Speaker 1 (00:02):
Well, come back to another episode of All give me this.
I'm your host. Kevin Pop Yes, not Kevin No. Actually,
I don't think the film tooks he holds up at all. No,
I don't buy the premise, and the great Dustin Hoffman
never stops being a man in drag. The fact that
anyone buys him as a woman is just too much
(00:22):
displieved for me to suspend. Fund yourself. I'm sorry. I
know I'm in the minority and everyone else is in
love with this film. It's superb fine, I get it,
truly good for you, but the premise is performance garbage.
But I digress. Craig, you're not in your head. You
agree it all a little bit oh weird hill to
die on? Yeah, right, Only forty years after the release,
(00:50):
I rewatched it and I was like, this is horrible. Yes,
thank you for that. It is a bizarre hill to
die on. And enough of digression. Let's meet Kama Shower
in a particular order. Let's check in with Christop Armovers
two European Honeymoon review. Big a funny you say that
because I'm scrolling through pictures right now, not on my honeymoon.
(01:13):
The honeymoon was great, it was perfect love Italy. But
more importantly, I keep forgetting to say this, and I
want to tell you, guys, And I'm sure you've all
I'm sure Craig and Mark have done this once already.
But I got a wordle in one the other day.
What I was thinking about one, you just guessed what
the word was going to be. That's what I'm trying
to pull here. This here, this, here, it is what
(01:36):
you can pull once from the past. No, because I
knew I wanted, I knew I wanted to show you, guys.
Is that something Kevin again? Italy? Beautiful? But how about this?
Is that? Mark? Do you are? Is that impressive? I'm impressed.
I don't know if that's really impressive. That was a
(01:57):
good guess, But that's not the skill of the game.
I've never I've never got in one. Carla got in
one on that same day. No, can I circle all
of you back to that's technically more important than your
(02:18):
trip to your eye like a big pizza pie. Technically
it's more recent. But dear Lord, you have a life
experience that looked like one of the greatest trips of
a lifetime. And this is a life experience. This it was,
(02:41):
it was wonderful. I you know what, Listen, we've all
been on vacations, we've all done things before. Italy is
the only place where I thought, I want to go
back there as soon as possible. Yeah, maybe Marco is
the same way. It's like, this place is fucking incredible. Yeah,
it's it's crazy incredible. Um and lastly, uh, thoughts on
tutsie have you seen it? Oh my, there's Jack Gonzalez
(03:13):
Ruth a little d favorite Italian dishtion one. Wow, yep,
this it's difficult hard Okay, No, this is ordering. Yeah,
this is what I'm ordering every time an Italian restaurant.
I'm going to get the linguini. That's linguini with clams um.
(03:36):
And it's like in like an olive oil garlic situation,
not a creamy situation, not a tomato situation, otherwise known
as sauce. Those have been falling along the word situation
could also be swamped out for sauce, could be subbed,
could be subed. Oh I don't like that. You don't
like the Italian like that Grandma's Sunday gravy learned what
(04:00):
that was the other day. This woman's like I'm making
Sunday gravy, and I was like, what is that? My
world was not full of gravy growing up. Dr Gagliardi
away in when it well. Then she described it to
me and I was like, oh goddamn, because I thought
it was like I remember moving to Chicago and people
ordering biscuits and gravy, and I love biscuits, but good God,
(04:22):
don't throw all of this stuff, like what, don't make them? What? Um,
give me just the buttermilk. I don't know what it's
like in Miami whatever. I had never heard of it.
It was something new, something a little disturbing. So when
I heard Sunday gravy, that's what I was thinking. And
(04:44):
then she described it to me, and I was like, oh, ship,
give me that. Yeah, there's a lot less flower involved
in the creation of these Grandma's Sunday grades. And there's
like a whole pork chop is disintegrated in in hers
in hers, whole pork chops as degraded in there, the
chop part, but incredible disintegrated situation. You should be a
(05:09):
food writer or you should get a food writer either.
It is really funny. Sorry, I don't take the time
but just really funny that when when Craig said that
Carla got the same one I did a word your
actually was that's fun up. That means something, And I
don't know if it's good or bad, but it means
(05:31):
I don't worried for your marriage, for both of your marriages.
I don't know why. I'm a word girl something. It
means something. Wow, it means something. I love wordle I
love spaghetti with clams in a garlic situation. Just disintegrate
(05:52):
into the situation. And if you want to put some meat,
disintegrate it in there. It sounds delicious. Oh I'm I'm oh,
whoa wait? Backed by popular demand? What is this with
his boat House on a Lake review? Here's Craig Kaikowski
Kakaw Boathouse on a Lake. I'll tell you what, if
(06:19):
you want to build a boat house, the best place
to do it is on a lake, because yeah, I've
I've seen boat houses like a couple of miles inshore
and they do not work as well. You can definitely
store the boat in there, but getting the boat into
(06:40):
the water is the crucial part. And uh so I
think the boat house needs to be on the lake
or or the ocean or somebody of water in order
to work. Otherwise it's gonna be a real fucked up sauce.
Hey use them interchangeably. Yes, you did, you prove the point.
(07:03):
There's Mark Gagliardi, Hi strange mark on your pants. What
is the origin of the term Jerry rigged? Uh? The uh?
There was? Wasn't it Germany? Like it was Germans could
like figure out how to duct tape something together. I
don't know, Like I assume that the term comes from Germans. Um.
(07:27):
Very industrious terms come from Germans. Um. Calling it gravy
comes from Germans Um. No, we can actually just to
go back to that before. We absolutely call red sauce
in my family gravy. Always have. We make the Sunday gravy,
and yes, my dad will fill it with meat at
the beginning of the day and it will all have
(07:47):
disintegrated into a delicious meat sauce by the Yeah. Yeah,
I'm team gravy um. But Jerry rigging um was was
invented by a German named Jerry I believe, if I'm
remembering this correctly, he was the first person to ever
take duct tape and use it on something besides a duct.
That's correct. I knew you'd have it. And last, but
(08:10):
you can completely kiss my grids. If you think of leaves,
it's James Heeny jingle, Johnny James. What was the most
memorable aspects of being on the set of that recent
indie film you did? I mean, there's a lot, but
the big thing was one day we had a snake
wrangler on set because they need to make sure as
we ran through grass that was almost to our waist,
(08:33):
that there was no rattlesnakes there. And they went through
found yours and they did it with a black light
at night and they were shining it to see everything.
They didn't find any snakes, but they found scorpions and
they kept the scorpion. And here's was even crazier on
set because there was an animal. There's somebody that represents
the safety of animals, so they couldn't just kill the
(08:54):
scorpion like it should be killed. I had to keep
it and then set it free afterwards. But then after
they caught that one scorpion, they said it was all
clear and we could run through the area. In short,
what what state was this area in that you have scorpion?
Scorpions and snakes, and I don't want to scare anybody.
(09:15):
But it was in Malibu, so there are scorpions not
only in California, but in Los Angeles County. Swanky Malibu. Yeah. Yeah,
this India I'm doing also had a rattlesnake wrangler. We
were at the Disney ranch up in your Santa Clarita
Lancaster area and and we did find or he I
(09:39):
certainly found none, probably from a lack of looking ahead. Craig,
did you do You worked at the Disney ranch with
many times, so any times I remember. I remember that
one morning, I know I'm taking it too much time
we have a whole show. No no. I pulled up
to I was doing a commercial, um, and I get
It's like six am and there's Craig. I was like,
oh ship, Craig and Ireland's commercial together. I'm like, dude,
(10:02):
what are you doing here? Is like drunk history. I
was like, it was a real it was a real letdown.
And then I said, snake safe. I couldn't kill him, right. Yeah.
It was very strange. Um. And underneath the house where
everyone had just been walking around and sitting on the
(10:23):
deck of this you know, built house, on the Disney
ranches where they shoot a lot of TV and movie
and commercials of course. Um, and yeah, that's it was
cool under there. And this sizeable like a almost five footer,
the aforementioned Carla Kakowski everyone five, that's almost my height exactly,
(10:45):
just poked its head out from underneath this house just
like that. I had five fingers for a face. Oh
my god, being this is so much fun. It come
(11:06):
right to my eyeballs. Yes, well, yeah they really stand.
But if you were lying down, I think we have
a better point. Um, can someone put the snake next
to Jackie most he's lying down, it'll be funny. Let's
(11:27):

the universe? Stay classy, pat, Sorry, Jim, Um, we're gonna
need you to clean out your desk and well I'm
just about finished with this. Hold on, I've got my
(12:52):
microscope and I'm looking at little tiny Jim. Jim, we're
gonna need that. Yeah, thanks, Larry. Uh oh, well, what
are you doing. You're taking all my These are my

no more research. We've got it all you're done what.
(13:13):
We appreciate everything you've done for the institute. In fact,
you're my personal favorite. Don't tell the others, But as
Larry said, we're going to give you about nine months
minutes to box it all up with these apple boxes.
I've got years of research that I don't think they'll
fit in all these we got it all this. We're
(13:37):
turning this space into a spirit Halloween rental. Oh what
that can't be right? That the upset we've we've got.
We've got all the information, we figured out, all the
all the all the questions we've ever had about the
universe have been answered thanks to you. We went out
really far and we discovered everything that was in a distance.
(13:59):
But I wanted to start looking. Have you seen the
end of the First Men in Black movie? Three times? Uh?
It does host But let me ask you this, what
are you gonna do with all your free time? Do
you think? Just a quick question. I always wondered what
you would do if you wanted here nineteen hours a day. Oh,
I don't know. Maybe I've always considered. When I was
(14:22):
in high school, it was either science or football. Maybe
it's not too late to get into football. It's never. Alright, kid,

Alrighted oh yeah, right there on the back of your jersey. Alright,

rest of us and hit the guy in front of you. Okay, guys,
big one, Okay, scientists, thank you for gathering here for
the World Scientists Summit, the w s S, as you
(16:41):
all know, the World Scientists Summit. Thank you, Thank you well. Um,
really interesting news coming out of California. It's all on
this folder here. Moron, how's that? Do you just said?
(17:04):
Interesting news California? And I just thought that sort of
flies in the face of reality as we know it.
Science scientists can actually be really funny too. Yeah, we
can be pretty goofy. We can be pretty silly. Watch this, Hey,
who's on first? All right now, listen, listen, there's a
there's an official WSS open mic after the conference. Sometimes
(17:27):
I get really crazy and goofy and I order just
like a sandwich at whatever the easiest sandwich to make
at a restaurant is. But then I asked them to
put you know, bacon or avoca. I asked him to
add just one thing on top. I get so crazy,
So goofy. So we can save that for the talent
show and open mic after the conference. What's the news, Well,
(17:51):
it's all done. We can wrap it up. We've learned
everything there is to know about the universe. Yeah, save
it for open mind this one. Thank you. This is
I'm not joking. Ask me any question. I have the
answer right here. Anybody, what have you been working on?
(18:13):
What's your research? Well, I'm sorry question, um? How long
until the universe collapses upon itself in what they call
the coladicalismic events? Well, an, what is the word I'm
looking for? Thank you? It should eventually contract and explode.
(18:37):
What is that going to happen? It's gonna happen in
two hundred thousand years. That's faster than I thought. I
not a question. Who's God? Yes? Oh yes, yes, yes,
good one. See here's here? Oh interesting, Ellen de generous
(18:58):
Jesus Christ. Not what we're thinking it would be. Wow,
he thought that. I was that you thought that God?
Oh God? I was just thinking, He's going to say, Ellen,
de generous? Well, because it is all knowing? What up? Okay? Okay? Science, sciences, science,
(19:19):
science is real in the universe, is what I was
why was God hanging out with George W. Bush at
that football game? Then? Yeah? Yeah, what you got there?
Let's see, Um does this say photo up? It says
a photo opportunity. I assume an opportunity for photographic And
(19:43):
why didn't God compensate her her writers? Accordingly? Yeah? Can
I is that the that hard copy of all the
information right there? Yeah? Is that the only? Is that
the only one? Well? And I have it all in
this thumb drive that I keep with me at all times.
At all times. Theoretically we could destroy it to keep
(20:03):
ourselves employed. Right there? Now, God didn't pair her rider's
I want to go on this train and thought like,
theoretically if we all surrounded you right now, tackled you
to the ground and uh, and still that drive from
(20:24):
you send it from and Mike Jim, Yeah, there's still
forty five more minutes left of the conference. You can
bring your material. I was told there would be a
Halloween costumes here. I'm just seeing a lot of lab coats. Yah,
it's a big hit this year. Did you not want
to go as a scientist. I've been a scientist before.
It's always fun, you know, to get you to get
(20:46):
a lab coat, you know, maybe a stethoscope. Yeah about
these tesla coils that that might be, you know, heavier
than I want to carry around, But I'm looking for
something scarier. Yeah, what do you got mine? What are
you thinking? Politician? Yeah? Do you have a politician? Alf,
(21:06):
we do? We have a democrat, republican, libertarian? What are
you looking for? Let me go as a libertarian? What
what is that outfit? It feels like it feels like
whatever you want, whatever you want, that's exactly right, truly
up to you. In fact, you're you're kind of in
costume right now. Oh so people will get right away.
I've gone as a happy Halloween everybody, as you know.
(21:29):
Again I did the costume contest. Yeah yeah, I'm handing
out awards right now. All right, Chuck, Chuck, you get
third place for Frank Stone than they're pas. That's a
nice change of pace from going as the monster. Yeah,
yeahs a doctor. That was genius. It really was that
(21:52):
lab coat. Alright, Barb, you get second place for ursula.
Oh taking voices, thank you so much? Okay, and um
and number one goes to goes to Bill for the
cargo cargo shorts and uh tink top thank you. Maybe
(22:16):
you can answer the question now, Bill, what you were
dressed as since everyone's kind of been wondering and you
got first place. Well, I think since I won, it
speaks for itself. Right. Let's guess you dressed as a
winner cargo shark and a tank top. Yeah? Did you
go as I don't know, riff raff? Good? No, just
(22:39):
general lowercase riff raff. I thought you meant riff raff
from Rocky horror picture show different describe people that you're
undesirable raff? Are you going as massively unemployable Chicago frat
boy in the summer? Good guess? God give me the fuller.
(23:03):
Listen listening animals, animals, answers in there that you might
not want to think about that, think about that. All
the information is in this boulder and in this gun drive.
You might not like what you see. That's why. Yeah,
way to not make your arguments scientists. Yeah, you know what,
(23:24):
I hadn't consider that join us save all of our jobs.
But is it just for the job saving? Because I
can get into the job. I'm thinking about playing professional basketball.
So in Canada I did one session, Yeah, Canada, I
did one session of football in Canada. It didn't hurt bad.
I'm just saying covered. I mean, if I'm not looking
(23:46):
into a microscope and saying I don't know what the
hell I could do? What you could do that in
other fields, like Mike, I don't know this. Microsoft doesn't
use that. If that's what you were gonna say? All right, everybody,
so we we we want to get rid of all
the answers, everything we learned just to keep our jobs.
(24:08):
Is that? Is that right? Not just to keep our jobs.
The world's gonna lose all mystery if there are no
more and if there, if we have all the answers,
there'll be no more questions. Oh of course that too?
Who I mean? That was? That was the second reason?
Shot up Padrick. You're being selfish? No, come on, look
(24:29):
good guys. Come on, does the world really want to
know everything? Is it better to not know some things?
Do you really want to know what's in a hot dog?
Or that God is Ellen degenerous? Huh I guess I
guess not. Well how about this? Why don't we pass
this folder around, this file and you look up one
(24:52):
answer to one question you might have, and then we'll
throw it all away. Anybody wants, every wants the opportunity
to maybe learned something about the universe before I'll go first,
give me that folder. Oh Jesus Christ, whoa Okay, okay,
who's next? My turn? My turn? Well, this can't be right.
(25:16):
It's all right, this can't be right. Okay, let me
let me see. Let me see that. Okay, all right,
so it is an infinite amount of turtles? Interesting? Okay?
Anybody else? Yeah, yeah, let me see that. All right?
Ah was okay? So you two wanted you had the
(25:41):
same Bernie question. Yeah, that's right. Science, Science, prove that
is a solid movie. Houston. H We have a problem, Houston,
We have a problem. Could you be more general? Well,
you know, you know we have some issues up here.
(26:01):
Our ship it will not be able to make the
descent back into Earth at its current state, and you
were going to send us the tools that we needed
to fix it. Now now you're saying space program Science
is getting shut down, and and where does that leave us,
because because we need to re enter Earth, you know,
we have an infinite amount, not an infinite we have
(26:24):
a do you though, do you though need to re
enter atmosphere? Yeah? We have. Are you not happy? Up there,
Lieutenant listen up. I don't. It's not about about me
being personal. It's not about my personal life. I've made mistakes.
(26:45):
I've made mistakes opening up to you before Houston, and
you made me feel like this is an intimate conversation
when I know that I'm on an intercom to the
entire control floor, just the two of us. What do
you want to say? Well, it's getting hard to be
(27:06):
up here. All theory is she said it, She's complained
and sorry the fuck rogers. I'm sorry someone had a
bad sandwich order. Some people are listening. Thank god I
didn't give any real details. List that has seen one
(27:31):
scene two comes from listener Laban Chapel or Chapelle, who wrote,
Hello Alchemist, longtime listeners, second time email or I'll admit
I pretty much have to listen to the pod solo
since I never know how the scenes will go and
what crazy as ship y'all will come up with or
say mm hmm. For that, I thank you. Don't worry, though,
(27:54):
I do share with some of my longtime friends that
share my demented sense of humor in very judging anyway.
Being born and raised in the low country of South
Carolina and having my home in Charleston for seventeen years,
and Charleston being such a hotbed for COVID relocators. I
(28:14):
thought a great scene suggesting would be your take on
how the South is handling all of the cultures moving
in on it with nothing but love and respect. Laban Chap,
just stop staring at that other table over there. They're
gonna look over, they're gonna see you staring at him. Well,
(28:36):
I've just never seen anything like it. It's all right
there people too. They're just people right right, but they're
not from here, and I just lets all get out. Well,
then go ask them. You'll look, we were to get
a person just like that, Mom and dad, I'm gonna
get a bunch of Piersons on my face. You are not.
(28:59):
You will not get a piercing. I'm you're not getting
a fedora and you're not getting a piercing. It looks
good now, darlings. Yeah, y'all need to spend a little
more time eating your grids, unless time staring at a
new night. Well. I hate to say it, honey, but
(29:20):
you were setting a pretty terrible example just staring that
table down like that. I'm gonna go excuse me, ma'am.
I ordered. I ordered the biscuits and gravy, and uh
I expected to get more of a more of an
Italian American sauce thing going on with these with these biscuits. Well, well, honey,
(29:42):
I don't know what to tell you. Around here, gravy
is thick, beige and chunky. Okay, okay, so gravy is
not synonymous with sauce. Gravy is synonymous with gravy around here, sugar, Well,
I'm from I'm from Queen's Queens that in England. No,
(30:04):
no Queens New York story. Come on, oh whoa, well,
well whoa yeah, yeah, I came down here to get
rid of that. You get away from the COVID yeah,
and enjoy some cobblestone streets and then shrimp. That's us.
That's not not to not to reduce your beautiful historic
(30:26):
city to no. No, no, I mean, look at our flags.
The flags are made up of the cobblestone streets and shrimps.
That's us. Well, there you go. Anyway, this is this
is delicious. It's just not what I was expecting. Mm hmmm,
well maybe you were expecting something like um oh why
(30:46):
don't I offer you this, get the funk out of
our town before we throw you out of this fucking town?
What something like that? Or maybe it's a sweet teaper darling.
Can I seat you in the back? Yeah, of course
I appreciate that coming back. Okay, Hi, sure, hi, Darline.
You know we love having you working here, work in
(31:08):
the front. You're so good in from I'm a people person.
It's wild to me that I would hear such disgusting
language come out of your mouth, especially to one of
our lovely, lovely patrons. Oh did you hear that? I
heard that? I sure did, I sure did so hard. Yeah,
shouldn't you have such a good hearing? I gotta say,
you know, it's my job to keep everyone doing well
(31:31):
at theirs, and we could use a little more niceness
from you. Now you understand that he's well, he's not
from here, right, Yeah, I do understand. See the thing
about being in the South, which is now making me
figure that maybe you've been a liar all the time,
because if you were truly from the South, you know
that whether we are auditioned out a compliment or this,
(31:54):
it's going to sound exactly the same. And we're gonna
say it with a smile. Baby. We sure you're oh yeah,
and a liar who's from somewhere else, which you know
could be true and I appreciate. Or you're a true
Southerner who's going against going against your roots and messing
(32:14):
up my your restaurant. Well, it certainly is one of
those two. And I got some tables to get back to.
And excuse me, miss miss you's got Hamburg's, It's got Hamburg's, Darling,
this is my table. He's asking you a question. I
(32:38):
moved to downtown uh, Charleston, you know, to get away
from the uh, the COVID. You know you's never been
to Pittsburgh. Now, thank you all for meeting me here
in my home for some tea and conversation, just friends
and family. I wanted to bring up a couple of
(32:59):
issues that I've noticed, maybe you've noticed. It feels like
there are some people who are mm hmmm staying here
for too long. I'll put it that way. Anybody else
here those same thoughts because I'm feeling I'm feeling I'm
feeling I'm feeling evil. And maybe if I'm the only
one feeling these thoughts, then then then I gotta work
on myself. I mean I noticed it at the tire shop.
(33:23):
I'm not gonna lie. I noticed that the tire shop.
I was Uh, this family came in with with a
car that, uh that was not that the license plate
was not a South Carolina plate and uh this car.
M I'm gonna go out on a limb and say
this car was foreign, Like, where are we gonna get
foreign tires for a car here? Anybody else? Okay, we're
(33:49):
the only two are you talking about? Oh no, no, no,
but it's no no. Minnesota is is is part of
the part of this country. Uh well, we we do
have ten thousand lakes, but uh blah, but no, no,
I think that I think the tires of you God
will work just fine. But but if I if I'm
(34:10):
stepping in your way, then uh then uh oh you know, hey,
feel free to send me on my way. Wow, you're
real nice. Oh oh, I don't know about that. Oh
you know, I'll tell you it's nice here in uh
in Charleston. You know heard that it uh that you
(34:31):
can't get COVID down here, so you know, just move
the whole family down from St. Paul. You're messing with me.
Because I heard Sugar over at the restaurant once. She
once told me. She told me, she said, you know,
and we all know down here in the South, if
someone's being real nutsty, they could either really lock you
or really hate you. You hate me? Is that what
this is? That was just all about you come in
(34:53):
here asking for some weird tires. Come here, you bet
you bet you? No, no, I batman, No, no, no, no,
we don't allow gambling down here. I want you out
of my tire shot. No, no, this isn't this isn't
passive aggressive no. Uh, we just love those tires. And
then uh, I'll get on my way. Sugar. Can I
(35:17):
ask you a question? Sure thing, Darlene. On my way
home last night, did I did I see you and interrupt?
What would you mind doing your roll ups while you
asked me this question? Of course, happy to thank you
so much, appreciate that. Did I see you walking out
(35:39):
of the movie theater with a gentleman last night? I
mean you might have if you were if you were
if you were a sneaky if you were a sneaky snake,
or just going off from my evening walk as I do.
Is good for the hunt because I h yeah, sometimes Maverick.
I saw Top Gun Maverick in imax. Oh yeah, I'll
(36:02):
tell you. And Banga Main and we're lucky to get
maybe two movies or summer and uh oh to see this,
to see those planes up there on the screen was
was impressive. It really was. It was it was. It
was a highlight of it. I wish it was all
plane action. I didn't need anything out of the plane.
(36:24):
I just wanted it to be zoom zoom, zooming around
wound up in there at that air Oh yeah, yeah,
I'll tell you why. He just seemed like trouble, is
all I'm saying. Well, Frankly, Frankly, Darlene, it's not a
lot of your business, to be quite. Frank's who I'm meeting,
(36:49):
who I decided to say yes to when they asked
me to go see a movie in imax? Did he
absolutely kill my neck? Wasn't necessary to see that movie? Imax? No,
it wasn't. Did I have a good time with that gentleman?
I kind of did. I kind of did it. At
least you didn't kiss him or anything. Wow, if you're
(37:09):
on a plat wide right here on on these two laps,
I wasn't say no, Okay, well, yeah, I like that.

bit of a I have to give you consent. I
have to make the move. I like that. I like that.
Um well, I'll just lean I'll just lean right in
(37:32):
and I'll give you, give you a big old peck.
Did I tell you all the children in my time? Now,
let me get this straight. You proposing that we add
to our flag that is cobblestone and shrimp. You're saying
that we add a New York Yankees emblem, a crab
(37:56):
and and and all the types of things. Is that?
Is that what I'm on standing? Mayn Well? I reckon.
I think that it would be a pretty good idea
to to be more inclusive and put more things on
our flag make people feel at home, because homes where
the heart is. Yeah, you should put a put a
Promonti Brother sandwich on the flag because it's, uh, you know,
(38:17):
you get fries and slaw in the sandwich. It's uh,
it's real good. You know when I want you Distiller's
game downtown. Uh, you know it's you know, what are
those sandwiches? Breaking news? There's a new COVID hot spot
in the country, Charleston, Charleston. Everybody, if you are in
(38:40):
near or around Charleston, leave immediately on it. What they
say on what they just say on the news there
saying that we're a hot spot. Now, oh, a hot
spot like a like a like a like a nice
knight club that everybody wants to go to. I think
(39:01):
the yuppies are coming. I think that might have been
what the heads up was about. They're gonna gentrify. Oh,
Lord of mercy, I've been waiting for. I hope it's
not too startling. But I got hair dot pink, and
I got some pearsons. Look at why'd you would you
put all those staples in your face? Get over here, son,
(39:24):
you're called Piersons. Oh oh my wood, good well, I
don't know about this. I don't know if I can't
do any son of mine having pink hair and ear
rings and and lord knows after they I'm telling you, honey,
I'm telling you it's because of the flag. It's what
they did to the flag. Let him by, Yes, yes,
oh my god, don't get mad at me. It's it's
(39:47):
a newsboy cap. That's it. We are moving. We're gonna
go I don't know. I hear Minnesota people are nice. Robert,
come into my office. Listen. We hired you here at
Channel four News because of your compelling delivery and you're
(40:08):
impeccable addiction and non regional dialect. What we didn't hire
you for is to deliver in such a lacks of
daisical way. I think half of the town fell asleep. Robert. Now,
if this is a personal issue, because I have to
say this is not normal for you, this is a
(40:29):
personal issue, need to take some time off, then please
speak up. I would like some clarification as to the
issue is your most recent Your delivery at this five
o'clock news hour was so boring. I fell asleep. That
(40:50):
was the issue. So I know our viewers are absolutely
snoozing on this news and we had some hot sections
in for today. You're are you okay? So hey, you
do foosh ball tournament five minutes five, So you're saying
I didn't deliver it with enough uh energy, enough enough enough.
(41:11):
I need to say you were not the Robert Newcastle
that we hired. You were not the Robert Newcastle because
that Robert Newcastle is dead. Okay, hey, hey, you're Robert Newcastle. Right,
you read the local news here in Charleston. I was, oh,
(41:33):
forget about it. What happened? Someone broke my heart? Oh
that's awful. Yeah, oh yeah yeah yeah. Me me and
my friend here were you know, we're both recent transplants
here to Charleston. We watch you every night at six o'clock.
Oh yeah, it's uh. You's watched the news too. Yeah.
(41:57):
These guys the best here. It's those at sometimes the weather.
I gotta say it is a pleasure to me, all
of you. This is this is what this old news
ancher needed today, is just to mix it up and
and you know, be out here with the people, all
(42:18):
different types of people. Huh yeah, bro, it's uh certainly
beats spin in California at the height of this COVID
Right you said it. He certainly did. And that is
scene too. Seen three is from patron and comaniac Nicholas
(42:40):
mark Our, who made one of the last shows who
wrote Seen Criminal uses cameo to send out blackmail messages,
but only B and C tier celebrities as he has
to save money, let the budget impress and flow playball.
(43:01):
Nick Baby, I'll tell you I got a cameo. I
actually requested a cameo and paid for it and it
should be coming in today or tomorrow. I'm very, very excited.
I don't really want to tell you who it's from,
but it's a surprise for Tommy's birthday. Oh my gosh,
(43:21):
that's so sweet. He's going to be so excited if
it's a celebrity that he knows and loves. Oh my gosh,
that's so that's such a great gift. And thank you
this year for for thinking of one. I know he
was really disappointed when you didn't get him anything last year.
So well, you know, he's technically not my son, but
(43:42):
I want to raise him. I want to help raise him.
You know, I completely understand that you didn't. You know,
genetically did nothing to bring this child into the earth,
but you have been rearing him for the past seven years.
And you know to me when when you express it
to me like it's hurtful, but I can take it.
(44:04):
It's it's the frequency which you express not being his
father to him that I think you don't think that's
something he needs to know and know. Well, I think
it's crushing his spirit, Huh, I don't. I don't think
we should. Yeah, Hey, buddy, what Uh yeah, so thanks
(44:30):
for uh for joining us. We just had something real
quick to run by you. This this business of me
not being your biological father, uh and him actually being incarcerated.
I was curious, Uh I mentioning that too often? Am
I mentioning it? Not often enough? What is your takeaway
(44:54):
on this information? Well, I guess I haven't really thought
about it. But in the morning, you go breakfast, breakfast,
not my real son. Your dad's in jail, so like
that's how we start the day typically, and then jip school,
you go, hey, have a good day. I'm not your
father because your father made some poor choices and now
(45:15):
you ain't got time to start school. Yeah, you ain't
gonna see him. And then the last thing you say
to me before I go to bed is usually like,
I love you, but not as much as your real father.
But how much love can he show you if he's away?
So I don't know, it feels like a like about
the right amount? Mom? What are you balanced? Right, morning,
noon and night feeling good? I find it to be
absolutely dampening of the of the spirit. It's I find
(45:40):
it to be unnecessary. You know, you know that he's
not your biological father and pointing out you know what
would fix things. I think it would be like a
really cool birthday present. Since my birthday is tomorrow. It's
funny you should say that I wasn't connecting the two,
but if we need to, maybe this is a way
(46:01):
for me to begin the process of this transition for
me from being Captain Information to your loving thought. Sounds
good at me? Mom? What do you think? I I
loved every word that just came out of your mouth. Finally,
all right, let's say goodbye to Captain Information. He's dead.
He's not incarcerated, he's just dead. Yep, he's in life jail.
(46:26):
He is incarcerated in hell. Wow. Yeah, like so many. Uh,
this new version of me is going to be loving
and supportive, and I've got an incredible gift for you tomorrow.
I can't wait for you to see it. I'm so sorry.
I can wait for you to see it either. Tommy,
why don't you go ahead and go back to hanging
out with Tommy your friend? Hey, you want to hang
(46:52):
out with kids? His own name? Is that what you're
gonna have? No? I was going to say, I don't
really want to harp on the whole hell thing. That's
not really something that we've ever really taught him in
this family. I don't want to now. I feel like
it's all over the entertainment world. Things he watches, stuff
(47:13):
he studies in school, possibly even without being religious in anyway.
You know for sure he knows what it is and
you know absolutely, But to say that so many people
are lost in the jail of hell is I just
think sets someone up in a really uh Mr McGrath,
Mr Mark Mark, Yeah, yeah, hey here, I just want
(47:39):
to let you know a couple of things to do today. Yeah,
what's on the list? Bro, let's do it. Let's go.
You're playing tennis at noon, love tennis, rock and roll,
rock and roll. Um, You're having a tattoo removes at
two foot Yeah yeah, that one was a mistake, big mistake.
Big mistake. Can roll by end of the day. You
(48:02):
have you have a cameo you need to go. Oh,
I forgot you know what, Let's just knock the cameo
out now. You want to do that first? Yeah? Yeah, okay,
all right, So here's the information here. It's for a
birthday boy named Tommy. All right, Tommy the birthday boy. Yeahah, Warden, Warden,
(48:22):
let me use your phone. I gotta get a I
gotta get a cameo for my kid. You know, come on, Warden.
You know I've been on good behavior. Alright, alright, all right, Ah,
you should have enough in jail house funds to uh
to pay for them. Some of them are pretty expensive,
(48:42):
you know. I I got Tanya Harding from my uh
from my niece's UH bought mitzvah and uh and that
was price here that I expected. It was about for
a personalized green eating from Tanya Harding. Oh, non personalized.
(49:04):
But who are you thinking? Who are you thinking? I'm thinking,
Tim McGrath, Tim McGrath, I think that's but I guess
I'll have to change it because that's not gonna work.
Tim McGrath, Is there something similar that maybe you see
in my price range? It's been so long i've been
in here. Tim McGrath is out of your price range. Absolutely.
(49:25):
Tim McGraw's out of your price range. Mark McGrath also
out of your price range. But Tim McGrath, it says, um,
hey um, Mr McGrath, Um. Sorry, sorry to interrupt you
during lunch. It's just it makes me. Dave, your assistant, Um, you,
I can't believe I'm saving this you you got a
(49:47):
request for a cameo? Stoping. No, I'm serious, Tim, you
gotta request I'm sorry, Mr McGrath, you gotta request for
a cameo right right. I'm trying to even remember how
this works because it's been a while since we started,
and we signed up because you thought that was a
good idea. Yeah, look, you're your fame adjacent. It's what works,
(50:11):
like everybody's gonna everybody's It's like when when somebody goes
to the store and buys a copy of trans Morphers
instead of Transformers. You know what I mean. But I
knew this day would come. I knew this day would come.
You were right, congratulations. I told you you need assistant.
I told you needed an assistant. That's the other thing.
(50:33):
An intern as an assistant made a lot of sense
initially because I wasn't paying you six months. I am
paying you, granted it's a hundred dollars a week, but
I still feel like it's something. So look, Dave, it's me,
Um Dustin timber wake, Um. I don't think I need
an assistant anymore, dude. I'm just I'm a mechanic, and
(50:53):
I feel like it's not paying off the way you
But where am I gonna go? I just you were
so enthusiastic about the idea of being famous adjacent, and
I bought in. But nobody wants to hear from Dustin
timber Wake unless you know on drum up. Some Susan
Saran Rap said the same thing, and she kicked me out.
(51:20):
I don't want to let you go. I just can't
afford you. And Dave Growl said the same thing, and
he kicked me out. Elvis Priestly said the same thing,
and he kicked me out. Where am I gonna go? Fuck? Um, Look,
you can crash my place. I just don't need an
(51:41):
assistant anymore, or ever, I never did. I've worked. I'm
a mechanic with a weird name with a weird name. Hey,
thanks for coming by. How did you hear about the
I was looking for a new assistant. Did you see
it when I posted it online? Or I I just
looked out. I was looking through the phone book for
(52:04):
for names that seemed fame adjacent, right, and came across
Kevin Pollock. Yeah, I came across Kevin Pollock, and I
thought Kevin Pollock is fame adjacent. He slipped his way
to the middle. That's exactly right. Thank you, Thank you
for remembering a real fan. Um so, what on the
(52:25):
terms you're looking for and I'll tell you if it
works from me, Well, I the last job. I would
like a little race from when I got last time. Um,
I was making a hundred dollars a week working for
Tim McGrath. But but I would like about a hundred
and twenty dollars a week and the and the option
to just at any point in time ask you what
(52:45):
people are like. Okay, when you when you say Tim McGrath,
do you mean Mark McGrath McGrath nope. Wow, it's my birthday.
Um okay, whoa I got? I got to two digital presents,
(53:06):
once from you, dad and the others from my dad. Mom. Yeah,
because I caught you these two polo shirts. Okay, well,
the shirts are great. I'll open my my first digital
one from you from you dad, from you my house Dad.
Let's see what's going on here? Oh my gosh, yes
(53:32):
I play. Okay, Hey Tommy, it's me Mark McGrath. Yeah,
sugar Ray, but not the boxer. What. Yeah? Hey, your
stepdad just wanted you to know that you're not his
real son. I have a birthday. Oh my gosh, that
(53:56):
was the best. That is the best, all right before before,
thank you the way before we've wrapped this up, and
I want to I guess I gotta open the one
from my for my jail dad, right yeah, sure, yeah right, honey.
Let's see not that we're comparing and he sent you something,
so yeahould enjoy that. Let's see he's acknowledging he's your
(54:20):
biological father. I think that's great too. I'm gonna press
play on this guy. Hey there, kiddoh, it's me Elvis Priestly.
H that's right. I can identify with having difficulties with
your dad because my father is not a two who
was Jason Priestley. However, I am and Elvis impersonator. Thank
(54:44):
you very much. Wow. Wow, So your dad got one
that didn't actually say happy birthday. That's interesting, But tell
you one that had a lot of heart it did, Yeah, yes,
I did, yes, yeah yeah, mom. And I got you
these two polo shirts. Mom, I actually got you a cameo.
(55:09):
Oh oh my gosh. That's so exciting, just because I
hope it's from my favorite actor, John Travolta, HU close
first play mom, Okay, okay Kevin's recording. UM, Hey, Hi,
it's me Kevin Pollock, and I just wanted to wish
(55:30):
you a happy birthday. And if it's not your birthday,
I hope you're celebrating today because it's the first day
of the rest of your life and I was thrilled
to be a part of it. How was that? Was that? Okay?
I mean, what do you think this is? Thank you?
(55:51):
I can't even believe I deserved this from the dad
from uh planner? That's incredible? Is that? No? Is that
who he is? Woman's dad dad. He's riding the horse,
(56:13):
he simpkins. It's the warden. I know you've been in
solitary for the week. Worth it? Thank you? Can't get out? No, no,
we're gonna keep you in solitary for Come on, I did,
I did my time in solitary. I just want to
let you know that we did get your kid. That
(56:37):
that greeting from Elvis Priestly huh yeah, he was only
twenty five bucks for for ten hours. Yeah, and uh
he said he's he's out front. He says, when you
get out he's here to pick you up. Oh my gosh.
He doesn't realize that I'm just getting out of solitary
(56:57):
back into regular You got you got ten year is
left in your sentence. Yeah, I guess I might have
misled him when I said as getting now, yeah, can
you break it to Mr Priestley? Can I? I mean,
I can't case. I'm still going to do some more
time here in in salitaire. But I guess the word
is that your your kid, like the things like the
(57:20):
cameo that was really nice mom, because it's okay. He's
also the dad in the movie where the Girl because
she was like, yeah, okay, okay, that's a classic and
everybody loves it. Yeah, but you're saying he was the
dad in in the Wedding Planner. He's friends dad and
(57:42):
the wedding planner Wedding Planner, Yeah, which is oddly you know,
obviously a huge fan. But there's no connection between him
and John Trabold. I don't think. Well, he wasn't a
documentary surprised easingly a documentary that included John Trivolta. No,
(58:04):
it was. It was I was really shocked to see
him because it was a clip of something he had
done that was in another documentary. What was the documentary about?
What was? Hold on? Mom? This is important. This is
worth just sitting through everything because it was it was
a documentary about a subject. Oh, I know, the price
is right, The price is right, Mom, there's a documentary
(58:28):
about a guy who quote unquote cheated on the prices. Right. Wow,
Well listen, Tommy. This is the great thing about cameos
and about celebrities. Everyone has their own personal connection to them,
and they have no personal connections to those people. You know,
it's like everyone had it with them. It's very one side,
but they you know, we hold whatever we hold due
(58:51):
to our hearts about them, Um, like you must have
felt about um. Rock McGrath. You know you loved, you loved.
This is a great birthday and I think you made
(59:11):
a the right choice falling in love with my stepdad. Ma'am.
Are you sure he's not gonna notice me crossing out
this extra l to make it a polo shirt? Because
these are shirts that is our shot boom made of chicken. Oh,
(59:37):
thank you also damn much. Um. A special thanks to
to Mark Gagliardi and Jackie Gonzals Ruthy for joining us
as guests alchemists on so many many episodes over the
last few years. I've been a pleasure. Talent and and
willingness have met the world to us, and I think
(59:57):
I speak for the other founding members and and thank
you for being as great as you are. And it's uh,
you know, full of the sort of joy that I
was hoping the show would bring to other people, and
you're both perfect examples of that. Thank you, thank you.
It has been a treat, what a blast, what a
(01:00:20):
what a great time, and wonderfully to be a part
of Yeah. And again, so long for now I'll never
see Yeah, because I'm coming to never see anyone here again. Jackie,
I'm gonna be at your place for dinner tonight. I
don't know if it's please, let yes, yes? And for
(01:00:42):
breakfast right yep, great, We're gonna biscuits your gravy uh uh.
And Chris Alvarado, thank you so damn much. Hey, thank you,
and Jackie and Mark. It's been so fun to be
like so or by your both your talents, but also
just personally like how lucky we uh We've all been
(01:01:06):
to become become closer as friends and not just not
just performers, Like I'm so stoked that, like now I
really consider both of you like two of my good friends.
Uh So I just want to say that, and I
love you guys hey man, brother, love you back. James.
You want to add to that, you know, multi uh
(01:01:30):
times times ten times. It's been a hell of a blast.
It's uh being able to get together the new guests
when we started bringing guests in brought a lot of
life into the show. It was really fun and I
don't know what the hell I would have done through
COVID and through the lockdown if it wasn't for the
times to be able to get together and laugh on
(01:01:52):
soon with you guys. So thank you Greg. Yeah, Mark
and Jackie are great. But I do want to talk
about the uh the term Jerry rigged, which he's been
boiling this whole time for it. I think we might
have actually covered it on the show before, because yeah,
(01:02:14):
because Jerry rigged is a conflation of two previous terms,
jury rigged and Jerry built. Jury rigged referring to an
improvised sale, so that means something you've kind of thrown
together on the fly. Jerry built is something that's built
shodily and they all pre date referring to the Germans
as as Jerry's. Oh now I feel like a racist,
(01:02:36):
and I apologize all of Germany. You can always be
racist to Germans. Uh. But yeah, it's I'm only doing
this because it's so tough to say goodbye to Mark
and Jackie, who I will never see again. I know
it's weird, will never ever see you again. Uh. Thanks
(01:02:58):
also to our engineering producer or to the stars, Mr
doug Bane. Fine folks that I hurt media who have
given us a home. I'm your host, Kevin Pollock, thanking
each and every one of you so very very much.
I hope to see you again and soon, if not sooner,
check your mail and until next time,
