Two weeks in a row starting a streak.

It's Major League man.
Yeah man, oh, I didn't get it,I didn't know it, of course you
didn't know it, you haven't seen.

Speaker 2 (00:45):
No movies, dude, yeah , dude, you don't watch anything
.
Oh, talking about movies, youknow how we give reviews to old
movies.

Speaker 5 (00:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
It's not really that old, but you said you liked it.
The Gladiator 2.
Have you seen it, Lionel?

Lano (01:02):
I saw it on the plane.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
I.
Gladiator 2.
Have you seen it, lalo?
Um, I saw it on the plane.
I fell asleep and then I kindof rewatched On the way back
there.
I didn't see the end of it.
I fell asleep.
I saw most of it, mm-hmm.
So I guess you didn't like it.
We could yeah, I could dowithout it.

Lano (01:15):
Oh, really Like.
Do you know what part you fellasleep?

Speaker 2 (01:17):
with it was, it was.

Lano (01:20):
The twins.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
Or one of them.
No, they killed.
No, I haven't gotten to thatpart, but thanks for the spoiler
.
They killed.
What's his name?
The one that was Lucius's mom?
Yeah, just killed him in the.

Lano (01:33):
Oh, pasquale, pedro, Pasquale right.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
Yeah, oh yeah.
My gripe is like From the verybeginning, this dude Hano, like
of course he's Lucius, whatever,right, yeah, but you already
know he was, you know, messingaround with the chickens and

(01:55):
they show his wife, it's likeokay, so there's the love story
there.
Of course she's going to dieand you know someone's going to
kill her or something Like thatwas fucking predictable.

Lano (02:06):
Oh yeah, like the first battle right.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
That's just predictable already.
Like oh, his love life, Ofcourse she's going to get killed
and, yep, she gets killed.

Lano (02:14):
Like on some boat or something they're attacking.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
Yeah, and you know what?
That dude's weak though man,that dude's weak though man,
that dude I don't know thatcharacter.

Lano (02:24):
He's a weak fool, or.
I don't know who he is.
He's a weak fool.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
Like I don't know that whole character Is like,
and then they, they try to makeit Too much, like Like Gladiator
, like, yeah, his.

Lano (02:36):
The fighting scenes Were Like Pretty whack, I guess, like
the throwing the dirt and allthat stuff.
Yeah, he picks up the dirt thesame like his dad.
You know that's the son right.

Mig (02:47):
The only one part that I thought was ridiculous Is, um,
when they fill up the stadiumwith water, I mean come on.
Yeah, I thought they Jumped ashark right there.
Man, like what kind of?

Speaker 2 (02:59):
stupid shit is that.
How are you importing sharks Inthe damn stadium?
Where are you getting all thatwater?

Mig (03:04):
damn stadium where we can get all that water from they
would have to be huge tanks.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
They have it just just in time for the third
fourth day of battle or whatever, and they build these ships.
That was so stupid.
That was so stupid that rightthere that that was, I don't
know so I thought it wasentertaining.

Lano (03:25):
No, it was a cash grab.
They didn't need to do a movietoo no, they nah.

Mig (03:29):
They could have left it alone, but even with denzel.

Lano (03:31):
You didn't like denzel's role or?

Mig (03:34):
you know what?
Not really, dude.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
I didn't like, no, I didn't like the part that denzel
played trying to make it seemlike the same, like the other
dude oh um a slave buyer.
Oh, you know, I know somethingspecial about you where there
was nothing special about him.
No, yeah, I mean, there wasnothing special about him that
first, that first whack-assbattle with the monkeys.
He bites the monkey's arm.
It's like why didn't what?

(03:59):
Like when he's biting themonkey's arm, why didn't the
monkey, you know, bite them, themonkeys?

Mig (04:04):
like it's stupid yeah, to me like Denzel he.

Speaker 2 (04:10):
Just that was stupid the the the hand to hand combat
that private little fight theyhad with the against the
emperors at the party, yeah,where they had a little
arrangement, where you know,denzel brought his fighter and
the other queer brought hisfighter.
Oh, yeah, yeah and they hadthat little private, little

(04:30):
boxing match.
Then the twin gets up all like,oh, amazing, amazing, whatever,
there's nothing amazing aboutthat crap, it was like dude.
And then two, the twins, twoemperors.
That's so bullshit.

Speaker 5 (04:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
Like one, the stronger, one's going to kill
the other one because that one'sgoing to want to be the ruler.

Mig (04:52):
Yeah, I thought they could have done without those twins.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
Dude, I don't know, I know why they're there to piss
you off as characters, but beingthat there's two of them, no
way there's going to be tworuling yeah, so that's not
accurate.

Lano (05:04):
There's two of them.
No way there's gonna be tworuling, yeah, so that's not
accurate.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
I mean, I don't know my roman history, but there was
no.
It's not to not to be accurate,but just with the how, how.
Back then medieval times, therewas so much, you know, greed
for power.

Rick (05:17):
It's like two twins are not gonna yeah, are not gonna
want to share power, yeah it'slike that's stupid man.

Lano (05:25):
I don't know all the fighting right, I gotta, I gotta
see the first one to compare.

Rick (05:29):
But I mean, I fell asleep on the plane too.
I mean, it doesn't sleep on theplane?

Speaker 6 (05:33):
also watching it there is a gladiator original,
the only part.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
Well, I still have seen the end of it.
But the only part I liked isthe beginning credits, when they
showed the cartoon highlightsof the first movie.
That's the only thing I likedis that the same?

Lano (05:49):
was it the same girl, the same actress, or a different?

Rick (05:52):
the mom yeah the mom was the same actress.

Lano (05:54):
Yeah, and and that happened in the first one, where
the boy like they sent them offor no, or that happened off
camera and they added that tothe second one no, they don't.
They don't even show anythinglike that they don't talk about
a boy or son or nothing.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
They don't go into it and then, and then they kind of
messed up because they show the, the boy, wherever I guess he
he was at, where he was hidingout at yeah it's like he looked
younger than Lucius was in thefirst movie.

Speaker 5 (06:22):
Yeah, Like the hell.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Yeah, it was stupid.
It was a stupid movie and Ihaven't finished Watching the
end of it, but I really doubtWhatever last little bit that I
have is Worth it, well worth itor gonna redeem the whole Thing
to it.

Lano (06:43):
It's, it's yeah, I could do without it well, um well, I
don't know where you're at today, but weather-wise, sunny
california, we had some hailthunderstorms today and for
about couple hours and that wasit.
Huh, yeah, a couple hours likean hour.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
It was like an hour an hour I got caught in me, I
had to go out and On the wayhere.
I got caught.
I got caught behind I don'tknow what you call it All the
cops for that Ballin Park policeofficer.

Lano (07:16):
Oh yeah, they had like a ceremony.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
Yeah, it was just like I don't know where they
were going.
I don't know where they weregoing, where exactly they were
going, but it started rightthere, right down the street.
And right when I left the houseand I was crossing the 7-Eleven
, Pacific and Puente, theystarted all the line of cars,
All the cop cars were coming inand the cops, the motorcycles,
blocking traffic and they jumpedon the freeway all the way up

(07:48):
until I guess they went down the10th, the 10th probably going
to city hall.

Mig (07:49):
That's crazy.
They still don't know why thatdude just started popping off
rounds.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
Huh yeah, it was some asian dude was that that's
asian.
Yeah, is that pretty close toyou or no, yeah it's, yeah, it's
not too far from like a coupleblocks or yeah.
That that happened right when Ileft to.
I left Camping To Lido Creekbut I was supposed to, we were

(08:13):
supposed to leave Friday, but Ihad to work Friday night and I
didn't.
I didn't leave, I didn't getStarted heading over to like

(08:37):
what- what kind of rifle thesehills and they are, these hills
a long rifle well, he killedsomebody, right he killed this
uh someone on this pedestrianand then the

Mig (08:44):
cop, because there was there was a family having some
kind of party there and the guythat got shot and killed he had
just parked his car and waswalking to that event.
Oh, that's why they're kind ofsaying that it was over a
parking space.

Lano (09:00):
Oh, was that the ring camera footage, the one where
they show, because they showwhat it was like, blurred out
Like he was like?
No, I don't know.

Mig (09:06):
I don't know, but you know, I mean, it wouldn't surprise me
, dude, because in Alhambra, youknow, my sister had some crazy
neighbors, that yeah.
He didn't even have a car oranything, but he didn't like
when you parked in front of hishouse.
Yeah some, some people get likethat.
And he would if you would parkin front of his house, he would
come out, get his holes andstart waiting your car Just

(09:31):
because you're parked in frontof his house.
Yeah, or turn on the sprinklersor turn on the sprinklers or
something you know.
So that wouldn't surprise me.
Dude, this guy Was Asian.

Speaker 2 (15:03):
Hey, how do you guys feel about the the penny being
discontinued?

Lano (15:15):
Or about to be discontinued.
I mean, I'm kind of I don'tcarry cash on me so it doesn't
bother me, but I mean, that'swhat I was going to say.

Mig (15:23):
It doesn't really matter.

Lano (15:25):
But my wife says, like in the Philippines they did that
and like, so they ran everythingup, like to whatever 95 or yeah
, you think so.
That's going to happen overhere, where they just round up.

Mig (15:37):
But with everything being Electronic.
Now.
I mean, that's what they'repushing towards, they want
everything to be, but you sawwhy.

Lano (15:44):
You saw why I think it costs more to yeah To make it.
I think it.
Oh, that's right.
I think it costs like.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
Three or four cents To make one penny.
Yeah, so the homie Trump's likeNah Not.

Lano (15:57):
Pointless.

Speaker 2 (15:59):
And the nickel could be in danger If that thing keeps
going up too.
The dime is fine, yeah, cause Ithink it takes like six cents
to make a dime.
So that's still fine, but Idon't know, I don't know how I
feel about that why are yougonna?
Like start hoarding them,carrying them or I mean have a
little bit, but it's gonna be.

(16:20):
I know that they're like Adirty coin, like I don't know
why they're like, they just seemdirty.

Lano (16:27):
Well, they're not like Solid copper right, they're
depleted.

Mig (16:29):
Nah, they haven't been Solid copper in a long time.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
But yeah, I mean I don't know Like, since I kid you
know you're, I'm indifferentyou have.
You mean Saving pennies.

Lano (16:42):
I don't think my girls Are gonna have you mean saving
pennies.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
I don't think my girls are going to know about
cash when they grow up Savingpennies, it's like it's just
bullshit, man.

Lano (16:50):
I talk to people with kids that work Now they're going to
get rid of the pennies.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
Then they try telling me that Pluto wasn't a planet.
And then it's like I find out,saturn's rings aren't really
colorful, they're just stem.

Lano (17:06):
They're not.
They're not, bro.
Yeah, it's like white rocks orwhatever, it's just.

Mig (17:11):
It's rocks orbiting in gases, man they're not colorful,
it's like.

Lano (17:16):
Have you seen Saturn like in a telescope?

Speaker 2 (17:18):
Yeah, or just like in movies and books Manny's
telescope that's how I saw it.
Oh, I haven't seen it I saw iton Manny's telescope.
I'm like hey dude.

Mig (17:26):
Those rings aren't fucking colorful.
No well, any color you see Is adeflection of light From,
depending on when You're seeingit, from the angle.

Lano (17:36):
Cause I saw Like there was a video Like one of the News
helicopters.
Like you know, they have theirCameras and then they pointed it
at saturn and they're able topick up the rings, like with the
zoom.
So I was like, oh that's pretty, it's crazy.

Speaker 2 (17:47):
Huh, oh shit is I saw .
I saw this one thing on youtube, this, um, like it's crazy,
this this you ever catch?
You ever see these little shortvideos of mathematic hacks?

Lano (18:00):
yeah, like the asian styles where they start like
crosses.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
And yeah, they were showing like a number, um so
like 99 times 5 or like 44 times3, you like times the first and
the third number and then youput like their leftover number
in the middle and that's the.

Speaker 5 (18:23):
That's the answer huh , no, yeah, no, I'll see a lot
of that.
They do like some, but liketheir leftover number in the
middle.

Lano (18:27):
And that's the answer.
Huh, no, yeah, no, I'll see alot of that.
They do like some tickets.
It's crazy.

Speaker 2 (18:30):
Like how the hell?
And I was like no way, and Iwas trying it with other numbers
, and I think it's only when thenumbers what do they call that
Like 33, 44, 55?
Prime, those are prime numbers.

Mig (18:39):
Prime when they're only divisible by themselves or by
one.

Rick (18:43):
Yeah, so it doesn't work out.

Speaker 2 (18:45):
Oh yeah, that's right , um, yeah, so 33, you could
divide that by 3 32 yeah.
Oh 44, not a prime number.

Mig (18:58):
Prime numbers would be like 1, 5, 7, 19, 19, 1, 5, 7, 19,
but yeah, but I think 19, 19,157, 19 but yeah, but I think,
is that what they call the newmath?

Lano (19:11):
because I heard there's like a new math, like it's not
the way I don't know, but it'scrazy how everything was working
.

Speaker 2 (19:15):
I was like how the hell does that happen, like.
But like some videos are likegoing crazy, like this number
with this number like man.
But then, like some videos arelike going crazy, like this
number with this number Like man, it's just better to do the
whole damn math problem Likefigure it out.

Lano (19:28):
But I'll see where they had like they'll have one girl
doing the way we taught.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
Add the first two numbers carry their next number.

Lano (19:32):
And then the second girl doing the way the new way and
it's like faster.

Rick (19:38):
Yeah, what about?

Lano (19:38):
those ones where it's a circle and they have a dots and
you have to like draw a line andthen they can't cross over the
line, or something like that.
You have to like touch theother dot.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
Oh so it's that's like a puzzle, right, yeah, you
ever do that one.

Lano (19:49):
You ever figure it out.
No, I never click on it.

Speaker 2 (19:52):
But no, I feel like those puzzles.
There's some people that makepuzzles that are just you can't
figure out, but they just wantto break your brain.
Because I saw this one thingthat was like made out of wood
and it's like, uh, it had slidethem, it looked, it was like an

(20:13):
e, it was like e, right, but ithad four, four lines and it was
all like that right, and theyhad a wood.
They had a hole through threeof them and a bolt through it.
So three slots, three pieces ofwood that were drilled and they
had a bolt in it.

(20:34):
And then the other part was ontop where you couldn't just
slide it out.

Rick (20:39):
Yeah, how do you get it out?
I think, that's bullshit.

Speaker 2 (20:42):
There's no way of getting that out.
They're trying to say it's likea solid piece of wood where you
can kind of see the way theymade it.

Speaker 5 (20:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:49):
It's like it's.

Mig (20:52):
there's a piece that yeah, because then they say well,
how'd they get it in?
Yeah, how'd they get it in yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
So I say, like stuff like that, I go it's bullshit.

Mig (21:05):
They just do puzzles, puzzles like that to break
people's brains like yeah,there's gotta be a way, like
someone that gets all obsessedwith yeah and there's no solving
it.
There's no, it's like it.
Uh, it's like that scene in uhmall rats.
You remember that movie mallrats?
Yeah, kimmy smith yeah that onefool is looking at that picture
.
There's supposed to be asailboat like hidden.
It's like it's a picture likeall kinds of random shapes and
everything.

Lano (21:24):
Those magic eye ones, yeah , and then they become 3D.

Mig (21:26):
And then the dude's like staring at it, staring at the
whole movie, and everybody thatwalks by is like, oh, a sailboat
.
And he's like where is it?

Rick (21:34):
Yeah, I remember he's like he's going crazy because he
can't see it, you remember whenthose were big in the mall In
the 80s?

Lano (21:43):
Were you able to see one of those?
Nah, you have to get your eyeskind of blurry or cross eyed and
then it pops out like 3D, likea mannequin or something like a
block.
That was a puzzle.
Yeah, it was like computergenerated but it was called
Magic Eye.
They would have them at themall and stuff that one right

(22:06):
there look at it Right in themiddle, this one Right in the
middle or January, but it wascalled Magic Eye.

Speaker 2 (22:10):
They would have them at the mall and stuff that one
right there.
Look at it Right in the middle.

Lano (22:13):
This one, right in the middle, a wood screw puzzle.
Oh, oh, that one's it rightthere.
Let's see this one.
They have a video.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
Yeah, they're full of shit.
You can't get that boat out.
There's no way of getting thatboat out without breaking that
shit.
But you see, you can tell thatthose are different.
Those are different pieces ofwood.

Lano (22:27):
That are glued on the top.

Speaker 2 (22:30):
The top one is glued, the top one has the joint so
that guy's saying like I have noidea of how to get it out.
Then he said he tried shakingit, see if it'll no, that's not
gonna work.

Rick (22:43):
I don't know there's no way of getting that thing out
nah well, that's what he said.

Speaker 2 (22:50):
He tried to see.

Lano (22:51):
The force went out so it's , it's uh for the audio listener
.
It's like a, an e, like adouble e, with the screw in the
middle.
Yeah, and it's out in the wings, but yeah you can only tell
right there all the greens aredifferent man, that's not even a
good one, huh like a good copythey should have done a better

(23:12):
job matching up the greens andto make it uh yeah we're in the
believable, but I

Speaker 2 (23:18):
don't know, and then I tried looking for a video that
shows someone trying to take itoff.
Yeah, you know what?
I wonder if it's.
I don't see a lot of videoswhere they show how magic tricks
are, like the good magic tricks.

Lano (23:34):
Yeah, I wonder if, like, youtube is forbidden On showing
the no, I was watching One oflike special effects, like the
old Charlie.

Speaker 2 (23:42):
Chaplin movie, like the old Charlie Chaplin tricks
or whatever.

Lano (23:44):
And it's very.

Speaker 2 (23:46):
Like they didn't.
There wasn't a video Solvingthat one.

Mig (23:48):
Well, it's probably the dudes themselves.
They're not going to show howto do them.

Speaker 2 (23:53):
Magicians are so secretive, tight-nipped yeah.

Speaker 5 (23:58):
Yeah.

Mig (23:58):
Well, because then that's the thing too.
It's like some might callthemselves magicians, some might
call themselves illusionists.
You know, they don't want togive away their secrets.

Speaker 2 (24:09):
That makes sense.
You know, Flip a coin and makeit disappear, or flip a coin and
make something.

Lano (24:17):
Yeah, I think I was watching.

Speaker 2 (24:20):
You guys ever, you guys ever see A coin With like
red paint on it?
You guys ever see that?

Mig (24:30):
Red paint.

Speaker 2 (24:30):
A coin.

Lano (24:31):
Yeah, never seen the red paint like nail polish or what
yeah, just like, try to likescratch the paint or whatever
what does it mean?
Or?

Speaker 2 (24:40):
maybe any paint was supposed to say they said.
They said that that was, uh,considered as a house coin that,
um, like bar owners that hadjukeboxes oh.
When no one was putting moneyIn the jukebox.
There are coins when they wouldpaint A coin, yeah, and they
would put they would Play music.
So then whenever they came,whoever came to collect.

Mig (25:04):
The money Back to the bar.

Speaker 2 (25:05):
Yeah, whatever painted they gave back to the
bar.
That was the house coin Makessense, so you ever get one.
That's probably from Probablyold so yeah.
Pretty stupid fact.

Lano (25:21):
I was watching this video.
They were showing like CharlieChaplin there's some Like he's
skating right, that one, yeah.
And then Let me see if I canmake it bigger.
Hey, you see, that did you andso this is supposed to be like
the second floor.
But yeah, you know how they didit at the restaurant so that.

(25:41):
So this was like floor, but it'spainted.
The second level was paintedright here to make it look like
um, like there was a floor belowand then the camera's filming
it like um, like there was afloor below and then the
camera's filming it.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
Oh, so to me like that's kind of cool, hey have
you been at that restaurantthat's on his old house?

Lano (26:02):
no, I, I mean, I've seen his old studio over there, like
in los feliz area.
Is that what you're talkingabout?
No, and then uh downtown la no,his house, no no, downtown LA
no His house.

Speaker 2 (26:15):
No, uh-oh, oh, that's crazy.

Lano (26:17):
So then the camera's right there in the bottom shooting.

Speaker 2 (26:19):
I see what you're talking about.
Wow, that's wild.

Mig (26:24):
But that's like true special effects.
Yeah, that's camera tricks.

Lano (26:25):
Yeah, camera tricks, I mean that's so.
Then when he's doing the movie,you think he's going to fall
off and he's like skating around.
Oh, that's good, but even likePretty good, like to come up
with that like that's pretty,like cool.

Mig (26:40):
Better than all the CGI crap they're doing today.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
Yeah, that's more legit right there.

Mig (26:45):
Give him more props for that.

Speaker 2 (26:46):
Yeah, yeah, that was pretty cool.

Lano (26:50):
And then this is a famous one where the guy's on like
hanging from some clock, butthen he's on a different um, so
he's hanging.
This is like, I guess, a famousmovie.
Are you showing that?
You're gonna be able to showthat?
Yeah, I think he's recording so.
So he's up on a building, likewith a mattress, the camera's up

(27:13):
on that, that deck, but thenthe way the angle they put it,
it looks like he's above, likethe downtown.
I feel like this is the stuffthey gotta go back to tricky.
Tricky I mean low budget films,yeah, and then they show.
But see, it was low budget soit made them think outside the
box.

Mig (27:30):
All they need to go back to is the car chase scenes.
Go back to real car chasescenes.
Real stunts, right, yeah, realcar wrecks.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
That's what they need to go back to.
Yeah, you know what?
I wonder what's happened withuh stunt drivers if they've been
out of work for I think so foryears?
Huh, it's really really what?

Mig (27:53):
what stunts are there?

Lano (27:54):
everything's all cgi now yeah, everything's drawn or
painted.

Mig (27:57):
It's like artists unless you're like in a tarantino film
or robert rodriguez or some shit.
You know they're the only onesthat are staying true yeah you
know um we got some phone calls.

Lano (28:12):
Should we get to them?

Speaker 2 (28:13):
Yeah, fuck yeah.

Lano (28:14):
Let's do it, let me see, but first what's that number?

Mig (28:18):

There you go, I had to get.
Well, then I want to give youprops.

Lano (28:46):
On the last show you did a good job, like when I was
watching On YouTube, looking atthe camera and stuff.

Speaker 2 (28:50):
I don't know, not looking up or what, no, just
look, I don't know.

Lano (28:52):
Not looking up or what?
No, just look.
I don't know if you're doing itintentional, but like when I
was watching on YouTube, itlooked like Like you're looking
at us In the audience.

Rick (28:58):
I gotta do.

Lano (28:59):
I gotta do more of that Looking at the camera.

Speaker 2 (29:00):
Yeah, you know what, watching that one, like I told
you guys I had to like jump onyou guys were talking about the
music Jumping on some old, oldstuff.

Mig (29:11):
That's why I was like you know what Mission accomplished
then?

Rick (29:13):
Yeah.

Mig (29:14):
If we got at least One person to do One thing that we
were Talking about.
At least that.

Speaker 2 (29:20):
That was pretty good.
You know that that inspired me,bueno.

Speaker 6 (29:26):
I'm over here Listening to the first Drifted
on a Royal In a couple of weeksand already A bunch of BS is
spilling out of Migs mouth.
I'll tell you all the listenersright now.
Let me tell you guys, Meg worksat auto zone lawnmowers on the
weekends and he's reading allthis stuff and chat GPT.
He don't even know what he'stalking about, so let me just

(29:49):
put you guys on on blast.
All right, Meg don't know whathe's talking about.
He's a mechanic or something.
He's not.
Guy never turned a wrench inhis life.
I want you guys to know.
All right, later, Just got tokeep it real, dang Mark.

Mig (30:04):
Called you out Just because you pretend to be some kind of
supervisor, manager, job sitebig shot dude, when really all
you do is, uh, clean out theporta potties don't hate on me,
dude, you can't win.
Yeah, you can't.
You know, don't.
Don't.
Don't hate, dude, because I gotmy own business and I've been

(30:25):
running it for over 30 years,you know, so just don't hate it
is um?

Lano (30:32):
is that mark's business?
He's the boss or he has a boss?

Speaker 2 (30:34):
No, he works for Construction company.

Mig (30:38):
He doesn't have the web or the brains To run his own shit.
That's right, I said it.
Now go use your cheater grill,go smoke Something.

Speaker 2 (30:50):
Nah he has a special love for that Weber grill, even
though he has.
He has a special love for thatWeber girl, even though he has
that Traeger girl.
He, he really loves that Weber.

Lano (30:59):
The old school ones, like the black, the black bubble.
He loves those things.
Have you guys ever used thosegreen eggs?
I hear people talking aboutthem, but I don't know what the
big deal is.
I thought you were supposed Tobuy one.

Speaker 2 (31:10):
I was thinking about it, but I didn't pull the
trigger Because you wanted tobake some stuff.
Yeah, but he needs a robot egg.

Lano (31:18):
All right, the next call.

Speaker 6 (31:21):
Meg, why are you wasting your time?
This dude drives a Tesla, bro.
He drives an electric car,drives an electric scooter and
an electric bike, bro.
Why do you waste your time?
The guy don't care, man, You'retalking way over his head, bro.

Lano (31:40):
No, it was interesting I was listening to me.
I don't drive diesel, but yeah.

Mig (31:44):
But Mark understand I'm not talking to him.
I'm talking to everybody outthere in Driftland.

Speaker 2 (31:50):
Don't disagree.
Every time he worked on his bughe had his official VW
licensing mechanic, coveralls.

Mig (32:01):
When he was doing his old change and everything he was on
the down low gearhead back inthe day.

Speaker 2 (32:08):
Yeah.
He had a certified Volkswagenmechanic coverall suit.

Mig (32:15):
That's true Before he was blowing up engines on the thug
bug.

Speaker 2 (32:19):
He would even put it on when he was just going to put
air in the tires.

Mig (32:23):
It's just like, or improperly installed, stereo
systems.
Yeah, yeah, he didn't.
He turned the screwdriver too.

Speaker 2 (32:33):
Yeah, yeah you were kind of all over the place, yeah
hey.

Speaker 6 (32:39):
So, since we're talking about people dropping
out after they say they're gonnado so many albums or whatever,
okay, specifically, we'retalking about too short and how
he should have stopped at 10.
Okay, now, what do you guysthink about directors?
And I'm calling out QuentinTarantino, because he said he
was going to do, I think, eightmovies and that was it.

(33:00):
He's done.
So if you search, on YouTubeyou'll see questions come up.
They ask him hey, are you done?
Are you done?
So I don't know.
Do you think he should also bowafter he says eight?

Lano (33:14):
What are you guys' thoughts on that?
If he says eight, I think yougotta stop at eight.

Mig (33:18):
Did he do eight already?
I don't know which one would benumber eight.

Lano (33:23):
I thought he did.
I remember they were talkingabout it when this came out.

Mig (33:28):
Did he do that before or after?
Inglourious Bastards, that wasafter After.
Yeah, I want the last one.

Speaker 2 (33:31):
Did he do that before after inglorious bastards.

Mig (33:32):
That was after after yeah, I want to say after because, I
want to say that once that onceupon a time in hollywood dude I.
I didn't really dig that oneall that much you know what I'm
gonna say.

Lano (33:46):
I'm gonna say yes what he's directed.

Mig (33:51):
Nine movies okay, so Once Upon a Time in Hollywood was his
ninth, so it says so numbereight was probably.

Lano (33:58):
The Hateful Eight, and then he says he's gonna do a
total of ten.
Oh man.

Speaker 2 (34:04):
The Hateful Eight was his eighth movie.

Lano (34:07):
Yeah, I mean, let me see.

Mig (34:09):
I think if he would've Cause actually If he would've
stopped that in GloriousBastards it would have been
perfect, because the way thatmovie ended Made it seem like
that was his mic drop, if youremember the ending.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
So my input on directors I say yes because I
think Directors yes, you shouldstop at 10.
It's hard to keep with thetimes because they have their
mindset on how they like to makemovies yeah because, like
tarantino style, a movie I don'tthink would hit today with the

(34:44):
newer generations theirattention span is way too small.
Yeah, I mean they want justlike two minute songs.
Yeah, so it's just.

Mig (34:53):
That's why even like there's no way they could follow
his dialogue and and understand, you know, character
development, and yeah, it's,it's.

Speaker 2 (35:04):
I don't know it's so.
Who knows what the hell thisgeneration likes.

Lano (35:08):
Well, according to Um IB, um DB, uh, it says.
Well.
According to IBDB, it saysTorrentino has announced that
his 10th and final film will betitled the Movie Critic.
Oh, so that one hasn't beenreleased yet, right, it's coming
out, no, so he is keeping well,so far, keeping to his promise

(35:29):
that that will be his 10th andfinal film.

Speaker 2 (35:31):
Okay, so Mark was in, is was.

Lano (35:37):
Yeah, so.

Speaker 2 (35:39):
Yeah, but I'm telling you of all of his movies.

Mig (35:41):
I'm telling you of all of his movies.
My least favorite has to bethat Once Upon a Time in
Hollywood.

Lano (35:46):
That one I just, I don't know I mean, well, wait a minute
, because I'm counting 10 movieshere.

Speaker 2 (35:50):
I don't think he said 8.

Lano (35:53):
I, I mean, I'm counting 10 movies here.
I'm counting 10 here.
Are they saying Kill Bill islike one movie Because it's
volume 1 and 2?

Speaker 2 (36:00):
Yeah, it's gotta be one.

Lano (36:02):
So there's a loophole.
I guess 10 stories.
So Hateful Eight would benumber 8, and then this would be
number 9.

Mig (36:12):
Yeah, you see, all of those are great dude, all up until
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

Lano (36:20):
And then Reservoir Dogs.
I like it.
It's Highland Park, right, theyfilmed the whole movie in
Highland Park and Pulp Fiction.
Pulp Fiction was a little bitin.

Rick (36:29):
Oh, dude Inglourious.

Lano (36:30):
Basterds is old dude, 2009 .
I know fiction was a little bitin.

Speaker 2 (36:36):
oh dude inglorious bastard is old dude.
2009, I know.
Wow, 2000, jango and tain,hateful eight way back then then
one more dude.
It's gonna come up already on20 years well, look at so.

Lano (36:47):
He's been doing it since, well, 92.
So if there's no one, it'll belike 30 years of making movies,
which is a career, that's one.
It'll be like 30 years ofmaking movies, which is a career
.
That's when I graduated highschool, 30 years of making um
yeah.

Speaker 2 (36:58):
But I say directors, yeah, they probably should,
because just because of timesthey, their style of movie, will
only hit for what their currentum era is feeling, you know
yeah that's.
That's if even they're the wayyou, because directors have
their style of making a movieand their style might not even

(37:20):
line up with the era of time.
Yeah, so then they never evensee the light of day.
But that's true.

Mig (37:27):
You know the right time, right place for like I mean
especially, especially with himbecause style of making, movie
making yeah, but especially withhim because not only his um
love of dialogue and characterdevelopment and everything yeah
but his use of language.
I mean, it's no secret that heloves using the n-word, you know

(37:50):
oh, yeah, yeah I have noproblem Saying the n-word, but I
mean, people out there Mighthave a problem Hearing it, so
I'm not gonna say it For thesake of Whoever has Delicate
ears out there, you know.
But for me, you know, the wordshave Whatever power you put
behind them.
And I could say Whatever Willynilly, you know, because to me I

(38:10):
put no power behind it, butwhatever.
But, um, yeah, I, I don't knowif he's gonna make one more
called the film critic.
You know, I don't know whatit's gonna be about.
Right, let me like a differentway.

Speaker 2 (38:24):
But the question was do you think directors should
stop before they're they jumpthe shark I mean, I think it all
depends.

Mig (38:33):
Yeah, I mean, he specifically said Tarantino.

Speaker 2 (38:37):
So that was an example.
That was an example.
So you're saying yes becauseyou say you don't like Once Upon
a Time in Mexico, so that couldprobably already be no.

Mig (38:49):
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

Speaker 2 (38:50):
I know, once Upon a Time in Mexico, once Upon a Time
in Hollywood, you see.
Cause upon a time in Mexico,once upon a time in Hollywood,
you see cause okay.

Mig (38:55):
So then say you get someone like James Cameron.

Speaker 5 (38:58):
Yeah.

Mig (38:59):
Made Terminator, made Titanic, made those pieces of
crap, avatar, avatar.
You know he could keep makingcrap like that.
So he could keep on making thatgarbage all he wants.
It's gonna be summerblockbusters, and he could just
keep on going.

Lano (39:14):
But he didn't say I'm only going to make, like whatever,
this number of movies or blah,blah, blah.

Mig (39:18):
Mark didn't say anything about that I don't think so.
We're just talking about acutoff of what?

Speaker 2 (39:23):
directors?
I don't think so.
I think Avatar was, I think,right time, right time of.

Lano (39:33):
I think one more is coming out, or two more are coming out
still, I think.

Speaker 2 (39:37):
I doubt it'll be that popular for the newer
generation.
I don't know because, um,because it's like, uh say, a
director likes his style ofmaybe zombie like movies, like
that's already like played out,like it's already over.

Mig (40:00):
So just that idea, that kind of but I mean Like someone
like James Cameron, he has rangeCause he's done like a spectrum
Of different.

Lano (40:13):
Yeah.

Mig (40:13):
You know, he's done like the action blockbusters and he's
done like the romantic ones,the Titanic, yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:19):
You know so he kinda has range, but if, but, if that
passion's Already out and he'sjust gonna make it Just because
he's James Cameron, he shouldjust quit but he's like at the
point where he's made all themoney he's made.

Lano (40:31):
So he just makes like whatever he's got his own damn
submersible.

Speaker 2 (40:34):
He's going down well, titanic, I mean that that's in
his own deep, deep sea that.

Mig (40:40):
That's what I'm saying.
You know, is that we're talkingabout?
Should they have a finitenumber of movies they should
make or not?
You know, it's like okay.

Speaker 2 (40:49):
So like george lucas, what else would he be able to
make besides the star warsmovies like there's nothing?
Well, he did so he's alreadybowed out he doesn't make
anything so like george lucas,is a good is a good example of
like okay, if you're.

Mig (41:03):
If you're a one-trick pony, then yeah I'm done.

Speaker 2 (41:05):
You know that's it but that's what.

Mig (41:07):
That's what I'm saying if you're not spielberg, if you're
not a one trick pony how aboutspielberg?
I think spielberg could finddifferent, different ways,
because spielberg's another onethat has a lot of range.
Don't forget he did aschindler's list yeah, he's so
he's been able to do dramatic.
You know he, so he has rangealso.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
I would say, there's probably the exception, there's
exceptions, but majority, yeah,majority.

Mig (41:34):
I think a lot, a lot of these directors are like
one-trick ponies adam sandersadam sanders is a director,
producer, producer, I think he'smore producer.

Lano (41:46):
Yeah, he has like a production company, production
company.
You guys know how Gilmore'scoming out Like next month,
right?

Speaker 2 (41:51):
Yeah, I think that's gonna be Good.
I'm hoping it's good.

Mig (41:56):
I told Lano about it, but did you see that Naked Gun
trailer?

Speaker 2 (42:00):
Oh yeah, I heard you guys Talking about it.

Lano (42:01):
Did you watch it?

Speaker 2 (42:03):
That's a big negative , big negative.

Mig (42:06):
Did you see the trailer?

Speaker 2 (42:08):
Yeah.

Mig (42:08):
I've seen it.
I've seen it before, before youeven talked about it.

Speaker 2 (42:10):
You know who told me about it, shane, okay, and Cause
, cause I don't know who wastalking to him About those Slaps
, slaps, yeah, comedies, and,and we were.
We saw the first Nike gun andthe second one, cause he wanted
to see those, because he wantedto see Airplane and yeah, I

(42:31):
showed him Hot shots.
And all those right.
And then I told him Nah, oncehe told me About that shit, I
was like and then, and then Liamis like he's not.
He's not like that kind ofFucking actor Like.

Lano (42:45):
No.

Speaker 2 (42:46):
I don't, I can't see him like that.
I was like no, I don't, I can'tsee him like that.

Mig (42:49):
I was like no, that's, that's to me one movie that
should not have been what I'm,what I'm telling lano to me was
like the.
The biggest turnoff in thattrailer is the little girl
coming and then he takes off themask and it's still the body of
the little girl and his bigfreaking head, you know, and

(43:09):
it's like it's him and then allof a sudden he turns into the
big man.
I'm like dude.
It's like if the movie isanything like that, where he's
doing shit like that, and I Imean I'm surprised that he even
it's gonna be agreed to do thatI could.
I could see where he might havesome comedic chops and not.

Speaker 2 (43:29):
Not for that style of comedy, not for that style.

Mig (43:31):
I could see it.
I could see it.
It would be surprising.

Speaker 2 (43:35):
I could see it, though no not, even not for that
type of comedy.

Mig (43:41):
You can't, you can't, not, not, you can't not exactly spin
off of that, no, not exactlylike like leslie nielsen, but I
could see him Doing somethingLike funny, like comedic, you
know, it was like in his seriousway, but with funny shit
happening around them.

Speaker 5 (43:59):
Yeah.

Mig (44:00):
But him still like kind of like being serious but like all
kinds of funny crap happeningaround them.

Speaker 2 (44:06):
I could see that People watch Snake and Gun, and
you see if that movie shouldhave been touched with a spinoff
watch one, two or three they'reall funny, they're all funny,
so doesn't matter.

Lano (44:22):
Oh, okay, but I wonder if they're gonna tone down the joke
.
Hey, because they got away witha lot of jokes I don't know if
they can get away with now.
Yeah, okay, hot shots.

Speaker 2 (44:29):
Hot shots In your opinion?

Rick (44:31):
Awesome.

Lano (44:32):
Which one?
Yeah, yeah, but Charlie Sheencan pull it off.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, charlie Sheen, he can
really pull it off, yeah.
Okay, in your opinion.

Mig (44:40):
Don't ask me which one I like more.

Speaker 2 (44:41):
Which one's better?
Oh dude.

Lano (44:43):
Which one's better.
Don't ask me that that part oneor part two or what.
Yeah, it's kind of a blur.
I have to re-watch them becauseI don't know which one's which.
I don't have to re-watch them.
Do you watch?

Mig (44:53):
them for for me for me that's like asking who's your
favorite kid for me, for me.

Speaker 2 (45:00):
I'm gonna tell the kid part two, part, does I?
Mean I believe part two dude,because because after, after
re-watching the hot shots, he'srambling After that first one,
you start thinking like, oh,when is this going to happen?

Mig (45:18):
It's like oh no, that's in part duh.
And then, after all thefighting and everything, he
finds that stupid mole on thefloor yeah, dude, and he puts it
in his little purse, yeah, it'sjust part duh.

Speaker 2 (45:27):
Oh man, Mr Bean is in it.

Mig (45:31):
It's yeah, he runs out of arrows and uses a chicken.
That's the one.

Speaker 2 (45:36):

outdid the.

Lano (45:43):
I don't know.
My wife's seen it, maybe thefirst one.
Maybe the kids will like it.

Speaker 2 (45:47):
Yeah, it's just more funny.
They really hit their damntheir zone in part the you know,
it's like the whole damnfighting.

Before he came, he came with ascumbag.

Mig (48:31):
You know right, right now that we're on, we're on
Hollywood.

Lano (48:34):
That's what I was gonna try to do.

Mig (48:36):
No, but not what you're thinking, lano.

Lano (48:37):
Okay.

Mig (48:38):
I've been A lot of thought in this, like the past couple
weeks, only because I've beenwatching a lot, like you know.
They've been watching a lot,like you know, they've been
passing a lot, um, they've beenpassing the Godfather a lot.
You know Bronx tale and Istarted thinking, you know it's
like cause they're alwaystalking about, um, like these

(49:01):
best actors, what to you, what,what, like?
What criteria for you does anactor have to possess to be like
a great actor?

Speaker 2 (49:19):
What do they have to possess?

Mig (49:21):
Well, I mean because the thing is it's like in different
movies, because to me it's likeLike range, or what are you
talking about?
Like range exactly it's like,and Like range, or what are you
talking about?
Like range exactly.
Cause to me and it has nothingto do with his views or nothing
or anything I've always thoughtthis and, believe me, I love his
older stuff.

Lano (49:39):
Tom Hanks.

Mig (49:40):
Like De Niro, he's the same Freaking person, character,
everything.

Lano (49:45):
Every movie Marky Mark's the same Fucking character Tom
Hanks is a great actor LikeEverything.

Mig (49:50):
Every movie Marky Mark's the same fucking character.
Tom Hanks is a great actor.
Exactly, he's got you knowbecause he could change Because
his characters.

Speaker 2 (49:56):
His comedy, his comedy back in the day.

Mig (49:58):
You know, but he could even immerse himself and make
himself like a differentnationality.

Speaker 5 (50:04):
Yeah.

Mig (50:04):
You know, do a different accent and everything For me
Like the ultimate, ultimate, Ithink, brad Pitt.

Speaker 2 (50:16):
That was good.

Mig (50:17):
That dude has changed himself so much since even the
beginning of his career.

Lano (50:24):
I feel like he always says try to play cool guy.

Rick (50:26):
No, dude no no, no no, If you think about it go all the
way back to true romance.
Yeah, when he was just afreaking stoner junkie, when he
was just a stoner on the on thesofa yeah I thought it was his
first thomas louise or no, or isthat's after?

Speaker 2 (50:44):
thomas.
It was like a running thosebefore it was he was really
young.
It was like a running.

Mig (50:48):
And then, like he does one, like he does his serious stuff,
and a river runs through it.

Speaker 5 (50:54):
Yeah.

Mig (50:55):
You know.
But then he comes through anddoes something so offbeat and so
way out there, like Snatch,snatch.
You know, then he'll come backand he'll do something like
Fight Club.
True, like the witty, you know,and then He'll come back and

(51:17):
you know he'll, he'll do thewittiness of In Ocean's Eleven.
Ocean's Eleven.
Uh huh, you know, so he does.
He gets that character down.

Lano (51:27):
Well, tamal Luis, he did like a lot of movies.
Wow, yeah, you know I mean, andthen you know, so he gets that
character down.
Well, tama and Louise, he didlike a lot of movies before that
one.
You know what I mean.

Mig (51:31):
And then you know like.
I was saying InglouriousBastards, right there again.
Another one.
Legends of the Fall.
Another great character.
Well, legends of the Fall.
Not River Runs Through it.
Legends of the Fall.
That's what I meant.
Well, there's.
River Runs Through it also.

Lano (51:45):
yeah, oh yeah.

Speaker 2 (51:46):
He was one of the brothers I think True romance.

Mig (51:51):
So for me, him, I think he's like one of the greatest
actors out there.
You know what I mean.
And because, like De Niro, dude, it's like they want to say
that he's like this greatperformer and everything it's
always the same.
Yeah, it's like for me, hepeaked At Godfather, you know,

(52:15):
that's where I think His bestperformance came in.
Oh, his best.
Yeah, because if you, but hepeaked.

Speaker 2 (52:22):
Well, I mean, I mean he was good and analyzed that
and Well, that one, yeah.

Lano (52:28):
And then, well, bronx Tale too.
Bronx Tale, meet the Fuckers orno, he was good and analyze
that.
And well, that one, yeah.

Speaker 2 (52:30):
And then the bronctail too yeah, I mean, well
, meet the fuckers he was, hewas the same, but kind of funny
yeah wag the dog.

Lano (52:38):
He was good in um you ever saw that taxi driver?

Mig (52:41):
and then the boxing one bulldog yes, that that, but
that's what I'm talking about.
And those they say that he waslike I never seen the greatest
performances ever and I I seenthose movies, dude, and they're
like, they're like.

Speaker 2 (52:53):
Casino.
I mean, that's pretty much Hischaracter.

Mig (52:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (52:56):
That's his mobster character.

Mig (52:57):
You know it's like okay, and even that Joe Pesci, joe
Pesci can transform himself,dude.

Speaker 2 (53:03):
Yeah, to like.

Mig (53:04):
Home Alone.
Be different Home Alone.
You know, Home Alone Bedifferent.
Home Alone, you know.

Lano (53:09):
Home Alone Lethal.

Mig (53:09):
Weapon?
Yeah, you know, and just like.
He has range dude, he's notjust Like a, like a.

Speaker 2 (53:16):
He could be a lawyer.

Mig (53:18):
Yeah, my cousin Vinny.
Yeah, you know, and he's notjust the same guy Over and over.

Speaker 2 (53:25):
You know, I mean well , I mean the obvious.
I mean I mean I mean theobvious, I mean you mentioned
them earlier.
Denzel Washington, yeah, hecould be in a funny movie.
He could look at Training Day,look at man on Fire, look at the
book of Eli.
It's like that's Crazy range,ricochet.

(53:48):
But even in those he's stillEli is like that's crazy range.

Mig (53:49):
Ricochet is like but I mean , but even in those he's still,
he's still kind of like the.
It's like you see him in thosebut you still think like he's
the same person, like he's stillgoing to kick ass at the end or
something Like Deja Vu, I mean.
I'm saying like you, don'tthink.
He's like a different person.
You know, you know what.

Speaker 2 (54:09):
I mean.
Well along with Brian Pitt,Leonardo DiCaprio.

Mig (54:16):
You see, at first I didn't like him, but yeah.

Speaker 2 (54:19):
Leonardo's got a crazy range.

Mig (54:21):
Yeah, you know, because even from Wolf of Wall Street to
Departed to Titanic toAviatorator to Catch Me If you.
Can.

Lano (54:30):
I think that's, I think it's him.
Was he the kid in Lucas or no?
No, no or um Eating GilbertGrape or something.

Speaker 2 (54:38):
Eating Gilbert Grape I think I think he's done a lot
more different, different uhcharacters than Brad Pitt,
leonardo DiCaprio.

Lano (54:49):
He's got more range and done more different I think it's
a longer career because the redman when he's really them yeah
he's done a lot, way more jangle.

Speaker 2 (54:59):
Yeah, he's done a lot different.

Mig (55:03):
Well, the one you know, but that that's what I'm saying,
that's what I think makes agreat actor when you can like
completely transform yourselfand become that character and
not just be like the same toughguy, but in a different movie.
You know, it's like anotherperfect example for me.
But he didn't do it enough inhis career, al Pacino.

Speaker 2 (55:27):
Yeah.

Mig (55:28):
Absolutely loved him in the Godfather dude Cause like that
quiet.
You know just.

Lano (55:35):
Are you a big Scarface fan ?
People love that movie, dude.
I love Scarface.
That was good, but people likeHolded up there, I think.

Mig (55:43):
Scarface is Al Pacino's One of his best performances, and
people he didn't know Spanish ornothing right?

Lano (55:49):
No, he didn't.
But the thing is, is AlPacino's one of his best
performances?
Yeah, and people will say thathe didn't know Spanish or
nothing, right?
No, he didn't.

Mig (55:52):
But the thing is, it's like he made you believe that he was
that Cuban refugee.
Oh, that's true, you know it'slike and I see that movie over
and over and over dude, and I'mamazed.

Speaker 2 (56:07):
I guess that's kind of you can measure.
It is if the character,whatever he's trying to
accomplish, with his character.

Mig (56:12):
Yeah, exactly, Is it believable?
Believable exactly Now.
Me, though.

Speaker 2 (56:17):
I mean for me, don Cheadle, I mean everything he's
done, don Cheadle.

Mig (56:20):
Don Cheadle's great oh dude .
Don Cheadle's amazing dude.

Speaker 2 (56:23):
I don't know if you've seen them in, like those,
like those shows that he's comeon In series.

know what they do, they were.

Mig (56:39):

Consultants, yeah, so that one.

Speaker 2 (56:42):
And then there was another one he did.
That was like from the 80s,that talk.
That was about the Black Monday, you know, it was that whole
Stock yeah, yeah, yeah, exchangething that was.
That was a show too, and thatone was Really good too.

Mig (56:58):
