Well it's the friend zone, with Tim and Guy, come to the friend zone, and have a good time, yes it's the friend zone, with Tim and Guy, cause making friends is the best idea of all time.
Why aren't we just doing it already?
We are doing it. Hello and welcome to the friend zone on location. We're still in Auckland.
But we're just catching up for a beer. Yeah, we're at a bar.
On location means we've gone to a bar.
Hey, welcome back, everyone.
We've been talking about Steph non-stop the entire time
since the last Friend Zone.
Steph Miller, who met her beloved through the podcast.
Not only through the podcast, Guy Montgomery,
but through your trademarked catchphrase
for a kiss is always a gift yeah you said it uh in synchronicity with someone else at the party
and they uh immediately fell in love incredible what an aphrodisiac it is that is amazing i invite
everyone to go to parties and simply say for a kiss as always and then if no no takers you walk
a few steps screamed at the top of your lungs again
see what happens just keep rolling around the party you'll find your true love they're out there
you just gotta keep going you'll only know a lot of people on the way though hey before we tuck
into this um piping hot friend zone fresh out the oven i'm actually waiting for a pizza it's
really dominating in my head you could tell couldn't you no it's. I just want to mention that Blaze Pizza can, and I don't say this lightly,
suck my dick because someone else is paying the fucking boys.
Yeah.
We haven't really told Blaze Pizza where to go and stuff it for a while,
but if you guys are still listening, which well you should be.
Go fuck yourselves.
That's right.
Big time.
Get out of town.
God damn it, I hate those guys.
And they've had unmeasurable success.
The success cannot be measured.
That's how big it is.
All down to us.
Us and Paddy.
Fucking hell, man.
I tweeted at Paddy today.
Paddy's getting a cut, though.
Yeah.
What'd you say to Paddy today?
Well, he was just saying,
he was saying,
go the Rams,
Los Angeles Rams and NFL team
and they had a
horrid season last year
and they're
I mean it's only
three weeks in
but they're really
playing their pants
off this season
so I tweeted back
I said I'm happy
for you man
I'm sure you
appreciated that
I'm always afraid
to interact with him
for fear that he'll
unfollow me
he'll be like
why am I following this guy
it's a delicate
relationship isn't it
so the people
who are paying
the boys
yeah you go for it you grab that chair the people who are paying the boys that...
Yeah, you go for it.
You grab that chair.
The people who are paying the boys at dollarshaveclub.com
and we couldn't be happier about it.
And you may be aware of them.
You should be aware of them.
They've got fantastic marketing,
which kicked off a few years ago.
Did you see the ad on YouTube?
No.
Blow the fuck up.
It's just this guy.
I think he's the one who started the company.
And it's like a one-shot thing walking through his warehouse
talking about how awesome his razors are.
There's just a lot of shit going on around it.
I'll show you after.
But look, it's a great ad.
They're a great company.
DollarShaveClub.com slash worst idea is the code.
We'll tell you more about them later.
That's just a teaser for the ad.
It's a teaser for the ad.
So excited are we to be in paint.
That is pathetic. Isn't it?
Hey but welcome aboard guys
We're happy to be with you
So this one here I got for you Tim
It's actually a shitter to start off with
Oh no I'm looking forward to it
You don't have to colour it
Go top
No don't even indulge
We don't need to explain
what that is.
So it's just this picture here of a gun
and it says Rat King
and you'll see that this gun is spring loaded
with several rats.
Oh my god. Can you see that?
It looks like it's from a video game
or something.
Oh man, so it's got actual rats loaded
in the chamber. Yeah, and it's from Thomas,
and it says,
Destiny is arming Brady.
So no other commentary.
Oh, Destiny the game,
the video game Destiny.
No, I thought,
well, he used capital D
at the start of the sentence.
Oh, God, confusing.
And he could be talking about
the greater idea of destiny.
Did he have a message attached to that?
No.
No, just that?
Just a vaguely honest message.
Oh, wow.
So thank you for that, Thomas.
What's going on out here?
I'll tell you that.
Hey, well, thank you for the rat gun.
We won't do it because we'll forget,
but we should definitely put that photo on Facebook,
and we definitely won't.
I'll do it.
I'm all over it.
Daniel Thompson.
Oh, God, I hope you want your name out there.
Oh, no, we're back in it.
Has sent us a lovely donation and a lovely message, I presume.
The message says thus.
Oh, the pizza's here.
I have to make you a new one
because I dropped one of the pieces on the floor.
Oh, that's okay.
No worries.
No, don't do that.
It's quite unnecessary.
Are you hungry?
No, no.
I just had lunch.
Honestly, I'm fine.
We're okay.
Thank you.
Are you sure?
No, I want to do something.
You want like potatoes?
I wouldn't say no to potatoes.
I love carbs.
Thank you.
That's very kind.
Just for one piece of pizza.
One slice of pizza fell on the ground,
and I'm getting a whole bunch of potato out of it.
My main man, Tim Batt, breaking his own cardinal rule.
Of what?
Eating on mic.
Oh, yeah.
I forgot.
Okay.
Dang.
Matt's just going to be here tempting me.
A pleasure to watch.
Daniel writes,
Dear Spindly Timbly
Guy and Tim Forks,
I decided for Labor Day weekend
to celebrate me getting a new job.
Brackets, this donation
is my first hour of work.
Oh.
Yeah.
That tugs at the heartstrings.
It's real nice.
I drink some wine
and watch all three
of the movies in order.
You got Guy's number.
Yeah.
My thoughts as I watch the movies.
Grown Ups 2.
This movie is too confusing to be bad.
It seems like a series of unrelated clips with some Kmart and five-hour energy commercials.
Brayden Higgins in The Alcoholic Doctor are my heroes.
Sex and the City 2.
Is it just me?
Or does Carrie look older in her flashback in the beginning?
Also, watching The Gay Wedding is one of the highlights of my life
Liza Minnelli singing Beyonce's Smash It
All the single ladies
Also, the fancy TV Big gets for Carrie
It's the same size as the TV in my motel room
I like Miranda in Charlotte
Miranda just wants to actually experience the country and the people there.
And Charlotte, you know, actually seems to care about her family,
even if she thinks a good souvenir from the UAE is a knockoff Swiss watch.
We are your friends.
I totally thought Squirrel was a big, fat party animal.
I don't know why, but that's just what I thought he looked like.
And, jeez, i love zicole's
line no i'm american he sounds so earnest overall i'd rate grown-ups too the best because i don't
know what was happening most of the time sex in the city and we are your friends were written
well enough that i was fully aware of what horrors were being done to my mind brain. Say my name. Daniel Thomas. P.S. Tim. Not guy.
One of my favourite
knife companies is from New Zealand.
Svord. Why is this not guy?
Because you're not on the knife train.
They make something called a peasant
knife which had
the unsharpened bits sticking out
of the back that you can use for testing
the hardness of minerals. P.P.S.
My shift key broke temporarily in the spirit of the back that you can use for testing the hardness of minerals. PPS.
My shift key broke temporarily in the spirit of the podcast.
I'm not editing this.
Jeez, James Reid has some sweet judo moves.
That was a magnum opus, if I may.
Thank you, Daniel.
It was so good, Daniel.
You did really good. The best possible ending for Tim in that you were happy to have your name.
I'm going to eat some pizza.
You go for a bit.
Yeah, well, I'm just going to have some pizza?
Oh, you should have been at the ready, my friend.
Come on now.
This is bush leg.
No, that was because I was so engrossed.
Don't insult me between mouthfuls.
I will.
Pizza.
This one says,
Hey, Tim and Guy.
Did you know that in episode one of season four
of the Netflix show BoJack Horseman,
now could you imagine what the rest of this message
will be pertaining to?
I've got a theory.
Is it a, what is this, a crossover episode?
Almost exactly.
And I think we addressed that on the previous friend zone.
Just either parallel thinking or a shout out to the Mabim Bam Boys.
Either way, very cool.
And then there's a big postscript
to that first part,
which is,
P.S.
In other news,
I love the worst idea of all time.
Oh, that's great news.
This just in.
He loves it.
Oh wait, was that a man?
Yeah, it is.
Daniel.
And I've been listening
since you guys had just finished season one.
Since I started season one,
after you started season two,
I got my wires crossed at one point.
I listened to a season two episode
where you got drunk on a plane to LA
and talked about sex in the city too.
It was very confusing.
PBS, I chucked you $50 a few months ago
and I blatantly attempted to get a mention
on the Friends over my attempt to buy Friendship
when I'm rewarded.
So this time, please, please say my name.
I'm glad you sound so much more sane
than you did around June.
It's probably for the best you're stopping.
Daniel Haynes, thank you so much for your empathy,
donation, and very funny anecdote about listening to...
God, that's exactly the sort of thing I would like to think would happen,
was just one episode out of the three.
I've got a feeling on the um lineup on how there's
a mistake in there somewhere that's tripped a few few young players up um vince writes
hey to me and guy this is my second time writing in so hi again i guess wish i could contribute
another 20 bucks but i have unfortunately found myself in a precarious financial situation since the first time I wrote in and supported the troops. Anywho, said the eddy owl. That's cute. Since the end of
the podcast looms dark on the horizon I thought I'd let you know that whatever projects you boys
move on to next I truly hope that it's together. So I would like to pitch you a podcast idea and
hope I don't come off as the insufferable arsehole friend who tries to tell you what to do
you haven't yet no but let's dive into the rest of this i'm dying for one of these messages to say
um as the podcast coming to an end which is a shame uh but i would like to say with all of
your future endeavors i will not be following you you will pay attention to none of them
um okay so the idea is it it's called The Sign-Off,
and it's inspired by your amazing sign-off shenanigans,
such as that time your sign-off included a full minute of dead air,
or more recently, when you looked up whether Christoph Waltz is married.
You boys have been doing such a shining light in my ear canals every week
that a world where you only record audio together once a year
seems infinitely dumber
i just want to keep hearing your boys amazing chemistry and multi-syllable kiwi nose
did you enjoy my upward inflection on that and i'm sure that i wouldn't be the only to transplant
to any new show you might produce oh love every moment love every day live every i i fucked it up he's
written that correctly live every moment love every day with friendship and love and here are
two kisses for you boys for a kiss is always a gift say my name your boy vince colomiso uh colosimo
ps you have been the reason that i have started using boy or boys to refer to people at this point my friends have also taken using this affection boys spread the world over the boys now I would
say that we get more pieces than not yeah and often uh that's the that's where the real juicy
sort of you know resonant stuff is hiding everyone Everyone's like, hey, I'm so cool
and casual. And then it's, you know, two o'clock
and everyone's like, in the morning, everyone's leaving and they're like,
hey man, we've got to hang out more.
It was such a good time.
I just got a flashback
to about six parties, right?
Very familiar scene.
And I've been both players in that scenario.
That's a classic. And when you say
that, you could not mean it more.
And in the morning, often regrettable.
I would just like to quickly take this moment to send our well wishes
to a friend of the podcast, Jared Driscoll,
who has laid up in hospital presently.
Oh, shit.
I think it sounds like it's going to be under control,
but all the best, Jared. We wish you
a speedy recovery.
Jared's an amazing
podcast boy. He listens
to us, he listens to the Walkout Boys, he gets in touch
with both parties, and I love him for it.
I will never forgive you for this
treachery, Jared.
Jared, get better soon. We love you.
I'll read it. No, I'll take it.
Hi, Tim.
Hi, Tim.
So a few weeks ago, my brother introduced me to your podcast.
Excuse me?
Pardon?
So a few weeks ago, my brother introduced me to your podcast.
And being a useless cunt with technology, I started with season two.
Just finished episode 41. What was with your outraged pardon i was eating at the time all right it's addressed solely to you yeah yeah they often are oh yeah they're not often i think you understand where
the grievance lies then holy fuck this is a response to listening to episode 41 of season
two holy fuck what the fuck were you two thinking? I'm a lucky man.
And that so far in my 31 years on this planet,
I've never crossed paths with the gals from Sex and the City.
That is, until you fucking suggested I watch it.
Mother of God, is that fucking film long.
I hear you mention that every episode,
but the reality just doesn't sink in
until you try to watch it.
These are the most...
This is a particularly spicy turn of phrase.
To be reading out in a public space.
Uh-oh.
Hey, Guy.
Before you voice this aloud in the public arena,
I want you to remember that you snatched my cell phone off me to read this.
You've dug your own grave,
Montgomery. I did snatch it from you.
You were chewing. Still am.
Always will be.
These are the most cunty
fucking woman on the planet.
It is spicy.
Jesus, didn't they order the jalapeno
on this pizza? My god.
The fact that the actors were willing to portray these horrible human beings
makes me hate them just as much as their characters.
Well, everyone's got to get paid.
The worst part is I find myself laughing as I watch the film,
and not because of the bollocks gags that are forced on this film,
but because all I can think of is that you two sorry fuckers
watched this empty film 52 fucking times.
Who is the salty-languaged pirate of the South Caribbean
peening us?
I did not know what I was wrestling from your control.
Now I've come to understand that you only did this three times,
which I don't blame you.
How you managed to do a third season after Sex and the City,
I don't know.
That would have drained my soul after 52 fucking times.
But I'd love to listen to you boys slowly going insane.
It helps me pass the time at work.
Could I suggest to you a new idea?
One that I don't think will have you jumping off a roof. Oh, I love listening to you boys slowly going insane. It helps me pass the time at work. Could I suggest to you a new idea?
One that I don't think will have you jumping off a roof.
Oh, I'm listening.
Rewatching old cartoon series from the late 80s and early 90s.
Can't tell you how many times I've said to the wife how shit cartoons are today and how my cartoons were so superior.
If you watched a new episode every week to critique it,
it would at least be something different to view,
even if the same shit does kind of happen every time.
You could even predict what happens next after each episode,
see how close you get.
I'm sure you could build
something very funny
on this humble beginnings
of an idea
and ultimately
give me something new
to listen to
once I finish
the three seasons
of The Wizard of All Time.
We have a very interesting
relationship with our podcast,
my friend.
Where was I?
These are the cartoons
I think you could have
the most fun with.
Oh, okay.
There's suggestions.
This is good.
Super Mario Bros.
Super Show.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Sharky and Jaws.
Not heard of Sharky and Jaws.
Have you?
Is that the one with the shark dog?
Sounds like it's certainly got something shark related in it.
Man, that's ringing a bell.
It was a dog.
Who was also a shark?
He wasn't also a shark, but he was like... I guess you just take shit for granted when you're a kid. I haven a dog. Who was also a shark? He wasn't also a shark but he was like
I guess you just take shit
for granted when you're a kid.
I haven't thought about this since.
It was a dog
that was like
a shark breed dog.
Like it was definitely a dog.
It was unmistakably a dog.
There was no
shark DNA in there.
But it looked like a shark.
That was the premise of the show.
My dog looks like a shark.
It was probably more than that.
No, it wasn't like
anyone owned him either.
I think he was kind of his own free agent.
Could he breathe underwater?
Not to my knowledge.
Not to the best of my recollection, Guy Montgomery.
Don't care about the dog then.
I'm saving this last piece for you.
This is your pizza.
Of course, I think I might be a bit older than you two
and also live in England.
So however these shows, with exception to the Turtles,
you are, I don't know.
But also, listen to anything else you two put on.
Don't be shy to get back in touch.
And if you're ever in the UK and fancy visiting the bleakest town known to man, heck of a sell,
I would happily put you up for a few nights and take you for a few beers as well.
Thanks for the sacrifice you made for my entertainment.
Cheers, Ben.
Does he not name, does Ben not name the township, the Shire?
He does not.
P.S. Coffee Guy is the fucking bomb.
He is.
Well, you swear like a sailor, Ben, but...
Yeah, I wish I'd known.
I could have really softened it all
if I put on a very, you know,
what I imagine to be Ben's gentle touch British accent.
Now, Shannon...
I'm not going to say her last name
because she hasn't authorized me to do so,
but she...
Oh, potatoes.
Thank you.
Wonderful.
Where can I put those, Guy?
Could I maybe put those there so we can both enjoy them?
Absolutely.
Sharon has sent us 30 US dollars.
Love that.
That is a hell of a lot of money.
Thank you very much.
I'd like to read you a message now, Guy.
The message comes to us from Lucy. Lucy writes
Dear Timberlina and Guy Montgomery, this is just a quick email to thank you boys for the laughs
you've provided me with. You guys are hilarious even when you're drowning in pits of despair.
Even watching this film four times alongside your director's commentary was a challenge so hats off
to you. I only found this podcast about two months ago god damn you've done some catching up
but it was so funny i binged listening now i'm all caught up wishing you all the best with your
future projects i hope this isn't the end of the adventures of timbley and guybo with lots of thanks
friendship and gifts lucy m from southampton in England lovely
the Brits are coming out in force today
Lucy God bless you it's like World War 2 all over again
the Americans are going to get in late
but save the day
nah this has been good so far I've really enjoyed this
I'm all for it
hey but we're going to take a brief break
to tell you about who's paying the fucking boys
they'll tell you who it is and play us pizza
can't reiterate this enough
tell you who it is Dollar Shave Club Can't reiterate this enough. Tell you who it is. Go fuck yourselves.
Dollar Shave Club.
Now, Dollar Shave Club is the place to go if you want premium quality blades
without physically leaving your house.
And isn't that the best?
And going to the store and paying way more down the store
than if you just sit at home, dial it up on the computer, whabam.
Truly, this is a company that is leveraging all the best bits of living in 2017 for you.
From memory, this isn't in the information I've been sent.
I hope it's correct.
I think they bought their own factory to make it even cheaper so they were in control of
the whole process.
But look, whatever magic they're pulling over there, the deal is, the outcome is, very high
quality shaving products.
Not just blades anymore, but they have a whole myriad of products for gents
that live in the bathroom, delivered to your door.
Bloody cost effective as she comes, you know?
Yeah.
I'm tired of walking down the store and paying, you know,
$70, $90 for one disposable blade.
It's too much.
Do you know, I went to the supermarket the other day, Guy,
and I paid $3,000 for a Quattro.
I tell you, I would never do that to you.
Dollar Shave Club.
The good folks at Dollar Shave Club.
Here's your chance to see why over 3 million members
like myself and Guy love Dollar Shave Club.
Right now, you can get your first month of the club
for as little as $5,
and you get a cool little pack when you do it.
After that, it's just a few bucks a month.
Dollar Shave Club is so confident in the quality and value of all their products.
There's no long-term commitment or hidden fees.
There's no reason not to join.
Get yours at dollarshaveclub.com slash worstidea.
That's dollarshaveclub.com slash worstidea.
They're treating us right.
They've given us a code, guys.
You go out and support them, and it'll prove that we're good wee boys.
Dollarshaveclub.com slash worstidea.
For the love of God, some of you slackers with your horrible neck,
you know, your weird, patchy neck beds,
hit up Dollarshaveclub.
Make yourself beautiful.
Are you talking to me?
No, you look fantastic.
Thank you.
As always.
Thanks to dollarshaveclub.com slash worst idea.
It's my pleasure.
Hi, Tim.
That's it.
That's the whole first line.
There's no guy.
I want to start by saying that I'm a big fan of the show.
I've been listening to you since season one.
I see the show every time you come to LA.
But there was something in the last episode that I found very upsetting.
Oh, I think this is about calling me out
about the dead naming.
Yes, it is.
I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt
and assume that you didn't know better,
but it's super not cool to refer to a trans person
by their old name and incorrect pronouns,
which you did extensively when talking about
Lily and Lana Wachowski in The Dominatrix.
Even if you're telling a story about them
from before they transitioned,
they're still the same people.
They were women back then too, you just didn't know it.
You also said something along the lines of,
she was a he then.
While this may not have been your intention,
words like that perpetuate the idea that trans women are either secretly men
or men who have changed into women.
Trans women are women, full stop.
Thanks, Emily.
I've kind of skipped to the end.
She's just sort of reiterating that.
I'm sure it was an accident.
I learned by proxy of being with you as you learned.
In the blast radius of education.
Well, yeah.
But I hadn't actually heard the articulation of it, which is very clear.
So thank you, Emily.
Thank you, Emily.
We have a message.
We have a donation from Amy.
25 buckaroos, my friend.
Love it.
Do you know how many Dollar Shave Club products you get with 25 bucks?
Heaps.
Dear Tim Sum and Guy5, thanks for all the laughs and madness.
I've recently moved to a field in Wales.
Moved to a field in Wales.
That's interesting.
Oh, boy.
I don't know that we have many people
who are livestock listening in.
And listening to your beautiful accents
has been a great reminder of home
and also saved me from descending
into the near worst idea of all time,
insanity,
that has come with moving from London
out to the WAPs.
Keep on keeping on, boys.
Amy Hensman.
I would love to know more about
what you're doing in that field, Amy.
Yeah, Amy.
You've intrigued us.
But thank you very much for your message.
You got any more juice?
I'll throw you juice.
I would love some juice.
Here you go.
Dear Paul Bettany and Timbaldyn.
Oh, that's nice.
That's tidy because Paul Bettany was the star of the rom-com Timbaland.
Playing alongside.
Kirsten Dunst was his romantic opposite.
I remember in the opening trailer they used RJD2's Ghost Rider.
And they had balls flicking back and forth.
It was very cool.
I think you meant the person.
He was also in that film.
Really?
Did you enjoy it?
Obviously remember it.
Out of thumbs?
One thumb up.
Good.
Hold on.
One out of two, right?
Yeah, possible two.
Yeah, great.
Not to make anyone with only one or less thumb feel bad,
but that's the metric we were using.
Onward.
One thumb.
Yes, out of a possible two.
Correct.
The lowest possible score, of course, would be two thumbs down.
Right. So in actual fact, what feels like 50% is really two. Correct. The lowest possible score, of course, would be two thumbs down. Right.
So in actual fact, what feels like 50% is really 75%.
Correct.
This one's a bit of a downer.
I won't hold it against you if you don't read it on the potty.
Yeah, you do a little bit of prorating there, my friend.
While I eat and put you in a terrible
position. Did I ever tell you
about the time I was knocked on the head as a child?
Oh no, this is good to go. We're good to go.
I was on the playground and I was
coming down the slide and I
was, I distinctly remember
I was mimicking the start
of the Fresh Prince of Balea, the opening
credits. You know when he knocks on the door
to Uncle Phil's house and he rolls his head around like that?
I did that while I was coming down the slide
and I just fucking bashed my head.
Full force onto the slide, cracked my skull open.
They just took me down to the hospital
and glued my bone chest back together
that contains the treasure that is my mind brain.
I already hear that.
And you've never been the same since.
That's what your parents tell me
whenever I see them.
Correctamundo.
Been a big fan of the podcast
ever since I heard you two good boys
perform alongside
The Thrilling Adventure Hour
where the lunacy of grown-ups
was laid bare before my ears.
After your guest spot
on Spontaneity Nation
you quickly became cemented
in my standard podcast line-up.
Yes.
The system works.
It is the system working.
I'm writing because my wife and I received some bad news.
Oh.
After a recent MRI, I brought some troubling details to light.
There's a distinct possibility she may have breast cancer.
Oh, shit.
This isn't something I'd normally share with the world,
but since we're all friends here,
I was hoping we here in the friend zone
could keep her in our thoughts and prayers.
Absolutely.
Don't worry, I'm not offended if that's not your style.
And I understand if you don't want to set a gloomy precedent
for what's supposed to be a happy half hour or so.
If you fellas in the extended friend network out there could spare the good vibes,
I know we'd appreciate it.
No matter what comes of this, I want you two to know that you've done a fantastic job
of making me laugh and subsequently question the very nature of comedy.
I only hope that this picture of Braden battling an agent of the fbi can even approach a suitable offering of thanks
as far as names go mine's not important but my wife's name is rain thank you sorry right kindly
rain rain oh like the natural phenomenon uh and then this is the attached holy smokes
we've got a big old bear chasing a man down.
Well, obviously, Tucker and Rain.
I would like to address this more to Rain, but a little bit to Tucker
because you're a sweet man for getting in touch, but mainly to Rain.
Hey, you will absolutely be kept in our thoughts and prayers,
and I hope I can speak on behalf of the wider friend network
that listen to this here show.
That's a tough hand to be dealt um i will be thinking of you and i hope it all works out and
often it does at the moment you know i don't want to lessen the impact of breast cancer it's a
fucking horrible thing but they're getting they're getting better all the time at treating that stuff
that's the truth uh we wish you all the best the best until you are back to full speed in health
and consuming podcasts
at a rapid rate. Lots of
love and kisses and gifts
to both of you. Now,
we're going to end on this one, Guy.
Because the subject line is
Hey friends in the zone, urgent matters
at hand. This was sent three days ago.
Hey Tim and Guy,
this email will be terse. Don't let it make you
tens. There is little time to waste
as you near the end of your project. Point of order number
one. I've given you guys money before
but I'm not right now.
But I will again. Do you want it back
dude?
Point of order number two. I have a
suggestion for one of your last watches. The hope
to turn it from a horrible clockwork orange passive viewing scenario
to a full-on active brain workout.
For your next viewing, you guys should try to, out loud,
quote along the entire movie to see how much the dialogue has seeped into your brain.
A success rate and percentage will be interesting to your listeners.
The idea was just for your own enjoyment, brackets.
Isn't it funny how words change in context?
But now that you think about it, I'd love to hear that as a release too.
Point of order, numero tres.
This should help.
It's literally pronounced like trolley or folly or even lolly.
You know what I'm talking about.
Trust an American.
Current state of affairs notwithstanding.
You boys are good boys.
And I feel uncomfortable referring to you as fuckboys,
so I shall revert to the more language-appropriate fudgeboys.
I'll miss you, boys.
Rick Bozek from NIAC.
He's also got an addendum.
Sorry, point of order number four,
specifically for Guy, re, using the word turgid.
I also agree, great word,
hard to use outside the context of penile erection.
May I recommend something ocean-based?
The phrase turgid sea is in a ton of old literature,
and undoubtedly started falling out of fashion
once it was more socially acceptable for people...
Falling out of fashion once it was more acceptable
for people to make penis jokes.
The Turchid Sea is one that is rough, choppy, perhaps stormy,
not unlike your mental state as you near the end of the project.
Don't die. Bye.
Why, thank you so much for all of these points of order, Rich,
and that new context in which I look forward to using the word turgid.
What are your thoughts on Rich's suggestion of us trying to sing along with the movie?
I mean, it's pretty far out there.
I don't know that we've got it in us.
We haven't. I'll tell you right now, Rich, we don't know that we've got it in us. We haven't.
I'll tell you right now, Rich, we don't.
We've been complaining about this recently.
Absolutely.
And I said there's no possible application for that skill.
And here Rich is saying, well, actually, there is.
Grown-ups, too, we got real bloody good at it.
By the end there, we were getting pretty close.
Sex and City 2, very hard.
None of the dialogue makes sense.
It's just words next to each other.
And it was very long, so it was even worse and this one there's been a real mental barrier up to absorbing the text uh but that's
all we got time this bar is filling up at a rate of knots and we are really sticking out like a
sore thumb you're not wrong no not wrong at all. We're holding audio equipment mics to our faces.
Guy's got a pair of cans on the size of Arkansas.
We're not doing a great job of blending in with the general bar community on a sunny Friday.
We're about to.
Guys, thank you so much for getting in touch with us.
Thank you so much for the very kind donations.
Once again to Rain.
Let's all think of Rain and send her the absolute most
positive vibes
imaginable.
And a huge
thank you of
course to the
Dollar Shave
Club.
DollarShaveClub.com
slash worst
idea.
Guy, final
words?
Write us a letter
and we'll see you
next week.
Bye everyone. Go Tim and Guy, come to the friend zone. And have a good time, yes it's the friend zone.
Go Tim and Guy, cause making friends is the best idea of all time.
