WEBVTT
00:00:00.228 --> 00:00:00.768
Hey everybody.
00:00:00.768 --> 00:00:18.797
This is on screen, off screen show where we like to talk about our weekly media intake and how we, how, what, how our mood affects, how we watch it, and how it affects how we live.
00:00:19.367 --> 00:00:25.128
Um, this week we have Lauren, The best ever.
00:00:25.187 --> 00:00:28.307
and me, I'm also here.
00:00:28.862 --> 00:00:30.932
And I'm sick, so I apologize.
00:00:31.297 --> 00:00:31.417
The
00:00:31.533 --> 00:00:32.073
Uh
00:00:32.212 --> 00:00:33.131
not feeling the best.
00:00:35.253 --> 00:00:37.023
uh, no, not the best.
00:00:37.023 --> 00:00:37.563
ever.
00:00:37.832 --> 00:00:39.932
Got a lot of growth to happen over here.
00:00:40.232 --> 00:00:43.412
Um, Conlin is missing today.
00:00:43.563 --> 00:00:47.012
Um, he should be back next week, so sorry.
00:00:47.103 --> 00:00:50.523
I know he makes some good points occasionally, uh, but.
00:00:51.978 --> 00:00:53.478
Probably wouldn't have this week.
00:00:53.478 --> 00:01:05.418
So, and you'll hear about his thoughts next week Anyway, so with that being said, Lauren, we just started talking about your topic, so let's get started there.
00:01:05.447 --> 00:01:06.798
What did you think?
00:01:07.087 --> 00:01:09.996
Okay, so, uh, spoilers everybody.
00:01:09.996 --> 00:01:14.137
I watched Elio, uh, it's the new Pixar, Disney movie.
00:01:14.137 --> 00:01:16.956
Um, and I feel like.
00:01:17.706 --> 00:01:19.986
I've been disappointed in Disney a lot lately.
00:01:21.246 --> 00:01:24.516
Um, but I wasn't disappointed in this one.
00:01:24.996 --> 00:01:30.037
Um, animation's great, uh, story I thought was great.
00:01:30.367 --> 00:01:40.566
Um, feel like there wasn't like anything getting pushed down my throat and, uh, it was, um.
00:01:43.057 --> 00:01:44.167
I like wanna talk.
00:01:44.167 --> 00:01:50.826
I just told Josh, I was like, it made me cry, but like, I don't wanna like talk about that scene.
00:01:50.826 --> 00:01:53.647
'cause I'm like, that's a, that's a spoiler, but it's also so good.
00:01:54.486 --> 00:02:01.986
Um, so, uh, I guess when you watch this, is it on your list at all, Josh?
00:02:02.587 --> 00:02:09.923
Uh, no it's not so viewers, it's not on my list because apparently it's a credit scene and it's not actually in the movie.
00:02:10.312 --> 00:02:15.712
I am highly irritated with the lizard thing being all over my social media.
00:02:16.312 --> 00:02:17.633
I find it irritating.
00:02:18.048 --> 00:02:30.437
I'm not enthused by it at all, and I'm very sick of it, but I, to be fair, I don't know much about the movie, but I don't like that, so that's why it's not on my list.
00:02:30.467 --> 00:02:41.207
Um, for any listeners, this is a fairly new movie, so from this point out, spoiler warning, um, Lauren's going to talk very openly.
00:02:41.207 --> 00:02:42.802
You can just go ahead and skip to the next.
00:02:43.728 --> 00:02:46.907
Chapter and we will be talking about my topic.
00:02:46.997 --> 00:02:48.048
But go ahead, Lauren.
00:02:48.048 --> 00:02:49.337
Speak for you The.
00:02:50.407 --> 00:02:56.257
So Elio is about this kid, Elio, who his parents passed away and his.
00:02:56.917 --> 00:03:00.727
Aunt is taking care of him, and the aunt has like a full-time job.
00:03:00.967 --> 00:03:10.206
She works with the military, wanted to be, uh, an astronaut, but she puts the astronaut dreams on hold so she can raise Elio.
00:03:10.866 --> 00:03:16.567
And Elio is depressed and can't, like, doesn't feel like he fits in anywhere.
00:03:16.956 --> 00:03:23.616
And so he watches this thing at a museum about how we're trying to contact aliens with the, um.
00:03:24.711 --> 00:03:26.271
Not the Hubble telescope.
00:03:26.542 --> 00:03:27.891
That's not what that was.
00:03:29.722 --> 00:03:34.852
it's the satellite we sent with like samples of, uh, earth and like, things like that.
00:03:35.331 --> 00:03:39.141
And, um, so he's like, oh my gosh, aliens are coming here.
00:03:39.262 --> 00:03:43.012
So he goes out onto the beach and tries to get abducted by aliens.
00:03:43.012 --> 00:03:45.771
Like almost every night he like has flashing lights.
00:03:46.012 --> 00:03:48.711
He writes in the sand just with arrows pointing to him
00:03:49.323 --> 00:03:51.362
I see why you've connected to this character.
00:03:52.627 --> 00:03:56.917
Yeah, I often go out at night hoping the aliens will abduct me.
00:03:58.507 --> 00:04:07.296
Um, and uh, so he starts like acting up in school because his whole thing is just trying to get abducted by aliens.
00:04:07.657 --> 00:04:12.306
And then finally, like the aunt has enough and she tries to like send him off to this camp.
00:04:12.667 --> 00:04:14.016
Um, and.
00:04:14.662 --> 00:04:27.411
While he's there, he actually did make contact with aliens with his ham radioed at home, and the aliens come and they abduct him thinking he's like the leader of Earth and they don't know he's a kid.
00:04:27.411 --> 00:04:28.766
And so he's like trying to tell them.
00:04:29.541 --> 00:04:37.041
Uh, he's trying to keep up this facade of being earth's leader so that they will accept him into the council and he doesn't have to go back.
00:04:38.271 --> 00:04:43.372
and they send a clone of him back to Earth so that no one will know that he's missing.
00:04:43.791 --> 00:04:55.882
Uh, while they're like having these diplomatic missions, uh, and this other alien race that's very like hostile and warlike pops up and also wants to be a candidate for the council.
00:04:57.291 --> 00:05:05.002
immediately they're like, oh, well we think we'll just run away to a far end of the galaxy where you're not and not accept you coming into our council.
00:05:05.031 --> 00:05:06.531
'cause we don't want the war.
00:05:07.192 --> 00:05:14.122
And, uh, Elio's like, wait, they were gonna just drop him off at earth so they could run away.
00:05:14.122 --> 00:05:19.701
And he's like, what if I talk with the, the war alien and get him to leave you guys?
00:05:19.701 --> 00:05:21.141
Then could I stay on the council?
00:05:21.141 --> 00:05:21.591
And they're like.
00:05:22.281 --> 00:05:22.492
Yeah.
00:05:22.492 --> 00:05:23.002
Yeah, we could.
00:05:23.036 --> 00:05:25.851
If if you wanna do that, go ahead do that.
00:05:25.851 --> 00:05:38.961
So he goes over to talk to the war aliens, doesn't go well, gets thrown in jail, and the aliens are like, we're definitely gonna just kill this whole galactic um, council.
00:05:39.891 --> 00:05:42.291
they didn't accept us and you're gonna watch it.
00:05:42.591 --> 00:05:48.742
And so he starts trying to escape and ends up finding the war General's son.
00:05:49.161 --> 00:05:54.382
And he had like written some things down on how to get this war general to listen to him.
00:05:54.411 --> 00:06:00.891
'cause he like went onto the alien computer to like ask how to persuade this guy.
00:06:01.971 --> 00:06:04.072
And he is like bargaining chip.
00:06:04.747 --> 00:06:10.177
he is like, talks to the, the alien son and he is like, do you wanna be a bargaining chip?
00:06:11.197 --> 00:06:13.987
And it's like just a, a kid his age basically.
00:06:14.317 --> 00:06:15.276
And he's like, yeah.
00:06:15.547 --> 00:06:28.627
And so he ends up taking him back to the galactic, um, uh, ship and got the dad to like, um, down.
00:06:29.497 --> 00:06:32.346
like, okay, like if as long as you don't hurt my son, like.
00:06:32.601 --> 00:06:44.211
We leave and they come back and Elio's having fun with this other alien and the other alien's like, Hey, like he's like this worm, but everything else looks mechanic.
00:06:44.362 --> 00:06:46.521
And he is like, yeah, I'm not on my care pace yet.
00:06:46.911 --> 00:06:48.291
Uh, and I don't want to.
00:06:49.476 --> 00:06:53.197
then I'll have to like go to war and I don't wanna war, uh, things.
00:06:53.197 --> 00:06:54.937
He is like, I wanna play, I wanna have fun.
00:06:54.937 --> 00:06:56.437
I wanna be a kid still.
00:06:56.617 --> 00:07:00.156
And the dad's like, as he's coming over to the planet, he's like, I have his care pace.
00:07:00.216 --> 00:07:04.687
He got stolen because he was just, he, he was too vulnerable.
00:07:04.776 --> 00:07:06.906
So we have to make sure he gets put into this.
00:07:07.326 --> 00:07:13.266
So then Elio's like, we need to make a copy of you, put you into the care pace and it'll be good.
00:07:13.326 --> 00:07:15.232
Well, of course that doesn't go good.
00:07:16.026 --> 00:07:16.987
War happens.
00:07:17.047 --> 00:07:20.706
Elio gets kicked back to his planet with the sun.
00:07:21.516 --> 00:07:29.257
then, uh, anyway, they had to make the sun come back because he needed warm They need like a really hot climate.
00:07:29.737 --> 00:07:40.687
And, um, EEO the whole time thought that the aunt still hated him and loves the duplicate more than him.
00:07:41.047 --> 00:07:41.291
And then.
00:07:42.336 --> 00:07:51.247
You see from the aunt's perspective, she's like clocking all the things that are different with this clone, and she's trying to get Elio back the best way.
00:07:51.247 --> 00:07:52.237
She knows how.
00:07:52.567 --> 00:08:05.857
And then Elio finally sees that like he sees her, that he sees him and actually loves him, then she tries to help him get the alien back to the dad.
00:08:06.487 --> 00:08:10.536
And when they get there, the alien dad.
00:08:11.151 --> 00:08:16.252
Rips himself out of his care pace and like they're little worms.
00:08:16.552 --> 00:08:23.992
Uh, and so he like comes out of there and wraps up his son, like swaddles his son and like holds his son.
00:08:24.021 --> 00:08:25.461
'cause he thought his son was dead.
00:08:25.762 --> 00:08:29.422
Uh, but he was like warming him up when he swaddled him everything.
00:08:29.601 --> 00:08:35.361
And that was like making me cry because this dad, that was like, once you go into the care pace, you're not supposed to come out.
00:08:35.812 --> 00:08:36.442
Um.
00:08:37.236 --> 00:08:49.567
to have like the dad just like rip open his armor to get to his son, which is like an act that they said was, um, humiliating.
00:08:49.897 --> 00:08:53.976
Uh, you bring shame on everybody, like the dad didn't care.
00:08:53.976 --> 00:08:57.667
Like his love for his son was more, and that, that got me crying.
00:08:57.667 --> 00:08:59.317
I was like, that's fine.
00:08:59.407 --> 00:09:00.486
'cause at this point.
00:09:01.611 --> 00:09:09.022
Um, Ellio had lost his translator, so he didn't know what the aliens were saying, so it was like just showing this part.
00:09:09.022 --> 00:09:10.942
There was no English dialogue.
00:09:10.971 --> 00:09:13.282
It was just basically the actions.
00:09:13.461 --> 00:09:24.201
And I was like, that was such a powerful choice to make sure that there weren't words there and that it was the actions that showed this part.
00:09:24.201 --> 00:09:26.182
Anyway, so that made me baw my eyes out.
00:09:26.451 --> 00:09:28.131
Um, and then.
00:09:28.537 --> 00:09:30.336
Everybody went back to their families.
00:09:30.697 --> 00:09:40.057
Galactic war ended and he became an honorary guest of the council, even though they found out he was a kid, uh, they're like, we'll come back in a few years because you did end a war.
00:09:40.417 --> 00:09:42.517
Um, but like, go grow up first.
00:09:43.897 --> 00:09:49.267
So that was a very quickly told story of this movie.
00:09:49.386 --> 00:09:52.322
And I think it was like, mean, I would.
00:09:53.572 --> 00:09:58.042
Give it a seven, which is more than I've given most Disney lately.
00:09:59.511 --> 00:10:10.881
But that one scene I would say is a nine'cause it's like so impactful and I loved how all the choices they made in that scene.
00:10:11.152 --> 00:10:11.871
It was awesome.
00:10:13.322 --> 00:10:18.423
Well, it is very good to hear that Pixar has gone back to show.
00:10:18.423 --> 00:10:19.202
Don't tell.
00:10:19.712 --> 00:10:20.072
Um.
00:10:21.888 --> 00:10:29.477
If we look at like up, right, he showed, um, the love and the romance and the wedding and stuff they didn't tell you.
00:10:30.077 --> 00:10:32.748
Um, but they kind of lost their way for a little while.
00:10:33.677 --> 00:10:35.837
I haven't seen it very often since.
00:10:36.798 --> 00:10:38.508
But it's good to hear they're doing that again.
00:10:38.538 --> 00:10:44.087
'cause that is such a good wholesome way to tell that part of a story.
00:10:44.268 --> 00:10:47.087
Um, so that, that's really good for me to hear.
00:10:47.822 --> 00:10:51.722
Um, so you rated it a seven overall, but that one seems a nine.
00:10:52.162 --> 00:10:52.581
Yeah.
00:10:52.822 --> 00:10:53.152
Yeah.
00:10:53.152 --> 00:10:53.511
Seven
00:10:53.732 --> 00:10:53.793
Okay.
00:10:54.591 --> 00:10:56.667
uh, that one staying a nine because it was.
00:10:57.381 --> 00:11:05.091
Like I, I was enjoying watching the movie, but I was like, oh, this isn't really all that special, I don't think.
00:11:05.511 --> 00:11:14.062
But then that one scene, it was like, you are just so used to this one character acting out in violence.
00:11:14.481 --> 00:11:17.662
And then to have like no words or anything.
00:11:17.662 --> 00:11:20.721
It was just having him like rip it open and then like go to his son.
00:11:20.721 --> 00:11:21.562
I was like, oh my gosh.
00:11:23.182 --> 00:11:24.591
Just bawling my eyes out.
00:11:24.591 --> 00:11:25.371
It was fine.
00:11:26.633 --> 00:11:27.143
Oh good.
00:11:27.621 --> 00:11:28.042
But yeah,
00:11:28.102 --> 00:11:38.092
Um, so my understanding of you giving it a seven is, it's good, it's worth a watch, but it wouldn't make your top Pixar movies.
00:11:38.991 --> 00:11:41.091
no, I wouldn't like.
00:11:42.517 --> 00:11:50.616
I don't even know that I would watch have this on a yearly watch or anything, but like if somebody's like, oh, I haven't seen Elio, I'd be like, oh, let's put it on.
00:11:50.677 --> 00:11:51.096
That's good.
00:11:51.157 --> 00:11:52.236
You should see this one scene.
00:11:54.126 --> 00:11:55.567
The rest of it's pretty good too, but
00:11:56.028 --> 00:11:58.607
Do you have any Pixar on a yearly watch?
00:12:01.716 --> 00:12:08.317
I'm trying to think, I should know this off the top of my head.
00:12:09.501 --> 00:12:11.032
The Pixar movies.
00:12:12.123 --> 00:12:13.202
Monsters Inc.
00:12:14.102 --> 00:12:21.123
Oui inside out up Finding Nemo The Incredibles
00:12:21.981 --> 00:12:23.812
I would say Incredibles.
00:12:24.118 --> 00:12:24.437
Story
00:12:26.032 --> 00:12:27.412
Toy Story is an honor.
00:12:27.471 --> 00:12:33.471
That's like whenever I think Pixar, I think Toy Story and so I'm always like, I don't watch much Pixar.
00:12:35.477 --> 00:12:36.028
Bug's Life.
00:12:37.533 --> 00:12:38.163
Brave,
00:12:38.751 --> 00:12:43.761
I like Bugs Life, but I have not seen it in years.
00:12:44.091 --> 00:12:47.812
Um, I like Brave.
00:12:47.841 --> 00:12:53.662
It's not a yearly watch for me, but I really like it and I really like the music Brave.
00:12:55.113 --> 00:12:55.712
but Wally.
00:12:55.802 --> 00:12:56.432
So, yeah.
00:12:56.432 --> 00:12:58.413
You said Wally is a yearly watch for you,
00:12:58.611 --> 00:12:59.152
yeah.
00:12:59.852 --> 00:13:00.332
but not oui.
00:13:01.226 --> 00:13:02.481
Oh, ouie is too.
00:13:02.481 --> 00:13:02.631
I
00:13:02.748 --> 00:13:03.038
Okay.
00:13:03.142 --> 00:13:03.501
one.
00:13:03.892 --> 00:13:04.402
Yeah.
00:13:04.522 --> 00:13:04.971
I love Ouie.
00:13:05.013 --> 00:13:06.993
It's just like that's a big shot at Conlin.
00:13:07.023 --> 00:13:11.493
'cause he hates Wally and he loves Ratitude, but uh, okay.
00:13:12.393 --> 00:13:14.222
Monster Zinc inside out.
00:13:15.022 --> 00:13:17.241
Ooh, I Monsters, Inc.
00:13:17.451 --> 00:13:21.562
Is probably like, not yearly, but close.
00:13:22.202 --> 00:13:22.232
Okay.
00:13:22.251 --> 00:13:23.361
like Monsters Inc.
00:13:23.697 --> 00:13:31.761
I, cocoa is one that I'll watch, but it's not a yearly one.
00:13:32.616 --> 00:13:36.937
But I think it might start being on my, like Halloween watch.
00:13:43.417 --> 00:13:44.586
It was good music too.
00:13:45.817 --> 00:13:46.716
Um,
00:13:48.258 --> 00:13:51.648
Cocoa is only good for the last five minutes.
00:13:51.648 --> 00:13:55.217
Other than that, it's the longest movie I've ever watched in my entire life.
00:13:56.072 --> 00:13:56.611
It is, yeah.
00:13:56.841 --> 00:13:58.716
Cocoa's not a sit down watch.
00:13:58.716 --> 00:14:01.052
For me, it's a, I'll play it in the background.
00:14:03.471 --> 00:14:04.221
Um,
00:14:05.913 --> 00:14:08.942
Uh, for me, Wally, uh, not Wally.
00:14:08.942 --> 00:14:11.523
Wally's like a, every few years Monsters Inc.
00:14:11.523 --> 00:14:14.523
Is a little bit more popular for or higher on my list.
00:14:15.062 --> 00:14:21.273
Ouie Cars and The Incredibles and the First Inside Out movie is great.
00:14:23.043 --> 00:14:25.533
Um, toy Story I think is super overrated.
00:14:25.682 --> 00:14:28.352
I like finding an email, but I haven't watched it in a really long time.
00:14:29.102 --> 00:14:30.033
I should probably watch it.
00:14:30.633 --> 00:14:31.533
I love brave.
00:14:31.533 --> 00:14:33.153
I think brave is super underrated.
00:14:35.017 --> 00:14:35.527
Yeah.
00:14:35.736 --> 00:14:44.106
I love quoting the, when the dad is pretending to be her and he's like, I wanna be single for the rest of my life and run with my,
00:14:47.102 --> 00:14:48.788
Yeah, super great stuff.
00:14:50.493 --> 00:14:50.643
Oh,
00:14:52.897 --> 00:14:53.346
yeah.
00:14:53.841 --> 00:14:54.131
Okay.
00:14:55.687 --> 00:15:03.817
Yeah, I think, um, with E Elio I would probably put it on the bottom of my favorites of Pixar,
00:15:04.923 --> 00:15:06.812
Bottom of favorites.
00:15:06.812 --> 00:15:07.472
Yes, it does.
00:15:07.626 --> 00:15:08.287
of favorites.
00:15:08.346 --> 00:15:08.437
Yeah.
00:15:08.613 --> 00:15:09.572
Bottom of favorites.
00:15:09.602 --> 00:15:09.812
Okay.
00:15:11.852 --> 00:15:12.873
Good stuff.
00:15:12.903 --> 00:15:15.003
All right, we're gonna go on to my topic.
00:15:15.123 --> 00:15:15.633
Um.
00:15:17.102 --> 00:15:23.763
As you know, I had a little over two hours of new topics to talk about last week.
00:15:25.352 --> 00:15:33.423
I was not really in the mood to continue on watching with a bunch of new stuff, um, after that experience.
00:15:33.423 --> 00:15:38.342
So I went to stuff I've seen before.
00:15:40.923 --> 00:15:41.342
Sorry.
00:15:41.403 --> 00:15:41.822
Um.
00:15:44.388 --> 00:15:49.128
Every year I usually watch the specials on top from top gear.
00:15:49.187 --> 00:15:54.168
They're called the Christmas specials because the first one happened to come around Christmas time.
00:15:54.677 --> 00:15:56.327
The rest of'em really haven't.
00:15:56.538 --> 00:15:59.567
Um, so they're called Christmas specials.
00:15:59.898 --> 00:16:00.888
They're not really.
00:16:01.368 --> 00:16:10.773
Um, so for those of you who don't know in top gear every few years, uh, the three of them, Jeremy Clarkson.
00:16:11.628 --> 00:16:18.528
Richard Hammond and James May do some travel thing, right?
00:16:18.528 --> 00:16:20.658
So the first one is in America.
00:16:21.138 --> 00:16:34.668
Uh, they do a challenge to see if it was cheaper and better to buy and then sell your car, um, instead of renting a car for your vacation.
00:16:34.998 --> 00:16:36.798
So they go and.
00:16:37.548 --> 00:16:46.368
Uh, they get a Camaro and a Cadillac that are all really old and in terrible condition and a Dodge Ram.
00:16:46.427 --> 00:16:48.857
They're all just like the Dodge Ram is dented up, right?
00:16:48.857 --> 00:16:50.748
They had a budget of a thousand dollars.
00:16:50.957 --> 00:16:53.207
So they bought these like crappy, crappy cars.
00:16:53.538 --> 00:16:59.028
They drove to, uh, across to another state.
00:16:59.148 --> 00:17:00.857
Uh, they ended in Louisiana.
00:17:00.857 --> 00:17:02.238
I'm not sure where they started.
00:17:03.677 --> 00:17:04.038
Um.
00:17:04.518 --> 00:17:07.097
And then they just do these challenges along the way.
00:17:07.097 --> 00:17:08.387
They race each other.
00:17:08.508 --> 00:17:16.367
Um, in America, they try and get the other shot by,'cause they're in the deep south, so they painted each other's cars.
00:17:16.367 --> 00:17:21.048
So the one says Hillary for president, the other one says, NASCAR sucks.
00:17:21.077 --> 00:17:25.637
And you know, uh, the other one is like gay love, um, stuff.
00:17:25.637 --> 00:17:28.157
This is from 2007, remember?
00:17:28.428 --> 00:17:34.008
Um, and so they, they were going and they were having a good laugh at about it until like.
00:17:35.042 --> 00:17:39.063
They actually stop at a gas station and piss off some people by their phrases.
00:17:39.063 --> 00:17:42.363
And then they're like, oh, well this is a little bit more serious than we were thinking.
00:17:42.363 --> 00:17:46.173
So they like clean it off and they rush out of there and whatever.
00:17:47.012 --> 00:17:48.992
Um, the next one they go to Botsa.
00:17:49.488 --> 00:17:55.157
The next one they go to Vietnam, Bolivia, middle East, India, Africa, Burma.
00:17:55.188 --> 00:17:57.167
And the last one for top gears.
00:17:57.198 --> 00:17:58.188
Patagonia.
00:17:58.637 --> 00:18:00.917
I've started watching the grand tour ones.
00:18:00.917 --> 00:18:02.867
I watched the beach buggy ones again.
00:18:02.867 --> 00:18:05.147
I watched their feed the world.
00:18:05.718 --> 00:18:07.607
Um, Mozambique one.
00:18:07.607 --> 00:18:11.778
I watched the Columbia Special Survival of the fittest and International Buffoons.
00:18:11.778 --> 00:18:14.178
Vacation is where I just finished.
00:18:14.748 --> 00:18:16.758
Um, so I travel all over the world.
00:18:17.208 --> 00:18:25.367
Doing these ridiculous fun road trips where they take cars where they're not quite supposed to go, uh, in Patagonia, right?
00:18:25.367 --> 00:18:31.397
They're driving across the Alps in V eight cars.
00:18:31.607 --> 00:18:44.163
The one is in a Italian sports car, one is in a V eight Mustang, the other one's in a Porsche, and they're like rock crawling these cars, um.
00:18:46.038 --> 00:18:48.738
I absolutely love these specials.
00:18:48.768 --> 00:18:51.048
I find it absolutely wholesome.
00:18:51.288 --> 00:18:52.788
I find it inspiring.
00:18:52.788 --> 00:19:13.307
There's a number of road trips that like if this podcast were to take off and I could afford to do it, I would take like you and Conlan on a road trip where we would build crazy cars and pull pranks on each other and do fun little challenges and stuff.
00:19:15.063 --> 00:19:35.702
I've always thought that that would be like a top way to spend my life and like they got to do it and I get to watch them do it, and they have a really great friendship and an utter respect for each other, and they make fun of each other, and it's funny and it's good clean, wholesome entertainment.
00:19:36.782 --> 00:19:38.823
It's on my yearly watch.
00:19:40.067 --> 00:19:45.708
We're gonna do top 10 here in a few weeks when we get to our one year mark.
00:19:46.067 --> 00:19:57.228
And I think I'm a little higher on, on these than I was last year because I like, I've seen these thousands of times.
00:19:57.528 --> 00:20:04.097
I know exactly what is going to happen to all of these things, and yet I still love it every single time.
00:20:04.097 --> 00:20:06.018
Like I said, I watch these every year.
00:20:06.708 --> 00:20:08.087
I'm watching them currently.
00:20:08.298 --> 00:20:13.548
I will continue to watch them, uh, until I finish rewatching them this year.
00:20:14.057 --> 00:20:18.708
Um, the only negative I have is they're done.
00:20:18.798 --> 00:20:19.817
They're not doing anymore.
00:20:20.028 --> 00:20:20.688
It's gone.
00:20:21.198 --> 00:20:24.948
No more specials, no more top square gear, no more grand tour.
00:20:25.548 --> 00:20:28.907
It's donezo and I'm like, that is so sad.
00:20:29.478 --> 00:20:35.238
And there's one that they started filming that I'm never gonna get to see because of COVID.
00:20:36.291 --> 00:20:37.071
Oh, gross.
00:20:37.788 --> 00:20:39.917
They went to Russia, they had their cars.
00:20:39.948 --> 00:20:42.077
They were spotted there doing some filming.
00:20:42.077 --> 00:20:43.907
They were, weren't able to finish it.
00:20:45.261 --> 00:20:45.471
Ugh.
00:20:46.067 --> 00:20:49.038
And so there's one more lost footage out there.
00:20:49.157 --> 00:20:50.178
I'm not gonna get to see.
00:20:50.208 --> 00:20:50.688
It's just sad.
00:20:51.951 --> 00:20:58.342
The Patagonia one, is that the one where they're like, wake up on a ski hill or what?
00:20:58.342 --> 00:21:00.741
Which ones where they wake up on a ski hill?
00:21:01.698 --> 00:21:04.548
Uh, that one is a scandy flick.
00:21:04.577 --> 00:21:05.928
It's from the Grand Tour.
00:21:06.107 --> 00:21:07.428
It's not from Top gear.
00:21:07.926 --> 00:21:08.467
Oh, okay.
00:21:08.627 --> 00:21:10.728
that's where they do The ski hill thing.
00:21:10.847 --> 00:21:19.968
That's where, uh, Jeremy picks an Audi, which is like, I always think that they never pick Audis because it would make their challenges too easy.
00:21:20.657 --> 00:21:20.837
Um.
00:21:22.323 --> 00:21:23.462
Not biased at all.
00:21:23.553 --> 00:21:27.242
Uh, as an Audi lover, it's not biases.
00:21:27.603 --> 00:21:30.182
They, they just know that Audis are too good.
00:21:30.363 --> 00:21:46.323
Uh, um, all jokes aside, yeah, no, Patagonia is, they start in Argentina and their goal is to get to what I think is the most beautiful place in the entire world.
00:21:47.238 --> 00:21:49.367
And I would love to go there.
00:21:49.518 --> 00:21:54.407
Um, they're trying to get to, I can't remember what it's called.
00:21:55.188 --> 00:21:56.837
I'm sick, please.
00:21:57.967 --> 00:21:59.257
The brain fog is real.
00:22:00.137 --> 00:22:00.617
Yeah.
00:22:02.178 --> 00:22:03.228
Tier Del Fuego.
00:22:03.228 --> 00:22:06.678
They're trying to get to Sierra del Fuego, which is the southern tip.
00:22:06.678 --> 00:22:09.498
It's the southernmost city in the world.
00:22:10.038 --> 00:22:13.698
Um, it is the last checkpoint till you get to Antarctica.
00:22:14.387 --> 00:22:16.157
Um, they.
00:22:16.637 --> 00:22:27.498
Are unable to get there this time because there's some, uh, bad blood between Argentina and uh, Britain.
00:22:28.307 --> 00:22:33.798
Um, so they get kicked out before they're actually able to finish that one.
00:22:34.428 --> 00:22:41.958
Um, but no, they, like, they talk about history in these specials, which is something I love.
00:22:42.647 --> 00:22:44.627
Um, it is.
00:22:45.153 --> 00:22:46.833
Great friendship between them.
00:22:47.192 --> 00:22:51.843
I highly, highly recommend, like I get, not watching all of top gear.
00:22:52.292 --> 00:23:04.323
Um, if you're not a car fan, going back and watching them review a car from 2007 that nobody's gonna buy in 2025 because it's 23 years old at this point.
00:23:04.833 --> 00:23:08.252
Um, not really, but 20 years old.
00:23:09.423 --> 00:23:09.903
I get it.
00:23:11.252 --> 00:23:18.032
That's not gonna be that entertaining for you to see how they review a Kia Sorento from 2006 or whatever they're gonna do.
00:23:18.093 --> 00:23:23.282
Like I get, but like yearly watching the specials.
00:23:24.992 --> 00:23:26.613
It's a great way to spend your time.
00:23:27.573 --> 00:23:29.823
It, I, like I said, I, I find it inspiring.
00:23:29.853 --> 00:23:33.663
I have a ton of road trip ideas I would absolutely love to do.
00:23:35.163 --> 00:23:39.123
Um, there's an all off-road track that goes from.
00:23:39.438 --> 00:23:45.978
North Carolina, I think on the East coast all the way to the west coast.
00:23:46.038 --> 00:23:47.147
It's all off-road.
00:23:47.147 --> 00:23:50.897
You don't need a license to drive on it because it's all off-road track.
00:23:51.827 --> 00:24:00.617
And I saw somebody do it on a dirt bike and like, I think it would be very cool to do it like they did the beach buggies.
00:24:00.617 --> 00:24:04.817
You take some ridiculous car and you and a couple of friends.
00:24:06.917 --> 00:24:13.188
Go see how well you handle this experience.
00:24:13.248 --> 00:24:16.458
Um, you see so much of the world that way.
00:24:16.698 --> 00:24:18.647
You go to a lot of unexpected places.
00:24:19.488 --> 00:24:22.518
I would absolutely love to do stuff like that.
00:24:23.448 --> 00:24:23.688
Um.
00:24:25.791 --> 00:24:26.842
Yeah, I've.
00:24:27.182 --> 00:24:27.393
Yeah.
00:24:27.531 --> 00:24:32.811
Seen some top gear and I'm always so jealous of all the places they get to go.
00:24:33.291 --> 00:24:42.692
And uh, yeah, there's, I have a couple road, um, road trips planned out and it was funny'cause I was talking to my.
00:24:43.446 --> 00:24:46.866
Coworkers this week and I was like, Hmm, maybe I'll go to Washington.
00:24:47.436 --> 00:24:48.727
And they're like, state?
00:24:48.817 --> 00:24:53.616
And I'm like, yeah, I really wanna go to Olympia National Park.
00:24:53.977 --> 00:24:54.277
And I was
00:24:54.288 --> 00:24:54.468
Yeah.
00:24:54.757 --> 00:24:56.856
and if I drive there, I can take my dog.
00:24:58.282 --> 00:24:58.573
Yeah.
00:24:59.676 --> 00:25:07.267
So it's like a lot of places that I'm just trying to make sure that my car is ready to go for long trips all the time now.
00:25:07.717 --> 00:25:10.807
Uh, so I can just get up and go.
00:25:10.807 --> 00:25:10.866
Um.
00:25:13.537 --> 00:25:23.527
But yeah, I their trips so much because that is something that like, I wanna travel, I wanna do road trips.
00:25:23.977 --> 00:25:27.426
Um, probably not through the Panhandle of Texas.
00:25:27.426 --> 00:25:28.386
Done that one.
00:25:28.446 --> 00:25:29.317
Don't need to do it again.
00:25:32.886 --> 00:25:41.946
But yeah, there's, I, I've seen, I think I've seen more of Grand Tour than I've seen of just top gear.
00:25:43.041 --> 00:25:43.836
So I need to get more.
00:25:44.678 --> 00:25:46.597
Like I said, I recommend watching the specials.
00:25:46.627 --> 00:25:49.028
There's a lot of stuff that is worth watching.
00:25:49.087 --> 00:25:51.637
Even if you go to like the non-specialist episode, um.
00:25:52.923 --> 00:25:58.323
Like, there's one where they do a challenge, where it's like unrealistic.
00:25:58.353 --> 00:26:10.472
Nobody in real life is gonna live their life this way, but they try and find the most, um, inconspicuous supercar.
00:26:11.252 --> 00:26:18.393
So like their goal is to travel through a poor part of the world and not get their car photographed or whatever.
00:26:19.413 --> 00:26:30.182
So like they choose an Audi RRA and a old Ferrari and a Porsche or whatever, and they're just do these challenges and stuff like Top Gear, grand Tour.
00:26:30.512 --> 00:26:31.742
Great way to spend your time.
00:26:32.432 --> 00:26:41.913
Um, with the Grand Tour, I would stipulate don't watch the, um, celebrity portions'cause that sucks.
00:26:42.752 --> 00:26:44.373
Um, it's not funny at all.
00:26:44.853 --> 00:26:47.137
And like in top gear, they used to have the stake.
00:26:48.258 --> 00:26:54.738
Um, where he would go and put lap times in the cars and it was very entertaining and they would say something ridiculous.
00:26:54.738 --> 00:27:02.538
Like some say he doesn't eat bread, but he was born from a fish and whatever.
00:27:02.837 --> 00:27:04.157
It's the Stig, right?
00:27:04.157 --> 00:27:06.048
They always introduce him in funny places.
00:27:06.167 --> 00:27:07.428
He goes, he sets a lap time.
00:27:07.428 --> 00:27:09.708
You get to see how fast the car does it woohoo, whatever.
00:27:10.788 --> 00:27:15.982
In the grand tour, it's the American and it's like he's an idiot and he's fat.
00:27:16.863 --> 00:27:17.702
That's funny.
00:27:18.063 --> 00:27:19.532
It's like, no, it's not.
00:27:20.042 --> 00:27:28.022
And then like in top gear, uh, they have celebrities come on and they all drive around the track to see how fast they can do it compared to other celebrities.
00:27:28.593 --> 00:27:31.232
Um, and it's entertaining and they talk about stuff.
00:27:31.292 --> 00:27:44.823
And in the grand tour, they can't do it for copyright reasons, so they kill the celebrities and it's like, oh no, Ryan Gosling fell from the sky and splattered on the ground.
00:27:45.182 --> 00:27:45.932
How tragic and.
00:27:47.042 --> 00:27:50.042
It's all staged and not very funny and whatever.
00:27:50.163 --> 00:27:54.752
I would skip those portions of the show and do when I go back and watch them.
00:27:55.292 --> 00:27:59.252
Um, but like I would watch all of TopCare.
00:28:00.242 --> 00:28:01.772
I love cars, even the old ones.
00:28:01.772 --> 00:28:04.202
I'm like, yeah, that car's in my budget now.
00:28:04.442 --> 00:28:06.633
I can afford that Maserati today.
00:28:06.782 --> 00:28:09.212
I won't'cause it's crap, but I can.
00:28:09.603 --> 00:28:12.333
Um, uh, so
00:28:13.071 --> 00:28:13.491
Uh,
00:28:13.563 --> 00:28:13.803
great.
00:28:13.803 --> 00:28:16.113
Yeah, you should watch at least the specials.
00:28:17.362 --> 00:28:21.892
yeah, I was gonna ask what's your, like, do you have a favorite episode or,
00:28:23.768 --> 00:28:32.492
Oh, it's so hard to pick, so I'm gonna go, okay.
00:28:32.571 --> 00:28:32.872
some.
00:28:34.772 --> 00:28:40.623
so International buffoons vacation, they take RVs and they're in Nevada.
00:28:41.718 --> 00:28:43.428
And they trick out these RVs.
00:28:43.637 --> 00:28:55.518
So James May turns his RV into a pub and uh, Richard Hammond buys a truck with just a tent on top of it.
00:28:55.938 --> 00:29:06.528
And, uh, Jeremy Clarkson turns his into a bathroom, but also makes the roof a boat so he can drive from the roof.
00:29:06.768 --> 00:29:08.028
'cause he is big into boating.
00:29:08.028 --> 00:29:09.317
He's a boating fanatic.
00:29:09.708 --> 00:29:10.127
So.
00:29:10.982 --> 00:29:13.442
He drives his RV from the roof.
00:29:13.442 --> 00:29:16.232
And I'm like, that's so clever.
00:29:16.353 --> 00:29:17.732
It's so funny.
00:29:18.032 --> 00:29:21.992
Um, it's like people should make RVs that way.
00:29:21.992 --> 00:29:24.153
That is very interesting.
00:29:24.452 --> 00:29:31.113
Like thing that they did, um, they go out and do stuff like.
00:29:32.403 --> 00:29:35.702
The trio of them are just so great together.
00:29:35.702 --> 00:29:36.603
They're so funny.
00:29:36.603 --> 00:29:38.282
The way they riff off of each other.
00:29:38.553 --> 00:29:40.383
They always pull pranks on each other.
00:29:40.772 --> 00:29:48.692
Um, X, Y, z whatever, um, survival of the fattest is in Mongolia.
00:29:49.232 --> 00:29:57.272
They literally get dropped in the middle of Mongolia and then their airdropped parts to a car.
00:29:57.813 --> 00:30:04.053
So they build a car in the middle of Mongolia and their challenge is to escape.
00:30:04.202 --> 00:30:13.083
And like the map that they're given is like this hand drawn and it's like wobbly bridge and you get to the bridge and it's like fallen over.
00:30:13.413 --> 00:30:15.633
And so that's why it's wobbly.
00:30:15.962 --> 00:30:24.573
And then they're called, they get to like the bumpy bit and it's like this, um, think Lord of the Rings, this like swamp that Gollum is leading.
00:30:24.573 --> 00:30:25.833
Frodo and Sam through.
00:30:26.133 --> 00:30:26.192
It
00:30:26.271 --> 00:30:26.571
gosh.
00:30:26.792 --> 00:30:31.113
is like this rough, terrible thing.
00:30:31.143 --> 00:30:44.282
Um, Columbia, they get car four wheel drive cars and they are trying to photograph specific, um, animals for Amazon's screensavers.
00:30:44.643 --> 00:30:53.022
Um, so like they go and they find a hippo and a condor and a tiger or a Jaguar, and, uh.
00:30:53.897 --> 00:30:55.038
A bear, right?
00:30:55.038 --> 00:31:00.167
So they're just driving around the wilderness doing these things, feed the world.
00:31:00.228 --> 00:31:02.087
They're trying to solve world hunger.
00:31:02.417 --> 00:31:10.968
So, uh, Jeremy Clarkson gets a Nissan truck and he puts a ice maker in the back with a generator.
00:31:11.538 --> 00:31:18.198
And his idea, the goal is to take fish into one of the poorest par parts of Mozambique.
00:31:18.708 --> 00:31:22.307
Um, but like the, the, it's not that far.
00:31:22.623 --> 00:31:32.462
It's like a few hundred miles, but like right on the coastline they have fitty and here in this small town they don't.
00:31:32.823 --> 00:31:42.242
Um, Richard hangs them off the back of his bike and his idea is to like drive them as he drives along on this motorcycle.
00:31:42.573 --> 00:31:49.472
And James May puts an aquarium in the back of his Mercedes car and fills it with water and fish.
00:31:51.002 --> 00:31:53.192
And like he doesn't put a roof on it.
00:31:53.192 --> 00:31:53.613
Yeah.
00:31:53.732 --> 00:31:57.363
So it keeps like dumping on him and stuff like that.
00:31:57.423 --> 00:32:05.853
Um, beach buggies, they go into Africa again and they build beach buggies and they huff to cross the Namibian Desert.
00:32:06.393 --> 00:32:12.002
Um, Patagonia we talked about, they get V eight cars and they drive.
00:32:12.032 --> 00:32:16.593
They're trying to, drive them to Tierra del Waco, the southern tip.
00:32:16.712 --> 00:32:18.182
And, um.
00:32:18.857 --> 00:32:24.587
Play car football with, uh, a Patagonian team and they don't quite make it.
00:32:24.917 --> 00:32:33.617
but they, they're, uh, Jeremy is a big fan of Butch Cassidy.
00:32:34.127 --> 00:32:41.448
So they go to Butch Cassidy's home and he starts reenacting scenes from the movie and stuff.
00:32:41.718 --> 00:32:42.137
Uh.
00:32:45.317 --> 00:32:56.028
Burma, I think is when they buy trucks like semi-truck and they have to drive to the River Kwai and build a bridge across it.
00:32:56.028 --> 00:33:01.907
So they're referencing the movie all the time and they go and they build a bridge and drive their trucks across it.
00:33:02.478 --> 00:33:10.313
Um, Africa, I don't remember which one this one is.
00:33:11.462 --> 00:33:12.542
I just watched it.
00:33:14.913 --> 00:33:15.363
Oh.
00:33:16.053 --> 00:33:26.343
They take A-B-M-W-A Subaru, uh, WRX and a Volvo, and they're trying to find the source of the River Nile.
00:33:26.673 --> 00:33:32.103
And so they're being, um, a adventurers and stuff.
00:33:32.252 --> 00:33:40.262
Um, India, uh, they are driving across India for some reason.
00:33:41.343 --> 00:33:43.803
I don't remember what the overall purpose is.
00:33:44.432 --> 00:33:46.262
Uh Oh They're trying to build relations.
00:33:46.262 --> 00:33:56.522
They're trying to be ambassadors for Britain and India, just so they're, they take British cars to try and show them how good India, show India how good British cars are.
00:33:58.323 --> 00:34:07.532
Uh, middle East, they literally drive through Iraq, Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Israel and Palestine during the Iraq war in.
00:34:08.463 --> 00:34:18.123
Little sports cars, Mazda Miata, Mazda MX five, uh, Fiat, and uh, BMWZ three.
00:34:18.123 --> 00:34:21.123
So like these convertible tiny cars.
00:34:21.483 --> 00:34:30.273
Um, and they're trying to be three wise men and they're trying to bring gifts to the baby Jesus in Israel.
00:34:30.932 --> 00:34:31.413
Um,
00:34:32.831 --> 00:34:33.052
Oh
00:34:33.182 --> 00:34:34.233
it's so funny.
00:34:36.182 --> 00:34:37.202
Uh, Bolivia.
00:34:37.233 --> 00:34:41.523
Like I said, Bolivia is probably my personal favorite.
00:34:42.063 --> 00:34:59.643
Um, it's, they're dropped off in Bolivia on this river bank with their four by four cars that they bought side unseen, and they have to cross the desert to get to the Pacific Ocean or, or cross the jungle.
00:35:01.143 --> 00:35:02.342
So it starts.
00:35:03.032 --> 00:35:14.072
They have to like get their, like the first 20 minutes of the episode is just them trying to get their vehicles off the raft that their cars had been left on.
00:35:14.132 --> 00:35:16.023
'cause they were literally just like dumped there.
00:35:17.043 --> 00:35:18.182
Like they didn't have help.
00:35:18.333 --> 00:35:23.643
There was nobody helping them unload or even line up the, the raft to be straight.
00:35:23.643 --> 00:35:25.382
So they had to like get'em off.
00:35:25.472 --> 00:35:30.572
Uh, Richard's Land Cruiser wasn't running, so it had to get pole started.
00:35:31.592 --> 00:35:31.922
Um.
00:35:32.972 --> 00:35:49.503
James May picked a little Suzuki that was red, but he, when in the ad it said it was blue and its four wheel drive wasn't working and they were all making fun of, uh, Jeremy's car because it was a land cruiser.
00:35:50.672 --> 00:35:54.242
No, it was some very unreliable car.
00:35:54.902 --> 00:35:56.913
And they're like, yeah, that's never gonna make it.
00:35:56.972 --> 00:35:57.963
It's a piece of crap.
00:35:58.532 --> 00:36:01.083
And so they're, they're riffing on each other.
00:36:02.268 --> 00:36:11.358
Um, like I said, Vietnam, um, they go back to this one.
00:36:11.358 --> 00:36:14.208
They're riding motorcycles across Vietnam.
00:36:14.657 --> 00:36:22.458
They were given a budget of like a million dong, but it roughly translate to like a little over a thousand US dollars.
00:36:22.458 --> 00:36:27.228
So they like couldn't buy a car, so they decided to get motorcycles and.
00:36:28.112 --> 00:36:32.822
Jeremy Clarkson hates motorcycles, so he's whining the whole way and crashing.
00:36:32.822 --> 00:36:34.293
And Richard's having a great time.
00:36:34.293 --> 00:36:39.932
And James May picked the most pathetic little crappy bike that you could possibly think of.
00:36:41.012 --> 00:36:42.452
And they buy each other presents.
00:36:42.452 --> 00:36:47.612
And they all break each other's presents because they're on motorcycles and you can't carry them properly.
00:36:48.333 --> 00:36:54.273
Um, and the first real one, both Swana is, um.
00:36:55.833 --> 00:36:59.943
Where they drive across Africa and it makes this like really wholesome.
00:37:00.003 --> 00:37:04.322
Like I count the USA special, but it's not really the same as these other ones.
00:37:04.623 --> 00:37:20.373
If you start with Top Cures, Botswana Special and end with Grand Tours, Botswana special, it's like this whole like circle where they go back to their first one and they do it over again with modern vehicles and it's like, I'm excited to get there.
00:37:20.492 --> 00:37:22.952
I absolutely love these specials.
00:37:24.663 --> 00:37:29.818
They're good, clean, wholesome, entertaining, greatness, and I love them.
00:37:31.822 --> 00:37:35.782
Yeah, I see clips all the time and it always makes me laugh.
00:37:36.891 --> 00:37:38.992
Like the one where he's like, I'm a genius.
00:37:38.992 --> 00:37:45.202
Sometimes my genius scares me and he has like the uh, log tied behind and like right after he says that,
00:37:45.418 --> 00:37:46.197
Africa Special.
00:37:47.163 --> 00:37:47.463
Yep.
00:37:47.492 --> 00:37:48.333
Africa special.
00:37:49.233 --> 00:37:53.043
Sometimes my genius is So good you can hear it or whatever.
00:37:53.043 --> 00:37:53.342
Yeah.
00:37:53.722 --> 00:37:54.012
Yeah.
00:37:55.083 --> 00:37:57.182
So my genius is so good.
00:37:57.452 --> 00:38:06.693
It generates gravity and he said like the phrases they come up with, the pranks they pull on each other is so good.
00:38:06.932 --> 00:38:10.382
Um, yeah, you should watch them.
00:38:10.472 --> 00:38:11.643
Everybody should watch them.
00:38:11.702 --> 00:38:12.512
They're fantastic.
00:38:14.106 --> 00:38:15.396
Yeah, I have that.
00:38:15.396 --> 00:38:19.387
I was like,'cause I think I've seen most of Grand Tour.
00:38:19.777 --> 00:38:23.902
It's just the, um, top gear I need to start making a dent in.
00:38:25.253 --> 00:38:28.217
Well, like I said, at least just watch the specials.
00:38:28.307 --> 00:38:38.873
There's like a lot of good stuff there if you ever want, but I watch the specials every year And it's awesome and I love it every single time.
00:38:41.302 --> 00:38:45.891
And this is the year is do you usually watch at the same time of year or
00:38:46.248 --> 00:38:53.657
No, uh, most of the time it would probably fall around Christmas just because I don't actually like Christmas.
00:38:54.378 --> 00:39:07.068
Um, and in order to get away from Christmas music and Christmas movies and Christmas topics, um, I would, that's probably when it usually comes.
00:39:07.847 --> 00:39:17.268
Um, and I usually take a couple of weeks to do it, but like I said, last week I watched so much new stuff that I hadn't seen before.
00:39:17.268 --> 00:39:26.088
I was just like, I just, I wanna turn on something and not have to focus on it or analyze it and just enjoy.
00:39:27.467 --> 00:39:35.507
Um, I was very much in the mood for wholesome and good stuff, which is why I think to odd Thomas hit so well for me.
00:39:36.003 --> 00:39:37.652
And Notting Hill didn't.
00:39:38.342 --> 00:39:39.963
But it?
00:39:39.963 --> 00:39:46.563
led me to turn on the top gear specials and I will report on the rest of the grand tour specials next week.
00:39:46.592 --> 00:39:48.273
'cause I'm gonna continue watching them.
00:39:48.981 --> 00:39:49.271
Good.
00:39:50.132 --> 00:39:55.052
'cause now I'm sick and another excuse to watch.
00:39:55.052 --> 00:39:55.862
Familiar.
00:39:55.862 --> 00:39:56.702
Good content.
00:39:56.972 --> 00:39:57.452
I think.
00:39:57.996 --> 00:39:58.356
Yeah.
00:40:00.092 --> 00:40:03.992
Well, sorry guys for that very long rant about why top gear's amazing.
00:40:04.322 --> 00:40:04.623
Um.
00:40:05.001 --> 00:40:05.581
No, it's good.
00:40:07.277 --> 00:40:11.688
We will move on to our shared topic this week.
00:40:11.867 --> 00:40:15.947
This week the shared topic is a movie called Bushwhacked.
00:40:16.458 --> 00:40:19.307
I know you guys have never heard of it before.
00:40:19.938 --> 00:40:24.768
Uh, this is a movie from my past.
00:40:24.797 --> 00:40:29.717
Uh, this movie is associated with my first like sleepover.
00:40:31.083 --> 00:40:33.753
Um, it wasn't really a sleepover.
00:40:33.753 --> 00:40:38.043
We were supposed to be sleeping and doing a scout camp in the backyard.
00:40:38.762 --> 00:40:40.623
Um, but we didn't do that.
00:40:40.623 --> 00:40:47.717
We went inside and it was my one and only, like, I wasn't allowed to have sleepovers as a kid.
00:40:49.157 --> 00:40:52.367
So this was my one and only like sleepover experience.
00:40:52.728 --> 00:41:01.427
I made the mistake of being the first one to fall asleep, so they put warm water on my crotch area to make me think I wet my pants.
00:41:01.577 --> 00:41:10.007
Um, jokes on them though, because I was wearing shorts underneath my, uh, pajama pants.
00:41:10.038 --> 00:41:13.128
So I just took'em off and I was like, Nope, still dry.
00:41:13.128 --> 00:41:13.547
I'm good.
00:41:14.507 --> 00:41:15.137
That was weird.
00:41:15.797 --> 00:41:16.818
And I went back to sleep.
00:41:17.572 --> 00:41:20.166
You guys were weird for that, wouldn't I?
00:41:21.842 --> 00:41:22.322
Yeah.
00:41:22.563 --> 00:41:31.143
Um, anyway, so while we were avoiding doing what we were supposed to be doing, we put on this movie that I?
00:41:31.143 --> 00:41:33.273
had never heard of before.
00:41:34.983 --> 00:41:39.427
And Lauren, I'm very curious as to what you thought of this experience.
00:41:41.016 --> 00:41:43.836
Uh, an experience is definitely a word.
00:41:45.527 --> 00:41:47.898
It was an experience you cannot deny.
00:41:47.898 --> 00:41:48.963
It was an experience
00:41:49.327 --> 00:41:52.117
definitely experience the whole time.
00:41:53.706 --> 00:41:57.157
it has, oh, the actor's name, I need to pull it back up.
00:41:57.637 --> 00:41:58.237
Um.
00:41:59.947 --> 00:42:02.646
He is the guy from, uh,
00:42:02.753 --> 00:42:02.822
alone.
00:42:03.186 --> 00:42:12.277
home Alone and I thought he was in 101 Dalmatians, but he's like the same character in
00:42:12.422 --> 00:42:12.693
Yeah.
00:42:13.237 --> 00:42:14.226
everything.
00:42:14.617 --> 00:42:25.597
And I was like trying to think of,'cause he's so good at making like crazy faces that he just looks absolutely insane.
00:42:27.217 --> 00:42:27.577
Um.
00:42:29.061 --> 00:42:55.791
The actor, Daniel Stern, he, so to explain this to everybody, Daniel Stern is this, delivery man who gets roped into, like, don't, I wasn't paying attention to what the, the, he was.
00:42:56.481 --> 00:42:57.322
think it was money.
00:42:57.322 --> 00:42:59.961
Like he was trying to move money for these people.
00:43:01.822 --> 00:43:05.331
but he was just dumb and he was just like, oh yeah, I'm a delivery guy.
00:43:05.632 --> 00:43:11.152
You're offering more money, so of course I'm gonna do this shady deal with you because it's money.
00:43:11.871 --> 00:43:18.172
And, uh, this guy ends up, um, faking his own death and blaming it on Max.
00:43:18.202 --> 00:43:20.902
So Max was on the run and.
00:43:23.061 --> 00:43:29.211
Just like if there is a worst way to handle any situation, that is what this guy does.
00:43:32.242 --> 00:43:38.961
So, uh, when I started watching this, Josh was like, oh, well hope you're, and you're really tired.
00:43:39.202 --> 00:43:43.371
And I was like, don't worry, I'm really tired and I'm on pain medication, so it'll be great.
00:43:44.827 --> 00:43:48.021
And like I did enjoy it while I was watching it.
00:43:48.291 --> 00:43:50.391
And the whole time I was just like.
00:43:51.202 --> 00:43:52.461
I'm really glad I'm on drugs.
00:43:55.911 --> 00:44:00.831
But um, so this guy is driving across the country.
00:44:00.831 --> 00:44:01.911
They know what he looks like.
00:44:01.911 --> 00:44:03.891
They know what he is driving'cause he stole the car.
00:44:03.891 --> 00:44:06.577
So there's like an out on him and he sees.
00:44:07.507 --> 00:44:09.427
This on the news in a gas station.
00:44:09.427 --> 00:44:13.387
So he steals this like, um, scout master's car.
00:44:14.317 --> 00:44:18.967
'cause the scout master is trying to tell him that he parked in a handicap space and that's no good.
00:44:19.177 --> 00:44:28.206
So he glues the scout master to the steering wheel and he's like, you just keep driving to Mexico where I'm gonna shoot you.
00:44:30.186 --> 00:44:36.036
And then he ends up getting roped in to taking care of this scout master.
00:44:37.206 --> 00:44:46.686
Like group of kids and they call him the spider and he just accidentally keeps like showing them how to survive in the wild.
00:44:46.896 --> 00:44:48.666
'cause this bear starts mulling him.
00:44:48.666 --> 00:44:51.757
But he like passes out and they're like, yeah, no, he's doing good.
00:44:51.757 --> 00:44:52.836
You're supposed to play.
00:44:55.356 --> 00:44:57.876
And I was like, for a kid movie.
00:44:57.876 --> 00:45:00.996
Like they're, it's kind of really throwing him around.
00:45:04.177 --> 00:45:04.597
Um.
00:45:05.751 --> 00:45:07.612
But yeah, it was just like shenanigans like that.
00:45:07.612 --> 00:45:11.032
And then halfway through the kids realize he's not who he says he was.
00:45:11.242 --> 00:45:12.831
So try to turn on him.
00:45:12.952 --> 00:45:17.092
And there's this FBI agent that teams up with the scoutmaster, try to find the boys.
00:45:17.362 --> 00:45:24.172
Everybody thinks everybody off of the mountain thinks that the boys are being held hostage by Max.
00:45:24.501 --> 00:45:29.902
Um, but the kids really just thought that he was the scoutmaster the most of the time.
00:45:30.351 --> 00:45:32.422
Um, but then when the.
00:45:33.157 --> 00:45:41.106
BI agent and the scoutmaster catch up, they find out that like the FBI agent wasn't an FBI agent and was actually working with the guy.
00:45:43.626 --> 00:45:45.996
Yeah, there's a lot going on in this movie now that I realize.
00:45:50.016 --> 00:45:51.487
So the FBI agent.
00:45:52.702 --> 00:45:53.961
Who isn't the FBI agent?
00:45:54.382 --> 00:45:59.152
Um, ties up the scout master and then is now trying to kill Max and the kids.
00:45:59.541 --> 00:46:11.931
And so Max and the kids throw their backpacks off a waterfall, so everybody thinks they're dead, but they still have to find, uh, the packages at the top of this mountain to Wale.
00:46:13.927 --> 00:46:16.746
Improve Max's innocence at the end.
00:46:17.077 --> 00:46:22.621
So now they're still trying to get to the top and then the mom just drives there in like five minutes to go get the kids.
00:46:24.067 --> 00:46:30.907
Well, this has been like a three day journey for the, to make it to the top.
00:46:32.106 --> 00:46:37.806
But then of course by then the kids and Max are like tight.
00:46:38.161 --> 00:46:45.661
And, um, the mom is kind of okay with him because he saves, uh, her kid from falling off of a cliff.
00:46:46.141 --> 00:46:48.181
And, uh, yeah.
00:46:48.271 --> 00:46:53.822
And then it ends with him getting like an honorary scout thing and getting mobbed by millions of children.
00:46:53.822 --> 00:46:58.621
And he is, he's now taking care of all of these kids in Yosemite.
00:46:58.621 --> 00:46:58.976
And I was like.
00:47:00.021 --> 00:47:00.411
No.
00:47:01.882 --> 00:47:04.371
Why did you, why would you do that?
00:47:04.641 --> 00:47:12.382
You don't give that many kids like a weirdo like Max because of all of these kids for like a week.
00:47:12.472 --> 00:47:12.922
No.
00:47:14.242 --> 00:47:16.942
So it was funny, there were shenanigans.
00:47:17.331 --> 00:47:23.871
Uh, I, there was this scene where he was teaching'em about the birds and the bees, and I was like.
00:47:24.711 --> 00:47:29.061
We didn't need that, that that scene could have just been cut out.
00:47:30.952 --> 00:47:42.771
but yeah, the rest of it was, um, you have shenanigans and crazy eyes and yeah, if you're really tired, this is a, a show to watch.
00:47:44.782 --> 00:47:46.161
It's an experience to have.
00:47:48.523 --> 00:47:50.983
It sure is an experience to have.
00:47:52.873 --> 00:47:54.617
What would you rate it on a scale of one to 10?
00:47:55.476 --> 00:47:57.007
On drugs.
00:47:57.036 --> 00:47:58.086
It was a six.
00:47:59.197 --> 00:48:00.007
Looking back,
00:48:00.077 --> 00:48:03.137
I thought you'd be a little bit better on drugs,
00:48:04.987 --> 00:48:08.976
well, it's only because it's, I probably would never watch this again.
00:48:09.306 --> 00:48:10.086
Um,
00:48:10.427 --> 00:48:11.688
but you said on drugs,
00:48:11.916 --> 00:48:12.757
on drugs.
00:48:12.817 --> 00:48:13.297
Yeah.
00:48:13.307 --> 00:48:15.047
but It sounds like you had a great time with it.
00:48:15.047 --> 00:48:15.708
On drugs.
00:48:15.797 --> 00:48:16.608
I'm confused.
00:48:17.958 --> 00:48:18.918
I get give it a.
00:48:18.918 --> 00:48:23.253
six off of drugs and in hindsight, but on drugs, it really seems like you enjoyed it.
00:48:25.056 --> 00:48:28.117
Okay, bump it up to a seven because
00:48:28.367 --> 00:48:28.907
Okay, cool.
00:48:28.956 --> 00:48:33.726
was freaking, I did laugh a lot about like his facial expressions and stuff.
00:48:35.407 --> 00:48:46.806
Um, off drugs, I'd probably say 4.5 because I'd rather watch, um, black Panther.
00:48:49.338 --> 00:48:51.108
Fair enough.
00:48:51.202 --> 00:48:53.362
medications and really tired, yeah, let's watch.
00:48:55.943 --> 00:48:56.233
Okay.
00:48:56.748 --> 00:48:57.858
That's totally fair.
00:48:58.487 --> 00:49:03.077
Uh, so I haven't seen this since I was a kid.
00:49:03.498 --> 00:49:07.608
I watched it that one time and yesterday.
00:49:10.128 --> 00:49:10.608
That's it.
00:49:10.668 --> 00:49:12.228
I watched it a total of two times.
00:49:12.228 --> 00:49:19.862
I, uh, I remember as an 11-year-old boy thinking like some of it was kind of funny and most of it kind of wasn't.
00:49:21.108 --> 00:49:30.557
And I still believe that today, um, I kind of agree with you and disagree with you about the birds in the bee scene.
00:49:31.338 --> 00:49:44.088
It is long for what it is, like it goes on for like two whole minutes and it should have been like a 15 second scene, but it made me laugh as much today as I did as a kid.
00:49:44.297 --> 00:49:48.288
When he went, oh, at the end I was like.
00:49:48.737 --> 00:49:48.947
Okay.
00:49:48.947 --> 00:49:50.358
That's, that's funny.
00:49:50.838 --> 00:49:54.827
Um, did it need to be as long as it was?
00:49:54.858 --> 00:49:56.538
No, definitely not.
00:49:56.777 --> 00:50:05.088
But the fact that the kids were kind of like figuring out that he wasn't a scout master, and they were like, it says in the manual, you have to teach us.
00:50:05.568 --> 00:50:06.947
And he was just like, okay.
00:50:07.248 --> 00:50:09.527
I, I was like, okay, this is funny.
00:50:09.768 --> 00:50:15.557
Um, this is little chuckles spread out.
00:50:15.873 --> 00:50:19.172
Through excruciatingly dull scenes.
00:50:19.592 --> 00:50:25.262
Um, and like there's some jokes that are just not that funny.
00:50:25.413 --> 00:50:40.563
Uh, like you've got the actual scoutmaster who's supposed to have like climbed Mount Everest and fought a tiger with his bare hands or something and has the nickname spider for whatever reason, right?
00:50:41.702 --> 00:50:43.862
And he shows up on screen and he's like the scrat.
00:50:46.128 --> 00:50:51.648
Lanky kind of guy and you're like, he's, he's the guy.
00:50:51.648 --> 00:50:54.588
I think he voices Yago and Aladdin.
00:50:55.307 --> 00:50:56.507
I think that's the same guy.
00:50:57.018 --> 00:51:00.137
If not, he's got a very similar like body typist, that guy.
00:51:00.137 --> 00:51:01.547
So you guys know what I'm talking about.
00:51:01.847 --> 00:51:03.827
You're like, that guy's not an adventurer.
00:51:04.577 --> 00:51:11.117
That guy has not climbed a 10 foot tall mountain, much less Mount Everest.
00:51:12.452 --> 00:51:12.672
Um.
00:51:15.572 --> 00:51:17.342
Okay, a 10 foot tall cliff.
00:51:17.402 --> 00:51:29.313
Um, like I don't buy the, he is what they're saying this guy is, and the fact that he just like accepts being glued to the steering wheel.
00:51:29.313 --> 00:51:31.052
I didn't find funding either.
00:51:31.532 --> 00:51:34.503
I'm like, I get the guy has a gun.
00:51:35.012 --> 00:51:40.532
But you're supposed to have fought a tiger with your bare hands or a bear or something.
00:51:41.072 --> 00:51:51.992
This guy is very clearly some unhinged crazy person and like you should be able to take him like fairly easily.
00:51:52.052 --> 00:51:57.813
I, I, like, I would chance my, I would take the chance of fighting this guy.
00:51:58.563 --> 00:52:02.972
You're supposed to be this like go all do all adventurer guy and.
00:52:03.737 --> 00:52:08.027
You just like, okay, I will let you glue me to the steering wheel.
00:52:08.387 --> 00:52:17.268
And then you get to the end of that experience and the cops pull over the actual scoutmaster and they rip him out of the car and they're like, ha ha so funny.
00:52:17.268 --> 00:52:22.648
And I'm like, no, that's not funny.
00:52:24.438 --> 00:52:24.737
Like,
00:52:24.847 --> 00:52:27.157
Yeah, the prolonged DL and zoom out.
00:52:27.157 --> 00:52:27.786
I was like.
00:52:27.947 --> 00:52:31.967
yeah, we can move on from That Like.
00:52:32.807 --> 00:52:33.498
Ha ha.
00:52:33.498 --> 00:52:38.867
He, he was super glued to a steering wheel and they ripped him off and that hurt him.
00:52:39.978 --> 00:52:41.867
Ha ha ha ha.
00:52:42.391 --> 00:52:42.552
happened.
00:52:43.458 --> 00:52:43.847
Yep.
00:52:45.527 --> 00:52:50.898
And those are the kinda scenes that are, that are in between the actual funny parts.
00:52:51.047 --> 00:52:58.427
Um, that being said, this is very much a hot rod, um, nacho Libre kind of humor.
00:52:59.447 --> 00:53:01.128
Um, and I do think it's.
00:53:01.682 --> 00:53:06.273
Better than those because I absolutely despise those.
00:53:06.302 --> 00:53:08.253
I think those movies are garbage.
00:53:08.492 --> 00:53:12.003
Those movies are nothing But the ripping off scene.
00:53:12.518 --> 00:53:12.737
Uh,
00:53:16.161 --> 00:53:17.121
But you have the babe.
00:53:22.188 --> 00:53:22.648
I'm aware.
00:53:23.121 --> 00:53:23.632
I love
00:53:23.898 --> 00:53:24.438
I'm aware.
00:53:25.456 --> 00:53:25.677
it.
00:53:25.702 --> 00:53:30.527
I'm, I'm, uh, I'm aware I, get that a lot of people like those movies.
00:53:30.557 --> 00:53:34.097
If you like those movies, uh, you'll probably like this one.
00:53:34.097 --> 00:53:35.208
Just not as much.
00:53:35.688 --> 00:53:38.148
Uh,'cause there's not as much of that kind of stuff in it.
00:53:38.297 --> 00:53:39.108
Um,
00:53:41.632 --> 00:53:45.891
I, I disagree'cause I like those movies, but I don't like this one.
00:53:45.891 --> 00:53:45.922
I
00:53:46.788 --> 00:53:47.717
you gave it a six,
00:53:48.862 --> 00:53:49.581
on drugs.
00:53:49.637 --> 00:53:50.657
uh, 4.5.
00:53:50.777 --> 00:53:50.838
Yeah.
00:53:52.402 --> 00:53:52.641
But the
00:53:52.668 --> 00:53:57.407
I would argue to get any enjoyment in those movies, you need to be on a lot of drugs.
00:53:57.918 --> 00:53:59.777
'cause those movies are terrible.
00:54:00.931 --> 00:54:02.617
I, I like Hot Rod.
00:54:02.677 --> 00:54:04.476
I love Nacho Libre.
00:54:05.646 --> 00:54:11.586
am, I will quote, um, not, not Nacho, um,
00:54:12.737 --> 00:54:13.248
Napoleon,
00:54:13.987 --> 00:54:16.476
but I don't like watching Napoleon.
00:54:16.536 --> 00:54:19.387
It gets Embarrassed way too much,
00:54:22.112 --> 00:54:22.293
Okay.
00:54:23.231 --> 00:54:23.452
but.
00:54:23.762 --> 00:54:25.833
I don't like those movies at all.
00:54:26.072 --> 00:54:31.617
They're all just like, those movies make me feel stupid.
00:54:34.192 --> 00:54:36.711
And this, this, does this one make you feel stupid?
00:54:36.722 --> 00:54:37.862
Not as stupid?
00:54:38.103 --> 00:54:41.943
'cause I do think some of the jokes are kind of clever, right?
00:54:41.943 --> 00:54:42.032
Like.
00:54:42.277 --> 00:54:42.356
Hmm
00:54:43.233 --> 00:54:51.782
When he gets the kids to pee off the cliff and the FBI agent is like warm rain.
00:54:52.322 --> 00:54:53.943
This feels nice.
00:54:54.032 --> 00:55:01.742
Like, yeah, that's disgusting and kind of funny, not laugh out loud, funny, but a little chuckle.
00:55:01.742 --> 00:55:01.833
Sure.
00:55:01.833 --> 00:55:01.893
Um,
00:55:03.306 --> 00:55:04.476
Uh, I,
00:55:04.938 --> 00:55:05.057
I
00:55:05.137 --> 00:55:07.356
hated that scene when he started licking his lips.
00:55:07.777 --> 00:55:07.806
I.
00:55:08.688 --> 00:55:11.297
Yeah, that took it a little far for sure.
00:55:12.047 --> 00:55:20.958
Um, but like, yeah, I'm gonna give it a 4.5 outta 10'cause I still don't like it.
00:55:21.588 --> 00:55:27.257
Um, as an 11-year-old boy, I probably would've given it a six.
00:55:27.648 --> 00:55:29.393
So I'm right there with you, Mike.
00:55:31.233 --> 00:55:34.143
If you're 11 and you have history with scouts, I.
00:55:34.143 --> 00:55:37.623
think that also changes my perspective on that a little bit.
00:55:37.623 --> 00:55:50.652
Having been a scout, um, like yeah, if there's some good stuff in it, is this going to be high on my rewatch list?
00:55:51.407 --> 00:55:53.327
No, absolutely not.
00:55:53.327 --> 00:56:02.927
It's going to be, not going to be, if I had to choose today, which would I rather watch Black Panther or This I would rather watch Black Panther to be fair.
00:56:02.927 --> 00:56:13.608
That is because I just watched this and I think I need a good 20 years again to, to get back to being able to enjoy some of this movie.
00:56:13.967 --> 00:56:14.358
Um.
00:56:14.407 --> 00:56:16.086
an every 20 year watch.
00:56:16.697 --> 00:56:20.807
Yeah, they, 15 to 20 years.
00:56:20.807 --> 00:56:22.998
You know, you might get a few chuckles out of this one.
00:56:24.467 --> 00:56:37.608
Um, yeah, it's, I would say it's underrated simply because I've never met somebody who's seen it, and I do think it's worth giving a shot.
00:56:37.878 --> 00:56:44.568
it's worth giving a shot, like you wouldn't say to somebody who hasn't seen it to try it out.
00:56:45.472 --> 00:56:46.101
It depends.
00:56:46.101 --> 00:56:49.461
There's some people that I'll just be like, yeah, not worth it.
00:56:49.492 --> 00:56:49.702
Some
00:56:49.983 --> 00:56:50.373
Yeah.
00:56:50.692 --> 00:56:50.931
maybe.
00:56:52.233 --> 00:56:52.563
Yeah.
00:56:53.132 --> 00:56:54.932
like, there's a part of me that's like maybe.
00:56:54.932 --> 00:56:56.313
Con would enjoy this.
00:56:57.543 --> 00:56:59.702
Maybe, I don't know.
00:56:59.882 --> 00:57:01.322
Hopefully we'll find out next week.
00:57:01.461 --> 00:57:01.911
well bet.
00:57:01.922 --> 00:57:02.643
Probably not.
00:57:02.811 --> 00:57:03.081
it
00:57:03.963 --> 00:57:04.952
I don't think he will.
00:57:05.097 --> 00:57:05.217
a
00:57:05.282 --> 00:57:06.873
I think he'll be right here with us.
00:57:06.873 --> 00:57:09.123
I think he'll be like, there's some funny stuff in it blah, blah.
00:57:09.782 --> 00:57:11.222
It's a lot of rough stuff too.
00:57:11.853 --> 00:57:12.123
Um.
00:57:12.621 --> 00:57:13.041
Yeah, yeah.
00:57:13.041 --> 00:57:16.911
I think you're right with like, I feel like there was some jokes.
00:57:16.911 --> 00:57:23.032
The ones that did land me, they then just extended it to the point that it didn't land with me anymore.
00:57:23.327 --> 00:57:23.688
Yeah.
00:57:24.257 --> 00:57:25.518
yeah, absolutely right.
00:57:25.518 --> 00:57:33.467
The, the, the ping on the cops funny and then not funny, the birds and the bees scene.
00:57:33.648 --> 00:57:35.628
Funny then, not funny.
00:57:35.927 --> 00:57:38.097
Um, so it's.
00:57:39.753 --> 00:57:41.943
Then some jokes just Don't land on it.
00:57:42.063 --> 00:57:52.503
So I don't know there if, like I said, if you are a fan of Nacho Libre, Napoleon Dynamite, hot Rod kind of movies, I do think this one's worth a shot.
00:57:54.452 --> 00:57:55.353
I would say try it.
00:57:56.222 --> 00:58:00.813
Um, if you're not, I would say I probably.
00:58:03.782 --> 00:58:04.112
I
00:58:04.327 --> 00:58:04.746
do it.
00:58:04.922 --> 00:58:06.663
really enjoy it very much, but it.
00:58:06.663 --> 00:58:08.762
wasn't like the worst movie I've ever seen.
00:58:09.711 --> 00:58:10.222
Yeah.
00:58:12.422 --> 00:58:12.813
so Yeah.
00:58:14.342 --> 00:58:15.302
Any last thoughts?
00:58:16.492 --> 00:58:17.902
Uh, nope.
00:58:18.351 --> 00:58:20.271
I think we covered it all.
00:58:21.333 --> 00:58:21.753
Okay.
00:58:22.563 --> 00:58:25.472
Thank you everybody for watching and or listening.

Let us know if there's anything you want us to watch.
00:58:29.432 --> 00:58:31.382
I love getting recommendations.
00:58:31.382 --> 00:58:33.902
It makes it really easy to choose topics that way.
00:58:34.413 --> 00:58:38.402
Um, like we just automatically do it.
00:58:38.402 --> 00:58:38.822
It's great.
00:58:38.913 --> 00:58:44.193

00:58:44.193 --> 00:58:44.222
I.
00:00:00.228 --> 00:00:00.768
Hey everybody.
00:00:00.768 --> 00:00:18.797
This is on screen, off screen show where we like to talk about our weekly media intake and how we, how, what, how our mood affects, how we watch it, and how it affects how we live.
00:00:19.367 --> 00:00:25.128
Um, this week we have Lauren, The best ever.
00:00:25.187 --> 00:00:28.307
and me, I'm also here.
00:00:28.862 --> 00:00:30.932
And I'm sick, so I apologize.
00:00:31.297 --> 00:00:31.417
The
00:00:31.533 --> 00:00:32.073
Uh
00:00:32.212 --> 00:00:33.131
not feeling the best.
00:00:35.253 --> 00:00:37.023
uh, no, not the best.
00:00:37.023 --> 00:00:37.563
ever.
00:00:37.832 --> 00:00:39.932
Got a lot of growth to happen over here.
00:00:40.232 --> 00:00:43.412
Um, Conlin is missing today.
00:00:43.563 --> 00:00:47.012
Um, he should be back next week, so sorry.
00:00:47.103 --> 00:00:50.523
I know he makes some good points occasionally, uh, but.
00:00:51.978 --> 00:00:53.478
Probably wouldn't have this week.
00:00:53.478 --> 00:01:05.418
So, and you'll hear about his thoughts next week Anyway, so with that being said, Lauren, we just started talking about your topic, so let's get started there.
00:01:05.447 --> 00:01:06.798
What did you think?
00:01:07.087 --> 00:01:09.996
Okay, so, uh, spoilers everybody.
00:01:09.996 --> 00:01:14.137
I watched Elio, uh, it's the new Pixar, Disney movie.
00:01:14.137 --> 00:01:16.956
Um, and I feel like.
00:01:17.706 --> 00:01:19.986
I've been disappointed in Disney a lot lately.
00:01:21.246 --> 00:01:24.516
Um, but I wasn't disappointed in this one.
00:01:24.996 --> 00:01:30.037
Um, animation's great, uh, story I thought was great.
00:01:30.367 --> 00:01:40.566
Um, feel like there wasn't like anything getting pushed down my throat and, uh, it was, um.
00:01:43.057 --> 00:01:44.167
I like wanna talk.
00:01:44.167 --> 00:01:50.826
I just told Josh, I was like, it made me cry, but like, I don't wanna like talk about that scene.
00:01:50.826 --> 00:01:53.647
'cause I'm like, that's a, that's a spoiler, but it's also so good.
00:01:54.486 --> 00:02:01.986
Um, so, uh, I guess when you watch this, is it on your list at all, Josh?
00:02:02.587 --> 00:02:09.923
Uh, no it's not so viewers, it's not on my list because apparently it's a credit scene and it's not actually in the movie.
00:02:10.312 --> 00:02:15.712
I am highly irritated with the lizard thing being all over my social media.
00:02:16.312 --> 00:02:17.633
I find it irritating.
00:02:18.048 --> 00:02:30.437
I'm not enthused by it at all, and I'm very sick of it, but I, to be fair, I don't know much about the movie, but I don't like that, so that's why it's not on my list.
00:02:30.467 --> 00:02:41.207
Um, for any listeners, this is a fairly new movie, so from this point out, spoiler warning, um, Lauren's going to talk very openly.
00:02:41.207 --> 00:02:42.802
You can just go ahead and skip to the next.
00:02:43.728 --> 00:02:46.907
Chapter and we will be talking about my topic.
00:02:46.997 --> 00:02:48.048
But go ahead, Lauren.
00:02:48.048 --> 00:02:49.337
Speak for you The.
00:02:50.407 --> 00:02:56.257
So Elio is about this kid, Elio, who his parents passed away and his.
00:02:56.917 --> 00:03:00.727
Aunt is taking care of him, and the aunt has like a full-time job.
00:03:00.967 --> 00:03:10.206
She works with the military, wanted to be, uh, an astronaut, but she puts the astronaut dreams on hold so she can raise Elio.
00:03:10.866 --> 00:03:16.567
And Elio is depressed and can't, like, doesn't feel like he fits in anywhere.
00:03:16.956 --> 00:03:23.616
And so he watches this thing at a museum about how we're trying to contact aliens with the, um.
00:03:24.711 --> 00:03:26.271
Not the Hubble telescope.
00:03:26.542 --> 00:03:27.891
That's not what that was.
00:03:29.722 --> 00:03:34.852
it's the satellite we sent with like samples of, uh, earth and like, things like that.
00:03:35.331 --> 00:03:39.141
And, um, so he's like, oh my gosh, aliens are coming here.
00:03:39.262 --> 00:03:43.012
So he goes out onto the beach and tries to get abducted by aliens.
00:03:43.012 --> 00:03:45.771
Like almost every night he like has flashing lights.
00:03:46.012 --> 00:03:48.711
He writes in the sand just with arrows pointing to him
00:03:49.323 --> 00:03:51.362
I see why you've connected to this character.
00:03:52.627 --> 00:03:56.917
Yeah, I often go out at night hoping the aliens will abduct me.
00:03:58.507 --> 00:04:07.296
Um, and uh, so he starts like acting up in school because his whole thing is just trying to get abducted by aliens.
00:04:07.657 --> 00:04:12.306
And then finally, like the aunt has enough and she tries to like send him off to this camp.
00:04:12.667 --> 00:04:14.016
Um, and.
00:04:14.662 --> 00:04:27.411
While he's there, he actually did make contact with aliens with his ham radioed at home, and the aliens come and they abduct him thinking he's like the leader of Earth and they don't know he's a kid.
00:04:27.411 --> 00:04:28.766
And so he's like trying to tell them.
00:04:29.541 --> 00:04:37.041
Uh, he's trying to keep up this facade of being earth's leader so that they will accept him into the council and he doesn't have to go back.
00:04:38.271 --> 00:04:43.372
and they send a clone of him back to Earth so that no one will know that he's missing.
00:04:43.791 --> 00:04:55.882
Uh, while they're like having these diplomatic missions, uh, and this other alien race that's very like hostile and warlike pops up and also wants to be a candidate for the council.
00:04:57.291 --> 00:05:05.002
immediately they're like, oh, well we think we'll just run away to a far end of the galaxy where you're not and not accept you coming into our council.
00:05:05.031 --> 00:05:06.531
'cause we don't want the war.
00:05:07.192 --> 00:05:14.122
And, uh, Elio's like, wait, they were gonna just drop him off at earth so they could run away.
00:05:14.122 --> 00:05:19.701
And he's like, what if I talk with the, the war alien and get him to leave you guys?
00:05:19.701 --> 00:05:21.141
Then could I stay on the council?
00:05:21.141 --> 00:05:21.591
And they're like.
00:05:22.281 --> 00:05:22.492
Yeah.
00:05:22.492 --> 00:05:23.002
Yeah, we could.
00:05:23.036 --> 00:05:25.851
If if you wanna do that, go ahead do that.
00:05:25.851 --> 00:05:38.961
So he goes over to talk to the war aliens, doesn't go well, gets thrown in jail, and the aliens are like, we're definitely gonna just kill this whole galactic um, council.
00:05:39.891 --> 00:05:42.291
they didn't accept us and you're gonna watch it.
00:05:42.591 --> 00:05:48.742
And so he starts trying to escape and ends up finding the war General's son.
00:05:49.161 --> 00:05:54.382
And he had like written some things down on how to get this war general to listen to him.
00:05:54.411 --> 00:06:00.891
'cause he like went onto the alien computer to like ask how to persuade this guy.
00:06:01.971 --> 00:06:04.072
And he is like bargaining chip.
00:06:04.747 --> 00:06:10.177
he is like, talks to the, the alien son and he is like, do you wanna be a bargaining chip?
00:06:11.197 --> 00:06:13.987
And it's like just a, a kid his age basically.
00:06:14.317 --> 00:06:15.276
And he's like, yeah.
00:06:15.547 --> 00:06:28.627
And so he ends up taking him back to the galactic, um, uh, ship and got the dad to like, um, down.
00:06:29.497 --> 00:06:32.346
like, okay, like if as long as you don't hurt my son, like.
00:06:32.601 --> 00:06:44.211
We leave and they come back and Elio's having fun with this other alien and the other alien's like, Hey, like he's like this worm, but everything else looks mechanic.
00:06:44.362 --> 00:06:46.521
And he is like, yeah, I'm not on my care pace yet.
00:06:46.911 --> 00:06:48.291
Uh, and I don't want to.
00:06:49.476 --> 00:06:53.197
then I'll have to like go to war and I don't wanna war, uh, things.
00:06:53.197 --> 00:06:54.937
He is like, I wanna play, I wanna have fun.
00:06:54.937 --> 00:06:56.437
I wanna be a kid still.
00:06:56.617 --> 00:07:00.156
And the dad's like, as he's coming over to the planet, he's like, I have his care pace.
00:07:00.216 --> 00:07:04.687
He got stolen because he was just, he, he was too vulnerable.
00:07:04.776 --> 00:07:06.906
So we have to make sure he gets put into this.
00:07:07.326 --> 00:07:13.266
So then Elio's like, we need to make a copy of you, put you into the care pace and it'll be good.
00:07:13.326 --> 00:07:15.232
Well, of course that doesn't go good.
00:07:16.026 --> 00:07:16.987
War happens.
00:07:17.047 --> 00:07:20.706
Elio gets kicked back to his planet with the sun.
00:07:21.516 --> 00:07:29.257
then, uh, anyway, they had to make the sun come back because he needed warm They need like a really hot climate.
00:07:29.737 --> 00:07:40.687
And, um, EEO the whole time thought that the aunt still hated him and loves the duplicate more than him.
00:07:41.047 --> 00:07:41.291
And then.
00:07:42.336 --> 00:07:51.247
You see from the aunt's perspective, she's like clocking all the things that are different with this clone, and she's trying to get Elio back the best way.
00:07:51.247 --> 00:07:52.237
She knows how.
00:07:52.567 --> 00:08:05.857
And then Elio finally sees that like he sees her, that he sees him and actually loves him, then she tries to help him get the alien back to the dad.
00:08:06.487 --> 00:08:10.536
And when they get there, the alien dad.
00:08:11.151 --> 00:08:16.252
Rips himself out of his care pace and like they're little worms.
00:08:16.552 --> 00:08:23.992
Uh, and so he like comes out of there and wraps up his son, like swaddles his son and like holds his son.
00:08:24.021 --> 00:08:25.461
'cause he thought his son was dead.
00:08:25.762 --> 00:08:29.422
Uh, but he was like warming him up when he swaddled him everything.
00:08:29.601 --> 00:08:35.361
And that was like making me cry because this dad, that was like, once you go into the care pace, you're not supposed to come out.
00:08:35.812 --> 00:08:36.442
Um.
00:08:37.236 --> 00:08:49.567
to have like the dad just like rip open his armor to get to his son, which is like an act that they said was, um, humiliating.
00:08:49.897 --> 00:08:53.976
Uh, you bring shame on everybody, like the dad didn't care.
00:08:53.976 --> 00:08:57.667
Like his love for his son was more, and that, that got me crying.
00:08:57.667 --> 00:08:59.317
I was like, that's fine.
00:08:59.407 --> 00:09:00.486
'cause at this point.
00:09:01.611 --> 00:09:09.022
Um, Ellio had lost his translator, so he didn't know what the aliens were saying, so it was like just showing this part.
00:09:09.022 --> 00:09:10.942
There was no English dialogue.
00:09:10.971 --> 00:09:13.282
It was just basically the actions.
00:09:13.461 --> 00:09:24.201
And I was like, that was such a powerful choice to make sure that there weren't words there and that it was the actions that showed this part.
00:09:24.201 --> 00:09:26.182
Anyway, so that made me baw my eyes out.
00:09:26.451 --> 00:09:28.131
Um, and then.
00:09:28.537 --> 00:09:30.336
Everybody went back to their families.
00:09:30.697 --> 00:09:40.057
Galactic war ended and he became an honorary guest of the council, even though they found out he was a kid, uh, they're like, we'll come back in a few years because you did end a war.
00:09:40.417 --> 00:09:42.517
Um, but like, go grow up first.
00:09:43.897 --> 00:09:49.267
So that was a very quickly told story of this movie.
00:09:49.386 --> 00:09:52.322
And I think it was like, mean, I would.
00:09:53.572 --> 00:09:58.042
Give it a seven, which is more than I've given most Disney lately.
00:09:59.511 --> 00:10:10.881
But that one scene I would say is a nine'cause it's like so impactful and I loved how all the choices they made in that scene.
00:10:11.152 --> 00:10:11.871
It was awesome.
00:10:13.322 --> 00:10:18.423
Well, it is very good to hear that Pixar has gone back to show.
00:10:18.423 --> 00:10:19.202
Don't tell.
00:10:19.712 --> 00:10:20.072
Um.
00:10:21.888 --> 00:10:29.477
If we look at like up, right, he showed, um, the love and the romance and the wedding and stuff they didn't tell you.
00:10:30.077 --> 00:10:32.748
Um, but they kind of lost their way for a little while.
00:10:33.677 --> 00:10:35.837
I haven't seen it very often since.
00:10:36.798 --> 00:10:38.508
But it's good to hear they're doing that again.
00:10:38.538 --> 00:10:44.087
'cause that is such a good wholesome way to tell that part of a story.
00:10:44.268 --> 00:10:47.087
Um, so that, that's really good for me to hear.
00:10:47.822 --> 00:10:51.722
Um, so you rated it a seven overall, but that one seems a nine.
00:10:52.162 --> 00:10:52.581
Yeah.
00:10:52.822 --> 00:10:53.152
Yeah.
00:10:53.152 --> 00:10:53.511
Seven
00:10:53.732 --> 00:10:53.793
Okay.
00:10:54.591 --> 00:10:56.667
uh, that one staying a nine because it was.
00:10:57.381 --> 00:11:05.091
Like I, I was enjoying watching the movie, but I was like, oh, this isn't really all that special, I don't think.
00:11:05.511 --> 00:11:14.062
But then that one scene, it was like, you are just so used to this one character acting out in violence.
00:11:14.481 --> 00:11:17.662
And then to have like no words or anything.
00:11:17.662 --> 00:11:20.721
It was just having him like rip it open and then like go to his son.
00:11:20.721 --> 00:11:21.562
I was like, oh my gosh.
00:11:23.182 --> 00:11:24.591
Just bawling my eyes out.
00:11:24.591 --> 00:11:25.371
It was fine.
00:11:26.633 --> 00:11:27.143
Oh good.
00:11:27.621 --> 00:11:28.042
But yeah,
00:11:28.102 --> 00:11:38.092
Um, so my understanding of you giving it a seven is, it's good, it's worth a watch, but it wouldn't make your top Pixar movies.
00:11:38.991 --> 00:11:41.091
no, I wouldn't like.
00:11:42.517 --> 00:11:50.616
I don't even know that I would watch have this on a yearly watch or anything, but like if somebody's like, oh, I haven't seen Elio, I'd be like, oh, let's put it on.
00:11:50.677 --> 00:11:51.096
That's good.
00:11:51.157 --> 00:11:52.236
You should see this one scene.
00:11:54.126 --> 00:11:55.567
The rest of it's pretty good too, but
00:11:56.028 --> 00:11:58.607
Do you have any Pixar on a yearly watch?
00:12:01.716 --> 00:12:08.317
I'm trying to think, I should know this off the top of my head.
00:12:09.501 --> 00:12:11.032
The Pixar movies.
00:12:12.123 --> 00:12:13.202
Monsters Inc.
00:12:14.102 --> 00:12:21.123
Oui inside out up Finding Nemo The Incredibles
00:12:21.981 --> 00:12:23.812
I would say Incredibles.
00:12:24.118 --> 00:12:24.437
Story
00:12:26.032 --> 00:12:27.412
Toy Story is an honor.
00:12:27.471 --> 00:12:33.471
That's like whenever I think Pixar, I think Toy Story and so I'm always like, I don't watch much Pixar.
00:12:35.477 --> 00:12:36.028
Bug's Life.
00:12:37.533 --> 00:12:38.163
Brave,
00:12:38.751 --> 00:12:43.761
I like Bugs Life, but I have not seen it in years.
00:12:44.091 --> 00:12:47.812
Um, I like Brave.
00:12:47.841 --> 00:12:53.662
It's not a yearly watch for me, but I really like it and I really like the music Brave.
00:12:55.113 --> 00:12:55.712
but Wally.
00:12:55.802 --> 00:12:56.432
So, yeah.
00:12:56.432 --> 00:12:58.413
You said Wally is a yearly watch for you,
00:12:58.611 --> 00:12:59.152
yeah.
00:12:59.852 --> 00:13:00.332
but not oui.
00:13:01.226 --> 00:13:02.481
Oh, ouie is too.
00:13:02.481 --> 00:13:02.631
I
00:13:02.748 --> 00:13:03.038
Okay.
00:13:03.142 --> 00:13:03.501
one.
00:13:03.892 --> 00:13:04.402
Yeah.
00:13:04.522 --> 00:13:04.971
I love Ouie.
00:13:05.013 --> 00:13:06.993
It's just like that's a big shot at Conlin.
00:13:07.023 --> 00:13:11.493
'cause he hates Wally and he loves Ratitude, but uh, okay.
00:13:12.393 --> 00:13:14.222
Monster Zinc inside out.
00:13:15.022 --> 00:13:17.241
Ooh, I Monsters, Inc.
00:13:17.451 --> 00:13:21.562
Is probably like, not yearly, but close.
00:13:22.202 --> 00:13:22.232
Okay.
00:13:22.251 --> 00:13:23.361
like Monsters Inc.
00:13:23.697 --> 00:13:31.761
I, cocoa is one that I'll watch, but it's not a yearly one.
00:13:32.616 --> 00:13:36.937
But I think it might start being on my, like Halloween watch.
00:13:43.417 --> 00:13:44.586
It was good music too.
00:13:45.817 --> 00:13:46.716
Um,
00:13:48.258 --> 00:13:51.648
Cocoa is only good for the last five minutes.
00:13:51.648 --> 00:13:55.217
Other than that, it's the longest movie I've ever watched in my entire life.
00:13:56.072 --> 00:13:56.611
It is, yeah.
00:13:56.841 --> 00:13:58.716
Cocoa's not a sit down watch.
00:13:58.716 --> 00:14:01.052
For me, it's a, I'll play it in the background.
00:14:03.471 --> 00:14:04.221
Um,
00:14:05.913 --> 00:14:08.942
Uh, for me, Wally, uh, not Wally.
00:14:08.942 --> 00:14:11.523
Wally's like a, every few years Monsters Inc.
00:14:11.523 --> 00:14:14.523
Is a little bit more popular for or higher on my list.
00:14:15.062 --> 00:14:21.273
Ouie Cars and The Incredibles and the First Inside Out movie is great.
00:14:23.043 --> 00:14:25.533
Um, toy Story I think is super overrated.
00:14:25.682 --> 00:14:28.352
I like finding an email, but I haven't watched it in a really long time.
00:14:29.102 --> 00:14:30.033
I should probably watch it.
00:14:30.633 --> 00:14:31.533
I love brave.
00:14:31.533 --> 00:14:33.153
I think brave is super underrated.
00:14:35.017 --> 00:14:35.527
Yeah.
00:14:35.736 --> 00:14:44.106
I love quoting the, when the dad is pretending to be her and he's like, I wanna be single for the rest of my life and run with my,
00:14:47.102 --> 00:14:48.788
Yeah, super great stuff.
00:14:50.493 --> 00:14:50.643
Oh,
00:14:52.897 --> 00:14:53.346
yeah.
00:14:53.841 --> 00:14:54.131
Okay.
00:14:55.687 --> 00:15:03.817
Yeah, I think, um, with E Elio I would probably put it on the bottom of my favorites of Pixar,
00:15:04.923 --> 00:15:06.812
Bottom of favorites.
00:15:06.812 --> 00:15:07.472
Yes, it does.
00:15:07.626 --> 00:15:08.287
of favorites.
00:15:08.346 --> 00:15:08.437
Yeah.
00:15:08.613 --> 00:15:09.572
Bottom of favorites.
00:15:09.602 --> 00:15:09.812
Okay.
00:15:11.852 --> 00:15:12.873
Good stuff.
00:15:12.903 --> 00:15:15.003
All right, we're gonna go on to my topic.
00:15:15.123 --> 00:15:15.633
Um.
00:15:17.102 --> 00:15:23.763
As you know, I had a little over two hours of new topics to talk about last week.
00:15:25.352 --> 00:15:33.423
I was not really in the mood to continue on watching with a bunch of new stuff, um, after that experience.
00:15:33.423 --> 00:15:38.342
So I went to stuff I've seen before.
00:15:40.923 --> 00:15:41.342
Sorry.
00:15:41.403 --> 00:15:41.822
Um.
00:15:44.388 --> 00:15:49.128
Every year I usually watch the specials on top from top gear.
00:15:49.187 --> 00:15:54.168
They're called the Christmas specials because the first one happened to come around Christmas time.
00:15:54.677 --> 00:15:56.327
The rest of'em really haven't.
00:15:56.538 --> 00:15:59.567
Um, so they're called Christmas specials.
00:15:59.898 --> 00:16:00.888
They're not really.
00:16:01.368 --> 00:16:10.773
Um, so for those of you who don't know in top gear every few years, uh, the three of them, Jeremy Clarkson.
00:16:11.628 --> 00:16:18.528
Richard Hammond and James May do some travel thing, right?
00:16:18.528 --> 00:16:20.658
So the first one is in America.
00:16:21.138 --> 00:16:34.668
Uh, they do a challenge to see if it was cheaper and better to buy and then sell your car, um, instead of renting a car for your vacation.
00:16:34.998 --> 00:16:36.798
So they go and.
00:16:37.548 --> 00:16:46.368
Uh, they get a Camaro and a Cadillac that are all really old and in terrible condition and a Dodge Ram.
00:16:46.427 --> 00:16:48.857
They're all just like the Dodge Ram is dented up, right?
00:16:48.857 --> 00:16:50.748
They had a budget of a thousand dollars.
00:16:50.957 --> 00:16:53.207
So they bought these like crappy, crappy cars.
00:16:53.538 --> 00:16:59.028
They drove to, uh, across to another state.
00:16:59.148 --> 00:17:00.857
Uh, they ended in Louisiana.
00:17:00.857 --> 00:17:02.238
I'm not sure where they started.
00:17:03.677 --> 00:17:04.038
Um.
00:17:04.518 --> 00:17:07.097
And then they just do these challenges along the way.
00:17:07.097 --> 00:17:08.387
They race each other.
00:17:08.508 --> 00:17:16.367
Um, in America, they try and get the other shot by,'cause they're in the deep south, so they painted each other's cars.
00:17:16.367 --> 00:17:21.048
So the one says Hillary for president, the other one says, NASCAR sucks.
00:17:21.077 --> 00:17:25.637
And you know, uh, the other one is like gay love, um, stuff.
00:17:25.637 --> 00:17:28.157
This is from 2007, remember?
00:17:28.428 --> 00:17:34.008
Um, and so they, they were going and they were having a good laugh at about it until like.
00:17:35.042 --> 00:17:39.063
They actually stop at a gas station and piss off some people by their phrases.
00:17:39.063 --> 00:17:42.363
And then they're like, oh, well this is a little bit more serious than we were thinking.
00:17:42.363 --> 00:17:46.173
So they like clean it off and they rush out of there and whatever.
00:17:47.012 --> 00:17:48.992
Um, the next one they go to Botsa.
00:17:49.488 --> 00:17:55.157
The next one they go to Vietnam, Bolivia, middle East, India, Africa, Burma.
00:17:55.188 --> 00:17:57.167
And the last one for top gears.
00:17:57.198 --> 00:17:58.188
Patagonia.
00:17:58.637 --> 00:18:00.917
I've started watching the grand tour ones.
00:18:00.917 --> 00:18:02.867
I watched the beach buggy ones again.
00:18:02.867 --> 00:18:05.147
I watched their feed the world.
00:18:05.718 --> 00:18:07.607
Um, Mozambique one.
00:18:07.607 --> 00:18:11.778
I watched the Columbia Special Survival of the fittest and International Buffoons.
00:18:11.778 --> 00:18:14.178
Vacation is where I just finished.
00:18:14.748 --> 00:18:16.758
Um, so I travel all over the world.
00:18:17.208 --> 00:18:25.367
Doing these ridiculous fun road trips where they take cars where they're not quite supposed to go, uh, in Patagonia, right?
00:18:25.367 --> 00:18:31.397
They're driving across the Alps in V eight cars.
00:18:31.607 --> 00:18:44.163
The one is in a Italian sports car, one is in a V eight Mustang, the other one's in a Porsche, and they're like rock crawling these cars, um.
00:18:46.038 --> 00:18:48.738
I absolutely love these specials.
00:18:48.768 --> 00:18:51.048
I find it absolutely wholesome.
00:18:51.288 --> 00:18:52.788
I find it inspiring.
00:18:52.788 --> 00:19:13.307
There's a number of road trips that like if this podcast were to take off and I could afford to do it, I would take like you and Conlan on a road trip where we would build crazy cars and pull pranks on each other and do fun little challenges and stuff.
00:19:15.063 --> 00:19:35.702
I've always thought that that would be like a top way to spend my life and like they got to do it and I get to watch them do it, and they have a really great friendship and an utter respect for each other, and they make fun of each other, and it's funny and it's good clean, wholesome entertainment.
00:19:36.782 --> 00:19:38.823
It's on my yearly watch.
00:19:40.067 --> 00:19:45.708
We're gonna do top 10 here in a few weeks when we get to our one year mark.
00:19:46.067 --> 00:19:57.228
And I think I'm a little higher on, on these than I was last year because I like, I've seen these thousands of times.
00:19:57.528 --> 00:20:04.097
I know exactly what is going to happen to all of these things, and yet I still love it every single time.
00:20:04.097 --> 00:20:06.018
Like I said, I watch these every year.
00:20:06.708 --> 00:20:08.087
I'm watching them currently.
00:20:08.298 --> 00:20:13.548
I will continue to watch them, uh, until I finish rewatching them this year.
00:20:14.057 --> 00:20:18.708
Um, the only negative I have is they're done.
00:20:18.798 --> 00:20:19.817
They're not doing anymore.
00:20:20.028 --> 00:20:20.688
It's gone.
00:20:21.198 --> 00:20:24.948
No more specials, no more top square gear, no more grand tour.
00:20:25.548 --> 00:20:28.907
It's donezo and I'm like, that is so sad.
00:20:29.478 --> 00:20:35.238
And there's one that they started filming that I'm never gonna get to see because of COVID.
00:20:36.291 --> 00:20:37.071
Oh, gross.
00:20:37.788 --> 00:20:39.917
They went to Russia, they had their cars.
00:20:39.948 --> 00:20:42.077
They were spotted there doing some filming.
00:20:42.077 --> 00:20:43.907
They were, weren't able to finish it.
00:20:45.261 --> 00:20:45.471
Ugh.
00:20:46.067 --> 00:20:49.038
And so there's one more lost footage out there.
00:20:49.157 --> 00:20:50.178
I'm not gonna get to see.
00:20:50.208 --> 00:20:50.688
It's just sad.
00:20:51.951 --> 00:20:58.342
The Patagonia one, is that the one where they're like, wake up on a ski hill or what?
00:20:58.342 --> 00:21:00.741
Which ones where they wake up on a ski hill?
00:21:01.698 --> 00:21:04.548
Uh, that one is a scandy flick.
00:21:04.577 --> 00:21:05.928
It's from the Grand Tour.
00:21:06.107 --> 00:21:07.428
It's not from Top gear.
00:21:07.926 --> 00:21:08.467
Oh, okay.
00:21:08.627 --> 00:21:10.728
that's where they do The ski hill thing.
00:21:10.847 --> 00:21:19.968
That's where, uh, Jeremy picks an Audi, which is like, I always think that they never pick Audis because it would make their challenges too easy.
00:21:20.657 --> 00:21:20.837
Um.
00:21:22.323 --> 00:21:23.462
Not biased at all.
00:21:23.553 --> 00:21:27.242
Uh, as an Audi lover, it's not biases.
00:21:27.603 --> 00:21:30.182
They, they just know that Audis are too good.
00:21:30.363 --> 00:21:46.323
Uh, um, all jokes aside, yeah, no, Patagonia is, they start in Argentina and their goal is to get to what I think is the most beautiful place in the entire world.
00:21:47.238 --> 00:21:49.367
And I would love to go there.
00:21:49.518 --> 00:21:54.407
Um, they're trying to get to, I can't remember what it's called.
00:21:55.188 --> 00:21:56.837
I'm sick, please.
00:21:57.967 --> 00:21:59.257
The brain fog is real.
00:22:00.137 --> 00:22:00.617
Yeah.
00:22:02.178 --> 00:22:03.228
Tier Del Fuego.
00:22:03.228 --> 00:22:06.678
They're trying to get to Sierra del Fuego, which is the southern tip.
00:22:06.678 --> 00:22:09.498
It's the southernmost city in the world.
00:22:10.038 --> 00:22:13.698
Um, it is the last checkpoint till you get to Antarctica.
00:22:14.387 --> 00:22:16.157
Um, they.
00:22:16.637 --> 00:22:27.498
Are unable to get there this time because there's some, uh, bad blood between Argentina and uh, Britain.
00:22:28.307 --> 00:22:33.798
Um, so they get kicked out before they're actually able to finish that one.
00:22:34.428 --> 00:22:41.958
Um, but no, they, like, they talk about history in these specials, which is something I love.
00:22:42.647 --> 00:22:44.627
Um, it is.
00:22:45.153 --> 00:22:46.833
Great friendship between them.
00:22:47.192 --> 00:22:51.843
I highly, highly recommend, like I get, not watching all of top gear.
00:22:52.292 --> 00:23:04.323
Um, if you're not a car fan, going back and watching them review a car from 2007 that nobody's gonna buy in 2025 because it's 23 years old at this point.
00:23:04.833 --> 00:23:08.252
Um, not really, but 20 years old.
00:23:09.423 --> 00:23:09.903
I get it.
00:23:11.252 --> 00:23:18.032
That's not gonna be that entertaining for you to see how they review a Kia Sorento from 2006 or whatever they're gonna do.
00:23:18.093 --> 00:23:23.282
Like I get, but like yearly watching the specials.
00:23:24.992 --> 00:23:26.613
It's a great way to spend your time.
00:23:27.573 --> 00:23:29.823
It, I, like I said, I, I find it inspiring.
00:23:29.853 --> 00:23:33.663
I have a ton of road trip ideas I would absolutely love to do.
00:23:35.163 --> 00:23:39.123
Um, there's an all off-road track that goes from.
00:23:39.438 --> 00:23:45.978
North Carolina, I think on the East coast all the way to the west coast.
00:23:46.038 --> 00:23:47.147
It's all off-road.
00:23:47.147 --> 00:23:50.897
You don't need a license to drive on it because it's all off-road track.
00:23:51.827 --> 00:24:00.617
And I saw somebody do it on a dirt bike and like, I think it would be very cool to do it like they did the beach buggies.
00:24:00.617 --> 00:24:04.817
You take some ridiculous car and you and a couple of friends.
00:24:06.917 --> 00:24:13.188
Go see how well you handle this experience.
00:24:13.248 --> 00:24:16.458
Um, you see so much of the world that way.
00:24:16.698 --> 00:24:18.647
You go to a lot of unexpected places.
00:24:19.488 --> 00:24:22.518
I would absolutely love to do stuff like that.
00:24:23.448 --> 00:24:23.688
Um.
00:24:25.791 --> 00:24:26.842
Yeah, I've.
00:24:27.182 --> 00:24:27.393
Yeah.
00:24:27.531 --> 00:24:32.811
Seen some top gear and I'm always so jealous of all the places they get to go.
00:24:33.291 --> 00:24:42.692
And uh, yeah, there's, I have a couple road, um, road trips planned out and it was funny'cause I was talking to my.
00:24:43.446 --> 00:24:46.866
Coworkers this week and I was like, Hmm, maybe I'll go to Washington.
00:24:47.436 --> 00:24:48.727
And they're like, state?
00:24:48.817 --> 00:24:53.616
And I'm like, yeah, I really wanna go to Olympia National Park.
00:24:53.977 --> 00:24:54.277
And I was
00:24:54.288 --> 00:24:54.468
Yeah.
00:24:54.757 --> 00:24:56.856
and if I drive there, I can take my dog.
00:24:58.282 --> 00:24:58.573
Yeah.
00:24:59.676 --> 00:25:07.267
So it's like a lot of places that I'm just trying to make sure that my car is ready to go for long trips all the time now.
00:25:07.717 --> 00:25:10.807
Uh, so I can just get up and go.
00:25:10.807 --> 00:25:10.866
Um.
00:25:13.537 --> 00:25:23.527
But yeah, I their trips so much because that is something that like, I wanna travel, I wanna do road trips.
00:25:23.977 --> 00:25:27.426
Um, probably not through the Panhandle of Texas.
00:25:27.426 --> 00:25:28.386
Done that one.
00:25:28.446 --> 00:25:29.317
Don't need to do it again.
00:25:32.886 --> 00:25:41.946
But yeah, there's, I, I've seen, I think I've seen more of Grand Tour than I've seen of just top gear.
00:25:43.041 --> 00:25:43.836
So I need to get more.
00:25:44.678 --> 00:25:46.597
Like I said, I recommend watching the specials.
00:25:46.627 --> 00:25:49.028
There's a lot of stuff that is worth watching.
00:25:49.087 --> 00:25:51.637
Even if you go to like the non-specialist episode, um.
00:25:52.923 --> 00:25:58.323
Like, there's one where they do a challenge, where it's like unrealistic.
00:25:58.353 --> 00:26:10.472
Nobody in real life is gonna live their life this way, but they try and find the most, um, inconspicuous supercar.
00:26:11.252 --> 00:26:18.393
So like their goal is to travel through a poor part of the world and not get their car photographed or whatever.
00:26:19.413 --> 00:26:30.182
So like they choose an Audi RRA and a old Ferrari and a Porsche or whatever, and they're just do these challenges and stuff like Top Gear, grand Tour.
00:26:30.512 --> 00:26:31.742
Great way to spend your time.
00:26:32.432 --> 00:26:41.913
Um, with the Grand Tour, I would stipulate don't watch the, um, celebrity portions'cause that sucks.
00:26:42.752 --> 00:26:44.373
Um, it's not funny at all.
00:26:44.853 --> 00:26:47.137
And like in top gear, they used to have the stake.
00:26:48.258 --> 00:26:54.738
Um, where he would go and put lap times in the cars and it was very entertaining and they would say something ridiculous.
00:26:54.738 --> 00:27:02.538
Like some say he doesn't eat bread, but he was born from a fish and whatever.
00:27:02.837 --> 00:27:04.157
It's the Stig, right?
00:27:04.157 --> 00:27:06.048
They always introduce him in funny places.
00:27:06.167 --> 00:27:07.428
He goes, he sets a lap time.
00:27:07.428 --> 00:27:09.708
You get to see how fast the car does it woohoo, whatever.
00:27:10.788 --> 00:27:15.982
In the grand tour, it's the American and it's like he's an idiot and he's fat.
00:27:16.863 --> 00:27:17.702
That's funny.
00:27:18.063 --> 00:27:19.532
It's like, no, it's not.
00:27:20.042 --> 00:27:28.022
And then like in top gear, uh, they have celebrities come on and they all drive around the track to see how fast they can do it compared to other celebrities.
00:27:28.593 --> 00:27:31.232
Um, and it's entertaining and they talk about stuff.
00:27:31.292 --> 00:27:44.823
And in the grand tour, they can't do it for copyright reasons, so they kill the celebrities and it's like, oh no, Ryan Gosling fell from the sky and splattered on the ground.
00:27:45.182 --> 00:27:45.932
How tragic and.
00:27:47.042 --> 00:27:50.042
It's all staged and not very funny and whatever.
00:27:50.163 --> 00:27:54.752
I would skip those portions of the show and do when I go back and watch them.
00:27:55.292 --> 00:27:59.252
Um, but like I would watch all of TopCare.
00:28:00.242 --> 00:28:01.772
I love cars, even the old ones.
00:28:01.772 --> 00:28:04.202
I'm like, yeah, that car's in my budget now.
00:28:04.442 --> 00:28:06.633
I can afford that Maserati today.
00:28:06.782 --> 00:28:09.212
I won't'cause it's crap, but I can.
00:28:09.603 --> 00:28:12.333
Um, uh, so
00:28:13.071 --> 00:28:13.491
Uh,
00:28:13.563 --> 00:28:13.803
great.
00:28:13.803 --> 00:28:16.113
Yeah, you should watch at least the specials.
00:28:17.362 --> 00:28:21.892
yeah, I was gonna ask what's your, like, do you have a favorite episode or,
00:28:23.768 --> 00:28:32.492
Oh, it's so hard to pick, so I'm gonna go, okay.
00:28:32.571 --> 00:28:32.872
some.
00:28:34.772 --> 00:28:40.623
so International buffoons vacation, they take RVs and they're in Nevada.
00:28:41.718 --> 00:28:43.428
And they trick out these RVs.
00:28:43.637 --> 00:28:55.518
So James May turns his RV into a pub and uh, Richard Hammond buys a truck with just a tent on top of it.
00:28:55.938 --> 00:29:06.528
And, uh, Jeremy Clarkson turns his into a bathroom, but also makes the roof a boat so he can drive from the roof.
00:29:06.768 --> 00:29:08.028
'cause he is big into boating.
00:29:08.028 --> 00:29:09.317
He's a boating fanatic.
00:29:09.708 --> 00:29:10.127
So.
00:29:10.982 --> 00:29:13.442
He drives his RV from the roof.
00:29:13.442 --> 00:29:16.232
And I'm like, that's so clever.
00:29:16.353 --> 00:29:17.732
It's so funny.
00:29:18.032 --> 00:29:21.992
Um, it's like people should make RVs that way.
00:29:21.992 --> 00:29:24.153
That is very interesting.
00:29:24.452 --> 00:29:31.113
Like thing that they did, um, they go out and do stuff like.
00:29:32.403 --> 00:29:35.702
The trio of them are just so great together.
00:29:35.702 --> 00:29:36.603
They're so funny.
00:29:36.603 --> 00:29:38.282
The way they riff off of each other.
00:29:38.553 --> 00:29:40.383
They always pull pranks on each other.
00:29:40.772 --> 00:29:48.692
Um, X, Y, z whatever, um, survival of the fattest is in Mongolia.
00:29:49.232 --> 00:29:57.272
They literally get dropped in the middle of Mongolia and then their airdropped parts to a car.
00:29:57.813 --> 00:30:04.053
So they build a car in the middle of Mongolia and their challenge is to escape.
00:30:04.202 --> 00:30:13.083
And like the map that they're given is like this hand drawn and it's like wobbly bridge and you get to the bridge and it's like fallen over.
00:30:13.413 --> 00:30:15.633
And so that's why it's wobbly.
00:30:15.962 --> 00:30:24.573
And then they're called, they get to like the bumpy bit and it's like this, um, think Lord of the Rings, this like swamp that Gollum is leading.
00:30:24.573 --> 00:30:25.833
Frodo and Sam through.
00:30:26.133 --> 00:30:26.192
It
00:30:26.271 --> 00:30:26.571
gosh.
00:30:26.792 --> 00:30:31.113
is like this rough, terrible thing.
00:30:31.143 --> 00:30:44.282
Um, Columbia, they get car four wheel drive cars and they are trying to photograph specific, um, animals for Amazon's screensavers.
00:30:44.643 --> 00:30:53.022
Um, so like they go and they find a hippo and a condor and a tiger or a Jaguar, and, uh.
00:30:53.897 --> 00:30:55.038
A bear, right?
00:30:55.038 --> 00:31:00.167
So they're just driving around the wilderness doing these things, feed the world.
00:31:00.228 --> 00:31:02.087
They're trying to solve world hunger.
00:31:02.417 --> 00:31:10.968
So, uh, Jeremy Clarkson gets a Nissan truck and he puts a ice maker in the back with a generator.
00:31:11.538 --> 00:31:18.198
And his idea, the goal is to take fish into one of the poorest par parts of Mozambique.
00:31:18.708 --> 00:31:22.307
Um, but like the, the, it's not that far.
00:31:22.623 --> 00:31:32.462
It's like a few hundred miles, but like right on the coastline they have fitty and here in this small town they don't.
00:31:32.823 --> 00:31:42.242
Um, Richard hangs them off the back of his bike and his idea is to like drive them as he drives along on this motorcycle.
00:31:42.573 --> 00:31:49.472
And James May puts an aquarium in the back of his Mercedes car and fills it with water and fish.
00:31:51.002 --> 00:31:53.192
And like he doesn't put a roof on it.
00:31:53.192 --> 00:31:53.613
Yeah.
00:31:53.732 --> 00:31:57.363
So it keeps like dumping on him and stuff like that.
00:31:57.423 --> 00:32:05.853
Um, beach buggies, they go into Africa again and they build beach buggies and they huff to cross the Namibian Desert.
00:32:06.393 --> 00:32:12.002
Um, Patagonia we talked about, they get V eight cars and they drive.
00:32:12.032 --> 00:32:16.593
They're trying to, drive them to Tierra del Waco, the southern tip.
00:32:16.712 --> 00:32:18.182
And, um.
00:32:18.857 --> 00:32:24.587
Play car football with, uh, a Patagonian team and they don't quite make it.
00:32:24.917 --> 00:32:33.617
but they, they're, uh, Jeremy is a big fan of Butch Cassidy.
00:32:34.127 --> 00:32:41.448
So they go to Butch Cassidy's home and he starts reenacting scenes from the movie and stuff.
00:32:41.718 --> 00:32:42.137
Uh.
00:32:45.317 --> 00:32:56.028
Burma, I think is when they buy trucks like semi-truck and they have to drive to the River Kwai and build a bridge across it.
00:32:56.028 --> 00:33:01.907
So they're referencing the movie all the time and they go and they build a bridge and drive their trucks across it.
00:33:02.478 --> 00:33:10.313
Um, Africa, I don't remember which one this one is.
00:33:11.462 --> 00:33:12.542
I just watched it.
00:33:14.913 --> 00:33:15.363
Oh.
00:33:16.053 --> 00:33:26.343
They take A-B-M-W-A Subaru, uh, WRX and a Volvo, and they're trying to find the source of the River Nile.
00:33:26.673 --> 00:33:32.103
And so they're being, um, a adventurers and stuff.
00:33:32.252 --> 00:33:40.262
Um, India, uh, they are driving across India for some reason.
00:33:41.343 --> 00:33:43.803
I don't remember what the overall purpose is.
00:33:44.432 --> 00:33:46.262
Uh Oh They're trying to build relations.
00:33:46.262 --> 00:33:56.522
They're trying to be ambassadors for Britain and India, just so they're, they take British cars to try and show them how good India, show India how good British cars are.
00:33:58.323 --> 00:34:07.532
Uh, middle East, they literally drive through Iraq, Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Israel and Palestine during the Iraq war in.
00:34:08.463 --> 00:34:18.123
Little sports cars, Mazda Miata, Mazda MX five, uh, Fiat, and uh, BMWZ three.
00:34:18.123 --> 00:34:21.123
So like these convertible tiny cars.
00:34:21.483 --> 00:34:30.273
Um, and they're trying to be three wise men and they're trying to bring gifts to the baby Jesus in Israel.
00:34:30.932 --> 00:34:31.413
Um,
00:34:32.831 --> 00:34:33.052
Oh
00:34:33.182 --> 00:34:34.233
it's so funny.
00:34:36.182 --> 00:34:37.202
Uh, Bolivia.
00:34:37.233 --> 00:34:41.523
Like I said, Bolivia is probably my personal favorite.
00:34:42.063 --> 00:34:59.643
Um, it's, they're dropped off in Bolivia on this river bank with their four by four cars that they bought side unseen, and they have to cross the desert to get to the Pacific Ocean or, or cross the jungle.
00:35:01.143 --> 00:35:02.342
So it starts.
00:35:03.032 --> 00:35:14.072
They have to like get their, like the first 20 minutes of the episode is just them trying to get their vehicles off the raft that their cars had been left on.
00:35:14.132 --> 00:35:16.023
'cause they were literally just like dumped there.
00:35:17.043 --> 00:35:18.182
Like they didn't have help.
00:35:18.333 --> 00:35:23.643
There was nobody helping them unload or even line up the, the raft to be straight.
00:35:23.643 --> 00:35:25.382
So they had to like get'em off.
00:35:25.472 --> 00:35:30.572
Uh, Richard's Land Cruiser wasn't running, so it had to get pole started.
00:35:31.592 --> 00:35:31.922
Um.
00:35:32.972 --> 00:35:49.503
James May picked a little Suzuki that was red, but he, when in the ad it said it was blue and its four wheel drive wasn't working and they were all making fun of, uh, Jeremy's car because it was a land cruiser.
00:35:50.672 --> 00:35:54.242
No, it was some very unreliable car.
00:35:54.902 --> 00:35:56.913
And they're like, yeah, that's never gonna make it.
00:35:56.972 --> 00:35:57.963
It's a piece of crap.
00:35:58.532 --> 00:36:01.083
And so they're, they're riffing on each other.
00:36:02.268 --> 00:36:11.358
Um, like I said, Vietnam, um, they go back to this one.
00:36:11.358 --> 00:36:14.208
They're riding motorcycles across Vietnam.
00:36:14.657 --> 00:36:22.458
They were given a budget of like a million dong, but it roughly translate to like a little over a thousand US dollars.
00:36:22.458 --> 00:36:27.228
So they like couldn't buy a car, so they decided to get motorcycles and.
00:36:28.112 --> 00:36:32.822
Jeremy Clarkson hates motorcycles, so he's whining the whole way and crashing.
00:36:32.822 --> 00:36:34.293
And Richard's having a great time.
00:36:34.293 --> 00:36:39.932
And James May picked the most pathetic little crappy bike that you could possibly think of.
00:36:41.012 --> 00:36:42.452
And they buy each other presents.
00:36:42.452 --> 00:36:47.612
And they all break each other's presents because they're on motorcycles and you can't carry them properly.
00:36:48.333 --> 00:36:54.273
Um, and the first real one, both Swana is, um.
00:36:55.833 --> 00:36:59.943
Where they drive across Africa and it makes this like really wholesome.
00:37:00.003 --> 00:37:04.322
Like I count the USA special, but it's not really the same as these other ones.
00:37:04.623 --> 00:37:20.373
If you start with Top Cures, Botswana Special and end with Grand Tours, Botswana special, it's like this whole like circle where they go back to their first one and they do it over again with modern vehicles and it's like, I'm excited to get there.
00:37:20.492 --> 00:37:22.952
I absolutely love these specials.
00:37:24.663 --> 00:37:29.818
They're good, clean, wholesome, entertaining, greatness, and I love them.
00:37:31.822 --> 00:37:35.782
Yeah, I see clips all the time and it always makes me laugh.
00:37:36.891 --> 00:37:38.992
Like the one where he's like, I'm a genius.
00:37:38.992 --> 00:37:45.202
Sometimes my genius scares me and he has like the uh, log tied behind and like right after he says that,
00:37:45.418 --> 00:37:46.197
Africa Special.
00:37:47.163 --> 00:37:47.463
Yep.
00:37:47.492 --> 00:37:48.333
Africa special.
00:37:49.233 --> 00:37:53.043
Sometimes my genius is So good you can hear it or whatever.
00:37:53.043 --> 00:37:53.342
Yeah.
00:37:53.722 --> 00:37:54.012
Yeah.
00:37:55.083 --> 00:37:57.182
So my genius is so good.
00:37:57.452 --> 00:38:06.693
It generates gravity and he said like the phrases they come up with, the pranks they pull on each other is so good.
00:38:06.932 --> 00:38:10.382
Um, yeah, you should watch them.
00:38:10.472 --> 00:38:11.643
Everybody should watch them.
00:38:11.702 --> 00:38:12.512
They're fantastic.
00:38:14.106 --> 00:38:15.396
Yeah, I have that.
00:38:15.396 --> 00:38:19.387
I was like,'cause I think I've seen most of Grand Tour.
00:38:19.777 --> 00:38:23.902
It's just the, um, top gear I need to start making a dent in.
00:38:25.253 --> 00:38:28.217
Well, like I said, at least just watch the specials.
00:38:28.307 --> 00:38:38.873
There's like a lot of good stuff there if you ever want, but I watch the specials every year And it's awesome and I love it every single time.
00:38:41.302 --> 00:38:45.891
And this is the year is do you usually watch at the same time of year or
00:38:46.248 --> 00:38:53.657
No, uh, most of the time it would probably fall around Christmas just because I don't actually like Christmas.
00:38:54.378 --> 00:39:07.068
Um, and in order to get away from Christmas music and Christmas movies and Christmas topics, um, I would, that's probably when it usually comes.
00:39:07.847 --> 00:39:17.268
Um, and I usually take a couple of weeks to do it, but like I said, last week I watched so much new stuff that I hadn't seen before.
00:39:17.268 --> 00:39:26.088
I was just like, I just, I wanna turn on something and not have to focus on it or analyze it and just enjoy.
00:39:27.467 --> 00:39:35.507
Um, I was very much in the mood for wholesome and good stuff, which is why I think to odd Thomas hit so well for me.
00:39:36.003 --> 00:39:37.652
And Notting Hill didn't.
00:39:38.342 --> 00:39:39.963
But it?
00:39:39.963 --> 00:39:46.563
led me to turn on the top gear specials and I will report on the rest of the grand tour specials next week.
00:39:46.592 --> 00:39:48.273
'cause I'm gonna continue watching them.
00:39:48.981 --> 00:39:49.271
Good.
00:39:50.132 --> 00:39:55.052
'cause now I'm sick and another excuse to watch.
00:39:55.052 --> 00:39:55.862
Familiar.
00:39:55.862 --> 00:39:56.702
Good content.
00:39:56.972 --> 00:39:57.452
I think.
00:39:57.996 --> 00:39:58.356
Yeah.
00:40:00.092 --> 00:40:03.992
Well, sorry guys for that very long rant about why top gear's amazing.
00:40:04.322 --> 00:40:04.623
Um.
00:40:05.001 --> 00:40:05.581
No, it's good.
00:40:07.277 --> 00:40:11.688
We will move on to our shared topic this week.
00:40:11.867 --> 00:40:15.947
This week the shared topic is a movie called Bushwhacked.
00:40:16.458 --> 00:40:19.307
I know you guys have never heard of it before.
00:40:19.938 --> 00:40:24.768
Uh, this is a movie from my past.
00:40:24.797 --> 00:40:29.717
Uh, this movie is associated with my first like sleepover.
00:40:31.083 --> 00:40:33.753
Um, it wasn't really a sleepover.
00:40:33.753 --> 00:40:38.043
We were supposed to be sleeping and doing a scout camp in the backyard.
00:40:38.762 --> 00:40:40.623
Um, but we didn't do that.
00:40:40.623 --> 00:40:47.717
We went inside and it was my one and only, like, I wasn't allowed to have sleepovers as a kid.
00:40:49.157 --> 00:40:52.367
So this was my one and only like sleepover experience.
00:40:52.728 --> 00:41:01.427
I made the mistake of being the first one to fall asleep, so they put warm water on my crotch area to make me think I wet my pants.
00:41:01.577 --> 00:41:10.007
Um, jokes on them though, because I was wearing shorts underneath my, uh, pajama pants.
00:41:10.038 --> 00:41:13.128
So I just took'em off and I was like, Nope, still dry.
00:41:13.128 --> 00:41:13.547
I'm good.
00:41:14.507 --> 00:41:15.137
That was weird.
00:41:15.797 --> 00:41:16.818
And I went back to sleep.
00:41:17.572 --> 00:41:20.166
You guys were weird for that, wouldn't I?
00:41:21.842 --> 00:41:22.322
Yeah.
00:41:22.563 --> 00:41:31.143
Um, anyway, so while we were avoiding doing what we were supposed to be doing, we put on this movie that I?
00:41:31.143 --> 00:41:33.273
had never heard of before.
00:41:34.983 --> 00:41:39.427
And Lauren, I'm very curious as to what you thought of this experience.
00:41:41.016 --> 00:41:43.836
Uh, an experience is definitely a word.
00:41:45.527 --> 00:41:47.898
It was an experience you cannot deny.
00:41:47.898 --> 00:41:48.963
It was an experience
00:41:49.327 --> 00:41:52.117
definitely experience the whole time.
00:41:53.706 --> 00:41:57.157
it has, oh, the actor's name, I need to pull it back up.
00:41:57.637 --> 00:41:58.237
Um.
00:41:59.947 --> 00:42:02.646
He is the guy from, uh,
00:42:02.753 --> 00:42:02.822
alone.
00:42:03.186 --> 00:42:12.277
home Alone and I thought he was in 101 Dalmatians, but he's like the same character in
00:42:12.422 --> 00:42:12.693
Yeah.
00:42:13.237 --> 00:42:14.226
everything.
00:42:14.617 --> 00:42:25.597
And I was like trying to think of,'cause he's so good at making like crazy faces that he just looks absolutely insane.
00:42:27.217 --> 00:42:27.577
Um.
00:42:29.061 --> 00:42:55.791
The actor, Daniel Stern, he, so to explain this to everybody, Daniel Stern is this, delivery man who gets roped into, like, don't, I wasn't paying attention to what the, the, he was.
00:42:56.481 --> 00:42:57.322
think it was money.
00:42:57.322 --> 00:42:59.961
Like he was trying to move money for these people.
00:43:01.822 --> 00:43:05.331
but he was just dumb and he was just like, oh yeah, I'm a delivery guy.
00:43:05.632 --> 00:43:11.152
You're offering more money, so of course I'm gonna do this shady deal with you because it's money.
00:43:11.871 --> 00:43:18.172
And, uh, this guy ends up, um, faking his own death and blaming it on Max.
00:43:18.202 --> 00:43:20.902
So Max was on the run and.
00:43:23.061 --> 00:43:29.211
Just like if there is a worst way to handle any situation, that is what this guy does.
00:43:32.242 --> 00:43:38.961
So, uh, when I started watching this, Josh was like, oh, well hope you're, and you're really tired.
00:43:39.202 --> 00:43:43.371
And I was like, don't worry, I'm really tired and I'm on pain medication, so it'll be great.
00:43:44.827 --> 00:43:48.021
And like I did enjoy it while I was watching it.
00:43:48.291 --> 00:43:50.391
And the whole time I was just like.
00:43:51.202 --> 00:43:52.461
I'm really glad I'm on drugs.
00:43:55.911 --> 00:44:00.831
But um, so this guy is driving across the country.
00:44:00.831 --> 00:44:01.911
They know what he looks like.
00:44:01.911 --> 00:44:03.891
They know what he is driving'cause he stole the car.
00:44:03.891 --> 00:44:06.577
So there's like an out on him and he sees.
00:44:07.507 --> 00:44:09.427
This on the news in a gas station.
00:44:09.427 --> 00:44:13.387
So he steals this like, um, scout master's car.
00:44:14.317 --> 00:44:18.967
'cause the scout master is trying to tell him that he parked in a handicap space and that's no good.
00:44:19.177 --> 00:44:28.206
So he glues the scout master to the steering wheel and he's like, you just keep driving to Mexico where I'm gonna shoot you.
00:44:30.186 --> 00:44:36.036
And then he ends up getting roped in to taking care of this scout master.
00:44:37.206 --> 00:44:46.686
Like group of kids and they call him the spider and he just accidentally keeps like showing them how to survive in the wild.
00:44:46.896 --> 00:44:48.666
'cause this bear starts mulling him.
00:44:48.666 --> 00:44:51.757
But he like passes out and they're like, yeah, no, he's doing good.
00:44:51.757 --> 00:44:52.836
You're supposed to play.
00:44:55.356 --> 00:44:57.876
And I was like, for a kid movie.
00:44:57.876 --> 00:45:00.996
Like they're, it's kind of really throwing him around.
00:45:04.177 --> 00:45:04.597
Um.
00:45:05.751 --> 00:45:07.612
But yeah, it was just like shenanigans like that.
00:45:07.612 --> 00:45:11.032
And then halfway through the kids realize he's not who he says he was.
00:45:11.242 --> 00:45:12.831
So try to turn on him.
00:45:12.952 --> 00:45:17.092
And there's this FBI agent that teams up with the scoutmaster, try to find the boys.
00:45:17.362 --> 00:45:24.172
Everybody thinks everybody off of the mountain thinks that the boys are being held hostage by Max.
00:45:24.501 --> 00:45:29.902
Um, but the kids really just thought that he was the scoutmaster the most of the time.
00:45:30.351 --> 00:45:32.422
Um, but then when the.
00:45:33.157 --> 00:45:41.106
BI agent and the scoutmaster catch up, they find out that like the FBI agent wasn't an FBI agent and was actually working with the guy.
00:45:43.626 --> 00:45:45.996
Yeah, there's a lot going on in this movie now that I realize.
00:45:50.016 --> 00:45:51.487
So the FBI agent.
00:45:52.702 --> 00:45:53.961
Who isn't the FBI agent?
00:45:54.382 --> 00:45:59.152
Um, ties up the scout master and then is now trying to kill Max and the kids.
00:45:59.541 --> 00:46:11.931
And so Max and the kids throw their backpacks off a waterfall, so everybody thinks they're dead, but they still have to find, uh, the packages at the top of this mountain to Wale.
00:46:13.927 --> 00:46:16.746
Improve Max's innocence at the end.
00:46:17.077 --> 00:46:22.621
So now they're still trying to get to the top and then the mom just drives there in like five minutes to go get the kids.
00:46:24.067 --> 00:46:30.907
Well, this has been like a three day journey for the, to make it to the top.
00:46:32.106 --> 00:46:37.806
But then of course by then the kids and Max are like tight.
00:46:38.161 --> 00:46:45.661
And, um, the mom is kind of okay with him because he saves, uh, her kid from falling off of a cliff.
00:46:46.141 --> 00:46:48.181
And, uh, yeah.
00:46:48.271 --> 00:46:53.822
And then it ends with him getting like an honorary scout thing and getting mobbed by millions of children.
00:46:53.822 --> 00:46:58.621
And he is, he's now taking care of all of these kids in Yosemite.
00:46:58.621 --> 00:46:58.976
And I was like.
00:47:00.021 --> 00:47:00.411
No.
00:47:01.882 --> 00:47:04.371
Why did you, why would you do that?
00:47:04.641 --> 00:47:12.382
You don't give that many kids like a weirdo like Max because of all of these kids for like a week.
00:47:12.472 --> 00:47:12.922
No.
00:47:14.242 --> 00:47:16.942
So it was funny, there were shenanigans.
00:47:17.331 --> 00:47:23.871
Uh, I, there was this scene where he was teaching'em about the birds and the bees, and I was like.
00:47:24.711 --> 00:47:29.061
We didn't need that, that that scene could have just been cut out.
00:47:30.952 --> 00:47:42.771
but yeah, the rest of it was, um, you have shenanigans and crazy eyes and yeah, if you're really tired, this is a, a show to watch.
00:47:44.782 --> 00:47:46.161
It's an experience to have.
00:47:48.523 --> 00:47:50.983
It sure is an experience to have.
00:47:52.873 --> 00:47:54.617
What would you rate it on a scale of one to 10?
00:47:55.476 --> 00:47:57.007
On drugs.
00:47:57.036 --> 00:47:58.086
It was a six.
00:47:59.197 --> 00:48:00.007
Looking back,
00:48:00.077 --> 00:48:03.137
I thought you'd be a little bit better on drugs,
00:48:04.987 --> 00:48:08.976
well, it's only because it's, I probably would never watch this again.
00:48:09.306 --> 00:48:10.086
Um,
00:48:10.427 --> 00:48:11.688
but you said on drugs,
00:48:11.916 --> 00:48:12.757
on drugs.
00:48:12.817 --> 00:48:13.297
Yeah.
00:48:13.307 --> 00:48:15.047
but It sounds like you had a great time with it.
00:48:15.047 --> 00:48:15.708
On drugs.
00:48:15.797 --> 00:48:16.608
I'm confused.
00:48:17.958 --> 00:48:18.918
I get give it a.
00:48:18.918 --> 00:48:23.253
six off of drugs and in hindsight, but on drugs, it really seems like you enjoyed it.
00:48:25.056 --> 00:48:28.117
Okay, bump it up to a seven because
00:48:28.367 --> 00:48:28.907
Okay, cool.
00:48:28.956 --> 00:48:33.726
was freaking, I did laugh a lot about like his facial expressions and stuff.
00:48:35.407 --> 00:48:46.806
Um, off drugs, I'd probably say 4.5 because I'd rather watch, um, black Panther.
00:48:49.338 --> 00:48:51.108
Fair enough.
00:48:51.202 --> 00:48:53.362
medications and really tired, yeah, let's watch.
00:48:55.943 --> 00:48:56.233
Okay.
00:48:56.748 --> 00:48:57.858
That's totally fair.
00:48:58.487 --> 00:49:03.077
Uh, so I haven't seen this since I was a kid.
00:49:03.498 --> 00:49:07.608
I watched it that one time and yesterday.
00:49:10.128 --> 00:49:10.608
That's it.
00:49:10.668 --> 00:49:12.228
I watched it a total of two times.
00:49:12.228 --> 00:49:19.862
I, uh, I remember as an 11-year-old boy thinking like some of it was kind of funny and most of it kind of wasn't.
00:49:21.108 --> 00:49:30.557
And I still believe that today, um, I kind of agree with you and disagree with you about the birds in the bee scene.
00:49:31.338 --> 00:49:44.088
It is long for what it is, like it goes on for like two whole minutes and it should have been like a 15 second scene, but it made me laugh as much today as I did as a kid.
00:49:44.297 --> 00:49:48.288
When he went, oh, at the end I was like.
00:49:48.737 --> 00:49:48.947
Okay.
00:49:48.947 --> 00:49:50.358
That's, that's funny.
00:49:50.838 --> 00:49:54.827
Um, did it need to be as long as it was?
00:49:54.858 --> 00:49:56.538
No, definitely not.
00:49:56.777 --> 00:50:05.088
But the fact that the kids were kind of like figuring out that he wasn't a scout master, and they were like, it says in the manual, you have to teach us.
00:50:05.568 --> 00:50:06.947
And he was just like, okay.
00:50:07.248 --> 00:50:09.527
I, I was like, okay, this is funny.
00:50:09.768 --> 00:50:15.557
Um, this is little chuckles spread out.
00:50:15.873 --> 00:50:19.172
Through excruciatingly dull scenes.
00:50:19.592 --> 00:50:25.262
Um, and like there's some jokes that are just not that funny.
00:50:25.413 --> 00:50:40.563
Uh, like you've got the actual scoutmaster who's supposed to have like climbed Mount Everest and fought a tiger with his bare hands or something and has the nickname spider for whatever reason, right?
00:50:41.702 --> 00:50:43.862
And he shows up on screen and he's like the scrat.
00:50:46.128 --> 00:50:51.648
Lanky kind of guy and you're like, he's, he's the guy.
00:50:51.648 --> 00:50:54.588
I think he voices Yago and Aladdin.
00:50:55.307 --> 00:50:56.507
I think that's the same guy.
00:50:57.018 --> 00:51:00.137
If not, he's got a very similar like body typist, that guy.
00:51:00.137 --> 00:51:01.547
So you guys know what I'm talking about.
00:51:01.847 --> 00:51:03.827
You're like, that guy's not an adventurer.
00:51:04.577 --> 00:51:11.117
That guy has not climbed a 10 foot tall mountain, much less Mount Everest.
00:51:12.452 --> 00:51:12.672
Um.
00:51:15.572 --> 00:51:17.342
Okay, a 10 foot tall cliff.
00:51:17.402 --> 00:51:29.313
Um, like I don't buy the, he is what they're saying this guy is, and the fact that he just like accepts being glued to the steering wheel.
00:51:29.313 --> 00:51:31.052
I didn't find funding either.
00:51:31.532 --> 00:51:34.503
I'm like, I get the guy has a gun.
00:51:35.012 --> 00:51:40.532
But you're supposed to have fought a tiger with your bare hands or a bear or something.
00:51:41.072 --> 00:51:51.992
This guy is very clearly some unhinged crazy person and like you should be able to take him like fairly easily.
00:51:52.052 --> 00:51:57.813
I, I, like, I would chance my, I would take the chance of fighting this guy.
00:51:58.563 --> 00:52:02.972
You're supposed to be this like go all do all adventurer guy and.
00:52:03.737 --> 00:52:08.027
You just like, okay, I will let you glue me to the steering wheel.
00:52:08.387 --> 00:52:17.268
And then you get to the end of that experience and the cops pull over the actual scoutmaster and they rip him out of the car and they're like, ha ha so funny.
00:52:17.268 --> 00:52:22.648
And I'm like, no, that's not funny.
00:52:24.438 --> 00:52:24.737
Like,
00:52:24.847 --> 00:52:27.157
Yeah, the prolonged DL and zoom out.
00:52:27.157 --> 00:52:27.786
I was like.
00:52:27.947 --> 00:52:31.967
yeah, we can move on from That Like.
00:52:32.807 --> 00:52:33.498
Ha ha.
00:52:33.498 --> 00:52:38.867
He, he was super glued to a steering wheel and they ripped him off and that hurt him.
00:52:39.978 --> 00:52:41.867
Ha ha ha ha.
00:52:42.391 --> 00:52:42.552
happened.
00:52:43.458 --> 00:52:43.847
Yep.
00:52:45.527 --> 00:52:50.898
And those are the kinda scenes that are, that are in between the actual funny parts.
00:52:51.047 --> 00:52:58.427
Um, that being said, this is very much a hot rod, um, nacho Libre kind of humor.
00:52:59.447 --> 00:53:01.128
Um, and I do think it's.
00:53:01.682 --> 00:53:06.273
Better than those because I absolutely despise those.
00:53:06.302 --> 00:53:08.253
I think those movies are garbage.
00:53:08.492 --> 00:53:12.003
Those movies are nothing But the ripping off scene.
00:53:12.518 --> 00:53:12.737
Uh,
00:53:16.161 --> 00:53:17.121
But you have the babe.
00:53:22.188 --> 00:53:22.648
I'm aware.
00:53:23.121 --> 00:53:23.632
I love
00:53:23.898 --> 00:53:24.438
I'm aware.
00:53:25.456 --> 00:53:25.677
it.
00:53:25.702 --> 00:53:30.527
I'm, I'm, uh, I'm aware I, get that a lot of people like those movies.
00:53:30.557 --> 00:53:34.097
If you like those movies, uh, you'll probably like this one.
00:53:34.097 --> 00:53:35.208
Just not as much.
00:53:35.688 --> 00:53:38.148
Uh,'cause there's not as much of that kind of stuff in it.
00:53:38.297 --> 00:53:39.108
Um,
00:53:41.632 --> 00:53:45.891
I, I disagree'cause I like those movies, but I don't like this one.
00:53:45.891 --> 00:53:45.922
I
00:53:46.788 --> 00:53:47.717
you gave it a six,
00:53:48.862 --> 00:53:49.581
on drugs.
00:53:49.637 --> 00:53:50.657
uh, 4.5.
00:53:50.777 --> 00:53:50.838
Yeah.
00:53:52.402 --> 00:53:52.641
But the
00:53:52.668 --> 00:53:57.407
I would argue to get any enjoyment in those movies, you need to be on a lot of drugs.
00:53:57.918 --> 00:53:59.777
'cause those movies are terrible.
00:54:00.931 --> 00:54:02.617
I, I like Hot Rod.
00:54:02.677 --> 00:54:04.476
I love Nacho Libre.
00:54:05.646 --> 00:54:11.586
am, I will quote, um, not, not Nacho, um,
00:54:12.737 --> 00:54:13.248
Napoleon,
00:54:13.987 --> 00:54:16.476
but I don't like watching Napoleon.
00:54:16.536 --> 00:54:19.387
It gets Embarrassed way too much,
00:54:22.112 --> 00:54:22.293
Okay.
00:54:23.231 --> 00:54:23.452
but.
00:54:23.762 --> 00:54:25.833
I don't like those movies at all.
00:54:26.072 --> 00:54:31.617
They're all just like, those movies make me feel stupid.
00:54:34.192 --> 00:54:36.711
And this, this, does this one make you feel stupid?
00:54:36.722 --> 00:54:37.862
Not as stupid?
00:54:38.103 --> 00:54:41.943
'cause I do think some of the jokes are kind of clever, right?
00:54:41.943 --> 00:54:42.032
Like.
00:54:42.277 --> 00:54:42.356
Hmm
00:54:43.233 --> 00:54:51.782
When he gets the kids to pee off the cliff and the FBI agent is like warm rain.
00:54:52.322 --> 00:54:53.943
This feels nice.
00:54:54.032 --> 00:55:01.742
Like, yeah, that's disgusting and kind of funny, not laugh out loud, funny, but a little chuckle.
00:55:01.742 --> 00:55:01.833
Sure.
00:55:01.833 --> 00:55:01.893
Um,
00:55:03.306 --> 00:55:04.476
Uh, I,
00:55:04.938 --> 00:55:05.057
I
00:55:05.137 --> 00:55:07.356
hated that scene when he started licking his lips.
00:55:07.777 --> 00:55:07.806
I.
00:55:08.688 --> 00:55:11.297
Yeah, that took it a little far for sure.
00:55:12.047 --> 00:55:20.958
Um, but like, yeah, I'm gonna give it a 4.5 outta 10'cause I still don't like it.
00:55:21.588 --> 00:55:27.257
Um, as an 11-year-old boy, I probably would've given it a six.
00:55:27.648 --> 00:55:29.393
So I'm right there with you, Mike.
00:55:31.233 --> 00:55:34.143
If you're 11 and you have history with scouts, I.
00:55:34.143 --> 00:55:37.623
think that also changes my perspective on that a little bit.
00:55:37.623 --> 00:55:50.652
Having been a scout, um, like yeah, if there's some good stuff in it, is this going to be high on my rewatch list?
00:55:51.407 --> 00:55:53.327
No, absolutely not.
00:55:53.327 --> 00:56:02.927
It's going to be, not going to be, if I had to choose today, which would I rather watch Black Panther or This I would rather watch Black Panther to be fair.
00:56:02.927 --> 00:56:13.608
That is because I just watched this and I think I need a good 20 years again to, to get back to being able to enjoy some of this movie.
00:56:13.967 --> 00:56:14.358
Um.
00:56:14.407 --> 00:56:16.086
an every 20 year watch.
00:56:16.697 --> 00:56:20.807
Yeah, they, 15 to 20 years.
00:56:20.807 --> 00:56:22.998
You know, you might get a few chuckles out of this one.
00:56:24.467 --> 00:56:37.608
Um, yeah, it's, I would say it's underrated simply because I've never met somebody who's seen it, and I do think it's worth giving a shot.
00:56:37.878 --> 00:56:44.568
it's worth giving a shot, like you wouldn't say to somebody who hasn't seen it to try it out.
00:56:45.472 --> 00:56:46.101
It depends.
00:56:46.101 --> 00:56:49.461
There's some people that I'll just be like, yeah, not worth it.
00:56:49.492 --> 00:56:49.702
Some
00:56:49.983 --> 00:56:50.373
Yeah.
00:56:50.692 --> 00:56:50.931
maybe.
00:56:52.233 --> 00:56:52.563
Yeah.
00:56:53.132 --> 00:56:54.932
like, there's a part of me that's like maybe.
00:56:54.932 --> 00:56:56.313
Con would enjoy this.
00:56:57.543 --> 00:56:59.702
Maybe, I don't know.
00:56:59.882 --> 00:57:01.322
Hopefully we'll find out next week.
00:57:01.461 --> 00:57:01.911
well bet.
00:57:01.922 --> 00:57:02.643
Probably not.
00:57:02.811 --> 00:57:03.081
it
00:57:03.963 --> 00:57:04.952
I don't think he will.
00:57:05.097 --> 00:57:05.217
a
00:57:05.282 --> 00:57:06.873
I think he'll be right here with us.
00:57:06.873 --> 00:57:09.123
I think he'll be like, there's some funny stuff in it blah, blah.
00:57:09.782 --> 00:57:11.222
It's a lot of rough stuff too.
00:57:11.853 --> 00:57:12.123
Um.
00:57:12.621 --> 00:57:13.041
Yeah, yeah.
00:57:13.041 --> 00:57:16.911
I think you're right with like, I feel like there was some jokes.
00:57:16.911 --> 00:57:23.032
The ones that did land me, they then just extended it to the point that it didn't land with me anymore.
00:57:23.327 --> 00:57:23.688
Yeah.
00:57:24.257 --> 00:57:25.518
yeah, absolutely right.
00:57:25.518 --> 00:57:33.467
The, the, the ping on the cops funny and then not funny, the birds and the bees scene.
00:57:33.648 --> 00:57:35.628
Funny then, not funny.
00:57:35.927 --> 00:57:38.097
Um, so it's.
00:57:39.753 --> 00:57:41.943
Then some jokes just Don't land on it.
00:57:42.063 --> 00:57:52.503
So I don't know there if, like I said, if you are a fan of Nacho Libre, Napoleon Dynamite, hot Rod kind of movies, I do think this one's worth a shot.
00:57:54.452 --> 00:57:55.353
I would say try it.
00:57:56.222 --> 00:58:00.813
Um, if you're not, I would say I probably.
00:58:03.782 --> 00:58:04.112
I
00:58:04.327 --> 00:58:04.746
do it.
00:58:04.922 --> 00:58:06.663
really enjoy it very much, but it.
00:58:06.663 --> 00:58:08.762
wasn't like the worst movie I've ever seen.
00:58:09.711 --> 00:58:10.222
Yeah.
00:58:12.422 --> 00:58:12.813
so Yeah.
00:58:14.342 --> 00:58:15.302
Any last thoughts?
00:58:16.492 --> 00:58:17.902
Uh, nope.
00:58:18.351 --> 00:58:20.271
I think we covered it all.
00:58:21.333 --> 00:58:21.753
Okay.
00:58:22.563 --> 00:58:25.472
Thank you everybody for watching and or listening.
00:58:25.472 --> 00:58:26.672
Really appreciate you guys.
00:58:27.092 --> 00:58:29.342
Let us know if there's anything you want us to watch.
00:58:29.432 --> 00:58:31.382
I love getting recommendations.
00:58:31.382 --> 00:58:33.902
It makes it really easy to choose topics that way.
00:58:34.413 --> 00:58:38.402
Um, like we just automatically do it.
00:58:38.402 --> 00:58:38.822
It's great.
00:58:38.913 --> 00:58:44.193
Um, remember, it'll be better today than yesterday and have a great rest of your day.
00:58:44.193 --> 00:58:44.222
I.
