Hey everybody, this 420, Time Traveling Bong, a three night event, premieres on Comedy Central.
Broad City's Elena Glazer and Paul W. Downs star as cousins who discover a special bong
that sends them time traveling with every toke.
Time Traveling Bong, three night event, starts on 420, at 1030, 930 Central, on Comedy Central, and on the Comedy Central app.
Enjoy the show!
Doug hates candy wrappers, screaming baby stickies, seeds with 50 azotop or kernels in his teeth.
There's still not one that he won't see, Because Doug loves movies Hey, hey everybody.
Yeah, run.
Run to your seats.
My name is Doug and I love movies.
This is Doug loves movies.
You know, we're in Los Angeles
so I thought you guys would have more talent than that.
Coming to you from the UCB
Theater, the Franklin
location, of course.
It's Thursday, April 14th,
2016, and
I think there might be a couple empty seats tonight
because, what do you guys
think it is? Is it the Stanley
Cup playoffs?
Why would you say
yeah and you're not at home watching it?
Or the
Hillary and
Sanders debate?
Were you guys bummed you had to miss the end of that to be here?
Well, thank you. I appreciate all of you
for showing up. Let's do some Doug
plugs. Sunday, Doug Loves Movies will be
back over at Meltdown Comics on
Sunset Boulevard at 420-ish.
San Francisco, this Tuesday
I'm doing stand-up at Cobb's Comedy Club
and at midnight, we
will count down to 420.
It's my annual
tradition that you can't miss.
Unless
there's a debate or
more hockey. then on Wednesday
420 I'll be doing a huge
Getting Doug With High right here
at the Alex Theater in
Glendale, California at 8 o'clock
and I got some of the
Doug Loves Movies favorites
that you know and love like
Jeff Tate and Rory Scovel will be there
along with three or four other surprise guests
douglosmovies.com
for everything yeah thank you
the prize bag
is very full of stuff
it's a really ornate
bag from Target
when I shopped there recently
I got a Douglas Movies t-shirt
a sippy cup when I saw the Broadway show Disaster.
A shirt that probably says something about booze on it.
Let's see what this one is.
Oh yeah, Jack Daniels Tennessee Fire.
That's something I'll never drink.
We've got one of these cool bowls,
and it's a rubber bowl,
and then there's also a matching,
they don't match, but a rubber pipe,
and they're both from a company called Peacemaker.
They sent me way too much of that shit.
And from my own personal VHS collection,
a VHS copy of an episode of the show
Gross Point, which I thought was
an episode called Mommy Dearest.
And I think it was a very underrated
TV program. I liked that show a lot.
And then a show I really like a lot,
an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
An episode called The Yoko Factor.
So that must have been one
where one of the Scooby gang
got a girlfriend
that started ruining everything.
Maybe Anya is the Yoko.
I don't remember exactly.
Way too many seasons
of that show for me to recall.
And the only episode
I watch repeatedly
is the musical one.
Let's get my guests out here.
We've got four chairs set up and that means
lots more stuff for the prize bag. And let's see, we got a newbie in the mix. Please give
a big warm welcome to Chris Mancini, Tony Thaxton, Rich Sommer, and Tom Papa.
All right.
Thanks, Doug.
So official now, Doug.
Nice.
Hello, hello.
Hey, guys.
Hi.
Hey.
Let's start with the newbie.
Let's say hello to Tom Papa, everybody.
Yes. Thanks for having me.
You're one of the nicest comedians I know. I've known you for a while, and I can't believe
this is your first time on the show. I know. I don't do a lot of things. That's cool. Yeah.
I just kind of sit at home and, you know, listen to things and think, wow, it would be good to be on that.
And then I never call.
Well, you have your own podcast called Come to Papa.
I do.
Yeah.
And you also obviously are a very funny stand-up comedian.
And you live in L.A. now, though.
I do.
I was back and forth for years between New York and LA and uh
I love going back and forth it was nice and then uh my daughter got to an age where she wanted
friends they're so selfish at that age I was like friends are really gonna let you down
and she's like I'm gonna give it a shot and uh so you have to stay put out here yeah it
was kind of between new york and la and in new york you just can't it's a it's an adult place
it's hard for a kid she got tired of like swimming in the fountain at washington square park
it was fun the first time and then you come out of it with like a man's underpants on your head and you're like,
isn't there a pool in LA?
Can't we,
the thing that really crushed me
was when she said,
she was kind of upset
and she wanted to go back
to California
and I'm like,
are you sure?
She's like,
Dad,
I just want to be in a place
that's big enough
to hula hoop.
Oh.
I was like,
oh.
Pack the bags.
We're going out west.
Yeah, and our pools out here,
we don't throw change into them.
Because you could probably get
some sort of awful thing
off of some pennies.
Well, thank you for finally
being here, Tom.
Thanks for having me, Doug.
I hope you have a good time
and come back again and again.
Next up on the panel,
it's Chris Mancini, everybody.
Good to be back.
Co-host of the Comedy Film Nerds podcast.
What project are you working on now? You got like a Kickstarter or a GoFundMe or something?
I do. I'm doing a Kickstarter for a graphic novel called Long Ago and Far Away.
And I always was thinking about what happens when the kids that go into Narnia
and save the world against the Witch Queen, but then they come back?
Then what happens when they turn 30 and they're assholes?
And then they have to go back in that world again.
Oh.
Very inappropriate things, like hit on the Witch Queen and make fun of the elves.
And it's a bunch of, like, asshole nerds that go back into Narnia.
I love it.
And you don't have to get, like,
Narnia rights of any kind? Or do you call it
something else? No, it's not
called Narnia. Oh, okay. Yeah.
That would be a hassle. It's Narnia-esque.
Yeah, yes.
It's like, can't be confused for pretty much
anywhere else. Exactly. But you're gonna give
it a different name. Yeah. Nobody will know
the difference. Fantasia, Oz,
Terabithia, they're all pretty similar.
If you say so.
I know which one I'd want to go to.
Wait, what was the first one?
Fantasia?
Yeah, from A NeverEnding Story.
Oh, yeah.
I just thought of the Disney cartoon.
I was like, that was a land?
Yeah.
That was so boring, that land.
The land where Mickey conducts an orchestra?
Yeah.
There's a lot of singing.
Nothing makes sense.
My voice went, Mickey, orchestra?
All right, Chris, thank you for being here.
And Tony Thaxton is back, y'all.
Hello.
I don't say y'all for just any occasion.
Now, this is a fun story story because Tony is the former drummer
for a band I enjoy a great deal
called Motion City Soundtrack.
And hang
on, it gets sad.
Because they as a whole band have been
so upset at Tony not being in the band
have decided to just pack it in.
Is that why? Yeah.
Nailed it. Sure. No, the band is going to dissolve for various reasons, I'm sure.
But they're going on one last tour,
and Tony is joining them as their drummer again.
I'm back.
Therefore, back on Doug Loves Movies.
And yeah, so buy tickets for all of their shows,
whatever town you're in.
All of them.
And there's a good chance you'll meet me
because I'm going to try
to go to a few of them.
I'm going to travel
to see them
because the show here in LA,
you probably have plenty of people
who want tickets and stuff, right?
Mm-hmm.
So I'll go to another city
and get some free tickets.
All right.
If you say so.
Yeah, it's totally worth it.
I'll pay $400 or $500
and fly somewhere
with a free $25 ticket.
It will be, yeah.
It'll be much easier for me to get you in elsewhere.
Yeah, so we'll do that.
And I'm so excited because he was shooting today
and there was a chance that he wasn't going to make it
or he'd be late, but he's here in plenty of time.
It's Rich Sommer, everybody!
I made it.
I made it, Doug.
You did it.
And you are nothing if not enthusiastic about games.
That's true.
And gamery.
Correct.
You have your own podcast about such a subject.
Oh, I did.
Oh, it stopped completely?
Well, it went on hiatus, probably never to return.
And do we have this conversation every time you're on the show?
I think so.
I think so.
But I love that we keep doing it.
But people can still listen to it, right?
Yeah, in perpetuity.
It's still out there, yeah.
And what was it called?
Cardboard with Rich Sommer.
Not B-O-R-E-D.
No, Doug.
Okay, good.
Board-like.
A little play on words.
No.
No, I get it.
No, you got it.
And so I'm excited that you're going to be playing one of our latest additions to the show tonight.
I'm very into this new game.
I think this whole panel could be quite good at it.
But let's talk about what you were doing.
What were you shooting that you had to race over here?
Is it a secret?
Is it a new Star Wars?
No, it was an episode of the show Grey's Anatomy.
Ooh!
Which was very exciting.
And you had like a couple days on that?
Yeah, yeah. And what do you a couple days on that? Yeah.
Yeah.
And what do you, I saw the, you know, is this rude to say I saw the black guy?
Is there just one main black guy now?
I know there was one black guy that was homophobic and he's not there anymore.
And now there's like a new, kind of a new black guy.
And Patrick Dempsey's not on it, right?
No, he's not.
And I don't think, I don't think Sandra Oh is on it anymore, right?
You didn't see her today, did you?
Didn't come across her, no.
But the main girl is still there.
Ellen Pompeo, yeah. Yeah, there you go.
Alright, so, and we'll
look for you on that in a few months.
Yeah, not long, actually.
I think it's like in less
than a month. I swear, if I knew the exact
episode you're going to be in,
please text me, because I will truly watch Grey's Anatomy to see you on Grey's Anatomy.
Because it's already cracking me up a little bit.
It was fun.
And you just got home to LA from New York City.
Yes.
You were performing in Buried Child, the Sam Shepard play.
The laugh riot that is Buried Child.
It's crazy heavy, right?
It's pretty dark.
Does it have any laughs?
It had a surprising amount of laughs.
We sort of were unprepared for how people were going to enjoy it.
But it is, I mean, Sam Shepard writes very twisted shit,
and so this play is really, really dark.
I mean, the title is Buried Child.
It's not joking about what the play's about.
And yet it's...
Buried alive?
No.
Okay.
No.
Drowned by a person, by an arch play, Ed Harris,
had drowned the baby and then buried in the backyard.
How could you look at Ed Harris every day
when he's a baby drowner?
I mean, I like him when he works for NASA,
but I don't care for him when he's drowning babies.
I had a little moment, like, I'm pretty good
at getting into the thing I'm doing,
but I did have this one part in the play
where he's sleeping on a couch,
and I have to come out, and he has all these,
it's a long story, but he has corn husks all over him,
and I have to collect all the corn husks and take them off stage, and then I have to come out and he has all these, it's a long story, but he has corn husks all over him and I have to collect
all the corn husks
and take them off stage
and then I have to
shave his head.
And every single night,
I'm doing my thing,
I'm playing an amputee
in the play.
It's a fucked up play.
Holy shit.
I'm playing an amputee
in the play.
I come hobbling out.
I've taken all the corn off
and I have this razor
to shave his head
while he's sleeping
and I would hit the back
of my leg,
go down to my knee
and I'd put my hand
on his forehead
and start shaving his head
and every night I would still think to myself, this is Ed fucking Harris. hit the back of my leg, go down to my knee, and I'd put my hand on his forehead and start shaving his head.
And every night, I would still think to myself,
this is Ed fucking Harris.
Is this play playing in Ed Harris' living room?
Yes.
He just likes to have a drama at home.
Amy Madigan chips in.
That's right.
Well, that sounds awesome.
I'm sorry I missed it,
because it was a pretty limited run.
It was.
For a few months?
Yeah, two months, yeah.
Which, do you like that better than being in a show that could just go and go and go?
I think so.
I mean, it ties for the longest run I've ever, I mean, every play I've done has been about
a two-month run.
I can't imagine, knowing how happy I am to have every play end, I can't imagine having
it go any longer.
Sounds like a nightmare.
Nice.
Yep.
You don't miss it a little bit?
Oh, I totally miss it when
it's gone, but when I'm in it, all
I can think about is not ever doing it again.
But that goes
for anything. You're so FOMO.
So at some point you
actually went, wow, I really missed the baby
drowning play. Yeah.
I call it the BDP.
It's fun picking
up husks and shaving heads.
That's right.
Limping around.
Was that like, technically, was that hard to pull off,
making it look like you were shaving his head every night?
That part wasn't so hard.
Because he was kind of bald.
Yeah, he's pretty bald.
He's bald already, and you just kind of give him a trim?
Well, yeah.
He has a hat on.
I stand in front of him and take the hat off,
but there's all this makeup.
Because later in the play, he puts his hat back on,
and then he reveals that he's bleeding from where I did.
So I had to sort of cover when I took off the hat,
because he was already bleeding.
No, the hard part was pretending I had one leg
for two hours every night.
But otherwise, it's going to be great.
Remember that when Amy Poehler used to do that sketch
where she'd hop around on one foot for an entire sketch?
She only did it once, right?
I think she did it more than once.
It was different sketches.
Oh, yeah.
You're right.
You're right.
But the same sort of characters.
Yes.
And it was crazy.
I'm rocking one leg.
That whole thing.
There was one that was like a Rock of Love parody where she was one of the girls who
was trying to get picked.
It was amazing.
Yeah.
And so that's what you had to do.
You had to kind of hop on a foot.
Right.
Like that five minute sketch that Amy did three times.
It was like that every day for two hours.
Yeah, so I'm matinee on Wednesday.
Yes, exactly.
Where'd you put your leg?
Well, when I was standing up, I just put it.
Just backstage.
There was a lot of bending and hiding under blankets.
Oh, man.
Did you have to put a label on it to know everyone knew that that's your leg?
Don't take my leg?
Yes, absolutely.
Were you ever
in a production
of True West?
No.
Because that one,
he fucking,
Sam Shepard writes
some fucked up
stage activities.
Yeah.
Because in that one,
they're like throwing
toasters and shit
at each other.
Yes.
Yeah.
God bless him.
I saw The Fool for Love
with Sam Rockwell
and Nina Arianda.
That play written
for Ed Harris, by the way, back in 1983.
And he was probably as good as roping as Sam Rockwell learned some serious roping.
Like, he's just like constantly roping shit in the hotel room and knows how to do it.
Yeah, he kind of doesn't fuck around with Sam Rockwell.
He doesn't.
He likes to dance.
That's right.
Get in the mix.
But he always uses two legs.
That's right.
That's right.
I get it.
Cheater dancing.
This guy in the pants right here is going
dancing. That's for damn sure.
Well, it's a waste if he doesn't.
I love that a whole room full of people are like,
the guy in the pants, and you know who I'm talking about.
That's how colorful his
pants are.
Let's just go down the line.
There's a question I like to ask everybody before we get into the game
portion. Chris Mancini, what was
the last motion picture that you saw
with your own two eyes? The Invitation.
Oh, me too.
I mean, I saw it. That wasn't the last one I saw.
That was a really, really
fucked up movie. Yeah, you were kind of sad that you
RSVP'd for The Invitation.
And it was the kind of movie that...
It was written by sam shepherd yeah
it felt like it yeah yeah it was just missing a drowning baby that was all they did do uh and it
was one of those movies like wow this is really good i really liked it but then you know still
about 24 hours later colors weren't as bright food still tasted like ash it really stayed with you
that movie yeah i thought it was an interesting movie interesting movie in that at first I was kind of like,
I don't know if I'm going to get into this.
And then by the end of it, I was super into it.
Some shit goes down.
Yeah, and they just stage it well.
And Karen Kusama, I hope I pronounced that right, who did Girl Fight,
and the vampire, Jennifer's Body.
She directed it.
And it's ultimately a pretty neat movie.
And Aeon Flux.
What?
Yeah.
There's a Motion City soundtrack poster on the wall in Jennifer's Body.
Oh, in Jennifer's Body.
I just saw the invitation a couple days ago.
I was like, dude, you crazy.
There's no posters on the walls in that movie.
It's a nice house.
It's a party.
Yeah, it is.
But Jennifer's body, that's cool.
I don't have real movie credits,
so if my face is on a poster on the movie,
I got to, you know, pretty excited.
But we can hear your drumming in a movie or two, right?
Yeah, a couple.
Yeah, yeah, okay.
My face is also in the squeak-whirl.
I mentioned that before, too.
The squeak-whirl, I love. We just call it that
because we're so hip.
I will lie.
Who are you in,
Squeakquel or Road Chip?
I will lie to my kids
about a lot of things,
but one thing that I am
always 100% honest about,
they're like,
Dad, you've got to watch
this movie with me.
I'm happy to watch
almost anything with them.
And they always say,
Dad, you've got to watch
Alvin and the Chipmunks
with us.
And I'm like, guys, they're eight and five. I love you guys very much. I'm happy to watch almost anything with them. And they always say, Dad, you've got to watch Alvin and the Chipmunks with us. And I'm like,
guys, they're eight and five.
I love you guys very much. I'm glad that you enjoy that movie. I will never watch
that movie with you
ever. And they're like, Dad, ha ha.
I'm like, I'm not joking.
I will watch almost any other movie.
I'm not going to watch those movies.
I had to have that conversation about the Shrek sequels.
Yeah. You have to have it every once in a while.
My girls are 10 and 13 now, and they were into the first one.
And I was the opposite now, because now they're older,
and we're driving, and I see Squeakquel.
And I'm like, hey, kids, we're going to check that out.
And they're like, no.
Why do your kids hate me?
But, you know, the invitation,
squeak-whole.
You know,
David Cross is kind of funny in it.
Okay.
Just thought I'd throw that out there.
Tom, what was the last
motion picture
that you watched?
Can this be...
In any form.
In any form.
I watched,
we had,
we do Spaghetti Movie Night with the family on Fridays.
So you only watch Western Trimitally?
A lot of Eastwood.
Thanks to that side of the room, you guys can fuck off.
So your kids go, oh, so that's what 70 millimeters is supposed to look like.
We want to be Italian, too.
We watched Close Encounters, which the kids had never seen before.
Well, you should have changed it to Mashed Potato Night for that one evening.
But the kids like it?
They did like it.
They did like it.
You know, whenever you try and turn them on to a movie that you loved,
they don't like it as much as you want them to.
It's just never, they never kind of hook in like that.
But this one, like we watched Poltergeist and a couple others,
and they really didn't like it.
This one, they were like, I don't know.
And then they got hooked pretty quick.
Yeah, it's kind of neat when they're like running and all the helicopters
are going up to the Devil's Tower and they're like,
where's this going? What's going to happen?
And all the kind of government
conspiracy angle and stuff. But also,
I haven't seen it in a while,
but it is nuts how long
Richard Dreyfuss fucks around with
that mashed potato thing
in his house. They would not do that
in a movie today. Other than Batman
versus Superman, they are not willing to take that much time
for something that doesn't ultimately mean that much.
He could have just made a little thing
and then ran out the door.
And I started, now as like a father,
this is the first time I watched it as a father,
and I found myself defending his behavior.
I'm like, sometimes dads just gotta do what they gotta do.
Yeah.
This is an opportunity.
When it's coming into your brain.
When your brain is telling you to do something,
whether you wanna do it or not,
it's your brain, man.
You just gotta do it.
Gotta make that effort.
But it really was, it really, for me, it held up.
It was really just so,
when the giant ship comes at the end
and comes down and it just kind of rotates.
You think you're seeing it, and it just rotates,
and it's been upside down.
They take their time with that, too.
They take their time with that, too.
I know.
Without that scene, there'd be no 80s album covers.
Yeah.
ELO would put out the white album, the blue album, the red album.
Well, that's cool.
That's a great one to bring up,
because I really would like to watch that again,
because I watched it over and over again as a kid.
I loved it.
You know what's amazing, too?
How skinny everyone is.
Something is...
I swear to God, you watch those films,
everybody is just like extras.
They're just thin.
Something is in our...
It was a close encounter moment for me.
Like, we're being poisoned.
We're all puffy now.
Even if you're in shape, you're kind of puffy.
They're just skinny like a sandwich
with one piece of meat and no glucose.
And they're just like, all right, let's go to work.
And there's belts and tight shirts.
It's different.
It's totally different.
All right, I'll look for that.
Sounds depressing.
But also, I just think that, you know,
even though he wasn't like a conventional movie star,
Richard Dreyfuss was still at that point a movie star, probably took care of himself, you know, even though he wasn't like a conventional movie star, Richard Dreyfuss was still at that point a movie star.
Probably took care of himself.
Not just him.
Right.
No, I mean everybody.
But now there's this kind of weird thing where everyone can just sort of, like there's more movies where everyone just looks like people rather than movie stars.
Right.
Back then.
Huh?
Back then.
Well, now.
Oh, now.
Yeah.
But I'm saying, I don't know what I'm saying. You said it right. I get it. What then. Huh? Back then? Well, now. Oh, now. Yeah. But I'm saying... I don't know what I'm saying.
You said it right. I get it.
What do you mean? Don't you think there was more normal-looking people in film back then?
No. No, I think what Doug's saying is that now you have like your...
You got like, you know, Seth Rogen could be a matinee idol.
Right. And his biggest failure was when he lost a lot of weight for a movie.
Green Hornet was his biggest flop.
You know, and then he went and put a few pounds
back on, and now he's the Bud Light spokesman.
Right.
It's just more about normal-looking people.
Right. Even though Richard Dreyfuss certainly
was one.
But Terry Garr was really good in that.
You know, just so frustrated with her.
Who played his wife?
She was in... Terry Garr.
No, not his wife. The woman,
the love interest that he runs up the mountain with.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
She was also in Christmas Story.
Melinda Dillon.
God, is she good. Just that crazy hair.
And Francois Truffaut
himself as the government
French
translator dude.
Did they digitize all the guns into walkie-talkies? as the government French translator dude. Yeah.
Did they digitize all the guns into walkie-talkies?
No, they're still guns.
Yeah.
Didn't they undo that, the E.T. thing?
Yeah.
They undid it, right?
Okay, good.
But they're going to put out all three
of the first three Star Wars movies,
parts four, five, and six.
Originally done.
No, the George Lucas
tampered with them versions.
No, I thought they were,
I thought the whole thing
was they were going to...
I don't think so.
I think it's the George Lucas version.
Yeah, but Disney bought it
and weren't they going to say
fuck off and just make,
and put out the thing
that everybody's been saying
I'll pay you for?
I don't know.
I didn't hear it that way.
Fox still has the rights
to the first one.
Quit it, Chris.
I thought...
You and your facts. In the theaters?
That's exactly what I want
to see. I want to get the original trilogy
on DVD, on Blu-ray, in the theater
and we're not getting it. Because
who cares about the consumer, right?
Yeah, it's weird.
Everyone wants it. Yeah, it seems like
it would be the smart thing to do because it would also match
better with the current,
the new Star Wars, and not just have a bunch of weird things
running around in the frame that are unnecessary.
It's fine in the cantina scene, but you don't need like,
boop, boop, boop, going on everywhere all the time.
And that Jabba the Hutt scene that they added was just
the same dialogue that happens in another scene.
It doesn't move anything along. It's just him showing off with Jabba the Hutt scene that they added was just the same dialogue that happens in another scene. It doesn't move anything along.
It's just him showing off with Jabba the Hutt walking.
But man, when Han steps on his tail, forget about it.
Yeah, that's pretty fun stuff.
That's definitely the sense of humor George Lucas locked into for the rest of his career.
Oh, it's funny when somebody steps on something.
Rich, what about you?
Have you been...
Yeah, I saw a little...
I saw a movie.
I don't think it's out yet, though.
The Adderall Diaries.
Oh.
With Mr. Jimmy Franco and our friend Ed Harris.
Oh, did he make you go see it?
No.
No.
He makes me do everything I do.
He lassoed you and made you go.
I still have a bruise on my arm from where Ed would punch me in the play, by the way.
Ed weighs about 150 pounds, but every single ounce of that is muscle.
And maybe muscle with a little pinch of rage. Well, he's also a replicant.
And an AIDS survivor, don't forget. maybe muscle with a little pinch of rage. Well, he's also a replicant. He would hit.
And an AIDS survivor, don't forget.
He would hit me so hard.
Why would a joke about the movie The Hours,
why would that work?
I lost you on Spaghetti Western,
why would I get you back with The Hours?
Anyway, it was fine.
The movie was fine.
Ed was really good.
Nice.
So that's coming out soon, you think?
Yes, I think very soon.
All right. And I think I speak for everybody when I say we want to see the bruise.
Well, I don't think you can actually see it.
You can't get to it?
Well, it's...
Or you could feel it, but you can't see it?
Yeah.
Okay.
It's still bruisey, but...
Applesaucey, yeah.
Yeah, okay.
Because I was going to take a picture and Instagram that shit.
No, I'm sorry.
I don't think it's visible, but it hurts.
Oh, well, I'm sorry to hear that.
Tony Thaxton, what was the last movie you saw?
I haven't been to the theater in a bit, and I've been very behind lately.
I think just last week I saw Straight Outta Compton, finally.
That's great that you got around to it.
Yeah.
Very entertaining movie.
I enjoyed it.
My biggest takeaway from it,
that is Dr. Dre needs to pick a baseball team.
What, has he got a different hat on every time?
Every fucking scene, he's got a new hat on.
Is that true?
Yeah.
I didn't notice that.
I didn't notice it either.
There's a lot of different teams in that movie.
Just man up and pick a team, Dre.
Yeah, it's not that hard.
Yeah, that's crazy.
I had no idea.
All right, well, that wraps that portion of the show up.
Now it's time for me to say, let the games begin!
Oh, I'll say really quickly, I saw it opens tomorrow.
It's in limited release.
I saw Green Room.
And another fucked up movie, but in a fun way.
Oh, cool.
But pretty fucked up.
Yeah, I'll say that.
People brought some name tags.
We've got a few out there.
And one gentleman brought his pants.
And everybody just go and select.
Wow, that one's pretty cool.
Select the name tag that you'd like to play for tonight.
And while you do that, we'll do this.
We'll be right back after these messages.
Hey, you guys.
This 420, you've heard me talk about it on Getting Doug with High.
Those three magic words.
Time traveling bong.
Those three magic words, time-traveling bong.
A three-night event premieres at 1030, 930 Central, on Comedy Central, on 420. It stars Paul W. Downs and Broad City's Elena Glazer, who you have also seen on Getting
Ducked With High.
Isn't she hilarious?
They play cousins who stumble upon a time-traveling bong that hurls them through history.
When the bong breaks, as bongs are made to do,
they are forced to bounce around the space-time continuum,
hoping each hit they take gets them closer to home.
Time-traveling bong!
Three-night event starts on 420 at 1030 9 30 central on comedy central and you can also check it out
if you're busy doing other things on 420 on the comedy central app back to the show
we're back who are you playing for chris i'm playing for indiana joel and the Temple of Donuts.
And that's great.
Instead of bringing donuts to try to get us to throw them at everybody,
he just included donuts in the name tag.
That's a long-time listener.
Joel, where are you at?
I'm right here.
Yeah, right on, man.
Good job.
Did you come in from out of town?
Yep.
Where?
Fresno.
Oh, dude, are you the guy that I met at La Pubelle?
Right next door?
Yeah, yeah. At La Pubelle? Yeah, yeah, La Pubelle.
It's French for stinky trash can.
And I like their French onion soup.
It's the only French thing they serve, I think.
No, I think they have some other French shit in there.
But yeah, we met at the bar over there earlier this evening.
Well, great job bringing that all the way from Fresno.
And good luck.
Tom, who are you playing for?
Planet of the Marys.
It's like Planet of the Apes with a lot of Marys.
Famous Marys?
I think just Marys.
Straight up Marys.
Like you don't know them?
No, it's just me.
It's just you.
Oh, it's just her over and over again.
It's Wahlberg.
Wahlberg and her in different Mary poses.
Oh, okay.
And Mark Wahlberg's in there
because of course
he starred in that.
Yeah.
That,
that,
Fine piece of film?
Yes.
That classic.
That classic.
That classic.
The classic that they
remade into that.
And Rich,
who are you playing for?
I'm playing for
Booty Paul.
The classic booty call
has finally been turned
into a name tag
That's right
Great job, Paul
Do you really spell Paul P-A-L-L?
No, that's a U, it's just a shitty blue
Oh, okay
His Photoshop skills need some work
Yeah, no, he's really bad at making posters
But who doesn't want a good booty, Paul?
That's right
And Tony, what's yours all about?
Not quite sure how to name tag, but it's great.
Costanza America, the Winter Seinfeld.
And it's fucking George Costanza in full Captain America gear with the shield, and he's up in the air.
Who's that in the corner?
That's Jerry down there, I think.
Jerry Seinfeld with a weird mask on his face.
What is your name?
Costanza.
Costanza's his last name.
I don't think I've ever met a real Costanza.
So that's cool.
Pick me, Jerry!
Alright, so
those are the name tags we have in play
and I'm so excited because
there's this new game that people love.
I don't know if they love it or not, but I do.
Let's play Jason and Deb's IMDB game.
Yeah, see?
There's at least four people.
Oh, this is fun.
I've got, for an example,
you guys, Rich and Tom,
I looked you guys up on the old IMDB.
And Rich, what do you think your most known for top four would be?
And it can go TV, I should say.
Oh, that's good.
It even goes internet on some people.
I'm going to say Mad Men is probably one of them.
Thanks.
It's only been two years, and we've gotten it down to one clap.
Woo!
Maybe is Giant Mechanical Man up there.
Uh-huh.
Uh-huh.
Is Devil Wears Prada up there?
Uh-huh.
Three for four, dude.
The last one is going to be, oh, Celeste and Jesse, I'll bet.
That's it, yeah.
Nice.
You just looked at it today or something. No, I did not.
I can tell you that's how few jobs I've actually had.
Most of my work has been on Douglas movies.
Let's try to go in order on yours, Tom.
What's your number one thing that you're known for,
according to IMDb?
The marriage ref.
No, it's number two.
Oh.
What's number one?
Behind the candelabra?
No, it's not even on the list.
But that's awesome that you're in that.
The informant?
You've done, that's, I was just going to say, you've been in two Soderbergh things.
Yeah, and neither of them are out there.
The informant, exclamation point, you have to say that.
Yes.
Neither one of those are on there.
Oh.
They go interesting ways.
I tell you, there's no way to figure out these guys.
Bee movies?
Bee movies, number one.
Number one?
Number one.
It's the number one thing you're known for.
A cartoon where no one has seen you in it.
I know.
And I had like two lines.
Probably because I wrote on it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You're instrumental in getting that to me.
Getting that thing off the ground.
To the great shape it was in.
Me and Costanza.
And I heard that there are some dads out there
who refuse to watch it with their kids.
But I'll watch it with mine.
I'll make that pledge right now.
Thank you.
And then they went with
two more.
Do you have any other guesses?
No.
Doug is holding up the Costanza
America. Seinfeld?
Yeah, what is he?
What does he do for a living?
Comedian?
Yeah.
Documentary comedian?
Yeah, comedian starring Seinfeld.
Wow.
That's your number four.
That's hilarious.
And I'm not even going to taunt you with this,
because I don't think you know that you did this.
Your third credit on there is...
The Harmful World of El Superbisto?
Oh, yeah.
The haunted...
Haunted world, sorry.
The haunted movie of El Superbisto.
I wrote and starred in that animated film with Rob Zombie.
Rob Zombie and I made it together,
and I am El Superbisto.
Wow.
Why didn't you guess that as one of your...
I didn't think anyone knew about it.
Is it out there?
People can see it somewhere?
Yeah, yeah, someplace.
It's streaming somewhere.
It's streaming somewhere.
It opened in a theater for one weekend,
just I think as like a promo
kind of thing. And then
I was just with Rob a couple
weeks ago and he's like, what's it feel like
that the one movie that you starred in, nobody
knows it was you?
I was like, almost as
shitty as your friendship.
No, but it's a fun movie.
Paul Giamatti was in it.
And a whole bunch of crazy people.
This doesn't surprise me, because when I think Rob Zombie, I think Tom Papa.
He directed my stand-up specials, too.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Is that true?
My last two stand-up specials he directed.
And yeah, evaluate, re-evaluate your opinion of me. too. Yeah? Is that true? My last two stand-up specials he directed. And, yeah.
Evaluate. Re-evaluate
your opinion of me.
I mean, I don't know
which is funnier, the Devil's Reject
or a Tom Papa special.
Rejects, I should say.
That's a fucked-up movie, too.
There's a lot of fucked-up movies out there.
But that one, you get to see my friend Brian Posehn get capped in the head.
Oh.
Yeah.
It's really violent and upsetting.
Posehn's in Bisto, too.
Is he?
Yep.
For the rest of the show, if a name comes up that's in Bisto, definitely get another plug in for that.
Because you and Rob Zombie make something.
People should be checking it out.
Absolutely.
That's my feeling about it.
Yeah.
All right. Let's play this game. That was just for fun. Absolutely. That's my feeling about it. Yeah. Alright, let's play this game
now that we've, that was just for fun
and now we're going to play it for real.
I will start naming movies
in the top four of somebody's IMDb
page and just say your name when you think
you know the answer. We're playing to five
points, but you get negative points if you guess
wrong and of course
you get bonus points for going after those
additional titles after you get
the first one correct the shining oh i like that you're also cautious the departed rich
rich who is it jack nicholson that's That's correct. One point for Rich. Thank you.
Now, bonus points.
Name the next two.
One Flew the Cuckoo's Nest?
No.
Okay, good.
Someone in the audience was surprised.
A Few Good Men?
No.
Wolf?
I wish that movie
had come out
and was called
Wolf with a question mark
Wolf?
As good as it gets
in Chinatown
or the remaining two
Jack Nicholson
I mean that's a pretty
solid top four right there
That's not so bad
I gotta say
So Rich got the one point
on that one
Woo
I'll take it
Yeah
Thanks
Madman right?
Same bad man clap.
This guy gets me.
He knows what you do it for.
Did people applaud when you shaved Ed Harris' head?
Was that an applause point in the show?
All right, here we go.
Here's the next one.
First title's a long one.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2.
The Great Budapest Hotel.
Chris.
Yes.
Gary Oldman.
No.
Tom.
Wait, I gotta give Chris a negative point.
Tom. Ray Fine. That's correct. Oh, yes. Chris, the negative point. Tom?
Ray Fine?
That's correct.
I somehow miss Gary Oldman in the Grand Budapest Hotel.
What part do you think he should have played?
Ray Fine's role.
All right, so Tom Popp has a point,
and he can get two more points
if he can name two more Ralph Fiennes movies
that IMDb thinks is his top four.
This is tough, this one.
You think?
Yeah, I like this game.
Okay, good.
One is war.
It's something war.
It's something Nazi-ish.
Oh, yeah.
What would that be called?
That would be called not saving Private Ryan.
That would be called Schindler's List.
Correct.
Nice.
No one applauded for you because this is
probably the most obvious answer.
Especially after you're noodling around
with Nazi movies.
What's your fourth?
Do you have another one?
And my fourth would be Quiz Show.
No, Quiz Show didn't make the cut.
They went with The English Patient.
That's what I was trying to think of. Yeah.
So Tom Papa has two points.
Sweet.
And Rich has one.
Oh.
Tony is in third place with zero.
That's the kind of game it is.
You're much more in the running with zero
than with Chris's negative four.
But I think someone with negative four is
negative one. I'm sorry.
I'm just so excited to give you more negative points.
Alright, I'll do my best.
Alright.
Do your best worst.
And here's the next round.
There will be blood.
Lincoln.
Tony.
Rittenhouse.
Tony, what do you think?
Dana Day-Lewis.
That's correct.
Jeff Tate's favorite actor.
Could have been Paul Dano, though, right? He's in both of those, isn't he?
Is Paul Dano in Lincoln?
Everybody's in Lincoln.
Isn't he?
Yeah, he should be.
I was going to say Paul F. Tompkins.
I don't think he is.
Yeah, he's not in Lincoln.
Never mind.
Paul F. Tompkins should definitely be in Lincoln.
Oh, absolutely.
I mean, Paul F. Tompkins should be in every Daniel Day-Lewis movie,
as you'll hear when we say the rest of them.
I've said too much.
Name a couple more there, Tony.
I'm going to go My Left Foot.
Sorry, no.
No?
IMDb is weird.
Gangs of New York?
Correct.
Yeah, and the other one, this isn't that weird, Last of the Mohicans.
Oh, yeah, weird.
You think?
That's a pretty big movie.
Yeah.
Whatevs.
Whatevs. Whatevs.
Were there Nazis in it?
Great point.
Great point.
I did not see any in it when I saw it.
So Tony has two, Tom has two, Rich has one, and Chris has negative one.
All right.
Holden strong.
Negative one.
We're doing seven rounds.
Hopefully somebody will get to five points.
Good fellas.
Chris.
Oh, he's taking a chance.
He's already in the hole.
Joe Pesci.
Oh, I can't believe you did that.
That's incorrect.
So excited to give you another negative point.
Oh, no.
Someday we'll have an IMDb negative point tournament
where the people that went deepest in the hole
come back for one more glorious day in the sun.
All right.
Let me say the second movie.
It was good, though, to take that chance.
You know? You got to get away from negative one.
When somebody's close to five points, I recommend you do it every time.
Right.
Because even though you keep going negative, you never know when you can turn it around.
That's good advice.
You know, four points are in play every time if you guess first.
You know what I mean?
Right.
All right.
I'm imparting strategy as we play.
Yeah.
All right.
So I said Goodfellas.
He said Pesci.
That's wrong.
The next movie is called Casino.
Rich.
I think that was Rich.
Does everybody agree?
Okay, good.
Rich.
Robert De Niro.
You're so shy.
Yes, it's Robert De Niro.
Thanks, guys.
What the fuck is happening?
I know it's a low-key panel,
but you can help us.
Rich is a very nice man.
I think they think you're Harry Crane.
I think they think you're looking
at Harry Crane the whole time.
I think you freaked him out with the leg thing.
You freaked him out with the leg thing and you haven't won him back. I You freaked him out with the leg thing, and you haven't won him back.
I haven't even told him what I have for the prize packet.
That would get him excited.
Oh, yeah, none of us have.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
Can I tell him what's in the prize bag?
Let's finish this game, and then we'll do the prize bag stuff.
I really want to tell him.
It's pretty stupid.
Okay, tell him right now.
I took this pamphlet off of the Grey's Anatomy set today.
So this, and then on the back,
I wrote download codes
for a video game I'm in.
You thought it was
going to be way better,
but I totally psyched you out.
Well, it's,
no, it's two great things in one.
Yeah.
And so easy to carry.
Exactly.
If you just shoved it
into your pocket there.
You can get it on PS4 or Steam.
Yeah, but I love this.
You stole this from the set.
I took it right off.
Was it prominently visible?
Like, can they watch
the episode?
You know, there's the flyer.
It's not in this episode,
but it's in a bunch
of other ones.
It's in the little
waiting room area.
All right, well now
everybody's crazy about you.
Thanks, guys.
I can't wait
for you to cheer.
A little applaud
for everything you do
from now on.
And yeah, each audience is different at Douglas movies.
I never know when the clapping's going to happen,
so I just try to just keep moving forward.
I'm just here so little.
This shows a shark.
If it doesn't move, it's awful.
What's the matter?
Well, they're just so mad at us.
Two guys really liked you.
Oh, yeah.
I appreciate that.
All right, so Robert De Niro.
You got a point. If you can name two more De Niro movies that are in the top Niro you got a point if you can name
two more De Niro movies
that are in the top four
you are winning this game
okay
I'm gonna go Taxi Driver
you gotta be shitting me
what?
is it a no?
oh I'm sorry
no
I keep forgetting
if it's better to hear the two titles
and then say what they are
or say yes or no individually.
I guess it doesn't matter, so the answer's no.
Okay.
Okay, what the fuck is IMDB thinking
if that's not...
Okay, then I'm going to say...
I'm going to say
Meet the Parents.
That's correct!
You just got to play IMDB's game You just got to play IMDB's game.
That's what IMDB is thinking.
You got to play IMDB's game.
Yeah, they went with a pretty shitty lame movie for his third one.
They went with The Godfather Part II.
Boring.
Yeah, well, I don't know where they got the nerve.
Where was analyzed that?
The driver should be in there over Meet the Parents, right?
Yeah, but, you know, Meet the Parents is why we now can only see him in shitty comedies.
Excellent.
Gave him a brand new lease on life.
Some of them are good.
That was extra mean.
Okay, like worried about Robert De Niro hearing this.
Analyze That.
Analyze That.
No, Analyze This was very fun.
I was in Analyze That.
I was in that.
One too many. You were in Analyze This? I was in Analyze That. That. You were in that? Yeah, Analyze This. No, Analyze This was very fun. I was in Analyze That. I was in that. One too many.
You were in Analyze This?
I was in Analyze That.
That.
That.
You were in the not fun one.
Yeah, Analyze This.
Not this.
It still had some laughs.
But it just did all the same stuff again.
It was just really a retread of the first one.
I was in that.
Well, Rob Zombie directed it, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, when they brought him in, it was a direction they should not have pursued.
All right.
So we got two more rounds of this.
Wait.
So now.
I picked up a couple of them.
Oh, Rich, you weren't in a position to win there.
You did pick up two more points, but now you're up to three.
Okay.
Yeah.
Well, now I'm in a position to win.
Now you very much are.
Oh, man.
This is great.
Oh, I'm so nervous. Chris, how you doing? a position to win Doug. Now you very much are. Oh, man, this is great. Oh, I'm so nervous.
Chris, how you doing?
Shelley Duvall.
Shelley Duvall.
So that means you feel like you're screaming in a bathroom?
As the axe comes through the door?
All right.
It's fun when you're watching any Jack Nicholson movie
when he walks in to scream, here's Johnny.
Yeah.
All right.
First movie.
Kramer versus Superman.
I mean Kramer.
Chris. Dustin Hoffman. mean Kramer. Chris.
Dustin Hoffman. That's correct.
Nice.
Now this is the kind
of comeback I'm talking about.
You can name three more.
You're going to be back in this thing.
That's correct.
Midnight Cowboy? No.
Ah.
Midnight Cowboy?
No.
Who is doing that?
Raise your hand, please.
Trying to think the IMDB one. It was not Fresno.
He knows better.
But that was...
Rain Man.
Rain Man?
I like that you disregarded the whispering.
That wouldn't be fair. I like that you disregarded the whispering. That wouldn't be fair.
I like that attitude a lot.
Rain Man is correct.
Yay!
All right.
Would the whispered one be correct?
Yeah, that's the unfortunate part.
You really fucked shit up by doing that.
I honestly don't know why you did that.
Boo!
So I think as a penalty, I should get four more points.
To penalize that guy?
Yeah.
Were you just that proud of yourself
that you fucking know Dustin Hoffman is in The Graduate?
What a movie trivia genius.
Would you have said graduate?
He might have, yes.
It's interesting what he might have said.
If some audience fucko
didn't yell out. He didn't even yell it out.
He whispered it. What's the point of that?
I maybe don't want them
to hear this.
Alright, so we got to give Chris a fighting shot at this.
So fortunately, they do go on to list more than just four films.
Oh, this is bad.
My internet's not working.
That's the one thing that sucks about IMDb.
What's the movie with Matthew Broderick and Marlon Brando?
With the lizard.
The Freshman. The Freshman. Did you do it with Matthew Broderick and Marlon Brando with the lizard? The freshman.
He said The Graduate, and I was like,
Dustin Hoffman is not in that fucking movie.
It's a lizard and Martin Brando.
I could not.
I was doing every piece of math in my head to figure out what Dustin Hoffman did in that movie.
And then when Doug was so mad about it being right,
I figured it must be right.
And so I dug deeper and then went, oh, right, The Graduate.
The actual movie that the guy said.
Plastics.
Now I remember.
Thank you!
Oh, they're on my side!
It wasn't even your guy that started that one.
That's right.
I can't get my IMDB to come up on my phone.
It's very annoying.
So that would have been a good backup plan
to just do the next movie on the Hoffman
list. So...
What? Maybe we
have better service. Oh yeah, if one of you
guys can do it. Does somebody have
Verizon? Yeah.
Because my AT&T is sucking dick right now.
I have Dustin Hoffman.
I'll give you my phone for one point.
Don't show Chris. I'll give you my phone for one point. Don't show Chris.
I'll give you my phone for one point.
That's a point.
That's a point for Tom.
I'll take it.
I heard it.
A point for working Wi-Fi?
That's right.
All right.
So you know what I'm going to do?
Because in the sense of fairness, I'm going to say,
Chris, name the next
Dustin Hoffman movie
and I'll go with
any one of the first
four that they list
in addition to the
other four
that we already said.
Oh, man.
Just to try to help
you out here a little bit.
I appreciate that.
Not the graduate.
You guys,
not the graduate.
Don't say the graduate,
Chris.
Like sometimes
somebody will yell out something
that does not really affect the game,
but in this game, it really fucks over the game
that Chris, because Chris probably would have said the graduate.
I just wonder if the audience member who whispered it
understands that he did something wrong at this point.
I'm curious.
I don't know.
I mean, I asked him to raise his hand
and he won't even identify himself.
Oh, there you are. So do you listen to the podcast? Ever? No. I asked him to raise his hand and he won't even identify himself.
So do you listen to the podcast?
Ever?
No.
So why did you buy a ticket to be here tonight?
Because you were tired of whispering to horses?
But thank you for being here
and now you know that
now you know that...
Now you know not to say answers
from the audience during a game show.
The only way you can learn it
is by making the mistake.
He thought it was Price is Right style.
This is nowhere near the maddest
I've ever gotten about this.
It feels like it's got to be close. It's nowhere near. maddest I've ever gotten about this. It feels like it's gotta be close.
It's nowhere near.
Nowhere near.
I'm having a good time
with it this time.
We're all having
a good time.
I'm trying to craft
jokes about it.
The other time
was pure rage.
The other time,
like it only happened once.
But there was one
really bad one
and that's why
I can never see a movie
starring Amy Adams.
That's why?
One of the reasons.
Chris, what do you got?
I apologize to you, because you're not going to succeed.
You know, I'm thinking because of the way IMDb works,
I'm thinking maybe it's a series of unfortunate events.
Oh, that's a terrific guess.
But no, they went with Kung Fu Panda.
Kung Fu Panda 2.
Fuck you, IMDB.
The program.
I don't remember him being in something called the program.
Is that with Marlon Brando and the lizard?
And then he's like a voice in Roald Dahl's
ECO Trot.
So wait, wait, wait, wait.
Marathon Man isn't even one of the bottom four
of the top eight?
No, but then, you know, once they start listing more things, it's just so random.
Chef, Luck from HBO, where they had to cancel the series because they were murdering horses.
Thank you for the phone loan.
You're welcome.
Oh, he was also in El Super Bisto.
Look at that.
Oh, there you go.
In an animated film, you don't see everybody.
You know, it's going to go in different days.
You don't listen to the podcast?
Why are you here then?
How dare you?
Why did you come out of the shadows?
Yeah.
It's going to make the headlines. This is the first time we had to throw Rob Zombie out of the shadows? Yeah. It's going to make the headlines.
This is the first time we had to throw Rob Zombie out of UCB.
So what did we decide Chris got for his troubles there?
You came in on the first one, and you also got Tootsie and Rain Man.
So you're out of the hole, my friend.
All right.
Cool.
Yeah.
So correct me if I'm wrong. If he makes the next guess on the first one, then guesses the next three, cool yeah so correctly
if I'm wrong
if he makes
the next guess
on the first one
then guesses
the next three
he's in the
he wins
he will win the game
because there's only
one more question left
yeah
anyone who
you know
names the movie
pretty quickly
and then
and then adds to it
has a really good shot
at winning
it's anybody's game
on this one
that's how it feels
that's how it feels
I love it
the Da Vinci Code Chris Tom on this one. That's how it feels. I love it.
The Da Vinci Code.
Chris. Tom.
Rich.
First of all...
I didn't know we could do it so late.
Tony. Tony.
This is Tony.
Chris.
Tom Hanks.
That's correct.
This is going to be the greatest comeback.
Come on, make it run.
All right.
You can name three more.
If you can't, Rich is our winner.
So you might want to throw some mojo his way. Okay.
The graduate.
Cast away? Cast away?
Cast away?
No, I'm sorry.
But you can still get to four points
if you get two more, correct?
Big.
No.
God damn it.
Philadelphia?
Again, great movie to have a question mark on the end.
I thought it was about AIDS,
but I guess it's about Philadelphia?
Philadelphia?
No, I mean, they did go with some big ones.
They went with Forrest Gump, Saving Private Ryan,
and The Green Mile.
Never heard of any of those.
So Rich Summers,
our winner of
Jason and Deb's IMDB game.
Nice work.
Thank you.
We did it, Booty Paul.
Great job, great job.
We're going to play one more game,
and this one's called
Last Man Stanton.
We still have our prize bags.
Oh yeah, let's do it.
Sorry.
Keep forgetting that. I actually brought a Grey's Anatomy thing. We still have our prize bags. Oh, yeah, let's do it. Sorry. Keep forgetting that.
I actually brought a bunch of stuff.
Oh, a bunch of stuff?
Yeah.
From Ralph's.
You just grab the garbage on the way out?
Honey, could you dump this?
Yeah, I'll take it to the show.
We got a comedy film nerds book.
Oh, this is pretty awesome.
Ultraman on DVD.
Yeah, nice.
I mean, I said that before.
I really took a good look at it.
And then the aforementioned The Departed.
Yes.
Did you play, earlier, did you just play Jack Nicholson
and then not say The Departed,
even though it was a bag sitting at your feet?
That wasn't me.
Okay, good.
That was me. That would have been
funny. But I also would have
helped put that in somebody's head if I had done
the prize bag thing at the right part of the show.
And then a stack of
Save Elevenwood
stickers. Oh, that's for my Kickstarter.
I'm bad at promoting, so I forgot to put
them out front.
So whoever wins, I'm going to need
you to pass those out. No, I'm just going to do it right now.
Oh my god. Watch your eyes.
Someone's going to the hospital.
Oh my god.
Oh, they're so sharp. They're so sharp.
Sharp corner of the eye.
Where's the whisperer?
Oh, Chelsea,
I hit you with something every time.
If I'm throwing shit, she's going to get hit by it.
Oh! Oh, nice. You with something every time. If I'm throwing shit, she's going to get hit by it. Oh!
You saved the whisperer.
It's fun.
They're mostly just going on the ground unpicked up.
Pick those up on the way out, guys.
Yeah, that's a great idea.
Clean up the theater on your way out.
And what'd you bring, Tom?
I brought this.
It's a box of magic rocks.
Magic fucking rocks, you guys.
Because not only does
magic rock, these are magic
rocks. And you just put them in a thing
and according to this picture
a shark will appear.
Yep.
And they grow
in like an instant.
But can you put them
in with your goldfish
or is it dangerous for them?
No, you shouldn't.
Well, it depends
how you feel
about the fish.
Does it really say on here
don't put it in a fish tank
or anything like that?
I don't think so.
Okay. It's probably still it I don't think so. Okay.
It's probably still,
it probably is bad for them.
Probably.
Or it might give them magic powers.
Oh, no, it'll be,
you know what,
it's not going to bother fish at all
if you put it in their tank.
It says, warning,
skin and eye irritant.
Harmful if swallowed.
Don't run it through your gills.
Tony, what'd you bring bring you brought a huge bag
yeah I brought a bunch of stuff I just moved
and ended up with a lot of weird
shit and uh also I'm
promoting a tour so
uh but I'm gonna start off weird
this is gonna sound fake but it's real
today I met Dr. Phil's wife
and uh so I
picked up a few items from her.
Here's some girly girl gum called Chickie Chew.
She just carries this stuff with her?
It's a longer story.
Oh, Robin McGraw's Chickie Chew, the girly girl gum, fruit flavors.
It's all about branding, guys.
Yeah, I don't know about that.
Is that a worse name than
kissy permissy
no
where it says below that the answer is always
yes oh my god
it's really
there is a worse name it's a mouth shaped
container that has peppermint
mint shaped like X's and O's
for criminals
so you're welcome everyone peppermint mints shaped like X's and O's. For criminals, right?
So you're welcome, everyone.
I do a year-round Christmas-themed podcast called Feliz Navi Pod.
I brought a mug.
Oh, that's adorable.
People love mugs.
People love them.
And as I said, I'm going out on tour,
so I brought the old bands,
basically the whole catalog.
Whoa! Oh, wow. And they're all on vinyl. Yeah, vinyl. As I said, I'm going out on tour, so I brought the old bands, basically the whole catalog. Whoa.
Oh, wow.
That's cool.
And they're all on vinyl.
Yeah, vinyl.
Look at that.
They're all on the hit HBO show.
That's like a real prize, though.
Yeah, and this one's on orange vinyl.
I don't even have one of these.
And all the other records, except for one of them.
One of them's on Columbia Records.
I wasn't able to bring that one.
Oh, that one is my favorite.
This is the one I don't play on, so take it to Amoeba or something. I wasn't able to bring that one. Oh, that one is my favorite. This is the one I don't play on, so
take it to Amoeba or something.
I saw...
Yeah, that's my stuff.
I saw that in the Squeakquel, right?
Actually, yeah, this cover
right here. This is on the wall in the Squeakquel.
Squeakquel.
So next time you're watching the Squeakquel on DVD at home,
that's what to look out for.
Alvin!
I love my kids.
I just can't do it.
You know what I mean?
I hear you, man.
Sometimes you gotta draw a line.
That's the line.
It sounds like you'll see
every other motion picture with them.
I will see almost
every other motion picture.
You can't watch those sequels or take them to the doctor.
That's right.
That's right.
That's right.
All right, so we need to decide, determine an outright winner today.
What Rich won by winning that first game is getting to go first in the next game,
which is Last Man Stanton.
And I usually get tweets from people saying,
I've got the perfect name for Last Man Stanton
because I like to get one from the audience so I can play along.
And nobody tweeted me today about it.
Or maybe somebody did and they're muted or something.
Do you guys mute people?
Do you use that function?
Oh yeah.
Absolutely.
There you go.
All right.
So,
hey,
do you have a good one,
Godna?
Kevin Spacey.
You do have a good one.
We're going to play Kevin Spacey.
All right.
So,
and that's your,
your Twitter is,
Twitter is G-O-D-N-A-H.
And I just call you that,
even though I should know your name.
Kevin Spacey is what Godno wants us to go
with, and
he's a regular visitor
to this show. He's really hamming it up on that
House of Cards show, isn't he?
He's just chewing the scenery.
I haven't gotten into it.
That's more than I never started watching.
Well, if you start watching it,
you'll notice. Yeah.
I heard the limousine budget's very high because he just eats the interior.
That's right.
They have to bring in a new one.
They have to build a new Oval Office per episode.
Because fat Kevin Spacey won't stop eating the walls.
All right.
Well, you get to go first.
And, of course, House of Cards does not count, because that's a television program on Netflix.
And then we'll go to Tom, and then to Chris, and then me and Tony.
And if you can't think of one, you can go to your lifeline.
What's your lifeline?
What the hell is that?
Your friend.
You can ask the person.
Booty Paul.
I can ask Booty Paul.
Oh, I can go.
Is this new?
I've never gotten to do this.
It's a new wrinkle.
I love it.
It doesn't mean you can call on Mary, though. That's mine.
Oh, me.
The 227 fans?
All right.
Well, we'll do a little Kevin Spacey.
We'll do the old seven.
Okay. Let me write it down.
S-E-7.
Exactly.
Never understood that.
Yeah, V is kind of like a seven.
Just put it right in the middle there.
Tom Papa, any Kevin Spacey film?
Usual Suspects.
I think it's The Usual Suspects,
and we really like exact titles on this show.
Then I'll say The Usual Suspects.
Yeah, I'll just give you a pass on one time.
Chris?
Wow, now I feel your rage like that guy back there.
It's very strict.
Oh, yeah.
It was scary.
It's scary when it's coming to you.
I'm going to go flying over this table
if you whisper your answer.
A Bug's Life.
Okay.
He was like the mad bug or the evil bug?
The grasshopper.
He was like the bad guy, though, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, the grasshopper.
I'm going to go with another movie where he played a bad guy, Paying It Forward.
Pay It Forward. Pay It Forward.
Oh, shit.
I'm out.
I would have let it slide.
I see that.
I appreciate that.
I would let it slide totally.
Like that slide.
Tony?
KPAX.
KPAX fan.
Somebody has to be, right?
There's a Pax head here.
I'm going to say American Beauty.
Oh, yeah.
Thank you.
Good one.
The American Beauty.
American Booty Paul.
That's nice, Sweet Paul.
Swimming with Sharks.
Uh-huh.
Ooh, yeah.
That's correct.
Chris?
L.A. Confidential.
Yeah.
I mean, I know that's where we are, but you can give us an answer.
You don't have to keep it to yourself.
I'm out.
Tony?
Moon.
That's a tricky one.
I'm going to say
not the marriage ref,
but the ref.
They're trying so hard to clap for you on everything
and they still can't even.
Well, they owe me.
I'm going to go to Mary.
Oh, Mary.
What do you got?
Do you know Mary?
Do you have a Cave and Spacey movie?
You're sitting near the whisperer.
He can whisper one to you.
I won't mind as long as we don't hear it
oh she doesn't need him this guy is gonna be murdered i'm nervous for him we're gonna find
just a body in the with kickstarter things all on its face he's having fun i've been watching him
you gotta keep an eye
on that shit
so Mary
what's a Kevin Spacey
movie we haven't said yet
he was in
Beyond the Sea
he sure was
yeah
Bobby Darin
the Beyond the Sea
the Beyond
I'm glad you said that
because I was prepared
to call it under the sea.
Now, you won't have
a lifeline next time, Tom,
but by the time
it comes around to you,
you may think of another one.
How many times
can I use Mary?
That's it.
Zero.
Can I use it?
So one more time?
No, that's the last.
That's the final one.
Chris?
Midnight in the Garden
of Good and Evil.
Oh, that's a good one.
Yeah.
Oh, that's a good one. Oh, that's a good one.
Tony?
Ready for this?
See no evil, hear no evil.
Is that true?
With Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor.
I like it.
Whoa.
That's about when Pryor really started showing his symptoms.
Kevin Spacey's like the villain in that.
Oh, you're right.
He's right, Doug.
Give him a point.
I wanted to have that saved, but I...
Oh, that's a good one.
That helped me think of other Kevin Spacey movies.
Oh, really?
Yeah, because it brought me back to a time.
Oh, yeah.
You've got to go back.
But what do you got, Rich? I'm gonna, again, mention my
very close friend, Ed Harris, and say
Glenn Gary, Glenn Ross.
Mm-hmm.
That's what I should have said
instead of fucking up that other one.
So just to be clear, I can use Mary
one more time.
No, the funny thing is
no one's officially taken
the one that I fucked up.
Oh, wait, that's up for grabs?
It sure is.
Oh, thanks for saying that now.
Oh, I wish I was...
It always is.
I just forgot to bring it up.
Oh, God.
Until now.
No, I mean,
that's how we always play it,
is that, like,
if somebody gets one wrong,
we don't say what the correct title is.
Like I did
when I yelled out the correct title.
What?
I was too busy trying to make a joke.
I don't even remember what it was.
That's what I mean.
Like I'm saying it to him because I know he's not going to access it.
You've got it in there.
I do.
He's got his face all fucked up and he throws down a bag of groceries.
You're going to describe it to him?
Yeah, because here's the thing.
I was a huge Kevin Spacey fan until that movie.
And he throws down this bag of... What the fuck is happening? Are you asking Siri for Kevin Spacey fan until that movie and he throws down this bag of
what the fuck is happening?
Are you asking Siri
for Kevin Spacey movies?
No, I wasn't.
He gets in this fight
with what's her name?
Helen Hunt?
Is that who's in it?
He throws down this bag of groceries
and as soon as he threw it
he did this like
and I'm not gonna
and I was just like
oh, I hate you now.
I never watch you
be in anything again.
You know what it is.
Pay it forward.
Yeah.
Oh, good.
You're right.
You know, you think that would have given me enough time to think of another one.
I got to go lifeline to Indiana Joel.
Horrible Bosses.
Horrible Bosses.
I like where that... Thank you. That opens up a. Horrible Bosses. Now I like where that...
Thank you.
That opens up a whole...
That's helpful.
Tony.
I'll go Horrible Bosses too.
Yeah, that's right.
Thank you.
Thank you, because I was done.
Yeah, and that's a good one
because there's no dumb subtitle on there.
It's just straight up Horrible Bosses 2.
Rich.
Yeah, I know.
It came around so fast.
He's got to have done
some other stupid fucking
biopic thing.
God, I hate him.
I guess
I got to go to
Booty Paul.
I got to get a Booty Paul.
Anything?
What do you got for Spacey Booty Paul I gotta get a Booty Paul Anything? What do you got for Spacey, Booty Paul?
I don't know
You don't know any?
You're so clever with this poster
21
What?
21
21 is what he's saying
Do you go with it?
I think
Yes
That's correct
Yay!
Paul, thank you
Person by Paul and Paul
See, in that case, Whisper I don't mind it Paul, thank you, person by Paul and Paul. Woo!
See, in that case, Whisperer, I don't mind it because it's only going to happen once.
He's going to be fucked when it comes back around.
Thank you! That's what we've been waiting for!
Jesus Christ!
I'm just trying to walk him through my weird world
of when it's okay and when it's not okay.
What a journey it's been.
Yeah.
Tom.
Oh, Mary.
I wish you could go to her again, but...
And Horrible Bosses 3 isn't a thing yet.
Yet.
I'm right.
I'm in trouble.
But yeah, you did a great job.
Oh, you're going to guess?
Thank you.
Guess a movie that has a shit ton of people in it.
That works sometimes.
Oh, yeah.
It's a mad...
Yeah.
No, even more.
Like JFK.
Oh. Don't use it in this case because that would be wrong
no I'm going to go
I'm going to take a different tact
because he's always doing that Shakespeare bullshit
oh
I like where this is going
I'm just going to throw out
I know Pacino did this but I know he did it
but maybe it wasn't a film
but I'm just going to say it anyway so the game can move on.
Richard III.
No. Chris.
Now that I'm going to go the JFK route
and say Crash.
Oh, that's, yeah, that is a fun
way to do it, but no.
Tony?
I'm
stumped. I think I've got to go Art Vandelay. Yeah, use I got to go Art Vandelay.
Yeah, use your lifeline.
Art Vandelay.
What?
Superman Returns.
Of course.
He does a great Gene Hackman impression in that.
See, the rightful person is going to win this game.
See, the rightful person's going to win this game.
I saw him on Broadway.
Doesn't count.
I know it doesn't, but I'm just going to tell you this.
In Moon for the Misbegotten, and he was so bad.
And I had no money.
And it was my last night in New York.
My wife, it's her favorite play my wife
we went
that also happens
every time
and I forget it
and then it happens
I'm so angry
when you do it
but I called my dad
he like
he bought the tickets
with his credit cards
I didn't have any money
we were leaving New York
it was our last night
in New York
and it was my wife's
favorite play
and we went and watched it
and
and then intermission.
I was so
fucking over his
bullshit. I wanted to leave so much.
He ruined my last night
living in New York. So I'm going to say Moon for
the Misbegotten. Even though it doesn't count,
but you should all know
what a train wreck it was.
But that was like a movie once with Liza Minnelli, I think, right?
Okay.
Maybe.
Was Kevin Spacey in that?
Patricia O'Neil.
Somebody was in it.
There were people in it.
There was a moon.
It was misbegotten.
That means that Tony Jackson is our winner tonight.
Bringing it home.
Thank you. Thank you.
Mary!
It was really all about Art Vandeley.
That was a good one.
Alright, I'm going to make...
Sorry, Paul.
I'll make that one of the hashtags for the show, Art Vandeley.
And the other hashtag is going to be Kevin Spacey sucks.
It's just disappointing
because I really liked him once
and then he threw that bag of groceries
and paid it forward.
I think he's been amazing and stuff
but he just had that run with K-Pax
and the Shipping News
and fucking
and pay it forward.
He just had a run of movies where it was just like
they all felt like Oscar grabs.
They all felt like I need to get another
Best Actor Oscar, or I need to be nominated.
And it was frustrating, because I do
love him in earlier stuff.
He is stunning. And then those things,
he's just fucking, it's a waste of time.
But you don't watch House of Cards?
I've watched enough to know that I don't have to jerk off to that.
But he might have been better
in the beginning than he is now. He might have gotten
crazier on that show. Maybe, yeah.
Maybe a little bit, yeah.
Because people were raving about him on it.
I know.
I'm a little confused by that.
The first three were really good.
He's good in commercials, too, when he's in commercials.
You can just smell it on him.
I run right out and get whatever credit card he's...
When he's, what's in your wallet?
I went to the Kevin Spacey one.
But I thought of one very early on in his career.
He was in, also very early on in Macaulay Culkin's career,
he was in a movie called Rocket Gibraltar.
Wow.
And he also has a brief part in Working Girl
as the creep in the back of the limo
that's like hitting on her while watching porn.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, my God.
Which I, you used to be able to do that?
Right. Get a woman into the back of a limo and throw on some porn and hit on her while watching porn. Oh, yeah. You used to be able to do that? Right.
Get a woman into the back of a limo and throw on some porn and hit on her?
All right, so which ones did we miss, you guys?
The Negotiator, of course.
What?
Life of David Gale.
Life of David Gale.
That's one of those stupid bio...
He's in Men Who Stare at Goats?
Yeah.
Okay, if you say so.
He has a cameo in Goldmember.
Oh, Time to Kill.
A Time to Kill, yeah.
What?
He has a cameo in Goldmember.
Goldmember.
Ah.
Yeah.
Full title, sir.
It's not Goldmember.
It's the second one.
Oh, it's the second one?
All right.
Spy Who Shagged Me.
Spy Who Shagged Me.
There you go.
A super beast, though.
Bonus point for Tony Thaxton.
Congratulations, Tony and Costanza America. Yeah. Come get all super beast, though. Bonus point for Tony Thaxton. Congratulations, Tony and Costanza America.
Yeah. Come get all your stuff, dude.
Congratulations. Nice.
Enjoy your Mrs. Dr. Phil
products. Chris, one more time,
tell us how people can
go to your Kickstarter. You can go to
kickstarter.com and type
in long ago and far away, and there's
some great awards. You could get the book.
You could even go to a movie with Graham and I for Comedy Film Nerds,
and we'll record an episode with you.
Ooh, that's fun.
And you have until May 2nd, so please don't delay.
How much do we need to make this thing?
It's a $28,000 goal, and right now we're about halfway there,
so it's going well, but we need your help to finish it.
For Narnia, guys.
Yeah, for Elvenwood.
Thanks, guys.
I like the dude from Fresno's shithead
because you had to drive down here.
So I understand that one.
The other ones, I don't know what's going on with
necessarily, but people bring
real personal stuff to it.
Tom, your podcast, Come to Papa?
Come to Papa, yep.
And what else you got going on?
That's it.
Website for road dates?
Yeah, tompapa.com for road dates.
When is this airing?
I knew it now, I should.
I'm doing Thousand Oaks this weekend.
I'm doing a theater up there.
Really? You're going to go out to T.O.?
Yep.
That's where you guys drove in from?
Yeah.
Right on.
We're going to rock it.
We're going to rock it up there.
Don't go too far,
because you end up in Camarillo
at a mental institution.
And you're always hilarious
when you're on the Opie and Jim Norton show on SiriusXM.
So people should listen to you on there.
Thank you.
Thank you for being here, dude.
It was fun, really fun.
Thanks, guys.
And thank you, Mary.
Watch for Rich Summer on Grey's Anatomy in like three or four weeks.
Yep.
And what else is going on?
The movie Hello, My Name is Doris, which is...
Yeah, I love that movie.
Somehow magically, we just...
I mean, they made it for about $6,
and it just hit $10 million,
which is very exciting for us.
That's very cool.
Very exciting.
I think Sally Fields should get another Oscar nod for it.
Hopefully, it's not too small and too early to make it.
I'm very happy that she is getting all the recognition she's getting.
She's so great in the movie.
How is Spacey in it?
The guy's an asshole.
all the recognition she's getting.
She's so great in the movie.
How is Spacey in it?
The guy's an asshole.
This shit had even had a change-their-mind situation where they scratched one out
and then went a different way with it.
Tony's going to be out on tour
with Motion City Soundtrack.
Felice Navi Pod is the podcast.
I was a guest on it once.
A lot of fun.
I haven't done it in a while.
They're going to come back soon, though, I think.
Okay, cool.
Yeah, the tour starts.
Just in time for Christmas.
Exactly.
It's all year.
It's all year.
Tour starts early May.
It's going to go on.
Not even all the dates are announced yet, but this is the final farewell tour.
More dates are still coming, so if you don't see your city, don't tweet me and whine that we're not coming there, because there's more coming.
Okay, cool.
Yeah.
And also, I will say I am actually producing Julian Loves Music.
Oh, yeah.
That's a good thing to bring up.
The spinoff podcast that Joni loves Chachi to this show is Julian Loves Music.
And he's three episodes in now or two?
Like two and a half
kind of.
There was like a little teaser.
Oh yeah.
And so now they're like
they're going about monthly
but hopefully
they'll pick up the pace
on the other side.
Yeah they're going to try
and pick that up
but then I'll be gone
so maybe I won't be producing it.
I don't know.
Oh that's right.
Yeah.
You just said
I'm going out on tour.
Oh and also by the way
Well I produced the ones
that are out.
I produced the
and then I'll be coming back.
So far.
Yeah.
Okay.
But thank you for doing that.
And thank you for being here.
One more time for all of my guests, Chris Mancini, Tom Papa, Rich Summer, Tony Thaxton.
And as always, and you guys can come get your name tags back.
I'm going to throw them rudely on the floor.
Drivers on the 101 are shitheads.
CIA director
John Brennan
is a shithead.
So,
Booty Paul,
I never would have guessed
you're pro-waterboarding.
And mean people
who yell at you
on the phone
are a shithead.
Tell me about it.
