And Michael Hobby.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
What advice ten years in would you give me two
and a half years in, like real life stuff, not like,
don't try to make it fabricated, well, not like communicate, No,
like I get it, that's that's important. Yeah, communication absolutely,
But if you just say that it's so vague and
I'm not saying you guys, but it's like it's so
vague and generic. It's like communicate, but sometimes it's going

(01:11):
to be really hard and you're not gonna want to
say it, and you're gonna hate what's gonna happen from it,
and you're only hoping that what comes from it is
actually something that progress.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
I need that kind of advice. Yeah, well for.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
Me advice, I'll say, I'm married like someone who can
drag things out of people just through conversation.

Speaker 4 (01:30):
You're welcome.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
So like, I if I have something going on for
me in our marriage, like it, she's gonna get it
out of me in like a therapeutic.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
Way aund dog hostage to get it out, or does she?

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Or is it like she'll try to get it out
and then you'll do your own thing.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
But then you'll come back and that's she's right at
it again.

Speaker 5 (01:49):
I'm relentless.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
But do you give it up?

Speaker 2 (01:51):
Will you give it up for a night and then
come back the next day or do you just notched off?

Speaker 6 (01:54):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:54):
It doesn't stop, Okay, So I eventually I have to
just go you know what, yeah, and.

Speaker 5 (02:00):
Be like do we have to have a deep conversation.

Speaker 7 (02:02):
Right on my yeah?

Speaker 4 (02:04):
It you know what?

Speaker 1 (02:04):
I like, I'll just play pickleball with for a few hours.

Speaker 2 (02:07):
And we don't have to talk about anything, or we
never have to talk about it, like I know and
you know, so we both know, so let's never talk
about it exactly.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
That's why. And I'm fine, but yeah, so okay, go ahead.

Speaker 3 (02:15):
Yeah, I mean, I think ten years of marriage just
tell me, like being vulnerable is okay, like when you're
going through something like we.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
All kind of grew up in like the tough man.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
Syndrome, you know, like you do your thing and and
Caroline's kind of helped me understand through We've grown a
lot together.

Speaker 5 (02:31):
There's so many things together, you know, highs and lows,
high highs, low lows.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
But it took me and I didn't realize this until
like later on Rumberage.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
It took me a while to.

Speaker 3 (02:40):
Realize, like expressing myself to someone and trusting them was
kind of an issue, like I never it's always like
surface level in certain parts. But like with with you
now after ten years, it's like I'm fully like in
like I'll tell her anything, tell her exactly how I feel,
be vulnerable, you know, and in bad days and good

(03:01):
days and all those things. So that's communication is really
the key, Like I really, I know. That's like in
a book somewhere with us too.

Speaker 5 (03:10):
Though, if you come, if.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
You're like, dial that down though, carolinellud a minute, we'll
come Buck too.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
Minutes.

Speaker 4 (03:16):
Yeah, see, this is what happens that I started.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
Explaining that communication.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
But go find me a specific part of communicating, like
an element, because you did touch on vulnerability, and maybe
that's what you want to expand on. Because if someone says, well,
communication is the key, I'm like, I'm not listening anymore.

Speaker 3 (03:35):
But now everybody's I know, I know that's a terrible answer,
So don't look at her.

Speaker 5 (03:41):
I have a great answer.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
I know you will look at her and she will
jump back in and I know she's got the exact
answer that I'm looking for. But I'm asking you as
a dude because I have and have had trouble my
whole life.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
I do talk with being vulnerable.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
And it was never a masculinity thing because I didn't
have men in my life to be like, you got
to be manly. It was always a vulnerability thing because
I was not allowed to be weak for a couple
of reasons.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
I couldn't. I couldn't.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
Yeah, it was self protection and so as I got older,
those two seem to ven diagram cover each other a lot.
Masculinity and I don't you don't want to be manly
and I don't want to be vulnerable.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
But I didn't care about the manly thing. I just
don't want to be vulnerable.

Speaker 2 (04:22):
It just seemed like I gotta be tough, not because
it's a dude, thing, because it's a man if I'm
weak And I have struggled with what you just said
with her, yet I've been better with her, better or worse,
what have you? To find it with her than anybody
I've ever been with. But that is by far the
hardest human thing for me to do, is to be vulnerable,

(04:46):
because I feel like people won't like me, trust me,
want to be with me if I'm weak, because I've
never been weak, even though I have.

Speaker 3 (04:54):
Yeah, I completely agree with that that it's like fully
being it, trusting someone and like taking off that suit.

Speaker 6 (05:03):
You know.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
I feel like we all wear like different suits, Like
when you're around people and you're and you're doing things
that protect you from that your ego.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
I think it's ego, you know a lot of it.

Speaker 3 (05:12):
But with her, it's like learning to be vulnerable, and
then I work on myself.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
A lot too to be better in what way, like therapy.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
And then like you know, healing things that had happened
to me throughout my life, and then trying to understand,
Like you know, I'm always kind of reading and really
trying to I want to be, you know, a great husband,
and I want to be a great father and a
great friend to people. So you know, we're all trying
to figure this world out. So she supports that with me,
no matter any way I want to do it, you know,

(05:42):
because her way is different than my way, and I'm
sure you and.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
Oh yeah, we have the same thing, completely different communication
styles yeah, and attachments.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yeah, like she is.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
If we're fighting, her attachment style is she needs to
be right there, or if we're not, or if we disagree,
she needs to get it fixed right away.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
I am the opposite.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
I have always figured things out in my head by myself,
and that's what I need to do.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
But at times it is not a good.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
It has been good for my growth because I've been
forced to somewhat go.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
I have to be better at her.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
Way or we're never ever going to figure out what
works for both of us. So it's been good, but
it's been really hard because that's not me. It's good good,
that's not my attachment style at all.

Speaker 8 (06:28):
That doesn't mean it's not you. It's just not what
you've ever had the opportunity. You haven't had the opportunity
to be in a healthy relationship yet until now to
have that place to let this be you.

Speaker 2 (06:38):
But it is when I say I'm emotionally stunted. A
lot of people learn through other relationships when they're fourteen,
nineteen twenty six. Maybe you live with somebody, maybe you
get engaged, maybe you have your first marriage. You know,
there are all these different ways people and I don't
have any of that. And so here I go, at
forty years old. I'm like, all right, we're getting married. Nothing.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
It's like I just group cubes. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (07:06):
I think you're doing great.

Speaker 8 (07:07):
You're the best version of yourself I've ever seen since
you've been Thank you good.

Speaker 9 (07:24):
Cast up little food for yourself life.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
Oh it's pretty.

Speaker 9 (07:30):
But hey, it's pretty beautiful. Man for a little more exciting,
said he. You're kicking with full with Amy Brown.

Speaker 6 (07:43):
Hey it's Amy Brown from Four Things with Amy Brown.

Speaker 5 (07:46):
And here's what we talked about.

Speaker 6 (07:48):
This week on my podcast, my next question would be
do you snooze or no snooze?

Speaker 10 (07:54):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (07:54):
I snooze like crazy, which is kind of weird.

Speaker 10 (07:57):
But I have now been so bad at snoozing that
I now have to set my arm like an extra
hour early to snooze it to.

Speaker 6 (08:05):
Actually get out of bed right now. That's when you
know you have a problem.

Speaker 4 (08:08):
That you know, how many times will you snooze it?

Speaker 7 (08:10):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (08:10):
Well I don't anymore?

Speaker 4 (08:11):
Okay, but I got to kick it. I kicked it well.

Speaker 6 (08:14):
Actually, there was a challenge on the Bobby Bone Show
where Bobby wanted me to try to quit. And then
a listener called and said, I've been trying to quit
snoozing too. What if I'm Amy's accountability partner and we
do it together? And so I had a listener and
so if you have someone that is checking in, they're
trying to do it too. And then we're talking about
it on air. And I really did want to kick
the habit because, similar to you, it gotten to the

(08:35):
point where I was doing that and I'm like, this
seems counterproductive. You're literally and I learned about sleep inertia,
which is what you're doing to yourself when you press
snows like we think, oh, I'm getting my nine more
minutes or whatever, but you're not able to go back
into a full sleep cycle, so you're sort of tricking
your body and then it actually makes you more tired

(08:57):
throughout the day, and so we're not setting our selves
up for success.

Speaker 4 (09:01):
It makes sense. And also, just like.

Speaker 10 (09:03):
The last hour you're in bed, it's so miserable because
it's going off every ten minutes.

Speaker 4 (09:08):
That's just like you're kind of in a grumpy food
to start your day too.

Speaker 6 (09:12):
Yeah, so sleep inertia.

Speaker 4 (09:13):
Okay, maybe it'll be my partner to keep me accountable.

Speaker 6 (09:16):
I can be your account of Billie partner, like, okay,
make your bed. But also you don't have to have
your house to as such a Christine state where you
know your husband's like it looks like nobody lives here,
you know, which what is married life and light because
that's only been a few years too, huh.

Speaker 10 (09:29):
Yeah, we've been together for over ten years but married
for the last five years.

Speaker 4 (09:35):
But he is the best.

Speaker 10 (09:36):
He is like the best dad, Like he's so good
and he's very patient, Like sometimes I get a little stressed,
like if the crying is happening or if she's not
eating well, that like stresses me out a little bit,
and he's just calm.

Speaker 4 (09:47):
He's the opposite of me, but ying to your yang,
yeah he really is. And everybody, like all our friends,
they're like, we don't know how.

Speaker 10 (09:53):
You guys work, but you guys work really well because
he's really truly opposite.

Speaker 4 (09:58):
Which how did y'all meet?

Speaker 10 (09:59):
We met songwriting with his ex girlfriend. They were not
dating anymore, but she introduced us and then we started hanging.

Speaker 6 (10:08):
So his ex girlfriend introduced y'all to songwright or potentially.

Speaker 4 (10:12):
A songwright date.

Speaker 10 (10:13):
So I wrote with her and then she's like, I
think you and Jake would write really well together. They
were already broken up, she was with somebody else, but
they were still friends and we all wrote together, and
then he called his mom that night and was like,
I'm gonna marry this girl. I was still had a boyfriend,
I didn't live here, but we became friends and then
two years later we started dating.

Speaker 6 (10:32):
And so when did he tell you that? He called
his mom that night and said that he told me
like pretty fast that he was in love with me,
and I was like, I have a boyfriend, Like I
can't talk to you now because that this is weird
and I feel like I'm doing something wrong.

Speaker 10 (10:44):
So we kind of like stopped talking because it felt weird.
And then he would text me every Monday and be like,
I just want to remind you that, like I'm still
in love with you, and I won't text you for
the rest week, but I'm still in love with you.

Speaker 4 (10:56):
And he've did that for like a long time. Yeah,
he was very persistent. If it didn't work out, it
would have been creepy. But because it worked out, it's sweet,
I know, isn't that the thing?

Speaker 6 (11:05):
Like it's like, well, if a guy's treating you a
certain way and you don't like him, then it's sort
of stockerish or weird or whatever. But if you like them,
they're like, oh.

Speaker 4 (11:14):
My gosh, she's so sweet. He keeps showing off outside
my window. He literally did. He knows like I'm a
big gum tour.

Speaker 10 (11:22):
He would drop like packs of gum, like on my
front step or just like little things, like sweet little things,
which is a little stockery when you tell them to
not do that.

Speaker 4 (11:31):
But so then you broke up with your boyfriend.

Speaker 10 (11:34):
Actually, just like that just happened. And then at that
point Jake was like, Hey, I'm here.

Speaker 7 (11:40):
I'm here.

Speaker 6 (11:41):
I've always been here outside your windows, on your porch
with a box of gum ready and waiting. So, since
y'all are both creatives and writers, like how is it
with your latest album putting that out? And is so
much going on in your life? Is does he have
a lot of input or say or do you go
to him or is it sort of like you'll have
to create that separation because can be too much.

Speaker 4 (12:00):
We don't work together.

Speaker 10 (12:02):
But he does have a lot of opinions of like
I'll ask him, like, you know, do you like this
video or this song or do you think this song
should go on the record.

Speaker 4 (12:10):
The thing that's kind of nice is like he's not
in country music.

Speaker 10 (12:13):
He is more in like folk Americana singer songwriter world.
So our past don't really cross with business other than
just supporting.

Speaker 6 (12:21):
Well and seeing a business. You're not just in the
singer songwriter business. I first saw you on Travelers.

Speaker 4 (12:28):
I remember the first time I came in here and
you said.

Speaker 6 (12:29):
You yeah, when you were on the Bobby Bone Shaw
I was like, whoa wait, you're from the Netflix show
with that guy from Will and Grace. I was bummed
when that show didn't come back, like it was a
really I remember watching that.

Speaker 4 (12:40):
So are you a sci fi fan?

Speaker 6 (12:41):
I'm not huge into sci fi, but for whatever reason,
which I'm no longer married to him, but my husband
is at the time is the one that found it,
and I would say he's.

Speaker 4 (12:50):
Too super sci fi either.

Speaker 6 (12:52):
But you know, it was a good balance of this
is time travel but also doesn't feel too weird. Yeah,
in that or in that lane, because yeah, I would
say generally, we're not totally they.

Speaker 4 (13:02):
Did ride that line nicely.

Speaker 6 (13:03):
I think they totally did because we were into it
and like we were ready for the next season to
come out and then the next one. So anyway, that was.
That was when I was first introduced to you. I
heard on the Bobby Cast to a couple of years
ago that you auditioned for Shit's Creek.

Speaker 10 (13:17):
I did.

Speaker 4 (13:18):
I did with Dan.

Speaker 10 (13:19):
I'd like tested with him Dan Levy, And I mean
the girl who got I can't remember her name is
in real life, but sister, Yes, So you were like
I did, or like a little bit a little bit
lexit whatever her name is, I can't remember, but I
auditioned and read with him in LA comedy is like
harder for me. I'm definitely lean more in the drama lane.
But it was pretty cool and he was hilarious and

(13:40):
I was like, Oh, you were a comedian obviously.

Speaker 4 (13:43):
Oh, I'm sure.

Speaker 5 (13:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (13:44):
Him and his dad, they're like geniuses in that department.
Back to the Travelers one, though, do you believe in
time travel or different dimensions? Working on a show like that,
does it make you be like.

Speaker 5 (13:54):
I don't.

Speaker 4 (13:54):
I don't think I do.

Speaker 10 (13:56):
I like to like think about it when I'm acting
like that's a fun thing, but I don't think.

Speaker 6 (14:00):
I don't real lift you when it comes to time travel,
I don't know. Bobby likes to believe in it. We
talk about it a lot on the show, but he
feels like if it existed, he would have come back
to tell himself and I don't know exactly how it
all works. But he also thinks we're a simulation. So
this is Jake Oh really?

Speaker 10 (14:19):
Yes, Yes, he's definitely like the sci fi nerd kind
of thing.

Speaker 4 (14:23):
Do you ever get like the Dajavoo feeling?

Speaker 10 (14:25):
Yes, that I feel like is maybe oh I'm feeling
this because that's happened in another life.

Speaker 4 (14:31):
Oh, I don't know. That's what I've heard. That feeling is.

Speaker 6 (14:33):
Yeah, I don't wonder what I would have done in
a different life, or if I was somebody else.

Speaker 5 (14:37):
Was I a human or a bird?

Speaker 4 (14:40):
I don't I feel it may be fun to be
a bird?

Speaker 5 (14:42):
Ready?

Speaker 4 (14:42):
I know if you like?

Speaker 6 (14:44):
Yes, because sometimes I just want to fly far, far
away from a lot, less stress everything, fly away from everything.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
We're gonna do it live.

Speaker 7 (15:05):
Oh, the one, two, three, Sore Losers.

Speaker 11 (15:10):
What up, everybody? I am lunchbox. I know the most
about sports. I'll give you the sports facts, my sports opinions,
because I'm pretty much a sports genius, y'all.

Speaker 7 (15:19):
It's Sison. I'm from the North. I'm an alpha male.
I live on the North side of Nashville with Bayser,
my wife. We do have a farm. It's beautiful, a
lot of acreage, no animals, a lot of crops. Hopefully
soon corn pumpkins, rye. I believe maybe a little fescue
to be determined. Over to you, coach.

Speaker 11 (15:40):
And here's a clip from this week's episode of The
Sore Losers. And here's a clip from one of And
here's a clip from one of the episodes this week
on The Sore Losers. Take this clip and play it.
They're about to now ban smoking, so that in all casinos.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
Yeah, oh my god.

Speaker 7 (15:57):
That would affect you local people.

Speaker 11 (16:00):
That would be awesome. The local ordnance in Austin when
we lived there, no more smoking in the bars on
Sixth Street. That affected me. In Vegas, did you ever
really smell like smoke?

Speaker 10 (16:10):
Though?

Speaker 11 (16:11):
Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
Yes.

Speaker 11 (16:12):
You would sit at a blackjack table and some dumb
ass would come up with his cigarette and just set
it right in that as right next to you. There's
all up on you. It's just like, good god, it
was terrible.

Speaker 7 (16:24):
Or they'd bring their stories from Vegas.

Speaker 11 (16:27):
They'd bring their fat ass cigar, set it there, and
there's no ashtrays, so they'd get their beer bottle and.

Speaker 7 (16:37):
Just see when we were floating on God, man, if
somebody was smoking on a cheacher at let's say Treasure Island,
is it rested in peace?

Speaker 11 (16:46):
Oh yeah, well no, it's called t I.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
Now if we.

Speaker 7 (16:48):
Did that, dude, then if somebody's just sitting there with
two ashtrays, you just moved to another machine. And I'm
not one to sit at a blackjack like you. So
it just really I was unaffected by it, whereas back
in high school with the casina are on Indian reservations
and they are people apparently hated their lives. There was
no ventilation systems in these casinos and they would just
go smoke an entire pack after Friday at the lumber

(17:09):
mill or the coal mine. And we would go in
there in high school and you'd have to bring a
change of clothes because if you went home, your parents
be like, oh, my gosh, have you started smoking? And
then what bar were you at? And also why are
your eyes yellow? Because the smoke was that heavy in
these places.

Speaker 11 (17:24):
I used to not realize I smelled like smoke because
my parents smoked.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
No, you don't.

Speaker 12 (17:30):
No.

Speaker 11 (17:30):
When I went to college, everybody's like, right, but you
don't now right now?

Speaker 1 (17:33):
I don't. Oh now I know the difference.

Speaker 11 (17:35):
But I'm saying I feel bad, Like like the dealers,
they have no choice. They are stuck there.

Speaker 7 (17:41):
Bro, you want to talk about one of the worst jobs, imaginable, Dude,
They have to deal with drunk people, trunk high. They
never get to see people just win when when it's
majority of people.

Speaker 11 (17:53):
Are losing lose and what happens when you lose, yell
at them, get pissed off.

Speaker 7 (17:56):
Customer service type job where they really can't fight back
or they'll get fired. They can only be wrong because
the eye in the sky correct stuff they do and
they have to do it quick. If you ever watched
how they do cards, they're really skilled at what they do.

Speaker 11 (18:07):
It's amazing.

Speaker 7 (18:08):
And then a lot of black jag people. I would
hope they tip and they get some good paydays. That's
got to be annoying. Just see unless you get you know,
you got a dude and a hotty roll up to
your table in this great conversation. Those are the times
when you enjoy your job. All the other times you
hate when there's five bachelor dudes just drunk as shit
at your table.

Speaker 11 (18:27):
You are there to work like it's your job. They
are there having fun, they're on vacation. So you are
doing this the day in, day out of your job
and these people are like any is You're like, god, man,
I just I'm just doing my job and it has
to be monotonous. But I feel like if they would

(18:47):
lean into that more, that makes it more fun.

Speaker 7 (18:49):
Wait what they're drinking with you?

Speaker 2 (18:51):
No?

Speaker 11 (18:51):
No, but they're laughing and joking. The ones that are
just so serious and just I hate those tables. If
you're talking to me and having fun, so much more enjoyable,
Like are they allowed to you and clap hands or
some are at some places they are allowed to high
five you, fist bump you know what I mean? Those
are the ones you enjoy when they're like, oh, hey,
what do you think you should? I should double down?
Just cut it's your money, Okay, cool, I let I'm

(19:14):
out like your asshole.

Speaker 2 (19:15):
I'm not.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
I'm oh yeah, yeah.

Speaker 7 (19:18):
Yeah, I was telling you, dude, the guy on the
cruise man, he was hitting on the chick next to me.
I mean I was pretty much calling the shots and
removing chips, putting them back out and once the dice
I told you, I was skipping the dice like two
feet oh through it as a seven.

Speaker 1 (19:31):
It's a seven. Holy shit.

Speaker 7 (19:33):
But yeah, I would imagine I don't even know what
kind of a dealer I would be. Would I talk
to them or I go completely silent.

Speaker 11 (19:39):
I think in the beginning everybody probably you're probably quiet
in the beginning, but because you're so concentrating on trying
to get it right and make sure you're doing it right.
Then maybe eventually, for a couple of years you're talkative,
and then after you've done it for ten years, you're
probably like, I've had every conversation I can have. I
can't do it anymore. I'm going silent.

Speaker 7 (19:57):
And also when we have people come in here and
they're in a mood and their hype it's a Friday.
Let's say, oh, like today, today's a Friday, and they're
all excited about the weekend we're working. And so it's
the dichotomy of people that are excited people that are
depressed at their jobs, and it just doesn't mix well.
It's oil and vinegar, oil and water, vinegar and salt. Yeah,

(20:17):
macaroni and cheese and milk, you know what I'm saying.
So I'm saying it's odd if you go into somebody's
job and you're pumped and they're depressed, it never ends well.
And that's a casino.

Speaker 12 (20:28):
Hey, it's Mike d And this week our movie Mike's
Movie Podcast. I did an entire episode on sequels that
I think should not have been made. Ben Stiller was
out recently talking about all the backlash he got for Zoolander, two,
which inspired the entire list. I also reviewed the new
Zindia movie Challengers, and I broke down the new Transformers trailer.
So those are things I do on my podcast every
single week. If you're not subscribed over there, what aoaight?

(20:50):
And for here just a little bit of my podcast
talking about bad sequels.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
Starting with the worst offender.

Speaker 12 (20:57):
The movie I bring up so much because I hate
it with a burning passion. It is Dumb and Dumber two,
and that is to that came out back in twenty fourteen.
And this is where I learned. What I've just been
talking about is as much as you want to see
your favorite actors come back and portray the characters that
made you laugh, Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels are incredible together,

(21:21):
and this was one. I was on that bandwagon. I
was on Reddit, following every storyline, with every script update.
I was all in on the Dumb and Dumber sequel. Now,
technically it's not a direct sequel because they came out
with the prequel, Dumb and Dumber Er in two thousand
and three, which is even worse because they aren't even
associated with that movie. That's another one that should have

(21:43):
been made but this is the sequel to Dumb and
Dumber that came out in ninety four, and I remember
seeing that first image of them back in the Harry
and Lloyd costumes and being so excited. And I've never
been so disappointed in a sequel because no one of
the jokes landed, and all the movie was was poking

(22:04):
fun and reminding audiences of what they did in the
original one, and that is not what we want. It's
hard to do a sequel because you need to advance
what you did in the first one and not just
remind people why that one was great, and Dumb and
Dumber two is the biggest offender of that. Along those
same lines will stick to Jim carrey movies Son of

(22:25):
the Mask in two thousand and five with Jamie Kennedy. Oh,
this movie does tarnish the legacy of The Mask, which
is also a nineteen ninety four movie when Jim Carrey
was really on his run of dominance. Son of the
Mask was nothing more than a cash grab because in
the first one it's so quirky and funny, But what
it does well is all of the little side gags,

(22:49):
and really you need Jim Carrey in that mask to
make it funny. Son of the Mask is one of
the most brutal experiences I've ever had watching a movie,
even in two thousand and five, where you could throw
anything on the screen and my fourteen year old self
would probably laugh at it, But this one was straight awful,

(23:09):
mostly due to the mass looking like a rubbery playto
piece of crap. So that is my second big offender.
My third biggest offender is one that came out pretty recently.
Hocus Pocus two is a movie that I just hate
that it exists because hocus Pocus won the original has

(23:30):
been one of my go to Halloween movies since I
can remember.

Speaker 1 (23:34):
It was always.

Speaker 12 (23:35):
Halloween time for me, whenever I'd go to school and
we'd throw on hocus Pocus Great memories with this movie.
I'd watch it every single year, And to me, this
movie is perfect.

Speaker 1 (23:46):
It should not have been touched.

Speaker 12 (23:47):
And right now, Disney is in a weird place of
movies that come out on Disney Plus and movies that
come out in theaters, and what they have really done
is kind of replaced their straight to vhs straight to
DVD movies made those Disney Plus exclusives. Hocus Pocus two
fell victim to that the movie just looks terrible. It
looks like it had zero budget. You bring back all

(24:10):
the originals and completely waste them to make a movie
that looks like a Saturday Morning special. And Disney has
done this a lot, so much so that I almost
don't count some of these sequels that they have done
because they are pretty bad. It really shows me how
much Disney has changed and has suffered at the box
office as of late, because they used to be so

(24:31):
dominant that they would only put out their biggest movies
in theaters and all the sequels would go straight to VHS,
which they also crushed in because they would sell so
many of them, so they would create classics, and then
they would have cheaply made sequels with less money spent
on animation. You wouldn't have the same caliber of voice actors.

(24:53):
You would rarely have people from the original ones be
on these sequels. But all these movies I would consider
should not have been rem and I bet they regret
some of these because they could have made sequels now
instead of remaking the original ones, which we are seeing
an influx up still. But Lion King two, Cinderella to
Little Mermaid two, Hunchback of Notre Dame, to Moulan, to

(25:13):
Bamby two. Some of these you probably forgot even happened
because they were really just a way for them to
sell more DVDs and VHS's the only one of these
movies that I liked, and I remember going to the
flea market in Dallas to get a copy of this.
Out of all of these movies, this is the only
one I was excited for as a kid, and it

(25:33):
was Lion King one and a half, which is a
great movie. I haven't rewatched it in a very long time.
I'm not sure if it's still available on Disney Plus,
but it was Lion King from the perspective of Timone
and Poomba, which as a kid, that is what I
love the most from Lion King because Poomba and Timone
are hilarious. They were the best part of that movie.

(25:54):
They were the comedic relief. So what you had in
Lion King one and a half was the storyline from
before they meet Simba, because they really don't encounter him
until about the start of the second act of the movie,
so you get to see all of their life before that,
and then you get to see their perspective from the
final battle, which is great, so all the other ones

(26:16):
should not have happened. Just give me lyon King one
and a half. Another more recent offender is Aquaman two,
which is one of the worst superhero movies I've ever seen.
I was quite honestly surprised how big of a hit
Aquaman one was, And this one also came at a
weird time of Warner Brothers kind of closing the chapter
on this DC era, and I feel like this movie

(26:39):
was dead on arrival.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
It had no real chance of success.

Speaker 12 (26:42):
But even that being said, I was not prepared for
the annihilation on my eyes from watching such a weak
performance from Jason Momoa, but also the worst visual effects
in the last decade when it comes to superhero movies.
I thought we were past making superhero movies. This bat
at a time where people are starting to be fatigued

(27:02):
with these movies. Really going to put this one out?
They should have shelved this movie.

Speaker 13 (27:26):
Carol Line, she's a queen and talking, and so she's
getting really not afraid to fit with Tiso and so
just let it flow.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
No one can do.

Speaker 3 (27:38):
Were quiet, car Line, It's time for Caroline.

Speaker 5 (27:45):
Hey, y'all.

Speaker 8 (27:45):
It's Caroline Hobby from Get Real with Caroline Hobby, and
here is a clip from this week's episode.

Speaker 13 (27:53):
But yeah, nineteen, I was married and we worry y'all
very young, but we had already just traveled really part
of the world together, but all over the United States
and a van and a car and you know sometimes
and then eventually we graduated. I mean, we traveled in
all kinds of things with wheels and there was never

(28:16):
a wheelbarrow, but if everything, But we slogged pretty hard.
And that's why I think a lot of people don't.
They're like, oh, they were one hit. Wonder are they
overnight sensation. But it wasn't that way at all. We
played and like first churches, youth group stuff like we're
going to get a pizza, everybody come and and people
were like crowd crowdsurfing and and like acting ridiculous to

(28:43):
you know, our songs.

Speaker 5 (28:45):
But they what we were.

Speaker 4 (28:46):
We were.

Speaker 5 (28:46):
We are a rock band.

Speaker 13 (28:48):
I think people, you know, it's easily kind of slips
into oh they were a pop bands. It kiss me,
but you come see a show, it's loud, and those
kids were banging up against each other pretty hard and
we knocked a kid out once, or we didn't do it,
but she fell and.

Speaker 5 (29:05):
Sure your own wrists.

Speaker 8 (29:06):
Yeah, So what is it like to get this dream
when you're super young?

Speaker 5 (29:13):
Lock in form a band, know this is what you're
gonna do.

Speaker 8 (29:16):
You start traveling around and then kiss Then you have
a song kiss me, and it blows up and your
dreams are coming true. It's like in the hottest movies
and TV shows. It's in Dawson's Creek, it's She's all that.
I was talking to Morgan, my producer, and we're walking
down here that iconic scene and she's all that where
Rachel Lee Cook is walking down the stairs and it's

(29:38):
like it was.

Speaker 5 (29:40):
The moment it kissed me? Was the song and it
was like in a queen's wedding or something insanis I
forget who, but yeah, it was. It was I wish.
I mean, it was worldwide.

Speaker 4 (29:51):
It was wonderful.

Speaker 13 (29:51):
But I was so like, was liked, they please let
us come and do that live?

Speaker 5 (29:56):
Oh my god, right, it would have been insane, but sane.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
But anyway, I think.

Speaker 5 (29:59):
It was Prince Andrew or something.

Speaker 13 (30:01):
I don't know.

Speaker 8 (30:02):
I did all of those TV shows in movie placements
is that what catapulted kiss Me? Or what was the
moment that shot the song into super stardom, Like what
what made it all come together?

Speaker 5 (30:15):
How did it become a rocket ship?

Speaker 13 (30:17):
I think radio and the and the the placements like
She's all that definitely was that a big one must
have played a big part.

Speaker 14 (30:26):
But radio we worked pretty hard to. I don't know
if this was new for the time, but we traveled
all over the country and showed up at radio stations
and just with our guitars and said can we just
play for you in the break room?

Speaker 1 (30:42):
Or it was very.

Speaker 14 (30:45):
Very personal based, like we were going around meeting a
lot of people, just talking to people and boots on
the ground and yeah and they they That gave us
a lot.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
Of momentum in the radio front.

Speaker 14 (30:56):
And then I remember a story that that thing you
do kind of moment that we had because we were
out there working hard and then we finally heard it
on a radio station and breaked out. Yet but I
think when it did hit the film world, that's when
it really sort of really like a rocket ship.

Speaker 8 (31:19):
And those shows like in the in the nineteen hundreds,
the late nineteen hundreds, it's so crazy in the late
nineteen hundreds, it was like those shows were epic.

Speaker 5 (31:32):
Everybody was watching Dawson's Creek. Everybody. When a new movie.

Speaker 8 (31:38):
Like She's All That came out, everybody was watching it.

Speaker 12 (31:41):
You know.

Speaker 8 (31:41):
It's like, I feel like there's so much more out
there now. It's it's like a little bit more you
get lost and lost. You can get lost, but like
you did not get lost in it back then. Like
it's like you were eagerly anticipating the next episodes of
these shows, you know, these movies and so and then
when the moment happened, and y'all are the song with
the moment, it's like, whoa.

Speaker 5 (32:03):
It impacts on such a big level.

Speaker 4 (32:06):
I guess it did.

Speaker 13 (32:07):
It didn't feel I don't know what if it felt
like it felt.

Speaker 5 (32:12):
Do you feel like you were a star overy night?

Speaker 13 (32:13):
Oh? No, I know.

Speaker 5 (32:14):
I've never a day in my life.

Speaker 4 (32:16):
Felt like a star.

Speaker 5 (32:17):
You've never a day in your life felt like a star?

Speaker 4 (32:19):
No way, man.

Speaker 13 (32:20):
Maybe the day after we played Letterman, I felt I
was feeling myself you should feel like a.

Speaker 8 (32:25):
Star on Letterman, and y'all says like a long show
on Letterman because somebody dropped out or had a fight.

Speaker 5 (32:31):
I don't know if it was a fight.

Speaker 13 (32:32):
I think Letterman got a little got a little testy
with the first with the only guess because it was
one guest was Chris Rock and it was us and
maybe somebody didn't show up. I'm not sure, but there
was extra time. Those are those moments you could never
plan for.

Speaker 8 (32:47):
It's like, y'all go to play your song and then
there's a you know, conflict on the set, so you
end up doing an interview. Did y'all play like another
song too? It's like you end up getting this bigger
slot on a huge We just did the one song.

Speaker 11 (33:00):
Yeah, did we do?

Speaker 2 (33:01):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (33:01):
We did well.

Speaker 14 (33:02):
I think I think I just remember he kept you
up there, He talked to you for a really long time.
I think he just lovely. He was like instantly it
was disarmed by you a little bit.

Speaker 13 (33:11):
Yeah, it was really sweet and I just could There
was no way to predict that, so it was so
quick the walking out and then suddenly because there was
really not any warning for that. It was like, play
the song and then afterwards you're gonna go there and
talk to your hero. And I love David Letterman, I
still do.

Speaker 8 (33:32):
Oh jeez, nobody does it like David Letterman.

Speaker 4 (33:35):
I was freaking out.

Speaker 5 (33:36):
Man.

Speaker 8 (33:36):
I bet that's a huge moment because David Letterman like
the David Letterman Show. Yeah, also again grew. Then those
shows are not that they don't matter today, because they do.
But it's just like, there weren't tons of outlets to
go get interviewed and talk about your music and to
be heard and scene. So when you made it to
one of those big moment monumentous monumental outlets, it's like,

(33:58):
holy cow, you know, and be talking to David Letterman,
when you dreamed this up at thirteen and sixteen.

Speaker 5 (34:04):
Years old or whatever, that's I gotta be crazy.

Speaker 2 (34:16):
Hey, thanks for listening to this week's Sunday sampler, new
episodes out of all those shows every single week. Hope
you're having a great Sunday all right, Bye Budy
