Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:27):
What's up, everybody. Welcome to another episode of Hot Speek News.
You're home for comic books, movies, TV shows, and typically
feature of beer of the week. I met with me
as always is Lauren the one who never needed to
go to school. Meanwhile, I needed to go to school.
And if you haven't guessed it, today we are celebrating
thirty years of Billy Madison. That's unfortunately correct, Yes, ninety

(00:47):
five film Billy Madison the early days of Adam Sandler.
If you will. If you are younger, you might not
have seen this movie. If you're older like us, then
you definitely know what this movie is. So make sure
you like, subscribe, share, follow at hop skik News anywhere
you find us on social media any podcasting platform. We
tend to go into what we've been drinking, then we
go into what we're reading or watching some news, and

(01:08):
then our main topic. So today for the theme of
Billy Madison, I'm going with bench Top Brewings megascience, because
if you know, Billy Madison is all about.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
School and Bora phyl we're like Bora phil.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
Right making fun of children.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
Oh you got the math on that. Multiple times I
kept thinking that can't be right thirtieth canniverture can't be right.
And I kept doing the math and every.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
Time you weared ten nineteen ninety five, I do.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
Need to go back to school because that math was hard.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
So I'll well, that's cool.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
This is a birthday gift from Tracy that I'm playing,
So shout out to Tracy. So you can like write
on it and it glows and she's like, she wrote
on like the card, like maybe you can use this
for your podcast. Ooh, so I took a picture with
my beer behind it. We'll see how we can have
some fun with that.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
But for I didn't know there any newtie mags.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
No, I don't have any newni bags. I don't even
have an alcoholic be because you can't drink in kindergarten.
But I did put a little clue in here. I'm
gonna drink it like the kindergarten.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
Oh god, I can't wait to cover all of that stuff. Yes,
we'll get there, but you know, first things first, let's
dive into what we've been reading or watching. So we
didn't do it last week because we were talking peacemakers.
So we're back this week, and I got some books
man a couple of horror books are after the bat
as we are weirdly enough back to school seasons, while
we did Billy Madison on top of the thirtieth anniversary,
but it's also going into September and Hyde Street Issue

(02:28):
eight is out now. Hoighly recommend that it's setting up
a very dark villain. I believe doctor Ego and the
way that Danny Meeky and Brad Anderson were drawing and
coloring this issue. There's a lot of old people and
it was very like textured, very textured art in this
and I'm definitely interested to see what they're setting up
with that. Event Horizon Dark Descent Issue one from IDW

(02:51):
Publishing is out now, and that's Christian Ward who's writing
and honestly a lot of people know him for his art,
but he is drying so no, no, no, he's writing
it and he's very I feel like under the radar
as far as a writer goes, because are.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
Too phenomenal, though I feel like he should be drawing too. Well.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
No, it works because if you know anything about Event Horizon,
it's also a horror movie and they go to hell essentially, right,
and yeah, that might be a movie to cover with
this run, because this run so far sets like they
do some jump scares. They set that really unsettling tone
right after bat, which I thought was pretty rad for
this run. Very very good. Off the bat, I did

(03:30):
Absolute Flash that was more. This gives us the backstory
of the Rogues. So Jeff Lemir and crew or some
Nick Robles, they're still doing Flash and it gives us
the backstory of the Rogues and how they all kind
of come together, and you know, eleanor Thon and Barry Allen.
Like Barry Allen isn't quite a good guy. I don't
get the vibes that he's a very much a good guy.
After this issue, it's very interesting to see how they
set him up because he's working with the government and

(03:53):
he kind of gives the Rogues their powers and there's
some things that are a little bit weird there. And
then I did the next issue of Crypto number three.
This one's very good. Ryan North kind of takes a
backseat to the art. He there's not very much dialogue, however,
the art tells the story more so. It's Crypto saving
a little girl who's lost out in the woods, and
it's it's very very compelling, really good. Like I said,

(04:14):
it's not a narratively driven issue.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
Has he been more well behaved than he is in
the movie?

Speaker 1 (04:18):
Oh yeah, Crypto. You feel bad for him. He goes
and waves. You know, Lex Luthor was kind of abusing him,
and now he was off in the mountains in the woods,
and you know.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
He's James Gunn's Crypto.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
No, no, no, no, no, not at all. But those are
kind of what I've been reading. I did read Godzilla
Destroys the Marvel Universe issue too. This is what comic
books are all about. Gary, Gary Dugan, you know, holy crap,
this from front to back, this issue is just NonStop
chaotic action. And Godzilla destroys the Bar with No Name,
which is where all the villains hang out in New

(04:49):
York City. So you got Rhino Scorpion, you know, the Sandman,
they're all And what's funny is not only are they like, hey,
we can't get no peace. This is our only safe space,
but also they're worried about their insurance. It's not going
to cover it. So it's pretty funny. But this whole
entire issue is just nuts. And I think they're gonna
getting ready to introduce Wolverine and Crew next issue. So
there's that, and then why don't you go ahead and

(05:11):
talk about what you have read before we go into
what we've been watching.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
Speaking of Wolverine, so Laura Kenney Wolverine came out last week.
I've not read this week's Wolverine yet, so this is
already out issue nine. I've been loving this run by
Erica Schultz in the past. I had read a Laura
Kenny run and I felt like this was targeting more
younger audience. This is you can be younger or you
can be older. And it's been a fantastic run, so
many amazing team ups. Her little sister showed up in
this Gabby and she was with Dracula's son and together

(05:37):
they were fighting vampires in Paris and it kind of backfired.
And now there's some magical stuff going on which brings
in other characters. So I'm really loving what she's doing
with this character, and the artwork has been phenomenal. And
the other one I read, Nod to your Hat. Quick
Stops Volume three, Issue one is out so fun. If
you are Kevin Smith fan, you should absolutely be picking
up the Quick Stop runs. They've all been like so different,

(06:00):
Like the first run was just an anthology of different stories.
I think my favorite one was because they had a
Hicks family reunion, so you got all the different Bryan
o' hollerins on one in one story. And then the
second one was a very dark and tragic backstory of
movie that was a lot more sex than I expected
and a lot oh yeah yeah. And so this I
think it's gonna be another anthology because it looks like

(06:22):
the next issue is about mal rats and this issue
was about Chasing Amy. So if you remember in the story,
it follows the movie very much, so so you'll be like, oh,
I know this story, they're just following the movie, and
then you realize, no, it's the comic book that Holden
makes for Alyssa. It's literally taken, like the last page
is like taken the movie. So it's a fun little

(06:43):
like it would have been something amazing to like get
at the movie theater when they were doing that movie,
like when you leave, like here you go like yeah,
I mean, I mean this movie came out when ninety seven,
so it's been a while, but it's very cute. I
think any Kevin Smith fan would definitely enjoy it and
I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with the
second one, so very excited.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
I actually went, there's going through my box of comics
I showed you, but I have all of like what
I got, I had the trade paperback. I've Quiver, which
is Kevin Smith's Green Arrow run, something I really love.
But it turns out now I own every single individual issue,
not to mention two issue ones of that from Kevin Smith.
And then there was also a that's that's what I

(07:20):
want to do if I ever can see him in
a comic on or maybe I can. I have two Quivers,
And then I have black Cat and Spider Man, which
Kevin Smith actually apparently wrote as well, so I have
it's like a six issue mini run that I have,
so I really would like to have him maybe sign those.
But also apparently I have the first couple issues of
Grant Morrison's All Star Superman individually, which is huge. But

(07:43):
I also found that I have Daredevil Yellow, which I've
never read, so I have all six issues that I
have them in their covers, but apparently it's I have
also him in his yellow suit that I've never read.
This story. Oh and that was a yeah, yeah, I've
never read it. It's Jeff Low Tim Sale, so I've
actually never read it. As you know, I love me

(08:04):
some Daredevil. He's he's become kind of my favorite Marvel hero.
So I have a ton of Daredevil comic books I've
never read. There was also one called Daredevil the Father,
which looks like a really dark, right like religious I
think so things called it Father's Day or something I
don't really fully know. And then I got all seven
issues of Jeff John's's Infinity Crisis. There's a ton of

(08:28):
really big comic books in there, you know. I've got
House of M. I have all the eight issues of
House of M that were in there, and just.

Speaker 2 (08:35):
That's a good one. I think I read that around
WandaVision maybe.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
Yeah, I have all these single issues too, and there's
a lot of Wolverine and stuff in there that I
was going to go through and see if you have
a COMICLEXT but I have a ton so many X
Men books, but yeah, yeah, yes, so I don't have
any books in there yet.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
Years ago Celtics, I.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
Was thinking about single issues because I have the trade,
that's what. Anyways, I did watch a couple of things
before we get I do want to talk about Wednesday.
I watched the first half of Wednesday season two. You know,
I'm not feeling it. I'm really not. I personally more
murder mystery, and you know, the mom is a lot
more involved. Cather's Aida Jones, and the family's more involved.

(09:21):
I'm just I don't know. First of all, you're releasing
it in two parts, so you've got the first what
five six episodes, if.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
That they might do that with the Boys. Really hope
they don't.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
It is so like September fourth is the next half
of this season. It's just what I don't know. It
really frustrates me. I hate these streaming models. And then
not to mention, I just feel like not a whole
lot happened, I guess, and I don't know. It wasn't
for me. But I am almost done with season two
of supermana Lois, which I have met Punk Jordan, which

(09:52):
is kind of funny, you know, super punk Jordan there
and that whole sequence, and it's getting ready to gear
up now for the last couple of episodes of that season,
and I'm really really digging that. I haven't really been
able to watch anything else. Football season's about to start,
so my watch ability is going to go way down. Yeah,
what do you got there? I know those there's some
things that you've been watching.

Speaker 2 (10:11):
So I did finally because we have showtime right now
for Dexter, So I went ahead and got caught up
on Yellow Jackets because I didn't love. I love season one,
didn't love season two, but everybody kept telling me three
got better, and I did actually like three more. And
now I'm kind of wondering if the thing that I
didn't enjoy about season two is not actually happening. So
I don't want to do any spoilers, especially because I
feel like it's still kind of new. Anybody didn't love

(10:34):
the direction that season two was going, it might be
worth checking out season three. I could be completely wrong, though,
We'll have to see where season four take them. But
I like how they ended it and wrapped it up,
and I because I feel like these girls are all
like incredibly traumatized and never actually dealt with their trauma
because they all had to lie when they came back
because they couldn't say what they were actually doing. Oh well,
and Joel McHale showed up. But it's a freaking amazing cast,

(10:56):
like so many amazing.

Speaker 1 (10:58):
Never got into that show.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
Hillary Swink just showed up that she just showed up
as one of the other girls, like the older like
they older women.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
But you know what the well because it's flashbacks. Yeah,
the grown up versions, kid versions of them, right.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
And the casting has been so good with the younger
versions and the adult versions so good. But yeah, no,
it's it's I mean, yeah, when I saw Joel McHale,
I was like, I was not expecting to show up.
You know, he showed up in Starman. I mean he's
Starman and did a good job there. Dexter's still been phenomenal,
Absolutely loving Dexter. Still just hope they stick the landing.
I just need them to stick the landing once and
just love them.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
God, all you gotta do is do it one time.
It's not that hard.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
I mean it could.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
At this point, I don't know what else to say.

Speaker 2 (11:36):
Yeah, it's like I have hope that the prequel will
stick the landing because the prequel is going to have
to end when the show, the original show starts, so
that should be fine.

Speaker 1 (11:44):
But this you would think, you would think, but you
I don't know, because uh, you know, House of Dragon
is a good example of a prequel that people are
very much like, why are they're rushing through that?

Speaker 2 (11:55):
That's a prequel that's like hundreds of years.

Speaker 1 (11:57):
I know, Dexter, it would still have to end before.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
Don't ruin it for me, okay.

Speaker 1 (12:04):
Because I don't want to see you crushed. Okay, we
did watch Peacemakers episode one, but we'll probably talk Peacemaker.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
And that's out now.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
Peacemakers one is out now, but uh, what do we
should do a live and kind of talk about Peacemaker
Peacemaker live because I've done live episodes.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
Actually should do that to live. I feel like I
was going to say one more stuff, Dexter. I wish
you were watching Dexter too, because like there was a
thing he said in this one or Batista said, and
I'm like that's not even accurate, and I'm just.

Speaker 1 (12:35):
So good accurate, Like, what what do you say?

Speaker 2 (12:38):
I can't say, I can't say, I can't say it's
going to ruin it.

Speaker 1 (12:40):
Ah, fine, Okay, I got here off air.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
Then anyways, anybody is watching it and they're in our
discord or anything, and they want to, you know, talk
about it. Since Matt's not caught up on Dexter. I
watched Watch Through the first time ever because I wasn't
one to watch it when I was little.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
Josh is big on it, he was, he was pumped.
He was texting me. He was like, south Park's on tonight.
My dad's into south Park. Know if he still is
this moment. I just never got into south Park.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
So I never got into it. And then everybody kept
talking about it.

Speaker 1 (13:05):
Well, it's funny what they're doing, obviously, man, at least
we're finding some comedy in the end of democracy. But yeah,
I just never got into south Park. Man.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
I just never called Jimmy Buffett. If we wouldn't laugh,
we would all go insane.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
Oh we're all crying.

Speaker 2 (13:19):
Yeah, let's let's.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
Go on to some news. Big news. Thunderbolts is on
Disney Plus. I finally, finally, Yeah, that one came out
forever ago, I mean.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
Seriously, So it came up on like Memories.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
No.

Speaker 2 (13:33):
I was putting working on Shutterfly albums or backing up
pictures or whatever. And we did a Wolverine and Deadpool
like rewatch and like November, and that movie came out
in August, and that.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
One definitely was twenty fifth.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
Okay, it came out in July before.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
I only remember because the day before I flew back
to the States.

Speaker 2 (13:50):
Right, no, w, And it was the day after Breille's birthday.
But yeah, that is so. It was August September. It
was four months later. It came out Thunder This movie.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
Came out May? Was it May? I guess you're I
guess it is not that this is only two months.
Why does it feel like so much? I guess we're
so used because I think Superman's coming to Superman's on digital.
I don't know if it's coming to streaming quite yet,
but it is on digital. And everybody's like, after forty
five days, oh my god, and we're complaining right in
the day. You start to wait, no jokes, six months.

(14:19):
You know, if you've got a summer movie that released
in theaters, you'd have to wait until Christmas time for
it to release on vah.

Speaker 2 (14:23):
Would get it for Christmas?

Speaker 1 (14:25):
Yeah? On Earth you could always tell, oh, I got
a video game or something like that. Yeah, don't get that.
But yeah, no, I guess it's only been a couple
of months. But look at us. Keith came out. We're
so spoiled.

Speaker 2 (14:43):
Gend out September seventeenth, with three episodes and then one
each week on Wednesday's until October twenty second.

Speaker 1 (14:48):
I'll try to watch this season. I did season one
didn't do it for me, but are going to be
given those I know, and I'm going to try to
give it a go. But speaking of which, did you
see the pictures that they were least of Jensen with
his beard shaved and everything for the flashback I shared it.

Speaker 2 (15:05):
I had a TikTok on it posted on o YouTube.
I've I went back to a little pillow top. Yes,
I saw it.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
I do love his juice broking the bear the pillow
like it's okay, you'll always have it here.

Speaker 2 (15:18):
So I feel like I should make a real with this.
So my daughters is really just seguey this really quick
because it's freaking hilarious. So my daughter and my husband
conspired to get me a custom made birthday gift and
it showed up like a week and a half after
my birthday. So I'm gonna have to whisper once I
get to a certain point. So it finally shows up,
they have me close my eyes. I turn around and
my daughter's holding a life size body pillow of Dean Winchester,

(15:41):
and at the bottom she added a quote saving people
hunting things the family business. I'm already crying, laughing, like,
what am I going to do with this? This is
the most ridiculous gift I've ever received in my entire life.
This is absurd. Then she turns it around and it's
Soldier Boy.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
She's like, why am I getting a stupid pillow? This
is such an old lady.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
Oh my god, it has just just it's weird to
have a pillow with somebody's actual face on it, Like,
this is weird. Butrick ones, but Josh is laughing. Brielle's laughing,
and then she's like, I googled Soldier Boy quotes, so
there's a quote at the bottom and right there my
tummy drop. But at the bottom it says I spart
the star Spangled banner.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
I'm like, fantastic, Oh my god, that's amazing. I didn't
know there was quotes.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
But then Brielle is, you know, she's very proud of
herself because it's really funny. And then when she leaves
the room, I go to Josh and I'm like, do
you not remember soldier boys showing up in gen V
and he's like, no, why, and so I played him
the clip of it looks ridiculous because he's talking about
the one girl who's mind they're in and he's like,
she used to hump that soldier boy pillow till she
saw God. He's going on and on about what I

(16:44):
think it was Kate did with her soldier boy pillow
and he's like, boys, they come and go, but she
always comes back to a little pillow talk. So, I mean,
my daughter's thirteen, watched the Boys till she's thirty because
she has no idea what she actually gifted. Merist back
on try what's going on?

Speaker 1 (17:00):
Anywayspaceball's two has solved the John Candy issue. Remember when
we were all wondering what was up with Barf? Well,
his son, Chris Candy will be coming in to play Barf.
Should we lives longer, ages slower? So yeah, that makes
a lot of sense. I'm okay with that. I mean,
I actually had no idea he had a son. I'm
going to be honest. Has he you know, maybe might
just own ignorance. But that's that's really cool that he

(17:22):
gets to carry his dad's legacy.

Speaker 2 (17:23):
Man to Bill Pullman's son and John candy Son.

Speaker 1 (17:27):
It's just like when I was watching preseason football and
I Sawterrell Owen's son catch a pass and I was like,
oh wow, I'm really old because I used to watch
his dad play football. And now these actors have their
kids in movies and I'm like, oh wow, I'm really
old because I remember watching their dad when I was
growing up.

Speaker 2 (17:43):
And then he made a children's book, didn't.

Speaker 1 (17:45):
He, tarl Owens. I don't know, but I.

Speaker 2 (17:47):
Feel like he did, like Torell Owens shares or something.
He might have, but maybe he made it for the
kid that is now playing professional football.

Speaker 1 (17:55):
So many other like NFL but Frank Gore Junior, Sante
Samuel Junior. They always aim their kids after themselves, right,
So you're just seeing them and it's just like, oh wow, No,
that's that's not depressing at all. And all these people are.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
Little TEA learns to Share by charl Owens.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
I wonder if it's about is in the NFL Jesus.

Speaker 2 (18:13):
Teaching how to share? I'm sure on top of the.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
Balds that I really found this morning. Anyways, Marvel's Zombies
has been moved up to September twenty fourth it will
be four episodes and just in time for something.

Speaker 2 (18:24):
Oh like I was gonna say Waconda forever, just.

Speaker 1 (18:26):
Like yes, Eyes of Wakanda, Eyes of Waconda, thank you. Yes,
a lot of Waconda's out there, that's right, but there's
only one.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
Which was so good. I don't think a lot of
people watched it because I haven't heard a lot of talk.
But it was really really rare.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
You know, shout out to our boy CLZ know. He
shared on threads that you know, he really only saw
promotion from us and Megan from Vigilante Vibes and I
think one other. But you're right, I really didn't see
any big promotion with this or iron Heart. Marvel kind
of dropped. I don't know if they were just I
don't know.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
It was more for Ironheart than Eyes of which animated.
They don't push Animated as much.

Speaker 1 (19:00):
But how much chatter and stuff of Daredevil was there?
And then since the filming of seasons I love Daredevil
at the same time, it's kind of one of those things,
that's why are we not Marvel? What do you do?
Just pay me, I'll promote it for pay us, We'll
promote it for you. You can pay us so much
less than your marketing budget probably is, and we'll promote away.
I guess. I don't know, but I just love it's

(19:22):
weird and I came in when it sucks fantastic. Anyways,
we got some uh, we got some more things.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
Fallow two season two. We'll be back this December, and
Only in the Building is back on Hulu September ninth.

Speaker 1 (19:34):
Ooh, already I never finished the last season, did you.

Speaker 2 (19:37):
Yeah, I don't remember what happened, but I finished it.
I want to wrap it up with these last three
pieces and news.

Speaker 1 (19:43):
Yeah, so Netflix has renewed Wednesday first season three ironically. Yeah, well,
The Batman Too is allegedly supposed to be starting to
film October first, or starting to film in the spring,
and then they're going to release it October one, twenty
twenty seven. I'll believe it when I'm sitting in theaters
at this point not buying it. It reminds me that

(20:04):
James gun is already writing the next It's not a
Superman film, but it's a film with Superman in it,
so I'm kind of curious what that is going to be.

Speaker 2 (20:12):
It's not Batman versus Superman, although I think he would do.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
Okay, how hilarious would it be? So he just the
DCU starts off right with Man of Steel, the DCU
starts off with Superman. What if he then did BVS
it did it? But oh my, the oh that would
be Just.

Speaker 2 (20:27):
Do you watch Jane's on Bob Reboot?

Speaker 1 (20:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (20:30):
Okay, I remember, Like I love the scene like Ben
Affleck actually gets the little nod of somehow they're talking
about Batman and he's like, and you know, then you
become Thomas Wayne for what's his mother's name? I can
never remember the name escapes me or something I watched
that long ago. Maybe think of that. Okay, and our
last piece of news, are you gonna see this in theater?
Are you gonna wait?

Speaker 1 (20:49):
This movie looks dope? They you know I've seen, like
I don't. I think there was like a teaser trailer
saw one of the movies and it looks really good.
What's his name? Oscar Isaac is in it. I think
Christian Bale might be too.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
Talking about Del Toros Frankenstein film. Yeah, did we say that?

Speaker 1 (21:06):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (21:07):
Oh, I didn't hear you as hardy.

Speaker 1 (21:08):
It comes out my birthday weekend, so I think yeah,
I'm gonna go see this. The movie looks dope. I'm
really wait and then it comes out on Netflix. No've
ebe seven so oh anyways, moving on, we'll be like.

Speaker 2 (21:20):
Maybe they're just hoping everyone sees it and complain.

Speaker 1 (21:22):
About the box office. Then if you're gonna already announce
your Netflix date of November seventh, it.

Speaker 2 (21:30):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (21:31):
All right, let's go thirty years back in the past.
We're gonna go and to a time where things were simple,
maybe made even less sense, but yet made sense at
the same time.

Speaker 2 (21:42):
Biggest argument was what is better shampoo or conditioner?

Speaker 1 (21:46):
And you got drunken chased imaginary penguins around while you got.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
Imagine with your teacher. Pretty real to me.

Speaker 1 (21:54):
It's real to me. Uh yeah, We'll be right back
with Billy Madison. I just can't believe what the fuck
are we doing anyway? Okay, I'm getting yelled at. I
accidentally used I used the last of the vanilla extract
and carry's going to make banana bread. Now she's yelling
at me, so I got thrown off. Sorry, actually I
didn't even use the last of it, Oliver did. I

(22:14):
just forgot to pick some up anyways, we're back Billy
Madison child all right. It debuted February tenth, nineteen ninety five.
It hit movie theaters everywhere, gave us the hit song.

Speaker 2 (22:24):
Back to School.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
It had a wondrous ten million dollar budget. It made
twenty six point four million dollars. It developed a cult following,
and it actually hit number one in the North American
box office. Now with twenty six million dollars of the
total box office run. That might not seem like a lot,
but it's nineteen ninety five dollars, right. I don't know
what else came out in that year. A lot of stuff,

(22:47):
but actually I think there was a Batmanton movie out
that year.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
This was just for the honest came out that year anyways.

Speaker 1 (22:53):
It was written by Adam Sandler and Tim Harriley, directed
by Tarama Davis. It starred Adam Sandler, Chris Farley, Nor
McDon donald, who I forgot he was in this. He
was young in this too. Adam Tander looked young, but
Norm McDonald was young, Darren McGavin, Bradley Whitford, Bridget Wilson
who Lord ah Man anyhow, and a lot of other people.

(23:14):
So the story anyways, Billy Madison is an entitled freeloader
with a rich dad. He's twenty seven years old and
still living at home. His dad wants to give him
the company and retire, However, he doesn't trust him to
do so. His creepy business partner is happy to take
it off his hands very convenient. So to prove himself,
Billy makes a bet and goes back to school, starting
with kindergarten. The more grades he passes, the more graduation

(23:36):
parties he has, and the more the business partner tries
to sabotage him. Billy tries to give up, thinking that
he's lost, until his hot third grade teacher kicks his ass.
She want to touch the heinie I mean in that pool?
Oh god, she like I said she was Sonya Blade
Immortal Combat and she was.

Speaker 2 (23:50):
I found out today though she was only twenty in
this and now I feel.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
Yeah, so she's fifty. She chanced she.

Speaker 2 (23:59):
Looks not twenty.

Speaker 1 (24:01):
It's the nineties. Okay, she was older because the way
they dress her. Yeah, it's the nineties. Ever looked older
for Billy between anyway, Wait, she's only fifty. I got
a chance, all right? Sick Uh she beats him up.
Yeah where was I? If you got me thinking all
sorts of things. Billy wants a second chance, so him
and the business partner, the Weasel, go ahead to head
in an academic to cathlon. The weasel loses when the

(24:23):
tie breaking question is about business X, so he pulls
out a gun. Out what you do?

Speaker 2 (24:29):
Yeah? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (24:30):
Uh fun before Columbine. So that didn't age great specially
shoot anyways, guns and schools right.

Speaker 2 (24:36):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (24:37):
Billy recently called and apologized to an old kid he
used to bully after saying it doesn't feel good to
be called a loser, does it? Billy? And uh he boy,
I'm glad I called that guy. He shows up, shoots
the weasel in the ass. We wrap up with Billy
passing on taking the business, gives it to the nice
business partner was Earl or ed and if you go
back to school and become a teacher. I loved Earl.
Earl was awesome. Absolutely loved Earl. Yeah, there's there's a

(24:58):
lot here, so uh, I this is a movie I
kind of just grew up seeing on TV and watching
and I don't remember the first time I ever watched it,
but I definitely remember Little Bridget and again she was
in Mortal Kombat. I just have to keep bringing that
up because that was the first movie I think I
saw her in. Funny enough, Wortal Kombat two by the way,
not one, she wasn't in one, but Mortal kmbat too. Lord,

(25:19):
But do you did you watch this movie a lot
growing up? Like what's Oh?

Speaker 2 (25:22):
Yeah? I mean we still quote it all the time.
I don't think I can, you know, tell the kids
to shampoo their hair without talking about how shampoo.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
I honestly forgot how many lines we quote that are
like from this movie at the same time in aged But.

Speaker 2 (25:35):
We are all now dumber for having listened.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
To that, Like a simple you're wrong would have done right.
This is the single most dumbest thing I have ever heard.
Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (25:46):
And then so hot want to touch their pants?

Speaker 1 (25:53):
Yet, Miles Davis, we can't go on a.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
Road trip without ginger brushes. I mean, we're visiting you
in North Carolina. We definitely said that in the car Chris.

Speaker 1 (26:01):
Farle, Oh my god. And then there are some things
that definitely did not age well in this You know,
I thought the principal was a little weird, like that
was kind of something that you know, he was obviously
hitting on Billy with the Valentine's Day car and then
he said he's horny and then he tries to hunt.
That didn't like fit into the movie. It was kind
of weird, but I love that he was a wrestler
who killed somebody and he kind of saves the day

(26:22):
at the end as well. But then they also use
like the R word in this, and it was like, oof,
that didn't age well all. Then there's a lot of
what was the drunk chicks like eighteen year old girls
or something like that on the front page, and you're like,
oh god.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
I mean that was I feel like this was peak
girl's gone wild. I mean those were all like you might.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
Have been right, You're right, you're right. I mean I
was a kid then, so it was okay. But now
I'm old man, right, exactly, an old man? Gross? Where
are your parents? So I was told there's hot milks
in my area? Jesus Christ, what is this? Go back
to school?

Speaker 2 (26:56):
Hot MILFs?

Speaker 1 (26:57):
But yeah, no, why don't you take us in, Well,
we'll kind of give some of our favorite scenes and
things like that. Why don't you give us some fun
facts as we kind of talk about some sequences and scenes.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
So Chris Farley before that precious ending, you know, ending
your precious trip, he took six shots of espresso before
the bust scene and.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
Then sure it was just espresso and not something else
that he was known.

Speaker 2 (27:15):
For, Probably not, but then improvise the scene where his
face got all read. I know, the more you hear
about it, the more it's like, oh my gosh. Of
course he died.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
So it was, oh my god, just the nineties comedy,
and it reminds oh, the Sloppy Joe's. Sorry, I didn't
mean to totally derailic the fun fact there, but as
soon as I, you know, the lunch Lady with the
Sloppy Joe's instantly took me back. We used to live
off of the SNLS, the SNL Specials with Chris Farley,
Adam Sandler, Will Ferrell, all of those, and so I

(27:43):
just immediately started singing Sloppy Joe because Adam Sandler had
a song you performed that was the lunch Lady. Yeah,
Slop a Joe, Slop slap a Joe.

Speaker 2 (27:52):
And I still anytime I'm scooping anything up that's sloppy,
I mean, I'm actually sloppy for you.

Speaker 1 (27:56):
Yeah, God, yes, oh man.

Speaker 2 (27:59):
But so he also in that scene quotes you know, good, great,
grand wonderful. This is actually the same quote he says
in Airheads, which came out the year before, which Sandler
and Buscemi.

Speaker 1 (28:09):
Were on another. Yes, another Adam Sandler. They were in
the rock Band. I love that movie too. God, so
many good movies.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
Yeah, and that one has Brendan Frasier too, So this
is a good one. The dodgeball scene. I wouldn't have
believed this if I hadn't seen it in so many places.
So the kids' parents all okayed, Adam Sandler hitting their
kids pretty hard, so while they were filming, they had
to take the camera off the kids as quickly as
they could so that the kids were not filmed crying. However,
it was said that the kids still did enjoy playing

(28:35):
with Adam Sandler.

Speaker 1 (28:36):
That's because you know, the first he gets hit. Okay,
I have something to say about this. I thought in Dodgeball,
if you got hit in the face, you weren't out,
like you had to hit below the neck.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
Maybe not in the nineties.

Speaker 1 (28:46):
I guess you're probably right. You're probably not in the
nineties because as soon as you get hit in the face,
and he goes in he sees the kindergarten teacher doing
some weird stuff. But we could also relate to the
kindergarten teacher because she's like, this is a special time
for even teachers too, and you're like, yeah, no, I
respect that.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
Who's also the kids on the playground?

Speaker 1 (29:01):
Probably other teachers, I don't know. Because he steps out though,
and then he gets the ball. It's like, oh, and
he just hammering the kids, And you're right, though, wouldn't
a teacher maybe have stopped that? I don't know. Not
so fun fact, So I worked at a school once
and we were kicking a ball around in a There's
this really short, tiny kid and I kicked this rubber

(29:21):
ball and because I didn't, I just kicked it out
of the way and I ended up taking this little
kid out like a friinger. It was like three, took
this kid out like a bowling pin.

Speaker 2 (29:30):
Dude.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
Oh. I felt horrible because he kind of scraped his
head up, he like face playing it in the ground,
and I was like, oh my god, felt so bad.
But it kind of reminded me of the scene and
that I wasn't but I wasn't trying to hit kids,
all right. So just know that the Disney Cruise was
not my first foray into kicking kids, because I also
kicked a ball and took out a kid like a
bowling pin.

Speaker 2 (29:50):
Once Josh and Logan will go and play a dodgeball
like launch in the second like some kid gets a
good shot on Logan, Josh turns into Adam Sandler. Oh yeah,
there we go. It's like big kids with the little
kids come on, all right. So in the famous insult
that the academic to Cathleine Judge gives to Billy after
giving his speech, he tells him, quote everyone in this
room is now dumber for having listened to it. End quote.

(30:11):
So at Saturday Night Live, Jim Downey would often say
that to Chris Farley when he would pitch sketches in
the Writers.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
Oh my god, that's crazy. But Chris Pher, I want
to hear some of those, because I'm the sketches that
Farley did. I'm very interested to see.

Speaker 2 (30:23):
What we don't know who wrote if he wrote them, though, right,
he was good at ad living, but I don't know
how good he was at writing.

Speaker 1 (30:29):
Well. When Norman McDonald's character was drunk. He was actually drunk, which.

Speaker 2 (30:33):
She was method acting.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
I love it so much more because he didn't have
to do a lot in this movie. He was just
sitting in the chair by the pool with the other
guy most of the time, which again, some things don't
age well, like at the end when the creepy fat
guy goes to try to kiss the high school girl.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
And you're like, oh god, no, but she does stop him,
so she does. Yes, Yes, wasn't she a borihil girl
or no?

Speaker 1 (30:54):
Yeah, she was the one who was sitting next to
him in this and ever because Billy is like you
want to kiss me or something like that in the
middle the class and everything. Yeah, that was her. He was.

Speaker 2 (31:01):
That's another one we've quote, like Josh said that to
me and I'm like, no, I'm trying to learn about chlorophyll.

Speaker 1 (31:07):
Darren McGavin, who played Billy's dad, said that this movie
in a Christmas story. Other movies he gets recognized for
the most. Is he the dad and Christmas story?

Speaker 2 (31:14):
Yes? And you know what's funny, as I didn't put
that together until I no. He real likes putting this
movie on before school each year, and I was like,
oh no, shit, I didn't realize I was the same guy.
It's ten years, twelve years apart.

Speaker 1 (31:24):
That's it, twelve years apart.

Speaker 2 (31:26):
Christmas Story came on eighty three.

Speaker 1 (31:28):
It looks older in a Christmas story.

Speaker 2 (31:30):
He does, Well, I think they try to make that movie.
They probably did because it takes fifties. Yeah it was.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
Forties, but you're right, yeah, in my forties.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
Well, you're right. I don't like a Christmas story anyways,
So maybe that's Christmas Story.

Speaker 2 (31:42):
I feel like it's such a good representation of Christmas
from a child's perspective. It's so cute and innocent, and
the memory of the thoughts in his head or just
I think.

Speaker 1 (31:49):
Because it was overplayed the twenty four hours of Christmas Story.
Growing up, it was always on the TV all day
of the long.

Speaker 2 (31:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
Oh god, well, anyways, he.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
Never sits down to watch it.

Speaker 1 (31:59):
Veronica, she was only twenty years old, and uh, studio
wanted somebody older, but Sandler wanted her. I don't Matt
can't imagine why, because.

Speaker 2 (32:08):
He wanted to do it. Josh ask, do you need
me to help you study? Like Billy Mass when I
was in law school?

Speaker 1 (32:13):
No, and so it's going to be me. That's going
to be taken Chris Farley, that is correct. That's I
say that all the time, and the same exact like
the way he does it. Because anytime I'll quiz like
the people at work or something like that, or just
the kids, I'll be like, that is correct, I think.

Speaker 2 (32:28):
And it's funny, is like how often we quote this
stuff and we forget where it's from. It's just so
ingrained and it.

Speaker 1 (32:34):
Is the culture, man. I mean, we grew up watching
these films and so many of these moments are just
built into our core memories for whatever reason that I
really feel like with streaming services, a lot of our
kids just don't have no because they're quoting the movie.
Quotes are a part of my just everyday language. And
know so many people don't know what I'm talking about

(32:55):
and I'm just oh, my right, that's that was awkward.

Speaker 2 (32:58):
But no, it's true to because it's you'd be flicking
through the channels and then Billy Madison beyond, but it
would be halfway through, so you watched the end of
it and then it would like you know, you catch
it another day and it be another part, so then
you end up watching it.

Speaker 1 (33:09):
Direct TV, so you'd have like the East coast again,
and then I had the West coast in a couple hours,
like I could just watch it again from when it
would started the West coast time.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
Right, It's like, how many movies did you watch the
end and then the beginning?

Speaker 1 (33:20):
Did I unintentionally ever tell you? Speaking of misplaced movie
quotes or not misplaced, but people who don't get movie quotes.
I went on a date with a girl once and
I said by Felicia because she said something just ridiculous,
and she goes, you know, that's not my name, right.
She did not know the quote, and I was just like,
this is before, like the quote?

Speaker 2 (33:40):
Did you tell her though?

Speaker 1 (33:42):
Yeah? I go, no, this is from Friday and she
hadn't seen it, and I was just like, oh Jesus,
that was I mean, it was never gonna work out.
First of all, she never saw Friday, but the fact
that she legitimately thought I thought her name was.

Speaker 2 (33:56):
Before. I don't know how Logan doesn't ask like, why
are you calling me clerk or Rose? I was like
you serious, clerk, and he's.

Speaker 1 (34:03):
Like, yeah, anyways, what happened at that? What about the assets? Oh?

Speaker 2 (34:08):
My god, academic thing. You got brand new eyes, new.

Speaker 1 (34:14):
Got new eyes, and I still feel Another.

Speaker 2 (34:16):
Quote from a different movie, Billy Madison ends his uneducated
Industrial Revolution speech by yelling quote high school football rules
end quote, which ends a very awkward silence, and then
of course the crowd gets all excited and cheers. This
is the same thing that happened in Bill Shooting of
course venture, where a high school student ends his uneducated
speech with san dimas, oh yeah, and it also ends

(34:38):
reference movies.

Speaker 1 (34:39):
I love it, I love it, kenneres Man love him.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
So shout out to John Canny, who was going to
be offered the role of the principle that he's sadly
passed too soon.

Speaker 1 (34:47):
Come on, man. The other names on Boucemi's kill list
were crew members. Fun fact, let's hope they also apologize
to him. In The original working title of Tommy Boy
was Billy the Third, a Midwestern but since this was
shot a few months before, Lorden Michaels, who produced Tommy Boy,
insisted that the name be changed to avoid confusion. Now,
I was thinking about this because there was a string
of films Tommy Boy about, you know, the stupid oh

(35:11):
getting the parents company which I guess maybe.

Speaker 2 (35:14):
Oh yeah, I never even put that together.

Speaker 1 (35:16):
Yeah, you have Billy Madison, and then you have Tommy Boy,
and then even to like a degree, you have Black
Sheep with again Chris Farley. Well, yeah, because it's about
his brother, the politician who he's kind of out there,
so you kind of you have all these movies that
are kind of the same but different, but they play
on the stupid son or stupid brother role, and but
they're all really good classic movies. Oh my, I quote

(35:40):
that all the time, do you too, yeas, I'm like
that guy and a little coate. Oh my god, oh
so good man love those. During the bathtub scene, Adam
Sandler says conditioner is better because it leaves the hair
silky and smooth. Silky smooth is the trademark line about
the hair about hair that Adam Saydinger would later use.
And you don't mess with the zoh on. That was

(36:00):
not a good movie.

Speaker 2 (36:01):
I was gonna say, it's not a terrible movie. It
was not good. Oh god, since two thousand and eight,
so we already talked about this lunch lady in her
sloppy Joe's So the principle in real life is actually
was an opera singer before he was see that.

Speaker 1 (36:14):
We can really see that.

Speaker 2 (36:15):
So Billy's house or his dad's house is the same
house as the X Mansion. There have been so many
things really filmed there. Yes, I think it was also
Green Arrow's house at one point. Oh and it was,
Oh my gosh, what was the other thing I saw that?
It was, Oh, it's the house that the reft breaks
into at the beginning of the rep the movie.

Speaker 1 (36:31):
Dennis Lee, Ooh, that's pretty dope. That's I had a
lot of stuff film there. That's kind of cool. I
didn't even realize that was all or connecting.

Speaker 2 (36:40):
I did not pick up any of that on my own.
These are all researched.

Speaker 1 (36:43):
Fun fact, it's true. Well did you know that Robert
de Niaro once said that Billy Madison is his favorite movie?
What I would never have guessed that if you had
a gun into my head, that's for sure.

Speaker 2 (36:52):
That is pretty funny. So our lake Yull and Orlando
here has a lot of swans and then they look
at you, and then you have to say, where are
you looking at me? Swan?

Speaker 1 (37:04):
I just love that he gets drunken, sees a penguin
you know, for no reason, it has nothing there the penguin.

Speaker 2 (37:11):
Penguins probably smoking weed, but like, what is like is
that laced?

Speaker 1 (37:16):
He just sees that. So he goes to her house
and he sees the penguin. Oh so, so we too interrupt.
Another line of you was often and just the like
what is this penguin all about?

Speaker 2 (37:30):
Now?

Speaker 1 (37:31):
The one thing that bothers you off the bat with
this movie is the wet shoes from He's in the
pool with his fricking shoes on. He gets out, his
shoes are soaking wet, and he's walking with his wet shoes.
I understand he's ineberated. Oh my god, man, have some
decency that bothers me. I'm sorry. I had to get
that off my chest. I just really had to get
that one off my chest.

Speaker 2 (37:48):
Okay, I understand.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
Couldn't ever you know, Jack Nicholson and Meg Ryan, I
never would have That's a well is this nineteen seventy
four Jack Nicholson, Meg Ryan? The fact that that was
a fun to be Those debates were things not you know,
would you do Meg Ryan or Jack Nicholson, but would
you rather A or B? Were big debates that we
used to always do in high school all the time.
When we were sitting around eating sandwiches, she giggled, I thought,

(38:17):
you got it wright with the bat.

Speaker 2 (38:19):
At first, I was thinking I was picturing Chris Barley
eating all the kids sandwiches.

Speaker 1 (38:23):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 2 (38:23):
Then I realized, do you read.

Speaker 1 (38:25):
That damn sasquatch?

Speaker 2 (38:26):
Yeah? Oh my god, what was I saying something? I
was talking about somebody believing something. And then I'm like,
they probably think it was a damn sasquatch. It was me.

Speaker 1 (38:35):
Probably I might have been in a texchain.

Speaker 2 (38:37):
I just kept saying. I'm like, it's because of the sasquatch.
And I didn't even remember that was Billy Madison.

Speaker 1 (38:43):
Two things that age really well for me in this movie.
Number one, sixty nine jokes never age. Thirty years on.
We're still laughing at sixty nine jokes because he's in
the class and they say sixty nine, he's sixty nine nice,
and I'm just like, hey, look see they never each.
The other thing is when I doubled dare you to
touch her boot? That's assault? Brother, listen, Oh my god,
I forgot that. Then he does it. Shout out to you,

(39:06):
all right, shout out to you Billy Madison. You may
not have a brain, but you were smart enough. No,
that's a salt. However, you still did it anyways, which
isn't funny. But she already knew, she heard the whole thing.

Speaker 2 (39:15):
She knew.

Speaker 1 (39:16):
Okay, she consented, she said that she knew.

Speaker 2 (39:20):
But she looks like she's aged quite well.

Speaker 1 (39:24):
Alright, they got a chance. Nice, you know. I again,
this movie, some things aged well, some things didn't. But
do you have any big memories from school? Not going
through all twelve grades in a month or whatever like that.
But are there any like special school moments that you
had that you kind of think about when you watch
this movie. I mean I remember school all right.

Speaker 2 (39:47):
No, I had a lot of fun in school. Yeah,
high school was so fun. I mean I remember learning
about chlorophyll and my teacher literally ate a plant. It
was funny. Shout out to miss.

Speaker 1 (39:57):
Lettuce plants.

Speaker 2 (39:59):
Well, he literally pulled up plant out to describe like
photosynthesis and chlorophyll and all that and whatnot. He's literally
biting the plant, He's like, and then he spits on
the plant because it needs water, and then he like
breathes on. He also crawled across our desks to show
us how ambos move.

Speaker 1 (40:15):
All right, Hey, he sounds awesome. Actually, legitimately, if I
had more teachers like that, I probably would have paid
more attention in school.

Speaker 2 (40:21):
Yeah, and he was, Yeah, he was a good teacher.
I mean everybody who went to Piper who had him,
I'll talk about him still and you still like, you know,
sing what is it glucose see six stage twelve O
six singing kids?

Speaker 1 (40:31):
See that stuff would have stuck with me and said
I had to sit there and listen to teachers just
like read off the freaking board. And I'm adhd and
was never diagnosed as a teenager. And so it makes
a lot of sense why I didn't do good in
school if people are just talking at me the whole time.
I didn't pay attention for shit.

Speaker 2 (40:47):
And I'm ever getting a question wrong about energy and
he's like, you need energy to spin your rifle, and
he drew a little picture of somebody spinning a run.

Speaker 1 (40:54):
That's that's what we need, that's what I that's what
I'm there because I had a biology teacher that was like,
you're the smartest kid in his class. You just don't
pay attention. Well, no, ship, I can't pay right, it's
not my fault.

Speaker 2 (41:06):
But nobody wanted to go deliver anything to his class
because if you were a former student, he would quizz
you when you walked in.

Speaker 1 (41:11):
Oh yeah, no, come on, dude, don't beat that guy.
All right.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
I never used my pants at school. I didn't eat
school lunch. I didn't play dodgeball because I would just
hang out with my friends at pe and stuff.

Speaker 1 (41:22):
I had a tenth grade teacher, Miss Mitchell. She was hot,
all right, relates to the hot teachers.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
She was.

Speaker 1 (41:29):
She was like freshly new teacher. I wonder what she's doing.
She loved basketball, her shoulder basketball. We're just reminiscing now.
Kids just had the hot teacher, and Lauren's talking about
how she escaped without eating glue. I'm very proud of
the tale of two school systems, Florida school glue in

(41:50):
the Massachusetts school system, where uh, I had hot teachers
and ate a lot of sandwiches and got into some fights.
I did get into some fights.

Speaker 2 (41:58):
I ate a lot of sandwiches and my friends. It
didn't connect those.

Speaker 1 (42:01):
My friends and I would just largely, you know, we
used to just be dumb. We would do our thing.
We had our table and then we would all meet up.
I dated this one girl through high school. Like everybody
would always come on the military base I lived at,
and then we would just do stupid stuff all the time.
We used to break in the garages and have bare
knuckle boxing fights, and then we would just walk around
the neighborhood all the time. We would actually walk to
the grocery store and pick up actual real sandwiches, cheeseburger,

(42:24):
sub man.

Speaker 2 (42:25):
We walk anywhere. We walked on the beach. Yeah, we
just ran for endurance without a certain attires.

Speaker 1 (42:31):
We did a lot of stuff. We once were on
top of the gym and the cops came because they
thought we were trying to burn it down, and we
ran away and got away clean.

Speaker 2 (42:39):
Is that crazy? Had to like like cops showed up.

Speaker 1 (42:42):
Oh, the cops showed up. What happened? Please do tell
because it seemed like it was a funny story because
just cut out.

Speaker 2 (42:50):
No, that just happened a lot like back in high school.
And I feel like my oldest like never in her
life experience that. But it was more like I want
to say, like American pibe, but people didn't go running
and crashing all over each the right.

Speaker 1 (43:01):
I mean, obviously the movies age the best, but I
feel like they were pretty good representations. You know, we
didn't I never, We didn't have mass parties for school.

Speaker 2 (43:08):
But wait, that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (43:10):
We would do a lot of you know, get together.
We would hang out at my friend's apartment and the
smell of curry from the amount of like Indian people
that lived around him would mask the smell of us
smoking weed or I'm sorry, eating sandwiches on his balcony
and then us drink and so that's that was our
hangout spot because the smell would mask what we were
actually doing. It was awesome and we'd hang out in

(43:32):
his bathroom.

Speaker 2 (43:32):
And do it too.

Speaker 1 (43:33):
Stupid again, stupid kids, you know. And nowadays, of course,
if my kids do stuff like what do you do it?
Oh my god? But I also like to think that
I would. I know, if my kids are going to
do it, I'd rather them do it to where I
could at least monitor or like be open with me.

Speaker 2 (43:49):
So if you need to you they think we're stupid,
like you were with us when we were in for
our pizza and it was like eleven o'clock in the
morning and really text her son about something and he's like,
are you guys He's like seventeen. He's like, why are
you guys drinking already? And she's like, we're not drinking already.
It's like they just judge, but you're right.

Speaker 1 (44:06):
Well, I mean, I'm glad, thank god you're not out there.
Thank god you were an academic and you didn't get
in trouble like we did. But we turned out already.
I would like to say we had life experiences and
they really crafted us who we are today.

Speaker 2 (44:17):
I'll like say things to Kaylee about, oh, you know,
if you're gonna have once of alcohol, you I'll call
me and she's like, Mom, I'm not stupid like you guys.
But you know what, thank you get. All my friends
who I grew up with drinking all the time all
bought her drinks when she turned twenty one.

Speaker 1 (44:29):
I'm not dead. I didn't die, but kind of crazy
when you think about the experiences that we had, and
I wonder how much of like social media and phones
because we didn't have any of that. You you know,
we had pages and you know.

Speaker 2 (44:43):
Really a meeper and a thirty five millimeter camera.

Speaker 1 (44:46):
We just get together and you didn't have to worry
about things going up on social media like that, right,
And I wonder if that plays a large part because
you don't want something to do.

Speaker 2 (44:53):
But I wonder how smart we would have been to
even consider take that into consideration.

Speaker 1 (44:57):
Back then, we probably would have had some pretty awful still.
I mean, we had MySpace. We ranked our friends, all right.

Speaker 2 (45:03):
I didn't have anything.

Speaker 1 (45:06):
We ranked our friends all right.

Speaker 2 (45:07):
Gosh, so I remember that in doing that in law school,
but it is it's a mix sense.

Speaker 1 (45:14):
Do you give, like a dissertation on the law as
to why you ranked to where they were at. I
feel like that I ranked you number five today, Jeffrey, because.

Speaker 2 (45:25):
Yeah, my top eight. I think Tim was in my
top eight, Erica, Josh, probably Brandy just now.

Speaker 1 (45:31):
If we're all friends, then we had top eights now
and if I was in your top eight, yeah, I
would definitely thumbs up you, and not in a nice way,
but I really aggressive thumbs up.

Speaker 2 (45:43):
You know what. I asked Yell earlier if she had
a penguin, and she said no. I just realized there's
a hot penguin sticker on here. I need to take
another picture.

Speaker 1 (45:52):
Take another picture.

Speaker 2 (45:53):
I'm happy that the kids today don't drink like we do,
but I do. You're going to miss sat on some memories.
But yes, at the same time, I'm like, how did
we not die?

Speaker 1 (46:03):
I am so shocked I have made it this far
alive and not paraplegic or just not even I'm not
even talking drinking. Oh, I'm not even talking about drinking.
And we did dumb stuff. We used to. And I
know we we spired away from Billy Madison and this
is more into like things like.

Speaker 2 (46:18):
We're still on par with Billy Madison because.

Speaker 1 (46:21):
He did some stuff right, and so a lot of
things that I did. Growing up. We used to play
football and we would pick somebody we didn't like that
weekend or that day, and we would brutally tackle. We're
talking not just tackle, but while we're talking brutally tackle.
And then we would bare knuckle fight in the backyard
all the time, punch each beat the shit of each other.
We would play sports. We would jump off of roofs,
we would break into garages, we would sneak out of

(46:43):
the house.

Speaker 2 (46:44):
We would do I feel like that's dumb boy stuff.

Speaker 1 (46:45):
I mean, we do a lot of dumb stuff, Like
so many stupid stuff that like hurt our We we
got hurt, and so it's amazing that I'm still able
to walk and run, and granted have had knee surgeries,
but that was in my late twenties due to sports,
not due to being stupid.

Speaker 2 (47:00):
I'm big off a building when you were.

Speaker 1 (47:01):
Literally yeah, I mean we would literally Jackass was big then.
So obviously a lot of people came or we go
out there and do Jackass videos in which they would
be like, don't do that.

Speaker 2 (47:10):
But people that like seriously died being inspired.

Speaker 1 (47:14):
It was like a whole thing. And then of course
they made a show right ridiculousness, which is stupid because
that show just was on too much. Anyways. Yeah, well
you're right, different children experiences. This movie definitely the mom
Now I'll take it, yeah, all day long, as long
as the kids are good. And this movie is crazy
in its own right. I it's not like a good movie,

(47:35):
but I still very much enjoy this movie. So I'm
gonna would you give it out of five? We're putting
things up on like letterbox, what would you? Because I
probably a three point five realistically if we're talking like, yeah,
movie two point five, But I enjoy it. Man, come on,
it's mindless entertainment.

Speaker 2 (47:52):
Right. If I'm drinking some special brew and it's like
nineteen ninety nine and I'm hanging out with my friends,
I'm gonna give it a four point five. But yeah,
in reality, it's stupid humor.

Speaker 1 (48:01):
It's mindless fun, and this is what I want in
a movie.

Speaker 2 (48:04):
Kicked off Happy Madison Productions, it did, but I feel
like it was his. This is the first movie you
think of when you think of Adam Sandler's start.

Speaker 1 (48:13):
Yeah, well, think of the nineties. I mean, we were
showing the kids ace Ventura for example. The nineties was
an absolute tear. As far as comedian, You've got a question.
You know, Jim Carrey started got really big in the nineties,
Adam Sandler got really big in the nineties. Chris Farley
was a massive character in the nineties.

Speaker 2 (48:29):
They were all from Snlving.

Speaker 1 (48:30):
Yeah, I mean until the late nineties, early two thousands,
but all these other big characters. You know, John Candy
was known for his comedy, and so the nineties was
really big for comedy movies, and this is one of
those that's on the pillars of what you think about
nineties comedies. So, yeah, Lighting your it's a candle, all right, well,
I have a cast candle Supernatural next, which coincidentally has

(48:53):
already come out, so it's in the past. Oh time
travel in the past, and she's going to go pray
to cast yell and hope that the devil Baby comes
out nice and everything. So we we finished up season twelve.
