Celebrity Career Deathmatches Inspired by the Classic TV

Hey guys, this is Rob Paulson and you're listening

to the Geekcast Radio Network. You are now on

the inside of what I like to call the circle

of trust. We are all connected in a great circle

of life. You know something Bert? What? I think

you and I are going in circles. It feels like

we're going in circles. The circle is now complete.

When I left you, I was but the third. Now I am

the last. Because it's a circle. Yeah, we heard

about the circle. Yeah, I swear it really would

change. Hi, this is Greg. This is Chuck. And

this is Dan, and we are Talking in Circles, brought

to you by the GeekCast Radio Network, the podcast

where celebrities' careers go to die. I say that

today because we're playing a brand new game

inspired by that classic TV show clay animation

animation show from the 90s I guess early 2000s

celebrity deathmatch We're gonna be squaring

off some of the most infamous celebrities of

today to determine Whose career needs to die

and who gets to go on but before we get into

all the deathmatches How's the week been going

for you guys? This week was pretty exciting for

me. I know I dropped a deuce Hint, I should say

hint, but that works too. And I dropped a hint.

Oh, was it last week or the week before that

I was expecting an exclusive box set from an

entertainment earth. And if you saw on our Facebook

page, I think Dan put one of my pictures of it

up and that's my guardians of the galaxy. Marvel

legends set finally came in. Yes. How, how, uh,

how good of quality are they live up to your

expectations? Oh, they exceed them. They're fantastic

I have them surrounding my computer right now.

Have you tried to burn grew to the ground to

see you feel we grow? No, I don't but pretty

sure you would because I it comes with the little

flower pot group nice nice nice in the box so

awesome and he is huge too like the actual group

like A dude's like nine inches tall nice. Wow.

Yeah, he's packing some wood there. Yeah Nice

nine -inch group. Yeah, how have you gone on

the people and been like you want to see my group

my nice long wooden group, but There's only says

three words Three those three magical for us

Greg how things going with you? Cool, uh, all

right, uh, I don't think I have anything like

little fun stories or anything Like no one's

taking your tattoo for nazi symbols or turkey

making or anything like that? Um, no this past

weekend. What did I make? Oh, I made a White

bar white sauce barbecue chicken, which was really

good and sausage, which always turns out great.

My dad doesn't care for my barbecue chickens.

I've been trying a whole bunch of different recipes

for barbecue chicken to smoke and he hasn't liked

a single one. So I make the sausage for him.

So very nice. Very nice. I do have kind of a

random story. So someone kind of broke into my

car like the other day, but For the most inane

reason whatsoever. So like the put thing is in

perspective. My car doesn't have much I literally

when I say I have a radio that's legitimately

all I have is a radio af fm No cd player or anything

and uh, so they broke into it by broken I mean

my hatchback was open and they opened it up and

guess what they stole for me that only radio

No, they didn't tell the radio which would be

i'd be like who would you sell that to like but

no They stole no, they stole a half Empty case

of Mountain Dew and that's it and that was it

The I had the omnibus for walking dead the first

one or the second one that wasn't there not touched

I also had a blu -ray of a her which was in there

and not touched So my guess is I was robbed by

a 12 year old call of duty addict and he just

needed his Mountain Dew fix because like that's

all he took Like why do you like how do you even

do that? It's like I'm not even mad I'm just

like I want to give it if you really need a mountain

do that bad. It's just such a random thing That's

kind of weird. Yeah, so I was just like, what

would you? In like I can tell they were looking

for other things, but I think they just got disappointed

and like there's like there's nothing in here

I'm like you can steal my car. Good luck with

it Better luck, but uh, yeah, I feel like you

would be really good for a Mountain Dew commercial

right now. Exactly. Exactly do the do By stealing

it apparently, I don't know. But yeah, that's

all been that's all my week been I've been working

a lot and Know the one thing I did kind of start

doing have you any of you guys watch heroes at

all the TV series? I have not I've watched a

couple episodes, but I didn't get too far into

it. So yeah, I watched it years ago and New series

is coming back heroes are born And I saw the

trailer for it and I was like, well, I'm kind

of I'm kind of excited for it But then I realized

like I remember nothing from that series so I

started going back and watching the first series

season and It's so different comparing it to

like things like arrow or the flash because it's

so much more drama based There's not nearly as

much action. I still really like it though. It's

very Built upon mystery and I know the answer

the most of the mystery but there are certain

things I forgot and the characters are kind of

interesting so it It makes me sad because I realize

what I can't what happened after the first season

It's if you went back if you guys went back to

watch it I would say like give it some time because

it's like I said slower pace in the TV series

of today You're not gonna get those extended

action sequences. The special effects are not

nearly even to the level of something like flash

today But it's just kind of a cool concept that

had some interesting ways of, or some unique

ways of kind of playing with the genre of superheroes.

So I'm really looking forward to seeing what

they do now with all the live action comic book

series and how we've seen what we're capable

of now. Because spoiler alert for those who have

not seen Heroes, but I, well, you guys haven't

seen it. So let's just say the last episode that

there was Opened up things changed the world

completely for hero. So I'm going to be curious

how it how this series picks up So it's one of

the mysteries of is that you know who the red

hood is? I know you nothing about the red hood.

Unfortunately, nothing about the red hood or

Gas parts. So it's okay Inside joke everybody.

Sorry apologize. But yeah, so But Chuck, I know

you haven't watched much, but Greg, I know you

were on a marathon of popcorn of everything recently.

So one of the things you did watch, I also watched,

and that was the Hercules movie starting starring

the rock. Right. Hercules, Hercules, Hercules.

Anytime they said his name through the entire

film, which I feel like they did a lot. I always

wanted to bust out with that. I can I could understand

that. So I. Don't know if you ever saw the other

Hercules movie that came out last year the legend

of Hercules don't I don't Yeah, it looked terrible.

It was the one with the dude from Twilight. It

is it is it is Like legitimately one of the worst

movies I've ever seen ever see I was with this

I figured I'm just The Rock Hercules cuz I'm

like, you know, he can be in it. It's at least

gonna be fun and I thought this be was a lot

of fun Oop, Greg, we lost you. Chuck, you here?

I'm here. I'm here. I'm here. I'm here. Yeah,

I'm here. Greg's really breaking up. I'm sorry.

I don't know what to do for that. Just keep talking

it out, you know? Just keep going. A clear cell

usually works out for breakups. Start again.

I think we should be OK. OK. Start again. Sorry.

Yeah, I didn't go with the legend of Hercules

because it... It looked at good. I figured with

this one at least had the rock thing the rock

is in at least you know, that's gonna be fun

and the the One big compliment I can give this

movie is that it was a lot of fun if you ask

me Yeah, I agree. I think it was a lot of fun

it it had a lot of you know, it felt like an

old -school fantasy film like from the 1980s

like the like the Can't think of it one that

comes to mind maybe like the original remember

the Titans not remember the Titans. That's a

completely different movie What is that movie

called? But that's all I really been watching

but Craig I know you've been you've actually

watched a bunch for us you've been making out

for Chuck and I because we're kind of slacking

and One of the things you watch is also something

I watch which was the Hercules movies starring

the Rock So I was curious to hear what you thought

of that I thought that was really good. There

was another Hercules movie out that I wasn't

too interested in, but this one had Dwayne The

Rock Johnson in. So I figured anything that The

Rock is in is at least has to be fun. And I really

thought this movie was a lot of fun to say the

least. And they said Hercules a lot. They said

his name a lot. And every time they did that,

all I wanted to do was go, Hercules, Hercules,

Hercules. I thought that the concept behind it

was kind of a neat take on it. It was instead

of just going through his trials. They talked

about it but it was more of the talk of that

he has all these like kind of friends around

him and how he kind of had his friends help and

this legend grew out of that. So that was it

was a really interesting concept I thought. I

thought the acting was really well done. But

other than that, it was kind of shitty. Other

than that, it was a piece of grow ridge. It was

really fun though. I would seriously watch it

again because it was so much fun. The CGI was

terrible. I found it weird that they had like

this legend about him, but he needed help doing

it. But he was still really powerful. Like he

was throwing shit around like crazy and he was

still doing like these legendary moves and everything.

Like he was super strong. So I didn't really

understand that. I think it's kind of one of

those movies that all. Have a cult following

down the line here. So I agree. I mean, I thought

it was it was fun for sure I think that's a killer

for it. Yeah, the the little twist they put on

it where it's like they try to Explain the legend

of Hercules and where it comes from and whatnot

that you know, it was interesting at least put

a little neat concept and I think it reminded

me a lot of like the Original clash of the Titans

from the 80s or willow like you said very cheesy

in a good way the special effects look Questionable

at best but I almost wonder if that was supposed

to go with the kind of the ridiculous theme,

but who knows I It falls in line with a guilty

pleasure. It's like the perfect movie to watch

on Netflix in the middle of the day You know,

it's like not much stakes going on You can just

sit back and enjoy it and the Bronx charismatic

enough to make it work and I thought this is

like band Brothers per se were you know, we're

cooler. They all you know, they're pretty much

defined But whatever weapon they were using but

you know, you'll have that with like those type

of adventure movies. So Yeah, I agree with all

of that. It's not uh, it's not you know, and

reinventing the wheel by any means But you know

if you're a fantasy fan if you like that type

of genre I don't see why you wouldn't enjoy it

at least at least a little bit maybe if you go

in with low expectations you might be a little

bit better and million trillion quadrillion times

better than the legend of Hercules starring the

Charismatic void that is Ken Lutz That movie

legitimately is you think like the CGI this the

CGI in this and that makes this look like freaking

the pinnacle of Movie making it's like it's pathetic.

It's like it's like I've seen better computer

graphics and first -generation PlayStation games

and better acting too It was just awful and every

it was just such a waste of waste of time. So

wait, are you also saying that you prefer the

rock as an actor over Kellen Lutz? I would say

I legitimately prefer a rock, like an actual

rock, as a better actor than him. The inanimate

object of a rock has got more personality than

he does when he's on screen. But besides that,

he's pretty good. But that's only the beginning,

Greg, because I know you said you watch a few

other things. I did. I picked up a couple of

movies and TV shows at Best Buy. I know that

people would rather go to Amazon, but sometimes

I just need to get out and do stuff. Outside

in the real world because I don't really do much

out there anyway But I picked up a couple of

things and then there was also something on Netflix.

It was Expendables 3 that I watched on Netflix

Welcome to Kellen Lutz podcast where we but yeah

If you're gonna watch the Expendables movies,

I'd stick to the first two. I thought they were

much better than this third one. It's not as

exciting. I didn't understand the idea behind

Sylvester Stallone's character leaving his original

team, putting together a younger team, which

took up way too much time of the movie. And it's

like them getting kidnapped. It felt like all

of that was just like... a waste in the middle

of this movie. Let's abandon this ridiculously

experienced older team that's the best at what

they do in the entire world. Yes, because he's

having his own issues and everything. And then

he brings in this younger team who gets kidnapped.

So and then the older team has to save them anyway.

So it just feels like a complete waste. Yeah,

I say watch the beginning, like the opening sequence

when they save Wesley Snipes from a tax evasion

jail. Yes, that was good. Even says tax evasion,

too. Yeah. And maybe the last, what is that,

30, 45 minutes of the movie. But there's also

where Wesley Snipes is in action at the kind

of the beginning, too, after they saved him.

So you want to watch the beginning and the end,

the middle with Kelsey Grammer. There's a couple

of nice little laughs in there, but it's just

him assembling the team. I don't know. It felt

kind of like a waste. And I wasn't even that

interested in the end action. It was much more

eventful in other movies. I wish Terry Crews

was in there. I felt like he added some fun into

it, but he was only in there for a little bit.

Yeah, he was filming Brooklyn Nine -Nine, which

if you've not seen is brilliant. I love that

show. Yeah, I thought Internet Bandera's was

a little fun, but yeah, yeah, it's like Let's

take you know all the reason behind these like

all these people that you know and love and see

them together So let's get rid of that and get

all these other people that you don't care about

and put them in it But yeah, it was try to make

them action stars Yeah, I I agree and then like

and I was pg -13 too, which I don't necessarily

think it needs an art rating But I thought it

was just it made the action very dull Yeah, it

wasn't that exciting Well, I hope the next thing

I know that you watch because i'm a big fan of

it That was a little bit you have a little bit

favorable reaction to it and that was silicon

valley at uc. Did you? catch up with it I picked

up the first season. I never saw it on HBO because

I don't have HBO, but I picked it up because

I listened to the podcast Indoor Kids, which

is a podcast a while ago that you recommended

for me, Dan. And it's a video game podcast with

Kumail Nanjiani and his wife, Emily V. Gordon.

And as you know, we don't really talk about video

games that much and we really don't play them.

too often anymore but I think out of the three

of us I probably play the most often and so I'm

interested in the new games coming out I really

need to upgrade my system and everything I just

haven't I wanted to save my money up for different

things but uh so I picked this up because I listened

to Kumail and I figure I kind of support them

a little bit and I made a giant mistake which

kind of ruined the experience, I think, for me

a little bit. When I opened it up, there's paperwork

on the left -hand side as you open up the, it's

not a jewel case, but the DVD case. And so I

picked up the DVD on the right and put that in.

And I thought I was playing the first episodes,

but I actually started at episode, I think it

was five. I watched five through eight, and then

I watched one through four. So that kind of...

stunk for the most part. But other than that,

I thought it was good. I didn't think it was

as hilarious as I thought it was going to be.

Kumail does have a bunch of good lines in there

because I did laugh out loud at a couple of the

things that he has said in that. But other than

that, I thought it was okay. I thought it was

interesting and amusing and kind of a fun behind

the scenes type of thing. I definitely liked

the whole trying to jerk off algorithm. I was

going to ask, what did you think of the final,

the final infamous dick joke? The dick joke was

freaking hilarious. So I liked that. There's

like certain things I liked about it, but otherwise

it was just kind of like, okay, I didn't see

what all the talk about was. But I found it amusing.

I would definitely watch more of it because I

think I got the the blu ray and it was only like

twenty five bucks for the eight episodes. I thought

that was a good value. So I would do it again.

I actually I loved the first season and I think

what I really liked about it, too, was just how

it satirizes that. Entire kind of industry of

the yeah, you know the tech industry and tech

bubble and I loved it like the characters as

well and I don't know I always found it like

endlessly funny and I can't think of any things

specifically just mostly the characters themselves

and just their interactions and how it like just

its dry sense of humor it does very much feel

like a you know, I might judge property because

it it is able to seem Realistic enough to see

it to make it seem like maybe this could actually

happen. So Yeah, and I enjoyed the storage container

gag. I enjoyed that a lot. There were things

I enjoyed definitely throughout the whole thing.

So it wasn't like I hated it, but it just I don't

think it was what I expected it to be for the

most part, but it was definitely enjoyable. I

think it's second season is even better. So I'd

be curious to see if you like that more. Okay.

Well, I'll have to check it out eventually when

it comes out Yeah, not that make you buy more

things. Yeah, I know I've bought too much already.

I just went to I was at Home Depot and I picked

up a whole bunch of stuff for smoking this weekend

But in my other pickups this week, I also picked

up Batman verse Robin which they kind of took

the whole Court of Owls storyline and switched

it and changed it around a bit. It was an interesting,

different take on it, I thought, so I really

enjoyed the story for the most part. The animation

was okay, I really didn't, the animation is kind

of a personal preference type of thing. I really

didn't care for it too, too much. The voice acting,

it was weird with how Robin was voiced because

they very much like little boyed him up. And

so it was... That sounds just wrong. Is that

a technical term? Yeah. It was very distracting

any time Robin spoke, Damian, Wayne. So I didn't

enjoy that. And I didn't in fact that Damian

was so on par. with Nightwing and Batman in fighting.

He kind of beat both of them at different points.

Yes, he was kind of more on the level with Batman

and the only reason he won that was because Batman

let him because he had to save Damian and everything.

It just felt weird to me for the most part. Was

the guy who voiced him the same person? Yeah,

it looks like it was the same kid who voiced

him. in uh son of batman have you seen that at

all no i didn't see son of batman i looked for

that one while i was up there but i just didn't

it wasn't yeah i wasn't really fan of that and

i'm i'm right there with you with the animation

style it's it's not necessarily bad animation

like i said it's just more personal taste it's

a little too realistic which is a weird word

word to say but i i like it like a little bit

cartoony you know i like that's why i think i

like to boost him animation because it it doesn't

try to resemble real life Too much and it's able

to kind of separate itself, which I think you

kind of need I think that's the point of superheroes

unless you're doing live -action. It just almost

feels like Like a animated live action movie,

if that makes any sense. Yeah, and also the fight

scenes were very stagnant. It wasn't a lot of

moving around. There was a one point where Batman

was fighting the Talon and like they were just

standing there for the most part and it was just

kind of like their arms were like moving and

sparks were flying off as they were hitting each

other. It kind of was like they were planted

in in place they were moving fast but it kind

of felt like they were just static for the most

part like it was just their upper body moving

and it was really weird the fight scenes in it

So, like, I wouldn't really recommend that one

to anybody. I love Batman. I love the Korda Owl

storyline, and I found the changes they made

were quite interesting. There were some elements

in there that I didn't care for too much, but

I don't want to give away any spoilers or anything.

But I really didn't enjoy it other than their

concept of changing the Korda Owl storyline for

the most part. What's too bad? Yeah, I have not

kept up with that one. I kind of wasn't a fan

of Sonic Batman So I'm like why wait, why waste

my time? I thought Philip be very unlikely. I

would enjoy it So have you seen any of those

Chuck? No, I haven't seen any of those. Well

based upon our reviews don't keep it. Yeah I

would recommend it a lot of the newer DC movies.

I really haven't been Too interested in like

from what I'm seeing like yeah waiting for a

killing joke to come out now because that yeah

pretty much You might like I don't know you might

like the one I talked about last week But you

might not because it does completely change everything

you like about Superman so maybe Yeah, I mean

I'm at this point. I'm kind of exhausted by the

alternate reality stories like Say it ain't so

say it ain't so every single one They do is alternate

reality thing like we get back to the normal

universe like yeah Especially with Marvel at

this point with the whole battle world situation

going on Yeah, all right got anything else Greg.

Are you here? Is that the end of your? marathon

I also got Kingsman, but you guys already heard

my review that that's a lot of fun. I watched

that one in the theater. So I picked that one

up again. But yeah, I think that's it. I have

a couple other things here to watch. I also have

another DC animated movie with the second Justice

League where with Aquaman in it. I've got Throne

of the Lances. Yes. And I know how that one is.

Okay, we'll do I also got red 2 which is the

the sequel to the the bruce willis movie of red

Which I enjoyed the first one. So I picked up

so it's not like a sequel to the color because

I'd be kind of cool No, not sequel to the color

and then I also picked up another season of game

of thrones, which I'm excited to watch Uh my

girl amelia clark get in action again. So what

season are you on? Uh, I picked up season four

I don't even know what season they're on right

now. I think they just finished five. I think

they just finished five. Yeah And Chuck, I know

you don't have a you didn't watch anything, but

you wanted to bring something up. I finally was

able to find and watch the Deadpool trailer from

San Diego Comic Con. Nice, nice. I was able to

track it down. They weren't all pulled off the

Internet, apparently. But I remember you guys

saying like, it's really crappy quality, like

it's way in the background and everything, which

it is. But I thought it was hilarious. Just the

the bit I saw of it. I really like how it's.

Kind of more R rated and stuff Like all the jokes

about his face and everything that were hilarious

Yeah, I'm really excited for that I gotta agree

with you. My only worry is that it's like too

much of that humor because I think there is a

breaking point. But I think having a lot of those

characters like other ensemble characters are

gonna make it work and especially Colossus. I

really think that's kind of a nifty little twist

they put on it by putting him in there. Yeah,

I loved seeing him in there. Although he doesn't

go by the name Colossus, you know, based on what

Deadpool calls him. What does he call him? I

miss that. I think he calls him a giant chrome

cock -cobbler. It might be his official new name

and then classes just kind of like standing there

and It was really funny. But cool. Yeah, I didn't

realize I hadn't realized that that's actually

coming out in February. So yeah, and it's gonna

be an early one We won't have to wait too awful

long for it And then a few months after that

like in March or April Batman v Superman comes

out. So it's gonna be weird Yeah, next year is

an action -packed year for movies. Yeah Yeah,

definitely definitely and it was funny cuz like

it's supposed to be 2015 and then a lot of stuff

got pushed back to next year but you still have

some cool things coming out this year like The

new James Bond movie, which I'm really looking

forward to and you know that what's that thing

called Star Wars? I think is coming out something

like that Yeah, something with like lights and

Sabres. Yeah, the Buffalo team. I think I don't

know it's weird Alrighty, so what we're going

to do is take a quick break and when we come

back we will be discussing celebrities in deathmatch

style, determining whose career should go on

and whose career needs to die. We'll see you

in a bit. Mark Who 42's Who -niverse. As we review

Doctor Who episodes past and present, discuss

the Doctor's friends and enemies, see where the

Doctor's been, where he is, and where he's going.

Sit back and grab a Jelly Baby and join Mark

Who 42's Who -niverse. It's the ride of this

and every other lifetime. Fantastic. Allons -y!

All right, and welcome back and today what we're

doing and like I started set it up front is that

inspired by that classic MTV TV show celebrity

death match where they use claymation to face

off celebrities We're gonna do that but podcast

style and what we're thinking here is we're gonna

pose two celebrities they could be annoying celebrities

or they could be people we actually admire the

key is The winner gets to go on with the career

the loser is gonna go away forever. So we're

never gonna hear from them again. In some ways

it'll be a positive and some ways it might be

a negative. So we'll have a little bit of fun

with it here. And if you've listened to our badass

bracket previously where we try to talk about

like the bait over who are the biggest badasses,

it's gonna be similar to that combined with our

most annoying celebrities episode. So we'll see

how it goes. And if there are other matchups

that you would like us to do, feel free to comment

at keycastradio .com or blogtalkradio .com. Or

nerdly .co .uk or you the million places you

can listen to us or Facebook Twitter You know

how it works. Just throw it out on the internet.

I'm sure we'll catch it we're gonna start with

off with a with the power a power couple when

it comes to the world of pop culture and The

question is here. One of these people will go

away forever one continues and lives on with

their career We have Kim Kardashian going up

against Kanye West We have wife We have husband

Who's more annoying or I guess if you're bigger

fans of one of the other who gets to go on here?

Who needs to have their career die? I don't know.

I think I think I would personally say Kanye

West needs to have his career die because Anyone

that like self -centered and narcissistic It's

just extremely annoying. Like I know Kim's annoying

with how much like time she's in the news and

everything, but just the comments that this guy

makes, his quotes, like I think we even went

through and read some quotes of his one time.

Yes, we did. It's just absolutely ridiculous.

This person is not existing in this reality.

That's just the best way to put it. He needs

to just go away. Well, he thinks he's the the

best rock star alive Like he declared this I

was listening to Babylon with Kevin Smith and

Ralph Garman and they were talking about him

at a show like maybe a month back or something,

or he was in England and he declared himself

the most famous, the best rock star alive. And

then he sang Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody. Oh, wow.

Yeah, and they played a bit of it too. It was

Awful like you know when you have like you have

to go to a concert and it's like a high school

concert or whatever and they have like the kids

in chorus singing and Like everyone's to while

the girl off -key and you kind of cringe it was

like that but with autotune You go off -key with

autotune That is talent right there what what's

worse him or his fans because I remember when

he did like when he teamed up with Paul McCartney

and Like people were posting in Facebook and

Twitter like like I really don't know who this

Paul McCartney guy is But that's what I love

so much about Kanye like he takes a nobody and

works with them and turns them into a somebody

I'm like, are you freaking serious? Come on Well,

it's like it's people are just stupid because

I remember when Titanic was like we released

in the theaters and There's a huge amount of

people who tweeted. It's like wow Titanic is

based on a real story that actually happened.

I'm like, yeah people are really willing to let

their idiocy fly when it comes to the internet,

but yeah See, I guess I agree with everything

you guys are saying about Kanye West But I say

like at least in all honesty there are songs

and music he does that I find You know that I

enjoy and I think he has legitimate talent He

does not nearly has as much talent as he think

he does I don't think I don't think it's humanly

possible be as talented as he think he is but

with Kim Kardashian, I don't feel like She brings

anything to the table that she hasn't already

brought, you know I don't know how many more

new photos she can release or like I just find

she's just Completely famous for being famous

in no. No, she's not famous for being famous

Dan. She is famous for putting a dick in her

mouth True true true. So I guess that's the key

to fame. So I don't but yeah That's all I have

to do to be famous and get lots of money Which

reminds me of I forget what concert was like

a dick in my mouth again It reminds me of a concert

I saw where someone took an image from that infamous

video at Kanye West's Show blew it up and was

like holding it in this in the crowd Yeah, so

that's that's pretty cute, but so I get everything

you guys are saying by Kanye West, but I think

I would I'd rather Deal with his ego then deal

with the those people that are the Paris Hilton's

Kardashians of the world like stop that trend

immediately At least if you're gonna be egotistical

at least do something that's not just being a

reality tv show where you just get tan I I would

rather somebody that's lazy and doing nothing

than a person with an ego though dan I hate hate

people with egos. In elementary school, there

was this one girl that was very stuck up. I hated

her to death. And like, it's the same thing with

him. Anybody with an ego that thinks they're

so great is instantly the worst person in the

world to me. It might even surpass murderers

for some reason. I feel like she has an ego too,

but maybe she's just not as boisterous with it.

Yeah, she's not. And that's why I would rather

him jump off a cliff somewhere than her. And

at least she's female so it may be sexist, but

that's another reason why I'd rather keep her

You'd rather see another sex tape with Kim Kardashian

then another sex tape with Kanye West But to

be honest if Kanye West had a sex tape It would

just probably be him himself because I doubt

like he would let somebody else on screen But

yeah, all right. So I guess I'm outvoted on this

one so in this celebrity death match Kim Kardashian

would be moving on and Kanye West career would

be coming to an end and The good results out

of all of this is at least they're not together

anymore to produce more offspring That's very

true. So the world wins because no one needs

a someone named like East West or Southwest I

heard she's having another hit Thank God and

the existing children would win too because they

would honestly be better off being raised by

a mutant rat in the sewers Splinter would be

a million times better than any of me totally

would even the shredder. Let's be honest It probably

looks at Kanye West is like dial down a little

bit man. Like yeah, I want to rule the world

but seriously All right, well, let's let's go

to the world of sports and This is it feels fitting

talking about this because it's very much in

the news while you have Tom Brady and his the

flight gate Which is once again dominated headlines

recently, you know Robert Kraft had this huge

statement calling out the league and all that

craziness going on it seems like it's a story

that won't end and Also kind of oddly this year

is that Alex Rodriguez is having a resurgence

career a year when it comes to at least putting

let's say putting out but he he's not he's not

Kim Kardashian when it comes to uh overall statistics

he's having one of his better years in such a

long time so it can only assume he's taking drugs

again but so so for the celebrity death match

we're taking two cheaters and facing them off

against one another we have Tom Brady and Alex

Rodriguez Whose career is gonna die and who's

gonna keep going on for another day? Tom Brady's

gonna miss the high five Hit Alex Rodriguez in

the head He's gonna hit his head off of the ground

when he gets punched in the face by Tom Brady's

fist and bleed out No, I hate Tom Brady Morris,

but I I'm kind of biased since I watch a ton

more football than I do baseball I do not like

baseball. It is one of the most boring sports

in The world if you ask me so I would definitely

have a Tom Brady and his career so I don't have

to deal with him anymore This way I I don't watch

baseball so I wouldn't even have to see Alex

Rodriguez anyway, so yeah Chuck I think I have

a slight idea of where you might go being a Dolphins

fan. I hate Tom Brady Although I do agree I think

Alex Rodriguez is the bigger cheater. Yes, like

all Brady did was You know allegedly remove some

air from the ball a little bit and you know a

rods like Juicing up and everything and having

this huge advantage over other players Although

not many because we don't know how many you're

actually juicing So maybe it's a lovely playing

field his ball shrunk for an entirely different

reason Exactly Although I do think a rods a bigger

cheater. I'm just so tired of hearing about Tom

Brady And even before all this, I was tired of

hearing it like, you know, he's also one of ESPN's

golden boys. But now it kind of looks like they're

trying to tear him down. But well, they love

doing that. They love creating their idols and

then storing them bit by bit, you know. Yeah.

And I thought it was interesting that they were

I don't know if you were listening to this last

couple of days or not. But unfortunately, we

had radio on in our. Office and I had to listen

to it all freaking day long. They Talked non

-stop about wait, wait ESPN ESPN talked about

the same thing for an entire day. I never do

that seems odd But uh, I found out that they

were saying That Brady destroyed his phone when

like I heard like the actual report was like

they told him They didn't need to confiscate

his phone. So his Plan was up with his provider.

So he went got a new phone like Like they made

it sound like he ran it over this truck threw

it in the lake and like Yeah, that is funny a

little editorializing there He destroyed it by

getting a new one and just leaving it on the

counter. So yeah So are you you you're gonna

say that Brady goes away and a rod lives another

day, correct? Yeah, I guess I'll again once be

the the odd man out and I think the key thing

like you said I feel I'll try to guess is the

bigger cheater and he's just a Despicable person.

I know Greg. You don't watch baseball at all

But if you look at a lot of stuff he has done

and just the way he's acted and the lives he's

ruined He's kind of like what it lands Armstrong

did with his denial so did a rod in a lot of

ways and He was supposed to be the guy who made

the home run stats the home run record matter

again like he was like the golden he was literally

similar like Brady the golden child who was gonna

you know right the wrongs of Barry Bonds and

then finds out that no he as well has been cheating

this entire time and of course lied about it

and kept lying about it and everything so I don't

hate Tom Brady as much as a lot of people this

whole thing has been kind of ridiculous I do

think like he's looking like a complete tool

with all this going on With even in his knitted

hat and fine -tuned clothing, but and but so

I would say go with a rod But I'm outvoted here.

So a rod is going on to face No, I guess a rod

and Kim Kardashian. No, we're not actually doing

a tournament So a rod wins this matchup and Tom

Brady looks like the he'll be missing more than

four games this year. So uh Chuck I think you

had a couple matchups. You want to throw one

out there? Sure. I'll toss one out there. Let's

see Let's stick sort of in the sports world,

except we'll go with not on the athlete side,

but more of the analyst side. These are two radio

talk show hosts, actually. Let's do Colin Cowherd

and Dan Lebatard, both from ESPN. Well, not anymore.

Right. Formerly, yeah. Well, while you guys are

discussing this one because I know nothing about

either of these guys I'm gonna go take a piss

have fun. I'll be good luck. That's luck. See

I will I will say this I maybe I I've not listened

to much of Dan Lambert I just show I uh, it's

on when I'm at work So I missed most of it, but

I've listened to cowards I say podcast because

that's usually how I listen to it podcast or

radio show and I kind of I I don't agree with

him a lot, but I actually Like colin cowherd.

He's you know, he has an ego on him for sure

I think both of them do but I think he his podcast

has let or keep saying podcast his radio show

is at least interesting and he's a good host

and he's uh, when it comes to Like multimedia

and creating shows. I think he's got he's really

smart like sports sports nation was a show that

he created which I think is one of the better

things on espn And even liked his football show

a little bit. So dan lebertard. I like i've never

really liked him He's always run me the wrong

way. He makes good points He's a good person

to have but I find them to be a little bit a

little bit too much at times so I would I would

say him go away and Come Howard live another

day. Although it looks like he'll be living another

day on Fox Sports if if rumor has it. Yeah Honestly,

I see what you're saying. I definitely got to

disagree that con coward shows interesting I

think he just he talked about so many things

that Don't have to do with sports. He gets completely

off track and Goes into really weird realms of

stuff like he ends up talking about pancakes

and like Pancakes like pancakes and like farming

and like I don't know where this stuff come from

like I Listen to him at work and stuff kind of

not by choice because it's someone else's radio,

but you just get really annoying and I was So

happy when I heard that he was leaving ESPN,

which he kind of got forced out. But it was a

little bit of a for slash. It was a little bit.

He was he got forced out a week early. Yeah.

Not technically fired, but, you know, made some

comments about baseball players and stuff like

that. I don't know. I always felt like his. His

comments made sense and I don't maybe they're

a little bit out there, but I felt like he was

good at contextualizing Different arguments and

kind of putting things in a different perspective

and I feel like a lot of ESPN announcers are

very uh standard and kind of just don't know

how to have a personality and I would say at

least for both of these guys they do they at

least feel like they are able to Not just kind

of stow the line of what the es main wants them

to say though. It feels like those people are

getting kicked out But if I feel like you look

at someone like calling cat hard compared to

like skip bayless I feel skip a list assess things

to be you know To be that guy to get attention

and I don't get that from calling coward as much.

I mean occasionally I think he knows how to certainly

rally all up a crowd and I think he'll say things

that will make Maybe he doesn't completely agree

with but he knows we'll get people's attention

But I feel like skip bail is that's all he does.

So yeah, and I mean, I mean, he's definitely

a smart guy, but it's just like It's always he

always seems like a company line kind of guy

right up until He got you know, he made this

mistake but he always seemed like he was a company

line kind of guy like always saying the right

thing that the popular people would side with

and things like that. And I don't know. He just

always annoyed me for whatever reason. But Dan

Libertard is also annoying. He makes a lot of

annoying comments. But I think I would actually

prefer Colin Coward to just to just fade away.

And I would not be upset if I don't see his face

on or hear his voice on radio at all. Does Libertard

have a radio show, too, or does he just have

a TV show? He does have radio show. It's late

in the afternoon on ESPN. Okay, but I'm honestly

if if you're looking for like a really good Talk

show like ESPN talk show with personality and

stuff. I would recommend Ryan Rossello and Scott

van Pelt. I think yeah, I do I do like them a

lot, too I don't know. I it's funny cuz I felt

like when you say he says a popular opinion.

I never got that from him. I My favorite actually

probably are Mike and Mike and like Scott Van

Pelt because I was yeah Scott Van Pelt and Ryan

Roussela really good at just like Getting through

the hype and just like making you calling things

out when they need to call things out It's like

this is not a big deal. Why are you making this

a big deal? Right? I think I just relate better

to those guys like I Mean is it because Scott

Van Pelt has all the funny voices It is yeah

Very nice. Yeah, very cool. I mean, I understand.

I think you're not alone I think a lot of people

hate calling cowards. So I think a lot of people

very happy hearing he's leaving but I agree with

Dan because he hasn't gotten any buddy through

yet I get I get a pity vote. So so we've been

talking about people that are annoying Well,

I mean we'll flip it around here and the thing

with this is two people that I think Arguably,

I think we all like who are both in Marvel films

and probably two of the most notable names in

Marvel films right now and we have Chris Pratt

and Robert Downey Jr. So Iron Man and Star Lord.

Thinking about it right now, would you rather

Marvel films without an Iron Man or Marvel films

without a Star Lord? What do you guys think?

Take it away, Greg. Oh, damn it! Damn you, Chuck!

I could go if you want. I'm gonna go with Star

-Lord being more awesome and getting rid of Cap

just because I feel like there's a lot more humor

and that's the only reason. Only reason is because

I think there's a lot more humor with Star -Lord

and I think that world is just a little bit more

interesting. You mean then getting rid of Stark?

Oh stark. Yeah, I was putting cap for some reason

You just really want to get rid of Captain America

For some reason I think it was because I was

listening once again to Babylon and They were

talking about Chris Evans and Chris Pratt showing

up at a hospital to help out a little kid. Yeah,

I thought about doing both of those, but I figured

that it'd be an easier way out because they're,

you know, they're very one's funnier, one's not.

I figure with this one, they both kind of have

similar personalities, so it's harder to choose.

Damn it. That's a tough one. I'm going to go

with Iron Man just because he has more established

in the universe. So I'd get rid of Chris Pratt

just because Robert Doherty Jr. has more established.

There was the eye. hated the third iron man movie

but it's not about the movie it's about stark

himself yeah i'd get rid of chris pratt just

because uh we have more invested in robert downey

jr as iron man than we do with chris pratt as

yeah starler what do you think check i think

i would Would choose for Tony Stark to go away.

I think we could I think we would be better off

keeping Chris Pratt in the MCU Yeah, I gotta

I think I'll agree with you there because the

way I kind of look at it and I agree with you

Greg that we have more invested with stark But

I feel like his story has been kind of completed.

I feel like I know I'm the on man out that likes

Iron Man 3, but I felt like that least put a

Nice booking and to his it's it's sailed him

off in the sunset I know he wasn't each of Ultron

and whatnot, but I feel like with Star Lord We

have more to explore we have a lot more open

there And I think Robert Downey jr. Is pretty

much hit the peak of what he can do with that

character But I think there's still a lot Chris

Bratt can do with Star Lord So I would say you

know Robert Downey jr. Is done his thing time

for Star Lord to take the ring I am not mad for

losing that one. Yeah I'm just upset that starks

going against Captain America. So I just want

him to go away Yeah, I'm anti -registration.

So go go away start All right, well, let's think

of some other and this is gonna be hard because

they're both super duper annoying and I feel

like when you talk about annoying celebrities

that you say that I think these two are gonna

be To the first people talk about and that is

Justin Bieber And Miley Cyrus who I guess is

hosting the VMAs Seems ridiculous and be they

have music music videos like do we need don't

you I don't even know those are still thing I

am but I am old so who knows But we hurt we have

to choose between these two who goes away This

one's I I know we wish that would be a draw and

they both are gone forever But you had to pick

one who we're gonna go with They both commit

suicide and everybody wins. We Question like

is there a chance when they're fighting that

it's gonna be hard to tell who's who? Yes Here's

here. Here's my opinion. I think we should cut

off Miley Cyrus and then this way kids Justin

Bieber could still be deported to Canada. That

works, right? I think you're going to say cut

off Miley Cyrus because Justin Bieber could be

her and himself. That's also very true. I really

don't want to see Justin Bieber, Justin Bieber

twerking. I don't really want to see them twerking.

Or on a wrecking ball. Although they have the

same exact body type, so. That's true. I get

rid of Justin Bieber. He's at least forgetting

boobies with Miley Cyrus. Where? Yeah, even though

it's disgusting with her naked, I don't know.

I feel gross every time she's naked. I don't

know. I just it's once again, I think Justin

Bieber has a little bit more of an ego. Miley

Cyrus is a little bit more look at me. And I

usually hate people with egos more than the look

at me thing. So I'm going to cut off Justin Bieber.

All right, Chuck, do you agree? Let me start

by saying. Never thought I would say this phrase,

but I feel sorry for Billy Ray Cyrus Who would

have thought like the mullet would be the best

thing that ever happened to him I know right

I feel so bad cuz he you know, they had Hannah

Montana, you know She was a role model for young

girls and everything just all of a sudden just

went off a cliff and That you know was totally

over Know she is really disgusting like The faces

she makes like it's just Unbelievable like I

always see those like, you know those weird ads

on the bottom of web pages like the clickbait

things She's always in those and like those really

disgusting poses and making weird ass contorted

faces and stuff She's really annoying from that

aspect. But um, I know Bieber was annoying because

he got like involved with uh, uh, what was it

keeshawn johnson was his neighbor or whatever

and he was Pissed off at him because he was driving

his ferrari really fast on the street or something.

Yeah, he's pretty obnoxious, but boy, I don't

know I think I i'm still holding out hope that

one of them is gonna grow up at some point and

just yeah, I would think if you say one would

be I think Miley Cyrus probably has a better

chance of growing up because Yeah, she's kind

of crazy, but I almost kind of feel bad for her

because you think about it like When you you've

become that type of like symbol at such a young

age it's kind of kind of mess you up because

like Being followed by paparazzi and like being

kind of ogled by really old guys. It's got to

mess you up as a person So I kind of I I think

I sympathize with her a lot more than Justin

Bieber who's just a tool Yeah, you know like,

you know, she he's just a douchebag. I feel like

Mollie Cyrus it might be just a I think it's

just someone trying to it's confused and I kind

of I can understand why she'd be confused or

just trying to figure out who she is as a person

and I think so I would I would rather Bieber

go away because and then her go and I think at

least I Don't listen to either in their music.

I've heard I mean I've heard both songs I would

say I think Miley Cyrus makes better music than

he does so I was just I was just gonna say I

think I'm I'm gonna pick Bieber to go away because

I actually somewhat enjoy Miley Cyrus is singing

more than his. Yeah. Yeah, no, I don't have them

either in my iTunes shuffle or anything like

that. But, you know, you do, Dan, admit it. No,

I know. I know there are my ringtones. For people

I know, I don't want to pick up the phone for.

Well, Justin Bieber, Colin did not answer that.

Why won't you pick up? I don't know. Chuck, do

you have any more? Oh, yeah, sure. We'll throw

one out there. How about a little comic book

one? This could be interesting. Apologize for

stealing one of Greg's jokes here, but Apocalypse

versus Ivan Ooze. I stole that one off Twitter

like Conan O 'Brien. It doesn't have to be serious

I'll go with I'll go with apocalypse because

I haven't used this just creepy. It's just he

looks like kind of like a pedophile. I'm not

gonna lie Yeah, both of them are way too much

purple though, yes And when their powers powers

combine they become grimace from Michael from

McDonald's I'll throw a serious one out These

are two comedians, two comedic actors. One was

once great, I guess. Once had a lot of great

movies back in the day. Another one was once

mediocre, I guess, maybe you would say. But let's

do Adam Sandler versus Seth Rogen. Seth Rogen

and Adam Sandler, wow. I know Adam Sandler's

been bomb in his last few movies here. Yeah,

I know a lot of people are saying you should

just give it up. I Mean, I love a lot of you

know, Adam Sandler's films like, you know, Happy

Gilmore Big Daddy Billy Madison Some of his comedy

some of his serious stuff serious stuff, too

And I don't know. I don't really hate Seth Rogen.

I He's fine and even I don't love everything

he does, but I thought I liked him and knocked

up and 40 -year -old Virgin can't really think

of anything he's done recently that comes. Oh,

the one where he was with James Franco. Oh, the

interview. Yes, that was really good. Yeah, I

didn't I didn't mind that. So I I don't really

I don't hate Sandler like I. I think he's better

than the comedies. He's making I haven't seen

pixels, but I think he was in the cobbler this

year with which I thought he was okay in the

movie itself wasn't that great, but Man, so I

don't really have either dislike for either of

these guys I would say I Guess I would I feel

like Seth Rogen's at least trying I feel like

Sandler's just getting a paycheck nowadays. It

seems like even in his movies. He has no He's

just kind of just there. So I would say move

on Seth Rogen or and let Sandler's career die.

Maybe you can stop making movies and go back

to making tapes like you did back in the day

or audio CDs. Fair enough. Greg, what would say

you? Yeah, I really agree with Dan. I liked the

interview with Seth Rogen. So that's a lot of

points for him. I haven't seen anything really

from Sandler lately that's really been getting

me excited at all. I haven't seen pixels, but

it doesn't look too promising. So I'm going to

kick Sandler out and stick with Seth Rogen. Oh,

looks like it looks like I'll be the odd man

out here. I would actually push Adam Sandler

through as bad as some of his movies have been

lately. I haven't personally seen pixels yet

either, but hurt is terrible. And I have seen.

Was it I think grown -ups was the exception that

was actually pretty good be a decent supporting

cast there But uh was the one funny people that

maybe horrible I get to see funny people. Yeah,

I did not like that one either but yeah, he just

seems like he's he's really slipping lately,

but I Still do have a lot of respect for him

and Seth Rogen. Maybe I'm just the only one like

this but I have never liked this guy in any role

that he's ever been in. He's just completely

obnoxious to me. I can't stand him for whatever

reason. I don't know really why, but... It's

just because you're a big Green Hornet fan and

he did a terrible job with that movie. Yes, that's

true, but also like observe and report. Now that

was a weird movie. That was so weird. That was

horrible. I Really even didn't like him in 40

year old virgin all the annoying like Hipster

like pothead roles. He's been in I don't know.

I just for whatever reason I just don't like

the guy maybe it's just personal preference,

but I would push Adam Sandler through Interesting.

How does it feel to be low man out? Huh? How's

it feel? All right, well I have another one here

it's too Again to people I think at least I like

both of these guys a lot to science -based guys

through the biggest I guess geeks in science

to maybe not when it comes to I guess when it

comes to like pop culture and science combined

and that's Bill Nye the science guy and Neil

deGrasse Tyson Yes, one I think who was very

much in our childhood and one that's kind of

come on lately, you know Neil deGrasse Tyson

and He does a lot of geek related stuff any ideas

of who you would say would go away and who would

I would go because I actually watched, they had

on Netflix recently, they have the old Bill Nye

the Science guy shows on and I actually watched

it recently. And it kind of killed it for me,

you know when you grow up and everything and

your opinions change Huge change for the most

part and so I really didn't care for it So I'm

gonna go with Neil deGrasse Tyson just cuz I'm

an adult to this point and he's kind of got more

of that adult Sensibility to to me at this point.

I love both of them though. So Have you ever

listened to his podcast start doc? I have not

listened to Star Talk, but I have heard and seen

him on different things, and I think he seems

like a fun guy. And he seems very knowledgeable

about about different things didn't like that.

He he demoted Pluto but stuff Yeah, I would I

would highly recommend start talk. It's pretty

good because he does a lot of Obviously talk

about astronomy and whatnot, but he also has

like comedians on too. So it's a it's really

good I enjoy it quite quite a bit Chuck don't

know if you have an opinion on this matter, but

do you have a do you have an idea who you would

choose? Yeah, I'm actually a big promoter of

Neil deGrasse Tyson. I really like that guy a

lot. I think he's not only a great narrator for

the shows he's on and stuff like that. He just

seems like a really nice man. You know what I

mean? He does. He just feels like you could like

sit down and have like have a cup of Joe with

him and everything would be good. Yeah. He would

have tea with your grandma and just like listen

to her day like like and he would do it happily.

You know, he's just a nice guy. But I don't know.

I think I'd push him through. I did watch Bill

Nye in Science Guy as a kid. Like Greg, I enjoyed

it much more back then. But I just, for whatever

reason, I kind of wonder about him because, like,

I've heard some things. I don't know if they're

true. I know some people have said he's kind

of a dick in real life. I have no evidence to

back that up at all, so I really don't know.

But just I'm a really big fan of Neil Grass Tyson,

so I would definitely push him on through. I

would make it a trifecta. They're both great.

But again, it's more like I said, I don't really

feel nigh I don't really listen to much what

he does anymore. Like I see him on shows in here

and there. He's funny He's still really smart

guy and he's obviously I think When you try to

make kids excited about science, that's awesome.

But like I said, I love star talk and I think

Neil deGrasse Tyson He's just got that soothing

voice and you know, you have the you have the

bow tie versus the mustache and I'm gonna go

with the mustache so But it comes down to you.

Mustache always wins. Facial hair is pretty awesome,

Dan. It really is. So maybe we'll make this the

last one. And let's go back to the world of sports

and talk about two other infamous athletes. And

two athletes both hailing in Cleveland currently.

And we have LeBron James against Johnny Football

himself, Johnny Manziel. Had a choice. Who would

you say needs to go away and who gets to keep

on going be in their sport? All -star, I guess

you would say That that's a tough one that's

that's actually really tough Greg do you have

anything to jump right on? Here's the thing.

I don't know that much about Johnny Manziel.

He haven't really seen him out on the field much.

So I have really no opinion of him. But LeBron

James, I just, it's once again, I feel like he

has this giant ego of how awesome he is. And

like I've been saying, that kind of kills things

for me. Like I do not like people with egos.

So I would definitely kick LeBron James out because

you don't see that much of Johnny. Manziel. So

I would rather get rid of LeBron James. And I

think Johnny Manziel is going to be out of the

league soon anyway. That's kind of might be true.

That might be true. Chuck, do you share Greg's

opinion? Are you going to go with Johnny football?

I think I share his opinion only because I think

Johnny Menzel is going to take himself out of

the equation, like you said. Don't get me wrong.

He's definitely annoying with the little money

symbol thing he does with his fingers. I think

that's incredibly arrogant, but, you know, and

I, part of it is he kind of does it to get the

other team riled up and get in their head a little

bit. It's kind of a form of trash talk, but it's

still like some of the other things he's done.

Like it's just. Like a lot of focuses on him.

You know what I mean? Like it's just, at least

like as much as I don't really care for LeBron,

I got to respect the guy. He is a ridiculously

good basketball player and he has earned. I'll

say most of the praise that he's gotten. The

guys won a couple of championships. So, I mean,

he's lost more than he's won. I got to stick

that in there. You know, Jordan six and oh, you

know, I'm just saying. But yeah, I I think at

least I have a little bit more respect for lebron

because he's a he's a hardcore player He's hardcore

baller. You know what I mean? Yeah But uh, yeah,

I think menzel's gonna remove himself from the

equation. I don't actually yeah I see I I would

go with I would rather see johnny menzel go away

I mean first of all his paint his face just looks

very punchable It just looks like he just needs

to get hit it just I don't I'm not a very violent

person But it's just like you look at him. It's

like he Even if you never saw him or ever heard

of him you walk into a room. You see that face

You're like that guy's kind of a douche Yeah

This is happening and I don't really I don't

mind like the whole decision thing with LeBron

was kind of ridiculous but I feel like with his

ego or what have you it he He at least backs

it up and I think at least as a Player per se

he he definitely isn't like say like a ball hog

like Kobe doesn't he does try to get his team

involved and stuff like that So I would say he's

more of a team player at that aspect of it. So

I would say Johnny Manziel go away and LeBron

James you can try to lose another championship

next year. So I think I think I made a I may

have misspoken I meant to say For Manziel to

go away. That's the whole point. I was driving

it with LeBron being more respectable. I think

I just totally spaced and didn't say it right.

But yeah, so we're curious to hear what people

thought of our little game today of our celebrity

death matches and I disagree or like I said,

any other matches we feel like we can do in the

future. We'd like to end each episode with a

letter and we actually have another letter here

from Zach Mervin. I apologize if I'm saying that

incorrectly. Kind of a shorter letter. He says

a lot here, but I'm just going to get down to

the The nitty gritty, um, Zach basically writes

into us and asks us if we had, I guess you might

have. Wrote this in before we had our last episode

when we talked about comic -con, but he asked

us What did you guys think of the stuff that

came out of comic -con about star wars to me?

That's what we should be doing more often instead

of doing a trailer Some sort of video like that.

It just shows how much love is put into a project

Honestly, if I never saw star wars before I would

immediately want to see it just because of that

trailer. JJ Abrams looks like he's doing things,

right? I'm super excited. Are your and there

are any other star wars movies you feel like

they should make besides the Rogue Nation or

the Rogue One movie that's coming out next year

as well. So a Star Wars question for us. I think

we talked about that a little last week, right?

The Star Wars, or at least two weeks ago when

we talked about the Comic -Con stuff. What's

Star Wars? Oh, it's that, okay. So let me break

it down for you. A long time ago, in a galaxy

far, far away. Bunch of stuff somehow in the

future was somehow in the future I don't know.

Did you guys see that? It was like the featurette

trailer that they it wasn't it was like kind

of a behind -the -scenes with Yes, did you guys

get chances? I did not see that. Yes. That was

pretty awesome I would I will have to send that

to you Greg I think you will enjoy and I agree

with him that it it doesn't give you much when

guarding the movie just it's like behind the

scenes and it just it looks awesome because everything's

Practical and it makes you feel like you're watching

them make the original film. So I agree. What

did you what did you think of the video, Chuck?

I liked it a lot. And I do agree. It looks to

me like JJ Abrams is kind of doing things the

right way. I think they're going more like. What

do you want to say, like the more puppeteer approach

to things like, obviously, there's going to be

some CGI in some places, but it's it's really

looking like the original trilogy to me, like

it has that same feel to it, that same tone sort

of. It was just cool seeing like the actors sort

of on the set, like, you know, not on camera,

though, like just kind of horsing around and

like talking a little bit. It was it was just

really neat to see it kind of made the whole

project endearing and really got you interested

in seeing it. Yeah, I agree and he's like Simon

Pegg has a cameo in it you see like he's playing

some random like creature in the background and

some movie So that's that's that's definitely

kind of cool great great I think maybe you could

probably approach the second question because

you've read a lot of the expanded universe stuff

Is there anything he mentions other Star Wars

movies you would like to see anything that comes

to mind that you may want to? Would love to see

a Darth Bane movie. That's the kind of this whole

start of the the Sith coming back into action

I loved those books So I'd really love to see

that and then idea I just had as soon as you

read that question has to do with a video game

That's Star War base Star Wars base that we all

love which is Star Wars Battlefront I'd love

to see something kind of like Star Wars mixed

with Saving Private Ryan or More like documentary

historical type of feel movie where you're kind

of down in the action with a couple of grunts

Fighting so I think that would be be kind of

interesting concept for Star Wars something that

they haven't really done before Yeah, that'd

be I heard with the rogue wars at rogue nation.

I forget the name of it I think we're all going

on that's coming out next year that it's like

someone said it's like Star Wars meets zero dark

30 so to see how that works out so maybe you

might get a little bit of that but yeah that

would be kind of like a boots on the ground type

of movie during the Clone Wars would be kind

of cool. Anything come to your mind Chuck? I

would love to see something that uh something

that the Expanded Universe did was they kind

of brought uh Darth Maul back with mechanical

legs because we know when uh you know characters

get appendages chopped off they could just get

mechanical ones that's how it works apparently

they they perform just as just as well but uh

there was there was a pretty cool story where

you know Darth Maul actually survives that encounter

with Obi Wan and Qui -Gon um back in the Phantom

Menace and like you know he sort of gets some

medical attention and some help and at this point

the Emperor sort of just casts him aside and

I don't know whether he assumes he's dead or

if he just writes him off because he's kind of

pursuing uh Anakin now but or actually he had

Dooku first but then Anakin uh but uh Darth Maul

sort of makes his own comeback and actually confronts

down the line Darth Vader and those two fight.

So I thought I think if they could work that

into a movie somehow like a make like a Clone

Wars period movie or something, I think that

would be pretty awesome. And could you do you

think you could do with Darth Vader? And I guess

I guess James Earl Jones is still alive. I guess

you could still do the voice, but. Yeah, I think

they could manipulate or somebody could come

close enough that they could do darth vader.

They could just make noises like No, you know

how that you know That on repeat over and over

again. Just cut the lines from like other movies

and just stick them in there, you know, exactly

Exactly. Yeah, I mean I i'm not the darth bane

trilogy Trilogy like craig mentioned. I thought

that I enjoyed those books. I would be all for

Seeing a movie based upon that or even like the

old republic. I love that original video game

So there's something back then and that's something

that's even longer ago yet. Somehow the technology

is basically the same. So that's I don't know

how that works for that. I did I did like that

with the dart with maven I think I forget his

name. It's been a raven I forget it's been a

long time since I played that game, but that

would be kind of cool I don't know much about

the expanding universe. So Would I just think

it'd be good if they got like a red or got away

from just doing characters We already know I

know there was rumor about doing like an obi

-wan movie and I don't know I like obi -wan,

but I don't necessarily think I need a movie

based upon I think people would really enjoy

I Forget his name, but I know he's a very popular

character. I'm gonna try and throw it out there.

It's a throne Something like that. There was

a trilogy about him I I don't think I ever really

got into that too much, but I know he has a very

popular following Yeah, so I think that would

be a good one to throw out there. It'd be kind

of cool to see other mean Tron, right? It'd be

cool to see them like approach other type of

genres within Star Wars kind of like Marvel,

you know, there was that zombie Star Wars book

that Would be oh, that was a really good book.

I don't know how exactly you could do that, but

that may be kind of I don't I doubt they would

ever Go that route, but you know, maybe like

an adventurous film or something like that. So

I don't know about like a Castaway type movie

but set in the Star Wars universe like someone

that's just lost somewhere in this really weird

place and they run into all these weird creatures

and weird situations, I'd be interesting that

I could see that yeah, like Gravity meets castaway

meets Star Wars. Yeah Perfect we million dollars

ideas all around and that person At the end you

find out there Darth Vader like I don't be weird.

I don't know copyright talking in circles Or

Boba Fett, I guess I guess it'd be cool way to

do the Boba Fett movie worries that maybe not

I'm not sure Alrighty, but who see the Boba Fett

movie where he's just stuck in the throat of

the Oh, uh the sarlacc sarlacc pit. Yeah, it's

like yeah thousand years, huh? It's just him

for a half an hour going You ever see that movie

buried with robin reynolds it'll be kind of like

that Just calling people. They'll be like, hey,

how's it going? Uh, not much stuck in the sarlacc

pit still Yeah, still got 999 years to go. So
