Talking Scienfeld has brought to you by
the four Finger Discount Network. So Saturday

2
00:00:05.559 --> 00:00:08.560
night, she had to be impressed
by that conversation, had to it was

3
00:00:08.599 --> 00:00:12.119
a great performance. I am unbelievable
on the phone on the date. That

4
00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:23.120
should just have two phones on the
table at the restaurant Saturday night. So

5
00:00:23.399 --> 00:00:29.320
what did you say? You said
you're getting to get Saturday night. That's

6
00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:36.960
it. She didn't mentioned anything about
the conversation. No, well, you

7
00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:41.439
see, I don't get that.
We had a relaxed, stimulating, great

8
00:00:41.439 --> 00:00:44.679
conversation. She doesn't mention it.
Why doesn't she mention it? She couldn't

9
00:00:44.679 --> 00:00:47.920
mentioned the conversation. All right,
all right, I'll go on the date.

10
00:00:48.039 --> 00:01:06.079
But that's that. Welcome to Talking

of your support? All right? To

19
00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:34.439
fix up, mister Davis. This
was a really, really fun episode.

20
00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:38.200
This was sort of like this is
classic Scifer in the sense that it was

21
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:44.239
very dialogue heavy, just long conversations. Not a lot of different set pieces,

22
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:48.319
just long conversations in like Jerry's apartment
and on the phone, which were

23
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:52.200
just felt so real, felt like
a conversation you could still have today.

24
00:01:52.319 --> 00:01:55.040
I just I just I just loved
it. I thought that, um,

25
00:01:56.000 --> 00:01:59.400
Cynthia, what a character. Well, of course you're gonna like Cynthia because

26
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:02.359
she, of course is played by
in the in the credits of this episode,

27
00:02:02.400 --> 00:02:06.879
she's Maggie Jacobson. She may be
known as better known as Maggie Wheeler

28
00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:12.520
and Maggie Wheeler of course played Janis
on Friends, which is the subject of

29
00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:15.919
the One about Friends, another area
podcast from the Fourth fe or Pals at

30
00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:19.919
the four Finger discount network, and
my wife and I host that show.

31
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:22.800
So even you enjoy some Friends,
make sure you check out that one,

32
00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:24.639
the One about Friends byes Guy.
As you were saying this episode. Just

33
00:02:24.759 --> 00:02:31.319
a terrific performance by by miss Wheeler. Yeah, just I don't know if

34
00:02:31.319 --> 00:02:35.319
we ever, do we ever see
Cynthia again, Does she ever make another

35
00:02:35.319 --> 00:02:38.319
appearance? Yeah, I mean she
just lit up the room and left because

36
00:02:38.719 --> 00:02:44.479
she felt very much in sync with
the Seinfeld style, you know, played

37
00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:50.080
well off. So yeah, but
I think the bulkore scenes were with Julia

38
00:02:50.120 --> 00:02:53.120
Louis Drivers and those two year they
bounce off each other really well or played

39
00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:54.639
off each other really very very well
well, So I think we don't see

40
00:02:54.639 --> 00:03:00.599
all that often is Elaine having a
female friend to bounce off from long portions

41
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:01.680
of time. So, like she
said, she's had friends on the show,

42
00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:06.639
but they've usually been bitchy or whatnos
Nor roommates annoying having her with a

43
00:03:06.680 --> 00:03:09.159
friend who's on the same wavelength and
having a kind of like a Jerry Eline

44
00:03:09.199 --> 00:03:15.240
kind of conversation a Bard. Yeah, they've sort of seen both equally neurotic,

45
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:20.360
Yes, I guess, And I
think looking at it, Elaine sort

46
00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:22.960
of has if she feels like she's
kind of got the upper hand in this.

47
00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:27.280
It's like, oh, she likes
her friend clearly, but also recognized

48
00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:30.280
that her friend has a few flaws. Few folds or whatever, and it's

49
00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:34.039
an opportunity to feel a bit a
bit good about yourself. Like Jerry says

50
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:36.560
at the very end of the episode
when he's talking about fix Up, he

51
00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:38.599
goes, you know, that's a
good thing, but it's also a power

52
00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:40.439
trip for you. You're the one
who's you know, sort of steering things

53
00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:44.520
in the direction that you think they
should go in. That's why Jerry did

54
00:03:44.520 --> 00:03:46.639
this. Jerry didn't really want to
set up because he wanted George to find

55
00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:50.639
happiness. Even he says, he's
like, I just won't work out.

56
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:53.759
He just wants to be able to
have the goss, wants to be the

57
00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:58.360
puppet master. Yeah. So look, one thing I did notice about this

58
00:03:58.400 --> 00:04:02.960
episode, and look, I'm gonna
sound like I'm losing my marbles here or

59
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:08.599
losing my memory or whatever, but
Seinfeld just had canned laughter before, right,

60
00:04:08.719 --> 00:04:12.680
or I had sort of audience participation
laughter. It felt really over the

61
00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:15.519
top this time. It felt like
there was a lot of canned laughter or

62
00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:18.839
studio laughter, or live in front
of a studio audience laughter. It just

63
00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:23.959
maybe the show was gaining popularity.
But you know, you notice it's I

64
00:04:23.959 --> 00:04:26.839
think it's I've got it like as
my fifth or six point, He's like,

65
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:30.639
very obtrusive applause, very obtusive laughter. And you know when kramerinds like

66
00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:35.879
Cramer. That's the most substantial reaction
he's received on the show so far.

67
00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:39.000
I think when he's watching the room
like it was like to the point where

68
00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:42.360
you couldn't even hear him, and
he could tell that Michael Richards just just

69
00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:44.800
moved on. He was like,
I'm not fucking waiting because when you wait

70
00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:47.279
for the applause, it sort of
kills the kills my momentum of the story,

71
00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:50.000
doesn't it. It really does,
And I think you know enough people

72
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:54.560
sort of take the piss out of
that where someone sounding basking and basking it

73
00:04:54.600 --> 00:04:58.160
Okay, now I'll start my line. It's like, don't forget why we're

74
00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:00.680
here, guys. We had to
tell this particular story and this and this

75
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:04.160
was a good one. And Larry
David he made a point I remember watching

76
00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:09.040
it in the DVDs that he hated
the crowd responding to crame it where he

77
00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:11.319
said, you can get to the
point where that to just tell people when

78
00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:15.319
he enters, you remain quiet or
your laugh or whatever, it's not look

79
00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:19.879
because he could see that Cramer was
becoming, you know, the the f

80
00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:23.600
the Fonzie of the show, and
it's like, no, no, this

81
00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:27.560
is sign Feld, not the Cramer
Show. Because once once one character sort

82
00:05:27.560 --> 00:05:30.800
of takes over, it's hard to
pull it back. It quickly becomes the

83
00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:32.360
show about them. Well, it's
like, we, you know, we

84
00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:35.839
recently recorded an episode of Going Down
to South Park where we talked a bit

85
00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:43.040
about the old sitcom Good Times.
That quickly became the donal Mate Show because

86
00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:46.279
the character JJ kept sing and everyone
was really happy about that as opposed to

87
00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:49.240
the stories that the show was telling. So, um, yeah, no,

88
00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:54.199
I'm holy with Larry David on that
about you know, you guys shut

89
00:05:54.319 --> 00:06:00.560
up. Larry comes out specifically shut
the fuck up. So it wasn't just

90
00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:02.720
the Cramer entering the room. It
was when Elaine says something. It was

91
00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:09.079
like the who you told him?
Girlfriend? That what's going on here?

92
00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:14.279
This isn't Married with Children? I
know? And was it the Simpsons that

93
00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:16.879
took the piss out of that?
Were you know, you know they were

94
00:06:16.920 --> 00:06:19.319
doing the Married with Children. I'm
trying to remember the thing that took the

95
00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:23.120
piss out of Married with Children is
like Simpsons did it and it's like,

96
00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:27.720
no peg and then he flushes the
toylet. Oh, let's have sex,

97
00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:32.680
no piglet. Anyone's like oho,
And it's like, yeah, yeah,

98
00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:38.600
I can understand if you're a creative
individual, you've careered to show. You

99
00:06:38.680 --> 00:06:41.160
sort of poured your heart and soul
and energy into it. And you know,

100
00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:45.439
it sounds churlish to say, oh, you guys are digging it for

101
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:49.720
the wrong reasons, but you know, if you've got a vision of something,

102
00:06:50.480 --> 00:06:53.920
I don't know, I think you're
also anticipating the response to it,

103
00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:57.639
and when the response is different to
what you had in mind, you could

104
00:06:57.639 --> 00:07:00.519
probably get a little frustrated by that. But they'd never been in a show

105
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:05.040
in this format before Seinfeld, where
they'd prevented the audience from participating like that.

106
00:07:05.560 --> 00:07:08.480
It's just like, oh, this
is a live sitcom. He's the

107
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:12.480
funny character. He's like the the
wacky neighbor. That's who we're supposed to

108
00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:15.040
gravitate towards. He's the see him
all that often usually, so it's like

109
00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:17.720
when he comes on stage, like
oh, yeah, he's our favorite's like

110
00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:20.000
no, no, this is different. People, Shut the fuck up.

111
00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:25.199
This isn't fucking Morgan Mendy, this
is this is si Feld. But yeah,

112
00:07:25.240 --> 00:07:28.199
I really enjoyed that. And also
I watched the on the Inside Look

113
00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:30.079
Again, which is like a little
bind sand Stocker on the DVDs. And

114
00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:34.040
Jason Alexander has said that this was
sort of when the show writers and the

115
00:07:34.279 --> 00:07:39.120
show runs realized that he was willing
to have his physical attributes really be the

116
00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:42.600
butt of a joke. You know, he's not fat, he's strong,

117
00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:45.160
and he says like he was willing
to be, in his words, a

118
00:07:45.240 --> 00:07:46.839
sexual buffoon. And once sort of
like because he said at this point,

119
00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:50.079
Larry's sort of he'd write jokes about
being bored and things like that. You

120
00:07:50.199 --> 00:07:53.639
sort of look at George, I
sort of look at Jason, you okay

121
00:07:53.680 --> 00:07:55.160
with this? And he'd be like, yeah, I'm fine. But this

122
00:07:55.199 --> 00:07:58.079
is like this episode here was when
they truly realized, Okay, we can

123
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:00.680
have some fun with George's weight,
and we can, and Jason's not going

124
00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:03.000
to feel bad about it. He's
willing to. He accepts who he is.

125
00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:05.120
This is who he is, and
he's going to make the most of

126
00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:05.680
it. And you know what I
mean. And yeah, this is sort

127
00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:09.279
of where he says the George character
really flourished and they could really realize,

128
00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:13.079
hey, we can make fun of
him being born, make fun of him

129
00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:16.199
being fat and short and things like
that, and that would go on to

130
00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:20.480
become a rural part of the character
going forward. It's great when you've got

131
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:24.680
a performer like that, who's just
I guess feel as Bulletproof gets I think

132
00:08:24.680 --> 00:08:28.720
that's the Yeah, it's like,
okay, well this is what you're working

133
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:33.679
with. You take advantage of that. Yeah. Yeah. It was written

134
00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:37.360
by by Larry Charles and Lane Pops, and they have said that um or

135
00:08:37.440 --> 00:08:41.360
Larry said that this happened to them. So they they had friends and they

136
00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:43.559
try to fix them up and it
just went terribly. That's where I got

137
00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:46.519
the idea for this. They pitch
it to Jerry and Larry and they said,

138
00:08:46.519 --> 00:08:48.600
you go right this straight away.
And they won the Emmy for this

139
00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:54.519
episode for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Writing
in a Comedy Series and the Seinfeld's first

140
00:08:54.519 --> 00:08:56.159
Emmy, I believe. Yeah.
Yeah. And a cool little thing is

141
00:08:56.159 --> 00:09:01.519
that Jerry actually read out the winner
at that year's award show, and they

142
00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:03.600
knew that Jerry was going to be
reading out the under the award. They

143
00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:05.440
didn't never going to win, so
they said they were in the lima on

144
00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:07.879
the way there and he wrote like
this speech and it goes for like five

145
00:09:07.879 --> 00:09:09.440
minutes, and they got there,
like you realize, if you win,

146
00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:11.919
it's thirty second, he's gonna get
five minutes. And they just they scrutched

147
00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:15.720
that up and wrote a new speech
for Jerry to read for them, and

148
00:09:15.799 --> 00:09:18.960
you can actually find this on on
on YouTube, and it're gonna goes for

149
00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:22.440
like thirty seconds or so. But
Jerry's reading the speech and it's they wrote

150
00:09:22.440 --> 00:09:24.759
it in the way that Jerry is
talking himself up, like you know,

151
00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:26.840
he's a humanitarian and he's this and
the other. And then Larry Child rips

152
00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:30.720
the note out of Jerry's hand says, coming, that's enough, as if

153
00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:33.039
to say Jerry was like taking into
advantage of the situation. But like it

154
00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:37.159
was very, very funny. I
thought it was cool that Jerry Seinfeld got

155
00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:39.480
to read out the first Emmy Award
win for Seinfold, Like what are the

156
00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:46.080
others? That's fantastic. Yeah,
And also I like that they still reference

157
00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:50.080
the past. Um So Elaine mentions
how George tried to poison his boss and

158
00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:52.679
that's exactly what happened when he got
fired, remember in the Revenge. Yeah,

159
00:09:54.240 --> 00:10:00.759
that is a good one. But
what were your favorite moment from The

160
00:10:00.840 --> 00:10:03.120
Fix Up God? First of all, Yeah, just a great moment in

161
00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:07.080
editing where it's in the very early
scene where you I think it's Synthia saying,

162
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:09.480
oh, she's hopeless or she's desperate
or something, and they cut to

163
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:16.159
George's eating spaghetti really badly or just
being an absolute slob. I thought that

164
00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:20.159
was fantastic, and it's a nice
sort of seed plant for you know,

165
00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:22.399
the very end of the episodes.
I thought that was great. One thing

166
00:10:22.399 --> 00:10:26.279
I noticed, and you know,
this is done in the early nineties,

167
00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:31.159
so people we may well be taping
it on their on their videocachet recorder.

168
00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:35.960
Yeah whatever. But there's something I
noted that Jerry has his shelf full of

169
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:39.519
videotapes and there's a scene that actually
takes place right in front of that,

170
00:10:39.559 --> 00:10:43.080
and I'm pausing. There's some of
the titles on these videotapes, and I

171
00:10:43.240 --> 00:10:48.320
wrote some of them down. They've
got titles like easy Love, Gunfights,

172
00:10:50.480 --> 00:10:52.759
rug Burn, and one is just
called the title. So it's like,

173
00:10:54.200 --> 00:10:58.200
I'm wondering who you know, if
there was a production design manager who did

174
00:10:58.240 --> 00:11:03.039
that, or if it feels like
something Larry David would do. Let's look

175
00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:05.639
at si VHS tape titles. Whether
it's like one of those things that they

176
00:11:05.720 --> 00:11:07.840
change each episode, because like,
for example, in Friends, they have

177
00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:11.960
the chalkboard or the whiteboard on the
back of the channeler and jobby store or

178
00:11:11.960 --> 00:11:15.840
whatever, is the us to write
something different on every episode. Let's see

179
00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:18.399
if that's the thing that goes on
in Seinfeld? Does anyone know the meaning

180
00:11:18.399 --> 00:11:22.039
behind the titles? Look at look
at it Reddit thread here from last year

181
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:26.360
or the VHS tapes. What are
the ones that you had? Easy Love,

182
00:11:26.080 --> 00:11:31.240
gun Fights, Rugburn, that's probably
my favorite. Yeah, yeah,

183
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:33.559
so we've got easy Love. Gun
fights are great men. He's another one

184
00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:37.159
here, so yeah. So obviously
it's just something that's made up. I

185
00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:39.120
guess. Yeah. I don't think
these are actual. I mean it's like

186
00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:43.840
Rochelle Rochelle or prognosis neg no,
no, no, no, it's just

187
00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:46.399
someone who got bought or it's like
quick, we need titles. It's like

188
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:52.799
title. But you know, I
mean, if if you're seeing something like

189
00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:56.039
easy Love or Rugburn, you're assuming
these might be pornos. Yeah that's true.

190
00:11:56.039 --> 00:11:58.080
But no. The thing is,
though, this is an era where

191
00:11:58.240 --> 00:12:01.399
freeze framing isn't really a thing.
You didn't really put any easy. I

192
00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:03.840
know the Simpsons were putting you in
there, but the Simpsons pulled out of

193
00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:07.360
Eastern reag into the show not expecting
anyone to ever finally except for themselves,

194
00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:11.000
like they knew they'd be in there. But people, but people at home,

195
00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:13.519
would never actually pick up on it. And then DVDs came around,

196
00:12:13.559 --> 00:12:16.080
It's like, oh shit, we
can't hide anything anymore because they can free

197
00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:18.279
name it. But yeah, I
think the idea would have been just quickly

198
00:12:18.360 --> 00:12:22.320
just write anything on that, like
gunfights. That's pretty cool. What else

199
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:28.879
did you enjoy? I like this
bit about about buying condoms at the at

200
00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:31.200
the pharmacists at the cameras do stand
up, wasn't it? Yeah? It

201
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:35.399
was good stick. I mean,
something I've never understood though, is just

202
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:39.799
the embarrassment about buying condoms. Yeah, you know, it's like telling the

203
00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:43.399
world you get late, what's wrong
with it. That's why I always sort

204
00:12:43.399 --> 00:12:45.080
of looked at when I bought someone
I was younger, I was like,

205
00:12:45.240 --> 00:12:50.120
that's right, I'm getting lucky,
unless, of course, you know you're

206
00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:54.480
thirteen years old or would well,
of course they were probably thirteen year olds

207
00:12:54.480 --> 00:13:00.799
out there who are getting laid good
on them. Yeah, it's and also

208
00:13:00.799 --> 00:13:05.559
a acadims way being shy about it. So you buy the actual large ones.

209
00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:11.840
It's like they're looking mate, come
on, I'm happy to sell them

210
00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:16.559
to you. But yeah, let's
be realistic. My favorite goals high.

211
00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:20.720
That's fine, But I really enjoyed
George just immediately giving up when he finds

212
00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:24.720
out that Cynthia didn't mention the phone
call. Oh well, I'll go did

213
00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:28.240
it. But that's it. That's
it's over, immediately admits and concepts.

214
00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:30.759
That's just going to be finished.
I thought that was cool. I really

215
00:13:30.840 --> 00:13:33.960
enjoyed the hair conversation. I think
lustrious hair is important to me. It's

216
00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:37.879
important to you. Yeah, okay, I just want to clarify to you

217
00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:41.159
it's very important thick, lustrious hair. Okay, then and well the heir

218
00:13:41.200 --> 00:13:45.200
get stuck. I just thought Jerry's
response, and that was really Jerry is

219
00:13:45.279 --> 00:13:46.360
very well. He's getting very good
at acting like Jerry. In the first

220
00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:50.080
few episodes, first a couple of
seasons. Yeah, hit and Miss.

221
00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:54.559
He's really finding his groove now.
They're writing lines and comedy that fits his

222
00:13:54.639 --> 00:13:56.320
abilities. That's yeah. I think
there's a few things in there, and

223
00:13:56.360 --> 00:14:01.639
then one of those is very bang
on that you know, they know what

224
00:14:01.960 --> 00:14:07.039
the writers know what he's capable of, and tailoring the dialogue and the exchange

225
00:14:07.159 --> 00:14:11.320
is all that to suit him.
But also I think he's getting more and

226
00:14:11.399 --> 00:14:15.279
more comfortable and more and more familiar
with the people that he's working with.

227
00:14:15.600 --> 00:14:18.480
Yes, you know, and they're
able to pick up on each other's rhythms.

228
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:20.480
Like they say, if you want
to be a good chess player,

229
00:14:20.519 --> 00:14:22.799
you play someone who's better than you. Jason Alexander and Julie Louie Draffus and

230
00:14:22.799 --> 00:14:26.559
Michael Richards, they've all done their
time in sketch. I think Julie Louie

231
00:14:26.639 --> 00:14:31.120
Dreffus was on Saturday Night Live.
Michael Richards was on another TV sketch show,

232
00:14:31.639 --> 00:14:35.879
a sketch comedy show, yess.
Alexander's an actor, so you know,

233
00:14:37.399 --> 00:14:41.440
these are all people who sort of
have a bit more experience than than

234
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:45.000
Jerry, and I think working alongside
them or working with them, yeah,

235
00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:46.879
it makes him a bit stronger.
It's not just confidence with who he's working

236
00:14:46.919 --> 00:14:50.360
with I think as his confidence in
the show is now finally succeeding the show

237
00:14:50.440 --> 00:14:54.639
that people are now being as a
hit show. So he's just got that

238
00:14:54.679 --> 00:14:58.600
sort of he can tell. He's
sort of got that little aura of confidence

239
00:14:58.600 --> 00:15:01.279
around him now where the first couple
of seasons it was kind of like,

240
00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:03.480
yeah, I'm still trying. Yeah, I'm still trying to wigger who I

241
00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:07.120
am. And now it's just like
I'm Seinfeld from Seinfeld. You know this

242
00:15:07.519 --> 00:15:09.159
show is all about me. And
he's just he's got the confidence. He

243
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:13.600
can really really tell all the way
he's acting. Also, my final thing

244
00:15:13.639 --> 00:15:18.080
here is George's excitement add impregnating somebody. I can do it. I did

245
00:15:18.080 --> 00:15:22.440
it. I did it. Say
my boys can swim, My boys can

246
00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:26.039
swim. They did it. I
can do it. It's so funny,

247
00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:28.879
Like that's the feeling when when Nikola
first said she was pregnant. I was

248
00:15:28.960 --> 00:15:31.559
like, damn, I work,
they work. We did it. Boys.

249
00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:37.320
Could you spell that? Please?
No? Next question, It's time

250
00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:41.679
now for some trivia for the fix
up. But before then, trying to

271
00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:56.879
now time, mister Davis. After
reading all those names, my breath back,

272
00:16:56.639 --> 00:17:00.320
what's ther first question? I don't
have that many, okay for you,

273
00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:07.640
I'm sorry, but let's start with
how much can George lift one hundred

274
00:17:07.640 --> 00:17:11.480
pounds? He can lift one hundred
pounds, which is why let's have a

275
00:17:11.480 --> 00:17:17.640
look, say something like fifty five
and two kilos? It is forty five

276
00:17:17.839 --> 00:17:21.400
when I was just wrong. It's
not too bad. It's getting there.

277
00:17:21.519 --> 00:17:26.640
My first question is Bob Sacamano got
a job at a condom factory where it

278
00:17:26.680 --> 00:17:29.799
was in Jersey? Right, I
was in New Jersey. I'm pretty sure

279
00:17:29.799 --> 00:17:32.480
they just say Edison, but yeah, oh okay, then I'm pretty sure

280
00:17:32.559 --> 00:17:34.680
Edison is in New Jube. Yeah, but that's just yeah, okay,

281
00:17:36.359 --> 00:17:40.759
okay. One point I was about
to say I was right, except I

282
00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:48.000
was wrong. How long did the
conversation between the phone conversation between George and

283
00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:53.119
Cynthia? Last good question I want
to say, was it, oh,

284
00:17:53.160 --> 00:18:00.240
ship three hours? It's twenty minutes. Only twenty minutes? Nice? Yeah,

285
00:18:00.279 --> 00:18:03.039
okay, there you go. My
first My next question is what word

286
00:18:03.039 --> 00:18:11.799
does George used to describe Cynthia's voice? There's meliflus Yes, what's your next

287
00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:14.000
question? Do you have any more? If I stolen your last one?

288
00:18:15.039 --> 00:18:18.160
Melifluis was my last quass same?
My final question is what time did they

289
00:18:18.160 --> 00:18:22.119
get home from their dates? Was
eleven eleven pm? It's a little bit

290
00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:23.480
later than that. They say,
Oh it's it's it's quarter to twelve,

291
00:18:23.480 --> 00:18:27.559
and they're not haven't called me yet? Yeah? Oh eleven forty five?

292
00:18:27.960 --> 00:18:30.799
All right? What is trivia for
the fix that. We'll be right back

293
00:18:30.839 --> 00:18:34.400

iconic series still relates to our lives

311
00:19:44.359 --> 00:19:47.880
The original airdate of The Fix Up
was February fifth, nineteen ninety two.

312
00:19:47.960 --> 00:19:51.160
It was written by Larry Charles and
Elaine Pope and directed by Tom Sharonez.

313
00:19:51.200 --> 00:19:53.400
Guest star and Maggie Wheeler as Cynthia. The episode kicks off with some

314
00:19:53.480 --> 00:19:57.880
stand up describing or talking about a
conductor at a show. I've always thought

315
00:19:57.920 --> 00:20:00.920
this we went and saw Star was
and toy story. Recently, Nick and

316
00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:04.799
I were with them with the Life
Orchestra, and like they're obviously doing something,

317
00:20:04.839 --> 00:20:08.240
you know, but it's like,
I don't understand. I'm always fascinated

318
00:20:08.279 --> 00:20:14.279
by these wiggles of the wand how
is that telling them what to do?

319
00:20:14.319 --> 00:20:17.200
I don't I don't get it.
I must admit I'm kind of curious about

320
00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:18.720
it as well. This Will reminded
me of two things. Brought things two

321
00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:23.200
things to mind. First of all, weird, like a music competition when

322
00:20:23.240 --> 00:20:27.640
I was back in school, and
one of the moment that brought the house

323
00:20:27.680 --> 00:20:34.599
down was one particular group had this
kid come out as conductor, and that

324
00:20:34.720 --> 00:20:44.079
this kid's name was Will Morgan and
Will wash It's popular guy, good sportsman,

325
00:20:44.680 --> 00:20:48.160
very funny, probably the least cultured
person you'd ever meet. So for

326
00:20:48.319 --> 00:20:52.039
him to come out with you know, conductor's baton and sort of stand in

327
00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:56.960
front of them, you know,
these kids playing music and just going everyone

328
00:20:56.160 --> 00:21:00.920
was like yeah, And of course
everyone was in on the joke. I

329
00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:03.319
mean, Will was definitely on the
joke that that was very funny. Also,

330
00:21:03.440 --> 00:21:10.160
there's a movie coming out I think
early next year called Ta Ta stares

331
00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:15.279
Australian legend Kate Blanchett, and she's
playing like a symphony conductor, and I

332
00:21:15.319 --> 00:21:18.039
must have been I'm looking forward to
it primarily because apparently it's like, oh,

333
00:21:18.039 --> 00:21:19.519
she's at the top of the game. He's you know, like one

334
00:21:19.559 --> 00:21:22.559
of the best of the Lord.
I'm like, well, maybe there's movie

335
00:21:22.559 --> 00:21:25.599
they explain exactly what a conductor does, what makes that good one from a

336
00:21:25.640 --> 00:21:30.799
bad one? Hopefully. Yeah,
you're right. I imagine it's about keeping

337
00:21:30.799 --> 00:21:33.160
the flow of them, keeping everybody
in sync. But do you mean there's

338
00:21:33.200 --> 00:21:36.319
Jerry points out like, well,
you were reading from the same pay can't

339
00:21:36.319 --> 00:21:37.960
be that hard, Kennon. Do
they ever look up at the conductor or

340
00:21:38.160 --> 00:21:41.160
are they not looking at their notes? Like at that the sheet music that

341
00:21:41.279 --> 00:21:45.480
I've always just been fascinated by it. Yeah, I guess it's just sort

342
00:21:45.519 --> 00:21:48.799
of steering the orchestra in the direction
that they need to go and making sure

343
00:21:48.839 --> 00:21:52.480
that everyone, you know, someone
isn't playing too fast or you know,

344
00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:53.799
the overall timber of the music isn't
speeding up. It's like, no,

345
00:21:55.000 --> 00:21:59.440
slow down, like let's go down. I don't know. I don't conductor

346
00:21:59.440 --> 00:22:00.319
on the show as a guests to
explain it to us, what do you

347
00:22:00.359 --> 00:22:06.359
reckon? Quite possibly without like we'd
probably end up with like a trainer trainer,

348
00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:11.559
all right. So George thinks that
he just needs to accept that he's

349
00:22:11.559 --> 00:22:15.519
never going to meet anybody. Maybe
you won't, he says, hard enough

350
00:22:15.519 --> 00:22:21.200
to meet women you dislike much less
like and Joey's it's just he's not passionalized.

351
00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:22.759
But he's not really pay much attention. And my nostrils getting bigger now.

352
00:22:23.920 --> 00:22:26.759
And George wants to know what is
the big deal? Why can't just

353
00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:30.240
approach a woman say you know,
hello, I'm George and whatnot? And

354
00:22:30.480 --> 00:22:36.920
an attractive woman walks past. He
gets all flustered. Yeah that's me when

355
00:22:36.960 --> 00:22:41.000
I was younger. I like,
you like to pretend you confident with your

356
00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:41.680
mates, and then a hot girl
walks over and you're like, oh,

357
00:22:42.200 --> 00:22:48.119
I don't know what to do anymore. I remember one thing in particular,

358
00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:52.240
and I don't know how I remember
this because I was clearly drunk. Actually

359
00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:56.400
at a bar in Hong Kong.
This is back in but probably around the

360
00:22:56.400 --> 00:23:00.000
time this episode came out, went
out and ended up in Hong Kong.

361
00:23:00.680 --> 00:23:03.799
That's correct. I was living in
Hong Kong for a little while and out

362
00:23:03.799 --> 00:23:07.640
of this out of this bar in
the nightclub district, and i'd I clearly

363
00:23:07.640 --> 00:23:10.480
had a bit to drink, and
I saw this very attractive woman across the

364
00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:12.960
across the bar, and I was
just drunk enough thing I should. I'm

365
00:23:14.000 --> 00:23:15.400
just gonna go over and say hard
to this woman, you know, and

366
00:23:15.640 --> 00:23:18.200
see what happens from there. And
I think I made it to with it,

367
00:23:18.359 --> 00:23:21.519
like a few feet of it,
and I saw that she was just

368
00:23:21.680 --> 00:23:25.200
so far out of my own that
it would have just been a fool's errand

369
00:23:25.319 --> 00:23:27.039
and I think I just stopped here
and said you know what, no,

370
00:23:29.960 --> 00:23:34.160
and then just walked away. But
I think actually said that it was like

371
00:23:34.559 --> 00:23:40.920
you know what now, but clearly
in a way it was like okay,

372
00:23:41.079 --> 00:23:44.359
and she knew it too, Like
I can't not in this arena. I

373
00:23:44.400 --> 00:23:47.440
would love to see that in person, this this hot chick and a guy

374
00:23:47.440 --> 00:23:51.039
approaching her and just stops like two
feet short and just goes noah back sway

375
00:23:51.119 --> 00:23:53.079
like that would be hilarious to see, I think, but you also give

376
00:23:53.160 --> 00:23:57.119
him props like at least he at
least he's aware enough to know don't embarrass

377
00:23:57.200 --> 00:24:02.599
himself. But sometimes just think I
was pretty emptily sometimes it's gonna go for

378
00:24:02.680 --> 00:24:03.160
it. You never know, you
could have said something to us. She

379
00:24:03.240 --> 00:24:07.720
might have been could be your wife, now that that is true. And

380
00:24:07.759 --> 00:24:11.119
I think I was like pretty emptibly
just like, you know what, this

381
00:24:11.160 --> 00:24:14.559
isn't gonna win well for either.
The fear of failures what holds us back,

382
00:24:14.640 --> 00:24:18.599
isn't it? There is that absolutely
yep. I just I do have

383
00:24:18.640 --> 00:24:25.039
a very fun memory that just like
no, no, just no men out

384
00:24:25.079 --> 00:24:29.480
there, you know. I mean
the problem is the good ones. No,

385
00:24:29.599 --> 00:24:32.640
they're good, they know they're in
such a man they're just not interesting

386
00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:38.559
in confining themselves to one person.
I hate the good ones. There's a

387
00:24:38.599 --> 00:24:45.319
good question. I think he thinks
she is. The mediocre ones are available,

388
00:24:45.680 --> 00:24:48.119
but they're so insecure about not being
one of the good ones that they're

389
00:24:48.119 --> 00:24:49.759
always going one, I'm not good
there for you? What are you doing

390
00:24:49.839 --> 00:24:55.599
with that? And eventually I just
go, you're right. I just thought

391
00:24:55.599 --> 00:24:57.680
Maggie Wheel was so funny throughout this
whole episode, just everything. She just

392
00:24:57.680 --> 00:25:00.759
she did it so well. It
was it was odd though, hearing her

393
00:25:00.839 --> 00:25:06.640
just talk and not yeah yeah,
but I thought she was really good.

394
00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:11.359
She um. She asked Elaine.
Is Jerry a good one? He thinks

395
00:25:11.359 --> 00:25:15.480
he is? I think I think
he thinks yea, which is perfect exactly

396
00:25:15.519 --> 00:25:18.960
as sums up Jerry he thinks he
is. She says she needs she needs

397
00:25:18.960 --> 00:25:22.160
someone who's desperate, and then we
cut to George with all the spaghetti all

398
00:25:22.160 --> 00:25:25.519
over his face. And I think
this episode is the first time we've sort

399
00:25:25.519 --> 00:25:29.440
of got the the implication of George
is a messy eater because it comes up

400
00:25:29.440 --> 00:25:32.079
and learn the episodes with the other
Sunday down his shirt and things like that.

401
00:25:32.480 --> 00:25:34.160
But um, but yeah, he's
um kind of a slob. I

402
00:25:34.200 --> 00:25:38.240
am in the camp of everyone at
the table when George is eating being disgusted

403
00:25:38.920 --> 00:25:42.799
when it comes to eating your food, have some form of like restraint,

404
00:25:44.119 --> 00:25:48.200
don't be an animal like oh yeah, And I hate me personally. I

405
00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:52.160
hate loud chewers, like I hate
when I can hear something. I hate

406
00:25:52.200 --> 00:25:53.200
what I can hear, the food
in your mouth being munched up, like

407
00:25:53.480 --> 00:25:57.119
close your mouth. God's sakes.
It just really it's one of my pet

408
00:25:57.160 --> 00:26:00.960
peeves and it sounds stupid, but
it's me. No, no, look,

409
00:26:02.079 --> 00:26:04.519
I'm I'm all too aware of it. I mean to the point where

410
00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:10.839
you know I'll be asking something,
Can I get an extra knapp and or

411
00:26:10.839 --> 00:26:14.480
do? Then that'd be great,
thank you, And he's take a bite,

412
00:26:15.920 --> 00:26:22.079
wipe the mouth, another bite,
white the beard. Yes, It's

413
00:26:22.119 --> 00:26:25.319
funny how some meals when it comes
to chips, right, some meals you'll

414
00:26:25.319 --> 00:26:26.720
eat chips with a fork, and
some meals you're eating with your hand,

415
00:26:26.799 --> 00:26:29.880
Like burger and chips. It's fine
to pick up the chips with your hand,

416
00:26:30.039 --> 00:26:32.920
but if you're having a steak you're
gonna have you're gonna use the knife

417
00:26:32.960 --> 00:26:34.000
and fork, right, I guess
if everything on the on the on the

418
00:26:34.079 --> 00:26:37.039
plate is um his hand for his
finger fit, it's fine. But I

419
00:26:37.039 --> 00:26:40.480
remember when I on a date with
a girl once at the Sporting Globes long

420
00:26:40.480 --> 00:26:41.680
before I met Nicola, and we
both got burger and chips. It was

421
00:26:41.680 --> 00:26:45.480
like Burger Knight actually hit the burger
with a knife and fork, and I

422
00:26:45.559 --> 00:26:48.319
was like do I do that?
Now? What if I do? And

423
00:26:48.359 --> 00:26:49.920
I was like, fuck it,
I'm not it's just awkward. So I

424
00:26:51.000 --> 00:26:52.720
use my hands, my head,
and I could tell she's like looking at

425
00:26:52.720 --> 00:26:55.759
me, funny. He's like,
look at this animal using his hands,

426
00:26:55.759 --> 00:26:57.799
and I was like using a knife
and fork for a fucking burger, Like

427
00:26:57.839 --> 00:27:00.880
what is going on? It was
the most It was the most awkward dinner

428
00:27:00.880 --> 00:27:03.039
because I can tell the entire time
I'm trying to have this conversation, but

429
00:27:03.039 --> 00:27:06.880
the entire time I can tell she's
judging me for using my hands to eating

430
00:27:06.880 --> 00:27:08.839
a burger. I'll never forget that. It was so odd. Well,

431
00:27:08.880 --> 00:27:14.279
there you go. There's there's a
Seinfeld episode in itself, or at least

432
00:27:14.279 --> 00:27:18.000
a part of the Seinfeld episode in
itself gotten to the point I'm flirting with

433
00:27:18.000 --> 00:27:23.720
operators on the phone. I much
made a deep wood one. So there's

434
00:27:23.759 --> 00:27:30.799
still a hole. I don't why
hole Hope telling me my dream is to

435
00:27:30.880 --> 00:27:33.400
become hopeless. Well, you're hopeless. You don't care. And when you

436
00:27:33.519 --> 00:27:37.839
don't care, that indifference it makes
you attractive man. So hopelessness is the

437
00:27:37.960 --> 00:27:45.559
key. Oh, that's that's just
like Larry David to a t. Janice

438
00:27:45.559 --> 00:27:47.599
says, you know she's got married
by the time she's fourdish, She's gonna

439
00:27:47.599 --> 00:27:51.000
have to kill him mother, and
she just feels so sorry for her or

440
00:27:51.039 --> 00:27:53.640
listen a bitter I could be young
and bitter. And she asked the lane

441
00:27:53.640 --> 00:27:56.920
to them to order a piece of
cake and she's going to go throw up.

442
00:27:56.680 --> 00:28:00.799
They slide into believe me a joke
in here, and I was like,

443
00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:03.799
as somebody's suffered through that, I
was like, I laughed at it,

444
00:28:03.839 --> 00:28:06.960
but I'm just like, wow,
that's just like you didn't focus on

445
00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:08.720
it. But I was like,
shit, that's a fucking Believia joke.

446
00:28:10.119 --> 00:28:15.920
Holy crap. Yeah, I mean, some feld's going for it. The

447
00:28:15.039 --> 00:28:18.680
last episode was the suicide. The
last episode of the week after was the

448
00:28:18.680 --> 00:28:23.240
suicide, you know, and then
the sneak in the eating disorder gag into

449
00:28:23.319 --> 00:28:29.799
this one time wow because later later
I was like, whoa, okay,

450
00:28:29.880 --> 00:28:33.039
cool. I thought I appreciate it. But when out at the apartment and

451
00:28:33.200 --> 00:28:36.359
Jerry's hands are filthy from the newspaper, I should give you a wipeout the

452
00:28:36.400 --> 00:28:37.759
river joint, I thought the same
thing when you're eating your newspaper and you're

453
00:28:37.759 --> 00:28:41.079
like, what may have my hands
all black? Just happened when I was

454
00:28:41.119 --> 00:28:42.480
working back at the day, we
were packing boxes of pop culture. You

455
00:28:42.519 --> 00:28:45.559
and I. You have to shove
the newspaper to the box. You get

456
00:28:45.559 --> 00:28:47.839
the end of the day and you
hands are all black and say oh god,

457
00:28:47.920 --> 00:28:52.759
oh oh yeah. Now they are
asked. Jerry asked Elaine what they

458
00:28:52.880 --> 00:28:55.759
cheated about, and when she when
she said, you know, the Federal

459
00:28:55.799 --> 00:28:59.920
Reserve, the rainforest, I thought
that was her being sarcastic. I've got

460
00:29:00.240 --> 00:29:03.960
I had my notes. They're so
similar like that is like a smarmy response

461
00:29:03.039 --> 00:29:06.480
that Joey would give her. But
then she's like, oh no, she

462
00:29:06.640 --> 00:29:08.039
thinks it would be good to um, you know, shut the rainforest down

463
00:29:08.079 --> 00:29:11.720
in that way. We have to
have that conversation anymore. They don't get

464
00:29:11.759 --> 00:29:18.279
the idea for the fix up.
Actually, George was some rare form.

465
00:29:18.000 --> 00:29:23.119
He just can't find anybody. I
know. Cynthia too, she's really given

466
00:29:23.200 --> 00:29:37.680
up George too. Yeah right,
I've never fixed anybody yet. Oh me

467
00:29:37.920 --> 00:29:45.559
neither. And I am not about
to start with George. Well why wouldn't

468
00:29:45.559 --> 00:29:49.400
you start with George? Do you
think she's too good for George? I

469
00:29:49.480 --> 00:29:52.160
didn't say too good. Did I
say too good? Oh? You implied

470
00:29:52.240 --> 00:29:56.319
it. I didn't say it.
Because if you think she's too good for

471
00:29:56.400 --> 00:30:03.079
George. You are dead wrong,
dead wrong. Who is he? He's

472
00:30:03.160 --> 00:30:15.319
George's but you don't think she's beautiful? What's with the eyebrows? You know

473
00:30:15.359 --> 00:30:18.960
what your problem is, your standards
are too high. Not with you,

474
00:30:25.640 --> 00:30:32.920
that's because my standards are too low. I like that Jerry was backing up

475
00:30:32.920 --> 00:30:36.759
George because and Elane's backing up Cynthia. It's like they've got their friends,

476
00:30:36.880 --> 00:30:38.960
their friends, but they've also got
their own friends. And Jerry all his

477
00:30:40.079 --> 00:30:42.000
faults aside. He will support George
to the end of the earth, like

478
00:30:42.079 --> 00:30:48.680
he's backing it up. It's his
best mate. But it's complicated, I

479
00:30:48.799 --> 00:30:52.519
think because I think partly he's like, no, no, George is all

480
00:30:52.599 --> 00:30:56.839
right. But I think it's also
Jerry's big upping himself a little bit because

481
00:30:56.880 --> 00:31:03.400
he's like, he recommend he's with
George. Yeah, and any impression of

482
00:31:03.519 --> 00:31:07.880
George is reflected on Jerry's what It's
like, why are you friends with this

483
00:31:07.000 --> 00:31:14.240
guy? Yeah? It's sometimes a
bit of an old one to to work

484
00:31:14.319 --> 00:31:18.279
out. So yeah, because I'm
I wrote, does Jerry really think George

485
00:31:18.400 --> 00:31:23.480
is that good? And I don't
know. It's it's an interesting one.

486
00:31:23.720 --> 00:31:26.319
Jerry then points out her eyebrows,
and I was like, what's wrong with

487
00:31:26.400 --> 00:31:30.759
her eyebrows? I rewound at that
point and I was like, eyebrows look

488
00:31:30.880 --> 00:31:33.920
perfectly normal to me. I don't
understand what's wrong with the eyebrows. But

489
00:31:33.079 --> 00:31:37.440
you know your standards too high?
Well, I went out with you because

490
00:31:37.480 --> 00:31:40.480
you because my standards are too low. That's where we get the low like

491
00:31:40.519 --> 00:31:44.119
the married with children kind of response
from the crowd there. M Alaina mentions

492
00:31:44.200 --> 00:31:45.480
that you know her eyebrows, you
know, some women pluck them all out

493
00:31:45.519 --> 00:31:48.119
of their heads and draw them on
just to have. Some women would kill

494
00:31:48.160 --> 00:31:51.559
to have eyebrows like that, which
comes in later on, which I thought

495
00:31:51.599 --> 00:31:55.319
was pretty cool George's and he says
that George is fast and he's strong,

496
00:31:55.640 --> 00:32:00.519
and I tell you he can beat
a hook, like never to beat it,

497
00:32:00.559 --> 00:32:02.519
like when you went fishing with mates. Some mates can't beat a hook,

498
00:32:02.599 --> 00:32:05.440
and you feel like it's kind of
like when you say to a guy,

499
00:32:05.519 --> 00:32:07.440
put a shelf up and they can't
put a shove up. You feel

500
00:32:07.440 --> 00:32:10.279
like less of a man. Oh
yeah, it's like my day would take

501
00:32:10.319 --> 00:32:13.480
your fish and he's like, bait
the hook, and I'm like my head,

502
00:32:13.519 --> 00:32:15.480
I'm like I don't really know how
to do this. Let's just fucking

503
00:32:15.519 --> 00:32:16.759
wing it. Let's just shove,
just get this hook and to shove stuff

504
00:32:16.759 --> 00:32:22.359
on. Dad's like you fucking I'm
like, I'm so sorry. Well,

505
00:32:22.440 --> 00:32:27.519
you never taught me. You never
taught me. It's terrible. I mean

506
00:32:28.119 --> 00:32:30.440
when you're at that age, or
at any age, because it can still

507
00:32:30.480 --> 00:32:32.680
happen, you know, when you
think you're old enough to know about it's

508
00:32:32.720 --> 00:32:36.480
like, man, I don't know
how to do this, Can you show

509
00:32:36.559 --> 00:32:38.400
me? I mean, it's the
simplest thing in the world to say.

510
00:32:38.799 --> 00:32:43.279
We've had this discussion before where we
discussed how we can't drive manual cards.

511
00:32:44.599 --> 00:32:46.359
People these days like it's like so
much of a big deal. But I

512
00:32:46.400 --> 00:32:47.880
went for a job, as I
was saying, and they're like, can

513
00:32:47.880 --> 00:32:50.680
you drive manual? Yeah? And
I was like, oh, I can

514
00:32:50.759 --> 00:32:52.319
learn. Like you can't drive manual. I'm like, I'm so sorry.

515
00:32:54.400 --> 00:32:58.240
As we said, if it's easy
to drive, order just fucking make what

516
00:32:58.480 --> 00:33:00.200
what's the need for manual? I
don't there, but it's one of those

517
00:33:00.240 --> 00:33:02.960
things where driving a manual car.
If you can't drive manual. I remember

518
00:33:04.039 --> 00:33:07.319
Nicolas, Dad was like had a
manual car and then he found out that

519
00:33:07.359 --> 00:33:08.880
I couldn't drive these all about vehicles, and he found out I couldn't drive

520
00:33:08.920 --> 00:33:12.119
a manual. I could just tell
you look to me like less of a

521
00:33:12.200 --> 00:33:15.519
man. I don't care, man, I don't care, buddy. But

522
00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:17.440
Jerry, he thinks it's a good
idea. You know, are we going

523
00:33:17.519 --> 00:33:22.480
to share information like every secret?
What if it worked out? Yeah?

524
00:33:22.559 --> 00:33:25.519
Right, So Jerry's revealing there that
he doesn't think this is gonna work.

525
00:33:25.519 --> 00:33:29.640
You just think it's gonna be fun. The power are they're going to have

526
00:33:29.720 --> 00:33:31.799
over each other, all the goss
they could tell each other. So George,

527
00:33:31.839 --> 00:33:34.799
you know, cuts of George,
it's out of the question. It's

528
00:33:34.839 --> 00:33:37.119
not going to happen. It's one
step away from a personal ladd and prostitutes.

529
00:33:39.079 --> 00:33:43.319
And then comes back out what does
she look like? And this whole

530
00:33:43.359 --> 00:33:46.400
conversation about describing how each other looked
like. You can just tell anyone who's

531
00:33:46.440 --> 00:33:50.400
gone through a fix up, this
is exactly what would happen. Oh yeah,

532
00:33:50.400 --> 00:33:53.319
I mean you have to become a
salesman or yeah, like their agent

533
00:33:53.559 --> 00:33:57.519
or something. No, No,
they're really how do I sell it to

534
00:33:57.599 --> 00:34:00.359
them? How do I how do
I tell them the truth? Not the

535
00:34:00.519 --> 00:34:02.359
real truth, but the truth and
enough to get them. Well, I'm

536
00:34:02.359 --> 00:34:08.440
not necessarily lying, but I'm not
telling them everything just yet, really accentuating

537
00:34:08.480 --> 00:34:13.079
the positive, you know, and
down and down playing the negative as you

538
00:34:13.159 --> 00:34:17.039
know, as honestly as you can, but also as you know, being

539
00:34:17.079 --> 00:34:20.719
as good as salesman as you possibly
can as well. I watch this with

540
00:34:20.880 --> 00:34:23.000
Nicola and Nicola when George asked what
her her body is like, Nicholas like,

541
00:34:23.360 --> 00:34:25.360
I don't reckon they do this anymore
TV. And I'm like, you're

542
00:34:25.400 --> 00:34:29.760
probably right if you know what the
thing is, that's exactly what a guy

543
00:34:29.800 --> 00:34:32.320
would ask. That's any guy that
says he wouldn't ask as full of shit

544
00:34:32.440 --> 00:34:37.039
like you would one hundred percent ask
that. I've never been part of a

545
00:34:37.079 --> 00:34:38.840
fix up. I've never been set
up on a date, but you like,

546
00:34:39.000 --> 00:34:42.679
this is the kind of question that
people would ask, what's it?

547
00:34:42.760 --> 00:34:45.239
And Cynthia asked the same thing,
was he look like, what's it?

548
00:34:45.360 --> 00:34:46.800
Is? He fat? Is he? This? It's just we're humans.

549
00:34:47.199 --> 00:34:50.559
Well, you know, it's just
part of it. It's part of who

550
00:34:50.599 --> 00:34:52.039
we are. We want to know
if if I'm going on a date with

551
00:34:52.079 --> 00:34:53.599
somebody, I want to know what
they look like, do they have a

552
00:34:53.679 --> 00:34:55.840
good body? If they don't have
a good body, that doesn't mean I'm

553
00:34:55.880 --> 00:34:58.639
not going to go in the date. I'd just like to know what I'm

554
00:34:58.639 --> 00:35:01.119
getting myself involved with. No,
it's it's nice to know a little bit

555
00:35:01.159 --> 00:35:06.639
before you actually meet someone. You
know. It's funny very surely, surely

556
00:35:06.679 --> 00:35:08.679
I know this is the time to
be four smartphones. Surely they've got photos

557
00:35:08.760 --> 00:35:15.599
of each other. Surely Jerry has
a photo of George. Somewhere they can

558
00:35:15.639 --> 00:35:17.639
get to a land that she can
go show Cynthia. But anyway, it

559
00:35:17.679 --> 00:35:22.400
doesn't matter. But yeah, what's
it? Body like? That's really very

560
00:35:22.519 --> 00:35:25.960
nice and good? And I can't
do the woman's smarter than me? How

561
00:35:27.000 --> 00:35:32.119
because she'd be smarter than you.
But it's incredible. Yet, how are

562
00:35:32.119 --> 00:35:36.760
these people who initially were like,
oh, I think I'm just going to

563
00:35:36.800 --> 00:35:39.639
be hopeless, or you know,
are generally sort of pessimistic people are being

564
00:35:39.960 --> 00:35:45.880
very very picky exactly the potential they've
gone from. I want someone who's hopeless

565
00:35:45.920 --> 00:35:47.639
and desperate too. Well, you
know, he can't be fat, and

566
00:35:47.760 --> 00:35:50.960
he can't be this, and he's
balding. What do him? It's like

567
00:35:51.239 --> 00:35:55.000
you said you wanted this, Yeah, bald Or balding, Yeah, yeah,

568
00:35:55.079 --> 00:35:58.559
bald Or boarding. That was great. He's had a lot of character

569
00:35:58.639 --> 00:36:00.119
in his face. He's short,
he's hockey you mean, he's fat,

570
00:36:00.480 --> 00:36:05.719
He's powerful, And I like,
how like what Jerry used to sell George

571
00:36:05.719 --> 00:36:07.719
to Elaine, she's now using to
sell to Cynthia and vice verson with you

572
00:36:07.800 --> 00:36:12.760
know, they kill for eyebrows like
that. So like the things that Elaine

573
00:36:12.880 --> 00:36:15.039
used to sell Cynthia to Jerry,
he's now using to sell to George.

574
00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:21.599
And then we get the assment that
they're flowing? Is the heaf flowing hair?

575
00:36:21.679 --> 00:36:25.280
I like thick cascading hair. Does
the hand get stuck in the hair?

576
00:36:25.400 --> 00:36:30.760
What is her chickslow? Is it
a pinkish hue? And Jerry's just

577
00:36:30.840 --> 00:36:35.000
response to all this is just like
perfect. And then the women were killed

578
00:36:35.039 --> 00:36:37.880
to have our eyebrows. And I
hope she's not too sweet because that can

579
00:36:37.920 --> 00:36:43.280
make you throw up. She likes
to throw up like Cynthia then asked if

580
00:36:43.280 --> 00:36:46.119
he's ever been married. I honestly
think sorry, just just just a quick

581
00:36:46.159 --> 00:36:49.719
thing. I mean, the believing
thing doesn't really come into it all that

582
00:36:49.840 --> 00:36:52.239
much other than you know, there's
the there's a line at the start,

583
00:36:52.239 --> 00:36:54.960
which is order mean, Pisa going
to throw up. Then it's never really

584
00:36:55.039 --> 00:36:58.480
sort of mentioned again. I think
it's really just a set up for that

585
00:36:58.599 --> 00:37:01.239
line. That's while I was just
like, they just throw this polemia gag

586
00:37:01.320 --> 00:37:04.719
in there, which has no bearing
on the story. It's just there.

587
00:37:06.079 --> 00:37:07.519
But you know why not. You
know, people go through it. It

588
00:37:07.559 --> 00:37:10.880
happens. We can look back and
you gotta at least acknowledge it, you

589
00:37:10.920 --> 00:37:14.280
know what I mean, that's not
I don't think they don't treat it like

590
00:37:14.320 --> 00:37:16.480
it's a butt of a joke.
No, it's just that's what that's what

591
00:37:16.599 --> 00:37:20.599
she's doing. But yeah, Cynthia
asked if she's married, and Aline says

592
00:37:20.599 --> 00:37:22.920
he wants better weaken with a woman, and Cynthia is just, I'm too

593
00:37:22.960 --> 00:37:25.760
sure about this guy. So George
and Cynthia have had an incredible phone conversation.

594
00:37:27.079 --> 00:37:30.119
Threw away his notes halfway through.
I love that George always writes notes

595
00:37:30.159 --> 00:37:34.000
for his phone conversations. Oh yeah, you know, he thinks she could

596
00:37:34.039 --> 00:37:37.360
do voice over commercials. Her voice
is watched mister Davis and there's mellifluous.

597
00:37:37.599 --> 00:37:42.480
Yeah, and then he's like,
this is our dates should go two phones

598
00:37:42.519 --> 00:37:46.159
on a table done. I'm perfect
on a phone conversation. And that's that's

599
00:37:46.159 --> 00:37:49.519
the thing. When I used to
be talking to girls over the phone.

600
00:37:50.599 --> 00:37:52.559
He's so much more confident, aren't
you when you're on the phone. Oh

601
00:37:52.679 --> 00:37:58.880
yeah, you're like a superman.
She doesn't even know what I'm naked,

602
00:37:58.960 --> 00:38:00.199
right, No, no, no
at all. But yeah, it's just

603
00:38:01.000 --> 00:38:04.800
I thought it was really really cool. Lane walks in that she's really really

604
00:38:04.840 --> 00:38:07.000
happy for him. It's gone,
it's gone so great. And what does

605
00:38:07.039 --> 00:38:09.639
she say about the conversation. She
didn't really mention it. She didn't mention

606
00:38:09.679 --> 00:38:13.719
it. And then George just give
us up. Shout away is so perfect.

607
00:38:14.000 --> 00:38:17.079
Then we get Cramer entering with the
with the hollering from the yes and

608
00:38:17.400 --> 00:38:20.800
he just talks over the top of
them. He enters the cheers that he

609
00:38:20.880 --> 00:38:23.519
says Bob Sacramento, he's got the
gig at the condom factory and Edison and

610
00:38:23.559 --> 00:38:27.159
he gave him a gross what are
you gonna do with him? All?

611
00:38:27.599 --> 00:38:32.679
Well, love, He tells them
later to take half a back whatever,

612
00:38:34.000 --> 00:38:40.320
hooker, George, I'll take one. It's possible. Plus, you know,

613
00:38:42.320 --> 00:38:44.440
in my time using holloms, I
don't think I've ever used like a

614
00:38:44.519 --> 00:38:49.440
colored one. It's gone for the
basic transparency. Yeah, your your sex

615
00:38:49.519 --> 00:38:55.760
life was as vanilla as could possibly
be. Correct. I think I had

616
00:38:55.840 --> 00:39:00.880
well, I think that I brought
the flavor. Yeah, yeah, I

617
00:39:00.920 --> 00:39:04.639
don't need to gussie it up with
like checking out baby. It's the Crimson

618
00:39:04.760 --> 00:39:10.079
carndom, the vanilla frosting. But
then we get some more stand up about

619
00:39:10.119 --> 00:39:13.440
by the problem with buying a condom, which we discussed earlier, which I

620
00:39:13.480 --> 00:39:15.840
just thought Joey is really good at
times with his physical comedy. Just that

621
00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:19.880
the nod like it's he absolutely.
I thought this is one of his best

622
00:39:19.880 --> 00:39:22.519
stand ups he's shown on the show
so far. We're don't get Jerry in

623
00:39:22.559 --> 00:39:24.199
a land on the phone. It's
almost like they've got their own little relationship

624
00:39:24.199 --> 00:39:27.519
happening on the side. It's like
it's become a game to them. We

625
00:39:27.519 --> 00:39:29.760
spoke to them yet, Yeah,
she didn't call me yet either. It's

626
00:39:29.760 --> 00:39:31.679
looking forty five. They both then
call up, so I got off the

627
00:39:31.719 --> 00:39:36.320
phones and full disclosure. You know, I'll vault it. I'll vault it.

628
00:39:36.519 --> 00:39:38.440
And we've all had moments who have
said that to somebody and it's like

629
00:39:38.639 --> 00:39:42.119
they know and we know it's not
going to be vaulted. It's going to

630
00:39:42.199 --> 00:39:45.039
come out. But I remember I
said to like my mate. My mate

631
00:39:45.079 --> 00:39:47.719
said to me something about they're having
a Baby's like, don't don't tell Nikola.

632
00:39:47.719 --> 00:39:50.639
I'm all right. He knew I
was going home to the town.

633
00:39:50.760 --> 00:39:54.719
Nikola, you have to tell somebody. Yeah, I think when you've got

634
00:39:54.800 --> 00:39:57.880
a situational that, yeah, you've
got to take into account. Like,

635
00:39:58.119 --> 00:40:00.519
okay, well, yeah, I'm
gonna tell someone. But how many people

636
00:40:00.519 --> 00:40:02.840
are they gonna tell? Yeah?
How big is the circle gonna be?

637
00:40:04.119 --> 00:40:06.679
How wide is it gonna rache?
So you say you can just tell one

638
00:40:06.719 --> 00:40:08.159
person, that's fine. All right, Look I'm gonna tell you. But

639
00:40:08.280 --> 00:40:10.800
I made a path with Cynthia.
We swore we were not going to tell

640
00:40:10.840 --> 00:40:14.480
you in Elane, you can tell
me, I'll vault it. It's in

641
00:40:14.559 --> 00:40:21.719
the vault. I'm locking the vault. What we had sex? Did you

642
00:40:21.800 --> 00:40:23.840
get sex? How did that happen? I don't know. I closed my

643
00:40:23.920 --> 00:40:28.760
eyes and made a move your apartment. Yeah she didn't stay, No,

644
00:40:28.920 --> 00:40:31.280
she left. But listen, you
can't mention any of this to Elane.

645
00:40:31.719 --> 00:40:37.119
Cynthia will kill me. We made
a deal. Oh my god, he

646
00:40:37.280 --> 00:40:39.920
was uncomfortable because it was our first
time, so he felt he would perform

647
00:40:40.039 --> 00:40:44.960
better if we did it in the
kitchen. He says, the kitchen is

648
00:40:44.960 --> 00:40:47.920
always the most sociable room in the
house. And he was serious, So

649
00:40:49.719 --> 00:40:52.559
how was it? How good could
it be? My head was on a

650
00:40:52.639 --> 00:40:57.239
hot plate. But George is annoyed
dad because he's left three messages and he

651
00:40:57.280 --> 00:41:00.639
feels used, cheap and violent because
she hasn't called back. And Jerry's just

652
00:41:00.679 --> 00:41:02.480
not impressed at all, because it's
just like, hey, O, I

653
00:41:02.639 --> 00:41:07.400
vouched for you. Now she's making
me look bad and she's not going to

654
00:41:07.480 --> 00:41:10.239
get away with this. And George
like, you know what, I made

655
00:41:10.320 --> 00:41:13.679
small talk with the waitress. You
know, I'm a man of the people.

656
00:41:14.000 --> 00:41:16.360
They'll talk to the commoners and looked
at the commoners, and then Joey's

657
00:41:16.360 --> 00:41:17.760
like, I'm going to call it, and George like, no, no,

658
00:41:17.880 --> 00:41:20.519
don't, don't do it. Don't
do it. I thought it was

659
00:41:20.800 --> 00:41:22.320
Mike Rich has done a great job
here. I've just being the guy between.

660
00:41:22.480 --> 00:41:27.360
Like he was being such a such
a good friend, such a ment

661
00:41:27.440 --> 00:41:29.679
this tour. It's like the plenty
of women out there for all of us.

662
00:41:30.760 --> 00:41:37.039
Really, you're killing George, I'll
stop it. I'll just I don't

663
00:41:37.079 --> 00:41:46.880
care. I can't do that,
Sun Like, I don't want to hear

664
00:41:46.920 --> 00:41:53.360
another word out of either one of
you and the next one of you that

665
00:41:53.440 --> 00:41:55.400
opens up your mouth. That's something
you're gonna have to deal with me,

666
00:41:59.599 --> 00:42:01.159
you know. I know if this
is about it's about a woman, isn't

667
00:42:01.199 --> 00:42:05.840
it. Yeah, but yeah,
this is exactly what they want to do

668
00:42:05.920 --> 00:42:08.599
to you. They play one against
the other. You can't let them manipulate

669
00:42:08.679 --> 00:42:14.639
you like that. But I want
you guys to shake that. Come on,

670
00:42:14.760 --> 00:42:15.559
there are plenty of women out there
for all of us. Let's go.

671
00:42:17.960 --> 00:42:22.880
Yes, you see, isn't that
better than fighting animosity? I mean,

672
00:42:22.920 --> 00:42:28.480
you want to fight with somebody,
you fight with me. Oh,

673
00:42:28.559 --> 00:42:30.760
by the way, George, you
know those condoms I gave you, they're

674
00:42:30.760 --> 00:42:37.519
defective. Don't use them home And
then the roles reverse, so like then

675
00:42:37.599 --> 00:42:39.800
Jerry becomes the man in between because
he says to George, why don't think

676
00:42:39.800 --> 00:42:44.239
you're gonna have to use them?
George gets I right. Jerry becomes a

677
00:42:44.280 --> 00:42:46.599
man in the middle, and Cynthia
says to Elaine that she's missed her period.

678
00:42:46.679 --> 00:42:52.159
Elaine realizes, oh shit, I
know why Jerry. Then we get

679
00:42:52.320 --> 00:42:57.000
Jerry trying to twistle the little of
a soda but he can't do it.

680
00:42:57.079 --> 00:43:00.920
Those a little life of me.
But I felt like a a big focus

681
00:43:00.960 --> 00:43:02.159
on something so small. But I
guess that's what sign Found's all about.

682
00:43:02.679 --> 00:43:07.400
Oh yeah, yeah, that's another
thing too, about what when Nicholas says

683
00:43:07.639 --> 00:43:09.559
I can't unscrew this lid? Whatce
she hands out to me. The pressure

684
00:43:09.880 --> 00:43:13.719
immediately goes onto me. I'm like, if I can't open this jar,

685
00:43:13.880 --> 00:43:19.159
now, might was get divorced?
When they say can you open it for

686
00:43:19.280 --> 00:43:21.559
me? It's like, oh shit, if I can't open it, now,

687
00:43:22.280 --> 00:43:25.239
what do I do? And sometimes
yeah, you've just got one that's

688
00:43:25.280 --> 00:43:30.000
just stuck or just on a little
bit too far and no one's getting it

689
00:43:30.079 --> 00:43:32.599
off without, you know, sort
of having to google tight lid on salsa,

690
00:43:34.119 --> 00:43:37.159
you know, and he put it
under a hot tap or something that'll

691
00:43:37.199 --> 00:43:38.559
experience a little bit, but you
know, if you can't just grab it

692
00:43:38.559 --> 00:43:43.599
and go, yeah, you're feeling
like less of a man. Elena arrives

693
00:43:44.159 --> 00:43:50.119
and what's the problem with your flaky
friend? I know her type and pushes

694
00:43:50.159 --> 00:43:52.079
in and there getting all angry at
each other. She call. He calls

695
00:43:52.079 --> 00:43:54.639
it bitter and twisted. Oh,
bitter might be a judgment, but I'll

696
00:43:54.679 --> 00:43:59.000
tell you she's twisted. And then
he's like, I'm calling you a lie

697
00:43:59.039 --> 00:44:01.119
of your one and then she points
in his finger you get that thinker out

698
00:44:01.159 --> 00:44:06.400
of my face and breaks them all
up again. Don't two of you see

699
00:44:06.440 --> 00:44:08.679
that you're in love with each other
and they're not? Like this is pretty

700
00:44:08.760 --> 00:44:10.800
much like if this was any other
sitcom, that would be the story,

701
00:44:10.840 --> 00:44:14.960
wouldn't it be? Will they won't
they be Ross and Rachel? You know,

702
00:44:15.199 --> 00:44:20.280
and they clearly are perfect for each
other. But the show wouldn't succeed

703
00:44:20.320 --> 00:44:22.800
if they were together. No,
absolutely not. So I mean, and

704
00:44:22.880 --> 00:44:25.920
I think you've got you know,
some fans of the show do any bit

705
00:44:25.920 --> 00:44:29.119
of shipping, like, oh,
Jerry Lane wouldn't be great if they were

706
00:44:29.119 --> 00:44:30.760
together, and they can enjoy that
fantasy. But yeah, I think the

707
00:44:30.800 --> 00:44:37.079
show was way too smart to put
them together. I were affect him.

708
00:44:37.800 --> 00:44:47.000
How did you know they weren't fuck
up? Mister period? Mister period?

709
00:44:52.400 --> 00:45:06.960
Oh my god, I can't believe
it. I'm a father. Now we're

710
00:45:07.000 --> 00:45:12.039
on the date here with Before George
and Jerry arrived, Cynthia is explaining how

711
00:45:12.159 --> 00:45:14.679
George he stepped up to the plate. I was like, what a dude.

712
00:45:14.920 --> 00:45:17.159
Oh yeah, he was like,
you got my full support. Like

713
00:45:17.280 --> 00:45:21.760
I'm just like, okay, it's
gonna work out for these guys. But

714
00:45:21.840 --> 00:45:22.480
here's the thing. I mean,
you're saying, you know, I'll support

715
00:45:22.519 --> 00:45:24.519
you whatever you choose. I was
like, if she wants to have the

716
00:45:24.559 --> 00:45:27.960
baby. If she does want to
have the Baby's like no, I mean,

717
00:45:28.480 --> 00:45:31.480
George has been very progressive, very
sensitive. Good on him before he

718
00:45:31.519 --> 00:45:35.719
knew that she wasn't pregnant. Of
course, so that's where the branding points

719
00:45:35.760 --> 00:45:39.400
come from. Jerry and George arrive
and Joey pretends to have a limp like

720
00:45:40.480 --> 00:45:45.000
that's just me. It's just it's
something stupid for no reason other than try

721
00:45:45.039 --> 00:45:47.480
and be funny. But they're the
best seat in the house. And she

722
00:45:47.480 --> 00:45:50.480
says, right next to the kitchen. I was like, hey, nice,

723
00:45:50.559 --> 00:45:53.559
threw back, Let's go back there
now. No, It's what I

724
00:45:53.679 --> 00:45:57.480
like about that line is that at
first she were saying how much she hated

725
00:45:57.519 --> 00:46:00.280
having sex in the kitchen. You
know, she felt comfortable, bla blah

726
00:46:00.280 --> 00:46:01.719
blah. It wasn't nice. She
left you went home. Now that George

727
00:46:01.760 --> 00:46:04.519
has made a good impression. It's
like, oh yeah, we can fucking

728
00:46:04.599 --> 00:46:07.079
kitch you whenever you want you now, buddy, Like it changes a whole

729
00:46:07.119 --> 00:46:08.400
out. We're going to having sex
in the kitchen because now George has sort

730
00:46:08.440 --> 00:46:14.199
of stepped up to the plate.
Hot planet, we said, and George

731
00:46:14.400 --> 00:46:17.159
then immediately eats like a pig.
It kind of came across a bit much

732
00:46:17.159 --> 00:46:22.400
because to me personally, I can't
see George the way he is and focusing

733
00:46:22.440 --> 00:46:25.719
on the little details being such a
pig. I can understand that the Sunday

734
00:46:25.840 --> 00:46:30.400
dripping onto his shirt and things like
that, but the whole eating what the

735
00:46:30.480 --> 00:46:31.800
Simpsons kind of do? I was
like, I felt a bit out of

736
00:46:31.920 --> 00:46:35.840
character. No, No, it
really should have just been like he,

737
00:46:36.000 --> 00:46:37.920
you know, took a big bite
to something and just had a big smear

738
00:46:38.000 --> 00:46:40.000
on the side of his face.
Yeah, which has happened to me on

739
00:46:40.039 --> 00:46:43.119
more than one occasion. And you
know, the lovely the ways I'll look

740
00:46:43.119 --> 00:46:45.760
across me and go, yeah,
do do the face thing on the finger

741
00:46:45.800 --> 00:46:50.119
on the face. Oh man,
I'm a slub. I don't deserve this

742
00:46:50.199 --> 00:46:55.079
woman. She's like, you're right, it's your leaves. Yeah. So

743
00:46:55.159 --> 00:46:59.480
it was that aside, I thought
this, Yeah, but I just thought

744
00:46:59.519 --> 00:47:02.440
Maggie Will was fantastic in this.
And let me get some stand up at

745
00:47:02.440 --> 00:47:06.480
the end about the power chip from
being having the fix up and you know,

746
00:47:06.519 --> 00:47:08.360
God's the first person that's set up
Adam and Eve and and we go

747
00:47:08.480 --> 00:47:13.599
from there. So um. Yeah, so another solid episode of Seinfeld.

748
00:47:13.679 --> 00:47:17.400
It's not by any means a classic
one, but it's one of those things

749
00:47:17.400 --> 00:47:21.000
where you're watching you just feel like
you're watching real people just having a normal

750
00:47:21.039 --> 00:47:23.440
conversation. That's that. But that's
what's funny about it. It's not necessarily

751
00:47:23.519 --> 00:47:27.519
a gag heavy. It's just what
people say in real life, and that's

752
00:47:27.519 --> 00:47:30.960
what makes it funny. Yeah,
and I think it deserved that that Emmy

753
00:47:30.159 --> 00:47:36.039
based on that. Yeah, it's
a very it's a very written episode,

754
00:47:36.280 --> 00:47:37.840
if you know what I mean.
It's like, Yeah, they put a

755
00:47:37.880 --> 00:47:43.960
lot of effort into the writing of
it. So yeah, it deserved its

756
00:47:44.000 --> 00:47:45.519
prize. And then yeah, look
it's not up there with the best of

757
00:47:45.559 --> 00:47:50.679
the best, absolutely, but it's
perfectly fun episode. I had a good

758
00:47:50.760 --> 00:47:53.920
half hour watching The Fix Up.
Yes, all right, guys, well

759
00:47:53.960 --> 00:47:57.440
that is our review of The Fix
Up. I hope you enjoyed it the

760
00:47:57.519 --> 00:48:00.639
next episode, so that there's a
two part episode me up with the Davis,

761
00:48:00.719 --> 00:48:02.880
The Boyfriend Part one and part two. Are we going to do an

762
00:48:02.920 --> 00:48:06.320
episode on part one and an episode
on part two? Are we going to

763
00:48:06.360 --> 00:48:08.360
do it as a double whammy because
it might throw off all It will throw

764
00:48:08.400 --> 00:48:13.320
everything off if we can join them
into one episode. So what do you

765
00:48:13.360 --> 00:48:15.440
want to do the Boyfriend Part one
and part two? I think that they

766
00:48:15.480 --> 00:48:17.079
believe they add at the same time, so they add back to back.

767
00:48:17.599 --> 00:48:20.880
So do you want to just do
the boy Just do the Boyfriend as an

768
00:48:20.880 --> 00:48:22.159
episode? The problem is it's going
to be a long one because it's gonna

769
00:48:22.159 --> 00:48:24.960
be an hour's worth of content to
review. So she would do part one

770
00:48:24.960 --> 00:48:28.840
and part two? Or should we
review it as one single thing? I

771
00:48:28.920 --> 00:48:30.639
think we should do it as one
single thing. Let's do it all right,

772
00:48:30.760 --> 00:48:34.719
So the next episode of Sifer will
be The Boyfriend Part one and Part

773
00:48:34.800 --> 00:48:37.480
two together, so look out for
that. Also, like do here on

774
00:48:37.559 --> 00:48:42.119
Talking Sin Found is each week we're
going to chuck out a potential episode idea

775
00:48:42.320 --> 00:48:46.000
and we need you guys to send
in your storylines for that episode for each

776
00:48:46.119 --> 00:48:49.840
character. So the episode this week
is going to be what mister Davis,

777
00:48:49.960 --> 00:48:52.400
I think we go with the finger
point yeah, or the point as the

778
00:48:52.480 --> 00:48:57.760
point yeah, because yeah, Elaine
makes a big show of putting a finger

779
00:48:57.880 --> 00:49:00.000
in Jerry's face, and he's not
he's not big on the point. He's

780
00:49:00.000 --> 00:49:05.400
not big on someone pointing a finger
in his face. We feel like it's

781
00:49:05.400 --> 00:49:09.880
something that could be spun off into
a whole episode. It's a it's an

782
00:49:09.920 --> 00:49:15.519
exciting incident that could become a rollicking
half hour of comedy. So Talking Seinfeld

783
00:49:15.599 --> 00:49:20.519
at gmail dot com sending your ideas
for the point. What would Cramer,

for them. So what will they
be for this week? Just one malefluis
