Hey, cannon Ball, I like
your statement. When life takes a cheap

00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:08.000
shadow you you stand your ground.
Billy Corgan smashing pumpkins homage, Simpson smiling

00:00:08.039 --> 00:00:11.919
politely. You know, my kids
think you're the greatest, and thanks to

4
00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:16.519
your gloomy music, they finally stop
dreaming of a future I can possibly provide.

00:00:16.879 --> 00:00:37.000
Well, We try to make a
difference. Four finger Discounted. Welcome

6
00:00:37.039 --> 00:00:40.759
to four figure discount A very special
classic review gone all the way back to

7
00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:44.119
season seven of the Simpsons. This
week, we're here to review Home a

8
00:00:44.119 --> 00:00:48.079
Paloozer. I'm Denk and I am
gud. This is classic rock. You

9
00:00:48.119 --> 00:00:53.799
know, we we're excited. We
rub a hands together sometimes and sometimes I

10
00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:57.079
couldn't believe how much I related to
this one from a whole new perspective.

11
00:00:57.280 --> 00:01:00.200
I hadn't gone back and review this
one since maybe twenty seventeen did this with

12
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:03.560
Mitch. I've maybe watched it one
or two times since then, But this

13
00:01:03.599 --> 00:01:07.079
one here, I watched it going, holy shit, I'm home now.

14
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:11.920
When you're in, when you're at
thirties and you're sort of reaching in mid

15
00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:14.359
thirties as you have, yeah,
that's when it really starts to kick and

16
00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:17.760
it's like, oh, yeah,
the generation gap is real and I am

17
00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:19.719
on one side of it. Yeah. The thing is this episode, right,

18
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:23.599
it feels like a real time capsule. However, because of the story

19
00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:27.000
told within it, right, it's
an episode that feels timeless as well,

20
00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:30.640
rather than dated, because it's a
it's spoken Vickiet Generation X, right,

21
00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:34.480
and it's got a nineties vibe to
it. But just the story of feeling

22
00:01:34.519 --> 00:01:38.400
out of touch will forever be relatable. Well, it's incredibly summed up in

23
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:42.959
that bit the the Grandpa meme.
Yeah, it was like, yeah,

24
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:45.439
I used to be with it.
Now what now? What it is is

25
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:47.680
just scary and unfamiliar to me.
It's going to happen to you too,

26
00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:51.719
It's like, and of course we'll
change what it was. When you now

27
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:53.359
see that as a young person,
you're like, well, I think the

28
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:57.079
zone're even saying this episode, No
way, man, I'm cool forever,

29
00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:01.480
a rock on forever, forever forever. Yeah, and now it's incredible.

30
00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:05.640
I mean I've got a few,
uh say, a few years, a

31
00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:09.680
few decades on you. But for
me, it was funny looking at the

32
00:02:09.680 --> 00:02:15.400
way Generation X, my generation is
depicted in this and how of course I'm

33
00:02:15.400 --> 00:02:17.639
an old man. I'm kind of
shaking my fist at the Zoomers and the

34
00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:23.280
millennials, going, you're just not
with it. Their mood, their attitude

35
00:02:23.439 --> 00:02:28.840
is very similar to me at least. It's like, oh, so this

36
00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:32.800
is how I probably looked to my
parents order people like, oh, you

37
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:37.319
know, you're apathetic and you know, oh you don't believe in anything,

38
00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:39.360
and you just you want everything handed
to you. It's like, was I

39
00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:43.520
really like that? Because that's how
I regard the kids these days. Every

40
00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:46.719
generation feels like the generation after them
has it easy. Oh absolutely, in

41
00:02:46.759 --> 00:02:53.000
my day. Every once in a
while someone will bring up it's like there

42
00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:58.000
was some graffiti on the walls in
like ancient Greece or ancient Rome, we

43
00:02:58.120 --> 00:03:04.120
had a philosopher saying, but children
they believe in nothing. Yeah, they

44
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:07.280
are lazy and shiftless and all these
kinds. Oh my god. It's always

45
00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:10.400
it has always been this way,
and it will probably always be. It

46
00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:15.120
feels like generation always feels when he
gets like forty to fifty, you feel

47
00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:19.520
like the younger generation you're scared of
them, because now quite often he people.

48
00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:22.159
We used to be able to leave
the front doors unlocked and it's like,

49
00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:25.039
we can't do that anymore. And
it's like, I do think it

50
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:28.759
feels a little bit more dangerous now
too. But also the world is so

51
00:03:28.840 --> 00:03:31.719
much more accessible now where we're hearing
all these horrible news stories on a more

52
00:03:31.759 --> 00:03:36.039
global scale. Yeah, and you
wonder if it becomes a bit of a

53
00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:39.000
self perpetual, self fulfilling prophecy in
that regard. It's like, oh,

54
00:03:39.080 --> 00:03:43.960
okay, so so I'm talking about
I used to be able to leave my

55
00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:46.520
door unlocked, and now people think
my door's unlocked. Way better lock my

56
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:52.439
door. Yeah. Yeah, it's
an interesting but that's just the dynamic.

57
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:54.719
That's not necessarily the story here.
No, the story here is Homer feeling

58
00:03:54.719 --> 00:03:57.960
out of touch with his kids.
Yeah, this is just I used to

59
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:00.000
be cool and now I'm not cool. Yeah, yeah, which I'm going

60
00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:03.439
through now. Or you know,
you are still cool, but you're cool

61
00:04:03.479 --> 00:04:09.039
on your terms. Yeah, but
someone else is setting the terms, or

62
00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:14.360
someone who is setting society's terms.
Because we always think the kids know what's

63
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:18.199
what. Sometimes they do sometimes they
don't. I mean, is this they

64
00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:23.720
talk about what do they actually call
the festival? And this they don't call

65
00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:29.360
it? Home holor loser holoor Palooser. But but this is based on Lollapalooser.

66
00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:31.079
Yeah, and I don't know if
we actually talked about it on air,

67
00:04:32.079 --> 00:04:36.000
but there's a documentary on Paramount Plus
I'm called Lola, the Story of

68
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:41.639
Lollapalooza, the festival and how you
said it's worth watching. It's pretty interesting.

69
00:04:41.720 --> 00:04:43.920
Yeah, it was the Woodstock one
though, right, No, no,

70
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:46.600
but that is so good. Well
that's because it was such a you're

71
00:04:46.600 --> 00:04:50.160
talking about Woodstock ninety al. Yeah, I'm just so glad we have all

72
00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:55.600
the footage of it. I'm like, this was fucking crazy, I know.

73
00:04:56.079 --> 00:04:59.560
Yeah, but looking at this this
three part doc o called Lola,

74
00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:02.439
I mean it's very much. It's
executive produced by Perry Farrell, who was

75
00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:10.199
the front man of Jane's Addiction and
basically established a Lola Paloser and so and

76
00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:12.560
so you a lot of You've got
a lot of these people from say Rage

77
00:05:12.560 --> 00:05:15.040
against the Machine and all these other
bands, right, yeah, yeah,

78
00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:17.480
you're thinking about Perry Farrell, is
he is a genius? And then he

79
00:05:17.519 --> 00:05:19.680
got Perry Farrell saying I don't know, I think I just you know,

80
00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:23.319
I just wanted to get a lot
of people together and have play some music.

81
00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:26.680
It's like, Perry, you're pumping
up your own tires here. Lu

82
00:05:26.720 --> 00:05:29.600
and I were we watched together when
we were Cut of Love. I think

83
00:05:29.839 --> 00:05:32.120
Perry Farrell might be the you know, president of the Perry Farrell fan club.

84
00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:36.040
By the n we're going. He
was kind of onto something. He's

85
00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:41.480
a bit of a he's a little
up himself, but justifiably so. If

86
00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:44.680
you are a subscriber to Paramount Plus
or you want to get that Sweet Sweet

87
00:05:44.720 --> 00:05:48.079
you know what is it free week
trial or something like that, Lola is

88
00:05:48.079 --> 00:05:54.399
definitely worth checking out. But you're
watching that as as I said a member

89
00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:59.399
of Generation X. It was launched
in the early nineties and had you know,

90
00:05:59.480 --> 00:06:02.000
these terrific bands that are now sort
of iconic bands of that era in

91
00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:06.360
their early stages like yeah, Iced
Tea is there? Yeah, Rage against

92
00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:10.639
the Machine, all these others,
Pearl Jam, et cetera, et cetera.

93
00:06:11.240 --> 00:06:13.560
Nirvana thought it would be selling out, so they didn't do it.

94
00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:16.639
They did do They did Redding Festival. Yeah, oh yeah, yeah,

95
00:06:16.680 --> 00:06:19.600
but look at they go, Wow, that's so incredibly vibrant and cool.

96
00:06:19.800 --> 00:06:23.319
Look at these great bands. You
know, music was never so good.

97
00:06:23.759 --> 00:06:27.279
And then Lolla Blois went away for
a while, got re launched, and

98
00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:30.079
they were like, I don't recognize
any of these bands are artists, and

99
00:06:30.079 --> 00:06:31.639
the one that they do, they
straighten me is pop sellouts. They don't

100
00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:38.160
like them, Billy I, at
least you do. That's cool. What

101
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:41.240
was that festival that just went to
ship about three or four years ago as

102
00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:46.040
a whole documentary about it, five
Festival. Yeah, I still haven't watched

103
00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:48.519
that documentary. Pretty fun. Yeah, just if you're like watching shit go

104
00:06:48.639 --> 00:06:54.600
up in metaphorically go up in flames
as opposed to Woodstock with the shit literally

105
00:06:54.639 --> 00:06:58.279
went up. Yeah, it was
Fred Dorsa says break ship or something.

106
00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:04.040
Oh yeah, yeah, break stuff. It's like they did, okay,

107
00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:08.839
Fred, I love like there's a
point like in the documentary was like mid

108
00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:12.839
like performance, everyone's like, oh
shit, to cut the mics. Oh

109
00:07:12.879 --> 00:07:17.199
yeah. But this episode I also
thought looked at the relationship with Homer and

110
00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:21.560
Bart in particular and sometimes Lisa.
Yeah, but his main focus is the

111
00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:25.959
arc of Homer appearing uncool and embarrassing
to his kids, particularly, but it

112
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:28.720
embarrasses him in front of his friends, to the person that he admires the

113
00:07:28.759 --> 00:07:33.000
most, to by the end being
the uncool parent again, despite the fact

114
00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:35.759
that he put his family first.
I feel like I'm at the moment there

115
00:07:35.800 --> 00:07:39.800
with Aliott not not yet, but
I'm dreading them where I'm not cool to

116
00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:43.600
ali anyonere because right now I'm not
his world. But it's like everything I

117
00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:45.680
do, it's like he looks up
to me. They'll get a point where

118
00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:47.360
he wants to take on the word
himself and I won't be cool anymore.

119
00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:50.639
But I think we all go through
that phase of our parents aren't cool.

120
00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:53.879
They're talking about they just trying to
tell us off, tell us to do

121
00:07:53.959 --> 00:07:56.639
things because they are our parents.
They want to boss us around. And

122
00:07:56.639 --> 00:07:59.439
you get to like maybe seventeen eighteen, you're like, oh shit, you

123
00:07:59.480 --> 00:08:01.759
were just trying to me up for
life. Oh you had a point.

124
00:08:01.920 --> 00:08:05.800
Yeah, all those stories there was
a meaning to them. Yes. So

125
00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:09.399
I just love the way that the
arc there of it was uncool. He

126
00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:15.079
admired him. He's uncol but eventually
he will, yeah, realize it's funny.

127
00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:18.480
Lou had to pick a daughter up
in Melbourne, yeah, from a

128
00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:24.000
concert on Sunday night, and they
were driving back and you know, the

129
00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:28.800
girls in the back are talking about
something and have you tried anel as a

130
00:08:28.879 --> 00:08:31.480
conversations in jo of Nicholas. At
one time, Nichola was out at a

131
00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:35.679
went out for dinner with her friends
from mother's and the mom picked up the

132
00:08:35.720 --> 00:08:39.399
girls right, No, it was
at a handstone note anyway, and the

133
00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:41.320
mother of one of the girls picked
him up, was driving him home and

134
00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:43.559
when it was like, so if
you guys tried anal and then one of

135
00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:48.200
the guys like, because I like
the chick say it was in the front

136
00:08:48.360 --> 00:08:52.039
with her mum's just like Nicholas,
like, it was so fucking awkward.

137
00:08:52.960 --> 00:09:01.200
Lou's story is relatively tame, I
think to a conversation and basically, can

138
00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:05.559
you explain the Drake Kendrick Lamar beef
to me? And the girls then did

139
00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:11.559
so and then put on some songs
and now lose algorithm as but Spotify playlist

140
00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:16.840
is now just but you came.
I think I'm I think I'm team Kendrick.

141
00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:20.799
Though Drake sounds like a dirt back
just throws in a bit of a

142
00:09:20.960 --> 00:09:26.240
cally ca Well, that was my
job back in the day. Also,

143
00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:30.960
I appreciated the satire of just music
festivals in general and the specialization of them

144
00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:33.559
all just the ticket well that yeah, but that's very much what Lolapalooza is

145
00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:37.679
as well. Yeah. I mean
I think music festivals prior of that probably

146
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:43.399
had no they would have had setups
of things like that. But again Perry

147
00:09:43.399 --> 00:09:46.279
Farrell sort of pumping up his own
tires. He was like, yeah,

148
00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:48.080
we also had art stands and political
stands, and you know, all these

149
00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:54.200
things could be all these showcases and
not just one side of politics. We

150
00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:56.440
wanted to have everybody on this budget
jump for racism or something, yeah,

151
00:09:56.519 --> 00:10:03.080
like exchange other ideas and things like
that, and having them go into oh

152
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:07.879
god, I forgot the name already
home Hulla Blues Holabalooser Yeah, but with

153
00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:11.360
a Hella baloos Hella Balooser. Yeah, having them go in and it's all

154
00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:16.600
these different corporations and everything like that. Yeah, this feels very much like

155
00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:18.440
you're trying to thread the needle of
art and commerce. Yeah. Yeah,

156
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:22.879
so, and we also got a
very thought a South parkish ending, not

157
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:26.559
quite the end, but towards the
end. Words like, we learned something

158
00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:30.000
today about with the music festival.
I think it was especially Pumpkins, yeah,

159
00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:31.440
who were saying, it's just like
you know what you know, and

160
00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:35.559
that's where they realized that they're rich. I think, Oh, Billy Corgan,

161
00:10:35.639 --> 00:10:37.399
especially Billy Corgan, he was.
It was a real good sport.

162
00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:41.759
Yeah, him, him and em
and Peter Frampton man. But let's talk

163
00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:45.600
a bit about the musical lineup.
Yes, yes, they had in this

164
00:10:45.639 --> 00:10:48.919
episode because it was Cypress Hill was
the one I think everyone remembers the most,

165
00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:52.120
maybe specially Pumpkins, but Cypress Hill
and the fucking orchestra. Yeah,

166
00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:56.679
very much so. But prior to
the people that they actually got for this,

167
00:10:56.000 --> 00:11:00.240
they wanted now a bunch of others
and some turned them down and some

168
00:11:00.720 --> 00:11:05.960
were not included for other reasons because
apparently they've got Peter Frampton in there.

169
00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:09.159
Frampton very big in the seventies.
Anyone who's watched Wayne's Well knows, you

170
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:09.879
know, they were Basically I still
don't know who he is. I just

171
00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:13.159
know from the Simpsons. Yeah,
you got his pig wouldn't work. That's

172
00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:16.519
not allies lunch. If you're in
the if you're around in the nineteen seventies,

173
00:11:16.519 --> 00:11:20.840
basically every house had a copy of
Frampton Comes Alive. Really okay,

174
00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:24.279
yeah, that was his live album. It was a double album. But

175
00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:26.320
yeah, just huge. In the
nineteen seventies, Wain's Well says, you

176
00:11:26.399 --> 00:11:31.120
know, I think they're he and
Wayne and Tea Carrera at like the record

177
00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:35.080
shop and like what's this? Yeah, every every home came with this.

178
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:37.799
You bought a house, You've got
a copy of Framden comes Live. He's

179
00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:43.399
kind of the elder statesman in this. They initially wanted Bob Dylan and yeah,

180
00:11:43.480 --> 00:11:48.840
and Dylan. I think she said
no, thanks. Sorry anytime Dylan's

181
00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:52.399
mentioned I've got it. Oh again, Sorry, it's time for things.

182
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:58.039
Guys saw on Twitter there was some
tweet last night where this woman wrote,

183
00:11:58.720 --> 00:12:03.679
uh, my husband seeing wheels on
the bus in the style of Bob Dylan,

184
00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:09.360
and now my baby is unbelievably angry. I saw that while I was

185
00:12:09.399 --> 00:12:11.399
on the couch with Lou and again
I was just laughing at like why are

186
00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:16.200
you laughing. Sometimes you see things
on social media like this is what the

187
00:12:16.200 --> 00:12:20.039
Internet's for very much. It's just
just a snappy comment that you would normally

188
00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:22.919
hear at the pub or something.
It's like oh, my husband saying it

189
00:12:24.120 --> 00:12:26.240
was on the buzz like Bob Dylan. It just pissed off the kid.

190
00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:31.720
The weird and the bad It's like, have you seen a video of people

191
00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:35.080
have frogs doing a frog splash?
Have you seen a video? Is that

192
00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:37.559
the one you sent me with the
frog on the ladder? Yeah? The

193
00:12:37.559 --> 00:12:39.919
frog on the table and they played
John sens visico. Did the frogs flash

194
00:12:39.000 --> 00:12:45.519
through the table? This is what
the Internet was made for? But someone

195
00:12:45.559 --> 00:12:48.840
else they wanted, well, they
want to Courtney Love and Whole. Yeah,

196
00:12:48.200 --> 00:12:52.559
and or she originally had the line
of the smiling politely that's right.

197
00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:54.960
I mean it would have been,
oh, Homer, I'm a big fan

198
00:12:54.080 --> 00:13:00.399
Courtney Love, which when Homer replies, Homer grateful, which is not work

199
00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:05.120
as well. That's not unfunny,
But for mine, it's it's a top

200
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:11.320
ten Simpsons exchange. Its politely Yeah, Billy Corgan's smashing punkins. What was

201
00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:18.000
Simpson smiling? You could just retire? Yeah, written that, I mean,

202
00:13:18.039 --> 00:13:20.039
you might as well just hang up
your guns. It was almost like

203
00:13:20.159 --> 00:13:22.080
Courtney Love and Hole turning down The
Simpsons was like the universe trying to set

204
00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:26.039
them up for this perfect gag.
But did they turn them down because apparently

205
00:13:26.200 --> 00:13:28.360
Sonic Youth, who appear in this
episode were like, we're not going to

206
00:13:28.399 --> 00:13:31.000
be on this episode if Courtney Love
is in this Well, they didn't respond

207
00:13:31.200 --> 00:13:35.360
to the to the quest. Yeah, Love was wanted specifically for one joke,

208
00:13:35.399 --> 00:13:37.960
which was the exchange, and they
it's never got back. But that

209
00:13:37.320 --> 00:13:41.679
has been said that at something Weekly
said that that johny Youth wouldn't appear.

210
00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:46.120
I just love this like into inter
which they wouldn't appear if whole were there.

211
00:13:46.120 --> 00:13:48.440
Of Courtney Love was there. Well, of course there was this ongoing

212
00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:52.399
rumor slash urban legend that you know, Kirkerban didn't actually kill him stuff,

213
00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:58.480
all that'd vidiculousfomped Corney Love. It's
yeah, I don't know kind of you

214
00:13:58.519 --> 00:14:01.279
know, riggs and misogyny and jealousy
and all this kind of ship. Yeah,

215
00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:05.240
I think it's just let's okay,
Yeah, let's not get let's not

216
00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:09.720
bring the mood down. But you're
right, I mean, but no doubt

217
00:14:09.720 --> 00:14:11.399
we're also in this episode. They
were. Indeed, it didn't have any

218
00:14:11.480 --> 00:14:15.559
line I noticed in the back because
Eric was working. Was he right or

219
00:14:15.639 --> 00:14:16.919
was the animator on the show animator? I think I think it was an

220
00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:18.960
anime. It was an animated Yes, is he animator on the show?

221
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:24.799
Yeah, But Cyprus Hill playing to
their strengths or playing into their stereotyp like

222
00:14:24.840 --> 00:14:28.559
they were stoned all the time,
but also how great is just insane in

223
00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:31.720
the brain? Oh god? Or
basically anything by Cypress Hill but just so

224
00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:39.399
distinctive, but particularly hearing the orchestra
do it though, right. It's one

225
00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:41.120
of those things where in theory is
like this could be cool, and here

226
00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:45.879
you're like, goes now this I
life is like it's actually fucking amazing,

227
00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:48.559
Yeah, because I mean, is
it insane the rain or they're sort of

228
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:52.480
doing like no, itice it is, but it's like a it's like a

229
00:14:52.559 --> 00:14:56.600
jaunty version that they're doing, like
his singing as as the violin. Yeah,

230
00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:01.600
I thought that was sort of doing
another song that sounded a bit like

231
00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:07.440
it because a bit of a nerdy
reference here, but you've seen The Godfather

232
00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:11.799
and Godfather part not all too there's
a bit in the start of two where

233
00:15:11.879 --> 00:15:16.840
you know they're at this big event
and there's an orchestra playing, and one

234
00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:18.960
of the mobster guys goes to the
band is that you're not playing any Italian

235
00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:26.600
music player Tarantella. Yeah, and
the band doesn't know it and they play

236
00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:30.320
pop goes the weasel instead. Never
it's just all the all the whites are

237
00:15:30.360 --> 00:15:35.200
like, that's hilarious, and the
mob going oh you uncle, And that's

238
00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:37.240
what it's sort of sounds like to
me, is like we don't quite get

239
00:15:37.279 --> 00:15:41.240
this, but we do. Yeah, I know. I still thought it

240
00:15:41.320 --> 00:15:45.399
was very, very funny, but
just all that stuff, did you we

241
00:15:45.480 --> 00:15:48.759
actually ordered the Oxtra Okay, fine, let's go. Let's go with that

242
00:15:48.200 --> 00:15:54.720
possibly high Cypress Hill. Yeah.
I think that they captured the vibe of

243
00:15:54.799 --> 00:15:58.639
music traveling music festival as well,
because you think of music festivals now right,

244
00:15:58.679 --> 00:16:02.639
and then they exist much in Australia
at all, but it doesn't feel

245
00:16:02.759 --> 00:16:07.159
like a traveling music festival exists anymore
when the bands are all like hanging out

246
00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:08.360
together. Yeah. I mean,
well, one of the things about this

247
00:16:08.480 --> 00:16:14.120
Loblo documentary is that how it was
a traveling thing, was it really thens

248
00:16:14.200 --> 00:16:17.600
just got two nuts and now it's
just based in Chicago. Yeah okay,

249
00:16:17.799 --> 00:16:19.639
yeah, which because it's just now
bands have their own rooms, they find

250
00:16:19.639 --> 00:16:22.120
their own way to get there,
which I can get that, but just

251
00:16:22.159 --> 00:16:26.720
the idea of the comaraderie that would
come with traveling together, yeah, well

252
00:16:26.759 --> 00:16:29.799
you see that on this documentary as
well. Everyone's so yeah, backing each

253
00:16:29.799 --> 00:16:32.120
other up and having fun with each
other. It's great. But yeah,

254
00:16:32.120 --> 00:16:37.759
I think you're right in that Smashing
Pumpkins are kind of the MVP guest performance

255
00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:38.759
in this episode. I mean not
just yeah, Billy Corgan, I think

256
00:16:38.840 --> 00:16:42.399
is great. Everyone has their moment, some of you have the cooler moment,

257
00:16:42.840 --> 00:16:47.399
Smashing Pumpkins especially, And then they
actually play a song yeah we can't

258
00:16:47.440 --> 00:16:51.120
get insane in the brain as well, but also playing my probably my favorite

259
00:16:51.159 --> 00:16:55.399
Smashing Pumpkins song, I love zero. It's a fantastic. Yeah, I

260
00:16:55.559 --> 00:16:57.559
love it. I'm very much home
with it and nod my head like I

261
00:16:57.759 --> 00:17:04.079
was in the band. Oh my
god. The early bit of cultural appropriation

262
00:17:04.200 --> 00:17:11.400
from Homer. I love having a
batch too cool for this planet. This

263
00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:15.839
really strike. This whole episode is
great in terms of its references, because

264
00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:18.599
it's one thing that I think,
you know, a lot of us love

265
00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:22.079
about, particularly classic bench Simpsons or
whatever. How it throws in just references

266
00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:26.000
from all over the place, whether
it's you know, I mean, this

267
00:17:26.119 --> 00:17:30.640
has got stuff that's very relevant to
Lollapalooza and Generation X and all that kind

268
00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:33.000
of stuff. But you know,
the bit where home is strutting around.

269
00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:40.240
That's like fabulous, very freak brothers. That's seventies alternative animation designed to designed

270
00:17:40.240 --> 00:17:41.720
to make him feel old as well. Yeah. Also, yeah, example

271
00:17:41.720 --> 00:17:44.279
of es. You know, oh, this was cool when he was a

272
00:17:44.359 --> 00:17:48.160
kid, but you know you're gonna
have people who were Homer's age at this

273
00:17:48.519 --> 00:17:52.319
stage when this episode released, going, at least I got that bit,

274
00:17:52.759 --> 00:17:55.279
you know, that's when I was
with it. Yeah, And also,

275
00:17:55.960 --> 00:17:57.720
I mean, sorry, what was
the release date of this episode? This

276
00:17:57.880 --> 00:18:02.559
was in ninety six. Look at
up hanging one second. It was released

277
00:18:02.759 --> 00:18:07.039
originally May nineteenth, ninety six.
Yeah, even the bit where Homer wants

278
00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:08.920
to be sort of part of the
cool crowd. Those guys at the what

279
00:18:10.279 --> 00:18:12.720
do they call it, oh,
the second Basemobile, Yeah, they're all

280
00:18:14.480 --> 00:18:18.000
the Franken's sign what's the signs?
A song by the Winner Group? Yeah,

281
00:18:18.599 --> 00:18:22.279
dirt dirt fucking What's a good song. Absolutely, But all the characters

282
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:26.960
around the van are styled like characters
from the movie Dazed and Confused, which

283
00:18:27.000 --> 00:18:30.640
came out a few earlier. Okay, yeah, I mean particularly the guy

284
00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:33.359
with the blonde hair who's sort of
talking about second base. We were that's

285
00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:37.680
McConaughey's character from someone's talk about mcnaughey, he's got a bit of a welcome

286
00:18:37.680 --> 00:18:41.519
to the second basement. Yeah,
so even throwing stuff like that, and

287
00:18:41.559 --> 00:18:44.000
I mean Days and FEUs was never
a huge hit, but it became a

288
00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:47.240
cult hit over the following years.
So even to throw that in, it's

289
00:18:47.319 --> 00:18:49.319
just like if you know, you
know, and that's it's just be so

290
00:18:49.400 --> 00:18:52.839
great for that. It used to
be really great. Even if you didn't

291
00:18:52.839 --> 00:18:55.079
get everything, there was going to
be someone who got it. Because it

292
00:18:55.079 --> 00:18:56.799
feels like now that we're reviewing season
nineteen episodes, it feels like the're trying

293
00:18:56.799 --> 00:19:02.240
to references that a pop culture current
at that time, and it's like you

294
00:19:02.359 --> 00:19:07.559
forgot the lesson of home a Loser. Yeah, yeah, that's that strikes

295
00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:11.319
me as a bit a little bit
sad, Yes, but I just yeah,

296
00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:14.880
this overall just really really relate to
his episode from my host perspective,

297
00:19:14.920 --> 00:19:17.480
which really surprised me. And there's
a lot of gags in this that I

298
00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:19.440
missed as a kid. I can't
remember. I may have missed them when

299
00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:22.559
we did our last review, but
get into them now with favorite moments.

300
00:19:25.400 --> 00:19:27.519
My favorite so one that I really
loved. It's just a passing comment.

301
00:19:27.559 --> 00:19:30.880
When Homer and Barter in the kitchen
and he's telling me the question, how

302
00:19:32.039 --> 00:19:36.519
do you wear boxes or briefs?
Nope, nope, always lost on me.

303
00:19:37.240 --> 00:19:41.680
I was like, that's funny.
Great, so many Nope gags like

304
00:19:41.720 --> 00:19:45.160
that are fantastic. I mean,
everyone knows that I love you, Beware

305
00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:49.119
the Eyes of March. That one, that one's almost as good. So

306
00:19:49.319 --> 00:19:52.799
I not that the joke was over
my head. I just never heard that.

307
00:19:53.079 --> 00:19:57.000
Yeah, yeah, it's the one
that it's a throwaway and it's almost

308
00:19:57.079 --> 00:20:02.559
a perfect joke. Oh, it's
so good. And the suicide Notes formally

309
00:20:02.559 --> 00:20:07.799
good vibrations. That is perfect.
But suicide Notes is a great name for

310
00:20:07.839 --> 00:20:11.319
a for a music store. Yeah, it's not that it is, yeah,

311
00:20:11.599 --> 00:20:15.319
for that year, but also formerly
they were walking in there, bright

312
00:20:15.359 --> 00:20:18.119
eyed, pushing tailed. Hey where's
this? You know? Classic? Right?

313
00:20:18.240 --> 00:20:22.559
Yeah, old old oldies. Yeah, it's like, well, I

314
00:20:22.599 --> 00:20:25.359
don't know if you listen to the
radio in your car or if you sometimes

315
00:20:25.480 --> 00:20:30.319
Yeah, but it's there's no more
bracing moment I announced to the oldies stage.

316
00:20:30.359 --> 00:20:33.119
Yeah, yeah, the stuff that
you grew up on is now on

317
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:36.359
great, good times, great,
it's on five are Kings of Leona is

318
00:20:36.400 --> 00:20:37.880
now in the classics, And I'm
like, oh, I guess it's like

319
00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:42.119
that old. Yeah, apparently the
good criteria now is ten years plus.

320
00:20:42.319 --> 00:20:45.200
Okay. I'm like, I don't
think have de find classic or oldies like

321
00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:48.920
ten years. I guess it's old, but I think it used to be

322
00:20:48.960 --> 00:20:51.240
like twenty years to be twenty.
Yeah, it used to be. You

323
00:20:51.279 --> 00:20:52.880
put class Gold one of four point
three's, but isn't a Shaw Gold one

324
00:20:52.880 --> 00:20:56.119
of four point three classic great classic
hits. That's what I whenever I use

325
00:20:56.200 --> 00:21:00.359
that phrase good times, great class
Ye, that's their catch right. Essentially,

326
00:21:00.480 --> 00:21:02.839
it felt like when you put it
on, it was always rolling stones

327
00:21:02.920 --> 00:21:06.200
or beetles or abbro. Now it's
stuff from like mid to late two thousand.

328
00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:08.960
I'm like, oh shit, the
killers are on here. Okay then,

329
00:21:10.359 --> 00:21:12.960
but I also enjoyed just the iconic
used to be with it. And

330
00:21:14.079 --> 00:21:17.279
Homo Siems is smiling politey, But
what else did you enjoy? Yeah,

331
00:21:17.319 --> 00:21:21.519
Homo Simson smiling polity is just an
Ald timer. I think I've got down

332
00:21:22.119 --> 00:21:29.799
boxes and briefs as well. A
really great cut in this episode was you

333
00:21:29.839 --> 00:21:33.119
know Homer when he's finally got the
sort of approval of the crowd and he's

334
00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:37.759
shouting his slow they remember kids don't
trust anybody over thirty and now Bitter Brampton,

335
00:21:41.000 --> 00:21:42.920
very very good. I like the
shout out to the Jim Rose circus,

336
00:21:44.119 --> 00:21:48.359
which people's that's that's essentially the freak
show because that was something that was

337
00:21:48.400 --> 00:21:52.480
that lollapalooza, but also to it
itself. When I was riding for Street

338
00:21:52.519 --> 00:21:56.359
Press interview Jim Rose, this is
baby Yeah. I mean I love how

339
00:21:56.440 --> 00:22:00.279
the guy the sort of the entrepreneur
he calls it. I like you to

340
00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:03.839
be part of my what is it
my page on the trans Mundane it's the

341
00:22:03.839 --> 00:22:08.559
freak trip at his office. But
this is yeah, this guy called Jim

342
00:22:08.680 --> 00:22:12.240
Rose, he essentially set up what
was basically an old time Carnie freak show

343
00:22:12.720 --> 00:22:15.440
where you had guys who were like, you know, they had weights on

344
00:22:15.519 --> 00:22:18.000
them, they had pierced nipples and
they would put like weights on them.

345
00:22:18.680 --> 00:22:22.680
Or people who would you put a
straw up there, a tube up their

346
00:22:22.759 --> 00:22:25.680
nose and dawn it in their stomach
and they would pump a lot of beer

347
00:22:25.759 --> 00:22:30.079
into it and then they'd regurgitate it
and drink it and one things that I'm

348
00:22:30.119 --> 00:22:33.240
sorry I keep pumping up the tires
of this Lollaballoozer documentary, But they show

349
00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:37.599
footage of it where Eddie Vedder and
a couple of others come out on stage.

350
00:22:37.640 --> 00:22:38.319
While they're doing it, it's like, who's going to drink from this?

351
00:22:38.359 --> 00:22:41.319
And anybody was like, I'll take
a step, like, yeah,

352
00:22:41.319 --> 00:22:45.319
I drank the bar. I would
go into a I never forgot it.

353
00:22:45.359 --> 00:22:48.440
It would have been like a maybe
seven eight year old birthday party from school

354
00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:51.359
and one kid put spaghetti up his
nose in at his mouth, has poorn

355
00:22:51.440 --> 00:22:55.480
it. Oh, mortified me.
I've never forgotten that it would just like

356
00:22:56.640 --> 00:23:00.119
this. Yeah, this bar guy
is probably like the least a great he

357
00:23:00.240 --> 00:23:02.240
just of the Jim Row circus,
because you had a guy with like a

358
00:23:02.319 --> 00:23:06.200
Prince Albert piercing and a dick and
he would like put really heavy weights on

359
00:23:06.279 --> 00:23:10.079
it. And I think I don't
know if someone was like hammering nails into

360
00:23:10.160 --> 00:23:14.079
their scroat set. But it was
really transgressive top which is what we were

361
00:23:14.119 --> 00:23:15.480
into in the nineties. We were
like, yeah, let's push some boundaries.

362
00:23:15.519 --> 00:23:19.759
Then it's not that far, not
that far. Yeah, they used

363
00:23:19.759 --> 00:23:25.680
to be with it. Memes just
hilarious. Suicide notes again fantastic. You've

364
00:23:25.720 --> 00:23:29.000
probably got your folder on your laptop
of like you know, just pictures that

365
00:23:29.039 --> 00:23:32.759
you've downloaded for the innet or memes
or whatever downwards folder. Oh absolutely,

366
00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:34.480
And yeah, one that I've got
is home it just got You've got the

367
00:23:34.640 --> 00:23:41.039
sass. You got the sass?
Yeah, which is ja Turkey is a

368
00:23:41.039 --> 00:23:47.680
bad person. Is a bad person, but just you've got to have things

369
00:23:48.119 --> 00:23:52.400
on hand for when someone just is
trying too hard to be cool. You

370
00:23:52.519 --> 00:23:56.680
just throw that got assassin, do
you assassin' it? So, yeah,

371
00:23:56.759 --> 00:24:00.000
something I really love. But there's
gonna be I'm sure there's gonna be more

372
00:24:00.160 --> 00:24:04.799
coming. He found something people about
something. As I said Generation X member,

373
00:24:04.880 --> 00:24:07.599
here is a good line. Like
I thought I had an appetite for

374
00:24:07.680 --> 00:24:15.759
destruction. I just wanted a club
sandwich. That's me. I mean there's

375
00:24:15.880 --> 00:24:18.519
variations on that throughout the episode.
I used to ruck and roll on it

376
00:24:18.640 --> 00:24:22.519
and party every day. Now I
can only find half an hour get party

377
00:24:22.640 --> 00:24:26.599
every day every day. Appetite for
destruction. All I won was a club

378
00:24:26.640 --> 00:24:30.000
sandwhich is the better version of that
for mine? So I like, I

379
00:24:30.160 --> 00:24:34.119
love that a lot. Next question, you there eating the beast. All

380
00:24:34.200 --> 00:24:37.480
right, trivia time. My first
question for you is what is the station

381
00:24:37.559 --> 00:24:41.119
at Homer is listening to? He
is listening to k FSL Fossil one O

382
00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:44.839
three. Yes, what done right? Your faxt question of mine? Who

383
00:24:44.960 --> 00:24:47.960
provides the competent drum work in Grand
Funk Growler, Damn, no, no

384
00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:52.000
idea. It was Don Brewer.
I like the as Grand Funk. You

385
00:24:52.039 --> 00:24:57.480
guys don't know Grand Funk side.
Feel free to cut this outside because this

386
00:24:57.599 --> 00:25:00.400
is well, this is a semi
relate. Listeners to the show will know

387
00:25:00.440 --> 00:25:04.119
that Louise and I love the show
ninety Day Fiance. There's a UK very

388
00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:08.640
end called naetyd Fiance UK. Who
knew but a lot of these people on

389
00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:11.640
this show they're looking for love.
They will go to the Dominican Republic,

390
00:25:11.680 --> 00:25:17.519
which has been abbreviated to the DR. It gets referred to the DR as

391
00:25:17.519 --> 00:25:22.960
a lot. This woman on ninety
Day UK has found the love of her

392
00:25:22.039 --> 00:25:27.119
life in the Dominican Republic and she
says she's off to the dom rep LU

393
00:25:27.160 --> 00:25:33.480
and I looked at it, so
I said that ain't it. She didn't

394
00:25:33.480 --> 00:25:37.400
get the memo she used to be
with it. Now what now what whether

395
00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:41.440
this change they changed what it was? Now? What she's with isn't it?

396
00:25:42.400 --> 00:25:45.200
But it was the lairs that we
both look at her. She means

397
00:25:45.200 --> 00:25:48.680
the dr, the DR, the
dom Rep, the dom Rep. Eh,

398
00:25:49.680 --> 00:25:56.440
his tom is good. Your next
question for me what worthy promotions on

399
00:25:56.519 --> 00:26:03.160
the ticket? Oh? For authentic
refreshment yet Clark bar Clark bars, and

400
00:26:03.400 --> 00:26:08.680
I forgot cloud pass rings. Justin's
Justin's what done? Yeah? Go Jostin's.

401
00:26:11.079 --> 00:26:15.799
The guy behind the counter at Suicide
Notes is reading what magazine? No

402
00:26:15.960 --> 00:26:19.319
idea. It's called Mondo Frown,
which honestly it does sound like the title

403
00:26:19.359 --> 00:26:22.640
of a zine. It does.
Yeah, oh zines? Oh good stuff.

404
00:26:22.720 --> 00:26:29.440
They were the original blog. So
my next question is the blog was

405
00:26:29.480 --> 00:26:33.279
a what you had before podcasts?
What do you get at the vet while

406
00:26:33.319 --> 00:26:37.799
you wait? Oh? Oh god, damn it? Cat detailed, cat

407
00:26:37.880 --> 00:26:42.119
detailing. Yes, do I have
anymore for you? I've got one more.

408
00:26:42.200 --> 00:26:45.039
I'll give it to you. Why
are you looking for one? My

409
00:26:45.119 --> 00:26:48.799
final one is what or where?
Sorry? It? Did Peter Frampton buy

410
00:26:48.839 --> 00:26:53.000
the pig? You got them a
pink Floyd? Yes, I don't think

411
00:26:53.000 --> 00:26:56.759
I've got any more for him because
I had k K F s O L

412
00:26:57.440 --> 00:27:02.720
A F L. Sorry, what's
getting Review of Homer Palouser The visual air

413
00:27:02.799 --> 00:27:07.680
date was May nineteenth, nineteen ninety
six. Written by Brent Forrester and directed

414
00:27:07.720 --> 00:27:11.319
by Wes Archer. The Cashgaer family
enters in a black light haze. Lighting

415
00:27:11.359 --> 00:27:12.519
returns to normal when Homer turns on
the lights. I thought, just the

416
00:27:12.599 --> 00:27:15.920
vibeent it just felt right for this
episode as well. Absolutely it does.

417
00:27:17.039 --> 00:27:18.000
Yeah, yeah, just the sort. It was all like Neon, wasn't

418
00:27:18.000 --> 00:27:22.000
it. Yeah, that whole Clowe
in the dark black light poster deal.

419
00:27:22.160 --> 00:27:25.480
Yeah. This episode kicks off with
Otto he's having a dream about winning the

420
00:27:26.119 --> 00:27:30.039
safety award for bus drivers at the
school district safety Awards. Millhouse wakes him

421
00:27:30.079 --> 00:27:32.880
up. It nearly hits Jasper.
I just thought it's a really fun sequence

422
00:27:33.039 --> 00:27:34.599
where it ends up in the wrecking
yard and it's squashing it as they're running

423
00:27:34.599 --> 00:27:37.039
out. Yeah, it was just
animated really well. Just a cool little

424
00:27:37.039 --> 00:27:41.920
action sequence. Who's good to keep
his secrets and cuts too Marge reading the

425
00:27:41.000 --> 00:27:45.720
letter out loud waiving any legal responsibility
on the school's part in perpetuity for threat

426
00:27:45.720 --> 00:27:49.319
the universe forever. So Homer is
now suggests well, it's gonna be like

427
00:27:49.359 --> 00:27:55.079
a road trip to school with your
dad, and it kind of comes out

428
00:27:55.119 --> 00:27:57.119
of nowhere. But I guess they
need to establish early. You can't waste

429
00:27:57.160 --> 00:28:02.480
time of Homer becoming uncoollsh home it's
just uncol And I guess at that age

430
00:28:02.519 --> 00:28:04.680
your parents is always uncol aren't They
are the idea of a roach it with

431
00:28:04.759 --> 00:28:08.640
your dad. Yeah, not really
not really working. And it's the I

432
00:28:08.680 --> 00:28:11.759
think it's the enthusiasm home has for
it too. It's like, ah,

433
00:28:11.920 --> 00:28:15.759
you're a little too eager for this. I've certainly had times when I've had

434
00:28:15.799 --> 00:28:19.359
to pick up lose kids from either
from school or from their work, particularly

435
00:28:19.559 --> 00:28:23.759
Lo's daughter who's a teenage girl who's
just got no time for mum's uncle boyfriends.

436
00:28:25.279 --> 00:28:33.000
I don't know this guy, stranger
danger Amber alert. But I think

437
00:28:33.039 --> 00:28:34.920
the first couple of times I was
like, I'll make conversation and all of

438
00:28:34.920 --> 00:28:37.720
a sudden, it's nice way for
it to get to know each other.

439
00:28:37.839 --> 00:28:41.720
Now it's just like, how's work? Cool? All right? No more

440
00:28:41.759 --> 00:28:45.160
words until your phone comes out?
Oh yeah, absolutely for the fifteen minute

441
00:28:45.240 --> 00:28:49.119
drive home. So this is the
way it is. No I can I

442
00:28:49.200 --> 00:28:52.400
can imagine and that's understandable as well. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

443
00:28:52.519 --> 00:28:56.079
Man. For a while I was
like, I'm not like, oh,

444
00:28:56.119 --> 00:28:57.000
we're going to be best buddies.
But you know, this is a

445
00:28:57.079 --> 00:29:00.400
nice way to break the ice.
Like, no, this is breaking the

446
00:29:00.440 --> 00:29:03.599
eyes. It probably is better that
you can just becomfortable sitting in the car

447
00:29:03.720 --> 00:29:07.359
like that. Oh yeah yeah,
but he brings up those rainbow suspenders are

448
00:29:07.480 --> 00:29:11.759
cool way to keep your pants up. But my favorite part about this whole

449
00:29:11.880 --> 00:29:17.720
sequence was but continuing nervousness of going
Dad, Dad, that Dad. You

450
00:29:17.759 --> 00:29:18.920
can see, Oh, he's gonna
say something that's going to really embarrass me.

451
00:29:19.079 --> 00:29:22.759
But then he tries to teach me
how to say jive. Oh see

452
00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:26.319
these kids now with jive printed on
their shirts. Now I can teach you

453
00:29:26.400 --> 00:29:30.720
how you're supposed to say jive.
Dad. Please just drive the car,

454
00:29:30.839 --> 00:29:34.559
Dad, I'm watching the road,
sweetie. You Jeff Turkey, See,

455
00:29:36.000 --> 00:29:40.880
you got to assess it. Quit
javing me, Turkey, You got to

456
00:29:40.920 --> 00:29:45.640
assesss it. Turkey is a band
brutude. Then he puts on the radio

457
00:29:45.400 --> 00:29:51.880
and the station is now for playing
Abbato Zeppelin and the Comma Lid. Yes,

458
00:29:52.119 --> 00:29:55.359
they put on puts on the track
and Nelson's just like you tell me

459
00:29:55.480 --> 00:29:56.599
time, So he gets me house
to say he change the station, and

460
00:29:56.680 --> 00:30:00.799
home is just disgusted. Then they
don't know. You guys don't know Grand

461
00:30:00.839 --> 00:30:03.640
Funk and the way he details every
every person brings their own little element to

462
00:30:03.680 --> 00:30:07.279
the band. More information can set
you school Ybrary another way of showing these

463
00:30:07.279 --> 00:30:10.880
out of touch. I guess in
nineteen ninety six, I guess the library

464
00:30:10.880 --> 00:30:11.960
is still library. Still question.
Yeah, yeah we have the internet,

465
00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:15.000
Yeah, yeah, it's true.
The next day have it, but yeah

466
00:30:15.000 --> 00:30:18.559
it's not as yeah not the go
to yeh in ninety six? Do we

467
00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:22.200
really the kids was accessible in ninety
sixty incident? Did everyone have ourahome computer

468
00:30:22.240 --> 00:30:25.480
with the incident? Oh? I
don't think so, but betting Carter and

469
00:30:25.559 --> 00:30:30.519
Cyclopedia correct. Next day though,
Homer is he's playing Mississippi Queen and he

470
00:30:30.640 --> 00:30:33.920
says, yeah, you know,
you notice for a good song sometimes no,

471
00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:37.279
no, no, don't start the
rocket. But he's trying to help

472
00:30:37.319 --> 00:30:41.680
in terms of like, well these
guys led to Jeffers air Plane, which

473
00:30:41.720 --> 00:30:44.839
then provided the lift up for Jefferson
Starship. He's trying to help, but

474
00:30:44.880 --> 00:30:48.440
he's also trying to make himself feel
Oh yeah, he's well cool, Yeah,

475
00:30:48.640 --> 00:30:52.960
this is real credible stuff. Yeah. Everyone feels like they're passing on

476
00:30:52.039 --> 00:30:56.599
the wisdom, and in a way
they are, because it's like, well

477
00:30:56.079 --> 00:30:59.599
whatever, you're an ever an elder
person who went to Ford, right,

478
00:30:59.720 --> 00:31:02.279
whatever. They'd be telling me things. I always listen because I'm like,

479
00:31:02.720 --> 00:31:04.319
these guys have waited for thirty years. They know what's up. So I'm

480
00:31:04.400 --> 00:31:07.839
just a dumb fucking kid. Yeah, And I mean even with culture,

481
00:31:07.880 --> 00:31:10.279
I mean, sure, you've got
to have your ownership of the stuff that's

482
00:31:10.400 --> 00:31:12.200
yours. Yeah, of your era. But I think as you get a

483
00:31:12.240 --> 00:31:15.000
little bit further down the line,
maybe just a year or two, you

484
00:31:15.079 --> 00:31:19.680
realize, oh, well there wouldn't
be this without that, So maybe I

485
00:31:19.680 --> 00:31:22.240
should listen to that and find out
where it came from. Well maybe I'm

486
00:31:22.279 --> 00:31:26.400
just an outliwer and a big old
nerd. They would make fun of me

487
00:31:26.440 --> 00:31:29.000
for doing my podcast or what's this
super Simpsons thing you do? And I'm

488
00:31:29.000 --> 00:31:34.359
like, have fun stacking car parts
forever, buddy or not? May be?

489
00:31:34.839 --> 00:31:40.039
But Bart says this is here related, but says you embarrassed me.

490
00:31:40.119 --> 00:31:44.200
No, I'm not. I dread
the moment where I embarrass my kids but

491
00:31:44.319 --> 00:31:47.240
I don't realize that I am.
It's like, oh no, officially I'm

492
00:31:47.279 --> 00:31:49.119
that guy. But but then yells
at him, so I'm just trying to

493
00:31:49.160 --> 00:31:52.640
party with you. Guys. You
actually feel really sorry for homing you,

494
00:31:52.680 --> 00:31:55.640
don't you. Yeah, so he
says, you know, they say they

495
00:31:55.680 --> 00:31:56.720
wouldn't party with you if you'd a
last out on Earth, which I thought

496
00:31:56.799 --> 00:32:00.160
was a bit harsh. But then
Hope and then goes to suicide. It's

497
00:32:00.160 --> 00:32:04.559
formally good Vibrations and I'm asked for
let's release from uh Bread? Is it?

498
00:32:04.720 --> 00:32:07.519
Oh? Yeah, yeah, it's
in the oldies Holdies? Where can

499
00:32:07.559 --> 00:32:12.319
I find the latest releases by Bread? Oldies Holdies? But you've got all

500
00:32:12.400 --> 00:32:15.599
the top bands in here sticks.
I just heard them on the King Biscuit

501
00:32:15.680 --> 00:32:21.799
Flower Hour. Now here are some
of your no name bands. Sonic Youth,

502
00:32:22.359 --> 00:32:28.559
nine Inch Nails. Hallabalooza Hollabaloosa is
a music festival, the greatest music

503
00:32:28.599 --> 00:32:31.279
festival of all time. There can
only be one truly great music festival a

504
00:32:31.359 --> 00:32:37.240
lifetime, and it's the US Festival, the What Festival, the Art Festival.

505
00:32:37.440 --> 00:32:42.960
Geez It was sponsored by that guy
from Apple Computers. What Computers.

506
00:32:44.359 --> 00:32:46.839
This is a data joke. A
joke that doesn't make sense now sponsored by

507
00:32:46.960 --> 00:32:52.480
what computers. It's like Apple runs
the world now, but there was a

508
00:32:52.559 --> 00:32:55.599
time where it didn't. Eh,
it's crazy to think that Apple in ninety

509
00:32:55.640 --> 00:33:00.200
six was seen as like the dying
Oh absolutely, the old fashion one.

510
00:33:00.240 --> 00:33:01.319
Yeah, one thing I really liked
as well. I mean I talked about

511
00:33:01.359 --> 00:33:06.240
how this is sort of very representative
Generation X, but that whole kind of

512
00:33:06.319 --> 00:33:10.119
voice yeah, and passionizing, smart
ass tone. Yeah, and I'm just

513
00:33:10.200 --> 00:33:14.440
talking to you, you know.
It was like, oh, but as

514
00:33:14.480 --> 00:33:15.759
a generation exer, I'm like,
my boy never talk like that, And

515
00:33:16.519 --> 00:33:20.279
now thinking that's how Zoomer's talk.
Yes, it's like, oh no,

516
00:33:20.880 --> 00:33:23.039
every young every young generation sort of
goes, don't you go get it all

517
00:33:23.119 --> 00:33:29.160
man, and has the flashback here
that this is arguably the most relatable moment

518
00:33:29.200 --> 00:33:30.319
in the history of the Simpsons.
I think with that, it'll happen to

519
00:33:30.359 --> 00:33:36.000
you. Oh, you'll make me
feel like dancing. I want to dance

520
00:33:36.039 --> 00:33:38.200
a mat of way. What the
hell are you two doing? That's cold

521
00:33:38.440 --> 00:33:44.079
rocking out. You wouldn't understand dead
You're not with it. I used to

522
00:33:44.160 --> 00:33:47.000
be with it, but then they
changed what it was. Now what I'm

523
00:33:47.079 --> 00:33:51.799
with, isn't it? And what's
it? Seems weird and scary to me.

524
00:33:52.359 --> 00:33:57.440
It'll happen to you. Everyone will
experience this in their life, and

525
00:33:57.599 --> 00:33:59.839
I just don't think it can be
sort of summed up in words anymore.

526
00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:02.119
Then what happens in this moment?
Yeah, I think I might have been

527
00:34:02.160 --> 00:34:06.920
mixing up this and Buzz Colder as
well, because there is this. Is

528
00:34:06.960 --> 00:34:08.480
there a similar thing with buzz Coler
No, I don't know about buzz coll

529
00:34:08.599 --> 00:34:13.280
Oh. Grandpa tries to be Yeah, he tries to be with it and

530
00:34:13.440 --> 00:34:17.119
he's like, uh, he tries
to like I'm cool and he's running a

531
00:34:17.119 --> 00:34:20.960
bike and he falls off. Maybe
he also drinks buzz. The bubbles are

532
00:34:21.039 --> 00:34:24.039
killing. This is a different This
is completely level, but just let us

533
00:34:24.079 --> 00:34:27.519
break it down. I used to
be with it, but then they change

534
00:34:27.519 --> 00:34:30.880
what it was like that that then
they changed what it was. Now what

535
00:34:30.960 --> 00:34:32.079
I'm with, isn't it? And
what it is? Weird and scary?

536
00:34:32.119 --> 00:34:37.840
To me? It's like that is
just life. You can't say anything just

537
00:34:37.519 --> 00:34:42.440
changing what it was. Whoever wrote
that one line is a genius. I

538
00:34:42.519 --> 00:34:45.519
absolutely love that. But of course, you know, being young and dumb,

539
00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:49.599
we're gonna rock on Forever. I
also appreciated the fact that they're singing

540
00:34:49.679 --> 00:34:57.159
Leo Sayer, but we also get
the I think actually we have skipped ahead

541
00:34:57.159 --> 00:35:00.079
a bit first, be before that
they'll be a second basement Bill. What

542
00:35:00.119 --> 00:35:04.119
I really appreciated the most about this
was the animation of the strobe blinding being

543
00:35:04.239 --> 00:35:07.000
used to full effect here, of
him getting closer and closer and then nope,

544
00:35:08.360 --> 00:35:10.800
just coming to further, further and
further back to the start again.

545
00:35:12.159 --> 00:35:15.800
Beautiful animation. Yeah, it's great
when Yeah, there used to be sort

546
00:35:15.800 --> 00:35:19.480
of terrific visual gags like this as
well. Yeah, so so great.

547
00:35:20.400 --> 00:35:22.960
So now this is what we get
that it'll happen to you, And we

548
00:35:22.079 --> 00:35:25.159
get the transition to him looking in
the mirror saying forever forever. Now he's

549
00:35:25.320 --> 00:35:29.599
fat, bold, and feeling like
he's he's out of touch, he tells

550
00:35:29.639 --> 00:35:32.679
Marjor he feels old and march so
much. Music store has always been crazy

551
00:35:32.719 --> 00:35:37.639
to me. Music's none of my
business. I feel like I was kind

552
00:35:37.679 --> 00:35:40.000
of in this moment recently where it's
like I'm sending to get out of this

553
00:35:40.119 --> 00:35:44.239
rut. I felt like just doing
the same shit over and over again.

554
00:35:44.559 --> 00:35:46.519
Wake Up, here's the school do
the same shows. That's why we're starting

555
00:35:46.760 --> 00:35:50.599
the pilot podcast something fresh, shaking
it up a bit, and he needs

556
00:35:50.639 --> 00:35:52.599
to get out of this rut.
So Marge says, you need to include

557
00:35:52.599 --> 00:35:54.199
button Lisa, if you do this
please, So then we cut to the

558
00:35:54.280 --> 00:35:58.199
next day and he's driving to pick
up the kids, but you straight past

559
00:35:58.239 --> 00:36:02.440
millhouse. My Mom'll got me the
other end. You know what's great about

560
00:36:02.480 --> 00:36:06.880
that is that they didn't have to
set it up previously. It's just you

561
00:36:06.920 --> 00:36:13.400
can imagine what the conversation will you
smell? And they find the tickets in

562
00:36:13.440 --> 00:36:16.199
the glove box easy authenticator spots and
Home is very, very excited, and

563
00:36:16.280 --> 00:36:20.679
they're kind of like, okay,
well we're gonna go to Lolla Losers.

564
00:36:20.960 --> 00:36:28.280
So is it yes, because it's
got Homo Pollo. It's actually Lola's Hulla

565
00:36:28.320 --> 00:36:30.719
Balooes. It's so confusi. But
they're on their way to Capital City,

566
00:36:30.800 --> 00:36:34.639
which is thirty miles away. So
they arrived though. You get a free

567
00:36:34.719 --> 00:36:38.159
nose piercing with every admission, and
it's like Woodstock with advertisements everywhere and tons

568
00:36:38.199 --> 00:36:42.840
of security guards and they throw out
Mackey throw at everything, which apparently was

569
00:36:42.840 --> 00:36:45.960
something that one of the writers experience
when you went the threat to throw at

570
00:36:45.960 --> 00:36:49.440
his homemade make allure, but yeah, throw it at the cameras, any

571
00:36:49.519 --> 00:36:52.559
forms of ID throw them in the
bin, please Generation X. They may

572
00:36:52.599 --> 00:36:55.239
be show, but at least that
tolerant and respect all people. And we

573
00:36:55.280 --> 00:37:00.519
get the freak Show, and we
introduced to Cypress Hill and they're about to

574
00:37:00.519 --> 00:37:02.800
sing this one of those songs,
but there's a lost child within an hour

575
00:37:02.800 --> 00:37:07.679
and become a property of Blockbuster Entertainment. Blockbuster yeah, gone, yeah,

576
00:37:07.960 --> 00:37:10.000
yeah, that was that what they
were referring to, was that Blockbuster Entertainment.

577
00:37:10.079 --> 00:37:15.960
Yes, but then smells he smells
something his jacket. There was another

578
00:37:16.039 --> 00:37:19.840
gag they used on The Simpsons.
I believe that smells like the teacher's room.

579
00:37:19.960 --> 00:37:22.719
Is that? Yeah, similar kind
of vibe hom and then buys his

580
00:37:22.480 --> 00:37:30.480
restafarian hat. Did karma karma karma? Oh? I get it. The

581
00:37:30.559 --> 00:37:34.519
way that guy says karma always annoyed
me. I'm like, I know what

582
00:37:34.639 --> 00:37:38.000
it is is karma karma And I'm
like, funk off, you didn't do

583
00:37:38.039 --> 00:37:43.199
anything. I'm already paying these.
You get to a festival, prices are

584
00:37:43.199 --> 00:37:45.400
already through the ring. Oh they
get it. Tips at a festival,

585
00:37:45.440 --> 00:37:49.360
completely extortionate. Yeah, so kids
say you can't wear that, but he's

586
00:37:49.360 --> 00:37:52.599
too cool for this planet. Badge
a strut, which was from what we're

587
00:37:52.679 --> 00:37:55.079
saying, fabulous fairy Freak Brothers.
I don't think is an our Crumb cartoon.

588
00:37:55.360 --> 00:37:58.840
Was that a take off of when
they did the Itching Scrutchy cartoon for

589
00:37:58.880 --> 00:38:00.920
adults? Was that what that was? Yeah, a similar vibe with him

590
00:38:00.960 --> 00:38:06.760
walking I'm cool baby. Yeah,
well I don't have Chrumin's responsible. Oh

591
00:38:06.840 --> 00:38:08.280
no, that's rough. Back in
Fritz the Cat, which the cat was

592
00:38:08.320 --> 00:38:15.360
what it was? Yeah, Like
the tagline says it's X rated and animated,

593
00:38:15.079 --> 00:38:19.880
let the kids watch it. What
was the X rated Muppets? Was

594
00:38:19.920 --> 00:38:23.519
it the Mupets or something that feebles
feebles Peter Jackson, Yeah, I'm hiring

595
00:38:23.519 --> 00:38:30.719
it as a kid, going,
oh my, your video store clerk was

596
00:38:30.760 --> 00:38:34.239
derelict in his duty that day.
Yes, he was a good dude.

597
00:38:35.719 --> 00:38:40.679
You high species. The video store
guy, Chris absolute legend because whenever I

598
00:38:40.719 --> 00:38:44.079
would hire a movie that I knew
Mum wouldn't let me. I put it

599
00:38:44.119 --> 00:38:45.440
in the middle of the pile and
you see Chris looking at you and go,

600
00:38:46.039 --> 00:38:50.360
look at me. Put it through
and I'm like, what a what

601
00:38:50.519 --> 00:38:52.480
a lord? He knew all I
was supposed to be watching this, but

602
00:38:52.599 --> 00:38:55.199
He's like, fucking go for it. This is what Generation X for all

603
00:38:55.280 --> 00:39:00.360
Man. You could make a make
a decent living being a goddamn video They

604
00:39:00.400 --> 00:39:02.760
were the coolest people in the world
to me. People that for me as

605
00:39:02.800 --> 00:39:07.840
a kid was the dream. It
was on a video store and a books

606
00:39:07.440 --> 00:39:10.599
on a record store, yeah,
a rental store. Just felt like you

607
00:39:10.679 --> 00:39:14.719
were the coolest person in the world
to me because you knew all about the

608
00:39:14.760 --> 00:39:20.320
movies. You just legends. You
know you didn't. You wouldn't necessarily had

609
00:39:20.360 --> 00:39:22.480
to make a huge living. But
I can make my rent and you know

610
00:39:23.320 --> 00:39:25.800
you bag at the end of the
week. I'm happy. And I would

611
00:39:25.840 --> 00:39:28.639
go there and I would hang out
like an hour. You didn't tell me

612
00:39:28.679 --> 00:39:30.360
to leave. You just you'd make
small small talk with me. Yeah,

613
00:39:30.559 --> 00:39:32.960
and you know you could get your
own term. Just reading the back of

614
00:39:34.000 --> 00:39:37.079
the covers, Oh my god,
what a time. Look at this cover

615
00:39:37.159 --> 00:39:42.519
for Kreeberzoids. I really want to
go check out video Land that displayed yesterday

616
00:39:43.519 --> 00:39:45.400
was up in Melbourne where if you
haven't if you live in near Melbourne,

617
00:39:45.920 --> 00:39:52.119
in Australia check out video Land.
So basically the guy for an exhibition has

618
00:39:52.800 --> 00:39:55.719
the theme is joy and he says
the most joyous thing for him was video

619
00:39:55.760 --> 00:40:00.440
stores and the feeling of being in
a video store, and his got like

620
00:40:00.559 --> 00:40:02.599
hundreds. It looks like a video
stores video land. It's a custom car

621
00:40:02.719 --> 00:40:07.199
park, carpet. Sorry, posters
on the wall, box old sr T

622
00:40:08.079 --> 00:40:13.280
TVs. The old boxing, whatever
it is with with commercials playing, it's

623
00:40:13.360 --> 00:40:15.280
just I want to go there,
I want to go. What do you

624
00:40:15.360 --> 00:40:17.599
What would you say is the smell
of a video store? What's the one?

625
00:40:17.679 --> 00:40:22.039
What's the smell for you? How
would you define the smell? Because

626
00:40:22.079 --> 00:40:23.159
you can smell it when you think
of a videos, so you can smell

627
00:40:23.199 --> 00:40:25.400
it, But how would you describe
the smell of a video It's kind of

628
00:40:25.719 --> 00:40:31.760
it's kind of neutral with a slight
well I mean plastic, yeah, covers,

629
00:40:31.840 --> 00:40:38.360
slightly disinfectant. Yeah, the tapes. Yeah, it's an inter requestion

630
00:40:38.400 --> 00:40:42.760
because I think if you're talking about
to say, like a video easy or

631
00:40:42.760 --> 00:40:45.599
a Blockbuster. Yeah, it's a
little more clinical and a little more corporate.

632
00:40:46.159 --> 00:40:50.119
But yeah, indie ones are a
bit so as like a wardrobe.

633
00:40:50.440 --> 00:40:52.679
Yeah, it's a little a little
musty, yeah, maybe a sort of

634
00:40:52.719 --> 00:40:57.280
a slight tinger of cigarette smoke because
someone's gone out back for a dark couple

635
00:40:57.320 --> 00:41:00.079
of faded posters on the wall.
Correct, what a time? What?

636
00:41:04.280 --> 00:41:07.119
But yes, So they're at there
at the festival and Home is now being

637
00:41:07.159 --> 00:41:09.039
called a narc hate crime, hate
crime, and he gets tossed out.

638
00:41:09.480 --> 00:41:14.639
Then it's a Smashing Pumpkins playing your
song that you love playing zero, and

639
00:41:15.280 --> 00:41:19.639
the teens are dancing in their zombie
dance that they're enjoying themselves, maybe ablee,

640
00:41:19.679 --> 00:41:22.559
but they're really getting to the crowd
home that doesn't understand. Why am

641
00:41:22.599 --> 00:41:24.280
I cool? I don't understand.
Maybe I just am He's lost, now

642
00:41:24.519 --> 00:41:28.920
kicks the balloon gun pick Peter Friendom's
pig comes out, boom, hits him

643
00:41:28.920 --> 00:41:30.840
in the guts and I was just
him of the guts. Now it does.

644
00:41:31.079 --> 00:41:32.719
They were hitting the guts and he's
okay if I'm like, oh my

645
00:41:32.760 --> 00:41:35.840
god, I can't believe it.
And then the guy with the pageant of

646
00:41:35.880 --> 00:41:42.840
the transmandine the fiction probably not a
shout out or an unexpected connection, but

647
00:41:43.400 --> 00:41:46.840
I don't go. Oh, it's
a bit sort of mored Flanders vibes,

648
00:41:47.000 --> 00:41:50.679
which oh yeah, that came after
this of course. Yeah, yeah,

649
00:41:50.760 --> 00:41:53.119
yep, But so he wants having
to be that I want you to be

650
00:41:53.400 --> 00:41:57.280
that fatso and he wants him to
get shot with the cannon. Marge is

651
00:41:57.320 --> 00:42:00.880
not impressed at all. So I
don't think I always this here again.

652
00:42:02.039 --> 00:42:07.840
So you want to go on tour
with a traveling freak show. I don't

653
00:42:07.880 --> 00:42:09.360
think I have a choice, March. Of course I'll have a choice.

654
00:42:09.719 --> 00:42:13.400
How do you figure you don't have
to join a freak show just because the

655
00:42:13.480 --> 00:42:16.800
opportunity came along, you know,
our March. In some ways you and

656
00:42:16.920 --> 00:42:21.480
I are very different people. I
don't remember this scene, but it was

657
00:42:21.519 --> 00:42:22.400
just so funny. It says like
I don't have of course you do.

658
00:42:23.239 --> 00:42:27.760
In some way, you and I, it's very different people love that.

659
00:42:27.880 --> 00:42:30.639
Yeah when you that strikes me as
like the best possible version of like a

660
00:42:30.719 --> 00:42:36.559
Homer and Marge's not disagreement, not
fighting. Yeah, or there weree times

661
00:42:36.599 --> 00:42:38.400
when home is kind of like I've
got to do this, yeah, actively

662
00:42:38.559 --> 00:42:42.519
sort of loathing towards March though,
when she's when when they're not on the

663
00:42:42.559 --> 00:42:45.760
same page, Yeah, and this
like sometimes we just very feel like we're

664
00:42:45.840 --> 00:42:52.400
very different people. I like it
when he's sort of snooty or he feels

665
00:42:52.440 --> 00:42:53.519
like he's got the upper hand in
the way. It's also a good way

666
00:42:53.559 --> 00:42:57.400
of just justifying why he's going to
do this as well, I've got to

667
00:42:57.400 --> 00:43:01.360
do it, and it's true.
Ninety six get invited to go on is

668
00:43:01.400 --> 00:43:04.760
traveling Lola Blues and Festival? You're
doing it? Oh god? Yeah.

669
00:43:05.639 --> 00:43:08.920
So now we're at the at Raleigh
Durham. I believe it's pronounced sure at

670
00:43:09.000 --> 00:43:14.760
Rally Rally Rally Durham. Yeah,
at a new event for Lola Bloeser.

671
00:43:15.320 --> 00:43:17.360
It's a Holod Blueser. Sorry,
homers into it, but you know,

672
00:43:17.559 --> 00:43:22.119
he's very, very nervous. Is
everybody good? And he gets shot and

673
00:43:22.239 --> 00:43:25.159
we get the famous slow mo of
the cannon hitting the man. Yeah.

674
00:43:25.280 --> 00:43:28.719
Now this is a bit of a
pop culture I think the name of the

675
00:43:29.199 --> 00:43:34.199
actual guy Frank Marshall. Let's look
it up. There will be references on

676
00:43:34.480 --> 00:43:37.039
the cutter references. So yeah,
Frank cannon Ball, Richard's Richards. Yes.

677
00:43:37.199 --> 00:43:39.960
Now, I was wondering where i'd
seen that picture, and of course

678
00:43:40.000 --> 00:43:44.119
it's been around river, but it
was I think the main reason I remember

679
00:43:44.159 --> 00:43:46.960
it. It was on the cover
of Van Halen three. Oh okay was

680
00:43:47.000 --> 00:43:50.719
it really yeah? Released in nineteen
ninety eight. Rightly, by the way,

681
00:43:50.800 --> 00:43:54.280
Dazing Confused was the van and the
opening album version of Prince's song nine

682
00:43:54.320 --> 00:43:58.039
Times in nine was where They're talking
shoes is based on Okay, yeah,

683
00:43:58.199 --> 00:44:00.559
so yeah, so he's been shot
with the cannon everyone thinks. Everyone's a

684
00:44:00.599 --> 00:44:01.599
huge fan of it. I don't
know if I could wash this, could

685
00:44:01.599 --> 00:44:05.239
you wash this the guy getting shot
with the cannon ball, I'll be like,

686
00:44:05.320 --> 00:44:07.280
I don't know, I'm like,
ugh, this has thezars are written

687
00:44:07.320 --> 00:44:12.280
all over it does certainly, and
the fact that they've gone from the inflatable

688
00:44:12.320 --> 00:44:15.599
pig to an actual cannonball, I
don't know. But then, like I

689
00:44:15.639 --> 00:44:19.840
said, I we went we went
crazy for the gym Rows circus and that

690
00:44:19.960 --> 00:44:22.719
was just, you know, some
pretty gross stuff. Yeah, okay,

691
00:44:22.880 --> 00:44:24.360
Well he signs the cannon ball for
the kid. He's famous. Now does

692
00:44:24.400 --> 00:44:28.079
they stay in school or something something
like that. But Billy Corgan now introduced

693
00:44:28.119 --> 00:44:31.519
him smiff and we get the iconic
smiling politely. Yeah. I got to

694
00:44:31.519 --> 00:44:36.039
think you're gloomy music stop my kids
from jimming or a future they can't possibly

695
00:44:36.320 --> 00:44:38.719
provide see now this, that's that's
great. That feels as fresh as tomorrow.

696
00:44:39.440 --> 00:44:45.079
It really does, doesn't it.
I think things just keep getting more

697
00:44:45.079 --> 00:44:47.239
and more expensive. Well, our
wages go up, but shit always feels

698
00:44:47.239 --> 00:44:50.320
like it's just getting more and more
expensive, doesn't it. Absolutely, But

699
00:44:50.360 --> 00:44:53.159
for him to say this in ninety
six, yeah, oh wait a minute,

700
00:44:53.559 --> 00:44:58.199
it's still relevant in twenty four yep. But then reads the letter from

701
00:44:58.239 --> 00:45:00.760
home A home is telling detailing his
his his trip away, and they're driving

702
00:45:00.840 --> 00:45:04.880
on the bus. They go to
Cleveland, Cincinnati, turn around and don't

703
00:45:04.880 --> 00:45:07.599
go to either of them. Sometimes
you get a message cross as well.

704
00:45:07.639 --> 00:45:09.400
He's got no litter written on his
stomach. Then he's tacking in to the

705
00:45:09.440 --> 00:45:13.920
spirit of the self destruction, which
is the rock and roll lifestyle. And

706
00:45:14.039 --> 00:45:17.280
Astragon behind the bus with Fryan Pansy
frying pans for skis. Oh, here

707
00:45:17.360 --> 00:45:22.320
comes that cannon ball guy. He's
cool, you mean, sarcastic, dude,

708
00:45:23.199 --> 00:45:27.599
I don't even know anymore. That's
a pretty good way of summing up

709
00:45:27.639 --> 00:45:30.079
this generation pretty much. I think. I don't think you know anymore.

710
00:45:30.239 --> 00:45:34.119
I think, yeah, even back
in ninety six, when being a generation

711
00:45:34.239 --> 00:45:36.400
extra, I was like, yeah, they got out number is they don't

712
00:45:36.400 --> 00:45:38.920
trust anyone over thirty or twenty.
It's not trusting anyone over thirty, which

713
00:45:39.000 --> 00:45:44.280
was very much as hippies. And
then Peter Frampton, Now what was with

714
00:45:44.360 --> 00:45:45.719
the I know they explained the commentary. I forgot to watch it. With

715
00:45:45.760 --> 00:45:49.639
the commentary, he does the weird
dance as he gets he strums the catan

716
00:45:49.719 --> 00:45:52.119
does like the yeah, I don't
know, it's a weird thing. Yeah,

717
00:45:52.559 --> 00:45:53.360
I know there is a thing.
Nan I would have discussed it when

718
00:45:53.360 --> 00:45:57.360
I did the review years ago,
but anyway, tuned into that one may

719
00:45:57.400 --> 00:46:01.360
yeah, smashing pumpkins. Then about
Springfield, like what's it like? And

720
00:46:01.559 --> 00:46:05.039
you know they all mentioned how that
they were all freaks as well. You

721
00:46:05.079 --> 00:46:07.960
know, she's part of the Audio
Visual Club. And Home was like I

722
00:46:07.000 --> 00:46:12.599
got kicked out because my political leads
and I'm slim projectives home and drix the

723
00:46:12.639 --> 00:46:15.039
beer though, and his stomach starts
making weird sounds and they're not, like,

724
00:46:15.159 --> 00:46:17.599
that's not right. So I'm gonna
look after You're gonna send you to

725
00:46:17.639 --> 00:46:22.280
a vet. Then the vet basically
says, you know, if you keep

726
00:46:22.320 --> 00:46:24.199
doing this, you're going to die, and Home's like not not have any

727
00:46:24.239 --> 00:46:29.559
man by the way got any messages
for Jimy Hendrix up your dog Hendrix.

728
00:46:29.760 --> 00:46:32.920
So Bart is now asking questions to
Homer. Homan doesn't really know why he

729
00:46:32.960 --> 00:46:36.679
could comes back home new because they've
done in the Springfield shown next, and

730
00:46:36.760 --> 00:46:38.159
turns out for a report the person
I admired the most. It was a

731
00:46:38.239 --> 00:46:42.400
very sweet moment, was like,
but then he eats the pie and he's

732
00:46:42.440 --> 00:46:45.639
getting the stomach sounds as well.
It's almost like, Okay, I'm now

733
00:46:45.679 --> 00:46:47.599
the person that my son admires the
most. So Cash twenty two. He

734
00:46:47.679 --> 00:46:51.199
loves me because I'm doing this,
but also I want to be around for

735
00:46:51.320 --> 00:46:52.400
him if I do this, It's
like, what do I do? What's

736
00:46:52.400 --> 00:46:55.039
the best decision here? At what
cost? Yeah, And he makes the

737
00:46:55.119 --> 00:46:58.440
right decision in the end, obviously
be rare for his family. But they

738
00:46:58.440 --> 00:47:00.760
all arrive at the fairgrounds. Homer
is now the pride of Springfield. He's

739
00:47:00.760 --> 00:47:05.119
got the billboard there. Marge is
really excited. Last time she was backstage

740
00:47:05.239 --> 00:47:07.400
went but with his pants at the
Christmas play and be real Cypress Hill.

741
00:47:08.960 --> 00:47:13.000
This is where we get the iconic
London Symphony Orchestra. This episode had a

742
00:47:13.039 --> 00:47:16.519
lot of iconic moments. Yeah,
it's so so great. But yeah,

743
00:47:16.559 --> 00:47:21.360
possibly while high Cypress Hill, look
in your direction and as you were saying

744
00:47:21.400 --> 00:47:27.000
earlier, the whole let's go for
it. What not? Hey man,

745
00:47:27.159 --> 00:47:30.000
we order an orchestra? What's up
with this orchestra? Where'd orchestra come from?

746
00:47:30.079 --> 00:47:32.400
I don't know, man, I
didn't tell me about this. Man

747
00:47:34.800 --> 00:47:37.599
do something? Oh yeah, yeah, we think we did. Uh do

748
00:47:37.679 --> 00:47:43.760
you know what's saying in the brain? We mostly no classical, but we

749
00:47:43.800 --> 00:47:58.920
could give it a shot. Marges. Now, this, I like,

750
00:47:59.239 --> 00:48:00.559
is the perfect way to some up
that that music. I think I just

751
00:48:00.599 --> 00:48:04.639
thought it was sounded so it was
like you never picked these two things to

752
00:48:04.719 --> 00:48:09.199
blend together like that. But they
there's magic Peter Frampton know he's playing his

753
00:48:09.280 --> 00:48:13.119
songs and oh man, that guy's
guitar is talking, and my shoes are

754
00:48:13.159 --> 00:48:15.519
talking too, And I don't like
the apparently the video clip for ninty nine

755
00:48:15.599 --> 00:48:19.039
or something. I don't know.
Yeah, I've been I don't to consider

756
00:48:19.039 --> 00:48:20.960
themself a bit of a Prince fan, but I'm not sure I remember that.

757
00:48:21.039 --> 00:48:22.880
I mean from I don't know if
it's from the song so much as

758
00:48:22.920 --> 00:48:25.440
the album nineteen ninety nine. It
says here so when was it? When

759
00:48:25.559 --> 00:48:30.800
was the album? So it says
here Otto's drug induice hallucination of his Talking

760
00:48:30.840 --> 00:48:35.159
Shoes is based on the opening of
the album version of Prince's song nineteen ninety

761
00:48:35.280 --> 00:48:38.159
nine, Oh I think that.
Yeah, it doesn't sound with don't worry

762
00:48:39.199 --> 00:48:44.000
everything is oh that bit? Yes, yeah, okay, it's a bit

763
00:48:44.039 --> 00:48:45.679
of a long bird. I really
I wouldn't have made that connection if I

764
00:48:45.760 --> 00:48:51.719
hadn't really got Wikipedia, which never
lies. Of course not. But this

765
00:48:51.880 --> 00:48:57.119
is where the pet doesn't work,
because it's just I was fucked it up.

766
00:48:57.320 --> 00:49:00.760
But before that we actually get Burns
mentioned that he's bought Ticketmaster surcharges again

767
00:49:00.840 --> 00:49:05.760
relevant of course we discussed recently.
It's like, what is with these surcharges?

768
00:49:06.559 --> 00:49:09.239
That the processing fee? And I'm
like, but I'm not dealing with

769
00:49:09.320 --> 00:49:13.559
the human here. Why am I
paying a processing fee? Yeah, isn't

770
00:49:14.239 --> 00:49:17.079
technology meant to make it? You've
you've built your website, you've paid it

771
00:49:17.159 --> 00:49:21.000
off, it's been the same website
for a decade plus. Now you're not

772
00:49:21.039 --> 00:49:23.400
paying anything else to make the infrastructure
any better. Why am I paying a

773
00:49:23.440 --> 00:49:28.079
processing fee? Going on a booking
fee? What if I want to if

774
00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:30.920
I want to book online, I've
got to pay a nextra ten percent or

775
00:49:30.960 --> 00:49:32.320
something. But if I go to
the cinema, speak to a human being,

776
00:49:32.599 --> 00:49:37.760
no booking fee, just whatever.
And I had some for the cinema.

777
00:49:37.800 --> 00:49:38.760
Tell me was because you get the
book where your seats are? And

778
00:49:38.800 --> 00:49:43.159
I'm like, no, no,
no no, because I went there and

779
00:49:43.280 --> 00:49:45.280
she said, she turned the screen
and said which seats would you like?

780
00:49:45.360 --> 00:49:47.000
And I'm like, so I can
actually book my seats here as well?

781
00:49:47.159 --> 00:49:51.360
What the hell is the booking fee
for? By the way, you will

782
00:49:51.400 --> 00:49:55.280
not see it, but Dano did
a very nice fingerwag need you style.

783
00:49:57.840 --> 00:50:00.960
But this is where Peter Frampton's had
his It doesn't work. The cyper Seals

784
00:50:00.960 --> 00:50:04.159
stole his orchestra. I'm like,
that's a great little buttons out game.

785
00:50:04.639 --> 00:50:08.320
And then so rating is cooler.
You' don't gonna need all that watermelon.

786
00:50:08.400 --> 00:50:13.039
Mister franp I they call him.
Mister Frampton is the old guy on campus.

787
00:50:13.440 --> 00:50:15.440
But it's our time for Homer,
the man who embodies everything about rock

788
00:50:15.480 --> 00:50:20.119
and roll except the music. And
Milu what Homer says? Okay, Homer,

789
00:50:20.159 --> 00:50:22.679
don't feel the reaper. Maybe I
doe remember I know, Milhouse says,

790
00:50:22.719 --> 00:50:25.880
I used to a couple of that
guy Marge is really worried though kind

791
00:50:25.920 --> 00:50:30.239
of cannon the design to hurt,
design to hurt. It reminds me very

792
00:50:30.280 --> 00:50:35.360
similar vibe to when he's in the
boxing ring. Uh what does she yell

793
00:50:35.400 --> 00:50:37.320
at? Though? Because I know
Homer says you gotta fight back. I

794
00:50:37.440 --> 00:50:42.000
was like that bull cactus is right, is right. But the family they're

795
00:50:42.000 --> 00:50:44.199
putting on the brave face for Homer, I don't let's not see him,

796
00:50:44.880 --> 00:50:46.920
let's not let him see us worry, but says you're the coolest that alive.

797
00:50:47.320 --> 00:50:51.559
Everyone's incredibly nervous or ale watching and
Homer jumps out of the way,

798
00:50:51.559 --> 00:50:53.800
which was the right decision. Then
this is where he says that I thought

799
00:50:53.800 --> 00:50:58.920
I didn't have enough of destruction.
All I wanted was the club Sandwich sonic

800
00:50:59.000 --> 00:51:00.079
youth. Then say your hold,
loser, it's not about the freaks,

801
00:51:00.079 --> 00:51:05.360
It's about the music, the advertising, youth orientated product placing placement, and

802
00:51:05.519 --> 00:51:12.000
get nicely toasted the manager that the
manager that expects Home's letter of resignation to

803
00:51:12.199 --> 00:51:14.320
end his office at the end of
the day, which is the hood of

804
00:51:14.360 --> 00:51:16.360
his car. Homer then says,
you know, I can't I'm sorry,

805
00:51:16.719 --> 00:51:22.679
Billy, I just can't set share
your bleak world view. I've got too

806
00:51:22.719 --> 00:51:25.719
much to live for. But Billy
say, I'm just gonna have to settle

807
00:51:25.760 --> 00:51:29.159
for. What is it my legions
of fans, millions of dollars, and

808
00:51:30.000 --> 00:51:32.320
and my youth. Ye yes,
let's go, fir coat, I want

809
00:51:32.320 --> 00:51:37.559
to walk in humid off. Apparently
Billy Corgan did like really good impersonations of

810
00:51:37.599 --> 00:51:40.559
Homer and marg Julie. Okay,
said Wrestling Company, I know the n

811
00:51:40.639 --> 00:51:46.239
w WA. It's so bizarre.
And the family are now driving home and

812
00:51:46.880 --> 00:51:50.480
well, I guess being a family
is more important than being cool, and

813
00:51:50.559 --> 00:51:52.159
they're just trying to say it was
a hip to be square, that they're

814
00:51:52.199 --> 00:51:55.840
being uncool, and the family,
the kids are trying to explain, you're

815
00:51:55.840 --> 00:51:59.320
not cool, and it's not okay. Me not caring that I'm not cool

816
00:51:59.360 --> 00:52:01.519
makes me cool? Right? No? What does make me cool? Maybe

817
00:52:01.880 --> 00:52:05.199
if you're truly cool, you don't
need to be told that you're cool.

818
00:52:05.280 --> 00:52:07.079
Of course you do. How is
it? You know? It's like that

819
00:52:07.199 --> 00:52:10.280
conversation to me is a lot of
the epitome of no one actually knows what

820
00:52:10.360 --> 00:52:14.280
cool is? The eternal quandary,
Yes, like, how do you be

821
00:52:14.400 --> 00:52:16.280
called nobody knows you just some people
are call some people aren't. But also,

822
00:52:16.400 --> 00:52:21.280
you can't call yourself cool, no, No, being cool is like

823
00:52:21.360 --> 00:52:23.000
being tough or being a lady.
If you need to say you're you're not.

824
00:52:23.079 --> 00:52:25.679
If you need to say you're the
best, you're probably not. Well

825
00:52:27.639 --> 00:52:31.760
the quote was it Ti in Taiwan
Lanister, He's like, any man who

826
00:52:31.800 --> 00:52:36.039
has to call himself king is no
true king. Yes, So then we

827
00:52:36.119 --> 00:52:38.199
get the closing credit, So I'm
like Dando, who's just the king doing

828
00:52:38.239 --> 00:52:42.800
their zombie dance sort of just deep. Yeah, is really getting to them,

829
00:52:42.800 --> 00:52:45.159
but they're not really doing anything different. And that's just the end of

830
00:52:45.519 --> 00:52:49.559
Homer Palooza, an episode that I
knew was iconic but forgot to how many

831
00:52:49.679 --> 00:52:52.199
iconic moments we're in it. It's
just so fun iconic and just playing fun,

832
00:52:52.320 --> 00:52:57.519
playing and playing funny. Yeah,
would you say it was funnier or

833
00:52:57.760 --> 00:53:00.679
just fun? What did you like
it was pretty funny? Didn't? Yeah?

834
00:53:00.679 --> 00:53:06.400
I think yeah, But I think
for people at have various stages of

835
00:53:06.719 --> 00:53:10.480
I don't know, societal development and
the various demographics that we're in, which

836
00:53:10.480 --> 00:53:13.440
I think the lot of the writers
are probably going through at that point in

837
00:53:13.480 --> 00:53:16.159
time as well. Yeah, it's
a good time capsule. Yeah, it

838
00:53:16.239 --> 00:53:20.280
doesn't feel dated, but it doesn't
feel dated because you know everything old is

839
00:53:20.320 --> 00:53:22.079
new again and you know, some
things just remain. It's forever. It's

840
00:53:22.239 --> 00:53:24.679
the story of the forever theme of
just being out of touch. Yeah.

841
00:53:24.960 --> 00:53:29.119
But yeah, the Quota band that
is eternally cool. The song remains the

842
00:53:29.159 --> 00:53:32.960
same. I think, yeah,
A say that, do they sometimes?

843
00:53:34.840 --> 00:53:38.039
But I think this episode I've never
appreciated it more. I think I've always

844
00:53:38.159 --> 00:53:42.400
liked this episode, but now that
I've truly entered that phase of what Home

845
00:53:42.519 --> 00:53:45.400
is going through, I think that's
how you really truly appreciate this episode and

846
00:53:45.519 --> 00:53:47.800
enjoy it for what it is.
You used to enjoy it, now you're

847
00:53:47.840 --> 00:53:50.840
living now I'll live it and I
love it. Yeah. I just thought

848
00:53:50.880 --> 00:53:53.760
this episode was fantastic. So that
has been our classic review for this monthe

849
00:53:53.760 --> 00:53:57.840
you guys enjoyed it. Homer Blueser
come back with another classic review next month

850
00:53:57.880 --> 00:54:00.920
as well. Also got some season
nineteen reviews and some upcoming guest stars as

851
00:54:00.960 --> 00:54:02.519
well, which is pretty exciting.
Don't forget guys, if you haven't yet

852
00:54:02.559 --> 00:54:07.360
checked it out, We've just launched
a brand new podcast available every single Friday.

853
00:54:07.719 --> 00:54:13.519
It is called TV Launch pat you
blew it, you had one light

854
00:54:13.559 --> 00:54:19.960
and you blew it, It's called
TV Launch TV Launch pots So basically go

855
00:54:20.079 --> 00:54:23.480
back and we review the pilot episodes
of particular TV shows and it's gonna be

856
00:54:23.480 --> 00:54:27.039
a lot of fun. And the
first episode we recorded this week we recorded

857
00:54:27.079 --> 00:54:30.239
today actually as we recorded this one, it is Bob's Burger's, a show

858
00:54:30.360 --> 00:54:34.199
is very near and dear to our
hearts, and as we still say,

859
00:54:34.280 --> 00:54:37.760
we will launch it Bobs Burger's Podcast
if we get enough supporters on Patreon so

860
00:54:37.800 --> 00:54:39.360
you can do it so for as
little as just one single dollar per month,

861
00:54:39.880 --> 00:54:43.039
and yeah, we'll kick off the
Bobsburgers podcast. But it's just fun

862
00:54:43.079 --> 00:54:44.719
to go back and movies at the
pilot, wasn't it. We had an

863
00:54:44.760 --> 00:54:47.159
absolute blast doing so. Yeah,
and some upcoming shows are gonna be doing

864
00:54:47.199 --> 00:54:50.639
this month. We want to keep
it a surprise, but let's tease one

865
00:54:50.679 --> 00:54:52.000
more. We're gonna be Buffy the
vampires Layer. We are indeed, yes,

866
00:54:52.039 --> 00:54:54.280
that's gonna be not coming on as
well, but every single week it's

867
00:54:54.280 --> 00:54:59.360
gonna be doing no animation sitcoms dramas, dramas. You just you don't know

868
00:54:59.360 --> 00:55:01.599
what's gonna be coming. It's gonna
be a variety of pilot episodes are gonna

869
00:55:01.599 --> 00:55:05.280
be a lot of fun because we
just thought we do side fellow shows on

870
00:55:05.360 --> 00:55:07.679
Patreon, but you're King of the
Hill. It's the same show I've and

871
00:55:07.719 --> 00:55:09.159
over and it's good, great shows, but we want to switch up a

872
00:55:09.199 --> 00:55:12.719
bit, just a bit of variety. Yeah, because I'm a swifty let's

873
00:55:12.880 --> 00:55:14.880
shake it up a little bit.
Yeah. And again, it's gonna be

874
00:55:14.880 --> 00:55:15.920
some shows we watched the pilot of
that we've never actually seen the show.

875
00:55:16.039 --> 00:55:20.599
I think I feel like those pilot
reviews will be genuinely the best ones because

876
00:55:20.639 --> 00:55:23.119
we don't know what's coming. They
will be completely uninformed and thoroughly entertained.

877
00:55:24.880 --> 00:55:28.079
