We re Halfway Through Summer!

Music
We need a clock on these folks, it is five o'clock on the west coast.
It is the first of August in the year of our Lord 2204 season 15 episode 4,673 times.
You have been welcome to the clubhouse podcast, your one-stop shop for all things, sports,
entertainment, pop culture, pro wrestling in that order.
Welcome.
My name is Rob.
I am the executive producer of the clubhouse podcast and I would like to apologize to anybody
that listens to the show that we aired last Saturday.
The audio was pretty bad and it is because there were some tech issues that I had not
anticipated.
I did listen to about a third of it and yeah, it is bad, but I do apologize.
I have got more control tonight than I do then, but you are probably looking at the screen
or you are maybe hearing this on the podcast and going, um, Rob, why you by yourself again,
I am not.
Now, Don is out on assignment.
He is on his way home from his trip to Atlanta, which we will hear all about next week.
But there we go, my co-host, who is that way, you know, I got to cross my arms that
way.
I am trying to get the arm crossing thing.
He is my host and a man who shirt is blending in with his surroundings, he is Alex.
Hey, man.
Well, I was looking in the closet and I was like, you know what, we are about to talk about
something very specific that is happening right now.
So I might as well grab my competition problem, sure, just because.
And shut up, everybody at Asian Film Festival Dallas had a great time on Saturday night.
I did get a shirt, but I have to wash it.
So, uh, but I got a great t-shirt from there.
Had all the movies on the back of it, it's pretty cool looking and the logos on the front.
And they had a great mural downstairs at the red carpet.
Had some really cool get it's on Mark, Mark, Walter stopped by at the end and we talked
for a few minutes.
But we are going to dive right in because man, we have got a lot of content tonight.
Because it's almost time to change the guard up.
We've got San Diego Comic Con to talk about.
We had death before dishonor this past weekend.
We got a ton of stuff, so let's dive in.
I have a series of questions for you, sir.
Oh, I may or may not have responses.
I can't make any guarantees.
Do you enjoy sports?
Always.
What would you say, if I told you, there is a service coming that will basically be an
aggregator slash one stop shop for almost everything sports.
You mean independent of the worldwide leader?
Correct.
Okay.
Well, I don't know what's coming, so you're going to have to let me know.
I gave you a name right before we went on there that you did not recognize.
Uh-huh.
Called venue sports, V-E-N-U, no E.
Oh, okay.
They are kicking off in the fall.
They are boasting.
It is sports focused.
It is a streaming service that will give you ESPN, the doos, ESPN-U, SEC Network.
ESPN-News, ABC Sports coverage, Fox Sports coverage, FS-1, FS-2, Big Ten Network, TNT Sports
coverage, TBS Sports coverage, true TV coverage, and it will come with ESPN plus, but it
will not have the NBA package because of what we talked about last week with them going
elsewhere.
How about we get paid for this service?
Well, see, I think there are two layers to this, though, because if you're asking me how
much I'd pay for it right now, the answer is zero, because I already get all of those
in other areas, but if you're telling me to go from a zero point, like I have no access.
Mm-hmm.
Now, this will be, they're saying about 160 major league baseball games a year, somewhere
in the neighborhood of about 80 NFL games, you're also going to have a off-college, the college
football playoffs, and it covers all of the madness channels as well.
That's a tough one to answer because it's like peaking and valuing through the year.
Because here's my, I feel like for me it would be about 25 to $30 a month for all that
it includes, but I'm waiting.
I don't know that I would ever be from a zero point.
That's what I'm, yeah.
For somebody like you or I, this is a non-factor, because there's no, there's no TV
net networks listed that I don't have as part of YouTube TV or Hulu or things of its
nature.
Now, sports is all you do, the costs for this a lot of that will be $42.99 a month, okay.
Seems a little pricey to me.
It is, but I think you have to also scale into the, what is an MLB.tv package cost.
How much of Sunday ticket is included?
Does it?
There was no mention of anything of those kinds of things, but when you said over 80 football
games that kind of perks my ears up going, okay, that covers a lot.
But to me, that just means it's probably going to be the Fox game of the week, because
CBS was not listed.
That is true.
ESPN was, which means you get Monday night football of, and it's not listed.
Oh, it wasn't.
Okay.
SEC network, ESPN network, big 10 network.
So you probably wouldn't get, you definitely wouldn't get Thursday night football, because
Amazon's going to go, yeah, hard pass, because you're also not going to get the NBA
staff.
And you're not going to get anything from Notre Dame.
So if I could pay 20 bucks more and have YouTube TV and pay 30 bucks more and have YouTube
TV and NFL network and red zone.
Right.
Right.
Know that this is the right business model.
What I'm curious in this scope, have you done any cursory or a deeper dive research on this?
This was just announced like three hours ago.
Okay.
I look at Fubo is filing an injunction.
Yes.
That does not surprise me.
What I was going to say is, I wonder if this is more of a frying to find happy medium for
say sports bars or things of its ilk to cover those without having to go through all
the channels they don't care about.
Fair.
I'm wondering if that's more of the target for it, rather than a person to person basis.
By a handful of roccoos and keep one, one receiver.
So you could get the the other channels that doesn't cover basically, you know, it's not
a bad thought process.
I just read that.
I'd see another injunction coming from certain leagues, too.
Yeah.
I mean, Fubo's the only one that's stepped up so far from the story I read here today.
Because that was leaning into Fubo's bread and butter though.
Yeah.
Can I get an A man?
It's happening right now.
We are one step closer.
Do the NFL season.
As of right now, I have to say something, please do.
If you were to say, the collectible sphere, what your biggest theme would be, what would
you say, from a, from a collectible standpoint, a Funko pops by far, 100%.
Now, I have seen at least three or four different renditions.
Like I'm not going to lie.
If you see me looking above the camera, I am in my theater.
I do have the Hall of Fame coverage up above the camera in here yet.
But I will.
I'm my goal is to have this up and running by by the time I get where she starts.
So Monday night football kickoff just did one that I found very interesting.
Obviously, I can't hear it because I'm focused on here.
This and I have the monitors in, but they did the entire explanation of the new kickoff
rule using Funko pop players on a digital field that I was like, I see what you did
there.
I'm going to look that up on YouTube tomorrow because I'm here for it.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, I'm sure they'll play it again during the game.
Oh, I'm sure they'll play it again during the game.
Oh, okay.
I may or may not have any answer again.
I think you will.
Is this as an opinion question?
Who was playing in the Hall of Fame game tonight?
He used it in Chicago.
Okay.
The Chicago Bears also will be the focus of Card Knox correct.
Because of that, because they are playing in the Hall of Fame game, Chicago plays an additional
preseason game as do the Texans.
So my question is, with the way we have seen Hard Knox go and we'll talk about that here
in a minute, going straight from offseason into preseason should HBO consider going forward
the team that has the preseason Hard Knox be one of the teams that's in the Hall of Fame
game because then you could go all the way through.
Now, that is a phenomenal question and I feel terrible about what I'm about to say.
Please do.
Sure opinion.
No, it's not an opinion basis.
I literally thought of this yesterday and intended to look up how many times a Hard Knox
team was part of the Hall of Fame game.
In case there was a correlation we just never noticed.
But I dig it.
I dig the idea because more often than not the Hall of Fame game cycles through every
team for various reasons and to tell you the truth, I wouldn't be surprised if this Hall
of Fame game was supposed to be the Giants and the Bears because you're aspect there
being the Giants hundredth season.
The Bears just had there's not terribly long ago.
Well, we have our first kick off.
I apologize.
Sorry.
But they're doing a great job of showing the field and breaking it down.
How are you if the new was in the rules?
A lot of people look confused right now because I know they are also experimenting with the
Hawkeye cameras for first downs in preseason.
I did see that.
So we have the set up where the kicker is on there 35, the coverage team and the receiving
team are five yards apart and it's done quick to the 26, you know what, I think this might
work.
For this when the XFL was talking about it, I think this may work.
But one of the big things that was being discussed on NFL network earlier was they didn't
give teams anything other than the rules on this kick off.
So this is going to be a very exciting time to see how each team does things a little bit
differently.
One of the notations that you have here, what we saw with the XFL for the receiving teams was
to stagger blockers.
So you'd have one guy on the 30, the other guy on the 25, about three yards apart and
giving it some layer.
Houston's receiving team literally had two back and the remaining nine literally straight
across the 30.
So we're going to see some difference in some variation.
Obviously we know that there's players that aren't likely to matter for fantasy or in
the regular season playing tonight, but men we get football.
We know we're not set up very different word.
And I know we're not getting Caleb Williams tonight, which I'm okay with, like, it's
the first game.
Let's be safe.
What does the always say, the games don't count with the injuries do?
Oh, and we still haven't gotten into that first big one that we get every year.
And I just realized Houston has new uniforms.
Oh, do they?
I'll be looking forward to seeing that.
I think they got another Navy blue.
Put a pin in that because we're going to talk about you need to here in a minute.
Go for it.
I know that the NFL has other rules for hard knocks like you can't be a team that
made the playoffs last year, blah, blah, blah, blah.
But I really think that I really think it should be one of the two teams.
Now, both teams have done it in the last because I feel like there should be at least
like a three to four year moratorium.
Once you do it, you rotate out for a few years.
Now, both teams are in that moratorium, then you can kind of go to your next tier.
But I just, I like the concept of it being one of the teams that's in the Hall of Fame
game because if or no were the reason, I like knowing the behind the scene stuff to the
Hall of Fame game because there's a lot to that aren't part of any other preseason game.
So I'll be looking forward next Tuesday to the first episode of Hard knocks with the
Chicago Bears.
And once that's done, Hard knocks in season with the AFC North, which I really hope they
roll right into because normally in season doesn't start to at least the halfway point.
So I think if we're dealing with four teams, I think this will give them a lot more content
to work with.
I also wouldn't be surprised if we wind up seeing it debut earlier because part of it being
later in the season is they only have so much access based on league rules.
If you only have one team, the usable or interesting content tends to get a little bit thinner.
And that's why I'm saying, I hope, but we don't have a break.
We just do just like we did with giants to the players.
We just go dive right in.
Did you see that'll be a few weeks, but did you see what the actor for doing in week
seven?
I did not.
I cannot find a decently sized image of this.
They are, they'll be wearing their normal white jerseys, but they're wearing black and white
helmets.
The white, it'll black on white.
You can Google it, but there's, there's no good, there's no, there's no, I tried to find
a decent sized image that I could put on the screen for everybody, but I tried to blow it
up and then it just gets real pixelated.
So the only thing that looks, it looks like it's changing as the helmets because it looks
like they're wearing.
They're still wearing the yellow pants, so it doesn't, it doesn't look like a black
and white helmet.
It looks like it is, let's say, too tone, but I think it's that dark green bay pack
or gray.
What did it end white?
It looks like it.
I mean, I like it, it's not, I was just looking at the Instagram post that is available
at Packers, where they had a close-up on Jordan love and a number of other players.
And as you get closer to it, you're like, those are just the normal uniforms.
Oh, I see you with the helmet.
Yeah.
So, so long as we don't show how much of that is, I response to Minnesota's Kings of
the North Uniforms.
As long as we don't get color rush again, I'm fine.
You know what?
I was fine with color rush.
I really was, but I didn't enjoy it.
But we'll start our coverage next week as we go into the pre-season and we're getting
ready.
We're going to have our full NFL preview coming up, of course, it is August, so it's
that time of year where we will be breaking it down.
We might have a special guest or two, join us for those shows.
We'll give you fair warning, so that it may be on an off night so we can do the normal
show.
Moving into Major League Baseball announced today, Mike Trout out for this season with
another Manuskis injury.
I like this guy.
I want him to succeed and I heard this today, because I'd seen the footage of him not
being able to complete one of his rehab games, I didn't like the headlines of Mike Trout
walks out.
He didn't walk out like, he didn't do what he was, it's not like he quit.
He was injured.
Time to clickbait.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
I really want him to succeed and I'm sorry to hear this.
He really is this generation's Mickey mantle and nobody can tell me otherwise.
Hyper-talented, big strong dude in center field who just can't stay healthy for one reason
or another.
Now mind you, the medicine has changed a bit, because Mickey mantle had to play most of
his career with no leg, no knee ligaments on one side and unfortunately Mike Trout keeps
finding ways or not finding ways, but keeps winding up with these situations where he keeps
getting hurt, which is wildly unfortunate.
And speaking of things to that nature, you know that I texted you yesterday with a new
YouTube where I would hold on falling down.
Yes.
I found a guy that's posting at the video quality's atrocious, but you would expect
it to be.
He's finding all of the Cisco and Ebert worst of each year.
And today I watched 92 and they had the babe on that list.
I was like, oh, I forgot how bad that movie lies.
Yeah, it wasn't great.
Yeah.
I'm really enjoying it because I'm seeing something like, oh, I remember that.
Oh, yeah.
A couple of them.
Yeah, let's get into MLB's standings in the American League East, the Toronto
Blue Jays are nine games below 500 and 15 back in the two, this division is still
going crazy.
They're five and a half back on the race.
The race now two and a half back on the Boston Red Sox.
They're six and a half back on the Yankees, but the Yankees have now won five in a row.
And they're only a half game back on Baltimore.
So Yankees, they're dealing with a range of injuries.
Yeah.
Yankees fans starting to get the wheels back on things a little bit now.
They're also six and four in their last 10 in the A.L. Central Chicago wide Sox put
a pin in it.
The Detroit Tigers are ahead of them.
Detroit's 14 games out of first place.
They're five games below 514 back.
Oh, it's going to get worse.
They are eight games back on Kansas City, the Royals in Minnesota are both tied, but
Minnesota has the tie breaker and they are six back of Cleveland.
Let's see, in the A.L. West, the Oakland.
We don't have a home right now.
They are 20 games below 500 and 12 back in the division.
Kind of a different dynamic there.
They are three games back of, no, hold on.
Why am I not doing the thing wrong?
I'm sorry.
I thought that was a great one.
No.
But we, but it is the Olympics.
It is.
Law is four and a half back on the Rangers.
The Rangers now four and a half back on both Seattle and Houston Houston Houston.
They are tied for first Houston has the tie breaker in the national
bleeding West.
Come on, do the thing.
My browser is being very moody today.
The N.L. West, the Colorado Rockies, they are 31 games below 500.
Ew.
And they're 24 back.
What is happening right now?
Let's see.
Oh, shout out to Crystal, given us the smiley face.
Hello, friend.
They are 14 and a half back on San Francisco, the giants now four and a half back on
Arizona, Arizona's a half game back on the Padres.
The Padres starting to close in, they're four and a half back on the Dodgers.
They've won two and a row.
The Dodgers have dropped two and a row in the N.L.
Central, the Cubs, six games below 500, 10 back in the division.
I am really enjoying watching this.
They are a game back of the reds.
The reds now three back.
Yes, if you, if you are the level of degenerate,
that certain people in the show may or may not be and you had a bet on who the first touchdown
scored of the entire NFL season would be, you didn't get it.
I'm sure, because it's teagin' a Quittariano.
Oh, a tight end.
The Pirate Tour still sticks back in the division.
They're a game back of the Cardinals, the Cardinals now five back on Miller,
and of course, in the only division of matters, the NFL East.
The Miami Marlins, God love my boys.
They are 12 games under 525 back in the division.
They are nine and a half back of the nationals.
The nationals eight and a half back of your meds.
The meds, starting to get the wheels on a little bit.
Seven three in their last 10.
Well, we can't, we're so close to sweeping series right now,
and we just biff it on the last one.
You are currently a game, two and a half, our game and a half back on Atlanta, Atlanta,
now six and a half back on Philly, Philly's dropped for straight.
So, we're both at race to the wild card.
Even though we would be leading other divisions, like the AL West, which is frustrating.
Yeah, we're, we'll start talking about wild card probably at the end of the month.
But now it's time for North America's favorite game show.
No dear.
What is the run differential?
Of course, for the Chicago White Song.
And I am purely bidding against myself.
So, I'm going to say, minus two, 12.
Last week, I believe it was right around 207 games from the century mark.
I believe in you Chicago, did I mention that they're on a 17 game skid?
And I feel like I should have said 250.
They've lost 17 in a row, bro.
That's a 243 win percentage. That's less than one and four.
Quarter.
They are 40 games back in the division.
Oh, just say that part again, just say it again, but slower.
They are almost double the games back that they have wins in the division.
They are currently one team, which number?
Oh, don't look at the run differential, dude.
That ruins the game.
No, the game's already going.
And now it's just a bit.
Look at it, then you lose the build because the build is the reaction you get.
When I give you the number, 17 of their 27 wins are at home.
They, of course, are oh and 10 in their last 10 because they've lost 17 in a row.
They are the only team currently in the American League with a triple digit run differential.
They're the only one.
We'll go to them is,
La, at minus 93.
Then you have Toronto at minus 85 and then it drops to Oakland at minus 63.
In the nationally,
you've got my, in we have minus 144 Colorado at minus 175.
From there, you drop to Washington at minus 54.
Fillies at plus 102.
The Yankees are at plus 118. Those are the only teams that are plus triple digits.
The Chicago white sock currently have a run differential of minus 2209.
But when you're on a 17 game skid,
you're kind of figure it's going to happen.
But what that tells me is they're not losing by much
because you figure they what was like six in the last week at the most.
So you're leaving my school to put a career on the game.
Yes, I just noticed something else with the same concept.
Okay, if you look every division in baseball and only combined the worst run different
also the negative run differentials, who white socks would still have a worse run differential.
It's amazing.
I can't even lose those odds on them winning the championship still on the board.
It should just not matter.
It should just say NA at this point.
No, it just it should just say really question.
Yankees have the best chance in the American League at plus 550 Baltimore at plus 650
in the nationally affiliate plus four 450 Dodgers at plus 300.
So.
All right, let's get into TV talk and write into baseball.
Yes, sir, did you did you see the video of one soda from this last heated series between the
red socks and the Yankees does not ring a bell.
So I just I like when we have positive stories.
Okay, probably the greatest rivalry with all the respect to giants and Dodgers fans in baseball
would be Boston in New York.
So there is a there's a lot of let's say heated dialogue that's exchanged between fans and
between players and all of that.
Even after getting let's say geared relentlessly through the entire series.
One soda wound up staying outside Fenway to sign and take pictures with all of the fans just to be
that kind of a guy and you know what whatever contract he's going to get he's going to earn.
And I'm going to have something else for TV when we get to that.
Okay, and shout out to the brave's getting solar back.
Very excited.
There's a key cog.
Now let's get into stuff.
Watch this week on television.
The only thing I have is I'd realized I didn't realize until yesterday I was two episodes
behind on hard knocks.
I thought I was a one behind.
But I didn't watch both of them yesterday.
I thought they did a good job.
I really like what they've done with the opening.
Yes, I love that big fan.
I hope they continue it on with the bears this coming week.
But again, like we knew how it ended.
Very true, but I will say we talked early on when it started to do the first couple of episodes
where as a giant fan that first week, I was like, yeah, that's my team.
The second week, I was like, I don't know about these guys.
As the season went on and getting through the giraffe, I felt with very good, very confident
about how that played out seeing those.
Well, seeing the people and the discussion hearing the discussions in the war room about,
yeah, this is the guy.
Yeah, this is the guy.
This is the guy and seeing that they,
in almost every round, got the people that they were targeting,
which is a good sign for a coaching staff.
And I also like the end of the last episode, how they took them all out to the,
that was really cool.
I did that and I totally on board with it.
But that's all I got from a TV standpoint,
because everything else is wrestling.
So, interestingly enough, because football obsessive,
I watched receiver, what briefly last week, I have finished.
Good season.
Okay, very good.
So, one of the things I, I didn't enjoy last year was that it felt very,
watered down is not the right word, but sterilized when they did quarterback.
Okay.
And I understand a large portion of that is just Kirk Cousins being the most basic white man
to ever play.
Okay.
But it was interesting to see, because there's a lot of big personalities in these receivers,
and it's easy to hear a narrative about one player or another,
especially in the receiver's scope.
So, it's like, oh, they're a diva.
They're different things.
They're that and they're other.
And I thought getting a lot of the peaks that,
especially the second half of the season had,
especially from like Devante Adams, while the Raiders were struggling,
or, um, hominera same brown getting overlooked for the Pro Bowl,
even though he wasn't all pro,
things of that ilk and hearing them talk to their teammates.
Hearing them be part of the team was really kind of refreshing as well to be like,
okay, that's why these guys are.
And then there was like a really, I guess,
cute moment would be the best way to put it where you're like,
okay, I can see why somebody follows Brock party.
I know he's 12 years old, but they had it where
last year George Kiddles and Sean's trying to call me while we're on air.
Right Sean, but no, it's not happening.
But you have George Kiddles grandmother made it to a game in San Francisco last year
for her hundredth birthday.
And they all, the entire stadium wound up doing it before they came out singing
happy birthday to her.
So this year for her hundred and first because she lives in Arizona,
she came out to a game where they were playing the cardinals.
And after the game, Brock party went out his way to walk up and introduce himself to
George Kiddles grandmother.
Talk about what a cool moment it was last year and how he remembered it.
As a rookie feeling like that was one of the highlights of the season.
And I was like, that dude's a leader.
That dude is a leader.
And I honestly believe what he has accomplished, we will never see again.
Oh, absolutely not.
To be Mr. irrelevant and do what he's done, that will never be on any.
I just, it's just not possible.
And that's going to be a great great autobiography when he writes it.
Eventually.
Let me think else.
No, actually that was the main focus.
I've started looking into other areas to pick up.
I still got a jump in on the star wars.
I know you were not a fan of the acolyte, but I'm even and or behind the other one I've been
looking at going back to is I've heard a lot of things about house cards.
So I may be jumping into that here when I have free time.
But for right now, it was very football focused and receiver.
All right, NBC announcing today that as we know Katy Perry will be leaving idle.
She after this season, which is probably already wrapped up.
They announced her replacement today for the first time in a steady judges seat.
We have an American idle alumni in the seat as Carrie Underwood will be replacing the Katy Perry
on American Idol.
I did get big fan.
Honestly, didn't even know she was on that show.
She won season two, but I've never watched it.
So season three, because season two was um, play again.
But she was not faulting anybody that's in that enjoys it.
I just I could never bring myself to something like that.
I was good.
Oh, like season five or six, and then I just dropped off.
So, and that was what like five years ago because it's been going for half a two thousand.
AMC has renewed Darryl Dixon for season three and the story will be moving to Spain.
Okay, there's there, do you know the parallel on that?
I do not.
So there is a the original walking dead series follows Rick Grimes and people of that group.
There is a off-food spin off whatever you want to call it that is in the walking dead based in Spain
that is Rick's brother who has isolated that lives in Barcelona or some area like that.
Okay, so I'm thinking there's going to be a crossover there because
if people are going to watch, there's plenty of meat on the bone.
Apple TV a couple of announcements, a lot of this coming out of Comic Con this past weekend.
Of, I've heard good things about the show silo.
That they have.
It looks amazing if you've seen any of the previous plus it's Rebecca Ferguson and she doesn't know how to
make something that's bad.
Season two will kick off November 15th and Steve Zahn is joining the cast.
Wildly underrated.
Wildly wildly underrated performer.
He's in my wife's favorite movie of all time.
That thing you do?
Yep.
Oh, got it.
And a boy to hold Brooke.
You can look him up.
You're joining season four of the morning show.
So there's stack in the deck from a cast and a point on that.
Boy to hold Brooke, it's interesting timing, especially when you look at what is taking
you over the world when we get to movies.
But having that exact same content because he was the one of the main villains to Logan.
Yes, I'm readjusting my cameras again because my laptop blacked out on me again.
So you can see my shirts and the things that we were joking about the phone co-pops.
We also have casting news from Disney plus for this second season of
Percy Jackson and the Olympians shout out to Edge for making it to the San Diego Comic Con.
Apparently he wasn't supposed to.
We just showed up.
Because he's out of co-pops.
I don't know what we're doing much right now.
A dimer D.I.E.M.E.R. known for the half of it under the bridge and the little brother.
He will be playing Tyson.
So Fox announced they have renewed crap populist for season four.
I didn't realize we already had three seasons of that show in the books.
And I watched the first season. I enjoyed it. I have not been back to it.
A lot of talented people.
Did you see family guys announce their Halloween special? It's going to then who the guest is on that.
Playing the pumpkin contest king?
No.
Glend power news, Glend power news, Glend power news.
Because Glend power.
As long as he doesn't have to cry, I will stand on that hill forever.
We have season two of Grimmlins. The season two will be called the Wild Batch.
Okay. And Simulu will be a series regular.
Oh, it's the anime.
We're doing. Yeah.
Simulu anime, you peek my interest.
They have canceled coronavirus after two seasons.
Okay.
I have seen the trailer for the penguin.
It will kick off September 19th at nine Easter.
I am intrigued.
Well, do you have a note about this as it pertains to a not canceled project that comes up after it?
Not sure what you're talking about.
It would be in movie talks.
Okay. So we'll hold off on that.
Oh, let's say if you have a note, if not, just throw it in me. I got you.
I might because I got a ton of stuff.
That's also fair.
Who who has canceled life and death after two seasons.
So if you're watching that show, you can just now you can binge the whole thing.
NBC and peacock announcing that they will premiere the fall guy on August 30th.
So if you want to check it out, I'm hoping they have the equipment version available because I know
they're the ones that they do.
Okay.
Legally, that's unbelievable.
I believe so.
Yeah.
But I think they said that if there's enough interest in the blue ray that that will drop later this year,
like closer to Christmas.
Maya Rudolph will be playing Kamala Harris when SNL returns for season 50.
But, and Punky Johnson is leaving the show.
I like her a lot. She's very, very funny.
And then last week talked about
Dermit Mulroney, joining the cast of Chicago Fire, Katie Strickland will be playing his
his ex who still kind of has a thing for him.
Okay.
And it's KADE E without you spell her name.
I'm not even going to bury the lead on this.
Netflix.
Netflix, I need you to hear me.
It is August 1st.
You promised me heels three days ago and it ain't there.
Where is heels?
All caps.
Because I even googled it because I went to my Netflix app and it wasn't there.
And so I googled it and everything that Google had up to May said this was happening July 29th.
It is August 1st.
Where is heels?
I need it now and I need it uploaded.
Go ahead.
I need to levels add to get this thing.
Nothing Netflix said was July 29th.
That was inferred by everybody based on other aspects.
There was no official statement that it was the 29th.
They didn't deny it.
Why would they?
I need it now.
Get on this.
You know what?
You're when you were talking about marrying the lead.
Netflix, I thought you were going in a very different direction.
There's a couple other headlines.
They're blood of Zeus, one of them.
They're going to end that after season three.
It's an anime thing, I believe.
And they also announced today that season two of squid game is going to drop the day after
Christmas season three next year and then that's it.
Oh, it was never anticipated to be longer than one season.
It was just way better than it at any business being.
Paramount plus more casting this Starfleet Academy is going to be a thing.
Because we talked about SNL just a moment ago.
SNL alum Gina Yoshire is going to be on it as an instructor.
We're also bringing back
Tignitaro Robert Piccardo Odead Fair and Mary Weisman in their previous roles.
And Holly Hunter's joining the cast.
What is happening?
That's stuck in the deck.
I'm going to have to go back and watch discovery just for this and another headline that Paramount
plus announced this weekend.
But I'm unfamiliar with Robert Piccardo.
Is that a real name?
He just thought he is a destiny.
He was the doctor on
Deep's base nine or Voyager when I think it was Voyager.
But you know, he'd put Cardo.
You get what I mean.
Yeah.
It's low hanging fruit, but I'm curious if it was chicken or egg.
I was it came much later.
It wasn't it was after
He was on Voyager.
He was the doctor, but the doctor was a hologram at the same time.
If I remember correctly.
But he was great.
Big fan.
Good.
He's also on China Beach.
And he was an inner base.
Great movie.
So on discovery, there was this is why I need to go back and watch discovery.
Because, Starfleet Academy, I don't know where it sits in the timeline.
There Michelle Yeau played a bad bad guy by the name of Emperor Philip Giorgio.
They are focusing an entire movie on her character called Star Trek Section 33
One.
That's going to be out early next year.
I have seen the trailer and I am intrigued.
I actually found a YouTube video that had all of the the trailers that they show.
Well, all the ones that they could get their hands on in 4k.
All the shows for Comic Con.
There's a couple I know they didn't, but you know, you got that going for you.
Prime video tons of news from Prime video this week.
Season two of Lord of the Rings, the Rings of Power will debut August 29th.
I am still stuck in the second episode.
Man, that thing slow.
Yeah.
Hard watch to be honest.
The boys getting another string of books.
I mean, yeah, I don't know.
I wrote them too.
The boys with another spin-off coming.
Called V, is it valid VLGHT?
You are a result.
Vot rising will have soldier boy and storm front with Jensen Ackels and Iacash.
And in case you were wondering with that aspect, I was giving immense amounts of grief
during the last plea because that during money in the bank,
because that was how they were playing it.
And Michael Cole didn't look into pronouncing what correctly whenever it was.
So that's why you may have thought it was about.
Little research.
I just, I didn't know.
Took a shot of the dark and that's why I asked you.
Of season two and it's Gen V, correct?
Yes, sir.
Season two is coming next year.
They announced that this weekend.
And I'm supposed to be later this year, but obviously with one of the main characters
in the real world having an untimely passing, they had to go back and adjust.
They have ordered two more seasons of has been hotel.
I thought this was a Netflix thing.
It's actually a prime video thing.
I've learned all about has been hotel and about the last couple of months.
This is an anime series that is not even close to safe for the kids.
Somebody at the Cariocardy at Greater Austin saying one of the songs from that show.
And it was a colorful metaphor laden, if you will.
The Donald Finn from the Wheel of Time series.
They're doing he's joining their young Sherlock series that they're doing.
I'm very excited.
I'm waiting for a trailer on that.
They're actually prime videos actually going to be the place that you'll get the new pop culture
and they have announced the host this week.
I was going to ask if you had been looking into it because I have yet to see somebody who can come close to your
title when it comes to pop culture.
It's apparently it's a team tournament.
So, but Colin Jost won't be your host.
And I like the Colin Jost because he needs something else to go with.
He's also been doing some sort of shows.
There's a Michael Chase setting him up per failure.
He's been doing some really funny stuff with the Olympics too.
Batman Cape Crusader, which dropped today, has been renewed for season two.
I have not started it yet.
I've been invincible renewed for season four.
But I'm very interested.
Did you see who's voicing the penguin in Cape Crusader?
I did not.
Mini driver.
They're throwing you a curveball.
Okay.
Love her.
So, I am intrigued by this show.
Like I said, it dropped today.
I haven't had a chance to start it yet.
So, I may start watching that tomorrow and catch some of it this weekend.
DVDs and blue rays on both fronts.
Nothing of note is coming week.
I was a little shocked.
We do have a couple of quick music headlines.
One of my favorite bands that I think more people should know about is called the Black Moons.
They are releasing a document.
You're very soon called 500 days of silence, which is not only about their journey as a band,
but how they were just starting to get on the rise and then COVID hit.
And so, not only about them, but like Sammy Haguears in this, Corey Taylor is in this.
All these other bands talking about how COVID affected them too.
I was going to say, I believe we have to refer to Corey Taylor by his full title,
but we don't say one of those words on this.
But, yeah, I'm very much, they haven't announced where A-Ren left.
I think slice of pizza ever.
Yes, the trailer dropped today.
I have, I have reposted on my face with page, but follow the Black Moons.
That's rock and roll, brother.
And I am a huge fan.
Discovered them on Bob and Tom.
And Brittany Spears memoir that the woman in me that came out a few years ago,
Universal has the rights to it, and John M. Chu is going to direct it.
Interesting.
So, he's actually directing wicked. So, let's get into movie talk and stuff.
The only thing I have is the movie, and I wouldn't saw last Friday.
Yes, and I didn't pull him over.
Six biggest opening ever.
I forgot how much money N-Game made, and it's opening.
Nothing's ever going to touch that.
But, you and I both talked after the film, like we were, as much as we hate to say this,
I'm glad we didn't go to a screening of it, because I would not know how to do
review this film without spoilers.
You might say, you might feel like you're mine.
Take box off his numbers off the banner, because we don't have that anymore.
But, I loved this movie.
I want to say right now, I mean, where does it sit for me on my list?
It's top five right now for me of the year.
I have not done my list yet, just because I have so many I need to catch up on, but it's definitely
going to be high up the list. Like the number of things, and the number of times, I openly
loudly swore and laughed at the screen, or singing to myself and doing a certain choreography
in the fake, my favorite opening to a Marvel movie, sense guardians, if not longer.
It is wonderful.
Oh, great.
I hope that if you haven't seen it and plan on it, that you have not had anything
ruined for you, but it's kind of hard at this point.
Yeah. Two avoids.
It's a pleasure to talk with you, but we're not doing that on this show, because
we want you to enjoy this film for what it is. It is wonderful. It is all of the things.
I've got to go again. I just don't know what I'm going for me. This is going to be another
one of those because I want to see it multiple times. I'm looking for different formats,
like jumping into IMAX. There is a at North Park and IMAX 3D. I want to catch
the other one would be using the XD at Cinema Arc, saying if there is the screen X in Plano,
or doing the immersion for the theater.
Did you see what your premium is if you say, I think it's in the XD at Cinema Arc. It's one of
the Cinema Arc formats. They have an adult activity book.
No, I did those. I can't, I can't even imagine.
I got that, that email hit me today. It's like I can't even imagine what's in there. Is there
anything else? I mean, we've got something coming up later that I know you watched this week.
Who's there anything else you wanted to talk about at this point? Are you referring to the review?
Well, that will do when we get to new releases. That's what I was confirming that you wanted
to save it for them. That's the only thing at this point for me from a movie standpoint.
You're a big announcement from San Diego Comic Con. We have Avengers Doom Day,
Doom's Day set for 2026 Secret Wars a year later. It is not going to be the King Dynasty,
but it will be Dr. Doom. It is Robert Downey Jr. You had an item on this that you wanted to bring
up on the show, so we go live to Rockwell, Texas. So there has been a lot of pushback regarding
Robert Downey Jr. being cast as Doom, and I understand it. I'm sure Rob does as well, but
Robert Downey Jr. has proven metal that he can do what he wants. Now, the big note I had
was the very first outing in this MCU was Iron Man. You lost your number three from that movie
in Terence Howard being recast going forward. But the MCU as a whole has had a lot of good luck with
actors being available and continuing on with the franchises.
Agreed. Do you think that the way this blew up with Jonathan Majors for its own reasons,
we won't go into? Add the executives going, okay, we need to find people we can trust to be available
and do a great job, and they just thought, well, we're not using Robert Downey Jr. anymore,
and now that he's a little bit older, maybe it fits better since it'll be
possibly a lot like his conversations with Jarvis from the Doom aspect, where he's not physically
there, but more VO and Doom happens to be CGI or something of its ilk. But do you think that the
fact that we're starting to get more recasting of people that have been in there? Because this isn't
the first. It's just people being upset because it wasn't the fantasy booking that they wanted.
Um, and yes, I agree. Killian Murphy would have been great. But I feel like there's two levels. Number
one, Marvel is like we need people we can trust after the whole Jonathan Majors debacle.
And two, why not? Here's my Robert Downey Jr. just like I won my Oscar. Let's go back to
making millions and millions of dollars. The main sticking point of him doing it was the return of
the Russo brothers. That is out there. It's a point of equal compensation for all of them. Correct.
I'm, oh, I don't know how I feel because in a world where the multiverse exists,
as long as his victor Von Doom or whatever they're going to call him, Tony Doom, Victor Von
start whatever. As long as he is not the 616, Doom, I'm okay with it. Because with the multiverse,
you can do whatever you want and say this is, you know, like like we saw like in Deadpool Wolverine.
But I, I like the fan theory that he is a variant. And then that usher's in the real Doom,
which I would hold on to a silly in Murphy or a Kiana Reeves in that vein.
But him as Doom Prime will call it, I don't know how I feel.
Because would he be amazing that man as Kevin Smith once said about Ben Affleck,
if I was going to redo jaws, he could be the shark if he wants to. I'm good with whatever
Robert Downey Jr wants to do. Been a fan for a long time. However,
I just, I feel like there's more to this. And you and I have talked about the whole Tony
Stark variant as Doom before True Doom shows up. And I was thinking to myself is because
Killian Murphy was such the name over and over again. How meta would it be or do you think they
would care to be this meta to have Killian Murphy be as you put it Doom Prime coming into
replace Robert Downey Jr. Based on them, both being Oscar winners from Oppenheimer,
where a certain Killian Murphy's character was kind of the end for Robert Downey Jr's.
Well, and I'm on board with it. I would love to see like the swarve I would see
is they pitch him. They pitch downy as Doom Prime. But in Doom's constant meddling of things,
he creates the rift that usher's in Doom Prime who then destroys him because they're
can only be one. And that's how we do it. Like yeah. I mean, I think there's more to this
that, you know, of course the internet's going to do with the internet does. But I believe there's
more to this. And we've got two years until we get there because do I believe we'll see if it
be curled? Well, I think we're going to actually see him next summer. Oh, I agree. I agree.
Right. Yeah. That's a trailer that hasn't made it out yet. I'm going to
love to say about that. Speaking of Kevin Smith, he announced that we will be getting Jay and
Silent Bob's store wars. So we've already had Jay and Silent Bob strike back. Now we have
store wars where Jay and Silent Bob will be running a dispensary and a competitor comes in.
That's what we know right now. Okay. I'm going to say both, who do you want to be the competitor?
You want to do me somebody wildly unlikable or somebody that you can't root against.
Ask me off air. Okay. Um, did you watch in a violent nature?
Uh, the new one? Not yet. There's only one. Well, there's there's another movie in the past
using that title that is unrelated. Oh, the one that came out this year. Basically it's a slasher
done from the teel of the. I'm feeling it on air. Yeah. I'm feeling those that are unfamiliar.
We are getting a sequel. That is happening. Speaking of things of its ilk.
Another trailer I have seen. And I hate to say hard past because of what it is.
Apparently we've got a new Hellboy movie and it's done. And it doesn't look good. It's called Hellboy
The Crooked Man takes place in the Appalachians in the 50s. And it is a straight up bonafide horror film
hard pass. I've seen the trailer. It stars Jack DC. Yeah. And as much as I loved Ron Pearlman,
I was also the big defender of the David Harbor because of the closer to the source material.
This while I like in that vein of being close to the source material, I
I'm going to need to see more before I can sign off on this because that it
we've had two great Hellboys and Jack Keysies just looks odd to me. Well, if you look at him in the
comics, he's not the behemoth that the other two are. So it kind of fits a little better.
But I'm not saying because it's just straight up or hard pass. Yeah, the the face looks more like
the comic. I will give it that too. The fantastic for first steps officially has a release date of
July 25th of next summer. So that's what we were referring to earlier. Colin Ferrell announced
Will return as the penguin for the Batman 2. So I'm very excited about that.
Um, the go ahead, sir. That was the thing I was wondering if you had the note on. Oh, yeah.
Oh, you do. Well, just that he's returning. That's the note. Okay. So we have the time frame for
the penguin series as well. Yeah, we take up. You need talk. Yeah. But what I'm saying is leading
directly into the second movie. Also, it's going to take place between the two. Yes. Yeah.
After the end of the first one, and we'll apparently run the entire way up to the Batman
part two. Oh, nice. No comment from Matt Reeves yet, but he has been teasing that it may be
court about. Yes, if they do it right. Oh, if you haven't caught her horizon is not going to
the sequel. It's not going to get a US release because it did not do well, but it's going to
but it's still going to be part of the NS film festival. And Netflix may pick it up. Yeah. So that's
the latest on that. We talked about SNL earlier. Jason Wrightman's film about the leading up to
end of airing of the first episode of SNL. It's called Saturday Night. It will hit theaters on October
11. The week before your birthday and on my anniversary. Nice. So I'm looking forward to that.
And in the strangest news of the week, uh, uh, men, men, well, Miranda and Elsa Davis are working
on a musical adaptation. The album will be a executive produced by NOS and produced itself by
Mike Elizondo. I am intrigued by this because it is in a musical adaptation.
King, king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king.
Warriors out and play. That was all improvised. It's going to be a thing. So that was announced
today. God, I hope it's I hope it's more true to the source material and don't become a
a very bizarre version of West Side story, Lord only does.
Movie new releases in places you get movie new releases today, the new M. Knight Shaman
Laman Laman Laman Laman Ding Dong song movie trap, which I am hearing people are saying
he's not back, but he's curving it around.
I am very much looking forward to this one.
The idea that it is a unique concept, but did we ever talk or did you know about what
it is within the movie, you know that concept from M. Knight Shaman?
The only thing I know is that basically, here's what the M. Div says, a father and his
teen daughter and a pop concert only to realize they've entered the center of a dark
and sinister event.
One of my personal favorites, Alice in Pill is in this, who I'm a big fan of.
Josh Hartnett, Haley Mills, Kid Cutty, Tim Russes in this, Jonathan Langdon, but I didn't
know there was a movie within a movie because I thought it all just takes place at
the concert.
Well, no, no, that's the gist.
I heard an interview with M. Knight Shaman along, where he was talking about how he had
never done a concert.
So what he did was set up as if he was filming a real concert and actually did, because
it was a real artist from real concert through and through for the sense of authenticity,
he actually had an entire crew working on just filming the concert, so it was as natural
as possible and then another crew that was filming the movie around that concert.
Wow.
So I will be curious to see if there is an extra on a blue ray or an entirely separate
blue ray for, and I am struggling to remember the artist name, so I do apologize for that.
We also have the adaptation of Harold in the purple crayon was Zach Levi this week.
Inside of his book, Adventurers Harold can make anything come to life simply by drawing it.
After he grows up and draws himself off the book's pages into the physical world,
Harold finds he has a lot to learn about real life.
I've seen this trailer and I'm on board.
I'm looking forward to this.
Little real, how are you as an artist?
I did not.
George, you may include it.
Isn't this?
Alfred Molina's the narrator.
Let's see.
I think that's all I recognize.
How funny is Alfred Molina's career?
It's so, I almost love it.
We also have sing sing, which I'm really fond.
I missed this screening for this the other night.
I ran out of time.
Divine G in President sing sing for a crime.
He didn't commit fines purpose by acting in a theater group alongside other incarcerated men in
this story of resilience, humanity, and a transformative power of art.
I want to say this was a diff.
I missed it there too.
I don't know if it was that diff, but the moment I saw that it was
Coleman Domingo in this, I was like, this is on my scope.
We also have a move that Alex has seen and reviewed at www.doctorclubhousepodcast.com.
That's our website.
But it is called a map.
Go ahead, sir.
Oh, no, no, no, no, there was a delay.
Oh, okay.
This is another one.
I've wrong wanted to get the screener link and it just time got away from me.
I'm very fascinated by this.
Fast vendors in it.
Yes.
It is so many different things all at once and it works better than it has any business working.
You know, I mean, you're reading the thing or do you want to just tell people to watch it?
I would tell people to watch it, but I think it's important that you read it.
Number one, I did not realize this was a rap, a real legit rap trio who has been active for over seven years.
Go for it.
When fate brings Belfast teacher J.J. into the orbit of self-confessed low-life scum,
I can't even pronounce this.
Nesay.
Nesay and Liam Ogg, the needle drops on a hip hop act like no other rapping in their native
Irish state lead a movement to save their mother tongue.
But it's it's funny because that is all I knew going into it.
And I was like, oh, this is really interesting.
And then seeing the movie and I'm just like,
this is like we have said about certain things like Deadpool and Wolverine.
We have said it is everything
meaning that it was everything we wanted it to be.
When I say this movie is everything, I mean, they literally did everything.
There's moments where it almost feels like a suspense thriller or movie, outright comedy, drug,
romp, clay, mation, random, there's parts of it that I, I don't think I even include this in the
list because it got too long that there were parts of it that almost felt like into the spider
verse.
It was so many things and so many different points and it was so much fun.
And I feel like it shouldn't be as good or as enjoyable as it is.
It is the first Irish language film to premiere at Sundance.
So and one the audience award.
So we also have the firing squad.
This is a faith-based film.
Based on the true story of three Christian prisoners who face execution in a third world
country and how their joy and Christ results in a stunning conclusion.
Cube of Gooding Jr. is in this Kevin Sorbo is in this.
Looking to see if there's anybody else.
I Eric Roberts is in this.
That's all.
Okay, yeah everybody got to work.
We also have a movie.
Oh, that's I keep typing on the wrong stupid keyboard.
Third, the first word problem.
We have crew exclamation point.
This has Peter Skier's guide Billy Magnison.
I was also in this on a seaside estate in 1918.
A mischievous cook leads it up rising against his wealthy employer.
So there's that all the episode above burgers like that.
We have experiments 77 coming out this weekend.
I'll have that for you here in just a minute because it's taking its time.
And we also have the investigators experiment said 77.
Let's see a doctor running a women's behavioral center.
Struggles to keep her patient stable when one of her colleagues has found dead in her own
mental well-being begins to deteriorate.
So there's that.
Another one I will not be seeing.
Now the other one you were saying was that the investigators are the instigators.
Is it the instigators?
The Matt Damon one.
Yeah, it's instigators.
Yeah, you are correct.
We have Matt Damon, Matt Damon, Casey Affleck.
Two robbers to must go on the run with the help of one of their therapists after a theft
doesn't go this plan.
I'm hearing mixed reviews on this.
Jack Harlow is in this again Alfred Molina.
Let's see.
Grunk is in this.
Ron V. Krollman Toby Gerald.
All right, I'll check it out.
I think it's Apple TV is doing this.
Yeah, Apple TV is streaming.
Oh, it's next week.
Nine.
For some reason, I saw a bunch of reviews today.
Maybe it's getting old.
Well, they might be doing like a one week theatrical.
Maybe it's all right.
So again, nothing of consequence on Blu-ray or DVD.
One quick tech talk note.
I found out this week when I was watching and it's never happened before.
But watching YouTube TV, the audio would just go away.
Couldn't figure it out.
So I googled it if you have this problem and it's only on YouTube TV.
So if you have this problem, go into your settings.
Then go to audio, what's called 5.1 audio, turn it off and fix it.
And it doesn't affect your other devices.
So you got that.
And now, this.
In this time of the cheap podcast, you are one stop shop for all things.
Professional wrestling.
What do we have?
A lot to cover this week.
We don't have as much wrestling stuff.
But we've got some things to talk about.
CMLL has announced that their 2024 Women's Grand Prix will be October 25th.
Have you heard of this, OX?
I've never heard of it.
I have one not.
This is a 21min elimination match that will have team Mexico versus team world.
The men's is actually this month and it will be on the 23rd.
The only person that's been announced at this point is Tessa Blanchard.
And she won it last year.
The men's team Mexico will be in the Skara, Dorada,
Bolador Jr. Svinge, Euphoria, valiente,
Tempario, Mystico, Titan, Ultimo Guerrero, and Atlantis Jr.
Team World will be Claudio Castanyoli, Kyle Fletcher,
Davy Boy Smith, Men's Suer, Yoda to Suji,
Ikaro Kuan, Flip Gordon front of the show, Robbie X, Akira all caps,
and Rocky Romero.
That's a pretty stout.
That's a pretty stout roster.
We found out NWA 76 will have the Burke Invitational.
It's a gauntlet match.
The only three people announced so far are Tiffany Neves, Misty Marks,
and Hollywood Haley J, which Hollywood Haley J, if you watch the wrestlers on Netflix,
tied to OVW.
So we haven't had any alert that she has signed to NWA, but it may be a sign.
And the winner gets a shot at the women's world title because that's why it's called the Burke Invitational.
They have also signed Daisy Kill to an exclusive contract.
Tonight, that compops up right as they win tag titles.
Tonight on TNA, we will have the wedding of Steph Delander and PCO,
and that should go without a hitch.
Please do, don't say.
And we might have to retract that.
The last wedding did go well.
Yeah, what did go well?
Pluto TV is announcing that they're going to be launching a channel for wow.
Good.
You'll be able to watch all of this iteration of wow.
They'll be the first two seasons, season four, or season three kicks off, September 14th.
I did see today on social media.
Sophia Lopez said they are filming now.
Nice.
No.
And reality wrestling are going to crown their first women's tag champs at summer
champions, but I think that happened last month.
I don't know.
Because it's usually in July.
And they showed a show two weeks ago, where they presented a check to a guy that was dated
April.
Survivor series has been announced November 30th in Vancouver.
So the second major this year in the Canadian.
Yeah, but it is spread it out.
Yeah, it will be at the Rogers Arena.
That was announced today.
So we'll let you know and take us go on sale.
Summer slam is this Saturday.
I will be watching on Sunday.
Holy cow, dude.
Three hour pre-show.
Nope.
It starts at four Eastern.
That's a lot of time in Ohio for you.
Nope.
I would say hard pass, but it's Ohio.
So flaccids the best you get.
Like three hour pre-show for Summer slam, really?
For a card, it's not real deep.
It almost makes me wonder if they're going to try and throw randomness on there.
But knowing them lately, they won't.
It'll just be redundancy, redundancy, highlights from the raw,
cold, go home, highlights from SmackDown, let's go home.
It's just not worth three hours.
There are seven matches on this card right now.
Seven.
It's fair for a major.
All of them, but one, are title matches.
So I'll give them that.
And even that, the one has the best story going.
Yeah.
But it's just not a real deep card otherwise.
There.
So, but as done likes to do, do we see anything crazy happening?
Does I feel like only thing I could see happening?
Yes, I'm talking down the card.
Is.
I think L.A. Nightwins agreed.
I think Braunbreaker wins, agreed.
I think Nia wins and Tiffany Caches in honor.
I agree with half of that.
I think Nia wins, but I think they'll stretch out the Tiffany Caches in an idea further.
The only reason I say is because it's a major.
No, and I totally understand that.
But I think they're going to want to based on how quickly they burn to the men's.
I think they're going to have a Tiffany or Stephanie.
They're going to have Tiffany hold it for a while.
I think this is too soon for Gunther to have the shot because Damian hasn't held the belt long enough.
I think the eventual is Gunther will win, but not not this weekend.
And I hate saying that because he deserves the title.
But I quick since Damian got it.
I think he does because if I remember correctly when we were doing research,
Damian or as we affectionately know him as Big Blue has held the belt the second longest of any
money in the bank cash and winner already.
They're not long for holding the belt.
And it's been a majority of the year at this point or at least it feels that way.
And I love the video he's doing with Caden Carter.
Close to make me get home. Yes.
Did you see the one with Rhea that posted yesterday?
I have a scene yesterday now. No, it was the the same kind of set of Rhea's they are looking
angry and the over is the the vocalization of like, okay, say less. I'm out.
Congratulations. Rare Daven port and Riley Osborne are married.
So a couple's are odd for a reason, but more.
And you guys were in the ring Tuesday night. So.
And if you want the way back machine case,
Kenom just threw a touchdown to Tam acres.
Is it in the brief 2014 again?
Bad blood is nearly sold out.
I think we know what the headliner for that's going to be.
Yeah. And you know, we talked about them bringing stuff back. You can bring that back.
Just leave beware of dog in the archive. Tell them that. Oh, no, no.
They're already repurposing that for our to be intercontinental champion.
To clarify on this summer's land, the only two belts I don't see moving are live Morgan and Cody.
Cody, I would say is definitely not going to move live.
There's definitely going to be something.
There's a schmaz in that somewhere.
Kurt, did you think you could tell that story with anybody turning from that group?
Yeah. Kurt Engel is going to be referring a boxing match in December 7th in the Bahamas.
Have you seen this?
Yeah, I have. Joe Judeye's versus Antonio Sabato Junior.
I will tell you, we've been talking a little bit about a YouTube channel that I like
called wrestling with regret. He, I don't know where this came from. He found it.
He found this paper view event that was done in 1996.
Called Oh, geez. Hold on. I got, I got, I got to say this right because
I can't, like, I've never heard of it.
But you have to watch this video because
it's one of the most wheels off things I have ever seen in my entire life.
And it was recorded here in Dallas at the sport of Torium.
Okay.
Your body guard's versus bandits. That's your homework assignment.
Wait, I've heard this before.
Look it up on wrestling with regret. Do you have the link readily available because you
could put it in our comment section for what we actually give them.
Me do this because you have not, I don't want to say you have not lived.
But this is one of the most wheels off things I have seen in my time on this planet.
And I'm putting it through to all of our, our socials in the chat.
It's about the, the review is 32 minutes long.
There will be people in it that you recognize.
And it is, oh man, just eat, I can't, I don't, I'm not going to, you just need to watch it.
Because it, it starts off with him talking about something WWE did that I had forgotten about.
And called the Robo.
I had forgotten they had done this.
And then he leads into what this thing is. And
bat, guano crazy. It's all either for the record.
I was just trying to look up what CWA stood for.
And I feel like it's already wheels off. And I haven't seen an image or results yet.
Just, just go watch the wrestling with a regret video. Don't watch.
But do you, remember what CWA stands for and does it play into the, I don't.
Okay, I'm going to, I'm going to go in the way back machine for a second. Okay.
Do you remember us seeing a movie, uh, I don't know if you kiss your thumb and thumbs up to somebody?
The greatness of mega force.
Do you remember the wardrobe choice for those actors that they represented a country?
Yes, on their sleeve. Yes, remember which country?
Text, aka Dallas represented the one, the one patch that we went, oh, this is not eating well.
Yeah. Uh-huh.
Is that what this, is for? That's what the C stands for. Oh dear.
So that's why I was asking. And we're specifically not saying it's not playing to it. No.
So there is no Confederate flag. God, not that I can remember. But just go watch the wrestling with
regret recap. I've never heard of this. I don't know what it was. And I don't know who found it,
because his Patreon's actually suggest stuff to him.
Where ever this was dug up, bro.
It's, and he has the official paper view feed, because when he plays clips, you see it from
request. And I, I just, oh, man, like, it's, it's, it's, just watch it. And then tell me when you did.
That's your homework assignment this week. Um, only notes I have from WWE this week.
Uh, from NXT, and make us out of more as announced, she will retire in April of next year
from the, the Japanese tour. I did love the hat and robe that they gave Cody.
I was with that. Um, I guess damage controls running face now.
See, that's my other problem is is I don't know that you can say that, but
part of that is we also can't understand two thirds of them. And two words kids,
Dexter Loomis. Wow. Like, just when you think this dude, like, we have always been fans of this
man. I, I'm not trying to steal somebody else's bit or gimmick, but he was very bouncy in the ring
on Monday. I mean, because I said to you, when I first saw the teases, I was like,
I don't think that hair is part of the mask. I, yeah, that's his hair. And we, we even fan
to the guy since he was Sam Shaw. Mm-hmm. And then he was lupus at one point.
I don't remember them. Six to two, two, 39. Yeah, that might be old numbers. That bro is
two, 60 of mulled and 40. Yeah. And he took that mask off. And I was like,
there is selling the bit. And then there's that. Like, he is all in and just taking Sam Shaw is his
domain. Samuel Robert Shaw. That's another one. Oh, no, wait, that's on Raw next week. That's not
on Summerslam, is it? What? The six-man tag. Yeah, that's on Raw. Yeah. Um, I was like,
they just keep taking this thing to another level. And I love how they're telling the story. And
I am fully here for it. I appreciate them taking their time. But I feel like it has a distinct
possibility to cascade very soon. Um, let's move on to A. W. We want to send our best to Maria
Cannellis. She will be undergoing surgery to remove a mask from her adrenal gland. That's why she's
been off TV lately. Um, I love the level of transparency. She's showing. So people can be on this journey
with her and to give awareness to what she's dealing with. And we're all bit ends of both of the
Cannelli or the Cannellis ease, whichever you prefer. The Benning. Apparently, Killswich has injured
his bicep and but he has been through it. That's right. There are the Bennets aren't they? Yes,
there. Just the the company chose not to use that name. They use the other name. Um,
Kip Sabian in a promo says he's back and better than ever. Is that chemical infringement?
I'm not gonna lie. I know what you just said. I heard Kip and then everything was robot voice.
Kip Sabian says he's back and better than ever. Is that chemical infringement?
Um, depends. They did have the same die job on the hair, though. So, and technically,
we have a first this past Saturday night. And we have for the first time ever on a battle of
belts have new champions. But it wasn't a transfer of championship. It was an awarding of
championship as Dustin and the Von Aerex are your new ring of honor six man tag champs to the
absolute surprise of no one with Kevin or president. Yes. On Dynamite. Did you notice anything
about M.J. F's entrance? Are you referring to the color scheme? Yes. Yes, I did. Do you know
what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? Yeah. I see I don't remember for sure. I was so enamored
by and they changed it to the what's written on the belt is now on the video.
The fact that the burberry was red white and blue. I laughed hysterically. And then he
during the segment destroyed the jacket. And there was nothing witty on pages lower third.
Not just as I think. But I think part of that is the fact that they're trying to be so serious
with him. It's almost uncomfortable. But he did come out of the face tunnel. I don't think that's
a thing anymore. Because if you look at it, Lance Archer, I don't know where he came out of, but
there has been awkward gray area cross over for where people are coming in and out of.
Ring of honor. Frenchy now on the board of directors. Air quotes. He, he, um, he narrated the
cold open for tonight's episode. I'm really like Paul White. I just don't know what he's doing.
He did the voice over for the results from death before dishonor, which I watched live.
And it's entirety five hours with zero hour. No, thank you. Like I texted you at nine
fifteen. And I was like, we've got three more matches to go. And I'm still in a match right now.
And they're all championship matches. That ran to 11 o'clock central. Shout out to our
boy Scott, who was in the front row. He was on camera side, but not TV side, but I saw him a couple of
times. Hey, that's where we prefer as well. That thing ran to 11 central. And it didn't need to.
Did you see the thing about, I know this is we're in wrestling talk or whatnot, but
might be breaking news. Did you see the thing about Sunday ticket and that lawsuit?
I did not. So there is crawling across the bottom right now. A federal judge has thrown out
the anti trust ruling stating that the jury did not have the bandwidth or the responsibility
to level the 4.7 billion dollar fine regarding this Sunday ticket package. Wow. Yeah.
All right. I may just be cynical, but I have a funny feeling that that judge got a very large
check donated to his cause. I will now, they're going to print it tonight. The Texas death match
with DM Monte and Laila Hirsch was insane, but it started out real rough. Laila Hirsch came out
with a chair, stopped on the ramp, waited for DM Monte. And then it was this weird choreographed
chair sword fight thing that just did not come off natural. Hirsch took a heck of a bump on
her arm, but she is okay. You have a new pure champion in Lee Moriarty, which was a great match.
And Wheeler, you to actually put the title on him afterwards. Nice because, you know,
because Blackpool is starting to run the face again. You have a new world's television
champion and red velvet. Shane Taylor was injured and Athena has now passed 600 days as women's
champion. Good, which I did not like the way that match ended at all. No, you were very open about
that, but at that same time, I feel like there's trying to figure out how to preserve talent that
doesn't necessarily need preserving while still keeping the belt on your best performer by far
in Athena. And no change in the world title nor should there have been. And it but the both of them
did a great match with brisco, of course, bleeding early. But it was, you know, you had the attempted
interference by the kingdom, but then they were fended off by the conglomeration. So you didn't
have the Kylo Riley turn, which I'm okay with, kind of what that man be his own man for a while.
Um, and on this week's episode, we meet, um, okay, I just lost his name. Who's one half of the
work courseman? Not a JD Greg, the other one. Nathan. Nathan. Oh my god, why am I drawing a blank?
Anthony Henry. Okay. Yeah. Um, we meet his second cousin in his name is beef.
And the entire promo was real. Hey, man, I can't wish you luck. Are we on a TV?
And he has beef tattooed on his stomach. He shows that. So yeah, that happened.
And now talk of, there was the question asked this week of Tony Con of rebranding ring of honor
as in as a R A E W R O H, which I just let it be. It's own thing. They don't have enough to make
it. It's own thing. That's the real problem right now. Just do like, you like W C W's do and you did
for a while. Do like six weeks worth of taping at universal and be done with it and let it be its own
thing and let A W be its own thing and then everything's happy. Just saying anything else you want to
talk about. Well, we also would be remiss if we didn't address the picture that everybody has
been discussing that has occurred in Arlington. The photo of one Shane McMahon meeting with Tony
Con. Now, if I may, please don't think this is news. This is the exact same thing that we've talked
about. What's that? That's why I didn't put it on the run sheet because I've had multiple people
asking about it with the picture being like, are you sure? And it's like, look, I have said
until I was blue in the face and I will continue to say, whenever somebody asks, no, I do not
foresee Shane McMahon being an on air talent for AEW ever. If anything, this is entirely about
the relationships in Asia that Shane McMahon has made over many years of actual business dealings
because the WWE already has a stranglehold on India as the largest or second largest depending
on which senses you believe country on the planet. They are looking to leverage Shane McMahon's
China relationships if anything to try and grab the first or second largest country depending on
which senses you look at. And with those exact same aspects, it's much easier to go from China to
Russia than it is to try and break into a country that's already completely dedicated to WWE
and expand from there. And they both said it was purely for the clicks. And Marcin
is my name says she took the picture. That's what I got. I just, well, do you want to mention
that headline from today? Oh, yeah, that she and her husband are no more. They are doing.
It's, they filed, but we've often said our own opinions that are not judgmental, but
beliefs in that same scope. And do you think her ring year is about to get a lot worse?
I don't know. AEW's got some good seamstresses. Right, but I believe he is the primary.
I'm sure he is. No, at least was up until. Yeah, it's also fair.
Anything else? Nope, I think we got the bases covered. All right. Over there.
Nope, over there. It's just a wrong thing. I'm going to figure this out. That is, if you're
