Lauren Martin is the blonde half of the sketch group, the Crawford Twins.
Starting point is 00:01:09 Would you call yourself blonde? I would call myself blonde. It's a sandy blonde, right? It's a natural blonde. A filthy blonde. Everyone says dirty blonde. Now, not that there's anything wrong with being dirty, but it's a natural blonde. Well, that was like a really Sue Johansson way to say that.
Starting point is 00:01:26 Not that there's anything wrong with being dirty. Not that there's anything wrong with that this is very sex positive culture let's uh embrace that so you're a natural blonde yes yeah i am as well i'm the same we're in the same we were probably very blonde as babies yeah was your hair like almost white yeah yeah yeah me too but i'm not blonde anymore really did you yeah oh i was oh i remember remember I seen the picture of you in your gay shoes.

Starting point is 00:02:02 Yeah. My mom lived up north for a while. Oh, where the air gets cold. And so she had like moccasin baby shoes.. Really? Yeah, my mom lived up north for a while. Oh, where the air gets cold. And so she had, like, moccasin baby shoes. Up north, you were in northern Alberta? Northwest Territories. Wow. So up north, north, north.
Starting point is 00:02:13 Yeah, north of 60. I didn't live up there. She lived up there with my older brother. Oh, okay. Oh, but then she brought you back moccasins. I wore his hand-me-down moccasins. Oh, okay. I was wondering how the moccasins fit into it, but you didn't grow up in the Northwest
Starting point is 00:02:28 Territories at all. No. Did you visit there? I've never been, no. Okay. I'd like to go. That was misleading. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:34 I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Shall we get to know us? Yeah. Get to know us. And get to know us. Dave, should we start with our guest? Or should I start with you?

Starting point is 00:03:00 Suck it to us. Holy. We can handle it. I am working on a new show with the other half the Crawford Twins, Morgan Brayton.
Starting point is 00:03:08 Morgan Brayton, the very talented and funny. Very talented and very funny Morgan Brayton. She's actually put together
Starting point is 00:03:14 a show during Pride. Oh, yeah. And it's not just going to be us, there's going to be some... Gay Pride, right? Gay Pride. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:03:20 Because there's all sorts of other ways to be proud. Graham and I are putting a show together for White Pride. Yeah, White Pride. I and I are putting a show together for white pride. Yeah, white pride. I'll be on that show.
Starting point is 00:03:28 That's in August. Only blondes allowed. How did we get involved in that? I don't know. I used to be in a band. This is actually a true part. I used to be in a band with a bunch of guys from White Rock. And they were described as a White Rock band,
Starting point is 00:03:48 but not to be confused with a White Rock band. Like a White Rock band. Anyway, go on. Pride. Oh, so we did a big gay pride photo shoot for publicity yesterday. So what does that involve? Rainbow flags? I was wearing rainbow denim cutoffs and a mustache. Nice. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:10 Fun. It was fun. It was totally fun. I wish I was a gay man. I wish I could grow a mustache. Why do you wish you were a gay man? Because they're so free and so fabulous. All right.
Starting point is 00:04:23 And you can listen to ABBA without being judged. Okay. Girls can listen to abba without being judged okay girls can listen to abba without being judged yes you can who's getting who's judging you what are people gonna think muriel's wedding that movie is my life actually that that's weird because i've seen that movie no less than eight times and i don't even like it. It was on Super Channel. Are all Australian movies super gay? Crocodile Dundee? Check. Muriel's Wedding? Check. What's the one with their...
Starting point is 00:04:53 They're all drag queens. Priscilla Queen of the Desert. And any Baz Luhrmann movie, really. It's pretty gay. Moulin Rouge. Romeo and Juliet. Who makes fun of you for listening to ABBA? The Straights. You know what?
Starting point is 00:05:06 I haven't talked about ABBA in a really long time. So you're just assuming people would come down hard on you for it. You can change your mind. You guys are very all-embracing. Yeah, we're very ABBA positive. Yeah, we're very ABBA positive. ABBA positive. ABBA positive. We're in a very positive room right now.
Starting point is 00:05:27 So you're writing a new show, and what else? What else is... I went bowling last night. Yeah, I went... It was after hours bowling. Five pen? Ten pen? I don't want to get anyone in trouble, so I won't say where, but it was like a friend of a friend
Starting point is 00:05:44 worked at... Yeah, it was like a friend of a friend. Is it in... Worked at... Yeah, it was just a regular bowling alley. In Vancouver? In Vancouver or in the surrounding area? In Vancouver. Oh, so five pin. It was five pin.
Starting point is 00:05:53 Yeah, you can't get any ten pin in this city. It wasn't Flintstone Bowling, no. This ain't a ten pin city. Yeah, I was talking to somebody who's here from out of town. They really want to go bowling but there's only it's outrageous yeah no and then he decided he was not interested after i said that you can there's the uh one in burnaby that's 10 pin that's probably the closest and it's on a sky train yeah and it's got glow bowling and stabbings oh okay yeah i know bowling alleys are hotbeds of
Starting point is 00:06:22 violence that's what you wouldn't think. You'd think it'd be kind of laid back. Would get their aggression out with the rapid, high-paced sport of bowling. Yeah, a lot of people just... It is actually the perfect cocktail, because you're getting a bunch of people slowly drunk over many, many hours, and then at the end of the night, they don't have to worry about their shoes, because they've already given those away.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Because usually I'm not violent, because I'm afraid about my shoes. my shoes i don't want to get my shoes all scuffed up and you you're with people who you're slowly discovering are uber competitive yeah yeah that's the big that's the big reveal over the course of uh bowling or monopoly i'm a board flipper are you yeah ah Yeah. Ah, it's good to know that. And I kept myself in check last night bowling, but I've had to be bowling. Because you can't flip anything. No. No, but are you super, do you get that super competitive? I'm under the scoreboard table and cry.
Starting point is 00:07:16 But I heard from you that you committed a crime with a claw machine. Yeah, that's right. You confessed that seconds before we started the show. I should never tell you anything. You stole a seconds before we started the show. I should never tell you anything. You stole a fish. I stole a fish. Was it a finding Nemo?
Starting point is 00:07:30 A plush fish. It looked a little like Nemo, but his head was like a rainbow sherbet color. I love rainbow sherbet. I like tiger stripe.
Starting point is 00:07:38 Ooh. But you, so there was a broken. Well, you know the claw machine. There was one, someone had smashed part of, you know the claw machine? There was one... Someone had smashed part of the glass in the claw machine, so there was a big gaping hole.
Starting point is 00:07:51 And I saw, and I want, and I have now. But that's probably fair. I mean... It is fair. Stop judging me. It's not fair, first of all. It's gets a lot. And second of all, why did somebody smash the thing and not take all the stuff inside?
Starting point is 00:08:08 Right. That's curious. They must have been really angry. Well, either really angry or they just wanted one thing. They've been trying all night to get it. I've wasted some money on those. Have you ever won anything? Nope.
Starting point is 00:08:21 I won something once, but it was sitting so precariously that i just had to do it what was it it was just a teddy bear it was pink and i didn't even want it but i just wanted to win something uh but i've heard that you there's like a way of doing it because it's misleading there's a mirror behind it usually yeah yeah and so if you line it up looking forward and then you walk around to the side and make sure the claw is in the right spot you can usually the thing is usually the claw hasn't got enough um hulk-like grip to actually pick anything up it's like having two chopsticks suspended off of like two coat hangers it's got no it's got no it'll grab right on the head and then it'll pull up, and it won't pull up with nothing. It'll brush the teddy bear's head.
Starting point is 00:09:10 It's like a head massage. A couple weeks ago, I went to Denny's. It's still got one, right? It's still got one in the waiting area. There was something that seemed like it was really easy to get, but there was a huge lineup at Denny's, and I didn't want all the pressure of everyone watching me. Yeah, because it becomes the thing to watch, right?
Starting point is 00:09:35 Because even if you don't know the person involved, you kind of want them to win that SpongeBob SquarePants thing. Because everyone has a hate on for the claw. Everyone's been screwed over by the claw so you think take back the night that's what I thought so that's what you did
Starting point is 00:09:48 is that what those take back the night rallies are about yeah yeah I always wonder what those were about um
Starting point is 00:09:57 so you you've been busy good lord I know can you believe it writing a show and pillaging and pillaging.
Starting point is 00:10:05 And pillaging. And what else? What else? Is there other things going on? That's a lot. Not to say that that's not enough. Yeah. I'm doing two shows.
Starting point is 00:10:13 Wow. Right now. So I'm keeping busy. When is Pride Week? The last week of July. Okay. So this episode will be out by then. Circle it on your calendar. Cool.

Yes, if you're keeping track in the Stop Podcasting Yourself sweepstakes, this is June 19th. So scratch that. Scratch that on your playing card.

Well, no, provided you have the other entries on the card. And that you get next week's as well. Right. And that you answer the skill testing question. Scratch the grandpa square until we say.
Starting point is 00:11:03 It's a wild card. What do you win, Dave? Oh, what do you win? A plush fish. Yes. You can win what I found at the thrift store today. I found the best thing. What did you find at the thrift store?
Starting point is 00:11:16 I found, and this like blew my mind. First of all, that it was there. It great-kentered your mind. Huh? It just great-kentered my mind. great getter in your mind huh it's just great getter in my mind uh it was a signed photo of john ratzenberger dressed in his uh pi uniform from the boston pizza commercials wow yeah wow can i scan it yeah okay it's uh it's at my house and it's clearly from a boston pizza and somebody took it at one point and has now just discarded it do you think someone stole it yeah wow oh yeah i think
Starting point is 00:11:52 lauren martin stole it probably my uncle is a big fan of his really yeah my uncle i think that was possible yeah to be a big fan of john ron well he's like the third biggest movie star of all time. A character actor. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Does tons of voice work. Exactly. My uncle, Brian, he does voice work.
Starting point is 00:12:11 Does he? Yeah. He's a cool guy. He's everyone's like, you know, he's like the cool uncle. Is he the voice of anything in particular?
Starting point is 00:12:18 He's the voice that haunts my nightmares. Oh. Because he told me the operator lived in the attic and if I messed around on the phone she would come and get me oh that's awesome i want to do that to a kid someday like tell them a thing that fucks them up like that like something that's fairly innocent but also
Starting point is 00:12:37 really weird like that like the operator lives in your attic and if you don't eat your vegetables, she'll die. Something like that. My first, not my first, but the first April Fools I remember, my brother was, I guess it was playing a trick on me, but he was just doing a scary voice all morning. That was the trick? Yeah. And it was, I want to suck your blood. We must to fatten you up. That was the whole thing. That's not.
Starting point is 00:13:08 But he kept going. I probably cried and peed. That's my nomination for worst April Fool's joke ever. I'm just going to do a weird voice till noon. Till Dave cries. Why is April Fool's only till noon? Kill the fun. Yeah, because otherwise, like, nobody's going to get April Fool's done.
Starting point is 00:13:27 Only the morning DJs can do their jokes. Yeah. I think it was created by the original morning DJs, the pagans. I would like other holidays to end at noon. Christmas. Christmas pretty much ends at 8 in the morning. Yeah, yeah. i don't mind christmas can go on all day i think that thanksgiving should only start at five o'clock
Starting point is 00:13:51 the rest of the day should just be not thanksgiving you have to work oh no wait i don't like that see yeah maybe this was a bad idea holidays rule holidays are pretty good yeah why did we start no we were on the wrong path. Yeah, I blame myself. Anything else new with you or just the John Rats? That was pretty, that was the best thing to happen. And then I was at the dentist again and they really fucking sucked it to me. I think in part because of my spaz out the last time I was at the dentist.
Starting point is 00:14:21 That's why. They took out a little fucking revenge on me today, I think. And yeah, like I'm hurting. So your advice is don't ever pick a fight with your dentist. Don't pick a fight with your dentist. Or your waitress. But he started it. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:37 Last time he started it and then I finished it. But then he refinished it today. This was a sequel. Yeah. And he wins because not only did he abuse me, he's also very rich. Right. And he's having an affair with a hygienist. I, not this dentist, but like a couple of dentists ago, I remember like lying there
Starting point is 00:15:03 and listening to what they were talking about and the way they were talking about it and the sexual tension like was I felt like I was I shouldn't be there because there was all this like
Starting point is 00:15:12 innuendo shit because they thought I was asleep because I had my eyes closed the whole time so they kept like saying things not like anything
Starting point is 00:15:21 that was explicit but kind of like at one point she was like you're so bad and i'm like do you ever say that to your co-worker anyone not banging um my my friend someone i know who i can't name because they are sensitive about this issue now well abby got her her wisdom teeth out last week and And I was talking about it to some people.
Starting point is 00:15:45 And this person told me the story of how she had gotten her wisdom teeth out. And when she went under, the dentist said to her, Oh, you're going to feel a tingling in your crotch. And she did. And then she had her teeth out and she woke up and like 10 years later she was telling people and uh she she was she brought it up to someone and they're like no that doesn't happen no it doesn't she has a bunch of friends now who are doctors and she was asking them and they're like no there's no explanation for that there's gonna be a tingling in your crotch uh doctors don't even use the word crotch it might
Starting point is 00:16:31 have been groin i don't know did you misheard maybe they said they'll be tingling in your arm and she went oh yeah there it is in my groin maybe she's just aroused by getting her teeth out i when i got my wisdom teeth out, they put me under. And when I woke up, I just started crying my eyes out. I felt like a baby. Like, you just feel all, like, screwy and helpless. It was weird. I felt the opposite.
Starting point is 00:16:58 I woke up, and the nurse kept pushing me down on the table because I'd lost a lot of blood. So I kept trying to get off of the... You kept trying to get up and drive? I kept trying to get up. And I was like, I'm fine. Like, the second I woke up out of it, I'm like, okay, let's go. And she kept pushing me down. And then I kept getting up.
Starting point is 00:17:17 And then it was her and then my mom both had to hold me down. And then finally I got up. And they were like, hold on to things. You'll fall over. And I was like, I'm fine. I'm fine. And then I did a face plant right into a woman standing in the elevator. The elevator doors opened up and I just went right into her chest.
Starting point is 00:17:40 That poor woman. She felt a strange tingling in her boots. Teeth. I still have my wisdoms. It's getting crowded in there. Yeah? Are you going to have to get them removed? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:17:52 I don't have any dental insurance. Yeah. It sucks. Yeah. It's the worst. Did anything else happen to you? I don't know. Lauren, did anything else happen to me? I't there you see any good movies yeah i saw the incredible hulk last night i liked that movie thanks for inviting me what
Starting point is 00:18:15 who'd you see i didn't invite you why would you thank me for that i didn't who'd you see it with i went with uh miss alicia toby oh it's weird because I saw her two nights ago and she was like, oh, you should come with us. Yeah. See, here's the thing. We didn't set out to go to the Incredible Hulk. I had gotten free passes to the Get Smart premiere. But when we got there, it was completely fulled up. And so they said you could go to any other movie.
Starting point is 00:18:45 And the only options were Don't Mess With the Zohan. And so you flipped a coin. And it landed at Zohan. But then it was sold out. So we went to the Hulk. Did you like it? Yeah. I liked it.
Starting point is 00:18:57 It was awesome. McWickeds and the Avenger movie that they're trying to point towards is going to be the bestest thing. Oh my god. It's going to be so good. You guys are nerds. I just hope Edward Norton's like he's kind of like not getting along with the studio. It'll happen. Yeah, we need
Starting point is 00:19:13 he's a great Hulk. He's an awesome Bruce Banner. And they did all the things. They played the soundtrack from the TV show. Yeah, they did the purple pants. The purple pants. They had Lou Ferrigno had a guest appearance. They always do that.
Starting point is 00:19:30 But Lou Ferrigno actually had lines in it, which was... No, I mean Lou Ferrigno's in every movie. Oh, yeah. No, yeah. He needs the paycheck. He needs the work. So this Avengers movie that they hinted, is that the same thing they hinted at at the end of Iron Man?
Starting point is 00:19:44 Yeah. The Avengers was... I don't know, the lineup kept changing, but it was Iron Man. What? No one knows what that is. What? Avengers. That's not true.
Starting point is 00:19:55 Avengers are pretty well known. You don't know. Abby knows what it is. I'm surrounded by nerds. Well, that's the shirt you're wearing, so just live with it. Preppy shirt. Dave only reads Family Circus. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:08 Speaking of which, you're a fan of Family Circus. I like Family Circus, I said. Did you know? It was heartwarming. Okay, there's like four kids? Four kids. In real life, Bill Keen, the guy who wrote Family Circus, there are five kids. Do they have all their names?
Starting point is 00:20:26 That's what I'm saying. There was some kid that they cut out. Like, you are not cute enough to make the cut. You never say anything cute. So there is. There's a fifth Bill Keen child that never made it in. Do you know its name? Its name?
Starting point is 00:20:40 That was its name. It. You know what its name is? Not me. Not me. Not me. It was the ghost kid. I have a French family circus book and the French translation is Quelle famille?
Starting point is 00:20:53 Which means what a family. What a family. A friend of mine, who I work with, very talented. It's not family circus. It's family circle. Right? No, it's family circle. It's family circle because all the No, it's Family Cir... Oh.
Starting point is 00:21:07 It's Family Circle because all the comic strips are in a circle. Are you serious? It's Family Circus. No, it's not. It's Family Circle. No, we're an idiot. Are you an idiot or are you being an idiot? No comment. It's Family Circle.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Alright, Family Circle, everyone. I think it started as Family Circle and they changed it. It's Family Circus. It's family circle. All right family circle everyone. I think it started as family circle It's family circuits. He's being an idiot I don't know. I'm so gullible. Are you are you being? Let's talk about my week. We did already. No, we didn't. Didn't we already get to no day? No.
Starting point is 00:21:48 We totally skipped over it. Here's what happened to me. The other day was no car day or car free day, I think it was called. Oh, yeah, yeah, car free day. I walked on that day. Where'd you go? On the main street where they had the festival. I watched the Buffalo Vampire Slayer on a screen out in front of Happy Bats.
Starting point is 00:22:08 Oh, what fun. It was pretty good. I went to Commercial Drive and it was crazy. Crazy smelly. Crazy packed with people. Oh, and it smelled great because all the restaurants had grills out front. Oh, yeah. grills out front.
Starting point is 00:22:21 Oh, yeah. It was, yeah, they closed down, I guess, like eight blocks of commercial drive and just had a big street fair to celebrate not having cars. So did that, so you've gotten rid of your car now, right, because of that day? No? I drove there and back. So it's a useless kind of affair is what you're saying. Yeah, but it certainly raised awareness for... For what? Kebabs?
Starting point is 00:22:49 Yeah, exactly. Kebabs in your local kebab-ery? Is that what it's called? Kebab-ery? Is that a place? Kebab-a-hut? There you go. Yeah, there was a lot of... I'll cut that out, too. Okay, please do. You know how we were we talked
Starting point is 00:23:05 about last episode about the uh uh east van or east side pride t-shirts yes i didn't see any of those but i did see two variations one was the t-shirt that says republic of east van that's ridiculous go on and the other one is uh the words east Arranged in a Crucifix. Wow. Oh, yeah. I've seen that one. Yeah. That's for the religious contingent.
Starting point is 00:23:32 In our neighborhood. There were a lot of weird things there. There was my favorite. There was a lot of, it was a nice day, so there were a lot of weird dudes with their shirts off. Yeah. And my favorite tattoo that I saw was an upside down Canadian flag on fire.
Starting point is 00:23:48 Wow. That guy's got a lot to say. But he doesn't know what it means. But he's saying it though. He's putting it out there. We brought Grandpa down and there were a lot of people with dogs.
Starting point is 00:24:04 And the weirdest one was this woman who had a chihuahua that she was carrying. And she wouldn't... I don't know why she didn't have it on a leash because all the other dogs just smell each other. But she was carrying it and she knelt down at one point and let her dog smell my dog's butt. Oh, that's nice. And then pulled it back up. Did you tell her that that's not right? No, I smiled awkwardly.
Starting point is 00:24:29 Like she was normal. Because on a day like that, she was normal. Yeah, no car day brings out the freaks. That's why we have cars, so that we don't have to be around those people all the time. Am I right? Like any gathering, it attracted protesters that had nothing to do with anything. Were there protesters?
Starting point is 00:24:51 We love cars. Well, no. Anyone will turn something into a legalized pot thing or whatever cause they have. whatever cause they have. What if the deal was that the government would agree to legalize pot, but only if we were allowed to put those people in jail? Like, that's the tradeoff. Pot would be legal, but those protesters would have to go to jail.
Starting point is 00:25:21 Isn't there a Todd Berry bit about that, about making it legal, but you go to jail if you're a pothead. I don't know. I think that there's something there. I forget it. Sure. I think my point was more eloquent than yours. Probably than his crafted bit. Well, no. I mean, if you had done his crafted
Starting point is 00:25:36 bit, then sure. I don't remember it specifically. But, my favorite protest I saw was something protesting people damming rivers, putting dams on rivers. Beavers. They're called beavers. There were a bunch of people dressed as a river.
Starting point is 00:25:56 They were painted blue, and they were all carrying the same tarp, blue tarp. And then there was a politician, a fake politician in front of them. No, it was probably a real politician. Did he have a parliament wig on? No, he had a bad suit because protesters don't own actual suits, and he was carrying a cell phone, and he was
Starting point is 00:26:17 yelling at the river, I'm damning you up! I'm damning you up! I like satire as much as the next guy, and that one is clearly as satirical as they come you like satire right and do you get the levels that they were working on there
Starting point is 00:26:34 it's clever right because he's anyways if you don't get it you're not gonna get it that's the thing with satire if you don't get it but the thing is I'm if you don't get it yes but the thing is is i'm glad because those hippies obviously they solved the fucking problem oh yeah because i looked in the paper today no more dams in this hour's 24 front page hippies protest
Starting point is 00:26:58 convinces politician that wasn't even there via a videotaped YouTube clip. Via podcast. Yeah, and so it's fucking done. So thank you, hippies, for saving the world once again. You did it. Real changes. You did it again. Congrats. Congratulations.
Starting point is 00:27:15 Kudos to the hips. Hips? No, they're called hippies. Okay, sorry. I was trying to make it hip. Is that everything? I guess, but that's so goddamn ridiculous. Now I'm all angry at a thing that I didn't even see.
Starting point is 00:27:28 I'm angry at a thing that you just related to me that I wasn't even there for. You love hippies and you love their causes. It's not hippies that I have a problem with. It's that kind of shenanigans that I'm like, why bother? May I ask you something? Please. Now you are a vegetarian. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:46 How do you feel about some of PETA's... PETA did a protest recently where they wrapped some of their interns in saran wrap. Okay. To protest the... You know, to say, oh, meat... That this is terrible. Like, they're simulating cuts of meat. Right.
Starting point is 00:28:02 But then one of the interns after being under saran wrap in the hot sun started taking a pass out and threw up all over herself i like that protest cruelty against people yeah is it not wait when you say pita do you mean peta peta i want to eat a pita peta i think correct PETA? I think it's PETA. I think you might be right. It might be PETA. But that makes my joke not make sense. Maybe it's not my joke.
Starting point is 00:28:30 It's not your joke yet. Don't worry about it. PETA, they have a thing. Like, their policy is that they want all animals to be free. Including pets. They don't tell you that when they ask for your donation. Yeah, yeah. So they're against having pets at all,
Starting point is 00:28:49 or any of that kind of stuff. And they also, they're in support of just letting every animal just roam wherever the fuck they want to roam. So bears in the city, that's not a problem for PETA. That's fine. What about pig in the city? Pig in the city, that's not a problem for PETA. That's fine. What about pig in the city? Pig in the city is cute.
Starting point is 00:29:07 Yeah. Nobody's against that. Right? Right. But, yeah, they're against pets. So, take that, filthy hippies. Because, you know, a lot of them probably have dogs or cats. Because they don't read the fine print.
Starting point is 00:29:22 Yeah, exactly. That's how, I mean, everyone just, when they jump on the bandwagon, kind of. Isn't Pamela Anderson, she's like big into PETA, right? Yes, Pamela Anderson served hot dogs at her most recent wedding reception. Oh, really? Scratched my head over that one. Well, really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:38 I have a hard time getting behind anybody who is so dumb as to marry Tommymmy lee more than once three or four times so she like i if she if if you have a really stupid celebrity like throw their weight behind your cause i'm i can completely discount that cause they get the worst celebrities to join up with them well they're who else pamela anderson was the that was the worst celebrities to join up with them. Who else? Pamela Anderson, that was the worst. Oh, just, there's so many people who have done ads for PETA and yet walk around with a leather purse. Yeah, they're the ones that
Starting point is 00:30:14 would do the, I'd rather be naked. Or like Jenna Jameson, yeah, just did that. Right. Oh, gross. I don't like Jenna Jameson. Jenna Jameson was naked? Jenna Jameson went naked for PETA? Crazy. That's crazy for her to even say that i'd rather go naked than starve than be unemployed yeah um yeah so yeah i got to see i because those protests do they ever do anything aside from give people like you and I grist to make fun of them with?
Starting point is 00:30:47 Do they ever? I need a good amount of grist. Well, because there was like, I went to a thing that was a political fundraiser. It was like one of Charlie's, somebody Charlie was connected to. And they did like a little mini play. I think you talked about this last week. Not last week. A hundred weeks ago.
Starting point is 00:31:05 But that was the funniest in terms of like... Right. We get it. Like the guy's wearing a sign that says politician. Yeah. I love money. But what about our parks? I don't care about parks.
Starting point is 00:31:23 I'm smoking a fat cigar the pig nose and cigar classic awesome all right uh shall we move on to the overheards yeah absolutely overheard overheard overheard but first brought to you by flavoravor Flav's new show that you guys were describing and what the fuck it was yeah Flavor Flav had a show in Vancouver it's a sitcom? a sitcom and the uh
Starting point is 00:31:55 it's shot in Vancouver it doesn't take place in Vancouver that would be odd he plays a guy who just got out of prison and moves in with his brother. Does he still wear the clocks? I don't know. That would be good.
Starting point is 00:32:11 He actually sings Clocks by Coldplay. He moves in with his brother who's like a rich guy and has a white wife and their children are mulatto. I know that because I interviewed to be a writer's assistant on the show. A writer's assistant? Yeah. What is that? Get them coffee and stuff? Get them coffee and stuff, but also do the actual changes on the script
Starting point is 00:32:38 when they come up with the changes that they need. I didn't get that, but in the interview they asked me if I knew what mulatto was. Wow. Yeah. Wow. Is that even the correct term? It's certainly not politically correct. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:51 It's the old-timey term for... Biracial. But I met the two writers of the show, one of whom wrote the Martin Lawrence movie where he's a knight. Black knight? Maybe black knight. Oh, it's Guy McPherson's friend.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Oh, really? No. Yeah. Black guy? He lives up's Guy McPherson's friend. Oh, really? No. Yeah. Black guy? He lives up here. He's Canadian. And he wrote that movie. The one about Martin Lawrence being a knight. Alright.
Starting point is 00:33:15 Ask Guy McPherson. Which Martin Lawrence knight movie? There's not more than one. April Fool's. Dave, you need to finish the premise, though. You're really selling the show. Give me more. Well, he has to get a job.
Starting point is 00:33:31 And he... This is the Flavor Flake. I only read the pilot. Oh, see, I auditioned for the show as Frumpy Housewife. I didn't get it because I'm too beautiful and sexy. They just didn't buy me. He goes into a lingerie store and he happens to be in a wheelchair
Starting point is 00:33:57 and they give him a job based on the fact that they think he's disabled. So he has to keep up this ruse of being disabled while working in a lingerie store. How will Flava Flav ever convince anybody that he's disabled? It's the craziest premise ever. And I thought them saying mulatto was politically incorrect. No, that sounded like a heartwarming family drama.
Starting point is 00:34:21 I was like, wait, let me just throw out there. He is pretending to be disabled. Wow. Is this a CW show? I think it's D-. Per chance? I don't know what network it's going to be on. Anyways, watch for it soon.
Starting point is 00:34:37 This episode brought to you by Flavor Flav's new sitcom. What's it called? What is it called? Flavor of Love? No, that's his reality show it's like in the house or
Starting point is 00:34:47 yeah something like that something urban I think isn't that that's Run DMC's house let's go to
Starting point is 00:34:58 some overheards Dave you were bragging it up something steady you said you had so many awesome overheards
Starting point is 00:35:03 I'm only going to give you one why don't be greedy because we've got to record three more shows before you leave town bragging it up something steady. You said you had so many awesome overheard teeth. But I'm only going to give you one. Why? Don't be greedy. Because we've got to record three more shows before you leave town, and it's very rare that I ever get any decent overheard. Oh, yeah, that's true. Okay, so this is your redemption day.
Starting point is 00:35:15 Redempto day. This one isn't even that... It's actually something I saw on TV, so it doesn't count that much. It counts enough. But who's counting uh i am i was watching the american film institute's uh countdown of the 10 best movies in 10 different genres oh wow and uh they do you ever watch the american film institute yeah i watched the hundred the count what was it the hundred best comedies i think yeah they've done 100 best comedies, I think. Yeah, they've done 100 best comedies, 100 best dramas, 100 best movies, completely 100 best.
Starting point is 00:35:50 Best movie lines. Yeah, they did best movie lines. I think they did the 100 best heroes and villains, 100 best scores. Do we really need an institute counting things down? According to Lyndon Johnson and every commercial break, yes, we do. Lyndon Johnson like Lady Bird Johnson? Like Lady Bird Johnson's former husband. Husband.
Starting point is 00:36:11 Well, they're both dead. Yeah. Yeah. Why was Lyndon Johnson being advertised? Well, on all the commercials, they would show he established the American Film Institute. They'd show a speech of that. They also do good work in
Starting point is 00:36:25 preserving old uh prints and boring movies don't they do that probably i don't know that's under their umbrella like uh yeah okay yeah yeah yeah anyways yeah so they did the countdown and uh i think this was in i don't even remember what genre it was. But they always have either people who are in the movies or people who know a lot about movies. Movie stars like Dennis Hopper would be talking about a great performance in certain movies. And then they came to the Audrey Hepburn, Gregory Peck movie, Roman Holiday. Yeah. Classic. And they had Jennifer Loveennifer love hewitt sure after
Starting point is 00:37:07 everyone was talking about great performances and beautiful lighting and stuff jennifer love hewitt said it's just a yummy movie it's yummy to look at these people um jennifer love hewitt she wasn't didn't she play audreyburn in that movie, that TV movie? Oh, maybe. Yeah, that's why. Wow, she is a voice of authority. That's why she was invited at all. It wasn't because of her extensive work.
Starting point is 00:37:37 She hosted part of it. Ghost Whisperer. Yeah, and why was Jessica Alba there then? Because. Two words. Sex sells, Dave. You think AFI is getting to the top of the pops on its own steam? I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:37:52 They should do the top 100 sex movies. Number one, what would you nominate? Oh, I don't know. Number one sex flick. Not outside of the realm, obviously, of por porno but like a movie that was actually in theaters released in theaters number one i don't know well what would put one in it would be in your top three then um the only thing that's coming to mind is this jeff goldblum movie called the the tall guy yeah where they were humping on the piano. Him and Emma Thompson.
Starting point is 00:38:26 Someone British. I know this is a celebrity crush time, but I love him so much. Now, Yummy. Jeff Goldblum? The tall guy was Yummy. It's crazy. Give me your sex movies. It depends on the era, that's for sure.
Starting point is 00:38:42 I didn't get to stall. Yeah, you did. You stalled quite a bit. Not as much as you. Number one sex movie? It would be something... Hmm... Yeah, let's... You know, it's probably something like Basic Instinct, because that was like all sex.
Starting point is 00:38:58 The whole thing... No, you know what? Bound. I never saw that. Jennifer Tilly and... Having sexy sex. you know what bound i never saw that jennifer tilly and uh what's your name jenna gershon having sexy sex sex and it's all like it was very stylized because it was the wachowski brothers oh really so it was like it was like crazy it was mind-blowing it was the matrixy i haven't seen that Did they use any bullet time? Yeah. Oh, that could go really dirty really fast.
Starting point is 00:39:28 But it was all girls, so. Yeah, that's true. But yeah, that was a good sexy sex movie. Sex movie. You? What about you? Top of my head, Short Bus is a great film. Oh, I've never seen it.
Starting point is 00:39:41 John Cameron Mitchell. Suk-hyun Lee. Suk-hyun Lee. I haven't seen it. Have you seen it? Fantastic movie. oh john carmen mitchell uh i haven't seen it have you seen either fantastic movie i heard it's got like a crazy there's like the craziest gay man-on-man sex scene in it yeah which i don't know if i'm i don't know until you're ready for it that's all all right gotta psych myself up to that yeah yeah um i'm gonna i'm gonna try let's write it together if you can psych yourself up
Starting point is 00:40:03 for that movie, and you can deal with the gay sex, then there's a movie called Sweet Movie, which I really enjoy, which is not just sex, but also people forcing themselves to vomit. I can't stand that. No, I know.
Starting point is 00:40:19 It's a hardcore, crazy, I think it's from Czechoslovakia, but it's a great movie. It's just really wild and really visceral and really cool.ceral and really. Huh. Really cool. Yeah. No, I don't like that.
Starting point is 00:40:29 I don't like that. It's pretty extreme. It pushes your boundaries. Extreme sex. It's like street luge sex. X Games. Street luge is my favorite extreme sport. Is it?
Starting point is 00:40:43 Are you guys over here or anything? Alright. I work in a video store, which is why I have an extensive knowledge of dirty movies. And probably have some great overheard. We're hoping. Well,
Starting point is 00:40:57 no pressure. I've gone to the point where I'm so embittered at my job that they really try and keep me away from customers because I have a very sensitive disposition. How long have you worked there? I'm not good at work.
Starting point is 00:41:12 That you're already embittered? Like two years. Oh, that's perfect. Yeah, that's the right amount of time. So lately I've been doing less customer service and more... Customer disservice. Customer disservice. Customer sabotage.
Starting point is 00:41:31 But there's a woman and she comes in and I think she lacks good people to talk to in her life. She's a little maybe lonely. Maybe a little crazy? Mostly lonely. But she'd been coming in for a while she was really
Starting point is 00:41:46 excited uh for prince caspian to come out and she kept coming in very lonely and the yeah the guy i worked with um he kept you know he he's there like pretty much every day and he was she's coming in and so excited and so excited and he's like yeah yeah yeah and then she came in one day after i come out she went i went to see prince caspian and i thought i'd come and tell you and he was like okay here we go and we have a big tv at videomatica where we just show movies or whatnot and sam the guy yeah now people can visit you i like like that. Oh, God, no. That's the worst thing. They don't leave. Sam was watching Tom Goes to the Mayor, which is an adult swim show,
Starting point is 00:42:31 and it's got really kind of flashy animation. Yeah, very funny show. Very funny show, and he watches it all the time, and he had it on the TV, and she's like, Prince Caspian was so great, and then she stopped.
Starting point is 00:42:46 And she kind of, her eyes drifted over to the TV. She went, I'm sorry, my epilepsy is just really bad today. I'm sorry, my epilepsy is just really bad today. Oh, wow. That explained a lot. I remember there were these epilepsy commercials on TV and it was
Starting point is 00:43:11 there were a couple of them, but they all involved kids. And one was these kids in a classroom and the teacher called on this one kid and asked him a question. I remember that. And the kid just stared into space and the teacher started getting mad at them. And this other kid went to the teacher and said hey she's having a seizure like you dumb ass teacher and it was just this tone of voice like what the fuck is wrong with
Starting point is 00:43:38 you she's having a seizure she's not just not paying attention to you like the rest of the class. Wow. And the other one was a kid having a seizure on the ground. Don't let them swallow their tongue. Another kid, say... Put a cookie in his mouth or something like that. It was like a Smarties package. Put this between his teeth. It was not the box, but the tube. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:02 What if he chewed right through that and then choked on some Smarties? But someone was a responsible kid and said, no, don't. Just let him have his seizure. I remember. Have you ever seen somebody have a seizure like that? I don't know. It's nuts. And I've seen it like three or four times.
Starting point is 00:44:21 Oh, wow. And one time, I didn't even realize that it was happening because it was in a cafeteria and i thought it was just somebody shuffling chairs around a lot but it actually like somebody like two feet behind me was on the floor having a seizure and i ate a whole sandwich and didn't realize like there was a crowded form behind me and everything and i was just i just chalked it up to cafeteria noise. What kind of sandwich was it? Oh, it was roast beef. Delicious.
Starting point is 00:44:46 Yeah. Hard to beat. Was it a dip? No. It's been too long since I've had a dip sandwich. Way too long. I've got it overheard. From the weekend.
Starting point is 00:44:57 Are there any vegetarian dip sandwiches? No. I mean, I don't know. I have soup. Yeah. I dip shit in that. Miso gravy. Dip shit? Is that the right phrase? Where'd that come from?
Starting point is 00:45:10 Can we just figure that out? Yeah. What are you going to dip shit in there? Give me your overheard, genius. All right. This is the thing. It's not so much what I overheard. It's where it happened that made it hilarious. I was in Queen Elizabeth Park with my parents. Not so much what I overheard, it's where it happened that made it hilarious.
Starting point is 00:45:27 I was in Queen Elizabeth Park with my parents. And as you may or may not know, they have like kind of like a frisbee golf or froth set up with the little chains. And there was a guy there with who I can only assume was a girlfriend and daughter or a girlfriend and her daughter. But there was that dynamic. And he was throwing a frisbee and it didn't go where he sliced it basically and uh then he freaked out and he was like it's because those fucking guys are standing there i can't fucking focus on my shot and then
Starting point is 00:45:59 she she is like it's okay It's just this one hole. Everything will be fine after this. And I'm sure she must have to say that like every day over something. Because if you get that wrapped up about Frolf, then everything else in your life is going to be fucking up. Oh, wow. That's so aggravating. You took your parents to Queen Elizabeth Park. Yeah. You went to a street fair, you said. Yeah. took your parents to queen elizabeth park yeah did you also you
Starting point is 00:46:26 went to a street fair you said yeah with your parents yeah okay um i chose to go i forgot to say this earlier i chose to go to the commercial drive one uh there were like six across town um yeah i went to the main street one and the i read in the paper what was going to be at each one and the reason i went to the commercial drive is because they said there was going to be Mexican wrestlers. Which there were? And a giant mechanical spider. That's the thing that I told you about. Remember, like, weeks and weeks ago, I went to that thing where I was on a panel.
Starting point is 00:47:01 And I went to the party afterwards. And it was all the marriage and stuff. That was the big draw. It was called Mondo Spider. And it's like a big mechanical spider that a guy drives around. It's like a car with legs. You never told me about that. I did too.
Starting point is 00:47:13 Prove it. You listen to the podcast. There's no spider mention. There is. That's all the proof you're going to fucking need. You son of a bitch. But, yeah. It's just this one segment neither mexican wrestlers or a mechanical spider were there and i was sad the mechanical spider
Starting point is 00:47:38 looks the best at night because it's got all this orange glow tubing on it and you can't see anything but that and so it looks then it looks like a spider in the day it just looks like a clunky piece of metal but at night it looks like scary town mexican wrestlers on the other hand always look 24 hours a day yeah los bonjovis so what did you overhear i already did it oh. Oh. It was Jennifer Love Hewitt. You're stirring the pot. Oh, no, that was AFI. Okay, yeah. Oh, our AFI segment.
Starting point is 00:48:10 Well, I thought it had to do with the mechanical spider. Oh, no, no, no. I thought you were going somewhere with that. I just wanted to bring up something I forgot. Like someone said, ooh, look at that spider. Someone said, there's no spider or Mexican wrestlers. There were people getting their hair cut. Ew.
Starting point is 00:48:24 Yeah. Every store that has an indoors had an outdoors, including a hair salon. Weird. And they were not sweeping up very often. No, but it was probably landing in somebody's kebab. That's my prediction. Do you want to move on to something else?
Starting point is 00:48:39 Yeah. All right. So you want to do Celebrity Crush Hat? Sure. Celebrity Crush Hat. Crushin'? Sure. Celebrity Crush Hat. Crush in the hats. Celebrity Crush Hat. Go fuck yourself.

Starting point is 00:49:38 1996-ish for me. 1999. For you. You're a young pup. Not that young. Pretty young, though. Yeah. On a scale of youth. For you. You're a young pup. Not that young. Pretty young, though. Yeah. On a scale of youth.
Starting point is 00:49:48 Super young. Yeah. If you guys want to see a young girl, go to Videomatica. Yeah. Ow! If you want to check out a young fox on the go, or I guess not on the go, on the sitting still and being bored. On the sitting and not helping.
Starting point is 00:50:04 Right. Trying to avoid eye contact. 1999. 15 years. I had a little crush on Justin Timberlake. Oh. So that would have been in sync days. Well, duh.
Starting point is 00:50:21 In sync with the curly hair. With the... With the afro yeah like bye bye bye but honestly though doesn't everybody have kind of a crush on Justin Timberlake what's the video where he was driving
Starting point is 00:50:34 in a convertible really fast I don't think that was him it was the bye bye bye video but it was Chris and Lance were in the car oh going to make out points. What was the one where he beatboxed? Oh, Pop.
Starting point is 00:50:55 Dirty Pop. That came out a few years later. Is that beatboxing? Beatboxing. My old roommate Dave used to always quote that the video
Starting point is 00:51:09 where they would stop singing and start dancing by going I'm tired of singing. Best wishes. I have another crush too. Justin was a little obvious.
Starting point is 00:51:22 The long nose. When I was 15 there was like a dollar cinema near my house or like a two dollar movie like repertoire is that what they call them? I think that's different I think that's a different thing altogether
Starting point is 00:51:36 can we cut that out? it was the two dollar theater we're cutting that out so if a good movie came I'd just see it over and over and um or if a non good movie came such as The Mummy and I loved The Mummy
Starting point is 00:51:53 I just partly because I had a crush on not Brendan Fraser the sidekick John Hanna he's a British actor he is yum, yum. The Weasley guy? Yummy.
Starting point is 00:52:07 He was Weasley. No, he wasn't Weasley. He was her brother, and he was like the comic relief. He was also in Sliding Doors, which was a movie with Paul Trow. You guys are such dudes. You guys are such dudes. Oh, I know it. I just haven't seen it.
Starting point is 00:52:21 But he's like, in Sliding Doors, it's like her life goes in two paths. And one is like, she's dating this jerk off. Oh, my mom like her life goes in two paths and one is like she's dating this jerk off and the other one is John Hanna he's the good one he's so I'd make out with him
Starting point is 00:52:32 what's he doing now? he's in the new Mummy the Third movie oh okay which doesn't look so good Rachel Wise didn't sign up I think that's that was Rachel Wise
Starting point is 00:52:43 she's moved on to bigger and better things. That was a vice decision. She is a handsome lady. She's beautiful. I liked her in Enemy at the Gates. Very talented. Is she?
Starting point is 00:52:57 I can't tell. I do just look at her eyes and her hair and her lips. Graham, you have a couple you said? Yeah. Don't steal any of mine. I got three, I have a couple you said? Yeah. One of them. Don't steal any of mine. I got three, I think.
Starting point is 00:53:09 You go first, then. Do you want me to do all three? No, whatever you want. We can go back and forth. The first one is a weird one because I lived in Ireland for a summer and I was... One of the cores. No.
Starting point is 00:53:24 What? Oh, the cores. No. What? Oh, the cores. Yeah. Oh, I thought you meant something else completely. Anyways, I thought you meant the Irish tenors. Those are dudes. No, but I stayed in my cousin's room. He was out of town, so I stayed in his room,
Starting point is 00:53:41 and he had a poster on his wall for The Net. So every night I fell asleep looking at Sandra Bullock's face. So I think, just by osmosis, I think I had a crush on Sandra Bullock for that summer, possibly. Wow, look at the worst posters over there. It was the worst poster ever. It was for the worst idea for a movie. It's like when they have a teenager's room in a TV show or a movie, and they always take properties that are owned by the same corporation.
Starting point is 00:54:15 My cousin's room was owned by Paramount. Yeah. All right. Well, I will take the... To block. All right, well, I will take the... To block. A woman, girl, who played the daughter on Sybil Shepard's television show, Sybil, Alicia Witt. Alicia Witt, Urban Legends.
Starting point is 00:54:36 Was she in Urban Legends? Yeah. I didn't really follow her career. I can't even picture her. And Mr. Holland's Opus. She was also in a couple episodes of The Sopranos. She's a red-headed lass. She was super cute.
Starting point is 00:54:50 She was the Hollywood producer in The Sopranos. That's right. She was bad. She was banging Michael Imperioli. Yeah. Banging. Good choice, Dave. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:55:00 I had a very sophisticated palate. What about Sybil Shepard? No thank you. Maybe Christine Baranski. But not really. He likes the sass mouth. On the topic of redheads in that era,
Starting point is 00:55:17 Shirley Manson, lead singer of Garbage. When they first came out, she was a dish and a half. You were in Ireland for a long time. Oh wait, she's Scottish. But still, she was yummy. I remember thinking she was
Starting point is 00:55:33 a very hot ticket back then. I don't know what she looks like now. I have no idea. Oh my god! Remember a couple podcasts ago when I was saying how I had a crush on Nikki Cox? Yeah. You know, purely because she was with Bobcat Goeth.
Starting point is 00:55:50 Have you seen photos of her now? Oh, they're on the blog. You haven't seen them yet. No, that is terrible. Yeah. I didn't realize. Yeah, she's turned into a duck face. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:02 That is the most awful thing I've ever seen. I couldn't even believe it. What happened? How does that happen to a face face. Yeah. It is, that's the most awful thing I've ever, I couldn't even believe it was, what happened? How does that happen to a face? Uh, surgery.
Starting point is 00:56:11 Too much. And injection. Oh, the poor thing. The needle and the damage done. Oh, poor gal. Cause she was cute.
Starting point is 00:56:18 Fucking bobcat. Yeah. Ruined her youth. Destroyed her. She probably got, uh, uh, plastic surgery to win him back. Yeah. That'd be awesome if heed her. She probably got plastic surgery
Starting point is 00:56:25 to win him back. Yeah. That'd be awesome if he dumped her. I'm hitting the road. You're losing your looks. Any more? Do you have any more?
Starting point is 00:56:41 No. One more. It was that same, I think it was that same year was uh selma hayek first busted out on the scene oh in desperado still to date i don't think she's uh out sex that movie that was top of sexiness has she been sexier in any other movie since i don't know i i don't uh and fr, she had that nice eyebrow. And a hint of a mustache.
Starting point is 00:57:09 That actually... When did Dusk Till Dawn come out? Oh, because she was the... She was the vampire in that. She was a stripper, too, yeah. Yeah, because 99, that was maybe... I had a little... I had a period where I had a massive crush on Quentin Tarantino, too. Before he got really bloated,

Starting point is 00:59:44 In the casting, we don't next generation, or whatever. And in the casting, we don't know a lot of child actresses, so we're going to leave it open. I know some. Yeah. I know enough. But just barely. If we can go, put Raven-Symoné in it somehow. Yes! Alright, well,

Starting point is 01:00:10 Aunt Becky. DJ. Stephanie. Michelle. And Kimmy Gibbler. Kimmy Gibbler. And then those were the real primary. That was the core. Because DJ had a boyfriend. Who cares about Steve? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:23 Steve was the Scott Weiner. He was the voice of Aladdin. Why were they even together as a strange match? I disagree. I think they were very good together. They were a really nice couple. Yeah. It was kind of nice because it was... It was like Stephanie Tanner and meth.
Starting point is 01:00:36 Like they just went together. They just went together. Should we cast Flava Flav as Stephanie Tanner, but methed out? Methed out. Or, you know what? You know what? You know what? Can I suggest a Stephanie Tanner?
Starting point is 01:00:51 Yeah. Tatum O'Neil. Tatum O'Neil in a time machine, or present day cracked out Tatum O'Neil? Present day cracked out Tatum O'Neil. I like it. Working for the dollars. All right, let's go from the ground up, from the youngest. Okay, so we've already got Stephanie.
Starting point is 01:01:05 Let's go back and do Michelle. Michelle, so we want to cash in on, we need, like, we want her to be the cute, sassy kid, right? Who's always, is there anybody on TV right now that's doing cute and sassy? Boy or girl? We could change it to Michael. Like that. Michael. I like the twins from John and Kate plus eight.
Starting point is 01:01:30 And they would bring a little... How old are these twins? They're like six. Oh, that's perfect. Okay. That's one of her ages. You would be taking reality show TV? Are they girls?
Starting point is 01:01:40 I don't know John and Kate plus eight. Oh, it's so cute. They had twins and then they had sex tuplets. They have eight kids. It's a nightmare. That's my dream come true. I don't know john and kate let's say it's oh it's so cute it's they had twins and then they had sex tuplets they've eight kids it's it's a nightmare that's my dream come true i don't know if you guys know that really i love multiples i did my grade four science project on multiples you want to have six children really you want to have eight kids that's the when i watch that show for ladies they think it's fantastical for For guys, it seems like a fucking nightmare. Because it's eight kids.
Starting point is 01:02:07 It's all your dreams. And you have to be on a TV show at the same time. I think they had to be on the TV show or they couldn't pay their bills. Yeah, probably. It's like that episode of The Simpsons where they put the kids in the zoo. It's that same. All right, so we got our Michelle. We got our Stephanie Michelle we got our Stephanie
Starting point is 01:02:25 we got our Stephanie DJ who can play her pathos her pathos DJ was you know she missed her mom sometimes and Becky wasn't always enough
Starting point is 01:02:38 maybe it's someone she was Kirk Cameron's sister yes and she is now married to hockey player Valerie Bure that That's right. So maybe someone who's either a sister of a celebrity
Starting point is 01:02:49 or... Fucking Hilary Duff's sister. Hayley Duff. Nice. Yeah. Hayley Duff. Not quite pretty. Yeah, just like Candice. Just like DJ. Okay, so we got the girls.
Starting point is 01:03:05 Awesome, that was easy. Now what about Kimmy Gibbler? Oh, see that's, she's, Kimmy. Raven? Raven. Yeah, Raven Simone? Yeah, she's got the wackiness factor to pull off a Kimmy Gibbler. And she's got good chemistry with Stamos.
Starting point is 01:03:18 I think I called her Kimmy Giggler, but it is a Kimmy Gibbler. It is Gibbler. Gibbler. All right. I have Uncle Joey. Oh, no, no. Becky. Okay, Becky. Aunt Becky. I see her as, what do you call that lady
Starting point is 01:03:34 that used to be on news radio and then she's already here. More Tierney? Would she not be the perfect Aunt Becky? She would be a great Aunt Becky. Or is she too tired at this point? She's maybe a bit Yeah. Would she not be the perfect Aunt Becky? She would be a great Aunt Becky. Or is she too tired at this point? She's maybe a bit tired.
Starting point is 01:03:48 Could she do Wake Up San Francisco? Yeah, Wake Up San Francisco? Yeah, you're right. She needs... Yeah, we need somebody with some... Could she keep up with a rocker? How about that? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:59 She's got some... No. Is that a little on the nose? Aunt Becky was really pretty. Aunt Becky was really scary. Aunt Becky was pretty? No. She's really scary. Okay nose? Aunt Becky was really pretty. Kelly Rip was really scary. Kelly Rip was pretty? No. She's really scary.
Starting point is 01:04:06 Okay, well, who do you say? When you said... When you said Kelly Rip, I thought you meant Kelly Clarkson. No, no, no. I thought that would be okay. Kelly Clarkson? Or maybe not. I'm down with it.
Starting point is 01:04:19 Yeah, fine. Yeah, sounds good to me. Tatum O'Neal is really out of place. I don't care. She's the oldest kid. She's the middle child. She has middle child syndrome. She's troubled.
Starting point is 01:04:29 Is the middle child syndrome the one that makes you look 60? If you recall, we did cast a Ninja Turtle in one of these. You must always remember that. Okay, let's move on to the uncles and the dad. All right, Uncle Jesse. He was like, I'm tempted right off the bat. Who would you say? I want to say Stamos.
Starting point is 01:04:49 He hasn't aged a day. It's true, he hasn't. Why don't we just get the cast of ER? And move them over? Tierney, Stamos. Why don't we get Goran Viznik? Do you think maybe in our celebrity stunt casting we just leave the stamos character
Starting point is 01:05:06 as stamos like he's just so all i think there's a lot of stamos is in hollywood i think there's one guy that could out stamos stamos and that's lamas lamas can out stamos the stamos uh i have no problem with lamas all right lorenzo? You down with that? Lorenzo Lamas? What about... I'm going to save Uncle Joey till last. That's a difficult one to climb, I think. There's a lot of possibilities. Danny?
Starting point is 01:05:36 Danny Tanner. We need a beanpole with a mullet. We need a tall, skinny guy. Nothing popping into... Jeff Goldblum., skinny guy. Nothing popping into... Jeff Goldblum. The tall guy. That could work. Does he work blue?
Starting point is 01:05:54 He'd be less annoying. He'd be more, I think, neurotic. I think we need somebody more annoying. I think it'd be an interesting choice. That is an interesting choice. Go younger. Gary Goldman. I think it would be an interesting choice. That is an interesting choice. Absolutely. Go younger. Younger.
Starting point is 01:06:07 Gary Goldman. Goldman? Goldman. Ryan Reynolds. Sort of this side of gay. He's a little muscular. Yeah. We need somebody
Starting point is 01:06:18 that's got like very little appeal. Sexually. To anybody. Tom Bergeron, the new host of America's Funniest Videos? Yes!
Starting point is 01:06:28 He's perfect! Is that the guy from Ed? No. Oh, Tom Cavanaugh! That might be good. Tom Cavanaugh. From Love Monkey. Well done. So that's our Danny Tanner. And then Joey, though. Joey, this is important. He should get a stand-up comedian. He was supposed to be a stand-up comedian. And he's gotta be able
Starting point is 01:06:44 to do the voices. Can't fake that. That get a stand-up comedian. Yeah. He was supposed to be stand-up. And he's got to be able to do the voices. Yep. Can't fake that. It's a tough, that's a tough role to fill. Not many comics do voices. Not enough. Daryl Hammond, but he's, you know. He's a little old.
Starting point is 01:06:56 Yeah, he's not quite Uncle Joey. We need somebody that's like, you know, fairly reviled. Okay, go through it. It's a complicated role because he's lovable but non-threatening to children. He does have that pedo aspect. How about Louis Anderson? No! I did not have the pedo aspect.
Starting point is 01:07:14 What did she just say? No! Oh, geez. Oh, man. Go through your little black book. I'm working on it. I cannot. The only thing that came to mind, not a stand-up comedian and not anyone who knows voices. It could be somebody who could play a stand-up comedian. I was thinking Spencer from the Hills.
Starting point is 01:07:32 He's very toe-headed. Oh, my God. He's goofy. I don't know who that is. I'm not married to it. To me, that's the pivotal bit of casting. You fuck that up, the whole project's gonna fall apart the kingpin um close pin um okay because yeah okay he's got to be a guy he's got to have the how about would uh because i always thought that joey's character
Starting point is 01:08:03 always reminded me of Jay Leno. But he's too old. You're right. He's too old to pull off. Who is the new Jay Leno? Who's the guy who does... Who's the ventriloquist for the old man and the jalapeno on a stick? Oh, I don't know his name, but that's... Yes, I would agree with that bit of casting
Starting point is 01:08:26 i don't know who who he is but he's an actual he does voices he does voices and he's a comic sort of yes yeah which would fall within the loose premise of joey gladstone but is that is that the guy man i don't think we're sold on it no it needs it needs to be a guy that's... Who's that guy that does... You've seen him on Just for Laughs and he does all the impressions. He does one of Seinfeld and he does one of Kramer. And he has a big yellow jacket. Louis Anderson.
Starting point is 01:08:58 How big a yellow jacket was it? Wow, this is tough. This is... This is probably why they haven't done it yet. Because there is no modern-day Dave Coulier. Yeah. It's tough. It is tough.
Starting point is 01:09:12 I can't... Anything? Is anything popping up in... You're having trouble with it, too? No. Wow. Wow. We have hit the wall.
Starting point is 01:09:24 He's got to be kind of tubby, right? But not like all the way fat. He's got to love the Detroit Red Wings. Yeah. And the Three Stooges. Is this our way of saying that Dave Coulier was one of a kind? There's no way we can come up with somebody to play his role. Let's get my uncle who does voices.
Starting point is 01:09:42 Yeah. Yeah. I wish he was here so you could meet him. Cut it out. Cut it out. All right. Well, I'm satisfied with nothing.
Starting point is 01:09:52 With the jalapeno guy? No. No. Maybe Coulier could play Coulier. Coulier's, I think, the only... What's he doing these days? Nothing. He's starring in our remake.
Starting point is 01:10:01 Yeah. I think he's the one guy that can't be replaced. What about if Joey was played by Elton John? in our remake. Yeah. I think he's the one guy that can't be replaced. What about if Joey was played by Elton John? It would be a whole new show.
Starting point is 01:10:11 It would be a whole new... I like to cast outside the box. What if Joey was played by a computer animated gorilla? Dave's eyes got really big
Starting point is 01:10:25 he could be like yeah he could be an animated character a Roger Rabbit I like a Roger Rabbit a Wayne Gretzky from Pro Stars
Starting point is 01:10:33 yes can we do that yeah alright alright Wayne Gretzky from Pro Stars Wayne Gretzky from Pro Stars cast
Starting point is 01:10:43 and then when they had their like special episodes like when the Beach Boys showed up, we could have Bo Jackson show up. Nice. The other Pro Stars. It was Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan. And Michael Jordan.
Starting point is 01:10:54 Who would play the Beach Boys? The Ventures. And so forth. I think this has been a pretty successful venture, shows-wise. Are you going to Photoshop these people into a cast picture? Yes, you betcha. Nice! Can't wait.
