Shownotes Transcript

We might be drunk, we might be drunk, as long as we are hanging out, you know we might be drunk. Raise a glass, let's talk shit, pep heaps, wrecks, and a bit, maybe drunk, we might be drunk, yeah. Hey, hey, here we are folks, we're on the Patreon, you're on the Patreon, welcome, you know what it is, you know where it is, good to have you back.

Good to be back. I'm eating a pretzel again. Yeah, well, we've had a couple of cocktails, so you're seeing the real sausages made. Whatever that means. Good to be here, man. Should we do some questions? Let's do some questions. The people want to know. They're writing in. What do you got?

Dominic Adamson, favorite Marlon Brando performance besides The Godfather. Godfather ain't my favorite Brando performance. I'm going on the waterfront all day, baby. I love Streetcar, but on the waterfront is as good as it gets, baby. That's a hot movie. He's a sexy man. He's a bad boy. Yep. Yep. Isn't he like a biker guy in that? Well, it's like a gang. Yeah. I mean, he's like a...

Longshoreman type guy. Oh, right. He's a dock worker. Yeah. But I think... What's the one where he's a biker guy with the leather cap? Which is...

Which one is that? I don't know. I like, I'm going Louisiana Pride. I like Stella. Streetcar? Streetcar. Stella! Yeah. Yeah, he was a real loose cannon, that ripped, hot. So animalistic, primal, sweaty, always wet. He had like a tiny white t-shirt. Come on. Yeah, he was hot. Now, I'm going on the waterfront for me, but I just think it's like a perfect movie, but either way, it's Elia Kazan, who named names. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

Stunkin' Superman. He was weird as Jor-El. He would just not, it was like you saw in that documentary, when he got a role he didn't like, he was like, go fuck yourself. I know. If you didn't like the director, he was like, you don't get this. Yeah. It's like a fucking hot chick. Like, oh, you think you earned this? Right, right. He knew who he was. He knew he was a fucking, like a titan of the Hollywood industry. He was. Mm-hmm.

Scott Miller, Roadrunner, the Anthony Bourdain doc is my rec. Interviewees are mostly his crew from Parts Unknown. Really fucking good. I actually heard this was great and I can't wait to watch it. I can't do it. Come on. I'm just... I haven't fully accepted it. It's tough. Like a lot of people I really... who I felt connected to have died over the years in their work, I mean. Like Kobe dying fucking hit me like a ton of bricks. And then Bourdain, same shit. I mean...

I still watch the show. I watch the show, too. It's tough to be like, oh, this is the final thing. I don't know. I'll probably watch it at some point. I'm so impressed with the guy because as a comic who always thinks he has to be on and funny and writing and working, he was so natural on the show. He's not really...

you know this regis philbin hey guy how we doing you know he just he was just mellow and cool and that's what i loved about it that was so rare for tv yeah just to be that authentic and normal and like not trying he had a a subtle coolness about him so and what do you mean that subtle he was just cool right i mean he was just a cool guy who did jujitsu and drank and yes food was a former addict and yeah poor game fucking rocked change the game uh

With the kitchen confidential. Yeah, and, you know, the show blew up on the Travel Channel, which says so much about how good it was. Good point. It's like standing out on CISO. You know, it's not exactly like a hot place to, you know, crush it. So, yeah, Bourdain rule. Yeah, he might have put travel on the map, much like Hitler with History Channel. Weird reference, but... Hitler put travel on the map, too. It was just invasion. Poland.

Benjamin Boyer saw Pig because you guys loved it on the top of Nick Cage doing Shit or Gold. Have you seen Mandy? Thoughts? I loved it. I have not seen Mandy. I saw it. I didn't love it. What is Mandy? It's a revenge movie. It's a guy who, Nick Cage, it's interesting and it's well shot and it's Cage being loony. It's not bad.

I like Pig way better. Really? Have you watched Pig yet? I loved it. Yeah, it's great, right? I loved it. I thought it was shot well. I thought it was just a great thriller. Really pretty looking, interesting, completely original. I like that he...

kind of broken, but he doesn't get angry. Like, it's really just about psychological... Like, he takes people down with his mind rather than just, like, murdering everyone. Yes, yes, exactly. Like, that scene where he got beat up, he just took it. Yeah. You came and you saw and you broke it. Oh, something. People love it. I didn't love it. It just felt like a little... It felt like an indie...

It felt like they were indie, but then also kind of... It was still kind of like formula revenge flick. It wasn't bad. It just wasn't like... Yeah. It wasn't bad. It's another kind of Pacific Northwest type movie. Interesting. It's kind of the anti-pig, though. Oh, anti-pig. Somebody doesn't like cops? Keith Zients. That's got to be German. What are the guy's death row meals? Ooh!

See, this is a tough question. I'm bad at these because they put you on the spot. It's do or die. What are you going to have? It's hard not to go like steak,

Nah. That's too hacky, you think? I don't like steak that much. I like steak, but I don't put it up there with the- A great cut? Nah, it's all the one thing. The first bite tastes like the last bite. To me, there's nothing. It's just, I can do one bite of steak or five bites. What's the difference? Steak is hacky, but it's hacky for a reason. I'm not saying it's hacky. I just don't like it that much. I'll throw some weird ones at you. Please. I mean, I love a grilled fish taco. Ooh.

I'm with you on that. Also, if I'm going down, I want to shit myself something fierce for the cleanup crew. Yes. Because you're murdering me. So take that. Good point. Then on top of that, I'll also go a bagel, toasted everything bagel, cream cheese, smoked salmon, capers, onions, a little tomato action going on there too. Yeah.

Well, I'm going with the longest meal. So I'm going, give me a crock pot with a brisket in it. I'm talking cream of mushroom soup because that takes a good nine hours. I don't think the preparation is part of it. I think they just bring it to you. Good point. All right, forget it. You could use that crock pot and maybe explode your way out of there, though. Ah, like the Boston bombing. Good point.

Yeah, I don't know. I might go just throw back crawfish boil. Wow. You know, you got the paper out. It takes forever to do, so you buy a couple more hours, get a beer. You're slurping out of those little fucking... I'm sucking the heads. I'm eating the tails. Oh, take me a while to peel, boss. You know, like, better wait a minute. That's not bad. Yeah, that's good. I do love a crawfish boil, or I'd probably go gumbo or something like that. You know, something...

Man, we really went with our roots, I guess. I guess maybe you want to be in your comfort place when you're dying. And I think with the death row, there's no... Is it calorie? What are we talking here? Too much sugar? Too much sodium? You just go all in. Do we get a dessert there, too? Yeah, you got it. What dessert are you doing? I'm going milkshake and a waffle and...

Maybe a cheesecake slice. I was going to say Oreo cheesecake and some ice cream. And maybe a scotch to go down with that ice cream. Yeah, dude. That sounds pretty good. We're running up a tab for this fucking. Hell yeah. Yeah. It must happen. It's weird because that's kind of like their rider. Their rider, yeah. You know? My rider's boring.

Mine too. What's your rider? It's like fucking unsalted nuts, unsweetened iced coffee, and a fruit plate. Ah, that's pretty healthy. Well, yeah, I mean, the food at the club is horrible, and of course I'm going to eat it at some point, so I figure I may as well just have the stuff that's brought to me be like, all right, I'll fill up on nuts. That's a great idea. I'm going to do that. Yeah. Because the food is like burgers and fries and pizza and chicken wings, so...

Great call. Yeah. On the hill, I go tequila, granola bars, banana. Yeah. Why do you get tequila if you're at a club? I don't know. That's a great point. Forget the tequila. That's out. Granola bar, banana, and I'm going fruit plate. Granola bar? What kind of granola? I get granola bars because they usually give me the box and I throw it in my suitcase. So now every time I'm at the airport, I got a granola bar. That's something. Yeah, so I got it to go. That's why I do the nuts. I have the nuts at the airport. There you go.

I'm learning. Why am I getting tequila? That's fucking stupid. Straight Ray dessert or Five Blade from Jeremiah. I mean... Five Blade? I do both, honestly. Hmm.

I mean, the one blade scares me because I feel like you got one shot. Yep, yep. I think of like Eastern Promises when you sit down and just split your fucking throat. You got that big Adam's apple too. Oh, yeah. This is an obstacle course trying to shave around that thing. But I took your advice back in 88. You told me get the Norelco. I never looked back. But is it dangerous around this one? Oh, yeah. It's crazy. It's like...

cutting a diamond. You gotta be careful. You got a real Adam's apple. It's no joke. It's like the only masculine thing about me is this Adam's apple. I got no pubic hair, no chest hair.
