Children, get back into your season. Your way, Lady Erica, minute
you get young man bad present there. What you said, suck my biles,
Well go ahead rip them out and I'll suck them. Yeah, that's
what mister Garrison would have said to share Teacher to share, kick Ah.
Welcome to going down to south by the podcast where we always have our sales
of time, and this week it is new intro, new show. It
feels like a whole new South Park, doesn't it's fourth grade? I'm Dando
and I am going Yes. We're feeling very, very professional today. We've
got lights, we've got cameras. We don't have a whole lot of action.
Not much action yet, no not yeah, for give us time.
We're working up to it. But yes, we are talking about fourth grade,
the eleventh episode of season four of South Park, and this a whole
new era for the gang. Do you think the fourth grade? This episode
feels like a rebrand, not a rebrand, but it feels a fresh coat
of paint, an unnecessary coad of paint in my opinion, because I watched
this going Miss chokes on Dick, a funny gag I guess in the writer's
room. The more it said the less it felt funny, and I'm not
I know they've been met Garrison in season six, right, but I'm not
going to be a fan of the next two seasons if she's going to be
the Constantina because I just watched this going. When you have her next to
Garrison, you look at it go she is so bland compared to Garrison.
I know Garrison's had three and a half seasons now to really know find it
about the character and things like that, but it's just a funnier character.
Miss chokes and Dick so one her boobs hanging below her stomach, that's so
one note. It's a very one note gag, and it really only works
for a couple of reasons. I mean, the main one is you see
it early in the episode. They don't really play it up too much,
and maybe they play it up in future episodes where chokes on Dick is just
an obvious gag and Abby's name to make fun of because she jokes and Dick.
Do you get it, folks? But well, Tray and Matt said
in the commentary that the didn't want to say chokes on Dick. You can
say it, but it's going to be chokes on dish. Yeah, and
then they went by a third episode they didn't give a shit. Yeah,
but the kids don't realize what an obvious layup joke it is. Cartman should
realize that. Yeah, but they're all going more like miss makes me sick.
It's like it's right there. Yeah, that's great. But it really
pays off later in this episode when I forgot exactly how how it worked.
But she meets up with Garrison and in the mountains, Yeah, it's like
chokes on, that's not true. That was the payoff. That's the payoff.
Essentially. I thought the story with Garrison here, this was a Garrison
episode, despite the fact that she's the new teacher. This was him coming
out of fishally. Yeah, that's the thing. And like you say,
with the rebrands, like we are taking existing elements and yeah, switching them
up, chopping them up a bit. Yeah, the show didn't really need
a fresh coat of pain. It was looking pretty spick and span as it
was. But they're smart and they they pretty much lay out the message by
the very end, saying, you know, the adventure of life is that
there are always something new. It's something I've always liked it about South Park.
They they're not afraid to have these messages that seem come somewhat obvious or
even a bit trinky or sugary or whatever. But they've front loaded the episode
with so much vulgarity whatever or off color business that by the end you're kind
of like, oh that No, that message actually makes sense, and no,
I kind of feel a bit good about hearing. I actually thought that
was really nice. So they still had their you know, I learned something
today and that was miss chokes on Dick taking it from Kyle this time.
But yeah, just the message at the end. Do you agree about the
whole We shouldn't want to go back to the past. And I'm like,
I get what you're saying. I agree to an extent that you know,
going back in time. There's no need for it. I've already been there,
the been there, done that. But the thing is, some moments
you're trying to think to yourself, I'd really like to experience that again.
Oh, absolutely a lot of fun. That really knows that that hamburger that
you can't buy anymore, well, you just exist in that memory, and
you know, sitting now for a minute and think back to the I think
I've always talked about the beef Master that they had at macas. Yeah,
it's probably a double quarter pounded with just a different name, that's all.
But it was just a burger with a lot of meat in it. Nikola
doesn't like m DALs or that often. I wentn't got hash browns for the
kids yesterday, and I thought, test Nicholas here because it's crap. It's
the worst takeaway. I agree to an extent. You get a burger waving,
but she I got her the beef and bacon burger, McMuffin or whatever
it was. She loved. It showed you trying to downplay your attraction to
the clown exactly. But but yeah, I just agree that. You know,
we shouldn't have to go back. But nostalgia the hell of a drug
man, it really is. That's why this show exists. We're going back
and discussing a show from what nineteen was it two thousand now, but it
began ninety seven. This is very much two thousand. They're letting you know
that, well, they were letting you know that with the title of b
Jebbis. I wholly agree with him. Look, I've got you know,
so many movies and books that I grew up reading and that I will occasionally
go back to. And I mean I really have to sort of grab myself
by the by the collar and say, watch new things, read new things.
I want to, I don't want to. I don't have This ends
And it's good. That's precisely it isn't it, Because you know, so
many people are talking about, oh, particularly when it comes to culture,
we're only using existing ip or only remaking stuff, or we're just going back
and watching reading, listening to the same old, same old, same old.
And it's because, yeah, we know how it ends. This is
a very unpredictable time in human history, like all times in human history and
all honesty, if you can predict that, well, you'd probably be doing
pretty well as a psychic or something like that. But now more than ever,
it seems no, I don't want to be surprised by anything. Just
I'm reveling in the comfort. I just want to rewatch friends. I want
to rewatch I want to watch The Office over and over and over again.
I want to hang out with my cool buddies. Yeah, that's the thing.
It's in the same relationships. People don't leave relationship because they're like,
eh, this is comfortable. You know. I don't want to trust something
new. I want to be completely happy, you know, and you know
what you're get. Then you get the meme of the dog in the flame
room say this is fine, but no, I mean I really responded to
chokes On Dick's Yeah, final message here it's it's there's always something forward.
Yeah, yeah, I like they caught the comment of life the best games
of the ones almost in job of games, the ones that get harder as
you play. Yeah, absolutely, Yeah, wish life wasn't hard, though,
What can life just stop being hard for a little while? I tend
to think that, and I remember thinking that when I was your rage Dan,
I mean you. I remember reading interviews with actors saying I love to
be challenged. I'm like, I don't know. I'd rather, you know,
just do the same thing day and day out and maybe get a nice
check for it, and that'd be that. It reminds me last night something
happened with either the soundbar disconnected from the TV right no, for some reason
it wouldn't reconnect, and Nicola walked in after exercising forty five minutes, she
goes, why is it sound so bad in the TV. I went,
oh, the sound bar is not working. She goes, oh, did
you just unplug? Plug back? And I don't want to get up.
I don't have to make an effort. That is not where I imagine this
story going. But it was just she goes, you would rather sit there
and listen to a TV that shound ship then take three steps and fix it
all? Right? Now, this is going to be old man shaking fistic
cloud again. Lou the Lovely Luise us that the other day. She said,
were shaking your fist and the cloud again? I said, yeah,
it was, it's fun. Oh it really is. Welcome to Welcome to
my world. Yeah. Do all TVs need a soundbar these days? Has
it sort of become that thing where I think they've made sound shit and TVs
because it's like, hey, Samsung TV, you should get a Samsung sambar
as well. Are we watching stuff on you know, my Samsung TV.
Samsung friend of the pod, we wish, we wish, come get to
know him, come and knock on out door. Are you listening? Yeah,
but there'll be occasional shows on occasional services or whatever. It's like,
eh, what speak up? Here. I don't want to necessarily have to
watch this with the subdimes. I wouldn't mind hearing what's going on having a
crank at the like seventy on the seventy Maybe I think it's just because year
old. That could be old, or it could have been like a bad
file or a bad discourse. There is zero bass in TV speakers these days.
You put the soundbar and it was like, oh, okay, there's
some bass. But I honestly believe they make TV is now to sound shit,
so you have to buy the soundbars. Bas is life, we need
bass base. Of course, it's all about the bass. Absolutely. Getting
back to our fourth grade though, I really enjoyed just the wholesomeness of even
though they were I guess wrong at the end, but there I missed the
great. I took it back to when I was kid, just like,
oh, new grade, new teacher. Oh this is scary. I've forgotten
which kid did it? But rightly incursive fractions again? Do it? This
tweak? It was tweet? Was that tweak? Oh yeah, but there's
another gidded person. It is after you've seen the song, it's just silence
and closset. I was that kid. This reminded me of an instance in
my own life actually involving fourth grade, because I'm sure I mentioned on a
previous four thing, a Discount Network podcast, that I had a year when
my family moved to England. This was nineteen seventy nine and I would have
been in grade four. I stayed in Australia. So I went to this
new school in England and you know, coming out of grade three, Oh,
it's all spelling and writing little stories that maybe you know are twenty years
long, very innocent. Yeah, you're not expected to know too much,
you know, we sort of we're building the foundations of your learning, educational
experience whatever. I get to this English school and they're like learning French.
This is very you were there from Canada, and they think I'm slow,
eh, very much, incredibly much right down the fact where we had a
history class and they realized that I knew nothing, and they thought they were
giving me like an easy lay up question, like, oh, okay,
guy, clearly you don't know. I don't know when was the Battle of
Hastings, And everyone around me is like, of course he's going to know
when that is. I'm like Betler worker, you got to England to go
Australias existed for thousands of years. No it has not. Oh we found
it a couple hundred years ago. Stop giving me Sex of the Best,
six of the Best with the guy Sex of the Best gone. That was
a Freudian slip. But I was like Badler, what now, I'm terrible
with history as well. I've always been that way. Yeah, but I
mean this was like a quantum leap from what I was studying back in Australia.
But you don't have your pen license yet kind of Yeah, that was
that was a big deal in school, getting your pen license. I think
they were actually using like fountain pens back in this school. Yeah, just
go pluck your evident scooge just so and then go pluck your quill from the
school turkey or something like that. But yeah, that transition, and then
when I came back to Australia a year later, who's this guy for years
knows about history? And shit, we're sort of talking in fred what are
you talking about? Punch? Yeah, but it felt like that that fourth
grade year was one where there was a bit of social development as well.
It came it's like you guys got girlfriend's name discovered girls. Yeah, what's
going on? But it kind of feels like the teachers just go all right,
stuff sucking about, let's actually learn some stuff because you're you're two year
away from high school and you know, shit, Yeah, we're kicking it
up a notch. Yeah. What are your favorite moments from fourth grade?
I had quite a few, as listeners have gone down to South Park.
No, I'm a big fan of when Trey and Matt and the crew just
make little noises. And you heard one very when they started bullying a poor
little third grader. I think you're gonna say, oh my god, now
hell, but that's just that's how you feel. I never felt the need
though. You watched TV and it's always like we've got to bully the kids
at a young and I never felt that urge or the need to have to
bully young kids. It was I think, going to show you maybe it's
encouraged. We have the buddy system. So Elliott when he went to his
orientation last year, at the end of last year, before he started school,
he went to orientation and he had a buddy, and they assigned a
buddy who's in grade six, and every Friday the buddy comes into the classroom,
they spend an hour having out a valiant just sort of make him feel
not scared of the older kids. It's a good system, absolutely this.
Yeah, I mean we didn't have much like that at my school. I
had a buddy. We certainly had a process where maybe once a year or
once a term even you would go and, say you were in grade five
or something, you would hang out with the preps for a lesson, like
you know, I read him and mister Men book. There's always there,
mister Men books. Man, that's a flashback. They were that and the
Where's Wally or Waldo for American listeners, Where's Wally books were a smash it.
Yeah, but you got to feel like, oh, you know,
I'm helping tutor and nurture the next generation to the next generation exactly right.
Stay clear of that teacher. That teacher pretty much all the teachers. Yes,
yeah, we had we had one teacher and I love him now,
mister Wallen. Right, look back, I've tried to contact him. Can't
find him anywhere. No, he's still around, but can't find him anywhere.
He's not on Facebook. But he was the guy that used to play
old songs when we were in the classroom. Right, mister Wallan's playing the
other Suns again. You look back now as David Bowie the Beatles, and
it's like this motherfucker introduced me to the greatest songs of all time. But
at the time like put this bas girls out. But he don't anything.
But he was the teacher who did exactly. But you'd be out in the
in the playground and if you saw him, he used to maybe people pick
up papers. So if you do something, you give me fifty papers and
you have to clean up the school yard. It's like not only he pushing
it, but he's clean the school. What a fucking genius this guy was.
It was a lateral thing. But you see me, you go run.
What kind of mad max waste land? Was your school? We had
fifty papers for primary school, my friend. But if anyone who lives near
Geelong, and that's exactly what I am talking about, it does exist anymore.
I think it's called Northern Bay. They the area is so rough they
had to combine all the schools into one school and go, we've got to
lock you in the one cage. Escape from New York and you were snakeskin.
Yes, yeah, some other stuff that I enjoyed from this episode.
I do like it when kids start getting more mature, but they start using
fifty cent words in the vogueab that they don't quite understand or they're just prone
to fucking up. I think you hear stand say he wants to say,
we've got to assert ourselves, and he says, we want to win,
We've got to win. Yeah. I did also enjoy the hell cartman going
for every time this is weaky gas weak gas back. You know when I
was at my old John that was the last job, was one of the
jobs anyway where they complained about this and complain about that and all right,
let's make a stand together. And then the boss would walk in. Everyone's
like, I'm like you weak motherfuckers. What happened to solid exactly? What
happened? A union? Strong? And my probably my favorite part of this
episode. This is one that I'd remembered for a very long really. Okay,
well it's a pretty monumental episode, it is. But yeah, there's
always bits in certain episodes. Oh this is that bit, pretty yeah,
this was, but's being unsure about the whole fruit ball. Well, get
Brito's fruit but I think this was its first time I've heard fruit ball.
I thought that's genius. I wasting exact same. I've never heard it,
but maybe think of Papa Jews the Penis when he said everyone's done a bit
of mooning. And then you know you always had the one kid who took
it a bit too far. It was like game, a nice brown eye
waking to spreads him and you're like, what are you doing? It's too
much. That looks like it hurts. The time there was ship, this
is this is insulting everybody. This is no good for anyone. It's not
good for you, and it's not good for the person who has to see
it. Adding the fruit ball so it makes it sound pleasant, makes it
sound like you're getting a bit of a treat. There are other bits with
those were my my main ones. But Butters is that kid. Though I've
gotten my notes letter in the episode, but I can't work him out yet.
I mean, I know who he becomes, but when you're watching the
show in order, it's like he's that weird kid and you're like, you're
weird, but you also you seem like you're with it, but you're not
with it. I can't quite work you out. You're not quite Ralph Wigham.
I think said he's a combination of what Millhouse and Ralph combined. I
think so. I mean, I don't know if we've seen it so far,
think we already have. But you know, there's an episode where someone
goes into the bathroom and butters is that you've only just dropped his pants completely.
I don't think it's happened down on the show, okay, but I
think that is amazing. I think that's what are you doing. He's getting
a glimpse into their home life. Oh dear. I've got friends right whose
kids they call it a bushwii right where you know you we on a tree,
right, But it's like, uh, we're near a toilet. If
you're near a public toilet, if we're at a park, go to the
toilet, right, encourage actual decent human human behavior. But then our friends
like I needed a week, I'll go to a bushwee. He just drops
his dacks and pisses next to the playground. I'm like, that's not acceptable.
This kid's six, now, yeah, go piss in the toilet.
What are you doing bush wei? No, we're not in the bush at
this local park. That's a tree that was planned by the cancil. This
isn't the bush at all. Camping Okay, pissed where you want. We
all want pissed next to the slide. We all know that one of the
great things about you being male is that the outdoors is one giant toilet.
But at the same time, if they want to as well, that's true.
It's just harder, that's all. Thank you, Thank God for the
invention of the shei weed. So is the she weed that using a forward
Yes? Yes, so Holly the other day drops the decks and like whizzes
like thought. I was like, hell are you doing this? Wait a
minute, It looked like she was just pitch changes everything. It's just like
whizzing forward. I was like, huh, it's like they've taught them how
to do it a daycare or something. She's like sort of semi squats and
just goes. It was like coming out forwards. I was like, well,
there you go. All these years, soon the girls will just be
standing in front of the toilet, dogs and cats living together in hysterio.
Did you what else to do? I enjoyed when the device actually works and
everyone's just in stun silence because it's like, I don't know why it took
me so much, but you think, what would you do if you're in
that moment where you go building a time device. It's not gonna work.
But it actually worked. Like funck was Timmy gonna do? Whe's Timmy get
back? I thought it would have been a fun season long arc to does
to see Timmy occasionally pop up in various places, but they sort of sported
by the end. They didn't really focus on Timmy much, being other universes
or whatever at the time. Yeah, like you saw him with the triceratops
and that's it. Yeah, And I thought, ah, kind of felt
like a wasted opportunity. But you've sent this kid back through time. Yeah,
I like your idea of just in the rest of the future episodes in
the season four, just little cutaways. He's there, He's there, He's
here, he is there. Yes. Yes. The thing is, though
these guys have now created a device that you can travel back in time.
Do they refer to this ever? Again, I do not believe. And
damn your spirit hold me no longer. When he was talking to his gay
side, it was that was I liked the Star Wars parody there. It
was good, wasn't it? Yeah, especially that you will need. I
think I've told this on Fourthing a discount My uncle Darren, friend of the
pop support of us in Patreon, he was in KFC right and food and
it was when though, I think it was the trilogy just come out.
It must have been like ninety seven, right, if you've got your Fourthing
a discount network bingo card uncle Darren KFC and he we went, I must
being with the trilogy. Was that because it is like Star Wars shit.
Everywhere I was, I had toys and stuff and I was walking down and
love Star Wars obviously, and we're waiting for ages for our food. Over
this chit just goes sorry about the way, and Michael Dadis goes, you
will be. I had no idea what he's talking about. She was just
crept out with this old man saying you will be. That could easily go
down the wrong way. You will be. You will be. She was
like, man, I'm just working. Yeah, I don't know what's going
on. Was this was this prequel trilogy? No, this was when they
re release. Yeah, I think it's ninety seven when they did that.
Yeah, but I thought it was hilarious. It's late for me, it,
that's okay. Remember there are no stupid questions, just stupid people.
Do you have any trivia questions for us, mister Davis, I have precisely
three. Okay, then hit me with one of them. Okay, Then
what time are the kids pulling down their pants? Eight thirty five? Thirty
five? One presumes am? My first question is how long do you have
to get into the wormhole once it's opened? Oh, the nerds say it
when they're in the classroom. It's like four point two second, don't Yeah?
Four point two? Yeah, that's right. It's like something like exactly
four point two something like that. Speaking of time, how long did mister
Garrison stare at mister Mackie's penis? Seven minutes? It was seven times?
And numbers, this one isn't it very much? So? Yeah, this
one's not about numbers. This one's about locations. Where does ms chokes on
Dick come from? Oh, she's from den Denver. Yeah, same as
the kid who got slapped last week. I believe it was, even though
he's Detroit. He is the preacher. Yeah, yeah, I've got more
questions. By the way, I'm out, I have one more yes,
and it's also location related. The Battlestar Galactic A two part episode is titled
What's Something on Something? Yeah? Now it's my notes, but I won't
cheat. What is it? It is Gonzo on ice Planet zero. I
read it, call him like muppets Gonzo. Yes, I love cheesypoofs.
You love cheesypoofs. Weed didn't jeesypoofs sweet? Be all right? Cheeseypoof time.
We love cheesepoofs so so tasty. Starting with Katie g Troit. Sorry,

What we'd love to do is make it to the point where Dando has to
take two breaths so become cheesepoops. Become a cheesepook. Yeah, Tom,
supporters of ours on Patreon, we may need it because Facebook's lost, like,
hey, fourthing a discount. Guess what you ain't the real fourth Finger
Discount and they have. So if you're wondering, because we're part of the
Fourth Thing of Discount network, listener, if you're wondering, where has the
four Finger Discount Facebook page gone? What good question? So I logged on
on Sunday here in Australia and it says your page has been unpublished for fake
identity. I went, that's strange because I seem to think that I'm still
me and I seem to think that we've always been the fourth Finger Discount podcast.
And it turns out there's a dummy account from Pakistan who are using our
name, image and everything and marketing fake competians and people have obviously complained about
it, and they have canceled the wrong page. Indeed, look, these
are the people that we have to blame. But this joke is too fun
not to make. I'm gonna say Zuckerberg more like fuck up aer Burg?
Am I right, holling be working on that one plan approximately three second and
worth every second joke was right there, and now our page is no longer
that hopefully. I've been in touch with them and they say it should be
a mistake and they could fix it, but you know, we'll have to
wait and see. We were told anytime between twenty eight twenty eight, sorry,
twenty four hours and forty eight days years. But the thing is,
when you have free hundred and ten thousand followers to market a show too,
it makes it a lot easier to market the show. When that's not there
anymore, shit be hard, and we rely, we rely on the sport
of all you guys. So if you can please support the show, it
would be really appreciated, especially in trying times like this. Certainly damn your
Facebook, exactly right. But let's get into our review of fourth Grade,
shall we. Let's do it. Let's do it. So. The odginal
edit of fourth Grade was November ninth, two thousand and it was written by
and directed by who do you think I'm going to say, Trey Parker,
but yeah no, Trey Parker. Also Matt Stone and David R. Goodman
helped write the episode Good on Him, Yes, good on him? Good
It's gonna like a Goodman joke. Didn't work. Not enough syllables. That's
not everyone can come up with fuck up a bit. They're just fun up
killing it anyway. So how does fourth grade kick off? Mister Davis,
can you remember in your notes, I just started with the fourth grade,
So as the kids arriving at the golf for the fourth grade, and it's
very intimidated, Like how did you used to get sort of like introduced to
the new teacher? Because when I was at school, which was nineties,
the end of the year, I thought the last second, last day or
whatever, the new teacher would come in and you would be told these kids
are now in your class. You'd go into the classroom, you'd spend like
the rest of the afternoon with a new teacher and your new classes. You're
like, oh, but my friends in the other class when you spend the
whole summer going when you see room anymore, yeah, I think it might
have just been launched on us when we when he came back. Yeah,
that's brutal. It's been a long time since I was cool, and certainly
around this era, but I do recall certainly in fifth grade, I was
like, oh, my mates are in the class with this teacher. And
I've got a few mates in this class, I guess, but still that
seems like the place to be, and I'm in the place not to be.
And then you realize, oh, I just make new friends. That's
true. But when you're a kid, though, your friend is your friend
for life very much. So yeah, yeah, so yeah, you find
yourself sneaking over there at recess or what this looks really cool? Look a
look at all those cool finger paintings, expecting the best friends for life.
So we get a phone call on Friday saying from Elliott's one of the teachers
saying, now, Alice said anything wrong, there's no issue here. We
just need to let you know that we had a moment here at school today
where Elliot was kissed on the lips by another student. I was like,
oh, really, okay, why she goes well she wants him to be
her best friend forever, and I was like, ah, okay, yeah,
and then she's up a bit. But just because he was kissing the
lips, we just want let you know in case he comes home and tells
you. We are aware of it, and we've said to her kissing in
the lips probably not allowed. Just you know, just I you want to
tell you want to be your best friend? Just ask them? Is like
hot, Well, yes, Alliot said his first kiss and he's watched three
weeks into school little heartbreak legend. Don't hard to get. I mean I
couldn't. It was a grade six faces Like a minute, this mentoring has
gone all wrong. It was his buddy. But yeah, So the kids
who arrived at the fourth grade door there, they're nervous as they would be,
and they think they're gonna be not gonna beaten up by the fifth graders
anymore. But they are, of course because you know fourth graders and their
fifth grade, yes exactly, so hierarchy. So they think they now have
to beat up the third grade. It's very much a thing in American shows
and movies where the older grade beats up the younger grade. It was in
Hayanold as well. I remember you neat obviously group Nickelodeon, and the fourth
graders or their thickular whatever, they're always the bullies. My version of this
is the great movie Dazed and Confused. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah,
the end of end of the school year, like right, well you
go get to haze the younger kids's look, why Yeah, it's almost like
it's the sacle of abuse. It's almost the circle of abuses, supposed circle
of life. But they it's almost like they plant the idea of sorority from
a very young agent school in America. It's like it's always about the hazing.
It's like why you should be open, arms, encouraged to help,
you happy to be surrounded by these lovely new kids. I think it's very
dark winning and it's very much survival of the fittest. Like I mean,
the school yard is survival of the fittest. Oh my god, it's an
absolute jungle. Yeah, so certainly, I think when it comes to colleges
and universities and fraternities and sororities and things like that, I imagine it slong
the lines of we're going to put you through hell. But once that happens,
we're bros for life. You know. It's like, hey, you
want a job at you know this Fortune five hundred company. While we were
in the same frat, come on board. Yeah, I've never been in
a frat or anything like that. If you ever you didn't go to college
year, we have college, we have we have university. Yeah, we
don't have really I don't think we have frats around. I've never had anything
about a frat house when I was at university. Nah, it's a very
American thing. But our American friends. If you want, if you have
frat experiences, means share with South at gmail dot com. But they decide
here they're going to insert themselves, stand up, drop their pants and say
kiss our ass. But I just loved Butters just in the fruit bowl.
It's so innocent, but it's almost like where did he what is it?
How does he know what a fruitball is? True, it's almost like a
he's got Kenny elements. I feel like Butters, don't you think like he
seems learned? But also not he's a very innocent pervert. Yeah, so
we're showing o's like I think the ars will suffice. But but yeah,
I's got my notes here. I was just getting flashbacks of Puppetuded the Penis
when he mentioned the fruit bowl. I never saw Puppetude the Penis. Did
you ever see it? I never saw it live. No, No,
I've never seen it on TV or anything. They always sensitive went had a
sheld on TV? Were they? That's right? I mean it was an
Australian thing. Was it was? It go international? It went very into
that really, Okay. I think we would go to you know, the
Edinburgh Comedy Festival or the Edinburgh Fringe Festival quite a bit. I'm not sure
it went to America, but it was quite popular when overseas for a while.
These guys must have had massive wings, right to be able to do
tricks. I mean I could do one trick. It's called scared Turtle.
I can do one trick. It's called the buffalo bill. What is that?
It sounds the lamps? Oh ship, Yes, I'm thinking Bubbalo bill.
But Ice scream like, what the fuck is the bubblo what? And
they're taking it the strange new places more like me, I'm looking hot.
That is a big, big hit with the Lovely Luist. That is a
what was the other? Bad news was Bad Bubby? What was it?
Oh? Bad Boy, Bad Boy Bubby. That was a fuck up movie.
They came on like SBS and I was a kid, I was like,
what am I watching? Yeah that's really weird. Yeah that's a strange
movie. That's Australian, right it is, Yeah, very very weird,
sort of the movies which hadn't That's all he screwsy his mum right, yes,
yeah, let's move on to go back to something wholesome like South Barck.
Yes, dropping their pants and giving fruit balls. Everybody. We need
to stand up to this new teacher and insert ourselves. Let's all do something
radical like what like how about right at eight thirty five, we all jump
up on our desks, pull down our pants, and shout, kiss my
ass all together? Yeah? Perfect? So then when we pull our pants
down, should we stand front lazer back? Honey? Do we sure they
hid our wieners? I think showing our asses will be quite sufficient. Butters,
maybe we could stand like this with our waiters poking through the back of
our legs, you know, give a nice fruit bowl. Yeah, or
we could just show our asses. Okay, So it's decided. When the
clock hits eight thirty five, we all stand upon our desks, pulled down
our pants, and you'll kiss my ass together. We are strong. Yeah,
Hey, Timmy might need some help pulling his pants down. We got
you covered, Timmy. Oh love that that's very sweet. I love that
they're like, you know, it also a nose, but they've got his
back. You know. Timmy's one of the kids all the adults are like,
oh, you don't treat them differently, and the kid's like, no,
fuck, it's just Timmy. It's cool. He's one of the boys.
He's gonna be fruit bowling with the wrist. But they are into the
new room and it's it's weird. How you know, when you're at school
and go into a classroom that's not yours, you feel like, yeah,
the graveyard, It's like, I'm not supposed to be in here. It's
weird. I don't know this turf, this terrain. Yeah. How long
did it take you to get settled? It takes me at least a couple
of weeks, I reckon. I couldn't get settled easily. Yeah, a
couple of weeks, maybe two weeks. What about a new house for you,
I mean, you haven't moved for a long time, But that's true,
not that long. I find when I go to a hotel or something,
I spent like an hour, just like getting used to the place.
I know where the pool is, I know where the gym is, there's
the cafe. We had our new seat at the football this week. Oh
yeah, and it's the first time we've moved in years, right, go
cats? And I was just like, first, where's the toilet, where's
the canteen? I'm like cool, I'm familiar with my surroundings. Now,
I'm comfortable. I have seen that at Coadinia Park, Akay Gmhbat, gm
HbA Stadium, current rest. Yes, we go through so many sponsors,
but I think smash Bill Burgers have got like a oh yes, yeah,
so you can get a delightful burger there. But also chinchin the restaurants got
a little pop up there as well. Oh well you could feast them.
Yeah, if you've got on the footage. I said, loads like if
the games of this calib we might actually have to go rather than just sort
of, you know, sit on the couch and enjoy a glass of wine,
don't actually go to the go down to KP. I'm a good friend,
I say good friends. I've I know the people that run smash Field
and I love the gentlemen. I feel we should spons the pod up front
of the pot would be smashing these smash Field Burgers on this podcast. We
would actually eat them on camera, That's all we would do. I would
say smash for would you get smash for? Like not tattooed on your head,
But would you wear a stick? Let's let's not get ahead of it.
It's just a Burger brandan how much money would you have to be paid
to get a tattoo on your neck or your face for a business sponsorship?
Like Jen would it? Would it be an option for you? It would
be six figures, six figures, So that's that's a million, right,
that's a million? Sorry, six zeros is what I mean? So like
a billion, A million, a million, Okay. I wouldn't do it
for anything less than one hundred million dollars a tattoo on my face for life
and particular if it's a brand. Yeah, I McDonald's came to you said
we want to get mcnald's had it on your forehead. How much McDonald's watching,
Yeah, McDonald's are you watching? Where would it be? What would
it would it be? The Golden Archers, I'd consider it for the right
amount of money. Macus is still making money, hand over fist. Yeah,
you're gonna have to it's it's gonna be. It's gonna have a lot
of zero. It's going to be a big ass check. Let's make it
happen. Let's making it happen, except let's not because those are like,
you fucking idiot. Hmm, this is that's a really interesting thought experiment though,
Yeah, we'll see, we'll come back to it. Having said that,
smash Bill Delicious become a friend of the pod really not that's good smashing
m that's good chicken sandwich. But they're not a fan of the new room
foreign language, which is the cursive. And yeah, the new teacher arrives
and as Kenny says, he I think tits are fucking huge, says and
a thirty five comes and Cartman is the only one that stands up and says,
kiss my ass. And I felt sorry for him. I was like,
oh you weak ares loses yeah weak, yeah, yeah, yeah that
she tells him or tells him to write a thousand word essay and why did
you have to disrupt this class? Why do you feel they need to have
to do that? And then after the class kids will complain what a bitch
and Tweaky hates the cursive and the fractions. That's the thing. When you
start learning fractions, you know, your innocence is guys, like, I've
actually learned genuine math. Shit. Now yeah, it's like you're actually making
me use my brain to solve math problems as opposed to sitting there on the
on the car. But going seventh plus three is more simplest. Three is
dupe less. Do is for yeah, doing your timetables, and because that's
how I learned multiplication. You know how we did it. My mum put
the times table like calendar thing. I'm back of the toilet door, so
every time I went to the toilet, I'd just be looking at times tables
the whole time. So I know I'm amazing with maths. After like twelve
times, yeah, anything after twelve fucked beyond that, that's when you put
your pants. But I was really good at maths as a kid, and
I find Allio he loves his footy. He's getting better at maths because he's
working out the scores. Okay, so three goal that's three sixers and four
misses is four points and he's working at the score and I'm like, this
is actually teaching something very good. Yeah, these chicken golls a kisses,
he's getting passionate, my little man. What are the cats in the cradle
silver spoon? But I think they've lost their innocence And this is what cartman
sings his third grade song and I just love it nash Meadow Days of Teddy
Bear Mass Remember how used to be in the third Creek. We used to
laugh and play and cherish each day in the third grade, we learned wondrous
things from our teacher's sons. Sitting on marshmallow deaths with Teddy best maths.
The word seemed that ah makes sense, but that sense seems just manly thing.
After third the third when we used to ride with crayons, we would
make sprinkley pictures with glitter and glue. We had warm cookies and hot full
of love, and it wasn't a care in the well. For me,
for you is not a thing. Just to go back, bring me to
your Yeah. I always love it when they have it at the end,
emotion to sing any move, I can't do it. Yes, there's one
part where Cartman says for you Yeah. But they said in the commentary Tray
and Matt that they just love how Cartman never seems to be happy with where
he is. He always wants to be somewhere else, and he's always a
song about it. But yeah Cartman is the start of the show. And
Yeah, Tray singing in Cartman's voice is always a winner in my opinion.
Yes, I just burst out crying. That was just the perfect button to
that song. Just that just sums it up. You just they're sad.
They want to go back to the greater suggest time travel. I mean that
logic fits are for kids in fourth grade making time. It makes sense.
Why not? It is about the time that I'm reminded of one of my
mottos in life. You can't rewrite the past, so write the future.
There we go, there we get that tatted on your forehead and wisdom.
But Kyle suggests the two nerds that live next door to him. But he
says live next door, but one of them clearly doesn't live there. Maybe
he says that hang out in the basement next door. I don't know.
But these guys are based on the people who work on the show, so
they sat it in the commentary. Two geeks based on the two systems guys
Sean and JJ their names are, they said the commentary. I'm sure they
love being immortalized in this fashion. Yes, I mean, wouldn't you that's
true? I mean, yeah, but they clearly love their star trek.
Well. Having said that, I'm now looking at the four finger discount banner.
Well that used to be on Facebook. Yes, yes, the caricature
of me being see Captain Beard and Beanie You're Dad by the wharf. I'm
just envisioning u and being like season two of The Wire down on the docks.
We used to make things in this country. But the nerds here,
all of their science is based on Star Trek theories, the Spock theory and
the command of data theory and things like that. Yeah, just I was
ever read of Star Trek. I'm going to get into it. We're gonna
be starting a pilot podcast soon and one of the past is going to be
Star Trek. Is it going to be the actual pilot or I'm gonna I
think we should do all of them. The one that always brings to mind
for me is the card the next Generation. That's the one. It seems
to be the most renowned. For someone who's not a Star Trek fan,
we happy to call out. Yeah, big response was there. There was
a big risk over a hundred different shows and me already been pitched to us
MO. Yeah, yeah, I definitely think that the Next Generation should be
one of them, one hundred percent one of the first ones. I think
we're gonna throw a polot. I think we're gonna pick like four. We're
gonna carry down to four, maybe one for me. Genre let the patients
decide what would be the pilot episode of the pilot podcast. Oh my gosh,
what do you think that's a that's a very good idea. Yes,
but yeah, so they're going to be using Timmy's electric wheelchair to try and
create had this time machine and yeah, we eventually works, we find it.
They don't think it's gonna work, but they know they use it.
Mackie then tells Chef about Miss chokes On Dix. Honkers. I've never heard
him called honkers before hooters. We have definitely heard who not honkers. Honkers.
It's I don't think it's a very nice term. It doesn't make him
sound very nice. I mean they're trying to say they're not nice here,
But yes, honkers, I mean Hong Kong. I think I think that's
says that I've never done that. I think i'll ever do that. Invaulted
Nikola went Hong Kong. I think I'll probably be sleeping on the front yard.
I imagine you'd be sleeping on the front yard in another city, maybe
even another country. And when I say a front yard, I mean like
maybe six feet under. Yes, exactly, Yes, I'll be under the
city. So chef Chef thinks, who does that big? That's okay?
And then he sees them and oh my, oh call the doctor. She
wants to talk to Garrison though piano, Oh, that that can't happen.
No one seen him since the last school year. You watched this. It
feels like a season premiere, doesn't it, even though it's mid season.
It feels like, ah so has a year transpired between the last episode and
this one? Just summer vacation some of vok Yeah, okay, some vacations,
but they don't really make that because the third grade didn't end in the
last episode. Did It was just the church and stuff, I believe.
So yeah, what I'm thinking is, I'm trying to recall if the fourth
grade episodes of Oh wait so probably add in July twenty July two thousand.
This didn't aird to November two thousand, so I guess there was a break
there was they were on hiatus. Yes, they were on hiatus, Okay,
but I'm trying to record there are episodes of south Park that have new
opening credits, and that's very much. This is the first one. Yeah,
we didn't talk about the new credits. I didn't see the new credits,
not not in the in the one that I watched, because you parated.
If you watch it on Paramount Plast Friends of the Pod, you get
the golden it's not the updated. Yeah. Yeah, it's three D characters
and things like that and like clips from movies, and yeah, it's much
more. Was the one that ends with the guy going through the flames.
Yeah, and he's holding like a Guny somersaults through like a pane of glass
or something. Yet Oh so you missed that? Oh man, God,
Yeah, so we got the new intro. So it was basically it felt
fresh and felt new, and yeah, I think that it does. It
did feel like a new show, don't you think it felt I don't think
it was quite as funny as episodes we've had recently. I like to the
Garrison Store, but it felt it felt like a reset episode as opposed to
episode full of jokes A playsetter. Yes, yes, but still at the
end of us sort of went I'm not too sure about miss jokes on Dick.
Hopefully she gets a funnier but yeah. So basically they're saying that you
you never be able to find Garrison. He's he's hidden somewhere. And then
we get Miss chokes On Dick, her nipples hanging at the bottom of a
shirt, and I was like, oh oh my. But they're now in
class and they explained they're going to get Timmy. The Norse explained were gonna
get to set off ten feet that way and needs a magnetic vibrations. She
created a wormhole. You're four point two seconds to go in there and you'll
end up at the same spot, but just a year ago an encampment.
She enters a coming suck our buzz. Oh, he's a biggy game.
She asked for the homework. I love when he's cocky. So he's like,
haha charade, you are yeah again and I love that. Gentlemen,
we didn't do our homework. Miss makes me sick. We didn't feel like
it. It's chokes On Dick and you were all going to have to tention
haha, saraed you are teacher. I'm afraid we have different plans, gentlemen.
Primary fusion initiated like your credit game active ha, what are you doing.
We're going back in TWN to the third grade. Goodbye teacher. Perhaps
we just see you in another year. Sah, I ain't think it would
work me. There's a lot of parodies in this, so we had Star
Trek parodies, we had Star Wars parties and the speed Speed in a wheel
chair. Yeah yeah. It took me a while to get that. I
was like, ah, five miles. Yeah, plus the woman who winds
up riding on the wheelchairs. You're not quite Sandra Bullock, but I think
she made to be Santra Bully. I didn't get that at all. It
feels like she's got Sandra Bullock's haircut from Speed. I know that's very specific,
but she was never hitchhiking. She didn't know. That's true. She
shouldn't run Rubber Chi Mama and Cano's face either, man. That's something that
Speed was lacking. Otherwise, five Stars should watched Speed. I rewatched it
about three months ago. Loved it. It's out on four K. Might
get it on four K okay from Disney plass he was watching four Candy.
I could do it there or could I own like physical media from saying it?
Maybe JB friend of the Pod get that it again. I am all
that physical media these days, I've noticed. Yeah, yeah, that's a
dying art. I mean to keep it alive. Yes, indeed, because
well, you know, special fits. Maybe there are good companies out there
that are giving you all the goodies when they you know, provide you with
a not just the movie. Like we did. Recently. We received a
very nice package from our friends, legitimate friends of the Pod, Umbrella Entertainment.
Do you get you got the Super Mario ma brick It's over there somewhere,
it was here. It's this giant brick box. It basically it's got
a book, it's got art, it's got the four K, it's got
a Blu ray, it's got a slipcase. And I'm going to be getting
the Masters of the Universe one coming as well. It's basically Umbrella Entertainment are
a distributed here in Australia that cult films and go worldwide. Yeah yeah,
but a lot of Australian films in cult films. It never really got a
physical release of the Vision Ninja Turtles film got the release for Umbrella and yeah,
Ari comes on the fourthing of Discamp Pod maybe this week, maybe next
week, we've we're recorded already, have we released in due time? And
we review Home a Bad Man? We do, Indeed, Zach and I
have to edit out all the parts room going. It's ninety minutes of Can
I have a jappy? Yeah? Guy being a real fawning simp. But
I received a really great of the hitcher wonderful. It's too good to open
one. I was like, I don't want to open this yet. Yeah,
I just want to sort of put it on the mantelpiece and stare out.
I want to put it up on the mantel. Isn't it weird?
Isn't it weird? Though? He sometimes you get things it's like actually figures
and it's like it's got a window box. I can see it. The
box looks great. Yeah, I just want to gaze upon this. I'm
too old to play with it. I'm just want to. He even told
to play little behind You. Well that's true. But I think now that
I've got a kid like Nicholas. My theory is because Ali goes but it's
a toy, and I'm like, you know right, you know what,
mate, You're right. These are just toys. Toys are made for playing,
yes, not for collecting. If the toy story franchise has taught us
anything, it's that how do we get to that? Though? Anyway,
Timmy's out driving down the street five miles an hour. It's the speed parody.
You can't you can't leave, that's correct, Yes, gets the hit
choker. Oh my god, you just tell Trey Love's doing his voice and
you've got less than twenty minutes now until his battery got dice because basically,
if he goes below five miles an hour or gets off the wheelchair, it'll
explode. Oh, dear to Jesus, hang on leading well, being very
careful. That wheelchair is set to explode. It's okay, just stay calm
and keep the speed above five. Good. What's the wheelchair's battery power out?
Less than twenty minutes? Oh no, what have we got? But
Victoria, now she told the brothers. Do you think there's two fold that
they're trying to work out here? Can we tell her to put a bra
on? Yes? But she doesn't. Demands to see Garrison and they explain
that you know, he was a closet homosexual who hated gay people. And
then he's accused of listening sex with the young Boy, and then his novel
won the Gay Bullets a prize, Yes, for best homoerotic novel since Huck
Weary Thin. And now he's gone to live in the mountains and cold nights.
You can still here. I'm not gay, yes, And they have
you looked for him? No, we haven't looked for him. So she
says, I'm going to go find him, even if I have to climb
up and up and up, and they beg her to stop and don't want
to see no nips lips. Then we get the news report of the Nerds
explaining what this device is, and Timmy says words here he does, yes,
help me, help me, please, help me, please help me.
When he says words, I'm like, oh, he's actually scared,
poor Timmy. But they argue over the seventy two seventy three Star Trek episodes.
Yes, this is where it all comes into the whole, the pilot,
so I looked it up right. So the pilot episode was filmed.
It's called the Cage, and then there was an episode where it was a
second episode which aired as the third episode of the Yeries. So the film
two pilots, and they pitched it as a pilot the film two episodes as
one hour pilot. It didn't get was this with Shatner though Pike, Yeah,
played by another guy played by Jeffrey Hunter, Yes, and didn't get
very well received. So they because it didn't have that Shatner magic exactly.
But they use snippets from one of the episodes, the cage. I believe
it was in in a later episode, which is the Menagerie episode. So
that's where it all comes into it. But apparently there was seventy nine episodes
of the original. I don't know why they had seventy two to seventy three.
Maybe they just want to put their own spin on it. Yeah,
but there was. There's eighty episodes, but some say seventy nine, some
say eighty, depending on how you see the pilot episode. It's interest one
of the discussions that will live on forever. I think with star Trek Haunds
right as most things do. With start, what's the most nerdiest argumental debate
you've had with a with a fellow movie nerd. Do you think, oh,
you got to after about five minutes and you going, what are we
doing? Why? Why is this important to us? Might be about the
end of the thing? Okay, where it's like, are they both things?
Are they both human? Is one of them to think? You know
you can when he talks. You know it's meant to be cool. But
you can't see his breath. That means he's a thing. Why why are
we doing this? I remember having many debates about that the Matrix trilogy at
school because Matrix was huge when I was in high school. And then we
spent the entire lunch time. We get to the end and go, what
are we doing? Why don't we go outside and play? Why were we
talking about the Matrix? But first Bob was great, Oh absolutely, And
it was just it was just endless conversations. You could be spawned from that
film. Is this real? Is this the Matrix? This steak that I'm
eating? Really, why don't you just stay in the Matrix and have a
nice steak? Would you stay in the Matrix? Yes? Yeah, wouldn't
give out? Never, no no questions asked? The pill you shove it
up your ass. Cipher is the unsung hero of that of that movie.
He's very relatable, very real until he starts killing people. Well that's true.
He's desired to want to live in the Matrix. That's the very relatable
aspect of Otherwise, what are you doing? You're eating like cold porridge on
a shitty ship, running away from robots forever, running away from robots for
the rest of your days, and pining for Trinity aka carry on Moss and
just not getting where then Kean comes and cuts your lunch. They didn't make
it very appealing to that the real world in the Matrix You. No,
they didn't know. Although the matrix was made design and the second one is
like cool primitive rave, but it's almost like they the matrixs is real and
those who the robots created its movie to go see much better than matrix O
go looking for this place. I imagine you have people who were like,
oh, no, mobvious, we're all for your freedom humanity campaign and all
that kind of stuff. I might get to go jacking the matrix for like
half an hour, have some fun, have some fun. Yeah, that's
that's what I'd be doing. Oh, actually no, I will just be
there all the time. I do remember. It combines my two favorite things.
I've just a life of absolute sloth and indolence in being a cell and
but also zero responsibilities. Pretty much it feels like you if you're in the
real world, I'm just going to go into measure. Just fuck up.
Some people, fuck up, some things just come back. Just watch the
watching insanity and so after I fucking But the thing is, I still remember
watching that movie when he goes he's the one that was like a moment.
It felt very special to me when I was like ten, Well, of
course, but miss chokes on dick. She is climbing mountain with the cats
now following her. Apparently the cat's eventually suck on her teats at some point.
I know they want drink milk. That's what they said in the commentary.
But she finds Garrison, who's just become a hermit, much like Yoda.
But Yoder's not. He's not very away. He's just a herbit,
isn't he? He is? And this is pre Lord of the Rings as
well, because I was sort of like it was just yeah, yeah,
the doing a bit of oh, they're doing a bit of Golum excepted yeah,
not Golum so but Golin would have been described, would have been in
the books. Absolutely, I don't think this was a lot of it is
maybe no, I think it's just a general hermit. Okay, I forgot
to mention that Timmy dactually travels three time, actually sixs. I just love
the stunt signs are like, oh shit, poor Timmy, Now where's he
going? Where is he? And Kenny gets killed as well, which I
thought was horrifying. Oh scraping, Yeah, like the sound of him just
getting scraped on the ground, Like that's a really bad way to go,
man, just not good. But the kids then ask the nerds for another
machine because they, you know, they want to go back in time as
well, because this one worked. And unfortunately Pizza faces taking all this stuff
and he's gone back to his mum's place because they're he there's a there's a
mistake here. I will get to it about the whole argument of the seventy
two seventy three between the two that they fucked up the continuity of what they're
saying here. But they think, oh fucking now, Timmy's in the third
grade, and he says to it, because he says to them, Giga
Pizza face, if you can make him admit that, I'm right, I'll
make you another machine. Poor Timmy though he's not in the third grade,
is isy He's been chased by triceotops. That's correct, Yes, at a
very very slow speed. This checks on diggers. Now training, you're gonna
count the profane command with an idle thread, you must have distinguished it with
a vogus. When they say suck my balls, you say present, which
is pretty wise. It's the foundation of jiu JITs. You can't show that
you're fearing the kids in any way. You're gonna have the upper handed show
note just show men with me. It's like I'm all took. Look,
you can't counter a profane command with an idle threat. You must extinguish it
with a vulgar suggestion. When a child says suck my balls, you say
present them. Ooh, now, let's try it again, suck my balls,
present them. Good, very good. You're ready to move on to
the next level, But I warn you we will now be diving deep into
your own sagging. These children know what's scares, and so we too must
face those demons. I'm ready. I'm not afraid. You will be,
you will be, you will be. Then the kids arrive at Pizzaface's mum's
house, and the kids said, want you just a green to get over?
And we can have a time like you guys could change side. You've
built a time machine. What is your problem? You know? And I
guess this is kind of like a jabb at Nerds to say these guys have
the ability to travel back in time, but the fact that they can't agree.
They hung up on this on these triviality. Yes, but he says
here that he doesn't want to live in a world of seventy two original Star
Trek episodes, right, I don't think so. Yeah, he was the
one that was saying there's seventy two. He thinks there's seventy three. And
it's like, yeah, but you said that before you said that, And
then he's like, I live it a well with seventy two. I don't
think so. And I'm like, what I forget who said seventy two?
Is it meant to be a jab at them? Who not even know what
that argument anymore? I think it's just a mistake. I think it might
just be a fuck up up. Yes, And then but it's explained.
Yeah. The funny thing is that the manager was actually a part of the
actually split it up, like Butters actually know that ship is Butter's now the
new Kenny but he actually speak No, I don't think so. I think
so. No. I think they're just adding another spice of the overall South
Park met Yeah, okay, but they tell him to if you can go
back, you can ask to create how many episodes they were? Well,
shit, Jesus chrusty, right, well played. Then Garrison introduces the Tree
of Insight, which was that what it's called, and start was I don't
think it has the name, and it's just that weird area with the cutting
off the head of Vader and looks. That was the scariest part of the
movie for me when I was a kid, I was like, what is
this was pretty creepy. It's a scary movie. Yeah for kids, sure,
great movie. That's that's the best Star Wars movie of all time.
Right, It's hard to go past the first one. The first one.
It's a pretty great fucking sequel. I think if he wanted to put your
nerd critical hat on, you'd probably go impare is actually a bit of made
movie. But ye was the spark that lights the fire. It's hard to
go past the first one, I guess, yeah. But she goes in
and finds nothing. She's like, I alone do have the strength to reach
the kids. No, she realized doesn't need any help. Then Garrison goes
you're looking for it and finds he's gay. Sign it. You aren't real,
you can't be. It is me, your darkest fear, your gay
self incarnate. What do you want? I want you to not fight me
anymore, to accept me once and for all. Why don't you see all
these years, your pain, your confusion, it comes from one place,
your denial of who you are, of who we are. But I'm not
gay. Everyone just thinks I am. Oh, stop it. What about
the time you looked at Counselor Mackie's painis in the men's locker room. I
was just comparing size for seven minutes. Ah. And what about the time
you masturbated to the men's one hundred meters swimming relay at the Olympics. I
was beating off to the checks. There were no checks. Oh damn,
you spirit haunt me. No longer. Admit it. No, you have
to stop lying to yourself and get it all right. All right, I
admit it. I'm gay. I'm gay. I'm gay. I am gay.
Hear that, everyone, I'm gay. I'm gay. I'm gay,
And it feels good. Good on them for you know, it's rather insightful
stuff maybe that you wouldn't necessarily expect from South Park. I do expect it
now. Actually, people who think South Park's just crude and crude humor,
watch this kind of shit. It's it's genuine. It's like people who are
in the closet, No, come out, be yourself. You'll feel so
much better. It's a positive message, it really is. And the way
and you're right mean, South Park does constantly provide affirmation and confirmation and that
kind of thing. But I think a lot of people tend to go,
oh, South Bucks, that show with the sweary kids, and that's so
much more than that. And that's the hook that gets you in the door.
That's the that's the Carnie Barker going yeah, come on in, and
then once you're in, it's like, oh wait a minute, life lessons
and the kids. I didn't really swear that much anymore. It's that that's
what. Like I said, this got you in the door. But now
it's like genuine funny stories. But but the serious character development here with mister
mister Garrison, because these gays, I said, you look at Mackey Penis
is seven minutes, he jerked off to the men's I think it's a hundred
bed of freestyle team or whatever. There were no chicks. Damn your spirit
holt me no longer. And then he yells I'm gay and he's happy and
he owns it and I'm gay and it feels good. I thought, what
a nice moment. I'm gay, it feels good. Yeah, it'd be
nice if you know, you had kids who were maybe wondering about their sexuality
or pondering where they fit into the bigger pictures, like, yeah, I'm
me and it feels good. Yep. This chokes on. Dick then arrives
and she walks in all there again with their goggles on, with the with
the nerds, the cats are there with and the men of Device there with
a microwave and a duck, and the nerds then argue with the Battlestar Galactica
two parter is it a is it one episode? Or is it not?
Then Cartman says, sack my balls, present them what that man, that's
what. That's what. I love that she followed up there with with mount
It's like, oh mad, But it's good that Cartman recognizes that always got
an enemy, an enemy worth fighting, Yes, to share, a teacher
to share. But life isn't about going back. And there's times in your
life where we wish we could relive, but you know we've already lived them
perfectly. Why live them again? A fun game is a game that gets
harder as it goes on, and so it is with life. I thought,
yep, is really another nice positive message throwing about it, throwing the
matters thick and fast. Yes, because regularly for me we look back and
go, I'll be nice to be able to do that again and feel that
feeling again. But I guess you know it is the past. Let it
be there, worry about where you can control. That is the future.
And I also get the feeling with a very positive memory from your past.
You have spent a lot of time polishing it, so it probably wasn't even
quite as good as you made it out to be. It was, Yeah,
it was probably about how and you're putting it up to about how.
Why do we have such a love for nostalgia? And is it because we
had when we were kids We had no responsibilities and it was just easier.
That's very much it. Yeah, I think so, just go home from
school. What snacks am I going to eat? What am I watching?
What video game I'm playing? Noses in the world. Yeah, it's like,
Yes, today when I was trying to get in touch with Facebook on
live chat with him and it's like, I want to kick the football.
I'm like, Elliott, I know you're five and I love you to death,
but you need to unsay. This is very important. But in his
world, all he wanted to do was kick the football. And I get
it. Oh yeah, absolutely. At the same time, he doesn't pick
this up, it's not going to be no football. You'll be kicking around
on water a piece of paper exactly. They realized that the third grade wasn't
so great. They all yell at Cartman for it, and they continue on,
and then Timmy arrives and he's he's been to on the what was the
plane that dropped the automy Bombay, Yes he's got that. He's got a
pirate hat. Yes, he's he's seen some ship. Hopefully it'll be nice
if we get to see some of the ship that he saw. I don't
think it's going to happen, but this was a nice little side gag anyway,
and a nice way to wrap up the episode. Yeah, so Garrison
enters the the office and announces he's gay. Gay is a gymnast on sure
leave, they'll congratulating him. He's like, he feels like you can start
new now. He wants to be the third teacher. I'm sorry, we
don't hire gay people. And they live and I was like, what was
what was with the last line? Now, I'm sorry we don't hire gay
people? Does he actually? I imagine there were some discriminatory hiring practice.
Are they just taking the piss when they say though, No, I don't
think they are. I think there were some states in the US that would
discriminate against I mean just principal victory. In this episode, though, is
she saying to Garrison, I know you're not get injured back because you're gay.
Is that Cannon saying oh no, don't or she meant this? Is
she saying, I don't think. I don't think they're taking the piss.
I think just like, oh, look, it's wonderful that you've found yourself
and you know you're confident who you are. We're not going to hire you.
It's because they had laughed at the end. I wasn't sure what they
were going for they just left it. No, I think they Pane would
have gone, ah, No, they're laughing. I think they're laughing at
Garrison being so naive that, Okay, we're going to hire a gay teacher.
Don't think that's happening. Okay, that's what I think. Any But
well, I know he just come back in season six. Apparently comes back
in the Simpsons disit episode. Oh okay, yeah, I'm looking forward to
that. Yes, I'm going to missmissic Garrison. I am going to two
whole season. We're gonna have no Garrison. I'm sure he'll be on the
show, but he won't be the teacher anymore. Yeah, because I think
Garrison's top two characters with me on the show now, I think like Garrison
is Garrison and Cartman. They're the two funniest characters, right. I certainly
enjoyed miss Garrison. You're right when you need standing Kyl and Ken, you
need all those guys off. But the story drivers, I think I just
enjoy whatever Garrison's on the TV. I enjoy it. I think of my
favorite members of the podcast so far, Garrison and Cartman seem to be the
main ones. True. Yeah, oh, absolutely, yeah, but a
little bit about us I get back to. I think it's like weight Gain
four thousand or beefcake, whatever it is, when he's like, come on
you little bit. Anyway, So that is our review of fourth Grade.
I enjoyed reviewing it more than I did watching it. I think I think
watching this I went, yeah, exactly. I think I watched it and
went, I'm not sure his checks on Dick yet. I think I was
sort of left going, we'll have to wait and see it. Yeah.
Absolutely. I wonder though, if you when you're making this episode, because
there's been two seasons. As part of the two seasons Transport before he comes
back, if you're making this episode, do you know course correct and go
ah fuck, Garrison's actually a lot funnier chokes on Dick. But I guess
you've committed to it. Yeah, we've got a vision. We've got to
stick to it. Yeah. Anyway, But that is, as I said
our review of fourth Grade. The next episode of Going Down the South,
like, we shall be reviewing Trapper Keeper, a Man from the Future once
Cartman's new trapper Keeper. Meanwhile, mister Garrison's kindergarten class's kindergarten teacher ever we
go kindergarten class holds an election for class president with confusing results in the voting.
