Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
You saw the Happy Gilmour movie. I did. I watched
it last night. How was it? I liked it.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
Now there's a lot of people saying, oh my gosh,
it's ridiculous, it's silly. I laughed out loud a few times.
My favorite part was the good hearted nature that all
the professional golfers displayed in the movie. I mean you
had Roy McRoy and Scheffler was in it, and Bryson
and Fred Couples and Nicholas and the one obvious.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
Jack Nicholas is in the movie. He is Oh, that's cool.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
Yeah. The one obvious person who was missing was Tiger Woods,
although they referenced him plenty throughout the movie. I think
you would really enjoy it because I know how much
you like golf.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
It's so weird that he wasn't in it. You gotta wonder, like,
did they how hard did they try to get him?
Why wouldn't he just do a cameo? I mean, how
busy could he be these days where he doesn't have
me a one day to go shoot whatever thing they needed?
That is very odd that because Daily apparently has John
Daly is a big role in Here's my problem. I've

(00:56):
thought about this now three times to sit down and
watch the you know how I am, though, I cannot
sit through an hour and thirty minute movie.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
But I think as the golfers pop up throughout it,
I think you'll get a kick out of seeing them.
Oh my gosh, he's in it. And they clip the
original movie throughout it, because they bring back all of
the characters from the first one, and they kind of
remind you of who was in the first one. And

(01:24):
it's clearly a take on live golf. You know, I
think you would really enjoy.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
It, Hammer said, Scheffler is hilarious. He is. And I
don't want to spoil Okay, yeah, spoil it for you,
but part about an hour and thirty minutes and watch
this movie.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
I mean, it's not like you're not going don't go
into it expecting it to be The Godfather. I mean,
it's a comedy, and it's Adam Sandler comedy. You've got
a guy with you know, crossed eyes and which you
have in every single one of his movies, and they
even reference some other Adam Sandler movies throughout it.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
I can't, It's just I can't. The last time I
watched an Adam's like a new like a Hey and
Adam Sandler movies that you better watch it like it
even does he even make movies regularly anymore? Well, he
made this we well, I know what I'm saying. He didn't.
Does he even have to? I mean he's probably reached
that point where he didn't have to do it any anyway.
All right, fine, I'll find an hour and thirty minutes.
But if it stinks, I'll hold you accountable.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
Well, like I said, it's not this big oscar worthy director.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
I'm not expecting that.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yeah, I don't expect that, and you'll, I think you'll
be pleasantly surprised at how fun it is with all
of the professional golf. You know what in the.

Speaker 1 (02:30):
Movie Weird the things you remember as a kid. I
remember as a kid. I must have been what year
look it up? What year did Happy Gilmour come out?
I'm certain it was nineteen ninety six. Tell me if
I'm right on this, and I'll tell you why it
is nineteen ninety six. By the way, we have our
our pal Ethan is what that's not Ethan Hatcher, but

(02:52):
young Ethan. Ethan is a broadcasting student at Ben Davis
High School and his parents asked if we would take
him under our wing for a day to try to talk.
Came out of a career of destitute and loneliness that
the broadcasting industry has to offer. So sitting here, Ethan
has told me it is nineteen ninety six. Yeah, here's
how I remember this. Remember what do we talk about
with my mind? Casey, Yeah, it's a file Captain's ste

(03:14):
It's just like a steel trap when something goes in.
And the only problem I have with this is that
I get so much stuff in there. Occasionally things have
to go out to make room for more stuff. But
I distinctly remember in the sixth grade going to the
movie theater and seeing that movie, and my buddies who
I played like elementary school sports with, just happened to

(03:36):
be there too, and they were going to see the
Tommy Boy movie, which was out at the same time,
but we convinced them to come see the Happy Gilmore
movie because it was sports with us in the movie theater.
And that's how far back I can remember twenty nine
years ago vividly, like it was yesterday. I can see
it in the theater, and that, my friends, is why

(03:58):
this is the number one rated radio program in Central Indiana.
How about that?

Speaker 2 (04:01):
Do you remember how much you paid for that movie?

Speaker 1 (04:03):
I didn't pay for it. My mother paid. Oh okay, yeah,
I distinctly obviated. But it was a day show. Of course,
you know, you went to a matinee. My parents were
great at hanging on to the first nickel they ever made,
so I guarantee it was some. It was a day
It was a day show.

Speaker 2 (04:17):
They're thrifty as well.
