<v Speaker 1>been miserable the last couple of days.
<v Speaker 2>Plus it worked out well though, because we had really
<v Speaker 2>good weather last week and then on Friday it was
<v Speaker 2>supposed to be the weather Foreka said piss and rain right,
<v Speaker 2>and I was like, oh, the poor kids, because they're
<v Speaker 2>going to be going trick or treating and they're going
<v Speaker 2>to not be able to trick a trick. It's going
<v Speaker 2>to be piss and rain right, And then it just stopped.
<v Speaker 2>So our estate says you can trick a treat from
<v Speaker 2>five o'clock onwards to be four five o'clo. Because then
<v Speaker 2>when I scattered from whah blah blah blah, and then
<v Speaker 2>at five the five, it's like rain stops.
<v Speaker 1>It's open son and all the kids, it's like it's
<v Speaker 1>the most wonderful time of the year. So it was great.
<v Speaker 2>So all the weekend was really nice weather. Then Monday
<v Speaker 2>almost just piss and rain again. I don't mind, I have
<v Speaker 2>it's pissing rain during the week the weekend, and the
<v Speaker 2>weekend's fine where you're coming from. Yeah, but I feel
<v Speaker 2>like every day's a weekend for us. That's how I
<v Speaker 2>feel at the moment. I said to my mate the
<v Speaker 2>other day, Because what do you do on the weekend,
<v Speaker 2>I said, heavy day kind of feels like the weekend
<v Speaker 2>for me because I don't go to a place to work.
<v Speaker 1>Did he punch you in the face? Did he kick
<v Speaker 1>you on the ball?
<v Speaker 2>I said, Like, I do work, but because I don't
<v Speaker 2>leave the house, it doesn't feel the same. You know,
<v Speaker 2>I know, it's like I know exactly I'm home on
<v Speaker 2>the weekend and I'm home during the week.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.
<v Speaker 2>No, I dropped me, insane. I feel exactly the same way. Yeah,
<v Speaker 2>time has lost all meaning. Yeah, but we're here to
<v Speaker 2>talk about some questions, aren't we. We got a bunch
<v Speaker 2>of them, Yeah, we did. So mailbag at four finger
<v Speaker 2>discount dot com dot If we don't get to your
<v Speaker 2>question this week, don't panic. We'll get to your question
<v Speaker 2>in next month's mail bag. So we've gathered up all
<v Speaker 2>the questions. We will get to all of them. Some
<v Speaker 2>of them are safe for Christmas time as well, because
<v Speaker 2>some of them are Christmas themed. Because Halloween was last
<v Speaker 2>week October thirty first, it's now early November, we thought
<v Speaker 2>we'd try and pick out all the Halloween based questions.
<v Speaker 2>There's all some others as well that have come through.
<v Speaker 1>And the first one that may I just real quickly, yeah, shure,
<v Speaker 1>we got start.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, yes. The first question here that came through
<v Speaker 2>is what did you guys do for Halloween?
<v Speaker 1>All right? Shall I start? Go for it? Okay, Listeners
<v Speaker 1>to the show will be aware of my friend Savvy Steve. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>the savviest of Saves is indeed the early adopter of
<v Speaker 1>much technology, but also a big, big fan of Halloween.
<v Speaker 1>So every year but last six seven years or so,
<v Speaker 1>he will go wild get all manner of Halloween candy
<v Speaker 1>from all over the world. Really, he actually imported something
<v Speaker 1>from the US store Spirit Halloween. Oh yeah, yeah.
<v Speaker 2>I've got to mate who's coming over at Christmas time,
<v Speaker 2>and I've ordered some stuff in Spirit to his house.
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna Halloween stuff is yeah, because Spirit Halloween will
<v Speaker 1>not ship to Australia, so we had to go through
<v Speaker 1>one of those places. It's like drop shippers. Yeah, the
<v Speaker 1>drop shiping costs almost as much as the thing itself,
<v Speaker 1>but it was worth it because it was a spooky
<v Speaker 1>jack of Landon and it spooked the heck out of
<v Speaker 1>the kids showing up to get their Halloween candy. What
<v Speaker 1>did it do? Oh no, no, that's what the kids
<v Speaker 1>would do, but it would sort of go and then
<v Speaker 1>it was like pup, open a jack and loot. That's awesome. Hope,
<v Speaker 1>I hope that visual work. Hopefully audios, what he gave
<v Speaker 1>you sends to what the visual was like. But does
<v Speaker 1>he clean up at Big w and Target whatnot? When?
<v Speaker 2>So it's always November first, It's like everything's just like
<v Speaker 2>the fifty to sixty percent half.
<v Speaker 1>I'm wondering how much of it he buys locally because
<v Speaker 1>I think a fair bit of any importance, because I
<v Speaker 1>think he wants to have a very sort of going
<v Speaker 1>to be like, oh you got that from Target as well. Yes,
<v Speaker 1>he wants to have stuff that's a little more shall
<v Speaker 1>we say individual.
<v Speaker 2>It's like how I used to be. I'm not nearmore,
<v Speaker 2>but it used to be. We're talking about it with
<v Speaker 2>Nina O Yama and fourfing a discount. This is forking
<v Speaker 2>it just recorded gone down this pup an episode of
<v Speaker 2>Nino Yamahow saw shirts online because then you thought no
<v Speaker 2>one else is going to have it. That's where you
<v Speaker 2>see someone else having You're.
<v Speaker 1>Like, damn it. Everyone else has the Internet as well.
<v Speaker 1>So I went over to help Steve out with handing
<v Speaker 1>out some trick or treat bags. What is he for?
<v Speaker 1>He's in drum Condra, which is not far from yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
<v Speaker 1>but anywhere, and Geelong is not far from anywhere else.
<v Speaker 1>And just had a really nice time. I mean, you know,
<v Speaker 1>you had kids of all ages rocking up to you know,
<v Speaker 1>get those sweet treats. And Steve had also recently splashed
<v Speaker 1>out and bought an Evil Dead pinball machine. Oh the
<v Speaker 1>legit one. Yeah the sabby Steve have kids, but played
<v Speaker 1>a few rounds of the Evil did pinball machine. That
<v Speaker 1>was pretty rad too. I think Steve should be all
<v Speaker 1>over the virtual pinball. He's the kind of guy that
<v Speaker 1>would have one of those. I think he likes old
<v Speaker 1>school but you still have the virtual as well, I'm sure,
<v Speaker 1>but I think he prefers the more Tactile one. So yeah,
<v Speaker 1>there was that. I played a few rounds of that,
<v Speaker 1>which was rad, and I swear get tired. So I
<v Speaker 1>went home, had a little bit of a snack, and
<v Speaker 1>I watched Nightmare on Elm Street. Three Dream Warriors. Why three?
<v Speaker 1>Have you recently watched one and two or you? No? No?
<v Speaker 1>I just like three.
<v Speaker 2>I think it might be my favorite. It's got, you know,
<v Speaker 2>rock and songs by Dock And I've never been a
<v Speaker 2>huge fan of the night Mare and al Street series
<v Speaker 2>in general. I remember of all because when I was
<v Speaker 2>a teenager used to love Horror, Francis the major ones,
<v Speaker 2>and I was big on Halloween, big on Fine the thirteenth,
<v Speaker 2>and then just there was something about Freddy Krueger. It
<v Speaker 2>was fine, it was my favorite.
<v Speaker 1>Something wrong with you Bitch? I don't know, it's just
<v Speaker 1>that wasn't the rock that was that was Freddy Krueger.
<v Speaker 1>Although it sounds a bit like the rock. I just
<v Speaker 1>I think it'sund all at Freddy Krueger. Thanks, Yes, I know,
<v Speaker 1>just something I was wah people actually pinpoint why Yeah.
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna say it's one of those you had
<v Speaker 1>to be there things, but I think it really sort
<v Speaker 1>of hits Hart of a Generation X kids. He feels like, yeah,
<v Speaker 1>it feels like ours. Yeah, and he said that, I
<v Speaker 1>mean you were a fan of Michael and Jason, then
<v Speaker 1>we sort of claimed those as well.
<v Speaker 2>But it's more the simplicity of those ones as well.
<v Speaker 2>Could will be walking remember with the knife?
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Jason and Front of the thirty, And that's very
<v Speaker 1>sort of just blunt object, doesn't it? Yeah? Or sharp object? Yes? Indeed,
<v Speaker 1>what did what did you dress up? Did you dress up?
<v Speaker 1>And I didn't dress up? In the just was guy Davis?
<v Speaker 1>I did? Yeah, the spookiest creature of the podcast extraordinaiyce.
<v Speaker 1>It's this thing on.
<v Speaker 2>So I got the kids from school, got them into
<v Speaker 2>their costumes, got all the lollies ready to decorate the house,
<v Speaker 2>and then took Nicola to Melbourne to watch Oasis. So
<v Speaker 2>my parents took the kids to god Trading and we
<v Speaker 2>went to Oasis. It was on the thirty first, and
<v Speaker 2>it was a really good gig. You know, I was
<v Speaker 2>a big fan of Oasis and it's one of those
<v Speaker 2>Oasis are a band that I haven't gone back and
<v Speaker 2>read this into for a while. And I remember during
<v Speaker 2>my teen years, I was really big on Oasis, and
<v Speaker 2>then recently I put them on about two weeks ago
<v Speaker 2>because I got the Messa saying don't forget you going
<v Speaker 2>too Oasis, and I was like, that's right about those
<v Speaker 2>tickets a year ago and I was like, oh, that's cool,
<v Speaker 2>and I put Oasis on. I went this was like
<v Speaker 2>the soundtrack for my teen years. Like a lot of this.
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh, I've completely forgot some of these
<v Speaker 1>songs existed, and I'm not gonna lie. There's a song
<v Speaker 1>by Oasis called Little by Little right as my favorite
<v Speaker 1>Oasis song as a part just before the bridge to
<v Speaker 1>the chorus where he says and.
<v Speaker 2>Maguary woke up on the wrong side of his bed.
<v Speaker 2>It's a real singer long part and it's my favorite
<v Speaker 2>thing that Oasis do. And I'm going to be honest,
<v Speaker 2>I started crying.
<v Speaker 1>Oh. At the concert. I was singing it and I
<v Speaker 1>was I was like crying. I don't even realize, and
<v Speaker 1>I I was like sad, power of music. But it
<v Speaker 1>was just weird. I didn't even realize I was crying.
<v Speaker 2>I was just like because he sang the first chorus
<v Speaker 2>and then I was what's my face? I was like, oh, oh,
<v Speaker 2>I'm crying. I was like, it's amazing what music can
<v Speaker 2>do to you.
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely, you were so happy to be there, and so
<v Speaker 1>through a by the experience that you lit up a flare. Oh.
<v Speaker 2>I was about to say, so, if you've been the
<v Speaker 2>under a rock, you wouldn't be aware. But if you
<v Speaker 2>are a follower of os, social media or just the
<v Speaker 2>news in general, someone set off a flare during the
<v Speaker 2>last song Champagne, Sup and ever was that last song.
<v Speaker 2>And about two or three minutes in, we're we're on
<v Speaker 2>Marvel Stadium. We're on the floor, so we're all standing
<v Speaker 2>around and I see this orange light and obviously Nicola
<v Speaker 2>and says to you, my sister who came with this
<v Speaker 2>a little bit sor he says orange light. And I'm like,
<v Speaker 2>what is that? I thought more glowstick or something. And
<v Speaker 2>I see this flare go flying from one side of
<v Speaker 2>the crowd to the other on the stand in the
<v Speaker 2>standing room. And I was sitting there going, oh.
<v Speaker 1>That's not good.
<v Speaker 2>That is not good. The person threw it, that's the thing.
<v Speaker 2>They lit it and threw it right. I was like, oh,
<v Speaker 2>that's to And then all of a sudden, you see
<v Speaker 2>this smoke coming up and this dry orange light, and
<v Speaker 2>all I could see was the flare and it looked
<v Speaker 2>like a fire right, And for about I've said to
<v Speaker 2>my mates, for about five seconds, I genuinely thought, Okay.
<v Speaker 1>We need to go now. I don't want to die
<v Speaker 1>in Marls. Yeah.
<v Speaker 2>I grabbed Nicholas's hand, I looked to my sister and
<v Speaker 2>I was about to say we need to go now,
<v Speaker 2>because I'm looking over and I'm seeing people sort of
<v Speaker 2>like moving around, moving away, and this is flaying, and
<v Speaker 2>I thought the roofs closed, there's sixty thousand people here.
<v Speaker 2>We're going to die in this room if this is
<v Speaker 2>a fire. Noel Gallagher you can see he's on the
<v Speaker 2>big screen. You see him stop playing the song. He's
<v Speaker 2>just looking down. He's looking over at lean looking at it.
<v Speaker 2>He's like, is anyone else seeing this?
<v Speaker 1>And my fucking is there a fire there?
<v Speaker 2>So what happened was someone picked up the flare and
<v Speaker 2>held it above their head and was waving it around
<v Speaker 2>trying to be here, but also just to make sure
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't get thrown anywhere else and just sort of
<v Speaker 2>protecting everybody. But for five ten seconds, I actually thought
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to die in Marvel Stadium It was scary,
<v Speaker 2>and it was kind of disappointing because it left the
<v Speaker 2>concert on a bit of a down note because that
<v Speaker 2>was your last song and you're like, oh, it's it's
<v Speaker 2>the last Champanship and ever oh am I going to die?
<v Speaker 2>And for I reckon for the I don't think I
<v Speaker 2>listened to the rest of the song because the rest
<v Speaker 2>of the song I was just concentrating on this flare
<v Speaker 2>I'm not dying and worrying to make sure that another
<v Speaker 2>one's going to go off. And all I did was
<v Speaker 2>I was looking for that the closest exits. And I
<v Speaker 2>know this sounds morbid, but I actually thought we could
<v Speaker 2>die right here.
<v Speaker 1>I thought it was I thought it was a bumber.
<v Speaker 1>I thought it was a fire. Yeah. And then that's
<v Speaker 1>when you see what Liam read on Twitter. Oh something
<v Speaker 1>pretty sweary.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah, And it was just like basically, you'll get
<v Speaker 2>what's coming to you. You fucking you drop the sea bomb.
<v Speaker 1>He's like, you idiot. Why I was thinking you dropped
<v Speaker 1>the sea bomb? So why would you do that at
<v Speaker 1>a concert? You know?
<v Speaker 2>Not not that, because he's like, ruined my concert. You could
<v Speaker 2>kill people, like the fact that you know Nold Gallagher
<v Speaker 2>looked very concerned. People are scattering, there's this orange fire
<v Speaker 2>bursting out, smoke's going in the middle of the standing room,
<v Speaker 2>and it would have been about honestly, I'd say, from
<v Speaker 2>here to your car at the front yard.
<v Speaker 1>For me, so it was like thirty meters from us.
<v Speaker 1>It was we could smell the smoke from it. It was.
<v Speaker 1>It was scary.
<v Speaker 2>My sister's got a video of it, and it was
<v Speaker 2>just like because she held up her phone and she
<v Speaker 2>was filming the concert, not realizing she was filming this
<v Speaker 2>because you don't even see it. She was like, Brendan,
<v Speaker 2>why do you look scared? I was like, just hang on,
<v Speaker 2>hang on. I was like, Okay, we're fine, it's going
<v Speaker 2>I'm not.
<v Speaker 1>A scared now. Yeah, but I was very scared for
<v Speaker 1>a minute. Man.
<v Speaker 2>It was it was you don't get many moment street
<v Speaker 2>your life where you actually think, oh, this could be it.
<v Speaker 2>I actually thought what what came to me? I was like,
<v Speaker 2>oh my god, the kids are at home. We're gonna
<v Speaker 2>die in Marvel. That's what I'm thinking to my head.
<v Speaker 2>It was scary. Man, fucking idiot sets off a flarer
<v Speaker 2>a concert standing room just and throws it weak as anything. Yeah,
<v Speaker 2>throwing a flare into a credit Luckily nobody was hurt,
<v Speaker 2>but man, that could have been a disaster. And my
<v Speaker 2>big question is how the fuck did he get a
<v Speaker 2>flare in the place. Yeah, that's what scared me the most.
<v Speaker 2>I was like, Okay, so he's walking if he's he's
<v Speaker 2>had a flare on him for this entire duration, not good.
<v Speaker 1>Halloween. I was scared.
<v Speaker 2>I guess on Halloweens I got spooked. Yeah, but it
<v Speaker 2>was my Oways's experience. Fantastic concert was really good. They're
<v Speaker 2>just you know, they're just professionals.
<v Speaker 1>Of course they are.
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, that was a bit of a sad note
<v Speaker 2>at the end as well. I thought, am I going
<v Speaker 2>to die on.
<v Speaker 1>This question? Here? With the Simpsons now a part of Fortnite,
<v Speaker 1>can we get a guy versus Dando battle? I don't
<v Speaker 1>know what that means.
<v Speaker 2>I threw out on Facebook yesterday. I'm gonna have to
<v Speaker 2>buy a Fortnite now to play this. And you're so old, Dando.
<v Speaker 2>You don't buy Fortnite. It's free. You buy the packs
<v Speaker 2>to play it. And I went, oh, I see what
<v Speaker 2>you're saying, but you know you're still paying for it.
<v Speaker 2>And Nicolas because Nicola goes So this guy thinks that
<v Speaker 2>he's getting it for free, but he's still going to
<v Speaker 2>pay for the skins.
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, yeah, can you explaining Fortnite to me?
<v Speaker 1>So Fortnite, I am actually not completely sure, but I'm
<v Speaker 1>pretty sure Fortnite is it's a Hunger Games or what's
<v Speaker 1>the Battle Royale with? Basically, it's just people on an
<v Speaker 1>island last Man's Standing. So basically it's there's a map
<v Speaker 1>and you get flown in, you drop into this map
<v Speaker 1>and it's just a free for all and it's the
<v Speaker 1>last Man's standing. So you're doing this in Springfield as
<v Speaker 1>Simpson's characters. Interesting, okay, and they want to pick Daniel
<v Speaker 1>against guys.
<v Speaker 2>I think it'd be really fun for us, you and I.
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I've got more of an understanding of games
<v Speaker 2>and years indeed, would I would die very quickly. I'm
<v Speaker 2>not good at shooting games and things like that. I
<v Speaker 2>can play, you know, cricket games and platform games like
<v Speaker 2>Crash Bandicoot. I don't play these Call of Duties and
<v Speaker 2>Fortnites and.
<v Speaker 1>Whatnot, right, I can play Reindier games.
<v Speaker 2>So I feel like you and I should do it.
<v Speaker 2>Because I think it'd be a lot of fun. Me
<v Speaker 2>just like high and mos and trying to stalk you
<v Speaker 2>and whatnot. I think it'd be good fun.
<v Speaker 1>Okay, well we'll give if someone wants to shout of
<v Speaker 1>some skins. Well, i've alread bought it.
<v Speaker 2>I bought it last night. Oh okay, yeah, so it's
<v Speaker 2>going to happen. It's happening.
<v Speaker 1>Yes, Well, there we go be stuper sexy Flanders. I've
<v Speaker 1>said here, I am aware of the word fortnite, but
<v Speaker 1>I had no idea what it entailed. Is it a
<v Speaker 1>positive move that the Simpsons are involved in Fortnite? I
<v Speaker 1>think it is.
<v Speaker 2>They've already done Bob's Burgers and family going Key of
<v Speaker 2>the Hill, I'm pretty sure, so it can only be
<v Speaker 2>a positive for the Simpsons, and people are saying, oh,
<v Speaker 2>the Simpsons the shit. I'm like, Fortnite wouldn't have an
<v Speaker 2>entire Simpsons theme if the Simpsons was I feel that
<v Speaker 2>the Simpsons is coming back and voting again. I really
<v Speaker 2>feel like it's starting to sort of gain so momentum again.
<v Speaker 2>I think, as I was saying my theory with them,
<v Speaker 2>we're talking to very O'Leary, which I think the episode's
<v Speaker 2>out yet. But my theory is that the people who
<v Speaker 2>grew up with the Simpsons stopped watching the Simpsons, then
<v Speaker 2>got older, had kids, and are retroducing the Simpsons to
<v Speaker 2>their kids, and their kids are going, can we watch
<v Speaker 2>the new ones too? And everyone's going, let's just watch
<v Speaker 2>a new Simpsons again.
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying that the popularity of the full finger
<v Speaker 1>discount network has got anything to do with this. I
<v Speaker 1>am actually saying that, yeah, yeah, that's salmon to some money.
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, I definitely have nothing. It'd be a lot
<v Speaker 1>of fun even if it's terrible, Like, even if it
<v Speaker 1>sh still be fun to watch, right, I'll probably be
<v Speaker 1>like Elon Musk playing video games.
<v Speaker 2>So next one here. You guys recently spoke about zombie
<v Speaker 2>movies which Springfield location would make for the best hideout
<v Speaker 2>in a zombie apocalypse.
<v Speaker 1>Well, look, I'm a Share of the Dead fans, so
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna have to go with MOS because, like John
<v Speaker 1>of the Dead Ends, I am what's what's about MOS?
<v Speaker 1>It makes it safer for you though. It's got booze,
<v Speaker 1>it's got snacks, it's got tunes as long as the
<v Speaker 1>bombies can't get it. It's got amusements. I'm assument's got
<v Speaker 1>it's got a pool table, right, yes, yes it does.
<v Speaker 1>It's got a basement and let's not forget it's got
<v Speaker 1>the dank, the dank. It's got the love test, the
<v Speaker 1>love madic love madic Grandpa. Yeah, so you know, you
<v Speaker 1>find out who your compatible with to you know, repopulate
<v Speaker 1>the human race. Yeah, got all that stuff.
<v Speaker 2>I'm thinking more strategic. So I'm like, that's got a
<v Speaker 2>lot of good stuff that you would want in there.
<v Speaker 2>Probably the nuclear power plant. Would that be a It's
<v Speaker 2>pretty big and lots of places to hide zombies get in.
<v Speaker 2>It's like, well they're not can zombie? Can zombies climb
<v Speaker 2>in this movie? That's the thing? Or they just like
<v Speaker 2>what zombies will be talking about? We're talking about twenty
<v Speaker 2>six days later? Classic Romero zombies are just shamble? Are
<v Speaker 2>we talking about twenty eight days later?
<v Speaker 1>Runners? Are we talking about World War Z where they
<v Speaker 1>actually climb that big wall? Who knows? Like World War Z?
<v Speaker 2>If the zombies were like that, you're fucked right, like
<v Speaker 2>you can't. So there's so many many zam The powerlay
<v Speaker 2>would be a good place, I think, just because there's
<v Speaker 2>just so many places to hide and you can, like,
<v Speaker 2>you know, use the nuclear waste against them, correct, Yeah,
<v Speaker 2>burn their bodies and whatnot? Anything else any other places. Yeah,
<v Speaker 2>I was just trying to think of the Aztec Theater. Now,
<v Speaker 2>it wouldn't have got into there. No where to go,
<v Speaker 2>no to escape. There's gotta be a place that has
<v Speaker 2>a lot of a lot of exits. I think, because
<v Speaker 2>they get you need to be able to It can't
<v Speaker 2>be just be one exit and one entrance if they
<v Speaker 2>get in where you're getting out. So I feel like,
<v Speaker 2>you know, the power plant has a lot of difference, a.
<v Speaker 1>Lot you thought about the upcoming zombie a boggle, It's
<v Speaker 1>a lot. Also this Flanner's bomb shadow would be handy
<v Speaker 1>as well. Of course, Yes, all right, next one here.
<v Speaker 1>Al Jean recently announced he's leaving The Simpsons to work
<v Speaker 1>on a new show, which many believe could be a
<v Speaker 1>reboot of the critic What movies post two thousand would
<v Speaker 1>you guys like to hear Jay Sherman review? I'm wondering
<v Speaker 1>what you think Ja sherm would think of the mcum
<v Speaker 1>or the Star Wars prequels, not the not the New One,
<v Speaker 1>not Force Awakens, ilusial Ones, talking about, you know, Tack
<v Speaker 1>of the Clones. What do you make of Jarge our binks?
<v Speaker 1>I say, at Banks it rights itself. Guy surprised himself.
<v Speaker 1>I surprised myself with that guy, and I hope you
<v Speaker 1>were pleasantly surprised as well.
<v Speaker 2>I think it's funny with Star Wars because we got
<v Speaker 2>those sequels, people seem to look back fondly on the prequels.
<v Speaker 1>Now.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, it's almost like it's like A gave the prequels
<v Speaker 2>and out like it was, let's not as bad as
<v Speaker 2>them to went, But I went back and revisited them,
<v Speaker 2>and I went with best of intentions and I made
<v Speaker 2>it's just boring. They're no good. No, no, there's a
<v Speaker 2>good movie in those three. Yes, but there's too much filler.
<v Speaker 1>There's too much shit. Oh yeah, too much weird stuff.
<v Speaker 1>And now the wedsup is also good in a way
<v Speaker 1>because I mean you look at Force Awakens, Last Yedi
<v Speaker 1>and all that, and it's kind of like these are
<v Speaker 1>very commercial, and particularly Force Awakens, whereas yeah, you look
<v Speaker 1>at and a menacent Attack of the Clones and Avenge, like, yeah,
<v Speaker 1>this came out of the brain of a weird individual.
<v Speaker 1>One weird individual. It's one person's vision as opposed to
<v Speaker 1>what do you think Disney focus group. Yeah, that kind
<v Speaker 1>of thing.
<v Speaker 2>And I'm recently watching the Light and Magic documentary. Oh
<v Speaker 2>Jesney Place, it's great.
<v Speaker 1>I've heard it's very very good.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I many two episodes in, but it's interesting. I
<v Speaker 2>tested the Phantom Menace of Elliot. So he'sn't even watched
<v Speaker 2>New Hope, right, and I put Phantom Menace on someone.
<v Speaker 2>This isn't gonna spoil anything. That it's a prequel, you
<v Speaker 2>won't really know what's going on. I wanted to suttest
<v Speaker 2>what his thoughts were on the prequel, not knowing it's
<v Speaker 2>Star Wars, right. I didn't tell them with Star Wars.
<v Speaker 2>So I put it on and I skipped the opening
<v Speaker 2>croak and he'd know what Star Wars. And put it
<v Speaker 2>on and he goes, oh, that's what they're using Star Wars.
<v Speaker 2>I was using Lightsabers, and yeah, yeah's the same kind
<v Speaker 2>of thing. He's watching it. He's watching it. He's watching it,
<v Speaker 2>and I'm seeing as long as getting bored. He turns
<v Speaker 2>me and he goes, can we just watch Star Wars?
<v Speaker 1>Yes?
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So these movies don't feel like Star Wars. I'm like,
<v Speaker 2>when I remember when I was a kid, I had
<v Speaker 2>the same thing. I remember sitting there going, this doesn't
<v Speaker 2>feel like Star Wars.
<v Speaker 1>No, it feels like taxation on trips. This is old
<v Speaker 1>man talking about stuff that I don't understand. Yeah, or
<v Speaker 1>young child going, you be how or let's try spinning.
<v Speaker 1>That's a neat trick.
<v Speaker 2>The pod racing pod raising is great. It was great, right,
<v Speaker 2>so you get the pod racing aspect. Get something from
<v Speaker 2>attack raising.
<v Speaker 1>Duel between Qui Gon and Obi Wan and Dart Mall
<v Speaker 1>yeah pretty good.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, and the what's the music called duel? Fantastic? Yeah,
<v Speaker 2>probably the best thing from the entire prequel. John Williams cooking,
<v Speaker 2>Yes he is, indeed, so the prequels get a lot
<v Speaker 2>of love now compared to when they originally came out.
<v Speaker 2>The MCU, I think, is at a point now where
<v Speaker 2>people are ready to mock it. Yes, I think people
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't daren mock it when it was at its peak,
<v Speaker 2>it was like, no, it's making so much money. Everyone
<v Speaker 2>loves this. I think it's just it's been watered down
<v Speaker 2>and overstated. It's wuggling to the point where now I
<v Speaker 2>feel Jay Sherman would have a ball. That's just taking
<v Speaker 2>the mickey out of it. We're not taking out of
<v Speaker 2>the original MCU, but what it's become.
<v Speaker 1>Yes, post endgame.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, But what kind of other films do you think
<v Speaker 2>he would like to post two thousand?
<v Speaker 1>Jay Sherman, what do you mean, what do you think
<v Speaker 1>you'd like or what do you think you'd like to
<v Speaker 1>Teta shreds Scared, like disaster movie, just scared, the scary movies,
<v Speaker 1>those kind of movies. Oh yeah, like you'd hate like
<v Speaker 1>epic movie. Yeah, yeah, terrible. Yeah, what about just the
<v Speaker 1>disaster movies in general at the day or tomorrow?
<v Speaker 2>And no, I think he might have a bit of appreciation.
<v Speaker 2>But we don't get many disaster movies anymore though, do
<v Speaker 2>we No?
<v Speaker 1>Because we're living in one the films quickly that Jay
<v Speaker 1>Sherman would like to Who got to see Jay Sherman interview? Oh?
<v Speaker 1>Good question. I feel like he'd be really funny interviewing Sweeney.
<v Speaker 2>What's her name, Sydney Sweeney. I feel like him interviewing
<v Speaker 2>Sidney Sweeny would be kind of did you see her
<v Speaker 2>wearing her shower curtain the other day?
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't gonna say anything. But someone made a meme
<v Speaker 1>saying she's wearing her her oxygen tent to give her
<v Speaker 1>sexual powers. Sid what are your thoughts on the critic reboot?
<v Speaker 1>Interesting given that you know, the critic seems to be
<v Speaker 1>the thing of the past. I mean, it'd be interesting
<v Speaker 1>if he was sort of, you know, bumping up against influences.
<v Speaker 2>It's true, yeah, because the critics don't really exist anymore,
<v Speaker 2>do they.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I caught up with a good friend of mine
<v Speaker 1>last night who works as a entertainment writer in the States.
<v Speaker 1>She was out on a job. Yeah, we wastically just
<v Speaker 1>spent the whole meal and now time together just like
<v Speaker 1>there's no jobs, the whole way of life is ending.
<v Speaker 2>Basically, do a podcast with the real life Jay Sherman
<v Speaker 2>and Malton. I did mention that, yeah, and she was
<v Speaker 2>very impressed. So yeah, good good times we had.
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, there was a lot of talk of like,
<v Speaker 1>all these influences are coming along to you know, junkets
<v Speaker 1>and interviews, and they don't know a damn thing. What's
<v Speaker 1>his name from the bear? What's his name?
<v Speaker 2>That was in the past four even when he walked
<v Speaker 2>and said hello, influences, influences, what a legend. Right, that's
<v Speaker 2>not the best takedown ever. You just tell deep down
<v Speaker 2>he fucking hates them. Oh yeah, yeah, he would have
<v Speaker 2>no time for that ship. I feel like he's the
<v Speaker 2>kind of guy that would really respect like a Lendon
<v Speaker 2>Moulton respect that the old the old, the old guard. Yeah,
<v Speaker 2>ones who genuine respects.
<v Speaker 1>For questions, you know, not sort of questions actually oh
<v Speaker 1>you're a daddy, or you don't just want to go
<v Speaker 1>look at them, look at look where I am, look
<v Speaker 1>at you, and also making I'm asking you a gotcha
<v Speaker 1>question for the clip that's going to go.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, exactly, Yeah, genuine questions, genuine thought, genuine Yeah, everything
<v Speaker 2>just genuine. That's old school Dano, Yes, take me back,
<v Speaker 2>but yeah, a critic reab. I think it'll be interesting
<v Speaker 2>to see what how Jay Sherman is just surviving in
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty five.
<v Speaker 1>That's thinking you'd have a substack. Probably he probably had
<v Speaker 1>a YouTube channel.
<v Speaker 2>Like, yeah, yes, he would a YouTube channel. This show

<v Speaker 2>animated movie? That is an open question.
<v Speaker 1>It isn't it?
<v Speaker 2>You go first? My favorite animated movie of all time? Okay,
<v Speaker 2>so not only think it's the best movie, but can
<v Speaker 2>I say that Space Jam is an animated movie. It's
<v Speaker 2>got animation in it. Sure, I'm not going to say.
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna say Space Jam is one of my answers.
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna come at to you with another fully animated
<v Speaker 2>what's your answer for?
<v Speaker 1>I've got a few. I love Bradbirds stuff, Yeah, Giant,
<v Speaker 1>the Giant, Ratatu and particularly the Incredible Is Incredibles too
<v Speaker 1>is so good, so fantastic, the best Fantastic Four movie
<v Speaker 1>ever made? So I love those fantastic Mister Fox by
<v Speaker 1>Wes Anderson is stop motion animation. That counts, of course
<v Speaker 1>it does. That's indeed, And most recently there's a movie
<v Speaker 1>I love called Flow, which is now available on physical media.
<v Speaker 1>Go buy it. Cat It is that it's cat capa beera,
<v Speaker 1>a dog, and I think a lemur and maybe and
<v Speaker 1>a bird, and they're on a barge floating through this
<v Speaker 1>sort of semi submerged world like there's been maybe like
<v Speaker 1>a natural disaster or a climate change or something, and
<v Speaker 1>all these animals have to look out for one another.
<v Speaker 1>It is beautiful, Okay, I adore it there, pix. I
<v Speaker 1>do a lot of good shorts that are great. They do.
<v Speaker 1>There's one I like the one about the Ugly Volcano
<v Speaker 1>Finding Love. That's the fucking what I was there to
<v Speaker 1>tell you about. Yeah, how good is it? That's great?
<v Speaker 1>Holyh you cry when you watch it. Absolutely, that ugly
<v Speaker 1>volcano I Found Love. I'm so glad that you fucking
<v Speaker 1>said that one.
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, I don't know what it's. Corby's about volcanoes
<v Speaker 2>that goes under the water. He's trying to find his
<v Speaker 2>girlfriend and he's so good.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. There's another good one called Paperman. Have you ever
<v Speaker 1>seen No? It's sort of yeah. I think it's black
<v Speaker 1>and white. It's sort of like this guy's it's gonna
<v Speaker 1>sound weird, but it's like his heart sort of blows
<v Speaker 1>out of his body. But in the former, like a
<v Speaker 1>paper airplane or a little paper heart or something, and
<v Speaker 1>he's sort of chasing it all over town. It's I
<v Speaker 1>think i'm remember correctly, but it was really good. I
<v Speaker 1>enjoyed that one. Paper Man.
<v Speaker 2>Okay, there's one where a guy I'm pretty sure he
<v Speaker 2>doesn't speak. I think there's no talking at all. But
<v Speaker 2>it's about a guy who clearly has a child who
<v Speaker 2>is differently abled.
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I've you seen no one.
<v Speaker 2>He's pushing on the swing and I think at one
<v Speaker 2>point he just screams, why aren't you normal or something
<v Speaker 2>like that, and it's like, it's such a sweet story
<v Speaker 2>where it's it's showing the heartache and the stress and
<v Speaker 2>the pressures that these parents go through, not because of
<v Speaker 2>the difficulties of having to just you know, parent.
<v Speaker 1>Parents parents show, but also parenting.
<v Speaker 2>Plus it's also the perception of worrying about what others
<v Speaker 2>think and realizing you've got to stop caring about others things,
<v Speaker 2>worried about what your child thinks. And he said, yeah,
<v Speaker 2>it's a beautiful story coming up with that. One's called
<v Speaker 2>but that's worth watching as well. There are a lot
<v Speaker 2>of actually good animated movies in recent times that I
<v Speaker 2>probably wouldn't have watched if I didn't have kids. Luca
<v Speaker 2>is one, for example, great movie Luca Strange, who Strange
<v Speaker 2>World Strange, No, no strange, well no, no, no, sorry, the one
<v Speaker 2>that has They're all purple set mystical times. Oh god hoo,
<v Speaker 2>the purple movie recent Pixar films. It's got and it's
<v Speaker 2>got Chris Chris Pratt obviously is it like you? No, no,
<v Speaker 2>not like you Evans Chris Pratt, And Who's doa? It's
<v Speaker 2>onward Onward.
<v Speaker 1>That's the one. Really good.
<v Speaker 2>Julie The Drivers is the Mom I believe Chris Pratt
<v Speaker 2>and Tom Tom holand com holand yeah, I've Got Around.
<v Speaker 2>That's a really good movie as well. Basically, it's just, yeah,
<v Speaker 2>this guy who's trying to bring his he's never met
<v Speaker 2>his dad. His dad pass away when he was younger,
<v Speaker 2>so he was basically raised by his brother and his mum,
<v Speaker 2>and then they create this spell to bring his dad
<v Speaker 2>back to life. But something happens halfway through, so it's
<v Speaker 2>only his legs and they've only got till sundown to
<v Speaker 2>make the rest of his body arrive, and it's just
<v Speaker 2>only spoiled what happens. But it's it's great on is
<v Speaker 2>worth watching as well. It's not my favorite, but for
<v Speaker 2>me overall, Space Jam is one that always sticks out
<v Speaker 2>for me. The next question here says cricket season has
<v Speaker 2>started in Australia. Do you think the Simpsons should do
<v Speaker 2>a cricket episode because the Blue one is fantastic and
<v Speaker 2>my kids love it. I'm gonna let Dando field this
<v Speaker 2>question while I take a nap. Well, I think you
<v Speaker 2>really need to have a nap. I feel like the
<v Speaker 2>Simpsons could do us a cricket episode that appeals to
<v Speaker 2>people who don't watch cricket, people who do love cricket.
<v Speaker 2>Simpsons do so well. I think the story could be that,
<v Speaker 2>you know, maybe Homer is trying to learn how by
<v Speaker 2>trying to learn how to play cricket.
<v Speaker 1>Well, yes, because I discovered that it is one of
<v Speaker 1>them probably sports in the world. There's a word side
<v Speaker 1>of America and it ties into a question that we
<v Speaker 1>were also another question we were asked by someone else
<v Speaker 1>about the possibility of returning our pooge with the Simpsons. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>given his Indian background, yes he could be.
<v Speaker 2>Like the question someone wrote it in saying now who
<v Speaker 2>returns sort of in the treuse of horror. How would
<v Speaker 2>we genuinely reintroduce.
<v Speaker 1>Him back in? Yes, so a bit of a double
<v Speaker 1>whammy in terms of you have a cricket episode and
<v Speaker 1>you have who teaches them how to play cricket or
<v Speaker 1>becomes like a cricket mogul in America. It's like, all right,
<v Speaker 1>we've we've brought soccer to America. Now it's time to
<v Speaker 1>introduce cricket. And you know, we got all these people
<v Speaker 1>who like baseball or whatever. It's like you're trying to
<v Speaker 1>teach us here. Yeah. I think it's a good way,
<v Speaker 1>actually a really good idea. All right, well when we
<v Speaker 1>speak to our pal al Jean, which you're going to
<v Speaker 1>be doing soon. Too bad? He just left the sipisens.
<v Speaker 1>Oh has he? Oh he's taken a break from Simptons
<v Speaker 1>to do his news thing. Oh okay, of course.
<v Speaker 2>I thought he was doing double someone on speed. It's
<v Speaker 2>okayo cricket. There's no reason not to do that. That
<v Speaker 2>would be fantastic, right, I think. So, Well, here's the thing,
<v Speaker 2>because you're dinn't get a genuine India and Indian voice
<v Speaker 2>acted to come in it make it a big bang.
<v Speaker 2>So many Indian viewers like people in India would love
<v Speaker 2>that episode.
<v Speaker 1>Because well, Disney Plus in India is paid with is
<v Speaker 1>it hot Star? I'm not sure, but it's it's like
<v Speaker 1>apparently the only way that you can sort of watch
<v Speaker 1>cricket in India by Disney Plus. Can you imagine the
<v Speaker 1>popular the publicity.
<v Speaker 2>Again the crossover. Pooh has returned his new voice actor.
<v Speaker 2>It's in India. It's let's make this happen.
<v Speaker 1>The other week I mentioned the project that I was
<v Speaker 1>working and I said, copyright sart. Okay, so he's saying
<v Speaker 1>copyright Salmon. So we're watching you. We're watching you. I'm
<v Speaker 1>watching my camera. And also that.
<v Speaker 2>One, bring a poo back, have a have a cricket episode,
<v Speaker 2>send us the paycheck.
<v Speaker 1>We we want a piece of the action. We'll write
<v Speaker 1>it for you. Yeah, man, there we go. We just
<v Speaker 1>joined us and then and then you can rewrite it
<v Speaker 1>and we'll do the first drap. But that's what I
<v Speaker 1>think it would actually work. Yeah, yeah, but cricket. I
<v Speaker 1>don't find cricket that interesting. That's but for a paycheck.
<v Speaker 1>If there's a steady paycheck, and I'll write I'll like
<v Speaker 1>anything you see. Fine.
<v Speaker 2>Fact, So I videotaped Elliott. He bowls created balls all
<v Speaker 2>the time at the school. Basically sets up his biggest
<v Speaker 2>in the backyard, bowls creey ball, knocks him over, go
<v Speaker 2>set him up, goes back, bowls him again. I usually
<v Speaker 2>bat for him, like I'll bat, but if I can't
<v Speaker 2>bother batting, he just bowls by himself. I'll put it
<v Speaker 2>out on Twitter and I wrote the following and I said,
<v Speaker 2>proud dad moment. My seven year old spends hours at
<v Speaker 2>the school each day practicing his cricket bowling technique. When
<v Speaker 2>I can't bat, he simply bowls at the stump, steps
<v Speaker 2>him back up and goes again. And I wrote, Hey,
<v Speaker 2>at Beastie Woo seven, who is my man?
<v Speaker 1>Barrett? The commentator on is the Indian?
<v Speaker 2>He's like the he's like the Indian commentator for Australia. Oh,
<v Speaker 2>he's like, ow what do you call him? He's the
<v Speaker 2>Indian rep.
<v Speaker 1>Was there an episode of like Australian Story about him? Well?
<v Speaker 2>Probably yes, yeah, yeah, he's ABC, yeah, ABC Sports. He's
<v Speaker 2>everywhere right and he's coming on the show.
<v Speaker 1>So I tagged you.
<v Speaker 2>I said, Elliot Danner, remember that name? And he retweeted
<v Speaker 2>it that video onto his one hundred thousand plus followers,
<v Speaker 2>and he said, love this so much for finger Pod
<v Speaker 2>already marking that name down Elliot Dando future superstar. Love
<v Speaker 2>his passion. And then he followed us and I was like, hey,
<v Speaker 2>do you want to come on the show, and he's like, cool,
<v Speaker 2>let's do it.
<v Speaker 1>So he's gonna be coming on the podcast. This is
<v Speaker 1>all working out, Yeah, it is indeed. Yeah, so now
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna have come up with something bet cricket.
<v Speaker 2>Well, maybe we can pitch that idea to it. I
<v Speaker 2>think so maybe he could be the voice of a poop.
<v Speaker 1>We're moving into being agents as well. Anyway, Yeah, that
<v Speaker 1>would be a great episode. Who as the as the said,
<v Speaker 1>the mogul of cricket in America. That would be cool.
<v Speaker 1>And then he maybe he.
<v Speaker 2>Puts together he puts together a rag tag See this
<v Speaker 2>is the thing is how you get the biggest names.
<v Speaker 2>So you get the biggest names in Critolod, Veric Coley
<v Speaker 2>and whatnot. Right, he gets a rag tag team of
<v Speaker 2>cricketers put together and they're going they to it India.
<v Speaker 2>Who takes them to India to meet his the team
<v Speaker 2>he used to play with when he was younger?
<v Speaker 1>Correct?
<v Speaker 2>And then you introduce all the various big cricker starts
<v Speaker 2>of the world in the IPL mate right itself. So
<v Speaker 2>many viewers for the episode A couple we haven't done
<v Speaker 2>it already. Anyway, when that does happen, we want all
<v Speaker 2>the credit.
<v Speaker 1>As we said, A couple more questions here and we
<v Speaker 1>will wrap this one up. This is a good question.
<v Speaker 1>I like this.
<v Speaker 2>One person said, what is your idea of Friday night
<v Speaker 2>three hour block of TV? What shows and why? Okay,
<v Speaker 2>then so Friday Night just it's it's no no, let's go.
<v Speaker 2>What year we picking Friday Night? I first A young
<v Speaker 2>years been in the stoge.
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, I think so. Yeah, Friday Night.
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to say two thousand and one. For me,
<v Speaker 2>Friday Night one.
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to say mid to late eighties, eighty five
<v Speaker 1>or eighty six. That's your peak. Friday night pizza has
<v Speaker 1>just been delivered, bottle of pepsi, pizza cold, pretty much
<v Speaker 1>a couple of a couple of drum sticks in the
<v Speaker 1>in the freezer as in ice creams. Feel He's like,
<v Speaker 1>what are you or a cornetto Yes. Indeed, Now my
<v Speaker 1>first answer to this kind of messes with the timeline
<v Speaker 1>because it didn't come out until the either late nineties
<v Speaker 1>or early two thousands, but.
<v Speaker 2>Ninety four then because then you can corporate shows. Early
<v Speaker 2>nineties there.
<v Speaker 1>Three hour block. I want the entire first season of
<v Speaker 1>a show called Garth Maringhi's Dark Place. Have you ever
<v Speaker 1>heard of this? The entire first season. It's an English show,
<v Speaker 1>six episodes half an hour each. That's three Well there's
<v Speaker 1>your three hour block. That's three hours. That's what I'm saying. Oh,
<v Speaker 1>that's all you did watch? Yeah, I'd watch the whole season.
<v Speaker 1>Only made one season. It's one of the funniest shows ever.
<v Speaker 1>What's it good? Garth Maringhi's Dark Place. He's like, he's
<v Speaker 1>like the Stephen King knockoff from England and he's like,
<v Speaker 1>I wrote, directed, and starred in this show that was
<v Speaker 1>so crazy that the network wouldn't show it, but now
<v Speaker 1>they're going to have to. And it's like this terrible
<v Speaker 1>supernatural thriller made for like five cents, set in a hospital.
<v Speaker 1>It's it's on YouTube. You can find it all on
<v Speaker 1>YouTube by a physical copy if you can, though, because
<v Speaker 1>it deserves to be supported. But it's so funny and
<v Speaker 1>I would happily just watch that for three hours on
<v Speaker 1>a Friday night, or if we're going back to nineteen
<v Speaker 1>eighty five, it's been ninety four and he's getting shows
<v Speaker 1>for I realize that is great, or because it's the
<v Speaker 1>garth RINGIY Darklaight the show with the show does feel
<v Speaker 1>like it was made in like nineteen eighty five, or
<v Speaker 1>it's not ninety five? Got my caprichosa? No anchovies? Do
<v Speaker 1>we have coke zero on that diet coke maps? Ye die?
<v Speaker 1>Because I've got swimsuit season and I'm settling on the
<v Speaker 1>couch to watch. We're starting with a block of two
<v Speaker 1>half hour sitcoms, episode of Golden Girls, episode of Cheers,
<v Speaker 1>followed by an episode of either Moonlighting or Miami Bise,
<v Speaker 1>and dropping it off with a repeat of one of
<v Speaker 1>my favorite private eye shows from the nineteen seventies, The
<v Speaker 1>Rockford Files. What is the Rofford Files about? He's just
<v Speaker 1>this sort of low rent private eye who who is
<v Speaker 1>good and noble, but I can't really catch a break.
<v Speaker 1>So you've got sitcoms in there. You've got got sitcom
<v Speaker 1>I've got a romantic comedy or a hard hitting cop
<v Speaker 1>show and a po show that's just you know, got
<v Speaker 1>that great sort of lived in seventies and beyond.
<v Speaker 2>I feel like I'm very My early years were very
<v Speaker 2>much sick comedy based. So I'm going to go with
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to pick a Simpsons around since it was
<v Speaker 2>like Springfield File or something that one of my favorite episodes.
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to throw an episode of two Guys Are
<v Speaker 2>Going a Pizza Place. I've always loved that show. You know,
<v Speaker 2>you just have that shows he just loves just always
<v Speaker 2>loved them. The Nanny, I've always loved them Nanny, Third
<v Speaker 2>Off from the Sun, the show that I feel like
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't get enough support. I think, what's his name?
<v Speaker 2>While Dick solon, what's his name?
<v Speaker 1>John? Fuck?
<v Speaker 2>He's great in that show, earlier show Joseph Gottlevit as well,
<v Speaker 2>So the third Rock, The Nanny, two Guys going to
<v Speaker 2>Pizza Place? A Simpsons probably gonna throw a sign felt in.
<v Speaker 1>There as well.
<v Speaker 2>And what would be one last sitcom to round out
<v Speaker 2>the three hour block of just sitcom goodness. I'm not
<v Speaker 2>gonna say friends, I'm gonna say the Drew Carey Show.
<v Speaker 1>Oh okay, wow, He's just keep on coming. That's a
<v Speaker 1>positive line up.
<v Speaker 2>I remember when I was a kid, it was like
<v Speaker 2>sitcoms all night, and I was like, I'm set.
<v Speaker 1>That's all I need.
<v Speaker 2>I just need the sitcoms man. And there's an ad
<v Speaker 2>for a sitcom at the moment that always pops up
<v Speaker 2>on HBO Max. It's like some hillbilly guy and he's
<v Speaker 2>got like a hot wife. I don't it always pops
<v Speaker 2>up with watching HBO Max. I think it's starting at
<v Speaker 2>second season or something, but you can just tell it's
<v Speaker 2>one of those shows that's just filmed and then they
<v Speaker 2>not in front of an audience and there's add in
<v Speaker 2>the can laughter. I'm like, I'm because Alice's been watching
<v Speaker 2>Fresh Prints and by season five, it's almost like they've
<v Speaker 2>just broken the fourth wall and they often go into
<v Speaker 2>the audience and they're like interacting with the audience, given
<v Speaker 2>high five and go back into the show. It's like
<v Speaker 2>the show's just experimental at this point, right, But I'm like,
<v Speaker 2>I miss that element of people been going and watching
<v Speaker 2>this show, Like they need to bring that back where
<v Speaker 2>people can go to the studio and watch. Yeah, I
<v Speaker 2>know you and ever a fan of sitcoms are oh,
<v Speaker 2>I like I'm fine, Yeah, I lot if there was
<v Speaker 2>a sitcom that filmed in we can just go watch
<v Speaker 2>the last episode of the sitcom.
<v Speaker 1>I feel we're missing that the kink. Okay, well, once
<v Speaker 1>we cash in from this cricket the Simpsons that we're
<v Speaker 1>we will will take that and we'll use of the
<v Speaker 1>seed money to start around. Yeah, so I'd have a
<v Speaker 1>Friday night Surreyama and Ed Cavill yes from Raileary because
<v Speaker 1>why not?
<v Speaker 2>And and Daniel Connell. Did either of you guys see?
<v Speaker 2>This year's World Series Game seven was one of the
<v Speaker 2>greatest games of all time. Even if you're not a
<v Speaker 2>baseball fan, I recommend checking out the highlights. It was
<v Speaker 2>like watching a movie.
<v Speaker 1>I'm hearing a lot about it, and whoever asked this
<v Speaker 1>question is really selling it. Yeah.
<v Speaker 2>I watched the highlights Game seven and it was a
<v Speaker 2>fucking movie.
<v Speaker 1>It was incredible.
<v Speaker 2>So you got so incredible that so you got ali
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers are going for the first back to back title
<v Speaker 2>win in like twenty five years.
<v Speaker 1>Wow.
<v Speaker 2>They're playing the Toronto Blue Jays, right, who haven't won
<v Speaker 2>a title in thirty plus years. So it's the underdog
<v Speaker 2>versus the reigning champ. R raining Champ has gone to
<v Speaker 2>the underdog's home ground. It has nine innings in a
<v Speaker 2>baseball game. Yes, you just get on top.
<v Speaker 1>Four to two.
<v Speaker 2>Blue Jays then fuck up and they like they let
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers catch up. It's four to four, ninth innings.
<v Speaker 1>Tell me more. Bases are loaded. What it's the home ground.
<v Speaker 1>Bases are loaded. The guy smacks it, it's going home.
<v Speaker 1>It's going home to La Dodgers. Guys collide on on
<v Speaker 1>the fence. One of them fucking catches the ball. We're
<v Speaker 1>going into extra innings. I won't tell what happens after that.
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna have to get on YouTube. Literally, two guys
<v Speaker 1>are going for the ball, don't see each other. One
<v Speaker 1>gets fucking absolutely polite, puts it, just catches it. Just
<v Speaker 1>he's out. Bases were loaded. They would have won the
<v Speaker 1>game if he hadn't caught it. But he caught it.
<v Speaker 1>We're going into extra innings. Love it. It's unbelievable. That's great.
<v Speaker 1>It's so good. It's honestly seeing these guys and he
<v Speaker 1>just puts his arm up, this hopeless and this lands
<v Speaker 1>in his glass. Cricket, if you I can show you
<v Speaker 1>a cricket game that I feel like, if you just
<v Speaker 1>watched the highlights real because you don't want watch the
<v Speaker 1>long drawn out version of it, just the highlights reel
<v Speaker 1>of the cricket fans out there. It is the boxing
<v Speaker 1>day test from last year. Day five. All INDI had
<v Speaker 1>to do just stay in called a drawer. Australia, you
<v Speaker 1>can't win the series because they were just ending to
<v Speaker 1>draw the series, right, and then there's plane. It's blocking
<v Speaker 1>and block and blocking, and then one Indian.
<v Speaker 2>Guy just goes, ah, fuck it and he tries to
<v Speaker 2>hit a six and he hits a catch and then
<v Speaker 2>all of a sudden they're just like, okay, there they're
<v Speaker 2>five out. And then the guy comes in and just
<v Speaker 2>like mix it straight away for like two runs, and
<v Speaker 2>you get to it and it's like now there's six out,
<v Speaker 2>and all of a sudden, Australia is like we can
<v Speaker 2>get it. And I won't tell you what happens next,
<v Speaker 2>but it's like in the space of ninety minutes, it's
<v Speaker 2>such tease. But the thing is I was there with
<v Speaker 2>Elliott and I remember at that moment, I'm going we
<v Speaker 2>can still win this. I go on, Elliott, we're not
<v Speaker 2>gonna win it. May I said, They're just playing for
<v Speaker 2>a drawer. It's just I mean, just let's just enjoy
<v Speaker 2>being here. And then one goes out. He looks at
<v Speaker 2>me and he goes you were saying. I was like, mate,
<v Speaker 2>there's still five to get. There's only like ninety minutes left.
<v Speaker 2>That's not gonna happen. And another one gets out and
<v Speaker 2>he's just like, I told you there's a chance, and
<v Speaker 2>I was like, there's actually a funny chance. And then
<v Speaker 2>and then as each wicket dropped, it was like it
<v Speaker 2>was like theater, mate. So if you understand the rule,
<v Speaker 2>it was incredible. Day five of the Boxing Day Test
<v Speaker 2>last year, look at up Australia versus India at the mcg.
<v Speaker 1>Well to call it the monkeys. I'm a believer, but
<v Speaker 1>that Game seven though, Fuck me holy, I'll check that out.

<v Speaker 2>always faces for Patty, and it's just really nice seeing Patty.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah try to it's what she feels. She feels something
<v Speaker 2>for this guy, but it's almost like she's Patty as well.
<v Speaker 2>She's very closed off. Yeah, she's closed off, she's shut down.
<v Speaker 2>She doesn't like to sort of show affection. But Principal
<v Speaker 2>Skinner has been infatuated with Patty. It's just a really
<v Speaker 2>nice Principal Skinner story as well.

<v Speaker 1>think anything from season three, Hugh, isn't it? Yeah? I

<v Speaker 1>with brad Bird, I'm pretty was the last episode brad
<v Speaker 1>Bird worked on, Give me such and such because he
<v Speaker 1>left the Simpsons pretty early. He did across the episode
<v Speaker 1>which crossed the brad Bird well, his name's on this one.
