The Flop House: Episode #78 - Gooby

Dan McCoy

[0:00] In this episode, we discuss the terrifying tale of one boy's descent into madness.

[0:06] We talk about Gooby.

S1

[0:30] Gooby.

Dan McCoy

[1:00] Tell us exactly why he wasn't available.

[1:02] Just to say he was busy.

Stuart Wellington

[1:04] Mysterious.

[1:05] Secret daily show business, I'm sure.

Dan McCoy

[1:08] Probably spying on the Colbert Report.

[1:12] Okay.

[1:12] Probably going in undercover.

S1

[1:14] That's a principal competition?

[1:15] Yeah.

[1:16] They spy on the Colbert Report to use their material in the daily show.

[1:20] Yeah.

[1:21] It's weird.

Dan McCoy

[1:21] They really shouldn't fight each other because they're sister shows on the same network.

[1:26] It's kind of a synergy between them.

[1:29] Like Sister Sister, Nickelodeon program.

[1:32] And That's So Raven.

[1:34] Yeah.

[1:35] Shows about sisters.

[1:36] Oh, okay.

[1:38] So, Andy.

[1:38] Yes, sir.

[1:39] Tell us a little bit about yourself.

S1

[1:41] My name's Andy Rocco.

[1:43] I'm a big fan of the show, first of all.

[1:46] Thank you.

Stuart Wellington

[1:47] So, this must be a dream come true.

S1

[1:50] I've said that so many times.

[1:51] Yeah.

Stuart Wellington

[1:52] Like, you feel like you're in a dreamscape.

[1:54] Yeah.

[1:55] Yeah.

[1:55] Or a nightmare.

[1:57] Yeah.

S1

[1:58] A frightmare?

[1:59] Yeah.

[1:59] Sure.

[2:01] Definitely a frightmare.

[2:03] And I have a show at the ECB.

[2:06] I do it.

Dan McCoy

[2:07] That's the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater here in New York City.

[2:09] The original.

[2:10] Yes.

S1

[2:11] Not the Los Angeles one.

Dan McCoy

[2:12] Right.

S1

[2:13] Don't confuse it with DLA.

[2:15] I have a show that I do the first Saturday of the month called Underground Americana.

[2:20] It's a variety show of sorts.

[2:23] I have guests that are musical and comedians and sketch and stuff like that.

[2:28] And I like to eat.

[2:32] Okay.

[2:33] That's probably why we invited you.

[2:34] Yeah.

[2:35] This is a culinary podcast, first and foremost.

[2:37] According to your logo banner, there's this implied that there's going to be cheese doodles here, but there is no cheese doodles here.

[2:45] I do.

Dan McCoy

[2:45] Look, I provided corn chips.

S1

[2:47] No, I know.

[2:48] I'm happy to get corn chips, but I had this impression of cheese doodles.

[2:52] He was starving himself all week, not eating any cheese doodles.

[2:56] Yeah.

Stuart Wellington

[2:56] He was going to get his entire dairy and doodle intake.

[3:00] Yeah.

[3:01] Tonight.

[3:02] I apologize for that.

[3:03] No, it's okay.

Dan McCoy

[3:04] Where's the doodle on the food pyramids, George?

Stuart Wellington

[3:06] It's right in the bottom.

[3:08] Really?

[3:08] It's the foundation.

[3:09] So you've got to get a lot of doodles.

S1

[3:11] You've got to get a lot of puff cheese.

Stuart Wellington

[3:13] Yeah.

[3:14] All right.

[3:15] This makes up a balanced breakfast.

[3:19] Yeah.

[3:19] Maybe.

Dan McCoy

[3:20] Well, if you enjoy comedy and staying up late, you should certainly go see Andy's show.

[3:25] Yes.

[3:25] Which I've only seen the one time when I actually appeared on it along with the other Flophousers.

[3:31] Yeah.

[3:31] I'm an old man.

[3:33] Yes.

[3:33] Yeah.

Stuart Wellington

[3:33] Flophouse super fans.

[3:35] Check back through the archives and there was actual video footage of it.

[3:39] Yeah?

[3:39] Yeah.

S1

[3:40] Right?

[3:41] Yeah.

[3:41] I was doing a really...

[3:43] You guys were really funny and I remember doing a really bad interviewing job.

[3:48] But I...

[3:49] Yeah.

[3:49] I loved having you guys on.

[3:51] Well, I should have you on again.

[3:53] Yeah.

[3:53] I'd stay up for that.

[3:54] Yeah.

Stuart Wellington

[3:55] Right in.

[3:56] I'll take a night off of work.

[3:58] You probably won't.

[3:59] I probably won't take a night off work.

[4:00] You need the money.

[4:02] Maybe we could do like a thing where we use a webcam.

[4:06] Like a remote?

[4:06] Yeah.

[4:07] A remote for your job.

[4:08] Webcam.

[4:09] Right.

S1

[4:09] Or we could do a big like cardboard cutout of you that we drag on.

[4:15] Sure.

[4:15] You got to do your job though.

[4:17] I mean, those glory holes need to be filled.

[4:19] Yeah.

[4:19] Absolutely.

Stuart Wellington

[4:20] My job of a glory hole of...

[4:22] I don't know.

[4:24] Operator?

[4:24] Is the term?

[4:25] An operator?

[4:28] So, speaking of glory holes, we watched a kid's movie today.

[4:31] We did watch it tonight.

[4:33] So, we're doing our social duty of letting parents know what kids' movies not to show their kids,

[4:39] I guess.

[4:40] Yeah.

Dan McCoy

[4:40] We've talked about doing this movie for a while.

[4:43] And we haven't with good...

[4:45] You have, pretty much.

[4:46] We haven't watched it up until now with good reason.

[4:50] Ellie and Stuart were against it.

S1

[4:52] Well, I think it was released in, I think, 2008, maybe even 2007.

[4:56] Okay.

Dan McCoy

[4:57] Wow.

[4:58] See, it's okay.

[4:59] It's more recent than I thought.

[5:00] We usually do movies that are fairly new to either DVD or premium cable.

[5:07] Just to have a veneer of currency to what we do.

[5:11] Give us a reason to exist.

Stuart Wellington

[5:14] Because a lot of the movies we review, honestly, are forgotten about fairly quickly.

Dan McCoy

[5:20] Well, this movie, that's the other reason why it's odd that we did this movie.

[5:24] Because this movie was not forgotten about because no one knew about it.

[5:28] It was never a thing.

[5:29] Yeah.

S1

[5:29] Forgotten about implies that someone remembered it.

[5:32] And then kind of...

[5:32] There were only five reviews for it on Rotten Tomatoes.

[5:35] Yeah.

[5:36] Yeah.

Dan McCoy

[5:37] But Gooby was a minor internet sensation based on the trailer.

[5:41] Yes.

S1

[5:43] I don't know if I'm allowed to tell you, but you said, would you like to see some of this?

[5:49] And I was like, ooh, Gooby, because that looks horribly bad and funny.

[5:54] And that's why I said, I would like to see Gooby.

[5:57] And then you're like, okay, Gooby it is.

[5:59] And sure enough, I got to see it.

Stuart Wellington

[6:02] And boy, did I get more than I bargained for.

[6:06] Yes.

[6:06] That's called a mistake.

[6:08] A mistake to say yes to that.

S1

[6:11] We'll make them.

[6:12] I thought it was going to be...

[6:14] Well, I mean, when you're going to be the guest host of the show, if you're going to sub in...

[6:18] Sure, it's tough.

[6:19] Yeah, it's tough, because I'm not going to be able to live up to Elliot at all.

Stuart Wellington

[6:24] Well, that's the thing.

[6:25] You can't be Elliot.

S1

[6:26] Right.

[6:26] So I was like, you know what I'm going to do?

[6:28] I'm going to make this great by getting a really great, crap bad, great movie.

[6:34] And I thought Gooby, that was like always betting on black.

[6:37] Sure, yep.

[6:38] Sure.

[6:38] Always bet on Gooby.

Stuart Wellington

[6:40] Yep.

[6:41] That's the star you're going to ride into the cosmos.

Dan McCoy

[6:43] I mean, I think your problem, first of all, was that you were taking advice from Wesley Snipes.

[6:49] When you were making your selection.

[6:50] He's had some tax problems, from what I hear.

[6:53] Yeah, you shouldn't listen to that guy right now.

[6:55] Yeah.

[6:57] But Gooby.

[6:59] It's a movie about a large bear.

[7:01] Or a man in a large bear suit.

[7:04] What's a bear, Dan?

[7:06] Well, it's a gay man.

[7:09] Okay.

[7:09] A larger gay man.

[7:10] Sure.

[7:11] Often hairy.

[7:12] Okay.

[7:13] And they're liked by a certain subset of the gay community for their fatherly characteristics.

Stuart Wellington

[7:18] Okay.

[7:19] So, what was going on with this bear, you say, and little boy?

Dan McCoy

[7:23] In this case, the bear was actually a teddy bear.

[7:26] Okay.

S1

[7:27] Forget everything else that I said.

[7:29] Voiced by Robbie Coltrane from fame of Harry Potter.

[7:33] Yeah, you may know him as...

[7:34] Hey, hey, cat.

Stuart Wellington

[7:36] He played Harry Potter in the Harry Potter movies.

Dan McCoy

[7:39] That's a little podcast bonus for you, me yelling at my cat.

[7:43] Everyone will enjoy that.

[7:45] I don't...

S1

[7:45] Do you normally...

[7:46] I don't think I've ever heard you yell at your cat.

Dan McCoy

[7:48] Normally, she doesn't claw at the furniture in the middle of our podcast.

Stuart Wellington

[7:52] She, you know, has a little sense of decorum, normally.

[7:55] Not tonight.

Dan McCoy

[7:57] Yeah, no.

[7:58] Robbie Coltrane.

[7:59] You may know Robbie Coltrane from Hagrid and Harry Potter.

[8:04] Yeah.

[8:05] You may be familiar with him from the BBC series Cracker.

S1

[8:08] Mm-hmm.

[8:09] And the movie The Pope Must Diet.

[8:11] Sure.

[8:12] Or The Pope Must Die.

Dan McCoy

[8:13] The film Nuns on the Run, where you might remember him in particular from the scene where he

[8:18] sits in the shower room while all the young aspiring nuns are showering around him.

[8:25] Yeah, he's just ogling them.

[8:27] Mm-hmm.

[8:27] It's kind of creepy.

[8:28] So, that's Robbie Coltrane for you.

[8:31] Yeah.

S1

[8:31] He's the kind of guy who spies on nun students.

[8:34] He has a few...

[8:35] He has an appearance in Black Adder, which I always thought was funny.

[8:38] Yeah.

[8:38] Kind of a big Black Adder nut, but...

Dan McCoy

[8:40] No, he's a talented...

[8:42] He's a good actor.

Stuart Wellington

[8:43] And I have no idea why he decided to do the voice for Gooby.

[8:47] Yeah.

[8:48] Guessing it was money-related.

[8:51] Yeah.

Dan McCoy

[8:51] I think that if you're, like, you know, if you're a...

[8:54] Or maybe the script called to him.

[8:56] Sure.

[8:58] If you're a good actor, like, sometimes you do these, like, movies assuming that no one's

[9:03] going to see them.

[9:03] And rightfully so, in this case.

[9:05] Like, there's a certain threshold where it can't do any damage to your career.

Stuart Wellington

[9:10] Yeah.

[9:10] Maybe the director disguised himself as a paparazzo and followed him around and, like,

[9:17] recorded things he said and then spliced it together to make it into Gooby's dialogue.

[9:21] Sure.

[9:22] Wow.

S1

[9:23] He's also been working for so long.

[9:25] I guess just all these projects just kind of meld together at some point where he's just

[9:29] like, I don't know.

[9:30] Aside for him, there was Eugene Levy's in it.

[9:33] And I like Eugene Levy most of the time.

[9:36] Yeah.

[9:37] About, like...

[9:37] SCTV.

Dan McCoy

[9:38] But I just...

[9:39] Christopher Guest movies.

S1

[9:40] I have, like, a thing where I don't...

[9:42] American Pie.

[9:43] Mm-hmm.

[9:44] I feel always reluctant to shit on, like, anything that somebody was in.

[9:48] Like, because it's, like, so hard to make a movie or any kind of art.

[9:52] Well, you're at the right podcast.

[9:54] But, like...

[9:56] The respect house.

Stuart Wellington

[9:59] We're just here to give respect to people's efforts.

S1

[10:01] No, no.

[10:01] But at the same time, like...

[10:04] Like, I feel like Eugene Levy has done enough good work I can crap on this.

[10:09] Yeah.

[10:09] Because this was pretty not...

[10:12] Well, and it wasn't his fault.

Dan McCoy

[10:13] I mean, I think we can all look at this movie and recognize that Eugene Levy is not the problem.

[10:20] Yeah.

[10:21] Even with the Eugene Levy scenes.

[10:22] Like, you know, like, Eugene Levy hasn't been given gold to work with.

[10:26] Right.

[10:26] But he spun into crap.

S1

[10:28] I have to admit, though, he...

[10:31] As Stuart pointed out during the movie, he has the best name in the movie.

[10:34] Which is, he's a teacher, and his name is Mr. Nerdlinger.

[10:39] And, like, I feel like, how can you go wrong with a name like that?

[10:42] That's so implied.

[10:44] So, he's a nerd.

Dan McCoy

[10:47] Well, let's back up.

[10:48] Let's go through this.

[10:50] I guess I'll try to take Elliot's place.

[10:53] You want to?

[10:54] Since he's not here.

[10:55] I guess you want to be...

[10:55] Oh, with the summary.

Stuart Wellington

[10:56] The summary.

[10:57] I could try.

[10:58] Oh, yeah.

[10:58] Why don't we let Andy try?

[10:59] Yeah, give it a try.

[11:01] I'm bad at it.

S1

[11:02] Gooby is a movie about a young boy who moves into a new town.

[11:06] Mm-hmm.

[11:07] And he doesn't really have friends.

[11:09] Or...

[11:09] And he's being picked on by a bully.

[11:11] Okay.

Dan McCoy

[11:12] And he's a...

S1

[11:13] An Irish-looking chap.

Dan McCoy

[11:14] Yes.

[11:15] He's also scared of imaginary monsters called, I think...

[11:18] He calls them hooties?

[11:20] Hooties or honies.

S1

[11:21] Something like that.

[11:21] Or something like that.

[11:22] At one point he said, homies.

[11:24] And I thought that sounded kind of...

[11:26] Like the figurines?

[11:27] Yeah.

[11:30] So he has no friends.

[11:32] He's being bullied a little bit.

[11:34] His parents are kind of...

[11:36] Light bullying.

[11:37] Yeah.

[11:37] Very light...

[11:38] You only really see one scene.

[11:39] And he doesn't actually get bullied.

[11:41] Like, there's just like a kid bullied somebody else.

[11:44] And the other kid's like, ooh, we don't want to get bullied by that guy.

[11:47] Traumatized by it.

[11:48] Yeah.

[11:49] Followed by that, his parents are just not there a lot.

[11:54] And they hired an English nanny who is incredibly creepy.

Stuart Wellington

[11:58] Yeah.

[11:59] Well, also not really that connected.

[12:01] They don't form like a very good nanny...

[12:04] Person who's being nannied relationship.

[12:08] Yeah.

[12:09] There's no bond there.

[12:09] So his mother...

[12:11] It's not like a Mrs. Doubtfire sort of thing.

[12:13] That's what that movie's about, right?

[12:15] I think you missed a key twist in that film.

[12:18] Okay.

[12:18] So the British nanny does form...

S1

[12:21] Like, doesn't form a good bond?

[12:22] Stuart, the nanny in that movie was Robin Williams in drag.

[12:26] He was doing it to spend more time with his children.

Stuart Wellington

[12:28] Wait, like Nathan Lane or something?

[12:30] Or...

[12:31] Well, I mean...

Dan McCoy

[12:32] I guess like Nathan Lane.

Stuart Wellington

[12:34] Like, Nathan Lane could have played that character, though.

[12:37] That's what I'm saying.

Dan McCoy

[12:38] Well, Nathan Lane can play anything, Stuart.

[12:40] Okay.

Stuart Wellington

[12:41] Well, I think when they make Mrs. Doubtfire 2 or 3 or wherever they're at, they should

[12:45] probably try Nathan Lane for that role.

[12:47] Okay.

S1

[12:47] I think the Harvey Fierstein should try for that role.

[12:50] I think that's a little too...

[12:52] You think that's too on the nose?

[12:53] It's a little too...

[12:54] Um...

[12:56] So, at one point, I don't really exactly remember how it was phrased, but his mom was like,

[13:02] you don't need a friend.

[13:03] Uh, here.

[13:04] Use Gooby.

[13:05] You remember Gooby, your teddy bear?

[13:07] Mm-hmm.

[13:08] And he's like, I don't want that teddy bear.

[13:11] That teddy bear is for babies.

[13:13] Right.

[13:14] Yeah.

[13:14] And then...

[13:15] Good response.

[13:15] Um...

[13:16] This is all before they moved to the new place.

[13:19] Mm-hmm.

[13:19] And during the time that they moved to the new place, the bear was left at the old place.

[13:25] Uh-huh.

[13:25] He kind of transforms into a, I guess...

[13:27] Like electricity shoots all over him.

[13:29] Yeah.

Dan McCoy

[13:29] There's no explanation for how he transforms.

[13:32] We just cut back to the old place.

[13:33] Gooby...

[13:34] Gooby in the corner.

[13:35] We see animated electric effects go over him.

[13:39] Like, uh, like Attack of the Killer Tomatoes or something.

Stuart Wellington

[13:41] Or the movie Shocker.

[13:42] Sure.

[13:43] Or the movie Shocker.

S1

[13:44] And suddenly Gooby's in the television.

[13:47] Mm-hmm.

[13:47] For...

[13:48] What a movie.

[13:50] No, Gooby does not go into television.

[13:52] He comes alive and he's like a, I guess, five foot, six foot tall.

[13:56] No, no.

[13:56] He's not that tall.

[13:57] He's only like a foot taller than the kid, right?

[14:00] Yeah.

[14:00] He's not that tall, but he's oddly proportioned.

[14:03] Yes.

[14:03] Like he's got a great big chubby body and a tiny head.

[14:06] Like a Robert Crumb drawing.

[14:06] Right.

[14:07] He looks roughly kind of like Fozzie Bear and Sullivan from, or Sully from Monsters, Inc.

[14:14] Sure.

[14:15] And your worst nightmare.

[14:16] And yes.

[14:17] No, take all the cuteness of Fozzie Bear and Sullivan or Sully from Monsters, Inc.

[14:23] And make it as creepy as possible.

Stuart Wellington

[14:26] Imagine if they took one of the country bears and left them in the garbage.

Dan McCoy

[14:31] Like a garbage dump for a few years.

[14:34] And then they got him out.

Stuart Wellington

[14:35] And like the animatronics don't really work that well.

[14:37] And he, the face doesn't move that much, but they're like, eh, it's okay.

[14:41] Let's use it.

S1

[14:42] And hijinks ensue when he's coming alive and is now in, uh, Willie, who is the boy, his life

[14:48] and is invading his life and such.

[14:51] And the movie actually is kind of very convoluted and confusing after the points when Willie comes

[14:56] alive.

[14:57] There's a lot of...

[14:58] You mean Gooby.

[14:59] Because Willie's alive the whole time.

[15:01] Oh, I'm sorry.

[15:02] Gooby.

[15:03] No, you misunderstood.

[15:04] I missed a spot.

Dan McCoy

[15:06] Willie was a zombie steward.

Stuart Wellington

[15:07] It was like...

[15:08] It was like the sixth sense.

[15:10] And then after getting the amulet, he becomes a real boy again?

[15:12] Mm-hmm.

[15:13] Okay.

Dan McCoy

[15:13] Well, it was very, uh...

[15:15] It was based on...

[15:17] There was a lot of, uh, vignettes.

[15:19] Sure.

Stuart Wellington

[15:19] Not...

[15:20] It wasn't like a...

[15:21] I'll do that.

Dan McCoy

[15:22] There wasn't a strong plot thrust.

[15:24] So there was a lot of, uh, hiding Gooby from the...

[15:28] The nanny.

[15:30] And the parents.

[15:31] There was a lot of, like, Gooby comes to school and, uh, causes some, some distraction outside

[15:36] the window.

[15:37] And Eugene Levy gets mad.

[15:39] And, uh, Gooby goes to the store.

Stuart Wellington

[15:42] Yeah, well, before we touch on that, there's a lot of scenes where there's, like, a montage

[15:45] of the little boy and Gooby hanging out while, like, a love ballad plays in the background.

[15:51] Yeah, yeah.

[15:51] That seems strangely out of place for, like, a friendship scene.

[15:55] Yeah, they...

S1

[15:56] Whoever...

[15:57] The director of this movie...

[15:58] Not to read too much into it.

[15:59] Oh, the director of this movie, uh, I forgot his name, but his last name is...

[16:02] Wilson Coneybear?

[16:04] Wilson Coneybear.

[16:05] His actual name.

[16:07] Yeah.

Dan McCoy

[16:07] Uh, but...

[16:09] He, uh...

[16:11] Yeah, he doesn't seem to understand music cues.

[16:14] Like, they are all music cues from, like, say, like, a late 80s romantic comedy.

[16:21] You know?

[16:22] That's fair.

[16:22] Like, if there's a scene...

[16:23] When they're not Mickey Mouse-ing.

[16:25] Yeah.

[16:26] Yeah, like, there's a lot of, uh, score things where, like, Gooby's, like, walking around

[16:30] and, like, doot, doot, doot, doot, woo!

[16:33] Like, sort of, like, score.

[16:34] But then, like, uh, yeah, if there's a pop song, it seems like they're...

[16:38] The message is really that there's some sort of love relationship between...

[16:41] I can't live without your touch.

[16:42] Yeah.

Stuart Wellington

[16:43] I miss the smell of your fur on my face.

[16:46] That's my best singing voice, by the way.

[16:48] So, if...

[16:49] It was very impressive.

[16:50] If Carson Daly's out there listening, um, I am available.

S1

[16:54] As we all know that Carson Daly just loves to book people for musical contracts.

Stuart Wellington

[16:58] You can reach me at stewardwillington at theflophousehousecat.internet.

Dan McCoy

[17:07] So...

[17:07] That's my Flophousehousecat fan site that I operate.

[17:11] Yeah, but, okay, like, just to speed it up, to give you, like, uh, just a really rough

[17:16] outline.

[17:17] So, uh, Gooby helps this kid make new friends at his new school.

[17:23] But then that backfires on Gooby because now the kid doesn't have as much time for Gooby.

[17:29] And so Gooby goes away for a while and they're estranged in love ballads play.

[17:34] And then Gooby just comes back.

[17:36] There's no real, like, like, oh, I gotta get Gooby back.

[17:39] Gooby just shows up back again and everything's fine.

S1

[17:41] This movie had, like, no consequences to any of the actions that happened to it throughout

[17:46] the movie.

[17:47] Yeah.

[17:48] Like, nothing, like, there's a point where you're like, oh my god, no one's supposed to

[17:51] see Gooby.

[17:52] And there's times where tons of people have seen Gooby and nobody really cares.

[17:56] Yeah.

[17:56] Or is it, like, talked about...

Stuart Wellington

[17:58] Their brains don't melt from seeing a giant walking teddy bear.

[18:01] Right.

Dan McCoy

[18:01] Yeah, well, basically, it's either, like, you know, Eugene Levy is the ineffectual guy

[18:06] seeing Gooby and, like, no one's gonna believe him.

[18:08] Like, he's basically playing his role from Splash, I pointed out.

[18:11] You know, where he's like, I'm gonna prove there's a mermaid!

[18:13] You know, like, it's the same thing here.

[18:15] Or it's the equivalent of, you know, like, one of those movies where someone sees something

[18:19] crazy and then they rub their eyes and then they throw away the bottle of booze that they've

[18:24] been drinking and then that's all that happens.

S1

[18:25] There's a scene where Gooby has some hijinks because the father in the movie is an architect

[18:31] of some sort and they go to a construction site and somehow Gooby gets hooked onto the

[18:36] big mechanical crane and is hanging there and the crane operator.

[18:40] Yeah, he does.

Stuart Wellington

[18:43] Yeah, he looks very drunk or high.

S1

[18:45] Which is, makes perfect sense when you're operating such a heavy, dangerous piece of equipment.

[18:50] In Baltimore.

[18:51] And Gooby is just like, hey!

[18:53] And the crane operator's just like, hey!

Stuart Wellington

[18:57] This is a good way to end a scene.

Dan McCoy

[19:00] Yeah.

[19:00] And then the scene ends and we don't understand, we don't see how that resolved at all.

[19:05] But anyway, to tie it up into a bow, Gooby returns.

[19:11] He's like...

Dan McCoy

[19:11] He's not trying to wrangle us, Dan.

[19:13] No, I just want to get through the synopsis and then we can go back and pick it apart a

[19:16] little bit more.

S1

[19:17] And then talk about something completely different other than this movie.

Dan McCoy

[19:21] DuckTales, for instance.

[19:22] Yeah.

S1

[19:22] Oh, man.

[19:23] I can't wait to get into the DuckTales portion of the show.

[19:26] Don't worry about it.

[19:26] We'll get there later.

[19:27] Okay, Dan.

Stuart Wellington

[19:28] So, what were you saying about the movie?

Dan McCoy

[19:29] No, once Gooby comes back, he's like, I think that my job here is to take you back to where

[19:33] your dad used to live.

[19:35] Sure.

[19:36] I don't know where he gets this idea.

[19:37] He said it in more of a Scottish accent.

S1

[19:38] The weird thing is, the way you just said it is pretty much how it's said in the movie.

[19:43] It's just like, I think I finally figured out what I'm here to do.

[19:47] I'm glad.

Dan McCoy

[19:48] So, he takes him back to this old, like, abandoned building, basically.

[19:54] And the kid falls through the floor and is dangling off of a pipe.

[19:59] And the dad comes to rescue him.

[20:01] We'll get into the details of how, because that's crazy.

[20:04] But then they're all back together again.

[20:07] And the dad has redeemed himself, Mary Poppins style.

[20:10] You know, let's all go fly, kite.

[20:12] And they meet Gooby.

[20:13] And the mom meets Gooby.

[20:15] And it seems like, I guess, Gooby's now going to live with them.

[20:17] But then, no.

Stuart Wellington

[20:18] Like Harry and the Hendersons.

Dan McCoy

[20:19] It's not that.

[20:20] Gooby gets given away to, like, another needy little girl at the end of the movie.

[20:25] And then a love ballad plays over the credits.

S1

[20:27] Which is a great idea.

[20:28] In a weird way, I don't think that little girl really needed a friend.

[20:32] She didn't look, like, unhappy.

[20:34] Yeah, she seemed fine.

[20:35] Yeah.

Stuart Wellington

[20:35] I mean, she seemed bored, because somebody took her fucking Nintendo DS out of the room.

Dan McCoy

[20:41] They're at, like, a lumber yard.

[20:42] They're at, like, a Home Depot sort of.

S1

[20:45] How many relationships have Gooby invaded?

[20:49] Just be like, you look like you need a friend.

[20:51] No, I'm just kind of bored.

[20:52] I'm waiting around.

[20:53] No, no.

[20:53] You need me.

[20:54] I need to be in your life.

[20:56] Don't you understand?

Dan McCoy

[20:57] I need to aggressively interpolate myself into your life.

[21:00] And cause, I think.

[21:01] I'm a giant bear.

Stuart Wellington

[21:02] I hope you have plenty of marshmallow cookies for me to eat.

[21:05] Oh, yes.

[21:06] That is.

[21:06] He made baskets.

S1

[21:08] That is.

[21:08] I love marshmallow cookie sandwiches.

[21:10] That is Gooby's Achilles heel in the movie.

[21:13] So.

[21:13] He can't resist marshmallow cookies.

[21:15] I think that.

[21:16] Or Malamars.

Dan McCoy

[21:17] There's enough absurd things in this movie that I kind of want to go, like, a little more structured than normal.

[21:24] And just be like, ask each of you, what was your favorite absurdity in the film?

Stuart Wellington

[21:30] So that's what you want to do.

[21:31] Is that what we are doing?

Dan McCoy

[21:34] That's what I'd like to do, and then I'm sure that it's not going to happen.

[21:37] Okay.

[21:37] So, Stuart.

[21:40] My favorite thing about the movie.

[21:42] Like what?

Stuart Wellington

[21:43] I'd probably say I loved the fact that when Gooby's, oh, wait, not Gooby's dad.

[21:50] Gooby doesn't have a dad.

[21:51] He's a bear.

[21:52] When Willie's dad comes to rescue him, he, you know, before he gets there, he had gotten a phone call that his son was in this abandoned building.

[22:00] Yeah.

[22:00] And, you know, of course, he wrote the directions down on the page of some, like, nice full color photo book that he has.

[22:07] And he tore the page out, which is really weird.

[22:09] And then he gets there, finds his son, and he's trying to save his son.

[22:15] And then the police show up, and then, you know, he yells at the police, and they, I guess, let him just save his son.

[22:20] It's really weird.

[22:21] And it all turns out that Gooby is the one who phone called him, which, for one, I didn't know that Gooby could manipulate a cell phone because he's got giant fucking paws.

[22:32] Yeah.

[22:32] Second of all, he doesn't have a phone on him.

[22:35] You said that Willie had a phone on him, so he borrowed it.

[22:37] Yeah, I don't know.

[22:38] How do you do that?

[22:38] Like, do you use the force?

[22:39] Like, an Empire Strikes Back and pulled out of his pocket?

[22:42] And if he had that ability, why didn't he just save the little kid?

Dan McCoy

[22:45] Well, I think you're glossing over an even, like, crazier absurdity in this film, which is, like, they go to this abandoned building.

[22:53] Willie falls through the floor.

[22:55] That makes sense so far.

[22:56] He's dangling from a pipe from the ceiling.

[22:58] Gooby doesn't know what to do.

[23:00] Then we cut to the home, and the dad gets a phone call, and he's like, what?

[23:04] I'll be there right away.

[23:06] And, like, we see him, like, pulling up outside in the car.

[23:09] He comes in.

[23:09] And the kid is still dangling from this pipe.

[23:11] So, basically, the kid has fallen.

[23:14] He's dangling from this pipe.

[23:15] Gooby makes a phone call.

[23:16] His dad drives up to this house.

[23:18] And he skedaddles.

[23:19] Yeah.

[23:19] And this kid has been dangling from this pipe this entire time.

[23:23] While the phone call was made, while the drive was made.

Stuart Wellington

[23:26] You would have liked there to be, like, a scene of the Willie character being really awesome and doing, like, chin-ups or something.

Dan McCoy

[23:33] The other weird thing about that.

[23:34] I mean, he would have gotten, like, on the flexed arm hang in school.

[23:37] He would have been, like, presidential level for sure.

S1

[23:40] Yeah, absolutely.

[23:42] The other weird thing, too, about that movie is that two cops drive by in that scene.

[23:46] And they're just kind of sitting out there waiting.

[23:49] I don't know what for.

[23:51] And they're, like, something's suspicious.

[23:53] Like, they hear something.

[23:54] Well, it's on their beat, right?

[23:55] Yeah.

[23:56] The old abandoned house is on their beat.

[23:58] Like, oh, you gotta go.

[23:59] Check that shit out.

[24:00] You don't want squatters or.

[24:01] But they don't.

[24:01] But the thing is, they don't actually go into the building until the dad goes into the building.

[24:06] And then they were, like.

[24:08] And then, like, the dad's, like, I thought you guys called me to come and save my son.

[24:14] And then the cops are, like, we didn't know you were coming.

[24:16] We didn't call.

Stuart Wellington

[24:19] And then, like, there's this.

[24:20] And then they leave.

[24:20] And then they're, like, face closed and give each other a high five.

[24:25] Well, let's just let this guy wander around the abandoned building a little more.

[24:30] With his terrified child.

[24:32] But he leaves the kid.

[24:34] The dad wanders off by himself to find his old apartment and runs into Gooby.

[24:38] And that's where they have their.

[24:39] To find his old room.

S1

[24:40] Okay, here's another thing.

[24:41] He runs into Gooby.

Dan McCoy

[24:42] Like, Gooby was, like, lurking in his dad's old, like, private room.

[24:47] Like, the secret place that his dad would go to.

[24:50] And that room apparently has not been changed.

[24:52] Everything else in the building is, you know, like, decrepit.

[24:55] Everything's been taken out.

[24:56] Also, Gooby knows where it is.

[24:57] Yeah.

[24:57] But his dad's old, like, crayon drawings are still on the wall in the secret space.

[25:03] He has a viewmaster.

[25:05] Sure.

S1

[25:06] This is unchanged by time.

[25:08] Yeah.

[25:10] Also, there's, like, there's no payoff for it.

[25:12] But at one point, like, then, like, this is the first time Gooby actually talks to the dad.

[25:18] And Gooby's, like, I, you.

Stuart Wellington

[25:20] It's like, it's like Hamlet's dad's ghost in Hamlet.

S1

[25:23] Yeah.

[25:23] In a conversation, right?

[25:24] I definitely associate that.

[25:26] There's a point where Gooby's, like, here, I, I want you to have these.

[25:30] These are your old plans for, like, a tree house, I think, or a clubhouse that you're supposed to, like, build for your son that you drew when you're obviously little.

[25:39] That's here.

[25:41] And it's just, like, there's a thing where the father's, like.

Stuart Wellington

[25:45] It's like, no way are these going to be safe.

[25:47] First of all, there's a dragon holding this up.

[25:51] Unless, because there's talking, talking teddy bears, I guess there could be dragons.

[25:57] And they keep referring to him as a monster.

[25:59] I mean, granted, he's pretty horrible looking, but I would assume he's a bear or an actual normal creature.

[26:04] Well, he's supposed to.

Dan McCoy

[26:05] A normal creature.

[26:05] Sorry, I'm getting so loud.

[26:06] Yeah.

[26:07] I'm getting feisty tonight.

Stuart Wellington

[26:08] Yeah.

[26:08] Well, it's a crazy movie.

[26:10] But, like, he's not really a monster.

[26:12] I would, like, he's got a scarf on and he's gross, but he's basically like a bear, right?

Dan McCoy

[26:18] Well, let me, I mean, let me chime in with one of my crazy moments.

[26:24] And this is, you know, this is not the craziest, but I want to leave something for Andy.

[26:28] You know, I don't want to eat up every crazy moment on the plate.

[26:32] But, uh.

S1

[26:33] Like a crazy moment hog that you are.

[26:35] Yeah.

[26:36] Just like, oh, crazy moments.

Dan McCoy

[26:39] Delicious.

[26:39] They're like marshmallow cookies to Gooby.

Stuart Wellington

[26:43] Thanks for tying it back to something I can relate to.

[26:47] The audience can't, because they have no idea what the fuck we're talking about.

[26:50] Because no one's seen Gooby.

[26:51] And shouldn't, probably.

Dan McCoy

[26:53] But here's a, you're talking about how he's not scary, but I want to talk about one.

[26:58] One moment in the film.

[26:59] Oh.

[27:00] So they go to, like, on Halloween, you know, like, the dad's too busy to take the kid out

[27:06] to do trick-or-treating, I guess.

[27:08] Except for they don't go trick-or-treating.

[27:10] But anyway, we'll get to that in a second.

[27:11] But the kid has a brainstorm.

[27:12] He's like, oh, now's the time I can take Gooby out.

[27:15] Because everyone's just going to assume that he's a guy in a bear costume.

[27:18] Which, honestly, if he looks enough like a guy in a bear costume for them to assume that

[27:22] on Halloween, they would assume that at any time.

[27:25] You know?

[27:26] Yeah.

[27:26] Like, Gooby is not, like, such an anthropomorphized, like, realistic bear that everyone's going to

[27:31] be like, holy shit, there's a talking bear walking around.

[27:34] Yes.

[27:34] They're just going to figure out, like, oh, look at this fucking plushie over here.

[27:38] Right.

[27:38] But anyway.

[27:39] Sure.

[27:40] So he takes him back.

Stuart Wellington

[27:41] A plushie is somebody who gets some kind of sexual gratification from fursuits?

[27:43] Yes.

[27:44] Sure.

[27:44] Okay.

[27:44] Exactly.

[27:45] Thanks.

Dan McCoy

[27:46] But, uh, so, on Halloween, instead of going trick-or-treating, actually, they get dressed

[27:50] up in costumes.

[27:51] And apparently every kid gets dressed up in costume and goes to see a movie down at the

[27:55] Multiplex.

[27:55] Sure.

[27:56] And.

[27:57] I saw three.

[27:58] Didn't we watch that?

S1

[28:00] I would like to note that there's a point where, uh, Goopy, Goopy was like, what do you

[28:04] want to see?

[28:05] He's talking to the other kids.

[28:06] He's like, what do you guys want to see?

[28:08] Big Adventure?

[28:08] And he points to a movie poster of a family-friendly movie.

[28:12] And then the kids are like, no way.

[28:14] And I'm not joking.

[28:15] I forgot the title of the movie, but they're like, no way.

[28:17] We want to see Action Death 2000.

[28:21] It's death action.

[28:23] I believe it's two.

[28:24] It's actually the sequel.

[28:25] And there's a sequence where you see them watching the movie and it's all screaming chainsaws

[28:30] and gunshots.

Stuart Wellington

[28:32] And like squealing tires.

[28:35] Which, frankly, I kind of want to see.

Dan McCoy

[28:37] I want to see Sound Effects Real 2000.

[28:42] All right.

[28:43] But that's after Goopy has pretended to be his father so they can buy tickets.

[28:47] And then later on, he confesses that he really liked pretending to be his father.

Stuart Wellington

[28:51] And then they just cue another love ballad.

[28:53] No.

[28:54] Well, you...

[28:54] The EP scene in the movie.

[28:56] Yeah, I like being your dad.

[28:57] You're telling me?

[28:58] Like, I say that to all my fucking friends.

Dan McCoy

[29:00] No, but I wanted to get back to, like, the moment I was really wanting to talk about was when

[29:04] the bully that we talked about before actually finally threatens the kid.

[29:10] And this big red-headed kid in a hot dog costume comes over to Menace Willie.

[29:18] And Gooby, all of a sudden, you know, breaks out the fucking fangs.

[29:25] Like, he, like, growls at the kid.

[29:27] And all of a sudden, it's like this large Marge moment in the movie.

[29:30] It's fair.

[29:31] It's a lot like large Marge.

[29:32] Gooby actually looks genuinely terrifying for a second.

[29:36] And then the hot dog pees his pants.

S1

[29:38] The hot dog...

[29:39] The bully in the hot dog outfit pees his pants.

Stuart Wellington

[29:43] Yeah.

[29:43] So do you feel like he escalated it too much?

[29:46] Or is it, like...

[29:47] Is it any worse than the scene in Little Monsters where Howie Long...

[29:51] Howie Long.

[29:53] Yeah, popular comedian Howie Long.

[29:56] You said that right?

[29:58] Howie Long and Terry Hatcher come in.

[30:01] She showed up later in the movie.

[30:02] When he peed in that kid's apple juice and he drank it.

[30:06] Like, I think that's way worse than just scaring the shit out of some kid with your crazy face.

[30:10] He scared the piss out of that kid.

[30:12] Yeah, that's okay.

[30:12] Thank you.

[30:13] Semantics here.

Dan McCoy

[30:15] I was no biological waste.

[30:16] I find it more unpleasant, the piss drinking.

[30:19] But in terms of actual, like, an alarming moment...

[30:23] Like, Gooby actually looks kind of alarming in the first place.

[30:26] So for that mask to be pulled back...

[30:28] Sure.

[30:29] And him to actually just, like, really go for it would be terrifying.

[30:33] It disturbed me.

S1

[30:34] There was a point where I think the scary face that he does looks like it's a little CGI'd.

[30:40] Yeah.

[30:40] If I'm not wrong.

[30:41] Yeah.

[30:41] And I think there was a point where the director had to be fighting this at one point.

[30:44] He's like, no, I want it all practical.

[30:46] I want it all to be all these practical bear effects.

[30:49] And then he's like, no, come on.

[30:50] It needs to be a scary face.

[30:52] Let's do a little CGI.

[30:53] He's like, all right, I'll do it.

Stuart Wellington

[30:55] You're not going to see the real weight of the bear, though.

[30:58] I hope that they had originally, like, spliced in footage of just, like, a grizzly bear growling.

[31:04] That would have been awesome.

S1

[31:05] If you want to go for...

[31:06] If you're in the mood for...

[31:08] I mean, I don't know what my recommendation is.

[31:10] I'm going to save it, obviously.

[31:12] But there is a...

[31:13] There are spoilers.

[31:14] But there is a thought of, like, if you're into, like, movies that look really bad of, like, just, like, the mouth sinking to the dialogue that Gooby actually says is natrocious.

[31:27] There's times his mouth does not move at all.

[31:29] Right.

[31:29] In the movie.

[31:30] And that is just, like, classic 1970s and 80s, like...

[31:35] And his dialogue is mixed so low that I couldn't understand half the shit he was saying.

[31:40] And he's English, so it's all a lot of...

Stuart Wellington

[31:42] Sure.

S1

[31:45] Apples and potatoes.

[31:47] What's all this?

[31:49] Like Daniel Craig.

[31:51] That's my favorite impression is...

[31:53] This is my impression of any cop approaching a Sherlock Holmes death scene in the beginning of the story.

[32:00] Oh, what's all this then?

Stuart Wellington

[32:03] So that guy could have been Gooby.

[32:05] Yeah.

[32:07] Sorry, Robbie Coltrane.

[32:09] So...

[32:09] And there's that great, great scene in the supermarket where the, like, 20-minute scene...

[32:15] Oh, my God.

[32:16] That was great.

[32:16] Like, running around and...

Dan McCoy

[32:18] Yeah, there's...

[32:19] I likened it to that scene in any Hanna-Barbera cartoon where people are running in and out of doors in a hallway...

[32:25] Sure.

[32:25] ...while a pop song plays.

[32:27] Because there was a pop song playing.

[32:29] Like, not a pop song that anyone would recognize.

S1

[32:31] First of all, I would like to just define that pop song implies popular song.

[32:37] And then, like, we would recognize what this song is.

[32:41] Yeah.

[32:41] This song, every song...

[32:43] There is a lot of original songs in this movie.

[32:46] And all of them are pretty grating on your nerves.

Dan McCoy

[32:50] Not original in the sense that they're unique.

Stuart Wellington

[32:53] They're original in the sense that they suck.

[32:55] And just like in any Hanna-Barbera cartoon, they...

[32:58] You know, in the middle of this sequence, there's a moment where they, you know, they pause the music.

[33:03] Yeah.

[33:03] And in this case, Gooby sees a stand-up of a bear that's advertising, I guess, gummy bears.

[33:11] Yeah.

[33:12] And there's something...

[33:13] He mentions that because it, like, looks like him...

[33:16] And then he goes over and starts eating the gummy bears.

[33:18] Yeah.

[33:18] Which is really strange.

Dan McCoy

[33:20] Yeah, it's what you do when you see something like...

[33:21] If you were in a store and you're like, oh, look, there's these gummy stewards over here.

[33:26] Sure.

[33:26] You are then immediately compelled to just shove those into your mouth.

[33:29] You're like, I bet this is more delicious to me because it looks like me.

[33:33] Yeah.

[33:33] You know, like, I don't find it disturbing to eat something...

Stuart Wellington

[33:37] I mean, I do that if...

Dan McCoy

[33:37] That's an effigy of myself.

Stuart Wellington

[33:39] Even if they weren't gummies, you know.

[33:40] Sure.

[33:40] Like, even if they were, I don't know, like little meat sacks.

[33:43] Right.

Dan McCoy

[33:44] Little clones of you.

Stuart Wellington

[33:45] Basically.

[33:46] Like...

[33:46] Little homunculi.

[33:47] Little Stuart fetuses.

[33:49] Sure.

[33:50] Oh.

[33:50] Well, I do kind of look like a fetus with a little mustache on them.

[33:55] Sure.

[33:55] That'd be awesome.

[33:56] I mean...

[33:57] Fry it up.

[33:59] Well, I don't know where you're going to get a frying pan at that part of the grocery store,

[34:03] but...

[34:03] Maybe in the deli section?

Dan McCoy

[34:06] You can buy it in that situation.

[34:08] You can take it home.

Stuart Wellington

[34:09] Stir fry stew.

[34:10] Yeah, exactly.

[34:11] Like a little tiny...

[34:12] So what we're trying to say is that I'm...

[34:15] Wait, you're crazy for thinking that or I'm crazy?

S1

[34:19] Yeah.

[34:19] The weird thing also about that grocery store segment, which is not even my craziest moment

[34:25] of the movie, but...

[34:27] Is that Gooby goes to the grocery store without Willie knowing, and Willie approaches him.

[34:32] He's like, what are you doing in the grocery store?

[34:35] You're not supposed to be here.

[34:37] What are you doing?

[34:39] You can't just eat things off the rack.

[34:41] It's just like...

[34:42] He was more mad that he was eating things off the rack and that he just escaped without...

[34:48] Yeah.

Dan McCoy

[34:48] It is...

[34:49] Countless people must have seen him come to the grocery store.

S1

[34:51] Like, it's not like the grocery store, there's like a back door that goes immediately to

[34:55] the woods.

Stuart Wellington

[34:56] Yeah, like you're imagining the nightly news, they're like, strange bear thing wanders down

[35:01] Main Street.

Dan McCoy

[35:02] Well, then...

[35:02] And then imagine ten minutes of them running back and forth, like, from Eugene Levy on one

[35:07] side and then elderly stock boy on the other side.

[35:10] Like, oh no, someone's gonna see Gooby more than the couple seconds that they've already

[35:15] seen Gooby.

[35:15] The other thing I didn't like...

[35:16] And the zany running around.

S1

[35:19] The other thing I didn't like about the store scene is that there's a point where there

[35:21] is a cart full of fruit that you see.

[35:25] And I remember just thinking to myself, like, I'm like, oh, obviously that's gonna explode

[35:29] with fruit and just go everywhere.

[35:32] Yeah, he's gonna do a fruit take.

[35:33] Yeah, he's gonna...

[35:34] A fruit...

[35:34] It's gonna get knocked over and a big mess is gonna happen.

[35:37] And I was just, come on.

[35:38] And then they did it and it was just not as big as I thought it would be.

[35:42] It was just like a mild, like...

[35:44] A mild pushover.

[35:45] Like, the art department's like, I'm not getting all that fruit.

[35:48] Like, I don't wanna go around looking for every single apple.

Stuart Wellington

[35:52] Yep, let's do that.

S1

[35:53] The union guys said two boxes max.

[35:58] This movie has...

[35:59] This movie has a plethora of bizarre, crazy scenes, I think, that are worth mentioning.

[36:07] Probably, to a certain degree, probably not worth renting or buying to see them.

[36:13] But I...

[36:14] The...

S1

[36:14] The...

[36:15] The craziest moment in the movie...

[36:16] And it makes no sense.

[36:18] And I'm having a hard time figuring it out.

[36:20] And, like, when we saw it, I think we were all going, wait, what?

[36:23] Hold...

[36:24] I think we had to rewind it because we're like, wait, how did that...

[36:28] So there's a scene where...

[36:29] So there's a scene where...

S1

[36:29] Um...

[36:30] When, uh...

[36:31] Willie becomes friend...

[36:33] More friends with the kids at school.

[36:34] Mm-hmm.

[36:35] And he abandons Gooby to a certain extent.

[36:37] And Gooby's staying home and, like, watching old movies and masturbating or whatever.

[36:42] There's a point...

[36:43] Whatever Goobies do.

[36:44] Whatever Goobies do when they're lonely.

[36:46] He's at school.

[36:47] He's having a good time.

[36:49] He's hanging out with his friends.

[36:50] He's really clicking in.

[36:51] And at a certain point, uh, he's in the middle of playing a soccer game.

[36:55] And a soccer ball is twirling toward his friend.

[36:59] And...

[36:59] Well, you assume it's toward his friend.

[37:00] You don't actually...

[37:01] You can't...

[37:01] No, it's toward his friend.

[37:03] And then his friend, uh, Willie.

[37:05] Willie goes, oh no, it's gonna hit my friend.

[37:08] And he pushes Willie out of the way.

[37:09] And he goes, no!

Dan McCoy

[37:11] It's like jumping in front of a bullet.

[37:13] Yeah.

S1

[37:13] Uh, a soccer ball, by the way.

[37:16] Which, as Stuart pointed out, the main thing that hits your head in a soccer game.

Stuart Wellington

[37:20] Yeah, a big part of a soccer game is the ball hitting parts of your body.

[37:24] Yeah.

S1

[37:25] So, uh, at that point, we cut to home, where Gooby is staying in the shed.

[37:31] And there's a point where, uh, Gooby is looking inside and the father's like, what?

[37:36] There's an emergency?

[37:38] Oh, I guess I better get going.

[37:40] And Gooby hitches a ride with the father thinking that his, that Willie was endangered because he got hit with the soccer ball.

[37:47] Right.

[37:48] But really, it was an emergency at work that the father had to go to.

[37:51] Gooby goes to the construction site.

[37:53] There were some hijinks.

[37:54] We talked about that earlier.

[37:55] Yeah.

[37:55] But, like, but the thing is, like, and then later on, uh, he gets hurt.

[38:00] Uh, Gooby gets hurt at the construction site.

[38:02] Willie's sewing him up.

[38:03] And then there's a point where Gooby's like, I thought they were, did you, how was your head?

[38:08] Did you get hit by the soccer ball?

[38:10] There's no way that Gooby would have known that.

[38:13] Right.

[38:13] Yeah.

[38:13] And then he's like, that's why I went to the construction site.

[38:16] I thought you were.

[38:17] I thought your dad was talking about the injury that you got at soccer.

[38:21] I.

[38:21] That I knew about somehow.

[38:23] Yeah.

[38:23] And it's just, like, the whole thing would have made more sense if they just said, Gooby's psychic a little.

[38:28] Yeah.

[38:29] Or he has, like, a certain telepathic link.

[38:31] Mm-hmm.

[38:32] But they just.

Dan McCoy

[38:32] Like E.T., like you said, right?

[38:34] Yeah.

[38:34] Like E.T.

[38:35] Or, like, you know, like, you know, they're linked by childhood dreams.

S1

[38:38] Yeah, but there's just, like.

[38:39] Sure.

[38:40] But there's just, there's no.

Stuart Wellington

[38:41] Two players tied together by fate.

S1

[38:46] It's not as funny as those other moments, but there's just this thought of, like, oh, well.

[38:51] There was, like, no explanation to why Gooby knew.

[38:54] Yeah.

Stuart Wellington

[38:54] About his.

[38:55] It was the.

[38:56] How inexplicable it was, I think, that made it interesting.

[39:00] Mm-hmm.

Dan McCoy

[39:01] Every good piece of art contains one thing that's just unknowable.

[39:06] Okay.

[39:07] That's.

S1

[39:08] That's the one thing.

[39:09] That's the one thing.

[39:10] That's the single thing.

[39:11] The single thing.

[39:11] Everything else is tied up.

[39:13] It's like that.

[39:14] It's like that sculpture of the thinker.

[39:16] You want to know what he's thinking.

[39:17] Sure.

[39:18] Or why Gooby knew.

[39:20] But.

Stuart Wellington

[39:21] Yeah.

[39:21] I want to say, like.

[39:22] At some point, director Wilson Candy Bear or whatever is going to come out and be like.

[39:26] Director Wilson Phillips.

[39:27] The reason he knew was there was an email.

[39:34] One of the kids was tweeting about how this dork named Willie got hit in the head with a soccer ball.

[39:39] That's in the commentary.

Dan McCoy

[39:40] Like, oh, we had to delete this scene.

[39:42] Yeah.

[39:43] This email scene.

[39:44] Yeah.

Stuart Wellington

[39:45] Because we just figured the audience didn't care.

[39:47] And, well, they figured the audience would put the pieces together.

[39:49] Mm-hmm.

[39:50] They filled in the gaps.

[39:51] But that's.

[39:53] Would you safely say that's bad filmmaking right there?

[39:56] Yeah.

[39:57] Is maybe occasionally overestimating your audience bad filmmaking?

[40:02] I don't think so.

[40:03] So, I want to.

Dan McCoy

[40:05] Before we move on.

[40:06] Like, I.

[40:06] They don't talk down to you, you know.

[40:07] Sure.

Stuart Wellington

[40:08] Before we get to.

[40:09] They know I don't have to be spoon-fed every little bit.

[40:12] Before we move on to the DuckTales portion of the show.

Dan McCoy

[40:15] The traditional DuckTales portion.

Stuart Wellington

[40:18] Well, we're a bad movie and DuckTales podcast.

[40:22] Come for the bad movie.

S1

[40:23] Stay for the DuckTales.

[40:24] DuckTales.

Dan McCoy

[40:25] On iTunes, that's our secondary category.

[40:28] DuckTales.

[40:30] But.

[40:31] One more thing I want to talk about.

[40:33] Or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

[40:35] One more thing I want to talk about is the odd usage of the secondary characters in this film.

[40:41] Okay.

[40:42] So, we have this nanny slash housekeeper character.

[40:46] Who is set up to be kind of like an evil.

[40:50] An evil babysitter a little bit.

[40:52] Like, she thinks that, like, you know, like, Gooby steals the cookies.

[40:55] Like, she shakes babies and stuff.

[40:57] Not that evil.

[40:58] Oh, okay.

[40:59] You don't need, like, a nanny cam or anything.

S1

[41:01] According to most Subway ads, I've been informed not to shake any babies.

[41:04] Yeah.

[41:06] I mean.

[41:06] I don't ride the Subway.

Dan McCoy

[41:08] If it's a.

Stuart Wellington

[41:09] I don't watch ads for Subway sandwiches.

Dan McCoy

[41:13] That's a better joke.

[41:14] If it's a salt shaker.

[41:16] Second shaker is better.

[41:17] Or if you're putting a baby in a.

[41:19] In a cup with some ice cream and root beer.

[41:22] Sure.

[41:23] Those are times.

[41:25] Anyway.

[41:26] So, this character is set up to be, like, maybe an antagonist.

[41:31] Like, you know, she thinks that the kid's stealing the cookies, but it's Gooby.

[41:35] And, like, oh, we got to hide Gooby from the nanny.

[41:39] And then she disappears for basically the entire second half of the film.

[41:45] To the degree that we were all kind of like, so, is that, was she fired?

[41:50] Did they.

Stuart Wellington

[41:50] She probably moved on to a secondary career of sweater modeling.

Dan McCoy

[41:54] Yeah.

[41:55] There are a lot of sweaters in this movie.

[41:57] This movie.

[41:57] But then she shows up, like, asleep in one scene late in the film.

[42:00] Like, oh, yeah.

[42:00] That was a character that the film used and then discarded.

[42:04] It's called an arc, Dan.

S1

[42:05] Okay.

[42:06] There is, um.

[42:07] There are a lot of red herrings in this movie that is not a mystery at all.

Dan McCoy

[42:11] Well, I also wanted to talk about Eugene Levy.

[42:13] Because, like, Eugene Levy is, like, sort of an unusual character.

[42:17] I feel.

[42:17] He has an unusual hairstyle that looks like the owl from Marvel Comics.

[42:22] Well, I was, like, when Eugene Levy shows up, he comes in.

[42:26] Mr. Nerlinger.

[42:27] Mr. Nerlinger.

[42:28] He comes in and he talks about his fish books for young people that no one has read.

[42:35] That he writes.

[42:35] Yeah.

[42:36] And he is very carefully.

Stuart Wellington

[42:40] I like that he described it as fish books for young people that nobody's read.

[42:45] That helps me paint a picture in my mind what he does.

S1

[42:48] I like the fact that at one point, I pointed it out, but, like, during the, he's like,

[42:54] Today we're going to be studying Alice in Wonderland is the book we're reading.

[42:59] And I'm like, what school studies Alice in Wonderland?

[43:03] Like.

Dan McCoy

[43:04] Yeah.

[43:04] As, like, as part of the curriculum.

[43:06] You know, like, it's.

[43:07] Usually it's something like, I don't know, like The Diary of Anne Frank or something like that.

[43:12] The Catcher in the Rye.

Stuart Wellington

[43:13] A separate piece.

[43:14] A separate bridge of Terabithia.

S1

[43:16] Who wants to.

[43:17] Like, what is there to learn out of the pedophilic Alice in Wonderland?

[43:21] Hey, hey, hey, hey.

[43:22] Oh, wow.

Dan McCoy

[43:22] Hey.

[43:23] I love Alice in Wonderland.

[43:24] Like, I think that the reason that schools don't teach it is it's too good.

[43:28] Like, there's no message in it.

[43:30] And that's what's great about it.

Stuart Wellington

[43:32] Yeah.

[43:33] Why aren't there all the CGI battles like in the movie?

Dan McCoy

[43:36] All right.

[43:37] All right.

[43:37] Back up, though.

[43:38] I was, what I was going to say was there's a scene where when Eugene Levy first comes in,

[43:43] he's very carefully folding a napkin.

[43:46] And the kid, Willie, has some of his ever-useful voiceover, which is always just saying something that we're already seeing on screen.

[43:55] Yeah, we can connect with him.

[43:56] And he's like, you ever have one of those moments where you just know you're not going to like your teacher?

[44:02] Like, it's very specific.

S1

[44:03] He's like, you ever had those moments where you realize your teacher is really weird?

[44:08] And I'm like, yeah, we got it.

[44:09] Like, he's weird.

[44:11] He's putting a sandwich on top of a napkin.

[44:13] Which is kind of anything but-

Dan McCoy

[44:16] But that was like the worst, like, but he's set up to be this, like, crazy teacher, but he never does anything that bad in the movie.

[44:22] Like, he's this failed children's book author who wants to get a picture of Gooby.

[44:28] And as you would if you see a giant bear.

[44:31] But he's not, like, doing anything evil at any point.

S1

[44:34] I would like to note, for some reason, I thought Gooby, when I first heard the name, I thought the character would be more, like, slimy, sticky, like, gooey.

Stuart Wellington

[44:42] Or, like, Gooby implies like-

[44:44] I believe at one point Gooby himself makes reference to his name sounds like snot.

[44:48] Oh, yes, he does.

[44:49] He does say that quite a few times throughout the movie.

[44:53] In another great scene that didn't matter at all.

S1

[44:58] There was a lot of-

[44:58] Yeah, a lot of the scenes in the movie have very little consequence to do with anything else in the rest of the movie.

Stuart Wellington

[45:06] Like the one where Gooby's just hanging out looking at child-drawn pictures.

[45:10] Yeah.

Dan McCoy

[45:11] Well, no, that had a consequence.

[45:13] He saw the picture and then he built a-

[45:15] The car.

[45:16] The box racer style car.

S1

[45:19] Oh, and then the car jumped over a chasm, which went right into traffic.

[45:25] And all the people in traffic, including Mr. Nerdlinger, saw Gooby in the goat cart fly overhead ET style.

[45:32] Yeah.

[45:33] And everybody was kind of amazed and, like-

Stuart Wellington

[45:36] It's like Gooby's on a collision course with this Nerdlinger fellow.

[45:39] Like there are two, like, opposing forces that are being drawn to each other.

[45:44] I'm sure there must be a-

[45:44] Magnets.

Dan McCoy

[45:45] I'm sure there must be a big payoff for that eventually, Stuart, right?

[45:47] Oh, there isn't.

Stuart Wellington

[45:49] Oh.

[45:49] But there's that scene where, at the end, he bends-

[45:52] Mr. Nerdlinger bends over and then gets picked up by a forklift, which prevents him from using his recently purchased disposable camera to take a picture of Gooby.

[46:02] Yeah.

[46:02] That he plans-

[46:03] He's closed.

[46:05] All the loose ends are all taken care of.

[46:08] It's like the ending of Animal House.

[46:09] We know exactly where every character's going.

Dan McCoy

[46:12] All right.

[46:12] So, we've actually talked a fair amount of time on Gooby, so I think we need to wrap it up.

[46:16] All right.

S1

[46:16] Now it's time for the DuckTales.

[46:18] We've picked its bones clean.

[46:20] It's time for-

[46:20] Did you ever see the episode of DuckTales?

[46:22] Wait.

[46:22] Where-

[46:23] Which one?

[46:23] Foot and Heart, Gone Gold, and Scrooge went for that competition of who has the most money,

[46:28] and they had to do it on the two scales.

[46:30] It's a two-parter.

[46:30] Yeah, yeah.

[46:31] Of course.

[46:31] That's a good episode.

[46:32] Yeah, it was a really good one.

[46:33] One-hour, Gone Gold.

[46:34] I love that.

[46:35] That's my favorite character.

[46:37] It's just the natural enemy of any Irish duck is the Scottish duck.

[46:43] Yeah.

Dan McCoy

[46:43] Well, you know, it's both characters created by Karl Barks, one of the greatest comics artists

[46:49] of the 20th century.

[46:53] You can read more about Karl Barks on the internet.

[46:57] Thanks.

Stuart Wellington

[46:57] Way to make it less fun.

[47:01] Brilliant cartoons.

[47:02] Brilliant cartoons.

[47:03] Sure.

[47:03] Still not as much fun as it was before.

[47:05] So what do we do at this point?

S1

[47:08] We want to tie up Gooby.

Stuart Wellington

[47:09] We talk about the DuckTales Nintendo game.

[47:12] Which is great.

[47:13] It's a really good one.

[47:13] You can hit diamonds with your game.

[47:16] Yep.

[47:17] And it's like the confidence bottle of video games.

[47:20] Because it's kind of easy.

[47:20] You can beat it.

[47:21] It makes you feel good.

Dan McCoy

[47:22] No, I just want to quickly do our final judgments.

[47:25] I got a leg cramp.

[47:26] Was this a good bad movie?

[47:27] I got a leg cramp somehow.

[47:28] A bad, bad movie?

[47:30] Or a movie you actually kind of liked?

[47:32] Andy, I'm going to take it over to you first.

S1

[47:36] I said this earlier.

[47:39] I feel like there are certain movies.

[47:41] I would watch a movie where I'm like, ooh, this is going to be bad.

[47:44] And I would watch it by myself.

[47:46] And there's this thought where I'm like, ugh.

[47:48] Why did I watch this movie by myself?

[47:50] It's just bad and boring.

[47:51] And I'm going to fall asleep kind of thing.

[47:54] This is kind of like, I don't know.

[47:57] I feel a little mixed about it.

[47:58] I think this was a fun movie to watch if you're going to watch it with friends.

[48:01] So it's kind of a good bad movie in that sense.

[48:04] Where if you're going to watch this with friends, this is pretty ideal.

[48:06] Because it's so wacky.

[48:08] And it has numerous moments that we mentioned that are worth seeing.

[48:12] And are stupid.

[48:13] But it's ultimately bad bad.

[48:15] Because it is kind of boring.

[48:18] Like, without.

[48:19] If you're going to.

[48:20] I think you might get questioned by your friends.

[48:23] You're like, ooh, I got a great good bad movie to show you.

[48:25] Yeah.

[48:25] And he pulled this out.

[48:26] So I'm going to have to go.

[48:31] I'm going to have to go with bad bad, I guess.

[48:33] Because I just didn't think it was.

[48:36] I mean, unless you see it with some people.

[48:38] And you're ready for an evening of fun.

Stuart Wellington

[48:40] Yeah, I think that's a fairly comprehensive response.

[48:43] I mean, it is pretty terrible.

[48:45] I think I made more of an effort than I have in the past with really shitty movies.

[48:49] I tried not to spend too much time surfing the internet.

[48:55] There was only like a 15 minute span.

[48:57] There was a point.

[48:58] Yeah, I know.

S1

[48:58] There was a point you did surf the internet a little bit.

Stuart Wellington

[49:00] Yeah, well, I have to, you know.

S1

[49:02] But to your credit, Dan checked the internet too himself.

Stuart Wellington

[49:06] But it was all Gooby related.

[49:08] I was looking at movie reviews of Gooby.

[49:10] Some people said it was great family fun.

[49:12] They were wrong.

[49:13] They are liars.

[49:15] Those people are on dope.

Dan McCoy

[49:17] So you're saying you kind of liked it a little bit.

[49:20] No, I didn't like it.

Stuart Wellington

[49:22] No, thanks.

[49:23] Thanks, Dan, for making me watch Gooby.

[49:25] Skyline and Gooby.

[49:26] Punch my mom in the face, maybe.

Dan McCoy

[49:29] I'm going to give this one a marginal good bad movie.

[49:32] Okay.

[49:32] Because you suggested it.

[49:34] I'm probably grading on a curve at this point.

[49:36] Sure.

[49:37] But compared to a lot of movies that we've watched where it's just boring and it's just mediocrity is what makes it bad.

[49:44] This is very ill conceived.

[49:46] There's a lot about this movie that is just wrong on all levels.

[49:50] And it's easy to watch because it's on Netflix.

[49:54] Watch instantly.

[49:55] You can dial it up tonight.

Stuart Wellington

[49:56] Pop it into your queue.

[49:59] Click on watch it now.

Dan McCoy

[50:01] Sure.

[50:02] Okay.

[50:02] It's more accurate than your previous explanations of how Netflix works.

[50:08] All right.

[50:08] So now let's do our final segment, which is what's a good movie that we would like to recommend?

[50:15] A movie that's not Gooby.

[50:19] Let's let Andy start.

S1

[50:21] Well, I actually have two and a half.

[50:26] Do it.

[50:27] Do it.

[50:28] Make up for me.

[50:29] So because I love bad movies.

[50:32] And this was a ball, by the way.

[50:34] I had a great time.

[50:35] I had a really great time.

[50:37] Thank you for having me, by the way.

[50:38] No problem.

[50:40] And I'm sorry for laughing so much because this was a lot of fun and peaking.

[50:45] And I'm sorry for the listener who had to take their earbuds out periodically and be like,

Stuart Wellington

[50:49] Oh, God damn.

[50:50] What's with that guy?

S1

[50:51] They don't have to do that anyway.

[50:53] But so because this is the Flophouse and you guys do good, good, bad movies or you're looking for good, bad movies, I'm going to recommend one.

[51:02] Which is Sinbad of the Seven Seas.

[51:06] Or I think it's called Sinbad.

[51:08] It has Lou Ferrigno in it.

[51:10] That is probably one of my favorite good, bad movies of all time.

[51:15] I don't think a lot of people know about it.

[51:18] It is truly awful.

[51:19] And I feel like there's a point in the movie where the audio to the movie was lost.

[51:23] And they had to supplement it with horrible, tedious narration.

[51:28] The acting is bad.

[51:30] The score is bad.

[51:31] The story is bad.

[51:33] It's just so bad all around.

[51:36] And there's so many memorable parts to it.

[51:39] It's really worth watching.

[51:40] So if you are a bad movie aficionado, I would say go see this if you haven't seen it already.

[51:47] It is probably really worth seeing.

[51:49] I don't know if anyone's recommended it on the show yet.

[51:51] No, but it is a good one.

[51:53] It is a really great one.

[51:54] I'm not surprised that it has not reached.

[51:57] It should reach like Troll 2 or The Room status.

[51:59] But it has so many great ones.

[52:02] Big words.

[52:03] Yeah.

[52:05] But then my second recommendation is just kind of a genuine movie that I didn't enjoy in an ironic way.

[52:13] And I don't think it got as much play.

[52:16] And if you like Coen Brothers movies, I recommend A Serious Man.

[52:20] I really enjoyed that movie a lot.

[52:22] I thought it was good.

[52:23] Jewish friends of mine have told me they thought it was too Jew-y.

[52:28] Interesting.

[52:30] Self-hating.

[52:32] A lot of Jewish friends were like, I thought that movie was too Jew-y.

[52:35] But maybe because I didn't grow up Jewish, I thought it was thoroughly entertaining.

[52:40] You converted is what you're saying.

[52:41] I converted culturally and comedically.

[52:44] Yeah.

[52:44] Because.

[52:45] It was just Jew-y enough for you.

[52:47] I don't know what it was.

[52:47] I really enjoyed it because I think there's a thing where it's like, ooh, I'm learning so much about Jewish culture by watching this movie.

[52:54] But it's a really, I think it, I was very entertained by it.

[52:57] I really like it.

[52:58] And it's very, I think in one of the podcasts you guys were talking about, you're like, I kind of want my Coen Brothers movies to be more Coen Brothers-esque.

[53:08] And this is very Coen Brothers-esque.

[53:09] It's very Coen-y.

Stuart Wellington

[53:10] Yeah.

[53:11] Coen-y.

[53:13] And thus less likely to receive enough critical attention.

[53:17] Yeah.

[53:17] The more mainstream one.

S1

[53:18] It didn't get a lot of attention when it came out, right?

[53:22] Yeah.

Dan McCoy

[53:22] I mean, it was very well received critically, but it was not like a hit in a way that.

[53:28] Right.

[53:29] No Country for Old Men before it or True Grit after it.

S1

[53:32] But I really liked it.

[53:33] I watched it again.

[53:35] I still thought it was pretty entertaining.

[53:36] And there's parts of it I just think are just like fun just to watch.

[53:41] And it's just the acting is really well done.

[53:44] And I just watched The King's Speech last night and I thought that was all right too.

Dan McCoy

[53:50] By the way, I want to make it clear that I didn't forget the existence of Burn After Reading, which actually came directly after No Country for Old Men.

[53:57] But I was just talking about Coen hits.

S1

[54:00] I have yet to see that, but I heard.

Dan McCoy

[54:03] I loved that movie actually.

[54:04] I think that movie is like a really good.

[54:07] It's actually a good companion piece to like The Big Lebowski.

[54:10] It's like a more cynical version of that.

[54:12] Like the Lady Killers?

[54:15] No.

[54:16] Stuart, what were you going to recommend?

[54:18] You were chomping at the bit.

Stuart Wellington

[54:19] No, no, no.

[54:20] I can't think of anything this week.

[54:22] Like I would probably just – what I would normally do in a situation like this is just fall back on like a tried and true favorite like telling people they should go watch Dead Heat again or possibly The Invisible Man.

[54:34] Right.

[54:35] Or maybe go watch movie trailers on Movie Trailers On Demand and scoff at them for a while like I like to do.

[54:43] But yeah, I can't think of anything offhand since I've been watching a lot of television in some movies, which is pretty lame I will admit.

[54:51] So what do you have to recommend today, Dan?

Dan McCoy

[54:54] Oh, so if you're passing.

Stuart Wellington

[54:56] Yeah, I'll pass.

Dan McCoy

[54:57] This has never been a thing before, but apparently Stuart's passing.

Stuart Wellington

[55:01] No, I mean I could – have I recommended Fantasy Mission Force before with Jackie Chan?

[55:07] Because I should recommend Fantasy Mission Force if I haven't.

[55:10] Okay, fair enough.

[55:11] Because it's shockingly violent at times and it rewrites history in a strange way.

[55:16] We're in World War II, I believe.

[55:18] The general for the American forces is Abraham Lincoln.

[55:23] Nice.

[55:24] And he gets captured by the Chinese or maybe – no, maybe the Japanese.

[55:28] And then a team is – this awesome team is assembled to save the generals of the Allied Powers.

[55:34] And in the process they fight hopping vampires, this weird cabal of female warriors who attack you with tennis balls with like strings on them.

[55:45] And then it culminates in a battle against a road warrior style gang.

[55:51] And almost all the good guys get murdered horribly, including a guy getting killed by a spear up his ass.

[55:58] So Fantasy Mission Force, it's awesome.

[56:01] That sounds amazing.

[56:02] You had a great recommendation.

[56:04] I just thought I'd recommend it before.

[56:06] That blows my mind out of the water.

[56:07] I totally recommend it.

Dan McCoy

[56:10] Yeah, I don't – I haven't watched a lot either.

[56:12] So I'm going to recommend something not overlooked at all because it got a Best Picture nomination this last year.

[56:20] Toy Story 3.

[56:21] I recently watched Winter's Bone.

[56:24] Okay.

[56:24] And that was – I was going to say I had delight from start to finish.

[56:29] But that's not a good way of describing Winter's Bone.

[56:33] I mean it's kind of a bleak movie in some ways.

S1

[56:35] Well, unless you saw the porn version, which is Winter's Boner.

[56:38] Woo.

Stuart Wellington

[56:40] Hey.

[56:41] That was –

[56:41] Check out this guy.

[56:43] It was another –

S1

[56:43] Have you been sitting on that all night?

[56:45] No, I – wait until you hear the joke I've been sitting on all night.

[56:49] Sure.

Dan McCoy

[56:49] We'll close with that.

[56:51] But –

[56:52] No, Winter's Bone.

Stuart Wellington

[56:55] So you had some laughs.

[56:56] Enjoyed it.

[56:57] It was good.

[56:58] Chomped some popcorns.

Dan McCoy

[56:59] You know, like there's been a real renaissance in sort of hillbilly crime recently between this and the television show Justified.

[57:10] Sure.

[57:12] And Cop.

[57:12] Justified is heavier on the genre elements and this is more of like just a drama about people living in the Ozarks and it's kind of like – it has genre stuff to kind of like make it go down a little easier.

[57:29] But ultimately the crime stuff doesn't really matter so much as the character stuff in Winter's Bone.

[57:35] But it's just a beautiful movie, beautifully acted.

Stuart Wellington

[57:39] It's like a crime mix-em-up is what you're saying, like a Guy Ritchie movie.

[57:42] Not at all.

[57:44] Okay.

[57:44] So Dan recommended a Guy Ritchie movie.

[57:47] I recommended an early Jackie Chan feature.

[57:50] And we got A Serious Man and what was –

S1

[57:52] Sinbad.

[57:53] Sinbad.

[57:54] That's a good one.

[57:54] And –

[57:55] Blue Frick knows Sinbad.

Dan McCoy

[57:56] Andy, what's this joke you've been sitting on?

S1

[57:58] Oh, I guess toward the end of the podcast I just wanted to say it is Tuesday and we saw Gooby and all I wanted to say is goodbye Gooby Tuesday.

[58:10] Oh, excellent.

[58:12] On that note, I've been Dan McCoy.

Stuart Wellington

[58:16] I've been Stuart Wellington.

S1

[58:17] I have been sitting in for Elliot Kalin and I'm Andy Rocco.

[58:22] Good night, everyone.

[58:23] Gooby Tuesday.

[58:24] Gooby Tuesday.

Stuart Wellington

[58:27] That is a good one.

S1

[58:33] I'm going to write a Flop House Insider.

[58:35] Sure.

[58:36] That just be like –

[58:37] An expose.

[58:38] Yeah, just before the show started.

[58:39] McCoy and Wellington quibbled.

[58:42] Sure.

[58:42] Like old lovers.

[58:44] Yeah.

[58:45] That's how we quibble, I guess.

[58:47] Like elderly lovers.

[58:48] Where's the soup?

[58:50] I want soup.

[58:52] Okay.

Stuart Wellington

[58:53] And three.

[58:54] Soup meaning sex.

[58:55] Two.

[58:56] Two.
