a funny dude. You're an accomplished podcaster. This shouldn't be hard

0:57

for you. It's very easy. Listen, I've done

0:59

a lot of podcasts, so this shouldn't be hard. Okay,

1:02

so yeah, let's just start again and, you know, just

1:04

have fun with it. Be yourself. It's

1:07

Jordan Jesse Go. I'm Jordan Morris Boy,

1:09

detective. And I'm Matt Lieb, America's

1:11

radio sweetheart. Do

1:14

you want to just have Jesse's nickname or do you want

1:16

to do your own? Should I do my own?

1:18

You can. Yeah, you can. I

1:21

can do my own? Okay. You can do your

1:23

own, yeah. I mean, just be you. Don't feel like you

1:25

have to be Jesse. I don't care. I'm not Jesse. He's

1:28

his own thing. He's his own guy. Right. I'm

1:31

1:42

Thorn. Maybe just do America's radio sweetheart. Okay,

1:44

okay. I'll do America's radio sweetheart. That seems kind

1:46

of like shitty. People are listening to me like Jesse. That's why

1:49

they're listening to the show. I like Jesse. So

1:51

you kind of. I thought you were saying

1:53

before, that's what I should do. That was,

1:55

you know, I should have been more specific. Okay. How

1:58

about this? Have your own nickname. Maybe

2:00

just leave Jesse out of

2:02

it. Pretending he's not even here. This

2:04

happens sometimes. Sometimes, you know, one of us goes

2:07

out or has to miss a show and we

2:09

have other co-hosts. So this happens.

2:12

But bring your own flavor and don't feel like

2:14

you have to make it all about Jesse.

2:16

It's about me. It's about you, Matt. All right.

5:58

like reading recognizes. Cb I watch

6:03

than Bucks. Matter what are your like

6:05

hotcakes what are what are the things

6:07

that like? maybe maybe maybe cause a

6:09

little that little scrum in in the

6:11

comet? you know I I I think

6:14

right now as as as as a

6:16

record this today the Critics' Choice Awards

6:18

of does happen an end the bear

6:20

one big as the show. I love.

6:23

But here's the thing with the bear keeps

6:25

when it all these awards in the comedy

6:27

category. Joe. It and I think I

6:29

think it would win these awards even if it

6:31

was in the drama. Category Yeoman is a

6:33

category it should be. And guys that we

6:35

all love the so it's a good show.

6:37

How amazing performances! You're. Not laughing

6:40

matter if you're not let your cry

6:42

and they had some jokes in the

6:44

first season. Just but the fact that

6:46

we can count on family three negates

6:49

and kids drugs your business other drivers

6:51

out I'm laughing or thou the her

6:53

an email me at her eyes and

6:56

to know more Funny moment. As you

6:58

know now we're getting panic attacks. said

7:00

mom means dying very scary lot brooding

7:03

tehran. yeah yeah and over her lot

7:05

anger. So funny about a sad mom

7:07

leg. or you know, and. This

7:09

tragic are relying upon like know

7:11

going again I believe Lady Dulles

7:14

Nodes is so said. It's beautiful,

7:16

but it's a beautiful drama that

7:18

has some light moments and I

7:20

just think it should be in

7:22

that category. So the real comedies.

7:25

The. Show the have the jet or which I

7:27

think is what should be celebrated in the com

7:29

Mcadam where we we agree. I

7:31

think those those deserve the space. Would.

7:33

Are literally like actual funny shows that

7:35

never did acknowledge when when that award

7:38

Jon Snow Banks Young Shelburne yes the

7:40

and like if you thought he was

7:42

funny old. Ya. See him out

7:44

the I'm Young aluminium ah for our

7:46

younger Silva have been that the I

7:48

use on the shelves and neither are

7:51

using you saw her young the here

7:53

as well as I got a spin

7:55

off Going Younger Selves it is. Yeah

7:57

it's his parents like before he was.

8:00

The like in The Love

8:02

of Euros Or Sheldon. As

8:05

we are be as the years old

8:07

and or silver surfer like the ourselves

8:09

in calm and rise of a nurse

8:12

and monsieur of ourselves and. If

8:15

I was I would say like Abbott Elementary

8:17

as the So I think the comedy aware

8:19

that isn't getting the recognition this award season

8:21

and I would have been so happy to

8:24

see Abbott Elementary sleep all the comedy awards.

8:26

I think the Bear still would have won

8:28

all the drama ward year even. Up against

8:30

success And yup, But.

8:32

Mean on said and said we're we're

8:35

we're divided things up Weird Yeah, that's

8:37

when you get that when when that

8:39

dividing up happens the Be V Comedy.

8:42

You're You're left with the comedy tastes

8:44

of the most. Fucking. Boring

8:47

credit classes are exactly that. Likes

8:49

things draw very lucky. An area

8:51

where they like it made me

8:53

feel egg with does it make

8:55

you laugh is held up a

8:58

mirror ways. they are his firehouse

9:00

mirrors. And how many jokes were

9:02

there Effective in that type of

9:04

like tv critic. Ah,

9:06

Who. Is. I

9:08

would be like v don't. Like

9:11

the idea of their sitcom writers out there

9:13

trying to like cram jokes in their daughters

9:15

and it's like know we all can tell

9:17

when that's force but when a sitcom is

9:19

really good oh yes you love it. It's

9:21

heard it like you know firing when the

9:24

jokes that as silk jokes that would never

9:26

date they look at it and I think

9:28

it's a lower form and elder like you

9:30

know I would like. I

9:32

would like a thirty minutes. Sad.

9:35

Show us as a concept someone a very

9:37

far one it's it out and saw of

9:39

as add sounds to me long long as

9:42

well as as as who and a sore

9:44

thumb outside so I can watch while I'm

9:46

eating Liliana unless I was I've been around

9:48

and sort of the this bug no longer

9:50

than to quit be successor be length lots

9:53

of tears I know what you laugh but

9:55

I do want to go. remember

10:00

We all did it. We

10:02

all did it. We almost-

10:06

We almost harmonized with our We did.

10:10

Our smug TV critics. Yes,

10:12

very good. Yeah, I mean,

10:16

I was a TV critic for

10:18

many years. Well, not

10:20

many, I guess. I

10:23

started at The Onion working

10:25

in the advertising side of

10:27

things and really wanted to

10:30

focus on comedy and stuff at that point but

10:33

they- One of the writers,

10:35

Beyonce's Lemonade had just come out and one

10:37

of the editors posted it on Facebook and

10:39

was basically like we need

10:41

a black person to write about this. Help!

10:46

And I had written- We're

10:48

out of our depth! I don't

10:50

know what to do! And I

10:52

had written a Tumblr post, blog post about

10:54

Lemonade that I just had put up, didn't

10:56

really care. And she hit me up and

10:58

was like, that was just wonderful.

11:00

Would you write something for the AV club

11:02

and start writing for us? And

11:05

it just happened to hit this time in Hollywood

11:07

when they were actually making black TV shows. So

11:09

that same year, Insecure premiered, there

11:12

was Blackish, Scandal, How

11:15

to Get Away with Murder, and they were like,

11:17

oh no, we have all these black shows and

11:20

we only have two black critics at the

11:22

time. And I

11:24

was like, Ashley, have

11:27

you been to a Red Lobster? What's

11:29

a Red Lobster? What do these references

11:31

mean? Is this about her

11:33

breakup? And I would just literally be like,

11:35

so she's talking about the South here. And

11:38

they had me do episode

11:40

recaps of Insecure, Blackish, just

11:44

basically every black show that I

11:46

would cover, any black

11:48

movie they would ask me to do.

11:52

And I wrote for a lot of other sites from there.

11:54

But I just, I

11:56

think that stereotype of the critics is

11:58

just a stereotype. is

12:00

so real and I

12:03

kind of got tired of just being

12:05

asked to be this critical

12:07

voice who basically explains like black art to

12:10

white audiences. That's what you realize your role

12:12

is, is like you don't really get to

12:14

be a critic, you get to be this

12:16

person who has to explain like what Atlanta

12:19

means to a white editor. And it just

12:22

was so frustrating and... But you explain it to me

12:24

so then I can explain it to my friends. Did

12:27

you read that piece you know in Falter

12:31

where they explained that actually it's just about

12:34

black boy joy. And it's

12:37

like and you're just like okay and I

12:39

got so kind of sick of that and just

12:42

kind of hit this wall where you know also

12:44

a lot of people in

12:46

the industry that I think are amazing

12:48

and brilliant would give me advice and be like you know

12:50

you got to be a creative or a critic are you

12:52

gonna make stuff? Are you gonna talk about people's stuff? What

12:55

do you want to do? I was like well yeah I'm

12:57

gonna make stuff. So you know I'm

12:59

gonna put this album out Ice Cream Money

13:01

it's out March 1st and I'm so excited

13:03

to see what what critics say. Beautiful

13:06

stealth plug by the way. Thank you. I gotta learn how

13:08

to do that man. To

13:11

every critic March 1st go stream

13:14

Ice Cream Money wherever you end

13:16

to write about it. Just give

13:18

it a send it all back to me. I

13:21

mean... You should write your own review of it. I

13:23

should review myself. Yeah you should. I don't know if

13:25

it's too late I don't know where you are in the mixing

13:28

process or something but you know maybe

13:30

just to kind of get those critics on your side.

13:32

I mean because obviously you know that you

13:35

know their voice and you

13:37

know they people listen to them. You

13:40

know obviously you probably have really like funny jokes with

13:42

like punch lines that you've worked on but maybe just

13:44

go back in there to just

13:46

be like generational trauma.

13:48

Yes yes yes. Do you cry

13:50

in the middle of

13:52

your set at any point? I

13:54

make someone cry. Oh I like to yeah.

13:56

You gotta work in crowd work these days.

13:58

Yeah yeah yeah. I

14:01

like that I never thought to do that yeah,

14:03

I was like I'm

14:05

not hack I just try to make them

14:07

laugh. Yeah, no, but you may over cry.

14:09

Yeah now we make comedy over comedy ended

14:12

when Donald Came

14:16

the president and ruined comment.

14:18

I am like if this was a sketch

14:21

it would be you on the nose We're

14:24

in a post-riff comedy world Yeah, yeah, we're

14:26

pre Sheldon but right

14:31

and In

14:34

the era of our time of Joe koi where you

14:36

insult the audience. That's right. Yeah, and the writers who

14:38

wrote your job writer Yeah,

14:43

right you're explaining

14:45

why this isn't funny I

14:47

do love that Joe koi became the whatever

14:49

the opposite of a comics comic is

14:52

by just deciding to throw every writer

14:54

under What

14:57

are you you didn't even do that bad I

14:59

thought he did pretty good it would have been

15:01

fine I would have noticed

15:03

yeah, it would have been like every other

15:05

offended Yeah, I think it would have just

15:07

been fine if he had just like Accepted

15:10

the bomb in the moment and kept reading

15:12

the jokes. Yeah, the fact that he stopped

15:14

to be like oh, come on Not

15:21

even paying attention And

15:27

that's like buddy come on just you know Do

15:30

your job he hasn't done a corporate gig in

15:32

a while exactly when you do corporate gigs? Oh,

15:35

yeah, but both of you done. Oh To

15:38

do you work if you're doing comedy

15:40

at a workplace? Okay, like the Squarespace

15:43

company picks a gal sales force wait.

15:45

Let me say someone who's not a

15:47

sponsor Oh

15:50

god, do I have to take time code?

15:52

Are you going anyway? Yeah,

15:56

like the sales force, you know like

15:58

doing corporate gigs is

16:01

just basically doing comedy in front of

16:03

people who are too scared to

16:06

laugh at something that's edgy. Because

16:08

of the fact that, you know, HR is there,

16:10

HR is your post is there, you know? I

16:15

always have to run the cleanest set. Yeah. It

16:18

has to be stuff that people are like, oh

16:20

man, I have experienced that pouring

16:22

a bowl of cereal in the morning. Yeah,

16:25

yeah, that's really relatable. People are being

16:27

held hostage. You break out the cereal

16:29

shit. Yeah, you bring out the- Your

16:31

tight frosted flakes five. Yeah, you know, the

16:33

thing that you could have done on cordon

16:35

back in the day. It's that kind of

16:37

thing. But yeah. But

16:39

you get paid a lot of money. But you get paid

16:41

a lot of money. It's a hell gig. And that's just

16:43

part of the life. That's part, yeah, it's stage time. But

16:46

I think, you know, he's

16:48

a huge comic now. The only performance for

16:51

audiences who love him. He forgot

16:53

that there were audiences out there that don't

16:55

care. That are, think they're

16:57

better than him, right? And, you know,

16:59

that can be jarring for a

17:01

famous guy. And like award

17:04

showed jokes are kind of

17:06

corny. You know, and it's like they have

17:08

to be kind of corny. Yeah, so it's

17:10

like if one bombs, just roll with it.

17:13

It's a whole fucking, it's a corn on

17:15

the cob fest, man. Yeah, butter them up.

17:17

Butter those cobs. Yeah, butter them

17:19

up. Move on to the next one. Get

17:21

that next kernel and just take crunch. Corn

17:23

forks in the end. Yeah, I'm gonna get

17:26

through it. But yeah, everyone

17:28

now is like, it's so hard to host an

17:30

award show. And then Chelsea Handler did the Critics

17:32

Choice Award tonight. And she was pretty

17:34

good. And she made a little knock

17:36

at joke. Her joke got

17:38

a laugh and she went, thanks. My writers wrote

17:40

it. Hey, that's nice, right? We like to hear

17:43

it. We like to hear it. We like to

17:45

hear it. They're exit. Yeah, sure. So

17:47

it's like, oh, it's a little like. Oh, I didn't know

17:49

that. Yeah, they dated it for like in the back. So

17:51

18:07

on that you how did they made

18:09

any Sags effort of I am I

18:12

kill zone a result of the way

18:14

to explain. You know that. The.

18:16

Dating Life of Fifty Cent. But.

18:18

I like Cel I we I do know

18:20

I think they met when he did. as

18:22

a times he had a lead so and

18:25

then also fit he was working on a

18:27

you probably don't remember it only ran for

18:29

about six episodes on Be teeth and the

18:31

he was making a sketch comedy so why.

18:35

I can armor we're going to cause city

18:37

sketch know it was good in had a

18:39

really stupid name I am really have met

18:41

I cannot remember the dumb name of is

18:43

so yeah but it was supposed to be

18:46

just like like he's hired on Sense and

18:48

Sensibility. Her own as I live in

18:50

that maybe implies that it's like

18:52

i'm you know about comedy of

18:54

manners like F roaring then thing

18:56

England? ah have to resign. It

18:58

was so stupid it was like

19:00

yeah, but. The. He looks just like

19:02

tired of a to comics. He loved to do

19:05

this and then I guess he also ended up

19:07

being involved like producing an eye and that's how

19:09

they had a meeting and is love An and

19:11

I made a while I mean that means the

19:13

phone while and they saw my yes. I

19:16

loved every one I've ever dated. A of us was

19:18

younger when I heard of the as as bala would

19:20

love ya and any. I was like to go out

19:22

on a date and God said yes to the mall

19:24

and so is. It was fun. But

19:27

speaking of and speaking of unusual comedy

19:30

gigs, this is something I've wanted to

19:32

talk about. Know that heard it was

19:34

happening? Ah sl what? Well lay a

19:36

little away. a little groundwork for yeah,

19:40

I know you're a huge fan of the

19:42

show must every episode but I'm just pretend

19:44

like you know and you're never heard of

19:46

a new episode as we have a beloved

19:49

sedition on this show where every August we

19:51

celebrate anal August's what's right and you know

19:53

that can mean a lot of things. that

19:56

could mean. You know I'm trying new

19:58

new sexual act. nobody's but also just

20:00

it's it. It's in the spirit of

20:02

being. Open and and

20:04

curious and welcoming to new ideas.

20:06

s and this became a thing

20:09

on the show when I drove

20:11

past the Pleasure Chest in West

20:13

Hollywood Vienna and they had assigned

20:15

to said happy analog and it

20:17

just made it to I Made

20:19

An Impression source and so now

20:21

every every year on the show

20:24

20:28

pleasure chess which is like a

20:30

26:17

the really thin lips and you know the alien with the

26:19

the she has kind of like the wide hips. She's a

26:21

little thicker. Yeah, she sings that like you know that song?

26:23

Yeah, that. Yeah, her. Sure. Well, I don't consider the Special

Edition to be canon.

26:33

Oh, okay. Wow. Wow.

26:35

Well, okay. I

26:37

only watched the originals on laserdisc.

26:39

That's fair, but you know, kind

26:41

of invalidating to my sexual preferences.

26:43

Yeah, you shouldn't do that. You

26:46

shouldn't yuck his yum. Don't yuck

26:48

my crumb. Oh, you're right. Sorry.

26:50

Sorry, I yucked your cum. I

26:52

26:54

judging. I'm just gonna like

26:56

step back and I'm gonna listen and I'm

26:58

gonna do the work. Try to do better.

27:01

There's one thing I would ask is that

27:03

you do better. I will. And not to

27:05

yuck my cum. You gotta listen.

27:07

I'm gonna go on a retreat with my good friend Matt

27:09

27:14

someone call me? I

27:17

was in the trash,

27:19

but I got out.

27:22

I'm filled with your

27:24

son. Wait,

27:28

I do want to go back for a second to

27:30

to the world of being a TV podcaster

27:33

and having to like have hot takes.

27:35

Yeah. Matt, what are the Sopranos fans

27:38

like? I would, if I want to take

27:40

a guess, I would guess that

27:42

maybe there's a pocket of that fandom that's a

27:44

little hard to please. Oh yeah, so there's two

27:46

types. There's two types of Sopranos fans. One

27:49

type is the one that watched that show and

27:51

said, this is a really funny show that's kind

27:54

of like it is, it masks.

27:56

It's doing it like an opposite. It's

27:58

doing a reverse. bear. It's

28:02

marketed as this, you

28:04

know, uh, mobster drama.

28:07

Um, but it's really just an

28:09

hour long sitcom that's just hilarious.

28:12

Uh, and there's the fans that realize that and

28:14

appreciate that and just think it's the funniest show

28:16

ever. Um, and then there's another

28:18

fan, uh, that has

28:21

a Scarface poster in their room

28:23

and they're like, I like Tony Soprano

28:25

because he's a cool guy. Sure. Like

28:27

he's so cool the way he works

28:29

at a strip club. He like punches

28:31

people. I want to be just like

28:33

Rick from Rick and Morty. Yeah, exactly.

28:35

And there's no part of them that

28:38

sees any of this as a metaphor

28:40

for anything. They're like, no, it's a

28:42

show about a cool guy. Stupid

28:45

wife won't let him live his life. Yeah,

28:47

he's stupid. Yeah. Thank you. Yeah. So

28:52

people didn't like Skylar and Breaking Bad.

28:54

Yeah, exactly. It's where the people who

28:57

were like Don Draper's cool as hell.

28:59

Yeah. Right. Yeah. I don't think about

29:01

you at all. Yeah. Yeah. I

29:05

love it. How he's drunk at work and he

29:07

cheats on his wife. Oh, it's not the best.

29:09

Yeah. He seems happy drunk drives with his kids

29:11

in the car. No, that's not a show about

29:13

a sad man. It's

29:16

killing it at

29:19

work. Yeah. But

29:21

yeah, that is like an entire type of

29:23

person. And to be honest, I started off

29:26

when we did the podcast, I started off

29:28

being a person who was like, I think

29:30

it's an hour long sitcom. And I ended

29:32

being like, you know, the people who just

29:34

think Tony is a cool guy, they're the

29:36

most pure fan. Yeah. Because they

29:39

are the ones who are not

29:41

trying to, they're not too heady

29:43

about it. Like they're just, they're

29:45

just like watching a show and

29:47

they're and they're like, yeah, I also

29:50

like titties and meat. And

29:52

I'm like, me too. I don't

29:54

know. Yeah. It's like, yeah, no,

29:56

why am I, I'm just. over

30:00

intellectualizing this whole thing. Those

30:03

are the two things that I agree with. Yeah, when

30:05

Mad Men ended for me, I was like, cool. New

30:07

business idea, I bet he gets a younger wife. Yeah,

30:11

when's he gonna get rid of that old hat? Good

30:14

for him. Good for him. That's all I wanted. Ashley,

30:17

what TV fandoms are complicated

30:19

to deal with in your

30:21

town? Yeah,

30:23

immediately. I'll start with a recent one.

30:25

I deal with a lot of TV

30:27

fandoms. Obviously, I share a lot of

30:29

TV opinions. On social media, they come

30:31

from me about all types of shows. The

30:34

one that was the fiercest was

30:36

the Ted Lasso fandom. Oh, I

30:38

heard about it. Yeah,

30:40

they're good like Disney adults. The

30:43

way they love it. Enamel pins? Yeah,

30:45

I mean, it's like Ted Lasso saved

30:47

them at the darkest part of their

30:50

lives the first year of the pandemic.

30:52

There were people who truly lost themselves

30:54

and found this show and treat it

30:56

like it is their personal therapist. Wow.

30:58

And this last season, if you watch

31:02

Ted Lasso, first of all, either. I've only

31:04

seen a couple episodes. I liked both of

31:06

them, but I also felt like I didn't

31:08

need to watch more. I promised my mom

31:10

I would try it. Okay. Yeah. I

31:13

will. Mommy. Yeah. You're listening. Yeah,

31:15

I would say I love the first season.

31:17

It was absolutely amazing. The first season is

31:19

so good. The third season, there are a

31:22

lot of behind the scenes changes. The show

31:24

kind of goes off the rails in some

31:26

weird ways and the fans could not take

31:28

it. They were just like there's they

31:31

all people wanted like the two main characters to

31:33

get together. There were all these things that they

31:35

thought were pointing to stuff and people just started

31:37

losing it. The fans started like yelling at anyone

31:39

who was like, those people aren't going to get

31:42

together. They would attack them, docks them like just

31:44

true. How do you not believe Rebecca and Ted

31:46

are going to get together? You are ruining my

31:48

life. What

31:52

do you mean? And then when they didn't get together, the

31:54

people were like, sorry. People

31:58

were like, this is not the real finale. cannot

32:00

be written. It's all a dream. No, people truly

32:02

started being like... Ted Lasso was on the operating

32:04

table. People truly started like writing entire threads like

32:07

why the Ted Lasso finale was actually a dream

32:09

and none of what we saw at the end

32:11

actually happened. Wow. Because there's a shot where Ted

32:13

goes back to America on the plane and he

32:16

like falls asleep and they were like everything after

32:18

this is a dream and people are like it's

32:20

not. There's things that happen that he would have

32:22

no idea about. So

32:25

I think maybe this is a good time... That is

32:27

incredible. Maybe for this is a good time for me

32:29

to admit this. This

32:31

episode has been a dream. I

32:33

got hit by a car on the

32:35

way over and I am on a

32:37

gurney in an ambulance and they're shining

32:39

that little pen light in my eye.

32:41

And you're podcasting in your subconscious. Yeah.

32:43

So let's all... Why don't we take

32:45

a break. We'll process this and we'll

32:47

come back for some more. We'll

32:50

be right back. It's

33:06

Jordan Jessy Go. I'm Jordan Morris, boy

33:08

detective. And I'm Matt Lieb filling in

33:10

for Jesse Thorne. Hey we

33:13

want to say thank you to

33:15

all the folks who have gone

33:17

to maximumfun.org/join and kicked in a

33:19

couple of bucks to keep the

33:21

show going. You're the lifeblood of

33:23

this company and this podcast. We

33:25

love your blood. Please give me

33:27

45:47

that's when I first had sex Wow Yeah,

45:50

I was 18 years old because it's

45:52

elite it was illegal to do it before that well

45:55

Yeah, so you did someone who follows the law. We

45:57

didn't do it. Yeah, I had a lot of opportunities

46:00

all of your partners your birth yeah yeah yeah I

46:02

start with that they go just so you know I'm

46:06

allowed to do this is a nice

46:08

and legal and

46:10

yeah so you know I've turned down a

46:13

46:51

lot of rules yeah I mean you know they got

46:53

no caffeine they can only watch TV shows on a

46:55

list yeah there's a little buddy

46:57

approved Mormon list of TV shows yeah yeah

46:59

they put wonka on that list the Timothy

47:01

Shala they can see wonka they can see

47:03

wonka I love that I think that's why I

47:05

made so much money oh cuz the Mormon is

47:08

a Mormon bump yeah Mormon bump I got it

47:10

you know what I'm gonna make a

47:12

comedy album that's gonna be on that

47:14

Mormon list yeah and then I will make

47:16

the money that jokes about coffee now no

47:18

jokes about coffee no jokes about premarital sex

47:20

nothing about Sprite nothing about

47:23

Sprite definitely not because the caffeine in that sprite

47:25

no I'm just gonna be

47:27

jokes about soaking that's

47:29

what they do right so yeah that's a

47:31

Mormon thing or bubble for more than that

47:33

do you see in bubble porn no

47:36

no I have something in

47:38

my head and yeah I

47:40

want it what's up let's

47:42

okay let's say what we

47:44

yeah yeah I would say

47:46

what you think bubble for

47:48

I imagine it is like

47:50

people in bubble suits doing

47:53

like sexual thing like bubble boy bubble boy oh

47:56

right right right yeah those like yeah

47:58

that's the people use of the ocean

48:00

I imagine that maybe like the hands

48:03

stick through like when you're handling nuclear

48:05

material They're bouncing in like yeah doing

48:07

things through plastic. Mm-hmm close What

48:10

about you? Uh, yeah, I mean, I think it's just

48:12

a good time to say Bubble

48:15

the graphic novel to Eisner nominations Figuring

48:20

out how to do the plug. Thank you.

48:23

Um, not pornographic. It's a little sexy

48:25

at points. Yes But

48:28

okay, what do I think bubble

48:30

porn is? Yeah, I think maybe it

48:32

is like Like

48:35

a lot of times when you know when I

48:37

like a cartoon character gets out of the bath

48:40

They're kind of strategically covered with

48:42

bubbles So

48:45

maybe it's something like that where

48:47

an existing Saucy

48:49

film or photograph. Mm-hmm is

48:52

Altered after the fact kind of like

48:54

George Lucas altered his class to make

48:56

the hot girl Yes,

49:02

so yeah, I think it's maybe yeah maybe

49:04

a pre-existing a piece

49:07

of adult material where Strategic

49:09

bubbles have been added so you can't

49:11

see the naughtiest bits. That is actually

49:13

pretty close really? Yeah, so what it

49:15

is is you

49:17

take any Picture

49:20

of somebody and you

49:22

just cut a circle around their midsection, especially

49:24

if they're wearing like a Shoulderless

49:27

thing. Oh, yeah, and then

49:29

and then around here too

49:32

all the sudden Your mind

49:34

fills in the gaps with movies,

49:36

right and vagina what's hornier than

49:39

the human mind? Yeah, right Yeah,

49:41

number one erogenous. So you don't

49:43

put you don't even put bubbles in it. No,

49:45

it's a you can I Mean

49:48

I'm sure there are some Mormons who are

49:50

good at Photoshop and they do it with

49:52

actual bubbles But this is just a cutout

49:54

circle and you take so you cut

49:56

out the circle where the bikini is, right? Yeah,

49:58

and then in your mind all you see is

50:00

naked lady. Yeah. And

50:02

I don't mean to like poke holes in this. And

50:05

again, I don't wanna, I'm sorry I can't change.

50:07

You don't wanna poke bubbles. Yeah, yeah. And say

50:09

yes, because they'll pop. There's one thing I know.

50:11

That's the memo. Okay. Because

50:13

I'm sorry I can't change you earlier. No, that's

50:15

fine. I forgive him. I've been very sex negative.

50:17

Thank you. You know, I wanna be sex positive.

50:19

Again, I'm looking at myself. I'm growing Matt Rife

50:21

and I are going to a meditation retreat. Oh,

50:23

that's beautiful. We're gonna play this singing bowl. I

50:26

love those. You stood on the... You're

50:28

gonna be screaming. You're gonna be heard right? Yeah.

50:30

Yeah. Spread on the bowl. Proud

50:33

work with the Tibetan singing bowl. Yeah, he's like,

50:35

oh, where are you from? Ooh. Ooh. Ooh.

50:39

Ooh. Ooh. Ooh. Ooh.

50:42

But if you're

50:44

making these, cause

50:47

these are like homemade, right? They are homemade,

50:49

that's right. Aren't you seeing the naughty bit

50:51

while you're cutting it out? Well, someone's gotta

50:53

go to hell in order for everyone else

50:55

to go to hell. Okay, there it is.

50:57

Oh, so is there a kind

51:00

of a Christ-like figure who takes

51:02

on... Who takes on that burden

51:04

of cutting out the boobies? Yeah,

51:06

someone is definitely dying for others'

51:09

sins. So there's just like a

51:11

selfless... Selfless Mormon out there

51:13

who's just like... Sports Illustrated

51:15

Swimsuit Edition. Yeah, flipping it

51:17

out. And photos of Timothy

51:20

Chalamet in awards shows. Yeah,

51:22

and just being like, yeah,

51:24

I'm going to hell. But

51:27

think of all the people I'm saving. Yeah, that

51:29

I'm sending to heaven. So beautiful. And in a

51:31

way, maybe gotta look at that and

51:33

you'll get like... Bonus points. Bonus

51:35

points. Because there's probably a trial, I assume.

51:38

Yeah, yeah, that's like what it says, right?

51:40

You go in the... Like who's St. Peter?

51:42

The judge, right? The

51:44

judge of heaven. Yeah, and there's

51:46

a book and it marks that it has

51:48

everything, right? Yeah, and he tells you like,

51:50

listen, negative 10

51:53

points for looking at over

51:55

10,000 naked ladies or,

51:57

you know, sweat-coat ladies. But...

52:00

plus 20 points for all the souls that

52:02

you say you're doing that yeah he did

52:06

it he snipped for us yeah then

52:08

you go to heaven then this is

52:10

my real question yeah and

52:12

I think we can answer this theologian

52:15

yeah you guys can answer no problem then

52:17

you get to look at naked ladies in

52:20

heaven no

52:22

I don't think so still I mean it's

52:25

what's the point then it's I mean why

52:27

why to be closer to the Lord when you're

52:30

in heaven you don't want to look at naked

52:34

oh yeah you don't have that kind

52:36

of desire to sit at the right

52:39

hand of the king and you feel

52:41

all fulfillment you don't even want to

52:43

come thank you I actually that does

52:46

sound great oh no coming down out

The Flophouse, a long-running podcast on the

54:19

Maximum Fun Network, where we watch a

54:21

bad movie and then talk about it.

54:24

And because we're so long-running, maybe you haven't given

54:26

us a chance. I get it. You

54:29

don't actually have to know anything about previous episodes

54:31

to enjoy us. And I promise you that if

54:33

you find our voices irritating, we grow endearing over

54:35

time. Perhaps you listened to one of our old

54:37

episodes and decided that we were dumb and immature.

54:39

Well, we've been doing this a while now. We

54:42

have become smarter and more mature,

54:44

and generally nicer to Dan. But

54:46

we are only human, so no

54:48

promises. Find The
