WE HAVE THE NFL BACK! Kinda

Music
It's going to walk on the east coast on the west coast.
It is the 8th of August in the year of our Lord, 2020, for season 15, episode 5, 674 times.
You have been welcome to the Clubhouse podcast, your one-stop shop for all things, sports,
entertainment, pop culture and pro wrestling live.
We are happy that you're here, whether you're live with us on Facebook Live or on Twitch
or on YouTube or if you're checking out the video archive or you subscribe to the audio
on Spotify, Apple Music or Amazon Music.
We are so happy you're here.
And if you do multiple of those things, even better.
Welcome.
My name is Rob, I'm the executive producer of the Clubhouse podcast, and as promised last
week, I do have my Asian Film Festival of Dallas T-shirt on to night.
It's very comfortable, and it actually has all the movies on the back to for the first
time, which is kind of cool.
But it is not the solo adventure tonight.
A dime is out on excitement for the next three weeks, but my co-host is not.
We've got to fix that.
Here we go.
He's right.
There's like, oh, I wasn't that it.
He is my co-host, and if I had dustmarked with use a lot, I would play it here momentarily
he is Alex.
Hey, man.
You know, that list was impressive, but I feel like right before you start, we should
have just like the Aspen Tour moment where you just go, so you're checking it out.
One hell of a model American.
All right, we have got a lot to cover this wheel.
And you pay attention to social media.
We have a very special segment tonight.
One of my favorite things we do all year long, and it is not in the item description
if you're on the video.
The audio would will be because when I did the video description, it wasn't a thing yet.
So let's dive right in.
Don't, don't, don't flap this wheel, too.
As the title says, we have the NFL back kind of, well, at least I am not wearing gear yet.
I do not wear gear until it is officially the season.
That's part of my OCDs, things being in season.
But to clarify for those that are curious, what do you consider the start of the season?
Open the night.
Okay.
Kick off.
Because there's some people that say, bring that first game.
Others that say when it's a game, the interesting one that I've started to fall into is
the first football that counts, which interestingly enough is not the NFL.
It is college, but that is the start of football season because we are equal opportunity
and joyers.
I treat them like two different things.
That is like, I wear my gator gear on kick off of opening weekend of college football,
or my bulls gear depending on who's playing.
Then I will wear my bucks or dolphins gear starting on that Thursday night game.
So that's, but I appreciate the clarification in your absolutely correct.
And I don't judge other people for when they say the season starts.
But for me, the season starts when the games matter.
I mean, let's be honest, we live in a regular circle.
We live in the Dallas Metroplex where it's a 365 day, a year cowboy jersey stickers all over.
And we just get to laugh at them.
I don't, I don't judge those people outwardly, but we do have two games going on right now.
As we broadcast, it is about third of the way through the second quarter.
I have to get away from St. Period, because I've been saying that with hockey for so long.
Back to Carolina and New England tied at zero right now.
The giants in the second quarter down three nothing but they do have the ball.
What about, they're about a minute behind the New England game coming up tomorrow.
Do you want to do points for friends or no?
It's preseason.
Let's not.
Okay, because at that same time, I have, but I will say this never.
I never know when it comes when, but when I am because I am the degenerate.
It's always the exact same thing over and over again.
The team that has more to prove or is Baltimore in the preseason.
More rookies, more people needing to get reps bet that side.
Tomorrow night at six o'clock Eastern Atlanta is playing my dolphins.
We also have the Texans playing the Stirlers and it's 630.
This is all central time by the way tomorrow.
It's 630 Philly will play Baltimore and then Saturday morning at 11.
The Washington football team will play the JTS choke choke choke.
Chicago will play Buffalo Vegas will play Minnesota.
That is at noon and then three o'clock respectively.
Green play will play Cleveland at three 25.
Yeah, this is all central time.
You are correct.
No, I wanted to clarify just because the traditional start is 1 PM Eastern and 4 PM Eastern.
So I thought I said that.
I'm sorry.
I did not get that if you did.
And then your night game Tampa Bay will play Cincinnati at six.
Also San Francisco and versus Tennessee, the chiefs versus the Jaguars.
And then five minutes later Seattle will kick off against the charges.
And then seven o'clock central New Orleans will play Arizona Denver will play Indie on Sunday at noon.
And then Dallas has the last game of the opening weekend of preseason at 330 as they play the Los Angeles Rams.
Mm-hmm.
So don't expect much from that game because both of the teams are pretty well set across the board.
Oh, by the way real quick, we have an update.
Touch down giant to the sixth three and pending the extra point.
But the question is who, who, who did it?
Looks like Eric Gray rushed to the right for 48 yards.
Really?
That's what it's on my screen currently.
And if that's the same Eric Gray, I'm thinking of he's been in a league for a minute, too.
But he's never broken through.
And Gran Gino has made the point after it is now 7 3 with 9 12 left in the second quarter.
Do you want to talk hard knocks or no?
Let's do it.
You haven't finished it yet.
I don't know.
Oh, by all means, you lead, I will follow and react accordingly.
We will, we will stay spoiler free because there's something I really want Alex to see and
he hasn't seen it in the episode yet, but he's not a fact content.
It is the Chicago Bears.
I will like the Bears because they keep a guy in the league to either fuse.
And I can't hear his name and not hear Homer Simpson in my head and I can't tell you why.
I like the beard.
The beard works for him, especially when you see pictures of him without it.
Apparently, and they do tell his wife tells.
But when he starts it with, yeah, it's coach Fluse.
It's like, I'm sorry.
You're not allowed to tell him yourself there.
I need evidence that somebody else started calling you that first.
As the guy named Barnhill, who was called Barney or Crash, I need evidence that it came
from the world.
And like Caleb Williams going, I know who you are.
Maybe maybe maybe maybe bring that down and not your two.
This is a part of why they like him.
Now, did have you seen his carry of him?
His attempt.
Oh, and you saw when he told them the signing bonus.
That's the last one.
Ad Tyler Bayjan acting like he had died.
I get 25.5 signing bonus.
It was like good, that's probably then I'll make it my life.
Now, I will be intrigued.
I'll be interested to see how the bears do this year.
But I'm going to reserve that for a couple of weeks.
When we do our NFL preview, that'll be coming up this month.
For that though.
Alex, I need to do some math on that.
Yeah, you want that?
Please do.
I am adamantly not falling for the hard knocks bump this year, because I was
already on the Chicago Bears train last year with the part of the pieces they had
in place.
And that was a loss for me.
Well, remember what I said last year, I wasn't falling for the rope a
dope again.
Oh.
And I didn't.
And I was right.
But we'll talk about that.
We can't even.
We have to have to have to risk everything on the hard knocks bump
from last year.
Right.
Well, if we can't talk about in season, because there's four teams involved.
So we can't even.
One of them's going to win the division.
We know that.
But I'm very much looking forward.
It's almost time.
Oh, but I really enjoyed the first episode.
I will be keeping an eye on the bears this season.
It's, there are some storylines that are followed, but I love hard knocks.
I'm unapologetically love hard knocks.
And these episodes are longer than the the giants wins.
Because the giants were sitting like 40, 40, 40, 40 minutes.
That episode was like 56.
Yep.
It was 56 in change or is 56 in change.
But the other aspect you have with that is this is also, I want to say the first year.
Where it's not made for HBO specifically, but it's a Max product first.
Whereas every prior year, it's been on HBO than available by Max.
This is their new model where everything is same time.
Oh, really?
Yes.
That is new nation, because I was just waiting till Wednesday.
I got to have it.
Well, I, I will need to double check that coming this next Tuesday.
But the reason I know that is because there was a big deal about people who only
subscribe to Max and justifying it rather than having a cable bill with house of the dragon.
But that's a separate segment.
I'm still midway through season one.
Let's get into MLB talk breaking yesterday.
The Rangers have signed poppy junior.
I, I don't like that name.
I do not David or T's junior is a, but poppy junior, just 225,000.
Yeah, but did you see the part that I really dug about that?
It is with a full.
I did not just software.
It is with a full scholarship so that he goes and gets an education on board.
Yep.
Hold on.
Come on, there we go.
Well, they're breaking news from today.
I do not, so let's go to Alex, we're breaking MLB news.
Well, I would rather set this up as a conversation.
Okay, but a very brief one.
So call answer if you will.
Okay.
Who has been North America's favorite game show for the entirety of the 2024 year?
That would be the Chicago White Sox who got love him.
Who no longer have a manager.
It only took.
It only took almost two years.
And I wrote this number down, but avoided anything else because of the game.
Almost two years.
What do you think his win percentage was?
I didn't look, no, no, no, what did you say?
150.
Okay, I want you to remember the White Sox were actually competitive last year.
Yet they are so bad this year that his winning percentage is 319.
Wow.
Yeah.
Oh, we've got how close to 500 they were last year and how they're winning what 22%.
They will get there, they, they finally won or won a game yesterday.
Oh, did they after that skid went for a minute.
Yes, they did win yesterday.
And it was a talks and point of being seen.
Wait, wait, what if they were waiting to fire him after a win?
So he got to go out on a high.
And they literally have just been waiting for four weeks to let him get all on that.
What's that?
Let's let's say that with the kids are calling that going out on a high or just going on high.
No, no, no, no, if they were high, they would have been much happier because let's be honest.
They hired greedy size more as the interim manager.
So, all right, let's go through the standings in the American League East Toronto.
Blue Jays.
I love talking about this division.
They are 10 games below 515 and a half back in the division.
They are five and a half back of Tampa Bay, the race now, four back on Boston.
The Yankees and Baltimore are both now tied and they are both six games ahead of the, of the, of the, of the Red Sox.
The Yankees ain't my favorite one.
It's hitting bombs for the O's.
So, A L Central Chicago will get there Detroit currently five games below
500. They're 12 and a half back in the division.
And they are eight and a half back of the Royals.
The Royals are only a half game back on the twins.
The twins are now three and a half back on Cleveland.
The A L West, the Oakland Vegas, maybe they are 20 games below 500.
They are 12 back in the division.
They are three back on.
No.
And I got it right the first time.
I just realized something very stupid for the team before this.
What's that? Do you know what the main, okay?
So, like, are you an agreement that outside of maybe ultra metroplexes?
There is one specific newspaper for each city?
No, yes.
Okay. Do you know what the Sacramento one is?
It's the B-times, isn't it?
The Sacramento B-times. That is very, good pull.
That's, isn't that where they are going to be playing next year?
So, you have the Sacramento A is being reported on by the Sacramento B.
And people will see them.
I am so happy with us right now.
There's much button.
Where's the button? There it is.
Why is every bit of it?
Was three and a half back on the Rangers.
The Rangers now five back on Seattle.
Seattle has lost three in a row.
Houston Houston has won two in a row.
And are a half game up in the division.
In the national, we're struggling with injury right now.
So, that's a thing.
In the national league, West, the Colorado Rockies, boy, they're bad.
They've lost two, they're out of two games game.
And they're 24 and a half back in the division.
They are 16 and a half back of the Giants.
San Francisco was five back on Arizona, Arizona is now a half game back on San Diego.
Who, by the way, between San Diego and Arizona, that's a nine game win streak.
Five of them are the Padre.
The Padre is now going to have back on the Dodgers and the NL Central.
The Cincinnati Reds now 10 back in the division.
They are a half game back on the Cubs.
Now, a half game back on Don's Pirates, the Pirates have lost four in a row.
By the way, they were on a six game win streak before the lead.
Some binding to it.
They just talked about, did you see the moment between a role this Chapman and Mani Machado?
I did not.
Let's just say, low inside, fastball, Mani Machado looked at it.
Got run up.
The inning was over and just stood there staring at Chapman going,
I couldn't hit that if I wanted to.
104.7.
But they're right, Fred.
It was really funny to see them just eye contact and just go, yep.
It's a paraphrase on Griswald.
I couldn't throw that fast even if you let me drop it out of a plane.
Nothing.
Okay.
No, not because I don't like St. Louis.
It's now six and a half back on Millawoke and in the NL East.
We got us a contest, my friend.
Miami now 25 and a half back, but they're eight and a half back of the
nationals.
The nationals are now nine back of Atlanta.
The meds are now up on Atlanta by a half a game, but seven and a half back on Filly.
Atlanta's lost five in a row.
Did you see the stat on Peter Lanzo today?
I did not.
I'm looking to confirm the exact because I believe it was two hits just a moment.
Okay, he had three hits.
However, if you only count his two home runs, they went almost a thousand feet.
That's one incredible delay.
Yeah, you're in and out on me right now.
I think it's more me than you, but it might be stream yard Lord only knows.
I'm trying to pull something up right now.
Can he just a second?
So confirming did the very robotically.
Okay, so Peter Lanzo's home run footage was nine hundred and twenty five feet today.
Which means since he had three hits, he had over a thousand feet of hit today.
So over two tenths of a mile, pretty much.
All right.
Now it's time for North America's favorite game show.
What is, you all know?
What is the right differential for the Chicago white socks?
I want to say it was like two twenty five last week, but they did win a game.
So I'm going to say two thirty two.
Now before the white socks won yesterday,
they were on a twenty won game,
skid for those of you playing the home game.
The Chicago white socks are currently 28 and 89.
Quick math.
They could theoretically.
Theoretically, they could hit the century mark at this point realistically before Labor Day.
The closest team in wins to the Chicago white socks.
Right now, would you like to guess, sir?
Oh, I feel like I would literally just be grasping its straws.
I'd have to say Miami.
Close.
They're one game better.
Okay.
It's Colorado Rockies at 42 and 74.
Miami is one game better than that.
Currently, we always go memorize the records when you're reading them.
We know it's going to be triple digits.
We know this.
Colorado currently at a minus one seventy nine.
Miami currently minus one fifty one.
Okay.
The closest team in the American League to the white socks right now is Toronto at minus 89.
They are also 24 games better than the white socks.
The white socks have a two thirty nine win.
They are 40 and a half games back in the division.
They are 17 and 40 at home.
They are 11 and 49 on the road.
They have given up six hundred and eight runs this year.
They're run differential right now is a minus two forty eight.
It is August the eight people.
I've said it and I'm staying in Biden.
They're going to hit the triple century mark.
It's going to happen.
We have too many games left.
Sir, I'm going to say that they're going to hit triple.
I'm going to go out maybe a bold prediction.
They're going to be over three hundred before September.
I said they're going to be the century marked losing wise by Labor Day.
Labor Day is on the second this year.
Yeah.
What about the same?
So bad.
Let's just go to TV talk, shall we?
And as always in our newest 15th year we will start with
stuff we watched this week.
I already talked about the only thing I watched TV wise and it was hard knocks.
You?
Yep.
To be non-spoilerish.
It was actually a great season for house of the dragon and the people that are
complaining about the finale.
You haven't been paying attention.
So I definitely make sure you keep going on it, Rob, but it is
who?
Plus what of our guys, uh, Mayor may not have a big role come season two for you.
So that's going to be awesome.
I may just have to start over.
Maybe it has been a lot of time.
Oh, long.
Uh, we have another John Wick spin-off series in development.
That will take place after John Wick four with Lionsgate television and it will be called the
high table.
I am intrigued.
I am very intrigued.
If you pay attention to the lore on this with the high table and apparently it's going
to be the fallout from what happens in spoiler alert France.
They are from France.
Apple TV plus says season two of shrinking is going to kick off October 16th.
Nice.
I very much enjoyed the first season.
Uh, and it's channel we don't talk about much on this show because they don't have a lot of
headlines to talk about CNN has announced a brand new show.
But it's going to kick off September 14th.
It is a comedy panel show about the news.
It's going to be called, have I got news for you?
Hold on.
I'm waiting.
Hosted by someone who at one point followed me on Twitter, I don't know if he still
does or not, but I'm still a huge fan.
Fellow dolphin Roy Wood Jr.
Oh, okay.
So I will give you a spin because I love it.
Yeah, you you had me hesitating going like,
all right, here comes Bill Mar again.
No, it's not the man who did not take the daily show gig.
He's got this one.
I think they're doing like it's less than 10 episodes in its first season.
So I'm looking forward to it.
It's very exciting because I love Roy Wood Jr.
HBO Max.
Now I'm saying it that way because we're covering HBO and Max in this.
I know it's not called that anymore, but I'm covered because it's both in one.
Go ahead, sir.
There is rumors that it is going to go back to being HBO Max.
I like it better, actually.
Season season four of House of the Dragon will be its last one.
Season three will start shooting at the first of the year.
So and they are shuttering something that I'm it's it's bad news good news.
Go ahead, sir.
Now, before we get out of Westeros, they have announced it is known.
And I'm not jumping in front of you, am I?
No, no, you're good.
Okay, I wanted to make sure it wasn't something you had on there.
I'm taking a sip of my beverage.
I just want to make sure I wasn't curtailing the
You're good.
You're good.
Yes, we will have to wait two years for House of the Dragon.
Same as we did for Game of Thrones.
There's a reason for it.
It's how much goes into it.
But next year, we are getting a night of the seven kingdoms, which is a popular segment of
stories about Duncan the Tall and Aegon the fourth, I believe, or fifth.
It's either the Aegon the fourth or the fifth, but it's a very young
Aegon Targaryen with his protector.
And the best way I heard it put was when you were watching Game of Thrones,
if you enjoyed Brienne and Pod, Podrick being what they were.
If you enjoyed the Hound and Arya being the squabbling too, where you had the full size adult,
and the let's say sassy child, this is what you're going to get for the entirety of it.
So I am very much looking forward to it.
What I'm not looking forward to is September 30th, as Warner Brothers discovery is
shutting down boomerang.
Oh, those of you that don't know what boomerang is.
When Cartoon Network first started, they didn't have any original program.
So Cartoon Network's entire existence, because they saw, they could see the future a little bit,
and they saw what would eventually be the end of the Saturday morning cartoon run.
So Cartoon Network would show the old school stuff, the old school Flintstones, the Jetsons,
all of those things. Well, when Cartoon Network started to really do their own content,
things like adult swim, tsunami, those kind of things started to take off.
They created boomerang, and all of the classic stuff went to boomerang, and they would show
it in blocks. Well, as time went on, it was this constant cycle.
Newer stuff would get old, it'd go to boomerang, and so some of the older stuff would get bumped.
The good news is, all of the boomerang content will move over to Max.
Awesome. So I am looking forward to some wacky races.
So I'm very excited about, I'm sad that they're shuttering boomerang, but I do love that they're
moving all the content, because Max seems to be loading it up a little bit.
They've got a lot of content that's gone there in the last few months.
Hulu announcing today that season two of Tony Lies will start September 4th,
so if you're a fan of that, I am committing this Alex by the end of the month. I'm going to watch
show them. Okay. I will hold you to that, because that show is amazing. I've got the next couple
of Saturdays with a clear calendar. Oh, there you go. For the first time and for have
I'm going to say a note for you. Do not start unless you have hours available. You are
not going to want to put it down. You are going to want to keep going. You will have to force
yourself to stop. It is that good. I'm thinking I might start it Saturday morning.
That's it. And you know what I'm going to say? I know you're not that guy. I would not be
surprised if you're done by the weekend. Yeah, we'll see. Last week we talked about
punky Johnson leading SNL announced this week Molly Kerney will also be leading before the
series starts. She was their first non-binary cast member. Never. And it also was reported
today. Steve Martin will not be joining this year. So look at your say it without saying it. You guys
know. Yeah, a lot coming from Netflix and Paramount plus this week. We have another very well-known
actor joining the cast of their series of man on fire. Oh, go on. Coco to create high school.
All of this in any winter. Bobby can't have value. Nice. They're stacking the deck bro. Like
they want to watch this show. Have they announced how that show is going to go? Like if it's
post I have any along with it. Okay. Let me see if there's a if the M-Dib has ever anything like
as um as weird as it is for a niche. That is one of my favorite Denzel Washington films.
It's so I think it's one of the most underrated. I think that's the part of it. Like I
feel that much more attached to it because when people talk about it they're like oh training
day which absolutely crushed. But then again it's Denzel when doesn't crush it. You have the
equalizer series. You go all the way back to Buffalo soldier. It doesn't matter but man on fire does
not get the credit it deserves. It looks like it's kind of a retelling because it says
follows John Creep, a wounded former mercenary on a quest to get revenge for the loss of his only
companion while defending the daughter of his dead colleague from the forces that tore her family apart.
So I think it's just a retelling. Which I'm good with. Yeah. John Creep I believe is the
it's C-R-E-A-S-Y. Okay so maybe they'd change it a bit because they call it yeah we'll
say where it goes. Okay fair enough. Also announcing this week that have you we've talked about this
before but it's minute minute. Have you remember us talking about them doing a stranger
things prequel as a musical in London? I don't remember the musical nor London part but I
remember they're being talked about stranger things prequel so that's the most of it that I know.
It was called the last the first shadow and it was the backstory of the family that was addressed
in season four. That is actually going to make its way to Broadway next April. Cool. I'm in.
Take it. We're getting closer to season five. They also announced apparently at San Diego that
the toys that made us will be back for seasons four and five. And on a scale of one to a billion
how excited are you? Extremely. I love I love that and I love the movies that make us.
I've made us. Movies that make us is a podcast from Friends of ours who this week's episode is
Toy Story 2. Also make sure you're checking out this week's episode of Matt Nay Heroes as Craig
and I talk the film version of Mash and it has his panel with Loretta Switt and Jamie Far from
the television version of Mash. His panel from Retro Expose there as well. Netflix is also developing
a sequel series to a different world, which will focus on the daughter of Dwayne and Whitney.
I have heard about this one. I've mixed feelings. Yeah. I love that show. It was a good show.
One of my favorite interviews that came out of the Sinbad was on our scenario.
That's right after he left and he was like, man, why did you leave a different world in the
Sinbad that was like, somebody had to graduate that college sometime. Plus Sinbad has looked
40 since he was 20. I love that man so much. I dream too.
Rain Damage is the the album kind of hacked everything up. But the video version of
brain damage is one of my favorite things at all time. And they have announced that season two
of the diplamat. I think my wife watched this. I don't remember. Okay. But it's scheduled to hit on
Halloween. So there is that. Paramount Plus has said that Star Trek lower decks will end after season
five. Oh, well, I mean, everything ends. But at the same time, it's still sad to see that go.
And you are getting a yellow stone sequel series now. It's going to be called the Madison.
It's going to take place with a New York City family having business in the Madison River
of Central Montana. The cast will be led by one Michelle Fiper. Oh, that is not a route. I was
expecting, but I'm on board for it. And a headline. I don't know that you have seen. I would
be surprised if you haven't as it pertains to prime video. Okay. Season four of the Orville goes into
production after first of the year. Yeah. Okay. So you didn't. I did not. Wow. I got you on that one.
But yeah, they they clear production starts. Okay. You were losing their mind. I'm like, no,
no, you're not giving it up. I understand the terminology that does not change my excitement
for it because you know what, maybe this is the theme of this episode is underrated things
because the Orville is magically well done. It threads the needle perfectly. It is the what the
modern Star Trek should be. It is amazing. Now, there was a lot of talk because the Orville wound
up at one of the first things that crossed over between Hulu and Disney plus that there was talks
about them trying to get to it. And then prime video, I guess, came in here to pick it up. And that
just makes me ecstatic because more Orville is good Orville. I took me a while to do the resurgence
but they said prime video in the the thing I read. So yes, if Hulu decides the horn in.
Well, they are they were the ones that originally had the rights because of the Fox deal with Hulu.
But then it wound up with Disney plus to see how the numbers did there. Apparently it did well
enough for somebody to pick it up, but not where it was. Speaking, did you get a DM from Ricardo the
other day? If I did, I don't remember it. Apparently now, and I believe the date is September,
7. I can probably look when we get into Magic Box because I know it in September.
And the only thing I know is it will be on digital. So I'm going to have to buy it.
Okay. On September, where are you? September 16th, and I don't know where I'm buying it from,
because it just says available on digital. Or 1499 retail, we will be able to get season two of heels.
Nice. Okay. No, I did not get that message. Oh, I don't know. I mean, I'm sure I'll just buy it
from Apple or something. I don't know. But I'm going to have it. And then the item here is Netflix WTF.
And everybody go out there and buy it. So we can get the numbers up. So we can get season three.
Let's family guide this thing. Let's go. And that's a, let's see. That's, that is a Tuesday.
I do believe. Let's see here. TV on DVD and Blue Ray this week, Chuck E season three.
One piece season 13 Voyage 9. Yes, sir. Monday. Okay. Even better.
NCIS season 21. And you can get a box set of season 17 through 21. And the complete series of
Las Vegas, which I very much enjoyed. This had the Jimmy Conn in it, because in tights are.
We have one. One quick sad news, music news item. Arrow Smith has officially retired from the stage
as Steven Tyler's voice. They're not sure is ever going to fully recover. So I'm glad I saw
him twice. And both at a time, one of the best live bands I've ever seen in my life. So let's get into
a movie talk. So we can talk about stuff that's this week. Alex, I got two that I've seen this week,
but I can't talk about him yet because I haven't come out. So it's interesting because I have one
that I have seen from this year. Although the this week's a little bit gray unless we count
Friday to Thursday. But I have now gone and witnessed a quiet place day one.
What are your thoughts on that? It's an incredibly well-made movie for not doing a ton in a lot
of circumstances. But I'm also going to clarify I almost fell asleep a couple of times. It's
real slow. Plus, I don't get, no, it's in the trailers. The focus being on the cat numerous times,
it was a real weird ride for me because it was, okay, really slow, really slow, really slow.
What about the cat? Anxiety's kicking in. Let's go. I heard there is a bit of a suspension of disbelief
because you were saying no cat stays that quiet all the time. I was thinking the exact same thing
and humorous time because we literally got home from the movie just looking at our cats going
man. Dead. The only one of our cats that would survive is bailing because he doesn't know how to
me out. But yeah, there is a level of that, especially because it's a cat with a, let's say I have
very quiet version of a bell on it as well. But it was really well done. But the thing that I haven't
seen anybody say and it's been out for a while. So I'm going to say it because he's in the trailer.
He's in the cast. Diamond Hansu is in the movie and I haven't seen anybody connect the dots
because Diamond Hansu is a major part of the second movie. So it ties directly to part of it.
I thought it was demon Hansu. I thought I thought it was the D was there as well. But I heard
an interview where it was silent. Okay. So Diamond Hansu was the pronunciation that either.
A that's either that's correct or he's just too nice. So it's a quiet D you would say.
I'll let you the first time. I was going to let that go for it being a double on Tondra. No,
because D for quiet day. Not getting better. Not getting better. I watched two movies today.
Hit me. I watched Beverly Hills Cop, Axel F. Thumbs up thumbs down.
It is. It's not that. It's better than three. Low bar. But yeah.
But.
Any more thing is 63 years old.
I don't know. I probably. I looked it up. That feels shocking because the man has looked
basically the same for an eternity. It's. I had the actual antagonist spoiled for me.
But like you pick it up pretty quick. There's a couple of people that are in it that aren't in
the other ones that kind of brought me joy. And I won't spoil that either. I appreciate it.
It's good. I wouldn't say it's great. It's worse than time. Yeah. I mean, it's under two hours.
It's like an hour 57. So it wasn't. And it's pasted one of those. But it's pasted really well.
I can say that. Like it moves along nicely. It takes a couple of side roads here and there
but other than that. I also watched trigger warning today. This was the new film that
Licks with the Alba. Okay. It's her first action film in like a decade. It's not good.
It looked like a script that Steven Segal would have tried to do in the mid 90s when he was
trying to make statements about stuff. You mean like fire down below? Undeadly ground. Yeah.
Very comparably. There's a lot of plot holes in this and not a ton of action.
There's a lot of exposition in this. And I have a new gauge for this. Okay.
How quickly will this be on how did this get made? I would say if it's not by the end of the
year, I'll be shocked. Okay. Because it's just like she's always good. Love her to death.
Anthony Michael Hallsman. Yeah. It's just not well done. There's some good. So some really good
people in this. But it's just not good. I have a question for you in that scope though. Yes,
so one of the things that I've heard, I don't want to say repeatedly because that sounds like a
negative connotation. But it's a descriptor that we have used multiple times over the last
let's call it a year where there's a lot of good people in it but and fill in whatever it is after
do you think these studios such as Netflix Amazon or what is it Amazon movies? Is there studio?
I think it's Amazon studios Amazon studios but Paramount Plus any of the streaming services that
miss out on something they default to who can we get throwing a bunch of people into this. I'm
looking at you Apple TV. Into this and then doing nothing with it other than people will watch it
because Chris Evans is in it or anodear misses in it or Jessica, all was in it and it's just garbage.
Do you think that that to become part of their business model now? The thing is I can't call it garbage.
It's just not good. Okay. I'm using the garbage terminology as a catch-all.
I think these poorly made movies but they have name recognition. It will I think that's part of it.
It will finish outside of my bottom 10 but I don't think it will finish there by much.
Is there a chance it might be in your bottom 10 though? I don't think so. Okay.
But that's what I want to watch today. I got a couple of the things like I said I got on the agenda
for the next few days. We have a a release date for a complete unknown. This is the
biopic of Bob Dylan with Timothy Shallama playing him. That will come out on Christmas day.
And the third patting tin film patting tin in Peru will debut in January. I'm telling you, I'm sorry.
I love to see. No, no, but I can't keep a straight face and I have to ask. Have you gotten to
a massive talent with Nicholas Cage. Okay. Yeah. I will never hear the words patting tin with a
straight face. Just know that going in. If we're going to talk about it, I'm going to start
giggling because that certain the scenes have no business being as wonderful as they are.
But allow me to just tease the idea of Nicholas Cage and Pedro Pascal's character discussing
their top three movies of all time is just I give you to chef's kiss. It's not enough.
It's just brilliantly hilarious. The director of legally blonde Robert Luke Kettick,
Luke Kettick, L U K E T I C one moment please. There we go. He is the one that I thought you were
going to say because it didn't type to yourself after pronouncing the name. He will be directing a
movie that I am. I am intrigued by, but I don't know that it's got enough story to it. What do we
got? It's called all out of love the air supply story. I don't know what to do with this because
to my knowledge they have never been. It's two guys has been since the 70s.
I've never heard that their story would need to be told, but I'm here for it because I love
air supply and it's y'all rock. Okay, I'll let me ask as question. Please do. Do you think
based on the fact that you have never heard anything in this go? And you are as plugged into music
historically, currently ever. Can you try any people I know combined? I tried it. What is the
odd or what are the odds that this becomes their version of weird? I would love it because I loved
weird. I thought we were so fantastic. When I looked at weird I didn't have to have to rest
you Madonna from. Yeah, and he just laughed. But then I saw this today. Now you know that I'm not
big on watching and this you could call this a trailer. Okay. More of a sales ad for this.
You know how I feel about the criterion collection. You are a biggest one of the biggest supporters.
One of the things that criterion does on their YouTube channel. They have everything called the
criterion closet and they have celebrities come in and they they bring a bag and they go into this
closet and it's just full of their DVDs and blue rays. Now what are the laws for the pronoun?
When you say there are you talking about the guests, DVDs and blue rays or a criterion series.
These are criterion. This is the company that's not the criterion collection. But when you say
guest and there I want to make sure that we have it correct. People like Fred Armisen, Martin Scorsese,
have gone in there with a bag and they just let him pick whatever they want.
What they have done because this is their 40th anniversary. Okay. To celebrate their 40th anniversary
on November 19th, they have taken 40 movies that have been curated by the guests that have
visited the criterion closet and they're putting it in one box set. It's going to be 800 bucks.
And there is an ad out there that will tell you what all 40 movies are and there's going to tell
you who the celebrities are. You'll see the people that picked them. John Singleton is in there. I know
for sure. Like it's 40 movies. It didn't say if there could be multiple guests that picked the movie
or is it just one or just picked up a pick on. Yeah, absolutely. There's a couple that picked the same
film. But yeah, I was like, oh my God. A lot of it's kind of obscure. But there's also some good stuff
in there too. So it doesn't make it not good. It's just sometimes it's tougher to go that route.
So movies, movie new releases and places you get movie new releases this week. I don't like seeing
the hot, the headline of Blake Lively versus Ryan Reynolds at the box office this weekend.
It ain't going to be a contest. Her new movie begins. It ends well. Go ahead. Especially with
the fact that they are having to try and lean into Ryan Reynolds to sell the movie.
Adapted from the Colleen Hoover novel, Lily Overcomes a... I'm on a delay. Big time.
Okay. Adapted from the Colleen Hoover novel, Lily Overcomes a traumatic childhood to embark on a new
life. A chance. It's meeting with a neurosurgeon. Sparks a connection. But Lily begins to see
sides of him that remind her of her parents' relationship. Justin Baldini is in this Jenny Slate
firmly of Saturday Night Live. Hassan Minhaj is in this. Man, I hope I didn't screw that up.
Let's see. Let's see if there's any other names I see that I recognize. I do a Robin Lively
in this. I haven't said her name in a very, very long time. Also this week, we have borderlands
adapted from the video game. I'll check it out. I've got no expectations to it.
Well, what are your thoughts? Hassan, has borderlands is one of... I'm trying to be fair
without trying to sound hyperbolic. It is a top three top five game series for me all time.
And honestly, it may be too the more I think about it. I have no good expectations. And I have
said it repeatedly. The moment they announced the first actor for it, I just went, oh wait,
we don't say those words on this. But the moment they said Kevin Hart as Roland, I meant,
oh, this is going to be great. Bad. And the last check, because we have friend of the show,
Tracy Mangum, watching it today. For good things Utah. It was at 0% on Rotten Tomatoes. And I don't
know that I've ever, you know, movie get this close to release with 0% and he actually just
messaged me. Okay. I had sent him a message earlier when I saw he was seeing it saying,
why am I hopeful that this is because it is so for the gamers that it misses a majority of people.
I saw a gamer review say cosplayers with a $20 budget make better looking movies than this.
Oh dear. Yikes. Which makes me sad because I like the people in it.
And there's Kevin Hart. We also have a movie called Cooku this week. A 17 year old girl
was forced to move with her family to a resort where things are not what they see. Martin Soksis is so
Soksis is in this. Oh, alongside a free. There's also a movie. I don't know that we have that he
always always always plays a European villain. But he's a ballet dancer or a ballad deer.
Nice. Because we also have a movie of Twilight. Twilight of the Warriors walled in
follows troubled youth, Chen Lott Quinn. It's the accidentally enters the walled city
discovers in the order amidst its chaos and learns important life lessons along the way. This is
an Asian film. Okay. We also have war game. If you will, this is Steve Bullick and Wesley Clark.
US officials simulate a coup post the disputed election in insert.
Since take capitals questioning the president's military control,
countering disinformation as vital highlighting bipartisan defensive democracy. There's a lot of words right there.
Yeah, there's a lot going on. That sounds like one of those one is where you wind up with multiple
writers all with different ideas and you don't know which is which ones to cut. We also have the last
front this week amidst world war once chaos, a grieving father turns hero leading villagers to
safety while evading a relentless enemy driven by vengeance. This also appears to be a foreign film.
There's nobody I recognize. We also have. Oh, is he in that? He's the star.
Okay. We have dance first with Aiden Gillen and Gabriel Byrne. Many parts of the literary
Samuel Beckett's life. We also have. And I don't know that we needed this as a narrative film because
I think we all know the story. Girl, you know it's true. The biopic of Millie Vanilli.
I maintain that's a good album. Even though they didn't sing it. It's a good album.
Just saying. It's a one quick tech to go ahead.
Are we back on the rails? Go ahead. I'm sorry.
Okay. I always find Millie Vanilli to be an interesting debate topic.
Now, allow me to pivot this to something I have a bit more experience with.
Okay. Carlos Mincea is a garbage comic who steals people's bits.
But he is an amazing entertainer. Is there something if it's open and honest?
But you get great music with a show that maybe is not performed by those people, but it's not
pretending to. Do you take issue? To me, if that had been out me open from the front,
but that was also in a time where you couldn't. Yeah. It's a different thing.
You mean when you had to be good at music to actually get somewhere?
And like I said, I stand by it. It's in my phone. I love that album. It's a great album.
They just wasn't them singing it. You know? Movies on DVD and Blu-ray. This coming Tuesday,
Furiosa, a Mad Max saga will be available. Also, the John Krasinski directed if.
I am wearing myself to watch it. And we've got two criteria and collections this week. One is a
two films by Kira Maratoba, briefing counters in the long farewell. And the last emperor is
getting the criteria to watch this week. I'm surprised last time we were hadn't already gone through.
They do that a lot. Sometimes they'll recycle stuff. Or you'll be like, oh, we're just out
getting this. Yeah. No, I tell you what. I tell you, even though we'll never see it released on Blu-ray,
what my actual holy grail of criterion is. I believe you've said it, but please fill me back in.
Early in the criterion collection, it was all on laser disk. That's how far because of 40 years ago.
There is a laser disk out there and you can find it, but it's only on laser disk.
And if somebody ever did a transfer to Blu-ray, I would be horribly tempted with the special features.
They did Ghostbusters the first one. Oh, wow. Yeah, we have talked about that.
One quick tech talk. We have the end of an era. After 35 years, game and former will be sending
its final issue very soon. Now, to clarify, is game and former ending or is it the hard copies
that are ending? From what I've said, they're shuttering it. What I've seen, I could be absolutely wrong.
The reason I ask that is because that speaks more to a different situation to me,
because you know who owns game and former. Yes, it would be a game stop. Yes, it does.
So that actually being based in grapevine not far from you, I would be curious to see if they're
just going to go to a strictly online or if that speaks volumes to game stop. Let's say we don't
like the stock. We are going to run long tonight, kids. Because we got to do one of my favorite
things we do every year. It's one of my favorites, too.
Earlier this week, like yesterday, it was announced the finalists for the state fair of Texas
new foods and there we go. Now, for those of you that do not know, the state fair of Texas
is famous for some of the most wheels off foods you will ever see in your life. Now, Alex,
I'm actually going to move this window that we are on for Streamyard to the side. So if you see me
look to my right, it's because that's where you are now. Well, to the nearer, but the cameras got
my presenter screen for the PowerPoint. Yeah, to spoil the, I'm going to be doing relatively the same
thing of moving my camera to the right side. Usually, I keep it where I can keep eye contacts,
but I want to be able to see this move. All right. So every year, they have a competition
and there are two divisions. Now, you will see somebody's at least one person's name in here
in both divisions. They will do the actual awards for both divisions in two weeks, but they have
announced the finalists. There are five in each category this year. So the list isn't as long as
it's been in the last few years. But I would like to do our normal yearly begging. Okay.
I want to be a judge. I want to be a judge. I want to be a judge. I want to be a judge. I want to be a
judge. I want to be a judge for the taste of Texas. We start with the savory division.
Now, you will not, I'll, I will do, as I will first reveal the dish itself. Actually,
I will, I will reveal the name of the dish. All right. And then I will show you the dish.
And then I will read you from BigTex.com. The actual description of the item are you ready.
I am ready. Starting off the savory division. We have no, no points. If you just heard by
stomach grow before we even reveal the Dominican fruitura dog from Justin Martinez.
They're doing something a little different this year. And you'll see what I mean here in a minute.
This is what it looks like.
I, I'm going to need the description on this. All right. I have that for you. This savory dish
brings in explosion. By the way, I apologize that a people on the audio version just go to
BigTex.com and you can see what I'm talking about. This savory dish brings an explosion of
flavor that starts with fruitura cheese and Dominican salami. Taking classic fair food up a notch.
This dish is then double, deep fried with their famous corn dog batter. Swit open and topped with
garlic, plantain chips. Top secret Dominican sauce and cilantro, which means Rachel's out because
she's, she's got that genetic thing. We're cilantro taste like soap. She's on. They're the Dominican
Fritura dog will bring you the best of salty and sweet with an explosion of Dominican flavor.
Quote from Justin Martinez. Hopefully, we're opening another avenue for people at the
state fair to try something they don't normally try. That's what the state fair is all about.
What they're doing up and quote, what they're doing new this year. You can see in the picture.
They are telling they're also advertising how this pairs well with carbox hopped
Delo juicy IPA because they are an official sponsor of the state fair. I'm in on the food.
I don't like IPAs. Well, we'll just we'll talk about it. People can, you know, I don't drink
anyway, so it does bother me. So you're in on that we're giving feedback. I'm in on the food.
Yeah, because we're going to have a beer run. Now, I will also say there are certain
items that we will come across with the state fair because it is so insane where it's,
I don't know that I'm going to love this. But it checks boxes and I want to try it.
I feel like this would be something that you and I could split. Yeah. Well, spoiler alert,
one of the biggest Achilles heels. You want to get anything from me. Show up with some fried
plantains. No, it and you think you want. And these are, what did I say they were? Garlic.
Plant and chips. I am intrigued. Yes. And if we did split it and I liked it that much,
I might get a full one from myself. You don't know. See, that's the other hard part, which is why
it's good to do this research ahead of time because if you're trying to do it at the state fair,
you never know when you're going to be full. And we do it for the kids. Up next,
are you ready for the drowning tequitos? From Tony and Perry Rednar, there had better be art
of like this being a band made out of tequitos, California raisins style. Here's what it looks like.
Yeah, don't need anything else. I'm already in. Sort in a cup. These fresh hand rolled
corn tortillas are stuffed with tender shredded chicken and then deep fried to perfection.
To further encapsulate the savory flavor, the tequitos are then air quotes drowned with a
tangy cream sauce, jalapeno, guacamole salsa, shredded lettuce, avocado, tomatillo, pieco,
and co-heat that cheese, which also pairs well with carbox hoppidio juicy IPA.
Oh, see, anything with co-tea is awesome. I don't, that is a pre-requisite for awesome, or it is a
guaranteed in the door for awesome. I'm all over this. This is amazing. Now bonus points also for
the carrying version because of the cup. One of the things they don't tell you, tables aren't
everywhere at the state fair. You are correcting. There are areas that have tables, but when you
can put it in a cup, make it easy to enjoy on the go bonus points. I'm in greatness on greatness.
I'm intrigued by the combination of tomatico and pieco. Tomatillo or tomatillo and pieco.
Yeah, so I'm sad. I'm not a big tomatillo guy, but I am intrigued by the combination of that with the
pieco. Interestingly enough, I actually prefer tomatillo to pieco, but I also am intrigued by the
combo. All right. Number three.
Dave Gano hippie chips. From Rose and Tom Day Shen, these are hippie chips.
Are you ready? Bring it. These far out potato chip nachos promise to deliver every flavor profile
with your choice of either zesty homemade ranch or blue cheese dressing. Topped with bacon bits,
fresh green onions and a tangy drizzle of suracha. You can be extra funky and add blue cheese
crumbles if you're so inclined. Pairs well with carbox hopped deal, hazy IPA.
Yep. I don't even think I'd be isolated in my own house on that one.
I bet it is. And yes, I will be extra funky because give me all of the blue cheese. Yes.
All right. Up next.
Up next. This was the first one I saw and I just went. Oh.
And for anybody playing the home game, yes, they'd like to choose the most insane off the rails
ridiculous food to advertise. Robbs reaction tells me this might be one of those.
Bring your tombs kids. Uh-oh. Because we're talking about hot chicken pancake poppers.
I don't care what this looks like. I want it. Rock to us from Palmer and Amanda Fortune.
Here's your here's your visual. They're savory, they're sweet, and they're easy to eat.
Authentic Nashville hot chicken and Pimento cheese are rolled into a ball.
Dunked into pancake batter and fried to a golden brown. Then topped with a drizzle of
Saracja honey and a scoop of Nashville hot powdered sugar. Oh, I want it.
Pairs well. Carbax hopped deal IPA. I'm calling BS. This is paired with Pepto Bismal.
Nashville hot powdered sugar. Are you kidding me?
I want this now. No, for those that don't know. Rob doesn't do spice, but he
means good flavor. Yes. I am a spice dude. Bring it. I will try a bite of this as a precursor.
Like I couldn't do a whole order because if that spicy, I'm wasting tickets.
I plan on this with my toe in the water, just to see. This is the game plan where I get the whole
thing for myself and just split off a half of a proper to rob and just watch the fun.
I still can't get over Nashville hot powdered sugar. I don't know what that means. I just
know that I want it. I'm sweating just saying those words. It's making me hungry because it's
delightful. I got dinner waiting later, too. All right. Next up,
this was the one when I sent the link to friend of the show Jim Bragel. This was his immediate
reaction was the name of this dish. It is world's colliding and I'm here for it.
Got five words for you. Texas fried bird and bombs. Yes, let's come Nick and Vera
Burt. These bombs are take mouthwatering brisket wrapped with shredded potatoes, bacon and cheese.
Deep fry it and top it with a raspberry chipotle barbecue glaze. Drizzle to add the touch of
sweetness as pairs well with a zegan box. Big fan, by the way. I just started drooling. I am not a fan of
raspberry, so that might be a slight pass. I'm going to have to see how it accents and as known
certain ingredients. But I'm all on board for the zegan box as well. I don't like raspberry
flavor things, but if this is made with fresh raspberries, I'm at least intrigued. Yeah.
Yeah. I'm actually not a huge fan of burnt ends, but I appreciate it and it done this way.
Would probably go well. Now you do this with a pork belly? Oh, it's amazing. I'll tell you something.
You shouldn't have said that on the show. We should have been making notes for next year.
Let's get into the sweet division now. Nice. Up first of the sweet division of the finalist of the
2020 four state fair, a Texas. The nevins, nutting bar lasco. I don't care what this looks like. I want it.
Right. I know what these things do. Let's go. Tammy nevins mains and Josie maze.
Here's this bad boy. This sweet treat takes the classic nutty bar and adds toasted marshmallow
two Oreos, strawberry sauce, which means my sister's out, and freeze dried strawberry pieces.
Quote. It's on a stick. What's more fair food than that? And quote says Josie nevins maze,
co-creator of the nevins nutty bar lasco. Also pairs well with a season. Is he going back?
Yes. All of it sounds delicious. But even though it's on a stick, you still have to eat
flat because if you pick it up, the Oreos are going to go flying. I'm just using the stick to flick it
into my face. That's all I'm using. The stick is a vehicle. Hey, we grew up with little ice cream cups
where you got the wood stick on it. Let's go. We're used to that. A nutty bar. And you're doing all
of the things with it. This is like I can hear the ice cream truck in my head just looking at this.
I'm here in the ice cream truck with a remix coming down the street. Oh Lord, have mercy. All right,
next up in the sweet division. I'm sorry. You need to pause. You need to pause right now because
I'm just on there. Sean, I saw it. I think we need to coordinate a trip.
Because I think I'm out of town the open. I have to look at the dates because I know we're going out
of town like right around there. And I think at the end is one of them in Vegas. So next up,
this one, I saw it and I was like, I don't know, but this one, I'll try it, but I'm setting the bar
low. Because it is Rousseau's cotton candy bacon on a stick from ice cream. Is it
Rousseau? No, I think it's Rousseau. But what I'm saying is, I feel like you have to say it
Jeff Dunham style just because Texas on a stick. That's what we're looking at. Oh my god.
This masterful combination of sweet and savory flavors comes to life with the cotton candy
bacon on a stick. A thick 12 inch piece of bacon cooked to perfection where they cotton
candy glazed on top. The bacon is spun inside a cotton candy machine and torched to caramelize
the center and lock in the sweet flavor pairs well with a carbox love street. That's insane. I want to
I just, I don't know. So weird side tangent. Did you see the thing added in Glendale for the
Arizona Cardinals home games? I can either confirm more than I guess. There's a lot of things
that the cotton candy burrito that is estimated to weigh 12 pounds. Oh, dear god. No. Yeah.
I'm cautious on this one. This is one that it's definitely like, okay. I'm getting one. We're
all getting a bite and seeing what happens and deciding from there. This is one. I just want a montage
of reaction videos too. Hear me internet. All right. Oh, I think you're going to this next one.
Get ready. Okay. Great thing. Because this is going to take the bar and take it to the next level.
It is the strawberry pop tarts been yet full. I couldn't even do these on separate things because
they had to come in together because this is the thing. Then yet full, then yet full. I'm sorry
my phone's right. It's my PCP. This week's treat was inspired by the flavors of New Orleans
bin yays and the childhood nostalgia of pop tarts and waffles all put together on a stick because
Justin who Justin Martinez, this is his second dish. He had one in the very first one we saw
everything is better on a stick. Mister Martinez? That was my hotel opinion. The strawberry
pop tarts been yet full is a heavenly combination of a fluffy bignet and a crispy waffle
topped with homemade strawberry filling, a sweet vanilla icing drizzle, fresh whipped cream and
garnished with colorful sprinkles, pairs well also with carbox love street. I almost screamed
the effort on this. I want this. I want this to have my children. I want this now. I was just like
I saw that I was like oh dear god he's going to sell a billion. So here's the funny thing.
I don't know. Are they going to run out? I don't know if the Texas State Fair ever running out
but this might challenge that. He better be clearing out Costco and Sam's of all the ingredients.
It's all I'm saying. I'm just like waiting for him to turn into the meme where his eyes are looking
in opposite directions because of the two different foods. It's like the fletters people would
like a word. Yeah. All right. Next up. You got two more. It is a shorter list this year.
I don't know how I feel about this one. Okay. It is sweet. It is savory. It is world's colliding.
It's some of my favorite things. But I don't know about them together. The Texas sugar rush
pickles from Heather Perkins. Here's your visual. Where's the pickle? These cotton candy
flavored pickle slices are coated in three cereal varieties. Lucky charms fruit loops and
cat and crunch and then layered in cotton candy layered candy sugar crystals and powdered sugar
before being drilled with strawberry sundae syrup. If that wasn't enough,
these dressed up pickles are served with a helping of vanilla ice cream adding a perfectly cool
touch to this crazy concoction. This is a pair as well. They carbox ranch water hard shelter.
Don't know how I feel. I feel like this is one of those ones where Sean would make me buy it
because of the cereal. And I would just find out from there because I have had some really crazy
pickles as you are I am a big fan of the food. It's worked through history.
I don't know what. This is the only one of the 10 that I'm like. This one might be a little
much. No, and I'm also not a seltzer fan. So docked points there. But I do want to try the pickle.
Sean says she's so unsure. What do I say about the pickle? The pickle is great on its own.
You don't need to trick it up. But to clarify, this would be the perfect team work because I love
the pickle. She loves the cereal. We could handle it. Last but not least, we have the tropical two
step punch. The only beverage on this list. I don't know how we're going to compete with the
many people. To give fair goers a taste of paradise. This punch marinates fruits like citrus,
passion fruit, and mango overnight to create a crisp cooler that's fresh, tangy, sweet, sour,
and spicy. By the way, stay fair. I'm available for voiceover. Available in both alcoholic and
non-alcoholic options. This thirst quencher is sure to help you cool down on a hot day at the fair.
Also pairs well with Carbox Love Street. That seems ridiculous to pair it with anything.
I want that drink. No, I don't know why you don't want anything to be drinking on some.
Give it to. Oh, is that how it's alcoholic? As you get there with it? Maybe.
I want that. I want to juice. Give me the punch. Give me all the punch.
I'm here for it. Especially with the tahin room. That's good work.
So those are your finalists. They look like all winners to me this year. There's none of them that make
me go absolutely not. Let me stop sharing so we can get back to the matter at hand here.
There's you. Let me move back here. So I can looking straight ahead again.
And then I can do this.
As you settle in from that sugar-laced coma, we've put you through for the last 15 minutes.
Let's get it to the cheap podcast. Show a one-stop shop for all things professional wrestling.
Let's get right into it. We've got some official matches listed for NWA 76 coming up at the end of this
month. We have Alex Misery versus Jack Cartwheel for the number one contendership to the junior
heavyweight title. Kayla Rossi has been added to the milledrid. The king bees versus the
IT girls or it girls, but it's both capitalized. I don't know for the women's tag title.
The recently signed Daisy Kill and Talos will take on both the fixtures and the slime balls.
And the country gentlemen for the U.S. tag titles. And then we also have Baron Vaughn Storm
and Jack's Dane versus Zion and Magic Jake Dumas.
So far we have obvious winners at almost all of them except the U.S. tag titles.
So, and that'll be at the end of this month on paper view. Most of Ali allegedly done with TNA
after his world title shot against Nick Nemeth. I had to remember what they call him now.
Last week there. No, it's all Nemeth. Oh. On tonight's episode of Impact, which I will try to
watch, but ring of honors an hour 45. There are announcing details on bound for glory tonight.
Legedly it will be in Detroit. That is a big rumor. There was talk of them going overseas, but now
they're saying the rumor is next year. They may be doing down for glory in London.
But we also want to send our best out to Matt Rayhold. He was diagnosed with shingles this week.
I've had both vaccines. Not fun.
So, especially once you hit 50, you have to get that done.
Hear me, people. Summerslam was a thing. I will say you were able to watch it live. I had to
watch it the next day. I was spending some time with some wonderful friends. Happy 30 or 30
a family anniversary to Patrick and Crystal Crook got to see them in the family last Saturday night.
I thought for a match that only had seven, a card that only had seven matches that went
the better part of four hours plus a three hour pre-show. I thought the pacing on the main card was good.
It was very good. It was surprising. I really thought we would have had more drag between matches,
but we didn't. It actually played out really well. There was one point where I was like,
this could probably pick up the pace a little bit. But other than that, I thought the pacing was good.
The referee cam is not something I think they need to continue to do.
Because it's not because it came on plug from the battery pack.
But I lacked when I was like, oh, that's a really cool idea. Did you know that the original camera
like that is like 35 years old? Oh, really? They used it in NWA during a war games.
Oh, that's right. I did remember reading that somewhere. Let's just break it down real quick.
Four title changes in six defenses. My first thought as I talked to Alex on the phone about this the other
night was when was the last time we had two thirds of title changes, much less with this many,
change hands, much less on a plea, much less on a major, much less at summer slam. Because
summer slam tends to be the major that you'll have a couple of moments. And the fact that again,
this is the second one that's going to go two nights when I really thought it would be the rumble
would go before summer slam. But that's a whole other topic for another time. I really thought
summer slam would be the fourth, honestly. Actually, if you count money in the bank. Well,
the other part with summer slam is historically speaking, you're looking at Mania is your big
payoff to the year. And you usually have your new champions after Mania. And with summer slam having
been the next show for so long, it was more of the to use old school booking. It was where you
proved yourself as a champion. So you would wind up retaining after winning because you don't
lose right away. But now that we have more please, money in the bank is now considered a major.
So there's a bit more gray area for summer slam. We had the dumb turn. I really thought that
this wasn't going to last long because it would turn into live going. Remember why I did all this,
just to get under her skin. I don't need you. But we're carrying it through and shout out to
Rhea Ripley for making me believe that shoulder was legitimate. I don't know how she did what
she did to make it look like that. But how? And then doing the Mel Gibson, Lisa weapon two bit to put
it back in. Did you see the response afterwards from a buddy? I did see that his, his ex post of
ATK and I go help mommy real quick. I love that. Did you see the response immediately after?
Oh, no. I can't remember if it was Samantha Urban or Kathy Kelly. You just, one of them just
replied with no. But just like, and when she did the smack on the desk, all I could hear was
was just Mel Gibson, which, hey, there's Mike, with the psychologist says, why do you do this to
yourself and he goes, because none of them will let me. Just, you know how much I love Lisa weapon
to. I actually found the soundtrack this last week. Nice. Um, and then we had our first title
change in the evening as Braun Breaker does win that match. I really hope that shoulder was
a sell because that was not a fun spot to see, but it appears that it is. Yeah, it is a sell. It's,
it's not legit. Also, then, and new, new US champion in LA night, which more than deserved,
did you see what the reference of his gear was? I don't remember now. It was the, it was the,
it was the game six. It was the flu game for Michael Jordan, which is why it looked like the white
or the red on white Chicago bulls. And shout out to Logan Paul for that spot, the moon salt,
the wow, which he said he's Purdue again. But that was, that was really well, and I really appreciate
the fact that we finally had a match where the brass nucks didn't matter. Yes. Um,
and MGK. Uh, and now we have a new women's champion in Naya Jax after the fake fashion,
which I thought was a really great moment. I even know the story correct. I really thought
in the middle of that celebration. We would get sure of it. I, I saw somebody talk about that
they think that it's going to be whenever Tiffy does finally cash in, that's when the music will hit.
So we got time. But they're, they're letting Charlotte come back slower, making sure that they
have creative ready as well as her physical capability up to her ability, because outside of
real Ripley, I mean, your argument for best female wrestler on the planet is Charlotte and Rhea,
and I believe that's the list until Becky comes back. Respectfully, I feel like Becky is a
better character than she is a wrestler. We also have a new world heavyweight champion in Gunther.
I really, I, I wanted Damian to have a longer run. Do I see Gunther having that belt as long as he
had the intercontinental title? I do not. But it is earned. The guy is amazing. He has taken every piece
of of coaching that he's been given and he has run with it. Oh, Mike's in Minnesota. I don't know that.
Oh, he's, he's, he's close to Fargo. But you see the, that, that, that's the, that statistic on Gunther.
I did not. So he has been with the company for roughly 22, 2300 days. Okay, total with an
total with an XC UK. Okay. Yeah, that's what I meant. Yeah. He has been a champion,
aka holding a belt over 76% of the time. And you know what, he's the right guy to do that.
And I still say if you have not watched that NXT UK championship with him and Ilya Draganov
do yourself a favor. Both of them. Both of them. Well, Gunther with Tyler Bait,
Gunther with a Pete Dunn, Gunther with Ilya Draganov 1 and 2. I mean, the dude does not know how to
have a bad match. I, I, I still wish, and I, I know this is my mod, my modernity,
flying in the face of what Gunther is. I wish there was something more devastating of a
finisher that felt like, oh, he's ending it here. But I do also appreciate the fact that he has
the old school Piper sleeper hole. I mean, we all, officially have the separation of both
he and Rea from the judgment day. I worry that we're going to be doing the same angle on two
different shows. But there's that. I want to, I want you to clarify because I had to ask that
question when you said it to me first. Please, please inform the audience what you mean by that.
The day after the plea and after raw, there was a tweet that went out from Damian Priest saying that
he and either he did it or Rea Ripley, one of them did it, making the statement that they are
the judgment day. So what it appears to me is we're taking what has now become the bloodline story
line and we're doing the same thing with the judgment day. I don't know how I feel about that.
I'm going, I'm going to, I'm going to wait and see. I'll be cautiously optimistic, but I,
I don't like that we're doing the same type of thing. But, you know, it is what it is of,
we had the return of the OTC, love the shirt. We knew it was going to happen. It was just a
matter of when during the show. There has been some discussion about the new theme for Roman.
I don't rightly care. Just let's get this thing moving because the road to survivor series has
begun and two things from that match as well. Did you see that apparently they missed the spot
where there was an actionable stare down between solo and Roman before he hit the ring?
Oh, no, I did not. Apparently a cameraman was in position, but they didn't get the feed to it,
who had Roman basically almost like a bullet and club style point towards solo in the ring before
charging, which I thought was a really cool look. They put it up on social after the fact,
but it looks really cool. You go for it. We do know that Jacob fought to is good, but
it's one of those things that when you work on the Indies and you work at a high level in the
Indies the way he has. Apparently he was supposed to sell some kind of an injury after the splash,
but noticing how his leg hit the table, he pivoted to that, which is why even the people in the
back thought he got legitimately injured. He was not, it was a spot to have him injured,
taking out however you want to talk about it, to keep Jacob fought to.
Love that shirt. My future tribal chief, from encountering Roman because they're going to save
that one for later. I will say with the T's from Arne before the match of he's got help coming
with the delete chance. I was thrown off for about a minute. I was like, I know what I hadn't
thought about it. I did like the way if you really watch when Roman hits the ring. He has that
nano second where it looks like he's headed to Cody and then makes the hard left. I thought that
was really well done. It was also announced after that show that they did a legacy title for Roman
Reigns and the pre-orders are sold out. It's a good looking belt. Yeah, it is good looking belt.
But overall, I thought it was a good show. A lot of programming. Sorry.
I was exhausted by the time I went to bed on Sunday night. Now strong rumors that the
loot your brothers are coming to the company. Again, reserving judgment because I worry
used them correctly because that was an immensely talented tag team. Do not bury these
guys because they're I'm getting it. Oh, no, no, I think the whole aspect of this is giving
something new. I would not be the least bit surprised if they wind up getting paired up with
Escobar as either an upgrade on I'm not even going to say the names they give them now. Or if they
become the tag team and they let Angel and Umperto, I'm not saying what you call it.
Wind up splitting off into more of a as respectfully as I can say this because I don't
consider midcard and insult. But more of a middle card idol match kind of thing. But you know,
Penta is a huge, huge talent to me and Phoenix and they're good on their own, not just as a tag
team. I I want the usos. Gorilla is a destiny. Lucha brothers and I don't care who else you
DIY. I don't care who else you put it into. The next time you have a big ladder match for the tag
titles. Give me all of them and then leave me alone for an hour. Yes, add the street rub. Let's
fantasy book this right now. H. I mean, and I see Maddie's here. So I gotta say how to Maddie.
Of just rewinding a little bit to smack down. We are getting bloodline branded sneakers next year.
I don't know who threw. With something LA and I talked about the other day. And so we were talking
like, oh, here's breaking news. He's like, well, okay, there we go. We've actually already reported
it on this. It was already known to be coming. It is Roman Reigns bloodline Jordan's. And yeah,
I have, I am on a mailing list for this. There's my mail. I love you too. So those new lasers look pretty
cool. Yeah, they did work. Hey, Maddie, you missed it earlier when we talked about stranger things,
the, the, the musicals coming to Broadway. A couple of great signs I want to shout out.
The one that really made me giggle was Teamu bloodline. That one broke me. And there was one that said
head of the kids table. Sometimes signs are great. They just need to go away when
stops happening. And then, and new tag champs, which I'm assuming will be freebird rules.
I hope so.
Raw. Gunther, get the title, get lasers, and a lot of them. They're cheaper than pyro.
He is he the only one that's held a major title and UK on the men's side because Reyes
done it on the women's side. I'm trying to think because it depends on what you consider a major
title. Because I want to put people on their date held the NXT title at any point. I'm sorry.
Um, I guess I read it on the women's side. But what I'm saying is it really depends on your
definition of a major title. Yeah. So if you're talking about just one of the big two for men,
whether it be the world heavyweight or WWE or undisputed WWE, yes, he's the only one.
But if you open that up to what is a major title on this side of the pond being, you know,
the heritage cup now that it's here or the North American, I think there might be a gray area there.
Yeah. I'm limiting it to the top title on both shows. Yeah. No. He's the first on the men's side.
Uh, Randy will get his shot at Bassett Berlin on the 31st. Don't know how I feel about that.
Hey, long-term story booking immediately legitimizes the champion by going after the biggest
legend on the roster. I think it's perfect booking. And we do something was coming after that
their finish to the king of the ring. Uh, Odyssey Jones makes his debut long ago. We say
longest since being drafted before you show up. I don't like what they're telegraphing here.
Do not break up the new day. But who am I? Um, I still maintain. I hope it's just filler
because they hope to Biggie would be back. But he's still behind recovery or just taking the time.
I like Odyssey Jones. I think he fits well. I'm hoping the breakup angle is a red herring.
Uh, apparently American made is not the official name, which I'm glad because
are we going to have a. We've had this song. Please tell me you had the song stuck in your head every time
they said it with the Hogan song or the Oak Ridge Boys song. The Oak Ridge Boys. Yeah. My baby is American
made. No, you too. Nope. Nope. This one's a very different one. The YouTube would make us be front
page rather than flag us for the embarrassment factor of American made. American made. American made.
Yeah. That was in my head the entire time. But at least cable has a cool new insurance video.
That did play well. It did work out. It was a lot better than that weird shield thing. They
were trying to do with the Creed brothers and him. Uh, the first C W shows on the MXT will be road
shows on in Chicago and St. Louis respectively. Apparently from what I've read, the roster is very
excited. You're going to have CM Punk will be on the Chicago show. Randy will be on the St. Louis
show because they're also going head to head with a W because of the MLB playoffs. Nice. They're doing
title Tuesday on October 8th. The only thing with the NXT is the Wesley heel turn moving on.
Okay, give him credit. They finally made them at least moderately interesting. Yeah.
Uh, break Baker will be back next week. It was announced that they are that the suspension has been
lifted. Uh, the fifth anniversary show now set for October 2nd at the Petersen event center in Pittsburgh.
And that title Tuesday will be at the spoken arena in, uh, what I go, I lost it.
Oh, I have to spoke in arena. That's all I got. Yeah, of course. The other interesting thing to
that is we have talked about them doing shows that telegraph things. You can't do that with
the spoken because it's worth and details that are from the same place. Yeah, it's great. Uh, a couple
of congratulations. Yeah, a couple of congratulations. Sammy Guvara, who showed up at Ring of Honor last
week and Tame Mellow have had their two year anniversary. So shout out to those kids and Ruby Soho
and Angela Parker having a girl. Uh, read that today. Uh, the only other note I have because
there wasn't much on AEW programming this week is for tonight's Ring of Honor, which I've watched
the first 45 minutes of. If you're pre-taping, can't you edit it out when Caprice Coleman
refers to Paul White's big show? I'm just saying. Then we got two more weeks on the residency.
Yeah. So there is another headline that broke today. Go ahead. Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling.
Oh, yes, I did see this. Scott DeMor six months after leaving TNA, we'll say.
Despite his offer to purchase said company for more than it was listed as being worth.
Has announced the Maple Leaf Wrestling company with legends of today. Some of those
names that we have currently listed. And I apologize. I'll pop up shifted it. Raj Desi as part of the
team. If you don't know that name, maybe you don't know to hinder him because it is gender Mahal.
But the other names you have with it, Josh Alexander, Jiselle Shaw, Kushita, Alex Zain, the
sauce is there. Kevin Knight, Jake something, Kylie Ray, and Trevor Lee to appear.
The artist formerly known as Gender Mahal showed up at GCW last weekend. The picture he posted
were those the Bollywood boys? They are the Bollywood boys. They were reunited at GCW.
Oh, Boots got jacked. Well, they followed the same program because he has actually been back
showing up at GCW for a few weeks now. They were the surprise return to help him at the last show.
And those guys were like fit. Yes, I was like, is that the Bollywood boys? Holy cow!
Respect! Anything else you want to talk about? Well, it's a weird niche, but we also want to
give a shout out to a career well-lived with Nick Folls Super Bowl MVP. Yeah, I believe.
I do. Yeah. Having announced his retirement today. So, Kudos to Nick Folls. If everybody
dreams about winning the Super Bowl, but they want to be QB1, I suggest you look at Nick Folls
who was expected to be a QB1, took all of his lumps. Learned the game became a better person
within the game and was ready for his time. And you know what? If you're telling me, I'm going to get
10, 15 years holding a clipboard, get that kind of money, and get to play in a Super Bowl,
let alone win and be an MVP. That's a career to shoot for as well. Not everybody can be Tom Brady,
but some people can beat him. And they did. All right, over that one. Oh, my gosh, I don't
want to knock by keyboard off the desk. Over that way, that's the QR code. If you're on the video
