<v Speaker 1>Bail is here four finger discount. Ede it is the
<v Speaker 1>May mail bag here at four figure discount. Hi, I
<v Speaker 1>am Brendan Dando and I'm Guy Davis.
<v Speaker 2>I thought you had a little bit of a STANMDA going,
<v Speaker 2>but it is May and it is the mail bag,
<v Speaker 2>so yeah, you were. You were right on the money.
<v Speaker 2>I shouldn't have doubted your Dando, but I very really do.
<v Speaker 1>You do doubt me quite often. Not upsets me, not
<v Speaker 1>to your face. That's my face. Note that's any other
<v Speaker 1>people do as well. I'll be giving Nicholas.
<v Speaker 2>I was like, no, I'm not sure about this dandough guy.
<v Speaker 2>She's like, She's like, oh man, I feel the same way.
<v Speaker 3>I know.
<v Speaker 1>Not true, not true, But I need to talk about
<v Speaker 1>some Simpsons news, answer some of your questions, and have
<v Speaker 1>a good old time. Well hopefully. Yes. Yes, we've already
<v Speaker 1>done our wrap up, our end of the month and
<v Speaker 1>wrap up for south Park. We even checked out our
<v Speaker 1>south Park podcast. I highly advise you do so, because
<v Speaker 1>going down to south Park is a hell of a
<v Speaker 1>good time. We've had a lot of fun. We've just
<v Speaker 1>finished season seven at the show, and the show's just
<v Speaker 1>getting better and better, both podcast wise and Southwark.
<v Speaker 2>I was about to say, do you mean our show
<v Speaker 2>all their show?
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's a great time to check it. Even if
<v Speaker 1>you don't like south Park, just give it a try
<v Speaker 1>south Park. I'm going down to south Park and you
<v Speaker 1>find a link for that in the description of this show.
<v Speaker 1>But how have you been? How's your may been? How's
<v Speaker 1>my may been? Look, it's been good. There's been a lot.
<v Speaker 2>Going on podcasting wise, work wise, personally and professionally. Yeah,
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it seems like it's just zipped by, as
<v Speaker 2>time seems to be doing in the U twenty twenty
<v Speaker 2>five for all of us. But no, I can't say
<v Speaker 2>I've got that many complaints, you know, a little bit
<v Speaker 2>of a existential dread about the state of things and
<v Speaker 2>the potential path of the future.
<v Speaker 1>But otherwise I'm feeling pretty good. I did tell you
<v Speaker 1>today to get off Twitter. I feel like Twitter is
<v Speaker 1>like your home. Twitter's like your go to place. You know,
<v Speaker 1>you're on Facebook, but I feel like you live on
<v Speaker 1>Twitter a lot more than Facebook. And I was saying
<v Speaker 1>to you how Twitter is just the epitome of just negativity. Now,
<v Speaker 1>It's where people go to just vent their frustrations. It's
<v Speaker 1>good for keeping up to date with what's going on,
<v Speaker 1>what people are talking about. But if you live on
<v Speaker 1>it for too long, mate, I've found my mental health
<v Speaker 1>went down the toilet when I stayed on Twitter for
<v Speaker 1>too long.
<v Speaker 2>I find if you curate your feed with the sort
<v Speaker 2>of like minded people and kindred spirits, you're probably doing
<v Speaker 2>it right. I mean you've got to stay in the
<v Speaker 2>following section as opposed to.
<v Speaker 1>The four years that's true.
<v Speaker 2>Actually, yeah, for you section, it's like, no, this is
<v Speaker 2>not for me, daddy, elon, what are you thinking?
<v Speaker 1>What do you think of me? Man?
<v Speaker 2>But if you know you're in the following section, it's like, Hey,
<v Speaker 2>I'm hanging out with a couple of my cool buds here.
<v Speaker 1>We'll just talk sit about various.
<v Speaker 2>Things and usually that's all right. The problem I'm finding,
<v Speaker 2>and I don't want to sort of get myself in
<v Speaker 2>trouble with any algorithms or anything like that. The problem
<v Speaker 2>is mainly YouTube in a lot of ways. Because I
<v Speaker 2>like YouTube very much, I'm probably using it more than
<v Speaker 2>I'm using regular TV these days when it comes to
<v Speaker 2>my really visual wants and need.
<v Speaker 1>I do we watch Judge Duty and Border Security. I'm
<v Speaker 1>still on that gravy train.
<v Speaker 2>But this is the problem with YouTube and maybe a
<v Speaker 2>lot of things. But it's not so much if you
<v Speaker 2>like this, we'll give you the algorithm is not in
<v Speaker 2>childre enough to go, oh, I you like this, maybe
<v Speaker 2>like this. Like if you like this, you're gonna like this, this,
<v Speaker 2>and this, And they're all the same thing. They're different
<v Speaker 2>people talking about the same topic. So if, for instance,
<v Speaker 2>you tune into one video about so let's say AI
<v Speaker 2>is coming for your job, it's like.
<v Speaker 1>Oh, it's already came, it's gone, and it's gone. God
<v Speaker 1>is your job.
<v Speaker 2>But well, this person seems either informed or they seem like, oh,
<v Speaker 2>this will be an interesting and fun rant, and you
<v Speaker 2>tune into that, you give it maybe five minutes ago,
<v Speaker 2>and this person sucks all.
<v Speaker 1>About the thumbnail. Yeah that's the hook, Oh it is.
<v Speaker 1>That's the other thing. We'll talk about that in just
<v Speaker 1>a second.
<v Speaker 2>Because we got the video and I'll be able to
<v Speaker 2>sort of replicate it. But yeah, then that's all you get.
<v Speaker 2>It's like you got twelve months to prepare for an employment,
<v Speaker 2>but he's going for your job, so what and that's
<v Speaker 2>all you get.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And it's like I watched one video had a
<v Speaker 1>bath of cat because a kitten had shipp through its firm.
<v Speaker 1>How to a bath of kitten? Right now? Everything is
<v Speaker 1>just like his videos a kitten's being bathed, and I
<v Speaker 1>was like, I just cleaned it. I don't need this anymore.
<v Speaker 2>But the other thing is, and ye know, you've got
<v Speaker 2>a wealth of YouTube creators who either doing reaction videos.
<v Speaker 2>This is something I found this coming up, the reaction
<v Speaker 2>to shows like like we do except we do it
<v Speaker 2>much better and differently, or commenting on current events, and
<v Speaker 2>they all tend to be the same event. But there
<v Speaker 2>are so many YouTube thumbnails that are basically this. You know,
<v Speaker 2>they'll have been created by AI or photoshop yeah yeah,
<v Speaker 2>or someone on fire but that's exactly right. But they'll
<v Speaker 2>be a little bit going on behind them, but the
<v Speaker 2>creator will be in the center.
<v Speaker 1>Going yeah, looking at all confused or shopped yeah.
<v Speaker 2>And I find it incredibly off putting.
<v Speaker 1>Well it's me when I'm you know, when I see
<v Speaker 1>the reaction videos to South Like episodes and I'm going this, guys,
<v Speaker 1>these guys are adding nothing. They're contributed that is laughing
<v Speaker 1>at the screen, and they're doing there much more successful
<v Speaker 1>than me. That breaks my heart. So I'll try to
<v Speaker 1>avoid those. Well, yeah, understandable. I mean we did we
<v Speaker 1>ever try to do one of those, well these fun mails,
<v Speaker 1>one of those reaction videos. Reaction whenever did reaction video
<v Speaker 1>now because we do reviews anyway, commentaries and stuff commentary.
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of YouTube, though, I am now uploading reels every
<v Speaker 1>single day from the shows that we do. Here FFing
<v Speaker 1>a discount gone to the South Park, so check it out.
<v Speaker 1>Make sure you subscribe to us on on the YouTube.
<v Speaker 1>So I've gone through they wouldn't let us monetize the channel.
<v Speaker 1>I've gone through and I have removed things that might
<v Speaker 1>have copyrighted stuff, and I've applied again and they've said
<v Speaker 1>you can monetize it at the end of next month.
<v Speaker 1>So if you watch your stuff on YouTube, you're helping
<v Speaker 1>the show, so you're getting free content and you're helping
<v Speaker 1>us make money. So you can't sport us on Patreon.
<v Speaker 1>That's another way you can now help us at forming
<v Speaker 1>a discounts watching our videos on YouTube. Check out dander
<v Speaker 1>gaming the system just to gain that system. What a
<v Speaker 1>lord plus you get to look at us. Let's let's
<v Speaker 1>let's get into the mailback with one question. Good got
<v Speaker 1>lot of Simpsons News. As you hanging you ask me
<v Speaker 1>about my mail my mate, So we had Star Wars Elliott,
<v Speaker 1>we have not. We didn't watch Empire Strikes Back yet.
<v Speaker 1>It's just been been a big week with kids, just
<v Speaker 1>ups and downs and just kitting shit. Yeah, kitting shit,
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, it's just been a bit chaotic here. But
<v Speaker 1>I'm it's just sitting there ready to go. I really
<v Speaker 1>want to film Elliott when he sees that revealed at
<v Speaker 1>the end of Empire Strikes Back. So I know the
<v Speaker 1>Star Wars month, I promise it hasn't quite happened yet,
<v Speaker 1>but it is coming, I do promise. But yeah, so
<v Speaker 1>we've had a lot of questions come through this month.
<v Speaker 1>I don't forget. You can get in touch with us.
<v Speaker 1>It's mail bag at four finger discount dot com dot au.
<v Speaker 1>Or we do post in the Patreon group unfortunates. Probably
<v Speaker 1>give an update there, so I'll let everyone know that
<v Speaker 1>the page has returned. I was able to get the
<v Speaker 1>page back and post on there and whatnot, and then
<v Speaker 1>the next day I was a I was informed that
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't post via the page anymore. I couldn't post
<v Speaker 1>in groups anymore for a month because I was an
<v Speaker 1>admin of an old page at least to help out
<v Speaker 1>with Simpsons quotes, and nobody gets anymore. Their page are
<v Speaker 1>suspended for a reason. Apparently they were suspended for impersonating
<v Speaker 1>a celebrity, even though they're just a Simpsons page that
<v Speaker 1>just does nothing really that and hadn't really posted in years.
<v Speaker 1>It was just like randomly just suspended. But because I
<v Speaker 1>was an admin of that page, I now can't post
<v Speaker 1>on my other pages. So luckily I'm able to log
<v Speaker 1>in as Nickoler and post on the main page, but
<v Speaker 1>I can't post in the page young group this month.
<v Speaker 1>So if you're wondering why I haven't been communicating much
<v Speaker 1>at all, that's the reason. But normally I would be
<v Speaker 1>posting in the Pagreon group asking for mailbag questions. That's
<v Speaker 1>another way you can get in touch with us. But
<v Speaker 1>if you're not a supporter of ours on pageon, you
<v Speaker 1>can contact us mailbag at four figure discount dot com
<v Speaker 1>dot au. Now, when I read out these names going forward,
<v Speaker 1>I'm just gonna read it the first name of the person.
<v Speaker 1>I'ven't read it the last name is because some.
<v Speaker 2>Of these surnames are very difficult to pronounce.
<v Speaker 1>Yes, and two privacy for some people, and if it's
<v Speaker 1>their question, I don't know who it is. I mean
<v Speaker 1>old point. So the first one he's from Justin. Justin says,
<v Speaker 1>which Simpson's character did you crush on as a kid,
<v Speaker 1>if any, and which one do you crush on now
<v Speaker 1>as an adult? Well, I think I.
<v Speaker 2>Think listeners to the show will we'll have noted Dando's
<v Speaker 2>rampant horniness when it comes to Marge. Sometimes I agree, I'm.
<v Speaker 1>He's not my crush though, Oh no, I do like March.
<v Speaker 1>I think she's great, she's a great No, she's you
<v Speaker 1>take her home to mum. But I think is there
<v Speaker 1>anyone more of a catch, in my opinion now as
<v Speaker 1>an adult watching The Simpsons than missus k ednar Kabobble.
<v Speaker 1>She is incredibly smart, she's incredibly kind, and she's DTF.
<v Speaker 1>What more could you want in a woman?
<v Speaker 2>I'm working really hard to come up with an alternative
<v Speaker 2>meaning of the acronym DTF something involving teacher which has
<v Speaker 2>the tea in it, but dirty teacher, Think dirty teaching female?
<v Speaker 1>Yes, there you go. The thing is, there's a reason,
<v Speaker 1>there's a reason you only get one chance with Ednarker bubble.
<v Speaker 2>Oh yes, I would say if I have a crush
<v Speaker 2>as a grown up. I don't think I had any
<v Speaker 2>crushes as a chart.
<v Speaker 1>Well, you were twenty one when the show.
<v Speaker 2>As a young adult, shall we say, I'm finding myself
<v Speaker 2>leaning towards Lindsay Nagel. Okay, yeah, get the feeling she
<v Speaker 2>you like.
<v Speaker 1>You, boss you around? Well, yeah, know what to do.
<v Speaker 2>I would hit my KPIs if you know what I mean.
<v Speaker 1>And she seems know what I mean. She seems like
<v Speaker 1>she'd be a man eater as well. Oh absolutely yeah.
<v Speaker 2>And this would not be a long lasting relationship, certainly,
<v Speaker 2>not my bad, but I get the feeling. Would be
<v Speaker 2>one of those things that you there's a great life.
<v Speaker 2>Have you seen the movie Hella high Water. You know
<v Speaker 2>there's a great line in it where one of the
<v Speaker 2>characters is sweet talking like a hotel clerk and wanted
<v Speaker 2>me the Dylan in your last days at the retirement home.
<v Speaker 2>You're gonna you're gonna remember me in giggle. So that's
<v Speaker 2>that's what you think about Lindsay Nagel. You'd be sort
<v Speaker 2>of like here I am ninety two, gumming myferred and
<v Speaker 2>you know, I remember that time Nagel.
<v Speaker 1>She was not that would be me and Lindsay. She
<v Speaker 1>strikes me as that kind of gal. Yeah, yeah, I'll
<v Speaker 1>completely buy into that as well. I think as a kid,
<v Speaker 1>because I wasn't kid watching The Simptoms growing up. I
<v Speaker 1>also I always had a mad crush on Laura Powers,
<v Speaker 1>the next door neighbor who moved in. She was a
<v Speaker 1>bit older.
<v Speaker 2>Voice by Sarah Gilbert from Roseanne.
<v Speaker 1>Correct. Yeah, So as I was growing up, I always
<v Speaker 1>I had this neighbor who was a bit older than me,
<v Speaker 1>who was I sort of like looked up to, and
<v Speaker 1>she would know keeping company and blah blah blah. And
<v Speaker 1>she eventually she sort of got too old. She was like,
<v Speaker 1>I'm not looking after these little kidney more. But she
<v Speaker 1>was like my babysitter. She I was at a crush
<v Speaker 1>on her, right, Yeah, And I saw Laura Powers and
<v Speaker 1>I was like, that is pretty much that's what I had.
<v Speaker 1>You know, it was never gonna work, but I always
<v Speaker 1>had this. It was almost like she she gave me
<v Speaker 1>my first CD. She showed me, you know, PATV for
<v Speaker 1>the first time. She so many of my first except
<v Speaker 1>for the main one with this next door neighbor. I
<v Speaker 1>was like, can weep. Can we took off all the
<v Speaker 1>first because Laura powers, She's no, she's a tom boy,
<v Speaker 1>she can hold her own, she's tough, she's smart, she's funny,
<v Speaker 1>she's just she's awesome.
<v Speaker 2>She's the package. Yeah, she is the boy page. Yeah,
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna be a to be very careful. How about
<v Speaker 2>her phrase this next thing. I am not viewing this
<v Speaker 2>from the perspective of what a guy I know. I'm
<v Speaker 2>viewing this perspective of eight year old, eight year old guy.
<v Speaker 2>Or that's what that's okay, young guy who was discovering
<v Speaker 2>girls for the first time, someone like Jessica Lovejoy.
<v Speaker 1>Who appears to be you know, you go love Joy,
<v Speaker 1>but I wouldn't melt in her mouth. And then oh
<v Speaker 1>she's evil. Oh bad news, she's bad news. It's star
<v Speaker 1>wars Man.
<v Speaker 2>You're taking your first step into a larger world, and
<v Speaker 2>you realize, oh, wait a minute, how can suddenly hacken someon.
<v Speaker 1>That feels so good? Feels so bad?
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, I mean, I remember, you know, being a
<v Speaker 2>child and sort of you know, you'd have a crush
<v Speaker 2>on a girl who'd be a little bit only as
<v Speaker 2>you were saying, like someone like the real life Laura
<v Speaker 2>powers and they realized the power they have and it's like,
<v Speaker 2>might just rip your heart your chest and like, yeah,
<v Speaker 2>I hold them a half for a second.
<v Speaker 1>Oh look at a beating squish.
<v Speaker 3>Oh no, I need that. I needed to live and
<v Speaker 3>to feel. So did this ever happen to me? Who
<v Speaker 3>can say? But yeah, that's that's another one. So yeah,
<v Speaker 3>I'm covering both ends of the spectrum here. That would
<v Speaker 3>be my childhood crush and for my adel relationship. Yes,
<v Speaker 3>Lindsay Nagel, she sort of floats from company to the company,
<v Speaker 3>doesn't she.
<v Speaker 1>She's the modern day I want to say, absolute girl boss. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>she's like a successful Linel Huts. Oh yeah, I suppose
<v Speaker 1>Lone Huts. No, but he did various things as well,
<v Speaker 1>didn't he. He was a lawyer, but he was also here,
<v Speaker 1>there and everywhere. Yeah. Yeah, maybe Gill. She's a successful Gill. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>because you see Gill doing a lot of different things
<v Speaker 1>and he's never any good at it.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but no, Lindsay has one job in terms of like, no,
<v Speaker 2>she's your marketing person, but you'll do it for various companies.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, so she's a consultant, let's say, free agent.
<v Speaker 1>She gets it done. Yeah.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like the man you were talking about before we
<v Speaker 2>started recording day, the wrestler who just you know, became
<v Speaker 2>a free agent is like mom bus good.
<v Speaker 1>Happy, and I'm making more money. Indeed, it's much like
<v Speaker 1>Dan respect the hustle. Now, if you want to hear
<v Speaker 1>us talk more about childhood heartbreak, you can check out
<v Speaker 1>our review of raisins from Going Down to South Pike
<v Speaker 1>where standards fire and fight, What's what's the turn? But
<v Speaker 1>generally said dumped where I'm breaks she breaks up, break
<v Speaker 1>breaks up, breaks up. Yeah, with the stand and it's
<v Speaker 1>hilarious reason and the goth kids are in it. Which
<v Speaker 1>the goth kids are in it. It's got raised and
<v Speaker 1>it's got everything you need in South Pike episodes. So
<v Speaker 1>check out Going Down to South Park. Will do one
<v Speaker 1>more question and we'll get into some Simpsons news. This
<v Speaker 1>one's from Rachel. There's a lot of episodes that are
<v Speaker 1>rehashes of classic era episodes. But what episodes would you
<v Speaker 1>like to see have a second part where the story
<v Speaker 1>from the first episode continues on will you got first? Okay,
<v Speaker 1>so a classic episode I think probably could have kept going.
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't have minded, maybe not so now I can
<v Speaker 1>try it now. But just a continuation of tweeny two
<v Speaker 1>short films about Springfield that format, because they've never really
<v Speaker 1>done it since they've done format bending episodes. But just
<v Speaker 1>a day in the Life of Springfield. I'm glad we
<v Speaker 1>got an episode like that in the Golden era, but
<v Speaker 1>I think it would be nice to sort of have
<v Speaker 1>another one of those where it's just spending a day.
<v Speaker 1>It's like being a fly on the wall and just
<v Speaker 1>buzzing around Springfield and seeing what's going on.
<v Speaker 2>Forgive me, I'm terrible, terrible is but the episode? Is
<v Speaker 2>it least a substitute?
<v Speaker 1>Mister Berstram, Yeah, what is the what's the episode? Told him?
<v Speaker 1>Is at least it's a substitute. Yeah, yeah, I got
<v Speaker 1>it right. Yeah, good for me.
<v Speaker 2>I think it would be interesting. And this is sort
<v Speaker 2>of related to something that happened to me just recently.
<v Speaker 2>On Monday, we're recording this. On Wednesday, I was up
<v Speaker 2>in Melbourne for the memorial service for the late author
<v Speaker 2>of young adult fiction, John Marsden. John Marsden was one
<v Speaker 2>of my teachers when I was when I was a
<v Speaker 2>young man about thirteen to fifteen to sorrow, when the
<v Speaker 2>war Begame Tomorrow when the War Begang series. Yeah, very
<v Speaker 2>very popular, very acclaimed. Yeah, a lot of the things
<v Speaker 2>that the people were talking about there, that the speakers
<v Speaker 2>of the service were talking about, were he was a
<v Speaker 2>very good listener to when he was working with kids,
<v Speaker 2>and he would sort of cherry pick bits of conversation
<v Speaker 2>or little bits of character trait from the kids that
<v Speaker 2>he worked with and taught and turned them into these
<v Speaker 2>great books. And I think it'd be interesting if like
<v Speaker 2>mister Berstram became like a mister Marsden kind of guy,
<v Speaker 2>and I wrote a series of young adult novels like
<v Speaker 2>say Twilight or Hunger Game or whatever. And Lisa recognized, like, hey,
<v Speaker 2>Katon has Abad, Wait a minute, that's me, Lena Sampson,
<v Speaker 2>wait a minute. And you know who's a bit of
<v Speaker 2>a smart Alegon knows everything and all this kind of stuff.
<v Speaker 2>I'm the central character in this, And I don't know,
<v Speaker 2>maybe there's she feels aggrieved that like, hey, he ripped
<v Speaker 2>off my life to you know, create this series of books.
<v Speaker 1>They're all doing a long.
<v Speaker 2>I'm not making any money out of it, or that
<v Speaker 2>he writes a book and kind of like it revealed
<v Speaker 2>too much about me and everyone knows this as me
<v Speaker 2>or something like that.
<v Speaker 1>I think that could be kind of interesting. It could
<v Speaker 1>be that she comes across she finds out another school
<v Speaker 1>that she finds out where he is right and she
<v Speaker 1>goes to visit him, and she finds out that he
<v Speaker 1>gave another student a piece of paper that says that
<v Speaker 1>you are so and she's heartbroken because that was so
<v Speaker 1>personal to her. I do think that would take away
<v Speaker 1>from the first episode, though, because it feels so personal,
<v Speaker 1>and that's true, that moment means so Mister Berkshire was
<v Speaker 1>a character who has only really appeared once properly in
<v Speaker 1>the show. He has appeared in a more recent episode,
<v Speaker 1>but the main one is less Substitute season two. That
<v Speaker 1>moment you are Lisa to him means so much to
<v Speaker 1>so many Simpsons fans. It's a good point.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, maybe you don't want to sort of mess with
<v Speaker 2>that too much if it does have that much meaning.
<v Speaker 1>I like to think that.
<v Speaker 2>It does that that foundation you could build something interesting
<v Speaker 2>off that. But at the same time, do you want
<v Speaker 2>to mess with the hopes and dreams of people who
<v Speaker 2>saw this in their formative views. Who knows, there's a
<v Speaker 2>lot of artistic responsibility that comes with telling stories.
<v Speaker 1>It's one of those moments that makes you tear up,
<v Speaker 1>even if you send it a million times.
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, beautiful episode. Yeah, and it's one that sticks
<v Speaker 2>with you.
<v Speaker 1>There's a handful of Simpsons episodes that just genuinely stick
<v Speaker 1>with your Simpsons moments. That's one of them. I think
<v Speaker 1>Homer looking at the Stars is another one where you
<v Speaker 1>just watch it and to go. It's almost like you
<v Speaker 1>sit back and reflect on people you've lost as well. Sure,
<v Speaker 1>when that's happening, and I know that's been used for
<v Speaker 1>the when some and so dies, it's always become memiphied
<v Speaker 1>now that moment, but go back to that and it's
<v Speaker 1>just like, wow.
<v Speaker 2>Oh it's lovely, it's very well, Yeah, they're very confident
<v Speaker 2>about it's just sitting in the silence at the end
<v Speaker 2>of that and letting you feel what home is feeling.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, just the score in the background is beautiful. And
<v Speaker 1>for me, though, the moment that makes me that hits
<v Speaker 1>me the hardest now as a father, married, father of
<v Speaker 1>two kids, is the do it for her moment. Of course,
<v Speaker 1>it is impossible to watch that now and not cry
<v Speaker 1>literally can't hold That is just I think that is
<v Speaker 1>the most sweetest moment in the history of the show,
<v Speaker 1>because you were just you weren't expecting it at the time. No, absolutely,
<v Speaker 1>not no. You almost the whole episode is built up
<v Speaker 1>of Maggie's the forgotten one. It's all about button Lesa.
<v Speaker 1>At the end, you go, oh, no, no, Maggie means
<v Speaker 1>so much to Homewer. Even Maggie the character, she doesn't
<v Speaker 1>get she's she's a major character in the show, but
<v Speaker 1>you don't really see the relationship all that Often it's
<v Speaker 1>always like a punching a She's more a prop. She's
<v Speaker 1>a punchline more than anything when it comes to relationship
<v Speaker 1>she has with other people. But seeing that O, no know,
<v Speaker 1>Homer's a father who just absolutely adores this little girl.
<v Speaker 1>It's just it's incredible.
<v Speaker 2>Maggie often feels like a bit of a cutaway to
<v Speaker 2>a gag.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.
<v Speaker 2>It's like it's like, say, oh, you're making a movie
<v Speaker 2>and occasionally you know Robert Rodriguez, the maker from Dusty
<v Speaker 2>Dawn and all that stuff in Desperado and all that.
<v Speaker 2>When he was making his first movie on Mariachi, he
<v Speaker 2>took a lot of footage of his dog and he
<v Speaker 2>knew that because when the action was like, oh, I
<v Speaker 2>needed to cut away. I'm gonna cut to the dog,
<v Speaker 2>and everyone's gonna go, oh, that's nice. So I'm not
<v Speaker 2>saying that Maggie's exactly like that, but I mean often
<v Speaker 2>they'll cut away to Maggie doing a little bit of
<v Speaker 2>a reaction shot or like, eh, so, yeah, you're not
<v Speaker 2>really a fully drawn, fully fleshed out character, she's a baby,
<v Speaker 2>but yeah, used in situations like that or used in
<v Speaker 2>that way that you're talking.
<v Speaker 1>About, Oh yeah, incredibly effective.
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, you're right, that moment is even for someone
<v Speaker 2>who has no kids on their own, it's like, yeah,
<v Speaker 2>you've got to have a meaning, you've got to have
<v Speaker 2>a purpose, you've got to have a reason for doing something. Yeah,
<v Speaker 2>and well, kid's as good a reason as anyway.
<v Speaker 1>Yes, Now, some Simpsons news hit me. This one probably
<v Speaker 1>doesn't mean that much to you because you're a Lego fan,
<v Speaker 1>but they've just announced, finally, for the first time in
<v Speaker 1>what feels like a decade, if not more, new Simpsons. Lego.
<v Speaker 1>All right, they've got the Quickie Mart, they've got the
<v Speaker 1>Simpsons House. I haven't told you about this. What do
<v Speaker 1>you think the new Simpsons lego. Is it is a
<v Speaker 1>building of sorts? Is a place you go eat? Oh?
<v Speaker 1>Is it Krusty Burger? It is Crusty Berger? Indeed?
<v Speaker 2>Okay, then I was almost going to say Gilder Traffle.
<v Speaker 2>But I must admit my first my initial thought.
<v Speaker 1>Was a nuclear plant. But I thought either the school
<v Speaker 1>or the nuclear power plant would be the way to go.
<v Speaker 1>Power plant probably more so. I think it'd be a
<v Speaker 1>fun set to build. Yeah, but Krusty Berger does sound
<v Speaker 1>like a good choice to make. Look at a lie,
<v Speaker 1>I'm kind of disappointed in you in it. I just
<v Speaker 1>don't think there's well what constitutes good lego to you? Well,
<v Speaker 1>I just do something? Is it? Really? It just seems
<v Speaker 1>kind of bland, Like you look aside and it's just
<v Speaker 1>it's just a fast food restaurant. You know, there's no
<v Speaker 1>you get the City's house to get Bart's room, you
<v Speaker 1>got Lisa's room, you got the living room. There's all
<v Speaker 1>these major sort of key sort of locations within the
<v Speaker 1>Simpson's house. This one is just just booths and it's
<v Speaker 1>just a counter, you know, is it?
<v Speaker 2>Is it a new school fast food eatree like the
<v Speaker 2>ones we tend to be very upset about they look
<v Speaker 2>like flat back okeya buildings.
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, all no. But it does have the
<v Speaker 1>squeaky voice team hope. So yes, And you do get
<v Speaker 1>a new Homer and you have him shoveling. He's gruel,
<v Speaker 1>I know's he's grease in the back, things like that,
<v Speaker 1>and you get the crusty car. I know. Just compared
<v Speaker 1>to the Quickie Mart and compared to and the Quie
<v Speaker 1>Mart is the same. It sort of just felt like
<v Speaker 1>a store. But I think the quick as a location
<v Speaker 1>was just cool.
<v Speaker 2>It's not a little more personality. Yeah, the Krusty bigger way,
<v Speaker 2>because we're more used to it. I think we spend
<v Speaker 2>more time at the quick Amount that we haven't, say
<v Speaker 2>Krusty Berger.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so the Quickie crust the burger one. I'm not
<v Speaker 1>blown away by it. It's fine. I think more. I
<v Speaker 1>think it's my own fox. I think I was just
<v Speaker 1>disappointed that it wasn't the power plant. Okay, ye where
<v Speaker 1>you're coming from. But a lot of the people, a
<v Speaker 1>lot of sentiment seems to be that why wasn't this
<v Speaker 1>the power planned? So I think the next one might
<v Speaker 1>be the power See, I was in sync. It was
<v Speaker 1>my first thought. Yes, I think it just seems like
<v Speaker 1>the obvious one or MOS.
<v Speaker 2>Actually Most seems like the more obvious now that you
<v Speaker 2>bring it up, now that you say that word, yeah,
<v Speaker 2>you can buy.
<v Speaker 1>You can buy almost like fake fake version of Moe's
<v Speaker 1>lego on like Ali Express or wherever you want to
<v Speaker 1>buy those fake legos from names. You can get a
<v Speaker 1>school on there as well, and they look pretty good,
<v Speaker 1>you know. So I think a genuine Mo's one, or
<v Speaker 1>a school one or a power plant would be the
<v Speaker 1>way to go in my opinion, I like the idea
<v Speaker 1>of MOS. Yeah, Most just seems like the place you'd
<v Speaker 1>want to build a lego for right, sure had the
<v Speaker 1>panda in the back. And what would you have in
<v Speaker 1>a Mo's lego though? It's gonna have a couple of
<v Speaker 1>the Booze, the love medic Grandpa.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, talk to Anthony Ketis and Flee about getting you know,
<v Speaker 2>red not Chili Pepper figures in there.
<v Speaker 1>That'd be cool, wuldn't it. You're obviously gonna have flaming
<v Speaker 1>Mos or will have a flaming Moment accessory. I'd be
<v Speaker 1>cool if you could have alternating science. So one says MOS,
<v Speaker 1>one says flaming Mos. You can make it flaming. We
<v Speaker 1>can make it mos. You'd have to have the fit.
<v Speaker 1>The women's toilet would have to have be Moo's office.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, jarrapickle onions. Yeah, yeah, that's it.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. A lot of stuff, a lot of stuff you
<v Speaker 1>can do. Oh yeah yeah. Duft Man would have to
<v Speaker 1>be part of it. Oh, yes, so that would be
<v Speaker 1>my idea. It's funny. I clicked on Krusty Berger Lego
<v Speaker 1>and then the first one I clicked on just to
<v Speaker 1>look at it turn out to be ol Express. I
<v Speaker 1>didn't even realize it. It looks exactly the same. But
<v Speaker 1>that's available. Yes, that's available on Lego dot com. Dot
<v Speaker 1>are you? I think just dot Lego dot com. You
<v Speaker 1>can just you can pre order it now. I haven't
<v Speaker 1>pre ordered it yet, a lot of money. I think
<v Speaker 1>it's run that pass Nickela, let's go past. Let's got
<v Speaker 1>Lego dot com and see what it costs for in Australia.
<v Speaker 1>So it's three hundred and thirty dollars. Oh, I can
<v Speaker 1>no longer pre order it. Oh that sold out. Um,
<v Speaker 1>that's a whole lot of Lego. Yeah, I can't order
<v Speaker 1>it now, coming soon forth of June, so it's all
<v Speaker 1>pre sold out. I guess, well, there you go. I
<v Speaker 1>won't be pre ordering it. It's not too bad, really,
<v Speaker 1>I guess it comes to Lego sets. That's true. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>it is official. We have finally launched Bob's Pods, a
<v Speaker 1>Bob's Burger's podcast, reviewing every episode of the series exclusively
<v Speaker 1>on our Patreon. We dissect the relationships, the themes, the
<v Speaker 1>burger specials, and everything else that goes into making Bob's
<v Speaker 1>Burgers one of the most loved animated series today. So
<v Speaker 1>if you want to sink your teeth into one of
<v Speaker 1>the tastiest podcasts going around, join the four Finger Discam
<v Speaker 1>family today at patreon dot com slash four Finger Discam. Anyway,
<v Speaker 1>all right, let's get into another question and we'll get
<v Speaker 1>to some more news a little bit later. So this
<v Speaker 1>next one here comes from Steve. So, Steve, do you
<v Speaker 1>think it's time? Even though they did it as part
<v Speaker 1>of a recent trios of horror, do you think it's
<v Speaker 1>time that we have a fully fledged Bob's Burgers slash
<v Speaker 1>Simpson's crossover episode. I think both shows could really relate
<v Speaker 1>to each other, having Homer attend Bob's store. I don't know,
<v Speaker 1>very different in comedy they are, but I think they
<v Speaker 1>can make it work. The short bit they did for
<v Speaker 1>the I think Simpsons World was the segment Trios of
<v Speaker 1>Horror maybe two or three years ago. It worked, and
<v Speaker 1>I was surprised by it. I went, I know this,
<v Speaker 1>you could make this happen. Could you draw it out
<v Speaker 1>for twenty two minutes? Of of course you could. Of
<v Speaker 1>course you can make it. We could, I think should.
<v Speaker 1>I think you're more I think it'll be better than
<v Speaker 1>the Family Guy crossover because the Family Guy crossovery when
<v Speaker 1>it happened, I went, these were two different styles, and
<v Speaker 1>seeing the Family Guy characters were in the same scene
<v Speaker 1>with the Simpsons characters, for me was a putoff because
<v Speaker 1>I went the Simpsons for me went was worse. But
<v Speaker 1>it was trying to be this, and you really saw
<v Speaker 1>the comparisons of the style of humor when you had
<v Speaker 1>Stewie they were doing. I know. It was one thing
<v Speaker 1>that always stuck with me. It was them doing a
<v Speaker 1>prank call to Mo's Bart and Stewie right, and Bart
<v Speaker 1>does his usual innocent you know, fate name whatever, and
<v Speaker 1>I think Stewart just calls up and says, hey, Mo,
<v Speaker 1>your sister's dead or someone's dead, and I went, that's
<v Speaker 1>that's family guy. Yeah, and that is why I don't
<v Speaker 1>watch Family Guy.
<v Speaker 2>You'll sometimes hear about, Oh, wouldn't be great if so
<v Speaker 2>and so cross over with so and so, and you think,
<v Speaker 2>oh my god, yes these are Yeah, this is chocolate
<v Speaker 2>and the peanut butter.
<v Speaker 1>This is marvelous.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, two great taste tastes and great together. I don't
<v Speaker 2>that's very rare for me that that kind of thing works.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.
<v Speaker 2>I hear about those two like two different elements and go.
<v Speaker 1>Oh, it would be great if they work together.
<v Speaker 2>I mean I hear about, you know, the Simpsons Bob
<v Speaker 2>Burger's shows that I both enjoy and I feel like,
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, I think you could. You would really
<v Speaker 2>see the work that went into trying to make these
<v Speaker 2>two things colne and coexist.
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking, you know, idea just came to me. Then
<v Speaker 1>it could be that a Krusty Burger is opening up
<v Speaker 1>around the corner or whatever from Bob's Burger's. He's bothered
<v Speaker 1>by this. That's your way of incorporating the Simpsons affect
<v Speaker 1>into it. But this new store cut at the grand
<v Speaker 1>opening is bringing back the witch or something that only
<v Speaker 1>at that store. So Homers, as common kids were going
<v Speaker 1>to this store to get this burger, this new exclusive burger.
<v Speaker 1>He ends up going there, and then he comes across Bob,
<v Speaker 1>who was at the front protesting or something that we
<v Speaker 1>don't want this all. Louise is trying to sabotage it
<v Speaker 1>or something like that, something like that, And then Lisa
<v Speaker 1>and Luise get along in that regard. But Bart and
<v Speaker 1>Jen get along. I don't think they would. No, I
<v Speaker 1>think Bart would find him really annoying. So we'll have
<v Speaker 1>to find a story for Bart Marge again with Linda.
<v Speaker 1>I'm not too sure.
<v Speaker 2>Actually, I think those two would actually get along pretty well.
<v Speaker 1>Bill House and Tina, Oh, would that work? I think
<v Speaker 1>I think it could work. And then you just have
<v Speaker 1>Homer and Bobb just become best buddies, and Homer ends
<v Speaker 1>up trying to take on Trusty Burger with Bob.
<v Speaker 2>There you go, you brought I've come around to your way?
<v Speaker 2>Is that the new Simpsons movie? I've ember seen the
<v Speaker 2>bobis Burger's movie of you, I have not yet.
<v Speaker 1>No, that's gonna be reviewed exclusively on our Patreon, though
<v Speaker 1>you know it's also exclusively on our Patreon. Tell me
<v Speaker 1>Bobb's Pods. That's correct, Bobbisberger's podcast. You check it out,
<v Speaker 1>the Burger of the Day. Yes, Burger of the Day.
<v Speaker 1>We just did Secret Counts the latest episode, so check out.
<v Speaker 1>If you like Bobbis Burgers, you like our Bobbis Burger's
<v Speaker 1>podcast available on our Patreon. All right, another question, this
<v Speaker 1>one comes from Michelle. Winter is fast approaching you Aussies.
<v Speaker 1>It's already here. Yeah, what is your favorite winter pastime? Nicholas,
<v Speaker 1>Hot chocolate with a couple of marshmallows.
<v Speaker 2>Cranking out the heater, a cup of coffee and a pastry,
<v Speaker 2>finding something good on Netflix or in my own personal
<v Speaker 2>viewing library.
<v Speaker 1>Do you like winter mornings? You've got cold if you're
<v Speaker 1>indoors though, Do you have a fireplace? Because we didn't have.
<v Speaker 1>The last one thing I wish I had was a fireplace.
<v Speaker 1>I love the smell when we're walking down the street
<v Speaker 1>in the winter morning or winter afternoon and he can
<v Speaker 1>smell someone's fireplaces burning. You go, oh, I need this
<v Speaker 1>in my house. That is nice.
<v Speaker 2>I midtally, I need to give someone a call because
<v Speaker 2>I think the pilot lighters out. I'm like, guess heat, Oh, yeah,
<v Speaker 2>you need to get that fixed a s I do indeed,
<v Speaker 2>because yes, I've been firing out the little electric heaters
<v Speaker 2>and I don't know something about My house is very,
<v Speaker 2>very cold, and they're like, oh so hard to eat this.
<v Speaker 1>Up with your guy.
<v Speaker 2>Winter mornings are they're fine. Sometimes they are less than fine.
<v Speaker 2>I do appreciate so, like if I've had the cleverness
<v Speaker 2>to say, I've woken up at like five in the morning,
<v Speaker 2>quick turn turn the heater on, so when you actually
<v Speaker 2>get out of bed, it's gonna be and toasty.
<v Speaker 1>I don't often think that way. I used to love
<v Speaker 1>having showers at my uncle Darren's place, patron Saint Uncle Darren. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>because they had the heater lights in the bathroom. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>show like it's still warm. It's like I never left.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.
<v Speaker 1>I miss having because we've got a ducted heating, right,
<v Speaker 1>so you only really feel it on you if you're
<v Speaker 1>sitting underneath it. Right. I miss having a not even
<v Speaker 1>it's just a gas gas heater, but just being able
<v Speaker 1>to sit in front of it. Oh I got a
<v Speaker 1>shower or whatever, I was laying down in front of
<v Speaker 1>the heater, having the heat blasting onto you. I missed that.
<v Speaker 1>Oh nothing better, Yeah, yeah, although I thinks better. But
<v Speaker 1>that's pretty awesome.
<v Speaker 2>Okay, there are some things better.
<v Speaker 1>But as a kid, though, you'd race out the bath,
<v Speaker 1>out of shower and you'd run and you sit in
<v Speaker 1>front of the heater with your towel on it. It's just, yeah,
<v Speaker 1>the best. So I do miss I miss sitting in
<v Speaker 1>front of a heater.
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure, sure I still learn that on occasion. But honestly,
<v Speaker 2>you're nothing better than just sort of crawling under the
<v Speaker 2>cover zone. So you've got everything done that you need
<v Speaker 2>to get done. You've got a little time up your sleeve.
<v Speaker 2>What time of day we talking in the afternoon?
<v Speaker 1>Afternoon? Yeah, it's like, you know what, I think I'm
<v Speaker 1>just gonna lie on the bed from it.
<v Speaker 2>You know what, got this blanket on the bed, I've
<v Speaker 2>got this rug on the bed.
<v Speaker 1>I think I'm going to crawl to that. Oh my god,
<v Speaker 1>Oh oh, this feels so good. Base He's like, motherfucker,
<v Speaker 1>better be room for me up there. That's true.
<v Speaker 2>He gets his little nestle on good times. Great classic kids,
<v Speaker 2>that one.
<v Speaker 1>You're right though. Winter has started early here, I mean
<v Speaker 1>it's a week early. It's not fast. We're not We're
<v Speaker 1>not in the first godamn week of winter yet. But
<v Speaker 1>I've been getting the hot water bottles out put in
<v Speaker 1>the kids' beds, and now like this is the The
<v Speaker 1>idea of a hot water bottle is just like so
<v Speaker 1>great to the kids.
<v Speaker 2>That's the other thing when you mentioned winter. Yes, I
<v Speaker 2>have two a broken out the hot water bottle, had
<v Speaker 2>it in the bed last night.
<v Speaker 1>It's like so yeah, so good. So okay. Another question,
<v Speaker 1>all right, This one comes from Cooper. Cooper says from
<v Speaker 1>the UK. If you had the option to drive through
<v Speaker 1>Springfield on a Saturday afternoon with the windows down or
<v Speaker 1>a nice warm Saturday night with the windows down, which
<v Speaker 1>are you choosing? Oh, you can drive around Springfield in
<v Speaker 1>the afternoon or drive around Springfield.
<v Speaker 2>Of a night nighttime. I like the nighttime.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's an interesting question, isn't it. It is like
<v Speaker 1>the way your brain works, Cooper. I think you'll see
<v Speaker 1>a lot of more or different insanity. I think if
<v Speaker 1>you walk around, if you drive around at daytime, it'd
<v Speaker 1>be a different vibe. I like the idea of driving
<v Speaker 1>around at night and just seeing every one out partying
<v Speaker 1>or having you know, maybe I'd probably not if I
<v Speaker 1>had the absolute choice, I probably would go daytime. I
<v Speaker 1>think daytime is more chances of just seeing Springfield being Springfield,
<v Speaker 1>if you're putting it that way.
<v Speaker 2>Sure, I guess I'm just thinking about generally how I
<v Speaker 2>like to drive when if I'm driving around sight seeing nice.
<v Speaker 1>Nice warm nights with the windows, I met the window
<v Speaker 1>would be cool. Cool music playing on you on your castereo.
<v Speaker 1>What would you be seeing? I'd like to not drive
<v Speaker 1>past like the Aztec Theater or the Android, not the
<v Speaker 1>the arcade. What's the ark noise Land Arcade? At night?
<v Speaker 1>Just seeing the bright lights of Springfield, Sure that would
<v Speaker 1>be cool, but just driving around, Well, people are behaving
<v Speaker 1>differently after day as well. Yeah, you're going to a
<v Speaker 1>different type of people. I think you get more a
<v Speaker 1>better idea of what Springfield is driving around on a
<v Speaker 1>Saturday afternoon. Nough, don't you reckon? Oh yeah, I just
<v Speaker 1>seeing the kids being kids, And certainly both had their virtues.
<v Speaker 2>Man, I'm not suggesting one over the other, but I
<v Speaker 2>like to know, I love the nightlife.
<v Speaker 1>I like the boogie. Yes, all right, some more news.
<v Speaker 1>So this one here comes from comic book dot Com
<v Speaker 1>and they originally spoke with our man Matt Salmon. Our
<v Speaker 1>dear friend, and he says, oh, he's my friend. Now,
<v Speaker 1>that's nice, he's our friend. Yes. He reveals some details
<v Speaker 1>about the new season. So the latest season, season thirty six,
<v Speaker 1>just ended for The Simpsons, and he's revealed some details
<v Speaker 1>for season thirty seven. So he says, The Simpsons has
<v Speaker 1>been officially renewed for not only season thirty seven, but
<v Speaker 1>three additional seasons to take it all the way through
<v Speaker 1>to season forty, which we discussed last month. So to
<v Speaker 1>speaking to Cracked, Simpsons show runer Matt Salmone dropped a
<v Speaker 1>big tease for what's to come in the new season.
<v Speaker 1>Alongside teasing some of the characters who will be getting
<v Speaker 1>spotlights of their own in the coming season, there's also
<v Speaker 1>a tease of more Disney Plus exclusive episodes hitting in
<v Speaker 1>the near future too. He says, we're having fun digging
<v Speaker 1>deeper into the side characters because we're doing a Chalmers
<v Speaker 1>episode where he becomes a Menisphere kind of guru selling
<v Speaker 1>male beauty products. HAA. We have a really terrific Lisa
<v Speaker 1>and Marge show about the culture of thrifting and why
<v Speaker 1>that's so popular with kids. Another side character who we're
<v Speaker 1>going deeper into is Professor Frink. We have a little
<v Speaker 1>bit of his emotional backstory, which is exciting as well.
<v Speaker 1>Plus there's one about the Quimby family, so that's.
<v Speaker 2>I'm there for the Quimby episode. Absolutely. I liked the
<v Speaker 2>idea of the charm was one. I think that's good.
<v Speaker 1>I feel like the Simpsons is finding its footing again.
<v Speaker 1>There was a period there, the Dark Ages. What was
<v Speaker 1>it called? Is it the Dark Times? It was over
<v Speaker 1>one call, yeah, for the Empire. So there was a
<v Speaker 1>period where I just felt that the Simpsons was just
<v Speaker 1>there and it was just not putting out content that
<v Speaker 1>really fans wanted. They've won a lot of people back,
<v Speaker 1>and I'm in particularly really excited to see I'm gonna
<v Speaker 1>throw this out there. I think it's because Sale has
<v Speaker 1>more control of what they're going on. Now someone's down, man,
<v Speaker 1>someone knows what Simpsons fans want. Now he's got more
<v Speaker 1>control over things. I think we're starting to see more
<v Speaker 1>of what the Simpsons should be in twenty twenty five
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty six. So I'm excited for those kind of
<v Speaker 1>side characters getting their own episodes. Yeah.
<v Speaker 2>No, Matt seems like he's very much on the ball
<v Speaker 2>in terms of.
<v Speaker 1>He wants the Simpsons. He loves the Simpsons. He wants
<v Speaker 1>the Simpsonstist succeed. It's not like they've got people working
<v Speaker 1>on the show that don't want it to be good.
<v Speaker 1>He wants it to be the best it could possibly be.
<v Speaker 2>No, absolutely, but you know it sounds like he's working
<v Speaker 2>from a solid position of we've got this wealth of
<v Speaker 2>characters who we're familiar with, maybe don't know or you know,
<v Speaker 2>they contain multitudes. Yes, we haven't had a look at yet,
<v Speaker 2>and also a matching of the characters. Would be interested
<v Speaker 2>in seeing with stuff that's in the zeitgeist, that's in
<v Speaker 2>the current conversation. I'll be very much looking forwarded. Like
<v Speaker 2>I said, I mean, any episode about the Quimby family
<v Speaker 2>I think would be great fun, particularly in these modern
<v Speaker 2>political in this modern political climate, Freddy, It's gonna be great,
<v Speaker 2>isn't it?
<v Speaker 1>Bringing back Freddy Quimby Man? Some more news? Actually, get
<v Speaker 1>some more questions now, so we get back to some questions.
<v Speaker 1>This one here says is from Steph. She is from,
<v Speaker 1>doesn't say where she's from. Steph says, you're now up
<v Speaker 1>to season twenty, so you've now revisited many episodes of
<v Speaker 1>the Simpsons. When do you genuinely think that the golden
<v Speaker 1>era actually ended? So it seems to go to for
<v Speaker 1>the golden year of the Simpsons is seasons one to ten.
<v Speaker 1>People say one to nine, but many say one to ten,
<v Speaker 1>season tens.
<v Speaker 2>Well, some even say like three to ten.
<v Speaker 1>Three to ten, Yeah, you're right, yeah, So they say
<v Speaker 1>three to ten is like the golden ear of peak Simpsons.
<v Speaker 1>There's two ways of looking at it. I do agree
<v Speaker 1>that's where Mike Sculley took over the show in season
<v Speaker 1>at nine, and many people think that's where the birth
<v Speaker 1>of Jerkass home and it became a real cartoon the
<v Speaker 1>Simpsons in season nine. I think my favorite ear of
<v Speaker 1>the Simpsons season seven eight. I will say there are
<v Speaker 1>still good episodes through to I mean still now with
<v Speaker 1>finding good episodes. I think after season twelve you can
<v Speaker 1>say it's still really really good. There's some tripe in there,
<v Speaker 1>don't get me wrong, but I think it's still really
<v Speaker 1>really got. The season twelve, what's he like the teen era?
<v Speaker 1>It starts getting a bit shaky. You've got some great
<v Speaker 1>episodes in there, but it starts getting more shaky than not,
<v Speaker 1>and it doesn't feel like the Simpsons that it once was.
<v Speaker 1>If I've been completely honest, though, I do agree. I
<v Speaker 1>do think that two, not three. Two through to nine
<v Speaker 1>is peak Simpsons. What you define is a golden era,
<v Speaker 1>I don't know the golden era. I guess you could say,
<v Speaker 1>is that that when it was at its peak. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>that's not to say that anything through like nine through
<v Speaker 1>to twelve thirteen isn't good. It's still a good era,
<v Speaker 1>it's just not quite what to through nine was. No,
<v Speaker 1>that's right.
<v Speaker 2>I mean, well, you've got to have your apex period,
<v Speaker 2>haven't you. But yeah, yeah, I think by the time
<v Speaker 2>your teenage years, you'll regarded as kind of success. Not
<v Speaker 2>that you're cruising or coasting on your laurels or resting
<v Speaker 2>on your aurels or anything like that, but you've hit
<v Speaker 2>this weird sort of stage where it's like, oh, you know,
<v Speaker 2>with the boss or at the top of the mountain,
<v Speaker 2>all that kind of stuff. But we've also got people
<v Speaker 2>coming for the throne. Yeah, we have to do we
<v Speaker 2>stay how we are? Do we evolve? Do we adjust?
<v Speaker 2>Do we try to be like something that's new or
<v Speaker 2>you know, and you know, is that us selling out
<v Speaker 2>or is that are just moving with the times. It's
<v Speaker 2>a very complicated thing.
<v Speaker 1>South Park change things. A lot of people look to
<v Speaker 1>Family Guy and say, oh, because Family Guy became successful,
<v Speaker 1>Simpsons trying to become Family Guy. South Park was that
<v Speaker 1>it's certainly more South Park and its south South Puck
<v Speaker 1>was the reason Simpsons weren't the cool animated show anymore. Yeah.
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, I feel a bit bad for or the Simpsons
<v Speaker 2>in that regard because, yeah, it's not like the Simpsons
<v Speaker 2>had to change anything about it. So because they're two very,
<v Speaker 2>very different shows in so many ways. And yeah, if
<v Speaker 2>the Simpsons was thinking, oh, we have to alter our
<v Speaker 2>tone or our voice or something like that in order
<v Speaker 2>to remain relevant, remain popular.
<v Speaker 1>Or whatever, I feel that's a bit of a shame. Yeah. Oh,
<v Speaker 1>I know, there's there's a room for both. I have
<v Speaker 1>brought this up many times, and Mike was Mike Scully
<v Speaker 1>when we interviewed and was talking about it how he
<v Speaker 1>incorporated the nine to five mentality when he came to
<v Speaker 1>the Simpsons writer's room for that peak period. It was no,
<v Speaker 1>you lived in the in the writer's room until we
<v Speaker 1>got what we wanted right, And even then they weren't
<v Speaker 1>quite happy, but they spent their lives in that writer's room.
<v Speaker 1>Mike Scully is like, no, this is a job. You've
<v Speaker 1>got families to go home to. And I think the
<v Speaker 1>Simpsons suffered as a result because they didn't have people
<v Speaker 1>they might have gone, there's ten minutes left, let's just
<v Speaker 1>go with this game.
<v Speaker 2>It's a good enough mentality.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah, And that started to seep into the
<v Speaker 1>show to the point where the good enough mentality became
<v Speaker 1>just the mentality. Yeah.
<v Speaker 2>And you realize, you know, even if you're not like
<v Speaker 2>a comedy professional, even a comedy connosseewer, you kind of
<v Speaker 2>go that joke needed one more draft. You could have
<v Speaker 2>punched that up just a little bit more. Yep, you
<v Speaker 2>settled for the second or third idea that you came
<v Speaker 2>up with. It's like, no, you needed a little more time,
<v Speaker 2>just to put a bit more polish on that.
<v Speaker 1>And don't get me wrong, I think it's great that
<v Speaker 1>they incorporated the nine to five mentality the Simpsons if
<v Speaker 1>it meant that the Simpsons were still going to be
<v Speaker 1>seventy five percent of what The Simpsons is instead of
<v Speaker 1>one hundred percent. And people get to go home to
<v Speaker 1>their families at five o'clock every night. Yeah, I'm all
<v Speaker 1>for it, you know what I mean. I'm not paying
<v Speaker 1>for this entertainment. They're still entertaining me. But these people
<v Speaker 1>deserve lives. They have kids at home. I think now
<v Speaker 1>becoming a father, I think I see it more from
<v Speaker 1>that perspective of it. You don't want to be you
<v Speaker 1>want the Simpsons a bit the best it can be,
<v Speaker 1>but you also want to make sure that people work
<v Speaker 1>on the show aren't burnt out either, and they have lives.
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, I get where you're coming from. Well, where
<v Speaker 2>we're approaching. I guess life and create everything very different
<v Speaker 2>positions in that you're a family man, I'm not. I
<v Speaker 2>don't want to say, oh, look, it used to be
<v Speaker 2>better when in certain ways, but I think you can
<v Speaker 2>see as companies, producers, whatever, have become more cognizant and
<v Speaker 2>more sensitive about hey, work life balance, don't burn yourself out,
<v Speaker 2>all that kind of thing. I think you know, there
<v Speaker 2>was certainly a time and a place when it's like,
<v Speaker 2>no eyes on the prize, get it done, stay late, no,
<v Speaker 2>you know, no dinner breaks anything like that. Get the
<v Speaker 2>work done. I don't like you like me, and I
<v Speaker 2>don't know what's that saying you know, pressure makes diamonds. Look,
<v Speaker 2>there's still good stuff out there, absolutely, And I guessing
<v Speaker 2>I'm I'm guessing a lot of stuff that I really
<v Speaker 2>really enjoy has been made under circumstances.
<v Speaker 1>It's like, guys, it's just TV. Let's not kill ourselves here.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but I get there also the feeling that there
<v Speaker 2>was a lot of great stuff. Maybe it's like, no,
<v Speaker 2>we're staying until it's fucking done, until we cannot improve
<v Speaker 2>there's anymore.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. And if I watching those earlier Simpsons, don't you. Yeah. Yeah.
<v Speaker 2>So look, it's a tough one. I mean, no one
<v Speaker 2>wants to work themselves to death. But at the same time,
<v Speaker 2>if you work yourself to death, then you've got something.
<v Speaker 1>That's why four figure discounts so good. Because I'm up
<v Speaker 1>till two three am in the morning editing the ship,
<v Speaker 1>don't I know. Alrighty, So one more question that we're
<v Speaker 1>getting some more news this when he.
<v Speaker 2>Comes from Where's the name is from?
<v Speaker 1>Matt? That says, what is your favorite Simpsons tie in merch,
<v Speaker 1>whether it be a fast food happy meal toy or
<v Speaker 1>something out of a chip packet like the Tazos as
<v Speaker 1>you like to call them. In Australia. What is your
<v Speaker 1>favorite Simpsons Tye in merch. I'm a big fan of
<v Speaker 1>Tazos as a kid. If you go up the nineties,
<v Speaker 1>Tazos were the thing that we all collected. What was
<v Speaker 1>your what was the thing you guys collected was a
<v Speaker 1>bubblegum cards, stickers, Oh yeah, cards, cars, Yeah, trading cards
<v Speaker 1>were very big for us. That's still big for my generation.
<v Speaker 1>But then we had Tazo's in the chip packets and
<v Speaker 1>that was like so cool. But no, cards have all types.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, when certainly when I was a kid, I mean, sorry,
<v Speaker 2>we're not really talking Simpsons, Merchi Matt, but my.
<v Speaker 1>Apockets, Simpsons tying his cards on the wall there, there's
<v Speaker 1>all that stuff.
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, but this is not something that I was buying
<v Speaker 2>when when the Simpsons was on, and I was the
<v Speaker 2>age that I was when it happened. Yeah, but yeah,
<v Speaker 2>certainly growing up, I mean yeah, footy cards every footy season,
<v Speaker 2>you'd just go wild for it. You'd spend all your
<v Speaker 2>pocket money on it. Dad didn't get free footy cards. No, no, okay.
<v Speaker 2>The band Kiss were very big with trading cards. Really, yeah,
<v Speaker 2>Because there was a phase in the late seventies early
<v Speaker 2>eighties when Kiss was just like huge, especially huge in Australia.
<v Speaker 1>You got to respect that hustle.
<v Speaker 2>Oh my goodness. Yeah, they were putting their brand on
<v Speaker 2>just about everything. But yeah they had trading cards.
<v Speaker 1>And comic books and everything, didn't they.
<v Speaker 2>Oh they had everything, but certainly trading cards. But and
<v Speaker 2>Star Wars cards. Star Wars cards were huge.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, I was a big fan of trading cards
<v Speaker 1>as a kid. You look back now and you think why.
<v Speaker 1>But it was just fun to collect, wasn't it.
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, absolutely. I mean it was a real catch
<v Speaker 2>them all, that's the thing. And it was a real
<v Speaker 2>social experience as well, because like you'd meet it, you'd
<v Speaker 2>meet a recess and that I'll give you two and
<v Speaker 2>so and sover that for that one.
<v Speaker 1>You're not getting that. Oh I'm getting that. Let's make
<v Speaker 1>a deal.
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, trading cards were probably the very big thing.
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Yeah, I have memories of I said, the tasos
<v Speaker 1>CC's had these three D sort of motion Taso ones.
<v Speaker 1>They went around discs. They were little rectangle ones and
<v Speaker 1>if you collected them all there were little pieces of
<v Speaker 1>like a puzzle. So I think each one had like
<v Speaker 1>sixteen cards and you get a little album and you
<v Speaker 1>put them in and if you had them all it'd
<v Speaker 1>make a little picture. They were pretty cool. They were
<v Speaker 1>in CC's and I remember Simpson's Natalla glasses because all
<v Speaker 1>through the supermarket recently, and Nicholas like, do you think
<v Speaker 1>kids would like Natala? I thought maybe. I said, let's
<v Speaker 1>see what glasses have got this time, And they don't
<v Speaker 1>do it anymore. It used to be you buy Natala,
<v Speaker 1>it'd be in a glass jar. Once you finish the Natala,
<v Speaker 1>you get to kick the glass and used to have
<v Speaker 1>a lot of simp one's doing that, and they don't
<v Speaker 1>do that anymore. I thought, what a clever marketing campaign.
<v Speaker 1>It was buying the teller. You get the tailor and
<v Speaker 1>you get a glass out of it. Yeah, so I
<v Speaker 1>still have them from when else a kid? The Simpsons
<v Speaker 1>and teleglasses they were great as well. So and there's
<v Speaker 1>been some really good I.
<v Speaker 2>Have bad news, Dan, your cat has just knocked them
<v Speaker 2>off the shelf.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me. It seems like the Simpsons
<v Speaker 1>were always tied in with hungry jacks in Australia king
<v Speaker 1>in America. So whenever you get Simpsons merchandise, it was
<v Speaker 1>usually from Hungry Jackson. I had this Simpsons pencil case.
<v Speaker 1>It was about I don't know, twenty five centimeters long
<v Speaker 1>little tin that you put your pens and your pencil
<v Speaker 1>and your sharpener and stuff. And I use it at
<v Speaker 1>Primar School for like three years. That's fucking great. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>so Simpsons time match is pretty pretty fun. All right,
<v Speaker 1>some more news. So recently it was announce that Pamela
<v Speaker 1>Hayden is retiring or like last year, she's retiring from
<v Speaker 1>voicing Millhouse no longer doing that. They finally have revealed
<v Speaker 1>who the new voice of Millhouse is going to be.
<v Speaker 1>Tell me yeah, So she was the voice of the
<v Speaker 1>latest episode of the season finale, but she voiced an
<v Speaker 1>older version of Millhouse. Doesn't say if she's going to
<v Speaker 1>be voice new younger version of Milhouse. Just says she's
<v Speaker 1>going to be voicing Milhouse. So the first time we
<v Speaker 1>heard her, she was voicing in and older Millhouse in
<v Speaker 1>a flash forward. Her name is Kelly McLeod, So McLeod. Previously,
<v Speaker 1>she appeared on The Simpsons in twenty twenty two in
<v Speaker 1>the season thirty three episode But the Cool Kids, she
<v Speaker 1>performed the song two Badgers One mind in the app
<v Speaker 1>which also starred The Weekend and Michael Rapper, Paul Rapperport Rapperport. Yes,
<v Speaker 1>she's a musician. She began her career as a member
<v Speaker 1>of the rock band Private Life, which released two albums
<v Speaker 1>produced by Eddie Van Halen and Ted Templeman. The band's
<v Speaker 1>song Touched Me was featured on the soundtrack of both
<v Speaker 1>Wayne's World and Gremlin's to the New Batch ho It Moly,
<v Speaker 1>So she is showbiz lifer. Yeah. In twenty and nine,
<v Speaker 1>McLean McLeod sorry acted in the short film Slice of
<v Speaker 1>Pie and spent a decade with another band, the Sweet Potatoes.
<v Speaker 1>She released a solo album, Wide Open, in twenty twenty one.
<v Speaker 1>So a really left field choice. Absolutely, Usually they choose
<v Speaker 1>a famous comedian or whatnot, And no, they've obviously just
<v Speaker 1>gone for someone and they felt was probably best for
<v Speaker 1>the role. Well that's right, I mean.
<v Speaker 2>And the other thing is, yeah, you know, you'll find
<v Speaker 2>a lot of voice actors actually have fairly wide ranging careers.
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I'm thinking of say, Elizabeth Daily, who was
<v Speaker 2>you know, the voice of Babe, but she was also
<v Speaker 2>like an actor in various things e g.
<v Speaker 1>Daily, eg Daily. Yes, Yeah, also known as Elizbeth Dawie. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>she was. He's Tommy Pickles, Yeah, she was in Dottie
<v Speaker 1>and Pee's bigger than Yeah. Four figure discount is brought

<v Speaker 2>By the way, great doco on HBO in the States
<v Speaker 2>on the Max service here in Australia called Pee Wee
<v Speaker 2>as Himself. We reviewed Pee Wee's Big Adventure, I think
<v Speaker 2>for no on the movie Guy with Malton Davis, but
<v Speaker 2>just us talking about it. You were a little bit
<v Speaker 2>amused by it. I thought it was great. This is
<v Speaker 2>a really good documentary about Pee Wee, Herman and Paul Rubens,
<v Speaker 2>the man who created.
<v Speaker 1>And played him.
<v Speaker 2>Essentially, it's a really interesting look into the pea phenomena,
<v Speaker 2>but also just the active creation in that regard. It's
<v Speaker 2>really really good, quite quite moving, actually, I got to say,
<v Speaker 2>so well worth checking.
<v Speaker 1>Out for friends fans. E. G. Daly is the singer
<v Speaker 1>of Smelly Cat. Correct.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so, yeah, you'll find people like that who have
<v Speaker 2>just sort of not necessarily drifted from role to role.
<v Speaker 2>But as we've talked about, you know, you do a
<v Speaker 2>little bit of this, little bit of that, a little
<v Speaker 2>bit of so and so, and it all comes together
<v Speaker 2>to form quite a fulfilling body of work and career.
<v Speaker 1>She's most predominantly known as a voice actor though oh yeah,
<v Speaker 1>absolute powerpuff Girls, Rugrats Acy, but she also has like
<v Speaker 1>a singing career as well. Yeah she has and all
<v Speaker 1>that kind of stuff. Yes, it wasn't one of her
<v Speaker 1>songs in Peewee's. No, one of her songs was in
<v Speaker 1>a major film, I think so, although I can't remember
<v Speaker 1>off the top anyway. But yeah, So it turns out that, yeah,
<v Speaker 1>Callum McLoud is the new voice of mille Us, at
<v Speaker 1>least in the finale. I'm not sure if it means
<v Speaker 1>going forward as a normal Millhouse, but we shall soon
<v Speaker 1>find out.
<v Speaker 2>I think they're going to be announcing it. I imagine
<v Speaker 2>we'll be hearing a bit more from Kelly macloud forward.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, because I've found the recent replacements for the voice
<v Speaker 1>actors haven't quite been right for me. That ain't it, Chief, No,
<v Speaker 1>it just feels like they've hired their buddies. You know.
<v Speaker 1>They sound like somebody. It sounds like you're mate trying
<v Speaker 1>to do a doctor Hibbitt or it sounds like you're
<v Speaker 1>mate trying to do a Karl. It doesn't sound like Carl, all.
<v Speaker 2>The hosts of four Finger Discount imitating various characters.
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, so that is the new voice of Millhouse.
<v Speaker 1>So excited to see what she sounds like with normal
<v Speaker 1>Millhouse voices. Nice, good on your land on that gig, Kelly, Yes,
<v Speaker 1>get in the back, let's do a few more questions
<v Speaker 1>and we'll get out of here. Okay, this one's for you, guy,
<v Speaker 1>This one's from Ted. Ted says guy, So this one's
<v Speaker 1>for you. As I just said, do you have any
<v Speaker 1>recent autobiographies that you can recommend it that I read?
<v Speaker 2>Oh my goodness, that's a very good question, Ted.
<v Speaker 1>You're always talking about I'm reading this biography. I'm reading
<v Speaker 1>this biograph at the moment.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, not so many autobiographies.
<v Speaker 1>Who was the one Billy Joels for My Wife or something?
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, I haven't read the one by Christie Brinkley,
<v Speaker 2>although that does sound very interesting.
<v Speaker 1>Oh, Ted, you've put me on the spot. What's one
<v Speaker 1>that you read last?
<v Speaker 2>The ones that are currently on the shelf, either I've
<v Speaker 2>started or I'm about to start. There was the one
<v Speaker 2>by Albercino called Sunny Boy, which is yeah, I've read
<v Speaker 2>a bit of that and that was pretty good. Stanley
<v Speaker 2>Tucci seems to have like a real career in not
<v Speaker 2>so much acting these days, although he still acts, but
<v Speaker 2>he's more like I'm GoF to Italy or I'm about
<v Speaker 2>to write a book about my life or whatever. He's
<v Speaker 2>just written one called Things I Ate in one Year
<v Speaker 2>bed that he's a really good storyteller.
<v Speaker 1>So I enjoyed that a whole lot.
<v Speaker 2>And any good documentaries you could recommend, well, well just recommended, yeah.
<v Speaker 1>Something on Netflix. You've seen TV guy, Let's go t T.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, yeah, you would be aware of course of R. L. Stein,
<v Speaker 1>the writer of Goosebumps. Yeah yeah, he's written also these
<v Speaker 1>other things called fear Street. They think of him more
<v Speaker 1>of a grown ups late Teams eighteens perhaps, although yeah,
<v Speaker 1>I mean Netflix has made a bunch of movies. Of those,
<v Speaker 1>there's one that's just dropped the street. Oh is that
<v Speaker 1>Fear Street prom Queen? Oh yeah, I have seen that. Actually, yeah,
<v Speaker 1>I didn't put two and two together. It's okay, look
<v Speaker 1>there are four kids essentially. No, it's for for adults. Okay,
<v Speaker 1>it's more for adults because it gets pretty bloody.
<v Speaker 2>It's like a it's set in nineteen eighty seven, so
<v Speaker 2>it's got that whole sort of eighties teen movie thing
<v Speaker 2>going on.
<v Speaker 1>Is this the anthology ones where they did like a
<v Speaker 1>nineties one as well?
<v Speaker 2>It is, although this is different because they did Fear
<v Speaker 2>Street and there were three movies that were sort of interconnected.
<v Speaker 2>Now this one's more of a standalone.
<v Speaker 1>Okay, yeah, I do like the idea of anthology though.
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, yeah, but this one is I think I
<v Speaker 2>wrote somewhere. Look, these are corny and cheesy, but they
<v Speaker 2>go down.
<v Speaker 1>Easy's some that's goodsepops for you though, that's very much so. Yeah.
<v Speaker 2>So look, if you're in the move for something that
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, there's got some good gory gags. In
<v Speaker 2>it one or two decent one liners, but basically a
<v Speaker 2>lot of photogenic teens are getting cut the hell up.
<v Speaker 1>He sounds like what I grew up horror, knowing horror
<v Speaker 1>to be though. Oh yeah, yeah, it's kind of a
<v Speaker 1>throwback to that stuff because even the Friday the third
<v Speaker 1>franchise and Halloween, Halloween maybe not so much, but Friday
<v Speaker 1>that they were corny.
<v Speaker 2>They're all the same. Yeah, and they're all very corny.
<v Speaker 1>You're right. I think Halloween was more of a serious
<v Speaker 1>look at that. I mean, it was still silly, but
<v Speaker 1>I think I believed Halloween more than i'd believe Jason Vohes,
<v Speaker 1>like I believe Makolm Myers was a more realistic than
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, Jason Vohes. If that makes sense, it does, absolutely, Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>Child from the Damn absolutely but ted.
<v Speaker 2>Look some other older berry I recommend that I haven't well,
<v Speaker 2>I've read these while back, but certainly Mike Nichols a
<v Speaker 2>life I had, very interesting one called Miss May does
<v Speaker 2>not exist about Mike nichols gredit partner Elaine May.
<v Speaker 1>Very good stuff.
<v Speaker 2>And I'm about to start one called The Past to Paradise,
<v Speaker 2>which is about Francis Ford Coppler and especially the making
<v Speaker 2>of Apocalypse now supposedly very very good, looking forward to
<v Speaker 2>cracking that one.
<v Speaker 1>Alright, now, I'm to jump into the Patreon group because
<v Speaker 1>you posted this morning asked for some questions. Let's see
<v Speaker 1>if anyone responded, because I was unable to do so
<v Speaker 1>because of the whole the algorithm, the metter. Okay, so
<v Speaker 1>we've got two ones quickly A sent because the very
<v Speaker 1>last minute. All right, so Femas says, describe how you're
<v Speaker 1>able to convince guy to come on board money? What
<v Speaker 1>can I say? No?
<v Speaker 2>No, I mean people are always asking you how did
<v Speaker 2>this podcast come about? And you know, and Thursday, I
<v Speaker 2>was working at pop Culture back in what twenty seventeen?
<v Speaker 2>I think it was twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen.
<v Speaker 1>I started in early. No, I started early twenty seventeen,
<v Speaker 1>all right, so and I started not long after you, Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>about a year tho, I reckon, I really might be
<v Speaker 1>twenty eighteen you started. You think you could have been
<v Speaker 1>there for a while because I was taught you how
<v Speaker 1>to do shit. Remember, well that's true, okay, yes, whatever,
<v Speaker 1>whenever it was, it doesn't okay.
<v Speaker 2>Anyway, my first pop Culture they pop me down next
<v Speaker 2>to Dando, who says, call me Dwande, and I'm like,
<v Speaker 2>shouldn't I be calling you by your first name?
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

<v Speaker 2>get to talking about the shit that I always talk about,
<v Speaker 2>and we realized.
<v Speaker 1>Hmm, it's chocolate and peanut at the time.
<v Speaker 2>Now, But he was doing the show with Mitch at
<v Speaker 2>that stage, but then Mitch decided he wanted to strike
<v Speaker 2>out and examine new things. So yeah, I think I
<v Speaker 2>was broad on board and that was it.
<v Speaker 1>Can you talk, guy? And You're like, I can talk
<v Speaker 1>for money.
<v Speaker 2>I was like, fine, sometimes I talk for love, but
<v Speaker 2>mostly I talk for money.
<v Speaker 1>No, no, So yeah, oh, of good.
<v Speaker 2>Dann I mentioned the fact that you know, there are
<v Speaker 2>patrons and I'll throw us a little bit of cash,
<v Speaker 2>and like, hey, happy to do it. I mean, I'd
<v Speaker 2>appeared on Four Finger Discounts a few episodes just as
<v Speaker 2>a video as a guest doing things like that. It
<v Speaker 2>didn't take a lot of commencing. I saw that Dana
<v Speaker 2>was a smart guy, and yeah, that he put together
<v Speaker 2>something really very very interesting, and you know, it was
<v Speaker 2>a good foundation to work from. And oh, I like
<v Speaker 2>to think that the four Finger Disco in network has
<v Speaker 2>sort of grown a little bit since I came on board.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, indeed, Yeah, it was fun though in those early
<v Speaker 1>days to watch you come in and watch Mitch go Oh,
<v Speaker 1>there's someone here knows more about movies than I do.
<v Speaker 2>And I must admit I did try to convince Mit
<v Speaker 2>should say, hey, Mitch, I bet you and I bustl
<v Speaker 2>Dando out of this thing. He wouldn't go for it, honorable,
<v Speaker 2>honorable man.
<v Speaker 1>Yes he is indeed. All right. Well, that just about
<v Speaker 1>wraps it up this arm for this week, because the
<v Speaker 1>other question was Rachel McClean. What I said the last
<v Speaker 1>name Woosie was Rachel saying the same question she posted
<v Speaker 1>in the Patreon group. In the on the Patreon feed
<v Speaker 1>was the which episode deserves a sequel? So we won't
<v Speaker 1>go back to that. We already told you that one, Rachel.
<v Speaker 1>We've already answered that one. I believe it might have
<v Speaker 1>been one of the first ones that we answered. But yeah,
<v Speaker 1>I thank you guys for all of your support. He
<v Speaker 1>had four finger Discount's been a fun month. Next month
<v Speaker 1>we have posted to the to the patrons asking them
<v Speaker 1>which one they would want us to review classic episode,
<v Speaker 1>and they have gone with camp krusty with a summer
<v Speaker 1>holiday vibe, and they chose that one over the one
<v Speaker 1>with Ali Baldwin when you dish upon a star. Yes,
<v Speaker 1>because that was the beach at start of the episode
<v Speaker 1>and blah blah blah. So they've gone with camp Krusty,
<v Speaker 1>but it's gonna be fun to revisit, So look out
<v Speaker 1>for that one in your feeds next month. I wouldn't
<v Speaker 1>like the ball.
<v Speaker 2>Is that the one that ends with my favorite Simpson image?
<v Speaker 1>I know, yeah, I was just going, I'll put up there,
<v Speaker 1>I went, I hope they picked It's just for guy
<v Speaker 1>to do that? How would you have done it again?
