The holidays are just around the corner, so Mary Jo & Chris welcome very special guest Alonso Duralde, podcaster, film critic and author of the new and revised book Have Yourself a Movie Little Christmas, to discuss Christmas movies in detail, including Die Hard, White Christmas, Holiday Inn, Gremlins, Batman Returns, and a slew of Netflix movies starring Lindsay Lohan, for an all-new Chit-Chat & Tidbits!

It’s Matt time of the month, in which Associate Producer Matt Reiser secretly compiles an hour of television for Mary Jo & Chris to watch for an all-new Movie Jo Night! This month, Matt chooses an episode of the bizarre ABC superhero show Automan, starring Desi Arnaz Jr. as a computer programmer who ostensibly sucks and Chuck Wagner as Automan, a superhero with Ken doll hair.

Mary Jo & Chris present The Mary Jo Pehl Show’s Fourth Halloween Special, which finds the duo in full costume watching another 30 minute reel of weird Halloween ads Associate Producer Matt found, and then showcasing viewer Halloween costumes past and present. Plus: news about November’s happenings!

Mary Jo and Chris watch the 1972 made-for-TV movie The People starring Kim Darby and William Shatner, about a teacher who takes up the worst teaching gig in history and gets increasingly annoyed that all the kids are total weirdos who think kazoos are evil or something. Plus: CANDY GIVEAWAY!

Season Five of The Mary Jo Pehl Show is here, and Mary Jo & Chris are finally indulged by viewers to present the very first Mary Jo Pehl Show Spelling Bee, featuring special guest host Greg Triggs, and a panel of competitors including Mary Jo, Chris, Judy Heneghan, Deana Dolphin, Kevin McLaughlin, Jarrett Melendez, Jason Schommer, Tom Winner and Jackie Kashian. Plus: unboxing videos, Movie Jo Night polls, and more!

Rejoice! Mary Jo & Chris have worked out their differences with the help of several thousand lawyers to host an all-new Chit-Chat & Tidbits in The Dumb Clubhouse! This month, the duo discuss still existing post-rapture, MJ being called a “Karen,” her recent garage shows, being an omnivert, Chris’s parents’ wedding anniversary, The Carpenters… Space Encounters, and so much more!

Here’s the pre-show playlist on Apple Music.

It’s the first Movie Jo Night in The Dumb Clubhouse, and Mary Jo & Chris leave it up to Associate Producer/known madman Matt Reiser to assemble an hour of television of them to watch! Matt settles on The Carpenters’ bizarre 1978 variety show, “The Carepenters… Space Encounters,” which is about as strange and painful as it sounds. Plus: candy giveaway!

Plus: an adorable unboxing video, viewers decide on the theme for the Season 5 premiere, and Mary Jo & Chris workshop names for their new membership.

It’s another fantabulous Movie Jo Night with Mary Jo and Chris, as they duo sit down to watch the 1974 “disaster” film SKYWAY TO DEATH for the very first time along with viewers. Whatever you think the death count for this movie might be, we guarantee you’re wrong.

Mary Jo & Chris reconvene in the membership formerly known as The Mary Jo Pehl Show Clubhouse to catch up on Linda’s recent legal action, the Christmas in July Secret Santa, the joy of mail-order, recent trips to movie theaters, the Minneapolis Fringe Festival, hugging Pedro Pascal, and much, much more!

It’s the end of an era, or error (depending on how you look at it), as Mary Jo, Chris, and viewers pay tribute to The Mary Jo Pehl Show’s dearly departed employee, Linda. Plus: a shocking development regarding The Mary Jo Pehl Show Clubhouse!

Against their better judgement, Mary Jo & Chris allow Associate Producer Matt Reiser to prepare an hour of television for them to watch, culminating in a screening of the final episode of the Planet of the Apes TV series, starring one Roddy McDowall! Featuring a disturbing amount of ancillary content involving apes dressed like humans.

Mary Jo and Chris meet up on a Friday evening to spill tea and share some hot goss, including Frank’s upcoming move to Minneapolis, storage units, Linda’s recent quitting and her upcoming going away party, how much they both hate AI art, a recent run-in Mary Jo had with a supermarket cashier, Superman and idiots, and lots of stuff!

Mary Jo and Chris fear Linda is about to quit The Mary Jo Pehl Show, so they do what’s necessary in order to make sure The Mary Jo Pehl Show Clip Show is completed in time. Plus: an important announcement regarding July’s Mary Jo Pehl Show!

Mary Jo & Chris meetup to watch the 1972 scream of a film, THE SCREAMING WOMAN, starring Olivia de Havilland as a woman who screams, Ed Nelson as a man who murders, and a bunch of other people who simply do not believe anything the she screams. It’s quite frustrating, honestly, but makes for an excellent Movie Jo Night.

Mary Jo & Chris give Associate Producer Matt Reiser free reign to create a 30 minute reel of the most bizarre videos he could find against their better judgement, and the results are spectacular. Plus: Mary Jo & Chris provide updates on the Summer of Pehl, and settle themes for the next couple months of The Mary Jo Pehl Show!

Mary Jo & Chris are tasked with watching the 1974 made-for-TV movie Planet Earth, starring an increasingly balding John Saxon and written by an increasingly horny Gene Roddenberry. Fear not: Mary Jo & Chris are here to pick apart just how bizarre and misguided this flick is.

It’s Friday and Mary Jo & Chris are here to party their faces off in The Mary Jo Pehl Show Clubhouse! Preceded by a guest DJ set from Linda, Mary Jo & Chris catch up with viewers, discuss more grammatical pet peeves, discuss a kitten Mary Jo met named Pearl Forrester at a cat cafe in Minneapolis, watch video of yet another fight that happened outside Chris’s window, and the importance of wearing a helmet.

Transcript: Herbert F. Schubert. It's a gimmick. Herbert F. Schubert and his star-parade ballet. Situation out of hand. Don't make a move, don't make a sound. Break the rules, follow the plan. Can't let them know we're all around. You'll never know just who you'll meet. Hold the line, you gotta keep the beat. Workout, feel the heat. Workout, feel the heat. Workout, feel the heat. Come on, everybody, feel the heat. Hi, I'm Tiana. Temperature rising in every place. Look out, workout. Colin Brown had an idea. This is it. A thief-catching device activated by a hairspring trigger which shoots out an entangling anti-getaway net. Like so. In action, it works like this. The bandit makes his getaway fast. He's stolen some fight money stamps. But, unknown to him, Mr. Brown has heard the alarm bell. He's ready for action. It's not as easy as it might seem to get out of a hundred square feet of nylon netting. A simple, cheap and effective little gadget. An English version of Dragnet. Honestly, love, as if I haven't got enough to do. All these blooming doors to cope with. Might get them to trip Point Charlie round these cotter doors. You want to wedge them open, Ada. Hang about. I've got one here, haven't I? Here you go. Oh, Terry, you are a good boy. That's better. I'll remember you in my will. Isn't it, huh? The old Ada's cracking on about them fire doors again. They ought to leave them open all the time. It's stupid, isn't it? You coming in? If there should be a fire where you work, the quickest way to make it spread is to wedge open a fire door. Fire doors prevent fire spreading, and they're a barrier against suffocating fumes and smoke, giving you enough time to escape to safety. Never wedge open a fire door. Never lock them shut. Fire doors can save lives. Yours may be. I'm Burt Reynolds. Recently, I did an entire show from Leavenworth Penitentiary in Kansas. It's not a documentary, but I hope it touches you as much as it did me. We had some fantastic acts on the show, great singers, fine musicians, and they were inmates from Leavenworth Penitentiary. We also had some pretty fair performers from the outside. Merle Haggard and the Strangers, Dinah Shore and Jonathan Winters. I'm very proud of this show. I'd like you to see it right here on NBC. Thank you. At eleven-thirty, ten-thirty Central Time. What will your husband say is the one thing he absolutely forbids you to put on his wiener? Been gay. At first glance, taking this tomato down through these spinning fan blades may seem impossible, but I'm here to show you it's not. This must be done all in one motion. Okay guys, watch me go to work. I think I cut my ear. I should have gone with my first plan, grabbing the tomato with my mouth and returning back to safety. I can't hear good. Each week, action and adventure with a helicopter rescue team and Lassie's Rescue Rangers. Saving lives, solving mysteries and protecting nature in the Great Rocky Mountains. Lassie's Rescue Rangers. A new cartoon series starting this September. now it's too late too late I know I'll never digital input It seems so dark outside Freezing from the storm And all I have to keep me warm Is something inside Something inside Now it's What do you do when your rice ain't rich? Soup it up with braised pork soup. What do you do when your fish ain't flavourful? Soup it up with braised pork soup. What do you do with a chicken in stew? Soup it up with braised pork soup. Blazecock Soup. Let's eat! There are some rules you need to remember as a clown. No smoking, drinking, cursing, chewing gum, and never appear in public in partial clown. You need to design your own face, looking at several different faces. Maybe take one thing from each face and then make a combination of it to create your own face. You want them to say, wow, look at that clown. Sunglasses. Stylish. Sexy. And too dark to wear indoors. Unless they have SunSensor lenses. Indoors they lighten, so you can see clearly. But outdoors, they get dark again automatically and cut glare. So buy sunglasses with SunSensor lenses. If you want to look like one of the beautiful people, you have to see what you're doing. Look for the tag that says SunSensor. Lenses that change. When those that are kept apart finally come together, it's not just good, it's fantastic. McDonald's new McDLT. Big Bomber! Big Bomber! This is a rolled up magazine. The rolled up magazines utilize what we term the blunt edge. It can be used for striking, thrusting. very effective against an attacker in close quarters. And bear in mind that the bone structure can be damaged, and death can result from lethal blow. The blunt ends are open magazine in this manner. I think it's almost one-thirty. Get up. I want my chair. You want this chair? Yeah, I want the chair. Well, I haven't seen you here before. I'm not going to get up. I'm not going to get up. I'm tired. No, get away from me. Stop it. Take your chair. Have your chair. No, never do that again. Call the radio, everybody can hear Look up, I'll parade and fire as we are in danger If I can reach an island, I'll find the name of a miracle Flying through the land, I'll try to reach out the iron sign Waiting for the sun to rise Whatcha gonna do? I say the audience! Audience! I say the audience! Audience! Whatcha gonna do? I say the audience! But now let's consider one of my pet peeves. Women. Oh boy, here we go. Thank you, Mel Gibson. This is a men's room. This one forced me to have original sin. Demon seeds. Another complaint is that all too often the few that fear each other get in their own little circle and other people are left out. I'm with her. And where do they go on the way back to the office? You guessed it, the powder room again. I thought they were in the powder room. Hey, the crazy guy isn't making sense. Come on, am I right? Back me up, ladies. This is so true. And now this guy books comedy clubs for a living. Coming soon to Weird and Wonderful Wednesday Watchalongs. We're here. I can't really see. Is that Clint Howard? No, no, no. It was a bit later than that. Maybe it was, uh, eleven. This is important, Andrea. Don't take it I was thinking, what if we put a machine in the lobby just for them? It might be more efficient. For many of us, the best defense is offense. Counterattack. I love that it goes like the Kill Bill vision every time someone's mad. That is one of the dumbest ideas I've ever heard. And if you'd stop and think for one minute, you'd realize it could never work. Holy shit. I want someone like that. Thank you. I'm neither. And I have none of the powers which I'm convinced that you have. I got a turtleneck like his in college. But I'm not scared of black cats, Friday the thirteenth, or walking under ladders. As a matter of fact, every once in a while, I get my kicks walking under a ladder. Not strange at all, considering who you are. Now go on, you were doing beautifully. Evil forces do exist, always have. Makes a side gig. His side gig is doing caricatures. And you will see that there were three instances of an experience almost exactly like yours. I like that lamp. Oh, wait, I missed it. So that's the manners while they're supposed to be playing. Oh, my God. It's the place. Look. It looks like every other... Wyndham in Devon. Are you kidding me? They all look like that. oh yeah look at that pardon me ¶¶ THE END so What's up, what's up, what's up, Mary Jo? Word up, y'all. Word up. How you doing? Okay, how are you?

Okay. Okay. The second gauntlet is upon us, and the withered hand of Lady Luck has shuffled your drawings and slogans. Do what feels right. I might have the greatest one, but we'll see. It's topical and hilarious. I can't wait! Good luck. Gauntlet two. Mercy. Sorry, I misspelled some successes. It's almost better that way. Yeah, seriously. I love that drawing. That is an excellent drawing. Okay, the blue shirt, that's my rendering of a beach. I love it. I want to be there. Oh, and that should get this baby out of me. I'm sure the point of this is not for me to clarify. This is why I hate games. I love it better that way, Mary Jo. No, seriously. And sometimes, like, the spelling, like, the auto-correct makes it sad. Nice, Tabby. Six, seven, six. A new challenger appears. I want that. You should get that red one. What? Brian from Canada put that phrase in. I like it. We're all moving to Canada now. Yes. Yeah, I'll start the car. I want that one too. I know, there's something very...

A new challenger appears. Fight for me, baby, fight! There's like a hundred people in the audience voting too, which is awesome. Sweet, thanks everybody. Seven out of ten answered great. Penguins, nine, one, nine, ten. I just didn't want them to think it was my show. wow a new challenger appears these drawings are so outstanding I think I saw a couple people say the stream's a little bit behind.

So I drew, I did the guy giving the middle finger. But I did that in the last round, and I just thought it didn't get picked, so I actually drew another guy with a little middle finger. We'll see if that one comes up, too. I applaud all y'all, because my endings are so undetailed, like whatever the opposite of detailed is. And I put the wrong hand on both drawings, too.

Okay, that'll do it. Let me put this back on here. I'm surprised I finished a drawing in seventeen seconds, because it felt like it took me three seconds, because I get so rattled. Yay! That was so much fun! Chris, you know, I'm wondering if we should have a spin-off show where we just play this with people. Where we just do games like this? Yeah, this game. I love that the shirt that won is a shirt that we kind of already have in the Dumb Industries store. Josh is wearing it and he designed it. So great. We're just going to put a little pin of a knife over the hands and then it'll be ready to go. Make it a little more violent. Yeah, I'm all for that. My bloodlust is coming forward. Look at this. Oliver bought one today. That's Mary Jo's catchphrase. What? My bloodlust is coming forward. Yeah, she always says every episode. Oh, I love that. That's got to go on a t-shirt. Thank you, Josh and Collette. I hope you had fun. Oh my gosh, it was so amazing. I loved it. Thank you, guys. We love having you guys on the show.

Boring! No, sorry. You're like the way we started together, okay? You're not the first one to say. Okay, no, it's like this, Colette. Yeah, Colette. We know. All right, get on with it. All right, we're so great. No, that's, you know, I say this every time I say this, and it's like we don't, I don't like to go, I get really self-conscious, but it is, this is not, we didn't expect for the community to grow like this and we were just going to have fun and y'all are having fun. It seems like too. And that is everything. So thank you. Yes. Thank you guys so much. And seriously, everyone check out the Dumb Industries store. Both Josh and Colette have done a bunch of really great designs for us. Only place you can get them over at dumb-industries.com. And don't forget the Ken Burns Civil War take on... the complaint that was you guys we're going to be putting that on our youtube uh soon and egyptian musk which still makes me have to lay down with laughter so oh no we really appreciate that yeah I just I messaged chris I'm like is there something we could do to promote the qbc and he just said this product and we're like all right we'll make something Oh, wow. You guys are so great about that. I can just give you guys the vaguest idea and you guys come back with something amazing. It's always so much fun. Thank you guys for being on the show tonight. problem thank you guys yes um seems like we'll see you in minneapolis yes oh yeah yes oh excellent couldn't keep us away excellent I don't know a slight update so yeah excellent yeah we'll have more info on that soon uh but yeah we'll talk to you guys real soon and we'll see you later all right I thought they'd never leave never leave Are we becoming the same person? I don't know, but oldest, stupidest joke in the world. I'm turning into my dad. Oh, bless his heart. Any hoodle. Promise, that was not prepared. That was just totally random. Okay, God. I think you're right. Maybe we should do more game. We should do like a whole game thing with just interactive games with everyone. Wouldn't that be fun? It would. Um, let's, let's figure that out. Um, in the meantime, you just mentioned it, Mary Jo, we've got the, uh, riff tracks and friends comedy night show coming up at the Parkway theater on May in Minneapolis and there are some people coming in from out of town and some people coming from in town and we're planning to do some sort of late breakfast, brunch, lunch or some such the following Friday for anyone who's available. So I have started an email list so that Linda sent me all your people who are interested sent Linda an email. She forwarded those to me. I started a group email with just the vague outline of the plan, specifics to be nailed down, forthcoming. And so let Linda know if you want to be in the loop on that. So that's the broad strokes of it. So you can plan and hopefully we can all get together for something. And I will also, I love sending suggestions about what to see in the Twin Cities. Oh, yes. And that show. Yeah, go ahead. The show on May fifteenth. Tickets are on sale now. I think it's like fifteen dollars for general admission. Yeah. Yeah. Everyone grab tickets theater and I'll post I'll be posting the link in blue sky and Facebook again. I don't know if you have it on you right now, Chris. I got it. Oh, there it is. Thank you. Yeah. And yeah, Bill Corbett, Kevin Murphy, a bunch of great comics. Brandy Brown, Shanann Custer, Ben Katzner, Mary Mack. Check it out. John Moe of Depresh Sesh. Oh, yes. Brian Miller and Eric Webster. Yep. I feel like it's going to be gangbusters. Yes. Linda at dumb-industries.com. Let her know that you just want to be on the email chain so we can keep you in the loop. Yeah. Okay, and then we mentioned this up top. We got an all-new movie due tonight coming on Tuesday, April, April, April, April, April, April, April, April, April, April, April, Here we go. Here's option number one. The sacrifice. Where's the child? Horror at thirty seven thousand feet, which is apparently starring William Shatner and Chuck Connors. OK, so that's option number one. Here we go. Option number two. Amen. Okay. That's Anthony Perkins and How Awful About Alan. that there's no wrong answer there's never any wrong answer but that clip was a tough act I mean the first clip was a tough act to follow with that clip so it was uh and I'll stop editorializing I know because this next option here it's it might be the greatest preview of any movie I've ever seen so uh how awful about alan that's option number two and now here is option number three Oh, my God! Oh! The screaming Mary Jo Faye. And that's the title of the movie? Yes. Because that seems rather unimaginative. I know. And kind of word to the wise, if that's the whole movie, that could wear it thin. But I'll stop editorializing. It's like someone watched the thirty seconds of the movie, and then they didn't know the title of the movie, and they're like, yeah, of course, the movie's The Screaming Woman. Because they had to come up with something really... Oh, sorry. Hilarious. Okay. So that's option number three, The Screaming Woman. And we also have a secret option, option number four, which is not really a secret option, but we will just get our associate producer, Matt Reiser, to compile an hour of television. It could be a variety special. It could be a short movie. It could be an episode on Fantasy Island, Buck Rogers, all sorts of stuff. kind of a wild card okay all right and uh I'm gonna put that link in the chat everyone I'm gonna pin it to so uh you guys can place your votes we'll give you a few minutes here where did let's go there we go um and while you guys are getting your votes in for movie tonight what do you say we take a look at a recent unboxing video? Let's do. So I received my Dumb Industries grab bag, and I'm going to go ahead and open it. Amazingly, I did receive it in the mail, and around here that's shocking to actually get something. Let's see what I've got here. Let's see here. We've got a Wool Gathering by Patti Smith. Not read this. A coupon of stickers. Bug stickers. World Gathering with Patti Smith. I don't know what this is about. Have not read that. I need to look at that. Figure out what's going on there. What else is in here? There is a Cractian coin with... Oh. Whoops. Bridget and Mary Jo. So I don't think that's... That's Bridget and Mary Jo. Yes, it is. Sorry. Had to look that over closely. There we go. You can see that. A little bit of a reflection there. But yeah, I don't think I've had this one. I wonder when this one came out. It's a Kickstarter coin. Let's see there. Vanna White, I am not. But anyway, that's what we've got here. And let's see, once again, our other interesting stickers. Sticker app. Again, a little bit less glare there. And we can see what we've got here. My new stickers. Those should be fun to use. So excellent grab bag win for one of the grab bag giveaways from the Mary Jo Peel. This should be fun. So we should see what this book's about. It should be interesting. So once again, got my grab bag for winning on one of the Mary Jo Peel shows. I'm trying to think which one it was. But I did win because I watched them all. So, Dumb Industries, Mystery Hour, you name it. I'm watching like everyone else. So, anyway, great little grab bag. My Traxian coin, stickers, and the wool gatherers. Wool gathering. So, by Patti Smith. Very fun. Thank you all. Thanks, Mary Jo. All right. Thank you, Rob. Thanks, Rob. Yay, thanks. Rob, a longtime supporter of ours, he actually came on the show once to tell us about how he watched the movie Where Have All the People Gone at least seventy times or something. Yes, that's right! Do you remember that? Yes! Oh my gosh! Mwah! Yes! So yeah, thank you so much, Rob. Love that unboxing video. Lovely. Okay, should we take a look at where this poll is at for Movie Journey? Yep. So we presented our three options. We got horror at thirty seven thousand feet. Start William Shatner and Chuck Connors. How awful about Alan starring Anthony Perkins produced by Aaron Spelling. And the screaming woman starring Olivia de Havilland. Is that how you say it? Or option number four. Matt will just put a random TV, our TV together. I'm going to hit show results, whatever's in that top spot is what we'll be watching on Tuesday, April. Oh, wow. Okay. I can't say I'm not. Horror at thirty seven thousand feet. I really thought the Screaming Woman was going to win. Just I have so many questions. Matt Rando. Matt Random. Yeah. Matt Rando. That sounds pejorative. I mean, Matt Random. Yes. OK. All right. Thirty seven thousand feet. That's what we're going to be doing. Thank you so much, everyone. April twenty-second. Mark your calendars. Get your pencils. Mark your calendars. And that'll be right here on Twitch and in the Mary Jo Peel Show Clubhouse. And now we've got our poll for the April twenty-ninth Mary Jo Peel Show. This will be the next episode of the Mary Jo Peel Show. Do we want to just, do you want to read off the first option? And then I'll do the second. Yeah, hang on. Let me go to the All right. Number one, Dan Scar, B minus in AP Psych, answers your questions and or offers life advice. Yes. And it's your nephew, Dan. He's hilarious. And smart. Very smart. B-minus AP psych. Come on. Yeah. Ten years ago. That's hard to beat. No, twelve years ago. So that'll be option number one. We'll just have Dan come on and any questions you may have. I know I have a lot of questions. Same. And he dispenses some really incredible advice. Mm-hmm. Okay, that's option number one. Option number two, we've been toying with this idea for a while. It hasn't gotten picked yet. But Mary Jo has an extensive collection of scarves. As you can see, she's wearing one right now. And I have an extensive collection of wigs. And we were thinking maybe it would just be fun if we just showcase all the various wigs and scarves that we have in our wardrobe. So that's option number two. And as we always say, the options are just sentences at that point. We just flesh them out as we go along. We figure it out as we go along. Exactly. So that's option number two. option number two. And now what's option number three, Mary? Option number three is somewhat intriguing. Professor Ari Hauptman from the University of Minnesota and famed etymologist. You can see his YouTube series on YouTube. And he will talk about use of the English language in a humorous and smart way. And I know I have a lot of complaints about how people use the language. I'm sure all y'all have your own peccadilloes. We do. Mary Jo, you and I, we talk about that all the time. Yeah, we get inflamed. It's I know we're very protective of the English language and the proper usage of it. Yes. Um, so that'll be option number three. Ari Hoffman etymologist. Yes. I'm going to put that poll in the chat. Let me give me a second to pin it. It should be interesting no matter what is chosen. Agreed. We always have so much fun here on the Mary Jo Beale Show. It's hard. Whether you like it or not. It's hard not to. Like my mom used to say, we will have a good time. All right. We'll give you guys some time to vote. Hey, Mary Jo, what do you say we take a look at another unboxing? Oh, let's do. All right. Here we go. Hello, everyone. I want to show you what I won from Movie Joe Knight's viewing of Doctor Strange on the twenty first. I already opened this a little bit already. First, I got a really nice card. I love these. They're so funny. And then I got Mike and Ike's Red Rages. I'm going to fully enjoy this. This was so much fun. Thanks again. Oh, thank you, Casey. Casey. groovy glasses and what a great smile thanks Casey Casey aka Lazulia another huge supporter uh-huh yes wow yeah um thank you so much and I was uh raffled off during oh Lazulia's watching live yay uh that was that was me yes it was you we uh we raffle off candy at the end of every movie show night so another reason to stick around for uh the entirety of movie show night And it's kind of my favorite thing. I get really nervous about who's going to win and if I will please them with the candy selection from Menards. Or they might be outside of the U.S., in which case we're like, ah. Yes, that has been an adventure indeed. We don't begrudge you. No, no, of course not. We still want you to enter. We love you. Okay, let me just get this back on the screen. These are, again, our options for the next Mary Jo Peel show. Which is my dad's birthday. Jerry. Mayor Peel. Jerry Peel, Mayor Peel. That is awesome. Wait, so is he an Aries or is he... What does that make him? Taurus? Yeah, I think he's a Taurus. Yeah, I'm an Aries. I'm on the fifteenth. But I'm like right on the cusp. I think April twentieth. Okay, so April twenty-ninth, three options. Mary Jo's nephew, Dan, with a B- and AP psych, gives advice. Option number two, Mary Jo showcases her scarf collection. Chris showcases his wig collection. Option number three, Ari Oppman from the University of Minnesota. People, where else can you get such silly options for such a silly show and just dive in and roll with it? So I'm just laughing at this. It's a really, I know, the juxtaposition of these various things. It's like we can get either really kind of scholarly or we could just put wigs and scarves on. Exactly. Or we can make stupid recipes. Yeah, it's so great. Okay, I'm going to hit show results. We laugh. Whatever's in the top spot is what we will be doing. Oh, wow. Okay. Well, I better check and see if Ari's available. They're probably watching just like, uh, what? Yeah. Uh, Ari, I will text you. Stay tuned. That's so exciting. Okay. Excellent. Excellent. I am so surprised. I have to tell you, I'm surprised. Yes, that is, uh, that is great. Okay. Yeah. Okay. We got a plan. Uh, anything else we need to mention? Um, I think that covers our shared document outline so we don't forget anything, right? I think so. I think we did it. As ever, thanks for being here, everyone. Yes. Thank you so much. You guys are the best. Thanks so much to Josh and Colette, of course, for being our guests tonight. You guys are the best. And thank you everyone for watching us on Twitch.

Transcript: Thank you. Listen, I know Burger Queen's got great hamburgers, and their chicken's a good meal, too. But you know what I really get a craving for? What else? Fish. Burger Queen takes these two big cod fillets, see? Then they batter, dip them, and fry them up golden. Add some of their famous french fries, and sprinkle on some golden crisps, and that's fish and chips. Let me give you a little friendly advice. The next time you want the best fish around, go fish at Burger Queen. Come on, Skag, let's go. We're gonna blow those trendy whip bands off that breaker point stage and those kids are gonna be screaming for more. Yeah, Potato Head's right. I can hear him now. Trasher, it's the cops, the ones that were after you. We better stash that bass. They'll be looking for it. They want this lousy guitar? They can have it. You say you have extended periods of anxiety and depression and you're not eating properly, why not? I see. You know your dog food is good for you, but you don't like the taste, huh? Well, it's a common problem. You need a dog food that's nutritious and tastes good, too. You need new Gaines Meal. Gaines makes nutrition taste good. You see, every nugget is basted for flavor. To give it a taste and aroma dogs can't resist. And in spite of what you tell me, you are a dog. And notice the small nugget size. It makes Gaines Meal easy to eat and easy to mix. Go ahead, try it. See, Gaines does make nutrition taste good. Next patient, please. Get brand new Gaines Meal. It makes nutrition taste good. Now buy five pounds of Gaines Meal and save six cents. Ten pounds, save fifteen cents. Twenty-five pounds, save twenty-five cents. Hi, doggie. Well, that'll at least give me a little time to work with it. Hey, miss. Lady, your dog's tearing your car apart. Max, come back here! Max! Oh my baby. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh thank god. Thank you. Although you are superior, we are both machines. I ask only to serve you. Your proposal is very interesting, but come no closer. I have computed you, and your memory banks do not scan. We shall be friends. I will prove myself. Stop where you are. This is a warning. For the last time, stop. There is no reason for alarm. As you have said, I am only a primitive, obsolete machine. I will destroy you. I can't see a thing. I don't see our robot. He's probably on the ground. No, he isn't. I see him. You have destroyed me. He did it. I knew he could. Time is money. Using time effectively means added profits and improved business efficiency.

They're giving their time to help you out, and you want to show you care, so you Ritz it. Ritz crackers make the occasion right.

And Staten Island. We're about four miles from the missile base. Boy bands were not so cute back then. Are they what, hoodlum farmers? A jeep, no less. Come on. Let's juvie it up. Oh, so it does work. It's really too bad there's no possible way the jeep could drive around that car. Hey, get that car out of the way! It's a gang of rival nuclear scientists. What are you nuclear proliferating against? What do you got? You ruffians, don't you know science always triumphs? Isn't it like a jet to bring a knife to a nuclear war? They could drive around. Stop! There's a bomb in that case! Yeah, yeah! Nice Beatles cover. Coming soon to Weird and Wonderful Wednesday Watchalongs. I like this idea. Well, speak up. What do you want to say? I've come to claim the twenty pounds reward for Frankie McPhillip. Frankie McPhillip? Where? At first, some people report feeling the pulsation more in certain areas or more on one side of their face than the other. They become concerned the system may not be operating correctly. Assuming you are using enough gel, this is not unusual with one side of the face being more sensitive. This all definitely seems like a weird sex thing, right? Yeah. What if you used it on a different part of your body? I know. Someone is definitely auto-erotic asphyxiated. Yeah. Do you think anyone's doing more than one wife? I wonder. Some people might. It amazes me when we get at the end of class, I'll see people's paintings and how much extra things that they've put into their painting. You know, they get all these extra... Did you start yesterday? You know, it's... I don't know how they do it. We do sometimes get paintings in advance if a student knows they... can't make it, but they want us to show their work. We've had that happen a couple times. Ah, okay. I just love the wrestling theme on the sand. And I still have memories of that, of them like that, getting sand in their eyes and stuff. But that was just too much going on in the painting to get it done in this amount of time. nobody expects the ironside inquisition yeah watching him walk around and do nothing is so much more interesting than seeing the killings by the monster will he walk into another room or stay in this room oh my god the suspense is killing me Aye, aye, aye. I've got his cataracts. Oh, damn. There, it should squeeze with me. Oh, now I can't do the Harpo Groucho mirror scene. Jimmy Lee Curtis is in there. Well, that was a productive afternoon. This is like a real estate video. My dinner with Andre didn't have this many indoor scenes. Woo!

We're watching the the made-for-TV movie Baffled starring Leonard Nimoy. This is the artwork behind me here. um I maybe it's just me like growing up leonard nimoy was just it's so iconic as spock whenever I see leonard nimoy I just see spock you know like leonard nimoy without the little pointy ears it seems off right wow right right I don't think he much escaped that I don't think so either. With my limited knowledge of Star Trek and his career. He was great. I mean, he did a lot of really, really good things outside of Star Trek. But it's like you see him and it's like, yeah, that's Spock. Yeah, yeah. It's so distinctive. It's so iconic. Yeah. He also was a photographer. Oh, really? Yeah. He did... If memory serves, he photographed... women, a lot of women of different sizes and, you know, outside the conventional beauty ideal. I thought you were going to say, like, he was like a peeping Tom, like he just, like, taking photos of women on the street. We cannot sully his, his reputation like that. No, he's a very interesting, he's an interesting person. Yes, totally. Yes. A movie tonight is the spinoff program of the marriage appeal show where Mary Jo and I watch a movie we've never seen before. We know absolutely nothing about, we go in completely cold. We get our associate producer, Matt Reiser to track down a copy of the movie and sure, you know, it'll play all the way through. That's it. We don't know anything else. I never look anything up about it. The only thing I'm ever familiar with is getting some taste of it from the artwork that you provide, that you put up. Exactly. And we have a really nice print that we're going to be using tonight. We actually we had a couple people send us this. So I want to give a shout out to John Miles and Tim Salmons, who both provided us with a really nice, pristine print of baffled. I'm so glad that worked out. Thanks, John. Thanks. Yeah. Um, so, uh, not much to mention up top, except that next Tuesday, exactly one week from today is the next episode of the marriage appeal show.

And if you'd like to watch tonight's program completely ad-free, head to dumb-industries.com slash which is free for your first thirty days, might I add. You don't say. So before we get started, there was a comment that I star during the pre-show that I just had to highlight and from Forklift Killer. What's the over under on how many times? Okay. First of all, you know, I don't know what over under means. Secondly, you know, I'm baffled even at movies that don't have the word baffled in the title. So. That's hilarious. Cause I, I don't think I can, I think I know what over under means, but I don't think I could properly articulate it, you know? Yeah. I know. I'd like that you admitted that I feel very close to you right now. I'm not ashamed to admit when I don't know something, you know? So why is it impressive that I did? Cause if you're not ashamed, like, yeah, that's true. Um, No, I'm just curious. We can table this until chit-chat and tidbits, but no, yeah, I don't know what over-under is, but I think we can all rest assured, show of hands, that I will be baffled tonight. I always am. Always, always. You know, I've told you this before, when I'm recording riff tracks with Bridget, We watch the movies in increments, like, like, thirty seconds of drilling down deeply to come up with lines. So I lose track of the plot. I don't know what the plot is. So then when we're recording it at Kevin's, I will start missing lines and Kevin will have to stop and say, You started watching the movie, didn't you? Yes, because it's a bigger screen and I'm finally getting what's happening. So there's my true confession. So yes, I will be baffled. I'm sorry to hold us up. No, no worries. And then also, Movie Joe Night, we also always raffle off a piece of candy, Movie Joe candy. And everyone watching live will have a chance to win that candy. So stick around until the end of the night. And what do you say? We love to give away the candy. So do stick around and just throw in for the raffle. We love it. Oh, yes. Okay. Should we do this? Let's do this thing. And we might be fast forwarding because it's kind of long. So this movie is about ninety minutes long. We didn't cut it down, but we might skip through some parts. Just, you know, keep it. There we go. Oh, I remember this theme song or that. No, really? That's how it starts. Yeah. And he's not wearing his mask over his nose, his COVID mask. That looks like so much fun. I would do that in art. And here we are with five laps to go in USAC's five hundred mile eastern special. So far we've had four yellow lights, two minor wrecks, but nobody hurt. We'll just keep going until somebody is hurt. Chris, would you do that if you had the opportunity? Hell no. Really? No. Go-karts frighten me. Oh, I did go-karts once. It was smelly, but it was fun. Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of risking death. Or, yeah, driving. I guess I would do it if nobody else was on the track. The green screen is just so... It's so great. I love when driving is always portrayed like this. I mean, there's some truth to it, but it's the only way people know how to look like they're driving. What? Both Mary Jo and I are baffled. It's one. Guessing hallucination or... Again? I think I thought this was comedy. Pretty funny to me. But maybe it's a... Like a psychological drama. Drama. It's Wyndham in Devondale. Wow. Very Hitchcockian. Yeah. Ooh. Okay, we got it. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Cut to that lady screaming a few more times. It's very amusing to me. I like the EMT standing there. Just like, hey, what are you doing this weekend? And that's what he said to you and Andretti. last year after indianapolis well now tom could we get back now to what happened in the pennsylvania run yesterday that's very simple I lost the race tom you're being very evasive again no it's right I don't mind I'll go on holding no no no let's not leap into next week just yet now they gave you up for dead so I'll ask the question did it seem you were dead for a moment I don't know I guess I had schrodinger's death Let's get back to the manor house you saw. Now, what about that house? Wait, is this a televised therapy session? Seeing a manor house and hearing a woman scream. Yeah, well, I guess maybe I thought I saw something. You did see something, I can tell. I guess that's what you'd say it was. This is all stuff I would have kept to myself. I was on a stretch. And all of a sudden, I wasn't in Pennsylvania anymore. I was on his gravel road, headed for the house. Then just as suddenly, I was back on the track, and a lot of guys were trying to climb all around me into the lead. And I loved it. Which is not impossible. And I thought I saw a hay wagon. And you are... No, I repeat, my price is quite firm. After the crash, there was this woman screaming her head off. Yes, I hope. I guess you'd call it a sly grin. Yeah, nobody likes to hear other people's dreams. It's boring. That's it. It was all over. And who were they? I'm terribly sorry. Now, let's get back to the manhouse. I'll be in New York until tomorrow. Thank you. Goodbye. How did you know? A general look? That and the voice. It said Wyndham in Devon. You can't get much more English than that. No, you certainly can't. We'll take a break here. We'll be back in a minute. Wyndham. Wyndham in Devon. It's Wyndham in Devon, dear. I don't think I'll be able to sleep on the plane, Mommy. I want to get there so bad. When we get to London, will we go to Wyndham right away? Oh, no, we'll spend a couple of nights in London. We're not really due there until Thursday. I'm glad they didn't not show us the Denver airport side. I promise you, I'm leaving all my career stuff here at home. No interviews, no scripts, no telephone call to Los Angeles. Oh, mother. Just fun. A good, fun vacation, right? Are you glad you're going to be seeing Daddy again? Do you think you might? I'm kind of hooked now. I'm sorry. I know. His letters have been so nice lately. I like to think so. Really? I keep reminding myself it's been eleven years since I saw him. There goes the yellow car passing. As the great philosopher says, ten, eleven years makes a big difference to the heart. What great philosopher said that? Me. We just have to wait and see what happens, okay? Okay. Ooh, that's a great car. A living room car. This is funky stuff. Yeah, the credits are starting, so I don't have to ask who that woman was. I think it's Diana Hyland, but I'm not going to ask because I hate when I interrupt the movie if I ask. So the only thing I know is I think this was intended to be a TV show. Yeah, it was intended to be a TV show, but it didn't get picked up, so they released it as a movie. Oh, okay. I'll be curious to see what premise they were going to extrapolate the series from. I know. Yeah. This is a really nice print of this movie I gotta say Thank you, Tim and John. Freeze frames will never not be funny to me. Are you? Freeze frames, like when they're used this way, it's never not amusing to me. You think at the time they just thought it was so cool? I think so. Really cool technology? Yeah. Produced and directed. Where were you born? I want to know all about you. I was born in Ohio. A little town called Oskegum. Okay, I'm bored now. And did you have any visions there as a boy? Oh, yeah. I had a lot of visions. Oh, he has a vision. Getting out of Oskegum. You're marvelous. Even better than on television or on the track. Crackers? What? Oh, no thank you. Look, however you track me down, whatever it is you're here for, are you sure you wouldn't rather explain it over a martini? Sorry, I only have fourteen minutes to talk to you before I did my appointment. Seriously. I want to ask you what you intend to do about that poor woman. Which poor woman? The one who screamed in your vision. Her life is obviously in jeopardy. From now on, Kovacs, stick to wheels. No more TV interviews. How interesting. You say Kovac and not Tom when you talk to yourself. I always say Michelle, not Brent. Well, Tom or Kovac. I do know something about the occult. I've studied for five years with Ramgat Singh and then, of course, with Willie Smith for two. Of course. So it would be more helpful if you could draw a picture for me. Draw a picture? Mm-hmm. Oh. All right. Why not draw a picture? You want a Porsche or a Ferrari? The manor house you saw. Would you draw it from memory, please? My art teacher said I showed great promise as a mechanic. Are you serious? Very. Now we have to watch him draw. I earn my living selling rare books, in the course of which I've gained a great deal of knowledge on witchcraft and the occult. Furniture in the seventies is interesting, to say the least. It was gigantic. I think gigantic was the name of the game. You think I'm silly or maybe dangerous. Well, I'm neither. And I have none of the powers which I'm convinced that you have. I had a turtleneck like his in college. But I'm not scared of black cats Friday the thirteenth or walking under ladders. As a matter of fact, every once in a while I get my kicks walking under a ladder. Not strange at all considering who you are. Now go on, you were doing beautifully. Evil forces do exist, always have. Makes a side gig. His side gig is doing caricatures. And you will see that there were three instances of an experience almost exactly like yours. I like that lamp. Oh wait, I missed it. So that's the manners I was there supposed to find? Oh my god. It's the place, look. It looks like every other... Wyndham in Devon. Are you kidding me? They all look like that. Oh, yeah. Look at that. Pardon me. Now, like it or not, you have rare and mysterious insight. Right? Yeah. What you call insight, I call a knock on the head that I got when I wrecked my car at a hundred and fifty miles an hour. Can you understand that? I understand this. Very seldom does someone intelligent, giving, and... Why shouldn't I use the word good? Acquire the strength to fight the force of evil. You have. Oh, so he's an evil fighter. Where? To England to save that woman. But I don't even know the woman. Besides, she's probably not Indian. She's an American. How do you know that? Excuse me. Her accent. When she said Wyndham in Denver, it was definitely American. That's absolutely wrong. Distinctly American accent. It was a Midwestern accent. Maybe. I'm not sure. And the little girl? No. But you said on television that you were going to Europe anyway. To chase cars, not wild geese. And now you're chasing me. Ouch. Not me. It's an abrupt ending. I would live in England. Yeah. Oh! the estate they just found oh okay so this is so is mr duncan sanford here ah you'll have to ask mrs faraday my dear miss glenn what should I call you mrs sanford oh I answer to both mrs faraday and of course you're jennifer The updated Downton Abbey Awkward Didn't Daddy make the reservation? Why isn't he here? He will be, Jane. He lives in a house in the village. There's no reason for him to stay here. Well, why didn't he ask us to his house? You've asked me that, and I've explained. Be a little patient. Pardon me. Oh, this is a lovely place. Hey, look! England! The sea's right here! Yes, and it's wild and dangerous. She's very observant. But of course, those of us who live at Wyndham enjoy the excitement of the sea. That's the gun on the mantle, everybody. I've been waiting my whole life to meet you. The temperature today in New York City reached a record-breaking high of ninety-eight degrees. According to the United States Weather Bureau, there should be a drop to the mid-eighties by midnight. Tomorrow continues hot and humid. Strong gusty winds by Thursday, however, should mean more comfortable temperatures by the end of the week. Now back to the main news. Oh, yeah. Something for the ladies. Hello? Mr. Kovac, I'm calling for Michelle Brent. Oh, oh, yeah. She tried to reach you earlier, but... Had to leave for London, but said if you want to contact her, she'll be at the Chester house off the Tower Bridge Road. OK, I'll make a note of it. Thank you. Son of a gun. What? OK, we got it. He dreamt he got locked out of his Airbnb. Nightmare. Wow. Better be the lady screaming. Oh, no. That thing was made of cardboard. Totally. The banister was not up to code. Oh, he fell in quite nicely. He's going to hit the rock. Whoa. Yeah, whoa is right. Talk about a wet dream. Yes, thank you very much. Can I be of any help? Well, my husband doesn't seem to have a telephone. At least the operator said he wasn't listed. Oh, that's not uncommon around here. But I can give you directions to reach Mrs. Sandberg. But wouldn't she know, even if she was overseas in the States, that he would have a telephone or not? I think. Daddy ever mentioned her in his letters? I got to ask about that. His letters weren't exactly epics. So she doesn't know until she gets there? She lives in Cliff Cottage. Oh, good. Well, we'll go there first thing in the morning, then. In the meantime, my dear, it's about an hour past your bedtime. Can't we go to the village now, Mommy? Jennifer... Okay. Good night, Mrs. Faraday. Good night, Jennifer. And good night, Miss Kangaroo. What's her name? Wendy. Wendy Wyndham Sanford. It is? I just decided. Excuse me. Got a mannequin head there. Oh, God. I've been expecting you. And your leisure suit. I thought your English always said schedule. Come in. Thank you. Boy, he really nailed her on that one. I was just trying to make you feel at home. Well, that wouldn't be too hard. You have a very nice place. I share the flat with my sister. She's in Paris at the moment on holiday. Manor estates limited. I said holiday because I'm British. You wouldn't be planning a vacation yourself. Well, as you can see, one can stay at your manor house in Wyndham. How about that? I only hope Mrs. Faraday hasn't... Daddy, I'm coming on to her. I know. I made some inquiries. She owns Wyndham and takes guests during the summer. You know, noblesse oblige, taxes and all that. Well, I'm surprised you didn't go ahead and reserve the rooms. I should have. Why is she standing like that? Tom Kovac, I didn't tell the truth just now. I wasn't sure that you'd come. I haven't yet. But I can't tell you how grateful I am for you. Really, for that woman's sake. Is that an invitation? I'm here. I'm here. Really, thank you. Thank you for coming. Have you ever been to London? Yes, a couple times. How about you? I love there. I can't wrap my head around the driving on the other side. As a pedestrian. I just can't figure it out. I could have stepped into my shower, slipped on a cake of soap, hit my head on the tiles, and crawled out half-conscious. I doubt that. I mean, you're here. Maybe because my shower doesn't normally run salt water. Look out! Driving with Leonard Nimoy, no thanks. He's a real backseat driver. There are evil forces there, and we can't be too careful. That must be the cottage over there, Jan. Well, thank you for that piece of information. We're going to the cottage. Knock again. Maybe it's not the cottage over there. Please wait. I'll only be a moment. Takes me a while to get around, you know. But do come in. Look, Mom, it's you. Yes, of course it is. Why should it be anyone else? I followed your career for years. This is not creepy at all. Can you tell me that? aren't I rude I'm screaming at you and I haven't even introduced myself you're a fan club named louise sanford windham branch and I'm very happy to meet you at last duncan and I we gotta get a fan club with the london branch I knew you would ask that we walk in they just have a shrine to us We thought it would be really nice, but now we're freaked out. I'm afraid we've been temporarily stood up. Of course, but only temporarily. It isn't like that. Temporal. Temporal. Let me show you, dear. Just around that corner, you'll find a funny little cabinet with drawers. Yes, I see it. In the bottom drawer on the right-hand side, there's something for you. The bunch of pills. I just wanted to say he's held on to every scrap. When did Duncan leave, Mrs. Sanford? Oh, please call me Louise. Well, he used to go back and forth. London, Glasgow, Liverpool. I haven't heard from him for some time. Except for the note about your room. There in the drawer. Is he the husband of the Duncan... Is this where the husband is supposed to be? I'm sorry, I talk over all the information. But in the last six months, he's written very often. And his letters have been... different. Perhaps he's in London. Is this going to be a speculating movie where they just keep speculating about something? Well, he would be there, but he's not there. I wasn't very fond of him either, but he might know something. Do you have any idea where I might reach him? No, I'm afraid not. Do you know what I think, Jennifer? But that attractive rogue of a father of yours has some sort of super surprise for you and your ma, and he's waiting for exactly the right moment to spring it. I don't know. Shall we all have a happy and hopeful cup of tea? Oh, I'm for that. How about you, Jen? Who wants more plaid? I can manage. There's more plaid. Pull that. That's a Polish name, isn't it? It's a name name, Mrs. Faraday. My paternal grandfather was from Warsaw, and his wife was from Holland. The other side was Irish. Spicy. It's a name name. That makes me one hundred percent Midwestern American, right? Yes, I suppose it does. May I show you our library? Miss Glenn, I'd like you to meet a countryman of yours. Mr. Thomas Kovac, Andrea Glenn. How do you do? Haven't we met somewhere before? Or does everyone ask you that? Perhaps we have met before. Is she the woman that was screaming at the beginning? Yes, I think so. And that's why he's sort of... Perhaps we'll see you later, Mr. Kovac. Oh, you will. Beam me up, Scotty. It's quite safe, Mr. Kovac. Yeah, but who's the guy? They do have lifts in the American Midwest, I assume. Oh, yeah. And they never saw them again. It's an incinerator. Oh, my God. Could you imagine? Oh, it's craft. What a wolf! Signora Faraday, something tells me that tonight you will serve the Dover Sole from your water so blessedly close. I'm afraid we're having roast beef tonight. He was going to be the wacky side character. And then it didn't pan out. Yeah. The woman, the girl, and the elevator, they're all here. And look. Your salty shower. Okay, so where's the evil force? Give me time. Give me time. I've only been here three hours. Did he know she was coming? Three hours? Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, okay. I've seen every film that you have made. Every one. Well, I've put you several ahead of me, senor, but thank you very much. Why didn't you tell me that the screaming lady in your vision is Andrea Glenn? I never saw her in a flick where she screamed. That still doesn't explain the sly little girl. It's her daughter and a doll. I read recently that you'd raced in Russia. How is Russia, Mr. Kovac? Very big, Miss Brandt. Ah, Mrs. Faraday, you certainly do pull in the celebrities. Miss Glenn and Tom Kovac. He's very big in racing car circles. I'm afraid I don't follow the sport. but it does suggest to me now why you're here mr kovac so he's famous for both racing and being a psychic I don't know my late husband's true love you'll get to meet him I'll get hopkins to show you to your room and why did they have to make him a race car driver with psych yeah so curious about how they thought they were packaging him Oh, I hate bed and breakfasts where you have to talk to people you don't know. Oh my goodness. Have you ever been to one? Yes, it's excruciating. Yes, I know. You seem to know the village rather well, Mr. Tracewell. I do? I saw you driving through those streets with amazing dash. He's trying to get it over with quickly, aren't you, Georgie? George? Get what over with? Business, I mean. Combining business with pleasure, George? You could say that. His hair is a little out of control. Please, Mrs. Faraday, let me do it. With pleasure. I noticed from your letterhead, Signore Varelli, that you're an engineer. I build the autostrade, the roads. In Italia, all roads lead straight from my office, Varelli of Milano. I hope I do not sound immodest. Not at all. One takes pride in one's doings. I bet you'd like a hamburger. I'm just not hungry. Everything is boiled. I'm used to tea and cakes at four and supper at eight. I'm really not hungry, Mommy. May I please leave the table? It's perfectly all right. You go right on ahead, dear. This is a little Agatha Christie-y. God, I thought she'd never leave the bag. Please. About her father? Oh, yes, I'm afraid she is a little disappointed. But I think he's probably just been delayed. He always did like entrances, whether it was onstage or offstage. I feel so awful about not telling her, Daddy. She wants to see you too. Wait, what? Don't you think I want to see her? What? It's not easy, Jim. But it's especially important that you say nothing to her as yet. The people who want to keep us apart. Who are they? Why do they? I'm fighting them. So the three of us can return to America together. Will you help me? so we never saw how she no bumps into him or realizes he's there I feel like that keeps happening this movie what people just crossing paths without any all of a sudden yeah it's like yeah yeah like it feels like um we haven't edited it but it feels like it got randomly edited His finger is in it. It's one of those joke boxes. Ow, it burns. I'm so confused. I know. I'm so baffled. We're baffled. Oh, Miss Glenn, please come in. Mrs. Faraday, I didn't mean to interrupt you. I'm in a harpsichord band. She's outside. Oh, but it's so late. It's a lovely evening. Nearly a full moon. I'd better track her down and get her to bed. Shall I take this into the house? No, perhaps not. Hey, hey, hey. Hey, not here. Oh, hello. Oh, you haven't seen my daughter around, have you? No, sorry, no. daughter daughter yeah like she just water off and found her dad yeah Jennifer I don't like the looks of this She really gives the place a good look around. I know. Not funny. Just a mirror and a candle. It's not funny, Jen. My mom would have backhanded me. I've been looking all over for you. I've been here all evening. In olden times when parents backhanded their kids. Or said they went, I ought to backhand you. Knock you into next week. Since when have you started calling me mother? When I stopped calling you mommy. I won't be needing that anymore. It's nothing but a childish toy. What? I know. Oh, she's being... Yeah, yeah. She's under a spell. A necklace spell. Raging hormones. Hello. You guessed it. This is girly. Interesting. Very interesting. Twenty-seven Bentley. I mean how men womanize any machine that serves them. Good for her. You're one of those... Women's live? No, no, no, no. I'm open to all views. Tell me, does it work? But it's a fact. Not of action for a long time. Our hostess asked me to have a look. Oh. You put a grilled cheese on the engine. Clever. Was that her I'm a grown-up now? I know. He's like, should I catcall her? Her. Her, not her. Where did she go? She's vanished. I have a feeling about that girl. Not anything she's done yet, but something she's going to do. Something evil. Michelle, this is a little... What is it? That seems very thoughtfully of him. Something... growing. Yes, yes. What was it like? But it's gone. Try and refocus the image. How can I refocus an image that I can't even see anymore? Don't get mad at me. Wait, wait, wait. It's not clear. I can't see what it is. No, no, no. Don't rush. Try not to rush. I once knew a Tibetan psychic and he said one cannot rush. Thanks, life coach. And do you think they brought it to an exotic locale because they thought that would be... right now exotic or something focus on the center of the image now work from the center out there's um a girl's hands and she's squeezing a leaf the girl is it jennifer I can't tell it's it's all hazy it's all gray we'll try and concentrate on the color just pick one object and would you get off my back the glass is red And the juice is being... Yes? Milked. It's gone. But the hand was squeezing something. Darn. Darn it. Missions. Someone's going to be drinking out of that red glass. Come on. Uh-oh. This is so dumb. Don't you dare drink out of that glass. This is so dumb. Write this minute. Yeah, you see, I'm writing to this nephew of mine in Walla Walla, and he's even a bigger fan of yours than Signor Varelli. How so nice. They named it twice. Yes, I suppose so. I don't have any paper. Paper? Paper? Well, will this do? It even has Windham Endeavor. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Oh. I don't know how to apologize. Try, Mr. Kovac. Oh. Oh, yeah. You're not going to believe this, but I was out... Why don't you just say that Wyndham, lovely as it is, is having a peculiar effect on all of us? Oh, girl. Is that what it is? Oh, that's splendid. Splendid. Well, thank you, Miss Brent. Or should I say Miss Blunt? What? What? Why? Why? She is a little weird. I'm even beginning to wonder about weird books. Oh, it wasn't her surname. It was her attitude she was commenting on. Yeah. You really handled that with flair. Subtle, wasn't I? But you ought to be more careful making up a place like Walla Walla. Michelle, don't let him hear you say that in Walla Walla. Don't they have any dancers in the village? Why didn't you tell me you were interested, Jennifer? Oh, okay. I should like to meet some boys. I'll see what I can arrange. Oh, maybe it wasn't really her dad. It was like she's a shapeshifter or something. Oh, you're smart and junk. Does Mrs. Faraday look younger to you? Mm-hmm. Might have to hit that. I'm not responsible for it, I hope. It was very strange. It's almost as if he knocked the glass over on purpose. He's weird. Maybe he and his girlfriend are the ones. They didn't meet here for little old openers. They planned to come to Wyndham together. Some sort of plot. I've heard. What are you saying? Well, while we're at it, would you mind telling a misguidedly curious mom just what's happened to you? You look older. Well, I'm not wearing any makeup, am I? I was actually just going to say, it looks like she's wearing makeup. This is me. Mother. Yeah. Okay. So she has that necklace, which is aging her, but her youth juices are going to her, I think. If I were a drinking woman, I'd ask for something spiked. In some sort of transaction. Metaphysical transaction. Just exaggerating. Changing climate. Anticipation jetlag. Oh, it tastes like leaves. Did you milk the leaves again? Oh. Why did I eat Arby's? British food! There's a hashed bull. Shepherd's pie. Which is actually really good. Which I like. Want me to open a window in here? Yeah, okay. Oh god. Thanks, Nurse Ratchet! It seems impossible to believe that Jennifer should want to kill her mother. Well, maybe it wasn't Jennifer. Don't forget, Andrea is loaded. She says so casually. What are you going to do? I just don't understand how this would have been a TV show. That's the plan she tore the leaf off. Was it like an X-Files thing? Like the two of them would have gone to different areas? Yeah, yeah. Like how did they plan, think they were going to... Yeah. Much more poisonous. read dr reed are you the husband no but I think you ought to know that that she got sick from black well she um could have had oleander in her food oleander I prefer to arrive at my own diagnosis thank you thank you he's he's like a monty python yes just thinking that yeah thank you Go-go boots. I so wanted a pair of go-go boots when I was a kid. I thought it would change my life and make me popular. There's something Michael Sheeny about that guy. Totally. Signora Faraday holds in her cellar one of the world's finest ports. See, it's a drawing room murder mystery. You will have some? Well, perhaps a drop for my portside rheumatism. Port? Thank you. May I have a brandy? Brandy, sir. It's too bad the Tracewells are going to miss this. They've just gone upstairs. Should I ask them to join us? I suggest that you don't, Mr. Kovac. They're going out. Tracewells seem to go out most every night, don't they, Mrs. Faraday? What business is it of yours? I mean, she's evil, but she does make a good point. But where did the girl get the more adult clothing? We don't know. Because what is she wearing now? Okay, yeah, she's wearing very groovy clothes. Those earrings are boss. Drinking the blood of the young girl. I really would like to have your expert opinion on the port. Well, of course, it is a very good port. A very good year. A very, very, very good port. As a matter of fact, it is. May I call you Michelle? I got to try that. Coming on to fellas. I'll let you walk out. That is some head of hair, I'll tell you what. I'm sorry I'm late. I was detained by a suspicion. A what? In Devon tonight. The Tracewells with a car loaded with pharmaceuticals. Drugs? Mm-hmm. Yes. Yes, drugs. No, I don't believe that those two young people would... You're probably right. Okay. And what about vintage wines? Let me finish. I wasn't finished speaking. In case you didn't know, they often serve poison in wines. Yeah, you're probably right. Poison in wines? And leave me here, alone? Yeah. Thanks. Whoever said jolly England? I think I better leave tonight. Mother Nature is a cock blocker. I need more youth blood. That flashlight isn't doing a lot of good. Who is it? Who is it? What? Weird kissing. You've got to be careful. He's choking on hairspray right now. It's only a matter of a few more days. And each day's an age without you. Well, your mirror can't be complaining. Age-wise. Oh, no, no, no. It laughs right in my face with me. Younger and younger every day. Miraculously. Beautifully. Please, please don't make that stop. Whatever you wish, Catherine, darling. That looks like it hurts. Oh, you bruised my gums. Okay. I know. Should I fast forward? Yes. Please. I'm scared I'm going to miss something. All right, here we go. Please, please help me. Please. Over here, Tom. She's turning evil as well. Don't fail me now, go-go boots. Help! Help! Help! Help! That is very Tom Stewart. Oh! Tom Stewart did kill him! Oh damn. I'm not sure if he would have survived that or not been slightly injured. That suit is no good now, I just want you to know. He'll have to throw it away. Okay. Piss off. I like when they do jump cuts during the sleuthing. We don't have to watch every second of it. Ew, no. I would not do this. Why did she feel compelled to bring the newspaper along with her? And her iPad? Ugh, don't touch it! Ugh, don't touch it! Ew. I would never be able to do this. Nope. There's a whole thing called urbex. Have you ever heard of that? No. Where people go into abandoned buildings and just take pictures and videos. What's it called? Urbex. It's urban exploration. Oh, wow. It's like a whole culture. It's like people break into abandoned places. Oh, wow. Okay. And then they document it. Yes. What are you looking for? Nothing. I'm just browsing around. I never understood why they're I know. Their straps go, like, on their chin. Like the guards at Buckingham Palace. Yeah. Or it's so weird. Or, like, Mounties have a weird chin thing that looks really uncomfortable. But be that as it may. Shouldn't it go under the chin, though? I know. It just seems so weird. Like, what would the point of that? I know. Yeah. Yeah. Look at this. We got some urbex explorers watching tonight. Oh, yeah. Wow. Fascinating. But I don't think I could do it. I must learn from them. Young people today seem to take to each other so suddenly. I don't want to shatter your illusions, Mrs. Faraday, but I don't think they've just met. What? They've known each other before, at least according to my little gossip columnist, Jennifer. Before they came to Wyndham? Do tell. Well, why would they want to pretend? Oh, it's probably just an escapade. Two attractive young people who want to be together. Well, not here at Wyndham. Not in my home. So she's mad they're hanging out together? I guess. Now it's the British version of Manos where they go parking. But practically the same thing happened to you in your apartment in New York. You almost drowned there, too. But this was no vision, Michelle. This was cold, wet reality. you don't have to yell at me but why'd you say he when the voice you heard calling you must have been jennifer might have been not must and I'm not convinced that it was jennifer who loosened that guardrail either let's face it the whole pattern not only suggests jennifer but also that she has psychic power oh come on yes as you do all right let's drive along your track for a while we might as well I mean, you're a girl, but we can try it. That your evil force, if such a thing really exists, might be Duncan Sanford. Why Duncan Sanford? You said you found some objects dealing with witchcraft in that burned-out shop, right? Right. And you discovered that Parrish is dead, right? Right. Well, if Duncan was so close to Parrish, couldn't he, too, have been dabbling in your occult? Look! Okay, I'll look. Hey. That was something called for. Can you come and push it out? Uh-oh, nope. There she goes. Ah! That really did stop. I know, me too. Here we go. Action sequence. Yeah, here we go. He just drives it into the tree. It's a beautiful locale for a change. Backstreet. Backstreet. I love when they speed up film to make something appear faster. But you still see the trees. Like the wind. It's too weird. I do hope he doesn't run out of petrol. Oh, it's soundtrack time. It's the most wonderful time of the week. Music's not really matching this story. I know, it's just so weird. This seems like a walking scene through London. Yeah. Young people going from top to top. A bunch of people shopping and running in the streets. Or like women trying on hats because they're having a goofy girl's day. For real! Yeah. And then at the end, they get home and they all flop down on the couch and stick their legs up like, oh! With their shopping bags. Oh, what's up? Oh, right. I know something. I know something is going on. I found something. How is that more efficient than just opening the door? Saved him a good split second. Why did you do this? You show off. Was it him? Was it an Italian guy? She's gonna kick him out. Whoa. And don't forget to leave a tip for housekeeping. Or pizza sauce, I can't tell. Sorry to disturb you. We were just playing a guessing game. Oh. And is guessing your game? Shall we do the ministry of silly warts? It's a type of oleander. Now, the question remains, how did you know? Oh, well, no matter. Surely an accident. You were right, Michelle. It always comes back to Jennifer. It's okay, Mother. I promised Dr. Reed I'd take care of your medicine. I like how that woman on the left is covered with a wheelchair, a cane, and a shawl. For any situation. And she's probably like forty-seven when she filmed this. Yeah, totally. Remarkably, hasn't she? Well, it happens with some girls. No, it's not just that. It's the way she looks, the way she acts, and the way she dresses. The things she's done. Remind you of Duncan? At the worst times. Whenever Parrish was around he'd fall into those moods. Those moods made me shudder too. Are you afraid that Jennifer may have inherited that... strain? Strain? But you don't inherit... No, it's not possible. No, of course not. Blame an aging woman for not minding her tongue. It would mean believing in something that I refuse to believe. Call me a Midwesterner, but I don't think I'd share this information with... Yeah. How do they get on this topic, this intense... Always I come back to the same three points. Which are? Point one. You had a vision that Varelli had blood on him. So you thought it was he that was driving the black van? For some reason. I can't be sure about him. Point two. What about the Tracewells? They sell drugs, and there are some drugs that are made from the oleander plant. Could be. Point three. What's a three-letter word for pants? Why should Duncan Sanford send for his wife and his daughter and then not turn up? Why? There is no logical reason unless... Unless? Unless, as you said, he's involved in the account. Could Duncan have hypnotized Jennifer in some way? From a distance? A letter? No, not likely. Oh, what's he writing? It's a secret note. What? What is it? I wrote that. Well, don't write that. Don't use a pencil. We'll have good times for years and years to come, you'll see. Yeah, I got it right. The editing of this is just bizarre. Yes! You nailed it right! No, they did not kill off the girl. What? Why did you say dead? She wasn't breathing. She wasn't moving. But there was nobody in the summer house when we found you. Nobody. Jennifer. Jennifer, will you please come in here? Hi, Mom. God, Mom, you're so lame. She's had such a fright. Oh, Jennifer. Jennifer. We must go away. They're all in on it. Chris, they are all in on it. Yeah, it's like a Rosemary's Baby type of thing. Yeah. Oh, good astuteness. Sorry, but I just couldn't stand watching that poor woman another minute. Well, whoever is way ahead of us. Can we make out now? But maybe not for long. Oh, hello. Hello. It just occurred to me, Mr. Tracewell, that Miss Glenn could use one of your tranquilizers. My what? Well, I thought amongst the drugs that you sell, you may have some of those new sedatives that I've heard about made from the oleander. Polyander? Tranquilizers? I'm afraid not. Gets you fucked up. I hope George doesn't need tranquilizers yet. We've only been married a week. What? What a weird thing to say. Congratulations, George. I had no idea this was going to happen. Yes, and as you said, business too, Tom. Well, shall we demonstrate? We might as well. The cat's out of the bag. There's no need to do that, love. Oh, yes, I'm sure she'd like one. Here you are. Sample of lipstick, eyebrow pencil, eyeshadow. Made in France. Finest. Cosmetics. George sells them. We thought Mrs. Faraday might disapprove, as she has such a posh clientele here. Do you want to lift him to the village? No, thank you. Okay. And somehow the cross she's wearing is protecting her or something. They're making that really prominent. Yeah, definitely. Well, good try. Shall we join the others? Good morning, sir. Is your luggage ready? No. But I bet my bill is. I'm sorry to see you go, sir. I'll finish packing for you. Good morning. Pack his bags for him. Hopkins. He's not a bad guy, so it's not the butler. It hasn't been for years. But how do you know that? How do you know he's not a bad guy? But you've got to stay here. That's gonna take a little stalling. Faraday's chomping at the bit to throw us out. Well, if all else fails, I suggest you suddenly become ill. I had doubles in the orange juice. Clever. Good morning. Morning. If you don't feel any better, Tommy, ask Mrs. F for a thermometer. I've been mopping here for twelve years. At this one spot. I can't stop. Over and over again. Man cave. Just knock. I think it's in the sconce. Oh. I'll say this. I don't think a lot of men can wear a turtleneck and a suit jacket. He does all right. He pulls it off, yeah. It's a good look on him. Boo! Don't run up behind him and do around the waist when you tickle somebody. Stop it! I don't believe you. Oh, oh, oh. Ugh. You beat your meat, don't ya? Whoa. Pushy pushy. I don't know when she'll be coming back. I've been mopping here for twelve years. I get together with the other housekeeper. We share mopping stories over coffee. Two weeks ago. Two weeks. She made it seem as though she'd spent her whole life in the village. And I found this in the cottage. It's Parrish, the man who burned to death in the shop. Okay. Who has no lips. So now we know what Duncan's actress friend looked like. Let's not dismiss any item that gives us additional information. Did anything happen here? Well, I had a second vision of Raleigh a little while ago. Only this time he had a meat cleaver in his hand. Does that mean that it means that he's a butcher genuine one hundred percent thank you for spelling it out for sale butcher so all the Parmigiani is come from the rally Milano. Excuse me, Miss Brent. I telephone call. Thank you. But why would you just have a vision of a guy like this guy doing his job? Yeah, I'm the wrong person. I'm the wrong person to ask. Thank you. Goodbye. That was about her car warranty. They're tracking her down everywhere. I'd asked him to trace Duncan Sanford. Duncan Sanford died eight months ago. I know. I wrote that, and it's been bothering me ever since. Do you know what's bothering me? How to tell Andrea. Well, apart from that, he died before he wrote her all those loving letters. Willis, what are you talking about? That's a wheelchair. Come on. Match is doing absolutely nothing. our hero with the match of course what should I do should I watch you look around Her hairspray explodes. Where does this door go? I don't know. Let's kick it open. I don't know. Uh-oh. I'm going to crush them. Yes. Well, now you've really done it. Somebody pointed out that she looks like Eddie Izzard. I know. I was thinking that. People in the chat started saying it. Nice, folks. Where have you been seeing him? Where is he? Marsha, Marsha, Marsha. Look. They can't get out? What? Anyway, when I was in third grade... Mary Jo, I don't know how to tell you this, but there's thirteen minutes left in this. Oh, God. I appreciate the update. Do come in. Louise. I thought Duncan... And I'm oddly hooked. I thought Duncan wanted to see me. Duncan. Duncan is dead. He died eight months ago. Didn't you see the scene? That was when the tone of his letters became different, wasn't it? I'm flattered they made such an impression on you. But Jennifer said he... Jennifer, dear, vulnerable child, said what she was told to say. See, this is why I don't like to talk to people at bed and breakfast, because you get into messes like this. Get roped into their drama. You have to keep arm's length, people. If you take anything away from this movie. It's quite locked. We've come a long way from peignoirs to sleeping in sweatpants and t-shirts. Are we surprised? No. Is there anything to hold on to? Faith. Did he say faith? Yeah. Okay. We're screwed. Jennifer has unusual abilities. You might call them spiritual. Call them what you will. I intend to use them. I won't let you. Jennifer won't let you. Oh, I think she will. Such a sweet child, basically. And to think of her suddenly alone in the world. Of course, you've made the usual provisions for her worldly needs. The other people in the house, they'll wonder where I am. And they shall know that a charming actress whose mind had been going rapidly chose to do away with herself. Now, sign this, and I'll promise to take good care of your daughter. As good care as her very own mother. Only more stable. So much more stable. No! And more fun. No way. Should we boink? Nothing else to do. Okay. Let's try it. I'm willing to try anything. Boinking? All right, then. Now relax. Turn your eyes to the door. Can he teleport somewhere? Hatband monkey. I suppose baffled is a better title than bored. Thank you. Very nice. Should we call it bored? How about baffled? I see a lock. Good. Can you see a bolt, too? Yeah, there's a bolt. And it's bolted. Now, think only of that bolt. Concentrate on the bolt. Okay. I'm concentrating. What was I doing again? Open sesame. Now, what was that for? So they're trying to insert a little cheekiness in there. Yeah. A little bit of his sense of humor. It's very nice. Thank you very much. Let's get out of here. Not wondering what they're doing there. Ugh. yeah suck it Jennifer where's your mother just a little bit dead must be taken from it as the sign of Marcus the wolf must reach out like this wonder woman He's going to do the Polka neck pinch. Come on, Spock. You know what to do. Does Leonard Nimoy have hairy knuckles? Did you see hair on his knuckles? Yeah. It's always a curious thing. uh what's going on here yeah anyone anything anybody oh does that mean the power is gone all they had to do is break it for the power to be dissipated that's the end of that chapter Oh, she's turning old? Oh, the movie's pouring women being so upset about aging. No, not Vera Miles! Cat fight! I'm going to get right. Is he going to punch her off the ledge there? Oh, my. Okay, watch carefully for a skunk person. A guy with an old baby wig on. Totally, and beat the arms. I'm a little healthier. Why don't you throw in? You just stand there and scream when you're supposed to. Look on curiously. Oh. Oh, yeah. Wait. Oh. What? It's the dad. Yeah. What? Parrish. It's a Mission Impossible type ending. Totally. Do you think it was always him? Or did they just do a slight of... Do you see what I'm asking? Yeah. Like, was he always dressed as him? Yeah. Yeah. Because you had me going. That's quite the twist there. Oh. Oh. Oh no! Not again! Yep, of course, of course!

Maggie, four different dolls, each with her own costume, each sold separately. For protecting money, the same team of backroom boys have come up with this ingenious device. The idea of course is to let your attacker have the bag and not only has he those arms to contend with but a trapped hand too. It's impossible for the thief to release his fingers which in any case would probably be crushed until the bag has been unlocked. This means he can't get rid of it nor can he take it very far. With anything up to twenty thousand pounds in fibers in the case, the thief has a big decision to make. Love imparted a supreme gift to a woman in Houston, Texas. They gave her the process for a transformational water to unfold higher spiritual awareness, create greater mental and emotional balance, and cleanse the cells in the body. Here is Fantasia, the gift from the stars. Drink a concentrated four ounce bottle one time. The transformation continues throughout your life. The light within grows brighter.

And slide link in the evolution revolution. You've got my head going flipping round and round, round, round, round again. I want to walk you home from school and tell you that I always want you near me. Woo! Motivation is the key. These specially designed exercises wake kids up to make them take responsibility for their lives. Up to now, we've been creating circulation. Now we're going to apply pressure. Let's apply pressure to those areas which build up tension. Watch carefully. Once you find these points on yourself, you can do this exercise with your eyes open or shut. Press the area on either side of your face about two inches up from the corner of your eye. You'll find a slight indentation here, which you can easily feel if you clench your teeth. Press moderately and hold. Tell yourself, I am calm. And release. Now press the area in front of your ears where your jaw begins. You can feel this indentation if you open your mouth, press moderately and hold. Tell yourself, I am calm. And release. Now lean your head forward slightly, touch the bottom of your ears and move your fingers toward the center of your neck. Lift your head up and feel for the two bumps which are in line with the bottom of your ears. Press under these bumps, moving your head back and forth slightly until you feel your neck muscles. Hold the pressure and tell yourself, I am calm. Inhale, extending your abdomen. And exhale slowly. And release. Good. Yeah, all right, good. I'll tell you what we do. We get some gas, we get out of here before the cops catch us. Move over. I'll move over. Where's the guy? Hey, guy, where are you? Little service here, let's go. Tell you one thing.

Welcome to the Jiffy service station Minus gas station in the West Well, you know our slogan No matter how far you travel on you'll never find a cleaner John Very good. Who wrote that?

What's your name? Clyde. Clyde? What a coincidence. Mine's Bonnie. Hey you, Bonnie, is there any fuzz around here? Only on chilly evenings when I wear my Angora sweater I'll just check under the hood What's he doing up?

Because after he has passed, there is only silence left. Who is that spiritual guy with the hat, as a priest with the red cap? Tigranes. One who is better lost than found. One day you will meet someone faster than you. It will be a very fun day. form around people like Jeffrey Dahmer drives this one. I had this idiot out there that cut right in front of me this morning. Nobody seems to care that you're driving a school bus. And for sure, different attitudes form around things like the driving job itself. That bus they gave me this morning steers like a truck and the clutch is bad. Not my fault if the kids got a jerky ride. Not my fault if all the kids die. If you kids don't shut up right now, I'm going to close all the windows and turn up the heater. When you guys choose the paintings, they always seem to fit. We're coming into some difficult times, I think, and I'd like to think that the guy in office right now just pissed off a whole lot of people. To me, I don't know, it just kind of feels a little bit empowering in a time when I don't feel like I have much control over much of anything at the moment. So I have control over this. I can do this. You know, that's funny you said that, because when I was painting her the first time, I was thinking the same thing. She looked kind of queenly. Majestic, you know? Ooh! oh gracious jessica walter I love that he's still in the cape the giant heavy cape take off the ring there it is the ring fine it won't come off okay Nobody expects the Ironside Inquisition. Yeah, watching him walk around and do nothing is so much more interesting than seeing the killings by the monster. Will he walk into another room? Or stay in this room? Oh my god, the suspense is killing me! Aye, aye, aye. I've got his cataracts. Oh, damn. There, it agrees with me. Oh, now I can't do the Harpo Groucho mirror scene. Jimmy Lee Curtis is in there. Well, that was a productive afternoon. This is like a real estate video. My dinner with Andre didn't have this many indoor scenes. Woo! Stories from the onlines. A week before the airing of the December, twenty twenty four Mads Live Show, a fan who shall remain nameless, wrote to Dumb Industries founder and commander Chris Gersbeck at his encampment in Forest Hills, New York. Friday, December six, twenty twenty four, six thirty eight p.m.. Would it be possible to get a ticket for Tuesday's Mads Live Show? Dot, dot, dot. If so, it would be super appreciated, bro. This missive went unanswered for an entire day. In growing desperation, however, redacted fan pressed on. Saturday, December seventh, twenty-twenty-four, one-oh-eight p.m. Never mind. Dot, dot, dot. Dot, dot, dot. Dot, dot, dot. I'll just get it here. H-T-T-P-S colon forward slash forward slash forum dot super bay dot org. Winky face. Founder Gersbeck answered this volley in kind. December seven, twenty twenty four, one twenty six p.m. I'm always more than happy to add folks to the guest list over them illegally sharing our content. That's why I offer. Saturday, December seventh, twenty twenty four, three fourteen p.m. I asked twice via email dot dot dot dot. Saturday, December seven, twenty-twenty-four, three-sixteen p.m. Ah, so because I didn't respond fast enough, you're going to pirate it. Got it. Saturday, December seventh, twenty-twenty-four, at three-twenty-one p.m. LEMO! Yeah, pretty much. clearly the lines of battle had been drawn there would be no turning back saturday december seventh twenty twenty four at three twenty nine pm plus almost all the material you air on your show is pirated little hypocritical on the morality front don't you think dot dot dot dot question mark faced with this affront founder gersbeck mightily out Chris actually didn't respond. Founder Gersbeck's cold-shoulder offensive did not even begin to quell Redacted's fiery fury. Saturday, December seventh, twenty-twenty-four at three-thirty-one p.m. Airing of Other People Marshall, throwing your crappy commentary on it, and begging for donations every other minute? Dot, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot! If Founder Gersbeck's fingers ever graced a keyboard in reply, his response has been lost to history. For now, the long, hard-fought exchange of blows and emails had come to an end, and Founder Gersbeck lived to stream another day. Dot, dot, dot. Nailed it. What up, everyone? Greetings, everyone.

So yeah, should we get right into it? Should we get into the AUA? Yeah, you want to start or should I? I think you should start. OK. This is the Google Doc that Linda compiled, and it's in no particular order. And I'm just going to start at the jump, at the very beginning, as that. OK. Yes. Landon Newts, our pal. Oh, yes. I really should know the answer to this but would love to hear the story about how you how you chris and mary jo first started working together to create the mjp show and then how you met linda of course and is she as truly terrifying as you make her sound oh that's a good question to launch this chris I'll let I'll let you start with your perception of how it went down of how we met yeah um it was I can't believe it was like over four years ago now we had you as a guest on the mads are back one of the I think it was the night of shorts too one of our earlier ones um and I'd never met you before trace and frank you know we were booking we started booking guests by that point uh we had a new friend come on every month and frank was always kind of in charge of that and he still is actually and um yeah we thought it would be really fun to have you come on the show and we you and I I don't think we I mean over email maybe we exchanged some messages just basic like tech stuff uh and then you came on and as a guest it was like you were just amazing it was super fun we had a a good rapport but you know I didn't think It wasn't like in my head, like, oh, my God, I got to hit up Mary Jo and we got to start doing something like it wasn't like an instant thing. It was just like, well, that was awesome and fun. And then, like, I feel like a couple months later, two or three months later. it was either kevin smith our friend kevin smith who runs the mads facebook group or someone else I can't remember I honestly can't remember but someone said like hey I think mary jo might need some help doing some live streaming stuff and um and they were like hey like you know you should maybe hit her up but I you know I was still relatively new with the mad so I didn't want to like just dive right into another project right away. I was just kind of getting into the groove of doing one monthly show. And then you and I, I think we were just like, hey, let's just get on a call and just bounce some ideas around. And it was like the first call we were... You had some ideas you'd already thought of before, like the Failed Film Festival. I remember you bringing it up. I think we planned on an AMA or a mystery recipe thing. Yeah. And it was still like we had no idea what it was actually going to be. We still don't. I know. And I think we just picked a date. We were just like, hey, how does the... fourth Tuesday in August sound I was like let's just get on the calendar then we have something to work towards right and that was it and then like we just started talking all the time and came to marriage appeal and just kept doing the next show and I think you're absolutely right I think it was Kevin Smith and it was the company that I forget the name for they were trying to launch me as a movie watching host because they had a platform they were trying to launch with different Where you could legally watch movies online in sync with people. And it never got off the ground because I think I tried four times and the technology or the operator always failed. It wasn't always me, but it never launched. And I think that's where Kevin stepped in and was like... Yeah. So... But that's... Yeah, that's... That's pretty much how it happened. And then we just, we want it to be some kind of variety show. So we're like, let's just come up with a new theme every month. Yeah, let's see what happens and flail forward. That's what we've been doing for almost four years now. Okay. Thank you, Landonutes, for your question. All right, here's one. Here's one from the live chat. Kenneth Morgan asks, after riffing on so many educational shorts, which one was the most truly informative? Did you guys just come out with a new short, you and Bridget? Yeah. um and I can't remember oh acting is fun yes acting is fun yes I got that email oh god that's such a great question I'm sorry I am so bad on the fly which one was truly informative um I'll I'll wake up in the middle of the night thinking it's hard with um the shorts because they all kind of blend uh yeah right together too and it's And also, like, none of them are really informative. I can't think of a single short from that era. Yeah, because we have this perspective now. Somebody on the chat said maturing woman. Well, yeah, I was kind of living it. But that is one of my favorites. Not the question, but that is one of my favorites. Krasker's Ghost has the Tupperware one. Was that one you did for Riptrax? That was informative because I love seeing how things are made and manufactured. So thank you for that. mandog says coyly god that short I don't understand the springs the no spring short I don't know like what was supposed to be informative about that I know um are you listening that was a good one the giant walking ears and mouth um okay do you want to thank you kenneth for your question do you want to thank you all right should we Go on Okay, this is from linda's document. and asks us what's the weirdest slash honest job interview question you've been asked, I was recently in a job interview and the hiring board asked me a question that was so out of left field, because I never encountered before, based on my own experience. So. I'd be curious to know what that is. And, and Chris, do you want to answer that one? I'm trying to think of the weirdest question I've ever been asked on an interview, but I've only ever. I mean, you know, there's the interview when you interviewed me for the job and you asked me a lot of weird questions. We did a whole episode on that. Weirdest job to interview. I don't know. It's interviews. I haven't been on like, I feel like I haven't been on like a traditional job interview in like, twenty years probably. Which is a good thing, because they always used to terrify the hell out of me. But, I think the advice my mom always gave me was like, you're just having a conversation with someone. Don't think of it as anything more than that. But I'm trying to think of any weird questions I've ever been asked. As a white male, I've been treated quite well on job interviews. I haven't been harassed or anything. I know there's so many... I've heard some really weird stories, but... Yeah. I think the weirdest one I got, and it had been a while since I had been on a job interview myself, we had moved back to the Twin Cities and I needed a day job because my mom had just died and I just wanted to go somewhere every day and be on automatic. So it had been, pardon me, several years. And I think this is pretty standard now but at the time I was really taken aback the interview is going along normally with all the regular questions and then it was like if you could be any animal what would you be and I was really flustered because I resent sort of gotcha questions yes uh but I think that's the weirdest one Yeah, I've heard weird questions like that. There's some balloon test that Facebook does with their employees. Shut up. There's all these weird things. Or Google has some really bizarre questions that they ask all their employees. Yeah, I don't like that stuff. You know, now that I think of it, I got asked some questions. I had to fill out a form for Mystery Science Theater. And they weren't weird questions, but they were specific, like your music tastes and comedians. It wasn't, I don't want to paint it in a bad light. I think they were just looking for someone who said, you know, that their favorite comedian was... Joel Hodgson. No, no. somebody like the watermelon guy or carrot top. They were looking to kind of screen for that. Yeah. Cool. Job interview questions. Yay. Thank you for your question. And let's do another one. This one's got four likes on it. This is coming from our clubhouse chat from Mrs. Torgo. Mary Jo, where would you take Roddy on your first date? straight to my sofa for a makeout question a makeout session oh gal I don't know um he's he's rather continental so I would probably take him out um if it were in minneapolis for um martinis or go the complete opposite way and take him on a hike to minnehaha falls or something like that He'd love that, I'm sure. That would be amazing. Where would you take him, Chris? Where would I take Roddy McDowell on our first date? I don't know. Maybe a movie. Maybe we'll go just take a stroll in the village, go to some antique shops. Oh, nice. I think a theater date would work well with him. Yeah, go see it. We'll go see the new Glenn Gary, Glenn Ross production. Yeah, I'd love to see that. All right. Shall I go? Yes, you should go. Jeff on blue sky asks question. Would you trade a baby for a penguin? It's not your baby and it's a really cute penguin. I'll let you start Chris. Nah, I can't trade a baby for a penguin, especially if it's not my baby. Well, I hate to offer qualifiers, but it would depend on whose baby, first of all, and to whom I was giving it. So the possibility definitely exists. Would you trade a baby for a really cute penguin? It's not your baby. Yeah, I don't think I would. I'm a little more malleable than that. I'm, I've entertained that idea. Yeah. Uh, oh, here's one. And thank you, Jeff, for your question. Uh, from Gleebster, ADA question. Just how often should I change my toothbrush? um what do they say like once every three months or something that's what I do you know I change mine every time I run out of the tube of toothpaste which is about six six weeks yeah that makes sense yeah how about you do you have an electric toothbrush no okay I'm not into technology I hate technology so it's uh yeah it's like you get the little toothbrush heads you put on and I just change them every few months I don't know should probably do it more often but whatever every couple of years you know every couple years it's like a microwave um Get a new microwave once every ten years. All right. Great question. Thank you. Is that me then? Okay. Yes. Aaron sent this to Linda. Was there ever a segment or riff on MST that you just couldn't get through filming because you or the crew were laughing too hard? I am absolutely sure I'd be hard-pressed to say specifically because it was a relatively common occurrence. Yeah. So sorry to be unhelpful, but absolutely. Absolutely. Oh, I'm sure. Yeah. Especially like that kind of environment. I can just imagine you guys cracking each other up like left and right. And just setting each other off. And it happens now with Bridget a lot where I can't get through a line. And I'm sorry, I can't remember what it is. Thank you for the question. I'm sorry to be unhelpful. Oh, yeah. No, that is good. Let's see. We already did one from Gleepster. Yeah. Just Sonic asks, Hey, Chris, what does Linda look like? Why are you only asking me? Mary Jo hired her. She looks like a lady, you know, between the ages of thirty and sixty, right? No, Chris, you're absolutely right, because she does have that that She could be thirty, she could be almost a senior citizen. Very interesting. It's hard to pick. She's a pretty lady though. I'll say that. Oh no, I can't even, I was going to say if she would just smile more, but that's, that's a thing. Oh my God. What if I said that? Yeah. Women say, or people say women should do, you know, people have said that to me. Oh yeah. And I don't want to say that, but I'm just saying that she has a great smile. And then sometimes, you know, her eyes crinkle and you can kind of see that there's not so much of a strict smile. yeah office running person yes there you know totally okay uh good question thank you yeah great questions should I go yeah okay for both chris and mary jo sent to linda from our pal claudia burton what was your favorite book as a child favorite book as a teen favorite book now Oh, wow. Good question, Claudia. You want to go first? Yeah, I had to think about this. Go ahead. Yeah, let's both do favorite book as a child. You start. Okay. Honestly, it was Les Miserables, and I'm not trying to be fancy or anything. I just don't remember reading any of the kids' books. you know what I mean? And now I'm reading that like Ferdinand, the bull I'd never read, but that's the first book I remember reading is, um, and I'm sure it's not the first book, but I remember reading that in fourth grade and just being blown away. You. Yes. Um, I had a few, I was going to say the giving tree by Shel Silverstein. Um, cause that's just, that book is so great. Um, but then it just popped into my head. Um, The stupids did you ever hear of the stupids? They made a movie Tom Arnold made a movie based on this book series but as a kid in the eighties or these books series of books called the stupids and it's like a family their last name was stupid and They were just like incredibly dumb basically like that was the whole joke was like, how could a family be this dumb? And then Tom Arnold made a movie based on it it wasn't very good Oh surprise the stupids all right as a teen as a teen I read all the nancy drew and um tricksy belden books my sisters had them like all the collections so I read all those yeah I read a lot of goosebumps and uh rl stein and I loved horror stuff at that age um I still do. But yeah, the Goosebumps series, that was a thing. I had a nice collection, filled up a whole bookshelf. Oh, that's so cute. Did you organize them and make sure the spines were all even? Oh, yeah. I was really careful with all my books. I remember all my Roald Dahl books. I love Roald Dahl, too. I kept him in such perfect condition. And I think I was reading The Witches or something, and... my brother was reading the witches like I let him you know he was reading it and he saw like a bug on the wall and he just took my book and killed it with it I just this memory just stuck on my head and I remember just thinking I was like that's my like trying to like did you did you I was pretty upset yeah oh yeah did your parents ruin my nice crisp book that I loved um yeah I don't remember what happened after that I just remember him doing that and me being really upset totally all right what's your favorite book now Oh, God, it's too many. I think the last one that I absolutely was just besotted with and enchanted by and couldn't put down was Life of Pi. But that was several years ago. Oh, I haven't read that. Yeah. I mean, it was just storytelling. Yes. So there are many, but that leaps to mind. Yeah. I think... I think I've said this before, but Stephen King's It always stands out as just... I just love that book so much. And I've read it several times. And it's a huge book. It's like twelve hundred pages or something. Yeah. Wow. But I love... I love that book. Right on. Okay. Thank you for your question, Claudia. That was awesome. Should I ask one now? Go for it. All right. Let's see. Cue the wet sprocket. My question, is the Civil War skit available on the YouTube page? That is a gem. No, not yet. That was the first time we played it for anyone, but we'll probably put that up somewhere for sure. And that was all Josh and Colette. They just... that's based on a real email exchange that I got um a few months ago and I posted about it uh I posted like screenshots of the exchange because it's it's I saw someone in the chat ask while that was playing like Or just saying something like, I'm sorry you have to deal with that many mean people. And it's so rare that that's why I would take a screenshot of it. Because by and large, this community and just the people who tune into this are always super cool and friendly and appreciative and whatever. But it's like one in a thousand, I would say. There's just someone who feels the need to be mean like completely unprompted yeah and outlandishly so I mean the way that escalated just um so yeah I'm always helpless with love with colette and josh's work yeah um we'll put that up somewhere soon that's a good question yeah thank you q all right do you want to go Yes, David Kushmar, I think. Mary Jo, I grew up watching MST three K. It got a little autistic kid through a lot of lonely. That makes my heart burst. Yes. My question, how can I keep helping the show? I don't always have the opportunity to provide direct financial support, but I want to do what I can. Can I donate skills, time, et cetera, and how, and David, that is tremendous. That is really cool. I think, um, technically like when you say, what did he say? Um, Skills, time, et cetera. We will definitely keep that in mind. I mean, we're always kind of right. Oh yeah. I mean, we always have, um, wrangling contributing and offering. Yeah. Like, and so many of you guys are just so damn creative and, uh, and we so appreciate that and that's really everyone we've worked with has been viewers or friends like of the show already and uh it's yeah it's truly amazing like how talented you guys are and like josh and colette just started doing stuff for us and uh and now you know they're they're doing like other like a lot of other things for us so yeah always let us know if you have any special skills yeah absolutely and I'm just so appreciative of the question and also tell people who you might think might be interested in that's honestly the best way you can support the shows is let people know that it's happening and that you enjoy watching it yeah exactly thank you david Because there's so many people who I know would love this show, but they just haven't heard about it yet. So you guys spreading the word, really, that helps a lot. One billion percent. But yeah, don't ever feel like financial support is required. We're just happy you guys are watching this, however you're casting. So lucky. So yeah. So yeah. OK, let's see. Thanks for your question. This is pretty specific. And our associate producer... Matt Reiser, you can let us know in the chat or we can bring them on screen real quick. There's some backstory to this Mary Jo, you should know. I'm listening. OK, buzzer. Thirty one asked, I want to know if Matt's McDonald's is the one on Flatbush Avenue. Now, this came up a few weeks ago where Matt was telling a story how he was going to get McDonald's and it was like seventeen degrees out. And Matt walked all the way to this McDonald's wearing only flip flops. Right. I don't think he's upset if I'm telling this story because we've been talking about this for weeks now. So his feet were like frozen by the time he got there. So he ordered his food and then he was putting it... Putting his hands... Let me finish telling it and then you can chime in. And let me get this overlay off because this looks weird. Putting his hands over his feet to warm them up and then a security guard came over and started asking if he could stop picking his feet in front of people. Or something along those lines. Like, hey, stop doing that. uh and then you know eventually the guy asked matt like let me what's your number like give me your order number and he just went and grabbed it behind the counter that he like handed it to matt and then they had some kind of verbal back and forth and then the guy like ran after him outside of the mcdonald's and said he's gonna kick your ass okay so So let me let me qualify a couple of things there. Yes, I walked there. It was I was wearing flip flops. It's like ten minutes away from my apartment, this McDonald's. And that was a bad mistake. And I got there. My feet were cold. And yeah, and I ordered on the kiosk. I sat down on like a bench far away from everybody. It's eleven in the morning. There's like eight people in there and had my hands like flat on top of it. you know on top of my my toes to try to warm them up and the security guard walks by who is wearing like a hoodie that says security like not a very official looking get up and is like hey man stop digging at your feet and he starts like going off at me and I'm like I'm like oh okay I wanna the security guard I wanna hang out with him he sounds like super funny he's like hey man stop digging that dude yeah I think he literally was like what the is what I'm like I know whatever uh but then uh But then, I don't know, so it came time to, this is a story that doesn't make me sound like a great person, I realize. And then, you know, my order comes up, and the guy looks over by the counter, and he sees, you know, like, because he walked away, so I put my hands back on my feet, because I didn't think it was that big a deal. And he's like, yeah, what's your number? And he kind of looks over at me like he's going to yell at me, but then I hold up my number and my order's there, and he's helping people hand out their orders, and so... As I grab it, he's, like, he's, like, talking shit about me, like, to the other people behind the camera. He's like, yeah, this is the guy where they're digging at his feet. And so I take my thing, and I'm like, assholes, and I'm walking out. And the guy, he, like, storms out after me and is like, I'll come back out here and whoop your ass. Like, he ran out of the McDonald's after me. And, uh, anyway, to answer Ever's question, no, it was not the one on Flatbush Avenue. All that is to say, no, not at all. It was just a very weird situation to be in. Should I have worn flip-flops to this McDonald's and had my hands on top of them? No, it was not an ideal situation. Do I think I deserve to have had a guy come after me and physically threaten me with violence? I also don't think that was... I don't know. It's a story where nobody comes off looking great. But no, it was not that McDonald's. all right I am so glad you you stopped by to share that with us and I just I I couldn't track it but someone in the chat said this needs to be reenacted for a short oh it will we should yeah well thank you matt thank you matt and matt could you at least wear socks with your foot? Well, it's got the thing between the toes. Then you have to have specific socks for that. It was, it was, I don't know. I've seen it done. I think if you really wanted to, maybe I just need to get roomier socks. Or maybe you should get shoes. I don't know. Shoes, that's also, yeah. I do own shoes. I've worn, it was just, you know, sometimes you're just running an errand and you just flip on whatever shoes are around you, you know. It's like when you go to get, like, you know, groceries out of the car, you know, and someone pulls up the car and you just put on whatever shoes are by the door. It was one of those situations. I feel ya. but uh but yeah but since then I have uh contacted mcdonald's corporate out of curiosity and I don't think that they are a real security team that works there so I think that there may be a larger teamster uh conspiracy at play here that I'm oh I've unraveled I look forward to field reports and updates a la joe lawler and the yes thank you matt reiser all right good show everyone talk to you later Oh my God, I'm dying. Okay, so was that a chat question? That was a Clubhouse chat question. Yeah, thank you. Okay, so should I go next? Yes. Okay. Take it away. Gojira, one thousand best cold weather dinner recipe. It was minus forty for a week. I need to know where do you live? The first thing that came to mind is there's always hot dish. But, you know, it sounded really good when you pose that question is like a rotisserie dish. chicken, or the Ina Garten roast chicken with roasted vegetables. Or here in Minnesota, really hot wild rice chicken wild rice soup with more like a great sourdough bread and butter. What would you recommend Chris? I love a bowl of chili, a good bowl of chili. Oh, there you go. Right. I truly love chili. I'm not just saying that because that's Columbo's favorite dish, although I respect him all the more for that. Yeah, that's usually what we do that a lot in the winter. Make a big pot of chili, it feeds you for like three days, you know. And it freezes well. Yeah. Right on. There you go. OK. Here's a quick one from Mira Matt, AMA question. Is that doc five pages single-spaced or double-spaced? It's single-spaced with two tabs in between each question. It's actually like a graph. It's a Google table. who who submitted the question what forum like blue sky and then the question she's very linda's very organized so um here's another one since that was a quick one this one's from treadwell j question for you mj there's a blooper where you hit clayton when he's playing the trombone traceable you when he's playing the trombone and his mouth gushes real blood any memories of this you could share Well, I don't think it gushed. I need to tell myself that because I feel really bad about it, but I question the word gush. But I'm not sure if you mean memories specific to that shoot, but that's the memory. And, you know, we were all really good sports with each other and making each other laugh. So that's not a very helpful answer. Yeah, that is like the worst feeling when you accidentally cause an injury to someone. Because you're so into doing your part. Yeah, yeah. That would have hurt with the trombone. God. All right. Thank you, Chardwell J. Your turn, Mary Jo. Okay. Our friend Heather Perkins, Landon Newts again. Oh, nice. What art, museum stuff, music, or entertainment, book, movie, TV show, MIMAC, do you nerd out on? Something that might surprise us can be more than one. You want to start? I... lately the only thing I've been, there's so many shows I want to watch like, and movies and, you know, like good stuff, like the wire. I've still never seen the wire. Um, I haven't finished better call Saul yet. Like stuff like that. Like things that I really, I'm like, why haven't I watched these things yet? And yet my wife and I spend almost every night watching the circle on Netflix, which is a reality show. Oh, I've heard that we are obsessed with, um, So that's something I nerd out on. I'm trying to think of other stuff. What art? I love the Museum of Moving Image. I was telling you about that. I was just there on Friday with my niece and nephew. But it's this really amazing museum in Astoria, Queens that's got all these awesome film props, costumes. It's all about the history of film and television. great place to go trying to think of other stuff I nerd I mean I nerd out on all the typical stuff too like Star Wars Marvel you're not as into that the whole world though like you're not you're not a total nerd like me Well, I have my nerd nerdisms. I think, you know, I nerd out on, um, museums. I love museums. There's to me, there's no such thing as a bad museum. The small, the big, I, um, I love museums and I also love, and I never know quite how to describe this, but I, um, love, like I mentioned earlier, seeing how things are made and not just made, but like how systems are executed. Last fall, pardon me. Last fall, I took this course through the city of Fridley called citizens academy and it's put on by the public safety department of fridley and you would go once a week and they would have police and fire come in and show you talk about how, how everything works on their end. Does that make any, I wish I had a concise statement for it. So I went on a ride along a cop ride along and I sat in on, um, a nine one one call center. Cause again, I don't know how to exactly articulate that. I love seeing, seeing the inside of things. Does that make sense? Yeah. So I'm a big nerd about that stuff. Like I would sit and watch, um, Like air traffic controllers. Yes. Yes. I would sit and watch a construction site. Yeah. Yeah. I hear it. I would watch, like when I lived in Austin, um, the hubby and I went to, uh, they were demolishing a building and they set, um, dynamite. And so I got us up early cause I wanted to see what, so I'm a nerd about that. Sorry to blather on, but museums and that kind of stuff. That is great. Um, all right. Thank you, Landon. It's uh, let's see. Um, Volcanington girl question from Mary Jo, what's your favorite place to visit? Oh, like city wise? Yeah. Oh, God. Um, Always New York, but I'd say Paris. Oh, no. I'm sorry. I have multiple answers. The North Shore here in Minnesota. I'm sorry. I can never narrow it down. So those are three. The North Shore. How many times have you been to Paris? Twice. Oh, that's awesome. We've only been there once, and it was so long ago. But we had an amazing experience there. I'd love to go back to Paris. Let's do a live Mary Jo Peel show in Paris. You know, one of my bucket list fantasies is to go to Paris and spend six, eight weeks there just being in Paris. Oh, yeah. I know. I was only there for like we were there for like three days or something. Yeah. We did all like the touristy stuff, basically. Oh, yeah. I cannot get enough of it. Yeah. Yeah. All righty. You want to go? Okay, yes. Dana W., is it wrong, via Blue Sky, is it wrong that I not only have that font on my Mac, but will actually use it? And she's referring to the MJP show font. The MJP font, yeah. No, not wrong. Okay. yes it's a great font not wrong pay it's pegno by the way I think that's how you say it spelled p-e-i-g-n-o-t and it's the same font it's it was used very popular in the seventies but uh the mary tyler moore show used it that's why that's how we came up yeah that's how we stole it I mean yes paid homage to it But I see the font everywhere. If you pay attention, it's on a lot of awnings in New York City, I've noticed, because some of them are kind of old school. But yeah, it's widely available. And I love the font. We use it a lot, obviously. And we're trying to keep up with the questions in the chat. Thank you. Sorry, we're not trying to overlook you. And I know Chris and Matt are on top of it, so... We still got a lot here and yeah, we still got some time here. All right. Let's see. Um, David Paul learner asks, uh, for Mary Jo, do you have a favorite place to get tater tots in the twin cities? And Chris can toss in an NYC recommendation. Yes, there is a sort of a bar food place near me called Moe's, M-O-E apostrophe S, that has great tater tots. And it seems like tater tots are really having a moment because they seem to be on a lot of menus along with fries. But Moe's are great. And great burgers, too. Crispy ones. Yeah, just right. And they're not that process-y kind of thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know tater tots are really hit or miss because I avoided them for the longest time just because cafeteria tater tots just grossed me out. They were always mushy or undercooked. And the ones I grew up were frozen orrita tater tots. And then they really elevated their game in restaurants. So that's what I would say. I can't recommend a current place that has good tater tots, but there used to be this punk rock venue in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Shit, what was the name of it? The Trash Bar. And that was like the only food that they served was tater tots. And it was great. They were like amazing tater tots. Excellent. I salute them. All right. Your turn, Mary Jo. Oh, that was me. Okay. Okay, hold on. Okay. Our pal Oliver Langland via Blue Sky. Yes. When you watch an MST three K movie for the first time, were there any scenes that traumatized you or would like to forget? The obvious one is some of the scenes with the little girl, our friend Jackie in Manos. I mean, when we first started airing that movie in the writing room, I think all of us were really stunned and it just sort of, escalated and um now we have a little perspective on it and can laugh about it but yeah when being exposed to it that first time in the writing room the ritual thing and um the little the little girl yeah it's definitely yeah it's definitely weird there was one movie that I think I was reading about this that you guys approved before watching the whole thing and there were some scenes you had to cut out right because it was just like too dark or whatever yeah but yeah I mean Manos it definitely looks like a like a snuff film almost you know with all love and respect Jackie oh Jackie knows more than I know she knows Okay. Here's one from Shade Changing Raven. How many hair colors has Mary Jo had in her lifetime and lengths? I've only... I've only had one hair color. It's just evolved. I mean, I used to be white blonde and now it's gray and brownish. It's just sort of evolved. So I don't know. Can you count each epoch? You've never like dyed your hair or anything? And, um, and lengths. This long and then this. So two lengths. Nice. Interesting question. All right. Your turn, Mary Jane. OK. Crafty Ang via Blue Sky. OK. Oh, I want to know your secret skincare regimen. You've always had such a beautiful skin. Uh, I did not plant that and I'm a little bashful, but honestly, thank you. Genetics, you know, and it's just like soap and water and, um, sunscreen. Finally, I was always trying to tan as a youth, even though I'm so white, that was like in the days of copper tone oil. Right. Yeah. And then started using sunscreen in my early twenties. So that's the long and the short of it. Thank you for asking. I'm really embarrassed. You do have good skin. And lots of moisturizer. Moisturizer. That'll do it. Okay. Let's see. Let's see. Oh, we already answered one from them. Josh Stafford, what do you call dumb industries? I always tell people it's a channel or a streaming service. Both of these descriptors seem slightly wrong. I mean, it's a production company. That's the simple answer, but it's easier to... I lately I've just been saying like content creator, because I don't know how, and like, I know we're not like the typical kind of like YouTube content creators, like, you know, like a Logan Paul type or something, but yeah, it's, that's a good question because we're not, are we, we're kind of a streaming service, but we're not, and we're kind of a channel, but we're not, I don't know. But it's kind of a good question for us to have our elevator speech when we go on all our pitch meetings to the big execs. That's a great question. When people ask me what I do, I've never met someone before. I produce comedy and art live streams. That's the simplest way that someone can understand kind of what I do without knowing anything about Yeah, but it makes perfect sense. Yeah. But yeah, maybe we should come up with some kind of tagline or something. I don't know. Thanks for your question, Josh, though. I like that. All right. Your turn. Pardon me. Pardon me. Amy Lou Mummert via Blue Sky. What did you and Chris accomplish last week? Please provide five bullet points each. Oh my god. It seems like something Linda would ask us to do. I wish I had the address that you're supposed to respond to. Rolling Stone published the email address. I don't know if it leaked or it was just public, but people have just been flooding it with spam. Yeah. Here's what I did. I wrote voting postcards for the Supreme Caport uh election in wisconsin I went to a protest I have called my senators um I mopped my kitchen floor because I was so burned out from dealing with it all but um I know it's a facetious question but oh yeah um god what did I I had a lot last week um let's see I hosted one I hosted three live streams. Um, did some, God, I, I did a lot. No one needs to know. I did a lot of stuff. But it's kind of, it's a great question because it's like, Oh, what, what do you end up doing with your days? Thank you, Amy. Amy Lou. All right. Okay. Here is, Oh, you already answered tater tots. Answer Josh Stafford. Okay. Here's one. Just Jackie B. Oh, Jackie B. Question for Chris and Mary Jo. What is a book or movie you think everyone should see before they die? I have a good answer for that. Say, say. I have to look up the name of it. There's a Dutch movie. that was remade as a american movie called the vanishing and I think the the original dutch movie was translated to the vanishing but um it's just this amazing kind of crime story that unfolds in a way like you would never expect and I I always tell people like that is like that is a movie you need to watch once and you'll probably only want to watch it once, but it like, it sticks with you. Like I could tell you, so I could like describe vividly so many things that happened in that movie after only seeing it once, like six years ago or something. And what is it called? The Vanishing. Oh, God. They remade it in the early nineties with Kiefer Sutherland and Nancy Travis. It was terrible. And it's the same director, same guy who did the Dutch version did the remake. Oh, weird. Okay. Awful. Yeah. But yes, The Vanishing from nineteen eighty eight. Everyone should watch that. What do you think, Mary Jane? I don't know if this is for everyone, but I think every American should read The True History of the United States. Do you know what I'm talking about? That specific book that's an unvarnished, and I can't think of the guy's name who wrote it. And I know somebody in the chat will, but it's an unvarnished, um, look at how the United States came to be with all it's staying. It's yeah. And it's, I think Daniel Howard's in, is that it? Oh, no, that's a people's history. Yes. Oh, okay. Yeah. Cool. Nice. I'll have to check that out. Um, thank you, Jackie. Um, Yeah, thank you, Jaggi. OK, is it your turn? OK. Lori Sutton. To Linda, my dearest Linda, I have several questions for tonight's Ask Us Anything. For Mary Jo, back in MST-III-K days, which non-Pearl character did you most enjoy playing? Also, which non-Pearl sketch was your favorite? Chris, which MST-III character would you have enjoyed playing? Do you want to start? Yeah, I loved Jan in the Pan. Yes, classic. And Amazon Mom with Bridget. Yeah. and favorite non-pearl sketch was that amazon that was amazon okay yeah which character would I have enjoyed playing I mean the easy answer is jonah but um I don't know I uh I guess I mean if I couldn't pick like one of the puppets I'd probably be like forest dr forrester well what if you could pick one of the uh If I could pick one of the puppets, I'd love to do Tom Servo. Yeah, okay. But like that, Kevin's, you know, like just what he did with the character, like it's just such a... especially just from watching it as a kid, when good puppetry or animation or anything is done really well, you forget that it's not real. And that's what happens when I watch MST. The robots seem like they're their own things. And Tom Servo just always seemed like such a fun little goofy guy you'd want to hang out with and watch movies with. Wow, cool. That is so cool, yeah. Let's see if I could do that. If they're casting for a new season or something. Okay. I'll throw my hat in the ring. All right, let's see. Oh, I like this one from Mary Ellen G. What's your least favorite word? Point getter. Point getter. We have this broad, deep English language. And the only phrase we can come up with for someone who accumulates points on a playing field is point getter. You know what word? Yeah, that's bad. It's making me ill to even say it, but what a great question. Okay, Chris, what up? My wife and I, I think we share the same least favorite word, and that word is insufficient. Like just hearing someone say that, like it sends chills down my spine. Not because like it sounds gross or anything. I just hate the idea of like, like, insufficient funds or you know like because of the connotation or it gives you a weird ear feel no because I'm just like scared like you know okay yeah yeah yeah if you ever like overdrawn your bank account or something it's like it's like the scary it's like oh shit yes got it okay so it's like I think it's just the trigger like when I hear that insufficient, or I think when you, in New York city, when you swipe your Metro card and you don't have enough on it, it says like insufficient funds on it or like something like that. It's insufficient. Yeah. I just hate it. I hate the idea of something being insufficient in my life. You know? Oh my gosh. Or like, even though it was just like a, Not that anyone's ever said this during a job review or something, but imagine someone saying, your performance is insufficient or something. It's hard. It's scary. Yeah, you missed, mister. You missed. I can't remember if I ever told you this, but I took this workshop a couple of years ago. that was about race relations. It was here in the Twin Cities right around when the George Floyd was thinking. So I took this workshop and the presenter, a native English speaker, and well-versed in his subject matter, he had done this before, kept saying, discomfortable. He kept saying, now we know a lot of this material will make people discomfortable. We know you're going to be discomfortable. And I could not hear the rest of the presentation. Because I was like, okay, sorry to go off on a rant. But you know what word is really bugging me? The way people are saying unfortunately now about everything. They say, can I get a glass of water? Unfortunately, we're out of water. Yes. No one can just say it's not available or they make it, make it a bigger thing that it is. I can't articulate it, but everything is prefaced with, well, unfortunately it's not unfortunate. It's just a thing. Right. Right. So there's my beef. um yeah I mean there's plenty of words that people just overuse now that drive me up the wall yeah totally that's gonna be a whole show mister yeah oh yeah okay um okay is it me now do yeah you want to do like two more because we got to get to all of our polls and stuff um I think we could do a few more than that okay yeah let's do it is that okay everybody okay uh hold on looking looking looking looking looking um From Chris Tishook, question for Mary Jo. What was it like getting back together with everyone to do Cinematic Titanic so many years later? It was wonderful. It was so much fun. I actually got to do movie riffing. and we got to tour and meet our audiences. It was a really terrific, fun, great time in my life. Thank you for asking. Right, because until then, you never toured, right? Like, MST never did any major tour or anything, right? Correct. So, yeah, that would have been exciting. It was a blast. Yeah. All right, let's see. We've got a few more here from the chat. Okay. Confetti rainbow cake. Mary Jo, if you could visit any place in the world, where would you go? Well, I kind of answered that. Like right now, I could put on the list or change my mind entirely. I would love to go and do a fjords cruise through Norway. Ooh, that sounds fun. Although, I don't know, cruises kind of freak me out a little bit. I know, but the one I'm thinking of is a mail ship, M-A-I-L. So it's a working ship that goes up and down the coast. So yeah, I've never been on a cruise. That's not my favorite thing, but it'd be fun to see the fjords. Nice. OK. All right. Should I do another one? Yes. I don't want this to stop, but I don't want to keep people either. I know. I think we're OK. Here's from our friend. I'm sorry. Go ahead. No, no, no. Go ahead. I'm saying we still got a ton of people watching. So thank you guys. I'm going to do two because one is a really straightforward answer. Scribbler Johnny, Mary Jo, will we ever get to hear songs in the key of B movies again? No, all those CDs are gone. That was a project I did about. Twelve years ago. With a friend of mine, Mike Warren. And then we have a question from. Gina. Karini. What is a good way to build your confidence when you aren't feeling very confident? I'd like to know the answer to that as well. Well, it might be situational. I don't know a lot of specifics, but when I was thinking about this question, when I saw it, I was wondering if it is just showing up to whatever it is. it's really scary, but just the idea of, I wish I had more specifics so I could be more specific, but I think, I don't know, Chris, do you think it's a learned thing? Like whatever's, you know, I'm a very advanced age and what you learn is you always power through stuff. Yeah. That's, uh, That's good advice. I mean, I don't know. Confidence is tricky. It takes a lot to get there. And even then, you're still second-guessing yourself all the time. Oh, I still do. I always rehash everything in my head. But that's what I mean. Like, oh, I guess the world went on. And I think when I was thinking about this question, sorry to talk your faces off, but One of the things that came to mind is I would never want anyone to prevent themselves from experiencing life's riches because they lacked confidence. Like don't cut yourself off because am I making any sense? Yeah. Don't stand in your own way. Yeah. Like if there's something you want to try or do, there's just, I'm sorry, I'm not being very articulate. I just, I just feel you and I feel for you and I wouldn't want you to cut yourself off from anything you wanted to try because you felt like you weren't being confident enough. Yes. That's a good way to put it. Yeah. Sometimes it's just showing up. That's it. One hundred percent. Thank you, Gina. Here's, oh, I like this one from Rushmore Yankee for you, Mary Jo. Have you been to Paisley Park or baptized yourself in Lake Minnetonka? I have never been to Paisley Park. I have not. I have been on a boat on Lake Minnetonka, but I've never baptized myself. I haven't been to Paisley Park yet. I mean, I've only been to Minneapolis twice, but that's something I really want to do. Next time I'm there, we should try to plan that you and I yeah I do that uh because I love love prince I know um he's he's quite a talented he was quite a talented fellow he really was um all right you want to go oh yeah okay um melinda cordage on facebook what is the meaning of life the mary joe peel show need I say more obviously um I think it's showing up. There you go. Showing up. Huge question. And I don't want to lather. Yeah. You know, I always liked the phrase, sorry, you guys. I always liked the phrase. We're all here to walk each other home. That always gets me. Yeah. Totally. Sorry. I was just reading one of these questions and I was like, all right, lay it on me. This is a quick one. I can... Just Sonic. I got another question. Have you ever read or are you familiar with the Nintendo Power Magazine? Yes, I am. I don't think Mary Jail is. Nope. Yeah, I had the first issue when that came out, my brother and I. That was a prized possession. Every month you'd get a new magazine, tell you all the secrets of all the video games. It was great. I don't know, I don't think they do that anymore. It probably wasn't worth it for them to make their own magazine just for their... Well, yeah, and print is dead, so... Yeah, that too. Okay, do you want to... There's a good one towards the bottom here. What's that? Okay. On the Google Doc here. Is that the one you just highlighted? Yeah, yeah. I don't know if you wanted to answer or you want me to just read it. Go ahead. It comes from Matthew Elliott, your friend from BrickTracks. Basil Rathbone or James Darcy? Who is the better Sherlock? Basil Rathbone. Boom. I don't really know much about... I haven't really seen many Sherlock adaptations, so I can't say. Dave Gold asks, when are the two of you starting your own comedy variety show, like Donny and Murray? I mean, that's kind of what the Mary Jo Peel show is. We're in it. Yeah. You're literally watching it right now. But it would be fun to tour dinner theaters, Chris, with our own act. So let's get on that. And have, like, dancers and stuff. Do you know? And I could have gowns designed by Bob Mackie. Oh, yeah. It would just be fun to come out to some kind of choreographed dance and everything. Shut up. You're killing me. And do little corny sketches. Yes. Yes. All right. We'll do that one day. Okay. All right. One more from the chat? Yeah, let's do one more from the chat. I'm so sorry we didn't get to everything, you guys. I know. There's so many here. Yeah, we didn't expect this. We never do. We never expect anything, so. But we still have the Google Doc. Well, Chit Chat and Tidbits will answer a few more of these. And if we could save some of the starred ones on the chat. We might not be able to, but I could take a screenshot too. Okay. Here is one from Krasker's Ghost for you, Mary Jo. Are you working on a book at the moment? I am. Can you tell us anything more? Or is that all you can say? It's still very much unformed, so I wouldn't be able to summarize it. Sure. Yeah, but I am. That's exciting. So we have that to look forward to. Thank you, Krasker's Ghost. My God, thank you so much, everyone, for hanging out with us tonight. As ever. We still got to do the polls and everything. We have a lot of housekeeping. Yes, a lot of housekeeping. Thank you all for the questions, though, and tune in to Chit Chat and Tidbits on Friday. We'll answer some more. I'm taking screenshots of the starred ones right now yes I like this just I just one just saw this in the uh chat chris when you tape these shows does your wife stand in the doorway and give you looks no but there have been a few times where she's had to come in here and tell me something but it's like always you know it throws me off because I'm just like what Okay. First off, Movie Joe Night. We said this up top. Coming up Tuesday, March eighteenth. Movie Joe Night is where Mary Jo and I watch a movie. Mostly, it's usually a movie. Sometimes just an hour of television. But it's something we've never seen before. We know nothing about it. And we just watch it. And you guys are going to vote on what we're watching. And this month is actually a little different. We're still going to put it to a poll. But now the poll options, maybe I should say this up top. So one of the options is to just let our associate producer, Matt Reiser, go nuts and put an hour of television together, which could be, you know, we watched an episode of Fantasy Island. We've watched an episode of Buck Rogers. We could watch like a variety show or something. So it's a wild card. It's kind of a Matt Reiser wild card. And then we have two movies that you guys can also vote on. So there'll be three options tonight. I'm going to play. Let me put the link for the poll in the chat here. But I urge you guys to watch the videos first. I just know people get antsy about the polls. So let me get that up there. Ah, it's growing so fast. And here is option number one, The Intruder Within. Friday, Marcy's getting married. But when Vincent tries to give the bride away, her snobby mother goes into her act. Then, at a special time, someone's finally gone too deep. There's death here. Something's finally been awakened. The intruder within. Followed by the democratic reply to the presidential address. Was that a Keech, like Stacey Keech or the other Keech? I don't know. I kind of want to watch the Democrats' response. I know, me too. It's like from Reagan, I guess. Okay, this one is, so Intruder Within. This next one is called Baffled. Baffled. What? Okay. I couldn't find a short promo for that. That's actually like the opening credits of the movie that we just saw. So those are our three options. I know. I put the link for the poll in the chat. And while that's, you guys are getting your votes in, what do you say we take a look at one of our unboxing videos? And the Matt Reiser wildcard. Baffled and what's the other one? The Intruder Within. Okay. Okay, here's an unboxing video from our friend Rebecca, a.k.a. Doris Leachman. Hey, everyone at Dumb Industries. Do you remember back? I think it was in October, November when there was the Dumb Telethon. And I ordered a bunch of stuff and I said I was going to do an unboxing video. And then I got in my own head about it and procrastinated. And here it is, February. So I'm going to go ahead and do it now because I feel really bad. So the first thing I'm going to open is this box. I don't remember what I ordered anymore. It's been so long. I remember that. This is one of my favorite designs, the Mary Jo Peel mug. So we've got that. And also, this is the Mary Jo Peel crossword. And I thought this made a really cool t-shirt design. So if anyone asks about what it is and what it means, I will be proud to tell them. about Mary Jo being on the TV Guide Crossword Puzzle. I thought that was really neat. And then we've got another in here. Probably... Yes. Tootbag. Because you can't have a telethon without a Tootbag. We learned that from PBS. All right. A couple more things. I'm trying to go fast. I got this for my husband. because we thought the slogan was great. First responders. So now I can give that to him. He's been waiting and waiting and waiting very patiently. And this is the big thing. Jennifer donated a prize for a drawing, and I won. And I was so excited to get it. And then, like I said, I got my own head. So I opened it from the bottom. This was from Jennifer. So thank you, Jennifer. I do really appreciate it. That's my very own limited edition TomServo figurine. So thank you so much, guys. Keep making great content. Bye. Okay, that is the best. I know. Because I so get getting in your head and yet she showed up. We'll take it. We love it. Thank you. Thank you, Rebecca. And yeah, God, the dumb telethon was, it was already like four or five months ago. Can you believe that? Isn't that weird? We'll be doing that again this year too. We're already starting to figure that out. So stay tuned. um okay let's uh put the poll on the screen here and let's see what we're gonna watch uh so again baffled starring leonard nimoy the intruder within starring maybe stacy keach we don't really know and uh third option is matt goes wild let's see with shoes on Whoa, baffled.

Doctor Doom, Captain America, and other action figures from the Marvel Secret Wars to action, each sold separately. New from Mattel. Joni Stark makes you feel he's a cool exec with a heart of steel. As Iron Man, all jets ablaze, he's blank and slick. Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe What are you doing? Stronger than a whale, he can swim anywhere. He can breathe underwater and go flying through the air. The nobles of Perenor, Prince of the Deep, will be very, very famous. The neighbor of Atlantis is the Prince of the Deep. In Captain America II, the U.S. government calls on Steve Rogers to help uncover a sinister plot against the United States by one of the world's deadliest criminals. Miguel? The revolutionary? In his quest for world domination, this man plans on holding the United States hostage. There. In two days, we'll have enough of those aging compound to affect that entire city. He's demanding one billion dollars immediately. Or he'll spread a chemical through a major American city. A chemical that will cause rapid aging. This is a job for Captain America.

When Captain America throws his mighty shield, all those who chose to oppose his shield must yield. If he's led to a fight and a duel is due, then the red and the white and the blue will come through when Captain America throws his mighty shield. Might I say that I'm old-fashioned, très fan ordinaire. That I want a fresh Manhattan with white Anglo-Saxons everywhere. Black Russians, no pink lady, give her the Singapore sling. A Moscow mule is not your baby. So highball the vodka and name your sting. Be a big shot with a bold shot. Be a swine, meet at a pine. Have a shot or a pot or a snot of any sort. Basti spumante, uno chianti. Party fine! I got some economic hocks A gin and tonic on the rocks Where angels fear to tread, I say Choose your booze, let's hit the red-eye! Think of young Diana Durbin And how she sung on rum and bourbon Or enhance your luncheon hour with a planter's punch and a whiskey sour. If you feel like a wreck, try a horse's neck or a sherry with a cherry in the new farmer's size. If you don't name your poison, I'll have to get the boys in the spirit of advantage. If you don't name your poison, I'll have to get the poison. And you'll never see another tequila sun. Live happily ever after with a shabbily and some laughter. Between the sheets is lovely with a filthy blonde and a bottle of bubbly. There's nothing sicker in society than a lack of liquor and sobriety. So, down the hatch, here's mud in your eye Take a bracer with a chaser, wash it down with rye Bottoms up, stirrup cup, it'll put you in the pink And all you have to do is drink, drink, drink, drink, drink Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink Train! Train! Train! Train! Train! Train! Train! Train! Oh no, it's Austin's shitty limits. We could fast forward through this. Man, Soul Train was different back then. No soul. Monkeys in my hat band? He's playing his kneecaps. None of the cover versions are as good as this. I don't think so. If this didn't move the plot forward I wouldn't approve of this. The weird thing is, it's the bongo player that ended up having the big musical career. It's got no neck bone. Coming soon to Weird and Wonderful Wednesday Watchalongs. There is a man who makes the hunters tremble when they meet him. They call him Silence. Because after he has passed, there is only the silence of death. Who is that spiritist guy with the hat, as a priest and with the red cap? Tigrelo. One who is better lost than found. Yeah, great logo. What a logo. The cop is part of the gun. That's awesome. Oh, my God. Randy Newman? Randy Newman? What? Did he do the music for this? Oh, somebody got shot. Oh, no. No one prepared me for Randy Newman. This custody hearing is going really bad. When you guys choose the paintings, they always seem to fit. We're coming into some difficult times, I think, and I'd like to think that the guy in office right now just pissed off a whole lot of people. To me, I don't know, it just kind of feels a little bit empowering in a time when I don't feel like I have much control over much of anything at the moment. So I have control over this. I can do this. You know, that's funny you said that, because when I was painting her the first time, I was thinking the same thing. She looked kind of queenly. Majestic, you know? Nobody expects the Ironside Inquisition. Yeah, watching him walk around and do nothing is so much more interesting than seeing the killings by the monster. Will he walk into another room? Or stay in this room? Oh my god, the suspense is killing me! Aye, aye, aye. I've got his cataracts. Oh, damn. Marriage agrees with me. Oh, now I can't do the Harpo Groucho mirror scene. Jimmy Lee Curtis is in there. Well, that was a productive afternoon. This is like a real estate video. My dinner with Andre didn't have this many indoor scenes. ¶¶ you you Oh, hello, Mary Jo. Hello, Chris Gersbet. Can you hear me? I can. Okay, because we hadn't talked yet, so. Yeah. Hi, everybody. Hey, everyone. How are you doing, Mary Jo? I'm pretty okay. How about you? Pretty okay.

So thanks. your birthday hasn't happened yet though right no but you know okay oh good I got nervous that you were secretly pissed at me for like a week why why I don't want to I know you you have eye anxiety like I do so I don't want to make you nervous you scared me I was like wait your birthday I know it's in fact I mean I know when it is I have it on my calendar and everything, but I got nervous for a second if I missed your birthday just completely. We just do that every time in February. So we're just glad you're here and you're being flexible. Yeah, we appreciate it, everyone. We've got an all-new movie, Joe Knight, tonight. We're going to be watching the the made-for-TV movie Doctor Strange, which neither Mary Jo nor myself have ever seen before. Our associate producer, Matt Reiser, got this copy for us. He shortened it down a little bit, shaved like a good ten minutes off of it, which we always appreciate because... Sometimes these movies aren't very good. No, and I will do you one better. I know absolutely nothing about the MC universe or the whatever other universe it is. So I am coming in very cold. Yeah, so you've never seen, I mean, I'm sure you've seen like one or two Marvel movies, but you've definitely not, you've not seen like all of them. No, but I couldn't tell you, I can only tell you if I enjoyed something, but they never, they never make any sense to me or I don't know what the puzzle pieces are to the whole universe. So this is like one of the first Marvel adaptations like done on the screen, like a live action Marvel adaptation. Oh, okay. interesting and it was was it made for tv it was made it was like cbs I think and it was you know it was marvel licensed out the character so I don't know who actually produced this I think it says universal pictures at the beginning but okay we shall see this was right around the same time as the incredible hulk uh wonder woman there was a spider-man tv show so this I think they were trying to do a doctor strange series that's what this is all about oh okay all right Um, so we're not going to waste too much time, but we do want to just remind folks, we have our AMA or a UA ask us anything and all new episode of the marriage appeal show coming up on Tuesday, uh, February, uh, you guys can send in questions, uh, ahead of time.

All right. Thank you so much to our associate producer, Matt Reiser, for tuning us down. As ever. I hate movies that I have to read. It's like a horror movie. I either want to read a book or watch a movie. Don't make me. Yeah. Some of us. Some of you. Anarchy. Oh. Do you think that's an Egyptian mosque handle? I hope so. Available now in the Thumb Industry store. I love Jessica Walters. This is like her second, at least her second or third movie. Yeah. I mean, she was everything in Arrested Development. And I'm not saying anything new, but every time I watch it, it's amazing. Yeah, she's had an amazing career. She had an amazing career. Played Misty for me. That is a scary movie. That is a great movie. If anyone hasn't seen that. Spooks. Morgan. Master. Raise your head and look up at me. Would it please you to be of service to me? I have a sore throat. It would please me. Five hundred years ago you failed me, Morgan. You allowed the greatest of the sorcerers on Earth to overcome you. My victory was denied to me because of you. Long ages have I contemplated my revenge. This time I will not fail. Then I will send you into the world you have been made child of. Find your enemy under the ancient smokelight. He has read the signs and worked his calculations, and he will be prepared for you. The time now comes when he must pass on the powers entrusted to him. He grows old and weary of the burdens of his life on Earth. Don't we all? Destroy the old man before the powers are past, and victory will be ours. You have three days to accomplish this. If you cannot defeat the old man, then strike against the successor. Who is to be the successor? Look for the ring at the ancient symbol. The one who wears the ring is the one who is chosen. Okay. Let me write this down. Jessica, that belt was supposed to go under the suit. Wardrobe! A very uncomfortable merkin. Not very effective either. Tonight on the Red Shoe Diaries. I never watched that show. I didn't either. What's the premise of it? I mean, I remember it was like a huge HBO show. Yeah, so Matt explained it to me. It's like an anthology show. So think like Tales from the Crypt. But David Duchovny was like the Crypt Keeper. Okay. Every week was like a new scandalous kind of story. Was it all about, like, sex capades? Yeah. Yeah, it was all sex. All sex-related. The sex files, as Oliver O'Leary has said. Alright, yes. Oh, Master, I'm home! I like how casually he just hangs up his hat. Master? I know. Master? Master's alone time. Go away. I can't see anything. And Matt sped up the... Oh, Matt might have sped this part up for us. Thank you, Matt, for getting us... Oh, master. Why? I love that the master has reading glasses. You came in time. I am not the master of my Presbyterian. Could he get those at like CVS? Help me stand. I'm sorry I had burritos. Why don't you be master tonight? Her name is Morgan Le Fay. Stunning her face. And remember it. What does it say? One day you must take up Leidenwald. The Enchantress, Queen of the Sorceress. Yeah. The Dark Queen. You've never shown me this book before. You never noticed it. Do we have any other headshots? It's five hundred years old. Morgan was worshipped by a devil cult in the fifteenth century. And she hasn't aged. Working evil has a few advantages. The barriers are crumbling. Morgan is to be the first of the Dark Ones to cross the threshold. Her purpose is to destroy me. Then let her take my life, then, if she can. Okay. No, you cannot interfere. Not yet. It's an ancient art to use an enemy's strength against him. We have three days. to prepare the initiation. I've had no contact with him for years. All I can assure of is he's safe. Find him. When you have, come back to me. When will Morgan cross the threshold? At the dawn. And you'll meet her alone? None of us is ever alone. Wait. And she's in an office building of some sort or... Oh, this guy. Oh, so he's got the ring? No, is that why I'm in such a hurry? Steven, it is not funny. Head nurse reported you that three times this month. I don't even know about the ring. I'm already lost. When you hit the elevator, you could see the ring with that symbol on it. Oh, okay. It's like the car hood ornament. Yeah. The ring. You're going to get into a lot of trouble. Now, Sarah, if I'd been out with you, I wouldn't have been late. We made a deal. I never agreed to it. I think it's fine for doctors and nurses to fall in love. Falling in love wasn't the question. It was making love. Your outpatients are waiting. I'll tell Head Nurse you're here. Making love? There's just no need for that. I don't think she's religious. I think this character was played by Rachel McAdams in the new Doctor Strange. I have no idea. And I've been drinking milk like they told me to. What else have you been drinking? Not a drop. Mrs. Sullivan? Oh, well, I gotta have a little now and then. Just a little. Look, if you don't stop drinking, you know it's going to kill you. Well, uh, I got the pains and I can't sleep nights. Give me a little of something, Doc, won't you? Just this once? No. Riffcliff, he looks like the love child of Robert Reed and Steve Coon. Yes. I'm trying. I know you are. I've got an extra bed. You can spend the night here and I'll give you a little something to help you sleep. How's that? A little something. Something, something. You're the only one that gives a damn. Here, I'll go get the nurse. She'll knock you right out. Come on in, Mr. Washington. I'll be giving you a damn later. Not a professional actor. In the comics, Doctor Strange is like a surgeon. I guess he's like a psychiatrist in this. Yeah, he seems like sort of a general practitioner. Sort of your family doctor. It's Tom Steiner. look at that beautiful car did you see that she's about to unleash her powers She gave him the Minnesota look. Nice. Oh yeah, Matt said that there's a lot of scenes of Jessica Walter just walking. Good work, Matt. Moving us along. ... I'm just going to pretend like it was an artistic choice to speed up these scenes. Wow, what is going to happen? You shall not pass me, Morgan. Your barriers have fallen. You cannot stop me now. I have cast you out before. You shall not pass by me, Morgan. You forced the choice, old man. Now it begins. Yes! Throwing down the gauntlet. What if they got against this one? I know. Why is she a pawn in this? Oh! oh no no not the master oh no oh no is he dead uh-huh It wasn't my fault. It wasn't. It wasn't my fault. He just came from nowhere and he wasn't... Gracious. I knew it. Yes. Where are my readers? Did I drop my wallet? What happened to the girl? What girl? There's no girl. I didn't see. Did you see a girl? What happened to the girl? Did you see a girl? Hey, buddy, you sure you're all right? I'll walk it up. I'm fine, I'm fine. Oh, quite a fall. I gotta get a salon pass for my hip. He wandered all the way to a back lot. Okay. Was she, like, possessed to throw him over, or was that part of the plan? I can't tell. Wasn't it Jessica Walter, like, succubusing her body or something? Oh, I see. Okay, yeah. I don't know. Don't take me. I mean, I don't know. Jack. When will I stop pushing people over bridges? Oh, hey, come lady. We're not. I think that was a TV like what she was watching. He should probably be walking a little bit because once he sits for that long, intuition was correct. And it really hurt the danger around you. The danger has passed for now. Are you all right? I'm several hundred years too old to be all right. You found him? At Eastside Hospital. He's a resident in the psychiatric department. Good. What happened? I confronted Morgan and provoked her into attacking me. I forced her hand. But the effort cost me more than I had anticipated. And there was a complication. She used a girl as an instrument, an innocent soul. Yeah, yeah. Morgan possessed her body and then discarded it. Who hasn't, though? I mean, Forklift Killer, he's victim blaming himself. I had it coming. She's in danger. Great danger. A psychic assault of those dimensions isn't easily recovered from. She was carrying books. She's undoubtedly a student. A very profound deduction, wouldn't you say, Walt? What can we do for her? Good one. Nothing. But she has become a part of things, and even a pawn. She abused to capture the queen. Well, anyway. What's this? Never noticed this before. Oh. Ah, boring. Journal of American Medicine? What the hell is that doing here? Doctor Strange after dark. He's a little Trapper John MD, too. He's watching Abbott and Costello. so they're both watching the same thing so there's going to be some sort of telecommunication between the oh It's so weird that you would watch stuff on a TV like that compared to what we have now. I know. I mean, I love that generation where, like when I would babysit those TVs, that was standard. I know, that's what I grew up with, like a twenty-seven inch TV. Isn't it weird to think of that? Yeah. Everyone's just got like a home theater in their home now. okay that looks like the mary tyler moore building the mjm or the the news station I don't get why they're linked by Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein. I know. Oh, honey, I know. Poop. Poop. What? It's like I'm running on a treadmill or something. No! No! Okay, you're beside the point, but I like the iron work in the elevator. Ah! Going up? going down seriously the script must have been three pages long because it's all just a lot of just running each direction he runs they run They walk. Hey, you trying to get yourself killed? That wasn't anywhere near her. You're running across the street. I know. He just randomly hit a trash can. What are you doing out here all alone? And she was already well crossing the street. Come on, I better take in the cab. Oh, it's a setup. It's a setup. I know. Don't get in that cab. Don't. He's an operative. Another love theme. The grody taxi love theme. Something wrong, Doctor? No, I just thought I'd seen her before. You wouldn't happen to know her name, would you? She doesn't know it either. Hi. I'm just going to make out with you for a little bit. Doctor's orders. Why can't he? I don't know. He's going to crack her neck. It doesn't seem to be a blow to the head. Did you do a drug screening? I was on the way. Do you know what happened to you? It was an accident. Were you in an accident? I was watching Abbott and Costello. That's the last thing I remember. He was an old man. And a taxi hit a trash can about a mile away from him. And pushed him over everything in front of him. Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha. Can you feel this? She says she's afraid to go to sleep. Is that so? The woman... I dreamed about her. But it wasn't a dream. She was there. She wouldn't let me back into my room. And you're afraid if you go to sleep again? I'll die. That won't happen. Lie down, please. This is like where Wes Craven got the idea for Freddy Krueger. I want a complete workup. Medical EEG, skull films, and that drug screening. I'll go get her admitted. Okay. Mrs. King, Mrs. Elizabeth King, please go to receiving room. Mrs. King. See you in a few minutes, okay? I'm kind of caught up in this. It's good. So he's got a ring too, like I said. But where did he get the ring? That's what I don't get. I don't know. Because I don't know anything about anything. Chris, were you ever of a generation, I think you're way too young, but when that's how nurses dressed, with the little cap? I don't think so, no. I don't think so, me either. Right? I'm considerably older than you, but I don't... There was a time when it was just... I feel like just scrubs is like the normal... Yeah. You're the pupil and the friend, not a servant. Oh, sit down and eat, huh? What about the girl? I found her name and where she lives. And? Apparently she ran out of her room last night and left the door open. No one saw her and she never came back. We should call the police and the hospitals. I have. When you say we, I mean you. Which department? Psychiatric. Was Stephen Strange still on duty? I must go to the hospital immediately. He was on duty all night. That's a good name for a doctor. Stephen Strange, yeah. Or Dr. Strange, you know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I hope your cooking's improved. Dr. Weirdo. Dr. Oddball. Dr. Whack-a-doodle. Here you are. Good morning, Mr. Brown. Oh, they all flew over the cuckoo's nest. Oh, you're the new one. What is it? Your medication. Right, but what is it for? To make you feel better. A little bit of this, a little bit of that. Yes, dear. You'll sleep just fine. I don't want it. Now everything's all right. Go, girl. Go, girl. Oh, no. Why are they restraining her? Yeah. What's wrong? What's wrong? She won't take her medication. You promised me to make me go to sleep. It's all right. You don't have to go to sleep. Nurse, I didn't prescribe any medication. It's standard procedure, doctor. I'd assumed you'd signed for it. Well, you assumed wrong. It's all right now. Don't worry. She should have checked the records. For real. She doesn't get to make that call. You can sit up in bed and watch television. How about that? Would you like some coffee? That's the medication we're talking about. Doctor? Later. Doctor, I've been at this hospital for twenty years. I'm very well aware of that. Burn. Then she should know you can't just give her medications. Good point. That's how he locks the door. Neat! Well, I have some personal matters to attend to. I can return this evening. Set your affairs in order, Ron. In two days' time, we shall both know which path fate has chosen for us. Okay, I guess I'll just walk. Sorry I'm late. Dr. Taylor. Nice of you to join us. Two admissions yesterday. Mrs. Sullivan, second time this month. And a Jane Doe who came up from emergency at three forty-five AM. Sullivan, the alcoholic. Her ulcers were bothering her. She has trouble at night, so I let her sleep over. Isn't that a waste of bed space? She's a chronic. It's worth it to keep her off the sauce a day or two. The sauce. I see it as part of our debt to the community. And the Jane Doe? That's an odd one. Refused medication? I didn't prescribe any medication. Why not? She's amnestic. Confused, frightened. Can't tell us what happened to her. She's what? What did he say? There's no sign of trauma or neurological problem. I didn't want to obscure the picture with medication. So she's been drinking coffee. She's a county problem. Send her to Bellevue for observation. I don't think that's necessary. I'll take her to my house for observation. May I help you, sir? There's a young girl in the psychiatric ward. She was transferred from the emergency room last night. I'm sorry, sir. Visiting hours are from three to six in the afternoon. You'll have to come back later. And also, HIPAA. This is an unusual situation. I have pertinent information about the girl. Dr. Beaton, please call your office immediately. This is an unusual situation. He has pertinent information about the girl. Well, she wouldn't take her meds. Yes? I should like to see this girl, please. I'm sorry. Visiting hours from three to six. She won't take her meds. May I come in? No, she won't take her meds. Come in. Thank you. Excuse me. He should see the doctor in charge. I am the doctor in charge. Have we met before? We may have. This girl was admitted last night, I believe. Do you know her? I know of her. I may be able to help her. Please come into my office. This address is near NYU. Is she a student? I believe so. What can you tell me about her? What can you tell me about her? I asked you first. She's confused, disoriented, essentially psychotic, out of touch with the reality. Great hair. I rate her nine out of ten. Where have you seen me before? Last night, I had an odd sort of dream. This young woman was in it. And you got thrown off of a bridge. So were you. But then you walked away. It was awesome. What happened in the dream? She pushed you over a railing. And someone else was there. Another woman. Just in case the person watching this forgot. I'm going to show you that fifty more times. Let me recap. What it sounds like, I suppose. The events you just described actually took place yesterday afternoon. I wasn't hurt in the accident, but clear I didn't know that. Understandably, it was a tremendous shock to her. It's not surprising she should recall the events in a dream. But you don't understand. It was my dream. But that's impossible, isn't it? You looked in on her dream, in a sense. There would appear to be a psychic bond between you. Did you watch Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein by any chance? Let me ask you this. Who are you? I'm sorry. I neglected to introduce myself. Well, all your insurance needs. Oh, Big Red says Clea is a very big character in the comics, much different from this movie. Interesting. Who's Clea? Is that the woman in the hospital? Okay. What did you do to him? Altered the heartbeat and the respiration. Lowered the blood pressure slightly. I don't think I believe this. Do you believe in evil, Doctor? No. Do you believe in magic? I believe in the human potentiality to do good, to do evil. I believe that children are our future. Unfortunate. It won't make our work any easier. What are you trying to say to me? We can help this girl, Clear Lake. She's in grave danger. And I can promise you, the illness is beyond your capacity to cure by conventional means. I can't force you to do this, but if you choose it of your own free will, then come to my house. But I must warn you, there's danger in it for you. And I'm a hoarder, so... Is that all? So we'll have to meet outside. Well, I think that's enough for now. Good day. Now that's a handshake when music starts emanating from it. Yeah. Don't touch me. You know my name? Lucky guess. They gave me something to keep me awake. But he didn't... I don't think it's working. Well, I'm done here. What'd they give her? A coke? Oh, he's gonna go nuts on that nurse. That's Taylor. Strange. You lied to her. You gave her Thorazine, the one thing she was afraid of. You put her to sleep. A tranquilizer is not a sedative, Doctor. I think I know how to treat this. It's much, much worse. No, she is a patient of this hospital. A public hospital. And a ward of which I happen to be in charge. She was a nuisance on the ward. And she had to go to sleep eventually, didn't she? What did she do? Now, if you'll excuse me. She kept asking us to change the channel. Sorry, Steven. I don't have to put up with this. Yes, you do. He's on the board of governors. Now just don't antagonize him. Antagonize him? He comes in here twice a week with a guilty conscience. I'm on this ward six days out of seven. These are my patients. Steven, just listen to me. Now, you do have a personal interest in this girl. I can see it. Dr. Frank Taylor, please call your office. You've just lost your objectivity. Dr. Frank Taylor. What Taylor did was right. You got the hots for her. It happens all the time. Just come clean about it. Look, I don't like him any better than you do. But we're stuck with him. Chris, did you ever get hooked on a soap opera? I used to watch General Hospital in college. I've gone through phases where, yeah, I've watched... I don't even remember which ones, but yeah, like Days of Our Lives. Yeah, like a daytime soap, not landing. My mom watched General Hospital, too. All My Children, yeah, that's... That's the Thorazine. She's in a coma. Hypertensive shock. I've called for Dr. Taylor. What was your blood pressure? Sixty over twenty? Give me an IV of D-Five-W with an ampulophenolephrine. Yowza! Is that really low? That's really low. If I heard correctly. Yeah. Nice work, guys. Dr. Strange, you're Dr. Right. I'm going to go get Strange. It's Strange in time. So what, he just noticed the embossing? Where are you going? I'll call you later. Keep an eye on her for me, okay? The soundtrack's kind of interesting because, like, a lot of Marvel stuff, like the cartoons, movies, they have, like, that electric guitar kind of thing. And this is, like, one of the first Marvel things, so. Oh. They kind of nailed that, at least. Or maybe they started that. I don't know. Yeah, maybe they riffed off it. Mm-hmm. The ugliest, one of the ugliest houses in America. Have you ever watched that show? Come and do this, buddy. No. Should I? It's crazy. And this looks like one of them that they showed. Retta will be back to let you know if you won. My father gave me this ring. Or actually left it to me as well. The design on it is the same as your attic window. I also saw it on your calling card. Say this. What's going on here? It's also tattooed on my butt. Here, let me show you. I was acquainted with your father. They didn't want to do my butt because it hurts a lot, but it's good. He was a greater man than most people realized, and his death was tragic. Do you have any pets? I do. I have one tattoo. Do you know about his death? Only that he and your mother were killed in an automobile accident, and that you weren't with them. It's supposed to be. I changed my mind at the last minute. How old were you? Eighteen. And now you're thirty-three. It's not on my butt. It's on my leg. What interest did you and my father have in common? Yours. You're a very unusual man. Your father and I both recognized it when you were born. You've been gifted with a clear mind and a love for humanity. Johnny Quest, zero three seven. I thought the same thing. Dead parents, now he's a superhero. Also, some latent talents, which even you are not aware of yet. That much I know. Such as what? Yeah, he's thirty-three. Knowledge doesn't come cheaply. If I were to tell you that ignorance has been a kind of protection for you, and that there's a price you have to pay if you want to understand your destiny. Would you still choose understanding over ignorance? Yes. Nope. I'm out. How much work will it take? We were speaking of evil this afternoon. The girl, Claire, has been touched by evil, used as a pawn and then discarded. But she was only an instrument. I was the intended target. If you understand what's happened to her, why can't you help her? Because the powers of my command are waning. I have nearly served my time. And to rescue clear would expose me to an enemy who would certainly destroy me. But I can work through you. Couldn't we have covered this in an email? Mary Jo, they didn't have an email back then. What are these powers of your command? The hermetic arts. This is before the ability to take the fundamental forces of the universe and direct them, control them with the will. Alchemy, sorcery, magic, or science. It's been called by many names. Car tricks, stuff like that. I don't think I'm ready for that. I think you are. You're telling me you're a sorcerer. Mm-hmm. Pretty cool, huh? What do you think? Was he like you? No. But he gave me the ring. And one day he knew you'd come for me, didn't he? He did. I used to feel I was the one meant to die in that accident, but somehow it was my fault. I believe the accident was intended for you. Your parents died to protect you. Protect me? and my latent talents are very rare indeed well I don't think I want to know about them I came here to try to help a patient of mine I've become a sorcerer's apprentice of course the girl's life is in danger if we're going to help her we should do so quickly Can we do it tomorrow? Can we be quick tomorrow? As a librarian, I'm a doctor, not a sorcerer. Psychiatric. Sarah, Steven. Where are you? At a friend's house. How is she? Nothing's changed, Steven. She's still in a coma. Vital signs? Steady. Blood pressure over eighty. Uh, what's the number where you are? I'll call you if there's any change. I'm on the run. I'll call you. Goodbye. Ready to begin. Put this back on. Oh no. Oh great. Do we have to watch hypnosis? It's already boring enough. as a result of the shock she experienced when evil took possession of her. She's lost. She literally can't find her way back. This is like if an Atlantic article had been brought to the cinema. The psychic link between you will lead your astral body to hers and keep you with her for the journey back. Sure. The ring will serve to protect you. On the higher planes, certain beings exist which are not always friendly. The ring should persuade them to keep their distance. If anything should approach you, or if there's any danger at all, I want you to say exactly these words. In the name of Ryle, scourge of demons, I command you, begone. Say it. In the name of Ryle, scourge of demons, I command you, begone. Must be exactly those ways. How do I get back? He's not going to remember the last word. Will yourself return to Earth? Hold the thought in your mind, and you'll come back. Positive visualization. Ooh, ee, ooh, ah, ah, ding, ding. Oh, I bet this was such funky, crazy, excellent. Tonight, Tuesday, ABC Movie of the Week. Totally. This looks fun. This is like when Matt and I took mushrooms. seriously that's what it was like that's what it felt like in your mouth I wish it's weird because a lot of scenes in this were actually like very similar to the big-budget Doctor Strange movie that they ended up making Is it less boring by chance? Yes. Well, it's Benedict Cumberbatch doing a really bad American accent, but it's enjoyable. It's been six weeks. Come on. Oh, no, he's in one of those Batman title cards. Yeah, I think they had him in front of a green screen for a while. Do you think there's any more that Matt fast-forwarded through? It's gotta be. Come with me, and save yourself. Oh shit, what was the rest? I stepped on a Lego! I think Matt just didn't want to fast-forward this part because it's kind of cool. Yes. No, I do not. I'm not deriding the great Matt Reiser at all. Master, protect me! Go, Belser, answer the turn to your realm. This is her quarterly review. You were born in the darkness. Chris, that's really good. That's really good. She's lying. It's done. Thank God. Do you have any Pepsi? Can I get something to drink? This mortal Stephen Strange is the one chosen by Linna to succeed him. Thrice you had the opportunity to slay him, and thrice you stayed your hand. Why, Morgan? I commanded Belzeroth to get to me. It was he who failed. Do not lie to me, woman. Why have you failed? That is kind of creepy. It is. And the man attracted me. Then you find no satisfaction in my service. I get it. I would feel the warmth of a man's arms again. after all these years alone you bothered human love for power you made a covenant with me johnny winter Speak no pity of me, Morgan. If you desire the mortal, then you may have him, but only once. My lust is satisfied. I hunger for the souls of men, and not until I have them will my hunger be fulfilled. Bring me the old man, or destroy him. But if you cannot overcome the sorcerer, then Stephen Strange must die. Yes, the worst possible thing for a woman. So did she get an actual due date from him? Dr. Cawley. Dr. William Cawley to surgery one. Mrs. Deborah Harris, please call emergency room. Mrs. Deborah Harris. Dr. Thomas Cooper to ER immediately. He is a fox. Let's, you know. How do you feel today? Fine. Hey, hey, hey. My hair is bouncing and behaving. Pretty sure. Mr. Burns. Did you save my life last night? Someone saved my life. I sure did. You didn't believe it. I had this crazy dream. I was lost somewhere until you came for me. I can't explain it. It just feels like you saved my life. He's got a Dr. Forrester Timber. He does. You can go home. Yeah, I know. I've been waiting. For what? You're a tech coach. All the best hospitals have a pool. I don't even think about that. I know. You can wait in the waiting room or you can go down to the pool. There's also a sauna and a hot tub. I gotta get me some more of that dripping stuff. Catwoman? Come in. Thank you. I don't know what you did to me last night. I don't want to know. It doesn't matter. Do it again. I don't want anything more to do with it. Do it again. As you wish. He really is a hoarder. I know. I was thinking that when they had the long shot. This was right. You call me a rational man. I am. I want to stay that way. Doctor. Wrong. Excuse me, master, but let me speak, please. Why do you call him master? It's funny. It's our thing, okay? I can't bow my head to any man and call him master. I believe in myself. I take responsibility for myself. I'm sorry, I can't accept it. The choice is yours. You can get with this, or you can get with that. Goodbye. Take good care. Safe haul. Another one lost to attrition. Faster. I like that they got the squeaking stairs noise. Yeah. What? Stuck? Yeah. Get some soap or hand lotion. Oh, my camera just went off. Oh, yeah. There we go. Cute cat. I wish I could see it. His destiny is sealed. Oh, come on! Oh my god. Visiting hours are closed. Curse your reactions! Oh my god. They're pepper-spraying each other. How much could a banana cost, Michael? Ten dollars? Oh, Wong. Oh, right in the throat. That was just Wong. Sorry. Uh oh! Push the dresser against the door. Lock it. Okay, I'm getting the idea that she's going somewhere. The widow's peak emerges and the push-up bra emerges. Wait, are they in cahoots? No, they're mortal enemies, right? I think so, yeah. But he got dressed up too. Is he the Grand Wizard of the KKK? It tickles. It's not a bad special effect. Really the TV. Yeah You're a crafty old man But if I can't destroy you here, you'll come with me on the wings of demons to a place where I can. But don't forget your reading glasses. Come, Asmodeus, Prince of Hell. It is Morgan who commands you. Come and take him into our domain. What? Now to a Prel commercial. Hair's got some body. It looks like he's not wearing anything. Maybe. Like he just shows up without a shirt. Shows up naked. He's like, got a towel on. Come on in. Oh my god. You look beautiful. Thank you. You look wet. I had to use this as an umbrella. Home, sweet home. You ought to see my place. It makes this look like heaven. I'll be ready in a minute. Can I offer you something? I'd love a hot bath. How about settling for a cold beer? I'd love a hot bath. I know. Who shows up to someone's home and says that? And also, she was his patient. Yeah, it's breaking all kinds of ethical things. And what about HIPAA? I'm just throwing that in there to bug people. Yeah. Oh, no, she didn't. What's the matter? Oh. Oh, Lord, she was in a mirror. Feel free to go through my refrigerator. It's happening again. See, I thought they were going to reveal that Strange was actually Jessica Walter, and that's why he asked for a hot bath. Right. But no, Strange is just a creep who asked to take baths in other people's homes. Come with you where? Just come. Applebees. I'm right in the middle of a dead hay shop. You want to take a bath? Could you run me a bath? I have things to show you. Powers beyond your comprehension. Come. This is a great role. She gets to lay down a lot. Steven. We all have glaucoma down here. Am I pleasing to you? Well, pleasing-ish. You're beautiful. What is it you most desire? Wealth? Lower your head to me. He's already got wealth. Yeah. Oh! Power? When is she going to say the S-E-X word? There you go, you got your power. I'll get some beer. far out. What is it you love? Beauty? Art? News? What? Cable TV. Knowledge? The secrets of the universe? All these I can give to you and more. Cheat code to my favorite video game. What is it you most desire? Quit bugging me about it. No, not that. Why do you draw weight? The touch of your lips is cold. Cold. Who are you? Morgan, you can call me. Are my lips still cold? No. How was your day? Oh gracious. Jessica Walton. Hubba hubba. I love that he's still in the cape, the giant heavy cape. Take off the ring. There it is. The ring. fine it won't come off okay you can remove it glenn there is nothing he has no hold on you take off the ring bye crank our time for things to get strange now nice come with me but we just got here Oh, I thought she nudified. I know. I think she just took off her... Taplet or her shrug? Whatever her thing was. Whatever her thing was. That shawl thing. I don't know. Because it's drafty down there. See him now? He's nothing. nothing to you his hair got puffier yeah it definitely did he had it puffed take off the ring and reign with me stephen on all the thrones of men forever what did she say take off the rings and what me I don't know then perhaps you should join him there take off the ring and throw it into the weapon don't defy me stephen or I'll take my pleasure from you in another way oh She's a woman who knows what she wants. In the name of royal, scourge of demons, I command you, release me! What's the other part? What a novice you are at this, Steven. So much to learn in so little time. Oh, sir. Hi, hi. The flamethrower off. I'm fine. Master. What is going on? I know I never know what's going on, but... No more wire hangers! Beg me to destroy you, Morgan. Pray to me for death. You shall not have it. I will punish you until you scream to me for mercy. Look upon yourself. Cry out, Morgan. Your agony will be a comfort to me. Perhaps if your screaming pleases me, I may yet take pity on... This is going in your personnel file. Look! I will serve you in any way you choose, but give it back to me. Now she can be on Golden Girls. Answer me! Answer me! Don't leave me like this! Answer me! Don't leave me this way. Answer me! It's a nice skylight. I'll give him that. She still has amazing hair. Totally. Weepstar. She kept her figure. She's a trim grandma. Wong, thank God. Help me with him. With whatever just happened. Sunrise. We must be ready by the sunrise. Wait, so long is okay? I don't know. And face the window. These robes Morgan gave them to me. They were due. I tricked you, Stephen Strange. into accepting your destiny. I allowed Morgan to believe she had defeated me. You know how it is. And I gambled that you would not succumb to her. None of this do you understand yet. But this much you know. This is a bad movie. You can go to this moment by forces beyond your control. You were chosen. But the final choice must always be yours. What choice is it that's mine? To serve yourself or all of mankind. Is that a choice? What will I be called upon to do? Become more than a man and renounce such earthly pleasures as are given to men who are only mortal. The pleasure of ignorance or offspring or an easy death. Will I be asked to give up even love? The universe is love that you shall have. I don't understand. I could still have sex, you're saying. I know, let's make the distinction. Let it begin, master. Okay, but what about sex? Not in class, but it's the seventies. I can't give up one. It's a heyday of lovin'. Stephen Strange, you are the one who is chosen. Do you accept the guardianship of the light? Is this his outgoing message? I do accept it. Then let the transmutation begin. Okay, but how long is it going to take? That was easy. I thought he was just wearing like a t-shirt. Oh. I didn't think it would hurt. I think he sped this part out. Thank you, Matt Riser. It is done. Can I go now? I felt tremendous pain. Energies beyond your comprehension were circuited into your body. The circuit held. Good to know. I like the last costume better, though. His pulse is weak. He'll return to us. His work isn't finished yet. What's his blood pressure? You always tell us what the blood pressure is. These are not the affairs of mortal men. He'll recover. A part of him was ripped away and given to you, as it had to be. Have I taken his place? Kind of like a spleen transplant. Have I become the sorcerer? You will be. when the Ancient One has taught you how to use your powers. You're like a child with a loaded gun. Unless you're careful, you can harm yourself or others. You have inherited the powers, but not the knowledge or the wisdom that must accompany them. Yet. What have I become? Let's get you to bed. Honey, we're home from Grandma's. The Harrison girl and Mr. Masterson were discharged yesterday. Good. We're up to seven empty beds. That's the most we've had in a year. Excellent. No admissions yesterday? None. Who was the resident? Dr. Strange. Oh, it isn't Dr. Punctual. Sorry, I'm late. Yeah, that's his little quirk, his little thing. Do you happen to own a watch? Yes. Does it work? Sometimes. I suggest that you look at it sometimes. Sorry. Burned. Attention. Attention all medical students. There will be a lecture in the auditorium at seven p.m. tonight. Attention. Attention all medical students. There will be a lecture in the auditorium at seven p.m. tonight. Was he flirting with that nurse? And now it's no problem. I'm just saying he needs to tie up loose ends. I know a motel down the street. That's my office. We're here interviewing the founder of the Le Fay method, a woman who in the last few days seems to have taken at least a part of New York City by storm, so to speak. Here to tell us more about it is the force behind the Le Fay method, Morgan Le Fay. Miss Le Fay, can you tell us just what it is exactly that the method does? Quite simply, it unlocks the hidden potential within you. It's a way of realizing your own powers and using them to get what you really want out of life. Do you live around here? I'm moving into a house a few blocks over. What are you studying? Would you believe psychology? I'd believe anything. I don't suppose you'd like to help me with my homework sometimes? Doctors aren't supposed to get involved with their patients. But you already did! Yeah, but I'm not your patient anymore. Am I? No, you're not. You know what happened to me? I guess I was just staying up too late and studying too hard. It happens all the time. Don't worry. You're over and it won't come back. I hope not. Well, the actual method differs with each student. The details, for instance, of your method would never be revealed to anyone else. How did she come to learn this method? That's a long story. If you come to one of my seminars, you'll hear all about it. She's selling seminars now. Yeah. appeal to young people. It's the forum. It's the forum. They have less to lose by it. They're interested in new things they're able to do. Of course, it's really dumb. Completely effective, no matter what the age of the student. But it's with the young we expect our greatest results.

Love my tummy, I really got the pain with you Rub my tummy Rub my tummy Rub my tummy Really got no pain, thank you Rub, rub, please rub my tummy Rub, rub, rub my tummy Scratch my back, please rub my tummy What is the trick on it? You throw underhanded? No. Overhanded. It's an overhand throw. The trick is to keep your arm extended and that way you break the microphone. You know, you keep your arm extended and put only one revolution on the... Once around. Once around on the way. But that's indefinite. All right. I didn't even know you were Jewish. Each of us must at some time confront the grim reality of growing old. Steadily, millions of killer bees are swarming northward toward the United States. We have no way to stop the tornado. We can only try to cope with it. Giant tremors can still strike suddenly and without warning. The violent forces of the earth and the sea may combine. sending a tidal wave speeding toward our populated shores. A bit of DNA spliced into a harmless bacterium could create a deadly germ. If this shark is capable of committing such savagery on large animals, one shudders at what it can do to man. If the vast ocean could be pulled toward the beckoning moon, Could we also be at the mercy of her gravity? A sudden gust of wind in a closed room, an unearthly cry in the dead of night. These are physical examples of the ghost reliving its final moments as a human. Given the very real possibility of a catastrophic event, will we be given time to react? When the killer bees will arrive, and exactly how they will behave when they get here, We don't know, but even if we achieve suspended animation, we may not be able to deal with the unknown consequences of frozen immortality. Try as we might to hide the fact, our wrinkling, sagging, and loss of strength tell us undeniably that we are aging. Maybe I should have saved. Those leftover dreams, funny. But here's that rainy day. Here's that rainy day they told me about. And I laughed at the thought that it might turn out this way. Where is that one of those that I threw aside after It brought my love so near Ain't it funny how love becomes a cold rainy day funny that rainy day is here Come on, pow, let's go. I need a little exercise. Take that, pow, and that. Let's see what you can do. You boys, pow, are good. I like a crew who really tries. Come on, pow, let's go. You'll learn a trick or two. Gee, it's funny that only a moment ago, pow, bam, zonk, I dusted myself. And all that But now I see the light. Oh, no, you don't. I'll show you, baby. Lots of fun. Good shot. Thank you. That's one that I forgot. Let's not quit now. I'll let you know when I am done. Come on. What's wrong? You kids don't look so hot. Gosh, I'm hungry. I'd sure like a T-bone steak. Haven't felt this good since Krypton knows when. don't you do that again good night sweet dreams so sorry to mess up your plans but now you know We'll see. Will you welcome, please, Salvador Dali. How do you do? Well, I think you've caught something. I can't help noticing that you have an anteater with you, Mr. Dahl. Oh, please. This is what you might call a squirrely story. Meet Miss Florence Hinton of Grover City, California, who has trained a small platoon of the bushy-tailed little rodents into amiability and a desire to please. Snookums here is a motherly little old lady squirrel with quite a talent for babysitting. A very affectionate type squirrel is Snookums. Jumbo is another member of the pet family, claimed to be the only performing trained squirrels in the world. But Jumbo seems to be ad-libbing his routine. The straight and narrow is not for Jumbo, but it's only innocent mischief. This patriotic little fella earned his name, Sousa. it's the stars and stripes forever for him tell me about your outfits I mean do did you design your own outfits all of you and and tell me what each outfit means and I'll start with you ace well that means this outfit is self-explanatory I mean, you know, this is part of a kind of a V-shape. This is my utility belt, and we don't want to go any below or than my waist area, because that's reserved for concert players. I understand that. And after it's all over, they say, this is what we came for. I stole this from Flash Gordon, and, you know, I have my cape on. But you're kind of like a spaceman. No, actually, I'm a plumber. Listen, I got a little piece of pipe backstage I'd like to have you work on. Tell me about it. You old sweet talker, you. But I'll tell you, I read on the sheet that they gave me where they said that it's hard to get me out of your shell. It's hard for me to talk. Try to cheer down. Try, uh, Billy Button bought a butter biscuit. Oh, Billy Button bought a bus... Would you mind if I sing it? Oh, it's just music, all right. Billy Button bought a buttered biscuit. Did Billy Button buy a buttered biscuit? If Billy Button bought a buttered biscuit, where's the buttered biscuit Billy Button bought? That's excellent. Try this one. Okay. Captain Craxcombe cracked his cousin's coxcomb. Will you knock that? Come on, you've got to be ruthless. All right. Captain Craxcombe cracked his cousin's coxcomb. Did Captain Craxcombe crack his cousin's coxcomb? If Captain Craxcombe cracked his cousin's coxcomb, where's his cousin's coxcomb, Captain Craxcombe? Here's one. Betty bought her, bought some butter, but she said the butter's bitter. If I put it in my batter, it will make my batter bitter. But a bit of better butter, that would make my batter better. So she bought a bit of butter, better than her bitter butter. And she put it in her batter, and the batter was not bitter, so it was better. Betty bought her, bought some better butter. Hey! Remember this one. What? A flea and a fly and a flue. In prison, said, what shall we do? Let us fly, said the flea. Let us flee, said the fly. So they flew to a floor on the flue. Wonderful. Wonderful. You're too much. You like that one? Well, here. Here is the piece de resistance. All right. OK. Moses supposes his toses are roses. But Moses supposes erroneously. That sounds curiously familiar. For Moses, he noses his toeses aren't roses, as Moses supposes his toeses to be. Moses supposes his toeses are roses, but Moses supposes erroneously. A mose is a mose. A rose is a rose. A toes is a toes. Hoop-de-doodle-doodle, Moses supposes his toes are roses, but Moses supposes erroneously. For Moses, he knows his toes are roses, as Moses supposes his toes are roses. Moses, Moses supposes erroneously. Moses, a Moses, a Moses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, a roses, There are other lines we've missed, words to give your tongue a twist. If you're looking for fun, simply sing silly, sappy, happy songs like the ones we saw. Twins, twins, sisters sing tongue twisters too. What's the matter? I'm pregnant. Never kissed me like that before. Wow. I got a lot of catching up to do. I never missed you so much before. you should stay away more often like now where's dan I've been saving up some tongue for him too oh you know dan playboy at heart one week in the mountains and he has to go to las vegas to recuperate rip taylor's playing there what's the matter steve nothing's a matter but are you different I don't know what you mean different I'm still the same old lovable character I always was. It's just not in this movie. Anxiety man. Oh, jeez. Why did I marry Shirley Temple? Excuse me, Sally. He was married to Shirley Temple, folks. Are you fact-checking me? Yes. Oh won't you come and join us? Oh won't you come and join us? That was weird. I'll tell the world. Go ahead. That was weird. That was weird. The video you are watching is an interactive training video. As you are presented with the information in this video, questions will be asked to help you understand important points. When a question is asked, quickly select the answer you think is correct. After a three-second pause, we'll give you the right answer. Make a game of it to see how many questions you can answer correctly. It's fun. Can we start over? Pay attention to the video from this point on, since you never know when a question will be asked. Now proceed with the subject matter of this video. Cover-up specialists are very important people. They need to know hundreds of detailed procedures on how to clean. Do you think anyone's doing more than one wife? I wonder. Some people might. It amazes me when we get at the end of class, I'll see people's paintings and how much extra things that they've put into their painting. You know, they get all these extra... Did you start yesterday? You know, it's... I don't know how they do it so... We do sometimes get paintings in advance if a student knows they can't make it but they want us to show their work. Oh, okay. We've had that happen a couple times. Ah, okay. I just love the wrestling theme. On the sand, and I still have memories of that, of them getting sand in their eyes and stuff. But that was just too much going on in the painting to get it done in this amount of time. I don't want you going up there. Strange people upset her. Just leave her be. Why hasn't he fired her at this point? For real. How's mother? Oh, she's fine. She died a little bit. You said it would be all right. Yeah, it makes her happy. What about you? What makes you happy? Jeez. She's bugging me. Yeah, she's really bright. Just work. It's enough. Is it? It's not. Jeffrey! Is that you? Jeffrey! Chris, that's going to be me when I move in with you and Jennifer. Chris! Did you enjoy your dinner? Yes. Dan! Dan! Did you? Dan, I need some coffee. I need something. I have a wife. Dan! Mother, you were never a cook. Another CEO. A dozen future polo shirts to the rescue. That's a crock. I have to say, this plot is all over the place. Take that, Moses. Do you know any other songs? Classic cloud-based cartoon violence. Okay, cartoon, please stay out of my spank bank. So the old man gave birth to a smaller old man? That's right, kids. They've been fucking. so so Yeah. Live on tape from friendly Minnesota, it's the Mid to Late Evening Show with Mary Jo Peel. Tonight, the child star of Manos the Hands of Fate, Jackie Naaman Jones. Mary Jo's next door neighbor, Ian. Musical guest, Dave Hill. Plus me, Chris Gersbeck and the Chris Gersbeck Orchestra. And now, the reason we're all in this mess, Mary Jo Peel. Oh my god, y'all are so sweet. Well, here we are. Twenty twenty five is underway. Hope it's off to a good start for you or a non eventful start in the best possible way. I personally Don't make New Year's resolutions, right? Right? Right? And Chris, you and I have talked about this. You don't make New Year's resolutions either, right? Jim and January married you. I know. No. Right. That's just embarrassing. Oh, for real. One billion percent. I know. I know. Katie, bar the door. Right? Yeah. But I will say this. I'm always trying to evolve better eating habits. I... talked a little bit about this on the show. There are some foods I just cannot have in the house because I just go crazy on them like some sort of wendigo only with chocolate. Yeah, some of you know what I'm talking about. I have found this though, and this might be useful to you as you start the new year. I have found that six or seven donuts first thing in the morning really curbs my appetite. Well, until breakfast, of course. I tease. I tease donuts. But did you know that scientific studies have found that sugar, as an addiction, is worse than heroin? Yes. Worse than heroin. So I'm going to transition to heroin and then ease off that. Oh, I tease. I tease heroin. Well, I will tell you this. My twenty twenty five got off to kind of a rocky start. I dropped my iPhone in the toilet. No, I know. I don't like telling you about it any more than you like hearing about it. It's so disgusting. That had never happened to me before. I'd never gotten a smartphone wet. And as I understand it, the thing you do is you put your phone in rice to dry it out. You would not believe how many bags of rice it took in the toilet to dry my phone out. But it worked. It was amazing. It worked and I got a nice side dish out of it. And I took it to a holiday potluck. It was really hard too. I didn't know that toilets were so heavy. Well now I know better and I've downloaded the iRice app. Oh, we are so happy you are here with us tonight. We're so happy to see everybody. We have a great show. Coming up for you, we get to say hi to Jackie Neiman Jones, artist, author, child star of Manos, The Hands of Fate. Yes, I love her, yeah. And, are you sitting down? Of course, of course. Brand new neighbor, Ian Perner. Ian Perner, brand new neighbor. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Okay, stay tuned. We'll be right back after this. Take it away, Chris. Your eyes have seen the answer. Your ears have heard the jokes. Now it's time to awaken another sense. The sense of smell. The Mary Jo Peel Egyptian Musk Candle. They've put you in the mood to laugh.

She's an author. And I am delighted to actually talk to her in person, Jackie Naiman Jones. hi mary jo hi jackie I feel like we could just really hang out I know that's why this is so weird and I was telling you before when we got started that I I'm a little nervous because we kind of go back and forth we have facebook interaction email interaction but now having a real conversation no I I feel the same way girlfriend who's your little friend oh this is shanka this is my little girl she's uh She's two years old, almost two and a half years old. Well, she's welcome to join the interview at any time, our chat, any time. I'm so curious about the space of time. You can start anywhere, but I'm so curious about the space of time when you shot the movie, and then it had a new life, right? And I'm guessing... It had a life. I mean, Mystery Science Theater gave it life. Wow. Okay. So, so what were you doing in that, in that meantime, before it, it, uh, had a life and, and you were going on with your life and, um, there was the premier and then what happened in that duration? Yeah. I mean, um, growing up, my family was very different than the other people in our neighborhood. We were the only non-Hispanic family in our neighborhood. And my dad was an actor at the local community theater. And people may not believe this, but I have a statuette of, he won best actor of the year in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in Okay, so Jackie, your life is going on. Does the movie ever come up along the way? Yes, I thought about it growing up. I thought about it a lot. And then, you know, my high school and early days were pre-internet and all that. Totally right. But we were still attached to the wallet with our phones. But I started in my early twenties, I started calling around to university libraries and just trying to find anything about it. And I couldn't find anything anywhere. And then Yeah, in nineteen ninety three, I think it was January when MST put it on and my dad was living in Lincoln City. I was still living in Lincoln City, Oregon. I was still in California. And he called me one day and says, you'll never believe what I just saw because he was an MST fan. He used to watch it. yeah no okay this is okay this is wild it's kind of blowing my mind because then I start thinking about how did that even cross the desk of mystery science theater and I know that at that time frank conniff was in charge of um getting screeners from Comedy Central. They would send them all these VHS. But where did Comedy Central get? I'm just thinking about something that obscure. It screened once. Well, no, I found out through the years that Manos, it made the rounds of the drive-in theaters. Yeah, okay. In Texas. And it was usually something like the third horror movie of the night. And I figured it was the one to get people to go home. Drive them away in droves. You gotta leave these people. Oh my gosh, yes. Then at what point did you see it and did you appreciate the MST treatment? What were your conversations with your dad about it? He loved it. But as soon as I got off the phone with him, I turned on my television because I knew it was on Comedy Central. And Comedy Central had their eight hundred number on the bottom right hand corner of their screen, as I recall. And I called that number, that eight hundred number. I was shaking. I was like, this is the closest I've ever been to it. And I still remember that call. This guy answered the phone like this is when real people answered numbers. And he identified himself as Matthew. He said he was, it was his day off. He just happened to be in the HBO offices that day. And, oh, isn't this weird? And I called, and he answered the phone. And I said, you just showed a movie I've been looking for my whole life. And my family was part of it. And is there any way I can get a copy? And he says, well, what was the name of it? And I told him, and then there's this long pause. And I remember I was just like shaking and I thought, oh shit, he hung up on me or we got disconnected. You know, I'm gonna have to call back. And I'm not a real forward person. So that first phone call was, kind of a push for me you know about things yeah and uh and suddenly blurts out he goes oh my god are you debbie I look at that one I'm like this is not real this can't be real no so totally yeah so he says of course so he uh he He made me a bootleg VHS right there. And he sent it to me. I've still got it here somewhere. That is amazing. So you go in your bedroom and you watch the MST treatment of it. What were you responding to? That A, it was being aired. B, we're ribbing it mercilessly, the whole thing. Do you remember how you were responding? Well, I mean, I was a Fireside Theater fan, so riffing, that You know, I got it. I had never watched Mystery Science Theater before that. But I just loved it. I was so just thrilled, thrilled that they had that it was out there in the world. I enjoyed it very much and have been very fortunate over the years to, to meet so many people. I got to meet Joel. And I got him to write the forward to my book, which I just felt just so honored that he did that. And talked to Frank. And when Dime Industries showed Manos a few years ago, and they got to see the restoration of it instead of the ugly version, the original version. Crazy, yeah. Even Frank, he says, well, now I kind of feel I have to apologize. It's not that bad a movie, you know. It's so wild that it went through a restoration process. It's just all the pieces are so mind-boggling when you step back and look at the big picture and how things come together and what this has meant for... your life and writing the book and having the dumb industry show and then doing the reboots, if you will, or the continuations of Manos, those projects. Jackie, it has been so much fun hanging out with you right now. When is your next painting with Jackie? The next one will be on February eighth, and we have a poll every month. And the poll just went out since we're pre-recording this, so I can't tell you which painting it is yet. But I give people four to six paintings that they can choose every month for their polls. We do a non-MST class, and then we do an MST class. Yeah, I've taken one class and I enjoyed it. I feel very self-conscious about my trying to be artful, but it was so much fun and you just have this great energy and I hope people will join you. Thank you so much for being here. Okay, the next time you're in the Twin Cities and the next time I'm in Oregon, I am going to buy you a coffee. I feel like we have a lot to oh we could we have a lot to visit about yes thank you so much thank you um thank you for having me mary jo I'm just I'm honored to be here with you oh my absolute pleasure bye bye Thoughts.

I know, yes. Yeah, no, I know. I know you all have been waiting for this. I am thrilled and delighted to introduce my next guest. My new neighbor, Ian Perner. Ian Perner, everybody. My new neighbor, my new neighbor. Hi, Ian, nice to see you. Nice to see you. I'm so glad you could make it. Oh, of course, of course. Yeah, how are you? I'm doing very well. Good, I'm glad to hear it, glad to hear it. So Ian, you've been my new neighbor for about six weeks, eight weeks? Yeah, yeah. Eight weeks, okay. What was it like meeting me the first time? A little terrifying, actually. Oh, really? Do tell. So, you know, we had like six people, you know, helping move in. We're in the corner of my house where our two houses kind of join in the hallway that I like to call the DMZ. Yes, we have, correct, throw in here wherever you want, but we have an unusual, not common living situation where it's... Virtually a side-by-side duplex. However, the property line goes straight down right the middle of a shared hallway that goes to either of our garages. Right. So the garages are side-by-side, hallway, property line, and then our units are on either side. So sorry to interrupt you. No, no, not at all. Yeah, we were standing kind of in the entry to the house, kind of standing in the DMZ, and I hear, I don't know if it was like a cough or a hello or something, and I just whip around, and Mary Jo Peel was standing behind me, and I'm like, oh, yes. You're my neighbor. And you have very weirdly direct access to my home. Yeah, yeah, because the doors face each other. So if we both open the door, I know it's happened with my roommate before. Yeah, we both opened the door. Like, hello! Yeah, yeah. So it was kind of intimidating at first, but I'm getting... I always love to hear that. I always love to have the upper hand. A little bit of intimidation. Do tell. Please tell me more. I think, changing gears here a little bit, I think, so you were over here the other night. I put out cheese and hummus and grapes for you. Yeah. And I think what, yeah, I see some people nodding. I think what people really want to know is, I sent some stuff home with you, and people really want to know when I'm going to get my Tupperware back. You know what's really funny? It's clean. It's clean and sitting on my counter. And I meant to bring it. I was going to make it a bit of bringing. I think you should go get it right now. Should I go grab it? Do you guys want me to go grab it? Oh, they do. Yeah, they do. I got a bad guy. This is found. This is not found. Oh, I'm sorry. Perhaps you've noticed. Okay, so I'm going to check that off my discussion list. Oh, good. We got that squared away. Ian, I had this idea for us. We should do a television show, or maybe it's a serial... competing wacky neighbors. Like, you and I get into this really weird... So it seems really funny at first, but then it starts getting ugly. It turns dark. Yeah, ugly. Like, no, I'm the wacky neighbor. I'm the wackiest neighbor. No, I'm the wacky neighbor. And then it just sort of escalates where it gets so... Like, do we do things to be the wacky neighbor? Yeah, because it's a competition. Oh, I see, I see. To each other. Do you see what I'm saying? Oh, yeah, yeah. But instead of the other person being the wacky one, we want to be the most wacky. Yeah. So my point of view would be like, dude, you are the straight man. I'm going to be the wacky neighbor. We both can't be the weird one. Right. So we try to outdo each other. Right. Just do weirder and weirder stuff. Like throwing all of our, like, we dry our underwear on the little thing over between the two. Yeah. weirder and weirder things and then it just I don't know the arc yet but it just escalates into this really like where is this going this is getting truly it turns into almost like sort of like a Jordan Peele sort of like There's the point of reference, yes. Yeah, it starts like it's kind of funny, but then all of a sudden you're just like, no, this is actually a psychological horror film. Yes, and playing on all the tropes of the wacky neighbor. Okay, this is my other show idea before we get on that. Okay, okay. we should give we should give neighbor reviews to all our neighbors like call them in for reviews like the guy across the street like with the flickery lights so far you're keeping up your lawn okay but we're a little concerned and I want to put you on a performance improvement plan giving out pips to everyone I don't know what happened I don't know what happens if we want to lay someone off, though. I don't know how we would go about doing that. We'll find a way. We'll find a way. Well, this has been a delight. Absolutely. Did you eat what I gave you? Yeah. Okay. Absolutely. It was cheese and grapes. How could I not eat those things? I was a little disappointed you weren't all over in my house. Ian Perner, everybody. Yes, Ian. Thank you. Thanks for being here, Ian. Absolutely. Good night, and we'll be right back after this. Greetings, children! Have you ever wanted to torment your toys in the hellfire of agony and defeat? Well, look no further, because there is a new Brother Ichabod doll coming this fall from hell! Don't think so. No eye contact. Crush all your foes under your feet before sending them off to their eternal doom! Yes, let's go. Stomp Iron Man into the dust. Throw Barbie onto a barbecue.

It's time for your feed. The Brother Ichabod doll is available now at Little Demon Toys, Fires and Fun, Build-A-Ghoul Workshop, and Kmart. We love our Brother Ichabod. And we're back, and it gives me great pleasure to introduce our musical guest, Mr. Dave Hill. Oh. Hey, Mary Jo and Chris, to a lesser extent. And also the audience that you guys did violin or don't even get me started. Anyway, it's me, Dave from before, Dave Ho from Show Business. I'm sitting here, coming to you live from my office, playing my, what I believe to be the, goddammit, rarest guitar of all time. It's signed by Ronnie James Dio. and Ira Glass, host of This American Life. I believe it's the only acoustic guitar in the world. I quite like it. Anyway, it's one of my hit songs. Come on, come over, I wanna tell ya We'll make everything our fault And we'll watch all your shows So tell me you won't go till the morning comes Every little thing is gonna be alright Every little thing, but not tonight I forget to say this is every little thing by my band, Valley Lodge. From our first album. Whatever. I once met an escort, outside a divorce court, a good idea or so it seemed. She once was a doctor, in med school they mocked her, her baby would kill. My notes are hurt. You're so down, but so it seems How can you say you don't know what I mean? Have you been this way before? Lying on the floor like a casualty I went to a luncheon on sexual function They said it was all about the taint Well somehow I got scared cause I've never been there Well how could I be so wrong? Every little thing is gonna be alright Every little thing but not tonight Oops! Nailed it. All right. Here we go. Dave Hill, everyone. Thank you, Dave. And that is our show. Chris, won't you play us out? Oh, there we are. Are you there, Mary Jo? I am. Am I not? I don't see you. What? Hold on. Oh, wait. But I see you. Everyone else sees you. It's just me. Hold on. Let me refresh. This is so weird. I've never seen this happen. I'll be right back. There we go. It's all right. Oh, that was so much fun. Thank you everyone for joining us. Yeah. I hope you had fun to watch that. That was such a fun show to put together this past month. And we thank you guys for voting on it. It was a great idea, and it was fun to do. It was really fun to do, and thank you so much to our guests, Jackie Naiman-Jones, Ian Perner, your next-door neighbor, and Dave Hill, of course. And shout-out to Josh and Colette Flowers, who also contributed a lot. Yeah. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Seems like everyone enjoyed it. I was so nervous. I'm so glad. I hope so. It's one of those rare episodes where we kind of just watch you guys watch us in a weird way. Yeah. We were sitting backstage and just watching it play out, which I rarely, we rarely are able to do. You're always engineering it from your side, but I rarely am able to just, you know. Yeah, so thanks for watching live with us, everyone. And we just wanted to come out to do a couple of announcements. Oh, first off, we recorded much longer interviews with both Jackie and Ian. And we were thinking of putting extended versions of those interviews in the Mary Jo Peel Show Clubhouse, which is our clubhouse for where we share everything. I don't know how else to describe it. We've got so many hours of content in the Mary Jo Peel Show Clubhouse now. It's kind of crazy. We're coming up on four years of the show. And we do like three live streams a month. So you do the math. That's a ton. That's a ton of content. And then we've got, should we just announce like the dates we have coming up? Yeah, and we just thought the extended versions of the interviews, for anyone who's interested, we thought you might be interested, so they will be available to you. They're not like huge, like, you know, Will and Ariel Durant, the history of civilization long. They're just longer-ish, so. Yeah, yeah, it's... We were so fortunate that we were able to put a show like this together. And that was our lineup. And it was just so funny. And everyone was giving it their all. Yeah, and Dave Hill. It's so great, right? Loved him. If you're watching, Dave, thank you so much for that. And thank all of you guys for watching, of course. Yeah. as we mentioned, we do a few live streams every month outside of just the marriage appeal show. Uh, so coming up, well, I guess we should announce this first is that we usually do movie Joe night, the third Tuesday of every month, but we're not able to do that this month. So we're moving it to Friday, February, at eight PM Eastern. Um, we're going to do a poll. You guys are going to vote on what we're going to watch. That evening in just a little bit. But that'll be on Friday, February twenty first. And then. So mark your calendars. Yes. And then messaging that just to remind you. But just FYI for February. Yeah. And the next marriage appeals show is going to be on February twenty fifth. And we've decided Mary Jo and I both are super busy. So we're going to do an AMA episode on February twenty fifth. So that'll be the next episode of the Mary Jo Peel show. On the twenty fifth. Kind of an AUA, like ask us anything. Yes. We both have a lot going on in February and we just always love that kind of interaction with all y'all. Yeah, so that's going to be super fun. So come back for that. That'll be right here on Twitch and in the Mary Jo Peel Show Clubhouse. And can I just add something? Sorry to interrupt you. No, go. When we did the focus group last summer, I think a couple of people in the focus group mentioned doing an ask anything sort of around my trajectory, my trajectory. And I just wanted to alert those kind folks. We'd love to have them on board to ask whatever they wanted to ask. Please. Yes. Yeah. And then we're going to do Chit Chat and Tidbits, which is our Clubhouse exclusive live stream. That'll be on Friday, February twenty eighth. So we're basically doing like a bunch of stuff at the end of February. Wow. Twenty first, twenty fifth and twenty eighth. So all within a week. We're going to get sick of each other. We're going to. I was talking about the audience. No, um, never. All right. Chit chat and tidbits, February, and, uh, all right, we got to do a poll right now. So for the next movie, Joe and I know you're just discussing. It's going to fall on Tuesday, or I'm sorry, Friday, February, and we have some options here. I'm going to put the link for this in the chat for everyone. Uh, pin it if you can. Oh, wow. Four, four options. You say went back to the archives and saw, you know, what, uh, What movies have we just kind of taken out of rotation? And so these are our options. We have Hurricane, which is a disaster movie with an exclamation point, so you know it's serious. Can I just say, I love the way you say hurricane. You say it like Frank does. It's the New York thing. Yeah. No, it's great because compared to Minnesota, hurricane, hurricane, hurricane. Yeah. That's funny. There's certain things that I say that trigger other people that I don't, obviously, I don't ever notice it, but Jen's always pointing out stuff because she grew up in New Mexico, so she thinks I talk like a total weirdo. Okay, so Hurricane, our first option. Our second option is Outrage, which is a movie starring Robert Culp. Does that have an exclamation point? How seriously should we take it if it doesn't have an exclamation point? Not serious enough, I guess, right? I mean, Robert Culp is in it, who's a great actor, but no exclamation point. I don't know. They were sick with punctuation by then, I guess. Although that came out before Hurricane, so I don't know. Punctuation was invented before that. And then this next option is Dr. Strange, which is a made for TV movie based on the Marvel character, Dr. Strange. Okay. I've never seen this. I've heard about it. Uh, you know, the new movies, Benedict Cumberbatch plays Dr. Strange. Benedict Cumberbatch is not in this movie. Oh, okay. Cause it, okay. Yeah. I wasn't tracking and I, he was probably a baby when that came out, but, uh, It's supposedly crazy. It's a crazy comic book movie from the seventies before they could really make comic book movies. And then our fourth option is just let Matt go wild. Our associate producer, Matt Riser, who is so good at finding the most bizarre content on the planet. Uh, we just let him put together like an hour of something. It could be a long TV episode. It could be a short movie. It could be any number. It could be a special. We haven't done like a variety special or anything yet. That's true. I would love to, if, if this goes to the vote or gets the vote, I would love to do a variety special, but I don't want to weigh in on Matt. Yeah. And we can't, you know, we have to maintain some level of, uh, We can't be involved with choosing. Right, right. Disinterest. Uninterest. So those are our four options. I put that link in the chat. it in there again and uh while you guys are getting your votes in what do you say we take a look at a recent unboxing video this was sent in to us uh for the marriage appeal show clubhouse secret santa we did a secret santa last month and so many people sent in unboxing videos of them opening up their secret santa presents and uh we didn't get to show this on the last chit chat and tidbits I wanted to show it now this is uh from jessica coyle Hi, it's Jessica Coyle from Albuquerque, New Mexico. And my Secret Santa went a little crazy. I couldn't believe it. I got four different little packages here. All right, let's see what we got. Ooh, this is adorable. I love the Muppet Christmas Carol. It's one of my absolute favorite movies. I'd watch it year round. So thank you for that. My next one here. Oh, they all just say Secret Santa. We'll have to see. Oh, that's so cute. It says, Indus Ferdius, and it's the Swedish chef. I will tell you, half my house is Muppet stuff. It can get a little scary sometimes. So thank you. I love it. And then I got a Dumb Industries package. Let's see what's in here. Oh. Oh. I don't know. It's still just saying Secret Santa on here. And I got the movie Joe Tote bag, which is awesome. In my house, we have a saying, we're lovely bear bearers and we're all about the tote life. For those of you who've seen that episode. So it will definitely live in a place of pride with my totes. And my last one here. I got a roller skate sticker. Ooh, and a little fortune. I'll have to read that later. Is there something else in here that maybe tells me who my Santa is? Oh, it just says, Happy Holidays from your Mary Jo Minion elf buddy, Pal Cryptid Santa. And I got, oh, that's awesome. It's a print of Kermit dressed as David Byrne from Talking Heads, one of my absolute favorite bands. So thank you so much for my loot. This is really awesome. Bye. Aw, Jessica. Oh, my God, the Kermit as David Byrne. Isn't that so cool? Yeah, Polly's. Jessica Coyle, the T-shirt she was wearing was actually, she created that design. It's the cold robe design, and you can still get that at dumb-industries.com. Thank you, Jessica. And a tip of the hat to Dina Dolphin for coordinating the massive undertaking of the Secret Santa and to everyone participating. So Jen participated too, as did I and you did as well. But Dina sent out thank you cards to everyone who participated. Are you serious? Put a little MST trading cards in there for everyone. Dina, I didn't even know that. I know. I was like, Dina, we're supposed to treat you to stuff for doing all this stuff. Thank you for your heart. Wow. Yeah, it was awesome. We're already talking about maybe doing Christmas in July in the clubhouse. So stay tuned for that. All right. Mary Jo, of these four options, what are you most hoping for? I'm kind of leaning toward Hurricane. Hurricane. Okay. Okay. Yeah, I don't think there's any wrong answer here, but... Yeah. All right, let's see. I'm going to hit show results, whatever's in the top spot. Dr. Strange. Okay. By only like ten votes. Oh, letting Matt go wild right behind it. Yeah, very close. Yeah. All right. Outrage by a short shot, long shot. No one's into the outrage. Yeah. I think it looks great, but... I do too, but fear not, it will circle back in a poll, so. Exactly, exactly. Anything else we need to go over? Yeah, I thought there was, but hang on. Oh, I know, I wanted to let you all know, just reiterate... The show that Bill Corbett and I are putting together at the Parkway Theater here in Minneapolis, May, we have a lineup and we're still thinking about if anyone in our audience is coming and there's a quorum or whatever, how we can do more things over the weekend or the ensuing days. So we're just putting that bug in your ear. And the lineup is Bill Corbett, myself, Kevin Murphy, Brandy Brown, Brian Miller and Ben Katzner and Shannon Custer and Eric Weber as a duo. And it's going to be a lot of them are local. Some of them are on Mary Mac. Yeah. Okay. How do you know Ben Katzner? I used to, I knew him when he was doing standup in New York. Does he live out in New York? Yes. He did my garage. Okay. That is wild. Yeah, and he's great. So there's the lineup right now. And keep us posted, or keep your pals posted if you're going to make it out this way. And Chris and I are going to come up with activities and add-ons. Add-on packages. We are crunching the numbers, trying to figure it all out. Yep. Yes, thank you. I flew right past that on the outline. Completely missed it. And when is that going to be again? That is Thursday, May fifteen. The wonderful Parkway Theater in Minneapolis. Nice. Are tickets already available? Not yet, but we're going to keep updating you accordingly. Stay tuned. We'll let you guys know more info ASAP. Also make sure you're on the Dumb Industries newsletter, dumb-industries.com slash newsletter. Oh, are we going to do the mystery gift bag raffle?

What else you got for us, Chris, whilst we're waiting for the results of the poll? um not much I I really I'm so happy with how the episode came out tonight uh I wish I had a little more I kind of like ran out of time I wanted to do more stuff with the chris gersbeck orchestra like my goal was to actually have like four of me and like superimposing me in front of everything because I have like all the musical equipment I could I could have done it. But it's like I would have to get everything out of storage and bring it up here and film. And then my neighbors would have gotten freaked out. I want to validate your disappointment in not having more time. But I also want to tell you that it effing rocked. It was so fun. Those inserts and you jamming. You jamming like the kids do was fantastic. Thank you. It was so much fun. It was very fun. And I grew up watching Letterman and Conan. So those things in SNL, there's a lot of references we tossed in there to various. Yeah, all those beats. A few people in the chat were saying we should maybe just switch to the late night format. Like, that's just the show now. We're the mid to late evening show with Mary Jo. Wow. Well, yeah, I don't know. Yeah, we could. I mean, we could definitely do another late night episode. Yeah. I mean, I loved doing it. I loved talking to Ian and Jackie and the musical, all that. I loved the format because I too was steeped in them. Yeah. But from a different era. But okay, taking it under advisement. um okay it does look drift tracks makes a good point it looks like a lot more work it was a lot of work but yeah it's a lot of moving parts and pieces but I would hate to I love the feedback but I would hate to do that exclusively at the exclusion of uh y'all love the game shows y'all love the recipes exactly so um it's it was a great idea and I'm so glad we did it but it's it I want to put it into circulation yeah totally it's doable now that we've done the first one right so yeah um all right I'm gonna hit draw I'm gonna draw a winner here to be mary joe peel mary joe peel mary joe peel mary joe peel mary joe peel do you see your name at all oh oh close we came very close I did not see my name cycle through mary ellen mary ellen I believe is a big supporter of ours if it's the same mary ellen I'm thinking of yes indeed So thank you so much for watching for entering the contest today.
