Speaker 1: Welcome back everyone to another Heart of
Speaker 1: Horror.
Speaker 1: I'm Bo.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was.
Speaker 1: You know what.
Speaker 1: I didn't introduce you properly because
Speaker 1: it's been too long.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, but we can fix this in post,
Speaker 1: and by post I mean right now.
Speaker 1: But with me, as ever, the Baroque, the
Speaker 1: beautiful, Baroque and Baroque, the Baroque
Speaker 1: and the Baroque and the beautiful, as
Speaker 1: always, Kate, is here to help me figure out
Speaker 1: how to do this show again, because it's
Speaker 1: been forever.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean, that's the right.
Speaker 1: That's the problem with you know, life and
Speaker 1: jobs and whatnot is occasionally that
Speaker 1: becomes a thing that you have to
Speaker 1: concentrate on and that's bullshit.
Speaker 1: You shouldn't have to.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I, you know, but we're like here in
Speaker 1: the States, we're coming off of the
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving break, which was Thanksgiving,
Speaker 1: was great, I got, you know like it's eating
Speaker 1: with the family and everybody cooks a lot
Speaker 1: of food and whatnot, so that all that's
Speaker 1: great.
Speaker 1: And, no, I did not watch any games.
Speaker 1: Okay, what else you got?
Speaker 1: There were yams.
Speaker 2: Yes, Uh huh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yep, perfect.
Speaker 2: Uh huh.
Speaker 1: Yes, we didn't have pumpkin pie, but there
Speaker 1: were pies.
Speaker 1: There was like a cherry pie and, um well,
Speaker 1: unfortunately not there was no coffee,
Speaker 1: which was a real big problem.
Speaker 1: I yeah, uh yeah, badly arranged.
Speaker 1: But there was a chocolate pie, the cherry
Speaker 1: pie.
Speaker 1: I think that those were the two pies in
Speaker 1: question.
Speaker 1: I find pumpkin pies to be a little bland is
Speaker 1: really my problem is that the the taste of
Speaker 1: pumpkin does not have a an assertive enough
Speaker 1: profile.
Speaker 1: Does that sound very foodie, a discretion?
Speaker 1: But if you dump some shit on top of a
Speaker 1: pumpkin pie, like some whipped cream, now,
Speaker 1: now we're in business.
Speaker 1: But that's just cause I like whipped cream,
Speaker 1: not because I like pumpkin pie.
Speaker 1: I mean anything and anyone.
Speaker 1: Uh huh, the first of many whipped cream on
Speaker 1: nipple references that you'll get this
Speaker 1: episode, um, speaking of uh, with, with
Speaker 1: whipped cream and white and ghostly, do we
Speaker 1: have a haunted dating story?
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I, I'm a professional, I take
Speaker 1: this right down down.
Speaker 1: I know that may I mean not the worst segue
Speaker 1: I've ever done, but it's top 20 of the
Speaker 1: shitty ones.
Speaker 2: Mm, hmm, oh.
Speaker 1: Oh, there was no way.
Speaker 1: That's a real name.
Speaker 1: I thought you were going to say it's Peyt
Speaker 1: Kallik from Bristol.
Speaker 2: Yep, yeah, not you achu uku Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2: Okay, oh.
Speaker 1: All right, keep going, we'll, we'll come
Speaker 1: back to this you.
Speaker 2: You, you.
Speaker 1: Right, right that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's.
Speaker 1: Once you go specter, you'll always know who.
Speaker 1: Rector.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not great.
Speaker 1: Oh Wow, that is like the the throwing shit
Speaker 1: on the lawn of the spirit world.
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm, I Change you.
Speaker 1: I mean I know he was 2700 years old.
Speaker 1: I thought I could fix him.
Speaker 1: I don't know what accent that is, but yeah.
Speaker 1: I know it was.
Speaker 1: Yes, it was right next door to the chimchim
Speaker 1: tree.
Speaker 1: But he reorg but Uh-huh.
Speaker 1: Oh, he's probably off with his other ghost
Speaker 1: buddies.
Speaker 1: He's not even checking Right, not even
Speaker 1: looking at his messages or anything.
Speaker 1: Alright, all of this, top to bottom, pure
Speaker 1: nonsense.
Speaker 1: Another part of this, though, is the my
Speaker 1: sister, or the sister of my ghost fiance,
Speaker 1: is gonna be at the wedding, and you know
Speaker 1: that she asked this woman.
Speaker 1: Oh.
Speaker 1: But, but you know it had to be a real like
Speaker 1: will you be the maid of honor at my ghost
Speaker 1: wedding?
Speaker 1: And they're just like, uh, yeah, sure, you
Speaker 1: just tell me when the date is.
Speaker 1: It would just be one of those churches
Speaker 1: where, like fully half of it's filled with
Speaker 1: you know people who buy a lot of crystals
Speaker 1: and then the other half is totally empty.
Speaker 1: The other side.
Speaker 1: So a grifter by nature?
Speaker 1: Yeah, right it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, as soon as someone says, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm a spiritual counselor, then the first
Speaker 1: thing I think is like oh, so a scam artist
Speaker 1: or a cult leader, one of the two Speaking
Speaker 1: of?
Speaker 1: Alright, do we have more about the ghost
Speaker 1: lady dating here?
Speaker 1: Yeah, the only reason I'm trying to bail on
Speaker 1: this quickly is I mentioned cult leader and
Speaker 1: there is something that we have to discuss.
Speaker 1: Alright, have you seen the Twin Flames
Speaker 1: documentaries?
Speaker 1: I didn't know it was gonna come up.
Speaker 1: This was like completely organic.
Speaker 1: But I know I'm sorry, I didn't realize this
Speaker 1: was gonna happen, but I should have thought
Speaker 1: about it because it is perfect for us.
Speaker 1: It is a cult of people who are trying to
Speaker 1: fall in love and it is fucking bananas.
Speaker 1: There are two of them.
Speaker 1: They're dueling documentaries of the way
Speaker 1: that happened with the fire festival.
Speaker 1: One of them is on Amazon, the other is on
Speaker 1: Netflix.
Speaker 1: We certainly could I've watched both and I
Speaker 1: didn't mean to, but that's just how life
Speaker 1: happened Watch it and then we'll decide,
Speaker 1: because I don't want you to agree to that
Speaker 1: and then watch Right, watch the documentary.
Speaker 1: I don't want to be a part of this, but it
Speaker 1: is.
Speaker 1: I would recommend watching the Amazon one
Speaker 1: first and then watch the Netflix one,
Speaker 1: because I think the Amazon one is actually
Speaker 1: the better of the two in that it gives you
Speaker 1: more backstory on the craziness, and that's
Speaker 1: what you want out of this.
Speaker 1: You want here is the crazy shit that the
Speaker 1: cult leader made the people in the cult do,
Speaker 1: and fortunately, as of right now, there are
Speaker 1: no fatalities Like this is not a Manson
Speaker 1: style cult, right as far as true crime shit
Speaker 1: goes.
Speaker 1: There are certainly victims, as are
Speaker 1: presented in the documentaries, but
Speaker 1: nobody's dead.
Speaker 1: They're just people who are deep in on the
Speaker 1: cult.
Speaker 1: Well, but I mean that's so.
Speaker 1: Here's the thing is that the people who get
Speaker 1: involved in this it's totally
Speaker 1: understandable while they do so, but all
Speaker 1: the people that you're talking to in both
Speaker 1: of the documentaries are people who have
Speaker 1: gotten out of it, with very few exceptions,
Speaker 1: I think.
Speaker 1: So the thing that's fascinating about it is
Speaker 1: it's people who were deep in explaining,
Speaker 1: like here's how it caught me.
Speaker 1: This is what happened, like you know
Speaker 1: whether it's you know, my husband died, I
Speaker 1: got a divorce.
Speaker 1: I've never really been in love, any of that
Speaker 1: stuff and here is a couple on YouTube
Speaker 1: telling you hey, if you do these things,
Speaker 1: you will absolutely meet your soulmate For
Speaker 1: sure.
Speaker 1: But it gets Right.
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah and anyway, as you get
Speaker 1: into it, you'll just have to message me as
Speaker 1: you're watching this thing, because it's,
Speaker 1: but it's super good it is.
Speaker 1: Both of them are worth watching.
Speaker 1: Amazon, like I said, I think is better if
Speaker 1: you're only going to watch one, but I
Speaker 1: highly recommend it as a.
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, there is a cult in our
Speaker 1: midst and nobody has been reporting on this
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden now you can get a lot
Speaker 1: of information about this.
Speaker 1: Watch the Amazon one first and then follow
Speaker 1: up with an no, because it's different
Speaker 1: people that are being interviewed and you
Speaker 1: get a totally different spin on it, and one
Speaker 1: of them goes harder.
Speaker 1: The Netflix one goes a little harder on the
Speaker 1: gender stuff, but I don't want to say
Speaker 1: anymore about that, because you need to get,
Speaker 1: yeah, like, watch the Amazon one, and if
Speaker 1: you feel like you need more information or
Speaker 1: just want to watch more of these weirdos,
Speaker 1: the Jeff and Shalia are the names of the
Speaker 1: two at the center.
Speaker 1: Okay, you've got a death name?
Speaker 1: Maybe so, but this is a J E F F.
Speaker 1: Jeff, oh no, but I feel that way about
Speaker 1: every name.
Speaker 1: Amethyst realm is definitely not on the
Speaker 1: birth certificate, but yes, so there are
Speaker 1: cults in our midst and that's always
Speaker 1: exciting to know.
Speaker 1: Oh man, I love a good cult, especially if
Speaker 1: I'm not involved in it, most especially if
Speaker 1: I'm leading it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know what my premise is.
Speaker 1: I think it would.
Speaker 1: I think it would have to be built around
Speaker 1: Twin Peaks and that, like hey, I have.
Speaker 1: I have heard messages from the great beyond
Speaker 1: telling me that this is the touchstone of
Speaker 1: all spirituality.
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean at this point like you know, we're
Speaker 1: hiring in all roles at this point, so I
Speaker 1: don't know, pick your job, what do you?
Speaker 1: What do you feel like doing?
Speaker 1: You want to be in charge of indoctrination?
Speaker 1: Be in charge of indoctrination.
Speaker 1: You want to keep everybody awake all the
Speaker 1: time you know, so that they start to really
Speaker 1: mentally break down.
Speaker 1: I mean, take that job.
Speaker 1: Whatever you want to do, however, you want
Speaker 1: to torture these people.
Speaker 2: Mm, hmm.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean yeah, if you want to do just
Speaker 1: pure indoctrination, that's awesome.
Speaker 2: Uh, huh, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Look, I mean, they're going to be cleaning
Speaker 1: the place up and doing all the work.
Speaker 1: It's going to be great, and then all we've
Speaker 1: got to do is occasionally just sit down,
Speaker 1: you know, on the floor, cross legged in
Speaker 1: front of a fireplace, and talk to them
Speaker 1: about how they're disappointing us.
Speaker 1: I like, hey, if you were, if you were truly
Speaker 1: part of this movement, you would give more.
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Good, good, because I'm more of a big
Speaker 1: picture cult leader, Like I'm.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm not the one that's telling
Speaker 1: you how to get to the Polanski house.
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you hey, wouldn't it be a
Speaker 1: good idea if we just went Helter Skelter on
Speaker 1: a Hollywood couple?
Speaker 1: Yeah right, no, I just.
Speaker 1: You know we're talking about things, but
Speaker 1: I'm not going to tell you to go do it.
Speaker 2: But if it happened.
Speaker 1: I mean, how great would that be.
Speaker 1: Look, everybody needs their squeaky from,
Speaker 1: all, right, anyway.
Speaker 1: So we are talking this time, yeah, speaking
Speaker 1: of cults.
Speaker 1: We're talking about work and workplace
Speaker 1: relationships, and if there is, look, every,
Speaker 1: every workplace is basically just one group
Speaker 1: of gossipy bitches traded for another.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter where you go or what
Speaker 1: you're doing, you are working with a bunch
Speaker 1: of gossipy bitches.
Speaker 1: You are probably a gossipy bitch and I, oh
Speaker 1: yeah, I love a good mess at work,
Speaker 1: especially if it doesn't touch me
Speaker 1: personally, but I get to witness it and
Speaker 1: judge it.
Speaker 2: Mm, hmm.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is the place to be.
Speaker 1: You know, you have to know where to stand
Speaker 1: and Right, and so we're talking about that
Speaker 1: along alongside the movie the Voices, yeah,
Speaker 1: which is, of course, the Ryan Reynolds, you
Speaker 1: know, I mean, I I hesitate to call it a
Speaker 1: pure horror movie, although he, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's.
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: The one thing I was most surprised with
Speaker 1: this movie is how gruesome it truly gets
Speaker 1: and it's such a weird movie I mean both.
Speaker 1: Well, we'll get back to the workplace stuff
Speaker 1: in a second, but, like it is, the tone of
Speaker 1: this movie is really strange Because it's
Speaker 1: almost fantastical.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1: But I guess that is part of the delusion
Speaker 1: you know that you're seeing, because you're
Speaker 1: seeing this movie through Ryan Reynolds's
Speaker 1: eyes and he's, you know, only schizophrenic
Speaker 1: break because he has stopped taking his
Speaker 1: medication, and that's one of the things
Speaker 1: that's really interesting about it.
Speaker 1: It's why it seems so tonally crazy, is,
Speaker 1: yeah, but so the the premise of the movie.
Speaker 1: We meet Ryan Reynolds, who is working at a
Speaker 1: factory, yeah, and he's kind of a quiet,
Speaker 1: keeps to himself, kind of guy.
Speaker 1: Right, like neighbors yeah, no complaints
Speaker 1: for many of them.
Speaker 1: And then there is a woman at work that he's
Speaker 1: really into, play by Jim Arderton.
Speaker 2: I mean, look, I've been.
Speaker 1: Uh-huh, it's Jim Arderton and Carla Cugino
Speaker 1: occupying, occupied, the same kind of space
Speaker 1: in my mind and I mean I'm obsessed with
Speaker 1: both of them.
Speaker 1: I think they're both beautiful, yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: and kind of kind of spicy, you think so,
Speaker 1: carla Cugino?
Speaker 2: Hmm.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, absolutely.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, very kind of an
Speaker 1: almost retro vibe, but you know that
Speaker 1: they're also like, really confident and
Speaker 1: like like the fact that they dress in a
Speaker 1: more restrained fashion almost makes them
Speaker 1: sexier.
Speaker 1: Right, you have to work for Sure, right,
Speaker 1: we're right, I'm not, I'm not advertising
Speaker 1: it, because once this dress comes off, it's
Speaker 1: going to be your mind's going to be blown.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have not.
Speaker 1: Oh, no, no, no, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: No, I was thinking Babylon, that movie from
Speaker 1: last year.
Speaker 1: No, I've definitely seen Byzantium.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 1: Like Jim Arderton, from what?
Speaker 1: The disappearance of Alice Creed?
Speaker 1: Is that what's called?
Speaker 1: Oh, it's so fucking good, yeah, and but
Speaker 1: she's great in it was one of her early
Speaker 1: roles, I think.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but from the first time I saw her on
Speaker 1: screen, I was like she is gorgeous.
Speaker 1: And how, how do I make her my, my own, my
Speaker 1: wife, right, I mean, that doesn't seem
Speaker 1: hardly fair.
Speaker 1: I can't compete with that.
Speaker 1: Well, but he's accomplished and that's what
Speaker 1: he's got going, and isn't she with James
Speaker 1: Bond now?
Speaker 1: Oh boy, I'd say there you go.
Speaker 1: Jim Arderton, rachel, vice, carlo Gagino,
Speaker 1: all three of it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Maybe, yeah, maybe that's my fetish and I
Speaker 1: didn't realize it.
Speaker 1: I don't know who is Rory Keenan.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 1: Oh, somebody's looking for some money.
Speaker 1: Oh, I could see that she probably likes a
Speaker 1: reps galleon.
Speaker 1: Oh, why did we go?
Speaker 1: Billy Joel, I guess, but.
Speaker 1: But so point being Ryan Reynolds
Speaker 1: justifiably obsessed with Jim Arderton, but
Speaker 1: if they had been there, probably equally
Speaker 1: obsessed with either Rachel vice or Carla
Speaker 1: Gagino, but yeah.
Speaker 1: So he ends up taking her home one night
Speaker 1: after her car stalls and sort of it is kind
Speaker 1: of our first hit other than his pets
Speaker 1: talking to him.
Speaker 1: By the way, the whole premise of this movie
Speaker 1: is that he's got a cat that, in a Scottish
Speaker 1: Brogue, is constantly telling him to do the
Speaker 1: worst possible shit, and a dog, an old
Speaker 1: hound, absolutely.
Speaker 1: And the old dog is you know, oh, brad
Speaker 1: Reynolds, you shouldn't do that, right?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really fun.
Speaker 1: It's funny Hear him kind of cutting loose,
Speaker 1: especially with the cat, which is very
Speaker 1: funny, yeah, and and so, yeah for sure.
Speaker 1: And so he's, he's taking her home and at
Speaker 1: first she's a little withdrawn, but then
Speaker 1: she starts to come around and worth saying
Speaker 1: she's kind of mean, she's kind of a mean
Speaker 1: lady, what doesn't, oh for sure.
Speaker 1: And it seems to be not thrilled about being
Speaker 1: placed at this particular location, like
Speaker 1: she's from out of town and kind of sees
Speaker 1: everyone and everything as a little bit
Speaker 1: beneath her.
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 1: And.
Speaker 1: But so you know, as fate would have it,
Speaker 1: they're together in the Cabo Vistrock and
Speaker 1: it's it was at a deer, yeah, right, and so
Speaker 1: he has to kill this deer to put it out of
Speaker 1: its misery.
Speaker 1: And Jimmy order, right, yes, and Jim are
Speaker 1: ardent and, rightfully, is kind of freaked
Speaker 1: out by this and starts to kind of walk away
Speaker 1: and then he chases her down and kills her.
Speaker 1: Well, but that's alright.
Speaker 1: So that's one of the questions of the movie.
Speaker 1: Right Is like is it accidental?
Speaker 1: I mean, because the cat is kind of asking
Speaker 1: him the cat sort of the evil part of his
Speaker 1: personality.
Speaker 1: But even the cat is like well, I mean, why
Speaker 1: did you have the knife in hand like that
Speaker 1: and why were you holding it like that if
Speaker 1: you did not plan killing her?
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you're right, because he's trying
Speaker 1: to be a good guy.
Speaker 1: He thinks he's a good guy and that's the
Speaker 1: irony of all of this is that he's trying to
Speaker 1: play himself off as like just a lovable guy
Speaker 1: next door.
Speaker 1: But we see with his relationship with his
Speaker 1: therapist that she's like hey, you got to
Speaker 1: keep taking the pills, because when you
Speaker 1: don't take the pills, then the voices come
Speaker 1: back or you hear in the voices Not really,
Speaker 1: okay, good, right, and he keeps the trophy
Speaker 1: though Percerial killer tradition.
Speaker 1: He, yeah it and kind of in that same sort
Speaker 1: of emotionally pathetic way and you can see
Speaker 1: through the flashbacks of you know his
Speaker 1: earlier life that things were not great and
Speaker 1: you know he's like, yeah, I mean, it's a
Speaker 1: very killers are made, not born, sort of
Speaker 1: thing that maybe you know the eternal
Speaker 1: question, right Of like, are you born bad
Speaker 1: or can you be born violent and crazy?
Speaker 1: And yeah, and I think you can be, but I
Speaker 1: think more often than not, that's just like
Speaker 1: whether or not you have that killer
Speaker 1: gunpowder inside you.
Speaker 1: Then something has to light up for you,
Speaker 1: right, and that's oh no, we're both talking
Speaker 1: out our ass to some degree, but it's based
Speaker 1: largely on documentaries, we both saying
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 2: Look, yes, oh.
Speaker 1: We, we should be detectives, we should go
Speaker 1: around and solve mysteries, yeah, yeah, but
Speaker 1: most of mine would be based on casting like
Speaker 1: See, my problem, though, is I would be like,
Speaker 1: well, it's clearly this guy.
Speaker 1: And they're like, why?
Speaker 1: Well, because it's, you know, jeremy Sisto,
Speaker 1: and he's too big.
Speaker 1: He's too big to be doing a guest spot
Speaker 1: without having a bigger role, so he's got
Speaker 1: to be the killer.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but yes, I would love to.
Speaker 1: In my mind at least.
Speaker 1: There is a whole life I've led where I get
Speaker 1: to wear like trench coats more, and I've
Speaker 1: got a battered hat that I take with me
Speaker 1: everywhere, and people give me shit about
Speaker 1: it, but I keep wearing it anyway.
Speaker 1: And yeah, yeah, I promise that I'll never
Speaker 1: buy another pack of cigarettes, but I'm
Speaker 1: constantly bumming them off of other people
Speaker 1: and they're like why don't you just buy
Speaker 1: your own cigarettes?
Speaker 1: Because I quit and that's my gimmick.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: This sounds good, and then Right.
Speaker 1: So in that situation are we full partners
Speaker 1: in this?
Speaker 1: Sure Right right places I could never get
Speaker 1: into.
Speaker 1: It's like show them a little leg, Show them
Speaker 1: a little tits, and then yeah, and then
Speaker 1: we're off to the records room.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like oh, I like all of this.
Speaker 2: Mm, hmm.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 1: So he ends up taking her head back home,
Speaker 1: and which talks to him also, and now he can
Speaker 1: imagine her being like, really friendly and
Speaker 1: supportive.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah and yeah, there is talk of
Speaker 1: crumpets.
Speaker 2: Hey.
Speaker 1: So Right Right.
Speaker 2: Hmm I don't know.
Speaker 1: I've seen a lot of movies, but I like that
Speaker 1: because all of the movie is filtered
Speaker 1: through Ryan Reynolds brain, that when you
Speaker 1: get the glimpses of what his apartment
Speaker 1: really looks like, right, it's just this
Speaker 1: nasty hoarder mess, yes, but when he, when
Speaker 1: you're seeing it purely through his eyes,
Speaker 1: you know, because there's that one point
Speaker 1: where he stops taking the medication or
Speaker 1: starts taking it rather, and then every and
Speaker 1: everything is fucked and he's like why
Speaker 1: would I want to live like this?
Speaker 1: Why wouldn't I take this medicine that
Speaker 1: makes everything okay again.
Speaker 2: Right, right, right Right.
Speaker 1: But yeah so, but yeah so, that dichotomy of
Speaker 1: what his life is really like, and you kind
Speaker 1: of know that, like once, you see it every
Speaker 1: time you see this kind of glowing.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's one of the things I love so much
Speaker 1: about it is, yeah, like in your mind's eye
Speaker 1: it's like oh, that head is grotesque.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, mm-hmm, that's right, because you
Speaker 1: know you wanted to do this in an orderly
Speaker 1: fashion.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, exactly, and so, yeah, it's
Speaker 1: all of that stuff I find really, really
Speaker 1: interesting.
Speaker 1: And then, added to all of this is Anna
Speaker 1: Kendrick, who sweet, sweet summer child.
Speaker 1: Anna Kendrick, who is this incredibly sweet
Speaker 1: girl who very much so very, very Middle
Speaker 1: America, very small town.
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
Speaker 1: And all she wants is, you know, to get to
Speaker 1: know Ryan Reynolds.
Speaker 1: She thinks he's, you know, a cute guy and
Speaker 1: mm-hmm.
Speaker 1: That's the thing is when you realize like,
Speaker 1: oh, he actually has a genuine connection
Speaker 1: with her.
Speaker 1: That goes beyond this fantasy world that he
Speaker 1: had with Jim Arter, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: The scene where he says he's locked out of
Speaker 1: his house and she's like, oh, I can do this
Speaker 1: because you know I'm right, and she just
Speaker 1: starts, yeah, and while he's like trying to
Speaker 1: get in through a skylight or whatever a
Speaker 1: window, she's just like, oh, I'm going to
Speaker 1: open the door and go inside, and it's just
Speaker 1: a house of horrors.
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm, mm-hmm yeah.
Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes, yes.
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
Speaker 1: Mm-hmm, oh, and just shit and piss
Speaker 1: everywhere, and Mm-hmm, I yep.
Speaker 1: Good night, ladies and gentlemen, I hope
Speaker 1: you have it.
Speaker 1: I that's fantastic, and it made it its way
Speaker 1: to Facebook as well, so it's preserved
Speaker 1: forever.
Speaker 1: You know I was just thinking I have, even
Speaker 1: though I'm a cat owner.
Speaker 1: If I walk into a date's house and there is
Speaker 1: a distinct like cat litter aroma, that is
Speaker 1: the fucking worst.
Speaker 1: That's where I'm like oh, we, we cannot go
Speaker 1: on.
Speaker 1: Right it like it's got to be a real like.
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm surprised that you have cats on
Speaker 1: account of there being a lack of poop spell.
Speaker 1: But there are those things that if I walk
Speaker 1: into somebody's house and I see certain
Speaker 1: things like that's one thing where I'm like
Speaker 1: oh, this is a, this is a big red flag.
Speaker 1: And but that's a different thing.
Speaker 1: There is, there is a difference between hey,
Speaker 1: it's, yeah, like some of it is just like oh,
Speaker 1: it's, it smells like your cat just took a
Speaker 1: shit, versus your entire place smells like
Speaker 1: your cat taking a shit.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Like it's just in the carpet and drapes and
Speaker 1: yeah, like I.
Speaker 1: I.
Speaker 1: I say this from experience, because I dated
Speaker 1: somebody that had that kind of situation
Speaker 1: and I was like, can you not smell this?
Speaker 1: And right where she was like it just
Speaker 1: doesn't bother me, I guess, and I'm like it
Speaker 1: should.
Speaker 1: This is awful.
Speaker 1: I mean, right, this isn't about like hey,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to shame you as a pet owner or
Speaker 1: anything like that.
Speaker 1: But it right, it's just off, putting you
Speaker 1: know.
Speaker 1: And but there, there, there are a handful
Speaker 1: of things like that, like that kind of odor.
Speaker 1: If you see somebody, that's just to your
Speaker 1: point, like you knew I was coming over and
Speaker 1: your place looks like this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it doesn't have to be perfect or
Speaker 1: anything, but it right.
Speaker 1: I mean knowing that somebody is just like
Speaker 1: capable of a clean environment.
Speaker 1: That's all I need, right?
Speaker 1: Or I'm just obsessive enough that when I
Speaker 1: see something that's really messy, I'm like
Speaker 1: I can help you clean this.
Speaker 1: You know, like let's put these books back
Speaker 1: on a shelf, or?
Speaker 1: The exception, obviously, is the nightstand,
Speaker 1: but one of the two places Mm, hmm.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you know I got real upset.
Speaker 1: What the other day?
Speaker 1: One of the kids in class just had a book
Speaker 1: open, was just tearing a page out of the
Speaker 1: back of it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I was like what are you doing?
Speaker 1: I don't think we're allowed to cane.
Speaker 1: But I definitely stopped in my tracks what
Speaker 1: I was doing and asked that question like
Speaker 1: what is this about?
Speaker 1: And they're just like I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm like just it's.
Speaker 1: You know, if you don't want to read the
Speaker 1: book, that's fine.
Speaker 1: If you're bored in class, that's fine.
Speaker 1: Please do not destroy a book in this class,
Speaker 1: right?
Speaker 1: The book didn't do anything to you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 1: It stopped me in my tracks.
Speaker 1: We're not allowed to hit them.
Speaker 2: Strangely enough, yeah, it was.
Speaker 1: Yeah right, it doesn't take that much work
Speaker 1: to treat a book with respect.
Speaker 1: Just don't destroy it, that's all.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was terribly frustrating.
Speaker 1: I got you know, as we're recording this,
Speaker 1: I'm going back tomorrow after a five day
Speaker 1: break and I'm like I don't want to see any
Speaker 1: of them.
Speaker 1: That's not true.
Speaker 1: There are some of them that are super fun.
Speaker 1: But, man, it's getting to be the end of the
Speaker 1: year and a lot are, you know, the semester,
Speaker 1: and a lot of them are starting to realize
Speaker 1: like, oh shit, I'm going to fail, and so I
Speaker 1: like going back beans.
Speaker 1: I've just got a deluge of kids that are
Speaker 1: like, well, what if I do this?
Speaker 1: Well, can I pass?
Speaker 1: Then I'm like well, how about you turn in
Speaker 1: the work that you haven't turned in?
Speaker 1: That's 99% of every problem I have with
Speaker 1: kids.
Speaker 1: Is that, like my grades, terrible?
Speaker 1: Well, you didn't turn anything in.
Speaker 1: What do you want me to do?
Speaker 1: Did you communicate any of this to your
Speaker 1: professor?
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, that's all you need.
Speaker 1: Oh well, that's still fine.
Speaker 2: Uh huh, okay, uh huh.
Speaker 1: Oh, that's all right.
Speaker 1: Oh, okay, well, that's helpful.
Speaker 2: Uh huh.
Speaker 1: Oh, that is, I mean very responsible and
Speaker 1: honestly, if, if, if, I mean if this was a
Speaker 1: situation where one of the kids was like,
Speaker 1: hey, I've been out for a week and I need a
Speaker 1: couple of extra days to make up these
Speaker 1: assignments, that's not a big deal, but
Speaker 1: these are just kids like you've been here
Speaker 1: every single day.
Speaker 1: You just don't do shit, and yeah.
Speaker 1: So that's why I threw chalk at your head,
Speaker 1: Because I want you to at least, you know,
Speaker 1: get some physical exertion in.
Speaker 1: No, no, I did.
Speaker 1: Now, if I were really going to hurl things
Speaker 1: at the kids, I would just take a you know a
Speaker 1: sock full of AA batteries and like leave
Speaker 1: some marks, you know right, Something that
Speaker 1: like, yeah, when they're in their mid
Speaker 1: twenties and you know having that romantic
Speaker 1: moment where a partner is touching their
Speaker 1: forehead, studying their face, and it's
Speaker 1: like, hey, where did you get this little
Speaker 1: scar from?
Speaker 1: Oh, that's when I was a dipshit in my
Speaker 1: English teacher's class.
Speaker 1: Oh, really, Did you?
Speaker 1: Did you deserve it?
Speaker 1: Were you asking for it?
Speaker 1: Since that day, I don't recall exactly what
Speaker 1: I did wrong and I can't see the color
Speaker 1: purple.
Speaker 2: Hmm, hmm.
Speaker 1: Oh, what is this?
Speaker 1: A repressed memory coming back.
Speaker 2: Hmm, yeah.
Speaker 1: Oh so, uh, yeah, anna Kendrick discovers
Speaker 1: what's afoot and, of course, at that point
Speaker 1: Ryan Reynolds feels the need to to kill her
Speaker 1: to cover up the crime.
Speaker 1: And also, we've got you know sort of the
Speaker 1: cops slowly but surely closing in on Ryan
Speaker 1: Reynolds for the disappearance of Gemma
Speaker 1: Arderton, as well as another woman who
Speaker 1: comes by to check on things.
Speaker 1: And yeah, right, so she, she's had number
Speaker 1: two, right, okay, so two is Anna Kendrick.
Speaker 1: And then yeah, so right, and I mean he's
Speaker 1: just got a chorus of them now, and, and the
Speaker 1: thing that's real fucked up is when he's
Speaker 1: talking to these severed heads.
Speaker 1: They're like I am so happy now, I'm so glad
Speaker 1: we get to be together.
Speaker 1: You know it's, it's Right, right, right,
Speaker 1: right.
Speaker 2: Mm, hmm.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very much a.
Speaker 1: I thought you were a good person and now I
Speaker 1: don't know anymore.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Oh sure.
Speaker 2: Mm, hmm.
Speaker 1: Yeah and oh, it's a hold on.
Speaker 1: I've got it right here, jackie Weaver, and
Speaker 1: she is great in this, and when he kidnaps
Speaker 1: her, which happens pretty quickly, it's no
Speaker 1: shit, right, yeah, exactly If you're going
Speaker 1: to work with dangerous people.
Speaker 1: But yeah, you know, I mean he kind of lets
Speaker 1: her know like hey, I've been off the pills
Speaker 1: for a while now, which is a real problem.
Speaker 1: We're on a live them.
Speaker 1: Yes, and it's, it's a great moment because
Speaker 1: she understands that her life is sort of in
Speaker 1: her own hands, where, if she takes the
Speaker 1: wrong step, things are going to go bad.
Speaker 1: Right, so she's, she's got to sort of play
Speaker 1: the part of I'm your therapist, I'm too
Speaker 1: invaluable and also I won't ever betray you,
Speaker 1: because that's the thing is now like to
Speaker 1: protect himself.
Speaker 1: She knows what's up and sort of implies
Speaker 1: well, you're just going to be the next head
Speaker 1: in my fridge, you know and takes her back
Speaker 1: to his place, where we get some really
Speaker 1: disgusting shots of this is what his place
Speaker 1: looks like now.
Speaker 1: Yes, and the police are closing in, and so
Speaker 1: it's, you know, the therapist getting away,
Speaker 1: the the place kind of going up in flames,
Speaker 1: and and Ryan Reynolds is Jerry, and so
Speaker 1: we're kind of making the decision I'm going
Speaker 1: to stay in this building, this you know old
Speaker 1: bowling alley that is now his apartment
Speaker 1: that he lives above, and we see the cat and
Speaker 1: the dog get away, though, which is nice,
Speaker 1: and yeah, and then the whole thing goes up
Speaker 1: in flame.
Speaker 1: Brown Reynolds dies with it, and then we're
Speaker 1: treated to this like crazy dream sequence.
Speaker 1: I do, and I actually I do like this a lot
Speaker 1: because it's it's sort of implying that his
Speaker 1: mind is now free to kind of live in that
Speaker 1: world.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Right, Right right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's one of the things I really
Speaker 1: liked about it too is that one.
Speaker 1: It gives you a chance to sort of appreciate
Speaker 1: that Ryan Reynolds actually is a pretty
Speaker 1: good actor and the fact that, as you said,
Speaker 1: he makes this horrible person kind of
Speaker 1: sympathetic and relatable and knows how
Speaker 1: what that tone ought to be.
Speaker 1: And, yeah, I mean you do want sort of a
Speaker 1: happy ending for him, because you do feel
Speaker 1: like he is a victim in as much as he never
Speaker 1: stood a chance to avoid this compulsion he
Speaker 1: has, and, as a result, though, people are
Speaker 1: dying and you're like I know that he killed
Speaker 1: people, but also, what if we just got him
Speaker 1: some help?
Speaker 1: And, yeah, you know, let me ask you
Speaker 1: something speaking of workplace romance,
Speaker 1: since, all right, when you are involved
Speaker 1: with someone and they talk about a work
Speaker 1: wife or a work husband, do you find that to
Speaker 1: be a problem?
Speaker 2: What do you do, mm?
Speaker 2: Hmm?
Speaker 1: Ernie bored here, to be honest.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and an X on Absent.
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, I think it's weird, you
Speaker 1: know, I think it.
Speaker 1: I think it implies a closeness that, if
Speaker 1: that's how your partner is describing it, I
Speaker 1: think that's a problem, you know.
Speaker 1: But I had.
Speaker 1: I was dating somebody at one point and they
Speaker 1: talked about the teacher across the hall
Speaker 1: from me that I'm close with or closer with
Speaker 1: her than anybody else that I work with, and
Speaker 1: but she's also right across the hall, like
Speaker 1: I see her all the time, we talk all the
Speaker 1: time, that kind of thing.
Speaker 1: And so the person I'm with is like so is
Speaker 1: that your work wife?
Speaker 1: And I'm like no, that's not how I would
Speaker 1: characterize that relationship, but like
Speaker 1: we're friends and I think that like that's
Speaker 1: your work spouse situation I think is real.
Speaker 1: There's something about it that implies a,
Speaker 1: a like you're cheating on the person.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
Speaker 2: I think it's weird.
Speaker 2: I think it's weird.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just, you know, it's to say like
Speaker 1: your work friends, that's totally fine, you
Speaker 1: know.
Speaker 1: But when you're, when you start like
Speaker 1: putting it in that right as like oh, I have
Speaker 1: this, we're not just friends, this is a
Speaker 1: special relationship, it's like, well, is
Speaker 1: it?
Speaker 1: Because that seems like you are courting
Speaker 1: danger, my friend?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I.
Speaker 1: I just keep thinking of the old expression
Speaker 1: and I don't remember where I first heard
Speaker 1: this.
Speaker 1: It was probably my dad, because this sounds
Speaker 1: like something terribly uncouth he would
Speaker 1: say but when it comes to dating people at
Speaker 1: work, he would always say don't shit where
Speaker 1: you eat and that is something that has
Speaker 1: haunted me ever since of like, if you're
Speaker 1: going to date somebody, just make sure you
Speaker 1: don't work with them too.
Speaker 1: You're kind of shit.
Speaker 2: Yeah, mm, hmm, mm, hmm, mm, hmm, mm, hmm,
Speaker 2: mm, hmm, mm, hmm.
Speaker 1: Mm, hmm, mm, hmm, yeah, for sure what I
Speaker 1: mean.
Speaker 1: Just because he's gotten older or like, did
Speaker 1: he fall, have some kind of industrial
Speaker 1: accident?
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, got him while he was good.
Speaker 1: I guess you know.
Speaker 1: I mean that.
Speaker 1: That's how you get away with being a dick,
Speaker 1: right, that's.
Speaker 1: That's big dick.
Speaker 1: Energy, right there is.
Speaker 1: Yeah, mm, hmm, yeah, that's really, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: I guess we all did at some point.
Speaker 1: I'm just thinking of it in modern terms of
Speaker 1: like having a plate of food while I'm yeah,
Speaker 1: which I've no people who did that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's yeah, no, that seems crazy.
Speaker 2: Mm, hmm.
Speaker 1: I know a workplace related date was my
Speaker 1: worst date ever.
Speaker 1: Well, all right, I take that back now that
Speaker 1: I think now that I say it out loud, that is
Speaker 1: not the case, but it was a really bad date.
Speaker 1: So it was.
Speaker 1: I may have told this story before, maybe
Speaker 1: not on the show, though.
Speaker 1: So, um, I was working at a computer place
Speaker 1: at the time and there was a young woman
Speaker 1: that I worked with and we flirted back and
Speaker 1: forth and things seem to be going well, and
Speaker 1: I had two tickets to see George Carlin,
Speaker 1: back when he was all like yeah, and so I
Speaker 1: said hey, would you like to go see George
Speaker 1: Carlin with me?
Speaker 1: And she said I would love to.
Speaker 1: And I was like, cool, that means a couple
Speaker 1: of things.
Speaker 1: Right, like she likes George Carlin, that's
Speaker 1: a good, good sign, right, and, and now
Speaker 1: we're, you know, going out.
Speaker 1: So all of this is coming up, oh, and we go
Speaker 1: to dinner Pretty decent sushi place ahead
Speaker 1: of the show and in the course of that
Speaker 1: conversation I realize, to paraphrase her,
Speaker 1: I think I know who George Carlin is.
Speaker 1: Oh, this could go bad.
Speaker 1: So we went to see the show and there's no
Speaker 1: opening act, as I recall.
Speaker 1: Instead, just when it's time for the show
Speaker 1: to start, the announcer says hey, we just
Speaker 1: want to let you know about some merch that
Speaker 1: you're able to buy from the show tonight.
Speaker 1: There, I can't remember what the first
Speaker 1: thing was, but the second thing was a T
Speaker 1: shirt.
Speaker 1: Oh, the first thing I do remember it was a
Speaker 1: T shirt that had a thousand profane words
Speaker 1: or phrases on it, and the other the other
Speaker 1: one was a shirt that on the front says
Speaker 1: Simon says, and on the back it says go fuck
Speaker 1: yourself.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I'm.
Speaker 1: So I'm kind of laughing at that.
Speaker 1: I look over at my date and like she is as
Speaker 1: tight lipped and disappointed as a person
Speaker 1: can possibly be Right.
Speaker 1: And Carlin comes out on stage.
Speaker 1: The first thing he says is you know what
Speaker 1: people never talk about anymore Pussyfarts.
Speaker 1: And so I look at my date and I'm like, hey,
Speaker 1: how did?
Speaker 1: How did that hit you, cause I don't think
Speaker 1: it's going to get any any better or worse
Speaker 1: than that.
Speaker 1: And she is beside herself.
Speaker 1: She just no, no, no, is not having a good
Speaker 1: time at all, and right, and so then it was
Speaker 1: like all right.
Speaker 1: Well, do I pretend that I am also offended
Speaker 1: the person who bought these tickets and
Speaker 1: invited her or do I just take her home
Speaker 1: because she's not having a good time?
Speaker 1: Or do I do the sensible thing and actually
Speaker 1: sit back and just enjoy seeing George
Speaker 1: Carlin in person?
Speaker 1: That's what I did.
Speaker 1: So it was just like, ah, fuck it, we're
Speaker 1: just going to enjoy the show.
Speaker 1: And it was very funny, it was a great show.
Speaker 1: But on my way taking her back home, it was
Speaker 1: just the most uncomfortable car trip where,
Speaker 1: like, she was just frigid and, yes, she was
Speaker 1: not pleased.
Speaker 2: Uh huh, uh huh, obviously Uh huh.
Speaker 1: Oh no.
Speaker 2: Uh huh.
Speaker 1: Right, right, great aunt Gertrude.
Speaker 2: Uh huh, uh huh.
Speaker 1: Uh huh, I worked in restaurants for a
Speaker 1: little while when I was going to college
Speaker 1: and, like you said, you're just kind of you
Speaker 1: know fucking everybody.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was like yeah, I was like one of
Speaker 1: the one of the worst dating situations I'd
Speaker 1: ever had was there where I was.
Speaker 1: I was going out with a girl that was just
Speaker 1: like fooling around with everybody and I
Speaker 1: like misread that as being a little too
Speaker 1: like exclusive and realize like I was
Speaker 1: talking to a guy that I worked with.
Speaker 1: He was like oh yeah, yeah, I fucked her
Speaker 1: Tuesday night.
Speaker 1: I was like I fucked her Monday night.
Speaker 1: Wait a second.
Speaker 2: Yeah, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was the part she wasn't doing.
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
Speaker 1: Yes, please.
Speaker 2: Uh-huh, yeah, yeah, mm-hmm, mm-hmm Right.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, of course.
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
Speaker 1: Well, just having the opportunity to say
Speaker 1: like hey, before you make the dive, like we
Speaker 1: ought to get in there and clean things up,
Speaker 1: because, sure, yeah, absolutely yeah,
Speaker 1: absolutely yeah, I know, I know, I know,
Speaker 1: mm-hmm, yeah, at least you're sick with the
Speaker 1: theme.
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, are you talking
Speaker 1: about the butterfly one?
Speaker 2: Yeah, mm-hmm.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, that's just a conversation you
Speaker 1: just don't want to have.
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just different, right, Like if
Speaker 1: you're.
Speaker 1: I think it's gender specific.
Speaker 1: There are some things that boys can only
Speaker 1: talk to fathers about and feel comfortable
Speaker 1: doing it with daughters and mothers.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Certainly more liberal and more accepting
Speaker 1: of.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well, I think, if we are talking about, you
Speaker 1: know, little girls and daddies, do we have
Speaker 1: a tender as the flesh prepared?
Speaker 1: Oh well, let's bring this particular
Speaker 1: episode, let's punch the clock Uh-huh and
Speaker 1: prepare for some overtime with.
Speaker 1: I just left and right.
Speaker 1: Okay, are we doing the standard three?
Speaker 1: Is it three?
Speaker 1: Okay, just making sure, all right, good,
Speaker 1: good good yes.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: That's a little bit Okay.
Speaker 1: Okay, I mean, I get it.
Speaker 1: I love my dog.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's like you.
Speaker 1: You mentioned the dog and you can.
Speaker 1: You can't devote more than 10% of your
Speaker 1: profile to your pets.
Speaker 2: Hmm.
Speaker 1: Yeah, not just random dogs.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, not great, I mean, I'm not
Speaker 1: very into his pets, right, but it's also a
Speaker 1: little weird.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I admittedly have an
Speaker 1: unhealthy relationship with my dog, and you
Speaker 1: know, I think that goes both ways.
Speaker 1: I think he has an unhealthy fixation with
Speaker 1: me.
Speaker 1: I think this is really good.
Speaker 1: Yes, we love them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and we both like maps, that's for
Speaker 1: sure.
Speaker 1: We do love food, he, we both like to pull
Speaker 1: apart stuffed animals and get the squeaker
Speaker 1: out.
Speaker 1: That's something that we've done a part and
Speaker 1: together, but it's something that we can
Speaker 1: really find common ground about.
Speaker 1: So, right, I learned it from you dad, it's,
Speaker 1: but but I do, I like I, I very much have
Speaker 1: that kind of relationship where, um, and
Speaker 1: it's cause I live alone, but it's like when
Speaker 1: I walk in the door, the first thing I see
Speaker 1: is my dog and he's excited to see me.
Speaker 1: And then we, we have pets and I take them
Speaker 1: for a walk and so, like a lot of my
Speaker 1: schedule revolves around the dog.
Speaker 1: Like when I wake up, like oh, I got to take
Speaker 1: the dog out before I get ready myself, and
Speaker 1: that kind of that kind of thing.
Speaker 1: So it's like I have a very dog heavy life.
Speaker 1: But yeah, if somebody else lived here then
Speaker 1: I could give them some of the
Speaker 1: responsibility of the dog, which would be
Speaker 1: great if I wasn't the only person.
Speaker 1: Sure, that's fine, but just having somebody
Speaker 1: just take the dog out half the time would
Speaker 1: be yeah, um, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: But yeah, all right.
Speaker 1: But, but so far Michael, yeah, not, not
Speaker 1: terrible, Michael's okay.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: Hmm, I don't like the name.
Speaker 2: Hmm, hmm, okay.
Speaker 1: Wow, all right.
Speaker 2: Hmm.
Speaker 1: Oh, wow, that took a turn.
Speaker 1: Um, okay, so uh, I, I know I, yeah, I know
Speaker 1: I I can relate to being a man with the
Speaker 1: hungers, but I, yeah, all right, let's I
Speaker 1: hate to take a step back.
Speaker 1: Let's go back to the profile of number two
Speaker 1: again, real quick.
Speaker 2: Uh-huh, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: Okay, boy, all right.
Speaker 1: The first one started so benign and these
Speaker 1: last two have gotten gradually more
Speaker 1: disturbing and I think the last is the
Speaker 1: worst I've at most.
Speaker 1: But it sounds like he's just really into
Speaker 1: his pet and that's just going to be a thing
Speaker 1: where he's got, you know, bumper stickers
Speaker 1: like my other.
Speaker 1: My other car is a Pomeranian and Well,
Speaker 1: again, I don't think the guy's fucking his
Speaker 1: dog, I think he just has an unhealthy
Speaker 1: relationship with the dog.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right.
Speaker 1: So Biality, okay, all right, fair enough,
Speaker 1: all right, but but that is still tame
Speaker 1: compared to oh, let's talk about fucking on
Speaker 1: camera.
Speaker 1: Yeah, is that food?
Speaker 1: Is that a raffle?
Speaker 1: Can I have revels with caramel or pokers
Speaker 1: and billows and whatnot?
Speaker 1: Isn't that what it's called the ones you
Speaker 1: squeeze?
Speaker 1: Isn't that a billow?
Speaker 1: Oh, well.
Speaker 1: Kindling yeah, he's got kindling for that
Speaker 1: ass.
Speaker 1: Yeah, not as bad as the Australian route,
Speaker 1: yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, do you fancy a
Speaker 1: route is?
Speaker 1: My understanding, at least, is that is an
Speaker 1: Australian proposition.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's no good.
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I'm yeah, no, it's upsetting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: I.
Speaker 1: I prefer tickling the tiny man in the boat.
Speaker 1: All right, but so again back to our ranking
Speaker 1: of weirdos.
Speaker 1: So it's really in order.
Speaker 1: Like the guy who has crazy hungers that he
Speaker 1: doesn't define but just lets you know that
Speaker 1: he has hungers.
Speaker 1: That's upsetting.
Speaker 1: There is something going on there.
Speaker 1: And then you have in the same profile
Speaker 1: something about where did people over?
Speaker 1: Like this guy yeah, this is like a Mr
Speaker 1: Mercedes waiting to happen.
Speaker 1: So he is.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you don't want any part of this guy.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is somebody that has.
Speaker 1: He's probably from Eastern Europe and his
Speaker 1: his, his last job was definitely working in
Speaker 1: one of those Eli Roth style hostels.
Speaker 1: Yeah, is he in a milking facility?
Speaker 1: I am in with hunker driving.
Speaker 1: I know where I'm going and this new man
Speaker 1: nowadays are weak and I'm going to run them
Speaker 1: all over.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's.
Speaker 1: There are so much creepy there.
Speaker 1: But the guy talking about like if you want
Speaker 1: to, if you want to, frig on camera or frig
Speaker 1: watching me on camera as I talk about my
Speaker 1: website, he is not worse, but is just a
Speaker 1: different kind of bad.
Speaker 1: So that like dog guy, I think, is like
Speaker 1: you're going to have to talk him off the
Speaker 1: ledge with the dog.
Speaker 1: You're just going to have to, like, tell
Speaker 1: him, like it's weird that you're into your
Speaker 1: dog this much, and you're right, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm not 100% there, but I understand that
Speaker 1: there are a lot of signs that if it did
Speaker 1: turn out that he was into bishiality, it
Speaker 1: would be like, oh, yeah, okay, well, I,
Speaker 1: yeah that there were.
Speaker 1: There were two ways to read it and I did it.
Speaker 1: I read it the way that I hoped it was true.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, and but that's why
Speaker 1: our detective business is going to work so
Speaker 1: well.
Speaker 1: That's right, all right, I feel like that
Speaker 1: is the show.

Speaker 1: rem jobs, more importantly, and then, right,
Speaker 1: wait, well, but look perfect, right, this
Speaker 1: is all good news.

Speaker 1: Yeah, something you know makes you want to
Speaker 1: cozy up with your loved one and get into
Speaker 1: some ferocious making out.
