SPEAKER_12

Throughout time, philosophers have befuddledly wondered aloud the answer to one simple question How do you describe salt without saying salty? Today, in this very podcast studio, two non-philosophers will attempt to answer that question with the help of some special guests and the time-tested medium of long form improv. Whether or not that improv will actually have anything to do with the topic at hand is frankly not up in the air. It won't have anything to do with it. But you'll still want to listen anyway. Welcome to Describe Salt. Derek? Yeah. What uh what's what's what have you what food have you made at your job lately? Whoa.

SPEAKER_04

I wanna know. Have we degraded so far? Degraded. From from the beauty that is a funny cold open to just like what food did you make today?

SPEAKER_12

You you're no chef. You make interesting food. I know.

SPEAKER_04

So I made jerk chicken today. I made jerk chicken. Okay. Uh my sous-chef made tomato romano soup. It's delicious. Tomato romano? Yeah, so it's like a creamy tomato soup with like Oh, I think I've had that actually. Croutons and Parmesan.

SPEAKER_12

Yeah. Yeah. No, we'll we'll find something funny. We'll find something funny. Keep going, keep going, keep going. I made salads. Salads? What kind of salads? Could be hey, there's some interesting salads. Yeah, yeah. What kind of salad? What kind of salad?

SPEAKER_04

Wedge salads. Damn it. With blue cheese and bacon and cheese and cucumbers.

SPEAKER_12

Not very funny.

SPEAKER_04

Nope. Uh you've got the uh the old ye old chef salad. Oh.

SPEAKER_12

You've got uh I thought you were saying that you had an old uh ye old medieval chef. Or a connector. That could have been something, but no, it's not, so we have to keep going. Okay, keep going.

SPEAKER_04

Might be the worst intro in history. Um we gotta find it. We gotta find it. A smoked salmon fall salad is on my menu right now.

SPEAKER_12

Smoked salmon fall salad. Yeah, you got like smoking. Okay, we can work with this. We can work with this. We can work with this. So is it um the salad is there's no lettuce. Well, there is. There's no Oh yes, you're right.

SPEAKER_04

Sorry, we're improving. There is no lettuce. There's no lettuce. No.

SPEAKER_12

The salad is uh the the the the river. The salad is there's a there's a bear at a river. Yep. Hey. Smoked smoked salmon salad? Yeah. More like bear bear catching salmon out of a river. That's that's that's a salad for bears.

SPEAKER_03

I am Derek, and this is a podcast that we talk about improv.

SPEAKER_12

Aren't you so glad I found the funny? I did it.

SPEAKER_04

I have never full around.

SPEAKER_12

I've never heard you stretch so far. And I'm Dan, and I also want a podcast about improv.

SPEAKER_04

So this is a podcast called Describe Salt, where we bring on a comedian or comedians every week uh to describe for us what that thing is you put on top of your salmon to make it taste so good.

SPEAKER_12

Yeah. Sometimes maybe a bear's eating the salmon. And then it's uh the if the bear. I'm saying that the water, that the river, the river there's water in the river, and you know, bears stand in the river. So it's actually crazy you bring this up. The water is the salad, the water's the lettuce. Sorry, no. The salmon in the river. It's crazy that you bring this up.

SPEAKER_04

Because with us today, we have famed Bear River experts. John and Jane.

SPEAKER_12

John and Jane, welcome to the podcast. John and Jane. We love having experts of all kinds here on Describe Salt.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Bear Rivers. That's very interesting. Not the Bear River, but like r bears in rivers, right?

SPEAKER_12

You can tell us. You're the ones that know. You're the experts. What kind of experts?

SPEAKER_08

I'm Jane, and um, yes, uh, bears. Uh it's actually a misnomer. Bears do not stand in the river. Oh, they not hover over rivers. Interesting. Yes, they are very advanced.

SPEAKER_09

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, and I'm John, and I'm sorry if I seem a little out of it. I just smoked a whole pack of salmon.

SPEAKER_12

Oh you smoked.

SPEAKER_01

I smoked a whole pack. I've been smoking salmon since before you were born.

SPEAKER_12

And that just the smoke just like gets in your gets in your head and does what?

SPEAKER_01

Are you No, I'm smoking the salmon.

SPEAKER_12

Oh, you're smoking it.

SPEAKER_01

Grind it up. Oh, look at that. Look at that.

SPEAKER_04

That is a that is a that is a pink. Can I smoke any uh uh I actually have a baby upstairs, so it's smoking in a if you want to blow it out the window.

SPEAKER_01

I think salmon's also not good for babies, so yeah, it's pretty bad.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, that makes sense.

SPEAKER_01

Jane, you're more of the expert on like what's good for babies.

SPEAKER_08

Salmon is not too bad. Oh. Um it's mostly something raw fish. I'm really impressed. Mostly from the ocean that that get the mercury in there.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

And the mercury is bad for the babies for sure. Um, but you don't find it in salmon very often. It is very important though, no matter what fish you get, i you have to cook it. Um if if you are having a baby or if you are feeding a baby the salmon.

SPEAKER_12

So you can feed a baby salmon.

SPEAKER_08

You can feed a baby anything. Whether they can swallow it or whether it's good for them is the question. Interesting.

SPEAKER_01

And that reminds me of a joke. You can feed a baby, but you can't tune a fish.

SPEAKER_12

Oh.

SPEAKER_01

Are you I love improv also.

SPEAKER_12

I really John. I actually feel like this tuna fish joke is really vibing with me right now. Yeah. Did you also smoke some fish? He smoked the salmon.

SPEAKER_01

I I You gotta cook that thing before it cooks a salmon.

SPEAKER_12

I will I will give you one there. John. Always on.

SPEAKER_01

John's always on. That's what they call me on John.

SPEAKER_12

What what what okay? How do you feel about is I feel like I feel like I'm doing a bad job of explaining this and I'm so scared.

SPEAKER_01

I feel like you haven't talked about it.

SPEAKER_12

That's probably fine. Okay. I just want to try explaining it. Okay, please. Because we have experts. We have Bear River experts. I'm still not a hundred percent sure what that means. But we'll get to it. We'll get to it. I just want to know if you think that it makes sense that a a smoked a salad holy sh I can't I don't know how to say this. A salad to humans is like uh a salmon in a river to bears. Is that what you were going at? That's what I was trying to say, and I finally forgot to say it out loud.

SPEAKER_01

In like we eat 'em.

SPEAKER_04

In like you'd eat 'em.

SPEAKER_12

Um it's more like the really but but the water is the lettuce. Wouldn't that be more of a water is the lettuce. Because it gets tossed.

SPEAKER_04

But it would be a good thing.

SPEAKER_12

They toss the s the salmon around in the water, just like you tossed stuff around in the lettuce. I want to hear from our experts.

SPEAKER_08

I think you've really got something there. Thank you. Well, it makes sense to me. It's not something that I would go with, but it is something. Okay. Um you have the heart of a researcher, I think. And you you might want to consider a future in bare riverology.

SPEAKER_12

Okay. Uh hey, I'm always looking for new new little rabbit hole obsessions.

SPEAKER_08

That being said, I do think it's a dumb idea. Oh.

SPEAKER_12

It's less of an idea and more okay.

SPEAKER_08

But your heart is in the right place. Yes. Hey, that's all I needed. That's all I needed. I just needed someone to tell me that my heart was in the right place. Because the bears I think the bears, even though it's not what you're saying, they might agree with you. They would also be wrong, but I just thank you, Jane. Thank you. There's something there. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Jane, how long have you been studying Bear River all the time?

SPEAKER_08

Oh, more than six months. Uh a long, long time. More than six months.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Uh how about you, John?

SPEAKER_01

Um I'm sorry. I'm just kind of like reeling in it right now because uh I'm sorry. I don't the Sam is hitting and it makes me kind of emotional sometimes. I was thinking about something stupid I said yesterday. And then also Jane. I that's really nice what you said to Dan.

SPEAKER_08

Well, I think it's true.

SPEAKER_01

It sounds a lot like what you said to me.

SPEAKER_08

What?

SPEAKER_01

And I'm just feeling a little bit weird about that because that because you saying that my heart was in the right place is the whole freaking reason I started studying bear riverology. And it feels like that's just kind of a diamond dozen saying that you're saying to anybody. This person hasn't shown any but again. Is this a can can there only be a certain number of no no no no no no it's just that you don't have like the vibes. Maybe your heart's in the right place, but you don't have like the vibes, and I just I'm sorry, I'm getting like worked up. I need to. John.

SPEAKER_08

I'm I'm really sorry that you feel that way, and I'm sorry that my words hurt you.

SPEAKER_01

See, and you're doing this thing again where you talk so nice, so sweet, but it's just freaking infuriating.

SPEAKER_12

Whoa. Are you guys I don't want to get in the middle of anything? Are you guys like a couple? Or are you guys just like the workers?

SPEAKER_04

I I think it brings me to the city. I'm a male lesbian. That makes a lot of sense. What about I don't know. Okay. Let's divulge topics that are relevant.

SPEAKER_01

I just like you guys are fighting. Like you've been married. I'm sorry, no, I'm bringing I'm bringing personal things in. I just thought this was like a cool podcast, so I thought I could smoke a couple rolls of salmon, but apparently not. You want to talk about my job and John is 1020 p.m. No problem. Yeah, so I got my degree from the University of Ohio, which is crazy because it's not even anywhere near the Bear River.

SPEAKER_04

Um Can I ask you a question about salmon?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Is it raw when you put it in the paper and then gets cooked by the lighting of the cigar?

SPEAKER_12

I'm glad you're bringing this up because I do, even though I did go back to talking about bears and salads and such, I am just fully interested in how you smoke salmon. No, no, no. I'm sorry, this is Jane you aren't into. It looks like you look down on it a lot.

SPEAKER_08

I used to, and I had to s I had to quit. I had to quit. Um You know uh my best friend from years ago had a a very you don't have to talk about it if you want to.

SPEAKER_02

It's alright, we it's a safe space. Yeah. You can leave.

SPEAKER_12

You can we can we can talk about bears. We can talk about bears and rivers. It's just that Smokey was very important to me.

SPEAKER_09

And he's sorry, the bear? Smokey the bear? Or a salmon named Smokey. He fell off the deep end because of Smokey Salmon. Oh, the bear.

SPEAKER_12

And I just Derek, Derek, I think I think we're less than two degrees away from Smokey the Bear right now. I think so too. That's sick. That's so dope. Okay, sorry, sorry, continue, continue.

SPEAKER_01

Wait, I also just want to clarify something. It's actually Smokey Bear. I looked this up recently, and it's not Smokey the Bear, and you've all been Mandela effect, and it's just Smokey Bear. Anyways, Jane, I am so sorry. I'm just I'm tripping so hard right now. Go ahead and continue.

SPEAKER_08

Look, it's not something that I usually talk about. Um, it's not something I like to talk about.

SPEAKER_01

And it's can bring it up on every podcast we go on that one.

SPEAKER_08

Everyone has their own battle. Everyone has their You know what? Someone asked me a question, John. And I'm I'm not just going to be rude and not answer the question. So I I was trying to explain why I no longer partake. Um I don't judge the people who do. I just I I just can't do it anymore. Uh you know, what after what happened to Smokey, and he had his own issues, and I couldn't just hey, hey, it's all right, bud.

SPEAKER_12

I'm sorry. It's all right. Maybe we should just change the subject. Smokey Bear was was a important figure in all of our lives.

SPEAKER_04

Did he die? Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Oh no, I assumed. No.

SPEAKER_12

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_08

Um but he did have to go into retirement and um he's not doing well. Um he has a couple of caretakers and they're on hospice?

SPEAKER_12

It's the morphine or just just caretakers. Very he's either on hospice or he's just rich.

SPEAKER_08

No, no, no. He cannot he cannot he's not self-reliant. Okay. Let's say. And uh he he lives a very difficult life right now. So our prayers are with him.

SPEAKER_04

I feel like I must apologize for asking if you two were a couple. I feel like that made things very tense. But you must understand that you guys hate each other. You know that, right?

unknown

No.

SPEAKER_01

Why would you say that? What the fuck?

SPEAKER_12

Derek, you just finished saying I'm sorry for making this the situation more tense. And then you accused them of accusing each other.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. I feel I But is it some kind of joke podcast? No, no, no. Let's just talk about let's just talk about so. Okay. You can tune a fish, but you can't tune a piano. Wait.

SPEAKER_04

What was this man's name? No, no, no. Listen, there's a reason I bring this up. I feel like there's something we can get to here. I feel like we can get to something. Oh my god, hold on. I have the talking stick. I have the talking stick. I feel like we could get deep here. Because listen, I have a degree in psychology, so like I feel like we could really we could settle this. So you got a job as a chef? Yeah. So John. What happened to make you feel so frustrated with Jane?

SPEAKER_12

And again, you don't have to go into your personal lives. But I feel like we should create content for the podcast.

SPEAKER_04

I really think that there is a deep that was a deep pull. You two are obviously best friends from some life who have fallen away because of business. And I think we can rekindle that friendship.

SPEAKER_08

I I honestly don't know where you're getting this, Derek. I John and I have a very good working relationship and a very um say amicable personal relationship.

SPEAKER_01

Amicable personal relationship.

SPEAKER_08

You know, we everyone has their struggles now and then, Derek. I I don't know what it's like. At least four months.

SPEAKER_12

I feel like you literally did want to start. I really feel like you're trying to.

SPEAKER_08

I understand that podcasts are uh I mean this is our culture now is is all about the drama on these podcasts, and I I know that he's telling me I know it's it's something that a lot of people go for. It's kind of a lowest common denominator type of approach. And um I don't really I don't really stand by it. Okay. Okay.

SPEAKER_01

But uh Yeah, she doesn't partake in anything that that she likes. And and I mean and and can I hold your hand while I say this? I I really thought that we thought this was gonna be different.

SPEAKER_12

You know, how's it?

SPEAKER_01

Do you wanna know how it works? Do you wanna know how it works in ten words or less? Alright. Alright. You take the salmon, you run it under hot water.

SPEAKER_03

Keep going.

SPEAKER_01

So you can the skin off of it. Because the skin, you gotta pick out the seeds and stems, pick out the skin.

SPEAKER_03

I love the salmon seeds to make really good snacks.

SPEAKER_01

Get the seeds, get the stems out of there. And then you're probably gonna want to like cut it up a little bit. Yeah. Like uh, like not what's it sashimi size? Is this triggering? I won't ask you.

SPEAKER_08

No, no, it's not triggering. It's fine. It's fine.

SPEAKER_01

You are such a peach. Um, so you take that, you put it in the grinder, you get that that good goosy stuff in there, you grind it up. It's like, why are you it's like ground beef. It's like ground beef.

SPEAKER_04

It's like ground beef. What's your problem? No, it's fine. It's disgusting, it's wonderful.

SPEAKER_01

You take okay, now you better not have discarded the skins. I know I told you to and toss them. I hope you tossed them not in the trash, though. Because you will need those. You lay that out. Got it? Yeah. Okay. You take the good gooshy ground salmon. Yeah. You you write that in the skin, you roll it up tight.

SPEAKER_08

You smoke it in the tight, not too tight. Not too tight, though.

SPEAKER_01

Not too tight though, because then you're like really trying to trying to suck that down. And then it is nice, it is like cooling, and you just and it's like you get water in your lungs a little bit, and it's kind of nice, because then you can be like, I'm so one with the Bear River. Um, and then you just suck, you just suck down that goosy gooshy, goosey gooshy salmon air, and you feel good.

SPEAKER_04

So you just said you just suck down the gooshy gooshy air, and then you feel good. Okay.

I regretted that as soon as it came out of here. How how will it feel knowing that I have portrayed her now as a character?

SPEAKER_08

Um I don't know. I don't know that she'll ever find out.

SPEAKER_04

We'll just let that one slide. She's not gonna listen. That was arguably one of the weirder scenes I've been a part of. I don't know if I don't know if I've ever like my s my intestines were shaking. I think it's the best way to describe it.

SPEAKER_01

Because the lotion's that good, or what?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Well, uh no. Just I think when you mentioned your real wife, I was like, I was like, oh my god. I'm like, oh, now I'm imagining that I'm under the covers. Like, like I imagined like I was like down like at your feet, like reaching up and holding your hand, like asleep, like in your like a like Ebenezer Scrooge style like pajamas.

SPEAKER_08

From Desert Star Scrooge. Yeah, of course.

SPEAKER_04

That's the only one that exists, obviously. And then he's just like wearing one of those like eye nuts things.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

You think you've seen a Christmas Carol, but not like this.

SPEAKER_04

Not like this. Not with the man under the covers holding his hands.

SPEAKER_11

Not with Derek playing himself.

SPEAKER_08

It's one of the difficult things for me with improv, it's like I gotta say what's on my mind. And then it just comes out, and I'm like, I didn't want to.

SPEAKER_01

That's my real human wife.

SPEAKER_08

That's like I didn't want to merge reality with if you'd like an uncomfortable weird situation.

SPEAKER_12

Bleep out the name case. I could. Let's do it.

SPEAKER_01

That could be nice. I really like and I respect and I think that maybe out of respect to c we should probably bleach it.

SPEAKER_12

Oh my gosh. Oh, that was beautiful singing that no one will ever hear.

SPEAKER_01

Wait, I'm gonna do the Zara Larson riff, but it's gonna be so you can't prove it.

SPEAKER_12

Oh it was really good. But there was nothing to bleed. There was nothing to bleed.

SPEAKER_06

It's yes, yeah, and you said it was improv.

SPEAKER_04

So you guys know the deal. We had someone else on this podcast. You don't? We had a friend Sophie on last week, and uh she described Salt for Us. She described Salt for Us using one word as as is supposed to be done. You guys were like sharing a weird look I don't know what just happened.

SPEAKER_08

I just can I just say first, please. Yeah um after the first bit where you guys talk and and we sit here awkwardly watching, um let's pull back this curtain. Aside from that, talking about salt is my favorite part of the podcast. That's awesome.

SPEAKER_12

So we're about to get into it.

SPEAKER_04

I was literally going to.

SPEAKER_12

We're about to get into the stretch of time where that happens.

SPEAKER_04

I know. Yeah. You were just excited, you were expressing your excitement? No, I was sarcastic. You being sarcastic? Uh, this is an insane episode already, and we've just begun. So the word that she gave us, I just don't get it.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_04

She gave us the word sharp.

SPEAKER_01

Sharp.

SPEAKER_04

Sharp.

SPEAKER_12

So to you two.

SPEAKER_01

That sounds like a you problem, Sophie.

SPEAKER_12

Oh, I thought you were gonna say me. I was like, no, that's why you're here.

SPEAKER_01

That's the whole point. You guys need to figure that out, because I don't know what that's about.

SPEAKER_12

But how how good of a how good of a job does that word do at describing salt?

SPEAKER_08

Well, it's sharp, like salt is crystallized, right?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

It has to have sharp edges.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

If if you're a bug.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Oh. Are you a bug?

SPEAKER_06

We find ourselves as bugs. Ow! It's so sharp! Ooh! Is that we find ourselves back in the studio? Welcome back to the studio.

SPEAKER_08

Rio's like, I don't know how to do this, but I'm gonna do it. Nope, didn't work.

SPEAKER_04

Very nice. Uh that was an insane scene. Congratulations. Very good. Very good. I didn't even get to say what kind of bug I was. No one cares.

SPEAKER_01

We find ourselves as bugs a second time, apologetically. I'm a draft-necked weasel. Stop talking about a bug.

SPEAKER_06

This guy's not even a bug, he's a weasel.

SPEAKER_01

We find ourselves as bugs beating up a weasel. No, take it, little weasel.

SPEAKER_06

Get it like that. Stop a little bit. Let us throw the hard bug access.

SPEAKER_04

That's the end of that scene.

SPEAKER_08

I like how we talked about how we would end scenes right after they start before we started this. And then we've got to be a few. And now we've done it like five times.

SPEAKER_12

We sure have done that. Oh my. Well, sharp. So sharp, it's it's are you saying that it's only good if you're a bug? It's only a good word?

SPEAKER_01

I just I've never experienced sharp cut from salt.

SPEAKER_08

Does it have to be a cut? Like, does it have to be cut inducing to be sharp? Like you could take a sharp turn. Yeah. That's also true. That's true. That's true. Like it could just be a sharp angle.

SPEAKER_12

I was gonna say that the thing that that rem the the word sharp in context of salt reminds me of is the phrase salt and putting salt in a wound.

SPEAKER_08

Oh yeah. Yeah, you could have a sharp pain from having salt in your- That's like so toddler though.

SPEAKER_01

If you're well, I don't know, it's how I don't know, you're like getting salt putting your wound, you're like, oh, it's sharp.

SPEAKER_12

Well, but you to get the wound, you had to get a sharp thing. That's what I'm saying, is like a sharp thing cut.

SPEAKER_01

Just saying what it reminds me of. Even from I not my father's daughter.

SPEAKER_04

It could also be It could also be like when you eat too much salt, it's like a sharp feeling in your mouth.

SPEAKER_01

I was gonna say I did have you know maybe if you eat too much salt, yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, it's a little short.

SPEAKER_01

I had a friend in college who had a salt lamp and she ate it. Whoa, what? Over the course of the school year.

SPEAKER_04

Like a Himalayan salt lamp?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, she had like a Himalayan line. She's still alive. Yeah, no, she's good. So I could ask her if that like if that sliced up her mouth real good, but I realized it like second semester, I was like, hey, is your salt lamp? Did you get a new salt lamp? It's like way smaller, and she was like kind of standoffish about it, and then she did eventually admit to me that she licks it a couple times before bed. She licks it?

SPEAKER_11

She licks it a couple of things. I'm so serious.

SPEAKER_01

She licks it a couple times before before bed, and she's like, Yeah, I'm on my like sixth assault lamp. What?

SPEAKER_09

What? Yeah. That person is like a big thing.

SPEAKER_01

It's like one every couple of years.

SPEAKER_12

I have news for you. Your roommate was a horse.

SPEAKER_08

This is like an animal that goes to a salt lick and just like weird.

SPEAKER_04

We find ourselves in a dormitory where someone has just found out their roommate is a horse.

SPEAKER_12

Nothing.

SPEAKER_13

Okay.

SPEAKER_08

Guys, uh everybody knows she's a horse. Why? How are you just figuring this out right now? No one had figured it out yet.

SPEAKER_04

I'm another UBS driver. I've got a bushel of hay.

SPEAKER_12

Wow, that must be for somewhere else.

SPEAKER_04

Uh no, it says it's for Jenny the horse.

SPEAKER_12

I hate my life. Amy, you literally could sleep in your own bedroom instead of on the community couch. Amy, I can't sleep in my own bedroom.

SPEAKER_08

My roommate is a monster.

SPEAKER_12

Wait, you know that Elizabeth is a monster?

SPEAKER_01

What?

SPEAKER_03

Everyone, I'm really tired. I have a test in the morning.

SPEAKER_12

Elizabeth, stop following me. I will eat your brains. Oh. Wait, so you know that I'm a horse and you knew that Elizabeth was a monster. What does that make you, Marsha? One.

SPEAKER_06

Heck of a lay. Dad, please don't watch the podcast. I told you not to, and then you deliberately went to Spotify and you looked up the scribes all. Jake Ulis Vintage comma, Real of Fever. You looked it up, and I told you not to do that.

SPEAKER_08

Real Zoe. I'm 26 years old. I can say I'm looking. Let's keep it clean, you guys. I was not expecting that.

SPEAKER_04

I was so ready to keep that scene going for a long time. You put the craziest button on that scene. What a school. You got a horse? British UPS drivers.

SPEAKER_07

And Amy's just like there.

SPEAKER_04

Oh yeah, we didn't discover what Amy is. She's just tired. Yeah, Amy's a ghost hunter.

SPEAKER_09

Were all of them ghosts? What if all of them were ghosts?

SPEAKER_12

She just knows how to track things in general. Wow, that was fun. Okay. Um Did you just say what if we're all ghosts?

SPEAKER_01

What if all of the characters are ghosts? What if it was the same dorm, same scene, but they were also all ghosts? Ooh.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, we know. Oh.

SPEAKER_09

You guys, I'm not ghost hunting right now. Uh I have a delivery of uh ectoplasm.

SPEAKER_04

Anybody order?

unknown

Not mine.

SPEAKER_09

Alright. What? Okay.

SPEAKER_08

It's really late for deliveries. Why are you doing this now? You couldn't wait till the morning. Round the clock. Round the clock, baby. That's the motto of UPS.

SPEAKER_12

UPS. Round the clock.

SPEAKER_08

I didn't ask for UPS. I asked for FedEx.

SPEAKER_12

Hey, uh, FedEx here. I've got some ectoplasm. Oh, that one's mine. Oh, okay. Here you go.

SPEAKER_08

But I asked for FedEx. Did you get my ectoplasm and I got yours? Let me take a look. Oh, this one's green. Mine was red. Oh, mine is red. Why did I get UPS and you got FedEx? I wanted FedEx.

SPEAKER_12

That's the motto of FedEx. You get what you get. FedEx. You get what you get.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, I love FedEx drivers.

SPEAKER_04

Bye. Thank you. Hey, says the Ghostbusters. Oh, that was a crazy scream. Dude, you're putting the greatest buttons.

SPEAKER_12

This is a good thing to know about Rio, actually. Is that we were just talking about this earlier today.

SPEAKER_01

That's my catchphrase. Real fever. Buttons.

SPEAKER_12

No. I was gonna say I was gonna say that you would be one of a goal of yours in life is to be a scream queen. Buttons!

SPEAKER_08

Oh Dan's trying to get a like a realistic.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, yes, my I'm trying to get back into a conversation. Yes, my dream is to be a scream queen.

SPEAKER_04

Okay. So like you want to be in a situation in which you're being chased down by a murderous killer of some sort. In a movie. Rio is an actor. Oh, sorry. I take everything incredibly literally. That would actually be sick. And I feel like you would fit in great. Do you want to be in the movie Scream? That'd be so cool. Scream eight or apparently scream seven.

SPEAKER_01

I I literally wrote a parody musical of Scream, and I feel like I'm not gonna see the new one. Like that's how kind of like I'm kind of about it.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, the last couple have kind of just gone downhill.

SPEAKER_01

But we don't need three white men talking about movies right now.

SPEAKER_04

Oh my god. I literally have a horror movie review podcast. Apologies. But that's only two. Apologies. Well, sometimes it's three. I have guests on. You were guest on it. That's true. Long time ago. Before we ever started this podcast, actually. That's true. Like two weeks before. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

You can talk about movies. I don't mean to say that.

SPEAKER_12

We can talk about what?

SPEAKER_01

You can talk about movies.

SPEAKER_12

Oh. Can we?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, you can.

SPEAKER_12

I'd like to talk about movies and stuff. What's your favorite movie?

SPEAKER_01

Favorite movie?

SPEAKER_12

Yeah. I feel like I don't know.

SPEAKER_04

I just quoted Scream.

SPEAKER_01

I think my Letterbox top four is Do I follow you on Letterboxd?

SPEAKER_04

I don't think I do. What's Letterboxd? I gotta follow you.

SPEAKER_01

Is that a movie reviewing at my only social media?

SPEAKER_04

Social media for reviewing movies.

SPEAKER_01

It's uh Jim Carrey's The Mask.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, wild.

SPEAKER_01

Um the horror movie X. The horror movie Heritage. No, I like X better.

SPEAKER_04

Whoa.

SPEAKER_01

I know for a theater girl, I like X.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, we need to take this conversation off the line, and you probably need to come on my horror podcast because we'd love to, actually, genuinely. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And I'm sorry, I insulted the respectable genre of men who talk about this.

SPEAKER_04

You know anyway, so those sorry, yes, continue.

SPEAKER_01

And then Creature from the Black Lagoon. I think is my top top four.

SPEAKER_04

Fantastic choices.

SPEAKER_12

Fantastic choice.

SPEAKER_08

It's really interesting.

SPEAKER_12

Yeah. And Cars 2.

SPEAKER_01

That's the only one.

SPEAKER_12

When I was like trying to figure out what's your favorite, I was trying to figure out if I knew your favorite movie, and for some reason the only one that popped into my mind was Cars 2.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know why. Oh my gosh.

SPEAKER_08

Rio disagrees, and I know that's fine. I know that mine. Don't look at me like you've never heard that before.

SPEAKER_01

I really like Cars 2.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

It's the only one I've like consistently re-watched. It's probably my most watched Pixar movie. I love Cars 2. That's pretty wild. That's Cars 2.

SPEAKER_04

One of my favorite things about Carson and Letterboxd. So Letterboxd at the end of the year will do like a review, like it will like show you who your most watched director or actor was. Uh-huh. And one year I went through and binged every single car short, like all the Mater shorts. And I vlogged each one.

SPEAKER_01

If I'm lying, I'm crying.

SPEAKER_04

If I'm lying, I'm crying. And so good. Mater and the Ghost Light.

SPEAKER_01

I was just gonna say Mary to Ghost Light for it. Can I come on your podcast and talk about Mater and the Ghost Light?

SPEAKER_04

Freaking do it. Let's do it. Schedule right now. Anyway.

SPEAKER_01

I love booking podcasts.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, while you're on that podcast, I love being on a podcast talking about a different podcast. This is great.

SPEAKER_12

This is exactly what podcasts were invented for. To talk about each other. Anyway.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. So at the end of the day, who's the guy who plays him? Uh Larry the Cable Guy. Larry the Cable Guy. At the end of the year, my top watched actor was Larry the Cable Guy.

SPEAKER_11

Daniel Whitney. Is that his real name? That's his real name. I didn't know that. Wow.

SPEAKER_08

Leave it to Dan. Yeah. To bring out the facts.

SPEAKER_12

Oh, this Dan. Yeah. Not Daniel Whitney. Not Daniel Whitney.

SPEAKER_01

All Dan's know all other Danes. Do you have to dance?

SPEAKER_12

You know how Sorry, I don't know if you're going to be able to do that.

SPEAKER_01

That's one small step for Dan.

SPEAKER_08

Is this all Dan's one big step for Dankind? Does this include all Daniels who don't always go by Dan? Oh, of course it does.

SPEAKER_11

Oh.

SPEAKER_08

Of course it does. You don't have to go by Dan. That's true. So it includes all Daniels, even if they don't go by Dan at all.

SPEAKER_12

Indeed. Because at some point they could become a Dan. It happens to a lot of people. It does happen, yeah. I was never a Dan until 18. Were you Danny? I've never been Danny, ever. No. But I was Daniel for a long, long time. And then it just switched to Dan. I think now I'm still Daniel in my family. But uh just Dan. I thought it was a bad thing. No, it's just my dad. It's just my dad that calls me about my house. You can have that. Oh, I'm still. And like sometimes I like my grandpa. Okay. I'm so happy. But he's just really bad with names mostly. And that was his dad's name, so it gets confusing.

SPEAKER_04

But wild. So Larry the Cable Guy. I when I was a kid, I I my we had a VHS copy of The Cable Guy with Jim Carrey. Yes. And I thought it was the same person. I did too for a long time.

SPEAKER_12

I thought that was like his first role, and that was like how he got his name. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

And now I have Jim Carrey tattooed on my leg. Do you? Mm-hmm. What? I have a panel from the True Chapter.

SPEAKER_06

I think I used to leg reveal. That's right there.

SPEAKER_04

Put it in front of the camera. I don't want to actually show you my calf right now. This is terrible audio content. That's Jim Carrey, dog. He's walking up the city.

SPEAKER_06

There he is. Show me your calf.

SPEAKER_04

Oh my god. It's him walking up the stairs at the end of Truman Show. That's right, cool. Sorry, you you're at the bad angle too.

SPEAKER_08

I know the I know the image in my head. I like the Truman Show.

SPEAKER_04

Truman Show is one of my favorite movies, if not my favorite movie of all time. Except for Lala Land. They kind of switch back and forth. Oh, really? I did not know that. I love La La Land with all of my heart. Oh. Watching the two of them almost love each other for the rest of them lives. It just really gets my goat. Hopeless Romantic. That's me. I feel like the panelists turned to me. We are staring at you. You are all staring at me. I feel like all of you hate La La.

SPEAKER_12

No, no. We find ourselves at a tribunal where a man must answer for his favorite movie being La La Land.

SPEAKER_08

Alright. The honorable Judge Alpheus presiding. Take a seat, take a seat. We don't need to be formal here.

SPEAKER_11

Okay, actually. You sick freak.

SPEAKER_01

The judge is talking.

SPEAKER_12

I will have order. I will have order. Sorry. Please state your name into the microphone.

SPEAKER_06

Freddie Fazbear.

SPEAKER_08

Freddie Fazbear? Your Honor. That's what I want to do. Your honor. What? What? All these interruptions, really? Okay. I will. My client deserves the utmost respect for you.

SPEAKER_12

I just smoked so much salmon. Yeah, it's it's it's sorry. Disregard the torch.

SPEAKER_06

They told me I had to be here.

SPEAKER_12

You have to be here. We need a security guard. It's not that important for this.

SPEAKER_04

Yes. Oh, you really smoked that salmon. My name is actually Freddie Pazbearer, not to be confused with the Pizzeria. It's fine. It's fine.

SPEAKER_12

Alright. Look, I I I think this this can be done quickly. We can do this quick. We can get it over with. Please, would you mind telling me what you claim your favorite movie to be?

SPEAKER_04

Well, it's obviously the modern classic La La Land by Damien Giselle. Sonaba.

SPEAKER_12

Your Honor. Your Honor. What? What objection? Objection on what grounds?

SPEAKER_08

The grounds of Brooklyn, Your Honor.

SPEAKER_04

What about Brooklyn? Don't you dare. Don't you dare.

SPEAKER_01

The second biggest offense is liking newsies, you sick freak.

SPEAKER_08

My client is innocent until proven guilty. And your bias is not an acceptable form of law enforcement.

SPEAKER_12

You want to question my bias? You want to question my bias here at the tribunal? We are at the tribunal. You could have brought this up weeks beforehand, but instead, you want to bring up the grounds of Brooklyn on a tribunal about a movie about Los Angeles. You hear this right now? You hear the women weeping in the back of the room.

SPEAKER_08

Judge, you were not clear in the affidavit when it was turned in. You were not forthcoming with your biases on this matter.

SPEAKER_12

Well, it seems I don't know you as well as I was as well as I thought I did. My ears are attorney.

SPEAKER_08

We don't have to make this personal appearance.

SPEAKER_12

I agree. I agree. I find the the defendant guilty on all charges of having a bad favorite movie. It is a travesty. And I will be sentencing him to three years without a letterbox. Case closed.

SPEAKER_04

That would actually and that's it. That would actually kill me. I love letterbox so much, dude. My movie watching is gone up to that. That being said, La La Land is a great movie.

SPEAKER_12

Yeah, it's a lovely movie. I do like La La Land. I totally really like that movie. Oh, we didn't make a joke about. Oh, wait, sorry. It's not La La Land. It's Moonlight.

SPEAKER_04

Oh. That would've killed. That would have killed. That joke for like 20% of our audience would have been really funny. Everyone else would have been like, what? I feel like it's a lot of.

SPEAKER_12

That's pretty big.

SPEAKER_04

I think it's over 30.

SPEAKER_12

The Oscars. Moonlight was great. Every three years, something happens at the Oscars that everyone knows about.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, like the slap.

SPEAKER_12

The slap. That means we're due for one this year. That's true. That is exciting. It's approximately every three years. Was it three years ago that the slap happened? I think it's four actually.

SPEAKER_01

Predictions. What's going to happen in the year?

SPEAKER_12

Yeah, prediction. What's the thing? What's the thing that everyone in the country is going to know about? No, it's coming up. It's coming up in like two weeks. It's this weekend. It's this weekend. Wow. Which is bad because I still have two movies to watch.

SPEAKER_08

I think someone's going to collapse on stage.

SPEAKER_12

Whoa. Okay. Next prediction. Who? I don't know. Whose medical history are you calling it?

SPEAKER_08

Who's up for awards?

SPEAKER_04

Timothy Chalonet is going to collapse, I'm sure.

SPEAKER_06

Timothy Chalonet is going to collapse.

SPEAKER_04

Stellan Starsgard. He's pretty old. Oh, he's pretty old. He totally collapsed.

SPEAKER_01

Who's the most collapsible Oscar nominee?

SPEAKER_04

This is a crazy conversation you're wrapping up. How about he up for this? What was I doing? Oh, yeah, it was uh the one about family uh sentimental value. Sentimental value. That was good. That was really good.

SPEAKER_12

How about how about not? I like I like the idea of it being Stellan Skarsgard that this thing happens to, but not I don't want Stellan Skarsgard to collapse. No, meaning that's the same. So what's a thing that he could do? Yeah, I don't either.

SPEAKER_04

I know he's gonna walk on stage drunk and tell Timothy Chalamet that he's in love with him because of his performance in Marty Supreme. Timothy.

SPEAKER_08

Now you're just trying to like be weird. But it's kind of true.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, yeah, that's not a genuine portion. That's not a genuine thing that could have.

SPEAKER_12

Let's workshop this. What do you think Stellan Skarsgard could realistically do? He could trip. He could trip and like almost fall. That happened to uh Jennifer Lawrence. That was a lot of people. Yeah, like Jennifer Lawrence. I just want like a positive thing so badly.

SPEAKER_01

Stellan, yeah, something awesome and exciting that the internet would freak out about that's good.

SPEAKER_04

And stop talking about all the shit we are talking about currently. Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Stellan Skarsgard.

SPEAKER_04

Let's all think about Stellin Skarsgard for a while. I'm on my own. Okay, so in order for something about him, he would have to win, right? Yeah, you would have to win something. He would have to win. Or he's going to win.

SPEAKER_12

Or he loses and he does something when they have all five of them on screen at once.

SPEAKER_08

He leaves.

SPEAKER_12

He leaves. Mike. Just immediately leaves.

SPEAKER_08

He sprints out. And leaves.

SPEAKER_12

Just absolutely, and he's doing this. He's like waiting. And then they announce it and he just runs out of the theater as fast as he can.

SPEAKER_08

I like that image. And then we never see him again. Absolutely. But it would be really awesome if he did like just like just get up as if he was like, well, at this point in me being here.

SPEAKER_04

At the State of the Union? Didn't some guy like yell and then got taken off and he hasn't been seen since? Hasn't been seen since? Yeah, they like got rid of him. They they kicked Al Green out, but I don't they they've seen Al Green since. I don't know. You don't trust anything in the internet nowadays. Uh if I used AI, I would probably do an AI video of uh Stone Scarzheart telling Marty Supreme Timothy Shalmay that he loved his performance and is in love with him. I'm glad you're not allowed to use AI in any. And then running. And then running out.

SPEAKER_12

And the running.

SPEAKER_08

You're not allowed to use AI.

SPEAKER_12

No. It's just a house rule. It's not like a big thing. It's just like a little silly. He gets in legal trouble when he uses AI. Don't say that.

SPEAKER_04

Don't incriminate me. Two episodes in a row, you're incriminating me. In the last episode, you incriminated me too. I think that it's time. It's time. I think it's time. Oh, it's time. Well. Unless anybody has any anecdotes. Just keep bringing this up.

SPEAKER_12

Does anybody have any anecdotes they want to share before we get into the meat of the episode?

SPEAKER_08

Just in general, anecdote? Any anecdote? This is a running thing at this point.

SPEAKER_04

I'm interviewing, I'm I'm doing an interview for for That Was Horrible Tomorrow, where we're interviewing a guy named Brett Brett Bent Bentman. Sorry if I got your name wrong. He just released is Brett Bentman. I think so. Yeah, for B22 Films. It was totally on a whim. I reached out to their Instagram after watching a movie. I feel like I can't tell you how I felt about the movie because I'm interviewing tomorrow. Um but we watched his version.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, that's incriminating.

SPEAKER_04

It's called Betty's Revenge. It's a movie about Betty Boop being a serial killer. And then we're public domain. I got that guy. Oh, this is like if you guys it's the same studio, right? It's not they're partnered with that same studio.

SPEAKER_12

But point is, I'm interviewing him tomorrow, and every fiber of my being is struggling to not just be like, so you have any anecdotes, man?

SPEAKER_01

Any anecdotes?

SPEAKER_08

This is the thing that When you ask for anecdotes, what are you hoping for?

SPEAKER_12

That's what I'm wondering.

SPEAKER_08

Are you hoping that someone like brings up an antidote anecdote and then makes a I've brought an antidote to function?

SPEAKER_06

Did you need an antidote?

SPEAKER_03

I did get poison three.

SPEAKER_06

What seems to be troubling you?

SPEAKER_03

I've got a rumbly tummy.

SPEAKER_04

Do you have any metabol?

SPEAKER_06

SPEAKER_04

That was the most like fifth grade improv scene I think I've been a part of since like fifth grade.

SPEAKER_10

Fifth grade?

SPEAKER_06

Fifth graders don't know about meta musle.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, like beginner improv in high school.

SPEAKER_07

I just couldn't. I I was like, what is happening in this?

SPEAKER_04

Alright, well, it is now time. It is time. Thankfully. It's time. Well, you don't want to talk about Lala Land?

SPEAKER_08

I don't know what it's time for, but we gotta move around. Real.

SPEAKER_12

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Yes.

SPEAKER_12

Please take a step up to our sodium podium.

SPEAKER_01

It's kinda high up here.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. We raise it after every episode, so it's even higher and higher.

SPEAKER_12

Yeah. And if you would be so kind, in one word or less, describe assault.

SPEAKER_04

One more time.

SPEAKER_06

It's good. It's good. It's good. Boy, that's all it's good.

SPEAKER_09

The word is good.

SPEAKER_12

I love it. Jake. Can you be can you be afraid of it? Stop crying. Stop crying. The tears are crying.

SPEAKER_01

What are you talking about? Stop crying. I came up with a better word than you did in your two episodes. It's okay.

SPEAKER_08

I only had one episode. This is my second time being here.

SPEAKER_01

It's good.

SPEAKER_08

You call yourself a listener of the podcast. Anyway, Jake, what do you think of that word? What do I think of that word? I think it's not. I think it's two words in one, and that's cheating. That's what I think.

SPEAKER_12

We've always left it up to the proclaimer of the word. Yeah. We we provide the parameters and then cheating. And then it's Rio, stop crying. Rio. Jake. Jake, you made Rio cry by specifically throw it up and I'm gonna do it. Don't ask for my opinion if you don't want the consequences.

SPEAKER_08

By shutting down the fact that you're gonna go to the right. If you want my opinion, I'm gonna give you my opinion. I'm not gonna just Rio here. I'm not just gonna sugarcoat everything. I'm not gonna salt coat everything either. Don't ask for my opinion and then and then shame me for giving you. You know what? You know what?

SPEAKER_12

Jacos, you know what? I won't ask your opinion ever again. Thank you. Oh. Dang, I thought that was gonna sting a little.

SPEAKER_01

Like salt in a wound.

SPEAKER_12

Like salt in a wound. It's gonna sharp a little. So I'm kind of stuck, I guess. We do have to get to the point. We do have to title the episode. How would you spell scud!

unknown

Scood!

SPEAKER_06

Is it apostrophe cheating or not?

SPEAKER_12

It's fine. Like I said, we we provided the parameters and it's up to you.

SPEAKER_01

You didn't like my last. So an apostrophe is not cheating?

SPEAKER_12

No. It's whatever you think is.

SPEAKER_08

Are you asking me for my opinion?

SPEAKER_01

No.

SPEAKER_12

You seemed more hurt that she wasn't asking your opinion than when I said that I wasn't asking for your opinion.

SPEAKER_08

It was more annoying.

SPEAKER_01

How would I spell it?

SPEAKER_09

How would you spell it? Spell it right now.

SPEAKER_12

Um This isn't a trick. If you're asking about apostrophe, yeah, it's not. We just genuinely need to title the episode.

SPEAKER_01

Um well I'm just not sure if it should be like two apostrophes, but that seems to be a good idea.

SPEAKER_08

Like apostrophe, S apostrophe, G.

SPEAKER_12

I've got yeah, I've got my idea when w is is S apostrophe good. It's good. I don't know. Well there is like a little T though. And I don't know like a T. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So you're wondering if it's it's good, but it's all combined into one word. And but it's not cheating.

SPEAKER_12

So you're thinking T apostrophe S apostrophe good. It's good. It's good.

SPEAKER_06

Is that cheating? No.

SPEAKER_12

It's up to you. It's up to you. You didn't use two words. That's a lot of apostrophes.

SPEAKER_06

You can also just say good.

SPEAKER_12

No. That's not what you said though. You said scud.

unknown

It's good.

SPEAKER_01

And that's just part of it. It is.

SPEAKER_04

So I heard it like an SK.

SPEAKER_01

Skud.

SPEAKER_06

Well, it's not scud. Isn't that the dog from Toy Story that almost eats Woody? No. Is it? Scud? Scud. Get over here.

SPEAKER_04

SPEAKER_06
