Read Transcript
The following is a sooner-or-gator production.
Noice, noice, noice, noice.
Good morning!
Woo!
F**k!
F**k!
Yo.
Stop.
Are you ready for the jam?
I said, are you ready for the jam?
Yo, jeep.
Kick it.
Drop the flea!
Let's go.
Keep it going, eh?
Are you ready?
It is 702 on the East Coast, it is 402 on the West Coast, it is the 12th of July
and the year of our Lord 2015. It is season 5, episode 47 chronologically
number 306. That many times, I have spoken into a microphone to say the clubhouse
is live and on the air. We welcome each and every one of you, no matter how
you're listening, whether you're live on Ustream, whether you're listening on
our archive, or maybe you subscribe on iTunes. We don't care how you
listen, we're just glad you're here. Welcome. My name is Rob and five years ago
today, I was preparing for what would come the next day. We're going to talk
about why here in just a moment. But let's introduce you to the other players in
the room because if I did this by myself, man that would be boring and we've
already done that. We're not doing that again. Joining me across the desk is
he tends to do is my co-host and a man that's got a lot of catching up to do
and I'll probably do most of it over the next two hours. He is Chad. Welcome, sir.
I'm preparing for sensory overload. You're going to need a bucket to catch the
remnants of my skull when it hits. Do we need to send a quick shout out? Yes, we do.
Happy birthday to your dad who turns 70 today. The Calvinator. Yes, he is
actually older than me. I know that shot a lot of evil,
con evil of his generation. But happy birthday, Calvin. Hope it's a great day
for you. It's a beautiful day outside. It's a little hot, but it's alright. It's
July. It's supposed to be. When a July birthday, you kind of get
gallows. If Chad is sitting at the 10 o'clock position, we go to the 12 o'clock
position to a man that joins us for the first time in a long time. A dear friend
of the show and a guy that I got to have some quality hangout time with this
past week at the celebration known to many morals as Ragnarok. He is Clay
Harrison. Welcome back, sir. Thank you for having me. It's good to have you
here. I had a really good time last week. I don't think everybody that came out
to the Alamo draft house. Yeah, it was fantastic. Also joining us is the
official fact checker of this show and the man that may have the coolest
t-shirt in the room. You may know him as fond don go. But his mama named him
Don Ford. I'm gonna call him Don Ford. Welcome, sir. It's an awesome shirt. It was an
awesome present. You know, speaking up. Well, hold on. We gotta say hello. Russ is
in the chat room. You guys got a Russ. All right. Who I got to watch his
vacation video this past week. Poor guy. He had to spend some time in New
Orleans. Got to see Mercy mean while he was there. It's a really nice
vacation video. Great. So go ahead. Speaking of birthdays and Calvin and all
that, someone just had a birthday and I got a present for it. It was me. I had a
birthday while we were on vacation. And I remember listening back into
shows and I remember something that you kind of said something you really,
really like. So, all right. Let me say. I know this is the exact ones, but speaking
of Cal. Oh, I got some my new. I'm rebuilding my Calvin and Hobbs collection.
I mean, you said I think the authoritative one and I think that's the one that
you want. That's the big one. Yeah, that's that I think that's it right there.
Oh, no, the one I was talking about is the one the big two volume. I didn't know
that. Yeah. But that's no, this is good enough. This is good. Because if you
don't want that for me, I'd have been like, okay, you need to make sure that you
get some money back because that's expensive. Yeah, that's some crazy cash. But
after I watch, have you watched your Mr. Waterson yet, Clay? Yes, I loved it.
After watching it, it just reinvigorated my love for Calvin and Hobbs. So now I
can start back and reading it. I saw a tortilla. That's the one. But I'm
happy birthday to you, sir. Thank you, sir. Thank you very much. I just remember
those little things. I appreciate that. It's a happy birthday. Thank you very
much. We start every show with corrections. I would have to listen back to our
special editions. We did for iTunes as well as our last episode. We seemed
clean to me unless anybody else caught anything. No, no. Okay, Chad, anything?
Us and clean just doesn't seem like it. We even go together in the same
soon. No, it's a little warm, but that's okay. Sure. This place may smell like a
locker room by the end of the show, but that's okay. I think that's our
assume where you're going. I'm not going to go anywhere outside. Yeah. All right,
let us get into this thing as we always start with a little NASCAR.
Oh, wow, really? Bloom County making a return? Really? That is outstanding. Oh my
gosh. How many years? What did it say at the top? It's in Bloom County, 2015. No,
no, they kept it after 25 years. Okay, 25 good night. Feels like going home. Awesome.
Today, actually, no, it was yesterday was the race. Oh, I hit the wrong button. We
had the Quaker State 400 presented by advanced auto parts. Wouldn't the Quaker
State 400 be brought to you by Quaker State? You would think. I don't know,
maybe it's just me, but we did have that race yesterday. Your top 10
finishers are as follows, starting in 13th place and finishing in 10th. Kurt Bush in
the number 41 Chevrolet. Six times six times six times six times six times six times
spring cup champion, Jimmy Johnson finishes ninth starting in sixth place and the
number 48 Chevrolet. Also in the number four Chevrolet, starting in 15th, finishing
in eighth is Kevin Harvick. Jeff Gordon in the number three Chevrolet starts in
third finishes in seventh in sixth place and the number two Ford Chad's favorite
driver, starting in second place, follows the sixth Brad keselowski. Matt Kenzif in
the number 20 Toyota starts in 16th finishes in fifth in fourth place, starting in
20th, finishing in fourth is in the night number 19 Toyota Carle Backflip Edwards.
The bronze medal starting in eighth place goes to Denny Hamlin in the number 11
Toyota Joey Logano finishes in the silver medal position from fourth to first in the
number 22 Ford and winning the race starting in ninth place and finishing in first in the
number 18 Toyota Kyle Bush. Didn't even do those commercials anymore today. Is that a
lost reference? Yes, done. Okay, fair enough. We'll go to your driver's standings. We're
getting very, very close. We are less than eight weeks from the chase, sir. This season
has flown by maybe because I don't watch any races, but it's blown by. Right now
you're odd man out. It's Paul Menard and yes, his family does own that that chain of hardware
stores. Casey Kane and Denny Hamlin switch places from 11 to 12. Jeff Gordon intent. Matt
Kenzif in ninth Kurt Bush in eighth. Brad keselowski and Jamie McMurray switch places
between seven and six. Martin Truex Jr. in fifth. Notice whose name we did not say
is a top 10 finisher this week. No, number 88 Dale Earnhardt Jr. Oh, okay, okay. He drops
two slots to number four as Joey Logano jumps one and six times six times six times six times
six times six times spring cup champion Jimmy Johnson shoots in the second place. He is
now 68 points behind Kevin Harvick who still holds on to that first place. But again,
as long as you finish in that top 13, you're doing okay. It's just because all the points
reset. Right. Your next race comes up next Sunday, July the 19th at 130 Eastern on the NBC
SN because as we talked about two weeks ago, some form of NBC has every race for the rest
of the year. I guess ESPN is just bailed. They figure, you know, by the time baseball
starts to die down football fires up anyway. So we're okay. Yeah. And it will be the new
Hampshire 301 oddly enough live from the new Hampshire motor speedway. Doesn't that take
up like a third of the state knew it? Yeah. New Hampshire's like the size of my house.
I'll say it's the size of your front lawn. Oh, then you've got and then you've got an
interesting race after that. But we'll talk about that next week. Anything we need to add
any any NASCAR headlines you gentlemen are aware of? He asks them knowingly. What's NASCAR?
Pretty much what I was looking for. It's a little go kart race. All right. Let's get it
because we've got a lot to talk about tonight because for those of you that live in a cave,
this was San Diego Comic Con weekend. So from a pop culture standpoint, we have a ton of stuff
to talk about. So let's get into some TV talk because we are your one stop shop for all
things sports entertainment. Interesting news for people of Chad's ilk. I don't know if any
because Chad, you may be the only person in the room. This first story affects as I'm trying
to talk as much as I can until this song kicks in because there's a really long intro. There it goes.
Kelly Rowland of Destiny's Child will be playing a lot. Is it Lion? Playing his mom and Empire?
Lion? L-Y-O-N or is it Leon? I'm not even sure what character that is. It just was reported
this week. She's joining the cast of Empire for season two. Okay. I like Kelly Rowland to me. She's
my favorite of the three Destiny's Child ladies. She earned a little bit of credibility for me whenever
she did Freddie versus Jason. I forgot she was in that. When she wasn't just Beyonce's backup. I'm
like, okay, she can do other things. She's got some good solo stuff, sir. Well, but I'm not a fan
of that particular creator. Yes, she is. Was it she the one that was or was it Michelle Williams? Which
one was engaged to a Dallas Cowboy at one point? Yes, Kelly. Okay. All right.
Interesting news for people of my ilk that have been waiting for this thing to happen.
Twin Peaks has now been pushed back to 2017. I'm okay with that. I think it's because things got
hosed up for so long that they didn't want to rush it. And besides, how long should you really
need to listen to David Lynch outside of being the bartender on the Cleveland show?
You know that was him, right? Really? I don't really was. I'm worth. I'm waiting because it's him.
I'll wait for him and they had contract problems. So since I had contract problems, I'll wait
as long as it's him doing it. Not somebody else. Yeah. But I still think it's weird that you've got
wore a pomer in it. Why? Because I thought we kind of wrapped that whole thing up.
Yeah, but it's kind of a weird world. Let him play with his toys and tell us his story.
More people talking backwards and things of that nature.
More dwarfs, please. Yes. In the lovely. As we know, Fox is jumping on the live musical bandwagon
that NBC seems to be on for these last couple of years. They are doing Greece.
A young man featured on Graceland and was in the film version of Les Mis,
like I by the name of Aaron Tivett, the TVIT is how you spell that. He's going to play Danny Zucco,
which I looked him up. I mean, when you're joining Vanessa Hudgens and Kiki Palmer, Kiki.
If you watch the soup, you get that rush. I just turned into Taraji Pants over here.
I get it. They're casting this much younger because let's all be honest. You go back and watch
Greece. You're like, why are these high school people in their 30s? But you could say the same
thing about every spider band film too. But somebody said that recently and I went, you know what?
Until I was now at that time, 41, I'm 42 now, but I was like, why did it take me so long to ask
that question myself? I guess because when I was what? Four or five when Greece came out?
Okay, so that's the question you asked. The flying car at the end is not weird, but why are
these old people in high school? But I didn't ask that question until somebody brought it up to me
recently. I always want to believe that the flying car was the first appearance of Lola from
Sheel or Christine. Oh, there you go. I don't think Christine ever flew. Lola flies. I was pissed off
the Christian for loading. Come on. Great Scott. And then it's credits roll.
Marty, we're at a different high school. But you know, I mean, it's going to get ratings because
you put Vanessa Hudgens in something. Kids know who she is. Yeah. Some for the wrong reasons if
we remember her story. But, you know, and then you've got a reality star in KK in there too.
So I'm telling you they're going to hurt yourself. I'm telling you that clip of the soup always
kills me. So I don't know when they're planning on airing this thing. I will make sure that my
DVR is not set for this. So you can't wait not to watch because you know my hatred for Greece as
it stands now. I didn't realize that it was as much as I was. I can't stand it. And it wasn't
hatred for Greece until right about 15 years ago. I hosted karaoke for 16 years.
Like the mere presence of summer nights makes me want to beat somebody with a stick. Like I heard
it so much and people calling it by the wrong name. Summer loving. Yeah. I just I hate that song.
And it's in that musical. So it's guilty by association. The only good thing about that movie right
now to me is that Sean on I was in it. And I'm a big Sean on I fan outside of that. I got a big
bag of nothing. That's that's the one good thing. It's got to be. I did I had to when I was a kid. I
had to soundtrack a vinyl. That was a double album. So. Yep. We had two copies in my house. Don't
ask me why dear. That's unfortunate. We had two copies of Santa. Speaking of unfortunate.
And I'm trying to wrap my brain around this. The CW was picking up a new one-hour drama that was
originally at Fox Fox dropped it. You heard me say one hour drama, right? Yeah. Called Riverdale.
Drama. Archie in the gang. Drama. Yes. And I agree with Russ. Sean on I had a TV show and I love
that show. I have Sean on super silly songs on vinyl right behind Clay right now. We won't tell
him. I'm afraid of it. I think they're doing some interesting things over at Archie Comics. They
they've redone the look. They've toyed with different ideas. They've had Archie you know with
zombies. They've you know well friend of the show Brent Peoples did an Archie cover that he did
a great job on that by the way. Yeah. So you know I'll give it a chance. I mean honestly to me Riverdale
is like 90210. It's just it's like one of those teen drama kind of shows. And so that's what I
expect when I see it. You did get a play you did get a tweet from someone about your Lola reference
by the way. Oh hey now. At Cam Sickle. Ah Cam. Hello. Yeah. So I wanted to make sure that they
recognize your Lola reference. Yes. I love giving out nerd crap. So ready for season three.
Oh I am. I am because of secret warriors but other than that I that's probably my least favorite
comic book show. And I only watch it when I have free time. I mean that's still the bars not
set that low for that being your least favorite. There's a lot out there. We've seen worse like what
misfits of science. I like misfits of science. Okay wait a minute. The discussion we had when I got
here was your love for heroes. Do you know who created misfits of science? I know. I know but still
by my current standards it doesn't hold up. Give me some young Courtney Cox and I'm happy. Okay
it's a fair point. Make sure Courtney is in that sentence. I just I don't know about the Archie's
as a drama. That's just weird. That's like I'm really trying to soldier through this. That's
like Freddie versus Jason is a comedy. But it was. Yeah. Yeah. It isn't so bad but
I think we've raised friends Freddie versus Jason than any more times in one time now than anyone
in the history of podcasting. Chad always needs help. You destroyed him sir. We just started sir.
We just started. We just lost a will. I was not expecting that. I'm this glad I wasn't drinking
water. That's a fair point. We would have been taking a bath. HBO after three episodes has
renewed the Dwayne the Rock Johnson Rob Cordray vehicle known as ballers. I am now caught up after
three episodes. It remind because Mark Wahlberg's name is attached to this. I'm making way too
many parallels to entourage where every episode ends with there's just darkness right around the
corner. It's very formulaic to me but I got to support Rocky. You know I feel like Dwayne needs my
support. I've been with them since the beginning. Not a fan. I like it. But I'll tell you what's
interesting. I heard an interesting story this week that apparently they don't have express written
permission from the NFL. Which is why if you if you watched it was an episode two when the agent
flew to Dallas to talk to the Dallas coach. The Cowboys logo you could see but the NFL
shield on his on his on his shirt sleeve was kind of blurry. So I wonder if that's how they got
around it. So can you buy the rights to use a team logo and not the NFL logo. That's what it looks
like to me. But they don't they don't show them all that much like like Peter Berg had the dolphins
T shirt and the dolphins visor. But that's right. But if you watched in the very first episode when Rocky
was having the flashback in the dream. There was nothing on the helmets. It was the colors of the
teams but you couldn't see anything on the helmets for the bills or the dolphins. I think the
biggest hurdle for this show is trying to sympathize with professional athletes that have a ton of
money and make mistakes and he gets them out of you know beating up somebody or all the other
trouble that you see in the NFL. Like you can't sympathize with these people. It's pretty realistic
where you got these people that we chop him like his best friend. I like that angle. You've got
the kid that's got the 12 person on to rise and he's trying to pull him out of the rock. You
know if you read his book the story he went through even in the Canadian football league of
you know my career is dead here. He plays that role perfect because he went through it in real life
trying to get in with the CFL. Oh no. Apparently though I'm getting a text from
front of the show Brian Burr and my buddy back home. The rock has explained they can use any logo
in the NFL as long as they show something that would actually happen with that logo including the
NFL. But apparently Gidele says that they don't have an agreement. So you know Roger.
This Roger's not making enough money. So then there's this and Clay I don't know if you saw
that if caught this this weekend. AMC has released the trailer for a prequel series to the
Omen called Damien. And I don't think I don't think it's a prequel. I haven't seen it because it's
Damien. I guess he's college age. Who does this appeal to? I mean because that's a 70s film.
But here's my thing. How many people do you know that watch Bates Motel and it's going into season
what three or four? I watched the first season. That was it. I'm done. I can't just but A&E is doing
this and I've seen the trailer and I'm like eh it may be the greatest idea since psycho too.
But here's the thing. A&E doesn't need it. A&E does not need the ratings like ABC or NBC.
NBC wants an eight rating. If A&E gets a three rating they're probably happy.
Well A&E is also like the walking dead. So anything else is pretty much gravy anyway.
Have you watched comic book men? I guess the only thing I don't know is that I like that show
is for some of the cool stuff on it. Even though I know it doesn't belong to those people because
it's completely scripted. But you know because Nishel Nichols just doesn't walk into your comic book
store. You know like but I do like some of the cool stuff they show on that show but outside of
that. But you know the trailers obviously going to going to appeal to somebody but it's just
it's one of those deals where it's like it's it's almost like it takes place between omens two
and three. Yeah I'd say that's what I have to do. There wasn't three when he ran for president.
That's when when it was he was played by Sam Neal. Yeah. So he wasn't he wasn't running for
president. He was kind of like the power behind the throne kind of thing. Okay. He was manipulating
the president from behind the throne. We have been told for once upon a time in their new season
Merlin and Gwenevere will be involved. It's hard for me to believe they're only in season three.
Yeah. I feel like it's been on a lot longer. Well I mean when you have 24 episodes you got a lot
of time to fill up. So you introduce everything you can. I've heard good things but I just have
no desire to watch it. I love Jane Espenson. I love her as a writer. I'd love all the stuff she
does but I can't watch this show man. I just can't get into it. I watched the first season
fell asleep in the final episode of season one when they had a dragon. So it's like how boy can you
be? Wow. Yeah. If you are a dragon fan. I was just bored. So I love to play this clip over.
Over? Do you say over? Nothing is over until we decide it is. Was it over when the Germans bombed
Pearl Harbor? How now? They're getting these rolling. Okay. I decided to play that part of it.
Of the Alison Brie says in an interesting interview this week that season the next season for
for community probably not going to happen but the movie is out there. I've heard that from Joel
McCale and Dan Harmon even said that Yahoo when they approached him about this season said that they
wanted a movie immediately after the season finished. Okay. So I'm you know me. I love community.
As do I. I mean. Even though I haven't watched any Yahoo episodes and that's just because I'm lazy
but I love community. I love that. I think you'll love it. I think you'll love this final season.
There's some great stuff and probably the two best episodes or the email hacking episode and
the modern espionage. Oh dear. I did. I told Chad about this. I don't know if he's actually gone
outdoors. That the episode where they do the David Fincher episode where they everything was a
David Fincher reference where there was always raining and it was black and white. You remember that
from the last episode last season NBC they did a David Fincher episode and it opens with
Allison Bree standing in the rain and black and white. I'm like okay I know where we're going
with this now. I need I need to see this. It's so wonderful. But it's it's so obscure that unless
you're really a deep fan of pop culture like it will go right by you but I know you would totally
get it. I don't remember that and I've watched I've watched it. I've been watched that show like
at least six or seven times. I want to see it was right before Thanksgiving. I want to say
of that season what to look it up. All right boys take a deep breath because we now get into our
television San Diego Comic Conunk. Oh oh. Elodie Young has been cast as a lecturer for season two
of Daredevil. I'm in. I mean the first season of Daredevil sold me. I mean that shows like it's
really fantastic. I mean I just haven't had a 12-hour block to binge it. My worry is we know
Punisher's in there. We know. Electra's going to be in there. How much stuff are we going to
put in? Well I like how they're saying that Punisher's supposed to be the villain. Yeah and that's
on board with. Yeah I'm on board and that's a great that's a great character to add in there.
And I love seeing you know who they cast. Shane. Yeah I know it's like I'm losing his
burn fault. Yes. Do people call him to come back when he leaves? Yes. Because he was fantastic
Wolf of Wall Street. You know he can do other stuff. Everyone just knows him as Shane. So I give him
a huge degree of latitude because really there's only been a few other people that have played the
Punisher. And Bray Stevenson was my favorite. So you can have Punisher Warzone. Yeah it's really good.
So good. Yeah. You're the only one that really got it right. Yeah.
Yeah. I'm sorry Cameron Monahan has said his appearance on Gotham. This is not a red hearing.
His character will become the Joker. And this show close race for my least favorite comic book show.
It's they've got a lot of work to do in season two. Oh my God. That thing was dull. That first half
that first half of the first season I was really on board with. But when you give away the ending
of your season finale and the trailer for the season finale you have a problem. The the pros
to the show the things that are really working are Alfred. I mean every really on board with him.
Oh my God. He's so fantastic. We just don't need to see young Bruce as much as we do.
I love young Catwoman for some reason. I like everything she's in. We kind of see this like
underworld that she's gotten into. And I liked her at the beginning but she just got on my freaking
hair. I still think it was a little too early to bring her in. It was like they wanted to
bring everybody in at one time. Yeah. It's like you need to space this out a little bit more.
I love what they're doing with Nigma. Yeah. I do like that. But again a show that I watched all
season long got to the season finale and fell asleep during the season finale. You think that
you had every right to that and I'm old. So Neil McDonough. It will play Damian Dark on Arrow.
I'm a big Neil McDonough fan. So I'm in good. I'm good. Ted Sears who you may know from
Masters of Sex which premieres as season three premier tonight. He's going to play Jay Garrick
and a Chantel Vonsentin. It's going to play Patty Spivitt in season two of the Flash. And that
was what I was trying to watch. They just released the trailer for season two of the Flash and
my phone is shit. And what I'm sorry. I forget that you are family. You are a family show and I
am not a family person. Um Legends of Tomorrow in a route. I'm in. I think they need cautiously in.
Okay. Okay. Give me. I'll give you all the pros. You give me what or just go ahead and give me
cons because I'm on board with that show because everything that I don't like is probably just
summed up in the atom. But they need to work on that character. This is going to be a tough team to
sell. But I said the same thing about Guardians. White Canary makes me sad. Why? I wanted to
stay dead. I wanted. I wanted her memory to stay where it was. And I love Katie lots. Don't get
me wrong. She's so good. But she's good. But I wish because when they announced I was like this
kind of screws up continuity. And then I saw what they were doing. And I was like, but are they
slaves to continuity? If you tell a great story, do you care if it's a great arrow story or if
it's a great black Canary story or. Well, before they before I find out how they were bringing her in,
I was like, you can't cross this over. Did you? You're really going to screw this up? Did you
honestly just assume that comic books and continuity are a viable? Well, Brian. Brian singer does not
pay attention to continuity. And he seems to be doing okay. Nobody does. But when you kill a character
and you bring that actor back, it was kind of crossing the streams. And then I found out what they
were doing with her. And I was like, okay, but she was great in that role. She did. And they really
screwed up by let her die and let. And I'm just not a fan of the existing black. And I'd like to
give this week's how you do an award to miss Rickards. If you saw how she was adoring for the
arrow panel last night. Oh, yes. She gets to how you do an award of a week. Me like you. Wow.
Thank you, Felicity. Agent Carter season two. We were told we'll pick up six months after the end
of season one. So you're good. Probably see the changes starting to happen with shield. I liked it.
I love it. I love that show. That show is so fantastic. I think now are they going to get a full
season? Are we going to do the same thing we did this year? You know what? I don't know what the
why they're so scared to do a give her a full season. Hey, bump into Netflix if you don't like it.
I mean, bring it to Netflix. I totally enjoyed that show. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, but she is a great
actress. She is so fun. She's embraced the fans and those stories are fantastic. I mean,
yeah, she's telling a story, you know, that of long ago and she's, you know, giving a little bit
of backstory for existing Marvel Cinematic Universe. But you know what? How many female superheroes do we
have? How many have their own shows? And she's about to hit number two with Supergirl. And you know
what? And the theme of her show is so fantastic. I know my worth. That is so good. And so good. And I
like that strong female character that you just know her is just an awesome badass. But you know what?
You don't even have to say female. She's a strong character. I mean, just the fact that she's female
makes it even better for me because you get to have a strong female character that girls can look up
to on television. Oh, exactly. I mean, the thing that's weird about this is I look forward to a Chad
Michael Murray show. And you forget that too. Yeah. Yeah. Because I'm like, really? Chad Michael
Murray's on this show. I really like this show that Chad Michael Murray's in. Agents of
Shield season three is going to have lash as a character that was announced this weekend.
I just man, the last half of season two is rough for me outside of the episode that set up
Age of Ultron. I would be on board with just killing everyone on the show except for
Age of Colson and May. But you got I want to keep fits and
I you get to keep one pick one crap. That that would be the one I'd keep. And then and
Gemma just because she's good looking. Yeah. Okay. So you have not very strong character. Simmons is
the really Simmons is I love them. And speaking we talked about Supergirl a minute ago. Peter
Fascinelli joining the cast of Supergirl as Maxwell Lord. I watched the TV spot yesterday.
There's just something about this brand with the CBS logo on it that just worries me. CBS is
I don't know. It's typically like your CSI and your which is which is very short for this world too.
Yeah, but I mean, it's been on for so long. Their demographic is typically older. And you
saw what CSI is going to have. I won two hour episode in September and that's the ballgame.
Okay. And but you still got CSI side. I'll I'll let my show our cat just wear some. I'll let my
grandmother know. Hey, I watched that show. Oh, wow. Something else I thought you would be
interested in, sir. Steven Amel Emily Bette Rickards of Carlos Valdez. I think that's the name
and Grant Gustin will lend their voices to a Vixen animated series. Yeah. And I watch the trailer
for this and it's not branded CW. It's CW something else. It's under the logo. And it's like, is
this just going to be like a web series? What are you giving me? Or is it there like their CW kids?
No. No. Yeah. Pull it up and take a look at the show because it is not traditional CW. And
you know what? That sucks because if it's going to be in that world, put it in that lineup because
if I'm going to watch Arrow, I'll watch Vixen right after it. Yeah. If I'm going to watch the
flash, I'll watch Vixen right after it. Throw it in there because we should put those two shows
back to back though. And that's separate nights. Well, you know, because they want that would be a
home run. So why not spread it out and get two nights of really great ratings. And apparently,
it was announced that Duff Beer is about to be a thing. They're starting their test marketing
it overseas. There are rumors of them bringing it stateside maybe next year. It can't be good.
It's not supposed to be. I would think the point of Duff Beer for it to be horrible beer from
the Simpson. Yes. Yeah. Because you can get it at the Universal Park in Orlando, can't you? Yeah.
Because you know what I was there and I don't remember seeing it because they do have most
tavern in the Simpson's deal in Springfield. Oh my gosh. I can't. I must have blocked it out because
I can't. I went to all the Simpson's stuff, but I don't remember seeing most. You've got to
can around here somewhere. Well, Brian's still listening. I know he's he's lives down that way.
So maybe he can tell us if there's one out out there. Yeah. Or Mike might goes down there. Oh,
yeah. Yeah. So I have to find out. I thought it may not may not may not remembering. I'm an old man.
So don't take any. I don't say don't take anything. I say seriously. You are listening to the clubhouse

says you can get Duff beer at Moe. You can also get burgers and you can order a flaming Moe.
What is the secret ingredient in flaming Moe? Coffee syrup. There's a mirror, Homer dressed up
as the Matt superhero and he gave it away. One of my favorite episodes of that show. Let us move
on and do POI at this point. POI stands for person of interest. It is a segment we do on this show
where we take a person or an entity and we debate their greatness or lack thereof. And I think we have
a very first in the history of the show tonight, sir, because you don't have it and I don't have it.
We've given away the list before. I don't know that we've ever given away POI. Yeah, we have.
Have we? Yeah. I think we've given it away too. Who's about to take this? Well, Don's God. I've never
done the POI. I've done a list. I did the list one time. I don't think we've ever given away POI.
I think we have, but I would have to go. So Don, we're going to go live to you to talk about what POI
is this week. This week is one of my favorite restaurant chains is Chick-fil-A. And for some
of the empires, I'm leery about talking about Chick-fil-A today because it's going to make me hungry
for Chick-fil-A and I can't go eat it right now. It's Sunday. It's Sunday. But in some states,
they don't even have any like a Montana. They don't have. There are many states that do not have
Chick-fil-A and I feel bad for those states. But speaking of that is when you're starting to, you know,
expand the company and go to different locations, they have to open the restaurant, of course,
and they have an opening. That's true. When they open the restaurant, it's every Thursday at 6 a.m.
It's not every Thursday, but every restaurant has opened on 8 a.m. at 6 a.m. Okay. Thanks for the
correction. Thank you. Well, the thing that they do that makes it so special is for the first
hundred customers that come in for the opening at the Chick-fil-A, you get Chick-fil-A for a year.
You get the first 50 people, right? First 100. First 100. Yeah.
The first 100 customers get a card that gives you 52 free Chick-fil-A. Yeah, let's be
clear on that. You don't just like get to walk to any Chick-fil-A like 19 times a day for a year.
You get 52 number one meals, which is the one a week. Oh, you can do as many as you want. You
can do some all one day if you want. But I'm saying you get 52 period. 52 period. It's not like
you have your own black card where you can walk in anywhere and just eat Chick-fil-A whenever you want.
Yeah, you get 52 free number one. You can use them as often as you want. And it used to be
coupons, but now they're doing it like a debit card. Yeah, because when I was at one opening,
the guy showed me a card. He showed me two cards and said, tell me what twins fake and you cannot
tell. Oh, really? That's right. They're going to that card now. They'll swipe card and stuff.
Wow. Okay. The reason we bring this up is you have done quite a few of these. I've done
12 of them. Now you can only show up 24 hours in advance, right? Well, what happens is they open
at 6 a.m. on a Thursday. They start the line at 6 a.m. on Wednesday. So 24 hours in
advance. Yeah. So get there by 5.30. If you get there the day before that, they don't care.
The line doesn't count and they count the number of people there at Wednesday at 6 a.m.
Now, if there's less than 100 people, they're eligible. They have to be at 18 and they're above. Okay.
So teenagers don't count in their little kids. And you can come and be their guest for the day
if you're chosen. So if there's less than 100 at that time, then let's say there's 80, all 80 people
are on Mac. We have to stay the whole 24 hours in the parking lot. You can't. And if I'm not
mistaken, they actually feed you. Oh, they feed you all day. Yeah, I'll go through the
end and you get unlimited beverages. But there's more than 100 people at Wednesday at 6 a.m.
They'll do a drawing. Okay. If there's 120, they draw the. Okay. So it's not like it doesn't matter
how long you were there, but it's 6 a.m. They draw 100 names and those 100 people. There's less
than 100 at that time than everybody's in, but there's more than 100. They do a drawing. So
you just get to like 5.30 or whatever. Fair enough. And so then if you're chosen,
you've got some paperwork and then you have to stay in the parking lot the whole 24 hours. If you
leave the alternates, we'll take your spot and they'll kick you out. That seems unfortunate.
But they give you a breakfast. Usually it's the biscuit with the chicken. Then at lunch,
they give you the honey chicken biscuits. The chicken, the chicken breakfast biscuit.
Those are so good. Then they usually give you chips and strips at lunch and then they give you
the full like number one or grilled or the number one combo at dinner. Plus they give you ice cream
or cookies and milk and stuff at like 10 p.m. They have tea and water and coffee all out there
for you all day. They let you go and use the restroom as much as you want. But you just cannot
leave there. But they feed you and they have activities all day. And now I've done 12 of these things.
And I've seen people... You've done 12 of these. 12. And I have no one guy who's done over 70 of them.
Wow. 70. Okay. Now, you know, when it opens at 6, they hand you the little card. They shake your
hand and you're on the way. And that's it. So it's a fun community time. You want to pack your
tent. You learn to bring games and everything else in case you are picked. But if you are picked,
it's a real family friendly atmosphere. They have a DJ come in at night from about six to nine.
Lots of games for the kids. You want to meet a lot of people. You get to meet a lot of people
that you've seen before. It's like a small community event, you know. You can type out and stuff
in that the end. You get 52 free number one combos. But the cards only get for one year. So you
have to use them within that year. Okay. Fair enough. So right now I probably have about 60 of them
right now. Okay. Number one combo is very generous with them by the way. I never told you
that you would agree with me on that. Absolutely. I've never turned you guys anyone down and said,
hey, you want to go ahead. You know, for me, it's a fun time to do. It's just fun camping out,
meeting with people, playing games. We have experienced campouts of different sources as well.
Is there a lot of, do you experience anybody ridiculing the people that are out there or
is this? Are people fairly well behaved when they drive by and see all the people out there?
Most people when they drive by, they're like, what's going on?
That brings them attention. Yeah. And the problem is that some people think, hey, it's opening
up Thursday and I'll show up at Thursday and be one of the first hundreds. Like, no,
this started yesterday. I apologize. But because you have to go through website and really
understand rules, you have to be there the day before. But you'll get some people, some
Nimrod who'll drive by. I love clock and night and honk us horn. I'm trying to wake everybody up.
But it's, but it's not the most part. Yeah. It's not like people are just curious and they
tense getting rocks. People taking pictures because it's like 10th city in that parking lot.
You've seen some pictures before. You know, but it's it's a good community kind of time and
everything. I think it's a pretty cool deal. I'm not sure that I could do it just because
I've gotten to the point in my life where I'm not a fan of sleeping outdoors
or being out late and not being at home. Yeah, you get some real pros. Bring some big tents and
everything of generators and everything like that. So they let you use generators on the lot.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Just as long as you don't break the fire code and the fire
martian usually comes by. But I've done it where it's up to 108. And I've done it where the days
high got up to 38. You know, so I've had some extreme weather issues doing these things. But
if it's a nice day, just like the one we did on recently on Northwest Highway there.
Uh-huh. That was a perfect day. I don't know. You used to drive by that every day?
Yeah. I would drive that way anymore. But yeah, I know what you're talking about.
And another thing is like they'll tell me when they open one light in Georgia or the
Carolinas where people know about it, there's like four or people there on that Wednesday.
You know, because they're based in Atlanta. But then they'll tell me with the open one,
I can Idaho. And no one knows about it. And at Wednesday at eight o'clock, there's, I mean,
Thursday at eight o'clock, there's eight people there. And so like the next 92 customers actually come
in and just order, they go, by the way, here you go. They're like, what's this? Because in a lot
of places, new places, they don't know about it. So actually, people will come in after they open.
And there's not only eight of them have been taken and go, by the way, here's a, you know, you're
just wow. So, you know, we've all got the fruits from my labor on this, which I
glad to share. But it, you know, it's, it's a good program. You know, lots of free food.
Also, this Tuesday, if you go to any Chick-fil-A, you dress like a cow, they'll give you a free meal.
I get that every Tuesday. Just this Tuesday. Any questions for this gentleman that you might
have on your mind about the way this thing works? I think it's, you don't see a lot of companies
do things like this for the people that are, that are there. It's, it's, it's nice.
I know most goes kind of the same thing. Like when you know the cracker barrel.
A cracker belt is the same thing? If you're the first person in line at the, at the opening
of a cracker barrel, you've got free food for life. Oh, do you? Wow. Yes. I know that. Yeah.
Can I imagine how far in advance people are at that joint? Second in line, you get free food for
a year. That's what my mom got when the one in Mesquite opened. Oh, and you know, I'm a big fan of
the cracker barrel. But for the, you got to look at the restaurant. It's like they have trainers
that come in at travel. That's how they do is do these open. Oh, yeah. And a lot of companies do that.
It's good for the restaurant because they got a free run of trying to get ready and make sure
they're, you know, equipment's working and they're getting that flow of trying to get the food out
and everything like that. So kudos to them. You know, it's something good. If you got the time off,
check their website because it lists all the future openings and show up if you're interested.
All right. Great job, sir. Thank you. Very impressive. A very first POI. Now I've done a list
once and POI once. My life is complete. You can die now. No, I just need Sigurdian weaver's
autographed. Oh, yeah. Yes, they'll need that. Yes. Yes. I will always think of fried chicken when I
think of Don. Tasty chicken. All right, gentlemen. Let us move on and do a little major league baseball
talk because this week before we get chick plays on me tomorrow night. You know, I'm talking about,
you ask him before tomorrow. Yeah. It is the all-star break after tonight, gentlemen.
Tomorrow night. Actually, no, I think it's officially the all-no. There's still games being played.
So tomorrow night will be the home run derby and Tuesday night will be the all-star game.
Show of hands who's watching it. Exactly what I thought. Maybe the silence in the room is
deafening. So let's talk about your current standings in major league baseball in the American
League East. The Boston Red Sox, five games below 500 and still in last place. They are six and a half
out. They are two games behind the Toronto, sometimes Blue J, sometimes not, who are a half game
behind Baltimore. Baltimore is a half game behind Tampa Bay. Tampa Bay is three and a half back on
the Yankees. So apparently it's two thousand all over again. In the American League Central,
the Chicago White Sox also four games below 500, but unlike Boston, they're 11 games back.
They're tied with Cleveland for the seller. They are both two games behind the Detroit Tigers,
Detroit, four and a half back on Minnesota, Minnesota, four and a half back on the Kansas City Royals.
By the way, in their last 10 games are eight and two. I remember a time two years ago when we were
like, excuse me, high school could beat the Kansas City Royals. And I think they only have three
starters in the also game instead of eight. So I think that I think the voting finally balanced out.
In the West, the Oakland Athletics, nine games below 500, they are eight games back. They are a
game and a half behind Seattle. Seattle is a game and a half behind your Texas Rangers struggling
as of late, sir. Yes. Three and seven in their last 10. They you realize that they have a losing
record at home. There's no idea. There's 16 and 25 out there at the ballpark.
And there's six games above 500 on the road. I wish they could get out of their own way. But we
have a tie for first place right now with the Houston Astros and the Los Angeles Angels of
Anaheim at Los Angeles County, California, America, North America, Earth, Milky Way. Man,
it's getting hard and hard to say. But you talk about a turnaround. It's amazing what happens when
you change leaks Houston. How last year they were they were part of America's favorite game show
and now they're tied for lead and division. In the in the National League West, the Colorado
Rockies continuing to suck as they are 38 and 49. They're 11 back. San Diego is a game ahead of them.
They are by our three games behind Arizona. Arizona is two and a half back on San Francisco.
And Misty's beloved Dodgers have a four and a half game lead on San Francisco in the Central
Division, Milawakay, the conflict of interest in Major League Baseball. How can you be the son
or how can you be the daughter of the commissioner and only team who can't seem to find their way out
of the cellar? That just seems odd to me. As if they say to the top of the league, they probably
have a bigger spotlight show. There are 13 games below 500. There you go. 18 and a half back. Although
there's seven and three in their last 10 real quick, the games go through today. The the
Hummer Derby starts tomorrow and then the game is Tuesdays. Yeah. Milawakay is a two and a half
back on Cincinnati. Cincinnati is seven and a half back on the Cubs. The Cubs five behind Pittsburgh,
Don's beloved Pittsburgh Pirates. When the Pirates are three and a half back on, John Anderson's
beloved St. Louis Cardinals. So you're in the thick of it, sir. Yeah, but after the break,
that's when you usually plummet like the Rangers. And in the only league that only division that
matters, the National League East, we're going to skip what's going on with the Phillies because we've
got to play America's favorite game show. My beloved Miami Marlins are 11 back. They are three and a
half back behind my beloved Braves. The Braves are four and a half back on the hated Mets and the
Mets are two back on the Washington Nattinals right now. All right, gentlemen, it is time for America's
favorite game show. As we all know it as what is the run differential for the Philadelphia Phillies?
Now for those of you that don't understand the rules of this game is closest without going over.
We do not go over any of the stats from the last show because that would give some people
an unfair advantage. So Chad, what is the run differential for the Philadelphia Phillies?
89 minus 89. Clay. What is sports ball? Okay, fair enough, but just give me a run different.
The number of runs Dave scored versus the number of runs they've given up. Give me the differential
right now. How do you sports ball? Fair enough. I feel like you just say $1. I buy that for a dollar.
Fair enough. Russ says that's why we walkies called the Brewers because they can't get out of the
seller. Well played, sir. Don. Negative 120. Negative 120 is Don's guess. The Philadelphia Phillies
currently are 29 and 61. They have a win percentage of 32. They're 20 and a half games back in the
division. You know better than ask me a sports question, but you could have given me a number.
They're 18 and 25 at home 11 and 36 in the road. The Phillies have lost four straight. They're
two and eight in their last 10. The run differential for the Philadelphia Phillies as it stands, Russ says
minus 100. He's not close. Minus 158. Oh wow. Is where the Phillies are right now or they last
week. Like 27 or so. Two was two weeks ago and they were in the 120's. I believe if I remember
correctly. 158. Minus 158. It's not even an all-star break. No, it's all it is. Yeah, after
today, they know it's, but I mean, think about it at this rate, they could be at like 300,
which might give them the all-time record. You never know. What do you think about it? They've
only won 29 more games than me and I don't even plan. Think about that. I'm 29 back on the Phillies.
Yeah, it was like what? 130 last week or something? Let us move on and do some music talk.
Very apropos for our first story. Hey, Ariana Grande, you're a moron.
Have you heard the story, Chad? Yes, I have. TMZ obtained some security footage from a donut
shop in LA where she and her friend are licking donuts and then she says that she hates America
and she hates Americans. GTFO. I think she and Bieber could just get on a boat and set sail.
And apparently, isn't she from here? Like, isn't she an American? She has to release a statement
the next day saying how she was talking about how much she hates that she has a childhood obesity
as a cause that she's taken up is like, you're a moron. You wear kitty cat ears all the time and
that makes me want to punch you. Even though I'm not an advocate for that, but it just makes me angry.
I just, she was born June 26, 93 at Boca Raton Florida. She's from bisection of the country.
Lucky you. She makes me want to punch things. But now she was supposed to perform as part of
baseball's all-star weekend. She had to cancel it. Not anymore. She's not. She had to cancel it
because she's recovering from wisdom tooth surgery. Yeah. From the look of the donuts. Sure,
she did. Coincidence? No. I think not. Heck no. But Demi Lovato has taken her place, which I
think she's the Demi Lovato got a little more talent than her. She should get more booted in
apps. She's actually Simpson if she showed up to this thing. Probably just as crazy.
In other strange news, and again, we do not condone punching random people in the face.
But we must have a reason. But I will punch things that when I get angry,
I really don't. Pop stars are acceptable.
Will Smith, apparently working, okay, I actually have to back this up a little bit.
Will Smith is a guest on a radio show on the internet, which we know nothing about,
hosted by his kid. So we already know the wheels are gone.
Where Will Smith says he has- I'm starting to hate America now.
This is more wheels than we're us. Where he says that he's been working on new music,
and he's written like six new songs with Drake. I hope they're all sequels to the Wild Wild West.
It's so cold.
That's one of my guilty pleasure movies. I hate to say it.
Yeah, but you don't sit around and listen to the theme music, do you?
No, no, no.
When I get to Fintina, I can't even cross the other way.
I probably will listen to the song and watch the film.
I remember when I watched the film because I was at your house.
It was Christmas day. My wife and I had first started dating, and she had gone to spend Christmas
with her family, and I had to work. You talk about falling asleep in a movie?
Guilty. Like half of us were like just laying on the living room floor going,
God, this is bad as we thought.
Are the credits coming? Are the credits coming?
Are the credits coming?
Most important fact, what's in the third act?
The giant spider, all right.
And if you don't know that story, you should.
And not only that, but if you ever watched Superman Doomsday,
I'd love-
Have you- do you remember that moment?
I'd love to love a shelter.
I love that character, man.
I just, for some reason-
There's a whole backstory that you need to know about that, which I don't think you do.
Which one was that?
Which even-
It was that first-
The very first one, the very first one.
It would take too long to explain. We'll have to talk about it after the show.
They'll be homework.
Congratulations to someone who my former boss refers to as T-Swizzle.
He's a young guy.
What are you going to do?
Taylor Swift's 1989 has sold 5 million copies.
Mazatat.
Show up hands in this room with who owns it?
Exactly what I'm talking about.
He's got jokes.
But on better notes,
Keith Richards has announced he's had a new solo album coming out.
His first solo album in 23 years
when he was 80.
No, I'm kidding.
Please, somebody sent us a care package, so we'll care.
All right, hold on. We may lose music here in a minute.
Uh-oh.
No.
Oh, yeah, we're just lost it.
That's okay because I can get it back.
But it's going to be called Cross-eyed Heart.
The first single is going to be called Trouble.
It will drop on Friday.
Anyone in this room really interested?
Moderately.
Because he's Keith Richards.
I mean,
it's the Stone's.
Yeah, but the last time you got a new Stone's album and you said,
yeah, this is working.
I can't remember the last new Stone's album.
I bought it.
Okay.
Being perfectly honest with you.
Let's see.
Let's do this.
This kid is why you always save your playlist as a list.
So that way when your computer decides it doesn't want to work anymore,
you're already okay.
And you can just do this and you're back on track.
Done.
I'm trying to get provides.
So we have some kind of music.
I would have gone with Sanford and Sun thing.
I can see somebody.
There was a couple at Comic Con that were wearing matchered and other vests.
Some of the backsets, Sanford and Suns of Anarchy.
Very nice.
I would watch that show.
I was going to reach home.
Oh, dear.
The music's back.
I think of two things now.
I think we're sitting in the room with Philip J. Fry and Fried Chicken Man.
That is my reason.
But the album, the album will drop on September the 18th.
Now, you noticed earlier, I said how the singles going to drop Friday.
We are now officially at the point where music new releases will happen on Fridays,
starting as easy as this past week or this week.
They're not Tuesdays anymore.
They're now Fridays because as we've talked in the past the reason they were on Tuesdays
is they would get shipped and not all of the stores would get their shipments on time.
So they put it on Tuesday.
So that's time for everybody to get the shipments.
Well, now in the digital age, you're not worried about that anymore.
Where's the nearest record store besides Best Buy and Walmart?
Target?
Well, it's besides, I mean, real, real record stores.
So music new releases and places you will get new music new releases this Friday.
This guy who's got to be in his early millions by now.
Hasn't he been doing country music since like
like the mid 1800s?
Alan Jackson has been around forever.
Didn't he like sell the right his publishing rights?
He did.
Yes, for years ago, for next to nothing, which is one of the
hey, so when you when you got a liquid that we look at with eight assets.
You got a liquid date asset.
Did he have?
I didn't realize that's what the deal was.
I got to see was he hurting for cash?
This new album is called Angels in Alcohol or as Clay calls it Saturday night.
There are no Angels involved.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
Also a brand new album from these guys.
I do love this song so much.
Chemical brother?
Yes, I love this song.
I was like chemical brother, sure.
Q-tiff.
I like both.
No, it's like who had the new album.
Chemical brother's brand new album called Born in the Echoes this week.
Also, Chad could not be more excited about the new album from this guy.
He's clay, he's kidding.
He's kidding.
Put him down.
You know that, but you know the Pitbull Walmart story, right?
No, there was a contest on Facebook and Pitbull said,
whichever Walmart gets the most likes over a month or two period,
I will do a concert at that Walmart.
So a bunch of the haters got together and you know what Walmart won?
It was a Walmart in the middle of Alaska.
That's awesome.
And you know what he did?
He went, I don't care, I'll go.
I'll go, anybody wants to party, I'll go.
So I can't hate them.
Yeah, that's true.
That's true.
You know, it's just like funny.
I'll roll with it.
You know, I'm looking at the run sheet and I notice that Pitbull is spilled
with the U in front of the B, so it makes it pitiful.
Pitiful.
So it's kind of funny.
Pitiful.
It's kind of a pitiful.
Pitiful.
It's called Dalai.
I don't know what that translates.
My Greek friend.
Russ says there's hit records on Ferguson, Rodin Dallas,
and half course, half price books.
He was so good at used stuff.
And a brand new, did you know it's good?
The brand new half price books, I'm by the Alamo.
Yes.
Yes, I've been there, loves it.
It's a pretty good sized store, too.
Yeah, it's fantastic.
And they built one by my work in lots of cleaners now, too.
So very exciting nine times there.
And Sublime with Rome releases their brand new album,
Sirens.
It's not Sublime, they should not call it that.
Moving on, let's talk a little bit of the Fuzball.
We are three weeks away from Traini Campsar,
which means we're about seven weeks away from all being right in the world again.
Thank God, I've gotten so homesick.
Unless you're Jason Pierre-Paul or
C.J. Wilson or C.W. Wilson, I can't remember his name.
It's actually name.
Bang.
Yeah, here's the thing, kids.
Fireworks have explosives in them.
Really?
Don't hold them in your hands.
But apparently, Jason Pierre-Paul, who I fully
willing to admit was a student at the University of South Florida,
plays for the Giants.
Apparently had an entire truckload of fireworks
that they were backing.
Can we leave this to the professionals?
Please?
He's a professional.
You know, a professional fireworks person?
Lost a piece of his index finger.
And apparently the Giants were going to franchise tag him.
And they won.
He's not willing to show up to the facility yet.
What a maroon.
And I think he has like a $15 million contract on the line,
is what he does.
All I know is I'm ready for football.
Because this time of year, just...
You saw who's going to get the hard knocks this year, didn't you?
Was it Texans?
Oh, is it Houston?
Yeah, Houston.
I like the J.J.
Why?
It's going to be a five-week thing there.
That'll fire up here in about three weeks.
Is that...
Is HBO going to do it again this year?
Or is it going to be...
It's going to be...
Okay, because I remember a couple years ago,
NFL Network carried it.
Yeah, no, it's...
So HBO's got it back this year.
Yeah, for the last year or two,
they've been promoing it.
So...
I'm not into the sports ball often.
J.J.
What makes me interested in the sports ball?
Quality human being.
Yeah.
I love the commercial he does where the guys got the coffee.
He's like, is that chamomile?
Do you want to take a nap?
Makes me laugh.
But that is talking about the foosball is going to put us
right into in memoriam.
And the very first person that we're going to talk about in memoriam,
it was kind of weird because
the rumors hit and then the rumors went away
and then the rumors hit again and then the rumors went away.
And then we found out
that at the age of 69,
Ken Stabiler passed away.
Ken Stabiler, a quarterback for the Oakland Raiders,
went to the University of Alabama and got suspended from the team his senior year
for partying too much.
So what better place to be drafted by
than the Oakland Raiders in the second round?
God.
Born on Christmas Day in 1945.
He was a second round pick at number 52 in 1968.
I'm going to leave the first team name alone because it's going to cost too much
giggling in the room.
He did play, I knew he played for the Oilers.
He played for the Oilers for one season.
Finish his career with the Saints in 1984.
It was a Super Bowl champion, Super Bowl 11.
He went to the Pro Bowl four times.
This guy was an absolute character.
Let's see.
Oh, Chad, hold on to that for Tech Talk, please.
Actually, we were in the right segment for it.
Wow.
Had a career QB rating of 75.3.
194 touchdowns, 222 interceptions.
He threw the ball a lot.
He had over just under 28,000 passing yards in his time.
If you actually grew up in Alabama,
and his family said that when he passed away the other day,
that the sweet home Alabama was playing in his room at the time.
The guy was a huge supporter of Alabama athletics.
And Hall of Famer.
When did he go into the Hall of Fame?
Is he not in the Hall of Fame?
How is that possible?
He was in the 1970s all decade team.
Led the NFL and touchdown passes in 1974 and 1976.
I find that hard to believe he's going to be in the Hall of Fame.
He was actually
referenced in the Force Gump book sequel, Gump & Company,
when he was playing for New Orleans.
Oh gosh.
He was a grand marshal for the 2009 Toyota Save Mart 350,
of the NASCAR race.
He actually had a kid's book released in 2006,
called Roll Tide.
I forgot he was in the Bud Bowl episode of Married with Children.
I forgot about that.
Oh, I did not know this.
You know what his nickname was.
He was the snake.
Jake.
Jake the snake as a tribute to Ken Stabler.
Really?
Yes, sir.
I did not know that was why he was Jake the snake.
This next one, Chad, I am going to
defer to you because this is one of your pseudo leaders.
Well, I really couldn't call him one of my pseudo leaders.
He just happens to be a co-star in one of my favorite films of all time.
In the history of ever.
Being a student of late 60s, 70s and 80s film
as all of us are in this room.
And I know how strongly I feel about Lawrence of Arabia.
Clay, I don't know how you feel about it.
I don't know if you have ever talked about it.
Don't hurt me.
I've never seen it.
Oh, my goodness.
Orn's.
I remember seeing that first time in seventh grade.
The movie is so fantastically amazing.
It almost hurts.
It's like looking at the sun.
It's that spectacular.
I'll consider this homework and review.
If that's what you please do.
But we lost the amazingly fantastic Omar Sharif.
I was not aware of this until I got over to your house today.
And I knew you were because I know you've been kind of off the grid
from a technology and new standpoint.
Yeah.
This one hurts.
I mean, from a guy that pretty much took the world by storm and Dr. Jofago.
And played the role of Ali in Lawrence of Arabia.
He had this mystique about him.
He had a very unique look of a very unique way of delivering dialogue.
He was born Michael Dimitri Shalub.
April 10th, 1932.
He was Dr. Shalub.
I remember whenever David Lean was talking to him and asked him what his name was.
He'd already, I guess, after he, I don't know when he changed his name to Omar Sharif.
Lean didn't believe him.
It means noble or nobleman in Arabic.
He spoke six languages.
Arabic, English, Greek, French, Spanish, and Italian.
He was also, did not know this.
He was also ranked among the world's top contract bridge players.
What?
The game, the card game bridge.
Yeah, I know, but I didn't realize that somebody was like keeping up with that.
I didn't get a contract for you.
I always remember bridges like a game like Grandmother played.
So they're probably, that was like, maybe that, that, that times Texas hold them.
So they're all like sitting around playing bridge, watching CSI.
Pretty much, yes.
CBS, where old people go to watch television.
Next month we'll be carrying bridge finals.
Do you feel like you feel like Captain America all of a sudden?
Well, that's not going away.
That's not going away any time soon at all.
Graduated from Cairo University with a degree in math and physics.
Worked for his father's, his father worked in woodworking
before he studied acting at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London.
He changed his name and converted to Islam in order to marry fellow Egyptian actress
Fattan Hamama.
There you go, Fattan Hamama.
Sounds like something the minions would say.
He actually began his acting career in Egypt with a role in something called
Shaitan Al-Sara, which translates to devil of the desert.
His first English language role was Shereef Ali in Lawrence of Arabia.
That was his first English role in 1962.
Kind of my best supporting actor nomination and the Golden Globe for best supporting actor
motion picture.
There's a reason we don't have video on this show.
Thank God.
Just lost another wheel.
But, I mean, one of your favorite people in the world and one of your favorite movies of all time.
But you know what?
I lived it very full life.
Yeah, the man's got skins on the wall.
As I say, as I say, I'm having a lot of fun.
This one happened yesterday.
And I'm going to give you the name.
You could probably see it on your run sheet.
But I don't know if you know who this is.
Roger Rees.
I do.
Yes, I do.
For one show.
You and me both.
The way we swing.
Oh, see, I know him as Robin Cole Court on cheers.
Remember that?
Yes.
And I know him as Shereef of Roddingham.
And that's Robin had been in tights.
The thing I love is how the mole always moved from on the face.
From one side to the other,
Brokestein to seed.
He was 71.
Past a way of stomach cancer.
Oh, so sorry to hear that.
He was born in Wales,
stuttered at the Chamberwell College of Arts and the Slade School of Fine Art,
turned into acting when he was painting backdrops at the Wimbledon Theatre
and was asked to fill in for a part in a play.
God.
That's your breaking show business.
Oh, he was in the remake of the Pink Panther.
I'm sorry, sir.
Hey, like you always say, everybody has their issue.
He was in Frida.
He was on Warehouse 13.
Really?
He was a substitute teacher on my so-called life.
Oh, great show.
Kind of the head of its time, that one.
Yeah, it was.
I think it's required viewing by most teens.
He played Gomez in the Broadway musical adaptation of the Adam's family.
Oh, greatness.
Wow, I would have loved to see that.
You and me both.
What was his character's name once years?
Robin Cole Court.
Okay.
He was a
Sir John...
Oh, on the West Wing?
Yeah, it's more John Marbury.
More John Marbury.
Yeah.
I mean, there is no better scene than just him and Martin Sheen together,
just trading dialogue and just dominating.
What are the greatest shows in the history of ever?
Yeah.
A show I've never watched one episode.
You have my own whole thing.
I have the box set, too.
Yeah.
We all have homework tonight except Rob.
I'd have to go to work in a more in a minute.
All right, gentlemen.
Let us get into combining sports and entertainment
as Clay takes a nap.
And we talk wrestling.
Congratulations to Randy Orton.
Got engaged over the weekend.
You're mausletop.
Misty said many, many curse words.
I'm sure.
And he returned to RAW this week.
And so did Zena.
Oh, yeah.
And by the way, I believe Happy Birthday to Zena,
who had a birthday this past week.
And if you watch RAW on Monday nights,
Lesnar tore that car door off and hurled it about 100 yards
apparently and hit some kid in the city.
It was a full blown Cadillac car door
that he ripped off the car.
And he threw this thing 50 yards if he didn't throw it anywhere.
And a piece of it hit a kid in the stands.
The kid's fine.
And he's WWE genetics were on it.
I mean, they were on it.
By all accounts from everybody in the stands.
The kid was fine.
They had a couple of cuts.
And we have a special guest joining us.
His timing couldn't be in more impeccable.
Because this is part of his bread and butter.
Don's going to get him to the studio now.
But yeah, parent.
Oh, we forgot to talk about Amanda Peterson passing away.
The girl from Camp Bimey loves.
Yeah, that was sad.
I mean, she passed away on Friday.
And like didn't announce it until Sunday.
And then they were like, they were trying to find the reason for her death by autopsy.
Yeah.
So it's really sad when you see a lot of these actors and actresses
who had done bit parts,
you know, and later like leave that,
you know, leave the world of acting.
And then you only hear from them when they die.
Yeah.
Because she pretty much just left the scene pretty much after that.
She didn't do a whole lot.
No, not a whole lot.
It kind of reminds me of that little girl from the Patriot.
Oh, yeah.
Joining us now, your mic should be on, sir.
Hello.
The King of Bowling himself, Andrew Beckham,
we just started wrestling talk.
So you're right on time.
Perfect.
We just talked about Orton getting engaged last weekend.
And we were talking about a Lesnar when he hurled the cardboard
and hit some kid in the stands.
Oh, yeah, crazy.
But they said the medics were right on it
and then the kid's okay and everybody's happy.
Also, I might be the only one in the room
and Don just stepped out for a minute.
We'll ask him when he gets back.
I may be the only one in the room watching tough enough.
You are.
They had somebody leave the show last week.
And the way they made it look on the show
was like she was just done with it and left.
But they did say to hear more about the story,
go to the website.
She didn't just leave the show.
Apparently where she lives in Spokane,
she owns a bar.
And one of her employees,
slash one of her very close friends,
got attacked at the bar.
It was left partially paralyzed.
Oh gosh.
So she left in the middle of the night to go back to Spokane.
So we hope all is well for Diana and her employees up there.
She has been replaced by a girl.
Don, are you watching tough enough?
Watch the first episode and it's about it.
Okay.
She had the whole thing on the weekend.
Fair enough.
She's actually been replaced by a Chelsea Green
who use name you may not know.
But if you remember when Daniel Bryan was having his
angle with the authority and they brought out his physical
therapist that that Steph was accusing him of having the affair with.
Yes, no.
Um, okay.
Yeah, yeah, I do remember that.
That's who this is.
She's replacing him.
So.
Also, it's going to be excuse to place
some Oreo Speedwagon.
Which I probably need to get the fabulous Thunderbird song
on one of these days to play during that segment.
Let's go ahead and talk about Raw for just a moment.
If I can use the right mouse to get me there.
Okay.
So in the storyline,
Seth Rollins sent King to Hawaii, right?
Love those photos.
Could we have at least tried,
like you could tell that these were,
these were like Photoshopped green screen pictures of him in Hawaii.
Could we have at least tried to make these things
look real?
Like this was like this was bad, dude.
I love this was because I love them because they're so bad.
That's what I loved about them.
You could tell there's some Photoshop.
We also got to see Atlanta for the first time with her hair down.
Runner up in the how you doing a word of the week.
Really?
And Clay, you will probably be interested in the character of Lana and WWE.
She's actually been in both picture-perfect films.
What?
What?
You'll have to look her up.
She's that one girl.
Yeah.
I do have a wrestling question.
Yeah.
How are the Von Erick's?
One of them is in Hawaii.
The rest of them pretty much are gone.
They have one of their daughters is still in the business.
Lacey, very pretty girl.
Pay now.
Very, very, very, very, how you doing?
How are you doing?
And Cesaro gets the main event.
Chad, wait a minute, I haven't had a chance to talk about this.
Cesaro is in the main event Monday night,
against Cena in the US Open Challenge.
They gave him 20 minutes.
And he made the most out of it.
Yeah.
This was crazy.
And even when Raw went off the air,
Cena actually cut a whole promo where he put Cesaro over.
Really?
And he came to the ring and
Cena shook his hand and Cena jumped out of the ring and let Cesaro have his moment.
This was a good match.
This match was enjoyable to watch.
I very much enjoyed this.
Is it one of those finally moments where you're like, yes.
I hope he's finally going to, I would have put the strap on him.
The match was that good.
And it was physical, like, Cena worked.
It was a good match.
And even Don's got to admit this was a good match.
Oh, yeah.
I'm the first to say it.
As much as Don hates the John Cena,
this was a good, good match.
No, it's the one, China.
But yeah, it was the right, no, it's John, China.
It's one, Cena or John, China.
You can't cross this.
That's all I have to do, but...
But good on him for being in the main event and making it work.
That was impressive.
That's all I got for Raw, but you got anything else?
Not really.
Interesting happenings over in total non-stop action land.
Do we have to?
Austin Aries is already showing up on ROH shows.
Here's my thing.
I want to go off the wrenchy for just one moment.
Pro Wrestling Illustrated is not recognizing the TNA title now.
After the U.I. is not?
Yeah, they're not wrestling anymore.
Number two, instead of doing TNA every week can do,
we do Ring of Honor because it's much better.
I'm a Ring of Honor fan over TNA.
You know, I don't ring of honor,
but I said we're not going to cover it yet.
Okay, that's just a recommendation.
Fair enough.
But Austin Aries replaced Roderick Strong at ROH Wildcard
to take on, take on, I believe it's Jay Lethal.
And we have some more information from Jeff Jarrett's GWF,
the Global Wrestling, Global Force Wrestling, GFW.
Their TV show is going to be called Amped,
which I don't know if Mountain Dew is going to sue somebody.
The first tapings will take place July 24th.
What else takes place that weekend of July 24th?
My cousin's birthday.
Isn't it?
It's the only TNA TV tapings on the calendar right now.
Oh, wow.
So...
And that's a Saturday or Friday.
That's crazy.
The 24th.
Is that's a Friday?
Today is the 12th, 19th.
That's a Friday.
So they're taping everything from howwing to New Year's Eve.
Is that what they're saying?
No, they're tapings.
The TNA tapings are only going to go through the end of September.
What are they doing?
I don't understand this.
The rumors are strong, but this is it.
Yeah, finally.
And by the way, for those of you that have asked me,
my blog post is up on how Ring of Honor
may be shooting itself in the foot.
If you go to your uncleb.blogspot.com,
I have...
And it's actually a blog post I'm kind of proud of.
It went almost 500 words.
But part of the deal maybe they didn't have my choice on.
You know, you never know.
Go read the blog post.
Yeah, feel free to comment on it.
It's basically called how Ring of Honor
may have shot itself in the foot, given the golden opportunity.
But I like the wrestling.
I remember your bullet points a couple of weeks ago.
Did you go in more in depth?
I went way more in depth.
Way more in depth than I even thought I was going to go.
So...
And of course, we always have to do something for Chad and this segment.
The Global Force Wrestling did a house show
in Appleton, Wisconsin.
Hornswaggle was there as a fan.
Thank you for that.
See?
I'm here to help.
As a fan?
Jerk.
Yeah, he's still on your contract with WWE.
Okay, but just as a fan.
Kurt Angle.
Undergo's successful next surgery this week.
He had the benign tumor that was actually bothering him.
He says it's been bothering him a lot
for the last few months,
which I didn't understand why you had him do his rematch
on impact knowing he was out with the surgery.
But whatever.
He said he's out of action at least a month,
which is weird because if you do your math,
go a month out.
That's past the tapings.
Interesting.
So the possibility exists
that we may have seen the last of Kurt Angle.
In a total nonstop action wrestling.
Back to the WWE retire.
We're hoping.
Move on, please.
So we're going to talk a little bit about impact very little bit.
Do we have to?
Uh, apparently last week EC3 became your new
heavyweight champion, but he won it clean.
How often does a heel win a title clean?
Well, not tall rare because, you know,
there was the tireless, I thought,
you know, for not from the highlights I saw.
He won it clean, but I will say I did meet him
after the semi-versa, very nice guy.
I really like that about EC3.
And he referred to himself as the greatest living wrestler alive.
Is that like the greatest living wrestler alive?
Is that like Christopher Daniels
and Kazarian referring to themselves as the world tag team champions of the world?
Dude, get some Greek cred, okay?
Greek cred?
Remember, that was Don's bit for a while.
He had Greek cred.
Greek cred.
Yeah.
And uh,
So Matt Hardy comes out.
Stop this world.
I want to get off.
Matt Hardy comes out and he thinks he deserves a title shot.
So he tells the fans
to get on social media and hashtag
Hardy title shot.
And I'm like, you taped this two weeks ago, dude.
How is something magically going to,
is this like the movie clue
that it could be a different ending every time we watch the show?
Is the movie clue and he has none?
Yes.
But again, congratulations to the Matt Hardy recently became a father.
And I'm speaking of that, uh,
his wife and Shannon Moore's wife have been getting into it on the social media.
Really?
I thought they were close.
Oh no, it's, you read up on that.
It's, there's some uh,
Twitter stuff going on between them.
And so Robbie E and uh,
Jesse Godders have a street fight.
But is a street fight a street fight if it never leaves the ring?
No.
Isn't that just a no-deq match?
Yeah.
It's a...
But I will say this.
Let me give you, I'm going to give you the finish.
And I want you to think about this.
Robbie E
faced down on the mat.
Jesse Godders grabs a steel chair
puts it over the back of Robbie E.
Turns it into a Boston crab and sits in the chair.
Oh god!
I'm like, you know what?
That's creative.
But that's got suckery and all over it.
I'm like, that's a creative ending.
Why can't you do this more?
I was like, that was kind of the cool.
Every now and then, you'll see, you'll see all these promotions
get something right once in a very blue moon.
But for the most part,
it's just become regurgitated junk.
And when was that like, which is why Ring of Honor has an amazing opportunity?
It was at it like the past the one hour mark in which everyone had started.
It was in the second hour.
Yes.
So everyone had stopped watching by then.
And then they're going to pick up when the main event comes around.
Pretty much.
Yeah.
Last weekend was the big house show in Japan
where Brock Rosner went.
And you have a new NXT champion.
And his name is Finn Baller.
This kid's a beast.
Oh yeah, yes.
I don't know if you've seen him,
but he's the guy that comes to the ring for title matches or
special match where he's full body paint.
Oh yeah, okay.
He is your new NXT champion.
It looks like the offspring of the boogie man.
But he is mad talented.
His finisher, the Kudai Gras,
a gosh, that's what I think.
There's always going to be going full time now to WWE.
Yes.
Okay.
Yeah, they had to drop it.
You knew it was going to happen soon.
And I think, well, we'll say that next week's the pay-per-view, right?
Next Sunday.
Yeah, we'll be doing the pay-per-view live.
We'll be doing our pre-show live right here in the studio.
So make sure you join us next week.
WWE Battleground is next Sunday.
And Rourers that possibly tomorrow nights,
you might have Charlotte and Sasha Banks joining the roster
to join forces with Paige to take on Team Bella.
Great kid.
Dude, I have no idea.
Charlotte's Flare's kid.
Okay, okay.
And then Sasha Banks has been her kind of tag team partner.
She's really talented.
Okay, because I have no idea who you are.
NXT is really embracing the diva's division
and really developing that division, especially given the absolute void
that TNA has left in women's wrestling.
And look at what WWE nicked the Bellas.
I mean, they were mid-card for how long they're no leader.
They're no trusted radish.
And they've been, she's had the belt for how long now?
Hey, Charlotte's got skills, dude.
Oh, yeah.
Charlotte's got skills.
And you don't think they're going to be a threat to these girls behind the scenes?
Well, the Bellas are getting ready to leave anyway, aren't they?
They're saying they're not resetting the contract,
but nobody knows the contract's up.
Yeah.
So, is this her theme?
Is this her actual theme?
Yes.
This is cool.
See, you didn't like it when I played it before?
This is cool, it's grown on me.
Okay.
And in interesting news last week, Austin has to come out on Tuesday and address rumors
that Piper puts out there that Austin got him fired from podcast one.
Recently on a podcast that Piper did, he had Will Sasso on and Will Sasso did his
Stone Cold Steve Austin impersonation.
And in doing so, said some things that were a little bit out of bounds.
And Piper alleges that after that podcast, Austin complained to podcast one,
the podcast one kicked them off.
Austin says, I'm 50 years old.
I don't have time in my life for drama.
Whatever they want to do is fine.
Here's what happened.
He actually went to them and asked, he actually quit.
I didn't get him fired.
I don't know what he's saying.
And now he's doing his podcast on SoundCloud.
And I don't know if that violates his contract for podcast one or not.
Roddy, get it together.
Because apparently according to Flair on his podcast,
and he has on something called play.it or something like that,
it's I radio at sport all the time.
Flair has a podcast there.
He's saying that as a result of this deal that Piper's lost his legends contract.
Really?
That's what Flair is alleging.
So there's a lot of alleging going on here.
Yeah, very enough.
Total diva season four premieres this past week.
What was season premiere rating yet?
When it goes up against tough enough work.
I think it was right after tough enough.
Oh, okay.
So it was during the tough enough post show that they do on the network.
I have not watched the show in three years.
I've given up.
I applaud you for that.
I watch.
Russ says that Sasha Banks is the cousin of the Snoopy Dog Dog.
Oh, dear Lord.
Oh, wow.
So there's that.
You know what?
I did watch two hours of the last season
because it was kind of on and I had it on DBR.
So I fast-forged through most of it.
You know, you can delete that.
Yeah, I know.
Well, I just said a lot.
I gave you the first season.
I'm not afraid to say.
I just said I'll just check in, you know,
just once because they had the marathon going like they always do.
And that's it.
Why does he sound like, well, everybody else was smoking it.
So I figured I'd take a drive.
No, that's Sasha Banks's cousin for the empire, okay?
And you never inhale.
He was just going to hang out with Sasha.
Smackdown notes.
It aired.
Moving on.
I watched 37 minutes of that.
You watched, I watched the whole thing.
And I, I'm sorry.
I, uh, actually, I fell asleep after a minute five.
But they got this good song we play when we talk about it.
That's about it.
This was, yeah, this was not good.
Smackdown was very, very, very uneventful.
Yeah, my times they show the car,
but they didn't show them throwing the door goes like,
almost hits the crowd and they cut it off every time.
The car door.
Oh, yeah, they showed about 20 times.
Yeah, they flattened the car door.
I do like this song.
Yeah, so even though this is not the one that we're using anymore.
Bortramania.
All right.
Clay, you can wake up at the movie time.
All right, I'm here.
Yay.
All right.
So let's get into movie talk box office numbers this week.
Dropping out of the top 10,
we have quite a few movies dropping out of the top 10.
Really?
Spy drops out of the top 10 with another $3 million.
Six weeks, 103.5 million dollars.
Clay, go see this movie if you have one.
What do you thought about it?
I've heard good things.
I loved it.
Why don't we thought about it?
Subscribe on iTunes.
Amy, debuts out of the top 10.
San Andreas drops from eight out of the top 10
with $1.2 million.
Seven weeks, $150 million.
So Amy didn't even make the top 10.
It did not.
Why don't we, I thought?
This is just about iTunes.
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl from ninth place drops out of the top 10.
Six hundred and sixty five thousand dollars.
Five weeks, five points, six million dollars.
That, that, that, that film's made its money back.
Because it's a small indie film.
Yeah.
And dope drops out of the top 10.
Six hundred and twenty two thousand dollars.
Four weeks, fifteen point, five million dollars.
Not a bad flick.
It's just not what I was expecting.
Yeah, yeah.
I know what you thought.
I think some of these movies need to realize they're better
and video on demand than try to go to theater.
The trailer tells you nothing for this.
Oh, then that, that, that, that, that, that's an excellent trailer.
When you, when you see the trailer and you're like,
oh, that, okay, I see what this could be about and you get there.
And it's not about that.
I thought it was going to be a documentary about.
I, I just thought it was a, a period piece about 90s, about culture.
It's not, it takes place current day.
We'll explain after the show.
Okay.
So now dropping from six to 10 is max.
By the way, Thomas Hayden Church was on B and T the other day.
Did you know he went to the University of North Texas?
Yes, I did.
And he was always talking about it.
And he's like, you know, the critics are kind of painting it,
but it's not for them.
This is a family film.
And I've heard good things about it.
This is the one about the dog that used to be in the army.
Yeah, the PST.
But I always love it.
How people use that as they get out of jail free car.
Well, this movie isn't for the critics.
Yeah, okay.
But, but again, it's a family films don't,
unless they're a big budget, like something that we're going to talk about here in a minute.
The smaller family films don't get some of the love that it should.
Yeah.
In the personal opinion, uh, debuting at ninth, in ninth place.
And I don't even know what this is.
Bahubali, the beginning.
Well, I don't know.
$3.6 million it made.
I'm still going to pull this up here.
I don't know.
Johnny's interested.
Debuting in eighth place is the, uh,
is it Ryan Reynolds that's in selfless?
Yes.
Ryan Reynolds and Ben Kingsley.
Yes.
And I have only recently started seeing advertisement for it.
So that's weird that it's out.
I saw trailer.
I've been seeing trailers on nothing but trailers for a couple of months.
It does nothing for me.
Yeah, but it makes $5.4 million.
Good friend of the show, Gary Murray, son.
He said started off.
Okay, but then what's got Ryan Reynolds in it?
So that's all you know, uh,
Ted two drops from fifth to set with $5.6 million.
Three weeks, $71.6 million.
I have heard very polarizing reviews about this.
I've got no real desire to post her, but I love the first one.
Yeah, if you like the first, if you like the first one, you'll like the second.
Okay, but but you know what?
The thing for me is there's been a lot of films that I'm just waiting to see.
And films I normally would go to the theater and see terminator.
Ted two and tomorrow land are all waiting until they go to Netflix.
But I'm going to go see train right next weekend.
Tomorrow land you probably won't get on Netflix.
Oh, you have to go red box because remember that's Disney.
Oh, okay.
Well, tomorrow was good.
I enjoyed it.
We liked it.
Yeah, it didn't make a ton of money and it got paying by a lot of critics.
I've heard no good things enough to get me to the theater to see this.
Why don't we call good call?
Good call.

Magic Mike XXL falls from four to six this week, $9.6 million.
Two weeks, $48.4 million.
Anybody here seen it?
The same number of people that own the Taylor Swift album.
The gallows debuts in fifth place this week.
What box office emojis not giving me any budgets anymore?
Shame on them.
$10 million for the gallows opening weekend.
Not a fan of the genre.
Terminator genisus drops from the bronze medal to fourth place.
$13.7 million, $2 weeks, $68.7.
Not good.
30 minutes too long.
Really?
Yeah, I agree.
I wanted my $4 package.
Inside out finally loses the top spot.
Goes from the gold medal to the bronze medal.
Another $17.1 million, $4 weeks, $283.6 million.
I thought inside out I only got the silver medal.
Because of a dinosaur.
It says last week one.
Oh, I thought, okay.
So it did beat out the dress last week.
Finally, yes.
And that's a movie I've seen in the theater.
It is my favorite Pixar movie ever.
It's probably my favorite movie this year.
It is so wonderful.
Oh, yeah.
I can't say enough.
I give it the coveted.
Yes, you did.
Staying in the silver medal is Jurassic World with another $18.1 million.
Five weeks, $591 million.
It works, is that all?
And debuting in first place.
And, yes.
I saw it.
I know.
I haven't seen it.
I have to wait.
Start with that.
I promise.
I saw it for the rest.
I have to wait.
Minions, $115.2 million.
Sir, why would you come out this week?
Yeah, that was this weekend.
I will say this.
If you can get to see it,
I'm not going to see it in 3D.
Because there's a tag at the end.
Oh, there always is.
In this one, the tags were staying for if you have 3D.
It's very, yeah, it makes it's really cool.
And I always love how people want to make fun of,
or make things darker than they're supposed to be.
Because you've got that minion's toy
that people are saying cusses.
And if they don't tell you that's what it is,
you just hear, you don't hear anything.
But when they do it over and over and over.
Oh, no, I hear it because now you've got it in my head.
See, my minion says Paul is dead.
But only when you turn him around.
It's like Renee's Lisp.
Kind of thing.
You don't notice it.
Exactly.
Thank you.
All right.
So, Paul Feaks Ghostbusters filming currently.
Excited and on board.
They released the group shot on Friday.
I would take on all haters.
You know what, you know, I'm a big fan of three of the four of them.
Not a big fan of Wesley Jones.
I think she's a little too over the top.
I'm sorry, I lied.
Really?
Next to Kate McKinnon.
But Kate McKinnon.
Wesley Jones, here's my thing.
Okay.
You don't have to be the angry African-American character
all the time.
You know, give her something else to work with.
Kate McKinnon's just greatness.
Yeah, every character she does.
Her beaver.
Her beaver.
Oh, are you kidding me?
Yeah, fantastic.
So, Neil Casey is going to be the villain.
Yeah.
And, yeah, SNL guy.
So, and a great writer.
And everyone that's hating on it, it's just because it's like,
because it's not the original.
I want them to all go back and find the original Ghostbusters script.
And I'm talking the first one, the one they didn't film.
Because in that story, there are Ghostbusters across the world.
And they find alternate dimensions.
If they in this film with alternate dimensions,
and we see other Ghostbusters.
Well, you know, everyone will freak out.
But there's the other project that's being worked on too,
that Channing Tatum and Liam's help,
but Hemsworth are part of.
Yes.
So, and oh, no, Hemsworth's in this one.
Isn't he the receptionist?
He's the receptionist.
Okay.
I'm on board.
I'm on board.
I hope they tie it into the original.
If they don't, I'm okay.
Because it has a lot of similarities,
which they didn't have to do.
So, they're doing it for a reason.
And I want to believe that they're going by Dan Accord's original script
and that there are other dimensions
and they find these other Ghostbusters.
And it's Paul Feec directing Melissa McCarthy.
Go back and watch Bridesmaid.
Bye.
Bye.
I haven't seen it.
I haven't seen it.
But I watched Bridesmaid.
And the heat.
And the heat.
I loved it.
I prefer the heat of a Bridesmaid.
I loved Bridesmaid.
I think Bridesmaid may have been a little too hyped
for you by the time you saw it.
I think that may be the problem for you.
I remember I told you, watch Bridesmaid's first.
Because if you watch the heat first,
Bridesmaid's is going,
you're just going to,
you're going to click it off halfway.
Yeah.
But yeah,
it's Paul Feec directing her.
I'm good.
And the best thing about Bridesmaid's is it gives it
just enough heart.
And if he can put that into a Ghostbusters film,
I think people will be on board.
And I think once there's a trailer,
I think a lot more people will be on board.
The weirdest thing is seeing the hate
that comes from people about this film.
It's as Chick-me-Gee on the Bob and Tom Show says
about Twitter and I say about the whole internet.
The internet is the worst bar you've ever been
in in your entire life.
Yes. He said that I'm like,
you're dead on because it's just,
sometimes the voiceless doesn't need a voice.
You know, you're embraced for hating stuff
and you're hated for loving anything.
Exactly.
It's just, it's the worst bar you've ever been in your life.
But if people said,
give me a Ghostbusters sequel and they did
and then you didn't like it,
you got what you asked for.
And Chad, want you to prayer yourself
because I'm about to make a reference
that now officially can tie this show
into Star Wars.
Yes.
Let's just go, let's rewind the clock about four months
when we were part of something called
the Dallas International Film Festival.
Any friends of ours,
we love them, wonderful people.
We did a little show
on the night of the awards ceremony.
And there were a couple of gentlemen
who literally hijacked our show for 30 minutes.
And I gotta say,
30 of the best minutes in the history of the show.
April 18th.
The day that the episode 7 trailer.
Christopher Miller and Phil Lord
are directing the young Han Solo film.
So we can now tie this show
to Star Wars in one step.
Is that what they talked about?
I think when they said,
we got something up that we can't talk about,
I think this was it.
So this is going to be part of the Star Wars franchise.
This is part of what they're calling the anthology.
So it's anthology films.
We've got a Kenobi one
and we've got this one there.
And a Fett one too.
This is a Solo Slash Fett.
Yeah, I thought this was so combining into it.
I'm a little if-on,
but these two guys who did more for this show
than they ever had to,
you know,
and we're going to talk more about that.
I don't want to take too much of the list up,
but they're directing the young Han Solo film.
And then we go to the other side of that coin.
Marissa Tome is Aunt May.
I feel so old.
It'd be your job.
I saw the wrestler.
She doesn't look that old.
No, she doesn't.
And all the photos.
And she did something else recently that we screened,
that she was really good in.
What the heck was that movie she did with you, Grant,
where he was a struggling screenwriter
and he was giving a screenwriting class
and she was one of his students.
He's happy internet.
I'm just trying to think about the top of my head, smart guy.
I want to say it's the writer or something like that.
You know what?
I'm excited.
I'm sad to see that Sally Field won't be returning
because I think she's been so good.
She's so good.
But they gave her the same thing.
It's like, okay, in this scene, you're going to cry.
Yeah.
And then in this scene, you're going to cry.
But it's like, it's like Aunt May is getting younger.
Yeah, but Spider-Man is really young now.
So they've actually cast a really young man.
But wasn't she still old and ultimate when he was a kid?
When he was that young?
In ultimate, she just looked, she just had gray hair shorter.
She was more active than the feeble Aunt May that you had
in your old 616 Marvel.
They were old hippies more or less.
Yeah, exactly.
I just put her on the screen.
It's just thank you anyway.
Yeah, I mean, I love the Marissa Tomei.
She's got an Oscar.
Yeah, but you put an Oscar, hey, you put a great actor
into a superhero role.
Go for it.
I just can't believe we're spending more time talking about
Marissa Tomei's Aunt May than we are about
young Han Solo and the casting possibilities there.
Well, because I really, I need Disney to drive the boat here.
I need Disney to just take my childhood and restore it.
That's what I need Disney to do.
I just want to see Nathan Philly and his Han Solo.
But that's just me.
You think they're going to go that old?
I don't see why not.
I think young Han Solo.
I'm going back.
Are you talking about like Young Han Solo Chronicles
where you have like an old Nathan Philly
and telling stories of his young?
Oh, no, because I could get Harrison to do that.
No, because then you'd have, you know, it was a kid
of as much things that happened to me.
I was in as far as I got the push-up in that big girl.
Yeah, I think Nathan's a bearative storyteller.
Was it Wesley Snipes?
Was it loitering with the internet?
Was it the one that you're talking about that we did the review on?
I'm trying to figure out what you're trying to do.
Uh, Wesley Snipes says there are talks for Blade 4.
I saw the trailer for his new show coming out.
Not really on board.
The player on NBC.
I thought it was something different than what the trailer I saw showed me.
I'd like to see Blade, he can be it.
Someone else can be it.
As long as it isn't that TV version, they tried to sell us.
You were a fan of that weren't you?
I enjoyed it, but it wasn't as bad as I thought.
Everybody said it was, but it wasn't great.
I like Blade 2, but I think Batman.
And once that dude was in Onyx.
So every time I was, I was one who slammed.
Dude, dude, dude, dude.
Every time he was on screen.
And I thought the girl on that was great.
Yeah, yeah, but I mean, it just wasn't.
It didn't have the same tone.
I felt the movies and you know, now that we're developing, you know,
the Marvel television universe and we've got the Marvel nights going,
it makes sense to put in blades.
Would you take another shot at that television wise?
Or maybe maybe a Netflix thing?
I would do a Netflix thing.
I would do it.
And I would do it animated.
But didn't they do that when they had that anime thing with Iron Man?
Didn't they do Blade?
They did do Blade.
All those were really kind of weird.
They weren't the same tone that the films.
Would you have peanut patrelli as Iron Man?
And you had, and you had Nate patrelli as Wolverine.
That is true.
That's right.
That's right.
Strange.
We talked about in pre-show.
The killing joke will be coming later this year as an animated film.
Oh god.
Are you later next year?
Very excited.
Yes.
We've been talking about that for years.
I just hope they can get the art style right.
I don't know how you're going to translate.
Your lens aren't working.
You're not.
You're not.
You have to accept that Brian Bowlin is a master at his craft.
They did a pretty good job with Dark Knight though.
They did a pretty good job.
And Frank has a different style.
But the fine line art of Brian Bowlin,
I don't think can be duplicated for animation.
And I'm accepting that and moving on.
And whatever they give me, I'll be happy.
Dark Knight returns worked.
Well, we were discussing that earlier about the lack of voice over.
Well, I'm just talking about from an animation standpoint.
Oh, I'm just saying artistically.
It looks like Miller's artwork in motion.
So hopefully they can do the same thing with Bowlin.
It was so weird watching that and not having the same voices in my head
that I read that with.
I agree with you.
It removed something from like us older fans who grew up,
you know, reading it an issue at a time.
What the biggest, one of the biggest
pants wedding moments of my life was in Batman the Animated Series.
When they did that story of those three kids that were sitting around talking about
legends of the Dark Knight, legends of the Dark Knight,
and the girl that look like Carrie Hinn from Dark Knight tells her version.
And you remember who the voice was of Batman and her version
that looked just like Dark Knight returns?
No.
Michael Fricken iron side.
And it killed.
Killed.
Still want to see.
I would have liked to see Stacey Keach.
That's just me.
Green Lantern is now going to be Green Lantern Core for 2020.
DC, don't care.
Well played sir.
But the rumors I'm hearing.
Chris Pine.
Was it Tyrie Skibson?
It wasn't that the two that we'd heard.
Yeah, because I've been really rooting for common to play that role.
You and everybody else in America ever since the George Miller Justice League film that never happened.
Yeah, fantastic cast has that.
Yeah, when you when you when you mentioned Maxwell Lord earlier, I was like,
Jay Barrishell was cast as Max Lord in that film.
And I want to see that so bad now.
Uh, fantastic four will not be in 3D.
They've stopped the 3D conversion.
Yes, if you don't shoot it in 3D, don't convert it.
Okay, all right.
All right, looks like Clash of the Titans.
Can I say Clash of the Titans anyone?
That's a now I'd feel Dan Fogler, very underrated actor in my personal opinion.
It's a carriage house.
I'm alone on this.
I for me, when I remember from him is the Ping Pong Kung Fu movie.
Oh, I'm so sorry.
Have you seen fanboys?
It's a good movie.
Oh, I have.
I have seen fanboys.
It's about the Star Wars.
Yes.
The last line of the film.
What if it sucks?
What if it sucks?
But he's going to be a muggle in the fantastic beasts and where to find them.
Love him.
Love him on the Goldbergs too.
Oh god, it shows so good.
It's so good.
What a best shows on television in my personal opinion.
Yes.
M. Night Shyamalan saying, unbreakable two is a possibility.
Don't do it.
Because he's now getting cred back because Wayward Pines is doing so well
which rush the chatroom says his girlfriend watches.
I've watched every.
I've heard good things, but he doesn't ride it though, does he?
I don't even know what he does.
They say he's getting cred back from it.
So he's doing something.
Because I thought he directed the pilot and that was it.
No, this thing started slow but then about 4th or 5th episode.
It hit it to the floor when he was away from the show.
It started getting better.
There's only two left.
That's what it sounds like.
There's only two left.
It's only two left.
All right.
Deep breath.
Friday night.
San Diego Comic Con.
The Star Wars panel happens.
Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Harrison Ford, all there.
Where Harrison Ford was talking about the original story.
It was like it was kind of like being in a plane with me.
You strap in, you hold on, you hope you land well.
Credit to Harrison Ford.
Well done.
Have you seen the feature that they showed?
Yes, I did.
It's about what three and a half minutes or so.
Yes.
Where they show you how everything's practical effects.
Tons of just the scene, the sets.
Like I cried.
I was like, oh my god.
Is Simon Pegg the luckiest fanboy in the world ever ever?
Star Trek, Star Wars.
It's the right.
The next Star Trek.
He is in this.
He was in land of the dead.
What else is left, sir?
He's just like, I think he just wakes up every day and goes,
yep, I'm still Simon Pegg.
It's good to meet me.
Yeah.
Rogue One starts filming in three weeks.
Dear God.
Yes.
So when's Rogue One come out next year?
All right.
I'll tell you because what we're doing is we're doing episode seven
and then we're going to have other movies that are going to bridge
those movies and the anthology stuff too.
Just because Disney knows how to keep things relevant.
So how long did Frozen run?
Seven, eight, nine, or two years apart.
And is that true?
Was it two or three where they go on this, Chad?
Do you remember?
When do we get eight?
I thought we get eight.
Don't we get eight next December?
No, it's next December.
2017.
Okay.
So it's going to be every two years though.
15, 17, 19.
So it's a two year side.
The new trailer is not going to debut until the fall.
We were really hoping for a new trailer this weekend.
Give me a one sheet.
I love it.
There's a teaser one out there now.
It's just the logo on a field of stars.
That's not a one sheet.
It's a teaser.
I got that poster at the Alamo Draft House
for telling my love of Star Wars.
That's really?
Yes.
And so it's sitting up in my house.
We love the Alamo Draft House.
It is.
We would be glad to see our show there.
It is awesome.
John Boyega tells the story
where he walked the floor in a trooper helmet
and he got into a lightsaber fight.
How would you like to be that guy realizing
that was boy a good night?
Dom Hall Gleason, best line of the night.
The ass of his character was eel.
He goes, he's British.
So yeah.
Question, what's the rogue one?
Who's that going to be the pot of?
We don't know for sure.
We are hearing rumors that it is Oscar Isaac's character.
Did you also hear the Grunbergs in this thing?
Oh, wait a minute.
Oh, really?
Grunbergs in it.
He said he's project of role three.
I'm like Grunberg!
Yes!
So you know, you know, I'm big of a fan of
a great Grunberg guy.
So we don't know if it's the Han Solo or the Yellow?
No, Rogue One is going to deal with the current.
It's dealing with this part of the story
but not necessarily in the canon.
Rogue Squadron was basically the first time we heard it used
cinematically was in the Battle of Hoth
because they were all red squadron in episode four.
They really weren't referred to as Rogue.
It was red this and gold.
And red and gold.
And yeah, thanks for that.
So, um,
it's been a long time since then.
I thought it was supposed to be doing like a Yoda film
and a Chewbacca film and all that stuff too.
I would love to see a Chewbacca film.
I would like to see a Chewbacca film for reasons of...
We have heard some of that, man.
Yes, we do.
And we really love Susan Jacobs.
We're going to go up right here.
I wanted to see...
I wanted all stuff of the title and all done on Kashiek.
The footage of him in the featureette.
You want to be like, yes.
In the featureette, I'm going to spoil this.
He makes the noise.
Because there does the most out-of-cost.
Yes, like he has the mask off.
And it's so funny because he's always said the one thing
people always ask him about is the noise.
He's like, I never made the noise.
The noise was made after.
And he makes the noise in this.
And he got a Chewbacca's now in Madame Tussauds in New York.
Yes.
In the cockpit.
I saw it.
They showed a clip, but they showed a little piece of it
on last week's tonight with John Oliver.
Which is one of my new...
Another one of my favorite shows on television.
Which comes back tonight.
Are you curious at all if JJ will take
and put any gungan in any scene at any moment in the film?
Well, the tumblers underneath the falcon.
So anything's possible.
Do you saw that, didn't you?
No.
He did a...
Because you know, they have the full size falcon.
The full size, yeah.
He does a camera shot.
It was like for the fans.
Where he comes up underneath the falcon.
And the hatch.
There's a back tumbler.
In it.
You have to look real close.
Oh, I've seen that photo.
Okay, I have seen that photo.
From what I've read,
Harrison Ford seemed incredibly humble during this thing.
Really?
Like he was just like, look, this thing started my career.
It's an honor for me to even be a part of this thing still.
Like I was reading Entertainment Weekly's coverage.
And from all of the quotes they were giving from him,
like he seemed really, really humble in this thing.
For a guy who has distanced from this thing for 30 years.
Yeah.
I'm right now.
I'm hopeful.
Okay, so I gotta ask something else.
Because we were talking about this.
And I want to tie this to another story.
Sure.
So what do you think about actors that don't return
to roles that kind of made their career?
And I'm referencing Zachary Quinto
not coming back to heroes.
But they're not recasting the role.
But he apparently,
he was not going to return.
Like it was more of like, it's not even an issue.
For me.
I mean, not that that's Star Wars.
I know we're talking on two different levels.
But we can see where you're going.
Yeah, I mean, he made that show.
I mean, a great villain can make a great show.
For me.
If it were imperative to the show,
and they recast it, it would bum me out.
Because I don't want another Koi advanced dukes of Hazard incident.
But you won't be able to get the dukes of Hazard now.
Yeah, that's true.
Better get your DVDs now.
No one has ever said run out and get in.
It has.
It's actually not in a new hero's end as well.
No, Zach Quinto is not.
In that specific case,
I'm actually cool with it because now,
have you seen the new three and a half minute trailer that came out?
Yeah, and I'm excited for it.
I'm like, you know what?
I'm okay with this.
Because of the direction they're going in it.
Just the clip of HRG opening the envelope and the glasses coming out.
And that agent standing right behind him.
I'm like, oh my god.
I was excited to see hero.
That was my favorite.
And that line at the end.
Yeah.
So question.
What do you think Camel and Fisher charged for not a graph at Comic Con this weekend?
300 probably.
Comic Con sets that.
They don't.
Oh, they get a set there.
Comic Con sets that.
Dallas Comic Con is a little bit more liberal with that.
But San Diego sets the prices.
Oh, do they?
The way it works is San Diego sets the prices.
And when you buy tickets to get autographs,
when you get the autographs, you give the ticket to the celebrity.
The celebrity turns those tickets in and they get a piece of the tickets.
Okay.
I mean, that's how it works in C2 when I was when I was there.
So I'm assuming it's the same kind of a deal.
It's probably a lot more pretty now than just where your red tickets.
I'm sure they have other things now.
But for me, that that part of it's gotten out of control.
And that that part of it really like hurts my soul with pictures and stuff now.
It just.
Yeah.
You can't get anything for under $20 for a D list.
And anything, you know, Mark Camel's charging 150 two years ago for anything
Star Wars.
Mark Camel, he can do it.
I'm okay, but I'm okay with it.
Now Chad, yes, sir.
I want you to read the next bullet point very slowly.
I'm going to give you a minute.
I got to pull the run sheet back up because I had to reboot my computer.
Because I'm we talk about episode nine.
And we talk about directors.
Oh, Jurassic World director Colin Trevorow
is in talks to direct episode nine, which I thought JJ was coming back.
No, I thought he was taking eight off and then coming back for nine.
But the guy that directed Jurassic World is in talks to director episode nine.
Then it isn't capable hands.
I'm okay with this.
You know, again, no desire to see Jurassic World, but from the footage I've seen, I'm cool.
You need to watch this.
So is everyone's directing an episode eight?
Who is directing episode eight?
I just lost it.
I mean, is this the last one director's here?
Joe Schumacher?
Shut your dirty mouth.
I just checked it.
See if you all are paying attention.
It's not shaman on my ding dong.
All the all the stormtroopers will have nipples on their costumes.
And we're going to find out that Jingo Fett was actually George Clooney.
Gonna kill another franchise Clooney.
Thanks.
Yeah, you really should look at that Comic Con real Chad.
That's what Mikey was just asking me about.
Yeah, that's definitely, definitely a high nostalgic factor.
Makes you feel 10 years old.
Ryan Johnson.
Oh, that's right.
That's where the guy who did the loopers got together.
Okay, okay.
Seven.
All right.
So, interesting.
Moving your releases in places you see moving your releases this week.
All right, Chad, you ready for this?
Because I'm going to telegraph this one for you.
Look at the first leg on the list.
Here we go.
Get shut up.
You moron.
Ant man, this week hearing very polarizing reviews so far.
I saw a concern.
I saw a headline that said Marvel's first flop.
And then two posts later, I saw a headline that said Marvel wraps up face to right.
So you will, you will know our opinions by the end of this week.
So yeah, I've got tickets.
Subscribe on iTunes if you haven't already.
I've got my premiere tickets.
I'm going to see that.
I'm going to see Trainwreck.
I am cautiously optimistic because I thought
Ant man was a weird way to go for a solo film.
It is.
And I think the Edgar Wright director leaving kind of hurt it a lot,
because then people have an expectation.
A lot of people have high expectations for him.
And that's that's worrisome.
I mean, you did see what Michael Doug was throughout there, right?
What?
He wants his wife to play Wasp.
20 years ago.
Absolutely.
Now, not so much.
Still good.
Still good.
Looks great.
Yeah, yeah.
Don't get me wrong, but not as.
No, no.
I'm checking in on munking.
I'm going to check it in on munking.
Oh, Trainwreck, which play just mentioned.
I'm interested.
I'm very interested.
I love Amy Schumer, but you know what?
I am Vanessa Bayer's in it.
Who I'm a big fan of?
I'm sorry.
I like big fan of hers, but I love Bill Hader.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
He is fantastic.
And he's in inside out inside out.
He plays fear.
Love him.
Granted.
Best casting me in the whole film.
What's your kind?
Lewis Black.
He's brilliant in that movie.
He is.
He's so good.
Uh, LeBron James.
Yeah, he looks like it looks like like.
Yes, they have added to the hairline.
Let's just say it.
But he in the trailer, he looks hilarious.
He does. He does.
And the clip with him talking about Cleveland.
Have you seen that clip yet?
No.
Where he's talking to Bill Hader.
He's like, you'll come to me.
Well, you know, I'm busy.
He's like, you were too busy to go miles in Miami.
He's like, it's Miami.
And this is interesting.
This is this is going to be a real
weird transition, because we've seen Bill Hader play.
I was going to say a romantic lead.
A romantic lead.
And the only thing I can think I can compare it to is
and this is not comparing him to John Belushi,
but when John Belushi did continental divide,
you went from playing, you know,
a crazy and sane guy in Animal House
to being like a romantic lead.
Bill Hader is the character guy.
And now he's playing a romantic lead.
And you know, who else is in this gentleman?
John Chena.
Oh, yeah.
The little sly, but his line in the trailer
for a guy calls him Markey Mark.
He's like, we've talked about.
I'm bigger than Markey Mark.
I look like a Markey Mark.
Eight Markey Mark.
And how his character evolves,
which we'll talk about off air.
A lot of the John Chena haters are going to be happy.
That's all I'm saying.
Remind me when we get off air.
I'll be very, very happy.
Remind me when we get off air.
We'll talk about it.
Also, the wide release for Mr. Holmes,
which I really do want to see.
Yeah.
But another one I think can wait.
Can wait.
And the Stanford prison experiment.
Have you seen this trailer?
Yes, this is it.
I'm excited to see this.
This is based on a true story from the 70s.
Where it's that Stanford University.
And what they did is they did a,
like it's basically a,
is it, was you call it sociological?
Yes.
Yeah.
So they took a group of students.
And they made half of them prisoners
and half of them prison guards in a mock experiment.
And it was a two weeks or something.
24 male students out of 75 were selected to take
on a randomly assigned roles of prisoners and guards
in a mock prison situated in the basement
of the Stanford psychology building.
Billy crewed ups in this.
Ezra Miller's in this.
Ty Sheridan's in this.
That trailer is, because it goes,
it goes completely awry.
Yeah.
It goes completely awry.
Yeah.
Everything here, I think they thought
was going to happen.
Goes off the rails.
And it gets a lot more serious than they planned on it.
The guard, the guys paying the guards
start acting like real prison guards
and mistreating the inmates.
And they're like, we need to pull the plug
and Kudrip goes, no, I want to see how this plays out.
Watch the trailer.
The thing I hope the most on this is that
when this comes out on DVD, we get a documentary
with it that shows that it goes into the real thing.
I remembered hearing about this years and years and years ago.
And I saw that I have the trailers app on my phone
and it had that and I'm like, is this the thing
I remembered being?
And I pulled up and I was like, holy cow.
Russ says that Bill Hader is from his hometown of Tulsa, Oklahoma.
I did not know Bill Hader was from Tulsa.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He tells a great story about meeting Ben Stiller
like at his school.
And I kind of inspired him to do comedy.
And now he works with him.
A DVD and Blu-ray new releases in places
you get DVD and new releases this week.
One of my favorite movies of the year, X Machina.
Very interesting to say the least.
Tell me you've seen this, sir.
No, I'm waiting for DVD.
Go.
It's my problem originally when I heard Oscar Isaac
was going to play Apocalypse after X Machina.
I'm good.
Really?
Yes, you see it.
When I saw the most violent year,
I was like, I don't see it.
I don't get it.
It doesn't make any sense to me.
I saw the Star Wars trailer.
I'm like, okay, it's good for this,
but I still don't see Apocalypse.
After X Machina, I see Apocalypse.
I've only seen him in Drive.
So that's the only thing I can judge him on.
Oh, really?
Most violent year was, okay, best.
Yeah.
It wasn't what I was hoping for.
Also, X-Men days of future pass, the Rogue Cut.
I'm in, which I'm interested in.
But again, I need to go back and watch days of future pass
again before I watch the Rogue Cut.
So I can see the DVD.
I watch it over and over again.
I really love it.
The only thing that I miss is, you know,
you get a lot more Kitty Pride in the book.
You do.
And this is kind of a bro road trip, kind of,
if you want to.
And for those of you that don't understand,
this is actually going to be the story
from Rogue's point of view, not Wolverines.
So I'm kind of interested in this.
Yeah.
I want to understand it only.
It's like about 15 to 17 minutes to the runtime.
And they screened at Comic Con, didn't they?
I don't know.
I thought they did.
Although I didn't do it.
The timing would have been right.
Although speaking of Comic Con,
I did, we'll talk about that in tech talk.
It follows.
It may make one of my lists at the end of the year.
Do not rant this thing.
Oh, I've heard great things.
Oh, no.
Don didn't like it.
I didn't go to the screening.
So I'm really into the horror community.
And a lot of them have embraced it and said,
this was now, this was really a different take
than a lot of your paranormal stuff, things like that.
An exercise.
So for that type of film, it was one of the top.
But it was the, the second best exotic
married gold hotel this week.
Another movie that Chad is actually already got reserved.
He'll be picking up Tuesday morning,
Paul Boyd, Mall Cop 2.
The longest ride, which didn't that just get released
like three weeks ago?
I think so.
What is that?
This is one of those girl falls in love with a boy,
but then she meets an older guy,
played by Alan Alden.
He tells his story about his love from World War II
and at parallel is the story she's going through.
Is this the one that was written by the guy that wrote
Fault in Our Stars?
No, no, that comes out next week.
You're talking paper towns.
It's a little story.
Oh, paper towns.
Yeah, no, it's completely different moving.
I've read paper towns.
I love it.
I'm so excited to see this film.
I am like, you know, a 13 year old girl
over here about this movie, but I really love the book.
I mean, we're going to screen it.
Oh, really?
Yeah, we got a screening invitation for it.
I've already reserved for.
For those of you that don't have play stations,
you'll be able to finally watch Powers Season 1,
which I thought was a horrible marketing.
Oh, really that bad.
I watched the first episode and it's like a fan film
and then when you read who's involved, it's embarrassing.
Oh, dude.
It was very low quality and I was very embarrassed.
I could only suggest you read the books.
They're so fantastic.
I love to, who killed Retro Girl.
Oh, yeah, I mean, just so great.
And I don't know why the TV show's gone so wrong.
For those of you that don't know,
Powers is basically a buddy cop series, male and female cops,
and they deal with crimes against heroes, basically.
Yeah.
In a world full of superheroes, this is the crime division.
Criterion collection has three releases this week,
the Black Stallion,
getting the Criterion Collection treatment,
as well as Hiroshima, Monomore, and here is your life.
They've been cranking out stuff every week
for like the last two years.
But it really seems like they're kind of
watering down the brand name to me.
I've heard that opinion.
There's some of this up they put out that Travolta movie.
Blow up?
Yeah, blow out.
Not one of it.
Look who's talking.
So they actually did look who's talking again.
They skipped the first one and they did it.
So if you need something to use as a coaster,
Clouds of Sills Maria hits DVD and Blu-ray this week,
that will definitely make a list of vine-later this year.
It's an expensive coaster.
Oh, it, oh, God.
I've got to missed out on that one, too.
We've still got a couple of cops
that are much better at playing around if you need a coaster.
And WWE Money in the Bank, 2015,
it's DVD and Blu-ray this week.
I will watch it on the network if I want to watch it.
All right, another coaster.
Tech Talk.
More San Diego Comic Con stuff.
They did say they did release two,
a couple of teaser posters for Warcraft.
Looks great.
Looks great.
Trailer's coming in November.
Duncan Jones involved.
I'll watch it just based on that,
even though I love Warcraft.
So.
Xbox One.
Kevin Smith's a little upset.
He's Hall H of panel, followed J.J.'s.
And at the end of J.J.'s,
he took the entire room down the street
to a Star Wars concert.
He being J.J. not Kevin.
It's so Kevin, didn't have anybody for the Yo-Goals?
Somebody got their thunder stolen.
Yeah, he actually took a picture.
He's like, this is Hall H right now.
Okay, and it's, you can fire a cannon through there
and not hit a soul.
I'm not hating.
I do love Kevin Smith.
He's lost his touch a little bit in the past few years.
But does he really deserve Hall H?
Not at this point.
I mean, I was hoping that the Yo-Goals
or trailer was gonna be online today,
but I haven't found it.
Yeah, and they've had more leaks this year.
Why don't they just show the damn trailer?
Or just as soon as you show it, put it online.
Yeah, exactly.
Suicide squad, put it online.
Deadpool, put it online.
You know, it was like last year with that seven seconds
that Zach showed of Batman V Superman,
by the way, that new trailer is amazing.
Like that never hit the web.
It never hit the web unless you were cluck quick enough,
which I was to catch the cam footage
before it was taken down.
All right.
Just put it out there.
I mean, give the San Diego people first crack at it.
I'm okay with that.
I was kind of, what I was expecting this year for Marvel
since they weren't doing San Diego
was them having their own thing
and then just dropping footage, releasing.
And all they've done is all,
or at least all I've seen has been the Jessica Jones photos.
I saw the stills.
Yeah.
That one's another gamble.
Right now, they have some gambles happening.
And I think Ant-Man and Jessica Jones
are some questionable.
But at least Jessica Jones is one of the Netflix things.
So you can kind of, it's not as big of a gamble
as it could be.
Right.
What do you think a budget on a 16 episode series
on Netflix is versus a movie?
20%.
Because you're not having to do film.
You're not having to promote
because Netflix is going to promote it for you.
No, that's true.
Yeah, you did the press release.
It's coming.
Get ready for it.
And because you don't,
I mean, you never saw Daredevil promos on television.
You just knew it was coming because it was on Netflix.
I need to know how a marketing guy can walk in
and say, I really need to advertise a Marvel movie.
Because no one's going to know about it
unless I put it on posters and buses
and get trailers out there and buy ad time.
But in some cases, like, it does sell itself.
But something like Guardians.
Guardians was a huge risk.
Because you got people like you and I,
I'm a huge fan of Guardians.
Now, this Guardians is not my Guardians.
Yeah.
My Guardians is 1992.
But the fact that they did Guardians at all,
it was a ballsy move.
Yeah.
So God, it was as good as it was.
So maybe the marketing for that is justified.
But the advertisement you'll see for Star Wars
is that how much do you think that you should spend
on advertising for something like that?
In some cases, I get that.
It does sell itself on a certain level.
But you've got to have the tie-ins.
That's where you're going to make a tenure.
Because your markup there is going to be bigger.
I guess.
The toys and the books and the comic books.
Right.
Your markup there is going to be better.
The cups at seven.
Now, all these people that are clamoring about all these movies
and making all this money, Jurassic World, blah, blah, blah.
It all goes away December 18th.
All of those records go to the Silver Medal
on December 18th.
If this movie is a 10th of as good as it looks,
it's going to make 350 million dollars.
But remember Star Wars Episode One.
But again, and it pulled in a ton of cash.
Right.
If this movie is a 10th of as good as it looks,
we're measuring.
The Sony Star Wars Episode One.
We're measuring the money and not the movie.
Right.
This is a whole different ball game.
We realized, if you remember leading up to Episode One,
Lucas showed us boop-guess.
He was so cryptic about what he was putting online
and what was out there.
JJ, although a certain level of cryptic,
JJ has kind of pulled the curtain back a little bit.
And also online back in 98 was not the online
in 2015.
Now is this going to be 3D in this one?
I haven't heard either way.
I thought it was.
I thought there was a 3D tag at the end of the teaser.
Oh, there was.
You were right.
There was one.
Yeah, because the trailer was in the teaser itself.
That's right.
Oh, my God, when we saw that for the all-tron.
I mean, you are you are gauging your reaction to Episode One
when you saw the teaser for Episode One.
You're talking about a bunch of fans
that were starving to death.
Well, how long have they been waiting now?
Well, not nearly as long, but still they've been waiting.
Not nearly as long as they kept us placated with like stuff
like Star Wars Rebels, which is freaking amazing.
And I haven't watched the new episode yet.
I still haven't.
So you've got that one.
And you've got like a three or four month weight
to you in another episode.
But God wouldn't know.
When did Episode Three come out?
1983.
No, Episode Three.
2005, 2005, 10 years ago.
10 years ago, OK.
Which is half the time we were almost half the time.
I know, 16, a little bit less.
But I have a better feeling about this
than I had about that.
Don't give me wrong.
Don't give me wrong.
Yeah, I mean, it's going to break every box off.
Because I remember when they announced the title of Episode One,
I went, hmm.
When they announced the title of Episode Seven,
I was like, OK, you have my attention.
It's also, and God, I hate it.
They're not to say this.
It's in better hands.
And how sad is that clay?
Well, I think you're coming off of the disappointment.
So your expectations low and then,
and so all we had was going into, OK, when did Disney just
bought his film?
Our beloved properties.
Yeah.
And they're not going to sit on it.
So what's the best thing that can happen?
And JJ, I don't know.
He's in a lot of toy boxes.
He's in the Star Trek world.
He's in the Star Wars world.
And he's admitted that his love of Star Wars has hurt
when he's done Star Trek.
Because he wants to do Star Wars in Star Trek.
Well, but it's like you told me a couple of weeks
ago, he's already directed a great Star Wars movie called
Star Trek.
You know, he made Star Trek sexy, which no one's ever
been able to say in the history of ever.
And it's so funny.
All those years later, the after you and I
walked out of that screening of Star Trek, I'm like, just
imagine if they gave a guy like that.
He said those words as we walked out of the IMAX theater.
But I want to point out his red shirt, which I'll explain.
His love of Lucas and Spielberg, if you also go back and look
at Super 8, Super 8 was what he wanted.
It was his Spielberg film.
Yeah, it was his ET more.
And that just was a very bad imitation.
I haven't seen Super 8.
It's a very bad imitation.
And that's my concern is that he does that again.
But hopefully he's learned from that.
And, you know, I think a lot of our questions are going
to be answered when that new trailer hits.
It's going to take the whole movie.
Yeah, I mean, and then we'll probably
take multiple viewings of the trailer.
Trailers are great, and they build anticipation.
But they also ruin things like the Terminator Genesis, does.
Yeah, see, again, I haven't seen Genesis yet.
I haven't either, because of the trailer,
because I don't really want to.
Any other stuff you guys want to talk about from Comic Con?
Yeah, as it's actually wrapping up as we're talking,
the late breaking celebrity death that we got notified of.
Fitzgerald Chateque.
Please do.
Please do.
I forgot about that.
Yes.
I will restart Alan Parsons project.
This man was an icon of is of our age.
Well, because he's no longer with us.
But he still always be, sir.
And when you say the name Satura Awada,
it may not mean a lot to people just on the surface,
because they don't know who this is.
This guy was the president of Nintendo.
And he passed away yesterday, due to a bile duct growth
for which he'd been previously treated.
This is shocking a lot of people.
I mean, this is huge news.
They'd already announced that he wasn't going to make E3,
because he's always a fixture at E3.
He's always a fixture at Comic Con.
So he missed E3.
He was to say nothing of Comic Con.
And it's really taken the gaming world
by just completely a back.
I'm having trouble coming up with words for it.
Well, he's brought it to where it is today.
I mean, to have the kind of shows
and having the kind of launches we have,
it is because of what he built.
And he's got a very charismatic presence
that his previous, his predecessor really didn't have.
And you can go on about like, well,
it's really more about Microsoft versus Sony in this.
No, no, no.
PlayStation was such a major player back in the day.
People don't understand how important Nintendo is
in the gaming world.
Well, you know why the PlayStation exists
in the first place, right?
Because Nintendo, they approached Nintendo
for a CD-ROM drive.
Did you see that someone recently found one of their...
Yes, yeah.
Someone like a Super NES CD.
Yeah, so it exists in somebody found one.
There was really 200 made in this guy found one
in his parents attic.
And it's a CD drive and you can see the Super Nintendo
connector for the controller, right?
And there's two of them.
And I was like, mind blown.
Yeah, but it will never be the Sangerine game.
No, but the gaming world has lost an icon.
Absolutely, yeah.
It's really sad.
I was watching one of the shows that I watched
Halt and Catch Fire, weeks, two weeks ago's episode.
The main characters, kids were at another kid's house
and they had an Nintendo.
And as they were talking, it was in Los House.
And as they were talking, I could,
you could hear Super Mario Brothers in the background.
And there's just something so soothing about...
And I was just like, that makes me so happy.
Incidentally, he created the have him team up
with everyone else in that show.
And run that like, I don't know, kind of a weird mashup
of good and evil versus the world.
Yeah, is that what's just going to turn into?
Well, the trailer, they didn't do a...
They did a new trailer, but they added no new content.
And I'm kind of bummed about it,
but it looks great because they're taking...
They took stuff straight off the page and brought it in.
So it's like, you're seeing everything from the page,
brought to the screen with the art,
with the characters, who's gonna play them?
I'm excited.
There's a couple of characters I'd love to see, D.C. Touch,
just to really blow their mind.
I'd love to see them do Doom Patrol.
I would be really excited.
So I did some research and I looked up the CWC'd.
That's where Vixen will be playing.
For me, D.C.'s doing everything right on TV
that Marvel isn't.
They're really not every show I love and it's different.
And that's what's so fantastic about it.
CWC'd is like their digital online stuff.
So Vixen will be available online.
Animated, you know, this one I'm kind of concerned with,
but all the people who do the shows
are gonna be there doing their voices.
So that's great.
I love to see that and I hate to see people
trying to do poor imitations of those actors.
Indeed.
All right, gentlemen, Street Lights on.
I think I've got audacity up and running now.
We're gonna have to really kind of mess with this
when the show's over, so very upset about this.
All right, we end every show with a list.
Tonight is no different, but it kind of is
because this is the last show of season five.
Tomorrow, five years ago, Cody Hawkins and I sat
in this very room in a completely different configuration.
And we tried something out as an idea that Chad and I had
a few months earlier.
All the stuff that we sit around and talk about,
like why shouldn't we put this on wax?
And my thought process was, who the heck would listen to that?
We would listen to it because this is what we do,
but who would actually listen to this crap?
It is now five years later.
Not only are we still doing this, but it's still going.
It's more than I ever dreamed it could be.
So what I thought we'd do is I just
picked 10 of my favorite memories from the last five years,
and we can kind of add to that as well.
Number 10, almost a year ago, this show lost one
of its biggest proponents, one of its biggest fans
and one of my closest friends by the name of Chris Coronado.
We did a memorial show for him the next week
with a couple of guys that we're good friends with
and fans of the show.
That is one of my favorite shows we've ever done.
We need to get them back in here too.
We almost lost that show and it freaked me out
because I audacity decided that night
it didn't want to behave itself.
Number nine, our first phone interview that we ever did,
Cody and I did with a minor league baseball coach
out in West Texas, who at the time had Jose
Canseco on his team.
We missed having Jose on the show by like five minutes.
He actually was going to do the show.
Really?
I came home from work early.
I didn't even know how to wire a phone into the board.
You know, I had to Google that to figure out
how to make it work.
And it was, it was a really neat,
I won't be able to replay that sometime.
Number eight, episode three, the very first ladies wrestling
round table was before we were live on Ustream.
We weren't live on Ustream until episode five.
You can actually get our first three or four episodes
at the website for the library of Congress.
That is where we stored it.
We stored the show there.
Nice.
And it was, it was just something I thought on my message.
You can go to the library, Congress's website.
I wonder what Congress is so screwed up.
Yeah, you know, they heard that and went,
well, this is America, we got this easy.
That first ladies wrestling round table, it was me and Cody,
Charlotte, Tanya, and Misty.
We had two microphones.
It was an absolute mess.
But we had so much fun.
Two weeks later, we decided to go live on Ustream with it.
The rest is history there.
We've had, of course, all three of them
at different points back on the show.
Charlotte is the Justin Timberlake of this show
because she could call me right now
and still make sure she got on.
Tanya, we don't get to see as much anymore.
She's got family things going on.
Her oldest just had a birthday.
Alice's birthday was this past week.
Misty did some marketing for us for a while.
Love her to death, which we could have her on more often.
She said she's good to go, just let her know when.
So we're gonna have her on very soon.
Number seven, Don joining the show.
That was a...
I don't know how it happened, it just happened.
It just happened, it was a Fox and Hound thing.
He's done a lot of great work.
A lot of the things that we're able to do with this show,
we could not do without him
or would not have been able to do without him.
His persistence is something that is unmatched
in this life.
Sometimes we gotta reel him in a little bit.
Oh yeah.
But you do a great job, sir.
That's why you are a highlight of us joining the show.
And I appreciate you guys adding me in.
Number six, November of 2012, in 2011,
was when Chad officially joined the show,
was right before Thanksgiving.
Cody had wanted to move on to some other projects.
And Chad, without even thinking about it,
was like, I'll be there Sunday,
or actually we were on Tuesdays back there.
So Tuesdays are Saturdays.
The show started on Tuesday, then went to Saturday
and then went to Sunday.
Just right on it, never missed a beat.
And has been able to help me out with a lot of things.
And I could not be more thankful.
Number five, the first live show,
we referenced it a couple of minutes ago.
Episode five, it was the very first Sunday in August.
It was also the Sunday before we did
our summer slam pre-show,
because I was out of town that weekend.
So we pre-taped it, released it to you stream
on the day of the pay-per-view.
That was nerve-racking.
Because I don't even think we were using music back then.
Oh, I can't remember when the music started.
But I just remember just,
it was completely nerve-racking.
I'm like, this is happening live right now.
Like right now, this is happening.
It's actually the live aspect of the show,
I think is what sets it apart from a lot of shows,
that people get pre-recorded or whatever,
because it goes out.
It goes out the way it shows.
We're not, we don't, we very rarely edit.
I'm not gonna say we never edit,
because there have been times where we had to edit.
It's because of me.
No, mainly because...
There's been a couple of the iTunes that we had,
drunkards.
Although this year, we just had to put an explicit tag
on that show, because there was so much language.
I'm like, it would take me three days to edit this.
And that was the night of the dip
when something else happened,
and we're gonna talk about a little bit later.
Number four, Elimination Chamber 2011.
That was our first show at Fox and Hound,
who are still friends of ours.
We still love them to death.
We haven't been able to do the show there
in a little over a year,
because they're still trying to get their system upgrades.
But we have nothing but love for the people
from Fox and Hound and Richardson, Texas.
They have been nothing but wonderful to us over the years.
We're looking forward, maybe someday,
of going back there again.
But that first live show, I remember,
because it was listed as Elimination Chamber
on their signage.
And again, we didn't know what the heck we were doing.
Yeah.
You know, Cody and I had never been out of this room.
I was there from here.
You know, and we were just like,
this is either gonna be great,
or this is going to be an absolute disaster.
How was there for the second show on?
And there was like five people, and then when this day ended.
The first show, the first pay-per-view they did
was the month before we were there.
They had three people of them,
three people, two of them didn't drink.
Yeah.
We went in for Elimination Chamber.
We had 30 people,
and most of our empire drinks for various reasons.
By WrestleMania, we filled that place out.
Oh, yeah.
You know, and I remember our second WrestleMania in 2012,
there were 300 people in that building.
We filled up all three rooms.
You had to get there two hours early.
Yeah.
And it was so much fun.
And it broke my heart for us to not be able to do the show there.
But I understand why,
and they're really trying to get a fix.
And as soon as they do, they're gonna let us know.
Number three, we mentioned them earlier in the show,
Christopher Miller and Phil Lloyd.
Phil Lord, April 18th.
Oh, a day which will live in Infra-Medis.
30 minutes of radio gold.
And the best part about that was when everybody was coming
to us after the show going,
you guys totally missed it.
And we're like, no, we didn't.
Because they sang Islands in the stream on our show
before they went over there in second for you guys.
We haven't recorded.
I have to admit something when I got them on.
You know, I try to keep the flow going and stuff.
They took 30 minutes.
Yeah, they did.
About 20 minutes in, I'm thinking,
are we spending too much time with them?
Because the difficulty get mad because they want other people on.
But I just like, no.
They just rolled.
It was just like, there was nothing we could do
even if they wanted to.
And it turned into 30 minutes of podcast brilliance.
Because it was genuinely funny.
It was genuinely off the cuff.
Chicken nuggets.
You've heard, you heard Chad and I completely speechless.
For both of us to be speechless at the same time
is a rarity.
That show did it.
Number two, John Landis.
Like, John Landis is the bar right now.
Yeah.
The fact, the number one that Don pulled that off.
Yeah, it was, it was tough.
But I, number two, we had no warning.
None.
It was like, we're talking to, we're talking to Miller and Lord.
And I look up and dead center between them.
There's John Landis with a pair of headphones on.
And I'm like, here's a question.
And I'll I could do just suck my breath in.
And I was like, oh, he called, he called Miller and Lloyd
Abbott and Costello.
Oh, but in Lou.
He just called, but in Lou.
And he named and accessed like 104 times referring to us.
That's what I thought too.
When I sent Miller down first, you guys didn't even
know he was.
And he's going to go, let go.
And then he, yeah, when you write down, I was like, oh,
that's who this is.
And that's why they don't need a sheet.
And for those of you that don't know the post script
to that story, their screening of the Lego movie
was the next morning at 11 o'clock.
I cannot tell you how many people call me and go, dude,
they were so hungover.
I'm like, yeah, you think we saw him the night before.
But that moment with all three has to, that's at the bar.
I can't.
That picture is, my wife got one of those digital picture
frames, that picture's in there.
It is nobody can say picture it didn't happen because it
happened.
And we have photographs that prove it in audio.
We've had so many great business partners over the years
that still want to do business with us for some reason.
You know, our friends had allied.
Susan Jacobs gave us, I want to do a list on that.
Dallas, Dallas, some are musicals.
AT&T, Performing Arts Center.
Cindy Evans.
Cindy Evans and Taylor Francisco, all of our partners that
have let us do things that we wouldn't have been
able to do otherwise.
You know, it blows my mind.
But once we get on, we love us because we're something
different.
Yeah.
And we're going to keep doing it.
Yeah.
You know, we're not selling it.
Oh, no.
I don't know.
You know, we're 10 episodes away, by the way, sir.
There is someone who is a fan of the show.
I don't want to mention any names, but his initials are bar
wire.
When we get to 10 episodes from tonight's episode, he has assured
me he will be on.
And if you look at tonight's episode number, you'll
understand why.
But he will be here for that episode.
The Empire in general has been so great to us.
Don just got it.
This is episode 306.
Oh, God.
OK.
We forgot to talk about that in video game talk, by the way,
your cover for the video they got next to.
Yeah.
We cannot thank you guys enough.
Without the Empire, we're just a bunch of guys
sitting in a room running our apps.
And whether it's two of you or 20,000 of you,
we cannot thank our friends from that nerd show who are so
awesome to us.
We've gotten to make a lot of great business contacts over
the years, because we're all on this thing together.
So make sure you go out there, support our brothers in
podcasting as much as you support this show.
Make sure you keep talking about this show and getting
other people to listen, because you're the reason we do
this.
We have fun.
We love it.
But we don't have anything without people listening.
Anything you guys want to add?
I got three.
Don, go.
Number one was when I saw unfinished song.
That was your first, that was your first screening.
Our first screening was the grand master.
Yeah, that's the only one to make it.
Almost two years ago, it'll be two years ago next month.
And that was without like just going in this press was
incredible.
But number two, the first death.
Yes.
And that first night after the premier screening and being
under the sky and all that with the pretzels, but just doing
that death and how wonderful that I love the death.
I look forward to the death, even after the death and the
video fest are so much fun.
And number number three is the first video fest, because we
learned so much.
The video fest was the first one.
Yeah, the first one of the video fest.
Two years ago, that was we were like, what are we doing here?
But we got into a groove.
And now we're just we're in a groove now.
But we learned so much from the first video fest when you
really, you look at the first video fest versus what we're
doing now.
It is night and day, but it was an incredible experience.
Just in where the first podcasts were both of those.
Yes, we are.
And you only one person can say they were first.
And that's how we were the first podcasters to ever do a show
from the Dallas video fest.
We were the first podcasters to ever do a show from the Dallas
International Film Festival.
That's a cool thing.
And they love us.
And they love us.
That's a cool, cool thing.
Chad, anything.
Just echoing what you two guys have said, just seeing how far
we've come in the last five years, five years, sir, and a decade
and and seeing how quickly it's grown over the last year and a
half, two years, how it's just taken this quantum leap forward.
And I can only imagine what the road ahead of us is going to
and I'm still working on stuff right now.
It's robbed is aware of.
It's good news.
Yeah.
Andrew Clay, I just appreciate you all giving me the opportunity
to come on your show.
Oh, it's our honor, sir.
And then you have to do some of the movie screening reviews with
you guys as well.
I appreciate it.
Thank you very much.
I love coming out.
I mean, it is a complete treat.
You guys get me out of my hobbit hole really, really easily.
As much in the past five years, I'll just sink into a depression,
stay at my home and do nothing.
I have so much joy when I come here and can't stop talking about
the stuff that we talk about.
Off air on air.
It is a treat and a privilege and I am honored to be your friends.
And we are honored to be yours, man.
In 306 down and we ain't stopping.
I want to say thanks to you, Rob and Chad, this has been incredible
for me and the honor is absolutely our same thing with you guys.
And at the next dip, I'm going to try to break the bar.
We set the bar with those three arms.
Well, and next year is the diffs.
It's the 10th day, it's the 10th annual.
Oh, yeah, you know what I'm going to try to break the 10th, yeah.
But thank you guys so much.
It truly is a blessing to do this every week.
Sometimes I, you know, you have those days where you go, oh, boy.
But by the time we go off air, it's so satisfying.
And it's such a blessing to be able to do this.
You guys are awesome.
That's all I can say.
