Goobacks (S08E07)

All we wanted was to order a double cheeseburger with fries, and instead we had to review "Goobacks" before somebody took 'er jobs! Not that we're actually complaining, since this episode is about as South Park as you can imagine, whilst still being as relevant today as it was in 2004.

We also discuss celebrity podcast "taking 'er jobs", being excited to meet aliens, Simpsons vs South Park and more.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Now pissed off Radneck. You say we shouldn't allow anyone
else through the time portal? All right, your goddamn right.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
These people from the future taking all the work away
from us, decent, present day Americans.

Speaker 4 (00:37):
They dig our yub.

Speaker 5 (00:39):
They took our yub. Kick ass.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
Welcome to Going Down to South Park, the podcast where
they're always digging a jibs, Arm Dando, we're taking jibs?
Who are we taking jobs? What's the thing.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
I was thinking about this as I was watching this episode,
and obviously I've been through this. I worked at Ford
when they went through the old We're gonna take all
your jobs and taking to China and they took ad jebs. Yes,
so I had then had to start podcasting full time,
and I'm glad I did. It worked out for the better, right.
But every time I see a celebrity starting their own podcast,
I just merely think of this episode.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
And go, you're taking that gems Gym. Every celebrity with
their own podcast, you're digging that. Jeb, You've got gibs.
You don't need gives. I must admit I've been infected
by your way of thinking on this because you know,
I'll read sort of various magazines like the Top fifty
People in Podcasting, and it's like it's all actors. I

(01:33):
keep bringing up those guys name fine actor, funny guy,
Jason Bateman.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
But you have you have a vendetta against Bateman.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
I think I do. I had a not a bad
interview with him, but I interviewed him for a movie
called Identity Thiefs, some shit comedy they made with Melisa
McCarthy back in the day. Jason Bateman, this guy is
going to be a fun guy. I mean, yeah, we're
not automatic is going to be BFFs or anything like that.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
But I'm sure you like the rest of development and whatnot.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
Yeah, you know, I thought, oh, this guy's got a
good sense of humor. And all this kind of stuff
and he just came cross is kind of bitter. Now
I can buy that. Yeah, and I must admit and
everything that I've sort of watched about him, Sorry about this, Jason.
I mean, but you know, horses for courses. Everything I've
seen hi him be kind of like you seem like
a bit of a surly guy or a bit of
a snarky That's why he was perfect for us of development.

(02:16):
That's literally who we were. That's a straight man. Yeah.
So yeah, but Jason Bateman or Amy Poehler or even
Conna O'Brien, who we love, is kind of like you're
reading about these things. Was like, yeah, he sold Team
Coco podcast to whoever for something like fifty million backs.
Like you didn't need it. You need it.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
The thing is, when you see those top fifty podcast lists,
it's usually the top the most top fifty, most famous
people doing podcasts.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
It is correct, Yes, mop out to him.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
Oh yeah, Look, if I was a celebrity and either
chance to do a podcast, I'd be doing it. I
love doing podcasting. It's my job. I'm glad everyone people
out there seem to enjoy this thing. To us do
it and I'm going to keep doing it until the
day I die.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
I've got well, you know, you don't need the weather
man to know which way is the wind blowing the
windows clearly in that direction. I mean, I think someone
once said you can tell the state of the economy
almost by the state of entertainment. You know. And if
you've got high profile celebrities doing a lot of ads
or finding sort of alternative streams of revenue as opposed
to you, well, you know, I'm an actor and I

(03:16):
act and I make movies, and that's that. It's like, okay, well,
you know if see there was an ad not long
ago for some kind of video game thing and what not, not
even like a high profile was like a like an
app or something, or like an a game you play
on your phone. And I was like, well, that's a
really good Chris Hemsworth look alike that they've got for that.
And then' that's Chris Hemsworth. That's four. That's four. The

(03:41):
guy has like a forty million dollar compound at Byron Bay.
Why the fuck are you doing ads? Yeah, I mean,
I mean, you've got a few kids, you know, life
costs a bit of money. But it's like aren't you
doing well enough that you.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
Sorry, there's some stand up community that needs the money. Yeah,
but it wasn't just him, was like the will on
net in there as well, and this kind of stuff.
So we don't mean to kind this and turn this
into Gripe Corner.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
We're not. This is not the episode of Ship's fuck Mate.
We're originally working on that, but it took all these
high profile A listers have you know, moved over into
the podcast space, whereas Anandando here climbing the ladder.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
I often say when I first started podcasting, I said
to people podcast, I do a podcast. And when I started,
people used to used to always respond with, well, what's
a podcast and not to explain it.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
Now when they say what do you do?

Speaker 1 (04:30):
I go, I do podcast, it's almost like, of course
you yeah, it's just so oversaturated now where I'm almost
embarrassed to be doing podcasting that when I first started,
it was cool because not that no one else was
doing it, but it wasn't the thing.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
No.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
No, I literally quit radio to do podcasting, and the
guy that I worked for radio said he's good luck
with that, buddy, And now he's quit his job to
start doing podcasting.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
Yeah. Oh, I was saying, you know, well when someone
asked if I do a podcast, or oh you do
a podcast? So well I'm a middle aged, middle white
guy of course of a yeah. Yeah, but enough about that. Yes,
we've talked enough about that. We got that off our chairs.
Let's talk a bit about goubacs.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
Yeah, so goobacs here. This episode here is known for
you took a jabs, right, I.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
Think primarily that's what it's not.

Speaker 1 (05:14):
It's got to be top ten at least South Park
most quoted moments.

Speaker 2 (05:17):
Oh yeah, look that's entered general speak and it's not
just you took a jobs. Say it in a particular way.
I did. I had a lot of fun with it.

Speaker 1 (05:30):
I think I particularly liked stands transition here because Stan's
usually the voice of reason, the guy who can see
things for the way they are, sort of you know,
be levelheaded and go, look, we don't need to be
this way, let's try and work together, blah blah blah.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
And that's who he sorted to.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
Visit started like this is cool people from the future,
and eventually they start taking these jobs. It's the moment
when Randy has his job taken away and then staging.
I was just like the transformation of Stan. I really
appreciate it, and it's a lot of hilarious.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
It's yeah, not just stand though, I mean, and it's
not all the boys, but yeah, it's done in subtle
little ways as well. I'm sort of stepping on one
of my favorite moments here. But there's a stage I think.
You have the town meeting where you've got the people
whose jibs have been ticking the rally. Yeah, yeah, and
one of them, the term bull crap comes up. And
this is not used all that often in South Park,

(06:21):
but yeah, they say this is bull crap. You know,
they took their jibs. Later on down the line, you're
here Carl actually using the same term. It's like, oh,
he's been not infected. But you know, the mentality is
spread and you know it's reached down to the next generation.
It was like not just oh, they took their jobs,
but oh, yeah, this is bull crap. They took their job. Yeah,
the whole the whole mindset has been transferred down to
the next generation. Yeah, I found that kind of interesting.

(06:43):
Where do you think.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Trey Matt sit on the topic on this theme of
immigration and taking jobs? And whatnot, because they don't really
offer it. They had the result at the end of it. Well,
if we just worked towards a better future than the
people from the future we come, but that won't actually
help current day immigration issue. No, we make a better country,
then they won't come Here's like, no they want to
come here. Maybe they're trying to say we should try

(07:05):
and help make their countries better.

Speaker 2 (07:06):
I don't. I don't know if it's like make society better,
it's to be sort of bleed on effects. It's hard
enough to up keep my fucking backyard, let alone help.
Oh yeah, there's that line of always that, yeah, clean
up your own backyard before you clean up anybody else's. Yeah,
it's funny. Yeah, they don't really come across with a
not even a solution, but even a strong stance on it.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
Well, I think they make the ones who are anti
immigration seem like absolute buffoons in this. I think that's
probably what that's more of their position on this is
the idea that actually is no real resolution to. Yeah,
it's not black and white, the issue is it?

Speaker 2 (07:37):
No. I think from an ideological stances like if you're
upset about your job being taken you know, don't be
a dickhead about us. At the same time, it is
kind of an emotional thing, so you maybe can't help
but be a dickhead about it.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
They tried to use Stand a little bit as a
mouthpiece when he sort of says something on the lines of, look,
we shouldn't be calling them go backs because they're just
human beings trying to find a better life. But we
also can't let them all in then it's going to
make our country worse. So that's sort of where they're
trying to, like, we need to find a middle ground here.
There is a middle ground.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
Yeah, I think even the most progressive, small l liberal
person is every once in a while goanna get frustrated
and goan to get angry liberal hippie. Look, look, I'm
sort of ashamed to admit this, but there will be
times it'll be on the phone you need tech support,
or you're on the phone to get bank or something
like that, and it's been outsourced. And I'm gonna put

(08:24):
this as you know, as slightly and democratically, oh sorry,
as diplomatically as possible. You'll have someone on the line.
English is maybe not their first language. You're you know,
you're having a little trouble understanding one another. You're speaking
the same limb, but you're not quite understanding each other.
That it could be incredibly frustrating, probably for them as well.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
I just want to double fucking cheeseburger with fries on
the side.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
Yeah. So they did that very very well, And yeah,
it was like, this should be easy. I just want
to order this food. Why can't you understand you? Yeah? So,
and even if you're like, even if you have all
the right ideas, and even if you believe in those ideas,
it can still be like God damn it, But I
don't think twenty twenty five, right, you watched this episode
goo bags and that obviously the episode is about immigration,

(09:06):
immigrants coming in taking jobs because they're willing to work
for less. Yes, twenty twenty five.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
The equivalent of this is we'd say you're taking their
jobs to computers. Oh yeah, you're got to be Donald's. Now,
like we have the scene with Stan, he's not able
to sort of communicate properly. They're not understanding. They think
it was a chicken berger. No, he want a double
cheeseburger right now. It's there's no human interaction. It's a
computer and the computers don't work, and it's like, can
I just tell you what I want?

Speaker 4 (09:28):
You?

Speaker 1 (09:29):
You gotta use that machine, but it's not working. I
just I want that. Can you just fucking cook that
for me?

Speaker 2 (09:35):
Please? You know? Also there are boogers on the screen.
I don't want to.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
Touch it, and it's just go to the self serve
and it's like unexpected item in the banking are it?

Speaker 2 (09:43):
I'm like, that's not. No, it is not.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
Yeah, oh, let me go find a human to fix this.
I'm sorry, you have to put your hand up. Yeah,
excuse me, excuse me? Can I please trouble you to
come and fix this machine that's supposed to take your
job away from.

Speaker 2 (09:57):
Taking their jobs?

Speaker 1 (09:58):
And so the twenty twenty five of them is AI
computers taking our jobs.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
Yeah, oh yeah in multiple ways, you know, whether it's
a blue collar or.

Speaker 1 (10:07):
White collar writing scripts like everything Hollywood, Hollywood in particular,
thing is really where it's changed the most. You know,
there are taking jobs in supermarkets or what not. But
entertainment is so different now you can't know what's real
and what's not. Like I watch a video on Twitter,
now I go, grock, is this real? And of course
Crock's gonna But did you enjoy this episode though, good box,

(10:31):
I really really enjoyed it.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
I wouldn't say it's like one of my all time favorites. Yeah,
I got a few laughs of it. Absolutely. I mean
I think there are episodes that are either funnier or
present their argument a bit stronger. Yeah, definitely. Yeah, but look,
I certainly didn't dislike it, And yeah, there are bits
in that I really really did enjoy anything with a
terminated parody as well or correct or anything that. Yeah,

(10:53):
it sort of talks about time travel and things like that. Yeah,
but and also does yeah, a pretty good terminator homage
when they're presenting the people from the future let's not
use that term. And there rights like, oh, well, no,
you've actually clearly watched Terminator or a Terminator too a
few times and you clearly like it. You want to
pay tribute to it. So yeah, that was good stuff.

Speaker 1 (11:14):
There's two things in particular that I wouldn't say confused
me of this episode, but would just seemed off the
normal for South Park. So with cartman Wright, he didn't
normally be the one that would be completely against that
they're teching their jobs Cartman wasn't really front center in
this one. I think them had to have been a
deliberate choice, right, because it's too easy for him to
be the one.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
Normally he's pretty reactionary about anything. He'd be like yeah, yeah,
he'd be dropping the g slur because they were all
the time.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
Because what they're trying to do here, I think is
show that even Stan yes infiltrated, even.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
The most tolerant people can become intolerant.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
Yeah yeah, yeah. But also Randy, it wasn't until they
took his job.

Speaker 2 (11:50):
But well it's well, that's hypocrisy, isn't it. And yeah,
that's that's the big joke that he's kind of like.
I mean, everybody's like that. It's like, oh, well I
hate AI until AI helps you out, or oh, it's
gonna help us out in a lot of ways, until
it's like, oh, wait a minute, I'm not relevant anymore.
Oh I can't feed my family anymore. Oh you're going
to take my house. Yeah, and that's when you go cab.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
But I thought Randy would normally be the first guy
to just be complained by. I guess he hadn't lost
his job yet, so maybe that's the issue.

Speaker 2 (12:18):
Has Randy gone? I think I think that episode where
he becomes you know, he's up against bat Dad and
it's all you know, I thought this was America. I
think that's the real turning point for Randy when they
that's when Parker and Stone tend to make him into
kind of a adult cartman, yeah, or easily led buffoon
or South Park's version of Homer. He's edging in that direction.
He has been for some time. I think that not

(12:41):
that they're testing the waters, but they're moving very very
slowly towards that. And right now he's kind of like, no, No,
Randy's just an average middle class guy. He's got Geologists
is not a bad job, but it's a job you've
got to be qualified for. It's a job you got
to be prepa. It's a job that he would be like, yeah,
I've worked I've studied hard and worked hard to get
this position. Not everyone could be a geologist.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
It is if there's ever an alien invasion. He's the
guy that is in Independence State, the the guy the
frizzy hair what is his name, the frizzy hairy gets
choked the death in Independence Day, The scientist guy.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
That's that's Brett Spider. Isn't it isn't that data from
or am I thinking to someone else, No, you're right,
it is, yes, start from start trek. Yeah, yeah, the
next generation.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
But I still though when he happens and he has
his racist tirade, stand does at the start and he
gets berated by Randy and Sharon, I expected Sharon to
but Randy I was like, I swear we've heard him
say racist stuff in the past already, and offensive things.

Speaker 2 (13:34):
Yeah. I guess maybe they're just positioning him.

Speaker 1 (13:35):
As all purpose hypocrite for the sake of the story.
We need him to be nice at the start and
then have his job taken away and decking her job,
and then he leads the crusade.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah. I imagine you've got a little lot of white
collar people who will be watching this episode, watching this
episode episode of South Park going oh yeah, God, I
feel bad for those blue collar guys. Wow. Yeah, automation
and outsourcing all that stuff, Well, it must be tough,
but thank god, not gonna happen to me. And then
a minute does Well, that's what happened when Ford was
closing there. Because Joel used to be very factory, very manufacturing.

(14:08):
When we were in manufacturing base. Yeah, and then I
this rally here. I've experienced this. I remember I was
telling Nicol about this the other day because we saw
a Ford Ranger driving around right, and we all thought
that we're going to get the Ford Ranger contract to
build the Ford Range.

Speaker 1 (14:22):
But we're like, we're going to get the contract. We're
fining jobs are safe, blah blah blah. And me, personally,
I didn't really care if we lost our job because
I was like, I'm twenties. Yeah, I'm gonna find it.
I'll do something else. But I'm looking around you guys,
I'm like, this guy's been working for forty years, he's
fifty six, what's.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
He going to do? You know?

Speaker 3 (14:37):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (14:37):
Absolutely, they've been here since they're like seventeen. That's all
they've ever known. So I'd worry for those guys. And
they told us that we're going to our union guy.
They told us we're going to get out the contract.
The contracts coming, and then they said, oh, big announcement
over in the cafeteria area, and we're like, uh, contract,
good news, good news, good news everyone, And they ran
it us a lot like cattle and were all in
there and even sort of happy. And then the big

(14:58):
big bosses walked in. I was like, oh no, oh okay,
what's going on here? And then security walked in after them.
We're like, oh no, the thing we're gonna make a
gear and then then now that they're gonna be closed,
they have us three years warning. But I remember as
soon as the security walked in, everyone was just like
the mood change just you felt the yeah, and then

(15:23):
it was just it was literally just this, it was yeah,
Now three years warning.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
Is that that's pretty good? That's better, like you've got
a week Well absolutely, I'm.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
Not going to name the of the company. I'm not
exactly sure if it was one or the other. There
was another car and it wasn't for it was one
of the other big top dogs in Australia. Literally put
their workers on a bus and said we're gonna I've
got a meeting across the road at the big to
go to a big car back or something across the road.
So they got on his bus and then they took
him across the street toime. They get off the bus
and said job's gone.

Speaker 2 (15:52):
See you later. Oh fucking oh, that's hard.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
And they got security. Does it taken me one by one.
Essential like security followed them in to take their locks,
clean their lockers out.

Speaker 2 (16:00):
They were taken.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
Across the street off the property. Oh my god, I
told them they had no jobs as of today.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
That's tough.

Speaker 1 (16:07):
Ford did the right thing, right, Oh, linear warning three
years is a pretty good run. And they had counselors
there what not saying I'm trying to have you find
new careers, that kind of thing.

Speaker 2 (16:15):
That did the best possible way.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
But I just remember when that when a security has
walked in and I've experienced that that taken our jobs.
There was tears, there was screaming, there was anger. It
was intense.

Speaker 2 (16:24):
Oh yeah, look, I'll tell you about it from my
point of view. The current state of playing stupid Ford workers, No, no, no,
but you know the current state of play with AI
and everything that. Yeah, I've said this on our shows
in the past. How you know, it's kind of hard
to have a line of work that you've devoted your

(16:45):
life to to be devalued or even eliminated and reading
things like oh but AI, for instance, I mean, let's
talk about AI. I'll provide you with a great opportunity.
You don't have to be a worker being anymore. You
can be your own no burtuit. You can be your
own boss. A lot of people don't want to their
own boss. A lot of people are just happy to
sort of clock in at nine o'clock out at five.

(17:07):
Ye make it up money to sort of keep the
wool from the door, and you.

Speaker 1 (17:10):
Know, people work at four. They're like, I know how
to do this job. I'm happy.

Speaker 2 (17:14):
I come to work a clock, a clock that gives
you sixteen whole hours to live your life. Then a
lot of people happy with that. But and oh god,
who was it? I think was the is it Atlasian?
Do you know you were that company? I think it's
like a big tech company that had one of the
one of the heads on one of the current affair

(17:36):
shows the other night say hey, it's full of great
opportunities for people, you know, and you know it's going
to raise productivity and you know people can make a
lot of money and all this kind of stuff, and
linkol the host was saying, and how exactly and you
couldn't really answer, and I was kind of like, first
of all, yeah, you can't answer, And secondly, you're already

(17:56):
worth like two bill you've won you know, stop telling
the rest of us no, no great opportunities. Is like, well,
that's great for five years down the line maybe, but
how about next week, how the next month can I
make it to their Yeah? Exactly? I mean, am I
going to be, you know, living on fucking Rahmen and locusts?

(18:16):
Am I going to be? Yeah? Yeah? The new food
source of the future?

Speaker 3 (18:21):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (18:21):
Really? I don't know people are talking about people do
talk about it. They're talking about you can eat crickets
or they're a good source of protein.

Speaker 1 (18:29):
Watching where do you find this information? What are your thoughts?
By the way of the guys rocking up, making out,
just getting it on a big sex ball orgy, I
was like, all right, I feel like, you know, that's
a big thing you can't go back from. Randy's just

(18:50):
part of his homosexual game bang and like stands like,
let's go be a part of it.

Speaker 2 (18:54):
I was like, okay then, but this it's like being
in the Union's like collective, collective action, collective bargaining. Yeah. Yeah,
they're not doing it for they're not doing it for pleasure.
They're certainly not doing because they want to know. Fuck dudes,
It's more like, no, no, the Workers United will never
be defeated. That's if you've got to you've got to
get naked and get into a big gang bang. Yeah,

(19:16):
so bad.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
That's why I thought it was interesting to had Cartman
say he was the negotiator at the start and then
he sort of plays no role in how's going forward.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
Well, that's interesting.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
He was the negotiating, he gets the prizes and he
takes his break, and that's pretty much how it works.
You'd be stacking the way at Ford or whatever and
you see the union guy walking around and having a
conversation and you're like, why why is he allowed to
do that? And they go, oh, because he's the union guy.
He sort of he gets his pay rise, and I'm like,
what's a year in between that time. This show is

figure discount. What are your favorite moments from the episode.

Speaker 2 (20:15):
Actually leads into one of those is I think it's Jimbo,
who's who's kind of reluctant to get into the cuttle
partle and so you have to Jimbo.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
Yeah, she was like, I don't want to get any geesta.

Speaker 2 (20:25):
I liked.

Speaker 1 (20:26):
I've mentioned Stan, the transition of standards, dicking it jabs.

Speaker 2 (20:30):
I also really liked.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
The news reports, where they kept going We've got Chris
talking about this, and Harrison he's got maybe information about this,
and I think it's Beth or someone that's like Brad.
I love the various news reporters. All the special ones
are science. One's about science, one's about the weather, one's
on location at the time shift thing.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
You can tell that something is a big news story,
and it's like and now we go to our hip
political reporter. Yeah, and now we go to boots on
the ground or yeah, oh shit serious. I mentioned Kyle
using bull crap earlier, thought that was a pretty good note.
We've talked a bit about Randy and how yeah sort
of hypocritically is and progressive in some ways, but then

(21:08):
they've got one of the people from the future to
be their housekeeper essentially, or to be their nanny or something. Yeah,
and she'll do it for ten turns. Now. Yeah, everyone's
got to take advantage anyway they can. But at the
very end, I just thought that that whole song, now,
that nice little sort of folky number, it's a real
good utopian message. It's like, Wow, wouldn't it be great
if we did all work together? Imagine the people? Yeah,

(21:30):
the future began, which belongs to you Ada And there
also I love the voice that he does for it,
because that's very folky, isn't it. And then just like
it's super gay. Yeah, it's very drug. We know this
would fix everything, but no, but no, it's also makes
us look lame. Yeah, they're not not interested. Yeah yeah,
which is it's a really cynical ending. I gotta say,
it is pretty sad. Yeah, that's okay.

Speaker 5 (21:53):
Remember there are no stupid questions, just stupid people.

Speaker 2 (21:57):
Trivia time.

Speaker 1 (21:57):
My first question for you will be what was the
delivery truck driving down into State two eighty five. At
the very start of the episode, we saw a delivery truck.

Speaker 2 (22:06):
Oh, what was it delivering?

Speaker 1 (22:07):
For the Delicious treat tup. Was seed on the show before?
Was it snacky case snay cake?

Speaker 2 (22:11):
Oh? There we go, speaking of Well, this is when
the Man from the Future rise. What year did he
come from the Man from the first Man from the Future?
Was it three four five? Correct?

Speaker 1 (22:22):
Yes, I'm thinking it's like it's more than a thousse,
like a thousand news in the future.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
I'm like a little bit more roundown. Yeah. Yes.

Speaker 1 (22:29):
My next question for you is what do the boys
accept as an offer for their snow shoveling.

Speaker 2 (22:36):
They initially go eight thousand, she says ten, and then
they go eleven. No, fifteen. I'll be answer it's more
ball breaking, yes breaking, my marses and I have one
more Tribua question. Then, okay, then which bus arrived twelve
hours late? When did that happen the episode? Yes? Indeed,

(22:57):
now when did it happen? What part of the episode?
In the middle of the episode? Okay, when was there
a bus? What was who was on the bus? It
was late? This is a very good question. I've just
got which bus arrives It was the eleven fifteen bus.
Eleven fifteen bus, it was on the bus? When was
there a bus? I have no recollection of a bus.
I know I should have written more notes. My final
one is what is the name? What is the name

(23:20):
of the head of the union union guy? That's a.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
I think if a guy used to host a very
popular weekly entertainment show here in Australia.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
Once the name of the show it well, was it
Dickie Darryl Old, Darryl Darryl Summons? Okay, who's Dickie? I
think Dickie Wilkins. How was that Richard Wilkins. God, I
never had him called Dicky Wilkins. Oh, I've heard him,
but well all the time on on the Today Show,
they're like, but what's what's his what's his weekly entertainment show?

(23:52):
He hosted MTV for a while back in the day.
I'm pretty sick Richid Wilkins is one of those guys
they plugged and played all over the place.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
It's Richard Wiking, that guy I used to always say
on TV and I'm like.

Speaker 2 (24:01):
Why, yes, very much so. He was just embarrassment. Why
is this guy a thing? He's got dirt on someone?
It was just easier he's doing it. It's fine. No
one asks questions, all right, paulis Richard Workman not I never, No,
I've got no time for him. I love cheesypoofs. You

Speaker 2 (25:20):
Do you think everyone should have a nickname like b
Sharb or Pretzels? Oh, give me more names for me
to read out. That's correct.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
The less work the better, I agree, all right. So
the original edit of Goobacs was April twenty eighth, two
thousand and four.

Speaker 2 (25:34):
What do you reckon?

Speaker 1 (25:35):
Was the number one movie at the box office at
that time? I couldn't tell you two thousand and four?

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Have a crack? Was it Fantastic four that out in
two thousand and four? I don't know. I'm just pull
the names out of a hat here.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
So the top three films at the US box office
at this time were Men on Fire was number one?
Oh with Denzel Yes, thirteen going on thirty. What's the
next one is that? Suddenly thirty?

Speaker 2 (25:59):
Yeah? Yeah, I'm suddenly thirty here for some reason?

Speaker 1 (26:01):
Which thirteen going on thirty is a really shit name
for a movie. No, thirteen going on thirty is a
really good name for a movie. Suddenly thirty is a
terrible name for a movie, of course, maybe just because
what I'm used to I Suddenly thirty is just way
easier on a poster.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
Thirteen going on thirty? Have you never heard the term though, because.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
It doesn't sound like a movie you go to see
with your as a younger person, because that's what your
mum and dad say, like, oh, you're thirteen going on thirty.
It reminds you of like, oh, that's what mum says,
I'm watching that movie.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
I don't know. Thirteen go. I like it. I think
it's a much better title than suddenly thirty. I remember
being kind of disappointed when because I remember hearing about it. Oh,
Jennifer Ganna's in a romantic comedy or something like that'll
be good. And then you see the post of the
israel Onans suddenly thirty.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
Well, thirteen going on thirty definitely explains the story a
lot better.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
Absolutely does what it says on the tin Umber three
was killed Bill Volume two? All right? The punish it
just behind that one as well, You're a man, Tarantino.
It did some interview the other day with a podcast
called The Church of Tarantino because he's taken their jabs,
he's got to feel it. Yeah, I think this was
like a more amateurish kind of podcast, because Tarantino has
got his own podcast of course, equal video archives with

(27:06):
his mate Roger Avery.

Speaker 1 (27:07):
Who doesn't have a podcast. Now, honestly, that's that's a
serious question. Which celebrity doesn't have a fucking podcast. I'm
sure there are some out there, not many. I don't
think athletic and imagine that Matt and Ben did their.

Speaker 2 (27:17):
Pot It's coming, It's coming, you know it's coming. But
he did a podcast recently and was very ego driven
because he was like you talking about how they're making
the sequet Once upon a Time in Hollywood, and he's saying,
David Fincher, who made seven and a sequel to it,
Oh yeah, that his ten film, yeah called it's called
The Adventures of Cliff Booth and it's about character after

(27:40):
the film yeah, yeah, sent in the seventies, saying yeah,
and it's good that David's Fincher director, David Fincher's directing
it because me and him we're the best directors. It's like, good,
lord man, you make it really hard to like it.
But he was saying, like, Inglorious Bastards is my masterpiece
once upon a time when Hollywood is my favorite of

(28:01):
my movies, and Kill Bill is the movie that I
was born to make, So must be good to be
that sort of confident. He's I mean, QT can back
it up. But at the same time, it's like, imagine
you're going around saying, well, you know, I think going
down to South Park is my masterpiece of my podcast.
She just fucked we was born to produce though, Well,

(28:22):
that's correct. Reme.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
We watched pop fiction recently and Nicola didn't know. She
didn't know Quentin Tarantina is. She's not a Vivie buff
And when he came on screen, Nicol I was like,
that guy can't act and I was like, no, you can't, No,
he can't. Like why were they hire him? And I
was like that. She said, why did Tarantino put him
in the movie? Thewn I went, because it's Tarantino. She goes, ah,
shes I didn't realize he was that kind of guy
that put himself in movies. And I was like, oh, yes,

(28:44):
oh yes, he's very much a fanboy it of himself
of himself? Yes, all right, but yes so that originally
aired April twenty eight, two thousand and four. Written and
directed by Trey Parker, the episode kicks off with the
second cakes truck is driving down the highway? Now is
that the actual in terminator one? Where does the terminator
think is on a highway somewhere?

Speaker 2 (29:03):
No? No, I think he's like, I think it might
be like griff of Observatory and in la.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
Okay, because this one's don't be like they're crossing the
border kind of thing. Yeah, oh absolutely, yeah, Well the
border is the highway here, isn't it.

Speaker 2 (29:14):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (29:15):
But he arrives literricity boards very much. You watch it
and you're like, this is dominating. I appreciate this. The
I've got here. The alien exits and I'm like, well,
it turns out actually is an alien, I guess you
could say. And then he almost it's his by traffic
and eventually he gets run over.

Speaker 2 (29:28):
It's very slow. Yes.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
The boys are now offering snow shoveling to various driveways.
The first offer is eight thousand dollars, which no one's
ever going to pay that. She comes back with ten.
You beck my bars, becking my bars.

Speaker 2 (29:39):
I love how he's got that very he's got his
minoicless hell man.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
But Carmen is a good negotiat. You've got to give
him that. The kind of guy doesn't take any ship.
Oh yeah, yeah, he will get the best deal for himself.
I mean, fifteen dollars is still a pretty good deal
when you're a kid for shoveling something. I think at
fifteen dollars per driveway, I mean divided by four though,
what that three dollars fifty dollars each when you had
ten or whatever.

Speaker 2 (30:04):
It's like you did ten driveways thirty bucks. That's pretty good,
PEPSI back back in two thousand and four, Ye about
fifty bucks Australian hire, a couple of video games whatever. Anyway,
your weekend set exactly. So Cartman is now he's on
the phone whilst they're working away and Kyle confronts him,
says dude, and he's like, I'm on my brain, I'm
going negotio and I'm allowed to do this. But then
he is that smogo lean alone smoker. Yes, they're having

(30:26):
a bit of a squabble here. He drops the jword
cuts to him with a blood nose, and they said,
we need to come inside. Do you have any band
aids or advantages or whatever? So she lets them in
and they see the news report regarding the man who
is from the future, correct, from the year thirty forty five,
is safe and sound in a government hospital. Yes, But
then they cut to Christina Nallon, who has more and
she explains he's from the year three thousand. We say

(30:48):
three thousand and forty five, we say twenty ten. Will
they say thirty forty five? How they're going to say
it in a thousand years? I think for the first decade,
you say like two thousand and four, yeah, And once it
gets to two thousand, do you say, do you say
twenty ten, twenty fifteen? I say twenty ten, twenty eleven, Yeah,
twy ten was the end, and then it was twenty eleven,
twenty twelve, twenty thirteen. If I was to say, hey,
what's that movie with, it's from the director of the

(31:09):
Day After Tomorrow and it starts John Cusack and Woody
Harrelson's about the end of the world. It is it
twenty twelve or twenty twe.

Speaker 1 (31:15):
Twenty twelve, it'sy twelve yeah, we're calling it twenty twenty
five right now, won't we Some people say twenty ten,
but I think twenty ten and then twenty eleven. Yeah,
I think so. I don't think it was like a
hard written rule. It was just people started doing it,
so someone realized, what's easier just saying twenty They say
two thousand.

Speaker 2 (31:34):
Well, there's no you can't say twenty zh Let's go
back way back in the time. We're saying nineteen oh one,
nineteen hundred.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
And one, we say nineteen oh one, don't we.

Speaker 2 (31:44):
Nineteen oh one? Yeah, twenty nineteen sixty nine.

Speaker 1 (31:48):
We wouldn't say nineteen hundred and one, nine hundred.

Speaker 2 (31:50):
No? No, Yeah, it's weird, isn't it? Funny language, it's fun
a funny creature. Christina Nalan has more.

Speaker 6 (31:59):
The news is incredible, Aaron Experts and scientists have been
with the man from the future for several hours now
and have been able to learn that he is from
the year thirty forty five. His condition is stable, and
speculation continues as to why he has come. Has he
come to deliver a cure for cancer or to fix
something wrong with the past.

Speaker 3 (32:15):
Have to interrupt you there, Christina apparently Brad Morgan is
inside the base with breaking news, Brad, Aaron.

Speaker 7 (32:20):
The scientists have been able to communicate further and have
uncovered that the man from one thousand years in the
future has come to our time looking for work. He
has said that the future is so overwhelmingly overpopulated that
there are simply no jobs in his time, and so
he built a time portal and has come back to
twenty first century America to find a job here.

Speaker 2 (32:39):
Has absolutely astounding. He came back here for work, that's right, Aaron.

Speaker 7 (32:43):
His plan is to get a job here in our
time so that he can put the money he earns
into a savings account which will earn interest and by
the year thirty forty five be worth billions of dollars,
which of course in the future will be worth only
hundreds of dollars, but enough, he says, to feed his family.

Speaker 1 (32:59):
Then Harrison Moore, Harrison has something and he explains that
how the time portal works, and he said that follows
the terminator rules, or you can go back in time,
but you can't go forward. So he's going to be
here forever, unlike the back to the future rules, when
you go back and forth back and forth and which
one has the rule played?

Speaker 2 (33:12):
Silly rules. That's a movie called Time Rider. I've never
heard of it. What's time Writer? Time Rider is basically
about this motocross rider who just goes through a Portland
time he goes back to the Old West, so he's
riding his motorcycle around in the Old West. That's a
real movie. Yeah, yeah, Time Rider, The Adventures of Lyles Swan.
I believe it's called stars a great actor name, and
then this says, the Adventures of It's just awesome. Oh yeah,
it's from like nineteen eighty two or three or something

(33:34):
like that. Time Rider, looking up Time Writers. Looking this
up stars one of my favorite actors who's no longer
with It's a guy named fred Ward. Are you of
the movie Tremors? Yes, I'm like Tremors. Yeah, it is
the other guy in Tremor's Kevin Bacon and the other guy. Okay, yeah,
see Time Writerers was a book series. I didn't realize.
I don't know about those. I just know about Time Writer.
The Adventures of Last One.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
I think it's the Adventures of Time Riders is a
series of teens science fiction novels written by Alex Scarrow.
The Serious consists of nine books and it's pub which
by Puffin Books. When did they come out? Is a
movie based on them and stuff? I don't think they
are They come out in twenty ten. So Time Ride, Time,
Ride Dirt singular the adventure of Lyle Swan. Look at
that poster. It's like a guy from the future on

(34:13):
a murderbike, except as the President Fred Ward.

Speaker 2 (34:18):
That guy was awesome.

Speaker 1 (34:18):
Peter Coyote, he is the government agent for me. T
he's keys, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (34:22):
Like Peter Coyote. Yeah, that is so nineteen eighty two,
isn't it. Hush? Look at that Look at that font Yeah,
oh marvelous.

Speaker 1 (34:29):
And she's got the grids on his on his suit.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
Here you go. Motorcycle rider Lyle Swan is cruising through
the Mexican desert when he accidentally stumbles into a time
travel experiment and finds himself transported back to the Old
West of the eighteen seventies. There he attracts it. There
he encounters an attractive local woman, of course, and a
gang of criminals. Loyel's motorized bike is impressive in the
past until it runs out of gas. Now Lil must

(34:53):
rely on his wits, take care of business and return
to his own time. He's got to take care of business.
Take care of business. There. This movie is available on
YouTube in its entirety, so yeah, track it down. But yeah,
absolutely the Adventures of Wild Swan time writer. Those rules
are not just playing silly about the rules, playing stilly. Yeah,
got to help Parker.

Speaker 1 (35:15):
But as explaining here though, the guy from the future
here's gonna be here to stay because he's got terminator rules.

Speaker 2 (35:19):
He can't go back in time.

Speaker 1 (35:20):
Yes, Randy and Sharon now watching two on the news,
and you know it's a big event when everyone's watching
the news.

Speaker 2 (35:25):
Plus also that's just good storytelling by Parker and or Stone,
perhaps you know, making it a gag, but also explaining also, yeah,
but he can't go back. Yeah, and so like okay, well,
what's the thing about it's either there, it's therefore or
butt right, Yeah, it's not stories don't go and this
and this and this is like Okay, this guy has
come here, therefore, this guy's come here, stuck here, go

(35:49):
back therefore or therefore. But yeah, yeah, clever guy worth
all those billions that the paramount is paying.

Speaker 1 (35:56):
It And also sort of explains the sacrifice he's willing
to take because he's never gonna see his family again
because the future version himself is now in the past,
so he doesn't exist in the future anymore. So he's
now going to sacrifice seeing his family ever again, but
knows that they're going to be supported financially in the future.

Speaker 2 (36:10):
It's kind of poignant.

Speaker 1 (36:11):
Yeah, it's kind of like you know these people they
jump ship for a reason.

Speaker 2 (36:13):
Oh yeah, as I said recently, you don't leave home
unless home is screwed. Is screwed?

Speaker 1 (36:18):
Yes, But as I was saying, Randy and Sharon are
watching it on the news, the president is said to
make an announced. We don't see the president making an announcement. No, no,
But you know when the president's about to make a
state of it, what is the state.

Speaker 2 (36:27):
Of the Union that they say? No, start of the
Union is like a thing, a regular thing, like once
a year or something where they talk about yeah, okay, yeah,
we're doing great, you know America number one. It's more
like just addressing the nation and Brad he announces that
another one has arrived and since the job at Wendy's
paid off for this one is once the same for
his family.

Speaker 1 (36:47):
So it's like words gotten back. Oh shit, that worked,
I'm coming back as well. Now Sharon is tucking in
stand and stands.

Speaker 2 (36:53):
He's just being a kid. So excited people from the future.
This is great. It's going to be so exciting.

Speaker 1 (36:57):
She's like, yeah, sure, keep whatever. This has gone to bed, happy, smiling.
I'm like, that's how I would be. Oh God, if
aliens came, I would.

Speaker 2 (37:03):
Go to bed going this is so cool.

Speaker 1 (37:05):
I think, honestly, as a sci fi fan, if you
love sci fi, you just you hope that you are
here when we get contact from another world, right, Oh sure,
I mean hopefully it's not an invasion, but would you
just love to see some sort of communication, like know
that there's other life out there.

Speaker 2 (37:20):
I forgot which alien invasion movie it's in. There's like,
if they've come this far, they're not coming to like
say hi and share everything with us. They're here for
bad reasons.

Speaker 1 (37:29):
Oh man, I love Mars attacks, like yeah, yeah, Jack
Black Cops it, yes, indeed spoiler alert from Mars Attacks.
But then a bunch of people from the future arrive,
so clearly it's gonna be overpopulated in south Park very
very soon. The next day they asked missus landers if
they want to shovel, the gamage's already hired and immigrant

(37:51):
to do it for twenty.

Speaker 2 (37:51):
Five per cents. They're low board.

Speaker 1 (37:53):
They got low board indeed, like, what would you do?
It's not even worth it, you know, why would you
do that? So they go to the next house and
turns out every driveway is.

Speaker 2 (38:00):
Being yes, are we actually going to use the term
go bacs in this, let's say, guys in the future.

Speaker 1 (38:05):
Okay, but the new support now says a whole families
or whole families now arrive and they're like, well, if
I'm never guessing my family again, I'm probably that sort
of defeats the purpose that, right, why would you arrive
with the whole family come back? I guess because they
don't like the fact that they maybe that just the
world's overpopulated, it's not a nice place to live. The
whole point was to come back in time make money,

(38:26):
so your family's financial support, So why would you bring
your family back?

Speaker 2 (38:29):
You've got a whole You've got a few pioneers who
are kind of like, let's let's test the waters to sleep.
This actually works, And then you've got people who don't
want to be separated from their families.

Speaker 1 (38:38):
Yes, but the purple gou is an ecdoplasmic side effect
of the time travel. They're explaining the goo that's all
over their back, the term go babsy. This here gives
scientists a chance to understand the American life in the future.
And Chris the scientist, he explains that they've evolved into
a humanoid mix of all races here. It's not just
one race. Race is no longer an issue in the future.
They all speak a complete mix of English, Chinese, Turkey,

(39:00):
a bunch of other languages. It's basically, we're all just
one person now, or just one race the whole world.
But then Darrel Weathers of the construction workers Union, he's
holding a rally, he's holding a meeting here, and he says,
we've worked hard to get paid to a level that
we can survive and put food on our tables. And
now they've come and they've done.

Speaker 2 (39:15):
What Yeah, well does he even say took your gyms? Yeah,
he says it, Yeah, ticking gems. I love more.

Speaker 1 (39:23):
It's not when they say it's when they say yeah,
it's the Lord have.

Speaker 2 (39:27):
Got more and more sort of degenerated over times, I
was like, they took our jobs, and they're like, I
think it's to get gyms from the get.

Speaker 1 (39:35):

Speaker 2 (40:06):
This is whole crowd. Well, I ain't standing for this film,
all right, folks.

Speaker 3 (40:10):
My name is Daryl Weathers and I'm with the Construction
Workers' Union.

Speaker 2 (40:14):
I work with a lot of fine men who have.

Speaker 3 (40:16):
Families to feed, and I don't know about y'all, but
we worked long and hard to get our pay up
to a level where we can make a decent living.

Speaker 2 (40:23):
And now these people from.

Speaker 3 (40:25):
The future showing up and offering to do the same
work for next to nothing.

Speaker 2 (40:29):
They took guard jobs. Yeah, they're down, they're hard.

Speaker 5 (40:33):
They did.

Speaker 7 (40:34):
We're in the moving business fourteen years. We've been working
our butts off. Now these future folks come in and
we can't get work nowhere, like the cardiobs, they took
your yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:45):
Yeah, what about us in the fast food business.

Speaker 3 (40:48):
The restaurants are firing us because the future people work
for a lot less.

Speaker 2 (40:52):
They did gurd job.

Speaker 4 (40:55):
They dear job, your job into fucking kids. To me
and my friends started her own snowshoveling business. We were
trying to be responsible and make money, you know, but
then the people from the future came along, and now
we're out of work too. Oh they took her yip her.

Speaker 2 (41:12):
Yo stands here. He says. It's affecting kids too. You know.
They wanted to be enterprise like yeah. They bought into
the into the American dream of like h yeah, your work, yeah,
you work hard well, you learn the value of the
dollar and also earning a dollar yeah yeah, but no,
that's been taken away from it.

Speaker 1 (41:33):
Yeah, and then yeah, I love that. No one says
anything the ticket, Yeah, don't help you the ticket.

Speaker 2 (41:38):
Yeah. Now.

Speaker 1 (41:40):
There is a caution sign at the two eighty five
highway where people crossing acrossing mornings of aliens arriving and
then another huge group of people arrived from the future.
We come back from commercial and stand. He gets home
at eight pm. He explains that he was at the
rally and he realizes they've hired the new house keeper
here who she works for ten cents on Tuesdays and
Thursdays ten cents an hour. And then he says the

(42:02):
whole they took their jobs. He says goubacks and they
can't believe he's used such an offensive term. Well, yeah,
he yelled him for the slur, and they say that,
you know, they're taking the jobs that we don't want
to do. The meeting just wanted my job, yes, he's like, No,
the job that I had, I wanted to swim you
my thing is meaningless. But it's a job that I made.
I wanted pocket money.

Speaker 2 (42:20):
I was doing it. I enjoyed my job, and they've
taken that from it. But even someone else who's working
like a minimum wage job or you know, a menial
job or whatever, that's still what comes with that is
some degree of pride of like, I put in my
eight hours, I got paid for it. That money is
putting food in my kid's mouth and keeping a roof
over my family's head. You're allowed to have some degree
of pride in A job is a job. A job

(42:41):
is a job. Absolutely.

Speaker 1 (42:43):
It's one thing I've never done is ridicule or mock
someone for having a lower paying job. It's like, no, no,
if you get a job and you're going to work
and you're working, fucking good on you.

Speaker 2 (42:51):
Absolutely. Yeah. So for stance, I wanted my job. Yeah,
he's speaking for a lot of people, not just him.

Speaker 1 (42:57):
Yeah, and it's very important they have this message in
the episode as well as ever to say, look, people
are being affected here that shouldn't be affected as well.
You know, it's not fair. I mean there are pros
and concepts.

Speaker 2 (43:07):
Good on future guys for you know, taking the initiative
and thinking outside the square. But at the same time,
people want their g I made that job, that was
my job, that that job was didn't exist until I
made it, you know. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (43:18):
So then they give him the spiel about you know,
they've gone through hardship, and then the stand should be
thankful and they're not raising their son to be an
ignorant time cist, and then they double.

Speaker 2 (43:26):
Down for a time. Yeah, but for racism birth the
time I got okay, yeah, yeah, gotcha, got yeah, kay. Cool,
that's actually pretty funny. I like the way they did that.

Speaker 1 (43:35):
It would confuse me though, why they dumbed it down
explained what it meant, because they don't use it for
the rest of the episode, I know, but it would
It makes sense if they've explained it, like this is
going to be the term going ford, so we're not
using goobas we're using I don't know, because that's the
opposite time against it. Yeah, but anyway, I didn't need
it to be explained.

Speaker 2 (43:51):
Not in that way. I just liked it for the
joke of like, okay, yeah, just the way that Barker
doesn't think like a recerpor for time.

Speaker 1 (44:00):
Yes, then we get the O'Riley factor, and he's doing
it live all right, you must say all right a lot,
I guess he must everything all right, all right, And
he has a pissed off white trash red neck conservative
and an aging hippie liberal douche. It's very again, very
what they call the liberal guy a hippi douche. You
gotta have her both sides because a lot of the

(44:20):
time this is who you say.

Speaker 2 (44:21):
And you're like, dude, like I agree with you. But God,
you're a douchebag. Could you have not picked a better
person to do this very valid message?

Speaker 1 (44:29):
Yea, And he says that they obviously the redneck guy
says gerbs and the liberals says the problem is American
and he is the theory that we're all immigrants here
basically what Lisa says, coming to America America America.

Speaker 2 (44:42):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (44:42):
Actually, on that note, how do you compare how the
Simpsons handled this topic compared to how south Park candidate
south Park was far more ob a bit more blunty
handed it. They didn't handle it as much. I don't
think they delves dove as deep. I think there were
certainly bits in coming to Home America, which we recently
did on four figure discount. That bit with Lisa was like, yeah,

(45:05):
we all immigrants and that kind of thing. It's the
kind of message that can be cut down to that.
But just overall, Vibal, we need to not let immigrants
into the town, immigrants into the country of onto Earth,
because these are from the future. I just think the Simpsons,
I wanted these Simmons handled it better.

Speaker 2 (45:19):
It does feel that way.

Speaker 1 (45:20):
I think they think they got the message across without
having to resort to the kind of levels here that
stuff like the homosexual orgy and the using the term
goo backs that kind of thing. I think they Simpson's
got the same message across without needing all that. It's
a knee jerk reaction for me to say, yeah, I
think coming to America might have handled better. But then
I'm just thinking of how sort of effectively just that
line from Lisa about how we're all immigrants it worked

(45:43):
for me. I think these guys want to sort of
delve into it a little bit more, but maybe don't
do it as effectively, or they raise more questions than
they provide answers. Yeah, anyway, everyone in the crowd gets annoyed.
They're all using the catchphrase of thee Yeah, everyone in.

Speaker 2 (45:57):
The crowds is I rate about it.

Speaker 1 (45:59):
We're now at the school and the school board says
that Garrison must now teach him both present day English
and future Speak, and the boys like what why? And
he puts up the explaining verbs. The boy threw the
red ball. I did appreciate Jimmy stuttering you you speak,
And then Kyle goes and his rand he goes, we
want to live in our time. You know if you want,
if you want to live in our time, you need
to learn our language. Which how haven't we've heard that?

(46:19):
Oh my goodness, yes, obviously, like there is pros and
concert argument as well, and they don't really dove into
a here, but I think there's an issue they.

Speaker 2 (46:26):
Needed to address as well.

Speaker 1 (46:27):
Oh yeah, there are a lot of issues that arise
with immigration, and I do think they ticked off a
lot of boxes here. Did they dove into them much?
Probably not, but they at least acknowledge them.

Speaker 2 (46:38):
Dude, hold on, there's this book. Man.

Speaker 4 (46:40):
If they want to live in our time, then they
should learn our language.

Speaker 2 (46:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (46:44):
Hey, now, these immigrants have a right to retain their culture.
Who are we to say our language is best. They
deserve to have an education just as much as you do.

Speaker 2 (46:52):
Thank you, aging hippie liberal douche. You bet you.

Speaker 4 (46:57):
Do?

Speaker 2 (46:57):
You know? Okay, now let's get back to it kids.
What kind of verb is this?

Speaker 3 (47:02):
The sad girl puts balls in her mouth?

Speaker 2 (47:05):
Or in future speak, of course, all right, balls? Right? Right? Then?
What the rally?

Speaker 1 (47:10):
And Darryl says that the congressman has sent the message
saying that they sympathize with them, but the solution of
shooting them all is human inhumane.

Speaker 2 (47:17):
So it appears the.

Speaker 1 (47:17):
Government aren't gonna help. So what they're gonna do, They're
gonna stop the future from happening. They think, how can
we do that? One guy Chet suggests we should force
global wanting to happen, so we we enforced the new
ice age so that future doesn't exist.

Speaker 2 (47:29):
How to get an ice age from global warming?

Speaker 1 (47:31):
And he basically says that either global was gonna take
millions of years. So that's that's ridiculous. And science has
proven this isn't a fact. And I'm pretty sure I'm
watching this going is proven it's happening now.

Speaker 2 (47:42):
Yeah, I mean there are also this is two thousand
and four, that's true. There are a few social media
accounts I've got to stop following, mainly because it's like, hey,
check out those floods in Paraguay. It's like, oh man,
this looks bad. I'd rather just unfollow. I'd rather just
use it, just look, don't look to use this, rather
just bury my head in the problem is, these problems

(48:02):
won't die when you look away. Correct.

Speaker 1 (48:04):
The boys are now walking down the street and they
see the future people everywhere. I love that they've now
gone for like fancy card load rider.

Speaker 2 (48:11):
The low rider stuff was a little it's a step
too far.

Speaker 1 (48:16):
I had to get a little bit later on things
like that. But they're at Wendel's Burgers.

Speaker 4 (48:20):
Oh dude, can you speak in present day English?

Speaker 2 (48:25):
Please? Good night? Help you?

Speaker 4 (48:30):
Yeah, I want a double cheeseburger and fries. Tamp No,
a double cheeseburger and fries.

Speaker 2 (48:41):
What we can't understand you at all.

Speaker 4 (48:50):
I'm trying to order a double cheeseburger. No, not a
chicken sandwich. I want a goddamn cheeseburger and some god empries.

Speaker 2 (49:00):
You fucking go backs down marsh ah.

Speaker 1 (49:05):
Ah unfortunately ready and Sharon right behind him when he
says that. But oh, it's just this is the moment
in the episode where you realize even kids are being affected.

Speaker 2 (49:15):
And I wouldn't even say that.

Speaker 1 (49:16):
The message here is that they're trying to say that
that kind of mentality has infiltrated even kids as well.
These kids were actually affected. Oh yeah, but also that
it just spreads very Yeah, it does spread. And this
is not the way to react to the situation. You
should never be using terms that terms like that and
that kind of thing. But you can understand stands frustrations
like fuck me, you've taken my jobs and now I

(49:36):
just want to order a fucking cheezburger. It was so
much easier last week.

Speaker 6 (49:40):
You know.

Speaker 2 (49:41):
It's just incodibly frustrunning when you can't communicate. Yeah, communication
is key. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (49:45):
So now at the rally again they suggest they should
all take off their clothes and start getting gay. It's
not a bad idea. If everyone turns queer, then there'll
be no children. This is different. Heature, I ain't trying queer.
I'm surprised I didn't go the cheap gag of having
Garrison here about it. True mercy Garrison at all until
the end when he's doing he's helping to.

Speaker 2 (50:04):
See the world.

Speaker 1 (50:05):
But like you feel like he would have been all
about this right, all of stuff engaged.

Speaker 2 (50:09):
Yeah, but even if they're not as effective as doing
it as like maybe you or I would hope. Yeah,
Parkerans don't have a message they want to get across,
and I don't think they want to dilute it by
having Garriss office. I going about tim.

Speaker 1 (50:21):
Yeah, and again Cartman was the obvious one to go
for that. He chose Dan Garrison was the obvious.

Speaker 2 (50:26):
They're not using their traditional mouthpieces, and they're not always
going for the well, they are sort of going for
a cheap if they're turning this into a big gay orgy.
But at the same time, not having traditional quote unquote
bad or inappropriate characters involved, or having just regular people
involved kind of heightens the gag and makes the point

(50:47):
a bit.

Speaker 1 (50:47):
More not gonna lie I would appreciate at least once
in the AUDU said, what are you doing?

Speaker 2 (50:54):
Slave you?

Speaker 1 (50:57):
So he says, they're going to go to the part
of town where they all asked start humping each other
until they're all gone back to the future, so just
make him disappear. We're out at Little Future as opposed
to Little Italy or Little Everything career. Yeah, yeah, and
it's like very much like the ghetto. And they arrive
naked and they all start making out and getting funky.

Speaker 2 (51:14):
How do you like that? Go back?

Speaker 1 (51:15):
Yeah, Rainy and Stan and now at the South Park
Center for a seismic activity Randy's work, and Stan is granded,
which is ways to come to his dad's work, and
Randy's all about to study his day at work and
the boss like this is awkward. I thought, didn't you
get my phone message. He's like, no, oh, you've been replaced.
They took my job.

Speaker 2 (51:33):
They're taking our jobs. Now.

Speaker 1 (51:38):
It's breaking news and Harrison is at the time border
and they say there's a mass protest, there's breaking out
and it's all men. They're having sex, the big massive orgy.
They've sucked and screwed themselves across the state. And Randy
is now the spokesperson for it all because he's lost
his job, and he says he's going to be turning
everyone gay, and standards are sitting there, she's just like
Jesus Christ. I'm like, oh, dude, you were kind of parties.
I guess they've gone too far with it, but you

(52:00):
were part of this, this crusade. And he says, what's
all we can do is try, Harrison is to make
everybody disappear by going gay. And then the liberal hippie
says that they have a right to exist, and they say, Stan,
what do you think and he says, well, it's wrong
to call them gobacs since there humans trying to make
their lives better. Yes, their time is crappy, but if
we let all of them come, then ours is going

(52:21):
to be just as crappy too.

Speaker 2 (52:21):
So that's the thing. It's like, oh yeah, if there's
a we want to help, if there's a message or
there's a point of view that Parker and Stone have, Yeah,
it's encapsulated in that. We'll say, we've got.

Speaker 5 (52:32):
To work for a better future. We've got to join
hands for tomorrow. Take the first step, and you will see.
The future begins with you and me. We can start
to make a difference if we want it for our children,
and recycle that can and plant that tree, because the future.

Speaker 2 (52:51):
Begins with you and me. Yeah, it's waggy. The future
begins with you and the immigrants are fading to work.
We're doing it.

Speaker 5 (53:01):
We've got to work for a better future. We've got
to join hands for tomorrow. Take the first step and
you will see.

Speaker 4 (53:09):
Wait, wait, hold on, wait a second.

Speaker 2 (53:11):
This is gay.

Speaker 4 (53:12):
This is really gay. Yeah, this is even gaer than
are the men getting in a big power having sex
with each other. Okay, sorry, my bad.

Speaker 2 (53:19):
Everywhere, Back in the pile, Back in the pile, everyone.

Speaker 3 (53:22):
We're going back to the park, everybody, We're going back
to the pile.

Speaker 1 (53:27):
And then we get the work for the better future.
Song over the closing credits and that's the end. Yeah,
so a fine episode. I think I liked it more
just because every time I say it, ticky jobs laugh
mass off.

Speaker 2 (53:36):
That is funny.

Speaker 1 (53:37):
You think about trading the writers like what they took
our job, But you can just imagine trade is going
to get gibbs. It feels like something's just improvised, Like
fuck that works.

Speaker 2 (53:44):
Oh absolutely. I mean I'm listening to one of our
previous Going Down to the South Park episodes. I think
I said how much I can imagine Parker or Stone
as a young person just saying just putting on a
funny voice to say shit, yeah and yeah. That just
becomes the did GiB Yeah you do it in the

(54:04):
high school playground or you do it in the college
door remembers that good one, and all of a sudden,
across the world decades later, you've got a couple of
guys in a podcasting studio who.

Speaker 1 (54:14):
Are just saying, yeah, yeah, but I was like a virus.
I'm just on the IMDb page. Just a bit of
trivia before we wrap up this episode. Sure, so, it
says a visitor. One of the aliens can be seen
on the rooftop on the top left side of the
Little Future still plant little visitors there from the opening episode.
Ah okay, the Goubac's written language is seen is actually
ASC two, a way of representing characters on computers. Specifically,

(54:37):
their language is the extended ASC two characters one seven
nine to two one eight, which are single and double
lines that can be put together.

Speaker 2 (54:43):
To draw boxes.

Speaker 1 (54:44):
There is a root to eighty five in Colorado, apparently,
but it is a US highway instead of an interstate.
There is an Interstate I two eighty five. It is
the Beltway or Ring Road, and in circles Atlanta, Georgia.

Speaker 2 (54:54):
So it's a federal highway as opposed to state highway. Okay,
interesting all, I'll run it all night long.
