FH Mini 53 - Prolific Pals
Transcript
[0:00]
Hey everyone, it's the Flophouse. I'm Dan McCoy.
Dan McCoy
[0:08]
I'm Stuart Wellington, just chomping on some watermelon.
[0:10]
Stuart was chewing. He delayed him.
Elliott Kalan
[0:13]
And I'm Elliot Kalin, not choosing to shove some food in my mouth at the moment I'm supposed to say my name.
[0:20]
Did I once stand there eating a bag of Doritos as Barack Obama got closer and closer to me, shaking hands down a line of people, only to realize at the last possible minute that I would have Dorito dust all over my hands?
[0:34]
Yes, but I don't put food in my mouth before I say my name on a podcast.
Stuart Wellington
[0:39]
Yeah, so everybody, this is my fucking employee review apparently.
[0:44]
Yeah.
[0:45]
I hope it's a fucking shit sandwich.
Elliott Kalan
[0:48]
So first, Stuart, you're in great shape. That's fantastic.
[0:52]
Thank you.
[0:52]
Criticism, you're shoving a lot of food in your mouth right before talking.
[0:56]
I'm so hungry.
[0:57]
And the final compliment is loving your array of shirts.
Dan McCoy
[1:04]
Stuart is, here's a little peek behind Flophouse curtain for listeners.
[1:11]
You may be wondering, you know, how does Stuart get so fit?
[1:15]
Every time I see Stuart, he is either shoveling fruit or nuts into his mouth at all times.
[1:24]
Like, I don't think he eats other foods.
[1:27]
Well, like many, I think like a squirrel, he has taken up.
[1:30]
Like many healthy people, he only eats healthy, non-filling food.
Elliott Kalan
[1:34]
So he needs a lot of it.
[1:35]
But eats them all the time.
[1:37]
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[1:37]
Constantly.
Stuart Wellington
[1:38]
Yeah.
[1:39]
My little teeths get a serious workout.
[1:42]
Let me tell you.
[1:45]
Teats.
Dan McCoy
[1:45]
Oh, God.
[1:46]
I was like, my little teats get a serious workout?
[1:49]
I don't know what you're doing with those fruits and nuts.
[1:51]
Dude, what the fuck is wrong with you?
[1:52]
I misheard you.
[1:53]
There's nothing wrong with me.
[1:55]
My ears are bad.
[1:56]
I guess my ears are wrong.
[1:57]
Don't think about the classic kid's toy line, my little teats.
[2:00]
That's a different thing.
[2:01]
So what do we do on this podcast?
[2:02]
Okay.
[2:04]
Primarily, this is a podcast where we watch a movie, one that has been a critical or commercial flop,
[2:10]
and then we talk about it.
[2:12]
But on the off weeks, every other week, we kind of go freestyle.
[2:15]
We do whatever we want.
[2:17]
And this is one of those Flophouse Minis, sponsored by Minis Bar, apparently.
[2:23]
And actually, it's spreading.
Stuart Wellington
[2:26]
Actually, this is different.
[2:27]
This is a Flophouse Manny, sponsored by Maniac of New York.
[2:31]
Oh, thank you.
Elliott Kalan
[2:32]
I appreciate that, Stuart.
[2:33]
Nice.
[2:34]
Maniac or Maniac, as it's also pronounced, of New York, on comic book store shelves now.
[2:38]
Volume 1, The Death Train on trade paperback.
[2:40]
And Volume 2, The Bronx is burning.
[2:41]
Issues only at the moment.
[2:43]
Will be collected someday.
Dan McCoy
[2:45]
So often with these Minis, we sort of trade around who's taking the wheel,
[2:52]
who's designing the Mini for that off week.
[2:56]
And it came up to be mine yet again.
[3:00]
And listeners, long-time listeners may know.
Elliott Kalan
[3:03]
You said it again as if you've been doing it more than anyone else.
[3:06]
No, no, no, not at all.
[3:08]
Much like the wheel of karma, this wheel of fate that is having to host Flophouse Minis,
[3:14]
it rotates constantly.
Dan McCoy
[3:16]
If anything, I haven't done it in too long because we had a lot of interesting other stuff
[3:24]
that was not necessarily any of us in the driver's seat.
[3:27]
We just got some good guests, whatnot, whatever.
[3:30]
You can listen to them.
[3:31]
They're on our feed.
[3:32]
Anyway.
[3:32]
Yeah, check it out.
[3:33]
But now that I'm in charge, Devious Game Master Dan has returned.
[3:41]
Oh, no.
[3:43]
Oh, no.
[3:44]
I have another game.
[3:45]
Oh, shit.
[3:46]
Okay.
[3:46]
McCoy saw.
[3:47]
It's going to play out in two rounds of eight questions each.
[3:54]
Don't worry.
[3:57]
I saw Elliot's look of alarm.
[3:59]
It probably shouldn't take that long.
[4:00]
Although, you know, take all the fun diversions you want to because that's why people listen
[4:05]
to this show.
[4:06]
I mean, that's the thing.
[4:07]
I'm factoring in the diversions.
[4:08]
This is going to be a long end, folks.
Elliott Kalan
[4:10]
At least it's not 12 rounds.
[4:12]
Check out our 12 rounds episode from years ago.
[4:14]
We probably said offensive things in it because we were young then.
[4:17]
Yeah, and dumb.
[4:18]
That's the only reason.
Stuart Wellington
[4:21]
We were young and dumb and full of something.
[4:24]
I don't remember what the...
Elliott Kalan
[4:25]
We were young, dumb, and full of gum that we'd swallow.
[4:28]
You're not supposed to do that.
[4:28]
It just stays in your stomach forever.
Dan McCoy
[4:30]
Yeah, it stays in your system forever.
[4:31]
It grows into a gum tree.
[4:35]
Yeah, so this is a game I devised.
[4:38]
Like I said, it has two rounds of eight questions.
[4:43]
I'll alternate who gets to answer first.
[4:47]
And is the thing that we're supposed to take turns guessing what the game is?
[4:52]
No, no, I will tell you that.
[4:53]
I'm just saying.
[4:54]
I'm doing this in unusual order where I tell the rules first and then I tell you what the
[5:00]
game is.
[5:02]
So I'll give you alternating chances at it and then the other person will have a
[5:08]
chance to steal if they get it wrong.
[5:10]
And it'll get a lot easier at that point as you'll see.
[5:14]
But the game is...
[5:16]
So there are very prolific artists out there in the world.
[5:22]
Many of them working in film and television.
Elliott Kalan
[5:26]
For instance, Dan, if I could bring up a real life story.
[5:30]
Today, my older son is doing a book report on Leonardo da Vinci and he wanted to find an
[5:35]
image of The Last Supper.
[5:36]
And so I looked up da Vinci paintings and in the ad space that came up above the search
[5:40]
results were posters of da Vinci paintings and then a poster of Scarlett Johansson.
[5:45]
And I was like, wow, Leonardo da Vinci is more prolific than I thought.
[5:48]
I didn't realize he painted any pictures of actresses from 500 years after he was alive.
Dan McCoy
[5:53]
It's amazing.
[5:54]
You know, some people just have the energy to do that kind of thing.
[5:57]
Here's one of them.
[5:59]
What?
Stuart Wellington
[5:59]
It was a game of Pictionary and his partner was Nostradamus.
[6:05]
And Nostradamus is feeding him clues.
Dan McCoy
[6:08]
There you go.
[6:08]
That makes sense.
[6:09]
That makes sense.
Elliott Kalan
[6:11]
So here's...
[6:12]
Nostradamus goes, I'm the star of Ghost in the Shell.
[6:16]
And da Vinci is like, the cartoon or the live action version?
Dan McCoy
[6:20]
Here is one very prolific artist.
[6:25]
No stranger to Flophouse Shores.
[6:28]
His name is Mr. Eric Roberts, who has 664 acting credits on IMDb.
[6:36]
Two away from Ultimate Evil.
[6:38]
Now, you might think that's amazing.
[6:41]
It's impossible to go bigger.
[6:43]
No, no, no, no, my friend.
[6:45]
Here's someone who has a lot of acting credits spread over the movies and television.
[6:51]
Mr. Frank Welker.
[6:52]
Uh-huh.
[6:53]
The voice actor, predominantly, although he, you know, sometimes he'll be himself on camera in a live action role.
[7:00]
But he has 872 acting credits on IMDb.
[7:07]
A lot of animal sounds Frank Welker does.
[7:09]
Yeah.
Elliott Kalan
[7:10]
Now, when you say as himself in an acting role, you don't mean playing Frank Welker in movies.
[7:14]
Like, the characters are like, we better stop off at Frank Welker's house for some advice.
Dan McCoy
[7:18]
I mean, you see Frank Welker's face, even though he's playing a different character.
[7:23]
You know, a live action.
[7:23]
I see.
Dan McCoy
[7:23]
I see.
[7:24]
It's how one traditionally would say that.
[7:26]
Yeah.
[7:27]
Now, I know that this is a movie podcast, primarily, but always for a third thing, you want to throw in a curveball.
[7:36]
James Patterson.
[7:38]
James Patterson, novelist, or shall I say, man who puts his name on a lot of books.
[7:46]
Whether or not he actually wrote them.
[7:49]
James Patterson has, quote unquote, written more than 200 novels.
Elliott Kalan
[7:55]
Or, I guess.
[7:56]
I can believe that.
[7:57]
I mean, like, Isaac Asimov wrote about two times as many books, but a lot of those were nonfiction also.
[8:02]
Yeah.
Dan McCoy
[8:03]
Well, that's, yeah, some of these are, like, I think that the.
Stuart Wellington
[8:08]
I like how you just nagged Isaac Asimov right there.
[8:11]
Mm-hmm.
[8:12]
I mean, they weren't all novels.
Elliott Kalan
[8:13]
Isaac and some of them were short story collections.
[8:15]
No, no, no.
[8:16]
Grandmaster of science fiction.
Dan McCoy
[8:18]
Well, I'm correcting myself because I think that the website that gave me this figure may not have understood the difference between a novel and a nonfiction book.
[8:26]
Because some of the titles that were listed were nonfiction books.
[8:30]
Oh, I see.
[8:31]
Okay.
Elliott Kalan
[8:31]
Now, James Patterson has his.
[8:32]
You should also mention, James Patterson's a very prolific commercial starer, if you're talking about actors mainly.
[8:37]
Love it.
[8:38]
He puts himself in his commercials and he is hilarious.
Stuart Wellington
[8:43]
They basically, it's like, he says, like, one word, looks at the camera, and then eventually he's like, I want to read this.
Elliott Kalan
[8:51]
I remember there was one for his book, Jack and Jill.
[8:53]
He did one where he goes, Jack and Jill.
[8:57]
Jack and Jill.
[8:59]
My new novel.
[9:00]
And it was like, what?
[9:01]
Perfect.
Dan McCoy
[9:03]
No, no.
[9:04]
He's using the head-on commercial style, where if you just say the thing, it'll get lodged in your brain.
[9:12]
So, of course, this game is, is this an Eric Roberts movie?
[9:17]
Is it a Frank Welker project?
[9:20]
You know, either movie or television show.
[9:23]
Okay.
Elliott Kalan
[9:23]
Very elevated if it's a project.
Dan McCoy
[9:25]
Or is it a James Patterson book?
[9:28]
Okay.
[9:29]
Eric Roberts movie, Frank Welker project, or James Patterson book.
[9:34]
And like I said, we'll, we're going to, you know, alternate who gets first crack at these.
[9:40]
Do you have a name for this game?
[9:41]
But if someone gets it wrong, they'll steal.
Elliott Kalan
[9:44]
I think it.
[9:45]
I think Roberts movie, Welker project, or Patterson book is a bit long as a name.
[9:49]
So let's come up with a new one.
Dan McCoy
[9:52]
The Prolific Pals.
[9:55]
Prolific Pals.
[9:56]
The game.
[9:57]
The game.
Elliott Kalan
[9:58]
Cool.
[9:59]
Yeah.
[10:00]
Okay.
[10:02]
That's also the, that's also the Disney plus animated show featuring Eric Roberts, Frank Welker,
[10:08]
and James Patterson solving problems around the neighborhood.
Stuart Wellington
[10:12]
So this.
[10:14]
It's a very similar personality team up from the, what the one where it was Bo Jackson, Michael Jordan,
[10:21]
Wade and Gretzky.
[10:22]
What was that?
[10:22]
The super athletes or whatever.
[10:24]
Something like that.
Elliott Kalan
[10:25]
Super all stars.
[10:26]
Yeah.
[10:26]
Yeah.
[10:27]
You know that.
[10:27]
You know that.
[10:28]
So Eric Roberts, he's kind of the, he's the Donatello.
[10:31]
He's all about machines.
[10:32]
He's very sciencey.
[10:33]
Frank Welker is of course the leader, very noble and disciplined.
[10:37]
And James Patterson is the, is the kind of dumb brute.
[10:40]
He's, he's the strength of the team.
[10:41]
Yeah.
[10:42]
And you know, he's not so bright, but he's got a lot of heart.
[10:44]
Anyway, that's the prolific pals.
Stuart Wellington
[10:48]
I'm buying you compared it to a team of four members.
[10:51]
Okay.
Elliott Kalan
[10:51]
Well, get me a party dude.
[10:54]
And we can, we can add it to the group.
Dan McCoy
[10:57]
I know I said that the digressions are the fun, but we're 12 minutes in and we haven't started
[11:01]
the game.
Elliott Kalan
[11:01]
I should mention James Patterson is not cool, but rude.
[11:04]
Yeah.
[11:04]
Okay.
[11:05]
He's cool and polite.
[11:06]
Don't want to get slandered.
[11:07]
Yeah.
[11:07]
That's why they call him James Politerson.
[11:09]
Anyway, Dan.
[11:10]
So prolific pals.
[11:11]
Are we going to play this game or what?
[11:13]
Yeah.
[11:13]
Yeah.
[11:13]
Yeah.
[11:13]
Yeah.
[11:13]
So this first one, Stu gets first crack at it.
Dan McCoy
[11:17]
Hell yeah.
Stuart Wellington
[11:17]
I have, I've stolen the initiative.
Dan McCoy
[11:20]
Yeah.
[11:21]
You just got to answer Roberts, Welker, Patterson.
[11:24]
Okay.
[11:25]
The title is Deadly Nightshade.
[11:31]
Roberts.
[11:32]
That is a point for Stuart.
[11:33]
Deadly Nightshade.
[11:35]
Eric Roberts played Father Walsh in that.
[11:39]
Okay.
[11:39]
Father Walsh.
[11:40]
Not even a priest.
[11:42]
Yeah.
[11:43]
I don't.
[11:43]
Nope.
[11:44]
I've never seen Deadly Nightshade.
[11:47]
Oh, by the way.
[11:48]
Certainly don't eat it.
[11:48]
You know, both of the, both Roberts and Welker certainly, and well, and Patterson actually,
[11:55]
have future.
[11:57]
Whatever this fact is, you're making it up as you go along, I can tell.
[12:00]
No, no, no, no.
[12:01]
All three of these people have future projects listed on the pages that I consulted.
[12:06]
Okay.
[12:06]
I will tell you, I did not use any future projects.
[12:08]
Oh, thank goodness.
[12:09]
That would not be playing fair.
[12:10]
Yeah.
[12:11]
Extant projects.
[12:13]
So, all right.
[12:14]
Elliot.
[12:16]
Oh, boy.
[12:17]
Your title is Fire Breather.
[12:22]
Fire Breather.
[12:23]
I'm going to say Frank Welker.
[12:25]
You got it, buddy.
[12:27]
Fire Breather.
[12:29]
Frank Welker plays dragon number one.
Elliott Kalan
[12:31]
I figured it was probably a dragon movie.
[12:34]
Frank Welker's We've Established plays animals.
Dan McCoy
[12:36]
Number one.
Elliott Kalan
[12:38]
So, not even a dragon with a name.
[12:40]
No, no, no.
[12:41]
It was probably Roars.
Stuart Wellington
[12:42]
There's no personality there.
[12:43]
How much of a dragon movie is this if the dragon doesn't have a name?
[12:48]
Well, we know there's at least more than one dragon in it.
[12:51]
I hope.
[12:51]
Yeah, so you would think that unless there's like, I mean, if there's character dragons,
[12:56]
would they just name another?
[12:58]
That would be like.
[12:58]
Oh, that's what I'm.
[12:59]
Yeah.
[13:00]
I think that they do.
[13:01]
You're like human number one.
Dan McCoy
[13:03]
Yeah.
[13:04]
Human number one.
[13:06]
The numbering system does not necessarily imply that there aren't more important dragons
[13:10]
in this movie.
[13:12]
Hey, if Frank Welker's playing it, then there are no more important dragons.
[13:14]
That's the thing.
[13:15]
It's true.
[13:17]
Okay, so.
Stuart Wellington
[13:18]
Well, the hero dragon's played by Chris Pratt, of course, doing his best Italian accent.
Elliott Kalan
[13:23]
Yeah, and who does the voice of the woman dragon that actually solves all the problems
[13:27]
but is not technically the hero?
[13:29]
Because Chris Pratt is technically the hero.
Stuart Wellington
[13:31]
Isabella Rossellini.
[13:33]
Oh, I want to see this movie now.
Dan McCoy
[13:36]
Isabella Waitressini.
[13:39]
That's a long ago reference.
Elliott Kalan
[13:43]
She's not in Waitress.
[13:44]
I don't know.
[13:45]
Anyway, we'll continue.
Dan McCoy
[13:46]
Stuart.
[13:47]
Stuart.
[13:47]
Yep.
[13:48]
You got the crack at this next one.
[13:51]
I'm riding high.
[13:52]
Yep.
Stuart Wellington
[13:52]
I've stolen a march on Elliot.
[13:54]
Okay.
[13:55]
The next title.
Dan McCoy
[13:55]
The game is tied right now.
[13:57]
The game is tied.
[13:58]
The next title is Private Paris.
[14:02]
Private Paris.
[14:04]
Oh, Private Paris.
[14:05]
Wait.
[14:05]
Say it again.
[14:06]
Private Paris.
[14:08]
I'm going to say Eric Roberts.
[14:11]
No, that's not correct.
[14:12]
Elliot, you have a chance to steal.
[14:14]
It gets easier now because there's only two options.
[14:17]
What is the second word in the title?
Elliott Kalan
[14:20]
Paris.
[14:20]
The capital of France.
[14:21]
Oh, I thought you were saying Paris.
[14:23]
And I was like, or parents.
[14:24]
Or parents.
[14:25]
And I couldn't quite tell.
[14:27]
Can we get a less Mushmouse Toast in for Living Pals?
[14:31]
I can't.
[14:32]
I am the only.
Dan McCoy
[14:33]
I mean, we could get Audrey in here, but I mean, we could.
[14:38]
You know?
[14:39]
That's true.
Elliott Kalan
[14:39]
We could retool the series.
[14:42]
No, you know what?
[14:43]
Probably in the middle of the pilot episode, we shouldn't start retooling.
[14:46]
In season seven.
[14:48]
Maybe at least let's finish the in-house demo.
[14:50]
Yeah.
[14:51]
So it's Private Paris.
[14:53]
I'm going to say that it's a James Patterson book.
Dan McCoy
[14:57]
Elliot, you're correct.
[14:58]
It is part of the Private Book Series, which is apparently a book series that James Patterson has.
Elliott Kalan
[15:03]
That better be a book series about sex clubs in different world cities.
[15:07]
Yeah.
[15:07]
P is for Private Book Series.
Stuart Wellington
[15:10]
That's Sue Grafton, Stuart.
[15:14]
The cat who ate the Private Book Series.
[15:16]
No, that's somebody else, so I don't remember who it is.
[15:20]
Oh, man.
[15:21]
I need an Anne McCaffrey name.
[15:23]
The Dragon Riders of Private.
[15:25]
Of Pern.
Dan McCoy
[15:28]
Okay.
[15:28]
Okay, so.
[15:31]
What is a Mary Higgins Clark title?
[15:34]
I can't think of any.
[15:35]
Oh, no.
[15:36]
That was a steal for Elliot.
[15:38]
So, Elliot, it's your turn again.
[15:41]
Okay.
[15:42]
Does that make sense to me?
[15:43]
I wouldn't argue against it.
[15:45]
So, Elliot, this title is Season of the Machete.
Elliott Kalan
[15:51]
Okay, Season of the Machete.
[15:53]
Yeah.
[15:53]
I'm going to say Eric Roberts for that one.
Dan McCoy
[15:55]
No, that's incorrect.
[15:56]
So, Stuart, what do you got?
Stuart Wellington
[16:00]
I'm going to say Patterson, baby.
[16:05]
Yeah, that's true.
Dan McCoy
[16:06]
It is a Patterson novel.
[16:08]
It's an early one from 1977.
Elliott Kalan
[16:11]
Okay, if I had known it was early, because it sounds stupid.
Dan McCoy
[16:14]
Yeah, that's classic Patterson.
[16:16]
You know, seminal work.
Elliott Kalan
[16:18]
That's before he discovered nursery rhymes.
[16:21]
Yeah.
[16:21]
Which was really a rich vein for him when it came to titles.
Stuart Wellington
[16:24]
Which is weird, because people normally discover nursery rhymes when they're a baby in a nursery.
Elliott Kalan
[16:29]
No, but he's a Benjamin Button, so he's living backwards.
Stuart Wellington
[16:32]
Oh, so when he was a baby, he was actually an old man, and he was listening to, I don't know, fucking Car Talk or something.
Elliott Kalan
[16:40]
You guessed it.
[16:41]
World War II, the radio channel.
[16:44]
Reading a lot of World War II books and Uncle John's bathroom readers.
[16:47]
Things like that.
Dan McCoy
[16:49]
I mean, two out of three of those things were things I enjoyed as a kid, so.
Elliott Kalan
[16:55]
I have such a strong memory of the day my dad gave up on collecting all the Uncle John's bathroom readers.
[17:01]
Yeah.
[17:01]
The day he was just like, there's too many of them.
[17:03]
I can't keep up.
[17:04]
Yeah, yeah.
[17:05]
He's defeated.
[17:06]
It's like me with EC Comics reprints.
Dan McCoy
[17:11]
You gave a good run at it, Dan, though.
[17:13]
You got a lot of those collections.
[17:14]
I did.
[17:14]
I tried for a while.
[17:16]
Okay.
[17:18]
Wait.
[17:18]
Who got the first crack?
[17:20]
Elliot last time.
[17:22]
This one's Stuart.
[17:23]
Stuart stole it.
[17:24]
Stuart.
[17:26]
Yeah.
[17:27]
Your title is Megaboah.
[17:32]
Megaboah.
Stuart Wellington
[17:34]
I'm going to say Eric Roberts.
Dan McCoy
[17:36]
That is Eric Roberts.
[17:38]
You got that one.
[17:39]
Yeah.
[17:40]
Or right.
Elliott Kalan
[17:40]
I feel like Frank Welker would have seen that title and said, not for me.
Dan McCoy
[17:44]
Dr. Malone was Eric Roberts' character.
Elliott Kalan
[17:48]
Dr. Malone?
[17:49]
Is he like some kind of gangster doctor?
[17:51]
Yeah.
Stuart Wellington
[17:53]
Yeah, they offered Frank Welker the role of boa number one, and he had to turn it down.
Elliott Kalan
[17:58]
He said, I'm taking star boa billing or nothing.
[18:02]
If I'm not the megaboah.
[18:06]
Elliot.
[18:07]
They said, sorry, we have Ian Ziering playing the megaboah.
[18:12]
It's Ian Ziering, but yeah.
[18:14]
We have Ayn Rand playing the megaboah.
[18:16]
Oh, wow.
Stuart Wellington
[18:18]
Not a choice.
[18:19]
Not known for her vocal work, but her political views, Dana agrees with.
Dan McCoy
[18:23]
All megaboahs should go to a valley somewhere.
[18:28]
Leaving regular boahs.
Elliott Kalan
[18:30]
It's hard for them to shrug because they don't have shoulders.
Dan McCoy
[18:33]
Okay, Elliot.
[18:34]
Your title is Codename Kids Next Door Operation Zero.
[18:42]
And if you want to know, it is Z period E period R period O period.
[18:49]
Codename Kids Next Door Operation Z-E-R-O.
[18:53]
Yeah, okay.
[18:55]
What other way to spell zero was there?
Elliott Kalan
[18:57]
Oh, you just not the name.
Dan McCoy
[18:58]
Well, I'm saying that they have their, it's an acronym of some kind.
[19:03]
Oh, that I didn't understand.
[19:04]
Well, what does it stand for?
[19:05]
Yeah, yeah.
Elliott Kalan
[19:06]
I don't know.
[19:08]
Well, do your research, I guess.
[19:09]
Anyway, I'm going to say Frank Welker for that one.
[19:11]
If it's James Patterson, I will lose my shirt.
Dan McCoy
[19:16]
Actually.
Elliott Kalan
[19:16]
Sorry, what did you guess?
[19:18]
I'm going to say Frank Welker, but it probably is Patterson because he does kids books.
[19:23]
What?
[19:24]
No, it is Frank Welker.
[19:26]
You got it.
Dan McCoy
[19:27]
Oh, okay.
[19:27]
He plays Monty Uno is his character name.
[19:31]
Monty Uno.
Elliott Kalan
[19:33]
So this movie was, it's just somebody was.
[19:35]
Air of the Pizzeria Uno fame.
[19:37]
Somebody just used a magnetic poetry kit to write this movie.
Dan McCoy
[19:40]
Now, Stuart.
[19:41]
Stuart, you're up.
[19:42]
Your title is Fat Girls, and that's fat with a PH and a Z at the end of girls.
Elliott Kalan
[19:53]
That must have been so annoying to the screenwriter.
Stuart Wellington
[19:55]
This is definitely a James Patterson.
Elliott Kalan
[19:57]
So annoying to James Patterson who was writing it that there was always red squiggles under
[20:02]
both of the title words.
[20:03]
The spell check wouldn't recognize it.
[20:05]
That drove him insane.
Stuart Wellington
[20:06]
Yeah.
[20:09]
It's not James Patterson.
[20:10]
If it's James Patterson, I will do a flip take and you guys will see it and you'll have
[20:17]
to tell people about it because we're not recording this, but nobody will believe you.
Elliott Kalan
[20:20]
We just saw Stuart's feet falling out of the panel.
Dan McCoy
[20:23]
Falling out of the Zoom.
[20:24]
I mean, like this is, honestly, if you're going to do a flip take, this is your chance.
[20:28]
In the world of Zoom, you can literally flip up so that your feet are all that can be seen
[20:33]
in the quote unquote panel that you live in.
Elliott Kalan
[20:36]
I want to see a Bazooka Joe comic where Bazooka Joe says something silly on Zoom.
[20:41]
And then in the last one, the unlucky recipient of this goof falls in.
[20:48]
It does a flip take.
Stuart Wellington
[20:49]
The problem with that strip for me is that would indicate that those strips are taking place
[20:54]
in the modern times, which means somebody is still making them.
[20:58]
Like every time I see a Bazooka Joe comic, I look at it like it's some kind of artifact.
Elliott Kalan
[21:03]
Well, that's kind of like the current Nancy comic, which is really good.
[21:07]
The current Nancy comic strip is really funny, but it takes place now.
[21:10]
So anytime Nancy is on a computer, but she's dressed the same that she's been dressing for
[21:14]
80 years, I'm like, what's going on, Nancy?
[21:18]
It is a very funny comic.
Stuart Wellington
[21:20]
I'm going to say Eric Roberts again.
Dan McCoy
[21:23]
You are correct.
[21:24]
That is Eric Roberts who starred in Fat Girls.
[21:29]
He played Robert.
[21:31]
He was excited about it.
[21:32]
He didn't even know it was a movie.
[21:34]
Yeah.
[21:36]
This is, hey, this is the time where we're going to do some ads.
[21:42]
That's how it goes.
[21:43]
I think it's a tie game still, right, Dan?
[21:45]
At least announce the score before the break.
[21:47]
No, that's true.
[21:48]
I should, to increase excitement, note that—
Elliott Kalan
[21:53]
Maybe I'm just using the lessons I learned as host of the Who Was podcast, a kid's quiz
[21:57]
show podcast about history, available through iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts.
[22:02]
But that's, you know, you just announced the score before break.
Dan McCoy
[22:04]
Wait, that was actually a seven question round.
[22:12]
Why did I think it was an eight question round?
[22:15]
That was seven questions.
[22:17]
I'm sorry.
Elliott Kalan
[22:19]
This is what happens when Grandpa runs the game show.
Dan McCoy
[22:23]
I'm sorry.
[22:24]
I'm looking at now.
[22:25]
I have a, you know, I have the spreadsheet.
[22:27]
Stewart has actually won ahead because it was an uneven round.
[22:32]
I'm going to move the—
[22:34]
Wait, hold on.
[22:34]
Let me count the rest of the questions because this may be a problem with the design of the game.
[22:40]
Seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen.
Stuart Wellington
[22:44]
What I love is that Dan is intentionally confounding the people who are hitting the skip button when they heard him say sponsors.
Elliott Kalan
[22:52]
They're missing this great content.
[22:55]
They're missing this prime entertainment.
[23:01]
This is an uneven number of rounds.
Dan McCoy
[23:04]
This is an uneven number of rounds.
Elliott Kalan
[23:08]
So you're saying the flaw was always in the system, that you gave the policeman all the clues.
Dan McCoy
[23:14]
I can't believe I did this.
[23:15]
I don't know how I made this mistake.
[23:18]
I think it's because I added—
[23:19]
All right.
[23:22]
Well, okay.
[23:22]
What?
[23:23]
We're going to have an uneven number.
[23:27]
Seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen.
[23:31]
Okay.
[23:32]
Here's what you should do, Dan.
Elliott Kalan
[23:33]
Here's what you should do.
[23:34]
Here's—
[23:34]
Lop off that last question you have planned and make that a tiebreaker in case you need it.
Dan McCoy
[23:38]
No, no.
[23:39]
Yes.
[23:40]
I've done it already.
[23:41]
There's an even number.
[23:43]
Of rounds now.
[23:47]
I just now—
[23:48]
It'll be an uneven number.
Elliott Kalan
[23:52]
Now I don't trust the amount of their titles that you counted.
[23:57]
Oh, boy.
[23:58]
I can't trust any of your facts.
Dan McCoy
[24:01]
You know what?
[24:02]
This is a podcast that is popular for some reason.
[24:09]
And I'm going to just move on to the ads and then we'll return back to the game.
[24:13]
After the ads are done.
[24:15]
Okay.
[24:16]
And we can all trust that it's all been done for the best.
Elliott Kalan
[24:21]
Oh, no.
[24:22]
That trust is gone.
[24:24]
It's eroded, yeah.
Dan McCoy
[24:28]
Kitty Poo Club.
[24:31]
Are you a proud cat person?
[24:33]
Yep.
[24:34]
You love your cat, but that doesn't mean you love having a litter box in your home.
[24:38]
Why would you?
[24:39]
It's a box where a cat doesn't eat.
[24:42]
Like, there's wonderful things about having a cat.
[24:44]
Good question.
[24:46]
There's so many good things about having a cat.
[24:49]
Do you want to get real with everybody for a minute?
[24:52]
No, I'm saying that is the top number one bad thing about having a cat.
[24:57]
A box of cat waste in your home.
[25:00]
Well, Kitty Poo Club.
[25:02]
Yep.
[25:03]
It's not great.
[25:05]
It's not a plus.
[25:06]
No one gets a cat for that experience.
[25:08]
If we were in the family feud, it would be, show me the litter box.
[25:13]
When people were saying, what's bad about having a cat?
Elliott Kalan
[25:18]
And number two would probably be the psychological mind games of having an animal who treats you like an employee.
[25:24]
Yeah.
Dan McCoy
[25:26]
Kitty Poo Club takes care of the more unpleasant parts of cat ownership so you can get back to loving your furry friends.
[25:34]
You don't want to be angry at your cat for peeing in your home.
[25:38]
You want to minimize the pee dealing with that you have to do.
[25:43]
And so that's what Kitty Poo Club is best at.
[25:46]
Every month, Kitty Poo Club delivers an affordable and recyclable litter box that is pre-filled with the litter of your choice.
[25:54]
When the month is up, you just recycle the used litter box and Kitty Poo Club will automatically deliver a new one to you.
[26:01]
And you can easily customize your subscription at any time.
[26:05]
You can add toys, treats, accessories, whatever will make you and your kitty happy.
[26:09]
I will say, as a man who does not have actual children, it is fun to buy a cat a thing.
[26:19]
And right now, Kitty Poo Club is offering an awesome discount on your first litter order and free shipping when you set up an auto ship.
[26:27]

Stuart Wellington
[26:44]
Elliot, have you ever heard of microdosing?
Elliott Kalan
[26:47]
No, I haven't.
[26:48]
Please tell me about it.
Stuart Wellington
[26:49]
Okay.
[26:50]
Well, it's a thing you may have heard about around the internet, including on this podcast, because today's show is sponsored by microdose gummies.
[26:58]
That's right.
[26:59]
Microdose gummies deliver perfect entry-level doses of THC that help you, the listener, feel just the right amount of good.
[27:08]
Now, I have been using microdose gummies on and off, mainly at night, and it helps chill me out and helps me wind down after a day of staring at my phone and working at my bar or podcasting with these two very professional dudes.
Dan McCoy
[27:29]
Semi-professional, let's say.
Stuart Wellington
[27:31]
And it's a good way for me to kind of relax as opposed to, you know, getting super high or something.
[27:39]
And I find that it helps me sleep and yada, yada, yada.
[27:44]
It's great.
[27:47]
I'm curious about what that yada, yada, yada is that it helps you do.
[27:51]
Yeah, would you alight there?
[27:54]
Yeah, I mean, it helps me be creative in podcasts.
[27:57]
It helps me not have terrifying dreams where my small business is going underwater, you know, those sorts of things.
Elliott Kalan
[28:05]
Really, really helps you power through all the nuts and fruit you're constantly eating.
Stuart Wellington
[28:09]
Yeah.
[28:10]
I mean, I can't attest to whether or not it helps me with my digestive processes, but I guess that's what all the nuts and fruit are for.
[28:19]
Microdose gummies are available nationwide.
[28:21]
You can learn more about microdosing THC by doing a search online or by going to microdose.com.
[28:29]
And you can use the code FLOP, F-L-O-P, to get free shipping and 30% off your first order.
[28:36]
So check it out again.
[28:38]
That's microdose.com, code FLOP.
S4
[28:46]
Max Fun Drive is just around the corner.
[28:49]
2022.
[28:50]
Starting April 25th, it's the best time of the year to support your favorite shows by becoming a MaxFun member or upgrading your membership.
Dan McCoy
[28:58]
Just two weeks.
S4
[28:59]
We've got some great episodes and amazing thank you gifts in store.
[29:03]
And who knows, maybe a few surprises.
Elliott Kalan
[29:06]
Don't forget bonus content.
S4
[29:09]
So make sure to tune in starting Monday, April 25th to get all the juicy details on what each show has in store.
Elliott Kalan
[29:15]
Actually, wait, what are the details anyway?
[29:19]
And why are they juicy?
[29:21]
That's kind of a strange adjective to describe details.
S5
[29:29]
Look, it's a rough world out there, especially lately.
[29:33]
I get it.
[29:34]
So let's take care of our minds as best we can.
[29:37]
I'm John Moe, host of Depresh Mode with John Moe.
[29:40]
Every week, I talk with comedians, actors, writers, musicians, doctors, therapists, and everyday folks about the obstacles that our world and our brains throw in front of us.
[29:50]
Depression, anxiety, traumatic stress.
[29:53]
All those mental health challenges that are way more common and more treatable than you might think.
Elliott Kalan
[29:58]
The first time I went to therapy, I was so ashamed.
[30:00]
And I was like, I can't believe I got to go into therapy.
[30:02]
Like, I thought I could be a man.
[30:03]
And Humphrey Bogart was never in therapy.
[30:05]
And then my dad said, yeah, but he smoked a carton of cigarettes a day.
S5
[30:10]
Give your mind a break.
[30:11]
Give yourself a break.
[30:12]
And join me for Depresh Mode with John Moe.
Dan McCoy
[30:16]
All right, so coming back from the break, if you will recall, Stuart has four to Elliot's three because of my miscounting, which just means that, you know, like a Broadway show, we'll have a slightly shorter second half.
[30:31]
And if you tie up, I'll have a tiebreaker.
[30:36]
Okay, that sounds good.
[30:38]
So what do we got here?
[30:40]
Who?
Elliott Kalan
[30:41]
It was Stuart last time.
[30:41]
Some would say it's a little unfair if Stuart got to answer more questions than me in the first round.
[30:45]
But, you know, it's not a real game, so who cares?
Stuart Wellington
[30:47]
It's not like the questions get harder in the next round.
[30:50]
The overall number.
[30:51]
Like they add a fourth person.
[30:54]
Yeah.
[30:55]
Or James Hong or somebody.
[30:57]
Like who?
Dan McCoy
[31:00]
All right, so Elliot, your first question for the second round, this first title, is How I Survived Bullies, Broccoli, and Snake Hill.
[31:11]
Now, I happen to know that's a James Patterson title.
[31:14]
Oh, Elliot bringing actual knowledge into the game for the first time.
Stuart Wellington
[31:19]
Elliot's optioned, tried to option it for a screenplay.
Elliott Kalan
[31:22]
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
[31:23]
Yeah.
[31:23]
Let's just say I've spent a fair amount of time in the children's section of bookstores.
[31:27]
Yeah.
[31:28]
Okay, well, yeah, that is correct.
[31:29]
And let's not go further than that.
[31:31]
That is a James Patterson book.
[31:35]
Stuart.
[31:36]
Here's the thing with James Patterson.
[31:37]
He was like, hmm, I'm a pretty mediocre writer of adult fiction.
[31:41]
I bet I could write some pretty mediocre kids' fiction too.
Stuart Wellington
[31:44]
You don't think he was like, oh, man, I'm going to crush these kids.
Elliott Kalan
[31:48]
You got to diversify.
[31:49]
Kids are never going to know what hit.
[31:50]
What are they busy reading?
Stuart Wellington
[31:52]
They're like, James, you know children aren't writing those books, right?
Elliott Kalan
[31:57]
It's like, I'm going to be a totally good writer compared to them.
[32:00]
They're kids.
[32:00]
I'm a grown up.
[32:01]
I know all the words.
[32:02]
Children's literature written by children.
[32:03]
Yeah.
[32:03]
And then he picks it.
[32:04]
He goes like, what's this?
[32:05]
What's a Terabithia anyway?
[32:07]
And he picks up Bridge to Terabithia.
[32:08]
And by the end, he's just sobbing.
[32:09]
And he's like, I was wrong.
[32:10]
These kids are amazing.
[32:13]
He says, I didn't think it was going to end that way.
[32:15]
It's so sad, but beautiful.
Stuart Wellington
[32:17]
Yeah, he's annihilated at that point.
Elliott Kalan
[32:19]
I still don't know what a Terabithia is.
Dan McCoy
[32:23]
Stuart, your title is The Legend of Sasquatch.
[32:31]
Whose is this?
[32:34]
The Legend of Sasquatch.
Elliott Kalan
[32:35]
I love, Dan, that you keep saying your title is, and I keep expecting you to give us titles
[32:39]
like champion or like president.
Dan McCoy
[32:42]
Your title is Baron of The Legend of Sasquatch.
Stuart Wellington
[32:45]
Oh, wow.
[32:47]
Oh, man.
[32:48]
I thought I was only a baronet.
[32:50]
I will say, I'm going to say this is Frank Welker.
[32:55]
But this is a guess, because this could be any of these three.
Dan McCoy
[32:58]
You know what?
[32:59]
You're right.
[33:00]
That is Frank Welker.
[33:01]
He played baby Sasquatch in that project.
Elliott Kalan
[33:05]
I want to believe it wasn't just the voice that he did the body to.
[33:11]
Or maybe baby Sasquatch is a rapper that goes looking for the real Sasquatch in the movie.
[33:16]
Maybe it's a human character.
[33:17]
Yeah.
[33:18]
Yeah.
[33:20]
That's a good rap name, baby Sasquatch.
Dan McCoy
[33:23]
Free for your use if you're out there looking for a name.
Stuart Wellington
[33:27]
Wow.
[33:27]
Yeah.
[33:28]
Dan immediately erases your trademark there, Elliot.
[33:31]
Yeah.
[33:31]
It's all right.
[33:32]
Thanks.
Dan McCoy
[33:33]
Thanks, Dan.
[33:34]
It's a Creative Commons rap name.
Elliott Kalan
[33:37]
Thanks for being the distributor that didn't put a copyright on Night of the Living Dead, cheating George Romero out of millions.
[33:43]
Can you imagine?
[33:45]
Could you imagine?
[33:46]
It's crazy that you forgot.
[33:47]
It's also crazy that there was a period in copyright law where you had to put a copyright notice on a movie or else it was instantly public domain.
[33:53]
That's nuts.
[33:54]
Yeah, yeah.
[33:55]
That is bad law writing right there.
[33:56]
They didn't put it on here.
[33:58]
I guess they wanted it to be for everybody.
[34:00]
I assume they meant for other people to just have instant access to this movie they put their time and effort into.
Stuart Wellington
[34:05]
It's like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
[34:07]
You want to ask him?
[34:08]
No, no, no.
[34:10]
It'll be awkward.
[34:11]
It'll be uncomfortable.
[34:12]
It'll be like calling out their charity.
Dan McCoy
[34:17]
So, Elliot, you got a title to answer for?
[34:23]
Well, you don't have to answer for it.
[34:25]
You want me to provide one?
[34:26]
No, no, no.
Stuart Wellington
[34:27]
That's what it sounded like.
[34:29]
It's kind of like you want to beat it.
[34:30]
This game's getting intense.
Elliott Kalan
[34:32]
I got one for you.
[34:34]
Like, I'm going to tell you a person and you name a title maybe they were in.
[34:37]
Wow.
Dan McCoy
[34:39]
Here's one for you, and it is Geppetto's Secret.
[34:44]
Ooh, Geppetto's Secret.
[34:45]
I know that shit.
Elliott Kalan
[34:46]
You know what?
[34:47]
I'm going to say Frank Welker again for this one.
Dan McCoy
[34:50]
No, it's not Frank Welker.
Stuart Wellington
[34:52]
So, Stuart.
[34:53]
I'm going to steal that shit because I know that's Eric Roberts, baby.
Dan McCoy
[34:57]
That is Eric Roberts.
[34:59]
He plays the character Jack Hammer in Geppetto's Secret.
[35:04]
Oh, it's a porn movie.
[35:05]
I didn't realize that.
[35:06]
Oh, then I would have said Eric Roberts.
Stuart Wellington
[35:08]
I mean, it sounds like he's basically playing the same character that he plays in Righteous Gemstones, a criminal wrestling promoter.
[35:16]
So, is that Geppetto's Secret?
[35:18]
Mm-hmm.
[35:20]
Yeah.
[35:21]
Stuart.
[35:22]
That he was in porn.
Elliott Kalan
[35:27]
Stuart, you're up again already.
[35:30]
Oh, wow.
[35:30]
I think Stuart's going to win this one.
[35:32]
Well, with stealing that from me and then also getting more questions in the first one.
Dan McCoy
[35:35]
Jesus Christ.
[35:36]
What are you, my dad?
[35:37]
Calm down.
[35:38]
Overall, you get the same number of questions.
[35:41]
But it's just a matter of discounting.
[35:44]
Okay.
Stuart Wellington
[35:45]
You would look, by the way, LA, you would look amazing in overalls.
Elliott Kalan
[35:48]
Thank you.
[35:49]
I'd look like a big kid, which would be great.
[35:51]
You'd look like Chucky.
[35:53]
I mean, if I –
[35:53]
Wow.
[35:55]
I mean, I would basically look like middle-aged Chucky.
[35:58]
Sure, yeah.
[36:01]
Stuart, your title –
[36:03]
If you put me in overalls and a baseball cap, I would look like a kid going undercover as an adult.
[36:11]
Yeah.
Dan McCoy
[36:17]
And doing a bad job.
[36:19]
Why didn't you get in your clothes?
[36:20]
No, why didn't they dress like a kid?
[36:22]
Yeah.
[36:24]
Stuart, your title –
[36:26]
Your title is The Murder of King Tut.
[36:31]
Oh, fuck.
[36:32]
The Murder of King Tut.
Stuart Wellington
[36:37]
What a range these three people have.
[36:41]
I want to say James Patterson.
[36:44]
That is James Patterson.
Elliott Kalan
[36:46]
Oh, shit.
[36:48]
Who else would have the balls to take on that subject?
[36:54]
Now, Elliot, this next one, I feel –
[36:57]
Now, I assume he –
[36:58]
I assume it was a –
[36:59]
That's a –
[37:00]
He had to meet with Anubis in like a dark parking garage to get the inside information on who killed King Tut.
[37:08]
Listen, listen.
[37:09]
You didn't get this from me, but it's his heart.
[37:11]
I weighed it against a feather.
[37:14]
See where it takes you.
[37:16]
Well, wait.
[37:17]
Who's the murderer in that case?
[37:20]
Is it the feather?
[37:21]
Hey, I don't want to get involved.
[37:23]
Yeah, because usually what happens is –
[37:25]
No, no.
[37:27]
It's some other Egyptian guy, you know.
Dan McCoy
[37:30]
Okay.
[37:30]
Okay.
[37:31]
Okay.
[37:31]
Elliot, this one could go –
Elliott Kalan
[37:32]
Probably Apocalypse.
[37:33]
I don't know.
[37:33]
And Sabanur.
[37:34]
Yeah.
Dan McCoy
[37:35]
This one could go a couple different ways.
[37:37]
Probably not a third way, but a couple different.
Stuart Wellington
[37:38]
Elliot just exhausted his knowledge of Egyptian characters.
Elliott Kalan
[37:41]
It's like, what do I know about Egypt?
[37:43]
King Tut, the oldest mutant apocalypse.
[37:47]
That's about it.
Dan McCoy
[37:49]
Imho Tut from the Mummy series.
[37:51]
Oh, yeah.
[37:51]
Right, right.
[37:52]
Elliot, your title is New York Minute.
[37:57]
Who of these people are responsible?
[38:00]
I'm going to say Eric Roberts.
[38:02]
That is incorrect, Stuart.
[38:04]
You have a steal.
[38:05]
It's Frank Welker.
[38:06]
Frank Welker is in New York Minute.
[38:09]
He's credited as Reynaldo Vocal Effects.
Elliott Kalan
[38:16]
Oh, man.
[38:16]
There's no coming back for me on this game.
[38:18]
Stu's just too good.
[38:19]
He just knows these three people too well.
[38:22]
Yeah.
Dan McCoy
[38:23]
Well, Stuart, you got one more chance.
[38:27]
Stuart.
[38:28]
You got one more chance to just –
[38:30]
That's not his series.
Elliott Kalan
[38:34]
He doesn't do those.
Dan McCoy
[38:39]
Eric Roberts doesn't do those.
[38:39]
It's also like not even a boast.
[38:43]
It's just true.
[38:46]
All right, Stuart.
[38:47]
Bring us on home.
[38:50]
The final title is Head Full of Honey.
[38:55]
Head Full of Honey.
Elliott Kalan
[39:01]
Head Full of Honey, the clear plastic bear story.
Stuart Wellington
[39:05]
So Eric Roberts is naturally sweet.
[39:09]
Frank Welker reminds me of a beautiful bear.
[39:13]
Yeah.
[39:14]
And James Patterson is full of good stuff.
[39:17]
I want you to get this so badly, Stuart, because I don't want to have to answer it.
Dan McCoy
[39:22]
I'm going to say Eric Roberts.
[39:24]
It is Eric Roberts.
[39:25]
He played Dr. Holst in Head Full of Honey.
[39:30]
So that's one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, Stuart.
[39:36]
Wow.
[39:37]
To four Elliot.
[39:39]
Fuck.
[39:40]
It's a blowout.
Elliott Kalan
[39:42]
Wait a minute.
[39:42]
Dan, you said two rounds of eight questions.
Dan McCoy
[39:45]
I know.
[39:47]
I don't know.
[39:48]
You're so far off.
[39:49]
Don't hold me to anything.
[39:50]
You only asked, well.
[39:52]
How many?
Elliott Kalan
[39:53]
You asked 12 questions.
Dan McCoy
[39:54]
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
[39:59]
How many did he have?
[40:00]
11, 12, 13, 14.
[40:01]
Wait, how many points did Stuart have?
[40:03]
Oh, no, he had 10 points.
[40:04]
No, 13.
[40:05]
13 rounds.
[40:06]
He did 13 rounds.
[40:08]
That's not even lucky number.
[40:11]
How did I do this?
[40:15]
Remember me not as a person who counts things, but as a game master.
Elliott Kalan
[40:21]
I mean, the master qualification is a little tentative here.
Dan McCoy
[40:27]
Questionable.
Elliott Kalan
[40:29]
So, anyway.
[40:31]
Proibic pals, I did it.
[40:32]
Now I know that I want to do a game that's just for Dan on the next mini that's called How Much of This Is There?
[40:40]
And you've just got to get within two to win.
[40:44]
Okay, Dan, what's the next part of Proibic Pals?
[40:47]
The next part.
Dan McCoy
[40:49]
You know, you stand on the top of the thing while the Mario Kart music plays.
[40:55]
Okay.
[40:56]
And I say the end of the show stuff, which is, if you have a moment, listeners, if you like this nonsense, go to iTunes.
[41:05]
Leave us a review.
[41:06]
Try to leave out the parts where I couldn't count.
[41:09]
You know what?
[41:10]
I think your counting makes sense at the end.
Elliott Kalan
[41:12]
Because you left one question reserved for a tiebreaker.
[41:15]
Yeah.
[41:15]
We didn't need it, right?
Dan McCoy
[41:16]
I did.
[41:16]
So, you know what?
[41:17]
You only miscounted once.

Thank you to Alex Smith, our producer, who is at HowellDotty on Twitter.
[42:21]
You can probably figure out how HowellDotty is spelled.
[42:24]
Just imagine it and type it out.
[42:26]
Yeah, yeah.
[42:27]
Not at all.
[42:28]
Close your eyes.
[42:30]
Your fingers will do the walking.
Elliott Kalan
[42:31]
It's not spelled like the word Howell at all.
Dan McCoy
[42:39]
Okay, How.
[42:40]
The word How.
[42:42]
Oh, wait.
[42:43]
How about this?
[42:44]
Ho, as in ho, ho, ho.
[42:46]
Well, as in I'm doing well.
[42:50]
Dawdy.
[42:51]
Are you?
[42:51]
As in Dawdy isn't a word.
[42:57]
Anyway, thank you for listening.
[43:00]
Until next time, I've been Dan McCoy.
Stuart Wellington
