[0:38] It was for our Teen Wolf live show
[0:40] There was a reason we were all teen wolves
[0:42] I should have worn that shirt today
[0:44] That's the shirt I should have worn today
[0:46] He's done a bunch of illustrations
[0:48] For a friend of the show, Nathan Rabin
[0:50] And a friend of the show, We Hate Movies
[0:53] And Greatest Generation
[0:56] A lot of friends of the show.
[0:57] We have friends, guys.
[0:59] Anyway, Felipe.
[1:00] Well, the show has friends, Dan.
[1:01] Thank you.
[1:02] Say more about your work.
[1:03] What would you like to highlight?
[1:06] Hey, guys.
[1:06] How are you?
[1:07] Well, yeah.
[1:08] Hello.
[1:10] That's part of how we talk.
[1:11] Dan didn't even explain this is a mini episode.
[1:13] We're not watching a movie today.
[1:14] Instead, we're going to talk about what we want.
[1:16] But yeah, Felipe, tell us what are your career highlights that you want people to run out and buy?
[1:21] I mean, number one right now is being here today with you guys.
[1:24] Oh, that's very sweet of you.
[1:25] Number two is I'm currently drawing the upcoming Toxic Avenger comic
[1:32] for Ahoy Comics, written by Matt Bors, current writer.
[1:37] And I'm drawing the next miniseries,
[1:40] which is the Toxic Avenger versus the Noxious Offender.
[1:44] And recently I also did an official sequel to Blues Brothers,
[1:49] written by, you know, the Anarchist's Daughter,
[1:54] Judy Belushi's song.
[1:57] It came out from Z2 Comics.
[1:59] It's an actual, you know, official sequel.
[2:04] It happens before Blues Brothers 2000.
[2:08] So, you know, Jake's still alive in the story.
[2:11] And those are my two, like, most recent credits.
[2:13] And what I'm doing right now is the Toxic book.
[2:17] And I was looking at your website before we got on,
[2:20] And I saw that you also did coloring for a book that was conceived by Jason Derulo, who was Rum Tum Tugger in Cats.
[2:31] Yes.
[2:32] That was very exciting.
[2:33] You have a Cats association.
[2:35] A Cats connection.
[2:36] Yes.
[2:37] It's a Cats connection.
[2:39] He wrote it and I colored it.
[2:42] I apologize.
[2:43] I have not read the Blues Brothers book yet, but I've heard it's really good.
[2:46] I've been hearing actually really great things about the Blues Brothers single book.
[2:49] Thank you.
[2:49] So I'm looking forward to reading that.
[2:50] Uh, any, any Blues Brothers material that does not have a certain director attached to it is all, all the more attractive to me.
[2:59] Now, which one?
[3:00] Uh, the one who directed Blues Brothers.
[3:02] Roman Polanski?
[3:03] I mean, that also would be a problem.
[3:05] Um, but you, uh, you were kind enough to, uh, share with us the first two issues of the new Toxic Avenger book.
[3:12] And it's a really fun book.
[3:14] I, uh, I enjoyed it so much.
[3:15] And I have a, just personally, I have a mixed history with Troma products.
[3:20] Uh, sometimes I see them and I'm like, this is so much fun.
[3:23] And sometimes I see them and I'm like, this is not for me.
[3:25] This is a little bit too much.
[3:26] And I feel like the, the, the writing and the art both are like right in that sweet
[3:31] spot where it is gross, but it's also really fun and it's really exciting and funny and
[3:36] like genuinely like touching and appealing.
[3:39] And I was, I was saying before the recording, there's a, there's a panel in the first issue
[3:42] where there's like a, like a guy who works at a convenience store, a grocery store, and
[3:46] he's just been killed and his guts are ripped out and he's hanging on the shelves.
[3:49] And I was like, you know what?
[3:51] This should be a horrific image,
[3:53] but there's something kind of fun and funny
[3:55] and like a little adorable about it.
[3:57] I was like, this is the best way you could draw somebody
[4:00] with their guts ripped out just right there on the panel.
[4:03] And I think it's really hitting that sweet spot so nicely
[4:06] of where you want Troma stuff to be,
[4:09] where it is, it's pushing the boundaries,
[4:11] but it's pushing the boundaries in a way that is fun,
[4:14] fun and meaningful, you know?
[4:15] So I think you're doing, it's just really,
[4:17] it looks great.
[4:18] It looks great.
[4:18] are you doing the coloring on it as well no the the just the line work the coloring is by lee
[4:23] lowridge who's a notorious colorist uh within my community of you know comic artists he's he's he's
[4:32] not famous he's just famous and uh okay yeah yeah just it just uses the blood of their victims in
[4:38] the in the in the art it looks um it all looks really great you know the end uh like the i think
[4:45] It's the best that Toxie has looked, that includes the movies, I'm going to say.
[4:49] Thank you so much.
[4:50] Excellent work with that.
[4:51] Well, I'm glad you brought it back to the Toxic Avenger because, as Elliot referred to before,
[4:56] this is a mini episode of the Flophouse podcast on our so-called main episodes.
[5:03] We watch a bad movie and then we talk about it.
[5:06] But on these minis, we sort of do whatever we want, usually movie-related, not always.
[5:11] But in this case, yeah, we're going to be talking about movies and Toxie.
[5:16] Toxie is, of course, one of cinema's great mutants.
[5:20] And so this is going to be a mutant-themed mini.
[5:25] And I'm going to return us to those infernal goofs in a segment I like to call,
[5:32] Look out! The goofs are mutating!
[5:36] What I like is so many segment titles try to be plays on popular phrases or pre-existing titles,
[5:43] and this one is not.
[5:44] I like that about it.
[5:45] Well, maybe you'll like this.
[5:46] It's sponsored by Orieta's Mute Taters, the only potatoes absolutely guaranteed not to talk.
[5:54] Wait a minute.
[5:54] Aren't all potatoes mute?
[5:56] Sure, in an ideal world.
[5:58] But are you willing to take that chance?
[6:00] Orida's Mute Taters are the only tater brand brave enough to expressly guarantee your potatoes will not scream when you bite into them.
[6:08] Keep it safe.
[6:09] Keep it Orida's.
[6:10] I like there's a little call and response there, both from Dan.
[6:14] Like a little bit of back and forth.
[6:15] It was almost like the two sides of Dan's personality were talking to each other.
[6:20] Okay.
[6:21] The two bears that are inside of Dan were having conversations about potatoes.
[6:24] I'm like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Orida?
[6:27] I don't know.
[6:28] I'm working on it.
[6:30] So how this is going to work is I'm going to read you a goof from a movie, a mutant-related movie.
[6:37] And these are movie goofs, but they're not necessarily goofy movies.
[6:41] No, this is not from a goofy movie.
[6:45] Because the characters in the goofy movie, they are mutants, right?
[6:48] Like they're mutant dogs in a future where humans have gone extinct.
[6:51] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[6:52] Into a human-like form.
[6:53] Either they are mutants or Pluto is a mutant.
[6:55] One of those, you know.
[6:57] Oh, that's true, yeah.
[6:58] Could go the other way.
[6:59] They can't both be normal.
[7:00] One of them has to be a mutant.
[7:02] Yeah.
[7:03] We're going to see if you can guess what movie I'm talking about.
[7:07] These are all mutant-related films.
[7:09] For this, though, I am excluding X-Men-style superhero mutants.
[7:13] Thank fuck.
[7:14] Sticking with more traditional mutants.
[7:17] Traditional mutants?
[7:18] You know, the kind that Grandma used to make.
[7:22] And then once revealed.
[7:24] In her creature factory.
[7:25] Yeah, she would take them out, leave them on the windowsill.
[7:29] Grandma was Rick Baker.
[7:30] Yeah, yeah.
[7:31] Oh, I forgot to mention my grandma was the high evolutionary.
[7:33] Yeah, yeah.
[7:35] Once revealed, I'm going to ask your opinion on the movie, just as a movie and as a mutant movie specifically.
[7:43] You know, so we can, you know, have a little chatter, not just like play a game and make people listen to us play a game.
[7:50] I don't know.
[7:51] People like people playing games.
[7:52] There's a whole thing called Twitch that's all about it.
[7:55] I know.
[7:56] People do love playing games.
[7:57] I don't understand.
[7:58] There's so much about the modern internet.
[8:00] I'm like, I'm such an old man these days.
[8:03] There's things that I just don't understand.
[8:04] What happened to websites?
[8:07] How come no one goes to GeoCities anymore?
[8:10] I was talking to Audrey.
[8:11] Where's the angel fire?
[8:12] Who put that on?
[8:13] There are no rings anymore.
[8:15] Yeah, well, where are the web rings?
[8:17] Well, I was talking to Audrey about this whole school of TikTok or Reel
[8:22] where it's just like, we have clipped a bit of audio
[8:26] and we're lip syncing to it for a moment.
[8:29] And what we're doing is not necessarily funny or interesting,
[8:32] but it exists.
[8:34] And there's so many of these.
[8:36] And I'm like, why does this, why does this happen?
[8:38] And Audrey like offered me all these like perfectly good explanations.
[8:41] And I'm like, yeah, but like, but why?
[8:44] Why would anyone possibly care to watch this?
[8:47] Well, as a hot girl on the internet,
[8:49] I think it's because, like, I play upon, you know, the thirst of all my thirsty fans.
[8:56] Dan, I think you're looking at things with a very 20th century idea of what entertainment is, which is that entertainment is the thing that entertains you.
[9:04] Something enjoyable.
[9:05] Exactly.
[9:07] In the 21st century, entertainment is just a thing that happens on a screen.
[9:12] It's short enough that you don't have to think about it, but it's long enough that it distracts you from the pain that is life.
[9:18] And so it doesn't really need – if anything –
[9:20] But it's causing more pain, Elliot.
[9:22] It's secretly causing more pain.
[9:23] No, no, no. Long-term pain. Long-term pain.
[9:24] It's something that you can enjoy when you're going from one job to another job in the gig economy.
[9:31] Now, here's the word – that situation is great.
[9:33] The word I want to pinpoint there is enjoy.
[9:35] Enjoyment is not what entertainment is about anymore.
[9:37] Distraction is what entertainment is about.
[9:39] Distraction and making you mad.
[9:41] So, Dan, if you're mad that they're doing that and it's popular, it's doing its job.
[9:45] Oh, okay.
[9:45] Because the new enjoyment is getting mad at something.
[9:47] The eggs on my face, then, I guess.
[9:49] I'm sorry.
[9:49] Old people.
[9:50] That would actually make amazing content, Dan,
[9:53] is putting eggs on your face.
[9:55] Just shoving eggs into my face.
[9:56] And you put a clip,
[9:58] you put like a three-second clip
[9:59] from a popular song,
[10:00] that Choosing Texas song or something like that.
[10:03] And that's the whole thing.
[10:03] Too popular.
[10:04] You got to pull it back a little bit.
[10:05] Okay, sorry.
[10:06] Like 100 Gecs or whatever they're called.
[10:08] Are you worried I'm going to get too powerful
[10:10] with my new Texas egg reel?
[10:12] Well, I mean, at some point,
[10:13] this Texas egg thing,
[10:15] the Texas egg craze will blow over
[10:16] and then where will it be?
[10:17] Have more egg on your face?
[10:19] The hashtag is choose an egg-sis.
[10:20] That's what it is, yeah.
[10:22] Choose your own egg-venture.
[10:24] In the past,
[10:25] maybe old people were like,
[10:26] I like this thing.
[10:27] That's why I watch it.
[10:28] Young people are like,
[10:29] this thing exists
[10:30] and I don't like it.
[10:31] That's why I watch it.
[10:32] So anyway, continue.
[10:33] Mutes.
[10:33] Okay.
[10:34] Well, now that we've
[10:35] proven our old person bona fides,
[10:39] let's go on to this goof game.
[10:42] Okay, here's the goof for you.
[10:43] Up our next mini
[10:44] is us just talking about Yellowstones,
[10:46] so we could further talk about our old person bonafides.
[10:49] And then one about Mosh.
[10:51] I think you're going to enjoy my Flop TV gladiator presentation
[10:55] for the olditudes that I'm going to show.
[10:59] That's a little preview.
[10:59] Gladiator is the next one that we're doing based on when this is released.
[11:03] After.
[11:05] So if I understand correctly,
[11:07] because it was a while since you told us what this game is,
[11:10] you're telling us the goof.
[11:11] Are we supposed to guess the movie?
[11:12] Yeah, guess the movie from the goof.
[11:14] Okay, the mutant movie.
[11:16] Yeah, the mutant movie.
[11:17] Okay, so we have a little bit of a filter on this one.
[11:20] Yes, exactly.
[11:21] This one, I think...
[11:22] So it's not going to be like Victor Victoria.
[11:25] Yes.
[11:25] Okay.
[11:26] It's been a while since I've seen Victor Victoria,
[11:27] but I don't remember there being mutants.
[11:30] No, I don't think so.
[11:30] And it's not going to be like Ordinary People,
[11:35] because there's the opposite of mutants.
[11:36] Yes, thank you.
[11:37] Yeah, okay.
[11:39] That's what Cameron Hodge is trying to create,
[11:41] a world of ordinary people.
[11:43] Because he loves that movie, yeah.
[11:45] Finally, a movie with no mutants in it.
[11:46] Wait, mutant Tyler Moore is in this movie.
[11:49] Oh, shit.
[11:50] Oh, no.
[11:51] Somebody call Nimrod.
[11:54] Okay, I think this, we're going to start off.
[11:56] I love that Dan was like, no X-Men stuff.
[11:58] And immediately, it's all X-Men references.
[12:01] We're going to start off on one.
[12:02] I think it's going to be pretty easy.
[12:04] You know, put the training wheels on at the beginning.
[12:06] Here we go.
[12:07] Thanks.
[12:08] The two moons of Mars appear in several background shots,
[12:11] but they're incorrectly depicted.
[12:13] They are both shown as being much larger than they would appear in real life.
[12:17] Phobos would appear to be about a third of the size of the Earth's moon,
[12:20] and Deimos would be a little larger than a star.
[12:23] In addition, Phobos orbits Mars faster than Mars rotates,
[12:28] so it would appear to rise in the west and set in the east
[12:31] and should have moved visibly with respect to the other moon,
[12:34] even from one shot to the next.
[12:36] Real quick, before we pick the movie, I just need to say,
[12:39] I think it is insane that this movie was allowed to be released in, I'm assuming, movie theaters.
[12:45] With this kind of a fucking goof.
[12:47] Egregious goof.
[12:48] It's misleading all of America's youth, certainly, yeah, who haven't gotten yet the knowledge they need about Mars' moons.
[12:55] Their moon expectations have been set incorrectly.
[12:58] I know what movie I think this is, but Stuart, do you want to go first?
[13:00] I saw a look of, or Felipe, do you want to go first?
[13:02] How do we, do we call our names?
[13:04] We raise our hand?
[13:05] How do we do this?
[13:06] I think just yell it out.
[13:08] You've already thought more about this game than Dan had.
[13:11] Let me finish the goof.
[13:12] Okay.
[13:13] Oh, there's more to it?
[13:14] No, no, no, no.
[13:14] I'm saying don't cut me off, but let me finish the goof and then just, if you got it, yell it out.
[13:20] Total Recall.
[13:22] Yes, let's get our asses to Mars with Total Recall.
[13:26] Those people can't worry about the moons.
[13:28] They need to breathe.
[13:29] People need air.
[13:31] Yeah.
[13:31] Now, what do you think?
[13:32] You know, I assume that we're all big fans of Total Recall as a movie movie.
[13:36] Yeah, that's fine.
[13:38] Oh, Sky Elliot, wow.
[13:38] I'm going to take somebody to go beat up Elliot.
[13:40] Wow.
[13:42] The only reason Total Recall doesn't do it for me the way that I wish it would
[13:45] is that I can't help it.
[13:47] This is me bringing this to it.
[13:48] Every time I watch Total Recall, I think about how great RoboCop is,
[13:51] and I go, why is this movie not as good as RoboCop?
[13:53] No, that's hard, though.
[13:55] That's unfair.
[13:55] It's hard.
[13:56] It's hard.
[13:56] You take the best movie the guy ever made,
[13:58] and he compares other movies to it.
[14:00] It's hard.
[14:00] And he's got a good career.
[14:01] Yeah, well, sure.
[14:03] Maybe my, like, fourth favorite Barrowman movie,
[14:05] but, like, it's still great.
[14:06] After what, Soldier of Orange?
[14:09] I like Robocop and Starship Troopers more,
[14:12] and I'm sure there's like one of his artier ones
[14:15] that would get in there.
[14:17] I love how you're like,
[14:18] that's my fourth favorite, one and two,
[14:21] and I bet there's a third one in there.
[14:24] I'm pretty sure.
[14:25] Third movie TBD.
[14:26] I can't remember.
[14:27] Showgirls, probably.
[14:28] Can't remember all the artier ones,
[14:30] but I know that there's like at least one of those
[14:32] that I probably like more.
[14:33] It's number one, Benedetta.
[14:34] I was going to say his flesh.
[14:36] Benedetta's great, yeah.
[14:38] Dan, of course it's Benedetta.
[14:39] I'd probably put Black Book before.
[14:42] Because Benedetta's super sexy.
[14:44] That's why you picked that one.
[14:45] Benedetta's great.
[14:45] I would put it below Total Recall for me.
[14:49] Okay.
[14:50] Because nobody gets their ass to Mars.
[14:51] No one gets their ass to Mars.
[14:52] No eyes bug out.
[14:54] I was sitting through Benedetta waiting for someone to get their ass to Mars.
[14:57] It just didn't happen.
[14:58] They've got to get their ass to Mars.
[15:00] And when I was watching Showgirls, I'm like, I'm seeing asses, but they're not going to Mars.
[15:04] Getting to Mars.
[15:05] They're out of this world, that's for sure.
[15:07] They're mooning.
[15:08] There's no Mars in that movie.
[15:09] There.
[15:10] Thank you.
[15:11] Those are different moons.
[15:12] Yeah, very good point.
[15:15] Rotating, but not at the right velocity or in the right direction.
[15:18] You should have seen the group I wrote for Showgirls.
[15:20] Yeah.
[15:21] Well, what do you think of this as a mutant movie, though?
[15:24] I think the New York Times, by the way, just like listed Showgirls and the like, so bad it's good.
[15:29] They're doing like a series of like, so bad it's good things.
[15:32] and I'm like, come on, come on, guys.
[15:34] Stop trying to bite on our fucking steez.
[15:36] Yeah.
[15:37] But yeah, like, yeah, Showgirl's good, idiot.
[15:41] I don't know why you have to claim it's bad.
[15:43] It's good.
[15:45] Don't make me push you into stuff in a locker.
[15:47] I think it's better than people said at the time.
[15:54] Like, it's trying to do a thing that people didn't recognize.
[15:57] It does have, like, a lot of, like, bad performances
[16:00] and stupid stuff in it.
[16:01] I think it's still not that good, but much like Starship Troopers, I am baffled that when it came out, people didn't really understand what it was trying to do or what was going on with it.
[16:10] More like when Starship Troopers hit streaming and all the fucking Gen Z kids were like, oh, this movie is low-key fascist.
[16:17] And you're like, what?
[16:18] It is high-key satirical fascism.
[16:21] I mean, that's what the critics did at the time.
[16:23] They were like, Verhoeven may not realize that he's made a fascist movie.
[16:27] And it's like, did you see the movie?
[16:28] This guy who grew up during the end of World War II.
[16:34] The guy at the end when Doogie Howser is just wearing like a Nazi uniform basically.
[16:38] They're like, he may not realize it, but he has him in a Nazi uniform.
[16:41] Like, I think he knows.
[16:43] But it's similar to – there's so many old movies.
[16:45] And then we'll talk about whether we like this movie as a mutant movie.
[16:47] Vero may have done a whoopsie.
[16:49] We've talked about this before.
[16:50] We're like, there's so many old movies where something deliberately sexually – a sexual innuendo takes place.
[16:56] And people are like, ugh, can you believe that?
[16:58] There's the scene in, what is it, the gangsta here where they're dancing around with these huge bananas and they've got like these huge bananas between their legs and people are like, oh, I guess they didn't know what they were doing.
[17:07] It's like they knew what they were doing.
[17:08] People knew what penises looked like.
[17:10] Like they understood.
[17:10] Like huge bananas.
[17:12] Like sex wasn't invented in 1968, you know.
[17:14] And to return to one of my weird obsessions, I was watching an episode of Jim and the holograms were talking about how later on they have to go to the Rock Hard Cafe and I'm like, Jim knows what it's doing.
[17:25] Jim knows that's a joke for the adults in the audience, yeah.
[17:27] That's a joke for Dan.
[17:30] I would argue that, like, pre-1960s, people were more interested in sex because there was far less other options of entertainment.
[17:38] You couldn't go play fucking video games.
[17:41] They couldn't.
[17:41] That's true.
[17:42] I mean, in the 1960s, they couldn't play video games particularly either, you know.
[17:46] That's what I'm saying.
[17:47] Like, but even before, like, go back to the dawn of time.
[17:50] Like, you have far fewer things to entertain you.
[17:52] Yeah, there weren't any entertainment at the dawn of time.
[17:53] That's for sure.
[17:54] But it's a little bit like how in the – for many years when they would translate like Greek drama and Greek poetry, they'd edit out all the homoerotic stuff because it was like, well, this stuff is wonderful, but we can't let anyone know that they knew about this back then.
[18:08] Like this was not a – this is not a thing that they could know about.
[18:11] It's like, I don't know, man.
[18:12] This has been going on for a long time.
[18:14] People have been doing it with different parts of their body and other people for a long time.
[18:19] Okay.
[18:20] So anyway, is Total Recall a mutant movie we like?
[18:22] Is that what you're saying?
[18:23] Yes, yes.
[18:24] Well, yeah, how do you like that?
[18:25] Certainly, it's got a quaddo in it.
[18:27] That's a pretty good mutant.
[18:28] And what's his name?
[18:30] Benny with his little weird arm?
[18:32] Yeah.
[18:33] Benny with the weird arm.
[18:36] Benny's weird arm.
[18:36] And the triple-breasted lady.
[18:38] Thank you.
[18:38] And the triple-breasted lady.
[18:40] Thank you.
[18:40] It took us a while to get there.
[18:42] Maybe she's just an alien.
[18:44] I don't know.
[18:45] It's hard to say.
[18:45] I think that's the thing.
[18:46] It's hard to know who's a mutant and who's an alien,
[18:48] much like in the latter-day Ninja Turtles comics.
[18:51] Wait, are there any aliens in the movie?
[18:54] I thought it was all.
[18:54] I mean, they're all on Mars.
[18:56] I mean.
[18:58] But I mean, there's no like.
[19:01] Yeah, there's no extraterrestrial characters unless you count people who are born on Mars, I guess.
[19:05] They're all colonists is what you're saying.
[19:08] They're all human in origin.
[19:10] It's been a while since I've seen Total Recall.
[19:11] Then do you think the triple-breasted woman is, do you think she was born that way or is that a surgical augmentation?
[19:15] Is she a natural mutant or no?
[19:17] It could be.
[19:18] Yeah, I mean, it could be either, dude.
[19:20] I think we need the spinoff series.
[19:22] the spinoff Netflix series just about this one character,
[19:24] the prequel series that ends with her in that bar.
[19:27] I mean, the prequel will cover everything.
[19:29] Like every character explaining everything,
[19:31] explaining how they invented those like X-ray walking things, you know?
[19:37] Yeah, how the Johnny Cab got programmed.
[19:40] Yeah, exactly.
[19:40] This horrible trend of like television.
[19:42] Can I tell you like, so as you know, my wife-
[19:48] They're making a show about Ghostbusters.
[19:50] Yeah.
[19:51] Oh, that one may be okay.
[19:53] That one may be interesting.
[19:54] That's not a prequel.
[19:55] It's in between two existing properties.
[19:57] It's set within continuity.
[19:59] No, you know, you know that Audrey, my wife, is a big fan of mysteries, British cozy mysteries in particular.
[20:07] We'll watch any old crap as she will freely admit.
[20:12] If someone gets stabbed and there's a scene of a teacup being placed back in a saucer, she will watch it.
[20:18] Yeah.
[20:18] And there's a new, like, Tommy and Tuppence series,
[20:22] which is like Agatha Christie's third most popular detectives.
[20:26] You know, after Poirot and Miss Marple,
[20:27] there's also this married couple
[20:29] who are kind of like a less amusing Nick and Noral Charles.
[20:32] They're just like, you know, like, oh, you know,
[20:35] we're a couple and it's fun to solve mysteries.
[20:38] And this fucking TV show starts out
[20:41] before they're a couple with, like,
[20:44] will they or won't they shit.
[20:45] I'm like, why?
[20:47] Why does every TV show have to do this?
[20:49] It was like, what do you really want to see
[20:50] is the stuff that happened before the shit you want to see.
[20:54] Just like the fun stuff is them being a fun couple
[20:57] just doing mystery stuff.
[20:59] Anyway.
[21:00] So they're not doing mystery stuff.
[21:01] It's just about them dating.
[21:02] They still do mysteries, but you know,
[21:05] there's just a bunch of-
[21:05] Are they mutant though?
[21:07] Thank you.
[21:08] Thank you for getting us back on track.
[21:09] Thank you for continuing the Flophouse theme
[21:11] of the guest keeping us more on track than the host.
[21:13] Yeah, let's check under the hood
[21:15] and see if they're mutants.
[21:15] Okay, okay, okay.
[21:16] Let's peel off the layers of outerwear
[21:18] that I'm assuming they're wearing
[21:20] in this British mystery.
[21:21] Yeah, I'm going to say Total Recall
[21:23] works for me as a mutant movie.
[21:24] Okay, okay.
[21:25] Yeah, I agree.
[21:27] Here's another egregious goof.
[21:31] It goes like this.
[21:32] It would be impossible to channel gas
[21:35] into the subway system
[21:36] without it escaping into the air above ground.
[21:42] So...
[21:42] Subway, is it money train?
[21:45] Seems to be a goof based on the Om Shrinko terror attack
[21:48] in the Tokyo subway system.
[21:52] Is it a...
[21:54] Is Tetsuo the Iron Man a mutant?
[21:56] Is that it?
[21:57] Sorry?
[21:58] No.
[21:59] Tetsuo the Iron Man?
[22:00] Is he a mutant?
[22:01] Yeah, is Tetsuo the Iron Man a mutant, Dan?
[22:04] What about Tetsuo II, the body hammer?
[22:06] I think he would count as a mutant, right?
[22:08] He's like a techno mutation, sort of.
[22:11] Cast in the sewer system.
[22:13] Could be a mutant.
[22:14] So it's not Batman Begins.
[22:16] It's not Batman Begins.
[22:18] All right.
[22:20] There's many things that it isn't.
[22:21] It's not the name of the Rose.
[22:21] But only one thing that it is.
[22:23] Is it the name of the Rose?
[22:24] Probably not, though, right?
[22:25] What is the name of the Rose?
[22:27] Jeff?
[22:27] Bernie?
[22:28] Oh, okay.
[22:29] Wow.
[22:29] Bernie Rose.
[22:30] He's my lawyer.
[22:31] It would smell as sweet.
[22:32] It's just that my agent.
[22:33] Yeah.
[22:34] Okay.
[22:35] Well.
[22:36] It's like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or something.
[22:39] It's not TMNT.
[22:41] It is another group of letters.
[22:44] i know oh i know is it chud it is chud cannibalistic humanoid underground dwellers
[22:53] recent recently mentioned on new york one because they came back yeah they're back they're back
[23:00] baby it's the it's the bobblehead at uh at the met stadium oh i wish they just had a godzilla
[23:07] bobblehead at dodger stadium and i missed it and i really want it badly so i can imagine
[23:11] where they're like, Mayor Mom Donnie is angling for the chud vote in the upcoming elections.
[23:15] It's him kind of like eating chud food with chuds in the sewers.
[23:20] Yeah, I mean, they got sick of voting for Curtis Lee, so they'll switch over.
[23:24] What is chud food, do you think?
[23:26] Humans, humans, right?
[23:28] I mean, people probably.
[23:28] Oh, I guess they're cannibalistic, yeah.
[23:29] Yeah, that's right.
[23:30] I mean, cannibalistic would mean other chuds, which they probably do eat.
[23:33] Yeah, yeah.
[23:34] But they're humanoid, so I guess humans count.
[23:37] Yeah.
[23:38] So are they mutants?
[23:39] What do you guys think?
[23:40] Yeah, I think so, right?
[23:42] Weren't they like humans that were mutated?
[23:44] They must have started out as humans that were mutated, right?
[23:48] I don't remember from watching the movie because I saw it a long time ago.
[23:52] I don't know that they explain it.
[23:53] I believe that there was some sort of toxic or nuclear waste involved.
[23:58] So, yes, I think that's a very classic.
[24:01] Daniel Stern is in that one, yeah.
[24:03] So much like at the end of Jason Takes Manhattan when they flush toxic waste through the sewers of New York at, what, midnight every night?
[24:09] That's probably what they did in Chud to make those Chuds, yeah.
[24:13] Is that true?
[24:15] Do they do that?
[24:16] Do they do that?
[24:19] That should be in the goofs of Jason Takes Manhattan, right?
[24:23] In actuality, they do not release the toxic waste in New York every day.
[24:29] Also, Jason Takes Manhattan doesn't feature any Chuds in the underground scenes
[24:33] when we all know it's full of fucking Chuds down there.
[24:35] It's full of Chuds, yeah.
[24:37] Chud Central.
[24:38] Okay.
[24:39] Yeah, Chud Central Station is where the Chuds take the trains.
[24:43] Goof by omission, I say.
[24:46] Okay, well, here's a goof that you might enjoy.
[24:51] It's a big might.
[24:53] When the sock puppet is playing the bells at the talent show,
[24:57] some of the bells ring before he picks them up.
[25:00] I could hardly enjoy this film.
[25:02] So consumed with rage was I at this goof.
[25:06] Is that freaked?
[25:07] It is freaked.
[25:09] Oh, wow.
[25:09] Right.
[25:11] That's a fun movie.
[25:12] I haven't watched it in years,
[25:13] but I remember watching it a lot when I was young because it was on HBO.
[25:15] And I'd be like, this movie is better than it should be.
[25:18] Even as a kid, I was like, this movie is funnier than it should be.
[25:20] Is that the Alex Winter one?
[25:22] Yeah, with Alex Winter.
[25:23] Yeah.
[25:23] There's a joke in it I think about all the time.
[25:25] I never saw that one.
[25:25] Oh, it's a funny movie.
[25:27] There's a joke I think about all the time where it's a commercial for a product
[25:30] and it goes, you're a man.
[25:32] You like cheese.
[25:33] Try my cheese-mo.
[25:35] And this hand just crushes a can full of cheese sports out of it.
[25:39] Anyway, now I'm going to watch that movie.
[25:40] I'm going to find there's tons of jokes that are problematic,
[25:42] and I'll be like, I'm sorry I recommended it.
[25:46] You're to blame.
[25:47] Yeah, I did write and direct it, yeah.
[25:50] I didn't.
[25:51] It's currently available on Amazon Prime, but it's leaving tomorrow.
[25:56] Tomorrow, uh-oh.
[25:57] And this episode's not coming out the day we record it.
[25:59] No, it's not coming out for several weeks.
[26:01] Oh, man.
[26:02] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[26:03] This is like finding out a star has exploded light years away,
[26:07] and we're only getting the echoes of it.
[26:09] You can't go back and fix it.
[26:10] When you watch Freaked,
[26:11] you are watching the light
[26:13] that was at the set of Freaked years ago.
[26:17] I stayed away from the trivia
[26:20] because, of course, this is a goofs-themed mini,
[26:22] but in the trivia...
[26:23] Thank God.
[26:23] In the trivia...
[26:24] You have to have some standards.
[26:27] You know, it's IMDb.
[26:28] I never know the veracity of anything that's said there,
[26:31] but they said that Keanu Reeves got a million dollars
[26:35] to play the dog-faced bully in Freaked.
[26:38] He definitely got, I don't know that he got a million dollars.
[26:40] It seems like that's a lot for the budget of what I presume Freaked had.
[26:44] It had a $12 million budget, according to Wikipedia.
[26:47] Total $11 million post-Keanu cut budget.
[26:51] And Johnny Knoxville was actually Keanu Reeves' stand-in for a lot of shots there.
[26:58] And originally, this is something I think is true,
[27:00] is that this was originally meant to be a vehicle for the butthole surfers.
[27:04] Interesting.
[27:05] I think they were going to star in it and it didn't happen.
[27:08] out no no so what do you guys make of about the butthole server yeah are the butthole surfers a
[27:15] good mutant me what was that who was in my room last night that's a banger uh i don't uh hmm i
[27:22] guess so what are we judging a good mutant movie by uh mutinosity um you know what ask a stupid
[27:30] question yeah yeah no it's true i mean like well is it how slimy is it how uh because there are
[27:36] mutants in it there are mutated people but it's also like it's a comedy movie it's not like a
[27:41] serious movie so you're saying a mutant movie it's not gonna get nominated for best picture probably
[27:46] no probably not now how many movies would you say are serious pictures no but one where something
[27:53] like something like total recall or chud you are meant to take the storyline seriously like
[27:59] whereas this is a it's a it's kind of a cartoon of a movie so no it's designed to give you a
[28:04] cavalcade of mutants.
[28:07] Of gags and goose.
[28:09] Yeah, they have been freaked, for sure.
[28:11] No, that's a fun
[28:12] I recall it being a fun movie.
[28:14] I also agree that
[28:16] it's the type of movie that
[28:17] I fear might have stuff
[28:20] that I went at now. I guarantee you, I'll watch
[28:22] it and I'll be like, ooh,
[28:24] ooh. Yeah, well, go back in
[28:26] remembering it was made in 1993.
[28:29] I didn't even realize that's
[28:30] John Hawks playing the cowboy,
[28:32] the person who's half cow, half man.
[28:34] John Hawks?
[28:35] Yeah.
[28:37] Okay.
[28:38] Let's do one more before we'll go to a short break.
[28:42] This one, this is...
[28:44] Take us down mutant lane, Dan.
[28:47] I'm going to change this one up.
[28:49] This is from...
[28:50] This is from the...
[28:51] This one I've gotten used to the format.
[28:54] Oh, boy, yeah.
[28:55] I got to keep your head on swivel.
[28:56] Keeping us on our mutant toes.
[28:58] This is from Incorrectly Regarded as Goofs.
[29:02] Okay.
[29:03] This is long, so listen to the whole thing.
[29:05] Oh, good.
[29:06] The movie is supposedly set in the USA.
[29:10] The person at the bar mentions that Seth eats chocolate bars.
[29:13] This is how a Canadian would describe them.
[29:16] The correct term in America is candy bars.
[29:18] What?
[29:19] Part two.
[29:19] This is incorrectly regarded as a goof.
[29:22] Yeah.
[29:22] While candy bar is common in the U.S., the term chocolate bar is also a standard and
[29:26] widely used descriptor through the U.S.
[29:28] Do you think the same person made both these comments?
[29:31] I don't know.
[29:31] He had a change of heart.
[29:32] A character's specific choice of vocabulary does not constitute a factual error.
[29:38] Wow.
[29:39] So we know that someone, what was the name of the person that eats, or mutant, that eats candy bars or chocolate bars?
[29:46] Yeah, that's the biggest clue.
[29:49] Seth eats a chocolate bar.
[29:53] And it could be Canadian.
[29:57] Not the Canadian cartoonist Seth, right?
[29:59] It's someone else.
[30:01] It's a biopic about Seth.
[30:02] It's a good life if you don't weaken the movie.
[30:05] Yeah, yeah.
[30:08] Now, I want to live in the alternate universe
[30:11] where instead of making superhero movies,
[30:14] there's just tons of movies based on Seth comics.
[30:16] So it's like, you see the new Clyde Fans movie?
[30:19] Don't tell me what happens.
[30:20] Don't tell me what happens.
[30:23] Yeah.
[30:25] Palooka Ville, the series, TV series.
[30:28] I love it.
[30:28] I love it.
[30:29] I was just flipping through Wimbledon Green,
[30:32] The other day, and I was like, can I read this to my children?
[30:35] Oh, there's more swearing in this than I remember.
[30:37] No, I don't think so.
[30:37] Yeah, I want the Fantagraphics Comics Cinematic Universe of Frank.
[30:44] So at the end of Clyde Fan, suddenly they go,
[30:46] have you heard of the Ghost World Initiative?
[30:48] Sure, yeah, the Comics Journal Initiative.
[30:54] Seth, so it's not Seth from Street Fighter.
[30:57] You know, Mr. Policeman, I've given you all the clues.
[31:00] It's probably not Seth or Set, the Egyptian god.
[31:06] Probably not.
[31:07] I don't remember him being in a movie.
[31:09] Now, this mutation happens, I will tell you, in a different way.
[31:15] In a different way.
[31:15] Some people...
[31:16] Like a dance contest?
[31:17] Well, you know, I think that a lot of them, you know, a lot of the mutant movies you'll see,
[31:21] like there's some sort of like toxic or nuclear waste that causes the mutation.
[31:27] This is a more unique thing.
[31:30] Some might dispute whether it's a mutant movie.
[31:33] It's on a lot of lists of mutant movies.
[31:37] So, Seth, possibly Canadian.
[31:43] But not the dark backwards.
[31:47] All right, I can see that I've stumped you.
[31:48] This one is...
[31:49] Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
[31:50] Before you say it, I think I know what it is.
[31:51] I think it is Moulin Rouge.
[31:54] Nope.
[31:55] This is David Cronenberg's The Fly.
[31:57] Oh, the fly.
[32:00] Seth Brundle.
[32:01] Seth Brundle.
[32:02] See, I think of him as Brundle.
[32:04] Yeah, that's the thing.
[32:05] Or Brundle Fly.
[32:06] Yeah, that's what I think of.
[32:08] Oh, I'm like an idiot.
[32:10] So this is like he is.
[32:11] I feel so dumb now that I forgot he eats a chocolate bar at some point in the movie.
[32:14] He is self-mutated.
[32:15] Well, like a fly, you know, they love candy.
[32:17] I would say.
[32:18] They love sugar.
[32:19] Because I would say the 1950s fly, he is not necessarily a mutant.
[32:22] They've just swapped body parts.
[32:24] But the 80s fly, the corner work one, his DNA has been altered.
[32:27] So he is a mutant.
[32:28] That is mutation, the alteration of DNA.
[32:30] So yes, he is a mutant.
[32:32] Come at me, haters.
[32:33] Come at me if you disagree.
[32:35] Okay.
[32:37] I got your back.
[32:38] Lock your door, Elliot, in case the haters arrive.
[32:40] I do lock my door usually.
[32:43] Start nailing some boards up on your windows.
[32:45] Oh, no.
[32:47] That is a living haters.
[32:49] I was just, it's all Bill Hader.
[32:51] So it's like all these impressions.
[32:54] I was just talking about these fly movies with my kids the other day because I made a – I said, help me, help me, and they had no idea what I was talking about.
[33:01] And I was like, when I was a kid, that was just a standard reference you could make, and people kind of generally knew what it was.
[33:06] Which is wild because, like, that was a long time ago even then.
[33:10] No, but it was the kind of movie that, like –
[33:12] It was 40 years before, right?
[33:13] Yeah, it was 40 years, but it was the kind of movie that, like, our parents would have seen on television growing up.
[33:17] And so there was a lot of old references that I knew because they were repeated on shows written by people my parents' age.
[33:24] So it was like their types of stuff, you know.
[33:27] But yeah, that's, yeah.
[33:28] Would you guys say that's a mutant movie, The Fly?
[33:31] The Cronenberg one?
[33:32] Yeah, the Cronenberg one.
[33:33] Yeah, totally.
[33:34] Do you think that's the same thing with this generation?
[33:35] That whole thing about you being able to identify the references from your parents' generation?
[33:41] Because I remember I grew up in Colombia and we used to watch like Tom and Jerry and Flintstones cartoons, stuff from like the 60s, 50s, 40s.
[33:50] And I don't know if kids today are as aware of, you know.
[33:53] They definitely, they definitely are not.
[33:55] I think you're right.
[33:55] Like growing up, even growing up in the United States, like TV was just filled with older
[33:58] stuff, you know, and you had to, and you know, we're really old people, but like you had
[34:03] to watch it because there was nothing else on.
[34:05] You couldn't watch something else.
[34:06] So it was like, yeah, I would get up at early on Saturday mornings and I'm like, what's
[34:11] on TV?
[34:12] Tooter Turtle, Leo the Lion, like these cartoons my parents don't even remember.
[34:16] And a bunch of cartoons, even the more current modern cartoons are also like thinly disguised
[34:22] versions of old, like sitcoms
[34:24] and TV shows. Yeah, exactly.
[34:26] It's the way, we've talked about it before, but it's the way
[34:28] media is delivered now
[34:30] versus then. Like, back then, even
[34:32] when cable was around, it was just like,
[34:34] okay, well, we had
[34:35] a limited number of television channels
[34:38] and not enough
[34:39] TV in all of TV
[34:42] history to fill it all the time.
[34:44] And so, we would just get a bunch
[34:46] of old stuff fed to us. Yeah, like
[34:48] Dream On. Yeah, like
[34:49] That's not a hybrid situation.
[34:52] A mutant, if you will.
[34:53] But like if you were watching like WPIX, you know, the local New York, Channel 11, the New York's movie station,
[35:00] in the middle of the day on a weekend, they'd just be showing the Honeymooners because like that's what they had access to.
[35:04] Whereas kids today, they don't know the Honeymooners.
[35:08] I would watch like Gilligan's Island and, you know, The Flying Nun.
[35:12] That's from like 30 years before.
[35:15] Yeah, they're all watching like Demon Hunter and all these other animes and shit.
[35:19] It's all Blue-Eye Samurai.
[35:20] It's not even like original anime.
[35:22] Real Housewives.
[35:23] Yeah, they're all watching Real Housewives.
[35:24] All these kids watching Real Housewives.
[35:26] I get it.
[35:27] The Flying Nun.
[35:28] That feels like an idea that...
[35:30] Is she a mutant?
[35:31] I don't know.
[35:32] She just has a habit.
[35:34] A special habit.
[35:35] Oh, I see.
[35:36] But that seems like an idea
[35:37] that I can kind of see that getting greenlit today
[35:40] more than back then when there was less stuff.
[35:43] Out of all the stuff, we were like,
[35:45] yeah, let's make this movie about this nun
[35:47] that can, like, fly because her hat catches the wind or whatever.
[35:51] See, now this is me ripping off.
[35:52] But for, like, adult's fame or something, right?
[35:55] Yeah.
[35:55] There I can see it, yeah.
[35:57] But this is me ripping off a tweet I saw that the flying nun,
[35:59] the first season would be about how she gets that hat, you know,
[36:02] where it's like, and then she wouldn't really fly.
[36:04] She'd, like, hover every now and then,
[36:05] and she'd fly for real at the end of the last episode of the season, you know.
[36:08] She's on the run from the government, too, or something like that.
[36:11] Let's take a short break and we'll be back with more goofs.
[36:41] of Small Talk with listeners from around the world.
[36:44] Also, the games we play are the ones that they submitted.
[36:47] We have to play them no matter what.
[36:49] Oh, and Alex is here to help keep the pod running.
[36:52] Hey, I'm here too.
[36:53] Anyway, I like talking to silly billies
[36:55] and playing their weird games.
[36:57] Find it on MaximumFun.org.
[37:00] Dr. Game Show.
[37:02] Wonderful is a podcast where we talk about things we like.

[37:07] so we've enlisted the help of piano rock superstar Billy Joel
[37:10] to tell you about some of the topics we've covered.

[39:03] The Flophouse has an exciting announcement, and it is the same exciting announcement I've been making for months now because Flop TV is on the air.
[39:11] That's right.
[39:12] Season 4 of Flop TV continues apace.
[39:15] That is the live one-hour streaming directly to your computer video version of The Flophouse.
[39:21] It's like if The Flophouse had its own TV show.
[39:23] We said, why should we wait for some network to give us time or money to make a TV show?
[39:28] Let's do it ourselves, and we did.
[39:30] So this is Season 4.
[39:31] If you go to theflophouse.simpletix.com,
[39:34] you will see that, one, tickets are for sale,
[39:37] and two, that the theme this season is best picture winners.
[39:40] We talked about Green Book.
[39:41] We talked about Greatest Show on Earth.
[39:43] Next up, we're talking about Gladiator,
[39:46] Stewart's least favorite best picture winner, I think.
[39:49] So how do we see it?
[39:51] I'll tell you how you see it.
[39:51] The first Saturday of every month at 9 p.m. Eastern, 6 p.m. Pacific,
[39:56] you watch it on your computer.
[39:58] At theflophouse.simpletix.com, you can buy tickets to see it.
[40:01] Either individual shows or you can do what the cool people do and buy the season pass.
[40:06] That's six shows for the cost of five.
[40:08] If you missed any episodes, your ticket will get you access to the video recording of that episode, exclusive access through the end of February when the series will end and we will put these episodes back in the Flophouse vault where they will languish for probably a couple years is my guess.
[40:26] So go to theflophouse.simpletix.com.
[40:28] Come join us live the first Saturday of each month, 9 p.m. Eastern, 6 p.m. Pacific, or if you can't make it to the live airing, watch the recordings afterwards.
[40:36] It's super fun.
[40:37] You get presentations.
[40:38] You get video segments.
[40:39] The video segment I did for Greatest Show on Earth was me really pushing my acting chops, and you won't know what I'm talking about if you don't watch the video or if you saw the show when we did it.
[40:53] I can't wait to see what the,
[40:54] part of the fun is seeing
[40:55] what Dan and Stuart do for their extras
[40:58] and then seeing their reaction
[41:00] to what I do for my extras.
[41:02] And it's just super fun.
[41:03] And at the end of the episode,
[41:04] you get a chance to ask your questions
[41:06] and then we answer them.
[41:07] It's like being at a Flophouse live show
[41:08] and you don't even have to leave your house.
[41:11] Unlike a professional television show,
[41:12] we don't let one another know
[41:14] what we're doing ahead of time
[41:15] because we have more fun that way.
[41:17] Unlike a certain show like Jackass Dan,
[41:20] well, that's also part of the fun.
[41:21] So that's theflophouse.simpletix.com.
[41:23] To buy your tickets to Flop TV, if you're on the fence about buying tickets for Flop TV, don't be.
[41:28] Just go buy them.
[41:30] Theflophouse.simpletix.com now through the end of February.
[41:33] And we're back.
[41:36] Here's a goof for you.
[41:37] Okay.
[41:38] Lay it on me.
[41:40] Oh, you're going to love it.
[41:41] Goof me up.
[41:42] You're going to love it.
[41:43] This is actually—
[41:43] I'm going to be totally goofed.
[41:44] Just wreck me with this goof.
[41:46] These are two sort of related goofs that I've linked.
[41:49] Whoa, whoa, whoa.
[41:50] You said one goof.
[41:51] Two goofs.
[41:52] I didn't say I was getting double T's.
[41:53] This is the Daily Double for goofs.
[41:58] You know, the Daily Double is still one question.
[42:01] You get it for Jeopardy, but for goofs.
[42:04] You're right.
[42:05] I forgot for, what was this one called?
[42:07] Yikes, the goofs are coming?
[42:10] Look out, the goofs are mutating.
[42:12] That's what it was.
[42:14] Okay, here we go.
[42:16] Goof number one.
[42:18] This is like, let's call it Goof A.
[42:22] That's what they call Goofy in France.
[42:24] The police are continuing.
[42:29] Goofy.
[42:31] Goofy.
[42:31] He's a genius, you know.
[42:32] Let's move to Goof.
[42:33] He's the physical comedy of Goofy.
[42:37] He's a good father.
[42:41] The police.
[42:42] Why does Goofy never smoke?
[42:45] Goofy captures the American spirit.
[42:49] The police are continuously driving around underground tunnels with their sirens blaring,
[42:55] even when there are no cars, pedestrians, or anything else in the vicinity.
[42:59] That's goof A.
[43:00] Goof B.
[43:01] It's not really a goof.
[43:02] It's a bad decision, but...
[43:04] Goof B.
[43:05] Toward the end of the film, about five cops and Frank get out of a police car in the drainage
[43:10] tunnel.
[43:11] The lead detective hands Frank a loaded rifle, but points the rifle directly at two cops
[43:15] before handing it over to him.
[43:17] Then Frank proceeds to dangerously point the rifle at two other policemen.
[43:21] Now, you know, in general, this just sounds like police behavior, but these are the goofs.
[43:27] These are the goofs, guys.
[43:28] The goofs God gave us.
[43:30] I have maybe an answer.
[43:34] It's a movie I just watched for the first time recently.
[43:37] It would be like from left field for them to pick this one.
[43:40] But remind me maybe of something from Alligator, 1980, which is an animal, but it's a mutant animal.
[43:48] That's true.
[43:48] I think it would probably qualify.
[43:50] That's not it, but you're in kind of the vague vibe area, like time period feeling.
[44:00] It's alive, right?
[44:02] It is.
[44:02] It's alive.
[44:03] I was going to say Die Hard with a Vengeance.
[44:05] About a mutant baby.
[44:07] A mutant baby, because I didn't remember them driving in the tunnels,
[44:09] but I remember the dad getting the gun
[44:12] and then being in the tunnels.
[44:13] Tooling around those tunnels in there.
[44:16] It's amazing.
[44:17] My memory of it is mostly about the mutant baby
[44:19] and not so much about them driving around.
[44:21] Is there the Michael Moriarty one?
[44:24] Yeah.
[44:24] The stars in it.
[44:25] Yes.
[44:26] Baby monsters.
[44:28] Music by Bernard Herrmann,
[44:30] and the score is very similar
[44:31] to his taxi driver score at times.
[44:33] Yeah.
[44:35] I'd seen this years ago,
[44:36] and then I saw it again recently
[44:38] because It's Alive 3
[44:40] was a ridiculous sublime.
[44:42] Island of the Babies
[44:43] or whatever.
[44:44] Islands of the Alive.
[44:45] Some friends were like,
[44:46] we got to see the other ones
[44:48] that were prepared.
[44:49] I'm like, I guess.
[44:49] Part 3 was crazy.
[44:50] That's a crazy movie also.
[44:52] Well, they're not even
[44:52] babies anymore.
[44:53] But they still look like babies
[44:55] but they're giant, you know.
[44:56] Yeah.
[44:58] Oh, yeah.
[44:58] What a nutty movie.
[45:00] Yeah.
[45:00] I mean, even if you don't
[45:01] want to see It's Alive,
[45:03] skip to number three.
[45:04] I don't think you're
[45:05] going to miss a lot.
[45:06] You'll have a good time.
[45:07] I think you'll be able
[45:07] to pick up the continuity.
[45:09] Part four is
[45:09] It's Alive goes to college, right?
[45:13] It's College of the Alive.
[45:15] College of the Alive.
[45:16] Thank you.
[45:16] College of the Alive.
[45:17] It was right there.
[45:18] University of the Alive, yeah.
[45:20] You know,
[45:20] we all recently did
[45:21] the Puppet Masters
[45:23] and Castle Freaks.
[45:25] Are you jealous
[45:25] that I got to do
[45:26] Ghoulies 3?
[45:27] That's exactly
[45:27] what I was going to say.
[45:28] I was like,
[45:29] I picked something
[45:31] kind of at random
[45:31] from the list
[45:32] and I was like,
[45:33] oh man,
[45:34] Stuart,
[45:35] that fucker,
[45:35] he got to do
[45:36] Ghoulies go to college.
[45:37] Didn't realize there was such delicious food available.
[45:40] When I, when I, when they told me, when I did it, they were like, we're going to have
[45:43] Stuart for Ghoulies go to college.
[45:44] Like they were, they were very excited about that matchup.
[45:47] I was so pumped.
[45:47] I mean, if you're going to pick someone, obviously it's Stuart, but.
[45:51] Yeah.
[45:51] I got to do The Day Time Ended because we did that for Mystery Science Theater.
[45:56] I gotta tell you, if you want to watch a demo reel for a stop motion animation, The Day
[46:00] Time Ended is not the worst one to watch.
[46:03] So Dan, which, which movie did you end up doing?
[46:05] It was called Vengeance of the Dead.
[46:07] It was a sort of a regional horror movie.
[46:11] Regional?
[46:12] Extremely lore, but yeah, you don't know this.
[46:14] Like, there's a whole, like, this is just a term that is used, like, for, like, low-budget horror movies that were made, like, way out of, like, Hollywood.
[46:21] But it wasn't, like, it was not, like, we want to appeal to a specific region with this.
[46:26] This is, like, an upper Pacific Northwest.
[46:29] Yeah.
[46:30] This is the way I'm saying outside of Hollywood.
[46:32] It's like Thief.
[46:32] I see.
[46:35] Everybody's eating hot dogs and being Jim Belushi's.
[46:37] We want our horror movies really to penetrate the Albuquerque metro region.
[46:43] What's an Albuquerque-specific creature we could have?
[46:49] Some kind of Tremor, probably.
[46:53] Guys, what do you think of It's Alive as a mutant movie?
[46:56] Oh, for sure.
[46:57] It's a mutant baby.
[46:59] The whole series of movies, right?
[47:01] Yeah.
[47:02] Really keyed into America's fear of mutant babies.
[47:07] it's interesting
[47:08] it's a life
[47:09] and you raise your head
[47:10] both
[47:11] yeah yeah
[47:12] that's true
[47:12] you get the high brow
[47:14] and low brow options
[47:15] of fear of parenting
[47:16] yeah yeah
[47:17] it's the same story
[47:18] I don't know
[47:19] it's exactly the same story
[47:21] like
[47:21] the body count
[47:22] for the baby
[47:23] and a razor head
[47:23] is much lower
[47:24] I think it's interesting
[47:26] the series
[47:27] It's Alive
[47:27] like
[47:28] they do push ahead
[47:30] the continuity
[47:31] but it's like
[47:32] okay
[47:32] it's alive
[47:33] guy
[47:33] couple has a mutant baby
[47:35] has mixed feelings
[47:37] about this mutant baby,
[47:39] like still has affection for it
[47:40] because it's their baby,
[47:42] but like, you know, it's killing people.
[47:43] And then the second one
[47:45] is kind of just a retread of the first one,
[47:48] but they're more mutant babies.
[47:49] And then the third one is totally wild.
[47:51] It's totally bonkos.
[47:53] Well, so because when they brought James Cameron in
[47:55] to pitch the sequel to It's Alive,
[47:56] he wrote It's Alive on the board
[47:58] and then wrote an S at the end,
[47:59] so it was It's Alives.
[48:00] Yeah.
[48:01] And then he turned that into a dollar sign.
[48:02] We don't understand.
[48:02] That doesn't...
[48:03] That's not...
[48:04] I'm saying there's more babies.
[48:06] Oh, oh.
[48:06] Because, like, the baby's not called It's Alive.
[48:08] It could have been They're Alive.
[48:09] That would have...
[48:10] Doesn't turn into a dollar sign.
[48:12] No, it doesn't turn into...
[48:12] They need an S at the end to make a dollar sign, yeah.
[48:14] Okay, here's a goof for you.
[48:18] Brenda and Bobby notice a bird circling above,
[48:21] and Bobby says it's a turkey bugger.
[48:22] So many good B sounds in that sentence.
[48:24] Yeah, it's just like we're in the middle of scenes
[48:28] from an Italian restaurant.
[48:30] Brenda and Bobby notice a bird circling.
[48:35] Bobby says it's a turkey buzzard.
[48:37] However, the bird shown is not a turkey buzzard,
[48:41] also known as a turkey vulture,
[48:43] and it is instead a hawk.
[48:44] The calls it make are also not realistic
[48:47] for a vulture or a hawk.
[48:49] So the first part I would say
[48:51] is incorrectly regarded as goof
[48:52] because just because a character is wrong
[48:54] doesn't make the movie wrong.
[48:56] Yes, the character may be wrong on purpose.
[48:58] Yeah, that's a good point.
[49:00] But how do you explain the calls then?
[49:02] That I can't explain.
[49:03] They're coming from inside the house.
[49:05] oh it's me making a call to myself remember when that was like a wild thing that could happen
[49:12] yeah because people were like they'd be like the calls coming from inside the house and people
[49:16] were like they have two phone lines in their house yeah now it's like yeah there's a murderer
[49:20] loose with the rich person he's got a fucking cell phone now i'm constantly texting my wife
[49:24] in the other room because i don't want to get up exactly yeah the idea of a i mean it's right up
[49:29] there with the doctor was a woman where it the shock has worn off you know it is no longer an
[49:34] unbelievable but possible thing you know or that the that pagliacci's a clown
[49:38] i think that was the twist i mean they always yeah they always knew he was a clown they just
[49:46] didn't know he was anyway who was the clown is more of a who's harry clown
[49:51] i love the idea that story about that story that pagliacci story where it's like
[49:56] but but doctor i am pagliacci it's like he's this is a bad doctor if it's like hey i feel i i have
[50:02] deep depression why don't you go see this clown that'll cheer you up right no it's probably rooted
[50:07] somewhere in my psyche like i probably have trauma i'm not i'm not processing probably yeah mind off
[50:11] things for like a night doctor i don't know you haven't seen pagliacci's act right it's very
[50:18] yeah it's like that clown we saw elliot yeah the ha ha ha ha ha show yeah what if it was what if
[50:26] this story goes this man goes i'm so depressed i don't know what to do he goes you should go
[50:31] see Pagliacci's show. Go see him. Okay.
[50:32] And he goes, and Pagliacci is clearly
[50:35] the therapist dressed up as a clown.
[50:37] He goes, for my act, I need you
[50:39] to lie down on this couch and tell me about
[50:40] your childhood. And a two drink minimum.
[50:44] This is
[50:45] what we call a bringer show, so I had
[50:47] to prescribe this for
[50:49] you. Everyone there
[50:51] is just his patients.
[50:52] I didn't realize this therapy session
[50:54] was really just a way to get us to come see
[50:56] his Pagliacci act.
[51:01] Good, good. This means I get 15 minutes for my set.
[51:06] Straight into vampire territory, but that's okay.
[51:09] Good, good.
[51:10] Good, good.
[51:12] Come in. Sit down. I will do some clowning for you.
[51:17] You should go see Pagliacci. He's a great clown.
[51:20] But doctor, I am Pagliacci. That's okay. I'm Dracula.
[51:24] He bites him.
[51:28] It's gotten so layered.
[51:33] Here's my other take on this one.
[51:34] Here's my other twist on this before we come back to this bird thing.
[51:36] He goes, you should go see Pagliacci.
[51:38] He's in town.
[51:40] But doctor, I am Pagliacci.
[51:42] Doctor goes, well, when I asked you to describe yourself,
[51:44] you could have mentioned you were a famous fucking clown.
[51:46] Now I look like a real idiot.
[51:48] Kind of left out some important information there
[51:50] that would have helped me figure you out.
[51:52] Therapy doesn't work unless you tell me things.
[51:54] This is about the work you are willing to put into the relationship.
[51:58] That is what will help you.
[52:00] You're right, you're right.
[52:01] I should have known that you're a famous clown.
[52:03] Yeah, it's not like you wear a grease paint
[52:05] and a mask all over your face during your act.
[52:07] We're going to put like a hot link to the Pagliacci story
[52:10] in this episode, right?
[52:12] So people can see.
[52:13] It's a meme at this point.
[52:14] Just put it in blue and they'll click on it.
[52:18] So this movie.
[52:19] So a guy misidentifies a bird.
[52:21] Clue, the key clue is there's some place
[52:23] where a turkey buzzard might be seen.
[52:26] What a clue.
[52:27] Well, it's a mutant movie.
[52:28] Felipe, if you have this one, I will be in such awe because I have no idea.
[52:33] Yeah.
[52:34] I would normally not know it, but it's also another movie I just saw for the first time very, very recently, like two weeks ago, featuring mutants.
[52:44] So maybe it is.
[52:45] Is it The Hills Have Eyes?
[52:46] It is The Hills Have Eyes.
[52:47] Oh, very good.
[52:49] Very good.
[52:50] Because the hills are mutants.
[52:52] Mm-hmm.
[52:52] Yes.
[52:54] They're a hybrid of hill and man.
[52:55] Which one are we talking?
[52:57] Are we talking about the remake?
[52:58] Are we talking about the OG?
[52:59] This is the original.
[53:01] Ah.
[53:02] It's been a long time since I saw that.
[53:03] I forgot about the famous turkey buzzard scene.
[53:05] Does the original have a turkey buzzard as well?
[53:06] The remake?
[53:07] I don't know.
[53:08] I don't know.
[53:09] I saw...
[53:11] Sorry.
[53:11] No, it's okay.
[53:12] I interrupted you.
[53:13] I was going to say something really dumb.
[53:14] Flip, what were you going to say?
[53:15] I watched the old one,
[53:16] and I was surprised about how, you know,
[53:18] not very mutant they are.
[53:20] I saw the remake years ago in the theater,
[53:22] and they are really mutated in that one.
[53:26] Yeah.
[53:26] They're like Hillbillies, Gone Wild, maybe, and the old one.
[53:31] Yeah, I don't know that I would call them mutants.
[53:36] I think they're just kind of inbred Hill people, right?
[53:38] Yeah.
[53:40] I would say, yeah, I would say I don't think that's a mutant movie.
[53:43] Well, I mean, there's nuclear testing in that area that's referenced.
[53:50] I guess, I guess.
[53:52] I don't know.
[53:53] I mean, it was.
[53:54] Yeah, I wouldn't say.
[53:55] The remake is definitely a mutant movie.
[53:58] The original, you can maybe say yes, maybe no.
[54:01] I think they were kind of half doing it either way
[54:05] because when the original came out,
[54:06] there were plenty of movies just about evil hillbillies, basically.
[54:09] Like, they didn't need to be monsters, you know.
[54:12] Yeah.
[54:13] This was, I mean, certainly the inspiration for it
[54:17] was just sort of evil people out in the middle of nowhere
[54:23] because uh apparently it was inspired by wes craven like stopped at a gas station and like
[54:28] gotten there's like some like and there was an altercation with like someone said to me his wife
[54:33] or something and uh he he was like like i i there there might have even been some sort of threat of
[54:41] violence and wes craven's like well i'll call the police and he's like we could just kill you and
[54:46] dump you in the mines or whatever.
[54:48] And he's like, okay.
[54:51] Can you say that in my little tape recorder
[54:53] so that I can, my little ideas tape recorder?
[54:56] That's what Wes Craven carried around.
[54:57] Yeah, yeah.
[54:58] He called it his little ideas tape recorder.
[55:00] He had written that on a piece of scotch tape
[55:02] or a piece of masking tape and put that on there, yeah.
[55:05] Well, we're in the homestretch.
[55:06] There's only two more goofs.
[55:08] Only two more goofs.
[55:09] Then all the goofs are covered.
[55:11] Yeah.
[55:11] There are no more mistakes.
[55:13] We'll close the goof book for goof today.
[55:16] But this goof has some redactions because otherwise it will give it away.
[55:25] The redacted live in the sewer of Manhattan in New York City.
[55:30] All right.
[55:30] Sewers handle the bodily waste of several million people.
[55:33] There's no possible way that the redacted could completely avoid coming in contact with human waste while moving through the sewer tunnels.
[55:40] So this has got to be Ninja Turtles, right?
[55:42] This is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
[55:43] How is it a goof?
[55:45] Because there's no poop in the movie.
[55:47] What a goof.
[55:48] I mean, do you look like, it's not like you hold a fucking black light to them.
[55:51] Where's the ball of sewage?
[55:54] It is true that the ninjas are really good at finding rooms in the sewer, which I don't think there are very many of, you know?
[56:00] Yeah.
[56:01] There should be like a hard to be a god version of turtles with the realistic sewers.
[56:07] That would be gross.
[56:08] Just sloshing through human waste.
[56:11] Now, here's the thing.
[56:13] I think they missed the bigger goof in the movie, which is that turtles are very hard to teach martial arts, too.
[56:21] That is a major goof.
[56:23] It's unrealistic, the idea that they would—
[56:24] Incorrectly regarded, because these are mutant turtles.
[56:27] Yeah, but even mutant turtles are pretty hard to teach martial arts, too.
[56:31] Do you have a lot of experience teaching mutant turtle stuff?
[56:33] Yeah, I do.
[56:34] I don't like to talk about it a lot, but yeah, I do.
[56:36] It didn't work out.
[56:40] I didn't tell you everything about my life.
[56:43] Yeah, you don't know everything.
[56:44] I'm splinter.
[56:45] I forgot to mention that.
[56:46] Yeah.
[56:47] You think this is a good mutant movie?
[56:51] Which one?
[56:52] There's like a million Ninja Turtles movies.
[56:54] Well, this is the first one that I got this off of.
[56:56] Yeah, yeah, this is a good one.
[56:57] I like the suits.
[56:58] I'm into those suits.
[57:01] Yeah.
[57:02] Yeah, I'd say for sure, yeah.
[57:04] That's a mutiny movie.
[57:05] It fulfills my desire for mutants.
[57:06] Absolutely.
[57:07] Right in the name.
[57:08] The thing it doesn't have is often mutants in movies are gross looking and the turtles are not like gross looking.
[57:13] Like they're not –
[57:14] Quite the opposite.
[57:15] Yes, quite the opposite.
[57:16] They're adorable.
[57:17] I think what usually – often mutant implies – especially in like the toxic Avenger type stuff.
[57:24] Like mutant implies decay or rot or corruption in some way because of this.
[57:29] Whereas the turtles are – they look totally healthy, you know.
[57:33] But they're in the prime of life.
[57:34] They're teenagers, you know.
[57:35] Yeah, we don't know how the mutation will affect them.
[57:38] When they're in their 40s, they'll be horrible to look at, you know?
[57:42] Yeah.
[57:42] When they're last grown, it's, yeah.
[57:45] Oof.
[57:46] Terrible.
[57:47] I mean, they don't have to worry about losing their hair, I guess,
[57:49] but they're going to have that thing where, like, their butt gets really weird
[57:52] and, like, it's both not saggy, but also it's kind of, like, imploding a little bit.
[57:56] Like, that happens to a lot of guys when they get older.
[57:58] I mean, turtles live a long time.
[58:00] That's an exercise issue.
[58:01] Maybe teenage turtles are in their 40s.
[58:04] Yeah, that's a good point.
[58:05] Oh, so you're saying that the turtles will die pretty soon is what you're saying.
[58:07] I feel like the turtles live a long time.
[58:09] That's what I'm saying.
[58:10] That's what I'm saying.
[58:10] Well, tortoises live a long time.
[58:12] I don't know if turtles live that long a time.
[58:14] They do live long.
[58:16] I would say ninja – so wait.
[58:20] When I think of mutants, I think of like – what is it?
[58:22] El Monstro from the end of The Substance.
[58:25] Like all like a big –
[58:27] Yeah, so that's what I'm thinking about is something that is like deformed in some way or that is grotesquely misshapen.
[58:35] An aberration.
[58:37] That's a great way to put it.
[58:38] Exactly.
[58:38] As opposed to the turtles, which are a perfection of the form.
[58:41] Yeah.
[58:42] Like Leonardo da Vinci drew.
[58:46] Okay.
[58:47] We got one final goof here.
[58:51] I think someone here might get this one.
[58:55] Okay.
[58:56] It goes like this.
[58:57] It's very short.
[58:58] Myron tells Lance to press the third button on the intercom.
[59:02] There's only one button.
[59:05] Terrible goof.
[59:07] Yeah, this is pretty...
[59:08] This sounds like it might be one of the best movies
[59:10] I've ever seen in my life called The Head of the Family.
[59:13] Head of the Family.
[59:15] Myron.
[59:17] Didn't mean to no-scope that one on you guys.
[59:20] Yeah, you just really sniped it right away.
[59:22] Coming from downtown.
[59:25] That's the sort of thing where, like,
[59:27] if we were recording and I was at home,
[59:29] I would have run all the way over here and answered it.
[59:33] Just ducked down to the microphone.
[59:35] The head of the family is clearly a mutant.
[59:37] And I also wanted to add that Castle Freak would also be a mutant, right?
[59:42] You're correct.
[59:43] I believe I would say that Giorgio is a mutant despite the fact that some of his aberrations were inflicted upon him.
[59:55] He is not exclusively the subject of, yeah, he is a true outsider.
[1:00:01] And now the invisible maniac, would he be a mutant?
[1:00:05] I mean, it does play with his DNA to turn himself invisible.
[1:00:08] Man, it seems like all my movies.
[1:00:11] I mean, when the granny ingests the, what, wee chow?
[1:00:13] Can we call them the mutant trilogy from now on?
[1:00:16] Yeah, I think we have to.
[1:00:17] I think stories all about mutants.
[1:00:19] I don't know.
[1:00:19] I'm kind of a mutant.
[1:00:20] I'm not quite sure why Giorgio's a mutant, though.
[1:00:23] But I think that he, like...
[1:00:25] I mean, he's a natural mutation rather than a...
[1:00:27] I mean, every human being is a natural mutation.
[1:00:29] That's just how genetics works.
[1:00:30] So maybe every movie's a mutant.
[1:00:32] Yeah, they're all...
[1:00:33] You know what?
[1:00:34] Ordinary People, all these movies, The Name of the Rose, they are mutant movies.
[1:00:38] We're all mutants.
[1:00:38] Green Book, Out of Africa.
[1:00:40] Exactly.
[1:00:40] All of them.
[1:00:41] Every movie.
[1:00:41] If it's a real movie, Out of Africa would be.
[1:00:45] If Out of Africa exists, which we won't find out until February.
[1:00:48] But yeah, that's how human generation and evolution works is through mutation.
[1:00:53] So we're all, yeah, it's all mutant movies.
[1:00:54] So forget what I said about The Hills Have Eyes, mutant movie.
[1:00:57] They're all mutant movies.
[1:00:58] Every movie is a mutant movie.
[1:00:59] This is going to come out after the Greatest Show on Earth show,
[1:01:03] but, like, people can obviously watch it still with a ticket.
[1:01:07] Yeah, we won't stop you.
[1:01:08] You don't have to watch it live.
[1:01:10] That's one of the beauties of the form.
[1:01:11] But I'm doing the summary for Greatest Show on Earth,
[1:01:16] and just as, like, a little, like, you know, for prep.
[1:01:19] A little teaser.
[1:01:20] I, like, looked at the Wikipedia page, and I'm like,
[1:01:23] wow, this movie is about something that I did not expect,
[1:01:27] And I don't want to spoil it for you
[1:01:29] if you haven't watched the movie yet,
[1:01:30] but there are elements in Greatest Show on Earth
[1:01:33] that I'm like, what?
[1:01:35] That's what this movie's about?
[1:01:37] So look forward to that.
[1:01:39] So if you haven't, yeah, again, light of a dying star.
[1:01:43] Or remember back to when you discovered that for yourself.
[1:01:46] Yeah.
[1:01:47] Yeah.
[1:01:47] So those are the mutant movies.
[1:01:49] So did we all agree that Head of the Family
[1:01:52] is a great mutant movie, right?
[1:01:54] Oh, yeah, one of the top ones.
[1:01:56] Look at the size of that head.
[1:01:57] I still haven't seen Head of the Family.
[1:01:58] I mean, hey, your kids are about the right age.
[1:02:00] That's true.
[1:02:01] I've seen the other two movies.
[1:02:02] I don't know about that.
[1:02:03] They love heads.
[1:02:04] They love heads.
[1:02:05] Jacqueline Lavelle is very nude in that movie for a lot of it.
[1:02:08] That's just human bodies, dog.
[1:02:10] Yeah, come on.
[1:02:12] The most beautiful of mutation, a human body.
[1:02:15] And I'll tell you something.
[1:02:16] She's putting in a good performance in that movie.
[1:02:17] She gives a great performance in that movie.
[1:02:19] Yeah.
[1:02:20] Nobody's saying she's giving a bad performance to him.
[1:02:22] I'm just giving her credit that, like,
[1:02:25] She probably did not get it at the time.
[1:02:27] You know, the types of movies she was in,
[1:02:29] she probably didn't get the good feedback that she needed,
[1:02:32] but she was great at it.
[1:02:34] The family's on Tubi.
[1:02:35] Maybe I'll watch it next.
[1:02:39] Felipe, before we go,
[1:02:41] is there something you want to plug?
[1:02:43] I know that you're going to be in New York soon
[1:02:47] for the Comic-Con.
[1:02:48] Is that true?
[1:02:49] Do I remember that correctly?

[1:03:57] Yeah, that's where I had my bachelor party.
[1:03:59] Yep, Stuart knows Glen Burnie well.
[1:04:01] Because that's where the headquarters for the Warhammer people used to be.
[1:04:05] Exactly.
[1:04:06] We're going to have a signing also there, October 17th.
[1:04:10] And that's it.

[1:04:20] I am a MaxFun supporter.
[1:04:22] I used to support
[1:04:23] a bunch of shows,
[1:04:24] but they've been
[1:04:25] leaving the network
[1:04:26] and right now
[1:04:27] the only show
[1:04:27] I'm supporting
[1:04:28] is, you know,
[1:04:29] you're listening to it
[1:04:30] right now.
[1:04:32] Thank you for keeping it up.
[1:04:35] I'm listening also
[1:04:36] to the best movies
[1:04:37] each month.
[1:04:39] I listened to the first episode
[1:04:41] right now.
[1:04:41] I loved it.
[1:04:42] You know,
[1:04:43] I'm a huge fan.
[1:04:44] The last time I was in New York,
[1:04:46] I went to meet Stuart in person.
[1:04:49] It was a huge moment for me
[1:04:51] as a longtime Flop fan.
[1:04:53] And, you know,
[1:04:54] thank you for having me, guys.
[1:04:56] No problem.
[1:04:57] Thank you for being here.
[1:04:57] Yeah, I remember you were out
[1:04:59] for a Comic-Con
[1:05:00] and came by the bar
[1:05:01] and we got to hang out
[1:05:02] and you kept me company
[1:05:03] from all the weirdos
[1:05:05] who normally come to my bar.
[1:05:07] With previous guest,
[1:05:09] Alejandro Arbona, also.
[1:05:10] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[1:05:13] Thank you so much for joining us.
[1:05:14] And I want to say again, yeah, the Toxic book,
[1:05:18] what's the full title of it again?
[1:05:20] It's Toxic Avenger versus...
[1:05:22] The Noxious Offender.
[1:05:24] Toxic Avenger versus Noxious Offender.
[1:05:26] And it's really fun.
[1:05:28] I recommend it.
[1:05:29] If you have any interest in anything trauma-ish,
[1:05:34] then you should pick it up because it's really good.
[1:05:36] And it looks, like I said, it looks fantastic.
[1:05:38] The art looks great.
[1:05:39] Yeah.
[1:05:39] So it's well worth it.
[1:05:41] But, yes, thank you to all of our listeners.
