SPEAKER_01 8:35

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 8:35

So, uh, what did you think about this movie? That's literally all I can tell you.

SPEAKER_03 8:42

Okay. I think this movie is a m a little bit weird. No, I mean uh it's okay. I I I don't wanna say it's a uh bad one. I don't hate it. I mean i it's a low budget movie. You can't kinda tell because Oh yeah. Uh because the you notice that there's a lot of sped up scenes and uh stuff like that. But uh I can forgive that because it had a very limited budget, so and it's a very young Mel Gibson in this one.

SPEAKER_00 9:15

He's just a baby.

SPEAKER_03 9:16

Just a baby.

SPEAKER_00 9:17

Was this his first movie?

SPEAKER_03 9:19

I don't know. May maybe he did something before, but just small parts. I think this was like the first big one.

SPEAKER_00 9:27

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 9:28

But it wasn't the big budgets.

SPEAKER_00 9:30

No.

Low Budget, Loose Script, and Loose Kneecaps

SPEAKER_03 9:31

But the first main character, so to speak. I think so. I'm not sure, but Okay. So please let me know what you thought about this one.

SPEAKER_00 9:40

I'm gonna let you know what I thought about this movie.

SPEAKER_03 9:42

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 9:43

Okay, so it's really old. It is. There's that.

SPEAKER_03 9:46

It's from 79. 79. 1979.

SPEAKER_00 9:50

Right, not 1879.

SPEAKER_03 9:52

No.

SPEAKER_00 9:53

Although it could have been.

SPEAKER_03 9:54

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 9:55

Um how old is Mel Gibson?

SPEAKER_03 9:58

Mel Gibson. Uh he's uh turning uh hundred, right? 70.

SPEAKER_00 10:05

Right.

SPEAKER_03 10:06

Uh in January, and Mel Brooks turns a hundred uh next year.

SPEAKER_00 10:13

That was close. Okay, so also, um, this movie is all over the place. The script is garbage. I'm sorry. Um there's a lot of things just being randomly said. The people are weird.

SPEAKER_01 10:32

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 10:33

My biggest problem with this movie is that Mel Gibson is together with a woman.

SPEAKER_01 10:39

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 10:39

There is a child involved.

SPEAKER_01 10:41

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 10:41

I don't know if Mel Gibson is the father, but the child is the woman's the child is involved. The child is the woman's child. Okay? She literally puts this child down and walks away and does whatever the heck she wants. She comes back, the child is in a car, driving the car, or at least in the driver's seat.

SPEAKER_03 11:04

Yeah, it's in the driver's seat.

SPEAKER_00 11:05

Like, what also, there was that other scene where she was off doing whatever the heck she wants. She comes out outside, there's a blanket on the ground, there's toys, like she left the baby just like there. This baby can walk.

SPEAKER_02 11:20

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 11:20

So she like completely ignores the child for a while, comes back and finds that the baby's gone.

SPEAKER_03 11:26

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 11:26

So, in conclusion, she's not a very good mother.

SPEAKER_03 11:30

No, that's true.

SPEAKER_00 11:31

And that bothers me.

SPEAKER_03 11:33

Yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_00 11:34

Because she clearly doesn't care that much about the baby.

SPEAKER_03 11:36

Well, shouldn't that make you feel better?

SPEAKER_00 11:39

About myself.

SPEAKER_03 11:40

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 11:40

Yeah. I don't just drop my kid and walk away. No, exactly. Like a sim.

SPEAKER_03 11:45

It has kind of strange physics too, when you think about it. Okay, so one guy loses his hand.

SPEAKER_00 11:53

Right.

SPEAKER_03 11:54

Very easily.

SPEAKER_00 11:55

Yeah. It's not that difficult to lose a hand.

SPEAKER_03 11:57

No.

SPEAKER_00 11:58

They just grow right back, right?

SPEAKER_03 11:59

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 12:00

I think.

SPEAKER_03 12:01

But then later in the movie, Max, or Mel Gibson's character Max, they shoot him in the kneecap.

SPEAKER_00 12:08

Right.

SPEAKER_03 12:09

And ten minutes later he's like, sure, he's limping, but he can still walk.

SPEAKER_00 12:14

Yeah, it's you don't need kneecaps. It's just a body part that's just kind of like there.

SPEAKER_03 12:20

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 12:21

You don't you could live without it.

SPEAKER_03 12:23

Yeah. So yeah, that um I mean ask my knees.

SPEAKER_00 12:26

They just like pop out whenever they want and they're like, whatever, you're fine.

SPEAKER_03 12:29

Yeah, you don't need us.

SPEAKER_00 12:31

You don't need me. I'm just gonna go over here and watch TV or something. They have a life of their own.

SPEAKER_03 12:37

Yeah. They drive the car.

SPEAKER_00 12:39

They pay rent. They have a job. They have wives and families.

SPEAKER_03 12:45

You have to ask your kneecaps if they uh if you can borrow the car.

SPEAKER_00 12:50

Right. Yeah. We have laundry schedules.

SPEAKER_03 12:55

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 12:57

Gonna move out.

SPEAKER_00 12:58

Yeah. One of these days they're just gonna give up and leave.

SPEAKER_02 13:02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 13:03

Um, so what did I think about this movie?

SPEAKER_03 13:05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 13:06

SPEAKER_03 13:07

If you want I have a feeling.

SPEAKER_00 18:06

It feels like more should be said, but I can't think of anything. I don't remember the first time I saw this movie. Okay. But it was a big deal when it came out.

SPEAKER_03 18:14

Kangaroo Facts & Kanga Reviews Plan

SPEAKER_03 19:23

Yeah. Now we have watched another couple movies, but we watched one each.

SPEAKER_00 19:29

Right. We did our kanga reviews that we assigned each other.

SPEAKER_03 19:35

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 19:35

Yeah. I did have a question though, if kangaroos could hop backwards.

SPEAKER_03 19:40

Oh yes.

SPEAKER_00 19:41

I asked my Australian friend. Okay. Because I assume Max? No. Definitely not. No, I have an Australian friend and Crocodile Don D? No, I don't know who that is.

SPEAKER_03 19:55

Not yet.

SPEAKER_00 19:56

Okay. Um, I asked can kangaroos hop backwards? And he said, pretty sure they can't, or at least they struggle. That's why they're on our emblem. It's animals that don't go backwards. Same with the emu. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 20:11

So that was I didn't know about but don't the kangaroos go go back on their tail to kick people? I think they can do that.

SPEAKER_00 20:20

I'm not sure. I maybe, actually.

SPEAKER_03 20:23

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 20:24

I've never met a kangaroo. No. So I don't know.

SPEAKER_03 20:27

I'm pretty sure. Or if it's in a c cartoon, I've seen.

SPEAKER_00 20:30

It might be in a cartoon. So let's base our real life knowledge off of cartoons. Yes. Yeah. I can jump off of a cliff and be fine.

SPEAKER_01 20:41

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 20:42

It might hurt a little bit. Yeah. But I'll walk away from it.

SPEAKER_01 20:45

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_00 20:45

Anyway, um, we assigned each other movies to watch, and we are going to go really deep into these movies. Yeah. Right? And uh give our really long breakdown and yeah.

SPEAKER_03 21:10

SPEAKER_00 21:11

SPEAKER_03 21:21

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 21:22

Alright, you get to go first then.

Swedish RV Sequel: Chaos, Rats, and Road Trip

SPEAKER_03 21:24

Yes. Okay. So the movie I watched was Vi Had the Alpha Tume Vadritz Yem. So this is a Swedish movie. It's a sequel to Vi Had the Alpha Tume Vaderit. And this one is 28 years later than the first one. So this is from 2008. The movie is one hour and thirty-two minutes. It's directed by Shell Oke Anderson. It's starring Rolf Skoglund, Claire Wikholm, Michaela Knapp, Gustav Berry, Jacob Eriksson, Johan Glanz, Cisela Schile, Magdalena in the Betou and Robin Stegmar. Okay. So that's some other people. The movie starts off with Josta having a nightmare about an incident in the car wash from the first movie. You remember the incident?

SPEAKER_00 22:24

Yeah, he got trapped in the car wash outside the car.

SPEAKER_03 22:28

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 22:28

While I was going.

SPEAKER_03 22:30

Yeah, followed it up.

SPEAKER_00 22:31

Oh yeah, the the giant mop thing dragged him across the car.

SPEAKER_03 22:36

Yeah. Yeah. Or over the car. Yeah, so he had a nightmare about that. But you know, later he makes uh breakfast and uh he's having a pretty boring life. He just watches TV and do nothing, just stare out the window. And uh yeah, he's not too happy, it seems. But then he's on the balcony and he sees his wife, Gun, uh, approaching, so he has to put on some clothes, and then uh he's pretending like he that he's actually doing stuff when he he's at home. And then they talk about their son's wedding. You know, it's upcoming. Yosta wants to uh go on a road trip by car and trailer, like in the first movie, but Gunn says no, she doesn't like the trailer, she wants to fly there instead. And then later Josta talks to a friend at work who's about to retire, and uh his friend likes to like shoot erasers with his ruler at people he doesn't like. So I I guess he can do that now when he's retiring. And then cut two. Gun is drawing a portrait of uh nude dude, and then the teacher started hitting on her. And then we're back to just then his friend, and uh the friend is about to get uh like a gift uh certificate, uh you know, from work when he's retiring and such. Uh and when he gets that he falls down and dies.

SPEAKER_00 24:11

Not good.

SPEAKER_03 24:11

No, that's a problem. Could you imagine working your entire life and then the last day you just fall down and die? That's that's so sad. Yeah, and then um like immediately afterwards, Yosta does a health checkup to see if he's okay. And uh his doctor lady, uh she's smoking by the way.

SPEAKER_01 24:36

Oh god.

SPEAKER_03 24:37

Very good. And she tells him that the only problem with him is that he has hemorrhoids, and then she uh says the Latin word of what type of hemorrhoids, and um yeah, that's that. And then uh they go to the funeral of his friend, and uh there are seven people there, except except for the priest, and he is very stressed, he just uh zooms through this funeral, and then he says like bye, and then he leaves. He just runs out of there. And after the funeral, the widow asks What?

SPEAKER_00 25:17

Sorry, you said widow, but you heard weirdo.

SPEAKER_03 25:20

Oh, the weirdo yeah, no, the widow, widow, asks Yosta to spread the ashes of uh his friend uh at a lake that he really loved. The friend loved. He was a fisher, he liked fishing.

SPEAKER_00 25:40

I would hope so. Yeah. If he was a fisher.

SPEAKER_03 25:42

You know, a fisher that likes fishing.

SPEAKER_00 25:44

Wouldn't want to be a fisher who didn't like fishing.

SPEAKER_03 25:46

No. So now Yosta sees his chance to go on the road trip that he wants. But uh Gun really, really don't want to go with that trailer. She tells uh Yosta to sell the trailer, and he's like, okay. So he trades it to an RV instead. And you know what? Gun is not too happy about that.

SPEAKER_00 26:09

Not that either.

SPEAKER_03 26:10

No. She's so hard to please. Yeah, hard to please. You can't please her. So and she tells him uh that she doesn't want it, and then he pretends to be really sad and tries to guilt trip her, you know. So she agrees to keep the RV, but she tells him that she doesn't want them to stress during their road trip.

SPEAKER_00 26:35

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 26:36

So yeah, anyhow, now they are on the way, and uh, you know, the first thing Yosta does is he has to pass a tractor. Yeah. And he struggles doing so. He almost collides with the truck. Yeah, after that they're going to see their daughter, and uh when they arrive there, she's fighting with her husband.

SPEAKER_00 26:59

Of course.

SPEAKER_03 27:00

Yeah. Because he had been cheating with a Danish lady on a copy machine.

SPEAKER_01 27:07

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_03 27:08

Yeah. That that was a big deal for Gunn when she told on a copy machine. That that was like the the the worst part.

SPEAKER_00 27:17

Yeah, well, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 27:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 27:20

I mean that's public property.

SPEAKER_03 27:22

Yeah. Uh for some reason the husband and uh Yosta get drunk together and uh they burn the sausages on the grill.

SPEAKER_00 27:32

Oh, not the hot dogs.

SPEAKER_03 27:34

Yeah, the hot dogs. Uh they're they're not just burning, they're on fire. And uh the husband doesn't uh let Yosta leave to save the hot dogs now. He's he just wants to talk.

SPEAKER_01 27:48

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 27:49

Anyhow, then everyone goes to sleep. The day after, Yosta and Gunn are leaving and they bring their granddaughter with them. And um she's a teenage girl and she's on her phone quite a lot, texting her boyfriend like all the time. And she also mm brings her pet rat. It's actually a rat, uh-huh. Not a hamster. Alright. So then they get hungry and they go to Max. And Max, that's a Swedish hamburger place.

SPEAKER_00 28:24

Yeah, it's similar to McDonald's, I guess.

SPEAKER_03 28:27

It is, and I mean it's not just hamburgers, they do have other stuff too.

SPEAKER_00 28:33

Cheeseburgers.

SPEAKER_03 28:34

Yeah. Chicken burgers. Anyway. Anyhow, so Jesta places his order in the drive-thru, but then he uh realizes that he forgot to order coffee, so he starts backing up. Uh no. Yes. Then there's someone behind them. Uh he doesn't uh crash into them, but uh they do start like a fight because they're uh trying to order their what they want.

SPEAKER_01 29:04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 29:04

And the person behind is not just an ordinary person, it's Yuan Lans. So they start to verbally fight.

SPEAKER_00 29:14

Yeah. Over coffee. You just wanted coffee.

SPEAKER_03 29:18

Yeah. But uh, you know, Yosta just gives up and doesn't get his coffee, you know.

SPEAKER_00 29:24

Then um There's no like going inside and getting a coffee.

SPEAKER_03 29:27

No, I don't think so.

SPEAKER_00 29:28

It defeats the purpose of the drive-thru. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 29:31

Because he he talked about how nice it was just ordering and drive away. Yeah. Yeah. Um, so yeah. Uh and he uh feels like they have a tight schedule. Yeah. So Josta's gonna eat his hamburger as he's uh driving, but of course he makes a mess.

SPEAKER_01 29:51

Yep.

SPEAKER_03 29:52

And um Gun she starts to clean up his mess, and then Yuan Glantz comes to pass. Them and he sees her head going like up and down in on his lap.

SPEAKER_01 30:07

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_03 30:08

So uh Juan Glanz and his family thinks it's something else going on there.

SPEAKER_00 30:14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 30:14

I d uh yeah.

SPEAKER_00 30:16

This is typical Swedish humor. I mean it's it is kind of funny them.

SPEAKER_03 30:21

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 30:22

Oh yeah, didn't the granddaughter have like a huge problem with him eating the burger? Yeah, yeah. She's vegetarian or something.

SPEAKER_03 30:29

She's vegetarian and uh like very she thinks he's so conservative. Uh-huh. And uh he's like, I'm gonna get the biggest burger you got. Yeah, like a just cuz. Yeah, like a kid.

SPEAKER_01 30:46

Yeah.

Wedding Disasters, Gas Fiascos, and Ashes at the Lake

SPEAKER_03 30:47

Then um they arrive at a camping resort. Yesta goes to the register and um the granddaughter says to Gunn that the rat escaped. So the rat is loose in the caboose. No, in in the RB. Yeah. Okay, so when Yesta uh is at the register, he doesn't like the price um for the spot that they get. Oh god. So he starts fighting the guy at the register, and he's not verbally fighting the guy, he's physically fighting the guy, he's trying to strangle the guy. And uh, you know, the guy gets all scared, uh, so he he agrees to lower the uh price for the spot. I don't know why they didn't just call the cops. That's what I would have done. But uh yeah. Then when he gets back, um the rat is still on the loose, and uh for some reason they still have the uh door to the RV open. It's like, do you want the rat to go outside or w shouldn't you just try to keep it inside if you know it's in there somewhere?

SPEAKER_00 32:03

Yeah, maybe.

SPEAKER_03 32:04

Yeah. Maybe it's just me.

SPEAKER_00 32:06

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 32:07

Anyway. And then they get the camping spot and they have two creepy neighbors who's just sitting and staring at them.

SPEAKER_00 32:15

Oh god, oh, I didn't like them.

SPEAKER_03 32:17

No. And they keep staring at them even when they're uh eating dinner. This family just and those two are just staring at them. And the day after they're on the road again. And uh the granddaughter wanna go to Koalmorden.

SPEAKER_00 32:35

It's uh it's an animal park, right? Yeah, it's an amusement park. Yeah, like a zoo-ish thing.

SPEAKER_03 32:42

Yeah, and she wants to go there because her boyfriend works there. And then uh Yosta sees a speed camera and he ducks down and he slams Gunn's head down too, and she gets really uh upset about that. So she uh tells him to stop the car, she's about to leave, she she doesn't want to go with him anymore. And then uh Yosta tries to convince her to go with him, and uh you know he even goes as far as saying that uh when he was at the doctor's they found something, you know, w i i it was his hemorrhoids.

SPEAKER_00 33:22

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 33:22

And he makes it sound like it's cancer.

SPEAKER_00 33:26

Life-threatening. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 33:28

And of course she gets worried about him, so she's like, of course I'm gonna uh go with you and uh everything. And then they arrive at Colmordan, the Sioux, or whatever you call it, and um one of the mascots, or you know, the people in costume, uh huh. Yeah, one of them starts like they're gonna take a picture of uh uh the granddaughter and the mascot, and the mascot starts groping her, and then she starts fighting the mascot, and it's a really exaggerated fight. It's like it has slow motion, it has the wireworks, it it's like uh yeah, I don't know, it's it's so exaggerated. Kind of weird, out of place. I don't know. Yeah, you don't expect that from in this movie, but it's there.

SPEAKER_00 34:25

That's what happened.

SPEAKER_03 34:26

Yeah, and then um her boyfriend also comes to uh help her fight the other mascot. He's also a mascot, by the way. But uh yeah, they both fight the other mascot, and then it turns out he gets fired. Well, the boyfriend. Uh yeah, and um the boyfriend goes with them since he doesn't have a job anymore. And then I wrote, the boyfriend character is so annoying.

SPEAKER_00 34:52

Oh, he is.

SPEAKER_03 34:53

Yeah, so annoying. And Gunn thinks he's on drugs.

SPEAKER_00 34:58

Yeah, he's the blood key was on drugs.

SPEAKER_03 35:00

Yeah. And then they go on Safari, go through, uh, and uh they stop at uh the giraffe's Rafi's Rafi Giraffe's. Yep, and um Yosta feeds um a giraffe an apple, and then the giraffe sticks his head into the car and pukes on Yosta.

SPEAKER_00 35:22

Oh, oh yeah, oh it was gross.

SPEAKER_03 35:24

Yep, that was that. And then um after that Yosta and the boyfriend goes to pee together for some reason.

SPEAKER_00 35:32

And uh that's what men do.

SPEAKER_03 35:34

They do?

SPEAKER_00 35:35

Uh that's what I've heard. We do? I think so, yeah. Oh men like to pee together. I don't know.

Terminal Velocity: Plot, Twists, and Gold

SPEAKER_03 35:42

Yeah, I don't know. Maybe as boys, uh these are men. Yeah. Oh yeah, they're men. And uh he talks to the boyfriend uh and uh it turns out the boyfriend is fairly smart. He's gonna start uh studying, you know, like physics and stuff. Yeah, so that was uh unexpected. And then uh the granddaughter, she sees that Gun gets texts from her admirer, the teacher guy. Yeah. And um but Gun says that she would never do anything behind Justa's back, and uh especially now since he's uh sick.

SPEAKER_01 36:21

Kind of.

SPEAKER_03 36:22

Yeah. That's what she thinks.

SPEAKER_01 36:24

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 36:25

And um, yeah, so now the granddaughter know that he's sick. But then they go on the road again. The rat chews through seats and stuff in the car. Oh yeah, they they do have to get some gas soon. It's about to run out. But they pass one gas station because uh Yosta doesn't wanna he he wants to go to a better one.

SPEAKER_01 36:48

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_03 36:49

And um but they never get to another one. So they run out of gas. Now Yosta has to walk back to the gas station. He wants to hitchhike, but it's Yuan Glanz with the family, so they don't stop for him. And then uh while at the gas station, Yosta realizes that he forgot his wallet in the car.

SPEAKER_00 37:13

So And it's not that short of a walk. No, it's a really long walk, it's like miles.

SPEAKER_03 37:19

Yeah. He asks if he can like take the gas tank to go fuel his car and then come back and pay for it. But the clerk doesn't want to do that. They it's risky. Yeah. So he takes the gas tank and runs instead. Okay. Yes. So But weirdly enough, no cops.

SPEAKER_00 37:40

No, no one's no, we don't call the police. We don't like conflict. No. No.

SPEAKER_03 37:44

Yes, and then when he gets back to the RB, the he um puts some gas in it, and um then they are going again, and he he's falling asleep behind the wheel.

SPEAKER_01 37:57

Yep.

SPEAKER_03 37:57

But you know, he wakes up before anything happens, but he um realizes that he has to sleep, he has to park and you know, sleep uh in the bed. So when he wakes up the next morning, he sees that someone has stolen his tires.

SPEAKER_00 38:15

Oh. On the Oh, yeah, all of them?

SPEAKER_03 38:18

All four. Okay. So then they have to call for professional help with someone who can come with new tires.

SPEAKER_00 38:26

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 38:26

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 38:27

And then This is why you don't stop to sleep.

SPEAKER_03 38:30

Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_00 38:31

If you need to sleep, you just keep going.

SPEAKER_03 38:33

Yeah. That's how you do it.

SPEAKER_00 38:36

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 38:36

Then we cut to their son and his annoying pregnant wife, who's waiting at their wedding because they're gonna get married.

SPEAKER_00 38:46

SPEAKER_03 38:48

Yeah, so and then but you know, the RV people, I call them the RV people, you know which ones it is.

SPEAKER_00 38:55

Okay, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 38:56

They arrive at the wedding uh a little bit late, and yeah, the bride is very annoying and angry and uh pregnant and that's the annoying part, is that she's pregnant. And uh then uh the wedding starts and uh Yesta cries loudly. Yeah. And after the wedding, Yesta makes a toast and uh talks about how important family is and everything, yada yada yada.

SPEAKER_01 39:26

And uh the now uh annoying wife is not happy about that.

SPEAKER_00 39:50

SPEAKER_03 39:51

No, no, no. So then um uh Yosta and the father to the bride, uh they're going for a walk with the dog. Oh and that guy tells Yosta how much he loves his dog and everything, and then he has to take a leak, the guy. So he leaves Yosta with the dog, and the dog has a ball that uh Yosta throws, and um then uh for some reason he throws it uh like at the beach and I I I'm not sure. I think it's supposed to be that the dog falls down like a cliff or something, yeah. But it doesn't really look like it. But um, you know, uh and then um the dog lies there on the beach and I'm like, is it allergic to sand or something? Because it's it looks more like um it it just lies there for some reason.

SPEAKER_00 40:48

SPEAKER_00 41:13

Yeah, big bunny.

SPEAKER_03 41:14

Yeah, and you know, the other guy doesn't seem too upset, so uh because he wants to go back to the party.

SPEAKER_00 41:47

In case accidents happen.

SPEAKER_03 41:50

There's a nurse at the party that tells Gun that Yosta doesn't have cancer. So then um Yosta have to explain that he's not seriously ill, and um then uh Guy comes back uh with the sand allergic dog and uh everyone's yelling at Yosta. No one likes him anymore. No. Every everyone's like, that pregnant chick, she's she was right. Yeah. Because she doesn't like Yosta either. So yeah, now Josta and uh Gun are on their way to the train station because she just wants to go home. And um they make a quick stop at a gas station, and uh Yosta tries to help someone at the car wash and ends up in the same incident as in the first movie. And this was my favorite part of the movie. It was funny, it was the funniest part, according to me. And then uh when he comes out of the car wash, uh Gun is now gone. Yeah, she's not Gun anymore, she's gone now.

SPEAKER_00 42:58

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_03 42:59

No, she left.

SPEAKER_00 43:00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 43:00

Then we sh see her walking, and uh she gets picked up by Yuan Glanz with family, and uh Gun doesn't like that they speak badly about Yosta in the car. So she tells them to stop the car, and uh Yosta he goes to the lake to spread his friends' ashes. Remember that?

SPEAKER_00 43:24

Oh yeah, that was the whole point, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 43:26

Really and uh then he finds and bef befriends the rat in the car. And then he takes the boat out on the lake and he spreads the ashes, and later on he's uh made up of fire and uh talks to the rat. And then uh Gun comes through the woods calling for Yosta and he runs towards her and they hug and kiss. The end.

SPEAKER_00 43:53

Yay! Okay, okay, very good.

SPEAKER_03 43:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 43:58

It was a good essay.

SPEAKER_03 43:59

Eleven pages.

SPEAKER_00 44:00

Eleven pages. Good. Did you enjoy the movie better than the last time you watched it?

SPEAKER_03 44:08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 44:08

Can you appreciate it a little bit more?

SPEAKER_03 44:10

A little bit more. I still think uh the first one is better, although it also has some weird things going on. But uh, I mean I I do think it's it feels a little bit better watching it now. And I mean the movie's not very long either, so that's that's also That's nice. Nice. Uh so yes, I I would say that I do like it a little bit better.

SPEAKER_00 44:38

Okay, good.

SPEAKER_03 44:39

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 44:39

Okay. Is it my turn?

SPEAKER_03 44:41

Now it's your turn.

SPEAKER_00 44:42

Okay. I only have three pages, but I wrote really small. Oh.

SPEAKER_03 44:48

You also have a bigger screen.

SPEAKER_00 44:51

That's true. I watched Terminal Velocity.

SPEAKER_03 44:54

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 44:55

From 1994. It is one hour and 42 minutes, which honestly, while I was watching this, it didn't feel that long. So that was nice. It's directed by Darren Surafian. Okay. And it stars Charlie Sheen, Nastasia Kinski, and James Gandolfini.

SPEAKER_03 45:17

From Sopranos, for those who've seen that show. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 45:20

He's not in Lord of the Rings.

SPEAKER_03 45:22

No. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 45:23

It's an action mystery romance thriller. And I looked up what terminal velocity is.

SPEAKER_02 45:30

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 45:31

Terminal velocity. It is uh or really the terminal velocity of an object is the speed at which the force of drag equals the force of gravity on that object. Science lesson.

SPEAKER_03 45:46

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 45:47

So it's basically when you wave your hand around, it's the wind that you feel.

SPEAKER_03 45:51

Yeah. Yeah. It's like it's the fastest you go when you're falling, right?

SPEAKER_00 45:56

Or something.

SPEAKER_03 45:57

Something like that.

SPEAKER_00 45:59

Which apparently is kind of fast.

SPEAKER_02 46:01

Yeah.

Mid-Air Stunts, Car Drop, and Windmill Finale

SPEAKER_00 46:01

Okay, so this movie starts off with a girl driving with a gun. She stops after something falls on her car, and then there's an airplane that flies over her. She calls someone at her apartment and she speaks Russian. She's upset and she doesn't want to do something. I I didn't really catch the specifics, but she I don't want to do it.

SPEAKER_03 46:25

She doesn't want to do anything.

SPEAKER_00 46:27

No, she doesn't want to do anything. So she finds someone lurking around and she beats him up. But there's more than one guy, and they're looking for her roommate. So they dunk her head in a fish tank. She drowns and they leave, but they will be back.

SPEAKER_01 46:43

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 46:44

So they stage her body like she fell in the shower. Next scene.

SPEAKER_01 46:48

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 46:48

There's helicopters and skydivers. Charlie Sheen drops into a kid's birthday party as a stripper and ends up on the news. Uh so Charlie takes a taxi and gets a safety violation report and is told he needs to stop doing dangerous stunts. He sits in his office and some girl named Max, she's the crippled girl.

SPEAKER_02 47:10

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_00 47:10

She asks if he can train someone who wants a skydiving lesson.

SPEAKER_02 47:15

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 47:15

And then she finds a sports illustrative magazine with Charlie as a gymnast on the cover, and she laughs at him. He agrees to do the lesson immediately when he sees the student is a girl. She's giggly and nervous and convinces him to teach her immediately. Then she makes a phone call and Charlie tells a buddy his plan with her. Because he's thinking like a man.

SPEAKER_03 47:40

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 47:40

With this woman. Yeah. Yeah. Regarding the woman.

SPEAKER_03 47:43

Thinking with one specific body part.

SPEAKER_00 47:47

Right. So they fly, and Charlie tells her what to do when she jumps. And she calls him a walking penis. When he he corrects her, he is actually a flying penis.

SPEAKER_03 47:58

Yep. Big difference.

SPEAKER_00 48:00

Yeah. She sees another plane, but the pilot says they're safe. Then Charlie turns around and she's gone. She already jumped. And then he jumps after her. When she's falling, she never pulls her parachute and crashes into the ground. And then I started writing really small. Oh. Because I realized I I could do that.

SPEAKER_03 48:19

So you you were writing by hand?

SPEAKER_00 48:22

Uh yeah, with my pen. Cool. So then the ambulance arrives. I lost my spot. The ambulance alive. The ambulance alive, sir.

SPEAKER_03 48:34

The ambulance is alive.

SPEAKER_00 48:37

Well, that's good. Uh the ambulance arrives and uh Charlie is in shock. He tells the authorities what happened. He finds out that she unhooked herself before she jumped. He goes through her wallet and finds her address. So then he goes to her apartment and the door is unlocked. Because that's convenient.

SPEAKER_01 48:59

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 49:00

He looks around and a bad guy hits him and beats him up. The bad guy wants to know who he is and where the body is. Charlie pushes him through the fish tank. And Charlie steals the bad guy's knife and escapes. Yeah, that's all. Then he goes to a friend or someone and gets the knife inspected, and this guy wants to buy it. Charlie isn't interested in selling it, but he's like, I I just want to buy it. So Charlie drives to the Federal Aviation Administration. Or at least that's what the sign said. Yeah. So I assume that's what it was.

SPEAKER_03 49:39

Yeah, I guess it's it is correct then.

SPEAKER_00 49:42

Or at least they own the building. I don't know. But it's a really big and old run-down building with airplanes inside. Someone knocks on the door and it's he says that his name is Ben Pinkwater. He wants to talk to Charlie, which his name is Richard Brody.

SPEAKER_03 50:00

Yeah. Charlie about Charlie's name.

SPEAKER_00 50:03

Right. That's his character's name. Richard Brody. And um aka Ditch. Right. Ditch. And he wants to talk about Chris Marrow, which is apparently the girl who jumped. He's the deputy district attorney of Tucson. And Charlie is accused of manslaughter. Like he did this on purpose. So while he's talking to Ben, he plays pool. And he tells Ben everything, but he's really defensive. And then Ben leaves. Charlie watches a video. He goes back to his office, I guess. And he watches a video filmed when the girl, Chris. I wrote the girl for a really long time. Because I wasn't sure if that was actually her name. And I kept thinking while I was watching the movie, I should probably like go on to IMDB and check what her name was.

SPEAKER_01 50:53

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 50:53

I didn't do that, so I just kept writing the girl.

SPEAKER_01 50:56

Yeah.

History “Lesson”: Napoleon, Myths, and Height

SPEAKER_00 50:56

Chris. Yeah, it's a video filmed while when she jumped, and he saw that there was actually another plane. So he runs outside and sees a plane fly by and he rides off on his motorcycle. He rides to an old gas station and looks around. He goes inside and look yeah, he did that. He did go inside and he looked around. That's what happened. Yeah. Um, and then he gets attacked by some guy, and I found out his name is Lex.

SPEAKER_02 51:25

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 51:26

So some guy.

SPEAKER_02 51:27

Some guy.

SPEAKER_00 51:28

Lex. The girl he thought died from the skydiving lesson shows up. Chris. Which is her name.

SPEAKER_03 51:35

Yeah, it's good that you know her name now.

SPEAKER_00 51:37

Yeah, now I know. Um, she tells him that she dressed up a female body in an orange jumpsuit, and that's who he saw falling. She had unhooked herself while he was up front checking for traffic, and then she jumped and okay, these were this is like a quote from the movie because I didn't know how to put this in my own words. She jumped and maxed tracks into the blind spot behind the plane. A body dropped above, which was the other guy, Lex.

SPEAKER_02 52:07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 52:09

Shattering above. The girl was actually on her uh Chris. The girl, Chris, was actually on her way landing a mile off. The cause of death was determined to be terminal velocity. They leave and find that Lex is the funeral director and is basically making sure the body isn't properly identified. And then they get on a plane.

SPEAKER_01 52:33

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 52:34

She explains, Chris explains that the body was her old roommate who was already dead.

SPEAKER_01 52:40

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00 52:41

They jump out of the plane at night, and it's a beautiful sunset shot.

SPEAKER_03 52:48

Yeah, it's really cool.

SPEAKER_00 52:49

It's really nice. They land at a plant where they need to retrieve vital information. The roof has motion sensors. Like, there are some parts here where I was literally just writing down the subtitles because I yeah. I don't process information very well, so I just have to cheat. So Charlie lands in a tower, but he his parachute gets caught and he hangs there until the parachute rips and he falls. He heads towards the south side where there's a breaker board. Direct quote. Okay. She throws some rocks at an electric fence, which is electrified between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. Because that's what the sign said. These are important, important um tidbits. Yeah, for important. This electric fence is electrified between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m.

SPEAKER_03 53:46

Yeah, I mean it is important for uh people near the fence.

SPEAKER_00 53:52

But she uh she throws rocks at this fence.

SPEAKER_03 53:56

And it's all sparkly.

SPEAKER_00 53:57

Yeah. Some cars arrive at the plant, and Charlie finds the board and throws switches 17 and 23.

SPEAKER_03 54:04

Yep. Also important information.

SPEAKER_00 54:07

She throws a rock at the fence again.

SPEAKER_03 54:09

No spark sparkles.

SPEAKER_00 54:12

He is told to go upstairs and find door 207 marked authorized personnel. The cars are the bad guys. No, okay, the bad guys are in the cars.

SPEAKER_03 54:22

Yeah, but not the cars.

SPEAKER_00 54:26

Plot twist, it's the cars who are the bad guys, not the people. Um Charlie finds and opens the door wherever they are, like the building, wherever they they are, he he realizes why she knows where to go and what to do because she worked there.

SPEAKER_02 54:46

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 54:47

So bad guys are talking about a money drop. Charlie goes to a closet and takes down the hanger pole and finds a tube inside. Kerr is the name of the bad guy.

SPEAKER_02 55:00

Yeah.

What’s Ruining Our Lives

SPEAKER_00 55:00

Kerr. So Charlie starts to put the hanger pole and everything back as he found it, but an alarm goes off. The bad guys are looking for Charlie, so he heads for the west door to escape. Kerr is still tracking Charlie or uh Ditch. Uh I should be calling him Ditch. Because that's his name in the movie, but I kept writing Charlie. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 55:23

Um To us, he's Charlie.

SPEAKER_00 55:25

He is Charlie. We all know who I'm talking about. Yeah. And someone starts yelling and running. I don't remember which one. The girl, Chris, throws more rocks at the vents. That's all. Kerr starts shooting Charlie, and no, he just starts shooting. And Charlie jumps from the roof with a parachute. Kerr runs out of bullets, so Charlie runs away.

SPEAKER_02 55:51

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 55:51

Ditch. Charlie. Charlie Ditch is at a desk inspecting the cylinder tube thing that he found.

SPEAKER_01 55:59

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 55:59

Uh and then the phone rings. It's the girl, Chris. Charlie Ditch has questions and can he can he's can speak French. Ker and the bad guys are mafia. And Charlie wants to go to Sam's surplus highway 18 near the aqueduct with the cylinder and a witness so he can give it to her.

SPEAKER_01 56:25

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 56:25

So Charlie, Ditch, is at the meeting place, and Ben Pinkwater meets him there with his loud altoids chewing addiction. Very annoying. Didn't like him. Uh Chris arrives on a plane with Lex. So she also has a witness. They meet and go to the car and find Ben is missing. Something is off. And Lex isn't responding on Chris's earpiece. So Chris runs back to the plane to find Lex is hurt. A bad guy catches her and shoots Lex. So he's dead now. She knocks him off of her and takes his gun and runs off.

SPEAKER_03 57:03

It's not just any bad guy.

SPEAKER_00 57:05

It's the bad guy.

SPEAKER_03 57:07

It's Ben Pinkwater.

SPEAKER_00 57:09

Oh, yeah, I caught that.

SPEAKER_03 57:12

Turns out he was a bad guy.

SPEAKER_00 57:14

I'm not there yet.

SPEAKER_03 57:16

Oh, okay. But you saw the movie. I think.

SPEAKER_00 57:21

Um, so the bad guys get in cars, and Chris and Charlie, Ditch, hide behind his car, and there's a shootoff, but clearly Charlie has never used a gun. Funny scene.

SPEAKER_03 57:34

I like that one.

Live Mad Libs, Schedule, and Thank-Yous

SPEAKER_00 57:35

The car gets shot up, so they jump the fence and run away. Uh the shootoff continues, and apparently Ben is also a bad guy. Oh. Wow. Now I realized he's also a bad guy. Uh he tells her, uh, Charlie Ditch tells her the cylinder is in his car right as it gets blown up. So then they steal a rocket plane thing. It's really fast. Um, and Charlie manages to launch them out of the rocket before it crashed into a wall and there's a big explosion. Then Charlie wants to know what's going on. So uh Chris explains that she and Lex and Ben and Kerr, the bad guys, are KG used to bees.

SPEAKER_02 58:25

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 58:25

They are laid-off Russian spies. Uh and then the bad guys catch up with them in a helicopter, but they hide under a door and the helicopter leaves. They continue hiding in an old house or something by a fireplace. They get all cuddly, and she tells him her name is Krista Moldova. Moldova. Maul yes. And his name is Richard or Ditch. This is when I realized that.

SPEAKER_03 58:56

His name is not Charlie?

SPEAKER_00 58:58

It wasn't Charlie the whole time. They're drinking. And she's drinking a lot. She drinks very quickly.

SPEAKER_03 59:06

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 59:07

And uh she tells Ditch that her family and her dog whose leg got shot off or something. He's a three-legged dog named Tripod.

SPEAKER_01 59:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 59:19

Uh, they're all still in Russia. Uh while she's drinking whatever they're drinking, she swallows a worm from the bottle and then they kiss. Gross. Uh, she finds the cylinder in his shirt and hooks it up to a device with a flight chart for a plane that landed where they are a week before.

SPEAKER_01 59:40

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 59:41

And she's concerned about what the plane is carrying.

SPEAKER_03 59:45

Yeah. And I I I like the cylinder thing because it looks like a pizza slicer.

SPEAKER_00 59:51

Yeah, yeah, it does. I bet that's exactly what it is, too.

SPEAKER_03 59:55

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 59:55

Um, suddenly they're in a rush and they run away. Next scene. We see the bad guys who are mad that they can't find Chris. That was that. Ditch and Chris, because his name is Ditch, uh, they find a plane in an airplane graveyard with dead people on board.

SPEAKER_01 1:00:14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:14

Ditch requires a testicular shield from the nuclear radiation or something. Chris finds boxes of gold. Gold.

SPEAKER_03 1:00:23

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:24

There's not actually radiation, and they fight over the gold.

SPEAKER_03 1:00:28

Yeah. It was just something she came up with.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:31

Because she's funny.

SPEAKER_03 1:00:32

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:33

The bad guys board the plane, and Chris is hiding behind a dead guy, and Ditch is in the bathroom. Chris distracts the guys with the boarding, uh, the the safety speech thing. Record it's a recording on this flight. And they escape through the roof and steal a van. Then they stop at a bar and Chris tries to make a phone call, but I don't think she got through. And Ditch gets a coffee. Chris is upset over the state of Russia, and Ben is trying to get a gold deal to go through so he and his fellow bad guys can use the money to finance a coup to control to take control that will cost thousands of lives. Uh-huh. Ditch doesn't quite believe her. So she leaves in the van and the bar people get all judgy. Yeah. Because they're kind of loud with this conversation and drama. They're just like staring at them.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:33

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:34

Ditch walks to a bus stop and orders a ticket to Desert City. He finds a picture of Chris in his pocket or something, and she's holding a sign that says, Ditch did not kill me. So he runs away.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:47

Yeah. He realizes that she actually cares for him by doing that.

Fan Mail and Closing Credits

SPEAKER_00 1:01:53

Oh, okay. Uh then he almost gets hit by a truck and steals a yellow car. And the owner uh gets really excited because he has a car just like that one. Uh and Ditch drives to where there's an airplane being loaded with gold. He stops at the airway gas station or something. Airport gas station. Or there's a it's a gas station. There's also airplanes nearby.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:20

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:20

Where he finds the stolen van with bloody handprints. Chris is shoved into the trunk of a red car, and Ditch meets Chuck, this guy named Chuck, and tells him to call the county sheriff because there's a cargo jet with a thousand keys of black tar heroin and threatens his license when Chuck questions him. The red car also gets loaded on the plane, and uh Chuck is taking too long to make this phone call. So Ditch makes him take an oath and declares him as deputy. Everyone boards a plane. Oh, the bad guys get in a 747. Yeah and Ditch and Chuck get on a biplane and they all take off. Chuck freaks out. So what happens next is uh they're in the air and Ditch is going to crawl out onto the wing. When he gets stable, he has Chuck flip the plane over. Ditch hangs on by his legs, so when the plane flips back over, he's sitting on the upper wing. Chuck maneuvers up to the other plane, the bad guy plane, so Ditch can grab on. We see in the other plane, the bad guys are taking Chris out of the trunk. They beat her and want her to talk. She spits at them and they shove her back in the trunk. Ditch climbs aboard the bad guy plane and steals the plane.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:45

He steals the car.

SPEAKER_00 1:03:46

Oh, right. That's what I meant. He steals the car, not the plane. I wrote plane because I I think I was just writing fast so I can get to the next line.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:56

Yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_00 1:03:57

Um, because it was it goes fast. He uh backs the car out of the plane, not the plane. He doesn't back the plane out of the plane. I'm not sure how that works.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:08

That makes no sense.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:10

No, but he backs the car out of the plane and the plane the car falls.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:16

I I I wrote he backs it out and the plane falls.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:21

He backs the plane out of the car.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:23

And then the plane falls. Oh my god. So uh were you tired? Oh my god, yeah. At this point, we had already watched two movies. I was watching another movie and I was like, I don't want to look at a screen anymore. I was so exhausted from staring at the screens. Okay. He steals the car. He backs the car out of the plane, and the car falls.

SPEAKER_02 1:04:49

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:49

Kerr is holding on to the car. He's holding on for his life and he wants a parachute. He accidentally lets go and he flies away.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:00

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:01

Ditch accidentally breaks off the trunk opening button. So uh he takes the keys, and while the car is falling at a rapid speed, he crawls to the trunk to release Chris. And they free fall. The car explodes when it hits the ground. And they release their parachute, which burns up, but they have a backup. The bad guy plane is losing hydraulic power. Ditch and Chris land among a fail failed. A failed windmills. Windmills.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:37

A failed windmills?

SPEAKER_00 1:05:39

Failed a wimmmells. A field of windmills. The police arrive. Ditch wants to take a nap. Ditch and Chris kiss, and they get kicked in the head by a bad guy falling with a parachute. He stabs Chris and she falls, and Ditch attacks him. And they fight. The guy has a backup parachute, and so Ditch pulls it and he gets pulled into a windmill.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:03

He flies away. Whoosh.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:04

He flies away.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:06

Into the windmill. Yeah. Back at Ditch's workplace, his colleagues get a postcard from him, and they all get excited. And then we're in Russia.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:14

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:14

And there's a big ceremony. Chris gets a medal, and Ditch also gets a medal, and he salutes the troops four times. Okay. Three and a half times because the last time he fixed his hair.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:25

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:26

He he meets Chris's family and the dog tripod.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:30

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:30

The end.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:31

Oh.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:31

Yay.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:33

So what did you think about that movie?

SPEAKER_00 1:06:35

It is a good movie. I still thought it was a good movie. I never thought it wasn't a bad movie.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:40

No, but but you didn't hear that.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:43

So we're just gonna continue.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:47

It wasn't a bad movie.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:50

I never thought it wasn't a good movie.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:53

No. But you were sick. I was sick. And I I wanted you to see it, well, you know, not sick.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:00

Yeah. And I appreciate them, and I still enjoy the movie.

SPEAKER_03 1:07:04

Good. Did you remember from the first time?

SPEAKER_00 1:07:07

Yeah. There were some parts.

SPEAKER_03 1:07:09

Yeah, sometimes you tend to not um remember so much if you're sick watching a movie. Yeah. Or maybe that's just me.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:18

I mean sometimes. Yeah. But I don't even have to be sick for that.

SPEAKER_03 1:07:21

No. But this time you um you saw her uh them putting her into the trunk.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:27

Yeah, I caught that this time. Yeah, I I didn't think that he was just trying to save the car for some reason. Like just let go of the car already.

SPEAKER_03 1:07:38

You can't see it.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:39

It's not gonna make it. But she was in the trunk. So I guess it's okay.

SPEAKER_03 1:07:45

Yeah, yeah, I think this is a really good movie.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:48

It is a good movie. I enjoyed it. Are we good here?

SPEAKER_03 1:07:52

I think so.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:52

Alright. Well, let's make the second part even longer.

SPEAKER_03 1:07:56

Yeah, why not?

SPEAKER_00 1:07:57

It's still 150. Yeah. So with every tenth episode, apparently, we do a history lesson.

SPEAKER_03 1:08:06

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:06

Uh I'm going to tell you a history lesson.

SPEAKER_03 1:08:09

Yeah. You don't know what yet.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:11

You know what? I don't know what I'm gonna tell tell you about, but I look forward to teaching you something once again.

SPEAKER_03 1:08:19

Yeah. I I was thinking maybe we should try to keep this short. And um, you know, short, that makes me think about Napoleon Bonaparte. Um, do you think you could give me a history lesson about Napoleon Bonaparte?

SPEAKER_00 1:08:35

Okay. Napoleon, this is a fun story.

SPEAKER_03 1:08:38

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:38

That I know totally. Okay. So once upon a time, in the land of the French people, yeah, um, there was a guy named Napoleon. Yeah. Napoleon.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:51

Napoleon.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:52

Napoleon. Um, so he, for some reason, people think that he's short, but apparently he was average height for people at the time. Oh. I I think. So people make fun of him because he's short.

SPEAKER_03 1:09:07

Yeah, I didn't know that.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:09

You know what? I I get it because I feel like I I'm kind of average height for being me.

SPEAKER_03 1:09:16

Okay, okay. Now I get it. Now I understand what you're mean.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:20

I'm average height for me. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 1:09:22

So Okay, okay, okay, okay.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:26

So I get it.

SPEAKER_03 1:09:27

So so what you are saying is that it's just compared to you, he wasn't so short. No.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:33

No.

SPEAKER_03 1:09:34

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:35

Napoleon Bonaparte was five foot three, just like me. I don't actually know. No, but I am gonna see.

SPEAKER_02 1:09:44

We can pretend.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:44

I'm gonna find out. Yeah. And then I'm gonna let you know.

SPEAKER_02 1:09:47

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:48

Okay, so he was a little angry because people kept calling him short. I get it. Yeah. Because people do that to me too. I'm not that short.

SPEAKER_03 1:09:58

You get angry?

SPEAKER_00 1:09:59

I'm always angry. Yeah. I'm an angry short person.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:10:02

I'm not that short. And so he has to prove himself by becoming general of the French Revolution.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:13

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:10:14

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:14

Let's say that.

SPEAKER_00 1:10:15

Is that that's a thing.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:17

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:10:17

That happened.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:18

Yeah, that's in uh Le Miserab.

SPEAKER_00 1:10:21

The miserables Napoleon is the French Revolution. And so uh he had a horse that made him feel taller.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:31

Ah, that's true.

SPEAKER_00 1:10:33

Yes. And he liked his horse. His horse was named The Rock.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:37

Oh.

SPEAKER_00 1:10:38

He's like, Hayah! The Rock, let's ride. And so he led his troops to fight the other people that they were fighting.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:49

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:10:51

And I don't think they won.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:53

No, okay.

SPEAKER_00 1:10:54

No. Because no one took him seriously. Because they all called him short.

SPEAKER_03 1:11:00

Yeah, the enemies laughed themselves to death. To death. Yeah. Maybe not. Not all of them. No. Because they didn't win.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:08

Or they they won. Yeah. So the weak ones, it was a natural selection.

SPEAKER_03 1:11:14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:14

The weak ones who couldn't stop laughing, they died from laughing to death.

SPEAKER_03 1:11:19

Maybe some of uh Napoleon's uh buddies also left.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:24

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:11:24

Because he was short so short.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:26

And Napoleon was like, I'm not that short for being me.

SPEAKER_03 1:11:31

Oh I've been shorter.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:33

I've been shorter. You think this is bad? It's been worse.

SPEAKER_03 1:11:37

You should see me as a baby.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:39

Then I was short. So that's basically what he did was he uh he lost the Revolution War of the French people. Yeah. I think that's what it was called. Yeah. And uh so then the English took over uh England or France.

SPEAKER_03 1:12:02

They took over England. Okay, so that that's a completely other story. It doesn't really have anything to do with this, but sure.

SPEAKER_00 1:12:12

I mean, with it being the British who wanted to go around and take over all the countries, yeah. I wouldn't be surprised if they were like, there's no other no other country to take over. We're gonna take over England. This is our country now. Within the queen was like the queen was like, yeah, okay. Go ahead. I uh I give in white flags and go ahead, Napoleon, take over England. Yeah, no, he's not English, he's French, he's French, and he did not take over England, but it was probably Columbus. Oh he was Spanish, it was um it was Ricky Gervais, I don't know. He took over England, and the Queen said that's okay.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:00

Yeah, and then then he made a museum.

SPEAKER_00 1:13:04

He made a museum in New York.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:13:10

He's like, there's nothing left for me to do in England.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:13

I'm going to show off your England, so I'm gonna show off everything I've done in New York. Yep. Yep, cool. Uh so that was Napoleon?

SPEAKER_00 1:13:22

That was Napoleon. The short story of Napoleon and the French people and England led by Ricky Ricky Gervaise. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:31

Yeah. And The Rock is a horse.

SPEAKER_00 1:13:34

He's a horse. Uh yeah, that's my story. I hope you learned something.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:42

Yes, I think so. And um, yeah, no I have to find out now. No question marks here.

SPEAKER_00 1:13:49

No good. Hey Google. Hey Google, how tall was Napoleon Bonaparte? He was five feet six or seven inches.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:57

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 1:13:57

Which is about 168 to 170 centimeters. Okay. He was taller than me.

SPEAKER_03 1:14:03

Yeah, he was. But there was also a dude.

SPEAKER_00 1:14:06

Yeah, so he's still taller than me. It was slightly above average for Frenchmen of his area. People say Napoleon was short due to a perfect storm of confusion involving propaganda because his British enemies created highly effective political cartoons that mocked him and portrayed him as tiny. A measurement error?

SPEAKER_03 1:14:26

Uh, it was Ricky Gervais.

SPEAKER_00 1:14:28

It was Ricky Gervaise. He said he was short.

SPEAKER_03 1:14:32

How tall is Ricky Gervais?

SPEAKER_00 1:14:33

Hey Google, how tall is Ricky Gervais? He is five feet eight inches, which is only one inch taller than Napoleon. That's way taller. Oh, so Napoleon is short by one inch. Yeah. It's only one inch. You're still short.

unknown 1:14:48

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:14:49

We actually did learn something today. And it was height related.

SPEAKER_03 1:14:54

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:14:54

Is that all?

SPEAKER_03 1:14:55

Uh yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:14:56

We don't have anything.

SPEAKER_03 1:14:57

No. I'm all out of sips.

SPEAKER_00 1:14:59

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 1:14:59

So that means we're all out of episode.

SPEAKER_00 1:15:02

Would you like to wrap this up?

SPEAKER_03 1:15:03

SPEAKER_03 1:16:16
