Speaker 1 (00:00):
No respect.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Am I just gonna again try to guess who uh
who you're doing here in the open?
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Well that's obvious, but max, shall I get into I
think a real Seinfeld situation in my life.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Okay, what's the deal? A bunch of impressions today.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
Yeah, But about a year ago I brought this topic
up on the podcast. I brought up how elated, how
excited slash how scared I was about a barber shop opening.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Up in my neighborhood. Yes, yeah, yeah, I was so excited.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Great prices right down the street, but I was afraid
they wouldn't get the foot traffic to stay open. Sure
they have. But now let me get into this. So
I go there roughly twice a month. My son goes
there roughly twice a month. He'll go there with me
or with me and my wife.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Be kind of weird if he went with anyone else.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Or just by himself. He's five, he shouldn't do that.
But at one point the barber had said to my wife, like, hey,
let us know ahead of time in case there's people
in here. We don't want you to wait. So at
one point there was an exchanging of phone numbers so
that she could let the barber know, you know, like, hey,
(01:17):
is there an availability right now? Wednesday morning, she gets
a text from the barber just saying hey. She's like,
can I help you? He's like, oh, I hope it's okay.
I'm just saying hi.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Now. How often does Dana bring RAFFI by herself?
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Sometimes, but it's usually with me, Slash, I'll bring raf
by myself Slash Like, it's pretty obvious that we are
a family. And yes, sometimes when we do walk by
the barbershop, we'll give a nice wave. It's a neighborhood place.
We're a neighborhood. We live in a world where people
(01:58):
should start saying hi.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Again, going back to your opening comment, yes, you get
no respect. Good. I have to be honest with you
next time before you go, get a pumpin, be real vascular,
don't wear sleeves, and you have to be as manly
as possible. Maybe get like, be as sweaty as possible.
(02:20):
Make sure this man smells your musk when you're within
ten feet of him.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Drag my scent into the shop.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
This is borderline enough to consider a new barber.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
So first off, my first thought was to go in there,
take my glove off, slap him with it, and demand
satisfaction pistols at dawn. Yes, right, I have not seen
him in the shop the last couple of days. But
then my wife also said to me, don't confront him, don't.
I'm like, that's you know, it's kind of an insult
to me.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Right, Yeah, I did you go in there. Don't sit
in the chair yet, because then he may fuck your
hair up. You're like, uh, did you text my wife? Yeah,
and just see what he says. Yeah, I'd like I
see what he says. Put him on the spot.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Kind of inappropriate. I've been in here since day one.
I come in here twice a month. You are inappropriate.
You are my barber. You are the specific person who
cuts my hair.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Yeah, yeah, very odd. Yeah, I don't like this one.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Good three Yeah, just three. King of Queen Marl Street Entertainment.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
I'm Goo and I'm Mac and we are the Mac
and Goo program. As you'll see, Goo, just look at
his hair. It looks disgusting right now. Can't get a
haircut right now?
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Well, now this is an inadvertently it's a snowball effect.
Now he's slapped his cock off your face. Now you
also haven't gotten acut.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
What I wanted to do was just go in there
and tell him how inappropriate it was. And I'm not
going back to him. You'll lost your customers. I'll go
back to my old barber.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Do you want me to record it for you? You
want to make a scene.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
I don't want to make a scene. Okay, all right,
but come on, come on now, come on now, what
are we doing?
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Good? Speaking of scenes, Yes, we're talking today about several
scenes strung together to.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Make a movie, to make a movie that's pretty good.
That was pretty good, that wasn't bad. But before we
get to those movies, because what we're doing here is
another one of our award winning.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
What have you been watching? What have you been watching?
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Speaking of my wife, she has once again broken the
algorithm on my YouTube page. Okay, she has gotten into
this storyteller. I would say. He goes on there eight
nine minute videos, tells stories, gives his opinion, but he
cuts his stories together with it ai and he also
(05:02):
is not interesting, and he has three names like a
fucking serial killer. My entire YouTube algorithm, my entire page
now is all recommendations of his shitty videos.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
I would say to you is to just not use
YouTube for your scrolling stuff. You know, it's not it's
not worth it. I like Youtobe, TikTok, Instagram both better options.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Well for watching long form content.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Long form it's different.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
That's what I'm doing, and all of his long form
content is on my fucking page.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Now wow, wow that suck. Great. No, you need to reset.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
I need to reset it again.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
If YouTube could, like every once in a while, just
text and be like, do you want to reset?
Speaker 1 (05:43):
I take it all right, I'd say, thanks, Mac.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Before we get to the movie that we both saw,
Let's get to one that is in theaters right now
and this weekend. Yes, we'll discuss further next week when
you have also seen that. You're seeing it this afternoon.
But that is one battle after another. The new Paul
Thomas Anderson movie starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, Benici Al
(06:08):
del Toro, Regina Hall, and I would say Rookie of
the Year Chase Infinity. I don't know who the fuck
that is, Rookie of the Year brand.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
I'm actually seeing it in about an hour. Yeah, so
we gotta we gotta fucking get going.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
I know, well, you're gonna be there for a long
time because it's two hours and forty one minutes. It
does have a ninety eight percent on roddy Te's and
maybe the most impressive at ninety six on Metacritic.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Ooh, do we know an audience score yet? Is there
enough review Well?
Speaker 3 (06:34):
There should be now, but I'll look that up. I'll
tell you this right now. It's gonna be divisive because
it does lean into radicalism and going up against the
police and everything else.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
So that is something that is gonna split the audience.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Hot off the presses. Yeah, eighty eight percent from the audience,
but under one thousand, under five hundred reviews so far,
so that could change. Dress.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
It is also very very long, and some people are
saying it could have been longer.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
I think it could have. It could have been taken
down a little bit.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Also, I would say that one of the storylines that
branches off that makes it even more divisive. I'm not
even sure if you needed that. We'll talk about that
more next week, Okay, But it is a it's a
good movie. It looks beautiful. Leonardo DiCaprio is very very
funny in it.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
All right. I am looking forward to seeing it.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Max shall we talk about the movie that set everyone
a blaze this summer.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Let's do it first up on the what have you
been watching? Lady Lately? Lady Lately is a movie both
Goo and I have seen. We are talking weapons Weapons
Weapons theaters on August eighth. It is available now digitally,
but you got to pay some money for it. It
it theaters to a forty three million dollar domestic open view,
(07:48):
pretty high for for a horror movie. Uh. It ended
up making two hundred and sixty three million dollars worldwide.
I think it is still in some theaters as well.
On a thirty eight million dollar budget. So this movie
made a lot of money, a lot of money. It
is an R rated horror and mystery subgenres here. I'm
not so sure. I did laugh out loud once. Dark comedy, Yeah,
(08:10):
you have psychological horror, supernatural horror, and which horror. Sure
those all work. Runtime of one hundred and twenty eight minutes. Now,
I do think it was paced well, but they make
a decision in telling this story that does sort of
like be it's abrupt at times.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
I'm not sure if it was paced well, because I
do think.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
It would pace it was paid.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
I think they could have made this better for me
if they didn't separate the stories into individual characters at
a time.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Yeah, so they make a decision here, uh one, two, three, four, five, six.
I believe there's six main characters that they tell this
story through the lens of six different perspectives that all
sort of culminates in a final thirty or so minutes.
So some people are just naturally not gonna like that.
I don't think GOO liked that. It didn't bother me.
I don't know if it really helped the story though.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
It just was a.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Decision that was made obviously pretty early on. Go on
Roddy teaz ninety four percent from the critics, eighty five
percent from the audience. Just about everyone I know that
had seen this movie prior to you, and I really
really liked it. I don't think I really really liked it,
but I think I liked it, just regularly liked it.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
I thought it was good. And maybe the hype the
hype train, if you will, I just thought of that,
maybe that set my expectations too high. But also I
and not to go down this world because I feel
like everyone does this with every movie now. I don't
really think of this as a horror movie.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
It's barely it's a little creepy, it's barely. Yeah, it
barely gets there. Eighty one on Metacritic, by the way,
so the critics really love this movie. Written and directed
by Zach Kreiger. You would know him from Barbarian.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Which I love that movie.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
I didn't love that movie. I'm actually feeling a lot
about this movie as I do about that movie for
different reasons. In this pipeline of these calm guys from
the late twentys early twenty tens that have turned into
these horror directors. Barbaria came out in twenty twenty two
and came out of fucking nowhere. So people have really
been anticipating Craiger's next movie as well. And after this
(10:13):
one upcoming, he has Resident Evil next year. What I
will say about Creiger is I think both Barbarian and
This are imperfect. But he's shown all the elements of
a near perfect movie in these two movies combined. So
I do think he's due for like an instant classic
type of thing. I don't think it's gonna be Resident Evil,
but I think he's got it in him. Synopsis when
(10:34):
all but one child from the same class mysteriously vanished
on the same night at exactly the same time. A
community is left questioning who or what is behind their disappearance.
This movie stars and now. These are the six characters
through which the perspective you see. Julia Garner as Justine,
the classes teacher, Josh Brolin as Archer, one of the
(10:55):
parents of the children, Alden ahren Reich as Paul, a
police officer in this town. Carrie Christopher is Alex, the
one remaining kid, Benedict Wong as Marcus, he's the principal
of the school, and then Austin Abrams as James. Like
the town druggy sort of thing. They also made a
decision here which I didn't care for. It just added
(11:15):
a random narrator character that came in at the beginning
at the end of the movie, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
It was bost It was weird.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
I thought I thought that was gonna matter. It didn't.
It was. It was a little weird. Due I think
the first hour of this movie is awesome, strong mystery.
It's not very scary, but strong mystery, and you're really
wondering what the fuck took place After the first hour,
it gets a little convoluted because then they start jumping
(11:42):
around more to the different perspectives for a storytelling device,
but also to try to sort of up the horror
and creep factor, and I'm not so sure that it succeeds.
And then we get to the final half hour that
I thought was just okay. I'm still not sure how
much I liked the ending. I do think it is
a better conclusion than Barbarian. I hated the ending of Barbarian.
(12:04):
It's a different ride in Barbarian than this movie has.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
I didn't like the exact like the final final part
of Barbarian, but I enjoyed acts one, two, and three
more than what we got here. I think Act one
of Or I'm sorry, so as we got the characters
throughout the set up.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
In Barbarian is better, no doubt.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
So I would also say this and like skip ahead
five ish minutes. We're not gonna spoil, but I don't
want to give anything way by accident. I like Justine's story,
and then I liked archer story a little bit less,
and then I liked Paul's story a little bit less.
And then so as we were going through I'm like,
I'm losing interest in what is happening, and not to
really spoil anything here, but once one character is introduced,
(12:45):
I did the Leo point, I'm like, bet it's her.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Yeah, they make a clear decision to introduce the character
with like what forty five minutes left, and you're like,
I don't this is a little bizarre. I also don't
care if it what the ca it looks like in
the backstory of the character, and sort of leading into
that and stumbling into this point, I don't really like
horror movies or movies in general where there's only one
(13:10):
person that can do things, one witchy person, one magical
person in this movie, and it's bothersome and it's not
the same as like having one big scary monster guy
like Halloween or Friday thirteenth, having like this supernatural witchy
woman that there should be more, or like I think
(13:31):
the perfect example is this. And this is the first
thing I said to post movie. In the movie Centers,
which deals with some fantastical things, both sides had a
fighting chance, and you know, you dealt with someone that
had knowledge of how to deal with vampires. This movie
lacks that, so it's really just like they could do
whatever they want.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
I would just say, like, I think the conclusion of
this movie, the result, the person that did it, everything
is like the least interesting thing about it.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I totally agree.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
I think that's the worst. Like the reveal I think
is the worst part of this movie.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
I totally agree with you. And the shitty part is
I think Kreiger and some of the audience really liked
it because now they're planning, or they're in talks a
prequel for that character, and I'm like, I don't want
that at all.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Tell the audience right now, I'm not gonna watch it.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Yeah, I don't like that at all. I don't want
to say too much more. I've already spoiled a little
bit of it. But I think I gave Barbarian thirty
two hot dogs, and I'm feeling very similar to this movie.
There's they're like, For example, the first hour of Barbarian
is like a forty dogger and then it just slowly
devolves into something that I didn't really like. This movie
was more up and down, and I have it in
(14:41):
the same range of thirty two Dogs, but for different reasons.
I was gripped by the original mystery here in what
was going on, but then it was real up and down.
I did love a couple scenes, a couple of great
scenes in this movie. It just didn't really reach the
highs of Barbarian. But I also didn't outright hate anything
in this movie like I did in Barbaris, and I
think this is a better conclusion. I did laugh out
(15:03):
loud at the culmination of this movie.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
But that's not what I want. Yeah, I know that
was a weird Yeah, I know it was silly.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
It was silly. It was silly. So I think I
got this like thirty two, thirteenth or fourteenth movie of
twenty twenty five. I could see going up a dog.
Maybe it is. It is a movie fun to talk about.
My main takeaway, though, which I sort of alluded to
at the top, is I do think Craiger has the
ability to make like a forty dog movie. He's shown
that he's had he he has everything. You know, he's
(15:34):
got it. I don't think that's coming with Resident Evil
once again, but I think he's got one in him
that's gonna be like, Oh, that that's a lasting one.
We'll be talking about that movie for years.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
I think I gave Barbarian either thirty four or thirty five.
I did prefer that way. More to this, I think
I have this one right around thirty one thirty two
as well. I look at it as like it's a
roller coaster ride that you start on the down ramp,
like you start with the ex part, and then the
last hour of the movie is you climbing up to
(16:04):
then get down the ramp again. But the ride just
stops at the top. You don't get that final exciting conclusion.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
And it baked into that for me is like the
bad person is like not that creepy, not that scary,
It's just no.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
And like I texted you about this yesterday, I'm trying
to finish. I know what you did last summer, but
I have no intrigue unless there's gonna be a fucking twist,
then I'll I'll eat my words right now. But like
the Bad Guys, it's a fucking Fisherman like scream. Those
aren't the best, but there's at least the intrigue of
trying to figure out.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Adds a massive element right any movie.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
So unless I know what you did last summer, out
of Nowhere is like here's Sarah Michelle Geller.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Here's Freddy Prince Junior.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
I think he's actually in the movie already.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (16:55):
Oh wait is he? Okay?
Speaker 3 (16:57):
Unless they're like, hey, here is name another teeny bopper
from the late nineties.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Brandy is Brandy also in this.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
Brandy's in the second one. I think she here's Brandy.
Either way, here's Monica.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
The boy is my.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Do any last thoughts on this movie?
Speaker 1 (17:15):
It's a watch. I don't think it's that.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
I think it's a watch. I think it's a watch.
I agree.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I was disappointed.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
I was not disappointed because I didn't have the highest
of hopes. It's it's an intriguing movie, Like, if you
like horror movies, you're gonna like this. But it's not
that scary. It's not that scary. Next up is a
movie that I watched that Goo has not yet seen.
Caught stealing This hit theater's August twenty ninth, still is
in a lot of theaters right now. It's coming to
(17:40):
digital on September thirtieth, but premium you'll have to pay
money for that. I believe it's coming to Netflix in December,
so you can catch it then for free. Go this
hit theaters made seven point eight opening weekend seven eight
point eight seven point eight million. Is that twenty nine
million worldwide? Right now? It's not gonna make much more,
and that's I'm a forty million dollar budget. That is
(18:02):
not great, not great, Bob. This is an R rated
crime and thriller. It has comedy listed here. I'm not
so sure this is very funny, you know, subgenre dark comedy, gangster,
psychological grare, psychological thriller. The director of this movie is
Darren Aronofsky, and if you know anything about Darren Aronofsky,
there's always psychological elements of his movies. This movie might
(18:25):
be the weakest of all of them in that respect.
Run time of one hundred and seven minutes, so it's
not long. It's just not great. And I'm very confounded
by these scores. Goog roddy t's eighty four percent from
the audience, eighty three percent for our eighty three percent
from the audience, eighty four percent from the critics of
sixty five a metacritic written by Charlie Houston. He was
(18:49):
a television writer predominantly prior to this something called Powers,
and also wrote on Gotham. I know how much you
love Gotham Again, directed by Aaronofsky. You'd know him from
Pie Recorheim, from a Dream, The Wrestler, Blackswan, Noah Mother,
which one of the worst movies of all time, and
The Whale, which honestly I didn't care for, but Brendan
Fraser was so good. He's also directing something upcoming called Breakthrough,
(19:10):
starring Dwayne Johnson. Synopsis of cott stealing. Burned out ex
baseball player Hank Thompson unexpectedly finds himself embroiled in a
dangerous struggle for survival amidst the criminal underbelly of nineteen
nineties New York City, forced to navigate a treacherous underworld
he never imagined. All you really need to know from
this movie is Austin Butler stars at Hank Thompson, Regina
(19:32):
King is Detective Roman, and Zoe Kravitz is Yvonne. This
movie kind of sucks. Go Austin Butler is fucking a plus.
Austin Butler carries this movie. Zoe Kravitz is very good
as well. Regina King is like playing almost like a
caricature of a character, and a lot of characters of
this movie are the world in which this movie is
(19:53):
set is bizarre. It's supposed to be a real world
that's just not well done. And that brings me back
to the right. The story, the writing, the dialogues, not good,
not good. If it weren't for Austin Butler, this movie
would be one of the worst of the year. I
didn't hate this movie because Austin Butler's so good and
he's on the screen for ninety nine percent of the time.
(20:14):
But it just feels like a couple characters are going
through the motions, a couple characters or caricatures, and you're
just not really invested in anything like the stakes. You
don't really care, so I do. It's on the bottom,
near the bottom of my list, but I've only seen
twenty nine or thirty movies this year. I would say
it barely floats because of Butler. I just I have
(20:34):
a hard time people really seeing, like really liking this movie.
I don't know, And maybe it's an Aeronofsky thing, like
I loved The Wrestler, but I'm pretty much lower in
all his other movies than most, so maybe that's a
me thing with Aeronofsky. But if you've seen in this movie,
I'd love to hear from me because I didn't think
it was very good, all right.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
And then finally a quick tease for what is coming
out next week, and that is The Rocks The Smashing Machine,
written and directed by Benny Safty, the story of mixed
martial artist and UFC champion Mark Kerr. As of right now,
a seventy seven on Roddy T's and a seventy on Metacritic.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
A little disappointed, okay, but you were expecting probably one
of the better movies of the year.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
Yes, everyone's talking it up. And then also I'm a
big fan of Safty. Everyone's saying that this is the
Rock's best performance. It probably is. Emily Blunt is in
it as Don Staples, who is the girlfriend. She's very
good in it. And then Ryan Bader plays Mark Coleman.
This is it in theaters in a week by the way,
next Friday.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Yes, So the sports action in it.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Mark Kerr, for what he does in the ring is
he's more of a wrestler, so he's pretty much always
going for that same.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
Like rappie wrestler.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
Yeah, wrap up and bring to the ground. It gets
repetitive and it gets a little boring.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Him in the Ring that was kind of what UFC
was in the nineties.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Though everyone had their own specialty.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Also, I'm not the biggest like UFC fans, so maybe
that also hinders how I'm looking at it. But I
thought there were some interesting things in here. Like I said,
the Rock is good and the stuff with him and Blunt,
it's a really interesting look at a relationship where throughout
the movie you feel like, oh, he's treating her poorly
or she's treating him poorly, and you're like, maybe they
(22:16):
just shouldn't be together, but they just keep on intertwining
back and forth to the point of like you don't
know where you side, because like the Rock is this
really kind, gentle, but passive, aggressive person, and Emily Blunt
is more in your face with it. She reminded me
a lot of Amy Adams in The Fighter.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
I like that.
Speaker 3 (22:35):
Okay, so I'm not going to give a score yet,
but I'm just gonna say, sit on it.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
It's not what I was hoping for.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
A couple questions for you here. Obviously, Emily Blunt is
pretty great every time. Is The Rock equal to or
greater then in this movie?
Speaker 3 (22:49):
Yeah, he does a great job with because he deals
with drug issues, so this blank dead stare that he
gives off. And there are two scenes in this that
I think are like unbelievable scene stealing stuff. There's one
with The Rock and Ryan Bader, and there is one
with The Rock and Emily Blunt. Both of them are
(23:11):
outrageously good scenes.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Okay. And then there's some other.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
Stuff that they try to get emotional with that I'm
not sure if it was deserved or not yet.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
Actually I'm stumbling into this question, yes, just because I
just spoke about that movie. It seems like thematically and
the way the movie is shot and crafted, it could
be a lot like The Wrestler. Is this as good
as The Wrestler?
Speaker 1 (23:32):
No, the Wrestler's great.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
The Wrestler is like a forty dogs.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
The Wrestl's amazing.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Okay. And then my final question, now that you have
seen one battle after another and the Smashing Machine, people
are talking Oscars Early Oscar chat, Yeah, who was better
Leo or Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
I think Dwayne the Rock Johnson is gonna be left
off the like he's gonna he was.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
You don't think he's gonna get named.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
I don't think he's gonna get Nambed. I thought he
was very good. I don't think he gets Nambed. I
think that Leo gets nombed and wins.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
Ooh okay, alright, well, because Leo also has more of
a history with winning, a history with being nominated, people
are going nuts over this movie.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
It's also something that I think Hollywood is gonna eat up.
All right, pick it or stick it goo new segments,
go ahead, don't stand on the fence on this one.
Sit on the fence, rit magooch.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Did Leo deserve his oscar for The Revenant?
Speaker 3 (24:24):
Yes, but I also understand that it might be more
of a lifetime achievement award, But sometimes that's gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
So is he gonna earn this one if he gets it?
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (24:34):
So I can't off the top of my head right now,
because right now is the season when award movies do
come out.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
October typically is when it starts, you know, snowballing, and
then by Christmas we have a good idea of how
things are gonna shake out.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
Like Sean Penn in one battle after another is a
real son of a bitch.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
I heard him for supporting it is like a lock.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
But I'm gonna tell you this right now. I preferred
Beneath del Toro's character in this. I kind of loved
his character, but he might not have been He was
not enough of the supporting ying Yang that Penn and
DiCaprio were.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
I think Benicio del Toro might be the only good
thing in Ryan Johnson's The Last Jedi.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
But once again, like I said, Mack and Goo Awards
at the end of the year, Chase Infinity I think
might get Rookie of the Year.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Okay, all right, And the Teiana Taylor look good, yes,
all right, love that.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
Yeah, there's a scene where Sean Penn just watching her
with binoculars.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
So for one battle and after another out in theaters
this weekend, you recommend people seeing it in theaters.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
Just keep in mind, a little bit long, but worth it.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
Yes, Smashing Machine out next weekend. Should people see that
in theaters?
Speaker 1 (25:46):
That might be a wait.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Okay, all right, all right, good enough, good enough. Let's
get into Mac Sach.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Mac Sac could be anything. It could be a boat.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
And as we wrap up, this is the final episode
of September. But to wrap up September, Mac, I know
that you know this. You celebrated this back on the
day what the actual anniversary was. But we are right
now in the twenty fifth anniversary of YouTube YouTube.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
That can't be right.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Did I say twenty sorry, twentieth anniversary two thousand and five.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
That makes sense. I also you said something that I celebrated,
and then you started with twenty. I thought we were
never I thought this was going to be a nine
to eleven thing. I thought you were teeing up a
nine to eleven. Mac.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Why would I do that on September?
Speaker 2 (26:42):
I don't know. I don't know. I don't know why
you do anything.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
That's okay, we'll put that in a promo. But let's
get to what I would like to tear here.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Mac.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Some of the most influential videos that we have ever
gotten has come through YouTube. So what we're gonna do
here is look at early vibeviral videos, and I want
you to tear these, Okay, So Mac, the tears that
we have here for our YouTube videos, our early viral
YouTube videos. And by the way, I did not put
(27:14):
the Landlord or anything Lonely Island or anything that's well polished.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
I think that.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
Stuff is amateur, amateur YouTube.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
I want amateur stuff that blew law and people just
lost their minds over.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
I want shit like that.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
So we have five tiers here at the top gonna
live forever?
Speaker 1 (27:36):
Do you really want to live forever?
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Whenever I hear that song and they say that, I'm
always like, yeah, I do want to live forever.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
I don't want to live forever. You have a Readtuckoverlasting Goo.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Come on, what happens in Tuck Everlasting?
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Tuck Ever lasts? It gets said, he loses everyone he loves.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
That's not good. The other ones that we have here,
we have changed my life.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Yeah, that feels like it should be higher than gonna
live forever. But what are you gonna do?
Speaker 3 (28:02):
Okay, guys, go on social media right now, tell us
which tier should be higher, Changed my life or live forever?
I think living forever is more important than changing one's life.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
The middle tier is loll l l all right, yep.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
The tier that is second from the bottom is I
don't know, I deky IDK might bff jill. Those are
early mid two thousand slang. By the way, I was
trying to incorporate and then just stop doing it, and
then at the bottom at stinks.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
Yeah, I don't know if anything is gonna be stinky.
We'll see, we'll see. I'm a big fan of early
YouTube days.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Early YouTube days were something else. They sure were, they
were something.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
And also to go viral, you just needed like a million, right,
a million?
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Do you remember?
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Yeah, a couple hundred thousand. Sure, we say that we go.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
Million every week we go viral, and we don't get
any money for that.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Mac.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
One of the earliest viral videos out there is the
Evolution of Dance.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
This came out in six.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
So this is impressive that someone was able to do this,
and like, as a first time watch, it's fun, It's
not very funny. Didn't change my life. Kind of forgot
about this video till you just brought it up now,
so I would say, IDK.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
So I recently when I pulled all these up, I
watched all of these and I watched this guy and
I'm like, all right, yeah, doesn't think but no, the
people in the crowd were just like they were excited
by music. The next one up here from twenty oh
six shoes Chez Sills.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
I loved shoes. I referenced shoes quite a lot for
a couple of years. Didn't change my life, and it
certainly hasn't lived on.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
If you're referencing it for years, it sounds like it
did change your life. Two years, two years of your
life were referencing shoes.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
Like lo on the reference list. I'm gonna go lol
on shiz.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Okay, so you're doing the voice right now. You fucking
referenced it for two years. It sounds like it changed
your life.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
It's an LOL.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
Maybe by the way, you can staple stamp, remove veto
at the end. Maybe after you see all these I
have about a dozen. Maybe after you see all of these,
by the way, they're all from before twenty ten, maybe
you might say to yourself, you know what, that did
change my life. The next one up here is maybe
one of the best sound clips of all time. Everyone
gets to hear it once a year, and that is.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Yeah, that Leprechaun video was all tied.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
It's gonna live forever. It's gonna live forever, And just.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
The screenshot that you're putting in the tier is still mimable.
You still see it all the time. You're right, that
is gonna live forever.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
That's a good one, forever and ever, Like every single
part of it might just be a crackhead.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
And then the drawing they actually put on the news
is preposterous.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
That could be and I'll find out by the end
of this the best viral video of all time.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
That was some police sketch. I has got that job
without ever thinking he'd have to sketch anything. And then
the first thing he got was Leprechaun and he's like, oh,
I can't do that.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
The next one up here, mac is one that I
often think about because of how confident the person is
and then the noise that they point out.
Speaker 1 (31:25):
There, well, it sounds like you during sex.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
I've read.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
I'm finished.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
This, of course is the Newslady trying to demonstrate how
to squash grapes to make wine. And also she only
follows like a foot and a half. Like the fact
that she got the wind knocked out of her. Well,
she broke two ribs. What are you talking about? She
broke two ribs. I do think this one gets forgotten
about a little bit, but it will live on forever.
(32:09):
That is that is pro show.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
The next one up here went on for many years.
People remembered what the URL link was to not click
on it after a while, and that was being rickrolled.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
I spent the better part of my four years in
college trying to rickroll anyone and everyone.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
I knew this changed your life. Fun.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
Rickrolling changed my life. And the first time I got
rick rolled, I was like, what just happened? I didn't
even know what happened. I had no idea what happened.
I was like, what, it's like Michael Scott. It's like
Michael Scott try to get people with the joke. It's
the same situation.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Max sat back and his Sharon just said, Am I dead?
Speaker 2 (32:47):
That I die?
Speaker 1 (32:49):
Am I even around?
Speaker 2 (32:53):
What's up? Uh? Literally the first day it happened to me,
I spent the whole day trying to pass on the rickroll.
It changed my life and I got creative with it,
as did the all of the internet. I would still
if I got rickroll today, I'd laugh at it. It's
great change my life. All right?
Speaker 3 (33:10):
How about this next one that I believe is one
of the most overrated of all time.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Charlie bit me, Charlie bet may I have referenced that
more than shoes probably over the years.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Charlie changed your life too.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
Charlie bet may Oh, I'd say lol, I'd say lol,
for Charlie bitmay.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
I mean they must have been on Allen at least
forty times.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
They actually ended up on Tosh I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
I mean, also, so this is from what year? Was
this one from? This is from twenty oh seven? Twenty eight?
What are we looking at here? Charlie bit my fingers?
Twenty oh seven. So these two kids now are of
the age where they can probably go out to bars soon,
or maybe they're in high school, and like the kid
in the front who bit the finger, can just like
(33:52):
go up to.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Girls and be like, hey, that's this move.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
He just bites their fingers.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
I'm Charlie.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
Yeah, shows the video that's me.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
Yeah, I'll bite your finger. Imagine that as a pickup line.
I bet you could try and use that too, I
don't think so. They'll look at you be like that
video is from twenty oh seven and you're pushing forty.
Come on, that's that's like a romy and Michelle claiming
that they invented post it notes. They're like, oh, I'm
Charlie from Charlie bit my finger. That's no way that's true.
(34:21):
First off, you don't have a British accent, and second, you.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
Are a very state side after I bit my brother's finger.
Speaker 3 (34:29):
Although, so that's what Romy and Michelle two should be.
They should claim that they are viral stars from their childhood.
We just wrote the sequel to Romy and Michelle.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
They could claim they were those two girls singing Nicki
Minaj you know Ma or no that just sing meg
a trainer.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
They're also on Alan Boom boom boom boom boom bass,
got that super bass boom boom boom.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
I think everyone in our list was on Ellen at
one point.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
Hey, mac lad, So this is why I think changed
my life. Is higher than gonna live forever. This is
gonna live forever. It's referenced by anyone and everyone ever.
We've referenced this on the podcast a hundred times, whether
by saying Brittany or an insert name here. I'd probably
use it once a week. This has changed my life.
(35:15):
I'll use it all the time.
Speaker 3 (35:16):
Should we put it on here twice and have it
in both tears? Well, we can put it in all
the tears if you want. They had what it was
a four minute video. It was a two and a
half four minute video. I can't think of the exact time,
but they really go to and they were ahead of
the times too, because I think it was at some
point everyone's.
Speaker 1 (35:34):
Like, maybe we should leave Brittany alone.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
I did stumble upon It was when Craig Ferguson was
stepping down as the late show host, and as everyone
else is just ripping into Brittany. You know, you have
your Lennos, you have your Lettermans, They're all you know,
they're all taking aim at Brittany.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
What Craig Ferguson did instead is he went on the
stage and told the story about when he wanted to
kill himself on Christmas Eve, saying that people have issues.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
Yeah, a lot of notable people have issues.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
So shout out, Craig Ferguson.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
A lot of people have issues.
Speaker 1 (36:10):
Hey, mac let me.
Speaker 3 (36:16):
I had to call out the music, don't sing too much.
I had to pull the music out so we don't
get flagged. I bet he sits around looking at coffee.
Speaker 2 (36:23):
Was a big part of my college life as well.
I don't know if he changed my life. But you
hear Chocolate Rain, that foot gets tapping, you start singing it.
I think Chocolate Rain is gonna live forever. Chocolate Rain
was was There's still like no videos like Chocolate Rain.
It's impossible to reproduce a Chocolate Rain type of thing.
(36:44):
That's a once in a life.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
Well, didn't Doctor Pepper hire him to do a version
of Doctor Pepper but from Chocolate Rain?
Speaker 1 (36:51):
So they can't duplicate it.
Speaker 2 (36:52):
But I mean how it happened originally, you know, that's
there's never another Taison day.
Speaker 3 (36:58):
Also, whenever that keyboard starts, I'm like, there is so
much going on right now.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
It's like, but no, no, no, no, no, no, no
chocolate Matt, keyboard Cat, keyboard cat kind of steak school.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
I'm not a keyboard cat guy. It's not for me.
It's not for me. I don't know if it ever
made me laugh.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
So this stinks, I'd say it stinks. Wow, keyboard Cat,
change the internet for you to say it stinks. Yeah, wow, wow,
wow wow. How about this little song bitch?
Speaker 2 (37:34):
I like Turtles. This is still funny every time I
watch it.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
This is still funny. The whole thing, the face paint
fifteen seconds is his you.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Know, undeveloped sort of talk speech. Everything about this video
is funny. It makes me laugh still to this point,
I still say I like Turtles.
Speaker 1 (37:58):
I mean I say that every day change my life.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
This video changed my life, changed your life. It's gotta
live forever as well. But that this video change.
Speaker 3 (38:05):
So you want to duplicate this one as well? Yes, okay,
so we need to start putting these into our tiers.
You get one duplicator that you can put one thing
into two different things. And then, oh, I also wanted
to put this in here. I want to call it
a Mario Maker. That mid tier. You can put a
new tier either at the top, the bottom or in
the middle.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
Insert a tier.
Speaker 3 (38:24):
You can insert a tier, all right, write that one
down so we don't forget it or just use it
right now. I don't give a shit. Oh you can
make one. You can do a you can do a
Mario Maker and say combine the top two into one.
Speaker 2 (38:38):
Yeah, I would, but I would. I wouldn't put Leprechaun
into change my life.
Speaker 3 (38:43):
No, but you can put one above called gonna live
forever and it changed my life. Okay, we'll just keep
that in our head. I'm not gonna visually do it
because it's gonna take me too much time. Hey Mac,
Also on Zombie Kid, just the fifteen seconds of l
we're standing here with so and so dressed like a zombie.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
What do you gotta say?
Speaker 2 (39:03):
I like turtles?
Speaker 1 (39:04):
All right? Back to you.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
My two favorite kid cut TOOS three actually is that
the little ginger kid as well, and he I forget
what word he keeps saying, probably whatever, whatever the hell
he says. And then also the like kindergarten kid that
they cut to and they asked him, I was.
Speaker 1 (39:22):
First, how are you feeling, I'm okay, and he just
starts crying.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
That kills me.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
That's a good one.
Speaker 3 (39:29):
My favorite, I don't even know where, like the actual
viral clip is. I saw it in one of those
news compilations of a weather guy doing something. He's giving
information and then a kid in the back and he goes.
Speaker 1 (39:40):
What's it to you? Wed a boy.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
That's a good one.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
That's a good one.
Speaker 3 (39:48):
Another one that I think is a little overrated is
David at the Dentist.
Speaker 2 (39:51):
Yeah, David, after dentist after dentist. This was the This
created a lot of copycats, not copycats, just people started.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
People started drugging their kids.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
I want to have seen a lot of you since
I do remember this being kind of the first one.
It made me laugh. I think it's an Lol. I
agree it is a little overrated though.
Speaker 3 (40:09):
And then finally, I think the first video that brought
us into the the auto tune, the news type of stuff,
or maybe it was already happening, and this is the
big one that broke out, and it's Anton Dobson.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
Anton Dobson, Hoija kids, Hija wife. This one didn't change
my life, but it's gonna live forever. It's gonna live.
I actually think, didn't Ellen even hire this guy for stuff?
Speaker 1 (40:32):
I'm pretty sure Ellen did a lot of things.
Speaker 2 (40:34):
Yeah, Hija kids, Hija wife's all time. Everyone uses that
all the time too. In reference to this, You're so dumb,
you are so dumb.
Speaker 3 (40:45):
Moving forward, Mario Maker could be you either build a
new tier or you can flip flop a tier.
Speaker 2 (40:52):
Okay, all right, yeah, yeah, I mean there are those
top two tiers are elite one way or the other.
Speaker 3 (40:57):
Do you want to Mario Maker it and flip the tear?
I think, look at that, Look at that. It took
me one click. Whoa Mario Maker.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
I like that. I like that. Man.
Speaker 3 (41:11):
All right, So our final tier of September, and keep
in mind October might be Octeerber, but let's start at
the bottom with its stinks.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
Keyboard Cat, keyboard Cat. I don't have any use for
keyboard cat.
Speaker 1 (41:25):
Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum.
Speaker 2 (41:29):
I think it.
Speaker 3 (41:29):
You know, it did a lot for videos personally, sure,
I DK I don't know. The guy who danced on stage, Yeah,
it was.
Speaker 2 (41:38):
It was cool. The one time l O L shoes ses.
Speaker 3 (41:42):
Charlie bit my finger, and then the kid who went
to the dentist and was Hi balls in the dentist.
Then Mac flipped the tears. He Mario making it. I'm
gonna put a sound effect in there after, maybe someone
clopping down like a hammer or something.
Speaker 1 (42:00):
Wait, what are you think for your sound effects?
Speaker 2 (42:01):
I punched the tear up, you know, like he's punching.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
That's good too, Okay, so then Mac flipped the tears.
Gonna live forever is.
Speaker 1 (42:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (42:14):
I say yeah every time I hear that, because you
know what, in my eyes, I see this little drawn
leprechaun sitting in a tree.
Speaker 2 (42:20):
It's great, it's great.
Speaker 3 (42:21):
They dedicated so much time to that story too. It's
a well crafted story. Honestly, it's funny.
Speaker 2 (42:30):
Without the visual, and then when they cut to the drawing,
it takes it to a whole other level.
Speaker 1 (42:36):
It could just be a crackhead. What is this next one?
Speaker 2 (42:41):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (42:41):
This is the every you know what's weird is that's
my safe work, that entire thing. Oh then we got
(43:05):
this fucking guy let me Anton Dobson and then changed
my life. Mac flipped it.
Speaker 1 (43:13):
At the top. I can't believe you did this for
four years. You rickrolled people.
Speaker 2 (43:17):
Anyone, especially through aim because you could disguise the links.
Remember you could have it read what it wasn't just
rickrolling people left and right?
Speaker 1 (43:26):
Lay alone? And also I like turtles tootles?
Speaker 3 (43:32):
Are there any viral videos once again, amateur stuff amateur
that I did not have here that you would also
put on here.
Speaker 1 (43:39):
And it has to be early stuff.
Speaker 2 (43:41):
Two that came to mind. I want some waffle froes
for free.
Speaker 1 (43:45):
That's a good one.
Speaker 2 (43:46):
That's a great one. And then salad fingers sold fingers,
Oh my god, salad.
Speaker 1 (43:50):
Fingers, Yeah, everybody, that's my horse.
Speaker 3 (43:59):
Such a good I love salad fingers. It's so fucking
stupid Early. What is the what's the one with the
horse that has its liver taken out and they go
to God's go to Candy Islands?
Speaker 2 (44:13):
Yeah, oh yeah, that's right. It's the unicorns, I think, yes, yeah,
Candy Mountain, Candy Mountain, it's Charlie.
Speaker 1 (44:20):
Right, yes, Charlie, We're going to Candy Mountain.
Speaker 2 (44:23):
That's leave me alone.
Speaker 3 (44:24):
And he's like an h John Benjamin voice, Yes, yes,
and they steal his liver. Yeah, that's a good one too.
Speaker 2 (44:30):

Speaker 1 (46:32):
Now it's time for girls jumping on trampopalines.
No respect.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Am I just gonna again try to guess who uh
who you're doing here in the open?
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Well that's obvious, but max, shall I get into I
think a real Seinfeld situation in my life.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Okay, what's the deal? A bunch of impressions today.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
Yeah, But about a year ago I brought this topic
up on the podcast. I brought up how elated, how
excited slash how scared I was about a barber shop opening.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Up in my neighborhood. Yes, yeah, yeah, I was so excited.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Great prices right down the street, but I was afraid
they wouldn't get the foot traffic to stay open. Sure
they have. But now let me get into this. So
I go there roughly twice a month. My son goes
there roughly twice a month. He'll go there with me
or with me and my wife.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Be kind of weird if he went with anyone else.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Or just by himself. He's five, he shouldn't do that.
But at one point the barber had said to my wife, like, hey,
let us know ahead of time in case there's people
in here. We don't want you to wait. So at
one point there was an exchanging of phone numbers so
that she could let the barber know, you know, like, hey,
(01:17):
is there an availability right now? Wednesday morning, she gets
a text from the barber just saying hey. She's like,
can I help you? He's like, oh, I hope it's okay.
I'm just saying hi.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Now. How often does Dana bring RAFFI by herself?
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Sometimes, but it's usually with me, Slash, I'll bring raf
by myself Slash Like, it's pretty obvious that we are
a family. And yes, sometimes when we do walk by
the barbershop, we'll give a nice wave. It's a neighborhood place.
We're a neighborhood. We live in a world where people
(01:58):
should start saying hi.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Again, going back to your opening comment, yes, you get
no respect. Good. I have to be honest with you
next time before you go, get a pumpin, be real vascular,
don't wear sleeves, and you have to be as manly
as possible. Maybe get like, be as sweaty as possible.
(02:20):
Make sure this man smells your musk when you're within
ten feet of him.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Drag my scent into the shop.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
This is borderline enough to consider a new barber.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
So first off, my first thought was to go in there,
take my glove off, slap him with it, and demand
satisfaction pistols at dawn. Yes, right, I have not seen
him in the shop the last couple of days. But
then my wife also said to me, don't confront him, don't.
I'm like, that's you know, it's kind of an insult
to me.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Right, Yeah, I did you go in there. Don't sit
in the chair yet, because then he may fuck your
hair up. You're like, uh, did you text my wife? Yeah,
and just see what he says. Yeah, I'd like I
see what he says. Put him on the spot.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Kind of inappropriate. I've been in here since day one.
I come in here twice a month. You are inappropriate.
You are my barber. You are the specific person who
cuts my hair.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Yeah, yeah, very odd. Yeah, I don't like this one.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Good three Yeah, just three. King of Queen Marl Street Entertainment.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
I'm Goo and I'm Mac and we are the Mac
and Goo program. As you'll see, Goo, just look at
his hair. It looks disgusting right now. Can't get a
haircut right now?
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Well, now this is an inadvertently it's a snowball effect.
Now he's slapped his cock off your face. Now you
also haven't gotten acut.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
What I wanted to do was just go in there
and tell him how inappropriate it was. And I'm not
going back to him. You'll lost your customers. I'll go
back to my old barber.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Do you want me to record it for you? You
want to make a scene.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
I don't want to make a scene. Okay, all right,
but come on, come on now, come on now, what
are we doing?
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Good? Speaking of scenes, Yes, we're talking today about several
scenes strung together to.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Make a movie, to make a movie that's pretty good.
That was pretty good, that wasn't bad. But before we
get to those movies, because what we're doing here is
another one of our award winning.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
What have you been watching? What have you been watching?
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Speaking of my wife, she has once again broken the
algorithm on my YouTube page. Okay, she has gotten into
this storyteller. I would say. He goes on there eight
nine minute videos, tells stories, gives his opinion, but he
cuts his stories together with it ai and he also
(05:02):
is not interesting, and he has three names like a
fucking serial killer. My entire YouTube algorithm, my entire page
now is all recommendations of his shitty videos.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
I would say to you is to just not use
YouTube for your scrolling stuff. You know, it's not it's
not worth it. I like Youtobe, TikTok, Instagram both better options.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Well for watching long form content.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Long form it's different.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
That's what I'm doing, and all of his long form
content is on my fucking page.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Now wow, wow that suck. Great. No, you need to reset.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
I need to reset it again.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
If YouTube could, like every once in a while, just
text and be like, do you want to reset?
Speaker 1 (05:43):
I take it all right, I'd say, thanks, Mac.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Before we get to the movie that we both saw,
Let's get to one that is in theaters right now
and this weekend. Yes, we'll discuss further next week when
you have also seen that. You're seeing it this afternoon.
But that is one battle after another. The new Paul
Thomas Anderson movie starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, Benici Al
(06:08):
del Toro, Regina Hall, and I would say Rookie of
the Year Chase Infinity. I don't know who the fuck
that is, Rookie of the Year brand.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
I'm actually seeing it in about an hour. Yeah, so
we gotta we gotta fucking get going.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
I know, well, you're gonna be there for a long
time because it's two hours and forty one minutes. It
does have a ninety eight percent on roddy Te's and
maybe the most impressive at ninety six on Metacritic.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Ooh, do we know an audience score yet? Is there
enough review Well?
Speaker 3 (06:34):
There should be now, but I'll look that up. I'll
tell you this right now. It's gonna be divisive because
it does lean into radicalism and going up against the
police and everything else.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
So that is something that is gonna split the audience.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Hot off the presses. Yeah, eighty eight percent from the audience,
but under one thousand, under five hundred reviews so far,
so that could change. Dress.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
It is also very very long, and some people are
saying it could have been longer.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
I think it could have. It could have been taken
down a little bit.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Also, I would say that one of the storylines that
branches off that makes it even more divisive. I'm not
even sure if you needed that. We'll talk about that
more next week, Okay, But it is a it's a
good movie. It looks beautiful. Leonardo DiCaprio is very very
funny in it.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
All right. I am looking forward to seeing it.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Max shall we talk about the movie that set everyone
a blaze this summer.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Let's do it first up on the what have you
been watching? Lady Lately? Lady Lately is a movie both
Goo and I have seen. We are talking weapons Weapons
Weapons theaters on August eighth. It is available now digitally,
but you got to pay some money for it. It
it theaters to a forty three million dollar domestic open view,
(07:48):
pretty high for for a horror movie. Uh. It ended
up making two hundred and sixty three million dollars worldwide.
I think it is still in some theaters as well.
On a thirty eight million dollar budget. So this movie
made a lot of money, a lot of money. It
is an R rated horror and mystery subgenres here. I'm
not so sure. I did laugh out loud once. Dark comedy, Yeah,
(08:10):
you have psychological horror, supernatural horror, and which horror. Sure
those all work. Runtime of one hundred and twenty eight minutes. Now,
I do think it was paced well, but they make
a decision in telling this story that does sort of
like be it's abrupt at times.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
I'm not sure if it was paced well, because I
do think.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
It would pace it was paid.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
I think they could have made this better for me
if they didn't separate the stories into individual characters at
a time.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Yeah, so they make a decision here, uh one, two, three, four, five, six.
I believe there's six main characters that they tell this
story through the lens of six different perspectives that all
sort of culminates in a final thirty or so minutes.
So some people are just naturally not gonna like that.
I don't think GOO liked that. It didn't bother me.
I don't know if it really helped the story though.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
It just was a.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Decision that was made obviously pretty early on. Go on
Roddy teaz ninety four percent from the critics, eighty five
percent from the audience. Just about everyone I know that
had seen this movie prior to you, and I really
really liked it. I don't think I really really liked it,
but I think I liked it, just regularly liked it.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
I thought it was good. And maybe the hype the
hype train, if you will, I just thought of that,
maybe that set my expectations too high. But also I
and not to go down this world because I feel
like everyone does this with every movie now. I don't
really think of this as a horror movie.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
It's barely it's a little creepy, it's barely. Yeah, it
barely gets there. Eighty one on Metacritic, by the way,
so the critics really love this movie. Written and directed
by Zach Kreiger. You would know him from Barbarian.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Which I love that movie.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
I didn't love that movie. I'm actually feeling a lot
about this movie as I do about that movie for
different reasons. In this pipeline of these calm guys from
the late twentys early twenty tens that have turned into
these horror directors. Barbaria came out in twenty twenty two
and came out of fucking nowhere. So people have really
been anticipating Craiger's next movie as well. And after this
(10:13):
one upcoming, he has Resident Evil next year. What I
will say about Creiger is I think both Barbarian and
This are imperfect. But he's shown all the elements of
a near perfect movie in these two movies combined. So
I do think he's due for like an instant classic
type of thing. I don't think it's gonna be Resident Evil,
but I think he's got it in him. Synopsis when
(10:34):
all but one child from the same class mysteriously vanished
on the same night at exactly the same time. A
community is left questioning who or what is behind their disappearance.
This movie stars and now. These are the six characters
through which the perspective you see. Julia Garner as Justine,
the classes teacher, Josh Brolin as Archer, one of the
(10:55):
parents of the children, Alden ahren Reich as Paul, a
police officer in this town. Carrie Christopher is Alex, the
one remaining kid, Benedict Wong as Marcus, he's the principal
of the school, and then Austin Abrams as James. Like
the town druggy sort of thing. They also made a
decision here which I didn't care for. It just added
(11:15):
a random narrator character that came in at the beginning
at the end of the movie, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
It was bost It was weird.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
I thought I thought that was gonna matter. It didn't.
It was. It was a little weird. Due I think
the first hour of this movie is awesome, strong mystery.
It's not very scary, but strong mystery, and you're really
wondering what the fuck took place After the first hour,
it gets a little convoluted because then they start jumping
(11:42):
around more to the different perspectives for a storytelling device,
but also to try to sort of up the horror
and creep factor, and I'm not so sure that it succeeds.
And then we get to the final half hour that
I thought was just okay. I'm still not sure how
much I liked the ending. I do think it is
a better conclusion than Barbarian. I hated the ending of Barbarian.
(12:04):
It's a different ride in Barbarian than this movie has.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
I didn't like the exact like the final final part
of Barbarian, but I enjoyed acts one, two, and three
more than what we got here. I think Act one
of Or I'm sorry, so as we got the characters
throughout the set up.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
In Barbarian is better, no doubt.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
So I would also say this and like skip ahead
five ish minutes. We're not gonna spoil, but I don't
want to give anything way by accident. I like Justine's story,
and then I liked archer story a little bit less,
and then I liked Paul's story a little bit less.
And then so as we were going through I'm like,
I'm losing interest in what is happening, and not to
really spoil anything here, but once one character is introduced,
(12:45):
I did the Leo point, I'm like, bet it's her.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Yeah, they make a clear decision to introduce the character
with like what forty five minutes left, and you're like,
I don't this is a little bizarre. I also don't
care if it what the ca it looks like in
the backstory of the character, and sort of leading into
that and stumbling into this point, I don't really like
horror movies or movies in general where there's only one
(13:10):
person that can do things, one witchy person, one magical
person in this movie, and it's bothersome and it's not
the same as like having one big scary monster guy
like Halloween or Friday thirteenth, having like this supernatural witchy
woman that there should be more, or like I think
(13:31):
the perfect example is this. And this is the first
thing I said to post movie. In the movie Centers,
which deals with some fantastical things, both sides had a
fighting chance, and you know, you dealt with someone that
had knowledge of how to deal with vampires. This movie
lacks that, so it's really just like they could do
whatever they want.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
I would just say, like, I think the conclusion of
this movie, the result, the person that did it, everything
is like the least interesting thing about it.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I totally agree.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
I think that's the worst. Like the reveal I think
is the worst part of this movie.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
I totally agree with you. And the shitty part is
I think Kreiger and some of the audience really liked
it because now they're planning, or they're in talks a
prequel for that character, and I'm like, I don't want
that at all.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Tell the audience right now, I'm not gonna watch it.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Yeah, I don't like that at all. I don't want
to say too much more. I've already spoiled a little
bit of it. But I think I gave Barbarian thirty
two hot dogs, and I'm feeling very similar to this movie.
There's they're like, For example, the first hour of Barbarian
is like a forty dogger and then it just slowly
devolves into something that I didn't really like. This movie
was more up and down, and I have it in
(14:41):
the same range of thirty two Dogs, but for different reasons.
I was gripped by the original mystery here in what
was going on, but then it was real up and down.
I did love a couple scenes, a couple of great
scenes in this movie. It just didn't really reach the
highs of Barbarian. But I also didn't outright hate anything
in this movie like I did in Barbaris, and I
think this is a better conclusion. I did laugh out
(15:03):
loud at the culmination of this movie.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
But that's not what I want. Yeah, I know that
was a weird Yeah, I know it was silly.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
It was silly. It was silly. So I think I
got this like thirty two, thirteenth or fourteenth movie of
twenty twenty five. I could see going up a dog.
Maybe it is. It is a movie fun to talk about.
My main takeaway, though, which I sort of alluded to
at the top, is I do think Craiger has the
ability to make like a forty dog movie. He's shown
that he's had he he has everything. You know, he's
(15:34):
got it. I don't think that's coming with Resident Evil
once again, but I think he's got one in him
that's gonna be like, Oh, that that's a lasting one.
We'll be talking about that movie for years.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
I think I gave Barbarian either thirty four or thirty five.
I did prefer that way. More to this, I think
I have this one right around thirty one thirty two
as well. I look at it as like it's a
roller coaster ride that you start on the down ramp,
like you start with the ex part, and then the
last hour of the movie is you climbing up to
(16:04):
then get down the ramp again. But the ride just
stops at the top. You don't get that final exciting conclusion.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
And it baked into that for me is like the
bad person is like not that creepy, not that scary,
It's just no.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
And like I texted you about this yesterday, I'm trying
to finish. I know what you did last summer, but
I have no intrigue unless there's gonna be a fucking twist,
then I'll I'll eat my words right now. But like
the Bad Guys, it's a fucking Fisherman like scream. Those
aren't the best, but there's at least the intrigue of
trying to figure out.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Adds a massive element right any movie.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
So unless I know what you did last summer, out
of Nowhere is like here's Sarah Michelle Geller.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Here's Freddy Prince Junior.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
I think he's actually in the movie already.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (16:55):
Oh wait is he? Okay?
Speaker 3 (16:57):
Unless they're like, hey, here is name another teeny bopper
from the late nineties.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Brandy is Brandy also in this.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
Brandy's in the second one. I think she here's Brandy.
Either way, here's Monica.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
The boy is my.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Do any last thoughts on this movie?
Speaker 1 (17:15):
It's a watch. I don't think it's that.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
I think it's a watch. I think it's a watch.
I agree.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I was disappointed.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
I was not disappointed because I didn't have the highest
of hopes. It's it's an intriguing movie, Like, if you
like horror movies, you're gonna like this. But it's not
that scary. It's not that scary. Next up is a
movie that I watched that Goo has not yet seen.
Caught stealing This hit theater's August twenty ninth, still is
in a lot of theaters right now. It's coming to
(17:40):
digital on September thirtieth, but premium you'll have to pay
money for that. I believe it's coming to Netflix in December,
so you can catch it then for free. Go this
hit theaters made seven point eight opening weekend seven eight
point eight seven point eight million. Is that twenty nine
million worldwide? Right now? It's not gonna make much more,
and that's I'm a forty million dollar budget. That is
(18:02):
not great, not great, Bob. This is an R rated
crime and thriller. It has comedy listed here. I'm not
so sure this is very funny, you know, subgenre dark comedy, gangster,
psychological grare, psychological thriller. The director of this movie is
Darren Aronofsky, and if you know anything about Darren Aronofsky,
there's always psychological elements of his movies. This movie might
(18:25):
be the weakest of all of them in that respect.
Run time of one hundred and seven minutes, so it's
not long. It's just not great. And I'm very confounded
by these scores. Goog roddy t's eighty four percent from
the audience, eighty three percent for our eighty three percent
from the audience, eighty four percent from the critics of
sixty five a metacritic written by Charlie Houston. He was
(18:49):
a television writer predominantly prior to this something called Powers,
and also wrote on Gotham. I know how much you
love Gotham Again, directed by Aaronofsky. You'd know him from
Pie Recorheim, from a Dream, The Wrestler, Blackswan, Noah Mother,
which one of the worst movies of all time, and
The Whale, which honestly I didn't care for, but Brendan
Fraser was so good. He's also directing something upcoming called Breakthrough,
(19:10):
starring Dwayne Johnson. Synopsis of cott stealing. Burned out ex
baseball player Hank Thompson unexpectedly finds himself embroiled in a
dangerous struggle for survival amidst the criminal underbelly of nineteen
nineties New York City, forced to navigate a treacherous underworld
he never imagined. All you really need to know from
this movie is Austin Butler stars at Hank Thompson, Regina
(19:32):
King is Detective Roman, and Zoe Kravitz is Yvonne. This
movie kind of sucks. Go Austin Butler is fucking a plus.
Austin Butler carries this movie. Zoe Kravitz is very good
as well. Regina King is like playing almost like a
caricature of a character, and a lot of characters of
this movie are the world in which this movie is
(19:53):
set is bizarre. It's supposed to be a real world
that's just not well done. And that brings me back
to the right. The story, the writing, the dialogues, not good,
not good. If it weren't for Austin Butler, this movie
would be one of the worst of the year. I
didn't hate this movie because Austin Butler's so good and
he's on the screen for ninety nine percent of the time.
(20:14):
But it just feels like a couple characters are going
through the motions, a couple characters or caricatures, and you're
just not really invested in anything like the stakes. You
don't really care, so I do. It's on the bottom,
near the bottom of my list, but I've only seen
twenty nine or thirty movies this year. I would say
it barely floats because of Butler. I just I have
(20:34):
a hard time people really seeing, like really liking this movie.
I don't know, And maybe it's an Aeronofsky thing, like
I loved The Wrestler, but I'm pretty much lower in
all his other movies than most, so maybe that's a
me thing with Aeronofsky. But if you've seen in this movie,
I'd love to hear from me because I didn't think
it was very good, all right.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
And then finally a quick tease for what is coming
out next week, and that is The Rocks The Smashing Machine,
written and directed by Benny Safty, the story of mixed
martial artist and UFC champion Mark Kerr. As of right now,
a seventy seven on Roddy T's and a seventy on Metacritic.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
A little disappointed, okay, but you were expecting probably one
of the better movies of the year.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
Yes, everyone's talking it up. And then also I'm a
big fan of Safty. Everyone's saying that this is the
Rock's best performance. It probably is. Emily Blunt is in
it as Don Staples, who is the girlfriend. She's very
good in it. And then Ryan Bader plays Mark Coleman.
This is it in theaters in a week by the way,
next Friday.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Yes, So the sports action in it.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Mark Kerr, for what he does in the ring is
he's more of a wrestler, so he's pretty much always
going for that same.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
Like rappie wrestler.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
Yeah, wrap up and bring to the ground. It gets
repetitive and it gets a little boring.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Him in the Ring that was kind of what UFC
was in the nineties.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Though everyone had their own specialty.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Also, I'm not the biggest like UFC fans, so maybe
that also hinders how I'm looking at it. But I
thought there were some interesting things in here. Like I said,
the Rock is good and the stuff with him and Blunt,
it's a really interesting look at a relationship where throughout
the movie you feel like, oh, he's treating her poorly
or she's treating him poorly, and you're like, maybe they
(22:16):
just shouldn't be together, but they just keep on intertwining
back and forth to the point of like you don't
know where you side, because like the Rock is this
really kind, gentle, but passive, aggressive person, and Emily Blunt
is more in your face with it. She reminded me
a lot of Amy Adams in The Fighter.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
I like that.
Speaker 3 (22:35):
Okay, so I'm not going to give a score yet,
but I'm just gonna say, sit on it.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
It's not what I was hoping for.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
A couple questions for you here. Obviously, Emily Blunt is
pretty great every time. Is The Rock equal to or
greater then in this movie?
Speaker 3 (22:49):
Yeah, he does a great job with because he deals
with drug issues, so this blank dead stare that he
gives off. And there are two scenes in this that
I think are like unbelievable scene stealing stuff. There's one
with The Rock and Ryan Bader, and there is one
with The Rock and Emily Blunt. Both of them are
(23:11):
outrageously good scenes.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Okay. And then there's some other.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
Stuff that they try to get emotional with that I'm
not sure if it was deserved or not yet.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
Actually I'm stumbling into this question, yes, just because I
just spoke about that movie. It seems like thematically and
the way the movie is shot and crafted, it could
be a lot like The Wrestler. Is this as good
as The Wrestler?
Speaker 1 (23:32):
No, the Wrestler's great.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
The Wrestler is like a forty dogs.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
The Wrestl's amazing.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Okay. And then my final question, now that you have
seen one battle after another and the Smashing Machine, people
are talking Oscars Early Oscar chat, Yeah, who was better
Leo or Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
I think Dwayne the Rock Johnson is gonna be left
off the like he's gonna he was.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
You don't think he's gonna get named.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
I don't think he's gonna get Nambed. I thought he
was very good. I don't think he gets Nambed. I
think that Leo gets nombed and wins.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
Ooh okay, alright, well, because Leo also has more of
a history with winning, a history with being nominated, people
are going nuts over this movie.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
It's also something that I think Hollywood is gonna eat up.
All right, pick it or stick it goo new segments,
go ahead, don't stand on the fence on this one.
Sit on the fence, rit magooch.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Did Leo deserve his oscar for The Revenant?
Speaker 3 (24:24):
Yes, but I also understand that it might be more
of a lifetime achievement award, But sometimes that's gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
So is he gonna earn this one if he gets it?
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (24:34):
So I can't off the top of my head right now,
because right now is the season when award movies do
come out.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
October typically is when it starts, you know, snowballing, and
then by Christmas we have a good idea of how
things are gonna shake out.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
Like Sean Penn in one battle after another is a
real son of a bitch.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
I heard him for supporting it is like a lock.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
But I'm gonna tell you this right now. I preferred
Beneath del Toro's character in this. I kind of loved
his character, but he might not have been He was
not enough of the supporting ying Yang that Penn and
DiCaprio were.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
I think Benicio del Toro might be the only good
thing in Ryan Johnson's The Last Jedi.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
But once again, like I said, Mack and Goo Awards
at the end of the year, Chase Infinity I think
might get Rookie of the Year.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Okay, all right, And the Teiana Taylor look good, yes,
all right, love that.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
Yeah, there's a scene where Sean Penn just watching her
with binoculars.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
So for one battle and after another out in theaters
this weekend, you recommend people seeing it in theaters.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
Just keep in mind, a little bit long, but worth it.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
Yes, Smashing Machine out next weekend. Should people see that
in theaters?
Speaker 1 (25:46):
That might be a wait.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Okay, all right, all right, good enough, good enough. Let's
get into Mac Sach.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Mac Sac could be anything. It could be a boat.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
And as we wrap up, this is the final episode
of September. But to wrap up September, Mac, I know
that you know this. You celebrated this back on the
day what the actual anniversary was. But we are right
now in the twenty fifth anniversary of YouTube YouTube.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
That can't be right.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Did I say twenty sorry, twentieth anniversary two thousand and five.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
That makes sense. I also you said something that I celebrated,
and then you started with twenty. I thought we were
never I thought this was going to be a nine
to eleven thing. I thought you were teeing up a
nine to eleven. Mac.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Why would I do that on September?
Speaker 2 (26:42):
I don't know. I don't know. I don't know why
you do anything.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
That's okay, we'll put that in a promo. But let's
get to what I would like to tear here.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Mac.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Some of the most influential videos that we have ever
gotten has come through YouTube. So what we're gonna do
here is look at early vibeviral videos, and I want
you to tear these, Okay, So Mac, the tears that
we have here for our YouTube videos, our early viral
YouTube videos. And by the way, I did not put
(27:14):
the Landlord or anything Lonely Island or anything that's well polished.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
I think that.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
Stuff is amateur, amateur YouTube.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
I want amateur stuff that blew law and people just
lost their minds over.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
I want shit like that.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
So we have five tiers here at the top gonna
live forever?
Speaker 1 (27:36):
Do you really want to live forever?
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Whenever I hear that song and they say that, I'm
always like, yeah, I do want to live forever.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
I don't want to live forever. You have a Readtuckoverlasting Goo.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Come on, what happens in Tuck Everlasting?
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Tuck Ever lasts? It gets said, he loses everyone he loves.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
That's not good. The other ones that we have here,
we have changed my life.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Yeah, that feels like it should be higher than gonna
live forever. But what are you gonna do?
Speaker 3 (28:02):
Okay, guys, go on social media right now, tell us
which tier should be higher, Changed my life or live forever?
I think living forever is more important than changing one's life.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
The middle tier is loll l l all right, yep.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
The tier that is second from the bottom is I
don't know, I deky IDK might bff jill. Those are
early mid two thousand slang. By the way, I was
trying to incorporate and then just stop doing it, and
then at the bottom at stinks.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
Yeah, I don't know if anything is gonna be stinky.
We'll see, we'll see. I'm a big fan of early
YouTube days.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Early YouTube days were something else. They sure were, they
were something.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
And also to go viral, you just needed like a million, right,
a million?
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Do you remember?
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Yeah, a couple hundred thousand. Sure, we say that we go.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
Million every week we go viral, and we don't get
any money for that.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Mac.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
One of the earliest viral videos out there is the
Evolution of Dance.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
This came out in six.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
So this is impressive that someone was able to do this,
and like, as a first time watch, it's fun, It's
not very funny. Didn't change my life. Kind of forgot
about this video till you just brought it up now,
so I would say, IDK.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
So I recently when I pulled all these up, I
watched all of these and I watched this guy and
I'm like, all right, yeah, doesn't think but no, the
people in the crowd were just like they were excited
by music. The next one up here from twenty oh
six shoes Chez Sills.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
I loved shoes. I referenced shoes quite a lot for
a couple of years. Didn't change my life, and it
certainly hasn't lived on.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
If you're referencing it for years, it sounds like it
did change your life. Two years, two years of your
life were referencing shoes.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
Like lo on the reference list. I'm gonna go lol
on shiz.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Okay, so you're doing the voice right now. You fucking
referenced it for two years. It sounds like it changed
your life.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
It's an LOL.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
Maybe by the way, you can staple stamp, remove veto
at the end. Maybe after you see all these I
have about a dozen. Maybe after you see all of these,
by the way, they're all from before twenty ten, maybe
you might say to yourself, you know what, that did
change my life. The next one up here is maybe
one of the best sound clips of all time. Everyone
gets to hear it once a year, and that is.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Yeah, that Leprechaun video was all tied.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
It's gonna live forever. It's gonna live forever, And just.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
The screenshot that you're putting in the tier is still mimable.
You still see it all the time. You're right, that
is gonna live forever.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
That's a good one, forever and ever, Like every single
part of it might just be a crackhead.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
And then the drawing they actually put on the news
is preposterous.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
That could be and I'll find out by the end
of this the best viral video of all time.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
That was some police sketch. I has got that job
without ever thinking he'd have to sketch anything. And then
the first thing he got was Leprechaun and he's like, oh,
I can't do that.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
The next one up here, mac is one that I
often think about because of how confident the person is
and then the noise that they point out.
Speaker 1 (31:25):
There, well, it sounds like you during sex.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
I've read.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
I'm finished.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
This, of course is the Newslady trying to demonstrate how
to squash grapes to make wine. And also she only
follows like a foot and a half. Like the fact
that she got the wind knocked out of her. Well,
she broke two ribs. What are you talking about? She
broke two ribs. I do think this one gets forgotten
about a little bit, but it will live on forever.
(32:09):
That is that is pro show.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
The next one up here went on for many years.
People remembered what the URL link was to not click
on it after a while, and that was being rickrolled.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
I spent the better part of my four years in
college trying to rickroll anyone and everyone.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
I knew this changed your life. Fun.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
Rickrolling changed my life. And the first time I got
rick rolled, I was like, what just happened? I didn't
even know what happened. I had no idea what happened.
I was like, what, it's like Michael Scott. It's like
Michael Scott try to get people with the joke. It's
the same situation.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Max sat back and his Sharon just said, Am I dead?
Speaker 2 (32:47):
That I die?
Speaker 1 (32:49):
Am I even around?
Speaker 2 (32:53):
What's up? Uh? Literally the first day it happened to me,
I spent the whole day trying to pass on the rickroll.
It changed my life and I got creative with it,
as did the all of the internet. I would still
if I got rickroll today, I'd laugh at it. It's
great change my life. All right?
Speaker 3 (33:10):
How about this next one that I believe is one
of the most overrated of all time.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Charlie bit me, Charlie bet may I have referenced that
more than shoes probably over the years.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Charlie changed your life too.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
Charlie bet may Oh, I'd say lol, I'd say lol,
for Charlie bitmay.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
I mean they must have been on Allen at least
forty times.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
They actually ended up on Tosh I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
I mean, also, so this is from what year? Was
this one from? This is from twenty oh seven? Twenty eight?
What are we looking at here? Charlie bit my fingers?
Twenty oh seven. So these two kids now are of
the age where they can probably go out to bars soon,
or maybe they're in high school, and like the kid
in the front who bit the finger, can just like
(33:52):
go up to.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Girls and be like, hey, that's this move.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
He just bites their fingers.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
I'm Charlie.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
Yeah, shows the video that's me.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
Yeah, I'll bite your finger. Imagine that as a pickup line.
I bet you could try and use that too, I
don't think so. They'll look at you be like that
video is from twenty oh seven and you're pushing forty.
Come on, that's that's like a romy and Michelle claiming
that they invented post it notes. They're like, oh, I'm
Charlie from Charlie bit my finger. That's no way that's true.
(34:21):
First off, you don't have a British accent, and second, you.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
Are a very state side after I bit my brother's finger.
Speaker 3 (34:29):
Although, so that's what Romy and Michelle two should be.
They should claim that they are viral stars from their childhood.
We just wrote the sequel to Romy and Michelle.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
They could claim they were those two girls singing Nicki
Minaj you know Ma or no that just sing meg
a trainer.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
They're also on Alan Boom boom boom boom boom bass,
got that super bass boom boom boom.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
I think everyone in our list was on Ellen at
one point.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
Hey, mac lad, So this is why I think changed
my life. Is higher than gonna live forever. This is
gonna live forever. It's referenced by anyone and everyone ever.
We've referenced this on the podcast a hundred times, whether
by saying Brittany or an insert name here. I'd probably
use it once a week. This has changed my life.
(35:15):
I'll use it all the time.
Speaker 3 (35:16):
Should we put it on here twice and have it
in both tears? Well, we can put it in all
the tears if you want. They had what it was
a four minute video. It was a two and a
half four minute video. I can't think of the exact time,
but they really go to and they were ahead of
the times too, because I think it was at some
point everyone's.
Speaker 1 (35:34):
Like, maybe we should leave Brittany alone.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
I did stumble upon It was when Craig Ferguson was
stepping down as the late show host, and as everyone
else is just ripping into Brittany. You know, you have
your Lennos, you have your Lettermans, They're all you know,
they're all taking aim at Brittany.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
What Craig Ferguson did instead is he went on the
stage and told the story about when he wanted to
kill himself on Christmas Eve, saying that people have issues.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
Yeah, a lot of notable people have issues.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
So shout out, Craig Ferguson.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
A lot of people have issues.
Speaker 1 (36:10):
Hey, mac let me.
Speaker 3 (36:16):
I had to call out the music, don't sing too much.
I had to pull the music out so we don't
get flagged. I bet he sits around looking at coffee.
Speaker 2 (36:23):
Was a big part of my college life as well.
I don't know if he changed my life. But you
hear Chocolate Rain, that foot gets tapping, you start singing it.
I think Chocolate Rain is gonna live forever. Chocolate Rain
was was There's still like no videos like Chocolate Rain.
It's impossible to reproduce a Chocolate Rain type of thing.
(36:44):
That's a once in a life.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
Well, didn't Doctor Pepper hire him to do a version
of Doctor Pepper but from Chocolate Rain?
Speaker 1 (36:51):
So they can't duplicate it.
Speaker 2 (36:52):
But I mean how it happened originally, you know, that's
there's never another Taison day.
Speaker 3 (36:58):
Also, whenever that keyboard starts, I'm like, there is so
much going on right now.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
It's like, but no, no, no, no, no, no, no
chocolate Matt, keyboard Cat, keyboard cat kind of steak school.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
I'm not a keyboard cat guy. It's not for me.
It's not for me. I don't know if it ever
made me laugh.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
So this stinks, I'd say it stinks. Wow, keyboard Cat,
change the internet for you to say it stinks. Yeah, wow, wow,
wow wow. How about this little song bitch?
Speaker 2 (37:34):
I like Turtles. This is still funny every time I
watch it.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
This is still funny. The whole thing, the face paint
fifteen seconds is his you.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Know, undeveloped sort of talk speech. Everything about this video
is funny. It makes me laugh still to this point,
I still say I like Turtles.
Speaker 1 (37:58):
I mean I say that every day change my life.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
This video changed my life, changed your life. It's gotta
live forever as well. But that this video change.
Speaker 3 (38:05):
So you want to duplicate this one as well? Yes, okay,
so we need to start putting these into our tiers.
You get one duplicator that you can put one thing
into two different things. And then, oh, I also wanted
to put this in here. I want to call it
a Mario Maker. That mid tier. You can put a
new tier either at the top, the bottom or in
the middle.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
Insert a tier.
Speaker 3 (38:24):
You can insert a tier, all right, write that one
down so we don't forget it or just use it
right now. I don't give a shit. Oh you can
make one. You can do a you can do a
Mario Maker and say combine the top two into one.
Speaker 2 (38:38):
Yeah, I would, but I would. I wouldn't put Leprechaun
into change my life.
Speaker 3 (38:43):
No, but you can put one above called gonna live
forever and it changed my life. Okay, we'll just keep
that in our head. I'm not gonna visually do it
because it's gonna take me too much time. Hey Mac,
Also on Zombie Kid, just the fifteen seconds of l
we're standing here with so and so dressed like a zombie.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
What do you gotta say?
Speaker 2 (39:03):
I like turtles?
Speaker 1 (39:04):
All right? Back to you.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
My two favorite kid cut TOOS three actually is that
the little ginger kid as well, and he I forget
what word he keeps saying, probably whatever, whatever the hell
he says. And then also the like kindergarten kid that
they cut to and they asked him, I was.
Speaker 1 (39:22):
First, how are you feeling, I'm okay, and he just
starts crying.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
That kills me.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
That's a good one.
Speaker 3 (39:29):
My favorite, I don't even know where, like the actual
viral clip is. I saw it in one of those
news compilations of a weather guy doing something. He's giving
information and then a kid in the back and he goes.
Speaker 1 (39:40):
What's it to you? Wed a boy.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
That's a good one.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
That's a good one.
Speaker 3 (39:48):
Another one that I think is a little overrated is
David at the Dentist.
Speaker 2 (39:51):
Yeah, David, after dentist after dentist. This was the This
created a lot of copycats, not copycats, just people started.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
People started drugging their kids.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
I want to have seen a lot of you since
I do remember this being kind of the first one.
It made me laugh. I think it's an Lol. I
agree it is a little overrated though.
Speaker 3 (40:09):
And then finally, I think the first video that brought
us into the the auto tune, the news type of stuff,
or maybe it was already happening, and this is the
big one that broke out, and it's Anton Dobson.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
Anton Dobson, Hoija kids, Hija wife. This one didn't change
my life, but it's gonna live forever. It's gonna live.
I actually think, didn't Ellen even hire this guy for stuff?
Speaker 1 (40:32):
I'm pretty sure Ellen did a lot of things.
Speaker 2 (40:34):
Yeah, Hija kids, Hija wife's all time. Everyone uses that
all the time too. In reference to this, You're so dumb,
you are so dumb.
Speaker 3 (40:45):
Moving forward, Mario Maker could be you either build a
new tier or you can flip flop a tier.
Speaker 2 (40:52):
Okay, all right, yeah, yeah, I mean there are those
top two tiers are elite one way or the other.
Speaker 3 (40:57):
Do you want to Mario Maker it and flip the tear?
I think, look at that, Look at that. It took
me one click. Whoa Mario Maker.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
I like that. I like that. Man.
Speaker 3 (41:11):
All right, So our final tier of September, and keep
in mind October might be Octeerber, but let's start at
the bottom with its stinks.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
Keyboard Cat, keyboard Cat. I don't have any use for
keyboard cat.
Speaker 1 (41:25):
Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum.
Speaker 2 (41:29):
I think it.
Speaker 3 (41:29):
You know, it did a lot for videos personally, sure,
I DK I don't know. The guy who danced on stage, Yeah,
it was.
Speaker 2 (41:38):
It was cool. The one time l O L shoes ses.
Speaker 3 (41:42):
Charlie bit my finger, and then the kid who went
to the dentist and was Hi balls in the dentist.
Then Mac flipped the tears. He Mario making it. I'm
gonna put a sound effect in there after, maybe someone
clopping down like a hammer or something.
Speaker 1 (42:00):
Wait, what are you think for your sound effects?
Speaker 2 (42:01):
I punched the tear up, you know, like he's punching.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
That's good too, Okay, so then Mac flipped the tears.
Gonna live forever is.
Speaker 1 (42:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (42:14):
I say yeah every time I hear that, because you
know what, in my eyes, I see this little drawn
leprechaun sitting in a tree.
Speaker 2 (42:20):
It's great, it's great.
Speaker 3 (42:21):
They dedicated so much time to that story too. It's
a well crafted story. Honestly, it's funny.
Speaker 2 (42:30):
Without the visual, and then when they cut to the drawing,
it takes it to a whole other level.
Speaker 1 (42:36):
It could just be a crackhead. What is this next one?
Speaker 2 (42:41):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (42:41):
This is the every you know what's weird is that's
my safe work, that entire thing. Oh then we got
(43:05):
this fucking guy let me Anton Dobson and then changed
my life. Mac flipped it.
Speaker 1 (43:13):
