of South Park, first airing on October third, two thousand
and eighteen. My gosh, boys, you know what that means.
This is SMB number two ninety two. So close we are.
(02:06):
We are just about two months away from episode three hundred.
Joe says, we make his commute to work tolerable. Well,
we're glad we can do that for you, buddy. God
there we can. Oh check it out. Who's here now, Revamp?
Speaker 3 (02:23):
What's up?
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Revamp for wrestling? Wait a minute, that looks like your
old channel. Did you get your old channel back? Did
they give you back the channel? Because that would be remarkable.
A boy is priest, second episode of season twenty two.
This is SMB two eighty nine. I'm sorry, SB two
and eighty ninth overall episode. Gosh, I'm already off here
and day priest? Yeah, not his priest. A boy and
(02:48):
a priest, that's right. The town finds the church doors
locked up and there's no sign of butters or the pasture.
I'm sorry, Revamp. I thought you did because you just
had reg revent wrestling, so I don't know, my bad.
Uh So the Marsh family leave for church here to
start this episode, stand this cast from being shot in
(03:08):
the previous In the previous episode, he's got in the cast,
you know, because he got shot. He's annoyed about having
to go to church every Sunday. Sharon and Randy discuss
how much better they feel when they go to church,
so they arrive at church with the other townspeople. They
all act friendly to each other, with Randy holding the
door and even filling pity for a woman who's missing
(03:29):
the sermon inside. Father Maxie begins his sermon, speaking about
what God has to give us. He's interrupted many times
by adults heckling him with Catholic priest jokes and laughing
at each other. Maxie tries to calm them, but he fails.
But he is bullshit, man, It's bullshit up Joe's hot,
(03:53):
So Joe.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Why is it?
Speaker 4 (03:55):
Why is it only the Catholics? Cat? Why is it
only the Catholics sketching this ship? Why?
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Why?
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Because if you read the headlines and everything else, it's
a it's Southern Baptist, It's every fucking sect of Christianity.
You can probably find some Muslims that fuck boys as well,
but no, it's only Catholicism that gets made fun of.
Why why explain it to me? Is it because we've
only had one Catholic president and everything else? It's all
(04:20):
like some Southern Baptist shit, Like, come on, someone explain
it to me. Explain it to me, like I'm five, no, no,
no one nothing, fuck everyone.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
It's not just Catholics, Mike drop, you know. And with that,
let's open some clips here on another edition smb A
South Park Review. Here's the marshis getting ready to leave
for church.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
We don't want to be late. Do I have to go?
Speaker 5 (04:56):
It's the only day I get to play games.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
We're all going.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
Come on, don't understand why we have to go to
church every Sunday.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Church is important, stand way more important than video games
and TV. Church is about community, coming together a lot
of things. All I know is that after church I
just feel better. Yeah, meet too, meet too.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
So they arrive here. Townspeople are all walking in now
and inside the church.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Gosh, he's slipped her disc in her neck. Poor thing
can barely move. She sent to miss church. That's too bad.
Give her my best.
Speaker 6 (05:33):
For God so loved the world that he gave his
only begotten son so that whoever believed in him should
have eternal life.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
This is the Gospel of the Lord.
Speaker 6 (05:43):
Today's gospel talks about what the Lord has to give us.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
He did so because we.
Speaker 7 (05:49):
Could not control our temptations, kind of like a priest
and a room full of naked boys.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Okay, okay, let's let's try and have none of that today.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
In John three sixteen, the gospel tells us how God
so loved the.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
World he gave to us his only son.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
And a Catholic prieste raped him.
Speaker 6 (06:10):
Okay, come on, guys, now, what greater gift could the
Lord have given.
Speaker 5 (06:15):
To us children's underwear which priests couldn't pull down so easily?
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Okay, ourselves?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
All right, So you get the point there, you get
the point. You get the point in general. But connecting
people with the wrestling says, these are some aggressive noises
for his heroes, and yes, Adelaide very rude, very very rude. Indeed,
So now the adults all leave at the end and
(06:43):
laughing at the jokes they just told. They're in the
car stand questions the point in the jokes, describing it
as stupid. Rannie rates him saying comments like that will
make him go to hell, and then back of the church,
Buttters comes to visit the upset priest and he explains
that he knows how it feels to be bullied and
explains Maxi needs to just put himself out there. While
(07:06):
that happens at game night. Now at the Marshal's house,
the boys are playing Western Legends. Butters comes in, bringing
Maxie with him to play the game. Confused, starts playing,
but is disturbed by his Bible quotes. Butter's attempts to
make Maxi look good by mentioning his singing hobby, but
they are spotted by Randy, who starts ridiculing Maxi. Maxie
(07:28):
then leaves, with Butters coming after him, leaving Cartman to
question who invited Butters to game night. And then outside,
Butters catches up to Maxi to try and make him
feel better about himself, and he tells Maxi that if
people want to hurt him, fuck him. So let's jump
back into some more clips. Jump ahead here to the
(07:48):
next scene as they.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Leave Boy's mouth, I'm gonna post that one for sure.
Speaker 7 (07:53):
Who said the thing about naked boy salad?
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Well, see you next week.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
I like to go to church to make fun of
the sky.
Speaker 5 (08:03):
I really don't understand the point of all that.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Yeah, well I used to think that about church when
I was a kid too, But.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
Back then I don't know if church was that stupid.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Hey, don't say things like that, Stan, you want to
go to fucking hell?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Ye, Now, father Maxie Butters comes to visit him, walks
in because you can hear there, he's just sighing. Butters, Now, fata.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
Can I talk to you?
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Oh, of course, my child. What's troubling you?
Speaker 5 (08:40):
Well, what's troubling you? You know, at school the kids
used to all make fun of me. Sometimes one kid
would say something to mean and then the other kids
would laugh. I know how any feels.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
You know how it feels.
Speaker 5 (08:56):
I learned to just walk away, not give him all
the satisfaction.
Speaker 6 (09:00):
Well, we can't all walk away, but the priest took
us all I know.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
That's all I know.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
Is dedicated my entire life.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Entire life, Joe, I don't know anything else.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
I know what I thought I'd be a punching bag
my whole life now. I mean, I'm one of the
popular teach I even standshouse.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
One of the popular kids, one of the popular kids.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
Oh man, he brings it, but like MAXI brings up
a really good point here that like I don't think
always get like jeezu o, I've dedicated my whole Like no,
he really has. Like going to seminary is like the
(09:48):
decision you make usually in like your mid teens, early
mid teens, late teens, because then you got to go
to college for it and then you actually have to
go to seminary and everything. So by the time, like
so you got a guy like Maxie who looks like
he's in his forties or fifties, and that's like, you know,
(10:10):
a good like twenty five thirty five years on top
of whatever you know he was doing in church before that,
Like like when they say it's a man of God,
like you know in a case like Maxie, where you
know he's not doing anything wrong and he's just preaching,
and that is like the definition of a man of God.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
There you go, that is the definition.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
It's it's just something that you gotta kind of like
oh where you know, like no man really had like
can you like can any of us, like would any
of us really take a valid celibacy for anything, let
alone God?
Speaker 1 (10:55):
And why does father father MAXI have a square head
for Canadian for Canadian? There you go. Uh so now
at game night?
Speaker 5 (11:06):
Oh there's Butters. Hey, fallies, I hope you don't mind.
I brought a friend.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Come on in a hello my children?
Speaker 5 (11:15):
H okay, So I guess I'm gonna go to the
saloon and try to arrest cartman. Let's see what you got, bitch.
Father is a really good singer. You like to sing too,
don't you? No?
Speaker 6 (11:27):
Praise the Lord for the Lord is good? Saying praise
to his name for that?
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Just pleasant? Hey, Stan, have you seen my Randy?
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Now?
Speaker 2 (11:41):
No way, hang on, hang on, I gotta post this.
I shouldn't be here. This is hilarious. Four boys in
a breeze playing your board game. Father, I should go no, no, no, wait,
look at the picture.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Father.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
H shit, I missed it.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
Why did you invite Butters to game night? I didn't
invite him?
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Come on? Uh all right? So? Uh as I mentioned
Butters runs after priest Maxie, You're.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Gonna make things way worse. People will rip on me.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Who cares? Who cares what people say I do? Oh?
Speaker 3 (12:21):
Come on, you gotta be strong.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Why do you care?
Speaker 5 (12:25):
Because I was you?
Speaker 7 (12:27):
Okay?
Speaker 5 (12:28):
I wasn't always cool. I'd been through it. But then
one day somebody told me something. He said, life is
full of love and life impactable things. And you know
who told me that you did two years ago in church.
You have a right to go and be happy. And
if people want to keep trying to knock you down,
where fuck him?
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Damn you tell them, Butters, you tell them, well, a
game are now. Next Sunday, the townspeople riv at church,
once again being positive and friendly, but when Randy tries
to open the door, already finds it locked, leaving the
townspeople to worry. Waters comes out of the church and
its subject your ridicule. He tells everyone there's no church
(13:07):
and slams the door back in the marsh car. The
parents are upset about not being able to ridicule the
priest and Shelley questions why this is a big deal
and is yelled at by Randy. And while that's going on,
Maxim Butters are sitting around a campfire toasting marshmallows. The
two are happy and become friends, and montage has shown
the two doing various activities together while Faith in Christ plays,
(13:28):
and these activities vary from walking around and rowing to
watching movies and playing. Some of these activities are seen
by the townspeople, who look on confused.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
Even Rocky had a montage, Mota.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
That's right, Even Rocky had a freaking montage.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
All right.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
So here's Randy as he walks up. Scoop, you there,
are you muted? Might be muted right now?
Speaker 2 (13:54):
All right?
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Well, Scoop, whenever you're there. I like this graphic. Then
it's pretty cool. All right. So here is Rainy walking out. Huh,
skips con.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Better, hun, Josie a lot better? Thank you?
Speaker 5 (14:09):
All right?
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Huh?
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Faith plus one it's not open.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Let me try.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
And now they all try to get in at o'clock.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Right, what's going on?
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Oh, Lock, Butters.
Speaker 5 (14:32):
There's no church today. You all are just going to
have to find him better to do.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Okay, they opened the door, thank god.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
So now they're pissed.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
This sucks. What are we supposed to do without church?
Speaker 5 (14:49):
I just feel so empty?
Speaker 1 (14:51):
What do you get?
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Shut up.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Now, Father Maxim Butters fresh nice.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
I have to admit.
Speaker 6 (15:01):
It's a pretty nice way to spend a fun day.
How many are your works? Lord in wisdom? You made
them all?
Speaker 1 (15:10):
It's pretty cool, he is, all right, let me mute
this you that's probably copyrighted here. So as you can
see here, Father Maxie and Butters they're looking at a bird.
Here they're rowing a boat. And this is all while
that song is playing. It starts pawing. Nice little upgrade.
(15:31):
Here they show us. And now we see Butters and
Father Maxie is sitting on the bench and he puts
his arm around and then he puts his hand on
his leg. That's disgusting. It continues on. They're in a
(15:57):
movie theater eating popcorn. And here's what I was saying.
Here comes the rest of the townspeople. Now they're looking
on and they're like, what is going on here? And
then we see Butters here in Prince Maxie on the
swing set, and the boys look very confused, and they
keep walking like, you know what, we're not even gonna
(16:17):
touch this. And Maxie and Butters then continue on and
they sing and they look at Bible verses together, and
he gets again see a guy behind them looking as
Butters plays Professor Chaos. It's like Father Maxie, but he's
never had a friend or something. I don't know, a
little disturbing, little disturbing indeed. All right, So now at
(16:43):
the arch how do you pronounce this archdiocese? The Archdiocese
of Denver. The archbishop gets a call from mister Mackie,
who informs him that the priest has gone missing. The
archbishop believes he means the priest has run off with
some boys and calls the Catholic clean up crew sort
them out. At Kid's Own Roller, Rank Clyde is having
(17:05):
a party to celebrate his birthday. Butter's comes in, bringing
Maxie with him. Clyde as angry as he doesn't want
to priest at his party. Butter's guides Maxie through how
to skate as the other partygoers watch on confused. This
is a really weird episode, Joe, It really is.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
It also feels like it was a few years too late,
like this should have been like this is twenty eighteen.
This feels like it's almost twenty years too late. But
that's kind of putting the cart before the horse as
far as his podcast go. But yeah, it's it's just
(17:43):
oh weird. I'll just have a hard time.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Get through this review, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
It's not supposed to be a very comfortable, yeah episode,
like they're going out of their way to make it uncomfortable,
even though there's actually nothing the sinister going on between
Maxie and and Butters. It's but it.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Yeah, Clyde is.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
But it is a weird episode. Clyde is not the
master debate or everyone's turning into Cartman.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
It's not fair, not fair, that's true. Of course we're
talking about Go get a nut. I got a nut.
The latest episode South Park, season twenty seven, episode number two.
Speaker 4 (18:38):
And for the record, the real Catholic cleanup crew is
known as the Mafia or La Cosa Nostra. Oh damn,
all right, good more do you know.
Speaker 8 (18:54):
Denver arch Diocese, The Lord with you and with your spirit.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
My name is Counselor Mackie, and we seem to be
having a little problem with our local church here in
South Park. Our uh, our priest has gone missing.
Speaker 8 (19:09):
Oh not another one? All right, listen to me carefully.
Your local priest has not done anything wrong, probably just
taking some time off.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Why is that suspicious, Well, it's not suspicious. We just
kind of don't know what to do. You know, she'll
take care of it.
Speaker 8 (19:24):
There's no need to involve the authorities. Just sit tight,
sending a cleanup crew.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
Now, all the conclusion jumping, We've.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Got another one.
Speaker 8 (19:36):
Breston South Park is gone rogue and it's probably out
doing his thing. I need you guys to get up
there and clean up his mess.
Speaker 7 (19:44):
Don't worry your holiness. By the time we're done with
that town, there won't be a lick of calm anywhere.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
Oh my gosh, that's just dirty. All right, So Butters,
now I hope you don't mind. I I rob Maxie.
Speaker 6 (20:01):
For we are God's handiwork created in prist Jesus to
do good works.
Speaker 5 (20:07):
What are you talking about?
Speaker 3 (20:09):
Get out, let's don't care.
Speaker 9 (20:10):
At the skating rink.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
I think this song is probably gonna be copyright.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
It is, Yeah, Flashlight is definitely copyright.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
So Clyde's not very happy. As you can see, they're
on the skating rink and now we see, well Butter's
here teaching Priest Maxie how to skate. It's kind of
weird that they're having this at a at a birthday party.
Speaker 5 (20:35):
Nobody scaring killed.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
You get nil with the other bet, you.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Just mingle with the other fellows. Yeah, it's like almost
like they're dating or something, but they're being friends. It's
just a very disturbing relationship to be quite honest, like
no adult should be ever taking their child out unless
it's you know, their child child, uh, family member's child,
(21:04):
you know what I'm saying. But even then, like you
wouldn't be like going to a birthday party with them,
you know, you would be taking them out, so like, oh,
I'll take I'll take a chuck cheese, or I'll take
you to go get some video games or whatever, and
then you bring that child back home.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
But it's Butters bringing Maxi to all these things, not
the other way.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Or I know it's disturbing. It's it's disturbing he's agreed to.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
I mean, but you also don't know how insistent Butters
is being behind the scenes or anything either. And yeah,
it's a little creepy. And this is not in defense
of Maxie at all either, but this seems to be
the only person that's giving him any kind of positive attention.
(21:54):
You're obviously going to gravitate towards that. Again, not defending him,
but it's like he's giving into baser instincts. Not obviously
not anything lust related, but you know, just you're gonna
(22:20):
gravitate towards people that treat you nicely and you know,
and like I say, you don't know how insistent Butters
is being about all this.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
I right, okay, all right.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
So at Skeeter's wine bar, the townspeople are drinking, depressed
about not having church. Randy and Stewart discuss how meaningless
life is before someone runs in to explain that there
are people in the church. Townspeople run, only to find
out it's the Catholic cleanup crew. They informed the town
that nothing weird has happened. Maxi has just gone to
South America. Randy tells him, though, that he was in
(22:55):
his house the other day, but they deny it. Townspeople
walk out, sad that they cannot go back to the
church yet. And at the marsh house, the cleanup crew
started bleaching the kitchen table, only to be spotted by Stan.
Stan Like his father tells them that Maxie was there
the other day. One of the priests and Wipe stand
down with a comby.
Speaker 7 (23:15):
And.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Back at the roller, Rank Clyde is blowing out his candles,
much of the joy of the boys. Maxie then starts
repeating Bible verses again. He aggravates Clyde and Carbon tells
Kyle to sort it out, Kyle tells Butters, takes Butters
into another room, where he explains no one wants Maxi there.
Maxi overhears and leaves depressed. Butters angry, also leaves, and
the cleanup crew then turns up to clean the rink.
(23:40):
Clyde Angry yells at them, threatening to tell the police.
All right, so let's go ahead, and here we'll jump
back into some clips.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Here.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
This is Skeeter's wine bar.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
What's it all about?
Speaker 7 (24:00):
Just bags of carbon and water put on this planet
for no purpose.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
You're born to die, then you're just food for the worms.
Speaker 5 (24:10):
It all does seem pretty meaningless.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Hi, the church is back open. There's people inside the
churches back over.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
So I mentioned They all right of the church, and
it's just a cleanup crew scrub.
Speaker 10 (24:25):
Everything police can detect, even a milligram of common rectal blood.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Hey, oh, hello, my children, the Lord be with you.
And wait, do stare it? What what are you guys doing?
Speaker 10 (24:37):
Oh, we're just giving the place a nice scrub down
while we wait for your priest to come back.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
He was called to South America last week. Last week. No,
he was at my house a couple of days ago
playing board games. With the boys. No, he wasn't. Look
your priest. We'll be back. Just have some patience.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Come on, God, Now that that stands high us everything.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Bleach close board game pieces, you find something to chair.
It's either blad in common or ketch up in Mayo.
Speaker 10 (25:06):
I'll just get rid of it. Bleach the entire top
of the table. That's probably where he mounted.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Here comes stand.
Speaker 5 (25:12):
Excuse me? Oh, hello, my son, what are you doing?
Speaker 2 (25:18):
What are we doing about one?
Speaker 5 (25:19):
I mean it looks like you're scrubbing and bleaching our
table and chairs.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Mmm.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
Your local priest was never here.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
Actually, yeah he was.
Speaker 5 (25:28):
I played with him.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Oh you did better get the comby?
Speaker 5 (25:33):
What's a comby?
Speaker 2 (25:34):
We're just here to cleanse your spirit, my child. Praise
be to Christ.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Okay, so we're back at the roller.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
Ring heavy bay.
Speaker 6 (25:56):
Or no, let us pray my gifts?
Speaker 3 (26:02):
Which way are about to receive?
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Kyle place all right? So, uh, we can't play all
that because there is some copyrighting music in the background here.
So here's Kyle.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
When he takes butters into a private room.
Speaker 5 (26:16):
Sometimes the guys just want to do stuff and not
have a priest around.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
What do you say, Kyle?
Speaker 5 (26:21):
I'm saying, it's just kind of awkward. Butters, he's bumming
everybody out. Nobody wants to hear about Jesus at a
birthday party. Well, of course you don't. It's not just me,
it's everyone Butters.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Of course you don't.
Speaker 5 (26:32):
But he just doesn't belong here. Well, I'm sorry for
trying to help out somebody. He didn't have anywhere else
to turn. We'll be just please.
Speaker 6 (26:41):
I thought you and Betty and Kyle.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Right, you get it because he's Jewish. That's why you
got it.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
I got it. I want it spotless. Get any evidence
the priest might have left behind.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
There's something over.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Here, and this is where they are cleaning up the
uh roller rink, and they're using all of the cleaning
supplies because the priest was just there. He gets the
comby out and starts cleaning Clyde's.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Young man.
Speaker 3 (27:13):
We're looking for your town priest.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
Was he here?
Speaker 5 (27:16):
Yeah, but he left with Butters.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Uh and he's still com being now he's coming in
the backside of Clyde. Oh that's funny. Well, welcome back, Scoop.
Nice have you back here.
Speaker 9 (27:35):
Yeah, there was this weird thing called overwolf running in
my background using literally like my ram for some reason,
So I uh deleted that real quick, and here we
are maybe.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Adelaide says, what if the priest represents someone in the
out group. It's interesting. So Butter's wanders through a parking
lot looking for Maxie. He finds him by a dumpster.
Maxie berates him for not leaving him alone, and then
he tells him that he hates himself because he couldn't
stop the priest from molesting children. He then tells Butters
(28:13):
to go away. Butters walks down the street lonely, and
the Catholic cleanup crew drive him, drive up to him
and try to entice him to get in their van,
eventually succeeding by telling them about the bunny in the back.
Butters find Stan and Clyde in the van and the
three are locked in at the marshaluse Randy's board, flicking
through the TV channels. Maxie comes around looking for Butters.
(28:34):
Randy tries to get him to come back, and he
tells him that about the cleanup group, leading Maxy to worry,
and then in the car, Randy calls up Steven, explaining
the boys have been kidnapped by priest and the two,
along with Linda, cracks some jokes, leading to Maxie angrily
snatch the phone and question of Butters has told them anything.
Stephen tells him about a message saying he had to
(28:55):
do some camping, leading MAXI to realize where they are.
So let's continue that scene here. As he wanders to
the parking lot, he might have seen my feet.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Father a way to go.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
There?
Speaker 1 (29:10):
You are anyway, just leave me alone, but you're missing
the party.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
Look, your friends are right, Okay, I don't belong there.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
He doesn't.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
I don't belong anywhere.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Well, I mean that's not true.
Speaker 8 (29:23):
They just don't understand you I do.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
Stop defending me.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
There's things you don't know that It's not your fault.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
Yes it is.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
It is my fault. Wow, Because I know all right, Oh,
I knew.
Speaker 6 (29:39):
Years ago when bad things started coming out about the
Catholic Church. I went to the Vatican, and I I
found out that the problem was worse than anyone even thought.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
Right.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
I thought I could help fix it, so I kept
my mouth.
Speaker 4 (29:53):
Shoot.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
I thought there was a cancer in the church that
we could get rid of. But the church is the cancer.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
It's not about a few bad apples.
Speaker 6 (30:04):
There's only a few good apples, and I'm clearly not
one of them.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Damn, So just stay away from me.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Heavy. That was heavy, and he does make a good point.
He did go to the Vatic Vatican, and he did
play a video game called What Joe Trivia?
Speaker 4 (30:25):
God, sorry, I blanked out there. I hear sirens in
the background. I'm totally cops are coming.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
They got it. There's a pound of bam bam under
the hood of your car. Trying to be a man.
But yeah, I think it's uh the game that came
out for the Atari, uh Pitfall?
Speaker 4 (30:54):
Oh yeah, when.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
He plays the Pitfall style game to reach the Holy
Vatican of whatever whatever.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
So he did go, he did technically try, and then
he finds out that it's being Gelga mikes Wells, fuck
the glax, fuck the it's a man's obligation to stick
his boneration in a woman's separation exactly. Not you gotta
read you got it.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
All right.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
So here's uh. Now, as we mentioned, the cleanup crew
tries to entice Butters to get in the car.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
Hey, hey, there, what's the matter my child? Did you
know that Jesus loves.
Speaker 5 (31:46):
You Sometimes I wonder.
Speaker 7 (31:50):
And the life I now live in the flesh. I
live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me,
one of three musketeers. You like camping trips? You want
to go camping?
Speaker 1 (32:03):
Now?
Speaker 2 (32:05):
I got a bunny in the back. You want to
see the bunny?
Speaker 5 (32:08):
Okay, Butters, Stan, I have no idea. What's going on?
Worst birthday ever?
Speaker 1 (32:21):
Oh that's great, that's that's delightful. Right, as we mentioned,
flickering through the TV channels here.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
Stupid good but dated in its view of gender norms.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Answers the darbell.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
Hello, mister marsh father, hey shared his father to Mars.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
I'm just going around trying to locate a little Butter Scotch.
I thought he might be here playing a board game
with your son.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Oh no, I haven't seen Butters or stand but father, please,
we all need church.
Speaker 3 (32:54):
I'm sorry, but I have to keep looking. I said
some terrible things.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
Please, Father, We're all lost in. The cleanup crew hasn't
helped at all.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
What cleanup crew?
Speaker 7 (33:08):
All?
Speaker 1 (33:09):
Right? Now? The boys here camping outside, they're tied up.
The cleanup crew is trying to trap Maxie. They have
a bigger machine known as a Camboni to deal with them.
Maxi eventually turns up, expecting to be killed. They tell
him he's actually being transferred, which Maxie seemingly accepts and leaves.
Priest begins to celerate before Maxi turns up again on
(33:31):
the Comeboni driving it, he runs over and kills all
three of the cleanup crew and rescues the three boys.
He explains to them that he has realized his purpose
to protect all the boys. Maxie then reopens the church
to the happy townspeople. He gives a servant about penance,
which is once again interrupted by Catholic priest jokes, but
after what he has been through, he learns to accept
(33:51):
them and not be disturbed by them. That is how
the episode, And so let's watch up these final clips
here of this episode. The rendition of SMB A South
Park Review.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
Priest do this episode?
Speaker 6 (34:06):
That's right, sorry of him, No, but this is drawing
out the Q one says, it's where he and the
priest first got together.
Speaker 7 (34:11):
All right, when the priest gets here, we'll take care
of him and then eradicate this entire place of any evidence.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
Should I bring out the comby now.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
This is gonna be a bigger job than that. Bring
out the camboni.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
The cambonie. That is a big kumbone. All right, jumping
forward here, Randy.
Speaker 2 (34:33):
Now boys are missing. Father Maxie thinks they've been taken
by the other priests. Taken by priests. Should we call
the police or buy some condoms? Okay, okay, that was good,
but seriously, we have to find these guys. The boys
are in danger. But where would priest.
Speaker 5 (34:48):
Go this late at night to a midnight sale at
boys Rs?
Speaker 2 (34:52):
What do you say she.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
Said to him? Midnight sail it boys?
Speaker 2 (34:56):
Yes? Can I post that? Sure? She doesn't care?
Speaker 3 (34:59):
Give me exact this is well.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
Yeah, we got a really weird text from him saying
not to worry, he needed to do some camping. Oh
my lord, I know.
Speaker 10 (35:09):
Where to go, and when we get there, I'll need
to go in alone.
Speaker 3 (35:16):
He's not sewing up.
Speaker 10 (35:18):
Private priest call im.
Speaker 2 (35:27):
Oh he's coming all right, just not here. Let's start
packing up.
Speaker 7 (35:31):
You get on the cumboni and eradicate this place along
with everything in it.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
Yes, your holliness, Wait, you wanted to find me.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
Well, it's disturbing that they stripped the boys down to
their underwear too. In this scene. I'm just saying here,
I am.
Speaker 2 (35:49):
I know why you're here.
Speaker 6 (35:51):
The church can't have someone like me going around making
it look bad, So go ahead, do it.
Speaker 7 (35:59):
Just over with what now you think we searched all
over town and set up this trap to kill you.
Speaker 2 (36:07):
We're Catholics. We're here to give you what you deserve,
a full.
Speaker 7 (36:11):
Transfer to the beautiful Maldive Islands, luxury airfare.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
And beach house.
Speaker 7 (36:15):
It cleared in.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
Transfer.
Speaker 10 (36:19):
The church took care of everything, just like it always
has from the beginning.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Thank you for cleaning up on my colm.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
I can just go.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
I can start over in the Maldives. No one will
make fun of you there. They can't even speak English.
Speaker 7 (36:36):
And don't worry, there'll be plenty of priests to take
your place here.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Look, I know it's a big change, but you know
what you have to do. Yes, I do.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
I don't think I have any other choice.
Speaker 7 (36:54):
Well, our work here is don praise Brita crist Scars.
Certainly well is a tough one, but I think got
everything clean, got.
Speaker 1 (37:01):
Round, and now he frees the boys.
Speaker 3 (37:33):
I'm so sorry, my child. I never meant to say
we weren't pals.
Speaker 5 (37:37):
Does that mean you're gonna stay.
Speaker 6 (37:39):
Of course, now I have purpose and I have meaning.
My job here is to protect.
Speaker 1 (37:46):
You, all of them. And now very next Sunday they
have church and he's given his sermon once again. This
is how we end the episode.
Speaker 6 (37:57):
The subject of penance, penitent have deep remorse. But for
true penance, we must be humble enough to admit that
the Lord's forgiveness, the Lord's undeserved, undeserved.
Speaker 7 (38:11):
Kind of like how getting raped by a Catholic priest
is undeserved.
Speaker 3 (38:16):
In joke for six we read, therefore.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Apprehend as they make jokes to end this episode.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
And inquire boys, butts, and asses.
Speaker 6 (38:27):
We are not to punish ourselves, but instead we are
to make ourselves.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Passionate, like a Catholic priest at a chucky jeez. It's
good back, it's.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
God face torifice, and how hard it truly was?
Speaker 2 (38:44):
How hard what truly was?
Speaker 1 (38:51):

Speaker 1 (42:07):
Trivia, all right now, ladies and gentlemen. Making his way
back to the podcast.
Speaker 9 (42:19):
It I were come and say, come.
Speaker 1 (42:24):
On, scoop, why don't you read us up? Some pope
culture take it away the episode. Sorry.
Speaker 9 (42:37):
The episode references a sexual abusive miners in the Catholic Church.
The Catholic cleanup crew offering Father Maxi a transfer to
the Maldives is a reference to parish transfers, transfers of
abusive priests, which there is receipts of and is real
the Catholic Church.
Speaker 4 (42:58):
You know, oh yeah, no, and that was they totally
did that and it was a shitty response to what
was going on.
Speaker 1 (43:06):
Ya.
Speaker 9 (43:06):
They're moving alone. The boys play the board game Western Legends.
According to the game's creators, Dray Parker and the staff
at South Park Studios are big fans of the board games.
So I'm gonna have to go look into this board game.
I guess it's real. Okay, that's cool. Butters and Father
(43:27):
Maxi look at Bible quotes on a computer in the library.
The website they are visiting ww dot Catholic Scripture dot
com is not an existing website, so don't go ahead
and look it up before you.
Speaker 2 (43:40):
Try to.
Speaker 3 (43:44):
Excuse me.
Speaker 9 (43:46):
The cleanup crew reference Daniel Camboni with Camboni clean up
the Camboni is it's based on Zamboni or ice resurface
is Daniel Camboni. So who's Daniel Camboni?
Speaker 1 (44:11):
Oh wow, old.
Speaker 9 (44:14):
Priest that like little boys? Flashlight Parliament plays at the
beginning of Clyde's birthday. More Bounce to the Ounce by
Zapp plays after kids singing Happy birth I'm sorry, but
Daniel Camboni. More Bounced to the Ounce by Zapp plays
(44:36):
after the kids sing Happy Birthday. Decline uh place The
fall Apart by Meryl Haggard comes from the radio at
the bar Merle Sorry, that isn't et Merle Haggard. I'm
getting new glasses all right, they're coming. Like my My
vision this year has got exponentially. There you are, there's
(44:57):
a camera. My vision this year has got exponentially. Wars like,
I don't understand what's happening.
Speaker 4 (45:06):
I's a.
Speaker 9 (45:12):
Uh it's a love thing by the Whisperers is heard
when the Catholic crew searched the roller rink and used
the Camboni. The the combe on Clyde Donovan Toys r
Us is a reference to Linda's by Linda Stotch and
her joke about the Catholic priests Family Entertainment Center. Chuck
E Cheese is a reference by one of the church
(45:33):
parishioners parishioners and a joke about Catholic priests. In reality,
a transfer to the Maldives would not be an idyllic
paradise for a Catholic priest, as that faith is the
target of persecution in the Maldives. Citizens who convert to
Christianity lose their citizenship and risk torture and imprisonment.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
Wow, I did not know that.
Speaker 9 (45:59):
And public practicing Christianity is forbidden. And here we go.
To finish up, Clyde quotes the Simpsons comic book Guy
when he says worst birthday ever. He even says it
in the same manner as the character.
Speaker 1 (46:20):
And ladies and gentlemen, that is your references to a culture.
Here's a little bit of storyline continuity. Stan Ward's cast
on his right arm likely dude of course, having been
shot in the previous episode Dead Kids, which you can
go back and listen to that On the podcast, Stan
started playing board games and freemium isn't free as a
(46:41):
way to avoid playing addictive mobile games. Well, that's a
good point. Father Maxi references Red Hot Catholic Love when
he went down to the Vatican to try and address
the issue of pediphee PDFs in the Catholic Church. Clyde
has a birthday in this episode. He had previously had
birthdays and you have zero Friends and Moss Pigolets, which
(47:01):
likely take place shortly before this has Clyde has invited
Butters to his party. This and the ten candles on
his cake show that he has turned ten, like Stan
and You're getting old. And of course, as we mentioned,
the hashtag canceled South Park last week is shown again
in the background during this episode, as hasn't been for
all episodes in season twenty two up until the episode
The Problem with a Pooh, which we will get too,
(47:23):
Ladies and gentlemen, that's your full recap storyline. Continuerity references
to pop culture scoop thoughts on this episode, like dislikes,
what did you think?
Speaker 2 (47:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 9 (47:37):
This episode is hard to It's like, you know, we
just got through in about thirty minutes, you know it
has really funny moments, but at the same time it's
kind of forgettable. The gelgamec scene, of course, is pretty good.
Speaker 4 (47:58):
Well that that wasn't in this one.
Speaker 1 (48:02):
That was that was from Red Hot Catholic Love Catholic
That's right, I was from Red Hot Catholic Love. That
was an old episode.
Speaker 9 (48:17):
But yeah, just exactly like, uh, that's that's my recrab,
like my feelings on this episode. You know, it's, uh,
it's got moments, but eh, forgettable. Move on. It's not
their greatest, but it's pretty funny.
Speaker 1 (48:35):
Yeah, before we get to Joe's thoughts, I think, as
I've said throughout the episode, I always found this episode
just to be like just a little disturbing because oh
yeah that there we go than you because is hanging
out with Butters. So it's just a little disturbing, and
I get what they're doing. They did it on purpose,
as Joe pointed out earlier, that it's supposed to be,
(48:57):
you know, kind of cringey and uncomfortable, and that's because
of the current state of accusations that had happened New
years prior. So yeah, it definitely felt kind of weird.
But as far as like you're right from a remember
rememberable is that that's not a word from an episode
(49:19):
that you remember, not really, you know what I'm saying, Like,
it's not going to be an episode you remember as
far as what's going to It brought lots of laughs,
Like there was a couple of moments in this episode,
but like the comedy I guess is in the fact
that Butter's is hanging out with Priest Maxie. But if
you don't find that funny and find it more cringing
and comfortable, then there's not a lot of points in
(49:40):
this episode where I feel like I laughed. Joe, what
did you think of this episode?
Speaker 4 (49:47):
So there are a couple things I'd like that I'll
get to at the end, because you know, leave on
a high note. The cum jokes and the sound effects
for all the come related things, they just kind of
wear thin. And it's I know that they were trying
(50:09):
to mention it so many times that it gets so
over the top that it becomes funny again, like when
they which is a standard comedy trope, it just doesn't
happen here. Why do this episode now? Why do this
episode now in twenty eighteen? I mean, why do that?
(50:33):
Especially when it was done better twelve years ago as
Red Hot Catholic Club. It was it was more pertinent then,
Like it was definitely more pertinent when Red Hot Catholic
c Love premiered, there was no reason to go back
to it. And the episode as a whole just like
(50:57):
really misses with me, and it's like bottom twenty for me,
and it maybe even like bottom ten. I can't like
Other than Pip and maybe one or two other episodes,
I can't think of an episode that I hate more
(51:21):
than this. That said, there are a few things I liked.
Back to the Future shout out by naming the shopping
center Twin Pines and just like Twin Pine small, you know,
like so even when they're not doing all that great,
they have something cool like that the stereotypical strangers in
(51:47):
a van with candy thing. It did kind of make
me laugh, Like that was one of the few jokes
that really made me laugh. And no, it's definitely not
a rewatchable episode at all.
Speaker 8 (52:04):
And.
Speaker 4 (52:06):
I do like that. And they show father MAXI to
be a good person throughout the episode, and yeah, like
maybe a couple of the activities he does with butters
are a little questionable but they don't lead to any
(52:31):
of the things that people are assuming they lead to,
which I think is another commentary. They were trying to
make it like, you know, not every man of the
cloth is bad and like that's like my views on
organized religion aside, I'm never gonna say every man of
the cloth is is a bad dude. It does organize
(52:55):
religion make people do very bad things in my opinion. Yes,
that being said, there are very good people within those things,
and I liked it that they were, you know, reinforcing
that Maxie was one of those people.
Speaker 1 (53:15):
Okay, well that's that's all of our thoughts on this episode.
Ladies and gentlemen, Thanks for coming. That's gonna do it.
Speaker 2 (53:29):
Of s MB.
Speaker 1 (53:32):
South Park Review coming up next week. It's the problem
with the Pooh Mister Hanky's offensive behavior puts him in
jeopardy of being fired as the director of the annual
Christmas pageant. Just you, Ambi, it's all coming up. It's
all coming up next week of s MB South Park Review.
Speaker 3 (54:00):

(01:38):
into it. Boys. So this is called A Boy and
His Priest. It is the second episode of season twenty

of South Park, first airing on October third, two thousand
and eighteen. My gosh, boys, you know what that means.
This is SMB number two ninety two. So close we are.
(02:06):
We are just about two months away from episode three hundred.
Joe says, we make his commute to work tolerable. Well,
we're glad we can do that for you, buddy. God
there we can. Oh check it out. Who's here now, Revamp?
Speaker 3 (02:23):
What's up?
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Revamp for wrestling? Wait a minute, that looks like your
old channel. Did you get your old channel back? Did
they give you back the channel? Because that would be remarkable.
A boy is priest, second episode of season twenty two.
This is SMB two eighty nine. I'm sorry, SB two
and eighty ninth overall episode. Gosh, I'm already off here
and day priest? Yeah, not his priest. A boy and
(02:48):
a priest, that's right. The town finds the church doors
locked up and there's no sign of butters or the pasture.
I'm sorry, Revamp. I thought you did because you just
had reg revent wrestling, so I don't know, my bad.
Uh So the Marsh family leave for church here to
start this episode, stand this cast from being shot in
(03:08):
the previous In the previous episode, he's got in the cast,
you know, because he got shot. He's annoyed about having
to go to church every Sunday. Sharon and Randy discuss
how much better they feel when they go to church,
so they arrive at church with the other townspeople. They
all act friendly to each other, with Randy holding the
door and even filling pity for a woman who's missing
(03:29):
the sermon inside. Father Maxie begins his sermon, speaking about
what God has to give us. He's interrupted many times
by adults heckling him with Catholic priest jokes and laughing
at each other. Maxie tries to calm them, but he fails.
But he is bullshit, man, It's bullshit up Joe's hot,
(03:53):
So Joe.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Why is it?
Speaker 4 (03:55):
Why is it only the Catholics? Cat? Why is it
only the Catholics sketching this ship? Why?
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Why?
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Because if you read the headlines and everything else, it's
a it's Southern Baptist, It's every fucking sect of Christianity.
You can probably find some Muslims that fuck boys as well,
but no, it's only Catholicism that gets made fun of.
Why why explain it to me? Is it because we've
only had one Catholic president and everything else? It's all
(04:20):
like some Southern Baptist shit, Like, come on, someone explain
it to me. Explain it to me, like I'm five, no, no,
no one nothing, fuck everyone.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
It's not just Catholics, Mike drop, you know. And with that,
let's open some clips here on another edition smb A
South Park Review. Here's the marshis getting ready to leave
for church.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
We don't want to be late. Do I have to go?
Speaker 5 (04:56):
It's the only day I get to play games.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
We're all going.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
Come on, don't understand why we have to go to
church every Sunday.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Church is important, stand way more important than video games
and TV. Church is about community, coming together a lot
of things. All I know is that after church I
just feel better. Yeah, meet too, meet too.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
So they arrive here. Townspeople are all walking in now
and inside the church.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Gosh, he's slipped her disc in her neck. Poor thing
can barely move. She sent to miss church. That's too bad.
Give her my best.
Speaker 6 (05:33):
For God so loved the world that he gave his
only begotten son so that whoever believed in him should
have eternal life.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
This is the Gospel of the Lord.
Speaker 6 (05:43):
Today's gospel talks about what the Lord has to give us.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
He did so because we.
Speaker 7 (05:49):
Could not control our temptations, kind of like a priest
and a room full of naked boys.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Okay, okay, let's let's try and have none of that today.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
In John three sixteen, the gospel tells us how God
so loved the.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
World he gave to us his only son.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
And a Catholic prieste raped him.
Speaker 6 (06:10):
Okay, come on, guys, now, what greater gift could the
Lord have given.
Speaker 5 (06:15):
To us children's underwear which priests couldn't pull down so easily?
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Okay, ourselves?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
All right, So you get the point there, you get
the point. You get the point in general. But connecting
people with the wrestling says, these are some aggressive noises
for his heroes, and yes, Adelaide very rude, very very rude. Indeed,
So now the adults all leave at the end and
(06:43):
laughing at the jokes they just told. They're in the
car stand questions the point in the jokes, describing it
as stupid. Rannie rates him saying comments like that will
make him go to hell, and then back of the church,
Buttters comes to visit the upset priest and he explains
that he knows how it feels to be bullied and
explains Maxi needs to just put himself out there. While
(07:06):
that happens at game night. Now at the Marshal's house,
the boys are playing Western Legends. Butters comes in, bringing
Maxie with him to play the game. Confused, starts playing,
but is disturbed by his Bible quotes. Butter's attempts to
make Maxi look good by mentioning his singing hobby, but
they are spotted by Randy, who starts ridiculing Maxi. Maxie
(07:28):
then leaves, with Butters coming after him, leaving Cartman to
question who invited Butters to game night. And then outside,
Butters catches up to Maxi to try and make him
feel better about himself, and he tells Maxi that if
people want to hurt him, fuck him. So let's jump
back into some more clips. Jump ahead here to the
(07:48):
next scene as they.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Leave Boy's mouth, I'm gonna post that one for sure.
Speaker 7 (07:53):
Who said the thing about naked boy salad?
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Well, see you next week.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
I like to go to church to make fun of
the sky.
Speaker 5 (08:03):
I really don't understand the point of all that.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Yeah, well I used to think that about church when
I was a kid too, But.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
Back then I don't know if church was that stupid.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Hey, don't say things like that, Stan, you want to
go to fucking hell?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Ye, Now, father Maxie Butters comes to visit him, walks
in because you can hear there, he's just sighing. Butters, Now, fata.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
Can I talk to you?
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Oh, of course, my child. What's troubling you?
Speaker 5 (08:40):
Well, what's troubling you? You know, at school the kids
used to all make fun of me. Sometimes one kid
would say something to mean and then the other kids
would laugh. I know how any feels.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
You know how it feels.
Speaker 5 (08:56):
I learned to just walk away, not give him all
the satisfaction.
Speaker 6 (09:00):
Well, we can't all walk away, but the priest took
us all I know.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
That's all I know.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
Is dedicated my entire life.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Entire life, Joe, I don't know anything else.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
I know what I thought I'd be a punching bag
my whole life now. I mean, I'm one of the
popular teach I even standshouse.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
One of the popular kids, one of the popular kids.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
Oh man, he brings it, but like MAXI brings up
a really good point here that like I don't think
always get like jeezu o, I've dedicated my whole Like no,
he really has. Like going to seminary is like the
(09:48):
decision you make usually in like your mid teens, early
mid teens, late teens, because then you got to go
to college for it and then you actually have to
go to seminary and everything. So by the time, like
so you got a guy like Maxie who looks like
he's in his forties or fifties, and that's like, you know,
(10:10):
a good like twenty five thirty five years on top
of whatever you know he was doing in church before that,
Like like when they say it's a man of God,
like you know in a case like Maxie, where you
know he's not doing anything wrong and he's just preaching,
and that is like the definition of a man of God.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
There you go, that is the definition.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
It's it's just something that you gotta kind of like
oh where you know, like no man really had like
can you like can any of us, like would any
of us really take a valid celibacy for anything, let
alone God?
Speaker 1 (10:55):
And why does father father MAXI have a square head
for Canadian for Canadian? There you go. Uh so now
at game night?
Speaker 5 (11:06):
Oh there's Butters. Hey, fallies, I hope you don't mind.
I brought a friend.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Come on in a hello my children?
Speaker 5 (11:15):
H okay, So I guess I'm gonna go to the
saloon and try to arrest cartman. Let's see what you got, bitch.
Father is a really good singer. You like to sing too,
don't you? No?
Speaker 6 (11:27):
Praise the Lord for the Lord is good? Saying praise
to his name for that?
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Just pleasant? Hey, Stan, have you seen my Randy?
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Now?
Speaker 2 (11:41):
No way, hang on, hang on, I gotta post this.
I shouldn't be here. This is hilarious. Four boys in
a breeze playing your board game. Father, I should go no, no, no, wait,
look at the picture.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Father.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
H shit, I missed it.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
Why did you invite Butters to game night? I didn't
invite him?
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Come on? Uh all right? So? Uh as I mentioned
Butters runs after priest Maxie, You're.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Gonna make things way worse. People will rip on me.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Who cares? Who cares what people say I do? Oh?
Speaker 3 (12:21):
Come on, you gotta be strong.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Why do you care?
Speaker 5 (12:25):
Because I was you?
Speaker 7 (12:27):
Okay?
Speaker 5 (12:28):
I wasn't always cool. I'd been through it. But then
one day somebody told me something. He said, life is
full of love and life impactable things. And you know
who told me that you did two years ago in church.
You have a right to go and be happy. And
if people want to keep trying to knock you down,
where fuck him?
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Damn you tell them, Butters, you tell them, well, a
game are now. Next Sunday, the townspeople riv at church,
once again being positive and friendly, but when Randy tries
to open the door, already finds it locked, leaving the
townspeople to worry. Waters comes out of the church and
its subject your ridicule. He tells everyone there's no church
(13:07):
and slams the door back in the marsh car. The
parents are upset about not being able to ridicule the
priest and Shelley questions why this is a big deal
and is yelled at by Randy. And while that's going on,
Maxim Butters are sitting around a campfire toasting marshmallows. The
two are happy and become friends, and montage has shown
the two doing various activities together while Faith in Christ plays,
(13:28):
and these activities vary from walking around and rowing to
watching movies and playing. Some of these activities are seen
by the townspeople, who look on confused.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
Even Rocky had a montage, Mota.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
That's right, Even Rocky had a freaking montage.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
All right.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
So here's Randy as he walks up. Scoop, you there,
are you muted? Might be muted right now?
Speaker 2 (13:54):
All right?
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Well, Scoop, whenever you're there. I like this graphic. Then
it's pretty cool. All right. So here is Rainy walking out. Huh,
skips con.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Better, hun, Josie a lot better? Thank you?
Speaker 5 (14:09):
All right?
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Huh?
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Faith plus one it's not open.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Let me try.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
And now they all try to get in at o'clock.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Right, what's going on?
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Oh, Lock, Butters.
Speaker 5 (14:32):
There's no church today. You all are just going to
have to find him better to do.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Okay, they opened the door, thank god.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
So now they're pissed.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
This sucks. What are we supposed to do without church?
Speaker 5 (14:49):
I just feel so empty?
Speaker 1 (14:51):
What do you get?
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Shut up.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Now, Father Maxim Butters fresh nice.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
I have to admit.
Speaker 6 (15:01):
It's a pretty nice way to spend a fun day.
How many are your works? Lord in wisdom? You made
them all?
Speaker 1 (15:10):
It's pretty cool, he is, all right, let me mute
this you that's probably copyrighted here. So as you can
see here, Father Maxie and Butters they're looking at a bird.
Here they're rowing a boat. And this is all while
that song is playing. It starts pawing. Nice little upgrade.
(15:31):
Here they show us. And now we see Butters and
Father Maxie is sitting on the bench and he puts
his arm around and then he puts his hand on
his leg. That's disgusting. It continues on. They're in a
(15:57):
movie theater eating popcorn. And here's what I was saying.
Here comes the rest of the townspeople. Now they're looking
on and they're like, what is going on here? And
then we see Butters here in Prince Maxie on the
swing set, and the boys look very confused, and they
keep walking like, you know what, we're not even gonna
(16:17):
touch this. And Maxie and Butters then continue on and
they sing and they look at Bible verses together, and
he gets again see a guy behind them looking as
Butters plays Professor Chaos. It's like Father Maxie, but he's
never had a friend or something. I don't know, a
little disturbing, little disturbing indeed. All right, So now at
(16:43):
the arch how do you pronounce this archdiocese? The Archdiocese
of Denver. The archbishop gets a call from mister Mackie,
who informs him that the priest has gone missing. The
archbishop believes he means the priest has run off with
some boys and calls the Catholic clean up crew sort
them out. At Kid's Own Roller, Rank Clyde is having
(17:05):
a party to celebrate his birthday. Butter's comes in, bringing
Maxie with him. Clyde as angry as he doesn't want
to priest at his party. Butter's guides Maxie through how
to skate as the other partygoers watch on confused. This
is a really weird episode, Joe, It really is.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
It also feels like it was a few years too late,
like this should have been like this is twenty eighteen.
This feels like it's almost twenty years too late. But
that's kind of putting the cart before the horse as
far as his podcast go. But yeah, it's it's just
(17:43):
oh weird. I'll just have a hard time.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Get through this review, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
It's not supposed to be a very comfortable, yeah episode,
like they're going out of their way to make it uncomfortable,
even though there's actually nothing the sinister going on between
Maxie and and Butters. It's but it.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Yeah, Clyde is.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
But it is a weird episode. Clyde is not the
master debate or everyone's turning into Cartman.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
It's not fair, not fair, that's true. Of course we're
talking about Go get a nut. I got a nut.
The latest episode South Park, season twenty seven, episode number two.
Speaker 4 (18:38):
And for the record, the real Catholic cleanup crew is
known as the Mafia or La Cosa Nostra. Oh damn,
all right, good more do you know.
Speaker 8 (18:54):
Denver arch Diocese, The Lord with you and with your spirit.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
My name is Counselor Mackie, and we seem to be
having a little problem with our local church here in
South Park. Our uh, our priest has gone missing.
Speaker 8 (19:09):
Oh not another one? All right, listen to me carefully.
Your local priest has not done anything wrong, probably just
taking some time off.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Why is that suspicious, Well, it's not suspicious. We just
kind of don't know what to do. You know, she'll
take care of it.
Speaker 8 (19:24):
There's no need to involve the authorities. Just sit tight,
sending a cleanup crew.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
Now, all the conclusion jumping, We've.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Got another one.
Speaker 8 (19:36):
Breston South Park is gone rogue and it's probably out
doing his thing. I need you guys to get up
there and clean up his mess.
Speaker 7 (19:44):
Don't worry your holiness. By the time we're done with
that town, there won't be a lick of calm anywhere.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
Oh my gosh, that's just dirty. All right, So Butters,
now I hope you don't mind. I I rob Maxie.
Speaker 6 (20:01):
For we are God's handiwork created in prist Jesus to
do good works.
Speaker 5 (20:07):
What are you talking about?
Speaker 3 (20:09):
Get out, let's don't care.
Speaker 9 (20:10):
At the skating rink.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
I think this song is probably gonna be copyright.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
It is, Yeah, Flashlight is definitely copyright.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
So Clyde's not very happy. As you can see, they're
on the skating rink and now we see, well Butter's
here teaching Priest Maxie how to skate. It's kind of
weird that they're having this at a at a birthday party.
Speaker 5 (20:35):
Nobody scaring killed.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
You get nil with the other bet, you.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Just mingle with the other fellows. Yeah, it's like almost
like they're dating or something, but they're being friends. It's
just a very disturbing relationship to be quite honest, like
no adult should be ever taking their child out unless
it's you know, their child child, uh, family member's child,
(21:04):
you know what I'm saying. But even then, like you
wouldn't be like going to a birthday party with them,
you know, you would be taking them out, so like, oh,
I'll take I'll take a chuck cheese, or I'll take
you to go get some video games or whatever, and
then you bring that child back home.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
But it's Butters bringing Maxi to all these things, not
the other way.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Or I know it's disturbing. It's it's disturbing he's agreed to.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
I mean, but you also don't know how insistent Butters
is being behind the scenes or anything either. And yeah,
it's a little creepy. And this is not in defense
of Maxie at all either, but this seems to be
the only person that's giving him any kind of positive attention.
(21:54):
You're obviously going to gravitate towards that. Again, not defending him,
but it's like he's giving into baser instincts. Not obviously
not anything lust related, but you know, just you're gonna
(22:20):
gravitate towards people that treat you nicely and you know,
and like I say, you don't know how insistent Butters
is being about all this.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
I right, okay, all right.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
So at Skeeter's wine bar, the townspeople are drinking, depressed
about not having church. Randy and Stewart discuss how meaningless
life is before someone runs in to explain that there
are people in the church. Townspeople run, only to find
out it's the Catholic cleanup crew. They informed the town
that nothing weird has happened. Maxi has just gone to
South America. Randy tells him, though, that he was in
(22:55):
his house the other day, but they deny it. Townspeople
walk out, sad that they cannot go back to the
church yet. And at the marsh house, the cleanup crew
started bleaching the kitchen table, only to be spotted by Stan.
Stan Like his father tells them that Maxie was there
the other day. One of the priests and Wipe stand
down with a comby.
Speaker 7 (23:15):
And.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Back at the roller, Rank Clyde is blowing out his candles,
much of the joy of the boys. Maxie then starts
repeating Bible verses again. He aggravates Clyde and Carbon tells
Kyle to sort it out, Kyle tells Butters, takes Butters
into another room, where he explains no one wants Maxi there.
Maxi overhears and leaves depressed. Butters angry, also leaves, and
the cleanup crew then turns up to clean the rink.
(23:40):
Clyde Angry yells at them, threatening to tell the police.
All right, so let's go ahead, and here we'll jump
back into some clips.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Here.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
This is Skeeter's wine bar.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
What's it all about?
Speaker 7 (24:00):
Just bags of carbon and water put on this planet
for no purpose.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
You're born to die, then you're just food for the worms.
Speaker 5 (24:10):
It all does seem pretty meaningless.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Hi, the church is back open. There's people inside the
churches back over.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
So I mentioned They all right of the church, and
it's just a cleanup crew scrub.
Speaker 10 (24:25):
Everything police can detect, even a milligram of common rectal blood.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Hey, oh, hello, my children, the Lord be with you.
And wait, do stare it? What what are you guys doing?
Speaker 10 (24:37):
Oh, we're just giving the place a nice scrub down
while we wait for your priest to come back.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
He was called to South America last week. Last week. No,
he was at my house a couple of days ago
playing board games. With the boys. No, he wasn't. Look
your priest. We'll be back. Just have some patience.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Come on, God, Now that that stands high us everything.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Bleach close board game pieces, you find something to chair.
It's either blad in common or ketch up in Mayo.
Speaker 10 (25:06):
I'll just get rid of it. Bleach the entire top
of the table. That's probably where he mounted.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Here comes stand.
Speaker 5 (25:12):
Excuse me? Oh, hello, my son, what are you doing?
Speaker 2 (25:18):
What are we doing about one?
Speaker 5 (25:19):
I mean it looks like you're scrubbing and bleaching our
table and chairs.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Mmm.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
Your local priest was never here.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
Actually, yeah he was.
Speaker 5 (25:28):
I played with him.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Oh you did better get the comby?
Speaker 5 (25:33):
What's a comby?
Speaker 2 (25:34):
We're just here to cleanse your spirit, my child. Praise
be to Christ.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Okay, so we're back at the roller.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
Ring heavy bay.
Speaker 6 (25:56):
Or no, let us pray my gifts?
Speaker 3 (26:02):
Which way are about to receive?
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Kyle place all right? So, uh, we can't play all
that because there is some copyrighting music in the background here.
So here's Kyle.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
When he takes butters into a private room.
Speaker 5 (26:16):
Sometimes the guys just want to do stuff and not
have a priest around.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
What do you say, Kyle?
Speaker 5 (26:21):
I'm saying, it's just kind of awkward. Butters, he's bumming
everybody out. Nobody wants to hear about Jesus at a
birthday party. Well, of course you don't. It's not just me,
it's everyone Butters.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Of course you don't.
Speaker 5 (26:32):
But he just doesn't belong here. Well, I'm sorry for
trying to help out somebody. He didn't have anywhere else
to turn. We'll be just please.
Speaker 6 (26:41):
I thought you and Betty and Kyle.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Right, you get it because he's Jewish. That's why you
got it.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
I got it. I want it spotless. Get any evidence
the priest might have left behind.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
There's something over.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Here, and this is where they are cleaning up the
uh roller rink, and they're using all of the cleaning
supplies because the priest was just there. He gets the
comby out and starts cleaning Clyde's.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Young man.
Speaker 3 (27:13):
We're looking for your town priest.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
Was he here?
Speaker 5 (27:16):
Yeah, but he left with Butters.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Uh and he's still com being now he's coming in
the backside of Clyde. Oh that's funny. Well, welcome back, Scoop.
Nice have you back here.
Speaker 9 (27:35):
Yeah, there was this weird thing called overwolf running in
my background using literally like my ram for some reason,
So I uh deleted that real quick, and here we
are maybe.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Adelaide says, what if the priest represents someone in the
out group. It's interesting. So Butter's wanders through a parking
lot looking for Maxie. He finds him by a dumpster.
Maxie berates him for not leaving him alone, and then
he tells him that he hates himself because he couldn't
stop the priest from molesting children. He then tells Butters
(28:13):
to go away. Butters walks down the street lonely, and
the Catholic cleanup crew drive him, drive up to him
and try to entice him to get in their van,
eventually succeeding by telling them about the bunny in the back.
Butters find Stan and Clyde in the van and the
three are locked in at the marshaluse Randy's board, flicking
through the TV channels. Maxie comes around looking for Butters.
(28:34):
Randy tries to get him to come back, and he
tells him that about the cleanup group, leading Maxy to worry,
and then in the car, Randy calls up Steven, explaining
the boys have been kidnapped by priest and the two,
along with Linda, cracks some jokes, leading to Maxie angrily
snatch the phone and question of Butters has told them anything.
Stephen tells him about a message saying he had to
(28:55):
do some camping, leading MAXI to realize where they are.
So let's continue that scene here. As he wanders to
the parking lot, he might have seen my feet.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Father a way to go.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
There?
Speaker 1 (29:10):
You are anyway, just leave me alone, but you're missing
the party.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
Look, your friends are right, Okay, I don't belong there.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
He doesn't.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
I don't belong anywhere.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Well, I mean that's not true.
Speaker 8 (29:23):
They just don't understand you I do.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
Stop defending me.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
There's things you don't know that It's not your fault.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
Yes it is.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
It is my fault. Wow, Because I know all right, Oh,
I knew.
Speaker 6 (29:39):
Years ago when bad things started coming out about the
Catholic Church. I went to the Vatican, and I I
found out that the problem was worse than anyone even thought.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
Right.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
I thought I could help fix it, so I kept
my mouth.
Speaker 4 (29:53):
Shoot.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
I thought there was a cancer in the church that
we could get rid of. But the church is the cancer.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
It's not about a few bad apples.
Speaker 6 (30:04):
There's only a few good apples, and I'm clearly not
one of them.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Damn, So just stay away from me.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Heavy. That was heavy, and he does make a good point.
He did go to the Vatic Vatican, and he did
play a video game called What Joe Trivia?
Speaker 4 (30:25):
God, sorry, I blanked out there. I hear sirens in
the background. I'm totally cops are coming.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
They got it. There's a pound of bam bam under
the hood of your car. Trying to be a man.
But yeah, I think it's uh the game that came
out for the Atari, uh Pitfall?
Speaker 4 (30:54):
Oh yeah, when.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
He plays the Pitfall style game to reach the Holy
Vatican of whatever whatever.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
So he did go, he did technically try, and then
he finds out that it's being Gelga mikes Wells, fuck
the glax, fuck the it's a man's obligation to stick
his boneration in a woman's separation exactly. Not you gotta
read you got it.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
All right.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
So here's uh. Now, as we mentioned, the cleanup crew
tries to entice Butters to get in the car.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
Hey, hey, there, what's the matter my child? Did you
know that Jesus loves.
Speaker 5 (31:46):
You Sometimes I wonder.
Speaker 7 (31:50):
And the life I now live in the flesh. I
live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me,
one of three musketeers. You like camping trips? You want
to go camping?
Speaker 1 (32:03):
Now?
Speaker 2 (32:05):
I got a bunny in the back. You want to
see the bunny?
Speaker 5 (32:08):
Okay, Butters, Stan, I have no idea. What's going on?
Worst birthday ever?
Speaker 1 (32:21):
Oh that's great, that's that's delightful. Right, as we mentioned,
flickering through the TV channels here.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
Stupid good but dated in its view of gender norms.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Answers the darbell.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
Hello, mister marsh father, hey shared his father to Mars.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
I'm just going around trying to locate a little Butter Scotch.
I thought he might be here playing a board game
with your son.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Oh no, I haven't seen Butters or stand but father, please,
we all need church.
Speaker 3 (32:54):
I'm sorry, but I have to keep looking. I said
some terrible things.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
Please, Father, We're all lost in. The cleanup crew hasn't
helped at all.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
What cleanup crew?
Speaker 7 (33:08):
All?
Speaker 1 (33:09):
Right? Now? The boys here camping outside, they're tied up.
The cleanup crew is trying to trap Maxie. They have
a bigger machine known as a Camboni to deal with them.
Maxi eventually turns up, expecting to be killed. They tell
him he's actually being transferred, which Maxie seemingly accepts and leaves.
Priest begins to celerate before Maxi turns up again on
(33:31):
the Comeboni driving it, he runs over and kills all
three of the cleanup crew and rescues the three boys.
He explains to them that he has realized his purpose
to protect all the boys. Maxie then reopens the church
to the happy townspeople. He gives a servant about penance,
which is once again interrupted by Catholic priest jokes, but
after what he has been through, he learns to accept
(33:51):
them and not be disturbed by them. That is how
the episode, And so let's watch up these final clips
here of this episode. The rendition of SMB A South
Park Review.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
Priest do this episode?
Speaker 6 (34:06):
That's right, sorry of him, No, but this is drawing
out the Q one says, it's where he and the
priest first got together.
Speaker 7 (34:11):
All right, when the priest gets here, we'll take care
of him and then eradicate this entire place of any evidence.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
Should I bring out the comby now.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
This is gonna be a bigger job than that. Bring
out the camboni.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
The cambonie. That is a big kumbone. All right, jumping
forward here, Randy.
Speaker 2 (34:33):
Now boys are missing. Father Maxie thinks they've been taken
by the other priests. Taken by priests. Should we call
the police or buy some condoms? Okay, okay, that was good,
but seriously, we have to find these guys. The boys
are in danger. But where would priest.
Speaker 5 (34:48):
Go this late at night to a midnight sale at
boys Rs?
Speaker 2 (34:52):
What do you say she.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
Said to him? Midnight sail it boys?
Speaker 2 (34:56):
Yes? Can I post that? Sure? She doesn't care?
Speaker 3 (34:59):
Give me exact this is well.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
Yeah, we got a really weird text from him saying
not to worry, he needed to do some camping. Oh
my lord, I know.
Speaker 10 (35:09):
Where to go, and when we get there, I'll need
to go in alone.
Speaker 3 (35:16):
He's not sewing up.
Speaker 10 (35:18):
Private priest call im.
Speaker 2 (35:27):
Oh he's coming all right, just not here. Let's start
packing up.
Speaker 7 (35:31):
You get on the cumboni and eradicate this place along
with everything in it.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
Yes, your holliness, Wait, you wanted to find me.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
Well, it's disturbing that they stripped the boys down to
their underwear too. In this scene. I'm just saying here,
I am.
Speaker 2 (35:49):
I know why you're here.
Speaker 6 (35:51):
The church can't have someone like me going around making
it look bad, So go ahead, do it.
Speaker 7 (35:59):
Just over with what now you think we searched all
over town and set up this trap to kill you.
Speaker 2 (36:07):
We're Catholics. We're here to give you what you deserve,
a full.
Speaker 7 (36:11):
Transfer to the beautiful Maldive Islands, luxury airfare.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
And beach house.
Speaker 7 (36:15):
It cleared in.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
Transfer.
Speaker 10 (36:19):
The church took care of everything, just like it always
has from the beginning.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Thank you for cleaning up on my colm.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
I can just go.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
I can start over in the Maldives. No one will
make fun of you there. They can't even speak English.
Speaker 7 (36:36):
And don't worry, there'll be plenty of priests to take
your place here.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Look, I know it's a big change, but you know
what you have to do. Yes, I do.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
I don't think I have any other choice.
Speaker 7 (36:54):
Well, our work here is don praise Brita crist Scars.
Certainly well is a tough one, but I think got
everything clean, got.
Speaker 1 (37:01):
Round, and now he frees the boys.
Speaker 3 (37:33):
I'm so sorry, my child. I never meant to say
we weren't pals.
Speaker 5 (37:37):
Does that mean you're gonna stay.
Speaker 6 (37:39):
Of course, now I have purpose and I have meaning.
My job here is to protect.
Speaker 1 (37:46):
You, all of them. And now very next Sunday they
have church and he's given his sermon once again. This
is how we end the episode.
Speaker 6 (37:57):
The subject of penance, penitent have deep remorse. But for
true penance, we must be humble enough to admit that
the Lord's forgiveness, the Lord's undeserved, undeserved.
Speaker 7 (38:11):
Kind of like how getting raped by a Catholic priest
is undeserved.
Speaker 3 (38:16):
In joke for six we read, therefore.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Apprehend as they make jokes to end this episode.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
And inquire boys, butts, and asses.
Speaker 6 (38:27):
We are not to punish ourselves, but instead we are
to make ourselves.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Passionate, like a Catholic priest at a chucky jeez. It's
good back, it's.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
God face torifice, and how hard it truly was?
Speaker 2 (38:44):
How hard what truly was?
Speaker 1 (38:51):

Speaker 3 (42:05):
That is your.
Speaker 1 (42:07):
Trivia, all right now, ladies and gentlemen. Making his way
back to the podcast.
Speaker 9 (42:19):
It I were come and say, come.
Speaker 1 (42:24):
On, scoop, why don't you read us up? Some pope
culture take it away the episode. Sorry.
Speaker 9 (42:37):
The episode references a sexual abusive miners in the Catholic Church.
The Catholic cleanup crew offering Father Maxi a transfer to
the Maldives is a reference to parish transfers, transfers of
abusive priests, which there is receipts of and is real
the Catholic Church.
Speaker 4 (42:58):
You know, oh yeah, no, and that was they totally
did that and it was a shitty response to what
was going on.
Speaker 1 (43:06):
Ya.
Speaker 9 (43:06):
They're moving alone. The boys play the board game Western Legends.
According to the game's creators, Dray Parker and the staff
at South Park Studios are big fans of the board games.
So I'm gonna have to go look into this board game.
I guess it's real. Okay, that's cool. Butters and Father
(43:27):
Maxi look at Bible quotes on a computer in the library.
The website they are visiting ww dot Catholic Scripture dot
com is not an existing website, so don't go ahead
and look it up before you.
Speaker 2 (43:40):
Try to.
Speaker 3 (43:44):
Excuse me.
Speaker 9 (43:46):
The cleanup crew reference Daniel Camboni with Camboni clean up
the Camboni is it's based on Zamboni or ice resurface
is Daniel Camboni. So who's Daniel Camboni?
Speaker 1 (44:11):
Oh wow, old.
Speaker 9 (44:14):
Priest that like little boys? Flashlight Parliament plays at the
beginning of Clyde's birthday. More Bounce to the Ounce by
Zapp plays after kids singing Happy birth I'm sorry, but
Daniel Camboni. More Bounced to the Ounce by Zapp plays
(44:36):
after the kids sing Happy Birthday. Decline uh place The
fall Apart by Meryl Haggard comes from the radio at
the bar Merle Sorry, that isn't et Merle Haggard. I'm
getting new glasses all right, they're coming. Like my My
vision this year has got exponentially. There you are, there's
(44:57):
a camera. My vision this year has got exponentially. Wars like,
I don't understand what's happening.
Speaker 4 (45:06):
I's a.
Speaker 9 (45:12):
Uh it's a love thing by the Whisperers is heard
when the Catholic crew searched the roller rink and used
the Camboni. The the combe on Clyde Donovan Toys r
Us is a reference to Linda's by Linda Stotch and
her joke about the Catholic priests Family Entertainment Center. Chuck
E Cheese is a reference by one of the church
(45:33):
parishioners parishioners and a joke about Catholic priests. In reality,
a transfer to the Maldives would not be an idyllic
paradise for a Catholic priest, as that faith is the
target of persecution in the Maldives. Citizens who convert to
Christianity lose their citizenship and risk torture and imprisonment.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
Wow, I did not know that.
Speaker 9 (45:59):
And public practicing Christianity is forbidden. And here we go.
To finish up, Clyde quotes the Simpsons comic book Guy
when he says worst birthday ever. He even says it
in the same manner as the character.
Speaker 1 (46:20):
And ladies and gentlemen, that is your references to a culture.
Here's a little bit of storyline continuity. Stan Ward's cast
on his right arm likely dude of course, having been
shot in the previous episode Dead Kids, which you can
go back and listen to that On the podcast, Stan
started playing board games and freemium isn't free as a
(46:41):
way to avoid playing addictive mobile games. Well, that's a
good point. Father Maxi references Red Hot Catholic Love when
he went down to the Vatican to try and address
the issue of pediphee PDFs in the Catholic Church. Clyde
has a birthday in this episode. He had previously had
birthdays and you have zero Friends and Moss Pigolets, which
(47:01):
likely take place shortly before this has Clyde has invited
Butters to his party. This and the ten candles on
his cake show that he has turned ten, like Stan
and You're getting old. And of course, as we mentioned,
the hashtag canceled South Park last week is shown again
in the background during this episode, as hasn't been for
all episodes in season twenty two up until the episode
The Problem with a Pooh, which we will get too,
(47:23):
Ladies and gentlemen, that's your full recap storyline. Continuerity references
to pop culture scoop thoughts on this episode, like dislikes,
what did you think?
Speaker 2 (47:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 9 (47:37):
This episode is hard to It's like, you know, we
just got through in about thirty minutes, you know it
has really funny moments, but at the same time it's
kind of forgettable. The gelgamec scene, of course, is pretty good.
Speaker 4 (47:58):
Well that that wasn't in this one.
Speaker 1 (48:02):
That was that was from Red Hot Catholic Love Catholic
That's right, I was from Red Hot Catholic Love. That
was an old episode.
Speaker 9 (48:17):
But yeah, just exactly like, uh, that's that's my recrab,
like my feelings on this episode. You know, it's, uh,
it's got moments, but eh, forgettable. Move on. It's not
their greatest, but it's pretty funny.
Speaker 1 (48:35):
Yeah, before we get to Joe's thoughts, I think, as
I've said throughout the episode, I always found this episode
just to be like just a little disturbing because oh
yeah that there we go than you because is hanging
out with Butters. So it's just a little disturbing, and
I get what they're doing. They did it on purpose,
as Joe pointed out earlier, that it's supposed to be,
(48:57):
you know, kind of cringey and uncomfortable, and that's because
of the current state of accusations that had happened New
years prior. So yeah, it definitely felt kind of weird.
But as far as like you're right from a remember
rememberable is that that's not a word from an episode
(49:19):
that you remember, not really, you know what I'm saying, Like,
it's not going to be an episode you remember as
far as what's going to It brought lots of laughs,
Like there was a couple of moments in this episode,
but like the comedy I guess is in the fact
that Butter's is hanging out with Priest Maxie. But if
you don't find that funny and find it more cringing
and comfortable, then there's not a lot of points in
(49:40):
this episode where I feel like I laughed. Joe, what
did you think of this episode?
Speaker 4 (49:47):
So there are a couple things I'd like that I'll
get to at the end, because you know, leave on
a high note. The cum jokes and the sound effects
for all the come related things, they just kind of
wear thin. And it's I know that they were trying
(50:09):
to mention it so many times that it gets so
over the top that it becomes funny again, like when
they which is a standard comedy trope, it just doesn't
happen here. Why do this episode now? Why do this
episode now in twenty eighteen? I mean, why do that?
(50:33):
Especially when it was done better twelve years ago as
Red Hot Catholic Club. It was it was more pertinent then,
Like it was definitely more pertinent when Red Hot Catholic
c Love premiered, there was no reason to go back
to it. And the episode as a whole just like
(50:57):
really misses with me, and it's like bottom twenty for me,
and it maybe even like bottom ten. I can't like
Other than Pip and maybe one or two other episodes,
I can't think of an episode that I hate more
(51:21):
than this. That said, there are a few things I liked.
Back to the Future shout out by naming the shopping
center Twin Pines and just like Twin Pine small, you know,
like so even when they're not doing all that great,
they have something cool like that the stereotypical strangers in
(51:47):
a van with candy thing. It did kind of make
me laugh, Like that was one of the few jokes
that really made me laugh. And no, it's definitely not
a rewatchable episode at all.
Speaker 8 (52:04):
And.
Speaker 4 (52:06):
I do like that. And they show father MAXI to
be a good person throughout the episode, and yeah, like
maybe a couple of the activities he does with butters
are a little questionable but they don't lead to any
(52:31):
of the things that people are assuming they lead to,
which I think is another commentary. They were trying to
make it like, you know, not every man of the
cloth is bad and like that's like my views on
organized religion aside, I'm never gonna say every man of
the cloth is is a bad dude. It does organize
(52:55):
religion make people do very bad things in my opinion. Yes,
that being said, there are very good people within those things,
and I liked it that they were, you know, reinforcing
that Maxie was one of those people.
Speaker 1 (53:15):
Okay, well that's that's all of our thoughts on this episode.
Ladies and gentlemen, Thanks for coming. That's gonna do it.
