Berry Blaustein’s VO reminded me of Cal Solomon

You guys made the joke in reference to Chewbacca having a different, perhaps racially motivated name, and it draws weird and uncomfortable parallels to The Dam Busters which Star Wars borrows heavily from. Particularly that the hot shot pilot has a beloved (historically accurate) dog named n-word. A name which is used over and over again in the movie. Anyway. Just a weird coincidence I’m sure. Glad Lucas didn’t use the original name.

Since ABZ like biographies, I have to recommend Mick Foley's Have a Nice Day. I read it when it came out and I was in 6th or 7th grade, peak wrestling fandom, which would've added to my enjoyment of it, but I think it would hold up today wrestling fan or not. Written by Mick I believe, no ghost writer. So many good stories about his way to the top that I still remember, plus some great WWF behind the scenes stories, but I forget if those are in his first or 2nd book. I think there's an audiobook out, too. The stories about wrestling in Japan are nuts and worth the read alone.

Another shadow wolves down and they still haven’t gone in depth on Benedetta. I need to hear their takes on some of the farting and shitting in that movie

Also, any chance #2 all over Chuck in “Good Guys Wear Black” is on the list?

My wife and I have been slowly amassing a 70s-90s VHS action movie/psychosexual thriller collection that we do crafts to every night after work. Action Boyz saved my marriage. Thank you Action Boyz.

That’s bleak but also very endearing

I like the way you integrated cowboy hats into your podcast listening.

I had a connecting flight through Houston and Terry Funk happened to be on my flight. We both went to the bathroom after we landed, and I said hi to him after we were both back outside. I shook his hand knowing he hadn't washed his hands in the bathroom. We talked for a good 5 or so minutes, very nice guy. My point is, I've touched Terry Funk's piss

I'm in Iowa. That's why I hide out in the basement while wearing it watching westerns.

I want to wear a cowboy hat while I deliver mail in Minnesota. Would that be to weird?

Sam Elliot is GREAT in 1883. The first couple seaons of Yellowstone were really fun too. I ended up buying a cowboy hat to wear while I watch the show in my basement...pathetic.

Anyone else who saw Licorice Pizza catch what movie was on the marquee of the theater at the end?

Glad Stanger brought up Boiling Point(2021) I had just watched it before the ep dropped. I enjoyed it. Very tense movie if you’ve ever worked in a restaurant
Mike Cooper
When Shockmaster started talking I truly thought Kevin had inserted Stanger into some old wrestling clip for a new style of cold open

My conservative in laws bring up Yellowstone a lot "it's really good, but don't watch around the kids." We don't have kids
