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.
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.
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.
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?
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
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
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.
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.
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
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
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
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
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.
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,
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
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
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.
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
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.
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
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
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
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
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.
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
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
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.
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?
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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!
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.
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
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
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.
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
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?
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
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,
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,
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
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,
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,
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.
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?
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
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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,
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
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?
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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,
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
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.
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,
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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
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.
That's right.
So, thank you so much, everyone. By by the way all of the correspondence i read this evening was
uh via the twitter twilight pod and the dms so oh shout out you can reach us there it's always
on facebook as well and thank you so much just i'm like i'm sort of suddenly i've gone the
pendulum swung so far i'm so energized I'm like overwhelmed with gratitude for everyone in the world.
Jesus, what was in that curry?
I'll have what he's having.
It was mostly potatoes and eggplant.
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.
Bye.
