Doug hates candy wrappers, screaming babies, sticky seeds
With 50 acid pop or kernels in his teeth
There's still not one that he won't see
Because Doug loves movies Hey, hey, hey, everybody.
My name is Doug, and I love movies.
This is our love, movies.
That's even, like, a bigger crowd would be less loud than that.
You guys are awesome.
And we're coming to you once again,
and that's why I keep coming back,
from Helium Comedy Club.
It's a gas!
In Portland, Oregon!
Yeah!
It's Sunday, April 24th, 2016,
and you guys never let me down with the name tags here,
so put them up.
Let's see what you got.
Oh, no, that one has Jeff Tate on it.
Whoa, there's a lot of them.
I got to Viner Periscope the part of the show where
everybody puts up their name tags
because this is quite a dazzling
array of
shit.
What does that say?
Ben Trouble in Little China?
Yes!
That'd be a great name for
just a character in something.
My name's Ben Trouble.
What's it say instead of Hustle and Flow?
Russell and Flow.
Generations.
Jen with an E. That's good.
Matt Tatooie on his phone, which is very high tech,
but you're going to lose your phone for a while if you get picked. Alright, put them down,
you guys. Thank you so much for bringing those.
I saw
looks like John Belushi and a dog
back there. Or Jim Belushi,
I should say.
What was it? You changed K9 to something?
My name is K.
Your name is K, so K9.
I like it.
Doug Bluggs, Thursday night,
Washington, D.C. I'm doing stand-up at the Improv, and we'll play
a game if you bring name tags.
Oh, and that reminds me. Monday night's
New York City Doug Loves Movies
is sold out, but there's tickets
available for Wednesday,
April, what is that, the 27th?
And
Doug Loves Movies is also coming to
Zany's in Rosemont, Illinois
on Wednesday. May the 4th
be with you.
For more dates and deets and whatnot, go to douglosemovies.com.
That's douglosemovies.com.
The prize bag is heavy.
And I don't even have what my guests brought in the bag yet.
We've got a CD by Alice in Chains.
I'm going to try to work my way up
to the best prize.
Smallest to the best.
A sticker that says
At Midnight from Texas.
A t-shirt.
That's the reaction you should have.
The t-shirt that says Jack Daniels on it Tennessee Fire
They're not a sponsor or anything
So that's the less said about that
The better
From my personal
VHS collection
Oh you guys I hooked you up good.
An episode of the show called Gross Point that I enjoyed a great deal.
Very underrated show that didn't succeed.
And then an episode of Felicity entitled Todd Mulcahy.
It's just a guy's name.
I don't remember episodes of Felicity well enough to know who Todd Mulcahy. It's just a guy's name. I don't remember episodes of Felicity well enough to know who Todd Mulcahy is.
Also a book that someone gave me
called How to Smoke Pot Properly.
A highbrow guide to getting high.
I did not crack this book at all
before regifting it
because I'm fine with how I smoke pot,
even if it's not proper.
And then these things are really cool.
From the world of rubber, we've got a rubber bowl
and a completely rubber pipe,
both from a company called Peacemaker.
Those are both in the bag.
And then,
this is so cool.
Two gentlemen that are regulars
on this podcast have shows coming up
on, I want to say, May 10th and 11th
here at Helium.
And their names are
Graham Elwood and Jeff Tate.
since they're not here today but will be here soon,
they want you guys to have in the prize bag two tickets to each of their shows.
And anyone who doesn't plan on going to those shows or wins the tickets
should change their plans
and win those tickets.
Do what you gotta do, you guys, to win those tickets.
Punch up your name tags while you sit there.
Add things to them.
Take out some money.
Nobody's ever done that.
Like, just put a nice $50 bill right there
On the fucking name tag
I bet you that would get picked
Little tip for the future
I'd find out what was
In the prize bag first
And then put the 50 on there
Depending on how valuable it is
And all these people
Brought great stuff too
So please give a big warm
Welcome to my guests
Brie Pruitt
Alex Robinson And Jacob Seroff.
Thank you.
All right, let's introduce everybody individually.
First time guest, Brie Pruitt is here, everybody.
Hi.
Nice to see you all.
Local comedy phenom.
Thank you.
Portland darling.
Yes.
The things I used to say all the time about Sean Jordan.
Right.
And then he up and moved to Los Angeles.
And I will pop right
into that role anytime that anyone
needs me to. Yeah, pop it.
Let's do this.
But you listen to the podcast and you
know how things go on Doug Loves
Movies? Not the really new games,
but I think I'm going to figure it out. Do you think you'll
fare well in movie trivia against these two
nerds?
There are some patches that I think these guys might school me on.
Right? Like Star Wars, for instance?
What?
Do you know a lot of Star Wars trivia?
I do okay.
I do okay.
All right. I think you'll be all right.
And what do you have for us for the prize bag?
I'm very excited about what you brought.
A tote bag that has one of my jokes on it.
It says, the bigger the backyard, the higher the property value.
It's a joke I wrote about my butt.
And you can enjoy that.
I also brought some goodies from a local arcade, Ground Control.
Got gift certificates, koozies, a t-shirt.
I have, I know this is not a big sports crowd,
but I have a Damian Lillard commemorative coaster.
Give some playoff energy, right?
I also have, taking a cue from you,
a Buffy the Vampire Slayer DVD.
Season two, disc three.
Just out of the wrapper, too.
I like that.
It feels like you might have just sent Netflix back an empty envelope. season two, disc three. Just out of the wrapper, too. I like that. Right, yeah.
It feels like you might have just sent Netflix back an empty envelope.
It's floating around.
It's all on Netflix, anyway.
Yeah, it is.
And also...
Holy shit!
I know.
I know.
I did the Riot LA Alternative Comedy Festival,
and they gave me a bullhorn.
And I figured this is Portland,
so you guys,
whoever gets this needs to give it to a very well-intentioned protester.
And Black Lives Matter.
Check.
Check, one, two, check, three, four.
Oh, no.
I need to have that in my hand soon.
Pass that down.
Holy shit.
I was bored in the shadows.
That's not going in the bag.
But pass the rest of the stuff down here.
I also brought a little bit of weed in there.
There's a little bit of Gorilla Glue.
A little bit of weed in there.
Put a little weed on it.
And we should also mention that the stuff from Ground Control is gift certificates for a total of $50.
$50, yeah.
Yeah, $50.
Pretty sweet.
A lot of games.
Yeah. So, sorry about that, guys. I didn't know
Bree was going to have such a great
prize game.
But let's meet another...
You've been on the show, but you weren't a
full-fledged guest on the show. We just
sort of did a little interview.
So it's his first full-time on the program.
Alex Robinson, everybody.
Thanks for having me Co-host of a show
That I've been on a few times
And love doing
The Star Wars Minute
Thank you
And now
But you guys live in different cities now
You and your co-host
Yeah I just moved to Portland two months ago,
and my partner still lives back in New York.
So we're, you know, long-distance relationship.
We'll try to figure out a way to make it work.
Yeah, it must be a shame that he lives in a galaxy far, far away.
But I guess Skype will be involved maybe in future episodes?
Yeah, we're still...
You're kind of on a break anyway, right?
We're still trying to piece it together.
What's that?
You're on a break anyway, kind of?
Yeah, we're just finishing up our coverage of Phantom Menace
and we're going to be doing Attack of the Clones
probably in the autumn.
Autumn?
Yeah, the autumn.
That's something for everybody to look forward to.
Exactly.
Back to school and, you know...
Have people been enjoying the Phantom Menace episodes?
Yeah a lot of people thought we were making a
terrible mistake because we
had done Star Wars. What we do is this podcast
where we basically spend 20 minutes
talking about one minute of Star Wars
and the next episode talks about the next minute of Star Wars
and so on.
It's very comprehensive.
Yeah. We did Star Wars
Empire and Jedi and then it was, are we going to keep going with
the prequels or not?
Because some people, including our guests, were saying, you're making a terrible mistake.
Don't do the prequels.
Just end it now.
But we went forward, and I think Jacob was a guest on our show.
Yeah, I think you need to play through, because eventually you'll do Force Awakens.
They're going to keep making them.
You can have an ongoing
minute-by-minute dissection.
Yeah, I mean, unless that doesn't
appeal to you. I'd be excited about it
if I were you. I'm in the Hamill trap
at this point. At this point, I'm
committing to Star Wars, and
this is for the rest of my
life. So, yes.
So, yeah, we did Phantom Menace,
and the results were
I definitely enjoyed doing
it and
looking forward to keep going.
I think it can be cathartic for everyone, both haters
and lovers of the prequels
if you do them all. What did you bring for
the prize bag? Well, in addition
to being a famous podcaster, I'm
a cartoonist as well and I do graphic novels
and I brought three of my books here
for the big prize package.
So there you go.
So I cast these down the list.
Did you sign them?
Oh, I didn't sign them.
I taught you that.
You gave me one.
I said, you've got to sign it.
I don't want to presume.
Like, who wants my signature?
I'm not, like, a famous person.
Oh, perfect. There you go.
Here's a sharpie for you
while we meet Jacob Siroff
is here.
Hey, poor Lenorgan.
Who here today got to see
Jacob do stand-up on Friday
or Saturday of this weekend
right here at Helium?
Hilarious, right?
Of course.
No pressure.
Yeah, no pressure.
You just have to agree with me.
But it was perfect for Doug Lowe's movie's weekend
because he has a big chunk about Superman
with Christopher Reeve's Superman.
That is very fun that I won't spoil
for future attendees of your shows.
But where are you off to next from here?
I know you were here with me all weekend,
but what's next for you?
I'm just back down in Los Angeles to heal some injuries.
Some people hurt you here?
Some physical ailments.
No, I hurt myself before I came.
Okay.
Yeah.
And then I do got a big...
Are we plugging stuff already?
No, I was just curious where you're going next.
I could ask you, so what movies do you have coming out?
My movies that I'm starring in?
Yeah, see, I can't ask you that.
Yeah, that would be zero movies coming out.
I'm hoping to be on more episodes of Star Wars Minute, though.
Oh, there you go.
The Force Willing.
Yeah, because you are a noted Star Prequels apologist.
Well, I'd like to say there's nothing to apologize for, but I'm a fan of those movies.
I said noted.
I at least kind of make it sound lofty.
Yeah, I guess you and Paul Scheer got into a big screaming match, famously.
I don't know if it was a screaming match.
Yeah, but they went after each other, which any sane person would do when talking to Jacob about the prequels.
So everyone was saying, we have to have Jacob on.
You have to have him on our show.
How was it?
Wasn't that lovely?
Oh, yeah.
You were very controversial.
It's the one thing I'm positive about.
Yeah.
No, but it was intimidating how much you loved the prequels and how willing you are to go to the mat to defend them.
How deeply I understand them,
I would hope, also.
Yeah.
I've explained them on a level.
I talk about them on a level
that very few people in the world
besides George Lucas and myself can do.
Yeah.
Jacob told me that that last time
he was on your show for Phantom Menace
that not only was he happy to do it
and enjoyed doing it,
but also that one of the minutes
that he got to talk about is his favorite minute.
He said it was the will of the force that he got
that minute. From that movie
or all the prequels?
I would say one of my favorite moments from the whole saga.
From the whole saga,
you guys.
The whole saga. It's like if I want to come on
to a show and defend the prequels
or make a case for them, or at least make my case
for them, why I enjoy them, that's the minute I would want to have. It was show and defend the prequels or make a case for them or at least make my case for them
why I enjoy them
that's the minute
I would want to have
and it was minute number one
like I turned it on
I couldn't believe it
I wish we could watch it right now
they give you the minutes
yeah
I'm always watching it
on a loop in my brain
what was it 95
do you remember
96
96
good old
alright nerds
settle down
I believe it was quite gun-jim.
We're going to scare off the lady if you guys keep nerding out about it.
What did you bring for the bag, Jacob?
Okay, I brought a Jägermeister shirt that I got at Swag somewhere.
I feel like in Portland, this is a girl's shirt,
I feel like in Portland it would be like a dude that would wear it.
Like some kind of ironic.
It's like pinkish, orangish.
I feel like a really large dude with a beard would wear that.
It's a moral, yeah.
Alex, maybe you now.
Then I brought this other team.
I'll just unload all my swag, you know, like everybody.
I got this shirt that I got at Citi Field.
Citi Field, It's a match.
I'm a big New York Mets fan.
I'm sure that we have some people here that moved from New York.
Everybody here seems...
Alex again.
Maybe you want...
Too bad you can't compete.
So that's a Mets t-shirt.
It's extra large.
I am not.
And I also brought some weed.
We can just talk about it.
Again, I'll take that.
I'll take that too.
I brought...
I've given that away on the show before.
I always have to say it's like tobacco or something
so that's kind of
and that weed
is by the way
called Jaeger
which is not
which is just
serendipity
again
nice tie in
the will of the force
right
exactly
this next thing
you got in
like a paper bag
like it's an illegal
like it's a bottle of liquor
I got this
in your lovely city
it's a stand up Reagan
it's a VHS tape
of all Reagan's
most hilarious moments
compiled into one.
To one. I mean,
it's like the best thing. I wish there were...
Can I get a dub?
Whoever has it, do you have like the double VCR where I can get a copy?
Because I... It's pretty amazing.
And this is the joke it quotes on the back.
It's been a very wonderful day. I guess now I can go
back to California, can't I? That's Ronald
Reagan on Inauguration Day 1981, everybody.
That's the kind of comedy magic you're going to get on this videotape.
Yeah, his joke didn't get a laugh because, I mean, not that it deserves one, but you
sort of just left him out hanging. The joke is that he just became president.
No, I get the joke.
And is saying, I can go back to California.
No, I got the joke.
No, I know you did, but then you presented it. You made it worse on his joke
by just making it sound like
at any random speech he said,
now I can go back to California.
I said he said it on another occasion.
You said that after you said the joke.
Oh, well, that's the order I read it in.
That's the order they print the joke in.
But that's, when you're talking about
what somebody said,
and you, forget it.
Bickering is pointless.
Do you guys need me to mediate or anything?
No, he just took out, like, the joke is actually not a terrible joke,
if you give it some context first.
Politics, right?
Oh, shit, this bag's heavy.
Yeah.
Hashtag heavy bag.
Somebody is going to get all of that stuff.
This is, I dare say it,
there's been some great things in the prize bag because an occasional person will just bring
something crazy good.
But I dare say this is,
the contents of this bag is the best prize bag we've ever had
on the show.
Does that include
the megaphone? I would personally
Oh yeah, the megaphone too.
I'll put it in there, but I feel bad parting
with it.
But it is going to come in handy during the show
today if anybody gets out of line.
I'll turn the siren on
and the talking part at the same time,
which isn't even possible. You got to choose. But yeah, somebody is getting this heavy bag today.
But first we got to, you know, talk a little bit about movies. And since we do have
two of the biggest Star Wars guys in the business.
We'll start with Brie.
Because it'll be interesting to see what she says without being influenced by the other two people on the panel.
What's your favorite of all the Star Wars movies?
Do you have an absolute favorite one?
Empire.
Empire Strikes Back.
For sure.
Pretty reasonable classic response.
Sure.
Alex, what about you?
I think I've got to still go old school
and say the original Star Wars.
For me, it would still be...
Less of a strong response.
Yeah.
No, it's fun how the applause is dying down
more and more with each guest.
But I'm sure Jacobs will get some applause.
Oh, yeah, definitely.
He's not going to sit here and say
one of the prequels is his favorite of all of them.
I'm going to do even worse than that.
We've done this before on the show.
I don't pick.
It's one through six tied.
And everything else.
One through six tied and Force Awakens
comes in second? Well, it's just a different...
It's not... Oh, yeah. We talked about how he doesn't believe
it's... He doesn't think it's real. I love it.
It's just... It's expanded universe. It's a new expanded universe.
You can't...
Right, but it's got the word
Star Wars right in there.
So, I tell you what.
I tell you what. Either put the microphone
down and walk off the stage or name one Star Wars movie
as your absolute favorite.
Boo?
Answer the question.
This is what I would do
to Donald Trump
if I was talking to him.
I wouldn't let him go,
I say six things.
But I don't have a,
I really don't have a favorite,
so I could pick one for you,
but I don't have a favorite
Star Wars movie.
Just lie to me.
Okay, Phantom Menace.
I mean, I think that's what I was supposed to say.
The nerd police are here.
They exist because they get mad
at people who are too nerdy.
Right.
I can summon them really easily.
Val Kilmer was the best Batman.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Shit.
Wow.
They're parking the car.
That's really...
I mean, I think he's definitely got the best mouth and chin area for it.
Yeah, it was hot.
I think he's the most
Batman looking in that part of his face.
And I guess he didn't do a bad job,
it's just that that movie wasn't terribly memorable.
No, it was really bad.
They certainly made it worse
with Batman and Robin. Oh, Jesus!
Well, the volume
was all the way up.
That's no good.
All right.
My next question
for everybody...
Oh, and I'll just answer
Empire Strikes Back
just because that is
the best one.
It is the best one.
But let's go to Bree
for the last motion picture
you saw in any format.
I know this is not Doug Love's visual albums.
However, the last thing I saw was Lemonade by Beyonce.
Okay, there's five women in here who are excited about that.
And then before that, because that is not...
I don't know if that's a movie.
It's an album, I guess.
Yeah, but since you brought it up, let's talk about it for a second.
Is it better than Milk Milk?
And then her next project where Fudge is made.
It's like, does it, it has a story or is it just.
It has a story.
It has a story.
It's pretty abstract, but it's a story.
The subtitle could be Lemonade or Fuck You Jay-Z.
Cause it's just a long story about how someone cheated on her.
She feels betrayed.
She's going to get over it.
They're a family.
And.
Whoa.
Yeah.
That's, that's crazy like is this common is this common knowledge that jay-z like has done this or is it well that's why her sister like solange knows
fought her in the fought him in an elevator that's what that was about solange knows what's up uh
solange probably we could go to her for the full story. But it's, I mean, there are a lot of rumors
that Beyonce has a side piece and like that's what it's about
or that Jay-Z has a side piece and that's what it is.
Yeah, so it's abstract.
You know, their personal lives are just for us
to speculate upon, you know.
Yeah, I just, I mean, I think she's super talented
and I like him okay.
So you have to have a certain streaming service to watch this thing?
HBO Go or now.
Oh, it's on HBO?
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
So I'll see it.
I'll see it over and over again.
I'll watch it in my hotel room.
Just get information.
I'll just have it on in the background, because it doesn't sound like something that I'd be riveted to,
but that it would be worth taking a peek at. Look at Sunday. Looked like there was a lot of pyrotechnics. I just saw it on in the background because it doesn't sound like something that I'd be riveted to, but that it would be worth taking a peek at.
Look at Sunday.
Looked like there was a lot of pyrotechnic.
I just saw clips on the internet.
There's fire, yeah, there's fire.
Oh, a lot of fire comes out of her vagina or something?
It's just like a lot of her walking down hallways
and everything bursting into flames behind her.
Oh, shit, yes.
That's why you gotta have some lemonade standing by
to douse those flames.
Douse those flames.
What about you?
You saw an actual movie?
An actual movie I saw before that was yesterday. My roommate was
watching SWAT.
S-W-A-T. So I sat down
and watched SWAT. Thanks for spelling it out for us.
That's what it actually...
Those are the... Yeah, do you know what?
It's special weapons
and tactics or something like that?
The movie didn't cover that.
Yeah. Why would they
get into that? They should just
coast on the fact that
it's a 70s TV show, nobody gives a shit about
it anymore. Sure, yeah. And then it's
what is it, Sam Jackson and Colin Farrell?
Sam Jackson, Colin Farrell,
Josh Charles, LL Cool J,
Michelle Rodriguez. It's a bunch of
ragtag mitzvahs
that decide to get in a SWAT together.
Because that's how that works.
Right, yeah.
It's like an Ocean's Eleven, like, put the team together vibe.
And then the team falls apart
because they were betrayed by Jay-Z.
No, it was by the two white guys.
So Jeremy Renner and Josh Charles.
Whoa, spoilers.
Yeah, SWAT.
Spoiler.
All right.
Yeah, I didn't care for that movie.
No, it's really bad.
I saw it in a matinee, I think the day it opened,
and then I walked away.
Never revisited it.
So thanks for that memory.
Alex?
I was trying to brush up.
Alex?
Do Netflix movies count?
Yeah, they do.
I saw a movie called Look Who's Back.
Does anyone know this one?
It's about a time-traveling Hitler comes to the present
and becomes like a big viral sensation.
And, you know, so, yeah, it's a dark comedy, I guess you could say.
But the guy did a really excellent Hitler.
Like, I was really impressed.
A great Hitler?
Yeah.
Is it an actor we know?
No, it's a German movie, so everyone there is, you know.
Wait, some Germans thought it would be a good idea
to make a movie about Hitler coming back?
I think Germans are the last people
to be reminding the world.
Yeah, maybe they're just leaning into it.
Yeah, if they just shut up about it a little longer,
maybe the Never Happened thing will catch on bigger.
They're owning it, I guess.
So yeah, that's a good one.
All right, but it's an entertaining movie?
Yeah.
It was very clever, and it has a lot to do with what's going on in the world today politically,
you know, the immigrants and stirring up those kind of emotions in people.
What are immigrants doing?
Well, get this.
They're trying to get into our country.
Oh, wow.
Word.
So that alone is... they're trying to get into our country. Oh, wow. So, uh...
That alone is...
I haven't been bothered by an immigrant.
I can't think of the last time an immigrant
did something that upset me.
Well, Ted Cruz.
Oh, that's true.
I do hate some immigrants.
Jacob, what was the last movie you saw?
It was The Jungle Book. I saw The Jungle Book.
And you enjoyed it.
I did. I enjoyed it a lot.
As do people in general. I thought it was extremely well done.
Yeah, it was.
It was like an A-minus B-plus.
I wasn't over the moon for it, but it was
so tactically well done.
Everyone said the kid was amazing.
I didn't think the kid was
particularly great or bad. I didn't think the kid everyone said the kid was amazing. I didn't think the kid was was particularly great or bad.
I liked him.
Like normal kid actor.
I thought he was alright.
Right?
But if people tell me
he's like a revelation.
I'm going to try to get him
to be on this show.
Yeah.
I'm going to try to get him
to be a guest.
But I'm going to insist
that he only wear a diaper.
Because that's how people know him.
They won't recognize him
in street clothes.
I'd like to see how
the movie was made.
I was really confused
as to what was real
and what wasn't,
as far as the background.
But I mean, which one of those animals that raised him
made that loincloth for him to wear?
He was the same one, I think.
And does he just jump in the river every once in a while,
so it's fine?
I don't know.
I turn to my friend at the movie and I go,
this guy's going to hit puberty and have to fuck a monkey or something.
There's no happy sequel to this movie.
I mean, everything's great when he's a little kid and he's playing with big stuffed animals, essentially.
Yeah, I don't want to talk about the ending of this new Jungle Book but uh jacob's right so um before we get to the quote-unquote
real games today i'd like to do a beta test of a new one uh yeah that's uh we played we did it
once already on the show but i still feel like it uh i want to make sure i get the kinks ironed out
of this thing it's called It's temporarily called Mashup.
That's the name that the guy who suggested it gave it.
And basically what I'm going to do is,
and this is no pressure, you guys.
Just enjoy your Fiji water, Alex.
But I'm going to name the stars of two movies.
And I'm thinking of two very specific movies
because the titles of those two movies mash
up into one title.
You know, build a title
style. Like if I said Marlon Brando
and Steve Martin, the answer
could be The Godfather
of the Bride.
Okay. See how that works?
Yes. Alright, cool.
So I'm going to start naming names. Just yell out guesses of the Bride. Okay. See how that works? Yes. Alright, cool. So I'm going to start naming names. Just yell out
guesses of the
mashup title
as soon as you have a
idea in your head.
Prince and
Dustin Hoffman.
Purple Rain Man.
Purple Rain Man.
That was so close.
I should have been watching you guys.
I knew someone would get it,
but I didn't know you'd say it at the same time.
But that was very tight.
So maybe lesson learned there.
I got to come up with harder ones.
But I just don't want the people
just sitting there with no idea.
And then I would go on to say,
this is how the game will work in the future like if nobody guesses correct on the first two names
then i'd say apollonia cotero and tom cruise oh i had no idea apollonia had a last name i know
and i just learned it this weekend the things you learn when somebody dies
um because it's on purple rains on TV a lot this weekend.
And I'll watch it every goddamn time.
And then the third name is,
names are Morris Day and Valeria Galena.
Galena.
That could be anything.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, it's still,
those two weren't in,
Morris Day isn't in a lot of movies.
But, you know what I mean,
that helps to give away what the
correct answer is when we do more, but
that was a great test.
That was it? Thank you very much.
Oh, you want more of those? Yeah, I want to get more of them.
Alright, let me think of another one.
Paul Newman
and Robert Evans.
The hard...
No, the...
What's the fucking kid?
Butch Cassian, the Sundance...
Kid stays in the picture.
Kid stays in the picture, yeah.
You guys are good.
What happens if somebody starts
and someone finishes like that, though?
That, well, you know,
fortunately we weren't really playing,
so it was just the first one I could think of.
And you have to drop that the out of there to smash the titles together,
which I don't generally like, but it still works.
Do you want me to think of one more?
Well, you're the host, whatever you want to...
Sure, give me one more.
You're the host, whatever.
Whatever.
Shit.
It's hard to just think of one spontaneously like this.
I'll think of one later in the show and just drop it on you.
Because right now, it's time for me to say...
Uh-oh.
Wait a second.
Oh, no.
Just make that open.
Where do you...
On the...
No, but where do you push it to make it...
Slide it over.
Yeah, no.
Okay, so it'll just go if I talk into it?
I think so.
No, it won't.
There's got to be a button somewhere.
I already did it earlier.
It's off?
The bottom?
No, now you turn the volume all the way down.
Let the games begin!
Worth it.
Totally worth it.
Worth it.
Totally worth it.
Why would they put a button that makes the batteries pop out?
That's some James Bond shit.
Like you're in a situation with a bullhorn.
You could just make the batteries pop out at somebody.
But yeah, it worked so good the first time I did it,
and now I'm terrible with it.
Because I thought most of them have kind of a trigger button or whatever.
But all right, I'm going to turn it off.
And let's see your name tags, everybody.
Because, lady and gentlemen,
it's time to pick who you're going to play for today.
From this dazzling array of name tags that I have to make a vine.
And while you guys decide who you're going to play for, we're going to go to a brief commercial message.

Back to the show.
All right, we're back.
Bree just came racing back to her seat.
Who are you playing for, Bree?
Twin Peaks take Fire Walk with Brie. It's another
Brie. Fire Walk with Brie.
What great timing.
Did the Brie
in the audience know that a Brie would be
on stage? Nope.
It's just my name.
Deal with it.
She spells it the
inaccurate way, but that's okay.
Just an I.
Oh, you're B-R-E, not I-E or E-E?
I'm just a B-R-I.
And you're just B-R-I?
Yeah.
You guys are both rebels.
Yeah.
And I saw that one on Twitter today, so good choice.
Alex, who are you playing for?
I'm playing for Trace Balls.
Yep.
Instead of Space Balls,
I have taken over the John Candy role.
She is Dark Helmet,
and Mel Brooks remains himself.
Can't replace Mel Brooks.
Yeah.
The Schwartz?
Is he in the Schwartz in that?
Is that his name?
Scroob.
President Scroob.
President Scroob.
But then they also say,
may the Schwartz be with you,
and it's hilarious.
I also, I saw that one on Twitter today and said, I'll be surprised if it doesn't get picked.
Because I knew I had a couple of Star Wars nerds on the panel.
But Jacob always goes Star Wars.
And I didn't, because nobody really brought up the Star Wars.
The one guy had a lightsaber with a VHS tape to the end of it.
I didn't think that was quite...
So you just picked a huge Steve Buscemi face.
Yeah, yeah.
I did.
If you didn't take that one, I was going to go with that one.
It looked...
It's a lot of Steve Buscemi for one sign.
And if I were you, every time the audience doesn't like something I say,
I just judge them with it.
I'm not sure if it's supposed to be a movie parody.
I'm assuming your name named Steve, right?
Yeah, his name's Steve.
But there's not a parody of a specific title, right?
No.
Just Steve.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, you picked it.
No, just because I like Steve Buscemi.
I felt scared not to, the way Steve was looking at me.
Yeah, it's an intense look.
I'm just going to leave that there.
Yeah, that's perfect.
I mean, I wish all name tags just stood up on their own
on the ground. It's like a science fair
project.
What would happen if Steve Buscemi stared
at you?
The effects of Steve Buscemi on plants.
Buscemi effect.
Alright, so
we're doing good on time.
I've got lots of games planned.
I've got a megaphone that works some of the time if I need it,
if I need to yell at anybody.
Remember, audience, usually the Portland crowds are great at this,
except for that one time I had to throw a guy out.
You know, the games are just between these guys on stage
until otherwise noted.
The first game we're going to play today is
Doug Loves Musicals!
Doug Loves Musicals!
Make way for musicals.
I'm going to name songs from a movie musical
and the first one of you to give me
the correct title, just yell it out
as soon as you think you know it.
Guess as many times as you want.
Yeah, that's all you need to know.
So we're just yelling it out.
Talk it into your microphone.
It's pretty much like yelling.
It's yelling for lazy people.
What movie musical has these songs in it?
Life Can Be So Nice.
Under the Cherry Moon.
That is the most ridiculous thing that's ever happened.
Under the Cherry Moon?
That is correct.
What?
Thank you.
That's for Prince.
Yeah, I tried to do it for Prince,
but I didn't think anybody would figure that out.
Yeah, that's a... Wow, that is the first...
Where are some other songs from it?
What's that?
What are the other songs you're going to do?
Well, there are other ones that are a little bit better clues.
Like, I thought that one was the most obscure song in it.
But you were just guessing because you just thought that I'd pick that movie today?
Well, I love that Prince album, so I just know it from the album.
Oh, the album.
See, that's what gives it away if you're into the album.
Because you know all these songs.
And Mountains, New Position, sometimes it snows in April,
Girls and Boys, Venus de Milo, Do You Lie,
you with just the letter U,
which is his standard move that he used a lot.
I Wonder You is another one.
And then that hit song Kiss was in that movie.
Another lover hole in your head. All one word.
Like this was,
he invented the hashtag.
And Christopher Tracy's Parade,
which the album
was called Parade.
Parade, yeah.
That the soundtrack was on,
strangely enough.
And then, yeah.
And then what I thought
would happen
is eventually I'd say
under the cherry moon
and you'd all scream
under the cherry moon.
But you figured it out Alex congratulations good job you
won that game okay I got another mashup for you which you know what I think I'm
just gonna call that game purple rain Yeah. Because it kind of explains what it is
and is a tribute to Prince and Rain Man.
Who we lost this year as well.
It's very sad.
Oh.
If I ever meet Rain Man,
I hope I have a handful of toothpicks with me.
Because I will test him.
with me.
Because I will test him.
Just meet Rain Man, you throw down five toothpicks. How many?
Okay, here's a new
purple Rain Man.
Prince
and Cher.
Under the Cherry Moonstruck.
Yeah.
All right, good job, Jacob.
But Alex gets to go first in this next game,
and then we'll go to Bree,
and it's called Whose Tagline Is It Anyway?
Yeah.
I will say a line from a uh classic motion picture and then you guys uh
individually i'll it's one at a time if someone can't think of it the next person gets a chance
and we'll start with you alex what movie has the tagline music is the power love is the message truth is the answer do it do
it there's no harm in just guessing right yeah no harm at all
unless it's incredibly stupid guess graffiti bridge That's correct, you idiot! I knew that.
I knew that.
The Prince movie.
Yeah.
That was my guess, too.
I think everyone in the room kind of saw that one.
Yeah, the unofficial sequel to
Purple Rain. Yeah, unofficial.
Whatever that means.
I thought Morris Day
and him were playing
the same characters
and everything,
but I gotta watch
that one again.
I hear it's terrible,
but I'm just in the mood
for it right now.
All right, Brie,
we'll start you off
with this next one.
What movie has the tagline
see it, hear it,
feel it, hear it, feel it,
love it.
One of the most demanding taglines.
Tommy.
Not since no shirt, no shoes.
What?
Tommy?
No, incorrect.
Jacob?
Can you say all the it's again?
See it, hear it, feel it, love it.
It'd be funny if the last part was love its,
and there was a movie that John Lovitz is in.
See it, hear it, feel it, Lovitz.
It's the tagline for Mom and Dad Save the World.
Do you have a guess?
I'm out of Prince movies, and it's not Batman.
But she did the soundtrack, too.
Thanks.
Yeah.
I was explaining my train of thought Golly
I'm gonna
You don't have to
You could just pass
Was it the prequel to
Look Who's Back
Saving Private Ryan
I can't believe you went with the prequel It wouldn't be a prequel Saving Private Ryan. What?
I can't believe you went with the prequel.
It wouldn't be a prequel.
Wait, so any war movie that happened before Look Who's Back is a prequel?
That was the joke I was going for.
I don't know if it holds up under scrutiny.
I would love it.
It's a musical.
I would love it if that was the tagline
for Saving Private Ryan.
No.
Love it. The beach at. No. Love it.
The beach at Normandy.
Love it.
All right, Bree,
do you have a guess?
You skipping Alex?
I don't think so.
Oh.
I mean, he got the answer right
last time, didn't he?
See here,
like pitch perfect.
Oh, that's not a terrible
one for that. Thank you. I aim not to be
terrible.
Jacob, you were in fact not
out of Prince movies in this
game because it's Under the Cherry Moon.
Oh, Jesus. Yeah, I tricked you.
Whoa. It's like the third
Under the Cherry Moon. I totally tricked you.
Seems like a strange tagline. I we did that, but I guess we...
The answer in another game.
Well played.
It might be the answer in every game we play.
If someone in this audience has the nerve
to suggest Prince for Last Man Stanton...
Okay, so we're going to start with you again, Jacob.
You ready?
Okay.
What?
Okay.
I'm ready.
So this is a new tagline.
It's about life.
It's about love.
Wait, you're right.
We should start with Alex.
That's what you were thinking?
Kind of, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Start with Alex.
But he's been doing so well.
Here we go, Alex.
I know.
I guess that's what I was trying to do
was just get the ball out of his side of the court.
But we've got to play fair.
Alex, it's about life.
It's about love.
It's about life. It's about love. It's about us.
Is the tagline for a major motion picture.
It's about life.
It's about love.
It's about us.
Uh-huh.
The Big Chill.
Oh.
I mean, there's hardly a movie that you could use this tagline for.
Bree, what do you think?
It seems like a kind of baby boomerang kind of self.
It's about love.
It's about life.
It's about us.
Man, like The Notebook?
No.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Notebook?
I got a Jacob.
Come on, Jacob.
I think I'm on the right track here.
I think so.
Look at what the Prince of Tides.
Oh, very good.
I like it.
Very nice try.
The actual answer for it's about life, it's about love, it's about us?
The color purple.
Back to Alex, who's leading with one point in this game,
even though it doesn't really matter.
It's the next game that's going to really decide things.
Alex?
Yes.
She's finally met the man of her dreams.
He's not real, but you can't have everything.
What movie?
She's finally met the man of her dreams.
He's not real,
but you
can't have everything.
I'm so close to it.
I'm so close to it. And just a period at the end,
like not a question mark or an exclamation
point. Just a very calm
you can't have everything.
He's asking the other
contestants if they know.
I just don't know if
it's so obvious and I'm dismissing it.
I don't think so.
Prince Charming. Prince Charming.
Prince Charming the movie?
I'm just taking a stab at somewhere out there
there's a movie called Prince Charming.
Finally.
We've got to take everything away from the women,
including movies about princesses.
Just make it about him.
That's not correct, but...
Brie, do you have a guess?
My guess is not correct.
The only thing I can think of is AI.
That's the only movie I can think of that has a robot boyfriend in it.
Jude Law, he's the robot boyfriend in the movie.
But I know that movie, his love is real, but he is not.
That's the tagline for that, AI. You can't have everything. Turns out he's a robot boyfriend in the movie. But I know that movie is, his love is real, but he is not. That's the tagline for that.
You can't have everything.
Turns out he's a robot.
Jacob, do you have a guess?
I do, but I can't connect it to Prince.
So it has me second guessing my guess.
Prince was in the color purple?
No, but the purple, no.
I'm going to go with Making Mr. Right.
Damn it.
Nope. It's the purple, no. I'm going to go with Making Mr. Right. Damn it. Nope.
It's the Purple Rose of Cairo.
You guys think you can handle one more?
Oh, now I get it.
Yeah, go ahead.
It was a 420 week.
It was like a long week.
I got it now, though.
Alex? Yes. You're first again. It was like a long week. I got it now, though. Alex.
Yes.
You're first again.
In all capital letters,
his peak of adventure.
His peak of adventure.
Yeah, that's the whole thing.
Not a terribly clever tagline.
His peak of adventure?
His peak, P-E-A-K.
Of adventure.
Yeah, not P-E-E-K.
He's not just taking a slight glimpse at adventure.
That's like Porky's.
He's going to the top of it.
The peak of adventure
The peak of adventure
Oh hey wait let me give it a little more drama
The peak of adventure
Sound like you're
Conducting this podcast from the 30s
With that thing
News on the march
Step right up and say some trivia.
It's this peak of adventure, and it will be yours as well. Get your ticket to the top.
I'm going to say The Purple King.
Oh, such a good guess.
No.
Brie?
The film The Little Prince.
I should have looked that one up.
That was...
That's a great one.
I should have done it.
The Little Prince and the Peak of Adventure.
I was just sitting around going,
they didn't make a Fresh Prince of Bel-Air movie.
But somewhere, somebody put together
like clips or pictures of Prince, and a Fresh Prince clip got in the mix, and people were outraged.
I mean, it is pretty obnoxious, but he was Fresh Prince.
Jacob?
As long as it wasn't Prince William, I'm not upset.
Right?
Yeah.
That would be really weird if he showed up in a montage of Prince William. I'm not upset. Right? Yeah. That would be really weird if he showed up
in a montage
of Prince things.
Jacob?
Yeah, I'm ready.
Oh, you got an answer?
I got a guess.
Let's hear it.
Prince of Persia?
Oh, that's not bad.
Not a bad guess,
but no,
that's not the answer.
This one was just stupid.
This one was like
the only other movie
I could find with purple in the title.
It was a movie from 1954.
And it's called The Purple Plane.
The Purple Plane.
And the peak of adventure.
P-L-A-N-E or I-A-I-N?
What?
Is it P-L-A-I-N or P-L-A-N-E?
Oh, come on. P-L-A-I-N. What? Is it P-L-A-I-N or P-L-A-N-E? Oh, come on.
P-L-A-I-N.
Okay.
Like the movie was just about a field?
Purple, planes, and majesties.
The 50s.
They didn't have a lot of stuff to make movies about back then.
So just to farm.
I'm still trying to think of another Purple Rain Man
that I could throw at you guys.
I gotta come up with a good one.
Alright, I'll do it later.
Let's play some Last Man Stanton, you guys.
Alex is the official winner of that last game.
If we could say
that somebody won that game,
because he did get one right there.
So he gets to go first in this
next game, and then we'll go to
we'll switch the order around from where we were going,
go Jacob, then Bree.
And we're going to take a name from the audience
and play Last Man Stanton with that name.
I play along.
And if you can't think of one, you're out.
But you can use your
one lifeline each round.
With each name we
get, you get one lifeline. And your lifeline
is Steve
or Trace Balls.
Or
Twin Peaks Firewalk
with Bree.
That should be so easy
to remember that Brie is playing
for Brie. Is there anybody
named Alex here with a name tag?
We should all play for someone. Yeah, swap
out with his.
Do we have any other Steves?
I mean, any Jacobs?
Steve's fine.
I'm just kidding around.
It looks like Steve,
it looks like all of them have really long
shitheads on the back, so I'm excited
about that.
So we're going to get a name from an audience member
and we're going to play to two points.
You have to win two rounds to win today.
And the
second round that we play, because we'll have to play at least two rounds to win today. And the second round
that we play, because we'll
have to play at least two rounds,
whoever drops out first
in the first round gets to
pick any actor or actress they want
for the next round.
And I did a show recently
where someone was very strategic
and picked a name
that everyone on the
panel knew plenty of movies by that person I did I say strategic I meant it
wasn't didn't make the right play just putting that out there I won't berate
you if you don't do what I want you to do and where is at Made
in Oregon 2.
Made in Oregon II.
Are you here? Right here.
It's an 11.
It's an 11?
Made in Oregon
11. Oh yeah, that makes sense.
Because you were
probably born
four or five years ago.
Or you just now turned 11.
Or you were 11 when you got your Twitter account.
Why are you called Made in Oregon 11?
My birthday is on the 11th.
Your birthday is the 11th.
Okay.
Cancer.
Cool.
Of May?
Of December.
Of December.
Okay.
All right.
Of May?
Of December. Of December, okay.
All right.
You wrote to me on Twitter
saying that you had a terrific name
for a round of Last Man's Den.
Let's hear it.
Nicole Kidman.
I don't know if we've played her before,
but it feels like we haven't,
and that's a really good one.
So I'm very proud of you.
So proud of Maiden Oregon, aye, aye.
Which you will always be known as to me.
Okay, so we start with Alex.
Yes.
And then Jacob, then me, and then Bree.
Just name any movie featuring the great Nicole Kidman.
Whenever I'm ready.
Yeah, whenever you're ready.
Eyes wide shut.
And, yeah, and I will say,
I mean, that cut down on her
biography considerably, because that movie
took four or five fucking years to make.
But, Jacob,
I will remind you before you have your turn
that you can use your
lifeline early
if you want.
Is it my turn? I'm after? I'm next?
Yeah, you're next. No, I'm going to steal the one that I know Brie has in mind,
and I'm going to say Batman Forever.
Oh, aren't you a dastardly dude?
I don't know if she had that one ready to go.
Well, Val Kilmer's her favorite Batman.
I know, but...
That's not really true.
It's just something I say to stir up nerds.
They're really difficult to rile.
Just something audacious.
Oh, I love those Star Trek movies, The Phantom Menace.
Those are great.
Right.
And then watch the nerd rage build.
Yeah, I wouldn't do that.
Graphic novels and comic books, are those different?
That's the same.
Sorry, buddy. Well, actually.
Nailed it.
Okay, I'm going to go with
Paddington.
Paddington.
I'm going to say Stepford Wives.
You're correct not to applaud.
Yeah, that one didn't work out so good.
Bewitched.
Yes, Bewitched.
How about To Die For?
Such a good movie.
To Die For.
Oh, okay.
What did you say before To Die For?
How about To Die For?
Oh, how about.
How about it, guys?
It's a weird title.
How About To Die For.
Man, that scene where she's like in that dress
dancing around in the middle of the road in front of the car.
Yeah, that's right. Holy shit.
Joaquin Phoenix is like 11.
Yeah, he's made Oregon 11.
Shout out.
Because that movie took place here or Washington?
Florida.
Florida?
Yeah.
Everything like that.
All the teacher...
Oh, no.
Teachers...
Was it Florida?
Some famous Northwest teacher fucking also, I guess.
Yeah.
They could teacher fuck here. Yeah. All I know. That's Washington. They could teach a fuck here.
Yeah.
All I know is they didn't do it where I went to school.
That's all I...
I was none too happy about it.
All right.
I'm going to say The Hours.
The Hours.
I'm going to say Moulin Rouge.
I'm going to say Moulin Rouge. I'm going to say
The Golden Compass.
Is that like the full title
of that thing?
Was that the first in a series?
Did they want to make a series of those?
They did and it didn't happen.
Oh, they wanted to but the first one just didn't fly so they gave up?
Yeah.
Okay, so there's no subtitle or anything, just Golden Compass.
That's all I know, anyway.
Okay.
If there was one, that's lost to you.
That sounds right, The Golden Krampus.
Great books, though.
You should all read those books.
I'm going to go with Days of Thunder.
Oh, going way back.
In that case, since we're going back to when she had all that big red curly hair,
I'm going to say dead calm.
Someone in the audience repeat it.
Dead calm.
Breed, you got another one?
Is it hot up here, you guys?
Is it hot up here or is it just Nicole Kidman?
Oof.
Can I tell a quick story while you're thinking?
Please, please.
One time I got tipped off that Nicole Kidman and Sean Penn
and who else was there?
As long as I'm name dropping.
Catherine Keener. There's just a bunch of cool actors
like in this bar in New York and I knew where they were
and it was a small kind of empty bar
and me and a buddy went there
and we ran into Sean Penn out on the sidewalk
and
got to talking with Sean Penn
and I said
I was in a play in town called The Marijuana Logs
and Sean Penn says to me that sounds like a Woody Harrelson production it was an
affectionate joke he wasn't slamming Woody I don't think I think they're
buddies but then I went inside and I didn't like sit directly with them but I
sat kind of near them because I had just met Sean Penn and he was friendly so I
was kind of near them and then Sean Penn met Sean Penn and he was friendly, so I was kind of near them.
And then Sean Penn and Nicole Kidman both
lit napkins on fire and ate them.
Like as a goddamn parlor, like
bar trick. Like, hey, let's do this.
They'd light it on fire and then just eat the
fiery napkin.
Sounds to die for, actually.
Alright, did you think of one, Bree?
I was thinking of, I'm not sure
if rabbit-proof fence?
Oh, yeah. All right.
Yeah, that's it. Stand alive. Good job.
All right, I'm on fumes here.
Was she in a movie called
Australia?
Yeah.
Dang.
It almost seems like it should have been a joke.
Was she ever in a continent called...
Jacob?
She was absolutely in a movie called Far and Away.
Yeah.
Of course.
That's right.
She was also in a motion picture called Happy Feet.
What?
Somebody out there says?
I'm going to go to my lifeline.
Oh, I forgot we had lifelines.
Bree, what you got, girl?
What?
Practical magic.
Practical magic. Practical magic.
The best magic of them all.
My faves.
Thanks, girl.
I was talking to a woman recently
who confused that movie with Hocus Pocus.
After telling me,
the reason I figured out she was confused
is she told me Hocus Pocus
is one of the best movies she's ever seen.
And then when we went further into it, it turns out she was talking about practical magic. I would for sure put Hocus Pocus of the best movies she's ever seen. And then when we went further into it,
it turns out she was talking about practical magic.
I would for sure put Hocus Pocus above practical magic, though.
I'd put them both far and away.
Well, you've inspired me.
I'm a trace balls.
Uh-oh, that didn't sound good.
Do you have one?
Do you have something, Trace Balls?
Can you help out Alex?
I can tell him that in the movie Far and Away.
Whoa.
She's going to give him clues?
No.
No.
I don't have an answer, but I have a good anecdote.
You're going to give us an anecdote?
Why?
Why?
Why?
I'll allow it.
Wow.
She's really giving it to us.
Now you're talking about a specific scene in Far and Away?
I don't remember the bowl lifting scene.
I mean, I lifted many bowls to get through that movie.
That was worth it for setting you up for that joke, I think. That was pretty solid.
But does everybody want her to finish this anecdote?
No!
Not shy at all
about what they don't want to hear.
What?
Okay, you're good.
Oh, she thought of one.
Cold Mountain.
Cold Mountain.
Got another round.
I don't need...
Steve, you got some?
I don't need it quite yet, but I'm getting there.
He says he's got some.
Hopefully we won't say the one he's got.
I'm going with the others.
Yeah.
I'm definitely fuming.
But I think I might be able to pull out another one.
What was the...
Fuck.
This is so funny that I am blanking on the name of the movie
they were probably shooting when I watched them eat napkins that were on fire.
The fuck was that movie called?
Shit.
I'm going to give up. I'm going to give up.
I'm going to throw in the towel.
Yeah.
That was so controversial.
Bree, do you have another one?
I'm going to take a stab and say Rango.
Are there issues of voice in Rango?
Rango, do we?
I don't think so.
Does anyone support that?
I don't support it. Do you support
me? Okay, great.
Thank you.
Trying so hard. Alright, so you're
first one out, so that means you get to pick the
next name, so think about it.
And Alex, what do you got?
Going clear.
What?
Interesting. I'm going to take it for creativity. Yes. Going Clear. What?
Interesting.
I'm going to take it for creativity.
Yes.
Because you do see her briefly in it, right?
Yeah, sure.
She doesn't talk.
Do you actually see her?
I don't know if you see her. Yeah, you definitely see her, Jacob.
You definitely see her.
It's all over that place.
I think there's a chance you might not see her in it,
but I don't remember specifically,
so I'm going to let you have it.
Because that's just too clever
to name the Scientology doc.
I got one, but I want to...
Jacob's going to the lifeline.
I'm not sure on the exact time.
I want to hear what Steve's...
To be clear, do I have to use Steve's?
You can discard Steve's if you think it's wrong.
But usually we know if it's right or wrong
because the audience goes crazy when they say it.
Okay, Steve, what do you got?
Listen to that quiet audience.
So, Jacob, you have to decide
if flirting is a movie that has...
That has Nicole Kidman in it?
This could be people that just hate the prequels, though.
I don't know that they're really trying to help me.
I mean, I think there's a good chance
that that's happening.
You guys really, you back that up?
Can I ask them?
No, there's some people that back it up.
There was Quiet in the Room, though,
because it's not a very well-known movie.
I'm going to take a chance, because I have one,
but I'm going to take a chance to go with flirting.
Flirting is correct.
Yeah, it's like a
saucy little boarding
school girl, I think, in it.
I think.
It's hard to
concentrate on what's happening, because I watch it with my
pants off.
Back to you, Alex.
I'm going to say
Flintstones Viva Rock Vegas.
Whoa!
You son of a bitch.
Now here's where it gets tricky
because I know this movie she's in for sure and I hope
I get the title right.
I want to say it's even maybe her first movie.
But it's called...
BMX?
Yes!
What?
But it's, I don't know, tell me, do I need to complete that?
But it's, I don't know, tell me, do I need to complete that?
The most exciting response BMX has ever had?
The sport and the movie?
Yeah, that was, they erupted.
But I'm still gonna, I'm gonna go to the judges, which is in my phone.
Because I'm just curious about this movie in general now.
Yeah, that's why I'm looking it up. Thank you.
Thanks for your help.
But I can usually get a chance at the full title.
Yeah, yeah. I mean, I would say, what's the
full title, but everybody just give me a
second to find it, and then we'll
do that.
Oh, shit.
Alright. So, shit. All right.
So, yeah.
It's one of two things.
Nicole Kidman is in a movie that has those three letters in it.
And it might have more.
What's the full title?
Or do you want to just stick with BMX as the full title?
Are you not telling me if I need to do that or not?
If I need to add more?
Don't you usually say...
I'd say I need the full title, but I could just be fucking with you and it might just be BMX.
I'm judging by...
That guy seemed to know.
That guy knew his Nicole Kidman bicycle movies.
I think it's called the BMX movie.
No, I'm sorry.
BMX the movie? No, I'm still
sorry. BMX.
Phantom Menace.
I would have known that. It's called
BMX Bandits.
Fuck.
Yeah, yeah, but that was a good round
you guys. We did pretty good
Now is the part where you guys say what we missed
The interpreter was with Sean Penn, right?
Birthday girl
Birthday girl
The peacemaker, yeah
With Clooney, with George Clooney
Birth
They're saying birth
Birth
Birth I feel fine not knowing anything birth birth birth birth
I feel fine
not knowing
any of these movies
Lee Daniels
the paper boy
so was it called
Rad the movie
was he putting his name
on movies at that point
I think it was
Rad the movie then
sorry
it was Rad and BMX
I always mix those ones
yeah it's hard to keep
those straight
but that's amazing
that Nicole Kidman
is in a movie called
BMX Bandits
she must have been
deep into Scientology when she made that one I think it's her first movie those straight, but that's amazing that Nicole Kidman is in a movie called BMX Bandit. She must have been deep into Scientology
when she made that one.
Oh, I think it's her first movie.
It was before she met Tom, I think.
It was when she was desperate.
That's what drove her to Scientology.
And didn't have him to cling to.
All right, so that means that Alex lasted the longest,
so he's got one point.
Well done.
We're playing to two points, Brie gets to pick the next
name. Any name you want, Brie, you will go first and then
which way were we going before? We'll switch it up and go to
me and then Jacob and then Alex. Well, I think I'm just going to
have fun with it and say John Candy. That is a fun one.
Right?
Have fun with it and say John Candy.
That is a fun one.
Right?
Who doesn't love him?
Start us off, Bree, any John Candy movie.
Uncle Buck.
Yeah.
Somebody made a noise like they were Uncle Buck.
I'm going to say The Great Outdoors.
I've done John Candy on the show and I still don't feel confident here.
I'm going to say Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.
I'm a stripes head.
I've got to go stripes.
I'm going to say Home Alone.
Oh, you did it.
Damn you.
I'm going to go Armed and Dangerous.
I'm going to go with Traceballs.
I mean Spaceballs.
Yeah.
Why didn't Alex say that when he's holding it in his hand?
Wagons East.
Whoa.
Canadian Bacon.
Orange Whip.
Orange Root.
Three Orange Whips.
The Blues Brothers.
Little Shop of Horrors.
That's right JFK
Always a great one when you
Not sure
Delirious
Delirious
Only the Lonely.
Oh, yeah.
Who's Harry Crumb?
This is a really deep cut one.
John Candy did a voice in the movie Heavy Metal.
Yeah, he did. you're gonna let i'm out i know i oh my i can use my lifeline yeah you got some girl
say it one more time she's's saying Rescuers Down Under.
Another person in the audience is saying yes.
The Rescuers Down Under.
Yeah, I'm not even going to sweat you on whether it's the or not.
I'm not going to sweat you on the title. It's Rescuers Down Under.
Rescuers Down Under, I think, sounds good enough to me.
Yeah?
Yours, yeah.
Good one, good one.
What really sold it for me was the mentioning of what he was the voice of.
Because I couldn't tell you for sure
if he was in it, but that sounded very...
It was an albatross.
Yeah.
She called it a seagull?
Super close, Bree.
It was an Australian seagull.
Sounds like I have an inner monologue myself.
So it's me now?
Yeah.
I'm going to go with...
Yeah.
Yeah, right?
Yeah.
That's the way we're going?
I'm going to go with the movie where he had the immortal line.
Parks closed, folks.
Moose outside should have told you.
Vacation had to get away.
A National Lampoon vacation.
You bastards.
Steve, what do you got?
Oh, Steve. We're going to Steve.
What?
Summer rental, of course. Summer rental.
Going berserk?
Is that one?
Yep. Okay.
I remember.
He totally went berserk
in that movie.
Hoosiers?
Okay, so Brie is out.
Sorry.
But you can think about,
you know,
another name
for the next,
the next round,
if there is a next round.
And I'm going to say...
This is getting tricky.
I feel like he showed up in that black and white movie,
Nothing Lasts Forever.
No, I'm going to go Nothing But Trouble.
God damn it, that was mine.
Fuck.
It's Jacob's turn.
But you can go if you want.
But that wasn't the only one you had,
was it? No, that was the one I had.
That was the one I had. I have some guesses about
just Canadian shit.
Steve already helped you out, right?
Steve helped me out already, yeah.
Got anything?
Not that much.
Did he...
I don't know this.
Did he have a small part in Strange Brew?
Did he have anything to do in that movie?
He might have, but I don't specifically recall that
and no one else seems to think so.
Somebody said yes.
One guy says yes.
For sure he was in it?
You're really sure he's in it?
Yes.
That sounds as convincing as the Rescuers Down Under to me.
Does he play a seagull?
How could he not be in it?
What does he do in...
Sure, he used to be in SCTV,
but that doesn't mean he's in every movie they did.
Of course, Strange Brew came from SCTV,
but not every cast member for SCTV is in Strange Brew.
Yeah, so what did he play?
What did he do in Strange Brew?
Don't make me use my megaphone.
What?
You got it, he's in it?
He's not in it, dude.
Hey, dude!
I'm not sure he's not.
I'm gonna look it up.
IMDB says he's not in it.
You're looking at the movie or at his page?
I'm in.
No, they're not. He's taking charge of this. B says he's not in it. You're looking at the movie or at his page?
He's taking charge of this.
What's that?
You're going to ask the internet?
Dear internet.
Do you have a different internet than what those people are using?
Because
they already asked.
I could not have had a cameo in that.
He could have easily not had a cameo in that. He could have easily not had a cameo in that.
He could have been not in the same country
at the time they were shooting it.
Or not friendly with those.
I don't know how close those guys were.
What?
He's in it.
He's in it.
Now he's holding up his phone.
What's your...
What is he playing in it?
Sheriff Bud Boomer. There you go. I knew it. Bud Boomer play in it? Sheriff Bud Boomer Sheriff Bud Boomer
There you go
I knew it
Bud Boomer
There you go
Bud Boomer
What does this guy have
Against the prequels?
It's just interesting though
That the
Like the more people
In the room
Weren't joining in
To fight that battle
Like it really felt
Like you were sketchy dude
I feel like we should do this with the rest of yours down under.
But maybe that's the thing, is like,
applaud if you've ever seen Strange Brew.
Why did you not remember if Candy was in it or not?
It was a while ago, you're right about that.
It was quite a while ago.
All right, so where are we at?
What's happening?
I was going to try the Strange Brew Hail Mary, too.
That's a really good Hail Mary.
But I'm going to go with Trace Balls again.
Trace Balls, you got something?
Splash!
Son of a bitch!
How hard do we miss that one?
Splash.
Oh my god, that's great.
We always overlook some of the most obvious
fucking ones.
And I'm blanking now
at this point.
And I don't want to drag things out too long.
I was going to say that Alex will win, but what do you care?
Only I care if Alex wins.
Yeah, it doesn't matter what happens with me.
Alex is still the winner if you don't come up with something, Jacob.
I've thought of something.
Wait.
I'm out.
She's going to steal.
But I could give it to Jacob.
Wait, whose turn is it?
It's your turn.
I am out, I said. Oh, you did. I know you officially to Jacob. Wait, whose turn is it? It's your turn. I'm out, I said.
Oh, you did.
That's what I was trying to convey.
Is that I'm leaving it to you two.
I'm stalling here, Doug.
Because you just have to come up with one.
I know.
And then Alex would have to come up with one more.
I do?
If he does, yeah.
Oh, if he does.
Okay.
Just anyway.
It doesn't feel like he's going to think of one.
No, I'm going to think of a Canadian Hail Mary here. Another anyway. It doesn't feel like he's going to think of one. No, I'm going to do another.
I'm going to think of a Canadian Hail Mary here.
Another one.
Oh, okay.
Everybody but this guy, get your phones out.
Get ready.
They are saying he's not in whatever you're thinking.
You know he's had
some cameos
and some other.
I've said too much.
Yeah, a lot of cameos.
Another Hail Mary.
Did he have a cameo
and say Dr. Detroit?
Oh.
Oh, shit.
I think that's a no.
Well.
But, you know,
I was going to go
Muppet movie.
Or one of the Muppet, one of the Muppet ones.
Muppets take Manhattan, you know, another one of those things.
Are you guessing right now?
No, he said already.
He said his choice.
We haven't decided I was wrong yet.
Yeah.
Somebody with, who are the people with the good internet in here?
Who are the internet that likes me?
I got it.
I think you're completely wrong.
I think he's absolutely not in that.
And also, no one else is saying he's in it.
I don't think most people haven't heard of the movie.
Well, yeah.
I mean, I thought most people shouldn't have heard of whatever that last one was we were arguing about.
And they all clapped when I said, have you seen it?
Strange proof.
And then they said they don't remember him in it.
So that's where we're at, Jacob,
is that that answer is incorrect.
And Alex, did you have another one just for fun?
I was just going to take a stab
with one of those Muppet movies,
but I'm hoping for a cameo,
but that would have spent another 15 minutes
on the internet then,
so it's probably for the best.
It's for the best.
In his top four on IMDb,
the very first thing is the aforementioned SCTV,
then Spaceballs, Planes, Trains, and Uncle Buck,
Canadian Bacon, Wagons East.
We did a pretty good job, but what did we miss, you guys?
Cool runnings we missed.
What the fuck?
Cool fucking runnings.
I'll never forgive myself.
Rookie of the year.
Also, I remember The Rescuers, the first one.
That's a good one.
He was in that.
Coyote Ugly?
No, John Goodman.
I don't think John Coyote was in Raising Arizona.
That was John Goodman.
John Goodman.
You fattest.
Yeah.
I know, I was kind of going through like,
nope, Chris Farley.
Like, I was going through my fat guy Rolodex of movies
and
oh he had a brief part in She's Having a Baby
he was in he was the voice of the horse
in Hot to Trot with Bobcat Goldquain
yeah
Brewster's Millions
with Richard Pryor
and
yeah what was the movie in the mansion
where they go to that crazy mansion?
Nothing But Trouble.
I got that.
Oh, he's speaking to Muppets.
He's in Follow That Bird.
Oh, close.
He's in a Sesame Street movie.
Volunteers with Tom Hanks.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
It's fun how hard this game is.
And Splash and Going Berserk were the very early.
Those were his first National Olympics vacation stripes
Yeah, other than that I think we
We cleaned it out
Lost and Found
Whatever that is
Oh, 1941, he's in 1941
I should have thought of that
Yeah
A lot of work from that guy
Passed away
12 years ago now.
Yeah.
All right, so that means Alex is our winner!
The listeners of this podcast are going to be grateful
that this went back in the prize bag.
I didn't just keep it and use it all the time.
Congratulations, Alex. Excellent job.
Let's get
your prize bag delivered to
Trace Balls. Come get
the prizes.
She doesn't have a shithead on her...
It doesn't matter if there's a shithead.
She won the prizes. That's the kind of
positive energy that makes it happen.
There you go.
Sure, give Alex a hug.
Thanks, honey.
Wow.
Best day of his life.
Do you want to tell that story about the bowl?
Do you want to tell the story about the bowl?
Well, yeah.
It was supposed to be the first time that Nicole Kidman actually saw Tom Cruise's penis.
That he was supposed to cover it up with a rag for modesty.
But in the scene, she's supposed to peek under and be shocked.
And the people that were shooting the scene convinced him to remove the rag.
So when she peeked under the bowl, there was Tom Cruise's junk.
All right.
Totally worth it.
Totally worth it.
The old dick bowl trick.
Well, thank you, Trace Balls, and congratulations to you.
And pass your name tag down to me, Bree,
and tell us what you got to plug.
Oh, wow.
Promote yourself.

Oh.
Oh.
Ooh.
Saget.
Saget.
He's a nice fella.
You're gonna have fun with him.
Yeah.
You know,
he'll let you in the green room
every once in a while,
but he usually likes his privacy. Alex. I'm just joking. I don't know what he'll let you in the green room every once in a while, but he usually likes his privacy.
Alex!
I'm just joking, I don't know what he likes.
Alex, what have you got to promote?
I'm a cartoonist, you can check out my comics
at comicbookalex.com,
and I'm also the co-host of a podcast about Star Wars
called Star Wars Minute,
which you can see at starwarsminute.com.
Yeah, for those of you just joining us,
in case you missed earlier,
he's with the Star Wars Minute.
What's that?
Okay, he's immediately retracted.
I think you said awesome.
Awesome?
I think.
Awesome!
It's very clipped.
It's the heckle
that stopped immediately.
I got a flashback
when Alex,
because he was like,
comic book Alex, it sounds like listening to Star Wars Minute, you kind of have the specific cadence that stopped immediately. I got a flashback when Alec, because he was like, comic book Alec.
It sounds like listening to Star Wars.
You kind of have the specific cadence that you pronounce.
I say it every day on the show.
All right, Jake, I'm going to give you two choices.
You can tell us about some of your upcoming gigs
or tell the dick bowl story again.
I can tell the dick bowl story?
You can tell it if you want.
Unless if you got gigs coming up, you want people to come too.
Yeah, I'd rather do the gigs. I mean, I want to do the dick bowl story. Whatever you're going if you want unless if you got gigs coming up you want people to come too. Yeah, yeah, no. I'd rather do the gigs
if that's what it is.
Okay, what do you got?
I mean I want to do
the Dick Bull story.
Whatever you're going to do
you got 30 seconds, go.
