Right, we're gonna talk about how we are celebrating our spooky season. We're also gonna look back on the league

Because right now it is football season and that show still has a major effect on our lives

Especially during this time of year plus we're gonna recommend some a plus comedy specials and a whole lot more

Plus as always at the end of the show I will reveal the movie that we will be covering on next week's episode

All right now

I've mentioned this a few times June and I are doing a brand new improvised

Multi-cam we are doing it in front of a live studio audience here in Los Angeles and

We have already shot our first few shows

But if you want to be in the audience to see one of these shows there is still time October 7th 10th 16th 21st and

24th all you have to do is RSVP to dinks that's DIN KS

Dinks RSVP at gmail.com that's dinks RSVP at gmail.com just say hey

I want to go see the show on the 7th the 10th the 16th the 21st or the 24th whatever you want to do and

We would love to have you. Oh, we've got great guest stars in the show. It is going to be a blast now

If you like scary stuff the movie that I did many years ago

Called slice with chance the rapper is now on Netflix. Yeah, it's a really fun weird vampire ghost

film with Zazi beats me chance the rapper. It's a lot of fun. Check it out. It's on Netflix and

Another movie on Netflix that stars June and I also have a brief cameo is stop that train the RuPaul film that I can only describe as

Airplane on a train. I mean it is so funny so unique so well acted

I really am a huge fan a stop that train both of them on

Netflix so get at it and by the way, I know I can't talk about it here

But unspooled has started a brand new YouTube channel and you should definitely check it out

Our first video I has a ton of views already we talked about weapons

Why don't you check it out and see what you think now enough about all that stuff because we have a big big

Issue in front of us and that issue is the layer of the white worm things that we might have gotten wrong things that we didn't put together

We had questions and you seemingly have a lot of answers and

Also more questions and also things that we definitely missed anyway

This is a chance for all of us to set the record straight. It is now time for

Corrections and omissions

Imagine this or your real pistol

We fucked up

We suck

Tonight you hear tell us everything we forgot

Corrections

Missions

Omissions

Once again for that theme song wow coming in hot

All right, let's go to the discord Johnny unusual rights

I know the focus of the catering at the party was on the earthworms in aspect

But the entire meal looks absolutely bonkers

It feels like it belongs in a Tim Burton movie with everything being slime green raw dead octopi

I mean there's even a fish head prominently displayed in the middle and it's funny to me that Kapaldi is only grossed out by the earth

Rooms and enjoys the rest of the food the entire meal is stomach churning from the get go

You know Johnny great call out there you can take a look at the picture of

The disgusting display of food on our discord. It's gross. It reminds me of Indiana Jones the temple of doom

Right, but then every now and then like we said in the show they might just be that they are

They're from the UK. I don't know tell me people is this what we're eating or is this pushing the limits?

I know that you're gonna say Paul you eat it and I have to say to you

I'm joking. I'm joking people and that's the best thing to say after joke. I'm joking

Anyway money not made says Paul said that Brahm Stoker's Dracula was an influence on Ken Russell

But didn't mention that the layer of the white worm is

Actually a Brahm Stoker novel this explains why everything seems old-fashioned in the movie because it's a contemporary mashup and

Take on the novels elements. Okay, well look I am

Only as good as my research and I think something got

I don't know messed up along the way

Because you are 100% right the layer of the white worm is a

1911 gothic horror novel is the final work published by Brahm Stoker and it is I mean shockingly similar right?

It's about Adam Salton a young man from Australia who moves to England to connect with his wealthy great uncle Richard

Adam discovers the area is terrorized by a predatory shape-shifting ancient creature known as the white worm and the monster takes a human form of a local aristocrat named

Lady Arabella March and Adam and his allies must battle Lady Arabella alongside an eccentric

Memorist named Edgar Caswell before the creature consumes to the local community now that actually sounds way better

I mean look I'm not gonna disc and Russell, but that actually that plot makes sense

Anyway, thank you money not made for making me smarter and me I'm gonna just just have to ratchet down my research people

Oh, you're gonna you're gonna see I'm gonna just rip them up to shreds

I'm gonna say money not made maybe do this stop crying money not made made me do this

Nestorix wrote the hosts were wondering the hosts. Why are you so formal Nestorix?

The hosts seems like you're like you're asking a question at some sort of like town hall

The hosts were wondering about the payoff involving the tactical

Mongoose it happens quickly, but the dead bloodied Mongoose is thrown into Angus's face

Just as he tries to peek behind the curtain in the finale

He also loses his glasses at that moment only for them to be perfectly positioned in the next shot

I believe the Mongoose comes from a bram stoker's original novel in which the main character keeps a pet Mongoose

To deal with the local snakes the white worm disguises a woman eventually rips it in half when it attacks her now

I knew I saw that Mongoose in action and just to point out we did talk about that Mongoose being carried around

In his guilt. That was a live Mongoose in his guilt

While he was playing the bagpipes it definitely had a lot of questions there how do you keep it?

But smoggy bubble wrote in to say dudes

You didn't even mention the hand grenade that he pulls out of the guilt and I guess my thought is

Yeah, didn't think about it didn't think about I thought that there's some like kind of tactical

underwear there, you know like some sort of garter belt where you can hand grenades off of there

But you're right that makes no sense, but once you see a man pull a live Mongoose out of a guilt

You stop asking questions at least that's what I do. Let's go to the phones

Scott from Maine

Hey Paul you briefly talked about the weird sexy flight attendant dream

But what you might not know is that this isn't the first time Ken Russell has sexualized members of that profession on film

His 1984 movie crimes of passion stars Kathleen Turner as a sex worker who dresses up as a flight attendant as a fantasy for

One of her clients in the commentary track for that movie Ken Russell talks about having a thing for flight

Attendance you also briefly alluded to my favorite scene in the layer of the white worm

Which is when Hugh Grant strumbles over a drum kit? I was hoping Jason could weigh in on this a bit

Does one typically set up one's drum kit in the bedroom right next to the bed? That's weird, right?

How's like that probably has a music room

But he keeps his drums in the bedroom in case what he wants to thrash out some paradiddles in the middle of the night

I've probably thought about this way too much

But is Hugh Grant's drumming what woke up the worm in the first place?

Anyway, love the show. Hope you guys come back to Maine someday. Thanks. Well Scott

We're gonna be back in Maine. I don't know if we're gonna be doing shows

But June and I go back to Maine every November we have some family there. We love Maine

We passed by that theater maybe we should do a show there because I think Jason has some family in Maine

Maybe Scott this phone call has put in motion a tour. Oh wait. It's already October probably not all right

Hey

Ken Russell having a thing for flight attendants. Yeah checks out glad that we got some confirmation on that look

About Hugh Grant having his drum kit next to his bed if

You know, I don't think he's doing two things at once. I think that you're either drumming or you're sleeping

It's not like he lives with his girlfriend. He's waking her up. I feel like that is a single man thing

You put your drum kit next to your bed just like step brothers, you know, it's like it's just there for you to just go to town on

But I like your point

I believe he did wake her up that horrible

Drumming that that that base drum did the deed

Scott you've cracked the case

Next up john steel

I apologize wanted to say thank you for bringing this incredible movie into my life my wife and I

Enjoyed it thoroughly and we'll be watching it every spooky season from now on

I know you guys had some comments about the white granny panties

That was another scene where

The actor was supposed to be naked and last minute she felt uncomfortable

So they clothed her assuming in whatever they had handy

I'm sure if they had more time maybe they would have given her something better, but

Just wanted to share that little tidbit. Thank you. Okay creepy

Well, not creepy. Look here's the thing here's the victory

Uh, an actress was uncomfortable and she wasn't made to be more uncomfortable

So he gave her white granny panties and oddly made us more uncomfortable anyway

Way to go Ken Russell somebody who uh

seemingly is very uh

Beto sexual in his imagery, but willing to say I respect an actress choice

Put on those fruit of allumes

Um, I appreciate that and it also does make sense because that final image is is kind of jarring

It just feels it's feels so weird um

But you know what scott also wants to chime in uh and say that on the topic of underwear Ken Russell later said

Being a royal lineage Catherine opted for herred silk

But as we were a low-budget movie she had to be content with marks and Spencer's cotton and very fetching she was too

Okay, well you didn't have to go creepy there

Again Russell, but I like that idea that you should add silk on that would have been great

But I if you can't afford all right hold on how much is herds underwear now again

Let's see how much that would be herds silk underwear goes for

Looks like and this is like let me I'm gonna make sure it's a women's underwear. Thanks for bearing with me as I'm just typing away here

I mean

Like 200 bucks

Not not crazy and that's in with inflation. I mean all right. We'll see um

Okay, yeah, I'm for the underwear. It's for the final scene. All right enough about underwear sheer let's go

To our next color who is this oh?

Jake hey guys not really a correction more of a context thing that I thought was really interesting

I am actually amidst of directing the production of Dracula at my local community theater and I had been doing a ton of research into

into bram stoker and

You still kind of like a mysterious figure even today

But a lot of scholars of of his really believe that

sexual anxiety is is a theme prevalent through

most of his books and

Obviously Dracula being the most famous one that there's a lot of different

homo erotic relationships there or the way that the the attacks are

depicted are meant to resemble very sexual

Acts revoke that kind of imagery

And that layer of the white worms seem to be of all of the his other books the the next one that really speaks to that of course took the warm itself being this very

phallic symbol so I think in a weird way

um as

Surreal as the imagery in Ken Russell's adaptation is I think it's actually like very faithful to

The themes that stoker was trying to convey

um obviously just in a very very different way

So that was all I hope you guys doing great. I love the show. Well Jake

I hope you have break a leg in this production and I love that you're doing a production around spooky season

um

I love this and I have nothing to add more than wow interesting

I've never really heard that sexual anxiety

Uh, and I feel like this movie is full of that and I imagine the book probably a lot more

Maybe in many respects Ken Russell is the perfect person to kind of pull it all together because he actually really

Leans into that whereas I feel like most you know bram stoker things lean into the sex

But not that anxiety part and feel like that this movie does definitely have

Elements of that too anyway, uh, we're gonna go Jake break a leg and finally

Marlene from Mexico City

Hi guys, I just wanted to talk about the scene where her lady sheep wears this

Earplugs to avoid being hypnotized rather suit by

and the back by

Junemensions that this is like uh snakes charmer scenario

Uh, the flute that Junemensions it's called actually called a bungee

But the thing is that rathers are deaf to airborne instruments

So music shouldn't be affecting her lady sheep at all. Anyways, uh, thank you for bringing this movie

It's absolutely bonkers. I loved it. I love how psychedelic

It is how fun. Thank you very much guys. I love that you call her lady Sylvia like that

Um now this is interesting

Uh, the way that you first of all

I love the the new phone system everyone sounds so crystal clear um

We were trying to figure out exactly what is true about this you are saying that lady Sylvia

Uh, shouldn't have had earplugs because snakes can't hear music, but then Scott he did research

Uh, and he said that yes you are correct snakes don't have external ears

So they can hear music played by a snake charmer's flute

Snake charming works through the visual tracking and defensive reactions

Rather than musical hypnosis snakes follow the swaying movement of the charmer's instrument and since the ground vibrations

Caused by the charmer's physical movements

Holy shit people we learned a lot here from herds underwear

to

snake charming and uh

sexual imagery and anxiety

This is

This is the greatest crop of corrections and emissions we've gotten in a long time now back to the discord for a couple more

A little pieces of snake info corgi heard her rights. I'm pretty sure lady Sylvia uses a tanning bet not to tan

But because she is like other snakes cold blooded and benefits from UV lighting

You know what?

I met somebody two day

Who pulled me aside to tell me this and if anyone walked by our conversation it must have sounded insane

Uh, I love this. I love all of this and I had to say

That there are so many great ones here so many

Uh, perfect

Little details that make this movie so worth it, but I have to say

The thing that I'm walking away with and I know that she's only half of the uh equation here

But I believe today's winner is

Uh, Marlene from mexico city because she taught me something I never knew. I mean Scott taught me the second part

But she set him up

So I feel like Marlene you can win and you know a lot of listeners wrote to us asking how Peter Capaldi fit so many strange items

And is killed so for your prize Marlene we are gifting you the most versatile item in Scottish fashion

I am of course talking about the Capaldi cargo kill that's right. What's so special about this one? Well

Killed the bagpipes because I'll tell you the Capaldi cargo killed has the largest hidden pockets of any killed on the market

Now you can show up your Scottish pride without worrying where to store your common belongings like phones keys

Wallace hey grenades or ferro mongooses and

Know the plural form of mongoose is not mongi's trust me

I looked it up using the large print hardcover dictionary that fit discreetly in the pocket of my Capaldi cargo

Killed and please know that while this killed offers ample storage it will not

Prevent getting your dick bit off by an immortal snake priestess. So enjoy

Well Marlene. I hope you enjoy that and I can't wait to hear about all the items that you store in your killed animals or

just simply

grenades or weapons whatever you want again

It can hold everything and for everybody else who didn't win that Capaldi cargo kill

Well, guess what there's always a chance to try next week. That's right every new

episode we have a brand new prize and you can leave us a voicemail at speakpipe.com

All in Jason a couple of cats just chat just chat

She'll be the

Jason how are you buddy hey here we go uh you know what listen we're we're coming up on spooky season

We started doing spooky movies. It's scary like a hell out of me

Um, but thank god. Is that a thing that you ever go to like will you go like I have been trying to get Jun to watch obsession

Which I think is such a fun like I will watch stuff

But I don't love horror like as a genre right that's not one of my

Go to moves

But when something is like an incredible like an obsession a

Hereditary of something that really you know burns up. I'll of course see it

But I'm not out here like just going through all the right you're not like I have to know yeah

I'm I'm with you. I mean I will tell you that

Some of the most fun I've had and I don't know if this considered a horror is like in Sam Raimi things

But like send help the new one that just came out. I didn't see it. Yeah. Oh, it's so

It's like yeah, because it's like Sam Raimi like and I think that's why like obsession two because it's like it's

It's scary but in the right way where I'm like I'm laughing. It's good like it's there's a there's a little bit more than just a cool premise and great kill

Yeah, it's not just like slasher or gory or what used to be kind of the torque the the torture porn

The like the hostels and it's not that kind of that stuff. I mean same that stuff. I just couldn't deal with so I feel like

It really takes something to burn to cut kind of break through

And feel like it has like a foot in some other genre. Yeah, that gets me kind of going on it

So yeah, but but boy, thank God in this spooky season. There's a lot of great other stuff to be

Tempering all this scary stuff with I mean you got you got you got you got like we can't be just out here so scared

No, we can't I mean you can't do it have you have you put up will you put up your big giant skeleton this year?

Okay, the answer is yes

Okay, and I'll tell you this which is really interesting and I thought one of the coolest things that's ever happened

our next-door neighbor they moved

and they are

Lovely people, but when they moved they put a clause in the selling of their house that the people who are living there must put up their

Giant skeleton right because because people maybe don't know or maybe they do yeah you in conjunction with your neighbors

Do a tablo of gigantic skeleton? It is it is up to three. We're hoping this year to get it up to four

It is something that

Obviously I drive into my house every day or you know hopefully you write into the house

It's just just jack a style like a bull just right through the front way to

and

But it scares me all the time coming home at night because it's like I turned the corner and I start to see the scale

It is a shocking look to see them. I love them, but I love that our neighbors and our new neighbors

Who we haven't even met that much, but they know that they have to that is so funny

I love that they have to be a part of it fantastic

I need a great thing

What a great thing to have as a part of your you like the buying a house

Yes, like to tell your friends well the one the only thing is I've got to participate in this Halloween tradition

You got to do it and and like what's your neighborhood like we I don't think we've talked about your neighborhood

My neighborhood is very so my neighborhood does not have sidewalks. Okay, so it is not very much

um

It's not a pedestrian. So there's not a lot of there's very few people who decorate and do stuff

It's not a neighborhood neighborhood in that regard you kind of have to go a ways away

To get into those kind of streets. So it's not very Halloweeny. I'll say or you're not getting kids knocking on your door

Never you know now we I will tell you that unfortunately

For the first couple of years I always would say to junas like can we go to like a populated neighborhood

Get the kids will like it and junas like no we're doing it here in our neighborhood now I will say

We have an area where there are sidewalks and then it stops

And we were hitting up those houses with no sidewalks for candy on Halloween and it was not going well

It was giving people tremendous amount of guilt

As they open the door they don't have anything and then they're just going in there covered and just grabbing

things and and it felt so bad

So I finally got you not for that. I'm like June we can't do this is a kid

In LA here and this is I mean, I'm sure this exists other places as well

But there are whole neighborhoods in LA that are shut down

So that they can be pedestrian walkways. Yes, and have no cars no nothing to create safe environments for kids to

So people will frequently drive to a neighborhood to trick or treat in that neighborhood because it's safe

A couple blocks away from me is one of those neighborhoods and

It

Has

Caused such anxiety with me because what I'm doing is I'm walking in to this area with

Like probably four to five kids because my my sons are bringing their friends

And there's a handful of adults, but then you're releasing it's like releasing

Four ants into an economy. It's like keep your eyes on these ants

It's like it is a constant distracteds kids. Oh, and they're dressed up as different carry

They don't look like they normally look yeah, and they're just and they're they're up in people's you know

There are in staircases and down the thing and you can't find them and everyone's looking at the same time

And then some people will bump into you like that you know and then you're talking to them and they take your eye off your kid

it was way more

stress-free knocking on people that just like rummaging through shelves giving us extra candy bars

But yeah, it is it is a nightmare, but my friends living one of those houses as we both have a friend who lives one of those houses

Where they have to buy like like 100 pounds of candy because it's it's just a number

It's in hundreds and hundreds of people come through because it's one of these designated neighborhoods

That's just shut down for trick or treating so yeah hundreds of people show up

Threats are probably thousands by the end. Do you enjoy anything on Helene? Look, I don't know you as a Helene

Okay, so you're just like you're not going I would rather I would I'll go out to dinner. I'm not I

I like it real that does that does not count as a Helene activity not that I'm I feel like you know a

Cremudge like I like you're not I'm a bit of a Cremudge in in that regard, you know, I mean like I I feel like

I don't really participate in Halloween. There have been years in the past where I've gone like with a group to someone

To someone's house to do to give out gifts or not to give out candy and hang out as a group activity

But but I don't do anything at my house. God, okay, no, no

Yeah, but I mean, but I don't know if you're like one of those people like oh, I live to get dressed up on how

I go to the party. Yeah, not at all not at all. I feel like and maybe this is I've never been a Halloween person

You know, I mean in terms of now I don't have kids because I feel like that's a big part of it

A big part of it, but like even even years ago when it was like and maybe it's because we get to dress up and be goofy

I always in our normal lots. Yes a lot

But like I'm in Halloween was never Halloween and New Year's Eve are my least favorite like nights

I couldn't agree with you more the the you and I have spent a few

New Year's Eve together and I love that version of it which is just I hang out. Yeah, that's what I want to do

I don't need to go blow it out of you

And the same thing I want to like I want to do like a game night or a dinner night. I just want to be

Having measured evening

Can I tell you something you know, I do like going to the theme parks that that's that's the like the oh yeah

The haunted nights and I've been to that in the past with you guys

To universal horror lights and and you know you're like now

I will tell you that one of the things I used to love there was this um billen teds

It was a very interesting thing. It was a billen teds like

Like a stunt show a stage show not even a stunt show a stage show where they did pop culture material

And it was canceled because it was so foul that it was if it was racist

The sodginess. Oh yeah, they they there are like some jokes

We were talking about this the other day and I was like I went online and looked I shouldn't even repeat it in a public

space, but I went online and just repeated some of the jokes that were in there and you're like oh my god

For a while it doesn't it doesn't make sense and it's like

It is

It's bad. It's bad news bears, but now they cancel it because it's universal studios and I couldn't do it

But the one place that continues to have this is not

Not scary farm. Yes, right? So this year and I took a picture of this it really killed me

There their show is called

new smaxing

So new smaxing is the name of the show. Oh no

Guys and and and big letters is as not for everyone and then they include a letter

and this is what they say on the bottom of it

That was dumb that was so dumb

It was like a here's a pop culture reference pop culture reference

It was like they were trying to do SNL

But it was written for two year olds. It wasn't offensive. It was nothing. It was just a nothing burger

It was remember berries. It was a nothing burger all the people there their talented, but it wasn't dumb

It was bad

That's the review that they put on the sign for new smaxing

There and it says they're leaning in their quoting it says idiot on YouTube now

I know this idiot on YouTube. This is our friend Peter or not our friend

The somebody we like from slash film formerly from slash film Peter

Satara not the musician

But like so they took his review of new smaxing and put it on their signs

And I have a feeling that people are leaving so angryly because it's like it's yeah

So bad that they now are advertising that it is it is not so bad that you will want to like you know troll it

And that's how bad it is like it's not even like it's so offensive

It's like it's basically saying it's not even it's not even very funny

And I just love that these are like I remember like the joke that I think I can repeat here is just stuff like

Somebody farce real bad and it's like oh no

Panda he must eat in kung-pow chicken like that like that was the level of like jokes that you're getting it

That's very good

Yeah, so I

Yeah, but now what has been fun is because it's harder for me to like organize those bigger groups

I'm bringing my kids to them and now I'm going to be the adult in the group

I kind of need like an adult

With me, but I'm just like adult supervising that's fun

And it is really really fun because most of them are afraid to go into the haunted mansion

So now I am just or the mazes and now I'm just hanging outside with a 12 year old just shooting the shit for 45

Oh

That's fun as hell though. I got that it is it is a fun new like stage of will you guys do a family costume?

No, or every it's everybody for themselves my one son is all of our tree

Okay, my other son is Bob Ross

Um, okay, and that's both strong hair choices. Yes

That's that is what we have got and my son is not even a fan of all of our tree

But he oddly gets obsessed with people who die tragically. So I think that he is like he is

He is a fan of all the tree and he so now he knows a lot about all of our tree because he's like researched it and and and there's a passionate about it

So bad about and then he also and this is what I see that gets me so worried

There's every now and then he'll say like do you think he faked his death?

And I'm like he did not he's like well, there's something I read online

Oh, you can't we're not we're not doing

That like there's a little bit. I was like I'm starting to see the the scene with the adria that sneak in and I'm like a cat

I got a nip this in the butt, but I'll talk it out. I won't make him feel dumb sure

Let's let's let's discuss this. Yeah, we'll be the reason of course. Oh my god. That is crazy

When I was a kid growing up we had a possum problem and

My stepdad would capture possums and keep them on the front lawn for Halloween

So when kids came up the trick or treat they would be completely freaked out by these crazy possums hissing and rattling their cages

Because he thought that was hilarious

It gave many people in the town a good good fright and it did also make our house a must stop on Halloween night

Anyway, that might have been a little bit cruel, but I believe that Halloween is built on a simple act of generosity, right?

Kids knock on a neighbor's door that neighbor gives them candy

That's beautiful, right? And trick or treat for unicef takes that same spirit of generosity

And gives families a way to pass it on trick or treat for unicef is a Halloween tradition that has been around for eight decades

Generations of kids have carried the orange boxes door-to-door collecting donations alongside their candy to help children around the world

Donations help unicef provide things for children and crisis including vaccines safe water and emergency relief

So this Halloween you and your family can help make a difference for kids around the world to give

Like a kid again and trick or treat for unicef visit trick or treat for unicef dot org to get involved

Now you have been your football season freeze. You're you're just

Oh, man, you're just pregnant. You know what I'm gonna say is crazy is as I just was in

New York City for a couple of days and had a couple of beautiful. It's starting to be fall in New York

I was walking walking around walked like 20,000 steps one day. Oh and

The still frequency with which people scream

Rafi or Rafi bomb at me on the street

For a show that we were in together called the league some 15 plus years ago

That show still has such and these were young people these weren't people our age who watched it 15 years ago

These were like 25 year old snowing Rafi bomb. I believe it especially during this time

Yeah, you know, yeah, my gosh

So we ended that show

11 years ago. Oh my god. That's yeah, so it started

16 17. Yeah, so that was the nine

Holy cow

Yeah, so it is 84 episodes

But people watch it especially around this time. This is the time where I feel like it is hot the streets are ready

It's because it's the lead up to football season. Yeah people still doing is fantasy football still as big as it was

Because I feel like when we were doing that show fantasy football was exploding. Oh well now it is not only it

It's it exploded it is out there, but now polymarket has made right now. It's like betting and stuff right?

Sleeper app and all this yeah, I'm in four leagues currently. Oh, yeah, I'm still in leagues and

Much to my sugar and on some of them. I just like to have one

But I'm in a great one which is

Hilariously that involves Adam Paley Scott Armstrong Matt Besser

Gerry Okona and

Oddly Ron Livingston

Chris Cooley and a handful of other people and

Matt Walsh and that's a fun one because

It's a lot of shit talking and every single person and it also gets very upset about the shit talking like I've seen

Riggle get upset. I've seen Jerry get upset. I've seen Scott get upset. They're all like

They mean it like it's like it gets past a point

Oh like I want time was just like shit talking to Besser. He's like oh, I'm trying to do the best I can

I'm like oh my god. I'm not I died like then I was like I can't do this. I can't

She's sensitive or too sensitive or too sensitive of a group of guys funny

Uh, but the only person who does not ever comment is Rob Cordray who is in there and wins all the time

Uh, it is winning all the time to say any of it doesn't participate in any of the nonsense. There to draft

Doesn't way like the text are coming all the time never weighs in on it. Yeah, never see him pop it

It's one of my favorite ghost a ghost guy for a while was Ron

It would yeah, Ron's like oh, yeah, yeah, I'm kind of the odd man out in this group and uh and no Ron is full

Ron's videos. Oh, yeah, he's doing the whole thing funny. Yeah, it is kind of a crazy thing

I think it's just grown and grown. I think it would be funny

To do that show now in the sense that the betting market of it is so

Wild like it's like yeah, that's really seems like that's much more the forward facing

Element of this stuff is that you can bet on all these things right? Did you see what Lebron has been doing?

Lebron has signed on to polymarket right and um and now I guess whatever that deal was

I think it's like wait that you mean as a to advertise it or as a

Yeah, right so like they're saying that he will basically make four times more from polymarket than playing for the 76ers, right?

So uh he is as a spokesman or like actually making bets. He will know as a spokesman. Okay. He basically got wow

15 million dollar

Deal and it's a crazy because

What he has to do and this is the thing that's kind of look 15 million dollars on this knees at Lebron's got to pay

You know what gas electricity bills. He got a lot of stuff. He got a you know pay this car turns

You know so but I guess it probably sounded really good in theory

He's got to make videos every week where he gives his picks

So he is on a couch and they CGI out his background they give him like a computer generated background

I was like okay, so I'm thinking Kansas City Chiefs and I'm thinking this and I'm like

You've got to go through the whole thing and it is it is cringeworthy to watch a superstar athlete who is

Still

Amazing player to watch not past his prime at all to sit on a couch and be like all right, so I'm like

I mean that's crazy to me that someone at that level would be doing would be stuck doing weekly ads

15 million dollars and it's like okay for every week of the football season

You have to give us your picks and I guess at a certain point is I got who cares like but it like it was shocking because I thought it was

AI I was like watching it. I was like this can't be him. This is not him right a campaign. What a bummer

It is yeah, so that is I mean everybody's doing everything. Yeah, it does and I don't think that there's any I mean look

I think there's a a little bit of negativity these

He's a professional athlete who is

Is it's coming out and doing it's professional really nuts? I mean the the the amount of people who are doing ads for

betting or crypto or all these stuff. I'm just like what what is this?

It really feels like the

Our friend Owen calls it the smash and grab era of humanity. It's like I don't know

Follow what's gonna be here anytime long. I got to take this money and go. Yeah, I gotta I gotta get these muslin x bucks. I got

Um, I was very happy to report that speaking of sports. I went on public Tore's show

Last week where I got to

Publicory brought down the clippers. I don't know if you've been following this story

Are you still writing checks to Kauai? Yeah, are you still I was feeding him a little bit of money on the side a little bit of how to just get made money

I'm too impressed that I knew even those

I've been holding on to that

To say to say some version of that joke to you on Mike. Oh, I am so happy that you did

I had to have the whole clippers thing explained to me

the um, this has been a

A real dark period of time

And so I was I was questioning of Pablo's reporting. I I just wanted to say let's like I don't want to a cast

Aspersions until the final verdict is in let's let the chips fall with their name they may and turns out

He was 100% right and uh and and probably didn't even touch upon a lot of the darker things that we're hearing each day

So um, but yeah, so we went on there and uh if if you are interested in my take on the clippers

With the reporter who brought down the clippers definitely check out me on public or a for now

We had a great time. He's a Pulitzer prize winning journalist and I I felt like I was going into the lion's den

To face a man who I never said anything negative about him

But I did I some opinions about his reporting, but I tried to man it up and and get in there

Great. I like it Jason. Um, oh, I'll I'll mention just you're mentioning stuff that you were on that show

You and I were both recently on the 10th anniversary

risk-assered um, dumpster episode. Yes dumpster episode

I've ever read in my life. I've been listening to it and also reading it and I'm watching it is fiction or non-fiction is fiction

And it is just a book where if you're not hearing the word

breast erection sex fuck

Blowjob on a page then it's like it's a rarity. I the book is so

A dearth of great stuff to recommend and already this year

I mean we've been saying shout out so many great

comedies this year that have come out movies
