today you ready okay let's go the hunt for the wildest movie of the summer everybody
and here this is your super friendly and not aggressive reminder to buy tickets immediately
borderlands now playing
episode 41 let's go the boys are excited i feel like this is a period of the podcast where we just started getting
a little hint of sort of success and notoriety nothing tangible yet but what's crazy to think
is in i think like i guess about 10 weeks from this episode guy and i must have been in california
so that all happened pretty damn quick getting the um the kickstarter or whatever it was up online and anyway fucking
good times good memories more good memories the patty schwartz party time theme that someone made
for us fucking rips ass you can look forward to hearing that in here i've i had all of the stuff
i kind of lost because there's just lots of things lots of like fan art pictures
people have sent us over the years
and like bits of audio stings
that they had made and sent in
and like I've got a few of them
but I'd lost so many
so it's good to come across like this one
which is baked into the episode
because it is fantastic
so good
some evidence in this episode
or rationale I guess for why i don't do
accents and voices uh you got that to look forward to and mainly just a look a couple of couple of
guys hopped up on the possibility i think of the wheels getting attached to a great vehicle to take
them to los angeles california it's um it's palpable. It's exciting. So yeah, enjoy.
The kettle stays. The kettle stays in. Build up your mind podcast the only podcast in the world where two people watch the movie grown-ups too every single
week for a year and review it at the moment i'm just watching a bird outside my window eating a
berry that's too big look dude look at that blackbird struggling away with that berry oh he
dropped it that's so good i can't a podcast is an oral experience your commentary on the bird is
worthless to these people so funny though if only you guys could see what I'm seeing right now. This is bad.
This is a bad way to start.
I'm tearing the volume down if I'm listening.
In the last episode, he's going again.
That one's even bigger.
Stop.
Look at me.
Look into my eyes.
You never look in my eyes when we're doing it anymore.
Thank you.
Is this good?
Yes.
Okay.
What were you saying?
The last podcast.
In the last podcast we did, we did the audio commentary, which was 101 minutes, which is
one hour 41.
It's too long, really.
It is too long.
It's too long for a podcast.
It's too long for some movies, as it turns out.
Too long for that movie.
And actually, I am going to confess, I haven't listened back to that yet.
Oh, that's great.
So there's going to be a risk of us parroting, or me at least,
parroting some things that have been said in the previous podcast.
Do you just wipe whatever's in your head when we're doing this?
Does it not sustain you?
I've sort of trained myself to not generate memories
while I'm talking to you about grown-ups too.
Wow.
I know.
It's dark.
Biologically interesting.
We could get you to say some pretty weird shit,
and you'd have no idea.
It'd be like hypnosis.
Yeah.
Anywhoos. Hey, so this this watch do you know what man because we did the commentary it was almost like taking a
break in a way so this one didn't feel as brutal as some of the watches that we've had i've had
yeah i thought i do think i was getting pretty antsy towards the end i was standing up there's
about 15 seconds when i was trying to block the TV you were and I got mad at you
you did
because as I said
as I said
if you're not going to
watch the movie guy
then there's no point
to any of this
to which I replied
whether or not
we watch the movie
there is no point
to any of this
either way
there's a kind of a point
what is it?
to find out
where the point is
of breaking point searching for breaking point match that would be the name of your autobiography What is it? To find out where the point is of Breaking Point.
Searching for Breaking Point.
Match.
That would be the name of your autobiography.
Yeah.
Tim Badd, search him for the Breaking Point.
You make it sound real badass when in actual fact all we're doing is watching an Adam Sandler movie.
I just changed my cadence.
Yeah, no, it was actually a surprisingly enjoyable watch this week.
I certainly found some things I hadn't seen before that I enjoyed.
Do you want to cast one of those inside of the Shining Light wrapper?
I've got enough that I don't even...
Dip it in the chocolate that is the Shining Light and deliver it forth.
I'm not even going to dip this in the Shining Light chocolate.
Put it in that golden wooden horse.
Leave it at the gates.
I've got enough positive memories from watching the movie just now
that I can say positive memories
That aren't my shining light
Wow
Just a general observation
So you've got surplus
Like more than one good thing
More than one good thing
To say about this movie
Mark this is unprecedented
This has never happened before
Keithy does some really good acting
Early on
Yes
So when the pervy postman
Is admiring Selma Hayek's bra
On the Atlas of the Dead
Who should have been
Newman
Newman
Newman
I never learned his real name What do you mean the actor Yeah Is it posty is admiring Selma Hayek's bra on the Atlas of the Dead. Who should have been... Newman from Seinfeld.
Newman.
I never learned his real name.
What do you mean?
The actor?
Yeah.
The postie or in Seinfeld?
Neither.
Both of those are not known by me.
Anyway,
when the pervy postman is admiring Selma Hayek's bra,
Keithy does a really convincing ooh.
And it's sort of,
it's just details like this.
Do you want to know why it's so good
because he doesn't use
his fucking hands
that's right
it's the only line
in the movie he delivers
without using his hands
very handsy actor
yes
he's got his own show
on Nickelodeon
does he
yeah I haven't seen it
do you reckon it's as good
as the Amanda Bynes show was
no
the Amanda Bynes show
was formative
Amanda Bynes was a real talent
I was talking to someone
about her recently.
It was on the podcast, buddy.
See, I don't remember anything.
That's wonderful.
That's kind of why I brought it up, guy.
This is great.
You laid a honey trip for me.
Do you know what, though, dude?
If I didn't listen back to them, I'd be in the same boat as you.
Because I listened back once.
To all of them.
Well, you are our audio editor.
I am the audio engineer.
I just swan in here, watch the movie, complain for 30 minutes,
and swan out and go, Tim, release it.
The people have a right to know.
But yeah, as I was saying, lots to enjoy this week.
Well, I noticed stuff that I haven't ever seen before as well
And I'll tell you one of them
Here it is
Kid Dynamite with Chris Rock's son
Bends over with the rest of the women
In Scott Robux 101
That is good
Now that's good acting
By Kid Dynamite
Do you think that's direction?
Yeah Is it A direction, B written in the script That's good acting by Kid Dynamite. Yeah. Do you think that's direction? Yeah.
Is it A, direction, B, written in the script,
or three, a fantastic ad lib by a very strong young actor?
See, now, why did you flip to numbers after two letters?
You really set me up for C, but you gave me three.
I don't know.
All right.
I didn't even know I did that.
Oh, I thought you were providing texture.
Texture.
See if I was listening.
What was it?
It was direction clearly because
he's too young to come up with that himself like he is kid dynamite no doubt about it his talent
he's a good good acting talent revelation he's too young to come up unlucky not to get his name
on the poster actually yeah i've been tagging all of the grown-ups too at the local dvd shop with
the word uh kid dynamite underneath kevin james i've actually been twinking out kevin james and
running kid dynamite over Kevin James.
I actually noticed something
in the squat aerobics class as well.
Please.
They are exercising
in what must be the shittiest gym in town.
It is a run down hole.
It's not a gym.
They've got four exercise cycles,
like a handful of Swiss balls
and then just this tatty carpet
and a cracked mirror.
I mean,
you know, we know that Selma Hayek's, what's her name, Roxanne
we know that Roxanne is
Roxanne Chase Fender we found out today
she's got a double barrel last name
one of the only moves that was pro gender equality in the whole film
they let Selma Hayek's character
have a double barrel last name
I love that
anyway
I don't know why they were working out at such a shitty gym it's a small town but surely there's more than one gym have a double barrel last name. I love that. Touching. Anyway. Anyway, yeah.
I mean, I don't know why they were working out
at such a shitty gym.
It's a small town,
but surely there's more than one gym.
Surely they'd go for the top shelf.
Well, yeah, especially because
the woman who is credited,
as we found out in the commentary,
as Kitty Beefcakes.
Yeah.
Is that what they call her in those credits?
Yeah, that's what they call her.
Like, she's cut, man.
She looks good.
She looks real good.
And there's no...
Well, you know, from that point of view,
from a bodybuilding point of view,
not my particular cup of tea.
Not to your taste.
I'd feel too emasculated.
Not everyone's tailoring themselves to your tastes, Tim.
And nor should they, mate.
I woke up and dressed myself,
and I didn't even consider you
when I was putting these clothes on this morning.
I'm happy to hear that, mate.
Did you think of me when you dressed yourself?
I did.
Yeah, this is a color that I thought you would like.
That's why I've got both blue jeans and a blue t-shirt on.
Yeah, you do.
Because I thought, this guy likes me in blue.
Call that the Montgomery special.
I love it when you dress up in blue for me.
So, what I was trying to say is, because it's weird if she's going to the gym to do squat
aerobics, because she's either nailing it by herself, unaided by a gym, like she's got
a home gym, or she's at a fantastic gym.
I'd say even if you're operating at an amateur bodybuilding level, you'd probably have some
sort of weight regimen in your house, just so that whenever you get the urge, the hankering.
So, what's she going to squat aerobics for?
I think it's addictive.
I think working out to that level is addictive.
I think that's like cigarettes or caffeine.
Yeah.
So she's got a problem.
In addition to everyone in the town questioning her gender, gender identity,
she's got some other issues going on.
It's not a great.
Hey, I'm going to bring up something important, guy.
Okay.
Super important.
Sony got hacked. yeah sony got fucking hacked big time this week someone stole like a hundred terabytes
of their data and uh do you need there's some i'm gonna leave with you guys we've got some
journalists here watching us they've been watching us the whole time and now they want to tell us
something but i don't know what it is they want us journalists oh they want us there's a huge
cushion between us that says fuck that is how could you not keep that in journalist photographer
we're getting interviewed by the local paper and i'll just turn around the cushion i've never done
this before and on the other side it says love can you guys just make some noise that's human to
make sure we haven't gone insane and you're not imaginary that's right they're real they do exist oh shit we've got a
movie to write if not so just remember we've got a big podcast on our hands sony got hacked so
100 terabytes of data has been stolen about 40 gigs been released online uh all sorts of shit
not only their movies and scripts,
but weird financial transactions.
That's right.
And we're not, I mean,
there's so much interesting and odd about this.
We're not even going to explore the conspiracies
of who has hacked them.
It was North Korea,
but we can get into that later.
No, we can't.
We don't have time to discuss that.
We'll speak about specifically what is pertaining to us.
About four of you have already posted this.
It only happened a few hours ago.
And thank you. thank you very much um the what what happens at the sony when they're
they're planning marketing for pictures or maybe even these script meetings i'm not 100 i think
it's marketing meetings is they they write down like uh the key themes and they have a they play
things really fast and loose with the definition of the word theme i'm on the right right page. Some of the key themes for grown-ups too, from memory,
Tim's just trying to dig up the slide right now,
are male problems slash potty humour.
Toilet humour.
Toilet humour.
As if that is one thing in itself.
One interchangeable term.
And of any remote interest as a theme.
Is potty humor a theme i mean they're making me question my own definition of the word theme it's
definitely themes are like love is a theme isn't it love will prevail is that a theme yeah love
overcomes that sort of shit that's theme that's themey the page that i was on guy that i had
loaded up on my little cell phone here was was the other one. Where they found this document, which is just called Sony Pictures Comments 2012 or something like that.
And it said, it is commendable that Sony Pictures Entertainment understands and supports the importance of risk-taking, particularly in how we pick films to greenlight.
However, the studio needs to change deal structure it has with Happy Madison as this arrangement has been disproportionately benefiting
Adam Sandler and his team relative to Sony.
Fucking champ.
Like, as much as I detest Adam Sandler for so many reasons,
chief among them making this god-awful movie
that we have to keep watching,
he has taken on Goliath and he has won.
He's been taking them for a ride.
That is so funny.
We sort of have touched on this in the past, haven't we,
about the Hollywood accounting and what exactly is going on
on an operation like Grown Ups 2.
Where's the budget going?
No one knows except Sandler.
Sandler has a handle on this whole operation.
God damn, he's got money for jam and it's all at the expense of Sony.
I mean, there are a few Sony employees bad-mouthing Sandler.
Yeah, they call those movies bland and shitty. I mean, there are a few Sony employees bad-mouthing Sandler. Yeah, I think this movie's like bland and shitty.
I said shitty, they said bland.
I think it's, they're not all bland or shitty,
but I think, you know, if you look at his recent filmography.
Also, actually, I just discovered this week,
someone's put us on the trivia page for Grown Ups 2 on IMDb.
So if you are listening, thank you so much.
Yeah, cheers.
Because anyone could look up that website,
and now they'd know about it.
You even named the podcast.
On a related note, in terms of appreciation for the fans,
we've been receiving just the best correspondence ever.
Just some messages that are so long and delightful.
You guys are shining beacons of light and hope
in a despairing dark cavity
I almost feel like we could do a whole podcast
Just reading out great
We got
I'm going to post this on the Facebook wall
After this ep goes up
We got an email from a Cambridge University student
A remarkably detailed
Sort of like first
And yes, the Cambridge
At least first year university level essay
Drawing thematic comparisons between to kill a mockingbird.
Yeah.
Harper Lee's fantastic to kill a mockingbird and grownups too.
And someone said, I told my flatmate this and they said, uh, do they, I mean, is there merit in what they were writing?
To which I said, I mean, I think, I fairness, if you put that level of observation on anything,
you can draw comparisons.
But I mean, it's a bang-up.
It's a bang-up essay.
I know a lot about grown-ups, too.
Don't know a lot about One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
To Kill a Mockingbird.
To Kill a Mockingbird.
See?
Either of those.
Either of those.
They were all on in fifth-form English.
I don't know which one was which.
I didn't read either of them
But I love the fact
Just for our American listeners
5th form English
That would be your freshman year
Don't pander to them
No that would be your junior year
Don't you dare
It's your junior year
They'll come to us
Alright
Oh yeah and we're going to go to you as well
I really want to go to LA
I've decided we want to make it a thing
Look we haven't even mentioned What's coming up in this episode as well all right uh before you
go on some weird and wild random crowdsourcing flights to los angeles that's where i was going
you just saved me a bunch of time we have got on this episode coming up uh a conversation with
tanya tanya akim uh, we've long been promising this.
Tanya is an extra
to whom we reached out
weeks and weeks ago.
She's in the ice cream shop
with Colin Quinn.
She does some fantastic acting.
She gets brained
by an ice cream scoop.
And I mean,
so I'm really looking forward
to talking to her
and sort of seeing
what her experience is like
and what she's been up to
since the movie came out.
You and me both.
Yeah.
Anyway, so that's to look forward to.
I mean, do you want to touch on this whole ludicrous idea
to get us to Los Angeles?
Nope.
I'd rather do my Shining Light.
Okay.
Which I can't remember because you wrote it down for me.
I'll turn the page.
That's such a good page noise.
Listen to this, folks.
It's paper.
Your Shining Light, Tim.
Keithy Scream Peak.
Now, in film, you don't get it all the time,
but once in a while, you get a character scream,
and when your sound guy isn't too good,
they've got the boom too close to their face,
and it peaks out, so it distorts, right?
And the best example of this ever is Marv in Home Alone 1
when he gets a tarantula on his face
and it is one of the best sounding screams in cinema.
I challenge anyone to find me a better one.
It doesn't peak.
It does peak.
But it's just a very committed scream that he gets.
It's such an unrewarding job sound because, I mean,
the only measurable of whether or not you've done a good job is if anyone notices.
And the goal is to not be noticed.
That's the same as so many jobs, man.
If you're doing it right, you're invisible.
And you only get visible when you're a Muppet.
Anyway.
Anyway, so who is it who screams?
Keithie.
What bit am I...
Oh, when he slams his leg down.
On the table.
Why is that my shining light?
Because you're an idiot.
That was terrible.
My shining light was also during the dinner scene.
We both had it.
Today.
You ready?
Okay, let's go.
The hunt for the wildest movie of the summer.
Everybody run!
Ends here.
This is your super friendly and not aggressive reminder to buy tickets immediately.
Borderlands. Now playing.
Bang, bang.
Mine was Chris Rock.
You'll notice on his plate he has a really hearty helping of lasagna.
Chris Rock's pretty much got a family-sized lasagna heaped on his plate at the beginning of dinner.
And then there's sort of a five to six second conversation
taking place at the dinner table between his children
and his wife, Maya Rudolph.
And then when it comes back to Chris Rock,
in about eight seconds,
he has straight up demolished half of a lasagna.
And I mean, I'm assuming it's fresh out of the oven.
That's a hot lasagna.
You're going to burn the roof of your mouth.
Temperature or not.
You're going to be getting some indigestion problems,
certainly.
That's still just a
fuckload of carbs
to be slamming down your gob.
He's a family man.
You've got to start looking
at what you're eating, Chris.
You can't put away
a whole lasagna
at dinner time anymore.
You're in your 40s, mate.
You're in your 40s.
You've got to be honest
with yourself and your body.
Listen to what it's saying to you.
Yeah.
Speaking of which,
someone who's got
a fantastic body
and isn't afraid of listening to it
It goes by the name of
Oh
I see
Paddy Schwartz
Party time
It's Paddy Schwartz party time
It's party time with Paddy Schwartz
He's running around in his muscle singlet
Eating a pizza cause he owns a pizza company It's Paddy Schwartz party time with Paddy Schwartz. He's running around in his muscle singlet eating a pizza
because he owns a pizza company.
It's Paddy Schwartz.
Party time.
Paddy Schwartz.
Party time.
It's party time with Paddy Schwartz.
So we found out this week that Paddy Schwartz owns a Blaze location.
That's why he's always flogging it.
He owns one of them.
He owns one of the franchises.
I suspected that from dot one.
You definitely did.
And actually, big shout out to Blaze Pizza.
If you are on the Venice boardwalk and you're looking for a quick, delicious slice of pizza,
not too heavy.
It's not going to slow you down for your workout at Gold's later or your yoga session with
Tanya.
You go Gold's first.
Always go Gold's first.
Yeah.
I don't know which of you is eating pizza on your way to the gym, but you've got to
look at your decisions.
You're 40 now.
You've got to look after your body. And to it you gotta listen to it uh yeah anyway
so what was patty schwartz's party time this week tim you took the reins so it happened for about
three quarters of one second in the movie it's all you need with patty and it was the scene when
it's been said that having having sex with patrick schwarzenegger it can actually only last three
quarters of a second because the level of intensity is so high
that if you have sex with him
for longer than that
exact amount of time,
you literally become catatonic
and cannot feel emotions
or communicate with other people.
So,
shit,
you've really thrown me there.
Because I looked you in the eye
because you told me to at the start
and there was such intensity
and now I'm... No, you... I know where i'm going with this i got this big dog
keep a handle on things at the um party scene at the end we're at the fader's house and the
frat boys show up and we're running we're running at each other lord of the rings style a community
versus the orcs slash frat boys and uh you see patty schwartz's face for a brief second but i'll tell you what
it's pissed off it's angry it's got aggression on it and uh it's great it's really good acting
from him that's hey and and if you're listening patty big ups to you as always come join us in la
come join us in la uh just quickly because we're about to cross over live to Tanya now, which means that we're going to have to wrap up our analysis of the film.
I kept a log today of the continuity errors vis-a-vis the raft.
How much time do you think we have?
Save that for next episode.
No, look, it's going to be real quick.
Anyway, because it's always bothered me.
I've always noticed it.
It's a really, I mean, it's a glaring error.
So the first time you see the raft is when Nick Swartzen pulls the cord and came out.
There are no seats in the raft.
Bronchitis is still there.
No one wants to hear about your bronchitis.
Right, you go.
It's fucking disgusting.
You go.
Anyway, the next time you see the raft,
they've always had to buy that raft, I'm assuming,
because of opening it.
They've strapped it to the roof of the bus.
There are now seats on that raft.
Previously, there were no seats.
Now, there are seats on the raft.
And it continues like that.
There's always seats on the raft
until the next time you see one,
which is when Kevin Hart
explodes one out of his fanny pack.
There are then no seats on the raft.
Kevin Hart's in this movie?
Kevin James.
Oh, Kevin James, yeah.
I would kill for some Kevin Hart.
Imagine if next week
when we turned on the movie,
Kevin Hart walked into one of the scenes.
Would that not just fill you with joy?
It would freak me out.
There's something we've been experiencing for 40 weeks suddenly changed
that's already been recorded.
What are you talking about?
I'm sorry, bro, for breaking the world of the podcast
where it all makes sense and means something.
Listen, I can tell you exactly why the seats, seats, no seats, seats situation is.
Because when the raft is exploding out, those rafts can't have seats.
It's too rigid to fit in a fanny pack.
You'll notice whenever it explodes out, it doesn't have seats.
But when it's just a static shot, it has seats.
And that's the reason why.
So they're buying different rafts from the one advertised.
Or they've created one that can explode
And the secret to making it fit in the fanny pack
I know what you're trying to do
We need to get on to Tanya
But first we need to get on a mystery tour bus
Because
Roll up
Roll up for the mystery tour
Roll up
This one's too long
Yeah yeah
Far too long
It's the Steve Buscemi mystery tour
What happened to cause Steve Buscemi
To have his very unique
Set of ailments
In Grown Ups 1
He's only got 40% feeling in his body
And his arms are trapped in the touchdown position
How are we going to do it this week, Tim?
Let me grab this one, bro.
Okay.
Kid Dynamite,
Mayor Rudolph and Chris Rock's youngest.
Yes.
Bit him in the ankle.
Ooh, yeah.
A la John Lovitz in the squat aerobics class.
You got the callback.
Yeah.
In such a specific location that it caused nerve damage.
He hit something.
He hit something in there.
But he's the kicker, right? location that it caused nerve damage. He hit something. He hit something in there. But
he's the kicker.
Right?
The arms, an unrelated
injury. It didn't come from the same
thing. Two injuries in one movie.
Yes. Wiley cannot catch a break.
So
Charlotte
accidentally
ironed a shirt to his arms while he was wearing it.
Oh, what a caperish movie grown-up sounds like.
So Steve Buscemi got a skin graft and couldn't move his arms for a while.
Okay.
Roll up.
Roll up.
It was a brief mystery tour.
What we're going to do now is we're gonna
play
someone submitted to us
a fully produced
rock version
of the Paddy Schwartz
Party Time intro
uh
sampled our voices
added some rock music
yeah
I'm gonna give that
an outing now
and then we'll be back
with Tanya
sounds good

And is it true?
Yeah.
Beyond understanding it?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah? How was that?
India's dirty.
Dirty?
So dirty.
What do you mean? The streets are dirty?
Yeah. So much rubbish.
Did you do some cleaning up?
No one's buying this, eh? Probably.
Almost definitely not.
I wouldn't say anyone would be buying this.
We got stood up.
We did, big time.
So this has been recorded several days after the first bit of the podcast,
so that's why it probably sounds different.
Sorry about that.
We had a time with Tanya, and I don't hold any grudges,
because we'll talk to her.
We will.
I don't begrudge her.
If anything, it's better.
It lengthens the tease even more.
It makes this an even bigger deal than it once was.
That payoff is really going to come through.
What are we even going to ask you, though?
I'll do Tanya.
You do.
Okay.
Okay, let's waste some more time on this.
Tanya, welcome to the podcast.
Hello.
Thank you.
It's so good to be here.
Yeah, it's great to have you on. Listen, I want to dive right in and ask you it's so good to be here yeah it's great
to have you on listen i want to dive right in ask you about making the movie oh yeah sure so what is
it like working with huge hollywood stars like adam sandler and kevin james and chris rock oh my god
uh for me it was i mean i sort of just got called in. I knew one of the producers, and they said,
can you do us a favor?
We need someone to get brained by an ice cream scoop.
And I said yes immediately.
And I didn't actually get to work with any of the stars of the film.
It was just me and Colin Quinn in the ice cream shop.
What's Colin like as a dude?
He's lovely.
This is not going.
Nah. I need the real
interview goes better than than these ones well she'll probably have she'll be manufacturing
answers as she speaks in her faux californian lilt it's a good point it's a very good point
um i'll tell you what though there's there's certainly there's starting to be some movement
on our uh our trip over to LA.
No, yeah, there's genuine hope in the air right now.
That's why we'd really encourage you, if you haven't already, to click on the bloody Facebook,
because we'll chuck any updates we do up on there.
I've got to get my head around Kickstarter, because...
Do you know how much I owe the bank right now, bro?
Like, literally thousands of dollars.
My credit card has never been in worse shape than it is right now. It's terrifying. Just explain it to the bank right now bro Like literally thousands of dollars My credit card has never been in worse shape
Than it is right now
It's terrifying
Just explain it to the bank
Just go and say I'm good for it
Give me more
Yeah I don't know if they'll buy that though
Because I don't have a full time job anymore
What do you do?
You take out competing loans
Loans from competing banks
Oh yeah two visas
Oh you've done this
Well there you go It's free money right there i guess so i guess that's one plan but i
feel like the banks will talk to each other and i'll find out and i'll be in big trouble banks
don't talk to each other bro never get a mortgage you know that look this is going off the rails um
fuck i'm really sorry we didn't have tanya i Yeah, same. I feel bad about it. I feel bad.
We did tee it up.
I want to express that in no uncertain terms.
We had a time and everything.
Obviously, it's difficult finding a mutually accessible time between Los Angeles, California, and Auckland, New Zealand,
but we agreed on one.
For whatever reason, it didn't work out.
Tanya sent her apologies
has she has she no she hasn't she hasn't been in touch since that's the thing i thought you said
she sent her apologies no that was that was for the first time that was when she hadn't been in
touch in like weeks and weeks when she was in india i haven't heard from her since she was
supposed to meet us online oh yeah so you know, hope she's okay.
Keep an eye out for Tanya down there around Venice Beach at a Yoka's studio.
Maybe in the valley, who knows?
Maybe at Blaze Pizza,
just gobbling down some of that delicious pizza
with those artisanal ingredients.
It was a 180-degree flash-baked pizzas.
When you are thinking pizza, you're probably thinking Blaze.
Just quickly, I mean, while we're here, I will touch on the fact that you guys been doing a bang up job uh
with the patrick schwarzenegger party time news petty petty schwartz apparently is a bigger party
animal than miley cyrus yeah that's insane isn't that awesome it's a that we i mean we kind of we
didn't realize we called it we did call it We called it big time because I don't think people knew.
We, you know, it was a blank slate that we projected the party animal emblem onto,
much like the bat signal into a cloudy night.
But lo and behold, Paddy Schwartz has stepped up.
He's stepped up and he's gone,
I won't be the party animal that you want me to be,
but I will be the one that you deserve.
Yeah.
Which is huge.
He's a Kennedy.
Yeah, he is.
From the Shriver side.
That's why I got confused about the politics of the Schwarzenegger family
because Arnie is a Republican
but Maria Shriver is a Democrat
because she's from the illustrious Kennedy family.
Oh my God, and they're making it work.
And could there be any greater example
to show Congress right now
that sides can work together
than Arnie and Mariaia schreiber and
relationships can survive indiscretions anywho american politics aside uh oh what i wanted to
say was thank you everybody which is a lot of people who have come forward and chucked um the
updates about the sony hack onto our wall yeah god has that been exciting to follow if you haven't
seen the news and i'm sure you have sony got hacked biggest corporate hack in history and uh we've already i think we've already we
touched on i think we've touched on it yeah yeah but um basically all these slides came out that
were internal slides we've touched on this as well have we what the first bit of this yeah it was
days ago so i have no memory of it fuck man Look this is going down the tubes We'll just just buff this one on the internet
We'll call it a day's work
Apologies for not getting tiny for you
Sorry about that guys
But not really
Because you know
Gosh darn it
Fuck you in a way
No
You're not paying for this
No
You have flipped a switch
Is your mic on?
You sound so far away guy
We have a sensitive
You can't just start berating the fans.
Watch me.
Watch this.
You're all schmucks.
I don't necessarily disagree with that,
but I also don't support you saying it.
We're bigger schmucks, don't get me wrong,
but, you know, we're all in a schmucky boat together.
Schmucking it up.
It's just we're at the helm of it.
Look, thank you so much for listening.

with anything that's happening
on our end
and in the meantime
keep an eye out for the Kickstarter
y'all
yeah in the meantime
don't watch the movie
oh yeah
let me say that
this is an important point
someone asked me
you guys have put the
commentary out you've been telling us for months now not to watch the movie are you saying we
should watch the movie now so a guy private messaged us on our group and he said guys i
just watched the movie and i said all right mate look you've watched it one time so you you know
you're like in fact i'll try and bring it up but i was basically saying to him you are now the
audience surrogate for all the people who haven't seen the movie.
What say you?
I'm going to put the ball in your court.
Do you think people should watch it?
And he said, you know what?
No.
He said, don't watch the movie.
And I agree with him.
He watched the movie with the director's commentary, didn't he?
Yeah, he did.
And on the balance of things,
even he couldn't bring himself to recommend people do that.
So we're going to stick to our guns, folks,'re going to say um don't don't watch the movie the commentary is fine as it
stands by itself um i can't find that guy's message god we're getting a lot of messages
i haven't read any of these well lots to do lots to do uh thank you so much for listening honestly
ignore tim he's just going through a bit of a thing at the moment. Oh, I love you guys. You know I do.
Tim went to the dentist today,
and they sort of paralyzed the left side of his mouth.
Yeah, I'm like a stroke victim.
I mean, that's probably where a lot of the mood's coming from.
Yeah, I guess so.
Anyhow, peace out,
and don't watch the movie.
Live every moment.
Then you say love every day.
Say it, guy.
Say love every day. Love every day. Say it, guy. Say love every day.
Love every day.
It's over.
It's over. Oh, you know me if your precious time slips away.
Beautiful.
