What is The Dark Parade?

The writer of Lost After Dark and podcast host with the most brings The Dark Parade to your town - a horror podcast with many attractions. The show starts when the sun goes down...

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: 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
