Postcards From The Wedge (S21E14)

<v Speaker 1>Mister, you are grounded and no TV can take you
<v Speaker 1>all the exciting colors out of your crayons. When you're
<v Speaker 1>out of my sight, you must constantly twitter me exactly
<v Speaker 1>what you're up to, even though I don't know what
<v Speaker 1>Twitter is and have no desire to find out.
<v Speaker 2>You guys are the meanest appearents ever.
<v Speaker 1>Thank you.
<v Speaker 2>Four Finger Discount dude.
<v Speaker 3>Welcome to four Finger Discount. With this week, we're gonna
<v Speaker 3>be sending some podcasts, some podcasts from the Wedge.
<v Speaker 1>Are we in the Wedge?
<v Speaker 3>Where are we anyway? I'm Danda.
<v Speaker 1>Wow, that's some fun wordplay there. Yeah, I am guy.
<v Speaker 1>By the way, Yes, Postcards from the Wedge?
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, what's that a play on? I didn't do any
<v Speaker 3>research on the title of this episode, did you know what?
<v Speaker 3>I thought? That's gonna be your new bit. You can
<v Speaker 3>tell us what the title is? A spin on podcast
<v Speaker 3>from the Wedge? What's that I spin on?
<v Speaker 1>Well? This this requires me to do homework. How funny
<v Speaker 1>that this episode is about that, and I would like that.
<v Speaker 1>I would rather not do one much. But Postcards from
<v Speaker 1>the Edge is the first book by Carrie Fisher. Oh really, yeah.
<v Speaker 3>She's on the edge of insanity. Most she entered Hollywood.
<v Speaker 1>Right pretty much. Well, yeah, she was born into a
<v Speaker 1>show his family, and I started acting from a fairly
<v Speaker 1>young age. Even before she was Friendcess Lage. She'd been
<v Speaker 1>in a few movies and things like that.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think it wasn't Hamble the only real unknown
<v Speaker 3>going into the main cast.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think even Hamill was sort of on the
<v Speaker 1>on the rise as well. I mean, Harrison Ford wasn't
<v Speaker 1>even that well known. He'd been in a few movies
<v Speaker 1>and he'd been an American graffiti for George Luke. That's
<v Speaker 1>the one, I mean, really a star parent that was
<v Speaker 1>Alec Guinness. Yeah, I mean that's that's the one that
<v Speaker 1>gave star was a bit of credibility, but no. Postcards
<v Speaker 1>from the Edge was Carrie Fisher's first novel, as very
<v Speaker 1>sort of thinly veiled story of her life and her
<v Speaker 1>sort of career in show because it's about a young
<v Speaker 1>young actress in Hollywood sort of navigating her professonal professional life.
<v Speaker 1>She's sort of in and out of rehab. She's flirting
<v Speaker 1>with flirting with drugs, heavy petting with a drug show,
<v Speaker 1>we say, but yeah, it gave a lot of people
<v Speaker 1>in indications like, oh, we thought she were just Princess Leia,
<v Speaker 1>But you know Carrie Fisher, as I think we've alluded
<v Speaker 1>to on we might have talked about this with Lennond
<v Speaker 1>Moulton on the Movie Guide with Malton Davis how she
<v Speaker 1>was a really successful script doctor for Ages and then
<v Speaker 1>she wrote her own scripts. But she also if a
<v Speaker 1>production needed like this could use four funnier lines, or
<v Speaker 1>this character is a little undeveloped, they'd go to Carrie Fisher.
<v Speaker 1>And she was a really good writer to be able
<v Speaker 1>to punch it up. So she published a few more books,
<v Speaker 1>but Postcards from the Edge was her first one, just
<v Speaker 1>before or after Star Wars. It was after Star Wars.
<v Speaker 1>I think it was the late eighties early nineties. I
<v Speaker 1>remember having a copy back in the day and look,
<v Speaker 1>there's pretty good.
<v Speaker 3>Look it up. So what does that title have to
<v Speaker 3>do with this episode? What does because usually the title
<v Speaker 3>is a spit on something that can relate what was
<v Speaker 3>they talk about the wedge issue in this though, Ah,
<v Speaker 3>the wedge of the parents. There you go, well done, sir,
<v Speaker 3>there we go.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And Postcast the Edge was actually made into a
<v Speaker 1>movie with Meryl Streep, Shili McLain I've seen that post
<v Speaker 1>and now you're talking about yeahs quades and there Gene Hackman,
<v Speaker 1>Richard Dreyfus, and the benning is Dreyfus.
<v Speaker 3>I've always said Dryfus could.
<v Speaker 1>Be either could be potato potato. Wait a minute, no one.
<v Speaker 3>Says potato except who the songwriters who are trying to
<v Speaker 3>rhyme the word or through.
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, Postcards from the Edge is yeah, Kerry Fisher
<v Speaker 1>Joint Posts from the Widge. Is this episode of The Simpsons, Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>which I enjoyed more.
<v Speaker 3>Than last week. Really, I didn't like cal Yoh at all.
<v Speaker 3>I know you did not. Yeah, I enjoyed this one
<v Speaker 3>a lot more. I think it's because I am going
<v Speaker 3>through what not going through what they're going through. Because
<v Speaker 3>my kids don't go out of their way to manipulate,
<v Speaker 3>but they're at that point now where they getting old
<v Speaker 3>enough my kids where if they get announced that they
<v Speaker 3>don't like, they'll just go to the other parent and
<v Speaker 3>not go, well Dad said this. They'll just go and say,
<v Speaker 3>I'll just see what the other one says. And because
<v Speaker 3>if one of them says okay, then we're good. Yeah,
<v Speaker 3>but they won't say Dad said no, But what do
<v Speaker 3>you reckon, it's just okay, well dad said no, Let's
<v Speaker 3>see what mom says, and Nichola says, okay, Nick supposed
<v Speaker 3>about me out because I didn't know you'd already said no,
<v Speaker 3>And they're like, well, what is it, guys?
<v Speaker 1>This is something I wanted to talk about with you, because, yeah,
<v Speaker 1>you're coming live from the trenches of parenthood.
<v Speaker 3>Which is why I think I relate a lot more
<v Speaker 3>to this.
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely, But hey, I'm wondering if you and Nichola have
<v Speaker 1>to sort of sit there before, even before you had kids,
<v Speaker 1>sort of had to go right, what's our game plan here?
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I know you have to approach everything on
<v Speaker 1>a case by case basis. That's life, that's parenthood. But yeah,
<v Speaker 1>if there are certain big issues that come up, or
<v Speaker 1>certain big issues that knew were going to happen when
<v Speaker 1>you had kids, when you had Elliot, when you had
<v Speaker 1>only it's like, okay, look, we have to be a
<v Speaker 1>united front on this issue. This is the way we're
<v Speaker 1>going to take it, even if it may sort of
<v Speaker 1>run counter to the way you would normally think about something.
<v Speaker 1>It's like, Nicola may have a strong stance on homework,
<v Speaker 1>for instance, using this and you mean I'm like, look,
<v Speaker 1>it's overrated. I don't know what you mean. It's like, Okay,
<v Speaker 1>we have to have a united brun and this has
<v Speaker 1>to be our position. Yeah, I'm wondering if that's the case.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how other couples do it. But we
<v Speaker 1>never really sat down and had a discussion about things
<v Speaker 1>like that. But before kids, it was just a lot
<v Speaker 1>of parents don't before.
<v Speaker 3>You had kids. This is us in general. Before we
<v Speaker 3>had kids, you just you got along because you just
<v Speaker 3>you got along. There's a reason you were married because
<v Speaker 3>you were friends. And that's what having kids. We've had
<v Speaker 3>a conversation since even much just like six months ago,
<v Speaker 3>is you need to remember why you're married together in
<v Speaker 3>the first place, because it's almost like to become work
<v Speaker 3>colleagues as opposed to best friends because you're working at
<v Speaker 3>it's like you watch the kids, why exercising, it's always
<v Speaker 3>like you're chopping each other out. And then my parents
<v Speaker 3>God Blessing took the kids for their first little mini
<v Speaker 3>holiday away this week just to their their house. They
<v Speaker 3>took the kids for four I think it was four nights,
<v Speaker 3>three three days, four nights, whatever it was, and we
<v Speaker 3>didn't know what to do with that. It got to
<v Speaker 3>like Saturday in the morning and we went, what are
<v Speaker 3>we going to do? Are the kids on here?
<v Speaker 1>Oh?
<v Speaker 3>Oh, this is what it was like when we could
<v Speaker 3>just and like we said, we said to each other,
<v Speaker 3>it's not that we don't want them here, but it
<v Speaker 3>was just nice to be able to just do something
<v Speaker 3>without having to worry about, of course what they're doing,
<v Speaker 3>you know, and it was just having time and we
<v Speaker 3>sort of remembered, oh, this is why we're married in
<v Speaker 3>the first time.
<v Speaker 1>Went back to the old normal as opposed to the
<v Speaker 1>new norm. Yeah. There's a great line in the movie
<v Speaker 1>Before Sunset, you know those ones with Ethan Hawk. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>where I think Ethan Hawk is going through a separation
<v Speaker 1>from his wife with whom he has kids, and he
<v Speaker 1>and kind of in the weeds about it, and he says, yeah,
<v Speaker 1>it's like running a daycare center with someone who used
<v Speaker 1>to date.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it gets that way. Sometimes you get better at it.
<v Speaker 3>When it was when we struggled for a bit, when
<v Speaker 3>Holly was starting to talk a lot more and just
<v Speaker 3>sort of batchat she was more rebellious than Alliott. I
<v Speaker 3>wouldn't call my kids naughty, but they just you know,
<v Speaker 3>if they didn't get what they wanted, they would react
<v Speaker 3>in a way that most kids would just react to,
<v Speaker 3>what do you mean? I want to get what I want?
<v Speaker 3>They didn't go oh, like Bart does this episode, I'm
<v Speaker 3>gonna plant these seeds and manipulate and things. That's just
<v Speaker 3>why am I not getting what I want? And then
<v Speaker 3>you get angry and I find myself sometimes I ask myself,
<v Speaker 3>am I being a good father? Am I being a
<v Speaker 3>good person? I feel like that sometimes their behavior brings
<v Speaker 3>out the worst in me. Oh, I understand, and that's
<v Speaker 3>why I watching this seeing Homer going, you go do
<v Speaker 3>your homework, and then Marge's like, you know you do this?
<v Speaker 3>You feel sorry. Sometimes I find Nikola and I Nichola
<v Speaker 3>will be struggling to get them to do it. They're todd,
<v Speaker 3>get your pjs on, do this, and they're just taking
<v Speaker 3>the piss, taking the piss, and Nicholas just come on now,
<v Speaker 3>and I just go put your fucking pjs on, like
<v Speaker 3>where the bosses, and Nicola goes, Dad didn't mean to
<v Speaker 3>get I'm like, don't, no, no, no, And that's where
<v Speaker 3>the frustration for us will start stemming from us, like
<v Speaker 3>you weren't getting they weren't listening to you. I laid
<v Speaker 3>the I put my foot down. Yeah, we've got an object.
<v Speaker 3>And then it was I almost felt like, don't make
<v Speaker 3>them feel bad because they got youlled at it. They
<v Speaker 3>weren't doing what they were told, which is what I
<v Speaker 3>watched Homer in this episode. A lot of the cases
<v Speaker 3>like do your homework, and for the first time home
<v Speaker 3>is actually trying to be a good parents. You told
<v Speaker 3>you have to do your homework, you might just like
<v Speaker 3>just do a little bit, just do a little bit.
<v Speaker 3>I was like, I'll be there.
<v Speaker 1>Okay, okay. Look that brings a lot of stuff into
<v Speaker 1>focus for me, or clarifies a lot, because you look,
<v Speaker 1>I just start a parent, don't have kids, haven't had
<v Speaker 1>to sort of go through an of this stuff. I
<v Speaker 1>was watching a lot of this episode. This should be
<v Speaker 1>a lot easier than it is, but no, it can
<v Speaker 1>be quite difficult when you've got two people with two
<v Speaker 1>different personalities, two different approaches, not necessarily different approaches everything,
<v Speaker 1>but certainly to one issue, this wedge issue. Yeah, in
<v Speaker 1>this case, it can cause a bit of a bit
<v Speaker 1>of a divide.
<v Speaker 3>It was funny for me last night watching these reviews
<v Speaker 3>to do these reviews that we're doing today because we
<v Speaker 3>actually recording the next episode as well, back to back
<v Speaker 3>here next week one, which is stealing first base. It is,
<v Speaker 3>but I'm watching this going I don't think I would
<v Speaker 3>have liked these episodes ten years ago, and I compared
<v Speaker 3>it to I've been watching the Beatles Anthology mentioned it
<v Speaker 3>recently on her podcast, and I love the Beatles growing up,
<v Speaker 3>and then I loved Lennon's I loved his solo stuff.
<v Speaker 3>But there are a lot of songs where I was
<v Speaker 3>just like, they're good songs. And the older I got,
<v Speaker 3>he got married, starting having kids, songs like just like
<v Speaker 3>starting over, Yeah, beautiful Boy, all those songs, I was like, oh,
<v Speaker 3>I get them now. I like to the Maladies, but
<v Speaker 3>now I understand the songs. And I was like, I
<v Speaker 3>think about a point in my life now where Lennon was,
<v Speaker 3>and that point in his life where he's writing things
<v Speaker 3>that related to him as a late thirty year old,
<v Speaker 3>and now I'm in my late thirties, I'm like, oh,
<v Speaker 3>I get these songs. These episodes here, I feel like
<v Speaker 3>I'm going through what the writers might have been going
<v Speaker 3>through as they were writing these episodes, which is why
<v Speaker 3>I think I relate to them a lot more than
<v Speaker 3>maybe what you do.
<v Speaker 1>At this point. Well, I'm glad you're hear that, yeah,
<v Speaker 1>because you probably got more to say about this particular
<v Speaker 1>episode than I did, which I thought was eh, okay.
<v Speaker 1>I mean I think I was approaching it more from
<v Speaker 1>a just entertaining Is this an entertaining episode? And it
<v Speaker 1>is in some ways, but in other ways it is.
<v Speaker 1>I think that was Actually I think I've written down
<v Speaker 1>fucking down an episode. Man. Yeah, Okay.
<v Speaker 3>There was a subplot here that I feel like could
<v Speaker 3>have been its own episode, probably should have been its
<v Speaker 3>own episode, the Springfield Subway. There is so much to
<v Speaker 3>do with that, and it became just sort of this
<v Speaker 3>mini subplot of how Bark caused an earthquake. But I
<v Speaker 3>was like, there's a Springfield Subway. That's a whole new
<v Speaker 3>world to base episodes around, Like have the episode. I
<v Speaker 3>know you've had mar Dresses the monorail, but I think Springfield,
<v Speaker 3>for whatever reason, they needed to having to reopen the
<v Speaker 3>Springfield Subway and it just remaining open. I think would
<v Speaker 3>be a fun new show, adventure and world for them
<v Speaker 3>to base episodes. Just for example, I'm thinking playing Simpsons
<v Speaker 3>Hit and Run. I know why my brain went there
<v Speaker 3>when I was watching this episode in Simpsons Hit and Run.
<v Speaker 3>I think it would have been so cool to jump
<v Speaker 3>on the Springfield Subway and drive around like I just
<v Speaker 3>think there's so many things you could have done based
<v Speaker 3>in the Springfield Subway, could have become a new beloved location.
<v Speaker 3>But it's just sort of fobbed off.
<v Speaker 1>I'm wagering when they never gonna hear from it again.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, exactly right, And that's a shame, I think. I
<v Speaker 3>think it's I think it's a really interesting location.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, no, you're not wrong, You're not wrong. I mean,
<v Speaker 1>sorry to jump ahead to favorite moments were. One of
<v Speaker 1>the things that I really liked about this episode was
<v Speaker 1>that opening animation, that whole Springfield or Tomorrow thing, and
<v Speaker 1>you know, showing that Springfield was indeed a city on
<v Speaker 1>the grow at some stage, and it's like, yeah, I
<v Speaker 1>like the idea of it being, yeah, a city that's
<v Speaker 1>got this whole kind of infrastructure and we're in Geelong,
<v Speaker 1>the Springfield of Australia. It's like, I remember we used
<v Speaker 1>to have DRAMs and stuff like that, oh way way
<v Speaker 1>way back in the day. And I think when you
<v Speaker 1>have your hometown. You sort of look at it and go,
<v Speaker 1>there's so much potential here. Why are we following through
<v Speaker 1>on that march versus the monorail.
<v Speaker 3>To me, the difference would be that the monorael felt
<v Speaker 3>unnecessary and it was clearly a scam from the get go. Right,
<v Speaker 3>the Springfield monrorael and a subway must have worked at
<v Speaker 3>some point, sure, and then as decided we didn't need
<v Speaker 3>to Yeah, man, but had it going quickly?
<v Speaker 1>Exactly? What do I always say? We used to build
<v Speaker 1>things in this kind of It looked really beautiful. Yes,
<v Speaker 1>even Bard comments look at that iron work.
<v Speaker 3>That's what I'm saying, Like this location would have been
<v Speaker 3>so beautiful to see up and running you maybe, hey,
<v Speaker 3>Al Jean Matt Salmon, Simpsons movie, bring Back the Springfield Subway?
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, man, we spoke recently. Come on, you're clearly listening
<v Speaker 1>to it. I want to get your thoughts on homework. Yeah.
<v Speaker 1>Do the kids have homework? Not yet?
<v Speaker 3>The only homework they have at the moment is, you know,
<v Speaker 3>do some reading, not do an assignment on this?
<v Speaker 1>Not yet?
<v Speaker 3>Is any grade grade too? I think grade three is
<v Speaker 3>when it really starts kicking into gain.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I was just thinking about diorramas. I think I
<v Speaker 1>never had to make a diorhama for a homework or
<v Speaker 1>anything like that. But I remember back in like grade six,
<v Speaker 1>we had some project was basically like make a plaster
<v Speaker 1>of Paris map of Australia or something.
<v Speaker 3>Okay, we have got make volcanoes and things like that. Yeah,
<v Speaker 3>Machet like, it's.
<v Speaker 1>The point of this, honestly, And I mean the one
<v Speaker 1>that I made with a lot of help from Mum
<v Speaker 1>turned out to be kind of but ugly and geographically inaccurate.
<v Speaker 3>We did it, but you got a good memory about it.
<v Speaker 3>You got a good memory, but making it right?
<v Speaker 1>No, not really really.
<v Speaker 3>Making dioramas and things with my parents. Yeah, that's sort
<v Speaker 3>of a key chig memory from that.
<v Speaker 1>I think both Mum and kind of like, what's the point.
<v Speaker 1>What are we doing here, guys? And then this was
<v Speaker 1>not like a year long project or something, but it
<v Speaker 1>was semi major. He actually had to do it during
<v Speaker 1>school holidays as well. I remember coming back from school
<v Speaker 1>holidays and someone had made something that looked absolutely beautiful,
<v Speaker 1>like one legit professional.
<v Speaker 3>They didn't make it, that's the thing.
<v Speaker 1>Maybe they didn't.
<v Speaker 3>Well, here's the thing. I feel like I'm gonna be
<v Speaker 3>that parent that wants Elliott's to look good, nice sort
<v Speaker 3>of take over. Oh no, that's not what we do,
<v Speaker 3>so do we do it this way?
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, I mean I was thinking about homework, and
<v Speaker 1>you hear a lot of sort of parents saying or
<v Speaker 1>even you know, wow, God, what's the point of that?
<v Speaker 1>Why can't we Why can't our kids learn what they
<v Speaker 1>have to learn within school hours and then after hours?
<v Speaker 1>You know, that's when they can either extracurriculus or they
<v Speaker 1>just get a chance to be kids, just get a
<v Speaker 1>chance to relax. Well, yeah, maybe the work the homework
<v Speaker 1>is not about the work or not about the task
<v Speaker 1>it's been set. It's more about do you have persistence,
<v Speaker 1>do you have organization? Do you have good time management? Not?
<v Speaker 1>Do you have these things naturally, but we're trying to
<v Speaker 1>maybe instill these into you. I think, Okay, well that's valid.
<v Speaker 1>That makes a bunch of sense.
<v Speaker 3>It's for me, My core thing, and I've mentioned this
<v Speaker 3>in a podcast, is stressing to my kids. It doesn't
<v Speaker 3>matter if you don't get a great score, as long
<v Speaker 3>as you're having an effort. As long as you're putting
<v Speaker 3>in the effort, that's what I want the most And
<v Speaker 3>obviously you want your kids to do succeed and do
<v Speaker 3>well in school. But you don't have to succeed in
<v Speaker 3>school to succeed in life. No, it's just as long
<v Speaker 3>as you are doing what you want to do, you're happy.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but he's happy. Yeah, But I mean the structure.
<v Speaker 3>Of learning and this pertains the homework as well as Yeah,
<v Speaker 3>can you do it outside of the structure of school. Yeah,
<v Speaker 3>while we're not sort of looming over you, so you know,
<v Speaker 3>and there are going to be times when you're not
<v Speaker 3>being monitored. Yeah, and that's the time when you have
<v Speaker 3>to sort of sit down and go, Okay, well I
<v Speaker 3>need to can do ABC and D. Do I have
<v Speaker 3>it in me to sit down and do all these things?
<v Speaker 3>And what's the most efficient and effective way to do it?
<v Speaker 3>I think the older you get, I know, when I
<v Speaker 3>was in year twelve anyway, what we call VCE you
<v Speaker 3>do less classes so you have more study time at school.
<v Speaker 3>So when it starts getting to the nitty gritty, the
<v Speaker 3>serious side of things, we've got to get a good
<v Speaker 3>score to get into university and things like that. It's
<v Speaker 3>all right. Instead of doing you know, ten sessions of classroom.
<v Speaker 3>You might do seven and you got five through it,
<v Speaker 3>and you can pick when you have your study sessions. Yeah,
<v Speaker 3>and you're studying at school. Some kids obviously go the
<v Speaker 3>extra mile and study outside of school and they get
<v Speaker 3>better scores, but they give you at least that time
<v Speaker 3>at school to go. We know that you're probably not
<v Speaker 3>going to want to do stuff outside of school, so
<v Speaker 3>you can have some study time at school. But yeah,
<v Speaker 3>Ali's at that point. He's doing homework yet, but he
<v Speaker 3>wants to. He says, I want to do some homework.
<v Speaker 3>He'll say, can you give me ten words to write?
<v Speaker 3>Or And Ali's he's just a smart kid.
<v Speaker 1>Man.
<v Speaker 3>I know you buyas for your own kids, but he's
<v Speaker 3>just smart.
<v Speaker 1>That's good. Yeah, he's motivated.
<v Speaker 3>I guess you could say, well, it's well, it's good
<v Speaker 3>to have the both, right.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.
<v Speaker 3>Well I took him roller skating for the first time
<v Speaker 3>the roll skating rink here in Geelong, and he'd never
<v Speaker 3>roll scatered or rollerblade whites in his life. And the
<v Speaker 3>first fifteen twenty minutes he was struggling and he was
<v Speaker 3>falling over and I said, look, I'm gonna go get
<v Speaker 3>it there and help him because he's just kept falling over.
<v Speaker 3>I could see he was getting I wouldn't say he
<v Speaker 3>was getting frustrated. He was getting embarrassed because you've seen
<v Speaker 3>other kids sort of scat and he was like, I
<v Speaker 3>don't want to look like I can't do this and
<v Speaker 3>other kids are falling over, but he doesn't. That's not
<v Speaker 3>what he's focusing on. He's just focusing I can't do it,
<v Speaker 3>so it. Then I helped him and I got in between.
<v Speaker 3>He was holding onto the wall, so I held it.
<v Speaker 3>I'm your wall, you hold onto my hand and said
<v Speaker 3>I said, you want to have a break, and he goes, no,
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to get this. I'm going to get this.
<v Speaker 3>And within an hour he was having me time him
<v Speaker 3>doing laps because he just he's like, I can do this.
<v Speaker 3>I know I can do this. I've just got to practice.
<v Speaker 3>And it's just trying to instill in him it's okay
<v Speaker 3>because I reckon. A year ago, he would have cracked it,
<v Speaker 3>and he's now thankfully learnt that it's okay not to
<v Speaker 3>be good at something from the get go.
<v Speaker 1>That's a valuable less list.
<v Speaker 3>Persist, you know, just try and it doesn't matter if
<v Speaker 3>you don't pick it up. But just try not everything's
<v Speaker 3>for everyone.
<v Speaker 1>Well that's the only I've quoted this interview that I
<v Speaker 1>did on ago, and it's probably less valid these days
<v Speaker 1>because this guy's going to persona nograda, not persona no grada.
<v Speaker 1>But I did this interview with Will Smith back in
<v Speaker 1>the early two thousands because he played Muhammad Ali in
<v Speaker 1>l A and he referred to himself as a clumsy geek.
<v Speaker 1>And he said, but he's the thing. I'm a math guy,
<v Speaker 1>and he is. I mean, he got to head a
<v Speaker 1>scholarship to MIT to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Smart guy.
<v Speaker 1>You know, I believe in math. Like if I do
<v Speaker 1>this today and I keep doing this, this, this, and
<v Speaker 1>if I keep doing it, it will compound. You know.
<v Speaker 1>I was you know, I wasn't able to box like
<v Speaker 1>Muhammad Ali. But if I kept training, you know, if
<v Speaker 1>I set myself a curriculum and I did it day
<v Speaker 1>after day after day after day, I would get muscle
<v Speaker 1>memory and eventually I'd be I wasn't able to box
<v Speaker 1>like Muhammad Ali, but I was certainly convincing enough to
<v Speaker 1>make you think that I could. That makes it. That
<v Speaker 1>made a whole bunch of sense to him. It was
<v Speaker 1>like Will Smith the smart guy. Yeah, shouldn't have slaped
<v Speaker 1>First Rock the.
<v Speaker 3>Way he did it was Ricky Gervais. I was watching
<v Speaker 3>an interview recently, just a clip of it on social
<v Speaker 3>media where he goes, I don't think we'll want to
<v Speaker 3>do the slap. I think he watch him. You watch
<v Speaker 3>his face and he gets up, and he can tell
<v Speaker 3>before he even gets to Chris Rock he's regretted what
<v Speaker 3>he's done, but he's gone so far to do something.
<v Speaker 3>He's reached the point of because he goes he could
<v Speaker 3>go up there and just not Chris Rock's block off,
<v Speaker 3>but he goes. You watch him when he slashed him,
<v Speaker 3>he sort of like leans back on it. It still
<v Speaker 3>hits him hard, but he can just tell in his
<v Speaker 3>face he was just he went, oh, I've stood up.
<v Speaker 3>Now I've got to do something.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and confused enough at the moment is like, oh,
<v Speaker 1>I could probably turn this into a bit. You know,
<v Speaker 1>I could get up and sort of like put him in.
<v Speaker 3>A headlock or something, just like yeah, it's headlog is
<v Speaker 3>like wind by the lights man. Yeah, man, So anyway,
<v Speaker 3>but don't slap people.
<v Speaker 1>Before all that happened, Will Smith at least had one
<v Speaker 1>valuable thing to say as far as I'm concerned.
<v Speaker 3>But I really liked the ending of this. So the
<v Speaker 3>whole story is that Bart for those of you that
<v Speaker 3>haven't watched the episode, because there are some listeners out there,
<v Speaker 3>just don't bother watching the episodes in WHI let's listen
<v Speaker 3>to our reviews. So the main story is that Bart
<v Speaker 3>is causing a riff in between Homer and Marge because
<v Speaker 3>he's just being his normal naughty self and he wants
<v Speaker 3>and he he's using them both against each other to
<v Speaker 3>get what he wants. Yes, and then they realize, you
<v Speaker 3>know what, our marriage is more important. I think Homoss
<v Speaker 3>is something along the lines of, we can't let him
<v Speaker 3>break our marriage up. We got the reason we got
<v Speaker 3>mad in the first place was because of him. Yes,
<v Speaker 3>So it's like they didn't focus on themselves and they
<v Speaker 3>it was just nice seeing them getting along again, like
<v Speaker 3>just and this is what it was like for us
<v Speaker 3>in the weekend. It's like, oh, we're just going out
<v Speaker 3>and went to the restaurant for a restaurant, had dinner
<v Speaker 3>and it wasn't put that down. Sit still, sit on
<v Speaker 3>your bum, sit on your bum, don't watch bring the
<v Speaker 3>glass away from the edge of the It's always the
<v Speaker 3>same routine. Glass away from the edge of the table.
<v Speaker 3>Stop talking with your mouth full, sit on your bum.
<v Speaker 3>Don't know you want to go to toilet? Okay, no worries,
<v Speaker 3>get to the tour at the other one. I need
<v Speaker 3>to go to the toilet now, Okay, you're gonna go. Yeah,
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna go. Chop out. It's just it's just nice
<v Speaker 3>being able to just relax and seeing margin Homer, just
<v Speaker 3>enjoying each other's company and just going, you know what,
<v Speaker 3>we don't give a shit, you know. But then they
<v Speaker 3>realize that's not how it can work. You need to
<v Speaker 3>find a balance of being a good parent and or
<v Speaker 3>just being your parent, yes, and working out what works
<v Speaker 3>for you guys as well. And then you think that
<v Speaker 3>Lisa has overheard a conversation of Bart saying I'm going
<v Speaker 3>to cause an earthquake in Springfield and destroy the school
<v Speaker 3>by running the subway. But no, he's actually used Lisa's
<v Speaker 3>whatever stationary to write a letter too muge, saying as
<v Speaker 3>he's Lisa dobbin on Bart, they catch him. He gets caught,
<v Speaker 3>He gets in trouble, back to normal, back to the
<v Speaker 3>status quo, and is revealed at the end that Lisa's like,
<v Speaker 3>I didn't write that note, but tried to get himself
<v Speaker 3>caught so that he could go back to the status quo,
<v Speaker 3>and Lisa says, I'm not going to say anything. I thought,
<v Speaker 3>at least it's a nice moment between brother and sister,
<v Speaker 3>because I'm so sick of them being mean to each
<v Speaker 3>other all the time. I get the I get bickering
<v Speaker 3>brother and sister bickering, but I don't feel like they're
<v Speaker 3>bickering anymore. I feel like they genuinely with the recent episodes,
<v Speaker 3>they just don't like each other anymore.
<v Speaker 1>No. No, I mean, look, I don't want to sort
<v Speaker 1>of sledge the riders too much, but yeah, it felt
<v Speaker 1>like they kind of lost the knack of just writing
<v Speaker 1>the kind of banter that a bickering brother and sister
<v Speaker 1>would have as a Yeah, I mean, this is just
<v Speaker 1>snark as opposed to just yeah, little bits.
<v Speaker 3>Of niggling it one another genuine disdain for each other, yeah,
<v Speaker 3>which is not entertaining fun. No, the only thing I
<v Speaker 3>would have liked for this episode is one final scene
<v Speaker 3>of margin Homer just acknowledging that they're going to be
<v Speaker 3>fine going forward. But also still going to be parenting,
<v Speaker 3>because you have. I think the last thing we see
<v Speaker 3>from them is them yelling at Bart for what he
<v Speaker 3>did with the subway and causing the earthquake and whatnot,
<v Speaker 3>and then he hugs him and says, thanks for being
<v Speaker 3>mean parent, guys, I love you. And that's the end
<v Speaker 3>of it. And you think I wanted to see margin
<v Speaker 3>Homer go, well, going forward, we're still going to be
<v Speaker 3>best friends. We just gotta work on this together.
<v Speaker 1>I think we can make that assumption. Yeah, but it
<v Speaker 1>takes ten seconds.
<v Speaker 3>I'm sure there was some sort of filler gag in
<v Speaker 3>this episode he could cut out to add that little
<v Speaker 3>extra scene and.
<v Speaker 1>Just another filler gags in the next episode, which is
<v Speaker 1>the next one, stealing those bays. It wasn't too bad.
<v Speaker 1>It was not good. Okay my favorite.
<v Speaker 3>Were your favorite moments from this one?
<v Speaker 1>As I mentioned, I really like the Actually I love
<v Speaker 1>the Springfield Tomorrow animation. I like that. I just liked
<v Speaker 1>the animation style.
<v Speaker 3>It was weird for me because I like the style
<v Speaker 3>of it. I went, what is this?
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean I was trying to sort of picture
<v Speaker 1>exactly what it's from. I mean, it feels just very
<v Speaker 1>sort of nineteen fifties. The future is now. So I
<v Speaker 1>mentioned the subway in that they do it, yeah, because
<v Speaker 1>they talk about is it subway sam.
<v Speaker 3>Ah, because you've got so planting of sets of the subway.
<v Speaker 1>You got the guys they go on a bus or something.
<v Speaker 1>You got a bus, then you to stop the guy
<v Speaker 1>m yeah, modic Carmel, Yeah, that's right. Yeah, but I
<v Speaker 1>just like I love the local Jetsons. Yeah, it felt
<v Speaker 1>a little Jetsony also not peanuts like, but certainly that
<v Speaker 1>kind of nineteen fifties, nineteen sixty star Yeah, definitely style. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>and it felt very I don't want to go up
<v Speaker 1>on a tangent here, but something we've lost as a
<v Speaker 1>society in the twenty twenties is the ability to get optimic,
<v Speaker 1>to make people optimistic about the future. There's a lot
<v Speaker 1>of doomer has been going on right now, and look,
<v Speaker 1>maybe someone's warranted. When were we ever optimistic about the
<v Speaker 1>future up until the turn of the century, we were.
<v Speaker 3>Looking back to the future. Look at Terminator, Look at
<v Speaker 3>all these pop culture icons. None of them are positive
<v Speaker 3>in the future. Brad Blade Runner, fifth Element.
<v Speaker 1>I think no, I think even in the in the nineties,
<v Speaker 1>I mean, there was always a sense that's like, no,
<v Speaker 1>things are going to be good.
<v Speaker 3>I don't know that really got flying cars? What does
<v Speaker 3>that mean things are going to be good? Or is
<v Speaker 3>that a better technology?
<v Speaker 1>No? I think there was always always a mind that like,
<v Speaker 1>not necessarily the technology was going to make things better,
<v Speaker 1>but we are going to keep inventing things and things
<v Speaker 1>that are going to benefit humanity. I don't know when
<v Speaker 1>when the tide turn was kind of like, well, now
<v Speaker 1>the planet is farked, yeah, and now the economy is
<v Speaker 1>stuffed and you're not really going to have a job anymore.
<v Speaker 1>Computers to do that. You've got some people who were saying,
<v Speaker 1>I know the future is actually going to be amazing
<v Speaker 1>thanks to AI and things like that. But I don't know.
<v Speaker 1>We used to be able to be sold things a
<v Speaker 1>bit better and that you se put your head in
<v Speaker 1>the sand, not not necessarily that a good story about
<v Speaker 1>what might happen would possibly create a bit of optimism
<v Speaker 1>and create a bit of sort of forward momentum in
<v Speaker 1>that regards like, no, it actually is going to be good.
<v Speaker 1>I think I think pessimism creates pessimism. I think optimism
<v Speaker 1>creates optimism.
<v Speaker 3>Well, I think social media started the trend of pessimism
<v Speaker 3>that could well be Twitter in particularly you're on Twitter
<v Speaker 3>and it is just doom and gloom. And I found
<v Speaker 3>myself not always, I found myself spending too much time
<v Speaker 3>on Twitter and just being convinced that this is what
<v Speaker 3>reality was, and reality. Social media isn't reality, No, it's
<v Speaker 3>not at all. It's where everyone goes to vet their frustrations.
<v Speaker 1>I'm not fine, and that's the case. But I mean,
<v Speaker 1>I mean I don't spend well, maybe I do spend
<v Speaker 1>a bit of time on Twitter, but I mean I'm
<v Speaker 1>you curate your feed, you sort of you curate the
<v Speaker 1>people who you're going to listen to, and mentally that
<v Speaker 1>can cause a bit of a feedback loop. But I
<v Speaker 1>haven't necessarily found a whole lot of like, oh this
<v Speaker 1>is fine. I mean, of course occasionally is going to
<v Speaker 1>be some, but it depends on Also, I mean, Twitter's
<v Speaker 1>got that thing it's.
<v Speaker 3>Like for you, and so I always have the for
<v Speaker 3>you so to follow.
<v Speaker 1>I know, Yeah, that's a big, big mistake. Something else
<v Speaker 1>I enjoyed. There weren't too many in all, honestly, but
<v Speaker 1>I did think this gag was pretty funny. When Homer
<v Speaker 1>and Marge is sort of finding things to be angry
<v Speaker 1>about with one another, something like, it's fine to pee
<v Speaker 1>in the shower as long as you're in the shower.
<v Speaker 3>I'll pay that it. What's your stands on peeing in
<v Speaker 3>the shower?
<v Speaker 1>I for what if you're in the shower, Yeah, there's
<v Speaker 1>no problem there. It's all going down the drain.
<v Speaker 3>What if someone's in there with you?
<v Speaker 1>Oh? What if it gets to the night.
<v Speaker 3>I liked in this episode the Itchy is Scratching House MD,
<v Speaker 3>Mouse MD, because I thought it was just a very
<v Speaker 3>accurate depiction of what House is. We started watching House
<v Speaker 3>and I just got to the end of it. It
<v Speaker 3>got to a point where I was like, so every
<v Speaker 3>episode is just he fucks up, he sucks up, he
<v Speaker 3>fucks up, he sucks up, and then has a light
<v Speaker 3>bulb moment and cures the person.
<v Speaker 1>That's pretty much House.
<v Speaker 3>It was just the music player. I yeah, and we
<v Speaker 3>did obviously took my notes for stealing in first Space.
<v Speaker 3>It feels like they're going back to itching scratching cartoons again.
<v Speaker 3>It's like the writers have realized, Hey, you can pad
<v Speaker 3>these episodes out with these things.
<v Speaker 1>You really can.
<v Speaker 3>The other one was just like still going right?
<v Speaker 1>Still, when made a sandwich, when took a leak? Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>at a shower, Luis's gone to the toilet and you
<v Speaker 1>might step them to the side.
<v Speaker 3>Would you might leave in the house. I just could
<v Speaker 3>get a loud I home. His justification is why he
<v Speaker 3>liked crouching tiger hidden. Yeah, it's no line and close
<v Speaker 3>to the toilet.
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes that's what you want from from an eatery. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>next question you there eating the paste?
<v Speaker 3>Trivia time hit me with your first question.
<v Speaker 1>Sure, how long did bart I have to do his
<v Speaker 1>homework project? Three months? Three months?
<v Speaker 3>You sat thirty seconds ago? Yeah, what's your thoughts on that?
<v Speaker 3>I that was my childhood, that was my schooling. I'm
<v Speaker 3>doing a last minute Yeah. Yeah, I tend to do
<v Speaker 3>that more often than if I had a two thousand
<v Speaker 3>word essay. You on a Monday. I didn't start to
<v Speaker 3>all maybe Friday night, but Sunday morning, I'm like, right,
<v Speaker 3>you have to day.
<v Speaker 1>You can do this, And I always did. Well, oh yeah, yeah.
<v Speaker 1>I think the thing is it called Parkinson's law that
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Look, a task will take as long
<v Speaker 1>as you have as the time you devote.
<v Speaker 3>To it is one of the two observations made by
<v Speaker 3>the naval historian Parkinson and fifty five essay Work expands
<v Speaker 3>so as to fill the time available for its completion. Yeah,
<v Speaker 3>the number of workers within public administration tends to grow
<v Speaker 3>regards of the amount of work to be done.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. So I mean it's like I've got five hours
<v Speaker 1>to do. It's, oh, then it'll take five hours. The
<v Speaker 1>task may actually take five minutes, but it's like I've
<v Speaker 1>set as five hours of this. You will inevitably take
<v Speaker 1>the five hours. It's like you get it done quickly. Yeah.
<v Speaker 3>Well, that's that's the end of that is though, that
<v Speaker 3>is the built in mentality of being an office worker,
<v Speaker 3>because you'll have eight hours worth of work to do,
<v Speaker 3>and you get paid just as much as if you
<v Speaker 3>did it in two hours if you didn't eight So
<v Speaker 3>if you finished it in two hours week for six hours,
<v Speaker 3>if you do that, right, you learn, well, I do
<v Speaker 3>all this eight hours worth of work in two hours,
<v Speaker 3>they don't have to do more work. They'll give me
<v Speaker 3>more works. I'll drag this out for the full work day.
<v Speaker 3>And that's where you just slowly it chipped away and
<v Speaker 3>chipped away and chipped away.
<v Speaker 1>One of the great documents of our time is the
<v Speaker 1>movie Big you remember where Yeah, Tom Hanks has got
<v Speaker 1>his first job and he's going to work at the
<v Speaker 1>toy company and he's like going, It's like, oh okay,
<v Speaker 1>I've got to do this, this and this like it's
<v Speaker 1>love it's John Lovets's coworkers like slow down. I literally
<v Speaker 1>had this experience.
<v Speaker 3>I've talked about it before where my first day at Ford,
<v Speaker 3>I guess set with these old guys to do this job.
<v Speaker 3>You can just help these guys out for the day.
<v Speaker 3>They'll show the ropes and I'm working and the supervisors
<v Speaker 3>like you doing a great job. Keep it up, keep
<v Speaker 3>it up. And the supervisor walks off and the guy's
<v Speaker 3>just like slow down. I'm like, what is slow down?
<v Speaker 1>Over time?
<v Speaker 3>Don't finish it now, drag it out over time.
<v Speaker 1>The lord like that, like you know, seventy year old
<v Speaker 1>Yugoslavin guy've been there for forty years. He's like, I
<v Speaker 1>like that. The you do the money.
<v Speaker 3>It didn't actually say slowly, he just did this and
<v Speaker 3>it's all about hand gestures in fomus you couldn't hear.
<v Speaker 3>So they had like that set smoke on and things
<v Speaker 3>like that. He's doing and want what do you mean
<v Speaker 3>he goes slow down over time?
<v Speaker 1>I like that, like the finger things to taxes that
<v Speaker 1>needs to come back, have cash anymore? I know, yeah,
<v Speaker 1>just slow down over time, tap good man. Yeah.
<v Speaker 3>Did you ask me? Yeah, you asked me. What was
<v Speaker 3>the what did I have to build the assignment? What
<v Speaker 3>was it the first assignment?
<v Speaker 1>Oh? It was like a Hoope Indian settlement or somethinglo
<v Speaker 1>yeah where blo? Yes, you mentioned the Itching Scratchy House
<v Speaker 1>cartoon before. In it there's a blackboard with some instructions,
<v Speaker 1>medical instructions. One of them is replace heart with what.
<v Speaker 3>I don't know what was it? It was a spider
<v Speaker 3>spider all right. My next question for you is what
<v Speaker 3>was the temperature of bart to get out of school?
<v Speaker 3>It was in one of three three yeah, and it
<v Speaker 3>was thirty nine degrees our temperature celsius. But I did
<v Speaker 3>like the bit about go do it at the butt
<v Speaker 3>un Lisa said something like, you know, you close you
<v Speaker 3>eyes to think of millhouse and then he somehows the
<v Speaker 3>temperature up is?
<v Speaker 1>But how did you do it?
<v Speaker 3>You don't want to know it's funny.
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that. I thought that was unfunny really,
<v Speaker 1>just that whole closer. I don't even know what that means.
<v Speaker 3>Closuise, think of Millhouse? You know what that means?
<v Speaker 1>No, I don't. Because she was shoving off his backside. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>so he's getting sucked by Millhouse.
<v Speaker 3>She was obviously making a joke in.
<v Speaker 1>England when someone's getting penetrated. Yeah, that's the joke. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>I don't get what the joke means.
<v Speaker 3>She was just being smug saying close, think of Millhouse,
<v Speaker 3>just because she knows he's faking it.
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I don't know why he should think of Millhouse?
<v Speaker 1>Is he thinking because hill House is putting that inside me?
<v Speaker 1>Is because he will in the Millhouse?
<v Speaker 3>Because he wouldn't want to think of That's the joke,
<v Speaker 3>is that he wouldn't want to think of Millhouse in
<v Speaker 3>that moment.
<v Speaker 1>So it's just she's just.
<v Speaker 3>Being a smart ass.
<v Speaker 1>I still don't get it. Okay, that's fun. My next
<v Speaker 1>and possibly last question you is what are the two
<v Speaker 1>squishy flavors at the quickie radical redes? It's something blueberry.
<v Speaker 1>I'mo can look at my notes. What is it? Blue
<v Speaker 1>blueberry blasts? Blueberry blast? I do like the old literation,
<v Speaker 1>and we got slurpies here don't we we do. I
<v Speaker 1>drove past seven eleven the other day and.
<v Speaker 3>I thought, I said sloppies every summer it used to
<v Speaker 3>be one dollar slurpies and you'd have the you could
<v Speaker 3>fill it up yourself. And the key I mentioned on
<v Speaker 3>the podcast, I will say it again in case anyone
<v Speaker 3>missed it. The key to filling up a good slurpye
<v Speaker 3>or only thing where you're filling up your own drink,
<v Speaker 3>right like a frozen ice drink. Yes, don't fill up
<v Speaker 3>the cup and then put the lid on. Put the
<v Speaker 3>lid on first, the dome on top, shove the thing
<v Speaker 3>inside and fill the dome. Don't fill the cup, fill
<v Speaker 3>the dome.
<v Speaker 1>It's in valuable life lessons from Nando. If you get
<v Speaker 1>like an extra inches of slurpy, you eat a dome fall. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>that's way better. You gonna sound very ignorant. We still
<v Speaker 1>have seven elevens. I mean I know the one.
<v Speaker 3>That's why I say. I drove past the other day
<v Speaker 3>and it said one dollar, the one on the corner
<v Speaker 3>out there. I was like, one doors, let's still do
<v Speaker 3>one dollor slurpies. Oh, go get one in this economy?
<v Speaker 3>What so kind of time oh Yeah, stone Gunna shout

<v Speaker 3>All Right, So, the original edit of this episode Postcards
<v Speaker 3>from the wedge was March fourteenth, twenty ten. It's not
<v Speaker 3>three films at US box office when this episode aired
<v Speaker 3>in number three we have She's out of My League?
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's fine. Are you aware of this one? And
<v Speaker 1>you know Jay Barroshell, he's the voice of Pickup in
<v Speaker 1>the How To Train and Dragon animated movies. Okay, yeah,
<v Speaker 1>and he's sort of like, not necessarily a nerdy, weedy guy,
<v Speaker 1>but he's sort of, oh, I know the guy.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he's sort of squeintz when he talks a little bit.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, for some reason, I got the post on my head.
<v Speaker 3>We sort of like, he's like.
<v Speaker 1>What because, yeah, for something, he's working with this woman
<v Speaker 1>I think at the airport. She's an actress named Alice Eve,
<v Speaker 1>and she is hot, damn good goalie, and for some
<v Speaker 1>reason she's got an interest in him, and he's like what.
<v Speaker 1>He's also like, she's out of my league. It's very
<v Speaker 1>much one of those like the hop Yeah you don't
<v Speaker 1>need to see the movie. Poster is the movie? Like
<v Speaker 1>what she's like? But you're you're so cute. It's like, okay.
<v Speaker 3>Out of this discussion with Nicola the other day about
<v Speaker 3>the movie posters and I was just like there was
<v Speaker 3>this post a pitch going trending on Twitter of like
<v Speaker 3>a video store, and it's like, yeah, streaming really ruined everything,
<v Speaker 3>didn't it? Can we go back right? And it's like, no,
<v Speaker 3>you need to find that balance. Well, it is convenient.
<v Speaker 3>But the thing is movie posters now suffer because they
<v Speaker 3>don't bother that need to make an effort anymore. No, No,
<v Speaker 3>they're just tile yeah that scrolling through and they can
<v Speaker 3>change and whenever they feel like it was like when
<v Speaker 3>the poster came out, that was the movie's poster. There
<v Speaker 3>were there were, there were alternatives, but it's like there's
<v Speaker 3>one big post that everyone knows the movie for absolutely.
<v Speaker 1>Like I said about I'm about marketing for we've lost
<v Speaker 1>our ability to sort of market the future. We've certainly
<v Speaker 1>lost our ability to market movies. Gosh, when I was
<v Speaker 1>a lad, you have your post of that French movie
<v Speaker 1>Betty Blue or pulp fiction or train Spotting or something
<v Speaker 1>like that, and that would be all over sort of
<v Speaker 1>like high schooler and University Daumentary Wars. He's going to
<v Speaker 1>have a fucking Avengers end post. But I mean it's
<v Speaker 1>it gets the job, kid does I'm sure, But It
<v Speaker 1>gets the job done, but it's not exactly art. For
<v Speaker 1>want of a better term, and a good poster and
<v Speaker 1>a good marketing avan will really sort of get you
<v Speaker 1>get your blood pumping. Nowadays, if you want posters, usually
<v Speaker 1>you know it's companies like Mondo who will do it
<v Speaker 1>after the fact. Yeah, number two, Yeah, but you're right
<v Speaker 1>that she's out of my leg post. Okay, Well, I
<v Speaker 1>don't need to see the movie now. I'm pretty sure
<v Speaker 1>they're going to end up together. It'll be like, guess
<v Speaker 1>what I learned to you will lessen about self esteem
<v Speaker 1>and all these mates will go like, yeah, we learn
<v Speaker 1>a lesson about not judging books by their covers. And
<v Speaker 1>then Rodney Danger for Pups and says, hey, everybody, we're
<v Speaker 1>all gonna get late you want.
<v Speaker 3>And yeah.
<v Speaker 1>So number two was Green's own. Oh yeah, a very
<v Speaker 1>different film, very but see if you look at the
<v Speaker 1>post of that, I think that she has Matt Damon
<v Speaker 1>sort of looking to turn with the guns with a gun, yeah,
<v Speaker 1>because it's black Hawk Down, very similar. It is. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>it's sort of a yeah set in the war in Iraq.
<v Speaker 1>I think they're yeah, or in Afghanistan or something like that.
<v Speaker 1>But it's it. I think it's by the guy who
<v Speaker 1>did the Born, the second, second, third Born movies as well.
<v Speaker 1>So it's like it's like a Born movie but real
<v Speaker 1>it's like it's also boring. And number one was still
<v Speaker 1>Alice Wonderland a parably. That movie does really well, like
<v Speaker 1>like four or five straight weeks. Number one it made
<v Speaker 1>sound like a billion dollars. That's crazy to be it
<v Speaker 1>is and it's I've never watched war crime of a movie.
<v Speaker 1>Is it is no good? I mean that was one
<v Speaker 1>of the I think I walked down to me. I
<v Speaker 1>think I hate Tim Burton. Now.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's where people started going, oh, can we get
<v Speaker 3>we're done with Depp and Burton?
<v Speaker 1>I think, yeah, I think maybe Charlie that I'm done.
<v Speaker 3>I'm fucking done. Yeah, what are you guys doing?
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you stop being.
<v Speaker 3>Quirky for the sake of quirky. Even people who are
<v Speaker 3>quirk you think this is ridiculous.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. So, but a lot of people liked Alison Wonderland
<v Speaker 1>and our girl Anne Hathaway, and it did it? Really
<v Speaker 1>his girl? She was the queen, wasn't she. She was
<v Speaker 1>one of the queens, one.
<v Speaker 3>Of the queens. I thought there was only one Queen
<v Speaker 3>of Hearts?
<v Speaker 1>Was she the queen of hearts? I thought Helen the
<v Speaker 1>bottom carter was the question?
<v Speaker 3>I thought, is there more queens in? Maybe it's been
<v Speaker 3>a long it was. I watched that and I watched
<v Speaker 3>it made movie maybe once when I was a kid.
<v Speaker 1>It was never my jam.
<v Speaker 3>Alice in Wonderland.
<v Speaker 1>It's for girls? Is it for everybody?
<v Speaker 3>So? The original edit, as we said, March fourteen, twenty ten,
<v Speaker 3>production code M A B F zero four, written by
<v Speaker 3>Brian Kelly and directed by our man Mark Kirkland. The
<v Speaker 3>couch gag is the repeat of the catch gig from
<v Speaker 3>Going Make It Gone? Can you remember what it was?
<v Speaker 1>I cannot?
<v Speaker 3>Was this the flower plant one were they're like a vegetable?
<v Speaker 3>I was at the next one, the Catches of Pinada,
<v Speaker 3>and a blind fighter rough hits it and the family
<v Speaker 3>falls out. Yes, so that is the end of that one,
<v Speaker 3>the repeat and couch gags. I don't scratches in I
<v Speaker 3>did this.
<v Speaker 1>I think I accidentally hit skip intro on that one.
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh, accidentally, I don't skip intros, dude,
<v Speaker 1>ed I it's very important not to.
<v Speaker 3>It's just in a stage. I think I might have
<v Speaker 3>I think it doesn't matter in the grand skinny things,
<v Speaker 3>but it's like a personal thing to me, going, I
<v Speaker 3>know I didn't.
<v Speaker 1>But in this particular instance, I might have skipped intro.
<v Speaker 1>And my apologies to everyone everyone in the world.
<v Speaker 3>But we have Springfield of tomorrow. The videos we're already
<v Speaker 3>discussed Springfields and it sort of have a little button
<v Speaker 3>at the end where it's Springfield still great in the future.
<v Speaker 3>At the end, missus k though she doesn't know what
<v Speaker 3>the point of that was, and I was going, yeah,
<v Speaker 3>I don't know the point that was either at least
<v Speaker 3>the spring at least the Springfield city on the grow
<v Speaker 3>played into our Springfield shit. Now like I had a transition.
<v Speaker 3>This is just watching something at school. Okay, well, this
<v Speaker 3>will give you an indication that we have a subway.
<v Speaker 1>That's it. That's it.
<v Speaker 3>But I didn't come out of that thinking that though,
<v Speaker 3>And when I got to the subway, I didn't remember that.
<v Speaker 3>It wasn't like, oh, that's right, because I mentioned the
<v Speaker 3>subway and the intro.
<v Speaker 1>I say the seed, but the sprout was not exactly flourishing.
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, I'm just not a fan of when an
<v Speaker 1>episode or any comedy will have like I don't know
<v Speaker 1>what the point of that.
<v Speaker 3>Was, and it's like, you made us watch it.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Man, if there's no point, why did you make it?
<v Speaker 1>This didn't exist before you created it. You could have
<v Speaker 1>gone any number of ways with this.
<v Speaker 3>It's like a comedian getting on stage thing that was
<v Speaker 3>a bad joke. So don't tell us, we know, just
<v Speaker 3>move on. But she asked here for the for the homework,
<v Speaker 3>the hope, I hope the Indian pueblow he said blow.
<v Speaker 3>Martin shows off his presentation, talking about how there was
<v Speaker 3>an injustice once but at least he gets an A
<v Speaker 3>on his report card. That's all that matters. In the end,
<v Speaker 3>it felt like everything felt like there was a lot
<v Speaker 3>of padding. Yeah, there was a lot of padding. Yeah,
<v Speaker 3>thats just what was Bart seing the Twister? So was
<v Speaker 3>he hoping that Twister was going to ruin the school? Yeah,
<v Speaker 3>knock down the school, okay? Or just be like, oh
<v Speaker 3>no twister alert everyone, Everyone leave the classroom. And then
<v Speaker 3>it disappears, saved for another day. But then missus Kay
<v Speaker 3>is disappointed by Bart's efforts. He's basically, she explains, here,
<v Speaker 3>you've broken me down. You know, I used to have
<v Speaker 3>a passion for teaching, and now I don't because of you,
<v Speaker 3>because you just don't care. She mentions how she watched
<v Speaker 3>to Serve with Love as a little girl. Nelson mox
<v Speaker 3>her for being old. She says she watched it on
<v Speaker 3>VHS in the eighties. He says that's an outdated medium,
<v Speaker 3>and I was like, isn't it funny though, how things
<v Speaker 3>are starting to be released on VHS again?
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, and it'll never be it's a nostalgia thing, right,
<v Speaker 3>and it's obviously it's a novelty.
<v Speaker 1>But I like, I just laugh. How the world when
<v Speaker 1>it comes to physical media, we're going full circle again?
<v Speaker 1>Oh god?
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?
<v Speaker 1>How many times have I said recently? It's like, I mean,
<v Speaker 1>I can't believe we're selling vinyl again and we're selling
<v Speaker 1>it yeah, I mean not actually not selling it for
<v Speaker 1>the cost again, but I mean at this insane these
<v Speaker 1>insane prices and.
<v Speaker 3>It's selling Oh yeah, absolutely, Because I think people are
<v Speaker 3>starting to realize there was more to a video store
<v Speaker 3>than convenience or necessity. It was the experience. Yeah, a
<v Speaker 3>routine original going to a movie is an experience. It's
<v Speaker 3>not just I want to watch it on the big screens, Like, no,
<v Speaker 3>you go to the movies. You're with your spouse or
<v Speaker 3>you're with your kids. You're buying the popcorn. You have
<v Speaker 3>the smell, trust the process. Yeah, it's that's and that's
<v Speaker 3>what we're buying the violel It's like, oh, it's the
<v Speaker 3>process of it's the experience of going to a store,
<v Speaker 3>picking up the cover and going I like this, taking
<v Speaker 3>it out of the cover, putting it in the play.
<v Speaker 3>The kids love putting blue rays in down.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I love it. You look on the bank like, wow,
<v Speaker 1>I'm learning a bit about this. Wow.
<v Speaker 3>His audio commentary, Yeah, he's a bit of a blur
<v Speaker 3>by Guy.
<v Speaker 1>Davis from Legelong Advertiser. That actually happened.
<v Speaker 3>That's the That's the thing that hits me the most
<v Speaker 3>is the special features. Right, And I know I sound old,
<v Speaker 3>but Nicholas's cousin I won't say a name, but she
<v Speaker 3>was like twenty two. I was talking about, Oh, I
<v Speaker 3>like this has a commentary a special feature, and she
<v Speaker 3>was just like.
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't ever so much what that was, Like, why
<v Speaker 1>would you care about that? It's like they've trained the younger,
<v Speaker 1>like why do you care about.
<v Speaker 3>How the movie's made? It's like to settle because there's
<v Speaker 3>yeah like that, And I was like, but don't you
<v Speaker 3>want to know you She's like, I don't care how
<v Speaker 3>they made the movie. It's like that the young generation
<v Speaker 3>don't give a fuck. It's like they don't care that
<v Speaker 3>I want special features because they've never had them.
<v Speaker 1>You know, when it's time to ask for time for
<v Speaker 1>us to re educate them.
<v Speaker 3>Because so many filmmakers, for example, Spielberg and in the seventies,
<v Speaker 3>what they would have loved to have had commentaries of
<v Speaker 3>films that they love this kids and things like oh sure, yeah, yeah.
<v Speaker 3>The whole reason I'm podcasting now is because I listened
<v Speaker 3>to the Simpsons commentaries when I was a kid. That's
<v Speaker 3>the reason. Of course, special feet just man bring him back.
<v Speaker 3>Oh no, we're all for him, Yeah, we are for him, indeed,
<v Speaker 3>But this is where but he tries to make his
<v Speaker 3>last second and yeah, missus K's just like, yeah, you've
<v Speaker 3>breaken me down. And then she writes a note to
<v Speaker 3>his parents and she goes to send it, but it's
<v Speaker 3>like I can do it. She said, Nope, I'm not
<v Speaker 3>going to do that. Not that silly. I wasn't born yesterday.
<v Speaker 3>And Nelson's like, hey, that's for sure.
<v Speaker 1>So I was like, everyone's mean to each other. Yes,
<v Speaker 1>I'm finding that a lot.
<v Speaker 3>And it feels like Skinner and missus Kay in particular,
<v Speaker 3>the authority figures in Springfield have always been dumb down, right,
<v Speaker 3>But Skinner and missus k always had the authority of
<v Speaker 3>what the kids knew, that they were the boss. They
<v Speaker 3>might pull pranks on skin, but when it came to
<v Speaker 3>missus Kay, they didn't backchat.
<v Speaker 1>Her like this.
<v Speaker 3>And now it's just so blase a I'm backchatting you
<v Speaker 3>and she just cops it.
<v Speaker 1>That's the thing. I mean, there's a difference between sort
<v Speaker 1>of the traditional cheekiness between the class clown or the
<v Speaker 1>class tear away or whatever and the authority figure. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>you'd get a little bit of backchat, but I mean
<v Speaker 1>this is more like we're all co workers in the
<v Speaker 1>same office. Like no, you're not no, you are not
<v Speaker 1>no at all. What you're going to attention, you're getting suspended,
<v Speaker 1>you're getting expelled.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you're getting spanking or you're getting spanking. But their
<v Speaker 3>bart sets off the firearm so that Martin can't get
<v Speaker 3>to put the mail in the apparently he's a mail
<v Speaker 3>delivery service.
<v Speaker 1>I have no idea, what the fuck is this? What? What?
<v Speaker 1>What are we even doing here?
<v Speaker 3>But he eventually gets sixth gradst distracted?
<v Speaker 1>But what even are we doing here? The sixth gradest stuff?
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, I don't know if you watched this with
<v Speaker 1>the captain, you could probably hear what they're saying. Anyway,
<v Speaker 1>it's like, oh, sixth graders, and of course they're all
<v Speaker 1>a little bit older, so they're saying they're taller, grown
<v Speaker 1>up stuff. But you know, you hear one of them say, oh,
<v Speaker 1>I haven't then wanted boner. It's like, how did he
<v Speaker 1>say that? Yeah, oh yeah, that's ship. It's like, I'm
<v Speaker 1>not trying to say, oh, that's inappropriate, but it's just
<v Speaker 1>not even quest to Nate. Yeah, the only time unmod
<v Speaker 1>Bonus are bunny is when it's in the pans of
<v Speaker 1>Jimmy Molmer because Nate.
<v Speaker 3>But eventually he gets to the delivers the mail. Then
<v Speaker 3>Bart like go thinks he's going to the mail shoot
<v Speaker 3>but it's actually old ice cream wrappers and really takes
<v Speaker 3>the mail away Bizare. Next day, Lisa sees Bart trying
<v Speaker 3>to fake his illness to stay home becase he's gonna
<v Speaker 3>wait for the letter to be delivered. I'm like, that's
<v Speaker 3>a quick delivery service. Yeah, what has this ever happened?
<v Speaker 3>Do they ever deliver mail in the mail? Will they
<v Speaker 3>just send it home? I trust a kitty at home.
<v Speaker 1>But it's like we're talking about twenty ten here, right.
<v Speaker 3>They would never post a letter to your parents in
<v Speaker 3>the mail, right, I know.
<v Speaker 1>I just we're talking about you twenty ten. We all
<v Speaker 1>had email addresses. Yeah, why is she writing a letter?
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I don't know anyway, because the story
<v Speaker 1>required it.
<v Speaker 3>So Bart's faking an illness so he can stay home
<v Speaker 3>and collect the mail.
<v Speaker 1>One hundred and three. No school today. Then again, there's
<v Speaker 1>only one way to get a truly accurate reading, Bart dance.
<v Speaker 1>Just close your eyes and think of mailhouse. Yep, one
<v Speaker 1>O three. You're staying home. How did you?
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to talk about it.
<v Speaker 3>And it just gets home. Just reads the mail because
<v Speaker 3>it was because Bart's was the thing. Bart gets distracted.
<v Speaker 3>He's like, I'm going to focus on the letter box,
<v Speaker 3>waiting for it to get delivered, so I can make
<v Speaker 3>sure on the first one that gets it gets distracted
<v Speaker 3>by video games and TV and everything, and you know
<v Speaker 3>I can relate, you know, this is me when I'm
<v Speaker 3>trying to I'm trying to edit, and I'm like, I
<v Speaker 3>want to see what's happening on Twitter, and it's like, no,
<v Speaker 3>put let me just watch one YouTube vide just for
<v Speaker 3>three hours. Yes, then this is where Homer finds the
<v Speaker 3>letter up and it just it was old in this
<v Speaker 3>episode that Homer seemed to be the one that wanted
<v Speaker 3>to put his foot down in March.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know.
<v Speaker 3>Again, well that's Bart manipulating March. I guess, I guess.
<v Speaker 1>But it's also, you know, maybe just the writers trying
<v Speaker 1>to shake things up. Oh, you didn't expect that Home
<v Speaker 1>will be the one who'd want to you know why?
<v Speaker 1>I didn't expect because it doesn't suit his character. There
<v Speaker 1>is that, But we have had this episode. We have
<v Speaker 1>had this story though in the episode when did She
<v Speaker 1>Scratch a Movie? When Barn is naughty and Homer puts
<v Speaker 1>his foot down and won't let him watch the movie,
<v Speaker 1>I think even March or some points like he's sure
<v Speaker 1>you should like, no, you asked me to stick to
<v Speaker 1>my guns. I'm sticking to my guns. But where he
<v Speaker 1>gets caught to the school, I did like that. But
<v Speaker 1>but when he finds his letter, and Bart says, look,
<v Speaker 1>I tried really hard to make sure you didn't read it.
<v Speaker 1>Does that count for anything? A little?
<v Speaker 3>Then Skinner is showing them all the homework that he's
<v Speaker 3>been late for this month, and this is where Marshall goes,
<v Speaker 3>that's a lot of homework. It's true, but it's never
<v Speaker 3>it's never at this level, especially what is grade four
<v Speaker 3>that it seems like the second company. Yeah, March He
<v Speaker 3>is just like, oh, it seems like you give my
<v Speaker 3>son a lot of work. I feel like what you're
<v Speaker 3>doing is you're causing him to not like school because
<v Speaker 3>he's got so much homework to do in home. It's like,
<v Speaker 3>now I give him more wanted to be Korean? When
<v Speaker 3>he's done, then Homer over the dishwasher here. Obviously you
<v Speaker 3>live alone, but I've had numerous times I've going to put.
<v Speaker 1>Something the dish washer and I'm like, oh, it's a
<v Speaker 1>cleaner there. What do I do? Yeah? You know what
<v Speaker 1>you're doing? That goes you cleaned up one plate and
<v Speaker 1>put it in the dish in there what you're washing
<v Speaker 1>the sink and yeah, so put that in the cupboard,
<v Speaker 1>leave the dishwasher to be emptied by somebody else. The
<v Speaker 1>Lovely always has a dishwasher, and I will frequently empty it.
<v Speaker 1>But at the same time, I don't like to pack
<v Speaker 1>it because something I've discovered is that people get very
<v Speaker 1>specific about how you pack the dishwasher. They do. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>So I'm like, I'm sure you have your way of
<v Speaker 1>doing this. Anything else I can do to help let
<v Speaker 1>me know. I mean, I'll go over and you know,
<v Speaker 1>if she's been generous enough to cook me a delightful meal,
<v Speaker 1>I'll do the dishes. But I'll generally do it in
<v Speaker 1>my hand. No, no, it's flash away. It might be
<v Speaker 1>a Davis thing. We find it all very therapy. You've
<v Speaker 1>said this before, yeah, Margaret, Mary, God bless he's still
<v Speaker 1>doing the dishes by hand at the ripe old age
<v Speaker 1>of ninety five.
<v Speaker 3>I remember Nicholas Stepdad's like that. We had like a
<v Speaker 3>lunch and there's like maybe like four plates, not not much,
<v Speaker 3>you know, and he fills the secat with his hot
<v Speaker 3>watered bubbles and stuff, and I was like a dish washer.
<v Speaker 3>He's like, no, I want to clean them. I'm like, yeah, man,
<v Speaker 3>it's like two glasses of four plates, like a waste
<v Speaker 3>of water.
<v Speaker 1>Fuck man. He used a whole lot of well maybe
<v Speaker 1>his years.
<v Speaker 3>But the set was like fill out of hot water
<v Speaker 3>and bubbles, and I was like, this seems excessive for
<v Speaker 3>four plays.
<v Speaker 1>Well how much? How much the water do you imagine
<v Speaker 1>the dishwasher?
<v Speaker 3>Is he using but washing an entire load? At that point,
<v Speaker 3>It's like, would you chuck two shirts two shirts into
<v Speaker 3>a washing machine and run do a full run?
<v Speaker 1>Sure? No, no, I agree to wash them. I han't
<v Speaker 1>wash my clothes. I just run around the rain, will
<v Speaker 1>the walk away, don't stirring spoon. No, I'm very conscientious
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to the washing machine, the clothes washer, like,
<v Speaker 1>that's far too few clothes, that's not enough clothing. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>then I'll just roller it and the just to make
<v Speaker 1>the dirty throw. I was like, uh, I've already used
<v Speaker 1>these tails work twice. Okay, yeah, time for washing.
<v Speaker 3>What Homer does here, though, is he realizes the dishwasher
<v Speaker 3>is clean, so he dirties up everything in the dishwasher
<v Speaker 3>again and then turns it on.
<v Speaker 1>I think I've written down here, man.
<v Speaker 3>Fuck, really, it was just funny and Marge's and she
<v Speaker 3>comes up, and Marge is worried that Bart will be
<v Speaker 3>turned off school forever. As a result of all this homework,
<v Speaker 3>and Homo sarcastically calls Hollywood about why is he called Hollywood?
<v Speaker 3>Oh oh, it's something about oh boy who doesn't want
<v Speaker 3>to do homework?
<v Speaker 1>How original? How original? Let's turn this into a movie. Oh,
<v Speaker 1>I got to write the movie. I think I've written. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>I don't know about this mixed messaging about blah blah blah.
<v Speaker 1>And then realize, oh, okay, that's the plot point. It's
<v Speaker 1>the idea of this episode that yeah, they still have
<v Speaker 1>been drivening it. And then Lisa very thoughtfully explains it, doesn't.
<v Speaker 3>She She does, yes before the bar, it's watching Pokemon
<v Speaker 3>instead of studying and then homaged.
<v Speaker 1>And they say, I do not know Pokemon. Some kids
<v Speaker 1>are asking me about this the other day because I
<v Speaker 1>was working in something Pokemon related. So do you know
<v Speaker 1>anything about Pokemon? I said, Oh, the picachoos and that
<v Speaker 1>one right with the Poka and chairs are in there
<v Speaker 1>snoll acts turn so I got that snoll axe, like I.
<v Speaker 3>Just had to watch through blood and bone.
<v Speaker 1>But don't they say? This was like because I actually
<v Speaker 1>say the word digitmon in this. Yeah, but even I'm
<v Speaker 1>sort of cluely enough, he goes, I said digitmon, but
<v Speaker 1>I'm pretty sure that's Pikatu from Pokemon.
<v Speaker 3>Digitmon was just a rip off of Pokemon. Oh okay
<v Speaker 3>then ye, digitmon means no, it's a digital mongoloid in
<v Speaker 3>the what's in the thing, but you would know that
<v Speaker 3>it's a digimon digital monsters. It's digital digital, digital mongoloid.
<v Speaker 1>That's me.
<v Speaker 3>It's in the title.
<v Speaker 1>It's what it says on the rare bit digital monsters.
<v Speaker 1>I've had, like my justification, it says it an intro,
<v Speaker 1>like you would know the intro for digital Dude, I'm
<v Speaker 1>the guy who will sing the growing Pink Pain's theme
<v Speaker 1>at the top of that. I'm not gonna know the
<v Speaker 1>digitmon thing. Yeah, but Pokemon's just Pokemon's gotta catch them more. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>Pokemon's capitalism out. It's fine.
<v Speaker 3>They're not digital monsters. They're genuine creatures in Pokemon, but
<v Speaker 3>digit one they're digital. Okay, the same thing, but they
<v Speaker 3>put a cluck in it. I remember the kid that
<v Speaker 3>was like, you're either digitmon kid or a Pokemon kid. Okay,
<v Speaker 3>my beetles or rolling stone. Let's move on, bar. It's
<v Speaker 3>distracted by a Pokemon and but Ham's annoyed by this,
<v Speaker 3>so He tries to move the TV, can't, so he
<v Speaker 3>draws over the front of it, and Marge says, comes
<v Speaker 3>back and whispers, just do a little bit and you
<v Speaker 3>can come out some cookies. I was like, Marge, this
<v Speaker 3>is not a productive way to do this.
<v Speaker 1>Why are you doing this? Yes? Exactly.
<v Speaker 3>Then Lisa is reading the Atlantic Kids Edition, and but
<v Speaker 3>why are the parents saying two different things like I
<v Speaker 3>don't get it. I'm just saying it's okay, Dad saying
<v Speaker 3>it's not. Lisa says, it's like a wedge issue in politics,
<v Speaker 3>things like immigration and gay marriage, where they really they
<v Speaker 3>might agree on some things, but there's some things particularly
<v Speaker 3>the just will never agree on the opposite's on. But
<v Speaker 3>things well, I can play them against each to prevent
<v Speaker 3>having to do the homework. And he says I would
<v Speaker 3>all life on this planet to prevent doing fractions.
<v Speaker 1>And I was like whatever.
<v Speaker 3>Then we come out from commercial on bart Sea's Marge.
<v Speaker 3>He races back to his room. Oh so much homework,
<v Speaker 3>my childhood slipping away. She feels so sorry from She'll
<v Speaker 3>just go outside and play. Millhouse is already out there
<v Speaker 3>waiting for him with his grapeisoda shaken not stirred so
<v Speaker 3>you can open.
<v Speaker 1>Up and shake it and explode it all over him.
<v Speaker 3>I found a new joy, you know, having cats. There
<v Speaker 3>are so few things in this world. You know, having
<v Speaker 3>cats is a burden at the best of times, sometimes right,
<v Speaker 3>but sometimes funds that just sort of spook them, just
<v Speaker 3>not terrify them.
<v Speaker 1>Just two things.
<v Speaker 3>So I've found that you open up a bottle of
<v Speaker 3>like PEPSI is it? I walking to the cussionary and
<v Speaker 3>its like and just cats scatter.
<v Speaker 1>To go a line from later in this episode, you're
<v Speaker 1>officially associate. I'm glad that the Dando household endorses animal cruelty. No,
<v Speaker 1>it does, but I'm not doing anything wrong. Cat's just hilarious. Man,
<v Speaker 1>They're smart. There also incredibly stupid, one might say, like
<v Speaker 1>human beings. Yes, we're now at the church, which offers
<v Speaker 1>free WiFi. During the sermon, Marge and Homer are both
<v Speaker 1>trying to pray about you know, God will make the
<v Speaker 1>other person see the light yadiad YadA, and they discuss
<v Speaker 1>prayer blocks.
<v Speaker 3>You can't block me. Then we get the itching, scratchy
<v Speaker 3>cartoon house mouse m D I.
<v Speaker 1>Should say, got the massive attack music. The Yes it's
<v Speaker 1>tear drop. I believe, is it.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's very accurate of how an episode of House goes.
<v Speaker 3>So I haven't walked in and said, you've gotta stop
<v Speaker 3>watching cartoons. You're supposed to be doing your homework. And
<v Speaker 3>Marge anyway, Marge is annoyed that he's trying to contradict
<v Speaker 3>her over the top, and they're just they're fighting as
<v Speaker 3>a result of Bart he's not doing its he's told
<v Speaker 3>and they just make angry noise to each other. Then
<v Speaker 3>they go to the mall. March suggests that we should
<v Speaker 3>eat at the Crouching Tiger Hidden egg roll. Homer agrees
<v Speaker 3>with her, and Bart poise good good. We mom lying
<v Speaker 3>like like that to make sure that what if you
<v Speaker 3>wanted to go there, because there's no be out the
<v Speaker 3>end place, it serves no be out.
<v Speaker 1>Looking at this, it's kind of like, and I've said
<v Speaker 1>this many times about many recent episodes, it's a good idea.
<v Speaker 1>It's a germ of a good idea. It's like, my
<v Speaker 1>parents disagree about this one thing, and I can play
<v Speaker 1>them against one another.
<v Speaker 3>That's why I was disappointed. I didn't need the subway aspect.
<v Speaker 3>Can bar do something else?
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, It's like, yeah, that's the idea. Then you work
<v Speaker 1>outwards from that, it just feels like it's got so
<v Speaker 1>many other little bits and pieces that don't add anything
<v Speaker 1>to it, or just feel like I feel like filler. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>a shame.
<v Speaker 3>But this is where Homer says, you want to go
<v Speaker 3>to Moe Express and they fight again. At least it
<v Speaker 3>calls him asociopath, and I don't know. At least I'm
<v Speaker 3>on a path and they're still fighting before bed.
<v Speaker 1>I don't mind if you're be in the shower, but
<v Speaker 1>only if you're taking a shower. No freedom, I have
<v Speaker 1>no freedom around his house. After sex, I'm not talking
<v Speaker 1>to you.
<v Speaker 3>Well, then there won't be any sex.
<v Speaker 2>You can't sex fire me.
<v Speaker 1>I sex quit.
<v Speaker 3>Next morning, they're brushing their teeth, still angry with each other,
<v Speaker 3>and they're basically you know when you've had a scubb
<v Speaker 3>with someone. It's like, I'm just gonna wait it out.
<v Speaker 3>She's gonna apologize to me. I hate apologizing. Then Margine
<v Speaker 3>goes to chat to Ned. I've never had this, I
<v Speaker 3>was apologiz, provides in Ned, and Ned brings up how
<v Speaker 3>he had a fight with more just before she passed
<v Speaker 3>away about the towels, and she was perhaps this isn't
<v Speaker 3>worth it, you know, it's just not worth all the trouble,
<v Speaker 3>and then has a dream about running over March was
<v Speaker 3>is at work once again. Sleeping at worker saved my marriage.
<v Speaker 3>So we cut to back home and Marge's there with
<v Speaker 3>Patty and some were talking about what's going on at
<v Speaker 3>the moment. They say, stick to her guns, because if
<v Speaker 3>you compromise, it won't work, and you never compromise. Eventually
<v Speaker 3>you'll be free and happy like us. And they're eating
<v Speaker 3>chocolate and smoking cigarettes and clearly just coping coping mechanisms.
<v Speaker 3>Yet then they go to see each other. Marge races
<v Speaker 3>out of the house, they see each other in the cars.
<v Speaker 3>They kiss and makeup, and they explain how we can't
<v Speaker 3>let Bart drive us apart because he's the reason we
<v Speaker 3>got married in the first place. The Wigan arrives and
<v Speaker 3>hugs them.
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, so what what what are we even doing?
<v Speaker 3>We come back and Marge's cooked breakfast in bed for
<v Speaker 3>for Homer. Here your breakfast and bed guy, No me neither.
<v Speaker 3>Actually sometimes Nicola.
<v Speaker 1>Likes toast and bed. But yeah, I've never been a
<v Speaker 1>breakfast and make guy, like I mean, you see the
<v Speaker 1>traditional kind of like, hey, moment's mother's that you don't
<v Speaker 1>really see father's get breakfast in bed all that oftens.
<v Speaker 1>Usually it feels like very much a mother's day thing.
<v Speaker 1>It's like, Mum, we're surprised you with breakfast in bed,
<v Speaker 1>because in traditional gender roles, mum is usually one making breakfast.
<v Speaker 1>You're getting a treat.
<v Speaker 3>If you know what that date gets. It gets mum
<v Speaker 3>takes the kids out away and he slips in.
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, I think I might be like Nicola in
<v Speaker 1>terms of I won't like get a tray with bacon
<v Speaker 1>and eggs. It's like watching your stories with a slice
<v Speaker 1>of toast and coffee in bed. That's me. I'll put
<v Speaker 1>a bit of music, have some toast and a cup
<v Speaker 1>of coffee.
<v Speaker 3>So do you go out and make breakfast and go
<v Speaker 3>back to bed? Well, yeah, I've never understood that concept.
<v Speaker 3>I understand people making you breakfast in bed, but I
<v Speaker 3>would never get out of bed, make some breakfast and
<v Speaker 3>then go. Are you one of these people is like
<v Speaker 3>I'm up now, Yeah, I'm up. I'd rather sit on
<v Speaker 3>the couch in peace. You know, I just don't like
<v Speaker 3>the idea going back to bed.
<v Speaker 1>Now. Any opportunity to lie down, I'll take it. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>fair enough, I feel you. You certainly are stop it.
<v Speaker 3>But this, as we said, Marge's made have a breakfast
<v Speaker 3>of a Homer in bed much better than breakfast in
<v Speaker 3>a chair. She then goes to paste his face back
<v Speaker 3>into all the family photos. She's apparently cut them all out,
<v Speaker 3>but it attempts to annoy him by walking in second.
<v Speaker 1>I've got all these.
<v Speaker 3>Fireworks and and be mischievous, and Homer says, you're on
<v Speaker 3>your only a kid, We're not going to bother anymore.
<v Speaker 3>He's like, what do you mean you don't carry anymore?
<v Speaker 3>So he goes to leave. He's a bit confused, and
<v Speaker 3>Marge walks in looking bang it hot rose in the cleavage.
<v Speaker 1>Which Home mistakes for yeah, I got a little Schmitts
<v Speaker 1>in there.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, oh yes. Skinner is now relaxing in his yard
<v Speaker 3>with some hummingbirds, and Barton Millhouse shoots some sugar water
<v Speaker 3>at him.
<v Speaker 1>No attacks during outside of school hours. I don't endorse this.
<v Speaker 3>No, I mean they've been doing it since the beginning
<v Speaker 3>of the Simpsons, but I don't endorse it. It's not
<v Speaker 3>it's not fair as it. No, he says, legally, I
<v Speaker 3>can spank you your bare bottoms here. I'm not at school.
<v Speaker 3>I like that because at school I can't do anything
<v Speaker 3>outside of school. I can do something.
<v Speaker 1>The other way around here.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's that's the joe. Yeah, so they hide this
<v Speaker 3>is some a very patient man. I once waited an
<v Speaker 3>hour and a half for a haircut. What's the longest
<v Speaker 3>you've waited for something? I think we've asked this question before.
<v Speaker 3>For me, it was besides the Force Awakens, where I
<v Speaker 3>waited like seven hours in line, it would have been
<v Speaker 3>we waited four hours for a ride at Universal Studios. Yeah,
<v Speaker 3>not worth it.
<v Speaker 1>That's the thing. Maybe our American friends are because there's
<v Speaker 1>more of more of them. Yeah, yeah, they're very patient
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to queues. I found that when I've
<v Speaker 1>gone to theme parks in the US. It's like, wow,
<v Speaker 1>the waiting really is the hardest part, right because he'd
<v Speaker 1>be standing there for I think if it did anything
<v Speaker 1>like four hours, and that was probably like two to
<v Speaker 1>and a bit.
<v Speaker 3>I think my theory was you go there and you go, right,
<v Speaker 3>how are we going to be here till we were
<v Speaker 3>here for like eight hours, nine hours? Do you want
<v Speaker 3>to be spending sixty percent of that standing in a
<v Speaker 3>line or do you want to be going pick two
<v Speaker 3>or three rides that you really want to go on,
<v Speaker 3>and let's go and just experience the park.
<v Speaker 1>It's good thinking. Yeah. Then then I did get to
<v Speaker 1>go on that ride. I was like going to a
<v Speaker 1>little later and when I went back the bigger.
<v Speaker 3>But so they've run away from Skinner. They're hiding now
<v Speaker 3>and Milhouse takes them to the old Springfield subway station
<v Speaker 3>and they take off in this in a subway or
<v Speaker 3>somehow get it going and sprint for it. All shakes,
<v Speaker 3>the lu shann Stare, all the chandeliers break, the slushies
<v Speaker 3>are going crazy, the radical red and the blueberry blast
<v Speaker 3>at the quicking mar there's a town meeting here for
<v Speaker 3>the emergency earthquake response meeting. It shakes and it becomes
<v Speaker 3>the Emergency quake a Meeting. All the Quakers arrive. So
<v Speaker 3>Quaker is like a religion, right, yeah, it's like a
<v Speaker 3>religious sector.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I saw them and thought that they were Mormons.
<v Speaker 3>They look like Mormons. No, no, no, no, no, sorry.
<v Speaker 3>What's the ones the beard and the hats. That's the
<v Speaker 3>Amish Amish Armish Amish. Yeah, Homer and Marge and now
<v Speaker 3>knitting together reminds me of watching pictures down there on
<v Speaker 3>an old modem.
<v Speaker 1>I liked this as well.
<v Speaker 3>So im is doing the mocking the modem sound. I
<v Speaker 3>think we've all done that at least one point in
<v Speaker 3>our life where we had the nostalgia for the modem
<v Speaker 3>sound at the end, because it's just it's so crazy
<v Speaker 3>to think that that's what we did every day to
<v Speaker 3>get onto the internet. You used to have to get
<v Speaker 3>onto it. Oh yeah, I'm offline now, I'm yeah.
<v Speaker 1>I'm living on the rear.
<v Speaker 3>And it would be nice if we could still be
<v Speaker 3>that way, and you could by putting your phone down.
<v Speaker 3>That's true, but it's like we your brain's wired to
<v Speaker 3>always be on now.
<v Speaker 1>The term that's coming up a lot these days is friction. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>you've got to have a little bit of friction, and
<v Speaker 1>it feels like you've earned something when you've got it.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, yeah, the whole that's friction. It takes you
<v Speaker 1>a little while to it's putting the record on the turntable, yes, exactly,
<v Speaker 1>as opposed to I don't know exactly why it is,
<v Speaker 1>but I can fain it on my phone. It's like
<v Speaker 1>that's a really smooth experience and it smooths out your
<v Speaker 1>brain as a result.
<v Speaker 3>Well, your brain no longer thinks to store things anymore
<v Speaker 3>with this. Yes, it's like, well, I've got the answers
<v Speaker 3>in my pocket, that's right.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you've got Google ub right now, I have.
<v Speaker 3>Indeed, yes, I win this episode of originally aired.
<v Speaker 1>I'll figure it out.
<v Speaker 3>And I'll remember it.
<v Speaker 1>No way whimped it.
<v Speaker 3>But Marge is glad that having a real conversation here,
<v Speaker 3>and that's what we're doing. Having dinner the other night,
<v Speaker 3>it was like, we're just chatting here. It's not about
<v Speaker 3>the kids, not that we don't like the kids. Explain
<v Speaker 3>to me, we're just chatting about life, just having a
<v Speaker 3>conversation with Nick cos Nicholas working from home full time. Now,
<v Speaker 3>we go for walks at lunchtime, were in their phones here.
<v Speaker 1>Isn't this lovely? Just we're just hanging out, just chatting
<v Speaker 1>about whatever.
<v Speaker 3>Barn's disappointed, though they don't care that the earthquake could
<v Speaker 3>have potentially been his fault.
<v Speaker 2>I don't even want to know if I have anything
<v Speaker 2>to do with this mysterious seismic activity of late.
<v Speaker 1>I'm saving my yelling for where it gets some good. Lisa,
<v Speaker 1>you're a wonderful child. But the good work, thanks dad,
<v Speaker 1>But you're so loud. He's turning my ears. Sorry.
<v Speaker 3>I just think that gag would have worked better if
<v Speaker 3>she said maybe, for example, she might have been in
<v Speaker 3>the room already.
<v Speaker 1>And he's like, Lisa, you're doing great.
<v Speaker 3>She goes, Dad, I'm already in the room. But thank you.
<v Speaker 3>At least some acknowledgment that your dad's praising you. Yeah,
<v Speaker 3>it's like your dad's praising you. Yeah, but you're hurting
<v Speaker 3>my ears, Like, oh god, you're.
<v Speaker 1>Miserable, miserable, or just yell back thank you.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Yeah, just make it funny.
<v Speaker 1>Make her in the room, yes, looking for like thank you,
<v Speaker 1>and hey, that's so loud right here, Like just make
<v Speaker 1>it a joke or do you just do a little
<v Speaker 1>pan And she's like, she's sitting right next to you.
<v Speaker 3>It's just everyone's miserable. Then Bart and Nelson are on
<v Speaker 3>the swings. This doesn't really go anywhere. They're swinging and
<v Speaker 3>Bart's explaining how he can't understand why he doesn't feel
<v Speaker 3>a rush anymore. He says something is missing, and Nelson says,
<v Speaker 3>you haven't really pranked your parents if they don't care,
<v Speaker 3>you know, No, one's getting If no one's getting mad,
<v Speaker 3>then are you really being bad? And Lisa overhears this.
<v Speaker 3>This is why you think that she's the one wo's
<v Speaker 3>written the note to double Bart, but she hasn't. Then
<v Speaker 3>Willie points out that the tremors could cause the school
<v Speaker 3>to come down completely because they've been causing all the
<v Speaker 3>cracks in the wall, and Skinner puts up a low
<v Speaker 3>bearing poster hop into a book and Bart overhears this,
<v Speaker 3>and he thinks, oh, this would be a good excuse
<v Speaker 3>to really prank my parents, will prank the town and
<v Speaker 3>get my parents angry. And you think he's got a
<v Speaker 3>Nelson thought bubble, but it's actually Nelson. Nelson Burdie the
<v Speaker 3>window and he's burning textbooks, playing textbooks, so he pushes
<v Speaker 3>the smoke out of the way. Margin then finds the
<v Speaker 3>letter from what I thought was Lisa, explaining that Bart's
<v Speaker 3>subway prank, says we'll have to be good parents for
<v Speaker 3>our son and just worked twice as hard on our marriage.
<v Speaker 3>We come back from the commercial again, Bart is driving
<v Speaker 3>the subway, the school's about to fall down, and really
<v Speaker 3>just wants to QUI quickly finish buffing the floor. Then
<v Speaker 3>Homer says Homer gets to the subway. He looks in
<v Speaker 3>the ladies room and as a sofa there is there
<v Speaker 3>a joke I'm missing. I think it's because they're fans.
<v Speaker 1>I think public bathrooms used to be a little more
<v Speaker 1>lushily appointed. I mean, this looks like a very sort
<v Speaker 1>of it looks nice in twenties, nineteen thirties kind of thing.
<v Speaker 3>It's not too late to bring back the Springfield subway. Still,
<v Speaker 3>I'm serious about this. I think it's the location you
<v Speaker 3>could work with. Sure, But yeah, ladies tours always much
<v Speaker 3>cleaner than men's toilets. True, he's a little more lushly
<v Speaker 3>appointed men's toilets.
<v Speaker 1>Oh disgusting.
<v Speaker 3>Has a toilet at like three quarter time out of
<v Speaker 3>a football game?
<v Speaker 1>Horrific? No, it's seventh circle of all. It's not good. Yep.
<v Speaker 3>He tries pulling the kill switch.
<v Speaker 1>You can't.
<v Speaker 3>Then he envisions Bart's neck being the switch, so he's
<v Speaker 3>choking him. Works, the school is saved. They unfell the flag,
<v Speaker 3>It tips over, hits the school, and it all collapses.
<v Speaker 3>Missus Kane Newson then give a high five. There's no why, yeah,
<v Speaker 3>why why do they do the high five? But also
<v Speaker 3>the school get rebuilt. Next episode is back again? Whatever
<v Speaker 3>margin Homer now young at Bart once again, no TV,
<v Speaker 3>no this, et cetera. And when you're not insight, you're
<v Speaker 3>going to constantly twitter me, even though I have no
<v Speaker 3>idea what Twitter is, and I can learn Bart is
<v Speaker 3>glad that it's being mean again. Then Bart's doing homework.
<v Speaker 3>Can I say, you've got something to say?
<v Speaker 1>I do? Sim is responsible on one of the great
<v Speaker 1>lines about not just modern life but life in general,
<v Speaker 1>Like I used to be with it. Now you know
<v Speaker 1>whatever it is you scares me.
<v Speaker 3>Mused to be with it, but now they've changed what
<v Speaker 3>it was. Yes, what it is and what's it's weird
<v Speaker 3>and scary to me.
<v Speaker 1>Yes, it will happen to you two. This line, even
<v Speaker 1>though I don't know what twitter is and don't want
<v Speaker 1>to let that feels like an exam. The writers are
<v Speaker 1>surrendering in a way. They've turned into Grandpa's Simpson.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and they have Sul'm not quite Grandpa, but they've Yeah.
<v Speaker 3>They would have been in their thirties twenty years ago,
<v Speaker 3>I guess, so earn their fifties now, which is why
<v Speaker 3>I think a lot of the jokes work for you.
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes I go, I don't get to that, and you're like, no,
<v Speaker 3>it's this, and I'm like, ah, I see, because it's
<v Speaker 3>a bit like the no there's working for me. But
<v Speaker 3>I think the life experience sort of relates more to me.
<v Speaker 3>Maybe I'm going through like the having the kids. Yeah,
<v Speaker 3>but Bart's doing his homework now. Lisa says she didn't
<v Speaker 3>write the note you wanted to get caught, and he
<v Speaker 3>misspelled elementary. That's how she realized it was him. And
<v Speaker 3>she promises not to say anything, and he says thanks.
<v Speaker 3>He puts the Book of Chomper poster on her back.
<v Speaker 3>And at the end of that one, it was a
<v Speaker 3>nice little ending there and the Family of the Future
<v Speaker 3>are over the credits and you're just talking about how
<v Speaker 3>you can flush freeze your kids so little. Yeah, that's
<v Speaker 3>the end of this one.
<v Speaker 1>That's the end of Postcards from the Weed.
<v Speaker 3>I enjoyed this a lot more than the color Yellow,
<v Speaker 3>because I feel like this one at least had a purpose.
<v Speaker 1>As I said, I like the central idea of it.
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they explored it as deeply or as
<v Speaker 1>cleverly as they could have. Been good gags in there,
<v Speaker 1>don't get me wrong, but I was a little bit
<v Speaker 1>let down by what do we learn bomb?
<v Speaker 3>So what you learn from postcards from the wedge, mister Davis?
<v Speaker 1>But the but what this episode said, there's really no
<v Speaker 1>such thing as an unwanted boner.
<v Speaker 3>I reckon there might be talk to Jimmy about that.
<v Speaker 3>PADCS is about Nate. From this day forward, your names
<v Speaker 3>will be all right. It's time for the Guy Davis
<v Speaker 3>New Name Championship. That currently the board stands at this
<v Speaker 3>in first position, we have Philip J. Hawkins on nineteen points,
<v Speaker 3>in second position, Nathan Briggs on eleven points, and in
<v Speaker 3>third clever Kyle Muldoon on ten points. Take it away, okay.

<v Speaker 1>be clever. Kyle is now equal second and eleven points.
<v Speaker 1>Well done, Well done, Kyle. Two points goes to atomic Wedgie.
<v Speaker 3>Dave Rand McNally two points. That now moves him up
<v Speaker 3>to ah He's about three points, I believe, yeah, three
<v Speaker 3>points one on Dave.
<v Speaker 1>All those pretzels are moving him up the ladder. And
<v Speaker 1>three points goes to two wrongs don't make him bright.
<v Speaker 3>Two wrongs don't make him right.
<v Speaker 1>Race Beasley with the three point I think that might
<v Speaker 1>be your first three pointer of the season. She is
<v Speaker 1>the Beza.
<v Speaker 3>She's on four points. Now, well done. All right, so
<v Speaker 3>the top leaderboard hasn't really changed all that much. Still,
