Tickets are available now at HardRockHotelAtlanticCity.com or you can go to the link in our bio on our at pod important Instagram page. Get your freaking tickets now because you know they're going to
Sell out. Come and rage with us in Atlantic City, baby. Welcome to This Is Important, a production of iHeartRadio, the show where we only talk about what is most obviously very crucially important. Today on This Is Important... If you are a film critic, you absolutely don't want to see my taint.
They tell me they're installing kitty litter in the kids' bathrooms. This is a huge fungus that you just aren't taking care of? Let's go! Oh my god! Oh my god!
Oh my God. Hit the board. Hit the board. Let it rip. Let it rip. I think this podcast is going to come out in the week or the week before we're in Atlantic City. Here we come. Oh man, what a blast that was. Oh yeah. No, I don't think we're there yet. I think we're almost there. We're like kissing it? Yeah, I was joking. That was a joke. I'm big into time comedy now. Yeah.
- Oh baby. - Yeah, yeah. - Yeah, you're already starting off hot. Yeah, this one comes out April 9th. - Oh, 10 days. - Oh my God. - 10 days to go. - Wow. - 10 more days. - Get your tickets now if they're not already sold out. - Have you guys spent time in New Jersey? - Yeah, I performed in Atlantic City before. - Oops, winning. - And I think I shot a commercial in there or something.
And then also... And our producers are saying Newark. Yeah, we went to Newark. We had a good time. That's just right over the... I mean, deep Jersey. No, remember, they don't say Newark. They say Nork.
It's Nork. Yeah, but was that guy that we were talking to, did he have Down syndrome? I don't know. He said Nork. That's all I know. Yeah, because he definitely said Nork a lot, and I don't know if that's how... Adam, I don't know what to tell you, but that was in our dressing room. You were looking in the mirror. You are so dumb. You had a few, and you were talking to yourself. Nork.
Nork. Nork. But deep Jersey, you've been to Atlantic City already, Adam. Yeah, I've been to Atlantic City a couple times, I think. I feel like people don't really rep it. I feel like they kind of are like Atlantic City kind of.
Well, I think it's a little... It could be parts or a little run down, but they got some nice stuff, I think. I think they do. I'm sure it's come around. I mean, you know, that gay dude was right. It's the circle of life. That is true. Elton John said that. And that is a rap lyric I'm quoting. Of himself. Don't come after me. Sorry, of a wizard. A wizard. The portal opened. Lamal Spellswell said that. I'm sure it was shady and now it's nice.
Atlantic City kind of has like a Reno vibe or what? Because there's kind of like, are they similar? Have you guys been to Reno before? Never been to Reno. No, I've never been to Reno. Oh, Reno's fucking cool, dude. Rural.
I think I would go to Reno. Let's book a casino gig in Reno. That sounds kind of fun. Great. Reno, Las Vegas. Reno, Reno, Las Vegas. Famous workaholics. And I guess the premise of that joke is that we thought that's what the song was.
How did we walk that one? Dude, I love our show. It was so much fun to just be so dumb on television. It was the best. It was the best. And people thought that we were like super different. And then they hear our podcast and they're like, you are so dumb. Talk about boners more somehow. Yeah. Somehow they're dumber. They're dumber. They're dumber. How did they write this show? Did you hear the one where Blake wants a reader? You want somebody to read aloud?
Is it read out loud or read aloud? You shouldn't be allowed to read. I think it's either. Either work can be both. I'm sure either work allowed and out loud mean the same thing. Yeah. Yeah. So. So last week we were saying, which guy, if you were to have, if you were to be a.
so famous that you have people, you have guys doing things. Like how Kanye had a chair guy come in, scout a bunch of chairs. You said that you wanted, I want to dive in a little deeper, a reader. All right, this is worth revisiting. Leave them wanting less. A reader. Yes, someone to read aloud.
He's allowed to read. Oh, okay. We misunderstood. Well, I mean, I feel like we're seconds away from AI being able, like you just choosing, you want it to sound, yeah, you want it to sound like Morgan Freeman and Morgan Freeman could just read everything to you. Through the powers of AI. Is that who you would want? Oh, this is a great segue, Adam. Who would you want to be your reader? Right.
I was going to say Becca, but nobody else would get that joke. It's pretty funny. She's not even here. She left. Let's see. Who would be my reader? Like Macho Man. I think that would be kind of cool. He's like, yeah. Once upon a time. The three little pigs. Yeah. That's yeah. Okay. So you want to read her because you've actually told me early on when I just had my son, you were like,
Hey, when you start to pick books to read, pick short books. Oh, yeah. Don't pick a long book. Yeah. Yeah. No long books. And then you went in a little bit on Dr. Seuss. You're like, Dr. Seuss's books. A little too long. They're a little long. Yeah. A little long in the tooth. Yeah. Like, oh, the places you'll go. Not for me. So this is why you want to read. Yeah. To read to my child that night. For a second, I was like, oh, Blake can't read.
Like he has a hard time. He's busy catching up on Idol. Yeah. Yeah. Downstairs watching Idol. Here's a book. I'm talking about someone to read to my children in place of me. So I can keep watching basketball instead of tucking them in. Yeah, that makes sense. So the nighttime, we're just now getting into like a real nighttime ritual because when they're true newborns, they're just kind of asleep all the time. Right now. Yeah. Hmm.
Hollywood. What's a Hollywood ritual? A baby? A ritual? Yeah, Newichek kind of gave me his whole ritual that he does. Maybe a little run of show? Yeah.
Okay. The whole nighttime routine, right? So I don't. So now we're like. Now it's a routine. We're walking it back. Nice pivot. Okay. So now we're like, you know, doing the bathing, doing the bottle and then the nighttime, you know, turning the lights off, getting a little sound machine going, you know.
Tucking them in. Yeah, you got the sound machine? Oh, yeah. We got a little sound machine. What do you guys go with? Babbling brook, white noise. What are we talking? We're a white noise family. Yeah. There's white noise. Our entire upstairs, every room has a white noise machine. That's what teachers called you in high school behind your back. You got white noise? I got white noise for third period. Here we go. Yes, boys! Dude, that is such a good nickname for...
Durs like going to like a predominantly black high school and he's just the one white kid in a class. Fucking white noise. White noise. Yeah. White noise is yeah. Whenever the like the babbling brook or like the like raindrops
I don't fuck with that. Because if we ever have on like a vacation, sleep with him in the same room and that's going on, I'm not sleeping. Dude, Adam, that reminds me. The one time we went to Catalina and we were like sleeping on the boat. You played fucking...
the loudest water noises. So it sounded like the boat was taking on water. I was having a panic attack while you were sleeping. You thought you were submerging? Oh, I thought we all enjoyed that. You easily could have told me to... Oh my god! It was so loud. It sounded like the boat was taking on water. I thought we were dying. Blake slept with his life jacket on? Hey, Blake, I think you need to stand up for yourself a little more because that's an easy pivot, buddy.
I'm your buddy. You could have easily gone, hey, none of this noise or a different noise. I'm not going to interrupt whatever you and Chloe are doing. I think we know a guy Blake needs to hire. Who's that? The guy who goes and stands up. Like a backbone guy? Yeah, backbone man. Oh, yeah.
My bully? Just a bully for me? You need to hire your asshole. You're too much of a bitch. You need an asshole in your life. You need to hire an asshole who just goes, yo, Adam, turn off the fucking rain, the jungle noises that you have going on. That person didn't give me the correct change.
Can you tell? Rainforest Cafe. That waitress at Rainforest Cafe didn't give me the correct change. Well, I'm sorry I did that to you. I do turn on like a white noise.
Or some kind of noise. I don't know what I did that night, but usually it's a white noise on the boat specifically because you end up early in the morning. You start to hear other boats and people on the shore and you just it's it's very loud. You hear whales and shit just fucking. Yeah, you just hear seals trying to fucking attack. You left you left a bag of chips out on the deck and the seals are just going. Yeah.
Are there many seal attacks that attack humans? No, I know a guy that was attacked. Oh, shit. I'm living in a nightmare. The floor is yours. He was surfing, but the seal was kind of like
telling him to step off. I think his seal had his sealed kids with him. Pups. They're called pups. And so he just wasn't because it was in the surf spot that was breaking. And I it's not my story to tell. I kind of forget exactly. It's like a friend of a friend. I'll give you a little background noise. Adam's like, surf water pup.
But anyways, he was fucking bit by this seal. Go ahead. Paint the picture. There was a dude surfing when the seal bit on his heel. I almost got attacked by a seal. This is a seal attack right now. I almost got attacked by Blake's seal attack. You ready for a seal attack, brother?
I jumped. I was in Laguna Beach and I jumped off a rock and landed on what I thought was another rock. Exactly. And I slipped and turns out it was a fucking seal who was
So mad at me. Oh, yeah. SEALs are ornery. Yeah. Undeniably mad at me. You want to hear an angry SEAL? They could be pretty vicious. I don't know if SEAL has any angry thoughts. You know, I was listening to a bunch of Sade the other day. As one does. And it kind of blew me away that SEAL and Sade never did a collab-o. Did they?
Has Sade ever collabed with anybody? Has she ever done a duet? That's a good little question right there. I feel like she kind of keeps in her own lane. I don't know. I will say, let's name three Sade songs because I don't know if I could. Sweetest Taboo. Play me a little Sade, Blake, because I don't know if I know. Yeah, why don't we play... You want to hear a little Sweetest Taboo? What is the most famous song? I mean...
Sweetest Taboo is famous, but no, the most famous is... Let me skip up. Okay. Such a vibe, bro. And then Seal comes in and goes... If I tell you...
Loving me. Dude, she's fire. Okay, the fact that Ders was listening to this the other day. God, you're so cool, dude. You have to tap in. I've never once tapped in. Really? I think you would enjoy it. I think it's undeniable. Oh, it's the best. I wouldn't even know how to tap in. If it isn't Beastie Boys Radio or Blink-182 Radio or Rage Against the Machine Radio, I don't even know how to listen to other music.
The most famous song she has is Smooth Operator, probably. Oh, so that one is a... Yeah, that's a... I mean... Yeah. I'll play the first... From Indecent Proposal, This Is No Ordinary Love. It sounds like... We gotta fast forward. We gotta fast forward a lot. We gotta fast forward a lot. I wanna take in another girl.
She's so sexy. I mean, I don't know this song, but I do want to have a slow, slow pump sesh. Okay. That's what I call having sex. Oh, I thought you were saying you want to work out to that. That would be dope. No, no, no, no. I thought it was J-O. No, no, no. Having sex. Yeah. So is who we are. We all thought it was something else. It's been a while. Pump fest. It's been a while. It could be a couple of things. It's been a while. It's not really a fest these days. You.
You call it a fest, huh? Okay. Or a ritual. A mating ritual. A slow pump fest. Yeah, I think shotty would work. But shotty and seal? Guys, hello. Do you like money? No.
Yeah, I'll take that. Oh, she Anna's saying Sade. And by the way, Sadie, how it's how it's spelled. Is that how it's spelled? Because it looks like Sade or Sadie. Yeah. Some people say Sade, but I believe it's Sade. Sade. She has a hard Sade. I like that she's doing her own thing with this name. And it's just saying, like, it's going to be sexy the way I say it. Where is she from? It would be the most popular name in the world.
Is it? In Brazil. Somewhere. S-A-D-E? I don't remember. She's Nigerian British. It's like when I go to Minnesota. It's not a big deal. Okay, so maybe in Nigeria, Sade is just like fucking Jeff or something. Yeah. Emily. Yeah, Emily. Wait, you named her a dude? Yeah. My name is like Jeff where I am from. Where I'm from, unfortunately, my name is Jeff. By the way...
This is my hug. Enjoy your pump ritual. So Sade's collaborated with Jay-Z on the song Moon and the Sky for her ultimate collection set. Yeah, but that doesn't... I don't know. Sure. I'm not interested in that as much as I would love to see like Seal. We're talking a duet. He seems like the male Sade. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Like them together.
Yeah, and come on. Is his real name Seal? There's no doubt. Okay. His parents named him Seal. The parents saw him, and they're like, that's a seal. That's a seal. His name might be something wildly complicated for Western audiences. And when he came in, they were like, you look like a big fucking seal is what you look like. Yeah. I would rather not use that name at all. I hate it.
Do you want money or not? His name is Seal Henry. Henri. Alusa Gunn. Aluma D. Adola Samuel. This is why I want someone that reads aloud for me. Yeah. He looks. Holy shit. Is that Nigerian? Is that what's happening? It's definitely something. He's Canadian. It's definitely something. Everyone's something. Just for the record. Everyone's something. Not everybody, man. I'm a nobody. I'm nothing.
I don't relate. Yeah, there's nothing here. See old Henry. Some of these kids are goddamn cats these days. They're shitting in cat boxes in the bathrooms. Oh, no. They tell me they're installing kitty litter in the kids' bathrooms. So he was born in Paddington, London, England. Sure. Okay. So, yeah.
Yeah, so his parents just truly just named him Seal. That is wild. Yeah, that's pretty tough. Very shagadelic. Why not Walrus? That's a cooler name. And what's cool is, like, I wonder if he kind of looked like a baby seal when he was born. A pup. Yeah, he looks like a little pup. And they're like, all right. Yeah, I almost named Bo Piglet.
Sure. I almost named it. Looked like a little piggy. Little piglet. I was so close. I was so close to naming him piglet. We know how you work. Yeah. As a white person looking down at my feet and sometimes thinking they look like little pink pig hoofs, it's one of my least favorite things about being white is that my feet look like the feet of a pig. Hot, hot, hot, hot. Are we recording yet? Are we on? Do we start? Let's go.
Right.

Listen to the Amber and Lacey, Lacey and Amber show on Will Ferrell's Big Money Players Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I have a horrific toe fungus. It's gotten on all my toes now. Really? And I have nine. I have like nine and a half toes. And
And they're all bent and crooked because they've all been broken. Right. They're horrific looking. I look down and I'm like, I look like this. You can't put on some fucking arm. Yeah. What's going on there? No, they say it's so bad. I would I would need it would it would be like a whole thing. I went to a podiatrist when I when I took the when remember when I found that random stash.
stitch in my foot from 30 years ago yeah that was the wild podcast hi yeah I was at the podiatrist I'm like what's good with this and he's just like it's fine it like doesn't hurt anything
What's good with this? Nothing. Nothing's good with this. It was Dr. Brozark. So I got to speak to him. It's all G, bro. It's all G, son. I mean, there's no way this is a stitch from 20 years ago. Wait, that's what it is? Oh, shit. So he essentially was like, if it bothers you, we can do something about it.
If it's like a big deal, but it doesn't matter at all. And you're, and basically your feet are so fucked up looking anyways. Like it's not going to be, it's not going to hurt my health. You're a fucking disaster, my guy. They're just horrific looking. Just let me know when Chloe starts hiding mail that comes from you. What do you mean? Uh, what's this from a lawyer? It's nothing. It's nothing. Just take care of your goddamn feet. Oh, because she's going to divorce me? Is that the joke? Yeah.
I mean, that one, that one hurt. I'm just saying if you have a fungal foot, it's the first time Adam's been hurt on pod. I'm just wondering about the pump fast. That one actually hurt brother. Wow. Wow. Uh,
I've actually never thought of that before. That could happen. Fuck. There's a huge, huge pile of mail in her office. I'm pissed now. That one hurts. She does have that huge pile. Wait a second. What is that? I guess I'm just wondering, this is a huge fungus that you just aren't taking care of? Yeah. No, the doctor said fuck it, bro. That's correct. That's correct.
The doctor said it doesn't matter. He's like, it won't hurt your health. It's a cosmetic thing. It's totally fine. It doesn't matter. It's like it's a cosmetic thing. And I'm like, well, my feet are already disgusting. So fuck them. Okay. So fuck them. But that being said, when I look down at them, I look like if my feet were just poking out of a children's bed.
Yeah. That's the scariest thing. Like, I kind of feel like when I have, when, like, my son is a little older and he's having little sleepovers with his friends, I might just dangle my feet under a bed. Wait, but is it fungal? It's toe fungus, dude. They're like yellow. Wait, wait. All I'm saying is that, like, when I'm as a swimmer, like, sometimes you get athlete's foot because everyone's on their deck barefoot and, like, there's fungus that's there. So if you're just, I don't know.
I don't know. Fungus spreads. Yeah, that shit might start going up your shins and then it's at your knees. It's not. I've had them for years. The fungus. Look at my toes. Next time we're all barefoot together. Hey, when we were on the... I'm not taking my shoes off around you no more, dude. I don't want that shit. It's not going to hop onto you. It's not hopping onto you. It's not hopping onto you.
I don't know. How often are tippy toes rubbing for real? Not often. I don't, I can't remember the last time. And they've, and they haven't, you know, I've been in the same bed for, for going on nine years and, and her toes chef's kiss. They're great. They're great toes. You know,
My toes? Like, so many thumbs down. Garbage Man's Kiss. Cross the board. If My Toes were a movie, it would have the worst Rotten Tomatoes score. It would literally be rotten. Like, worse than Game Over, man. That's pretty funny. Worse than...
worse than any movie I've been in. Dude, Game Over Man's Rotten Tomatoes score is so low. There are movies that are terrible that I have been going on and checking the Rotten Tomatoes and they're better than ours. It's like, what the fuck? What is it? Well, I think once, because if you're a film critic. Camp Nowhere got a higher score than us? What the fuck? Well, it's a pretty fun movie. It is a great movie. But if you are a film critic, you absolutely don't want to see My Taint.
I think second thing, and then you also maybe don't want to see a man get his face sliced off in a meat slicer. That part rocks. I mean, that part does rock, but we're not film critics because we're not fucking dorks. You know what I mean? Film critics are such dorks, dude. Yeah, that is true. I mean, I will say the audience scores way higher at 47%. Yeah.
That's good. That's good on Rotten Tomato. I wish that I agreed with almost any of Rotten Tomato's. Yeah. Well, it's a they've been exposed. It's like kind of a shitty thing. They've been exposed because essentially they a critic will write a negative review and then they're syndicated in papers across the country. And then they're those negative reviews.
is counted like 15 times or however many papers he's syndicated in. So it's a fucked up way to do it. And so you're, if you get a negative, if you know, you get a few negative reviews, it's like you got 40 negative reviews. Okay. If there's, if they're syndicated and a lot of times these guys are. Yeah. Yeah.
I mean, but also like some of these movies where they get like a 99%, you're like, oh, so like what did like Goodfellas get? A 97? And you have a... It's just, you're like, what the fuck are we... I don't know. It's just crazy to me. Oh, yeah. I know. And I think I'm okay with knowing that I'm just never going to get...
If it's a movie that I'm the lead of, these critics, they're not for it. And that's fine. That's fine. I'm okay with it. I'm looking at the worst ranked blockbusters of all time. Can you guess what leads the list? And that's a list they've made? Yes. These are the lowest tomato score. Can you guess what it is? And this is on RottenTomatoes.com? Yes. Lowest blockbuster score. Is it Wild Wild West?
I bet wikiwawa is on there, dude. It's not. Because I remember that was a fun one for critics to just shit on
on real bad destroy it's not at it's an adam sandler movie i'll give you that clue oh yeah oh it's the one with him as a woman right no jack and jill that was a jack and jill is that was that's a banger that's my dad or whatever that's my boy by the way wild wild west is number 16 on the list okay that's up there 16 so really good pull i like where my head's okay
Was it That's My Boy? It's not That's My Boy. Who was in that? Okay. And that's Sandberg. And by the way, I like all of Sandberg's movies. Even the ones...
I was just going to say, we can't keep naming movies that we think are the worst. Well, I'm thinking what critics would think. No, critically. Critically. Yeah. They don't get it. Oh, Zohan. It's not Zohan. No, it's not Zohan. Zohan. Dude, Zohan's a banger. Zohan's a banger. Yeah, that's a brilliant... It's a brilliant film. Yeah, you got to rewatch Zohan. I'm not saying... We aren't saying this. I know. I know. We're just saying. I know. I know. I think...
I think even the critics could appreciate. And by the way, I mean, appreciate them. Mr. Deeds. No, no, no. Mr. Deeds. No. That's a great one. I know. I'm just. It has to. I honestly don't know any other movie. Sandy Wexler. No. It's actually kind of. I'm kind of pissed about this, but I've never seen this movie. All right. Well, just tell us. I don't want to shit on everybody. It's Grown Ups 2.
Grownups 2. Okay. Okay. I did not see Grownups 2. Grownups 2. Older now. Followed by Little Fockers. Oh, Little Fockers. Did I see that? And then this is where they lose. Sounds good. They lose. All credibility. Every fucking credibility flies out the window when. I knew he was looking for the word. Every credibility. Every credibility. For.
Floats out the window. You know how you lose. You have one credibility and then there's another credibility. Yeah. All these credibilities have gone away. They're telling me that Crocodile Dundee 2 is 9%. Are you fucking crazy? Okay. All right. And we walk away. This is insane. Pieces of shit. Are you fucking crazy? Hey, fuck you. Rotten tomatoes. And stupid rotten bitches. You piece of shit.
Fuck you, Rotten Tomatoes. Are you fucking crazy? Kiss my dick. I'll give a shout out. Please kiss my dick. I think it was... I know it was a McBride show. I can't remember if it was Vice Principals or if it was the baseball one. Eastbound and down. But they used the score from Crocodile Dundee 2.
that I was obsessed with for a very long time and I wanted somebody to like sample it on like a hip hop song never happened I'm sitting there watching Eastbound and Down and I just hear it fucking kick on and I was like no fucking way they just used that Crocodile Dundee 2 is a super impactful movie for me like that movie I thought he died the end isn't
The switcheroo. Anybody at TII Nation, if you haven't seen the film, you gotta see it. And then go to Rotten Tomato and boost the fucking score. I like it better than one. Oh, way better. I mean, Rotten Tomatoes, I mean, they've lost all, every credibility. Oh, this, they're out the window. The credibility, they're out the window. Crocodile Dundee 2. That is a fucking banger. When he's got the like,
Is that the one where he's got the rope and he's calling the bats? Yes. Well, no. That sucks. Go down the top ten list. I bet there's going to be some bangers here. Well, the next one was Dr. Seuss, the cat in the hat. Dr. Seuss is the cat in the hat. Okay, that's Mike Myers. Yes, which...
Hey, it's
It's not a bad idea. I'm sure it's out there. It's not a bad idea. It's not. Hey, keep going. We got 40 more minutes. Okay. Then we got Couples Retreat. Yeah. Starring Vince Vaughn and Jason Bateman. Well, okay. That wasn't a great movie. I saw it.
I didn't love that movie, but also considered one of the worst movies. This is insane. That movie was during an era where I think the batting average for comedies was pretty sky high. It felt like you could go to see a comedy almost every weekend and be like, I think that was the funniest movie of the year. And then you'd see another one in two weeks and you'd be like, well, fuck, that was hilarious.
And I think it was in that era. What era? What era are you talking about exactly? Cause I, the 2000s. Yeah, this is 2009. That's a little late. That's a little late to,
2000 late yeah this was probably the end of the whole era but i mean like when it was like killed it killed the era that's why they're so mad when it was like old school into anchorman into early judd apatow movies into what all those other like yeah seth's movies like shit was people were coming on fire they were coming on fire they were credentials were out the window and come was on fire baby yeah yeah you're you're not wrong you're not wrong the hangover movies were blossoming
or sprouting. Yeah. Like dodgeball was like, like if dodgeball came out now, it'd be everyone's favorite movie. Then it was just like, kind of like second tier. Yeah. Wedding crashers wedding. I mean, dude, it was people were, as Blake says, fire coming on fire. No, dude, if dodgeball came out now,
It would get a 1% on Rotten Tomatoes, and it would be critically panned. And also, people would be afraid to like it because it wouldn't be cool to like a dodgeball movie. But back then, you just watched it.
You just watched it. Yeah. People were like critics. Like people weren't critics back then. I think the gen pop would love it right now. I don't know. I don't. People like to people like to dunk on shit more than they like to uplift stuff nowadays. That's true. Are you blaming Michael Jordan for that? I'm I am. I'm chocolate. Chocolate Thunder. I would like to. I would like to blame Vince Carter for that. Yeah. Vincent Carter. LeBron James. By the way, Anthony Edwards dunk the other night. Oh,
Oh my God. Anthony Edwards. Oh, I thought you said Anthony Anderson and I was like, damn. Okay. Yeah, dude. You're like a celeb. He dropped the weight and now we can dunk, dude. Yeah. It was a really cool episode of blackish. You got to see it, dude. He freaking smash. Is it more of a mixed dish? Uh, I think that shows off the air, but yeah. Uh,
Okay. Well, look who shows up again coming in at number seven, Grown Ups 1, unfortunately. They really hated these Grown Ups movies. Yeah, I know. I kind of thought they were... I mean, I don't know if I... Truly, I don't know if I saw the Grown Ups movies. And this is Sandler. It's...
Sam, Kevin, Chris Rock and Kevin James. Right. Yeah. Yeah. They got to be sort of funny. Oh, for sure. Sandler movies are. I mean, there is at least a billion jokes in it. I mean, the guys are joke joke machines. Yeah. So it cannot be the worst movie ever. Yeah. And then number eight and nine is Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed.
What is freed? Yeah, I think they made like three of them. Was she finally like got out of the basement? Like this is weird. What the hell is 58? Freed. She's like finally escaped. What the hell? From Durza's basement of terror. Yeah.
Yeah, we got a... Maybe that works. Dude, people were legit mad. I posted the photo saying that it was you of like that... What was he? German? Norwegian? It's this. Yeah. Norwegian serial killer. And the guy like tortured... I don't think it was Norwegian. Austrian? Austrian? Yeah. That's way scarier. We just don't do that. Yeah, that's way scarier. Yeah, that's way scarier. Burn churches. And Durst looks exactly like him. And people are like, how dare you post this photo of this guy? And I'm like, I'm saying my friend...
I'm making fun of my friend. Adam's on a roll. I post shit, dude. I don't think twice. Also, you were like, that's not him. That's Ders. I'm like, that is Ders. That's not the guy, pal. That's not the guy. That's my friend Ders. He's 18 doors. 18 doors, that guy. Okay. All right. So we didn't see those movies. I bet they're not great. Yeah.
Yeah. I guess Dakota Johnson's kind of on a roll of movies that are critically panned because I think the Matt Web came out and people fucking hated it. Yeah, they were bummed on that one. But I think she was also bummed on it. But then her PR train was like... I mean, I worked with her. She's pretty funny. And I like how she just doesn't let people fuck with her. I don't know what this movie is. She reminds me of like an...
Like if Bobby Altoff, that podcaster, was an actress. Was a real person. Yeah. Okay. Fuck it! I get the similar vibes from them. Just like, I'm cool over it. Yeah. No, it's less that and more like... I think when people bait her, she's just like...
I'm not doing it. And they go, you're not going to? She's like, no. She's not playing the game. But yet she is. Not playing along. Like, she's the one who made Ellen. Like, she's the one who goes on talk shows.
What'd she make Ellen do? Because when she's not playing the game, like if you're doing a bit or whatever, it can seem like it's going over her head to someone who's like in comedy. But she's, and that she's like, oh, I'm just kind of like ditzy. But she's not. She's just doesn't think you're funny. You know what I'm saying? And so like Ellen was trying to like fucking do jokes and she was like, huh? And then she was like,
oh you don't get it and she's like I get it I just you're being mean to me no I think her thing I've watched I actually saw this randomly I know what you're talking about she said it was like she invited Ellen to like her birthday party you don't get it and then she was like I wasn't invited she's like you were and you didn't come yeah she wasn't playing the game you were invited and you did not come what is this episode of Ellen I gotta see this yeah and she's like aha and Ellen's trying to like get past it she's like
why why didn't you come well you had something better to do and you're like good bit that's a good bit and it was like mad awkward which made for great television so yeah and then who was the other one there was another was it Fallon or was it uh Kimmel yeah but I'm not shitting on Dakota Johnson I'm like I also no one no one uh likes my movies either so no no this is just the 50 shades and and
Would you like to know the number 10 spot? Our final... Oh, there's only 10? No, let's stop at 9. Good call. And that's our top 9. What would it be? There's no way. That video game one?
Where everything was like a video game? Oh, yeah. With the dude from Game of Thrones? Maybe. I think that was a Sandler movie, too, with the Pac-Man and shit. Yeah. Pixels. Is it that? No, it's not that. Good guess, though. It is. I'll give you a hint. It's a CGI. There are CGI characters in the film.
This is the number 10 spot. CGI characters. Okay, give us one more clue. Because that's not CGI or animated. Is it animated or CGI?
And what is the difference? This can't be Roger Rabbit. No. It's not Roger Rabbit. It's CGI. CGI characters. Okay, give us one more. Yeah. This is fun for us and everyone listening. It's a property. It was a show when we were kids. It's a property. Yeah. What the fuck?
Fuck you, Blake. Inspector Gadget. Great guess, Ders. Wow, man. You guys are guessing really good guesses. Well, Ders is guessing. But Inspector Gadget, I rewatched it. The direction is bonkers. It's crazy. Like, whoever directed that knows how to make a movie. I just don't think they nailed what that was. Anyway. I would love to. Yeah, I need to watch that. The shots are crazy. I want to watch Mr. Magoo as well. I bet that's pretty fucking funny.
Yeah. Adam, you, any movies you want to see? What is this movie? Well, I am excited to go back and watch a lot of animated movies with Bo when he's old enough. Yeah. In like a year? Yeah. When do you start watching movies and shit? Three, dude, if you're a good parent. Immediately. Three? Immediately. Oh, man. I got to wait three years? Forget the white noise machine. Just play fucking movies. Well, he watches a lot of The Idol. Oh.
Right. The HBO show Idol, I believe. Yeah, he's a big fan of that one. And he also can't stop watching. He doesn't know why. I think we waited until three with our oldest, and now we have a two-year-old who we let watch some of what the movies are at the house. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.
Oh, that seems fair. What's number 10, Blazer? Give us one more hint. One more hint. So everyone at home is playing. If you're just screaming into your iPad right now. Yeah, you're like, God, these guys are fucking dumb as fuck. We know it's Harry and the Hendersons, dude. No, it can't be. That's a classic. Okay, here you go. It's the star of the movie is Jason Lee.
Jason. Oh, Alvin and the Chipmunks. Alvin and the Chipmunks. Chipwrecked. Chipwrecked. How could Chipwrecked? How? Fucking Rotten Tomatoes, you stupid fucking idiot. You fucking idiot. If you have a slogan for a sequel, Chipwrecked.
Yeah. That's great. It's already 15%. And remember their other movie, The Squeakquel? Yeah. That's the greatest title in a movie of all time. They're the best. You're already... The best. That gives you 35% out the gate. Right. You're just tacking percentages on beyond that. That's crazy. And what is the lowest percentage and what is Game Over Man? The lowest... What is the lowest...
I think Game Over Man was 18 or 13. I think we're 22 or something would be my guess. We're 18. 18? Pretty low. Oh, shit. I missed the lowest one. Number one. Number one. Was M. Night Shyamalan's The Last Airbender at 5%. What?
5%. See, but that's all the airbender people going on Rotten Tomatoes and going hard. Yeah, that's crazy. And being like, this sucks. And being mad about it. That's crazy. Because the audience score is 30%. And it's probably all the dog lovers going on and giving us shit. Yeah, man. Fuck, dude. Oh, I bet. I bet. Yeah. And that is Ders' fault.
I will say, yeah, that is 100%. I'm going to say this till the day I die. I wrote it. But when we watched the cut, I said I would take away that frame from the top.
where it explodes, I would cut away from that because you're seeing the dog in the thing and then it just explodes. And I was like, I would cut before that so you don't see the dog and then it explodes. And so you are saying it's our director, Kyle Neuchat's fault. You're putting it on Kyle. I'm saying I said that out loud and then he was like, what? He was licking his fingers eating a baby. What he said at the time were baby back ribs
Little did we know. Yeah, little did we know. They were the back of a baby's ribs. Little did we know. Oh my God. That was my suggestion. I'm so fucking hungry. I definitely wrote it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But that was your, you really fought hard for that bit. I remember early on, we were like, well,
we could not do the the dog killing and you were like the dog the dog is killed in this movie i know but i was like dude we can get like seven of these things and then you guys told me that they don't actually kill a bunch for the shot and then i was like well then maybe we don't need to do it yeah i came up with the best fix like 10 years later or however long it's been we should have just in the credits not to add the little dog walking around with the use of a skintendo suit
So it's still kind of like alive. Like dancing to a very expensive song. Yeah. And it's like, so, but the blood was, it truly exploded. Yeah. But it's still, everybody's like, oh yeah, the dog's still alive. Right. Or like pictures with the crew all holding it like a Farrelly brothers movie where they're like, the dog's getting laid. We all love the dog. Yeah. Yeah.
That actually would have loved to do that. Yeah, maybe. Next time. Next time, baby. Game over, boy. Fucking Rotten Tomato. Yeah, I would love to make that movie with you guys. Let's just do a true 90s wacky farce with each other. Okay. You know? Yeah, I'd love to do that with you guys. Let's find that money.
Right.

Guess what, Mango? What's that, Will? So iHeart is giving us a whole minute to promote our podcast, Part-Time Genius. I know. That's why I spent my whole week composing a haiku for the occasion. It's about my emotional journey in podcasting over the last seven years, and it's called Earthquake House.
Mango, I'm going to cut you off right there. Why don't we just tell people about our show instead? Yeah, that's a better idea. So every week on "Far Time Genius," we feed our curiosity by answering the world's most important questions. Things like, when did America start dialing 911? Is William Shatner's best acting work in Esperanto? Also, what happened to Esperanto? Plus, we cover questions like, how Chinese is your Chinese food? How do dollar stores stay in business? And of course,
Is there an Illuminati of cheese? There absolutely is. And we are risking our lives by talking about it.

I mean, dude, the Farrelly Brothers movies got wild. It was like the conjoined twin movie. I'm like, oh, yeah. Stuck on you? Yeah. I bet that has a low rotten. Dude, I love the Farrelly Brothers movies. I think they're so fucking great. Of course. Yeah, they're hilarious. Dude. I mean, he's made some of the, like the fact that he, Peter Farrelly, the fact that he did Green Book. Which one is Green Book?
Mahershala Ali. And then he made the greatest beer run ever and then went right into Ricky Stenicki. Wow. What a run. Hot, hot, hot, hot. And I haven't seen Ricky Stenicki yet, but I'm like... Ricky Stenicki, that script has been around for 20 years. Yeah, I remember back in the day it was going to be Jim Carrey. Jim Carrey, right? That's such a crazy story. I don't understand how...
Like, how good is a script that it sticks around for 20 years but doesn't get made? Yeah. Like, who's hanging on to the script? Someone made it their mission to get that made. Their life mission. Someone really wanted that movie to be made. Yeah. Why? Isn't that crazy? I don't know. It's Hollywood, dude. I don't know. I have not seen it yet. It's probably some dark secret. I'm sure it's pretty funny if it's a Peter Fairley movie. He does do a great job. Toasty!
Oh, here's the rap wrote a thing two weeks ago about Peter Fairley breaks down the 15-year journey to get Ricky's to Nicky made. Wow.
So was it in his hands the whole time then? So it was his movie. I guess so. I'm not... Okay, then that makes sense if it's in one guy's hands. Yeah, I guess he wrote it. The writer and director tells rap, yeah. Wow. Good for him then. It finally saw the light of day. So he's the reason that it gets made because Peter Farrelly has so much juice, baby. Yeah, passion project. And I love that he just goes from wacky comedy to...
Academy Award winning movie. The Green Book? Was that what it is? That won an Academy Award? I believe so. And then he goes and makes Ricky's... He bobs, he weaves. A lot of times when people win an Academy Award, they go on that train for a while. They're like, I'm a filmmaker. They become Adam McKay and they're like, I'm making... They get pretentious and they wear weird clothes. Say it!
Yeah. You wear weird clothes. They get eyewear. And no shots fired against Adam McKay because I'd love to be in one of his pretentious movies, but... Really? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Not for me. I think it'd be kind of tight.
it could be kind of tight no not anymore but uh he didn't do that which i think is cool who didn't do that peter fairly he just made the green the green book and then immediately was like and then i'm back on my fun comedy yeah he said that actually and i'm back
So tell us about Rikki Sonekki. Well, I'm back on my comedy shit, guys. I'm on that funny shit. I'm on that funny. Any takebacks, any apologies, any epic slams or giveaways? I would like to...
away a bunch of t-shirts at the Atlantic City gig. Okay. April 19th. It's coming up. I can't wait. I think we're almost sold out. Yeah. We have to be. We have to be at this point. I have not checked. Sorry. I didn't finish my sentence. I think we're sold out is a thing they want us to say. So we urge you guys to buy tickets. Get in there before it's too late, baby. Yeah. But no, I do think it's almost sold out. At
Atlantic City is about to be hot, hot, hot, hot, hot. Burn that fucking city down. But also respect the establishment. Also respect the establishment. Atlantic City. Hard rock. You know what? Hard rock.
Hard Rock, dude. That's cool. Dude, the Hard Rock Casino? That's sick. I bought a Hard Rock shirt in Seattle and it had a very strange fit to it so I didn't wear it. It was like super tight on my shoulders and then long as fuck. So Hard Rock, Atlantic City. Well, maybe that's just how bodies are like the kids that are buying Hard Rocks
T-shirts. Maybe they're just long and lean now. Okay. Yeah. You know, they don't they don't got that that wide swimmer back like you. Fair enough. That's true. Can you wear it to the live show, please? Yeah, maybe I'll take some scissors to it.
Well, without a doubt, we all have to get dope hard rock gear. We talked about spending $1,000 on a jacket. Was it $800? $1,000 on a leather. I said $500. I think we went up to $1,000. I think we did. Oh, no. That's what I said. We're getting matching Letterman jackets. You were like, we have to. Oh, no. No.
Yeah, you were on board before, Blake. I don't know why. Maybe you hadn't had a ZOA that day. I was drunk. We got to get matching. I'm drunk now. Hard rock Atlantic City Letterman jackets and wear them for the show. Why not? Yeah. Let's get sexy up there. I'm down. I'm down. I do want a good Atlantic City jacket.
dinner on Thursday night. Oh, let's do it. I'm still going to send it. And by dinner, you mean... Martini. Vodka. Yeah, we're going to drink our dinner that night. Let's be a lady. Tonight.
I can't wait. Yeah, maybe. I would love to take back the Rotten Tomatoes score for Crocodile Dundee 2. You are so wrong. Can you cue up the score for us to go out on? I mean, I know it builds very slowly, but if you started it now, it'd probably be pretty great. And you could run it for 45 seconds. I'll pay for it.
Good. That's very nice of you, Adam. Thank you. No, no, no. I don't remember the soundtrack. I'm excited to hear it for what feels like the first time.
Yeah, it's going to be a minute. I mean, dude, if anyone else knows how to end a podcast like we do, fucking step up to the streets on me. It doesn't seem like they have Crocodile Dundee 2. They do have Crocodile Dundee 1. The first one, then. We like both. It might work.
opening titles. So do you have any take-backs, any apologies, any epic slams there, Jersey? I don't think so. Epic slam? Blake, you're a bitch? I don't know. It just seems like... It's not that epic. Yeah, that wasn't that epic at all. It's just pretty normal. Sorry, classic slam. So this is the song that you're... No. Oh, here we go. Oh, you had to turn it off! What?
Wait, what? That's 15. Dude, it was just building. Just play it. That's 15, brother. I'm sorry. They'll pull it out later. Rules are rules, brother. I'm sorry. Anna, can we just have it play it? And if someone flags us on it, we just cut it later? Durr said he would pay for it. Let it play, dude. Okay, hold on. Wait. We can play it, and then we can cut it down in the edit.
Yeah, this is one. Two has stronger vibes.
I mean, it does, and it kind of gives like a sexy... It builds, dude. Oh, yeah. And the woman who was in that movie? Yeah, we can't give more than that. Goddamn. All right. I know I said white people like Crock-A-Doll. She does not. Okay, Crock-A-Doll. That's not nice. I mean, dude, coming off of that song, I guess this was another episode of... This is importance! See you in Atlantic City, TII Nation!
What's this one? I don't know. The Walkabout Bounce. Oh, my God. Yeah.
This is him walking around New York City? Yeah. Right? That's not nice. And then Reginald Bell Johnson says driver and has like the boomerang satellite on the limo? Yeah. Am I crazy? Rotten tomatoes. Bitch ass rotten tomatoes. Wait, but is that Reginald Bell Johnson? I do not know. And that was another episode of This is important. This is important.
