R-E-B-A-G 1-0. Oi,

0:40

oi. Now we're into the fun stuff. This

0:42

is a rich tapestry of

0:44

an episode where you can hear both

0:48

the excitement of the end of the project,

0:50

On the Horizon, and two of my voices,

0:52

and also the resentment and the sort

0:54

of negatively geared

0:56

chemistry of reaching

0:59

the end of a large chunk of work.

1:02

It's all done with love and humor, but

1:05

I'm hearing two guys who are, well,

1:09

one of them's me. It's

1:11

a very sing-songy sort of

1:13

episode. It's a bit of sort of,

1:17

we speculate about what would happen if we

1:19

fell out, and even joke about the podcast

1:21

becoming the sole thread of a friendship. There's

1:27

a reference to It's Always Sunny, which is, I

1:29

would say, a testament to the longevity of

1:31

that show. And

1:34

also, huge shout out to David Correios. We describe

1:37

what sounds like a pretty gross and experimental piece of

1:39

comedy he was doing at the time the episode was

1:41

made. Otherwise,

1:44

you know, we're on the home stretch. We're

1:46

looking at, I

1:48

guess, four more episodes. Until

1:52

it's time to be

1:56

called guys. Oh

2:16

Steve Austin, you come

2:19

from Boston,

2:22

but not really,

2:24

cause you're a

2:27

famous Texan. Oh

2:29

Steve Austin, you

2:31

come from Boston,

2:34

but not really,

2:36

cause you're a

2:38

famous Texan. Hello.

2:42

Hi. Hi everybody, it's Tim and

2:45

Guy here from the Worst Idea of All Time

2:47

podcast, where we watch and review grown ups 2

2:49

every week for a year. We've almost done it,

2:51

we're nearly there mate. Four to go, we're

2:53

just at number 48. That's right, 48

2:55

are a very significant number for me Tim. 48

2:58

is the age of Adam Sandler at the time

3:00

of record. 48 also

3:02

represents an average of half

3:04

an hour per podcast. One

3:06

full day, 24 hours

3:09

of discussing grown ups 2. That's

3:12

sad, you want another stat? I did the math

3:14

on this, we've been watching the movie for 3.4

3:17

days, like day and nights. Full

3:21

days. Yeah. Actually it's three

3:23

and a half. Okay, whatever

3:25

man. How much does that suck? Not

3:28

that much. Doesn't it? Yeah it

3:30

does, but look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look,

3:33

look, look. It was a very long watch today. It

3:35

was the longest I think. It was very long,

3:37

and I felt like a lot

3:40

of the actors weren't trying. Yeah,

3:42

I felt that as well. I felt like,

3:44

to use an analogy, I haven't

3:46

watched a Broadway show 48 times in a

3:48

row, but I feel like if you did watch it, no cause

3:50

they do it. So

3:52

it felt like the 48th night for this show

3:54

on Broadway and all the actors, maybe they had

3:56

a big party last night, it was maybe their

3:58

favourite cast member's birthday. and they would have just showed up

4:01

on the stage and we're just like, well we might as well just

4:03

get through this so we can go and

4:05

sleep off this raging hangover I have

4:07

from that dope party we had on a rooftop

4:09

in Soho last night. Yeah, it was like watching

4:11

a matinee today. It was like a, yeah, the

4:14

matinee after a birthday party. The weird vibe was

4:16

that... It was low energy and no one was

4:18

really bringing the noise. But then in turn, Tim,

4:20

I consider this notion while

4:23

watching is you can flip that on its

4:25

head and say that the actor's performance... Yes.

4:29

Well the way we read it is

4:31

a direct mirror of how we're doing.

4:33

Well that makes sense because obviously... So

4:35

the movie... They're not performing for

4:38

us inside the television. No, yeah, so either the

4:40

movie is or is becoming a mirror. Uh

4:43

oh. And I don't think the filmmakers created

4:45

Grown Ups 2. I don't think it

4:48

was intended as a barometer for

4:51

how the audience is feeling. It's

4:53

funny how it works though, isn't it? So

4:55

we've really pushed through a barrier

4:57

there. Did Marie Carey know when

4:59

she was inventing microwaves

5:02

and whatnot? Probably not. I

5:04

don't know a lot about the origins of the microwave. Me neither.

5:08

Pretty impressive though. People always say,

5:11

when are we going to have robots do

5:13

everything for us? You know like Betty on the

5:15

Jetsons. You look at a

5:17

microwave, a dishwasher, an oven, a fridge.

5:21

Yeah. We got them. I

5:23

think what people are waiting for, because of sci-fi

5:25

and TV, is it all to be

5:27

rolled into one all-purpose

5:29

robot. You're right about that. But

5:31

then that's when the robots are becoming probably...

5:34

We're leaning on them too much and we'll forget

5:36

the basic skills which enable us to get through

5:39

a day. And then if technology was to fold

5:41

in on itself and collapse, none

5:43

of us would have the basic life

5:45

skills to survive. You

5:47

ever see WALL-E, the Pixar movie?

5:50

No. It's real. I've got a real... I'll

5:53

tell you what, I could watch the shit

5:55

out of that movie right now. WALL-E is

5:57

so fucking good. It's such a good movie.

6:00

any dialogue in the first half. I don't

6:02

think Pixar's taken a

6:04

bad step yet. Cars too. Yeah that

6:06

is the main blight. I haven't seen

6:08

cars too. I liked cars though. I

6:11

love that Owen Wilson. In Wale. He's so

6:13

happy go lucky. In Wale that's very

6:16

much how the humans are because it's set

6:18

in the future and the humans are terrible.

6:20

They're all just like soft sloth and

6:22

lay pieces of shit floating around on

6:24

these little hovercraft things and they're unable

6:26

to do anything for themselves. It's

6:29

quite awesome but also super bleak. So yeah

6:31

so stop leaning on the people

6:33

who design kitchens to design an

6:35

all purpose kitchen robot. Exactly Betty's not going

6:37

to exist and if she does then that's

6:40

a sign we've gone too far people. We're

6:42

in the golden age of robots so

6:44

just enjoy it. What you don't want is

6:46

sentient robots. This is like you

6:49

know how when the global financial crisis hit and

6:51

everyone said oh the economy shared itself we had

6:53

so many years of good growth everyone was like

6:55

I don't remember it being that good. We're

6:58

in the good times. And you

7:00

don't realise it because you're always

7:02

looking ahead. Why does it always

7:04

seem to go that you don't

7:06

know what you've got till it's

7:08

gone. And Peter Paradise and put

7:10

up a park in life. Ooh.

7:12

Who sings the original? I can't

7:14

remember the Calvin Crozier version. Tracy.

7:18

Not Tracy Chapman. Yeah. No it's not.

7:21

You sure? Yeah I'm sure it's not. So

7:23

growing up too. How about

7:25

that? How about that movie that we

7:28

saw again? You know what I opened up my

7:30

notebook today to take some notes because we don't

7:32

have any beers. Hey good on you. And I

7:34

thought something better happened today. And

7:36

I actually turned into the page

7:38

where it's got the notes from the first

7:40

watch just coincidentally. Do you

7:43

want me to revisit that?

7:45

Just anything that you deem

7:47

interesting. I've just obviously jotted

7:49

down what happens in the

7:52

movie. It's like a chronology.

7:54

Adam Sandler, Immerse, Selma Hayek.

7:57

Space. Kevin James and his stupid

7:59

kids. Chris Rock comma

8:01

poopy dance David

8:04

Spade in mystery son soft

8:06

toy dismemberment three-point system

8:08

smile compliment date Quote

8:10

mark say it's true even if it isn't that's

8:12

amazing that I picked up that John Lovett's quite

8:14

even on the first watch That

8:16

was something great not that amazing and you're

8:19

just what you're doing This is do you

8:21

just this is like anyone who goes

8:23

to a movie and writes down what happens and tells

8:25

other people is if it's interesting It's

8:28

not amazing that you remember to quote the

8:30

first time you watch the movie Not

8:36

really I've got I've got a hearing here that

8:38

says to address an Epson. I think we've reduced

8:40

those What was the movie

8:42

guy saw that he hated and wrote a review

8:45

of online? That was our that

8:47

you walked out of nice and walk out of I

8:49

saw the whole thing. I hate you

8:51

I love you best Cooper. Oh, you do remember. I

8:53

don't think we ever addressed that hey We're

8:56

really trying to get to the finish line You're

9:00

with hated and panacea and Some

9:02

other guy that was found to be a reasonable like

9:05

sketch actor or comedy actor that was off

9:07

the back of her heroes But I mean,

9:10

I remember the cheerleader I remember the movie was based

9:12

on a book by one of the Simpsons writers and

9:14

it was it was I thought it was poorly executed

9:16

at the time, although I tell you what I Mean

9:19

I said it before my perspective on films is

9:21

all the skew now I would fucking heavily sit

9:24

down to a helping of I love you best

9:26

Cooper right now I got so pissed off because

9:28

I watched super bad the other night and I

9:30

fucking love that movie funny But even like something's

9:32

changed about watching that now as a result of

9:35

the repeated grown-ups to watch and what's changed? I

9:37

don't know. I'm kind of like I'm looking for

9:39

all that shit in the background and stuff It

9:41

started to bleed over into other movies. That's

9:43

not good. Nah, man. It's really not It's

9:46

like ruining shit that I actually really love

9:48

now, which is uncool to be

9:50

expected though Surely do you know what?

9:52

I noticed this watch that did you notice that there are

9:54

71 13 inch sinks? 71

9:57

13 inch seats on a standard school bus I

10:00

didn't notice that. How does 71 work? I guess

10:02

the bench at the back is like 5. How

10:05

does that go? 3, 3?

10:08

I don't know. 71 seems like

10:10

a lot. That seems like a shitload. How many people do

10:12

you get on each one of those? They're

10:14

big, those yellow school buses though. When

10:18

I was in Toronto, I took a lot of

10:20

photos of their school buses because they're the yellow

10:22

school buses that you see when you watch TV

10:24

and movies as a child in New Zealand. Over

10:26

here we've got like red buses and blue buses

10:28

but they're all just a boring regular bus shape.

10:30

There's no panache. Conversely,

10:33

I imagine if an American came over here, they

10:35

might take photographs of our school buses because they're

10:37

like, whoa, look at these funny little buses. Gosh,

10:39

this country's backwards. They'd think we're so quaint. What

10:42

did you notice in the movie this week,

10:45

Tom? Stone Cold Steve Austin's performance because he

10:47

doesn't blink almost ever in the movie. And

10:49

the first thing that he's in the entire

10:51

time, he blinks precisely once as far as

10:54

I could tell. One

10:56

time. That's a commitment,

10:58

bro. And it reminded me of I was reading

11:00

something recently that Haley Joel Osman went

11:03

to Steven Spielberg when he was an AI and he

11:05

said, Steven, do

11:08

you know what I reckon about robots? I

11:10

reckon they don't blink. And apparently you do

11:12

not see Haley Joel Osman blink once in

11:14

that movie. And he was

11:16

like a tiny child when he did that. And he

11:18

came to the director with that offer. Was that a

11:20

reveal? What do you mean? Like,

11:22

well, was it, is it none that Haley Joel Osman

11:24

is a robot in that whole film? Oh, yeah, I

11:26

think. Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's like the whole I

11:28

haven't seen AI, which is crazy because I love robots.

11:31

But this is a robot, a

11:33

robot heavy episode. You mean robots? I,

11:36

one of my old flatmates, a guy called Matt Frost,

11:40

looked, looked like Haley Joel Osman

11:42

all grown up. And we're going to say it

11:44

looks like a robot. And we used to go

11:46

to, we'd go to sort of bars

11:48

with him and stuff and begin to walk up to the

11:51

front of the line. And one

11:53

of us would go with him and say, hey, I'm

11:55

here with Haley Joel Osman. He's just visiting the country on

11:57

a film sheet. And we'd get

11:59

into bars. That's so funny, because Hailey Joel Osman,

12:01

growing up, looks like... And

12:03

this is rough, because he's super funny and talented,

12:05

but like a big baby. Like a

12:08

really... like one of those adult grown-up babies. Yeah, this guy,

12:10

Matt Frost, he's got a bit of a baby face. Have

12:12

you seen him in Always Sunny, where he like plays Max?

12:14

No. Fuck, it's funny. Good God.

12:17

It's good stuff. Um... Oh

12:20

yeah, I wanted to... Principal Tardio,

12:22

he's writing a letter on his

12:24

screen. Um... During

12:27

the last day of school. And I really

12:29

want to know what it is. And I don't

12:31

think the resolution's high enough for me to like

12:33

zoom in, in the background and figure it out.

12:35

But you can definitely tell by the way that

12:37

the text is laid out, that it's a letter.

12:39

And I wonder if it's a letter of resignation

12:41

to the superintendent of the district. Do you think

12:43

that's something that they've thought of and grown-ups too?

12:45

Because I do feel like the people who... We've

12:47

said it before, the set-dresses in the props department,

12:49

really put a lot of effort into it. So I feel like

12:51

maybe they were sneaking in. Because it's not

12:54

like... Arrested Development is a

12:56

good example of... All of

12:58

the newspaper articles and stuff, and then

13:00

passing, and everything that is like... Like

13:02

just loaded... Mitch... Hurwitz... Hurwitz...

13:06

Just packs that thing full of

13:09

eggs. It would be nice if they

13:11

had... I mean, I

13:13

guess we would know by now. Yeah, there's the

13:15

blue footprints, bro. Yeah. Principal

13:18

Tardio's blue footprints from walking out of his

13:20

car... Do you know, actually, do you know

13:22

what really gives me a kick, is when

13:24

you lay into some expert level grown-ups who

13:27

do shit like that, and you're like, yeah,

13:29

bro, we got our Easter eggs, the blue

13:31

footprints. And then, do you know what we

13:33

do for free, out of respect for you,

13:36

the listener, is we share these hidden gems.

13:38

So when you're at a cocktail party, you

13:40

can pass yourself off as a preeminent grown-ups

13:42

to expert. Which, while I'm not a particularly

13:44

lucrative industry right now, surely

13:46

there's going to be a market for it at some point in

13:49

the future. Yeah, hey Richard, what a delicious Tom

13:51

Collins. By the way, did you realise that when

13:53

Bean is reading the menu to the ice cream

13:55

parlour, he's holding it upside down? Bet you didn't.

13:57

You only will crack that on like the fifth

13:59

watch. We had a fan Richard Ross about that

14:01

like it was an easter egg and I appreciate it. It's not

14:04

an easter egg. It's a big gag. Yeah like good on you

14:06

for getting the patch but it's a very sign post. Also

14:08

an exciting news, we've had

14:11

a wonderful designer has

14:14

somehow found the drinking rules, written

14:16

them into this beautiful piece of text. I'm

14:19

just going to source her name for you.

14:22

It's from those like really cool typography posters.

14:24

Yeah. She's based out

14:26

of Brooklyn, New York City where they

14:28

paint murals of Biggie. I don't

14:30

understand how anyone

14:33

got the rules out of that episode though. I don't

14:35

remember the episode and I'm not sure I've listened to

14:37

it since we recorded it. Pauline Vasiliadis.

14:39

Pauline Vasiliadis. We'll

14:43

share it on the Facebook page. It's

14:46

really lovely. It's cool. So

14:48

for those of you who have been hanging out to play the

14:50

drinking game, it's going to

14:52

happen soon. Oh you should do it.

14:56

Maybe, I don't know if this is cool with

14:58

you. What's your name again? Pauline. Pauline.

15:01

Put it on your wall. Pauline. Pauline.

15:04

Pauline. I'm

15:07

begging you please don't take my

15:10

man. Mike Cyrus was

15:12

a really good like before she, have

15:14

you seen that? She was a really good cover of

15:17

Jolyne. It's probably the best thing she's ever recorded that

15:19

I've heard and I've heard it all. Right up there

15:21

with Paddy in the USA. Yeah man. Paddy,

15:24

do you reckon with Paddy and Miley

15:26

having caught us? Right now.

15:29

Well, namely, do you reckon they're doing it right now?

15:31

And secondly, do you reckon he goes, Paddy in the

15:33

USA? And she's got like a

15:36

USA tattoo on her hoover? I'd be

15:38

terrified to have sex with Miley Cyrus. You're

15:41

going to say Patrick Schwartz at that point. Well, kind

15:43

of either. But I

15:45

just think it'd be a really scary proposition. It

15:47

would be, yeah, I'd be intimidated. I'd

15:49

be very intimidated. Because, yeah, her public

15:52

persona now is so out there. So

15:54

sexually charged. Yeah. I

15:56

feel like she'd... I actually really respect... She'd rip your

15:58

genitals out. I respect what we do. Miley's done

16:00

with her fuck man.

16:02

We are really dancing around Granite soon. You

16:08

said a very poignant thing in the movie

16:10

when I was talking about how the movie's

16:12

a reflection of us which was we're looking

16:14

in the abyss. In the abyss is looking

16:16

back into us. Yeah. Yeah

16:19

dude, I just don't give a

16:21

flying fucking cunt of a shit

16:24

anymore. If it was up to

16:26

me, I tell you what,

16:28

I wouldn't have watched it this many times and... Do

16:30

you want to see the puddle of

16:33

goo that my brain has turned into while

16:35

watching this movie? As one of the observations

16:37

I wrote down in my notebook is

16:40

Americans are good at basketball.

16:43

That was the entire thought. Jesus

16:46

mate. And like obviously,

16:48

they're the home of the NBA, they're

16:50

the Olympic and world champs. One

16:53

of the national sports mates. Yeah. So

16:55

like there's baseball. Well, one thing that's always sort of,

16:57

I don't know if it irks me but I've found

16:59

curious about Americans is like, you win the Super Bowl

17:02

and you're the world champs. Yeah. And

17:04

like I'm not saying that those football teams aren't the

17:06

best football teams in the world but it's like, a

17:09

fucking horse shit for you guys to call the

17:11

world champs where it's only competed for in America.

17:14

It's the same with baseball, they call it the

17:16

World Series. They're the only country that can hit

17:18

it. When you're fucking head out of your asshole

17:20

and like call it the American Champs. I

17:23

don't know, look, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. We've brought

17:25

this up in a previous episode but there's also

17:28

the whole rugby thing, how they're the world champs

17:30

of rugby. Because they competed in one

17:32

Olympics games and won it when rugby was in the

17:34

Olympic games and like the Twinkies. Oh, so what, are

17:36

they the defending Olympic champions of rugby? Yeah. Yeah,

17:39

that's pretty cool. But like full credit and there are other

17:41

countries there. Yeah. Anyway, I noticed

17:43

that they're good at basketball. Like there's not

17:45

a lot of it. I know. Because there's

17:47

a few, in the background of shot, there's quite a

17:49

few people like in the gym they're shooting

17:52

some hoops. Down the ice cream parlor there's a

17:54

little game of half court going on in the

17:56

background. Not a lot of missed baskets. Yeah.

18:00

it is a movie. Yeah

18:02

but like think about it they

18:04

don't care whether or not the shot in the bit

18:07

in the background of shot they don't care about whether

18:09

or not the basket is made or not so they're

18:11

just gonna use the footage in which the actors gave

18:13

the best performance. Don't take this the wrong way but

18:15

I don't fucking care about what you're talking about right

18:17

now. I'll

18:21

finish the point okay which

18:23

is just that so statistically speaking

18:26

like for I guess maybe they missed all the other

18:28

shots and all the other takes but I think that's

18:30

really unlikely I think you got to give it up

18:32

for the extras who are playing basketball on this movie.

18:35

Alright good on you well

18:37

done. Hey cool bro hey yeah it's really fun

18:39

doing this podcast with you bro. Hey I'm having

18:41

a really fucking good time spending like literally not

18:43

even just to record the podcast now but trying

18:46

to organize this trip. I've had a really good

18:48

time spending like three hours of every fucking day

18:50

of my life with you all

18:52

built around grown-ups too bro. Love it up bro

18:55

there's a lot of people wish they could spend

18:57

three hours a day with me every day. I

19:01

honestly couldn't name one. Yeah you yeah

19:04

look I'm sorry let's not turn on each

19:06

other. It's

19:09

gonna be a long four weeks if we do

19:11

it. What happens if we have a falling out?

19:14

Nothing good eh? Nothing

19:16

good at all. And like the one thing

19:18

that's keeping us together is grown-ups

19:21

too. Like a terrible marriage and

19:23

grown-ups too without a kid. We're doing it for the kid.

19:27

But that's yeah I mean because that's

19:29

then we've crossed over into something completely

19:31

different wherein the the

19:34

podcast the movie has gone from like sort

19:37

of a thing that we we

19:40

dislike I guess you could say together or to

19:43

the one thing the one

19:45

thread of friendship that still unites us

19:47

and then maybe from there we can

19:49

build through the falling out. I think

19:52

what we need to do is put this

19:55

little baby to rest or get couples counseling.

19:58

It'd be pretty funny if we went to couples counseling. So how

20:01

long have you been together? 48

20:03

weeks? Tim hardly looks at me

20:06

during. So

20:13

you had a point before. What I

20:15

was going to say Guy is that I couldn't help

20:17

but notice in the film this week. Just

20:21

to bring us back on track a little bit as to why

20:23

we're here. That Kevin James' car

20:25

is the smokiest car I've ever seen in

20:28

a movie. His wife's car. He

20:30

drives a truck but we need a point on the

20:32

way to the car wash you mean. Yeah. It's

20:34

just like and it's not a cold day. It's definitely

20:36

not steam or

20:39

whatever. It's fucking smoke. The

20:42

dude's a fucking auto mechanic. Like

20:45

the fuck man. There's something

20:47

wrong with the car. Have a look at

20:50

it. Big time. It's your wife's

20:52

car. Yeah. Your kids are around it. They're breathing

20:54

in the fumes. The fucking exhaust is coming out

20:56

of that thing. The town is bad for the

20:58

environment and what he doesn't appreciate over there in

21:00

standing Connecticut. It's all these greenhouse gases he's pumping

21:02

into the atmosphere. That's just widening

21:04

the hole in the ozone layer over little old

21:06

New Zealand. When I go outside and I have

21:08

to slap on SPF 50 fucking 8 o'clock in

21:10

the morning. You piece of shit. That's what people

21:12

don't realise man. That hole in the ozone layer

21:14

is directly above New Zealand. I

21:17

told them Canadians about it. And

21:20

they, like when I was at some sushi restaurant

21:22

in Montreal, I don't know how I was eating

21:24

with these people. They were, I think they were

21:28

rich. And I go, I was telling them about the hole

21:30

in the ozone layer and they were like, how

21:32

many people live in New Zealand? I was like about

21:34

4 million. They go 4 million? We can

21:37

just put you all in Alberta.

21:40

I don't want to move to

21:42

Alberta. I want to stay

21:44

here. You got the real problem solver. We've

21:46

got like cold shellfish

21:49

like mussels. I bet you don't

21:51

have that now better. It's too cold for them. I don't

21:53

think you're ever further than like 4 hours from the beach

21:56

in New Zealand. That's all I love about

21:58

this country. You always buy our beach. You

22:00

know something comforting about that. I love

22:02

I think it's in Stepbrothers

22:05

when wolf Farrell's wearing a t-shirt which

22:07

says life's the beach That's

22:10

classic. There's a second bit to that It's

22:12

not like in Joe Deere's like life's the garden take

22:14

it No, it's just life's the beach and maybe there's

22:16

a picture of a beach on the t-shirt I

22:19

feel like it's like a reddish pinkish country and

22:21

it's maybe yellow the printers in yellow That's

22:24

how if I was yeah If

22:27

I was to wear it those days

22:29

the color scheme, I think I'd go for okay. All

22:32

right, mate I didn't even look that good and read another

22:35

thing I noticed about the movie oh We've

22:38

got to do like a shining light at some

22:40

point. I got nothing for that worse

22:43

than that, bro I've got a shining light aka

22:45

the only remaining note in my book.

22:48

Well, I'm gonna try to I Gotta

22:51

go on a tour. We gotta throw a party.

22:53

I feel like we've bitten

22:55

off more than we can choose steam

22:58

I'm out of Energy

23:00

I'm out of what were you gonna say go

23:02

on. Okay my shining light

23:05

I'm very appropriate in it is

23:07

the fact that Chris

23:10

Rock so Kevin James is

23:12

obviously just chucking pollution into the atmosphere

23:14

doesn't give a shit Chris rocks on

23:17

board That dude at

23:19

dinnertime in his own family house

23:21

is drinking out of a plastic

23:23

disposable cup How fucking

23:26

lazy are you bro that you're not washing glasses?

23:29

That is pretty bad a dishwasher

23:31

like fuck Yeah

23:35

Come on It's

23:37

a weird it's weird for that to be the shining

23:40

light and that It

23:42

doesn't feel like a moment that you enjoyed

23:44

I enjoyed it this week because I hadn't

23:46

I think I'd noticed it but hadn't consciously

23:49

spent any time thinking about Okay, here's

23:51

a funny thing that you're saying also while watching the

23:53

movie is That

23:57

if you if you were to

23:59

notice boom and shot at

24:01

this point in the project that

24:04

your world would come crumbling down. Absolutely. Can

24:07

you extrapolate on that for us? Well I've

24:09

been looking for so long now for either

24:12

to see a lighting guy or

24:14

a boom to just be

24:16

hanging from the top of shot but

24:19

it's not there man. I've looked. It's

24:22

nowhere to be seen. There are

24:24

like a few little glitches with the film

24:27

we've talked about a lot of them over

24:29

the course of the podcast. Little continuity errors

24:31

and things but there's no

24:34

big... you don't see any

24:36

crew in shot. You

24:38

don't see any like lighting rig and you don't see a

24:40

boom but if I if I

24:43

saw it this this this watch of it it would

24:46

just fucking blow my mind. Would it sort of

24:48

like... Because it would be like it just got

24:50

put in for me this week which

24:53

doesn't make any sense. It would undo your

24:55

previous 47. I legitimately feel like I've gone

24:57

insane and not in a fun way but

25:00

in a depressing way. I feel

25:02

like I've gone bonkers. I

25:05

don't know anything

25:07

anymore and four more

25:10

watches just seems brutal. Four.

25:14

Four. Is that right?

25:16

It's a small number. Four. What's

25:19

a bigger number Tim? If I put these

25:21

two numbers on the scales if I put

25:23

48 on one scale and four on

25:25

the other which

25:28

scale and and

25:30

there's 48 helpings of grown-ups too or

25:33

four helpings of grown-ups too which scale

25:35

would you choose? But I've already eaten

25:37

the 48 so I'm like vomiting. I'm

25:40

like I'm sick with grown-ups too. It's

25:42

infected my veins. I've got like diabetes

25:44

type grown-ups too and and now you're

25:46

saying... I know

25:48

you've had a lot. I know you've

25:51

had four dozen helpings but bro all

25:53

you need is a third dozen more

25:55

helpings. Oh yeah I guess the

25:57

tragic thing about the the situation you

25:59

find. yourself in is that the

26:01

antidote for all of this grown-ups too

26:04

you've consumed is ironically just

26:07

a little bit more grown-ups too. Nothing

26:10

works like that. There's like homeopathy

26:12

logic. That works like this podcast.

26:14

Like the podcast works like that.

26:17

If a snake bites you, the

26:19

cure is not more venom. You

26:22

know? I'm up to the fucking eyeballs

26:24

in grown-ups too and I can't take it anymore. And

26:26

I just want to squeeze a little bit more into

26:28

you. The other thing

26:30

is that the joy in this project now

26:32

is not obviously it never was to watch

26:34

the movie but it's in watching you be

26:37

miserable. Cheers bro. Well

26:39

it's, I'm like as

26:41

uncomfortable with that thought as you are but

26:43

like the only thing which I really get out

26:46

of the project at this point is watching

26:48

you in visible discomfort.

26:51

You are the definition of

26:53

schadenfreude. What's

26:55

schadenfreude mean? It's like German for

26:58

sour grapes taking pleasure in other

27:00

people's misery. But

27:02

yeah, but it's quite a specific kind of

27:04

schadenfreude. I

27:07

didn't know I had this. You've

27:09

discovered a darkness in you, you didn't know that

27:12

you possessed? My shining light. It's kind of like

27:14

in Lord of the Rings, the One Ring. One

27:17

ring to rule the world. You're wielding a lot of power

27:19

and you're discovering little evil parts of yourself. Do

27:22

you think this project is deriving me as a

27:24

person? I think it's making you a

27:26

worse person. Do you think specifically

27:28

within the world of the podcast or

27:31

do you think in my

27:33

general life? Oh no,

27:35

you as a person. You as a complete person.

27:37

The whole package. Yeah. Not

27:39

just Guy Montgomery from The Worst Hero of

27:42

All Time but Guy Montgomery from Charlotte and

27:44

Stephen. Guy Alexander, Halifax Montgomery, born

27:46

in Christchurch in 1987. I was born in

27:48

Wellington in 1988. Do you even know me

27:50

bro? No,

27:52

you've lost credibility. Took a few stabs. My

27:55

shining light Is in

27:58

the supermarket, in the background. Shot

28:00

there is a milk carton. With.

28:03

The. Word shag on it.

28:05

Which means that they the brand of milk

28:08

either end of Santa Connecticut or and all

28:10

of America called shag. There.

28:13

Is a fucking dope name.

28:15

This remote company. That's

28:18

also kind of like. Paradoxical.

28:20

Because China is one of the

28:22

last thing I think of. When.

28:25

I think of Milk with are dead second

28:27

most last night and wasn't play them. Check.

28:30

With though the aftermath of it. Went.

28:33

To the I'll gag. Hey as iced

28:35

tea or whether they checked a lot

28:37

of ice ten. Author was that we

28:39

shouldn't transmits who into comedy Gag in the

28:42

guys s was some basically light and

28:44

love the newspaper in a bowl and

28:46

the center. And prior to the

28:48

show started his drunk like too late

28:50

as as what I thought was most

28:52

evidently i stay emphasis gonna vomit and

28:54

a nice didn't know did a few

28:56

online as first and then a said

28:58

sorry i'm not feeling very well I

29:01

29:03

drank two ladies of ice tea. Granted.

29:05

That he started China. Vomit.

29:09

And. Then he couldn't. And

29:11

then he said this who make it better and

29:13

put on come on Eileen by Dicks his midnight

29:15

run as and proceed to spend about a minute

29:17

with his hand on his mouth hear any dominant

29:19

a little bit and to the ball and any

29:21

trying to the game but but and when he

29:23

tried out at to when I drank it a

29:26

shot at the devil cari I will drag your

29:28

he put on happy by for ral a thought

29:30

he was gonna vomit a lot more than he

29:32

did. Anyway, that's neither

29:34

here nor there. That. Was my

29:36

signing. Lot of guys like. I'm.

29:39

Not going to sing the song to that guy. I

29:41

don't have it in May. Which.

29:43

Song. Is A

29:45

A The. Cinema.

29:48

Per per per per per

29:50

per per per per per

29:52

per is worth party time.

29:55

Petty Schwartz a Valium. And.

29:57

Now he doesn't. Say.

30:00

The party so had. Not

30:02

just trying to qualify the low energy. I.

30:04

Think we're we're at is more of a lithium

30:06

kind of a vibe. What? Of Lithium

30:09

Day ever when you're like really

30:11

I enter and a very bad

30:13

way with depression. And I think

30:15

it on it is that number on the periodic table.

30:17

Yeah, it's an element. Yet. As

30:20

a lazy yeah, I'm so so I added

30:22

Saturday night as glittering I hit it is

30:24

I bush some yeah, but there is a

30:26

common. Goal

30:28

but is on the senses. Cover

30:30

that isn't. Margarine.

30:34

Or just ah but what I think I was than

30:37

of on a song but again that's neither here nor

30:39

there. Would. As here or

31:33

he have given us any money in

31:35

the image I got. Thank you. It

31:38

is but as easily of us busy we have

31:40

but it has been. Probably

31:42

one of the most overwhelming experiences

31:44

of my life to see us

31:47

launch. Stopping. That plays a

31:49

silly little in Be Go Go. Ah,

31:52

And just the. The

31:55

outreach to the insidious enthusiasm and

31:57

the consumption of it on a.

32:00

even talking it's just been

32:02

insane people have approached it with a

32:04

lot of gusto they've just been throwing

32:06

money at his hand over first and

32:08

it's it's just lovely it's really lovely

32:10

it's thanks it's fucking awesome we're gonna

32:14

we'll make a little thing you'd something

32:16

video of us just saying thanks barreling the camera

32:18

having to do I don't know if it can

32:20

be today because so you

32:22

can feel it so you can feel the

32:24

things I feel blue that's okay

32:27

okay be happy

32:30

people have now officially paid by

32:33

that I mean by proxy

32:35

I guess they've paid for you to feel

32:37

blue hmm I

32:40

can take no joy in that right my

32:42

paddy shorts party time from the movie actually

32:44

is in one of the bits he's the

32:46

party scene with all the frat boys he's

32:48

standing next to Jared Sandler nephew of Adam

32:51

and and they both don't look a

32:53

hundred percent confident in their choices of actors and I

32:55

thought hashtag

32:58

nepotism how are ya what

33:02

what do you mean like

33:04

well you know they both can't act in the both

33:06

in the movie as a result of who they're related

33:08

to is that what you're getting it yeah okay cool

33:11

all right it's an interesting one for a party time

33:14

it's a little bleak but then again I had a pretty

33:16

fucked up one from a shining light it's old-school bro yeah

33:19

the throwback if JFK was president

33:21

now he would not be like

33:24

revered like he was what's

33:27

your point sir JFK

33:30

key JFK was just he

33:34

was like he played the president card

33:36

pretty hard with

33:38

his life you know oh yeah yeah

33:40

yeah he was getting out there shaking

33:43

hands certainly was kissing

33:45

baby kissing baby kissing babes kissing babes

33:47

that's what I'm saying and what I'm

33:49

saying is that it's

33:51

old school in the same way you

33:54

know just getting you getting Patty and Jared

33:57

in the film with its old school it's

33:59

just like Look, you know, I

34:01

know this isn't gonna be completely popular but we're

34:04

doing it old-school Right.

34:06

I I really feel like we're

34:08

fucking meandering down a track to nowhere then lead

34:11

fucking movie. He's pretty fucking

34:57

injured His

34:59

arms are like the touch down.

35:02

Yeah, you've heard this what happened

35:04

to him is this what happened? I mean,

35:06

tell me are you familiar

35:08

with the harsh? Show me show

35:10

me how you do that trick

35:13

the one that makes me scream

35:15

She said the one that makes

35:17

me laugh. She said throw her

35:19

arms around my head Show

35:22

me how you do it and

35:24

I promise you I promise that

35:26

I'll run away with you Would

35:29

like the cure? No, I don't

35:32

actually know did you like it then? Yeah,

35:34

I did the your version of it I

35:36

do know what the half seagull is. It's

35:38

probably the greatest bird of all time. Yeah,

35:40

I tragically I think because when the the

35:42

moldy ate all of the mower, which was

35:44

a big land mammal a land-based bird Can

35:48

it be a mammal? You

35:51

know that we're all ungulates Anyway,

35:55

so the half seagull was made extinct

35:57

because humans ate all of its a

35:59

mower food And the mower was the

36:01

only thing big enough to sustain it as a

36:03

food source because the half seagull was so fucking

36:05

massive. A mower for reference is like, I don't

36:08

know if it's twice the size of an ostrich.

36:10

They grew to something like 3 meters tall when

36:12

they were adults. Mowers a big bird. Big old

36:14

bird. Couldn't fly. A half seagull

36:16

ate that. Ate that. That's how big this

36:19

bird is. So apparently

36:21

the half seagull if it was around

36:23

today would be a genuine threat to

36:25

humans. Hahaha. It would pick

36:27

up kids, right? Just how intense

36:29

that bird is and it was endemic to New Zealand. You

36:33

can only get it here as far as we know. Anywho,

36:36

my point being in the first movie

36:39

there's a half seagull. Okay?

36:42

Steve Buscemi has

36:44

twins in the first movie. Twin babies. Twin

36:47

baby boys. And their newborns and

36:49

he's so delighted when they're first

36:51

born that he runs outside of

36:53

the delivery room with them like

36:55

Rafiki and Lion King

36:58

and holds them up in the air, one in each

37:00

arm. Just delighted.

37:02

Ready to show the world his

37:04

beautiful new baby boys with Sherry

37:07

Terry. Correct. No, his first wife. Different

37:10

wife. Yep, different wife. And

37:12

a half seagull comes and in

37:14

each talon clutches one of the

37:16

babies, grabs them out of Steve

37:18

Buscemi's arms, flies away,

37:20

never to be seen again. Steve

37:23

Buscemi is so psychologically

37:25

scarred by this event that

37:28

he can't move his arms out of that position.

37:31

So whilst a lot of people

37:33

think it was a physical injury

37:36

that put him in that locked

37:38

position, it's actually psychological torment

37:40

of seeing his first

37:43

and only newborn children taken away

37:45

from him by a half seagull.

37:48

And it caused such a horrific sort

37:50

of a post-traumatic stress. Sort

37:54

of a muscle tissue presumably holding your arms up

37:56

like that as well. It actually affected his nervous

37:58

system which meant he... You only had 40%

38:00

feeling in this body For

38:03

a long time. Well, dude, that was that

38:06

was a good one. Thank you. Now. It's

38:08

time for us to leave guy back into the

38:10
