Hey you guys, today's episode is brought to you in part by IFC Films, Amazon Studios, and Wiener Dog,
the new film from the director of Welcome to the Dollhouse and Happiness.
Greta Gerwig, Danny DeVito, Ellen Burstyn, Julie Delpy, and Josha Mamet star in the story about a wayward adventure
of an adorable dachshund who passes from oddball owner to oddball owner,
including the world's worst mom, a down-on-his-luck screenwriter, and the grown-up incarnation
of Welcome to the Dollhouse's Don Wiener, whose dysfunctional lives are all impacted
by the adorably stoic pooch.
Wiener Dog is in select theaters now.
Enjoy the show!
Wiener Dog is in select theaters now.

Doug hates candy wrappers,
screaming babies, sticky seats with 50 acid pop or kernels in his teeth.
There's still not one that he won't see.
The Doug Pops Movies.
Hey, hey, hey, everybody.
My name is Doug, and I love movies.
This is Doug Loves Movies.
Did you guys hear when I was in Utah the other day and I said I love Mormons?
Even they couldn't sing that without, you know,
losing the song.
They were like,
Doug loves Mormons?
What?

You put your name over
the name when you didn't have to change anything.
Okay.
Alright, I can live with that.
I can live with that decision.
Lauren Stewart
has a Lauren from Price
is Right on
her sign, so that means you're
visiting from out of town and you tried
your hand at Price is Right?
No, I live here. You live here and you tried your hand
at Price is Right.
You went and lined up and they gave you the thing
and you wore it and did you get to the
onto the stage?
I was the second to last person called so I got a weird hug
from the guy who won. That's about it.
You got a weird hug from the guy who won?
Yeah.
Well, there's lots of good ones.
I appreciate you guys bringing those
and hopefully
three of you will get chosen.
It could be a weird episode if somebody just
refused to pick a name tag.
I don't think that's ever happened.
I hope it doesn't tonight.
Doug Bluggs, Tampa Flo Rida.
I'm doing stand-up this Saturday at 420

DougLovesMovies.com for Mo Info.
From the corrections department,
the correct full title is
High School Musical 3, colon, Senior Year.
Apologies to everyone at that mistake.
Everyone whose lives were changed by that,
by that error.
The prize bag,
we said High School Musical 3
on two different episodes
without ever saying senior year,
so people were,
well, this one person was
losing their shit.
We got a pipe from the good people at Peacemaker
that sent me way too many.
I'll get rid of all of them eventually.
A shirt from, what is this shirt?
I have a guess, but I want to make sure I get it right.
Yep.
This is from Irv's Pub, a delightful restaurant and bar in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
I was just there recently
and instead of giving me free drinks, they thought
I'd like a shirt.
Speaking of shirts,
my friends at, my
friend, my singular friend, Gabe
the Magician from Getting Doug with High
is here tonight,
as always always and contributed
to the prize bag a t-shirt that says why can't we all just get a bong classic
quote and and it's a green shirt and and and we he also has a honey pen if you want to sample one after the show.
Honey pen. Honey farm pen.
And from my personal VHS collection,
an episode of Gilmore Girls entitled Love and War and Snow.
So this one takes place in wintertime
out at Stars Hollow.
And an episode, it just says Buffy,
but I'm pretty sure it's Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
And this particular episode is called Witch.
Yeah, W-H-I-C-H.
No, I'm kidding.
It's spelled regular witch.
Let's get my guests out here.
This is a good one, you guys.
Please welcome Rob Corddry, Tony Thaxton, and Greg Fitzsimmons. Greg forgot his prizes.
That's funny Rob Corddry should say that.
Because if you'll notice, he also has a vinyl comedy LP.
Has he ever done it?
Vinyl comedy LP?
That's a vinyl comedy LP, sure.
And I just happen to have had two in the trunk of my car.
Yeah.
Wait, I'm already fascinated by this dynamic.
Greg Fitzsimmons walks up to us outside in the back before the show,
sans glasses.
Now you put some on.
And Rob Corddry
walked up with glasses on.
Now he has them off.
Are you guys like,
only one of us
can be a glasses guy?
I'm gonna have them on soon.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
I look forward to that.
By the way,
I'm Rob Corddry.
He's Greg Fitzsimmons.
Don't do that
to the listeners, Greg.
Sorry. Don't confuse them out of the gate. He's Greg Fitzsimmons. Don't do that to the listeners, Greg. Sorry.
Don't confuse them out of the gate.
It's already four white dudes talking.
And let's meet them individually.
Let's enjoy the whiteness together,
starting with my friend Tony Thaxton is here, everybody.
Hello.
And now I'm boxed in to having to say my friend in every intro
because that would be insulting to be like,
and Greg is here!
But Tony is, of course, a regular on this program
and one of the few musicians we allow to be on
because he actually knows his movies
and he has his own podcast,
which is quite a delightful treat to be on,
called Feliz NaviPod, where it's Christmas in every episode.
Yep, all year long.
Yeah, and he's also the drummer of the acclaimed
and now soon no longer band called Motion City Soundtrack.
And, yes, they are on their farewell tour this summer,
and I already caught one of the dates, and I plan to catch two more.
Nice.
At least.
Yes.
Maybe three if I decide to go to Australia.
Which, by the way, I didn't know if you were serious about that.
You told me you were thinking about Australia.
I am fucking serious, dude.
Let me, let me, we, I told the guys in the band, because you said Australia, maybe Japan.
Yeah, even Japan, too.
Which I highly recommend Japan
over Australia. Of course you do. And... They're both
great, right? That should be your
next movie. You coming to Japan and
doing some comedy,
opening our shows. Oh, no.
How terrible would that be? That's not a good idea.
Right? I know. Exactly.
It's such a bad idea, it's a good idea.
Alright, well, my closing line would be
thank you for being so polite.
I now enjoy music, which doesn't matter which language it's in.
Comedy, you got to understand the language, I think.
But do a lot of people in Japan speak English?
Is that a huge thing over there?
Yeah, they at least speak a little bit.
And they try so hard.
But enough to get comedy?
No. My comedy? no
my comedy?
exactly
that's why I want to see this
somebody just told me last night
that Gallagher
you know Gallagher
sure
he decided that
since America was getting
so Spanish
he should do his act
in Spanish
so he learned phonetically
he doesn't speak Spanish
but he learned all the jokes
in Spanish
yes
and then he would smash the fruit
and then talk in Spanish
and nobody laughed.
Right, because that's probably
the main thing
you kind of have to get across
in stand-up comedy
is just that you know
what you're saying.
You know what I mean?
You know what I mean?
You just can't, like, fake it.
Like, you've got to be a real,
it's got to be genuine.
It's really subtle.
Comedy's very subtle.
You think at least, especially the watermelon part, we're going to laugh.
But then again, the whole bit is a parody of Ron Popeil ads of things that do lots of things.
Which those ads aren't even a thing there.
That's right.
So they don't even have that jumping off point.
They've already gone big.
I don't know if you've seen Latino TV. You can't go much bigger
than like the clown
with the big red nose
that comes out
and slaps a chicken.
He should do the whole act
in that bee costume
that one guy wears.
He seems to be
the most popular
humorous figure
in Mexico
as a guy in a bee costume.
Tony, what else
do we want to talk about with you? So you're in the middle of the farewell tour. There's a bee costume. Tony, what else do we want to talk about with you?
So you're in the middle of the
farewell tour. There's a little break. You came home.
Yeah, I got home last night. Home for a month.
And then there's some
East Coast and Midwest
dates in August. And then we go to the UK.
And then we're doing Riot Fests
in Denver and
sorry, Denver and Chicago.
That's the final show ever is a Chicago Riot Fest,
but then we're also doing Australia and Japan
between those two Riot Shows.
The Riot Fest shows are super fun,
and I'm going to try to come see you in Denver,
and I'm also going to see you in Buffalo.
Yes.
That's my plan.
By the way, you came to the Anaheim show,
but I never...
There was no evidence.
No, I spotted you toward the end of the set.
I happened to look up in the balcony and I see Doug like kind of leaning on the rail sitting there.
And there was kind of a sing along moment where they kind of shine the lights on the audience.
And I just happened to look up and see you and you're just like this.
Yeah.
For the listeners, I close my eyes,
because I don't like bright lights in my face,
which is really a shame for my stand-up career.
I just decided that I'm going to go to every show that Doug Benson goes to.
I have a good time.
They also gave me an insanely good seat at that show
because the House of Blues in Anaheim has a lovely...
Well, if I'm with you, they'll give me all the great seats too.
They have a great VIP section there that's up in the balcony,
like you said, and you're on the rail.
And I open my eyes. I keep my eyes open.
You know how most rock shows,
you've got to go forage for drinks and foods,
but that show, there was a lady who came
and sold me
some vodka sodas and a
corndog.
I'm with you, Doug
Benson.
Well, we might as well, Greg, hang on a second.
I might as well introduce him, because he's
very involved at this point.
Has a lot to
say. It's Rob Corddry, everybody!
Sorry, Greg.
Back on the show
after a two and a half year absence.
It's been so long.
I don't even know
if that figure is accurate.
I made it up,
but you've been on the show before
and I love having you here.
Hilarious dude.
When's the next season
of Children's Hospital start?
Never.
Yeah, it's over.
It's over.
It's true.
I thought he'd say,
you know, he'd say,
Doug, don't you know it's over?
But he didn't answer that way.
Never.
It's not because I was setting you up
for my version of a joke.
Just to pretend that it's going on continuously.
Now everybody hates me.
How many seasons did you do?
Seven?
Seven.
Wow.
That's enough, right?
That's plenty.
It's plenty.
And then we went out on top.
Yeah, it's a perfect thing that people can go back and watch all of it.
It doesn't lose its edge or sense of fun.
There's a lot of dancing.
Yeah.
In a lot of the episodes.
Every episode has dancing.
Yeah.
I love it.
Yeah.
So what's your new thing?
What do you got going on?
I don't know.
What do you got?
Let's do it.
You've been...
I feel like there's a lot of farewells going on.
What do you got?
You were busy.
You sent me a message saying you were busy until
yesterday, so that's when I suggested this
date, and you were like, I'm in.
So what ended yesterday?
I was traveling.
We went to New York.
Actually,
we went to Vermont to drop my
oldest daughter off at camp.
Oh, she goes to Camp Bernie Sanders?
She went to Camp Bernie Sanders? She went to Camp
Bernie Sanders.
Well, she went to a camp in
Vermont, Sleepaway Camp, for
three and a half weeks. Oh, no. She should watch out
for that girl that has a dick.
Wait, what? Sleepaway Camp
joke. Keep up.
Hold on. back up.
Do you know,
you've never seen Sleepaway Camp?
Oh, I saw that movie!
Yeah!
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Great freeze frame
or someone standing very still
at the end of that movie.
Yes, at the end of the movie.
Still.
Yeah, she's like.
Backlit.
Yeah. Dick on the girl.
Girl with a dick, yes.
Yeah.
That's the big twist.
I'm going to be great.
I'm going to be great at this.
So you went to Vermont to drop your daughter off.
Yeah, that's what I was doing.
And then we also went to New York and saw...
Hamilton?
Hamilton.
Alexander Hamilton. Did you really? Hamilton. Alexander Hamilton.
Did you really?
Yeah, we did.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
I was making a silly guess.
No, but I really did see it.
Yeah.
We saw it.
We saw Hamilton.
Was that what you were going to say at the end of that sentence?
That we saw was going to be Hamilton?
Huh?
I guessed Hamilton, but at that point you only said we saw.
We saw. We did. We saw.
But what else did you see?
Hamilton.
Okay.
It's all Hamilton all the time?
We went to New York just for that.
You were those greedy assholes that saw it over and over again?
Nobody could get a ticket?
No, we saw that.
That was our purpose.
One time?
Oh, we also saw.
Wait. We did see something else.
We went and saw the Blue Man Group.
Yeah, it's about time.
I have two small children and that's, you know...
I saw it when I was...
Wait, your small kids went to Hamilton?
Yeah.
How'd they like it?
Fuck yeah!
They love Hamilton. They love
Hamilton. They got me into Hamilton.
Oh, they already do. It's a great musical.
They already like the soundtrack and shit?
Yeah. My seven-year-old
knows all the words
to Hamilton. That's a lot of
words. It's a
shitload of words.
It's interesting, too, that after you've seen
Hamilton, you know more about
Alexander Hamilton
than probably any
actual president
of the United States.
Like it really
tells you his
fucking story
beat by beat
and it's fun
at the same time.
It's like schoolhouse rock.
Yep.
Hamilton.
That's why your kids like it.
Is it a catchy tune?
They don't mind that they're learning.
A lot of catchy tunes.
Yeah.
I could do a lot of them for you right now
because I also know all the words to Hamilton.
You should play,
you could step in in a production somewhere
and play the king.
I could only play the king.
Right?
I could only play the king.
Because George Washington has to be black.
Everybody.
It's not for us.
It's not for us.
I can play the king.
You have to play the non-rapping character.
You say.
That's all I know.
Keep going.
I'm not going to sing.
I'm not going to sing the king.
Oh, that song's so good.
The king.
The king song is really good.
It's so good.
It's really fun.
Douglas movies can't afford the copyright for that song.
Well, you know, that's the great world of podcasting
is they haven't clamped down on us yet.
There's some podcasts that use a popular tune
as their theme song.
Like the day that the ASCAP or whatever steps in
and goes, hey, you gotta stop doing that,
they're gonna owe some cash.
Right.
They're gonna have to do some heavy editing.
But I don't mind people singing
a song on my show. Do you have a song you'd like
to sing, Greg?
The sun will come out
tomorrow.
I thought
it was going to be more of a
Dick Van Dyke number or
the end credits
of Legend of Bagger Vance.
These are Greg's hat jokes.
Greg Fitzsimmons is here, everybody.
Thank you.
But yeah,
your glasses are off, so
I don't know what's happening.
I don't know what causes
them to go on. Well, I don't know why I happening. I don't know what causes them to go on.
Well, I don't know why I wear them.
I got these glasses.
Rob Corddry, glasses on.
Greg Fitzsimmons, glasses on.
Off.
Like Simon Says.
I feel like this is my head shot.
It's like Simon Says with Tony in the middle going, what?
I got these glasses
and they cost like
200 bucks
and then the first time
I came home with them
I walked in the front door
and the first thing
I noticed
is that my wife
had sprouted her first
chin whiskers
and I was like,
that's money well spent.
I never would have
seen that.
All right, fellas.
That's all I get?
Because I was talking during everybody else?
Yeah, well, that's not why specifically,
but that's as good a reason as any.
All right.
Do you want more?
What else did you want to say? Nothing. I just felt like time-wise it a reason as any. All right. Do you want more? What else did you want to say?
Nothing.
I just felt like time-wise it wasn't as fair. Yeah.
It gets a little uneven, you know, but.
You have a microphone for the rest of the time,
so you can do whatever you want with it.
I'll fill.
I'll fill.
Because we're going to ask everybody now.
Do you want me?
I'll start with you.
What did you bring for the prize bag?
What did you bring for you and for Rob for the prize bag?
I collect comedy albums, and so I brought one of my favorite ones.
This is The Sick Humor of Lenny Bruce.
And on vinyl, in the plastic.
And somebody will be playing for this.
It just happened to be in your car.
And somebody will be playing for this.
It just happened to be in your car.
Well, I just went to Amoeba Records and I bought some new ones.
Oh, today?
No, a couple days ago.
And then I got here and then you said,
it's funny, Greg, how your prize must fit in your pocket.
And then I realized I forgot a prize.
So I went back to my car and I took one of these albums.
Yeah, I'm pretty smooth like that.
Would you bring a surprise pocket?
Pocket prize?
But then I also commented on the fact that,
so if this is in your car in Los Angeles for the last couple days,
why didn't it get all warped?
Well, it's still in the plastic.
I don't think that stops it from getting hot.
It's not. It's a useless album. it's still in the plastic. I don't think that stops it from getting hot.
It's a useless album.
No, you can still clean pot on it.
Is anyone still making pot with seeds in it?
Look at that. That's pristine.
Yeah, nothing happened to it.
Sitting in your car in the LA heat.
Yeah, that's good. That's a quality album.
A living thing would no longer be with us.
It's VG.
Yeah.
And what did you bring that Rob is going to
pawn off as his own thing?
Rob? Oh, the thing that I brought?
It's also a comedy album.
It's... a comedy album. It's...
Hold on.
Inside Shelley Berman.
Which I would really like to keep...
Inside Amy Schumer.
I would really like to keep...
Do people know that?
From myself.
I was going to accuse her of stealing it now.
Not cool, not cool.
Uh-oh.
Oh. Your other prize Uh-oh. Oh.
Your other prize
is falling apart.
It fell apart,
but it's a cup of noodles
and it's got a
pussy noodle.
It's Maria Bamford's
pussy noodle.
And I don't remember
who gave this to me.
Gabe the Magician
gave that to you outside.
Gabe the Magician
gave this to me outside.
He felt pity upon you. Where's he?
He's around here somewhere.
He's around here. He's in the back somewhere. Thanks, Dave.
Yeah. Dave? So, um...
Gabe.
Gabe. Gabe. Thank you.
Alright, pass that shit down, dude.
Give me a...
Give me a second.
We need some time.
Look at that.
And Tony Thaxton, what did you bring?
I brought a few things.
He worked at this.
I meant to grab some merch on tour, so I did forget that part.
So I grabbed a few random things.
Small stuff.
I brought some Star Wars Minute stickers. A podcast
that Doug and I have done many times.
Star Wars Minute, yeah.
My girlfriend and I moved recently and we have a
French bulldog named Ernie and
everyone that came to our housewarming party
went to Target and brought us
salt and pepper shakers. We literally
have three or four sets of these.
So I'm passing these on. They all gave you the same set of Bulldogs salt and pepper shakers?
Yep, multiple people.
Weird.
And so I'm pawning those off.
This is the prize you guys want.
By the way, he brought them in a Target plastic bag.
This is a sampler from the first Motion City record.
It's unopened.
It's before the record even came out. It's got two songs from the first Motion City record. It's unopened. It's before the record even came out.
It's got two songs from my first record on it.
Awesome.
These are probably eBay items, honestly,
if you don't care about us.
This is a split seven-inch
with a band called Trampled by Turtles.
We covered each other's songs.
And then two UK singles
from a song called This Is For Real.
Oh, didn't those singles just leave the European Union?
And I also brought one,
just one, used drumstick.
Yeah!
Normally to get one of those, it has to hit you
in the eye in the crowd.
But tonight, it's gonna be handed to you
if your name tag is the one that the winning person chooses.
Why just one? Are you like Def Leppard?
You know...
He plays out a tribute to them
and only plays with one hand.
Just as a... Just to honor them.
I did break my arm before recording one of our records
and just constantly got Def Leppard jokes for a solid year after that, I think.
And then, insult to injury, we actually have a song on that record called Hysteria,
which is unintentional, I think, supposedly.
All right, well, somebody's going to win all of that stuff tonight.
But before we play some games, I'd like to ask everybody,
we'll start with you, Greg,
what was the last motion picture that you saw?
I just saw on DVD, what's the movie about the Spanish,
the woman who was the painter?
Frida? Frida.
What?
Rob did not know that one.
Frida, it was excellent.
Far out.
I enjoyed it very much.
And I'm not...
Well, you probably put on your glasses and saw all of the hairs in her eyebrows.
Yes.
Because she's got a unibrow situation going on, that lady. It was good. in her eyebrows. Yes.
Because she's got
a unibrow situation
going on in that lady.
It was good.
Somebody should have won
Best Makeup.
I think it might have
been nominated.
Really?
Did it win?
It won Best Makeup?
Somebody said something
in the audience.
Oh.
But why did you,
why Frida?
Why now?
What happened in your life?
I don't, I think I, I get very into Mexicans because of Trump.
That's cool.
That's good.
Makes you more pro-Mexican.
Right.
I like that.
Now, I don't know why.
I think it was one of those movies you always hear is great and then you never see.
You worry that maybe Trump will outlaw those movies?
No movies about Mexicans.
Right.
They're rapists.
Yeah, you go to Blockbuster to rent it and there's a wall around that section.
You go to Blockbuster?
Where do you live in?
Why did you have to say that?
The joke worked on its own.
Everybody was laughing at it.
It was a perfectly good joke.
We all remember how Blockbusters worked.
There's a bank across the street that used to be
one.
Tony, what about you? What was the last
movie you saw?
I was flying yesterday and I finally
watched Hello, My Name is Doris.
Love that movie.
Yeah, I liked it a lot.
Great performance by Sally Field
and directed by Michael Showalter.
Yeah, not really.
I didn't quite know anything about it.
I knew it was a Michael Showalter movie, so it wasn't quite what I expected, but I really liked it, though.
Yeah, it's funny and I dare say extremely pleasant, which is a compliment because that's hard to pull off.
Just something that's just nice to watch.
Agreed.
You know, there's awkward scenes in there,
but it's never too uncomfortable.
Yeah, it works.
You don't see that quote on the poster, though, usually.
No, no.
This won't make you that uncomfortable.
Pleasant.
It's an easy enough sit.
You'll find yourself walking to the theater.
Independence Day 2.
You'll probably get through it.
Rob, what was the last movie you saw?
So yesterday, my seven-year-old daughter and I
watched Superman vs. Batman.
The new three-hour cut?
No.
No.
We were like, I said, what about the extended cut?
She said, no, Daddy.
Let's just watch the regular one.
And so we watched the regular one.
Because the extended cut's supposed to be much better.
Well, fuck it.
I know, I can't even watch it because I hated the regular cut so much.
I haven't even seen the regular cut yet.
I'm going to watch that first.
I liked it.
What?
Yeah, listen.
Yeah, listen.
Oh, the games are going to be good tonight.
Yeah.
Rob loves movies.
Rob loves all movies.
I get really involved in whatever I'm watching.
I can't watch them critically.
I never watch a movie critically.
I can't do it.
I wish I could.
So you like everything?
I pretty much like everything.
Yeah, every movie that I see, I like.
So I'm, because I'm stupid. Do you?
So you like every movie you're in then?
Name a movie. That must make you feel good.
One. No.
No, I'm critical of those.
Okay. That's when the critical eye
comes out or goes in.
Exactly right. Okay.
Yeah, no, but I liked it.
I was ready to hate it, but I was watching it
with my seven-year-old daughter, too.
Right, which that movie is aimed towards.
That's why it gets the PG-13 rating.
It's not for her.
And I was like, are we gonna watch?
We watched the trailer beforehand,
and it was super scary and weird,
and she was like, yeah.
Once she saw Wonder Woman, she wanted to watch it.
Right, that's good. If there's a Wonder Woman in a movie, she wanted to watch it. Right, that's good.
If there's a Wonder Woman in a movie,
we're going to watch it.
So you don't watch most movies, then?
No.
No.
I think all movies.
Has Wonder Woman been in a movie other than this one?
Well, no.
She had TV shows, Wonder Woman.
Cartoons.
She loves Supergirl.
That's a good show.
I like that show.
Yeah.
I like Supergirl herself is good.
I like everything.
Fucking Ally McBeal is there hanging out.
Ally McBeal's in it.
Yelling at people.
Jimmy Olsen is beautiful.
Yeah.
He's beautiful.
He's a handsome boy.
Handsome.
Jeremy Jordan, I think, is his name.
Great.
Yeah. Great. Yeah.
Great.
Anyway.
We're big Supergirl fans, you guys.
That's where I stand.
You know, after you hit 40, that stuff was really fun to watch.
Greg, for Tony and Greg, what's the thing that's probably
skews too young for you,
but you still enjoy watching it?
Well,
child porn doesn't skew young.
I mean, it involves
the youth.
But I do feel...
Tony, same question. I've... But I do feel...
Tony, same question.
I mean... Who do you feel creepy watching?
I can't...
How do I follow that?
I mean, Doug knows.
I love the Muppets.
There you go.
Yeah, so I'll still always watch those.
Did you think they blew it with the recent TV
incarnation making it too adult and too
like Larry Sanders? Kind of. I wanted
to love it, but I did not.
And it sounds like not many other people did either.
Yeah, well maybe you should be
behind like figuring out a way to make the Muppets
work. Sure. You're such a
fan. But I don't think that
that's not pervy really because they're all just
fake puppet things, you know?
Fake puppets?
As opposed to...
You're right, I use too many words.
They're all puppets.
Right? There's no non-puppet Muppet.
Jason Segel doesn't count.
But what is, but bring us back to why did they change,
why did Jim Henson put an M instead of a P
at the beginning of his puppets?
I believe it's supposed to be like a combination
of marionette and puppet.
Right.
Barely.
Well, because Kermit especially had those sticks
where he operated them where his arms could move,
so that makes him marionette-ish.
Well, if you want more of that kind of
insider Muppet talk,
Tony is the man to go to.
If I see a tweet in my timeline
about the Muppets, it's Tony.
You're a real Muppet
supporter. You're a Muppeteer.
You're welcome.
And I love them, too. I'm sad they don't have that
attraction anymore at Disneyland.
Is it not coming back, either?
I don't know.
I wasn't sure.
I don't know.
Now they just show fucking 15 minutes of their next movie inside that theater.
It's just like, what are you doing, guys?
Come on.
We're going to seize Zootopia anyway.
Shit.
That's right.
What's the thing your seven-year-old loves that you don't, Rob, that you're not into
and it's frustrating you have to watch it with her?
Oh.
Or have it on at all?
Oh, you know what she wanted to watch yesterday?
And I convinced her to watch
that fucking terrible Superman and Batman movie.
She wanted to watch Bedtime Stories with Adam Sandler.
That's an Adam Sandler movie.
I enjoy that movie more than Batman vs. Superman.
I have no idea.
It's got a lot of fantastical elements.
I think Felicity is in it.
It's Bedtime Stories.
It's not a real adult movie.
But it's hard to find a movie that
adult parents can enjoy with their kids.
Yeah.
You know?
Well, and Sandler,
and I'm not one of these guys that attacks Sandler,
because it's like a...
I'm not attacking Sandler.
I just...
Okay, go ahead, Greg.
Go ahead.
Go ahead.
He'll throw you
a curveball
you think you're safe
to watch a
Sandler movie
with your kids
because that's kind of
the intelligence level
of his movies
right
and no
and I'm not saying
that insultingly
I think he aims it
towards kids sometimes
right
and then you watch
your kids
and then all of a sudden
like Rob Schneider
is jerking off
or something
like he always
puts in something
that just makes it like
a rated r movie in an otherwise child movie yeah yeah i'd say the best one to watch with kids would
probably be a wedding singer because that that was that no bedtime stories is a kid's movie though
right is it i'm sure there's a scene where somebody farts right in some rob schneider's
probably jerking off in that movie somewhere.
Or maybe he wasn't in that one because he was too busy jerking off somewhere.
I forget what the last movie...
I think the last movie I saw was long enough ago that...
Oh, no, actually, it was yesterday, so...
Not that long ago, as it turns out.
But I've already been talking about it a lot.
I saw the new Independence Day resurgence.
You sound excited.
It's just sad to me.
I bet you I'd love it.
Yeah, it's just weird.
I liked it better than Batman v Superman
just because I didn't get angry at it.
But that's not a way to recommend a movie.
You won't get angry at it.
And a lot of people will get angry at it
because it's just kind of boring
and just sort of going through all the same steps.
But, like, how can we, you know, make a better Independence Day?
Well, first of all, we've got to take Will Smith out of there
because he clearly had nothing to do with the success of that movie.
Him and that movie together didn't make him and that movie
major, major money.
That was his turning point.
That's when people started calling 4th of July Will Smith Weekend.
Like that weekend, he owned that weekend
for like several years with Dad and Men in Black.
You know what?
I'm hearing the crickets, so I'll move.
Isn't that great, Greg?
To be doing comedy in a room
where there's crickets constantly.
I'm convinced that it was the owners of this theater
that put those in just to make you
fucking take it up a notch.
Yeah, you gotta work hard.
If the crickets are going off, you're not getting
the job done. Yeah, I think every
major comedy club should get a couple crickets.
Well, let me
just try to fix the situation. The last
movie I saw was A Bug's Life.
Is there even a cricket
in that one? I don't even know if that's a...
I think the cricket is the meanest character.
I think the bad guy's... Oh, he's a grasshopper.
Of course. Oh, shit.
He's not a fucking stupid little cricket.
Okay, well, Bert Kreischer, you can
turn the show off now because
this is a part of the show where I say let the games begin
Rob and my other friends up here the pen on the panel the audience has brought
name tags of varying degrees of creativity and punmanship some one
person just has a backpack and put her name on there,
but that's probably on there just in case you lose the backpack.
But each one of you gets to select a name tag you want to play for,
go physically grab it from the person,
and some people are trying to bribe you with treats.
And while you do that, we'll do this.

Rob Corddry, what do you got there?
Who are you playing for?
Caprice Korn 1.
And why did you pick it?
Because it's really well done.
and why did you pick it because it's really well done and not only that she was hiding it the whole at during the beginning of the show she wasn't shown
she was you had a hidden right yeah yeah that's the idea well but this is worth
hiding I like look at this that's her face even do that your face there yeah
thank you she put her face in, she put her face in there.
She put her face in there.
Good job.
Good job getting your face in there.
Nobody else is with me.
Fuck you.
I mean, that's sort of what they do.
Can I see it for a second?
That's sort of what they do.
That's what all the name tags do.
I mean, this is what the backpack did.
But a lot of the name tags do that because, you know, that's the idea.
It's supposed to represent you.
Yeah, but that's pretty pro, right?
Oh, she did a great job.
You see my face down there on, who's that?
Josh Brolin?
OJ Simpson?
Here's the thing that's funny to me.
Do you remember back in the day when people in their credits would have, like, on the poster,
there would be, like, a box around their name?
Do they still do that?
Like an extra little bump up for Karen Black
and Telly Savalas?
Who loves you, baby?
No, you're fighting for the and or with credit.
You're not fighting for the boxed credit.
Please draw a box around my name.
We got you the boxed credit.
I always wanted to be in a movie where,
well, period.
But if I was,
I want to be
and introducing
Greg Fitzsimmons.
Yeah.
It was fun in Ocean's Eleven
when they said
and introducing
Julia Roberts
as Tess.
Yeah, isn't that cute?
I gotta see that movie.
Made me want to
punch that movie.
All right, so what do you got there, Tony?
Not exactly creative, but I'm a Star Wars dork,
so I took Dar-2-D-2 here.
Just a Dar-2-D-2 backpack.
And her name is Darcy?
I don't know.
Yeah, there you go.
I figured it out.
There's even like an open can of soda in the side of that backpack.
Why are you keeping that can?
That's her active backpack.
Are you that responsible about recycling?
I'm just consolidating my stuff.
Consolidating your stuff?
All right, you hoarder in a backpack.
I do all of my hoarding
in backpack-sized
things.
Greg?
This is In Bruges.
It says, Smoke first,
sightsee later, and it's got Doug
as, who was the
original character? That must be
Colin Farrell, maybe? Yeah.
Sadly, Mark Wahlberg is not me. the original character? That must be Colin Farrell, maybe. Yeah.
Sadly, Mark Wahlberg is not me,
and Colin Johnson is not Rob Corddry.
Well, you know, they didn't guess you guys were going to be here
because you're such a special guest.
Oh, that's right.
You don't announce your guests.
Yeah, they don't know who's going to be here.
Oh, then fair enough.
Forgive them.
This is just guest work that's going on.
Because Mark Wahlberg's on the show pretty frequently.
And then there's also a
shark-weak donut that comes with this.
Yeah. That's like a Swedish fish
shark, I guess, or a gummy shark
on top of a blue
iced donut. It looks like the
ocean. And you're
going to enjoy that later?
I feel a little weird about eating that?
That's what we do on the show sometimes when doughnuts come up on stage as we chuck them back into the audience
Oh, that's why that guy yelled that right?
Or that weird lady so what you might
Remember the ceilings really low so, you, so if you throw it too high,
it's just going to come down hard on somebody.
All right, here we go.
Greg's going to throw it.
Watch your clothes and faces.
Oh!
That went on the floor.
She got it.
She got it.
The shark didn't fall off of it?
All right.
That is full of mushrooms.
Don't eat the whole thing. Don't eat the whole thing.
Do not eat the whole thing.
Oh, there you go.
There's the bag that it was on.
Just keep it on the chair.
Put it in the backpack, she says.
Or just throw it on the ground.
I want to keep...
Whoever cleans up in here after the show,
we want to keep them employed,
so just throw your garbage down, everybody.
This first game we're going to play,
and these are some new games,
so maybe none of you have played
a couple of the games we're playing tonight.
We're starting with Jason and Deb's IMDb game.
See, the crowd loves it. crowd loves it crowd pleaser the idea of it is that everybody that's you know has some movie
credits is has an IMDB page and on it they do a thing where they say here's
the top top four best known for movies
or projects for each person.
Yeah, so just to give you an idea of how it works.
This is terrible.
It'll be okay.
Go ahead, go ahead.
You're going to do all right.
Go ahead.
But to give you an idea of how it works, Rob,
just guess what do you think your top four best known for things are
mine? yeah and
this is no pressure this is just
as an example but
also now they just
announced IMDB is going to set it
up so that an actor or actress
or anybody that's got an IMDB
page directors or whatever
can go into their IMDB page if they're on
like IMDB pro you know if they're on like IMDB Pro, you know,
if they're paying them, you can get in there
and pick your top four yourself.
And someone wrote to me on Twitter,
that's gonna ruin your game.
And I'm like, no it isn't.
It's almost better to be like,
which four movies does Nicolas Cage think are his best?
think are his best.
So,
that being said, Rob,
by the current metric,
because you haven't gone in and fixed it,
you haven't changed it.
What do you think the top four are for you?
Okay.
No pressure.
Hot tub time machine.
Hold your applause until the end. Yes.
That's number one.
Probably not Hot Tub Time Machine two.
Did not make the top four.
What Happens in Vegas.
Yes.
Number four. Is it on there?
It's in the four, yeah.
Far out.
Two more.
It's not always all movies.
Keep that in mind.
Oh, wait.
It's what?
TV shows or something?
Yeah, or plays.
Or plays. Hamilton?
Children's Hospital? Some people
like a podcast or something will creep into their
top four. If you keep coming on this
show, it might happen. Yes, Children's Hospital.
And one more. Shit. Ballers? That show, it might happen. Yes, Children's Hospital. And one more.
Shit.
Ballers?
That's not it.
What?
Ballers?
No.
Love you on Ballers, by the way, though.
Yeah, thanks, man.
New season starts any day now.
Yes, July something.
Mr. Self-promotion is here, everybody.
The Rock is on the show
I don't have to
promote that show
I don't have to do anything
Just stand next to him
Yeah
Just be part of his orbit
What is the
What's the fourth one?
You don't have to guess anymore
You guessed four things
You got three out of four
The Greg Fitzsimmons show
You were on that?
A lot
I'm a friend of the show
It's actually called
Fitz Dog Radio
Whatever man
You got
You got a lot going on
I'm on all of it
He is
Yeah that is true
Does it have Greg Fitzsimmons
on it?
No
What is it?
Your fourth thing
is Warm Bodies
Oh yeah
That's a good one
Yeah right
That's a good movie That's a good movie.
That's a bit of applause.
Has your seven-year-old seen that one?
No, but she probably could.
I'm not going to show
my seven-year-old movies that I'm in.
Well, I mean, some of these other ones
I wouldn't if I were you, but that one seems like
it's for
young women would enjoy it. I think I have a 10-year-old daughter that one seems like it's for young women would enjoy it.
I think I have a 10-year-old daughter.
She might like it a little bit more.
Show it to the 10-year-old.
Just be like, do you want to see some warm bodies,
honey?
Greg Fitzsimmons, what do you think your top four are?
Oh, I have a top four?
And I'll give you a clue. None of them are movies.
I'm in a tight spot here.
And I don't mean with the ratings.
I mean career-wise.
Could we say Fitz Dog Radio is one of them?
No.
Would we say Howard Stern Show?
No.
Would we say...
Oh, God.
It's probably writing crazy.
Did you do a stand-up special called Life on Stage?
Yes, I did.
That's not on there.
I just did that to be a jerk.
It's number three on there.
I just knew that that would work out great.
Let me think.
It's not Children's Hospital
because Rob never put me on that.
Yeah, I sat by the phone nights
waiting for that call.
Right, right.
It's perfect the way it is.
Best Week Ever on VH1?
Oh, no.
Oh, yeah. Chelsea Lately? You got to think more. it's perfect the way it is best week ever on VH1 oh no oh yeah
Chelsea Lately
you gotta think more
I think they kind of went
with more of the
writer angle on you
oh
Lucky Louie
no
Jesus
Ellen Degenerate
that's number one
oh
the Ellen show
first two seasons
and then number two
is Politically Incorrect
right
wrote on that as well
yeah
and then the man show wrote on that as well. Yeah, and then The Man Show comes in at number four.
Wrote on that as well.
Yeah, I guess they really leaned on my writing credits.
Yeah, they'll do that,
because they've got to fill the four slots.
They could have gone with Summer Jobs as a teenager or something.
Coming in at number two, Caddy.
Number three, Newspaper Boy.
I didn't see that.
It wasn't a...
It was a thing.
But you keep the look going to this day,
the Newspaper Boy.
Your biggest laughs are on me, Doug.
You're welcome.
Glad I showed up tonight.
I will fucking drop a Newsies reference
on anyone wearing that kind of hat
any day of the goddamn week, even Sunday.
So here's how this game works
now that we've talked about the idea of the top four.
And I apologize, Tony,
that I didn't even look up your top four.
I'm sure there aren't.
Might be like four movies
that Motion City soundtrack songs are in
if there's four
there might be four
yeah
I wasn't
I always forget to
mention that
I actually
in Muppet speak
again there's a
Big Bird documentary
that came out last year
that I called
I am Big Bird
I'm actually in it
for like
roughly seven seconds
I think
that might be
your number one
on IMDB
I don't think I got
a credit somehow
oh okay
yeah but I speak what's the movie I am Big Bird okay all right so
here's how this game works I start listing off the top four on somebody's
IMDb page an actor actress that we all know or should know you can buzz in with
your own name as soon as you think you know what actor I'm talking
about. But if you come in early,
you're taking a big chance
because if it's only one movie
that's been listed,
several actors could be the one
and you'll get a negative point
if you miss.
But if you get it right on the first one,
you can get
three additional bonus points for each of the first one, you can get three additional bonus points
for each of the top four that you can name.
But if you come in on the second one,
you could get two bonus points.
I hope you get what I mean.
Just buzz in with your own name when you think you know.
Say your own name?
Say your own name.
Say Rob Corddry.
And then say the answer? I'd just say rob if i were you but you know i don't mind a formal wait so if we know the answer
we say rob not we just you i mean me okay so i say rob no well i think i'll recognize it's your voice
so say any name you want just be the first person to make a noise.
All right.
Like, I go on Adam Carolla's show,
and he plays this game where you buzz in with your own name,
and he changes his name to a one-syllable name
because he thinks it takes too long to buzz in as Adam.
But if you go, Adam,
the ah is what, that's the point where you're first
because you're making a noise.
So how many syllables in your name does not give you
any less of a chance?
Right?
Can we play
the fucking game?
It's been like 20 minutes.
Hey, Rob, what are your top four?
Greg, you don't have credits.
Tony, how
fast can you say Tony?
Done.
In fact, yeah, just say your name as if it's one syllable.
All right, here we go.
I just got a request from Greg Fitzsimmons that we start the game.
Greg.
And I like to honor requests.
The first movie on this person's top four on IMDb
is called 17 Again.
Shit.
The second movie is called High School Musical.
Tony.
Tony, who is it?
Zac Efron.
That is correct.
What?
So Tony gets one point.
Fuck you, Tony.
Tony gets one point for Zac Efron.
And now if you can name two more Zac Efron movies that are in his top four, you get two more points.
Yeah, I don't know if I can do this.
We're playing highest score after
four rounds, but I also have a tiebreaker
available if it's necessary.
Go ahead. Neighbors?
No, Neighbors
did not make the cut.
Then that's it. He shouldn't be able to guess.
He gets two guesses, but he'll only get one
point if he gets one more right. He gets two guesses, but he'll only get one point
if he gets one more right.
He's better than us.
He's younger,
faster, stronger.
Let him do his thing.
I don't know.
Was he...
I don't know if he was
in the sequels,
but I feel like that's...
Sequels to what?
High School Musical.
Well, do you want to try?
Do you want to try adding him over?
I thought you meant 18 again.
I feel...
Yeah, because literally the only other movie I can think of is Dirty Grandpa,
and I'm guessing that's not on there.
No.
The Lucky One?
I don't even know what that is.
What?
That's one of those kind of Nicholas Sparks kind of deals.
Somebody dies and is a ghost.
Oh, jeez.
Or is that Charlie St. Cloud?
And then his fourth one is That Awkward Moment.
With Miles Teller and Michael B. Jordan.
Oh, God.
Yeah, yeah.
All right, so only one point for Tony on that round.
So you feel better now, Rob?
Nope.
He only got one point.
Let's try the next one.
The top number one movie out of four on IMDb for this person is called Pitch Perfect.
The number two movie is called Up in the Air.
Tony, who is it?
Anna Kendrick.
That's correct. That. Tony. Who is it? Anna Kendrick. That's correct.
Now two more Anna Kendrick movies for potentially two more points.
I think this is the part where I suck.
Pitch Perfect 2.
Correct.
And?
Up in the Air 2.
Back up in the air.
That would be the worst.
Up in the air 2, colon, back up in the air.
I think any movie that uses the same word again
after the colon, unless it's the,
is pretty lazy.
Like Home Alone 2.
Oh, it's Lost in New York.
I take it back.
Didn't Die Hard do that?
Did they say...
Die Hard colon, Die Hard with a Vengeance.
Die Harder.
I don't know if Die Harder was ever officially the title.
That's debatable.
Settle down.
We already got into the whole controversy over The Lord of...
It's called The Lord of the Rings.
The Fellowship of the Ring and the two towers and the other one.
Do you have one more guess, Tony?
It's going to be wrong. We gave you a lot of time to think. I know, and I can't pull, Tony? It's going to be wrong.
We gave you a lot of time to think.
I know, and I can't pull the title.
It's going to be wrong anyways.
Fuck, what is that called?
Just try it.
Shit, shit, shit.
I liked her a lot.
It's on VOD now, a movie called Mr. Right with Sam Rockwell is pretty good.
That's not the answer.
I can't pull the title right now.
All right.
You got one, Greg? Nope. Just for fun. Into the answer. I can't pull the title right now. All right. You got one, Greg?
Nope.
Just for fun.
Into the Woods.
Oh, that is not that one.
Into the Woods.
Fantastic movie.
Into the Woods.
Did you watch that with the kids?
Yes, I did.
There you go.
Both of the kids.
Fantastic.
And then the sequel, Back into the Woods?
Mm-hmm.
Also starring James Corden.
Back into the Woods we go all right so Tony's ahead with three points
and there's no nothing else to talk about but there's always plenty of room
for to get a lot of points here the The next round starts with, and sometimes it's TV, like I said before,
this person's first credit is a TV thing, Parks and Recreation.
Amy Poehler.
Rob.
Is she playing in the game?
Because that's how she would buzz in.
I meant to say Rob.
I'm great at games.
I'm great at...
Go ahead, Doug.
Okay, so that's your guess. Is Amy
Poehler? Well, Rob.
Amy Poehler? Well, Rob. Amy Poehler.
Incorrect.
Shit.
I jumped the gun.
No, but it's smart.
You've got to make up some points.
Greg.
That gives you a negative one.
Greg, go ahead.
Aziz Ansari.
No.
I'm sorry.
Rob.
Rob.
Is that
within the rules?
No, you're out for this round.
Alright, fair enough.
I'm just going to start listing this.
Now, Tony's going to get a gimme
on this next title, I think.
About time he got a break.
Safety not guaranteed.
What?
Parks and Rec, safety not guaranteed.
I'll wait.
Audience members are getting it.
Don't say anything.
It's just Tony.
It's all about Tony.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, Tony.
There we go.
Yeah.
Aubrey Plaza.
That's correct.
I forgot.
I was thinking of the wrong movie.
Give me two more Aubreys.
Shit.
Yeah.
Funny People?
Nope.
That's a good one. Sandler movie to watch with your kids.
You hear a cricket, Rob?
Yep.
Is she in Warren Bodies?
I don't think so.
Let's ask Rob. Maybe. Is Aubrey Plaza Bodies? I don't think so. Let's ask Rob.
Maybe.
Is Aubrey Plaza in there?
Probably.
She could be.
There's some scenes you're not in.
I don't know.
They went with Scott Pilgrim vs. The World
and Monsters University.
She's a voice in that.
All right. Tony has four points. she's a voice in that yeah all right so
Tony has four points and it's pretty good lead Greg is beating me with zero
points no he's got negative one as well you guys are tied in the basement there
yeah you guys are tied up in a basement. What happens next?
Here's the first title of the next round.
This is the last round.
This is your last chance to catch up,
and it's impossible.
Greg.
Unless Tony buzzes in and gets something wrong.
Greg, go ahead.
Tom Cruise.
Oh, if that had been right,
then you could have actually caught up to Tony.
But it, of course, is not right.
So now you have negative two.
So Rob, you're in the cabaret seat.
All you gotta do is sit there and not say anything.
Rob!
And you'll come in second place.
What do you got?
Oh, Ed Harris.
Shit.
Well, wow.
Tony's probably going gonna get the highest score
anybody's ever got in this game.
Because he's all on his own now
and gets to actually hear the clues.
The first title is Pitch Perfect 2.
Oh.
Oh.
The second one is a movie called The Intern.
Pretty sure...
Keep going.
Because I don't think Robert De Niro
is pitch perfect, too.
The third movie
is pitch perfect?
I don't know.
The fourth title is a TV show called The Workaholics.
Oh, Tony.
Adam Devine?
That's correct.
Tony wins with five points.
Jesus.
I'm starting to get this game.
Do you guys want to try the tiebreaker just for laughs?
Yeah.
Yeah, okay.
All right, who was in?
The first movie is Life As We Know It.
The second is a TV show, Silicon Valley.
Greg.
What do you got?
Thomas Middleditch. That's a great guess. That's the only one I knew from that show. Charlie. Greg. What do you got?
Thomas Middleditch.
That's a great guess.
That's the only one I knew from that show.
Wrong.
Know what, nobody else wants to buzz in?
Keep going.
Sex tape.
Oh, Tony, Tony. Who is it? Kumail Nanjiani. That's correct and I won't even torch you with trying to guess
his fourth title because it's a the sequel to Kings of the Fall.
I should work for the studios.
Yeah,
because,
you know,
it's obviously
a prequel.
Or no,
you're right,
Fall Comes After Summer.
So,
point for Greg
for that.
Yeah.
So, the final tally on that game
is Tony with five,
Greg with negative one,
and Rob with negative two.
Hmm.
But I like the,
in the back of the room,
yay!
That's like that schoolhouse rock
where the guy's like,
I'm for the other team.
He's in the back
and people throw stuff at him.
Alright, so
I think I've got a good idea for what we should
do for our last game
this evening. The one that decides
who wins it all. We're going to play
a little something called Last Man Stanton.
And the idea with this game is that we're going to get
the name of an actor or actress,
hopefully a very popular one with a lot of credits,
and we're going to take turns naming...
I play along on this one for fun.
We take turns naming movies that person was in.
Why is... My phone is doing so much crazy shit tonight.
Turn it on. Put it on the airplane mode.
Who is this guy?
It's Eddie Pepitone.
Answer it. Answer it.
Has anybody ever pocket periscoped?
I pulled up somebody's periscope
in my
fucking pocket.
Should I write something to this guy?
I'll write the kind of shit
people always write to me I don't know you and then hold it up to the mic yeah
let's hear what he says when he sees it brothers and sisters like they're your enemy and get you to not support the gospel
I don't know God
Jesus
People talk about
false prophets in our generation.
You've got to be careful of the false preacher.
That's the most dangerous person
that got a microphone.
Coming from a guy on Periscope
preaching.
He's got
166 people
checking this out.
And he's talking about his church and stuff,
but it doesn't seem like he's being very
non-responsive to probably the negative comments.
Or, you know,
things that... But anyway, that was...
I've never done that before. Pocket
Periscope.
So where was I?
I think I should
start over. My name is Doug and I love movies.
Doug loves movies!
And my guest tonight...
Let's do...
So I'm going to get the name of somebody for Last Man Stanton.
But here's the thing, you guys.
In this game, you each get one lifeline.
When it comes to you, if you can't come up with an answer,
you can use the person whose name tag
you chose. So Caprice
and Darcy and
what was yours?
What's your name? Colin.
Colin, because that fits
perfectly into the title, In Bruges.
Colin
Bruges, yeah. No, that's what I said.
It fits in perfectly
and
so he's
you can go to him
you know
you get it
you go to your own
person who's name tag
can I skip me
and go directly to him
you can
that's a strategy
like in the first round
but you know
it's gonna be
it should be easier
at first
so when you can't have
when you don't have an answer
that's when you go to your lifeline, generally.
And just last as long as you can.
And since Tony won that game,
we'll start with him,
and then we'll go to Rob,
and then me,
and then you, Greg.
All right.
So you're going to be the toughest for Greg at first,
potentially.
Sometimes the answers other people give help you.
Like if they say a movie that, like if somebody says Ocean's Eleven,
then the next two people can go 12 and 13,
because it's all the same fucking people.
And all of them.
Right.
Colin, did you hear that?
No, Colin knows how to play.
All right.
People on Twitter like to let me know that they have the perfect name for the game.
And tonight I'd like to see if Dar2D2 is here.
And that's you, Darcy?
That happens sometimes.
I pick somebody random before the show and her name tag got chosen.
So you might want to pick a name that you think Tony is really good with
or just the one you already wanted
to say.
Tom Hardy. She's going with Tom Hardy.
Bad move. Come on.
Shit.
I'm first, right?
No.
What? No.
Tony gets to go first, because he won that last game.
Fair enough.
No exaggeration.
Every time I have seen a Tom Hardy movie, when the movie's over, I see his name come up in the credits and go, oh, that was Tom Hardy.
He's the hardest person of all.
Yeah, he's a bit of a chameleon, but we can all.
She has a backup.
No, I say we play it.
Let's play it. Let's play it.
Let's see how rough it is.
I mean, you know.
I'm going to be terrible at all the names,
so it doesn't matter for me.
It doesn't matter what it is.
Like if it was Jack Nicholson,
you wouldn't know...
Who?
The golfer.
Oh, yeah!
We switched to sports.
Tony.
All right, let's just go obvious.
Dark Knight Rises.
Uh-huh.
Okay.
Me now, right?
Uh-huh.
The Revenant.
Yep.
I'll say Mad Max Fury Road.
Shit.
Colin?
You're going to your lifeline already?
I told you I was going to do that.
What do you got, Colin?
Dark Knight Rises?
We said that already.
We said that, man.
What are you doing over there?
I can't believe that's my guy.
Can he go to my life flight?
No, can I pick somebody else?
And no offense, Colin,
but I didn't know when I was picking it
that I would have to rely on him.
No, that's part of the fun.
Can I pick a different person?
Just randomly pick somebody?
Yeah.
That's not him?
Yep.
I don't see any reason why not,
because he said a movie that's already been said,
so technically, you know.
No, I want to pick this blonde woman over here,
because I keep noticing her mouthing the answers
before other people do,
so I think she's really good.
All right, well, you can only go to her the one time,
but let's see.
All right, let's do it this time but let's see if she's got one.
Don't say Dark Knight Rises.
I don't know.
Can I...
This is a fun game.
Greg is going to pick someone else now.
All right, let me pick somebody who's...
All right, that guy there with the beard.
With his hand up?
Yeah.
Oh, he definitely has one.
That'd be weird to be, like,
begging to be chosen.
I got nothing, you guys.
Bronson.
Bronson.
Do you think that's a correct answer?
Now that you say it,
I see that Colin is saying,
yeah, that's it.
All right, Bronson.
You're going with Bronson.
Okay, that's correct.
Back to you, Tony.
Lock?
Is that what that's called?
Uh-huh.
I almost said drive.
Nope, you gotta lock the doors
and then drive.
Me now, right?
Yeah, it's you.
And I gotta get
the name right.
You still got a lifeline.
You gotta get the name right or you can go to your lifeline.
Yeah, the craze?
Right.
No, no, that's not what it's called.
Fuck!
Yeah, I'm sorry.
Do you want to use your lifeline?
I guess I...
You probably should have.
Let me think for a second.
Okay, one.
Don't.
Yeah.
Just counting them down for you.
I'm gonna go.
You got it.
Oh.
What?
The fighter?
The warrior.
She said the warrior.
She was so confident about the fighter.
But, yeah,
the whole row corrected her.
I don't normally allow this,
but I just sort of feel like
Tony's going to win no matter what.
Thanks, man.
No offense.
But yeah, you want to go with warrior
or the fighter?
Warrior.
Warrior is correct.
There's one that's driving me crazy
that I can't think of the actual title,
but I can see it.
I can watch scenes from it.
And I just can't think of what it's called.
Wait, no, wait.
I think I...
Nope, still don't have it.
But one that I definitely know about
and I recommend.
I usually don't recommend movies during this part
because I don't,
you know,
I have my own taste,
but I think people
will really like it
if they check it out.
A movie called The Drop.
Ah.
With,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
ah,
with James Gandolfini
and Tom Hardy's
really,
really good in it.
All right,
Greg, it's back to you. You don't have a lifeline anymore. Wait, it's still Tom Hardy is really, really good in it. Alright, Greg, it's back to you.
You don't have a lifeline anymore.
Wait, it's still Tom Hardy?
Oh, yeah. No, it's Tom
Hardy until we can't Tom Hardy
anymore. What does he look like?
He...
He's
the fellow that, like,
in Dark Knight Rises, he shopped
beforehand at Burlington
Coat Factory.
Blue Collar.
Oh that's Tom Selleck.
I pass.
And that's not even Blue
Collar. It's Blue something else.
Blue Bloods.
Blue Collar was a
70s movie with Richard Pryor.
Harvey Keitel, I think.
All right, Tony.
Yeah, there's one.
I can't pull it.
I think I got to go Lifeline already.
All right, that's cool.
It was her damn idea.
It was the drop was mine, but Inception.
Inception, of course. Inception. Inception, of course.
Inception.
That's a big one.
Thank you.
That was him?
That was him?
I'm trying to cheat with someone in the front row,
but I can't understand.
Don't mouth the answers.
I can't understand what he's saying.
Or cheat.
Don't. No cheating.
I don't want to turn he or she in.
Because they've been great.
I'm going to go with
a Tom Hardy movie
that's exactly what we're looking for
called
let's do Tom Hardy
the craze
dude what the fuck
was that movie called
I know right if you knew that'd be so perfect
you'll find out soon enough
you can do it If you knew, that would be so perfect. You'll find out soon enough. Oh, my God. Ah!
You can do it.
It was about gangsters.
Gangsters.
That's what you're going with?
British gangsters.
British gangsters.
It's called British twin gangsters.
British twin gangsters. Yeah, fuck it.
I don't know.
Yeah.
Oh, well, you're out.
I guess I'm out.
Yeah, nice try, though.
Sorry, Caprice.
It was good play. Hey, don't get mad at. I guess I'm out. Yeah, nice try, though. Sorry, Caprice. It was good play.
Hey, don't get mad at me.
Are you ready?
Nobody's mad?
No, people are loving you on here.
Yeah.
No, I fucked this up, man.
You didn't fuck it up, man,
because you are exactly what the title is to me.
A legend.
It's called Legend.
Shit.
That's exactly what it's called?
Yeah.
Son of a bitch.
Tony?
I might be out.
I might be tapped too.
The one I was trying to think of, I'll even help you because you're already the winner. We might be thinking too. The one I was trying to think of,
I'll even help you because you're already the winner.
We might be thinking of the same one.
You're the winner.
Shia LaBeouf, Shia LaBeouf are brothers
and it's a western
and they get in trouble with another gang or whatever
and we've got to, Someone guess Transformers.
Even though we're not looking for audience guesses
just quite yet.
Wait, is it your turn or is it my turn?
It's your turn and also the game is pretty much over.
I just wanted to give you a chance
by saying it had Shia LaBeouf in it.
No, I'm thinking of something that had Reese Witherspoon in it. What?
Yeah. Tom Hardy and Reese
Witherspoon? Yeah, and I'm
just gonna... Oh, oh, oh, I know what it's called.
For some reason, this word
is coming to my brain, but I don't think it's right, but
it's the only thing I have. Is it called, like, The Engagement?
No. It's called
This Means Warrior. Oh.
No!
You don't get to do a builder title in this game as often as I would like.
But yeah, yeah, there you go.
But what's the name of the one I'm talking about, Shia LaBeouf?
Lawless.
Lawless.
I kept thinking Lawmaker, and I was like, why would that movie be called Lawmaker?
Lawless.
All right.
And did we miss any other ones?
Marie Antoinette.
Marie Antoinette, he's in that?
Yep.
Peaky Blinders.
Peaky Blinders.
He's in Layer Cake?
Child 44.
Child 44.
If you're just going to make up titles.
Star Trek Nemesis.
What?
What?
Oh, yeah.
He's in the next generation movie
Star Trek Genesis
oh yeah
Genesis
Genesis
Nemesis
Nemesis
wait what about
Black Hawk Down
I don't think he was
in Black Hawk Down
I just heard somebody
yell that
so I figured out
what?
but he is a tough one
because he's a chameleon
and has only been
in a dozen or so things
but there's probably
a lot more titles
like in the
in the UK
that he's
was in
but
but boy is he a good actor
what was your backup one
the drop
or oh
my backup person
yeah person
Sigourney Weaver
oh my god
that wouldn't have been much better yeah would have been a little better what person. Sigourney Weaver? Oh my God, that wouldn't have been
much better.
Yeah.
Would have been a little better.
What's a Sigourney Weaver movie?
I'm an alien.
There you go.
Alien.
Alien 2.
Alien.
I mean aliens.
Alien 3.
Alien Resurrection.
I think just Alien.
I think just Alien.
Both Ghostbusters so far.
I don't know if she's in the new one.
Does she have a cameo in the new one?
Yes.
Yes.
Saddest man on earth over there.
Fish Call Wanda?
No, that was Jamie Lee Curtis.
Greg, I'll have you back on the show anytime you want to be back I don't care
that you don't know the answers because the other than that you're a complete delight
and uh in a world what in a world Sigourney Weaver's in that yeah yeah yeah like me yeah
I'm in that movie too what's your What's your favorite movie that you're in?
Oh.
If you had to pick one.
Shit.
I'd say, can I pick two?
I'll ask you a different question.
Go ahead.
If Children's Hospital and Ballers were in a fight, which show would win?
Children's Hospital. Would kick the shit out fight, which show would win? Children's Hospital.
Would kick the shit out of Ballers?
Yeah.
Fuck yeah.
Because your character in Children's Hospital is tougher than your character in Ballers?
Yep.
Okay, what did you want to pick?
Two movies that are your favorite?
Warm Bodies and Hot Tub.
There you go. You're so hilarious
in Hot Tub Time Machine. Thank you.
I dare say you're the only
reason they made a second one.
Fucking Cusack
steps out the door. Oh boy.
Cusack is valuable to
a movie franchise.
If you start a movie with him,
keep it going with him.
Has the Cues ever been in a sequel?
He was excused from that one.
I don't think he's ever been in a sequel.
I'll throw that down right now no High Fidelity 2
no Say Anything 2
Say Anything's the one I'd love to see him reboot
or not reboot
just check in with the characters now
he's never been in a sequel
I don't think so yeah
so that's why he said no to the hot tub time machine 2
it wasn't because he didn't like working with you Rob
who knows who knows time machine too. It wasn't because he didn't like working with you, Rob.
Who knows?
Who knows?
Money? Might not have been enough money?
Probably not.
You don't have to add it anymore. Nothing to add.
Greg, John is a
great guy.
John Cusack's a great fellow.
I wish he had been in the second one
because I have children that I got put through college.
Well, just to add insult to injury,
I heard he's doing Love and Mercy 2.
Oh, sweet.
That is not a movie that would have a sequel.
All right, so let's go down the line, starting with Greg.
Promote yourself.
What's going on?
Where can people see your things, listen to your things?
Well, it's a podcast base.
I'll say FitzDawg Radio is the podcast.
Please check that out twice a week.
And I got some tour dates coming up on FitzDawg.com, San Antonio, Texas,
and I don't know, other places around the country. Where are you playing in San Antonio?
The River Center
Improv. Oh, okay. Yeah.
I mean, I think the same people own both of the big
clubs there. They do. So it doesn't really matter.
And most of the other ones in the country. Yeah.
Thank you so much for being here, Greg.
Thanks, Doug. I had a blast. Thank you, guys.

But you are a man of your word.
You tried to get in touch with me on Twitter.
Yeah, that's how we made this booking in the first place.
It actually is not a bad way to get in touch with me and I'm sorry I was traveling I was thrilled
that I was able to get in touch with you through Twitter I thought it worked out
great let's let's break it down real quick no it's not bad hey why are you
doing that happen if he didn't show up? Who would have been the third person?
I had a person standing by to be the third guest on the show
who was relieved when he found out he didn't have to do it.
Oh, Todd Glass.
He would have been great on the show.
He really is the person I know
that knows the least about movies.
For sure.
But I wrote to you on Twitter.
Dude, and your name on twitter is your name r-o-b-c-r-c-o-r-d-d-r-y yeah i wrote dude you want to come back on doug loves movies sometime

i'm not really free until june 29th that's exactly what happened and then you wrote, I'm not really free until June 29th. That's exactly what happened. And then I wrote back June 30th at 9 o'clock at Meltdown Comics.
And that was 23 days ago.
But I agreed to that.
And you wrote back, yeah, see you then.

Hmm, tonight, the whole deal.
I did not respond to any of these and I'm sorry.
It's okay, I just wanted to remind you

Yeah.
Congratulations, Darcy, There's your stuff.
And give her her backpack back. She needs that.
And does this Colin Bruges have a shithead on the back of it?
Oh, no.
No? You didn't put one on there?
Do you want to tell me, or do you want to write something down?
You don't have a shithead?
There's got to be somebody or something that you're not happy about.
Here, come write it down.
It's a consolation prize if you lose.
I have to call whoever he writes down a shithead as the closing line of the show.
Greg's like, oh, like he's never been of the show. Greg's like, oh.
Like he's never been on the show before.
Oh, yeah, that's what happens.
All right, one more time for all of my guests,
Rob Corddry, Tony Thaxton, and Greg Fitzsimmons.
And as always,
Strongman Films is a shithead.
Well, that's
some personal shit.
And forgetting
the shithead is a shithead.
