Rydyn ni'n byw yn y fath, ac yn cwmio'n gwaith. Sometimes I wish
We could take a trip by
But even a bit of trouble
And heartache And pay for another day
I will search for that place
But till I find it all I can say
Alright, yes.
Are these things going?
This feels... This feels insane.
I guess we're off.
I was actually stunned. I thought that was a false start. So we're off. I was actually stunned.
I thought that was a false start.
So we're in.
Hello, welcome along to the worst idea of all time podcast.
Me, Guy Montgomery.
And me, Tim Batt.
A podcast in which we watch and review grown-ups to once a week for a year.
This is our 31st episode.
Welcome to any of our new listeners.
It sounds a little crazy on paper.
When you lay it down.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, obviously, but we're here.
And we have to acknowledge we do have some new listeners.
They've come along courtesy of a shout out we got from...
How did this get made?
That's how the jingle goes.
That's good.
They very generously just noticed that we were doing it and so she mentioned us that's a that's that's the biggest deal that
was big for me huge that was very huge for me also exciting and if i had won a google run
competition for podcasts where it was like um you got a ten thousand dollar first place prize
yeah and we won that i would still be more stoked with the shout out from paul share that's
there's a there's a look of earnest there's an earnest look in your eyes tim and i can really
appreciate that yeah i'm just saying thanks paul And everyone on how this is getting made.
It means about $10,000 to us.
You're pretty much...
At least.
At least.
Like at a minimum.
Which is insane.
Well, it sounds insane.
It's a lot of money.
It's a good thing.
Yeah.
Anyway, so here we are.
We've just watched the movie for the i say thanks thanks
and welcome obviously a lot of you are american which i'm very excited about we can see where
you're from on our on the sets and there's a lot of americans coming in getting on board we're like
the gcsb yeah of our own podcast there's someone at the door what are you looking at i'm just
looking around the room okay look it's a good room we're in tim's lounge
he's got a lot of cool stuff going on there's a picture of tim there's two pictures of tim in his
own lounge there's one of them looking looking down on that's absolutely true that's the weird
thing a really nice headshot of tim looking down on everyone saying what is that saying that speech
bubble um voting is sexy voting is sexy and it's above the fireplace it's got like prime position
that's where you'd put the best painting you have and you guys have just got a picture of you
timbat propaganda and it's very propaganda it's gay it's it's like a kim jong-il shot i went out
shopping one day to the supermarket and came back and they were all worshipping the fireplace.
And I don't know what the fuck was going on.
Your flatmates were worshipping the fireplace?
Yeah, yeah, they were worshipping the fireplace on their hands and knees.
And so I came and started worshipping with them.
And then I think Nick poked me and he goes,
no, no, you don't understand, and pointed up.
And I looked up and that fucking picture of me was nailed to the wall it's quite confronting shit yeah i had no idea
and what happened what happened next then i got real scared because the landlord probably doesn't
want us putting nails in the wall yeah but when the landlord sees the picture they'll probably
understand what's going on here they'll know who's
in charge now
he came around
he saw it
but he may have
just like glossed
over it
because I don't
know if he was
paying too much
attention to the
it's nails
he was probably
intimidated by it
if you ask me
he probably took
one look at it
and then quickly
turned his head
because he didn't
want any more
details
the funny thing is
he only saw it
so quickly
I was the only
guy in the house
I saw it through so maybe you're right only saw it so quickly, he completely missed it. I was the only guy in the house. I saw it through, so maybe you're right.
He saw it.
He was like, wait a minute, is that the guy that just opened it?
Is that you?
Oh my God, you're the guy.
And then freaked out.
He doesn't want to take on the Fuhrer.
He was like, do you just put these up
When the flatmates go out
And then when they come back
You put the normal pictures back up do you
Nope
This is what you do when it's just you at home
You just put those pictures up
Positive affirmations
You can do it Tim
Go get them Tiger
Five o'clock rolls around
You take the posters back down it's all
gotten very that one i think i was gonna burn that's a good one the fire the fire pile or in
the recycle it was somewhere i threw it out and the flatmates found it and then came back that
one up it's like you're respawning for everything you try and
throw away
to come back
yeah
anyway
so we've
watched the movie
grown ups too
it's a great movie
I've compiled a
list of things
I thought
during the movie
we need to
explain
you can explain
that Tim
that
guy's been
taking notes
through the
entire movie
because the
last couple
we've been a
bit hazy about that and he's been sure notes through the entire movie because the last couple we've been a bit hazy about that.
And he's been sure to include a very large level of detail
and it's laid out on his MacBook Air.
Can I, before you lay it to waste,
can I please explain at least what I was trying to capture
with this text edit document I've created.
So I was pretty much,
because we always sort of scatter our thoughts down somewhere during the movie uh and i was doing it on the computer and
then while tim was doing a technical setup which was taking a little while my mind was wandering
and i was looking at the document i thought to make it easy for us i'll try and arrange it into
sort of an easy to use guide to what we should touch on during the podcast and i've gone into
some level of detail i've used different font sizes.
I've attached quotes from the internet.
I've put a big picture of Adam Schwarzenegger
with the sun in a urinal.
You've ensured that the important bits are in bold.
Yeah.
And so I've got that ready for us.
I think there's a hyperlink on here.
So it just looks like digital chicken scratch to me.
It doesn't make any fucking sense.
There's no rhyme or reason.
Do you want me to...
It looks...
I said this earlier,
but it looks like the cave drawings of the retarded.
Honestly, it's actually really good.
So, go to the top.
It's just like...
It's like, you know in movies
when they stumble into
the really psycho dude's house
and he's got newspaper clippings
of everything?
That's what this is.
Like,
this,
it's this level of fucking like,
this dude's insane
and gonna kill someone.
If you just give me,
me and my cave drawing
one shot,
we're gonna do the best
damn podcast
you've ever experienced, bud. Okay. Come on this journey with me. Words you just give me, me and my cave drawing one shot, we're going to do the best damn podcast you've ever experienced, bud.
Okay. Come on this journey with me.
Words on here as well, like
I guess they
make sense. They don't seem to though. No, this is
why it's so good. It's because to anyone else,
this document. To anyone else, bro,
this is why it's so much.
Sandlot. You're the only
other person who could possibly understand
the contents of this document
and you've just lain it completely to waste in front of my very eyes you're the only other
person in the world who could possibly have understood what was going on here and you just
said mate this looks like you've picked up a piece of wood and just scratched it on the ground for a
while do you think that it would be possible for you to read it in the morning kind of as a new person like from probably
not with the same confidence that i could read it now but uh and say i think i think you're gonna
enjoy it so this bit here it's all right we got a letter so what you said you told me huge letters
yeah because i can't remember it's just it's like there's a lot of small text around it
so when you kind of
just glance at the page
you go
we got a letter
you're doing an Adam Sandler
impersonation
while reading that
anyway
we should go into the
contents of it
I don't want to shoot
the messenger
if the messenger's got a dope message
Well they do
You told me about this messenger
I haven't actually read it
I copied and pasted it
Without looking at it
Oh
From where?
We got it on Facebook
From some guy
Oh yes yes yes
Okay I know what this is
Okay great
Oh
Took a long time to get to what this is
Okay cool
Um
So
We got a message from one of our Facebook fans, which is cool.
I don't want to call them Facebook fans.
I want to say people who have liked our group on the Facebook.
You might fucking hate us.
We can just call them friends or fans.
We haven't had this conversation.
Anyway.
You say friend of the podcast
That's a cool thing to say
Friend of the podcast
It seems overly
Overly congenial
I mean
It's too much
I don't think if anyone listens to this
Then
We could be their friends
So a friend of the podcast wrote us
And I can't pronounce their name
Because there's a lot of
What looks to me to be Russian characters in it.
Possibly Korean.
They could go either way, eh?
They could be Korean.
I'm too ignorant on the matter to possibly guess.
It looks slightly Arabic.
I'm not sure what language that name is.
It's not important.
What is important are the contents of it.
I will read the letter, which arrived just a day or two ago.
Oh, okay.
I've been listening to your podcast for about a week now,
got through all the episodes fast.
English is not my first language,
and although it's been years since I started learning it,
I've found it is a sort of bouquet of various accents,
all understandable to me to various degrees.
And yours is quite interesting.
That's all one sentence with some commas in there to let you break.
And the next sentence goes,
I've been getting used to,
I've been getting used to the news.
Oh,
fucking hell.
Okay.
I'm getting used to the New Zealandaland accent thanks to you got guys now
i have lost the ability to read right that's terrifying next sentence i can have a crack at
reading what i'm trying to say is not only is your podcast entertaining it is also educational
in a many spheres of life who would have known connecticut was a state indeed not me but i know that now thanks to you loving
your podcast to keep up the good work i hope this was the right place to message you that is such a
lovely message the idea that someone's speakably cool the fact that someone would use this to help
them learn a language is frankly worrying and also really humbling
yeah
I'm touched and worried too
on both of those things
thank you very much
that explains the we got a letter big heading ahead
lined up for you there Tim
because it got me all misty
all misty Tim
all misty
what else do you want to delve into on your chalkboard?
I'm mentally insane.
I don't know.
Do you want to do...
Dude, this is like a fucking magic eye.
Like, you'd have to be very, like, squinty to see into this one,
to see the real picture
well what we could do
we'll upload the document
to the Facebook page
after the podcast
and you can have a lot of look inside
I haven't really re-read it yet
it's pretty
it's pretty alright.
I mean, it's going to look weird to you,
but I can stand by it.
I mean, if I had to do a PowerPoint presentation with it
tomorrow morning,
I could explain everything
in good conscience.
What do you want to do first, Steve?
in good conscience what do you want to do first
Steve
Steve Buscemi mystery tour
or Patty Schwartz party time
what grace he did
to be able to say
hey
those are good options
hey guy
what do you want to
kick off with today
do you want to start
with the Steve Buscemi
mystery tour
or would you rather
rather get into it
first off with
the Paddy Schwartz party time
that is so
what an awesome option
if you wake up in the morning
and someone walks into your bedroom
and they go
good morning
how would you like to start your day
the Steve Buscemi mystery tour
or the Paddy Schwartz party time experience
I reckon that would be
even better than that
because you'd be
in a hotel
and it's like when you scored some sweet deal on a holiday website.
You and your mate are there.
You've got separate rooms because you've got some great deal.
And he kicks the door into your room and bursts in.
He's like, hey man, what do you want to start the day with?
Steve Buscemi mystery tour?
Or do you want to hit Paddy Schwartz party time?
You're just like, oh, fuck yeah.
Let's fucking do it.
Let's get into it.
And then whatever you choose, Steve Buscemi.
It's rad.
And if you say Steve Buscemi, Mr. Buscemi, Steve Buscemi walks through the door and says, well, come on, let's go.
Let's do it.
Overdue's Patty Schwartz party time.
Patty Schwartz shows up in a helicopter next to the hotel, throws a rock through your window, jumps through, scoops you up in his arms,
jumps back into the helicopter and flies you to a penthouse party in Las Vegas, Nevada.
It's also a pretty cool option.
That'll do, pig.
Okay.
So I'm saying that.
Steve Buscemi mystery to him is us trying to figure out
what one of the characters in the film has had done to him in the first film,
which despite the fact that we've now seen Grown Ups 2 32 times,
we haven't seen Grown Ups 1 ever, either of us.
So something happened to Steve Buscemi's character in the first film
and we're trying to fill in the blanks.
Now, here are our clues.
It put him in a cast that strung his arms up in the touchdown formation for like a year and a half.
And also he had, what was it, 40% feeling in his body?
Yeah, 40% feeling in his body.
So Guy and I tried to put our medical hats on
and try and deduce what could possibly have caused that kind of an injury.
And what did you posit?
What were the cliff notes last time? Chris Rock tackled him directly from behind
and caused quite significant nerve damage
when he dislocated a vertebra.
Yeah, it's not bad.
It would be pretty aggressive for Chris Rock to do that.
But I mean, medically, I think it sort of checks out
it's all there
so that was last week
do I get to do a guess now?
yeah
I've got a
theory
I'm just compiling this now in my mind
but I'm going to use some of my reference points
here on the document if you don't mind
so what happened is,
because in this film, Grown Ups 2,
four of the characters,
the four main characters,
they all have to jump off Suicide 35 at some point.
They're made to by the frat boys.
You know this.
You're familiar with this.
So there's a 35-foot drop
and they all jump off it naked.
And for guys who claim to have been jumping off this rock quite a lot,
they have all got truly appalling jumping technique.
Yeah, terrible diving form.
All of them are just really off the rails.
Chris Rock, he goes down, he sort of takes a front haunt,
like he almost belly flops, but he puts his limbs up in front of him
to stop himself from doing that.
If you're doing that on a 35 foot drop dropped an infant and the infant didn't turn
in any way shape or form before they hit the water if you need to have a 30 or a dog one of those
but he certainly wasn't onto it and uh and then who's who jumps next adam sandler adam sandler
goes with a wide legged approach which is insane it's a 35 foot drop he'll be lucky not to shatter a couple of shin
bones with that sort of fucking laissez-faire attitude to those drops you will literally tear
yourself from your arsehole son david david spade proceeds to show reckless disregard for his
tailbone as he lunges from the rock hurtling towards the water at a rate of knots before landing squarely on his...
Is this your coccyx?
I think it is.
I'm pretty sure it is.
And then Kevin James,
still wearing his shoes
for who knows what reason,
towel around his neck,
yells out,
Mama.
He also goes for an open-legged approach
and lands on top of David's spade,
which would break his neck
and possibly damage Kevin Jones' pelvis.
Anyway, so while these are all reckless jumps,
they all seem to get away with it just fine,
which is a miracle if you ask me.
And I think that in the first movie,
as evidenced by the technique in the second movie,
Steve Buscemi's character, Wiley,
probably had to jump off something high.
And through whatever stupid fucking technique he used
because they're all morons, he
fucking threw his body out
in that specific way.
Maybe Chris Rock gave him a
fright, he hid behind a bush and he went
BOO! And then he went AHH!
And that's the
injury he got and he's always begrudged Chris Rock
for that
um
and that is
the Steve
Steve Buscemi
mystery tour
I don't know how to fit
all those syllables
into that tune
what's the next thing
yeah
look at you coming around
look at you coming around
to the notepad
it's because I drifted
I'll admit
when you were talking
just before
and then I was like we said some really interesting shit while the movie was playing.
Yeah.
And you would have captured some of them, which is why this just looks mental to me.
That's right.
Do you want to do a Paddy Schwartz party time quickly?
Yeah.
Yeah.
So it goes...
Paddy Schwartz party time. Paddy Schwartz
party time
Paddy Schwartz
party time
party time
so you can host this one
because you told me
about this picture
you caught me onto it
so it's
I think someone
actually on the
Facebook group
page
whatever it is
I think
they put me onto this
I think
or someone tweeted me maybe
so it's a picture
of Annie
and the photo
looks to be
20 years old
yeah
yeah about 20 years old
no I'd say
seeing his pedis
no he's turning 21
so it would probably be like
he probably looks like
maybe
5
which would make it what what, like 15?
15?
15 years old.
Let's have a 15-year-old photo of Arnold Schwarzenegger at a urinal in a bar with his two sons.
Hmm.
I feel like we've paid a lot of attention on how old the...
Anyhow.
It could, in fairness to Arnie, this could be about, it could just be some sort of other
restroom.
Like it could be a gym, a public swimming pool.
Like a YMCA.
It could be a urinal in a mall.
It could be at a fair or in a community hall.
Probably not a church.
Churches would look like that if it was like a church school, I reckon.
Yeah, yeah, a school.
Could be the kid's school.
Arnie is looking down, seemingly, at his son's...
What, do you say genitals?
He says penis, mate.
That.
Yeah.
Don't be afraid to say the word penis.
A lot of us have them, Tim.
Penis.
Penis.
Yeah, I don't know where I was going with that.
Anyway, so he's posted this photo.
Yeah.
Arnie's posted this photo.
Arnie, sorry, posted this photo.
And what he said to his son was,
Happy birthday to a great son who has grown into a great man,
Patrick Schwarzenegger. I'm so proud of you and
love you, hashtag
TPT, it stands for
throwback Thursday, oh
throwback Thursday, yeah
and that's a very earnest
and heartfelt message, it's a lovely
message from Arnie, Arnie's a real
nice guy, and
accordingly I looked up Patrick Schwarzenegger Patrick Schwarzenegger's Twitter lovely message from Arnie. Arnie's a real nice guy. And, and accordingly,
I looked up Patrick Schwarzenegger,
Patrick Schwarzenegger's Twitter feed.
And Paddy,
he looks like a cool guy.
He looks like he's got a great life.
He's like,
he seems awesome.
And so happy birthday,
Paddy.
Happy birthday,
Paddy.
Like he's like,
all these cool photos of him with his friends.
Just doing awesome stuff.
I'm pretty sure he lives in LA.
He must live in LA.
Of course he does. and it looks kick-ass do you want to be petty schwartz i want to be petty schwartz but i'd hang out with him for a weekend for sure he got all these dope parties
they're driving these cars around he's doing all these shoot these modeling shoots for tom ford
shit this kid's 20 just turned 21 jesus. Jesus. He's just like, boom!
And so like, whenever he shows up
I guess whenever he shows up at his friend's house
everyone's just hanging out, usually on a Saturday night
like, oh man, this party's kind of
okay, but it's missing something.
Well, and then Paddy Schwartz
comes out. Yeah, and then Paddy Schwartz comes and bursts into
the room and he goes, he waits
for them to say this
so he's sort of just hanging out. I know where this is going.'s sort of just hanging out. I know where this is going.
He's kind of hanging out.
I know where this is going.
Outside the party waiting for his entrance point.
And then?
And then whatever the friends say.
Oh, man.
I don't know.
I can really, I can't quite put my finger on it,
but this party's missing something.
He comes in and he goes,
It's Spanish Farts Party Time.
Hey, Spanish Farts Party Time. It's Party Time withartz, party time. Hey, Paddy Schwartz, party time.
It's party time with Paddy Schwartz.
Party time.
Yeah.
I'm 21.
Let's drink tequila in Las Vegas.
I'm Paddy Schwartz.
It's party time.
Yeah.
Shit, yeah, man.
Didn't see that coming neither did I man
oh man
um
in some view
okay so I'm gonna start
reading the small print
on your notebook now
the mother of Braden Higgins
doesn't tell David Spade
he has a child
for 17 years
holds on to the information until
the Braden is on a train
from Florida then calls
David to tell him
I understand that
the real point behind that underpinning
that thought was that David Spade
following the logic of this movie
would have to have been told at some point
that his son's coming to visit and he
goes yep awesome and just hung up the phone and didn't ask for any more details would have to have been told at some point that his son's coming to visit and he goes, yep, awesome
and just hung up the phone and didn't ask for any more
details. The phone call must have been
like
hey David, you've got a son
it's going to be at the train station in a week
and he's like, okay, awesome
boom, hangs up the phone
The reason why this has to be true
is because the way that the movie
has presented the evidence of what David Spade knows, there's no room for confusion here.
This is the only possible way that that phone call happened.
Because he knows that he's got a son, but absolutely nothing else.
But he doesn't have a single other team.
He's finding the information out as the audience are also finding the information out.
He's going,
what,
who,
who are you?
Hiccups McGee?
And he's like,
what?
Oh,
I don't know about
with Hiccups McGee?
So,
so Higgins
had to like
get this phone call
out of the blue,
ringing on his wall
in his house,
picks it up.
Hey,
Brent Higgins?
Yeah.
Oh, you've got a son.
Okay, that's cool.
Walks out of the room.
Just leaves.
That's right.
So he shows up.
It's just insane.
It's insane.
It's so reckless from David Spade.
Who would deal with that situation like that?
Who is dealing with that situation like that? Who is dealing with that situation like that?
Yeah, well.
You know, bud?
Yeah, I am curious about that.
So it's ludicrous.
And so Brayden, who's just the pawn in this weird game
these two former lovers are playing,
is told, you're going on a train from Florida to Connecticut or wherever.
Why's that?
You're meeting your dad. Okay. Me go. Yeah. told you're going on a train from florida to connecticut or wherever why is that you mean okay me go yeah me go no go stay you have to go okay me go summertime
and so he just gets on a train what you were like what you were talking about before, man. No one else on earth would understand what you were just fucking saying.
Yeah, absolutely.
Throwing random words around.
What you're saying right now resembles the Enigma code.
And I'm like that guy who cracked it.
We're a team.
We're a team.
Cheers.
We just bump microphones.
What else have we got?
I told you I'd do a real good...
Clint Eastwood impression.
You sure did.
While Tim was doing all the tech stuff before the podcast,
I was just watching a clip of Dirty Harry,
the Do You Feel lucky punk speech.
So I've always wanted to be,
I started wanting to say it to people,
but I don't know the quote.
So I had to watch the clip.
I want to paint you a picture folks.
As guys telling you that preparing to do this,
this performance for you,
he's sipping,
just sipping his ice water.
And at the moment he's wearing like a long sleeve skivvy.
And he could not look like
a bigger fuckwit
a C grade actor
preparing
for some role that he doesn't really
need but he kind of wants
let me
let me first say this
okay
my story just a little scratchy so in the lower register of Clint Eastwood's range So I may first say this. Okay.
My theory just a little scratchy.
So in the lower register of Clint Eastwood's rage,
please bear that in mind. I may not be able to hit the note this evening,
but rest assured.
This is going to be completely underwhelming.
I can barely remember watching the clip earlier.
But I'm just going to do a really hammy Clint Eastwood, okay?
Cool, man.
Uh-huh.
I know what you're thinking.
Did he fire six shots or only five?
Well, to tell you the truth and all this excitement,
I kind of lost track myself.
But the thing is, this is a.44 Magnum,
the most powerful handgun in the world.
It'll blow your head clean off.
You can ask yourself one question.
Do I feel lucky?
Well, do you, punk?
Got a little bit Al Pacino at the end there, I thought.
It was not a bad effort at all, bro.
Thank you.
I'm proud of you.
Thank you.
It was real good.
There were bits I lost a little bit, but there were moments when I was hitting him.
You know, that's pretty much time.
I think.
Seriously? It's been 20... Yeah. Yeah. you know that's pretty much time I think seriously
it's been 20
yeah
yeah
it's been 27 minutes
about that
that's crazy
I think a little less
or should we ram in our shining lights
oh god
get out of here
the document has dominated this fucking podcast
I'm sorry for that
unless you've liked it
oh god
I think it's been
pretty good fun
okay
shining light
shining light
you had a very funny one
here's mine
so
let me set the scene
for you all
and I'm just saying
my son
is at a school's
ballet recital
in the big town
school hall
and it looks
like it can
fit 1500
people and
it's pretty
packed out
the parents
were there
and the
kids are about
to perform
and against
the back
wall are
the cops
and Higgins
and
all of
Adam's
friends all of Adam's friends.
All of the buddies.
If you look behind Peter Dante's
head who is the
co-police person
next to Shaxs. Officer Dante.
Yeah. If you look
above his head there's a
photo of like six
kids and a woman
figure who you must assume is like a mum or a teacher
what's the mise-en-scene of the photo it's arranged kind of like almost a poster for a musical
they're all in a v formation coming towards the camera so do you do it might not exist
do you think that the poster was like a poster for a school
performance maybe or something like it i've got to rush through this okay
so my shining because there's something really important i need to
get to okay you cannot let me forget this well you've got to go for it oh my god this will
change lives but you have to give your shining light real quick
so I'll finish mine.
So that photo,
I reckon,
is the family
of like an executive producer
or something
in the film.
That's my theory.
That really took me.
That was my shining light.
Go.
Okay, mine was
Adam Sandler's line
when he's like
playing defender
against his son kicking.
He goes,
I'm a crazy fun bagger. Give me that football. And I'm running towards his son kicking he goes i'm a crazy back give me that football
and i'm running towards the sun it's just it's probably just a funny little ad-lib i think it's
genuinely a funny moment from sandler in the movie uh full credit to the guy i think he really nailed
that one and um that was my shining light now do your important thing so do you remember a certain
conversation that we had while the movie was on about people getting vaporized if they're exposed to moonlight
outside of the ice cream parlor or a house?
Yes, I remember that very well.
It's, I mean, there's quite a big concept to introduce
on the back end of the podcast, but we're just going to go over time.
We're just going to riff this one through.
Oh, we've got to wrap up now.
No, we've got to just get it out there.
I guess I can't just throw this.
While the momentum's there.
That made up that sentence and not explain it a bit.
We're sorry for going over time.
If you have to pause this and go and do something else
and come back and take the last six minutes later, that's okay.
If you usually listen to it for a set amount of time
and then you have to start doing the task,
like if it's exactly the amount of time it takes for your bus
or your bike ride to work or whatever.
The tone of the movie changes
when they're at the ice cream parlor at night.
And I think that it's one of those movies
where it becomes a completely different genre,
but they've just done it so well
that no one's kind of picked up on it.
Okay, you're going to need to explain this further.
So, Pumpty's date with Charlotte.
Yeah, at the ice cream parlor. At the ice cream parlor. Things are going great. Yeah, they're going to need to explain this further. So, Puppy's date with Charlotte. Yeah, at the ice cream parlor.
At the ice cream parlor.
Things are going great.
Yeah, they're going pretty well until a frog turns up.
Yeah, a freaky looking little frog.
It's so, for people who haven't seen the movie,
it's so hard to tell what is coming up
because we're a bit tired, if you know what I mean.
Or if it's actually in the movie. Like, if we're making it up or not. The I mean or if it's actually in the movie
like if we're making it up or not
the frog
yeah
the frog's in the movie
I know
but like
well there's
the stuff that we're saying
is as ridiculous
as the movie is
in a way
like it's hard to discern
yeah
well if you start looking
for a line between
what's more ridiculous
between this podcast
and the fact someone
made this movie
things get pretty freaking crazy.
Oh, that is a grey, blurry line.
Oh, wow.
You either die as a hero
or live long enough to see yourself become the villain, eh?
That's right.
That's a Batman reference.
Are we going to do this vaporising thing?
Let's do it.
So the tone of the movie changed.
So they're at the ice cream parlor.
And it's also where, what's the hot girl's name at school?
Nancy Arbuckle turns up to get some ice creams off Greg Vader.
And anyway, the tone really changed for me.
Things started getting real dark, real bleak.
Yeah.
And it kind of started morphing into like a terror sci-fi kind of thing.
So then I started thinking about it.
And I arrived somehow at the conclusion that everyone,
and just in this town where Granite was to set in Connecticut,
if you're out after sunset and you're not in
like a property like by a house or at the ice cream parlor only if you're anywhere else that
aren't those two locations you get vaporized by just by the moonlight it's fair the moonlight
thing came later as i tried to kind of retrofit something on top of it okay yeah the
original idea was that they just the atmosphere just yeah destroys them so people all over just
people in public spaces will just be vaporized anyway because so you so you proposed this to me
right yeah and i was like that is insane this doesn't make any sense whatsoever. You did. You said that out loud many times.
Like several times to you, I said, you've lost it.
And then we arrived at the party scene.
And Summer Hyatt was like telling Adam Sandler she was pregnant.
And then the guests arrived.
And she was like, our guests are here.
And you, in like full earnest, with doe eyes, were like,
I don't see how they got there.
I was like, I don't know how that fucking happened
Do you remember that?
Was it all your exact words?
I think I said
I think I said, well how the fuck did that happen?
That would have been vaporised by the moonlight
That's right, and when you said that
in full earnest, I was like, oh holy shit
he believes in this thing.
And that is just amazing to me.
And so then from there forth,
I completely understood what you were going for
and watched the movie with exactly the same perspective.
And it is awesome.
We're going to wrap up the podcast
and I feel like we're on such thin ice
doing this one after doing episode 29.
Pawn salad.
It's a famous ep.
Yeah.
The other thing is...
He's referred back to the document, folks,
just for those who can't see.
I was going to say...
I had an idea for episode 33.
I know where this is going.
It's called the, I don't really know where this came from.
I don't think it's a very good idea, especially to say it out loud.
And if this goes to see the light of day.
No, anyway, it's called the bubble bath special.
If we watch a movie in a bubble bath.
But on stage.
Oh, yeah.
No, that was a different idea.
That was if we wanted to do sort of a charity fundraiser,
we'd do it on stage.
But you said bubble bath the other way, though, at the time.
Yeah.
It sounds insane now.
I don't know about it.
I said we're in the podcast on a bum note,
but I can't really throw my full conviction behind that idea.
These are the ramblings of someone who is losing their grip.
Oh man, I feel like you've just Blairar witch the last bit of the vodka we've just a guy's gone
absolutely inside and fully snapped but we don't know whether it's a really clever construction
or if we're being incredibly voyeuristic by watching the footage um like you you're gone mate you're out of here nah I gotta say
you know
at the end of the day
you gotta look at the viewing
I gotta say
that's probably one of the
more enjoyable viewings
I've had recently
I really enjoyed watching
the movie with you Tim
I thought we had a good laugh
we came up with some
pretty interesting ideas
sort of that's how I feel about the project at this point you know what I'm saying I think it had a good laugh. We came up with some pretty interesting ideas.
That's how I feel about the project at this point.
You know what I'm saying?
I think it was a good night's work for us.
Yeah.
Okay.
Cool.
I like that.
All right.
We've arrived at the time by quite a lot.
So bye.
See you later.
