Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome to the friendzone, in the friendzone, you're always home, in the friendzone, you're not alone, anytime, with Tim and Guy. It's an interesting thing, isn't it Guy, Because we sort of, we get dangerously close to, in some ways I feel almost commodifying our friendship. Do you know what I mean by that? I know exactly what you mean by that, Tim. So I'm just, I'm not even polishing off a curry. I'm mid-curry. You're starting tucking into one. Hey, mate.
Starting point is 00:00:41 Yeah. We're curry pals. Look at that. I love that. Is that coming up on the webcam yeah i got you dude i put mine down though i didn't want to eat it on the podcast you see i literally have to eat this curry you do to fuel the conversation but um i know what you mean i had dinner it's quite late at night no i've not it's just like you, you know how it gets sometimes. You've got to do things.
Starting point is 00:01:06 Guy, I do. And you sort of, you know, you're doing the things, but you're prioritizing the things first, and then you finish your things for the day. And to be fair, we're still doing something right now, but you finish your things, and then you're like, oh, man, do you know why this has been quite hard? It's because I didn't feed me.
Starting point is 00:01:24 Yeah. Because for some horrible fucked up reason i'm in charge of that do you want to know what it is do you want to know what it is guy it's because you are putting yourself last and it is simultaneously a beautiful thing and uh bad it goes both ways it's sort of like you know it's like if i think of my cell phone sometimes i'll look at my cell phone and i'll be like oh okay you need to eat which in the world of the cell phone is be plugged into your charger and i'm like a cell phone that is being used but everyone else is like wow wow, someone else will have a charge, right?
Starting point is 00:02:07 And it turns out the cell phone needs to charge itself. Yeah, I guess that's true. Not a perfect analogy, but Tim, I've only had a quarter of this curry. Yes, it did. You're going to be really cracking by the end of it. And you can tell me to X-Nayay on any of this info guy but i think this might be useful and we i famously never cut anything out from this podcast but i can cut this if you want you needn't there was some confusion on uh the subreddit on the twilight
Starting point is 00:02:36 subreddit um when you mentioned uh olive a couple of episodes ago or a few years ago or something. So I think it could be useful to make, should we just set out where we're at in life? Sure, yeah, man. That sounds great. So I'll go first. Yeah, please. I live in a flat with my wife and my dog and three flatmates. And that's me. dog and uh three flatmates and um you you've just have you just um some flatmate a flatmate has left in the not yet but in the process of leaving we're getting Seamus did I tell you that oh
Starting point is 00:03:18 that's great yeah you're getting you're getting a great person. Absolutely. It's going to be a real treat. Yeah, it's going to be awesome. So I live in Mount Roskill with Chelsea, who I love dearly, my partner. And 50% of the time we live with Olive, Chelsea's daughter and my stepdaughter, who I love ever so much as my own. And it's a joyous existence. And, yeah, you told me there was some confusion because I was mentioning a name which hadn't been mentioned before, and people thought that perhaps a relationship had capitulated. But, no, everything is joyful and harmonious.
Starting point is 00:04:03 And, you know, a happy house, Tim, is a well-rested house. A bit of kip. A bit of kip and a curry every now and then, as I always say. This is just true of all houses. And we're all doing our best to get the appropriate amount of rest, but some days you have less rest than others. Anyway. It's true.
Starting point is 00:04:23 I'm excited for what lies ahead it's it's going to be chelsea's birthday tomorrow and um i'm very excited by this hopefully have a wonderful time and you yes you you will get to see her guy and i unbeknownst to either of us and i think this has happened before we booked the same flight to go from auckland to wellington to the team do you know what i figured out guy i didn't even know you were going to and I think this has happened before we booked the same flight to go from Auckland to Wellington to the T do you know what I figured out guy I didn't even know you were going to Wellington this weekend
Starting point is 00:04:50 so it's a double treat I don't think we can even drink tomorrow because it's Good Friday and I think alcohol is illegal so my plan to smash a beer with you until 1pm I believe oh is that right I believe I was talking to someone
Starting point is 00:05:05 about the licensing rules and it is my understanding that after 1pm you can have a beer anyway so basically life's good and I haven't spoken I haven't spent time with you professionally or personally for a while Tim and what I have
Starting point is 00:05:21 is a yearning to spend time with you as a friend, which I guess we're ticking both boxes right now. In a way. But I feel like we're due a respective download and a sort of, you know, to check each other's equilibriums
Starting point is 00:05:35 and make sure everything's running smoothly. And it isn't, by the way. Can I say that? A guy sent me a message yesterday saying, how are you? And I think this is the first time I've ever responded with this. I'm pretty sure I replied, very bad. You did.
Starting point is 00:05:52 It made me very worried. It's just one of those times when I'm working on a particular podcast project at the moment. And usually when people say that it's a secret, this one isn't. I can tell you exactly what it is, but it's for Audible. I've been hired in to sort of produce and edit and do a bit of directing, if that's a thing,
Starting point is 00:06:14 and podcasting for Jackie Van Beek. It's a cool job. Yeah, it is cool. For Jackie Van Beek and Madeline Sami, they made a great film called The Breaker Uparas, and now they're making a podcast called The Maker Uppers where they repair relationships and
Starting point is 00:06:29 the amount of work involved considering the time frames of certain hand-ins put me into a little bit of a spin yesterday and where are you with that stuff now? Look, I'm still worried but sometimes you've just got to do the thing and i've
Starting point is 00:06:47 made a little bit of a plan and i've tried to like chunk it out and i don't know it seems vaguely feasible um yeah it just these things happen and they just sort of somehow get done and you look at like you know you're in the fire right now and you look back on it and then you think, wow, you know, no one else apart from me can truly see what that experience was. What I've taught myself to do, and I've brought this up before on the podcast, is to drink a lot of water. Oh, yeah. Because it's like. That's your survival instincts. Well, it's because when you're stressed, you're going to form a habit, some sort of response to that.
Starting point is 00:07:25 And, like, some people crush cigarettes. Some people, like, you know, eat a lot. Stress eating, they call it. What? People call it stress eating. Stress eating. There's all sorts of responses, but you can kind of train yourself one. And it's this thing I started doing when I was doing the Melbourne Comedy Festival
Starting point is 00:07:43 because I get so worked up that I'd be like all right well if i can just take control of my hydration levels start there or take control of this one area and i'll just make sure that i am hydrated at all times and um it's sort of can i ask you this do you ever if you've got a lot to do and you're sort of like shit i should write this all down do you ever write down something that you had to do but you might have already done in the last 10 or 15 minutes and tick it or cross it off just so that you have the satisfaction of looking at it and being like it's not all undone i don't i do that it's a it's a nifty little idea i just there's one you know if there's one that's already been done, I think I'll still write it down. And then when I look at this, it won't be intimidating.
Starting point is 00:08:31 So I think, well, guess who's already crossed one off? Guess who's already crossed one off? Shall we get into anything? Yeah. Something more comfortable? comfortable actually first of all i just want to say right so if you are listening to this in new zealand please i implore you to invest in and then attend our live show as part of the new zealand international comedy festival the best worst host of all time uh Tim and I will finally be putting to bed an argument
Starting point is 00:09:07 that has plagued us for the entirety of the podcast. Who is the better host? There are a series of challenges in a very large-scale show, a room that has an intimidating number of tickets to sell. That is happening in Auckland on... 20th of May. Thursday, the 20th of May at 9pm if you head along to
Starting point is 00:09:27 worstdayofalltime.com you will find the ticket link we're very excited about it and the more tickets people buy the more excited we become and we're also pretty sure that we're going to stream the thing as well which we will need to do
Starting point is 00:09:43 for money because the venue hire alone is quite significant and we're going to stream the thing as well, which we will need to do for money because the venue hire alone is quite significant and we're getting little bits and pieces to the show that'll cost. So it would be wonderful if you could join us in any way that you're able. The streaming bit isn't up yet, like buying tickets for that, but if you're in Auckland or you know anyone in Auckland, send them along to our website. And we've also set it up, the fans will get it it the most but people who might be entry level to the podcast it will also make sense because you're just watching two idiots and oh yeah we're putting on a show for everybody
Starting point is 00:10:14 um and also you know while we're here bloody while we're here mate while we're here we've both got solo shows as well so if you're getting a ticky for that you might as well get a ticky for both he's not you could even do that if you're getting a ticky for that, you might as well get a ticky for both. He's not wrong. You could even do that. If you're in Wellington, you can see Guy and I live. Fucking A. Comedy Festival.
Starting point is 00:10:33 Comedyfestival.co.nz. Tim's show is called Classy Warfare. My show is called Guy Montgomery by Name, Guy Montgomery by Nature. And now we have the horrible underhanded business of promoting ourselves out of the way. Let us promote the very idea of connection and friendship and the person who i would like to start this with
Starting point is 00:10:50 tim this is correspondence from our friend uh brian who is responsible for our fantastic intro song that we credited as the shills he's part of a great band called the shills he's he's written a piece of correspondence with us clarifying the genesis of the song and just you know generally saying hey how are you so i'm gonna read that are you gonna read it or just i think you should just summarize every message we get on this friend's phone you skim it and you're like okay the general vibe is good they want to let us know they've been in hospital and listened to a lot of the podcast. Thank you. It reads, I apologize
Starting point is 00:11:29 ahead of time, for this might be a bit long-ish. I'm having some curry. Please. I played a show. This is sent on March 15th from the United States of America. I played a show in front of actual humans last night in Boston. My band members in the shills are all, well, like me, out of fucking work.
Starting point is 00:11:55 And, well, that part is complicated and so crappy. America's a weird place, boys. Anyway, I've been using the moniker you see here as my Instagram handle since I was in high school. That moniker is Death Hand, by the way. All one word. I met the dudes in 2004 and we are celebrating 17 years this year with a new record. So I had to learn how to loop myself in a three bay loop patch, sample myself in real time, blah, blah, blah. I sent all that stuff to them to ask, is it okay?
Starting point is 00:12:27 They always say, cool, bud. When I put together the most recent rig for the show, my buddy Ryan, who isn't in the shills, and I were fucking around and getting all these great sounds. I said, my band isn't here, but I love these two comedians so much, man. Let's lay down a thing. I have it in my head no joke we spent about four hours on it and i played everything myself the plug for the
Starting point is 00:12:52 shills is the raddest thing ever makes me so happy but it's actually a death hand original brian please continue to plug both in any case thanks for the consistently excellent comedy and i freaking can't wait to see you live when you can come back here. Kudos, gents. And then a bit more, it said, we haven't been able to play in a room together since February of 2020, which is so insane. Might not be able to until maybe this summer.
Starting point is 00:13:18 So having to do these solo shows has been weird and hard. The live solo shows went well. My buddy Ryan and I loaded out and saw that the new pod and i and saw the new pod had landed and it really was the best cap of a finally good weekend hell yeah get it my buds and uh that is from brian from both the shills and death end and um just thank you so much brian for the fantastic new theme for the Friend Zone and also your correspondence and also sharing what is truly the essence of the Friend Zone and friendship is just like this little nugget, this gem of positivity and light in what has undeniably been a brutal period of time.
Starting point is 00:14:02 I'm on at deathhand on Instagram now and it's a great account, can recommend Brian looks like a fucking cool ass dude what's messed up is that you were so pro COVID for so long guy, and it has turned
Starting point is 00:14:19 out to be such a, you were so pro for such a long time I was one of the first to come out against it you famously took an early positive position on this virus which is has really uh been a bad time for everyone would someone who's pro coronavirus have written the perfect anti-coronavirus joke that i will now perform for you on the podcast i'd love to hear it uh people keep calling it the novel coronavirus.
Starting point is 00:14:47 Am I the only damn person who thinks the novelty has all well and truly worn off? There he is. You know what? You're right. It's perfect comedy and someone who delivers that joke couldn't possibly be pro-corona. I'll tell you what doesn't do well
Starting point is 00:15:05 on stage. Oh, dude. Brian... Sorry, I'll let you finish there, but Brian is 33 followers away from 1,000 followers. I just followed him. Now he's 32. Alright, everyone. Let's get him 31 of them and then all bail out.
Starting point is 00:15:30 Sorry, you were saying something something i was saying that joke eats shit on stage go ahead tim uh from joel dear timothy and guymathy now this is from the 28th of november 2020 i went back to see if there were any unread emails, and here's one. That was a good time. When you mentioned the upcoming season three of Overlooked and Undercooked, it reminded me of the time I drove six hours to Madison. What's WI, Wisconsin? Yeah. To see Rob Schneider himself on what must have been the tour
Starting point is 00:16:00 that became Asian Mama Mexican Kids. Not sure why he called it that. The only reference point I had for Rob was from your show. So it was an amazingly odd experience. I had no idea why everyone around me kept yelling, You can't do it!
Starting point is 00:16:15 Oh my God. But the strangest thing was, in the midst of all his accents and extremely problematic jokes about reverse racism, he had these little asides like, That's fucked up, or she doesn't really sound like that.
Starting point is 00:16:27 That seemed kind of genuine and made me wonder if he actually gets it. I really wonder if Rob knows full well why his content is problematic, but he sticks with it either because he has an audience for it or he's too lazy to update his shtick. Or maybe I'm wrong
Starting point is 00:16:42 and he thinks it's funny because it's fucked up i'm curious what you two think i think it's way more dastardly if he does get it and is just knowingly cashing in say my name joel coon ps at some stage in the uh it's sorry at some point in like season three of twio at you all said you wanted to go to indianapolis and then promptly forgot about it i'll admit india is the white t-shirt of large american cities so i can't in good conscience suggest you should tour here but i sure would like to be tickled if you did so the thing we tickle people okay i'll give joel a tickle
Starting point is 00:17:22 yeah yeah i think i think um this is more conceptual tickling than the physical manifestation. But I'm not going to lie to you, Joel. Presently, having had international travel removed, it certainly hasn't elevated Indianapolis' sort of appeal to me. Without the matter at hand, though, do you think Rob knows what hell he hath wrought? It's a really fascinating question, and it's a tough one to answer.
Starting point is 00:17:56 I think I could, in a different mood on a different day, give a variety of answers. But I don't think he knows. I think he's the guy don't think he knows. I think he's like, he's the guy, the world's passed him by. And he's, instead of sort of quietly tolerating it, he's just dug his heels in even harder and been like, this is ridiculous. I can't do any of the things that I've always done
Starting point is 00:18:19 and that I've always thought are funny and that built a career for myself. And then I don't think he knows, really. That's sad. I think he's a damned fool. What have I got here? Something called a message. What's he got there?
Starting point is 00:18:44 I've got a message and it reads as such. Greetings. Dim Sim Tim and Fly By Guy. The Frosty Fellas getting frostier by the minute. And then they've used like
Starting point is 00:18:58 the R as in like restricted. As in like that's their registered trademark. Yeah, that's their IP. Gotcha. So I've read it out and I'm going to credit it accordingly. But in our own time, Tim,
Starting point is 00:19:13 we can't say that we're getting frosty by the minute or we'll be, you know, drowning. At least the ownership resides with us, the frosty fellas, who probably should own the slogan. No, they certainly should. Anyway, it continues. I've been thinking about the next season of Twio at. I'm suggesting for the good of you both,
Starting point is 00:19:34 a complete about face. Introducing the best idea of all time. Where? Guy and Tim each pick a skill hobby for the other to practice 146 minutes a week for a year yes, this is the run time of Sex and the City 2 how observant of you weekly recaps, perhaps even a shining light
Starting point is 00:19:54 of whatever you've learned that week if you do feel so inclined all jokes aside, I think you two are two of the funniest blokes alive and as a person who's only barely holding it together get the jokes, put them over there we're over here the jokes are put them over there. We're over here. The jokes are over there to the side. As a person who's only barely holding it together,
Starting point is 00:20:11 I feel qualified to be the one to help you two in becoming even better versions of yourself. Much love from here in Western Sydney. Say my name. Say my goddamn name even. James. Then it says, P.S. I would love to pay the boys,
Starting point is 00:20:23 but I'm currently saving to go to university in Melbourne next year, and that shit ain't cheap. When I'm closer to being financially stable, you can bet your ass that I'll float some cash your way. James, this is a thoughtful message. First of all, dude, keep saving. Don't worry about us, all right? You've got your fucking life to live.
Starting point is 00:20:41 And it's really sweet that you're looking out for more sort of fruitful formats that might um you know it'll be can you imagine tim you and i doing something for ourselves or each other for an entire year can you imagine what that might do for us the crazy thing is is that it's it's all just sitting there waiting for you, isn't it? Because we made the time to watch Sex and the City 2 every single week. So that time exists. And there could be so much benefit to it. What do you think you would pursue, Guy, if you were given this opportunity?
Starting point is 00:21:19 I would just love... I'm so deeply impractical. And I'm of no use in such a wide and devastating variety of ways. Like just handy, hanging a picture, you know, putting in a shelf, all these small jobs that make up. Carpentry. Yeah. small jobs to make up carpentry yeah i would love to like just spend that time just concentrating on the very fundamentals just the basics so that i would not be intimidated when i saw a power drill or like i wouldn't look at a flat pack of shelves and think oh i'm out of my depth here
Starting point is 00:21:57 i i think so much of that is diving in oh 100 i've got um yeah i got a friend joe holy shit man he's taken on so many hobbies and now he makes these beautiful backgammon boards like from scratch he sources the wood he like he sands it he smooths it he like cuts it he finds the fat everything and he makes these beautiful glazed pot he like make he's a potter now he makes all these mugs he's like taught himself to play guitar he's taught himself how to surf all in the same time i've watched sex in the city 2 like 60 times he's learned like four incredible skills guy you were doing comedy though and the thing about something like comedy is it's tricky because it's both a work and a hobby yeah yeah so it sort of soaks up it's not a yeah all that time
Starting point is 00:22:55 it's a slightly complicated relationship i mean but you asked me what i do i think that is something that i would and you know you're right so much of it is just doing it and outside of the podcast i've had opportunities to do it and i've not embraced them but that is something that I would, and you know, you're right. So much of it is just doing it. And outside of the podcast, I've had opportunities to do it and I've not embraced them. But that is something when I think about it, I sit down, I look at it and I think it feels so good. I say that not to like guilt trip you or something about an opportunity missed. I say that as a positive reminder of opportunity. i totally agree i mean i i don't think of it as an attack but you know it's like people say i wish um i wish i could like i say to joe oh god i wish i could do that and i think do you guy because if you truly wished you could do that you would go
Starting point is 00:23:43 to the trouble of learning how to do that but it's it's also it's so intimidating if you go like i need to learn how to whatever do a whole thing i i'm a it's dabbling is what it's all about dabbling should actually be the word of hobby you're a dabbler yeah i love to dabble you and you like you know you've upskilled in so many ways like it's actually it's fundamental to kind of part of the symbiosis of our working relationship or our approach is like there's something that needs to be done i think well i'm very happy to find someone who is specifically good at this thing and they can realize this and then you're like i can figure that out. I can do that. And then a lot of the time I can't.
Starting point is 00:24:29 But there's value to both approaches, I think. And it's probably part of the balance we have is like, you know, the truth lies somewhere in the middle. Because sometimes you can do it and sometimes you can't. I think maybe both of us, because I've actually harbored this dream for a while, we should both join a night class for carpentry. It's a chance for us to hang out, learn some new skills.
Starting point is 00:24:51 I think we're going to be a tremendous use of time. I think it's a great, Tim, I think it's a great idea. And you know what? Honestly, we've got to give partial credit to James sending in this message, saving to go to university in Melbourne and motivating the lads to better themselves and deepen their friendship. So thank you, James. I can realize my dream of taking after my namesake, Tim Allen, a man famously good at DIY. That's right.
Starting point is 00:25:21 Pretty good. The great Tim Allen. Arthur writes, hello, Tim and Guy. That's right Pretty good The great Tim Allen Arthur Wright Hello Tim and Guy Here are two ideas This is from December of 2020 It was a great time Early December too
Starting point is 00:25:32 God it was a good time Two ideas that I hope will make your podcast A little bit less gruelling Number one You always seem happier When you have segments To propel you through the episodes Especially when you make up a theme song
Starting point is 00:25:44 To sing together A la Patty Schwartz Party Time when you make up a theme song to sing together, a la Patty Schwartz Party Time. Maybe you could do a segment about all the wild ways they are miming sex acts in Emmanuel. Number two, I love Till Death Do Us Blart. This year it sounded like all of you were having a tough time wrangling with the commitment. Just going to hit pause on that.
Starting point is 00:26:01 The commitment of watching a movie once a year. It's not much of a commitment, is it, really? I think you probably heard five people at the end of a pretty long year. That's true. And yet you probably heard all of them, which is the trap we fall into, realizing that it would be nice to just talk to each other, but having to do it through the prism of Paul Blart and World Cup too. Arthur continues.
Starting point is 00:26:29 Oh, by the way, Guy, did you hear that Montaigne's done a track for Mbim Bam? Yeah. Did you listen to it? No, not yet. Oh, dude, it's so fucking nice. That's so good. It's really, really good. God, she's good. nice. That's so good. It's really, really good. God, she's good.
Starting point is 00:26:46 Okay. Arthur continues, I wonder if it might help to have a higher purpose for the self-inflicted torture. Since the episodes come out around American Thanksgiving, I think supporting indigenous-led organizations would be a great move. You could split the donations between one in NZ
Starting point is 00:27:01 and one in the US, perhaps? Maybe you could set a fundraising goal and release the episode once we reach it. I'm sure that there are listeners who would be happy to organise this, myself included. Here are two US-based initiatives I know of. Seeding Sovereignty, an indigenous-led collective, looks to radicalise and disrupt colonised spaces
Starting point is 00:27:19 through land, body and food sovereignty work, community building and cultural preservation. The website for that is seed uh seedings oh sorry seedingsovereignty.org as you would expect and then there is a pueblo action alliance is a community-driven organization that promotes cultural sustainability and community defense by addressing environmental and social impacts and indigenous communities. That one is Pueblo action, alliance.org slash CCI love Arthur. Arthur man, Arthur,
Starting point is 00:27:54 Arthur is rocking those very cool. They, them pronouns. Arthur's out there fucking putting forward some pretty powerful ideas. I really like this And the fear that I have Is that this is such a great idea And one that I absolutely want to do
Starting point is 00:28:11 And I absolutely think I will forget about it So what about this? How do I save an email Like to my Google calendar To come up around Thanksgiving time This coming year I've got no idea I've got no idea. Is that a thing?
Starting point is 00:28:25 I've got no idea. I'm going to do that. That's what I'm going to do, Arthur. I'm going to set it in for... When is Thanksgiving? November, like, mid? You put it in for, say, November... Put it in for the first.
Starting point is 00:28:38 Yeah, yeah. It's a fantastic idea. Yeah. Okay, great. Here we go Really good That's good, we can move on to the next piece of correspondence And thank you very much, Arthur, for that great idea
Starting point is 00:28:53 Truly Oh, I got a big fucking juicy one right here Oh boy It sounds like a big one It's a big boy Here we go, you ready? Hold on. Yeah, I'm ready.
Starting point is 00:29:11 Hello, insert Tim and Guy based puns here. Hold on. Hold on a moment. You've got to try. You know what I mean? Not necessarily. We don't know what this person had going on. I'll try one one I'll do one
Starting point is 00:29:27 Hi Hi Tom and Brian I got Brian? Yeah I couldn't think of any other Oh Graham I guess? What's a G male name that isn't Guy? Grant Greg Greg is the name I think of Any other? Oh, Graham, I guess. What's a G male name that isn't Guy? Grant. Greg.
Starting point is 00:29:46 Greg is the name I think of whenever I have to make up a name for a man. That man becomes Greg. Dear Tom and Greg. I know you're both busy movie executives, and rumor has it you're currently making about 50 Paul Blart spin-offs. Yes. So I won't keep you busy for too long. That is an all-timer, that email. However, I'd like to pitch my movie idea to you.
Starting point is 00:30:11 Sex and the City 3. Fuck. Here we go. It takes place during Sex and the City 2. Babushka Sex and the City. While the gals are away in Abu Dhabi Mr. Big gets together with Steve, Harry And all the other main role males from Sex and the City
Starting point is 00:30:32 To do an Ocean's Eleven style heist Hold on What? Role males? All the other main role males Oh gotcha, okay Sick I thought it was like male role.
Starting point is 00:30:46 It was portmanteau or something. From Sixth City to do an Ocean's Eleven style heist, including Coffee Guy, whose role is to keep the Mr. Big informed of their whereabouts, as was guessed during Where's He Going, What's He Up To? and Penelope Cruz. It's at that night out that Mr. Big puts together the heist. Their goal is to steal
Starting point is 00:31:08 three of the world's rarest diamonds. The reason, to get the gals arrested. Plot twist, they've had enough of these four and wish to deal with them once and for all. Samantha is dealt with right off the bat,
Starting point is 00:31:24 so Kim Cattrall doesn't need to be in it as the shake makes a deal with america that involves the extradition of samantha back to abu dhabi to be tried for her crimes the film reveals that aiden hired dick spurt to lure samantha into those hideous displays of public affection and to plant the condoms everyone wants to get rid of these gals the others have the diamonds planted on them and they're eventually arrested remember the ring that mr big gives to carrie after she confesses to kissing aiden also yes i do it's a black diamond similar to carrie bradshaw's soul right you guessed it that's one of the stolen diamonds charlotte and miranda also do something inanely stupid and get
Starting point is 00:32:00 rewarded with diamond rings because fuck it why not not? And they all get sent to prison. The final plot twist? The heist took place in Texas where they seem to hand out capital punishment for the fun of it. Oh, it gets pretty heavy here. The film ends with Samantha being beheaded and the other three girls headed for the electric chair.
Starting point is 00:32:23 Good God. I haven't thought of a clever title for the film. All I can really think of is Sex and the other three girls headed for the electric chair good god i haven't thought of a clever title for the film all i can really think of is sex in the city 3d and have the film in 3d the tagline could be three diamonds three dicks three dimensions which is lame it's good but it's also more effort than mattress pikelet king put it into naming the other two so i'm going with it i hope you enjoyed my pitch i I won't need much money, as I'm going to take a page out of Adam Sandler's playbook and haul the film out to product placement. Feel free to say my name,
Starting point is 00:32:53 Carl O'Callaghan. Hey, Carl, I like this gritty reboot of the series, putting a movie within the movie and decapitating a main character. I like it too. I just want to quickly say, P.S. Oh, the Irish nanny from Sex and City 2, she lied about being a lesbian
Starting point is 00:33:12 and has secretly been getting Harry to wrinkle her crunkle every night. My God. I just love conceptually. Thank you for that, by the way, Carl. I just love conceptually creating you for that by the way Carl, I just love conceptually like creating a sequel to a film that exists inside of the pre-existing time frame of the other film
Starting point is 00:33:32 yeah it's it's mischievous it's satisfying it sounds like something James Cameron would do like he would start making avatars within avatars it'll be like avatar 1.5 Something James Cameron would do. Like he would start making avatars within avatars.
Starting point is 00:33:48 It'll be like avatar 1.5. Everyone's like, what the fuck are you up to, mate? It's a cunning ploy. And I mean, you know, I love, I just, it's satisfying. Now, do you think that an international audience is ready to see the stars of beloved 2000s sitcom, I guess you would call it, Sex and the City killed by the state on screen? No.
Starting point is 00:34:16 Conceptually, I love the idea. In execution, which is probably the wrong word choice, I'm not 100% on the actualization of this film. I think... Sexecution. That's what it's called. Oh, wow. Sex in the City 1.5... No, wait.
Starting point is 00:34:31 It's within Sex and City 2, isn't it? Sex in the City 2.5... Sexecution. Well, anyhow. And it refers to both... See, you watch the trailer and you're like, oh, it's about executing a planned heist but no the execution is committed by the state upon the gals resulting in their death
Starting point is 00:34:52 it's it's great that's really great so that's that's where we're at with that and um good on you carl thank you carl i gotta Tim, we've probably got to go shortly. But do you want to round us out? Well, it's a trick. Oh, you go. I was going to say it's a tricky one because it's got an attached image. And obviously this is an audio podcast, but I will describe it to you. Okay.
Starting point is 00:35:17 Jim says, hey, Tim, I was listening to the latest Death Blight podcast while watching the thing itself, for better or worse, and heard Justin mention this dumb idea. I'm a huge fan of following through fully on bad ideas, so I made these stickers. I wondered if you wanted a stack. I could mail you out some when they're done. If you do, let me know where to send them. If not, totally cool too. Big fan of the worst idea. It's been great to have you throughout this weird, bad year. Take care, Jim. Jim has made a sticker that has the graffiti-style, hyper-simplified, it's the Obey logo, but it's Paul Blart's face there.
Starting point is 00:35:56 Fantastic. It's Andre the Giant in that, right? I think so, yeah. Yeah, and it's got a stern- looking blart with the word obey big old caps under it which you love to say i'd love one yeah me too i've got to get a fucking po box for us finally because a lot of people like what's your address and i'm always like i don't really want to tell you where i live po boxes that's cool i always wanted to have a PO box well you're getting one mister I'm buying us one
Starting point is 00:36:27 fuck I'd love to meet someone at a PO box like a meet I don't think that's the idea behind them dude it's sort of the opposite I know I know anyway you guys this has actually been so
Starting point is 00:36:40 I mean the curry's hitting my bloodstream and I'm literally feeling energy returning to my body. But it's happened in perfect synchronicity with the friend zone, and I feel uplifted, and I feel really good. And I think there's been some wonderful correspondence. If you're a Patreon subscriber, you're going to get the rewards of this increased blood sugar because we're about to record another beautiful episode of Kill Your Near.

Jesus, what was in that curry? I'll have what he's having. It was mostly potatoes and eggplant.
Starting point is 00:37:34 I don't want that anymore. Send it back. Well, it was fantastic. Anyhow, thank you, everyone. Look after yourselves. You know, if you've got the chance, go get a fucking vaccine put in your arm. Bye.
