Doug hates candy wrappers, screaming baby, sticky seeds with 50 azepop or kernels in his teeth.
There's still not one that he won't see, cause Doug loves movies!
Hey, hey, hey everybody! My name is Doug and I love movies. This is Doug Loves Movies recording Thursday afternoon, June
29th, 2023 Kingsman, the Golden Circle of Friends with Benefits of Wonderful Life as
we know it. And my guests today, my guests today are Alex Hooper, Amy Miller, and Greg Warren.
Hello.
Yay.
Hey.
Let's meet everyone individually and alphabetically.
I always like to say at this point by first name, but you're still in the same order,
whether it's by first or last name.
It doesn't change a thing.
So let's just go think of it either way.
And let's start with Alex Hooper.
Hello, Alex.
Hi, I'd like to think I would have been first anyway.
Well, you know, there's lots of societal rules
that, you know, apply.
One might say, you know, Amy's been on the show more times say her name first greg warren's first
time on the show maybe so he should say you know there's so many ways to go with it alex
well with a name like alex you and then hooper you just you nailed it today you're first you've won
by virtually doing nothing i mean I'm happy to be here.
What an honor.
Well, you know, I was going to open with congrats on being alive.
I like to say that to you.
Thank you very much.
It was quite a tumultuous 12 months for me.
But here I am, sillier than ever.
Yeah, you're out there making everybody laugh.
You sad clown, you. That's me, laugh, you sad clown, you.
That's me, Pagliacci in the flesh.
You can actually see Alex and my next guest and myself all together at the Levity Live in Oxnard, California on Thursday, July 27th.
And that next guest is, of course, Amy Miller. Hey, Amy.
Hello, everybody. Congrats on being alive.
That's, you know, back at you. We're doing it.
Thank you.
Us and Liza Minnelli. We're out living lots of things.
Have you seen that Twitter account?
No.
It's a Twitter account that just posts every time something dies.
It just reminds everybody that Liza Minnelli outlived it.
That seems rude.
To which?
To everybody.
Yeah, it is rude all around,
but at least part of that equation is people who are dead
um i don't know how much the dead follow uh twitter accounts you know what i mean um
joining us for the first time after too long a time wait yeah that's right yeah
it's greg warren everybody hi guys, guys. How you doing? How you doing? I'm doing great.
Excited to be part of this. Where are you joining us from? St. Louis. Okay. I had a suspicion. So
you're about two hours ahead of California time. Everybody else you're competing against. I hope that
doesn't affect
the game at all.
Well, I feel there should be some sort of
handicap. I've been awake two hours longer.
A little slower.
Days winding down here.
You're closer to nap time
than ever. Yeah.
But also he knows the future.
There's two hours of world happenings that we don't know about a lot's coming your way alex that's really a good point yeah yeah yeah and now i'm telling
you none of it's good uh do you have the new indiana jones already oh yeah yeah we saw that last week uh yeah we got to well that's way ahead so what's
your uh what's your review uh uh i didn't see it uh i i wish i really was excited for
i know i wish i could have kept that up for a while man uh you don't even know
at this point what you know what pretend opinion to have because the movie could really
even though some reviews are out that are somewhat encouraging i still feel like i'm gonna either
you know just love the nostalgia of it or i'm just gonna be annoyed by the whole thing
i was surprised this one actually takes place in
indiana i thought that was a bold choice to finally put that together greg's in the movie
yeah they're like let's put it in indiana where it belongs and bring in fleabag to be his uh
sidekick and uh you know the british lady amy did you just lump indiana and missouri together that's very
all the same to me yeah elitist
i look away from the window it was flying over it was such a solid reference that i just let
let that go but uh you know uh you just don't you don't hear about it as much
st louis indiana but it's uh it's a great little town
it deserves a shout out as much as uh any other place hey thanks doug yeah we appreciate it and
congrats on being alive as long as we're telling everybody that oh yeah yeah thanks for that
kind of a fun sentiment that you don't hear from people in general.
You only hear it from Scrooge on Christmas Day.
Yeah, why does Alex get all the credit?
I was staying alive the whole time he was.
I've heard that sentiment so many times over the past 12 months.
Yeah, I mean, you went through some stuff too amy but i think it was an easier 12 months overall so easy
i feel like i'm not living talking to you guys like oh really well i feel like i'm coasting
it seems like you guys have been flirting with death.
Life is just more chill in Indiana.
Indiana, yeah.
Here in Indiana, it's slow,
guys. It's a nice pace.
Yeah, but
it picks up around
corn season.
A little kernel of wisdom from Doug.
Now I'm thinking of Kansas.
All right.
Well, before we play our games today, our very silly games,
we're going to visit a recommendation for some serious movie talk.
This is where I ask each of you to recommend one movie from a specific
category that I will share with you now. Suggested
by Miss Krita, C-R-I-T-T-A
Miss, M-I-S-S, Krita, on
Twitter. The suggestion is
disaster movies so i'm opening it up to oh man i think she
specifically means movies about disasters uh natural or otherwise but i'd like to open it up
to movies that are disasters uh as well just whatever whatever you define however you define disaster movie uh because we're looking for ones
that you recommend i'm guessing either because it's so bad it's good or because it's just
there happens to be a disaster movie that is just good i don't i don't know for sure if there is
such a thing but we'll start uh here's the alphabetical thing biting you in the ass alex
you have to go first that's okay i'm
i'm ready for this one because i love disaster movies and i'm gonna throw one out there that
probably is kind it's not really disaster but i love it so much water world oh okay because that
is like post disaster apocalyptic kind of film. But I mean, I personally,
I think the film is brilliant.
I think it's underrated.
There's an amazing Jack black cameo.
Dennis Hopper is hilarious in it.
I personally think if you,
if you think that movie sucks,
go back and watch it and then write me as to why you didn't like it.
Because I support that movie a hundred percent.
Apparently. Yeah. If you're a big uh water world guy i think anybody uh who stumbles onto it without any preconceived
ideas uh would probably enjoy it because it's a the the action is well staged it was obviously
very difficult to make because of the insane idea of shooting out on the water.
There was also a hurricane that happened
and it cost them $40 million in disasters to the set itself.
So, destruction.
I mean, it was a challenge to make that movie.
Yeah, they really had to live a post-apocalyptic situation
where they had to rebuild.
And they did it out there in the goddamn water.
And people make so much of how Kevin Costner drinks his own pee
in that movie.
And it's just like, try it before you uh knock it is what i buy it
and you can't be can't be your own pee it has to be his pee because i bet you
i bet you he's he he had a diet that he knew what he was doing i bet you he was making himself
a delightful mix that's what he was delivering in The Postman. He was delivering his own urine to all of these people.
You know, he's just trying to help everybody survive,
whether on land or on water.
You know, he knows how important it is to stay hydrated.
It's so easy to feel like you need to pee when you're watching Waterworld.
Yeah.
Waterworld is fun because fun because you know something that
didn't uh kind of has improved over time i think is that the bad guys are called smokers and they're
really into you know setting things on fire and and and you know smoking in general so uh and you
know so that's a good you know the idea of smoking cigarettes gets more and more evil over time.
And then the support this movie gets on a daily basis in Universal City, California, with the live action Waterworld stunt show, which I've said this before, and I'll say it now, is probably one of the best amusement park shows ever.
Agreed.
It's awesome.
It's so good.
It's ridiculous.
Man, I got to get out there for that, guys.
I don't know who's going to see it.
I was just at the park with children, and there was no convincing them.
They were like, what's water?
They don't care.
They're like, we want to go to Nintendo World.
Yeah, we got to go check out the Secret Lives of Pets,
which is cute, but it's boring.
And the line is too long.
Waterworld, you just walk in, you sit down.
If you don't sit in a splash zone,
they pretty much leave you alone.
And then you just watch just so much water action and stunts and fighting.
Is it all just people over 40 watching this show alone?
I think the whole family's coming.
I think the thing about Universal is there's not, there's like four shows in the entire property.
So if you're into that kind of thing, and people seem to be, I think water world's got good, good word of mouth,
but you're right.
There's gotta be like somebody in,
in the group,
you know,
it's gotta be a dad in the group that makes the call.
There's that little girl.
Come on,
everybody.
We're going to see water world.
Isn't the little girl with the map on her back or head or something?
Was she,
is she part of the show?
No,
I don't think so. I'm talking about Dora the Explorer. Rip off. There show no i don't think about dora the explorer
her name's enola in the movie enola yeah there's no uh there's no where they explore there's no
child character in the stunt show there's just the the woman played by gene triple horn in the movie
and then the mariner which is kevin costner then some guy doing a like they always
just hire a bald stuntman to wear an ipad to pretend to be dennis hopper i think because of
child labor laws they can't have a kid in the show they could have the grown actress with the map on
her back what's she doing but he gets to do riffs you know he gets to as dennis? But he gets to do riffs. You know, he gets to, as Dennis Hopper, he gets to say, you know, silly things that are like, you know, semi-topical.
Yeah, the opening line is he swings a golf club and he goes, look, I'm Tiger Woods.
That's the first line of that live show.
Yeah, that's the kind of thing that's in there.
But, you know, in context, it's hilarious.
Yeah.
I think Tiger Woods was still in his prime when Waterworld came out and still innocent.
That might have been a lift from the motion picture.
They might have just did that directly.
Amy, that's a tough one to beat.
I mean, you know, it was considered a disaster because of how much money it cost to make Waterworld.
But what's your what's your recommended disaster movie?
Not too long ago, I watched Daylight for the first time.
Yeah.
I don't know how I had missed it.
That just sounded like somebody admitting that they sleep all day uh the other day i saw daylight for the first time
listen i've been depressed
the first sign was that i was watching the movie daylight
i think we should head toward the daylight The first sign was that I was watching the movie Daylight. All right.
I think we should head toward the daylight.
We're in the tunnel still.
So this is Sylvester Stallone.
And they're in the subway during an earthquake.
The Holland Tunnel.
What city?
So it's a great city of san francisco there's this there's i swear there's a tunnel on holland street
i think it's uh vigo's in it and vigo more yes and yeah they're just trying to get out of the tunnel there's a dog involved i won't spoil that
what happens there she's no damsel in distress though like she knows more about what's going on
than anybody else right she's like a structural engineer or something they won't listen to her
of course yeah of course she's so stupid they want to follow the guy with
the big muscles it's hilarious don't build tunnels it's hilarious when global warming uh you know
it destroys all of us but you know somehow film manages to be preserved people are gonna see so
many movies where we warned ourselves there's like so many movies where the bad guy is just you know
trying to cut corners you know trying to get more rich and you know or being real greedy and then
ends up getting themselves and everyone else killed but they get to die first and we that's
my favorite trope of disaster movies is when the guy that caused the disaster has a gnarly death, you know, two-thirds of the way into the movie.
Sometimes he'll live till the end.
How long does the...
No one's at blame with daylight, though, right?
It's just sort of more like the earthquake really was intense.
Yeah, pretty much.
People are at fault throughout the process of trying to get out.
Just, you know, who's the leader? What's the just you know who's the leader what's the best
way yeah yeah um but other than that yeah it's just kind of a natural it's just it's a failure
of infrastructure yeah well this is uh this is another uh thing that's quite apocalyptic.
I like the old-fashioned disaster movies where only one city or structure was screwed.
These are a little more far-reaching.
Because I'd imagine that earthquake did more other damage other than just that one subway that Sylvester Stallone happens to be in.
You would think so, yes.
Yeah.
Well, thank you for that recommendation, Amy.
Greg, have you thought of a recognizable disaster?
I was going to go with The Postman, but that seems sort of anticlimactic at this point.
At what point did you think of The Postman?
I swear to God. When Alex brought it the postman when i swear to god i thought
when alex brought it up no i swear to god before he said uh the water movie i swear to you but
that's the first one you thought of because i think that's the thing is it's hard to
disassociate it's hard to take the word disaster away from a flop rather than a movie about like
the hindenburg or whatever yeah and i i always thought the postman was a great movie.
I,
I mean,
I,
I've always loved me,
but,
um,
I did some quick thinking over the pandemic.
I watched this film,
a deep water horizon.
It was about,
uh,
uh,
like a BP oil rig that,
uh,
blew up in,
in the Gulf of Mexico near Louisiana and,
and killed a lot of people.
And I don't remember a lot of specifics,
but I liked it.
I can tell you that.
It's not that first of all,
that's true.
At first,
it's not funny.
First of all,
it's a hilarious comedy.
It's a satire about the mistakes that were made.
It's kind of a reimagining of what happened
because hundreds of people died,
but in the movie, Mark Wahlberg keeps that number low,
like two or three.
I'm just kidding about that.
It's comical death.
Which he would have done at 9-11
if he had been in a plane himself that's what i was trying to
refer to was that if he'd have been there uh you know if he'd actually been at deep water horizon
then it probably wouldn't even have happened if he had been in that submarine last week i mean
it would have been a wholly different story i don't know why he hasn't released yet james james cameron and mark walbert just went
down there the two of them together and then came back and went see it's that simple
just gotta know what you're doing i mean james cameron's already been down to the titanic a
bunch of times so like it's it's the whole story is kind of weird that they that they had such a but again back to what we're talking about with disaster movies
they're being warned this isn't going to work and then they go ahead and do it anyway
um so there was some of that i think uh with deep water her eyes there was some yeah they
ignored some uh some warning yeah like somebody brought in like a you know a painting his kid made at school and
he like put it up over uh you know an important valve so no one noticed that it was uh
malfunctioning you know something like something happened is that how these things get hidden i
didn't that's it's genius you never know you just it's craziest things happen you know when people
they don't follow the right protocol.
What's it called again?
Deepwater Horizon.
Deepwater Horizon.
That just sounds like a horrible real estate deal.
In fact, it was.
Horrible land development, you know.
Some sort of waxing studio.
Oh, wow.
They get everything oh my god
lots of names for waxing
salons
that are also films
one could argue
water world and daylight would both apply
so
Deepwater Horizon i i saw it it's i think
it's a um competent action movie that um you know isn't critical enough of what you know what went
wrong there but uh but yeah it's uh you know uh it's well made isn't kurt russell in there too
kurt russell i think malkovich is one of the uh
bp execs he's one he's the one that's like makes the like he rolls his eyes when they don't do what he says and then you know and then somebody dies in the next scene
you know like he's always like he's no he's knowing yeah yeah yeah he's knowing. He's knowledgeable Johnny Malkovich.
And these are great recommendations.
You know, what did I think when I asked for disaster movies?
I was going to get, you know,
Schindler's List and Citizen Kane.
All right, so...
Schindler's List is the ultimate disaster film.
Right?
That's like two disasters a little too
large in scale probably with that one who's looking forward if you ask rosanne
you know what it's funny i don't get the opportunity to ask rosanne anything really
you know because yeah i have questions
she's got answers.
Yeah, that's true.
That's a good point.
So maybe I should keep them rhetorical.
There's no need to her.
Her answers get so much attention. If you just didn't ask the question in the first place, you know, might not have gotten so much play.
But we have to go to a commercial break.
We'll be right back
we are back
during the break we were talking some more
about Roseanne and I agree with
everything you said Amy
so let's
play a game
it was a good show
his first
game we're going to play is a little
something I call how How Long Is It?
And that's a game where I'll name a thing,
and you guess how long it is.
Not long enough.
Not that kind of guess.
You've got to be really specific.
It's got to be closest without going over.
It can't be like a philosophical answer.
It has to be one that involves actual numbers uh and it's you know closest without going over and it's uh price is
right style and uh alex you're gonna get to go first then amy and then uh, and I'll tell you what the thing is,
and then Alex, you go first.
You guess how long it is.
And a lot of players like to discuss their answer,
why they're picking what they're picking,
but be careful because that also, the other players can hear you.
We couldn't afford soundproof booths for this part,
so everybody's everybody.
But that is kind of a cool idea, soundproof booths.
Are you ready, Alex?
Go for it.
Tom Hanks in the makeup chair
during the older
Colonel Tom
Parker
part of his filming
of Elvis.
In minutes.
In minutes.
He had makeup on?
A lot of people said he did the method, put the weight on, He had makeup on? I'm going to...
A lot of people said he put the weight on.
He did the method, put the weight on.
But no, that was makeup.
I will say 162 minutes.
100.
I always have this problem when I'm trying to figure out
how long a movie is when they're like,
it's 152 minutes. My mind doesn't
know how long that is. I guess that's two hours
and 32 minutes.
How many did you say again?
I said 162.
Okay.
That's two hours and
42 minutes. 242, correct.
I see. Okay.
242. I mean, 162 minutes? 242, correct. I see. Okay. 242, I mean, 162 minutes in the makeup chair each day,
getting ready to be older.
Because they really did do phases as he aged,
he got, you know, bigger and jowlier.
Didn't win the Oscar for best makeup,
because it turns out another makeup team is making another
actor even bigger.
Right.
That's what you do to win that award, apparently.
Amy.
Doug.
How long was he in that makeup chair?
I'm going
to say
four and a half
hours.
And that's 200.
And I think it's 270.
I like it.
I like someone out there doing the mathematics.
Hit me with that number.
This was a real game show.
You know, there'd be somebody on the side just holding it up on a card.
370 minutes.
Okay, Greg?
This is a real game show, Doug.
Oh, okay.
I'm glad you feel that way.
I'll go
431.
Oh.
Wow.
So that's, what's that? 271? 431. Oh. Wow. Wow.
So that's, what's that?
271?
Oh, man.
Yeah, 271.
Yeah, it checks out.
271.
All right. Wait a minute. Now that you said it in minutes, it sounds high.
Oh, you thought Amy was was high you're trying to dollar
yeah yeah thing where you just add a dollar right yeah yeah yeah you gotta pick the right
amount to add the dollar to i'll i'll stick with my answer you're going 271 yeah okay so alex says
a 162 which seems like you know that's a long time to be sitting there getting
that stuff put on to eventually not even win an oscar and then and then if only he had a crystal
ball he went to australia got covid came back here didn't win an oscar it was a whole whole mess
yeah he threw it through a tantrum when he didn't win that asker
he was like 271 in the chair 271 in the chair and i got nothing just like his niece on that tv show
i love how in your scenario he's saying your answer is how long he's been in the chair well
i'm sure i'm sure of this answer you're it happen. I have a lot of conviction about my
answer.
Alex
said 162.
Amy's at
270 minutes.
Then Greg
pulled the classic
dollaring
with 241.
The
correct answer is 300 minutes greg you did it
oh my gosh that is brutal yeah five hours of just and they say he would sit very still and he wouldn't uh you know talk or move around
so that's some real i mean alex i'm not trying to get there i don't want to take a shot at you
alex but why would it be a trivia question if it was an hour and change like yeah what are you doing
yeah i said 160 use your head that's like two and a half hours
that's not you know i mean god i was trying i was trying to hedge your answer and make it sound
dumber but that means brendan frazier was in the chair for like seven hours i thought brendan
frazier went method i didn't even realize he was wearing makeup in that movie you know yeah Fraser Fraser six minutes it was uh yeah I mean guys I've been wearing a lot of
makeup the last couple years um yeah that's uh five hours is um that's some real like
that's amazing.
I remember hearing that like Kelsey Grammer when he played the beast.
I feel like that was like six hours or something like that.
So they'd have to put all that fur on him.
Right.
So I'm saying it just it took almost just as long to make Tom Hanks look old.
Jesus.
It's hard to make Kelsey Grammer look more handsome.
It's not just, Tom Hanks isn't just old.
He's just got like, you know, jowls.
It's just like he's monstrous.
You know, he's like, looks like a Disney cartoon villain,
but the movie is, you know, live action
and everybody else looks normal.
He looks like, you know,
he's got like Jimiminy click style makeup on
yeah they had to put on a bunch of like weird moles
half that time is just moles they had to make him uglier i guess because in this movie they really
lean into what a villain he was and now he like controlled elvis's life so he's just like he's
just so grotesque it's just it's bizarre
and somebody pointed out in an article in some fancy you know journal uh somewhere that uh tom
hanks only when he plays like somebody who's like a bad guy it's he's like in makeup and doing a
weird accent or something like he's never like just looks like regular tom hanks and then he's
an evil character well because we wouldn't be able to handle it in our hearts i don't think so
i don't think so but then i thought of that movie when he was in with emma watson it was like about
cults or something i never saw it it was like the circle or something like that and uh i think he's
a bad guy in that but i guess he's just more like probably more smarmy than
than evil but I don't know
I mean I thought Forrest Gump was a dick
such an asshole
eating all the candy himself
that's what I say though
he had an accent in that
because he's a villain
I just felt like in Elvis, he was doing gold member, kind of.
It was.
It was.
He really kept waiting for the people to get in his belly.
It was just weird.
It was just a really weird choice.
I didn't get it other than, you you know i guess it's a fun acting challenge
for him but uh i'd rather i think he should make a david s pumpkins movie before he does another
yeah if you can just win for being in a fat suit then we need to get mike
myers and eddie murphy some more oscars quick
tom hanks needs to stop playing people that actually exist i've had enough you
know or people that did exist like people we know what they look like you know what they sound like
it's not tom hanks but then so he does a good acting job of approximating it but it's this
person that's as famous or more famous than the person they're playing you know i drew the line
it's sully sullenberger it's just like no there's tom hanks with the sully sullenberger costume on do that on halloween get it out of your system
i don't need you to play hard for the whole movie there's somebody like phil baker hall
that already looks exactly like the guy it could just show up and do it
well not now not well a good point but you, I dated this thing back to when they were making that film.
Hey, Greg, you did it.
You won the first game.
So congratulations on that.
Thanks, Doug.
I'll tell you exactly what it was you won after this commercial break.
We are back, and Greg was bothering me during the whole break what did i win what did
i win what did i win well greg let me tell you now i finally can tell you and thanks everybody
sitting through those ads thank god it means you get to go first in our next game oh yeah
in your face miller but turns out that's's generally not much of an advantage at all in these games.
In fact, it could be a disadvantage.
Well, then what did I win for?
I'm like, Hanks, why did I sit in the chair for five hours when I didn't get the...
For the love of the art, Greg.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Exactly.
And if there's a tie, you get to go first in the tiebreaker.
So that's an exciting thing that you have in your back pocket.
Okay.
If you need it.
Hopefully we won't get there.
Hopefully somebody is going to really know this subject of this game,
and they're going to knock it out of the park.
Let me just take a quick drink of water.
Now let me get my own hair, my own head hair out of my mouth.
And here we go.
The fifth, and if we can hold back the progress
of AI
final Indiana Jones movie
is out now
in honor of that
let's play
Indy or Mindy
I'll say a fact, fun or otherwise,
and you tell me if it applies to Harrison Ford or Pam Dauber,
who, of course, played Mindy McConnell from 1978 to 1982
on Mork and Mindy.
Or neither. So the answer is either Indy and Mindy. Or neither.
So the answer is either Indy, Mindy, or neither.
First person gets a fact.
You answer one of those three answers.
If you miss, then it goes to the next person.
And if they miss from the two options that are left,
then the third
person gets a gimme point each round starts with the next person after
whoever managed to secure a point Greg you're up first then we'll go to Amy and
then we'll go to Alex does then we'll go to Alex.
Does all of this make sense to you,
Greg?
I got it,
man.
Yeah.
Okay.
Sounds confident.
All right.
I know the rules guys.
I know.
I listened.
Okay.
It's all that matters to me.
You know, I just,
I'd never want the new person to be uh you know
left behind because i'm right with you on this game man i know yeah i know
yeah Harrison is a Pisces. Is it?
Pam Dauber, a.k.a. Mindy.
Harrison Ford.
Yes, it's Pam Dauber.
It's Pam Dauber.
Neither.
Those are your choices.
Which one?
Mindy.
Pam Dauber.
You're sticking with Mindy.
I gave you a chance there to switch it up, but you're sticking with Mindy that she's a
Pisces.
That noise means incorrect.
Are you sure that's what that noise means?
I know it does also sound kind of
fun and like kind of
celebration a little bit.
Nobody's sure what that noise means.
I've done a lot of morning radio
and a lot of times that that noise means things are going well wow you hear when you hear the
noise when you get when someone gets it right then you'll go okay now i get why i hope it's a slide
whistle i just the one noise is kind of a it's kind of to, it's kind of to me, it's sort of like participation trophy.
Like you get the, you got the answer wrong, but you get like a fun, upbeat noise.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
So that means we move on to Amy.
Do you remember which one he said, Amy?
Yes, I do.
Who do you think said Pisces?
Wait, are we saying Indiana Jones or Harrison Ford?
Either way, I think
we'll all piece it together.
Oh, okay. I'm going to
say neither.
Now, how do I say it?
Do I say Harrison?
Neither.
That, in fact, is the correct answer.
Yay!
That was so zany.
That is the correct answer noise.
I hope everyone understands the difference.
Yeah.
It turns out neither of them are Pisces.
Pam Dobbers, she was born in the month of October.
And Harry Ford is a cancer.
He's a July baby.
Happy birthday, Harry.
Yeah.
Me too, Harry.
Come on out.
Let's have a party together.
I'm so entertained when people think Harrisonrison ford or anyone of his ilk is
listening to this podcast it could happen sure you got to do something while you're flying a plane
at the party you can congratulate him on being alive alex
all us cancers
you got double cancer cancer moon and cancer body All us cancers.
You had double cancer.
Cancer moon and cancer body.
I had stage three Harrison lymphoma.
Oh, no.
Okay.
You had to go see Dr. Jones to get it fixed.
You can't.
I'm sorry.
That's so good.
I'm sure that Alex told Dr. Jones to hang on to his potatoes.
Alex, you're up first on this next one.
Amy's on the board.
Greg, you'll still get your chance.
You just wait.
But Alex gets to go first.
Here we go.
Grew up.
Raised in Cleveland.
Ooh.
Pammy Dobbs.
Harry Ford.
Or neither.
I'm going to say Pammy Dobbs on that one.
You're going Pam Dobber.
Grew up in Cleveland, Ohio. Not Cleveland, Missouri, just to be clear.
Yeah, Ohio.
Yeah, that one.
Who do you say is Pam Dauber?
I said Pam Dauber.
Yep.
Mindy.
Mindy or Indy.
You say Mindy.
Incorrect.
Wow.
See, Greg, it's back around to you.
Do you think it was Harry or Harrison Ford or neither that grew up in Cleveland?
I'm going to say Harrison Ford.
Indiana Jones.
Feels like he would have done that, right?
Yeah. Seems like he would have done that, right? Yeah.
Seems like he could be from there.
He's from Chicago.
Oh, man, this is such a shakedown.
Pam Dauber, Detroit.
Harry, Chicago.
Congratulations, Amy.
I like that somebody's... Neither.
These facts could have been like that so far these facts
could have been about anybody so far.
Well, you know, that's the thing.
It's like you use deductive reasoning,
but the twist is there's absolutely
nothing to cling on to as far as clues
in some cases. But you might have had an inkling of
where one of them was from just from you know maybe reading about them or or something you
know or just having seen them in a recent interview but amy is on top i will say this
my wife is from cleveland and we do call it the Temple of Doom.
So there you go. There you have it.
I like to picture Alex just sitting at home reading about Pam Dauber.
Doing some reading, honey. No, she's not from Cleveland. If you're wondering, you are.
That's the only reason I read any book is to tell my wife who's from cleveland
who's from cleveland tell her about deborah winger oh she is yeah there's some good ones i'm sure
there's some good ones i can't think of any immediately but other than uh you know drew
carry of course steve harvey there you go There you go. Those are two of the greatest game shows of all time.
Okay, Alex, we got to play this game.
Yep.
And it's all on you right now.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
But you got this.
Just keep in mind, one of them is an actress that worked with Rob Williams in television.
The other one is Harrison Ford.
work with rob williams in television the other one is harrison ford
you know i mean take what you know about those two people and apply it and hope you can figure out the answer here's the fun fact once played a character named stink bug named Stinkbug.
Is it Pam Dauber,
Harrison Ford, or neither?
Indy, Mindy, or neither?
I'm going to double down
on Pam Dauber because if it's neither
again, this has been the most pointless game
I have ever played in my life.
Right? It would be ridiculous.
Have you met Doug before?
Just neither game I have ever played in my life. Right? It would be ridiculous. Have you met Doug before? If it was just neither again would be
like some sort of dumb mind game.
It's like, you know, what's going on?
We came here for some serious
movie trivia.
Yeah, what's wrong with this guy?
So you say Pam Dauber?
Yeah, I'm going to say Pam Dauber.
Ah, man!
Hey, Greg.
Hey.
What do you make of this?
Does this make any sense to you?
What do you think?
Has neither of them ever played a character named Stinkbug
or is the great Harrison Ford?
I'm going to have to say say neither you're going with neither yeah i'd feel like a fool like when would he what you know was he a child actor i can already
tell by the way he's talking he did that i'm wrong what do you mean i'm just trying to explain
you're selling the left so you can hit me with the right.
Your correction is neither one of them, to the best of my knowledge.
You could have in a school play or something, but to the best of my knowledge, no stink bugs.
No stink bugs necessary.
Greg, you're on the board alex i know nothing about pam dauber so
that's gonna be my answer every time just because i figure she has to be an answer somewhere
one of those 80s uh family sitcoms had to have a best friend named stink bug right i mean so yeah
um uh i don't know about stink bug i don't know i don't know about I don't know
this is something that came to me
but
yeah there may have been at some point
in the history of all things
but we're going back to
Greg
got the point on that one right
I did yes
so Amy you go first on this one
you're twisted
whatever you get the point alex gets to go first on the next one all right
so if you get a point right now alex is first on the next one
uh appeared in a tv movie called have you paid the piper
neither you think neither of them have been in a motion picture made for television called
have you paid the piper i don't think anybody's ever been in that movie. I can't believe you never saw Have You Paid the Piper, Amy?
You think it only aired in St. Louis?
What?
I mean, it debuted here.
Strong numbers here, but it didn't air only here.
We supported the film.
We enjoyed it.
A lot about our community yeah yeah it was about
it's got a midwestern flair but a lot of other people on the both coasts enjoyed that film
internationally it did well yeah the china markets really loved what was it i don't even know what it was called anymore. Time to pay the piper?
Have you paid the piper?
And Amy is right.
The answer is neither.
Starring Rowdy Roddy Piper.
Everybody knows that.
I'm about to go smoke the piper right now.
Piper Paraboo, I think, was... I thought she...
Pam Dobber was in a TV movie called
Do You Know the Muffin Man?
I was hoping it would sound vaguely
familiar to somebody like, oh, I think I've
heard of that. All right.
Who got that one?
Amy again? Oh, my God.
Amy again.
This is your chance to get in the game,
Alex. You need this one.
This one's important.
First
film appearance
was in a movie
called
Ferris Wheel on Fire.
Neither.
Neither. I'm just saying it. Neither. i'm just saying it neither you're just saying it you just
i want i want to go with a trend here and say you're like it's always neither so that would
be so fucked up if either of them was in a movie called ferris wheel on fire oh my god i can already
feel the spring is about to bounce you got on the board, Alex. You got it right.
Oh my gosh. Thank you.
I'd like to thank the Academy, the director.
Harrison was,
on the other hand,
in real life, he was in a movie
called Dead Heat on a Merry
Go Round.
The real thing.
Sounds like a Steve Miller lyric.
So Alex
really thinks he's got this figured out,
Greg, but you're up first on this next
one. You need this point
to have a chance
to take out Amy Miller.
On a date.
Dinner and a movie
you cheapskate
I gotta get this right
appeared in an
episode of the
episodic weekly television program
called the Rifleman
Harrison Ford
you think Harrison Ford
young actor harrison ford possibly appeared on the rifleman
yeah yeah i i i don't know much about that uh show except for there's there's gun sounds
at the beginning the rifleman yeah yeah well you need to learn a little bit more.
No, no, no.
Incorrect.
Incorrect.
Sorry, Amy.
He's not sorry, guys.
He's not sorry.
Neither.
You're going neither.
I'll go neither. You're going neither? I'll go neither.
You say neither.
Okay, Tomato.
Wait, which one?
You said neither or neither.
Both count, of course.
Amy, you ran away with this thing congratulations amy miller everybody oh my gosh she absolutely killed it um we're gonna get into if this game has kept going we
would have gotten into some like more personal stuff um like um you know which one has had them had more pets that
have died questions like that but um you know we're just not going to get that deep this week
because uh like i said amy ran away with it but uh here's my favorite one just to you know throw
it out at you since we have a second here. A couple seconds.
What do you think about this one?
Rescued a teenager from a burning car.
Neither.
No, Dauber.
Dauber did that.
Definitely Dauber. Why do you think Dauber did that?
She's athletic.
She's got a fresh face.
She's got a fresh face. Yeah, she's got a fresh face uh and i there's just a fresh face yeah she's got a fresh face
and she's she's got a she's uh flame retardant she's got a good heart you could tell she's
she's heroic right yeah i think well i think it was cause it was in conjunction with her then and still,
uh,
husband,
Mark Harmon,
uh,
the actor,
the two of them,
uh,
pulled somebody out of a burning car teenager in,
uh,
uh,
1996.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'll give them a little too.
So what is that? What I wonder what that point, what that teenager is up to today.
I would love to have you guys as a guest on the show if you're listening.
Congratulations, Amy Miller.
Once again, you get to go first.
You got to do your plugs first.
What would you like to promote?
Thank you so much.
I'm really excited and honored.
I have a bunch of shows coming up all over the place.
Austin, Vermont, Milwaukee.
Go to my website, amymillercomedy.com
and follow me on Instagram at amymillercomedy.
That's it.
I wish that list had gone on forever.
That would have been hilarious.
But those three are a good start. comedy that's it i wish that list had gone on forever that would have been hilarious but uh
those those three are a good start yeah it's pretty solid right absolutely and you know and
as champion today i i'm telling you that uh we'll have you back on the program uh at your earliest
convenience and uh yeah i hope Dauber is the other guest
we've been trying to get her
I thought maybe if I made a game
that involved her
and I'm like
Mindy what rhymes with Mindy
and then I saw an ad for
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny
you know so the dial they mean like is it going to be rotor like a rotary phone
that's gonna take forever that's his destiny is just just dialing the goddamn number
he's gonna die while while dialing the number. You forgot the one. Greg Warren,
great job today.
What would you like to plug?
Thanks, Doug.
I felt good about that burning car thing.
I feel like it kind of
made up for some of the stuff.
Yeah, that salvaged
your performance here today.
Thanks. I have a new uh
i have a new comedy special out uh called the salesman it's on uh youtube it's on nate bargazzi's uh youtube channel but you get to swear, though. You can swear?
No, I don't swear.
You don't mess around with that either?
I don't mess around with that.
You and Bart Gatsby start some sort of no-swearing cult.
Well, I wouldn't say so much
as that.
I mean,
if you're interested,
I can send I can,
I can send you some literature about our organization and it's, it's sort of a multi-level thing.
A lot of the words are bleeped out, but you'll get, if you,
if you find three of your friends that don't want to swear and then they get
three of their friends that don't swear, it's, it, it, it all adds up.
I'll call Seinfeld and gaff again when this is over so uh the people handing out religious
pamphlets as they had as a person they should do they they should say do you like clean jokes
because nobody gets more excited than when they hear those words um but yeah that's uh you know the the best comedians can work clean
and so uh good good on you for that and um uh thank you for being on this this dirty dirty show
and nate bargazzi won't do the show because he's he doesn't like he doesn't feel like he's good at movie trivia um
he may do it he may he may be
on after my performance today
right that might encourage him a little bit
yeah yeah yeah
uh that's why i was kind of taking a
dive just so you could get nate
i knew all of that stuff
thank you i think i don't know dauber
yeah there'll be a little something extra in your Christmas bonus for doing that.
Who else is left out there?
Just me.
Who hasn't done their plugs yet?
Just me.
And I better do them because my membership in the Harrison Ford fan club has been revoked.
I just got an email.
So what?
I know.
They said I didn't know enough about your
email during the show it just popped up i forgot to turn off notifications
