Hello and welcome to Hitch in the Trailer. I'm Greg, aka Reasons to Chugs.

1:11And with me, as always, is someone I would never consider a mistake. My lovely wife Nicole. Hiya. Cheers. What an introduction. Thank you, I think. Today, we are doing something a little different. We're doing a show. It's our first series that we're going to do. Yeah, we're doing a Netflix show called Big Mistake. You ready to pop, babe? You ready, cast, babe? Let's give. All right. You want to hit us with that blurb? The IMDB blurb. Okay, Big Mistakes. Two directionless siblings are blackmailed into the world of organized crime. This series is coming out on Netflix April 9th and it is written and starring Dan Levy, which who doesn't love him? Love Dan. I'm so excited. It's written by him. We're a co-creator.

2:14Him and Rachel sent it. We've talked about it before. She was in one of the movies that we've done previously. Bottoms. Okay. Yeah. And she's on a show on YouTube right now. That was the one with football player. Yeah, Marshall Lynch. She was the teacher. Yeah. So we kind of hit a wall sometimes with the amount of movies that are coming out this time of year. There's not a lot of blockbusters coming out. The movie trailers. It's our choice is that we can go super far into the future. But then we're possibly leaving ourselves with nothing for later. Yeah, the summer. And yeah, some things that are coming out like, you know, there's trailers out for like him and master the universe. It's not coming out for like months. So it's like, why would we do it now? We kind of like to stick to stuff that's like about to come out. Yeah. And so we were like,

3:14I had sent this to Greg and I was like, we have to watch this show. It was absolutely hilarious. And I was like, why don't we just shift and do a show for once? Yeah. Why not? Why not? All right. All right. You're telling us what to do. We're the bosses here. At least in this room for this hour that we do this. I would say you're the boss. I'm like more of like assistant to the boss. Assistant to the regional manager. Exactly. So Dan Levy, I would guess please a pastor. I don't know if he's actually a pastor. He's being a pastor, but I wonder if it's actually his like, I can't figure out. Yeah. If it's real or if it's something he's pretending to do in order to, I don't know, fool people or because somehow they, it's about him and his sister. But I noticed Dan Levy always is doing stuff like very family oriental

4:19kind of like what he writes and what he stars in. And I don't know if a pastor's allowed to be gay, but they show him with a man in the trailer, but his sister doesn't know because he at one point mentioned his relationship and she's like with who and he's like Jesus. Yeah. She said what really is it with Jesus? So Dan Levy of course from Shits Creek, which was an amazing show. One of the greatest of all time. What was your favorite Shits Creek episode? That's like asking me to choose my children. True. What do you want? Do I like that? One of my, so okay. So if I was going like based on my heart and like emotional, it's when Patrick sings, you're simply the best to him. Right. And that was like him realizing like they're in a real relationship and he does such a beautiful like rendition of that song. Is that kind of singer or not?

5:20Oh yeah. He's a performer like I don't know. I mean, I wouldn't know if I would say he's a singer, but maybe like a yeah. I mean like does he put it? He doesn't put out. I'm sure he does put out music, but I don't know to what extent. And then I love, love, love the fold in the cheese bit. How the fold in the cheese part? We just watch that one the other day. Yeah. That one, that one makes me laugh. That's a good one. What do I do? I'm trying to think. I didn't watch it from tobacco like you did. I always popped in here and there. I think I like the one where they get pulled over in the truck. And the milk. The raw milk. The raw milk and Chris Elliott. He's so bad. He can't like lie to the cop and he's just terrible about that one. Anything with Roland and Johnny. His dad is so funny when he's like look at his face acting when he's like looking at him. Well, we were just talking about this the other day because

6:23I of all of the characters I identify with on that show because who doesn't watch one of these shows and go that reminds me of me or somebody. I feel like Johnny all the time. I feel like people are like he feels like he's going crazy because it's like what is wrong with everyone around you. You're explaining things constantly like when he goes over with with with his son about write-offs tax right now. He's like who are you writing it off to? He was like the tax people? That's such a good like makes you feel insane. And that's one of the I mean I don't know how we could not like this show just because of Dan Levy's like he's so talented and it's just the best like yeah and he's when he says I can't stop laughing every time I see the trailer and there's a guy that pulls up in a truck and puts a gun to him and his sister. A UPS truck.

7:23Was it UPS? That's definitely 100% a UPS truck. It doesn't say UPS on it they probably can't paint it over it but 100% as someone who drove a couple years for the UPS. What was the truck? What was it called? What Doug heifer didn't drive for? I don't remember. I the King of Queens. Yeah. It was I think it was acronyms too. It was like USP or USM or something like that. You got it. I PS. I PS. I knew it was another acronym. Accronym. Accronym. Yeah. Potato patata. Nope. One's a word. One's not. Some words I know. Some words I know. So words are tough. Yeah. But yeah the guy pulls a gun on them and she's like saying she doesn't. He's like what I'm

8:24telling you to get in the back of the truck and she's saying like well what if I told you I didn't feel comfortable with that and he like didn't care and she's like it's giving kidnapping and homicide and didn't love he is like it's giving those are your last words and it just correct me up. Now his sister in this what's her name? Taylor Ortega. She looks familiar. What did she been saying before? She does look familiar. I don't think you saw her in Kim possible to my guess. She was in the four seasons which you didn't I don't think you watched I watched that one. She's in a show called Ghosts which I think is a CBS show. Yeah. I might have seen her in the commercial. They used to have that commercial under and football all the time. She was in that jack pop movie that we love. I see it. Oh what else was it? Party down. Ah. Great underrated show. It is an underrated show and I did not watch a ton of it but it was really really funny

9:28with Adam Scott and Marino Ryan Hanson. Very very funny. Yeah that show was fun. What did they bring it back later on? Because I'm like there's no way it was on 2009 to 2023. Yeah they had a third season. We watched the first two and then they had a third I don't even know if we finished all the yeah I don't remember I feel like it was something we like it was a show time show I think which we didn't always have stars stars so way off but you know I don't know I think it it might they might have put it on like Netflix or something like that when we watched it feel like we watch it or like Paramount Plus or something. She didn't a bunch of stuff it looks like but um succession which we did not get into. We need to watch but we did not watch it. We started watching it and then we'll just you know what it's very hard to watch HBO television in front of

10:34your children. Yeah for sure. You just don't you're you're you're rolling the dice but that could happen on an HBO show. Oh I mean so you never know. Brother to brother. How many times have we been watching a show like that? Are there's like incest or something and we have to pause it five million times. Not just because the other. We kind of let the pit go just because it's like medical. Yeah well Austin our oldest used to be like we were so sure that he was going to be a doctor he was buried like he would go on his tablet and he'd watch how to do like a hip replacement surgery and stuff on his own and why? I don't know it just seems like something I never would have done. I wouldn't be like oh let me watch this hyper placement. Yeah wow. I don't think we need to get into all that. I never had plans on being a doctor. What would you have watched it on?

11:36Good point. I don't know TLC. Yeah TLC did used to be very um they used to have like surgery shows like that. They used to love they used to have um uh they used to have a wedding story and now that I know that's not educational but they also used to have a baby story and it was like people I used to love to watch that when I was younger I always was uh the four brides one. Four weddings? Yes I was TLC we loved that. I'm right I told you I was on that show. Yeah. I uh you were bartender to wedding. Bartender to a wedding that was on that show. Yeah. I made the signature drink episode. It is and if you're like in the background somewhere like making faces at people like that would make sense. No I I made the drinks beforehand for the show. But you actually bartend the event? No. No I was a manager at the time so they had me make all the signature drinks. I came up with the signature drink. I was just seeing how it happened in the back just like dancing through. Yeah.

12:44No we love that show and we used it a lot. We used the four weddings structure to rate other people's weddings. Oh right right right right right and give them scores based on like overall appearance and dress and food and venue. It's kind of rude. Why is it rude? I don't know. We didn't be like oh low score Jane. You're wedding was I would say could have been better. We did not rip anybody apart but we did like enjoy that game and I think everyone should play that game. So then the other person who you love in this is the mom. Lori Metcans is one of my favorite favorite favorite I'd say TV actresses all the time. She was the on on Roseanne and Jackie. Yeah Jackie. That's the one. I matched. Yeah she was great. Her comedic time she is so funny but she's also such a good dramatic actress. And it wasn't TV it was a movie but Lady Bird. Oh right. Oh my god. I think

13:52she won the Oscar for that. Let me see. I know she was nominated for Shore and I just she is just one of the funniest people I feel like. Yeah she's hilarious. Whatever. When she shows up in the trailer with the face paint on I don't know what was going on. I know she was at a kiss. Yeah it's concert. See there. Where are the awards? Probably closer to the bottom. I feel like something to like pop out. Yeah I would have. I don't think I I didn't watch that whole movie with you either. I didn't know if you watched any of it. It's like something I probably watched on my own. I don't remember popping in. Usually they have like an awards section. Yeah. Or you could use this crazy thing. It's called Google. You know I really do love relying on IMDB

14:57because I feel like IMDB gives me everything that I need. IMDB if you want to sponsor us. Yeah sure that one. Dream come true. There you go awards. She was nominated. Okay so she didn't win but she she won a Boston Society of Film Critics Award for that BAFTA. You're listening to a podcast right now. Driving, working out, walking the dog.

16:58Hackman? No. Gene Smart and I love, love, love her. She's another one that I asked for. She's so funny. I don't really like that term at all. That's super rude. Explore as a dark mentorship that forms between Deborah Vance, a legendary Las Vegas comedian and an entitled outcast 25 year old. Okay. So maybe to you. See if I hear, I thought that show was about like hacking the internet. I don't know. That's immediately what I would do. Sometimes you take things a little too literally. I mean, I guess it's hack comedians, but I get that. But just the name of it would, I would immediately go to hacking like computer nerds. So it wouldn't be so good. She did win for, wow. She won the prime time Emmy in 1992, 1993, and 1994 and Roseanne

18:02for being Jackie. She really was the best. One of the funniest, but everything that she's in. I just feel like she's so good. I think it's really funny. She's like anything you can say to your sister, you can say in front of all of us. He goes in all the Facebook mom. No, he said in all the women in this town or old ladies in this town. She was like, it is a very, what does she say? A very like tight neck community. Facebook community. Isn't that such an old lady thing, though, to be in a... Yeah, I'm in a bunch of them. I still follow and will always follow and will never give up all about Madeline, just my hometown and some of my favorite things. Plum free posts? Plum posts for Plum folks is my new one for my current town. Love that one. Fantastic. Playing house, she was only on one episode,

19:07but do you remember how much we loved that show? Yeah, that was a good show. That was such a good show when I can't believe that they canceled that. Maybe because it was on the USA. That was the girl from... Yes. What am I gonna say? Oh, I don't know, but I thought it. But I feel like we're here. So I don't really remember the... The girl from... The blonde to the brunette. The blonde. Okay. From... From... The...Occapela movie. Greg, that's on her. Oh, okay. This one? Oh yeah, no, that's on her. You thought that she was from... Yeah, what's the girl that's like the head of... They look similar. Yeah, but they're probably about like 20 years apart. Really? And a camp was her name from... What's the name of the movie? Oh, I slurred car. I...Occapela, the Bella's, the... Yeah. Freaking... Oh, man.

20:16Anna Kendrick. Yep. Guys, this is embarrassing. I know. I know nothing. I know dad knows nothing. That is true. I... Yeah, but usually I know everything and here I am not nothing. It's perfect. I don't forget that. You love that movie. I do. But I can't believe you got those two confused Yankees. Well, if I'm good at something, it's confusing actresses. It's just getting confused in general. True dad, true dad. So, do you think this show... Do you think they're gonna put all eight episodes out or is it gonna be a one-a-week thing? That would make me so sad if it's not all at once because I love to binge. Seems like a binge. I love to binge. The only thing that I will say that I am kind of excited about, which I normally am not, but I do like that it's called a series and not a limited series. So, that way like... There'll be a season two. If we can get... I feel like

21:19if we can get more from Dan Levy, it's a win. He's not somebody that I'm like, oh, I just want you to wrap this up in a bow and that's all I want to see of it. Now, I feel like I feel like I feel the way about like Nicole Kidman in a series. Nicole Kidman, if you're in a series, wrap it up in a bow. Yeah. That's all I need. I just need one limited series for you. Oh, is that one series that we the first season was really good and then they brought it back and we're like... With her? Five perfect strangers or nine perfect strangers? Nine perfect strangers. That's pretty good. You got there. Just five plus four. Yeah, there you go. Not with Balkybal talking us. You're true. Why are we bringing him up again? Bronson Pinchot should never be brought up again. You can't say perfect strangers and not think about it. Ah, okay. I didn't. I did not put those two together. Oh, yeah. That was bad. I don't think why we should. They should have brought it on season two, that I would have asked. Him and cousin Larry. Oh, man. That would have worked. That would be one I would do. But yeah, I feel like I'll take all the... I like the idea of it

22:22possibly like continuing to go. Now, Dan Levy, have you ever seen a movie or is he always just shows? He made a movie for... Oh, was it a series actually? No, I'm thinking about it. I don't know. I don't know. I know he's been in something and I can't think of it, but I know he has. Our internet's being really in line today. It's like making me move so I apologize. I don't know. Something I feel like is always my fault. I picked the internet. What should I pick? What's always my fault? Nothing. My love. I literally said. I'm not falling in that trap. I'm not stupid. We even are almost 10 years. I'm not going to walk into that. No, we've married almost nine years. Nine is not close to 10. It's a whole year different. You know, a lot has happened this past year. We never know what could happen the next year. The big brunch was a show. I loved that he did.

23:27Love, love, love. It was on HBO and it was a reality cooking series and I loved it. Looks like all series. It was on Frost. He was in Before Hall. Good grief. Was this a show or was this a movie? Because I did watch. He wanted to mention. On there it would say episodes that he was in. This was did it say episodes? What did it say? How long is it? No, it's a movie. I truly feel like I've never been on the internet today. This is like killing me. It's like we have to dial up. Okay. Hour for you. Okay, yeah. This was one. I think he wrote, yep, wrote and directed. He's so talented. Yeah, he's very talented. When his husband unexpectedly dies, Mark's world shatters,

24:28sending him and his two best friends on a soul-searching trip to Paris that reveals some hard truths that each need to face. He found out. Oh, okay. I guess I'm not going to tell you. No, go ahead. Well, you're not talking to me. You're talking to the audience. He found out his husband was cheating on him. Spoiler alert. You just stop. If you don't like spoilers, you shouldn't listen to our podcast. Can't tell people not to listen? If it's going to make a mad, I don't want to make anybody upset. You know, I do enough of that around my own home. I don't need to do that in everybody else's homes. The shorter Dan Levy's hair gets, the more he looks like his father. They're not complaining about. Very handsome. Very handsome. What's his eyebrows start to grow on out of the bush, then you know, love the brows. Dude, his dad's eyebrows are out of control. It's like two caterpillars. It's chilling. I love them. So he's, well, I mean, he's done a movie here and there,

25:29but it does feel more like series. You know what? Maybe I feel like if you're such a good writer, maybe you just want to write more and more and write into these characters. It's tough if it didn't end like an hour and a half to hours. Yeah. That's why I think we're seeing more and more of like better series because people don't want to keep it to a short movie. Well, remember when it used to be like movie actors, TV actors, and like, oh, if a movie actor did a TV show, it was like a career killer. It was like, oh, they're on their way out. They're really hard up. Yeah. Or it used to be that way if you saw them in a commercial. Yeah. No, except overseas. They were all Brad Pitt's. We're always doing commercials in Japan because they were paying them like $40 million dollars. I was going to say they're probably paying a lot more overseas. Oh, yeah. So we're doing like, there's probably a Herpes commercial somewhere with him like,

26:30who's the one that on Friends, Joey, Triviani did like, I think it was like men's lipstick or something was like in Japan or China. It's like really funny. Yeah, it just seemed like he's done a lot of more TV acting. More TV than that. Well, that's how his dad started too. He started on SC TV, I think. It could be making that up, but I'm pretty sure. I think you're correct. It's because I think, yeah, Second City television sketch comedy and it was in Canada. And which one was there too? R.I.P. John Candy. Well, yeah, but Catherine. Oh, here. Yeah. Yeah, that was a tough one. There's a lot of people this year. Yeah. Yeah, they were just talking to Oscars tonight. They were talking about I was into one podcast. Yeah, how they would do because usually the the last person is always like the most famous. Famous, but you have

27:35Robert DuVall. You have. We're our briner. We're our briner. That's the saddest of them all, I think. Jean Ackman. Catherine O'Hara. Catherine O'Hara and Robert Redd. And Diane Keaton. Wow, Diane Keaton too. Robert Redd for dead this year. Yeah. So that's kind of crazy. People were speculating that they'll do like a throughout the show do one person each because. So like, focus on how big that's yeah, that's like me because we sad. I don't I don't love the Oscars. I don't love any award show. I which is crazy because we love movies and TV so much, but I think there's something so fake pompous about it. And like and not saying that there aren't again, there are so many people that deserve to be awarded for a performance for, you know, but I feel like you and I maybe because we're low brow. We're low brow. We don't always agree on

28:39the type of movies that are nominated for an Oscar. I'm like, who's watching these and who's picking these and who's saying like two of the movies that are in the running for best picture centers and can you give me the best picture right now? Who's going to win? No, who's nominated? Can you? Well, I know it's centers. One battle after another. F1, hamnet. Yeah, I don't know any of the secret agent. I see that one. How is that? It was French. Oh, my god. Yeah, Marty Supreme. We watched Pagonia. Green dreams. I like Pagonia. F1, sinners, Frankenstein, which was, I'm shocked because it was a Netflix movie. Yeah, hamnet, one battle after another and sentimental value. So we've seen Frankenstein, sinners, F1, one battle after another, Pagonia. That's it. That's it. But that's pretty good for us. Yeah. I feel like we tend to like not. But it seems like they have more of the popular movies on there.

29:42I'd like to say, and we can watch hamnet. So that's good. We can watch that one. I don't think you can watch that. Yeah. Train, uh, train dreams is, look who wrote it. Who? You see that? The first person there. Marissoms. Oh, uh, the Chino Max wife. What? Yeah, I just saw that today. Yeah. Here comes the money. It's the sweet little world who's Chino Max. Chino Max is the son of Finsic Man, one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. What did we say? Well, he was one of the craziest. He would jump off anything. He was like one of the just wanted to make his daddy happy. I know. Want to make him proud. And then he didn't even get the company. I'm giving it to my son-in-law. Yeah. Triple H. The amount that I know about wrestling, I just like to say, is both a source of pride in my household and an embarrassment to the outside world for me. And I will say this, I did watch wrestling when I was younger. My sister and I used

30:46to watch our dad. You're listening to a podcast right now, driving, working out, walking the dog. If you're in a podcast, chances are you have something to say too.

I believe in my heart of arts, if he does not become a wrestler, he will be involved in it somehow. He's constantly making matches all day. He is so impressive in which he always has been with his being able to hear something and know what it is right away. Song, the person singing, whoever it is, but he can tell by like the first

32:55note of a game song. Any wrestlers walk up music, he knows exactly who it is. To the point that Greg will be wrong. Yeah. And have probably seen this episode of Raw from 1996, 20 times, and Sawyer will get it right. That is true. He's very impressive like that. Trade back to the Oscars. This is an Netflix movie too, so we can watch this. I don't love Western. Yeah, you're not a Western. Although, when we watched the, what was it, the Jesse James one? There are certain ones I love. I do love, I do love, what should we call it, but with Kurt Russell and, and, oh, didn't want to do that. Kurt Russell, Val Kilmer, it's like the ultimate. Yeah. Western. Greg! I know what movie you're talking about, but I couldn't tell you the name of it. No. It's, I'm thinking Maverick, Maverick

33:59and Paul. No, it's wider. Why an Arab? That one I like. That one I can do. Unforgiven with that. There was too many good people in it for me to not like it. I feel like, and I love Kurt Russell. Kurt Russell and Goldie Han are my real parents. I can convince. You wish. Damned. Damned straight, I wish. Unforgiven with Clint Eastwood and Morgan Freeman is the best one's ever. Morgan Freeman's the one? Yeah. I've never seen it, but I feel like it's one that I should because it's like, you know, probably a list of like greatest movies of like all time. Probably greatest Western or greatest modern Western, I would think. It's got to be on there. When we go ahead and take a break, we'll check on the kiddos. Take a little break, and we'll be back talking more about the series. I already forgot the name of it. Oh my gosh. Big mistake. Big mistake. And we're back. And we're back.

35:00Dirty Dan, the garbage man. I have to say it. Dirty Danette. What? Well, not be the female version of Dan. Dana. Dana. Baby Danjita. Baby Janda. Baby Janda. If you don't watch the pit, you're making a mistake. Yeah, yeah. Nurse Dana is the greatest of all time. Big Janda. All right. So big mistakes. I have a question. Okay. So we're talking about, can I get comfy? You can get as comfy as you want, baby. We're talking about big mistakes. And the idea of, look, you have the blur. Two directional siblings are blackmailed into the world of organized crime. I questioned to you. Have I ever been blackmailed? Yes. Have you ever been blackmailed? No. Why would I be blackmailed? I was. How were you blackmailed? Not for money or anything, but I had somebody holding something over my head. What were they holding over your head? An adult videotape. You dirty down. It was a very long time when I was very young and impressionable

36:04when I was doing something. You know what? I'm before you get into it. I'm just going to say, thank God, they didn't have Snapchat when you were a little kid. You're okay. First of all, not a little kid. You're thinking, God, trust me. If I ever went back to church, it would be to thank the Lord for that specifically. Okay. We were bad enough having my space and then get a Facebook. No, we had digital cameras, but I had a digital camera. I had a digital camera and I had gotten a picture printer one year for Christmas. I remember the idea of kids, not kids. Young adults nowadays wanting to send a nude. You snap yourself and then you send it and you never have to see it again. I had to and I took an underwear picture of myself. I was probably 18 or 19. Any of your underers? Yeah. For a blockbuster boy, I dated this guy. This guy that worked at Blockbuster, don't ask. You think he still works there? I know you dated some winners

37:10in your dad. Let me tell you something. This man. Wasn't best by guy. It was Blockbuster guy. It was Blockbuster guy. Yeah. He was so good looking. Oh, he literally looked like a Greek God. I'm not going to lie to you. I don't know why he worked at Blockbuster, but crazy, crazy story. I got some theories. Crazy story. You're going to your mind. You're going to laugh so hard when I tell you the link that I'm about to get to. So one of the crazy things was he worked at Blockbuster. Yeah, winner. And there was another guy that worked there with him at Blockbuster. And my senior year of high school, which is when I liked this guy or my junior. To call Blockbuster Dan and Blockbuster Jim. No, why Dan and Jim? I don't know. What were their names? I'm not going to release his name, but I will say something that I think you'll link. But so I liked him. I'll never forget because I liked him my June. I started liking him my junior year of high school at some point because I know I couldn't drive and my mom had you drop me off at the Blockbuster and strap

38:14more shopping centers. Hold on. See this guy? You didn't work at Blockbuster. No. You just hung out at Blockbuster. I went to Blockbuster frequently. I've always loved movies. And once I saw this guy working there, I liked Blockbuster. That much more. How many hours per week did you spend at Blockbuster? If he was working, he would get in touch with me to be like, hey, why don't you come see me? And I'd probably like walk around the store with him for like an hour. Did you any ever rent some of his picks? You know, they had the wall with their dresses? I don't remember, but I definitely was I was always coming home with a movie for sure. You're like, you know what? I will try. UHS. I wear it out. No. That would have been one of my picks. And that would have been a no for me, dog. So, so get this. So my so I like to my junior year, my senior year, I walk into I was taking a like appreciation for cinema or some sort of class. I walk into my class and we have a sub and

39:21the sub is the other guy that worked at Blockbuster. And as he's going and doing attendance, sees my name, looks up and goes, oh, I know you. And then proceeds to be like, oh, how so and so in front of my entire class. It was very impressionable. This guy was brothers with a certain hostess that used to work at MJ's when we met the hostess that every boy was fan of. I'm not going to say her name. I'm not going to say her name either. Do you know her name? Sure. Like if we're being realistic, but she was a hostess and I knew she looked familiar and then somebody said her last name and I was like, oh, did your older brother work at Best Buy? And she was like Blockbuster. I'm sorry. Blockbuster. And she was I worked at Best Buy. And she was like,

40:24when you became friends with Queen Latifa. I did bring up Queen Latifa. And Memphis Bleak. Nice. They trusted me as a front lean girl. They didn't think I was going to fangirl them. That's why they gave me. They had specifically, they're like, there's a celebrity coming through. We're going to need you to ring up their seats. And ask if they want a 399 protection plan on this home phone. Brother phones? No, like a home phone. Queen Latifa bought a stack of CDs and DVDs. It was like insane. And she was on her flip phone. And she was in sweats. And she was on her phone the whole time. She was very nice. And I should have been like, I loved the whole day. Anyway. Back to Blockbuster. Back to Blockbuster. Well, we were talking about Blockbuster. You were talking about a side track. That one of your substitute teachers was the man, the second man from Blockbuster. Second one, Blackmail. No, no, no, no. He does not have it. No, no.

41:28A guy that I dated. Uh-huh. Okay. First of all, I'd like to say that I was very easily impressionable. In the sense of I thought when I was younger, wow, this podcast would take a really different turn. But I always liked older men, obviously. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Oh, we have a large age gap, Greg. 10 years in case anyone was wondering. But they couldn't tell. No, you look so young. But I've always, I've always liked men, I'm saying men because they were men when I was a child, basically. And I always liked older guys. But when I was 17, I started dating a guy that worked loss prevention at Best Buy. So he was like security. And he was 23. Jesus. Yeah. And I dated him and that illegal. Yeah. I went off to college. He was insane. And he called me right before my finals or my midterm week

42:36and faked a heart attack. Oh, again, I guess I didn't realize how old you had to be to have a tack. But he had said he always had heart problems. So he literally called me in with like goodbye. That's the last one. He's still alive. Still alive. He did not die of heart attack. So wait, who blackmailed you though? Him. So he didn't like that you were dating blockbuster, dude? No, blockbuster guy was beforehand. So how did we get on blockbuster? I don't know. I don't remember. You talked about blackmailing me. Yeah, I went into blockbuster guy. No, blockbuster guy did not. He was nice. He didn't. Bouncing off your story. You know, I was a substitute teacher for one day. No way. Grammar school or high school. High school. And one of the hostesses that worked with me at Fridays was in the class. And did you mention that she hooked up with one of your fellow bartenders? I did not. I don't think she did. Oh, okay. Well, then good. No, but

43:39how did you get into substitute teaching? Well, because when I was in college, I wanted I was trying to be a gym teacher. And then they dropped the program. So when I got out of college, I went to community college, took a course to be a substitute teacher. You didn't say a course for that? Yes, you did. Like they'll let anybody do that now. And I mean, it was like a six-week course or something. Basically training. And I got the phone call at like 5.30 in the morning to go in, went in one time. And I was like, I am never doing that. My brother was a substitute teacher for a little bit. Yeah, in between. And there were a lot of young girls that were. I couldn't get up early at that point, because I was still working at a teacher. Did you get hit on by the high school girls? No, it was their one day. So I don't know. Not that you know me well enough that if they were, I would have had no idea.

44:39Did you tell you something? If you were to my high school, I would have hit on you. What the fuck was that? I think it's the wind. But they kept calling me and I was like, not answering them forever. Because they needed substitutes, but you know, was that what's, what class did you, so what class did you say? It was all different months. They like bounce you around or whatever. It wasn't like you were the gym substitute or social studies. I literally just sat up there and let them do whatever they wanted. I was like, this sucks. I do not like this at all. And I never liked going to school in the first place. So I mean, that wouldn't have been good for me. You know, I did teach free school for a few years. Yeah. And then I said, if I want to love my own children, I got to get out of here. I do because no, it sounded like it. And it ruined all the names for you, right? It's a hundred percent. I remember when we were trying to find names, you're like, nope, I had this douchey little kid. A hundred percent. It's so true. But there was a part of me

45:42that loved and cared for some of these kids like they were my own. I had baby sat for these brothers. I just absolutely adored these kids. And I loved their their mom too. And I baby sat for them for years. Like, after I didn't work there anymore, I still baby sat for them. And shout out Shane and Squish. Oh my god. Squish was the like the OG landing. He was just oh my god. She was no, no, no, no, no. He was just this chubby cute little blonde like, oh, and he was, they used to call me Missy Cole, instead of Miss Nicole. I love that. They were adorable. They were adorable. But I really felt like there, it was a lot of energy. It was a lot of, it was a lot. Put it up on the line. Yeah, you do. And you're with, you know, I understand work, you know, working moms. A lot of my friends are working moms and I respect it. I just, I know

46:46it was hard enough for me to work part time. Yeah. And, and be with my kid and take that time away from my kid. And, but I was lucky enough that our schedules worked where you were with him when I wasn't. So we didn't have to put him anywhere. Right. That's so stressful. And you never know who's working out those places. I'll tell you that. You see enough in the news now. But Yeah. So I couldn't substitute because I couldn't get up early. And now I get up at three a.m. Yeah. Age changed you. Yeah. How much did I, I still love sleep. But how much did I use to love sleep? A lot. I was like mean if you woke me up before like 11 a.m. Oh for sure. Like and now pre children obviously. In one world would I be sleeping that late with kids? Now you're about seven or eight o'clock every day. Earlier. Yeah. Well seven. Yeah, usually, I usually I'm up by at least seven. But a lot of the times I'm up between like I my

47:47internal clock weeks. Me up between 530 and 630. And I try to lay there and try to. Yeah. But my body says no no bitch. Get up. Get up. Stand up. Now let me ask you this. Please stand up. So they have to work for them off yet. That's basically the whole thing. The organized crime part of it. Would you be able to do that? 100%. You'd be you'd be all in. 100%. I don't understand why they don't go to the cops though. Wouldn't you. Do you not understand how organized crime works? They got cops in their pocket and you don't know which ones they are. Hello. Departed. That's literally the whole movie. I know. But is that the truth? Is that how it really works? Are you saying the Departed was a true story? No. That's what you think. Maybe could have been the whole way. That's a big cop. Want you to think. Yes. Big cop. There and on it. That's someone one of his best friends is a cop. I don't think

48:52they've worked that way. They don't like they don't like the whole dirty cop persona that's out there in movies. How many movies have you watched? We're just like it's a dirty cop versus a good cop. Yeah. We're a green cop. I think it was like that for a while. But with technology nowadays they can find everything. So how could you like any text messages? Any like. Well, yeah. The text with if you are texting. That's how people always get caught. Yeah. If you're texting as a cop, you're more on. Stop texting. Yeah. Tell your friend. Stop texting. No. I'm sure he's not a dirty cop. That's the thing. He's probably has to report your friends. They're probably on the list. They should be. Couple of them. Tell you that right now. Yeah. I don't know. I don't know how I would handle it. Being an organized crime. Yeah. You're not a this is what I'm going to say to you. You're you're a very honest and earnest person. You're not a liar. Yeah. Unfortunately for you.

49:55True. Yeah. No, I just feel like I would be okay with it. I feel like I would be. I think I would thrive. But I always say that the same thing of like there are different times in my life where I feel like if a good looking enough man was running a cult, I would have been in one. Yeah. You're definitely susceptible to a cult. Yeah. Because I'm like, well, you're doing it. I don't know. You watch that David Koreshaw and you're like, you know what? Yes. That was it. Waco. Cheat Waco. Was it Waco or was it? I mean, what was it David Koresh himself or was it Taylor? Whatever his name was? Yeah. Playing. I don't know his name, but I don't. Look. I can't think of what his name was on Friday. Yes. You can. Look at me right now. Look at that. That's only because we just hung out about how with our friend Riggs yesterday. We don't call him that day. We don't. Everybody else does. Um. Shout out more. Shout out to both Riggs. Shout out to Mark for not getting Mark mode yesterday.

50:59I love it. I'm sound for Daniel for instantly getting in with my yesterday. No, but listen, sometimes in the middle of a party, people need to take an app. I'm all for. Could be for three hours. I'm all for it. Listen. Could be in a baby's bed. Listen. I don't need it. I mean, I said yesterday to John. There's a lot of times I would like to take an app in a baby's bed. I was like, Oh, did you take a picture? He goes, No, you know, I've been there and whatever I said, John, I don't know what's happening to you, but you're getting real sweet, real crazy to me. Yeah. Just a real nice guy emerging. He's jolly. He's a big man. He's jolly. Kids change you. You know, he said kids for a long time. I know. We all have. Yeah, we certainly have. But no, great party yesterday. Jenna and Lenny. Yeah. 10 out of 10. Always a good time. Even though we had to cut out because one of our kids might have had an air infection. Who knows? Might have just got sand in his ear. We don't know. Yeah, you just scream in about his ear.

51:59So, no, listen, even if there was nothing wrong with him whatsoever, I am somebody where I truly believe I don't want my kid ruining a vibe. Yeah, because you know what? If I'm out, I don't want somebody else's kid ruining my vibe. Wow. So, I'll take my kid and I'll high-tail it out of there if I think they're ruining the vibe. When we go on our 10-year vibe killers. 10-year anniversary vacation. You've already said you want to stay in the adults only. You're like 100. I wouldn't say anything different. Because you know what's going to happen. This is what I'm going to do right now. The kids are ruining your vibe. Not not only that, but if we went to a resort without our children and we stayed in a part where there was children. Every time I see a toddler, every time I see a little baby, little baby, baby, and soop. I'm going to miss my kids. I'm going to get sad as I swim up to that swim-up bar to take another drink. And then you're just going to find me crying and asking some mom how far along are you? And do you have a name picked out? And then all of a sudden, I'm going to be laying on a lady's pregnant belly and crying and being like, I have three sons. Can we get

53:04in an earlier flight? And then you're going to be like, what are we doing? What the hell? You know, like it's not- You're not impressed with me? You're not going to miss them. So it's going to be me. I'll miss them a little bit. Why are we special? We've been talking about this trip for a long time. This is a long time coming. This is like, we're going to renew our vows. We're going to take picture. I'm going to buy a dress that I actually want to wear that I actually like that I actually look super freaking hot in. He looked hot and our wedding thought. But that's okay. We still had, there's no changes. I would, you know what I mean? We still had such a good time. It was a great wedding. Great time spent with our friend. Well, my friends and your friends didn't show up. Kevin was there. That's my friend. That became your friend. He was- My friend that became your friend. Yeah, because I asked him to sit up there with you. I asked him to. He said yes.

54:08Anyway. Anyway. We're tangeting. I know. A lot of me injured though. Yeah, that's the best part of the podcast I think. I don't know what you guys think. You know what? What? Email us. Let us know. Hitch in the trailer at gmail.com. Have you got one? No. Somebody- Who's going to be the first one to email? Who's going to be the first one? If I had a guess, it'd be my mom. I was going to say the same. My brother. She emails. Your brother definitely does not email. He might not have an email. I don't know. No way. Jerry, if you have an email, I know it's got to be from like Askgees.com. It's got to be. It's instant messenger name. What is it? Jesus? With a G. With a G. The Almighty. Everyone can touch with them.

55:08All right. Well, this is our first series. You think we're going to do more series? What do you think about it? I think if we can't find enough like movie trailers, I think we should do series. I think we like them. Yeah, we watch a lot of series. We watch a lot of shows. If we were to give- If you were to give me your top three shows, you're watching right now. What are they? Well, shrinking the pit and secret lives of Mormon lives. No. Because I'm not watching every episode. You watch like 20 episodes. I pop in for one. And then you pop in and say, I just don't understand why Taylor has such a problem with the code. They're not together. She's going on the match right? Yeah. His top three is not secret lives of Mormon lives. Well, we were watching the beauty, but that's not something we really watch for the kids.

56:10Another one you got to stop and yeah. A lot of sex, a lot of blood, a lot of violence. Definitely. I think we're tied. Our first two are tied right now. The pit and shrinking are definitely up there, but this will be our third. I definitely, I hope so. I think so. I can't imagine that it's not going to be something that we're going to watch it. No, I don't want to ruin the end of the pod. That we don't absolutely love is what I'm saying. I can't imagine that it's not. I'm just looking at these, Cheo, when I just lower my cap and stand on the end. I just love them. I think it's going to be really good. Yeah. I think their interactions will be similar to what his interactions with Catherine O'Hare were in. Oh, Hara, sorry. O'Hare was the guy who owned the company in the Lorax who sold air. No idea. I never saw that. You should watch that. I just put it on to the kids that I walk out. You should watch that when it means a lot. I've seen the Mario Brothers movies 157 days.

57:11What do you think the Lorax is about? You're just going to guess. I'm not a Dr. Seuss guy, so... What do you mean you're not a Dr. Seuss guy? Was that even mean? That means I never really got into Dr. Seuss even when I was little. Your mom didn't read to you the cat in the hat. Not that I remember. Not hot on top? No. I think we had one fish, two fish. Are you my mother? No. Are you joking? These books are like... I just didn't get into it. I wasn't a big... I was more watching Star Wars kind of kid. Oh yeah, books, not for you. Reading. No, the only time I read like continuously it was when I had to work at a front desk of a gym. And you were how old? 25 maybe? So you weren't pulling up with Dr. Seuss like the cat. Now, I was reading like... You're like, oh, the places you will go. This is a college one.

58:12I bet you a lot of girls want to talk to you. They might have thought you were mentally challenged, but they would have talked to you. And now open the door for you to make some moves. Yeah. You know me, the big move maker. God, the worst move maker of all time. It's not my strong suit, I would say. Tell me what is your strong suit? Well, I'll start counting. No, your strong suit is being in the relationship. That's your strong suit. Yeah. You're committed and you're... I'm not good at getting the relationship. But you're going to keeping it? Yeah. You're going to being in it. Being in it better than keeping it. And I'd say so. Well, it's been almost nine years as you alerted me to and kick in. Well, nine years, almost nine years of marriage. Yeah. You heard the other for a few years before that. Yeah. Was that a shotgun wedding? No. Tell me what. All right. So, I think we already know the answer to this question.

59:14But... I think it's the easiest one, yeah. Are you hitching a trailer to this show? I absolutely am. I will be watching big mistakes. Are you hitching your trailer to the show, Greg? Yeah. Of course I'll be watching it. If you're watching and I'm watching it, usually... That's your claim. That's what my wife's... I watched... Basically, if you're watching something, I'll sit there and watch it. If I'm watching something, you're like, I'm going to go upstairs and watch my show. But I'll sit... Well, let's be fair. You're rewashing lost right now. You know how I feel about that show. Yes. PTSD. Yeah. It's a fantastic show. John Locke just got shot. Spoiler alert. I didn't even let me say spoiler alert. That's so freaking rude. All right. Thank you everybody for listening. As always, please follow us on Instagram. Send us an email.
