pk and 510 how you guys doing pretty good woke up really yeah i took a nap in the middle of the day
my sleep schedule is such right now that i'm like i don't know i tried to go to sleep but i don't
get my eight hours i sleep three hours and then i'm like up and i'm up at like six in the morning
or some shit so i was up from like 6 a.m till noon and i slept from like noon until now now like an hour ago you know but i'm still
like hung over i'm curious maybe in your new place is it not dark in the bedroom in the morning oh
it's we've talked about this before i black my bed but you move a lot okay well we've literally
talked to this exact precise conversation um like about the new place okay yeah yeah like verbatim that's my even this part
i get to watch shows where i remind conversations more than once for the first time this is the
third time um but uh but i i black my windows out of my bedrooms that's a mistake i'm not
gonna say my part of this same conversation again but yeah you just need to like don't nap like napping is for children it throws i've never
had a nap that i woke up from old people and they maybe but like children naps for children henry
ford is that what he said did he believe in naps that would be some industrious get back in the
minds nonsense i bet for all of human existence naps were very common when we look at like high performance athletes they're they're
getting a nap in all right i'm using my own bigotry i haven't done i haven't crunched the numbers on
naps but i know that boomers i've never taken telling you that no boomers are all about naps
they're all like fucking 75 well now they are but but look for it for someone young to have my nap
no naps i always feel weird and discombobulated when i wake up from a nap i never feel rested
it doesn't matter if it's a one hour nap or a three hour nap or however long it is i wake up
feeling like what day is it and then i know my schedule is going to suck the rest of the day
like i'm not if i was up too late the before, it's a fucking guarantee I'm going to be up that late again now.
Sleeping from noon to two or whatever the fucking standard nap time is.
Yeah, I like my naps.
I think they're essential.
Get all that sleep.
Get all those brain chemicals recharged.
I do feel a little bit discombobulated for the first hour.
But I chugged a coffee
so i should be good for an hour of one hour of nap that discombobulates you and now you're going
to be up till 3 a.m again i mean grinding the chinese tarkov i assume uh no just just doing
stuff just watching tv watching movies and stuff i watched this long long long documentary about
the shining uh this morning dude you sent that in our group chat and i was I watched this long, long, long documentary about The Shining this morning.
Dude, you sent that in our group chat and I was like,
oh, this must be a fun clip. I opened
it up two hours into as long
as the actual Shining.
I was like, I don't know if I want to watch
this in the WhatsApp chat
for the next two and a half hours. Yeah, you're going to open that
up on a PC somewhere. I watch it on TV.
I love The Shining, so maybe I'll like it.
I watch TV on my like i love the shining so maybe i'll like it i watch tv
on my like living room big screen tv like all the time it's probably my most used app for watching
stuff and uh that's two hours and 40 minutes or something like you said about the shining and
sort of decoding the some of the stuff that's in there but he's like keep in mind this is the
introduction to my 27 part series on The Shining.
And I'm like, fuck, yeah, dude, this is my kind of guy.
The tism has eaten him alive.
Like he is all about The Shining.
That's all about The Shining.
How much could there possibly be just about The Shining?
Just enormous amounts, just layers and layers and layers.
I know Stanley Kubrick was a very unique, interesting guy.
I wonder if he's even right.
I know Stanley Kubrick was a very unique, interesting guy.
I wonder if he's even right. It reminds me of eighth grade English papers where the teacher told you about symbolism and other horse shit that the author probably didn't intend to put in there.
I just can't imagine a 27-part breakdown.
The introduction to his 27-part breakdown is two hours plus.
The movie's two hours or an hour and a half why would it take 60 hours to talk about the shining because it's going to take us five
minutes to talk about each sometimes each frame each frame is uh there's stuff going on um when
you look at the uh the books that are on the tables like the same book will pop up in multiple scenes.
It's clear that this isn't just junk in the background ever.
Okay, because that was my assumption.
No, there's no junk in the background.
That painting on the wall, it's there for a specific reason.
If you look at what that painting is,
because they're not just like motel art.
It's like this is the painting of the Herculean pillars.
We see Hercules come up here,
here, here, here, here, here, here, and here. What's another name for that city? Herculean,
right next to Mount Vesuvius. What was Mount Vesuvius? It was supposedly given Hercules'
essence. He goes through these just so in-depth where he zoomed in and figured out what that book on the table was and like
that's popular popular mechanics it's also here here here here and here it's like whoa why is
popular mechanics moving around everywhere it's not like it's just random props no it's not i
promise you it's not he was notorious for what kyle is saying like among like putting tons of
little things in the background and,
and doing his own little messaging that way.
There's a bunch of people who think like,
and I've done zero research other than seeing internet commenters on it,
but people who are like,
he left clues to,
to show that he,
he was the director of the fake moon landing in the shining and the,
uh,
eyes wide shut,
stuff like that.
There are a lot of Apollo 11 stuff.
I mean, Danny's wearing that Apollo 11 shirt,
and there's a few other things.
But one of the big ones for me is, oh, my God, Abbey Road.
Abbey Road, the Beatles album, is present throughout the entire film.
If you play Abbey Road while you watch the movie,
it's shockingly
sunk up to key moments
throughout the film. And also,
you know on the Abbey Road cover where the
Beatles are walking in a line across the
road? That's all I know about it.
He mimics that
three or four times with the characters.
And the order that the movie's characters are in matters like all right she's standing in ringo's spot here's ringo's song
what's he singing about there and it's like oh what the fuck is this why would he be this in
depth and then even stephen king with the novel that it's based on like um the page numbers matter
in stephen king's novel like like things happen on a specific page for a specific reason. Scenes
will be 237 seconds
long. Yeah, stuff like this.
This shot happens
multiple times. It's not just like,
oh, there was that one time where they walked in single file.
It's like four different times they walk in
single file like this.
Yeah, there you go. There's another one.
Nice work, Zach.
No, it's fascinating the abbey
road stuff's interesting and also they'll play the what they'll do is they'll play the movie um
forwards and backwards simultaneously simultaneously and overlay yeah and if you
look at what's what's there it's like oh my god why is it matching how could you get it to match
why would he make it match yeah if you played the movie forward and backwards at the
exact same time it ends at the same time get out why would that be why would that happen he designed
it that way no i i like stanley kubrick a lot because he did that stuff um and there's a lot
of filmmaking techniques that i don't quite understand that it's fun to sort of,
I'd say I don't understand most film techniques that it's fun.
You know,
you probably,
you probably do,
but it's a,
I love those documentaries.
There's another one called room two 37.
That's only like an hour or two long about the shining that I've watched
before.
And they touch on a lot of the moon landing stuff.
They point out that the layout,
the layout of the hotel
is like magical you'll make too many rights like you're wait you're back in the same room you just
left you're in like a pocket dimension when you go in here um and what the guy i watched today
did is they took he takes the hotel and he lays it into grids and columns or rows and columns and
you find out that um multiple things are happening in the same
area like i'm having like seinfeld's apartment it couldn't exist in real life oh there's stuff
like that for sure yeah um but but he'll uh he'll point out that sometimes the actors aren't saying
what you think they're saying there's a part where the black man is taking him around um early on in the movie he's like want some ice cream doc and he's saying i scream e-y-e-i and then scream and some people
be like it's an old black man he's just saying i scream the way he says i scream but you look way
in the background on the wall and there's this little piece of paper that says i scream and it's
like yeah he is saying I scream.
And then when he opens the storage room, he doesn't say
storage room. It's right here
is the story room. But he says it
so fast with that black man accent,
that story room. It's like, oh, that's just how
old black men talk.
But no, he's saying story room.
And when you look at what happens...
Were there interviews with that actor where he's like,
when Stanley approached me, I delivered the lines as I'm speaking now.
And he said, you're going to have to black it up.
But first, I have to make a little offense.
I'm a Juilliard-trained actor.
I think The Shining is my favorite.
And then Godfather 2 after that.
And then I don't know what to do after that with 3, 4, and 5 and all that shit.
But I really appreciate how complex and complicated and over complicated and convoluted
in some ways and you're convinced it's all true taylor when you were saying well not all of it's
true taylor when you were saying seinfeld's apartment couldn't exist yeah were you implying
that it was just a like photography necessity to make this place or do you think they really
designed this hotel to exist in a way that can't be i i can see
that totally with kubrick like he was a thousand percent for for like putting things in every movie
people are like oh he's a genius no no he's an actual like one of the smartest people who's ever
lived genius he's like a chess he's good at everything he was a savant yeah did any of the
moon stuff make sense or were you like then this oh i've never so i think he's he's the moon thing was a big cultural thing and it's also a big part of
abbey road and places and so um i think that he's referencing the moon landing and he and it's it's
in there i mean he's wearing a shirt says apollo 11 with a rock and everything but i think one of
the things that's being heavily hinted at is that dann's whole thing is that he was molested by Jack Nicholson,
his father,
Jack Nicholson has been fucking Danny's mouth.
And,
and like,
that's what's going on.
That's a big part of what's going on.
And of course,
like Danny's little friend,
Tony,
Tony lives in my mouth.
You can't see him.
Cause he hides in my stomach.
Like Tony is mentioned in Abbey row continuously,
Tony,
like, like there's a whole thing.
I don't want to believe that Mr. Torrance was molesting his son.
Mr. Torrance is reading Playgirl magazine in the first scene you see him in.
I just want to believe that he's a normal evil guy, not a pedophile evil guy. He's more like him.
But the rooms that can't be like those are 100 intentionally
this is like okay he he wouldn't make those mistakes like he's made rooms that are impossible
on purpose um he's he's he's done it for for a reason man i need to re-watch the shining now
so i can be on my phone and not notice any of this i love it i that's some movies i will watch them
yeah it's 2001 a space odyssey like you really like that one or no because i've only ever started
i've started that movie i bet four to six times in my life and no it's just like i i just happen
upon it when it's like 11 30 at night and i'll start it and I'll get to like it's just kicking off like they're on the space station and I'll be like, all right, time for bed.
And I'd never gotten past that.
Yeah, the so 2001 A Space Odyssey is basically about aliens have come down with the finger of God and given man consciousness.
the finger of God and given man consciousness.
And they've also given him a challenge with their obelisks that it's basically a come and see me when you can kind of message since the dawn of time.
And the movie is about going and seeing what it is.
And they find the obelisk on the moon.
They follow it to Jupiter.
They go into the black hole and he meets meets God. Or whatever you want to call
the aliens who created us. And then he
reverts back to some sort of superchild,
you know, and that full series of life
goes back to Earth. And
that's all sandwiched in between
a murderous AI
who we're using for the first time to
fly our ship because it's foolproof.
But the AI is like,
it makes a mistake. Like, not a huge mistake, but it makes one. because it's foolproof but the ai is like it makes a mistake like not a huge mistake
but it makes one and it's like the astronauts are talking about it they go into their little capsule
where it can't hear them and it's like he just made a mistake they're like yeah and he doesn't
want to admit he made a mistake i think we need to take how down for a few hours and do some
maintenance and then you cut to Hal and that little red eye,
and he's reading their lips through the fucking little porthole.
So now the AI is out to kill them.
So you've got that in between all the God stuff.
And there's just so much symbolism going through with the obelisk.
It's constantly being copied and framed in the center that,
I don't know what the ratio is of that thing,
but it's repeated over
you know what i did notice and this probably isn't as significant in 2001 a space odyssey
because i've only seen the beginning part like half the first half hour like five times
is there's like two apes when they're all in those ape costumes dancing around in the beginning
everybody's committed to the bit except for like
two guys who are like acting almost too cool for school like they're not getting as low and as
monkey okay ape like as the others given it all but i really i don't like that that kubrick should
have immediately shut that down and be like oh i'm sorry do you not do you not want to be here
do you not want to be a part of my epic movie are you too good to ape out right now are you too good to yeah oh juilliard you went to juilliard fucking chimp it up motherfucker
you're like juilliard you're fired you'll never be involved yeah the one i haven't seen because
so 2001 is slow but i have a great appreciation for how good those special effects are for
whatever that was 69 71 somewhere in there it's
like this looks pretty fucking real this looks good the miniatures are great and uh when they
do the zero gravity stuff you know it's a little thing now to make a pen float by in a movie and
the actor grabs it but when there's no cgi and you know somebody's literally floating that pen
on a wire or compositing it or something it's it's all in camera so i appreciate that stuff i
guess barry lyndon is the one that i know i don't i i'm not sophisticated enough to appreciate or
really enjoy so i haven't watched i've never seen barry lyndon i've never heard of that movie it is
a stanley cooper movie it's a big one it's a period piece. It's like 17th century France maybe?
It's like he went back in time in a time machine and created 17th century France
or wherever they are because the costumes
and the rooms and everything are absurd.
I've never
seen it.
He's only made so many. This whole conversation has made me
like Kubrick less.
I'm so bored.
I'm like, oh my god, you put subtle
details in the background not to be
noticed?
Come on, Pacific Rim 2, that's what Woody wants.
Get it harder.
Where's Iron Man? He doesn't have an elbow
rocket, Taylor. No elbow rocket?
I get what you're saying, but also
I'm not wrong.
Movies aren't supposed to be about the books
sitting on the nightstands.
They're not supposed to be?
I've declared
movies are supposed to be entertaining. They're supposed to be a plot.
Maybe even eye-opening and make you think
about something new. Maybe it enriches you a little
bit emotionally. But
a scavenger hunt of an Abbey
Road, whatever.
And I'm still not convinced
how many of these things are intentional.
Now, I can be convinced.
I'm kind of winning me over.
But good gosh.
Like the thing about playing Abbey Road and having it sync up.
I wonder what would happen if you did that to Little Mermaid and tried to find connections.
Would you find some?
You do have that mentality to be a skeptic.
It's funny.
This guy points to his wife as a scientist and he's like,
she's my Scully along,
along the way for this.
And he keeps throwing up pictures of Scully.
And he's like,
or she didn't believe that.
And he got,
he like wears her down as part of the video with like,
here's the fifth example.
Here's the sixth.
Oh yeah.
We're on example eight,
by the way.
And it's like,
we're not done with the movie yet though.
And when he, when he turns the hotel into a game board of rows and columns, we're on example eight by the way and it's like we're not done with the movie yet though and when
he when he turns the hotel into a game board of rows and columns it's he he only did it to like
for his own like keeping track of things but then things started popping up um i i really like the
shining i like the complexity of it i don't i didn't know about the abbey road thing i don't
like the beatles that much um. So I haven't listened to
most of that album. It's a shitty album. It's
their last album, I believe, right?
He goes in there whining about
wanting to leave and
what's his name? Lennon is
screaming about his love for Yoko Ono
and I don't like that one.
But yeah,
I love those long-form documentaries
about movies. That's one of my
favorite things to take in i watch more like documentaries and video essays about movies
than i do movies probably i've just looked at amir it's not my favorite either i like here
comes the sun of course yeah um i watch i agree with you that there is definitely more to it in The Shining than if you just watch it as a horror movie.
And I would rather a movie be hard to interpret and have little nuggets like that in it than one that's just too straightforward.
Like, it's more fun.
And it makes rewatches better.
Like, if it's too straightforward and it's just, you know america versus the evil captain soviet or whatever
it's like yeah there's no reason to read that would have been such a better villain for him
if captain soviet had been a thing he's is that not it seems like a fucking layup there wasn't a
soviet version of it was the red skull right like like um so i guess sort of that yeah actually
yeah it's the red skull but they killed him off so long ago, I forgot.
They did 38 movies or something now, Taylor.
So they killed off his main arch nemesis,
maybe in the first movie of the entire Marvel series.
That was cool, Hardy.
You should probably keep the nemesis around for longer than a cup of coffee.
He comes back.
He was in whatever was right before Endgame.
Oh, Hugo Weaving was him?
Yeah, Hugo Weaving plays Red Skull.
Oh, well, he could act circles around the Captain America guy.
What's his name?
Chris Evans.
Chris Evans.
Yeah, Hugo Weaving is a great actor.
When Hugo Weaving was doing The Matrix,
Captain America was doing one of those parody movies
with whipped cream on his cock.
Oh, like the scary movies?
You know the one where the guy walks in and he's got the whipped cream on his cock oh like um the scary movies you know the one where the guy walks
in and he's got the whipped cream on his like boobs and dick instead of the girl in the movie
it's one of those parody movies that did that it's like a movie or some shit yeah and do you
remember i mean it was like high school era for me where every single summer and halloween season
it'd be like it's 300 but carmen electra's in it and it's fucking retarded that movie's called
meet the spartans i was like i was the perfect age to want to see that and it upset me like at
how stupid and bad it was i never never even watched and i was like fucking 16 i should i
was the demo which movie is this meet the spart Spartans and the cavalcade of similar films that came out in the same way.
What he's talking about is the early 2000s parody movie explosion that spawned from the success of Scary Movie,
which is the parody to not just Scream, though that's the primary one, but mostly all horror movies.
And those were good.
Scary Movie 1 and 2, and maybe even 3.
Little Hand was the second one, right?
Yeah, that's 2.
That's where they go to the mansion.
Yeah, they're good, funny movies,
and they made hundreds of millions of dollars,
and the Wayans Brothers careers took off.
That's how they got White Girls and shit like that.
But it spawned all those other parody movies like Meet the Spartans.
Are they actually good, though?
Because last time I saw Scary Movie 1
I was sincerely probably
15. I watched Scary Movie
2 about
6 months ago
because I think I was cooking
and I did a strong hand thing
to my girlfriend and we both started laughing
and I was like, oh you get that one? She's like, yeah
I watched that when I was in high school. I was like, alright.
Went back and watched that movie and it was still school. I went back and watched that movie.
It was still funny. There's a couple of dated jokes.
She'd get my Spongebob references.
There you go.
There's no Spongebob references in my household.
I hate whenever a Spongebob reference is.
If you were to hand her something
and she drops it, you need to go,
firmly grasp it, like
Patrick does, and she will laugh
because she'll get it.
You don't know the culture.
No, thanks.
I don't want to.
I do feel a little left out every time a SpongeBob reference comes up.
Like we were playing Scribbleo and the guy starts drawing SpongeBob.
And I'm the, everybody has guessed SpongeBob.
And I'm like, I don't know.
Yellow house.
Yellow house with teeth.
Tall yellow house with teeth.
With holes in it cheese swiss cheese man
you have the spongebob cultural blindness of someone 10 years older than yourself yeah i i
just i just know 10 years older to have kids i just don't want it no that's true then someone
no i guess you're both their modern day kids to spongebob it's an adult cartoon no no i mean you know what i hear you say it but it i feel like it operates on two threads
you know there's some jokes in there for adults and kids yeah i mean i didn't watch a ton of
spongebob i caught the beginning of it then i aged out of it but it was it was it was the
funniest show on tv is like a young kid it was wildly popular i don't understand
why did your kids like it at all or was it kind of missed that uh man they watched it a little
it just wasn't my cup of tea i like the video game the ps2 game i never played the video game
holy shit oh fuck i remember i could i could picture it now i did play that video game did
you yeah you you collect like a bunch of fry-related items because Spongebob's
a fry cook. Back in that day, I was the
supreme ruler of video games in
this house. You hand me the controller when you're stuck.
How does he fry things
under the sea, though? Don't worry about it.
He
is the one. He cooks the Krabby Patties
at the Krusty Krab. Under an open flame,
Kyle. Any other questions?
He's the fry cook, and it's his dream to be a fry cook.
He has no aspirations beyond it.
I saw a thing on Reddit, and it was like,
remembering back to when my older brother convinced me to touch the stove
because the blue fire was cold.
You or your brothers ever pull any shenanigans like that?
Like, oh, yeah, that blue fire's cold.
Grab it. your brothers ever pull any shenanigans like that like oh yeah that blue fire is cold grab it no no
i i did i got in trouble for melting a gi joe foot on the stove once because i didn't believe
yeah it was one of the you know the coils the metal coils and so i was just pushing it up against
there because like my mom was telling me it's super hot taylor don't touch it and then i don't
remember what i don't remember if i touch the
stove and burn my finger first or if i let's go with that i burn my finger first and i was like
that is unbelievably hot and then i melted part of the gi joe on it and it got plastic everywhere
my mom was was pissed about it it's smart though it's the scientific method right if you just
conduct one test you don't know for sure yeah and i literally used a gi joe toy because
gi joe was not a big part of my uh my troop collection like because as you know being a
young boy like i'd have my wars with my action figures but it was like it was its own marvel
crossover you know the street sharks were allied with the ninja turtles were allied with bane with
the cords that came out of his back, and then
Batman obviously on the other team, and he's
joined by the Power Rangers. You've got a multi-dimensional force
here. Okay. And G.I. Joe,
even at that age, I'm like, a regular
ass army man? He's
going to hang out with the street sharks?
Not likely. With a club foot?
Get over the fucked up foot.
He's all fucking melted. My foot got melted
in Nam.
Dude, I'd pretend they were fighting in jungles.
There was an atrium in our house that had a tree in it and mulch and stuff.
And so I would make huge messes down there
making mounds of mulch and battle simulate
its own little Vietnam.
It was fun.
I got in trouble almost every day for that
because I made a huge amount of messes.
I don't think I played as much pretend as you.
I definitely did that thing with army men on one side of the floor and on the other.
And like Skeletor is going to fight fucking He-Man and He-Man brought Rambo with him and all that shit.
Which is crazy that those movies even had toys.
Like the fact that Rambo had a line of toys, that was an R-rated movie.
And like when you consider the sequels, that's an R-rated
movie about killing gooks.
Indiscriminately. And torture.
And PTSD.
What were you pretending?
Kill!
Just battling? Was everyone in canon?
All the cops were after you.
In canon? I was 4 or 5.
I wasn't playing pretend last year.
There was a head canon. In my head, there was cannon.
Come on, you were.
Yeah, but not with my army, man.
I've got a computer now.
I do my pretend on there.
Touche.
I don't think I really had a narrative going.
Maybe I did have the Castle of Greyskull,
and I think maybe I would do a thing
where Skeletor had captured like Princess Peach or some shit and the boys had to get her back.
Like maybe I would recreate basically Mario Brothers.
But, you know, I don't feel as creative as you were since I'm using Mario Brothers reference, you know, storyline.
Oh, dude, there would be.
I was like five and there would be like canonical ideological differences in my factions.
And like obviously the newest action figure is my favorite and the most powerful.
And so I still remember when I got that Bane and it actually wasn't the one with the cords.
It was him in the black tank top, like jacked out of his mind.
He still had the little face thing on, but the big cords weren't there.
And I got him and I didn't even know the Batman universe that well.
I was just like, this guy's jacked and he's huge and he's awesome and he was such a threat to that atrium
in conquering it that the street sharks and the power rangers had to settle their differences
in order to take him on and then i would like i would play out little different versions and
and then play out the one further that was more fun. And so I'd like have Bane win
against all of them. And then it's like, well,
that's not very fun, you know, because now he's just
an unconquerable titan and I'm running out of
toys. And so then you have
Bane lose and then he gets thrown in prison.
What's he do in prison?
He meets up with
I don't fucking know.
Cobra. Joker.
One of the street sharks. The Cobra commander was in there. You got a real problem. I can't fucking know. Cobra. Joker. Joker. One of the street sharks.
The Cobra Commander was in there.
You got a real problem.
I can't overstate the importance of the street shark characters in many of these.
They were jacked sharks.
They looked like sharks.
You don't know about street sharks?
These are teenagers who got turned into shark men, and now they swim beneath the streets fighting crime.
They wore torn-off shorts and were like like had huge arms and i remember having
a special place in my heart for the hammerhead version because i imagined him being bullied by
the other like the great white or you had like if you had a little empathy for his
you know a little extra large head yeah i did i don't know what it was about that one.
His eyes were so far apart.
There they are.
Look at it.
The red guy, obviously the alpha male.
And the street shark with the hammerhead.
Man, this is a bad angle for him, Zach.
You're doing him dirty here.
He's the only one not grimacing.
Can you find, Zach, the action figure version of these guys? I hope you can.
Hammerhead looks a little better in that.
Man, I loved...
I didn't even like the Street Shark
show very much, but
my grandma was... There he is!
There he is! Look at those arms.
I think I was huge.
I think you can fucking kill it on Tinder.
All four of those guys were a tough
customer to handle.
I can't believe you didn't.
I remember the cartoon well.
I watched quite a bit of it.
I remember the pilot episode of the cartoon.
I genuinely do.
I think their dad dies and there's maybe
some sort of accident.
I just remember them
they swam under the streets. Their fins would would stick up through the asphalt it made no sense uh they
definitely weren't my favorite i like batman the most batman the animated series with mark hamill
as the joker uh in the early 90s was so good it was a little batman beyond action figure where he
was in like the red and black uh that's the faggot Batman. Is it?
Yeah. He's literally gay.
He didn't win a lot of battles in my
headcanon. Yeah.
He married the Joker in the canon.
He got buttfucked.
He was the bottom. Yeah, he's the bottom.
He got owned by Bane. He got owned by
I'm trying to remember what other
Batman Beyond.
It's like a teenage Dick Grayson batman or something i think
no i like the real batman um and it's also sort of gothic looking i don't know taylor you know
yeah the real one who's now yeah fucking bruce wayne not a real person super Superman was never, ever involved in my battles.
Of course not.
You wouldn't have any problems if Superman was.
You wouldn't have any problems.
Even as like a five-year-old, I was like, no, I don't want Superman involved.
His powers make him uninteresting.
There's a lack of ability to create conflict around a character with no inherent drawbacks outside of their own psychological damage.
You know, we only say this. Young we only say imagination he's susceptible to magic that's that's true but not
that kind of it's not just that like like the whole argument that batman that superman's a
boring character i get it it's funny but it's only because you've mostly seen like the movies
and like main mainstream properties and when a studio is going to put a few hundred billion on the line, who do you want the villain to be?
Cyclops man?
He can defeat Superman.
No, no.
Pick one of the two or three.
Zod. It's Zod.
But we already did Zod every time.
It's Zod. He's Superman's villain.
Could we do Brainiac?
No. Zod.
There are a lot of villains
that give Superman a hard
time or just
nicks him out and he needs
buddies to come help him. The magic is
a thing. I think
was it Doomsday?
Doomsday kills him. Doomsday
beats him to death. It's not like Doomsday
kills him because
some third party intervenes or
Superman was weak that day. Doomsday just beats Superman some third party intervenes or like Superman was weak that day.
Doomsday just beat Superman to death with his bare hands.
I mean, they bring him back and everything.
Like, I don't I don't know who Doomsday is, but superheroes got to be the lamest superhero ever.
Superman has to be the lamest superhero ever.
He was the first one.
What happens in general is characters age they get more and more powerful
i mean i mean uh as stories are written for them they discover new heights to their powers
be better phrasing and then once you do that it's hard to take it back so over time they become so
wildly super powerful superman can like go backwards in time by going fast enough. Other random
bullshit, I can't tell you
the absolute limits of the thing.
I don't think the time travel thing is...
When he pushes planets around,
that implies a level
of pushing force that is
outrageous when he starts fighting
regular people again.
Yeah.
There's three or four
Superman in canon. Maybe four. regular people again yeah um so there's three or four there's three or four super superman um
in in canon maybe four there's like the the classic the golden age um there's this there's
a couple versions of them that are significantly weaker and therefore significantly more interesting
um like there's one of them who's like look i lived in a car holy shit you suck
brian who was it we i sent you the
video the day of the the the strong man fighting the five guys and they're all in armor yeah that
was brian shaw no brian shaw's the eddie hall like eddie hall yeah eddie hall puts on full medieval
armor and and they're in like a fighting ring and he's he's like how many of us do you think you could take he's like what a minute five and like five dudes come at him as hard as they can also wearing medieval armor
and they're all just punching each other in the head as hard and fast as they can
and they eventually just swarm him and overwhelm him and get him to the ground do you know how big
you have to be to be like six three and and look like a dwarf like to be that wide like to be to be like six, three and, and look like a dwarf, like to be that wide,
like to be so wide undercutting your own height.
It's surprising he won because height helps in a lot of those events.
Lady Hall never won. Oh, I thought you meant at the fight.
Oh, I'm sorry.
It's surprising that he was ever world's strongest man when taller guys have
such an advantage with things like putting rocks on a pedestal or throwing a rock over a pole vault bar or something like that.
Dude, I love the events in the world's strongest man because it's just like guys drunk at a bar being like, you know what else we should make him do?
Like literally like throw a keg straight up over
your own head like i saw brian shaw being like i'm practicing my technique for this and i'm like
interesting are you sure your technique isn't being seven feet tall and it's like that seems
like part of your time i don't think those can't be full kegs like you would get at a liquor store
because no i've bought those before and used them as targets
and they're heavy like like i don't know how many gallons are in there i would probably
embarrass myself if i guess but it's got to be like 15 no i'm at 45 i'm way off they're super
heavy if they're well yeah well imagine a 50 gallon barrel it's it's way smaller than a 50 gallon 55 gallon barrel you know like a burn barrel um 15.5 what'd you say 15 yeah he said yeah well done so so it's aluminum it's and when
they're empty it's fairly light i would say the whole thing weighs 10 pounds uh empty and then
eight pounds a gallon for the beer so 80 120 120 it's like 120 pounds is that right they're not throwing 120 pounds no
i just remember when i would get one i'd be like fuck this thing's heavy like they don't look this
heavy in the movies um but they're not throwing 120 pounds so probably about 45 pounds i'm not
watching that that reacher show anymore because you guys said it was it's retarded now but um i saw a post on twitter that like they need a bad guy who's like big
enough to intimidate like to be scary to a guy reacher's size zach can you pull up this body
builder called the dutch giant they they hired him to be the nemesis because they it's like in
the lore i guess this guy's like you know there's a guy 150 pounds of solid muscle bigger than Reacher.
And I'm like, well, that person doesn't exist.
He does exist.
Really?
And he's a bodybuilder from the Netherlands.
I've seen him.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's seven foot two.
You need to see his legs.
You need to see his legs too because he's built like no seven footer I've ever seen.
He has like normal, not normal, but like what you would want, ideal.
There you go.
My God.
Show a picture of Wembin Yana flexing because that's what seven foot tall people are supposed to look like.
Yeah, no.
Can you imagine this guy in the NBA just bullying people?
Yeah.
Dude, there's a guy not far from that, Steve something, white guy.
And it's hilarious.
He's like the enforcer on the court no matter who else is on the court.
But he's not that violent.
You know, he is when he's, like, throwing elbows and shit.
But whenever there's someone else wants to fight, he just grabs them like they're taking Taylor's parking spot and walks them elsewhere.
And he's done it so many times.
He's like Zion Williamson.
This is what a seven footers is supposed to look like.
Oh, my goodness.
He looks so hungry.
He does.
That guy's had a really good rookie year.
He has to weigh more than that now.
There's no way.
So the knock on him was that he was too skinny to be an NBA player.
So that picture is him jacked up.
Like he went to fix that.
That is him post getting in shape.
You still think I'm too skinny?
Yeah, yeah.
Put your shirt on, bro.
Turn sideways, you disappear.
You must be so chilly.
He's always cold.
He's like an Italian greyhound, always chilly.
He's one of those dogs that needs a jacket all the time.
He's really cool.
I think Kyle would like him.
So these NBA players, they do a day where they give back to the community.
Hear me out, Kyle.
I saw him.
do a day where they give back to the community.
Hear me out, Kyle.
I saw him.
He does a talk to middle school kids about
dark matter.
He's explaining dark matter to children.
I heard him explain it.
It's this matter that we know exists
because we can see its impact on
other kinds of matter, but we can't directly
observe that kind of matter.
He just lays it out in a way
better than I can. I'm like this guy's serious like science nerd like yeah i was hoping he would
be giving a speech like totally unironically where he's like follow your dreams people told me i
would never make it in the nba but look me now. He's so tall.
Oh, he's 7'4".
Every day since I was
a tall, tall child,
people have told me,
you have to be in the NBA or you're a failure.
When I was born at only 3 foot.
When I was playing basketball
in third grade, I can still remember
my coach craning
his neck to look at me and saying,
you'll never be anything in our sport.
No, no.
He's a French guy, and he speaks with that French accent,
and he's pretty cool.
Did you guys know he was French?
Yes.
Yeah, I think he was born and raised in France.
Zach, correct me if I have that wrong.
And there's all these other stories, too. Like, he was born and raised in France. Zach, correct me if I have that wrong. And there's all these other stories too.
Like he was a entering rookie.
I don't think he was even a rookie yet,
but there was so much hype around him that he was invited to be on stage
with somebody.
I think it might've been like Metallica or I'm going to fuck it up.
It doesn't matter who.
Anyway, he's like, yeah, that sounds amazing.
Can my team come?
And they're like, no, just you.
He goes, oh, well, I'm out.
If you don't want my whole team,
you don't get me. You don't want all the guys
who are never going to make it in D1.
Much less the NBA.
This is his NBA team, I think.
They only wanted him. He was the man of the
moment. Yeah, his fucking high school team probably
wouldn't pass a security test.
Dude, I used to think the best job in sports
would be like backup quarterback, backup goalie, someone who doesn't have to work that much and you still
make a lot of money like these nba contracts are so ridiculous and it's a sport where you can just
play the same guy for lebron james is 51 years old and he plays fucking 45 minutes a night.
There are people on the bench who like go games without playing seemingly. And they're making like $15 million a year.
The Hurricanes goalie used to play so much.
Every year he'd have the most games.
He wasn't the best goalie, but he'd have the most games played.
And the answer, 75 games he played out of 82.
Imagine being his backup.
That would be a great job.
His name was, he's alive.
His name's Cam Ward.
He's not in the league anymore.
But he basically, he won the Stanley Cup with Carolina his very first season.
And Carolina not being the biggest hockey market was just like,
this is our guy forever now.
And then he has the most middling
whatever career, and
they just keep playing him.
He played 74 games one year.
He's the second place guy on most games in a year.
That's insane.
He was playing Brodeur-level games,
but not with Brodeur-level
skill.
This is a huge fight this
weekend, Woody.
Islam Mijakayev. kill this uh which is a good huge fight this weekend woody uh islam um oh um wait am i getting am i saying it wrong it's it's it's the 155 pound belt poirier's fighting um oh is that this weekend
islam makachev or something close to that yeah well there is a guy named islam makachev but but
i i get him confused with...
I get the hair-lipped guy confused with the one who looks like an Amish retard.
The one you're going for is Islam Makachev.
Okay, that's the Amish retard.
So he, Taylor, is...
The last time he lost was...
I think they said Obama was in office or something.
It's crazy the last time he lost a fight. He's only
ever lost one. He's been the champion
basically Khabib retired.
Has he been fighting though? Like regularly?
Like every year
he's beaten everybody there is to beat. That's
the thing. Like he's beaten all
comers in that division. He's
beaten the best of the best in his division
and the division below him
and now he's got to fight Dustin Poirier, who's like the great white American hope, if you could pick one.
He's like a Louisiana white dude, like an American guy.
He's got that.
I was going to say he had a black kid, but that's Michael Chandler, I think.
Right.
He's that adopted the black child.
I think that is him.
Yeah.
Dustin Poirier is the hot sauce, man.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hot sauce. And this is like Dustin Poirier is the hot sauce man. Yeah, he sells hot sauce.
And this is like Dustin Poirier's last at bat.
Because if he does this, there's no getting back in line.
Because you get a title shot and you lose,
you kind of go to the back of the line.
And you've got to fight your way through usually two more,
maybe three guys.
And then the other two or three who were alongside the two or three,
you'd be probably lost and fell back as well.
To add what Kyle's saying, if it's the same
champ that beat you, it's
extra hard to get a shot against that
guy again. Unless the first
fight is this war that people
are like, that was the fight of the year!
Come on! They'll do it right over.
They'll throw you right back in there.
But if they don't like you,
that was it. That was your shot.
Or if there weren't any questions.
You know, like these two fought.
Dude one beat dude two.
Dude one
beat him ball fight long.
Anyway, yeah. If there weren't any
questions, there's nothing to answer.
I think I called it maybe a year ago
that Conor McGregor is always one fight
away from a championship.
And you were like, at what weight?
I was like, 170.
Yes, at 170.
Did I argue against that?
I don't know what I was thinking.
If Conor beats Chandler, who is also a fighter.
I think Conor's last win was 2016 or something.
You got to go back to crazy times.
Chandler hasn't fought in, in years now,
basically Taylor Conner.
If you fight Conor McGregor,
you become a multi multimillionaire.
Whereas maybe for a while you've been fighting for a hundred thousand air.
And,
and so they set up this fight between Connor and this Michael Chandler guy.
And Connor has sat out and it's been years,
years since the fight was set up.
And Chandler's like,
I ain't going nowhere.
Ready when you are.
The contract is signed.
And the contract is signed.
But nobody likes that it's signed.
But the UFC is like, the contract is signed.
And they've been pressuring Conor.
So now Conor's coming back.
He's fighting Chandler.
And if he beats Chandler, they're going to give him a 170-pound title shot against Leon fucking Edwards, who is not a great champion.
If there's a champion that Conor can beat, it's probably him.
I really think so.
I feel like there's been, and I don't follow the UFC world,
but I feel like for half a decade now, it's been talk of,
oh, Conor's coming back.
You know why? Here's why.
He's got that proper 12 money. He doesn't have to do shit.
It's not just that. Look, I agree with that.
That's an easy take to have but the main thing is that he sat out for a little while after he lost and then when he would come back he'd get crippled he'd get crippled and they'd
be like all right see you in two years when your legs fixed and like two years would go by and
then another year in negotiations and all of a sudden
it's like well you only had one fight before the leg break thing or something like that and then
there was a gap after before that it's like man you it's been six years and two fights and one
win against a half-assed opponent what is going on here you're supposed to be the goat not the goat
but like a pay-per-view goat where have you been and uh but he is coming back and he is not taking it seriously
even though he says he is he was at a party either last night or the night before and he is doing
cocaine and grabbing titties like he is wasted on a dance floor somewhere process wait dude it's
weeks before the fight it's six or eight weeks before the fight i mean how much is cocaine gonna hurt how
much cocaine is he doing like i mean all the responsible amount i'm sure he has all of the
best cocaine yeah i bet he never hits for it eight years ago in 2016 was connor's last good win uh
the other win he has is against the ghost of Cowboy Cerrone. Sure.
And everything else is losses.
I thought the Cowboy Cerrone fight was a fun fight.
It was like, what just happened?
What just happened?
Did he knock him out with that shoulder?
Or did he just damage him with the shoulder? So, Conor had been sat out for a while, Taylor,
and it was like, Conor's back.
They're going to give him a warm-up fight.
He's going to fight Cowboy Cerrone.
To call Cowboy a warm-up fight wasn't
quite accurate at that time.
He was in the top ten, maybe in the top
five, maybe fifth or sixth.
Connor comes out, and they do a little dance, and
they clinch up, and Connor starts
throwing the shoulder strike. He pops his shoulder
twice,
and he jumps off his back foot when he
does it, and breaks Cowboy's fucking nose, and blood is pouring, and he jumps off his back foot when he does it and breaks
Cowboy's fucking nose and blood is pouring and Cowboy's like, I'm overbroken. And they set him
up and they go back at it. And Conor kicks him in the fucking head right away. And Cowboy staggers
almost knocked out. And now Conor's on top of him throwing his big, strong left into the side of his
head over and over and over.
And that's the fight.
It's like a minute, 20 seconds long or something.
And all of a sudden, there he is sitting on the side of the railing again.
Like, what else did you think was going to happen, motherfuckers?
And you're like, damn.
All right, well, let's get another fight in two weeks and, you know, let's go again.
But, you know, he's got a cowboy.
He's got to retire.
Years went by.
Cowboy has retired. He did retire. He's on t he's on uh trt now and he looks amazing yeah i think connor's
on trt too everybody looks amazing yeah connor's on a lot of stuff i can only imagine he's the
most tested athlete he's looking thick this year but he's been tested like 16 times this year okay
okay but are you suggesting he's not on stuff? I don't know what he's on.
I know he's not on just testosterone.
Like, he can't be doing that.
So whatever he's taking is probably less effective than just testosterone.
But he is on something.
Like, I can't imagine being in a position where you're fighting for $50, $100 million sometimes and not being on some sort of – although he's doing cocaine and drinking beer and stuff.
I don't know, man.
He's just got a different outlook than I or you would have.
He's drinking beer?
He's six weeks out, and he is drunk at these nightclubs.
I was saying that's bad optics for him to be drunk on beer.
He has his own beer.
Oh, he does?
Does he have a beer?
I didn't know that.
Yeah.
Okay.
What's it called?
I don't know.
Yeah, I don't know.
I'm sure it's popular.
But he doesn't like to take it as seriously, which is a shame.
Because I always want to believe.
I have that.
I always want to believe.
What's it called?
Forged Irish Stout.
There you go.
A stout?
Ew.
Give me a can of that.
Okay.
That means something to Taylor.
Dark beer.
Stout is like dark beer.
Stout is like a strong man.
It's also a strong beer.
It's a very...
You can see how dark it is,
belief in that man's hand there.
Can you make the counterp Connor picture bigger, Zach?
Is that hard to do?
Hey, it's overflow.
Oh.
Yeah, Connor,
dude, his...
I mean, you can see why he's a pro
fighter. His forearms,
his biceps, his shoulders.
And he's just got the touch of death
in those hands. He's dangerous.
As much as I think he's going to get smashed by Chandler,
I don't know.
Yeah, I don't know either.
Anyone who keeps bombs in their fists can win a fight.
Chandler brawls
too.
I think Conor's going to
lose, but I see ways for Conor
to win, I guess would be the way to look
at that one. However, with the Tyson thing, I think Tyson's going to lose, and I don't see a for connor to win i guess would be the way to look at that one however
with the tyson thing i think tyson's gonna lose and i don't see a way for tyson to win
yeah see that clip of tyson in like a wheelchair yeah he had some sort of a medical emergency on
a plane and had to be had to be landed he probably shouldn't be boxing he says he's gonna die soon
and i don't think he's saying it like woe is is me. I read it, so I didn't get the emotions surrounding it.
I just read the text.
But it sounded kind of analytical.
Like, you know, I'm just not going to live a really long time,
and I think I'm going to die before, you know, in the near future.
Let's say.
I mean, he was hard on his heart, and he's a black athlete man
who's been hard on his heart his whole life.
Who's been punched in the head many, many, many times.
I don't know if that brings you down.
You know, it kills you.
It just, you know, you have a rough time finding your keys.
And then you have a hard time remembering that aunt.
And then all of a sudden, you're going to work.
And you've been retired for 18 years.
You know?
Like, you just lose your mind.
But I don't think it kills you um the way the way that was he like steroid and stuff like that had to be
i think i don't know but i just feel like everybody was i think everybody was like if you're
it's a lance armstrong situation as far as i'm concerned that like especially i don't know but
like that seems like such a sketchy business
pro boxing when you've got you know i mean like it's not like the tour de france it's just
criminals trying to take advantage of other criminals yeah with like i don't know thugs
in the middle of it all it is everyone involved in that sport is a wreck yeah so so if there is
testing or if there was testing
then they would just be able to fake it don king would be like nah here's your piss like like and
here's here's five thousand dollars and go that give me mike's piss back i mean give me that piss
oh whose piss was that like i'm sure if there was testing they just flubbed it he was definitely on
because like he's when you see him at 17 i think that's the
the youngest i've seen him i watched him knock a guy out when he was 17 and like 15 seconds
15 seconds he knocks this other child out and it's like i don't think he's on steroids there
he's just a natural goddamn behemoth built like that but i would i mean i don't know why you
wouldn't put him on steroids if you're going to be a pro athlete. He says that after he hits pads, he needs to rest for a week.
And I think a reporter asked him if he was playing possum.
And his answer was, I wish.
But it was a good question.
Because I'm like, are you really resting for a week after you hit pads?
Because you look amazing when you hit pads, even now.
But you're telling me that
kills you and i i don't know but i've seen him say other similar stuff to joe rogan like before
the whole jake paul thing where he's like yeah that footage of me looks amazing but you don't
understand and i can only look amazing for 15 seconds in a row then i'm tired and i'm sore
and he knows how to move he won't lose that that. He just can't do it this fast.
He's not as fast as he used to be.
He would just spin and turn and pivot
like a goddamn piece of machinery.
Yeah.
He's tricky. He's a really good fighter.
I bet his hips are bad.
I bet his knees are shot.
I'm sorry. His back is bad.
That's a known thing.
It's crazy this is even happening.
It's not quite Rocky Balboa stuff,
but it's close.
You know, having some way-over-the-hill-aged fighter
coming and fighting some young stud.
That's...
In terms of pre-fight trash talk,
you talk about minimizing whatever accomplishment Jake Paul gets out of this.
Tyson's killing it.
Poor Iron Mike.
He's just an old man now.
I don't think he bit that lady, but he definitely bit that man's ear off.
I watched that happen.
Yes, he did.
Did you see the gummies he sells?
They're shaped like Vander Holyfield's ear?
They're shaped like Vander Holyfield's ears.
Yeah. Is Vander Holyfield sour ear. They're shaped like Evander's ears. Told us, yeah.
Is Evander Holyfield sour about that?
Do you think so?
They've talked about it.
They've talked about it in person before
and sort of reconciled over the whole thing.
Evander was headbutting him,
and it wasn't getting called over and over,
like hard, like on purpose.
It wasn't like a clash of heads.
It was like, you're headbutting me, motherfucker,
and the ref's not calling it.
I think he cut Tyson under the eye. Does that sound right?
I don't remember the cut, but
I haven't watched that.
I remember him... I'm sorry, I cut you off.
I remember him in the interview afterwards where he was
like, look, he headbutted me here. My children
are going to have to look at me looking like this.
And they're all like, what about him?
He's permanently disfigured.
I always see his weed stuff when I go to the
smoke shop.
Mike has rolling papers and marijuana
and all sorts of stuff that he
sells in markets at weed shops.
I see people asking for it. There was a black
girl in there the other day and she's like, you got that Mike
Tyson shit?
That's what she sounded like.
That wasn't racist at all.
Just a good impression, I think.
Yeah.
I feel like I was there.
It sounds like.
Did Tyson win that fight?
I don't even know.
Did he beat Evander Holyfield?
No.
He lost to him twice, I think.
Definitely once.
Kyle, do you know?
He lost the ear-biting fight for sure.
Jake Paul should be fighting Evander Holyfield.
Well, Holyfield's held up pretty well.
You know what? Tyson has too.
I don't think so.
Time flies.
Time flies.
He was an old guy
who might be able to do something five years ago.
And now it's five years later.
And like I always say, it's not like his career
ended with him on a high note.
It was him not being good enough then. He hasn't been good enough forever. years later and like i always say it's not like his career ended with him on a high note it was
him not being good enough then he hasn't been good enough forever since i was a kid i remember being
being like in high school and talking about his comeback fight or some shit you know he fought
lennox lewis in 2002 maybe that that's forever ago it's 22 years ago since he's been fighting
real deal opponents.
Yeah, Lennox Lewis is funny, though, because he looks like the scariest guy ever.
And he's got that proper, like, nice guy British accent.
And then Mike Tyson looks like a criminal.
But he looks terrifying.
But then he's got that silly little voice.
You got Mike going back and forth with proper English guy.
Hilarious.
I'm going to murder you. Well, i can't wait to watch the gif on
twitter of the fight after the fact i hope the fight happens i i do want to see it gotta be a
lot of money for them from netflix i don't i don't know i i love that netflix is doing like a live
thing like that that's really cool that's kind of a boss move to to buy the thing and just put it on
your service they did oh actually they did just bump everybody's rates up by like 10 percent
and didn't mention it right dude i love that streaming services are starting to get live stuff
like i've been watching uh nba basketball is not your thing but it's on hbo max yeah just max now
and uh i've been catching a bunch of games. Jackie sits through them with me.
Poor Jackie.
I just... Dude, like live
stuff was completely missing from streaming
for a long time.
I'd be interested in getting news on there.
Maybe. But definitely sports.
Well, it's a little
pricey, but Hulu Live
has everything.
It's still blacked out like NHL games that are in your area.
And so it'll be like, oh, I can't watch the Blues play Chicago tonight,
but I can watch Ottawa play Vancouver.
I think I've got, I get all the hockey games,
because I think some of them are on either Paramount or Hulu Live.
I've got everything.
I split it with my
girlfriend like i get i canceled the ones that she had and she canceled the ones that i have but i
have every fucking streaming app imaginable except for like turner classic movies plus or some shit
like you'd have to go to like a and i had to process that get me back so he canceled the
ones she had and she canceled the ones he had leaving an enormous
hole we got a lot of hulu accounts i was doing that for a while we had a relationship i've had
that before i'm like do i have two hulu accounts fuck and they're both the good ones they got me
on that too i'm embarrassed how long I paid for two Hulu accounts.
But I've got the package for that so that you get Hulu, Disney, and ESPN+.
Is there anything on Netflix?
Because I canceled Netflix probably a year, year and a half ago.
I did too.
After it just became a Seinfeld machine.
And I have all of the Seinfeld DVDsds that i can just watch and they're probably on
plex like i never hear someone who's like oh you don't have netflix oh you you're missing out on
blah blah blah like it seems like it's been overtaken by all the other services i'm having
a hard time coming up with great examples the gentleman tv series that that woody's been
watching is probably only on there um but i could
every time i go on there i see something else i like they do so many documentaries there and i
like those um they have adam sandler movies which sometimes fit what i'm looking for you know i i
know kyle enjoys movies that require 100 of your attention but sometimes i enjoy movies that take
half of it i like i like the other kind too i watched pacific rim the other night okay great i love kelly is in that i haven't
seen it but i know he's in it the first one's very very good the second one's like an abomination
the first one's very very good though it's it when the robots are fighting the kaiju they have
this weight about them it's not like transformers where everybody's just moving around fast it's
and when they hit them like their skulls explode
teeth are flying out and he really does have an elbow rocket he goes elbow rocket and the rocket
fires up on the elbow of the mech so he punches faster and harder is charlie a main character
in that yes yeah charlie's like part of the science research team who is into the kaijus
who are coming through this like portal beneath the ocean from another dimension.
It's like these people are sending the
kaiju to terraform and kill
our planet so they can move into it.
Of course, we built
giant mechs to fight them.
It's a Guillermo del
Toro movie, so it has that dark
kookiness to it.
The monsters are really cool. The mechs are
really cool. Charlie has a really cool and charlie has a
good time it actually had remember the episode flowers for it's probably called flowers for
charlie yeah but it's the the parody of flowers for algeron or whatever the asian um the weird
scientist not the asian assistant but the weird scientist is like i have a pill that will make
you seven times smarter he's like you made the made the cheese! And he's like, we have
our test subject. That guy
is also in the movie, and him and Charlie are together.
And he's the more grounded one,
and Charlie's the one who wants to, like,
brain link with a kaiju brain
using this machinery.
He wants to get inside the... Well, Charlie has to be the eccentric
one. That's kind of his bag.
Of course. He's very good
in it. It's a good movie. It's legitimately a good movie. Like,'s he's very good in it um it's a good movie it's
legitimately a good movie like idris elba's in it it's got uh charlie cox is in it the guy from
the motorcycle sons of anarchy movie our tv show i was watching just last night the um
like improv always sunny bloopers on youtube where like charlie is just like coming up with
lines off the top of his head and making everybody crack up where they're talking about like you know
the line is just like you know we're gonna go in and we're gonna get heroin we're gonna put it in
our butts and then charlie's like oh so full So full for you. And then they have to cut.
And then the next one, he's like, so full.
Like a Christmas stocking.
And he's just cracking everyone up.
To the brim.
You know, it's the most words per episode of any TV show.
Probably because there's a lot of improv in it.
It's the wordiest show on television.
I haven't watched recent seasons, but seasons one through
eight or so are hilarious. The newest season is a resurgent
season. The podcast, they said,
sort of rejuvenated their creative juices
and got them fired up, and it's legitimately
a throwback season, and it's very good.
80% of the episodes are like,
ooh, that was fucking funny. I'll try it out, then.
We should wrap up. We gotta do our hangout. I know Woody wants to
squeeze in dinner, but yeah, join
our patron, and you can come play Scribbleo with us in the hangout.
We're not playing Scribbleo because that's been banned.
I know.
Everyone's tired of getting their asses kicked by moi.
We literally are.
You're both right.
It's the Taylor rule.
All right.
