Starting point is 00:02:50 Yeah. Heart-shaped pizza is trending because of Valentine's Day. I wonder if this is... I thought maybe this was about one heart-shaped pizza, but when I looked at the trend, it was like that there are just a lot of articles of being like, this is where you get a heart-shaped pizza. This place in town tonight is doing heart-shaped pizzas i i assume this was a weird out parody of heart-shaped box oh wow well i when i my whole thing is how do you slice a
Starting point is 00:03:18 heart-shaped pizza properly you can't yeah i think you just have to eat it Lady and the Tramp style from one side to the other. Or you fold it and it turns into like a weird half heart and then you eat it like that. I don't know. Let us know. But is this, do you think, a lazy person search thing? Or some people just really love the idea of like, you know what? I love pizza. People love love.
Starting point is 00:03:43 So why not? Yeah, I guess so. Love it, guys. It also reminds me of Valentine's Day projects in elementary school, which I think is like peak Valentine's Day, when you're like giving out the Valentines and getting the Valentines. I saw somebody on Twitter being like, Valentine's day is stupid because it like
Starting point is 00:04:07 forces children to like start uh behaving in a way that like this weird courting ritual yeah weird courting ritual that that's kind of a valid point that i hadn't really thought of but um i also think it's cute it's just as long as you take it as just a fun excuse to have paper decorations. Yeah, not be like, you're a boy, so you have to give a Valentine to a girl. Right, exactly. And you're a girl, so you should measure your worth
Starting point is 00:04:34 by how many Valentines you receive. You guys kissing? Oh, why do you kiss each other? Like, you're my teacher. Right. Yeah, but it's just a good good excuse for some cute decorations uh and heart-shaped pizza seems like it ties into that anyways uh go get your heart-shaped pizza and that's that way your partner knows it's real yeah that's right uh hide a ring in it and propose a crystal Pepsi ring,
Starting point is 00:05:05 which we will talk about on Monday's episode. Tuesday. Oh, yeah, we got a long weekend coming up. Stranger Things 4. Yeah, teaser came out. New trailer drop. Teasy. Teasy, cheesy.
Starting point is 00:05:16 And look, if you didn't watch 3, this is a spoiler. Skip forward. Skip forward because I don't want to talk about it. If you don't care or whatever, then stick around. Because in the teaser, we see that Hopper, David Harbour's character, is not dead? What? Alive, maybe? Because at the end of three, he sacrificed himself to save Hawkins and the world, possibly.
Starting point is 00:05:42 Who's Hawkins? The town they live in oh okay big fan did you how far did you get in stranger things season one oh that's it yeah okay look it's up to you it's fine did you not it did it not resonate with you or you just don't have i just thought it was fine i thought it was like a fun little kind of shallow exercise and fun nostalgia that i didn't need to i didn't need need to dig that much deeper in. Because you lived it, man. I was actually
Starting point is 00:06:10 pressured into watching season one by Her Majesty and Daniel O'Brien because they were just talking about it on a trip we took one time and they were just really into it. So I watched it and I liked it it but then i never
Starting point is 00:06:26 had that experience again where people were like oh man stranger things is so good and like people you know you have to like hear from people you really respect that like they love the show i i don't love it but i like i enjoy you like it a lot because i like that they really honor the period yeah and not like you know people do takes on 80s shit and then like you see like weird technology like that shit wouldn't be there and it kind of takes you out so it's a little more immersive but then i knew they were taking it seriously when hopper was smoking cigarettes in the first season yeah exactly i was like that is some real 80s in a hospital yeah in a NICU unit um I think so jarring when you look back at 80s
Starting point is 00:07:07 movies and like the Ghostbusters are smoking cigarettes for no reason they're like just cuz yeah uh but yeah I mean I it's I enjoy it just because like it's it's good uh you know nostalgia and the Duffer Brothers I like the music in it and just like the you know the sometimes it gets a little predictable but yeah that's why i'm like i don't watch it the second it comes out like usually like time like i didn't watch three until maybe like four or five months after or six months after it'd come out and then i was like i got time yeah see what it's about yeah i'm gonna probably watch it now that you know you're a person i respect you like it a lot so i'm gonna check it out yeah season two and season three we're good it's up to you as good as season one up to you okay that's where it's like more
Starting point is 00:07:50 just like that's why season one i liked and then i was like okay these are fine i like season three too because a lot of it takes place in a mall in the 80s and after like listening a little bit to the companion podcast and sort of like the lengths they go to really make sure the mall is like as authentic as possible authentically 80s yeah i mean that was the center of 80s culture yeah was the mall yeah and like that's why they make it they really anchor the third season and the mall because it's like this is like really the cultural crossroads of our country at the time yeah was that movie that was like a post-apocalyptic 80s movie about like teenagers like billy jack or something or uh where like the it's like a bunch of teenagers and a teen gang and it takes place at least partially in a mall okay anyways malls shout out to mall and shout out to the teen mall
Starting point is 00:08:40 gangs yes i was a part of one were you really well not like a you know just more like a crew of like kids who don't have anything to fucking do so they're just at the mall rat type shit yeah yeah uh banksy is trending he uh put a new work of art on a wall in england in it and uh it's uh it's cool i i mean it seems at this point like you know he stencils some cool shit on a wall there's like a three-dimensional aspect to it what is it a little kid with a slingshot and a heart that's exploding or something yeah i think so yeah like it's the exploding heart in bristol his hometown appears to be dripping off a slingshot of flowers a slingshot of flowers but it looks bloody but it looks bloody so shout out to banksy and yeah if you've not heard of this underground artist yeah get ready we got the the hot take
Starting point is 00:09:40 uh if you've been in a coma since 2004 i feel like uh what malls were to the 80s banks is it banksy was to the 2000s what do you mean the aughts just like cultural like the cultural center that people will be like oh yeah that was the thing of that time oh going it's like run to see a banksy yeah yeah yeah yeah for years i walked by one i didn't know oh really i was like oh okay i just thought it was like pete davidson's character yeah okay okay um and then finally fantasy island is trending a new trailer came out for fantasy island fantasy island movie uh and it really takes a turn on you yeah it's like oh this is gonna be a fun you know 70s reboot probably steamy some steamy things happening yeah because i'm like okay where
Starting point is 00:10:33 are we going with this the trailer starts off very fun these people go to a sick ass island dude right they got the guys on the jet packs with water and a pool there's tiki torches there's all kinds of weird only steam that's happening is at the dry cleaner because you're going to shit your pants. This thing is scary as fuck. Yes, it's a full-on horror take on it. And you can use that quote in the trailer. Yeah, it's a horror movie.
Starting point is 00:10:59 Turns into a horror. Where essentially you're granted one fantasy on the island. Yeah. And it seems like, like oh it's going to be like some indulging fantasy it's got like the monkey's paw thing where it's like it twists on you yeah it's like oh you wanted revenge on an old classmate yeah yeah and then it gets dark as fuck psych no you didn't all the staff is creepy and is getting random nosebleeds yeah random nosebleeds from the staff you know you're in trouble especially when they don't feel it it just like any trailer when someone gets a random nosebleed you Yeah, random nosebleeds from the staff. You know you're in trouble, especially when they don't feel it.
Starting point is 00:11:25 Any trailer when someone gets a random nosebleed, you're in for a ride. Yeah. Then one of their eyes starts twitching. I was actually surprised at how, at first just reading about it, I'm like, okay, cool. Fantasy Island is a horror reboot.
Starting point is 00:11:38 But the trailer, I don't really watch a lot of horror, but I was like, oh, this might do well. Yeah, it looked like a Blumhouse movie that, because it is a Blumhouse movie, but it looked kind of high budge for a Blumhouse movie. There's like planes exploding in the sky. Yeah, well, they don't have to blow up a real plane.
Starting point is 00:11:55 I'm pretty sure they can do that with computers. Nah, no way. Chris Nolan asked. He's like, no, we do it in camera. All the horror shit in camera.
