Another rendition of SMB a South Parkreview, or we break down on review
south Park for you in linear fashioneach and every week. And sometimes we're
serious, sometimes we're a little sarcastic. And this week the town of south
Park is sarcastic and it's going totake over the world. Is this is
(00:22):
Sarcastic Ball. It is the eighthepisode of season sixteen and the two hundred
and thirty first overall episode of southPark as at first September the twenty sixth,
twenty twelve. Ladies, welcome backto SMB number two hundred and thirty
four. All right, let's getinto it. South Park Elementary takes some
(00:47):
steps this week to address the Iguess the crisis that's happening in the National
Football League, and that being concussions. So the boys, Butters and Randy
are watching a game of football onTV when Stan tells his father a south
Park Elementary does not let them dokickoffs when they're playing football anymore, because
(01:07):
kickoffs are the most dangerous play infootball. This pisses Randy off, so
he goes to the ptaight meeting andthen Randy sarcastically suggests that the players should
just wear bras and tenfold hats thatthere should be a balloon instead of a
ball, and then the person whocatches the balloon can run for the others
player's hug, which he calls sarcasticball, and mister McKie goes, oh,
(01:30):
do you think the children were likethat? Okay, to be a
fair, Matt, have you seenI mean it is. It is the
most brutal play in all of sports. I'm not saying they should take it
out. I'm just saying the kickoffis it's literally two lines of giant humans
sprinting at each other as fast asthey can. Definitely, no, definitely,
definitely rich is funny hair. Ofcourse, Randy beans so sarcastic and
(01:53):
mister McKie taking the suggestions so seriously. And it's at this point now Randy
becomes the head coach of this newssport, the new elementary Sarcasta ball team.
However, the sport is going tobecome quickly popular. It's going to
replace football, and eventually it's gonnathrust Randy into the NFL as the head
coach of the Denver Broncos. Sowe'll jump into some clips here, give
(02:16):
you guys an idea of how thisepisode starts out here as a sarcasta ball
takes over the town. So westart off here with an NFL game,
and so they way they can ofcourse reference the examples of the barbaric nature
that is the NFL kickoff mar Toni'sJackson catches the ball. He's running down
(02:39):
the sideline. Oh ball, didyou see that? Head? Let's get
Randy. He's so stupid. It'sexciting. It's an exciting play. They
designed it just for us Americans.I know, right, did you see
that hurts boom? Jackson stopped atthe forty five and he is flow to
(03:00):
get up. That was a greathead boys. Remember that at practice tomorrow.
Yeah, Jackson took a real shot. And well, I'm not sure
what he's doing now, but itappears as always looking for his keys.
Dan. Yeah, and that doesn'tmake a lot of sense because ever since
his concussion in six you have alicense Coach Martin's coming over to tell him
that now, But Jackson appears tothink he's in a car driving home.
(03:20):
Well, during this time out,we're happy to be joined by the Commissioner
of the NFL, Rodger Goodell,Commissioner a lot of hoopla about concussions this
year in the NFL. How's theleague handling all that? So, of
course this was as they're referred there, and you can hear them alluding too.
This was when the NFL was gettingsome huge pushback on their concussion programs
and whatnot. Former NFL players suingthe NFL eventually did settle on a huge
(03:43):
settlement, but that was of coursedue part to the fact that the NFL
did not help the NFL players whileplaying football and then post football from the
I guess it would be the sixties, seventies all the way up until the
two thousands with any post medical likesymptoms that they were seeing from playing the
NFL. Of course, some playerstalked about being put back in the game
(04:04):
or putting themselves back into the gamewhen they know they shouldn't have been in
the game because they had a concussion. Well it's money, man, Like
they start a lifestyle and then theyit's like they're injured. They're told to
make a decision on whether or notthey're going to keep their job or not.
They're not thinking clearly and they're like, all right, let's let's let's
(04:26):
go play again. Stressful decision whetheror not to make money for your family
or not. They just jump rightback into it. That's a lot of
money. It's a lot of Ittalks, it talks, and it sometimes
helps you walk well. There certainlyare interesting statistics coming out, Dan and
we are deeply concerned and waiting tosee if there's really any direct correlation between
(04:48):
football and head trauma. Oh andit looks like some of the NFL alumni
are taking the field now. There'sall Pro safety Martin Gregor's and fullback Jim
Harris looks like his pants are downaround his ankles. Somebody should let him
know. Oh an old surehand,Mike tax the god that you bring out
the NFL players who they're clearly havingconcussions, syndromeing and barely do anything.
(05:11):
Go ahead. I actually want topoint out the part of it was that
actually they would so a lot ofguys would lose their health insurance if they
left the team. That's where theirhealth insurance lies like that, that's where
they got their treatment was from theteam. As you know, I'm not
a Dodgers fan, but I willsay not recently they have a player on
their roster just so that they canpay for his health insurance, but he
doesn't actually play for him, butthey do have him signed to several million
(05:34):
dollar contracts so that he can stillget medical benefits. So good on the
Dodgers. This is this is fuckingfunny. The NFL players walking around seemed
to be baking an imaginary cake.Dan yeah, meant to be a cake
or perhaps a loaf of bread,but he definitely thinks he's faking something.
(05:59):
Even okay, so as you know, even as as a head trauma uh
and put it in air quotes victimbecause I don'tuldn't. I wouldn't, I
wouldn't call myself that. But evento me that this is fucking funny because
just a look, I got iton mute here, but just to look
on his face there as he pullsout and he's like, but he smells
(06:20):
it and whatnot. That's so funny. He's all exciting about the bread or
me wishes that happened to me.Matt. If you don't know, I
actually got hit in the head withthe ball baseball in sports probably said it
in the past episode, but itdoesn't matter. That's that's still funny.
So funny. Here's him, explainingto Randy, Now they don't have the
(06:43):
kickoff anymore. I just don't getfootball. Get good? What's okay?
You don't suck at football, Butters, You suck at all sports. You.
Oh, Eric killed me. Ishould work at a time of sage
problem. He'll good at chicking.That's better, all Eric tells me.
I'm so good it sucking. Ishould work in type type parlor. Isn't
that read? Oh yeah, getit, butters. And with that,
(07:06):
the Browns are ready to kick itoff back to the Broncos. All right,
all right, here you go boys, watch them on the kickoff.
All right, special teams are themost important plays. We don't have kickoffs
anymore. Huh. The school saidthey're the most dangerous place, so they
don't have a ste them anymore.Wait wait, wait, way, whoa
what the he's so offended that theygot rid of the kickoffs? What the
(07:38):
fuck? Oh? Yeah, Idon't know how much that would fly,
you know, exciting? Yeah,that's I'm not even a football fan.
One of the most exciting things tosee is a guy return a kickoff for
a touchdown. That's that's good funright there. I mean, the NFL
has modified it in certain ways nowover the years to where like the kickoff
is a shorter time, or likelike the hitar kicks it shorter length,
(08:03):
so that way there isn't as muchtime for all the players to get in
place or run down the field withso much momentum. So they have tried
to modify it, if you will, for the safety of the players.
But yeah, it's still one ofthe most crazy plays that in the punt
return. Yeah it is. Iactually kind of do agree in a sense
not having children necessarily do a fullblown kickoff because getting getting those kinds of
(08:28):
concussions as a child, that's likeirreversible. Sure, you probably shouldn't be
doing that at that age. That'sthat's skip point I'm about no kickoffs.
Yes, we've decided to go withoutkickoffs because of the concerns raised over concussions.
Okay, oh yeah, we don'twant our kids getting hurt playing football.
But I think I have a wayto make it even better. Why
(08:48):
don't we have the players just wearbras. Yeah, the players should all
wear bras, and instead of helmets, they should wear little tinfoil hats because
you know, it's the future andwe shouldn't be so barbaric. It's the
future, and of course, andof course he's being sarcastic. But nobody
(09:09):
is picking on randy sarcasm throughout thiswhole episode. That's Randy's I guess,
his frustration, his problem this episode, no one's. He can't stop himself
from being sarcastic because nobody picks upon his sarcasm and calls him out on
his bullshit. Therefore, it continuesto happen, and it gets worse.
But let's see. But let's seewhat happens here is Randy talks himself into
(09:30):
a football coaching position. How wouldthe bras and tinfoil hats make it safer?
Oh, you're all not getting it. See, while we're at it,
we'll have a balloon instead of aball, and whoever catches the balloon
tries to run while all the otherplayers hug. You think the students would
love that, You think the studentswould like them. It's so weird.
(09:58):
It's so weird to feel fling ofsarcasm going right over someone's head when you
when you're the one being sarcastic,it's half of you is wants to laugh
at it, and half of youit's like frustrated and it's like it was
You're like, is this actually happening? The jarring feeling? Of course Rady
(10:22):
He says, yeah, I'm serious. Oh, they'd love it a sport
where safety is all that matters.How about we call it sarcast of ball?
Okay, would would you mind beingthe coach of the South Park Sarcastball
team? Jesus Christ, Yes,I would love to be the coach of
the sarcast of ball team? Yes, I would love to be the coach
(10:48):
team. I'm not picking up onhis sarcasm. There his how is his
wife not? She would know?Right? You would think Sharon would say,
be like, okay, Randy,that's enough. So here we go
next day now at back to SouthPark Elementary School with the boys and see
all just up in tinfoil bras andthey're gonna put you really have to wear
(11:11):
bras? Yes, Stan, thisis what people want. Don't worry.
You look really cool. What didI do with it? Oh? You
know, try to get it intothe end zone, but be really polite
about it. Okay, I'm meThis game was This game it's great.
(11:33):
It's built for butters. The Canadiansdude, the Canadian the national team and
the Olympics would dominate the Canadian where'sJoe Moran? Shout out to Yeah,
where's Joe Moran? Shout out toJoe. But yes, it definitely it's
all about being nice. So herecomes principal. Don't you know, how's
it going, coach? How's itgoing? Awesome? Nobody's getting hurt and
(11:56):
the kids are learning valuable life lessonsbecause hugging in safety is what the world
is all about. So you're happywith these changes? Happy? I'm thrilled.
Look at how much better this is? OOKI is football safe for your
kids? Concerned parent, Randy Marshsays, so this is I gets taken
(12:20):
further again. Randy still being sarcasticand everyone's taking him serious. Oh,
and it started a movement to reformthe sparts, gathering followers by the hundreds.
Oh, this is good. Nicefor you all to turn out in
record numbers to show your support forsarcastic ball, which Randy does point out.
(12:41):
That's a good point here. Peoplewon't come out to support things that
actually affect their day to day lives. Bills, you know, city ordinances,
you know events going on in theirtown's laws being created. But they'll
come out for sarcasta ball because entertainmentis the lifeblood of this cut tree,
don't you know you sarcast ball?Matt, Not really, not for that.
(13:03):
I would think it would be sarcastic. I think I'm I would look
at that and be like, that'sthe joke. If you go out,
you're the idiot because they're being sarcastic. It's like, I feel like the
joke is on you for showing up. Oh I'm showing up, baby.
What's the name with our kids gettingknocked onto ground and tackled. Let's make
(13:28):
sarcastball the official school sport nationwide.Go on, pat yourselves on the back,
showing just how much. Marge thenfound himself in front of the leaders
of Washington. This is gay.This is gay. This is the You're
(13:48):
gonna make my point here. Wegot a world, we got a war
going on, we got this goingon. But yeah, let's let's let's
change the football game. We said, yeah, let's do that. We
got an economy in the toilet,a big election coming up, but this
country's number one priority should be makingfootball safer. It should, it should,
(14:13):
and everybody agrees with them. Here, Obama, all the kids,
this is ridiculous. Are we reallygoing to go out there and play North
Park like this? I can't youremember if we're supposed to hug the full
back or compliment him. I'm soconfused. That's a good point, That
(14:39):
is a great Oh my, arethey supposed to help him? Are they
supposed to complment? I don't know. All right, let's jump ahead here.
His butter's gonna a heartwarming speech toprep his guys, pump him up.
We've been practicing and getting ready forthis game. You failies just want
to quit. We don't even understandhow this game is played. This great
game isn't about play. It's aboutsportsmanship and compassion. And when I look
(15:03):
around this lockeroo, when I seesome of the nicest, most compassionate guys
I've ever met. Token You're nicerthan anybody I know, the clay Will
you get better hugs than anyone outon that field with the victory? Because
we I love that reaction from theclat Will you get better hugs than anyone
(15:31):
out on that field? That's chair? Oh, We're just gonna let Newest
Park walk away with a victory.Because we think they know how to be
nicer than us, being niceest aboutwhat's inside you. When your enemy is
nice to you, you just benice right back, reach down and if
they give you two balloons, wellyou give them free. Yeah. And
when they try thank you for thoseballoons, you say, I don't need
(15:52):
any things. I did it becauseit was the right thing to do.
And then you give him a smile. Yeah. And when that other team
tries to come at you, whenyou got to reach deep down right there
to your creamy shiitrash please please,and Shady was well, gooey happy eleven
goose sis and you just got touse that to be the nicest, most
compassionate player you've ever been and letthe world know that we will not go
(16:14):
down. So cray, Yeah,this fucking butters, he's kind of all
motivated, even cart It almost intears, just was trying not to bust
up laughing in the middle of thatclip. Oh yeah, oh it's great.
You know that, you know,you know, this episode of the
podcast is starting with part part ofthat clip with the creamy gooey goodness Kidnes's
(16:40):
that's one of the so you actuallyyou had asked earlier. What my all
time favorite South Park episodes were I'mgonna go not episodes. I want to
say that's one of my all timefavorite south Park moments. Right there is
is Butter's doing the whole speech upthere with the creamy, gooey goodness.
Well, as I mentioned before,the NFL is gonna adapt this. So
here's Roger Goodell announcing they're changing tosarcastic ball football. Oh but why stop
(17:06):
there. Since football is so barbaric, we should change too. So let's
give a big welcome to the newcoach of the Denver Broncos, Randy Marsh.
So, of course Roger Goodell isbeing sarcastic. Randy's being sarcastic.
Everybody's being sarcastic now, but noone's picking up on it. Congratulations,
(17:30):
March, good job. Oh thankyou, commissioner. I'm thrilled to be
a part of this. Thanks.Nice going. Yeah, no, no,
you nice going. Hey, guys, how about a nice picture to
welcome in the future of sports?Okay, so now you go ahead.
Hold on, Matt, This isa brilliant play on the fact that everyone
(17:52):
involved in a lot of these thingsis completely full of shit and looking each
other. How many conversations do youthink happen in these worlds where people are
looking at each other dead in theeye and just knowing they're talking about some
straight up nonsense and just carrying theconversation on anyways. No, it's true.
They're just being nice for the sakeof being nice, and they both
(18:15):
know they're just like being full ofshit. Right, No, that is
true. So now here's the gameI believe. I want to say,
it's this game. It's see lowGreen is going to sing the song I
Love care the Ball. It's somuch better in football to the inaugural game
(18:36):
of the National Star Castaball League,as we bring you today's matchup between the
Denver Broncos and the Open Raider.Yeah, looking good, guys, Let's

(19:44):
song, of all your hit song. I'm a big fan of all your
hit song. Yeah, exactly.So I'm moving forward here into the episode.
Now, as you saw Butters,he you know, he motivated the
team, right and because of this, now Randy has of course left for
(20:06):
the Denver Broncos. This lifts leavesa spot at the head coach position,
and the boy realize that they wantButters to be their head coach. The
Butters takes over as the South Parkhead coach. That night, Butter has
a wet dream and saves his creamygoo, which is actually seamen. But
he's unaware of this because his fatheralways avoids answering what it is. His
(20:30):
father basically tells him it's his creamygoo, so Butter's collects it, thinking
it's something important that you retain.Yeah, let's jump now back into Butters
being convinced to take over the positionof the head coach for the sarcasta ball
football team taking professional sarcastaball really seriously, Well, we might as well call
(20:55):
up Blakewood and tell him we forfeit. We can't. We don't have a
coach, Kyle, who needs tocoach? We have Butters. Huh hey,
yeah, the guy is right.From now on, your team,
Captain, Butters, you lead usto victory. Hello, jeez, no,
no, I don't know flish,Butters. You understand this game better
than anybody. I can't be Ichuget anything not if this you don't.
(21:17):
What about that creamy filling you've talkedabout, that gooey goodness inside you that
makes you the butteriest Butters? Weknow this is funny. This is butter
response. I forgot about this.Ere there, it's over flowing to cage.
It's it's over flowing sometimes as tongue. That's funny, Butters, creamy
(21:47):
goo. So, as I mentioned, here's now Butters, that's asleep at
night, Butters bumud. Butters hasa wet dream from all the excitement,
mutters, yea too, Lady hishands girl Wendy from him in this tree.
The captain of sports teams leave himalone. Man. So here's that
(22:18):
creamy here's that creamy goo and hewakes up. Oh bad, it happened
more than that creamy goo came out. Oh well, uh, that's okay,
Butters. Remember what we talked about. Sometimes our happy creamy feeling just
gets so full it comes out atnight. I was having happy about a
(22:41):
girl, right, Butters, let'sit's happy feelings. Let's just not talk
about it. I mean, that'strue. Usually you don't talk about it.
That's going to come back and bitehim in the ass. It is
true, but he should have that'sright. I mean, the father should
explained what his body was going throughsexually. Otherwise, Butters just thinks it's
a That's why he goes and tellsan entire star cast ball team full of
(23:04):
people to let their creamy goo out, let their creamy okay dad, So,
of course Butters collects his creamy goo. Who say that for later?
That's he's got literally an entire likevile. He's got more than that vile,
(23:26):
right, he got a whole freakinglike fridge that we'll get to here.
So here's the NFL player start playingsarcastave. I see Peyton Manning with
the balloon there at the time playingfor the Broncos. And then you can
see Denver Broncos and Steelers players huggingeach other. Manning has the ball.
He's saying some really great things aboutthe other team. Manning met by Lamar
Woodley. He's giving the balloon toWoodley. The referee comes in. Oh
(23:51):
the referee is calling that a touchdown. Oh wait, now another official is
signaling that's a safety. Oh yeah, replacement refs there. Gonna have to
sort this one out with the sidejudge. It's a failed goal. Yeah,
fuck it? Just who cares?Cares? Fuck it? It's a
(24:15):
field goal, of course. NowRady marsh is gonna have the propost press
coffee here. Now after the game, coach, three to nothing victory over
the Steelers, you must feel likea real winner. Yeah, well,
the other team was just so awesomeon offense. I was really scared.
Coach Bilichick says, no way wecan beat the Broncos. They've had the
(24:37):
same coach for almost a day.Oh yeah, I'm just the guy who
invented Sarcastle ball. There's no wayI know how to coach it. Guess
we'll find out on Sunday. Yeah, all right, guys, listen up.
Forget about the day off. Weneed to practice tomorrow, practice on
Monday after a victory. Great,that's good, Peyton, but we need
(24:57):
to get better practice on That's justwhat I want to do. That's it.
We need to come in on aMonday and we need to practice.
Be more sarcastic and be more ofan asshole. Guys, how are you
doing yourselves here? Peyton? Manningwould be good at this. He's a
(25:18):
pretty nice guy, right. UhSo, following this scene here, Brandy,
of course, is confronted now bySharon Marsh who thinks something is wrong
with Randy's brain because he's so sarcastic. Cartman seeks Butter's help for tast the
ball. He's the coach that Buttersgives Cartman some of his semen, which
he thinks is his creamy goo.Cartman drinks the semen and thinks he feels
(25:44):
better. Oh well, then atthe south Park game has shown that everyone's
drinking butter seamen. And then Randyand Sharing go to the doctor where they
find out that Randy will always besarcastic. Randy, Randy, and the
doctor, both being sarcastic, comeup with the I take the money from
cant a other genetic disease research andmake commercials about how sarcasm might be bad
for the brain. Oh my gosh, as they take sarcasm here, all
(26:11):
right, so here, let's jumphere now and to Cartman having a conversation
with Butters about needing to find ascreamy goo. Because I'm no good at
sarcasta ball. I suck at beingnice and polite. I'm so good at
sucking. I should work at atime massage parlor. Oh no, Eric,
you're a great player. No,I just don't have the mojo you
(26:32):
have, Butters. Oh well,Eric, I told you everyone has a
creamy feeling inside and where all thefeelings of compassion and enjoy come from.
Oh din, your dadd It wouldkill you. Then I don't have a
dad. Oh right, yeah,I'm sorry. Well, everyone has a
creamy feeling, Eric, and somepeople have so much of that feeling,
and it comes out sometimes a lotof times when I go to sleep,
(26:55):
and especially if I'm having wonderful dreams, it make me feel really good.
What the gartment about his wet dreams? Here? I love how Butters is
always like ahead in the growing upphases, and the Yeah, it's so
funny how his he's it's weird.His personality, you would think the opposite,
(27:15):
But he's always looked slightly ahead ofthem, and all all these things
he encounters, the more adult likesituations more common than they do. Yeah,
exactly. Whereas the kids just endup being crazy over the top like
life threatening situations, Butters ends upin these sexual situations. He's he's like
hitting puberty way earlier than the restof them. Right, Sometimes I wake
(27:38):
up and win a wake up andwe like him, have metgoys come out.
Here's a lot of bik but italways makes you like keeping just in
case ever went out about my happysature had feelings, you save it all.
Okay, here's the disgusting part,Darren you were talking about is but
he's just going to show gartment hisuh, his semen bank that he's got.
(28:00):
Regor doesn't come out every night,but I sure do seem to have
the surplus of it. Boy,does he have a surplus of it.
Oh my goodness, it gets worse. Oh I know, but uh,
he's got a lot to come.Yeah, I don't know. I didn't
(28:25):
really wanted it that way. Okay, So this is what I mean.
This, that's impressive. He's achild. This is what I mean about
hitting puberty before the rest of them. Look at that closet. That is
a child. We're talking stockpiled.Of course I didn't realize it before.
Here's a here's Kurtman not drinking thegoop. Yeah, you get it,
(28:51):
Cartman. Hmm, it's kind ofa grapy bleachy flavor. Do you feel
woman can pass it? Oh?Shit, I think I do. Who
did Trey and Matt have to askwhat is come taste like to write that
line? I don't. I don'tknow, Okay, so go ahead.
(29:12):
I imagine they have a pretty goodstanding, like comedic relationship with their staff,
so it wasn't hard, I'm sure. So here is Randy now on
Jim Rome is burning when Jim Romewas a thing. As he's discussing sarcasta
ball. Welcome back to Rome.We're gonna talk to some sarcasta ball.
(29:32):
I can't wait. I can't waitto talk sarcasta ball because it's really compelling.
Joining me now is the coach ofthe Dinver Broncs and the inventor of
sarcasta ball, Randy Marsh thanks forcalling in, Randy. Really happy to
have you on the show. Yeah, it's awesome to be on your show,
Randy. First off, thanks fortaking a sport that we all love
and turning it into a sarcastic nightmare. Way to go, Thanks Jim,
(29:52):
because it's totally what I intended.You know, when I came up with
the idea, I was sure itwas going to end up like this.
Well, it certainly makes for anexciting game. About last night's nail bider
that ended zero to zero. That'sa game I want to watch twice.
That's a game I want to watchfour times. Check that I'll watch that
game five times. Good luck onSunday. I'm sure there'll be another game
that I could watch twelve times.Check that thirteen times. Thanks, Jim,
(30:15):
checked that thirteen. Check that thirteentimes. I have a hard time
watching a football game once thirteen.Wow. Wow. Here's as I mentioned,
Sharon now going to come to Randy, and they're going to come to
inclusion. He can't stop being sarcastichere, Randy. Aren't you going to
(30:36):
come join your family for dinner?Oh yeah, I've totally got time to
do that, Sharon. In fact, how about I go downstairs and make
a four course meal for all ofyou. Check that a seven course meal.
Randy, something's happened. Are youunable to stop being sarcastic? Oh
right, I can't stop being sarcastic. Now I'm telling you, Randy,
I think this sport is doing somethingto your brain. Right, it's doing
(30:59):
something to my brain. And nowI can't stop being sarcastic. Do you
mean that? Yes, I totallymean it. Help me, Sharon,
help me, Saren help all right, So here's us some more sarcastic ball
with the boys and billy boys.Oh, Carmen, you idiot, skate
(31:26):
budget guys. Cut up, cuddleup, cuddle up instead of huddle up.
Cuddle up, Billy. Now,what's going on after you? That
kid is but booking us. He'ssaying mean things to try and piss it
off. Yeah, we need moreof your mojo. Butters alloray, holoray.
Here you go. Cartman's bra islike twice the size of the rest
(31:48):
of theirs. That's funny, theyall drink. They're all drinking his creamy
goo like. Carmen actually has abigger bra than the rest of them,
and it doesn't make sense because hismom is probably the thinnest out of all
of them, so she probably haddoesn't isn't the packing like his Stan's mom
is, the one that we've seenin the past is usually what it's been
packing beep Beepkay. Okay, butCartman's got some pretty big titties himself.
(32:14):
That's fair. That's fair. Here'sRainy getting a X ray test on his
brain or what we call an MRImaybe. I'm like, yeah, yeah,
or s HU scan. I'm sorry, mister marsh, but there appears
(32:34):
to be permanent damage. Oh boy, this is great? What now that?
Never mind? Keep going okay,we just keeps getting better. How
do we fix this? Doctor?You don't, I'm sorry. There just
isn't enough research and how sarcasm affectsthe brain. So that's it. I
should just go home and forget aboutwhat this sport has done to me.
(32:57):
Let thousands of people place our castof ball and hurt too. Oh really,
you think there's a correlation between sarcasmand sarcasta ball. I liked this
that the doctor gets sarcastic here hegoes, Really, that's fascinating. Please
go on, No sarcasta ball hasnothing to do with it. I I
just really enjoy being sarcastic, andso I must be finding an excuse.
(33:22):
You know, I have a fiftyyear old Alzheimer's patient out in the waiting
room who can't even remember his family. But let's forget about him and focus
on how sarcasta ball might be deflatingpeople's brains. My son is out there
playing that game. It's heartwarming tosee you have such high regard for his
safety. Okay, well, I'vegot a better idea. Let's get all
(33:42):
the funding for cancer research and geneticdiseases. Let's take all that money and
make commercials that say, hey,America, sarcasm might not be such a
great thing for your brain. Now. Of course, this is a party
in the NFL at the time wasmaking commercials of balconcussions and stuff like that.
This is the joke. Oh mygosh, what do you mean the
dudes running at each other twenty milesan hour, you know, crashing into
(34:06):
each other. That's bad for yourbrain and your body. What I didn't
know that? That's crazy? Thankyou, doctor, Thank you so much.
Sharon still like baffled, like,but hell just happened here? I
(34:27):
don't. This is most of uslike just watching TV and sports news and
right uh so after meanwhile, aswe mentioned that being infronted and the doctor
about everyone is drinking, now,Butter Seamen Randy and sharing the doctor where
(34:49):
they find that Ring will always besarcastic. Randy the doctor, both being
sarcastic, come up with the ideato take the money from cancer and other
genetic diseases research and make commercials abouthow sarcasm might be bad for the brain.
Now. Soon after, Jim Romestarts recommending a new product for sarcast
the ball Butter's creepy new and weget a hershol and he had another stealth
party, Randy tries to stop Standfrom playing more sarcasta ball. After he
(35:13):
protests, Randy tells the crowd,trying to not be sarcastic, that sarcast
of ball should stop. And thenthen this leads to uh, Butter's telling
I'm sorry, Stand telling his dadto relax and drinks some of Putter's there's
creamy goo, and then Randy drinksit and goes this has come uh.
And then Butter's is confronted by hisparents and he becomes grounded for two and
(35:37):
a half months and a week,despite Butters having no idea what come is.
When asked, the father says hewill answer it when he gets older.
And then when Butter's falls asleeps hegets an erection, yells for his
father. Father tells him it ishis compassed and it's pointing out because it's
his friend. And then Butter's promptlytells his dad for telling it basically,
(35:58):
but it's from an erection. Hisdad says, it's his compass and which
is just his dad is his Hisdad is like the worst parent I've ever
you will ever see. Butter's dadis, Oh, it's so like from
the start of when South Park started, all the way to the end.
Butter's dad is, which is horrible. He's a menace, a menace.
(36:21):
Yeah, so here's Jim Roman.There's an energy to get me through a
game. That's when I reached fora bottle of this butters Creamy Goo.
You play hard, you need asports drink that gives you that extra boost.
Sports these days are all about beingnice, So take your game to
the next level. With Butter's CreamyGoo. You'll be filled with feelings of
good tidings and be nicer than aray of sunshine. Get with it and
(36:45):
get we'll rewind that here it isa gain game to the next level.
With butters creamy goo, you'll behis arms. Here's now throwing in his
face. Still the feelings of goodtidings would be nicer than a ray of
(37:06):
sunshine. Get with it. Thebutter's creamy coup is chalk full of all
the essentials. And athlete needs commitment, compassion and combroadery. And now it's
available in court signs disparts, thevest with disparads, the vest with tom
Rady drinks like a full big BobGatorade. That here we go. When
(37:30):
I get hot and tired, onlyone thing can boost my compassion. Now
back in the game, go andchrag about all about his creamy g that's
sir, just about room temperature.Male. But go back to that frame.
(37:52):
I don't know if you get thatframe right there at the end of
the coach. Now back in thegame, go and chrg a bottle about
that served just above room temperature.Oh, that's so that last frame though
with the coach the getting. Nowback in the game and track a bottle
(38:28):
that's one of the funniest scream Captainsouth Park. I swear to God when
he was drawing that part of theanimation right there with the face, I
would have I would have printed oneof these and like put it on someone's
wall in the office or something inthe morning. Here you go, that's
(38:51):
just about room temperature. All right. So now we're at the football game.
As I mentioned, Rainy's gonna gethis sons stand to stop playing Castle
because he has become victim of sarcasmand does not want this menacing, you
know, mental anguish to be uponsus being startok sarcastic fry do you?
(39:21):
Oh no that I forgot about thatpart. No you didn't. Randy just
show takes out a kid on thefocall field ship. I forgot about that
me too, because it comes intonowhere. It's so fast and so fast.
(39:46):
He doesn't say any Why didn't beone? Oh no? That d
stop? Okay, stand Dad,get in the car, stan we're going
(40:08):
home. We're sorry, Stanley,we don't want you playing this sport anymore.
They get off the field. Good. I don't he's gonna give a
heartfelt feature about sarcasm. I'm notgonna play all of it, but here's
a snippet of it. Nobody saidanything about the kid getting ran over,
but nobody cares about the kitchen.Nobody, nobody if the we should have
(40:31):
every kid playing. Sorry, sorry, hang on, gotta not be so
sarcastic. Let me try that again. Listen to everyone. If you let
your kids play sarcast of ball,you're a ingenius cut Sorry, try this
again. Look what I'm trying tosay is we should have like ten sarcasta
(40:54):
ball leagues, because then everyone,God damn it, Stanley, just get
your thing and come on, we'regoing home. Well, you can't tell
me what to do. Yeah,we're your parents. We can't tell you
what to do. Don't you seewhat this sport has done to your father?
Do you want to end up likehim? Oh? Right, Like
he doesn't exaggerate every disease he gets. Oh, Randy, what's happening.
(41:17):
Randy's so worried about this. Hejust ran a kid over with his car,
and this whole time, he's soworried about the kid. Yeah no,
you no, you're It's a goodpoint. So stands, of course
and tell his dad to chill outand drink some Butter's creaming gooseport that has
no violence. Is it's so hardfor you to believe that. When Butter
says competitiveness can be compassionate, he'sbeing completely sincere don't see how anyone could
(41:42):
play this game with any sincerity.That's because you're too grumpy and negative to
believe it. What you need isa sports drink to can boost your levels
of caring and goodness. Yeah,d you need some of this. Randy,
of course, is going to takeMichael stuff. Here comes, Randy
takes a drink and then he goesthis is come gulping. Go back and
(42:15):
listen to the gulping sound effect.It's I'm sure you don't want to,
but this is come and you canjust sit here in your room and think
about what you've done. Just becausepeople try and make football a little safer
(42:37):
by changing a kickoff rule doesn't meanyou need to take it to Oh,
why don't we just drink each other'scalm. Sarcasm like that is homophobic,
chauvinistic and completely lacking in maturity.Any questions, what sarcasm and what's come?
We talk about that when you're older. Come on, everybody, let's
work on that kickoff change and getback to some football. You got him
(43:00):
into this mess, sir, Wait, you didn't tell him what it was?
And the tault Yeah, like Isaid, worst dad of all time,
Like poor Butters, like what hewould be so psychologically damaged at already
at this point in his life witha dad liked that. Butters is like
(43:20):
the mentally strongest human being ever becausehe got is not told why there was
creamy goo coming out of him inthe middle of the night for no reason,
told him his dick was a compassand and got ye yelled at by
the person that told him that he'sabout to tell him about the compass thing
he hasn't told him yet. Butyes, overall for the episode, yes,
(43:42):
he's a bad piece of show.No, I just mean like total
his childhood total, Like his dadjust like has fucked with him so much
and then he just in a constantstate of fucking with him and then grounding
him for not knowing better. Sohere's so, here's the episode. Now
wrapping up as Butter is gonna belistening to the Jim Rome Show. Welcome
(44:06):
back to Rome. Some of youmight have seen me on TV last night.
Turns out the drink I endorsed withsemen. Turns out a little kid
was just being sarcastic. That kid'sprobably grounded for a month. Check that.
I'm sure he's grounded for two monthsand a week. Football needs to
be made safer. So why don'twe have players in bras drinking semen.
Yeah that's a fastball right there.That's a real stroke of philosophic genius.
(44:30):
Wore little kids drinking semen to finallybring back real football. And I don't
know what else to say, butso long, sarcasta ball. It was
nice knowing you. Let's just hopenothing like this ever happens again. Probably
won't not for another year. Checkthat a couple of days now dead.
Hey did what mar readers are stiffenputty? Oh well, butters, that's
(44:54):
just the friendly compass. See,whenever you have friends in the area,
you are a little compass there tellsyou where they are. It's pointing up
because Jesus is your friend. Fiftywow, just wow, thanks Dad,
it's pointing up because Jesus is yourfriend. Darren, it's Jesus as your
(45:15):
friend. All right, Well,I got better better get down on my
knees and start playing Jesus. That'strue. Well, ladies and gentlemen,

(47:37):
at suck my Balls Odd at gmaildot com. So Adelaide sent us
into medicine, Jade said, ohmy god, Dane, you know,
the last time someone yelled at mefrom a car, they said nice bush.
And this is course referencing the factwhen they were being yelled at out
of a car. Well, Ican't repeat the words, but it's the
(47:59):
homosexual sir. I completely bent andsnapped and gave face. Hahaha. Ug
bullies. You know, it's sosad because my grandma and of course she's
now referring to the episode of Buttersand His Grandmother, Lord bless her.
When she got dementia, Oh my, she would say things like, oh
my god, did you just missmy pie hole? And vomit. I
still need to watch the obesity episodebefore I listened to you guys review,
(48:22):
but oh my god. Toward theend of my grandma's life, she would
yell, who the fuck are you? Why are you so fat? Why
you stink? Who are you?Where's my cereal? Love her so much
though she was absolutely the best humanbeing beforehand, anyone who put it in
your fucking mouth. That's such agruesome scene. I can taste the salt
on my tongue. Bullying in thebathroom, such fertile ground for seating power
(48:44):
dynamics infused with body fluids. Slurp. And then she continued on by saying,
and Billy Bucker, oh sorry,and Billy Bucky's Bailey Bully Bopper Buckers
be trifling. Oh my god,this anti bullying video is everything. And
I think this comes from these videos, and she cited a bullying video that
documentary Dan mentioned Bully Scook Betta goJacket in San Diego for giving us all
(49:07):
the trivia fall asslee because trivia hedid finally do it? Did you guys
just reference that old French language learningcommercial? We did? And she says,
me and my sister loved trying tomimic that commercial. But to make
a long story short, Butter's riseabove domestic violence and standing his ground is
reassuring and motivating. Take care ifyou're gonna go zipe, remember to bring
(49:30):
a towel. Thanks Adelaide, ThanksAdelaie, And I actually have a question
for you, Adelaie. I gotone back for you. Are you from
Australia by chance, because there isa beautiful town in Australia called Adelaide.
Curious there's any relation there. Idon't know. I don't know if that's
necessarily the case, but Adelaid sendyour feedback, Darren wants ladies, Jared,
(49:52):
you can send your feedback and beheard right here if you send it
like I said, suck my BallsPod at gmail dot com, south Park
Podcast on int or you can sendus a direct message on x, Twitter
or whatever you want to call itat south Park Pods with an ass.
So we're also at south Park Podon Facebook. You can join us at
the south Park Fan south Park FanClub group on Facebook, the largest south
(50:16):
Park fan group in the world.So come on down, hang out,
let me make some friends today.All right, let's go ahead and well
let's get into some ladies and gentlemen. Of course, I am not the
two thousand and twenty two Red RocksDay one south Park Trivia champion. I
(50:39):
am not a doctor of economics,puconomics, polyphonics and scupinomics. I am
not a trivia god like Joevernla,but I'll do my best. Kenny appears
to be unhooded in the locker roscene, but is hooded again throughout the
episode. It's interesting much of thisepisode was inspired by the fact that the
NFL had change its kickoff rules overthe past two years to try and reduce
(51:02):
injury. If I mentioned in theepisode, Randy Marsh's uniform is different from
the one seen in the national previewof the episode of the trailer. At
the time, the twenty twelve UnitedStates presidential election was ongoing, which was
referenced here by Randy Marsh but goinginto puberty as he has experienced no emissions
(51:23):
directions which does make senses. Lateron he will go to Hawaii. This
is the first episode to air inthe month of September since the episode cow
Days, which was back in nineteenninety eight. And finally, Invesco Field
at Mile High one of several namesthat the Denver Stadium was portrayed a now
(51:44):
known as in Power Field at MileHigh. Of course, this goes through
diffic naming rights, complicated naming rights, but usually just comes down to who
has the most money. Contract comesup and a bunch of different companies bid
to have their name on the stadium. Ladies and gentlemen, that's your trivia.
All right, I'll get into someculture. Dane Becker's not here,
(52:08):
but let me read him up foryou. Lamar Woodley, an American football
player, tweeted that he would bein this episode. The Jim Rome CBS
network was featured using news beat throughoutthis episode. Of course, Jim Room
is seen to be returning repeating thephrase, which is something he has known
for when he is being sarcastic andhe's trying to fill up airtime. Referenced
(52:30):
in this episode cee Lo Green,an American rapper and singer who was ridiculed
for singing the John Lennon song ImagineBadly on New Year's Eve in twenty twelve.
After se Lo green sarcastic ball performance, one fan says, I'm a
big fan of all your hit song. This is a quarre for the pop
artist twenty ten single Forget You,that had excessive radio play at the time.
(52:52):
Nannious geen, No, I'm justkidding, app that that song a
shy cat the ball. It's waybetter than football. It's the run down
tam and when out of and I'mnot forgetting that song. Uh this.
(53:15):
There are also several celebrities as wemet I know. There are also several
celebrities, as we mentioned, canbe seen drinking Butter's creamy goo. That
of course included Lance Armstrong, TomBrady, Blaine Gabbert, and Jim Rome.
This episode for references controversies over theconcussions in football and growing issues at
the time that led to thousands offootball filers footballers file suits against the NFL
(53:39):
reference that as well. And finally, as you can see later on the
app, Wolverine from the X Mencomment can be seen as a tat one
of the football players and ladies andgentlemen. That is your pop culture.
All right, let's go. We'llfinish this out out here with some storyline
(54:01):
continuity. In the commercial for CreamyDew, Butters out through a hole saying
like me, which is a mansimilar to how he said that's me.
In Butter's Very Own episode from seasonfive, Butters seems to have forgotten what
erection are, even though he haspreviously explained to them and to Jimmy Volmer
in the season nine episode Erection Day, Butter's tap shoes can be seen in
(54:24):
his closet when Carpon when they're lookingover his collection of goo of course,
they can be seen on the topshelf in a box that says tap shoes.
This is a reference to the episodeYou Left in the a. Butter's
Professor kios helmet and necklace are alsoin the closet, and Butter's T shirt
that he wore when he was avampire kid in the im groundabole can also
(54:45):
be seen in the closet. Thenecklace where he wears as he uses a
when he's a pimp, and Butter'sbottom bitch can also be seen Butter's closet.
Finally, here stands common at theend of the episode about his father
always exaggerate any illness he gets asa reference to hypopogia, which, of
course Randy showed that in the alcoholepisode Bloody Mary and Nicole's Parents. Cartman
(55:07):
finds love or scene at the PTAmeeting with all the other parents, which
she just debuted, and then Butterswas able to ejaculate for the first time
in Little Crime Stoppers, where Cartmanforced him to pull on his wiener to
release a semen sample and Ladies andGentlemen, that is your references to storyline,
continent, pop culture, and trivia. Darren tell me, sir what
(55:30):
would you like her to just thinkabout this episode? You know, you
wouldn't really think so from someone who'sbeen hitting the head, but definitely when
the NFL players are on the field, that can cussed NFL players and he
seems to be baking an imaginary cakeor whatever the commentator says immediately after,
(55:52):
like it's obviously not how it actuallyis. But immediately after the guy gets
hit the first guys, he thinkshe's driving home, so good. Yeah,
I liked the I mean at thetime, of course, and I
think even until this day, youknow, concussions are now taken more serious
(56:15):
when it comes to sports. Atthe time, I would people were learning
about it. Yeah, I feellike it was finally being spoken up more
from former athletes, and the sciencewas now supporting said data that showed that
these athletes itself had suffered you know, life altering injuries to their brain from
said sport, and they were notbeing even supported in the medical fashion for
(56:37):
so long that they all got togetherand sought to get reparations in regards to
their union, you know, abilityto cover their medical needs. And you
know, obviously with them being inthat situation, they couldn't go on to
a lot of them couldn't go onto have normal lives, regular jobs because
of the after effects of it.So I liked that they talked about that
(56:58):
in a comical way. These abilityto turn it into a another game through
sarcasm. Yeah, well it's okay, jokes aside. I will have to
say that what they do say inthis episode is one hundred percent true.
I gat there's but there's nothing themedical industry will ever do to catch up
with the fact that it'll change yourlife forever. That's why doctors you typically
(57:22):
tell people that have been through thatyou kind of have to move on.
Hence me just laughing at that jokeand not really caring too much about the
rest of it. There it's stilllike this. The medical industry is not
set up to support concussions, andthe entire world is still incredibly misinformed on
how concussions work. I cannot evenexplain how much through because I didn't get
(57:47):
brain damage through my concussion. Imean, I got hitted over one hundred
miles an hour in the head,so I got it's fair to say that
it was a significant head injury,but I didn't have brain damage. But
the second tell anybody that you've beenhitting the head there immediately thought their immediate
thought is like, oh, theperson's dumb. Now they have they have
(58:07):
brain problems, which is why maybeat first, when this had happened to
me, I probably wouldn't have foundthis joke as funny with the football players
on the field with some distance,like, yeah, okay, you don't
take it as seriously. I canlaugh at it. It's super funny.
Uh. But yeah, they're they'reright in this episode, like the even
even in sports, Like I waslucky to be working for a sports team,
(58:30):
and after all of this period oftime when the NFL took a lot
of heat for concussion stuff, everysport obviously kind of had to follow behind
and do the same thing. Butthey're they're pretty on top of it and
pretty tight about it. Now.When someone gets hit in the head,
it's like nobody wants to nobody wantsto get in trouble for it, and
(58:53):
no team wants to be the teamthat's on blast on on TikTok or YouTube
about someone getting there head drilled andnot taking care of it whatnot, especially
after all this stuff. Now.Of course, from a fan perspective,
I think we take away from thisepisode some of the biggest things that are
culturally referenced if you're a south Parkfan. Of course Celo Green singing It's
(59:14):
our cast, the ball song,and of course the Butter's Creamy goose stuff,
that whole storyline, that side storylineitself. I think it's referenced in
regards to just the comedic nature ofthis town of south Park, and then
the world itself that gets representative andgets wrapped up into monopolizing or trying to
capitalize on something and make money offof it even without doing any research.
(59:36):
And of course it comes down toRandy going this is come, which I
think I've said with Scoop multiple times, this is cos come when something doesn't
taste good. So, ladies andgentlemen, there you go. There's your
full recap. I thought this episodewas good. It's definitely like my top
one hundred, top one fifty ofsouth Park episodes. What do you think
as far as your top this daringit's the top half. Okay, yeah,
(01:00:01):
it's definitely in the top half asopposed to the bottom half. It's
HiT's on purpose, but it's alittle heavy on the sarcasm for me.
I know that's a funny thing tosay about an episode called sarcasta ball to
be expected. God, that amountof that amount of sarcasm must be tiresome,
(01:00:21):
or it could have been over thetop. Fund they could have just
been get to be dicks the wholeepisode and get to be sarcastic, So
there is that it could have beenan outlet for all their sarcasm itself,
right, kind of getting all thatinformation out there. He believes he's baking
a cake. Well, ladies andgentlemen, that's gonna do it. For
this edition of smb A South ParkReview, we'll be coming up next week
(01:00:44):
with raising the Bar. What happenswhen Cartman finally comes to the clusion that
you know what, he's fat.You know what, He's gonna get himself
a mobile scooter while the mess therest of the world seems to be losing
their mind as they're just putting overany never everything type of reality TV show,
and Tolkien, of course, islooking to capitalize on what happens when
(01:01:05):
James Cameron comes to town. Canhe save us? Find out next week
another nation of s mb A SouthPark Review. No no, no,
no, no, no no nono no, no no no no no no no
Another rendition of SMB a South Parkreview, or we break down on review
south Park for you in linear fashioneach and every week. And sometimes we're
serious, sometimes we're a little sarcastic. And this week the town of south
Park is sarcastic and it's going totake over the world. Is this is
(00:22):
Sarcastic Ball. It is the eighthepisode of season sixteen and the two hundred
and thirty first overall episode of southPark as at first September the twenty sixth,
twenty twelve. Ladies, welcome backto SMB number two hundred and thirty
four. All right, let's getinto it. South Park Elementary takes some
(00:47):
steps this week to address the Iguess the crisis that's happening in the National
Football League, and that being concussions. So the boys, Butters and Randy
are watching a game of football onTV when Stan tells his father a south
Park Elementary does not let them dokickoffs when they're playing football anymore, because
(01:07):
kickoffs are the most dangerous play infootball. This pisses Randy off, so
he goes to the ptaight meeting andthen Randy sarcastically suggests that the players should
just wear bras and tenfold hats thatthere should be a balloon instead of a
ball, and then the person whocatches the balloon can run for the others
player's hug, which he calls sarcasticball, and mister McKie goes, oh,
(01:30):
do you think the children were likethat? Okay, to be a
fair, Matt, have you seenI mean it is. It is the
most brutal play in all of sports. I'm not saying they should take it
out. I'm just saying the kickoffis it's literally two lines of giant humans
sprinting at each other as fast asthey can. Definitely, no, definitely,
definitely rich is funny hair. Ofcourse, Randy beans so sarcastic and
(01:53):
mister McKie taking the suggestions so seriously. And it's at this point now Randy
becomes the head coach of this newssport, the new elementary Sarcasta ball team.
However, the sport is going tobecome quickly popular. It's going to
replace football, and eventually it's gonnathrust Randy into the NFL as the head
coach of the Denver Broncos. Sowe'll jump into some clips here, give
(02:16):
you guys an idea of how thisepisode starts out here as a sarcasta ball
takes over the town. So westart off here with an NFL game,
and so they way they can ofcourse reference the examples of the barbaric nature
that is the NFL kickoff mar Toni'sJackson catches the ball. He's running down
(02:39):
the sideline. Oh ball, didyou see that? Head? Let's get
Randy. He's so stupid. It'sexciting. It's an exciting play. They
designed it just for us Americans.I know, right, did you see
that hurts boom? Jackson stopped atthe forty five and he is flow to
(03:00):
get up. That was a greathead boys. Remember that at practice tomorrow.
Yeah, Jackson took a real shot. And well, I'm not sure
what he's doing now, but itappears as always looking for his keys.
Dan. Yeah, and that doesn'tmake a lot of sense because ever since
his concussion in six you have alicense Coach Martin's coming over to tell him
that now, But Jackson appears tothink he's in a car driving home.
(03:20):
Well, during this time out,we're happy to be joined by the Commissioner
of the NFL, Rodger Goodell,Commissioner a lot of hoopla about concussions this
year in the NFL. How's theleague handling all that? So, of
course this was as they're referred there, and you can hear them alluding too.
This was when the NFL was gettingsome huge pushback on their concussion programs
and whatnot. Former NFL players suingthe NFL eventually did settle on a huge
(03:43):
settlement, but that was of coursedue part to the fact that the NFL
did not help the NFL players whileplaying football and then post football from the
I guess it would be the sixties, seventies all the way up until the
two thousands with any post medical likesymptoms that they were seeing from playing the
NFL. Of course, some playerstalked about being put back in the game
(04:04):
or putting themselves back into the gamewhen they know they shouldn't have been in
the game because they had a concussion. Well it's money, man, Like
they start a lifestyle and then theyit's like they're injured. They're told to
make a decision on whether or notthey're going to keep their job or not.
They're not thinking clearly and they're like, all right, let's let's let's
(04:26):
go play again. Stressful decision whetheror not to make money for your family
or not. They just jump rightback into it. That's a lot of
money. It's a lot of Ittalks, it talks, and it sometimes
helps you walk well. There certainlyare interesting statistics coming out, Dan and
we are deeply concerned and waiting tosee if there's really any direct correlation between
(04:48):
football and head trauma. Oh andit looks like some of the NFL alumni
are taking the field now. There'sall Pro safety Martin Gregor's and fullback Jim
Harris looks like his pants are downaround his ankles. Somebody should let him
know. Oh an old surehand,Mike tax the god that you bring out
the NFL players who they're clearly havingconcussions, syndromeing and barely do anything.
(05:11):
Go ahead. I actually want topoint out the part of it was that
actually they would so a lot ofguys would lose their health insurance if they
left the team. That's where theirhealth insurance lies like that, that's where
they got their treatment was from theteam. As you know, I'm not
a Dodgers fan, but I willsay not recently they have a player on
their roster just so that they canpay for his health insurance, but he
doesn't actually play for him, butthey do have him signed to several million
(05:34):
dollar contracts so that he can stillget medical benefits. So good on the
Dodgers. This is this is fuckingfunny. The NFL players walking around seemed
to be baking an imaginary cake.Dan yeah, meant to be a cake
or perhaps a loaf of bread,but he definitely thinks he's faking something.
(05:59):
Even okay, so as you know, even as as a head trauma uh
and put it in air quotes victimbecause I don'tuldn't. I wouldn't, I
wouldn't call myself that. But evento me that this is fucking funny because
just a look, I got iton mute here, but just to look
on his face there as he pullsout and he's like, but he smells
(06:20):
it and whatnot. That's so funny. He's all exciting about the bread or
me wishes that happened to me.Matt. If you don't know, I
actually got hit in the head withthe ball baseball in sports probably said it
in the past episode, but itdoesn't matter. That's that's still funny.
So funny. Here's him, explainingto Randy, Now they don't have the
(06:43):
kickoff anymore. I just don't getfootball. Get good? What's okay?
You don't suck at football, Butters, You suck at all sports. You.
Oh, Eric killed me. Ishould work at a time of sage
problem. He'll good at chicking.That's better, all Eric tells me.
I'm so good it sucking. Ishould work in type type parlor. Isn't
that read? Oh yeah, getit, butters. And with that,
(07:06):
the Browns are ready to kick itoff back to the Broncos. All right,
all right, here you go boys, watch them on the kickoff.
All right, special teams are themost important plays. We don't have kickoffs
anymore. Huh. The school saidthey're the most dangerous place, so they
don't have a ste them anymore.Wait wait, wait, way, whoa
what the he's so offended that theygot rid of the kickoffs? What the
(07:38):
fuck? Oh? Yeah, Idon't know how much that would fly,
you know, exciting? Yeah,that's I'm not even a football fan.
One of the most exciting things tosee is a guy return a kickoff for
a touchdown. That's that's good funright there. I mean, the NFL
has modified it in certain ways nowover the years to where like the kickoff
is a shorter time, or likelike the hitar kicks it shorter length,
(08:03):
so that way there isn't as muchtime for all the players to get in
place or run down the field withso much momentum. So they have tried
to modify it, if you will, for the safety of the players.
But yeah, it's still one ofthe most crazy plays that in the punt
return. Yeah it is. Iactually kind of do agree in a sense
not having children necessarily do a fullblown kickoff because getting getting those kinds of
(08:28):
concussions as a child, that's likeirreversible. Sure, you probably shouldn't be
doing that at that age. That'sthat's skip point I'm about no kickoffs.
Yes, we've decided to go withoutkickoffs because of the concerns raised over concussions.
Okay, oh yeah, we don'twant our kids getting hurt playing football.
But I think I have a wayto make it even better. Why
(08:48):
don't we have the players just wearbras. Yeah, the players should all
wear bras, and instead of helmets, they should wear little tinfoil hats because
you know, it's the future andwe shouldn't be so barbaric. It's the
future, and of course, andof course he's being sarcastic. But nobody
(09:09):
is picking on randy sarcasm throughout thiswhole episode. That's Randy's I guess,
his frustration, his problem this episode, no one's. He can't stop himself
from being sarcastic because nobody picks upon his sarcasm and calls him out on
his bullshit. Therefore, it continuesto happen, and it gets worse.
But let's see. But let's seewhat happens here is Randy talks himself into
(09:30):
a football coaching position. How wouldthe bras and tinfoil hats make it safer?
Oh, you're all not getting it. See, while we're at it,
we'll have a balloon instead of aball, and whoever catches the balloon
tries to run while all the otherplayers hug. You think the students would
love that, You think the studentswould like them. It's so weird.
(09:58):
It's so weird to feel fling ofsarcasm going right over someone's head when you
when you're the one being sarcastic,it's half of you is wants to laugh
at it, and half of youit's like frustrated and it's like it was
You're like, is this actually happening? The jarring feeling? Of course Rady
(10:22):
He says, yeah, I'm serious. Oh, they'd love it a sport
where safety is all that matters.How about we call it sarcast of ball?
Okay, would would you mind beingthe coach of the South Park Sarcastball
team? Jesus Christ, Yes,I would love to be the coach of
the sarcast of ball team? Yes, I would love to be the coach
(10:48):
team. I'm not picking up onhis sarcasm. There his how is his
wife not? She would know?Right? You would think Sharon would say,
be like, okay, Randy,that's enough. So here we go
next day now at back to SouthPark Elementary School with the boys and see
all just up in tinfoil bras andthey're gonna put you really have to wear
(11:11):
bras? Yes, Stan, thisis what people want. Don't worry.
You look really cool. What didI do with it? Oh? You
know, try to get it intothe end zone, but be really polite
about it. Okay, I'm meThis game was This game it's great.
(11:33):
It's built for butters. The Canadiansdude, the Canadian the national team and
the Olympics would dominate the Canadian where'sJoe Moran? Shout out to Yeah,
where's Joe Moran? Shout out toJoe. But yes, it definitely it's
all about being nice. So herecomes principal. Don't you know, how's
it going, coach? How's itgoing? Awesome? Nobody's getting hurt and
(11:56):
the kids are learning valuable life lessonsbecause hugging in safety is what the world
is all about. So you're happywith these changes? Happy? I'm thrilled.
Look at how much better this is? OOKI is football safe for your
kids? Concerned parent, Randy Marshsays, so this is I gets taken
(12:20):
further again. Randy still being sarcasticand everyone's taking him serious. Oh,
and it started a movement to reformthe sparts, gathering followers by the hundreds.
Oh, this is good. Nicefor you all to turn out in
record numbers to show your support forsarcastic ball, which Randy does point out.
(12:41):
That's a good point here. Peoplewon't come out to support things that
actually affect their day to day lives. Bills, you know, city ordinances,
you know events going on in theirtown's laws being created. But they'll
come out for sarcasta ball because entertainmentis the lifeblood of this cut tree,
don't you know you sarcast ball?Matt, Not really, not for that.
(13:03):
I would think it would be sarcastic. I think I'm I would look
at that and be like, that'sthe joke. If you go out,
you're the idiot because they're being sarcastic. It's like, I feel like the
joke is on you for showing up. Oh I'm showing up, baby.
What's the name with our kids gettingknocked onto ground and tackled. Let's make
(13:28):
sarcastball the official school sport nationwide.Go on, pat yourselves on the back,
showing just how much. Marge thenfound himself in front of the leaders
of Washington. This is gay.This is gay. This is the You're
(13:48):
gonna make my point here. Wegot a world, we got a war
going on, we got this goingon. But yeah, let's let's let's
change the football game. We said, yeah, let's do that. We
got an economy in the toilet,a big election coming up, but this
country's number one priority should be makingfootball safer. It should, it should,
(14:13):
and everybody agrees with them. Here, Obama, all the kids,
this is ridiculous. Are we reallygoing to go out there and play North
Park like this? I can't youremember if we're supposed to hug the full
back or compliment him. I'm soconfused. That's a good point, That
(14:39):
is a great Oh my, arethey supposed to help him? Are they
supposed to complment? I don't know. All right, let's jump ahead here.
His butter's gonna a heartwarming speech toprep his guys, pump him up.
We've been practicing and getting ready forthis game. You failies just want
to quit. We don't even understandhow this game is played. This great
game isn't about play. It's aboutsportsmanship and compassion. And when I look
(15:03):
around this lockeroo, when I seesome of the nicest, most compassionate guys
I've ever met. Token You're nicerthan anybody I know, the clay Will
you get better hugs than anyone outon that field with the victory? Because
we I love that reaction from theclat Will you get better hugs than anyone
(15:31):
out on that field? That's chair? Oh, We're just gonna let Newest
Park walk away with a victory.Because we think they know how to be
nicer than us, being niceest aboutwhat's inside you. When your enemy is
nice to you, you just benice right back, reach down and if
they give you two balloons, wellyou give them free. Yeah. And
when they try thank you for thoseballoons, you say, I don't need
(15:52):
any things. I did it becauseit was the right thing to do.
And then you give him a smile. Yeah. And when that other team
tries to come at you, whenyou got to reach deep down right there
to your creamy shiitrash please please,and Shady was well, gooey happy eleven
goose sis and you just got touse that to be the nicest, most
compassionate player you've ever been and letthe world know that we will not go
(16:14):
down. So cray, Yeah,this fucking butters, he's kind of all
motivated, even cart It almost intears, just was trying not to bust
up laughing in the middle of thatclip. Oh yeah, oh it's great.
You know that, you know,you know, this episode of the
podcast is starting with part part ofthat clip with the creamy gooey goodness Kidnes's
(16:40):
that's one of the so you actuallyyou had asked earlier. What my all
time favorite South Park episodes were I'mgonna go not episodes. I want to
say that's one of my all timefavorite south Park moments. Right there is
is Butter's doing the whole speech upthere with the creamy, gooey goodness.
Well, as I mentioned before,the NFL is gonna adapt this. So
here's Roger Goodell announcing they're changing tosarcastic ball football. Oh but why stop
(17:06):
there. Since football is so barbaric, we should change too. So let's
give a big welcome to the newcoach of the Denver Broncos, Randy Marsh.
So, of course Roger Goodell isbeing sarcastic. Randy's being sarcastic.
Everybody's being sarcastic now, but noone's picking up on it. Congratulations,
(17:30):
March, good job. Oh thankyou, commissioner. I'm thrilled to be
a part of this. Thanks.Nice going. Yeah, no, no,
you nice going. Hey, guys, how about a nice picture to
welcome in the future of sports?Okay, so now you go ahead.
Hold on, Matt, This isa brilliant play on the fact that everyone
(17:52):
involved in a lot of these thingsis completely full of shit and looking each
other. How many conversations do youthink happen in these worlds where people are
looking at each other dead in theeye and just knowing they're talking about some
straight up nonsense and just carrying theconversation on anyways. No, it's true.
They're just being nice for the sakeof being nice, and they both
(18:15):
know they're just like being full ofshit. Right, No, that is
true. So now here's the gameI believe. I want to say,
it's this game. It's see lowGreen is going to sing the song I
Love care the Ball. It's somuch better in football to the inaugural game
(18:36):
of the National Star Castaball League,as we bring you today's matchup between the
Denver Broncos and the Open Raider.Yeah, looking good, guys, Let's

(19:44):
song, of all your hit song. I'm a big fan of all your
hit song. Yeah, exactly.So I'm moving forward here into the episode.
Now, as you saw Butters,he you know, he motivated the
team, right and because of this, now Randy has of course left for
(20:06):
the Denver Broncos. This lifts leavesa spot at the head coach position,
and the boy realize that they wantButters to be their head coach. The
Butters takes over as the South Parkhead coach. That night, Butter has
a wet dream and saves his creamygoo, which is actually seamen. But
he's unaware of this because his fatheralways avoids answering what it is. His
(20:30):
father basically tells him it's his creamygoo, so Butter's collects it, thinking
it's something important that you retain.Yeah, let's jump now back into Butters
being convinced to take over the positionof the head coach for the sarcasta ball
football team taking professional sarcastaball really seriously, Well, we might as well call
(20:55):
up Blakewood and tell him we forfeit. We can't. We don't have a
coach, Kyle, who needs tocoach? We have Butters. Huh hey,
yeah, the guy is right.From now on, your team,
Captain, Butters, you lead usto victory. Hello, jeez, no,
no, I don't know flish,Butters. You understand this game better
than anybody. I can't be Ichuget anything not if this you don't.
(21:17):
What about that creamy filling you've talkedabout, that gooey goodness inside you that
makes you the butteriest Butters? Weknow this is funny. This is butter
response. I forgot about this.Ere there, it's over flowing to cage.
It's it's over flowing sometimes as tongue. That's funny, Butters, creamy
(21:47):
goo. So, as I mentioned, here's now Butters, that's asleep at
night, Butters bumud. Butters hasa wet dream from all the excitement,
mutters, yea too, Lady hishands girl Wendy from him in this tree.
The captain of sports teams leave himalone. Man. So here's that
(22:18):
creamy here's that creamy goo and hewakes up. Oh bad, it happened
more than that creamy goo came out. Oh well, uh, that's okay,
Butters. Remember what we talked about. Sometimes our happy creamy feeling just
gets so full it comes out atnight. I was having happy about a
(22:41):
girl, right, Butters, let'sit's happy feelings. Let's just not talk
about it. I mean, that'strue. Usually you don't talk about it.
That's going to come back and bitehim in the ass. It is
true, but he should have that'sright. I mean, the father should
explained what his body was going throughsexually. Otherwise, Butters just thinks it's
a That's why he goes and tellsan entire star cast ball team full of
(23:04):
people to let their creamy goo out, let their creamy okay dad, So,
of course Butters collects his creamy goo. Who say that for later?
That's he's got literally an entire likevile. He's got more than that vile,
(23:26):
right, he got a whole freakinglike fridge that we'll get to here.
So here's the NFL player start playingsarcastave. I see Peyton Manning with
the balloon there at the time playingfor the Broncos. And then you can
see Denver Broncos and Steelers players huggingeach other. Manning has the ball.
He's saying some really great things aboutthe other team. Manning met by Lamar
Woodley. He's giving the balloon toWoodley. The referee comes in. Oh
(23:51):
the referee is calling that a touchdown. Oh wait, now another official is
signaling that's a safety. Oh yeah, replacement refs there. Gonna have to
sort this one out with the sidejudge. It's a failed goal. Yeah,
fuck it? Just who cares?Cares? Fuck it? It's a
(24:15):
field goal, of course. NowRady marsh is gonna have the propost press
coffee here. Now after the game, coach, three to nothing victory over
the Steelers, you must feel likea real winner. Yeah, well,
the other team was just so awesomeon offense. I was really scared.
Coach Bilichick says, no way wecan beat the Broncos. They've had the
(24:37):
same coach for almost a day.Oh yeah, I'm just the guy who
invented Sarcastle ball. There's no wayI know how to coach it. Guess
we'll find out on Sunday. Yeah, all right, guys, listen up.
Forget about the day off. Weneed to practice tomorrow, practice on
Monday after a victory. Great,that's good, Peyton, but we need
(24:57):
to get better practice on That's justwhat I want to do. That's it.
We need to come in on aMonday and we need to practice.
Be more sarcastic and be more ofan asshole. Guys, how are you
doing yourselves here? Peyton? Manningwould be good at this. He's a
(25:18):
pretty nice guy, right. UhSo, following this scene here, Brandy,
of course, is confronted now bySharon Marsh who thinks something is wrong
with Randy's brain because he's so sarcastic. Cartman seeks Butter's help for tast the
ball. He's the coach that Buttersgives Cartman some of his semen, which
he thinks is his creamy goo.Cartman drinks the semen and thinks he feels
(25:44):
better. Oh well, then atthe south Park game has shown that everyone's
drinking butter seamen. And then Randyand Sharing go to the doctor where they
find out that Randy will always besarcastic. Randy, Randy, and the
doctor, both being sarcastic, comeup with the I take the money from
cant a other genetic disease research andmake commercials about how sarcasm might be bad
for the brain. Oh my gosh, as they take sarcasm here, all
(26:11):
right, so here, let's jumphere now and to Cartman having a conversation
with Butters about needing to find ascreamy goo. Because I'm no good at
sarcasta ball. I suck at beingnice and polite. I'm so good at
sucking. I should work at atime massage parlor. Oh no, Eric,
you're a great player. No,I just don't have the mojo you
(26:32):
have, Butters. Oh well,Eric, I told you everyone has a
creamy feeling inside and where all thefeelings of compassion and enjoy come from.
Oh din, your dadd It wouldkill you. Then I don't have a
dad. Oh right, yeah,I'm sorry. Well, everyone has a
creamy feeling, Eric, and somepeople have so much of that feeling,
and it comes out sometimes a lotof times when I go to sleep,
(26:55):
and especially if I'm having wonderful dreams, it make me feel really good.
What the gartment about his wet dreams? Here? I love how Butters is
always like ahead in the growing upphases, and the Yeah, it's so
funny how his he's it's weird.His personality, you would think the opposite,
(27:15):
But he's always looked slightly ahead ofthem, and all all these things
he encounters, the more adult likesituations more common than they do. Yeah,
exactly. Whereas the kids just endup being crazy over the top like
life threatening situations, Butters ends upin these sexual situations. He's he's like
hitting puberty way earlier than the restof them. Right, Sometimes I wake
(27:38):
up and win a wake up andwe like him, have metgoys come out.
Here's a lot of bik but italways makes you like keeping just in
case ever went out about my happysature had feelings, you save it all.
Okay, here's the disgusting part,Darren you were talking about is but
he's just going to show gartment hisuh, his semen bank that he's got.
(28:00):
Regor doesn't come out every night,but I sure do seem to have
the surplus of it. Boy,does he have a surplus of it.
Oh my goodness, it gets worse. Oh I know, but uh,
he's got a lot to come.Yeah, I don't know. I didn't
(28:25):
really wanted it that way. Okay, So this is what I mean.
This, that's impressive. He's achild. This is what I mean about
hitting puberty before the rest of them. Look at that closet. That is
a child. We're talking stockpiled.Of course I didn't realize it before.
Here's a here's Kurtman not drinking thegoop. Yeah, you get it,
(28:51):
Cartman. Hmm, it's kind ofa grapy bleachy flavor. Do you feel
woman can pass it? Oh?Shit, I think I do. Who
did Trey and Matt have to askwhat is come taste like to write that
line? I don't. I don'tknow, Okay, so go ahead.
(29:12):
I imagine they have a pretty goodstanding, like comedic relationship with their staff,
so it wasn't hard, I'm sure. So here is Randy now on
Jim Rome is burning when Jim Romewas a thing. As he's discussing sarcasta
ball. Welcome back to Rome.We're gonna talk to some sarcasta ball.
(29:32):
I can't wait. I can't waitto talk sarcasta ball because it's really compelling.
Joining me now is the coach ofthe Dinver Broncs and the inventor of
sarcasta ball, Randy Marsh thanks forcalling in, Randy. Really happy to
have you on the show. Yeah, it's awesome to be on your show,
Randy. First off, thanks fortaking a sport that we all love
and turning it into a sarcastic nightmare. Way to go, Thanks Jim,
(29:52):
because it's totally what I intended.You know, when I came up with
the idea, I was sure itwas going to end up like this.
Well, it certainly makes for anexciting game. About last night's nail bider
that ended zero to zero. That'sa game I want to watch twice.
That's a game I want to watchfour times. Check that I'll watch that
game five times. Good luck onSunday. I'm sure there'll be another game
that I could watch twelve times.Check that thirteen times. Thanks, Jim,
(30:15):
checked that thirteen. Check that thirteentimes. I have a hard time
watching a football game once thirteen.Wow. Wow. Here's as I mentioned,
Sharon now going to come to Randy, and they're going to come to
inclusion. He can't stop being sarcastichere, Randy. Aren't you going to
(30:36):
come join your family for dinner?Oh yeah, I've totally got time to
do that, Sharon. In fact, how about I go downstairs and make
a four course meal for all ofyou. Check that a seven course meal.
Randy, something's happened. Are youunable to stop being sarcastic? Oh
right, I can't stop being sarcastic. Now I'm telling you, Randy,
I think this sport is doing somethingto your brain. Right, it's doing
(30:59):
something to my brain. And nowI can't stop being sarcastic. Do you
mean that? Yes, I totallymean it. Help me, Sharon,
help me, Saren help all right, So here's us some more sarcastic ball
with the boys and billy boys.Oh, Carmen, you idiot, skate
(31:26):
budget guys. Cut up, cuddleup, cuddle up instead of huddle up.
Cuddle up, Billy. Now,what's going on after you? That
kid is but booking us. He'ssaying mean things to try and piss it
off. Yeah, we need moreof your mojo. Butters alloray, holoray.
Here you go. Cartman's bra islike twice the size of the rest
(31:48):
of theirs. That's funny, theyall drink. They're all drinking his creamy
goo like. Carmen actually has abigger bra than the rest of them,
and it doesn't make sense because hismom is probably the thinnest out of all
of them, so she probably haddoesn't isn't the packing like his Stan's mom
is, the one that we've seenin the past is usually what it's been
packing beep Beepkay. Okay, butCartman's got some pretty big titties himself.
(32:14):
That's fair. That's fair. Here'sRainy getting a X ray test on his
brain or what we call an MRImaybe. I'm like, yeah, yeah,
or s HU scan. I'm sorry, mister marsh, but there appears
(32:34):
to be permanent damage. Oh boy, this is great? What now that?
Never mind? Keep going okay,we just keeps getting better. How
do we fix this? Doctor?You don't, I'm sorry. There just
isn't enough research and how sarcasm affectsthe brain. So that's it. I
should just go home and forget aboutwhat this sport has done to me.
(32:57):
Let thousands of people place our castof ball and hurt too. Oh really,
you think there's a correlation between sarcasmand sarcasta ball. I liked this
that the doctor gets sarcastic here hegoes, Really, that's fascinating. Please
go on, No sarcasta ball hasnothing to do with it. I I
just really enjoy being sarcastic, andso I must be finding an excuse.
(33:22):
You know, I have a fiftyyear old Alzheimer's patient out in the waiting
room who can't even remember his family. But let's forget about him and focus
on how sarcasta ball might be deflatingpeople's brains. My son is out there
playing that game. It's heartwarming tosee you have such high regard for his
safety. Okay, well, I'vegot a better idea. Let's get all
(33:42):
the funding for cancer research and geneticdiseases. Let's take all that money and
make commercials that say, hey,America, sarcasm might not be such a
great thing for your brain. Now. Of course, this is a party
in the NFL at the time wasmaking commercials of balconcussions and stuff like that.
This is the joke. Oh mygosh, what do you mean the
dudes running at each other twenty milesan hour, you know, crashing into
(34:06):
each other. That's bad for yourbrain and your body. What I didn't
know that? That's crazy? Thankyou, doctor, Thank you so much.
Sharon still like baffled, like,but hell just happened here? I
(34:27):
don't. This is most of uslike just watching TV and sports news and
right uh so after meanwhile, aswe mentioned that being infronted and the doctor
about everyone is drinking, now,Butter Seamen Randy and sharing the doctor where
(34:49):
they find that Ring will always besarcastic. Randy the doctor, both being
sarcastic, come up with the ideato take the money from cancer and other
genetic diseases research and make commercials abouthow sarcasm might be bad for the brain.
Now. Soon after, Jim Romestarts recommending a new product for sarcast
the ball Butter's creepy new and weget a hershol and he had another stealth
party, Randy tries to stop Standfrom playing more sarcasta ball. After he
(35:13):
protests, Randy tells the crowd,trying to not be sarcastic, that sarcast
of ball should stop. And thenthen this leads to uh, Butter's telling
I'm sorry, Stand telling his dadto relax and drinks some of Putter's there's
creamy goo, and then Randy drinksit and goes this has come uh.
And then Butter's is confronted by hisparents and he becomes grounded for two and
(35:37):
a half months and a week,despite Butters having no idea what come is.
When asked, the father says hewill answer it when he gets older.
And then when Butter's falls asleeps hegets an erection, yells for his
father. Father tells him it ishis compassed and it's pointing out because it's
his friend. And then Butter's promptlytells his dad for telling it basically,
(35:58):
but it's from an erection. Hisdad says, it's his compass and which
is just his dad is his Hisdad is like the worst parent I've ever
you will ever see. Butter's dadis, Oh, it's so like from
the start of when South Park started, all the way to the end.
Butter's dad is, which is horrible. He's a menace, a menace.
(36:21):
Yeah, so here's Jim Roman.There's an energy to get me through a
game. That's when I reached fora bottle of this butters Creamy Goo.
You play hard, you need asports drink that gives you that extra boost.
Sports these days are all about beingnice, So take your game to
the next level. With Butter's CreamyGoo. You'll be filled with feelings of
good tidings and be nicer than aray of sunshine. Get with it and
(36:45):
get we'll rewind that here it isa gain game to the next level.
With butters creamy goo, you'll behis arms. Here's now throwing in his
face. Still the feelings of goodtidings would be nicer than a ray of
(37:06):
sunshine. Get with it. Thebutter's creamy coup is chalk full of all
the essentials. And athlete needs commitment, compassion and combroadery. And now it's
available in court signs disparts, thevest with disparads, the vest with tom
Rady drinks like a full big BobGatorade. That here we go. When
(37:30):
I get hot and tired, onlyone thing can boost my compassion. Now
back in the game, go andchrag about all about his creamy g that's
sir, just about room temperature.Male. But go back to that frame.
(37:52):
I don't know if you get thatframe right there at the end of
the coach. Now back in thegame, go and chrg a bottle about
that served just above room temperature.Oh, that's so that last frame though
with the coach the getting. Nowback in the game and track a bottle
(38:28):
that's one of the funniest scream Captainsouth Park. I swear to God when
he was drawing that part of theanimation right there with the face, I
would have I would have printed oneof these and like put it on someone's
wall in the office or something inthe morning. Here you go, that's
(38:51):
just about room temperature. All right. So now we're at the football game.
As I mentioned, Rainy's gonna gethis sons stand to stop playing Castle
because he has become victim of sarcasmand does not want this menacing, you
know, mental anguish to be uponsus being startok sarcastic fry do you?
(39:21):
Oh no that I forgot about thatpart. No you didn't. Randy just
show takes out a kid on thefocall field ship. I forgot about that
me too, because it comes intonowhere. It's so fast and so fast.
(39:46):
He doesn't say any Why didn't beone? Oh no? That d
stop? Okay, stand Dad,get in the car, stan we're going
(40:08):
home. We're sorry, Stanley,we don't want you playing this sport anymore.
They get off the field. Good. I don't he's gonna give a
heartfelt feature about sarcasm. I'm notgonna play all of it, but here's
a snippet of it. Nobody saidanything about the kid getting ran over,
but nobody cares about the kitchen.Nobody, nobody if the we should have
(40:31):
every kid playing. Sorry, sorry, hang on, gotta not be so
sarcastic. Let me try that again. Listen to everyone. If you let
your kids play sarcast of ball,you're a ingenius cut Sorry, try this
again. Look what I'm trying tosay is we should have like ten sarcasta
(40:54):
ball leagues, because then everyone,God damn it, Stanley, just get
your thing and come on, we'regoing home. Well, you can't tell
me what to do. Yeah,we're your parents. We can't tell you
what to do. Don't you seewhat this sport has done to your father?
Do you want to end up likehim? Oh? Right, Like
he doesn't exaggerate every disease he gets. Oh, Randy, what's happening.
(41:17):
Randy's so worried about this. Hejust ran a kid over with his car,
and this whole time, he's soworried about the kid. Yeah no,
you no, you're It's a goodpoint. So stands, of course
and tell his dad to chill outand drink some Butter's creaming gooseport that has
no violence. Is it's so hardfor you to believe that. When Butter
says competitiveness can be compassionate, he'sbeing completely sincere don't see how anyone could
(41:42):
play this game with any sincerity.That's because you're too grumpy and negative to
believe it. What you need isa sports drink to can boost your levels
of caring and goodness. Yeah,d you need some of this. Randy,
of course, is going to takeMichael stuff. Here comes, Randy
takes a drink and then he goesthis is come gulping. Go back and
(42:15):
listen to the gulping sound effect.It's I'm sure you don't want to,
but this is come and you canjust sit here in your room and think
about what you've done. Just becausepeople try and make football a little safer
(42:37):
by changing a kickoff rule doesn't meanyou need to take it to Oh,
why don't we just drink each other'scalm. Sarcasm like that is homophobic,
chauvinistic and completely lacking in maturity.Any questions, what sarcasm and what's come?
We talk about that when you're older. Come on, everybody, let's
work on that kickoff change and getback to some football. You got him
(43:00):
into this mess, sir, Wait, you didn't tell him what it was?
And the tault Yeah, like Isaid, worst dad of all time,
Like poor Butters, like what hewould be so psychologically damaged at already
at this point in his life witha dad liked that. Butters is like
(43:20):
the mentally strongest human being ever becausehe got is not told why there was
creamy goo coming out of him inthe middle of the night for no reason,
told him his dick was a compassand and got ye yelled at by
the person that told him that he'sabout to tell him about the compass thing
he hasn't told him yet. Butyes, overall for the episode, yes,
(43:42):
he's a bad piece of show.No, I just mean like total
his childhood total, Like his dadjust like has fucked with him so much
and then he just in a constantstate of fucking with him and then grounding
him for not knowing better. Sohere's so, here's the episode. Now
wrapping up as Butter is gonna belistening to the Jim Rome Show. Welcome
(44:06):
back to Rome. Some of youmight have seen me on TV last night.
Turns out the drink I endorsed withsemen. Turns out a little kid
was just being sarcastic. That kid'sprobably grounded for a month. Check that.
I'm sure he's grounded for two monthsand a week. Football needs to
be made safer. So why don'twe have players in bras drinking semen.
Yeah that's a fastball right there.That's a real stroke of philosophic genius.
(44:30):
Wore little kids drinking semen to finallybring back real football. And I don't
know what else to say, butso long, sarcasta ball. It was
nice knowing you. Let's just hopenothing like this ever happens again. Probably
won't not for another year. Checkthat a couple of days now dead.
Hey did what mar readers are stiffenputty? Oh well, butters, that's
(44:54):
just the friendly compass. See,whenever you have friends in the area,
you are a little compass there tellsyou where they are. It's pointing up
because Jesus is your friend. Fiftywow, just wow, thanks Dad,
it's pointing up because Jesus is yourfriend. Darren, it's Jesus as your
(45:15):
friend. All right, Well,I got better better get down on my

(47:37):
at suck my Balls Odd at gmaildot com. So Adelaide sent us
into medicine, Jade said, ohmy god, Dane, you know,
the last time someone yelled at mefrom a car, they said nice bush.
And this is course referencing the factwhen they were being yelled at out
of a car. Well, Ican't repeat the words, but it's the
(47:59):
homosexual sir. I completely bent andsnapped and gave face. Hahaha. Ug
bullies. You know, it's sosad because my grandma and of course she's
now referring to the episode of Buttersand His Grandmother, Lord bless her.
When she got dementia, Oh my, she would say things like, oh
my god, did you just missmy pie hole? And vomit. I
still need to watch the obesity episodebefore I listened to you guys review,
(48:22):
but oh my god. Toward theend of my grandma's life, she would
yell, who the fuck are you? Why are you so fat? Why
you stink? Who are you?Where's my cereal? Love her so much
though she was absolutely the best humanbeing beforehand, anyone who put it in
your fucking mouth. That's such agruesome scene. I can taste the salt
on my tongue. Bullying in thebathroom, such fertile ground for seating power
(48:44):
dynamics infused with body fluids. Slurp. And then she continued on by saying,
and Billy Bucker, oh sorry,and Billy Bucky's Bailey Bully Bopper Buckers
be trifling. Oh my god,this anti bullying video is everything. And
I think this comes from these videos, and she cited a bullying video that
documentary Dan mentioned Bully Scook Betta goJacket in San Diego for giving us all
(49:07):
the trivia fall asslee because trivia hedid finally do it? Did you guys
just reference that old French language learningcommercial? We did? And she says,
me and my sister loved trying tomimic that commercial. But to make
a long story short, Butter's riseabove domestic violence and standing his ground is
reassuring and motivating. Take care ifyou're gonna go zipe, remember to bring
(49:30):
a towel. Thanks Adelaide, ThanksAdelaie, And I actually have a question
for you, Adelaie. I gotone back for you. Are you from
Australia by chance, because there isa beautiful town in Australia called Adelaide.
Curious there's any relation there. Idon't know. I don't know if that's
necessarily the case, but Adelaid sendyour feedback, Darren wants ladies, Jared,
(49:52):
you can send your feedback and beheard right here if you send it
like I said, suck my BallsPod at gmail dot com, south Park
Podcast on int or you can sendus a direct message on x, Twitter
or whatever you want to call itat south Park Pods with an ass.
So we're also at south Park Podon Facebook. You can join us at
the south Park Fan south Park FanClub group on Facebook, the largest south
(50:16):
Park fan group in the world.So come on down, hang out,
let me make some friends today.All right, let's go ahead and well
let's get into some ladies and gentlemen. Of course, I am not the
two thousand and twenty two Red RocksDay one south Park Trivia champion. I
(50:39):
am not a doctor of economics,puconomics, polyphonics and scupinomics. I am
not a trivia god like Joevernla,but I'll do my best. Kenny appears
to be unhooded in the locker roscene, but is hooded again throughout the
episode. It's interesting much of thisepisode was inspired by the fact that the
NFL had change its kickoff rules overthe past two years to try and reduce
(51:02):
injury. If I mentioned in theepisode, Randy Marsh's uniform is different from
the one seen in the national previewof the episode of the trailer. At
the time, the twenty twelve UnitedStates presidential election was ongoing, which was
referenced here by Randy Marsh but goinginto puberty as he has experienced no emissions
(51:23):
directions which does make senses. Lateron he will go to Hawaii. This
is the first episode to air inthe month of September since the episode cow
Days, which was back in nineteenninety eight. And finally, Invesco Field
at Mile High one of several namesthat the Denver Stadium was portrayed a now
(51:44):
known as in Power Field at MileHigh. Of course, this goes through
diffic naming rights, complicated naming rights, but usually just comes down to who
has the most money. Contract comesup and a bunch of different companies bid
to have their name on the stadium. Ladies and gentlemen, that's your trivia.
All right, I'll get into someculture. Dane Becker's not here,
(52:08):
but let me read him up foryou. Lamar Woodley, an American football
player, tweeted that he would bein this episode. The Jim Rome CBS
network was featured using news beat throughoutthis episode. Of course, Jim Room
is seen to be returning repeating thephrase, which is something he has known
for when he is being sarcastic andhe's trying to fill up airtime. Referenced
(52:30):
in this episode cee Lo Green,an American rapper and singer who was ridiculed
for singing the John Lennon song ImagineBadly on New Year's Eve in twenty twelve.
After se Lo green sarcastic ball performance, one fan says, I'm a
big fan of all your hit song. This is a quarre for the pop
artist twenty ten single Forget You,that had excessive radio play at the time.
(52:52):
Nannious geen, No, I'm justkidding, app that that song a
shy cat the ball. It's waybetter than football. It's the run down
tam and when out of and I'mnot forgetting that song. Uh this.
(53:15):
There are also several celebrities as wemet I know. There are also several
celebrities, as we mentioned, canbe seen drinking Butter's creamy goo. That
of course included Lance Armstrong, TomBrady, Blaine Gabbert, and Jim Rome.
This episode for references controversies over theconcussions in football and growing issues at
the time that led to thousands offootball filers footballers file suits against the NFL
(53:39):
reference that as well. And finally, as you can see later on the
app, Wolverine from the X Mencomment can be seen as a tat one
of the football players and ladies andgentlemen. That is your pop culture.
All right, let's go. We'llfinish this out out here with some storyline
(54:01):
continuity. In the commercial for CreamyDew, Butters out through a hole saying
like me, which is a mansimilar to how he said that's me.
In Butter's Very Own episode from seasonfive, Butters seems to have forgotten what
erection are, even though he haspreviously explained to them and to Jimmy Volmer
in the season nine episode Erection Day, Butter's tap shoes can be seen in
(54:24):
his closet when Carpon when they're lookingover his collection of goo of course,
they can be seen on the topshelf in a box that says tap shoes.
This is a reference to the episodeYou Left in the a. Butter's
Professor kios helmet and necklace are alsoin the closet, and Butter's T shirt
that he wore when he was avampire kid in the im groundabole can also
(54:45):
be seen in the closet. Thenecklace where he wears as he uses a
when he's a pimp, and Butter'sbottom bitch can also be seen Butter's closet.
Finally, here stands common at theend of the episode about his father
always exaggerate any illness he gets asa reference to hypopogia, which, of
course Randy showed that in the alcoholepisode Bloody Mary and Nicole's Parents. Cartman
(55:07):
finds love or scene at the PTAmeeting with all the other parents, which
she just debuted, and then Butterswas able to ejaculate for the first time
in Little Crime Stoppers, where Cartmanforced him to pull on his wiener to
release a semen sample and Ladies andGentlemen, that is your references to storyline,
continent, pop culture, and trivia. Darren tell me, sir what
(55:30):
would you like her to just thinkabout this episode? You know, you
wouldn't really think so from someone who'sbeen hitting the head, but definitely when
the NFL players are on the field, that can cussed NFL players and he
seems to be baking an imaginary cakeor whatever the commentator says immediately after,
(55:52):
like it's obviously not how it actuallyis. But immediately after the guy gets
hit the first guys, he thinkshe's driving home, so good. Yeah,
I liked the I mean at thetime, of course, and I
think even until this day, youknow, concussions are now taken more serious
(56:15):
when it comes to sports. Atthe time, I would people were learning
about it. Yeah, I feellike it was finally being spoken up more
from former athletes, and the sciencewas now supporting said data that showed that
these athletes itself had suffered you know, life altering injuries to their brain from
said sport, and they were notbeing even supported in the medical fashion for
(56:37):
so long that they all got togetherand sought to get reparations in regards to
their union, you know, abilityto cover their medical needs. And you
know, obviously with them being inthat situation, they couldn't go on to
a lot of them couldn't go onto have normal lives, regular jobs because
of the after effects of it.So I liked that they talked about that
(56:58):
in a comical way. These abilityto turn it into a another game through
sarcasm. Yeah, well it's okay, jokes aside. I will have to
say that what they do say inthis episode is one hundred percent true.
I gat there's but there's nothing themedical industry will ever do to catch up
with the fact that it'll change yourlife forever. That's why doctors you typically
(57:22):
tell people that have been through thatyou kind of have to move on.
Hence me just laughing at that jokeand not really caring too much about the
rest of it. There it's stilllike this. The medical industry is not
set up to support concussions, andthe entire world is still incredibly misinformed on
how concussions work. I cannot evenexplain how much through because I didn't get
(57:47):
brain damage through my concussion. Imean, I got hitted over one hundred
miles an hour in the head,so I got it's fair to say that
it was a significant head injury,but I didn't have brain damage. But
the second tell anybody that you've beenhitting the head there immediately thought their immediate
thought is like, oh, theperson's dumb. Now they have they have
(58:07):
brain problems, which is why maybeat first, when this had happened to
me, I probably wouldn't have foundthis joke as funny with the football players
on the field with some distance,like, yeah, okay, you don't
take it as seriously. I canlaugh at it. It's super funny.
Uh. But yeah, they're they'reright in this episode, like the even
even in sports, Like I waslucky to be working for a sports team,
(58:30):
and after all of this period oftime when the NFL took a lot
of heat for concussion stuff, everysport obviously kind of had to follow behind
and do the same thing. Butthey're they're pretty on top of it and
pretty tight about it. Now.When someone gets hit in the head,
it's like nobody wants to nobody wantsto get in trouble for it, and
(58:53):
no team wants to be the teamthat's on blast on on TikTok or YouTube
about someone getting there head drilled andnot taking care of it whatnot, especially
after all this stuff. Now.Of course, from a fan perspective,
I think we take away from thisepisode some of the biggest things that are
culturally referenced if you're a south Parkfan. Of course Celo Green singing It's
(59:14):
our cast, the ball song,and of course the Butter's Creamy goose stuff,
that whole storyline, that side storylineitself. I think it's referenced in
regards to just the comedic nature ofthis town of south Park, and then
the world itself that gets representative andgets wrapped up into monopolizing or trying to
capitalize on something and make money offof it even without doing any research.
(59:36):
And of course it comes down toRandy going this is come, which I
think I've said with Scoop multiple times, this is cos come when something doesn't
taste good. So, ladies andgentlemen, there you go. There's your
full recap. I thought this episodewas good. It's definitely like my top
one hundred, top one fifty ofsouth Park episodes. What do you think
as far as your top this daringit's the top half. Okay, yeah,
(01:00:01):
it's definitely in the top half asopposed to the bottom half. It's
HiT's on purpose, but it's alittle heavy on the sarcasm for me.
I know that's a funny thing tosay about an episode called sarcasta ball to
be expected. God, that amountof that amount of sarcasm must be tiresome,
(01:00:21):
or it could have been over thetop. Fund they could have just
been get to be dicks the wholeepisode and get to be sarcastic, So
there is that it could have beenan outlet for all their sarcasm itself,
right, kind of getting all thatinformation out there. He believes he's baking
a cake. Well, ladies andgentlemen, that's gonna do it. For
this edition of smb A South ParkReview, we'll be coming up next week
(01:00:44):
with raising the Bar. What happenswhen Cartman finally comes to the clusion that
you know what, he's fat.You know what, He's gonna get himself
a mobile scooter while the mess therest of the world seems to be losing
their mind as they're just putting overany never everything type of reality TV show,
and Tolkien, of course, islooking to capitalize on what happens when
(01:01:05):
James Cameron comes to town. Canhe save us? Find out next week
another nation of s mb A SouthPark Review. No no, no,
