Hello everyone and welcome to the Every Movie Ever podcast. My name is Ben Groves.

2
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:17,600
And my name is Rob Macfarlane. Welcome to the show, a movie podcast where we ask the important

3
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:23,160
questions like why should baby never be put in the corner? Is it, is it Gremlin's rules?

4
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:25,720
What happens if she's put in the corner? Are we safe?

5
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:31,720
I hope so. Buddy, this is the censored version of the show. Swear's will be bleeped. But fear not,

6
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:37,960
dear listener, as always, the full uncensored version is available early on our Patreon for

7
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:42,840
as little as £1. Link to that is below. Below wherever you click play, you know,

8
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:47,880
it's a quid. It's a quid. How are you doing today, bud? My sadness madness is kicking me

9
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:52,520
hard in the ribs, babe. I'm getting attacked by the gray and fuzzies. That's not good at all.

10
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,880
But yeah, besides that, man, there's nothing wrong just just getting on with getting on. How about

11
00:00:55,880 --> 00:01:01,400
you? I'm OK. Good. OK. The cramp in my foot is gone. So, you know, that's pretty good.

12
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,480
That was a Patreon exclusive as well. So if you want to hear Ben get a cramp in his foot

13
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,360
while I'm trying to be vulnerable, it's only a pound a month, guys.

14
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:17,240
No, I'm OK, man. I've got lots, lots and lots on even more to do. I'm extremely tired.

15
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:22,920
I have even less time to sleep. But we move. We move. Nice. What are we doing today, Ben?

16
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:30,600
Well, today, buddy, we're doing the 80s juggernaut dirty dancing starring Patrick Swayze

17
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:35,800
and Jennifer Grey. And this week, buddy, we are answering all the hard questions about it.

18
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:41,160
Is this still relevant in 2025? If your eyes are so hungry, what will you feed them? Eyelids don't

19
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:46,200
have teeth. Soup. Oh, yeah, that's that one solved. Cross that one off. And most importantly,

20
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:51,720
this episode is a very special one because it's the start of my crazy Swayze theory trilogy

21
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:57,720
where I set out to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that one of my favourite fan theories

22
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:02,920
of all time is 100 percent a truth fact. Is the theory true, though? The answer is yes.

23
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:09,400
Let me cook. Let me cook. We chef. Let me cook. All right. So I have written the breakdown for you

24
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:13,800
this week. Oh, thanks, babe. I was wondering about the breakdown and I was like, God, I just don't

25
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:18,920
I don't have the time to write if only my best friend and pal could write it for me. I've got

26
00:02:18,920 --> 00:02:23,240
it in a tone that would make sense for, you know, as if it had come from me. That'd be great. Yeah,

27
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:27,400
it'd be great. I'm here for you, baby. So spoiler warning for those of you who are the first time

28
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:31,720
listeners, we're going to just tell you everything that happens in this film. So if you've wasted my

29
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:37,800
entire life not watching this film, but intending to maybe pause and come back. But for those of

30
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:45,240
you who have seen it before and want a quick refresher, Dirty Dancing. In the summer of 1963,

31
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:50,920
Baby Houseman arrives at the Kellermans, a Catskills resort with her family. Think American summer camp,

32
00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:57,080
but instead of a beast children being forced to climb trees, it's golf, horseshoes and a future

33
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:02,120
disgruntled Jurassic Park employee yelling into a megaphone about trying on wigs for fun. Yeah,

34
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:08,920
uh, yeah. Curious and idealistic, Baby stumbles upon the resort staff secret after hours dance party

35
00:03:08,920 --> 00:03:14,520
and helps a mysteriously full of exposition. I mean, for the first act of the film and is then

36
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:19,240
seemingly non-existent after his worth being spent. Ben, this is, this is madness. What I'm,

37
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:23,000
this is, this is the longest sentence I've ever heard. Right. Oh yeah. Grammar's not my strong

38
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:29,560
point. Baby stumbles on a fella carrying a watermelon up to the house. This is where Baby

39
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:38,200
meets Johnny Castle, the charismatic, but sadly working class dance instructor. Yeah. When Johnny's

40
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:44,040
dance part of Penny is unable to perform due to an unexpected pregnancy, Baby steps up to help.

41
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:49,880
Yeah. Johnny initially doubts her ability, but as he trains her, Baby transforms from an awkward

42
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:56,440
beginner into a cut, no, into a confident dancer developing a deep attraction to Johnny along the

43
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:01,960
way. So she should, that man is beautiful. Sean Connery, so she should, so she should.

44
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:08,840
As their bond strengthens, Baby and Johnny fall in love despite their different backgrounds. I mean,

45
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:16,120
there's so much between them. They're both white American dance interested people,

46
00:04:16,840 --> 00:04:21,960
but he is poor. So you're right. Very different. Their relationship is passionate, but faces

47
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:27,560
resistance from Baby's disapproving father who assumes Johnny is irresponsible and dangerous.

48
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:33,480
The situation worsens when Johnny is falsely accused of theft, leading to his firing from the resort.

49
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:40,840
Heartbroken, Baby stands by him, confessing her love, but Johnny feeling powerless against the

50
00:04:40,840 --> 00:04:46,600
class divide. He leaves, he's out of there. He's gone. He's Swayze. The working class has just pushed

51
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,840
him right out. He's just gone full Swayze. Yeah. That's a hip hop reference, Ben. You won't get it.

52
00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:55,720
No, I won't. Determined to not let societal barriers define them, Johnny makes an almost

53
00:04:55,720 --> 00:05:02,600
immediate dramatic return during the resort's final talent show, declaring that nobody puts Baby

54
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:09,480
in a corner. Yeah, he does. In front of the entire crowd, they perform their now iconic routine,

55
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:15,320
culminating in Baby's triumphant leap into Johnny's arms. The moment symbolises their love,

56
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:20,680
Baby's personal growth and Johnny's ability to rise above prejudice. What a hero. As the dance

57
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:27,240
floor fills with people inspired by their defiance, Baby and Johnny share a final victorious dance,

58
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:33,800
celebrating freedom, passion and self-discovery. The fact he's 25 and she's 16 never crosses

59
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:42,520
anyone's mind. Not even her doe-eyed sad dad or mute mother. Hashtag parenting, hashtag 1963,

60
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:49,400
hashtag free love for all, hashtag she'll be 18 one day. Free love for all. The 60s truly were

61
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:55,000
a different time in 1987. It really was. Johnny Castle just walking into Anne Summers asking

62
00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:05,000
where the kids section is. That's outrageous. Ben, why did you want to do this film? I've got

63
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,920
a lot to get, we've got a lot to get into. We've got so much to get into on this, right? I need

64
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:14,520
to know why you brought this madness. So A, I'm a little bit obsessed with Patrick Swayze. I think

65
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:20,680
he might be one of my favourite actors of all time. It's 90% of the reason that I've got a mullet.

66
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:28,280
It's 60% of the reason that I go to the gym. Essentially, I found a little theory online

67
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:35,560
about Dirty Dancing, Roadhouse and Point Break. I love all three of those films, grew up with them,

68
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:40,040
haven't watched them in years and thought, you know who would really get something out of Dirty

69
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:47,320
Dancing? Right, right. Rob McFarlane. Okay. Robert J. McFarlane. So my question to you is bud,

70
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:54,680
why haven't you seen this before? Right, it's a very specific reason. If Elon Musk, he was

71
00:06:54,680 --> 00:07:00,760
gonna give me free money, I'd go, what's the catch? I don't trust this person. He's everything I stand

72
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,280
against. The Dogecoin. Yeah, right. Exactly. If he came out something like that, I'd be like,

73
00:07:04,280 --> 00:07:10,520
absolutely not. If the town racist said someone was a good guy, I'd be like, they're not though,

74
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:15,400
are they? They're just also racist. In this analogy, am I Elon Musk and the town racist?

75
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,680
No, no, no, no, no, no. Because I'm telling you to watch this film. No, no, no, no, no, no.

76
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:23,560
Okay, good. It's better than that. So when I grew up, I grew up in a house with my grandmother,

77
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:29,560
my mum and my two aunts, three bedroom house. I slept in the back of the living room and I'd

78
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:34,440
come home from school and I was desperate to watch The Simpsons. But guess what? I'd walk in

79
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:41,160
and my two aunts would be there with the battered VHS copy of Dirty Dancing. Yes, buddy. Everything

80
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:47,560
else they watched was pure shit. It was pure shit. And so they were like, Dirty Dancing is our

81
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:52,440
favourite film. And I'm like, so that means it's the shittest film. And also it's always on when

82
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,720
I want to watch The Simpsons. Oh dude, I know exactly where you're coming from. You're not Elon

83
00:07:55,720 --> 00:08:01,080
Musk. You're not the town racist. My aunt's. Yeah, your family is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's

84
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:05,400
a great, that's a great little subject. So I was, I just, as I grew up, I've got limited time.

85
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,520
Yeah. I watched the films I watched and someone goes, do you want to watch Dirty Dancing? I'm

86
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:13,560
like, I'd rather slide uncooked spaghetti down my tear ducts. I resent it. That's a great way to

87
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:18,760
pass the time. I mean, I was also, I was raised by two women. Obviously my sisters, my two sisters

88
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:23,480
and my mum sort of essentially raised me. Yeah. They loved this film, which meant that I loved

89
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,400
this film because you don't have a spine. Very much enjoyed it. Yeah. No, no, no. It's just super

90
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:33,160
fun. You being serious. I'd like, peer away in around the living room as a child was essentially

91
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:37,000
how I got about my day to day life. It was incredible. With your little German dictionary.

92
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:41,320
My little German dictionary. Yeah, exactly. My brother was showing me horror films. My sisters

93
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:45,240
were showing me Dirty Dancing and weird Patrick Swayze movies. Brilliant. It was the perfect

94
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:50,200
combination for this horrible mess of a personality that I have now. It's balancing a seesaw by putting

95
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:55,480
things at the exact opposite end. Yes. That's exactly what it is. You could put things on the

96
00:08:55,480 --> 00:09:01,960
pivot. Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. Either end. Swing it as far as possible. Pendulum this bitch. Let's

97
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:11,080
see how he turned out. No spoiler. Unbalanced. Not great. Rob, give me your initial thoughts

98
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:19,080
watching Dirty Dancing for the first time in 2025. I have been a painted fool, an idiot.

99
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:26,680
DJ Khaled would lean in and congratulate me and tell me that I've played myself. Because this is

100
00:09:27,560 --> 00:09:34,200
the most pleasant place you can spend two hours. Right? Not a single person that you spend time

101
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:40,040
with in this film has any bad thoughts. Do you see what I'm saying? Even the bad guys.

102
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:45,400
Well, the thing is the bad guy, who's the guy who gets Penny, the professional female dancer pregnant,

103
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:49,800
you don't see him. He's in the film for about 15 seconds. Literally. And the 15 seconds he's in the

104
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:54,120
film, he's pretty tolerable. And then he gets the shit kicked out of him and disappears. Yeah, exactly.

105
00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:02,440
It's amazing. There's a moment where she asks her dad for $250. And he just goes,

106
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,440
that's a lot of money. She's like, I need you to trust me. I can't tell you what it's for. And

107
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:13,000
he's like, you know what? Sure. Yeah, I trust you. And then she purchases an abortion for Penny.

108
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:17,800
And it goes wrong because abortion was illegal when this was set. And she wakes up her dad in

109
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,880
the middle of the night. She goes, dad, come quick. And he just gets up. He just gets his bag. He just

110
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,400
goes with it. There's none of that normal, why, what are we doing? He's just like, no, it's my

111
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:31,640
daughter. She needs me. I'm off. Everybody is mint in this film. Everything is lovely. And it's just

112
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:40,280
a warm, beautiful place. It's camp as all hell. It's fun as all hell. And it's rocketed into the top

113
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:45,800
of my eighties movies. Oh God, I love this so much because it's legitimately a brilliant film.

114
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:50,760
I love that you had this reaction because the night before you watched this, I met you at the

115
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:55,640
Boredom Gaming Cafe in Telford. You did. And we hung out with, you know, John, Jenny, Lins.

116
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,800
But we were sitting there and I was like, Rob, I'm begging you, please watch it tonight. Cause it is

117
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:04,200
legitimately incredible. I was fresh off watching it and I was like, go and watch it, please.

118
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:11,720
It's incredible. And the hate speech that spewed out of your mouth in my direction, Ben, you tell

119
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:17,480
me to watch shit films. You do. If you like this film, it must be dog shit. That's a fact. It's

120
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:23,560
going to be awful. I'm not looking forward to doing this. I'm not in a desperate rush to do this

121
00:11:23,560 --> 00:11:33,000
at all. Hang a Billy Little Theory. You're talking about when we hung out on Sunday. And on Sunday,

122
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:40,360
I needed to edit the episode, make the reels for social and do the artwork before a job interview

123
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,760
the next day. Yeah, exactly. Okay. Nothing on. And you were like, Rob, watch Dirty Dancing.

124
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:51,880
Yeah, nothing on. So hate speech, go on. Yes. You were hate speech all over the place. And then,

125
00:11:53,480 --> 00:12:00,040
you started messaging me on the Monday and we hadn't spoken in a couple hours. And then just

126
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:04,120
out of the blue, you just started messaging me. I was busy. And I was like, so you're watching

127
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:08,920
Dirty Dancing. You're like, yeah, it's just gone on. And I was like, just text me your thoughts.

128
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:15,640
I will not respond. Okay. Right. And this is what you text me, bud. Cause in the boardroom,

129
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:20,760
you were like Patrick Swayze. He's not fit. His face is too sharp. He looks weird. You could climb

130
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:26,280
his face without ropes. That is just a fact. I want to. I would indeed. That guy's a gorgeous,

131
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:32,760
gorgeous human person. Uh, the first message you sent me was it's brilliant. Ben Patrick Swayze is

132
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:39,080
so fit. He is. Yeah. Just got to the first Motown dance sequence where everyone just communally dry

133
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,920
humps. They've got a special room for dry humping. All right. Should we go to the dry humping room?

134
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:49,240
Listen to Motown and then just grind groins together. Yeah. Also Nedry, isn't it? You know,

135
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:53,080
before he hacked Jurassic Park, he was just at a holiday resort with a megaphone. I've got a theory

136
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:57,480
on that. I've got a theory on that. We'll get to it. Awesome. I want to hear it. Let me copy paste

137
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:01,960
what I've got so far in my notes. She's called baby. It's not set in the eighties. What the

138
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:07,800
is Marengue? Yeah. Yeah. I, I, I heard they say, Oh, we're doing a Marengue. And I was like, isn't

139
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:13,240
that the barkeeper from deep space nine? Like, no, no, no. I remember the big head fella. Yeah. I

140
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:17,240
remember. Uh, and then you just started live tweeting me the entire film, which was great.

141
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:21,240
I'm just going to dig into a couple of my favorites right here. This is so clearly

142
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:27,320
hinting at kink. Lots of good girl and strength play. Yeah. It is. Keep calling everyone good

143
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,760
girl. And they're like picking her up. And she's like, yeah, I am a good girl. And I'm like,

144
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:37,000
she did the dance. She fucked it up, but he was so supportive. That one is in all caps. Yeah. I've

145
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:41,880
been nonstop smiling for like 25 minutes at this point. This has flawed writing. This is the one

146
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:46,600
that got me. And this is what made me really happy. This has flawed writing. And now we're in forced

147
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:51,000
conflict because something hasn't been properly explained to her father. It's a cheap trick for

148
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:56,920
conflict. That's as cliche as all time, but the film has so much charm that it doesn't matter.

149
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:01,720
I don't care. And I fully support this writing choice that right there. Yeah. Dirty dancing

150
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:06,280
summed up to a hundred percent. And that was it. Because so many times in the film, something will

151
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:12,840
happen and a character will go, darling, let me explain. And then the darling won't let them

152
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,000
explain. They'll walk out and then you've got to sit through an hour of film that you wouldn't have

153
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:21,960
to watch. If someone had just stood there for four seconds longer and gone, Oh, okay. That's your

154
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:26,600
sister, not your girlfriend. Wicked. Exactly. Like, and then you saved yourself so much time.

155
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:30,680
Right. And I hate that in films because I'm like, we're beyond that now. And that's not how people

156
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:35,960
work. We are. But people will say, explain yourself. They don't go, I'm fine without context.

157
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:40,760
I'll just go on with my life carrying this incredible pain. They're like, could you maybe

158
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:47,160
be, avoid the pain for me by just giving me more information. So I always hate it. But in this

159
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:53,800
instance, it leads to more film. Yes. And I'm having such a good time that I'm like, yeah, great.

160
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:58,040
Dude. I don't care. I don't care. Just give me more film. I don't care that this is just and then,

161
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,400
and then, and then, and then, and then, because everything is so charming and lovely and fun.

162
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:05,800
Right. Do you know what I mean? Right. Okay. And I got to say, it wasn't hate speech. It was,

163
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:12,120
it was, it was just my usual chat about film. All right. No, I had a lot on how to edit the episode.

164
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:16,760
It was not a job. It was your clerks three. You put your pickle on everyone's plate

165
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:23,800
and you always leave the hard stuff to me. All right. Yeah. Yeah. So, so enough of that. You

166
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:28,520
wouldn't have a good idea if it hit you in the puttanga mate. All right. Quoting Swayze is

167
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:33,160
literally just tickled my nips. You have no idea. That was good. That made me, that made me good.

168
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:37,160
But you're right. There were a couple of things that shocked me whilst watching it. Yeah. I always

169
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:44,360
in order. Okay. You read one. She's called baby. That's her name. Yes. Now, all I knew about this

170
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:49,960
film before watching it was that it was set in the eighties. Okay. It's not, but that's fine.

171
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:57,240
At a certain point, Patrick Swayze broke up a fight. Okay. Where a woman was in physical distress.

172
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:02,120
Right. And he pulled a guy off her and went, no one puts baby in a corner. I think you've mixed up

173
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:07,560
roadhouse and dirty. I'm one line from dirty dances. Possibly. I've not seen that either. So,

174
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:12,280
okay. Well, you've pretty much just described what half of the film is based around. Okay. So

175
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:17,160
can you imagine my surprise when at a certain point, completely unprompted with no drama

176
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:23,240
whatsoever, Patrick Swayze walks into a perfectly functional room, points at a woman and just goes,

177
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:29,240
no one puts baby in a corner with no drama around it at all. It's a totally unnecessary line.

178
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:35,800
It is also, I genuinely love it. I get it in the film, but when you're expecting like Patrick

179
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:41,480
Swayze to be pulling some eighties biker off her going, nobody puts baby in the corner. You're

180
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:46,760
thinking of roadhouse. He's just walking in to a rec room and just being like, she shouldn't be sat

181
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:52,680
there. Yeah. You're going to be so happy with roadhouse. It's going to be unreal. I can't wait

182
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:56,920
for this trilogy. It's going to be so good. Okay. Speaking of the trilogy. Okay. The reason I wanted

183
00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:01,800
to do this to start off with, I've got fan theory, right? It's a, well, I've got a crazy Swayze

184
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,480
theory. It's originally a fan theory. You told me about this. I want you to tell the listeners.

185
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:11,000
All right. This is nonsense. So here we go. First off, huge shout out to confused breakfast podcast.

186
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:17,400
I found this theory through them, right? Right. They presented it through, I think it was like

187
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:22,280
on a Tik Tok thing in one of their episodes. And although it's pretty thin, it is a very fun

188
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:29,000
thought experiment. So my autistic ass decided to go and watch all three films involved with this

189
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:35,400
theory and prove without a shadow of a doubt that this theory is 100% a truth fact. See, what I love

190
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:39,480
is you sold me this theory and I was like, well, this is nonsense, but now I'm really happy to

191
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:45,720
find out that we're doing three whole episodes about some, another podcast's marketing materials.

192
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:51,400
No, no, no, no, no. It was a thin, it was a very thin line that they link this with. What I've done

193
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:55,960
is I've beefed it out. All right. I've beefed it out. A lot of it's nonsense, but I've beefed it

194
00:17:55,960 --> 00:18:01,160
out. All right. This is strapping for some fun. You ready? They've discovered uranium and you're

195
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:06,360
like, yeah, but I can build reactors out of this. Yeah. But Chernobyl, right. You know what I mean?

196
00:18:06,360 --> 00:18:11,880
Yeah. Let's watch it burn. So the theory is this Patrick Swayze's characters in dirty dancing,

197
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:22,040
roadhouse and point break are all the same person. Now there is circumstantial evidence slash little

198
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:27,960
nods to this theory in point break where they hint at both dirty dancing and roadhouse. So whether

199
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:34,120
this is intentional universe building or just fun little Swayze Easter eggs, right. It's irrelevant,

200
00:18:34,120 --> 00:18:40,760
mate. This theory has sparked something in me and I'm here to drag us all down with me. Okay. So

201
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:45,880
strapping, right. I went away. I watched all three films with this theory in mind and I've come up

202
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:52,280
for air drenched in Swayze. I'm sopping wet for the Swayze. It's going to be hard not to shoot ahead

203
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:58,200
and spoil this. So I'll give you what confused breakfast gave me and I'll fill in the blanks as

204
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:02,840
we go throughout the next three episodes. Okay. Okay. So this is what they gave me, right. Johnny

205
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:09,480
Castle, a charming trustworthy guy with a rough side who knows how to fight gets disillusioned

206
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,960
with the wealthy and the upper classes at Kellermans. Instead of chasing a college degree

207
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:19,640
like everyone else, he travels the country wanting to help people, practicing spirituality

208
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:24,280
and evolving his fighting skills. This is where we get into roadhouse. Okay. Yeah. It becomes one of

209
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:29,160
the best bounces in the U S but realizes his life has gone down a rough path. It doesn't want to

210
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:33,880
continue down. Didn't like who he became. So he moved to California. Now we're in point break.

211
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:40,440
Terrick. California developed a new philosophy in life after the rich people of Kellermans from

212
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:46,120
dirty dancing and even Wesley in the roadhouse. He knew two things. One, that he never wanted to

213
00:19:46,120 --> 00:19:53,160
work for the man ever again. And two, steal from the rich. Okay. So we started rubbing banks. Okay.

214
00:19:55,160 --> 00:20:00,520
The main detail that Bodie from point break is Johnny Castle from dirty dancing is when Bodie

215
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:08,920
tells Johnny that a car reminds him of a 1957 Chevy that he used to have and what car does Johnny

216
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:16,120
Castle drive in dirty dancing rub? He drives a Chevy. Yeah. He drives a 1957 Chevy. Yeah. Yes, sir.

217
00:20:16,120 --> 00:20:20,520
So that's the whole theory. Okay. Just that little link. It's like a fun little thought experiment.

218
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:26,600
It's a fun little thing. I'm all here for the fun. I'm here for the fun. Yeah. I got some points and

219
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:32,200
I do think that this is, this is nonsense. Okay. I think, I think you've hit upon something. Yeah.

220
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:39,800
The idea of connected universes outside of full sequels is not a thing that existed. And I think

221
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:45,640
it's what you said. I agree. It's just Swayze eggs. It's just, I agree. The man lays eggs. Yeah. He's

222
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:50,200
an avian and just, it's just like a little nod. Yeah. But do you know what? I'm here for it. If

223
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:56,040
you can stitch this together, all right, you are going to have all the brown points. Yeah.

224
00:20:56,040 --> 00:21:02,200
So many brown points. I'm here for the brown points. So listen, I started this and I was like,

225
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,640
that's a fun little thought experiment. And then I went away and watched dirty dancing and started

226
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:09,960
really digging into it. And I've got some points for you, bud. I've got some evidence that I'm

227
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:14,280
going to bring to the table now. Okay. Strap in for the nonsense because it's, it's coming thick

228
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:21,080
and fast. All right. Okay. Okay. All right. So I've got some thoughts here. This is going to set up

229
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:28,440
Johnny Castle getting ready to transition into a woman into James Dalton in roadhouse. Oh, okay.

230
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:35,480
Okay. So, you know, the, you know, the dance scene after baby's dad helps Lisa. Yes, I do. Yeah.

231
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:42,200
There is a, there's like a, a montage thing, right? Yes, there is. And, uh, Johnny Castle

232
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:47,960
is like, the reason people treat me like I'm nothing is because I'm nothing. Yeah. That's not

233
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:55,400
true. You're everything. Right. And then Johnny Castle is like, I've never met a person like you.

234
00:21:55,400 --> 00:22:00,440
You look at the world and you think you can make it better. Somebody's lost. You find them. Yeah.

235
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,520
Somebody's bleeding. You help them. You know what I mean? So this is all like little legs where he's

236
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:09,960
met this one person, Swayze eggs. Yep. Swayze eggs. This is the first Swayze egg. Johnny tells

237
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:15,320
baby how much she inspires him, how much good she can do. Right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Fearless.

238
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:21,560
She helps anyone that needs it. He could never do this. He's nothing. Right. But, and this is where,

239
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:27,720
this is why I love this film. Baby bites back with, I am scared and I'm scared that if I leave this

240
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:34,200
room, I'll never feel the way I do when I'm with you ever again. Now after, after raising each other

241
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:40,040
up for a little bit, hyping each other up, inspiring him to do better, Johnny does immediately.

242
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:47,880
F*** the minor, but hear me out. Hear me out. She danced real good. So what was he meant to do?

243
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:54,360
Do you know what I mean? Okay. Okay. Okay. May I? May I? Cut in buddy. Right. Okay. You may cut in.

244
00:22:54,360 --> 00:23:01,960
Yeah. Take this dance. I want to just kick against this age thing. Okay. Yeah. Because it is gross

245
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:07,800
in today's time. It's a gross thing. Like, yeah, of course in the eighties, it was less gross. And in

246
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:12,680
the time period they're depicting, it was totally normal. 1963, completely acceptable. Right. Right.

247
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:18,360
Now, what I will say for dirty dancing that is really, really rare, especially in contemporary

248
00:23:18,360 --> 00:23:23,640
cinema, we don't get this that often anymore. Yeah. There's like an honest to goodness,

249
00:23:24,360 --> 00:23:30,520
super wholesome depiction of desire. There is. Without ever getting pornographic. Yeah. You

250
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,440
a hundred percent get the intention. Yeah. You a hundred percent get the way they feel for one

251
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:39,320
another and that kind of visceral physical longing for one another. You do. Not a nipple.

252
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:43,560
There's not a tit insight. No. There doesn't need to be though. It's incredible. It's because.

253
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:50,440
There doesn't need to be. And it kind of made me realize how incredibly lazy a lot of modern

254
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:55,400
filmmaking is when it comes to depicting desire. They're like, well, the female actress will just

255
00:23:55,400 --> 00:24:02,440
get fully nude and we'll show a floppy penis. Cause you never see an erect one in cinema.

256
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:09,960
That's not true. I very recently got caught off guard on Netflix. Oh yeah. Nine songs. No.

257
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:16,520
Infinity pool with Mia Goth and one of the scars guards. Scars guards would go full tent pole,

258
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:22,040
though. They're method. Dude, it was shocking. Right. Cause I have it. I have the blue ray.

259
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:26,280
Cause you see a full one. You're like, Oh my God, dude, I've got the blue ray copy of infinity pool.

260
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:30,040
And there's a scene where Mia Goth just walks up behind the scars guard was like, he's just

261
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:33,880
done taking a piss. She just wanks him off. And at the end of it, you don't see Dick at all.

262
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:37,800
I love how casual you are about this. You just see a bit of, you know, she's just having a piss

263
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:42,200
and then she just wanks him off Tuesday. And you think I'm being casual. You should watch the film.

264
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:47,400
Mia Goth is like non-existent. The expression's gone, but like, and then you just see a bit of

265
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:53,320
cum land on some stones. Right. Wow. Wow. I showed this to someone the other day and I was like, oh,

266
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:58,760
let's watch infinity pool. I'm watching it on Netflix. It shows full erect Dick getting

267
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:03,080
wanked off and then an ejaculation scene. And I was like, I don't think I've ever seen that in cinema.

268
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:08,120
Just one moment. If you are listening on speakers, sorry, headphones, yeah, sorry.

269
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:16,600
Retroactively spoiler, I guess for infinity pool. Spiller, spiller, spiller. That's the one.

270
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:21,160
But no. So, so to bring it back to dirty dancing for a second, you don't need that in dirty

271
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:26,200
dancing. You don't need that. And, and I do feel like modern, midden cinema, modern cinema has just

272
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:32,360
gone, we'll go extreme. Yeah. And like, I've got no problem seeing that. I just feel like, is it

273
00:25:32,360 --> 00:25:37,960
artistic? Sometimes it is. It sounds like infinity pool. It is cause it's evoking a reaction. It is.

274
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:43,560
But the number of times now I see a fully nude sex scene and I'm like, this is adding nothing,

275
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:49,640
except a slightly awkward vibe to the room. Yeah. At some point it was sort of shock cinema to hold

276
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,240
attention. Right. But it's not that anymore. Whereas it's not that anymore. Cause it's the

277
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:58,440
equivalent of Marilyn Manson in 2020. You're just like, oh, please stop. You look like my nan.

278
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:04,200
Please stop putting on the eyeliner. Why is my nan in a dress wearing on stage? But that's

279
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,640
essentially it. This is where we're at. And dirty dancing does that really well. You do get the

280
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:12,360
intention. You do get the sort of intimacy that I feel a lot of films lack these days.

281
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:19,000
Next point of evidence for my crazy Swayze theory. I should have named it something easier to say.

282
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:22,520
You're going to need to learn how to say this. Yeah, I've tried. I've written it a lot. If we're

283
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:26,360
doing three episodes of this, babe, you know what I mean? Yeah. It's going to get tiresome. Right.

284
00:26:26,360 --> 00:26:33,240
Right. The scene where baby asks Johnny, have you had a lot of women? And then he turns

285
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:42,040
two to three different rich women every day into some sort of sob story. Yeah. Yeah. Does it in an

286
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:46,680
endearing way where he's like, it does, this does happen and it's happened a lot, but I've come from

287
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:50,760
call and these people are putting diamonds in my pocket and giving me money. I'm going to do it.

288
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:54,520
Obviously. Does it make me feel good? You know what I mean? And he goes into this thing about

289
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:59,160
being used by rich women who are just looking to slum it because he's a working class sort of

290
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:04,840
rugged, good looking guy and how it's having a negative effect on our Johnny boy. You know what

291
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:09,800
I mean? But she's the first woman to really care about him. And I think that's the point. Like she

292
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:14,600
genuinely shows an affection to him. Like we've just spoken about. Yeah. Yeah. Francis, which is

293
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:20,440
baby's real name, by the way, shows Castle that there are people out there that are worthy of love.

294
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:26,600
He's just got to look hard enough. And if someone as elevated as her, like as someone as upper

295
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:34,120
class as her can love this little street rat, who knows? Maybe one day she'll have a podcast with

296
00:27:34,120 --> 00:27:40,280
him. Maybe our Johnny could do the same. You know what I mean? Maybe there's a bit of a life lesson

297
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,760
in there somewhere. Are you saying that she's teaching him because I've not seen Roadhouse.

298
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:48,520
So I'm guessing. Yeah. I need you to bear these in mind when you're watching it, but if I've got a

299
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,520
summation at the end, don't you worry. I'm going to give you some leaving points to go away with

300
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:56,360
and watch Roadhouse with. Give me some homework, babe. Give me some homework. I've got some homework

301
00:27:56,360 --> 00:28:02,680
for you. My next point, my next piece of evidence, exhibit C, if you will. Right. After the career

302
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:09,320
ending news that the Pachanga is now the final dance, instead of Johnny Castle's original dance,

303
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:14,600
I did. Devastating. It was heartbreaking scene. Right. It's cinema. I was on the edge of my seat.

304
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:21,800
Tears were on the precipice. Pure Kino. Pure Kino. So they're storming away and the baby's like,

305
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,400
why don't you just fight it? Why don't you just fight for what you want? Johnny Castle will turn

306
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:31,160
around. I can't fight. I need this job for next summer. Right. If I fight back, I'll lose this

307
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:37,080
gig. And then before you know it, I'm painting houses. Right. Right. I can't lose my dance job.

308
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:41,640
Otherwise I'm a house painter. Right. Which brings up, which brings up the very relevant point that

309
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:47,720
the principles are a luxury. Yeah. Like we'd all love to be able to stick by our principles. Yeah.

310
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:52,840
The number of principles I'd love to stick by. Thousand percent. But I need to eat. Yeah.

311
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:56,920
Hundred percent. And I can't eat without this job. Yeah. Thousand percent. Right. Thousand percent.

312
00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:02,840
I would love to do this. But baby encourages Johnny to be the best that he can and follow his dreams.

313
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:09,240
To fight harder. Pay attention to this one, Rob. You ready? Right. To fight harder. That's for

314
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:14,280
Roadhouse. Okay. They need it. Is he going to fight? Is there fighting in Roadhouse? If you're

315
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:20,360
saying that she says he needs to fight harder and then in Roadhouse he has a fist fight and you're

316
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:25,800
like, theory confirmed, theory confirmed, illuminati, illuminati. I'm going to be furious with you.

317
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:30,840
I'm going to be furious, Ben. It's a very tangible link, but he does fight. He's the best fighter.

318
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:38,120
He's the hardest fighter. But Johnny Castle, he fights back. Johnny Castle, you are Sean Connery

319
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:41,720
today, aren't you? Dude, I'm really tired. Let's not focus on it because it's going to happen a

320
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,560
lot. I'm not even going to try and cover it at this point. I'm going to pick it up every time.

321
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:51,640
Yeah, sick. All right. Let's see how this theory pans out. Johnny Castle, he bites back. A baby,

322
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:56,120
he's like, yeah, I need to fight harder. I need to stand for what I believe in, for what I love.

323
00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:03,720
Seems like you need to fight harder to show your father that Johnny is her guy. And he's right.

324
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:09,000
He is right. That's a super, super valid point where she's like, she's giving him life advice.

325
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:13,640
You told your dad about me yet? Exactly. And what does he do? Does he stick around and argue with

326
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:18,520
it? No. What does baby do? Take something on board and is like, you know what? Actions are

327
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:23,480
louder than words. Yeah. I hear what you're saying. They're building each other up. They're growing.

328
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:28,600
So now, communicate. Johnny Castle, let's see where he goes next. Hey, let's see where he goes next.

329
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:35,480
Okay. Baby does what she preaches. She sings what she preaches. She acts out what she said.

330
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:41,800
She literally, she tells her parents and the hotel manager when Johnny Castle's accused of theft,

331
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:46,600
no, it couldn't have been him because I was with him last night. He was up to his nuts and guts.

332
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:51,320
And there was absolutely no way he could be out. Up to his nuts. Absolutely no way he could be out

333
00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:55,560
robbing purses. See what I mean? She was so eloquent about it as well to her doctor father

334
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:59,880
whilst eating a bread roll. Right. You should have seen it. It was sticky daddy. She was like,

335
00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:05,640
dad, you know where cervix is, right? Hated that. Hated all of it. So baby essentially ruins a family

336
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:11,240
dynamic. She upsets her father. She's the next scene is her and Johnny Castle in a room. He's like,

337
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:17,160
you were right. They proved it wasn't me. That was the thief. It was the old couple were wanted in

338
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:22,840
four states and were on the lamb from the law. And I'm like, so charming, so fun, so beautiful,

339
00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:27,560
so warm. Right. What a resolution. Anyone could have been the thief. They're like, it's the old

340
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:31,960
couple because that's funny and that's warm and that's charming. Exactly. And it's hilarious. The

341
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:36,200
fact that these two 80 year old people can barely manage to walk anywhere are on the run. Do you

342
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:40,760
know what I love about that subplot is that I got the impression because of the tone of this film,

343
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:46,200
because of the unending warmth of the tone of this film. Yeah. That old couple who were thieves.

344
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:52,040
Yeah. Even the thieves, I'm like, they're probably been married 50 years. Oh yeah. There's an endearing

345
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:57,160
story. And they got to 75. They got 75 and they're like, yeah, life's got a bit of stagnant.

346
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:02,920
And this is like their Bonnie and Clyde run. This is their Thelma and Louise. This is like a thing

347
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:08,120
that they've wanted to do for ages. And when they get caught, they're like sick. That went exactly

348
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:12,680
how you're going to do is no malice. You're going to send me to prison for the rest of my four years.

349
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:17,880
No, I'm out bitches. Right. Right. Exactly. And they're not doing that a malice. They're doing

350
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:22,920
it out of love for each other and a zest for life. I love it. A thousand percent. That was crafted

351
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:27,320
over a 4pm dinner. They saw a wallet hanging out of a bag and went bet you wouldn't. Right. Exactly.

352
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:31,720
She leaned over it, did it and they had sex for the first time in a decade. Guaranteed. And now

353
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:35,240
every time they, this film is all about. Every time they go somewhere, she's like odds on stealing

354
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:43,480
the statue. Yeah. Give you a handy if you rub that statue. A thousand percent. So anyway,

355
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:47,000
baby's done this thing. She's told her, she's told her parents, she's told this thing that the crime

356
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:51,160
has been solved, but Johnny's still been fired. He's been asked to leave quietly because you know,

357
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:55,240
now it's been fraternizing with guests. Exactly. He's been, he's been banging a guest daughter.

358
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:59,400
We all know it's the hotel owner's special guest. They're good mates. So he's been asked to leave.

359
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:04,600
Baby comes out with, so I did it for nothing. I hurt my family. I did it all for nothing.

360
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:09,240
Johnny Castle comes back. No one has ever done anything like this for me before. Beautiful.

361
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:16,440
And then Johnny, this beautiful human goes out of his way to go see baby's dad and try and make

362
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:21,640
things right. Incredible. For baby. Not for any other reason because she's, she's done what she

363
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:26,760
said she's going to do. He's going to try and make it right by her. This little street rat is trying

364
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:33,000
his hardest to be a better person and help the person that has helped him. That's all in capitals.

365
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:37,400
I need you to remember that for Roadhouse. He's helping the person that has helped him. I get

366
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:41,880
that. He doesn't correct her father and try to clear his name when he thinks it's Johnny who was

367
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,400
the guy who got Lisa knocked up and left. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All about it. He just lets

368
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:51,640
him sit in that. He focuses on causing as little damage as possible for baby because he's picking

369
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:56,840
his fights. Okay. That's another one for Roadhouse. Here's the thing. When you go, this is one for

370
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:03,320
Roadhouse. Yeah. What you're picking is links. Yeah. I can smell the tenuousness. I can smell

371
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:08,920
the thin spider webs and actually I've already written the Roadhouse episode. So this is,

372
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:12,280
it makes perfect sense to me. It must be a nightmare for you and the listeners. It is.

373
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:17,000
And I'm not sorry. Just, just to rescue the listeners for a moment. You said that one of

374
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:22,280
your favorite actors of all time was Patrick Swayze. I love him. I love him. I have only ever

375
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:29,160
really known Patrick Swayze as that guy that what was in dirty dancing. He was in a ghost. Yeah.

376
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:32,680
Which is where the hip hop reference thing comes by the way. Cause a load of rappers would go,

377
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:38,920
I'm Swayze when they say I'm leaving. Cause he's ghost. Oh, I love that. What do you know about

378
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,840
Patrick Swayze's life? Let's do the early part. Let's do this little three parter. Cause as you

379
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:48,520
go through the fictional biography of the one man that is Johnny Castle, Mr. Roadhouse and Bodie

380
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:53,000
from Point Break. Yeah. I'm going to just give you little nuggets of different chunks of Swayze's

381
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:58,120
life. What do you know about Swayze? I know, I know bits of sort of trivia that I've picked up

382
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:03,320
over the years. So I know that he was incredibly self-conscious because he had a quite an overbearing

383
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:09,800
mother. And he worked a lot to try and get over that. This is why he was always dancing,

384
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:14,920
always trying to entertain, always in impeccable shape. Gorgeous human because his self-confidence

385
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:19,800
was in the bit. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Even though he was like the eighties heartthrob.

386
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:25,560
A hundred percent. You're totally right on that. I'm going to add violent mother. So he was born

387
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:31,080
in 1952 in Houston. His mom, Patsy, who just mentioned who was, she had a very violent

388
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:36,600
upbringing and she didn't quite manage to keep it all in her generation. It spilled over as it

389
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:41,480
often does. She was a dancer, choreographer and dance instructor, but his dad was an engineering

390
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:47,480
draftsman. Okay. But he grew up as his mother's son doing dancing, figure skating, ballet, talent

391
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:54,120
shows, all this kind of stuff, which in 1960s America, you can imagine for a boy was controversial.

392
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:59,160
Great. So controversial in fact, that around the age of 12, five boys jumped him at once.

393
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:04,920
Wow. Right now you think that's interesting. Wait till you see how it got resolved. So his father,

394
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:11,720
Jesse, a one-time rodeo champion and golden gloves boxer, incredible taught him hand to hand combat

395
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:19,320
for a series of months. Yes. And then drove him to school and told the football coach to pull those

396
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:25,880
five boys out of class so they could settle this thing in the weight shack by the football field.

397
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:35,400
Except this time the football coach and his dad lined them up. Patrick Swayze beat the shit out

398
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:43,160
of them one by one. That is actually incredible. It's all in his autobiography. He absolutely tucked

399
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:49,240
them in like glass of warm milk, soft lullaby, good night. They all lay off. Can you imagine that

400
00:36:49,240 --> 00:36:56,360
in today's schools? Just as a parent, just rocking up and being like, can my son, can you just grab

401
00:36:56,360 --> 00:37:01,640
those five kids off the pitch real quick so my son can just beat the shit out of them? Yeah.

402
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:06,040
Just behind the shed. Me and you can ref what you're saying. I've got a fiver on my son. What

403
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:13,000
you're saying? So he stuck with his dancing. He went to ballet school in New York to proper finish

404
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:20,280
it until his knee exploded. Basically he had a football injury on his knee and then get this

405
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:27,560
with the weirdest. If you think that happened, bud, you have no idea. So he's got this bad,

406
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:32,200
Patrick Swayze, he's got this bad knee from a football injury. And then later, whilst he's at

407
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:37,320
ballet school, he gets an infected tooth, bad abscess in his tooth, which leads to a staph

408
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:42,280
infection that gets into his blood and settles in his knee until the point where it's one week

409
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:48,840
away from needing amputation. Imagine getting a bad tooth and then going to the dentist and then

410
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:53,320
being like, we're going to need to amputate your leg. Cause that happens to Patrick Swayze.

411
00:37:54,440 --> 00:38:02,040
That's amazing. Okay. That's nutty. So his knee shot, he can't dance. He decides to act. He gets

412
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:07,160
roles, keeps getting roles. He did a film with John Travolta and then he did a film called Red Dawn,

413
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:13,960
which also starring Jennifer Grey, also starring Jennifer Grey, but he dicked around so much. Like

414
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:18,040
he blew up a toilet with a cast member in it. And then when they came out of the toilet and

415
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:27,480
started swearing at me, blew up the two bins outside the toilet. Nonsense, which, which rightly,

416
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:33,320
Jennifer Grey is like that guy's an asshole who doesn't take it seriously. Yeah. Yeah. So then

417
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:37,880
when they both get cast in dirty dancing, firstly, he's got to overcome the fact that they don't

418
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:42,360
want to cast him cause he's got a shot knee that might explode if he doesn't brush his teeth right.

419
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:46,760
Happens to the best of us. But then also Jennifer Grey hates him. That scene in dirty dancing,

420
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:50,920
where Johnny is teaching baby to dance and there's that little montage where he like tickles her arm

421
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:56,920
and she's laughing her head off and he's fuming. Yeah. It's B-roll. That Swayze's genuinely being

422
00:38:56,920 --> 00:39:02,120
upset that he has to work with someone he didn't think was taking it seriously enough. He hates

423
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:07,960
it. Which is the criticism she'd said about him on their previous movie, red dawn. Oh, he doesn't

424
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:13,000
take things seriously. So then they get another film where it's about dancing and he's like,

425
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:18,920
Oh, my wheelhouse now. This is my roadhouse. Yeah. Exactly. You'll take this seriously.

426
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:24,920
This is my road. Right. And then, and then they famously didn't get on for, for a lot of this,

427
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:31,240
but Swayze says it helped the film. And I think it does. I think, I think it works that he is as a,

428
00:39:31,240 --> 00:39:37,160
as a person, a very professional dancer and she's an actress learning how to dance. It's incredible.

429
00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:41,880
And the way that it works, a lot of the, a lot of the dancing scenes are all B-roll. It's just,

430
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:46,760
people were filming them as they were dicking about warming up, having a giggle. There was so

431
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:50,920
much of it that was left in the film. It was crazy just cause it was like a genuine tender moment of

432
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:55,800
those guys enjoying themselves, getting warmed up to do an actual take. And the actual take was cut

433
00:39:55,800 --> 00:40:00,760
because it was shit. They were like, it doesn't feel real. What does feel real is you guys dicking

434
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:05,800
about in the dry happening to be all like goofy. Yeah, exactly. And that's honestly, it makes all

435
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:11,160
the difference. And then my final piece of evidence is the black 1957 Chevy, which we've covered

436
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:17,240
already in the thinner version of the theory, but it is, it's, it's there. Right. Fine. Okay. I look

437
00:40:17,240 --> 00:40:23,640
forward to joining some of these dots together. Oh man. This had better be rock solid. Otherwise

438
00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:29,080
I'm gonna, you wait, I'm gonna, you just wait mate. Cause I very much feel like I'm just carrying

439
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:36,520
a watermelon at this point. I'm just, right. See? I love that you love this film. I love this so

440
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:43,320
much. What surprises me about the film is firstly, it's all incredibly based on, um, the writers,

441
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:49,640
teenage summers, right? Her actual nickname. So Eleanor Bergstein was called baby exactly. And

442
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:54,760
she did meet a dance tutor who, who the Patrick spacey character is based on. Yeah. She gets this

443
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:59,480
film greenlit based on being in the right place at the right time, talking to the right people.

444
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:05,240
No clue how you would get this greenlit today. Right. Not a shot. There is no universe.

445
00:41:05,240 --> 00:41:11,400
That's what we get today. But then we say, we say it got greenlit. It got greenlit for $5 million

446
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:17,880
at a time when the average cost was 12 million. This is the Indiest of Indie films. They were not

447
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:23,080
expecting this to be big. If they thought it was a teen interest story, they were desperate for the

448
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:27,640
abortion subplot to be dropped. Cause they were like, that is good. That is absolutely red rag to

449
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:33,400
a bull in Reagan's America. Yeah. But the film drew adult audiences instead of the expected

450
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:39,800
teenagers. And then, what was it here? Word of mouth promotion. It came to number one in the U S

451
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:47,960
and in 10 days it had broken the $10 million mark, which is mental for 87. It's mental for a tiny

452
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:56,040
movie that no one gave a shit about. It's mental that that $5 million in 1987 turned into $214

453
00:41:56,040 --> 00:42:03,640
million worldwide, which if you adjust for inflation means they spent 14 million and they

454
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:12,680
made 611 million back. You see what I'm saying? Like that's nutty, right? That is a 4,300% increase.

455
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:18,920
With a film that is so heavy on segregation. You know what I mean? Segregation? There's a big

456
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:25,880
segregation. Yeah. Yeah. You know, the fact that there's a black male dancer and a black female

457
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:31,160
dancer, they only dance with each other. No, no, no, no. Oh, okay. No. So the class segregation

458
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:35,960
where like you've got the rich guests. Stop it. Stop it. Stop it. That's baby stuff. Come on.

459
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:42,920
The segregation. If this is not with us, they're not, they're the dance people. What's she doing

460
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:48,440
here? She's not part of the dance gang. That's true. That's true. I was never part of the dance

461
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:54,760
right because I, I was a goth. So I would just stand in one place and I do the, I just do the

462
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:59,880
hop, do the little pop, right? Maybe let my friends shake a little bit, you know? Exactly.

463
00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:05,480
So it's the equivalent of you carrying a watermelon into the townies secret party house.

464
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:10,600
Right. Yeah. And you trying to blend in, you know what I mean? It's like, it's, I know it's a goofy

465
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:14,440
like joke, but you can replace it with anything. You can put any sort of war in opposites here,

466
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:21,560
race, gender, class, species, ice cream, toppers, everything works. Yeah. This is like an analogy.

467
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:28,600
This very, this very much this ran so avatar could walk. Yes. That's exactly what I'm saying.

468
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:37,000
Dirty dancing. So that avatar could walk. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's that's the best way to put,

469
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:43,320
that's the episode title right there. I've got, I've got a game for us, but just before we do,

470
00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:48,120
because this is going to light the game will lighten the mood, but this is, this is the

471
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:57,960
unlike bit, which is a Bergstein talking about the subplot and how desperate the studio were to get

472
00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:02,120
rid of it. They were like, Eleanor, we'll pay you to go back into the editing room and take the

473
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:09,240
abortion out, which is ironic. Right. She's like, honestly, I'd be happy to, but if I take it out,

474
00:44:09,240 --> 00:44:13,560
the whole story collapses. There's no reason for baby to help Penny for her to dance or to fall in

475
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:18,280
love with Johnny. None of these things will happen without the abortion. So I can't do it. But the

476
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:24,680
interesting thing is that Eleanor Bergstein, the writer of dirty dancing recalled being the abortion

477
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:30,360
being important for her as a subplot, despite the movie being made in 1987, which is more than a

478
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:36,280
decade after Roe v Wade, which made abortion legal. And she said, I don't know that it will always

479
00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:43,000
be legal and very young women didn't remember a time before Roe v Wade. So I hoped this film

480
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:49,160
would help them learn not to take it for granted. I hoped they would know what it was like before.

481
00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,800
That's intense. You know,

482
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:57,000
it's a bit when you consider how well America's doing with that right now. And I think all we

483
00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:02,120
need to do is just organize some watch along to dirty dancing. I'm down for this. I am down for

484
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:07,320
organizing. Just get some Republican conventions, just screen dirty dancing outside Republican

485
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:12,760
conventions. Just get 100% 100% right. Do you want to play a game? I would love to buddy. Right. It's

486
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:18,680
the, uh, it's the what's his name? The, um, the guy, Oh, the what's his face? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

487
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:25,160
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He, um, he played Vida Bohem in to Wong Fu. Thanks for everything. Julian Neumar.

488
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:30,200
I have no idea what any of the words you just said at me. So the film, the film to Wong Fu.

489
00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:35,640
Thanks for everything. Julie Neumar. Okay. It's got Wesley Snipes and John Luguizyamo as drag queens.

490
00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:42,120
He played, uh, he played velvet Larry in powder blue and, and Picos bill in tall tail. He was in

491
00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:48,920
that jar rule video. Murder Reigns. Oh my God. What the fuck is his name? He played, um, dance

492
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:55,240
class instructor and dirty dancing Havana nights. His, his, his brother played Gork in beach babes

493
00:45:55,240 --> 00:46:05,640
from beyond. Yes. Okay. Uh, okay. Okay. Uh, is this John Travolta? No. Is it not? Joey Travolta

494
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,920
is in beach base from beyond. Who does Joey Travolta play in beach babes from beyond? He

495
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:14,040
doesn't play Gork. Well, no, cause it's, it's this guy's brother. So the, this guy's brother plays

496
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:18,840
Gork in beach base from beyond. Okay. Keep going. He plays, he played dance class instructor and

497
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:25,240
dirty dancing Havana nights. Havana nights. Okay. Uh, you've not seen powder blue where he played

498
00:46:25,240 --> 00:46:30,440
velvet Larry. No, I think I know who you're on about and the name is on the tip of my tongue.

499
00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:35,880
Okay. Okay. Not clicking for me. He played race Darnell in letters from a killer. That is from a

500
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:41,880
killer. He played Jack McLeod in three wishes. Oh my God. He appeared as himself as the player in

501
00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:48,280
the player. He was Sam Wheat in ghost. Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. Keep

502
00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:55,160
it going. He was, uh, he was, he was nomad in steel Dawn. Oh, keep it going. My dick's tingling.

503
00:46:55,160 --> 00:47:00,200
Keep it going. Okay. He was Johnny Castle in dirty dancing. Yeah, he was. Keep it going.

504
00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:09,160
He was, uh, he was James Dalton in roadhouse. Yeah. He was, uh, oh God, what was the,

505
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:12,440
he was Jim Cunningham and Donnie Darko. It's on the tip of my tongue.

506
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:20,840
It's Joey Travolta. There you go. No, it's not. It's Patrick Swayze. Obviously. Brother

507
00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:26,840
played Gork in beach base from beyond. He played a drag queen called Vida Bohem with Wesley Snipes

508
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:33,400
and John Leguiziamo Leguiziamo and he played velvet Larry in powder blue. He was in a jar rule video.

509
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:38,680
Do you know what I think he's incredible? He played unnamed dance class instructor in the

510
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:47,720
2011 spin-off of dirty dancing. I've noticed that 2004. Sorry. 2004. Okay. So we're talking about

511
00:47:47,720 --> 00:47:54,760
beach waves from beyond and his brother playing Gork, right? Don Swayze. Yeah. So Patrick Swayze

512
00:47:54,760 --> 00:48:01,000
and John Travolta did a movie together. They did. And I think it's very cute that John Travolta's

513
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:09,000
brother Patrick Swayze's brother did film co-starred in beach tapes from beyond. Yeah. That is the

514
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:15,240
cutest thing. Isn't it just, oh my God, that's the cutest thing. I love this. I love this.

515
00:48:15,240 --> 00:48:21,800
Was it the outsiders that they did together? What was the film? Joey Travolta? No, Don Swayze.

516
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:29,720
Oh, stop it. Stop it. Stop it. Stop it. Stop it. We got comment corner and I want to, I want to

517
00:48:29,720 --> 00:48:33,800
do a few. I forgot comment corner existed. To be honest, we haven't done this in ages. I know,

518
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:39,080
but it's, it's honestly the best. I love it. All right, let's do it. Where else would you get such

519
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:43,240
wisdom? And Instagram. Steven Miller's been very, Steven Miller reviews their page is brilliant.

520
00:48:43,240 --> 00:48:48,920
By the way, I love this guy. They very kind about a heretic, our episode and the movie.

521
00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:55,080
Uh, they were very excited for the Nosferatu one, but on the subject of best horror of 2024,

522
00:48:55,960 --> 00:49:03,480
Huli12 commented late night with the devil. Anyone? Ooh, right. Good shout. How did we,

523
00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:10,840
I love that film is so, so good. Yeah. Now conveniently named apathy for production commented

524
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:17,880
about the killer. One of the most boring and cliched movies ever made. So, um, pretty apathetic

525
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:29,640
about it. And, uh, apparently heretic was trash according to Dick sensei. Dick sensei. That might

526
00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:33,880
be one of the best screen names going. That's incredible. It's good. Okay. Well, I mean,

527
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:38,360
it's a fair comment. It's not for everyone, you know what I mean? But it's, it's, it's objectively

528
00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:43,480
an incredible film. So he is wrong. Uh, that was comment corner. If you want to be part of next

529
00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:47,880

533
00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:05,640
legitimately, I read them, I go, that's me. I'll reply to that when I've got time. And then it's

534
00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:09,880
just lost to the sands of time. That's good, man. I've, I've enjoyed this. I think I need to give

535
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:14,520
like a quick, a quick overhaul summary just to give everyone something to take away a bit of

536
00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:19,080
homework. A few pointers to keep in mind whilst we're watching roadhouse. Let me get my pen and

537
00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:23,960
paper out. Right. It's nonsense. Get your pen and paper. Okay. Get you, get the pigeon scribbles

538
00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:30,280
ready. You ready? Yeah. Lessons Johnny has learned that will encourage his future development into

539
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:38,760
James Dalton by Ben Groves. Age 36. Age 36 buddy. There is a three in it though. Good job you.

540
00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:45,560
He's learned to fight for what he believes is right, whether he is alone or not. He's learned

541
00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:52,200
to pick his battles. He is believing he can be what he wants and that he can be deserving of love.

542
00:50:53,080 --> 00:51:00,040
He's learned to not be as scared. He's gaining his view of what is right, what is just. He

543
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:06,280
throws away his bonus to give baby the send off that she deserves. He's no longer employed at

544
00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:13,800
Kellermans or bothered by his past to such a detrimental extent. Everyone deserves a chance

545
00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:22,280
to prove themselves. His final speech on stage. Somebody taught me there are people who are willing

546
00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:28,920
to stand up for other people no matter what it costs them. Somebody who taught me about the kind

547
00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:39,480
of person I want to be. Welcome to the birth of James Dalton. The Swayzeverse. Yeah buddy.

548
00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:46,120
What are you rating episode one of the Swayzeverse Dirty Dancing? Okay so this film I've watched

549
00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:53,320
maybe three times, four times in prep for this just because there's a lot of me getting distracted

550
00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:58,520
and just enjoying the film and then like f*** I need to make notes. Another couple minutes

551
00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:09,960
lovely. You know what I mean sorry about that. Also, f***. I'm gonna give it, I'm gonna give it

552
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:16,600
a nine. What? I'm gonna give it a nine because it's been a fat ten for most of my life. I think a lot

553
00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:22,440
of it is based on nostalgia but I know where this trilogy is gonna go and I need a little bit of

554
00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:26,280
wiggle room. Right. If I knew where it was going and I didn't need the room it would have been a

555
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:33,560
fat ten but I need the wiggle room. What on earth are you talking about? Roadhouse has got to be

556
00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:38,120
like one of my all-time favorite films. It's amazing. This is why the remake upset me so much.

557
00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:46,360
You are a man with a fork in a world of soup. Yeah. You are room temperature IQ, hard of thinking,

558
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:52,520
painted idiot. This is a fat ten. It is a fat ten but you need some room. You need some room.

559
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:58,760
But Ben you were like oh maybe it's nostalgia. I'd never seen this film before and I am widely

560
00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:04,520
regarded as one of the most cynical men that walks the earth. Yeah. I can find, do you know

561
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:08,840
how easy it is for me to look at a sunset and go it's s***. I've seen it before. Right. It'll

562
00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:13,000
happen tomorrow. Right. What's the special about you? No, no, no. What I'll do is I'll go this is

563
00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:17,160
brilliant except for that one bit of cloud. Yeah. It would have been perfect. And that one bit of

564
00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:23,560
cloud has ruined the whole thing. This is a fat ten. I'm so happy that you're getting a fat ten

565
00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:28,120
out of this. I am so happy. But my point is right is we've been doing so many fat tens. You wouldn't

566
00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:32,200
know a good film if it hit you in the Pachanga Ben. What are you talking about? This is insane.

567
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:37,400
This is like, this is an incredible movie but listen, listen. If all films are fat tens,

568
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:42,360
no film is a fat ten. Excuse me, Blink Twice was an eight. Yeah. We celebrated our eight on

569
00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:47,880
Blink Twice. Yeah. Nosferatu was a 9.9. For you. You're the one giving out fat tens everywhere.

570
00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:51,720
That's what I'm saying buddy. So don't have a go at me when I'm not giving out fat tens. I'm trying

571
00:53:51,720 --> 00:53:55,880
to learn to be a better person. I'm evolving into my Ben Dalton. Here's what's happened is you've

572
00:53:55,880 --> 00:54:01,320
gone into a field of sheep and you've gone, that's a, that's a cake, that's a cake, that's a cake,

573
00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:06,680
that's a cake. And then I've given you a slice of cake and you've gone, it's a sheep. Yeah. Moron.

574
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:12,600
Anyway, what are we doing next week? Next week's part two. Brilliant. Crazy Swayze Theory. We're

575
00:54:12,600 --> 00:54:16,840
doing Roadhouse. Can't wait for that nine. Yeah. No, Roadhouse is a 10. I'll just give you that.

576
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:21,480
It's a fat 10. I needed the room for Roadhouse man. I'm telling you. Right. Okay. It's one of

577
00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:27,000
my favourite films of all time. It's incredible. Please go and watch it in advance. Take away some

578
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:33,080
of the homework that you have and see if you can connect the dots between Johnny Castle and James

579
00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:39,640
Dalton and just see if they see if it tracks so far with you. And if not, why not? Are you mental?

580
00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:44,600
Send me an email immediately explaining why, because I need to fight you in the episode

581
00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:53,720
where you have no chance to defend yourself. But just before we wrap up the show, guys,

582
00:54:53,720 --> 00:54:57,480
if you've enjoyed this episode and you want to support the show, you can leave us a review

583
00:54:57,480 --> 00:55:02,120
and tell a friend about us because it helps us more than you know. It really does. And the way

584
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:05,800
the Instagram algorithm works, the more you interact with our content, the more people it

585
00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:10,440
shows it to. So if you want to help the show grow, drop a like, share it to your story. It doesn't

586
00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:15,720
matter if you only got two followers. The algorithm still sees it as goodness. And like we say,

587
00:55:15,720 --> 00:55:21,160
comments are always welcome. And if you want more show, more content and an extra episode as often

588
00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:25,560
as we can get to it, you can support us over on Patreon for as little as a pound a month.

589
00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:30,600
One pound a month. That's literally it. There is a bunch of stuff on there already. Guys,

590
00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:34,520
thank you so much for hanging out with us. We love and appreciate each and every one of you more

591
00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:38,440
than you will ever know. We really, really do. And to thank you for spending an hour of your week

592
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:42,360
with us, especially at the start of the week. We know a lot of you listen on a Monday. Ben's

593
00:55:42,360 --> 00:55:48,920
going to wrap up the thoughts, themes and feelings of this movie, not, not other films, no, this movie,

594
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:54,440
not roadhouse, this one dirty dancing into a little Monday motivational pep talk, which is

595
00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:59,400
nonsense because the whole film is two hours of Monday motivation, but Ben's going to sum it up

596
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:09,080
and as long as it takes me to tell you to just consume. I think we can all take a leaf out of

597
00:56:09,080 --> 00:56:16,120
baby's book here, right? If you ever find yourself bored or like hanging out with a family, you're

598
00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:22,920
like, God, my doctor dad is just, it's just not doing it for me. This isn't, I don't want to try

599
00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:28,280
on wigs for fun. Go f**k an older one. You know what I mean? Go slumming it for a bit. Cause those

600
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:34,920
pores, I'm telling you the pores, we ain't afraid it's going to break. You know what I mean? Swayze

601
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:40,280
ain't sweating it. Swayze ain't thinking, Oh no, you know, what about this? His knee nearly exploded.

602
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:45,080
He didn't give a f**k. He's like, my knee's gone. What do I need a d**k for? If I get a bad tooth,

603
00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:58,920
I might lose a leg.
