Hello everyone, and welcome to the Movie Night season two recap episode featuring Moa
Robert M. Lamb, the writer of Movie Night and one of the stars
as Josh. But I am welcoming a very special guest who's really the voice
over behind season two. It's his story this season. Brad himself, Brian
Messick is here. Hello, everybody. How's it going, man, I'm
doing good. Yeah, doing good. You're doing good. Good, Happy
to be here Movie Night. Now that there's like it's you know, it's
Movie Nights. It's just a second, you know, it's it's we'll go
through. I like doing it. Well. It's funny because like the first
season recap, like after the season, it was kind of still like I
didn't hear much about it, like people didn't really comment. But now every
once in a while, like when we do a free shirt giveaway or something
on Facebook, like we'll I always post something like, hey, let us
know your favorite show, maybe we'll enter you in a drawing for a free
shirt. And I had a few people say Movie Night's exciting, and I'm
like, that's interesting, that's my show. Yeah, well for season two
season yeah, well, I mean I steal the show. I mean,
here's the thing here. I will say somebody, somebody told me that they
liked Cooper in the show. But Cooper's kind of like the goofy one whatever,
and uh I said that writing for Cooper and writing for Brad were my
two favorites. Yeah. Well it's kind of just like a jerk a lot
of times, so it's like easy to write for that. I mean,
I know you wrote the part for me, right, So I will say
before we get into the individual episodes with season one, as when I started
it, I wasn't really I mean I kind of picked people that I thought
would like kind of fit into it. But as I wrote more, I
kind of did adjusted to their personality. Is once I kind of got it
a lot easier to be consistent. Yeah, it's a real character. And
not to say that you're an asshole or anything. No, not at all,
not at all, never not me, but I do I will say
that that's not you know, he's not an asshole. He's not you know,
he's just a dude trying to figure himself out like everybody else. Rob,
I know, I know I write him as like a just like more
of like a sarcastic jerk. But he's not like, like these are his
friends. Yeah, so it's not like a big deal, you know what
I mean, Like he's kind of just being like, you know, especially
with certain characters. I will say that there is one difference though, and
we won't go super into because I don't want to get too political by making
you like a conservative in the show. Yeah, which not not a full
on conservative, but like, I just I don't know why. I don't
know, that's not you, that's not you, but I just kind of
feel to say those words. But it's actually funny. I think in one
of the episodes of this last season, I kind of made it not so
much that you're a conservative, just that you like like an independent thinker.
Yeah, but you just you always do like you kind of do boat red.
Yeah, yeah, it's your whole thing. But I also did that
because I did always want Kelly to be kind of like this bleeding heart liberal
and I didn't want to have everybody be liberals. So I figured having that
clash, when you guys already hurt each other, it has to be it
just kind of works. Yeah, and it's fine. I mean, I
I enjoy the banter. I enjoy the way that you know, we go
back and forth and when reading against you, you know, there's a flow
that gets established that doesn't always get established in other like six pression smaller parts
and stuff, you know, and for sure, you know, it's kind
of just trying to plug in these um bits. But yeah, with this
one, it's like, I don't know we did we did the don't what
is that episode? Um? The which one? I have the list of
episodes? Yeah, don't waste my time? Oh? Um, City Slickers
one that was season one though, yea, yeah, in season one.
I was gonna say, and that's like, I don't remember how long ago
we did that. It's been a while. Yeah, it's been a while.
Um, But that one I always liked. I listened to that one
sometimes just because I like the you're talking about the music. I think I
think that's the one where yeah, yeah, the movie scenes, you know,
and I just feel like, you know, the flow and that is
so good and I was It's just I don't know, I really love it
and I love like listening to it and like having other people here. That
one, because I do like that episode. There's those big, chunky,
you know, like monologue kind of thing you describing like you put the music
in this, and yeah fit this and all that kind of stuff. And
that was because the city slickers describing the ice cream and like the perfect ice
cream for a dinner or whatever, for anything, perfect anything. Yeah,
so I thought that was cool. Well, that's the thing with Movie Night
is it's so dialogue heavy that in fact, season one, when I wrote
episodes, I wrote them kind of how I wrote other shows that we do
here at seven Lamb, like all the other like horror and sci fi.
I wrote it like that, So they were only like twenty pages long,
right, But then I realized it's all dialogue, so it would actually shorten
it because there wasn't a lot of action going on. So I ended up
having to write longer episode. So a lot of these episodes for season two
were like forty five pages, but they still came out to about a half
an hour. Yeah, just all that back and forth. Yeah, there's
a lot of and then a lot of times it's quick dialogue, so it's
like yeah, and dialogue and stuff. And actually I've been toying with even
making it a little bit quicker and maybe season three actually having them be a
little bit more just like constantly. I just want them to constantly be over
I kind of kind of liking it to uh like maybe like Veep or something
where they're just constantly talking over each other, ridiculing each other stuff like that.
So I think that that's kind of like a cool dynamic with all the
characters. But I still feel like I'm exploring some of the characters too,
Like I haven't really fleshed him out fully yet. Not Brad kind of Brad,
yeah, I mean Brad. We kind of think Brad. Yeah,
Brad's got a lot, but Josh, Josh is more like me. I
mean just you know, like that's who I based him off of, like
later on, but I don't always share the same viewpoints as they can.
Yeah, you didn't understand, but no, I mean it's um, it's
that that snappiness that definitely keeps the flow of the episodes going. But I
mean it's everything is in that dialogue, everything the whole. I mean,
that's it's all there is to it. So it's like you have to it's
funny, it's witty, and it goes you know, up and down and
then switches directions and well that's why going online then always ends up watching a
movie they always end up question. That's a hard part though, it's kind
of tying in whatever there. Sometimes it's like so like I'll go through really
quick, just like the different episodes we did for season two really recap though
with season one the movies they watched where Brad picked Diner that was the first
episode, Josh picked The Big Lebowski, Anderson high Noon, Daisy City Slickers,
Cooper, The Happening, and Kelly Five Hundred Days of Summer. The
reason why I mentioned that is because Cooper a lot A lot of these are
like older movies too, because I'm a fan of older movies. But with
like The Happening, I always wanted to pick a crappier movie for when Coop
Cooper because Cooper always a taste, yeah, bad taste of movies. And
if you liked it Happening, I'm sorry. Happening was this I was the
one with the plants, yeah, attacking people. Yeah. But I also
had like one of the most brutal endings of any movie I've ever seen.
Isn't that the one where you side one? Yeah, where they all start
killing Yeah? Yeah, dude, that like the whole movie or like what
but they're running away from wind. Though, Yeah, that's weird. I
like that South Park episode when global Warming is coming and they're like global warming
and then the one guy like falls on the street and he's like, I
just like rolling around. So it was like, yeah, that was weird.
I mean again, if you liked his bird box and everybody loved that,
did you like bird Box? I thought it was all right. It
was all right. I mean I didn't think it was anything particular. I
don't know why it blew up because it was on Netflix and it was people
bored is Sandra Bullock and Netflix movie? And it was intense and you know,
social media now they can blow up anything they want. I know,
but it was just weird that that one like blew up. And then I
watched it to me, besides the Sandra Bullock being in it, and there
are some other actors time Alca Bitch and stuff, but it still felt like
almost like a TV movie. Yeah, it wasn't. It felt very special
is Yeah? And now did she get down that river blindfold? For real?
Dude? There was like rapids, they're dead, they had never survived.
It's like Sandra Bullock in Gravity did she survive or is that, you
know, a dream or whatever, dream or whatever exactly. Yeah, she's
dead. They're all dead. They're all dead. They're all dead. Every
movie you love, they're really just they're just really dead people. It's all
a dream. It's all like that season three of Dallas where it's just all
a dream. I think that is a reference. Yeah, that's all right.
So season two, because season one was all Josh's voiceover, like it
was like basically season one's arc is basically just Josh trying to get with that
girl CALLI. Then at the very end he did just Callie because he doesn't
like movies. That was kind of like the joke. Season two is Brad
just trying to get that job at film Strip because he wants to like write
and critique films and stuff. So like that was kind of like the I
never wanted like a really elaborate arc. I just wanted something to kind of
have a threat, to drive this story a little bit. Yeah, just
to have something. And I figured I liked the idea of maybe doing every
season because there's six characters, like six episodes, maybe doing it where every
season a character gets their own time to kind of shine. There's a lot
of times, like Kelly and Anderson kind of get like back, they're kind
of like in the background, a lot of everyone in a while coming.
Yeah, So I had Brad come in and Brad like, the first episode
is His to Choose, which is Midnight in Paris, and basically with this
one, it was it was called the Wrong Decade, and it was just
them talking about how they felt they were born in the wrong decade and what
decade they would rather be born in, which is a topic that I've gunt
talked with people about. People always like to say that, like I'm born
in the wrong decade. Seventies music so much. I'm yeah, I'm always
like, but there's other stuff that just a lot more than movie. Yeah,
you wouldn't have Internet, you wouldn't have this, you wouldn't have like,
there's just a lot which I get in the wrong millennium. But I
just hate when people say that all the time. So I wanted to kind
of address that. Everyone's so bombastic to make these grand statements. Yeah there's
a lot of that now, I like seventies music or that's okay, Yeah
he was born in the wrong decade. Yeah, that's the thing is,
like you could just like the music, you don't have to be born then
to listen to it. There's a lot of advantages to be I mean,
now there's a lot of disadvantages, but you know, but that's like every
you know, every time period. Yeah, I mean that was kind of
the overall message of Woody Allan's movie Midnight in Paris was that Owen Wilson kept
wanting to live in the twenties because he thought it was so great and stuff.
But you know, it turns out like they're still probably there's still people
are still dialing of syphilis and yeah, and then as all about art and
stuff, but there's still there's writers. Now there's art. Like you might
have to sift through more stuff because there's a lot more content, a lot
more content. You got stuff like bird Box on that it's hard to find,
like the good movies, but there's still stuff out there. So uh,
I just wanted to like do that. A lot of the topics or
like the storylines that I get are like from real life, like either I
hear something or or I like it's like a topic of conversation with friends,
and I'm like, oh, that'd be kind of cool, like to kind
of spin it into a story for inspiration somewhere, and I threw in,
Uh, this was the Brad and Kelly kind of conservative liberal they fought a
little bit about like the me Too movement and and stuff not politically relevant.
Yeah, I don't like to get like too political, but I also like,
I don't know, I like kind of like going back and forth.
I like that back and forth dynamic and the whole like me too with her,
like the Woody Allen thing, which Hope is pretty liberal person and she,
I mean we all kind of are, but uh, I hope when
she comes in and she reads for Kelly, a lot of times she's like,
yeah, well I would Brad say that, and like she'll just go
off on a tangent, and I'm like, that's why you're Kelly, just
do it. Yeah, I just just acted out so um. A lot
of times, that little attitude that she'll throw in there is because she agrees
with like Kelly's point of view, right, which works though I mean you
want to that's like with Uh, It's why I like that. Brad is
like such a movie buff and he wants to write for you know what,
critique movies and and old movie reviews and stuff. It's like, because that's
a lot like when we first started hanging out, it was a lot of
stuff that we talked about, you know, was was movies and old movies
and you know, being older whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you
know I am older than you got you and most of the people who do
this. Um, though you wouldn't know if you saw me, that's true.
He had that deep voice since your child, Yeah, he three moment
it was terrifying, Elvis, just like walking into the kitchen. But but
yeah, I mean that that is a big part of like who I am,
you know, and how I grew up, you know, grow up
you know in the eighties and nineties where you know, I actually got to
see a lot of those movies when they were new in the theater, you
know, and we talked about a lot of a lot of that stuff for
a long time. And uh yeah, So even though he's more of a
classic movie, it's it's not just classic. He does allays all kinds well.
And that was the thing as I picked Midnight in Paris for him,
which was like a newer kind of film, but it's still kind of like
a little more artsy classical kind. Yeah, I mean it's Woody Allen and
stuff like that. So I figured, like, you know, he's Brad.
Out of all the characters, I would say probably Brad does have the
best taste in movie. Yeah, but well he has to. He's the
most pretentious. I mean, he is super pretentious and stuff. But I
do have where like most of the people here, Kelly and everybody except for
Cooper all are kind of like they do like good movies and usually pick either
like a little bit older or just like and that's why they're friends. That's
the thing that ties them together, the thread that holds them together, because
I kind of like the idea of like just because you probably are too.
But being like a movie snob sometimes it's oh, absolutely, Like I just
think it's like kind of oh, but I'm I mean, I'm a snob
about everything really, music, movies. I mean, he does mention he's
a snob about music too, and it's really kind of annoying because I really
don't like people who like bad music and basic I mean, hey, but
the exactly. But there are times where you know, all of that has
its place, you know, and and I enjoy it in the right setting
or whatever. But there's plenty of times where I'm just like, you're really
listening to this? Yeah, And then I judge people yea too. I
try to be a little bit like I'm not a super confrontational person, so
I try to be like pretty nice. Like when people are like my favorite
movie is like Pacific rim or something like that, and I'm like, it's
fun. It's fun. That's but it's a fun it's a fun movie.
A great movie, but it's a fun movie to me. It's just like
or you know, whenever somebody just says that they like a certain movie and
I'm just like, Okay, that's fine, Like that's cool. I'll kind
of just leave it at that. But then I hate when they like kind
of dig and want to know more, like did you like it? Did
you? I'm like, do you want my real opinion exactly? And yeah,
I don't have a tendency to be not mean, but I'm not particularly
nice. It's like, I, yeah, but you're just like straightforward.
But I like a lot of like I like a lot of big like oh
yeah, still the movies for the sake of the movie, Like I mean
these like the New Goods, Godzilla movies in that whole universe like I'm enjoying
it. I want to see Kong and Godzilla like I'm but it's it's just
literally something I can just watch that's enjoyable. It's silly and I don't buy
into you know, I could just enjoy it for what it is. But
that's that. Somebody one time was like, uh, they called me like
a snob because I didn't like the newer Star Wars movies and I just we
all know they're trash. And I was just like, I just didn't like
the new ones, and he was like, well, you're just a snob.
You never like Star Wars. I'm like Star Wars the original, It's
like in my top ten movie, just like I love that movie, and
I love the original trilogy and all the universe around it. And then you
get stuff like The Mandalorian. You're like, this is Star Wars can be
excellent. Yeah, but then they yeah, the movies. I don't know
what happened, but it's just one of those things where I'm just like,
yeah, I'm not like a complete snob. I like I like the movies
a shit movie, and I like the Marvel films. I like I love
the Marvel films. I like the whole Marvel universe. I think the way
they put on not everyone's a gem, but even a bad Marvel film is
still better than like a lot of DC movies, like you know what I
mean, or any a lot of DC movie, a lot of movies in
general. Yeah, I mean the Marvel universe. They've just done a great
job of getting you invested in characters and weaving it all together and making it
fun. Yeah you know. And that's the whole point for me. If
you want to see a big blockbuster style movie, you want to be fun.
Yeah, you know, and they're really fun. Yeah, No,
I get, And like that's my whole like aspect of like writing the show,
as I want like all the characters to kind of have that same mentality
where they like a lot of different movies. And maybe maybe Kelly does more
towards like, you know, romantic comedies and he has more of like his
stupid type of goofy movies, but you know, they still like watching movies,
and Cooper will still watch an old movie kind of thing. Uh let's
go to getting educated exactly. He's learning a little bit more. Uh So
episode two I actually went a little I wanted to like mix it up a
little bit. I did like a Mall Rats type of episode where they went
to the mall. Um For me, it was like more of like none
of my friends really go to the mall anymore. It's not like it's been
a long time since I've been to the mall. I mean they went to
go buy stuff for like days, even though they could have just ordered stuff.
Kelly was going to have like help them pick out something for Daisy's birthday,
and then Brad wanted something really expensive so that Daisy would invite him to
the girls games game stuff, which still hasn't happened, which doesn't matter because
well, I will say before we go to the next episode. But um
uh, that one. I didn't have like a lot to do other than
just the mall to like tie it into Mall Rats. But I did,
h there was pres the pretzels was the thing. And then he mentioned sailboat
the pixelated images that you like stare at yah you can see him image that
was in Magic Eye or whatever. Yeah, the Magic Eye books or whatever
that or like posters and stuff. I made a mention of that too,
which was I think he was a sailboat in mal Rats that he saw.
I remember exactly what exactly, but that was like, I love that movie
A long time ago. I think I think Josh bashes Kevin Smith in in
the the episode, just not like a lot. He mentioned something along the
lines of like Kevin Smith and then and you're you're like, why are you
bashing Kevin Smith? But then you bash Adam Sandler, which is a true
bash. Which is a true bash for me though in defensive Adam Sandler and
Happy Madison. Um, I can't watch those old Adam Sandler movies, but
some of the stuff they've been putting out recently though it's terrible. It's maybe
I'm just different. I don't know. I found like, um, the
wrong, the wrong, what's it called? The wrong? Tammy, wrong
miss the wrong Missy. I went into that thinking like this is stupid.
Why am I watching it? It was late one night, I put it
on and I laughed my ass off at that movie and it was maybe the
right moment for the movie or whatever. Yeah, but I ended up enjoying
it, So what can I say? But actually Adam Sandler wasn't even really
in that one. No, he was in it, but it's happy Madison.
Right, So I consider all those the same, and there are still
a few of those movies that hold up and are really funny. There are
like See, I like See I. I never I think I watched like
the first half of the at like at the movie theater when I was working,
right, I didn't see the whole thing. I liked. I liked
Happy Gilmore. That was like one that I really liked, like, but
I can't. It's one I can't go back to, like those old ones,
Like they just don't hold up for me. For someone they did.
I don't mean they didn't hold up at the beginning, but you know they
came out I was like a stoner kid, you know what I mean.
So that's what I'm saying is I think they have the nostalgia factor for people
because people grew up liking them, like the early days. So like that's
why Adam Sandlers still kind of I mean, he still sells, you know
what I mean. That's why Netflix signed with him ytuff and he's got a
huge deal. But to me, it's just simple people out there. I'm
sorry. Yeah, I mean, well that's like Jack and Joe, Like
that's not even a that's been done to death like that story, and then
not only that is him playing two carriacter. I mean, how many movies
have already done that? Like it's it's felt weird and kind of lazy.
I don't know not to say that, like I'm not saying my shows are
oh I mean yeah, I mean but still like an artist, right pretty
much? But uh yeah, so I that that was general hate from me
when you were bashing Adam Sandler. I will say episode three was probably my
favorite of the season, which was the Prosecution rest, which was my twelve
Angry Men episode where I liked this episode because I gave Anderson a little bit
of screen time, like screen time, but a little bit more to say,
because it was more of like him centralized as he explains that he thinks
his cousin is innocent from spending money from an old New Year's Eve party,
and I basically I knew exactly when I was like, oh, I'll do
twelve Angry Men, and I think what I'm gonna do is have it where
he starts off thinking he's the only one who thinks that his cousin's innocent,
and then he just has to change everybody else's mind, which is exactly what
twelve Angry Men was, and that kind of wrote itself as I was writing,
and I introduced Henry, which is now a recurring character that we don't
see, but he just constantly pops up in like Anderson and Kelly's life,
just kind of ruining their life. So I think I'm going to have that
keep running as like a running joke where maybe we never see him, or
maybe one day we will, but he just kind of keeps popping up,
and he's gonna show up, but he's gonna be like a really nice guy.
Yeah, everybody's been talking shit about him all this time, and he's
really just a really nice, quiet guy. And then I'm trying to think,
oh, and then this That episode was also where um Brad found out
that Josh went on a date with this girl Megan, who you went out
with once in the past season and it didn't work out. So like,
out of spite, you say you're going to go out with Callie. That's
right, and in the next episode you really threatened to do it. You
have a date with her, which is The next episode was Angry Birds,
which was a simple one that was just about the birds. The Alfred Hitchcock
movie. Oh yeah, so that's when the birds are attacking Josh, And
that whole thing was just to have, Like, I liked the idea that
later on, at the very end, he gets attacked by the birds and
everything like that, but we never find out why the reason why I did
that. I was like, I was trying to come up with a reason,
like why these birds would attack them, and they all had their theories
and stuff. But I was like, but in the movie the birds they
didn't find out why. So I was like, you know, what,
screw it. They don't find out why. They just don't know, so,
uh, you know. He mentions maybe it's because he cut the bushes
or whatever and there's a nest there or something, but they never find out
why. He just gets his ass handed to him a couple of different birds
and stuff. And then I think this is also Episode four was the one
where Brad had the naked skype call where it wasn't naked. He was wearing
a thong, oh thong, which was interesting that came from two different places.
One, I have a thong, just a random thong, but yeah,
I tell me about it. It was like a gag gift, like
fifteen years ago, but I ended up wearing it. No, I didn't.
So when I was dating this one girl as a joke, me and
my friend bought because we were we were both staying at her house, uh
and with uh my friend's girlfriend, which was her friend at the time too,
So like all four of us were like spend the night our house.
Her parents were gone and stuff. And I think he was around Valentine's Day.
So me and my friend, while our girlfriends were working, We're like,
well, let's set something up. So my friend cooked a meal and
stuff. I went out and bought like rose petals and like the thongs whipped
cream, and we just put whipped cream over like the thong and then like
over our nipples and then it got like we made like little strawberry shortcakes.
And then like when they were getting home, because I drove together. When
they got home, we laid in separate like I was in the one bed,
he was in like the parents' bedroom, and we were just like laying
out on the bed and like whipped cream and rose petals and stuff. And
I've had that thong ever since and it's just been in it. No,
I'm not gonna do that gonna go on the wall. But I saw the
thong when I was like opening my drawer one time, and I'm like,
oh, I'll do that instead of just Brad naked, because I feel like
I feel like the skype naked thing has probably been done before, and it's
like, so I was trying to like kind of mix it up a little
bit. And then uh, and then having it be part of his like
kind of interview process, I felt like kind of mess things up a little
bit more for him. And then uh, what was it? Then then
that yeah, I know, And then I also had it where they he
thought he was fine, but it was because he was actually sitting in front
of a mirror. So I figured like that made it a little a little
different. Uh. And then episode five was the Iraq Attack, which is
Cooper picked eight Legged Freaks as the movie. Um, and there's a spider
in the apartment or whatever and Daisy flipped out and wanted Josh to go kill
it, but it ended up being a huge spider. And then uh,
and actually I think this episode starts off with Brad on his date with Callie
okay, and he kind of gets disappointed because that's the one where you had
that page long monologue of talking about I don't know, you were talking about
like a bunch of different like movies, Yeah, a bunch of different movies.
I think it was about the Marvel films though, too. You were
talking about how Marvel kind of fixed yeah and had like a good run and
everything. But you kind of talk about you realize that she's just glossing over
yeah, and I think she mentions like TV shows instead, and then you
get really offended because you're just like TV shows. But then you mentioned some
TV shows you like, and then like, yeah, I think that I
did, Like at the end of that where you're like naming shows that you
like, and then you say, like, she says something about sitcoms,
and then you're like named some like classic sitcoms, and then you say cheers,
and then she thinks you meant like to cheers glasses, so she cheers
and you're like, no, no, all right whatever, like you and
then Josh is like, you did it. You just cheers to that,
and you're like, yeah, it is easier. So then then the rest
of the story is, yeah, they the spider is in the place,
and then h Cooper mentions how he has a friend who created a perfume that
kills uh spider because it's like a perfume slash bugspray. The reason why I
did that is in Eight Legged Freaks, the way David Rque and the perfume
and it messes up the senses of the spider or whatever. So I put
that in there. That was like my way of tying it together. And
then the other thing I put in that one was like Anderson and Kelly arguing
over whether you say hello for someone. And the reason why I say this
is I had like a talk with somebody one time where somebody was like,
oh, you're gonna go see them say hello for me? And I've never
done that. I've never said hell, yeah, have you ever done I
have done? Have you Yeah, I've done it. I've never done it.
I don't know if it's because that should be part of it too.
You're just so socially hawkward. I mean, that's for sure, but I
don't. For me, it's like I think I just don't remember. Yeah,
that's why what it is. I mean for me, I do just
a pens It's like my girlfriend or somebody close to me and they're like,
oh, say ahi for me, I'm like, I will do it.
Yeah. I mean, I guess it makes sense if it's like your girlfriend
or your wife or something like that, but like if it's like a friend
or something, A lot of times I just don't think of it because I'm
not hanging out with my friends. Like you're so self involved and I only
say hello for myself. You want to say hello, you go and then
say hello and text him and say yeah, say hello. Yeah, why
I gotta be the what is this old time, like send a fucking pigeon
or whatever? Sent God. Yeah. So that was that one, and
then the finale, and it took me a long time because we were working
on other shows too, So I finally I had to sit down and just
say, screw it, I'm gonna write this finale. And it wasn't like
it was a big finale. It was basically you were just going to get
a call back over the job. The film strip, and but I just
wanted to kind of tie it in. I didn't know what movie to pick,
and I remember standing in front of my movie Shelf, which ends up
being part of the story too. Is when I was standing in front of
my movie Shelf, I was like looking through all the movies. For some
reason, I was thinking of like actors and stuff, and I thought it'd
be funny for Brad if he only mentioned every the mail Oh yeah, that's
right, yeah, and all goes into the hole. Yeah. So that
was the thing as I was like, that would be yeah. I was
like, that'd be a Brad thing where he was just like naming, and
then Kelly would and then he finally like, oh wait, but well it's
funny. Was uh. When Hope came to record for that, we were
doing it and I was reading back and forth with her and she's like,
well, you know, like I don't know, like I would probably name
the same people that he's naming right now. I go, well, let
it keep going and see. And then when it starts getting to movies like
Alien or something like that, or Juno, you're naming like Michael Sarah or
Tom Scarrett or something like that, and she's like, oh yeah, no,
Sigourney Weaver. I'm like, yeah, of course, But I just
I thought it was funny because then you're just like, oh, yeah,
no, I see now I see what the problem is. Yeah. I
think I did the same thing reading the script too. I was like but
yeah, but I would say these yeah, yeah, but then you get
to those and we're like, no, this guy's got a problem. But
I think that's why would have made it funnier, is like how it got
more and more. I think it was a really funny, fun like a
little bit and you know, important discussion now important discussion because actress do you
think they should be called actors and actresses or just actors? I really don't
care, dude, I don't care. You know, it's like actor,
actors, actresses? Do you when you when? If do you say actresses?
Though? Like have you said yeah? Yeah? I mean I mean,
look, it's a descriptor, right, It's like how do you I
mean, who's that actress that'll tell you okay, is the same female who
is an actress or an actor? So like then you can get there quicker.
That's the whole player, right. So it's like does it matter if
you already know that you're talking about actors and they're all actors whatever, But
if you're trying to identify someone, sometimes you got to say the chick you
are the female female actress, so exactly, no, I know, I
I and they still get everything. It's so semantical these days, and I
get it. There's some things that you know, need to probably die.
Listening to podcast and they were talking about, um, you know, boyfriend
girlfriend thing. You know how everybody's kind of going to partner now you know
a lot more people or not everybody, but people are saying partner more often.
Yeah, which makes perfect sense, you know. I mean whatever I
call some you know, my girlfriend Serena my partner, you know, but
or my girlfriend or whatever. My whole thing is, like not even the
fact that like changing any words or adding anything to like the lexicon to like
make it inclusive or whatever the reasons are and stuff. My whole thing is
just just say what you want. Like I want to say, that's my
partner, you want to say that's my boyfriend, if you want to say
whatever, whatever it makes you feel kinked about it, I really don't.
It's your life, it's your relationship, and you saying that isn't going to
affect me at all. So I really don't care about that kind of stuff.
I don't get overly involved in it either. Yeah, I will say
um that this this episode also, besides that part, has one of my
favorite lines of dialogue. That I wrote. I wrote it a long time
ago because I have like in my notes section on my phone, like I
write like little pieces of dialogue or head yeah, and I'm like, oh,
maybe I can work that into something. And one of them was a
long time ago. I was dating this one girl. Went to her house.
Her dad was super old fashioned, and when I walked in, I
was wearing a hat and he was like, you're not going to take your
hat off? I go wow. So I was like, oh sorry,
and then she's like, yeah, I told you. See. He like
that's just how he is, Like all right, yeah, yeah, he's
an asshole. So he's you know, but he like stood to meet me
at the door, shook my hand, all that kind of stuff. He
was just really old school, and so I kind of worked that into this
conversation where I thought it was funny that like Cooper had the kind of the
same situation that he mentioned, and basically he says, but I don't understand
because I and this is what I thought is I watched a lot of old
movies, and yes, sometimes guys will take off their hat in an elevator
and like an old movie and stuff, but there's a lot of like detective
films I never saw, and they were always wearing the hat, even like
around girl like women and stuff. So uh yeah, but they're rebellious,
they're rope exactly well, and that's why I looked up in like detectives were
also known as dicks. I was like, maybe that's why they were referred
to as dicks. So I just thought that that was like a funny little
joke that I somewhere. I wanted to put it into somewhere, and I
thought about maybe even at let's have a new beat. But then eventually I
was like, nah, I think that's a little bit more like like a
real conversation. I could throw into something that that makes, you know,
something that's more realistic. So I put it in here and that was I
was like, yeah, it kind of fit. And then the last thing
besides you getting your h callback or whatever is you guys talk about nobody colon
memes, that whole thing that that was just more of me seeing that meme
constantly on Facebook and being like annoyed with it. I mean just memes in
general. Certain ones just die after a while, they really do, a
lot of them do, but they're still like some of them are still here
years and years later, so that was like a little thing. And then
at the very end, Brad actually ends ends things with Callie, and I
think I'm gonna have it because now he obviously it wasn't gonna work out.
She didn't like movies and he was just dating her because of out of spite,
and uh, you know, eventually he's gonna try to get Daisy to
have her girls night and show up there. So that's season two. Season
three. I don't know when I'm gonna start it. I haven't started writing
it yet. It'll be six episodes. I don't know who the main character
is going to be. I'm thinking maybe Anderson. But our friend Nick is
moving away, right, So he's moving away and he's gonna be out of
the state, new state, new home. Knew everything, and he'll probably
still record for us. He's gonna buy a mic and probably set something up.
But it's gonna be a while. So I'm gonna wait a little bit
before I start Movie Night and then see if he wants to continue as Anderson
or if I have to recast. We'll see, Yeah, well, I
hopefully we don't have to recast, and I don't want to recast. The
whole thing is uh. Nick has recorded like kind of finished recording for his
other roles in the other shows for the most part, so that shouldn't be
too big of a deal. But piece out Nick, Yeah, alright,
ditching your friends to go live with your wife kids or dare you? Yeah?
So rude? So he stuck here for listen? Fine, you don't
like saying Pete yeah here, yeah, here, don't come back somewhere affordable
very much, very much. They got like a really nice house. I'm
sure South Carolina and North Carolina. I don't remember South Carolina, I think,
but um no, maybe it's North Carolina. But they're out there and
they got a really nice house. It's kind of on the outskirts of like
it's not in like a major city or anything, but it's not too far
away and there are a lot of affordable places or you get really nice places.
This is not one of them, Ladies and gentlemen. It's hard man,
Saint Pete is. It's on the come up, which means you're getting
fucked. Yeah, yeah, pretty much. Hardcore rents and oh my god,
rent around here. How do you think I still live in a garage?
I don't blame I wish I could live in a garage. Indeed,
one day, one day we'll be able to afford air conditioning in a studio.
We'll see, we'll see. But yeah, so I'm gonna, you
know, I'm gonna get around to writing. I'm gonna try to write all
six episodes before we even start recording. I need to just do that.
Just takes a long time, and sometimes I just don't feel like writing.
But I'm gonna try to do that. That way, maybe Nick will be
ready by then, and then I'll just see if he wants to record.
So maybe by the end of this year, get the next season. Now,
now you have to just write two seasons, an alternate one. It'd
be like, yeah, Spider Man with a multiverse exactly, then it could
be the different Nick. Oh my god, No, I'll just get into
news like him, Miles Morales. Anderson. Yeah. There's one thing like
I'm gonna probably put into one of the scripts is that I didn't realize I
have like Anderson Cooper Anderson, Yeah, I know, I did notice that.
I noticed it, like later on when I was writing, I'm like,
oh, that should be something. I don't know what, but I'll
make it somehow, and then what was There's one other thing I was gonna
say, um, other than people enjoying seeming to enjoy the podcasting at more
downloads, which is nice. Uh oh. So a little thing that I'm
thinking about doing is having season three because season two there's a mention of them
going to see a movie in the theater, and then they mentioned seeing a
trailer for Invisible Man, which was that Elizabeth Moss right, which I haven't
watched yet. I know it's supposed to be really good. Yeah, good,
like the and I mean good as in not necessarily like just the story,
but like the tension to build up, and like the cinematography. Yeah,
I've heard all. I've heard only good things about it. Yeah,
I see there the trailer for it, and I was like, damn,
that actually does look good. And I want coming off of the Mummy,
which was their whole setup for the Dark Universe, which did not pan out,
and now they canceled it, so after one movie they're like, nah,
never mind. But then they do the Invisible Man and that's actually pretty
really good. Yea. So but the reason why I mentioned that is that
was right before COVID hit so I'm thinking I might do a season three and
just have it based on around COVID, like having them doing COVID times have
to I mean, I think it'd be kind of cool because I could pick
like movies like Contagion, like some different movies and like, or we could
just move the fuck on from No No. I feel like, I mean
maybe if I did, it would only be for like one season, but
I thought it would be cool to like do that and then have something happened
along the lines of like them trying to live around this time during COVID while
they're all maybe off of work and doing the movie nights and yeah, hanging
out more and then and then I'd have an excuse to get them together more
often, which to me, a lot of times I have to kind of
find excuses for them to get together because a lot of times you probably just
text your friend. So I just I'm like, no, I want it
to be more you know, traditional sitcom where they meet on that would be
a good excuse for why or if he gets with Daisy, Yeah, it's
spend more time together and you know, armor comes down, the walls come
down, all the stress of COVID. Yeah, you know. I mean,
shit, God knows, it's happened plenty. I'm sure throughout COVID all
kinds of people hooking up. You shouldn't been. Oh yeah, y'all should
have known better. Yeah, right, it's happening. I mean, that's
an idea. I don't know for sure if I'll do that, but I
just think you'd be kind of cool to write that. And because we all
lived it, so we certainly did. Other than that, I think that's
it for this recap episode kind of went through everything. Um. Like I
said, I don't know when season three will come out, but I'm gonna
start writing it within the next few months, so probably by the end of
this year, probably start releasing it. Um at least six episodes again.
And uh, I guess I should plug Patreon if you want to help donate,
right, don't. Maybe I should do like a side story one too.
