I hope they don't ruin it.

Lesli (01:30):
That's what I mean they will.

Will (01:35):
Oh, I guess I'm carrying the conversation.
That's cool.

Lesli (01:37):
And then when it sucks they're going to say the price
is wrong bitch.

Will (01:47):
That's true.

Lesli (01:48):
That's the only thing that's gonna save it.

JT (01:49):
Something's gonna be wrong they're gonna dig up bob
barker's body, and then he'sgonna fight the corpse on the go

Will (01:51):
too soon, yeah, too soon did he die?

Lesli (01:52):
sorry, I don't know right .
I was just thinking that bobbarker.

JT (01:54):
Yeah, bob barker is dead, like a long time now how

Will (01:59):
how long is it long?

Lesli (01:59):
before or after michael jackson

Lesli (02:08):
Is Bill Barker dead?
Price is right.

JT (02:11):
Yeah, he died.

Lesli (02:16):
Oh okay.

Will (02:17):
Look it up Creepy.
Yeah, so anyway, billy Madison1995.
1995, one of the top years formovies, probably one of the top
years in the 90.
Yeah, so anyway, billy Madison95, 1995, the you know, one of
the top years for movies,probably one of the top years in
the 90s.

Lesli (02:29):
I feel like it was the start of the the good movies it
was up there.
Well, I mean we're not counting80s movies but like the good
90s movies

JT (02:38):
was this before, after Wayne's World after.

Lesli (02:41):
Oh, good one after,
because I Because.
I think Wayne's World ushered inthe whole SNL movie thing.
You're absolutely right.

Will (02:48):
I'd say that was the big one, yeah, the big hit.
I could be wrong.
I'm not a movie guy, so there'sprobably movie guys out there
angry with me right now.

JT (02:57):
Yeah, Wayne's World was 92.

Will (02:59):
We have so many listeners that there's definitely people
out there that are angry with me92,.
Yeah, I only know it was beforebecause I wasn't allowed to see
it.

Lesli (03:09):
I mean.

Will (03:10):
I wasn't like.
No, I was too young.

Lesli (03:12):
Wow, we quoted it on our senior trip.
Yeah, yeah.

Will (03:15):
Cause you're a lot older.

JT (03:17):
She watched it on her first honeymoon.

Will (03:19):
Yeah, and that would be the generation gap you know
because, for those that don'tknow, Lesli is 27 years older
than I am.
No, Lesli is eight years olderthan I am, so we experienced
everything different in the 90s,which is what this podcast is

(03:39):
about.

Lesli (03:40):
I was so lucky, so lucky.

Will (03:43):
We were all lucky because we experienced it.

JT (03:48):
We were the kids in Billy Madison and she was Billy
Madison.

Will (03:50):
Yeah, that's actually a perfect analogy.

Lesli (03:53):
I was Veronica Vaughn

Will (03:54):
Joe's an analogy guy.
He's a metaphor guy if you will.

Lesli (03:57):
You were Ernie

Will (03:58):
Me, I would have been an Ernie.
Only Ernie seemed like he waspretty smart.

Lesli (04:03):
Ernie was awesome.

Will (04:04):
Yeah, ernie was awesome.

JT (04:05):
Hey guys, hey guys, hey guys .

I always preferred Happy Gilmore.

Lesli (04:33):
No,

JT (04:34):
yeah, yep, I mean.
Happy Gilmore is a great movie

Lesli (04:38):
Why?
Because the air conditioningfalls on the old lady.
I mean I usually do leantowards anything with Apollo
Creed in it.
Rip Carl Weathers.
Yeah, I mean watching thismovie 95, I mean this was a big
one for my sister and I.

(05:00):
She was babysitting you.

Will (05:02):
Yeah, I mean essentially, but we watched it and, yeah,
quoted the hell out of it Stuffthat I didn't understand when.
I was younger.
Because 95,.
You know, I was a young man.

Lesli (05:16):
How old were you?

Will (05:17):

Will (05:26):
I was just phasing out

Lesli (05:27):
I was doing my college thing.

Will (05:29):
I was probably just phasing out action figures at
that point.

Lesli (05:31):
Actually, if you really want to know, I had the Billy
Madison poster on my dorm roomwall because I worked at Video
Source,

Will (05:40):
so we should yeah, I was going to say we'd probably be a
bit remiss if we didn't talkabout Billy Madison.
I know Joe didn't see it, butyou know for those who have.

Lesli (05:51):
So what I want to say is that I swear every one of his
characters came from somethinghe did in the movie.
I heard Waterboy in there.
I heard Happy Gilmore in there.
Yes.

Will (06:03):
I mean Happy Gilmore, he just kind of yeah.

Lesli (06:05):
Well, it's kind of simultaneous.

Will (06:07):
Here's the thing about Adam Sandler you love him or
hate him.

Lesli (06:10):
Love him I love him, I'll watch anything.
I love him.

Will (06:12):
Jack and Jill had to grow on me but I love it.
You know it's stupid, but

Yeah, yeah, so let's get into it.
You know like just touch thehide.
You know.
So something you know, we allknow.
It opens with the scene wherehe's in the swimming pool with
the suntan lotion Right.

Lesli (06:52):
It's good for me so were you as disappointed as I was?
I really thought they weregoing to come back with the
smiley face tan on his belly.

Will (07:03):
Oh, because it wasn't like they never showed it.

Lesli (07:05):
Yeah, it was a missed opportunity.

Will (07:07):
Well, here's the thing about that is he immediately got
out of the pool.

Lesli (07:12):
Ah, nudie magazine day

Will (07:13):
Nudie magazine day.
Now here is something that hasalways bothered me.

Lesli (07:17):
Tell me

Will (07:17):
, even from the time I was 11 years old, it's something
I've noticed.

Lesli (07:22):
Wishing you were looking at a nudie magazine.

Will (07:23):
Only it's something I've noticed wishing you were looking
at a nudie magazine.
Only the shemale fiesta, noonly the so I actually I did.
I did jot down some you know hedrives a golf cart to the
mailbox I did jot down themagazines that he pulled out.
We had shemale fiesta.

(07:43):
We had women Over 80.
Lesli you could audition prettysoon.

Lesli (07:50):
I'm trying to find it in my notes.

Will (07:54):
And he lands on Drunk Chicks.

Lesli (07:56):
Fun fact did you know that one of the Drunk Chicks was
the director's assistant?

Will (08:02):
I did not know that.
No, you do Look at that.

Lesli (08:03):
Look at that.
So here's what.
Always I did not know, that Nowyou do.
Look at that.

Will (08:05):
Look at that.
So here's what always botheredme about that scene is he got
these magazines in the mail,right?
Did you ever notice the back ofthe magazine was just a blank
page?

Lesli (08:14):
Those were not magazines.
No address.

Will (08:17):
No, no, nothing, no advertisement.
Usually it's like, especiallyin the 90s, it would have been
like an absolute.

Lesli (08:22):
It didn't fit in the budget.

Will (08:23):
It was just nothing.
It was like a kid's book.

JT (08:28):
So is that a blooper?
Is that like a conduit issue?
I think they just didn't careenough.

Will (08:30):
They were just like oh, let's just make a prop magazine.
And they didn't put anything onthe back and it's, you know,
it's bugged me.
They spent all their be on thecover of that porn magazine, so
old, and the music oh my God.
We'll talk about the music somemore, but how they did the

(08:51):
saxophone, the sexy saxophone?
Music while he's looking at himand Adam Sandler's face.

Lesli (08:59):
See the noises, always the noises, yeah.

Will (09:01):
Yeah, I mean fantastic.
But yeah, I mean the backcovers are clearly not magazines
is the thing.
But yeah, so that's alwaysbothered me.
Yeah, he gets his magazines.
He goes oh, that's when he seesthe penguin.

Lesli (09:17):
Yes.

Will (09:17):
Did not understand that as a child.

Lesli (09:20):
And I was always mad that he said they're going back to
the South Pole, because I justwanted it to be the North Pole,
yeah, no.

Will (09:27):
I'm going to take you to the zoo.
Yeah, treat you realrespectable, like.
Yes, that was a pretty solidquote.

Lesli (09:34):
He's like it's too hot out here for you, penguin.

Will (09:38):
And that's when we get to meet Juanita.
You know he follows the penguinback, quote unquote penguin
Juanita, who is frigginghilarious.

Lesli (09:46):
And who died of skin cancer.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
God rest her soul.

Lesli (09:48):
She should have used that suntan lotion.
She should have.

Will (09:52):
Juanita was great.
She was fantastic.
Yeah, loved everything abouther.
She was perfect in the movie.

Lesli (09:58):
Juanita, it's a fine piece of ass too, so good, I
know.

Will (10:04):
That's when we also get to the you know, oh, the famous.
Our next scene in the diningroom, where we get to meet Eric
and Carl.

Lesli (10:13):
I thought you were going to say Snack Pack, no.

Will (10:16):
I mean we're jumping ahead .

Lesli (10:17):
Oh, I'm sorry.

Will (10:18):
Yeah, the Snack Pack was huge.
I always, because of this movie, I always thought I liked Snack
Pack more than.
I did because of it was a thingyou know, is that different
than Jell-O brand pudding?
Oh, yeah, yeah, pedophilepudding yeah, I have Jell-O

(10:39):

JT (10:54):
That's what I'm saying, and the milk in the cardboard and
it's not refrigerated.

Will (10:58):
Yeah, my little guy drinks , you know like nobody's
business and it freaks me out.

Lesli (11:06):
He's doing all right, you just wait and see what happens,
he's cool.

Will (11:09):

Triscuit crackers.

Lesli (11:20):
Oh my gosh.
And you know, I wish I had someCarl yeah.

Will (11:24):

to show that Eric is a bit of ashithead, cause Carl's a good
guy.

Carl's.

Will (11:32):
Yeah, he's looking out for Billy Yep Um, you know.

For some reason which I still to this day don't
understand, that they had towait for Billy.
They had to wait for theowner's son to come join them

Was it 21?
Yeah, he battled silently too.
He kept it quiet because hewanted to keep the comedy going.

Lesli (14:57):
Yeah, it was successful in my eyes.
And clearly meant a lot Hiscomedy is still alive and
clearly meant a lot, becausethis comedy is still alive Love
Norm Macdonald.

Will (15:09):
Nobody does it like him, but.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
Anywho.

Will (15:12):
The, the.
Who would you rather bone?

Lesli (15:16):
Oh yes, jack Nicholson, or Meg Ryan, jack Nicholson now
1974.

Will (15:21):
And what kills me, and always has, is Billy thinks
about it, right, which isfantastic.
But then he answers Meg Ryan.
But Norm MacDonald's face, howhe's like perplexed by that
answer, he's like thinking aboutit.

Lesli (15:35):
Is that what I would have chosen?

Will (15:37):
Oh, it's so good, only he could do that.
It's just amazing.
So that's when they get back tothe house, that's when they
have the conversation, thatBilly picks up the shirt.
He's like I buy you your toys,your shirt, your clothes.
He's like actually, I stole theshirt from a friend.
Are we jumping to that?

Lesli (15:53):
Because I think you left out a great part.
Which part?
Don't put it out with yourboots, Ted.

Will (16:01):
Oh yeah, that was in there .
He called the shit poop.

Speaker 1 (16:03):
Oh yeah, that was in there, yeah.

Will (16:06):
He called the shit poop.
So yeah, the scene with the oldman Ted.
Is it Ted or Jed Ted?

Speaker 1 (16:13):
Don't put it out with your boots, ted, yeah.

Will (16:15):
Okay, and he says Judas Priest, right, yes, judas Priest
, call the fire department.
Yes, this one's out the firedepartment.

Lesli (16:24):
Yes, this one's out of control.

Will (16:28):
It's one of those damn bags.
Again it's poop again.
That's why I'm touching that.
So my thing with that character, with the old man, is I 100%
thought he was going to showback up in the movie Because you
know it leaves you with theI'll get you kids, you're all
going to die.
And it's like, oh, he's comingback into play somehow like

(16:50):
something stupid he never does,which almost makes it better to
me.
Yeah, it was just like such athrowaway scene, but it was
hilarious.

Lesli (16:58):
I'm glad they left it, because I say he called the shit
poop.

Will (17:02):
Oh my God, so often Like it's your job.
Yep, that's when, okay, sothat's after that.
You're right, that's when we goback to the dad's office and a
a big line in my, my house,growing up and still to this day
, is when he says Eric'spregnant he said he's gonna be a

(17:27):
soccer player.
Oh, that's a huge one, um, andthat's where we get our epic
line.
That scene is where we get theepic eric line, which I I
apologize if your name is ericand I've met you in my lifetime,
because that's how.
I, you certainly did that Everytime, every time, yeah, so I

(17:50):
mean, that scene was good.
I mean, I'm giving the companyto Eric, not you.
And then that's where Billycomes up with his plan, right?

Lesli (18:01):
Yes, that's when my notes are all out of order.
I mean, go with your heart.
I know I'm trying.
Don't go with your notes.

Will (18:07):
Don't go with your notes, just go with your heart.

JT (18:09):
You know you at least watched the movie, do you guys
see some parallels between thismovie and Tommy Boy, because I
see big parallels.

Lesli (18:16):
Yes.

JT (18:17):
I see it almost like the same movie and that's probably
why I wanted to do that.

Will (18:21):
Well, he's got to prove himself to get the job, and he's
wacky.

Lesli (18:26):
But both of them, the dads, just love him.
Yeah, yeah.

JT (18:29):
Yeah, it's the same.
They're both rich businessmenor whatever, and the do-nothing
son's got to prove themselves toget the company.
And there's somebody already inthe company who gets in the way
, and it's just the same yeah.

Will (18:45):
Tommy Boy was rough.
That was a tearjerker.
I loved Tommy Boy.

JT (18:48):
Tommy Boy is all time I'd say top five for me Comedies or
movies, movies.

Lesli (18:55):
Wow, same.
That's why I wanted to do thatone next.

Will (18:59):
I love that one.
Sure, we can do some Tommy Boy.
Yeah, you can some Tommy Boy.

JT (19:04):
Huh.

Speaker 1 (19:05):
Yeah, you can.
I think they were filming atthe same time actually.

Will (19:08):
Were they.

JT (19:09):
Yeah, I think Tommy Boy and Billy Madison were filming at
the same time and then ChrisFarley, the bus driver he took a
break from.

Speaker 1 (19:19):
Tommy.

JT (19:19):
Boy, and I think they were all hanging out backstage,
backstage.

Lesli (19:33):
But on the set, like Spade and Farley and sandler
like they were all in there.
What at the set?
Yes, with them.
Yeah, you were too old.

Will (19:37):
They were like we don't offer seniors.
They were like you could playthe uh sloppy joe if you want.

Lesli (19:43):
At least that may be Miss Lippy.

Will (19:47):
Her car is green.
Yeah, I mean.
I like the whole.

, each grade, blah, blah, blah.

Will (20:18):
You got to do it.

Lesli (20:19):
Up and down the stairs.

Will (20:21):
Yeah, you know, we get to the old, that's so we're
starting school.
We get to the.
Where's my snack pack?

Lesli (20:31):
Yeah, I don't, I got excited.
No, I get it.

Will (20:35):
Snack pack will do that to you.
I get it.
Yeah, where's my snack pack?
And then we get to the bus stopwhere he's standing out there
and sings his littleback-to-school song which is
still used to this day.

Lesli (20:51):
Every year with his lunchbox.

Will (20:55):
Yeah, that's what brings us to school.
We're meeting Verona Kavon.
Fantastic, she immediatelydisproves of Billy.

Lesli (21:05):
Which is excellent.

Will (21:07):
Yeah, just don't you think it's ridiculous because of who
your dad is blah, blah, blah.
Fantastic, Miss Lippy, let'stalk about.

Lesli (21:15):
Miss Lippy.
Oh my God, miss Lippy.
She was both endearing andcreeped the shit out of me.

JT (21:22):
Creepy all.
The way for me, not endearingat all, not at all.

Lesli (21:24):
Creepy all the way for me Not endearing at all, not at
all.
Creepy.
I don't know if it was theeyebrows or the blunt bangs or
the weird dance she did.

Will (21:36):
Those were blunt bangs.
Another thing that was weird tome she was doing that weird
dance, that tantric.

Lesli (21:42):
whatever you thought, See , that's what I'm saying.

Will (21:44):
She was chewing gum and it didn't go together.

Lesli (21:47):
I said the same thing.
I'm like what was she eating?

Will (21:50):
I think she was chewing gum.
That was really weird to methat she was chewing gum.
It didn't fit Right.
Yes, it didn't fit at all.
I don't know.

Lesli (21:57):
And it was weird.
She was like ooh yeah, but whatI will say?

Will (22:04):
She was doing some made-up hippie dance.

Lesli (22:06):
That classroom looked like a legit classroom.
Yeah, yeah, probably was Allthe way down.
I'm saying they did a good job,man.

Will (22:17):
they really did their research, you know At least
someone does Fucking fingerpaintings?

JT (22:22):
up.
She wasn't the first personthat they wanted to roll.
They wanted a tall teacher.
Tall blonde teacher and thenshe came on set.
She came on set to the audition.
Adam Sandler was like she's notwhat we were looking for.

Lesli (22:35):
But signed her on the spot.

Will (22:38):
Really yeah.

Lesli (22:40):
I love how she says puppy , puppy, puppy that little puppy
paws that lost its way.
You go out there and you findthat damn dog.

Will (22:50):
You find that fucking dog.
So good I remember the firsttime I saw that, I mean I was in
tears.

Lesli (22:57):
Oh hilarious.

Will (22:58):
That just cracked me up.

Lesli (22:59):
Probably had something to do with being able to hear
somebody say fuck in a movie andyou were allowed to laugh, and
you were allowed to laugh, and Iwas allowed to laugh.
But it was just so funny, whatI loved was how all the kids
fell asleep and he's sittingthere like mouth hung open like
waiting for the end of it.

Will (23:18):
And what's so funny about that scene to me is like he's
super into it, but then duringhis little dissertation, yeah,
miss lippy is like really she'sfeeling it like she's agreeing
with him, like okay, she waslike, you got this yeah yeah, oh
, so good.
Um, that's when we get the.
You get out there and find thatfucking dog line, yeah that's a
good one.

(23:38):
And then we um, you know, thatbrings us to dodgeball.

Lesli (23:42):
Yes, that's our first odoyle rules all I have written
down is kid with mullet kid withmullet.
Yeah, I think I had somethingabout the kid with mullet too
because, like you, couldre-watch that scene and watch
every kid on its own, on his ownthat's true.

Will (24:00):
Yeah, getting pelted, yeah , which apparently was
apparently was like they say, itwas real.
It was real.
The parents were pretty pissed.

Lesli (24:07):
And they had to cut.
Yeah, they cut, cut when thekids were crying, right.

Will (24:10):
Yeah, yeah, hilarious, he deserved it First time.
I think that was the first timeI've ever heard Beat the Brat
by the Ramones.
I mean it just fits soperfectly.
The music I don't know, I thinkall the music, even the score
and everything just fits soperfectly in this movie, you

(24:32):
know, like the uplifting musicthey do in between the scenes.

Lesli (24:36):
Totally.
He always has the best he does,he does.
Did you know that it wasPolyfector High School and you
can get a Polyfector High Schooldodgeball team T-shirt?
I'm getting this one.

Will (24:48):
Was it elementary school?

Lesli (24:49):
Yeah, oh, polyfector.

Will (24:51):
Who was an English clockmaker?
Because it was Nip High HighSchool, right.

Lesli (24:56):
Yeah, no, not high school .
Yeah, polyfector ElementarySchool, Not to like, correct you
.
I just I mean sorry, I'm usedto it.

Will (25:03):
I just.
We have a lot of fans and Idon't want all those emails.

Lesli (25:06):
Well, they know which.
One's usually right, that'strue.

Will (25:10):
And that's where the emails come from.
Something else I did noticereal quick in the dodgeball
scene and I might have mentionedthis to you before was how it's
a bunch of kids on theplayground and there was zero
adults in the scene.

JT (25:24):
Zero.

Will (25:24):
Yes, there's nobody.
No teacher's aid, nope, nothing, just.

JT (25:27):
You can see how much times have changed.
Oh my god, forget it.

Will (25:31):
Just mayhem, just yeah, go pelt this shit out of each
other with a ball On theconcrete ground.

Lesli (25:37):
Just blow on it if you fall.

Will (25:39):
And see what happens.
So yeah, that was pretty,pretty funny to me.
Another, so yeah, that waspretty pretty, uh, pretty funny
to me.
Um, another, another big line,Uh, so the Donkey Kong, donkey
Kong scene where he's like Ithink, uh, what is Scotty's like
?
Donkey Kong or no, uh, mortalKombat's the greatest game.

(26:01):
Or what'd you say?
Mortal Kombat for Sega Genesisis the greatest game ever made.
I love how Billy it's like hisfirst intelligent debate.

Speaker 1 (26:10):
He's like I disagree.
He's like I disagree.

Will (26:13):
I think Donkey Kong is the greatest game.
You suck the arts and craftsscene in the first grade where
they're all what are they doing?
A duck or something where hestarts eating the glue?

Lesli (26:27):
like here's a generation gap.
Please tell me you used thattype of glue.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
Oh yeah.

Will (26:32):
We did In the jar.
Oh yeah, I could smell it.
Yeah, it was minty.
It was that minty like and likejust.
You'd have, like the congealedparts around the top, yes.
And then like the paste, butlike did you have?

Lesli (26:43):
yes, it wasn't like, it was like mixed.

JT (26:52):
I remember the smell.
The one girl looks like that.

Speaker 1 (26:53):
You had to use the popsicle stick to spread it.
I hated that, yep.

Will (26:56):
Yeah, so Arts and Crafts.
That was hilarious.
I think that's with the numberone song, right, Number one,
number one.

Speaker 1 (27:03):
Yes, yes, it is.

Will (27:13):
That, Um.
Something else that was veryfunny to me was, uh, when he
goes to the bathroom and he'strying to use the tiny urinal,
which is something I'vestruggled- with in life as a
taller gentleman.

Lesli (27:20):
Going to kids' bathrooms.

Will (27:21):
No, I wouldn't go that far , but you know um well.
As you know, and back in theday when I substitute taught you
know there was there were timeswhere it was your only option.

Lesli (27:32):
Remind me to tell you the story about how I had to lift
an old lady off one of thosetoilets.

Will (27:36):
I've heard it before.

JT (27:37):
All right, Well, JT you'll have your chance one day If you
go to like an old, old publicschool and like the toilets are
so low, like it's basically ahole in the ground, and then the
urinals are like seven feettall.
They go from like your eyelevel to the floor.
Yeah, it's not like the onestoday, where it's like right in

(27:58):
the zone.

Will (27:59):
This is like.
So a little side session.
I found out a few years ago, asa six foot three male, that if
you use the children's urinal,um well, you don't use it with
the child, isn't that, joe?
Um, that's where I think thethe disconnect has come into

(28:20):
play for the time he did it.

Lesli (28:21):
Um, yeah, yeah, you know, I told him no, um, you know,
for splash purposes.

Will (28:26):
The, the lower urinals seem to be a little better for
splash purposes.
Um, yeah, A problem, here's ahere's a tip.

JT (28:32):
The lower urinals seem to be a little better for splash
purposes.
Oh yeah, a problem.
Here's a tip Never wear sandalsat the urinal, that's true.

Will (28:38):
Ever.
That's a good tip, all right.
Anyway, how about the?
You want some of this milk?
No, milk will ever be our milk.

Lesli (28:46):
No milk will ever be Well .
I'm waiting for you to get adismissal when Miss Lippy brings
out his.

Pop quiz, pop quiz, pop quiz.

Blade in Mortal Kombat, did she?

Speaker 1 (30:21):
Oh, there was, her, wasn't?

Will (30:22):
there and I will say, as far as I think, we might have
talked about this, but her skinis the most flawless skin I've
ever seen in my life.

Lesli (30:32):
They did the same thing to her skin as the voice.

Will (30:35):
Her skin was, she was at the Noxzema commercial.
She was at.
Yeah, noxzema, we should do anepisode on.

Lesli (30:41):

Lesli (32:59):
Yes.

Will (33:00):
That's Billy.

Lesli (33:01):
It's the one that looks like Peg Bundy to me.

Will (33:03):
The 90s hot mom Let me put a little asterisk.
Yeah, like it's an asterisk,it's a 90s hot mom because like
when you're younger and you'relike, oh man, she's hot.
And then you look at her nowand it's like yeah, you look at
her now and you're like, oh, shesmells like cigarettes, yeah,
and coffee.
There's nothing wrong with that, but you know, it's just.

JT (33:23):
I really don't appreciate how you're objectifying women.

Will (33:32):
No, this is 11-year-old Will.
Objectifying women.

JT (33:33):
I don't appreciate that.
Let's go back in time.

Will (33:36):
It's different.
I'll talk to him.
So we had the Rolex and thepinata.
We get to see Eric being adouchebag again with the kid
with the three-legged race.

Lesli (33:44):
Oh my God, that was the best.
He's like dragging him.

Will (33:47):
Oh, he's like dragging him oh, he's such a garbage human
being.
I love him.

Lesli (33:53):
I loved and I think it was the first party where Eric
was choking and Carl like slapshim on the back because Carl's
just Carl.
Yeah, carl's awesome, like that.
Carl's the best, carl's gonnasave you if you're choking, yeah
that's right.

Will (34:05):
You know he's not gonna offer you a Triscuit no, he you
a triscuit.
He'll save your life, andthat's when we get to see the
clown fall, which was amazing.

Lesli (34:12):
Oh my God, I'm going to start singing.

Will (34:17):
The first time I saw that again almost peed myself when
the blood just like they're alllaughing.

Lesli (34:22):
And they're all laughing.

Will (34:24):
And what's always stuck with me, even since I was a kid,
is Miss Slippy Like she'swearing like her weekend outfit.
She's got like her littlehalter top on.
Like you see that the teacher'sletting loose and like and
they're all laughing at just theblood fall.
It's mad.

Lesli (34:40):
So good, it was just a hemorrhage in my head.
That's what I think about um umagain.

Will (34:49):
Another person I thought would play a lot more of a role
in the movie was the janitorSideburns.
Sideburns was fantastic we seehim at Eric's office where he's
clearly giving him info.
Insider info the party.

Lesli (35:05):
You know what always bugged me?
They were always swimming inthe fountain.
They were millionaires.
Where's?

Will (35:13):
the pool.
I feel like it was a pool withthe fountain.

Lesli (35:16):
Man I don't know.

JT (35:19):
It looked like a fountain.

Will (35:20):
Right, yeah, Something that's always stuck with me is
the janitor is talking to Eric.
He's like you know what do yougot for me?
And he says Billy likes todrink soda, Because I always
felt like it should be.
Billy likes to drink milkBecause he offered him milk.
Oh yeah, Like it just.
And Billy likes to drink sodais hilarious, Don't get me wrong

(35:41):
, missed opportunity.

Lesli (35:41):
I think it's hilarious.

Will (35:42):
But it just.
Even when I was younger I waslike, wait, it would have made
more sense for milk offeredVeronica Vaughn milk.

Lesli (35:50):
Nope, well, well.

Will (35:52):
Well, Any who's second grade?
We don't really see much ofsecond grade, that's just the
spelling bee right, that was theold lady, right, the old lady
yeah.
And it's just the spelling beeright.
That's all we see for secondgrade.
I think so.
Yeah, they kind of breeze overthat.
The second grade party openswith the little kid sitting on

(36:14):
the sprinkler and just screaming.

Lesli (36:16):
He was being sprayed by the hose, wasn't he?
No, no, that's later.
That's with the other guy.

Will (36:22):
The kid just runs and sits on a sprinkler and it's
spraying up his head.
He just lets out this screech,that's it.

Lesli (36:29):
That's the scene.
It takes care of the itch.
Then we're in third grade withVeronica and Valon, I love how
the parties get a little bitmore mature every time they do
so in third grade.

Will (36:42):
We get to meet the kids there.
You know we got the Veronicawalks in.
It's a jackpot which.

JT (36:50):
I use probably on a weekly basis.

Will (36:54):
Just in general, with anything Doesn't matter.
Something about that scenethat's always just made me laugh
is Ernie's so fucking loud.
When he's like we like whispersomething to him, he's like
what's he say?
Like keep it down, dude, you'regoing to get us in trouble.

(37:14):
Like so loud, like he's such afucking narc, like come on dude,
you're going to get us introuble, it's so loud, don't the
teachers watching?
Yeah, it's so loud Drives menuts.
Yeah, but Ernie's good people.
But yeah, I mean you look atthe kid you know what you're
getting.
You knew right away that's whenhe doesn't want to go back to

(37:38):
school.
Oh, no, no no, that's whenBilly's talking to the maid in
the kitchen.
He's like, you know, myteacher's giving me a real hard
time.
So she's like, if you want, Ican take my shirt off.

Lesli (37:52):
Yes, and he goes, oh gross.

Will (37:54):
I'll go to school.
Okay, so like after the offerto take her shirt off.
That's when they're doing the.
And again, her voice, her voice, mr.
What did she say?
Billy Madison, would you liketo come up to try some cursive,
like it's just so, like theyfocus on it so much.
You're like that's hot.

(38:15):
Oh, my God, yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:18):
Oh man.

Will (38:23):
You know he can't do the Zs obviously.

Lesli (38:25):
Oh, and that's the.

Will (38:29):
Rizzuto is not a word, it's a player.
And I hate all of you.
I'm never coming back to school, never.
So that's what cracks me up isin.
The next scene is when the, the, the, the maid comes in and
Billy hops in the bed, and whenthe maid walks in like you can
clearly see the covers just likestill settling like very much,

(38:51):
so it's not like still settlingLike very much, so it's not even
like a question.
Yeah, and another fantastic linefrom the Maid If you're going
to stay home, you can help meshave my armpits.

Lesli (38:59):
Yes, yes, oh God, I'll go to school.

Will (39:01):
I'll go to school.
So, Joe, now we're atValentine's Day with Principal
Anderson.

JT (39:07):
That creeped me out, that guy is fantastic, but every time
.

Lesli (39:12):
Every time I watch it, when he opens up the big one, I
always think it's going to beMiss Lippy.
I always forget it's PrincipalAnderson.
You know what's funny I?

Will (39:22):
think the first time I saw it, I thought the same thing.

Lesli (39:25):
Right, like it was going to be Miss Lippy.

Will (39:32):
I saw Principal Anderson at a.
Popo in Manhattan At a what Awho POPO, the restaurant in
Manhattan.

Speaker 1 (39:37):
I don't know what that is.

Will (39:38):
I think it's Peruvian right.
There's a bunch of them all inthe city.
There's a couple in Queens, butmy wife and I used to go to the
one in Manhattan.
We went for lunch one day andit was just us and these two
other guys and one of the guyswas principal anderson and did
he have his mask on.
He didn't have his wrestlingmask on, unfortunately did he
look at you and wave creepily?

(39:59):
He gave me.

Lesli (40:00):
Yeah, definitely did he shoot water through his teeth?

Will (40:04):
no, and like I, I was like , you know, I was excited to see
him, but I also don't reallyknow how to speak to people.
You know, my big thing not thatI run into a lot of celebrities
, but it's usually if I do, it'sat a restaurant.

Lesli (40:19):
And you're not going to go up there.

JT (40:21):
Yeah, they're eating.
You know You're fancy dude.
I never run into celebrities atthe restaurants I go to.

Lesli (40:26):
He suits on their lap when he sees them.

JT (40:27):
You don't run into a lot of celebrities ordering off the
dollar menu at McDonald's.

Will (40:30):
That's true or during senior hour but yeah, I saw I
was excited.
I gave him a little like littlewave to like acknowledge I knew
who he was and he gave me likethe wave back.
He seemed very approachable.
I just like I don't know.

Speaker 1 (40:49):
I didn't know what I would say to him what's that
guy's deal?

Will (40:52):
Yeah?

JT (40:52):
You should have sent him over a Valentine and then waved
it.

Lesli (40:55):
Oh my God, that would have been hilarious, oh damn it.
With like some sweat beating.
Yeah, meat sweats.

Will (41:03):
Another, another big line for me growing up, and my sister
was to this day, really was tothis day.

Lesli (41:11):
Really a lot of these to this day.

Will (41:13):
Yeah Well, that's the thing about this.
This is a timeless movie and,honestly, if you think about it,
Billy Madison really istimeless.
There's really nothing, there'sno situation he's in that a
cell phone would have gotten himout of.

Speaker 1 (41:27):
You watch Seinfeld and you're like oh, that could
have been avoided by a textmessage.

Will (41:31):
Yeah, like Billy Madison, I think would have rolled
exactly the same, more or less.
It's timeless, it's timeless,but the phone call.

JT (41:39):
I don't know about letting a 27-year-old in a class with
little kids now.

Will (41:44):
Okay, I'll give you that, but you know what I'm saying
it's just like the Shut up Joe,but the phone call to Ms Vaughn
with Ernie.

Lesli (41:57):
Oh my gosh, that was the best.
Do you like anybody in class?
And I love he does the littlelike he's fixing his glasses.
Yeah, he's such a little kid heis.

Will (42:08):
I know when the phone's dialing and he cleans his teeth
out.
It's so organic, he's such anorganic character.
I love him and Billy's walkingaround like say this, say that
he does the tries to listen andErnie pushes him away.
I love it.
The you blew it is somethingthat will be forever Always.

(42:31):
Put it on my fucking tombstone.
I love it, but the you blew itis something that you blew it
that will be forever Always.

Lesli (42:35):
Put it on my fucking tombstone.
Yes, yes, yes.

Will (42:37):
It's just going to be with me forever.
I love that line.
So yeah, hilarious the fieldtrip scene.
What do we think about the?

Lesli (42:46):
field trip scene.

Will (42:47):
This is when we first see Chris Farley.

Lesli (42:49):
The end.

Will (42:49):
Which-.

Lesli (42:50):
So apparently he had like eight shots of espresso.

Will (42:55):
And he was holding his breath.
I guess before the scene heholds his breath.

Lesli (42:58):
Yes, oh my God, but I guess that's something he would
do all the time to make his facered.
He would hold his breath, butthen he would like faint.

Will (43:07):
That man had too much passion for this world.
I'll tell you that.
Like he just.
Oh my God, chris.

Lesli (43:12):
Farley, I was reading that he would hang out.
You know they all hang outbecause I still think I should
have been there.
But they would play this gamewhere they would turn off the
lights and turn on the lightsand someone was like doing
something weird.

Will (43:25):
And he was always naked.
Well, the one was naked.

Lesli (43:28):
He had an Avion bottle up his ass.

Will (43:32):
Yeah, Chris Farley is freaking hilarious.
I use that gif all the time ofhim just angry driving.

Lesli (43:41):
Fine Great.

Will (43:42):
Grand Terrific Damn bus driver drives like a maniac.
He's like huh, Another grandbanana for the road.

Lesli (43:51):
I love that the banana comes back in.

Will (43:54):
Oh yeah, yeah, that's the best you know, we don't have any
of these other characters likethe poop on the porch guy comes
in with a fucking banana peel.

Lesli (44:01):
Exactly, he won't come back with that damn banana peel
A couple times.
A couple times, it's there.

Will (44:06):
It's doing it.
Yeah, the tick grab.
Yeah oh yeah, yeah, that's asalt brother and that's.
It's also weird to me at thatpoint that Veronica is a little
okay with it because she stillthere was nothing saying that,
like she was okay with him atthat point.

Speaker 1 (44:27):
She, you know she still hated him to a degree, you
know.

Will (44:30):
there was nothing that showed throughout the movie that
she was starting to turn tolike Billy, but apparently him
sexually assaulting is what didit?
That was the go-to.

Lesli (44:44):
I mean that'll get me every time.

Will (44:45):
Fucking 90s man.

JT (44:48):
When he wets his pants, she comes around and you see a
little smirk.

Will (44:52):
They're on the way to wet the pants.
They haven't gotten there yet.

Lesli (44:56):
The boob touch was on the way home, wasn't it?
No, it was on the way there.

Will (44:59):
We don't see the trip home other than getting on the bus.
Oh right, Then it goes to.

Lesli (45:04):
Buscemi, he says me and her got it.
No, you didn't, no you didn't.

Will (45:14):
Another fantastic quote yeah.
So the angry bus driver, chrisFarley amazing, could have been
done by nobody else.
He's just incredible.
The boob grab fantastic.
And then we get to the mostboring field trip that I've ever
experienced and I wasn't evenon it.
And then we get to the mostboring field trip that I've ever
experienced and I wasn't evenon it.

(45:35):
Yeah, it was like colonialfucking whatever, I don't know.

Lesli (45:39):
What's great was I pulled up a clip of it the other day
for my mother-in-law because shewas in the hospital and you
know it's hard to pee in thehospital and I was like, just
pee your pants, just pee yourpants, it's fine.
The hospital.
And I was like, just pee yourpants, just pee your pants, it's
fine.
Yeah, and then I was like, ifpeeing your pants is cool, just
call me Miles Davis.
And she looked at me like whatthe hell are you talking about?

(46:00):
So I had to show her the scene.

Will (46:01):
It was great and any reaction, or just no yeah, no,
yeah, you're not gonna.

Lesli (46:07):
Definitely didn't find the yeah humor.
No, I get it, I get it, I getit but you know what, when Billy
said that's the grossest thingI've ever heard in my life, I
was like that's not gross,though, if peeing your pants is
cool.

Will (46:23):
As adults, it's not as a kid watching the movie.
It's pretty, you know you getit.
You connect with it more he'simmature.
Billy is immature.
Let's call you, get it.
You know you connect with itmore.
You know he's immature.

Speaker 1 (46:36):
Billy is immature let's call it what it is you
know um.

Will (46:38):
So the stolen lunches jt your face.
Yeah, I think jt's peeing hispants right now.

Speaker 1 (46:47):
now it's so warm, real, respectable.

Will (46:57):
Who would eat 30 bag lunches?
Why fucking Norm MacDonald andthe other friend are there?
I love that they're there andthey're just laughing their
asses off.
So good, that's when we youknow.

Lesli (47:09):
I love the randoms of them.

Will (47:11):
Yes.

Lesli (47:11):
One of them.
He was all right, let's go.
I love the randoms of them.
Yes, like one of them he was.
Norm MacDonald was wearing thelobster float deflated as a
blanket.
When they're like passed out bythe pool, it was.
I was like that's excellent.

Will (47:25):
Oh, love it, Love it, love it.
Yeah, and it's like what'swrong with Ernie and he goes
over, and you know that's whenthe pee in your pants is cool.

Lesli (47:36):
Yeah, you're right.

Speaker 1 (47:37):
That is when Veronica Vaughn got a little twinkle in
her eye there.

Will (47:40):
Yeah, she got the twinkle.
Yep, she's like hey, hey hey,and I'm sure her seeing that
mansion probably really.

JT (47:48):
What's your favorite Adam Sandler movie now?

Lesli (47:51):
that we're kind of back over Billy Madison.

JT (47:53):
Really.

Lesli (47:54):
Yeah.

JT (47:54):
Out of all of them.

Lesli (47:56):
Ah man, I forgot about 51st.
See, I'm not sure you could.
It's because there's different.

Will (48:02):
I'm going to say it's kind of like a For me not to
interrupt, but it's kind of likea Rocky 1 situation.
Rocky 4 is my favorite Rocky,but Rocky's my favorite Rocky
because it's the original Rocky.

Speaker 1 (48:15):
You know what I'm saying.

Will (48:16):
Yes, you know, so it's like.

JT (48:19):
Rocky 4 is your favorite, rocky, but Rocky 1 is your
favorite, rocky yeah.

Will (48:23):
I love.
If I'm going to watch a Rockyto get amped up, I'm going to
watch Rocky 4.
But Rocky 1 is my favoriteRocky movie because it's Rocky,
it's the original.

Lesli (48:36):
It's a different vibe.
I cannot believe how many AdamSandler movies I've seen.

JT (48:39):
So what you think?
Billy Madison is your favoriteAdam Sandler movie because it's
his first.

Will (48:44):
I think it's the one that I most connect with.
I think it's the one that Iknow the most.
It's the one that reallyintroduced me to Adam Sandler
and his humor.
That's exactly it.
It's the one that I have themost jokes like one-liners from
the quotes Like literally, I wasgoing through the one-liners.
I think once a day I quote thatmovie To this day.
Yeah, easily easily.

(49:05):
Happy Gilmore's fantastic.
All his movies are great.
It's very hard to pick whatabout the forgotten one Airheads
.
Airheads is fantastic, I love.

Lesli (49:17):
Airheads.

Will (49:18):
Wedding.

Lesli (49:18):
Singer I love.
Wedding Singer is fantastic.
51st Dates I love 51st Dates isgood Airheads is, amazing
Airheads is incredible.

Will (49:26):
Brendan Fraser just rocked it.
Steve Buscemi yeah, I mean,that's one I could definitely
watch over and over.
I definitely saw that beforeBilly Madison.

Lesli (49:38):
Anger Management Hilarious.

Will (49:41):
You know, I don't think I've ever watched that all the
way through.

JT (49:43):
It was alright I thought it was funny.

Lesli (49:46):
I like Jack Nicholson, jackal Nicholson.

Will (49:49):
Old Jackal.

Lesli (49:50):
In 74 and now.

Will (49:53):
I'm gonna go 74.
What was his Punch?
Drunk Love.
Did you see that one?
The drama one.

Speaker 1 (50:02):
That was good.

Will (50:03):
I liked Philip Seymour Hoffman in that.

JT (50:07):
I love Philip Seymour Hoffman.
Greatest his role, greatestit's supposed to be.

Lesli (50:10):
Greatest, right now it's supposed to be something Hold on
His greatest role.

JT (50:15):
No no.
I mean I'm being a little, I'mexaggerating, because he was a
great actor, but the one Iremember the most is no, no, no,
along, came Polly.

Will (50:27):
Oh, so good, so good.
Best man is in the house.

Speaker 1 (50:33):
Here we go.
He was in line to be.

Lesli (50:36):
Eric Philip Seymour Hoffman.

Will (50:38):
He was Hoffman.
Yep, oh, that's right, that'sright.

Lesli (50:41):
And he just didn't want to.

Will (50:43):
Yeah.

Lesli (50:43):
But then he later regretted it.

JT (50:45):
As he should.

Lesli (50:46):
Yeah.

JT (50:46):
Historically speaking, olonke and Polly invented Shart,
or was Shart?

Will (50:50):
a third of the movie yes, no.

Lesli (50:52):
Shart was from that movie 100%.

Will (50:54):
I had never heard it before that.

Lesli (50:56):
And it was like how did I not make that up?

JT (50:58):
Yeah, exactly, it was the best.
I think the first time that Iwatched that movie and I heard
that I like wheezed so much.
I was coughing at that scene.

Will (51:05):
That whole movie.
Oh my God, like it caught meoff guard because it was one of
those movies that, like therewasn't a lot of chatter about it
.
I don't remember, like, I don'tremember it being big, like, oh
, I got to go see this in themovie, like in the theaters.
You know, I don't rememberhearing a lot about it, but that
movie Very rarely does thathappen too Very rarely.

(51:26):
So remember when we weretalking about Billy Madison?
That was cool, that's such agood movie.
So real quick and you know wedon't have to go scene by scene,
but it seems to be like a goodlittle thing going.
But anyway, I'll just bring upsome scenes to me that were
hilarious.
The third grade party, Billypassed the third grade song,
Awesome.
The guy spraying the kid withthe hose.

(51:46):
Yes, and the kid is justsitting there and he's just like
.
I don't even know you, mister,why are you?

Then Veronica Vaughn, you know,comes into the tent.
She wants to make out with him.

Lesli (52:07):
Oh, that's when she was wearing the suspenders.
I wanted that outfit.
Even I thought Veronica Vaughnwas hot.

Will (52:18):
So hot.
Want to touch the high knees.

Lesli (52:21):
But the suspenders, it was all just so.
90s, her hair, the suspenders,the crisp voice.

JT (52:28):

Will (52:31):
It's true, you're right, I don't remember the suspenders.
You don known teachers again 20years for doing that.
Yeah, you're right, I don'tremember the suspenders, you

Will (52:45):
The party is.

Oh Eric's up to something.

Will (54:07):
He made, that little laugh , that weasel laugh.
That's when we get the Jackson5 montage of him going through
the grades.
Probably the first time Ireally heard that song, at least
in a movie, ABC.

Lesli (54:21):
Oh really.

Will (54:22):
By Jackson 5.

Lesli (54:23):
Oh, your parents didn't play it on the record player, I
wasn't 37 at the time when I sawthis.
Like you, they didn't play itwhen they were, like, ready to
go out.

Will (54:40):
You had a babysitter no, was it George Thurgood.

And that is his when he shows him the magazine.
The reference, yeah, the face,his face.

Lesli (55:07):
I have Somewhere in here I have written his faces.

Will (55:10):
It's when we find out about the revolting blob.
Yes Gets blackmailed.
That's the first day of highschool where he pulls up in the
IROC Z.

Lesli (55:23):
Yes, that was the best.

Will (55:25):
What's playing then that was Billy Squire.
Stroke Me the Stroke.
Oh yeah, is it the Stroke?
All I remember is the outfits,everybody's outfits, sitting on
Billy Squire stroke me thestroke.

Lesli (55:31):
Oh yeah, is it the stroke all I remember is the outfit,
everybody's outfit, sitting onthe hill.

Will (55:36):
Oh, so 90s?
I could just sit and watch thatnot Billy's, though he had an
REO speed wagon yeah, he did.

Lesli (55:42):
He was leaning against the car, which is why I thought
he was listening to REO speed.

JT (55:45):
I'm hearing like a crazy machine in your background.

Will (55:49):
Yeah, don't deflect, don't deflect.
That is probably my furnace.
I thought that was in here,this podcast brought to you by
furnaces.

JT (56:01):
Brought to you by keeping warm.

Will (56:04):
Yeah, pulls up.
Everyone's just disgusted byhim pulling up in his Irox-y.
He does the whole like jackethe does.

Lesli (56:13):
Leans against the car, leans against it, yep.
And then signs and that's whenshe says no, I'm not going to
make out with you.
Well, that's, I'm not going tomake out with you.

Will (56:19):
So science, science class, when his friend that's, that's
his buddy.
I think it's like his collegeroommate or whatever is the
teacher.

Lesli (56:30):
Oh, really Um yeah, he's.

Will (56:31):
Uh, that's the guy who does.
Who was the dog with the cigarin his mouth?
That, like, made fun ofeverybody back in the nineties.

Speaker 1 (56:38):
Um, the puppet, triumph, triumph, that's, that's
.

Will (56:42):
I think that's the, the voice of triumph, that's the guy
is the teacher from um, thechlorophyll teacher.

Lesli (56:53):
You can look it up.

Will (56:53):
I mean pretty sure it's chlorophyll, the the teacher
who's talking, the scienceteacher and billy madison who's
talking about the chlorophyll.
And my my favorite part, Ithink, of the entire movie as an
adult is when the teacher goesand this does not make the
ribosomes happy and chuckles andBilly goes.
I think it's like if youhaven't watched this movie in a

(57:19):
while that is the best, yeah,just watch the science.
He just talks about the right,the ribosomes.
Billy's reaction is just likeooh, and that's when he talks to
the girl.
He goes with the wholechlorophyll.

Lesli (57:38):
More like borophyll.

Speaker 1 (57:41):
Oh yeah, it is Robert Spiegel.
Yeah, it is right, okay, sothat's Triumph.

Will (57:44):
Yeah, so I just found that out a few years ago and he's
like good friends with AdamSandler.
I think they were roommates incollege I could be wrong, or
roommates at some point, livingsomewhere.
He's in all kinds of shit.
He's the mailman in Chuck andLarry.
He also wrote the first twoHotel.

JT (58:03):
Transylvania with Adam Sandler.
There you go.

Will (58:05):
Yeah, they're like tight and he was in Zohan.
Yes, he was one of the guysthat would.

JT (58:10):
And Miguel the turtle cartoon, or whatever.

Lesli (58:13):
I love that he visits the kids on his break.

Will (58:18):
Yeah, goes just to see his friends.
He tells them it's great Stayhere as long as you can, you
cherish it and his face is likeyeah, it made me think of Chunk
from the Goonies.
That's when we get our.
What was that?

JT (58:38):
the second.

Lesli (58:39):
O'Doyle rules or third, too bad we can't do the Goonies
yeah we're going to, but that'sthe 80s.

Will (58:45):
We're going to throw 80s in there because yeah we're not
doing that, because it wasn'tthe 90s, oh, okay.
You're right, because thenwe've got to do Ghostbusters.
I don't make the rules, but Ikind of make the rules.
Oh wait, die Hard.

JT (58:55):
The first Die Hard was in the 80s, right yeah.

Will (58:58):
Damn it.
We could do Die Hard with aVengeance, which was fantastic.

JT (59:02):
Yeah.

Will (59:03):
Such a good one Probably could be the best one.
You know what I'm going toagree with you there, my friend.

JT (59:13):
It's at least my favorite, but that goes back to the Rocky
IV theory, because that is thesame thing.

Will (59:17):
I agree, 100%, the only.
So, and just getting off on atangent here, meh and I have a
good friend named Jimmy who thishas been a point of contention
with us since we've met the onlymovie that I will say that the

(59:38):
sequel is better, a better moviethan the original is Terminator
2.
Judgment Day.

Speaker 1 (59:46):
That's it.

JT (59:48):
Okay, hold on.
That's a statement right there.
Hold on.

Will (59:51):
You know I'm bringing it hard and we can do a T2 episode
where we talk more in depthabout it.

JT (01:00:01):
Dude, I'll agree that T2's better, but to say that that's
the only one, that the sequel'sbetter.

Will (01:00:09):
In my opinion it's.
It's the only all right.
Where were we?

JT (01:00:14):
I don't even know science class.

Will (01:00:15):
I will not make out with you, o'doyle pudding.
We get our fake joseph gordonlevitt, one of the nerds.
I I, when I was younger, Ididn't know if that was joseph
gordon lev or not.

Lesli (01:00:26):
Oh gotcha.

Will (01:00:28):
Yeah, billy went back to third grade to see his friends,
the hike school.
How's hike school Billy?

Lesli (01:00:33):
Yes, how's hike school?

Will (01:00:38):
That's what he calls Steve Buscemi to apologize.

Lesli (01:00:42):
Oh my gosh.

Will (01:00:42):
Danny McGrath was his name , danny.

Lesli (01:00:44):
McGrath, there was something there.
It was like I don't know if itwas a sloth or like some kind of
paper mache animal behind hishead.

Will (01:00:54):
Was there.

Lesli (01:00:54):
Yes, now I want to know what it was.
By the list.
Yeah, yes, by the list.

JT (01:01:04):
I'm not going to look that up.

Lesli (01:01:05):
You're going to have to, hmm.
I was like what is that?
I love, though, that he puts onlipstick.

Will (01:01:15):
Do my, do me do me what.

JT (01:01:17):
I don't get that.
I don't get the lipstick.
Is that just to show that he'scrazy?

Speaker 1 (01:01:20):
Yeah, oh yeah.

Lesli (01:01:21):
What the heck is that it's two bears dancing or
something.
What is it?

JT (01:01:26):
It looks like two papier-mâché bears dancing.

Lesli (01:01:28):
I'm right that it looks like papier-mâché, though, right
.

JT (01:01:31):
Yeah, it looks like two maybe pigs Maybe pigs standing
on their hind legs dancing.

Lesli (01:01:36):
Obviously Clearly, I'm sure that's what it's called.

Will (01:01:40):
So real quick, just to interject, I have a feeling A
that we're going to have to redoour first podcast.
I have a feeling A that we'regoing to have to redo our first
podcast B.
What would you say is the most90s thing about this movie?

Lesli (01:02:05):
It's clearly smack dab in the middle of the decade.
It's kind of like the beginningof the loser the loser 30 year
old in the basement okay, likeare we talking about?

Speaker 1 (01:02:13):
like?

JT (01:02:13):
literally in the movie, because I'm gonna say all of his
like rich toys.

Will (01:02:18):
When you see it you think 90s yeah okay, like I don't have
an answer, I just know that'swhat you guys saw like I.
That's my answer like the.

JT (01:02:29):
It really dates.

Will (01:02:30):
The movie is when you look at like the mansion and see all
like the rich stuff, yeah likeI would have liked to have seen
a super soaker in that situation, or something you know like or
skip it skip it um one thing Ihad in my notes was and slide.

Lesli (01:02:45):
As a kid I hated it because it looked like it was
supposed to be so fun, butthere's always tree roots
underneath Rocks, yes, and likegrass on your feet.

JT (01:02:55):
Oh, it's so much fun.
I need 70 stitches on my chest.

Lesli (01:02:57):
Exactly, and the water was ice cold Sprinklers are no
man Get out of here, there'snothing fun about the slip and
slide.
That was like a lot of 90sstuff.
You were supposed to love itbecause it was great on the
commercial, but it sucked.

Will (01:03:15):
You run you slide, you hit the bump and take a dive.

Lesli (01:03:18):
That was Crocodile Mile.
Yeah, you hit the bump.
That was the route, that wasthe train route we had.

Will (01:03:23):
Crocodile Mile was like the slip and slide.
We didn't have that.
We just got to take the oldpool cover off once in the air.
You had garbage bags, then itwould kill the grass.
We'd get yelled at.
You guys were lucky.

JT (01:03:35):
I was poor, I had the hose and you had to put your thumb in
front of the water and justmake like a gun.

Lesli (01:03:39):
But that makes it the best it does.
That works better than the Joewas hydrants.

Will (01:03:47):
Get the cup, Joe.

JT (01:03:51):
Oh, it says the list of people to kill when he crosses
Billy Madison off.
The rest are crew members ofthe movie.

Will (01:03:56):
I did read that.

Lesli (01:03:58):
The other people that were supposed to play Carl were
Edward Herman.
You know who that is.
That's the guy.
It's the dad from Richie Rich.

Will (01:04:08):
The movie oh, great movie we should do that is.
That's the, it's the guy, it'sthat guy.
It's the dad from Richie Rich.
Yes, the movie, oh great movie.

Lesli (01:04:12):
We should do that one.
Yes, harry Shearer.

Speaker 1 (01:04:14):
Who.

Lesli (01:04:15):
Harry Shearer, who it's like a tongue twister.

JT (01:04:20):
Is that the guy?

Speaker 1 (01:04:20):
from.

Lesli (01:04:21):
Night Court?
I don't know.

JT (01:04:23):
No, that's Harry.

Will (01:04:25):
Henderson.

Lesli (01:04:29):
Oh, that's yeah.
And Michael Richards, ChevyChase, Steve Martin and Bill
Murray.
They were all working on otherprojects.

Will (01:04:35):
Who were they supposed to play?

Lesli (01:04:36):
They were supposed to play Carl Carl.

Will (01:04:39):
Mm-hmm, carl, carl.
I think it would have made it acompletely different movie if
it was like Bill Murray or ChevyChase, totally Because it would
have been like more focused onthem.

Lesli (01:04:49):
Yeah, because you can't have those megastars and be like
.
No, that's what I Exactly.
Brian Madison, the dad, leslieNielsen, he disliked the film's
humor.
I dislike Leslie Nielsen'shumor, what Well?
I mean I kind of loved Airplanethough, so I can't say that
he's fantastic.

Will (01:05:09):
It's weird that.
That's the reason why, though,that he yeah, that's what.

Speaker 1 (01:05:12):
I mean Like Leslie.

Will (01:05:13):
Nielsen, you'd think he'd, I don't know.

JT (01:05:15):
The Naked Gun was just like the same kind of humor.

Speaker 1 (01:05:19):
I mean it was a little smarter.
It was a little smarter, I mustsay.

Will (01:05:22):
Yeah, it was a little smarter.
Little lowbrow for LeslieNielsen.
Richard Dreyfuss he thought hewas too young to play Billy's
dad.
Richard Dreyfuss, old MrHolland and Jack Nicholson Mr
Holland's opus.

Lesli (01:05:39):
Wanted too much money.

Will (01:05:42):
That makes sense, jack Nicholson, now or 1974?

Lesli (01:05:54):
Oh, he was so hot, jack Nicholson now or 1974?
.
Oh, he was so hot.
What is funny is he wasoriginally the dad in the
Christmas story Jack Nicholson.
Jack Nicholson, and whathappened?
Yep, I don't know.
He got replaced.
You know who would have fit inhere?

JT (01:06:05):
Your mom.

Lesli (01:06:06):
Hey-o, she would totally Joe Hyphen's got it going on.
She would totally Joe Hyphen'sgot it going on.
It's true, eric Bob Odenkirk.
I feel like Bob Odenkirk couldtotally do Adam Sandler.

JT (01:06:19):
Dude, if you look at all the stuff Bob Odenkirk was supposed
to be in.

Lesli (01:06:25):
Oh, yeah, oh, apparently they are friends Because
Universal didn't want AdamSandler to just hire all his
friends Jeff Daniels, but he wasoffered Dumb and Dumber for
less money and took it.

Will (01:06:37):
I did hear that.
I just actually saw thatyesterday Some Instagram page
they were talking about it.
I'm glad he did that Bettermovie.

Lesli (01:06:47):
That's a fantastic one.
Dumb and Dumber yeah, I'm gladhe did that better movie.

I think I saw that five times in the theater.

Lesli (01:06:56):
Really yeah.

Will (01:06:58):
So it's safe to say you hated it Terrible.

Lesli (01:07:00):
You thought it was awful.

Will (01:07:02):
Oh my god, I just I was a huge Jim Carrey fan when I was
younger, like he.
Yeah, I couldn't get enough ofhim as a kid.

Lesli (01:07:12):
Oh, they wanted John Candy to play Max Principal
Anderson, but he passed away in94.
Jason Alexander, I can see that.
Glenn Shaddix, you know whothat is?
That's the guy from Beetlejuice.

Will (01:07:26):
He's one of the people at the dinner party.
Yeah, the guy, the weird guy,yeah, plays the garbage, can.

JT (01:07:35):

drunk by the pool?
They're like, what are theydoing?
Oh, they're playing water polo.

Lesli (01:08:00):
Meanwhile her hair was beautiful.

Will (01:08:04):
Oh, gorgeous.

Lesli (01:08:05):
Her makeup was flawless even after she played water polo
.

Will (01:08:09):
Oh, she looked amazing.

Lesli (01:08:12):
She was just there.
Please God, give me the answer.
Dirty dirty tramp, oh, pleaseGod.

Will (01:08:21):
Please God, 1986.

Lesli (01:08:25):
Theo Doyle's run off the cliff.

Will (01:08:27):
Theo Doyle's run off the cliff.
Fantastic, did not see itcoming.
Something that cracks me up ishow the car is off the cliff
yeah and they're still justchanting.
O'doyle rules the entire way,down, the whole way down just
not a break in their cadence oranything, just O'Doyle rules I

(01:08:47):
don't guess, why do I havewritten down I married common
street trash that was one of thethe categories on oh, that's
right, oh, that's right at theyeah um needle point.

Lesli (01:09:01):
It was one of them.

Will (01:09:02):
If if either one of you is caught cheating, especially
with my wife, who is a dirtydirty whore, that's right.

Speaker 1 (01:09:11):
My wife is common street trash.

Will (01:09:15):
That is probably one of my all-time favorite quotes, the.
I award you no points.

Lesli (01:09:22):
Yes, and we are all dumber For having listened to
what you just said.
If Max comes in and saves theday, max saves the day.

Will (01:09:30):
Go on and do it, kind of sweaty.

Lesli (01:09:32):
Yikes, a little hungry, but all in all I'm okay.
I'm okay, shut up, shut up.
Today Junior.
Today Junior Because I've seenit 8,700 times.

JT (01:09:51):
That's not a number.
No, it is, but it's not.
Yeah, it is, it is, but it'snot.
I award you no points, and mayGod have mercy on your soul.

Lesli (01:10:03):
Everybody's like a simple no where this is the first.

JT (01:10:07):
I always wondered how writers, when they're writing,
do they realize they got gold.

Lesli (01:10:12):
Right.

Will (01:10:14):
Is it just kind of like you're throwing it at the wall
and seeing?

JT (01:10:17):
it with sticks.

Will (01:10:18):
Yeah.

JT (01:10:20):
Even songs, Even musicians.
When they come up with it,they're like, oh my god, this is
it.

Speaker 1 (01:10:24):
This is it, or does it just surprise?

JT (01:10:27):
them that guy he was.
I forgot it.
This is it, or is it just like?
Does it just surprise them?
It's like ugh.

Will (01:10:30):
That guy he was.
I forgot what his name is.
He's not Hurley, he right, no,I think that's somebody.
Anyway, that guy used to writefor SNL, oh really, and he is
freaking.
Yeah, jim Downey, that's JimDowney.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, yeah,he is hilarious.

(01:10:52):
He was in Dirty Work and wasphenomenal on that.
He's got that straight dryhumor.
That is just phenomenal.
What was Billy Madison ratedPG-13?
Pg-13.
I think the only drop of theF-bomb was with Finding that
Fucking Dog.

JT (01:11:08):
You think the PG-13 still was with finding that fucking
dog.
You think the PG-13 still holdstoday, or is it?

Will (01:11:13):
It's G today.
Yeah, I mean it's.
I'd say it definitely holds.
I don't know what theguidelines are.

JT (01:11:24):
I think you get one F, I think on PG-13 you get one F,
and it can't be the sexual F, ithas to be like an exclamation.

Lesli (01:11:31):
When he grabbed her boob on the thing he's like wait,
sorry tit Tit.

JT (01:11:37):
Just tit so how old were you when you first saw it Will 11?

Will (01:11:43):
I was either 11 or 12.

Lesli (01:11:46):
I was 19.

Will (01:11:58):
Wow, or 12, um, I was 19.
Oh, wow, I feel I must havebeen see it's uh.
So I feel like I saw happygilmore and billy madison around
the same time.
But I like, I I distinctlyremember seeing billy.
Billy Madison first, likebecause it was it came out
sooner.
But I vividly remember seeingHappy Gilmore in sixth grade
when I was in sixth grade.

JT (01:12:19):
So you were 11 with Billy Madison?
Yeah, would you let your11-year-old child watch Billy
Madison?

Will (01:12:26):
I'm going to make my 11-year watch Billy Madison, of
course, just because you know.

JT (01:12:30):
I'm talking about like a rational parental human being.

Will (01:12:33):
Yeah, Not a super fan 11?

Lesli (01:12:36):
I would.

Will (01:12:36):
No, I mean 11.
Yeah, it's uh.

JT (01:12:40):
I don't know.
There's a lot of movies nowthat I go back and watch with my
kids and I'm like, oh yes.

Will (01:12:45):
I go back and watch Ghostbusters and I'm like, oh, I
go back and watch ghostbusters.
I'm like, oh, my, god, I thinkabout that now I was watching
ghostbusters at five years old,like that I.
I have very vivid memories ofyeah, yeah two.

JT (01:12:58):
Well, that went over my head for years you watch goonies now
or dude, even home alone.
Watch home alone now, yeah, andyou're like, oh, some of that
stuff.
You're like I don't know ifit's just because today's
culture is very soft, I'll say,yeah, so sheltered.
You watch home alone and you'relike dude yeah that wouldn't
fly like I wouldn't let thathappen in my household, the way

(01:13:20):
that, like, the uncle talks tothe kids yes, you would see a
lot too more more movies andyou'd see smoking, you'd see
drinking.
Now you can't advertise at all,you can't put it in movies or
actually TV shows.

Lesli (01:13:33):
You can do it in movies, not TV shows, the amount of
smoking that you see in moviesor on shows.
You rarely see it now.

Will (01:13:43):
Look at the difference between Ghostbusters 1 and 2.
I think every scene there was acigarette in somebody's mouth
in Ghostbusters 1 and 2.
I think every scene there was acigarette in somebody's mouth
in.

Lesli (01:13:49):
Ghostbusters 1 and in Ghostbusters 2.

Will (01:13:51):
You're absolutely right, I think Ray had a cigar at one
point at the end when they werein the Statue of Liberty, but
other than that I don't rememberthem smoking at all.

JT (01:14:01):
Yeah, they probably realized oh man, this is going to be a
big movie for kids, let's not dothat it's kind of like tmnt one
and two.

Will (01:14:11):
Like the first one was more violent, the second one,
the parents were like, oh, mykid hit somebody with a stick,
like don't let it be violent.
And yeah, we lost great.

JT (01:14:18):
Well, that was a big thing though yeah, that was, that was
a big thing.
Uh, back then with the parentswatching it and saying, you know
, they're emulating the movesand stuff the, the moves, the
moves.

Will (01:14:29):
I very much enjoyed the, the, um, the, the, the, the, the
, the, the, the, the, the, the,the, the, the, the, the, the,
the the the cat font.

Lesli (01:14:48):
Yes.

Will (01:14:51):
When that guy's balls were weird looking.
That's a big one for me.
Did you see that guy's balls?
Yeah, they were weird looking.
They were weird looking the waythe kid says it.
It's hilarious when Eric setshimself on fire.

Lesli (01:15:08):
And everybody's laughing.

Will (01:15:09):
Yes, Adam Sandler.
You know Billy Madden is doinglike a belly laugh.
It's so funny.
You know, leading us up to thetrivia game where you know, um,
which, uh, I think Lesliementioned earlier what was one
of the.

Lesli (01:15:27):
I married Common Street Trash.
I married Common.

Will (01:15:29):
Street Trash, everything just revolves around being
miserable.
Is that one of the things?
Business, business ethics.

Lesli (01:15:40):
Why was that so hard to?

Will (01:15:41):
say but the yeah.
I love how he gives like theheartfelt the puppy lost its way
.

Speaker 1 (01:15:46):
Yeah, society, the American Revolution, was it?
The puppy lost its way?

Will (01:15:48):
Yeah, Society, the American Revolution, was it
Industrial?

JT (01:15:51):
Revolution Industrial.

Will (01:15:53):
Revolution and Miss Lippy's like, just like rooting
him on and everything like that,and then we get the epic speech
.

JT (01:16:01):
You know we're all dumber for having listened to what
you've just said and somethingthat I've sent to many people in
my life, because I do rememberthe first time I saw that I
thought he was going to say thatit was a good answer and that
he like oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah,they had us all prepped for it.

Will (01:16:17):
Like I think that's what makes it like so much better, is
that like everybody sees it andyou're, and it's just like the
driest, like most hilariousresponse ever to that.
But yeah, we do the business.
Ethics.
Eric pulls the gun.

Lesli (01:16:34):
Billy, when he plays the clarinet, his mouth beats
backwards.

Will (01:16:39):
Yeah, he's got the clarinet upside down.
Yeah, yeah, he's good.
Yeah, that's, he's good.
Um, yeah, just uh, the wholething is great.
And then what?
What cracks me up?
You know, obviously, everyone'sseen it.
Uh, you know, uh, Steve Buscemicomes in, saves the day.

Speaker 1 (01:17:02):
Good for him.

Will (01:17:03):
That's why glad I called that guy, you know, that's why.
And he like waves.
Yeah, just like the awkwardwave just walks out, thumbs up.
That's why, you know, just benice to people, it's a good.

Lesli (01:17:15):
I thought it the first time I saw it.
Yeah, never forget it.

Will (01:17:19):
What cracks me up about the end of this movie.
You know, just to wrap up themovie, we can still talk about
whatever we want, but to wrap upthe movie, we can still talk
about you know what, whatever wewant, but to wrap up the movie,
that and this, this has alwaysbothered me, even as a kid.
It's just like okay, so hecouldn't spell rock at the
beginning of the movie.
Now it's the end.

(01:17:40):
He's gotten through all hisgrades and he decides he's just
gonna be a teacher.
He's's not going to.
I don't want the hotel, I'mgoing to go to college and be a
teacher, and what's that sayabout?
teachers.
That's what I'm saying.
Give them some credit.
That's what bothered you, itjust stuck out to me.

JT (01:18:01):
This is what bothered me.
They never heard of a GED.
You go to get your GED and nowhe can get his business.

Lesli (01:18:07):
What bothered me is he was so rich and wear those damn,
wear those damn work boots inevery scene.
That's what bothered me, heliked them the way he walks in
them.
He's going to break an ankle.

Will (01:18:20):
That's true.
Um, you know, I I think thatultimately this movie would
never have happened, because Ithink the father said you're
going to be taken care of, yougot nothing to worry about, you
can sit around and drink yourdaiquiris.
He does the classic dad handmovement.

Speaker 1 (01:18:44):
Your.

Will (01:18:44):
Jagoff magazine your.

Speaker 1 (01:18:45):
New.

Will (01:18:45):
Year's magazine.
I don't think he would havereally given a shit, honestly,
Like I think Billy just wouldhave been like all right, cool,
as long as I'm getting mine.

Speaker 1 (01:18:57):
Yep.

Will (01:18:58):
You know, just knowing Billy, as I knew him.

Lesli (01:19:02):
You knew him, you knew that guy you know, I knew him.

Will (01:19:08):
Adam Sandler, though, would not have done that.
You know, he's a man of prideand he needs to earn what he
gets.
And I get it.
I get it.
Yeah, no, it's a great movie,but just like many other movies.

Lesli (01:19:24):
I mean, it's not like a.

Will (01:19:29):
You're not winning awards for this movie.
You'd have to know.

Lesli (01:19:31):
Adam Sandler.
If he just popped on the planet, you'd be like this is
ridiculous.

Will (01:19:37):
True, but this was kind of how he popped on the planet.

JT (01:19:42):
Oh SNL.

Speaker 1 (01:19:43):
That's what I was just going to say I wasn't
watching SNL when I was 11.

Will (01:19:50):
Uh-huh.

Lesli (01:19:50):
I.

Will (01:19:51):
Well, because you weren't 11.
You were 37.
Yeah, so like.

Speaker 1 (01:19:54):
Yeah.

JT (01:19:56):
You remember Gilderander Shut up.

Will (01:20:00):
Does it hold up?
What about it?
Does it hold?

JT (01:20:02):
up.

Speaker 1 (01:20:03):
I think it holds up.

Will (01:20:09):
I don't think there's anything other than the groping
scene.

Lesli (01:20:14):
That really would bother anybody today.
Yeah, I think it holds up Right.

Will (01:20:15):
I mean I, you know I watch that.
Now it is kind of like, oh, youcan't do it Grab someone's boob
.
Who would you say in that movieis like the most?
See, this is probably going tobe a straight up just Adam
Sandler because of, but who'slike the most nineties person in
this movie?
Like who?
Who do you think is like, um,uh, what am I trying to think of

(01:20:42):
?
Like who encompasses thenineties the most?
Like actor wise, not not theircharacter, but like who in that
movie would?

Speaker 1 (01:20:48):
you say like really represents the nins the most
like actor-wise, not theircharacter, but like who in that
movie would you?

Lesli (01:20:52):
say, really represents the 90s the most.
The 90s Veronica.

JT (01:20:54):
I don't think Sandler represents the 90s.

Lesli (01:20:56):
You don't.

Will (01:20:57):
No, no Okay.

JT (01:21:00):
So who do you, I think, the movies that he came out?
With in the 90s are great but Ithink he became a megastar in
the 2000s.

Lesli (01:21:12):
In my mind it was like when I think 90s a staple is
Adam Sandler.

Speaker 1 (01:21:19):
I agree.

Lesli (01:21:21):
Absolutely A staple, a hundred percent.

Will (01:21:25):
But like Joe's saying what did he have in the 90s?
What was his Overboard orwhatever, that one that nobody
saw?
He had Billy Madison.
He had Happy Gilmore.

Lesli (01:21:37):
Big Daddy.

Will (01:21:40):
Big Daddy, that's the one I was thinking of.
And then what was after BigDaddy?
Was it Mr Deeds?
And I don't think that was 90s.
I think that fell in 2000.

Lesli (01:21:48):
Yeah.
I'm not sure.
Maybe it was just because allof his beginning movies were
quotable.

Will (01:21:57):
And, like Joe said, I think it just came from him
being SNL.

JT (01:22:04):
It's like why we think he's so populated to the 90s, Like
looking back on it.
Looking back on it, you couldsee him hit megastardom.
You could see at the point.

Will (01:22:20):
But I wouldn't disagree personally that he does
personify 90s because of himbeing on SNL.
I'm not just saying as an actor, I'm just saying like, which
one of these actors like really,it makes you like, really makes
you think of the 90s?

Lesli (01:22:36):
Like if somebody said to me 90s actor, I would think,
even though he's still actingtoday, I would think Adam
Sandler.

JT (01:22:43):
I see I wouldn't really.

Will (01:22:45):
Yeah, I wouldn't who, so I wouldn't, really, yeah, I
wouldn't.
So who do you have from?

Lesli (01:22:51):
From the cast of Billy Madison.
Yeah, oh.

JT (01:22:56):
From the cast of Billy Madison, who represents the 90s
the best.
Yeah, let me pull up the entirecast.

Will (01:23:03):
I would say Eric's a big one, because that was Eric was
definitely what year, was Son ofa Woman that was early 90s.

Lesli (01:23:09):
Right, we were just talking about that.
That was 92, I think Fantasticmovie.

Will (01:23:15):
