EP. 359.5 — Last Looks: Dream A Little Dream

[00:00:00] Paul Scheer: Is it a possession or a body swap? And what’s BS in movies? All this and more on a brand new How Did This Get Made Last Looks! Hit the theme.

[00:00:12] Music: [Intro Song]

[00:00:16] Paul Scheer: James! Projector! James, the projector is broken again. Oh my God. I am so sorry about this folks. Our projector repair guy, James Acaster was supposed to fix that problem, but I guess, I dunno, he just hightailed it back to the UK right after our show.

[00:00:32] And don’t try to unpack the logic of what we just tried to do there, because this is an audio medium and if James Acaster left after the show, who was I yelling at? People, this is entertainment. It’s not supposed to be analyzed. Okay. Anyway, how are you? I’m Paul Scheer and welcome to How Did This Get Made Last Looks. That’s right. This is the show where you, the listener get to voice your issues on Dream a Little Dream, a movie that discord user Scully thinks should have had the tagline, “Dream a little dream. Double your Corey’s, double your confusion.” I like it. I like it. It’s solid. I look, I’m always going to go all in on a double mint gum reference.

[00:01:14] Is it a little bit too old for our age group? Uh, who knows? Some of you get it, some of you don’t. But if you’ve never heard of double mint gum, do yourself a favor, go to YouTube, Google some double mint gum commercials. You’re going to see some wonderful work by, uh, the top, uh, twins in the biz. Not just a set, multiple sets of twins, the double mint gum, double your pleasure, double your fun.

[00:01:35] Anyway, thank you, Scully, for that tagline. Remember, if you have an alt movie tagline or title, submit it to us on our discord, and we might just read it here on the show. Double mint gum ones definitely get preferential treatment. Anyway, coming up on today’s episode, we’ll be hearing all your corrections and omissions on Dream a Little Dream.

[00:01:55] We have a brand new segment. We’ll be introducing in the show in just a little bit. Jason will stop by for a classic just chat all about the TV and movies that we are currently loving. And as a reminder to you, one of the things that we are loving is our friend, Joe Mandy’s brand new special on Hulu, it is coming up and we want to give you a little taste of it right now.

[00:02:18] So Scott. Play the clip.

[00:02:21] Joe Mandy: This next joke, I’m gonna apologize before I do it. Cuz, I’ll admit, it was written from a very cis hetero perspective. So, buckle up. For straight women, Tall is boobs.

[00:02:41] Here’s what I mean. Women treat tall men with the exact same level of superficiality. The exact same, like, brain dead tractor beam energy that men treat big breasted women. And it’s fucked up. We have to talk about this, you know? We have to have a national conversation. It’s not okay. All you have to do is watch one episode of that show, The Bachelorette.

[00:03:05] She goes on a date, it cuts to her interview, and she’s like, Oh my God, Preston’s incredible. He’s so handsome. He’s so funny. He’s got a great smile and he’s tall. And I love that he’s tall because my dad is tall. So I’m just used to tall men. You know, we’ve been conditioned to think that’s an okay, acceptable thing to say out loud.

[00:03:31] It is not. It’s fucking psychotic. Imagine if The Bachelor acted that way. It cuts to his interview. He’s like, yeah dude, Kelly was cool as hell. Like, she’s really cute. Uh, she’s fucking stacked. Did you see that holy shit, I was looking at him all night like god damn they’re huge They’re so huge and I like that.

[00:03:52] I like that, you know, uh Yeah, because my mom has fat tits, you know I like that makes me feel safe.

[00:04:02] Paul Scheer: Just a reminder Chill premieres on hulu on december 13th. You’re not gonna want to miss it Joe Is, uh, one of, uh, my favorite funny people, Emmy award winning Joe Mandy. You’re going to love it. It’s a great, great, great special.

[00:04:17] Uh, plus I want to let you know, I’ll know that we have tons and tons of sales. That’s right. We have Team Sanity, Team Fred pint glasses in the Pod Swag store. We also have exclusive autographed, Joyful Recollections of Trauma books with A Castle McQuade bookmark in them. You couldn’t get that castle McQuade bookmark unless you bumped into me. Now, as part of my holiday gift to you, you can purchase an autograph book with a, How Did This Get Made personalization and a Castle McQuaid bookmark. Oh boy. Oh boy. But if that’s not enough for you, you want to personalize book. If you hear this before December 10th, just go to my website and I will hook you up with anything you want.

[00:04:59] You tell me what to write. I will write it. It will be personalized and will be sent out on December 10th. Just go to Chevalier’s bookstore or my website. And you’ll figure it all out. We’re also going to reveal next week’s movie, which is going to be a good one. And speaking of that. It’s now time for me to mention the, How Did This Get Made holiday live stream show on December 12th.

[00:05:20] That’s right. We are bringing back the old kroner self, Jessica St. Claire to talk about a great film, a classic Christmas movie that you’ve never heard of. Tickets are on sale now at How Did This Get Made. Com. That’s HDTGM. com. Uh, I believe it’s a little cheaper if you buy it before the show starts. I’m not sure about that.

[00:05:39] I could be totally lying. Could I check? Maybe, but not now. I don’t have time for it. Uh, but here’s the thing. You can watch a show from around the world and you can watch it seven days after the event. So if you miss the live stream, you can watch it at your leisure. All right. So people, I gotta tell you, we’ve been doing this show for a very long time and very rarely do we add in a new segment, but today, before we dive into corrections and omissions, I want to announce that today we are tackling that is a pet peeve of mine, and I am talking about those BS trends in movies.

[00:06:14] That’s right. We’re going to be breaking down all the things that we think are BS in movies. This segment is brought to you by Midas. And the reason why we’re talking about BS trends. Is because when it comes to car care, there’s a ton of BS out there. I mean, that’s bad service. Of course. Now Midas provides an auto experience without the BS from oil changes to tires with Midas, you can get reliable service that you can trust.

[00:06:39] All right. Let’s talk about things that we don’t like in movies. You know what? I don’t like in movies. When there’s a misunderstanding that lasts for days, most rom coms are built on, uh, just somebody, uh, accidentally overhearing something and then, uh, they change their entire life and they should have said, oh wait, did you say that I should buy a car, or did you say that I won’t go far, and then because they didn’t go far, they changed their whole life and they become like this Australian biker, anyway, that might have just been a Steve Guttenberg movie, but you know what I’m talking about.

[00:07:10] No more misunderstandings. I hate misunderstandings. Just clarify yourself, all right? Eh, you know, and then um, this is an old school thing, but we don’t see people say goodbye. People never say goodbye on the phone. No, they just hang up. Another one. Who has time for these breakfasts? Every time I see a movie, people are, the spread is amazing.

[00:07:28] What time are you getting up? Three in the morning to get a spread that good? I, on Christmas, I’m trying to make a spread that good. I, I have to, it takes me hours and days. This is like a normal day. Somebody comes down at breakfast is ready. All of a sudden, it’s like a movie where it’s like 12 kids, a cheaper by the dozen reboot or whatever it is.

[00:07:43] There’s too much. Pour some cereal. Uh, you know, uh, you know, the other thing that gets me the baguette the baguette in the bag Oh everyone who goes shopping gets a baguette. Come on. No one’s eating that many baguettes. Okay, other thing I That I I I don’t like cgi babies. All right. I don’t like these puppet babies I don’t like cgi babies. Use the real thing.

[00:08:05] I don’t care that they shouldn’t be on camera. I want more real babies in movies if I want to go see Yoda. I go see Yoda. I want, I want real babies in my movies. If I’m seeing it on the big screen, save the fake babies and the puppet babies for Netflix. But if I’m seeing a movie on the big screen, you give me a real baby.

[00:08:23] Give me that real baby. Just like Jason says. All right. Those are just some of the BS trends that I have noticed. In movies. And you know what? I challenge you to tell me some of your BS trends. What are the things that you are sick and tired of in movies? Give me a call at 6 1 9 P A U L A S K. That’s 6 1 9 Paul Ask, but you’re going to be Paul telling me what the BS trends are.

[00:08:43] And I will play some of my favorite calls. Thanks again to Midas for sponsoring this segment. Of BS in movies. I can’t wait to hear from you on our next Last Looks episodes. So you can air your grievances. It’s just not me yelling. And remember, don’t let yourself get taken for a ride. When you bring your car in for service, turn into Midas for a straightforward, transparent communication about what you need for your vehicle maintenance.

[00:09:04] It’s time to get automobile services tailored to your actual needs and say goodbye to the BS. Welcome to auto care. Without bad service, visit Midas. com for a location near you.

[00:09:17] All right. Welcome back. Last week, we talked at length about Dream a Little Dream. We had questions and we might’ve even missed a few things.

[00:09:24] Here is your chance to set us straight. Fact check us, if you will. You can do it. It’s the internet. Internet is built to tell people that they are wrong. And now you can do that to us. It is now time for corrections and omissions.

[00:09:39] Music: [Corrections and Omissions Song]

[00:09:47] Paul Scheer: Thank you, Andrew Winston, for that theme song. All right. We are going to go to the Discord. Johnny Unusual writes,

[00:09:54] “Here is an explanation for why Corey Haim’s character was given a limp. And the explanation in the film is pretty close to the truth. Wikipedia says four days before filming, Corey Haim broke his leg and Dinger’s character had to be rewritten to include the injury. While his actual cast was removed during filming, he had to wear a fake one for the remainder of the production. In the movie, Dinger says that his mother hit him with her car. In real life, Haim broke his leg while trying to teach his mom how to ride a motorbike. She couldn’t use the brakes, ran into the side of the wall. And broke her nose and Corey’s leg.”

[00:10:28] Okay. I knew this. I thought I brought it up. Maybe we edited it for time. Oh, wait. I see what you’re saying. They had to remove his cast during the middle of filming and they had to put a fake one on to complete the film. And well, here’s the thing. I never saw Corey Haim be believable in that cast.

[00:10:43] I think the whole story is BS. Shout out to our previous segment. Yes, I believe that Corey Haim never broke his leg. Um, and if he did break his leg, his sense memory is terrible because it doesn’t look like he remembers what it was like to have a broken leg. All right. Next up, Del Preston writes

[00:11:04] “Meredith joked about the choreography in the episode, but I checked the credits and there are two choreographers listed Tony Fields and Get ready for it, Corey Feldman. Yes fell dog was actually credited as a choreographer I do want to make it known that I didn’t say Feld dog. I appreciate you saying fell dog Dell. Of course, he was credited the man did a Michael Jackson dance that was truly superb. I mean, it’s funny because you look at that and you go. Well, he just is ripping off Michael Jackson but it’s still impressive. I mean, did he choreograph that or did he steal it from Michael Jackson? And if you stole something from Michael Jackson, can you still be credited as a choreographer?

[00:11:45] I guess the answer is yes. Um, also Dell wants to note that

[00:11:50] “Corey Feldman did not sing Dream a Little Dream in the end credits. Nope. That was Mel Torme and Mickey Thomas, who Meredith did mention, played the teacher and was the lead singer of Jefferson Starship.”

[00:12:00] Oh, come on. Really? You’re not even givin me Feldog singin? Meltorm, I like Meltorm, you know what, give Jason Robards and Corey Haim some singing lessons and let them sing that end credit theme, I mean, where is their, their Will Smith ism, right, you gotta get in there, you can’t just dub that, I’m mad, I’m mad.

[00:12:22] All right, Grammys and the T Rex, writes,

[00:12:25] “I love the joke about Alex Rocco and Victoria Jackson’s age gap, but I think your math was slightly off. You said that Rocco was 53 and Jackson was 30 years old at the time of the shoot. Then you subtracted Feltman’s age of 18 from each parent’s age to deduce that Jackson would have been 12 years old and Rocco 41 at the time of birth. However, Rocco would have been 35 years old, not 41. I know the numbers don’t matter that much and it’s still gross and problematic and your point still stands.”

[00:12:56] Well, if my point stands, then why did you even bring it up, Grammys? I appreciate your correction there. Thank you for correcting that. I don’t know how I did that, but I am terrible at math. And honestly, I’m not surprised. Uh, my son tries to get me to do math homework and it’s, it’s not, it’s not a good look for me. He loses respect for me. I have to stay out of the kitchen during those moments. All right. Um, John, not Connor chimes in on the age discourse. Oh boy. Everyone’s coming after me about this age thing.

[00:13:25] “I bet Victoria Jackson’s hair curlers were intended to make her look old enough to actually be Corey Feldman’s mother.”

[00:13:32] I mean, yeah, I guess that good point, but seriously, was Nora done busy? I mean, was anyone busy? There are women that are older than 30 or men younger than, uh, than Alex Rocco to have done this. These weren’t plum parts. Yeah. These are his side characters. I mean, they’re not even really funny side characters. They’re just really just like, you know, yeah. Why, why did they need to cast those parts up? I mean, was it even cast? I mean, Alex Rocco probably was a cast up at that point. I don’t know if Victoria Jackson was, was she on SNL at that point?

[00:14:04] I guess she was. Anyway. A waste of casting. Dr. Guts 1003 writes,

[00:14:09] “Is it possible that there wasn’t even a dormant swap between Laney and Gina, but rather that Laney’s inability to recall things like her locker number and the dance routine are simply the result of being repeatedly roofied by her mother and Ron?”

[00:14:23] Dr. Guts. You got the goods. Yes, this woman is being roofied all the time and is having short term memory loss. Oh boy, we’ve uncovered something big here. Firebird writes,

[00:14:35] “I think this movie could have at least made the old man and woman be in a coma while Coleman and Bobby were having to work together to figure out whose body Gina is inhabiting. And instead of Bobby playing a prank that renders the entire plot of the movie pointless, they are racing against Coleman and Gina’s declining health in the hospital, so they aren’t stuck together forever.”

[00:14:56] Now, honestly Firebird, that is the way to do this movie, not put them in some Dream Dimension, some Inception Nolan bullshit where they are, I don’t like it.

[00:15:07] That would have been so much easier. Firebird continues and says,

[00:15:09] “Maybe that’s all in the Corey cut. We release the Corey cut.”

[00:15:13] That should have been the shirt. I mean, it would have been the shirt until James projector. Johnny Unusual is back again.

[00:15:18] “This is not a body swap movie. A swap implies an exchange as far as I can tell. Jason Robards disappears. So this is a possession movie. Yes. Corey Feldman is possessed though, based on his acting. He spends a lot of the time completely forgetting this fact.”

[00:15:34] Yes, Johnny. Good point. Corey Feldman does not embody Jason Robards at all. And wow, the hits keep on coming. I mean, I was ready to give it to Dr. Guts, but now between Firebird, Johnny Unusual people are just firing off fact after fact. Um, IQ Weinhut writes,

[00:15:51] “Roger Ebert created something called the, uh, Stanton Walsh rule, which stated that no movie featuring either Harry Dean Stanton or M. Emmett Walsh in a supporting role can be altogether bad. Now, I think that Harry Dean Stanton in Dream a Little Dream was the first time that this rule was was broken with the second being M Emmett Walsh in Wild Wild West.”

[00:16:13] Wow. We have the unique distinction of doing the two rule breakers in the Roger Ebert, Stanton Walsh rule. Not something I take with a lot of pride. Uh, wow. So many great corrections and omissions this week, but there can only be one winner, one that is the best, uh, one that truly is mind blowing and, you know, honestly.

[00:16:36] So many of you came in really, really hot, everything about, I mean, I’ll even go back to saying that Grammys and the T Rex, even the correction, it was a good one, Del Preston, breaking it down, everybody, everyone bringing it to the table, but I gotta say, Johnny Unusual, not only because Johnny Unusual submitted twice, But Johnny Unusual calling out the one mistake that we made repeatedly time and time again.

[00:17:06] This is not a body swap movie. This is a possession movie must be the winner for this week because that reconceptualizes the entire film. And that’s why. Our good friend, Johnny Unusual is the winner and you get nothing, but you do get this amazing song from Katie Maris. Hit it!

[00:17:31] Music: [Winner’s Song]

[00:17:33] Paul Scheer: I love that song, Katie!

[00:17:47] Aces, aces on that song. Now, remember, if you want to submit a song to us, email your theme to HowDidThisGetMade@Earwolf.Com. Please keep them short. 15 to 20 seconds is best. And if you want to chime in with your own thoughts about the latest episode, hit up the discord at Discord.gg/HDTGM, or call us at 619-PAUL-ASK.

[00:18:06] All right. Coming up after the break, Jason will stop by to chat about all the TV and movies that we are currently loving and binging. We’ll be right back.

[00:18:15] All right. Welcome back, baby. By now. I’m sure you’ve noticed that every Monday we re release old How Did This Get Made episodes back into our feed.

[00:18:22] This last week’s episode, we talked about the Hugh Jackman and Meg Ryan rom com Kate and Leopold. And next week we’re talking with one of our all stars. That’s right. Casey Wilson is joining us to discuss. Harry and Meghan, a royal romance. Yes, we are bringing out some of the classics from the back catalog every Monday, so keep on checking out all of our replays.

[00:18:45] You are going to find some true gems in there. All right. Without any further ado, it is time to just chat with Jason. And before I even do that, um, I want to say that this was recorded before Jason and I went on tour on the East coast with Dinosaur and wow, you all were fantastic audiences. We played in Boston, New York, and DC.

[00:19:07] The shows were awesome. The crowds were electric. Uh, we had amazing guests like Edie Patterson and Chloe Trost and Rob Hubel. And it was just a great, great time. Thank you so much. We are going to be in San Francisco on February 2nd, I believe. Uh, so check that out if you are in San Fran and more tour dates are coming. All right, people without any further ado, let’s start chatting with a little something I like to call just chat.

[00:19:52] Jason, welcome back. It’s December.

[00:19:55] Jason Mantzoukas: Oh yeah, whoop!

[00:19:57] Paul Scheer: Holiday season is upon us.

[00:20:00] Jason Mantzoukas: Oh, I’ve started my Gilmore Girls advent calendar that you gave me. Thank you so much.

[00:20:04] Paul Scheer: I’m so happy it’s there. I have, um, we’re doing a bunch of different advent calendars at the house. We have a Star Wars Lego advent calendar that’s opening for my kid. We have an NBA advent calendar for my other kid. Uh, and then the family advent calendar is a National Lampoon’s Christmas vacation. Uh, I think. Yeah, we are.

[00:20:22] Jason Mantzoukas: Is that a movie you’ve all seen it? The boys seen that movie? Okay, great.

[00:20:26] Paul Scheer: Yes, we love. I mean, are.

[00:20:27] Jason Mantzoukas: What are your traditional Christmas or holiday watches rather?

[00:20:31] Paul Scheer: Well, I’m going to say this and it’s, it’s, uh, it’s one of them involves June. It’s called Eight Bit Christmas. June is in it and the kids love it.

[00:20:39] Jason Mantzoukas: I’ve seen it.

[00:20:39] Paul Scheer: Not even because June is in it. I think because of video games and whatever it is. So, but the ones that we go to, uh, on the reg, yeah. Home Alone, Home Alone 2, uh, Elf, and National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. Those are heavy rotation, rewatch, go back through them. Uh, those are kind of our, I would think, family phase. That’s our bedrock. Kid does, kids do like. Uh, I’m in one. June is in one. Uh, and. Depending on the moment, they, they definitely like 8 Bit Christmas a lot, but then last year, they liked my movie a little bit more than June’s movie.

[00:21:17] I did a movie called Family Switch, which is a body switch movie that just happens to take place at Christmas. Um, and, um, I will tell ya, I don’t know if I told you this, Jason, at the last, uh, Dinosaur show. Um, a young man, nice young man came up to me and uh, and said to me, I, uh, I’m your biggest fan. And I said, oh my gosh, well thank you so much.

[00:21:38] And he said, uh, yeah, I’ve been following your career since Family Switch. Oh. And I said.

[00:21:43] Jason Mantzoukas: That is so cute. Love that.

[00:21:45] Paul Scheer: And at that point, not even a year, not even a year old at that point. And I said. Thank you, but I laughed because it felt like a bit. It felt like a bit that someone would do.

[00:21:53] Jason Mantzoukas: What a good joke.

[00:21:54] Paul Scheer: Yeah. And it was a, that was a funny joke. And, uh, but it was, it was very serious and I appreciated it. I did appreciate it. Uh, and, and embraced it a hundred percent.

[00:22:04] Jason Mantzoukas: That’s very sweet. And very cute.

[00:22:06] Paul Scheer: Yes. Uh, so that was a nice moment. Uh, but I do like to, uh, when last year when that movie came out, I like to, um, yell at the kids when I was dropping them off at carpool at other kids. They’re like, Oh, you’re in families. It’s like, get out of here. Hate you kids. I’m not even, that is not even really technically my character, but I do like to, I like to goose them.

[00:22:23] Jason Mantzoukas: Uh, yeah, they deserve it.

[00:22:25] Paul Scheer: Um, and you and I, we’re going to go see Sean Astin on Broadway doing a reenactment of, of Elf.

[00:22:31] Jason Mantzoukas: Yep. Can’t wait. Yep.

[00:22:33] Paul Scheer: Why are we doing this?

[00:22:34] Jason Mantzoukas: Why is this what it is? Why is this what Broadway is? You know what? I’ve never thought to myself. I wish I could see Elf on Broadway starring Samwise Gamgees. Never.

[00:22:46] Paul Scheer: I mean, I think it’s not, look, no offense to anyone who’s playing Elf, but all I will say is this, uh, Elf is so good because it’s Will Ferrell, right?

[00:22:57] Will Ferrell is. He is the reason, he is the reason why.

[00:23:00] Jason Mantzoukas: I guess I don’t think I need any, I mean, and this is just me. I don’t think I need any of these musicals of things I don’t need Back to the Future, the musical. I don’t need.

[00:23:09] Paul Scheer: I, I honestly, like what makes me angry about that. You would never say like, oh, well, Back to Future makes a great musical. Like you could say like, okay, maybe the bodyguard can translate into a musical. Elf, I don’t know. Why are we doing it? I don’t know why we’re taking the things that we like that are good and saying, let’s add music to it and then put it on.

[00:23:29] Jason Mantzoukas: Well, it does seem like they are caught in the same trap that we are in some ways, which is people would so much rather have something IP driven to try and build around rather than come up with new ideas. Like we just aren’t inside of new ideas. And I think on Broadway even more so. It does seem like for Broadway the last bunch of years it has really been revivals, or musical adaptations of nostalgic movies for people our age, specifically, Beetlejuice, Back to the Future.

[00:24:03] Paul Scheer: Who are like, I don’t like musicals, so, but if you give it to me, like, or theater, I will go if you give me that. I will go if Sean Astin plays Santa.

[00:24:12] Jason Mantzoukas: Is this all because of the producers? Is that the first, like, we wrote songs and put them into a Well, a movie from the past.

[00:24:19] Paul Scheer: I mean, well, the, the fact that The Producers even, uh, you know, like.

[00:24:23] Jason Mantzoukas: The Producers. Spam A Lot. Those were the two that I remember being like, why would they do this?

[00:24:28] Paul Scheer: Spam A Lot, at least I think creatively was trying to do something.

[00:24:33] Jason Mantzoukas: Sure.

[00:24:34] Paul Scheer: I think, again, I’m not sure. I’m not sure.

[00:24:37] Jason Mantzoukas: Who knows? Didn’t see it. Never stopped.

[00:24:38] Paul Scheer: Yeah. But now it’s, now it’s just like straight up. Like we’re just, I mean, the fact that The Producers is a movie that then became a musical that then became a movie on the musical is truly one of the craziest switches I’ve ever seen.

[00:24:53] Jason Mantzoukas: Oh yeah. Out of it’s insane.

[00:24:55] Paul Scheer: If we were living in a different time, the odd cup. Well, I guess The Odd Couple is a stage play became a TV show. They should have been going back on stage as a musical. I mean, it’s weird. It’s weird. And I, and I like, I like musicals, by the way, I saw when I was in New York, Oh, Mary. Um.

[00:25:10] Jason Mantzoukas: Oh, I’m gonna, I’m seeing it. Uh, Oh, by this time I will have seen it as well.

[00:25:15] Paul Scheer: Uh, you will. What a great what and that’s what that you know what that’s what we should be talking about. Yeah, great Great, if you’re in New York City, if you can go see it, that’s the fact that this is even existing on Broadway is exciting and different and fun.

[00:25:30] Jason Mantzoukas: Also, this is Cola Scola’s show. Yes And then I will also mention on YouTube Cole has a previous special that is up on YouTube. It’s like a half hour special. It’s called Our Home Out West.

[00:25:46] Paul Scheer: Okay, great.

[00:25:46] Jason Mantzoukas: Um, Our Home Out West. Uh, and that’s great too. And I, while we’re talking about YouTube, I will know we can keep going. We, if you’ve got anything else to shut out.

[00:25:55] Paul Scheer: No, shout it out.

[00:25:55] Jason Mantzoukas: You want to talk more about Oh, Mary?

[00:25:57] Paul Scheer: No, I don’t. Because I want people to see it and enjoy it for what it is. I didn’t know. I knew it was great and it succeeded. Yeah. In being great that’s that’s all i was having so much fun with it and it just you know it’s like i don’t know if you feel like this too it’s like it’s fun to feel inspired by people doing stuff that I because i think that there is a certain level of things that get made for it to be so interesting and weird and bizarre and get mainstream success that like that’s such a small needle to thread and the fact that he did that with it was like everything about it is inspiring but also it’s just.

[00:26:35] Like, you leave going like, Oh, I love it. I love everything. I love what we get to do.

[00:26:40] Jason Mantzoukas: It’s so great when something finds its moment. Yes. And is, and everybody like grabs onto it and rides the wave and is like, we’re all agreeing that we love this, you know? And it’s not, doesn’t feel like it was somehow predestined. It doesn’t feel like it was made to happen or it doesn’t feel manufactured. It feels like, Oh, Like a real grassroots event. It feels cool.

[00:27:05] Paul Scheer: It’s like people, if you trust them with cool things, they will actually, uh, enjoy it. And I think that that’s like the fun part. That’s the fun part of it all. Uh, really, really good. Um, well, we haven’t talked about what we’ve been watching.

[00:27:18] Jason Mantzoukas: I’ve been watching a bunch of stuff.

[00:27:20] Paul Scheer: Me too. I’m excited to hear what you got up.

[00:27:23] Jason Mantzoukas: Just a couple of quick things off the bat. Uh, there’s a new season of Chef’s Table out called Chef’s Table Noodles. That is terrific.

[00:27:29] Paul Scheer: Love it. Love it.

[00:27:30] Jason Mantzoukas: David Glp fantastic series, Chef’s Table, all the different spinoffs of it. This is a great one. Uh, Colin from Accounts season two, just absolutely dynamite, uh, Australian Romcom sitcom, uh, is so funny and so sweet and so fantastic. Um, Rivals. Have you watched any of Rivals?

[00:27:51] Paul Scheer: What’s Rivals?

[00:27:52] Jason Mantzoukas: It’s on Disney or it’s on Hulu. I can’t remember. It’s the same thing now. Yeah, it’s a British show. This is a wild show. It is so horny and so soapy. It feels like a throwback almost to a Falcon’s Crest or a Dynasty. Sort of in that it’s about like, Posh Brits living in the Cotswolds, you know, at a time in the eighties. And it’s all about like the rise of private, uh, private TV networks in the UK.

[00:28:21] Paul Scheer: Oh, wow.

[00:28:22] Jason Mantzoukas: But it’s all really about rich people fucking each other. And it’s so nuts. And it’s based off of these books and this, the 91 years old has adapted her horny sex filled books for TV. And it’s great. It’s just a blast. David Tennant is in it and is one of the parts. There’s a lot of people you’ll recognize from a lot of your favorite British shows. It’s just so fun. And like I said, it’s very soapy and very fluffy, but it’s a blast and it’s well worth getting into. Rivals.

[00:28:53] Paul Scheer: Okay. I am, I am into that in a major way. I would like to, I think I have to find these shows that I can watch with June. It’s hard.

[00:29:01] Jason Mantzoukas: I think she will love it.

[00:29:02] Paul Scheer: Okay. That’s, that’s a, that feels right.

[00:29:05] Jason Mantzoukas: It’s fun as hell.

[00:29:06] Paul Scheer: Okay.

[00:29:06] Jason Mantzoukas: You know, in a way that I think you will enjoy.

[00:29:08] Paul Scheer: I mean, I will continually tell you my Star Wars journey and say that now that my son loves Star Wars so much, June is now tortured by our family begging her to watch Star Wars and she’s like no.

[00:29:20] Jason Mantzoukas: Funny.

[00:29:21] Paul Scheer: No, she’s like you guys can go downstairs Like.

[00:29:23] Jason Mantzoukas: Oh my god.

[00:29:24] Paul Scheer: So we are often my son and I are often kicked downstairs to uh to watch stuff.

[00:29:30] Jason Mantzoukas: I love it have you watched? I’m sure you have. And if not, uh, you guys will love it. June as well. Um, Anatomy of a Lie.

[00:29:41] Paul Scheer: Yes.

[00:29:41] Jason Mantzoukas: The, uh, the Grey’s anatomy. True. Uh, true.

[00:29:45] Paul Scheer: Yes. That was amazing.

[00:29:48] Jason Mantzoukas: Yeah, that was fantastic.

[00:29:49] Paul Scheer: Uh, and, you know, look, there’s a great, we’ve talked about this and like these little lies. Right? Like these little lies that can balloon into something that is so unmanageable and there’s a part of me that feels like I have sympathy on some level, right? Like, you know, and I think that that’s the hard thing about this is like, I’m not gonna, I’m not gonna do it, but you can see how people, uh, Yeah, how this can kind of.

[00:30:15] Jason Mantzoukas: Carried away.

[00:30:16] Paul Scheer: Yeah.

[00:30:16] Jason Mantzoukas: Get carried away. And it’s so interesting. It’s so interesting. Also, it may be for us, especially because it’s it’s this is the story of a of a TV writer, a woman named Elizabeth Fitch. Yeah, Finch, a woman named Elizabeth Finch, who there’s a great Vanity Fair article that is about this, uh, this whole scandal.

[00:30:37] Um, and then that article has been adapted into a three part documentary, which is what we’re talking about. And it’s this woman who is a TV writer who ultimately becomes a writer on Grey’s Anatomy, but then this wild web of interconnected kind of white lies that just turn into straight up lies, all this stuff that just perpetrates and Permeates the, her entire life. And it is so interesting and such a strange story to follow.

[00:31:05] Paul Scheer: Oh yeah. Look, and I’ll tell you this. Uh, I’ve, I’ve been going into lies. I’ve been going into these, look, I tell you, June watches only murder, murder, murder.

[00:31:13] Jason Mantzoukas: That’s right.

[00:31:14] Paul Scheer: And, and we just stumbled upon another show. That’s a very interesting one. Uh, it’s not, it doesn’t have any, uh, Hollywood connection to it, but it’s called Family Secrets. It’s also on Peacock. I believe that one is on Peacock as well. The, the lies one. Um, And this is about, um, this girl who has gone missing and her sister later in life puts it together that her dad probably killed her and it’s this wild, they’ve never found her body. They, like, she just disappeared and like, and the father’s like, oh yeah, she ran away. It, there is some stuff in this and I won’t like overly explain it more than this, but it’s a good little, like, um, twist and a turn on this idea of, uh, a daughter who, like, I’ll give you this moment of it.

[00:32:05] At one point she says to her boyfriend, she’s like, do you think my dad had anything to do with my sister disappearing? And her boyfriend was like. Yeah, everyone thinks that, and she’s like, wait, what? And, and that kind of causes her to go and dig in. And I’m like, wow. Uh, yeah. So a really good, uh, an interesting story.

[00:32:28] Family Secrets, the disappearance of, uh, yeah.

[00:32:30] Jason Mantzoukas: All right. I’ll check that out.

[00:32:32] Paul Scheer: You know, there’s a, a podcast about a, uh, a crematorium. Have you heard about this?

[00:32:37] Jason Mantzoukas: No, not at all.

[00:32:38] Paul Scheer: It’s the Noble podcast. Um, and it’s, uh, so basically there’s a crematorium, uh, in Atlanta where, I mean, I guess the long story short is the machines at the crematorium stopped working and, um, and people running the crematorium, uh, just, you know, kind of started burying the bodies in the back.

[00:33:01] Um, they found.

[00:33:02] Jason Mantzoukas: You know, what this reminds me of is that cryogenic freezing scandal from, yeah, maybe that was 15 years ago. Was it this American life? They did a thing about it or. Somebody did a thing where it was similar, where all these people who paid all this money to have themselves frozen such that they could be unfrozen in the future when their illnesses could, all of the tanks failed. So all these people like thawed out and died.

[00:33:28] Paul Scheer: Oh, it is this, this story is wild because the way it kind of starts is a FedEx guy or somebody is like delivering a package and he goes around back and he drops out the package and then kind of just catches something out of his eye, which is like a, an arm coming out of a trash bag. And he calls the cops and the, you know, the guy, he’s like, you need a warrant to check it out the anyway, they come and they go, these machines haven’t worked in years and they find 339 bodies. Uh, and, and maybe even more because they don’t even, everything is mixed and matched at a certain point. But it’s a really interesting podcast because, you know, like that’s the sensational part of it. It, uh, but it also goes into family dynamics and things about why you might do this. And, um, interesting. So it’s called Noble.

[00:34:17] Jason Mantzoukas: That’s cool. And I was right. The one I was talking about is that this American life called Mistakes Were Made. And it’s about the failure of a cryogenics lab.

[00:34:25] Paul Scheer: Um, and again, small lies.

[00:34:27] Jason Mantzoukas: Oh, yeah.

[00:34:28] Paul Scheer: Right. You’re trying to do it right.

[00:34:30] Jason Mantzoukas: I’ll i’ll use this American Life as a pivot point for one of the my favorite movies that I’ve seen this year, which is a documentary called Flip Side.

[00:34:39] Paul Scheer: Um, what’s that?

[00:34:40] Jason Mantzoukas: Which is the guy who is a documentary filmmaker. Chris, uh, Wiltshire, I’m not gonna remember his last name.

[00:34:48] Uh, he also was the filmmaker behind This American Life, uh, when they did those few seasons at Showtime or wherever they did it, but regardless, a, uh, documentary filmmaker. Who then goes into, he becomes very successful directing commercials. And this is a documentary about himself and about his process.

[00:35:07] And I genuinely felt like the two movies this year that I have felt more seen by. There, there are, I should say there have been two movies this year that I have felt more seen by than in recent memory. One of which I talked about a while ago, a Blue Giant, the anime Blue Giant about jazz musicians. And this one, which is about artistic. Um, momentum and procrastination. And so the documentary is all about this guy who has all these opportunities and he starts to become wildly successful as a commercial director. And then he feels so creatively unfulfilled that he starts a documentary about a record store called Flipside Records, where he used to work in New Jersey when he was a teenager.

[00:35:52] But then what happens is, he kind of stops make 10 years go by and he starts so he stops making the documentary. He just all so the movie is a collection of footage of all these different documentaries and things. He started and abandoned all of this stuff. All of these projects that were meant to be his next big creative endeavor.

[00:36:15] His next big thing. All of this stuff that he put hours and energy and time into that just kind of then disappear and suddenly it’s 10 years later and he hasn’t been back and he has to, so he goes back. And so you get inside of this documentary, all of these peaks into all of these other little documentaries that could have been their own movie, but he just never finished them. So I think this, uh, I feel very connected to that inability to follow through and make decisions and finish a project.

[00:36:47] Paul Scheer: What is the name of it again?

[00:36:48] Jason Mantzoukas: Flip Side.

[00:36:49] Paul Scheer: Flip side. You know what that reminds me of? I know it’s similar. It’s different, but it’s similar. What was that documentary where the film student challenges his, his, uh, his film professor to remake his, his movie.

[00:37:01] Jason Mantzoukas: It’s not a film. It’s the Dogma guys. It’s, um, 10, uh, The Five Obstructions.

[00:37:10] Paul Scheer: So, yeah, it was where Jorgen Leth created this short film called The Perfect Human, starring a man and a woman sitting in a box while a narrator poses questions about their relationship and humanity. Years later, Lars Von Trier made a deal with Leth to remake the film five different times, each under a different set of circumstances.

[00:37:26] And, uh, with, uh, Von Trier’s strictly prescribed rules. And, uh, and each time he completes it, there’s a more elaborate challenge. It’s almost like a reality show meets a, uh, you know, but I think the idea from what I remember was Lars Von Trier wanted to get Jorgen Leth, uh, inspired again. Yeah. So by putting these things in front of him to, to make more, to actually like.

[00:37:49] Jason Mantzoukas: To problem solve. To have to, yes. Well, and this was also like the era when the Dogma, you know, manifesto went out, which was from those, uh, filmmakers that were all about these restrictions to filmmaking. You have to shoot with natural light. You can only, you know, there was all these kind of the Dogma Manifesto is worth looking at just as a, isn’t this interesting, a way to give filmmakers problems that might inevitably through trying to circumvent those problems, create interesting solutions.

[00:38:21] Paul Scheer: Well, I think that that’s always something for me where I’m, I’m always excited when you have to make something and you, you are content or you are, you believe like, well, there’s only one way to do it and then you can’t for whatever reason.

[00:38:32] And then you, and sometimes the best stuff comes up, whether that’s even in casting or location availability. It’s, it really is always, uh, I mean, like you, you kind of talked about that when you were working on John Wick, right? Cause it wasn’t, it just started to rain. Yeah. So like, oh fuck, well. It’s gonna rain.

[00:38:45] Jason Mantzoukas: Oh, it always rains. It always rains, you know, and and whether or not it if it started raining great There was never a oh, oh bummer, you know, like yeah. Yeah. Yeah, just using all of it They that production unfazed always like nothing happened that they seemed unable to kind of pivot and I never saw a massive production be that at ease, that calm, you know, for so many moving parts and so much, frankly, dangerous stuff, stunts and stuff.

[00:39:16] So for everybody to be so calm. And so, which makes it makes everybody feel safer. It makes everybody feel better, you know, because when a set is like, oh, I’ll grind it up because, oh, we’ve got this big stunt today. Everybody’s freaked out. And everybody there was like preparation. It was, yeah, just being ready for it and, and malleable and able to pivot.

[00:39:37] Paul Scheer: What else are you watching?

[00:39:39] Jason Mantzoukas: Um, I’m going to run down some pretty fun shows. I’m like, I’m still in my, I want to watch people solve a mystery. So one of my favorites, we, we both love the Kings. Elzbeth season two is out.

[00:39:52] Paul Scheer: Uh, great.

[00:39:53] Jason Mantzoukas: Carrie Preston’s fantastic show. Great. Our friend, Rob Riggle was in an episode and was fantastic. Um, I’m really loving, um, High Potential, the Caitlyn Olsen, um, Drew Goddard show, um, adaptation.

[00:40:06] Paul Scheer: Wait a minute, is that drew Goddard?

[00:40:07] Jason Mantzoukas: Drew Goddard, yeah. Drew Goddard adapted it from, I can’t remember, uh, it’s a foreign, they’ve done it someplace else, I can’t remember where. Uh, that shows a blast. Um, I’m a sucker. I’m in my Leslie Manville era right now.

[00:40:20] Paul Scheer: Okay.

[00:40:21] Jason Mantzoukas: Um, I’m a big Mrs. Harris goes to Paris fan. Love that movie.

[00:40:24] Paul Scheer: That’s very much my stepmother.

[00:40:26] Jason Mantzoukas: Love it. She also has that show on Brit Box called Mum that I think is a beautiful half hour sitcom. Um, but I’m, I’ve gotten very into her murder mystery series, which is.

[00:40:37] The first was called the Magpie Murders and the second was called the Moonflower Murders. Fantastic. Like, like PBS, Masterpiece Theater, like whodunit. Absolute blast. Um, Bad Monkey. I had a blast with Bad Monkey.

[00:40:52] Paul Scheer: I’ve been enjoying Bad Monkey. Yeah, I, I liked it. I liked the way it started and I was like, and you look, you know, Vince Vaughn when he’s kind of in that like pocket is fun. I like Carl Hyass and stuff.

[00:41:02] Same that’s what

[00:41:03] Jason Mantzoukas: I’m like. I’m really loving the Carl Hyass and of it, uh, just the goofball stuff. And then I know, uh, I’ve talked in the past about my. My new love, uh, of anime. Um, yeah, now that I have my Crunchy Roll subscription and I’ve become obsessed with anime, the show, it’s not Crunchy Roll, it’s Netflix.

[00:41:23] There’s a show called DanDaDan that is Wow. Straight bananas. Um, visually incredible. The, the, the story is absolutely cuckoo crazy. Uh, it’s a blast. I think this show is absolutely fantastic and everybody should.

[00:41:39] Paul Scheer: That’s on netflix as well, I believe.

[00:41:41] Jason Mantzoukas: It is on netflix I’m, sorry. Yes, it is on netflix DanDaDan. There this year there have been. Go ahead. What do you got?

[00:41:47] Paul Scheer: Well, I was gonna say, you know I I wanted to shout out our you know, our friends, you know, we talked about Letter Kenny You brought letter kenny into my life, you know sure show and shorty, uh that uh, Michelle Mullet has a Letterkenny watchalong podcast now.

[00:42:01] Jason Mantzoukas: Oh, I didn’t know that.

[00:42:02] Paul Scheer: Yeah, it’s called Spare Parts. It’s her and Evan Stern. Okay, also from the show and they’re gonna do the whole uh, the whole uh, the whole 80 episodes.

[00:42:12] Jason Mantzoukas: Oh, that’s great Oh, i’m excited. Yeah, i’m excited. Uh, listen to that. Oh, that’s great that Letter Kenny And shorty, I think are two of the most exciting half hour comedies to come out in the last whatever years.

[00:42:25] Paul Scheer: Ooh, can I plug the movie that I am in that I have a very small part and so I don’t want to like plug it in the like, oh, well Paul’s telling us a movie that he thinks is funny. Yeah, but uh, this movie that I did. Um, Again, very small part. It’s called The Gutter with Shamik More Darcy Carden Susan Sarandon and Paul Reiser.

[00:42:43] It is a big, dumb comedy. It’s written by Yasser Lester and directed by him and his brother and is it’s like Happy Gilmore meets Kingpin. Um, it’s so funny when I saw it in South by Southwest, it just was nonstop laughter. I haven’t been in the theater that was laughing. That’s how I feel about Letter Kenny to like where I’m just like laughing laugh.

[00:43:04] It’s got like 10 jokes a minute. It’s like bam bam bam bam. So if you don’t like one, there’s like 10 more and Darcy’s so funny in it. There’s great cameos. Jay Ellis is in it. I’m in it. Nelson Franklin. A bunch of great people. It’s a very funny, big, dumb movie. Like super dumb.

[00:43:23] Jason Mantzoukas: Oh, I love that.

[00:43:24] Paul Scheer: The Gutter.

[00:43:26] Jason Mantzoukas: There have been, I would say this year, as I am kind of winding down my year and making my lists, there have been a number of, I think, absolutely fantastic standup specials this year. Yeah. So I’ll just shout out a bunch of them right now. Um, Allie Wong’s Single Lady is terrific. Absolutely fantastic. Uh, we’ve had them both on the show to talk about them, but Joe Mandy’s Chill and James Acaster’s Heckler’s Welcome are both terrific.

[00:43:50] Uh, fantastic. Um, Langston Kerman’s Bad Poetry is incredible. Incredible standup special. And then on YouTube, um, one of my favorite, uh, standups, who’s very difficult to see his stuff because he’s, uh, he’s based in the UK. He’s very different. He doesn’t post his stuff anywhere. It doesn’t stream anywhere. Except Stuart Lee has one special streaming on YouTube right now, and it’s called Basic Lee live at the Lowry, and it’s fucking hysterical. It’s great.

[00:44:24] Paul Scheer: Ooh, I’m excited about that. I want to also shout out like Dropout has been doing some interesting specials as well. Oh, And, uh, Courtney Peruso, uh, so funny. She has a special called Vanessa 5, 000, which was a stage show here. And it is, if you have that, if you have Dropout, watch that special, it’s really fun. It’s just, I mean, uh.

[00:44:45] Jason Mantzoukas: Courtney is part of the clown. The L. A. comedy clown scene, uh, that’s built around the Elysian Theater in Frogtown. Uh, she’s partnered with Natalie Palmities on a lot of things.

[00:44:58] Natalie Palmities, you might know from Nate on Netflix, the special Nate, which is incredible. Courtney’s had two phenomenal specials that have gone to Edinburgh. Gutter Plum and this one that you’re mentioning. Um, and she is so fucking talented and so funny.

[00:45:15] Paul Scheer: It’s like one of those things where it’s like, if you want to like, like it captures also something that I don’t think a lot of people who live outside of major cities get to see, like, it’s a very cool, like, I love that Dropout is doing that and they have a lot of cool shit on there.

[00:45:28] Jason Mantzoukas: So I guess I need to like figure out Dropout. Dropout is a thing. I don’t quite. Have my my arms around.

[00:45:36] Paul Scheer: It’s crunchy roll. Just think of it like crunchy roll. It is. It is.

[00:45:39] Jason Mantzoukas: Okay. It’s just a slate of shows.

[00:45:42] Paul Scheer: It’s a slate of shows that they make with original comedy series that are nowhere else. It’s you know, it’s games. It’s like Very Important People hosted by Vic Michaelis. Really, really funny. Uh oh. They have like a.

[00:45:55] Jason Mantzoukas: They’re so funny.

And they’re doing like, uh, they’re doing specials. They’re doing a lot of cool shit. Like, uh, yeah. So you can sign up for a full year. I believe, let me look here and tell you how you can get it. And it will be functional like a criterion collection or anything like that.

[00:46:25] Uh, it’s 47 for the entire year. Um, great. You know, a really easy, uh, easy, decision.

[00:46:32] Jason Mantzoukas: I love that. Yeah. All right. I want to shout out one more thing and then I have a request Okay, my shout out is for boy, we’ve talked about them in the past and I’ll talk about them again. Tom Bin, uh, our backpack making friends, uh, in Seattle, have put out, uh, two new bags that I’ve been using, like, obsessively.

[00:46:53] Um, the, one of my favorite all time bags is the Synapse 25.

[00:46:57] Paul Scheer: Love that bag.

[00:46:58] Jason Mantzoukas: Which is my favorite bag, but doesn’t always function in the way I want it to. And they have built the Cynic 26, which is that bag, but with everything that I wasn’t wild about fixed. So it is a 26 liter clamshell opening, incredibly organized bag, Cynic 26, fantastic bag.

[00:47:17] And then they put out a new travel bag that I’ve been using on tour and traveling around because it’s bigger, which is called, I think, the Big Bixie or something like that, but it’s great. Oh, I got a great bag for like weeks of travel, which is sadly what has been going on in my life In the past bunch of months all for good reasons.

[00:47:34] Paul Scheer: I gotta look at this. I gotta look at this.

[00:47:36] Jason Mantzoukas: That’s been great. Both of those bags I love. And then there’s two shows. Thank you, everybody who has been so helpful in getting me shows that I can’t get otherwise Uh, there’s two shows that i’m looking for that. I can’t find I really want to watch Stephen Knight, who created Peaky Blinders and all the other stuff that we love, created a show called This Town in the UK that is about the ska, the punk ska scene in London, uh, the, the specials and madness in like the eight seventies and eighties.

[00:48:08] It’s a TV show about that era of music and bands. I want to watch that show, but I can’t find it. The other show I want to watch is the Showtime show, Flatbush Misdemeanors. If anybody can help me find either of those shows, I would appreciate it.

[00:48:21] Paul Scheer: Okay. I love it. All right, Jason, we will see you next time. Bye for now.

[00:48:25] All right. I hope you enjoyed Just Chat. And now it is time to finally announce our next movie. Next week, we’ll be going from a body swap fail, or I should say possession, to Santa’s Mail. That’s right. A body swap fail to Santa’s mail. I have to make sure the rhyme works. That’s right. Next episode, we’ll be watching the 2010 made for TV holiday rom com Christmas Mail.

[00:48:44] It’s actually not Christmas mail. You’ve got Christmas Mail. And that will be our live streaming episode with Jessica St. Claire. Get tickets right now at HDTGM.Com. Uh, you can watch it wherever you are in the world. Here is a breakdown of the plot.

[00:48:58] “A mysterious woman who works at the post office answering Santa’s mail captures the heart of a disillusioned postal carrier.”

[00:49:05] That’s there are no reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. So instead we turned to Letterboxd where user Cameron writes,

[00:49:12] “Christmas mail is simultaneously zero stars and five stars. Worse and funnier than The Room.”

[00:49:18] Oh shit. I can’t wait. Let’s take a listen to the trailer for Christmas mail.

[00:49:23] Trailer Audio: Matt has a job.

[00:49:25] Matt. There’s no slacky in the U S postal service. We got four weeks to Christmas.

[00:49:31] Emily has a wish.

[00:49:32] Dear Santa. I live with my uncle, but he’s all alone except for me. And I think he needs a friend. Can you help my Christmas wish come true?

[00:49:41] Christie has a secret.

[00:49:43] What’s going on in here?

[00:49:44] I’m on special assignment from corporate. You didn’t get the memo?

[00:49:48] Nope.

[00:49:48] Paul Scheer: We recently mentioned, uh, the poster for this movie uses the title, We’ve got Christmas Mail, but if you look at it on streaming services, you should just search Christmas mail. Okay. Now I corrected Scott. Now he’s correcting me. So yes, look for Christmas Mail. Hey, I don’t think it’s going to be too hard to find Christmas mail.

[00:50:05] It’s available to stream on Peacock, Amazon prime video, Freebie and Tubi. All right. So watch the episode uncut on December 12th with Jessica Sinclair or get, uh, just the audio version if you want next week, either way, it’s going to be fun, but the video episodes are a lot of fun. We’re going to add some fun bonuses in there and a heads up.

[00:50:25] If you plan to listen to the podcast version of the episode, we were doing a fast turnaround to release it the very next day after the live stream. So the episode will likely hit your podcast feed, uh, Friday afternoon or evening instead of first thing in the morning, like usual. And if you’re going to complain about that.

[00:50:40] It’s the, not the time, it’s not the time people. All right. That is it for Last Looks. If you listen on Apple podcasts or Spotify, please rate and review us.

[00:51:04] We will see you next week for Christmas Mail.
