Starting point is 00:00:00 Doug Loves Movies! Saturday night, I did two stand-up shows at Helium in Portland, Oregon with Graham Elwood. Thank you to everyone who came out. Great crowds in Portland. We played the Leonard Moulton game. Graham against audience members at the end of the first show. And at the end of the second show, Sam the Ma'am Levine, a.k.a. Little Wolverine, went head-to-head against Graham on behalf of two lucky audience members with cool name tags. I'll play the audio from both at the end of this mini boner.
Starting point is 00:00:52 The reason I'm in Boston is because I'm doing a show tonight at Northeastern. It's students only, so don't worry about it. Blackman Auditorium, if you are a student, but if you're not a student, I'll be back in Boston for a show at Brighton Music Hall on Sunday, May 19th. And I'll be at Feet Hall in Providence on Saturday, May 18th. Now it's time for Tweet Relief, tweets about movies. At Randy Lawson, R-A-N-D-I Lawson tweeted, A good day to die hard boiled eggs.
Starting point is 00:01:26 Hashtag Easter. This has been Tweet Relief, Easter edition, tweets about eggs. On the flights from Portland to Boston, I watched parts of Lincoln and Wreck-It Ralph, and a hilarious ep of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, the cast of which I would still like to get as guests on this podcast. So if you know them, still like to get as guests on this podcast. So if you know them, tell them to get in touch. And I'll be in Philly.

Hey, everybody. We're at the Helium Comedy Club for the 7.30 show on, what is the date, Graham? Saturday,
Starting point is 00:02:46 May 30th. It's great to be here. See all the May flowers. And all the other boats with the pole grills that go by.
Starting point is 00:03:02 I got thrown off by it. We had a problem in the crowd. What did you say, ma'am? I said, what if you already ate your name tag? What if you already ate your name tag? Well, I think you know what if you already ate your name tag. It's inside you, and we cannot see it anymore. So now you don't have a name tag.
Starting point is 00:03:22 You ate it. I ate it. I ate it on the'm not that show. Oh, you were here at the last show, and you brought the Rice Krispie treats with bacon in it? Yes, she did. Yes, she did? What kind of weirdo speaks of themselves?
Starting point is 00:03:39 Oh, she did it. Oh, he's gonna win today. Yeah, because the woman that brought the Rice Krispie thing seemed very nice and docile. Who's this weird bird? This is her friend. This is her friend that's now two shows into the day. And has had her four champagne cocktails. What if she ate her name tag?
Starting point is 00:04:04 What? Yeah. She's like a pro name tag? What? Yeah. She's like a pro athlete speaking in the third person. So I'm going to be the best grandma I can be tonight. Yeah, yeah, yeah. When Doug Benson
Starting point is 00:04:14 goes out on the court, Doug Benson eats some name tag. I don't know why I'm bothered to write jokes. Just start talking and see what stupid shit comes out. Come on. Come on. Come on. Graham, pick somebody to play against. Is need a contestant. Some people brought name tags. Other people just thought it was a stand-up comedy show. Oh my god. We got a couple of good ones up front that we met after the first
Starting point is 00:04:58 show. And we just need somebody. Yes. You can scribble it on a piece of paper. Yeah, she's got one. She made one real fast. Did a guy just say, I love you, and you just threw it right back? You don't want to get to know him first? No, I'm going to put my corndog in the butt. I keep meaning to say that in my set. I call it back to corndog in the butt, and I keep forgetting. And it would fit perfect in the stuff-in-your-asshole section that I do.
Starting point is 00:05:30 It would fit in great. Alright, just squeeze it right in there. Rosebud! Yeah! Come on up here! Come on up here! Let's see. Yeah, come on up here. Come on up here. She created a Rosebud sled. And she came up, she goes, and she goes, I bought your Palm Street shirt last time I was here. It's my most favorite shirt.
Starting point is 00:05:54 But she didn't wear it tonight. And her name is Rose Lynn. Yeah, okay. So forget about the bud. I never thought I'd say this. Forget about the bud. It's just Rosalind. I'm glad she's laughing harder than anyone at that.
Starting point is 00:06:11 Because that's all. She made it out of a bed Xbox. So that's really... Portland. That's Portland. We're using recycled matches. All of our name tags are made from things that already existed.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Mine is a chicken. That seems against the grain of a whole Portland attitude that you'd kill a chicken and make it a name tag. Yeah, but it's locally grown. And my name is Charles. Doesn't make any sense. doesn't make any sense. It doesn't make any sense.
Starting point is 00:06:47 This is the best May Day I've ever had. I can't wait to get off this sinking boat. Is this really uncomfortable for you? Yeah. You're really nervous? All right. Why don't I stand here more creepy? People hate public speaking enough as it is.
Starting point is 00:07:04 They don't need someone hovering over them being creepy. I love you, Lick-Duck. I love you, Lick-Duck. I love you, Lick-Duck. You like corn dogs? You're going to love them when I cook them. You're going to love them when I cook them. I mean, hold them.
Starting point is 00:07:22 That's what I call my butthole. My corn dog is warm. Seriously, it's on Wikipedia. Look it up. It doesn't warm it as much as it just maintains it. It's your butthole as a corn dog koozie.
Starting point is 00:07:52 Oh, Jesus. Welcome back to Two guys making a lady uncomfortable On stage Lawsuit is about to happen Okay Rosalind This is just between Rosalind. This is just between Rosalind and Graham. She gets to pick a category, and they'll duke it out, and if she wins,
Starting point is 00:08:13 she's going to get all three of those fabulous prizes. She just gestured like she was on Price is Right. This is no Plinko, though. This takes some actual skill. You get to pick between the following categories. Rosalyn, would you like Two's Company, Three's a Cloud Atlas? I almost said crowd.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Cloud Atlas, and that's a movie where someone plays multiple roles. Or would you like a category called Are We There Niet? And that's movies that are set in Russia. Or
Starting point is 00:08:56 Are you good at this or bad at this? She gave the universal symbol for homosexual. You're good at this, huh? You didn't tell me so, Amy. Oh, I loaded up a bunch of really hard categories, so I apologize. Oh, this one's not too bad. Category Jeopardy, movies with a question mark in the title. Movies with a question mark, or one of those other two things.
Starting point is 00:09:40 The first one was where an actor plays multiple characters in a movie. Yeah. Oh, you want that one. Okay. Yeah, the Cloud Atlas thing. All right. This movie is from 1996. Don't.
Starting point is 00:09:53 If you know it, don't say anything. If you don't know it, don't say anything. Don't even guess. I'm doing it. Two and a half stars from Leonard Maltin on his movie review app. He called this movie an overly self-satisfied spoof from 1986. And he also...

Starting point is 00:10:47 Put the lotion in the bucket. Oh, here is that great good wrapper. It puts on the lotion or gets the hose again. I will have to be right here. I'm sorry.

Sam included a copy of The Passion of the Christ. A DVD, not Blu--ray because you are a Jew. That's horrible. It's a horrible thing to say, but you do understand.
Starting point is 00:17:14 That's why you picked this as a prize. Yes. As a Jewish man. You thought it would be funny. And then you got somebody special to sign it. I did. I caught him over on 9th Avenue. Might have been just a long-haired guy, but go ahead.
Starting point is 00:17:29 Dude, it's Jesus Christ. I had no idea. You know, it's like 9th. There's a lot of... There's a lot of... There's a lot of JC impersonators in these parts. I don't know if you got the real one. It was good enough to sign it for you guys tonight. Yeah. He wrote,

Starting point is 00:18:48 Respects hospitality. You don't pee on hospitality. That's my point. So that cocktail represents hospitality? Ladies and gentlemen, here's a glass of hospitality. It's the line from a movie. Seven people got it. Troll 2. Troll 2.

Thanks tonight for this final stand-up show here. Sam and Graham are each going to pick a name tag,

And it's a computer computer with an iPad and a podcast. It's Pirate Radio, ladies and gentlemen. It's not his words. There's a quote from Len Moulton on there.
Starting point is 00:20:51 And it says, Wet, wild, and weed-thotten! Yeah, I wasn't going to say it out loud. And it's a tribute to Len Moulton, Leonard's equal twin. Yeah, he doesn't like to be called that. It's not like you can call him Len. Okay. But when he's not around, I call him Len. It's affectionate though. You're a four star.
Starting point is 00:21:10 You never go full Wee-Tongue. That's from the movie. I don't know. It's just a reference. Like ever since I saw Django, I just throw the N word around and go, it's from a movie. That's a mystery. I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:21:18 I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don the N word around and go, it's from a movie. It's from a mystery movie.

Sam Hugo. Oh! So typically he's expecting me to go, no, Brad Hugo, but I'll go. Sure. All right. I'm going to make it tough on you guys.
Starting point is 00:21:55 Okay. These categories are not going to be easy. Oh yeah, that's right. Yeah. Tough, tough. Would you like Sam Levine Yes.

Starting point is 00:23:12 Okay. 1989. Leonard calls this movie utterly stupid. And then the last line of the review is, but this film is hopeless. Oh, utterly stupid and hopeless. Yeah, and Ralph Macchio is in it. And he lists seven names.
Starting point is 00:23:43 How many names do you think it would take you to discern the title? Sam. There's a guy in the back, what? I'm just a stoner who wanted to hear jokes. Negative two names. Oh, shit. Sam came to play. And Graham came to pay.
Starting point is 00:24:08 Because that's a tough position to be in. Shit, alright. Name that movie, Samuel. I saw this in Fierce in 1989. I believe that would be The Karate Kid Part 3 starring the aforementioned Ralph Macchio and Nuri Yuki past Morita. Yes! Sam, I hate you. And that is correct!
Starting point is 00:24:40 Ahhh! That was great! What did you win? Who was 87? The first one was 84? 84, yeah. Alright. That was ridiculous.
