Flaming Moe's

Hey, your love tester's busted. Go on and nickelback.

Hey buddy, have one on a half.

Hey, hey, this drink is delicious and my flood feels looser.

What do you call it? Well, it's called a flaming mo.

It's called a flaming moh. That's right, the flaming mo. My name is Mo, and I invented it. That's why it's called a flaming mole. What what are you looking at, Homer R.

It's a flaming mo.

I'm mo.

Four finger discount, dude.

Everybody, welcome to four Finger Discount. And we are all incredibly excited because this week we've gone all the way back to season three. We thoughts the end of the year, at the beginning of the year, depending on when you listen to this episode, we thought we'll not do a celebration. Let's not do a season twenty review. Let's save those for twenty twenty five, an exciting year that's going to be.

Yes, uh, it's season twenty is twenty twenty five's problem? As Dan I said, we're going to either wrap up the year or begin the year, because he was doing a lot of calculus before we actually push the big record button. Some of you hearing this in twenty twenty four, someone twenty twenty five. But whatever year and whatever time, whatever space, whatever frame of mind you're in, flaming Mos it just makes everything better. I don't happiness, It's just

Well, I just thought, what's a New Year's e? Theened episode of the Simpsons, and this is not New Year's E theme, but I thought, what are people doing during the holiday season getting boozy? So let's do a bousy episode. So flaming Mos. And I was surprised we hadn't already gone back and revisited this one. To be completely honest.

That Ken Brockman has appeared on that Yeah, he has said the word guy. At some stage. You can do your editing magic.

Or what I can do is I can get a word that begins with and then just add it to that. I you guy, You're just you're making it too complicated. But we're here just like a flaming moment, which seems like a very complicated dream. It does, indeed. Yeah, but we're here to review flamingos, as we said. And yeah, I'm so excited because I I always do this. I forget how good these episodes are because I don't revisit the older ones anywhere near as often as I should.

Well even yeah, even in this episode, I mean there's a bit of sort of I won't say adult content.

But not a kids This isn't a kid's episode behind you mean, oh, absolutely not. I mean I have no idea what's going on, even early on.

With Bart walking past the TV when it's on Springfield, which is you know, pretty racy, one might say rybald infotainment.

I mean to hear a young young boys whoa DNA? I mean ten, So he's entering that phase of his life. But he still finds that he says, all teena and then he says other girls are trying to kiss me. I guess because they're the girls from school there. Yeah, yes, exactly that you don't have that screen remove of Well, no, they're women on TV. That's wholly different. Yeah. So what do you think of Flamy Mo's overall though, because can very easily taken if you watch this episode, be seen

I mean, yeah, look at I think it is very easy to view Moe was the villain in this episode. Certainly you're saying about the escape patch, where you're saying, oh, his business is not doing all that great.

I don't know if it necessarily justifies at all that much. I mean, he really jumps in thevery very quickly say no, no, it's blamy mo. It's made by mole because I'm me, I mow and I made it. It's that was a pretty good mole on my part actually, I mean even by my standard savvy businessman, savvy business man. Yeah, and there's no room for friends in business. How many?

How many times have we heard since Jerry McGuire came out in ninety six, it's not show friends, it's show business exactly.

So yeah, what do you think overall that of just the story of this new invention comes around, everyone's just like that, it's the flavor of the month.

Well, you're speaking to the right man here, because you know how many times have just like limited various Yeah, I.

Mean, I mean there was no limit. There was no limited with this, but it was. But it's the hot new thing. Well, it's like when I drive down We've mentioned before, you said they've got a great selection of foods or coffees or whatever. But the place near the Coals and Shannon Avenue here, the little cafe, the ever we drive past it, the line is out the door, and I'm thinking, is it that good or just the idea of I want to be part of the crew.

Enjoyed this episode so much that I actually didn't write down that many trivia questions. I was like, really, okay, yeah, it's like I'm just enjoying going with the flow of flaming those. Having said that, there's a new cafe just across the street from Funk naricoles.

It used to wait out the recipe. It used to it used to be got hunk. I went there because I was driving pass was like, you know what.

After we recorded, Yes, I was like, I'm gonna go get a kebab from Sam's in town driving Sam and it's like.

Under new management and it looks like it's I'll go and try it. It was okay.

I think I've read something the other days like it'd be more disappointing than when you stray from your old takeaway.

There are many things watch the point. I actually said this to Nicola the other day. I said, I pulled myself up quite often on the podcast now saying there's nothing worth actually know what. There are many things worse, but it's still very annoying. And you're right though, when the price of my favorite place to get supeaki from it's just gone through the roof to the point where I'm going, I don't want to spend fifty bucks on

I like the idea of, oh, it's the new joint in town, because we've all been susceptible to that. Yeah, the new nightclub, the new nightclub, the new pub, the new restaurant, whatever.

This could be the place, this could be this could be it.

Yeah, this could define my identity. This could be my regular, This could be my cheers, this could be my mos, this could be my place.

And after about eighteen months two years ago, why are we still coming here? It's not that great? Is there? Is there a new place? It was a new place opening up in a few months. Let's try that place. Well, let's try that place. Absolutely.

I mean not to name names or malign establishments, but you know, I was talking about steakhouses in Geelong with the you know friends and loved Ones the other night. And there's a place that used to be the steak Joint in Geelong.

Now it's the most expensive, and people are going a stage joint that I do not particularly want to free. Yeah, it feel like they're living off the rep a little bit.

Absolutely, and more people, more and more people are saying there's more and more people are like, oh, yeah, you know what, it's not that great, So times change state joint.

He's trying to put down the competition early. He's opening up a new state joint. That's I'm planting c.

Yeah, but everybody jumps on the bandwagon. I mean, yeah, we saw the cues went around the block for flaming mos.

Most just regular old modes. Good for Mo, even he done a bad thing, I still felt nice that Most finely getting something because he's always been there when Homer needed him. Right, that's true, and I get that he's still on Homer's idea, But Homer has relied on Mo for many Granted, Moment profited from Homer's alcoholism, but he was an ear for Homer to vent his frustrations on and when Homa just wanted to get stuff out. Has always been the one I think, you know, I think

That's your unofficial that's your unofficial shrink right there. I mean, your partender has to be many, many things, probably cheaper. Oh yeah, yeah, you've got to be a priest. You've got to be a shrink. You've got to be manner of confidants.

Yeah, so I thought, you know, most somewhat deserved this for.

A while, may deserve success, but you know, do you deserve success if it is ill gotten? The thing is, though he obtained by fraudulent or even or semi shady.

But he did still the idea. And as you said before, it was a very spur of the moment. It's it's like he made the decision then and there. He didn't think this, This wasn't a well plotted out, I'm going to steal the idea that this was. I'm going to take advantage of the situation. And as he thought about it throughout the episode, it's like he still wanted Homer as a friend, but he couldn't turn down the money.

Yeah, it wasn't the afterglow of spending a little time with Collette.

A happy hour. I was like happy hour, What a man. But let's talk about Collette. So there's a lot of discussing with Collette. So she was written to be the Diane because this is a lot of Cheers parodies.

Threat well, a very very deliberate and yeah direct Cheers parody with the opening credits.

Yeah again, another one of those things that when you're a kid, you don't really realize what's going. It's just a really catchy song. But it's one of my favorite parodies of the Simpsons of it don one of my favorite songs of the Simpsons ever did this one and the words are written by Jeff Martin, just a parody of the Cheers theme song. But Collette, right, So she was written to be Diane, who left the show maybe like season four or five.

About five seasons in yeah, show long leaves Cheers to see a movie career. She'd been in a few movies prior to prior to be starring in Cheers. But Cheers, of course, is the one that really sort of kickstarts it for her.

Yes, okay, And so there was a lot more to the story here between mo and Diane, who was going to play the Sam role. She was going to play the Diane role Collette and I say, Moan Diam Collete sorry, And they left it out because they said it just it just didn't quite work. I do feel like there is an element of when you watch this going it feels like this is meant to be something, but like it doesn't quite It's like they couldn't just completely remove it. They had to include it in some way for the

When she first showed up, she's, yeah, she's what's the word auditioning for the job, she's applying for the job. Yeah, but also being very sort of smart man. Whether that's very Diane Chambers. But I mean, if we're talking about favorite moments that.

Whole what's the club mo bartender's do it to your puke or something like that's questions what did I say? It's like coartenders do it to your bath? Do it to your bath? Yes? No, no, above that storeboard drollery. And then I felt very sickcomy banter that bit, didn't it. Yeah, but also the high end kind of sitcom banter. Yeah, but Cheers specialized in. I mean, yeah, when he's talking about a better about I prefer tight beak. It's in

Oh okay, I didn't see her name at all because it was actually all the character was actually voiced in the end by a star or a cosman.

Was a Joeanne Martin. Now it's Joan Harris. It's Joan Harris. Excuse meself, Yeah, who's the voice of the A lot of Bart's friends like Wendell, Lewis Richard or the kids at school that aren't main characters, but you know them. If you see Bart's friends at school that we never see all that often, she's she's a voice of Martin's mother. She's so she's I'm going to give Joe and Harris a lower, low key MVP. Charlotau. I mean, I really liked her in this episode. I really like the voice work she did.

Just and if you if she's voicing those characters, as you say, it's like, I like your work.

I appreciate that they were willing to get someone in like Katain O'Hara right realized it wasn't working. Still have the balls to say, sorry, Catherine, We'll still credit ya because you put in the effort, you record all the lines, but it's just not working. That's true.

I mean, Katherine O'Hara has always been great. She was a cast member of their CTV The Canadian equivalent of SNL. By this stage, she's already in Beatle Juice and Home Alone.

She's coming off Home Alone with this episode. Well known, not exactly a huge star, but everyone knows the mother from Home Alone. That's why many of the nice most people now know her as Shit's Creak. She's Creek. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but she's still Hey, it's Kevin's mum and Shit's Creek. Who's I mean, she's crazy, really popular, but everyone's really watching Home Alone. No one's I say, no one. That's it.

I mean it had its sort of I guess second wind or second life life with a lot of memes and things like that.

You still see that to some degree. You see a lot of it. Was David right the sun, Dan Levy who's the son character was David anyway, but you've got your four main he was the most meaned one, yes, and get the feeling I could be wrong here, but this is a suspicion that I have that suspicions shifts Creek was sort of because a lot of shows are made.

Like this now for the kids, in that we've got to have some memorable moments.

And the actors really realize that talk shows now aren't talk shows. They're just they're moments.

Oh yeah, absolutely, but certainly, you know, scripted drums and scripted comedies are going to have moments where they have a moment where you're sort of looking at the camera or you're pulling a certain face or going uh huh, because that can be like anytime someone says something on Twitter or Blue Sky, Blue Sky, it's not really happening.

You finally realize this.

Many people are saying that, yeah, anytime we want someone to agree with something, rather than say I agree, get them to pull the face. Yeah, face could be anything, you know what I mean. But yeah, Katherine Haa, I mean yeah it is. As you said, it's pretty it's pretty ballsy, and it shows a commitment to the.

Quality of the show. There's no way they would do this now.

It feels bad to say, oh, our commitment quality is so much that we will cut Katherine O'Hara. That's not what I mean. It's more like she's great, but it's not quite right. It's not what we need.

This even by the team here, how many times have we reviewed, never said and gone that guess role just didn't work or just didn't it didn't. It just it just feels like, now, well there's no quality control. But it's just we've got a guest start. Doesn't matter if it works, We've got the guest star. I guess.

So yeah, I mean by season three, I mean the show has already sort of gathered my manitument. It's becoming a very very popular bit of a pop culture phenomenon. But yeah, I don't is it at the stage where it's starting to like we can pick and choose or we've got people lining up to be on the show.

And I say this because I watched that New Christmas special. Oh come on all ye faith right, do you want to give them a peek behind the curtain and say, well no, no, So I sent your message when I was like five minutes in. I said, it's got I said to Papsture should review it, right and then I watched the first five minutes and it's his god awful right. I get this guy in called Darren Brown, who I had never heard of, and I guarantee probably eighty percent

It was always It was always sort of a rookie move for reviewers or journalists or whatever. When you're first starting out, it's like everything's either five star or one star. Everything's either the best or the worst, because that's how you make an impression, you know. The further I got along in my reviewing career was realizing, yeah, most stuff's three and a half. Most stuff is three and a half and five. Most stuff is room temperature and that's fine. Yeah,

Like another time, I'm forgot of a master class on screen? What do you do? That kind of sacks or worst episode it? Yeah, so if we reviewed it, I wouldn't say it's terrible. I wouldn't say it's a masterclass. I would just review it for what it is. It's twenty twenty four Simpsons. It's fine, that's all. It's fine. It's fine. It's not going to blow you're going to blow your load over it. You're not going to be furious at

Yes, yeah, but yeah, why should I do that?

My lad found that very very funny.

I don't know how the guys at The Simpsons felt about Aerosmith. I mean I thought it was they.

Probably they were the first band to appear on the show.

They probably, but the way they animate Stephen Tyler.

When he says you've rack.

Like a ghoul and also listening to of course, I'm aware of Aerosmith, but I think my first real exposure to Aerosmith, as even as a young man, was the mashup of I walked this way with you know, with Aerosmith and run DMC.

That game that resurgence.

Yeah, oh, it's an original song by Aerosmith. You can listen to it's like and then you listen to Young Last at the end, it's like, Wow. Aerosmith had a lot of songs about getting it on the young chicks. I mean, admittedly they're making move they're making music for teenage boys, play the hits.

But the same time, I know you should still be doing this. There's a there's a stage of your life, Steven Tyler. So that song Young Last at the end, they re recorded a condensed shorter version purely for the credits. Good for them. And so you'll notice there's a guy sitting in between them at the table at the booth of Moe's who has glasses on I think long hair.

Yeah, I think I was probably still in high school when it when it came out, Walk this Way?

When did it come out? So? Aerosmith's version was ninety seventy five. The re release was in okay, says in nineteen eighty six. So yes, they originally released it in seventy five Aerosmith, and they re recorded it with run DMC for Walk This Way in eighty six, so five years after. So people are still talking about it. People still listening to it. Oh yeah, oh looking out of any sort of you play it now. People still love that song. Absolute kids love. It's just a great song.

You got a weddings or sort of nightclubs for the over twenty eights and yeah, Walk This Way comes on.

Backing up, you dispute is I say that joke every day right in this house. So you know when they say Simpsons quotes, this is a Simpsons quote. But we when we are lighting the stove, the electric stove every time, okay this and Nicholas like, you're ever gonna stop doing it? I'm like, you'll miss it if I do every Yeah, if they stop, He's like, ah, you know, Nicholas things every time I go, I will miss it. If she doesn't, if she wasn't here, I would miss hearing her say it.

He's probably caught so much flat for his name. But he has just become very very zen with it, accepted it, accepted it and rolls with it.

Because if you get angry at it, I just keep doing it. They will. Indeed, so you jass just using jiu jitsu on the phone prank. It's just nice seeing bucket foiled. He's like, look they're left with you, Like, hey, look we've all been there. It's all good. Yeah, what a guy. I loved missus Kay in this Oh yeah, I mean, obviously she's asking how to have an affair, but hope I mean, and I mean that in a

Few bits from from this episode that I've just entered into memology or certainly guys personal favorites. I mean, how many times have I said that's all right? I was thinking about simpledanic.

I thought of you second us all that, but also, yeah, Homer getting all upset and then being super sarcastic and being the magical man from happy Land who lives in a Gundrob house on while it was in this episode. Yeah, it's such an iconic moment, isn't it. It's really good. I've always enjoyed that. By the way, I've been sarcastic. Well, dird love that. I really liked the dig at Shelley long here. So she has since left cheers, right, that's what they've heard in here. But the line of just

Anyone that they made where they were like star vehicles, Yeah, not many of them were.

Missi Caudro had a sitcom for a while which didn't last long. No, No, I mean a lot of it. A lot of the tried sitcoms where it was like beast on their real life. Because Joey had the sitcom Joe, but then he had the show what was a Call where he was playing Matt LeBlanc, but it was called Episodes. Actually I liked it. Episodes was actually pretty funny. Yeah, I just think I just think the world wasn't quite

Yeah, and it was a combination as well of British and American humor as well, because I mean, I think the guys who created it were Brits and they came over. It was like, oh we got the opportunity to work in Hollywood and what a clash of cultures.

No no, no, no. D The Comeback was the least could two seasons, two thousand and five, so that was a long time. I thought it was recent. Yeah.

I think it was one that was very beloved by a small but vocal cohorter people who were like, bring back the comeback, bring back the comeback.

She had one called web Therapy. That's the recent one, twenty fifty. Yeah, she's one that way for four seasons. Yeah, she's on something on Netflix at the moment. I think it's called No Good Deed. I think she co stars Weirk. I want to say Ray Romano, all right, apparently not bad, but.

You're right, Yeah, there are very few sort of sitcom stars who have yet really taken that and run with it. Really the one that sort of stands out as Michael J.

Fox. Yeah, but even still his movie career was kind of short lived, kind of Yeah, but then he was back on Spin City again. That's true. Now, how much of that had to do with his Parkinson's die, I don't know sure, because he had Parkinson's during Spin City, didn't he Yeah.

At the same time, he could also sense that his movie career, Yeah, it was kind of it was making a lot of real again three three and a half star comedy.

He always he couldn't be like I dont think people were ready for like thirty to forty year old Michael J. Fox. They wanted the young, they needed him young and boyish, and with all due respect to Michael Fox, he just didn't quite have the range to cut it as a dramatic actor. And Spin City, yeah, oh yeah. Look, look I've got a lot of time. I love Spin City, I love it. Look, I've got a lot of time for Mark Jay Fox.

I think he's His comic time is almost second to none, Fantastic on family times, irreplaceable, in the Back of the Future movie that you can never you put him in something like because he was making an effort to branch out and be a bit more serious, and he was in it was in a movie called Casualties of War?

Was it?

Sean Penn was a very It's a very grim, very downbeat Vietnam War movie. And this is the story I remember from the most, is Sean Pens being a real mind fucker, and because his character has to get under Michael J. Fox's skin and be an antagonist, and he was basically just calling Michael Jay Fox a TV act of the whole time and just like you can't cut it, you don't, you don't have it, and doing it to

Who've gone on to be like huge on screen not voice acting on screen movie stars. Yeah, Jennifer Aston would have to be the most popular.

Probably, but even then, I mean, is there any movie that's like it's a Jennifer Andiston starring vehicle? Means it's normally like in.

The early two thousands she had a shadow, Yes, but I mean stuff like picture Perfect and all that.

It's not really she has her TV shirt on Amazon now. Oh yeah, Morning, yeh Morning wasn't done well, but I mean he's back on streaming. I mean, Moonlighting wasn't really a sitcom, so you can't say that Bruce Willis's transfer was that. Likewise, Travolter I mean yeah, really he was kind of a breakout of Welcome Back Cotter.

But I mean, Gabe Kaplan is the star. Oh yeah, but Vine Barbara was designed as a stuff, but he quickly became the star of people tuned in for Vinnie. That's true. Interesting. Kaplan was the straight man for Vinnie. Oh, he was a straight man for for the sweat Hogs can bring that show back, you can't bring how many dogs are still with us?

But yeah, but I mean, I mean Kevin James was there for a while. Helen Hunt, Helen Hunter, I guess, but I think Helen Hunt was pretty.

Well regarded before DAVIDO. Oh, that's good point. Yeah, there are all these theos and taxi right he was. Yeah, but again that's Ryan Reynolds of course. Yeah, but even then, but even then, because I'm reading, I'm reading a bit about Ryan real because Bateman. Mmmm oh that's a tough one. Chris Pratt mm hmm yeah, merely Kuness, Ashton Kutcher. I don't know.

Now, we're just now we're just saying names. Now, we're just saying names. Were the sake of saying names? Tell us what you think?

Yeah, if you're still listening to this after we'd just I feel that I said to pretty much nail it right though, Ryan RealD he started on a two guys got a piece of place. Now he's one of the biggest movie stars in the world, that's true.

But was there a sort of an It felt like there was a bit of a thing in the wild for a while before you know, you've got the end of Two Girls in the Pizza Place.

Ed waiting and he played Deadpool, But like in Wolvering, didn't he Yeah.

Yeah, you've got the Yeah, there's a fair bit of space. And in Blade Trinity, No, no, he was a different It was a different character in Blade trin okay, but he played Wage Wilson slash Deadpool in X Men Origins Wolverine. Terrible movie is it? Yeah, it's no good. The one was they released footage and it was wasn't finished or something.

I think they basically released the movie like it got pired and it got released really early but hadn't finished at the CGI. That could be it. Yeah, it was just bad from the from the jump anyway. Anyway, let's get Ino flaming motion. We've gotten way off track and the other favorite moment school I really liked.

So.

Another moment that I really enjoyed was but bringing he's in myers, Homer, right, he brings to the alcohol to school. Are they liquor bottles enough for everybody? You can take one and whatever? It's not finished by the end of the day. I was left, you have it the end of the day. Yes, I've got to get.

Props to Homer for remembering, you know, the sort of exact measurements and all that, because I mean, he basically made it out of scraps. He's He's like Tony Skark, Tony Stark.

The thing about this episode is that for the sake convenience for the story, they don't have Homer ruined the day. Hope could have easily just made his own flamming mote at his house. Oh yeah, it's not like it could only be made At most he could have started making his own one and going here, this is it the original? Yeah, Or you could have had Homer go this is a different way for the story of Hammer go I know what the secret ingredient is. If you don't want me

It's astonished to me that you'll sort of look back and I don't. We're the Three Sonic movies. There's so many trolls movies.

Something are fucking great. That's why have you watched them?

Oh?

Yeah, I'm sure they are. It's just on my back. They're genuinely great movies and sonic films. Yeah, I've not. I've seen to Nicola last night that I don't think I've been this excited for a movie in a long time. Sounding three, I'm really excited for it.

Well, that's something we can talk about when we open our mail bag a little bit later.

Yes, indeed, but by the time we've just Timeta timestawn, This Sonny three has been out for a while now. See you're the one who times down this time. But you did. You bodies up the Three Sonic Movies now well that yeah, but that's over the course of many time, much time. Next question, who invented the the gas CHROMA J P. Martin A J. P.

Martin, Although in the Disney Plus they also say Morton Morton. Do someone miss hurt, but it's Martin do because Martin is talking about today, one does to think, because it's not hinted at here that I know for his names, I'm thinking Martin Prince. No, no, he's not related to Martin. Martin's first name is Martin. Next question for you will be what is Half Banister's role at the Tipsy Place?

Oh, it's called Tipsy Staggers. Yeah, stag is really like good time drinking and eating imporium. Wasn't the head of acquisitions? No? Two words, and it's like the second word is like the top dog. What do you say junior VP? GIA vice president? But he's just vice president? What do you say JR? What who is using the cigarette machine? Ad? Most?

Yeah, I'm wondering if this is a if nineteen ninety one is the kind of year that that term entered the into the vernacular. It's like, Wow, it's the best of both worlds. I'm feeling entertained but also informed.

Yeah, so good. Kent Bruck was just having a great time. So he has got the tire Fire celebrate its twenty fifth anniversary. We've got the oldest man in Springfield and the fattest man finally meet not that fat, No, not really, and Drederic Tatum reminisces about the tops from Springfield. Now they don't play that up in the Home a Boxing episode that Tatum is on Springfield. Oh no, apparently it's

Whoa tna?

Why are you still up?

Lisa?

Slumber party?

Who can sleep with those five people hands cackling and plotting against me?

Boy? It did get better things to talk about than you.

What an ego? But we pan up and we've got asbestos in the in between the floorboards and whatnot, and some lead and they're playing the candle wax game and that drops in. The first thing is what's going to be It's gonna be a Janet? No, it's an olympic to not on Lisa for being so positive about it. Yeah, but then we get the under dust pan. The wax never lies. Then they decide to play truth or dare They dare the girl to go kiss Bart and they corner him, give a big smooch. I'm telling mom and dad,

I think marg was in the bed and I think so he's staying up and get a little on Springfield.

Yeah, maybe, but Moe is a business is slow at the moment, so home he goes to visit him. You know, everyone's healthier, they're drinking less. And it was for the junior high school next door. This is the next door. I think this is over the road or whatever. It wouldn't be then it was used a cigarette machine. What are the reasons that these businesses down? Well, he bought the love tester, yes, but increased job satisfaction, that family togetherness.

Okay, we're not. We're no longer your house of bipurbole. Full finger discount.

We've got that's bad. That's bad. That's good. But that's bad. He says, we need to do something different. So it gets at the cocktail chart, Gin and Tonic do they mix? And Homer remembers a flaming Homer. The drink recipe is telling all about it. Patty and someone were going through their slides, and they've got their hairy legs because they know that the shaver very yellow drumstick. It's a great line. So he goes to get a beer, but I think it's Paddy has the last one, so he makes his own beer.

He started to mix the little bits that were left in every liquor bottle. In my haste, they had grabbed a bottle of the kids Court syrup. It passed the first test. They didn't go blind.

Paddy's cigarette but falls into it, sets it on fire, and all of a sudden, I know what it is, but fire made it good. Didn't understand the signs, but I made it good. Yeah, checks he's lost and found for some cough syrup. He finds something in there. Mostly thought that his charm. Love it, light it on fire. It's unbelievable. Yeah, it looks like a party in his mouth and everyone's inn. They used that line a lot in the earlier Simpsons. I think they use it again

Place, absolutely not. Look, no time in living memory have I attended to play with a salad bar.

I remember it was a sizzler, Yeah, sizzler or you can eat salad bar. Because no one ever reads it, no one, no one. It's not false advertised, but everyone just likes saying all you can eat. The idea of it's all you can eat eat, it's when you go to America. One of the things I found was you go there, you buy a drink, but everywhere was free top ups. That's right. Yeah. I was like, I don't need three letters of PEPSI, but I'm gonna take it.

I couldn't help noticing your sign, the one that says by, can just do it till your boy.

No above that store bought drowlery.

Oh great, why don't we bell out an application? I need your name, measurements and turn ons.

You really expect me to tell you my measurements?

You could, but I find this way is much more accurate and fun. What do you offer in the way of salary, minimum waging tips? Of course there are a fringe benefits, such as an unforgettable weekend at club mode.

I'd prefer to take my vacation someplace hot.

I like your MAXI kid, you're hired. You shan't regret this, methinks, I shan't.

Real sex past. But that's not like real cheese dialogue, didn't it? Oh yeah, yeah, I mean that's something you could actually imagine, say Malone, Yeah, definitely. What are you offer? Minimum wage and tips? Stringe benefits, some very love It's then when you were doing it that way, these benefits and so from tipsy mixed staggers, good time drinking and eating emporium. I would go to this place, as would I. I wonder if I want a place that has a

It's kind of got. It's the hipster's version of what an old timey pub was.

I sort have made it hipsterish, have that it's not hipster ish, but it's kind of like you take a look at it's like, oh, this looks like the same old pub, but it's like, oh the table is just a little bit neater, or oh this one's been handmade or something, and then it's like, oh your chips are hand cut and all that kind of shit. It's just just just to interrupt. So this is what the Petrol used to be. Like, this is just as Niccola had. So it must have been twenty nineteen, just before COVID,

Uh lu and I and Felix went there for dinner a little while ago, and let's yeah, well let's just get the basic pub grab. We'll get a steak, we get some crum kalamari, or get a parmi.

It's like, this is all good. I mean, this is not again I'm using the term a lot today, but this is bear three and a half, the four star meal and five four star. But yeah, really it was a good party. What was the price? What would you make the prices? Oh, it wasn't super expensive, but yeah, because you go to if it's between twenty and twenty five for a parmy, you're doing well. I think it might have been a little bit more than that, might have been just under thirty three and a half.

But yeah, I mean, yeah, just a good candory at a good hotel. That is, you don't necessarily feel like you've got to put on your Sunday best to go there, but you will put on an shirt.

I don't want that. I want to play riders, go and have a fu some sliders.

Yeah.

I mean, if you're talking about like the my what's the word, I'm looking for, ideal place, ideal experience, That's what I asked you. Well, that's what I'm saying. Yeah.

Look, there are certain occasions when I'm going to be dressed like I'm dressed right now. It's just like, okay, well I'll go to Sam's and get a get a kebab. I didn't do yesterday, but I might do today. But that's what I'm thinking. Yeah, but you've made your position quite yeah, yes, yes, and I like the idea of your establishment as well. Yeah, pool table, jukebox TV's on.

In the corner, srt C, I t what are the old TVs called? What are the old box ones? It's going to be a forty centimeter TV, the little square one black and white, handful of things on the menu. But they get it just right. I mean, yeah, I've always said if I was going to open a cafe, have like you mums out the back making the sandwiches. You have four.

Sandwiches on the menu and coffees, and that would pretty much be it.

Really Yeah. Yeah, on maybe like a little thing with like you get bottled water or coke. You have something for kids. Yeah, oh you can make a bubba chan or hot chocolate. We went to a cafe recently and it was like it's called like a restaurant almost. It was quite big and they didn't have nuggets for kids, and I went, I was sure he's running this place.

But yeah, they'd clearly don't want places but they don't want to child and patrons. Yeah, some places, I like a lot of people have kids. Well these guys, these guys have clearly either done their research or just taken a punt and saying, oh it was empty. Some places want to go somewhere where other people aren't going to bring their kids.

Yeah, anyway, it's a bold stretch.

Pardon me, Are you the genius behind the Flaming Mob?

Why?

Yes, I'm your man.

My name's Hag Banner Star. I worked for Tipsy Mxstiger's a good time drinking and eating and phim.

Oh yeah, Hey, what's mister mcstagger really life?

Actually, there is no Tipsy mixstagger. He's just a composite of other successful logos.

Well you tell him from me that he makes one great not so realistic.

Yes, fine, I will.

Anyway, I've gone a proposition for you.

Keep talking.

We feel your flaming mo is perfect for our restaurant train. We want to buy the ruscip no dice.

The flaming mo is not for sale. Do you know how much of my blood and sweater in this drink? Figerous peach?

Sorry?

Have I'll be back so have there has poured the drink into the case. This must this must be what the colonel went through back in the day. Oh goodness. Yet people are trying to get that recipe.

Give me one hundred bits of chicken, picking the skin of every bit and just die secting.

Like it astounds me that it's not out. Is that a hint of human Yeah, everybody is trying to we have laboratories. Well, how many times, I mean, how many times have you looked online for like KFC hit what is the KFC recipe? It tastes fine, but it's not quite KFC it's not quite. I reckon it might be what they cook it in as well, because there's obviously a particular brand of whatever they cooking it in the oil. I reckon the secret recipe is not in the chicken,

No?

No?

But I mean it feels like it just feels like fun in the writer's rooms, Like what are we gonna call this guy?

Half Halvey is a very busy this man name of course Harvey Birdman, Harvey, who's avident? What's a Harvey or even Harvey warbanger Yes later alluded to in this episode Let's not Talk to the old movie Mogle, Barney says that man only an idiot give away a million dollar idea like this? Why would you ever do it?

Home?

It's like, oh my god, I did that Martin then showing the gas chromat What is it? Chromatograph? Chromatograph? What is that? What do they do? I don't know, man, I was gonna look it up. No, forgot because I was taking my notes. Have a look gas, but it makes an opinion. It is an analytical instrument that measures the content of various components in a sample. The analysis performed by a gas chromatograph. It's called gas chromatography. Well,

Well that's the thing, and we're used to, uh, well maybe we're just used to the underachieving kid, but in this case getting up and like, oh, you know, he's gonna half past his way through it or whatever, so I know he actually gives a proper presentation. Yeah, because as you said, it's pride and his father and his achievements.

But Nelson calls him out and says, no, I love that you were first to intou mo the bartender? Did his name the Bartender?

Yeah, I'm amazed that the Flaming Mo, Yeah, has has got such reach that even the kids are talking about it.

When did they reveal Sislack was his last name? That's a good question, when reveal Mo SiZ Lac? I think it was mister Burns, wasn't it? Because they had the eminent MS. So that's why he's called the Barton here. That's the joke, because he didn't have he didn't have a last name. Yeah, yeah, we go. I thought it was there because they had to have the M and s. Again, infotainment, it's entertaining, but you're also being in full way tuned into the shell guys. Missus Case says that bar has

In, Ladies and gentlemen, some new buddies of mine, stop by tonight. Maybe we can get him to come up here. How about a warm, flaming mods welcome for arrow smack, Come on, guys, free pickled eggs, a.

It's like, oh ship, that wasn't excellent. It's their voice of a guy. I'm like, that guy had one fucking job. One job is just like the best bend in the world, or he's just the intego. That's it. Actually, you forgive about you Ros. It's like, oh, well, you know, at least Sydney you're

Oh yeah, I remember going to some confortable while back and you know, one of those outdoor ones that's like various bands, and the guy would be get the like okay, guess what next, guy, You're coming up by house, and but he was trying to do a bit more banter on top of that, and I'm like, I'd rather just, you know, hear the stuff that they're playing over the PA, like.

The music that play in between the rather they'd get me up mid song. No, no, I know what you Yeah, I don't like that either. I just have to MC yeah gigs and like, hey, but he has together for this band. It's like no one always put their hands together for it. They were cheering whilst they were playing. They don't want to have to put their hands together again. It's like gus to host all the Battle of the Bands and things like that for k like at the

Telephone flaming mouth. Yes, I'm looking for a friend of mine. Last name Jazz, first name Hugh.

We get the flaming Mose intro here, flaming. It's such a good song. It is, Yeah, and the stills very much look like cheers. It's a director yeah, and it ends with Barney getting the norm intro and Woody's behind the bar. You never see him again. It's just for that moment. Yeah. I liked Coach, but I think wood he was a funnier yeah character, because Coach kind of had that I'm dumb, except there was an episode where Coach, I mean in season one where he's got his daughter

Yeah, yeah, when we did our cheers holy ship and how we I'd certainly rolled on from the from the party.

Oh yeah, it's like, daddy, I know I'm not the best looking. It's just like a father's love, you know. Oh yeah, you're just thinking about it.

She's not gonna look like look like moment and you Coach says, yeah, your your mother got beautiful, you know, she got out on me. Oh no, she got more beautiful every single day. Yeah, it's fantastic.

That awesome when the way to.

The world has got you down and you want and your life bills to pay, a dead end job and problems with the wife, but don't throw in the tower because there's a place right down the block where you can't drink your misery away.

That flame.

So when the good MUDs can more you.

Like a happiness, it's just a flaming mo away happiness is just a flaming mow away.

How's the world treating you, mister Gumble.

This is where Tipsy Mix staggers man again have rocks up and he goes They want to offer him a million dollars for the recipe. It's known as you idiots like, we're gonna get it eventually, We're gonna lap. You know, we're gonna eventually figure it out. Professor Frink's there. The secret ingredient is love lab also, and they're using a gas chromatrop Are they? Oh, well done? I never even

I think it was one of Damon Waynes's character's catchphrases because he actually made made a movie called mul Mooney, did he Yeah? Yeah, it came out like ninety ninety one or ninety two.

Okay, it's called moul Mooney written by Damon Damon Wayne's Yeah mo Money soundtrack ninety ninety two. Because there's only two Yes, it was half this episode, okay.

But I think the feeling that the the catchphrase was very popular on in Living Color. Yeah, but the More Money movie probably best known for having the best things laugh free on the soundtrack.

That's a banger of a song. I love that song. Oh, I love Luthor. I love songs where you just get two people who soun out they're genuinely in love with each other. Really like that stumble learning and the remains stumbling in and they've just taken the original site basically put beats on it. No, it sucks fucking hell. I want to hear that. Want to the snopters of More Money the film. A petty criminal? Of course he's a

Dann Ways is about to find out there getting moll Murney is heard.

Then it looks it sounds like I have said a fresh prince. The nineties were a wonderful time. Will gives up the word of being fresh for a carport job. He finally up in a difficult situation when he slips up. Will Smith is the Stale Prints, rated PG. Thirteen. Will give me a call. If you haven't understood what we're doing here, it is Rob Steiner is a carriage going down to Southwark. Chally reviewed it season six of south Park. We peak Peak, we did really well Peak south Fark

Okay, but you promise me more money?

I'm all, I'm all Mo mos don can we motor the movie?

There's a mot name.

Of course, I'll work and Mo Way.

Makes Mo ma.

Well. So it's time again for Mo to have Aerosmith play. But they can't find their drummer. Where is he? Where's Joey? He is getting bizet He doesn't really want to get busy. Missus K is getting bize, I would go and get it the drumstick from missus Ka. Of course, Mo is then he's going to sell the drink. He halves, like, you've made the right decision here, blah blah blah. I'm usually still and running out of business, but you know,

It was.

Yeah, they don't really they end with a gaggy but it's not like I thought they might have gone down there, think of most still charging him for it kind of thing, but they didn't. It's just they end with the sweet they're still friends. They've gone through this horrible ordeal. Most maybe made a bunch of money. Who knows they've come out the other side going to be here tonight. I doubt it. And that's the end of Flaming Mos. Yeah, there's a reason why this one's alreadys put in the

Here's a lot of good one lines, but also a lot of gags that are interconnected and callbacks and all that kind of stuff.

Really fun opening act as well with the slumber party. I just I think it's just it felt so real.

Yeah, and it's an inciting incident that doesn't sort of hang. It works by itself, but it also doesn't stretch it out too long.

How often do we find with said modern just like teen ere season twenty of The Simpsons, where we go all you have to do is at home? I get to this point. Why do you have to wait waste eight minutes of the episode to get to this? You know what I mean? So here it's over, has to get to Mos. We have, yeah, three minutes of Shenanians and is at most right it has no bearing on the story. No, but they work perfectly well by themselves.

I don't understand the science of podcasting, but patrons make it good.
