Good morning afternoon or evening and welcome to the bloody disgusting network.
The passage of time will now bring you to something strange, unique and idiosyncratic.
Have a good time.
I wonder why we waste our lives here and we could run away to paradise.
But I am held in some invisible vice and I can't get away to live and die in Hollywood King.
Greetings constant listeners and welcome back to the losers club a Stephen King podcast
presented by Bloody FM the number one horror podcast network out there and thank you to everybody
Wang Chung tonight for that sultry song that gets us in a sultry mood. But what better place to
be sultry than Hollywood King where wave errors are required convertibles are cool again and the
trades are stacked with our man Stephen King we have got tweets we've got threads we've got blues
and yes we've got all the stories to catch you up in King's Dominion. I'm your host Michael
Monroeville mall Rothman smoking my sigs as I sizzle in the sun who we lord have mercy is
fucking hot I am burning up but hopefully my trusty losers brought me some sunscreen because
otherwise it may be a little too hot to tango. Let's say Justin is it getting hot finally in
Chicago because I love some hot midwesterners rowing around the neighborhoods and getting their
sweat all over those seeds what it was it's getting a little warmer what would tell us this is
aira the guy who was in mad about you and also William Peterson's partner and to live in
LA Justin Gerber and you know what's funny it was an incredible day yesterday it was as
has it's been it got into the 60s maybe even the 70s wow and it was beautiful it was the first day
where the it was a second day I guess where it was brighter later it was warm out it was great
today it was back in the 30s and I can't care for it and it was cloudy again and I was just
dying so there was a little tease of sweaty seats and Roman midwesterners yesterday but we're back
we're back in the in the jackets tomorrow pretty much so well at least as you know it's brighter
later I'll take that it's it's bright it's not pitch black at 4 p.m. so I'm so you do appreciate
those the daylight saving time and we got we got a little bit that we'll be talking about and I
believe one of the tweets or the threads or the blues um but so put a pen on that for a second um
let's go over to New York where my man Caffrey say hello and uh do you think the current war
is going to hit our shores oh god so Stan Cawenga Cawenga Caffrey isn't that a street
now that's a street in LA and I'm in the East Coast my heart hey you know hey look at the the
heart is fine and it's it's beaten with a lot of sweat and the rapidity because it's the LA heat
is it's pretty hot yeah it's nine degrees dance your question actually google this today yeah
I was actually reading about the state um I don't think we will get nuked or anything like that
I do worry about would you say knock on wood yeah I I don't know I don't know if I
well I'm talking more we got it we're in the war room now you know I um I don't think I ran
this capability to that what I do worry about is that their individual terror cell units
around the world that's I worry more about individual I mean we even saw it up with um
and it's not directly really to the war but with there was this counter protest that mum Donnie's
mansion here yeah and it was for people in favor of him but they were doing this what what's
called an ISIS inspired attack so I think I think we're I know once again that's not directly
tied to the war it was counter-protesting these asshole white supremacists but I think we're
going to see more individual attacks like that what you said I couldn't agree more um yeah
yeah I saw but yeah I saw so Wallace Sean the great Wallace Sean oh for most people don't know
is a player just bride yeah oh yeah for riftkins riftkins riftkins the what's the what's the is he
my dinner with Andre when he yeah yeah could because they have the action figures at the end of
government oh yeah he's like what he says like um he's like oh how do you get into this place so
you always find reservation oh you get the best places and they's like those aren't lines for
the movie but you can make them say whatever you want um but no while Sean's start off it's not
start off he's always been a player right and his plays are fucking filthy they're like these
torture like taught he always he always says oh my plays are examining the feral animal inside me
he's like this little you know rubbish guy but anyway we know it's funny because his voice so he
has this one person play called the fever that I saw the other night and he's performing it he's
81 he wrote this play like 40 years ago he he's performed yet and in rap with the play so he
was younger than all of us and Princess Brad get this this play is running in rap with a new play
if he's called uh what we did in our moth days that's directed by Andre Gregory from my dinner
with Andre who is 91 man is directing oh my god off Broadway plays so in 91 years younger 91
years old I think young they've seen that I saw them do a good yeah criteria on yeah vault kind of
thing and uh he's like where am I no he's on pretty spry but anyway he I'm so all of Sean I know
we're not when you're older so I'm just kidding this this play the fever it's great I read in
grad school it's about this guy who um it's like a quote good liberal and he goes to a third world
country and you know just feels guilty about his entire life and that like it's it's about him
converting to leftism but also being like because while Sean always says like oh I'm like a very
cowardly person so it's like saying converting to leftism with but also being afraid to go to a
protest but anyway so he did this play and it was great he came out on stage and out of character
and just talked to the audience for a little bit and he actually said and it's funny because it says
his speaking voice when he's not performing is more like this oh that's interesting I just
imagine he sounds like like Rex from Toy Story yeah Rex he can still do that like and when he gets
emotional when he's performing his voice goes up but his speaking voice is very thoughtful and slow
but he taught and he talked about like you know I know about about being attacked by Iran
and he's like and I don't think that'll happen in my lifetime but I don't know like
yeah so I've been thinking a lot about that this week and the fever is also very good people
should see it if if you have the chance not not too expensive either well see it before if it's too
expensive apparently you know you can see it before we get bombed apparently yeah exactly that's
that I was just gonna say you know the silver lining though is that none of us live in major cities
in this country so um you know we only live in the top three biggest cities I just say we live
literally in the three you're in New York common LA just as a Chicago so it's good though we're
this is a fun time because you know look I always love to roll the dice with life so I think I'm
just gonna keep on keeping on and that's the best way you can do it and especially the only way
you could do it when you're out here and out in here in Hollywood because you're rolling the dice
every time you're turning a corner I'm saying you're hitting sunset you're rolling a dice on whether
or not you're gonna get over to Coenga or you know or anywhere else so um let's roll the dice
ourselves into a section I love maybe my favorite section in all of podcasting that we've done
maple tweets he's not a human being don't you see what he's done
we kill him oh it's thought sort them out
well you're all reading you've all the all CDs so Justin why don't you kick it off with this
killer joke uh that uh king gave us yesterday on twitter this says as of uh two days ago as of
10 41 a.m. I'm assuming this is specific host time it's a 206,000 views yeah do you write this
do you think this is my quote before we hear it yes I can tell you why I think you wrote it I'll
tell you why I think you wrote it it's kind of clever yeah I mean read it so he says question
why the snoop dog carry an umbrella and by the way the dog here is with one G that's why I know he wrote it
okay that's a good point that's a good that's that's very stupid so I'll read it again why the snoop dog
carry an umbrella foge riddle you know it's not yeah I guess maybe you heard a song I
personally it's because I know he can get a little cringey with more of his um political and
self-righteous tweets oh well let's say this is all we got yeah because that's what he's
tweaking right because that seems to be in the norm I I don't mind when he does this this is just
him being it's fun that's fun being fun and jokie and no kind of leaning into his dad humor a little
bit that doesn't bother me how well it makes me think of just how I think all of us live life now
where it's like oh yeah let me just make a joke and you know focus on that and it's a nice little
reprieve uh it's a gasp if you will of uh you know the the inner souls that we have and so he he
loves it he loves dad jokes and so that's his thing mine is watching shitty FX shows and um and
reading you know Indiana Jones books that were released for children um I I will say this I'm not
saying I think this is a case of maybe a lot of different people in different places can't put
this joke there is a reddit thread from 14 year 15 years ago that has the same joke oh but I don't
but I don't think he ripped it off I think it was just he thought of it later and then there's
a bunch of elaborations on the joke and the reddit thread that's what I'm saying I think he's just
says everybody's it's like a hype mine would come to that type of joke so someone once that's a
rap you make it look to make the joke later on like who doesn't read it why does Snoop Dogg need a
condo for jizzle why does Snoop Dogg need a frying pan for sizzle uh you know that that works out
too I mean I actually out of all of those I think I like the jizzle one better because it's it's
little raunchy uh but you know you know we don't say we don't say jizz enough anymore to jizz is a
very funny that were that's also it's also the genre of um so in the first Star Wars movie new hope
the the band in most isolated cantina the genre that they're playing is officially called jizz oh
funny yeah do you think it was Lucas name jizz do you think jizz was a thing like back then or did
they have it all right the term jizz I think they called it jazz jizz no I um I think from now on
and we'll really know if people are listening I maybe I'll just call myself Justin jizz Gerber
and thank you I you know definitely do it on on like our the most serious episodes too I'll just
do it on the ranking episodes where we get like most people most people that are coming in yeah
it's Justin jizz Gerber and yeah I'm excited to talk about yeah I'm just practicing I'm
yeah I mean I mean we should all just like pick vague somewhat controversial nicknames just
just damn caprican just so just low bar uh shit um well you said jizz isn't really much used in
the vernacular anymore yeah but what about chinch chinchy I don't know that there's a I say it a
lot I say chinchy a lot oh you do well then why don't you read the next pair of my favorite dick
fan-dike movies chinchy chinchy bake-pink big if Disney wants to reboot I mean we got
yeah it's only they had the money they're only more so chinchy that's true that's all right so um
let's see pitbull tweeted this is mr is this is this actually pitbull this is the real pitbull I
don't think it's not jerky bought is is is is is is mr pitbull uh certify whatever is on pit
we went to dinner as a group and had a five hundred dollar bill we tipped forty dollars we were
happy we can be able to give our server something but her reaction was the opposite she told us she
assumed we're going to give her at least a hundred twenty dollars when we asked for the manager she
said she was just joking but she wasn't smiling at all I don't know but is forty dollars tip
enough for five hundred dollar bill I just feel like expecting one hundred and twenty dollars is
not realistically or Albertson then steaming king said her expectations were high but your tip was
chinchy twenty dollars of five hundred dollars equals one hundred dollars yeah twenty
percent of five hundred dollars this is five is a hundred dollars I so I have a weird thing because
it I'm not I'm pretty much the opposite of um god damn it what's his name um stebe shemi in
reservoir dogs where I do believe in in tipping I think it's like a I think it's important I think
it's you know I think we've all been in the service industry so we know it but also it's like
it kind of reminds me of a a nice little Helen Hunt movie called pay it for it where you know you
you you've got it you know paid for it a little bit and I think it's a nice karma to have you know
to to kind of make it seem in the you know like but the the makes the world go around what do you think
I mean do you think this guy was a cheap skater and he should be hot I guess his person's name is
Leo Robertson and to Leo Robertson if you're going to a dinner and it's a group by the way
yeah that's equally five hundred dollars you're paying an eight percent tip that's awful I'm sorry
that is awful I at least 20 percent yeah I would give the hundred dollars my question is tip
I think it's a group of people it's a group of people it's like it's like one person
no this is hard one person pay for you're still being too cheap yeah I remember the name Mr. Pebble
probably an asshole else I can only imagine the group was not fun to serve you know I can I
can't imagine this person doing this and then tweeting about it I know and then taking a picture of
the money that she was going to leave that's crazy what yeah shame on her also it says that Mr.
Pebble is a satire account yeah so I don't know but I but I know that doesn't sound like really
can you check reddit to see if this is a funny story like 15 years ago well if this is a if this
is a satire account that obviously that's funny because I don't know why you would yeah
maybe the rage rage rage tweet like I like trying to get like engagement for rage oh you know
I bet you maybe she's honestly most just cut this out then I guess if it is just literally
designed to be a rage tweet well this is a real person I think that's a good question because
I think we can use this as a shame tweet so you know those that do tip like this I don't believe
it I don't believe in hell but I will believe in hell for certain people yeah undertippings big
no no I don't I will say too chinsy I've always used chinsy to to describe something that
cheap yeah like more like no cheaper is kind of corny or like a little thing we know that this
picture of the money looks cheap so I guess it kind of still works from a stomach point of view yeah
I mean that that's got to be Stephen King's argument because you know the master of the word
I will say this if this is a joke and it's waiting to engage in an rage mission accomplished
that's a really I mean believable tweet hell of a win not only you get Stephen King and you got
the losers club the club the losers club so you know who's more important um believable well
what do you guys tip usually because I I realized I want to you know we mentioned that we're
all in major cities and I know that different cities have you know different costs and I've heard
that you know you have to tip like 30 35% out here and yeah really yeah because it's usually like
you know I heard that that's supposed to be like the the the good thing to do because obviously
they they force 22% on on some of the stuff but like even in Chicago is probably around the 25
30% range I'm always doing 25 usually I'm assuming it's spammy sometimes because I'll go a little
to the ice I do I include the tax so people don't include tax but I take on the tax yeah yeah
yes I think I've got I also do though I'll say this if people are upset I also will do that
if I'm just picking up at a counter and then they have the option there when you're even if
you're just picking up and they're not serving you I will still do 20% same same I
I think that's that's more of like a superstition for me now because it's like it's you know it
is out of the goodness of my heart but it's also I I feel like you know why would you
cut there it's like two dollars well the way I look at it is I know that they're not going to
pay a lot of money yes the least I can do is give them a little bit more money yeah yeah even
if I'm just literally going there and picking up the food that's there I mean I'll yeah I'm
a great person yeah I care too much I yeah sometimes that's my that's what I always put on my
resumes my biggest flaw I care too much one of the best moments of I think season seven of
curb is when Larry goes and meets Kastanza or Jason Alexander and they he like won't tell what he
tipped and so they keep there's like a battle of the tips and so he like he literally just
pays the bill and gives it over and then he finds out the next day like what he tipped and he was
just like higher and then the guy has to do this thing with his plates or whatever it's great scene
but uh yeah shame on anyone who doesn't tip uh next tweet I'll read this one February 23rd
23 LeBron and Jordan 23 number yeah that's good name good number um so Matt Pinner I don't know
who he is maybe is a satire account but uh I look it up here you know he says six for me I feel
confident nobody has all 20 how many for you and this is what he did you list it out and we
could say yay or nay for ourselves let's see how how many we got one used a rotary phone yes yeah
whatever you just yeah yeah yeah well um yeah really little yeah yeah I mean my grandmother
still had one and I hated it but I still did it I've definitely saw it and it was in use of
houses I was yeah never the preferred mode yeah two used to floppy disk yes yes yeah you know
used to typewriter yes briefly well really little really little yeah yeah not again there's
that my grandmother's house when I was bored I just go right things I used one of the not like an old
alavetti but like the the more modern looking ones that were a little bit longer that you could
do like the scroll paper um into it that well that's all you write your plays on right you're like
I agree yeah that's also a long hand too no I never liked it yeah I used it though yeah for sure
um four taken photos with a film camera I think we're all yeah yeah yeah I mean come on give me a
break I mean this is ridiculous now five listen to music on a CD still yeah oh yeah you that
hey no joke there if you ever wonder if you ever happen to be in a library no matter where you are
and you know that the album's there but it's checked out nine times it's going to be a cafe
that it was loaned to a library I read that Gen Z is actually buying CDs again like it's it's
there is a movement that's happening right now where I think a lot of people are missing
because all right I'll save this tangent for afterwards real quick let's just finish these real quick
six listen to a cassette tape yeah 100 percent I mean we all have listened to a vinyl record that's
number seven yeah uh now and also before yeah so yeah um eight listen to music at a walkman yep
yeah yep I had a black walkman and I had it when I got dangerous by Michael Jackson it was
the best one of the best I got it when I got crack review by the spent or oh man
I was supposed to like oh man oh we see I know we don't know jagged little pill I think for me
first CD it was like a get it was like a trio what was it I get a grip
oh and smashing pumpkins also four scum sound track yeah yeah yeah
I kept dookie and TLC dookie was a big one yeah TLC isn't good yeah it was a big one not the brown
oh no I did have the brown siding not the black siding to yeah yeah because the
cassette for dookie was blue um because I think the label did them all in blue or something like
oh wait I've told my CDs or cassettes well no CDs but yeah because the CDs was like a brown
dish gold or whatever um that we had but anyway uh nine listen to music on a boombox outside
yeah absolutely oh CD you know we're florida kids we did um this I mean some of this is suck
fucking easy 10 watch the video from a VHS cassette yeah VHS tape yeah yeah yeah just did the other
11 sent or received a fax yeah yes male job edit it was all my whole job yeah um 12 recorded
music from radio to cassette yep nice to do that I wanted to do that for like when they did
like three years five at nine and that was like the only way to listen to a new rock song yeah I
even before I burnt CDs and sold them out in the black market I would make mix tapes with cassettes
um 13 I'm pretty sure all of you've done this because I think most of you worked here uh 13 rented
a video from blackbuster oh yeah oh yeah yeah yeah um 14 access the internet by dial up
oh yeah of course yeah 15 used a phone book yeah we still got them like up to like I can say
these I said it's not that old I know I said that fucking what it's the guys like use an iPad you
know Jesus uh god fan of um the office um the you the the US one no that's not um 15 used
of oh no 16 sent a postcard yeah so yeah um 17 used a paper map to get somewhere no yeah I've
done that all right the earliest I would do would be map quest that's my that's my two because
there's my three that doesn't count yeah we we took a trip my senior of high school from Florida
to see my parents me fliger and two of our other friends and we all took turns driving now I will
say wasn't the one like I didn't have the map open like we had my friend Matt did that but we
we used a paper map to get up there wow okay I can't say I did well you know what
tells a good nightmare I'm gonna say we all I think we all have because if you go to Disneyland they
give you a paper map oh yeah that's true that's true and I used to collect them so you know
or honestly even in a national park you use them too yeah he's trail map still yeah yeah yeah
well I'm gonna say we did it let's just say we did it because because I did you know
but the other ones we definitely did 18 owned addictionary yep yep 19 owned in cycle pdf you had
all set yep you had a whole set yeah yeah I was still like no one was younger yeah
funken wagon also I remember I like I had um I stole some of the books that I liked um
they're coming to you so not the whole complete one yeah that would come at me although the irony
now is that I live across the street from the library um 20 page with the paper check yep yeah yeah
yeah no one will remember how awful it was to get paid at five o'clock on a Friday and not be
able to fucking go to the bank and have to wait until Monday yeah that did kind of suck actually yeah
yeah yeah my first job when I sent faxes that was right next to back then what was a Washington
mutual pretty pretty housing crisis obviously and yeah I would always like try to leave work five
minutes ago this I could run and do that yeah I would I would try and then the the sad thing is
it's a lot like pharmacies now where you know they're supposed to close at seven but they're not
gonna turn away people that are in line so yeah you would just make sure you get into the line
and these poor people would just be there for fucking two hours extra and I'm sure the
fucking bank didn't pay them so anyway but back to the point about so king tweeted with this
have used every fucking one little didn't need the the uh the language I mean it is kind of a bad boy
if this this guy this original tweets it's stupid though because you don't need to be that old to
have done a lot of this to have done any of this right like we're like two fought world war two yeah
yeah well this person said only six for them yeah so is this person like 15 years old I mean
yeah some of the stuff has just come back around if it was if it was like oh uh got milk delivered
in a glass bottle or like got like rice delivered yeah that that seems a little bit more uh legally
legally drink at 13 yeah like 11 believed in the American dream like that you know that would be
a good one for us um yeah I mean the the thing you were mentioning earlier about the CDs and people
buying them again uh you know I've been so I've been watching that JFK junior show if you couldn't
tell I'm wearing our backwards cap and um I you know the show is cursed it's it's it is cursed but
I because I remember all of it and I wasn't too far from when and the accident happened I was up
in upstate New York at the time um but I just there is a comfortability about this show because
I think people are really starting to feel the nostalgia that I think a lot of us have already had
like I think you know even though as much as I love the smartphones and stuff like that by 2008 2009
I was already like oh I do miss none of this was just when all this was still on our our desktop
and I could just go to the desktop when I needed to and I would walk away and we had no other
you know we weren't really texting a lot either it was just like all right let's just call or meet up
and I think a lot of kids are starting to feel that because there is this existential dread
that comes from you know being online doom scrolling all this shit and I have seen a lot of yeah
Gen Z talk about this and I think the JFK junior show is also the one of the reasons why it was
like the the appeal right now is because it is this decadent not a decadent time but like
a more optimistic time of like when there was connectivity and you know there was there was
mallet there was like pop things were palpable and tangible and colorful also and I don't know
it's been on my mind a lot and I think that's one of the reasons why I've been like
insconced in the show because it just I remember it all like I get just I just remember and
feel what it felt like going to like like writing my bike down the street to go do something or
getting something I think people miss it because what's the alternative right now like everything
every hangout place is gone for the most part unless you're going to drink um you know the movie
theaters are just a fucking shit show of whatever you're gonna see that week and most of the time
it's not great I I think there's there's there's there's a pining there yeah I understand the
sticker that was talking to Mack about this the other night on a we were talking about um
why people were fine with like spacing out the original Star Wars trilogy and I said well because
the bomb line is there wasn't a glut in the market yeah like there was movies there has always been
for a little I get you can say at least for 150 almost 100 years now there has been movies tv
music sports books right was like the five yeah major tenants of like entertainment that is literally
all we had back in the 90s even right and now there's so much more there's the internet
there's streaming services there are video games even you know they weren't video games in the 70s
early 80s once you play pong you know yeah or went to like a club now so I understand the
desire to go back there but for me personally I'm on Instagram on Fridays only yeah I don't
have to return anymore and I have like a lot of people but I just was like it's just not worth it
for my mental state I had to get off it yeah and I think we're all I feel like I sleep yeah I feel
like I do sleep better at night to be honest with you but I think they're the problem is unless
literally the majority if not the collective whole agrees to get rid of your smartphones it's
just it's you're always got to be on you know just just to be a part of the culture in any way
we have to be connected like that so but I do like I said you try to minimize it these days there's
been I know a lot of folks have been getting flip phones again and I you know if I didn't have a job
that was so entrenched in in digital media and stuff like that I would I think I would do it
because I am like I do try to be aware but here's a question of the flip phones because I love
listening to podcasts or music that's the problem yeah so that's I need that I still need
to listen to my music or my podcast I know I enjoy that I feel I don't feel bad after listening
to stuff you know me yeah maybe if they can make a flip phone that has like a Spotify that you just
growl through but like you would get limited to like you know four shows or something like I did I don't
I don't miss the iPads middle ground yeah but that middle ground of like having to
upload certain songs or you know carry around certain CDs like it did suck but it made me
appreciate some of the stuff more like I certainly soaked up albums more well if you were forced
to live with it even with CDs you're you were forced to you like Amazon to this CD and then leave
it in my CD player forever and then I'm not because I can't just go out and say I'm listening to this
band who haven't heard of because it's gonna be like $19 of the local record store you know I mean
here's here's the sobering moment that I had when I moved out here is that you know we'd I'd
rarely rent cars and then if I did you know it was only for the day or the afternoon so getting a
car out here it was the first time I realized like oh yeah like I never really driven like
collected like on a scheduled basis like on a daily basis I've never really driven with the technology
we have today like I had a CD changer and that was it so like when I'd go on road road trips like
that is all I had were the six or seven albums and I couldn't change it unless I went to you know
a gas station or something like that and so it has been kind of novel you know being in the car
and being able to put out whenever I want but it also is kind of I should pain in the ass because I
overthink it sometimes and I'm just like sitting there it's like the people talk about being on
the cues with Netflix and stuff at night so I don't know I kind of do miss the wish we had a
middle ground I think maybe we didn't like the early odds but you know whatever it's gone now

okay uh speaking of the early odds and in speaking of the super bowl because i think we were talking
about half-time shows earlier um Justin when you take the next one Adam Malone on February 9th
said it's hard to tell anymore i i'm not sure what the reference to he goes i know with the
super bowl they force them to which is super unfortunate i'm assuming they're talking about lip
sinking maybe yeah i think so it's why we'll never get a ban like metallic up there they wouldn't
do that knowing kid rock yes okay so i assume they are talking about sinking and Stephen King
reached we didn't say love metallic of that would be a super bowl show you haven't played yet
no i thought they had to but looked up he they have not and i think that uh i think that that
would be a good super bowl show um i know they're playing the they're playing the sphere i think
apparently that that will probably be a really good show i'm i am i i'm not a huge metallic
a fan but they're good live though they're great live yeah it would check out that they would play
oh yeah they would they would suit the super bowl very well yeah you're there do you think
you know you mentioned earlier before we got on creed playing um it wasn't the super bowl though right
it was just like a thanksgiving game to then 2001 that was the second worst thing that happened
to people during Thanksgiving yeah that's it i you know i i watched it the other day and i had
just never seen it and maybe i saw it live i just i just couldn't believe this actually was
existed but there was a halftime show that was like the indian adjones adventure when it
opened up on on uh in disney and i guess maybe because the halftime show was on abc or something
like that or this the game was on abc that was the show and it's really strange like if you got
to look it up like it's so fucking bizarre it's like they have this it's almost like the stunt
spectacular at mgm or whatever it's called anymore Hollywood studios and but in the middle of the
field so it's just like wait wait who is this for like i i mean i get that i mean i know we all
loved indian adjones in 95 or 96 but like it just seems like such a niche thing to be like yeah
let's do that like you know we'll get there well i feel like two modern halftime shows and not
them i know a ton about sports but i do feel like there's pressure now on modern halftime shows
to be everything right like you know when kendrick played which was great performance but it's like
always gonna comment on drake is he gonna comment on trump is it blah blah you have bad bunny right
like it's what do you say there's like only jake um yes they're like oh there's hidden messages
and i was like all those those will those will definitely be absorbed by our idiot country
well that's the thing right it's funny because it's it's it's almost like it has to be
entertained from the masses yeah it has to satisfy the terminally online has to satisfy the
super fans but even i just watched like a quick clip from this creed one it granted it's not the
super bowl but it's still a halftime show i think back in the day it was fine just to be like oh
we're just gonna come out and do a thing yeah we're gonna do all of it it'll be like one song and
even indiana jones is like yeah why would they do that you're like oh it's it just didn't seem like
there was as much i want to say stakes because super old is very high stakes but it there wasn't just
there wasn't pressure for it to be culturally important maybe so they could just do whatever i
guess because it used to be like kind of like more old school american pastime i mean there
there would be exceptions like like michael jaxson's uh halftime show is it was a huge deal i'm
ever watching it live it is still a spectacle to watch like it's like you know it's set a bar
but you're right i i wonder when that switch was it i mean it might have been jaxson that kind of
switch that but then you get you know jones there was like a break though for years because then i
remember i think it was the i think it was the oh one super bowl where it was in sync aerosmith
and britney spears yeah and then the next year was you two after nine eleven yeah and i feel like
after that it just kept getting bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger is what jaxson or oh three
oh yeah that uh it's over it's over for yeah yeah one and then even like it came into the
2010s i remember like Beyonce's was huge Katy Perry's is really good. Katy Perry's is great
Bruce James with the one of the best one of the best super bowl games of all time which was like
the giant we bought tickets like at halftime because we just see him at so good because it
started raining oh princess was good yeah yeah i remember we bought spring seeing tickets because
we had just seen him like nine in a year before that but um and yeah it was working on a dream
it wasn't as good as magic but i remember we i think we bought tickets just to buy off the
yeah super bowl performance right into the camera i think or something yeah i did yeah that was the
cardinals super bowl that they were up with two and a half minutes left and they lost it that's
as close as i'll ever get to the cardinals wait wasn't really like uh yeah so that wasn't that wasn't
the super bowl with the giants like or what pretty sure because the giant wrong about this i'll check
you keep talking about that because the giants might have been the next year but i just remember like
watching that religiously because i became like an e-line manning like fan just because it was such
an unreal game like it and they had this wild catch at the end that went down someone's leg and he
still got it and it just changed the whole i was it was fucking nuts but um you know in terms of
uh you know super bowl headliners um there's certainly one that we could you know choose here
kaffee running you read the next one i can confirm it was Bruce spring seeing at the cardinals
super bowl headliners have to help the super bowl for you so was it own nine that was
it was right till the end that was all right i think it was the oh eight season and the
own nine playoffs so it was the online super bowl i think it was in Tampa because i remember
my parents my parents were running uh performing art school at the time and one of the students
he he had a bunch of kids that like a volunteer to be in it one of the students was charged with
when he threw his guitar catching it i don't think he did catch i think he kind of like you know
i think it was like a prop guitar anyway yeah but uh very funny um okay cool here's uh this is
a retweet from my favorite john melanchamp uh the poor man spring seen in my opinion anyway
a steven king collaborator yeah uh ghost brothers in darklin county yeah we will have a little
bit of news for this uh oh interesting yeah um not uh not my favorite musical i'll say that um
but king retweeted melanchamp and said what melanchamp had said was i don't know what bad
bunny is saying however i do you know he's standing up reporter ikon i'm standing up for him
his halftime show is great great halftime show with that yeah that's um i didn't watch but um i
also don't watch uh taking a retirement from sports for a little bit but um yeah i thought it was
i thought it was really good yeah i thought it was great even um you we talked about the spectacle
of it all i think you know i'm not what i'm not personally that familiar bad bunny myself as i
said on her halvings episode you know i'm a little older and i don't know if it's necessarily
directed towards towards me but i thought he was great i thought that the set was great i thought
like it was kind of telling a story throughout yeah it was great you know you know what it is i'm
just realizing just thinking about the bad bunny show now on the Kendrick show and this is strange
to say for what's i think the most popular sport in america right i'm certainly up on the
seaming right yeah it's interesting because i feel like with the super bowl axe now there's
all there's all the stakes there's the pressure that's there that i mentioned earlier but they're
also pressured to do it in a way that's not too explicit do you know what i'm saying like like
Kendrick Lamar could turn anybody off yeah no for real like it's interesting and though so it
weirdly weirdly when you're making political art it kind of makes you put an artfulness on top of it
i mean like like bad bunny couldn't he couldn't go out and be like fuck trump right
in that woman cool but he can't he couldn't do that so like it's all he had to find this like kind
of elegant way to do that even with Kendrick um was isn't political but you know he couldn't go he
couldn't come out and say like Drake fucks kids right like that that wouldn't have worked and so
it's interesting it's like because it's i wouldn't necessarily call football you wouldn't think
of football oh this is gonna push you to make like more subtle art right but it kind of does in
the it does yeah strange way at least in the past decade or so i think yeah i'm trying to
think of like who's the ballsyest person that ever made a political statement in a major sports
setting i think Colin yeah he's like pretty ballsy but i think it works with the um the
fists in the air and the Olympics yeah seven days rose and bar screwing up the national
well she's the greatest of them all obviously it's just spit it was she's spitting same
probably well she did what she was acting like she was a baseball player she can't like grab
her cross spit like tapat like she was spitting tobacco i know i'm never a zan fan but i don't think
that was that bad you know i thought it was weird when they brought back Roseanne and then um
continued the show uh without Roseanne and um you know it seems i know it is kind of like just cancel
the fucking just cancel the show it's over years afterwards it was on for a very long time like she
i get and and what she did was horrible like she should have been fired but but it's like do we
really is this we're gonna need to keep this going i don't think we could edit out at that point
it'd be like you know Bob Newhart if Bob Newhart was like you know he got caught you know doing some
sort of sexual thing and they're like we're gonna keep doing the Newhart show but we're gonna call
it something else like family the show the show or whatever yeah the new yeah the new art for me
i didn't i didn't watch it but anyway just to know that for years after like on whatever night
it was on i know that she knew it was on yeah she wasn't a part of it anymore and the fact that
i knew that that probably really bothered her for me is worth it it's it's it's it's a it's a good
you know the story it really is it's yeah it was we'll comfort in that but did he kill her on the
show too is that yeah she got her head cut off yeah she was uh didn't some for Dan and she tripped
on the couch and her head her head fell off yeah this is a famous scene day and she's oh my god
and he goes rosy and it cuts a commercial break it's really weird but um that was only just
the cold open so you go it still goes into the credits where she's like but you know that
they always like transfer for the years and that's what heads missing it's it's weird because
the final season of the original rosanna which i'm assuming they retconed for this show
did kill you find out like Dan was dead right yeah all the jokes on her um yeah did
John the twist she's done getting you back well listen i'll i joke but i wish for the very best
yeah yeah for everyone you know we just were very kind loving people um i hope she's okay
i hope that she's not stumbling into a nightmare and certainly not want a nightmare in the blue
sky so really quick i like that you wait is that is is that an official category for us yeah oh no
it is sorry i thought for some reason i just thought this like what you designated this next
tweet as in the sheet and you're saying it like people would know oh no no it's a real debate
when we when when all the when the whole exile from twitter or met the exodus i should say from
twitter happen we had to figure out well do we just bundle them in as needful tweets which we could
have easily done and probably should have done or do we make subcategories for each one of them
and rest assured you know there's uh there's there's another one coming on i still get bin on
needful tweets episodes that but that i was just laughing because i thought you were saying like the
listener would know what this what but they do obviously i hope i think they're i think they're even
is a cue i'm pretty sure there is a sound cue and i don't mean bon cue um so nightmares in the blue
sky steven king on blue sky he blew or did we say he blew or he he he blew okay he blew all right
yeah um so mart camel uh the the Jedi master himself he tweeted spring forward fallback whatever can we
pick just one and stick with it once and for all and it says dear daylight savings time no thanks
and then steven king uh wrote lovda yeah mark i i think it's just supposed to be lovia but it
it doesn't believe that anymore no love to him but now he disagrees with him
yeah it sounds maybe it's a main thing too um you're my main man but i like daylight savings time
i i think i'm a little more indifferent towards it although
losing the hour sucks it's it's just it's just it does stuff i'm always tired i'm tired
the same right now like sunday was okay because i just went to bed kind of early i woke up really
early i was okay but this morning i mean i i slept i never do this during the week and i slept
all the way to i think it was k things my girlfriends alarm went off and i that has not happened
once since we've that we've been together and i was like so tired this morning i couldn't even
explain it i was so tired this morning i finally saw in the bedroom for the first time
oh weeks ago happy movie oh so good that really good but what a good movie and i'm fun too
yeah yeah yeah and no one gets out for romantic comedy um in the bedroom with uh
rissa tome i i did i used to get it confused with you can count on me
i thought they were both like i thought they were both these like feel good rom-com but no
it's not really also not feel good movie though you can count on me it's also kind of good
is it time we'll get to see that he's in the bedroom i nursing you can count me you can count
he's really good yeah did he do comedy maybe i know you can count on you that's returned to me
that's yeah that's fuck jesus christ you can count on me mark ruffalo and Laura Lenny and Matthew
brother okay that's good it's your boy who wrote it and directed it can uh
kind of vlogerman vlogman vlogman yeah uh i'm a little hot and cold and kind of fun
again he's a i like i love Manchester by the sea even though you i invited everyone over to watch
it and everyone's shit on it but um i thought it was i know no i know the main season we're like
right but i was rocking on it and i was like oh you guys i was going with the friend of the movies
and i was like yeah pick anything and they're like oh manchester by the sea and then i'm like
i have to go now because they told them pick it i didn't want to i hate when people i go all do
anything then you give them an option like i actually don't actually said actually that's the one
i don't want to see i saw that i saw that my wife kept keeps calling it manchester by the crack
right she was a fan it's to be fair though like i i thought it was like when i saw it sundance i was
like oh this is a fun this is like the type of movie that gives you a world that is sad
but also i don't want to leave it kind of like goodwill hunting which i think it actually feels
like a spiritual tie to it in some way yeah i get it yeah and you know and so i was like oh it'll
be fun to watch it with friends and i absolutely forgot about just the dour i was depressing
fuck he subplot don't say that we're gonna two hours of show up come on i'll say this too so i had
i had a reading in glossar masterpiece it's last year yeah i took a bus there and they drove
us through manchester by the sea get there and i'm looking around i'm like manchester's like
really nice like it's really doesn't look like it did in the movie looks very luxurious and they
get to glossar which i like glossarot too it's much more like hardscrabble just looks a lot more
working class and so i started asking people about movies that were filmed in glossar and perfect
stormous film there and then i'm like oh yeah i'm like a manchester by the sea was filmed near here
and they were like no they filmed it here because they wanted to place the look sadder because they
knew that real manchester by this looks like it's like this that's funny and so i'm like i
feel confident my criticism but yeah it was uh oh but so i was watching all the time i'm
sure i'm like oh i'm gonna rewatch uh uh little children and tar and man i keep i'm having to
do tar and like increments because i keep falling asleep every night keep trying i'm like i'm
watching yeah don't it's such a good movie though i'm so i fucking love tarred so i know and i'm
like and i'm like i need to do it in one sitting it's so i just not did it in one it was
it was originally did sunday afternoon at like 11 a.m. and i also i wasn't married and had the
child at the time so i might be able to wear easier for me these are said done we that's how we
watch originally two but man i keep playing it's a long movie for sure but i keep i keep on
like go back and restart it because it and also the way it's edited it kind of like it's it's
it feels like a it feels like a twilight dream or something like that yeah like it's not the movie
twilight no no not that at all uh but you know i i do man the audacity of that ending is fucking great
so good and you can read it from many different ways i think too um but uh i think i probably
read the right way which is miserable awful nightmare ending yeah especially the read that way but
that sounds like the worst thing possible uh so real quick though yeah your neck get rid of it
for for uh deal the same time you know i i think i would think it would just here's my thing i wish
i could be um not dead tired in the morning and it would be brighter later and i feel like if we
just stuck to the time eventually we would all get used to it it would just be brighter later
and we wouldn't be so dead tired in the morning that's there's got to be a way to do it i think
this is consistency stick stick with this i just go or when it changes again stick with that and go
i just need it to stay the same it drives me crazy yeah and i think i never get used to it i think
it could be fine with them changing it's not something i think i mean i only think about it when
it's actually the same exam right but yeah i think i'd be fine getting i wouldn't be like i wouldn't
be like yes like out there are many other um legislations i would prefer to get past you think
rovers is weighed yeah like revisiting that number two on the list obviously yeah i think they
like figure out this time thing i agree i don't know if it's gonna like it let it keep me up at night
but i but yeah i would be fine with them getting rid of it so i guess we're team uh
yet to mark on this yeah team mark i mean let's just say i'm team small victories
whatever it takes yeah it's not like crazy yeah well if you know if trump wants to save his legacy he can
show it to him to cherish the daylight savings time you know just do it another deal with the devil
oh my god well speaking of the devil uh Justin won't you take this sweet
these two tweets actually we love these so steven king has on a t-shirt with
our favorite little doggie and it says molly aka the thing of evil with her slave that would be me
it's pretty cool uh i would not like that you're right yeah that's cute she's cute duck it says
and then he falls it up with several people ask for a new picture of molly aka the thing of
evil here she is and she's just walking up to him smiling
happy and be love it is she older she looks really good for an old dog i feel like
he does look good for an old dog must be the jeans
thank you Jeff queen like whoever else was mutating dogs over
thank you to the lead queen you know that's why uh what like sammy always loves talking about
doodles because it's like the creator of the doodle was like oppinheimer it was just like i wish
would i'd never you know created this because it's like the worst dog in the world it's almost human
but uh i so yeah it's man i've i've got some recent photos of shylo and uh looking old like this too
and it's uh still good but he he has to wear these little uh um booties uh in the yeah
yeah thanks 12 and yeah he's five but yeah it's definitely i can't we've hank is 12
and all right yeah we're starting to think you might be older i don't know but um yeah you
it's uh yeah i think six tough dogs never live long enough even if they love to be like 19 they're
19 uh uh that's sweet um that's a tweet that's yeah i should i'm twitter can't do it anymore you know
if i got a damn dank caffery damn dank caffery yeah well um it seems like a hank is like the
sonder lock of of uh dogs doesn't like to share the age and it's a mystery i think he's more of like
the the clip he's sort of crippled of that relationship yeah pretty sure yeah um sweet dog
just yeah but you know if if you wanted to ask my opinion on it whether or not there's a god
i would say no uh because dog years are probably the worst thing uh counter maybe they get to go
having the quicker they do get to go to have here so maybe they are saved a little faster god's like
i want i want them all i want all the dogs do you think do you think if heaven does exist um oh
they're like all the all your favorite dogs just running around everywhere there'd be a lot of dogs
there'd be a lot of shit anymore it's gonna happen like god like enough they would have to not
and not you i there were some gets to know you exercise and like a theater thing we're doing once
and i think the question was oh if heaven does exist what would what would be the first thing you
want to hear when you walk in and my answer was welcome daniel here all your pets and uh and i
and i was this slow motion they run towards you no yeah like all of them like and and i
everyone in the room is like oh that's the best answer i'm like okay but the twist is all of a
sudden they start eating you alive you're now they all come out looking like koo jo just and
you're like oh there's my house to lock in it's like you're actually on the streets now um
yeah i mean what would you what would your answer be for that just um
congratulations you made it through and then they're like oh we said that to you it's all
i don't care about just feel like yeah i know it was difficult to stick with it but thanks for
sticking along as long as you possibly could and now you're really old and you made it that's what
i hope to hear i i hope they would say hey the you know you know you've been wishing your entire life
that they released in indian and jones movie in the nineties well guess what we made one
and i'd be like yeah this is worth it this is worth it even the guy instead of the devil's own
yeah exactly yeah but that's the trick i am in hell because they start playing it and it is the
devil's own like the devil's own indeed yeah and you say i need that movie film i need that movie
film i'd never seen that movie just i remember that trailer incessantly absolutely that money
tom if there was ever like a just like the most subpar movie ever but not awful it's the devil's
it's it's like the most okay movie always says the most okay movie of all time is the mask of
zero the most subpar movie of all time is devil's own the most like good movie of all time is the
martian yeah i think that's fair i think that is fair because i i was thinking about not not
worse not better than any of those are just like it's just good and that's it like martian for me
is like the ultimate hotel movie oh yeah and i'm hoping that at least project with whatever it's
called hell Mary can let me let me ask you football i've not seen the martian i've read the book
and i thought the book was cool narratively like plot wise it was neat i liked all the engineering
bullshit or whatever but his his voice was really knowing like he was again annoying snobby engineer
and when i tell that to people they're like what's the point but they ran an interview with him
and he was like oh you know i injected my own personality into which he's being a little bit of a smart
act as a minor this guy yeah yeah yeah i was like i don't know i so that's my problem with the
martian the movie works because Matt Damon is you know one of america's greatest children so
he's he's not like that like i can't i almost can't picture him playing that type of role
it's like watching will hunting the entire time yeah he's just all he does is just like oh you
you read vikus well i read vikus out here also and i'm the fucking planet alone and they're like
yes one ask you grab your drop grab your copy of vikus and he's like i don't have it i don't have it
i rewatch good will hunting recently yeah i think all the scenes the robin waves are brilliant
like i i think the performances are really good across the board but i'm like i have some of
this boston southea stuff feels a little like artificial to me i don't know just i'm in that i was
oh man i still that that is no i love i think we've already had this i can't
i will know but i found i found like a boston i found the boston thread and i love i love i do love
this i love the scenes the construction site love the ending there are things i like about it for
sure but i was i was i found like a boston subreddit and like similar to the movie well nothing they're
they're just saying like oh it's obvious that i mean what they're saying is like these guys are
really not where they probably they'd probably be worse like yes no they were saying like these
got like 90s working class male southeas yeah probably way more racist yeah like they're like
honestly you want to make it really you have to like be dropping and bombs yeah all the time like
that's just how and i was again maybe that's it because i don't think well we didn't see exactly
what's going on all the time with them yeah they just didn't show those parts
because i don't know i don't know it's scenes of them just being like minorities i think i
feel like maybe it's working class but that daemon's not i don't know point they're like together
they were in the same yeah i know they're all working class because yeah the whole thing is
that like he he could get out and that's what they get it they're like what the fuck are you doing
like yeah i there was just something about like they're the scenes of them all hanging out like
i don't know would these guys be that charming in real life i feel like they just like
i told you they they they certainly would and i'm picking it some picking it like if you want to
if you wanted the real version of that just go watch the town where everyone's an asshole and
i love it or go watch brotherhood on showtime which is yeah yeah i like my dad like loved
brotherhood yeah i was for a couple seasons and then the dvd for the cc3 wasn't available for
some reason so i never went back to it like i'm done with the old days that was and the listen
you watch the movie on dvd that's how i had to catch up for lost and madman was uh the the netflix
i was first day i'm both of those shows yeah well first day i would have been um but then again
i was in college for um well not for madman but well no i was for madman you for a beginning man
man you would yeah and so you know if you missed it oops especially for lost like i remember
being so fucking pissed when i missed the first episode for lost because i was so excited like i
was talking about it all the time and then my vc art didn't tape it and uh that's the right
weapon didn't work that's just anyway that's horrible uh well we've got four blues
to take here so uh capri want you read the first one all right the children Melissa Albert this
is an extraordinary book it's a page turner full of mystery but that's the least of it the
language is dusted with magic i haven't heard anything like it since red red redberry
what we published June 2nd my advice be first in line now this is interesting because we talked
on entertain weekly that pop goes the king episode that we or the pop of king episode that we
lasted and then we talked about blurbs right and the fact that king used to be i i think
just be a little bit more stingy with his blurbs and now with the epim social media you know
have a lot of them but this blur i don't know this book or this author i will say though this this
blurb actually sounds like very high praise it doesn't sound like he's just doing a friend to
solid or or just the like mean best since all right right anyway since Bradbury and he's a
very very fan too yeah i don't know her at her writing or other so she uh she is she actually went
to Columbia College uh Chicago oh hell yeah yeah yeah she was a managing editor at Barnes and Noble
when she decided to write her first novel a fairy tale noir for young adults hey i'll do a blurb
right now um milis albert's fairy tale novel is the best thing i've read um since uh i had to read
fairy tale by Stephen King and i have read the book so you can confidently say that probably
absolutely can confidently say it the book could literally end with every fucking kid being killed
by the main character that we're supposed to like and i'd probably still like it better than
fairy tale which may give me claustrophobia despite being in a world that he had just introduced
like i would never i'll still ever understand the idea of like hey we've got this whole world
that we that i kind of carved and teased out for you and i'm going to have you spend a hundred pages
in a fucking dimly lit cell like that was my last story i i picked up the torch and i and i did
said that same thing on our ranking episode recently so i checked it out i was with it the first
the first half when i was great and then that once they get to that prison man i'm like why is he
do you know i think i think i think that's when he's trying to make it more conan like but
no no just do your own thing right no it doesn't but you're better than robert howard you don't need to
do tonan anyway i mean beyond thunder dome is more entertaining than uh fairytale and i think
that i don't like movies beyond thunder dome um all right nine days ago Stephen King tweeted how many
calories and badlands ranch super food bites how many calories in how how many calories are in
badlands ranch super bites king let's get this a handle on this molly one g i mean yeah i mean
just the you know love loved her or you know whatever anyway um aka the thing of evil loves them
i'm sorry to say molly is getting to be an old thing of evil these days that's sad i don't like that
i don't know i don't know bedlands ran is is that does that now is that like a mash is that
like girl talk mashing up badlands and cat alike ranch but i think it's it's for spring students
dog you know the dogs love it it's badlands ranch
slurper the you know uh even the uh even the one like a dog for my song to wrestler uh loves
that's right either one like a dog like like the chow
ranch all right so i haven't had a chance to talk to you guys about this but man i
so i was at disney when streets of Minneapolis uh came out of the protest song i was pretty excited
because i was like oh man maybe it's like supposed to be like a sequel to streets of Philadelphia
you know in the same ray that that movie that that song is also somewhat of a protest song in
in some way um but man holy shit is it that that that's like one of his worst songs he's released
in like the last time yeah it's it's it's tough because i yeah it makes me like just like uh he
wrote like in a weekend i think i think i think it was just to put out there i don't treat it like
i was just the least single on an album or something uh here's the thing like
in the tradition of protest music like what he got through style protest music i i respect that it
was written in the moment that it's not even meant to be very poetic it's just like blunt yeah blunt
fighting back against it that said am i i could have put it i'm like it's not my light songs
yeah it's not gonna show up on my shuffle on on spot honestly i hate to say this i really hate to
say this i'm um i'm still debating whether to because he has that tour coming up and you know i
know i'm saying anytime of the full band i'm like i just should because it might be his last time
and he's they still bring it whatever but part of what i'm hesitant about it i know maybe i'm
making an asshole is like i hate trump as much as in the next guy of course but they're really
marketing like no this is like the is the american land or the the land of hoping dreams tour like
we're gonna push back those are like my my least favorite songs to hear is yeah and i
see your session shit i know he's gonna sermonize in between songs and once again i'm politically
aligned with him it's not that i disagree but i just i don't just don't know if i just don't
know if i want to hear about trump going well i'm definitely i got tickets i'm yeah yeah i'll probably
fucking i just think it'll still be i think i it'll still be a great show and also k says it's
seen him live yet you got to go oh yeah we're going and also i mean look i think about this all
of times like this really might be the last chance i have to see him and what if i don't and i'll
get widened i go yeah that's why that's literally the reasoning because i've seen him he's been
great and i've seen him but this yeah i just feel like i'll always try to go see bruise and
less i can yeah i should yeah i i would probably shall out eventually yeah because he was at
rigley field and yeah that was one of the last ones i've watched before we left and that was
like a couple weeks before he had to cancel the rest of the time because he was filled so and it was
you know and i and i went solely because i it wasn't gonna go because i was like i've seen him so
many times i don't need to spend this money and then it was like day of and i saw everyone was
like kyle was going all this other stuff and i was like i got to go and also because sammy has never
seen him and it do for the same reason like it is probably going to be one of the last times and
right um the thing that sucks though is that in a cafe i was texting you about this recently
it's that like he he played all the songs about 20 years ago i would have like loved to hear
which are a lot of the jammy or songs and a lot of the stuff off of you know the the wildness
and the history shuffle and stuff i've seen sure but i'm i will say i have become my dad
because he's going through the hits can i think i'm not even just the hits man i want to hear like
tell a tunnel of love songs and fucking oh you want to hear the more
album songs and yeah i just i that's not a human touch seriously i would love to hear
i love that song and i i mean i would really into skies play that like i there's a song of
the ghost of time joe it's track two i think called straight time uh he'll never play i love that
song and that's a good point because here's the thing the anthemic songs are never going to be as good
when we all saw him like back in the day or i just age wise and we're like that there's still
be great this will be wonderful you don't even have clearance anymore you have his yeah yeah
or something like that so it's Jake um but uh but he's i do feel like his more stripped down songs
actually is i like the i like the vocal quality he lends those now i loved i don't i've camera
you guys like love this album or not but um i loved western stars like i i actually i like that
well that is one of his best songs of the like the last 20 years which is um there goes my miracle
oh so good it's so good i love those songs and we he did that barbed performance
getting started covid he got a record which is great i would love to see like a full tour of that
um yeah that's how i know he does i know he does stuff from his quote-unquote solo years okay not
with the easterly band stuff i do still feel like especially now he really does focus more on albums
yeah in which easterly band is on yeah yes
you guys told me didn't you record a new easterly album that he shelved in favor of that that
soul covers album he did last time i think so i think yeah the most recent thing that came out
you should i think it loves listen to it but this is really great stuff on that it's the tracks too
that just came out you know i love that seven release albums but you know one of them well one of
them was it was one of them that record that was the one that's the the most recent one is literally
just songs he's recorded over like the last five ten years so i guess it would fall in that line
but i think it's like scatting songs you can pile them to kind of like a release because i like
letter to you a lot but then the soul what's the soul one and only the strong survivor something like
that um oh yes fine i guess but i don't think any of them were better than the original songs i'm
like man just give me give me some that e-street magic you take take me to the house of a thousand
guitars i think that's honestly why like that that first step show will always be my favorite because
magic was that's like my top five albums love it like i still think magic even though i like
western stars a lot i like wrecking ball a lot um i still think about some good stuff on there
yeah is it wrecking ball or is it um is it called wrecking ball yeah it's called wrecking ball
yeah it has wrecking ball so we took care of her own but even i so he's had a lot of good music
sense magic but man i i i think magic for me is that's the last one i love it yeah i don't think
he i don't think he's topped it set like and and before that what was his best one like
tom jude maybe i like magic better than tom jude i like devils and dust a lot point being
magic is good does he do anything off magic still maybe like long walk i don't think so man like we
got lucky enough because like i love gypsy biker and he'll know something close like
long walk home is that that that song played recently when i was driving your own worse than me
well that's good i mean i started like cheering up because it was just like it it hit me that i was
like oh my god next year will be 20 years since we're that show and that's crazy man that's
fucking nuts to me like somebody when you mentioned the 30 years for how long each show the other
night the other day i was like that like pummeled me i was like wait you're right it is almost 30
fucking years since that movie that is that's like we're farther away from that movie than that movie
was your way farther away than i am fucking nuts um well that that you know i hope you appreciate it
or springstein yeah i'm not sure me calories are in bad lanterns super food lights so um what about
what about the this next film recommendation uh just intake it because i know you're a huge fan
of this actor one of the best uh shelter the new jason stay the movie is terrific the perfect
antidote to trumps foolishness oh well i didn't see that part so i apologize uh here's a funny
thing aside from fast and furious movies the only jason stay of the movie i've seen it theaters
this is the most you will never get you i could give you 50 movies i could give you some
ography and it would take you i don't know if you would guess in 50 movies snatch well i
i don't really count that i feel like that's like a guy richy movie because you mean you
mean you like to stay them post actually on the poster i mean oh yeah okay so not like collateral
no not collateral as like cameo um as the transporter which is okay we go 50 movies to go okay i'll
tell you right now transporter two um i saw and i had them seen transporter but i saw transporter
two in theaters and that's that's it yeah i think i did see the first one in theaters and i was like
this guy's not for me yeah i like him as it's just normal supporting player like i like block
stock and he's playing brazilic snatch you loved him in fast ten yeah i i saw go some ours
in theaters he's in there oh yeah right yeah um i saw the mega which i thought was awful i think i
well okay you know what i we watched the mega two uh well we watched the last 40 minutes some
other people by been weekly like in a hotel speaking of hotel movies like a year ago or two years
ago maybe and it was so bad so we're like well let's watch the first hour um so we can say we
watched the whole thing and this was like a couple days ago so fucking and is so boring and bad
it's there's more there's more parkour on that movie than there are cool shark effects i know i
know i was not bored with whatever was going on in that thing it made me rethink because i
remember when that book was out in my librarian um i had the books good everyone's fun i mean the
book is certainly like hey let me befify jaws and you know try to be as smuddy as jaws too because
there's a lot of like oh my ex-wife's on that boat fuck her blah blah and like i remember my brother
it was it was just a strange recommendation for my librarian because i was only in like six
grades she's like i think you'll like this book whatever i was like i can't believe this is here
they're like like fucking on boats and stuff and it's just like it's it was awesome but i love the
sharpness of it all but i remember thinking it was like so like you know smart and intellectual and
i even follow a raven interviewed steve alton you know it's little for my stupid horror newsletter
and i really i just was so obsessed with that and they in they it was in development hell forever
like jenda bont was supposed to direct at one point and you know it was get it was definitely
going to be a smarter movie and i remember when it finally came out the film i was like yeah that
makes sense like of course they would eventually boil down to literally the dumbest fucking version
of this movie we could possibly get well no the dumbest possible version is the the mega to the
the trench in the two is bad you think that's bad uh there you go you can dance band yeah i um
just like when people i always i'm always concerned now i feel people might think that we think
that's funny the family guy thing i want people to know it's it's me being mean about family guy
it is it's not like i i i i i approve of that bit and you would have you know we've we've certainly
been in friends groups and on outings in which we've said it so many times that you know some people
will leave the group and go that is true and it's understandable and you think that's bad you think
anyway i i will say um i fucking love Ted the show i think it's fucking stupid but it's it's it's
just clever enough where i'm in and i like the cast and i just heard that like i guess universal
is not going to pay it anymore because it's like nine million dollars an episode or so oh my god
yeah yeah it's fucking they look at nine million subscribers i know they don't really have
them much and it was the first time i was like oh yeah peacock and then i realized i still
had been subscribing and i was like god damn it i was like i haven't used this in like a year um
but uh yeah that's bad um last one hmm i love the smell of napalm in the morning
r-i-p robbert of all you know what mine would have been my quilt you're breaking you buy it
you're breaking you buy it i i almost texted because i was like i it kind of made me sad but at
the same time i don't know i he's been he was ninety five this is this is what he going to have
would be like congratulations you made the ninety five years old you do seriously um
rest made me worry about Clint a little bit but i also think Clint took care of himself a little
bit more than deval who looked like he was ninety what like a year after days of thunder so um
we used to be for he consistently looked like he was seventy one for thirty years so i
you need to give him credit for that you know what do you think what what ages is he in the godfather
do you do you think i bet he's younger than us oh he's in his four years he was uh maybe younger than
me around your age because of seventy three right in the second one seventy five i think uh
seventy seventy two is the first one and the seventy four is the second one
he would have been forty one he'd been my age four i'm like yeah second one do you think um who
do you who do you think is more believable as um easily the the most whitest Jew ever um was it
robert deval in the godfather or ed louder in um school ties i don't know he's not Jewish in the godfather
he's i think he's i think he's Irish Jewish in it though i i'm pretty sure you're supposed to be
Jewish in it like i at least i that sort of say because i remember being like oh that's interesting
oh you're right his name is tom heganstein is that what is it really no it's not he's adopted in the
um let me see i'm definitely adopted by the family you know it's time hegan just i don't know
why i always thought i remember that i mean it's funny because like james cons actually Jewish so
it's like that might be what you're mixing up because sonny converted yeah oh does he look
somewhere in there he's like hey dad i got it you know i got to do it that's why he's Jewish
and that's why his dad killed him at the the cry we're killing it's like it's the end of me it's like
no i took care of this one um anyway we don't have to answer that question it was just a rhetorical one
oh listen i love robert deval he's a great actor and he made me do some of my favorite movies
i still have seen the great santini which i hear is excellent i listen to this William Goldman
that William Goldman a vision to the screen trade book he breaks down the basketball scene and
the great santini and i'm like i've got to see this movie yeah we still have to like do monologues from
in school i remember it's like like his monologues like the drill sergeant pick up the basketball
i i'm not even gonna lie but his performance in kicking and screaming with wolf feral is um
hilarious and just a underrated comedic actor i would say you know because i think he there's
something really charming about him but at the same time like he could all just he could
also just be filthy and i think i love that about him um and in kicking and screaming when he's up
against uh did uh in some of those dumb fucking yard scenes where they're making fun of the fact
that they both have young wives it still kills me every time it's just is that a good worth watching
that movie i've only seen the no-bomb back uh i i don't like the no-bomb back
i don't know i can't i can't i can't i can't thank god i thought your way log it movie i don't have
no it is i love no-bomb back but that was i've been trying to rewatch it to give it another chance
and it's changing now like in my feed for about a year and a half now and it's only just slowly
getting more just like the flashbacks i don't know like i get it a lot i've had a lot of stock
in a lot of those guys in in that in that movie but i also watching that movie get why none of
a lot of them didn't really make it.
And I'm like, yeah, you know, all right.
Like, I like to love Eric Stoltz.
Don't get it wrong.
Yeah, I like Eric Stoltz.
But I also get why he didn't make it.
Like, I understand why, all right,
there's a minimal appeal here when it comes to it.
Yeah, I think when it's like, oh, it's Eric Stoltz.
Yeah.
Like I'm never like, oh god, Eric Stoltz is in this, you know?
No, no, I'm still, it's like, oh, it's cool, right?
He's the best punch in roll.
Like, for me, like, you could make an argument
that he's the best part of his full fiction
if you really want to be a hot take there,
because he's incredible in that movie.
But him and, you know, what was, oh, god,
there was one movie I watched with him
where he's like a little no at all.
And it's, he's with his dad.
He's like, that's the thing about college or whatever.
And I was like, this is why he didn't work my fly
because you're fucking too serious.
Oh, some kind of wonderful.
Yes, that's the one.
Yeah, and it was fine.
It's a fine movie, but it was like, I was like, yeah,
this is why I have a problem with you
when taking the lead.
You're kind of a, you're just kind of a drag to hang out with.
But fun fact, he devolves in the handmaid's tale,
but not the show, the movie.
So.
Yeah, there was, it wasn't like a, was that TV movie
or was that an actual theatrical release?
No, let me look.
It was, like of all the movies he's done.
I know, I had the one you said,
hey, you know, he was in a movie called The Hamids, though?
Oh, wait, wait a second.
No, he, it really is based on the, the, the book.
Yeah, I knew that, but I didn't think was a theater.
Oh, I didn't know that.
I thought it was some random.
I didn't realize the book was that old.
Jesus Christ.
Yeah, she wrote it.
Oh, yeah, it's a long time ago.
Oh, interesting.
All right, well, I don't even know why I brought it up,
but you're just, you know, I just read Margaret Outwood's
The Blind Assassin, and that was five of the five.
Yeah.
Five Bright Red Pennywise Clown, those are the flight assassins.
Yeah, I got, I got to apologize to all the media writers
of the, the teens who would watch Handmaid's Tale
and be like, this is the future.
All right.
I get it.
Yeah, I get it.
I get it.
You know, I never thought it would get this bad,
and I'm pretty cynical.

All right, well, there's one movie that Robert DeVal
certainly wasn't in, and he could have been.
It was The Dead Zone.
But let's twist it and head into The Thread Zone.
Hey, how did you get these powers anyway?
I don't know.
So about 22 hours ago, which by my count is March 9th,
King Threaded, I submitted 10 puns to a pun writing contest.
I thought one was sure to win, but no pun in 10 did.
I love puns on ironically, so that's.
It's a good one.
Yeah, I like how he does the jokes.
Yeah, this is what it should be about.
Why do puns get a bad rap?
I don't know.
I don't think they're hard to do.
I'm more than happy to make people cringe when I give a really
quote-unquote bad pun.
I love it.
We'll take the next one.
Who put the bomb in the bomb, a bomb, a bomb?
I like to shake his hand.
All right.
OK, this is the guy who loves Mambo number six.
So this is true, I was born in the late 1940s.
That's fine.
Well, Caffer, I know you are a huge music fan.
I do know.
I'm very curious to know that these two, the two tweets here,
or the two threads, sorry.
Sorry.
Well, let me hear the one I first want.
It's the first one in the bottom.
And then it goes to the one.
Is he talking about the same thing here?
I think so.
I think so.
So he's all due to them.
Lots of love for SCOTS, Scott.
Little Debbie, little Debbie pointy boots.
I love Scott's southern culture on the skids.
That's a trio with a Brio.
I meant to catch them on tour.
I mean to catch them on tour, hoping for some dirt track day
and fried chicken and gasoline.
My dad's a pretty big fan of southern culture on the skids.
Like what I've heard, I know they're
loved by a dry by truckers here, one of my favorite bands.
That's what I was talking about, actually.
Their music is, it's almost like if dry by truckers
were a little kooky.
It's like, no, it is.
It's like dry by truckers meets like B-52s aesthetic.
Kind of interesting.
The southern culture on the skids.
Yeah.
Well, no, they have, this song I know by them,
they used to listen to his called King in the Mountain.
That is about a, this guy who is a corn farmer
and he's going bankrupt.
So he carves out a place in the cornfield
and puts like a porn shop there.
And they come like the King of Corn porn.
So they do very like CD, but funny, down-home stories like that.
Similar energy like the blasters, maybe who I also like.
I wouldn't call myself an expert on them by any means,
but the songs I know I like.
And a lot of bands I do like them.
Because he has SCOTS all in caps.
I immediately, because it was Twitter,
I thought he was an SCOT US.
Let's go to SCOTS, yeah.
Let's go there.
I thought that's what he was talking about.
I'm assuming, go to a little Debbie.
Because he down he probably was.
Yeah, probably.
Let me see.
I'm assuming little Debbie is like a band member or something.
Because I love little Debbie.
I like the little Debbie.
I love the snack cakes.
I love the snack cakes.
I think little Debbie, the oatmeal pies,
might be one of the best things ever
invented for a convenience store.
I still love them.
I love oatmeal stuff.
They're too easy to eat.
You know what I'm saying?
Like I could eat a whole.
Oh, and I did, you know, because I was certainly
a little lost.
Can you store the little Debbie's?
Yeah, you know, I was a big Debbie
when I was younger eating little Debbie's.
Yeah, big Mikey.
Yeah, Mikey.
I love little Debbie's.
Well, I'll read the next one, the next two,
because it's certainly an interesting two threads here.
You go ahead and take this one.
That's all yours.
Yeah, I figured.
So on February 16th, three days after the Friday 13th
and two days after Valentine's Day.
Happy Valentine's Day.
Yeah, you know, happy Valentine's Day to you all.
Did you guys have fun on Valentine's Day?
Yeah.
I don't know.
Do we do anything?
You know, I'm sure we did, but I don't think.
I think Susanna hers a little something.
Yeah.
Happy Valentine's Day.
I don't remember what I.
Oh, yeah.
What did I do?
Oh, I don't remember what I did.
No.
It's just kind of lost me.
I think I went to.
Oh, yeah.
We went to a ponio exhibit at the museum.
It was cute.
Except that like, wait, ponio, the nearly young.
No, not the blood.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
MP3 device.
God, it was killing me because I thought I forgot it.
It's Pano, but we just kept calling it ponio.
And I need to make that meme still, because that still
kills me.
We were also getting so worked up about it and like,
trashing it.
Yeah, I'm fucking ponio.
It's just a great movie.
It's a studio ghibli movie.
I love it.
But it was cute.
But the problem is that, you know, the Academy Museum
has this thing, has this knack for, you know,
really hyping up of like these exhibits.
But the exhibits are like one room.
And so you get in.
You're like, all right, what else?
And in this case, it was like two or three rooms.
But even with the jaws exhibit, I was like, this is awesome.
But also like, man, you really hype this for a whole year.
And it's like three, it's like three or four rooms.
And to be fair, it's pretty awesome.
But I guess I'm just so used to like what we have
at the field museum.
And in like, you know, the science, they had like a 007 exhibit.
And it was, I think it was in their fucking hour.
There's so much stuff in there.
So I remember the Bowie one.
Like that was fucking, like that was like a four-hour adventure.
Like I never, I didn't get to see that.
You didn't get to go.
It was so long we had like rush app,
because you could only be there for so long.
My worst place was within walking distance.
I had every opportunity to go.
I did not.
Well, it's all right.
He'll be around again.
But he'll be on tour today now.
Yeah, God.
All right, so February 16th, Stephen King threaded.
What food couldn't you eat as a kid
because it was so gross looking or smelling?
For me, it was rice.
It looked like the teaming maggots
in my aunt's sunken trash holder in her backyard.
Then he followed up with saying, in some book or other,
a black woman told her son while she was frying bacon,
that's the lice popping out of it.
Is that Stephen King book?
Because that's,
I don't think it's in his book, but it's not Steve, you know,
I think it's a figure out what book this is.
Is it sister Bessie and never went to her ever?
She's gonna have a fucking name is Jesus Christ.
Oh my God.
It's his fucking nuts.
And it's funny because I didn't finish the book,
but I got far enough for that.
Every time I'm on the in Tiana's bioadventure,
there's another singer that I don't know who's next to Tiana.
And I'm like, oh, maybe it's sister Bessie
and no one understands the joke
because no one's red never flinch
because it's less than a fucking year old.
And so in my head, I think it's this great joke
and no one is there to take, to appreciate it.
So if you don't, you know, I did finish it.
It was my least favorite Stephen King book.
I hopped off the episode.
You were on that episode, I think, because I hopped off.
No, I don't, was I on the whole episode?
No, I don't think it was on the episode.
I submitted my write-up for it, but don't they say like,
don't they keep saying sister power or something?
Like, probably.
So it's like that.
That's on, that checks out.
Yeah.
I'm not very bad.
It's, it's about, I got about 60% in,
I texted Randall, I said, you don't want me on this episode.
Like, I will.
Well, don't worry.
The rest was also destroyed it.
So it's just a bad book, you know?
I love Stephen King, but it's a bad book.
Well, that's, I can't even say that anyway.
It's fucking ridiculous.
Anyway, it's just, anyway, I can't say that anyway.
Without feeling.
It's just, it's all right.
Well, you're not, we're not.
And we're dead.
And by the way, I could not find, I tried to kind of search
for that.
That's the life's popping out of it.
But nothing we popped up.
What, what is a, also the word trash holder
is really disgusting.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What is actually, what are some foods that you would,
you would lump in here?
Us.
Dude to me is pickles.
Oh, pickles.
Oh, you hate pickles.
I mean, broccoli in a microwave is also one of the worst things
I've ever seen.
Oh, pickles.
Oh, pickles.
It was like a microwave is also one of the worst things
that I like it's like something.
What about on a plate though?
Like, if you're at, like, a steakhouse.
Like, you didn't know it was microwave.
Yeah.
Um, it feels like, oh, here's this thing you order with,
with covered with mustard, manning, and pickles.
I would be like, I could not eat, like,
for the first factor.
I would not be able to eat it.
But only I think like, on its own, if it's like next to a steak
or something.
And I like, I like Kate for this is broccoli.
He's pretty good.
Yeah.
That's not bad.
Hey, broccoli is good.
Yeah.
not a huge fan of a broccoli and I can I can I can do I it's pretty good. I seek out the broccoli. I I like
broccoli a lot. Chinese food. I've always got to get someone to be from broccoli. Yeah. I for me
it's stuffed peppers. I think stuffed peppers are fucking this thing. I think oh no. Those are great.
Those are what I hate the way they look. I think it looks like someone vomited into a pepper. It's
so good. That's so good. They look like I can't go. They seem good while hunting. I can't
I think for me. God I had something I can't remember what it is so I'm just gonna leave it but
as a kid it was a very picky eater and I remember thinking like any meat that wasn't like in
something that I didn't have to watch or look at would be so gross to me like I couldn't watch
my brother my I couldn't watch my dad grill like a steak you know really well yeah because I just
would always be weirded out by it and like especially with turkey like I would hate Thanksgiving
because I just would get so grossed out by what the turkey looked like and I don't like gravy
and so I was just like oh no and now I love I don't love gravy but I love turkey and stuff so
actually it's gravy. Gravy's the thing that gets me like I cannot fucking eat it. I get that
love I do like gravy but it does yeah. The thing is if it touches your food just a little bit and
you don't like gravy and you got to throw it out. I got a little gravy my bad lands ranch.
I did look good. I like that we did actually figure out. I'm wasting. This is a you're gonna like
your gravy. It's not lands ranch. It's heart heart healthy and we get a hungry heart. It makes
you feel nice inside. Do you think Bruce's dogs wear like denim jackets? I would hope so.
I hope yeah. I feel like he has. He's got to have dogs. If he doesn't have dogs and there's
no animals on his ranch because you know he lives on a ranch like that's got to be a guy. He's
a farm in a cold snack. Yeah. It's very rural. Do you have a forest? Do you think?
Yeah his daughter is a equestrian champion. Well you've heard of his other cold snack.
Fuck that's true. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. Cold.
Cuts or some of that? Yeah. Well, it's cold. Cold. You have some ham with your food.
It's a similar. Pretty like the gross plastic gloves to make the sandwich.
Hair. They're like shredded lettuce.y. McAdamie look cookies.
Oh, Bruce, I didn't know you'd stop in here.
You know, I love this place.
Yeah.
I was just stopping every once in a while.
Oh, if you want it easy.
He's like, I'm sorry.
Hold on.
He's like, oh, yeah, for the meal, if you like it, it's your own.
It's going to be 30 cents extra.
Oh, you know, oh, you actually, you're cutting the vegetables yourself.
Oh, yeah, we got to keep them filled for any of the other customers.
Oh, sorry.
If you don't want the Doritos, we got apples in the back.
Apple in the back.
And we got a barrel of apples.
You got to reach them and grab them yourself with your teeth.
And he probably, he probably has like the, what is it?
The beef jerky that you see at gas stations sometimes that you know,
it's just like dried out on the side of the road.
Like the guy, well, thanks, thanks for stopping by.
Okay.
Come on down.
You're getting real soon.
He's listening like sear.
God.
Just come on down and open all night.
It's like, it's like the old subway.
It's the old subway, but it's like yellow.
But then it's like the train drawings.
Yeah.
No, he's got it.
It's like, it's for two sand.
It's like the two hearts special or something like that.
Just ridiculous, just ridiculous.
Well, I want the Springsteen sandwich shop.
Hey, hey, stop by you.
Stop by two in three.
And guess what?
We're open all night.
I mean, that's it.
And he'll do a show.
And we'll prove it all night.
Oh, God.
All right.
We got ahead speaking of speaking of some shops and celebrities making some
shops.
Let's go to Hollywood King.
There's a town on the coast of Del Sol.
Always find my way there.
There's a place that calls to my soul.
Always find my way there.
People there are forever young, forever young.
And they toast to each other's love each and every night.
I'm not.
That wasn't a hyperbole in a joke because Steven Spielberg actually did have a
sub shop that he made years ago.
It was a themed restaurant.
It's called Spielberg Subs.
Spielberg Subs.
It's something as stupid as like sub, the sub, the sub or something like that.
I'm not joking.
Look it up.
It's the most goddy thing.
I can't believe he actually did it.
It's got to be a YouTube video on that somewhere.
There has to be somewhere.
Yeah.
She had a burger ass trying to be Spielbergers.
Oh, that's so much more sense.
Who is called?
Or iceberg lettuce.
It's Spielberg lettuce.
It's like balls of shredded lettuce.
Hi, everybody.
I'm Steven Spielberg.
It was called dive with an exclamation point.
That's what it was.
Yeah.
It was known by Katzenberg and Spielberg.
I wonder if this is where Kerb got their store.
Maybe there's plant Hollywood out there because it's the opening sounds kind of Kerb.
It's the restaurant had a nautical theme to it.
Let me ask you a question.
You said dive with exclamation point was the eye made into an exclamation point?
Or was the exclamation point?
No.
I think it was at the end.
And I guess it had a nautical theme to it, owing to Spielberg's love of undersea exploration.
Well, and he's never done a fucking movie with more jobs, I guess.
I get for jobs, but like undersea, like, you think like James Cameron.
Oh, that is true.
Like he does go in the water.
But, you know, I think it would be like James Cameron's thing, considering he did the abyss.
Yeah.
Actually, it was insane.
Like you actually walk through a portal.
It was like a yellow submarine embedded into this building.
Wow.
I mean, we used to like, I hate when people always say the place that people would break into.
It's, it's been closed down, but people still break into take pictures with it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's a bit short of all of like chain restaurants.
And we don't go in there open for five years.
Yeah.
So like the Meg three.
Yeah.
It should be.
They could have the megalodon in there.
Um, I wonder if there was like cool Spielberg merch that you can.
It's like, there is always, all his promos that didn't sell.
So you could get like a jacket for always.
You could always have.
Yeah.
On the subreddit thread, there's someone commented, I love the french fries there with the cheese sauce.
Ha ha.
And then someone else wrote someone or I don't think many dive bars are particularly successful.
So this makes sense that failed.
Oh my god.
Well, anyway, we were in hot with Stephen King's.
What's going on?
Is there anything going on with that new Stephen King and Peter Stratton?
There is.
So there, there is.
Yes.
And I don't think we talked about it on the last Hollywood King.
So I threw it in here.
Anyway, I took a risk because I believe this did drop right after a Hollywood King episode aired,
which is literally how it always is with the losers club.
It's, uh, we're always caught up and then my strobe himself goes and drops and announces the,
the novel officially, which we knew this was coming, but now we know what it is.
So, uh, King and Stratt, as we know, they're making talisman three.
It's not called talisman three.
It's, uh, called other worlds than these.
Now, why would that perk our ears up?
Because it's, they say in the dark tower.
Um, I, you know, I, I've heard so many endorsements of the talisman series from, um, especially
Caffrey and I believe, uh, uh, Mac.
Wait.
No, no, no, no.
I'm just joking.
I'm just saying no.
I was like, I think talisman is very literally why I skipped the book when it was, when you guys did it.
Like, I like black house lot though.
I do.
And that's what I'm dying to go to.
Um, but we're finally getting it.
The final entry in the horror fiction titans talisman trilogy.
And it's coming October six, which means that you heard it here.
We're going to have our first new book episode that will be literally released on the main feed as opposed to the exclusive for our
Patreon.
Oh, yeah.
Wow.
You're right.
It's, it's, you know, you've kind of made more work for us.
Now, Stephen King, because if you had made more books, we would still have this as an exclusive for Patreon.
But now we're going to have to do a book episode and a special episode for Patreon.
So who's the loser in this situation?
The loser's club.
The loser's club.
Yep.
So it's, uh, in true, true talisman fashion, it's 624 pages.
And, uh, it's based on a concept by Straub, who passed away, uh, in 2022.
It says that it will wrap up the fate of the worlds in King's beloved dark tower series.
Uh, King said, I wanted to go back to mid world, which is always the territories by another name.
Now, is that, that's, that's a revelation.
Or is it?
No, that's made true.
That's made true.
Recon.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The original town, the first edition of talisman talks about is that they still caught the territories.
I think in the later editions, but he reckoned a little bit of the world building to tie it all together.
Yeah.
Other worlds in the East follows Jack Sawyer, whom readers first met when he was 12 crossing America and, quote unquote,
the territories to save his mother's life and met again as an adult facing a child killer in the Crimson King among other evils.
And the new adventure, Jack must stop a rampaging gang of infected teenagers from America side.
And the forces of the mysterious gulla at the end of mid world before it destroys our world and all worlds.
Jack is older now.
His catette is fraying in his task, nearly impossible.
I'm, you know, I like the dark tower series, obviously, because I like, I love a lot of books.
I don't love all of the books, but I do love enough to say that, you know, I'm a dark tower fan.
This has finally got me more intrigued for the series admittedly.
And I, but knowing that, you know, you guys have both read these.
Does it feel like it's going to be shoehorned in?
Or do you think this is natural?
Now, it sounds natural to me.
I think, yeah, I think the talisman is open ended and expansive enough to, and also to because they have the Crimson King literally in the black house.
You know, I'm, yeah, I'm excited about this.
Actually, I, like I said, I don't have a ton of love for the first talisman.
But I like black house likes feel like they kind of figured it out as it went along.
There's also something touching about, like it doesn't sound like Straub actually wrote pages for this.
Yeah.
It's his idea.
I don't know.
I do think it shows a lot of character to like make him a co-author, right?
Like, I'd like the fact that he's recognizing, no, this is our legacy together.
There's something special about that.
And the fact comes to illustrations makes me excited.
So, yeah, I'm actually, I'm actually stoked for this one.
And if you, it's illustrations, the same person that did fairy tale.
Oh, which I do love illustrations.
The illustrations are awesome.
And that's probably the best part of the book.
Yeah.
I'm, um, listen, I'm maybe I always, I'm always, honestly, I'm always excited for a new king book no matter what.
But I will say this one definitely, you know, perk me up a little bit.
And look, you know, we know like the condition that Jack is in at the end of black house.
We know, obviously, about Peter Straub.
We know where king is in his life right now.
Yeah.
I think this, this has got, and I don't want to over inflate it or really start assigning what I think it could be.
And if it's not that, then it's a failure.
But I wouldn't be surprised if this really does deal with mortality in a way.
And, uh, yeah, I'm very, I'm really looking forward to this.
Yeah, very much so.
I love the dark tower too.
So, um, I'll be curious to see how much he does go.
If he leans even further into the dark tower mythos, then he does in black house, I'll be surprised.
That's, um, I'm interested is the fact that they are actually pitching it as like this is a closure for that series is, is, is, it's exciting for me because I think, you know, I've, there have been a lot of books released in our 10 years, the loser club that.
I've, you know, I've loved and really been excited to have, but like, you know, I don't feel as if there's ever been a book that was released with the exception of you like a darker for me that felt like.
I was reading kind of old school king in a way like like almost like, you know, what it would have been like to pick up the books in the 90s and, and certainly even in the teens and when you, you know, you get like 1122 or, you know, under the dome, etc.
It didn't feel like there are a lot of events that felt like a lot of books that he was kind of, you know, at least trying his hand at with different sort of genre.
The squatting and stuff, this feels like the event that I think we've been waiting for for a while and that excites me and it feels like almost like, you know, when, when needful things came out or something like that, like, oh, this isn't, this is something that's going to be big here like there's going to be, you know, or like when they finished the dark hour obviously in the in the arts.
And so that to me is, I think it excites me for an event for us because it's like where we just finished everything and now we get to go into this, which seemingly does feel sort of like a book and although, you know, he's already said that he's going to do another holiday book.
But to me, I don't know, I've just gotten that idea lately that like, he just feels there's like a funeral sort of like tone to like a lot of the things he talks about, like, even with just the Molly tweet and like there he his lack of, you know, he, I mean, I felt like he had more recommendations to, and there was more engagement with a lot of certain things in pop culture and I do feel like there's, he's maybe spiritually kind of pulled back, especially in the way.
And I don't think he's like in that sort of mindset just knock out books as he used to.
Well, I mean, look at him, it was the last time he, I mean, I guess he's not going to have a book, I guess he did have a book in 2025, which I'm trying to forget.
I know, I know, yeah.
I just feel like he's been pumping out like at least, and I know this isn't the case, but just feels like if, if not, two books every year, then two books, yeah, every other year feels right to books in the year I should say.
But yeah, I wonder if we're going to still get that. I mean, we'll talk about some news later, but how many solo books are you going to be putting out going forward and how long will we have to wait as opposed to the kind of constant stream of output, you know.
It feels like this is like a perfect opportunity for him to do that sort of book end that we always talk about on this.
Well, the cool thing about this too is it's not like I know exactly what to expect even with the description because obviously the talisman is a true journey through the country basically.
Yeah.
Because it takes place basically one town. It's not it's not so I'm curious to see if he's going to bounce that out if he's going to lean once again in one direction or the other.
Well, you know, almost 700 pages, I think he'll get his room for this.
I plan on knocking out.
I plan on revisiting the talisman and black house in the summer just to really gear up and get ready for this one.
Yeah, I got I got to I got to start it once I finish Indiana Jones in the philosopher stuff.
Well, that's obviously the it's a priority.
Oh, and also the modern retelling of I know you did last summer, which is just absolutely just ridiculous.
So I can't believe that yeah, it's so stupid and I can't find the original one either and I just I would have to get on eBay and it they always take a week or two.
So I was just like nevermind. I'll just finish this.
But it's really cool because you know Helen shivers has a web series.
Oh, oh my god, yeah, it's ridiculous.
And they still don't solve the problem that all of the the issues with the, you know, the conflicts they have would be resolved with a smartphone.
And so they are in the era of that, but they don't acknowledge that.
So it makes a lot of sense.
You know, speaking of, you know, a timeless classic that need not be updated.
Stand by me, aka the body, it's returning to theaters in March for its 40th anniversary.
I think it's less exciting for us because they've had it included in pretty much every one of our festival festivals or events that we do at the music box.
But it's still an event on the out then the last and it's 40 years.
We celebrated the 35th anniversary five years ago, which is stunning that five years have gone by.
And also part of the celebration is a narration of the audio book of the body by Will Wheaton, which if you recall, and you know your losers club history.
We spoke to Will Wheaton in the winter of 2017. Great time for me.
And I was talking to him about coming him coming back from narrating books and we did talk about him doing the body and how cool that would be.
I'm not going to say that it was definitely the loser's club idea that spawn this, but I'm also just not going to deny it.
So I'm March 21.
Did you see, yeah, I'm sorry.
I want to talk over via March 24th.
Will Wheaton is narrating a new audiobook of the body, which is cool.
Yeah, the cool thing is if you go on Amazon and you get it, you also get him narrating his tweet when he went after Larry David from choking Elmo on this day show.
Yeah, that was, that was a, that's, I, it was, that's to be great to hear because I only read it. I'm only imagined the insanity.
Yeah, so I'll be able to do we will hear him recite how he was feeling when he was condemning and damning Larry David to help for.
I'm not joking, Elmo on the day show.
I thought they'll be fun to listen to.
I couldn't stand by that tweet if you catch my drift here.
And I certainly, you know, I don't want to sound like keeper Sutherland.
At the end of stand by me, but I'm keeping on watching you.
Dead.
I'm just joking.
Would you go see this in theaters again?
March 27th.
I don't think so.
Well, it's my favorite king movie, but yeah, I've seen it in theaters.
I don't know if I'm going to get anything by seeing it.
It's funny.
I was thinking about this a lot, lady, because, you know, as you guys know, like we used to go to the music box all the time and catch all these rep screenings, right?
But honestly, and they still have great rep screenings there.
But I've lived here for so long.
It's inevitable, right?
But I feel like so many of those rep movies I've seen already in the big screen, like I've gone back and been able to see them.
Yeah, it's something like this.
I'm just not as like ready to jump out and go and go see it in theaters, which is funny.
I just feel like too.
But we're also very spoiled.
We've lived in big cities.
Yeah.
So if you have a chance to go see this on the big screen, I highly advise you do it.
You know what I mean?
It's also, it's not rare that go to movies.
We get to go a decent amount.
But the thing, right?
Like one of us is watch boon.
Yeah.
If you go out, it's have a baby.
I have to watch boon or.
You can't cut it.
There's a lot of boon.
Is there an excuse you're going to go out?
No.
I see a lot, but I feel like there's always so much new stuff that I don't get to see.
So it's rare these days that I go to see an older movie in theaters.
Unless it's at like a festival or something that we're hosting.
That is literally Sammy's excuse.
And in largely because here you have to drive far to go.
I used to just walk around the corner and go to the music box.
But I've easily sunk like $1,500 into tickets I didn't use.
Because I, you know, they sell out within seconds here.
And, um, and then the day comes around and I go, wait, it's 11 a.m.
So I really want to drive an hour and a half to get to this theater.
Okay.
Now, I'm not going to do it.
Um, having said that the tour that stand by me is on right now.
They have a tour too that isn't acknowledged here.
But, um, Will Wheaton and Corey Feldman and Jerry O'Connell are all on tour with the movie and you catch it there.
They had something earlier this year in Los Angeles or Anaheim.
But, uh, they are actually going to have one in Chicago.
And it's the weekend that I was supposed to go for the whole city.
I don't, I'm still going to try to make it.
But I just don't think it's going to happen now.
But, um, it, it's kind of a perfect weekend because it's like the wall flowers on Thursday.
Her whole city on Saturday and they're doing that screening with all three of them there at the Chicago theater.
Uh, you know, fun, fun little spirit.
To see Corey Feldman.
I know, I know.
God.
I'd much rather see an AI replica of River Phoenix at this point.
But, um, you know, um, speaking of music box, by the way, I just want to use this moment to say, um, thanks Kyle Cooper for finally booking escape from Alcatraz.
My favorite Clint Eastwood movie that I was begging you to run for, uh, I don't know for last four or five three or four years.
And now it's airing in April.
And I'm, there's no fucking way I could possibly get there.
So, um, I hope everyone enjoys it.
See, that's an example of see I've not seen that on the screen.
So I will, I will probably be checking that one.
Very jealous.
And I'm very upset.
And, um, you know, there's a couple of them that have seen in recent year.
And I'm like, I lived there for 20 years.
And I didn't see this.
And, um, so now they're finally doing it.
So, uh, that's free plug for, for the music box, which is still the place I want to end up if there is a heaven.
And like at the ending.
Yeah.
I remember I made a list on letterbox.
Um, folks, you can feel free to go check it out right now.
And it's literally every movie I've seen at the music box.
And there's so many.
It's just only fond memories of the music box.
I can't believe you can remember every one of them.
Yeah.
Well, I've been tracking them since I've been, I mean, listen, I was, listen, I'm an old head letterbox.
I've been on the letterbox for 12 years.
All right.
I'm not one of these.
Oh, what's your favorite for?
Okay.
I mean, I've been in the letterbox before letterbox, though.
I know.
It was called letterbox with no D.
Much like Snoop Dogg with no, with only one G.
But, um, yeah, I've got them all in there.
It's unreal.
Yeah.
I was thinking about like, what was my favorites moment at the music box?
And I, because I have so many of them, but man, like I, I still get so excited.
Like when I think about, there's like a couple of them that come to mind was like, one is the, the Raiders trilogy.
After the Christmas that we went to that was just one of the best days.
And then the other one was when, um, I think it was Fleeger, Caffrey and I were to go see a double feature of Swamp Thing in a Nightmare at Elm Street.
Oh, yeah.
And it's still the funniest anecdote that we've stretched out forever.
I was just talking the whole time, right?
Yeah.
And I talked to other people at the con recently, because he was there.
They remember that.
And they all say they were laughing because he's like, oh my god.
He mentioned, you know, Italy and Roman.
The line I always think of.
It's so funny.
Because he said, he talks about, I was staying in this hotel suite of a former Mafioso.
Yeah.
And then he, but then he says, I was sitting there wrapped in sheets of linen.
Now, maybe I'm wrong, but that linen is not automatically.
Was that lyric of something?
It was a lyric for wrap and sheets of linen.
It's one of the things where if you say it, you don't know.
It's like a billion.
You've heard a million times song, like, you know, I guess it was just funny.
Because he wasn't saying, like, oh, I was wrapped in linen woven from the silk of a caterpillar.
It was just like linen.
Like, I would know there's something.
It didn't sound like that fancy.
And he was saying it like it was so, but he was very like likable too.
He was probably saying it like a hostel.
Oh, it's it's from Lamey down the sheets of linen from tiny dancer.
Oh, nice.
I bet he was probably quoting that.
Yeah.
That was a really good night.
The first, I think it was still called the music box massacre.
I went to was a special one.
Just the program is great.
I didn't really know what to expect.
I remember the lights went down.
They brought like this.
They had someone like on stills, like dresses some monster, like bring them down the aisle.
That was good.
I also love to see anything there Christmas time with the trees on the side.
Like see why Christmas.
I thought that was so good.
Christmas tree.
Yeah.
Were you guys with me when I saw spring breakers?
I feel like you were.
Yes.
We were all there.
In the movie crash for a second.
I remember that.
Yeah.
It was in a smaller theater.
I think we're all coming from a barbecue.
We were.
Memorial day.
Yeah.
And Paul Martinez was with us and he was super drunk.
I remember he just kept leaning over and going spang.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I remember.
I think we saw that with Cassandra.
And I think we saw that with.
I think Clancy was there.
And something happened with his candy.
And.
Oh, that was different.
No, that was a different movie.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He kept.
Is that friend, Sean Clancy?
Everyone who.
Didn't he?
He like ripped open a bag of lights.
He's back.
And when I really.
The aisle.
Because it's like on.
It's on an angle.
So they just rolled all of those hundreds of pieces of pieces.
Roll down the aisle.
And didn't he say like, fuck really loud?
And then throughout the rest of the movie.
I wasn't even there for that.
I know that story.
That's how great that story is.
So I think he kept.
He kept leaning over to like different people.
And like very sincerely being like.
Man, I can't believe I dropped my recess.
It's like I.
That is literally it.
And I think you should leave scratch or something like that.
You know, sure.
What did you see?
It was like.
He's a guy.
I can't.
Yeah.
You would go.
He'll just hear the rolling down the aisle.
He's the whole time.
I was like, I can't believe I did that.
What a.
I think.
I don't think any of us.
Any of us were here for this.
Because he was by himself.
But it didn't.
Our friend Chris Waldron seen movie there.
And he fell asleep.
And I woke up the next morning.
The road warrior.
Yeah.
And he said, and I was going to go.
But we don't.
We once again.
We had a party drinking.
I was like, I'm not tired.
I can't make it.
I'm not.
I'm not going to make it.
So he went to the music box.
He was in the back row.
It was a midnight screening of road warrior.
Of course, he passed out.
And it's a big theater.
It's a dark theater.
Yeah.
It was a box, right?
And so they just didn't see him.
And they closed the theater.
He woke up in the middle of the night.
Nobody's there.
There was a hundred-year-old.
A hundred-year-old theater.
And he got.
He just went out the.
He went out the emergency exit.
And he went out the emergency exit.
But they wanted to go off, which is good.
I guess.
Yeah.
I think I would have just stayed and just slept.
I'm not.
It's just someone got there.
Especially if it was a winner.
Like, there's no way I would.
I'd go leave.
There you go.
I did.
I remember once when.
Sammy was such a trooper.
Because we, you know,
Kaffir, you're in town.
But Prince of Darkness was playing.
And I just had to check the box.
I had to know that I.
Because I've seen almost every carpenter movie in theaters.
And I was like,
I was the one.
And no one wanted to go.
And I was like, let's just go.
It's fine.
And I ended up going.
But then Sammy also had this like toothache thing that was
happening.
So she was fucking miserable.
And I was just like,
it's Prince of Darkness.
It'll be fun.
And then I about 20 minutes in,
I go, oh, yeah.
I like the score and not the movie.
And.
And I still stayed.
And I kept going.
And she was like, why are we staying?
You know, we're like movie.
And I was just like, we got to stay.
But that was like the last time I saw you, Kaffir, for like years.
Because COVID happened like.
Oh, right, right, right.
Yeah.
Because that would have been.
I was back from Austin.
I remember.
Yeah.
Because we went to the daily.
Well, we're really on the memory, memory lane here.
Yeah.
Jesus.
Well, yeah.
Oh, the daily is still great.
You know, I do miss a lot there.
And I do love it here.
But at the same time.
I don't know.
There's a what if.
That Chicago is always going to be my favorite.
I love in New York, too.
And we're going to be in New York for the foreseeable future.
But yeah, Chicago.
I mean, it's, it's where we all.
We all spend our 20s and 30s there, too.
I know.
It's like it's just.
It's going to.
Being your bones in a way that no other city will.
I love.
Yeah.
I'm excited to go back for.
Yeah.
It's funny.
Because you know, in the way of time, you're always just like.
I know.
But then even yesterday, I was like, oh, yeah.
This is the best place.
Like summer.
Really is.
Summer Chicago is like.
Well, it's summer yet.
But it's the best.
Yeah.
It's like I.
It's weird because I went to this like alternate version.
Uh, where.
Because there are a lot of the bars I go to are very Chicago.
Let.
Like they feel a lot.
Like the Chicago bars.
Like the one.
That just opened your me.
That's that this venue looks like feels like a shoe buzz or something like that.
And so it's.
It's nice.
But then.
And we also have a governor that's very similar to your governor.
And so it's.
And that's.
That way it's been nice this time.
But also it's like.
It's also really fucking expensive here.
And I didn't spend anything in Chicago.
And so I'm like, fuck.
I wish.
Yeah, Chicago.
It's like.
Even when it was at most expensive, I feel like it was still affordable.
That.
It was fine the other night.
Uh, was just in a play that closed.
And so me and another friend of her saw it.
We went out afterwards.
And we kept.
We kept trying to find a good bar to go.
And we couldn't.
It was all like shitty blood.
It's hard in New York.
Trash.
Yeah.
Yeah.
New York has plenty of obviously amazing opportunities.
Great places to go.
You have to know where to find them.
Right.
So every bar we kept going to is like one.
One was like, weirdly selling selling like designer cake slices at the front.
Just like we're shit like that.
Yeah.
It's always weird.
Sounds pretty.
I mean, I like that.
That's pretty good.
But and they were like, Oh, Dan, just find it.
But like just look around.
Find it.
You find a bar and I'm like, All right.
And so I just looked up a place and it was called the canal street bar.
And I was like, I don't know.
That sounds good.
Let's go look at that.
And we go in and I'm like, Oh, this reminds me of Chicago bar.
And I look and they had like a state street subway line.
Like sign there.
And then there's a bears flag.
And I'm like, Oh, this is a fucking Chicago bar.
And it not only was founded by Chicago people, just like you were saying felt like a Chicago bar.
And it was awesome.
And the drinks were actually pretty cheap.
And yeah, it was great.
Well, one of the drink is Michael Jordan.
Oh, my God.
And he's wearing a Michael Jordan steakhouse.
You know, hey, I'm on my regular around here.

Yeah, no, I'll say this right now.
Like I certainly jumped the gun and saw that my dream house was available to rent and didn't really think beyond that.
So I was literally like a John Hammond in Jurassic Park.
And and let's say, look, I still don't regret it for the most part.
But man, you really don't realize what you have until you until you lose it.
And being across the street for my favorite bar and my favorite theater.
And literally surrounded by best friends.
It was.
It's it's it's stuff you can't replace and rare Friday for sure, but you know, and in some ways.
I sit sometimes in morning, I say, this is how the world ends, which is our next story that we're going to be talking about.
So the end times, which we've talked about on this on this pod in the past, but for those of you who maybe didn't catch that Hollywood king.
That I don't even remember.
It's a it's a new series that King is working on with Benjamin Percy.
And he's really only.
He's tertiary to this.
So I, you know, he basically is, you know, it's like almost like an influence per se.
So this is really more of like a.
It's like when I'm, you know, a big filmmaker.
A big indie filmmaker helps a college.
You know, filmmaker that you've never heard of.
And you're like, oh, I'll check out whatever Joe Swanberg's doing with.
I can't remember his name.
And that's why this is this story is.
And I'm sure they wouldn't like me presenting it that way, but I'm going to.
So he's doing this.
This is kind of very similar to the Green Mile and this is this serialized sort of thing that's happening throughout this year.
And here's the log line.
As the world struggles to begin again years after a pandemic wipes out most of the population.
Mary pool finds meaning as a writer and editor when she revives an old printing press and begins publishing a small town newspaper.
But Mary soon discovers there are other more sinister agendas at work as well.
Don't miss this tale of quirky humor, startling fear, deep love, faith in humanity, and ultimately hope.
It's a special contribution by Claudia and as Bachman, not only in the form of the narrative, but add to the lore surrounding Claudia and her late husband, Richard Bachman, Stephen King's long time.
So that's the hook for us.
You know, we we want to know.
I mean, that that's interesting in some some ways.
Claudia and as Bachman wrote, trolley the chuchy, right?
Yeah.
Right in them.
Yeah.
No, I think that was.
I think of us another female.
Oh, was it really?
Claudia and as Bachman did something.
It sounds so familiar to me.
Let me see that she knew.
There was a no, there's a barrel something barrel barrel Evans.
Oh, okay.
So in the dark tower.
Yes.
That's the fictional wife that that's where it's established.
Okay.
Okay.
So Clara in in the Keystone world, she did that's man, good memory.
Claudia wrote Charlie the Chucho.
Oh, okay.
I knew that that was.
In New York.
In New York.
Barrel Evans does when it's in the when it's in the real world at New
York City with which is the imagination of the might or.
God, it's the name of the store.
I know that.
I know you're talking about, yeah, I'm feeling that.
But fared.
Yeah.
So anyway, if you don't want to like go and seek out all the monthly
issues because I know that's a pain in the ass.
The book will be released in early 2027.
If that's going to be in a hardcover,
and I'll collect all the 12 issues.
So maybe we'll cover it. I don't know. I think so. Yeah. I think he's a little more involved in this. There was a longer article about this. I read I think he's this is this is more.
I mean, I want to sign once again something with something else, but I think he's a little more involved in this than we think he is.
Well, it made me think about what that log line was that Straub wrote for talisman three. Because I've been thinking like worst case scenario, it's like what Straub being like, hey, whenever you're going to do talisman three.
And then best case scenario, it's probably like, hey, if we're going to do talisman three, we should probably have Jack go to mid world.
Like, I can't imagine there's, I mean, maybe they're wrong. Maybe we'll find out when the book comes out, but it does make me wonder like, how much does he need to get?
There was a lot of notes that they were going with back and forth and a real good idea.
Okay. Okay. So I think that a lot of I think he's going to maybe try to emulate some other writing too.
But we'll have to wait and see how 26. It's true.
You know, because he has so many collaborators. And so it's, you know, even with Richard Chase, Mara, I've always wondered like, how and how much did he write?
Because you, I mean, I know you spoke to him in capray. Like, does it?
Yeah, man. I wish I could remember. I know Flieger and I asked him about that.
I mean, I'll just say if you read that trilogy.
Yeah.
Magic Feather is for me far and away below the first and third one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I like magic.
Yeah.
I like Magic Feather. Well, I read that chase in the book, a man book, which I also like, but she has more style to me.
Seems like a lot more Spartan than King. It's much more straightforward.
It's not very literary. I don't mean that as a knock, but and I think even into Wendy's trilogy, you can find spots where it's like that.
I think it was, I don't want me on this. I mean, go back to the episode if people want to know.
But I, from what I remember, they would, they would just kind of like pass ideas back and forth and like,
get to kind of a flow state. Like you take a page, I'll take a page kind of thing.
I might be completely wrong about that, but from what I remember, that's what he told us.
Yeah. I mean, it just, King feels to me like the person, like, how kind of I was when I'd collaborate in like school projects and be like,
I'd be like, you guys don't worry about it. I got it.
Um, like, I don't want to, I don't have to wait. I'll do it all. Yeah.
I'll wait around for you guys. So I do wonder if there's, or he could also be the opposite where it's like, I'll, I'll do a punch in and do an intro.
And, uh, and go for it. But yeah, I, that excites me that he's more, you know, that he's more involved.
Um, speaking of punching in, the next story was one that our, our pals over at a club, Stephen King broke, which is that,
John Mellon camp, he's going to have a songbook got this year. It's called 50 years and words and music. Or as he would say, 50 years and more music.
He's a smoker like me. And I, I look at him and I go, I got a quit soon.
Um, but King wrote a forward for it. And, uh, as we mentioned at the top, he did do the musical Ghost Brothers of Darkland County.
So when this came out, and I know Randall's been Jones and for us to cover it. And I am too.
Uh, I was like, here's our entry. So this comes out in the end of September.
So right before we get to Talisman 3, we'll, uh, looks like we're going to be going to Darkland County.
So, um, I, I take a calfries definitely a champion at the bit for it considering he said he didn't like the musical.
Yeah. Who I tried, man, I'm, I'm just, I'm not a Melon camp guy at all. It's, it's, I like some of this, I've never gotten like the album.
Like some of the singles, I guess, you know, but, you know, I was one of those guys like, I get it, you know, yeah.
These were those guys like, I probably know 20 songs by him and don't like any of them. You know, it's like small town. I don't like it.
I don't like his cover of wild night. I don't like the cover while I'm more than the Washington.
I came out and I was like eight or nine. I remember they, they played the video incessantly.
The video is like this woman driving a taxi cab.
It's with Michelle in the chill. Yeah, Michelle. Yeah. And she gets on it. And like, I remember just, I, I, I took that slide.
Like before you know it cringes or like you're when you're like eight or nine, like, look, I feel uncomfortable watching this.
Well, it's like it just feel like it's, it's convertible. It's, it's the joke. I make it every Hollywood, Hollywood, the Hollywood King episode.
It's convertible, you know, 40 something bad. No, totally. It would know what it was. And it's fine because I actually do have an affinity for, but I don't know.
Now, now what I want to do, yeah, you see like Hornby and yeah, I love love horns. He's like kind of, I don't know.
I never got the idea of horns who is trying to be cool and melanchamp in that video where he's got sunglasses.
He thinks he thinks the baseline is so like, it's so goofy. And I remember him. I remember just watching.
Like, these guys are trying to be cool, but they're not cool. I know. It's strange because it's like, like Sammy made an observation yesterday when we were driving.
And she was like, man, skateboarders always look like they're just like ready to fight you. And that's true.
And I was like, I'm gonna have a whole skateboarders. Yeah, I saw me skateboard. I was like, well, they met Justin.
I probably would be as gentle as gentle. The soul as I am, um, you know, having skateboard and hang out.
They're not. They're not really nice. They're not really nice. Skateboards are not nice. Like they're not. No, but they're also shit.
Yeah, they beat their chest a lot. And I mean, most of them, but we were talking about like, you know, she was like, well, they're probably always ready because they're like adrenalized because they're getting hit all the time by falling on their fucking boards. And I was like, yeah, that's true.
Um, but I don't know. I feel like melon camp is kind of a bit like that, but also at the same time looks like he's been living in a sewer for 30 years.
So like, I, you know, I can't say he's not.
27. Pennywise yourself. I mean, maybe he is Pennywise. If you look at him, let me see how old he was.
He was on Bill Maher a few weeks ago. And I had to turn. I had to fast forward it to the panel because I just, I was, it was one of the one-on-ones.
And I was just was like, I can't do this. I, it's like this is I, he is so fucking dead outside. He's very, he's very smug to when he talks like very smug.
Randall's pushing for an interview. So this is definitely going to be our way to get into it. But maybe, hey, maybe we'll interview him.
Listen, I know we've had a lot of great people in this podcast. I just don't see John melanchamp's publicist team saying, John, you're going to go in the loser's club podcast.
I don't know. So feel free. Although you guys, I, I, I have to brought this up before. So apologies if I'm repeating myself. Did you ever see when he was like a guest on Cisco and Ebert back in the 90s?
Melanchamp. Oh my God, dude. We were, why was he using Chicago? I remember we were just watching old reruns of, of Cisco and Ebert the movies, whatever it was called. And just John melanchamp's, I think John melanchamp directed a couple movies and acted in them.
And so, yeah, there's an episode where Ebert just has a few episodes. Ebert has moments as guests when Cisco can't be there. And it's so funny. Cause like, you know, Ebert will do his Ebert thing and give like a pretty articulate review and criticize the movie. And they'll just like pan over to Melanchamp. And he's kind of short.
He's like, you know, the relic Peter Himes.
It's fun. No, when they cut to him, he just likes everything. And he's just, and he's just like, he's like, oh, I know, I thought was pretty good in the like, I don't know. He looks kind of like the kid a little bit.
He's like, a little guy with like a big pompadour. Yeah, he's short. Yeah, he's, he's short. And so, yeah, I don't know. I, you know, I feel like I'm really hating on him for no real good reason.
Well, I guess a news here for you.
In 1992, he directed a movie called Falling From Grace in which he adapted from Larry McMurchery.
Oh, I do like Larry McMurchery. I think here's the rubble. Here's the rubble. Not even enough reviews for a star rating alert box.
Wow. Wow. That's impressive. I remember.
It does star, though. Sorry.
Could you off down?
I know. The great Claude Acans, who of course was in the elephant plan of the H's Aldo.
So there you go.
I, I, um, yeah. No, I remember Ebert is actually saying.
Look at it.
I remember Ebert saying like, like, oh, and John, you're a filmmaker yourself.
Yeah. You know, I'm on my part time. I'm a part timer.
Well, who's more of a filmmaker? John Mullencamp or Roger Ebert? Because Roger Ebert also had a movie too.
Yeah. Good. I guess this was actually. Sorry. This was Ebert and Roper. So this has been him.
This was actually so we must have been seeing it in real time. That makes sense. We live in Chicago.
But yeah, we're here. I'll just send you the proper not a great guy. I will say, uh, one of my, one of my okay. Here we go.
Here's one of my, we are my best memories as a film critic was, uh,
I, I signed up to do Flash a genius because I wanted us to interview Greg Keneer, which has a king connection because he played, uh,
the very dumb, Glenn Bateman, um, probably older than Ray Walson, which is, yeah, that's actually probably true.
Uh, but, you know, I just, I assume no one was going to take it anyway.
So I wasn't surprised that no one was in the, the Lake Street screening room.
But I walk in and I didn't notice that like, Ebert was with Chaz like in the, in the corner. And so I,
it was just me and him. And, uh, and I said, oh, you know, I think, you know, it just looks like we're seeing the movie.
It's nice, you know, um, it's honored to be here and, you know, I went to the bathroom and, you know, probably killed time.
So I didn't, it wasn't awkward. I was just sitting in there alone with him.
And, um, and so I go back in and I'm like, oh my god, there's still no one here.
And lo and behold, uh, five minutes, two minutes maybe before the screening starts.
Uh, a guy in a huge extra large shirt that looks like it had coffee stains on it, um, walks in.
He, he says hi to, to Ebert. And then he looks at me and he goes, huh, and then goes and sits down in another aisle.
And I, and I said, this is literally how I felt my entire life. Like it's just, it's just like I don't belong here, but I also belong here at the same time.
Um, so I, you know, Kudos to Richard Roper. And I've seen him certainly at screenings with someone that looks probably about, you know, the third is age.
Um, and, uh, always looks like they, he's just like Mr. Fucking Rock star over there. But guess what, sir, you are no Jean Siskel.
And, uh, never will be and, uh, and certainly no Michael Phillips who is now the king of Chicago when it comes to film criticism. So, um, that's my little.
Well, I'll say that in my, in my, uh, brief run of being a film critic, uh, I, I felt I was like always ending up sitting next to Michael Phillips and he was always very, very nice.
I think they had to, he had to leave because the Chicago sometimes, um, in, in this state of, uh, you know, where media media is king, um, had to excise one of their best writers, I think, um, because they might have diminished some of the writing and probably went to AI or, I don't know, but, um, great time, great world.
Um, speaking of rules, yeah, the world, well, that was the last story, but remember, this is how the world ends.
The end times is coming next year. Um, but speaking of other worlds, Mr. Mike Flanagan, he is heading back into the world of Stephen King.
Uh, with a new adaptation that is completely necessary and 100% going to be superior to the original, the mist.
Um, and as we know, it's a losers club favorite, it was our favorite film of the last 25 years, favorite Stephen King film of the last 25 years.
But Mr. Mike Flanagan, uh, plans on bringing his own version of the mist to the table.
And in a series of posts on Blue Sky, he promises that his adaptation will very be much his own thing.
He says, uh, the mist is going to be great. If there wasn't an excellent answer to why I wouldn't do it.
And he says, I love Deribont's film, and there's zero point in remaking it, which is why I'm going in a different direction.
Uh, and he doubled down on this and he says, this is in the retread, the difference and start in page one.
And it sounds like the, the spike TV show that did the same thing.
Um, it didn't work out too well, because I think Mac and I got about 90, I don't even know if we finished the, I think you'd finish it.
The pilot episode had this really awkward, uh, dark twist. I was like, oh, this is not pleasant at all.
And I didn't think I watched the rest of the show.
I don't know what it was dead. No, it was one of the first pressers we ever got. So we felt like pretty stoked to have it. And then, you know, I was pretty glad we ordered pizza because the afternoon felt pretty pointless, uh, after watching the pilot.
I don't, there've been people speculating about this and somewhere like what if it's from the wives point of view.
Um, you know, obviously there are stories to tell, but that's not the mist. You're just making your own story in this world for me.
And so like, I, I don't know, I, for someone who, who is cow toad so much to King's pros, I just don't know what he's going to pull here.
I mean, it's going to be a project arrowhead story because there is maybe hints of that. I don't know, but like,
he was really successful and welcome to dairy. So I mean, I, you know, let's just roll in.
I just don't see the point. And I, this is, this is where I've gotten confused too because, you know, I've always, the ones praise I've always given in plan again is that he has taken on the most daunting pieces.
And I still believe that because I think the idea of doing a genetic carry in 2026 in which we've had already a TV version. We've already had a remake. We've already had a fucking play for Christ's sake. We've had a sequel.
And, um, I think I'm missing something else. But, you know, and he's going to do it. And I'm sure I'll have some twists and that'll be cool.
The miss though, it hasn't even been 20 years since the movie came out and, you know, I know it will be next year. But this movie is a fucking huge cult classic and arguably for me, like in the top five top 10 Stephen King adaptations.
I just don't see the reason for it. When you could have done revival, you could have done from the UK, you could have done any of the other stories he's done, I just don't get it.
Well, read, read this next code he has about it. And I think this might explain some things here.
So he says, and for what it's worth, I got the same but why comments for Honeywell House, Blind Manor, House of Usher, Carrie, the exorcist, even Ouija, Origin of Evil, also got it for life of Chuck. I've been lucky so far in my life to take on the only take on projects I'm really excited about.
I could argue you could still apply the but why to half of those. Yeah, exorcist. We don't know what's going to happen. Yeah, I mean, I can't imagine. I mean, they announced the cast is like, look at this cast. It's stacked. And I was like, oh, I love my old stack cast.
Oh, it's like TV actors on the big stream. I know. And that's no offense to those actors, but it's true. Like a TV TV movie or something like that. I don't know.
Here's the thing. And he alludes to this with another property. We'll talk about in a minute, you know, even Flanagan and Flanagan and being proven money maker necessarily like Dr. Sleep to make a ton of it. But whatever successful.
Yeah, like, you know, well, it's actually so maybe even maybe that's actually that confirms one about to say is that even being like a respected powerful filmmaker who genre fans love, right. I like a lot of this work too.
He's still at the behest of studios, right. He's still at the behest of what's going to get funded now that he this would never be said publicly, but like you mentioned, welcome to dairy, right.
I would not at all be surprised at all. If some high up executive who actually doesn't know Jack should about movies was like, oh, you know what, the military storyline, welcome.
I did really well. Yeah, the mist has that right Flanagan, you work your magic. I mean, I don't mean to be cynical about it, but like that's he's not the one who's going to he can't greenlight these movies, right.
Unless he's back in himself, which he's not like he is kind of at the behest of studios and and he's right. He's lucky in that he finds a way in. He finds a way to get excited about he has a really good batting average.
But I don't know, I just am a little skeptical like was was this his idea or is this someone else? I do think so is that this is part of his deal with Amazon, right.
Yeah, I think that Amazon is giving him some free reign here. I think that I, you know, to actually support him in this way. I think this is truly what he wants to do. I don't know how compromised.
Oh, yeah, he's been in this instance. I want to be the optimist for once.
I wonder if this is his like two for you one for me sort of thing. And this is why it's going to be coming.
So what he wants to do, obviously, we know is the, you know, is the dark tower. And so he actually, you know, gave us some updates recently about that. You know, so in February said the scripts for the first season are wonderful.
I'm so happy with them. Stephen King is very happy with them. He's been through it with his adaptations. He'll tell you he's not pleased. And this one means more to him than any of the others. So the pressure is huge. I'll be honest. I don't think I would ever be able to tweet that about my own work. But okay.
I'm just, I'm a, I'm a beach really a spiritual generation, X or so, I just have to basically prelude everything I do with.
It's whatever it is, not him. Flanagan though says on February 15th, he gave us a little Valentine Day with the, you know, with an update, he says with the dark tower, I can't control the legal side of it or the green light process. But everything that is within my control is getting the best I've got.
So if I was to build on the theory, I do think that like carries an easy win, you know,
IP win, and the mist, if it is going to be something, you know, it's the most, the
more obvious one in me, it's very simple and probably cost by available.
And you could kind of, you know, do the clint thing where he's like, I could probably
film this under budget and under schedule and get it out there so that I have a little
more leeway for the dark tower.
Cool. I mean, either way that's fine. I just, I don't also want him doing the dark,
I don't want him directing the dark tower, but you know, whatever it is what it is.
I do want a good dark tower adaptation. I think he can definitely give one.
I think you could write the best script for it.
I do have faith, you know, I've been critical of flanagan, even on this very podcast already,
but I choose to once again be kind of optimistic about that because I do think this is a passion
project versus, yeah, the movie we got will it be the what could have been like the glimba
Zera, I know pilot that we were fortunate to have been able to see, I don't know, but you
know, I just have to hope this is all leading to something good. Maybe this will be his
big master work if he can pull this off and really dedicate himself to it, doesn't
just write the couple first couple episodes and hands of off or something like that, you
know.
Yeah, I wish there's just so much you could do. I feel like there's so much you could do
on TV versus trying to make movies out of those movies. Oh, yeah, no, it has to be TV.
There's so much you can do. Even just the Uber complicated version of it that Ron Howard
conceived of with it, like being the movies and then this TV shows is fucking ridiculous.
Even like I don't know anyone that's really have been able to do that either. Like even
the Dune series, I felt like was an afterthought for most people. Like, you know, I don't think
you would remember old. Yeah, I mean, it like the spin off of Game of Thrones seems to
have more of a of a hold on the audience than the fucking Dune show did. I don't see
anyone talk about it. So I agree. It needs to be, it needs to be TV and Jeff Bezos certainly
has enough money to, you know, to fork it over seeing how he, you know, has already created
grocery stores and fucking cities. So I think that's fine. But I don't know. We'll see.
I'm just, well, obviously, be covering carry, you know, be interesting because I love always
going back to the well for that one because it's, it's probably the one I've read the most.
But the miss one bothers me and it pisses me off because it's, it's just like, for me,
it's like, all right, you had a, you had carte blanche to obviously do some sort of adaptation
of any of the King works. I'm just, I, you're the guy to get these lesser often forgotten
stories off the road and get him up the shelves and getting him into this, you know, whatever
screen you get it in. And I just feel like this is like, I don't know, you could have found
something other, I, like, I would have even been interested in the fucking Christine remake
for before the mist at this point, or like, you know, even like, I'm trying to think
of an easy sell. Like, well, the thing that does suck is that I'm sure he would have
done Salem's lot if he had not done, you know, if it hit that mask remake and minimass
and stuff. So, which, you know, Brian Fuller hadn't had the rights tied up for Christine
to maybe you've done Christine or something like that. And they're all friends. I could
definitely see him doing Christine. But, um, yeah, I don't know, will any other thoughts
on this? No, we'll see. Yeah. Let's see what happens at this point. I mean, look, he
loves his king. And I think, I think Dr. Sleep the movie, I don't love it by any means,
but I think it's better than the book. I think that we do with Gerald's game was kind
of a miracle. Yeah. I really like his king stuff. Oh, I, I haven't seen life of Chuck.
I don't know if that's going to happen. Um, cause I don't have to cover it. They didn't
look very great to me. You don't want to join the dance. Uh, what was it? I don't want
to. Sammy, Sammy was so furious about that movie that, um, she, any mention of it,
she'll lose her mind. I was surprisingly like, this is literally exactly what I thought it
was going to be. Eventually. Yeah. Cause it was just an airplane movie. It is. It is. I mean,
it's not even a, I wouldn't even say it's a hotel movie because I, my hottest take on it
is that it's not even a hot take. It's just that I actually don't, I think the weak link in
the movie is Tom Hilsson. Cause I just don't think he's that compelling. I'm an actor. Like,
I think he's good and Loki, but, you know, sure. I don't need to see Loki again either. So, um,
I, you know, I, I think it would have been better. Honestly, if you even had Lillard as the
fucking lead in that movie, it would have been at least more nuance, but I just find Hilsson
boring as fuck. So, um, I just like, anyway, that was a part of it. But, um, you know, it's fine.
He hasn't made a bad, like, to be, I don't think he's made a bad king movie. I just don't,
I just think, you know, and I said it on the episode when we talked about, you know,
the king Renaissance and all. I don't think he's this author that people say he is. And he's
certainly not the same as Daribont, which is why I'm like, why do you think you could fucking
even match Daribont? Are you kidding me? I mean, I know his episodes of Stranger Things were
whatever. But like, you know, he's still, he's still, he's still Frank Daribont. Like, it's,
and he's still the best person that we've had on that on Tackle King since Reiner. So, um,
that's true. You know, anyway, that's my piece. We'll see what happens. It does excite me,
because I do want to see a fucking real dark tower adaptation and that mesara pilot still comes
to mind all the time. Well, it goes to mine because even though we didn't get any more, it's like,
oh, this can work. You can. It can make this work. But we'll see. Yeah. That's all we can do.
Well, that's it. The sunset. It's time to roll up those windows, put up the hood. And I'm
going to get you guys back to LAX where, you know, you can only hope that the TSA isn't a good
mood today. Uh, coming up, I know we've got more ranking. And I believe was the ranking
episode already filmed? They're, you know, recorded. I'm not on this one, but thank you for
you. I think he's on all right. I am. I don't remember when we're filming. Okay. Well, we got
not yet. It hasn't happened yet. Well, it's good to know that we know what's, uh, certainly coming
up. And I'm still, I'm scrolling to find the calendar. Uh, but, you know, at the same time,
I know that we are going to, uh, be, you know, releasing some, some goodies. We just released our
entertainment weekly pop of king for 2005, which I think Justin, you were on that episode. Um,
which is from back in the day. Yeah. A little long time ago. But I still never been on a pop of
king. I'm like, fucking dying to be on it. Oh, they're fun. They're really good. It's just like,
it's just such a cool, it's like so up my alley. Um, but we've also got, uh, you know,
the, we're going to be talking about the reploids or maybe the garbage truck.
We don't know. Um, in Stephen King archives, which we haven't done in archives, a strictly archives
episode in quite a, quite a while. And that's, that's still one of my favorite features of this
podcast. Cause we have, let me tell you so many things to cover. And I mentioned garbage truck.
We, I don't think we've done a garbage truck episodes since 2023. If not 2022. So, uh, lots to
continue there. We're also going to be talking about the best and worst endings, uh, as a list.
That was a fun episode. Oh, you got to see knock that already. Okay. With Jen and Rachel. That was fun.
Nice. I'm very, I'm very interested to see because my, my long take for a while is that I think
it's been overstated that he has, he doesn't know what a land is. Oh, yeah. We, I think he's reviewing
that. I think it's, he's actually pretty great. I think you'll like where we all landed on that
take. Well, cause what, what started that was it the, the, the stand? Was that the, um, I think
it was like maybe it in the stand and things like that. But yeah, well, I just think that that's
reductive in the way. But you'll hear all about on the episode. And then to cap it all off,
we're going to be ranking 58 to 53. Um, and you'll just have to tune in to find out what those choices
are. Um, once again, be sure to follow us on socials. You know, we've got multiple accounts, Facebook,
Instagram and Twitter. And it's only one handle now losers club pod. I had to do it.
Like it was tired of seeing the losers club podcast every time as a handle. It's too
fucking long. I don't know why we chose that. So it's all just losers club pod. You know,
it's like, uh, what Sean from Facebook, we shills a little down. So if you're feeling really
charitable though, leave us a review on Apple podcasts or Spotify. You know, you could let us know
how we're doing. But, you know, leaving us some bright red Pennywise clown noses. You know,
we are the greatest podcasts that ever hit the airwaves. So I think we deserve, you know,
I tell John melanchamp, this is up in a jerk. Come on, our podcast. Just like, you just,
but if you get on a pod, let's talk about those chilly dogs. And let's talk about, you know,
Larry McMurray Center, which I know isn't your song. It's a J Gill song. But I still always credit it
to you because the people on Napster used to label it as a John melanchamp song. And it's still my
favorite John melanchamp song, even though it's not your song. So let's talk about Senifold. Um,
thank you for joining me on this ride today, gentlemen. And thank you to our trusty editor Kyle
Roosevelt, who is always there to make me sound smarter than I actually am. And, uh, you know,
you couldn't even imagine the guff that that's on the original recordings of these.
Well, let's do, let's do, let's, let's, let's mess with Kyle there a little bit who's been with
us for God knows just about how long this podcast has been on Kyle. He put in a sound of like a,
like a clown car honking at somebody. Keep it in the noise real quick. All right, wrap it up.
Cool. Thank you. Thanks, Kyle. Loved it. Until the next time, constantly,
so we'll be seeing you over long days and
let's listen.
You've made it to the end of another bloody disgusting podcast. Congratulations.
If you like our programming, consider searching for other bloody disgusting podcasts,
such as Creepy, horror queers, the Boo Crew, SEP archives, night light, Margaret's garden,
and more.
Dan, do you have any requests? Oh, um, no, I can't play Senifold because, because
I know we get trouble.
Hey, Jake, I was banned.
It is, but it's also, you know, you could just say it's melanchamp. It's the same song.
The writer, Kyle, play Senifold with John, the John melanchamp version.
But my John melancholy, you could find a copyright free version.
I'll ask this. I'd love to hear the noise of the audiences watching Alien and for the first time.
The movie is one of the scariest old-fashioned space offers I can remember.
Well, it did scare me too. I looked away and I was yelling with like a few other people.
It's going to hit them on the floor. It's going to come from the ceiling.
It's in the, and next row, it's behind me in the theater, right?
If not, just do an audio of, um, of like a giraffe or something.
They're quiet, but they do speak.
All right. Well, I hope you enjoyed all of that.
Okay. I hope Kyle enjoyed all that. I hope Kyle did too.
Extra work. Nice little research there. I'm sorry, Kyle.
