Episode 165.5 - Minisode 165.5

[Smigg 1488]

I'd call in, but:

 

A). I'm not calling San Diego from England, I'm not made of money

B.) I hate talking on the phone at the best of times, so one that's going to be made public is even worse for me

C) It'll end up with Paul being threatened with a powerbomb if the god damned Mortal Kombat Annihilation episode doesn't get made!

 

 

And, because of the gif, just let me indulge myself briefly...

 

E-C-W! E-C-W! E-C-W! E-C-W! E-C-W!

[Cam Bert 8145]

It's always nice to know that listener's concerns are being listened to and thought about. Thanks Paul.

 

I kinda feel obligated to call in now. Phoning from Japan can't be that much or that difficult right? Now the pressure is on to think of something to say. At least I have a week or so to think about it. Nope still too much pressure.

I think it would be awesome to have an EHL entirely consisting of usernames from the forum. Wonder what reddit would think...

9. If you could be any flavor of ice cream what ice cream flavor would you be and why?

10. Who is your favorite cartoon character and why?

11. If you could go any where in the world where would you go and why?

12. What is your dream job?

16. What is the strangest thing you’ve ever eaten?

17. What is your favorite thing about someone in your family?

1) Two Pizzas, acting as a sandwich for a rib eye steak in between

2) It started off white, but now has red bits on it from the blood

3) I'd be a giant tourtoise, because nobody suspects the tourtoise

4) Just a good old fashioned metal bucket, they hold the same amount of water, but they're sturdier than the plastic

5) Psylocke, because I saw Olivia Munn in the outfit

6) Let's just say, in Britain during the 90s, some nights, every other channel had softcore it seemed.

7) Criticising other people's grilling skills, and saying that it makes them less of a man

8) It would be whatever kind of movie "Bronson" was, and I would be played by Dame Judi Dench

9) Vanilla, straight forward, no nonsense

10) WILLIAM FUCKING MURDERFACE!!!

11) Las Vegas, because I like gambling, and there are fights to watch every other weekend, and I want to punch Carrot Top in the face

12) Retired Billionaire...

13) Recently became a morning person, now if I get up after 7, it feels weird

14) I love video games, I'm not great at them, but when one hits the right chord with me, I'm on it for months

15) I'm going to change this to "Celebrity Crushes", but Asuka from NXT, and Stephanie Beatriz are among them right now

16) Someone bet me £20 that I wouldn't eat a dog chew, so I took the fucker down

17) Buy Christmas presents, I keep notes on things my mum and my brother say during the year, and then pick them out

18) Probably my obsession with Mortal Kombat, and knowing it pretty much inside out

19) Put your hand over a bulldog's nose, it's a bit like that

20) No one, what's the point? My experience have made me who I am, so changing that would mean I'm not the same person anymore, for better or worse.

 

That started off half joking, and then became real.

I would call in but some creepy guy will call for me with the same alternative title that I posted. It saves me the effort and let's me feel creepy by association.

 

Edit: I don't think the guy stole my alternative title in case it comes across that way.

[DanEngler 5249]

Thanks, Dan!

 

Don't thank me, thank Earwolf producer Dana. She has to wade through the Explanation Hope Line every week and, if the best calls she's found have included jerk-off stories, imagine the nightmare fodder that doesn't make the cut.

 

 

This is why Paul needs you nerds to call in. That dead air isn't going to fill itself!

[paulscheer 489]

Two things (That I'm not sure about)

 

1.) Since 619PAULASK is a Google Number isn't it free if you call on Google?

2.) Wouldn't Skype be really cheap

 

Any ideas for a game segment that we can play on the mini? It would have to be something easy, is Trivia too simple?

My deepest sympathies to poor Dana for having to descend into that twisted Lovecraftian cesspit every fortnight.

I like the idea of a new game. Trivia's cool, but I'm also a huge nerd

 

You know, maybe you could dust off some old bits. A few weeks ago I was listening to some of the earlier episodes where you'd have listeners write in alternate titles and tag lines and whatnot. Now, they weren't always good, but something like that might be fun. Or maybe bring back June's Life Lessons bit, but instead of her coming up with lessons the fans can. I've always liked the idea of something positive coming from something terrible.

[joel_rosenbaum 1269]

1.) Since 619PAULASK is a Google Number isn't it free if you call on Google?

I was going to call and ask why you guys have a San Diego number.

 

These are the calls you're missing!

[Smigg 1488]

I call it "A Paultry Description"

 

Paul describes a movie (covered in HDTGM, to keep it in the universe for want of a better word), but there is a "paltry" amount of detail. And we have to guess what it is

 

So, for example

 

"A guy and his friends star in a TV show"

 

The answer would be... The Running Man.

 

I haven't really thought this one through, I thought of the name before anything else.

How about a take on Family Feud, where you ask June questions ahead of time and people call in to guess how she answered? If the listeners (as a group) can't name all of her top answers, June wins the week. For example, you'd ask "What are the scariest movie monsters?" and she would answer "Robots of any kind", "very small men", etc.

 

You could frontload as many questions as June is willing to tolerate in one sitting and then roll them out one-per-minisode. Listeners probably wouldn't be able to guess every answer, but the actual joy is hearing June's mind work.

This is the best idea I've ever heard ever

[babyoilbandit 81]

If we get to the end of Timecop without a long derail about Jean-Claude's buns and his splits then I'll turn off in disgust. Now I know someone will say how will you turn off the episode after it has already ended well I'll skip back 10 minutes then turn it off in disgust

[firsttimecallerlongtimelistenr 3590]

hope ye all have a great night and a fun day over there in the US.

I just logged this on letterboxd. Oof, what a mess.

A co-worker of mine last year went on a first date to see this movie with a guy she met.

There was no second date.

Because he liked it or because he hated it?

 

(Also, how difficult would it be to set up a HDTGM movie club. We pick a movie and time and live post as we watch it?)

He thought it was fun and she didn't understand how a movie could be so bad.

 

Not sure about the movie club, but it seems like there's got to be an easy way to do it.

Could be easy if we all have Netflix?

Ah, but not all Netflix is created equal. Canadian Netflix has a completely different library to American Netflix. I imagine CamB has an entirely different set of menus in Japan.
