[instrumental music plays] The noon hour of madness and mayhem, the podcast.

Happy Friday, Peaches!

Happy Friday.

Oh!

We have made it. This week went by extremely fast. I am, uh-

What?

... very thankful for that.

[laughs] Speak for yourself.

Oh.

This week took forever for me.

I'm sorry. [laughs]

It was just dragging. Uh! But I think it's 'cause I was doing so much work around the house to get the place ready for the kids to come visit. So, you know, I'd work all day, then I'd get home and just work around the house all day long.

The only thing that bummed me out this week is that I got permanently banned from the

[laughs] Oh,

... Cedar subreddit.

No!

And I was told I'm a garbage interviewer.

Ah! Well, I got told I was talentless at one point this week.

Really?

Yeah. I'll tell you-

By who?

I'll tell you about it later.

Oh!

[laughs] It doesn't matter.

Talentless?

Talentless. [laughs]

I'm changing my show name to Peaches the Garbage Interviewer Party.

That's right. [laughs] Uh, but-

At least we're not like, uh... I was looking through, uh, these, some of these, uh, sports films. You know, I watched, uh, Coach Carter at my girlfriend's parent's place.

Mm-hmm.

I'm like, "This is an, an okay film to put on." Of course, there's a whole bunch of cussing and-

[laughs]

... and a lot of stuff, and I feel bad. But, um, I, I was looking at the other sports films, and I completely forgot about the movie Greater, uh-

Oh

... with, uh, it's, it's a story about Brandon Burlsworth, and he was this really fat, he, uh, really fat kid from the middle of nowhere. He wanted to become an NFL player. Or no, I think he, uh, he wanted to play football, so they made him lose a whole bunch of weight. He lost, like, 50 pounds. He was, like, 370 or something like that.

Mm-hmm.

Loses a whole bunch of weight, um, becomes a talented football player. Eventually, goes on to become a walk-on at the University of, uh, Arkansas, I believe.

Mm-hmm.

One of those schools. But then he, uh, gets drafted by the Colts. 11 days later, dies in a car accident.

Geez!

That's the real-life story.

Wow.

And-

That sucks.

Yeah, uh, and it's like, at what point... Like, when, after you pass, wouldn't you be so mad? Like, "I, I worked my butt off for this, and this is what happens to me?"

Oh, man, that's terrible. You never know what life's gonna throw at you.

Yeah.

That's why you gotta live every day to the fullest, everybody.

And we're in here entertaining people.

That's right.

Wasting our lives.

Not-

Being called talentless and-

[laughs] That's right, talentless. [laughs]

... uh, you know, a garbage interviewer and all of that. And how we're not funny, and how we're both liberal for some reason, even though I'm getting la- I'm getting labeled as liberal for some reason.

Just 'cause you use Reddit.

Yeah, I use Reddit. What an idiot.

Like-

[laughs]

... it's, it's just a social media and news website.

People are stupid. Like, that's all I gotta say, is people-

[laughs]

... are dumb.

You are correct, Peaches. [laughs] Uh! Well, you know what? I think you do a good job interviewing, Peaches.

And I think you're very talented, Victor.

Thanks, Peaches. You're a good pal during the holiday season. And you, you mentioned, uh, watching movies with your, um, your girlfriend's parents.

Uh-huh.

You know, if you're looking for a good Christmas movie, don't forget that Terrifier 3 is a great Christmas film-

Oh!

... you could watch [laughs] with the family.

I, I honestly want to do something like that where I could have their reaction, but I don't wanna traumatize them, you know?

Yeah, and terrorize their mind.

I already showed Aubrey and her brother and his wife, uh, Howard Stern's Private Parts.

And that's-

And-

... not that bad.

No, it's bad.

It, it, I haven't-

There's a lo-

... seen it for a long time.

There's a lot of, uh, private parts, uh-

There-

... in that movie.

There is nudity.

And there's a lot of, uh, you know, just, uh, stuff that, if you grew up conservatively here in the area, it would shock you.

Show 'em Requiem for a Dream.

Sure.

[laughs] Yeah. Another feel-good holiday classic.

Let's move into some Schindler's List. Let's do, uh, what, uh, what's that Jojo Rabbit?

Oh! Yeah.

You know that? There's a big plot twist in that movie-

Mm-hmm

... that really shocked me when I saw it in theaters.

Y- I didn't see it in the theater, but I think we thought it was like a kid's movie.

I thought it'd be funny, too.

And, uh, it's a pretty dark film.

Yeah. [laughs]

Absolutely. So, yeah, if you're looking for a great list of, uh, uplifting films, I'd be glad to help you out, buddy. And

just make sure to let me know how it goes. Oh, I got the hiccups.

I, for some reason, every single time Eddington gets brought up, I think of Paddington the Bear.

Mm-hmm.

And I'm like, "What's so bad about this movie?" Uh, there was one, I, I... Did I screenshot it?

Edding- Eddington's another very uplifting, fun film. [laughs]

Wh- did I screenshot it? I think the guy who directed the movie was like, "If you don't like Eddington, you suck." [laughs] Like, I think he said something like that.

Yeah, John Waters.

That's, yeah, yeah. [laughs]

Yeah. Yeah, that's right. Or, or he said, "I hate you."

Yeah, that's what it was!

"If you don't like this movie, I hate you."

And wa- was he the director, or who was he?

Uh, no, Ari Aster directed it.

Okay, that's who it was, Ari Aster. But who's John Waters?

He's, like... Let me bring up his Wikipedia. He's, uh-

I just found that hilarious. It's like, "If you don't like Eddington, I hate you." It reminded me of, uh, Talladega Nights. "If you don't chew Big Red..." I can't say the rest of it, but you know.

Yeah, I mean, he's, he's made movies, John Waters. He's, uh, been in a number of movies. I don't know what his most famous movie is. Let, let's take a look at, uh, what he's best known for according to, uh, Wikipedia. Let's see here. He's directed movies like, uh, Serial Mom. Did you ever see that?

No.

That's a pretty fun movie. Uh, Cecil B. Demented. Um, and then he was in movies like Pink Flamingos and Hairspray. Uh, he, he's been in a ton of stuff. He's been around forever.

Cool.

So, yeah, Eddington's, it's... I liked it. I liked it.

I'm gonna adopt his, uh, mantra. If you're a part of the, uh, Cedar subreddit, I hate you.

[laughs]

And you suck.

Hey, Peaches, did you see this list that Loudwire put up of the big four rock and metal artists of 2025?

No, I haven't.

Okay. Uh, if you had to pick four, these would be the artists that, let's see. Let me see how they describe it here. "Had a large impact on heavy music in some way during the year." So, the, the big four.

People are not gonna wanna hear these, these two, uh, that I, I wanna say right now.

Okay.

Because, uh, they, they would say they're not metal. But Poppy, for sure-

Okay

... and Baby Metal.

[laughs] Okay. That, that's two decent guesses. Any other guesses? If you had to pick the top-

The, the-

... the big four-

Big four

... rock and metal artists that had the biggest impact on rock and metal in 2025.

Poppy, Baby Metal, I'm trying to figure out. Maybe, hmm. I mean, Sleep Token, and probably President.

President had a pretty good impact. They-

Yeah.

They blew up pretty big.

And a lot of people are saying this is coworker metal, when they-

Coworker metal?

Yeah, that, that's... I told you about that whole thing, about the-

Mm-hmm.

... industry plant, coworker metal.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's right, you did say that.

Anytime someone has, like, a basic artist in their Spotify Wrapped, they go, "Oh, that's co- coworker music." And...

Happens with ev- every band that gets popular, you know? People just get toxic.

Well, people are saying that, you know, President is just... L- l- l- like, they were planted there, they, they didn't really have much experience in the industry. But I'm like, Charlie Simpson's been in the music industry for, like, 15 plus years.

Yeah, he has lots of connections.

Yeah.

And they did a great job marketing this mysterious band before they came out.

I think people are just fatigued by the whole masked anonymous band thing.

I think so. Yeah. I mean, there, there are a lot of them out there today, but, uh, I don't know what's working for 'em, so [laughs] what do you do?

Yeah. He has a lot of money.

Okay. So you guessed Poppy, Baby Metal, uh, Sleep Token, and President. Okay. Um, you got zero out of four, according to Loudwire. So-

Well, what did Loudwire say?

T- throw out a couple other guesses. Let's see if you can get even one of them, 'cause I would not have guessed any of them.

'Cause I... my mind ke- I, I keep wanting to say Vaio Nova had a great year. They were probably the breakthrough band of the year.

Yeah. But, but-

Um

... still pretty-

Yeah

... pretty unknown.

Pretty wild they had a great year too. Um, Architects.

Okay. Uh, one of 'em had a big impact because of their... I wouldn't have guessed this person because they didn't really do a lot musically, but they did... Their passing was a major, major event.

Ozzy?

Ozzy. They got Ozzy on their list.

On the best for 2025?

For the big four who had the biggest impact on rock and metal in 2025.

I would say Ozzy, um, has had a crazy impact for many years, but I don't [laughs] I don't think he was-

Yeah

... all that crazy... I mean, he had the big, you know, back to Birmingham festival thing.

Yeah, and I mean, he was, you know, definitely very celebrated after he passed away.

He's ce- he was celebrated for quite some time before that too.

Yeah. So, I mean, maybe had an emotional impact on, uh, rock and metal in, uh, 2025?

Oh, you know who also had a crazy, crazy year? Yungblud.

Yungblud is on their list. I don't personally think Yungblud had as big of an impact on rock and metal as, um, Sleep Token or Bad Omens or Poppy or Baby Metal. Um-

Yungblud is trying to, like, bridge the gap between the old and the new.

Yeah.

'Cause he's... he did that whole thing with Aerosmith, that new, that new EP.

Yeah. But he... I don't think he's broken through into the minds of rock and metal fans yet.

He's more so pop rock.

Yeah.

But yeah, he's, he's very successful. I mean, his whole tour's sold out.

Yeah, yeah. But as far as impacting rock and metal, I, I wouldn't have guessed him. So, so you know, you got Ozzy and you got Yungblud.

So it's very mainstream. What do they have? Jelly Roll next? [laughs]

No, no Jo-

He lost a lot of weight in 2025.

[laughs] Um, this next band

had a big tour. I would never have named this band as having a big impact on rock and metal-

Had a big tour?

... in 2025. They had a big tour. That's basically what they did.

Nine Inch Nails.

Nope. Not Nine Inch Nails. Nine Inch Nails at least put out new music, you know?

Yeah, but it wasn't necessarily, like, for themselves, it was just for the Tron movie.

Yeah.

I wonder how much they got paid for that.

I bet a lot.

Yeah [laughs].

[laughs]

I'm trying to think who had a great tour.

They've been around for a really long time. But-

Metallica?

Nope. Nope.

Limp Bizkit.

Nope. Limp, Limp Bizkit put out new music. This band did not put out any new music.

Oh. Um, hmm.

Just had a big tour.

I'm drawing a blank.

My Chemical Romance.

Oh. Really?

Yeah. Um, I would never have put them on the list.

Okay.

You know, they... That's all they did, was have a big tour.

Yeah.

And see, I looked at this list already, and I still can't remember who's on the list, because-

That last song sucked. That Foundations of Decay song.

Yeah.

That was horrible.

Uh, yeah, again-

That came out in 2022.

[laughs]

I think. Like, it came out when, when I first started here.

Okay. This next band

did put out new music this year.

Mm-hmm.

Um, and they did something unique with their lineup.

W- I Prevail?

Nope. And, uh-

Did they kick somebody out?

I think they played here too.

Oh.

I think they did play here, if I remember right.

Foo Fighters [laughs].

No. No, not Foo Fighters.

I was trying to think of-

I think they did. Maybe not, maybe it was in Salt Lake. Yes.

They did something weird with their lineup.

Did something weird with their lineup.

They kick somebody out?

They brought somebody back.

The Foo Fight- all I thought was about the Foo Fighters.

Nope.

Um...

And they did put out a new album.

All I can think about is the Josh Freese stuff.

Three Days Grace.

Oh.

Did they play here?

[laughs]

No? Yeah?

No. 'Cause they got the two s-

No, I'm drawing a blank. They played in Boise.

Was it Boise?

Yeah.

Yeah, with the two-singer lineup?

Yeah, I went there.

Yeah.

They opened up for Disturbed.

Okay, that's right. Th-

Back in February.

That's right.

Yeah. Did they play here, though?

Yeah. I don't know. Let's, let's Google this. [laughs] We've seen so many bands. [laughs] Three Days Grace, Idaho Falls.

I thought they did.

No, no, they played the Idaho Center. Yeah. They did not play here.

'Cause, uh, I, I would have remembered if we saw Three Days Grace at the Mountain America Center.

Yeah. Now, uh, maybe, oh, I'm thinking of Saint Ansonia. They played at one point.

True, yeah.

Yeah.

And that, that's when I wrongfully tagged... So, you tell me to go take a picture with the guys in Saint Ansonia. I take a picture, some random drunk lady comes into the frame and-

[laughs]

... t- like, joins the photo. And then I thought it was Adam Gontier that I was talking to. It wasn't him.

[laughs]

So I tagged him as such.

Yeah, uh, th- that's such a weird big four of rock and metal. Three Days Grace, Yungblud, My Chemical Romance, and Ozzy. Now, Ozzy, like you said, he's probably had the biggest impact on metal of, like, anyone.

Yeah.

But, I, I don't know, as far as bands that did big things in rock and metal this year.

I, you still gotta think, babymetal put out one of the craziest albums. They, they teamed up with a lot of different artists.

Yeah, they played, and they were doing amphitheater tours, big, huge tours.

Yeah, yeah.

Um, you know, Sleep Token is a no-brainer.

They had the craziest tour, I would say, of the year. Like, nobody outdid what they did.

Oh, yeah. Every show sold out. You know, they blew up massive. They, you know, had, like, chart topping... I mean, their, their numbers are crazy.

Yeah.

And it's the same with Bad Omens putting out new music, and-

But Poppy also had a crazy year, I would think.

She did, and she was doing all those collaborations with various artists, and bringing people together. And, uh, I, I don't know, I can think of so many more bands than those four. I thought that list was so crazy. I wonder if they wrote it just, you know, it's, what do they call it, rage bait?

Oh, yeah.

I bet it's rage bait.

I'm asking ChatGPT, "Who are the big four that had the biggest impact on rock and metal in 2025?"

They'll probably scrape the, uh, Loudwire article and give you some of the, the same results, 'cause that's how AI works.

Yeah, "Searching the web. Searching for 2025 rock and metal biggest." Okay. Oh, this one, it gives me Ghost.

Ghost did a, yeah, they put out a new album, did a massive arena tours. They've moved up really big.

[laughs]

Ghost had a big impact.

It gives me Ghost, then babymetal.

Baby- it gave you babymetal?

And then it gives me Deafheaven. [laughs]

Deafheaven? What?

Because of the, uh, album, Lonely People With Power Making it to Consequences Number One.

I need to listen to the new Deafheaven album, apparently.

It, it's so funny, people like to make fun of Knocked Loose, but then they listen to Deafheaven. Like, Dea- like, the riffs are there, the drum b- the drums are great, the production's awesome, but then you get the vocals, and it sounds like some guy screaming his head off, black metal style, in the back part of the room away from the microphone.

Yeah. I- in black metal mixing is v- very strange sometimes.

And it's weird how he sings, because he only says one word at a time.

Yeah.

Like, it, like, that sounds stupid, but he's like, you, you see the full lyric.

[laughs]

But it takes him forever to go through it, 'cause he says one word every couple of seconds.

I mean, I, I like their stuff, but I didn't listen to the new album, so.

So it, it goes, yeah, Ghost, babymetal, Deafheaven, then Turnstile.

I guess Turnstile, uh, did, you know, a, they had a pretty good album. Um-

I thought the album was great. I mean, I thought, I liked that sound. I liked the, the vocals. Um, but, you know, if I were a Die Hard hardcore Turnstile fan, and I liked their early stuff, I would be like, "What happened to my favorite band?" type of, type of guy.

Yeah. And I wouldn't say that Turnstile or Deafheaven had a big impact on rock and metal.

No.

You know, they weren't all over the news constantly, like-

Presidents, babymetal, Poppy, and, uh, Sleep Token were the big four that-

Yeah

... were always in the news, n- good or bad.

Yeah. Weird list, dude.

Yeah.

Yeah, again, I think Loudwire was just rolling with the rage bait on that one, 'cause, it, just bizarre. Wonder what they did for, like, last year? I don't know. Anyway, uh, you suck, Loudwire. This is the noon hour of madness and mayhem. I'm Victor.

I'm Peaches.

And we're talking lists. We're doing the best of 2025 according to a variety of things. Uh, Peaches mentioned the 20 best movies of 2025 according to Rolling Stone. I'm interested to see what they got and how many of these I've seen.

I didn't see many, uh, new releases. Um, I, I've been kind of revisiting the classics.

Yeah, yeah.

Um, revisiting the greatest movies of all time. Uh, Aubrey has never seen Home Alone I or II, so we watched both of those.

Did she like them?

Yeah, she thought, uh, all she thought, it was, she saw this post about how Kevin McCallister's a psychopath-

[laughs] He is

... and she was agreeing with that whole thing.

[laughs]

'Cause, uh, he shot a dude point blank with a BB gun.

[laughs]

He, like, purposely booby-trapped not only, uh, that house, but also the, uh, the brother's house in New York.

Yes.

And overall, would have killed two people.

Oh, yeah. I-

He threw bricks at a guy's head.

Yeah, dude, there's, uh, some videos on YouTube that show what would've really happened if, uh, like, say, you got hit in the head with a full can of paint on a rope [laughs].

Oh, yeah. They, they got hit in the face with a lead pipe.

[laughs]

No, and like a full-on, the pipe, then they, they also fall, like, a whole story down and land in the basement on their backs.

Oh, yeah.

They would've died immediately upon impact of the pipe to the face.

[laughs]

It comes swinging down. Their, their skulls would've been crushed in, and then they would've been massacred when they landed.

Oh, yeah. Uh, Home Alone, I think is the, the best Christmas movie. It's my favorite.

What if there's an alternate universe where Kevin McCallister turns into Terrifier-

[laughs]

... or Art the Clown?

Maybe that's what happened [laughs].[laughs] All right, Rolling Stones' list here. Coming in at number 20, Weapons, a movie that I have not finished yet.

I, I have not seen a second of it.

I watched the first 30 minutes, and I think we had to go to bed, and then we just keep forgetting to turn it back on. But I heard-

Me and Aubrey do this thing-

... it's really good

... where, like, we'll, we'll fight over what to watch. She wants to watch romance and all this crap-

[laughs]

... and I, I wanna see scary. And she's, like, terrified of horror movies, so I have to watch those by myself, but then also I rarely have time by myself to sit down and watch just a movie.

Yeah, me either. That's why it took me so long to watch Eddington. You know, I, I finally got the flu [laughing] and that's when I-

Well, you also, like, just fell asleep in the movie theater [laughs].

I did fall asleep a few times watching that movie, even though it's not a boring movie. I don't know why I fell asleep.

Oh, well.

It, it's good. Uh, coming in at number 19, Frankenstein, which I've been meaning to watch on, uh, Netflix, from Guillermo del Toro. Uh, he makes... everything he makes is good, so-

Did they make him sexy like Nosferatu?

Uh, I don't think so.

Is there a Frankenstein explicit scene that comes out?

I haven't, I haven't seen Nosferatu either.

He's just naked? [laughs]

[laughs] Uh, I haven't heard of this one, Caught by the Tides. Um-

Are we gonna get a lot of just o- these, like, foreign films that came out this year that-

There's probably-

... nobody really knows?

... gonna be a number of those in here.

What was that one year, the, the, the, the Grammy- not the Grammys, the, uh, Oscars, where it was like, oh, The Shape of Water and, like, Moonlight and all these, like, weird artsy-fartsy films?

Yeah, those... that's generally what the Oscars do are pretty artsy films, but whatever won, won, I think it was last year, Annora, I think it was called-

I have no idea what that is

... that movie was awesome. Like, I, I wa- I don't wanna say anything about it.

Okay.

'Cause, uh-

Well, you said, you said The Substance was awesome, and I thought that was one of the weirdest, like, fever dream movies of all time.

I really enjoyed The Substance. Becca hasn't seen that. We need to watch it.

Oh, boy.

Um, number 17, The Phoenician Scheme.

Oh, see, like, another title that sounds artsy-fartsy, hipster, and-

Yeah

... silly.

A lot of these I haven't heard of, like this next one, 16.

The Phoenician Scheme. Have you seen it?

[laughs]

Its camera work is stupendous.

[laughs] Let's see, we got, uh, On Becoming a Guinea Fowl.

Ooh.

That's number 16 here.

Wow, I can imagine the guy who says that's his favorite movie now.

[laughs]

That film nerd that has the- it looks like Boogie 2988.

[laughs] Number 15, haven't heard of this one either, Orwell Two Plus Two Equals Five.

Wow, Orwell, huh?

Mm-hmm. Uh, Best Wishes to All at number 14.

Are we going down this whole list?

Yep. Yeah, we're gonna go through the whole dang thing.

I bet, I bet listeners are loving this-

I don't care.

... you talentless DJ.

[laughs]

[laughs]

We're just reading the list, dude.

I'm a, I'm a garbage interviewer.

Seems like I mighta heard of this one. Universal Language, number 13. I don't know, though. I don't know. We talked about Eddington earlier. That's at number 12.

I know nothing of these movies. You're, you're just saying random crap. You could be going off a list of sh- from ChatGPT of, like, just-

[laughs]

... made up pretentious movie titles.

[laughs] Well, you, you know that Eddington's real, 'cause, uh, I've, I've talked about that. Uh, number 11, Peter Hujar's Day. You heard of that one?

No, that sounds-

[laughs]

Again... [laughs]

Number 10, Sentimental Value. Number nine, Marty Supreme. Dude, I haven't heard of any of these. Number eight, Sorry Baby. Seven, No Other Choice. Six, It Was Just an Accident. Five, Nouvelle Vague. Four, Train Dreams.

How about Midnight in the House of Unfinished Dreams?

[laughs]

Or, Where the Window Forgets to Reflect Me, huh?

Num-

Anatomy of an Echo: Part One.

Have you heard of number three, Peaches?

The Boy Who Tried to Swallow the Sun.

[laughs]

Those are all made up names I just had ChatGPT come up with.

Have you heard of number three, Black Bag?

Black Bag? No.

[laughs] What do you mean?

I've heard of Black Phone. Is that too much of a normie film for this list?

[laughs] I'm barely film.

The Black Phone 2?

Number two, Hamnet.

Oh, not Hamlet?

No, it's Hamnet.

Hamnet.

Hamnet.

Well, what is Hamnet about? Let me look this up.

Well, "Meet the Shakespeares, Chloe Zhao's rigorous moving and altogether transcendent take on Maggie O'Farrell's novel."

This movie looks stupid!

[laughs]

William Shakespeare and his wife Agnes celebrate the birth of their son, Hamnet.

[laughs]

However, when tragedy strikes and Hamnet dies at a young age, it inspires Shakespeare to write his timeless masterpiece, Hamlet. "Wow, my son's dead. Let me write a boring play." [laughs] Like, what is this?

All right, what's gonna be number one?

Look at the movie poster. Look how, look how stupid [laughs] this looks. Oh, let's hold each other.

Hamnet.

And we're in the middle of foliage. Uh, who, Jennifer- uh, Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal.

Yeah, I've, I've only heard of, I, I think two movies on this list, Peaches.

Only, only in theaters this Thanksgiving.

[laughs]

I just imagine some loser by himself, "I have no family 'cause they all hate me 'cause of my bad music ta- or my bad, my bad movie taste-

[laughs]

... so I need to go to the movies on Thanksgiving and watch Hamnet." [laughs]

[laughs] I, I've never heard of number one either. One Battle After Another.

That's the one with Leonardo DiCaprio, I think.

Okay, okay, let's see. Um-

Was... is that the one-

Yes, he's in it.

Yeah, my, my dad said it was one of the worst movies he's ever seen.

[laughs] Really? Well, Rolling Stones... dude, the Rolling Stone lists are always so bad. They really are.

Yeah, they'll, they'll, they'll be like, "Num- like, top 10 rock bands of the modern age. Number one, Aretha Franklin."

[laughs]

Like, where did that come from?

Yeah, just outta curiosity, I just Googled best movies of 2025, and like, every list has that One Battle After Another as the best movie of the year. I'm gonna have to watch it now. It's probably a movie I'll like, huh? [laughs] 'Cause I like artsy films.

I, I feel like it's one of those three hour long Leonardo DiCaprio movies where you're like, "Okay, this is just all over the place." You really don't know what's going on. Like, I hated, I hated with a passion, Inception.

Really?

I thought it was one of the worst pieces of crap I have ever seen in my entire life.

[laughs]

I, I just think it's... he made this story so c- confusing and advanced for no reason whatsoever.

[laughs]

Right? Like, that's the whole... like, i- why, why would you do such a thing?

[laughs] I don't know, to be artsy, Peaches.

Well, like The Wolf of Wall Street, we get it. He's a scumbag.

[laughing] Yeah, it's very straightforward.

Three hours, three and a half hours, you've got Margot Robbie showing off her body. Oh, let's attract the teenage boy crowd with that one.

[laughing] Uh, you predicted the length of one battle after another being three hours.

I bet, yeah, I bet you there's an intermission.

[laughs]

I bet you Quentin Tarantino's gonna be like, "Oh, that's my favorite movie of all time."

[laughing] It's two hours and 42 minutes. So you were close. [laughs]

The cinema needs to be an event.

[laughing] Oh, Quentin Tarantino been cracking me up, dude. That-

Is there feet in there?

[laughing]

People are really mad at Quentin Tarantino about that Paul Dano thing.

Oh, yeah.

They are very upset.

I mean, imagine like Paul Dano just gets mad. Like I was, I think I talked about that on the show. I was just like if I was Paul Dano and I saw Quentin Tarantino, I'd be like, "Wanna call me weak? Punch him in the jaw."

[laughing]

Right, right there.

Punch him in the face.

You're getting knocked out by my weak punch there, there, Quentin.

[laughing] Oh, come on. What other lists could we look up? The best... We've looked at movies.

The worst directors of all time. Number one, Quentin Tarantino. [laughs]

Oh, come on. He's, he's good. His movies are good. You don't like Quentin Tarantino movies?

No, I like his, some of his movies.

Oh, okay.

I'm not gonna watch like Once Upon a Time in Hollywood or the, uh-

Why? It's good.

Or, um, what's it called? The Hateful Eight.

That's a good movie.

That seems like a bore-fest.

And it's really long.

It has an intermission like-

[laughs]

I need to take a break from watching a movie?

[laughs] It's good, especially the extended cut that's like four hours.

Oh, even worse.

Do you like movies where people talk the whole time, Peaches? Just stuck in a cabin talking? That's The Hateful Eight. Stuck in a cabin, talking for just hours.

Let's cast, let's cast Jeff Bridges for no reason.

[laughs]

And everyone's gotta have Samuel L. Jackson, every Quentin Tarantino movie.

What could be the worst movie we could make in our heads? Like what could be the, like what's a very boring, mundane plot, huh?

I mean, it doesn't get much more boring than sitting in a cabin and talking for four hours.

And then let's have the most obnoxious cast. Let's put in there, uh, Dwayne Johnson. Let's put in there Kevin Hart, Pedro Pascal.

You don't like Pedro Pascal?

He's so annoying.

Why don't you like Pedro Pascal?

It's just the... Let's, let's make this like 50-plus-year-old guy with a mustache. Let's say he's sexy and have him model everything.

[laughs] He's in Edington.

Is he? Oh, no kidding.

He's in Edington.

I would fall asleep too.

Have you watched The Last of Us?

No.

The series?

No.

You should watch it. Have you played the games?

No, I can't because it was a PlayStation exclusive.

Oh, that's right.

I couldn't at the time. Well, now I have a PC. Now I'm part of the whole PC master race thing, you know, so.

That's right.

Maybe I could, uh, play that series.

It's one of the best video game series ever, for sure.

I get kind of scared when I play zombie games.

[laughs]

Yeah, the worst is when, uh, Aubrey's over and I'll be sitting there playing like Dead Island 2. And no offense to Aubrey, but she walks around just like... So like the whole apartment is just moving kind of. And so I'm sitting there and then she'll get... she'll be on the beanbag, you know, kind of just not making much noise. And then she'll get up to go get water and then I'll hear these footsteps and I'll jolt and I'll like... I think it's a zombie behind me.

[laughs] Yeah, when I would play Resident Evil VR, you know, with the headphones on. So you're like totally immersed in the game. Every once in a while, one of the cats would like brush up against me. Ah!

You'd kick the cat across the room? Poor Koopa.

Yeah, sorry, Koopa. You're, you're a good boy most of the time. Sometimes deserve a good boot, but... [laughing]
