Enjoying it so far. The opening song made me laugh: "mom's roast, fishing with dad" - I wondered if it was going to summarize the whole movie 😊

Thanks for the link - I wasn't having any luck on Internet Archive

I told Steve we had to watch this last night after listening, we got about 45 min in before he said ‘we need to take a break, there’s simply too much happening in too short a time. It needs a little breathing room!’ So far, I’m digging it and glad y’all rec’d. The mom all bandaged up is such a funny, wild look.

Had it on my list, found it on Internet Archive but not sure if it’s the full thing.

Do an episode about Nothing Lasts Forever. It has both Bill Murray and Dan Ackroyd in supporting roles. The film was completed but never released. It used to be on YouTube.

For some reason I thought the original Meet the Parents was a French movie?? I’ve had Radioactive Dreams in my watch later on youtube for a long time after y’all mentioned it wayyyy way back! Is now finally the time to watch?? (I’ll try) Love all these new shows, thanks guys!

Great comparison!

Steven Trotter

This film gave me big time After Hours vibes, which is great because it's been a long time since I've been anything that matches that tension of just what the fuck this poor guy is going to have to endure next

Caleb Clements

These 2 new shows have been fantastic!

I have a little personal anecdote concerning Ken Jeong if you can ever call it that. Around the time of The Hangover, when Jeong was really starting to rise to the height of his ubiquity, a friend and I were having a discussion that accidentally revealed we had a difference in opinion over the guy. He tried to convince me he was actually a lot funnier than he was in the few things I had seen him in and then played this for me. https://youtu.be/NQXDtPswocs?si=KzEBptp6_b-2A7UL As it played before my granite expression, I knew then we would only be so close as friends, which probably says more about me than him.

Why ryan is referring to ken jong’s award winning performance from fools paradise.

Comedy Central did indeed play Relative Strangers a lot!!

Esoterica aside, you guys are probably better at what you are doing than you realize. I NEVER give people money over the Internet, are you kidding? But you are the only one's outside of RedLetterMedia I ever have and you outclassed them years ago. Please, please stay true to yourselves, don't listen too much to the comment section, and never, ever start pulling your punches.
