(00:09):
Live from Los Angeles. 911 What is your emergency?
Here in Hollywood now. Two counts of murder.
Injury and death, Oh my. God.
Shocking new details. It has stunned the entertainment
world. This makes me a little nervous.
The hair stood up on my arms. Just like in the movies, What
do? You call this thing anyway.
Death in. Entertainment.

(00:32):
Greetings Dead O Universe, how the heck are you?
My name is Kyle Plouffe. I'm Jerry Aquino.
And I am Ben Kissel, thank you all so much for joining us for
another fantastic episode of Death in Entertainment.
You thought the dinosaurs were creepy.
You thought maybe what man has created with science was odd.
But indeed, it is nothing in comparison to the curse of

(00:55):
Jurassic Park. We're going from Jurassic Park
to those who have gone Jurassic Dark.
Whoa. Shout out to Pano Man Oregon for

(01:20):
writing this script too, by the way.
He's on fire as we say. Thank you.
Yes, we love. So let's start here.
Let's be warned, this podcast contains spoilers, all of them
65,000,000 years in the making. Oh damn, I was supposed to catch
up with that. Yeah, yeah, we all, we are all
still working on it. If you haven't seen the original

(01:41):
Jurassic Park, I'm sorry. We're going to spoil it for you
a little bit. Yeah, come on.
Come on, who hasn't? Seriously.
So we're going to start where itall began, the genesis of this
franchise, which is Mr. Michael Crichton.
But no story about Jurassic Parkcan exist without first
exploring the prehistoric sourcematerial and acknowledging the
mind behind it all. The author Michael Crichton OK

(02:03):
OK he was born October 23rd 1942in Chicago, IL.
So he's a a Bears fan. Probably.
Talk about dinosaurs. Oh my God, that's the real
horrific story that he came. About.
Dinosaurs. Bears are dinosaur adjacent in
the fact that they are breathingliving non human.
Yes, OK. So he was an author, filmmaker

(02:26):
and non practicing medical doctor.
Can you believe that? Wait, what?
Yeah. Don't you have to be?
Wait, what? So he was just a so he just said
that to get laid at bars. No, he actually, he went to
Harvard, OK. He got ABA and MD from Harvard.
But instead of like going into, you know, diagnosing people and
being up close to sores and stuff like that, he's like, I'm

(02:46):
just going to write books. So he both made his, he both
made his father very proud, but then also very disappointed.
Yeah, yeah. He was like, I just wanted to
prove to you that I could, and now I won't.
Yeah. Oh, that's even worse than even
worse than having a drug problem.
Michael, Do you mean you could have been a doctor?
I'm smart enough, Dad. I just don't like it.
I. Just don't do it.

(03:08):
Sorry. He built his early writing
career by telling stories centered around medicine, drama,
romance, alternate history, heist, and even light science
fiction. OK, some notable early novels
included A Case of Need, The Andromeda Strain, and The
Terminal Man. Of course, an Andromeda Strain
that is the newest weed right here in North Hollywood.

(03:30):
If you haven't had it, you're going to want to check it out.
By 1973, he had written and directed his first motion
picture, The sci-fi. The sci-fi Western Westworld,
OH. Really.
Yeah, no shit. And that was the series that
came out later that was based onthat, correct?
OK cuz I the first season of Westworld I loved but then after

(03:52):
that I was immensely confused and I just slowly stopped
watching. Yeah, I think I agree.
I don't really finish. I don't remember finishing it,
but it had a really strong start.
And I was like, whoa, now this is creepy.
Yeah, this is all weird, right? Good concept.
And it does make you think aboutthe non playable characters and
all your video games. Are they just stuck there
forever and ever and ever? Yeah, exactly.
Makes me think about that peoplein real life.

(04:13):
Anything about around Reynolds as free guy?
Yep, Free Guy. And then also a lot of people,
to Kyles Point, people who like have delusions, they oftentimes
believe that their MPCS are all around them.
And then it allows them to go shoot up places because they're
like, they ain't real people, but they're real people.
Or traffic them to an island. Oh yeah, that's true.

(04:35):
Timely by the middle By the mid 1970s, Creighton was becoming
associated with a new style of literary genre called the techno
thriller Boots and Cats. Oh, that's nice.
Yeah, I'll just be sitting over here in the corner watching you
guys do that. Obviously you're very happy with

(04:55):
your drugs. These novels were full of action
and always featured A Frankenstein like level of
cautionary tale warning of the dangers of unchecked scientific
technology and invention. And on on Ben Kitzel, politics,
we're going to talk a lot about artificial intelligence, and I
think we're in a new precipice of danger when it comes to

(05:17):
technology. Oh, definitely.
Which is essentially what he wastrying to get around.
Right. I think he was trying to warn US
against it and now all of us arejust like, what if we make
dinosaurs and have a park and weopen it up to the people?
Oh, Jesus. So then Mike, he went on to Mike
like I know him. Mike Mikey.
Yeah, I call him Cricky. Yeah.

(05:39):
He then went on to publish a number of novels that would
become major motion pictures, a prolific run unrivaled by, you
know, he's up there with very few others.
His novels from 1975 to 1990 included The Great Train
Robbery, Eaters of the Dead, The13th Warrior, Congo Sphere and
finally Jurassic Park. Oh shit, so it was basically

(06:00):
just like him and Stephen King just busting out?
Seriously. Pretty much here's I think they
should out turn to gold. Yeah, I love that.
He was just like, I'm not reallycreative with the zombie title.
We're gonna call it like People of the Dead.
Yeah. I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know but I but I have a
crazy plot. Dead people who eat people I
don't know. Eaters of the Dead, I think it's

(06:22):
good. Eaters of the Dead is.
Good. The digesters of humans, yes.
Crichton began brainstorming what would eventually become
Jurassic Park by starting in 1981 and 1983, he began
developing the text into a Hollywood screenplay, so it was
a long time coming. Yeah, but it.
Was, but it was a book first. Yes, OK, yeah, the plot centered

(06:44):
around a college graduate student who managed to clone a
pterosaur. Silent peas in the in these and
these dinosaur names. Yeah, I don't know why they had
to make them all like strange names and all big just.
Try to say the P pterosaur. No, the pterosaur.
It's the pterosaur. Pterosaur.
I'm saying they're silent. Pterosaur.
Potato sore sounds fucking like you just had a coleslaw or

(07:06):
potatoes out thrown at your faceand then you got a headache
because of it. Potato sore sounds like
something you get from making out with the wrong girl in the
10th grade. Fucking case of pterosaurs.
Minute with Peggy, didn't you? No, I didn't make up with Peggy,
bro. You got potato sore, you got.
The potato. God damn it, Everyone else,
Everyone else in this class has it.
Why can't I get it? Yeah.
So the pterosaur, it is not of Herpe, it is a type of flying

(07:27):
reptile. Thank you for the clarification.
It existed between 228 to 66,000,000 years ago, somewhere
between there very small time frame.
In this early concept for the novel, the grad student creates
the dinosaur alone and in secret.
Crichton ultimately decided the story wasn't thrilling enough
for a big screen adaptation, so the story was put on hold.

(07:49):
Why they already started with dinosaurs.
I know, yeah, but I could. See it up from there.
It's just a college kid in the dorm room.
Be like, I think I made a dinosaur.
Like I don't know what the what's the story?
And the pterosaurs? Not really a sexy You got to go
with the Tyrannosaurus, right? You know what's?
The pterosaurs look like. They're a reptile.
I'll do a Google. Yeah, Google.
I'm on it. So by 1989, Crichton had found

(08:12):
new inspiration stating quote. The real conclusion for me was
that what you really wanted in astory like this was to have a
sort of natural environment in which people and dinosaurs could
be together. Yes, I mean some people believe
that we were together. Who am I to say this is the
pterosaur, which is kind of a funny looking bird.

(08:33):
Like it's pterodactyl. Yeah, but it looks kind of like
a toucan. Yeah, it.
Really does. It's like a weird protrusion
thing going on on top of its beak.
Yeah, I guess I don't know what's going on.
Either way, not cool enough for a movie.
No, this this is not a leading man dinosaur.
That you got them to sell. Froot Loops?
Yeah, they're Froot Loop dinosaurs.
They're commercial dinosaurs. Dinosaurs.

(08:54):
Get out of here you get Froot loops it.
Still looks pretty huge. It's cool gonna.
Be pretty looks like it'd be pretty terrifying if I saw.
It it's cool, but sure. Would Jeff Goldblum slowly take
his glasses down if he sees it? Yes.
I don't think so, yes. The fuck he.
Would OK point counterpoint? I don't know.
I think I goldblum needs to be wowed.

(09:15):
Goldblum. He goes on to say you wanted the
thing that never happened in history, people in the forest
and swamps at the same time as dinosaurs.
Once the once that notion began to dictate how the story would
proceed, then everything else fell into place.
The book Jurassic Park was finally published in 1990 and
received critical acclaim. It sold 9 million copies before

(09:37):
the movie was ever released. So they wrote the book, but
before the book even came out, they were like, wait, let's also
make this a script. Yeah.
So they did it simultaneously. Interesting.
Yeah. That's really interesting, yeah.
So he just knew he's like, I'm gonna have I'm gonna bang out
double S Yeah, double banger as.Long as they're already turning
my books into movies, let's justlet's let's do one on purpose.

(09:58):
Yeah. Yeah, I see.
Creighton would follow Jurassic Park with The Lost World, a
rushed sequel novel related moreto the movie than the original
novel. Production on the sequel film
was already underway before Creighton had even finished
writing the source material. That's exactly what happened
with Tommy Boy and Black Sheep. And people yell at me for saying
Black Sheep is an inferior movie.
It is. They rushed it.

(10:19):
Even the people who made it. Do you they rushed it do.
You have volume control on that.Yeah, fuck you Kyle.
That is wrong. Black Sheep is a standalone
standout feature film with DavidSpade and Chris Farley.
And don't forget Gary Busey. And the script wasn't finished
by the time they started making it.
Well, it was because it was rushed.

(10:40):
Vote for Donnelly, vote for it was political.
It was. Black sheep got very political,
yeah. Oh man, So yes, production's on
the way. They're not even finished
writing the source material. The second-half of Creighton's
career would see him publish a further 7 novels as well as a
screenplay for the movie Twister, which I didn't realize.
Oh wow. Know that either.

(11:01):
He also created the TV hit medical drama in which we all
got to know Mr. George Clooney. ER.
What a hunk. Wow.
This motherfucker was, he was basically pulling out all of the
pop culture stops. Yeah, that we all grew up on.
We grew up on on everything fromthis guy's head.
Yeah, seriously, like one question with Twister as a book,

(11:22):
maybe my brain just don't work it.
Would it be exciting to? And then the wind world and the
house flew apart. Like I feel like that's a
visual. Right.
And then there's a cow. A cow flew by, I'd feel like.
You know, you know, every time, like movies come out that are
based on books, there's like a large amount of people that'll
say the book is way better. Of course.
So, you know, sometimes putting things into a text to be able to

(11:44):
really describe things and then allowing like, your imagination
until he put things together canbe pretty fucking riveting.
True. I could go anywhere in your
head. It's more of an indictment on my
brain. Yeah, I think so.
Because I want to see the twister.
Yeah, that's fair. OK.
Well, Michael, he died of lymphoma in 2008 at the age of
66. Oh, I didn't even know he was
dead. His estate has since published 4

(12:06):
posthumous novels, all discovered on his own.
Wow. In various states of progress.
So he was just. He worked and worked and worked
and worked. This guy liked to write.
I guess so. His most recent novel, Eruption,
was not a romantic novel. It wasn't.
It didn't have Fabio on the cover.
It should have been. Was it about a competitive
eater? What's what's erupting here?

(12:28):
Oh wow, you're gonna have to read to find out.
It was published in 2024 and wasfinished by none other than the
author James Patterson. Interesting.
It'd be interesting to see if you can like, detect where the
voice flicks. Yeah, for sure.
Yeah, there's a lot of people right out of order, so you never
know. Oh wow, yeah.
Yeah, James Patterson is anotherone I just saw on the subway

(12:50):
constantly in New York advertising his books.
Oh, he don't stop writing either.
Yeah, I feel like Crichton, Clancy and Patterson, they're
like the the Holy Trinity. And and Tom Clancy, I know him
through his Rainbow Siege series, which are fantastic
video games. I do not know of.
These, they're really, really good.
What do they what? Do they?
What do you? Do you like a military person?

(13:11):
You got to feel like a military shoot, shoot.
Shoot a bunch of bad guys. This is a fun fact.
Michael Crichton was actually 6 foot 9.
Let's go. Wow, are you fucking kidding?
Imagine him being your gynecologist.
That is insane. Keep.
Your hands off, pal. And they're.
Like dude, I'm gonna have to request you use a small tool.

(13:31):
Man, that's all I got. It's a normal tool to me, ma'am.
I don't know. What the fuck?
Yo, that's great, because my people, he's 2 inches taller
than me. Yeah.
Wow. We don't get no credit for our
writing ability. This.
Oh, you can. You can even typewrite.
Can you even typewrite? Yeah.
You want to go pet the rabbits? Michael Creighton.
And his father didn't want him to play basketball.
He's like, Nah, I'm trying to use my brain.
Trying to use his brain that's. Crazy.

(13:53):
Completely makes sense though why he didn't become a doctor.
Because unnerving. Yeah.
When people are my size and theywalk in and then they give you
any news, you're just like. Literally, yeah.
I imagine Ben coming into your hospital, right, and be like,
you're going to be just fine. I just want to start by saying
that. Just fine in the sense that it
was a miscarriage. So I hope you're happy that I
don't know how to give bad news.Oh my God.

(14:16):
And a lot of people choose theirdoctor before they even see
them. So like, you're sitting there,
you're waiting for your physical, They fucking make you
wait like 45 minutes. They don't even know what
they're doing half the time. And then all of a sudden the
door swings open. The guy's got to dip his head
down under the actual door. Just remove your pants please.
My God. Your balls are small.
Yeah, your hands are huge. I had a.

(14:39):
Cold in here. Reverse situation.
When I went to the doctor in Florida, the chick was Cuban and
she was so hot and I was just like but she didn't give me a
physical. She knew I wanted it too mad.
I was like, so she's like, no. She's like I'm a dare.
I never told you to take your clothes off.
Why are they all? Yeah, well, no.
She scheduled me with another person and they were all ugly.

(15:02):
So we're filling a cavity and you're like, God damn right you
are. So in 1993, the novel Jurassic
Park was adapted for the screenplay by Michael Crichton
himself, which a lot of writers don't like to do.
It's a different medium, you know, a lot of artists are pure
and they're like, I have my my way of writing.

(15:22):
So it's interesting that he actually did that.
I feel like technology helped. We're caught up to where he
could kind of make it the way hewanted to, perhaps, right?
Universal Studios won the bidding war for the rights to
make the film. And Steven Spielberg, who I
often go up against in this podcast or being a pederist.

(15:42):
Whoa. What a sex pest to female
children, especially the the lead girl in this movie.
No shit, he I don't want to get into.
It Cliff notes, those are going to be on the Kyle notes for the
Patreon. Wow.
Yeah, Creighton and Spielberg had actually met 20 years
earlier when Creighton was touring Universal Studios ahead

(16:03):
of a big adaptation of his novelThe Andromeda Strain, and a
young Steven Spielberg was the tour guide, which.
That's insane. That's.
Hilarious. That's awesome, Hurricane Aniki.
So before we talk about the stars of Jurassic Park that
we've lost over the years, let'sfirst talk about the biggest
obstacle the franchise has ever faced.
Appropriately enough, it was Mother Nature herself who almost

(16:25):
put an end to the movie franchise before it started.
Life almost found a way. While filming on the Hawaiian
island of Kauai in September 1992, Hurricane and Nikki hit
the island, reaching Category 4,which I believe is the worst.
No CAT5 I think might be the. Worst.
That's a lot, though. Yeah, it's a big category.
Yeah, it's at least one more than three.

(16:46):
Dang, to this day it is the strongest hurricane ever to hit
Hawaii. Wow.
Wow, you would think Hawaii would get hit all the time being
where it is. I know the storm hit the island
on the last day of On Location filming.
Stars of the film Sam Neil, who played Alan Grant and Laura
Dern. Oh shit.
Who played Ellie Sattler? They later recalled standing on

(17:07):
the beach watching the storm approach.
Do you think we're going to be all right, Sam?
Sam Dernast? I think we might die, Laura Neil
joked. Well, I was looking.
You know what? You know what, Sam?
Maybe I just don't ask you anymore.
Yeah, maybe I was looking for a small series, a modicum of
support. We're.
Going to die here, Laura. And also he looks like he looks
like the kind of guy who's goingto give you that news and it's

(17:29):
going to be true. It's.
Going to be very he. Looks like a doctor.
Right. Thankfully, the cast and crew
evacuated. They were evacuated to safety by
helicopter. Wow, and imagine how scary that
was during a hurricane. Fucking helicopter is scary
during a normal death. Yeah, it's being flung around in
the air. Totally.
This movie better be an Oscar winner.

(17:50):
Yes, seriously. Pilot Fred Sorensen, who
actually played the part of Jock, the pilot who saves
Indiana Jones in the opening scene of the movie Raiders of
the Lost Ark? He's the one that took him off,
which that's pretty crazy. Like, Oh my God, you're the guy
from Indiana Jones. You're actually fucking taking
us out of here. Turns out I don't know how to
fly a helicopter at all. I'm just an actor like you guys.
Best of. Luck we get enough momentum,

(18:11):
we'll get there, yeah. Yeah.
They say fly into the storm. It makes it fly past you.
Past. Yeah, exactly.
Which is what they say. That is what they say.
The eye of the storm is the calmest.
Yeah. It is so weird.
The cast and crew spent the night in a hotel basement.
Wow, that's fun. Which crazily enough, a lot of
places I didn't realize in America they don't have

(18:32):
basements. Like on the East Coast.
We all have basements. Yeah, on the West Coast,
California that sometimes, most times no basement.
No basement. Basement it they do they back
alley it. Yeah, Back alley at Midwest.
All basement all the time. I love a good basement.
I love a. Good basement?
How? How do you have a childhood
without falling off of your basement entrance door?
Where do you hide when you're trying to run away from your

(18:52):
parents before they you know as they scream at you like everyone
has their place in the basement?Right.
Totally. That's the best place to get
drunk in an unfinished basement.Exactly.
Yeah. The actor Richard Attenborough,
who played the character of JohnHammond, who he was reported to
have slept through the entire storm.
Yes, he probably just listened to his brother's voice.
Yeah. David Attenborough, He's the one

(19:13):
who does like planet Earth and all that.
Yeah, yeah, what an amazing. But he is.
He does put me right to sleep. That must be his inner
monologue. But I'll win some planet Earth
and just. Just start.
Hearing him and it's I'm. That's exactly what I would have
done. I would have slept through it,
too. I haven't had any earthquake
that we've had here in LA since I've been here.
Never woke up. Yeah, I always sleep through
them. I've also slept through

(19:34):
hurricanes in Miami, right? Yes, just fall asleep.
I'm a fainting goat too. Just fall asleep on a plane.
Turbulence. I go to sleep.
Let's just figure this out through a nap.
Do you think that David Attenberg likes that?
It's a compliment where it's like every time you speak I fall
asleep. Like do you think he was just
like, I just wish one person. Can you, can you stay awake?
I've been trying to tell you what I wanted to say.
It was really important. Super important.

(19:54):
Yeah. Yeah.
I fall asleep to you. Thank you.
No. Sorry, sorry, sorry.
It's your voice. It's fucking.
It's always puts me to sleep. Better than melatonin?
Oh my God, Kyle took some of that today for some reason.
You. Don't take melatonin at.
The time I know it trips me out at night.
You know that now. Lesson learned.
When Steven Spielberg asked him how he slept through the whole

(20:14):
night, the English born Attenborough responded.
Dear boy, I survived the Blitz. Oh yeah, wow.
The. Blitz, the Chicago Bear Blitz.
Yeah. I mean, that doesn't mean that
could also be reversed where he has massive PTSD and then he
wakes up shitting himself, throwing up on the wall.
So I'm not really. But you know, Richard.
Wow. That's probably why they talk so

(20:36):
calmly to overcompensate for it.True.
Sadly, Hurricane Aniki claimed the lives of seven Islanders.
Damages exceeded 3.1 billion with AB.
I don't like that. I'm not loving it.
I'm not loving that at all. Much of the Jurassic Park set
was destroyed and the final day of filming was cancelled, and a

(20:57):
few planned scenes were never actually filmed.
Wow, no shit. That'd be so interesting to see
what it would have. Been.
I know. Nature found a way to edit the
movie and the movie is fantasticand it's fantastic.
What if the storm never happenedand the movie comes out and
everyone's just like there was 4scenes that made no fucking?
Sense Yeah, what the fuck was that?

(21:18):
Have happened. Actual footage of the hurricane
was used in the final cut of thefilm, which is that's pretty
cool. Yeah, I was going to say that
they use that at all. They did.
Richard Attenborough so Speakingof the actor behind John
Hammond, the Lord Lord the. Lord.
The Lord himself, Richard Attenborough, was born in on
August 29th, 1923 in Cambridge, England.

(21:38):
I learned this about the Lord thing, though.
It's just like the Hollywood star of fame, right?
You got to pay for it. You got to pay for it.
You got to be recommended by like 5 or 6 other people that
are, you know, do those controversial things behind
closed doors. It's so really anyone, not
anyone. But if you really want to be a
Lord, you can figure out how to become a Lord.
You you can send away for it. I think they had TV commercials

(21:59):
that are like you can own a footof land.
Yep. And become a Lord.
My mom owned a star which I don't think exists.
My my Nana did that for my sister and not me.
Why were they so mean to you? I don't know, that is funny.
I mean, I think I actually take it as a compliment that I didn't
get ripped off. She didn't get ripped off on
behalf of me. That's true.

(22:21):
I still wouldn't mind a star, but.
They're not up, they're not there.
They just, they print out a piece of paper, they go, you go,
where's my star? They go right.
There, it's the one. It's the one with the
coordinates of 1234 base. Pick one lady, you gave me 50.
Bucks on the kilometers and meters if you look a little over
to the right of the Milky Way. It's just to the left of that.

(22:41):
It's just to the well, it made my mother smile, so that's all
that matters. That's good, I guess.
You guys just ruined by stars. For me, it's not.
No, it's not real, Jerry. That was a scare of.
Course it's a scare. Well, there's.
So many of them. Of course you can assign one to
each human. It is the female.
It's like, I don't. It's the equivalent of buying a

(23:01):
porn star's fart. It is.
There's nothing there. Or like it's not there.
It's bathwater. Someone's bath.
Well, at least bathwater. You might get something.
Yeah, the fart is just broccoli steam.
Right. That they just can't.
Oh wow. That's actually that's.
Actually pretty smart, yeah. I do like it.
No, actually. Selling my farts.
There is an only fan girl that doesn't wear the underwear she

(23:21):
claims to wear. She just puts a little tuna
juice and I'm not even kidding, in in the underwear.
So people like stuff it in theirmouths.
Like I could taste you. That's wow, morons.
Morons for being like wow. Well, she really does taste
exactly like specifically albacore tuna with a little
olive oil. Bumblebee Tuna.

(23:42):
Apologies to Richard Adenboroughfor going on that diet, all
right. Sorry, Lord.
So he is the patriarch of the Jurassic Park franchise if there
ever was 1. He was 69 years old when filming
the original Jurassic Park movie.
By far the oldest actor on set. A 69.
Nice He he portrayed the character John Hammond, which we

(24:03):
know the park's cynical founder and the white bearded
grandfather of the park's two young visitors, the old.
Wise men. Yeah, he was awesome in this
role, that. Was so good.
He's also the only actor who hassince passed away who appeared
in two different franchise films.
He appeared in the original and the sequel, The Lost World.
Jurassic Park. No.

(24:25):
Shit, it's really changed a lot since the first one.
Yeah, and it's true, he did in fact survive the German Blitz
during World War 2. In 1940, at the age of 17,
Richard joined the Royal Air Force and flew in numerous
bombing raids over Nazi occupiedEurope.
Hell yeah. The German Blitz, huh?
Yeah, interesting. I I thought it was the the the

(24:46):
what did you? What did you think it was?
Loading. No, nothing.
I thought it was nothing. And yeah, so he sat in the rare,
rare the rear or tail gunner position and filmed the bombings
as part of the Royal Air Force'sfilm unit.
So he was filming. So yeah, that is, that's the

(25:08):
real big weapon there. Interesting getting it all on
camera. If I could choose one thing to
be in, I wouldn't have the camera, but with the gun, the
gunner of a on a helicopter or something.
That seems like fun. At least in the video games I
play, whenever they have a chapter where you get to be a
gunner, it's really fun because you never run on ammo.
And you don't have to drive. And you don't.
Have to drive. Bouncing over dumpsters and
shit. Yeah, but it's probably

(25:29):
different in real life, Probablya bunch of trauma.
And yeah. Very difficult, exhilarating.
Well after the war, Attenboroughentered the world of acting full
time. He appeared in over 70 roles on
TV and the big screen, includingThe Great Escape in the original
Doctor Dolittle. Oh shit.
Yeah, before famously retiring from acting in 1978.
So he was done acting for a longtime.

(25:52):
What a life. He then took a seat in the
directors chair and won two Oscars for his film Gandhi in
1982 for Best Director and Best Picture.
Can't do that anymore. Yeah, dude, wait, he was.
Gandhi. No Gandhi.
He was the director. Oh my, what was What was the
name of the Gandhi want to say It was Ben, Ben, Ben.

(26:12):
Oh, it was. Was it a white man?
It was a white man. Yeah, yeah.
That's why I said you can't do that anymore.
Yeah, that's what I thought. He was Ben Kingsley.
Ben. Kingsley, pretty much.
That's right, they made him super.
Tan and. He was fucking Gandhi, Oh my
God. Yeah, they just chose a bald,

(26:33):
skinny guy. We're like you.
You're good enough. Let's go.
Also, our next film has a bunch of Ethiopians.
You're in. Let's go.
Just casting. Like Vince McMahon.
Yeah. You're.
You're Samoan. You're Chinese now.
Let's go. What?
The hell? Steven Spielberg eventually drew
him out of retirement for Jurassic Park and The Lost
World. In the Jurassic Park films, his

(26:55):
character John Hammond is a Carney slash businessman slash
showman, a modern day PT Barnum who begins with a flea circus
before hiring scientists who bioengineer an elephant the size
of a house cat, which Hammond uses to convince investors to
fund an even greater project. Wow.
Were flea circuses like a real thing?

(27:15):
Watch fleas jump around. I think, I mean, I think it
would probably was, you know, you know, humans have this weird
need to put shit in jars. Right.
I'd watch. I mean, I got some, yeah.
I would watch it. Nothing else to do.
Only fans farts, you know? Yeah.
Only fans. Fleas.
Yeah. Only fleas.
Got a chick with bedbugs who sells the bedbugs that she
sleeps on every night. I mean I could just do that.

(27:36):
I don't have bedbugs nor will I ever want them.
Just. Berry.
Yeah, you got Berry. I got the new batch of Bonnie
Blues. Fucking bedbugs.
I think that's called crabs. Yeah, yeah.
In the Michael Crichton novel, Hammond is ultimately killed by
his own hubris. He was like much more of a
villain. In the actual novel, he.

(27:57):
Yeah, and he wasn't that in the movie.
No, he was just kind of bumbly, but he was, he was a little
corrupt. He knew what he was getting
himself into at a certain point.Yeah, I mean, he created a death
park, yeah. Right.
After the events of the novel unfold and the park is seemingly
returned to a sense of normalcy,Hammond takes a stroll down the
road. He's caught off guard by the the
He's caught off guard by the roar of AT Rex.

(28:19):
Not realizing the roar was actually piped in audio he
designed for the park to use to entertain the future guests, he
trips and stumbles down a hillside.
There he is injured and slowly eaten alive by a pack of
dinosaurs called the Comsogganathis.
The old comsos. The old comsignathis.

(28:39):
These are tiny carnivorous dinosaurs that lived from 150 to
145,000,000 years ago, and like Hammond's little elephant, we're
about the size of a house cat. OK, Yeah.
Yeah, those little things were crazy.
They killed off that little chick, too.
Was it like a little girl that they killed off right at the
beginning? Like a kid, Like a kid.
Or something. Yeah.

(29:01):
They'd be eaten, I say. They'd be eaten.
Maybe eaten. They'd be eaten.
They will eat the fuck out of. You of the original one, Yeah.
Shit, but in the book he dies earlier.
Yeah, I see. OK.
So he falls down and gets eaten by all these little things.
Yeah, he gets his comeuppance. By the Comasaurus, yeah.
In the film, he actually, he realizes instead that he's, you

(29:24):
know, a fool. He realizes his folly, he
abandons the park, and he rescues guests and survivors
along the way. In The Lost World film, Hammond
even attempts to right the wrongs of his past by protecting
the remaining dinosaurs on Jurassic.
Park, just stop making. Dinosaurs.
Yeah, just cut, cut your losses,pal.
He. Just.
Yeah, end it. This whole thing didn't have to
happen. Yeah.

(29:46):
According to Ian Malcolm, who isthe character played by Jeff
Goldblum, he states that he goesfrom capitalist to naturalist in
just four years. You can be a naturalist and a
capitalist. 1's an economic principle and the other one's
about, you know, the environment.
You can be an you could be an environmental capitalist.
That's why you replant trees when they're gone.

(30:07):
Jeff Goldblum is fun, but I would just say I don't know what
that was like. I feel like that got him late in
college. Yeah, from a college.
Was a scientist and also these were his lines that he was.
Giving yeah, it was a character.It wasn't him.
Oh, I see. OK.
Gotcha. It does sound like something
that Jeff Goldblum would say. Right.
And then if he said it to me, I'd be like, when do I suck your
Dick? Do I suck your Dick now or
later? When do you want?
It how far do I go down on it right?

(30:29):
What do you like? Yeah, I'm a.
In his later life, Lord Richard Attenborough famously played the
role of Kris Kringle in the 1994remake The Miracle on 34th St.
OH. That one did not need to be
remade. You know they remade it.
I watched the original. Yeah, the little girls.
The girl who played Matilda. No shit?
No. Yeah, I met her a couple of

(30:49):
times. Yeah, yeah.
Nice gal. She's a good.
Friend and one of my good friends, yeah.
Wow, She used to do a podcast out in New York City all the
time. Yeah, that's.
Cool. So, yeah, Mr. Richard
Attenborough, the Lord himself, he died in 2014 at the age of 90
after complications from a fall.Which that sucks.
I mean, I guess you want to reach the age where you can die
from falling down. Yeah.

(31:10):
Technically his that his character kind of foreshadowed
his death. Yeah.
Because he fell down. I mean, he got eaten by
dinosaurs afterwards, but. He first fell.
But he did first fall. Yeah.
Yeah, there's a correlation. Correlation there.
Art imitating. Life.
Life imitating. Art, Art imitating.
I think once you get to the point where when you fall, you

(31:30):
die. Just about time.
You did it. You did it.
Did the damn thing. He reached the rank of Sergeant
in the Royal Air Force and was giving given the British title
of Lord in 1993. Yeah, I'd be.
And he was, If I, if I killed a bunch of people, and this guy's
also a Sergeant, and I'm a Sergeant, be like, what did you
do? I took a bunch of pictures.
I'd be real pissed. Yeah, I'm just saying I'd be.
So true like. You took pictures?

(31:51):
Took pictures bro. I have Nazis scalps on my
fucking wall. No, yeah, but after the pictures
I actually was in like a lot of films.
All right, you're cool. Yeah.
All right, fine. You're a Lord.
Lord, I bow down to you. Lord, Lord.
Lord. Oh yeah, Lord.
He also served as the president of the Royal Academy of Dramatic
Art, or RADA. Rada Rada.

(32:13):
Not to be confused with or AMDA.What is it with these fucking
art schools with terrible, terrible acronyms?
Yeah, I don't know, add an end to that when you got NAMBLO,
which that's not good, probably depends.
On how who you ask but. Yeah, probably a lot of
directors in there too. Yeah.
For sure. And the British Academy of Film
and Television Arts, which is BAFTA.

(32:35):
There's so many. There he goes.
RADA, BAFTA. Jeez.
Louise. All right.
Fun fact here, Richard is the older brother of Sir David
Attenborough, the British historian, naturalist and
filmmaker most known as the narrator of numerous BBC nature
and animal documentaries. The greatest of all time.
We see here is the baby octopus tries to slowly crawl out of the

(32:56):
octave vagina. Octopus.
Octa. The Octina.
The Octina Good wait. The Octo Sea, yeah.
This a little goldfish. Like he's so cute.
He and he and Werner Herzog are like the two that I'm just like,
yeah, you know, yeah. They they see Morgan Freeman as
the voice of God, which also passes.
But I'm gonna go. He literally was the voice of
God. He was the voice of God, who's

(33:16):
almighty, but also Werner Herzogen.
Yeah. Yeah.
God like voice? Absolutely.
I can see that too. And then we move on to Joffrey
Brown. Joffrey.
Yes. Yo how do you spell his?
Name. That's an interesting way to
spell that name. JOPHERY.
Oh my God, his parents just set.Him.
Joe Perry. Joffrey, I love Joe Perry, also

(33:37):
a friend of mine. Joffrey just sounds like his
parents were like, you're going to be tough because you're going
to be bullied, like a lot, Joffrey.
Joffrey Pop Quiz Do you know thename?
Do you know the name of the first character to die in a
Jurassic Park movie? Wasn't it?
It was Newman, wasn't it? No, he's, he's at the end of the
first one. Oh.

(33:58):
He isn't. Yeah, I thought he was the.
Barbasol yeah, that's at the end.
He's yeah, that's at the end. Freaking the fuck out.
He's kind of get away, no? She's like he's he has to be
douchey, throw up the whole. Movie exactly.
Yeah Dang, yeah. First, he's got to do the.
He's got to deliver the mail, Jerry.
Right. Right, Newman.
Love it. The answer to this question is

(34:19):
Joffrey Brown. OK.
Played by the actor Joffrey Brown.
Oh shit, for real? Yes, Joffrey Brown essentially
played himself in this role. What?
What? He was the gatekeeper who dies
in the intense opening scene of the movie, captured while
transferring the Velociraptor from its cage to its pen, being
eaten alive to the sound of his companion screaming.
Shooter Shooter. Wow, why was it himself and not

(34:43):
like a character? I don't know.
That's kind. Of cool to just be yourself I
guess. Yeah.
As long as you don't really die.Yeah, my mom was a character in
a movie, but she wasn't playing herself.
Somebody else played her, but itwas her name.
Did say these sentences in some sort of order that made no
sense. At some point before it was
still trying to figure out what you mean.
It was a beautiful movie. No one died, no children got

(35:04):
molested. It was just a nice movie about a
beautiful Boston day. Yeah.
On an island. On an island.
That's nice. Yeah, that's.
Pretty good. It would be nice if one movie
based in Boston Boston didn't involve a based bait heist
molestation. Italian mafia?
There's no way. You Irish mafia.
Irish Mafia the. Show Kevin can fuck himself is

(35:26):
kind of doesn't involve any of those things, but a little bit
of murder does go on. Yeah, yeah.
Well, every place has a little bit of murder.
Just a little bit. It's Boston.
Yeah. Of all the minor characters in
the Jurassic Park franchise, thecareer of Joffrey Brown is
perhaps the most eclectic of them all.
Born in Grambling, LA on January22nd, 1945, his early life saw

(35:47):
him being pulled in two very different directions.
His father was a lifelong baseball fan and pushed his sons
to play ball. It's real hard.
It's real hard to do that though.
Yeah, you're going to grow up togo to the MLB where there's only
like 500 people that get into it.
I don't think so. Yeah, it's tough.
I have a better chance of being eaten by a dinosaur.
Dad, wouldn't you believe it? I was.

(36:09):
I was. Joffrey ended up being the most
athletically talented of the 8 count EM8 Brown children.
So yeah, this dad was not tryingto have kids because he wanted
to have a family and love them. He was just like one out of the
8, just like baseball, like a baseball player.
If he hits one out of eight, he's going to the Hall of Fame.
Yeah, OK. He's like, how else are people
going to know I get laid unless I fucking have kids?

(36:30):
Every single time. Seriously.
That's how old people are weird.They're fucking.
Old people, they're just like, yeah, we're going to have sex.
Yeah, there's going to be a kid at the end of it, that's what.
Happens. The world's going to know the.
World. 'S going to know.
After high school, Joffrey enrolled at Grambling College
and became a pitcher for the baseball team from 1964 to 1966.
So he tried, yeah. Although he never graduated

(36:51):
college, he was scouted by many teams in the MLB.
In 1965, he was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates, but Brown
decided to stay in college for another year.
No shit. This happens all the time in
baseball. There's like so many people that
get drafted. It's like 15 rounds.
It's amazing. So because you get, it's not
like NBA or NFL, you're not guaranteed a spot basically.

(37:13):
No, yeah, OK, so instead of likegoing and playing single a ball
and fucking bum fuck Louisiana somewhere, they'll be like, no,
I'm just going to stay in college and make sure that the
next time I get drafted it's going to be higher and I get
more money. So.
You can get drafted. Again.
Oh yeah. Yeah.
Gotcha. Yeah.
That's a good so he was smart. He was exactly that's.
Yeah, it is tough though, especially back then because you
could get injured. Yeah, insurance.

(37:35):
It's a ballsy thing to do. I get what these kids skip
college for basketball altogether and just go right to
the pros. Yeah.
Yeah. The money on the line.
Yeah. And your young body, the youth.
Yeah, they're young bodies. It's a young, young body they
need. No, Kate, No, just like Spry.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, that too. Oh, sure, sure, sure, sure,
sure. So what do you like watching
basketball? Mostly.

(37:55):
They're young bodies. Oh, that's a little creepier
than I thought it was going to be.
Who's your least favorite LeBron.
He's a real fucking not a young body.
Anymore, not a young body. Anymore.
Man, it's all. Creaking.
Cracking. Oh man, so in 1966 he was
drafted by the Boston Red Sox, baby.
And then he told them to go fuckhimself.

(38:18):
Oh, God, Boston, huh? I'm just going to stay here at
Grambling, yeah. What He decided to stay in
school again? I'll keep my day, Jeff.
The Yankees just draft me already, please.
Something actually happened in the late summer of 1966.
The Chicago Cubs called, and Joffrey Brown was like, let's
go, let's go. There we go.

(38:38):
And signed with the team from Chicago's North Side. 66 wasn't
They were kind of good back then, probably before they had
their one little championship in2016 or 50.
They were throwing Dicks in 66. What?
That was the team slogan. Throwing Dicks in 60.
Come on down to family friendly Wrigley.
We're throwing Dicks in 60. Six Wait, did Dicks have a

(39:00):
different meaning? What?
Does that mean? It means whatever you want it to
mean. I what?
Them throwing Dicks. If I ever run for office again,
I've got to run in a year that rhymes with six.
Yeah, so. You'll be throwing Dicks in
2066. Exactly.
It's coming. Up next year, 2026.

(39:22):
Throwing Dicks in 2026 We're. Throwing Dicks in 2026?
Let's go. Oh my God.
Next. Year good.
So Joffrey ended up spending twoseasons in the minor leagues
before finally being called up by the Cubs.
He pitched in one Major League game, September 21st, 1968, in
relief for the Cubs against the Pirates.

(39:43):
The highlight of his one inning in the Major League saw him
intentionally walk Roberto Clemente.
That's a smart choice. That's a smart choice.
He's a generational talent and MVPA 15 time All Star in Hall of
Famer. Yep, Clemente.
So he has to do the that's doingthe job.
Like in wrestling, you're told to lose.
That's you. You're doing the job got.

(40:04):
It. He goes up there, they tell him
to walk him and then they're like, fuck this, you got to go
back down to the minors. Very rude.
Very rude. That's fucked.
And exactly what I talked about earlier happened.
He went down to the minor leagues for one more season,
which he had to retire after because he suffered a shoulder
injury. That young body wasn't so young
anymore. Not no more, no.

(40:27):
So after pursuing the dreams hisfather had for him, he now
followed in the steps of his older brother Calvin.
Man, now you're making me think Varsity Blues.
Yeah, I don't want your life. Your.
Life. In the pursuit of this, he would
find his true calling in life. His brother, Calvin Brown had
already established himself as aleading stuntman in Hollywood,

(40:47):
helping found the Black Stuntman's Association.
Let's. Go and working as who other than
Bill Cosby's stuntman? For what?
Ghost dad? I don't think of Bill.
Does Bill Cosby need a stuntman?Well, in 1965 to 1968 he was on
ATV show called I Spy. So there was a little bit what

(41:09):
the. Hell was that.
Action I see. Wonder what I spy?
I spy a sleeping lady. I spy someone that wants to do
something with me. I guess so.
To his credit, Joffrey had already had minor roles in TV
and film, appearing on TV alongside his brother on Said I

(41:29):
Spy. He was also on Arrest and Trial,
and later in the black Blaxploitation film Coffee I've
Seen That 1973. He soon began outdoing his older
brother Calvin in stuntman parts, performing in the James
Bond film Live and Let Die, Liveand Let Die, Smokey and the

(41:52):
Bandit, as well The Blues Brothers and Scarface.
Get out of here. Ohh, what?
It was working, yeah. Hell of a resume.
His career continued to climb with roles in the A-Team,
National National Lampoon's Vacation Commando, Lethal
Weapon, Die Hard, Ghostbusters 2.
It's crazy. He's killing it.
Everything. But This is why it's so

(42:12):
important. This is why.
This is why Brad Williams, the comedian, was so mad with the
remake of Snow White, because there's no little folks in it.
And he's like, you got to think about the trickle down.
Yeah. It's like you got stunned
people, you got all this shit. So anyway, yeah, it's.
A huge thing to take on. It is and without without black
representation, he wouldn't havehad a job.

(42:32):
And so it's important to think about.
It's bigger than just what you see on the screen.
That's right, he continued with work in Tango and Cash Hook.
Get Shorty eye for an Eye. And most curiously, and this,
this is crazy, as Sandra Bullock, stunt double in Speed,
when her character jumps the busover the gap in the freeway.
That's hilarious. Literally no one.

(42:54):
Turns into a black man. No one wanted to do it.
No one. They do that like.
OK, in. Deuce Bigalow, where he jumps
out the window and ends up beinga little person that jumps in,
yeah, goes into the water, just goes.
That is so funny Joffrey. Literally no, no stunt woman
wanted to do this one. Can you just put this wig on?

(43:17):
It's not even, it's not that I'mthe wrong gender.
I'm like, you know, I'm like black, right?
Yeah, yeah, it. Doesn't matter.
No, it doesn't matter. Just put the blonde wig on.
We're gonna put long sleeves on you.
Everything's gonna be covered. You just put on the gloves.
Put on these gloves. It'd be fine.
I would watch it if he was therestunt double in the blind side
and he actually just played her role.
That'd be amazed. How the movie was horrible.

(43:38):
The later part of his Hollywood career saw Geoffrey Brown become
Morgan Freeman's de facto stunt double.
So that's like, what's his face Brad Pitt in?
Once. Once Upon a time in Hollywood,
yeah. What are you?
Oh, that's right. Career for one guy, yeah.
Oh, that's really. Cool.
Yeah. So he was performing in place of
Freeman in such films as Along Came a Spider, which is another

(44:00):
one. Nancy, Tom.
Clancy or Pat Pattinson. I believe yeah, one of them.
Yes, it was a thriller. I love a good thriller.
Yeah, me. Too the sum of all fears, which
I thought was very fun. It's about nuclear explosion, is
it not? Yeah.
Yes, at the end, we're all toast.
Oh, what? Yeah.
Spoiler dream. What?
I'm a piece of toast? I thought it was a person.

(44:24):
Thank you. Dream Catcher and the bucket
list Joffrey Brown died in 2014 at the age of 68 from
complications of cancer. Too young?
Come on, there's a fun fact about Mr. Brown.
He was awarded the Taurus Lifetime Achievement Award for
his accomplishment and stunt work and stunt coordination,
contributing to an unbelievable 400 plus movies and TV show.

(44:46):
That is. Insane.
I would so much rather talk to the stuntman than the star that
they're hunting for. Oh, for sure.
I just don't care about, like, I'm sure Morgan Freeman, it's
exciting to speak with someone, but I want to know about the
balls and everything else. Like, yeah, yeah.
The people who did the stunts for Home Alone, I watched an
interview with them and they were crazy.
This before they apparently theyhad like any rules and the guy

(45:07):
was like, how do you fall down the stairs?
He's like you throw yourself down the stairs.
Yeah, literally. Yeah.
That's just it. That's it.
They're just like, they just hired me, 'cause I'm the I'm the
guy that was like, I'll do it, Yeah.
I'll do that and you. Can't have the lead guy walking
around with a black guy when it's press time.
Crazy, but I'll do it. I'll do it now, yeah.
I just get smoked in the face with an iron, it's fine.

(45:27):
Sure. When Geoffrey Brown's character
died in the opening scene of Jurassic Park, which actor was
it yelling shoot her, shoot her?The answer is Bob Peck.
I didn't even let you try it again.
Yeah. No, I have no.
Idea. I was going to try to guess.
But am I supposed to know who Bob Peck is?
Who's Bob Peck? Well, Bob Peck.
He played the game warden and head of Animal Security at.
Draft played the gay warden. Game the gay game warden Yeah,

(45:51):
got it out of South Park. Got.
It that character's name is Robert Muldoon.
So they gave him a name, but they didn't give the other guy a
name? Yeah, they gave him the name
Muldoon. Muldoon.
Muldoon, Muldooned. In the novel, Muldoon is written
as a drunk who would rather blowup some dinosaurs with a rocket
launcher instead of saving the day.
It's a fun guy who would rather have a good time than fuck over

(46:13):
everybody and make a dinosaur. Yeah, there you go.
Thank you. It is in the film, however,
Muldoon is an even headed dead serious professional who has
only the best intentions for thesafety of the people around him,
despite the very tough positionsthis character is placed in.
Boring. Loser.
Come on. The character of Robert Muldoon

(46:34):
is tasked with containing the dinosaurs, protecting the
guests, rescuing children, and returning electricity to the
park and island. Which is very important because
all the gates are electric. That's a.
Lot. Boogie woogie woogie.
There's a video game where you do that, but I'm blanking on the
name of it. Electric Fence Simulator, 3000.
Yeah, that one. It's also the only thing that
pleasures my wife. Hey, how was your wife?

(46:58):
She's not. She doesn't know.
She's melted to a fence. Yeah, she's really enjoying the
apartment inside my imagination.Yeah, I don't know her yet.
I haven't met her yet. Yeah.
Well ultimately this character meets his fate in the toothy
jaws of two clever girls pair ofvelociraptors that out hunt the
hunter. Oh, because that's what he
called them. Clever girl.

(47:19):
Clever girl, that guy. That, that was his last words.
Yeah, When I get murdered, that's what I'm going to say.
Clever girl. Yeah, it's me at a hustler club.
Clever girl, Stop my nuts for one last time and take all my
money and. Ripped apart by a pack of
lesbians. Hey, you know what?
I'll take it. And that's a dream.
What a way to go out. Let's go.
Clever girls. Clever girls.

(47:40):
It does hurt though. It does, It does hurt.
It hurts. I thought it was going to be
more sexual worth. It in real life.
I'm paying for this, right? Great hourly.
We're stealing your wallet after.
Him. Ouch, Ouch.
In real life, Bob Peck was an icon of the British stage in
screen. Born Robert Peck on August 23rd,
1945 in Leeds, England, he beganacting at the age of 15.

(48:04):
He was a regular with the Royal Shakespeare Company.
Oh shit, it's legit appearing onstage with fellow icons such as
Judi Dench and Ian McClellan. What?
The fuck, Sir Ian McKellen. Yeah.
Thank you very. Much, Sir.
Not even a Lord? Yeah, is is Sir higher than
Lord? I'll check it.
Out it is because he was knighted by the queen herself.
Wow, yeah. That's some heavy shit.

(48:26):
I'll be knighted by the Queen, yeah.
You can't. She's dead.
Oh. It's Meghan Markle now.
Oh my God, I'm actually fine. She'll just slap you in the
face. No, according to AI overview,
Lord is generally considered higher than Sir.
Generally. Generally is that even that
sounds loose. Generally that sounds pretty.

(48:48):
But you get, but you don't get. But yeah, you don't get actually
chosen by the royal family if you're a Lord.
No, it's all stupid. Yeah, it's all pretend.
There is. I'm a Lord.
I'm a Lord. You're a Lord.
I'm a Lord. Kyle's a Lord.
Lord dog Jerry's a Lord. Everyone listening is a freaking
Lord. Yeah, Lord yourself.
Let's go Lord yourself why the hell not, yeah?

(49:11):
He was nominated 3 times for theLaurence Olivier Award for Best
Actor and won a BAFTA for his part in The Edge of Darkness in
1985. OK, we got a BAFTA dub.
Yeah, and he saw his mainstream success as one of the most
remarkable characters in the original Jurassic Park movie,
but it was short lived. He died of cancer in 1999 at the

(49:32):
age of 53. Everyone be dying too young.
And a lot of cancer. Yeah, what is this half of
people going to get cancer? God, I hope not.
That's what they say. It's like half of people.
But then not everybody dies fromit, of course.
Yeah, but I don't know. They could have tried to cure
that instead of making dinosaurscome back to life.
That's. True that.
Would have been nice. They could have probably paid

(49:53):
attention a little more on that end.
They don't seem to care. Instead of just like bringing
dinosaurs back. The problem is when people get
cancer, they always die. So they're just like, we'll wait
until you stop complaining. You're gonna die soon enough.
Right, right, right. But for now, who wants to see a
woolly mam? I was ready to bring those
suckers back. Let's go.
'Cause we got movement and on that.

(50:14):
Pretty cool. Oh, it's hairy and really big.
Cool. Yeah.
A lot bigger than regularly, I mean than we thought.
If dinosaurs did exist now, people would so not care within
a month. Like the platypus is still
around. We don't talk about it at all.
And. It's the weirdest fucking thing
in existence. It lays eggs and it's
technically a mammal. Weird.
It's got a beak. It makes no sense.

(50:35):
It doesn't make any sense. It looks like it should be
saying kill me at all times at all times.
Like it looks like it hurts. We just live like all the sea
creatures that we see constantly.
We just live. We would have just lived with
them. I mean the whales, their fucking
whales are insane. What they're up to, what are
they? What are they doing?
They're. Doing more?
Blowing. Yep, whale shit.

(50:56):
That's it. That's it.
Doing. Yeah, anyway.
Well, unfortunately, Bob Pack, he left behind a wife of 16
years and three children. But what a life.
What a life. Indeed.
Nice. What?
Have you done not any of that? Not.
Any of that, Yeah. I didn't have a wife and three
kids. I wish I got drafted by the Red
Sox. I wish I was good at stunts.

(51:16):
Yeah, that too. Well, now moving on to Pete
Passelwaith, Passelwaith, Passelwaith.
Who? Yeah, perhaps the most
distinguished of any actor appearing in the Jurassic Park
franchise, Pete Puzzlewaith, OH took on the role of big game
hunter Roland Tembo in The Lost World.
Jurassic Park. Ah yes, the bad guy.

(51:40):
Which is 1997's sequel to the original film.
Tembo is an alpha hunter hired by the evil remnants of John
Hammond's Ingen Corporation. Which that's almost a slur.
Ingen. Ingen, Yeah.
Yeah. Oh, it is interesting.
Ingen, Ingen. I always end.
Before I used to think they weretrying to say engines and I was
like why do they call them? Interesting.

(52:02):
Yeah, so the Ingen Corporation hired him to hunt down and
capture the remaining dinosaurs at Jurassic Park.
But isn't that? Why is that?
Bad. I mean, yeah, it's, it's all
about the the framing of the movie, who's bad and who's good.
Right. Always, always is.
There's so many care. There's so many because I always
call them, what are they called?Anti Anti heroes.
Anti heroes. I always call them anti heroes

(52:23):
because these guys, they I'm like, you know, technically if
you flip the perspective. Right.
What he's doing and saying, he'skind of making sense.
Yeah, I kind of, I'm scared of those dinosaurs because they're
eating everybody and stuff. You know, they kind of did it to
themselves. You're trying to.
Oh, you're trying to collect thethe the the animals that we're
running? From right, Yeah, Go, go.
I mean, that's the please. Back in the day, if you killed a

(52:44):
lion and it was like hunting me,I'd be like, thank you.
But we just don't have to do that anymore.
We won. Exactly, exactly.
Unless it's Siegfried and Roy. Not for, not for sport.
They got fucked up. Yeah, they did.
Was it Roy or Siegfried? Yeah, one of them, yeah.
OK. They got fucked up by one of
their tigers. Yeah, his character signs on for
only one reason, to kill the male Tyrannosaurus.

(53:06):
He wants that big. He wants he wants a baby.
Let's go. Throwing Dicks at 96 + 197.
Just as the huge Dick on his wall mounted.
Throwing Dicks and collecting ATRex.
All right, and a red string to his gun.

(53:27):
By the end of the film, his mission has failed, all of his
friends are dead, and he decidesto retire from the company of
death. Well, that's a good reason to
retire. What?
She calls engine the actor himself, Pete Possuaithe was
born February 7th, 1946 in Warrington, England.
This is all English people in Hawaii.
It's. All the English people what's?

(53:47):
Going on, I don't know. What?
What is going on? I don't know.
Something. Something's going on, I'll tell
you that. I thought we fought off some
freaking war. British is going on here.
Well, the British actors are alltaking American roles.
They and they've been doing thatfor a long time, as we see.
Guard jobs isn't who they are. After heading towards the life

(54:09):
of a Catholic priest, Pete changed course in 1970 and
decided to become an actor. Which, wow, classic dichotomy
there. Well.
Priest or an actor? There's a no.
There's a Venn diagram. Yeah, there is.
Oh no, it's molestation. 7th Heaven, 7th.
Heaven. Yeah, that guy's not even in

(54:32):
jail. Yeah.
That's crazy. He's he's just hopefully being
embarrassed somewhere. Yeah, that's the scariest thing
to be publicly embarrassed. The choice paid off and he was
nominated for an Academy Award, a BAFTA, and was honored with
the title of Officer of the Order of the British Empire.
Oh my God, what? The That sounds like a Star

(54:53):
Wars. Fucking it does.
As a Jedi I was told to kill your most powerful.
Who the fuck is it? Officer of the Order of the
British Empire and not to be mistaken with Lord, but if
you're Lord section B, then it files under title of Officer of

(55:14):
Order, Yeah. And then if you fall under the
column C, where the other ones are a little bit higher, but
like not as high enough that your assistant to the officer of
the Order of the British. Right.
So you're trying to like, so you're cool, you're good.
You say you're powerful. Is that what you're?
Saying yeah, yeah. Got you, Pretty.
That's an awesome title. Yeah, I was honored with it,

(55:37):
Yeah. Really.
So it rolls off the thumb. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This was in 2004. OK, relatively recently.
Yeah, so that title can drink now. 21 all were so old, so old.
They're all dying. Everyone's dying.
Apostle Waithe was a late bloomer.

(55:58):
A late bloomer, huh? Apostle Waithe was a late
bloomer on the silver screen, his career not taking off until
the 1990s. Yes.
He had notable roles in parts ofthe films Alien 3, The Last of
the Mohicans, The Usual Suspects, Romeo and Juliet,
Amistad. Oh, remember.

(56:19):
Inception and the town. I like that.
Wow. Although inception I I'm I still
don't. I'm like fine.
I think the quarter fell over orthe top fell over.
Yeah, the top fell. Yeah, I think the top falls over
right the. Top probably does not fall over.
But then that got me to another movie.
That was the first movie I saw in theaters after Covid's

(56:39):
nightmare. And it was a little It was
horrible. Everyone just walked backwards.
What it was like, Oh my God, what is that, Washington?
So you mean the one with Yeah, John Washington?
It was so bad. It was.
Literally everyone walks backwards.
I'll find it. Patreon chats gonna come in with
it. Yeah, Patreon chat, that's for

(56:59):
you guys. It was.
So silly. Was like Chris Nolan John David
watching that movie that everyone hated.
And then, yeah, everyone, Robert.
Patson. Was in that it was huge.
It was huge. And then everyone that wanted to
seem smart that I knew that was into movies was like, I think it
was like, no, I don't think it was fucking anything.
I think it was edited poorly. Yeah, thrown together for some
reason. They were on a boat.

(57:20):
It was horrible. Anything that could happen in
action movies happens in that movie.
Backwards. Backwards.
And that was the put. A matrix in there.
Yeah. How did they do that?
I've seen that. I can do it.
I'll walk backwards right now. No, you won't.
Tom Green did it. I can do it.
That's. True.
I want to see Ben. I'll walk backwards later.

(57:41):
I'll see. You walk three steps backwards
all. Right.
Wait, that's for Patron exclusive.
Backwards man, the backwards man.
I can walk backwards fast as youcan.
Yep. Yep.
Freddie got fingered. Yeah, his voice can be heard
during the introduction to the 1997 mega hit Radio Single tub
thumping by the man Chumbawamba.Yeah, I love Chumbawamba.

(58:02):
They're amazing. I love that.
One song. I don't know any of their.
Beats. Is it tub thumping?
Yeah, tub thumping is their number one.
What's it, baby singing? I get knocked down and I get up
again. Oh my God.
But you know, oh God. The name of the movie was Tenet.
10/10. There was and I want my $10 back

(58:23):
even though $25. Yes, we got three people that
got it. Yeah, thank you.
When it comes to tub thumping and Chumbo one, but they're a
very political band. You didn't know it by that song.
Pissing the night away, yeah. Chumbo.
Yes, I swear to you they're verypolitical Wumba.
Wubba Lubba dub dub huh? That's.
You don't even want to know whatyou just said.

(58:43):
I actually know exactly what I just.
Said you just said you're about to get, you're about to cancel
us someplace. That's hilarious.
Tumba wumba dumba. I was asking for help.
OK. All right.
You obviously haven't seen Rick and Morty.
I see I haven't. I met the creator of it though.
Yeah, he's around all the time, Yeah.
Yeah, I've. Seen him nice guy in.
A couple shows. Yeah, a clip taken from the 1996

(59:05):
film Brassed Off. OK, Brassed Off.
Brassed off. I'm not doing a racist
impression. That's just anyone with a
fucking lisp. Yeah, Breath Roth about the
breath of Fossilwaith, begins the song with the monologue.
Truth is I truth is, I thought it mattered.

(59:27):
I thought that music mattered. But it But does it bollocks?
Not compared to how people matter.
Bollocks, that's that's got balls.
Bollocks, bollocks. Bollocks.
Yeah, that's a bunch of bullshitright there.
Yeah, Steven Spielberg considered Pete Possewate the
best actor in the world. I could see that.
In the world, yeah. Totally see that he was very

(59:48):
good actor. In 2011, Possewate died from
pancreatic cancer at 64 years old.
So this episode is the C is not cursed, the C is just cancer I.
Think that yeah, all these dinosaurs are made out of
asbestos because everyone's fucking dying of cancer.
That's the movie. That's the real nightmare, yeah.

(01:00:09):
Life it's fucking self. Yeah, it is.
Seriously. Life is a cruel Tyrannosaurus
Rex. It is little hands and always
aroused. Yep, can't pleasure.
Yourself. Now you need little arms.
Yeah, yeah, exactly. How do you think?
Oh man, they they must just be just like.
Fucking every tree they see. Yeah, just dragging their nuts

(01:00:30):
across the ground as hard as possible.
Also, I think that we encourage me if I'm wrong, smarter people,
but I'm pretty sure the T Rex inreal dinosaur life wasn't that
strong. Is that true?
I think that they would make fun, yeah.
It's fucking stupid looking. And it did have feathers.
It had feathers and I think it was just kind of a bitch and I
think the we people were like, oh, let's make that one like the

(01:00:51):
go to guy, but I don't think it was.
It wasn't. It's not the go to guy in my
heart. No, no.
I'll think of pterodactyl. Pterodactyl.
They're big. Cool.
Yeah, Bronchosaurus Rex. Yeah, they're cool.
The. The the Tri, the
Triceptoranatorus nonsense to the one with the three horns.
Oh, they're cool. It's.
Adorable, no? I'm partial to the Stegosaurus.
Stegosaurus. It's cool, right?

(01:01:12):
Here they got Bony plates on their back.
Yeah, Jerry's got one on the desk.
Yeah, I have a Stegosaurus here and then this one I believe is a
Velociraptor. I also have scoliosis.
Oh, good job. Dinosaurs are cool.
They are cool. Fun fact, the character Roland
Tembo was inspired by the 1978 Warren Zevon song Roland the
Headless Thompson. Gunner, yo, I love that song.

(01:01:35):
Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner talking about the man.
I listen to Warren Zevon all thetime.
He was David Letterman's favorite artist.
No shit. Yes.
Other than Norm MacDonald, yes, musician and comedian.
OK. In the song, Roland is a Roland
is an accomplished mercenary whofights in Africa and is
eventually murdered by his friend Van Owen on orders from

(01:01:58):
the CIA. Happens more than you think.
It does all the time. That's insane.
In the film The Lost World, Jurassic Park, the character
Nick Van Owen sabotages Roland by removing the bullets from his
gun before he can kill the male T Rex.
Yeah. He was a bad guy trying to do
bad things. Yo, bad boy.
Warren Zevon was awesome. He was.
He was really tiny. Oh yeah.

(01:02:20):
And he sang really like loud. But he was real small, I feel.
Like most people in entertainment are tiny like.
Dio yeah, but then sometimes yougot a six foot 9 Clancy.
That's right. Yeah, that Crichton.
I'm sorry. Crichton.
Having less of an impact on the final product, but no less
contributing to the overall iconic aesthetic of the film,
here are a couple honorable mentions from the original
Jurassic Park. OK, Richard Kylie spared no

(01:02:42):
expense, played himself as the prerecorded voice and tour guide
who entertains the guests as they venture into the park in
their self driving Ford Explorers.
OK. So he's like the DNA thing?
DNA thing. Great little little little plug
for the Ford Explorer. Fantastic vehicle.
Born in 1920. 2. Kylie was an American stage,
film and TV actor and singer. Two time Tony Award winner for

(01:03:06):
Best Actor in a Musical. He also won four Emmys and two
Golden Globes. Wow.
Dang so all these people are like super successful.
What? Player It just goes to show you
the famous actors, like they're not necessarily the best actors.
Well, yeah, yeah. There's like, there's superstars
and then there's, like, actors, right?
Real actors. The people who you recognize

(01:03:27):
their faces, but you might not know their names.
Yes, yes. And Laura Dern is still alive,
right? Yeah, she is.
Yeah, yeah, honorable mention toher because she woke so many
women's lesbian dreams up. Well, she's a lesbian in real
life, right? Yeah, yeah.
No, she's a huge, huge ally. But her little, her little
loosely buttoned down shirts in that movie, she was huge.

(01:03:47):
She was huge for the culture. And her father, Bruce Dern.
Yeah. He woke me up well.
There you go. Hey, get out of my bed.
Yeah. He was great in the movie
Nebraska. OK, wow, that movie was awesome.
Yeah, Sad. Very sad.
He was the prototype for the modern character actor eulogized
as an indispensable actor, the kind of performer who could

(01:04:09):
have, who could be called on to play kings and commoners in a
diversity of characters in between.
And I don't think it's a slur tobe called a character actor.
Some people think it's like, oh,he's just a character actor.
It's more difficult. Yeah, I think it character
actors have like a way harder job.
For sure, yeah. That's the I would love to be a
character actor, yeah. Right.
Constantly. Just like morphing yourself into

(01:04:30):
someone totally different. But I can't cuz I'm too big.
Yeah. Cuz I'm the big version of
everything. Pretty much just the 1 character
huh? Yeah.
Yeah, no one seems to be castingyet.
No. They will.
Oh, but they. Will I was supposed to produce
for a Hollywood feature with BobOdenkirk, but they didn't let me
do it yet. It's fine.
I'll come. Back I'll.

(01:04:51):
Get him would come back. Don't worry about it.
Yeah, didn't start it yet. Yeah, so this man, he died in
1999 at the age of 76. OK, at least he made it to the
70s. Yes, Thank God.
Yeah. Michael Jeter up next OK, one of
the most recognizable character actors from the 90s and 2000s,
yet most commonly remembered as That guy.

(01:05:13):
Michael Jeter played the character Udesky in Jurassic
Park 3, which occurred in 2001. It was hardly his, it was hardly
his most memorable role, but he made-up for it in a career that
spanned genres. Born on August 26th, 1952 in
Lawrenceburg, TN, Michael Jeter was a Tony and Emmy
award-winning actor. He appeared in the films Sister

(01:05:34):
Act 2, Let's Go, Waterworld, Patch Adams, The Green Mile,
which he played the guy with thepet mouse Yo and Open Range.
Yes, Waterworld. Horrible films I.
Don't think I've ever seen it. Was Waterworld the most
expensive movie ever made at that?
That's what they said. It's been on at the at the local
establishment before. Yeah, it's really bad.

(01:05:54):
They have seen it. They still have a Waterworld
show at Universal Studios. Do they like we have to get our
money back on the show alone? Yeah, my buddy's in it.
He's one of the guys that got shot out of fucking cannons.
Oh, good for him. Yeah, good for him.
He was also in The Polar Expressand most endearingly as a
character, Mr. Noodle. Oh shit, I know him on the PBS

(01:06:15):
children's series Sesame Street.Noodle.
Hi, Mr. Noodle. Mr. Noodle.
Mr. Noodle. I know Mr. Noodle.
Yes, we'll just call him Penis Guy.
Yeah, Mr. Noodle. Yeah.
He waves his Dick in the window.Mr. Noodle had some problems,
that's why he was noodly. No, Mr. Noodle isn't.
Allowed, Mr. Rock now was. He Yes.

(01:06:36):
Oh, man, Mr. Noodle's not actually allowed inside.
Yeah. Well, Jeter was gay and he met
his life partner Sean Blue in 1995.
Jeter was HIV positive and disclosed his diagnosis in a
1997 interview on Entertainment Tonight.
Wow. And I'm sure they treated it
with great respect. I'm sure they weren't like.
Yeah, why is he on a kids show? Yeah, that's fucking.

(01:06:58):
I'm sure it was controversial. Oh absolutely, because this is
the 9 days. So 90s were awesome, but there
were still some issues. Yeah, Despite this, he remained
healthy for many years and aftera long and brave fight, he died
on March 30th, 2003 at 50. Oh geez.
And thankfully HIV and AIDS is no longer a death sentence.
No, there's a lot of medicine out there now.

(01:07:21):
Live with it, yes. Still a pain in the ass I would
say. Is that a joke?
I was gonna. Say, oh, is it a Oh yeah, it's a
pain in the ass to get and it's a pain in the ass to have.
That's not very nice. Oh boy, one of the smallest,
literally yet most enduring characters from Jurassic Park
was a cartoon creation. Mr. DNA.
OK, I mixed those up. I thought that was Mr. DNA.

(01:07:42):
So the other guy was just the voice.
Mr. DNA is the one I was thinking of.
OK. He was introduced during an
exposition scene, both for the audience and the guest visiting
the park. Because Mr. DNA explains the
science behind Jurassic Park. A layman.
Yeah, he's like that, that Microsoft puff Word little.
Yeah, like a little clip, paper clip.
He's the paper clip. Well, he's a piece of DNA, but
yeah. Yes, I remember him now.
Yeah, this character was actually voiced by none other

(01:08:04):
than the great voice actor Greg Burson.
Born in 1949, Burson got an early start to his career as the
voice of the Dianetics Dianeticscommercials.
Whoa. Espousing the benefits of the
Church of Scientology. Can you imagine having to do the
the voiceover for Dianetics? Holy shit what a book.
That thing is so damn stupid. Dianetics.

(01:08:28):
Yeah, yeah, I, I went to one of the Scientology, the the one in
close to Times Square or maybe north of it.
Yeah. And they made us watch the
Dianetics like documentary aboutthis guy getting into a car
crash. And then he had to fucking read
Dianetics and his life became better.
And did you get hooked? Oh yeah.
Good. No, they were trying to get my
contact information after that and try to sell us a bunch of

(01:08:48):
books and we just ran out of there.
Yeah, like books. Yuck.
I was gonna, I I was here for the cult.
Aspect Yeah, bitch, I can't readread.
Come. On I'm trying to do all that.
He later became the second generation voice of such cartoon
favorites as Yogi Bear, Mr. Magoo, Huckleberry Hound and
Quick Draw. McGraw.
Let's. Go.
Awesome, McGraw. And he also he also did almost

(01:09:10):
every Looney Tunes character after the death of Mel Blanc,
including Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Tweety Bird,
Sylvester the Cat, Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam, Marvin the
Martian, Tasmanian Devil, Pepe Le Pepe, Speedy Gonzalez, and
Foghorn Leghorn. I love that.
Don't even say Porky Pig around Dog Jerry.
He hates Porky Pig. He does he.

(01:09:31):
Hates Porky Pig. I don't know why.
Just like bark at him a lot whenhe's on the.
Screen yes he does. That is.
So funny. Well, this is crazy.
Things take a turn here. On May 10th, 2004, Berson was
taken into custody by police following a six hour long
standoff at his home in Tahunga,Los Angeles, where he barricaded
himself inside along with three female hostages.

(01:09:52):
I mean, at least what? Why they were entertained.
I think he mostly did the voice of Foghorn and Leghorn.
I think he would be the one closest to get into a standoff
with the police. I declare I'm not coming out.
I'm a sovereign citizen. According to early reports, an
armed SWAT team was dispatched after two of his female

(01:10:14):
housemates reported that he was intoxicated, armed and allegedly
holding another female roommate hostage, which probably just
means he cornered her and was doing all the voices.
Oh my God, what a nightmare. Upon entering the residence,
authorities found a stash of firearms and during the
standoff, person shouted incoherently at the police.
One officer OK during the standoff.

(01:10:37):
During the standoff, person shouted incoherently at the
police, one officer later remarking that Burson was quote
so intoxicated it was unclear whether he was performing a
character voice or simply slurring his speech.
That's the magic of being a voice actor.
That's incredible. You can get out of AD dub doing
that. I'm shit faced OK.

(01:10:58):
Imagine just like an officer just trying to like arrest him,
but he's like, I'm I'm sorry, this is, this is serious.
This, this voice is really fucking funny.
Can't keep a straight face. It was later revealed that all
three women lived with person and none were harmed during the
incident. OK.
Well, that's good. Good.
How are you hostage in your own house?

(01:11:18):
That's a what the fuck? I don't know.
Go to bed. Hostage.
Close the door. It's like, you see when she
might close the door, she means she wants to be on the other
side of it. Yeah, she does.
But she can't come out. She's my hostage.
Just means she wants to hear Daffy Duck.
Yeah, that's sad to have three roommates at that age.

(01:11:40):
Or hostages. Yeah, roommate.
Hostage. Whatever.
The episode led to Burson being permanently blacklisted from the
entertainment business. No, what the fuck?
He died 4 years later in 2008, at the age of 58 from diabetes
and complications of alcoholism.Yes, the diabetes.
Which the diabetes is a complication of alcoholism a lot
of times. You got to be very careful, for

(01:12:02):
my blood is all good. Nice.
Yeah, what do the dodge? My blood work is fantastic.
It's practically syrup. Yeah, mine too.
My blood looks like blood. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Stan Winston is another man involved in this franchise.
Of course, the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park were not real.
I don't know if you guys knew. That I did not know that wait.

(01:12:22):
What but one man is credited with making them as realistic as
possible? That man is Stan Winston.
He was an acclaimed American special effects makeup and
artist. That man was Stan Winston.
He was an acclaimed American special effects and makeup
artist, widely regarded as one of the most influential figures

(01:12:42):
in the film industry of all time.
Born on April 7th, 1946 in Arlington, VA, he initially
pursued a career in acting before finding his true calling
in creature design in makeup. Effects so much cooler.
I met Tom Savini once, it was real neat.
I know some. Pretty awesome monster makers
out here, yeah? I know some monsters.

(01:13:03):
Yeah, that too. That too, boy.
My boy Maddie does a bunch of cool.
Shit. Oh yeah, Yeah.
Yeah, Scotty. Too after training.
Maddie, Scotty. The boys.
The boys, Tommy, Bobby, we're all fucking making monsters over
here. After training at UCLA and
apprenticing at Walt Disney Studios, Winston began to
establish began to establish himself in the 1970s.

(01:13:27):
His career reached its greatest heights in 19.
In the 1980s and 90s, he was thecreative force behind some of
cinema's most iconic characters and practical effects, including
John Carpenter's The Thing, James Cameron's The Terminator,
the Predator in the Alien Xenomorph.
Whoa, let's. Go.
The Xenomorph Queen in Aliens in1986 I.

(01:13:49):
Love The thing is so good. Yeah, this is crazy.
And you were just talking about Savini, This man Stan Winston.
He also helped create such legendary characters as Jason
Voorhees from Friday the 13th. Fantastic.
But he did it in Part 3. That's great.
That's where they say Jason become No, they say Jason
becomes a deadite after four. Really.

(01:14:13):
Yeah. So Jason's still a person in
three, but he finally gets the mask, also in three, because in
two he's still wearing the bag. Yeah.
And then one, he's not wearing nothing at all.
He's just a baby. Yeah.
Pillowcase. Yeah.
He also helped create Edward Scissorhands.
And would you know it, Mr. Roboto from the Band Sticks
music video. Domo.

(01:14:34):
Mr. Roboto, He helped create Pumpkin Head.
A love Pumpkinhead. Danny Devito's classic Penguin
from 1992's Batman Returns the best, Nice and many, many more
Yeah, A. Pumpkin head is underrated.
It is underrated. Do you think anyone's sexually
attracted to that Penguin version?
Oh yeah. Because I was watching the
Penguin version with Colin Farrell, and, as you know, I

(01:14:55):
think there's some charm to him.Yeah, but Danny Devito's version
is a little nastier. There's probably some submissive
sadists that want to get their nose bit off by him for sure.
Oh, probably. Or just want those guys's nose
to just dig into their, you know, Travis?
Well, you know that. You know that the Penguin would
eat good pussy because he loves all that fish.
Let's go. Let's.

(01:15:15):
Go world star. You're disturbing dog, Jerry.
I'm sorry dog Jerry, he has to hear my jokes all night long.
Mr. Winston's unequaled ability to blend practical effects,
animatronics and early CGI won him 4 Academy Awards.
These people are all very successful.
Yeah, yeah. Seriously.
And he solidified his legacy as a pioneer of visual effects.

(01:15:38):
In 1993, Winston founded Stan Winston Studio, which became a
leading hub for creature design and special effects innovation.
He mentored a new generation of effects artists and Co founded
Legacy Effects, which continues to work to this day.
In his later career, Stan Winston created designs for such
films as Interview with the Vampire, The Island of Doctor

(01:15:58):
Moreau, Even The Eternal Fought Bastard.
From Austin Powers From Austin. Powers to spy who shed?
Get in my tummy. There is a lot of people who are
mad about that. If the Internet was around, it
would have been interesting to see the reaction.
Yeah. They're like, it's fat phobic.
I'm like, it's fat bastard. He's just being funny.
Yeah. Mr. Winston died on June 15th,

(01:16:20):
2008 from cancer at the age of 60.
Two, I'm so cancer is there's something going on the.
Curse of the Cancer. I think it might be people who
work in animatronics and just work around all this artistic
stuff. Shit.
As of July 2025, we have also lost the following actors and
personalities who have appeared in the Jurassic Park and
Jurassic World franchises over the years.

(01:16:40):
Due to dinosaurs? Yes.
Were they eaten by Dinos? They were.
Metaphorically eaten by the dinosaurs of life.
No cancer? Yep.
The cancer hours. RIP to all of these people that
we're going to list here, Sarah Danielle Madison.
RIP. Irfan Khan.
Ripp, Jimmy. Buffett, the Jimmy Buffett.

(01:17:01):
The Jimmy Buffett, yeah. What the fuck was he in the
movie? I think he was in the newer
ones. Oh my God.
Yeah, they were playing like Margaritaville while people were
getting fucking eaten and. I stayed at Margaritaville for
three weeks. I became a regular.
I just stayed there. You became the Margarita I.
Became the Margarita. Yeah, I went from rehab to
Margaritaville for three weeks, that's how.

(01:17:23):
That's how you do that. That's how I did it anyway.
Ian Abercrombie, Julio Oscar Machoso, Gino Silva, Robin
Sachs, Peter Jason Bernard Shaw,Bruce French.
I know Bernard Shaw as well. All right, wow.
All right, PF. Everyone we've discussed.
They went to the Jurassic Park in the sky.

(01:17:45):
Yeah, Jurassic Universe. All right.
And that'll bring us 2. Final thoughts apparently can't
Don't get cancer. Yeah, if you can avoid it, you
can avoid. It it'd be pretty cool.
Also, good reminder, don't chasefame, chase the art, chase the
work. Because everyone that we talked

(01:18:06):
about, you might not know them by name, but all of them were
super successful. Yeah, and they just lived lives.
They had very. Successful careers?
Yes. I would imagine the people of
the Ben Affleck version of life would much prefer not to be
famous, right? So be careful what you wish for
and just do the work and have a great career and try not to get
cancer, yeah. Definitely try not to get

(01:18:26):
cancer. I don't know how you do that,
but just try not to. We need some DNA swabs on those
all those animatronics to see ifthey actually have asbestos in
them because it is crazy that all of these people involved
with this movie all pretty much died of cancer.
And young and young, that's the problem.
Right. Scary stuff, guys.
I. Hear you, I hear you.
Well for my final thought, I have this.
