Starting point is 00:00:00 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.
Starting point is 00:00:49 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.
Starting point is 00:01:15 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.
Starting point is 00:01:50 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.
Starting point is 00:02:23 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.
Starting point is 00:02:48 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
Starting point is 00:03:20 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.
Starting point is 00:03:56 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
Starting point is 00:04:45 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
Starting point is 00:05:32 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?
Starting point is 00:06:16 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,
Starting point is 00:06:52 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,
Starting point is 00:07:16 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
Starting point is 00:07:56 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,
Starting point is 00:08:45 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.
Starting point is 00:09:07 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
Starting point is 00:09:49 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.
Starting point is 00:10:27 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
Starting point is 00:10:59 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.
Starting point is 00:11:35 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.
Starting point is 00:11:55 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.
Starting point is 00:12:26 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.
Starting point is 00:12:37 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
Starting point is 00:13:05 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.
Starting point is 00:13:50 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.
Starting point is 00:14:22 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.
Starting point is 00:14:59 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
Starting point is 00:15:46 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...
Starting point is 00:16:30 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.
Starting point is 00:17:13 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?
Starting point is 00:17:43 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,
Starting point is 00:18:08 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,
Starting point is 00:18:19 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.
Starting point is 00:18:35 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.
Starting point is 00:18:48 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
Starting point is 00:19:08 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
Starting point is 00:19:58 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.
Starting point is 00:20:29 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
Starting point is 00:20:55 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
Starting point is 00:21:31 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.
Starting point is 00:22:03 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.
Starting point is 00:22:29 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
Starting point is 00:22:51 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,
Starting point is 00:23:10 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,
Starting point is 00:23:46 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.
Starting point is 00:24:12 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.
Starting point is 00:24:37 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.
Starting point is 00:25:00 100. 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.
Starting point is 00:25:17 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.
Starting point is 00:25:41 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?
Starting point is 00:25:59 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.
Starting point is 00:26:20 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.
Starting point is 00:26:38 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.
Starting point is 00:26:53 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
Starting point is 00:27:27 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
Starting point is 00:28:09 said 162. Amy's at 270 minutes. Then Greg pulled the classic dollaring with 241. The
Starting point is 00:28:24 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
Starting point is 00:29:30 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.
Starting point is 00:30:03 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,
Starting point is 00:30:22 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
Starting point is 00:31:05 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
Starting point is 00:31:35 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.
Starting point is 00:31:58 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
Starting point is 00:32:36 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.
Starting point is 00:33:14 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?
Starting point is 00:33:52 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.
Starting point is 00:34:16 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
Starting point is 00:34:47 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
Starting point is 00:35:21 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
Starting point is 00:35:45 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.
Starting point is 00:36:10 Okay. Sounds confident. All right. I know the rules guys. I know. I listened. Okay. It's all that matters to me.
Starting point is 00:36:22 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.
Starting point is 00:36:54 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.
Starting point is 00:37:08 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
Starting point is 00:37:32 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?
Starting point is 00:38:01 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?
Starting point is 00:38:19 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.
Starting point is 00:38:40 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.
Starting point is 00:38:59 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.
Starting point is 00:39:32 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.
Starting point is 00:39:56 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.
Starting point is 00:40:13 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.
Starting point is 00:40:33 Yeah, that one. Who do you say is Pam Dauber? I said Pam Dauber. Yep. Mindy. Mindy or Indy. You say Mindy. Incorrect.
Starting point is 00:40:45 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.
Starting point is 00:41:10 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.
Starting point is 00:41:28 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.
Starting point is 00:42:07 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.
Starting point is 00:42:49 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
Starting point is 00:43:11 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.
Starting point is 00:43:42 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?
Starting point is 00:43:58 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?
Starting point is 00:44:17 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.
Starting point is 00:45:03 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
Starting point is 00:45:35 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
Starting point is 00:46:01 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.
Starting point is 00:46:42 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.
Starting point is 00:47:15 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.
Starting point is 00:47:41 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
Starting point is 00:47:55 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.
Starting point is 00:48:26 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.
Starting point is 00:48:45 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.
Starting point is 00:49:03 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
Starting point is 00:49:21 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.
Starting point is 00:49:55 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?
Starting point is 00:50:18 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?
Starting point is 00:51:10 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
Starting point is 00:51:28 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,
Starting point is 00:51:53 uh, pulled somebody out of a burning car teenager in, uh, uh, 1996. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:02 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.

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.
Starting point is 00:52:44 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
Starting point is 00:53:14 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?
Starting point is 00:53:52 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?
Starting point is 00:54:27 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,
Starting point is 00:54:46 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
Starting point is 00:55:28 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
Starting point is 00:55:57 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.
