Speaker 1 (00:06):
Come one and all to the following segment of enjoyment
and an escape from reality. But beware the show you
are about to bear witness to will not hold back
when it comes to spoilers, language, and things not appropriate
for work or children. If you continue on, we hope
that you laugh at the banter, that you are thrilled
by the topic of discussion, and marvel at the host's

(00:28):
dedication to their craft, because you can only get that
type of treatment here at Monster Madness.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
You have been warned.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
So at midnight you have to play a game.

Speaker 4 (00:44):
It's just something we do when someone new joins the family.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
A game.

Speaker 4 (00:48):
Yeah what game, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
You draw a card, could be backcammon, croquet checkers, for
all I know.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
I know it's stupid, it's a little weird.

Speaker 3 (01:02):
Why exactly, I guess because we made our money in games.
It's part of the initiation.

Speaker 4 (01:08):
Do I have to win?

Speaker 3 (01:09):
No, you just have to play and then and then
you are officially part of the family.

Speaker 4 (01:17):
Honestly, it means more of them than the wedding itself.
That's it. Yeah, that's it. I know, it's ridiculous. It's
just a weird family ritual and we.

Speaker 5 (01:26):
Only have to do it once, all right, Okay, yeah, okay,
if it gets your family to accept me, I don't
play the shit out o checkers.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
I'm really good on that. Hi, Hello, and welcome to
this week's episode of Monster Madness, a podcast dedicated to
all sorts of creatures, features and beyond. I'm Erica and
joined with me is a man who would totally murder
me in a game of hide and seek. My faithful
co host, Matthew.

Speaker 4 (02:01):
I've been waiting for you to ask me to play
hide and seek just so I can murder you. That's awful,
awfully funny.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
True. When's the last time you think you played hide
and seek?

Speaker 4 (02:12):
And?

Speaker 2 (02:12):
Please God, don't make a dick joke?

Speaker 4 (02:14):
Fuck?

Speaker 2 (02:14):
I was I know, I know.

Speaker 4 (02:18):
For the record, I was gonna say, I play hide
and Seek with my dick every day, but fucked well?
Traditional hide and go seek or a variation of how
is there.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
A variation of hide and go seek?

Speaker 4 (02:34):
So in high school, one of our teachers came up
with this game. I can't remember exactly what it was called,
but so our high school's big. It wasn't it wasn't.
Who's in my mouth? Our high school is a big square,
so they would turn the lights off and then.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
What that was good to my mouth? I'm sorry, I'm
still there.

Speaker 4 (03:01):
Let me try this again, Dick. Our high school was
a big square, and then we had these desks that
had like little shelves underneath them. So what he would
do is we would have like a lock in traditionally
once a year, and then there'd be two teams. There's
the hunters, the predators and the prey. The predators had
like big mag lights, like white flashlights, and then the

(03:24):
prey had red lit flashlights, and they would have to
go into the rooms. So like the hallways were safe,
classrooms weren't, so you could get tagged in a classroom,
but you'd have to go into the rooms and find
these pipes that were padlocked underneath desks, and then you'd
have to read the combination off of the little PVC
pipe that was also written in a shade of red

(03:44):
with a red flashlight and score points. But so it's
like a variation of hide and go seek.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
Wow, that's like intense.

Speaker 4 (03:53):
It was fucking so much fun.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
Well, there you go. That's all that Maggs, is that
you had a good time. I'm still on the first joke.
I'm still laughing about that. It was just so dry
and so quick, like it took a second for it
to register in my brain, and it's just it was delicious.
It was so good. Yeah, I have no idea when
the last time I played Hide and Seek was, but
the first thing that popped into my brain was it

(04:17):
wasn't even hide and Seek. It was, uh, fucking like
Cops and Robbers. When I was like in college, we
went to this playground and got drunk and we all
accidentally ran through like fucking thick ass spiderwebs, and it
was one of my worst nightmares. I was just like encased.
And my friend used to call me Forrest Gump after

(04:39):
that because I jetted out of the wooded area that
we were in so quickly. She's like, all we saw
was your legs going. I was like, yeah, because I
was fucking terrified and I wanted to get into light
so I could see if there was any iraknids on me.
Fuck that man, anyway. You can find monster maness on
all your favorite podcasts, platform social media sites, and things

(05:01):
of that nature. Matt does stream video games and drum
sessions from time to time, so you could check that
out on our Twitch channel, especially in the colder months.
Now that it's cold, Matt has no life, so it's
gonna be gaming.

Speaker 4 (05:14):
You're not wrong, and it's spooky months.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
It's spooky months. Can't get you can't go wrong with
spooky months. Do you have any plans to do any
type of spooky event spooky cocaine?

Speaker 4 (05:26):
I mean this comes out like in the shape before.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
Cocaine, in the shape.

Speaker 4 (05:33):
Of a ghost. I mean this comes out like ten
days before Halloween. So yes, a lot of it will
have passed. But I mean I have been playing on
Friday nights with Glitter and her husband and Bill. We played.
I didn't stream it, kind of wish I would have,
but we played a back rooms escape together. Talk about

(05:56):
a goddamn heart palpitating game.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
Really like you're not doing a bit.

Speaker 4 (06:03):
No, absolutely not, wouldn't. So we we played Sunday night
because I remember we got I think it was ten
thirty my time, so I mean eleven thirty for them.
But we got to like the second to last level
and we all collected. We were like, look, I'm tired
and my heart can't handle this shit anymore because the
level that you did before it's pitch black and you

(06:26):
have a camera and you just like screen you take
you take like a stamp shot and it creates like
a dot matrix of the room in front of you.
And they're shit like trying to kill you this whole time,
and you're following colored lines to push buttons to open doors,
and it's just all jump scares. So there's this big
slender man looking motherfucker who if he gets you, you

(06:48):
you just hear like this like technology screeching sound, and
then your screen just goes to like a like a
reboot looking thing and then you can just go to
back into it, but it clears everything that you've seen,
That's what I'm saying. So it was like we were
doing that, Like we play with proximity chat in the game,
so we mute discord, so it's like if no one's
around you, you can't see what the fuck is going on.
Like you can whistle in the game and that's about it.

(07:10):
But like, yeah it dude' it's it's the game looks incredible,
Like graphics wise, it looks fucking insane. What sucks as
we got to the water level, So if you've ever
seen like a back rooms video about how something looks
super realistic and it's all water and pools and tubes
and shit. That's the level that we got to. So
it has like really great water physics and shit.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
Oh okay cool.

Speaker 4 (07:30):
For seven dollars.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
The game was what was the name of that game again.

Speaker 4 (07:36):
Back Rooms Escape Together. It's the only, from what we understood,
the only multiplayer back rooms game.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
Oh, six thirty nine.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
Yeah, it's on sale right now.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
I think I need to get a steam Deck full
press i can play the games. Yeah, anyway, Oh good?

Speaker 4 (07:57):
Are you? Are you on the Steam page? The uh?

Speaker 2 (08:00):
I just like googled it and I was looking at
I was I just googled it and literally I just
saw that said twenty save twenty percent on back Rooms
Escape Together six thirty nine. I didn't click it yet.

Speaker 4 (08:12):
Yeah, yeah, so if you, if you do go to
the steam page. The second video on it is that
level that I was talking about, and then the fourth
picture is the water one.

Speaker 2 (08:23):
Oh. I've seen this on Instagram on monsters Instagram. I've
seen people playing this. No, I'm such a post post
that I don't know if I could do it, but
I do want a steam Deck so I can play
these games and attempt.

Speaker 4 (08:36):
Well, I'm okay doing it with other people, like I
wouldn't play the Ship by myself. No, that's horrifying.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
The terror is only good together, but anyway better together. Yeah, sorry, Noah,
you're good. Keep talking. You don't talk enough, sir.

Speaker 4 (08:52):
Right, that's all.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
That's really all I got, all right?

Speaker 4 (08:57):
Sorry?

Speaker 2 (08:58):
Uh. If you like this for the show, you could
do so in so many different ways, such as Patreon, boy, merch,

your podcast provider. Those five stars go a long way.
And if you decide to write something, we will read
it on the show. All links for the Aforemen things
will be posted in our show notes. Matt, you got
anything else? You got anything else? What's the scuttle butt?

Speaker 4 (09:20):
The fuck?

Speaker 2 (09:21):
You've never heard? You've heard that? It's you've heard that.
It's in the office. The water cooler was moved here
for maintenance. So what's going on? What do you hear?
What's the scuttle butt?

Speaker 4 (09:33):
I'm trying to figure out what a scuttlebut actually is.
It's a scuttle butt is a cask or drinking fountain
on a ship that holds fresh water for a day's use.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
There you go.

Speaker 4 (09:42):
That word doesn't work here.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
Pod too bad because that takes the.

Speaker 4 (09:46):
Second definition rumor or gossip?

Speaker 2 (09:48):
Yeah fuck you?

Speaker 4 (09:50):
How does it mean too? So completely different things?

Speaker 2 (09:53):
Cauz English is weird. I'm very complicated, that's true.

Speaker 4 (09:58):
I mean I got no scuttle but.

Speaker 2 (10:05):
Sorry, all right? Then this week on Monster Man as
we cover twenty nineteen's ready or not?

Speaker 4 (10:16):
Oh fuck? I really I thought it was safe.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
But if I didn't pull a card at all, then.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
Your crazy family wouldn't be trying to Oh my god, they're.

Speaker 6 (10:24):
Gonna kill me.

Speaker 3 (10:24):
Then we'd both be dead. When you marry into this family,
you have to play a game, and if you don't,
you die.

Speaker 4 (10:30):
I know that sounds crazy, but you have to believe me.

Speaker 6 (10:32):
It is real.

Speaker 3 (10:35):
It happened to my great uncle. He got married, he
didn't play a game. Next morning he died his wife too.
Same thing happened to my cousin Rachel. The same thing
happened to a bunch of people that I never met before.

Speaker 4 (10:43):
You just you have to play.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
You said your family would fucked up.

Speaker 5 (10:54):
You did say psycho killers, you brought me.

Speaker 4 (11:02):
You wanted to get married. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. No, no, no,
there are rules. You can't just elope you. You have
to have the wedding here, and you have to play
the fucking game. You didn't even fucking talk to me.
You could have told me, we could have just if

(11:23):
I told you, you.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
Would have left.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
Ready or Not is a R rated film and it
runs for one hour and thirty five minutes. It was
released in the United States on August twenty first, twenty nineteen.
It was directed by Tyler Gillett and Matt ben To
Nelly Opland, Sorry man if I butchered that. It was
written by Guy Busick and our Christopher Murphy. It stars

(11:50):
Samaraw Weaving, Adam Brody, Mark O'Brien, Henry Zerney, Andy McDowell,
Melanie Grafano, Chris Brun, Elise le Vescua or whatever. I
don't know a lot of weird fucking names in this one.
I only know knew two actors, three actors. Three uh.

(12:11):
It was produced by Fox Searchlight Pictures, Mythology Entertainment, Vincent Films,
TSG Entertainment, and distributed by Twentieth Century Fox and Fox
Searchlight Pictures. Special effects were done by Area one FX
and Deluxe VFX Toronto some taglines for the film. The

(12:32):
game begins a killer game of hide and seek. They're
coming in laws can be murdered. Eh. I didn't like
any of them. The game begins as okay, but eh,
even that stretching, I give it a solid see just

(12:53):
to see nac plus nasty minus.

Speaker 4 (12:55):
It's like they just kind of threw darts at a
board and we're like, this will do.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
Yeah, Like they're coming, Like what fucking what?

Speaker 4 (13:02):
Yeah? I mean, no one really knows based on the
name of the movie that it is a hide and
Seek premise. You know what I'm saying, Like, if I'm
sure if you watch the trailer, yes, if you if
you just look at the poster, it just says ready
or not, you're not gonna put that together. So then
you pair it with these half assed, fucking taglines. It
really doesn't help describe the movie what's on.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
I will be honest. I kind of had an AHA
moment while watching where I realized why the title of
the movie was ready or Not. I was like, Oh,
they're playing hide and Seek right here?

Speaker 4 (13:31):
Come.

Speaker 2 (13:33):
I have little moments like that throughout my life, like
Chips a Hoy chips a hoy. I I had an
epiphany one day where I finally.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
Got that I here by, I hereby resign from this
show forever.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
Some things just don't click. Like the Beatles. I didn't
get it. I didn't get the Bea for a long time.
I was just like, maybe they just changed the spelling,
oh beat in a song the Beatles. I get it now,
fucking dumb.

Speaker 4 (14:00):
Ass, I've definitely done it. I can't think of anything
specific right now, so you're currently still an idiot.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
That's fine.

Speaker 4 (14:12):
Now I know for certain that I have done shit.

Speaker 2 (14:15):
Like the Beatles and chips ahoy was like fifteen years ago,
so not in my thirties. Was I like, oh.

Speaker 4 (14:23):
Yeah, no, I think the Beatles thing probably clicked with
me about twenty fifteen, twenty years ago too, like I
would have been a teenager maybe late teens. So you
made it sound like these were like in the past
month you had these realizations. Yeah, you're The last.

Speaker 2 (14:37):
Three days have been wild with realizations. Chips ahoy, the
Beatles ready 'or not? Here? I come? What the fuck?
I don't know anything that's happening. What is going on?
What's the budget?

Speaker 4 (14:49):
Six million dollars? And the Grouse fifty seven point six million.
Oh damn, am I remember this movie being pretty fucking
popular when it came out, popular enough that they keep
talking about doing the second one.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
Fucking should But how do you.

Speaker 4 (15:04):
Make a second one? Everyone's dead except unless.

Speaker 2 (15:07):
You go back to like the original deal.

Speaker 4 (15:09):
It would have to be a prequel.

Speaker 2 (15:11):
But let's not spoil too much. Got to read that plot.

Speaker 4 (15:14):
Matt, Oh, I don't know how to read.

Speaker 2 (15:16):
Well. We've established that numerous times. Pick your poison this
or trap.

Speaker 4 (15:21):
I'll do this just because trap. I'm gonna want to
yell a lot about switch che don't get me started.
As a child, Daniel Ledomas is confronted in his family's
mansion by Charles, a wounded man who begs him for help. Instead,
Daniel alerts his family, who arrive in ceremonial masks and robes.
Despite his bride Helen's please, Charles is shot with a

(15:43):
spear gun and dragged away into a locked room. Thirty
years later, Daniel's brother, Alex, the estranged son of the
owners of the successful Ledomas family games company, is set
to marry Grace, a former foster child. On Alex and
Grace's wedding day, she meets with the Lodomases, Daniel and
his wife Charity, Alex's cocaine ad did sister Emily, her
husband Fitch, and their young sons Georgie and Gate. After

(16:04):
the ceremony, Tony explains that his ancestor, Victor Lodomos, made
a deal with someone named La Bail to build the
Lodoma's fortune in exchange for the family observing a tradition.
At midnight on their wedding day, every new member draws
a game card from the La Baale's puzzle box. Grace
draws Hide and Seek, believing it to be harmless game.
Grace goes to hide herself in. The Lodomoses each receive

(16:24):
a weapon. Alex finds Grace, who witnesses Emily accidentally kill
a maid who she mistakes for Grace. Alex reveals that
his family's cursed. If the new member draws the hide
and Seek card, the rest of the family has to
find and ritually sacrifice them before dawn, or they die instead.
The game was last played by Helen's husband Charles. With
the mansion lockdown, Alex disables a security system to allow
Grace to escape. She's discovered by Daniel, who is disillusioned

(16:46):
with his family and gives her a head start before
alerting the others and the chaos, Emily accidentally kills another mate.
Grace's escape is blocked by the family butler Stevens. She
in turn splatters the hot tea he was preparing on
his face and runs away. Alc is restrained by Daniel
and Tony after he attacks the latter. Grace is seen
by a third maid, who accidentally crushes herself in a

(17:06):
dumbwaiter while yelling for the family. Grace runs to the
goat shed, where Georgie shoots her in the hand. She
knocks him out, but is startled by a goat and
falls into a pit filled with corpses of the Ladomus'
previous sacrifices, including that of Charles. She escapes and makes
it through the front gate. Grace is pursued into the
forest by Stevens. She fights Stevens off, but is eventually
captured by him. As he is driving Grace back to

(17:28):
the house, she awakens and attacks Stevens, causing the car
to crash and kill him. Daniel, nearby the crash captures
Grace after realizing that his father is secretly watching the
Ladomas is prepared to complete the ritual sacrifice. However, they
are incapacitated after Daniel poison them with a non lethal
dose of hydrochloric acid in the ritual cup. Charity shoots
Daniel in the neck after he attempts to protect Grace,

(17:49):
leaving him to bleed to death. As Grace runs away.
The ongoing chaos, the mansion is set on fire. Grace
is attacked by Becky, whom she beats to death with
Labille's box. Alex escapes his restrains goes to find Grace,
but has witnessed her attacking his mother. Grace pulls away
from Alex, who, after realizing that she will never trust
him and will almost certainly leave him once she escapes,
subdues her to complete the ritual. Grace breaks free from

(18:12):
the ritual table just to the sun rises. Despite Grace
having won the game, Helen attempts to attack her anyway,
but explodes midstride a consequence of the curse. The rest
of the family explode one by one, leaving only Alex,
who tries to convince Grace to forgive him. She refuses
and tosses her ring back to Claire and she wants
a divorce. Alex thence that comes to the curse and explodes.
La Bail briefly shows himself to Grace and nods in approval.

(18:35):
Sole survivor of the night, Grace walks out of the
burning manner just as the police arrive. Upon asking her
what happened, she simply replies in lass, which was a
good fucking way to add that movie.

Speaker 2 (18:45):
In my opinion, it's perfect. I have zero notes for
this film. I loved everything about it. I had never
seen it before. It was a perfect balance of a
really solid story peppered in with humor, very dry in
black humor, and like a little bit of like gour
that made you uncomfortable, like the nail goes, like her

(19:06):
getting shot through the hand and then putting her hand
through the nail by accident to get out of the
pit of the dead bodies. That skewed me out. So
I was like, it was like a perfect blend of
just like every horror aspect that you want in a
horror comedy without being cheesy. And I loved the concept.

(19:29):
The only thing I probably would say that I wished
that when they went around the table and they're like,
you know, I had I had to play old Maid,
I had to play this. Well, all of these people
that married into the family were really shitty people, and
they believed in this whole concept that if they did
not partake in this ceremony, that they were all going

(19:51):
to die, the money was going to disappear, YadA, YadA, YadA.
I feel like it would have been a better concept
if each card, like each game, had some sort of consequence,
like not necessarily, oh, we have to kill the bride
or the groom, whoever's marrying into the family, but like
you know something or other. Because my I go into

(20:15):
everything blind. I don't like reading synopsis. I don't like
watching trailers for the most part anymore, unless like I'm
in the movies or something. I like to go and blind.
So when I was starting to watch this, I was like, Okay,
so I think that I'm assuming they're gonna play hide
and seek, but they're not gonna want to have to
kill her because they want to add more people into

(20:37):
the family. And obviously, as time went on, I realized
that wasn't the case. I thought like, maybe she would
have to like kill some random person, and that's how
they initiate her into the family, and that's how they
initiate everybody into the family, like, oh, you play goldfish,
you know you gotta kill a bunch of I don't
fucking know some concept where something horrible happens, I initiate

(20:59):
initiates you into this horrible family of Satanists. But their
concept was like, oh no, if you we play hide
and seek, then the spouse marrying in has to die.
The second I saw her rip her wedding dress to
expose her chucks, I was like, everybody's dying except her.
Everybody's fucking dying. The second I saw that, I was like, yeah,

(21:20):
she's final girl status. Like I already knew that she
was going to be a final girl because number one,
that was really really fucking stupid if she died midway
through the movie. But also I've seen her in like
lists of like, oh the most iconic final girls, Sidney Prescott,
Lauren Levera, fucking this chick, I don't know her name

(21:42):
at the time, and I in that chick.

Speaker 4 (21:49):
Let's all go to the lobby.

Speaker 1 (21:52):
Let's all go to the lobby.

Speaker 4 (21:54):
Let's all go to the lobby to get ourselves a
treat Tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
No. No, in the movie, what is her name?

Speaker 4 (22:02):
Grace Grace Edith Grace No last.

Speaker 2 (22:06):
Name, Well, it would have been Grace, will have been
lep or whatever, La Domas, whatever it was. I think
I just said an artist name. Yeah, Marcel dou Champ.
Oh boy, he's one of my favorite artists. Learn something
new every day.

Speaker 4 (22:23):
Yeah, that's uh okay.

Speaker 2 (22:26):
He was like a weird He did Dadaism, which is
like just basically whatever you say is art type things.
Marcel Marcel Duchamp. It's spelled. Do you see like there's
one of a like a urinal but that says uh
mutt on the side of it, like RM mutt or something.

Speaker 4 (22:46):
Yeah, r mutt.

Speaker 2 (22:48):
Yeah. He has one of my favorite paintings though.

Speaker 4 (22:50):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
If you type in nude descending a staircase, that's my
favorite painting of all time.

Speaker 4 (22:56):
Uh you forgot the end number two, nineteen twelve. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
I've had the pleasure of seeing it in person once
and I cried, kid, listen, Linda.

Speaker 4 (23:08):
You had to have seen that coming.

Speaker 2 (23:10):
I know, I knew that there was going to be mockery,
but you know, sometimes I would hope you'd be like,
you know, whatever, cause that's fucking beautiful. I'm happy for you,
but I know that's never going to happen.

Speaker 4 (23:22):
I thought about redeeming you, and then I gave up.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
He does have an interesting exhibit in the Philadelphia Art
Museum that I always make people go and look at
because it always like surprises them. He has basically like
a whole room in the Modern Art section in Philadelphia.
You go into this little room and there's like a
peep hole in this blacked out room, and you look
through it and it's literally a naked chick just laying
with full bush in on it like a hill.

Speaker 4 (23:48):
Let's talk about this bush.

Speaker 2 (23:50):
It's very flufy if you're into that sort of thing.

Speaker 4 (23:52):
Fluffer involved or just natural bush.

Speaker 2 (23:56):
She definitely used like a tweaker.

Speaker 4 (23:58):
For the hair, a fucking one of those tyeh.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
There it is teaser. That's what I was trying to
fucking think of.

Speaker 4 (24:03):
Thank you, Jesus christ ah Man. Sometimes even make myself
uncomfortable with the things that I say.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
Tell me about how you felt about the movie.

Speaker 4 (24:15):
That was real good. I liked it. It brought smiles,
like you said, though there weren't really any notes. I mean,
it's pretty cut and dry. It is what it is.
What happens happens. There's some fun parts, a couple handful
of funny parts.

Speaker 2 (24:30):
Oh a lot. The dad was great, the dad constantly
flipping out like for the center of gravity, and the
sister literally killing fucking everybody by accident.

Speaker 4 (24:41):
Well, and that's like. The dad overreacting wasn't as funny
to me as the sister accidentally killing everyone was.

Speaker 2 (24:48):
That was good.

Speaker 4 (24:48):
So like, to me, this is closer to horror than comedy,
which I'm okay with. But still it's super fucking enjoyable.
I liked it enough that I on occasion try to
pay it me for a seat or a second. I
shouldn't say a sequel, but.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
I like, again, it would just be a prequel because
I'm like me and Brooke talked about it at the
end of like that movie, and the first thing I
said to her I was like, well, la bail, La
bail gave her that nod. The devil was just like, hey,
you win.

Speaker 4 (25:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
Does that mean that she inherits all of that fortune
because she's the next of kin technically by law?

Speaker 4 (25:27):
Yeah, So they're saying the second one could be the
series of events that happened afterwards, because he's dead, she
couldn't get a divorce. Therefore, she's linked to the Loadomas family.
So this sequel could exist with her as where she
has to start the game back over.

Speaker 2 (25:45):
Somehow, Yeah, somehow, But she's going to just start a franchise. Yeah,
I mean you would assume that from the little breadcrumbs
that they leave you is that she basically has no
family and no friends. She literally was at that and
it was entirely at his family's house. His people, they

(26:06):
all left and it was all his family there, you know,
So I'm like, she didn't, like, she didn't have her
mom and dad hanging out till midnight's play. Hide and
Seek could just.

Speaker 4 (26:15):
Be fucking ninety minutes of her like dealing with paperwork,
going to like court to try to get the money,
oh god, cleaning up a burnt mansion.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
As someone who's been to court a few times at
this point, it's that that would be a horror movie
in and of itself, And I gotta go fuck again.

Speaker 4 (26:32):
But if you're listening to this, we're gonna start a
GoFundMe for Eric gonna sue her neighbor.

Speaker 2 (26:38):
Okay, I don't think I told this story on air,
and I will now because what the fuck not was
it going to do? It's gonna hurt me. This bitch
hired I fucket her husband's friend's tree company to cut
down true trees in her backyard. Not a big deal.
She's moving like six hours away, mozle top. Her husband's

(26:58):
a fucking creep who blaares techno while he plays Xbox
and gets stoned where every single neighbor.

Speaker 4 (27:08):
He hey, hegy, ask me if he's looking for some friends,
and there's nothing.

Speaker 2 (27:10):
Wrong with that. Trust me, I will show you a
picture of him.

Speaker 4 (27:14):
I didn't say there's anything wrong with it or not
wrong with it. I just want to know if he
wants a new friend.

Speaker 2 (27:18):
You deserve beggar friends. Yeah. So they're the best neighbors ever,
and every single person on this block has called the
cops on him because of how fucking he would blare
his music so loud like my windows, my front windows
would shake. And he lives on the other side of
the street, like behind my house. So she gets these
two trees cut down, and they the last tree. Of course,

(27:42):
a rope snaps and it whips back, breaks a piece
of my fence and a greenhouse that I had installed
in my backyard that I used to have herbs in
and stuff like that that I was literally about to
prep to do my herbs and like my fruit bushes
that I wanted to art this year. And it completely
shaggered the fucking fucking earth thane plastic poly shit that

(28:07):
fucking is completely shaggered. It broke the metal frame. I
talked to the owner of the company. He was like, Okay,
we'll buy you a new one. I was like, perfect,
they don't make the one that I want anymore from
the company that I, you know, always use. So I
was like, listen, they don't make it anymore. Like, let's

(28:28):
just agree on a price and I'll just buy one
later down the line when I do some research. I'm
not gonna pick one out right the second and like
he literally just kept sending me like Walmart versions that
were like one hundred dollars. I was like, bitch, this
thing was like six seven hundred dollars. Like no, And
you know, I get into an argument with her about it.
She refuses to use her homeowner's insurance, YadA, YadA, YadA. Basically,

(28:51):
now I gotta take this bitch to small claims to
get what my insurance says is almost one thousand dollars
worth of damage because she also broke my friends. But
she doesn't think I'm gonna do anything. So by the
time this comes out, it will be filed. So so
as you can tell, we yay this movie. We yay
the shit out of this movie. Insert fun little yay sound.

(29:16):
It's great watch it, and now we're gonna move on
to some monster minutias. Seventeen different versions of Grace's wedding
dress were created by costume designer Avery Plus to show
the progress of Grace's night and how her clothes correspond
to her attitude. Samorrow Weaving, who plays Grace, had to

(29:37):
be taught how to drive, or at least how to
look like she was driving. You know how old were
you when you got your life?

Speaker 4 (29:44):
Sixteen?

Speaker 2 (29:45):
Wow, I can't imagine.

Speaker 4 (29:49):
I lost it by the age of seventeen, though, And.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
Then when did you get it back?

Speaker 4 (29:56):
Eighteen?

Speaker 2 (29:56):
There you go, So let's just go with eighteen. I
was twenty four when I got my license. I think
you knew that, though, what Yeah, I was.

Speaker 4 (30:05):
Twenty four, you probably told me.

Speaker 2 (30:09):
But well, here's the thing. We lived and grew up
in two completely different types of areas. You needed a
car to get everywhere. I lived in Northeast Philadelphia, where
you could walk, take a bus, take a train, you
did not need a car. I moved to the suburbs,
I was like, I need a fucking car. So when
I moved out here, I was like, all right, I

(30:30):
guess I'll get my license. And it's been a downhill
hill turn ever since.

Speaker 4 (30:36):
I mean, think about Oh, I mean some of some
of our New York friends they don't have there. They
don't drive much, yeah, if at all, because they don't
have to. So yeah, it's that makes sense. Yeah, Like
I have a friend of mine who is literally two
weeks younger than me, does not have his driver's license.

Speaker 2 (30:55):
Yeah, I know a forty some year old dude who
doesn't have his license because he's like, what do I know?

Speaker 4 (31:00):
I mean, but he lives He lives in Green Bay,
so it's not like he lives in New York. Like
he grew up in Shpoilon known him since high school.

Speaker 2 (31:09):
Why doesn't he have one?

Speaker 4 (31:09):
She never got a driver's license. I think he took
a car for a joy ride and got in a
bad accident before he ever got a license and then
just decided never to get one.

Speaker 2 (31:18):
Okay, how does he get places? Like his job?

Speaker 4 (31:22):
Uber, So he's a chef at Lambeau, so he lives
like not far from Lambeo. He will walk most of
the time too. But you know, if it works for
a while, he was he just he he didn't. I
don't know if he if he works for Lambo yet
or not, if he works for the company, the catering company.

(31:43):
But like he did when the Bills had their last
playoff game, he was out there for that. He opened
up like the football stadium in Atlanta. There's a couple
of soccer stadiums, like, he can just go wherever the
company is called, Delaware North and anywhere that that company
vends food. If he wants to go work that stadium,
he can, as long as he doesn't have anything to
do here. Oh, it's actually pretty fucking cool, y cool.

(32:06):
So you like spent a summer in Minneapolis working for
the Twins.

Speaker 2 (32:09):
Oh that's fun. Yeah, no complaints there. Grace originally dies
in the earlier draft of the script after being successfully
sacrificed by Alex and his family, but the producers changed
it to Grace surviving, and her in laws, including Alex,
being killed after failing to complete the ritual for Down.
I did love the notion at first that they were like, okay,

(32:34):
it's down. We didn't get it didn't happen. Wow, this
whole family was built on a lie, this whole ritual.
You know, Helene is heartbroken and still like, you know,
pledging her life to Satan because she was the bitch
that lost her husband. In the very first second of
the movie, everybody's like, Okay, we're good, we're not gonna

(32:58):
die nothing, but it's gonna happen, and then they literally
all start exploding. I love the hilarity of that, where
you have a solid two minutes where you think everything
was bullshit and it's like, no, no, we're all gonna
literally explode. Now. I love that. The montage of the
family preparing and donning their robes in the league up
to sacrificing Grace originally showed Daniel drinking more, but Brody

(33:21):
wisely suggested a take where he goes the opposite direction
and is clearly sobering up. Instead. The nail that goes
through Grace's hand is cg and they were worried about
selling it. They were worried about selling it until they
watched some Horrs Tomorrow Weaving's performance, so they were concerned
that it would be looking that gave me the squeaggly iglyes,

(33:42):
so she did good job. During the wedding photos, Charity
tells Daniel that Grace will never be a part of
the family. Daniel replies, of course not, she has a soul.
At the time, this seems like a slight against his
wife and family. Lager is revealed that the members of
the family have sold their souls to mister lab Bait.
The goat that jumps out and scares Grace into falling

(34:04):
down the well was originally planned as a puppet, but
when they shot the first take of the puppet, they
realized that this was a bad idea. It is heavily
implied that Grace is rejected by mister la Bail for
two reasons. Because one because her motive for marrying Alex
was indeed love and notxious money, Grace's soul would be
more difficult to obtain. It's also mentioned that both Charity

(34:26):
and Fitch had no issue selling their souls in exchange
for the material, whereas Grace no longer Grace only longed
for a family. And two. Helene draws comparison between herself
and Alex, both resisting their destiny by trying to leave
the family, only for mister la Bail to reject their
spouse as forcing them to stay, and that, my friends

(34:47):
are some minutias. I think that'll do. I like that
one to end on because everything else kind of oh
oh no, there is one that I like. It says
Grace will likely inherit all of the les doma uszz Well,
I was right, yeah, I'm gonna end on that one,
and on that one because we were having a full

(35:08):
blown conversation about that. She's like, well, what happens to
that house? What happened? Well, it was burning down, But like,
what happens to all that money? I was like, I
don't know. I would assume she would get it because
they were weakally married and everyone in that fucking family
just exploded in front of her, But how do you
explain that to a cop? Like, listen, my whole family,
my whole new family just tried to murder me in

(35:30):
a game of hide and seek, but the devil exploded
them and their house is burning down now. But if
she's one with the devil, devil will work it out.

Speaker 4 (35:40):
You're thinking a little too much about this.

Speaker 2 (35:45):
Well, someone's got to use brain cells in this show.

Speaker 4 (35:48):
Well, sometimes you just gotta suspend belief and just fucking
go with I made that mistake last night because we
saw a mystery movie.

Speaker 2 (35:57):
Oh what was it? What was it?

Speaker 4 (36:01):
My old Ass? It was called My Old Ass.

Speaker 2 (36:07):
Oh that's what it was called. I thought you were
about to tell a story.

Speaker 4 (36:13):
Yep. Eighteenth birthday Mushroom Trip brings Elliott face to face
with her wise cracking, thirty nine year old self. When
the older Elliot starts handing out warnings about what her
younger self should and shouldn't do, she realizes she has
to rethink everything about family, love and what's becoming a
transformative summer.

Speaker 2 (36:29):
Did you say the whole movie?

Speaker 4 (36:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (36:33):
It was only five bucks?

Speaker 4 (36:34):
Yeah right, well ten, it was less than fifteen dollars
for both of us. It had Aubrey Plaza in it,
so I got mildly excited about that. But like, the
fucking acting was so bad. There's plot holes because time.

(37:01):
So that we walked out and I said, I said,
I know two things about the person who wrote this
movie is they've never done mushrooms and they do not
understand time travel because they ate mushrooms. And then they
were like full blown hallucinating, Like at one point she's
justin Bieber and singing a song which fucking pissed me
off on my phone with that. She's a singer too,
so that's probably why she's sang in the movie. And

(37:23):
if if this time travel thing was a reality, then
she would have remembered, she would know it, like she
would remember having done this when she was a kid,
so she should be able to read like pre answer everything,
and they shouldn't, you know, like stuff like that. But
then at the end of it, I was just like,
I'm thinking way too fucking.

Speaker 2 (37:40):
Hard about this, like the Butterfly Effect. I want to
watch it, but.

Speaker 4 (37:44):
Basically it's out. But that's this girl who wants to
She's claims she's super fucking gay, but then meets this
boy and she's not supposed to fall in love with
the boy because I'm gonna ruin this for everybody, and
I don't care never, I never, I never heard of it.
But she finds out that she's not supposed to fall
in love with this boy because he dies and future

(38:06):
Elliott doesn't want young Elliott to have to go through
the heartache. And then at the end they're like, you
you just go love chat, you fucking love chat, and
you just be happy that you're loving Chad. I was like,
I hope I die right now.

Speaker 2 (38:20):
How many people are in the theater?

Speaker 4 (38:21):
So it was a good amount, like probably thirty, but
it was in like the super screen, so it looked
pretty fucking empty, but there was like a good three
and a half ros we full.

Speaker 2 (38:34):
I wonder if this is like a ploy for just
like really awful movies to get some money.

Speaker 4 (38:40):
It's just all they tell you is the rating, the time,
and that it's not out, so that movie doesn't come
out till Friday.

Speaker 2 (38:47):
No I know, but like I think, like maybe it's
we know this movie is not gonna fucking break even,
So what if we do these things where we sneak
people into paying money to see a movie that they
would not ever fall can see ever in the life.

Speaker 4 (39:02):
And the the other weird thing is if you go
look at that movie theater, they don't have play times
for this until the twenty sixth, so two weeks after
the movie comes out is when they're finally gonna start
showing it there. Yeah, so I said I would. So
the next one that they're doing is it's straight upset,
it's not horror. I was like, so in October, if
it says it's a horror movie, I would do it. Yeah,
because at the very least, and when we walked out

(39:25):
all this, I was like, I did not prepare myself
for the fact that it was gonna be a fucking
rom com. Yeah. I didn't think about that at all.
That they make rated our rom coms too, so and
it was rated R because they swore a bunch and
there was a bunch of really unnecessary sex scenes.

Speaker 2 (39:39):
Why do you say sex scenes with air quotes.

Speaker 4 (39:43):
Because it's all implied. Oh, just like she's making out
with a girl and then all of a sudden it
fast forwards, and then they're laying naked in a boat
and her brother finds her, and then later on she
focks Chad and she said, oh, we had sex, but
they're just making out in the cameras. So yeah, implied sex.

Speaker 2 (39:59):
But I love to see it, I guess, or don't
I guess that doesn't fuck?

Speaker 4 (40:04):
No, no, And I tried really hard to like enjoy
something about it, just to not be pooh pooh. But oh,
Margot Robbie was one of the producers on it. Yeah,
I knew I was fucked when it's when the first
like production company thing was Indian Paintbrush. I'm like, well,

(40:25):
I've never heard of that. This can't be good. Then
it was Amazon.

Speaker 2 (40:28):
MGM, that can't be real.

Speaker 4 (40:32):
Yeah, and then it's just in the same letters, this
is my old ass. I'm like, maybe it's like a
weird comedy movie about getting old.

Speaker 2 (40:39):
Maybe Nope, you got anything that fucks To kind of
end it on a positive note.

Speaker 4 (40:45):
The Massala laised chips are pretty fucking terrific. The Oreo
the coke flavored oreos are pretty good. Like my complaint
is that it tastes the cream t like coke syrup.
But also I have not had a regular coke in long,
so long that it could be perfect. It can taste purple.

Speaker 2 (41:07):
Oh okay, I did see.

Speaker 4 (41:10):
My hands on these zero sugar Oreo flavored coke.

Speaker 2 (41:12):
Yeah, I did. I think I sent you the real
If someone trying it and they're like, fuck, why is
this good?

Speaker 4 (41:18):
Yeah, I'm just I eventually assume it'll show up at
a gas station and I can get a cane. I'm
not paying fucking what was it like twelve dollars for
a ten pack of seven ounce cans from Walmart? Yeah,
that's about it. How about you?

Speaker 2 (41:32):
Uh, it's a low fuckage week. I'm done my iron infusions.
That focks. So I'm fucking Iron Maiden over here, fucking
Iron Woman Tony Stark style.

Speaker 4 (41:47):
Make sure you run to the hills.

Speaker 2 (41:49):
Yep, I'm very magnetic. Yeah, no, I got nothing. I'm
just happy that's done. You know, I haven't tried anything
you food wise, which I really need to get back
on that hobby horse I've been I've been itching to
do something like go to a new restaurant or like
try a new dish, and I just haven't. I did

(42:10):
make enchiladas the other night that fucked. And they're hearty good. Yeah,
it's like americanized and it's not a real fucking enchilada
at all. It's literally a burrito with enchilada sauce on
top of it. Because I'm not. I like, I did
fucking chicken and rice inside. I went to do black beans,

(42:31):
but I didn't have any I thought I did, but
I didn't you know I put so. Basically what I
do is I cook my chicken. Then I either shred
it or I you know, cube it to this time,
I cubed it because I didn't want to fucking wait
to shred it. And then I cook it in with
some salsa. I had some freshjlapinos from my garden and

(42:53):
some cayennes. Chop those bitches up, put them in there,
cook it all. It was very spicy. It was nice. Oh,
I have questions for you. Either which way rice I
cook that up? Put it in the fucking thing, wrapped
it up, put the enchila sauce cheese baked in the
oven for three fifty for like a half hour to
get that cheese all golden brown. It was delicious. It's

(43:15):
basically a brigo. I actually don't even know what really
is inside of an enchilada. But two questions for you.
Number one, do you like buffalo wild?

Speaker 4 (43:25):
That serves the purpose? I don't hate it, but it's
not my go to fine.

Speaker 2 (43:29):
What my second question? What is your wing.

Speaker 1 (43:35):
Rule?

Speaker 4 (43:36):
Like?

Speaker 2 (43:36):
Do you are you like boneless wings are not wings?
Or like are you like bone in like a man?
What is your wing policy?

Speaker 4 (43:48):
Boneless wings are just chicken nuggets. I bone in always
just because.

Speaker 2 (43:52):
I prefer But if someone is like, hey, I only
got boneless, are you passing up the chicken nugs?

Speaker 4 (43:59):
No, probably not, because then it'll be it'll come down
to what sauce is available. Yeah, I mean there's varying.
There's like chicken nuggets are better than no chicken.

Speaker 2 (44:14):
Fair, And I agree that boneless wings are just a
fancy word for chicken nuggets. But I'm we're chicken nugget pro.
We're chicken nuggy pro. I love bone in. I feel
like it is an wildly different flavor and deliciousness. I
have many people in my life, though, that are very

(44:38):
anti bone I know three that I'm very close with,
so more often than not, if there's chicken around, it's boneless.
But either which way, we wound up getting be dubs
this past weekend. Mistakes were made first of all, but

(44:58):
we got the Hot Barbecue you the Blazon, which is
their hottest sauce. Uh, the jammin Jalapeno and spicy garlic.
The spicy garlic, and the jam and gelopino were me.
Those are my picks. She picked Blazon and Hot Barbecue.

(45:20):
Hot Barbecue is great. Spicy garlic was good. Jammin jilapino
was pretty good. It had like like a tekila lime
flavor going on in it. That was pretty, you know, delish.
Then there was that fucking blazon.

Speaker 4 (45:35):
Yeah, I mean I could have told you no, because
I'm not a fucking idiot.

Speaker 2 (45:41):
Well, first of all, go to fucking be doves and
get like a small come on bitch, No why.

Speaker 4 (45:49):
Because blazon blazon exists to hurt that there's nothing about it.

Speaker 2 (45:55):
I she went in her mind's her strade was I'm
going to eat the hottest one first, but you need
to understand. Well here's the thing. Well, you need to
understand what this girl is That she has an ironclad stomach.
She could fucking eat anything and nothing affects her.

Speaker 4 (46:14):
Me.

Speaker 2 (46:14):
I looked at that blaze and wing and I've got
the bubble guts like right by my rib cage. I
was like, oh no, danger, danger, will Robinson. So I
only took I took one of each. I started off slow.
I was like, all right, spicy garlic, hot but manageable.

(46:35):
I could eat a couple of these and be fine.
Hot barbecue surprisingly hot. I was like, all right, that
fucks good jam hopping. It was okay. That blazing fucking
rocked me. It was so fucking hot. I felt my

(46:56):
intestine reacting to the spice. It was horrendous. And mind you,
I have tried the world's Hottest chocolate, and I have
tried a Oh what the fuck is it called? It's
not like a hot sauce. Oh, it's an extract I

(47:17):
have tried at this place in the mall by my house.
It's called Spice World, I believe. And they I tried
their hottest extract and nothing affected my insides the way
that fucking blazoned it. Maybe because I consumed a lot
of it because it was one wing and it had

(47:38):
the sauce on it. I don't know. But the World's
Hottest chocolate I only felt in my mouth. It Literally
the second I put it on my tongue, it felt
like someone shot me in the mouth. It just hurt.
And I did it at work, which was the stupidest idea.
I warned my boss. I was we're friends, and hey, Julie,

(47:58):
if you're listening, Uh, I was like me and this dude,
can are gonna try the world's hottest chocolate. He's like,
it's really fucking hot. I was like, it can't be
that hot, pussy, give it to me. I immediately regretted everything.
I got full body sweats and I had to pace
for fifteen minutes in my office. My office is not big,
and I drank a bunch of mini coffee creamers because

(48:20):
I was like, I have to do something. Walker's making
it worse when I when I did the extra, when
I did the extract, Brooke and I were at the
mall shopping and we go into the Spice World. We're
looking for like, you know, like spicy barbecue sauce, or
like seeing what they have because we like flavor. They
have all of her kinda spices, not just spicy stuff.

(48:43):
And then there's this guy at the checkout who three
seconds into him opening his mouth, I realized that he
must work for Spice World. But he's pretending to be
a customer because he's like, Yo, you gotta try you
gotta try this, you gotta try this. He's like, I
just did it. I'm fine, you can handle it. And
I wasn't gonna do it because a stranger was like, hey,

(49:06):
put this extract in your mouth. But he said something.
He was like, if anything, it creates a memory. He's like,
