So we're gonna get a little high. 16 00:00:42.520 --> 00:00:46.920 I'm dando. I feel like you know, I know you're 17 00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:50.159 a big Towy fan. But I got to the end 18 00:00:50.200 --> 00:00:51.840 of this one and went, am I gonna be the 19 00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:53.159 only person in the were that didn't like this one? 20 00:00:53.159 --> 00:00:56.159 I went online. I was like, oh no, the people 21 00:00:56.200 --> 00:00:59.759 who made this did not like it. Yeah, but I 22 00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:02.039 was saying it's the worst episode. And I'm not just 23 00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:06.079 necessarily saying it's a bad episode, but it's just it 24 00:01:06.079 --> 00:01:08.959 could have been a lot better. Well, it just didn't 25 00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:11.000 feel like a south Park episode. First things. 26 00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:15.120 First, rumors of my Tally love have been greatly exaggerated. 27 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:18.120 I liked, I liked Tally fine, you like you like 28 00:01:18.239 --> 00:01:19.400 what he does in his pastime. 29 00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:24.920 Correct, even I'm not, I'm not getting as much as 30 00:01:24.920 --> 00:01:28.799 I used to. But yeah, this, uh, this episode had 31 00:01:28.959 --> 00:01:31.519 very much kind of like we're winging. 32 00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:31.840 It to quality. 33 00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:35.040 I mean, even though they said, uh, this is our 34 00:01:35.120 --> 00:01:36.879 bank episode, this is kind of like, oh, well this 35 00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:37.879 is an idea we're just going. 36 00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:40.159 To have we do we do. That means we did 37 00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:43.120 some work in the before the season started so that 38 00:01:43.120 --> 00:01:44.640 we'd have to do any more extra work when it's 39 00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:45.760 time to get to that one. So I thought, we're 40 00:01:45.760 --> 00:01:47.319 getting in the bank, you've got something in the test, 41 00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:49.120 so we can take a week off basically correct, And 42 00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:51.879 they realized halfway through, oh shit, this is a good episode. 43 00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:56.519 We need to fix it. The bank has gone background. Yeah, 44 00:01:56.719 --> 00:01:58.599 our creatively way it has been. The thing is I'm 45 00:01:58.599 --> 00:02:00.840 watching this going. It definitely felt that way to me, 46 00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:03.640 not so much from a story perspective, but just from 47 00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:06.599 production value. So much of the episode was just a 48 00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:10.240 still shot of Oprah's minge yes, and this is them talking. 49 00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:15.199 I was like, it's just them doing voice screenshot. That 50 00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:15.960 was very much the guy. 51 00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:19.520 Yeah, look, there's certainly stuff behind the scenes here that 52 00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:22.439 felt like, oh, you could have explored this a bit more, 53 00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:25.240 you could have done a bit more with it. But yeah, 54 00:02:25.319 --> 00:02:29.599 generally this feels like, ooh, I'm tired or little I 55 00:02:29.680 --> 00:02:31.360 don't want to have to work too hard this week. 56 00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:34.479 We've got that idea, let's run with it. Oh, you know, 57 00:02:34.520 --> 00:02:36.159 we're gonna have a little fun in the recording booth 58 00:02:36.159 --> 00:02:38.719 by just doing fun accents all that kind of business. 59 00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:42.479 But yeah, not's not a great episode according to dandel 60 00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:44.479 and Guy, and not according to Parker and Stone. 61 00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:46.919 Yeah, when you're coming off the heights of like Cartoon 62 00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:48.280 Wars and you go into this. 63 00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:51.039 Well that means yeah, that feels like so much effort 64 00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:55.000 went into it, not just in terms of the imagination, 65 00:02:55.039 --> 00:02:57.000 in terms of coming up with it, but also the execution. 66 00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:00.560 I mean, yeah, that felt like a movie. Those episodes 67 00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:03.039 felt really well directed. Yes, and a lot of them 68 00:03:03.039 --> 00:03:06.039 felt like action movie staff. And they felt hot a 69 00:03:06.039 --> 00:03:07.879 hot topic at the time too, like taking him pissed 70 00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:09.800 out a family guy and no one was willing to 71 00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:10.080 do that. 72 00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:14.199 I was looking up when the whole because this this 73 00:03:14.360 --> 00:03:18.919 mainly revolves around an author named James Frye and his 74 00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:20.919 memoir called A Million Little Pieces. 75 00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:23.000 Well, he's quote unquote memoir. 76 00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:25.960 He was a writer who came up with a story 77 00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:28.080 about his sort of struggles with addiction. All that kind 78 00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:31.400 of stuff made him very, very popular, and he went 79 00:03:31.439 --> 00:03:34.080 on Oprah and it sort of, yeah, this story is 80 00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:37.000 oh wow, profound and powerful, and it turns out that 81 00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:38.639 a lot of it he made up. 82 00:03:39.199 --> 00:03:40.199 It was actually based on something. 83 00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:43.080 Yeah, a lot of a lot of it he embellished. Yeah, 84 00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:45.719 and yeah, Oprah basically took him to town for that. 85 00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:47.800 She's like, come back on, well, yeah, I mean this 86 00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:50.080 episode is basically so she did that in real life. 87 00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:50.560 Yeah. Yeah. 88 00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:53.879 She initially went on Oprah's like, wow, fantastic. Sorry, Hey, thanks, 89 00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:56.439 Hey James, you suck. 90 00:03:56.719 --> 00:03:57.039 Sorry. 91 00:03:57.919 --> 00:03:59.719 Although James, for I don't think I've got a lot 92 00:03:59.719 --> 00:04:03.120 of time this guy. He seems like an absolute hustler. 93 00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:06.520 Gotta love the player, You've got to respect the hustle. 94 00:04:06.680 --> 00:04:09.400 At the same time, I don't know how good he 95 00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:12.560 is a writer, but yeah, he's got an incredible work ethic, 96 00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:14.960 But He also seems one of those guys like you. 97 00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:18.000 Can make money with riding if you tell the right story. 98 00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:19.959 About the story. I actually thought it. 99 00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:21.720 Was quite like Talley. I don't know why game did. 100 00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:23.839 I thought it was quite genius of talit to Okay, 101 00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:28.279 I just changed how for a person. Well, it's funny. 102 00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:30.279 I mean, watching this, I was reminded of a good 103 00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:33.720 friend of mine who's a writer who wrote a whole 104 00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:38.639 house novel that's hard, and they were told by the 105 00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:42.800 publisher like, this is great. Memoirs are really big. Right now, 106 00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:45.480 we know that you've sort of taken inspiration from your 107 00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:47.800 life and your experiences and doing this. Are you able 108 00:04:47.839 --> 00:04:52.040 to reframe this as a memoir as about your actual life? Well, yeah, 109 00:04:52.040 --> 00:04:59.160 there's check in, sorry Rachelle. But yeah, so their book 110 00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:02.199 came out as a memoir. Look, I don't want to 111 00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:03.519 I don't want to speak for something I'm sort of 112 00:05:03.519 --> 00:05:05.560 I maybe misrememory. But I think they were kind of like, 113 00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:07.959 I don't know how I feel about sort of putting 114 00:05:07.959 --> 00:05:11.240 my name on this as like, yeah, this happened to me, 115 00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:13.040 or I did this as opposed. 116 00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:16.000 To based on true of it, because that's you know, 117 00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:18.480 novels used to be like that rage is like it 118 00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:19.279 writer's license. 119 00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:22.240 They just called creative license. Essentially, it's like, yeah, look, 120 00:05:22.279 --> 00:05:25.439 even if it didn't happen. Actually, as this, it's based 121 00:05:25.480 --> 00:05:27.560 on stuff that really happened to me, and I've taken 122 00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:30.120 a little distance from it just to save my own 123 00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:33.040 mental health or whatever. But now it's like, no, no, 124 00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:35.120 we need full disclosure. Tell us about all the worst 125 00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:37.040 things that happened to you so we can, you know, 126 00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:41.560 feed on it. But so this episode here apparently was 127 00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:44.319 originally going to be them, So the Tally thing was 128 00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:46.120 always gonna be the story, but it was going to 129 00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:48.959 be the town have an intervention for twit to getting 130 00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:51.040 off the drugs. And I guess they. 131 00:05:50.920 --> 00:05:52.680 Realized that there was no humor in that, or they 132 00:05:52.720 --> 00:05:54.720 didn't like the idea and they said, all right, we 133 00:05:54.759 --> 00:05:56.759 need to scrap that. And the Oprah one was a 134 00:05:56.800 --> 00:05:59.120 different and different idea they had, right, and they've sort 135 00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:00.920 of slammed them together, and I don't think they went 136 00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:04.079 together all that well, but so much of it was 137 00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:06.879 dedicated to Oprah. And I'm watching this and I got 138 00:06:06.879 --> 00:06:10.160 the feeling of did they realize that Tawi is such 139 00:06:10.160 --> 00:06:13.720 a one one note character? You can't really base a 140 00:06:13.720 --> 00:06:16.560 full twenty two minute episode on just him, so I 141 00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:18.879 had to pad it out with other stuff. Yeah, because 142 00:06:18.879 --> 00:06:22.079 the Minga and Gary stuff. By the way, is it 143 00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:23.959 weird that the ass was called Gary but had a 144 00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:28.000 female voice. Well, it sounded like a female Jamaican accent. 145 00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:31.160 To me, it sounded like a gay British voice. Okay, 146 00:06:31.199 --> 00:06:34.759 I thought Alto sounded Jamaican. That that I know, I 147 00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:39.120 thought Scottish. The Minji, yeah he said it. It seemed 148 00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:39.399 to me. 149 00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:43.759 I mean, have you ever seen the movie Dog Day Afternoon? Yes, Yeah, 150 00:06:43.800 --> 00:06:46.120 the dynamic of those two of min and Gary sounded 151 00:06:46.120 --> 00:06:50.040 a bit like al Pacino and yeah, it's kind of 152 00:06:50.079 --> 00:06:53.600 like I'm going for it on. I don't know about this, Yeah, 153 00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:56.959 but I don't know if it's actually in like British 154 00:06:57.000 --> 00:06:58.839 crime movies or something of that. But you've always got 155 00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:01.639 someone who's the real tough guy, and they're probably in 156 00:07:01.720 --> 00:07:04.959 some either straight up goa relationship or closeted sort of 157 00:07:05.000 --> 00:07:06.920 relationship where one's kind of like, oh, I. 158 00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:09.759 Don't know about this, No, we're going to do it, 159 00:07:09.800 --> 00:07:12.360 and then we're off, never off to Paris, you know, 160 00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:20.319 when we'll be happy forever Gary Tower hold me min Yeah, 161 00:07:20.920 --> 00:07:22.439 so I just got to kick out of it that way. 162 00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:24.480 I mean I thought that stuff was hilarious. 163 00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:26.079 Yeah, there's a lot that's really funny about it. 164 00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:28.199 It just felt like Parker and Stone, but it's having 165 00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:33.639 a hilarious time doing funny voices. Laugh. Yeah, especially with Gary. 166 00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:36.879 I thought it would have been I would have respected 167 00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:39.560 this episode more if the entire thing was just about 168 00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:41.639 Minjy and Gary. And then it's when you know, what, 169 00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:43.000 fuck you we're going to do this, because then you 170 00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:45.360 can appreciate it for life. There not without my an's 171 00:07:45.439 --> 00:07:46.319 kind of the absurdity. 172 00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:48.480 There was a Terrence Philip kind of not not an 173 00:07:48.680 --> 00:07:50.600 for you to the audience, but kind of like. 174 00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:53.319 We gave you what we gave you. 175 00:07:53.439 --> 00:07:55.920 Yeah, we gave you cartoon, which was really what you wanted, right, 176 00:07:55.959 --> 00:07:57.879 I mean, you've got a lot of carton, stuck with 177 00:07:58.000 --> 00:07:59.480 a lot of stuff with the other kids you've got, 178 00:07:59.519 --> 00:08:02.040 you didn't bit all that kind of business. And then 179 00:08:02.480 --> 00:08:03.600 next episode is just like. 180 00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:06.120 Wait, where are the kids? Where where is any character? 181 00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:08.240 Louis know, I know they left out all the main 182 00:08:08.240 --> 00:08:11.040 cast except for Tawi, right, but because Tawley's in it, 183 00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:13.800 I was watching this and viewing this as a south 184 00:08:13.839 --> 00:08:16.959 Park episode because he was in it, and now because 185 00:08:16.959 --> 00:08:18.720 of that, I'm going, oh, this isn't very good. If 186 00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:20.120 there was no Tally in it, I was watching it 187 00:08:20.120 --> 00:08:22.199 purely going Okay, I see what they're doing here. Yeah. 188 00:08:22.199 --> 00:08:23.839 I think I would have appreciated that more. 189 00:08:23.879 --> 00:08:25.839 Well, yeah, you'd be going the surprising a little south 190 00:08:25.879 --> 00:08:26.879 Park in the south Park. 191 00:08:27.000 --> 00:08:28.839 Yeah, I wouldn't have cared like, Okay, well that's what 192 00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:32.879 they're doing. Yeah, they've gone off of But in saying that, though, 193 00:08:32.919 --> 00:08:35.799 I did really like Themingi in Gary. That was fun. 194 00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:38.000 That was fun because, as we said in the past, 195 00:08:38.080 --> 00:08:39.840 you know what's funnier than a funny voice? 196 00:08:40.000 --> 00:08:43.000 Yeah, and it's not it's not a bad episode. It's 197 00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:46.320 probably it's probably a bad south Park episode. But was 198 00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:49.080 I entertained? Yeah? I wasn't detained, but I was, But 199 00:08:49.120 --> 00:08:51.960 I was confused. I'm going, wait, is this what? What? What? 200 00:08:51.960 --> 00:08:54.639 What is the point of all this? But like I said, 201 00:08:54.639 --> 00:08:57.279 if it was entirely Mingy and Gary, I don't think 202 00:08:57.279 --> 00:08:58.519 I would have had the mindset of what's the point 203 00:08:58.559 --> 00:09:00.440 of all this? The point of it is there is 204 00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:01.120 no point? 205 00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:04.240 Yeah, But then what's the end to Ming and Garry 206 00:09:04.679 --> 00:09:06.960 without the Tawly thing. I mean, you can come up 207 00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:07.679 with a plot of that. 208 00:09:07.799 --> 00:09:08.240 Be sure. 209 00:09:08.279 --> 00:09:11.840 Somewhere there has to be some tenuous connection to the 210 00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:13.120 world of South Buck in some way. 211 00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:14.600 I mean, it could just be a takedown of Oprah 212 00:09:14.600 --> 00:09:15.399 in the entire well that's the thing. 213 00:09:15.440 --> 00:09:18.000 But yeah, not without not without Minus is Terrence and Philip, 214 00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:21.720 and Terrence and Philip is watched by. 215 00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:23.639 I guess like Tawley is the Terrence. Yeah, there's some 216 00:09:23.679 --> 00:09:25.240 connection to the south Back universe. 217 00:09:25.279 --> 00:09:27.919 But still it's very, very tense, and you feel that 218 00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:28.480 as a result. 219 00:09:28.559 --> 00:09:30.240 I mean yeah, and maybe because they take too long 220 00:09:30.320 --> 00:09:35.320 to get to that part of it is Towley getting 221 00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:38.360 his book deal and stuff and being famous. Well that's yeah. 222 00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:41.399 I mean he sucks up at PF Changs because he's 223 00:09:41.440 --> 00:09:42.159 high on the job. 224 00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:45.639 He's I got to make some money because I got run. Yeah, 225 00:09:45.919 --> 00:09:50.360 it's realized by the way when I'm talk with my 226 00:09:50.360 --> 00:09:52.720 good friend Anthony and we sort of be making fun 227 00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:56.240 of things. Towley is the voice. Will use it. Yeah, 228 00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:58.320 that sounds really great. We'll do that. It's also your 229 00:09:58.759 --> 00:10:02.320 Squeaky Voice team it Squeaky Voice. Squeaky Voice fare from 230 00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:04.639 The Simpsons. You know that that's your voice for him? 231 00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:09.039 Okay, so yeah, nothing funny than a funny voice. 232 00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:09.519 Yeah. 233 00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:11.720 It decides to write his memo because he needs to 234 00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:14.799 make rent money, gets rejected, rewrites, it comes to. 235 00:10:14.799 --> 00:10:18.000 Success then Oprah. Yeah so yeah, so it's basically the 236 00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:20.559 first act betray him. Might have come out publicly and 237 00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:23.559 said that they hate this episode. They've said that there's 238 00:10:23.559 --> 00:10:25.720 some of the episodes they wish they could just delete 239 00:10:25.720 --> 00:10:28.000 from the catalog, and this is one of them. I 240 00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:29.799 think it's because that, you know, Parker in particular, I 241 00:10:29.799 --> 00:10:31.879 think will be a real perfectionist. Yes, and at the 242 00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:34.159 time probably felt like, you know, who cares. You know, 243 00:10:34.159 --> 00:10:36.440 we're getting paid do a funny voice, is having a 244 00:10:36.440 --> 00:10:38.639 good time, and then you reflect twenty years later and go, 245 00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:39.679 this is pretty sure. 246 00:10:39.799 --> 00:10:41.960 Oh yeah, this is a blot on the resume. Yeah, 247 00:10:42.039 --> 00:10:42.399 oh yeah. 248 00:10:42.440 --> 00:10:44.320 But I think any creative person feels like it's like, oh, 249 00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:48.559 you know, you could have a fantastic sort of batting 250 00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:53.200 average or you know, hit record or whatever, but there's 251 00:10:53.240 --> 00:10:54.440 going to be one or two in there. It's like, 252 00:10:54.679 --> 00:10:57.120 oh man, that really let the side down. But I 253 00:10:57.159 --> 00:11:00.399 think this was just the snowball effect of having in 254 00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:02.600 the can thinking it was good and then realizing oh shit, 255 00:11:02.960 --> 00:11:05.480 and scrapping something together last minute. That's what That's what's 256 00:11:05.519 --> 00:11:09.200 happened here. Yeah, it's not a bad idea, it's just 257 00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:11.559 it's just the idea. It's just I feel like these 258 00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:13.799 two stories should have been separated. I feel like, if 259 00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:15.879 you're going to have an episode with Minjy and Gary, 260 00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:18.120 either have it just that or you at least need 261 00:11:18.159 --> 00:11:20.320 to have the boys involved. So it doesn't feel like 262 00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:22.519 it's why we spend so much time with Oprah's vagina 263 00:11:22.799 --> 00:11:23.639 and not the boys. 264 00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:27.000 I guess, so, yeah, but I mean, yeah, this fry 265 00:11:27.039 --> 00:11:29.679 thing was a bit of a controversy in the at 266 00:11:29.679 --> 00:11:31.639 the time or around that. Yeah, so, I mean it 267 00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:33.440 was pretty pretty big deal. So does she go to 268 00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:35.919 town on him on the show, but not to this 269 00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:38.399 that she does in this episode. But I think it 270 00:11:38.399 --> 00:11:39.960 was very much you lied to us, and you lied 271 00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:42.399 to me and that kind of thing. That was the implication. 272 00:11:42.480 --> 00:11:43.720 And this was of course a time when. 273 00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:47.080 Oprah was Oprah. Oprah was Oprah, yeah, I mean, and 274 00:11:47.120 --> 00:11:49.440 then she just stopped being Oprah. I mean, she obviously 275 00:11:49.440 --> 00:11:50.399 still is. 276 00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:53.000 To some degree, but you're not, certainly not as much 277 00:11:53.000 --> 00:11:53.519 as she used to. 278 00:11:53.600 --> 00:11:55.360 She doesn't do her specials anymore. I feel like, how 279 00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:55.720 is it not? 280 00:11:55.799 --> 00:11:57.840 When's the last time she sort of did anything like that? 281 00:11:58.440 --> 00:12:01.480 William and not not we oh yeah, Megan. 282 00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:05.519 And does anyone even care about that? Not really? But 283 00:12:05.759 --> 00:12:06.440 she is that. 284 00:12:06.679 --> 00:12:08.399 She used the term she's got a grandfather in now. 285 00:12:08.440 --> 00:12:11.320 I mean it's like we say that, but you're gonna 286 00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:15.159 understand we are. I'm getting old, Like we're both getting old, right, 287 00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:19.399 so am yeah. But the thing is with Oprah, it's 288 00:12:19.440 --> 00:12:21.919 like anyone under the age of twenty five, who open, 289 00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:24.360 Oh sure, yeah, we're gonna have an Oprah, specially the 290 00:12:24.399 --> 00:12:27.720 kid's like why that's really bracing, isn't it. We' it's like, 291 00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:29.480 hey someone, so I was going to talk to Yeah, 292 00:12:29.480 --> 00:12:31.559 Oprah's going to talk to this person. Like and the 293 00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:33.799 ship that was so big in your life when you're 294 00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:36.360 growing up is irrelevant now? Oh sure, I do not 295 00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:41.440 say Oprah's irrelevant to the younger audience. She's irrelevant. 296 00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:44.399 Oh yeah, I mean like Oprah's talking to mister beat what. 297 00:12:44.919 --> 00:12:48.320 Yeah, So I'm just reading here on the wiki page 298 00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:51.240 of Parker and Stone, also discussed in the commentary that 299 00:12:51.600 --> 00:12:53.559 they discussed the hat on top of a hat scenario 300 00:12:53.639 --> 00:12:57.120 to describe the weirdness of this episode's two stories, saying 301 00:12:57.159 --> 00:12:59.440 that when one wears two hats, one on top of 302 00:12:59.440 --> 00:13:02.279 the other, just end up looking like an idiot, weirdness 303 00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:05.000 on top of weirdness, replacing the hats. In hindsight, Parker 304 00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:07.000 and Stone felt that the two storylines used in this 305 00:13:07.000 --> 00:13:09.720 episode should have been split up into two separate episodes. 306 00:13:09.759 --> 00:13:11.279 The title of the episode and some elements of the 307 00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:14.639 plot were then reference to what you're saying. Yeah, I 308 00:13:14.639 --> 00:13:16.720 don't know. I think I think those two sort of 309 00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:20.679 they did a good job of making it, making it together. Yeah, 310 00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:23.600 I think the hat on the hat is I guess. 311 00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:24.440 I don't know. 312 00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:26.639 If they're talking about the Minge and Garry. 313 00:13:26.639 --> 00:13:28.919 Thing, that's that's one story. Yeah. 314 00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:32.360 But I mean if it was just Towy rides a memoir, 315 00:13:32.519 --> 00:13:37.360 it's it's fake or he misrepresents his memoir and Oprah becomes, 316 00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:38.720 you know, the champion of it. 317 00:13:39.399 --> 00:13:41.759 That's it. That's interesting. That's an interesting storyline. I mean 318 00:13:41.799 --> 00:13:43.440 you have to sort of tink around with a little 319 00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:45.360 bit more, but then have like then you sort of 320 00:13:45.399 --> 00:13:48.240 pan down between Oprah's leys like, oh blody else she 321 00:13:48.279 --> 00:13:50.679 want shut up? What is going? 322 00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:54.600 Okay, that's where your hat comes on, so m okay, 323 00:13:54.639 --> 00:13:56.960 But then how would you do just a storyline about 324 00:13:57.039 --> 00:13:59.240 Oprah's minge and asshole. 325 00:14:00.759 --> 00:14:02.919 Not being happy not being happy? Yeah, because they need 326 00:14:02.919 --> 00:14:05.480 to try and sabatasha career in somewhere. Don't they bring 327 00:14:05.559 --> 00:14:06.759 in the town thing? I don't know. I'm sure they 328 00:14:06.759 --> 00:14:08.679 could figure out some way. Yeah, but it's just the 329 00:14:08.879 --> 00:14:10.440 vibe of the episode felt weird because it's like you're 330 00:14:10.440 --> 00:14:11.879 trying to do a south Back episode, but you're also 331 00:14:11.879 --> 00:14:14.679 trying to do one of those weird absurd episodes. Yeah, 332 00:14:14.679 --> 00:14:16.879 because still to this day, I think the worst episode 333 00:14:17.240 --> 00:14:20.279 is the Pip one. I just didn't like the Pip episode. 334 00:14:20.600 --> 00:14:23.559 Well, and this kid's mentioned i think on the wiki 335 00:14:23.559 --> 00:14:25.279 page or just in Gae wasn't talking about this where 336 00:14:25.279 --> 00:14:28.480 they say this is really only one of two or 337 00:14:28.519 --> 00:14:30.840 a few episodes where there are no South Park kids 338 00:14:30.840 --> 00:14:32.559 in there, And Pip was another one of those where 339 00:14:32.559 --> 00:14:35.039 it's just like we're going to focus on this character's like, yeah, 340 00:14:35.039 --> 00:14:38.240 a bit of a up yours from Parker and Stones. 341 00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:39.679 And it wasn't really funny. The pip One where this 342 00:14:39.720 --> 00:14:41.639 one I thought at least a least it was funny. Yeah, 343 00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:49.879 they put some funny voices. Anyway, did you have any 344 00:14:49.879 --> 00:14:51.120 favorite moments in the episode? 345 00:14:51.960 --> 00:14:55.559 And that's basically it. They're really just Gary related, not 346 00:14:55.559 --> 00:14:57.120 even min so much min just funny enough. 347 00:14:57.120 --> 00:14:59.320 But oh Minji. 348 00:15:00.799 --> 00:15:04.519 When Gary is the one who sort of comes up 349 00:15:04.559 --> 00:15:05.360 with the whole plane is. 350 00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:08.679 Like, is not a right at all? He's a towel. 351 00:15:10.240 --> 00:15:12.799 He's a towel. It just rags me up. 352 00:15:14.600 --> 00:15:16.519 And yeah, just the end when they've had the whole 353 00:15:16.519 --> 00:15:21.559 shootout and oh you embarrassed. I think the other thing 354 00:15:21.639 --> 00:15:24.000 it reminds me of Gary. The other thing it reminds 355 00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:27.879 me of is when Ricky Gervais did that series Not 356 00:15:27.919 --> 00:15:30.840 The Office. It was an extras and he came up with. 357 00:15:30.919 --> 00:15:33.559 His own show that became really successfulcause everybody hated it. 358 00:15:33.919 --> 00:15:36.120 It was Extra just before the Office and The Office 359 00:15:36.200 --> 00:15:37.120 was first, wasn't it? Yeah? 360 00:15:37.120 --> 00:15:40.159 And then you did Extra and he was that struggling 361 00:15:40.200 --> 00:15:42.120 guy and he came up with the show was when 362 00:15:42.159 --> 00:15:43.240 the whistle Blows or something? 363 00:15:43.440 --> 00:15:45.559 I know it.
