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

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
had some Pentagon today and i just
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
30:41
there is any just picked up Up
30:43
Up Up Up Up. And
30:46

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

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
world sons grown up
38:12

38:19
