    I might also add that I think there's a little bit of Jonas from 2:22 in how Velocipastor looks.

    Overall I think this movie was the right amount of winking, especially in comparison to things that tried to force it like Birdemic 2, The Neighbors, or any Sharknado after the second one. I'd put this more in the vein of Black Dynamite where it plays into the tropes of so-bad-they're-good movies as that had done with Blacksploitation. Hearing that the sequel will have a couple million dollar budget has me concerned it will follow the same path as Birdemic 2 where it tried catching lightning twice, but leaned so hard into the hokiness that made people enjoy the first that it toppled over.

    As for the discussion of sauna beds, all I can say is be careful in using them and having someone there to check on you in case you fall asleep in one, because you will not like what you look like once you get out after you've been wrapped in one for a couple hours:

      Reveal hidden contents

    This was my exact thought! I kept saying, "He looks like a poor man's Michael C. Hall!

    I know this is not the category, but I feel like I have a Questions and Omissions. Okay. I am going to admit what could be a big problem, and I will get shamed for this, but I think I will still hold my head high. I did not watch this movie. There are a lot of the movies I have not watched, MANY, and it has not been a problem so far. I am in the backlog, and am sadly going to catchup not too far from now. So, for this little movie, that I have no words for, except questions are these:  Question - What was the plot of this movie? Is there a dinosaur? Does he turn into a dinosaur? Is it a werewolf situation? Also, how did he become someone that can, I assume, turn into a dinosaur? Is it like The Hulk when he is angry? Omission - The plot of the movie being discussed. I listened to the podcast twice thinking that somehow I missed something, similar to how they will the movie, and nope. Here is what I know, or what I THINK I know. There is this man who is attending seminary to be a priest. Maybe at some point China is involved? He likes to eat people, I hope just bad guys. I am sure there is a girl involved because I thought there was a very after sex conversation that had me holding my mouth open in horror and hand just about covering and not blinking. Honestly because I was horrified, but if sounded like she was describing the way I feel like the true mommy porn sex scenes should go in those times when you actually have never had it before, or you are married. Not sure how it ends. A girl explodes? If anyone can give me an idea of what it is about, it can even be a quick bulleted list. I just think, I cannot force my eyeballs to watch this nightmare horror show.

    Here is also what I do know. I am very afraid that June is going to get electrocuted, and that I can never unhear that and will always worry. June, I love the doctor Danielle Jones aka - Mama Doctor Jones on Tik Tok who is the ob-gyn. I also love the respect Paul and June have for each other and how she thanked him for handling the money, without being sarcastic. You can tell that they are in love and respect each other in every episode. Jason, My Love, I think that they do not have to go to Career Days and try to recruit nuns and priests. I believe you feel the calling and seek out more information. I do not know how all yall can say VelociPastor so normally and not laugh every time. Did anyone else see the image of the guy from Preacher the whole time, the really colorful one? I want to start that one soon. Jason, always stay you, always nice to your friends, ready to give a laugh and support those who are also on the show. And Honest. 

    Thanks for in assistance in advance!

    I'm doing the same thing, and a little further along than you, but TPBS had HAUNTED this podcast since the beginning. I've noted multiple direct or indirect references to TPBS from different guests over the years like, "...yeah, it's like this weird movie I saw as a kid I can't quite remember.. The Peanut Butter....Curse or something...nvrm.". 

    It's like some of those magic pubes got into the HDTGM studio back in 2011 and have been slowly growing and creeping over the years into their mics, coffee mugs, chairs, etc. until the movie finally has it's day.    

    Oooh, yeah... Easter Eggs to listen for now! When you said that I am thinking, have I heard that before? I bet I have and never gave it a second thought. Thank for telling me! Now I am even more excited if that is possible! Let me say this though, I pay for premium subscription, and it is worth every penny. If for nothing else, I have listened to The Jazz Singer episode at least five times, forced my mom to listen to it, and I am always up for another listen to The Room. **Edit - Thank you for the imagery of what I think of a potted plant like a fuzzy fern of hair growing with no warning and sneaking it's way up to the mic demanding attention.**

    See I never understood the hate for that movie outside of some of its campyness. Even watching it years later I can still find it fairly enjoyable, mainly due to John Ritter and the kid having a pretty good report with each other.

    Here is my issue with the movie Problem Child. It is for me and for me due to my love for a friend. I did not like the movie because I could not stand the way the child treated his family. Growing up with a very, very strict household, I found it mean and disrespectful to the point, even as a kid myself, that I got mad. Also, my best friend growing up was adopted. I found out when she came to our school in fourth grade. She told me by letting me read her diary entry about being adopted. I was so honored that she trusted me with this information. Listen, I know I am a weirdo already, and so that sounds dramatic to say I was honored, but I was a very old soul growing up with lots of emotional disorders not usually addressed at those ages. My best friend and her family were foster parents. She could not stand that movie either and would cry over it because she felt it made adopted kids look bad, and that she worried that parents would not want to adopt kids for fear they would have the same thing happen. So, I did not, and do not, like it for that reason. It hurt her, so it hurts me. When I was a senior in high school my mom came to me and said, "I wanted to let you know that __________ is adopted." Now, my friend looks identical to her parents and other family members. I told my mom that I already knew and she asked when I found out. I told her 4th grade, and she asked me why I never told her and I replied, "Because she asked me not to tell anyone."

    As a regular user of CBD oil and THC when I can, I highly recommend it. It's legal here in Canada, hopefully all of the states will follow suit soon. If I could snap my fingers Thanos-style and replace all alcohol with weed and all cigarettes and coffee with mushrooms, I would, and I'll bet the world would be a much healthier and chill place.

    I have used CBD Oil and smoked hemp. All it did was help my back pain, make me less anxious, and then extremely tired with lead to some of the best sleep of my life.

    Bless the heart of the girl who was having surgery and worried. I have had three surgeries in the past month and I look forward to the legal "high" of oxygen and then the gas. At this point with surgery I am like, eh. Let's do this. That is the only reason I am okay with dental work. I have never been worried with surgery, no matter what I have had done. I feel like, man, when they hook up that gas I am the happiest I am ever. I have never done drugs, or I have never abused legal drugs. This for me is a little bit of joy in a hard time. I also have the most amazing, poignant thoughts which is this on repeat, "Wow. I have the most amazing poignant thoughts." and that is the same thought I think over and over. Seriously though, I hope her surgeries have gone as well as mine have, and she is resting at home along with me listening to the backlog. Feel better soon!

    My dad's uncle passed away recently and he has hundreds of vinyl records. I already posted that I saw his The Jazz Singer Record and told my dad, I have to have this no matter what. I also have the original musical Fiddler record, and I am keeping that along with the original Sound of Music and other musicals! I am so excited to listen to them all!

    Yeah, I haven’t listened to most of the back catalogue of minis. The regular eps themselves took a long time to get through. 

    Speaking of the mini, I am really worried about the new dad who Paul did not talk about but responded to in two episodes ago. I am religious, so I do not mean to offend Anyone, but I have been praying for them. I do not have to know the reason.

    I have skipped around and am caught up to the current pretty good, and then stopped skipping and started at the beginning. I am secretly listening in places where I am extremely stressed and am not allowed to listen, so I listen to all of them. Just keep going. I like seeing how it has evolved too. In the end I do not mind.

    Yeah, some of us raised this point in a different thread. A lot of comedies—especially “edgy” ones—rely on gay panic or other problematic issues for laughs. That didn’t really start changing until maybe the last five years, approximately. The same goes for anything that uses “edgy” humor, which includes this podcast. I also have Stitcher and have listened to the back episodes and have thought “oof, that wouldn’t fly today” in parts (since I work in special ed, I remember Jason used to say “retarded” semi-frequently. I would just roll my eyes and acknowledge that it was a different time period).

    Having said that, they have changed with the times and a lot of those older episodes are still very funny—you just have to be ready for those moments where the comedy risks being offensive and decide whether or not it’s still worth listening to.

    One that I hope everyone forgot, and I will not quote involved someone in a mini telling people to go to a particular store and conduct themselves in a particular activity that we have seen less than a year ago. I was like, nooo.

    Depending on your tolerance level for weird demon effects, it’s totally worth watching and is only $2.00 to rent on Amazon. 

    Eh, I think I will skip this one. Question, this may sound crazy. Did I do this right? If I want to respond to someone I "quote" them?

    I did not get to see this movie, but I have to agree with something that, I believe, June said. After you see sex with a girl and a demon, would you be disappointed later? I cannot remember what the group decided, I had surgery and have been on drugs, so it is kind of a blur.

    I know this comment is way late, but I am going through the entire backlog. I always loved The Garbage Pail kids, and my parents had no problem getting me the cards, but my mom reached her limit one fateful day. Her name is Barbara and I got the card Barfin Barbara, and to say the least, she was NOT amused. She still gets upset about it. I still love it.

    I am listening to the backlog, and I just reached 2013, and while listening to an episode right after The Peanut Butter Solution I found a Correction and Omission by way of forgetting. In The Odd Life of Timothy Green E:54 - 1/21/2013, Tim Heidecker mentions The Peanut Butter Solution, which Paul says he had not heard of, and Tim proceeds to tell the basic plot. 

     

    I also have an explanation for June on how Arnold can get pregnant and a fact for a brief unaddressed question to Jason on the discussion of where the butt starts.

    "The Hugga Bunch (1985) 48min | Family, Fantasy | TV Movie 19 June 1985. A girl travels through her mirror into HuggaLand to find a way to keep her grandmother, the only one who knows how to hug, young." - IMDB

    I was four when this came out and I loved it. I thought it was fun, cute, funny, scary, and overall depressing. Even I at four knew something was afoot and odd about the villain scene. Pretty sure I still own this on Beta, as my dad will still argue, to this very day, that Beta was the wave of the future and is better than VHS. This can only be seen on YouTube.
