What the actual fuck is going on here. Oh, hey, look at you friends. Welcome to How Are You Now? The podcast where we talk about everything. Letter Kenny, related from Shorey Chirps, McMurray's Questionable Behavior. We're the toughest podcast in letter Kenny. And we're here to talk about everything that makes this show a cult classic. So grab a puppers, get ready for some Hicks skids, hockey players, and Glen Tiar. How are you now? Couldn't you? Are you sure about that?

No. So that's been going on with you, babe. I'm working again. Yay. It's weird and I'm exhausted every day. And. Last weekend I only had one day off, and this weekend has felt like that too, because, oh yeah, grad school. Fuck, what the hell was I thinking? Well, I hope you've learned your lesson. Ugh. Yeah. Oh man. So, uh, let's see. I, I've, I've gotten an, I got another couple of, uh, voice voiceover things, uh, which I've done, which has been cool. Um, and, um, What else?

And only one guy has tried to steal your voice for ai. Well, yeah. I don't know. Well, one that you know about. Well, I, but I put that in, uh, in my requirements they have to answer that. You will not be using my voice for AI or any of that smart kind of stuff. So, and they, their answer either has to be, I agree, I will not do that, or no, I will look for another voiceover actor. Smart. So I like that. Yeah. Um, but yeah, uh, again, um, we have a new phone number. Mm-hmm. Uh, (503) 487-2789.

Uh, and, um, fit Party. Yeah. 50 foot party, you know, to get your Fitz Bow. So, Uh, and we've got a, another, uh, running that, running the promo through the end of the end of the season. So, uh, let's play this real quick. Sunday's at 3:00 AM it's the fuss with Hank and Jess on letter. Kenny's zone 97.1 C G N U. Good. New radio. We're not so bad. You know, I was just thinking, yeah. Do we know? Is that.

Eastern standard or Pacific, like, I'm not gonna be up at 3:00 AM no matter what, but like now I need to figure out like, what is that gonna be, you know, I, they, I don't know. It's prob you should ask. It's probably Eastern, I don't know. Um, oh, letter Kenny. Yeah, yeah. Letter. That makes sense. Say letter Kenny. So yeah, sure. Um, but uh, back again with, uh, with an old friend. Ladies and gentlemen, those beyond the binary, it's time for the season finale of How are You now?

And we have a very special guest joining us today. He's a podcaster, lit letter Kenny enthusiast and all around. Great guy. This season has been full of ups and downs, so we couldn't think of anyone better to help break us all, break it all down than our very good friend. So sit back, grab a puppers, kick your feet up on the O Koya end table and get ready to share some insights. And last with our good buddy Al Grego. Al, how are you now? Good. You? Oh, not so bad.

Uh, it's good to have you back on my friend. Good to be back. Thank you for having us. Yeah. And, and I, and I think the reason Tiara was asking that question about what time zone they're in is I, I understand you're supposed to be going on the fus Yeah. Over CG N U apparently. Yeah. I'm not sure, um, exactly what they're, you know, I think I'm gonna be doing some music stuff with them, so I'm not Oh, very cool. Yeah. That's awesome. Um, so yeah, I'm looking forward to that.

And you know, the other thing I'm looking forward to is our upcoming, uh, table read. Yes. That'll be fun. So yeah, looking forward to that. We, uh, we don't fight at weddings, one of one of the greatest episodes of all time, so tennis, a red dress, What am I trying to get skinny with this clear liquor? Um, oh, we've already, uh, already got a comment from Adrian, can't stay, but wanted to say how wonderful it is to have y'all back.

More importantly, glad you're both in a spot where you're healthy and up for bringing us to your insight and love the universe. So yeah, thank you very much Adrian, and uh, it's great to, it's great to be back and, uh, and hang out with our friends here. So. Hey, Jen's a good guy. He is a really good guy. He is. Oh yeah, he is. Um, so quick question. Overall, uh, just overall season 11, what was your, what was your thoughts on that, just kind of briefly before we get into it?

Yeah, I mean, if you go by our rating system, I believe I gave it a low fresh, A low? Yeah. Okay. Maybe hot clearance, low fresh. It was, it was kind of, you know, it was teetering. It was, it was nice. It was a good, uh, good season. But, um, yeah. Yeah. You know, there's some things that left me a little lacking, but, uh, yeah. Yeah. I, I don't disagree with that at all. I mean, there were some that were really good highlights that I liked and, uh, yeah.

So, um, so what else have you been up to there, Al? Um, oh, not much. You know, I'm not busy at all. Um, I mean, I know you're doing, uh, uh, your, your show, the, uh, the Oh God, yes, we are open. Um, how's that going for you? So, I mean, I'm in, in the middle of season four right now, which is, I mean, it's when, when I'm in season for that, uh, for that podcast, I've got no time for anything else.

I'm, I was happy to be able to join you guys tonight bec, but, uh, otherwise I'm still, I'm working on these like, around the clock, but, uh, they, they've been a lot of fun. It's been really gratifying getting to travel, uh, you know, across Canada and interviewing, you know, people about their businesses and telling their stories and stuff. It's been really fun. Like, I, I never thought I'd, I'd get to do something like this, so. That's awesome. Surreal. Yeah. It's so cool.

I, I mean, the traveling part sounds like, sounds horrible, but you just, you like to travel. I like to travel, so I was like, Ooh, this, that sounds fun. Yeah, I, oh, I enjoy traveling and it's, it's within my own country, so you don't have to like, the, the part I hate about traveling is like customs and all that shit, right? Yeah. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Getting on a plane and getting off and walking out the airport without worrying about customs. Show me all papers. Yeah, exactly.

Uh, anything else you're doing? Um, uh, well, I mean, yeah, that's the, and then, you know, we're, we're working on the produce stand and we're right now off season, as you guys know. That's always fun because Yeah. Yeah. Uh, there's no roadmap for this, right? Yeah. There are no, there are no episodes to talk about, so we're kind of adlibbing as we go, but we're, we're having fun with it. And, and our listeners are, are he helping out?

Like last week we had, um, uh, a couple of our listeners come and, and kick out their, their favorite tennis scenes, right. So that's Oh, I need to go back and watch off. Yeah. The top. And he seen tennis is in pretty much, yeah, exactly. Oh, I know. And then when we run outta that stuff, there's some, some, uh, kind of off let off universe stuff that we're thinking about doing.

Like there's, that, there's a show, uh, featuring, uh, Teo Horn and, um, uh, Vanessa Matsui, she plays, um, the, uh, bro, dude, uh oh yeah. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Yeah. The two of them have this, uh, uh, YouTube series called Ghost bff. So we're, we're, we're, we're thinking about maybe, do, you know, looking at that and kind of applying what we do to letter Kenny mm-hmm. To that show. Yeah. See how to, cause it's, it's, it's fun.

Uh, I've, I've already, I watched the first season and it's, it's different, but, but kind of neat. And, uh, it features two of our favorite character, so why not totally. Yeah, get after it. So, um, so let's get into the, uh, the recap of season 11. Uh, our first episode chips, uh, where we had our, uh, first time guest, Aaron, uh, to kick off Season 11. Uh, there was lots of discussions of chips and fifth though, and lots of tropes, plenty of fun.

Uh, I think I can, I speak probably for both of us that we really enjoyed this episode. Had a blast with our longtime friend, first time guest. Yes, Aaron, uh, really enjoyed the tropes, uh, dissected in the up in the episode. Um, I did have, uh, one observation about Glen's exercise regimen, but I did have one observation that I wanted to bring up was the amount of weight that they were putting on the bar for Glen. Equaled about 405 pounds. Right, right. There's no way. Right. There's no way.

I mean, yeah. Watching them struggle to put the, put the, you're right. That's, it's, I haven't written down. Yeah. He had four plates on either side. Um, plus the bar itself, plus the bar itself. So, and that's, so that's 45. Five close times, times a lot. 8, 9, 8. Yeah. Nine. Yeah. Four, five. Yeah, because you're eight and then nine, the bars, the bar is 45 as well. Mm-hmm. So, yeah. So that's, that's, that's what I've got.

If that bench weren't perfectly balanced, it would've like, fallen on to Oh, yeah. Like the Flinstones mobile, when they put the big rack of ribs on it. Yeah. It would've, would've done. Yeah. You totally gotta, you gotta, it was good that Dax and Ron were there putting 'em on at the same time, so, yeah. I wonder how, I have seen a number of guys do that. I wonder how many times they had to shoot that so that it didn't. Topple over.

Like, they had to be very precise about getting it on the same time. I'm, I'm sure there were instruction. I mean, cause they were, they were in a gym, so there had to be somebody there, you know, being, uh, the safety person hopefully. Um, so the cool thing, cool thing about this episode, about those scenes in particular. Yeah. So one of our listeners, uh, Tobias, uh, actually had a, a one for a Sudbury trip, a few last month I believe. And he, and he, he came on and talked all about it.

He met up with the owners of that gym as an apparent, called the basement. Really? There or, yeah, basement. Yeah. He went pizza, music. He really wanted to go to the basement. So he did, he met up with the owners and chatted with them apparently. One or both of them or whatever are the two guys working out behind in all those scenes. Nice. Yeah. Yeah, that's, yeah. Yeah. Cause that was definitely an observation. Oh yeah.

So, uh, but then, you know, the chips, uh, up, uh, portion of, uh, you know, Aaron Love, uh, rolleds greatest desire, rolled really loved and wanted it to be called regular old letter to me. Yes. I wrote that to like, I was like, I know what to write in his birthday card. Yes. If I ever had, and then, and of course kids is a, of course, Katie, Katie with her hating of everything is any who. Yeah. Katie's never really been nice to roll.

No. Except she's been never been nice to really anybody except for Wayne. And she's That's true. She's just gr she's grumpy all the time. Is it because she's not, Having the sex with, right? Yeah. She doesn't have two boyfriends anymore. Yeah. Actually we haven't seen her with a regular boyfriend since that one. Yeah. So. Oh, Katie. Katie needs, Katie needs to fall in love. Yeah. Yes, she does. Next season maybe. She definitely needs to get laid. That's well, yeah.

Um, I think there was only one scene in this se in this season that she even was like, interested in something. I wonder if he liked Sex with Girls. Yeah, that would be great. Great one. Is somebody there? I don't know. And I wonder if he likes Sex with Women. Um, I always, I mean, because he was such a fun character, uh, the doctor from last season. Yeah. I think it'd be great if he came back and maybe became like a Katie Love interest or something. That would be an interesting, I agree.

Might be too goofy for her, but, uh, I think it'd still be a fun, or maybe Dr. McDavid. Yeah. Oh, which one though? Right? Senior? Yeah. Or senior. Oh, dad or grandpa? All three of them. There is one thing though, because we were saying that like she's never really nice to anybody. She is nice to the other women for the most part.

Yeah. Um, yeah, Rosie definitely Rosie and like, even Tannis, like, she doesn't quite get, she's not on the same level that Rosie and Tans are on, but like, when she understands what's being asked for, she's like, oh yeah, you know, he's, you know, he's building some furniture for me or whatever. Um, later in the, another episode. But, uh, and she's got a secret handshake with Gail, so we know that they go back. You got smack on the ass. A smack on the ass between her and Rosie constantly.

Just, I love that. Yep. I love it. But, um, but yeah, our, our fuck fight feta winner for this. Uh, he, he was the only one, uh, was Ron, um, right, right. He was the consensus winner in this because all kinds of gay straight up the air. Um, yep. So what we talk about here, what are we even talk, so who would, what are even doing, who, who, who would've been your fuck fight fur winner for this uh, episode?

Oh man. Um, I mean, I'm partial to, I'm partial to, well, no, it's Bonnie, it's Bonnie fucking Inly all dressed. Oh, yeah. What the fuck? Nah, I, I agree with that. I mean, I was, I, she was definitely on my list. I mean, um, but yeah, totally. I agree. Mm-hmm. Um, anything else you want to talk about on this one before we move to. Uh, just that all dressed chips are the best. Oh, agree. Almost brought my, I cuz I, I They don't sell 'em here in Oregon. Yeah, they sold them in Washington. Mm-hmm.

Okay. They don't sell, so I had to order 'em from Amazon. I actually think, I mean, like we're I, I work in another state, like I one of these days you have to actually come and pick me up. Should go to qfc, see if we can do it. Yeah, there you go. So I only worked, although 10 minutes away, but it's in Washington, so I only knew the ruffles ones until I like watching this episode. I tried the Dutch, I, I don't, I gotta say they're really good.

They're, I mean, I thought maybe I would miss it being crinkled, but No, they're, they're really good. Hmm. I'll have to order some of those as well because I, those I don't think I've seen down. No. No. Uh, recently on recommendation from one of our listeners tried a masala chip for the first time and they were really good too. Yeah. I like spice. I do like masala. I do too. Yeah. Yeah, they were really good. I was surprised. Mm-hmm. There you, that's my chip contribution.

Give them what was your, what would be, what would've been your favorite chip for that? Was it, I mean, what you agree with everybody else about all dress, but Yeah. Out of the two, out of the two, uh, recipe or two spice ones, which one were you there on? Which one are you more lean on? Um, it's weird because I, I like, I like ketchup and I like barbecue, but only in certain quantities. After a while I get kind of sick of them. Um, you want some dean? Oh God, no. You don't want ketchup chips?

I've had ketchup chip. Okay. They were god awful. Yeah. So I'd have to probably say dil pickles, I think. I think I like dil pickers. I haven't had any of those, but I would definitely, I, I liked, I like pickles, uh, and I like chips, so. Sure. Throw 'em together. I'm good for that. Yeah. Um. Next episode, uh, episode two o Koya, um, an Agatha Christie murder mystery, murder mystery, uh, and taking the piss outta Late Deliveries, uh, tans is the bestie we all need.

Uh, another longtime friend Casey, uh, joined us for her first time on the show. Uh, had so much fun laughing and hanging out that I I I have few, just few memories of this show itself for that one, cuz we just loved hanging out. Um, so yeah, as, uh, we start with, uh, uh, due to the issue that we had with Hiccups, uh, Casey. Oh, we got into a little discussion on how, how to handle those. I tickled the roof of my tongue. That's the top of my tick pate.

I tickled the top of my palate with my tongue. Say that totally. Please stop it. I tickle the roof of my mouth with my tongue Like this. Like just, just behind your teeth. It can. Have you ever tickled that spot? Mm-hmm. Usually try it right now. Everybody's doing out. Take your tongue and just tickled that Richie part. No. Behind your, behind your teeth. Allen knew how to do it. Do it out gently and slow. Like fourplay, like I tickles a little bit, right?

Yeah. Not me, but, so if you go further back behind your pallet, you'll, it'll, it's like a V that opens up and if you like stroke that it's supposed to. So you gotta stroke. Your brain is like making everything dys with your tongue. Yes, we know this. They're your hiccups. Of course. It's how Casey slowly with your tongue. What, that's what you're saying. What fuck is wrong with. Yes. You have to give yourself oral. Yes. That's, yeah. Orally, orally, orally. Oral. You have to orally my back.

This is so meta. It's meta oral. Any good. Uh, you just have to No, you have no Erin. No, no. It's gotta be dental or else you'll hurt yourself. You'll hurt your tongue. I love Casey so much. Oh God. She's going to love that you used that clip. Oh my God. And Erin says, Ms. Vicky's all dressed are delicious. So thank you. Thanks Erin. And you just happen to get mentioned in that portion. I hope you've learned to be gentle with your talk. You. I mean, yeah. Casey's awesome.

Casey, she, she's, uh, she's the leader of our takeover crew. She's been on our podcast a bunch of times. Actually. She's, uh, she's the one interviewing us now. Nope. Oh, hello. Okay. And she's turned the mic around and she's interviewed myself and now Matt, her and Matt had an interview for four 20 last week. Oh, nice. It's something to listen to. So she's slowly going through each one of us, uh, to, uh, yeah. To interview. Um, yeah, I mean, OK. Koya, like it is what it is.

It's, it was, it was, uh, Stewart, you know, chewing up scenes. Mm-hmm. Which were fun. Uh, coach is hilarious in this one. Who, um, the OK Koya scene itself? You know, when we were talking about it on ours, I wasn't a fan of the way Wayne and Squirrly dance are kind of kidding those guys. Whatever. Uh, it is what it is. I love the stud finder bit though. Yeah. I mean, yeah. Everyone's got a stud jump you over here. I'll break her right off. Yeah. But, uh, yeah, it was, it was fine.

Like this one was fine. Yeah. Um, yeah, we, uh, we also got another, uh, quick side John, uh, into a very interesting and hilarious incident that happened with Casey while in Sudbury. All right. So, potato, oh fuck. Hang on. What are we what? Potato. Oh. Love you. I know, I love me too. And, and it's a great moment. Yep. So this, so what happened was, um, how happened was we were, we were in Sudbury and we were living our Shorey dreams.

Uh, a few, me and a few of, uh, uh, friends from the, is that fragrance Shorey game from the universe. The universe from, yeah, from the universe. Um, and we, we went up to Sudbury. We went to a Sudbury Wolves game, which is in the same barn where they film Shorey. Mm-hmm. Um, while we're in the, the, the hall, um, where a lot of the shorey scenes are shot with Laura Moore and all of those folks, um, Max Bfad who plays jj? Frankie. JJ is walking by.

Oh. And up until, and up until that point I'd been fantasizing about like chirping at him. But like, you know, like just fucking yelling some shorty shit at him. But I didn't wanna call him a fucking pizza face or like, you know, shorty says some really like nasty shit to him. So like, wait, wait, Dean. So, so I'm going through it on the way to the barn. I'm like, I don't know what to say to this guy. And the moment happens, right?

And he's walking by and I'm like, And he's getting further and further away, like to the point where he doesn't hear me when I finally yell at the top of my lungs potato like, do you find potato? Everyone is looking at me like, what? I imagine, I think, I think the guy who was walking with Max, who might be one of the high school hockey players, maybe turned his head and then kept, and they just. JJ, max never heard a word. Like Joey, my friend Joey was standing next to me.

Adrian was there, and everybody's there. And now we're all like dead. We're all falling out, pissing ourselves because I just, people must be going, what the fuck people and what is wrong with, with that bitch American are all potato. Yeah. Yeah. Like fall down. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. And I should be fair, I was high at the time, of course. Um, because it's Canada, because you, as you should be. Yes. But yes. So that's, so now whenever you see potato, all right. Potato. That's what that is.

Very good. Oh, so thank you very much Adrian, for bringing that up. I love Adrian. Likes to potato. Adrian likes to pop in here every now and again and give some comments. And so yeah, that's always fun. Again, I love Casey. She's great. She's pretty potato. Potato. Um, uh, fuck fight Feta. Tans was the closest to a full score. She got two, but, uh, Stewart was definitely getting his ass kicked this episode. Mm-hmm. Al you have any other thoughts on, on Okya?

Yeah. No. I mean, tennis all the way for sure. Yeah. Um, I think there's a, you know, this one here was, there, there was really apparent some of the restrictions when they were shooting th these two seasons together, back still kind of during the pandemic. Yeah. Especially in, in that church scene. They were paired off. Yeah. Two by two. Uh, you know, and, and it was just kind of strange to see Tana's up sitting, be sitting mm-hmm. Beside, uh, Glen, right up on the altar.

Like, why is she sitting? It's just, you know, all, there's a lot of things nasty. But yeah. I don't know. It was just kind of strange. But, uh, I mean, they did the best with what they had, I think. And, and, uh, I, I, I enjoyed the whole Agatha Christy, all the, the black and white scenery and stuff. Mm-hmm. There's a lot of scene chewing happening there and a lot of different things that we haven't, we're not used to seeing in letter Kenny, uh, a lot of quick zoom ins and stuff.

Yeah. What I, what I really enjoyed was every one of those, um, tropes that's, that are brought up in the cold open Yep. Get used throughout the, the episode and now here. Cool. Yeah. Um, and yeah. And that's one of the things I've been about all season is all the tropes. All the tropes hitting on by the numbers. Yeah. Um, but yeah. Uh, Yeah, the, the, uh, the Zooms, um, mm-hmm. That's has been, they were all great. Um, especially one that's coming up soon.

But for me, you know, it it, the way that Gail and Coach were interacting, talking about the different sex positions like that, I, I fully ended that episode going, like those two totally hooked up, didn't I? Like Oh, yeah. Because coach was very interested and wonderful. Well, well, not the first time. Remember there was a time where, uh, coach was at the bar and she asked him to dance, and she put his hand on her butt and, you know, and, uh, yeah. You know, you know, that went, yeah. Further.

Of course, of course. I mean, yeah, because it's good Coach. Coach is, coach is not gonna say no, and Gail is always gonna say yes, um, unless she uses her safe word. Um, do you remember what it is? Say that one more time. Yeah. All right then, uh, scene, uh, scene three. It's not episode three.

Uh, lost Dog. Uh, if, if there's anything, if there's anything we, if there's anything we've learned during all the seasons of letter Kenny taking care of your dogs, not giving them human names and being on time tops the list. Mm-hmm. So, uh, it was fun. Uh, you had another long time friend having their first time on the show Trust web. Uh, we had loads of fun.

Um, I brought up a question about, uh, how Tiara and Truss would've handled a asking Tiara Andwe, how they would've handled the April May situation. I have a, I have a question that, um, That I would like both of your opinions on. Uh oh. Um, so, uh, Cassie and Tassie Jrs, uh, I, I'll call 'em, uh, April and May. Um, how would you have handled that if it was you and Riley and Jonesy's situation? I wouldn't have still been there when they showed up.

Well, I mean, you didn't know they were gonna show up. Oh, you mean when they showed up to the gym? Wouldn't have waited for them. The boys were there all afternoon waiting for their date and talking about getting stood up because they had been there waiting. I would not have waited that long. Oh, okay. But let's say you had waited and, and you told the whole explanation like Riley and Jonesie did. Mm-hmm. How would you handle it once they showed up to the game? I'd have a scrap. A scrap.

I'd have a scrap that's a Derby scrap on site. I would. Channel my displeasure into my game. See? Yeah. My, my thought on it was that, you know, I would've told sh Schork that, um, that these, these are just some really strange chicks and they're, they've been hounding 'em all the time, so just go chirp at 'em the entire time. Be as vulgar as possible. I feel like, like Surey would've just flirted with them. Like, I don't see him doing that. You don't see him. I know.

May, maybe the other guy, it's more fun for him to chirp at the boys than it is to chirp at pretty girls. Yeah, I mean, I mean, I would pre, I would've pretended I don't care and just say, these, these chicks are weird and I mean, go chirp at 'em if you want to. They'd probably like some really weird stuff. I would go with that if you're gonna try. Right. I would, I mean, I'd probably just tell one of the other guys, you know, when they start chirping me about it going, I got no idea.

It's all yours. Go ahead. The guest. Get after it. Yeah, get after it. Be as disgusting as possible. I don't think that Riley and Jonesie have thick enough skin to just let it roll off their back. No. There's no way that they could just like, they're sensitive boys, ignore it. Yeah. Um, Al do you have any thoughts on that? What, how would you have handled that situation? Um, I, I, I'm gonna tell you the truth, I would've blown off Beer league and that's what they ended up doing.

Yep. Yeah. Yeah. And they didn't get the girls. No. I mean, uh, so in the end they, they, they, they lost out on both there. Um, really cool thing about the cold open here. Mm-hmm. That hockey menu. Yes. Uh, you know, probably lost on a lot of people who aren't hockey fans. Yeah. Obviously it's Victor's favorite cold open ever.

In Hi. In the two minutes or however long that scene was, I, I actually counted this morning when I went, when I watched this, the, the, uh, the season in preparation for today, 78 hockey puns. Wow. Now that's a minimum. There was probably more that I missed, but there were at least 78 Wow. Hockey puns in that. Yeah. There were probably some that were combined. Mm-hmm. Plus, uh, so there's that, um, you know, lot, you know, lots to chew on there. Uh, yeah.

I mean, and return to the Dicks Love, love that, love seeing that, you know, dogs are only good for two things for, uh, in the men night community. Twerk and tweet, twerk. Uh, tweet. Yeah. We do have a dog that twerks. We do, we do have a dog that twerks especially, and they almost called Winter Coat is trying to get out of her. Yeah. And they all almost called Gregory Monster. Dick in Penn. Dick. Yes. And s t d, uh, Sarah Dick, I think it was supposed to be. Anyway.

Yeah, this one here was, was a really, this is a strong episode. I, I, I enjoyed this one quite a bit. Yeah. And, uh, dress had some thoughts on that as well. Payne took a serious backseat on this episode. Mm-hmm. I mean, he was there Yeah. As some, maybe some sort of anchor, but, uh, you know, the front section, you know, it was basically, uh, Glenn and everybody else doing it. And then there was that Glen and Rosie.

Yeah. Glen and Rosie. And Gwen and Rosie threw out the beautiful, beautifully edited mm-hmm. Beautifully filmed tracking shot. Mm-hmm. Of them walking. Yeah. Which, so cool. And even then, you know, Wayne's just sort of in the background, he'll throw a, a one-liner in here and there, but he absolutely was a secondary character in this episode. Right. And yeah.

You know, and Glen, and more to the point, you know, Rosie, this was really like, Rosie front and center on an episode, not just, I absolutely love that. Oh, yeah. I mean, because it's, it's all about building this community Yeah. Of characters that they can draw from. And in the end, well, you just put the camera on, uh, what, you know, Jonathan Torrance and Sarah Wayne Callon, like, get out their way, can confirm. Oh, yeah. Mm-hmm.

So as fuck, fight further went, uh, Rosie was the clear winner in this one, April, may, and Shorey all better run, um, because they're all, they're, we're gunning for 'em. Uh, so Al now how about you? Yeah, Rosie, I'm a big fan of Rosie. I, I really enjoyed also how squirrely Dan. They put, they stuck him with the, with the skids and, yeah. Yeah. And that was a lot of fun to watch. Uh, him, his discomfort being with the skid. That was, I thought your last name was Dan.

That's what you think My first name was Squirrly, but then he answered his phone. Squirrly Dan's phone, squirrly Dan speaking and never says anything. Yeah. And Anita Dick, I mean. Oh, yes. Yeah, Anita. She was, she was definitely on my list. She's always on my list. Tans Anita, Dick. I think there was one time I did wanna fight Tans, but I, I don't remember when that was. That was, I think that was the, uh, casual misogyny. Mm-hmm. When they were actually trying to date. Yeah, that was me too.

Like the old college try where she was making fun of him for the way he was sitting, crossing legs. Legs, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like I, that's, that's definitely the one where I was like, mm-hmm. No, we, the fight. You got any extra insight on this out? Did you want to bring up? No, that's just, that's it. Um, sts I mean, did you guys know? I, I since, but I can't remember whether you knew what s sts meant. I, my thought on it was, I mean, in context it just seemed like how hot they were.

Yeah. So s Steeze, I looked it up. Yeah. That's, uh, style at ease. So basically how people, you know, people's styles when, when it looks like they're not trying, but they're actually trying secretly, but they're dressing like they're not, ah, s steeze. All right. Then style at ease, like kids these days with their. Thanks. Uh, then we get into episode four, nudes.

Uh, whether it's, uh, handling someone else's nudes or dealing with someone else's, dealing someone else's drugs, full understandings must be hat. Uh, it was great having our resident joint Boy slash Chevy Chase back on the show to get, uh, get completely rude and crude as we talk about nudes. Uh, and that was, and Renate and Carac, if he didn't know I was talking about, um, I know that Wayne doesn't have nudes on his phone, but I had some questions about what he might have us on, on his phone.

And I'm just thinking Wayne has, let's see, uh, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. He has, Wayne has five pictures on his phone. He's got, he's got Rosie, Katie, Dan, and dairy. No. Yeah, Rosie, Katie. Dan Dairy, stormy and Gus, Dan, and Dairy are one in, one picture, one picture. Those are the five pictures Dwayne has on his phone. I bet though I, in my head, I'm, I'm just imagining that he's got a whole like, screenshot thing of, of like the way that he does have these special interests of his pocket.

People like Bondar? No, like Bondar. Like I bet he has like a whole like, screenshot folder full of like bondar facts and pictures or something, you know, like, I don't think it's one picture story. I think it's 5,000 pictures of all of the dogs on the farm. This guy was about to say, I'm gonna get weird with it. I'm gonna say he's probably got a bunch of like, like an uncomfortable amount of number of pictures of like, perfectly stacked bales and I forgot about that.

Yeah. Like, just like, you know what I mean? Like, it's like, you know, like, Satisfaction to, he's so proud of it. Hell yeah. Just like, and he's just like, he's got video that's, you watch his Instagram, he's got videos of him stacking hay, perfectly Barley watches videos of like people doing farm porn. People just shoveling fucking pig pens. People just fucking stacking gals and bales ch.com. Oh yeah. Uh, I don't disagree with that. My, yeah, my attitude is not changed about that.

Although I, I do think, um, now that I'm like re-listening to that, there was, um, the scene where, It was in Influenzas, the scene where they, they go to the Dick's farm and like, what the fuck are you doing? Like, I feel like maybe now Wayne looked at him like, I would've watched that. Like what is there, is there something wrong with that? Yeah. Um, and then, uh, Tiara had a query about Gail's nude. Oh. Do you think Gail sent dairy the nude after?

Because he's just complaining of not being able to see it. If she remembered, I think she would. I think she definitely would. Yes. The answer is yes. Yes. She, yes she did. This house is clean. Oh, the house. It's clean. Um, okay. And then thank you guys for getting that reference. Uh, and because this episode, Jim Dickens was both, both literally and Figura, figuratively, head and shoulders above the rest. Mm-hmm. Um, and impressed Bonnie made, you know, oh, totally.

That that could be, you know, a down the line thing that Yeah. Cuz she was like, there's men like that still. Uh, I love that part. And the McMurrays are gonna be catching hands, so, uh, so out, uh, your fuck fight for a winner, uh, or you have a, a fight as well. Uh, and other thoughts you may have on this episode. Oh, the McMurrays for sure. Mc McMurray. Fight onsite for, for doing that to poor Dickens. I mean, he was the only, the was there for a hot up. Come on. Um, yeah.

Uh, kudos to the, for the return of Alexander. Yes. Um, yes. It was great to see him. Uh, roll's performance in this one is probably one of my favorites in the entire letter. Ken series of his character, the scene where he's, um, in the basement and he's trying to convince Stewart to, to admit that cannabis is a drug. Yep. Yep. And he's way, he's slithering around Stewart while he's sitting on the chair and whispering into his ear and doing all that stuff. Amazing physical acting, if any.

Uh, I highly recommend people to take a second watch. I think what the thing we said about that is he was like, uh, magenta or riff rap. Yes. From, uh, Rocky Horror. Rocky Horror, yes. Yeah. He was so good in that. Um, Rated for everyone. Amazing. E for everyone. Amazing line. And did you know that at Italian have, uh, narrow urethra is, I mean, I didn't know that. Is is that a real fact? Is that true?

I just thought it was something that, you know, Wayne said it so must been true bad gas travels fast through it through Italy. Um, yeah, so, um, so yeah, those are kind of my notes there. Um, Ari being a drug dealer, that was kind of disappointing, but, uh, he just wants weed because then, uh, I don't know if he was in this, uh, episode or the, oh no, it was the next episode. The hicks referred to him as the Jewish skid. Yeah. That new Jewish skid.

I was like, well, I mean, but he's a hockey player. I don't know. Just, it was weird that, that suddenly as soon as anyone in town knows he's dealing and Yeah. As soon, well, yeah, well as soon as you're, you're dealing, you're a skid automatically, so Yeah. Um, next one, episode five, influenzas, uh, with, uh, let's see, enga, yeah.

Engagement Photographers and Influencers. Invade Letter Kitty while Luciann and Betty, and have to deal with Coach Okur, uh, Okur, uh, uh, when you have a friend who's not only a letter Kitty Pan, but is also New York Times bestselling author, you, you get them on your show, uh, for some, uh, good laughs and Keen Insight. And David Mack is not only awesome guest, but he's a great writer as seen, uh, with a few of our table reads. So, yes. Um, yeah.

Uh, as kinda like Stuart, I, uh, I posited that, uh, as was stated early on by Joint Boy, that Alexander is not quite as portrayed Now. The thing I wanted to bring up about Alexander Yes, real quick was he's not a slow slur, slow learning cousin that joint boy had him pegged at in the first season. So right. He is obviously very smart. So I just thought, thought, I mean, he did some of the best cold opens.

I mean, remember the one, uh, where he, he shows up and, and he's talking about the, he has to put together the buck and dough mm-hmm. For his cousin. Right. Well, my cousin's a grmp and his, uh, his Swedish suwat. Yeah. And remember when I said he's a grown producer, tw the numbers reflect that he does kinda get some of the best runs. He reflect flag. He's very sharp. He is. He's on it.

So, I mean, he may not be in the best of situations, uh, for himself, but, um, but he's happy with, with what he does. Definitely. You know, he is, he is. He is more not, he ashamed to make $10 an hour. He toilets, he more, yeah. He is more than content with his lot in life, it seems. Yeah. So we can all be so lucky what you do. You'll never work a daily life. Precisely. So I just, I, I do just wanna say something that I did not say during that.

Um, there is a very real chance that he was probably in special ed growing up, and so he just had that label and nobody really explored it any differently. Hmm. Um, that very much is in line with somebody in what I'm guessing is like, you know, late thirties, early forties, like growing up. At that time, he would've just been, oh, that's slow learning fella because they, he had trouble in school, not that he wasn't smart.

Yeah. Like, probably never even like whatever IQ tests he did just went on a piece of paper and they saw the discrepancy between the IQ and what he could do and just wrote it all up. I mean, I would say in episode one, season one, episode one, he was kind of written that way. I'm guessing that they Yeah. Have, uh, influenced that character a bit more, but also he was drunk True in that episode. True, true. So I don't think we've seen Alexander drunk since then. Yeah. Yeah, not so much.

Uh, Tiara also brought up a few keen observations that leads into a conversation about Gail and the McMurray's. So in, in the scene when Katie, uh, goes to hit on that, that dude in the bar, um, I love that he, like, she's looking at him like thinking he's cute, he's there, sit taking selfies, like, you know, he's like doing it for like Tinder or something like that. Was what my first friend is his own brand.

Yeah. Yeah. Yes. Um, getting high on his own supply coach picked his nose several times during this week episode. Um, and he just doesn't care. Right. Uh, look away, Barb. This is Rock McMurray and Gail flirting. Do so. Um, I mean, I know it wasn't like, yeah, I know it wasn't outright, but McMurray's face after Gail said, you know, put a finger up her ass. He, he was like, Ooh, I'm into it. Like, well, the thing is, we know from, uh, we know they've, they Yeah. Episode we know they've hook up.

Hey, they've hooked up with her before we know they've hooked up. I really wanna know how often, like, I wanna know if they're like, fuck buddies. Um, like I just feel like no ass play unless I ask for it. Right. And I, and I will ask for it. My say where it is. Yeah. Even, uh, that's very memorable. So, uh, fuck Fight Feta. Katie, Maryanne and Anita Dick are all getting some hot steamy loving, uh, the McMurray's dairy and coach Better hide, uh, cuz they got, yeah. They're all catching it.

Um, al Yeah. Uh, Katie has the worst taste in men. Yeah. Generally speaking. Yeah. Yeah, she likes the self-absorbed type. Yeah, for sure. Like if you think about DS and the, the influencer that she was looking at, like, uh, I think it's easy models. What, uh, Shep and Kingsley or whatever. I think it's because they're easy to drop. I guess. I guess, yeah. Well, um, and Dean, you actually pointed out something today when we did our rewatch that I don't think we noticed before.

Yeah. When she joined him at the table, they took selfies or they took a, he was taking selfies with her. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Usy Sie. Um, I'm too old to say that. It sounds weird. That's an usy. It's mental. I thought you were calling her a hussy for a second if she owns it. Sure. I mean, yeah. I don't mind. That's not necessarily about, I don't mind. Uh, my only other thing here, I mean, it was, it was a fun episode. Yeah. Picks the charcuterie. Yeah. That's the summer soft, just waiting.

Yeah. I love that scene. So understated that I'm sure a lot of people watched it cuz I think I missed it the first time. Well, right at the end, do I see like when, when Katie leaves, they, they take a bite of whatever they were holding. Oh, were they waiting? And then I rewound, I'm like, oh. Oh, the whole time they were like waiting to to, to eat their wait. Waiting for Katie to end. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Because the other thing on that one was the, the, the zoom on Katie, well, what are you gonna do now? And they zoom in, compete, and there's that big pregnant pause. And Wayne goes, how? How? Yeah. I mean, cuz right after that you're expecting the montage. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, compete. And I believe in the, in the, well not, I believe, I know in the d in the nudes, uh, episode, they do that zoom in when Rosie says vigilante justice. Mm-hmm. I've used it quite a bit in this season.

Yeah. Yeah. When they were going to each group, um, and the, uh, in, with the, the, uh, episode two oh koya where they, you know, Glenn called and like they look at the phones and they zoom in. Yeah. So yeah. Quite, quite a few times this season. Um, so who's, who's on your, uh, your fuck fight further for this one? Oh, I mean, fuck, you know what, um, I, I really enjoyed Maryanne and Lucianne the, that haw thing too.

And, and, and, uh, um, oh, Tessa Banham and, oh, I forget the other Sam Joe Small. Yeah. Sam Joe Small. That was so fun. And everyth, like Tessa could not let it go without ever saying most silver. Yeah. Just, uh, hilarious. Oh, I've got a hu I I've got the hugest crush on Tesson. Good lord. She's got the, she got the little chin dimple too. Yeah. Scene was hilarious. I love coach in that, so I give him a, a fur for that alone. Um, and fight, I mean, uh, I felt so, oh, oh.

I felt so bad for that one guy. The, the, the, the couple, the, the third, the last couple that was having, being photographed and he was being asked to do all, you could tell he, well, first of all, Mr. Neck tattoo does not want to look cute. Right. Um, Mr. Neck tattoo, who was wearing like Birkenstocks and socks, but whatever. Yeah. When he looks over to the, the Hicks and they just kind of shake their heads, like they're so disappointed.

And one of the things, one of the things I noticed about him, he looked very similar to one of the guys in Glen's porno Mag. Mm-hmm. Wh which I, I, cuz I first noticed the guy in Porno Mag and I said, he looks a bit like Tyson. And then I said, this guy looks a bit like Tyson. So now I have to go back and see, was it the same guy? Did they like take his picture and Photoshop him on? Or maybe he is a gay porn actor. I don't know, maybe.

Anyway, ed to him, just because I felt for him, fight all the photographers and, uh, fuck. I mean, uh, I can't, I, I don't know. I don't know who fucking this one, but, uh, Katie got one from me. Yeah. I, I, so Katie was across the board, which is, you know, for, for tr that's very surprising. True story. Um, but yeah. And then Anita Dick, of course. Oh yeah. So from there we go on to, uh, the Degens.

So, um, Jiv and Pete has reached the end of Wayne's Rope while everyone else is worried about being that guy. Of course, no season of how are you now? It could be complete with other VI visits for a well known and highly regarded anti. Awesome. Um, I had a question about this episode and Awesome. Had to answer right there. I know. Uh, but yeah, why did the Hicks not go to the birthday party?

I mean, I'm sure there are because Wayne just did something he had been trying to avoid doing the entire episode, and he wasn't in the moody mood to go to some Revel about it. Good. You don. That's how we gotta pop up at that time. I, uh, I, I get that perspective, but I feel, I feel disappointed that they didn't go. Um, I mean that's because I completely agree with Riley and Jones. They've quite, a lot of shit's happened. They've quite often had fights and ended up back at my deans.

Yep. It's about an issue. It's, it happened often. And, and this is not the first time they've fought the Deit. Mm-hmm. No. But this is the first time that Wayne has had to give up on a friend whom he was trying to help. Okay. Okay. That's, that's a good thought. All right. You know, like Pete literally came with his hat in his hand into his house, yeah. Mm-hmm. And asked him for help.

And Wayne did his best to help this guy who was his friend, but, His friend was just not willing to put the effort in. So Wayne's got to deal with his behavior, and it is his responsibility now because he's the one who hired him. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. So yeah, that was, I thought that was, that was an interesting take that I didn't even considered. Yeah. Yeah. I agreed. And, and she brought that up with us too, and I get it. And I, I mean, and that did make it, make that last scene make sense.

Mm-hmm. Yeah. I think where, where, I mean, kind of maybe because of the season felt kind of short Yeah. Was in, on a show like this where, I mean, it's, it's very much, you know, lots of sketches and stuff and, and, and some great character development. But in, I didn't, I don't think they developed that relationship between Jive and Pete and the Hicks. Enough Mm. To make that last scene land Yeah. The way they wanted it to. Yeah. You know what I mean?

Yeah. Like, I get it cuz I've given up on friends who acted exactly like j Pete did. You, you helped them, you helped 'em, you helped them, but it was, it's never their fault. And in the end you just gotta cut ties. Right. Yeah. You just gotta do that and it feels like shit. Yeah. I get it. I don't think they developed that enough to earn the heavy ending that they, they were looking for. Right. But that's my only kind of, you know, uh, flaw in, in that episode.

Cause I thought it was a beautiful episode. Hmm. Like some of the thoughts. It was gorgeous and, and, uh, I loved all the doc chirps. I loved all the sunglass. It was a very funny episode. It was, and in the end you wanted, I I was, I wanted it to land.

The way they intended it to, but it, it, it just felt a little bit short and, and yeah, going back and watching it today, I did notice something that I hadn't noticed before where they're all sitting at the produce stand, Dan is, he's like shaking his head. Yeah. And so, yeah. That, which made it even more Yeah. Understandable. So, yes. Uh, awesome. Is completely right there.

Uh, I, you know, they all, I think you're right too though, Al it does feel like they wanted it to be a heavy feeling and it just gonna missed just a little bit. Yeah. Up until now, the heavy stuff has landed so well. Yeah. And in every other, uh, season, every other episode when they've wanted it to, I think it's, they've, they've succeeded in this one here. And it, it might've just been, you know, they, they picked up the whole Jed story, like, Three episodes into this one, right?

If they maybe had started it a little sooner, like if they were able to tie it in a bit, like from episode one, maybe like, yeah, we remember back when they, when they, you know, back in what season two or whatever, when they're saying Jiv, Pete's a good guy. He's a really good guy. Like we, we remember that. But that was a long time ago now and forever. He's been a degen since then, right?

Mm-hmm. You know, I mean, Wayne even beat him up for, for ca calling Katie, like, yeah, they've already had these fights, right? Uh, so to me, oh, you hadn't given up, given up on him yet. Okay. So you need to earn that idea because up until now I thought, oh, you've already gi given up on him. He's hanging out with the guy with the three names, Oron, Allister, or Westwood.

Yeah. He's already hanging out with them, Courtney, so he must, um, anyway, uh, yeah, I think that was the only thing, like, uh, they don't, they seldom fall short with their heavy. Scenes and I, I just thought in this case they, they did. Yeah. Um, I mean, and the, one of the things that I was wondering, um, I brought up today is, and the answer is probably no, but I was wondering if Pete was doing that to get back at what Katie did to him.

Um, you know, if there was that, if he had a bit of a long game plan. But I mean, I don't really think he, no, he thinks that way. I mean, I think, I think they were trying to do that kind of arc of, uh, you know, redemption for j Jiv Pete, or failed redemption. Mm-hmm. But again, yeah, the whole Katie, you know, kicked to the nu nuts like nudes was too fresh in everyone's mind, mind like that happened. That season. Right. Or a couple of episodes before. So again, how is he not a degen?

If that's the reason, which is another thing Dean brought up, if that's a reason for j Pete to come to their door and basically like, okay, yeah, I, I can see that I am this shitty person. Help me. Mm-hmm. Like, that's fine.

But it still didn't, there was not enough in between that and the ending for it to feel like he was trying and then slowly giving up, which is what I think they were trying to, uh, because at the beginning he was like full in like doing all the things sweeping up, even like, you know, anytime when anyone walked by helping Katie out with the, with all the influences.

Yeah. But that, like, if they had showed that like over the course of a period of time instead of the next episode, he's fucking up. Yeah. I think that that would've been, that would've hit a little different. Yeah, and I'm never, I'm never gonna like, uh, uh, criticize a comedy for missing on a, on a, a heavy scene, right? Like if it's funny. It's funny. So whatever they tried, they tried to go a little serious here. That's fine. But, uh, yeah, overall I, I still gave the season afresh.

Yeah. But yeah, that, that, that felt a li felt a little short. And I mean, I'll, I'll, I'll rely on what Victor's often says. If I had to have somebody explain it to me, then it wasn't quite, it didn't land the way it should have. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, cuz I will say that because there was some heavy stuff in Shorey, which all landed. Mm-hmm. Uh, yeah. I mean, there was no questions about it. So, uh, we know they have the, the capacity for that and I mean, and it's happened bef Yeah.

Like you said, it's happened before in letter Kenny. So Yeah. That's, so yeah, it's, uh, I think, yeah, it definitely could have been done better. Um, was it bad? Not at all. Um, so yeah, I had a lot of fun with that. Um, one of the, uh, one of the things also that I liked going back and watching it today was the synced up music during the fight. Yes. That's like one of my favorite so, and a great song. What a fucking great song.

Yeah. It's, I mean, it's, it's, it's not, it's the antithesis of a fight song. Mm-hmm. But it's, yeah. It's very, it's very poignant. Yeah. And that moon lid drive back in the back of the pickup truck mm-hmm. After the fight was beautiful. Like, kudos to Billy Buttrey for that. Yep. Uh, and, and yeah, even just the difference in seeing the, the, the produce stand at night in the dark. Mm-hmm. Uh, I mean, when I saw it I'm like, this means something here. And I j again, I didn't get it.

Yeah. You know, until Awesome. Explained it. So Yeah. Awesome. Picks up on that shit. Yeah. I love that. Uh, so one other thing, one other clip from the episode, uh, Tiara spotted that Wayne had some growth over the season. I love it. Um, uh, Wayne realizing his joke wasn't funny. That's right. So good. Harkins back to the, uh, Uh, the, the, the Florida seminal vesicles one. Yes. Florida State seminal Les seminal vesicles.

But this time, instead of kind of getting upset that they didn't laugh, he was like, well, that one didn't hit. Guess not. I feel like he's, you know, he's matured in his humor where he's like, okay, fine. That one didn't work. Let's move on instead of getting upset about it, which is huge growth for somebody sometimes. Yeah. Especially my poor little goober son just wants to be funny and nobody's doing him an inch. I'm like, damn it. I thought I was Okay.

Fine. He's already learned that It's tough sledding up there for a comedian. True story. Oh, yeah. So, yeah, that was, uh, yeah, I, I, I agree with that. You know that. Mm-hmm. He's, uh, he's, he's, he's had some growth since then. Yes. Sure. Watching that this morning. I, I, I, I thought back to Tiara's comments on your episode about that. I'm like, yeah, okay. I didn't never notice that the first time, but yeah, you're right. The last time he kind of sulked and then he Yeah.

Hit the whole Florida state seminal vesicles thing was Yeah. I mean, even this, he's still salt in this one, but he didn't like little bit bring it up Blake. Mm-hmm. It's like, well, but I mean, he and he had a sulk about, uh, when he was going through the tropes about you bitch. Yes. Who's the bitch now? And Katie was like, I don't, yeah. He's like, bows his head and walks back. Uh, so fuck. Fight fir on this. We all wanted to jump Dr. McDavid. Yes. And all wanted to kick j Pete's ass.

Of course. Yes. Oh yeah. Easy al. Yeah. J Easy Jiv and Pete needed to get his ass kicked. Um, yeah, she was kind of acute, the, the eye doctor, so why not? And, uh, ferta, I mean, Wayne, because I've been there. Yeah. I've been there having to give up on a friend. Yeah. I I I know what that's like. Yeah. I mean, yeah, it was, it was a, it was disappointing, I guess. Mm-hmm. You know, I'm not mad. I'm disappointed. Yeah. So, but yeah. That's, that's the season.

What, what are you looking forward to in, uh, season 12? Uh, you know, this season felt like I, I wouldn't mind to see like, to, to, to give more weight to this season. Uh, driving Pete, trying to, trying again, re trying again. Yeah. I wouldn't mind seeing that. I don't know if that has to happen right away in season 12, or if they can wait a while. But I'd like to see some relationships blossom here.

I mean, unfortunately it looks like Gail and Dickens are done, uh, which is too bad cuz I really like those two together. But yeah, I'd love to see some, some relationships there. Somebody for Katie maybe, or Bonnie or, or something. That'd be kind of fun. Um, here's something, and I mean, I hope they have it in their long-term goals be to, to cause some conflict or some, some, some stress in these storylines. And because it, for me, the fights have become really predictable.

I hate to say it, but Wayne has to lose a fight. Wayne has to lose a fight to somebody if to, to get some Dr. To create some drama. Should, should it be someone we already know or. That's a great question. I feel like in the past he's already almost lost to, uh, the, the head degen there, the four name, aal, Allister, Orson, Westwood, Yates. Okay. Thank you Dean. I'll never get that. Yep, me neither. So it could be him, like, cuz then we can see, we can watch Dan, uh, Wayne deal with the follow.

And it could be that, you know, he, he, I guess we kind of did that when, when Tyson knocked him out with the sucker punch. Mm-hmm. So I thought it happened once before, but. I think he's gotta lose it, which, yeah, no, it's not. He's gotta lose it. A legitimate fight and then have like, let's see how he deals with that. Yeah. He's had some close ones for sure. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. And he's been bailed out by, by dairy a few times, you know, fights.

Yeah. One thing that I, I think that could make that interesting is if there's a fallout between either him and dairy or him and Dan. Um, yeah. And having them fight each other. Yeah. I feel like though, that like, so I feel like they kind of avoid serious topics that aren't funny and they're, I I, I have a hard time figuring out how they could make, I. Of a rift between him and Dan or dairy. Funny. Mm-hmm.

Whereas if he loses to a, you know, somebody, uh, either an outsider or to Oliver, whatever his name is, Alison something. Orson Westwood Gates. I liked Oliver though, that, that it, we totally fits the first time I said, I said Alison, so I think I, I, I stumbled through his name so poorly that I, I, I've just become gun shy, but you know what I mean? Like Yeah. I feel like it, it'd be hard for them. It would be too heavy if it was between him and one of his buddies.

I think it need, it needs to be a com, either a complete stranger or one of the degens. Yeah. I, I, hmm. I don't know. Yeah. That would make it interesting. Anyway, maybe, uh, what's his name? Um, fuck, uh, Bradley, maybe Bradley comes back and they get fight. Oh, that's for some reason. Yeah. Jesus. My brain was just like, oh man, he's, and that's gonna cause problem with Rosie again. Right. But he's, he's too big a star now. I don't think he'll ever come back athletic Kenny. Too bad.

Yeah. Yeah. I, yeah. Like who else, who else from like a past season that we haven't seen in a while would be cool to see come back, other than the student Devin that we'll never see. Can you imagine? Or Devin comes back as, you know, he's pumped Devin, but like Devin is now a woman. Like, I'd be okay with that kind of, cuz we haven't had any of that representation on letter Kenny. Yeah. Yeah. That's certainly wouldn't fight him. No, Wayne wouldn't fight her, but maybe Katie would.

No. Yeah. But yeah, I, I, I know I just, the only problem with that is trans, uh, uh, uh, I non-trans person playing a trans person. Yeah. No, I wouldn't want the actor, I wouldn't want the same actor to come back. Mm. Like, I mean, if, if, if I'm dreaming here, let's just go with Jamie Clayton because I'm in love with her. And I, maybe that could be the theory of, uh, gay. Gay is actually, actually Devin isn't, isn't, um, Oh, what's, what's his name now? Um, Ellen Page. What, what, what?

Elliot Uh, Elliot, yeah. Elliot isn't Elliot Canadian? I mean, maybe he, he can come on. I don't know. Uh, but, uh, I mean, he is doing action scenes in Umbrella Academy, so Yeah. Maybe he's biggest star. He's kinda tiny though. Yeah. Yeah. Probably not any bigger than rolled prob Prob actually probably would be about right.

Yeah. Anyway, like, yeah, just in terms of keeping things interesting that might, I mean, always, you know, keep the funny, but, uh, if you wanted to like an interesting storyline, it would be, oh, Wayne dealing with not being the toughest guy in letter Kenyon anymore. So that'd be kind of in Interesting. Well, another, yeah, another thing that could be interesting that would kind of be a weird rift is if Katie and Rosie ended up having, Mm. So an issue.

Yeah. And then Wayne has to either Yeah, choose the woman he loves or his sister. Ooh. I mean, the way they could do that. Uh, unfortunately it's a, it's a trope. Yeah. The, you love t tropes would be a misunderstanding. Where Wayne, where Katie thinks maybe Rosie stepping out on Wayne, he's, she's not really Yeah. Of what you spin through with my friend and Yeah. Oh yeah. It's very, she sees her kinda thing, but, you know, it could maybe work. I don't know.

She sees her hanging out with another guy who's actually her, another cousin. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then Wayne's note about it all along, right. That would, it'd be like the nudes episode where, uh, like he walks in and sees them together and he's like, ready to fight, and she's like, have you met my cousin? Like, what, what is wrong? Why are you upset? Yeah. That, that would be interesting for sure. Yeah. Yeah. I, you know, they got so many things that they can do.

I, yeah, I do, I do often wonder, because we're, we are 11 seasons in, if, if he's, if there's an end in sight Yeah. That's in their mind. In the not to, in the, not, well not in the distant distant, but in the not too distant future, you know, like another three or four seasons maybe. They just, I kinda wonder. That would be sad. Yeah, it would be. Yeah. But, you know, there's, I mean, he, he's, he's had success with Shorey, which I know he loves.

Um, I, I do wonder if maybe he's got another spinoff in mind. Mm-hmm. Um, you know, I would, I would love to see, like I've always said, a Rez spinoff. Mm-hmm. Uh, with Tan more tanis is always good. So Yeah. And that could definitely link up with Shorey. Mm-hmm. Um, so yeah. Lots of good things that could happen. I mean, you know, I know he doesn't want, he definitely doesn't want to give up on letter Kenny until he's, I'm, I'm sure, I'm sure he has probably an end in sight.

He, I mean, I don't think he goes anywhere without a plan, so, well not, I mean, him giving up but also crave, I mean, letter Kenny is still, you know, craves flagship show. True. Maybe, you know, uh, they've added a lot of stuff to it, but in terms of crave original content mm-hmm. Uh, very little Beats Letter Kenny still, or, or Shorey now. So yeah, very true.

Kenny's pretty shocked if they not, not let him quit or end it, but be be like, Hey, come on, if you, you know, how about another season or two? It's, yeah, it's gonna end up being like supernatural, you know? I was just thinking that. I was like, this is the next supernatural where we keep getting spinoffs, but the main show just never dies. Well, they, they kept trying to spin off Supernatural and all of them failed.

Um, The one, whatever one is happening right now, apparently is doing pretty good though. But I haven't watched anything. Yeah. The, it's the prequel stuff. Yeah. Yeah. But yeah, I, I don't know if that's, is that still going on? Did we ever actually finish the super? We had, we had one season left, I think. Okay. That's a hard one to get back into when it's been so long. I'm probably gonna have to watch the last three just to remember, or more. That was a great show.

Yeah. We just went, went through that with Mrs. Maisel. When, when, when that season started, we're like, how did the last season end? Can you remember? And that was only like a year ago. So what, what are you watching now that's not letter Kenny related. Oh. Um, well, I mean, we, we, Mrs. Maisel, um, Barry's coming back soon. So looking forward to Barry. Uh, you like that one, right, Dean? Yeah. I Oh, it's a lot fun.

I, uh, yeah, I think I w where I was last year, when the, when the, is that the second season or third season came out? Last year? Um, I was just, I was not in a place to watch it. Yeah. Yeah. So, uh, cuz I know cuz of the, of Barry himself and my, where I was. So I knew I, it was not something I was ready to hand. Listen, watch at that moment, I, it's, and it's a fantastic show. It's so funny. Yeah. It's so, no, no whole Hank is one of my favorite characters on TV right now. He's so good.

I, I, you know, and, uh, Henry Winkler. Oh, I know. Brilliant. So, yeah, it's a great cast and I mean, I, yeah, I hear what you're saying. So hopefully you're in a spot to pick that up again cuz it's, uh, I'm looking for, and I think this might be the last season, so, uh, looking forward to seeing how they Yeah, I think I heard that. Yeah. Hmm. Uh, but yeah, I don't know. I'm not watching anything. Well, we just finished, uh, a poker face, which is a lot of fun. I wanna watch that.

That's like female Colombo. Uh, he's, she's great. She's so good, uh, in it. And, uh, yeah, that we enjoyed that one. Um, yeah, I can't think of uh, anything else right now, but yeah, we're back on Ted Lasso. Mm-hmm. Oh, of course. We have watched Ted Lasso the most up to date. We have not watched the last episode yet. Yeah. I haven't watched any, any of this season yet. Okay. Where I'm waiting for it to end so that we can get it. Cause uh, yeah, I don't wanna have to wait.

I had a friend that I hung out with yesterday who got mad at me cuz I said I hadn't watched the most recent. I'm like, I haven't watched it. Yeah. The last of us, which we finished. Yeah. It was amazing. Yeah. Uh, if you ever played the game, it was. No. Excellent. The game is no, but I mean, I, I've heard so many amazing things about it, so I'm so tempted just to watch it because I hear it's amazing, so Yeah. Yeah, it is. It's awesome.

Um, it's really heartfelt, uh, sticks true to as much of the game as it can. I mean, they could have had the o the only thing I would ding it for is not having enough zombie. Yeah. Or because he can't fight them every five minutes like you do in the video games. Right. I mean, so yeah, they had to tone it down just because of that, but they could have used more a little bit. There were, there were a couple episodes where it was like there was none.

Yeah. I'm becoming more, more and more of a fan of, uh, Pedro Pasco. Oh, yeah. Oh yeah. I just watched, don't watch Mandalorian personally, but like No, I, it wasn't even that. It was, uh, um, the Nicholas Cage. Yes, yes. Oh, I love that movie. Massive. So good. Massive, uh, massive weight. The unbearable weight of massive Italian. Yeah. There. Yeah. So funny. And Pedro Pascal, he steals every scene.

Yeah. He's, I was watching this thing the other day where it was, um, Nick Cage and Peter Pa Pascal were being interviewed and mm-hmm. Nick was just talking about his awe of Peter Pascal and he's just like, oh my God. Like, and you know, he's, he was talking about how he didn't have to act much in that sh in that movie because that was how he genuinely felt really getting to work with Nick Cage. Yeah. Like, I mean, Nick Cage is just being Nick Cage in that right cage.

Well, he's more Nick Cage than Nick. Yeah. A Nick Cage plus Nick Cage plus. Oh yeah. And I love, I am absolutely a Nick Cage fan. It does not matter how terrible the movie is. I will love it if he's in it. Yeah. Uh, you might appreciate this at work we have, uh, you know, these team groups, chat groups or whatever, uh, and one of them is a B movie club. Yes. And, and the biggest, uh, everyone in it is a huge fan of Nick Cage movies like The Cheesiest, the Be the Cheesier the better. Right?

They, they love anything Absolutely. That he puts out. He puts a hundred percent in every single movie he's in. It doesn't matter if it is the worst script in the world or if it's, you know, kick ass. Like yeah, he will put that same amount of effort into, so I'm street bad guys. Well, he can't, like, cuz the CGI is so bad. Oh yeah. I'm looking forward to that vampire one that, yeah, it's great field. Wanna watch that?

Manfield him and, and, uh, Nick Nicholas, is it Nick Holt or something like that? He holt something like that. Nicholas Holt. He is amazing. Uh, I, well, I mean, I, I recommend the great, if you don't mind a period comedy, uh, but it, it's, he's really good in that Nicholas Holt. Um, so, uh, if you like, uh, it's about the Russian, uh, Oliar, uh, like, uh, royalty or whatever, and he plays, um, okay. A Russian ruler and, and what's her name? Uh, I forget her name. El Fanning. Is it?

Yeah. Okay. I think that was the only thing I knew about it was El Fanning was in it. Yeah. That's why I'm looking it up. Oh. But he's in it. He plays a horrible, horrible character in it, but a hilariously horrible character in it. And, uh, anyway, so I became a big fan of him in that. So now seeing him with Nick Cage and, and Renfru is, Renfield is, um, yeah. I can't wait. Nice. Yeah, he was the, uh, he was the guy in warm bodies. That's what I remember him from.

Yeah. I, it was, it surprised me when I found out he was British. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, he is not British and warm bodies. He doesn't, no, he doesn't. Well, he is a zombie. He's just a zombie. He doesn't speak out. He doesn't have a lot. He talks in, it's the voiceover. Yeah. Oh. But yeah. No, I don't think he was British, but affects an American actor in that one and, you know, and then, and X-men. Yeah. He's a really great actor. He's got a huge, like, a great future in front of him.

And I think, uh, Yeah. Agreed. More people can see him. Yeah. Yeah. He, uh, I don't remember the first time I saw him. Um, wasn't warm bodies. No. It was something before that. Well, so this isn't the first movie he's been in with Nick Cage. Oh. Oh, that's probably, he played Nick Cage's, uh, son, I think in Weatherman or Yeah. Really? He was a child in that movie. Yeah. Um, because that was a while ago. Yep. So there you go. There's your fun fact about him. Cool. All right then.

Yeah. The only other thing I'm looking forward to, oh, he was about a boy, boy. He, the, the Hugh Grant movie about a boy. He was the boy. Yeah. He was about a boy, boy. He was about a boy, boy. I didn't know how else to say it, but I had a boy, boy. Such a boy. A good boy. Such a good boy. Such a boy. Oh man. Yeah. Yeah. The only thing, see, I'm looking for, there's a couple things that they're rapping or they're gonna be putting out this year.

I mean, the second season of reacher, I'm really looking forward to. Mm-hmm. Oh yeah. I'm looking forward to that too. Are they doing another peacemaker or not? I love. I hope so. That was fun. Well, with was such a huge hit, like I think the issue is right now, I mean, I, I think they want to, the issue is HBO O Max is now becoming Max, and that's who, and so no longer Warner Brothers now. It's owned by Discovery. So I, I don't know what the hell they're doing.

I'm pretty much gonna, you know, if, if I'm gonna watch it, I, it'll be a torrent thing, so. Yeah. Oh, they have to bring it back though. Cause that was brilliant. Oh, the dance. I love the fucking dance. Yeah, no, to watch that opening again. Yeah. So good. I mean, yeah. I, I had no, I idea that John Cena was, was gonna be that great at Yeah, yeah, yeah. I, yeah, a agreed, I thought I was gonna end up just, I mean, hating it or be bored and like, on my phone the whole time. But I loved it.

To be fair. To be fair, we did see him in, uh, psych a couple of times playing Jules's brother. True. I forgot about that. So, yeah. What is it about, uh, these summer wrestlers that they, they turn out to be really charismatic and really good, you know, character actors. He's acting, they've been acting for so long, just physically don't himself. Seriously. Right. Like the rock was, can't take themselves seriously.

Yeah. But the Rock seems to have, uh, made a bad name for himself as of, uh, black Adam. So made up. Would you? I don't know. Well, he's, he's, he's kind of, I think his comedy movies do better than his. Well, he, I, no, he, but he had some, he had some issues that he kind of made, oh. Instead of making it, you know, behind the scenes type of thing, he, he definitely went live about any issues he had.

Okay. Um, you know, but, so he didn't keep himself quiet when, when things were, so, like the, the plan was that the, there, hi, black Adams main enemy was Shazam and he wanted to be. Superman. Right, I remember that. So, um, and so he kind of forced that. Um, and so there was, there, yeah. So, okay. Yeah, that was the issue. And, and then because of that, it kind of fucked up the second Shazam movie. Uh, there was a whole bunch of crap with that. And so, yeah.

I think, uh, somebody ruined that movie. Well talking. Yeah. I think, yeah, I think there was a bit of both in there. Yeah. Okay. So still shocked not Jewish. I don't, it's so weird. Yeah. I, because I think were, I'm just shocked that he's a Joe Rogan fan. Well, that's too bad. Chuck was so great. We just did a rewatch not that long ago, and it was just so, it was still just a greatest show.

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I know he's, he keeps talking about, Getting the band back together and doing for Chuck. Yeah. Yeah. Really? Oh yeah. He, he wants to, he, he's been working on that for a long time, trying to get it happen again. I would watch that. I would watch. Yeah. I love Chuck. Chuck was so great. Yeah, so great. I mean, I'm just a big Sarah fan. It's all watching Yvon Husky. Oh, dead. Yeah. They could leave out Adam Baldwin out of it though. Yes, yes, yes.

He's a little, they're they're coming together for his funeral. How's that? That I'm all for that. Yeah. And they can bring, bring his daughter back. She's, yeah. But she's married to Morgan. Yeah. And, uh, Chuck is married to Sarah. Mm-hmm. And wait, he, at the end of the series, didn't he like, have memory wipe or was it her. I can't. Oh, oh yeah. It was her. I think it was her. Okay. So yeah, they're, they're like, yeah. He basically make her fall in love with her.

Uh, make her fall in love with him again. Yeah. I remember now. No, just get David Mack to write the script. Good. Yeah. David, get on that. Right? Maybe that's the thing we should do. Table reads of Chuck. Yeah. There's few char fewer characters Who's gonna, uh, who's gonna be Big Mike? Oh man. Oh, it would be Brian Tan. Oh, there you go. Oh, that's perfect. Yeah, that would be fun. Oh God, I just saw it. Oh boy. Yeah. No, not, not right now, please.
