30

I received a text from Mrs. Tube Sox just this afternoon saying, do we have any windshield washer fluid in the garage? To which I replied, yes we do.

SPEAKER_04 21:41

Always gotta have it. But you never seem to need it, but now you do. And then when as soon as you go to use it, it's like, nope, you're out. And you just hear your motor going, nothing's happening. Then you can't see, then you gotta stop at the gas station, use it for the water. And drive it into the sun. Right? Ugh. Especially with the way your windshields get and all pitted and shit. Because all the rocks on the road that were under the snow that aren't now. It all connects, see? So yeah, I did that. It's all number six. Construction's starting to show up. Lanes are starting to be closed for impending construction.

SPEAKER_03 22:14

Just when you want to start uh moving.

SPEAKER_04 22:16

Right? Just when we go from winter. You think you're going from winter to spring? It's actually just nope. It's winter to construction season. Why do you gotta close that lane right now, huh? Why? Just stop. Or just finish your damn job. Why is it gonna be closed for two weeks? It was a three-day job. Right? Frick. Fired up now. Number five. The mornings are cold, but the afternoons are nice. How do you pick a jacket? What am I supposed to wear? It's shorts weather in the afternoon, but it's minus nine when I go to work. It's also dark when you go to work. Well, not me. I don't go to work that early. But that I guess that's an honorable mention, is it just a time change bullshit? Whatever. Don't get me started on that. Number four. Your vehicle is just constantly dirty. Because it's dry, but then it's muddy. But then it's wet, but then it's dry again. It's dusty, because there's all this gravel on the road that was under snow. That's now not.

SPEAKER_03 23:14

I hit a pretty solid puddle today and actually went right over the roof of the tube socks. Yeah, now the roof is dirty. It was kind of fun though. Yeah, that sure, okay. It was kind of, I was kind of playing around actually. I I kind of hit it on purpose because I was hoping it would give the full water follower, and it didn't disappoint.

SPEAKER_04 23:31

Okay, well, so some things can be fun. But the dirty part of the car is not, and it's ugh. Number three, seasonal allergies. I don't know if you've noticed. I'm a little sniffly. I've noticed it. Last week I was just a mess.

SPEAKER_03 23:48

I uh don't have any of those.

SPEAKER_04 23:50

I didn't either until now, I guess. Now I do. I didn't think I did. Take my allergy meds. Take your allergy meds, there you go. Number two, ice when you park in the morning at work, and it's slush in the afternoon, and your shoes get wet and your socks get wet, and you're just uncomfortable. I don't know about you, but that seems to happen in my parking lot often at work. They don't and could because it's not a big enough parking lot that we can all move so that it can be cleared. So that when they clear it, they just say clear the middle between.

SPEAKER_03 24:25

But it also didn't help that it uh it rained overnight, so in this morning it was a nice sheen of right.

SPEAKER_04 24:30

That also didn't specifically make it as a line, but that's just all encompassing of this BS weather in the mornings are cold and the afternoons are nice, but then evenings is cold again, so it starts to rain, and now it's ice. I think freezing rain, god, that can go to hell. That can kick rocks. Holy shit. Oh, sorry.

SPEAKER_03 24:54

And the number one what's the top of the list?

SPEAKER_04 24:57

The number one worst part of this time of year is fake spring.

SPEAKER_03 25:03

I call it false spring.

SPEAKER_04 25:06

That it you know what I mean when I when someone says fake or false spring, you know exactly what we do.

SPEAKER_03 25:10

We had false spring about three weeks ago.

SPEAKER_04 25:13

It's plus twelve for a week, and then we get a foot of snow. And even this week, looking at the forecast, it's kind of nice. It's sunny downtown right now, and even though it's gonna be sunny downtown later in the week, it's gonna be minus twelve. Bullshit. He doesn't need that. I don't need that in my life. Freak sprinking kick rocks. Damn it. Now, you know what? I was doing so good.

SPEAKER_03 25:37

Your technique is getting worse, though.

SPEAKER_04 25:39

And honestly, is I gotta get thicker cards just so I can throw them farther.

SPEAKER_03 25:43

Maybe just need to spend some time practicing. I just maybe it'll you know calm your you know what?

SPEAKER_04 25:51

I mean, Jesus loves you. I need to go to uh the chakra house. I gotta get balanced here because this whole weather thing and time of year and there's puddles everywhere.

SPEAKER_03 26:04

Uh March is the uh worst weather month of the year. Absolutely.

SPEAKER_04 26:07

I was so razzled I didn't even get my honorable mention. Which is puddles where they're not supposed to be because drains are fucking frozen and plugged from ice and snow and garbage. Ah I was doing that list, and not gonna lie, I probably had 15 things. And I it actually took me the longest. This was the longest it ever took me to make one because I had to cut stuff out.

SPEAKER_03 26:30

What a time for you.

SPEAKER_04 26:31

The other times I'm like, I only got seven. I gotta try to find three out of my ass here to get to ten. Oh, yeah, this is my top ten list, but I only have seven. Wow. I feel as though people will relate to that. But I hope you do. If you do. Not that guy in Singapore. No, that guy probably has a very different appreciation of March than we do.

SPEAKER_03 26:52

Yes.

SPEAKER_04 26:53

But if you do agree, like, comment. Let me know your least favorite part.

SPEAKER_03 27:00

Yeah, see if you're uh in huke's world where as far as the uh smarts weather goes.

SPEAKER_04 27:06

Yeah, does fake spring piss you off as much as it pissed me off? I didn't even know it pissed me off that much until it started making that list. And then I was just getting fired up.

SPEAKER_03 27:14

I can see that.

SPEAKER_04 27:16

Not as far as reading the list. That's two weeks in a row now. I got pretty fired up over that coffee thing. Oh my goodness. Funnily enough, though, uh Friday at uh the first part of this charity event that I was at, I was talking with someone there, and uh I had posted on my Instagram a picture of my coffee on Friday morning. No, with the droplet. With the little droplet on my console, and the first thing she said to me was like, Oh my god, that I experience that all the time. These coffee lids can go to hell. She told me a story, she was at work, sits down, whatever, is getting logged in, takes a swig of her of her coffee, dribbles all the way down shirt, first thing in the morning. You can't live like that. Can't what what are we supposed to do with that? Now you gotta go to you gotta work two shirts because your coffee lid sucks?

SPEAKER_03 28:06

That's terrible.

SPEAKER_04 28:07

God, just you calm me down with something.

SPEAKER_03 28:12

Well, how about we talk about that movie?

SPEAKER_04 28:14

Yeah, that'll calm me down. Maybe you'll get fired up, I don't know. Maybe so this last week, if you weren't there, you should go back and watch because it was a good episode. But I discussed The Taking of Pelon 123, the original, as that was assigned to me by Tube. Uh great film. Go go check it out. Uh and in my assignment to him was the movie Flight, Denzel Washington.

SPEAKER_03 28:42

I believe it's 2012, actually, is the uh year on it.

SPEAKER_04 28:45

2012. So a newer movie that I almost guarantee you've never heard of. Well, you said you never heard of it.

SPEAKER_03 28:50

I had never heard of it.

SPEAKER_04 28:52

And this would have been your first full-length feature film with Denzel.

SPEAKER_03 28:56

Denzel Washington movie to watch. And I will say just right off the top, it was a very good movie. Yes! I do have some notes here.

SPEAKER_04 29:07

Oh, I love notes.

SPEAKER_03 29:08

I will say actually uh Denzel Washington. He was he's turns out he he seems like a decent actor. I might watch another one of his pictures. He kind of knows what he's doing, eh? I might watch another one of his pictures.

SPEAKER_04 29:18

I might have to give you a little list of recommendations because there's some good ones.

SPEAKER_03 29:21

I did find it interesting, though, that um I did find that the movie did seem like two completely different films glued together.

SPEAKER_04 29:28

Uh yeah, kinda.

SPEAKER_03 29:30

It was the uh the insane plane crash thriller, then the very slow addiction drama for the next two hours. Yeah, it's apt. But it was uh again, it was a very good movie, though. I I was very entertained by it. Um hell of a plane crash, though. It it did feel like filmmakers accidentally made the best airplane disaster ever. And then remembered they were supposed to make a uh dark character study. So it was like, oh shit. There we go.

SPEAKER_04 29:57

It was a hell of a plane crash. Oh my goodness. Like he inverted the plane. That was something. When have you ever seen that? Well, I never have. I I think my favorite part of the plane crash, other than like the was it like there's like a wedding going on by the pond by the church. Well, yeah. They crank the steeple. Yeah. But then it's when they're going over like a motel upside down. Yes. And the paramedics are like taking this junkie out of a motel room and they look up and there's just an upside down plane. Smoke trailing behind it.

SPEAKER_03 30:29

I've got a few other little notes about the beginning here. It's a fantastic opening scene.

SPEAKER_04 30:34

It's pretty good, huh?

SPEAKER_03 30:35

And nice to see that he drinks a Triple WS approved beer.

SPEAKER_04 30:38

He does, which I did notice that. I noticed that right away. I forgot, and I'm like, hey, hey, hey, that is triple WS approved. If you know, you know. But we gotta get him stickers.

SPEAKER_03 30:48

Yes. Um we gotta get stickers to Hollywood. Excellent music, perfect use of Joe Cocker.

SPEAKER_04 30:54

You know what? I wouldn't have known.

SPEAKER_03 30:55

And uh also I did find it interesting and inspiring decision to use the Cowboy Junkies version of the Velvet Underground Sweet Jane instead of the original in that very first uh drug scene when they're trying to write themselves before heading into the Cowboy Junkies Canadian band from the 80s. Uh but yes, I recall they covered that song and uh I immediately went, well, that's weird they're not using the Velvet Underground, but it actually worked. So, because anyways, totally works.

SPEAKER_04 31:24

It's a good film. Like I just think I I love obviously that that junkie scene is is humorous.

SPEAKER_03 31:31

I do have some uh some character uh notes if you're interested.

SPEAKER_04 31:34

Oh, I'm absolutely interested.

SPEAKER_03 31:35

I I I love I I love I want to see how your brain is down whip Whitaker, the most functional disaster in aviation.

SPEAKER_04 31:43

Honestly, that accurate description.

SPEAKER_03 31:44

Uh he might be the most competent drunk in cinema history, that's at least that I've seen.

SPEAKER_04 31:48

The fact that he can like he's talking to the stewardess and he's just like behind his back, like uncorking a mini bottle and like throwing in his juice, and it's just like a not, yeah. Just like, yeah, no, I'm just gonna do this, like, and you can't even tell. He's like a magician.

SPEAKER_03 32:02

I appreciate that he treats cocaine like a pharmaceutical reset button. That's just like the all clear, okay, I'm good. Pretty much that's it. I'm in horrible shape and I can't. Oh, boop, I'm good now.

SPEAKER_04 32:15

Like the fact how it it the way it works when because that was what the before right before the trial, when he goes into the mini bar and just like goes to town. Oh, I've got a little note about that. Right? No, it's uh uh No, it's it's not. It's uh oh shoot. Guy from Roseanne. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. John Goodman. It's John Goodman, not Vincent Danafio. It's John Goodman. Just be like, hey, yeah, well, here's your drugs.

SPEAKER_03 32:45

Um the movie constantly insists that he has a disease, but he spends most of the film acting like a guy who knows exactly what he's doing, but just doesn't care. So he doesn't seem like it's not problematic for him. I mean, as slightly as you see the peripheral thing with his wife and his son, but it seems to be getting on just fine. He does seem to be functioning. Although I do find there was an interesting kind of a a little bit of emotional back and forth with you're kind of rooting for him, and then it's like, ah, you're drinking again. At the same time. He's like, you know what, you're fine drinking. You mean like when he's working on the plane and he's got the beers out again, you know.

SPEAKER_04 33:21

You might go with a whole like, do I want to cheer for him or is he the bad guy in this film?

SPEAKER_03 33:26

Right. Because he's kind of both. He's kind of loser-ish in the sense that, oh come on, man, get your shit together. Because you did it for that spell. You had it right. You would fit you figured yourself out. But then you didn't. And I mean that's a good thing. And then Nicole the redemption subplot that disappears. Glee, the maybe level fix him character, and she was very engaging and charming. Her arc is interesting early on, you know, the other addict trying to recover, but then she just disappears from the movie. Yeah, it's odd. She just gone. Poof. Which is kind of a bit of a hole in the It's not a perfect film. No, no, but that was it was noticeable that she just all of a sudden was gone. She is, just because she kind of pulled you in. She did her job well. Um also actually I really like the scene where when Whip comes by her place and she's moving out, and she's moving her stuff into her vehicle, but she wasn't going to drive anywhere because her vehicle doesn't run.

SPEAKER_04 34:16

That's just her new home.

SPEAKER_03 34:17

She just was moving the stuff out in her vehicle because she had to get it out of the place. That was kind of sad. It uh you just came by with a baseball bat to get rent from this 110-pound chick. Like, you don't need to bring a baseball bat.

SPEAKER_04 34:31

Yeah, you probably didn't have to do that. It's there's some interesting scenes.

SPEAKER_03 34:34

Which brings me to Harling Mays. Okay. Possibly the most entertaining entertaining drug dealer ever. I had noted down here that he enters the movie like a tornado of cocaine and bowling shirts. That is a He's like a whirling dervish.

SPEAKER_04 34:48

He just incredible description of him.

SPEAKER_03 34:51

Um like a whirling dervish who sells coke. Although I will say that uh his energy sometimes seemed like he just stepped out of a different film. Like it was a little like he just dropped out of a Cohen Brothers movie and just showed up in a scene because they needed a drug dealer. Some drugs and and they needed a reason to play some Rolling Stones music. Because every time he shows up to play the Rolling Stones. I mean, great, love the Rolling Stones, and they're the perfect band for that drug at all.

SPEAKER_04 35:21

Seemingly a very applicable band when it comes to that era drug usage. Yes.

SPEAKER_03 35:29

Um, but again, really good. Again, I'm I'm nitpicking. I even put my notes here. Nitpicking here, because uh, you know, I need to nitpick a little bit.

SPEAKER_04 35:37

Well, you gotta pick the nitpicks.

SPEAKER_03 35:38

Oh, I didn't really like oh, I didn't really like the cancer guy's vibes. He made me uncomfortable, and I was happy when he left the screen. In the hall in the stairwell, I didn't like him at all. Like he was actually bothering me that he was in the scene.

SPEAKER_04 35:49

So, hey, hey, get go, just go. You're you get out of here.

SPEAKER_03 35:53

Yeah. I did not like him at all. And he's in the movie for like probably like one scene. Yeah, just that scene. And they're just having a smoke. Yeah. But he just needed to just they could have done without it. Get your smoke and just leave. He just made me uncomfortable.

SPEAKER_04 36:07

I mean, if that's the biggest knit you pick.

SPEAKER_03 36:10

Well, and I've never seen a movie before where the mini bar becomes the final boss villain. I honestly didn't see that coming because it looked like he'd uh he'd whip that. Well, that's and then when you see him just grab that one thing, it's like already taking that back to his room. Then the next scene is the room's fucking blown up and the door's ripped off the bar, and it got it got aggressive. It really did. And uh, and I mean, I know in uh Pelham 123 I pointed out, you know, one of my favorite lines.

SPEAKER_04 36:38

The nail your pecker to the wall.

SPEAKER_03 36:40

Well, the the yeah, the line that followed that. Oh. And I think my favorite line in this was just when at the uh the the hearing when Whip just says, I'm drunk right now. It's a powerful little line, right? Right? Because there's a bit of a pause. He does the turn because he's like, he can't he's pretending so hard. And he can't throw the chick under the bus because she well, she's dead. So honestly, he could have. Because it was gonna be nailed to her that she had drank those vodka bottles on the flight. He could have done it and just been, yeah. But he he couldn't.

SPEAKER_04 37:12

It's a little bit of a powerful scene.

SPEAKER_03 37:14

It is, but final note here is the movie asks a strange question. If a drunk pilot saves 96 people, does he have a drinking problem? I don't think he does. Because I think if he wasn't drunk, he wouldn't have made that decision. Uh you you know what? I think that's the whole thing. And so he argued that maneuver and he saved everybody. Well but six. Well, he saved everybody. That's a decision you make when your your nerves are calm because you're Oh, yeah, you definitely don't that's your that's your stolly nerves.

SPEAKER_04 37:43

You you're not sober and make the make the the idea to invert the plane. It worked out, but and then revert it and then just softly land in a field.

SPEAKER_03 37:53

Glider in. That's felt bad for his uh his co-pilot when they had that scene in the hospital when he had his his legs are all pinned up and crushed and his pelvis yada yada and his and his Jesus loves you wife. Yes.

SPEAKER_04 38:05

Yes. He got the worst of it. Yes. Well, other than you know, the dying part.

SPEAKER_03 38:10

But then it was also interesting when he did say in that scene that he didn't tell the investigators anything about what he thought of his condition. Which shows he's like, alright, I'm not gonna, you just kind of ruined my life. But actually, but you saved my life. That's the way it's so I'm not gonna I'm not gonna point out that you were reeking of uh and booze. Because we actually would have no one would be here if it was. Yeah, we probably wouldn't have made it. So I found that interesting because he was the the church guy with the the church wife, and they were all very and he said, Oh, I know that you were this and this and I suspected this. Alright, well, yeah. So but I didn't tell the investigators that kind of like that's between you and your god what you did.

SPEAKER_04 38:50

Yeah. So it's it's pushing the morality back on him.

SPEAKER_03 38:53

Yeah, interesting. Pushes the guilt onto him.

SPEAKER_04 38:56

The guilt for sure.

SPEAKER_03 38:58

But then again, he shouldn't feel guilty for saving 96 people.

SPEAKER_04 39:01

Well, yeah, he no it and that's I think the whole dilemma of that movie is that is uh I did not expect that whole angle of the story.

SPEAKER_03 39:09

Right. And uh I will say in future uh things, I'd like to know less about a movie before I go into it.

SPEAKER_04 39:15

Okay. Here's the title, here's your while you watch it.

SPEAKER_03 39:17

Yeah, here's who's in it's from this year.

SPEAKER_04 39:19

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 39:20

Because then now you're watching I'm watching the movie.

SPEAKER_04 39:22

I guess you knew it was gonna crash.

SPEAKER_03 39:24

I knew there was gonna be a crash.

SPEAKER_04 39:26

Well, does it not say in like the description? I don't know.

SPEAKER_03 39:28

I don't read the descriptions.

SPEAKER_04 39:29

Ah, fair enough.

SPEAKER_03 39:30

I like to go into movies totally cold. Okay. I go, oh, Sterling Hayden's in this movie. Oh, it's a Western place takes place in 1863.

SPEAKER_04 39:38

All right. Okay, good to know. I'll watch that. Good to know. I will give you less information on that.

SPEAKER_03 39:43

Yeah, less information the better. Because and then I do like to look up afterwards, like if I watch a whatever and I have my feelings about a movie, I like to go to a little site and like, oh, see if that agrees with me or see if well that's weird. I like this movie. Why did all these people hate it? Or fills up more often than not, you go. Or converse. I thought this movie kind of sucks. Like, oh, apparently I should have liked it more. Huh. So I like to read up on a movie after. I mean, that's fine. I like to go into the very little, I don't even like seeing like I don't like seeing trailers.

SPEAKER_04 40:12

Oh. Well nowadays trailers are usually made-up stuff, anyways. Half the time a trailer doesn't even happen in a movie.

SPEAKER_03 40:19

Well, there we go. Okay. But yeah, that was no, it was a good movie. And it was a good, I think that was a good introduction to uh Denzel? Denzel Washington.

SPEAKER_04 40:26

Well, and he's got better movies, he's got better action movies.

SPEAKER_03 40:29

I I'm not a big action movie guy.

SPEAKER_04 40:30

Well, then I know exactly what I'm giving you next time.

SPEAKER_03 40:32

I I enjoyed his big time shoot em up. I thought he was good in that movie. I liked his subtlety of his character.

SPEAKER_04 40:40

Yeah. Well, I need to know so I don't give you crap. Well. I mean, I'm gonna. You give me what you give me, and I'll still give to give you crap sometimes.

SPEAKER_03 40:49

I'll tell you what I like and you'll give me the opposite. Maybe I won't. Maybe I'll give you something that is just right up your alley one day. There we go. But yes, no, he was good and it was a good movie.

SPEAKER_04 40:58

Lovely.

SPEAKER_03 40:59

And any any any uh things I had issue with it was just it was nitpicking just because I feel I have to. But no, good movie. When I might watch a second Denzel Washington movie.

SPEAKER_04 41:10

Oh, yeah. He's not he's got some good ones. There would be some you would enjoy, I think. They're not all just shoot 'em up.

SPEAKER_03 41:21

He does like to shoot 'em up. See, also, it's funny because I have a a uh a picture in my head, not a picture in my head, but whatever you call it in your head, when when uh like I I haven't watched one of his movies, but he seemed to he's remade things that I like, so I avo I've avoided. Right. Like one of my favorite shows as a kid was The Equalizer. Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_04 41:42

And he I was just gonna say, yeah, I think he made two movies.

SPEAKER_03 41:45

It's like, no, The Equalizer is is the English actor John Wood Woodward. Uh now it's Yeah, see, I so like nah. I'm not interested in that because I like the old English guy driving the Jaguar. I mean, that's fair.

SPEAKER_04 41:59

So it just seemed that you haven't watched a lot of the taking of Pel Monday 3. There you go. Because you like the original. Anyways.

SPEAKER_03 42:08

Okay, well that's that. That was another uh we're not assigning a movie this week for for you. We're gonna take a little break because again, it's not an every week thing.

SPEAKER_04 42:14

But we'll get back to it. We will get back to it because uh I'm excited to see what the next one is. It's fun. We've gone 50, what, 59 and 74? I'm assuming we're not gonna keep going up and you're gonna give me a 2001.

SPEAKER_03 42:25

No, no, we'll we'll lie somewhere between the other two.

SPEAKER_04 42:28

Seems like a good safe place.

SPEAKER_03 42:30

Should we go to uh kick rocks if you want to read a liner? We absolutely can. We got uh I think it's a new sponsor again this week who's knows one of our other sponsors.

SPEAKER_04 42:40

They do know each other, and we have heard this name. Let's hear it. This sponsor, yesterday's donuts.

SPEAKER_03 42:47

Ah do great work.

SPEAKER_04 42:48

Located in the old plaza right next to the Crystal Chakra charging station. Bing bong. It's word of mouth right there. Next we'll get the fix it shop on board. Hey, we got two out of three. Exactly. We're working through that old plaza. We're gonna get there. Uh yesterday's donuts. They believe a donut's true flavor doesn't appear right out of the fryer. It takes time, reflection, and at least one full night on the cooling rack.

SPEAKER_03 43:13

Absolutely, I agree.

SPEAKER_04 43:14

At least one full night. Gotta dry out a bit. Choose some classics like Day Old Glazed, The Settled Sprinkle, and their customer favorite, the Boston cream that's really come into its own. That's nice. That's a good donut. Right? You really know that they're really coming into it. Every afternoon at 3 p.m., don't miss that. We found another trade discount hour, which when prices drop faster than the glaze. Wow. So swing by the old plaza just past Ed's Fix It Shop, next to Crystal Chocolate Charging Station, and ask about their famous Baker's Regret dozen. A dozen of sordid donuts they simply didn't have the heart to throw out. Couldn't do it. Yesterday's donuts, because fresh. It's just a phase. It's just a phase. It's just a phase.

SPEAKER_03 44:03

It's a brief phase. All they wanted was a Pepsi.

SPEAKER_04 44:08

Yesterday's donuts. Welcome on board. What is going on with the cards today? Terrible. Yikes. It must be those seasonal allergies. It's the seasonal allergies. My shock was all messed up. Is Mercury still in the microwave or something?

SPEAKER_03 44:22

I think I think it's out. I think it's uh it's out of the microwave. Okay, here we go. Three things rocks.

SPEAKER_04 44:33

Number one, sleeves served as pints. I know you have uh a knit to pick with this.

SPEAKER_03 44:41

Absolutely. We've discussed this before. And it's okay if they advertise it as a sleeve. But I've had experiences where I order all of a pint of said beer and they bring me a sleeve. And I say, I ordered a pint. Oh, well, these are our pints. That's a pint is a unit of measure. It's not for you to decide what a pint is. I'd like a liter of gas, please. Well, here's 500 mils. That's our liters. That's what they're saying.

SPEAKER_04 45:12

Yeah. I I can't, I there's none me that can disagree with that.

SPEAKER_03 45:16

The correct answer is we don't have pints. We have sleeves. We only have 14-ounce sleeves. Okay. Number two, adult-sized bucket hats. Oh, come on. Adults should not be wearing bucket hats. Yes, they should. It's a toddler hat. No. It's terrible. No, it's not. I'm not gonna go on. Good. And number three, that professional golf sim league. Oh! TGL? What is even in that? What are they doing? I'm They're playing golf on a sim. It's great! I'm at the bar and it's on TV. That's almost worth it. It's an exciting sport. It's a golf sim. Who watches people play simulated golf? God. What a stupid thing that is.

SPEAKER_04 46:00

Better than watching live.

SPEAKER_03 46:03

Come on. Woof. You don't even like golf. I don't even like watching real golf stuff. Can I watch simulated golf, please? Of course you don't like it. You don't like golf. A bunch of pros hit into a curtain? Well, yeah, but it's fun. It's so weak.

SPEAKER_04 46:17

Storylines.

SPEAKER_03 46:18

It's so weak.

SPEAKER_04 46:19
