WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.720 --> 00:00:05.960 You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from KFI AM six forty. 2 00:00:06.280 --> 00:00:10.480 And if you look at the calendar, it may say spring, but if 3 00:00:10.519 --> 00:00:14.560 you look at the calendar through the prism of the box office, the summer 4 00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:20.280 season has officially begun. Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes was the first 5 00:00:20.559 --> 00:00:23.559 big movie. I don't know if it would be considered a blockbuster, but 6 00:00:23.640 --> 00:00:28.320 it was one of the big releases for twenty twenty four, a lot of 7 00:00:28.359 --> 00:00:35.039 promotion, high expectations. Legacy film, the fourth and the most recent series 8 00:00:35.439 --> 00:00:39.039 of Planet of the Apes movie, so there was a lot riding on it. 9 00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:43.159 How well did it do? Came in at number one, and I 10 00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:47.200 would love to get Mark Runners's thoughts about these numbers. It came into number 11 00:00:47.200 --> 00:00:51.759 one, it had fifty eight million domestically, but it also did another seventy 12 00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:57.079 two million internationally. That surprised me. I didn't think this title would play 13 00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:02.479 internationally. For a worldwide total of one hundred and thirty one million, that's 14 00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:08.159 not fantastic when you think of box office blockbusters, but it's pretty good for 15 00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:14.319 the franchise and for domestic box office generally. Would you agree, Mark, 16 00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:19.519 Oh, the world loves apes Mo and it did. It did blow past 17 00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:23.319 expectations. I think it was expected to make as much as fifty and it 18 00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:26.359 made fifty eight. That's not nothing. No, it's not nothing, not 19 00:01:26.359 --> 00:01:30.200 nothing, definitely that. But in terms of the larger box office, always 20 00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:36.079 wonder if any of these movies will do a lot to shave excuse me, 21 00:01:36.359 --> 00:01:41.079 to shift the direction of box office fortunes. Well, you need more than 22 00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:42.560 one movie, but go ahead, sure, sure. The one that's really 23 00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:48.599 hanging on despite I know your your wishes are similar to mine that it would 24 00:01:48.640 --> 00:01:53.319 go away forever is Kong or Godzilla X Kong. I think it is the 25 00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:57.519 Yeah, it won't go away. It keeps making money. It's unstoppable because 26 00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:01.879 that's it's a kind of movie that translates to all sorts of non US audiences, 27 00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:07.080 because it's a bunch of cgi monster fighting without a ton of dialogue that 28 00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:10.199 you need to pay attention to. But we still have to look at it 29 00:02:12.039 --> 00:02:17.599 through the lens of right now instead of yesteryear in previous years. Is grossed 30 00:02:19.159 --> 00:02:22.759 five hundred and fifty eight million worldwide. That's good, it's broken half a 31 00:02:22.759 --> 00:02:25.719 billion dollars. But if we were to put a Marvel movie in that slot, 32 00:02:27.319 --> 00:02:30.400 it's nothing special. Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness brought in eight hundred million, 33 00:02:30.439 --> 00:02:34.039 and people called it a flop. It was a disappointment. Yeah, 34 00:02:34.080 --> 00:02:37.719 it was spectations or relative you're right, you're right, Doctor Strange. That 35 00:02:37.919 --> 00:02:40.800 the second Doctor Strange wasn't even one of Marvel's best movies by any stretch, 36 00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:46.599 but it was solid enough to they have a built in audience whatever they do. 37 00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:51.039 So when you're talking about stuff like The Fall Guy, which, of 38 00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:53.759 course, remember The Fall Guy was a remake of a TV series, right, 39 00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:58.919 nobody exactly exactly crying out to be made, but it's still made decent 40 00:02:58.919 --> 00:03:01.919 money. It's first weekend and that fell off like fifty fifty one percent. 41 00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:07.000 It's second weekend in theaters, so anything that's not part of a franchise, 42 00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:13.080 a remake or reboot, whatever, it's a total roll of The Dice and 43 00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:15.560 The Fall Guy. Since you mentioned it did come in second place this week. 44 00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:21.199 It's gross total worldwise one hundred and three million. It will make money 45 00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:24.080 when it's done. I think I can't remember what the budget is, but 46 00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:28.400 I think it's going to beat its budget. Yeah, I don't know what 47 00:03:28.439 --> 00:03:30.759 the budget is. But those cgi things are not cheap to make. No, 48 00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:36.639 they're not. Just like you do. You recall the old plan of 49 00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:40.879 the apes where there were guys walking around and hot looking ape outfits. Those 50 00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:45.520 didn't have gigantic budgets at all. I think, no, not at all. 51 00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:49.439 It was a Halloween mask and the whole thought and the big scene when 52 00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:53.080 you had I can't remember the doctor, the female doctor ape's name zero kissing 53 00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:55.199 a human, yes, kissing humans, like, oh my goodness. You 54 00:03:55.240 --> 00:04:00.479 know a lot of symbolism there. Yeah, Hessen wasn't that much better looking 55 00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:03.639 than one of the chimps. And you got to remember that back in well, 56 00:04:03.639 --> 00:04:06.319 I think the seventy seventy one one of those things was just two and 57 00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:12.159 a half million bucks to make, and inteen nineteen seventies dollars these others are 58 00:04:12.280 --> 00:04:16.120 up in the hundreds. Yeah. Again, the expectations are different. Fall 59 00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:19.199 guy broke one hundred million. Challengers a movie I'm not going to see. 60 00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:23.800 It's just not interested in it. It has sixty eight million. I can't 61 00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:27.399 believe that its budget was much more than that. Honestly, he came in 62 00:04:27.439 --> 00:04:30.959 with four point three million this week. Taro Mark, you should know something 63 00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:33.360 about this. It's not a horror movie. It is, and I wasn't 64 00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:36.079 able to get to it. I think that was on one of the weekends 65 00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:39.439 when you were out and we didn't do any of the normal stuff. But 66 00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:43.920 it's hanging in there. And as we always point out, horror movies generally 67 00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:47.800 have low budgets, their critic proof and they always make a profit always. 68 00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:51.920 Twenty million has growth so far. I doubted took twenty million dollars to bake 69 00:04:51.959 --> 00:04:55.839 that movie, and they didn't spend much on advertising and promotion. We'll get 70 00:04:55.879 --> 00:05:00.360 a tarot too. Number five, as we talked about Godzilla Kong, brought 71 00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:05.040 in two point six million. Number six Unsung Hero. Can't tell you what 72 00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:10.040 that's about. Number seven Kung Fu Panda is still hanging around. It's not 73 00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:13.720 making huge money, but it brought in one point eight million, and it's 74 00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:16.079 gross as it broke a half a billion, five hundred and twenty nine million 75 00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:20.600 worldwide so far. So it's not nothing, as you said, Mark Ronner, 76 00:05:20.959 --> 00:05:28.600 but it's not the lofty box office expectations and returns which we're accustomed to 77 00:05:29.040 --> 00:05:32.399 in a healthy box office season. But now the summer season has officially begun, 78 00:05:33.319 --> 00:05:36.839 we'll see whether it picks up. Civil War still hanging in the top 79 00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:40.879 ten. It came in at number eight at one point eight million, and 80 00:05:40.959 --> 00:05:46.839 it's a healthy one hundred and seven million worldwide. It's gotten its budget back 81 00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:51.439 and again coming at number nine. Star Wars Episode one to Phantom Menace brought 82 00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:57.680 in another one point four million. Now, either Mark or Tuala do you 83 00:05:57.680 --> 00:06:00.120 know if they added anything, Is there any like special directors, scenes, 84 00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:05.079 added anything special about this movie? I don't think so. It's just the 85 00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:08.680 movie as it was, Just the movie as it was. Yeah, the 86 00:06:08.879 --> 00:06:13.120 added nostalgia makes you not remember how terrible it was when it came out. 87 00:06:13.439 --> 00:06:16.199 No, I've seen it. It's it's it's good and terrible. Everything with 88 00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:23.519 the Gungans and jar Jar Binks. Anything that doesn't have Darth Maul sucked. 89 00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:28.720 It's literally I don't even think it's like the special edition because they they didn't 90 00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:34.319 really go back and do much to the prequel films. It was the original 91 00:06:34.519 --> 00:06:41.839 three that they went back and did the digital remastering and adding scenes that you 92 00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:46.360 know what I mean, unless they toned down the yaes of mis you know, 93 00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:54.000 you're you're not exaggerated. Yeah, like come on. Yeah, they 94 00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:58.519 turned down the sambo sound. I mean, I don't know, no, 95 00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:02.720 and that's the thing. And nobody stood it. Stepped in and said, 96 00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:09.160 you know what, guys, this is not gonna land right that that film 97 00:07:09.399 --> 00:07:14.800 was rife with all types of ras, even the viceroy, the viceroys and 98 00:07:14.800 --> 00:07:21.240 and the entire the heavy handed messaging of dealing with Chinese companies, all the 99 00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:27.800 way down to Wato owning a garage and having that heavy, that heavy, 100 00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:32.120 heavy Middle East bed and everything. I'm just like, oh, oh, 101 00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:40.800 George of Tattoo, Okay, we got it. I get that what George 102 00:07:40.879 --> 00:07:44.240 Lucas was trying, and there was I cannot remember where the interview was where 103 00:07:44.240 --> 00:07:49.040 he said he was trying to juxtapose society as it is today and covered and 104 00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:54.000 hid it in an outer space overlay. But he wanted us to look at 105 00:07:54.000 --> 00:07:57.839 the world and see our place in it and how we are interacting. But 106 00:07:57.920 --> 00:08:01.839 I'm like, still, this is how you view us even in the world. 107 00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:07.480 I promise you. I have never gone up to Mark Orsabaca. Here's 108 00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:11.839 the big, big rennish. I can't wait for you to do it. 109 00:08:11.920 --> 00:08:15.120 That's that's going to be a special thing. But Okay, look, we 110 00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:18.199 don't have the illusions or revisionist history with George Lucas. This was after the 111 00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:22.519 issues and problems we had with the original Star Wars and New Hope, and 112 00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:26.879 while we got Lando cal Rission because in a galaxy long time ago, far 113 00:08:26.959 --> 00:08:31.720 far away, black people didn't exist. It was weird. It was strange. 114 00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:37.360 We could not get on that ship. You got that whole Star Wars 115 00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:43.080 bar with with all the aliens on tattooing and not a single brother in it. 116 00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:46.279 We could We couldn't just walk by the background us. Oh yes there's 117 00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:50.039 one, there's one tattooed. Nope, not at all, fight pilot, 118 00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:56.840 nothing, nothing. And then you had to bring out Billy d Williams and 119 00:08:58.559 --> 00:09:07.039 you know, slit smolt liquor, pass down stale wise. Yeah he clashed 120 00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:11.159 it up, didn't Yeah he did. It's like, oh, what do 121 00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:13.399 we have here? I'm trying to flirt with Lea. It's like, come 122 00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:24.759 on, Billy Day that brother Kate the walking it like James Brown please please 123 00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:33.120 please? Uh George, George, George. It's later with mo Kelly. 124 00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:35.039 Can if I am six forty, we're live every you know, I waited 125 00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:37.840 like forty five years to say that about George. It took me about forty 126 00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:43.159 five years. We're live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app you're listening to Later with 127 00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:48.279 Mo Kelly on demand from KFI Am sixty, and I was saying to Mark 128 00:09:48.360 --> 00:09:52.120 Ronner, just ribbing him a bit when he was reading some of the o 129 00:09:52.279 --> 00:09:56.679 bit for David Sanborn, who was referred to as a smooth jazz artist, 130 00:09:56.679 --> 00:09:58.120 and I had to jump and It's like, no, no, no, 131 00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:01.320 no, he's more jazz fusion artists. And that was just an example of 132 00:10:01.360 --> 00:10:07.759 it mixing funk and jazz as opposed to what we may hear on smooth jazz 133 00:10:07.840 --> 00:10:11.600 radio today. His roots were wide and varied, and he played with just 134 00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:16.080 about every artist on the sun, from Eric Clapton to Stevie Wonder and every 135 00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:20.840 musical genre in between, David Bowie, name it, he played with them. 136 00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:24.120 He was more than just a session player when he started out. He 137 00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:28.480 was one of the greatest jazz saxophonists of all time. And I didn't find 138 00:10:28.519 --> 00:10:31.799 out until tonight. I keep finding out things about people who I work with 139 00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:41.039 every single day that just blow my mind that Stephen had a father sudden connection 140 00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:46.279 to David Sanborn just like me, and you knew of his idea. It's 141 00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:48.960 like, yeah, he did smooth jazz, but that wasn't where he began. 142 00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:50.600 No, Yeah, he worked with a lot of artists we wall before. 143 00:10:50.639 --> 00:10:52.720 I mean, I mean one of his there's a video on there, 144 00:10:52.720 --> 00:10:58.679 you can YouTube it with Luther. Yeah, played Lutha band over there. 145 00:10:58.679 --> 00:11:01.600 And like you said, David Bow, he did a lot. He worked 146 00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:05.519 with a lot of people. It's insane. It is insane, and I 147 00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:11.720 wish and I wish I could do a real musical tribute, but I can't 148 00:11:11.799 --> 00:11:16.639 because of licensing issues. I can't put music in podcasts. It'll be all 149 00:11:16.679 --> 00:11:20.679 for not That's why we're playing in the bumpers as opposed to the body of 150 00:11:20.840 --> 00:11:24.360 the show. But we wanted to at least acknowledge his passing with some music. 151 00:11:24.360 --> 00:11:28.600 Over the course of the show and earlier this evening, as I switched 152 00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:33.399 gears, Tuala showed me something which really, really, I will say, 153 00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:39.399 disturb me on some level. Will Smith We've talked about any number of times 154 00:11:39.879 --> 00:11:43.919 regarding his career, what happened with the Oscar slap, what I felt should 155 00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:48.919 have happened during the show, how he should have been handled and escorted off 156 00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:52.559 the premises, and that's nothing personally becaust Will Smith. It's just when you 157 00:11:52.600 --> 00:11:56.960 assault someone there have to be consequences. There really were no consequences at night. 158 00:11:58.440 --> 00:12:03.639 He was from the show for ten years, and he lost some projects. 159 00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:09.240 Some projects were canceled, He lost money, his obviously, his his 160 00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:13.960 profile took a hit, his brand definitely took a hit, and people were 161 00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:18.840 saying many people were saying, maybe you were saying that Will Smith had been 162 00:12:18.919 --> 00:12:20.240 canceled, and I said, no, no, no, no, no. 163 00:12:20.279 --> 00:12:28.120 There is no such thing as canceled or canceled culture. There's capitalism culture, 164 00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:33.240 and you might get criticized and you might have consequences in the short term. 165 00:12:33.559 --> 00:12:37.639 For long term, you'll be hard pressed to find someone who was canceled 166 00:12:37.639 --> 00:12:41.399 for the rest of their career. I mean, even Gina Carano got work 167 00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:45.000 after Star Wars, and I heard she's begging to come back to Star Wars. 168 00:12:45.080 --> 00:12:46.360 That's not going to happen. But if you can run down the list, 169 00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:50.320 you can say mel Gibson, he's not the star that he once was, 170 00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:54.000 but no one is in their late sixties. He might be almost seventy 171 00:12:54.080 --> 00:12:58.879 now. I can't think of anyone who in anyone who's actually been canceled. 172 00:13:00.320 --> 00:13:03.360 Kevin Spacey, he's done some independent stuff. He probably will be back before 173 00:13:03.399 --> 00:13:07.120 all is said and done. And the point is Will Smith is back. 174 00:13:07.639 --> 00:13:13.320 Will Smith and John Moe will produce a big budget I'm calling it a blockbuster 175 00:13:13.559 --> 00:13:20.360 sugar bandits through his Westbrook studios. They are shopping it now. And it 176 00:13:20.440 --> 00:13:24.639 is about exploring the complex dynamics between law and order and the criminal underworld in 177 00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:30.840 film excuse me. And it's supposed to be about breaking up the drug trade 178 00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:37.720 in Boston. And Will Smith is supposed to be this a soldier or a 179 00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:41.679 Special Forces soldier who runs an elite vigilante squad trying to wipe out the drug 180 00:13:41.720 --> 00:13:46.039 trade in Boston. And it's based on a screenplay and novel Devil's in Exile 181 00:13:46.120 --> 00:13:50.919 by Chuck Hogan. That doesn't sound like he's been canceled. I might be 182 00:13:50.960 --> 00:13:56.159 wrong. No, sounds like that's he's not canceled. He's actually financed a 183 00:13:56.480 --> 00:14:00.960 Bad Boys four getting ready to come out. Doesn't sound like he's canceled. 184 00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:05.399 I don't know. I don't know what are we making up? Words are 185 00:14:05.440 --> 00:14:09.360 we calling canceled? As far as having a momentary interruption in someone's career. 186 00:14:09.399 --> 00:14:13.720 Is that being canceled? I look at the word canceled as being somewhat finite, 187 00:14:13.840 --> 00:14:20.840 like there's a difference between postponing an event and canceling an event. Yeah, 188 00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:26.080 time out, and I think Armie Hammer is not quite done with his 189 00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:28.879 time out for the whole cannibalism thing. But it's only a matter of time, 190 00:14:30.080 --> 00:14:31.639 that's just it. Yeah, it's only a matter of time. And 191 00:14:33.679 --> 00:14:37.480 who is it? Bill Maher and Bill Burr were talking about. They said 192 00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:41.600 some comedian had gotten canceled. It's like, no, just it just takes 193 00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:45.440 more time, just takes more time. Bill Maher is always babbling about cancel 194 00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:50.720 culture, which is nonsense. Uh, for someone who has never had any 195 00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:54.639 type of consequences for anything he said at any time in his career, he 196 00:14:54.679 --> 00:14:58.679 should be the last person to talk about cancel culture, because every single week 197 00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:01.519 there's someone who's trying to get rid of his show. The only difference is 198 00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:07.360 he's on HBO, their subscription base. It's not like he's as sponsors or 199 00:15:07.399 --> 00:15:09.840 anything, so it's very difficult to get rid of his show. But he's 200 00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:13.240 proof that there is no cancel culture. It's not like you can say one 201 00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:18.600 thing and your career is over. No, cancel culture is not a thing. 202 00:15:18.799 --> 00:15:22.120 In the real world. There are consequences sometimes, yep, for things 203 00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:24.600 that you say and do that are reprehensible, and that's a normal thing. 204 00:15:24.840 --> 00:15:28.879 Cancel culture not really a thing. No. I mean what happened with Kevin 205 00:15:28.919 --> 00:15:33.000 Hart. Oh, his career is doing just fine. Imagine I forgot he 206 00:15:33.120 --> 00:15:37.080 was canceled, right, I have forgotten. He's doing pretty well for somebody 207 00:15:37.120 --> 00:15:41.480 who's been canceled, doing very, very well. That's the thing. I 208 00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:48.960 just don't understand where we want to rail against something that doesn't even exist. 209 00:15:48.519 --> 00:15:52.600 Will Smith. Did he lose a lot of money? I would say absolutely, 210 00:15:52.639 --> 00:15:56.759 probably more than I'm aware of. Prettey too. He probably lost projects. 211 00:15:56.759 --> 00:16:02.000 He probably had to lay off people his production company, probably took a 212 00:16:02.039 --> 00:16:07.080 brand hit. I'm sure about all of that. But he's getting ready to 213 00:16:07.080 --> 00:16:10.679 have a major blockbuster come out in the next year or two. He has 214 00:16:10.720 --> 00:16:12.320 Bad Boys for coming out in the next month, and so I don't know 215 00:16:12.320 --> 00:16:15.120 when it's coming out. All I know is they're promoting the hell out of 216 00:16:15.120 --> 00:16:22.320 it. I'm seeing various reports of some secret meeting between Will Smith and Chris 217 00:16:22.399 --> 00:16:29.399 Rock and they're trying to, you know, bury their feud. I don't 218 00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:33.000 know if that's true or not. I hope it's not true for this reason, 219 00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:36.639 before we go to break, if you were to slap me, and 220 00:16:36.679 --> 00:16:38.440 I have to live with that meme and that embarrassment for the rest of my 221 00:16:38.519 --> 00:16:45.240 life. Any type of reconciliation has to be done publicly on my terms, 222 00:16:45.799 --> 00:16:51.360 a private apology and you know, a hashing out. It'll never undo what 223 00:16:51.399 --> 00:16:53.279 has been done. And I hope that's not the case. I hope that 224 00:16:53.360 --> 00:16:59.519 did not happen for Chris Rock's sake. But some outlets are reporting that, 225 00:16:59.559 --> 00:17:04.000 I can confirm it. I have not seen a real legitimate outlet report that, 226 00:17:04.079 --> 00:17:07.480 And if it does happen, we'll let you know. But the upside 227 00:17:07.480 --> 00:17:10.839 for will Smith, Hey, he's back to normal. Everything's good. He's 228 00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:15.400 not canceled. Oh my goodness. Once again, cancel culture does not exist. 229 00:17:15.079 --> 00:17:21.319 You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from KFI AM six forty. 230 00:17:21.839 --> 00:17:26.240 And as we get older, I would say the importance of sex may 231 00:17:26.359 --> 00:17:30.839 change. For some, it becomes less important. For others it may be 232 00:17:32.599 --> 00:17:37.359 more important. Maybe you've gone through a divorce, maybe you're having a renewal 233 00:17:37.400 --> 00:17:42.720 of vows and a second, i'll say, reinvigorated time in life with your 234 00:17:42.759 --> 00:17:48.839 spouse. Well, older people are having more sex more than ever before, 235 00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:56.279 and they're getting sti's and STDs more than ever before. And there's a reason 236 00:17:56.359 --> 00:18:02.279 or a bunch of reasons why. According to the article, rising divorce rates, 237 00:18:02.319 --> 00:18:07.400 foregoing condoms as there is no risk of pregnancy yay, menopause, the 238 00:18:07.440 --> 00:18:12.200 availability of drugs for sexual dysfunction, large number of older adults living together in 239 00:18:12.240 --> 00:18:18.559 retirement communities, and the increased use of dating apps are likely to have contributed 240 00:18:18.920 --> 00:18:26.000 to the growing incidents of STIs STDs in the over fifties. Twala, they're 241 00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:34.519 talking about you. This is you specifically, you're divorced, you're on dating 242 00:18:34.559 --> 00:18:40.160 apps. And I'll just leave it there. Yeah, let's just leave it 243 00:18:40.200 --> 00:18:47.240 at that. Well, Mark, I think he's forty nine. He won't 244 00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:51.319 tell us his AG. Let's leave me entirely out of this. There's no 245 00:18:51.359 --> 00:18:53.640 reason at all for me to be a part of this discussion in any way. 246 00:18:53.839 --> 00:18:59.319 Let's focus on Tuala spreading things around there around the dating game. Okay, 247 00:18:59.400 --> 00:19:02.160 now, look to be fair, A lot of what they're saying. 248 00:19:02.440 --> 00:19:07.400 A lot of what they're saying does make sense because once you hit a certain 249 00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:14.000 age, I can tell you for a fact that there is a lot less 250 00:19:14.319 --> 00:19:19.720 use of prophylactics among people of a certain age because you know, you're primarily 251 00:19:19.799 --> 00:19:26.920 using them for protection against disease and the possibility of pregnancy. Now, most 252 00:19:26.960 --> 00:19:30.480 of us, once we get to a certain age, we're checking constantly to 253 00:19:30.519 --> 00:19:36.519 make sure that we are free of STDs, at least I am. And 254 00:19:36.640 --> 00:19:40.559 you know, you would always hope that that whoever it is that you are 255 00:19:40.759 --> 00:19:44.920 engaging with is doing the same hope. Uh, yeah, hope. But 256 00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:48.119 this tells us that that's not the case. Yes, we would hope that, 257 00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:52.920 but this is not the case. And that maybe because as we get 258 00:19:52.960 --> 00:19:57.200 older again, if you're not chiefly concerned about pregnancy, and if you are 259 00:19:57.240 --> 00:20:03.559 in a smaller circle of people, yeah thinking, Look, when you're in 260 00:20:03.599 --> 00:20:06.400 your twenties, let me just speak for me. I'll insert myself into the 261 00:20:06.400 --> 00:20:10.039 conversation. No, Pine intended. When I was in my twenties, there 262 00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:14.599 was a larger what what's wrong? There was a larger group of people which 263 00:20:14.680 --> 00:20:18.279 I would associate with that's the word, yes, associate with. Yeah, 264 00:20:19.119 --> 00:20:23.559 and that group gets smaller and smaller as you get older. Presumably people get 265 00:20:23.559 --> 00:20:27.519 married, you get married, whatever, but you're dealing with fewer people, 266 00:20:29.960 --> 00:20:33.000 even fewer and fewer. And let's be honest, as people leave this earth, 267 00:20:33.240 --> 00:20:37.200 there are just fewer people in your social circles. Not only that, 268 00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:42.480 if you have to rely on one of those pills from I understanding, you 269 00:20:42.480 --> 00:20:45.599 need to use that pill quickly. You may not have time for all this 270 00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:49.559 fumbling around. Where's the condiment? Look, you got to go wait are 271 00:20:49.599 --> 00:20:52.960 you talking about one of the blue pills, one of the blue bills? 272 00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:56.039 I thought those were supposed to sometimes last year up to like four hours. 273 00:20:56.680 --> 00:20:59.319 No, no, no, no, you got it all wrong. You've 274 00:20:59.359 --> 00:21:03.640 got to if you want that thing to kick in, you've got to get 275 00:21:03.680 --> 00:21:07.359 active quickly. Is that right? You need to listen to the commercials better. 276 00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:14.440 If you should have your soldiers saluting for more than four hours, then 277 00:21:14.480 --> 00:21:17.759 you should call a doctor. I see, so that wanted the last four 278 00:21:17.759 --> 00:21:21.200 hours. That's the best case scenario. Is the last four hours? Right? 279 00:21:22.279 --> 00:21:25.200 That's the worst that's the worst case scenario. That means you're stuck. 280 00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:32.519 You want you want that thing to work quickly, effectively, and be done 281 00:21:32.559 --> 00:21:34.400 with it. Really, I would think that if you if you had one 282 00:21:34.440 --> 00:21:40.039 for four hours, you'd show a little gratitude with you. Now you're going 283 00:21:40.039 --> 00:21:41.680 to the hospital, No, sir, I see you are on your way 284 00:21:41.720 --> 00:21:45.359 to saying at least he died happy, that's what's gonna happen. Wow. 285 00:21:45.519 --> 00:21:48.799 Yeah, man, So kind of like John Entwhistle of the Who. Whether 286 00:21:48.839 --> 00:21:52.480 they found him in a hotel room where he was with a couple of a 287 00:21:52.559 --> 00:21:57.480 couple of professionals, or David Carridy in your favorite, Well, they found 288 00:21:57.559 --> 00:22:03.119 him hanging up in a closet with autoerotic asphyxiation. I thought it wasn't that 289 00:22:03.160 --> 00:22:06.559 how he was found. Yeah, but I'm quite sure he was happy when 290 00:22:06.559 --> 00:22:11.359 he went. So you think that he took a blue pill to service himself? 291 00:22:11.759 --> 00:22:17.319 Absolutely? If that or cocaine, don't know the hell of a drug. 292 00:22:17.359 --> 00:22:21.160 That's got to be the height of narcissism to take a blue pill to 293 00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:25.240 be with yourself. Do you know anything about David Cardy For as much as 294 00:22:25.279 --> 00:22:26.480 you like the movie Kung Fu, you need to research him. Oh. 295 00:22:26.599 --> 00:22:34.559 I think he's terrific, But he had he had some court he was an 296 00:22:34.559 --> 00:22:37.640 individual. Yeah, that would have called him. Now, Yeah, for 297 00:22:37.680 --> 00:22:41.839 sure. Yeah, I mean, if it's the last thing I do, 298 00:22:41.240 --> 00:22:45.480 I'm gonna get you to admit that Kung Fu was one of the greatest things 299 00:22:45.519 --> 00:22:48.839 ever created for television. But that's not what we have to do tonight. 300 00:22:48.880 --> 00:22:52.480 I want to let's stick on the blue pills that fasts. But there is 301 00:22:52.519 --> 00:22:57.200 some i'll say cultural norms here. According to this Yahoo article quote this generation, 302 00:22:57.359 --> 00:23:03.920 I guess they're referring to boomers or not even gen X. This generation 303 00:23:03.079 --> 00:23:08.839 rarely considers using protection because they came up age when sex education in school did 304 00:23:08.880 --> 00:23:14.480 not exist, HIV was virtually unheard of, and their main concern was to 305 00:23:14.519 --> 00:23:18.440 avoid pregnancy. This is an associate professor, excuse me, professor of political 306 00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:23.799 science at Lola Marymount. Yeah, I guess, I mean, I guess 307 00:23:23.880 --> 00:23:27.039 I mean that. Yeah, if talking about kids just right under me, 308 00:23:27.559 --> 00:23:33.240 that's fine. I mean, but my generation, we grew up when going 309 00:23:33.240 --> 00:23:37.559 to the clinic was a thing. We came up when go see the doctor, 310 00:23:37.599 --> 00:23:41.920 and every other rap song or R and B song about getting the heavy 311 00:23:41.039 --> 00:23:48.240 gvs was all over the place, billboards, death everywhere associated with sex. 312 00:23:48.559 --> 00:23:52.400 So we are at that age where if we're not going to use protection. 313 00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:59.559 It's a damn good reason where we grew up to your point, Tawaala immersed 314 00:23:59.839 --> 00:24:03.480 in the HIV. I don't want to call it scared. It was a 315 00:24:03.519 --> 00:24:08.240 pandemic, absolutely, but we had all that education. We had sex education, 316 00:24:08.680 --> 00:24:14.240 we had HIV education. I remember when I was a freshman in college, 317 00:24:14.599 --> 00:24:19.079 we had someone come in and specifically train all the guys how to put 318 00:24:19.119 --> 00:24:25.359 on a condom. No joke, no exaggeration. No, he's a cucumber, 319 00:24:25.680 --> 00:24:29.279 getting very serious, but you're warm. But the cucumber, I guess, 320 00:24:29.400 --> 00:24:34.359 was more realistic, more hopeful, certainly. But we all came up 321 00:24:34.400 --> 00:24:37.799 in a different age. And I know anyone who's older than we are, 322 00:24:38.200 --> 00:24:42.480 they had none of that, none of that. You would think our generation, 323 00:24:42.640 --> 00:24:48.319 the gen X generation, would be more careful, given we know more 324 00:24:48.799 --> 00:24:51.799 allegedly, Yeah, I thought we were terrified right out of it, Like 325 00:24:51.839 --> 00:24:57.839 we wouldn't even consider touching somebody unless we had like a full beekeeper outfit on. 326 00:24:59.680 --> 00:25:02.000 No. But Twalla makes a great point. There was a lot of 327 00:25:02.119 --> 00:25:07.960 music talking about sex and HIV concerns. The Kumo d song Go See the 328 00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:11.799 Doctor. That was That was our upbringing. That was very normal for us. 329 00:25:12.000 --> 00:25:15.759 Solid pepper. I mean, that's right.

Yep, and you set it 374 00:29:02.920 --> 00:29:07.400 up on the twenty fourth after we get off the air. Yes, what 375 00:29:07.480 --> 00:29:12.240 in the hell weren't you were you thinking Friday night, May twenty fourth after 376 00:29:12.279 --> 00:29:15.680 the show? We have been talking about it for I don't know how long 377 00:29:15.720 --> 00:29:21.000 that we were going to go and see Furiosa. No, but we didn't 378 00:29:21.000 --> 00:29:23.319 talk about got after the show. No, that's the only time to see 379 00:29:23.319 --> 00:29:27.319 it. That's the only time to see it, because all the other times 380 00:29:27.559 --> 00:29:33.240 are an opportunity. I'm not gonna wait till Monday or the weekend. We 381 00:29:33.359 --> 00:29:36.359 have to see it and just have to be Friday night. The last time 382 00:29:36.400 --> 00:29:41.960 we saw a movie after work was the damn Aquaman two movie and we fell 383 00:29:41.000 --> 00:29:42.880 asleep. Ho I oh, no, no, no, no. This 384 00:29:44.079 --> 00:29:49.519 is Furiosa. And for my understanding, even even Mad Max experts, bona 385 00:29:49.559 --> 00:29:56.160 fides, people who know Mad Max fans and creators alike, are saying that 386 00:29:56.319 --> 00:30:02.920 this film outshines Fury Road. This film takes it to another level as far 387 00:30:03.000 --> 00:30:07.839 as the beauty, the spectacle, the characters, the tension, the action, 388 00:30:08.359 --> 00:30:12.079 every single thing you want from this film, it's there. And I 389 00:30:12.079 --> 00:30:15.799 gotta seek us to Dolby so we're gonna hear it's going to be in your 390 00:30:15.960 --> 00:30:19.279 chest. Man. I gotta take a nap before I go to work that 391 00:30:19.359 --> 00:30:22.119 day because this will take a nice long nap before you come in. Oh, 392 00:30:22.319 --> 00:30:25.519 quit your one and listen. I'll tell you. The reason that we 393 00:30:25.599 --> 00:30:30.640 fell asleep during Aquaman had nothing to do with the lateness of the hour. 394 00:30:30.799 --> 00:30:37.279 Okay, it helped. Look, if that film wasn't crappy, we would 395 00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:41.559 have been up. It was crappy, and it pleased to sleep the last 396 00:30:41.599 --> 00:30:47.079 day away. That was some raw sewage. We endured that that's why we 397 00:30:47.119 --> 00:30:49.119 fell asleep. But just so the listeners know, I love that. In 398 00:30:49.240 --> 00:30:55.279 the group chat, he Mo immediately agreed to it, and then uh to 399 00:30:55.359 --> 00:30:57.200 Wala had to he messed up on the date or something, so he had 400 00:30:57.240 --> 00:31:00.799 to re send it out. And then and then that Mogo is after a 401 00:31:00.839 --> 00:31:07.440 couple other responses, Wait eleven, pope, Yeah, because we've gone in 402 00:31:07.440 --> 00:31:11.440 the morning, morning, early afternoon before. It's my favorite part. Yeah. 403 00:31:11.519 --> 00:31:15.759 Yeah. This interferes with your early bird special. It interferes with you 404 00:31:17.400 --> 00:31:23.079 if you watching Jeopardy and having an early bedtime. It does I eat dinner 405 00:31:23.119 --> 00:31:29.599 at four o'clock. Huh you take out your teeth and soak them and go 406 00:31:29.720 --> 00:31:32.559 to sleep. That's right. But it's Friday, it's special. This will 407 00:31:32.599 --> 00:31:36.720 be a special occasion for you. I need to have someone send me an 408 00:31:36.799 --> 00:31:41.359 uber. Just take a nap, mo taking that. When you come in, 409 00:31:41.640 --> 00:31:45.440 you can be like Mark, good morning, and it'll be like five 410 00:31:45.480 --> 00:31:48.440 o'clock or something. Yeah, I'll just have you do the show that night. 411 00:31:49.400 --> 00:31:56.319 No, go to work too. Were going to be here, Well, 412 00:31:56.440 --> 00:31:59.839 we're all gonna be here and then we're gonna wait. No, no, 413 00:32:00.000 --> 00:32:01.119 here's what you can do though. Oh, here's what you after the 414 00:32:01.119 --> 00:32:04.359 show. You can go downstairs and take a nap in your car. I'll 415 00:32:04.400 --> 00:32:07.839 find I'll wake you up. No, no, I'm not soe who can 416 00:32:07.880 --> 00:32:10.960 go to sleep after seven o'clock. I'm done? Oh that is true. 417 00:32:12.000 --> 00:32:14.000 Yeah, no, no, no, I'm not gonna go to sleep at 418 00:32:14.039 --> 00:32:19.680 ten o'clock.
