Starting point is 00:00:00 Doug hates candy wrappers, screaming babies, 50 C's with 50 azir popcorn kernels in his teeth. There's still not one that he won't see, because Doug loves movies. Hey, everybody. My name is Doug, and I love movies. And I love movies so much. This is day four now of me doing Doug Loves Movies.
Starting point is 00:00:39 And just now, hearing the theme song backstage, it was such a weird feeling, like, am I just going to do one every day from now on? But no, I will take a day off tomorrow and for a few days after that but for right now this is douglas movies coming to you from the ucb theater in los angeles on tuesday september 6th two oceans 11 thank you to at anthony dumel like like the actor that's in Life As We Know It and other shit.

Starting point is 00:02:28 and they're going to be available at Earwolf.com for like nine bucks for all three. And if you guys, whether you're fans of comedy bang bang or not, I think if you're in the UCB theater, you know that Paul F. Tompkins and Andy Daly playing characters on every one of those episodes
Starting point is 00:02:43 is fucking amazing. It's like, the one I was on, I was just sitting there watching those two guys. I think I was on even the best one, but it wasn't because of me. It was because those guys were so hilarious. I also had a great time at Helium in Philly last Thursday. I'll definitely be back there sometime
Starting point is 00:02:59 to tape another podcast. The next Benson Interruption taping in L.A. will be on Monday, September 12th at Largo. And I'll be playing Leonard Mullen game with audience members at my stand-up show September 9th at the Orpheum in Sioux Falls, September 10th at the Rialto in Tucson, and at
Starting point is 00:03:15 Nietzsche's in Buffalo, Buffalo, New York, September 14th. The Help is still the number one movie in America. My guest tonight... I'm just not going to touch it anymore. I'm just not going... I'm not going
Starting point is 00:03:31 to touch The Help, unlike... Unlike Dominique Strauss-Kahn. Bam! At least that's a different race I was going after there, and I believe that guy is a total creep and he should be in jail. But whatever.
Starting point is 00:03:50 My guests tonight have all been on the show before and listeners seem to like all of them. I know I do. Please welcome to the stage my friends Mike Kaplan, Adam Scott, and TJ Miller. Hello I like how you took a second To remember that guy's name Who touched the help Because it is a hard name to pronounce Well also they keep calling him DSK
Starting point is 00:04:20 And I thought I'd screw that up I thought I'd be like Like a murderer ASQ What's that? Isn't there the BTK killer It sounds like Oh BTK killer I'd screw that up. I thought I'd be like ASQ. What's that? Isn't there the BTK killer? Oh, BTK killer. I never got that right.
Starting point is 00:04:29 I ordered that so many times at Burger King. And it got me right off the top. So yeah, let's talk about the... We are missing a guest again. The elephant in the room. Mr. Scott. The elephant not in the room. Mr. Scott. The elephant not in the room. Right.
Starting point is 00:04:47 Yeah, Adam Scott, of course, is working on Parks and Rec, and it's a great show. I love it. The rest of us are professionals. But this is one of those days where apparently he was shooting late, and he hasn't texted me,
Starting point is 00:05:01 so I don't know if that means he's on his way or he's not on his way. He slowly dug books, more and more busy, famous people, and becomes further and further friends from them. So it's just like, tonight I have three guests. It's Martin Scorsese, Elizabeth Banks, and Adam Scott. They'll all be here maybe in the next hour or two. I sent them DMs on Twitter, but I haven't heard back. in the next hour or two.
Starting point is 00:05:23 I sent him DMs on Twitter, but I haven't heard back. But as long as I'm only missing one guest, we know that Jordan is here and ready to play. Yeah, so that's my punch tonight is if Adam Scott doesn't get here at Leonard Moulton game time,
Starting point is 00:05:38 you gotta step up again, Jordan. Yeah. You're gonna be sitting on the other end this time. You're not gonna be right next to me for me to coddle you like the last time. It was fun.
Starting point is 00:05:49 Ball in hand. Yeah, he's got the ball always. There's people, there was a guy, I think, at Bubbershoot that had a ball and he'd written not Jordan on it. That's a weird guy in Jordan's life. You know, you have a guy somewhere in Seattle that's like, fuck, no, I'm not.
Starting point is 00:06:10 Not since Pang and Roozie have there been characters on this podcast from the audience that have really captured America's heart. So let me just ask you guys what I was going to ask Adam. First of all, what was it like working with T.J. Miller and our idiot brother? Terrible. He wouldn't stop talking about his stupid beard and how he was in that film Yogi Bear Who Cares. I had a different experience. Mike Kaplan, everybody.
Starting point is 00:06:40 Hello. Hi. I just wanted to make sure to say things because last time I was here, little people, or as I call them, littler people, talked a lot more than... Yeah, you were on with Brad and Wee Man. Yes. Two of the preeminent small people in the world of entertainment. I'm just big enough to not be them, I think.
Starting point is 00:07:02 And you witnessed a, I think there was a ball punch at one point during their episode. Absolutely. Those guys haven't been back on but I'm going to have them on again someday but it's nice to have you under power. But in a trench coat on top of each other. Yes, you have to pretend to be a regular sized
Starting point is 00:07:19 That's not the right expression. Pretend to be normal yeah that's they're regular and we're super or extra yeah how does that mean yeah we got super sized
Starting point is 00:07:39 they didn't I feel like they get everyone's making fun of them because they can't fight back I think that's so hard. A Wee Man can fight back. He will punch you in the balls. Yeah. Don't let him listen to this. I don't think he's going to listen to this.
Starting point is 00:07:52 I don't think we have control over not having him do that. If you guys ever see Wee Man, anybody in here, let him know to not listen to September 6th. Whoever is listening that is constantly around Wee Man. Prevent him. He's a famous guy. to not listen to September 6th. Whoever is listening that is constantly around Wee Man. Somebody. Prevent him. He's a famous guy. Yeah, there might be somebody who likes this and Wee Man
Starting point is 00:08:10 and is friends with Wee Man. That's a possibility. Not Jordan from Seattle. And is really close enough friends with him to be around all the time. I'm going to follow through on this one. I'll just wait and see if anybody comes to me and says,
Starting point is 00:08:21 hey, Wee Man doesn't like what you guys are saying. What if it's me just hunched down any trench coat no i like i like that following through for you is waiting for somebody to talk to you yeah listen i'm gonna do the follow-through on this i'm gonna do nothing and wait and see if somebody comes to me with i'm not gonna shut my ears forever following through is just not changing your position. I'm going to follow through with what I'm thinking about.
Starting point is 00:08:49 If people come up to you that you don't know, you're not going to be like, get away, don't talk to me about Wee Man, please. Yeah, if you start talking to me about Wee Man, it's going to ruin it because I really thought it would go nowhere. Our Idiot Brother is that name of that movie that you were in with Adam Scott, TJ. Yes. Congratulations.
Starting point is 00:09:06 First of all, it should have been called My Three Bitch Sisters. Because he was a pretty nice, cool dude. Let's hope Elizabeth Banks doesn't hear that. It's just the characters they play. They're lovely people, probably, maybe. No, not really. Those three bitches. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:21 My Three Bitches. Maybe we call them My Three Sister Bitches. Whatever. My three bitches. We call my three sister bitches. Whatever. My point is just that they're calling him an idiot right there in the title and he's the nicest character in the movie. Well, they all think that he's an idiot because he's so optimistic
Starting point is 00:09:37 and believes in the good in people. How many people have seen it here at the live show? Yay! So for the rest of you guys... okay so for the rest of you guys for the rest of you guys tj would like to reenact the trailer in a world where one man are you in the trailer idiot what i'm just doing the voice in the world what about your beard in that movie was that glued was glued on. I tried to grow a real beard. And that's just not your thing? No, it is my thing.
Starting point is 00:10:09 I grew it, but it wasn't long enough. And if you look at it, it really does look like my real beard if they had just waited three or four more days. But they didn't, so they shaved it off and put on just a slightly bigger version of my current beard. Do you know how much it costs to wait a day for you to grow a beard?
Starting point is 00:10:26 They would have to pay... Tens of thousands. More money than you and I will make in the next ten years. I could make... It costs $500,000 to wait two days. Oh, I can't do that. Me neither.
Starting point is 00:10:38 Maybe there's other scenes they could shoot. I couldn't do it. We were at the very end. We were at the end of the show. Oh, so you only worked a few days on it? No, yeah, yeah. All in one clump? Yeah, I worked a clump of it, about a week of it.
Starting point is 00:10:51 It was upstate in New York. It was very, very hot. And we were on an actual organic farm where the guys, you know, the guy grew pot and stuff. It was so funny. Because I'm not a very good actor, so I've never gone up up and like hung out with a person and be like I'm going to study your mannerisms and
Starting point is 00:11:07 become you and a character I don't do that I'm just like hey everybody but this guy was like the character he was just like this kind of bearded guy who just smoked weed and knew everything about farming and like tended to chickens and shit and I would hang out
Starting point is 00:11:23 with him and be like yep yep, I'm you. And he'd look at me and he'd be like, I'm so high, you're me. Was his beard real? His beard was real. They did not make him put on a fake beard. It would be so weird if they did. They're like, listen, thank you for letting us
Starting point is 00:11:40 use your farm. Sit down for a second. You got a great beard. We're gonna shave it. We need it to be just a little bit longer. Can TJ use your farm. Sit down for a second. You got a great beard. We're going to shave it. We need it to be just a little bit longer. Can TJ use your beard? That would be terrible. He wasn't a very hygienic man. Also, is that what an
Starting point is 00:11:55 organic farm means? Is that they grow pot all the time? Certainly helps. Did the organic farm smell worse than a regular farm? No, I mean, it smelled about the same. It smelled, you know, farmy, shitty. Not so much shit. More farm. More that specific smell.
Starting point is 00:12:14 So the farm smelled like what it was. Yeah. Farm. And not like something that you find at one. Right, exactly. It smelled like the entirety of what it smelled like. It wasn't just a component It was not greater than the sum of its parts It was exactly itself
Starting point is 00:12:31 How many times a week do you get a farm conversation That turns into a math problem? I'll tell you about my life About once or twice a week TJ, did you just do Was that me? Were you pretending to be me? I don't think I was pretending to be anybody.
Starting point is 00:12:46 Sometimes the older people come out to play. Is that too weird? Yeah. Way too weird. I knew that you definitely weren't me anymore when you did that. All right, well, I'm back. So let's talk about...
Starting point is 00:13:01 Left for a little while there. But Mike, the news just came out. Eddie Murphy's hosting the next Oscar. Left for a little while there. Mike, the news just came out. Eddie Murphy's hosting the next Oscars. Yes. Do you have any jokes on it yet? Oh, no. I don't do that.
Starting point is 00:13:17 I mean, unless you want me to. That's not really your style, right? No, I write things. All the jokes that I'm writing are about stuff that happened 50 years ago, but seem like they could have happened recently. jokes that I'm writing are about stuff that happened like 50 years ago but seemed like they could have happened recently oh so you could say like Eddie Murphy's gonna star in 48 hours that kind of thing yeah that's exactly that wasn't 50 years ago what are you talking about from 50 years ago not to get off the subject of movies but oh I just talked about movies that came out 50
Starting point is 00:13:42 years ago and no I mean I actually I don't I talk talked about movies that came out 50 years ago and no I mean I actually I don't I talk more about things that are going on in my head now instead of things that are going on in the world around me but you make references oh I mean certainly I think that there's a world around me that I interact with yeah yeah so yeah I refer to those as well but uh but do you think Eddie Murphy's a good choice for that yeah i mean if brett ratner is a good choice was he also up for hosting the authors he's directing it yeah he's directing it and the story is that eddie murphy's the only person that he submitted
Starting point is 00:14:19 as being the host and that eddie murphy then said yes and so they're doing it. The bank heist, tower heist, formerly Trump heist, it looks good to me. Eddie Murphy looks like he's funny in it. Could be a return to form. It was a very good script. It was one of those scripts that bounced around for a while as a top ten script. I met with Ratner
Starting point is 00:14:39 about that script. He is amazing. Have you met him? Now, maybe we have a different take on the word amazing. Like in what about him is amazing specifically. No, I have not met him. Just like going to his home and being around him is crazy. Because he's like a ball of energy.
Starting point is 00:15:03 He's like a huge, giant, insane presence. The second time he used crazy and insane instead of amazing. So, yeah. I think crazy is amazing. Well, that's the thing. Everything that you like, you describe with words that someone might misconstrue. You know what I mean? You have a lot of the kind of hip-hop lingo at your disposal. I do have it at my disposal.
Starting point is 00:15:24 That is often the opposite. You have your own actual hip-hop lingo at your disposal. I do have it at my disposal. That is often the opposite. Like, you have your own actual hip-hop record coming out. I do. I have a... Well, it's hip-hop, pop, and folk music. Finally.
Starting point is 00:15:36 Yeah. Well, they're not... It's not like a fusion, but there's sort of samplings of each genre. And there's also some audio sketches on it. Yeah, the extended play EP.
Starting point is 00:15:46 Have you guys heard about it or no? Did anyone hear about it? Not really? I'm telling you now, there are a few people who heard about it. It's coming out September 13th. You can pre-order it on Amazon. It's 41 tracks. It's a debut 41 track album. I thought you were going to say $41.
Starting point is 00:16:02 No, no. It's only $9. It's a dollar a track. It's 41 tracks. You normally have a dollar a track. And when you say 41 tracks, though, I know one of those is me talking for like 20 seconds. This is it. There it is. There it is.
Starting point is 00:16:15 Thank you. I'm giving away, for reals, the first. I don't even have one. I'm giving away the first copy of it to someone in the audience. It's going to have, they'll see all the cover art of me. Is this the first time you're seeing a physical copy of it? Yeah, I've never seen a physical copy of it before. This is an exciting moment.
Starting point is 00:16:33 It is really exciting. It's so weird that I ever made it. Yeah, pull the little booklet out. Let's see who you thanked. Wow, there really are 41 tracks. 41 tracks. And a bitch ain't one. No, no, actually track 38 is a bitch.
Starting point is 00:16:47 A bitch is one of the tracks, yeah. There we go. Now, there's such things as Appleton, which is a track about how Appleton is the hardest city in Wisconsin. Track 10 is Dr. Doherty, which is about my eye surgeon here in Los Angeles. Balsa 10 is Dr. Doherty, which is about my eye surgeon here in Los Angeles.
Starting point is 00:17:08 Balsa Wood is one. Balsa Wood is the final track. What's that about? Is that about Balsa Wood? You nailed it on the head. It's the hardest wood. Sad around, but I have, you know,
Starting point is 00:17:20 guest stars Bo Burnham, Ugly Duckling, which is a great hip-hop group. Doug Benson is in it. he has a special appearance what's my track number track number 14 and it truly is i would say it is one of the funniest parts of the entire album because there's there's some audio sketches and those are improvised and he he improvised he just came in and he's very particular so he's like i i just want to come in i to do this god damn thing and then leave and I was like absolutely sir
Starting point is 00:17:47 that's particular? other people are like what I want to do is I want to come by stick around for a few days maybe do a thing and he came in and he improvised one like a voicemail and it was so funny
Starting point is 00:18:02 and we were like I think that's it do you want to do another one? He's like, yeah, just let me do one more and then he improvised something twice as funny as the thing
Starting point is 00:18:09 he just improvised and it was almost like easy. He just might as well have thrown down the mic and been like, bitch, and then left
Starting point is 00:18:16 because it was amazing. So that's really, really funny. That was the track that a bitch was on. Yes. Don't listen to track 14 for like a few months
Starting point is 00:18:24 because after that buildup it's certainly going to be disappointing. a few months, because after that build-up, it's certainly going to be disappointing. It's awesome. I really like it. But I encourage people to buy the whole album, because I lost a lot of money making it, because I'm not a musician and I don't know why I did it. To be honest with you. But I did lose an immense amount of
Starting point is 00:18:40 money making it. Comedy Central was like, here's this money. And I was like, good. Those cover the first three tracks because it's all real music produced by this really great guy in Chicago who works at Second City, Jesse Case. And it's got some great stuff. Track 15, Cloverfield Secrets.
Starting point is 00:18:57 Where I tell a series of Cloverfield secrets from the film. Now we're back to movies. Can you give us an example? I mean, you gotta buy the album, but let me just say I explain how the Togarot is. Let's say I'm not interested in actually knowing any of the secrets. The Togarot is satellite. I explain that. Are they the kind
Starting point is 00:19:14 of secrets that ruin it for everybody? For Cloverfield? Yeah. No, one of them is about how I'd like to be better friends with Mike Vogel. Slide that down here. There it is. There it is, everybody everybody sorry to talk about it so much but I hope you guys like it somebody's gonna win it
Starting point is 00:19:27 and what's it called the extended play extended play EP that's funny because extended play is what EP stands for yeah we thought about having a sticker that
Starting point is 00:19:35 said that in the front but we figured people got it I don't think everyone gets it what do you guys think that's why I shared you got it
Starting point is 00:19:42 he's like 30 for deep that guy's everyone, so. He's here to represent. Have you guys been to the movies lately? Yes. I have. I saw 30 Minutes or Less. That's another weird audience choice.
Starting point is 00:20:01 What did happen? Somebody was like, ugh. Like somebody had been like, hold your breath just a little bit until somebody talks about 30 minutes or less. And she was like, my breath escapes me finally.
Starting point is 00:20:16 That was the air she had breathed into laugh and it never came out. Did you guys see it? You liked it? I didn't see it. I saw it. I'm friends with some of those dudes and I enjoyed seeing them. I enjoyed seeing Nick with a flamethrower. Yeah, I thought Swordsman was great.
Starting point is 00:20:35 I just didn't know. I thought the movie didn't really click. I didn't love the movie. But you're friends with him. Yeah, I'm friends with Nick. I thought he was very funny and I've met Danny McBride. I think he's very nice. Do you stop being with people? Yeah, I'm friends with Nick. I thought he was very funny. And I've met Danny McBride. I think he's very nice. Do you stop being with people when they stop being funny? Do I stop what?
Starting point is 00:20:50 Do you stop being friends with people? Yeah, for sure. Okay. Definitely. Are we friends? What's that? Not anymore. That was it right there.
Starting point is 00:21:00 What have you seen, Mike? I just saw Columbiana. Ooh. Ooh. I was so excited about that from the trailer, and then all the wind got knocked out of my sails with the terrible reviews.
Starting point is 00:21:11 I didn't get tricked by the trailer. I saw the trailer and I was like, this will probably be bad, and then the reviews came out and they were like, even worse, and I was like, okay, now it's time to go see it. It's a weird sort of system. If you expect something to be it's time to go see it. It's a weird sort of system. If you expect something to be the worst and you go see it,
Starting point is 00:21:31 then it'll mostly be better because only one thing can be the worst. I just didn't want to be like sitting there by myself. That's dropping knowledge. Oh, hey, there he is. Get on up here. Oh, you made it. You old pile of tricks. Why have you left me? Why did you do this? Why would you say that? Jordan's breathing a sigh of relief over there he was going to have to fill in for you
Starting point is 00:21:54 if you didn't make it thanks for rushing over from the set yeah sure I was just driving from there and I thought you know what would be a cool experience in this weather is to roll down all of the windows in the car and drive on the freeway?
Starting point is 00:22:12 And that's what I did, and it wasn't that great. What about it was different than what you had anticipated? Did a bird fly in? He thought his hair would look different when he got here. I thought my hair would look a lot cooler. Passive motivation. For people at home, it looks real cool. But it also looks like all the windows are down.
Starting point is 00:22:36 Yeah. This is a true story. I'm Mike. Hello. Hey, Mike. Oh, you guys haven't met before. Adam Scott, Mike Kaplan. I really like the things that you've done that I've seen.
Starting point is 00:22:45 I like the things you're doing right now. Thank you. You know, I do. You were telling me. And I like greetings on podcasts. I like seeing people meet on a podcast. Listeners at home, this is what it sounds like to meet someone for the first time. Practice yours for new strangers.
Starting point is 00:23:04 New strangers, everybody. Just new strangers. New strangers, everybody. Just new strangers. I gotcha. Are we friends again? I've known you for a long time and you always feel like a stranger. It's true.
Starting point is 00:23:16 We never hang out on purpose. We need to. Yeah. Then we can become friends. Yeah. It was 20 minutes of this, Adam, before you got here. Somehow we can become friends. Yeah. It was 20 minutes of this, Adam, before you got here.
Starting point is 00:23:26 But somehow we're back to it already. So, have you seen Columbiana? That's what we were talking about when you came in. No, is it like a lame version of Hannah? It's like Hannah if she were an adult and you were allowed to find her hot.
Starting point is 00:23:41 I thought it... Because that girl who played Hannah, she's got some lovely bones. All right. Because you're clever doesn't mean you can be a pedophile. I'm going to have to atonement for that one. Her whole goddamn filmography. Boom, boom, and pow.
Starting point is 00:24:08 I'm probably being really cocky about the most useless skill. I said all of the words and puns that were her movies. Take that, bitch. Ah, Doug, I could never be your woman. That's
Starting point is 00:24:23 another one of her movies. What? Yeah, I could never be your woman. That's another one of our movies. What? Yeah, I could never be your woman. Thank you very much. Yes, it is. Wow. Which you saw. She just disappeared after she said that. That was so weird.
Starting point is 00:24:37 You're right, Adam. No one will prove it. But you saw that movie because Paul Rudd is in it. Yeah, well, it was on... Opposite Michelle Pfeiffer. It was on TV recently, so I saw it. Yeah, yeah. And that girl is in it.
Starting point is 00:24:53 She's the little girl in it. She was like a, you know, a zygote in it. She was very young. Meaning she was really young. Yeah. Yeah, I didn't recognize her because I, you know, she was... What would the more offensive version of Zygo mean? Like people were unclear.
Starting point is 00:25:09 Zyga. Sounds like a racial slur when you do it. That would be the more offensive version of Zyga. All you did to make it offensive was just toss it off. He looked around. Now like a weird version of the newlywed game, without TJ saying anything, I'm going to ask,
Starting point is 00:25:29 earlier I asked TJ what he would say, you would say about working with him on Our Idiot Brother. So now tell us what your thoughts about working with TJ and we'll see if they match up. Well, we didn't work together. See, TJ did not say that.
Starting point is 00:25:48 That's a lot. This is exactly what happens on the Newlywed Game. Okay, you guys, it's true. It was Chris Pat and a beard. I wasn't even in Our Idiot Brother. But you don't have any scenes together. No. Because he's out at the shit farm,
Starting point is 00:26:04 and you never go out there for any reason. What did you say I would say? Just that I was difficult to work with. Complaining about his beard, his glue-on beard. And then also that I would assert that I had worked with you and I hadn't.
Starting point is 00:26:21 I said that you would say that too. I would never say that he was telling us about when you guys did Piranha 3D together yeah
Starting point is 00:26:29 what a blast that was it's so weird it seems like you were in that movie why does it seem like you were in that movie
Starting point is 00:26:37 it was just sort of my whole aesthetic you know TJ's a 3D guy yeah and of course he was in
Starting point is 00:26:44 Carpoolers With Jerry O'Connell So you've seen them together Yeah Alright I don't know That you've seen us together That seems weird
Starting point is 00:26:53 Also Columbiana The girl Isn't a girl For a while In the movie too So if you are a pedophile You can enjoy that
Starting point is 00:26:59 You mean Wait She's little for a while Yeah yeah yeah And then she grows up into Zoe Saldana. Correct. That's what I was just going to say, is that I wanted to go see that because she's hot,
Starting point is 00:27:12 and I want to see a hot girl kicking people in the face. Oh, yeah. But I'd end up going alone and sitting amongst a bunch of other dudes that have the same agenda, and then it just gets creepy. I went with a guy. Nice. Did you have that extra seat in between you?
Starting point is 00:27:28 You know, I've never done that in my life, but we went, it was another comedian, Nate Bargetzi, do you know him? Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:27:36 Nate Bargetzi. I want to meet him on this podcast. We were in, we were both performing in Minneapolis. We met at the Mall of America where he was performing
Starting point is 00:27:44 and then we went to the movie theater there. We went into the theater. It was mostly empty. We sat in a row. And I was like, oh, do you want me to move over one more? Because I wanted him to have the option of being further into the middle. And he was like, yeah, why don't we do that? And I moved over one more.
Starting point is 00:27:56 And then he put his stuff there and stayed one seat away. He kept the buffer seat in between, which I like sitting next to people. Plus, when you want to talk to each other with the buffer seat, you have to lean in so far that everyone sitting behind you thinks you're kissing. Yeah. So it totally negates the whole point. And when you're kissing, it looks like you're talking.
Starting point is 00:28:18 The opposite problem. All right, we've got to play the Leonard Maltin game, you guys. We're way behind schedule. We've got to play the Leonard Maltin game, you guys. We're way behind schedule. We've got to get on this. So could you all, gentlemen, please pick a name tag you'd like to play for and bring it back to your seat. You can go ahead and stand up. It'll be the first step.
Starting point is 00:28:36 I feel like I haven't earned this. Actually walk over there and take something from somebody? Yeah, go get it. I always pick ones from the very front. So I'm going to go to the back and pick one. All right. Adam's going to the back and pick one. All right. Adam's going to the back, you guys. I'm going to see where Adam and Mike go
Starting point is 00:28:49 so that I can choose from a sector that has yet to be picked from. There's a Logan's Run. Is your name Logan? Awesome. I think it's got to be from over here. I took one that came with Weird Al's new album. Does he get to keep Weird Al's new album? Whoever did that?
Starting point is 00:29:02 No? Oh, then I don't pick this one. Okay. I'll do it. I like it over here. I like that one right there. He made it. His name's Tony, so he made it Tonypocalypse instead of Alpocalypse.
Starting point is 00:29:13 Did you do that on purpose? Good work. You did two posts. Underneath it's Post-It-pocalypse. It's Post-It-pocalyptic, everybody. Oh, it looks like Adam got a new iPad I got a free iPad out of the deal It's Gino with a little heart over the A
Starting point is 00:29:32 Because you know how you dot your A's Look what I got Should we go through Gino's contacts? I got the weirdest He got, is that Jeff Goldblum? It looks like him And it says I love Kevi. Kevin without the N.
Starting point is 00:29:48 So what is that? Kevi? I don't understand any of it. Is it Kevi or Kevi? It's Kevi. And so your name is I love Kevi? That's a weird name. Doesn't even have any hyphens.
Starting point is 00:30:01 I call bullshit all one word. First, middle, last name. First word first middle last name first of all loves it so Adam's playing for Gina your TJ's playing for Kevi who likes Jeff Goldblum and thought that would catch our eye and then and that's the weirdest part is it did they work I was more enticed by the fact that Jeff Goldblum looks like he's holding rubber bands that are hanging the I Love Kevvy sign. Artistically, it's very creative. If only you could see it at home.
Starting point is 00:30:29 It's breathtaking. And the winner gets all of these. Why don't you twit-tick it? And you're playing... Mike is playing for Tonypocalypse. That photo of Jeff Goldblum was taken while he was shooting Morning Glory
Starting point is 00:30:45 yeah? I didn't even know he was in Morning Glory with Harrison Ford and Diane Keaton no alright you can't see it but Adam's kind of appraising it like a piece of jewelry yeah that's Morning Glory
Starting point is 00:31:01 for sure 2009 Morning Glory. Yeah, for sure. Let me get my microphone. 2009 Morning Glory publicity. Here's what we're playing for. We're playing for Mike Kaplan's CD, Vegan Mind Meld. We're playing for new from AST Records. Baron Vaughn has a new CD called Raised by Cable. Yeah.

And of course, there's got to be a Woot Monkey involved. And also a t-shirt. It's a small-sized t-shirt, but it's the Walking Dead TV series. I got that at Comic-Con or something, somewhere. All right, so let me get this Woot Monkey into the crowd.

Starting point is 00:32:47 You know what? Did you have your picture taken for this cover right after having all the windows down? Because it's really the same look. Yeah. It's the way I get to photo shoots. I drive on the 101. Do you like the windows down? So anyway, it's Parks and Rec Season 3.
Starting point is 00:33:03 I should say it out loud into the microphone on DVD. And so that's a really awesome prize. I'm going to go ahead and get rid of all this other shit and just give that away. No, everybody gave some great stuff, and somebody's going to win it all. Either Tony, Apocalypse, Kevi, or Gina. We'll start with you. Down here on this end, Mike Kaplan. All right.
Starting point is 00:33:27 You get to pick a category. Would you like at RIPA TransZone suggested UCBs, I assume in honor of UCB Theater. What does that mean? UCBs means movies where a B or more, one or more bees. Oh, where you see the letter bees. Plays a prominent part in the plot of the movie. Not the animal bee, the letter bee.
Starting point is 00:33:54 No, the animal bee. Yeah, okay, my bad. Yeah, yeah, yeah. My bee. Do we have someone quibbling about whether it's an animal or an insect? Insects are animals. Do we have someone quibbling about whether it's an animal or an insect? Insects are animals.
Starting point is 00:34:10 Looks like you just got quibble smacked, motherfucker. Oh my God. I feel like I just watched Tree of Life again. I haven't even seen it once. Oh, don't knock over the... No, that was my fault. What a clod. Oh, jeez, TJ. Oh, fuck.
Starting point is 00:34:24 I hope I didn't fall asleep. Oh, that's a better picture. There, geez, TJ. Oh, fuck. I hope I didn't fall asleep. Oh, that's a better picture. There, now it's cute. All right, now it's her and her kid. Maybe she should have done something. Now you're getting her the sense of the book. Not so lazy. Maybe she should have just drawn on her iPad,
Starting point is 00:34:35 and maybe she should have gotten some Jeff Goldblum pictures. Gina, is that you? Yes. Is that your daughter? No, it's my niece. Your niece? What's her name? Sophia. Sophia. That her name? Sophia.
Starting point is 00:34:45 Sophia. That's Gina and Sophia. Would you like me to unlock your iPad? Hey, the last girl that had this happen. That's right. I just want you to know, should we go further? She's dead somewhere in a park. And it wasn't recreation. Go to hell! Give him hell!
Starting point is 00:35:07 TJ, you're just as good as Doug at doing things with words. And he's especially good at doing them when I have to get through this game in the remaining eight minutes. The entire game. So, take your riff gun and put it in the holster.
Starting point is 00:35:26 What are the other, What's the other choice? In theaters now or it's celebrating a birthday today, Idris Elba. Elba. I want to do in theaters now. Okay. This movie's in theaters now. Leonard doesn't give it any particular amount of stars because that's how he is.
Starting point is 00:35:41 I'm going to have to ask him about that. I think he did explain it once and it didn't make any sense to me but he writes an extra long review and he says about this one he says uh sometimes a film seems to have everything going for it and still comes up short too such is the case with this movie lumbiana it's got everything going for it. That had a lot going for it. And it also says none of this is the fault of the actors who do excellent work.
Starting point is 00:36:10 Okay. You think you know it already? Yeah. Wow. But you get nine names if you want. Okay. But you can bid
Starting point is 00:36:18 zero names and just name it if you... I'll do zero names. I mean, and not... Sorry. And not just name it.
Starting point is 00:36:24 We have to go to TJ who can either go negative names or say name it. Also thanks for clapping. I've not done anything. It's pretty impressive. If they're clapping
Starting point is 00:36:34 bravado it's courageous. I'm going to say name that movie. Alright what is it? The Debt. That's correct. That's correct.
Starting point is 00:36:42 You got it. Palomiram. That's correct. Whoa! You got it. Calamirum. Nicely done. Mike Kaplan. Nate Bargetzi and I considered going to see that, and then I looked up what people said about it. I said it had everything going for it. They were like, these actors are great,
Starting point is 00:37:01 but you're not going to like this movie. Let's go see the hotter version, Columbiana. That's what we did. All right. Well, that worked out great for you. See, you got one point because you knew about a movie
Starting point is 00:37:13 that was in theaters now. And TJ's challenged you, so now we're going to start with Adam. I'm just glad that wasn't a review for our idiot brother. Oh, yeah, that would be really bad if we had to guess our own movie and it was like zero stars, fuck these guys.
Starting point is 00:37:29 Specifically. He doesn't do star ratings for your curtain. TJ doesn't listen. All right, so your three categories that you get to pick between Adam Scott would be summer blockbusters. Those are blockbusters that came out
Starting point is 00:37:45 in the summer. Hold Me, which is movies that have a hostage situation. And at the Bobby Lester suggested faux real,
Starting point is 00:37:56 faux F-A-U-X. So it's movies that are based on actual things that happened. I'll take summer blockbusters. All right. This summer blockbuster Blockbusters. All right. This Summer Blockbuster is from 1986.
Starting point is 00:38:08 Leonard Maltin gives it two and a half stars. He says about this movie that one character who's not the lead steals the show, and he also says that the movie won an Oscar for best song from 1986 two and a half stars there's 13 names how many names you think you can get it in Adam I'll say seven all right now we go to TJ because we switch the order each time. It's very confusing. I'll say name that movie. How many names does he get? Seven.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Out of 13? All right. Let me just tell you that he's probably going to get it. But let's play it and see what happens. You want the clues again, Adam? No. Okay, here we go. Adrian Pasdar, Meg Ryan, James Tolkien, Tim Robbins, Rick Rosovich, Barry Tubb.
Starting point is 00:39:17 Big Rick Rosovich fan over there. Oh! Oh! He was so good as the fireman in Roxanne. I think that's that guy. Anyway. Anyway, those are your six names, I think. He gets one more.
Starting point is 00:39:34 Oh, one more. Damn it. John Stockwell. This is a summer blockbuster from... 1986. Top Gun. That's correct. That's correct. PJ. What? Top Gun. That's correct. TJ.
Starting point is 00:39:48 You're killing me here. What's the matter? I had a chance to win. Well, you still have a chance to win. I don't know anything. I'm very good at this game. I don't know if you guys listen to the podcast. Adam's got a point.
Starting point is 00:40:00 And Mike's got a point. And TJ is here to spoil it for one of them. That's the way I see it. What just happened there? Adam won. Who made him name it? Oh, you did. So we start with Mike.
Starting point is 00:40:14 All right. The debt. And then again, we'll go to TJ. Have we done decapitations yet today? No. Okay. Movies that have a decapitation in them. Or yesterday was Michael Keaton's birthday, so the films of Michael Keaton.
Starting point is 00:40:30 And similarly, at Michael underscore or Malcolm underscore Irvin suggested Opie or Meathead. That's movies directed by Ron Howard or Rob Reiner. I'll do the middle one. And Malcolm underscore Irvin, he sent that from Manila. Oh, then that one. That's not a reason to pick it. Which one did you want? No, I'll do the one from Manila.
Starting point is 00:40:51 Okay. He sent it all the way from Manila. I mean, it was still over the internet, so it didn't take that much extra effort, but I was still excited that someone in Manila is listening to the podcast. It does take a while from Manila. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:41:08 Three stars, Leonard gives this movie that's, what was the category again? Opium Meathead. Both animals, everybody. He gives it three stars, this movie, directed by Opium Meathead. He says that it has colorful detail and that Wow. What year? Oh, sorry. 2005. Oh, he calls it rousing.
Starting point is 00:41:36 That's a good one. Rousing. And it has colorful detail. And it's directed by one of those dudes and there's eight names listed How many names do you get in Mike Kaplan?
Starting point is 00:41:50 Eight names Is that a lot? Yes it is It's a strong opening date T.J. Miller Seven names Seven names If you can hear me at home seven names. Seven names.
Starting point is 00:42:09 If you can hear me at home, I'm being forced to play this game over and over again for my freedom for something terrible I did during Yogi Bear 3D. I saw Yogi Bear again since the last time I saw you. Last time I saw TJ, I told him I've seen Yogi Bear probably six times.
Starting point is 00:42:27 And that was only like two weeks ago. Yogi Bear 18D. I can say seven names? You said seven, yes. I'll go three. Whoa. Three names. Thank God.
Starting point is 00:42:41 I tell him to name that movie. All right, you get three names. This is for... Either way, we're going to have a winner, TJ. So you're going to have some sweet relief any second now. Looking at you, Adam. Look out, everybody.
Starting point is 00:42:57 I know you are. Looking for that sweet, sweet relief. I'll be waiting. It's rousing, according to Leonard. It'll be waiting. It's rousing, according to Leonard. It roused him. He got some sweet relief as well.
Starting point is 00:43:11 But he only gave it three stars, though. 2005. And he also says that it had colorful detail, which is a weird way of putting that.
Starting point is 00:43:21 It's in color. Yeah, it's in color. Little bonus clue. It's in color. And your three's in color. Little bonus clue, it's in color. And your three names are Rosemary DeWitt, Ron Canada, and Bruce McGill.
Starting point is 00:43:34 And it was directed by either Opie or Meathead. Is it Cinderella Man? That's correct. Yes! Whoa! Sweet Relief! Woo!
Starting point is 00:43:45 Sweet, sweet. Scott relief. Scott free. I should have done negative names. I could have gotten into the tournament of champions. You know, TJ, when I yelled at you about going over time and the possibility of it, I had no idea
Starting point is 00:44:01 that these guys are going to be so great at this game. They were so great. We would make it. It was very tense, but we did it. I'm so happy. I've never been so happy. Did Gina... Where is Gina?
Starting point is 00:44:19 Did Gina win? That's it. You got the two points. Where's Gina? Way back there. All right. You got the two points. Gina! Where's Gina? Oh, way back there. All right. She wins an iPad also. Can you give both those things to her? Thank you, Adam.
Starting point is 00:44:31 Her own iPad back. And then where are my friends Tony and Kevi? We've got to get you to come over here, and I'll have you write down. You can have your Alpocalypse back. Kevi, come on up. Everybody, if you're in Los Angeles, we have a bi-weekly show at the Pleasure Chest,

Starting point is 00:45:25 He should be rewarded for his strong work ethic. And Adam Parks and Rec returns to NBC on, I believe, around September 22, something like that? That's exactly right, Doug. Congratulations on getting that date correct.
