The main character's name in halo is
Master Chief nobody halo reach the one of the theists, not the main character, that's Noble Six.
Your Carter is the leader of Noble Team.
I was gonna say, I was gonna say,
what took me off guard is,
it is a really good thing, your first name is Blaine,
because if your name was John Carter Gibson,
you'd be a serial killer.
That is your Carter Gibson.
If you had like, one of the books of the Bible first name,
Carter Gibson is like, you know, watch out
Post offices because this guy is sending bombs to package bombs. Yeah, exactly
I don't know what it is. Well, I think I'm I might have said this on the floor or the floor
I see my time. I might have said this on the podcast
might have said this on the podcast before but I went to I went to high school with a guy
a lot of some of this on the podcast before, but I went to high school with a guy chatting about now.
His name is John Sterling Mansky, which is like, I mean, a triple plus serial killer name.
That's a great, that's like a porn star name or a guy, like you said, going on a real
rampage.
Yeah.
Did you ever like have someone from high school that you went with
who just went on to do something like either really fucked up
or really cool?
You know?
I had a girl in high school.
She got hit by a baseball and a major league baseball
game and she went viral for it.
What you think real cool is, what I think real cool is,
are real.
I had a first example.
I think I was in this with a friend as a Quainance and high school who
I'm gonna say his name got arrested for throwing a taco at his mom
What the fuck so does mom call the cops on him? Yeah, oh my god that seat to me. That's real cool
Yeah, that's pretty cool. What what fucking guy? What kid is losing his temper so much that there's a taco at his mom?
It was a hard shell
Has no idea that could have been in there up to an assault up the charge
Exactly it was soft shell. It's just that's just ingredients fine around its contrast supreme. He's going to yeah gas chamber no trial
I don't think I had anyone
Steven Strasberg is a major league baseball pitcher and he went to my high school,
but it was like after I graduated
when he was like a freshman.
So I missed him and the dad fan,
the guy who won the first season of last comic standing,
he was right before I was a freshman,
he graduated, I guess.
Yeah.
Yeah, so I got real cool on either side.
And that's it.
My buddy Brett Thiel went on to Broadway. He was a really fucking cool guy. side. That's it my buddy Brett feel went on to Broadway
He was a really fucking cool guy. I think he's doing well from self now
He did have a sin as one of the spider-men and the the Broadway spider-men
Turn off the dark off the dark. Yeah, wow
But the guy was like crazy athletic like Jack. Oh, oh the girl I went to high school with Alexis is like was part of the ensemble original
last hamlet, uh, Hamilton. Oh, okay. Hamilton cast. Oh, but I knew I handled some cast
mirror too. Oh man, that January six performance was great. And all we've been doing is making
just dumb videos for the internet. All these people going on doing to cool stuff like Spider-Man
turn off the dark. When you say the gender and other things other performance was great. Do you mean the Lin-Manuel Miranda
performance or do you mean a year
earlier that January?
Stits performance. Okay, so I'm
unclear, but was this
performance by the Capitol steps
or on the Capitol steps?
Was this one and two?
Did that actually happen?
Because I can't I don't have the
cringe capacity to watch it?
Yes, what happened?
No, that obviously happened so
No, what if what if this is me outing myself is like guys, I don't know if that happened or not
No did did Hamilton perform on
You mean did Lynn meant well Miranda Miranda deliver a speech on the anniversary?
Yes.
It was like through Zoom and it was Nancy Pelosi, right?
Yeah, yeah.
It feels like an SNL bit.
Like you watch it, it's like Nancy Pelosi, you think it's like,
I'm blanking you in all SNL cast right now, but it's like.
It's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like,
in Lin-Manuel and it's like,
Romney Malik playing Lin-Manuel or something.
But yeah.
It really was like,
having all these people come together
and remember it's January 6th,
was fucking insane to me to begin with.
Like, guys, one year ago,
they almost succeeded.
We did nothing to prevent this.
Here's the guy who made
Hamilton. It was wild. It's like a weird commemoration thing. Yeah. We should just kind
of leave it in the this is work on the left. So we're like speaking from that side where
even we're like that's kind of cringe. Oh, it was bone shell. It was like, ladies and
gentlemen, we as a nation who give $750 billion to defense spending couldn't stop a bunch of rich dentists and book sales
I'm taking a selfie in a fucking rotunda
One of these days. Well, you got I mean, that's on you guys like I'm sorry. It's been one year
This occurred you're welcome. Did you guys you guys know who all gas no break is? Yeah, yeah channel five
They did interview with the shaman. Oh, I watched it. Oh, you did. Oh, yeah, it's so crazy
It's like they called him in jail and man that guy all gas no breaks guy. It was Andrew
See the tall kind of weird guy
Yes, Anne's everything. Yeah, so he is a like
Suspiciously good interviewer.
He just lets people go.
And man, it's just watching people,
like he's like just holding the rope
and then the people go, thank you so much for this rope.
And then just start,
fucking tying it, just tying it.
And then like pulling the ladder over
and then hook in it and just they just,
they're climbing and just watching people
just hang themselves.
He just has the capacity to like let them continue to talk because he does has no cringe.
Like he, I'm sorry, cringe is such a fucking bad word. It's cringe word.
Uh, he just doesn't get uncomfortable by it.
And he just, it just doesn't, it just bounces right off of him.
Yeah, yeah.
So I'm oily.
Hi, that just rolls right, right off.
It was on like H3 and he was talking about how part of his tactic is he just he is like
an ally of whoever he's next to.
Yeah, it could be an awful person.
He's standing there.
He makes that person feel very like welcome.
And somehow they start wrapping.
Yeah, it's definitely like he's not sitting in judgment.
He does a very good job of not sitting in judgment, but I think you as the viewer are still looking at him and going like, we're definitely on the same page here.
Chet Hanks is not on the same page with us. That's how that feels. Also, Chet Hanks, he's
the white boy, summer guy, right? Okay. He's the one that always has. Yeah, he's got
a lot of people. Come on guys, we're going to get some rules, rigs. He's got, he's the one that always has. Yeah, he's got a list. Come on guys, we're gonna get some rules, rigs. He's got, he's got some big time marble voice.
Yeah.
How, what happened where he's Tom Hanks' son?
Because the other one got all the talent.
Yeah, Colin Hanks.
Colin got all the talent.
What, Chet, I think isn't Chet also from Rita...
Propulsive.
Yeah, isn't, isn't, isn't Chet Hanks from a previous marriage? Like that's not,
that's not or from another relationship. Like that's not Tom Hanks's flesh and blood.
Good. You're wrong. Hey, allegedly. I don't know. Welcome to the WSRT podcast. This is pre-recorded.
So if we're wrong about any of this, I don't care. His mom is, Sorry. Yeah. No, it's Rita Wilson and Tom Hanks. Oh, yeah, by
who's by God's divine is the third child of Tom Hanks. I don't know.
They have three kids in the first child born to hang and actress Rita Wilson.
Wait, wait, wait, wait. So Tom Hanks is like five kids and
what? What? Yeah. Four is four kids, including
Colin and Chet.
I don't know why they-
Someone's editing the Wikipedia page right now.
We don't know what it's like back there going,
I don't know.
Everybody's taking a long time.
Yeah, I think.
There was, there was like, I think it was when Tom Hanks got COVID and Chet took it upon
himself to make an announcement video.
Yes, yes.
And he was shirtless. He's like, show off his tassies like, guys.
It's true.
Dad's got COVID.
I don't know what you thought some prayers.
It's just like, what do you do for him?
And I think that was the world's introduction to Chet Hayes.
Chet Hayes.
And he goes off in like a Jamaican accent.
Yeah, he does, he does,
good for him.
What is it?
He does what?
Yeah, that's why he does.
Adrian Brody's introduction on nice and out.
He does meet Joe.
He does Brad Pitt and meet Joe Black when he's in the hospital and he's talking to like
the old woman and he does.
Have you seen that?
He does.
Yeah, he does like the whole accent and you're like, this is 1996.
Like what are we doing?
What happened here?
And it was very weird.
I don't know.
Brad Pitt to handsome.
To handsome.
You see this photos of him. That's black and white photos of him fly fishing,
when he's like 20. It's pretty good. Did you post one? Yeah. That's right. Sorry, I can only
get two rex. I can't, I can't, I've got pants integrity to maintain. I think Brad Pitt
is too handsome to be a character actor and that's sad for him.
Oh yeah, I see where you're saying it.
Because man, when he gets to play a character, he fucking rules.
He's fun to watch play.
Like in Gloris Passwords.
Like when he gets to do that stuff, even like burn after reading.
I don't really burn after reading, but watching him just sort of like go is like a lot of fun. Absolutely.
The problem is when he's in movies with other people, you just go, well, that's, he can't
just be on screen lately.
Yeah, I, Brad Pitt is also, I feel like my friend Kath was saying the same thing about Oscar
Isaac.
Like anytime Oscar Isaac is in a movie, I'm immediately taken out of it because every
other character should be like going.
What?
That's the hand-summon I've ever seen.
Like, it's just like, you're too good looking to be like,
husband.
Yeah, you're like, what are you doing?
Like, you should be like, you know,
walking the streets of Venice,
just looking too good.
Then there's the dude who was like, he was like,
the guy that was giggling at Batman and Dark Knight,
whenever he caught him.
Yeah.
And then he was also like, the bad guy in Prisoners.
He's in all these Villainews.
He's a polka dot.
He's polka dot man.
He's like just like, weird enough looking
that he fits any role.
And it's like, that's the same actor.
Yeah.
It's so fucking good. I think he was super on meth or heroin.
Good for him.
Yeah, we can't get super liable here, right?
Let's find out.
Okay, because I think he's like sober,
because I thought I saw like a speech that he gave
like a sober like something.
Sure, sure, sure.
I'm like, oh, that's interesting.
I really like him as an actor.
He's very, he has like an interesting look.
And every time he's a character,
I forget that he's a human man.
And I just go, I buy this.
Yeah, him and Prisoner is, oh my God.
Yeah, Prisoner's in general.
I think that the movie's incredible.
I miss when movies could have ugly people in them,
but not just be like ugly people.
Like her speech.
Oh, man, that has boy.
It's just a bunch of ugly people, right that has boy. It's Philip Seaman
Hoffmore's kid is in it or whatever and he's a
more. I think there was a thing it was Venus or Serena Williams was asked to
an interview what's your favorite actor and she said Philip Seaman Hoffmore
and it was all of us at megast 64 going well, that's his name now
Yeah, he's that kid is very good. He's a very good actor
He's supposed to be 15 and we have the same hairline and it's like boy boy dude. It's really something I watched
Well, is it oh spider-man? Yeah, I watch spider-man. No, I've been watching a lot of like TCM stuff on HBO Max. I go watch Breathless, this good dark movie from the TV.
Oh, incredible.
And it's a very good movie.
And a couple of people are very attractive.
And then everyone else is just human people
that I feel like they just found.
Yeah.
And when you want to be in this movie,
that was at a diary of a, I don't know,
the killing of a Chinese bookie
that I watched last night,
and that has no attractive people whatsoever
in the entire 180 minutes or whatever.
It's like some casting director in the 90s,
saw James Dean and was like, everyone should look like him.
Yeah, everyone looking this good.
Right, like Clint Eastwood, they're like,
the guys fucking hands.
Yeah, yeah.
But then, oh good.
Oh, I was gonna say it, but like, it used to be like with like breathless, it's like, okay, I feel like I need some. Yeah, yeah. But then, oh good. Oh, it's gonna say, but like, it used to be like,
with like, breathless, it's like, okay, you have like,
maybe your leads are attractive or handsome or like,
what have you, but now like, the, like guy adjusting
his tie and background is like, model quality,
like everyone is good looking, like, very rare to see,
just like, kind of bit parts of background actors
populated by just like human people. And also like, you know, this happened, I would say
probably mid mid night mid late 90s, where everyone got the same kind of good looking
because everyone fixed their teeth. Like everyone got fucking caps and veneers and like it just like leveled the playing field in terms of because like a
Like Brad Pitt with like fucked up teeth is still like super handsome, but much more like
much more like a character after he's like born to play, but like Brad Pitt with perfect teeth. You're like
It's too good look like yeah, what what you, you're not burn after reading, guy?
Although that character would have weirdly kept teased.
Yeah, but I wouldn't buy him is like this like crazy,
you know, drill sergeant from a glorious bastard
who like used in the mountains.
Yeah, in an era when no one had perfect
to everyone smoked seven packs a day.
It's like, I mean, it's like Boba Fett.
That's the thing I throws me off about Boba Fett.
See, whenever he's talking, he's got perfect white teeth. Big old ears.
Oh, interest.

Is that Boba Fett show good okay episode one pretty fucking wrong?
I don't like I thought episode one was bad like little Darth Vader and like oh like why would you have quite on gin?
No, that was it was it was, it was a flashback of the battle of genosis.
It was like when he was baby boba, and his dad had just died.
Baby boba.
The intro is cool, but I just feel like the rest of the episode isn't great,
and then episode two.
Uh, fucking slacks.
And the Tuscan Raiders, fucking, it's like dances with wolves.
Oh, really?
So, they're doing this thing to start with. That sentence just sold me unwanted to see that. It's actually, I have a better comparison? So they're doing this thing to start a worse sentence.
Just holding on wanting to see that.
It's actually I have a better comparison.
So they're doing this thing to start working.
I just said that's one of our favorite movies,
Sorcerer, where they're like, hey, there's this movie that no one fucking watched back in
77 because Star Wars came out and everyone was watching our shit.
We're gonna make it, but in Star Wars, and they did that in the main of the lore.
Yeah, interesting.
God, I've rewatched Sorcerer the other day.
You're a maniac.
I'm gonna tell you that.
It's so fucking good.
It is so good. You blame Eric and
Drew Saplan and I went and saw it at the draft house in the before like before the pandemic.
Like I feel like kind of right. It was like right. It was like right before the pandemic.
The draft house had was showing it. We went and saw it. And like that was my first time
seeing it not on a crappy VHS tape. singing in the theater. Oh god damn it's so
Score by Tangerine dream who I'm my opinion should score all movies. Yeah, all movie scored by
Dune shit. They made the soundtrack for Grand Theft Auto 5. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, so it's it's just it's a movie imagine like it's
Two trucks filled with nitro blisterin and they got to go through like what is it Columbia?
Yes, the jungle like the deep jungle and they can't move the truck too
much or else it'll fucking explode. It is the most intense movie you're just like
puckering your butthole. Yeah, I wasn't ready for it. We talked about how intense
it was. It wages a fear is the original and it was I guess remade into
Sorcerer. And you watch this movie and the whole beginning does a good job of
lolling you into learning who these people are, but not a very deep way.
And you're just sort of like, okay, I'm on board.
And then they get into the meat of the movie.
And I think I was sitting like this for most of it.
And then the rest of the movie, I was sitting like this.
You were just, it's so intense.
Like the perfect set up for a movie, it's so intense.
Like the perfect set up for a movie, it's just like a bunch of criminals who have like fled
to South America to avoid extradition are like given the opportunity.
It's like, hey, there's this oil rig out in the middle of the jungle.
That's like on fire and we need to stand out to like blow it up to cap it to blow it
up to shut it down.
But we can't get like helicopters can't get out there because like the windshears too bad like they'll absolutely
It'll absolutely blow up
So we're giving you like we need like five volunteer four volunteers to drive these trucks and if you do it for us
You'll like $10,000 and your visas so they're like okay, then we can have to be official citizens in this like country
And we don't have to like take these like shitty ass jobs and so then it's like, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom,
just driving trucks through the worst roads.
I mean, it's roads is like even giving a lot of credit.
It's so good.
It's one of my favorite.
I think you'll love it.
Yeah, there's a scene too.
It was the last thing I'll say
because I don't want to spoil anything else.
But to test whether or not the drivers are worth a shit,
they have a glass of water on the dash. And if it shakes too much and you can see that shaking, it's
like, well, this guy's not going to do. And I remember I put a glass of water in my
cup holder with my Jeep and it was like, was it like, am I, am I good enough as a driver?
It's fantastic. But like, case in point though, Roy Shredder's the lead in that.
Yeah.
Guys like not super attractive. No, and that's, I think that's like a Schreider's the lead in that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's like not super.
No. And that's, I think that's like a big thing is what we're talking about. Like,
people just could just be like really good actors. Like you used to be able to just
be in a band and be like kind of gross looking.
Did you feel the radio star, baby?
Yeah. And then now it's your one of your favorite bands, Steely Dan. Yeah.
Yeah. Nobody in that. The Donald Fagan is a little monster man. And it is incredible.
Yeah. Incredible band. incredible, incredible man.
But man, what are performance, what a,
watch the movie and then read about what happened
when they made the movie and then just go,
how they do this?
That's all I feel about.
Have you guys seen African Queen?
No.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was reading about the behind the scenes
of how they made that movie and it's the movie
that inspired Walt Disney to make the Jungle Cruise.
Wait, is that the, I think I might have actually seen this,
is it the one that it's the Tug Boat
and he's trying to get,
it's just trying to get down the river basically.
I've only done a nine.
Yeah, it's Humphrey Boatgar in like the 50s
or something like that.
He's dating like a Mormon missionary lady or something, right?
Yeah, she's like there for the ride.
I don't remember the details, it's been a long time.
But, you guys just described the Jungle Cruise movie.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, yeah, no.
Walt Disney just totally ripped off Afri and Corny.
That's so funny.
How crazy.
But it's on Amazon and it is so good and so entertaining.
And the stakes are like, it's all simple.
It's just a simple story.
But they shot it in Africa in the 50s.
And they were like camping.
Because they were shooting it chronologically down the river.
Yeah. Yeah, this, in the same day,
we're shooting down the Nile or whatever,
for like seven hours,
and then we're gonna camp and hope
that we don't get diseases from these mosquitoes.
Yeah, so caught newty on wardrobe was like a breeze.
Right, exactly.
It was something that you couldn't get
an insurance company to underwrite, ever.
Ever, ever, ever.
Like, no, no, no, no, no.
That okay, so apparently like the 70s
was the time for like crazy directors
to make movies down there for like no money, and just like the 70s was the time for like crazy directors to make movies down there for like no money
And just like the most dangerous thing because two other movies that are highly recommend both
Verna Herzog movies fits Caroldo and a gear a wrath of God both of which were made the exact same way
It's just like no, we're gonna I'm gonna get my class can see the craziest actor I can possibly find and a bunch of like native people and go down
there and without like permits or anything. Just make a movie. And like move a boat, like Fitzgerald
is about moving a boat over a mountain. And they actually moved a boat. It's like over a mountain.
Fnall, it's a phenomenal. And like the movies are incredible. And even more incredible are the
documentaries about how they made those movies. Like are equally just like, these are maniacs.
These are maniacs that had like half a million dollars and went to South America and made
a movie.
You can just listen to a Herzog, just say stuff.
The fucking lover.
Yeah, the jungle is cowling.
It's my favorite server.
It's cool.
Show me the child.
Show me the child.
Have you seen the figures that they've put out
for these characters?
Oh, I've been using shit.
You can get like a Bill Burr action figure
and you can get a Werner Herzog action figure
and they're a Star Wars.
You pull the little bunny goes,
I'm serious.
Yeah.
Did you guys say,
I made it.
The King of Stan Island,
the Pete Davidson Bill Burr movie,
I came out last year.
No, I didn't want to look at,
okay, we're talking about people
who can be ugly
in movies, they're allowed to be ugly,
they're intentionally ugly and that's not the same.
Not the same.
They are, they do their best to go out of their way
to look at that, yeah, yeah, there it is.
There's a billbird act, hold it up for your camera.
Hold it up for your camera.
He's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like,
the worst GI Joe.
You can buy that.
That's cool.
You can get it, you don't want that?
Charles Bronson's another dude.
Sorry, there's like peeps,eps someone some young guy listening to this podcast
Like the fuck you talk about. Well, this is how you learn. Is that you learn?
Yeah, you have to sit around and listen to the old heads go. Do you ever see this? You ever see that?
Charles Bronson's a dude who was like not an attractive man. No, that guy fucking kicked ass. Yeah, you short
I watched
some of the
fourth death wish, like a week or so ago, and I couldn't really stomach it,
not because it's so violent. It's just that like the situations that are like put forth are like,
this is what, why is he doing this? And it's like, so it is really like in the 80s,
they just wanted you to be scared that at any point,
gangs will kidnap your family right now.
Right, I mean, so they come.
The, the, from, it started with dirty Harry
because this was all reactionary politics,
like all the reactionary politics of the right wing
got like, like, subsumed into movies
because it was post 60s. It was post like everybody's like free love and all this stuff.
And so then that, like, the culture reaction to that was to make like fucking vigilante
cop movies in the 70s and 80s. And then so, yeah, that's how you got your like death wishes,
your dirty areas, your magnum forces, where it's just like, I get fucking results. Yeah, and I'm just like,
God, he's like, yeah!
But that's what it's for.
It's for people, it's for your dad's friends to go,
fuck you, the way fucking killed that guy, fuck you.
There's also an Edward Dirty hair.
He executed it without a trial.
He throws his badge at the end of the,
then he's back in the second one,
but in every Dirty Harry movie,
he always has a speech about how like,
I don't need a female cop partner.
That's just like, you just put it on the four-star numbers
and then it's like,
he always gets like a diverse, you know, partner.
And he always has a rant about why he doesn't want him
and it's like,
dirty Harry, chill the fuck out, bro.
Crazy, the guy who made Gran Torino?
Is, is Predator just Gran Torino,ino or not granderino dirty Harry in space. Well,
well, Predator is not doesn't take place in space.
Predator is about a different planet. It's not a white
savior film. I'm just talking. Oh, no, I'm thinking
grand Torino.
It's not all you can think about is grand Torino.
Predator incredible movie that when we watched for your birthday and a big
screen projector. That was fun. It was very fun. It was the first time I watched it,
what you would call sort of against the grain, where... Sober? No, that's on the grain.
Where you're looking for kind of like people saying things that saying things or
hinting at character sort of motivations without being explicit about them.
And that's I think we talked about it later where it's Jesse Ventura and
yeah and I just went are they lovers in this movie and had watched it like that
for the first time and I went went, I think they are.
Yeah.
Because they're giving each other so much shit.
But like...
Bill Duke fucking loses his mind when he lane dies.
In a way where like, it's not regular.
Well, this takes us to another thing,
which is so fascinating about like the hyper masculine movies of the 80s 90s and even in music because like the the actual logical like
and my friends are talking about this on another podcast that just like when things get so hyper masculine they become homosexual like you get get this like, the natural peak of that
is coming like, it's man love.
Like yeah.
And so like that makes perfect sense.
Like their relationship in that movie.
Like if you look at it from that way, you're like,
oh yeah, absolutely.
I think you could have sold that idea to Bill Duke
and he would have been like, yes, I will use that
in my performance.
Uh huh.
You told that to Jesse even sure, you would have fucking killed you. No, no, he would have loaded real that in my performance. Uh-huh. You told that to Jesse Vittor. You would have fucking killed him.
No, he would have loaded real bullets in that and he'd go,
and turned you into pink Mr.
throw with him.
If you want to watch something that's as entertaining as
Predator, watch the BTS for Predator.
It is like, they do this whole thing where they're
like fucking with each other, where they're like,
I would go to the gym at 4 a.m. so that no one else could see me work out.
So that I could show up on the set the next day
looking fucking huge and that everyone else
is in their brain thinking, is that all natural?
And like they would just destroy like,
there was like a producer who would be like,
hey, I should come work out with you guys
and then it's like Schwarzenegger and Jesse Ventura.
Insane, just destroy this man.
Carl weather, oh, there's a shot in that movie where they're pulling a tree up with rope. and just even sure. In saying just destroy the weather's car weather. Yeah.
There's a shot in that movie
where they're pulling a tree
up with rope and Carl.
It's just a shot of
a car.
The reason they do that scene
is so everyone can flex
is because they have.
Yes.
A hundred percent and like
there's not baby oil in the
jungle.
But they would sure they
would sure convince you that
it just flows from the tree. Yeah, even the guy that plays Billy was so fucking crazy that they had to have like
onset guards to make sure he didn't just fuck shit up. That's awesome.
Because he was just like he was just out there guy. That's cool. And then throw a
mountain of cocaine into the mix on set. That was a problem just like,
God, they're sure a lot of mirrors on every surface.
This production is stupid.
So like John McTierney, that is my favorite movie.
I'll say that with some of you.
Of course, yeah.
It's hands down my favorite movie.
John McTierney is such a good fucking director.
He did die hard.
He did a much of other awesome movies.
I just saw die hard for the first time.
Did you really?
Did you really?
Oh wow.
Did you watch it because it was Christmas?
My dad was like, this is my favorite Christmas movie. I'm like, yeah watch it because it was Christmas? My dad was like this is my favorite Christmas movie
I'm like and I watched I like this is not a Christmas movie. No, no, it just happens to take place over Christmas
But there's Christmas music in the soundtrack, but fucking awesome movie it is great. I heard rule. Oh, yeah
It's still a bunch of this equals. There's sequel. You can skip the second one and watch the third one
No, second one's awesome. Third one's great. See you, Emil Jackson.
You can skip the second one and watch the third one.
Okay, anyway, continue your thought.
Uh, uh, I, I, I can't remember.
Oh, so he went to prison for tax evasion.
I think he is getting out or out.
I hope he directs another movie.
I hope he definitely will.
He's so fucking good about prison.
Yeah.
About getting out of prison.
It's, It's Hollywood.
Once you're kind of in and you have a name,
you might not ever get to the level that you are at at one point,
but someone will give you money to do something again.
The guy that does the voice of Optimus Prime
did the Predator's sound effects.
And he has a story about how he had throat blood
or something because you'd been wrecking his vocal cords by doing all these
low voice characters and then they brought him in for a predator and he was like, I wanted
to ease off of just destroying my vocal cords.
So he's like doing all the, you know, all this stuff.
And there's a story they tell us at a panel where John McTernan's like across and he's
like, you can't hear it in the recording booth and he like throws the fucking script and
he's having a fit because he can't hear what the fuck he's doing and he comes out and he hears him do the
thing and he's just like, that's the cool shit ever.
Oh, that's awesome.
Let's record it.
I have a video I need to show you.
This is so stupid to be talking about it because I can't
show it now.
But it's a video that my buddy took at IHOP like 10 years ago.
I mean pouring a coffee, like pouring the cup of mug of coffee.
And it was just low enough to where it was splashing every time it hit the lid.
And it just sounded exactly like the predator. And after this, the airs, I'll post them
first. I was going to ask you, what's the consensus from the predator community on prey?
Right? Is that the new one? Oh, so I'm doing a, oh yeah, have you talked about this on the podcast?
It's going direct to Hulu. I was telling them a while ago, I'm doing an experiment with my
girlfriend where she, I'm going to show her predator and I'm not telling her
that prey is a sequel or spiritual's successor prequel to predator. And I'm going to see
you at what point she will know. It's a predator move. I'm very excited. They keep, they've
made a bunch of predator movies. Yep. The Robert Rodriguez one, right? The predators.
That's, in my opinion, the second best one. Was The Predator's. That's in my opinion the second best one.
Was that the newest one?
That's no, the newest one was the Predator
and that was Shane Black.
Oh, that was the one.
I even, I kinda even like Predator 2
that takes place in LA just because it's so weird.
I'm never doing that.
It's a weird one, but I like it just because it's so
fucking weird and grimy and gross.
And just like, because like, again, reactionary movies was just like,
LA is a crater of crime.
Yeah.
And we just need people are living in the sewer.
I mean, like the footage they show and like the way that you would dep,
the way that predator to depicts LA at the time,
looks like it was just like a bombed out war zone.
Like people were dodging oozy fire everywhere in the city
to get like groceries.
Yes, and I like that that imagery is really stayed with dads
up until even now, when they think of Los Angeles.
Like, we're not going there.
Yeah, like their son's gonna like go to you see
like, I don't know.
I don't know.
I heard that.
This is city full of predators. Yeah, this is a fucking joke like anytime I've gone to another city
My parents keep in mind whatever pop culture. Of course. Yeah, so whenever I went to like Mexico for a destination wedding
They were like
Sun you got to be safe out there. I was going out to nightclub
Yeah, it is like some Mexico rock. Yeah, that's because I I don't know what happened to people's brains, but I feel like our our
generation are much more comfortable going to other cities, other places,
other countries. And what am I don't know what happened between because maybe
it was pre 60s, pre 70s, there was a much more like see the country drive
around, go to different countries.
It was very more like travel, but then like that weird period between like 70s and through
the 90s.
Like it was just like be scared of everywhere else in the world.
Yeah, be scared of every other city and just like that very thing.
And maybe it was the movies that just portrayed like every, I mean, even up through like
news, even it's the new, it's the local news.
It's the local news and it's like the year.
I mean, I mean, up movies even up through like news. Even it's the new, it's the local news, it's the local news, and it's like, I mean, I mean,
I've been up movies even up through Taken,
or it's just like, yeah, you wanna go to Prague?
I hope you like getting like sex trafficked.
Yeah, because that's exactly what will happen
the second you step off the plane.
I didn't feel like there was even worry
about me going to Japan.
Japan's the safest, I was out at like 11 safest place
I've ever been, I think anywhere.
It was 11 PM in a mom in her like two kids
who were like 15, 20 feet away riding their bicycles
Like in the bed of night and they were just like whatever having a great time
I like hammered walking down alleys it like two or three in the morning
No one
Fucking with you anywhere and like token like Tokyo in Kyoto like anywhere. It was everything was safe there
Yeah, everything felt safe, but like, it's so funny.
The way you think of it is like,
ehm, yeah, I'm gonna go to Los Angeles for a few days.
It's like, well, I guess I'm gonna have to buy you
a bulletproof vest.
Yeah.
You're gonna be going down this.
I really go there.
It's beautiful.
Yeah, you're in Westphalia going to Sweet Green
and you're doing your job.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, exactly.
I mean, I don't know.
It's local news.
That would have you believe like every single like city on the
planet is just a fucking war. I think and you can point it. I think LA in New York in the 70s and 80s where
until Giuliani came and cleaned it up. New York was stab alley USA. I mean it was the movie The Warriors. Yeah, you to go anywhere.
You were fighting.
Well, that's great.
That is a classic, that's a classic dad movie.
So dad's love the Warriors classic blade movie.
I love that.
That's a great, it's a great fucking movie.
It's all you're trying to say.
Yeah, I'm having a baby.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Again, a movie chocobock full of the ugliest people
you've ever seen in your life, just like 70s,
ugly character actor weirdos, and it makes that movie.
You put, I think there's one handsome guy,
it's like the lead.
No, the lead is like the one handsome guy
in the Warriors, the rest monsters, wall to wall monsters,
and that makes perfect sense.
If you get even a little bit more handsome in that movie
It doesn't make sense. Yeah, you just you need all these gangs of just like yeah, just gargoyles
The streets think the best character in that movie is Ajax who's the brown hair guy who gets taken by the cops in the
In the park these the guy who wears like the fingerless gloves and he's like the big tough
He's like the brother. Yeah, he's the brawler and he might be like
As big as what like he's not bigger than anyone else in the movie. Yeah, oh, what slim?
He's why is he the brawler
It's so weird and then also he went on to be in like a lot of he that guy was in like a lot of
So he's like insects in the city
He's in like a lot of stuff. He was a character actor for like years
He was a raiding in moral combat too. He was a replacement wild wild. That's so crazy
This has been a good podcast
We were talking about predators. It is cool. I I never saw the the predator the one the shame black one
Yeah, but it how great like has there ever been a movie where a person was in a movie?
A vibe is in it and then-
Directed like one 40 years later.
Right, in the 30 years.
Has that ever happened?
That's how it's had to have happened.
I mean, it's crazy.
I think of that a lot because he made, it's not like he only made the Predator.
He made a lot of movies.
It's just weird that he's in Predator.
Well, the story is that they brought him on to do punch ups on the script for Predator. He made a lot of movies. It's just weird that he's in predator.
Well, the story is that they brought him on to do punch ups on the script for predator.
One, first one.
And then he didn't really do much, but then part of the way to sweeten the deal was they're like,
hey, we'll let you play this guy in this movie.
And he's like, yeah, fuck yeah.
The thing that pisses me off is that Shane Black's character could've had a beret.
That could've-
He should've had in my head, he has a beret.
To like, to like, to make everyone look different,
like a set of GI Joe's,
they're all like completely different looking,
and he was just like, nah, Hawkins, a little bit.
It's the mat graining school of designing characters,
make everyone identifiable by their silhouette.
Yep.
So you can look at their silhouette
and know exactly where they are.
It's a great principle to design.
Really?
Especially like, yeah, give me a break.
We'll stick out from everybody else.
Like you'll know, yeah.
There's a cartoon that's on right now
in adult swim called Smiling Friends.
That is, man, it's fucking weird.
It is just bizarre.
It's really good.
And it does that super well with every character.
It's just weird.
It's an ugly cartoon, but not in
like that Rick and Morty way of like, well, everything has to look like Rick and Morty
now. It's it's it's own weird ugly thing, but every character has such a defined silhouette.
It's so easy to like. Yeah, did it find. Yeah, it's so quick. It's so quick. I really like
it. It is, I mean, it's disgusting to look at. Um, what was that? Yes. Yeah, it's great. I think it's a, it's a very, very, very fun show. It's really
recommended offensive to the us. Yes. Very enjoyable. It's so bizarre and at 11 minutes, it's
a great time. Yes. So everyone's posture is shit. Yeah. It is. Everything's hunched and
gross. Like Foster's home for a match. Yeah. Yeah. How everything had, it's like it is. Everything's hunched and gross. It's like Foster's home for a match. Yeah, yeah, it's how everything had,
it's a different, everything had a look
and it was like a little too detailed,
but not so detailed.
It's very weird, very, very weird.
Not, not Ren and Stimpy close up details.
Oh, they have a couple of shots where they do exactly that
and you know it's from that Ren and Stimpy sort of thing.
Yeah, it's very good.
I definitely recommend smiling friends.
It's really funny.
And I'm sure it's on HBO Max eventually,
because I'm a double swim.
Oh, Benjing Steven Universe, that shit.
Oh yeah.
I'm like crying every other episode.
Oh.
That's, I'm so invested in like, it's a really good show.
I'm getting why there was so much hype behind all
this Steven Universe shit.
It's very well made.
That was on Disney, right?
Oh, Disney X to you.
No, it's on a...
Oh, a cartoon network.
A cartoon network.
It wasn't that bad.
Apparently it just went through like the worst production
hall on this is all second-hand information
for my girlfriend, but it's just like, for what it was,
I am having a great time watching it,
and it was just like, yeah, we're gonna cancel it.
And they're like, no, no, no, no, no,
I'll bring it back, bring it back,
and they're like, find one more season,
and it was just like, I don't understand
why I show like that.
I'm glad that it's over because there's a finite amount
in it from what I can tell it won't lose quality.
You know how those shows just kind of drag on for an yeah, but like it's a great show.
I'm so happy.
SpongeBob is still on and has been on for 22 years.
SpongeBob is suffering from this thing and it's had to be careful with my words.
I like this.
Yeah, here we go.
So no, it's the people that are making SpongeBob now. We're the fans of SpongeBob before.
Oh, yeah.
So it's very derivative comedy.
So it's not groundbreaking and it's not.
It's a Simpson's.
It's not changing.
Yeah.
There's original SpongeBob's crazy.

PODLY.
Yeah, that's the name of it.
PODLY.
Right.
Thanks.
There's an amazing documentary about the making of the like first season of SpongeBob.
Yeah.
Like how he pitched it because the Steven Hill Hillenberg or something.
Hillenberg.
Yeah.
Um, he was like a marine biologist, like, like student who was also in the illustration
in cartoon.
So his life was like under the sea.
And he had like these comics he made for some like, uh, some like facility he worked
at in, in LA.
And they're like, this is really good.
You should pitch this and all these, I mean, the famous story of like every place turned
it down.
Because, of course, yeah, this isn't a kid's show, but it's also not funny enough for adults to be an adult show.
But like their writing meetings was they would let,
or they're like, how their writing worked
is they would let the animators pitch like gags and bits
and they would connect the gags or the scenes sort of like
through and they were writing.
But like if one anime was like,
try and think like the like,
like, man ray in the wallet thing.
I don't know if you remember that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, it's much fun.
But that whole thing was like an animator's idea
that it would just be funny to banter back and forth
about like this not being Patrick's wallet.
And then like the writers were like, cool,
let's take that and we're gonna write an episode around it.
That makes so much sense.
And it would be like, they would have to pitch their ideas
in front of like all the other, like,
all the writers and all the other animators
So they there's like this amazing shot of like
There's wall of storyboards and all these like different animatics that they had drawn and the anime her drew
It has to go and like tell the jokes and the louder that's
Yeah, the more likely it's gonna make it into an episode
There's there's like a scene in in it's a marching band one
It was just like with classic, and it's,
the guys in the front are twirling the batons,
and they make them go faster and faster
until they turn it to helicopters and fly away.
And it's one of those things where it's like,
who wrote that?
And it's like, now that makes sense,
that was probably an animator that was just like,
ah, then they do this and then they do this.
Yeah, I think a lot of animation is done
through in storyboards.
Now where, if you can sort of get the idea across I think a lot of animation is done through in storyboards.
Now, where if you can sort of get the idea across in storyboard,
a lot of it and write a lot of the jokes
and a lot of like the action in the storyboard
without just going like, here's essentially
what it looks like in coverage.
I think a lot of like animation, a lot of cartoon is done there
and hopefully, there's angel Douglass's storyboarding and everything.
And I think that's a lot of what he goes through
is putting a lot into storyboards,
where you go, isn't this what animation is for?
And he goes, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think that's like, you know,
it's kind of a lost art of the kind of like
Lunitian's principle of like using the medium to its absolute
maximum advantage where it's like,
because like some animation does it,
some animation does it, some animation doesn't do it.
But I think like that's one of my favorite things
about like loony tunes, Simpsons, SpongeBob,
like obviously like, oh, that was a joke that was clearly thought out by someone
who either wasn't animator or thought very thought
like an animator.
Like, how can we use every part of the buffalo in this medium
in this episode to tell as many jokes
and kinds of jokes as possible in the given amount of time?
It's like, that's something that's very visual.
That's a visual gag.
There's a very, very famous Disney anime. I think it's Disney that like they were really just
trying to replicate like real life movement animation and he came in with the idea of like, well,
this isn't real life. Like what if we what if we went ridiculous with it? So when like Wilek
Haudi runs off the edge of a mountain, he freezes and runs in place for like five seconds. And he was the guy who came up with that, like influenced so much. That tech savory sort of school of thought and everything.
And it's, I agree, it's using the medium to its fullest. And I think where you see that now is
and not even for any jokes, it's anime. And I think that's why you see a lot of trappings and
failings of adapting anime into a live
action thing because you're not going to make, I don't know if you know this, anime fans
are terrible.
And you're not going to make any of them happy.
The weaves and weaves are nice and messed up my-
Yeah, you're not going to make any of them happy.
Since the film is on the show.
By making the show exactly like how the anime was, and then you're not going to make them
happy by changing any of it.
So why adapt it if that's the case,
you have to take sort of the core
and then build something outward from it,
you know, like a cowboy bebop or whatever.
And it's just like, well, here's something
that really fell apart because it wasn't far enough
in one direction or the other.
And it just like sat in the middle and it doesn't kind of hit
because the anime has like these, I think you can look at like a lot of stuff in color use and things like that where there's like tabloes and very like easy to kind of reference pieces where you if it's good Just make it and then that's what then the dog is there and they just did it
And then have you you guys watched demons layer?
Watch fucking I don't watch yeah
I know you can't buy you guys I meant do Andrew
I'm like yeah, like like I'm like Chris and I were screaming at the TV in the last episode
I'm not caught up. I just started because Randy is like a, you know,
Randy has gone from being, my best friend has gone
from never watching anime to now,
nine months later he has a Naruto tattoo on his leg.
Oh my God!
He just went through a crash course.
Are you Randy just serious?
I'm ready to get into a crash course in anime
and now he's like in love with it.
It's the coolest fucking anime tattoo I've ever seen.
That's crazy.
That is wild. That's crazy. That is wild.
That's really crazy.
Yeah, holy shit.
You know, Randy, that's a surprise.
No, it's not.
It's just like, I, whoa.
Wow.
It's amazing like Rockle E tattoo.
He has like drunken fighting Rockle,
which is a hilarious thing that he got that too on him.
But he told me to watch a demon slayer.
And I was like, okay, because I-
He's recommending anime to you.
Yeah.
Well, I, what is that? What the f- what a world!
I don't watch this anime, I respect the craft of it,
but when someone's like, you should watch this anime,
I'm like cool, there's 950 episodes.
And half of them are filler that you kind of need to watch.
I'm like, I don't want to do this.
But then Rainy's like, watch Demon Slayer,
and I started in the first episode, I like, te teared up and I was like, the editing and the music
and the choreography of this is like one of the most insane things
of any medium I've ever witnessed.
That sounds like fucking rad.
Anyway, I love Demon Slayer.
Are you doing DDoing Subs or Dubs?
I'm doing Sub for everything.
Okay, yeah.
I did the Dubs for like episode one and Demon Slayer
and no offense to any like English voice over actors
but it just hit fucking different
when you were listening to the Japanese version.
Yeah, man, that shows it also.
I mean, with anything like watching a foreign film or anything, you are so much more engaged when you have to like...
Oh, 100% attention?
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, when you can't be on your phone the whole time?
Yeah, exactly.
Exactly.
It's like that Bong Junho.
Yeah, Bong Junho, quote, about like if Americans could just get over the one inch barrier that is.
Yep.
That is something. It really like, I've been trying to watch like a lot of like a French film and catch up on just like a lot of old like
Criterion stuff and everything. And man, it really helps when something is subtitled and you can't understand it because you got it really
dial in. Yeah, exactly. And I haven't had to dial into like media in like a very long time.
I know my mom watched a Squid Game when I was like, what everyone was talking about.
And she's like, my mom like speaks different languages
and she didn't know that there was an option
to listen to it in like Korean.
So she's like, I can't get over how fucking stupid
everyone's like.
That was like, watching Korean.
She's like, oh, okay, yeah, this is way better now.
That makes sense.
I watched an example of the Korean,
or the English stuff for that, and it was,
it's rough. I would not enjoy watching it because of that. Yeah, it makes sense. Yeah
Conversely if there's anime I'm watching I'm going to Alamo tonight
Because they're showing boogie nights and 35
Millimeter I almost I almost got to go to that. Yeah, they still have tickets on sale today
I guess so I'm going it's like it's 630. I can't wait. I'm so fine
I love that. That's one it's 630. I can't wait. I'm so far.
That's one of my favorite stars.
Big Shed all day.

That's what I mean, and that's what I like about seeing Likris Pizza because it's in 70
millimeter.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Just that like the moment before it starts and you hear the projector kick in. Uh huh. And he was like, oh my god, this is so nice. Uh, I, I, I saw big nights, uh, at the Alamo back when, uh, in 35 millimeter, it's,
if fucking rules. That was so much. You're gonna, you're gonna see your
right, you're gonna see it. Seeing it, seeing it, like, in a theater on the big screen is just, uh,
what a, I'm, so, I'm jealous. I just, I just love it. I just love that movie. I just, I can't, I'm so excited to see it.
So it would be nice. I had a weird relationship with that
because I remember going to Blockbuster when I was a kid
and seeing the cover where it's Mark Wahlberg's character
as a cartoon on Zippings pants. He's got like pink underwear on.
And I always were like walk by and double take at that.
And then I noticed he was a dude and I was just like,
I feel so weird.
Wow, we're learning.
Wow, wow.
I just, you know, just like, we're gonna see it like coming out every time. And I was like, I're learning. Wow. Wow. She was just like, well, she's like,
coming out every time with us like, I don't know,
I feel and then I just go to the video games in six or four.

I'm trying to get a donkey to have beer out front because I'm like, I don't like
whether it's side.
I'd like to have a beer.
I've been to donkey to weddings that are your own.
Yes, me too.
And that's why I want the beer, bro.
I've never heard of this in my life.
Yeah, it's a donkey and he just kind of walks around,
and you can have beer.
I thought I had made a connection,
but I was just very intoxicated when I had this
interaction with this donkey, and I thought it just loved me,
and I was just, I was like talking to it through its beautiful eyes.
We were just drunk.
Yeah, and it got to the point where the guy that was like leading the donkey
was like, okay, we're gonna go right away.
I wasn't gonna like, fuck the donkey donkey but I was definitely like this donkey alone.
Thank you.
It was definitely like we were.
We were.
We were. We were. We were. We were.
We were.
We were.
We were. We were.
We were.
We were.
We were.
We were.
We were.
We were.
We were.
We were. We were.
We were.
We were.
We were.
We were.
We were.
We were. We were. We were. We were. We were. It's the July 4th weekend. Okay. I'm trying to keep, I like, sorry, I busted my fucking arm,
I tore my bicep and I'm trying to see
if I can get back on track size wise by then.
Because I have baby arm now.
When do you get that off?
This is my last day that I had to wear it.
What?
Really?
Yeah, no, so like I tore the bicep
and then six days later was in surgery.
Uh-huh.
Try to take this for orthopedics, obviously not sponsoring this episode, but they were
fucking great.
And they're like kind of fast tracking me.
Because it was such a fresh wound and they were able to fix it so quickly.
And they also were like, I've talked to my doctor about this and he was kind of like saying
he's like, I know that you like working out and that's your thing.
So we're going to try to take good care of you.
You're not an old man who's going to be sitting on his ass.
So they're being very accommodating for my lifestyle.
But you still can't solve the fact that it's healing for another eight weeks.
So what's your physical therapy going to be looking like when you get that off tomorrow?
Well, no, so I've been taking it off and I'm already doing physical therapy.
I don't get to do strength training
really like two to three. Yeah, fast that was yeah, but it is that used to just be if you were like in the year like six
That you just die I think I think you're a bicep tears and then they go leave on the side of the road
So I could have we just invented rubs
We've just tamped this down for the donkey still walk leave him. So what could have
happened? Quick, quick like what's the trigger warning for in the next minute. I'm going
to talk about my what happened. Okay. Okay. Is that the climbing gym? There's a thing
called a dyno. So you make a very dynamic movement. And basically I jumped off of one foothold
and then was reaching up to a ledge to grab it with both hands.
I went up with it with a lot of force,
probably overshot it.
I made it with both hands, my right hand slipped off
and then all of my weight went down on my left arm
and then I heard the pop.
So that was the bicep tendon actually disconnecting.
And basically there's a scar now
it kind of looks like a vagina they had to go inside yeah fish out the tendon attach it to a
button put in a metal rod loop the button through the metal rod and now it's reconnected okay I'm
done I'm done explaining I'm done explaining basically, yeah, like my life is kind of fucked for a while.
I'm still lifting weights, but it's really difficult and I'm only doing this side. So there's going to be some
kind of a cemetery, a cemetery, which is, you know, a big bother, but uh,
Do you know about my elbow dislocation story? No. Tell me more. This podcast took a turn. Yeah.
Another trigger warning if if bones and breaking things hurt you. Uh,
yeah, I'll say I'll just shout out myself. It's like the it's it's the funniest story to laugh.
You laugh at me. It's fine. It happened getting out of the shower. Uh-huh. And I went to grab a towel.
This is what is right when I moved Austin. I remember this because you were trying to take photos
and you're like, I know, I know. It's like how far I've grown. I remember this, because you were trying to take photos and you're like, I know.
It's like how far I've grown.
I remember it happened and I was like,
apologizing to everyone.
I was like, so fresh, I'm gonna lose my job.
I'm like, this guy dislocated his elbow.
He's out of here.
Take about back.
So yeah.
And I went to grab a towel, put too much weight on it
and slipped and put my arm out to catch myself
and all my weight went into my arm out to catch myself, and all
my weight went into my arm, and the elbow bent the other way.
Oh!
Yeah dog, Jesus Christ!
And I remember like laying in the tub, and naked, and water, I was going to shock, because
I could see the bone almost like
And then went to the hospital they put me under popped back in but it was like two months before I could I mean It was physical therapy was like every day. It was kind of like all right
Let's see if like they had like a thing to measure my movement every every day
Yeah, I was going like three times a week and it was just like all right this week
We moved like half a centimeter. Yeah, I was like. And that was like a couple of months of that.
And that's one surprise that, I mean,
it's different because it's not bones.
I'm surprised that you can move your arm.
But I guess it's the flexion and extension.
I've been working on it like crazy.
What's getting me is the supination and the pronation,
which is something that I'm working on.
They got me doing some weird shit.
They gave me a thing that looked like a fucked up wand
where it was like zigzaggy maze with a washer on it.
Oh, I had to do something similar. And I have to just spin it with my arm and I'm just going
by the end of it. I want to fucking throw the thing. Wow.
What is so this is going to be very stupid question, but when when you get it off and you start
working out again, is your bicep still the same size? No. Okay. So it is drastically smaller.
I'm also gonna have like some differences in like my shoulder,
my tricep, my chest.
Cause I can't activate any of those muscles,
or use them without activating my bicep.
So I just say, I'm just gonna be fucking,
what is it, Kingler from Pokemon?
Who's that Pokemon?
It's Blaine.
I have this bit of fucking arm,
and then I'm gonna add this little one.
You know who Kalim von Moker is?
He tore his bicep twice.
Yeah, his story is crazy.
Too many times.
Yeah, too many.
He was bicep curling 400 pounds of another guy.
Yep.
And then there's a video of it.
It just split and then he was like,
She's gonna get it, get it, get it, get it.
He was like 12 weeks into recovery.
Maybe even further, it was like right at a long track.
And then he went mountain climbing, he was belaying. and he lost control. Something was wrong with his belay. He not
only, uh, tore or dislocated his like, was a hamstring or something, but he also reached
out to grab with his jenky arm and then he tore, retore his same bicep. Ah, this episode
of the RT podcast brought to you by Winsing. Yeah. Uh, because that's all I've been doing
for the last 15 minutes.
I will say this will be the last thing I say about it
because it did make me very proud.
They had to send me my surgery notes.
Oh, I saw this on the end too.
Yeah, I posted it to close friends.
They had to send me my surgery notes
and it basically was just like a line by line
minute by minute, what happened during surgery.
And there's a line, well at the very top there like,
Blaine is a very, he's a big climbing and lifting advocate.
Like they're talking about all that stuff
and I was like, okay, cool.
And then it said during surgery,
we found that because of the patient's large muscles,
we had to adjust his tourniquet
because they were too large
and they were getting in the way
or some bullshit like that.
And then it said,
Auga, Auga.
Auga, Auga.
Auga, Auga.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,uga. It's like, Aagini, Aagini.
Hey, shit was erect most of the time.
But I was like, I read it.
Did you have a horny wolf in the corner?
I was like, my girlfriend was like,
oh, fuck yeah.
What?
And I was like, like,
my muscles were medically recognized for their size
by doctors and professionals.
Yeah, the doctors and nurses wrote down,
maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe. Very proud of you. Doctors and professionals. Yeah, the doctors and nurses wrote down
Very proud very good, but yeah, how does it feel? I know it's been sort of like you're in this
sort of like structural piece. It's robot arm. How does it feel actually like
Moving it compared to like your other arm. Does it this right is fine. It's once I get to the end of this,
I can feel a stretch that you don't normally.
Are you worried that it's gonna snap right now?
I'm not, of course not.
And then when I bring it in right here,
the scars right there.
So I really start to feel pressure.
I'm gonna give it a scar now.
It's a big fucking six scar.
So again, looks like a vagina right now.
Gonna be real cool in like a month or two.
That's awesome.
It looks like two vaginas.
Yes.
Uh, turns into boobs.
But like moving this, this, and this too far, it's the same thing as like if you like
roll your ankle and you feel that fresh shooting pain, like a nerve touching it.
Because they had to move things around and it's all just.
I want to say it because I knowing you, I know you're probably self conscious, you look
so cool with that thing on.
Thanks, Doug.
Yeah, you should get two.
Hi, you think me.
You and Cypher, what really?
Like, if we were in the future and you had to have that
permanently and it was like Chrome, that'd be so cool.
Yeah, like if you got someone like your legs
and everyone's just like, this guy must start.
Well, it looks like, it looks like that thing they
strap to Batman in Dark Knight Rises.
They strap to his legs to keep him like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, it's well it is funny because my
Dungeons and Dragons character on Tales from the Stinky Dragon subscribing listen now. It's great show
He he has a prosthetic
arm and now I'm like living I know his life a. Not really, because I can still move my fucking arm.
But it was a humbly experience,
and I am gonna take my stretching
and exercising way more serious,
because your body, you've only got one of them,
so please fucking take care of it.
I'm getting, did you see the guy who got the pig heart?
I'm living forever, I'm gonna be more pig than man.
A pig?
No, there's a guy, there's a real thing, where a guy was on like a heart transplant list, I guess.
This is all, I think what I've gleaned from this.
It's a heart. He's only heart transplant list, but like really low and he did like the,
I think it was like a thing where like he had to follow like these steps and it's like,
I don't really, he's not really following these steps. He's like, okay, look.
We have like this artificial pig heart thing we put in, you know, we could try.
And he went, let's do it. like this artificial pig heart thing. We put it in, we could try.
And he went, let's do it.
He's a pig heart.
Yeah, it's a pig heart.
An artificial like stem cell grown, like pig heart.
So, which is my favorite thing is what is the,
there was absolutely a moment when the doctor leaned in a bit.
Was like, yeah, I mean, you really not following these procedures,
but if you want a pig heart, I've been talking to you on this afternoon.
We're talking to Michael about it
because we want to become, I think, more pig than man.
Pigment?
Yeah.
How big is a hog talk?
Like, what can we do to get like hog limbs?
Do you want to be like top half pig or bottom half?
No, I think it's just parts.
I think it's just pig parts.
One arm.
But yeah, it doesn't have to be arms.
It can just be, it can just be in touch.
Yeah, big old Bortusks. But crazy ears break his heart now like it is he if he eats bacon
Is he like does he get heartburn but for a different reason?
You're asking if the artificially grown stem cell pig heart feels bad when it is fed pig
Big bacon. Yeah, you know what blame. Yeah, oh man. Have you guys seen the lobster?
No, no, no, so depressing. Yeah, I couldn't know the you know the premise. Yes, okay
It's you turn into an animal if you don't yeah, you turn into like whatever your spear animal is
If you don't find love within like a certain amount of time staying at the so tell yeah
So like one day this person he's like becomes friends with like we think he's like getting into becomes like an animal
He's like, oh, it's really it's really sad, but his whole thing is he's gonna become a lobster
Mm-hmm if he doesn't find love it's a depressing movie. It's not that bad. It's fine
I
What a ringing endorsement that one. Yeah, it's fine. Yeah, also euphoria season two not depressing
It's fine. Jesus is it depressing though. It's dark. Yeah, I'm kidding. There's like some content like
Everyone on the planet earth should watch Shinnler's list.
Fucking it peak of cinema.
I cannot hear myself.
I cannot hear you.
What's up?
How are you going to tie this back into Euphoria?
Well, no, I'm just saying, it's such a bummer movie that I can't like hype myself up
and be like, you know what, I'm going to drink a beer and watch Shinnler's list.
That sounds fucking sad.
That's not it.
Like I have to like, read it myself.
Yes, you have to steal yourself., yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm like, so yes, you have to steal yourself.
Yeah, you're there.
You're for you.
It's not Schindler's list.
It's like it is dramatic and traumatic, but it's not like the darkest thing that's happened.
Yeah, I guess just like constant like that though.
It's hard for me to be like, I'm already.
This is fucking in the market.
Oh, I get it.
No, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I just, I need to feel good.
I need Ted laughs.
But that's, but that's an aged thing.
I think that, I think that that comes with age
I think you just get to a point where you're like well
Beaten down for about 30 35 years
Anything good happening anywhere literally anywhere at any given time can I watch something like just isn't gonna just go
Hey fucker hey fucker hey fucker and like rub my face in it. Yeah
From a filmmaker's perspective
I feel like you would love the way it's shot
and edited in this whole new season
and it's being shot on Ectochrome 35,
which I think is really cool.
It's the first show since they brought Ectochrome back
to be shot entirely on 35-millimeter Ectochrome.
Wow.
And it's fucking incredible.
Yeah, I mean, the way they edit the score
and how they tie in like real music
and then like the score is the same target.
It's all unbelievable. And if you like the day, it's like she carries the show.
That's a lot of really cool trivia for a show. I'm never gonna watch. That's fun.
It's fantastic. I think like, you know, getting that there's like comfort, like comfort shows,
I would call them or whatever. Like, there are things like that like pieces of media.
Like, I haven't watched you for a year but the where it's like oh the you should watch this but I'm never in a mood to watch it it's like I have
a few things on that list where I'm like man I really want to watch this but I am never in the
mood to watch this thing and then there are things that I've seen that I would like like
like Shunler's list like I would consider one of those things like essential viewing yeah I'll
never watch it again. Yeah, yeah.
But I think everyone should watch it once I feel like night crawlers
in another one of those movies.
It was just like, man, that movie was Pete Jake Gyllenhaal.
That movie was fucked up and it was affecting
and like it was incredible.
I never want to watch it again.
Yeah, like I never need to see it again.
But man, I think you should probably watch it.
I think I saw you for it when it came out the first season.
I was like, if you also was behind and I, maybe I'm just fucked up.
And I just sat there and watched like four hours of it.
And I was like, oh my God.
I was like, this is so good.
And then Cameron Pester, he was like, he's been putting off watching it.
And I'm like, dude, just as like inspiration, you should watch this.
And we watched the episode last night.
And I was like, we're going to watch an episode,
but let's like save a couple hours where if you really like the first episode
We watch second and that first episode and then he goes wow. That was really good
I need like a week before the second episode did cedar watch it as well. Yeah, that sounds like not something that is upper alley
The if I had I don't want to watch euphoria. I do want to watch cedar watching euphoria
Just to see what happens. She like, poor Cameron.
Cameron was like, she loves gossip girl.
And I was like, that's not even close.
I was like, all right, well, this is like breaking bad meat
meets the skin show from the UK.
This is not a gossip girl, but Cameron's squad team
forces like video and he's a netter.
Yeah, for context.
Oh yeah, definitely.
And, well, I think she liked it.
Somebody on Twitter called you for a 24-degree
My favorite is the talk with Tick-Tock Trin of like, that's pretty good. A game ring for school
But forgot I go to you for a high. It's like showing so much skin. I've seen a lot of there's
It's like showing so much skin. I've seen a lot of, there's, it gives a fuck about Twitter discourse, but it's people
who have too much to say and too much time on their hands, so they have opinions about
things.
And they're welcome to the podcast.
And they're like, euphoria is pretty ridiculous.
It's not realistic.
This is not what high school is like.
Ah, yes, Dawson's Creek, the thing that's just like high school.
Are you fucking, are you fucking out of your mind?
What teen show has ever been made? What, say am I? Are you fucking out of your mind? What teen show has ever been made?
What, say by the bell?
Are you out of your mind?
What teen show has ever been made that has been called
Classic High School Experience?
I don't know about you, Eric,
but my high school was high school musical too.
Two, the second one.
Not the first one, mine was the first one.
Maybe the closest thing that's ever been made
to like an accurate high school experience
is probably freaks and geeks.
And that show, like nothing happens on that show. It's just about relationships and like
awkward moments and grung pains and going through puberty. It's very accurate, but it's not sensational.
Was it a Gus Fantzant movie that like elephant that's like about like school shootings or something?
It was like the post-columbine movie Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because it's not about Columbine,
but like that's like the like
school's good news, I can't say.
All of the stuff that leads up to like
all of that in that movie is like,
well, that's what I remember from high school.
Nothing happens.
It is just people sort of walking along,
people talking to each other,
other people staring at the floor
or into the middle distance.
And you just go, we'll get that's
well, who the fuck wants to watch this?
Boring is shit.
Terrible, terrible, terrible.
So euphoria I think is being judged poorly by people
who are just have a lot to say,
but have no conviction in anything of school.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Every public school is like before that, actually.
Oh, man.
We should probably get to wrap this this up, because this is again,
a pre-recorded episode. Um, we still have to do a post show. There's still, there's things going on.
There's, it looks like you got to make money, man. We're going to make it the boogie.
Cash and checks and snap and next. That's all we're doing. We got to make it the boogie nights. Um,
but thank you very much for watching. Don't forget to get your tickets at rtxevent.com.
