WEBVTT

00:00:03.859 --> 00:00:08.220
All right, can I do my number two, please? My

00:00:08.220 --> 00:00:13.779
number two is Boonstone. Oh, sorry Boonstone.

00:00:14.060 --> 00:00:18.120
Yeah So, you know like you Like we spoke about

00:00:18.120 --> 00:00:21.920
in text RIP Val Kilmer just super sad Another

00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:24.719
phenomenal actor who but to me he will always

00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:29.820
be Doc Holliday Not Batman or the guy in heat

00:00:29.820 --> 00:00:32.609
or sorry can't remember all their names The guy

00:00:32.609 --> 00:00:37.429
in Real Genius is super cool, or Iceman. But

00:00:37.429 --> 00:00:39.829
yeah, Doc Holliday, his performance is Doc Holliday.

00:00:40.570 --> 00:00:43.990
Kurt Russell, all those guys. And this is just

00:00:43.990 --> 00:00:47.350
quintessential Western to me. I think Unforgiven,

00:00:47.490 --> 00:00:50.750
the Clint Eastwood movie that got so many raves

00:00:50.750 --> 00:00:53.109
I've watched recently. And it just doesn't hold

00:00:53.109 --> 00:00:56.090
up. I think it's very woodenly active, like a

00:00:56.090 --> 00:00:58.009
lot of his movies. I don't know. I don't understand

00:00:58.009 --> 00:01:00.810
the love for Unforgiven. And it's crazy to me

00:01:00.810 --> 00:01:03.030
again tombstone not in the top ten of the box

00:01:03.030 --> 00:01:05.870
office that year if you know if you ask me today

00:01:05.870 --> 00:01:08.849
The tombstone and it's just the top ten, you

00:01:08.849 --> 00:01:11.269
know in 93. I love to said absolutely Yes, it's

00:01:11.269 --> 00:01:14.829
just crazy to me that it didn't but yeah, just

00:01:14.829 --> 00:01:18.569
a phenomenal Western and just great movie overall

00:01:18.569 --> 00:01:22.370
well -acted and fun and characters and lines

00:01:22.370 --> 00:01:26.609
you can quote So yeah tombstone awesome. Awesome

00:01:26.609 --> 00:01:30.750
movie and all those guys at the tops of their

00:01:30.750 --> 00:01:35.750
careers that were Doc Holliday and the other

00:01:35.750 --> 00:01:41.069
guys. Just a who's who. Sam Elliott as Brother

00:01:41.069 --> 00:01:45.489
Virgil. Kurt Russell, my favorite from that movie,

00:01:45.870 --> 00:01:51.329
as Wyatt Earp. This is one you can watch again

00:01:51.329 --> 00:01:54.989
and again. You can watch it and give it a couple

00:01:54.989 --> 00:01:57.510
years and then go back and watch it and you'll

00:01:57.510 --> 00:02:00.989
wanna You won't get to a point where you're like,

00:02:01.069 --> 00:02:02.950
all right, I've seen this already. I'm gonna

00:02:02.950 --> 00:02:05.329
turn it off. That was great 10 years ago. But

00:02:05.329 --> 00:02:08.050
every time you watch it, it's just that movie.

00:02:08.069 --> 00:02:10.349
You wanna watch the whole thing and push everything

00:02:10.349 --> 00:02:13.629
aside. Maybe flip the lights off, close the blinds

00:02:13.629 --> 00:02:17.689
or whatever and just get immersed in it. It's

00:02:17.689 --> 00:02:21.629
just a stunning performance, I would say by Val

00:02:21.629 --> 00:02:27.180
Kilmer and almost tragic that he did not. He

00:02:27.180 --> 00:02:29.919
wasn't even nominated for an Academy Award for

00:02:29.919 --> 00:02:33.919
this movie or any others. He was nominated in

00:02:33.919 --> 00:02:39.379
Tombstone for MTV Movie and TV Awards for Tombstone,

00:02:39.379 --> 00:02:43.599
but Yeah, RIP to him. Great movie. Loved him

00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:45.879
in Maverick. I thought it was great that Tom

00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:49.819
Cruise gave him a proper sendoff. Just a horrible,

00:02:50.520 --> 00:02:52.759
horrible to lose people that young of an age

00:02:52.759 --> 00:02:56.659
man and F cancer. Yeah. just really sad and sucks

00:02:56.659 --> 00:03:00.080
but anyways i have a good idea what your number

00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.259
two or number one would be so what's what's your

00:03:02.259 --> 00:03:07.539
number two number two and give me just a second

00:03:07.539 --> 00:03:10.639
because i've got like five here that are possible

00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:14.520
and okay well while you look let me just read

00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:16.319
out some of the other films that came out in

00:03:16.319 --> 00:03:19.509
1993 while you're looking okay So in the top

00:03:19.509 --> 00:03:22.349
10, we already said Jurassic Park was one, Doubtfire

00:03:22.349 --> 00:03:25.389
two, The Fugitive, Schindler's List, and Decent

00:03:25.389 --> 00:03:28.490
Proposal, Cliffhanger, Sleepless in Seattle,

00:03:28.889 --> 00:03:31.370
Philadelphia, The Throne, The Pelican Grief,

00:03:31.430 --> 00:03:33.750
those were all in the top 10. And then you had

00:03:33.750 --> 00:03:36.990
Alive, which was a crazy movie, but really good.

00:03:37.069 --> 00:03:38.590
I wanna watch it in the theater and had no idea

00:03:38.590 --> 00:03:41.870
what I was getting into. Hot Shots, part two,

00:03:42.110 --> 00:03:45.770
part two, which was great. Last Action Hero,

00:03:45.909 --> 00:03:48.270
a lot of people. points of that is the end of

00:03:48.270 --> 00:03:51.009
Arnold Schwarzenegger and the end of Stallone

00:03:51.009 --> 00:03:53.330
and Schwarzenegger and all those guys in those

00:03:53.330 --> 00:03:56.009
movies from the 80s and late 80s that kind of

00:03:56.009 --> 00:03:58.569
dominated, you know, that was the first big flop,

00:03:59.050 --> 00:04:01.110
whereas any of those movies those guys came out

00:04:01.110 --> 00:04:03.370
with just printed money and were guaranteed to

00:04:03.370 --> 00:04:06.449
be big hits. One of the strangest sequels of

00:04:06.449 --> 00:04:09.750
all time, Weekend at Bernie's 2, just like, how

00:04:09.750 --> 00:04:15.280
do you get a movie made where guys carry around

00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:18.319
the corpse of their dead boss for a second weekend.

00:04:21.339 --> 00:04:23.620
I think it has something to do with voodoo and

00:04:23.620 --> 00:04:29.160
I mean just the most insane bat shit crazy idea

00:04:29.160 --> 00:04:30.980
for a movie and obviously the first one made

00:04:30.980 --> 00:04:33.540
more money than they were expecting and I think

00:04:33.540 --> 00:04:35.839
the second one you know people finally were like

00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:38.839
why would I want to go see this dead guy pretend

00:04:38.839 --> 00:04:42.269
to dance for a second time. One that I was super

00:04:42.269 --> 00:04:44.509
excited for just because I grew up with it, but

00:04:44.509 --> 00:04:47.089
totally bombed And it was insane was the Super

00:04:47.089 --> 00:04:49.350
Mario Brothers movie. Oh, yeah I don't know if

00:04:49.350 --> 00:04:52.110
you're a video game guy, but when they and they

00:04:52.110 --> 00:04:53.889
um, you know I've never seen the first trailer

00:04:53.889 --> 00:04:56.689
for that and I was like what the heck is this?

00:04:57.029 --> 00:04:58.730
You know, I guess they didn't want to do a cartoon

00:04:58.730 --> 00:05:02.230
and they didn't have CGI stuff like you know,

00:05:02.449 --> 00:05:04.730
we have nowadays the newer Super Mario Brothers

00:05:04.730 --> 00:05:08.790
movie But it was just nuts like Dennis Hoppers

00:05:08.790 --> 00:05:12.620
was King Koopa Bob Hoskins and John Lo Guazzamo

00:05:12.620 --> 00:05:16.920
or Mario and Luigi. It's just so bad. Let's see,

00:05:17.100 --> 00:05:18.959
Robin Hood, Men in Tights. It's the first time

00:05:18.959 --> 00:05:21.220
I ever saw Dave Chappelle. It's a hilarious one.

00:05:22.420 --> 00:05:25.040
True Romance, to me, is like the first Quentin

00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:26.740
Tarantino movie, even though he didn't direct

00:05:26.740 --> 00:05:29.759
it, he wrote it. So it's just a phenomenal movie.

00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:32.620
And one of those that opened my eyes, as we've

00:05:32.620 --> 00:05:35.639
said, like in early adolescence, definitely one

00:05:35.639 --> 00:05:38.500
of those that didn't fit neatly into any category.

00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:42.579
And it just was... so cool and so stylish and

00:05:42.579 --> 00:05:44.639
Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette are awesome.

00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:50.300
The program, it's a nominal football movie. You

00:05:50.300 --> 00:05:52.500
know, obviously a ripoff of FSU, but that was

00:05:52.500 --> 00:05:55.519
a great one that we kind of quoted quite a bit.

00:05:55.759 --> 00:05:58.680
Waves World 2, another sequel that nobody really

00:05:58.680 --> 00:06:03.959
asked for, but still really funny. And the ultimate

00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:05.339
one, the one that's probably had the longest

00:06:05.339 --> 00:06:10.460
lasting impact, not for me, but culturally. And

00:06:10.460 --> 00:06:12.779
then pop culture is the night before Christmas,

00:06:13.160 --> 00:06:15.959
nightmare before Christmas. It's just still to

00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:18.759
this day as popular as it was back then. I feel

00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:21.420
like probably more popular, especially with Halloween

00:06:21.420 --> 00:06:23.639
becoming bigger. I mean, you see now that people

00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:26.480
decorate their yards for Halloween, 90 % of them,

00:06:26.560 --> 00:06:28.160
it seems like these nightmare before Christmas

00:06:28.160 --> 00:06:30.959
stuff. So it's one of those that didn't get the

00:06:30.959 --> 00:06:33.360
love at the time that has held up. I mean, you

00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:35.600
can see just from all those I just read off,

00:06:36.019 --> 00:06:40.519
it's a heck of a year for movies. Jim I'm gonna

00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:43.720
announce a couple runners up that after I announced

00:06:43.720 --> 00:06:45.839
number two, they're obviously not gonna be number

00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:52.620
one Already throughout mr. Nanny Robocop three

00:06:52.620 --> 00:06:56.279
just not gonna not gonna crack the top five and

00:06:56.279 --> 00:07:03.500
let's be honest not gonna crack the top 20 Sister

00:07:03.500 --> 00:07:06.339
act two it's another one. I could I could go

00:07:06.339 --> 00:07:10.259
back and watch it if if Natalie You know, we

00:07:10.259 --> 00:07:12.079
wrap up the episode. She says hey, let's let's

00:07:12.079 --> 00:07:14.860
watch Sister Act 2. I got a babysitter I'm all

00:07:14.860 --> 00:07:24.899
in But not top five Rudy I've always appreciated

00:07:24.899 --> 00:07:29.519
Rudy but for me, it's just doesn't get doesn't

00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:34.740
really Get the blood flowing like it is supposed

00:07:34.740 --> 00:07:39.189
to for me, but it's a great movie It is dazed

00:07:39.189 --> 00:07:41.709
and confused is a very tough one for me to leave

00:07:41.709 --> 00:07:43.850
off the list, but I'm not finding room for it

00:07:43.850 --> 00:07:47.449
now Maybe I could have scratched rookie of the

00:07:47.449 --> 00:07:51.129
year, but But maybe I couldn't because it's it's

00:07:51.129 --> 00:07:57.449
the Cubs It belongs there Carlito's Carlito's

00:07:57.449 --> 00:08:02.529
way Mmm, and what are you old man grumpy old

00:08:02.529 --> 00:08:05.910
man? I'm gonna throw one more out here and then

00:08:05.910 --> 00:08:11.459
announce my number two Alive I really really

00:08:11.459 --> 00:08:16.519
want to put alive on this list Jim And I could

00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:20.579
I could go back and watch it again But it's one

00:08:20.579 --> 00:08:26.180
of those where you get a little like faux nauseous

00:08:26.180 --> 00:08:29.439
Yeah, thinking about do I want to watch this?

00:08:29.540 --> 00:08:34.480
I've seen it. I've watched every Watch the development

00:08:34.480 --> 00:08:37.990
of this movie and Don't know if I want to do

00:08:37.990 --> 00:08:42.370
that to myself again, but yeah, I Just but I

00:08:42.370 --> 00:08:45.929
think it's a remarkable film So coming in for

00:08:45.929 --> 00:08:50.529
me at number two is Your number five Groundhog

00:08:50.529 --> 00:08:57.090
Day No And part of this is good choice. I think

00:08:57.090 --> 00:09:00.649
anything that Bill Murray's in is He's one of

00:09:00.649 --> 00:09:04.570
those actors that once he's gone and really this

00:09:04.570 --> 00:09:09.379
is Kind of his heyday the 90s. Oh Some but some

00:09:09.379 --> 00:09:13.120
people would say the 80s You just don't get too

00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:15.720
many Bill Murray's in a generation or two or

00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:20.279
three No, and I wonder who was who else was considered

00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:23.080
for this role, but he's just absolutely perfect

00:09:23.080 --> 00:09:27.840
for it Andy McDowell Chris Elliott Everything

00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:34.940
and Ryerson needle knows Ned Because of the charm

00:09:34.940 --> 00:09:39.500
of this movie, I remember watching 50 First Dates,

00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:44.100
Adam Sandler and... Uh, Barrymore. Drew Barrymore's

00:09:44.100 --> 00:09:47.460
in both of those. Drew Barrymore. She's in The

00:09:47.460 --> 00:09:50.080
Wedding Singer and 50 First Dates. I think 50

00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:52.940
First Dates, it's a really fun movie to watch.

00:09:53.519 --> 00:09:55.559
But it all kind of started with Groundhog Day.

00:09:57.340 --> 00:10:00.820
It did. Those repeat the days have become pretty

00:10:00.820 --> 00:10:03.519
common now, but yeah, it was a good one. You

00:10:03.519 --> 00:10:05.679
know widely considered to be definitely from

00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:09.220
this decade one of the best and possibly one

00:10:09.220 --> 00:10:14.379
of the greatest comedy films ever made And you

00:10:14.379 --> 00:10:19.080
need Bill Murray to do that There's a movie that

00:10:19.080 --> 00:10:22.019
I listened to bill on a whose podcast it was

00:10:22.019 --> 00:10:25.679
this it may have been Mark Mirren And he talks

00:10:25.679 --> 00:10:27.620
about a movie that he pretty much ad -libbed

00:10:27.620 --> 00:10:37.590
all the way through It was Meatballs, oh Yeah,

00:10:37.590 --> 00:10:40.789
he basically said, you know nothing against the

00:10:40.789 --> 00:10:43.389
screenwriters Yeah, it was it was written by

00:10:43.389 --> 00:10:47.490
kind of a team of writers including a Dan Goldberg

00:10:47.490 --> 00:10:50.669
really, but he looked at it and I guess when

00:10:50.669 --> 00:10:53.509
it was time to To start shooting these scenes,

00:10:53.509 --> 00:10:55.970
you know, he just he just did what he wanted

00:10:55.970 --> 00:11:01.320
to do Bill Murray's a class. It's just all -time

00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:04.379
or for sure I think somebody said or I read somewhere

00:11:04.379 --> 00:11:06.299
one time that he doesn't have an agent He just

00:11:06.299 --> 00:11:09.360
has an answering machine so you could Somehow

00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:11.600
got the number you could call the answer machine

00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:13.480
and leave your pitch for the movie that you wanted

00:11:13.480 --> 00:11:15.559
him to be in And he either would call you back

00:11:15.559 --> 00:11:18.659
or delete the answer machine message so he yeah,

00:11:18.659 --> 00:11:21.820
he's just a character and You know one of the

00:11:21.820 --> 00:11:23.679
greatest comedy actors of all time and agreed

00:11:23.679 --> 00:11:25.399
on Groundhog Day I don't know who else could

00:11:25.399 --> 00:11:27.659
have done that and so thankful they haven't tried

00:11:27.659 --> 00:11:30.600
to remake that yet Either that's mainly what

00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:32.519
my takeaway from looking back at all these and

00:11:32.519 --> 00:11:35.460
I'm so glad they haven't tried to reboot Any

00:11:35.460 --> 00:11:38.539
of them yet? So then I got let's just do number

00:11:38.539 --> 00:11:41.539
one I imagine it's the same movie if I had to

00:11:41.539 --> 00:11:45.139
guess knowing you and knowing me Well, I left

00:11:45.139 --> 00:11:49.879
one off Oh No, we might differ on this one. What's

00:11:49.879 --> 00:11:53.039
your number one? Well, it's the greatest baseball

00:11:53.039 --> 00:11:57.779
movie of all time. It's infinitely quotable It

00:11:57.779 --> 00:12:00.940
did not get any love in 1993. I think it made

00:12:00.940 --> 00:12:04.100
12 million dollars like we said Jurassic Park

00:12:04.100 --> 00:12:11.000
made 914 and Just again infinitely quotable one

00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:15.379
of my favorites it's total slice of life like

00:12:15.379 --> 00:12:17.179
I said with days and views even though this one

00:12:17.179 --> 00:12:21.179
takes place in the 60s I felt every second of

00:12:21.179 --> 00:12:23.159
it and lived every one of these days that these

00:12:23.159 --> 00:12:27.009
kids had and that is the same a lot That's right

00:12:27.009 --> 00:12:30.809
the best movie baseball movie I think ever made

00:12:30.809 --> 00:12:34.990
and Maybe one of the as a boy or man one of the

00:12:34.990 --> 00:12:39.570
best representations of boyhood That I can remember

00:12:39.570 --> 00:12:41.710
on film. It just does not get nearly the credit.

00:12:41.730 --> 00:12:47.110
It should an infinitely entertaining and Quotable

00:12:47.110 --> 00:12:50.330
and just such a great movie. Let me smile my

00:12:50.330 --> 00:12:54.190
favorites. Yeah, you're killing the smalls for

00:12:59.339 --> 00:13:02.960
So, yeah, just Yeah, not only one of the best

00:13:02.960 --> 00:13:05.879
movie of 93, but probably one of my top Five

00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:08.559
or six movies of all time. I just love the Sandlot

00:13:08.559 --> 00:13:10.940
Yeah, that's not your number one. I'm gonna be

00:13:10.940 --> 00:13:12.799
shocked then I thought that was what we're leading

00:13:12.799 --> 00:13:16.820
up to I have to put it at number one I'm in total

00:13:16.820 --> 00:13:19.820
agreement with you and I have to for the record

00:13:19.820 --> 00:13:22.379
put tombstone at number six because I just cannot

00:13:22.590 --> 00:13:25.429
Have it be assumed that that's so far down the

00:13:25.429 --> 00:13:30.590
list. Yeah You know ask me next week and maybe

00:13:30.590 --> 00:13:34.149
tombstone is has now replaced doubt fire maybe

00:13:34.149 --> 00:13:37.529
but Man for the pelican brief. Did you just pull

00:13:37.529 --> 00:13:43.870
that? I don't believe that's I feel like you

00:13:43.870 --> 00:13:46.690
got stuck and you didn't do a show research here

00:13:46.690 --> 00:13:49.870
animal Maybe pelican brief. Maybe we put tombstone

00:13:49.870 --> 00:13:53.840
in there There you go. I think it's like go ahead

00:13:53.840 --> 00:13:57.860
and flip -flop this But yeah the number three

00:13:57.860 --> 00:14:01.000
the sandlot, you know, usually guys our age we

00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:04.259
celebrate it You there's very few of us that

00:14:04.259 --> 00:14:05.820
would say I don't know what you're talking about.

00:14:05.860 --> 00:14:10.460
I never saw it, but we all saw it but How many

00:14:10.460 --> 00:14:14.799
of us are actively? It's hard. It is hard to

00:14:14.799 --> 00:14:16.799
individually try to create this environment for

00:14:16.799 --> 00:14:21.809
your kids, but Just the idea of sandlot baseball

00:14:21.809 --> 00:14:25.009
Free -roaming free -playing in the summertime.

00:14:25.149 --> 00:14:28.830
Everything is so Bicycles frickin structured

00:14:28.830 --> 00:14:32.750
now. It's like let these kids have some moments

00:14:32.750 --> 00:14:37.090
where they just wander off without your Supervision

00:14:37.090 --> 00:14:41.470
and your your helicoptering For four to five

00:14:41.470 --> 00:14:47.070
hours on a summer day Yeah, I feel like that's

00:14:46.889 --> 00:14:50.610
That's gone but depending on where you live or

00:14:50.610 --> 00:14:55.730
what your Little enclave your your family is

00:14:55.730 --> 00:14:59.370
a part of her But man, we I used to go we I don't

00:14:59.370 --> 00:15:01.769
know if you did home run derby But we'd go take

00:15:01.769 --> 00:15:05.690
a tennis balls or baseballs and oh, yeah. Yeah

00:15:05.690 --> 00:15:07.789
Home run dirt. We wander around the neighborhood

00:15:07.789 --> 00:15:11.649
Sometimes it nights. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely It

00:15:11.649 --> 00:15:14.289
doesn't yeah, we did not have a sand lock that

00:15:14.289 --> 00:15:16.250
we would go play ball at we didn't even play

00:15:16.429 --> 00:15:18.809
Baseball that much but for sure home run derby,

00:15:19.009 --> 00:15:21.649
but just uh, you know riding bikes having your

00:15:21.649 --> 00:15:24.289
best friends Running around the neighborhood

00:15:24.289 --> 00:15:27.590
experiment with tobacco that you should you know,

00:15:28.450 --> 00:15:31.350
like I remember the first time My buddy brought

00:15:31.350 --> 00:15:33.309
one of his mom's cigarettes down and we smoked

00:15:33.309 --> 00:15:35.149
it. That was just we thought we were so cool,

00:15:35.169 --> 00:15:38.490
but we're you know Basically won the bar. It's

00:15:38.490 --> 00:15:40.309
just like the end of the fair with the tobacco.

00:15:40.309 --> 00:15:43.509
I mean, it's just like everything it's like I

00:15:43.509 --> 00:15:46.200
wrote that um doesn't get nearly enough credit

00:15:46.200 --> 00:15:50.759
because it really encapsulates boyhood um and

00:15:50.759 --> 00:15:53.379
i'm sure females have similar instances but just

00:15:53.379 --> 00:15:55.899
you know crushing on the lifeguard go to the

00:15:55.899 --> 00:15:59.220
community pool i mean you know play with your

00:15:59.220 --> 00:16:01.720
friends going out after dark like you said it's

00:16:01.720 --> 00:16:04.879
just such a great encapsulation of that time

00:16:04.879 --> 00:16:08.100
in our lives even though we weren't in the 60s

00:16:08.100 --> 00:16:11.200
there's some value and i hope that i can because

00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:13.700
right now we've got a little little gang of kids

00:16:13.700 --> 00:16:17.659
it's not very large but and they're general in

00:16:17.659 --> 00:16:19.840
the neighborhood and they're generally good boys

00:16:19.840 --> 00:16:22.139
uh that come around and they play with Warren

00:16:22.139 --> 00:16:23.659
and Wyatt so that all of a sudden there'll be

00:16:23.659 --> 00:16:28.379
like five of them and on our our little street

00:16:28.379 --> 00:16:32.879
here I don't now two years ago I didn't let them

00:16:32.879 --> 00:16:36.080
shoot out but uh Vivian you kind of got to watch

00:16:36.080 --> 00:16:39.559
her but it won't be very long before I let them

00:16:39.559 --> 00:16:42.769
go play and You guys know where you're going

00:16:42.769 --> 00:16:44.669
and where you don't you're not supposed to go

00:16:44.669 --> 00:16:47.830
but there's just a little I think I don't know

00:16:47.830 --> 00:16:50.809
if it's all paranoia about Where your kids are

00:16:50.809 --> 00:16:53.690
going? Are they gonna get abducted? I don't know

00:16:53.690 --> 00:16:55.669
if that's a big part of it I think we just feel

00:16:55.669 --> 00:16:58.549
like we have to build in all these activities

00:16:58.549 --> 00:17:01.570
For our kids and just keep them busy keep them

00:17:01.570 --> 00:17:04.069
locked in and they'll stay out of trouble that

00:17:04.069 --> 00:17:11.230
way Let them get into some stuff and kids Should

00:17:11.230 --> 00:17:14.730
have like I said those It didn't have to be four

00:17:14.730 --> 00:17:18.430
or five hours, but how about just an hour or

00:17:18.430 --> 00:17:21.009
an hour and a half? Where there's no there's

00:17:21.009 --> 00:17:22.730
not an adult around and they're in the neighborhood

00:17:22.730 --> 00:17:24.829
and it's it's safe All right, you know depending

00:17:24.829 --> 00:17:27.150
on where you live. It's safe enough. Just let

00:17:27.150 --> 00:17:31.190
them go. Let them go explore and I think they

00:17:31.190 --> 00:17:33.150
I think this generation talking about the guy

00:17:33.150 --> 00:17:35.789
at the counter at the ice cream store wherever

00:17:35.789 --> 00:17:40.400
that's so lacking in any kind of expression or

00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:46.819
interest Social skills maybe didn't get that

00:17:46.819 --> 00:17:49.279
Yeah, and we might have been that way when we

00:17:49.279 --> 00:17:51.240
were four to fifteen, but I feel like I still

00:17:51.240 --> 00:17:54.240
would say hi What can I get for you? But yes

00:17:54.240 --> 00:17:58.099
exactly and we're always gonna be Better than

00:17:58.099 --> 00:18:00.140
the generation that comes after us and it's been

00:18:00.140 --> 00:18:03.240
like that since caveman, you know, but man I

00:18:03.240 --> 00:18:06.200
hope that I doubt it will happen. But I hope

00:18:06.200 --> 00:18:10.430
that that guy or his kids that age can Soon see

00:18:10.430 --> 00:18:12.769
a movie that reminds them how great it is to

00:18:12.769 --> 00:18:16.329
be young and have that freedom and have that

00:18:16.329 --> 00:18:18.269
fun and have that group of friends and buddies

00:18:18.269 --> 00:18:21.569
that you know You just can't live without and

00:18:21.569 --> 00:18:24.109
Yeah, it's just such a great movie in such a

00:18:24.109 --> 00:18:26.809
good time. And yeah, I can't say much more about

00:18:26.809 --> 00:18:30.630
it Besides what I already have I like the kids.

00:18:30.809 --> 00:18:35.009
Oh, yeah the dog, you know With the ball rolls.

00:18:35.329 --> 00:18:41.029
Yeah that's another another example of I think

00:18:41.029 --> 00:18:43.390
it's pretty healthy for kids to run into a scenario

00:18:43.390 --> 00:18:46.829
that's a little scary maybe not life -threatening

00:18:46.829 --> 00:18:51.170
but between the four or five or six of them you

00:18:51.170 --> 00:18:52.890
know let's just say it's a group that's aged

00:18:52.890 --> 00:18:58.730
seven to nine and they got to figure it out amongst

00:18:58.730 --> 00:19:01.109
themselves there's no adult around and they're

00:19:01.109 --> 00:19:04.069
not like a mile away from their parents but just

00:19:04.069 --> 00:19:06.170
stuff like that in the neighborhood How are we

00:19:06.170 --> 00:19:07.509
going to tackle this? How are we going to figure

00:19:07.509 --> 00:19:12.609
this out? Oh, yeah. The Sandlot won the Young

00:19:12.609 --> 00:19:15.549
Artist Award for Outstanding Youth Ensemble.

00:19:16.289 --> 00:19:19.069
An emotion picture was also nominated for Family

00:19:19.069 --> 00:19:23.170
Film Award for Best Iconic Family Film in twenty

00:19:23.170 --> 00:19:27.950
twenty four. Took a long time. Wow. Well deserved.

00:19:28.269 --> 00:19:30.890
I mean, it's absolutely if you're a parent with

00:19:30.890 --> 00:19:33.630
young kids. Want her struggling to find things

00:19:33.630 --> 00:19:35.450
to watch in the family that you haven't seen

00:19:35.450 --> 00:19:37.890
that yet pop it in or pull it up on whatever

00:19:37.890 --> 00:19:40.769
streaming services on and watch it I don't make

00:19:40.769 --> 00:19:44.369
them like that anymore for sure. I Actually wish

00:19:44.369 --> 00:19:48.089
I'm coaching t -ball this year, but I wish that

00:19:48.089 --> 00:19:53.349
there was a sandlot type league where you It's

00:19:53.349 --> 00:19:56.529
kind of it's it's better visualized than maybe

00:19:56.529 --> 00:20:00.349
actualized but we just let the kids play and

00:20:00.349 --> 00:20:02.950
you have You let them figure out the structure

00:20:02.950 --> 00:20:06.789
of it. Yeah Well, you can you should be the leader

00:20:06.789 --> 00:20:09.049
of that man. Just get you already have a coach

00:20:09.049 --> 00:20:11.710
you already Tell them I'm taking Warren, you

00:20:11.710 --> 00:20:13.470
know once the seasons over I'm gonna take Warren

00:20:13.470 --> 00:20:17.490
up to this field at 1 o 'clock on Saturday Bring

00:20:17.490 --> 00:20:20.289
everybody in their gloves, you know, and if it's

00:20:20.289 --> 00:20:22.670
not an actual little league field that you can

00:20:22.670 --> 00:20:25.250
Get on the books for rent. Just go to a dang

00:20:25.250 --> 00:20:28.849
open grassy field of the park, you know They're

00:20:28.849 --> 00:20:32.789
not gonna be hitting 300 foot bombs So, yeah,

00:20:32.890 --> 00:20:36.009
just you facilitate that. It's unfortunate that

00:20:36.009 --> 00:20:37.509
that's probably what has to happen because kids

00:20:37.509 --> 00:20:39.809
don't want to socially do something like that

00:20:39.809 --> 00:20:42.049
on their own, but you can totally do that if

00:20:42.049 --> 00:20:47.069
you start it up. Hmm. Jim, that sounded like

00:20:47.069 --> 00:20:49.890
quite a yes. Yes, animal. I'm looking at something

00:20:49.890 --> 00:20:55.250
here. Oh, so I Googled, can you, can you have

00:20:55.250 --> 00:21:00.660
a sandlot type league and AI? I have my thoughts

00:21:00.660 --> 00:21:05.859
on AI, but. Sometimes it'll spit out stuff on

00:21:05.859 --> 00:21:08.819
Google that's like. It looks like it's all true,

00:21:08.819 --> 00:21:10.480
but then you see that they actually miss some

00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:15.779
stuff. Yes, you can. You can absolutely have

00:21:15.779 --> 00:21:19.900
a Sandlot type league focusing on fun, community

00:21:19.900 --> 00:21:24.299
and low stakes baseball rather than intense competition.

00:21:24.980 --> 00:21:28.759
These leagues are often characterized by unstructured

00:21:28.759 --> 00:21:31.920
play. pick up games and a welcoming environment

00:21:31.920 --> 00:21:35.839
for all players of all skill levels. Perfect.

00:21:36.680 --> 00:21:38.980
I like most of that. I like, I like the, I like

00:21:38.980 --> 00:21:41.759
the competition. Don't get me wrong. Uh, maybe

00:21:41.759 --> 00:21:45.579
not intense. I see stuff. It's not just unique

00:21:45.579 --> 00:21:48.859
to our community here, but sometimes it feels

00:21:48.859 --> 00:21:50.759
like the dads are competing with each other,

00:21:50.920 --> 00:21:55.779
the different coaches. Sure. Um, Jim, you got

00:21:55.779 --> 00:22:00.339
time. You got time for a. A few Dan time, maybe

00:22:00.339 --> 00:22:03.319
rapid fire garbage time questions. Yes, sir.

00:22:03.319 --> 00:22:05.839
Super rapid fire. I gotta take the baller to

00:22:05.839 --> 00:22:10.940
eat. So rapid me up. All right. On your laptop,

00:22:11.019 --> 00:22:13.519
whether this is personal work, are you a mouse

00:22:13.519 --> 00:22:17.980
guy or a finger pad guy? Whatever you call that

00:22:17.980 --> 00:22:23.059
thing. Finger pad. Finger pad guy. How? How do

00:22:23.059 --> 00:22:25.140
I use my finger on a finger pad on the laptop?

00:22:25.599 --> 00:22:30.900
No, how do you? I cannot stand not having a mouse.

00:22:31.559 --> 00:22:33.200
Oh, you need to have a mount. What if you're

00:22:33.200 --> 00:22:35.720
what if you're using it as an actual laptop?

00:22:35.900 --> 00:22:38.240
You're using it in your lap like on the couch.

00:22:38.500 --> 00:22:42.400
You have a mouse Yeah, then I put my mouse on

00:22:42.400 --> 00:22:48.059
the nearest armrest or I put a book out or something

00:22:48.059 --> 00:22:51.799
Okay. Well, that's very different from what I

00:22:51.799 --> 00:22:54.039
do. I just put it in my lap and use the always

00:22:54.039 --> 00:22:55.700
gonna have a pillow there You don't want that

00:22:55.700 --> 00:22:59.119
radiation so close to your Important parts, but

00:22:59.119 --> 00:23:01.759
yeah, I don't use a mouse on I use a mouse when

00:23:01.759 --> 00:23:10.799
it's sitting on a desk Jim Yes, I know you're

00:23:10.799 --> 00:23:16.079
well past this But whenever was little did she

00:23:16.079 --> 00:23:21.660
Say dad or daddy to preface every question which

00:23:21.660 --> 00:23:26.250
then forced you to say yes Yes, and then they

00:23:26.250 --> 00:23:29.170
ask the question, but they won't just say Why

00:23:29.170 --> 00:23:31.450
is this guy blue or can I play with this or can

00:23:31.450 --> 00:23:35.150
you get me some some apple juice? It's always

00:23:35.150 --> 00:23:38.710
Dad dad first. Did you go through that? Yeah.

00:23:38.730 --> 00:23:41.930
Oh, absolutely. Yeah And sometimes she would

00:23:41.930 --> 00:23:44.269
say dad and I'll say yes and she'd say can I

00:23:44.269 --> 00:23:50.309
ask you a question? Mal is the fewest thing in

00:23:50.309 --> 00:23:52.190
the history of cute. I wish we still did that,

00:23:52.250 --> 00:23:54.190
but at the time it was kind of, it could be frustrating

00:23:54.190 --> 00:23:57.769
sometimes. But man, you gotta relish those times

00:23:57.769 --> 00:24:00.130
while you have them, because it's funny to think

00:24:00.130 --> 00:24:02.250
back on now. But yeah, she's definitely done

00:24:02.250 --> 00:24:06.589
that. Speaking of being a girl dad, what is it

00:24:06.589 --> 00:24:11.430
like now, April 2025, does Ever like you to be

00:24:11.430 --> 00:24:14.490
involved? Does she want to go places with you?

00:24:14.490 --> 00:24:16.210
Does she want to tell you about what's happening?

00:24:16.959 --> 00:24:19.400
Or does she want you to just leave her the hell

00:24:19.400 --> 00:24:26.259
alone? If I didn't pry things out of her she

00:24:26.259 --> 00:24:27.640
probably would want me to leave her the hell

00:24:27.640 --> 00:24:30.220
alone, but sometimes she voluntarily gives up

00:24:30.220 --> 00:24:33.140
information about her day But it is a lot of

00:24:33.140 --> 00:24:35.160
you know jaws of life to get any kind of answer

00:24:35.160 --> 00:24:38.000
out of there You know because but who likes being

00:24:38.000 --> 00:24:40.440
asked another day. You know when Kelly says how

00:24:40.440 --> 00:24:42.740
was your day? I don't go through a list of every

00:24:42.740 --> 00:24:44.160
single thing that happened. You know I just say

00:24:44.160 --> 00:24:47.190
it was good or bad So I can understand why everyone

00:24:47.190 --> 00:24:49.470
would get frustrated getting asked the same question

00:24:49.470 --> 00:24:52.269
every day. So You got to ask more open -ended

00:24:52.269 --> 00:24:54.509
ones, you know, you know that as a podcast host

00:24:54.509 --> 00:24:57.829
Yes, you just yes or no, it's gonna be a yes

00:24:57.829 --> 00:25:01.009
or no. So but yeah, it's kind of it's yes She

00:25:01.009 --> 00:25:03.549
ages and definitely gets tougher to get information

00:25:03.549 --> 00:25:07.410
out of her How would you rate your? satisfaction

00:25:07.410 --> 00:25:13.849
level with Bruce Pearl post Final Four and let

00:25:13.849 --> 00:25:17.660
me kind of Paint some color or I remember the

00:25:17.660 --> 00:25:21.220
2015 Cubs, for example, and we lost to the Mets

00:25:21.220 --> 00:25:27.059
in the NLCS and I was a couple hours later. I

00:25:27.059 --> 00:25:29.299
was alright because it was so thrilling to see

00:25:29.299 --> 00:25:34.079
them get that far and You saw the team. I know

00:25:34.079 --> 00:25:36.599
college basketball is different, but I thought

00:25:36.599 --> 00:25:39.660
man We're gonna be right back here next year

00:25:39.660 --> 00:25:41.819
But how do you feel? I don't want to say like

00:25:41.819 --> 00:25:44.160
how was the game? Obviously it didn't work out

00:25:44.160 --> 00:25:46.569
well, but How do you like Bruce Pearl Auburn

00:25:46.569 --> 00:25:50.509
basketball or your thoughts? Oh, I'm I'm thrilled

00:25:50.509 --> 00:25:52.869
with him and with the progression. I've always

00:25:52.869 --> 00:25:55.809
been a basketball fan. I know that's easy for

00:25:55.809 --> 00:25:57.710
people to say when their teams good, but I really

00:25:57.710 --> 00:25:59.930
have always enjoyed college basketball on Auburn

00:25:59.930 --> 00:26:02.829
basketball, even when they were. In their darkest

00:26:02.829 --> 00:26:05.750
of days, so I think they should have built him

00:26:05.750 --> 00:26:07.769
a statue after they made the first Final Four.

00:26:07.869 --> 00:26:10.369
I mean, Auburn traditionally historically is

00:26:10.369 --> 00:26:13.970
the second worst program in history of the SEC.

00:26:14.299 --> 00:26:17.400
in front of maybe only Mississippi State. And,

00:26:17.400 --> 00:26:19.900
you know, to make two final fours now in the

00:26:19.900 --> 00:26:22.279
past six years is just, it's amazing. And he

00:26:22.279 --> 00:26:25.779
did it this year and both years with rosters

00:26:25.779 --> 00:26:28.940
that are made up of, and you as an Alabama football

00:26:28.940 --> 00:26:31.920
fan know, stars make a big difference. And this

00:26:31.920 --> 00:26:34.380
roster was just, there was no four star players

00:26:34.380 --> 00:26:37.480
on this roster. It was all guys that were unranked

00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:40.079
and guys that had played in division two and

00:26:40.079 --> 00:26:42.680
in AIA. It's just crazy what he was able to do

00:26:42.680 --> 00:26:45.319
with the guys that he got. on the team, and so

00:26:45.319 --> 00:26:47.180
he's just a phenomenal coach. I think he's one

00:26:47.180 --> 00:26:49.940
of the best coaches in the history of basketball.

00:26:50.319 --> 00:26:54.740
I wouldn't be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed

00:26:54.740 --> 00:26:59.299
when we lost last night, but for me, the champion

00:26:59.299 --> 00:27:01.460
in basketball is always going to be the champion,

00:27:01.920 --> 00:27:04.140
but just to make it to the Final Four is a big,

00:27:04.140 --> 00:27:06.279
big deal, almost as big as the championship,

00:27:06.460 --> 00:27:09.440
because it's a single -elimination tournament,

00:27:09.440 --> 00:27:11.579
you know, and anything can happen on any day.

00:27:12.470 --> 00:27:15.109
There's another super long answer here for question,

00:27:15.109 --> 00:27:17.230
but I love me some Bruce Pearl. I hope he stays

00:27:17.230 --> 00:27:20.670
until he's 100 years old He's a great coach.

00:27:21.049 --> 00:27:24.130
I love speaking of old guy. I love seeing Patino

00:27:24.130 --> 00:27:27.690
back in the tournament maybe people have different

00:27:27.690 --> 00:27:30.250
thoughts on him, but All right. We got to wrap

00:27:30.250 --> 00:27:35.049
up Jim. I want to throw in a Real garbage time

00:27:35.049 --> 00:27:38.329
question. I mean folks if you're driving and

00:27:38.329 --> 00:27:42.759
you got your kids in the car Just pause it um

00:27:42.759 --> 00:27:44.400
wait till you drop them off because i'm gonna

00:27:44.400 --> 00:27:48.460
i'm gonna reward the dantime listeners who actually

00:27:48.460 --> 00:27:53.140
make it 54 minutes into an episode deep into

00:27:53.140 --> 00:27:56.359
part two they're they're they listen to everything

00:27:56.359 --> 00:27:58.599
and they love it and they're so i'm gonna let

00:27:58.599 --> 00:28:03.099
you guys have it here jim how what are your thoughts

00:28:03.099 --> 00:28:07.599
as we're starting to approach that alabama swamp

00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:11.880
ass season uh in a few weeks I mean we're it's

00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:15.039
already yesterday was like 80 With the heat index

00:28:15.039 --> 00:28:18.039
87 or something. How do you prepare yourself

00:28:18.039 --> 00:28:23.200
for? for just that Man, I before I leave the

00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:28.220
house This it's double check. Yeah Yeah, well

00:28:28.220 --> 00:28:32.099
in first year the stock up on tp Uh, make sure

00:28:32.099 --> 00:28:34.619
you got plenty of loofahs bought or you get your

00:28:34.619 --> 00:28:37.740
your heartiest of hearty, uh, you know body wash

00:28:38.740 --> 00:28:41.539
And just be prepared for that one tiny drip of

00:28:41.539 --> 00:28:43.819
sweat that starts at the base of your neck and

00:28:43.819 --> 00:28:48.680
works all the way down to the top of the crack

00:28:48.680 --> 00:28:55.019
and just slowly slides down there. And just double

00:28:55.019 --> 00:28:58.640
check. Don't think one or two or three, like

00:28:58.640 --> 00:29:02.680
a tootsie roll, one swipe is enough. Go back

00:29:02.680 --> 00:29:07.630
in there and make sure. If you got room in your

00:29:07.630 --> 00:29:10.170
console and your glove box for some baby wipes

00:29:10.170 --> 00:29:13.049
or some flexible wipes put them in there Um,

00:29:13.049 --> 00:29:14.690
there's no way this is you're gonna keep us in

00:29:14.690 --> 00:29:19.430
the podcast. I hope man. I hope you got all themselves

00:29:19.430 --> 00:29:22.809
Jim do you ever so the damn dime was brought

00:29:22.809 --> 00:29:28.309
to you by dude wipes Do you ever just you're

00:29:28.309 --> 00:29:31.170
pulled up to that raceway or in your case maybe

00:29:31.170 --> 00:29:35.049
hampton in and You've got the wipes in the car.

00:29:35.049 --> 00:29:37.589
Do you? Pull three or four and just tuck them

00:29:37.589 --> 00:29:40.069
into the pocket So no one knows what you know

00:29:40.069 --> 00:29:41.690
because they're wet then you'll have no then

00:29:41.690 --> 00:29:44.349
you'll have a big old wet spot You keep a pack.

00:29:44.470 --> 00:29:46.210
You know, they have to go packs at grocery stores

00:29:46.210 --> 00:29:48.170
So you can they're slim enough that I can fit

00:29:48.170 --> 00:29:50.710
in your back pocket. Nobody's none. None's the

00:29:50.710 --> 00:29:53.690
wiser Because you're out there you're calling

00:29:53.690 --> 00:29:56.769
on customers. They don't need they need the freshest

00:29:56.769 --> 00:30:00.009
version Of gem that they possibly get and they

00:30:00.009 --> 00:30:02.529
just quite frankly they deserve it. I mean they're

00:30:02.529 --> 00:30:05.220
giving you their business The least you can do

00:30:05.220 --> 00:30:11.099
is is be dry and presentable. Yeah, exactly.

00:30:12.400 --> 00:30:16.500
Well, on that note and hygienic. Absolutely.

00:30:17.680 --> 00:30:21.079
Well, all good things must come to an end. And

00:30:21.079 --> 00:30:24.519
so it goes here. Probably the sixth or seventh

00:30:24.519 --> 00:30:29.440
