I can't believe these guys couldn't figure out that the most Candian-sounding person ever (aside from maybe Jon Dore's mother) was Canadian. OK, here's a pretty deep cut that I'm hoping someone can help me out with, because this show brought it into my head and I have no idea how I would go about finding it with Google or whatever - There was a song that sampled that Arthur Brown song, most prominently the "I BRING YOU". I'd guess it was from the early to mid '90s, but it could be older. I'd call the genre hard rock/industrial, like Ministry or KMFDM. Anybody? EDIT - I figured it out, maybe not as obscure as I was thinking. "Lunchbox" by Marylin Manson, from 1995.

Yeah, Neil's rap was great, and Scott's delight at how well he actually pulled it off made it even better. Basically the polar opposite of his reactions to poor Ramhand throughout the episode.

"Stop being like Samm Levine." "I'm skeptical...that you'll make it as an actor in New York." "Your what?" ... "Your what?" "They could be dead and loving...it! Just like Dracula!" All hail the Choctaw.

Jesus, this episode was incredible. The first two charts were great just because of Andy being a generally awesome guy (and of course Ku and Wie doing their thing), and the third chart with the Daly characters break-down might have been my favorite guest chart ever.

Oh yeah, that reminds me, the whole "send a maniac to catch a maniac" thing had to be the inspiration for the infamous Fast 6 wolf scenario, right?

Ah, yes, thanks. I was probably selectively forgetting that Dennis Rodman got to star in (at least?) two movies.

Oh yeah, about the styrofoam airbag replacement - I don't know if this was the intent, or if it was just poorly executed, but it wasn't just the inside of the car filling with styrofoam. Spartan punched through the (former) door, and then Huxley pulled it away in pieces, meaning the actual body of the car apparently turned into styrofoam.

I watched it on there last night, though I slept through large chunks of the first half. Despite all the bonkers stuff, it's kind of boring. They aired it with "story notes", basically little trivia bits throughout the show. A lot of this was stuff that Paul covered. My favorite might have been that Phoenix's hair inspired Dennis Rodman to dye his. This is kind of amazing because Phoenix said "Simon says" a lot and Rodman later starred in SIMON SEZ with JCVD. Even without the behind the scenes info, I think the timeline settles the daughter issue as was mentioned early in this thread, but it is extremely weird that they brought that up and then just dropped it. They could have had a 30-second scene at the end with him deciding to call his daughter, and just ending the movie as she picks up. By the way, despite the semi-creepiness and the fact that I haven't liked her for 15 years, Sandra Bullock was kind of adorable in this. In terms of the visual style and the tone of this script, did this remind anyone else of the Schumacher Batman movies?

Good episode. Sounded like everyone was really having a blast.

What has two thumbs and loved that bit? I am such a man. Humscalade Cantina Theme After his recent run on Doug Loves Movies and the Vancouver CBB episode, I've decided that Werner is my favorite PFT character. This episode only strengthened that opinion.

This was fantastic. Ducca + Zouks = Magic

Looking forward to reading the book and hearing Nathan on Analyze Phish. The O'Reilly clip is predictably ridiculous. The funniest part of the Faygo commercial might be that they had a black pilgrim ("See, we're totally not being racist!").

Yep! Lauren's "Gwinch, get outta heaw!" monologue was amazing.

Yeah, I had never heard of it before either until I noticed that they had Howard the Duck when I was searching for that. Not a bad option, but I'd bet they're more likely to shut down copyright-violating regular uploads for movies that they officially offer. As far as paid avenues go, my cable system (Time Warner, so this may or may not apply to all TW systems) actually has it on demand for $3 HD or $2 SD.

Having not seen this in 10-15 years, it's pretty likely that I'm mis-remembering this, but I do have a vague memory of the backstory including the west coast physically breaking off from the rest of America at the San Andreas fault.

Yeah, that caught my ear too. Probably not the way that they wanted word to get out, but I guess they could have just edited it out if they really cared.

I would have gone with "Skull & Bros" or "Run-off P". This episode was AMAZING, possibly my favorite of the year. All three guys were absolutely on fire. All the in-character "my wife" and "it's been" uses killed me. The Garry Marshall phone call took it to another level and gave me some Great Undiscovered Project flashbacks. Side note - PFT's knowledge of old Canadian TV shows is pretty incredible. I listened to the Vancouver live episode recently, and he (as Werner Herzog) did a detailed discussion about how his next project would be a film adaptation of "The Littlest Hobo" ("The Littlest Hobo: Port of Call ten Towns"). Then in this episode, he was talking about appearing on the Canadian Match Game, and he mentioned "the ghost of Bruno Gerussi", which is a name that I'd guess less than 5% of the listeners recognize.

If Gilbert Arenas' shark grotto is mentioned, I will never not laugh. Ronna knows a lot about sports! Those two are always great, fun episode all around.

What am I, POSING FOR A PHOTOGRAPH?!

I thought Man of Steel was good enough, but agree that it was too dour and it also had a lot of logic gaps (which I try to ignore with movies like this, but didn't feel like it was smart/good enough to earn the benefit of the doubt on). Great episode. Loved the Behind the Music-like look at Wie & Stard's creative process. Also loved the revelation that "Lee" is basically Howard's own Tyler Durden - An alternate persona that allows him to say/do things (I DO WHAT I WANT) that he wouldn't say/do as himself.

There is, counting from the live YouTube airing (IT'S BEEN...two weeks since that), not the podcast release (which comes anywhere from a day to a week after the live stream depending on the normal show schedule).

Good article about this company: http://www.grantland.com/story/_/id/8458773/a-look-how-ripoff-factory-called-asylum-makes-mockery-box-office My favorite part is how they started explicitly putting things in the movie descriptions like "(not to be confused with the hit Jack the Giant Slayer)".

Loved the opening chat/riffing between Scott and Brian, and Daly's character was his usual insane awesomeness. My only disappointment was that when Kevin & Bean were brought up, Scott didn't refer to them as shocking disc jockeys.

I was excited to see that Aziz was this week's guest, so it was a little disappointing that it was (I think) the shortest episode yet, but still really good.
