Speaker 1: What is up, Fellasico's I'm Banfa Valley coming at you
with the one, the only, the certified, fantabulous co host
of mine, mister Grant Hughes. You're gathered here today for
bonus content, stat padding content. Grant had no idea that
he's been in for. It's an idea I've been I've
let fester for a while and finally hashtag All Star
Break finally had some time to put it together. I'm
not even gonna tell you what it is until we
reveal it. But Grant, are you ready? How are you
feeling about this? You're nervous, excited, angry that you're in
the dark again.
Speaker 2: Feeling a lot of different things. I'm I wouldn't say
I'm nervous, I am. I am interested. You have my
attention or curiosity, and hopefully I do badly enough so
that this will do well numbers wise.
Speaker 1: But if you haven't checked out our bobbleheads, worst NBA
bought or whose bobblehead is this segment? Go checked it out.
That one's gonna do so bad because you were nine
of nine disgusted, I wanted you to do so poorly. Okay,
so this is gonna be around of NBA. Who said it,
Joe Mizzoula or Batman?
Speaker 2: You have my approval?
Speaker 1: Now what is your before we get into this? What
is your history the how how knowledgeable of you of Batman?
I know you know Joe Mizzula quotes, but when it
comes to Batman quotes, how knowledgeable are you?
Speaker 2: I feel pretty good at least like the cinematic Batman's
I've seen all of the Batman movies many times.
Speaker 1: Oh Black One, I didn't see any I've seen.
Speaker 2: I've seen those ones. I'm sure I've seen like bat
those ones once, possibly Chunks a second time. But like
the Nolan ones, I've seen all those several times. Uh
Big Batman. The animated series Fan when I was a kid,
watched it, probably seen every episode of that at least
once because it was on at like four thirty every weekday.
So definitely right after the animaniacs. Oh yeah, absolutely, Tiny
Tunes saw that. So feel pretty good. I wouldn't say
I'm super familiar with all the comics, but uh, maybe enough.
I feel I feel like I should be able to
do this. But Joe Mizzula, man, Uh, there's a little
bit of mass vigilante inside him, so it's gonna be
some overlap.
Speaker 1: Or at least he thinks there is, based off a
lot of the things that he is. He has said,
I will say, so there are twelve of these. I
don't think they're they're not really any necessarily order. I
did start us off with an easy one, so people
stick through us. If you think this is gonna be
too obvious. I think you're gonna do well just because well,
I won't tell you what's not. And there are some
comic quotes, but I wasn't a comics guy either, so
I did do research to find those quotes and what
comics they were in. So I think you're gonna do well.
Though good are you ready?
Speaker 2: So ready?
Speaker 1: You just got to tap into your darkness? That's quote
number one who said that, Joe Mizzula or Batman. But
I challenge to make sure that it's not, because there
are certain things where it's hysterical, but they'd be dead
giveaways who it was.
Speaker 2: Well. I mean, even this is a great example. So
the only reason I'm picking Missoula is because I feel
like Batman would say, you must tap into your darkness
as opposed to you just gotta. That's the only difference
I see.
Speaker 1: That's why I said it was the easiest one. It
is correct. That was Joe Missoula.
Speaker 2: Grant.
Speaker 1: You were one for one, just like the real hero.
Shit right now, next quote up, I wake up every
day saying this could be my last day. Who said it,
Joe Miszula or Batman?
Speaker 2: These are coin flips. I wake up every day. So
this is a stoic mindset. I can imagine that Joe
Miszula does some stoic meditation every day when he wakes
up and meditates on the inevitability of death. Uh, I'm
gonna go Missoula again.
Speaker 1: You would be Joe Mazzuola said it. Oh, I have
to give the context. So Joe Mizuola said, you just
got to tap into your darkness Game three, after Game
three of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Knicks in
twenty twenty five, instead of going down three to OHO,
the Celtics won the game. I wake up every day
saying this could be my last day. That was Joe
Mizzoula's response to the Denver Nuggets firing Michael Malone.
Speaker 2: Still a stoic thought. But because I know that the
two characters involved here are Batman and Joe Missoula. I
thought it was literal life and death, and he was
talking about job security. He frames job security just like
you talk about literally dying today. Pretty good, okay.
Speaker 1: Quote number three who said this Batman or Joe Mizzoula,
It's not who I am underneath, but what I do
that defines me.
Speaker 2: So this is Christian Bale Batman for sure.
Speaker 1: Uh you got in the Batman and Batman begins two
thousand and five.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I can remember that. That's when Katie Holmes
was still involved.
Speaker 1: Yeah that you know. Has there ever there been such
a big like cast change where they didn't even try
to It wasn't a separate character. It was that they
kept the same characters, just changing the actress and then
it just never like the franchise was still wildly successful regardless.
Speaker 2: It's a TV move that happened in like a massive
budget blockbuster. Pretty rare, okay.
Speaker 1: Next quote up, who said this, Grant Joe Mizzoula or Batman,
If I'm going to taste death, you're coming with me?
Speaker 2: Well you've you've given it away here because one of
the main rules of Batman's whole deal is he does
not kill people except for the afflic Batman, who just
the body counts real high in the affleic Batman movies,
not Cannon. So this is Joe Mizula.
Speaker 1: You are correct the context though, Joe Mizzoula, and who
would win in a fight between him and Jail and Brown.
Speaker 2: That's that's intense.
Speaker 1: Next quote up Grant who said this Joe Mazzula or Batman.
Sometimes it's only madness that makes us what we are.
Speaker 2: I mean, this is this is getting tougher. I'm trying
to think of the context that Missoula would say this.
He doesn't usually talk about madness. If instead of madness
it was like like our predatory instincts, or like anything
about the animal kingdom, I would say, Missoula. So I'm
gonna say Batman here, you are correct.
Speaker 1: That was Batman in the Arkham Asylum, A series House
on Serious Earth, whatever it was it was in like
the nineteen Let me look at my actual master doc
here and see where that one came from. Batman in
Arkham Asylum, A serious House on Serious Earth, nineteen eighty nine.
Speaker 2: Okay, you're digging deep. Look at you getting into the
comic can.
Speaker 1: I tried, and yet I can't stump you.
Speaker 2: We need to get there. We'll get there.
Speaker 1: Next quote, the world only makes sense if you force
it to. Who said that, Joe Missoula or Batman?
Speaker 2: That feels like an affleck Batman. So that's what I'm
gonna go with.
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, you're wrong about the Batman, I believe,
but you are right that it is Batman. Batman in
the Dark Knight returns number four from nineteen eighty six.
It looks like the comic. I don't even know if
that's the right picture.
Speaker 2: I don't know the picture.
Speaker 1: But next quote, who said this? Grant, Joe Miszula or Batman?
We're all going to be dead soon and it really
doesn't matter anymore.
Speaker 2: I mean this, this is an I think Missoula is
a real stoic. H I'm gonna say this is Missoula.
This is too like, too gnarly and fatalistic for Batman.
Speaker 1: You are you remain perfect, sir. This was Joe Mizzula.
He said it when asked about the Celtics facing pressure
after winning the previous year's title.
Speaker 2: I love this guy.
Speaker 1: Next quote, who said this? Batman or Joe Mizzula are
you Man or fiend from Hell?
Speaker 2: Is this him talking to uh? Let's see ty is
Haliburton in the postseason last year. I hope this is Batman.
Actually I know, I don't hope it's Batman, but I
think it's Batman.
Speaker 1: It was Batman, and this one came from Batman and
Batman number two hundred and forty four, nineteen seventy six.
Speaker 2: If you're looking at the screen, it's the one where
Batman looks like Walton Goggins.
Speaker 1: I will say that was the quote that felt like
Missoula might have said, Fiend.
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's hard to imagine him where Fiend?
All right, let's hit hit me with the next one.
Speaker 1: Who said this? Joe Mizzula or Batman. I'm not wearing
hockey pads.
Speaker 2: We're back to the Christian Bale Batman here. Also, I
never knew if he was saying hockey pads or hockey pants.
Hockey pants is funnier, but I think it is pads.
Speaker 1: I did not look this up because it stands out
as one of the most ridiculous quotes in a Batman movie.
I just did it for memory. But yes, it was
Batman and the Christian Bale, Batman, the Dark Knight. I
just the voice him if you got it. If it's pants,
that would be even more so. Yeah, I'm gonna need
to look that up after we're nearing the end and
you've yet to get one wrong. But I'm not really
too hopeful. But anyway, forty years from now, none of
you are invited to my funeral. Who said that, Joe
Mazzula or Batman.
Speaker 2: That's a real Bruce Wayne vibe, especially if you're talking
like the the Robert Pattinson Emo sad, Sad Batman.
Speaker 1: Wait, Robert Pattinson was Batman.
Speaker 2: He's in the Batman. The one that, the most recent
one came out a few years ago was a good
Bruce Wayne, not a not a great Batman man.
Speaker 1: They should cast two separate afters that no one is
a Bruce Wayne and one one is Batman.
Speaker 2: That'd make it easier to sell. Nobody realizes that Bruce
Wayne is Batman. It's it's it's not quite Clark Kenton Superman,
but it's it's close, and like, come on, folks, let's
let's catch on. Uh, let's see, forty years from now,
none of you are invited to my funeral. I mean,
Batman's not inviting anyone to his funeral, but I also
feel like he wouldn't say that to anybody. Uh this,
I'm gonna go, Missoula. I feel like this is just
this is a weird thing to say at a press conference,
but you.
Speaker 1: Make this so much less fun for me. It was
Joe Mizzoula on pressure he faces from the Boston media.
Speaker 2: Okay. I like how he responds to any question about
pressure with just like, let's talk about death, shall we.
Speaker 1: I also kind of like how he apparently knows the
exact timeline for his death. I respect it.
Speaker 2: I'm sure he has the fight against the Grizzly Bear scheduled,
and he knows what's gonna happen, and he'll take the
grizzly Bear with him.
Speaker 1: We're near in the end here next quote, who said this? Grant,
Joe Mizzula or Batman. People need dramatic examples to shake
them out of apathy. As a man, I'm flesh and blood.
I can be ignored, I can be destroyed, But as
a symbol, I can be incorruptible. I can be everlasting.
Speaker 2: I think the problem here, as I know the Batman
movies too well, I kind of think this is Christian
Bale Again.
Speaker 1: You're incorrect. This is Joe Mizula drawing in a slob
play in the South. That does sound like something he
would say the sidelines out of bass play that was
Batman and Batman Begins two thousand and five that I
thought was gonna be a dead giveaway one, So that
that sounds like something Joe Missoula would say, though.
Speaker 2: One hundred percent does because I'm flesh and blood is
another like, yeah, you know what, Dan, he has said that,
we just we just don't know it. He said that
in the locker room.
Speaker 1: He hasn't said it on record yet. It's really all we.
Speaker 2: Can assume that about all of these he said them,
or at least thought them. They're just not not not
for public consumption.
Speaker 1: Next up, who said this, Joe Mizzoula or Batman? The
Animal Kingdom is the purest form of hierarchy.
Speaker 2: This is this is right up Missoula's alley. He loves correct.
Speaker 1: I knew you were gonna get it because you freaking
mentioned animal Kingdom before I was. I was heartbroken because
I thought this was the one that and this was
Joe Mizula talking about the Celtics having to defend their title.
That was the one that I thought that maybe you
could confuse because Batman bat animal. But if you knew
the Animal Kingdom quote, Dicey, you did twelve of twelve,
so you were nine of nine on Bobbleheads. I did
give you some hints for Bobblehead, you were twelve to twelve,
and I gave you zero fucking hints on this one.
Speaker 2: That's really I guess I'm a big nerd. And also,
like I definitely have looked up different Joe Miszoula quotes
because like I don't, I feel like I've had to
use them in stuff I've written before, or just just
as examples of what a great quote he is. So
uh sorry, I don't know what to tell you.
Speaker 1: I hope people at least enjoyed the exercise. What other
podcast is compare is doing Joe Mizzoula or Batman. IM
sure if it's a thing, there's a whole reddit like subreddit.
Speaker 2: Just now that you've said that that must exist. I
just think that the fact that you can plausibly imagine
him saying I can't think of one of those where
it's like he would never say that, meaning Missoula is
like it's a good exercise, Like it's hard to think
of what he wouldn't have said.
Speaker 1: So the whole as a as a like I'm flesh
and blood, I could be everlasting. That felt like a
long quote for him, because so many of his iconic
quotes are just so short.
Speaker 2: Right, and so many of them are like it would
have been like, I'm just flesh and blood and we're
all gonna be dust and eaten by worms, like and
that's what he's like. He says that when asked about
like how are you feeling going into game four against somebody?
Pretty good? We're gonna be dust and none of you
will remember me and I won't remember you, and the
sun's gonna explode. So there's that. I feel like that's
how he would answer that question.
Speaker 1: I'm just surprised that he didn't end up as like
the headliner in an emo band or something with the
way that he talks, or just.
Speaker 2: Like why are we sure he's not actually Batman? Also
rule it out, I can't, I won't.
Speaker 1: We need someone needs to do like the we'll photoshop
the Batman mask on him and see if it kind
of lines up with the drawl on and everything.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what nobody's ever seen Joe Mizoula and
Batman in the same place.
Speaker 1: So well, didn't Jalen Brown or just to him dress
up as Batman the one year was Joemanzuol as a
coach back then? No, that was Grant Williams.
Speaker 2: That's a pretty blatant attempt to throw us off the scent.
I feel like I agree with you.
Speaker 1: Do you have anything else? I hope you enjoyed being
right well? If anything, I feel like these might be
nice little miniature ego boosts for you the past week
or two, so hopefully I do.
Speaker 2: I do feel pretty good about the last two. But
you know, uh, it's just just being set up to fail.
When you inevitably asked me to remember something that is
non trivial again, I won't be able to do it.
So thank you for that exercise in and for the
confidence boost. Thanks everybody for listening, for watching rate Review. Subscribe,
Tell your friends, Tell your enemies. I wish I could
come up with a cool Batman quote to close with,
but now I can't remember, so just we.
Speaker 1: Also are not wearing any hockey pants.
Speaker 2: Yep or paths, whichever. It just don't do either. If
you're trying to fight crime, it looks ridiculous. Shouts pregnant
