No Instructions Needed
In an ever-complicating world, friendships are not easy. Remember what it was like to just sit down and talk about life? From sports to politics, movies, music, and business—and then, most likely, back to sports—we try to simplify all things past, present, and future through the art of argument and discussion. So, no matter how complex the issue may be, remember this: There are... No Instructions Needed.
No Instructions Needed
We'd Like to Re Introduce Ourselves
Are we back? Don't know? Maybe
okay, no instructions needed.
Speaker 3:I, I don't really feel like the poop, like your wiener oh, let me just get that right in the uh, the old camera shot, that's my thought I'm sipping on some red wine.
Speaker 1:Primary use for bitcoin is to get more money.
Speaker 2:Oh man the coog bar yeah, I'm into that hello this fucking ball hardly like I cannot start this at ease.
Speaker 1:I cannot risk it that's how I go to the bathroom. This is exactly how they're running, or whatever it is oh god, what it do, baby. Well, welcome back to, I guess, another episode, or a random episode, of the no Instructions Needed podcast. It is your boy, Chaps, and I am here with the Big D. You know the controls I've gotten almost a little better at. I mean to have this music continuing as we go wasn't a real thing back in the day, but now it is so.
Speaker 2:Big D. How are you doing? Are you real? Yeah, I'm real, man. Let's try to shake off the rust here. Give the people a good episode, or at least a half decent one. It's been a hot minute, but I'm excited to see your beautiful face and we'll give it a go, See if we're still any good.
Speaker 1:I mean we definitely. We were never good, so that's the start. We were never good at this, we were just having fun with it. A lot's happened in 10 months I I think, since our last recording. You know there's been super bowls, there's been stanley cups, there's been a hawk two year, two like. There's been a lot of things going on in in this world. Listen, if you hate hawk to a girl, you're like she just capitalized that. She was amazing, she did a crazy ass video when she was wasted and she is capitalized on. That's all we're trying to do. I want my hawk to a moment, dean, I want mine.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I want to hang out with celebs and see all kinds of cool places and people and go to sick events. I would capitalize on that, no problem. But yeah, that got old pretty fast for me. But if you still like it, more power to you.
Speaker 1:No, I'm not saying I still like it. Hold on here.
Speaker 1:Let's calm down. It got old within the first hour. That's the truth. But the fact is it's awesome to see someone realize that like listen, I am just a flash in the pan, I am a fucking nobody and I just need to cap like, because it doesn't happen very often. Right, like, a lot of people waste this opportunity I've had. I've known some people that have wasted opportunities like this. Like, just go out there. If you ever, in that moment where you get super famous for like, if you're going viral, capitalize the shit of it. Now, she got lucky, good looking chick, great accent, said yeah, he said some stuff, it was awesome, but like she, she capitalized, she capitalized on it. So if you get that moment, make sure you do that's. That's my only, my only motto. I need a spitter here, dean, you're gonna have to carry it for 30 seconds, one shot one opportunity chaps.
Speaker 2:There's someone else that uh, then pop it up on my instagram feed lately and in this the costco guys and you watch like five of their videos and they're all fucking exactly the same. Like they're all the same chocolate, double chocolate, cookie, like. And then the fat kid is like he's supposed to be good at baseball but like I don't know if he really is. But yeah, I watched a few of those videos and I'm like, oh, this is kind of funny. And then you watch like three more like oh wait, they're all exactly the same. Is this the?
Speaker 1:boom. People Like the ones that go boom. They're the worst. They're the worst.
Speaker 2:They go the boom.
Speaker 1:No man these people in this world like get the fuck out of here. Like leave me alone, you should not exist. You should not exist in this world. Like, why are you rich and famous?
Speaker 2:it's brutal yeah, you're famous because you eat all like the terrible food, that well terrible but yet delicious food that costco serves.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you better shut your whore mouth here real quick it's not good for you listen. My lifestyle since last time I was on here has changed completely. We home make like everything man, like pasta, fucking our own butter. We're like Amish now all of a sudden, like we're pretty much fucking Amish here. I'm going to work on a fucking cart and buggy here. That's so when you say, but when you say Costco food is terrible, yeah, very bad for you, very delicious. So though.
Speaker 2:Oh, that reminded me of a video. I can't really talk about it on on live air, though. Um so we'll move on. We'll move on.
Speaker 1:There's a reference is something bad I can see that you are still a little scared to to have some things to say. That's the best part about me i'm'm still going to let it fucking fly whenever the fuck I want.
Speaker 3:What else is?
Speaker 1:going on here.
Speaker 2:I got a bone to pick with you.
Speaker 1:Hit me.
Speaker 2:For the people that don't know, we are BC boys, british Columbia Canada. I'm in Vancouver, and in a month and a half almost two months, we are BC boys, british Columbia Canada. I'm in Vancouver, and in a month and a half almost two months WWE Survivor Series is coming to Vancouver and Chaps has traveled far and wide to see these events the big four, they call it. He's gone to WrestleMania in New York, new Jersey.
Speaker 1:I've never been to WrestleMania. That's a falsehood. No, I went to the Royal Rumble and I went to the. I went to the Royal Rumble and I went to a in Vegas. It was a. What the hell is that called the Elimination Chamber? It was wicked. It was a. What the hell is that called the Elimination Chamber? It was wicked. It was lots of fun.
Speaker 2:So Survivor Series, one of the big four In Vancouver this year. So if you can go to Royal Rumble in Arizona, surely, surely, you can take an hour flight To Vancouver and you know you can stay at the Hot Kid Residence and we can go to this glorious event. No, let me finish. Let me finish. Let me finish. Surely you'd say you could do that, but no, I have my company christmas party that day okay, I'm gonna talk now because this is blasphemous.
Speaker 1:Just so people know I own a company. I can't miss the fucking marquee event, the Christmas party.
Speaker 5:I can't do it you surely?
Speaker 2:can you surely can.
Speaker 1:Bad look. Bad look, can't do it. Yeah, I know, but awesome look for me, awesome look for you. Might not even have to pay for the tickets. But, in all seriousness, if you don't think I tried to move the Christmas party, you're fucking crazy, because I definitely tried to move the Christmas party 100%. I'm like, hey, we all need to do it. Let's do it Friday. We'll do it the Friday instead. They're like, no, I'm like, come on, man, it's Survivor Series, it's going to be War Games. Roman Reigns is back. What are we doing?
Speaker 2:Tony Rhodes, whoa.
Speaker 1:You're going to see such a good show. It's going to be awesome. I'm so jealous that you're going to fucking see it Nosebleeds are like $300.
Speaker 2:Let's call it Space Beer. I haven't watched wrestling in years. I kind of know what's happening. I've been alive wrestling in years. Um, I kind of know what's happening, uh. But like I've been alive 37 years and the last pay-per-view that was in Vancouver. That I can recall I was 12 and I was there and it was like a shitty one rock bottom it was called. It was like one named after the rock Um, I think there's only like one or two championships bouts when I was there too, but it was sick. But these tickets are like 300 beans, so it's hard to find someone that'll spend 300 beans to go. Even my buddy my one of my best buddies who still watches it. It's like let's just go and have a good time and crush brewskis. It'll be an expensive night, sure, yes, it will. However, the memories will last a lifetime and that is why someone needs to go with Dean.
Speaker 1:Oh I'm being so much trouble, but you got me always convinced here to skip my Christmas party. I'm not the only owner right, I'm not the only owner. There's other owners I can talk to.
Speaker 2:There's a couple of you guys. You know a couple of us we can do it.
Speaker 1:It's gonna be tight.
Speaker 5:The guy running the us.
Speaker 1:The us division probably should be there, I would think. But that's okay, uh, I will work on it. I might just accidentally be like crystal. I think we should bump it up again. I talked to pg golf curling club. They're cool with us doing it on friday. Let's go, let's's just do it.
Speaker 2:Let's be real here. Are you really that important?
Speaker 1:What a question.
Speaker 2:No, I could die.
Speaker 1:If I died today, the company would keep turning. There'd be a sad day, there'd be a nice LinkedIn post, all that sort of shit. But then tomorrow we need no PO. He would like it. Oh, thank you like it.
Speaker 2:oh, thank you appreciate it no, I would give it a thumbs up, you know, or a heart what? I don't even know what you do in linkedin. I never go on it, um, but yeah, you know, just consider it, just consider it I mean, I'm gonna try to consider it.
Speaker 1:I have now considered it. I can't go, but I would love to. I would absolutely love to. Uh, just want to touch on something here, really, really quick. Even though we're only 10 minutes in this, I gotta say this and, dean, you're gonna have to let me go for a minute here. Okay it's, this is good, this is good. I'm.
Speaker 1:This can be tough to get through, for sure, but, uh, two days ago I had I found out a friend of mine passed away due to a drug overdose and he got fentanyl poisoning from some laced drugs I don't know what type of drugs they were. Him and I haven't talked in about five years, let's say, because he was going down a rough path. But I knew this guy from the time I was 15, arguably, arguably till now, but he was in my life till 15, until uh, till I was about 24, and uh, he was a mentor to me and he was very important to me and my uh, my family and I know that I have friends that listen to this when we, when I do release it, that might dabble in some of that stuff. It scares the shit out of me that some of you guys are still doing that it does. I don't ever want to receive the phone call that I had on Wednesday night ever again. I just don't. And he was an addict. It was going to happen. It's unfortunate. I love that man, but it was. It's just. That was the path he was going down, and some of my people who I know that are still doing it.
Speaker 1:They're not addicts, they're just doing it record recreationally and just just stop. Just stop, because it's not cool. You're not a baller. You have people that care about you and you don't even know You're just going to be dead. So please, please, if you are listening to this, I did not want this to go. It was going good for nine minutes, but I had to get this out of the way. And just don't be stupid. You have people that care about you. You don't need to be doing that stuff. So, grant, I love you. I'm sorry I wasn't there and I miss you, man, and that's it. That's all I wanted to say. So, anyways, I don't know how to get out of that, but there you go.
Speaker 2:It's an important message, man. Obviously I'm very sorry for your loss. Didn't know the guy, but yeah, it's a scary game out there. You know, probably shouldn't play it right. It's the stomped on shit that you can get, is, you know, just so the dealer can make a few extra bucks. Is you know it?
Speaker 2:is it is, it's out there, people know it and they still do it and people die, right, and it's for a temporary high, a temporary moment of euphoria, whatever you want to call it. But uh, at the end of the day, man, you know it's not worth it, not cool.
Speaker 1:So well, okay, we're gonna. We're gonna transition out of this here real quick, because we do have a special surprise here. We're gonna add that special surprise oh no, right now so we are recording because we didn't know what I was about to have here what up, what's going on boys?
Speaker 1:the big O is back here on the podcast, as we just went through a very emotional moment talking about drug overdoses and uh, perfect time, perfect time. Uh, let's go. I was just crying like two seconds ago, legitimately, so uh, what's up big oh, how's it going?
Speaker 3:oh, way to make an entrance, boys. It is. It has been a long, long time and I'm sad to join at this time, at least for this topic, but really happy to see you boys. So, yeah, I mean damn, yeah, let's get the tears flowing for other reasons. What's going on, fellas?
Speaker 1:Oh, you know just living. I was just trashing some Marvel movies. No, I'm just joking, I was not the same MO as always.
Speaker 3:Feels like old times. Feels like old times.
Speaker 1:We were talking wrestling a little bit. We were talking a little wrestling.
Speaker 3:Are we talking bad blood?
Speaker 2:What are we talking about? No, I was giving Chaps a hard time because he won't go to WWE Survivor Series with me, because he has a company Christmas party Right.
Speaker 3:Fair enough November 30th Be there. That is tasty. So, dino, are you going to go without Chaps, or what's going on?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I just need to find a willing participant first. You know, Julian, at the end of the day, probably not. I'm not overly optimistic. However, you know, let's strike lightning in a bottle here. I got some friends who have feigned mild interest, but not a solid commit. No, he's got friends in low places.
Speaker 1:Yeah, actually, that guy's in a whole lot of trouble right now. No, he's got friends in low places. Yeah, actually, that guy's in a whole lot of trouble right now too. To be honest, garth Brooks has found himself in some hot, hot water.
Speaker 3:Oh, my Lord, we'll see how that progresses.
Speaker 1:He might be a murderer. We'll find out one day.
Speaker 2:Mass murder. I have a question. Here's a question on the Hollywood scene. Is everyone just a fucking terrible person? Is that what it boils down to? But before the age of people having a platform to say something, it just all got swept under the rug. Has this been the norm always, that there are all fucking just like atrociously bad people?
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I mean the rumor was that you had to sell your soul in order to be a superstar. You had to sell your soul in order to be part of this cult, and now it was kind of laughed upon and joked about. But the reality is it's pretty much all true. And I mean you look at like someone like Kat Williams who has like this incredible podcast with Shannon sharp and you know everyone thought it was like kind of like funny and he kind of you know how much of it is really truthful and it turns out everything that Kat's really saying is very much true.
Speaker 3:And now we have old videos coming out of old interviews with Diddy and Mike Tyson, for instance, where he's kind of touching his leg and Mike Tyson kind of hollows him out a little bit.
Speaker 3:Now you're starting to see, was this in front of our eyes this entire time and we just chose not to believe it? So it really seems like you have to sell your soul in order to find fame. It's unfortunate that we start to see like these stories where we have guys like justin bieber who you start to think about like what was this guy exposed to? As like a child, because, realistically, he found fame at a very young age and with these people who kind of groomed him. You know what kind of stuff did this guy had to go through? And then the other side of this is like is this vindication for someone like Michael Jackson? Because we're starting to hear now that like maybe he wasn't really a really bad guy, but he just had a lot of these things kind of told about him to make him seem to defame his character because he didn't want to participate in this kind of stuff. And it's a very interesting situation and I'm really glad that we're really diving into this kind of thing right off the bat.
Speaker 2:Lebron james is on that list and like he was like the actual poster child of like this is how. Like this is how you have a successful career. Like he's the family man he's never done so wrong. Like spotless as it comes. And then I think he said today he's like I'm not gonna comment, comment until more information comes out, like about him specifically. I might be, I'm paraphrasing it, I could have it wrong, but like he was pretty much saying like until people find out more about me, I I'm not going to say anything. Like until I really have to defend myself. Like that's fucked.
Speaker 1:So like all these, like. I mean like we are just jumping on shit right now. I was so happy that this is like yeah, I was right, A hundred percent. It's annoying.
Speaker 3:Like like we saw this with like Ep, the epstein list, and that was gonna like defame a lot of people and then the list never really came out and people just kind of started dying and that people kind of like just swept under the rug a little bit. But this one certainly seems like it has way more legs involved. As far as who this is gonna tear down like lebron james definitely is gonna be on there, but we're talking about like actors, singer people from like every industry and walk of life that we so much love, and sort of hold on this like high pedestal it's going to come crashing down and no one is going to be spared from this. At least that's the way it seems. And um, yeah, it's gonna.
Speaker 3:I mean, get your popcorn ready. If people thought vince mcmahon was a terrible person when they saw the Netflix special, this reality is going to be very, very scary for a lot of people in the next month or so. Once Diddy gets on that stand Diddy's going to be telling everybody and I don't think something's going to happen to him by security or anything like that I feel like this is going to get scary for a lot of people in high-ranking positions, not just in life, but also in our hearts.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's really surprising and like sad. Like even like the ashton kutcher, like they're saying now that like they publicly, they wrote that letter supporting danny masterson because, like he was gonna say like, hey, I know all this shit about you, so you like, and if you don't want me talking, like, write something nice about me. And yeah, there's like old clips of him talking about the party, saying like, oh yeah, I can't talk about that, but like we had some good times. It's just like I don't know that much, so you know if I'm getting anything wrong, I apologize. Like I read an article here or there but haven't done a deep dive. But it just seems like there are dozens upon dozens of people that are like willing participants in this lifestyle.
Speaker 1:I think that diddy was literally the worst person, slash the best person to be arrested because he ain't gonna give a fuck, he's gonna give up everybody. So that means dicaprio could go down like I'm like, I'm not trying to, I'm not like I don't want to. I want to be a little bit careful because I don't want to throw that at people and not like not knowing stuff, but like these are these are all the rumored people Like it's not.
Speaker 1:These are like the who's who we love, Like it is going to be, it's good, it's good. Just make it the trial, Did he please? I want to know we got it.
Speaker 3:It's funny because, like Leo was brought up in Epstein's, like the files and documents for Epstein, like his name was listed as like part of like documents. But with Diddy we're talking about like active and willing participant in these freak-off events. Like it's supposed to go crazy. I mean, I know that we kind of like lack of a better term piss on R Kelly for kind of his antics. Diddy is like a whole other level now and it seems as though like the records that that guy kept for everything is like as scary as it really can be. Because you know Epstein. Again we go back to that.
Speaker 3:You know, talking about Donald Trump, we're talking about like people who, like Harvey Weinstein, people who like were kind of like degenerate people that we kind of knew kind of had some shadiness to them. But we're talking about beloved people in our lives. Leo Bieber, everybody that we love and celebrate, are part of these parties. Can you imagine someone like LeBron James with a squeaky clean image? It comes out that he was doing all sorts of disgusting things, and I don't mean disgusting, as in people, different lifestyles, I'm talking about heinous, disgusting things involving potential whatever minors or whomever unwilling participants. Holy moly, this could be crazy. There's not enough redville popcorn in the world to prepare us for what's about to happen yeah, like obviously we need to know more.
Speaker 2:Like some people just could be like party attendees, right, and not not participate in the the bad stuff, right. So it's kind of like you gotta whittle it down, boil it down a bit more, but like still, like I'm sure there's gonna be.
Speaker 1:Some people are like uh-oh, that is surprising yeah, thank god, thank god that it's happening, though, because it needs to be brought to light, like it's like we need, this needs to be out there and and reset everybody that was involved with this and like get them, get them out of the limelight and let's you know, let's move forward as a society and and understand that people are evil. I mean, that's just kind of what it comes down to. Uh, one thing I want to bring up here really quick because I want to transition off this, because, because I want to be right about something here, about, uh, about two, about two years ago roughly, we all heard about the Joker 2 coming out and I believe I said this is a huge fucking mistake because you can't make that movie again. And then we found out it was a musical and I believe the term I said was this is going to be a disaster, this is not going to be good. Now it's come out this weekend and guess what?
Speaker 1:Nostra chaps was obviously 100 percent fucking right. It is going to bomb at the box office. It has the second lowest score of any dc project 33 percent of rotten tomatoes. And the killer to this? The killer, because usually DC projects are like, if they're rotten. Fan score high. Okay, fan score 35% on this movie it is. I'm not even going to see it. I've already plot read it on Wiki because I know I'm not going to watch a fucking musical. That's the first thing. But what about an high?
Speaker 2:school musical. No, I'm not. I'm not gypsy man.
Speaker 1:I can't do it. I can't fucking do it. I love me some Zac Efron and his dance moves. I love me some Channing Tatum and his dance moves. I can't be doing these musicals. Step Up closest thing to a musical I'll fucking get involved with. I said that's the closest I literally said that's the closest thing, just not. I get. I get you know what you're about. Chaps, chaps tax is coming for you.
Speaker 2:I mean, it's coming, it's fucking coming I would love the like fourth installment of chaps so many failures, just so many failures so many effects, so many effects just stop and like a stop sign comes up on the screen.
Speaker 1:So many effects it's so long to edit, it's exhausting hours and hours, and hours for three minutes, so many effects.
Speaker 3:Oh well, I mean I've never seen the first joker. I just I never, never bought into it. I mean I'm sure, listen, I, I heard it was great. Todd phillips did his thing, haqueen, you know, just doing his thing. But yeah, I mean you definitely hit the nail on the head when we found out that it was going to be Lady Gaga, that it was going to be just a straight musical, the radar was up like hey, what are they doing? What is happening? And then I mean I read a very similar article saying like this is like one of the first times where like the fan score and like the critic score are the exact same thing for it being like a piece of garbage.
Speaker 3:And I say that fully well, knowing that everybody who worked on this movie is better at their job for this movie than I am in anything that I do in life, this movie than I am in anything that I do in life. But, like holy smokes, what the hell were was anybody thinking at one point during the screenings or filmings or dailies or anything, did anybody say, hey, listen, we kind of missed the mark on this. Like superhero, movies have kind of been a little bit of a disaster. This might be a cool, fun art project, but this movie stinks. Like we have to be able to look ourselves in the mirror and understand that we're about to put this product out that like, unfortunately, it's just not very good for what it's supposed to be.
Speaker 3:And now you're gonna have lady gaga who comes like off great success with the movie she did with bradley cooper and her singing, and she was celebrated and she is going to be destroyed by a large group of superhero nerds that say what the hell did we do with one of our most beloved characters of all time and Harley Quinn, and then a queen who's just kind of like okay, maybe we were one hit wonder, maybe we struck gold with the first one, but like this disaster, a second movie is going to ruin you know, james Gunn's, even though he's not really part of it.
Speaker 3:Like he's going to ruin, like this kind of like rebirth that they were having with success of, like the new Batman movie and the Penguin and what they were building towards and the new superman movie coming out and being like maybe and I hate to say this maybe comic book movies are truly dead, maybe what we had with end game and, like the height of marvel, will never be replicated. And this is the dark time where it's like, hey, maybe we need to take 10 years off and start making movies again and doing it the right way. I don't know, I'll never see it, but I feel like that's kind of where we're going right now, and it's scary that's exactly what's going to happen.
Speaker 1:I think the Joker, I think it tied into the Batman. Judging from what I've read, it tied in a little bit to the Batman at the very end of it, which is, you know, not good, but either way, I knew it was disaster. Todd Phillips puts out a banger and then three movies after that all suck, and then it's another banger. Three movies suck, banger. That's Todd Phillips' career. He gets hot, he gets more power, more budget sucks. He's better at the 40, the 10 to 50 million dollar budget range. He's not good with 200 plus. He's. No, this was a 200 million dollar movie and it'll be lucky to make 150, truthfully. So, yeah, it's fucking crazy times, man. Crazy crazy times, man, crazy crazy times.
Speaker 2:I just thought the first one was okay to be honest with you.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was just okay.
Speaker 2:I agree People were like, yeah, he's good. He's good in everything, that's expected In everything. But the movie as a whole I guess could use more action scenes, am I right?
Speaker 1:Yeah, you know what they could have used. I found the joker in all seriousness being being a hundred percent uh, shoot with this. You know the joker probably needed, probably needed batman, right. I mean that would make some fucking sense, right, like like some sort of batman involvement, not just some kid named bruce way, and like you know, like that would have helped it for sure. I would imagine not having a Joker that's going to be 70 years old when Batman's fucking 20. Like, just God, so stupid, yeah, I feel like the.
Speaker 3:I feel like the Joker got away with like a cool, fresh story, like from a different perspective, and I feel like that's kind of how it hit lightning in a bottle the first time around. And then they said, oh hey, like we had this huge success being so creative, why don't we double down on the stupidity and do something even crazier? And people were like all right, like bring it back, we just want, we want the Batman, we want Robert Pattinson. Like all right, like bring it back, we just want, we want the batman, we want robert pattinson, we want you know, cool looking colin farrell, who apparently was a nightmare on set. We want kind of like the batman that we know and love and like what you're doing is a little bit too deranged for us. And now it's gonna suffer.
Speaker 3:And, like you said, you know todd phillips when he hits it on the head best in the game, but more often than not he drops the ball after the success. I mean look at the Hangover, first movie, arguably one of the greatest new takes on film. Second and third, one dog shit, complete dog shit. And Joker 2 is going to fall into that realm, unfortunately, of a terrible movie following a great success for that man. And you know what, give me 15 years and maybe Todd Phillips comes up with another banger. So we'll just have to wait and see and get our popcorn ready.
Speaker 1:I'm going to go through his Rotten Tomatoes scores here really quick. Here we go, okay. He came out with. Here we go. Okay. He came out with a movie called Road Trip 50 or Bittersweet Motel. You guys have probably never seen that, but Road.
Speaker 2:Trip was his first Road Trip was a solid film.
Speaker 1:So good, I'm not. Yeah, tom Green, it was a banger, okay, banger I think we can confirm b second movie was better.
Speaker 1:It was old school banger. That's a banger of a movie too. Back to back starts getting hot, terrible movie, awful like awful. And then school for scoundrels, scoundrels, awful. And then the hangover banger. And then due date awful hangover, part two, awful, hangover, part three, awful. Then that's his three bad movies. So, so Banger. Out comes War Dogs. That was a banger. It wasn't bad, it was a decent movie. It was okay. Maybe not Banger, but he's going the right direction. And then Joker Banger. And then Joker 2. Career over, hasta la vista. You are now M Night Shyamalan for the next 15 fucking years. It could be a disaster.
Speaker 2:Speaking of M Night Shyamalan do you know, what film I watched today.
Speaker 1:It's a trap.
Speaker 2:No, that's coming out soon on the streams. I watched Glass. Oh nice, I was like I came up on Netflix. I'm like I'll watch this. You know what I love me? Some Unbreakable.
Speaker 3:Can we agree that M Night Shyamalan gets a little bit of a bad rep, that his movies are like for what they are? They're not like terrible, they're not like everyone kind of like makes fun of him, like being like this terrible kind of thing. But like six cents banger six cents is arguably one of like the greatest cliffhanger twist movies of all time. Kind of like you need to re-watch it and people talk about it all the time. I didn't mind the village. The village, I thought, was kind of like it was an interesting take. I think they fumbled the ending of it but I think the idea was kind of cool about like the concept of it. Um, then there's the signs. Interesting, there's another cockney phoenix movie. Signs was like a decent one. Obviously that's following up the sixth sense, not like the same level, but it was a decent one. And then you have what was the other one that he had?
Speaker 3:Lady in Water is the one. There we go that was the other one I was thinking of and Unbreakable, decent movies.
Speaker 1:Unbreakable is a Dean top 10. It's probably one of the most un what's the word I still can't talk Underrated, underrated movies of all time. Unbreakable, it's phenomenal. His career was hot. He went six cents and then he wrote Stuart Little Banger and then he directed Unbreakable. He directed Signs, then the Village was. I thought the Village was okay too, but that was the decline.
Speaker 2:What about the one where the plants are killing everybody? The?
Speaker 1:Happening.
Speaker 2:I actually saw the movie with Bautista, where the world was ending and they have to choose who dies. Yeah, it wasn't bad at all, pretty good.
Speaker 1:It was good, but this run of Lady in the Water, the Happening, the Last Airbender and After Earth, that was his after awful run oh yeah, yeah, like he just sucked for a while.
Speaker 1:And then the visit will and jayden, yeah, and then the visit came out. The visit was, the visit was all right, it was all right. And then split came out and kind of got him back to top like yeah, hard, yeah, banger, banger, banger, banger. And then Knock on the Cabin and Old he's starting to. I don't know. I just watched Trap recently. Trap was alright, trap was okay. It could have been a little bit better Was that?
Speaker 3:the one with Josh Hartnett, where he's like a serial killer or something like that?
Speaker 1:He is a serial killer.
Speaker 3:There we go and we know that from the jump.
Speaker 1:I think the problem with that movie is everyone expects this twist from M Night Shyamalan. No twist, it is. Josh Hartnett is stuck in a concert and they're trying to find him because he's a serial killer. That's the fucking movie. That's literally the movie, and it's awesome, it is awesome.
Speaker 3:The twist is there's no twist. That's the twist.
Speaker 1:You know what? There is a little bit of a twist at the end. I should like how it gets all set up. Is the twist and it's a very interesting like you don't really see that coming, so I would say that's a twist. But that's a twist with any whodunit kind of movie, right.
Speaker 3:Shout out Josh Hartnett. Welcome back, Josh.
Speaker 1:Hartnett, let's go.
Speaker 3:Yeah, joshy boy Joshy's definitely not on Diddy's list, definitely not on Diddy's list.
Speaker 2:Well, never know, bruce Willey is clean.
Speaker 1:I'd like to think Probably. I hope so, but again, him and Demi Moore pumped out. He's coming to fame same time. I don't know, man, I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2:Let me change things up a bit. Has anyone been watching the MLB playoffs? Okay, chaps, hopefully you agree with me here. But how sweet is it that? All the. Has anyone watching the MLB playoffs? Okay, chaps, hopefully you agree with me here.
Speaker 1:But how sweet is it that, like all the underdog teams, Well, I can tell you this I turned on when Pete Alonzo was up to bat yesterday and he hit the finger just at that moment I'm like oh Whoa.
Speaker 1:I was like there's the, there's the playoff moment right there, Like that's baseball is so romantic and I don't know how else to explain it. It's just it. It's there's nothing. There's no clock, there's nothing. The game isn't over till it's over, and then people are just hitting bombs and like it. It's been cool to see detroit win. You know it's been cool some of these teams some of these teams win that you just don't expect. Yeah, yeah, fuck Casey. I always hate Casey.
Speaker 2:Casey got it right, man. They have no payroll and when they're good they take their shot. And then they're terrible for five years and then they get good again and they take their shot. I wish our Blue Jays might take an approach like that Just be bad for a little bit and then build up the system. You don't have a Bobby. Witt Jr, that it was like just be bad for a little bit and then and they are bad build up the system.
Speaker 3:junior and that's the thing. Right, like vlade, jr bo, those guys were supposed to be the cornerstones that the blue jays could build around and it just never kind of happened. And you have the royals, like you said, remind me of, like the 96 marlins, just a team of talent that we're going to look back and say, man, how did they have this kind of team with these kind of players who get it right? And then, basically, bobby Witt Jr, I guarantee you, five years from now may not be a Kansas City Royal, because he's going to be too good for that market. He's going to get paid by the Yankees, the Red Sox, the Dodgers that he's going to get paid by the Yankees, the Red Sox, the Dodgers, like some teams are going to swoop him up, some teams are going to trade for him. They're going to give him $455 million for two years and he's going to go because that's just the way the baseball is. Like chaps, you're completely right. Baseball, they're romantic when you see Pete Alonzo and you look at the Mets, who have kind of struggled the last little bit.
Speaker 3:This was not a season that they were supposed to do. Well, they've actually been shit on. Considering how big their payroll is, people forget how Jacob deGrom was on their team last year. They went out and spent money on Max Scherzer, turner All of these guys. They spent money on highest payroll in baseball. It doesn't work out. What do they do? They sell off all of their assets.
Speaker 3:This was not supposed to be a team that was going to be vying for a playoff spot, and this is the kind of team, though, like last year, you look at last year's World Series the two teams not teams that were romantic about baseball.
Speaker 3:You have the Arizona Diamondbacks and the frigging Texas Rangers Not teams that were like, oh man, for the beginning of the season they were going to be the teams. And now you have the Mets in a year where the Yankees are good again, where the Dodgers have arguably the greatest baseball player of all time on their team, like baseball has fallen back in love with the favorites, and I guarantee you there's an opportunity here where the Mets make it farther than the Yankees and really push the Dodgers who again, starting Yamamoto in game one which is interesting because he got hurt to start the year wasn't like this knockout player that they assumed was going to be a one-two punch with Otani the Mets can do some damage and it could be very interesting if we see some upsets, which I would not be surprised about as we got into the al and nlds oh man, like it's.
Speaker 2:I think detroit's payroll was like 18 million dollars or something like that. Yeah, it's like I think harrison or josh hater, who like gave up the home run or gave up all the runs on houston, makes more than the whole detroit team and he's a really good pitcher. Like it's just, yeah, it's nice to see the underdogs go for it. And, like you know, the Mets talking about the Mets, they had all this payroll, they shed it and they're like, okay, let's take, let's take some flyers on some players that like have seen success but have fallen off. Like Mania and what's his nuts? He used to play for the Yankees.
Speaker 2:Who was really good for the Yankees I forget his name the starting pitcher. They both paid them, like you know, their $12 million contracts and they've been very good for them. And like Casey, again, like they know exactly who they are. Like you said, they build the talent but they keep the heartbeat of the team. They actually pay him the money. It's Sal Perez. They're like, okay, we know what you are, we know what you mean to this team organization community. Blah, blah, blah. We'll pay you what you want to be paid and the other team will pay you and then we'll start. Just be patient. We're going to be shitty for a while and we're going to go from there.
Speaker 2:He's already won a World Series, screw it.
Speaker 1:It alright, guys, we're coming up on 45 minutes here. I think we're going to get out of here. Does anyone have any final thoughts before I start the outro?
Speaker 3:it was great fucking seeing you boys, absolutely amazing seeing you. Let's, let's get the baby oil ready, because it is going to be a very slippery couple of months and I can't wait to share it with all of you guys. Love you, happy to see you, boys, dieter.
Speaker 2:Oh, it's my turn. Okay, julian, I haven't seen that well-man manicured beard and that handsome face in in quite a while, so it's been beauty to see you. I talk to chaps all the time but uh, you know he's probably getting tired of me at this point, uh, but yeah, it's been fun. You know, before we start, julian, oh, what's that music? Uh, we said we're going to go for 20 minutes. We've doubled that, so it looks like we've got some shit to talk about. Maybe we can keep this going and Chaz finishes off Alright guys.
Speaker 1:Thank you very much for downloading. Maybe we'll be back, maybe we won't be, I don't fucking know Maybe next week, maybe possibly next year.
Speaker 4:Whatever, listen to that criticism about our hometown, but if you ain't from here, you're done. No, don't come around this, our Mayday.
