Speaker 1: Look at that lighthouse. That's the ultimate expression of foulo
Speaker 1: centric technocracy, violating mother Sky.
Speaker 2: I thought they were just toss up boats, could see them.
Speaker 1: No March, Everything penus shaped is bad.
Speaker 3: Four Finger discount dude.
Speaker 4: Welcome to four Finger Discounts. But this week we're here
Speaker 4: to review an episode that, honestly, I've been very looking
Speaker 4: forward to getting stuck into. It's an episode that is
Speaker 4: very divisive at the time. Apparently it was absolutely just
Speaker 4: panned by critics, panned by fans. How dare you do this,
Speaker 4: Matt silence to us diehoud Simpsons fans, it is that
Speaker 4: ninety show.
Speaker 5: I'm Dando and I am guy. It's coming to fresh
Speaker 5: from the fresh from the nineties. This was a very
Speaker 5: pleasurable step back in time for me. I've got to say,
Speaker 5: I mean, look, the episode had it's pros and cons, shall.
Speaker 4: We say, but I think it had way more pros
Speaker 4: and cons though.
Speaker 5: I really am I can't see the issue. I don't.
Speaker 4: I am flabbergasted. I don't understand. It's season nineteen, everybody, right,
Speaker 4: I get we still want some continuity, but I think
Speaker 4: Matt does a good enough job at establishing at the
Speaker 4: start that this is just not gonna be one of
Speaker 4: those canon ones. It's just gonna be one that where
Speaker 4: you just we fuck around with things. It's just gonna
Speaker 4: be a bit of fun. It's more of a parody
Speaker 4: of the floating timeline than anything.
Speaker 5: It is. Let me put it to you this way,
Speaker 5: yeah back when, let me take you way way way
Speaker 5: back in time, backb even on the nineties, the time
Speaker 5: and space to the nineteen seventies and even the early
Speaker 5: nineteen eighties when I was reading Marvel comic books, and
Speaker 5: one of the titles that I enjoyed most was called
Speaker 5: what If Now.
Speaker 4: And Matt's I'm a big comic book fan.
Speaker 5: People will be aware of what If because Disney, Pluses
Speaker 5: and Marvel have turned it into a TV series. But
Speaker 5: what they did was the fine folks at Marvel, Stanley,
Speaker 5: et cetera recognized, Okay, we've got established timelines and established
Speaker 5: cannon for various characters, but what if here's a couple
Speaker 5: of titles or a couple of things they had on
Speaker 5: the covers. What if the Avengers had never been What
Speaker 5: if Spider Man had kept his six arms? What if
Speaker 5: Jane Foster had found the Hammer of Thought? What if
Speaker 5: Everyone You Dared Evil was blind?
Speaker 4: It's anthology of interest for fit drama, the what if machine?
Speaker 4: What if Spider Man had joined the Fantastic Four, all
Speaker 4: this kind of stuff, and it's the stuff that comic
Speaker 4: book nerds and look nerds.
Speaker 5: It's fun nerds. Are any strips to go? Wouldn't it
Speaker 5: be finish? Deadhead? Wouldn't it be interesting in that? Just like that?
Speaker 5: And if you push it, well, I saw myself as
Speaker 5: a comic book guy on the on the common go.
Speaker 5: And this is why they'll never make it a little
Speaker 5: at the Rings movie, which is not a bad gag
Speaker 5: in the overall scheme of thanks, but that's how I
Speaker 5: viewed this episode. It's a it's a little branch off.
Speaker 4: It's just fun. It's through the nineties. Oh yeah, I
Speaker 4: thought it was just cool seeing the Simpsons, who were
Speaker 4: arguably the most iconic pop culture license of the nineties.
Speaker 4: There weren't many more bigger ones in the.
Speaker 5: Simpsons and seeing them view through a nineties len.
Speaker 4: Living in the nineties, but not as if the Simpsons
Speaker 4: were a part of just the pop culture world. It
Speaker 4: was just the sixth were actually part of the world
Speaker 4: in the real world. They were the biggest thing in
Speaker 4: the nineties, arguably besides well Scipho Get's reference here as well.
Speaker 4: Cipher was another big one. It was just cool seeing
Speaker 4: the world's collide, it was to Punt. Having attended.
Speaker 5: Having said all that, I mean, it's not a great
Speaker 5: episode in terms. I mean, the story's kind of flimsy,
Speaker 5: and I didn't mind it.
Speaker 4: I thought it felt like a nineties teen one of
Speaker 4: those nineties movies where you know where it's going. It's
Speaker 4: kind of cliche, but it's still a couple of good
Speaker 4: songs here and there that make you sort of feel things. Yeah,
Speaker 4: Empire Records. It's kind of wacky, kind of silly, but
Speaker 4: like you still enjoy it because it felt like a
Speaker 4: time capsule. I guess it's kind of felt like a
Speaker 4: nineteen ninety seventeen comedy in my opinion.
Speaker 5: That's a good way of putting it, certainly, And I
Speaker 5: guess that it didn't really I suppose as job wasn't
Speaker 5: to reveal anything new about Homer in Marge's relationship or
Speaker 5: anything like that, or their family dynamic. I suppose it
Speaker 5: took a little bit of a diversion here and there,
Speaker 5: and look, some parts actually worked, but a lot of
Speaker 5: it was just, oh, you're kind of playing the hits here,
Speaker 5: and I know, sometimes we don't mind playing the hits.
Speaker 5: Sometimes we enjoy seeing what is it, five faces for
Speaker 5: radio or good Faces for radio.
Speaker 4: Well, when they spend when they spent a lot of
Speaker 4: episodes playing the shits.
Speaker 5: That's true. Sometimes it's good to get the greatest hits.
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, I just thought at various times because this
Speaker 4: is an Avana story essentially, it's the story of Kirk
Speaker 4: Obain's rise and fall through Homer, I was getting Homer's
Speaker 4: Barbershop Quartet vibes one of those episodes where you could
Speaker 4: argue that episode's not cannon either because it's never referenced
Speaker 4: really again, no, I mean, it doesn't fuck around with
Speaker 4: the timeline essentially, but it's just one of those things where, wait,
Speaker 4: they were in this huge like a global phenomenon. It
Speaker 4: doesn't really makes sense because it's never acknowledging and where
Speaker 4: all these money go all that kind of stuff. Here,
Speaker 4: it's kind of the same as I said, it also
Speaker 4: is the timeline with it in the nineties. But if
Speaker 4: you are a Beatles fan, you really enjoy that episode
Speaker 4: Homes barber Quartet, But you can still enjoy it even
Speaker 4: if you're not a Beatles fan. This one here, I
Speaker 4: feel like I put it on for Elliott the other day,
Speaker 4: which I was quite shocked at the needle moment, but
Speaker 4: obviously it's explained as a joke later.
Speaker 5: Wrong.
Speaker 4: But he really enjoyed this. But I really enjoyed it
Speaker 4: because I'm a Navana fan and I got the references.
Speaker 4: I thought he did a really good job in this episode.
Speaker 4: I really enjoyed it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'll tell you what. I'm well sort of jumping
Speaker 5: ahead the favorite moments here, but when they kicked into
Speaker 5: politically and correct, I'm like, not a bad song.
Speaker 4: But most of are just parodies of Navana, so oh yeah,
Speaker 4: very much of the.
Speaker 5: All parodies of Navana and other bands of the grunge eur.
Speaker 5: Oh god, damn it. I just realized that there might
Speaker 5: be you might hit me with a trivia question, and
Speaker 5: I'm thinking, oh, should have written this down.
Speaker 4: No, I've actually got nothing in my trivia yet. I'll
Speaker 4: just wing him on the spot. I'm going to do it.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna do one now though. Oh okay, but I
Speaker 5: guess I was looking at it also through looking at
Speaker 5: the relationship of Homer and Marge, and I guess it
Speaker 5: took it in a slightly different direction. We always tend
Speaker 5: to view Marge as well. Homer's definitely punching above his weight,
Speaker 5: and Marge perhaps sidelining her own dreams and her own
Speaker 5: ambitions and maybe your own sort of self worth to
Speaker 5: some degree by quite unquite settling the Homer.
Speaker 4: But but I didn't fear that watching this one though.
Speaker 4: Homa wasn't holding her back really in this I mean,
Speaker 4: she had big dreams, but she was going to She
Speaker 4: had big dreams go to college. She was like, yeah, sure,
Speaker 4: I'll work hard so you can go to college.
Speaker 5: He wasn't holding your back. He was working hard so
Speaker 5: you could go. That's true. I guess one thing that
Speaker 5: I was thinking was about how these two compliment each other.
Speaker 5: And I guess in the real original canon Simpsons timeline,
Speaker 5: how they I guess how Homer provides Marge with the
Speaker 5: unconditional love that was maybe missing it in her childhood,
Speaker 5: or the complete attention, complete focus, like this woman is
Speaker 5: the world and I'm the one who sees that. I'm
Speaker 5: the one who gets to give it to And yeah,
Speaker 5: Marge is clear like that's great love. It terrible Jela personas.
Speaker 5: Homer's self worth gets boosters as well as like, here's
Speaker 5: this incredible woman who's actually.
Speaker 4: In love with me, in love with me, so just
Speaker 4: how we feel all the I wake up with day
Speaker 4: and go how why I don't care.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna tell I'm just gonna ride this train until
Speaker 5: it goes up the tracks, mainly due to my poor locomotive.
Speaker 4: Ship't don't let him meet Professor August.
Speaker 5: That's the only I probably would have not been Professor
Speaker 5: August certainly dressed like him. Okay, other than the sandals.
Speaker 5: The sandals are terrible. What does he say to the
Speaker 5: to the faculty lounge. What are those bikes called? I
Speaker 5: don't know, but there's there's like reclining bike. That's like
Speaker 5: it's just.
Speaker 4: They're not pompous, but you're just like, what are you doing?
Speaker 5: It's actually bitter for the It's a bike.
Speaker 4: Yes, bike, here's the thing rolls reverse right If this
Speaker 4: was a story. Season nineteen, Homer has a dream. Marge
Speaker 4: takes up a job to pay for Homer's dream. He
Speaker 4: then has a manager there who's a hot woman who
Speaker 4: he falls for, and then leaves Marge to go with
Speaker 4: the hot woman, we would be how dare you what
Speaker 4: a brick here on? She's going March not a very
Speaker 4: good person. I know that the story is supposed to
Speaker 4: be that home is holding her back, but we've seen
Speaker 4: how every other couple of Springfields living at that point
Speaker 4: in time, they're just the same.
Speaker 5: I don't think he's holding her back. Yeah. The other
Speaker 5: thing is, though, I mean, these characters are going to
Speaker 5: be what nineteen twenty? Yeah? Is that so their kids?
Speaker 5: Their kids haven't really worked it out yet, just figuring
Speaker 5: out who she is and what she wants. And sometimes
Speaker 5: you get led astray by a worldly gentleman who's you know,
Speaker 5: down with the down with the matriarchy. I was getting.
Speaker 4: Have you ever seen the movie Loser with Jason Binks.
Speaker 5: I haven't, actually I know of it. It's Yeah, by
Speaker 5: the director of Clueless, and it's Yeah Jason Biggs and
Speaker 5: Mina Savari from American Pie.
Speaker 4: And so clips of that movie were used in the
Speaker 4: film clip four teenage dirt Bag, one of the most
Speaker 4: iconic songs of my childhood.
Speaker 5: Right, well done by your buddy bring them Yeah.
Speaker 4: So if you haven't listened to my one of my
Speaker 4: fat interviews, have ever done check out Brendan Brown the
Speaker 4: least thing of Weeks. He came on the show and
Speaker 4: we talked about Comeber what episode. I think it was
Speaker 4: taught abut his career in the end, I think it did.
Speaker 4: But it was just really, really, really fun. But that
Speaker 4: was the first time that I heard the song with
Speaker 4: the word gun still not cut out because they played
Speaker 4: it on the sound. Yeah, it was just in the I.
Speaker 5: Always wondered what he brought to school. I guess it
Speaker 5: was a gun.
Speaker 4: Yes, so it was a gun, and you can listen
Speaker 4: to it on Spotify and it's just not cut out,
Speaker 4: And just like at the time, it.
Speaker 5: Was like you heard the word Strangely, it's probably more
Speaker 5: triggering now that it's bizarre are actually bringing guns to school?
Speaker 4: I mean that they were at the time as well.
Speaker 4: That's why they had to cut it out because of
Speaker 4: the Columbine. But I just remember that movie being it's
Speaker 4: the first time I heard the word gun in the
Speaker 4: Jope Bag song. And you watch it and you think
Speaker 4: that the movie is going to be about what the
Speaker 4: film because the film clip has a little story to
Speaker 4: itself and it's sort of like takes. It's got the actors,
Speaker 4: it's got Jason and Mina Mina playing roles in the
Speaker 4: film clip, and you just assume that Loser is going
Speaker 4: to be the teenage Joe Bag film clip. But in
Speaker 4: movie Forum it's not at all as Jason Biggs is
Speaker 4: a loser who goes unique falls for this girl, but
Speaker 4: she's having a relationship with her professors.
Speaker 5: That's right. So that's why I was just like, this
Speaker 5: kind of feels like loser. Okay, interesting, Yeah, I'm about
Speaker 5: to check out Loser one of these it's not that great.
Speaker 4: Well maybe or maybe I could not, but yeah, over all,
Speaker 4: I really really enjoyed this episode just purely because being
Speaker 4: a nineties kid Nirvana fan references to sign I think
Speaker 4: I really like the Seinfeld moment that.
Speaker 5: Felt a bit on the nose to me, and all
Speaker 5: at a lot of the references just felt like, hey,
Speaker 5: remember the nineties. I felt like, what was that series?
Speaker 5: We love the nineties? They had those I don't remember
Speaker 5: that we love the nineties. It sounds like, right up
Speaker 5: my alley, either VH one or MTV or okay, okay,
Speaker 5: they had all those things where yeah, let's get together
Speaker 5: a bunch of comedians or a bunch of personalities from
Speaker 5: and also now yeah, yeah, like twenty to one or
Speaker 5: something like that.
Speaker 4: And I have to explain to the person, is because
Speaker 4: you have no idea howther.
Speaker 5: Worse someone's a comedian. Well, you know they drag out
Speaker 5: Mark McGrath from Sugar Sugar Ray or.
Speaker 4: Sugar Ray, Sugar ray? Was that every morning?
Speaker 5: That's that's about to call them sugar fly for some reason.
Speaker 5: I'm like they so they had a big was their
Speaker 5: song fly just want to fly? Yeah?
Speaker 4: Yeah, that that flies in there somewhere and sugar.
Speaker 5: Like flies to sugar. I've gone beyond slang. Adris is like,
Speaker 5: oh the flies are getting on the sugar wave them away.
Speaker 4: That terrible man, That's that's where he cares that now
Speaker 4: us talking about the flies to sugar, shoe fly, sugar fly.
Speaker 5: Sugar fly back on. But yeah, it did. It did
Speaker 5: feel a bit that way in some regards, But look
Speaker 5: a lot of it. I enjoyed. It's it's certainly not
Speaker 5: top tier, but it's it's no, it's no lurs Wigan Jesus.
Speaker 4: It was only up from there, wasn't it?
Speaker 5: The only way is up? My favorite? What were your
Speaker 5: favorite moments from the episode? Like I said, the politically
Speaker 5: incorrect lyrics when they kicked in. I'm like, I know
Speaker 5: they've taken the piss, and what is it? What's what's
Speaker 5: the tune?
Speaker 4: Because I thought it was Lithium, right, But on on
Speaker 4: IMDb one of the users says it's the cover of
Speaker 4: the song, which wasn't one of the more popular songs.
Speaker 4: I know it's Francis Farmer will Have Her Revenge on
Speaker 4: second right, I know the song, and I'm like, is.
Speaker 5: That on Bleach? I don't think it's on never Mind.
Speaker 5: That's not never Mind.
Speaker 4: No, that's that's on the one that's sort of just
Speaker 4: like B sides and shit, I'm pretty sure maybe it
Speaker 4: is on in Utero. I think it might be on
Speaker 4: in uter that they're like, follow up, Yeah, so Bleach.
Speaker 5: Bleach is the ep pride to never Mind, right.
Speaker 4: So yeah, so you had never Mind was the first
Speaker 4: big album, and you had that so about a Girl
Speaker 4: was on Bleach, right, So that was the first one
Speaker 4: where it's like, oh, these guys are pretty good. And
Speaker 4: then never Mind came out boom, and then in Utero,
Speaker 4: which was a different style of music, but they enjoyed it.
Speaker 5: No, I liked in Utero a lot.
Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure, Francis Farmers on that, on that, but
Speaker 4: I heard this and I'm just like, this just sounds
Speaker 4: like I'm so because I thought it was I thought
Speaker 4: it was lithium.
Speaker 5: Regardless, I'm sure it was it was.
Speaker 4: That's the beauty about Nirvana songs, right, you can you
Speaker 4: can take Nirvana songs and play them in the form
Speaker 4: of lullabys and they sound like really good lollaby songs.
Speaker 4: They're just really good melodies.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yeah, or in any way. I mean, firos
Speaker 5: was kind of a letdown after Fury Road. Sorry, this
Speaker 5: is a tangent, but that's wait a minute, the guys
Speaker 5: have a stroke that the he's talking about. I'm in
Speaker 5: somewhere with the trust Man. Furiosa was kind of a
Speaker 5: let down after Fury Road. Not not as good, but
Speaker 5: the trailer has like this, not even it's not a
Speaker 5: metal version of great Now. I forgot that was it?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 4: No, no, no, yeah, Madness of the World. Yeah, but
Speaker 4: it's yeah, I mean the David Bowie song who Nevana covered.
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, so it's originally yeah, yeah, I'm an idiot,
Speaker 5: Zach cut all this out. I'm absolutely useless.
Speaker 4: So David Bowie's David Bowie song, and then Ivana covered
Speaker 4: it for their unplug sessions and.
Speaker 5: Then it's on the It's on the trailer for Burio,
Speaker 5: but in this very sort of not operatic version. But
Speaker 5: it's like, oh yeah, that kind of works. So what
Speaker 5: I'm saying is Devana, they're pretty good. I took the
Speaker 5: scenic round to get there, but yeah, that was not bad.
Speaker 5: I've told let me give you another story that's maybe
Speaker 5: slightly better, or at least an anecdote. Yeah. No, I
Speaker 5: mean I was around, well, of course I was around
Speaker 5: in the early nineties, but I remember this very very
Speaker 5: distinctly because it really felt like a change of the guard. Yeah.
Speaker 5: I was staying with my sister in Hong Kong and
Speaker 5: we had MTV in Australia, but that this is MTV
Speaker 5: all day round, as opposed to MTV like a couple
Speaker 5: of couple of hours on a Friday night. And the
Speaker 5: songs that kept playing and the clips that were really
Speaker 5: big were things like black or White, and particularly the
Speaker 5: one I remember is Yes, I think it was too
Speaker 5: legit to quick it by Hammer, and they had these
Speaker 5: massive film clips. They were just like these huge extravaganzas.
Speaker 5: Everything was overproduced. To the max, and it just felt
Speaker 5: like this this bubble is about the pop man. This
Speaker 5: just feels like entertainment's just getting too big, too unwieldy.
Speaker 5: And then about a month after me being there, here's
Speaker 5: this new band, added Fiata called him to Dan. It's like,
Speaker 5: why MTV, why behide this person? They're terrible, But you
Speaker 5: know you hear you know, the opening riff of smells
Speaker 5: like teen spirit, and honestly it feels like, oh ship,
Speaker 5: we've just reset the world changed. Yeah, we've absolutely gone
Speaker 5: back to formula. It's fantastic. So that's something I'll never
Speaker 5: forget about in Thevana and something I always really appreciate
Speaker 5: about him. It's like they just almost grab popular culture
Speaker 5: by the scruffer neck and said Michael Jackson hammer, sit
Speaker 5: the fuck down, shoe fly, shoe fly, make way for
Speaker 5: Mark McGrath. This has been gay's pop culture coin.
Speaker 4: One thing for me is I always look back and
Speaker 4: go to shave it. I hate that I missed Nirvana
Speaker 4: because they were done by ninety three ninety four, right
Speaker 4: because Klonel passed Bay ninety four, the band was essentially
Speaker 4: done by like ninety three. Oh yeah, they weren't. They
Speaker 4: were on the downfall in the sense that they weren't
Speaker 4: they were rocky, they were splitting out. Just Kurt wasn't
Speaker 4: in the good place. You can't really remember much shit
Speaker 4: before you're like four or five, and I was five
Speaker 4: and ninety three. So I have memories of my next
Speaker 4: door neighbor who her name was Daddy L and she
Speaker 4: was sort of like the older kid who'd always like,
Speaker 4: I'd go over her house and she'd show me some
Speaker 4: albums and things like that. I remember she would play Nirvana,
Speaker 4: but I don't know whether that was whilst I was
Speaker 4: still a band or whether that was Post's death. But
Speaker 4: my earliest memories in Navana were just this cool girl
Speaker 4: next you just pie Nevana.
Speaker 5: One might say you were almost in utero at the time. Yeah,
Speaker 5: exactly right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I just I have no memories of them
Speaker 4: being a band at the time I was. My childhood
Speaker 4: was just the groove town. Was the Groovetown? That's one
Speaker 4: of my trivia questions.
Speaker 5: But anyway, that's one that all fail because I've already
Speaker 5: forgot the name. But that was also a good piss
Speaker 5: take of just the new Jack swing and love to You.
Speaker 4: That's boys to men.
Speaker 5: So I think it's boised men.
Speaker 4: I feel like they're a default band when you hear
Speaker 4: a song that you're like, it's boised to men, right.
Speaker 5: Very much? Slow Dancer proms, Yes.
Speaker 4: Yes, what's the other song that end of time?
Speaker 5: I think we're singing them in exactly the same although
Speaker 5: we've come to the end of the real end of
Speaker 5: the road. Yes, so don't really be dancing out with
Speaker 5: your best girl at prom because like, wait a minute,
Speaker 5: you're going after college and you're probably going to sleep
Speaker 5: with this closing time. Meanwhile, I'm going to go work
Speaker 5: at Laser Tag. But yeah, but good, good soundtrack all round.
Speaker 5: And I thought sad Gasm songs are actually pretty good
Speaker 5: song they were, They're my favorite.
Speaker 4: But also I really like Margarine as it's good Serene
Speaker 4: as well.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I just liked them sort of. I think
Speaker 5: the professor really embodied a but just the early days
Speaker 5: of political correctness. Now we have quote unquote who woke culture.
Speaker 4: We had this in the nineties that just went all
Speaker 4: the way over it didn't he Oh yeah, anything that's
Speaker 4: checked like a penis is bad.
Speaker 5: Man. You've got audiences in twenty two before going you know,
Speaker 5: he's onto.
Speaker 4: Something he's got. I just really enjoyed. I thought you
Speaker 4: about to l like this. It's kind of like a
Speaker 4: Devil's Advocate. It's kind of random, kind of silly. It's
Speaker 4: not as good as Devil's Advocate. Obviously, nothing will be.
Speaker 4: But throwing the oxygen, throwing the things. Where would I
Speaker 4: get my oxygen? Makes no sense.
Speaker 5: I should have looked this up before him. But I
Speaker 5: don't know if it was in the nineties of the
Speaker 5: two thousand, but oxygen bars were kind of okay, yeah,
Speaker 5: where you could just go and get like pure H
Speaker 5: two own and apparently get you not high, but walt feeling.
Speaker 5: I feel kind of refreshed, kind of like a like
Speaker 5: a detox in some way comes out of the store
Speaker 5: where we get my oxygen world rusty. So yeah, we're
Speaker 5: my favorites. What did you enjoy?
Speaker 4: So I've already gone through mine, So Oxygen, the sid
Speaker 4: and just the songs in general, because I saw a
Speaker 4: really sweet moment and just that the song choice as
Speaker 4: well of Bittersweet Symphony was in here closing time. Those
Speaker 4: songs just epitomize the nineties, you know, like not the
Speaker 4: nineties pop, nineties rock, you know what I mean? Like
Speaker 4: Bittersweet Symphony was huge from when I was a child. Yeah,
Speaker 4: and they got in trouble because they copied Rolling Stones obviously,
Speaker 4: but in closing.
Speaker 5: A little bit bad. It was it Richard Ashcroft from
Speaker 5: Yeah the verb yeah, because I mean the Stone's got
Speaker 5: enough money, can't get rid to the bar.
Speaker 4: But closing Time for me, whenever you hear closing time,
Speaker 4: you get taken back to ninet ninety seven. Right, It's
Speaker 4: just you get sucked. It's like a time capture. You
Speaker 4: showed back to closing time at a nightclub in the
Speaker 4: who's the band?
Speaker 5: Subsonic?
Speaker 4: Yeah, something sonic, isn't it? Yeah, Closing Time is sung
Speaker 4: by semi sonic Sam, Yeah, I knew something Sonic. Yeah,
Speaker 4: that's a great song really, But he's my anecdote, right,
Speaker 4: So we're talking about songs that sounded the same, right,
Speaker 4: because we all singing under the end of the bl
Speaker 4: blah blah. So my friend of mine, local musician Nathan six,
Speaker 4: I'll give him a shout out right changing sex six
Speaker 4: six S do W E c K T S six Right, Okay,
Speaker 4: he has a child and he was okay, yeah, and
Speaker 4: his child he's a guitarist, like he's a musician and
Speaker 4: his son's playing like guitar, so just like strumming it. Yeah,
Speaker 4: he's singing the A, B C right, and then towards
Speaker 4: the end of it he's sort of like flubs the
Speaker 4: losing gaze aby. Now twin good twin maybe singing to it.
Speaker 4: Either way, it's like he realizes in that moment he's
Speaker 4: like twin killed twin kirl. Now no, wait a minute,
Speaker 4: let's say song. You can see that Cole is going.
Speaker 4: He transitioned into another song without realizing. He gets halfway
Speaker 4: through the second version goes, wait a.
Speaker 5: Minute, the words, the whole words alive. There are only
Speaker 5: six songs in everything. Active Creation is a slide variation
Speaker 5: from there on.
Speaker 4: You can see the pause and anyone starts clapping, and
Speaker 4: you can see that and his head's going, don't clap.
Speaker 5: This is.

Speaker 4: of these guys who, yes, was very big in the
Speaker 4: in the nineties and probably prior to from the I'm
Speaker 4: going to say from the sixties to the nineties, but
Speaker 4: even probably before then, learned man that experienced in worldliness,
Speaker 4: basically just being horn dogs to the young students, let
Speaker 4: me teach you a few things about, young lady. I
Speaker 4: have taught you about literature and art, and now it's
Speaker 4: time for the ways of love. May I kiss you,
Speaker 4: but yeah, that's then couching it in a very PC way.
Speaker 4: I mean, these days apparently well I don't know if
Speaker 4: they still are called soy boys or something like that,
Speaker 4: but in the nineties we called them snags sensitive new
Speaker 4: age guys. That's what I ate from buddies on a
Speaker 4: Saturday morning. There are good snags that you get off
Speaker 4: the new age guys. That's what I was eating it.
Speaker 5: You're eating me without making sense, the varying me. But yeah,
Speaker 5: you would have these guys who would essentially, you know,
Speaker 5: I really respect you and at the same time, I
Speaker 5: really want to jump your bones, but I'm not going
Speaker 5: to do it without your Yeah. Another phrase from the nineties,
Speaker 5: but maybe the eighties, probably just from Martin Light to Scollnest,
Speaker 5: but they would couch their horn dog tendencies in a
Speaker 5: great deal of respect and admiration for the divine feminine,
Speaker 5: you know they're not so basically just like babe, I
Speaker 5: really want to slam.
Speaker 4: There comes a point in time in life where you
Speaker 4: think that that's you know, girls just want you to
Speaker 4: be no emotional and consider it. If I say that
Speaker 4: sit to Nicholas, she'd go fuck.
Speaker 5: Off, mate. We get here out of what There are
Speaker 5: times when it's a fine line to walk. One wants
Speaker 5: to be respectful.
Speaker 4: One ye, Nikola never bought that ship. Never just oh yeah,
Speaker 4: look nick wants me to be nice, but not be
Speaker 4: a dickhead.
Speaker 5: That's the thing.
Speaker 4: Yes, that'd be a simp.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's simp that's the other word. Yes, soy boy
Speaker 5: is kind of that's very two thousand and late. Or hey,
Speaker 5: soy boy, simpers is the new hotness. But you gotta
Speaker 5: walk that fine line with me between being respectful of
Speaker 5: your of your romantic partner, but also god damn baby,
Speaker 5: you're so well I can't get your hands off.
Speaker 4: It depends if you want to end up in the
Speaker 4: frien zone of the end zone.
Speaker 5: We learned a bit about what happens after six pm.
Speaker 5: Those were my questions. Did you ask me one?
Speaker 4: Ask you one more? What was the name of the
Speaker 4: little toy Yachtipus?
Speaker 5: Oh damn it bitter sweet and he was playing I

Speaker 4: which confusing now when you google it.
Speaker 5: Because you get that shitty TV show.
Speaker 4: There is a TV show called that ninety. Yeah, did
Speaker 4: they do that eighty show as well? I think they did.
Speaker 4: It went for one season, maybe maybe two. It didn't work,
Speaker 4: But they've done that ninety show. But that's this is
Speaker 4: an actual, like direct sequel to that seventies So that
Speaker 4: eighty show was no reference to it at all around the
Speaker 4: previous and this one was like, hey, it's the original guys,
Speaker 4: but they're older and they've got their owin kids. Now
Speaker 4: are they all in it?
Speaker 5: Kush is not.
Speaker 4: I don't think Kutcher made an appearance.
Speaker 5: No, but Topa Grace is still the lead.
Speaker 4: Well he's not the lead, but he's yeah, he's in it.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: And Laura, Yeah, she's in it.
Speaker 5: And do you have any Laura propon? Yeah? So, and
Speaker 5: does anyone get that job? Did you have anything you've

Speaker 5: you think? Loved it? Such a dope movie. Let's not
Speaker 5: talk about let talk about Robock. We'll do it movie guys.
Speaker 5: We'll do movie guys on Robo Cop. But I look
Speaker 5: at him in that though, and he's like, I can
Speaker 5: see you're not old, but I don't know, you're kind
Speaker 5: of golamish. Maybe it's one hundred and fifty years old.
Speaker 4: Kind of looks like but obviously the guy and Lost
Speaker 4: is a lot better looking. But Lock oh yeah, similar
Speaker 4: kind of facial structure.
Speaker 5: A little bit yeah, which I mean not much.
Speaker 4: We'll kind of give it up on Lost. We're nearly
Speaker 4: the end of season two, okay, And I didn't want
Speaker 4: to say, like I thought Nicholas enjoyed. I said, Nicola
Speaker 4: kind of feels like it's going nowhere, and she's just like, yeah,
Speaker 4: I'm getting the same vibe.
Speaker 5: It's starting to feel like it's we've got a branch
Speaker 5: off and do interesting new ship. There's only so much
Speaker 5: we can do with this.
Speaker 4: Jack has never been into for like five episodes it's
Speaker 4: like they've just run out of shit to do. Yeah,
Speaker 4: it's like backstory, backstory, backstory.

Speaker 4: she was in a movie that I watched on the
Speaker 4: weekend and she was really good in it. Vicky Lewis
Speaker 4: is Beth Marotteini yestiny.

Speaker 4: head banged into a bar by John Lovet's So that
Speaker 4: is one of my favorite stories of ALTA.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we love it.
Speaker 4: It would have been made that story better if it
Speaker 4: didn't bait his head into the bar. If you just
Speaker 4: bitch slapped. Have you seen the video of a guy
Speaker 4: I don't know obviously out of the fight whatever, and
Speaker 4: this guy walks in, kisses the back of his hand
Speaker 4: and his bit slaps him, knock him clean out. Oh
Speaker 4: my goodness, that's one of my favorite videos ever. This
Speaker 4: guy is just like talking shit. This guy walks in,
Speaker 4: doesn't do nothing, goes kiss in the back of his
Speaker 4: hand and slaps this guy. It's the kiss first.
Speaker 5: The kiss is just incredible.

Speaker 4: This felt a bit forced with the thought global woman
Speaker 4: would take care of it. Al Gore could do nothing right.
Speaker 5: I know.
Speaker 4: I just feel like Homer isn't smart enough to make
Speaker 4: these kind of jokes. But you know, they like to
Speaker 4: sleep and sleep sleep.
Speaker 5: I like to show how politically astute they are. Yep.
Speaker 5: But it shouldn't be saying that when Matt's gonna be
Speaker 5: on the net, Salmon thinks he's so SMARTT Salmon, you're
Speaker 5: so smart.
Speaker 4: So Season nineteen Simpsons can't go without having a list
Speaker 4: gag bar It's magazines, out Popular Sayings, red Book, you
Speaker 4: can tell Big and Tall, Halloween Cushion catalog, and then
Speaker 4: it's the memory box. I'm just like, why does every
Speaker 4: I've had one of these moments now, yeah, it's literally
Speaker 4: every moment every episode.

Speaker 4: haven't had much side sho mail season nineteen.
Speaker 5: Have We don't even them blaining.

Speaker 5: Just don't do that.
Speaker 4: And Lisa finds that she's got a college degree. What
Speaker 4: do you mean, how do you have a college dereow?
Speaker 4: I thought that bless you with the unplanned miracle of me,
Speaker 4: as Bart says, and she tries to but there's a
Speaker 4: bar here, tries to explain the logic of was it Lisa,
Speaker 4: if we're ten and two mats yes, So basically it's
Speaker 4: actually not a.
Speaker 5: Bad side gag that she just does this really elaborate
Speaker 5: kind of mathematical equation. It's really just you could have
Speaker 5: done a little long division.
Speaker 4: To eight minus ten.
Speaker 5: Yes, pretty much.
Speaker 4: Yes, But basically this is their way, is Matt's way
Speaker 4: of explaining, Look, the timeline doesn't make sense. Let's just
Speaker 4: have some with it, yes, and don't take it seriously.
Speaker 4: What if yeah, what if? Yes, So margin Homer, they
Speaker 4: moves into the nineties.
Speaker 5: Now, so they're talking about the nineties when, as Homer
Speaker 5: points out, young people did believe in their dreams. It
Speaker 5: really was a kind of thing where it's you can
Speaker 5: work your shitty minimum frame of reference. I was my
Speaker 5: age corresponds with the decades pretty well, and that I
Speaker 5: was born in nineteen sixty nine, so you in your twenties. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 5: I entered the nineteen nineties a fresh face, twenty year old. Yeah,
Speaker 5: this is the time when you were becoming well, you
Speaker 5: were in Homers, you were Homer. I was essentially Homer
Speaker 5: and remain so to this day. Yeah. But it was
Speaker 5: like the nineties felt like, yeah, you know, times are
Speaker 5: a little bit tight in some ways, and you know
Speaker 5: the problems that always exist, but it really feel like wow,
Speaker 5: and things just about possible. We've got this thing called
Speaker 5: the Internet. You can came with just about anyone in
Speaker 5: the world. Learn all these different things, fantastic.
Speaker 4: It's like we grew up. You know, I was a
Speaker 4: nineties child. We had s Club seven saying don't stop,
Speaker 4: never give up was the anthem. But I did like
Speaker 4: that Bart had never heard of the nineties as well,
Speaker 4: if he was probably one of the biggest icons of
Speaker 4: the nineties.
Speaker 5: Very good point.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so margin hope of moving into their apartment and
Speaker 4: I think it was called Springfield Palace. It was his
Speaker 4: various apartments or was the palace.
Speaker 5: It was always a place because they were doing a
Speaker 5: bit of a riff on Melrose Place.
Speaker 4: Of course they work, they said, because of Meloe's Place.
Speaker 5: We had. Yes. By the way, if you are interested
Speaker 5: in the nineties at all, get on YouTube and just
Speaker 5: look up the Melrose Place opening credit.
Speaker 4: I never watched it. I just know how to lock
Speaker 4: the ear was in it.
Speaker 5: She was a bit later when it's because initially was like, yeah,
Speaker 5: we're going to do like a not a serious show
Speaker 5: about you know, well, it was going to be a
Speaker 5: grown up version of Beverly Hills. And it's the same
Speaker 5: guy who created it. Okay, Yeah, we're young and gorgeous
Speaker 5: and we're trying to make it in la And after
Speaker 5: a while it just became.
Speaker 4: Like a weird soapie because who was it that made it?
Speaker 4: Darren Starr star who was the spelling? Aaron Spelling, Aaron spell?
Speaker 5: Oh what was she in? Tory spelling? Was in Tory spelling?
Speaker 5: But yeah, Aaron Spelling was like the executive producer of
Speaker 5: those they Yes.
Speaker 4: Was it because he has something to do with those shows?
Speaker 5: Didn't? Yeah? Yeah, Now, whether it was just the Tory
Speaker 5: connection or he actually gave him a little backing because
Speaker 5: you know, he was one of the biggest names in TV.
Speaker 5: I can't remember, but she was like one of the
Speaker 5: original NEPO babies because you're looking at the Castle No.
Speaker 5: Two and going Wow, Luke Perry, Wow, Shannon Doddy ripped
Speaker 5: to both by the way, Wow Jason, all these good
Speaker 5: looking people and Tory Spelling. So she was attracted ish yeah,
Speaker 5: attracted ish Yeah, I have to be attractive adjacent.
Speaker 4: Look at us being or nineteen nineties judging people by
Speaker 4: their looks.
Speaker 5: I know this is not very twenty twenty four of us.
Speaker 4: But basically, so they're moving into the partment. Kirkie is
Speaker 4: still a simp for Luanne Luenne always DTF but not
Speaker 4: a good wife. I don't think no, no, and also
Speaker 4: disrupting his six hour six hours internet download. Yes, get
Speaker 4: her photo of her cheating on him. Marge and Homer
Speaker 4: are eating noodles.
Speaker 2: I'm afraid it's.
Speaker 6: Top Rayman again with you, baby, top Ramen tea like
Speaker 6: coup o noodles. You know he's a Kia foam food
Speaker 6: done do velcrow together.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I'm not ready to do that yet. I
Speaker 2: want to wait until I'm married or at least really
Speaker 2: drunk again.
Speaker 5: One of those things was like, you know what, it's cool.
Speaker 5: I work my minimum wage job. I've got enough to
Speaker 5: get a pack of marlbro lights and a pack of
Speaker 5: Maggie two minute noodles.
Speaker 4: Now do you think they had Marge here say that
Speaker 4: she doesn't have sex until she's married, right, so that
Speaker 4: you would never think that she's having sex with a professor.
Speaker 5: Oh that's a good point. Yeah, I mean I thought
Speaker 5: maybe it was the one concession to the original timeline,
Speaker 5: like it's branched off a little bit, but now it's
Speaker 5: going to go back into the yeah, the ot yeah
Speaker 5: to speak. But that's a really good point about Oh no,
Speaker 5: she's keeping herself pew up.
Speaker 4: So yeah, because if she was sleeping with the professor.
Speaker 5: You'd be like, oh mar oh March, Yeah, what are
Speaker 5: you Luyanne? Yeah?
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I think that that was the sort of
Speaker 4: a litle plot points, so you wouldn't think that she
Speaker 4: slipped in with the professor.
Speaker 5: Maybe, I don't know.
Speaker 4: So now there are Groupstone Records and home is in
Speaker 4: an inoffensive urban light hip hop smooth groove band.

Speaker 5: Guy Davis. We now return you to that ninety show.
Speaker 4: Marge says that the relationship is about to unravel, though,
Speaker 4: like Kevin Costner's career due to her getting into college.
Speaker 5: Yeah, a bit harsh, felt just that.
Speaker 4: Feels like one of those jokes where it's just like
Speaker 4: shoehorn in a little bit.
Speaker 5: It was a bit although, Yeah, Costner's career in the
Speaker 5: nineties was a fascinating series of people now but they're
Speaker 5: not because Horizon, well he was on yellow side with
Speaker 5: the bigger shows on TV. He decided to take all
Speaker 5: his money mortgage some of his many properties and like,
Speaker 5: I'm gonna self finance my great American Western that nobody
Speaker 5: went to see. He's like, I'm gonna make it in
Speaker 5: four parts. No one went to see the first part,
Speaker 5: and now Netflix is like, we'll pick up the rest
Speaker 5: for the pennies on the dollar. Yeah, bad luck for Kevin,
Speaker 5: although I find it cold water World. What a world?
Speaker 5: What a world? Water World? War? All right? Mars.
Speaker 4: Basically, so she's got into college here and home is
Speaker 4: kind of annoyed, and she's like, it's going to be
Speaker 4: an expensive dream, and he gets, you know what, you
Speaker 4: deserve it, so he says, I'm going to go.
Speaker 5: Make a dumblast joke about college and collage. Yea, I
Speaker 5: did not appreciate it.
Speaker 4: So Homer says he's going to go make money to
Speaker 4: so she can pay for her college by going back
Speaker 4: and getting job with his dad. And grandpa owns a
Speaker 4: laser tag, which we're big in the nineties and I
Speaker 4: still kids still enjoyed them now, but they're not like
Speaker 4: the thing anymore. They feel dated now, like you're playing
Speaker 4: laser tag. It's like this feels this feels like when
Speaker 4: you put out the PlayStation one.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they do. They have laser tag at Laser Questions. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 5: I ever did it twice. I think I maybe did
Speaker 5: it once. And my nephew Rory actually had like a
Speaker 5: home game of.
Speaker 4: Laser tag them as well. Yeah, the blue things that
Speaker 4: struck around your chest. Yeah, we'll give you a little shot.
Speaker 4: I might even get a shock mine.
Speaker 5: It's just a shot really like malfunctioned.
Speaker 4: I was shocked when I got shocked. Didn't say that come,
Speaker 4: but mine would just make like a beeping sound. Yeah okay, yeah,
Speaker 4: So anyway, the pussy version, yes, so you know, he
Speaker 4: says to Grandpa, I need money. We need money for none.
Speaker 5: Of your business.
Speaker 4: They give me a job at your business, and Hope
Speaker 4: turns off the machine. The kids are beating up at
Speaker 4: Laser quest anyway, Margin arrives at college and she's loving
Speaker 4: just the scenery and just the vibe and coming book.
Speaker 5: Guys.
Speaker 4: There, as you were saying earlier, sitting on the grass,
Speaker 4: this place is just.
Speaker 2: Like the brochure autumnly ball sessions.
Speaker 1: And that is why the Lord of the Rings can
Speaker 1: never be filmed.
Speaker 4: So this is meant to be a parody of Kabaye.
Speaker 4: But this doesn't feel like just an early nineties parent.
Speaker 4: It feels just like the nineties decade page. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 4: well Scie Felt wasn't around. Oh I guess it just
Speaker 4: started when when was a thing?
Speaker 5: That's funny my theater in decades is you know you
Speaker 5: always talk about them, they're always broken into halves.
Speaker 4: Well, for me, the nineties started in ninety four. That's
Speaker 4: all I can remember. I can't remember before that.
Speaker 5: That's the thing. The first half of the nineties feels
Speaker 5: very different to the second half. And it's just as
Speaker 5: the first half of the eighties feels very different to
Speaker 5: the second half.
Speaker 4: When you get to like nineties playlists, you can tell
Speaker 4: when a song was early nineties, when a.
Speaker 5: Song was late night. Absolutely you can.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel it in the eighties though. Do you
Speaker 4: think that the eighties just sounds like the eighties?
Speaker 5: Oh? No, absolutely not, no, no no. And when you know
Speaker 5: you've got sort of what we commonly viewers eighties nostalgia,
Speaker 5: it's all very neon and dayglow. That's from eighty five onwards. Yeah,
Speaker 5: the first half of the eighties is very bland, it's
Speaker 5: basically bleed over from the seventies. So really okay, oh yeah,
Speaker 5: I mean no, there's a lot of good stuff in there,
Speaker 5: but it's more sort of beige and brown.
Speaker 4: But when was Obviously this is not an iconic song
Speaker 4: of the nineties for me, it is, but the song
Speaker 4: from foot Trot Flats, Oh it oppens, Slice Heaven that's eighties?
Speaker 5: Is that late eighties old? Because I remember dancing out
Speaker 5: it my not a fucking.
Speaker 4: Song right, high school prom I love Shards. That's one
Speaker 4: of the songs where if it comes on, I have
Speaker 4: to listen to it and I smile.
Speaker 5: The entire time. Dave Doblinds in the films, him and
Speaker 5: all these guys just in a pub, just dancing, just dancing.
Speaker 5: What a song? I think I picked up a couple
Speaker 5: of dance moves from the Slice and Slash. A good song.
Speaker 4: Yeah, great song. Yeah, all right, enough about the eighties
Speaker 4: and the nineties. Let's go we should talk about the
Speaker 4: ninety because that's what this episode is. So she's got
Speaker 4: into college and she's really enjoying the vibe of everything,
Speaker 4: and uh, they like to So she goes to the
Speaker 4: cultural history lecture. We bought all you required textbooks, throw
Speaker 4: them away. That just sums up university, in school, school
Speaker 4: in general.
Speaker 5: I'm guessing there are a lot of professors and teachers
Speaker 5: who got into the profession because they saw Robin Williams
Speaker 5: of Dead Poets Society, throw away those textbooks. It's damn
Speaker 5: for me to teach you the actual all the ship
Speaker 5: I teach you life. Yeah, you think you're here to
Speaker 5: learn about literature, You're actually here to learn about life.
Speaker 4: Speaking of Robin Williams, a clip came up on social
Speaker 4: media to day.
Speaker 5: I think it was Twitter. Was he talking about Trump? No, no, no, no.
Speaker 4: It was just it was from Goodbill Hunting where he
Speaker 4: was talking about how he misses his wife's farts. Oh yeah,
Speaker 4: and the what a fucking scene?
Speaker 5: Really good.
Speaker 4: They're the things you remember. Goes, you know, I spent
Speaker 4: all these years with it. But that's the ship I remember.
Speaker 5: But it'd so loud you woke up the dog.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that's the ship you remember.
Speaker 5: Yeah. And I don't know if that's the scene where
Speaker 5: they sort of zoom in on on will that damon
Speaker 5: and the cameras sort of shaking. That's because the camera
Speaker 5: abraider was laughing. Was the oka, Yeah, and Gus van
Speaker 5: sand who directed and said, O kaep it in it works,
Speaker 5: and I really did, Rob Williams Lord.
Speaker 4: Na, the world's never been the same. It's kind of
Speaker 4: like Phil Hartman comedy was never the same really, and
Speaker 4: then as soon as when left the world, it just
Speaker 4: didn't feel the same anymore.
Speaker 5: Lose, like a foundational block, but it felt like a
Speaker 5: piece of the puzzles missing. The puzzle's not going to
Speaker 5: be quite complete again. You can, maybe you know, shape
Speaker 5: someone to be similar to, but Na one of a kind,
Speaker 5: one on one.
Speaker 4: So he's basically Professor August here luring margin with the feminist,
Speaker 4: anti male.
Speaker 5: Well yeah, with his yeah, very very enlightened worldview.
Speaker 1: That's why instead of x X, I think of the
Speaker 1: female genes in a more positive light.
Speaker 2: Plus plus, professor, do you think white male scientists have
Speaker 2: marginalized the contributions of the third world?
Speaker 1: Great question, and the answer is, of course, could a
Speaker 1: tribe a bushmen have invented penicillin? Maybe they already have,
Speaker 1: but no one asked them, No one asked them.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So she's talking to it to Homer about everything she's
Speaker 4: learned in class, and did you say everything every president
Speaker 4: was a straight white man. It's like, oh, okay, I
Speaker 4: see what this guy's doing.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it's a bit of a play on how
Speaker 5: naive you are when you first get your first taste
Speaker 5: of sort of like quote unquoite higher learning. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: and oh my god, yeah, it's in front of her
Speaker 5: eyes the entire time. Oh did you know? Yeah, I
Speaker 5: forgot which pill does what in the matrix? Blue pill
Speaker 5: puts you back in the matrix, right right, yea, yeah,
Speaker 5: because it's all been sort of.
Speaker 4: I'm going back into matrix.
Speaker 5: Mate. How many times have.
Speaker 4: We said I am Cyrus.
Speaker 5: Joey Pants has just got the right idea. Give me
Speaker 5: a rare steak, and you know, I want to be famous,
Speaker 5: not super famous, but just famous enough that I know.
Speaker 5: Have you heard that story about Kevin Bacon about how
Speaker 5: recently he had like a makeup job and like disguises
Speaker 5: so he could go out as not Kevin Bacon. He's like,
Speaker 5: it sucked, really, no one was nice to me. I
Speaker 5: had to stand in life by copy like a chump.
Speaker 5: And it made sense because he's been glad to be normal.
Speaker 5: He's been pretty much famous his entire life, well not
Speaker 5: his entire.
Speaker 4: Life, but He's almost like a meme now, isn't.
Speaker 5: He very much so? But from about the age of
Speaker 5: twenty or so with the original think he was yeah,
Speaker 5: and he's you know, in his mid sixties now. So
Speaker 5: that's two thirds of your life that you've just.
Speaker 4: Been Hey and a person who people want to get
Speaker 4: a photo with and is cool yes, as opposed to yeah,
Speaker 4: I'm got a photo of Kevin Bacon. It's like that's cool.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but not everyone's tacond photos of him all the time.
Speaker 5: It's like, oh, what you mean. I can't leave dunkin
Speaker 5: Donuts with a coffee and a couple of bear claws
Speaker 5: like Ben Affleck. Anyway, I don't know how we got
Speaker 5: to that story.
Speaker 4: But we're talking about Kevin Bacon. How we get to
Speaker 4: Kevin Bacon?
Speaker 5: That's what I was curious about. One of the six
Speaker 5: degrees that Kevin Bacon.
Speaker 4: Marge was falling for Professor's learning. I don't know, Robin
Speaker 4: william Robin Williams, we'll never get there, so.
Speaker 5: Let's get back to where we were. It's a lot
Speaker 5: like this episode of that ninety show that was just
Speaker 5: a what if tangent?
Speaker 4: Yes, it really was.
Speaker 5: It's not official cannon of full finger discount.
Speaker 4: So they're at the front of the university. This is
Speaker 4: where she makes the sound and he was like, that's
Speaker 4: a weird. So I've never heard that sound before.
Speaker 5: Are you sick?
Speaker 4: And so she's falling for the professor after one class.
Speaker 4: So now we cut back and we had a really
Speaker 4: weird sort of like ratcon here with the gas man
Speaker 4: trying to fix the gas, like, this is what's going
Speaker 4: on here. They're telling a story back in the Springford house,
Speaker 4: and it just felt like a bit of a random
Speaker 4: moment that they'll mean to the gas man.
Speaker 5: I felt sorry for gas man. Yeah, monkey out and
Speaker 5: trying to make the gas flow.
Speaker 4: So Marge says that, you know, I was falling from
Speaker 4: my professor more and more. And the guy just keeps
Speaker 4: putting putting down. White males is just white male put down,
Speaker 4: put down, put down. March just getting sucked in because
Speaker 4: of this, And then Marge's study. We did some good
Speaker 4: things something we do this podcast exactly. Yeah, Marge is
Speaker 4: now studying whilst.
Speaker 5: That makes it for so many things.
Speaker 4: This is where he's watching Seinfeld.
Speaker 6: Oh Lane, will you ever find someone who's sponge worthy?
Speaker 2: Professor Margas says the situation comedy is a doom genre.
Speaker 6: Here's what I say to that, No, super you, because
Speaker 6: I am master of my domain new Man.
Speaker 4: You're right sort of shoehorns in all the gags, all
Speaker 4: the quotes. But that's kind of what people were doing
Speaker 4: in the nineties. They were quoting Seinfeld a lot, weren't they.
Speaker 4: But the Master of My Domain we talked about it
Speaker 4: on the episode The Contest of Talking Seiinnfeler. Check it
Speaker 4: out if you haven't already where that didn't feel like
Speaker 4: a quote that anyone would naturally say in real life,
Speaker 4: and that people were trying it.
Speaker 5: Weren't they. Oh yeah, have you seen the Udi that's
Speaker 5: just got all the Seinfeld quotes on it, Lose Loose
Speaker 5: sun has Okay, Yeah, well it's got you know, YadA
Speaker 5: YadA and no soup for U and all that kind
Speaker 5: of stuff. So yeah, I mean, for a show that
Speaker 5: was pretty smart and very you know, well constructed and
Speaker 5: well put together and well acted, it did seem really
Speaker 5: reliant on catchphrases, or it did seem to want to
Speaker 5: make fetch happen.
Speaker 4: It's like once once the first one picked up, they went,
Speaker 4: oh this is something.
Speaker 5: This is something we can Yeah, we can maybe make
Speaker 5: T shirts out of this.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, but do we do merch?
Speaker 5: Do we do some merch?
Speaker 4: We got Uncle Rico, We should definitely do some forking
Speaker 4: a discap merch? Would you guys be interested in the
Speaker 4: Fortking a discap? I'm probably mugs, right, coffee mugs?
Speaker 5: Yeah, or like my head is like a pintalel. I
Speaker 5: think mugs. Yeah.
Speaker 4: But Homer here what she said, I wish you would
Speaker 4: support my comments and my beliefs. And He's like, I
Speaker 4: worked really hard all day to pay for your education.
Speaker 4: They just want to sit there and watching TV. This
Speaker 4: is my support. Yeah, And I'm just like, you know what,
Speaker 4: I'm pro Homer here home has done nothing wrong the
Speaker 4: whole he was keeping it back. It doesn't work in
Speaker 4: this story. He was wasn't really supportive at first, but
Speaker 4: then he worked hard.
Speaker 5: Well, it's pay for education. It's it's misunderstandings and just
Speaker 5: blind spots on the part of I guess both of them.
Speaker 5: When you're at a stage where it's like, oh, I'm
Speaker 5: learning so much about the world and everything else, and
Speaker 5: you know, I've found these interesting things to say or
Speaker 5: interesting ways of looking at the world. And I want
Speaker 5: to share it with the one that I love, and
Speaker 5: they're kind of like, really, just rather watch the footy
Speaker 5: and it's kind of that's where you get your wife
Speaker 5: to the footy as well. Am I actually with the
Speaker 5: right person? And yeah? And on the other hand, you know,
Speaker 5: I was like, really, I'm busting us at the laser quest,
Speaker 5: you know, through Cologe so he can own you. Yeah,
Speaker 5: you're a thing. Yeah that's professor.
Speaker 4: We'll get to that sleazy guy. So he's got marks
Speaker 4: all over his stomach, in his back because the kids
Speaker 4: keep shooting in the laser tag and she was robbing
Speaker 4: his back for him, and she realizes that she's having
Speaker 4: visions of him being a professor.
Speaker 5: August with his toy blazer.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Homer and Marge now in bed with closing time playing.
Speaker 5: That was really it was a poignant yeah kind of
Speaker 5: thing because I mean no lines were needed. You and Nicola,
Speaker 5: of course, have a wonderful relationship. I'm sure you have
Speaker 5: never had moments where you've been laying and you sort
Speaker 5: of have your backstone to one that was like not that,
Speaker 5: oh this person doesn't have sent me. But you may
Speaker 5: have had moments like, oh, we we're not on the
Speaker 5: same page about this. I feel a little distant.
Speaker 4: Well, we never Nickola and I have a rule. You
Speaker 4: never go to bed, never go to be angry. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I've done the same, but every once in a while
Speaker 4: you might work. I hope she doesn't leave me something
Speaker 4: just still there. But closing Time is just a great song.
Speaker 5: It's a great musical accompanying to accompaniment to that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, things aren't going well though for them at all. Meanwhile,
Speaker 4: August is talking up her art and he says, you
Speaker 4: call missed the farm, so he's just make it more
Speaker 4: personal now. And Homer has a little message here I
Speaker 4: miss you, and he somehow makes the turns that into
Speaker 4: a negative.
Speaker 5: I'm like, fuck you, fuck you man.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh thanks, it's just a note for my boyfriend.
Speaker 1: Let me guess he's a high school flame who's preventing
Speaker 1: you from flowering.
Speaker 2: Almost perfect for me. Just look at this note I miss.
Speaker 1: You, actually, Marge. If I may deconstruct that letter when
Speaker 1: he writes I miss you, I is the subject and
Speaker 1: you is the object. You are his object, but.
Speaker 2: Almost so supportive. He's paying for you to go to college.
Speaker 1: He's paying for you like he owns you. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: but that is oppression.
Speaker 2: Well, I know you never say anything that is an
Speaker 2: objective March.
Speaker 1: Your assignment is to think about what I have said
Speaker 1: about your relationship. When is it do before it's too late?
Speaker 4: Steph and how May comes looking for Madge at university
Speaker 4: and they all make fun of his pronunciation of his wam.
Speaker 5: They call him a towny anyway go back to town
Speaker 5: yeah or does he miss? I think his pronounces the
Speaker 5: surname of the artist.
Speaker 4: I think it's the first name because it will say Joe,
Speaker 4: I thought, And then they say anyway anyway, but you
Speaker 4: know they're all making fun of him. Homer walks in
Speaker 4: and she's having a chat with August with the with
Speaker 4: the dreamcatch or whatnot. This is nothing like Animal House.
Speaker 4: I smashed a Beaty's guitar and he sued me successfully.
Speaker 4: Bahoma can't can't sing R and be aniemore. He's just
Speaker 4: he's down trotted. He's just he feels like margin's gonna
Speaker 4: leave him. He's lost his girl and he's what really
Speaker 4: hard for her. So he turns the R and B
Speaker 4: into guitar rock, utilizing as a Then it's grunching or
Speaker 4: something whatever, but it's.
Speaker 5: Great because the word grunge is actually part of the acronym.
Speaker 4: Yes, so now they're sad gasm and they're seemed politically
Speaker 4: in correct. And I've got here it sounds like Luthian,
Speaker 4: but apparently it's Francis Farmer. Anyway, it's it's.
Speaker 5: Catchy, it's brown. Hey, it's white love.
Speaker 6: It's black.
Speaker 5: Step Night, King of Num, colotent.
Speaker 3: Of Hurt, really dark dum.
Speaker 5: Jesse duck dot kurrent Current.
Speaker 1: It's Marvin, your cousin, Marvin Cobain.
Speaker 5: You know that new sound you're looking for, Well, listen
Speaker 5: to this.
Speaker 4: We get a back to the future reference here. Hey,
Speaker 4: it's your cousin.
Speaker 5: It's funny, we're talking about political greatness and all that.
Speaker 5: I mean, some people take back to the Future to
Speaker 5: task because it's like, oh, so you're saying Chuck Berry
Speaker 5: didn't invent rock and roll, that there was actually a
Speaker 5: white man that did it.
Speaker 4: You mean Jonanan didn't, right, imagine Forrest Gump did.
Speaker 5: But you've got people, yeah, very online people that will say, yeah,
Speaker 5: the back the Muture is pretty racist and also, you know,
Speaker 5: kind of kind of sexist.
Speaker 4: I said that a white guy wrote, Okay.
Speaker 5: Can't we just enjoyed Back to the Future, such a
Speaker 5: good movie.
Speaker 4: But Marge leaves for the professor because she ses the
Speaker 4: band and he basically, what is it? He says, he
Speaker 4: walks something.
Speaker 5: This isn't entertainment, this is genocide or something.
Speaker 4: I know, you have a bit of a little test here.
Speaker 4: And she leaves with the professor because I think he
Speaker 4: says something on the lines and the guy's like, I
Speaker 4: can do that, and she jumps on his bike and
Speaker 4: wides off, and I was like, March, what are you doing?
Speaker 4: And then the girl walks up says, can you sew
Speaker 4: my boobs? And you write Marge come back? And I
Speaker 4: just think they painted Homer as really sympathetic throughout this
Speaker 4: entire episode.
Speaker 5: No, we didn't get any jerk house home.
Speaker 4: Well, we designed to feel bad for homework. That's the
Speaker 4: That's what I was getting. I was feeling bad for
Speaker 4: having the entire time. It sounds bad, right because this
Speaker 4: guy's just swiped in and Marge has fallen for It's
Speaker 4: just weird.
Speaker 5: She fell under his spell. Yeah, his academic spell.
Speaker 4: We come back from commercial and mum, why do you
Speaker 4: stop talking for two and a half minutes being in
Speaker 4: a commercial break? I was like, twenty yes, and then
Speaker 4: they're just splitting everything up and she's getting all the goodtuff.
Speaker 4: He's getting like the old the type writer. She's getting
Speaker 4: the computer or whatever.
Speaker 5: He well, he won though, because he's got the LP
Speaker 5: he's been She got the CDs, yes, but what was
Speaker 5: the stock? So he got en wrong and she got Microsoft? Yeah,
Speaker 5: Microsoft a big winner. Enron absolute disaster. Yes.
Speaker 4: Then they say who gets qute Puss? And he breaks
Speaker 4: it and then bittersweet symphony players. It's just it's another
Speaker 4: good use of music.
Speaker 5: Wasn't it. Yeah.
Speaker 4: So then he goes to mos which is now a
Speaker 4: cigar bar, which apparently was a big thing in the
Speaker 4: ninety cigar bars. Yeah, I don't really recall was old enough.
Speaker 4: Marge is now going on tour with Professor August to
Speaker 4: Springfield's most non wheelchair friendly restaurants because he's just a touchebag.
Speaker 4: It's just it's that epitomizes his character, right.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it felt a little much for me, But then,
Speaker 5: you know, we're talking about a twenty four minute sitcom episode.
Speaker 5: Of course we're going to sort of really go for
Speaker 5: the gusto when it comes to stereotyping and whatnot, and
Speaker 5: the oxygen gag here as well, which I liked. That
Speaker 5: was good.
Speaker 4: But Homer sings shave Me, which is a parody of
Speaker 4: rape me.
Speaker 6: Friends have played a bay.
Speaker 5: Shake me with.
Speaker 6: Your eye, irony man.
Speaker 4: We're now at August House and Sadgasm comes on the radio.
Speaker 4: Basically it's like I watched sports too, and he says
Speaker 4: this big melodramatic thing about the end zone or whatever.
Speaker 5: Is this where he says this is an entertainment, this
Speaker 5: is genocide. Yeah, because the Patriots are in the redskins
Speaker 5: en zon. It's like, come on, actually, pretty funny gig
Speaker 5: if it's funny, come on. Oh yeah, this is exactly
Speaker 5: where I've written. Okay, they're overdoing the professor. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 5: they're really laying on the political reckness aspect of it
Speaker 5: really heavily. But also there's the underlying smarminess and douchitess. Yeah.
Speaker 4: And it is the first time he has to go
Speaker 4: at March too because she puts on us the radio
Speaker 4: and Sadgasm comes on.
Speaker 5: He goes, no, I want whale songs, and it's like, oh.
Speaker 4: Shit, So he asked, can I compliment your appearance? May
Speaker 4: I preach you for a kiss? Harassment or willing consent.
Speaker 4: Willing consent.
Speaker 5: She's just like just kiss me like sake.
Speaker 4: It's very much Nicola. If I said can I, I
Speaker 4: always do say, Like, when you're gonna kiss Louise, do
Speaker 4: you say? Do you asked off for concept? But like,
Speaker 4: is this like a mutual eyesight, like okay, we're going
Speaker 4: for a kiss here or do you go, okay kiss you?
Speaker 5: Well, now it's just smooching on us.
Speaker 4: I remember the first time you say the bones jumping
Speaker 4: the bones.
Speaker 5: The first time I kissed, I said, I didn't say,
Speaker 5: can I kiss you? I don't really want to kiss you?
Speaker 5: He said, well, too bad?
Speaker 4: Who are you?
Speaker 5: And I'd rather be going out with Brad Pitt? But
Speaker 5: we can't hit everything we want? Who are Davis? You are?
Speaker 4: Do you remember the first words you said to Louise
Speaker 4: in person?
Speaker 5: Yeah? Was it? So? Was it a blind day? What
Speaker 5: was it? We met on Tinder? Ah? I was Tinder,
Speaker 5: that's right, and we talked online for about a week.
Speaker 5: I think we may I don't know if we chatted
Speaker 5: on the phone at all. We may have with video
Speaker 5: and you can actually put the hand to the ear.
Speaker 5: It actually makes sense. What are you talking about? When
Speaker 5: we met in person. The first thing I said to
Speaker 5: her was, I thought the photo of you was gonna
Speaker 5: be the prettiest thing I saw all night. Nice one,
Speaker 5: and she was gorgeous.
Speaker 4: Nichola walked in on me in a toilet, so I
Speaker 4: was We had a mutual friends party. It was the
Speaker 4: thirtieth of April, because it was the same night that
Speaker 4: the Prince Harry, Prince William and Kate got married. Because
Speaker 4: Nicola said she was watching because she came back from
Speaker 4: Perth that night and she was watching that on the
Speaker 4: television in the airport before she came back. A friend
Speaker 4: of mine, Phil, who've mentioned the show before, my best
Speaker 4: man at my wedding, he said, having a party at
Speaker 4: Someone told Howse she you want to come and I
Speaker 4: was like, I'm just finished radio. I was like, I'm
Speaker 4: pretty toys, id come come?
Speaker 5: Come?
Speaker 4: So we get there and Nichola had a mutual friend
Speaker 4: who knew this person. So I'd never met Nichol before.
Speaker 4: She'd been a jown for like a month before she
Speaker 4: went to Perth for visit. I never met during that time.
Speaker 4: She came back. The first night she came to that party.
Speaker 4: The toilet was in a bathroom, I used a toilet,
Speaker 4: was walking out. She walked in for first once, nicol
Speaker 4: ever said to him, She's like, fuck, you're a cute
Speaker 4: they aren't you.
Speaker 5: That's it.
Speaker 4: Since then, we spent two nights apart together at most,
Speaker 4: so we've just been together ever since.
Speaker 5: Then there was a rewriting history. Next first words were
Speaker 5: in fact light a match. That's a very sweet story.
Speaker 4: Yes, And then I very rarely made moves on girls
Speaker 4: like it was just but I had Nicholas. Like I
Speaker 4: remember saying to Nicola, no, and I was on the radio,
Speaker 4: but I never like used that as like a pickup line.
Speaker 4: But I was just like, I'm a djub on the
Speaker 4: radio and she was like bullshit, and I'm like, no,
Speaker 4: We've got like the logo on my ass, and she
Speaker 4: was like, we'll prove it. And I dropped my pants
Speaker 4: in the street to prove that I had the I've
Speaker 4: got a tedto on my ass of my radio show
Speaker 4: logo lost the bet during the show and I showed
Speaker 4: her that and she was just like, okay, cool, but.
Speaker 5: One might say one a bet.
Speaker 4: But then that's the thing. I was just like, I
Speaker 4: never tried it with anyone else, but for Nicola. For
Speaker 4: some reason, my brain was just like, no, you're going
Speaker 4: to try it with this person? Yeah when you know
Speaker 4: you know, yeah, it was just subconscious I was, but nope,
Speaker 4: keep going, keep trying.
Speaker 5: It'll pay off.
Speaker 4: Yes, and it did pay off, but the guys just
Speaker 4: being a douchebake here ask complimently appearance gets the spooch
Speaker 4: on with March but not having sex because she's not
Speaker 4: having sex to a marriage. We established this already. Homer
Speaker 4: now hates being famous. Every rock star's dream of hating
Speaker 4: being famous. And with our Yanke Vick is covering Shaved
Speaker 4: Me with his own song, and apparently Kirk Obain said,
Speaker 4: I never felt famous until we had covered my song.
Speaker 4: But you know, as Homer says, he he who was
Speaker 4: tired of weird al is tired of life.
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 4: I was never like huge And with our Yankee Vick.
Speaker 5: Songs, no, I think I again.
Speaker 4: I appreciate everything he's done, but respected the game more
Speaker 4: than actually, yeah, well you're the one who's good at.
Speaker 5: This, aren't you. Yeah, I mean you're kind of.
Speaker 4: You've made it a thing. It's like you get all
Speaker 4: these kids bands and was like, no, you're not the Wiggles.
Speaker 4: The Wiggles made this a thing. He's like the he's
Speaker 4: the the Wiggles of that genre to Homer. Homers hate
Speaker 4: has being famous. Of course, So margin August are now
Speaker 4: at the lighthouse. But it's a fellow centric technocracy, violeting
Speaker 4: mother nature.
Speaker 5: It's like they're just told those ships can say.
Speaker 4: No everything Pinischet is bad. And she sees a wedding
Speaker 4: and this is what really this is where it really unravels.
Speaker 4: So she sees a wedding, Oh it's a wedding, or
Speaker 4: slavery's alive and well in Springfield, and you're like, shut.
Speaker 5: Up, they're this guy.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're over egging this particularly said I want to
Speaker 4: get married one day. Was like that make people think
Speaker 4: that women are still stupid. And she calls him associate
Speaker 4: professor jerk and he takes it to heart and he says,
Speaker 4: you know, get denied tenor because the department head it
Speaker 4: was an idiot.
Speaker 5: And then so you could have made that a gag
Speaker 5: as opposed to just a line.
Speaker 4: Yeah, sort of his story wrapping up felt kind of
Speaker 4: I thought, I think it would have been better if
Speaker 4: I guess it was nice to say him get beaten
Speaker 4: up a little bit, wasn't it, because he'd been a
Speaker 4: douche bag. Margine's home on the TV, sing and Margarine.
Speaker 6: Spread Yellow Girl on my pancake cart, Country jun Girl
Speaker 6: in my grocery cart.

Speaker 6: You're not mine, my dream Drene.
Speaker 5: Margarine, Magarine, Margarine, he loves me so much after what I.
Speaker 4: Did to him, And sad Gasamin is the new support
Speaker 4: breaking up and hums hold himself on his manser because
Speaker 4: he's got an addiction for that Kurt Loader reporting from
Speaker 4: the nineties. Then Marge goes to rescue him, and he
Speaker 4: walked in and as a needle in his arm, and.
Speaker 5: I was like, oh, sure, that's confronted him.
Speaker 4: Yeah, But it turns out that I knew it.
Speaker 5: He didn't need it. I thought that was a nice
Speaker 5: little fat switch. Too many forrappuccino.
Speaker 4: Yes, he really did any injections. So he's now in hospital.
Speaker 4: She asked him to take her back and be on
Speaker 4: the horizon. We've got reality shows, Britney spears, a lot
Speaker 4: of home runs all of a sudden in the baseball
Speaker 4: and the President.
Speaker 5: But I'm wondering if that's around the time of the
Speaker 5: doping scan. Of course it is.
Speaker 4: Yeah, steroids in baseball, yep, and the talk about the
Speaker 4: president who would never lie, never, never, never. So now
Speaker 4: they're at the minigolf course, now, Philith, this was Matt
Speaker 4: Salmon's way of trying to bring it back to the
Speaker 4: history that we remember of when they first did it
Speaker 4: in the put golf Mini Put. So they go to
Speaker 4: minigov Course, in the castle, I think it was the
Speaker 4: castle is at the windmill? I think it's a windmill,
Speaker 4: win mill or the castle? Either way, Where did I miss?
Speaker 5: How did it end? Did you ever get back together? Yep?
Speaker 6: That professor couldn't keep me in march apart. I mean
Speaker 6: unless he had been a little nicer at the beach.
Speaker 2: That professor did teach me one good lesson, Homie is
Speaker 2: where my heart is.
Speaker 6: And once we were back together, I was too happy
Speaker 6: ever to grunge again.
Speaker 5: I thought was a sweet ending.
Speaker 4: The professor from the UNI's outside Condham townies again, But
Speaker 4: I thought all in all, why would you hate this episode?
Speaker 4: I understand the gripe with the continuity, but I think
Speaker 4: they establish at the start that this is just a
Speaker 4: bit of fun.
Speaker 5: This is damning it with ray and praise. It's too
Speaker 5: inoffensive to hate. Yeah, there's nothing wrong with it. There
Speaker 5: were ways to improve it.
Speaker 4: Certainly as a nineties kid, I enjoyed it.
Speaker 5: I thought it was just fine. Yeah, I'd give it
Speaker 5: a tweet out of five.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's nothing wrong with I enjoyed this more than
Speaker 4: most episodes I had in season nineteen so far. So anyway,
Speaker 4: I wonder if the outrage came from Epler Boswegian as
Speaker 4: much as what this one, because this one was just
Speaker 4: like absolutely just like how dare you like? Principle on
Speaker 4: the pulpit levels and I'm thinking they were just.
Speaker 5: How dear you would gret A Turnberg? Yeah, I just couldn't.
Speaker 5: I could understand, but I don't get that now. Plupos
Speaker 5: Wigan are far more of a debarkle than this. This
Speaker 5: was a perfectly pleasant, i won't say non event but
Speaker 5: a trifle. That's some with Mark koklek Roder. You're not
Speaker 5: bad at your joke. You do Simpsons good. What do
Speaker 5: we learn Bomber, What did.
Speaker 4: You learn from this episode, mister Davis.
Speaker 5: That the woke culture of the twenty twenties is really
Speaker 5: just the new coke to the original the snags since
Speaker 5: new age guys, it's really just a rebrand of full
Speaker 5: throttle nineties political correctness.
Speaker 4: I miss when ad breaks run into and a half minutes.
Speaker 5: Have you been you mentioned the Olympics earlier? Have you
Speaker 5: been watching the twenty twent ten dollars? That's right? Yeah,
Speaker 5: so you don't have to put up with any of
Speaker 5: it ads, okay, peasants and non Channel nine and we're
Speaker 5: seeing it like same ads all the time. And also
Speaker 5: it's like, I think the problem with commercial TV is
Speaker 5: actually the commercials. They've got these ads for Telstra, I'm
Speaker 5: naming names folks, and then the weird sort of stop
Speaker 5: motion animation. I get the feeling. Let someone at the
Speaker 5: added and she's watched a lot of Wes Anderson's like,
Speaker 5: we're going to be sort of weird and quirky and
Speaker 5: a little bit of bleak, and you're not quite sure
Speaker 5: what we're advertising and how we're going about it. I
Speaker 5: was watching Going fuck Off. I own shares in Telstra.
Speaker 5: I might sell them because of these ads and shares
Speaker 5: the only shares I own, I get a dividend of
Speaker 5: something like fifty dollars a quarter. So yeah, but I said,
Speaker 5: I'm gold nigger anyway, But yes, I do want shares
Speaker 5: in Telstra, but after these ads, I'm thinking maybe not. Yes. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Watching the ten play app, which is Channel ten here
Speaker 4: in Australia, we watch have you been paying attention?
Speaker 5: On there?
Speaker 4: Because I'm not watching its standard definition of Fox help,
Speaker 4: and we don't have an area on our TV, so
Speaker 4: we have to be only stream and so.
Speaker 5: You're spitting like you're making some grand gesture. It's like
Speaker 5: I couldn't do it anyway.
Speaker 4: So we watched it through the app and the ads
Speaker 4: just every ad break is the same, like four or
Speaker 4: five ads.
Speaker 5: Yes, often they'll play the same ad back to bad.
Speaker 4: Yes, And I'm like, we just saw this ad, why
Speaker 4: is this on again? I like sexy Land, but still.
Speaker 5: I was already attending. I was already a patriot of sex.
Speaker 5: You don't need to do the hard sount It did.
Speaker 4: Become like a little inject for us, though, because the
Speaker 4: sexy Lent ad had sort of like a big, sort
Speaker 4: of scale of society it was like a you know,
Speaker 4: a drag, a drag queen. There was just a young white,
Speaker 4: straight couple. There was an older woman and Nicko and I.
Speaker 4: The inject for us was always just like you reckon,
Speaker 4: she's buying, she's getting up tonight, she's old ladies, just
Speaker 4: like holding a box, Like what's in that box?
Speaker 5: Anyway? Right in? Let us know what's in to quote
Speaker 5: Brad pettin seven, what's in the ads?
Speaker 4: If you could support us on Patreon, that would be
Speaker 4: much appreciated, that too.
