[0:00:36 – 0:00:41] Erik: It’s been a minute or two.
[0:00:41 – 0:00:42] Erik: Welcome to the shed.
[0:00:42 – 0:00:44] Erik: It’s TCC.
[0:00:44 – 0:00:45] Erik: It’s hot.
[0:00:46 – 0:00:47] Erik: The bugs are out.
[0:00:48 – 0:00:49] Adam: Big doors open.
[0:00:50 – 0:00:51] Adam: Big doors open.
[0:00:52 – 0:00:53] Adam: There’s a dog warning.
[0:00:53 – 0:00:55] Adam: This is Tomahome in the day, and there is a…
[0:00:56 – 0:01:22] Adam: dog barking warning for this episode it’s too hot to bark it’s too hot to bark and we’re too early it’s feeding time’s not for a couple hours i think we’re safe but you know you might hear some extra sounds of nature in the background tonight good welcome patrons sorry we have been neglecting you but you’re gonna get uh you’re gonna get some hot hot content today i’m well rested and uh feeling fresh today
[0:01:23 – 0:01:24] Adam: Yeah, let us never speak of… Like the last episode.
[0:01:25 – 0:01:27] Erik: Let us never speak of episode 198.
[0:01:27 – 0:01:28] Adam: 198 should just be…
[0:01:28 – 0:01:33] Adam: I’ve been imploring Eric to just delete it or just somehow mute my entire mic.
[0:01:33 – 0:01:35] Adam: Not my best performance.
[0:01:35 – 0:01:37] Adam: I was literally on no sleep for two days.
[0:01:37 – 0:01:38] Adam: I’m on no sleep.
[0:01:38 – 0:01:41] Adam: And then you give me a couple of wines and beers and holy moly.
[0:01:42 – 0:01:42] Adam: So…
[0:01:43 – 0:01:44] Adam: Yeah, what are we even talking about?
[0:01:44 – 0:01:45] Adam: We’re not speaking of it.
[0:01:46 – 0:01:47] Adam: Don’t speak of it.
[0:01:47 – 0:01:56] Erik: Off mic, you can, or later tonight, or any time before this Sunday, just shoot me a message on what you prefer that episode title to be called.
[0:01:57 – 0:01:57] Erik: Oh, yeah.
[0:01:58 – 0:02:01] Erik: We can go with that, because I don’t think anything jumped off the page to me.
[0:02:01 – 0:02:03] Adam: Yeah, my notes are indecipherable.
[0:02:04 – 0:02:06] Adam: Let’s just womp them.
[0:02:06 – 0:02:07] Adam: I didn’t even know I had crayons out here.
[0:02:08 – 0:02:09] Adam: Just crayons.
[0:02:09 – 0:02:11] Adam: Yeah, notes in crayon.
[0:02:11 – 0:02:15] Adam: That’s never a good sign when you look in your notebook and everything’s in crayon the next morning.
[0:02:15 – 0:02:17] Erik: Are your TCC notes in crayon?
[0:02:17 – 0:02:21] Adam: No, I did these typed up on the phone, so I should do every show in with.
[0:02:21 – 0:02:24] Adam: Although, I gotta say, I know there’s a lot of typos in this.
[0:02:25 – 0:02:33] Adam: I watched Fly Away Home the night before episode 198 on No Sleep, staying up late to get that in in time, and then…
[0:02:34 – 0:02:37] Adam: Parlayed that into more no sleep and another huge shift.
[0:02:37 – 0:02:43] Adam: And yeah, so my notes are, I can read them at least, but they might not make any sense.
[0:02:45 – 0:02:50] Erik: Well, it’s because of this TCC and the viewing of Fly Away Home.
[0:02:50 – 0:02:52] Erik: Starring Ellen Page.
[0:02:52 – 0:02:54] Erik: Starring Ellen Page.
[0:02:55 – 0:02:56] Erik: Dolph Lundgren.
[0:02:56 – 0:02:58] Erik: Dolph Lundgren.
[0:02:58 – 0:03:01] Erik: Oh, man, I got some things to say on cool cutoff shirt man.
[0:03:01 – 0:03:03] Erik: That’s his story.
[0:03:04 – 0:03:04] Erik: You can blame.
[0:03:04 – 0:03:05] Adam: Wet bird.
[0:03:06 – 0:03:06] Erik: Wet goose.
[0:03:06 – 0:03:08] Adam: Does he have a name?
[0:03:08 – 0:03:11] Adam: His codename is wet goose, I think.
[0:03:11 – 0:03:12] Erik: Cool goose.
[0:03:12 – 0:03:13] Adam: Cool goose.
[0:03:13 – 0:03:22] Erik: But you can blame the viewing for this TCC on the quality of Adam’s reading ability from 198.
[0:03:23 – 0:03:26] Erik: And tumble homies, you’re the only ones that are going to get that info.
[0:03:27 – 0:03:29] Erik: We’re not going to explain it.
[0:03:29 – 0:03:31] Erik: We can be like, oh, sorry.
[0:03:31 – 0:03:32] Erik: Yeah, we’re just going to.
[0:03:32 – 0:03:33] Erik: Bad job.
[0:03:33 – 0:03:34] Erik: We didn’t do a bad job.
[0:03:34 – 0:03:38] Adam: I’m going to rate myself as a D- on that episode.
[0:03:38 – 0:03:41] Adam: It was probably one of my lowest rated episodes.
[0:03:41 – 0:03:43] Adam: The Sabermetrics, don’t lie.
[0:03:44 – 0:03:45] Adam: It was a rat shit effort.
[0:03:46 – 0:03:47] Adam: It was an effort.
[0:03:48 – 0:03:48] Adam: It was just not a good one.
[0:03:48 – 0:03:52] Adam: 198 episodes plus all the TCZs.
[0:03:52 – 0:03:55] Adam: They’re not all going to be gems, frankly.
[0:03:55 – 0:03:59] Adam: I didn’t have it mentally or physically or in any way.
[0:03:59 – 0:04:01] Adam: You’re going to have that, I guess.
[0:04:02 – 0:04:06] Erik: Yeah, you were off the charts below CPACs that night.
[0:04:06 – 0:04:08] Erik: Content provided above expected.
[0:04:08 – 0:04:10] Adam: Yeah, no, it was truly bad.
[0:04:10 – 0:04:14] Adam: Anybody could have been put in front of this microphone and put out better content.
[0:04:14 – 0:04:14] Adam: Yeah.
[0:04:14 – 0:04:16] Adam: Yeah, the content was bad.
[0:04:16 – 0:04:17] Adam: Sorry, folks.
[0:04:17 – 0:04:22] Adam: You know, I’ll come back stronger in 199.
[0:04:22 – 0:04:24] Adam: Well, of course, we got episode 200 coming up.
[0:04:24 – 0:04:27] Adam: Eric and I were just chatting about our plans for old 200.
[0:04:29 – 0:04:33] Adam: Hopefully put something together, you know, go above and beyond for 200.
[0:04:33 – 0:04:37] Adam: That’d be, you know, my CPAPs would be off the charts for that one.
[0:04:37 – 0:04:38] Adam: What was it?
[0:04:38 – 0:04:39] Erik: CPACs.
[0:04:39 – 0:04:39] Erik: CPACs.
[0:04:39 – 0:04:40] Erik: Yeah.
[0:04:40 – 0:04:43] Erik: Content provided above expected.
[0:04:43 – 0:04:43] UNKNOWN: Yeah.
[0:04:44 – 0:04:47] Adam: Billy Bean would love my effort from episode 200.
[0:04:47 – 0:04:48] Adam: Yeah.
[0:04:49 – 0:04:52] Adam: You’re going to sign me up for a long-term deal in AAA ball.
[0:04:52 – 0:04:53] Adam: Yeah.
[0:04:53 – 0:04:54] Erik: Coming this fall.
[0:04:54 – 0:04:55] Adam: This guy just gets on base.
[0:04:56 – 0:04:57] Adam: He just knocks them out of the park.
[0:04:57 – 0:04:58] Adam: Yeah.
[0:04:58 – 0:05:00] Adam: Game-winning home run touchdowns.
[0:05:00 – 0:05:00] Adam: Mm-hmm.
[0:05:01 – 0:05:05] Erik: It’s all about the hot dogs eaten along the way.
[0:05:05 – 0:05:05] Adam: That’s right.
[0:05:06 – 0:05:07] Adam: Mom died, didn’t she?
[0:05:08 – 0:05:08] Adam: Yeah.
[0:05:08 – 0:05:09] Adam: Mom died.
[0:05:09 – 0:05:11] Adam: In New Zealand?
[0:05:11 – 0:05:13] Erik: What a hell of a start to this movie.
[0:05:13 – 0:05:14] Erik: Let’s get into it.
[0:05:14 – 0:05:15] Erik: Sarah McLachlan?
[0:05:15 – 0:05:16] Erik: Cinema classics.
[0:05:16 – 0:05:17] Erik: Sarah McLachlan as the mom.
[0:05:18 – 0:05:18] UNKNOWN: What?
[0:05:20 – 0:05:22] Adam: What was the…
[0:05:22 – 0:05:25] Adam: It wasn’t like Mary Carpenter or something was the song.
[0:05:25 – 0:05:29] Adam: It just starts out with a horrible song and a slow motion car crash.
[0:05:29 – 0:05:35] Erik: Horrible Bambi starts, like full blown Bambi start before the credits are done.
[0:05:35 – 0:05:38] Adam: Was it just… Mary Chapin Carpenter fairly well.
[0:05:39 – 0:05:39] Erik: Yeah.
[0:05:40 – 0:05:40] Adam: Dramatic.
[0:05:40 – 0:05:42] Adam: Did you watch it with the closed captions on?
[0:05:42 – 0:05:43] Erik: I didn’t watch it with subtitles.
[0:05:43 – 0:05:45] Erik: I watched it full volume.
[0:05:46 – 0:05:48] Adam: Yeah, you didn’t have to tell me it was dramatic.
[0:05:48 – 0:05:51] Adam: I got that from the tone of the song.
[0:05:53 – 0:05:55] Erik: Very well.
[0:05:55 – 0:05:55] Erik: Jeez.
[0:05:56 – 0:05:56] Erik: I was like, what is this?
[0:05:56 – 0:05:58] Erik: Laying it on thick.
[0:05:58 – 0:06:02] Erik: I thought for a second it was going to transition into Shenandoah.
[0:06:02 – 0:06:05] Erik: It kind of sounded like it had that vibe.
[0:06:05 – 0:06:09] Adam: Yeah, I thought they were making a maple syrup sandwich.
[0:06:09 – 0:06:10] Adam: We’re laying it on thick.
[0:06:10 – 0:06:28] Adam: thick they were laying it on so i didn’t figure it out till later they were in the whole night because then they they arrive in ontario one month later like what oh you missed the yeah it starts with the uh they’re in new zealand that just says new zealand i missed that one i guess i was still i was getting my popcorn ready or something i’m
[0:06:30 – 0:06:31] Adam: Never start a movie until you’re really ready.
[0:06:32 – 0:06:41] Erik: Yeah, I didn’t really understand that whole concept of, like, right away I thought maybe the movie was trying to imply that her mom was, like, distant by being on the phone.
[0:06:41 – 0:06:45] Erik: But then also Anna Paquin, a.k.a.
[0:06:45 – 0:06:47] Erik: Ellen Page, she had, like, headphones on.
[0:06:48 – 0:06:49] Erik: Paquin, the real Paige.
[0:06:49 – 0:06:50] Erik: The real Paige.
[0:06:50 – 0:06:57] Erik: I was like, so was it the distracted driving on the mother’s part or was it just a rogue semi?
[0:06:58 – 0:07:00] Erik: Because it seemed like it could have been a combination of things.
[0:07:00 – 0:07:02] Erik: That thing showed up out of nowhere.
[0:07:02 – 0:07:02] Adam: Yeah.
[0:07:03 – 0:07:06] Erik: Still with that very sad music playing.
[0:07:06 – 0:07:08] Adam: Kiwi trucking company.
[0:07:09 – 0:07:09] Adam: Yeah.
[0:07:09 – 0:07:10] Erik: Not good.
[0:07:10 – 0:07:10] Erik: Right.
[0:07:10 – 0:07:12] Adam: I’m going to blame the semi, I guess.
[0:07:12 – 0:07:13] Adam: Blame the truck.
[0:07:15 – 0:07:16] Adam: Anyways, mom’s dead.
[0:07:16 – 0:07:17] Adam: Right off the bat.
[0:07:17 – 0:07:18] Adam: Mom died.
[0:07:18 – 0:07:19] Adam: And then…
[0:07:20 – 0:07:21] Adam: Yeah, and Jeff Daniels shows up.
[0:07:22 – 0:07:26] Erik: Sleeping in the most awkward position on a hospital bed I think I’ve ever seen.
[0:07:27 – 0:07:42] Erik: It’s like the position you would take if you were praying as a child and you used to thank Jesus for all of the Froot Loops you got today and the fully stocked cabinet full of Gushers.
[0:07:42 – 0:07:46] Erik: And then you just like kind of like trail off and fall asleep.
[0:07:46 – 0:07:47] Erik: That’s how he was sleeping.
[0:07:47 – 0:07:53] Erik: But I feel like most kids that are praying next to their beds like that are probably like on a carpeted floor.
[0:07:54 – 0:08:01] Erik: Hospital room floors, I don’t think legally can have a comfortable kneeling position.
[0:08:02 – 0:08:04] Adam: Hospital rooms are not legally allowed to be comfortable in any way.
[0:08:05 – 0:08:06] Adam: In any way, right.
[0:08:06 – 0:08:07] Adam: Got to be easy to hose them down.
[0:08:08 – 0:08:08] Adam: Spray them down.
[0:08:08 – 0:08:38] Erik: Ontario one month later I love they’re walking up to the camera he’s like there was a foot of snow here when we left that’s very yeah that was I’ve had that happen yeah that hit me in the I know exactly how you feel exactly I also didn’t appreciate the vagueness of Ontario one month Ontario it’s like a third of Canada Ontario Ontario yeah where do you who knows where they were in Ontario well it said that there was in the credits it said that it was filmed an hour north of Toronto okay out in the sticks then
[0:08:38 – 0:08:43] Erik: So relatively accurate when they did have to make their final fly.
[0:08:43 – 0:08:43] Erik: Yeah.
[0:08:43 – 0:08:44] Erik: Okay.
[0:08:44 – 0:08:45] Adam: That does make sense then.
[0:08:45 – 0:08:45] Adam: Yeah.
[0:08:45 – 0:08:45] Adam: I guess.
[0:08:46 – 0:08:48] Adam: Was there maps involved in the flight plan?
[0:08:48 – 0:08:49] Adam: I mean, I don’t feel like.
[0:08:49 – 0:08:51] Erik: It seemed pretty.
[0:08:51 – 0:08:56] Adam: I wanted to see like in the old time movies where they have like the model airplane kind of going across a map.
[0:08:56 – 0:08:59] Adam: Like I wish I wish I would have had some map sequences in there.
[0:08:59 – 0:09:14] Erik: Well, they did draw the lines on the map at one point to kind of imply how they were going, but I never saw when they were actually flying any of them consulting maps or even considering the weather.
[0:09:16 – 0:09:20] Adam: The fact that they just ended up in downtown Baltimore tells me they were just kind of winging it.
[0:09:20 – 0:09:21] Adam: Flying by night.
[0:09:21 – 0:09:24] Adam: Flying their wings whichever way the breeze goes.
[0:09:25 – 0:09:25] Erik: Right.
[0:09:25 – 0:09:28] Adam: Were the geese leading them or were they actually leading the geese?
[0:09:28 – 0:09:29] Adam: I’m not sure at this point.
[0:09:29 – 0:09:30] Adam: Yeah.
[0:09:30 – 0:09:31] Adam: Geese wanted to go to see Baltimore.
[0:09:32 – 0:09:56] Erik: beautiful yeah beautiful those beautiful downtown streets of baltimore the baltimore river was very beautiful i don’t know if that’s a real river they made baltimore seem like it was just a massive like it looked like new york city with those canyons of buildings baltimore never gets enough shrift they’re part of the multiplex or whatever they call that super mega mega city
[0:09:56 – 0:09:59] Adam: I think Baltimore is properly shrifted, though, at this point.
[0:10:00 – 0:10:02] Adam: Is Baltimore coming back up?
[0:10:02 – 0:10:03] Adam: Baltimore, you’re shining.
[0:10:04 – 0:10:05] Adam: I think I saw a thing.
[0:10:06 – 0:10:06] Erik: You’re shining.
[0:10:06 – 0:10:16] Erik: I don’t know if it was Reddit or YouTube, but it was like local Baltimoreans responding to how they are portrayed in The Wire.
[0:10:16 – 0:10:19] Erik: I was like, I’m not even going to watch this.
[0:10:19 – 0:10:20] Adam: I should, but I’m not.
[0:10:20 – 0:10:24] Adam: I’m going to assume The Wire got it right and these people are crybabies.
[0:10:24 – 0:10:39] Erik: Yeah, or it’s also a TV show, so not necessarily beholden to them to provide 100% accuracy on a city that I… Oh, you guys hear that?
[0:10:39 – 0:10:40] Erik: Hear that wildlife?
[0:10:40 – 0:10:40] Erik: Yeah.
[0:10:41 – 0:10:43] Erik: Got some nice bird action out there tonight.
[0:10:44 – 0:10:47] Erik: I was referencing the fly that was just right in front of the microphone, but…
[0:10:47 – 0:10:48] Adam: I couldn’t hear that one.
[0:10:48 – 0:10:49] Adam: Hmm.
[0:10:50 – 0:10:51] Adam: Seven minutes in, finally got a goose.
[0:10:52 – 0:10:53] Adam: Took seven minutes to see a goose.
[0:10:54 – 0:10:55] Adam: I have timestamps on all the goose sightings.
[0:10:56 – 0:10:56] Erik: Nice.
[0:10:56 – 0:11:06] Erik: Well, let’s start with just a little bit of a discussion because I don’t think if we just go blow by blow on the movie, we can fully appreciate.
[0:11:06 – 0:11:08] Erik: First of all, this is very much a kid’s movie.
[0:11:08 – 0:11:09] Adam: Yeah, it wasn’t very good.
[0:11:10 – 0:11:12] Adam: I mean, I didn’t really enjoy it all that much.
[0:11:12 – 0:11:14] Erik: I didn’t enjoy it a ton, but there were some moments.
[0:11:14 – 0:11:15] Adam: Yeah, it’s moments.
[0:11:15 – 0:11:17] Adam: The geese were very well done.
[0:11:17 – 0:11:18] Adam: The geese were very well done.
[0:11:18 – 0:11:24] Adam: Whoever’s in charge, I didn’t stick around for the credits on this one, but whoever’s the geese wrangler on this movie, A plus job.
[0:11:24 – 0:11:29] Erik: They were actually replied or referred to as geese wranglers.
[0:11:29 – 0:11:30] Erik: That is for sure.
[0:11:30 – 0:11:32] Adam: I just randomly guessed that.
[0:11:32 – 0:11:33] Adam: I’m pleased to know that.
[0:11:33 – 0:11:33] Adam: Yeah.
[0:11:33 – 0:11:42] Erik: But the geese wranglers were essentially the family and or people involved in what this movie is based on.
[0:11:42 – 0:11:43] Adam: Oh, okay.
[0:11:43 – 0:11:44] Adam: So it was the real geese?
[0:11:44 – 0:11:45] Adam: Yeah.
[0:11:45 – 0:11:46] Adam: That was Igor?
[0:11:46 – 0:11:51] Erik: They used a lot of imprinted geese to get these scenes shot.
[0:11:51 – 0:11:57] Adam: I would be more interested to watch a documentary on how the geese were wrangled for this movie rather than watch this movie again.
[0:11:57 – 0:11:58] Erik: Yeah, no, for sure.
[0:11:59 – 0:12:09] Erik: And I would hope and I feel like I think that it probably was in conjunction with like a lesson because I feel like this was a movie that was shown in middle school and high school.
[0:12:09 – 0:12:09] Erik: Right.
[0:12:09 – 0:12:18] Erik: And was probably like, okay, we’re going to do the lesson on how geese imprint and nature versus nurture.
[0:12:18 – 0:12:23] Erik: And then teacher’s going to go out for some Thursday night margaritas.
[0:12:24 – 0:12:27] Erik: And then Friday, we’re going to watch Fly Away Home with the lights dimmed.
[0:12:28 – 0:12:28] Erik: Perfect.
[0:12:28 – 0:12:32] Erik: So it’s like, yeah, you’re going to learn and then you’re going to get to watch a movie.
[0:12:33 – 0:12:40] Adam: I’d say the geese in Flyway Home were on par or right up there with the trout from a river run through it.
[0:12:41 – 0:12:43] Adam: Equally impressive.
[0:12:44 – 0:12:45] Adam: Wonderful.
[0:12:45 – 0:12:48] Adam: This probably wasn’t shot in HD.
[0:12:48 – 0:12:53] Adam: Wonderful feathers and up close goose zoom in shots.
[0:12:53 – 0:12:54] Adam: Very nicely done.
[0:12:54 – 0:12:58] Erik: There were some very, very well shot aerial.
[0:12:59 – 0:13:01] Erik: Anytime you film, anytime you…
[0:13:03 – 0:13:07] Erik: To make a movie on film, it’s always in HD.
[0:13:09 – 0:13:10] Erik: So, like, anytime… Oh, right.
[0:13:10 – 0:13:19] Erik: That’s why if you watch, like, The Godfather in HD, it’s like, well, they weren’t filming at 1080p, but it’s on film, so it’s… You can render it.
[0:13:19 – 0:13:19] Erik: Yeah.
[0:13:20 – 0:13:20] Erik: I see.
[0:13:20 – 0:13:21] Erik: Well, it’s not even a rendering.
[0:13:21 – 0:13:22] Erik: It’s just a… That’s it.
[0:13:22 – 0:13:24] Erik: Well, so, like, when it…
[0:13:24 – 0:13:26] Erik: This is an entirely side tangent, but…
[0:13:26 – 0:13:27] Erik: It’s a tangent.
[0:13:27 – 0:13:31] Erik: It was filmed in HD, essentially, because it was on film, but…
[0:13:31 – 0:13:32] Erik: It’s inherently HD.
[0:13:32 – 0:13:34] Erik: It’s inherently HD, but the…
[0:13:35 – 0:14:03] Erik: the tvs at people’s homes where they had to like right i see dumb it down so now that’s why it’s so amazing when you see a movie shot on film and it’s shown in hd it’s like well right how crazy is this that people when these movies came out in the 60s 70s and 80s just had to watch it on like a little tube tv at like 380p or whatever it’s like well you’re not getting makes me want to fucking barf yeah basically watching the godfather in 380 yeah mm-hmm
[0:14:04 – 0:14:08] Erik: Yeah, so let’s just, for a second, what’s dad’s name?
[0:14:08 – 0:14:10] Adam: Andy?
[0:14:10 – 0:14:10] Adam: No idea.
[0:14:10 – 0:14:11] Adam: I got nothing.
[0:14:11 – 0:14:12] Adam: But he…
[0:14:12 – 0:14:14] Adam: I don’t think I have it in the notes at all.
[0:14:15 – 0:14:16] Adam: He’s…
[0:14:16 – 0:14:18] Adam: I know what his partner’s name is.
[0:14:19 – 0:14:21] Erik: Who has no backstory.
[0:14:21 – 0:14:23] Adam: A Canadian slut.
[0:14:23 – 0:14:24] Adam: Susan.
[0:14:24 – 0:14:26] Adam: Maybe a… Oh, nice welcome gift.
[0:14:27 – 0:14:28] Adam: Go eat shit, Susan.
[0:14:28 – 0:14:29] Adam: Yeah.
[0:14:29 – 0:14:32] Erik: Maybe a sentence about their relationship, but…
[0:14:32 – 0:14:33] Erik: So you live here as well?
[0:14:35 – 0:14:35] Erik: Well, yes.
[0:14:36 – 0:14:40] Erik: Yeah, she just wakes up at her eccentric father’s home.
[0:14:41 – 0:14:42] Erik: And like, what’s his story?
[0:14:43 – 0:14:45] Erik: He’s a goblin miniature maker.
[0:14:45 – 0:14:47] Adam: He makes dragon sculptures.
[0:14:48 – 0:14:54] Erik: But then he’s also got like a motorcycle in the living room and the lunar module.
[0:14:54 – 0:14:55] Erik: The lunar lander.
[0:14:55 – 0:14:56] Erik: Which I didn’t realize.
[0:14:56 – 0:14:58] Erik: I had to look this up.
[0:14:58 – 0:14:59] Erik: I looked it up too.
[0:14:59 – 0:15:00] Erik: They left it behind.
[0:15:00 – 0:15:00] Erik: I was like, what?
[0:15:00 – 0:15:01] Erik: They left them behind?
[0:15:02 – 0:15:04] Erik: How did they get picked up from the moon?
[0:15:05 – 0:15:09] Adam: They just left the lander down there and then there’s a little shooter back up out.
[0:15:10 – 0:15:11] Adam: Left the bottom down there.
[0:15:11 – 0:15:21] Erik: That seems like that’s completely underrepresented when it comes to just how insane flying to the moon and space travel is.
[0:15:21 – 0:15:24] Erik: First of all, getting off of… Soft landings on the moon.
[0:15:24 – 0:15:25] Adam: Soft landings.
[0:15:26 – 0:15:27] Adam: 22 of them in history now.
[0:15:28 – 0:15:29] Adam: I think I looked this up.
[0:15:29 – 0:15:31] Adam: I was definitely reading on all the different soft landings on the moon.
[0:15:31 – 0:15:32] Adam: By the Americans?
[0:15:32 – 0:15:33] Adam: Just by everyone.
[0:15:33 – 0:15:34] Adam: Chinese are up there now, too.
[0:15:34 – 0:15:35] Erik: Yeah, I looked it up.
[0:15:35 – 0:15:51] Erik: There’s an entire Wikipedia page on left-behind items on the moon, and it specifically said that we are not including, and they listed a bunch of small things, and then also was listed golf balls hit by Alan Shepard when they went up there and golfed.
[0:15:51 – 0:15:53] Adam: Yeah, look at that.
[0:15:53 – 0:15:58] Adam: That was the heyday of golf, of ball golf for sure.
[0:15:58 – 0:16:03] Erik: Yeah, that’s when we get to the point where we could fly to the moon, drive around in a car, and hit golf balls just to see.
[0:16:04 – 0:16:05] Erik: We can do it.
[0:16:05 – 0:16:07] Erik: And the lunar car, too, is up there still.
[0:16:07 – 0:16:08] Adam: Must have been nice.
[0:16:09 – 0:16:10] Erik: Must have been nice.
[0:16:10 – 0:16:11] Erik: I just watched the…
[0:16:11 – 0:16:15] Erik: This is an older documentary, but I’m…
[0:16:16 – 0:16:23] Erik: regularly obsessed and much enamored by just the…
[0:16:25 – 0:16:48] Erik: concept of flight whether that’s on earth or in space like i love doing my flight disaster research yeah and just learning the way that they learn about what went wrong and how they fixed it but i’ve been i watched a four-part series on the challenger oh no flight which is just crazy and like
[0:16:49 – 0:17:01] Erik: Just boiled down to NASA essentially ignoring research and information from their after booster company that was like, you shouldn’t fly at these low temperatures.
[0:17:01 – 0:17:04] Erik: Our O-rings aren’t – they’re questionable.
[0:17:04 – 0:17:09] Erik: And this is a part of the shuttle that should be like above reproach.
[0:17:09 – 0:17:10] Erik: There should be no –
[0:17:10 – 0:17:13] Erik: There’s not even a point in time where there needs to be redundancy.
[0:17:13 – 0:17:20] Erik: This should be 100% fail-safe, and they still went ahead with it, and everybody knows the rest and just the whole…
[0:17:21 – 0:17:31] Erik: Just absolutely devastating experience for those family members that were at the launch site to just see that thing explode.
[0:17:31 – 0:17:39] Erik: But anyway, I didn’t realize that all of the Apollo missions, they just left behind lunar modules.
[0:17:39 – 0:17:40] Erik: They’re all just up there.
[0:17:40 – 0:17:44] Erik: But it’s never explained as to why he felt the need to build a replica.
[0:17:44 – 0:17:44] Erik: Yeah.
[0:17:45 – 0:17:48] Adam: I think he just says he’s like, because it’s still up there.
[0:17:48 – 0:17:50] Adam: I figured we needed one down here.
[0:17:52 – 0:17:56] Adam: The mind of a dragon sculptor, Eric, you know, he doesn’t think like you and I.
[0:17:57 – 0:17:57] Adam: Right.
[0:17:57 – 0:18:01] Adam: He’s an artist, as was his mother in New Zealand.
[0:18:01 – 0:18:04] Adam: Two artists together making up a goose whisperer.
[0:18:05 – 0:18:09] Erik: Yeah, those artists are just a little too independent sometimes.
[0:18:09 – 0:18:11] Erik: Yep, sounds about right.
[0:18:12 – 0:18:26] Erik: But he seems, for a dad of a daughter who, by all accounts, he did spend some time with, seems like he’s not taking into consideration her current experience with losing a mother.
[0:18:27 – 0:18:33] Erik: Because he gets up, in a very traumatic fashion, he gets up on day one.
[0:18:34 – 0:18:36] Erik: And flies a homemade hang glider.
[0:18:37 – 0:18:40] Adam: He’s like crazy old Papa Maurice from Beauty and the Beast.
[0:18:40 – 0:18:42] Adam: Just a harebrained inventor.
[0:18:43 – 0:18:43] Adam: He can’t help himself.
[0:18:44 – 0:18:49] Erik: Well, he won an award for that refrigerator, which I guess is… Looks like he’s storing Velociraptor eggs in that thing or something.
[0:18:49 – 0:18:51] Erik: I was going to say, what is the award for?
[0:18:51 – 0:18:53] Erik: You know how to procure dry ice?
[0:18:54 – 0:18:56] Adam: Steamy.
[0:18:56 – 0:18:59] Adam: Felt like Newman was going to reach in there and grab some eggs.
[0:19:01 – 0:19:01] Adam: Dotson.
[0:19:01 – 0:19:02] Erik: We’ve got Dotson here.
[0:19:04 – 0:19:07] Erik: Yeah, I was just like, what the fuck are you doing, dude?
[0:19:07 – 0:19:13] Erik: You’re going to go up to climb on the top of your hill and fly around and potentially die in front of your daughter.
[0:19:13 – 0:19:14] Adam: No helmet.
[0:19:14 – 0:19:15] Adam: No helmet.
[0:19:15 – 0:19:16] Adam: You’re going to break a leg.
[0:19:16 – 0:19:18] Adam: Easy femur snap there.
[0:19:18 – 0:19:18] Erik: God, yeah.
[0:19:19 – 0:19:23] Erik: And I guess that is, I get it in terms of like a plot point.
[0:19:23 – 0:19:27] Erik: Like, oh, he’s got some experience with these flying machines.
[0:19:27 – 0:19:33] Erik: But day one, maybe don’t, maybe just take a break from the hang glider.
[0:19:33 – 0:19:35] Erik: But I guess he’d been traveling for a while.
[0:19:35 – 0:19:36] Erik: New Zealand’s far.
[0:19:36 – 0:19:38] Erik: That’s his excuse for not being a good dad.
[0:19:39 – 0:19:41] Adam: And I guess it’s a lame excuse, dad.
[0:19:41 – 0:19:43] Adam: I think it’s a good excuse, actually.
[0:19:43 – 0:19:44] Adam: Why did she move?
[0:19:44 – 0:19:47] Adam: Here, I got a Lunar Lantern quote.
[0:19:47 – 0:19:50] Adam: Yeah, it’s parked up there, so I made an exact replica.
[0:19:50 – 0:19:51] Adam: Anna Paquin.
[0:19:51 – 0:19:53] Adam: Yeah, every home should have one.
[0:19:55 – 0:19:56] Adam: What a sweet delivery on that line.
[0:19:56 – 0:19:59] Adam: Do you think she’s not from New Zealand, right?
[0:19:59 – 0:20:00] Adam: I don’t know.
[0:20:00 – 0:20:02] Adam: I think she’s British, probably.
[0:20:03 – 0:20:04] Erik: So as like a 12-year-old?
[0:20:04 – 0:20:12] Adam: Is her mom, because it was alluded to that her mom was like a famous singer that she played all the big clubs from Tokyo to London.
[0:20:12 – 0:20:15] Adam: Do you think her mom is Mary Chapin Carpenter?
[0:20:17 – 0:20:18] Erik: Fare thee well.
[0:20:18 – 0:20:21] Adam: That’s why they use that song?
[0:20:21 – 0:20:26] Adam: Maybe it was, anybody out there listening, is this a clue that we missed?
[0:20:26 – 0:20:32] Adam: It just occurred to me now, because it did have a note about her mother was a famous singer that toured.
[0:20:32 – 0:20:33] Erik: Maybe that was her singing.
[0:20:33 – 0:20:34] Adam: Maybe that was her singing.
[0:20:35 – 0:20:36] Adam: That’s why she was listening to it in the headphones.
[0:20:37 – 0:20:38] Adam: She was listening to her mom’s babies.
[0:20:38 – 0:20:41] Erik: She was listening to her mom sing while in the car with her mom.
[0:20:41 – 0:20:42] Adam: Yeah.
[0:20:42 – 0:20:44] Adam: Live in Tokyo with mom.
[0:20:44 – 0:20:44] Adam: Yeah.
[0:20:45 – 0:20:46] Adam: All right.
[0:20:47 – 0:20:50] Erik: Meanwhile, semis are swerving left and right.
[0:20:51 – 0:20:58] Adam: What did you think about the fact that they didn’t realize a lumber company was about to knock down all their trees on their private land somehow?
[0:20:58 – 0:20:59] Erik: Well, and that’s, yeah.
[0:20:59 – 0:21:00] Adam: What’s that all about?
[0:21:00 – 0:21:06] Erik: And then they go down there and it’s just like a couple of knocked over trees and then just left behind machinery.
[0:21:08 – 0:21:10] Erik: Right.
[0:21:10 – 0:21:15] Erik: It’s not the most pragmatic thing to do if you are clearly…
[0:21:17 – 0:21:21] Erik: He almost was suggesting that they were pushing down trees on his land.
[0:21:22 – 0:21:29] Adam: Yeah, but he also didn’t seem to know what was going to happen, even though there was a whole town hall meeting scheduled to protest it later.
[0:21:29 – 0:21:30] Erik: Then later he’s like, we’ve got to go to a meeting.
[0:21:31 – 0:21:32] Adam: Yeah, about this whole goddamn plan.
[0:21:33 – 0:21:34] Erik: Yeah, and then we went to…
[0:21:34 – 0:21:35] Adam: It was Lumber Baron Scum.
[0:21:35 – 0:21:35] Erik: Yeah.
[0:21:36 – 0:21:38] Adam: I love the villainy of the Lumber Barons.
[0:21:39 – 0:21:40] Adam: Every movie’s got to have a villain.
[0:21:40 – 0:21:48] Adam: In this case, it’s sort of the dad being inept, and then it’s mostly the crazy Lumber Barons who are driving the poor geese out of their habitat.
[0:21:48 – 0:21:53] Adam: I think, arguably… And then they’re like the evil, the purely evil DNR warden.
[0:21:53 – 0:21:54] Erik: That’s exactly what I was going to say.
[0:21:54 – 0:21:55] Erik: So funny.
[0:21:55 – 0:21:58] Erik: No, there’s not…
[0:21:58 – 0:21:58] Erik: There is…
[0:22:02 – 0:22:20] Erik: There’s three arcs in this movie, three character arcs, and I would argue that the best one is actually the DNR warden because he begins – because Jeff Daniels gives his meeting speech in front of the town council or whatever and then some other guys like –
[0:22:21 – 0:22:21] Adam: I’m the they.
[0:22:22 – 0:22:27] Erik: I’m the guy that’s like, I can’t make money off my farm anymore, so I’m making money and selling this land.
[0:22:28 – 0:22:35] Erik: And then Jeff Daniels gets a guy that kind of backs him up, and he’s like, what about the animals that are being displaced?
[0:22:35 – 0:22:36] Erik: I’m not worried about this project.
[0:22:37 – 0:22:45] Erik: I’m worried about the future project and the slippery slope of continuing to cut away at the natural habitat and lands that these animals live on.
[0:22:46 – 0:22:47] Erik: I’m like, hell yeah, DNR guy.
[0:22:47 – 0:22:49] Adam: I got the whole quote here if you want it.
[0:22:49 – 0:22:49] Adam: Sure.
[0:22:50 – 0:22:55] Adam: The chair recognizes Glenn Seifert’s DNR warden extraordinaire.
[0:22:56 – 0:23:02] Adam: I just wish to say it’s not this project that worries me, Eric, so much as the projects that will follow in its wake.
[0:23:02 – 0:23:13] Adam: And I don’t believe there are many among you that really want this to happen, and I wish you would consider the fields and streams that your children play in, the clean air, the clean water.
[0:23:14 – 0:23:15] Adam: And the general peace of mind.
[0:23:17 – 0:23:27] Adam: Unless we forget that the animals we share this land with, because they’re all on the brink of disappearing from this place, Ontario, forever, if this permit is passed.
[0:23:28 – 0:23:54] Adam: finger gun so think about it he gives a finger gun yeah seemed inappropriate for glenn seaford’s i love the concept of that the 10 mile radius that exists in wherever this town is will affect all keys ontario there’s literally i almost hit a goose on 61 today coming home from the lumber i was going to get lumber yeah and uh there’s geese right on the damn road they’re everywhere yeah
[0:23:55 – 0:23:57] Erik: Did you ever pick up that?
[0:23:57 – 0:24:01] Adam: I feel like, I don’t know if it’s just because of Jeff Daniels’ presence in this film.
[0:24:01 – 0:24:03] Adam: This is a fine film with Jeff Daniels.
[0:24:04 – 0:24:06] Adam: But Glenn Seifert’s the DNR warden.
[0:24:06 – 0:24:10] Adam: Did he give you any The Real Escanaba and The Moonlight?
[0:24:10 – 0:24:13] Adam: I seen God Up on Your Ridge game warden kind of vibes.
[0:24:13 – 0:24:14] Erik: No, not at all.
[0:24:14 – 0:24:15] Adam: He didn’t.
[0:24:15 – 0:24:18] Adam: In that scene, he’s passionate and seems genuine.
[0:24:18 – 0:24:25] Adam: And then after that, he’s just insane and trying to cut geese wings off and spy on them from the ridge.
[0:24:26 – 0:24:29] Adam: And it’s like, this guy’s a little bit of a creep now.
[0:24:29 – 0:24:33] Erik: He gave me more Twin Peaks vibes than anything else.
[0:24:33 – 0:24:37] Adam: I liked how he was just going to cut their wings right off in front of a child, though.
[0:24:37 – 0:24:38] Adam: Like, what a psycho.
[0:24:38 – 0:24:43] Erik: Well, honestly, at the time, I was not in the way that he executed that.
[0:24:43 – 0:24:47] Erik: But at the time, I was like, yeah, I’m on Team DNR.
[0:24:47 – 0:24:49] Erik: You adopt a bunch of geese into your home.
[0:24:50 – 0:24:53] Erik: They’re just going to start flying around town not knowing what they’re doing.
[0:24:53 – 0:24:58] Erik: And 99% of people are not going to enact the plan that you two are.
[0:24:59 – 0:24:59] Erik: Right.
[0:24:59 – 0:24:59] Erik: Most of them.
[0:24:59 – 0:25:00] Adam: Fly them.
[0:25:00 – 0:25:01] Erik: They’re just going to let them fly to a wind turbine.
[0:25:01 – 0:25:03] Erik: Even then, it barely worked.
[0:25:04 – 0:25:29] Erik: who cares if they get shot by a hunter he’s like but hunters it’s like well whatever but it’s just it seems like a neglectful thing to do where at the time you think you’re helping but inevitably they are going he’s like these are the queen’s geese actually and i’m gonna cut their wings off little girl yeah but the way he did it they were like sitting at that table having like a berry and like fresh uh like cream like whipped cream lunch and they just whipped cream lunch
[0:25:29 – 0:25:29] Erik: Yeah.
[0:25:29 – 0:25:31] Adam: Did you see what was on the table?
[0:25:31 – 0:25:33] Erik: It was like berries and cream.
[0:25:33 – 0:25:34] UNKNOWN: Yeah.
[0:25:34 – 0:25:41] Erik: And he pulls out some nail clippers and I thought it was going to be like a weird faux pas where he starts like clipping his nails at the table or whatever.
[0:25:41 – 0:25:44] Erik: And he just walks over, picks up a goose.
[0:25:44 – 0:25:49] Erik: After giving the entire, like, diatribe about how geese learn everything from their mother.
[0:25:49 – 0:25:50] Erik: Yeah.
[0:25:50 – 0:25:55] Erik: And I was like, well, I get to a certain extent that that might be true.
[0:25:55 – 0:25:57] Erik: But, like, are geese entirely nurture-based?
[0:25:57 – 0:26:00] Erik: Like, would they just die without a mother?
[0:26:00 – 0:26:00] Erik: Yeah.
[0:26:01 – 0:26:27] Erik: eventually if not shown like where to fly to i feel like they could pack up with other like that when they got the other geese flying over eventually and enjoying them right yeah that was part of the towards the end they were they got kind of lost in like a pack of wild geese i was like well there you go let them leave them be let them go with the wild ones yeah but it’s all about that imprinting of a mother even if it is a an alien figure that even if it’s a small child
[0:26:28 – 0:26:29] Adam: Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
[0:26:30 – 0:26:30] Erik: Yeah.
[0:26:31 – 0:26:32] Adam: Yeah.
[0:26:32 – 0:26:34] Adam: They like to follow that sound now.
[0:26:34 – 0:26:37] Erik: I was originally on Team Ministry of Natural Resources.
[0:26:37 – 0:26:38] Adam: Yeah.
[0:26:38 – 0:26:40] Erik: But then I think later, what did it turn out to be?
[0:26:40 – 0:26:43] Erik: It was like the animal.
[0:26:44 – 0:26:46] Erik: There was some weird acronym that definitely wasn’t.
[0:26:48 – 0:26:53] Adam: When he showed up at their place with the binoculars and then was like, I’m going to get you, little geese, eventually.
[0:26:53 – 0:26:56] Adam: I was like, Jesus, you guys are laying it on a little thick here, guys.
[0:26:56 – 0:26:58] Erik: He turns so hard.
[0:26:58 – 0:26:59] Adam: Yeah, I know.
[0:26:59 – 0:27:01] Erik: He abducts the geese at the end.
[0:27:01 – 0:27:02] Adam: I know.
[0:27:02 – 0:27:06] Adam: I was writing this quote down from the meeting when the chair recognizes Glenn Seifert.
[0:27:06 – 0:27:07] Adam: So I’m thinking, this guy knows.
[0:27:07 – 0:27:08] Adam: This guy gets it.
[0:27:08 – 0:27:11] Adam: And then, of course, he’s actually the true villain.
[0:27:11 – 0:27:11] Adam: Yeah.
[0:27:12 – 0:27:13] Adam: All right.
[0:27:13 – 0:27:14] Adam: Him and Baltimore.
[0:27:14 – 0:27:14] Erik: Yeah.
[0:27:16 – 0:27:22] Erik: One of my favorite quotes too about this time in the movie was, again, there’s…
[0:27:24 – 0:27:35] Erik: The tagline of the movie is a father reconnects with his estranged daughter with the help of a flock of wild geese or something.
[0:27:36 – 0:27:41] Erik: I’m like, okay, so I guess the point of the movie is reconnecting this relationship.
[0:27:41 – 0:27:45] Erik: And you know it’s going to eventually come to fruition.
[0:27:45 – 0:27:47] Erik: But very little is done yet.
[0:27:50 – 0:27:53] Erik: In that regard towards the plot, really.
[0:27:54 – 0:27:58] Erik: But I do love the one quote where he’s like, I’ve tried being nice.
[0:27:59 – 0:28:00] Erik: I’ve tried being mean.
[0:28:01 – 0:28:01] Adam: Nothing’s working.
[0:28:02 – 0:28:02] Erik: Right.
[0:28:02 – 0:28:07] Erik: It just reminded me of that Simpsons quote, like, we tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas, man.
[0:28:07 – 0:28:10] Erik: It’s like, what, you tried being nice and then being mean?
[0:28:10 – 0:28:12] Erik: Like, maybe a little nuance, dragon boy.
[0:28:13 – 0:28:13] Erik: Come on.
[0:28:13 – 0:28:14] Erik: Like, figure this out.
[0:28:14 – 0:28:15] Erik: Like, clearly she’s…
[0:28:16 – 0:28:22] Adam: Oh, I liked how when they first brought her home, too, he’s like clearly like clearing booze bottles off the counter as soon as they walk in.
[0:28:22 – 0:28:27] Adam: And then right before that quote in the closed caption, it just says, pours liquid.
[0:28:27 – 0:28:28] Adam: I’ve been tough on her.
[0:28:28 – 0:28:29] Adam: Nothing works.
[0:28:29 – 0:28:30] Adam: She doesn’t want to be here.
[0:28:30 – 0:28:31] Erik: That was the other thing.
[0:28:31 – 0:28:33] Erik: He’s just like actively boozing, too.
[0:28:33 – 0:28:34] Erik: Boozing.
[0:28:34 – 0:28:35] Adam: Oh, yeah.
[0:28:35 – 0:28:35] Adam: Cope.
[0:28:35 – 0:28:37] Adam: Stay cool.
[0:28:37 – 0:28:40] Erik: He’s trying to push that shit onto her, though, too.
[0:28:40 – 0:28:44] Erik: The first day he’s in the shop, he’s like, I got a lot of projects.
[0:28:44 – 0:28:45] Erik: I’m going to be in the shop a bunch.
[0:28:46 – 0:28:47] Erik: You’re going to just have to cope.
[0:28:48 – 0:28:50] Adam: Yeah, fend for yourself.
[0:28:51 – 0:28:52] Adam: Go and find some geese eggs.
[0:28:53 – 0:28:56] Erik: That’s a tactic, I guess, that one can employ in that situation.
[0:28:59 – 0:29:05] Erik: I think my least favorite scene of the movie was when she’s in the shower with the geese.
[0:29:06 – 0:29:06] Erik: Yeah.
[0:29:07 – 0:29:08] Adam: Unnecessary.
[0:29:08 – 0:29:09] Erik: For many reasons.
[0:29:10 – 0:29:24] Erik: The hijinks, the child potential, the potential like child nudity, the fact that there would be geese in there showering with a human who’s taking advantage of like detergents and soaps.
[0:29:25 – 0:29:32] Erik: And at the end of the day, what bothered me the most was just how much she freaked out because some soap got in her fucking eyes.
[0:29:33 – 0:29:33] Erik: Right.
[0:29:33 – 0:29:34] Erik: You ever been in the shower before?
[0:29:34 – 0:29:36] Erik: Like, chill, kid.
[0:29:36 – 0:29:37] Erik: You got some soap in your eyes.
[0:29:37 – 0:29:43] Erik: Daddy’s little peewee Herman hijinks shower apparatus might have, like, malfunctioned.
[0:29:43 – 0:29:44] Erik: But look away.
[0:29:45 – 0:29:45] Erik: Rinse your eyes.
[0:29:45 – 0:29:48] Erik: There’s no reason that those geese should be in there with you.
[0:29:49 – 0:29:50] Erik: First of all, that seems dangerous.
[0:29:53 – 0:29:57] Erik: But I do love Uncle, who just loves wrestling.
[0:29:58 – 0:30:01] Erik: Loves wrestling and drinking beer and falling asleep, not watching his niece.
[0:30:02 – 0:30:04] Adam: Yeah, wrestling, dude.
[0:30:04 – 0:30:06] Erik: How can anybody watch wrestling?
[0:30:08 – 0:30:10] Adam: I could see you watching wrestling just for…
[0:30:11 – 0:30:40] Adam: background entertainment or something but he was like taking it really seriously come on make the right call right Jesus I mean I’ve yelled that at a game of football probably really not a whole lot worse or better but yeah he was really into that wrestling well yeah she’s in the background doing dishes in the dark and then sneaks off to find her geese I’m glad I learned that geese fly 31 miles an hour even though they’re in Canada and they would not be using miles per hour oh good nice catch
[0:30:41 – 0:30:43] Adam: Yeah, what’s that in kilometers?
[0:30:43 – 0:30:44] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:30:44 – 0:30:45] Adam: 45 kilometers an hour?
[0:30:45 – 0:30:47] Erik: 50, somewhere there, yeah.
[0:30:47 – 0:30:50] Adam: Our little, yeah, I mean, the ultralight airplane, pretty cool.
[0:30:51 – 0:30:51] Adam: Yeah.
[0:30:51 – 0:30:53] Adam: You know, all that dragon sculpting came in handy.
[0:30:54 – 0:30:54] Adam: Yeah.
[0:30:54 – 0:30:58] Adam: Should have been making, it would have been two on the nose had he been like, already been a goose sculptor.
[0:30:59 – 0:31:05] Adam: They had to like, what else are we going to do that’s sort of like, that makes it believable he could make a plane of that quality?
[0:31:05 – 0:31:07] Adam: Like, what if he sculpts dragons?
[0:31:07 – 0:31:08] Adam: Just spitballing here.
[0:31:08 – 0:31:08] Erik: Yeah.
[0:31:08 – 0:31:09] Adam: That’s a great idea.
[0:31:10 – 0:31:12] Erik: I mean, he won an award for that refrigerator.
[0:31:12 – 0:31:13] Erik: What are you going to do?
[0:31:13 – 0:31:15] Adam: If you won an award for the fridge, what do you win for those dragons?
[0:31:15 – 0:31:17] Adam: Those things were pretty cool.
[0:31:17 – 0:31:19] Erik: And then we get like a mid…
[0:31:20 – 0:31:23] Erik: I was going to call it an episode, like mid-movie.
[0:31:26 – 0:31:27] Erik: Almost…
[0:31:28 – 0:31:44] Erik: Seemed like it was probably like a studio suggestion to introduce like an AC Slater type sniffing around asking whatever dad Jeff Daniels if he wants to go.
[0:31:44 – 0:31:46] Erik: He was like, man, I found this sweet spot.
[0:31:47 – 0:31:49] Erik: I rocketed up into the sky.
[0:31:49 – 0:31:51] Erik: I was like, you want to come fly?
[0:31:51 – 0:31:52] Erik: It’s only 52 miles away.
[0:31:53 – 0:31:55] Erik: He’s like, no, I got a bunch of projects or whatever.
[0:31:55 – 0:31:59] Erik: And then that guy is fully involved in the rest of the movie.
[0:31:59 – 0:32:00] Adam: I’m going to hang out, actually.
[0:32:00 – 0:32:02] Adam: It seems like you guys got something pretty cool going on here.
[0:32:03 – 0:32:03] Erik: Yeah.
[0:32:03 – 0:32:07] Erik: He’s playing a tuba with Amy later on the banks of a river.
[0:32:07 – 0:32:08] Adam: Yeah.
[0:32:09 – 0:32:10] Adam: Great addition.
[0:32:10 – 0:32:11] Adam: I think that’s Wet Goose.
[0:32:12 – 0:32:15] Adam: He’s the guy that’s in the boat going across Lake Ontario.
[0:32:15 – 0:32:16] Adam: Yeah.
[0:32:17 – 0:32:17] Adam: Wet Goose.
[0:32:18 – 0:32:19] Adam: Code name, Wet Goose.
[0:32:19 – 0:32:24] Erik: Yeah, he shows up in a fucking cigarette boat at one point cruising across the lake.
[0:32:25 – 0:32:26] Adam: Yeah, that’s a good part of the plan.
[0:32:27 – 0:32:28] Adam: I guess, maybe.
[0:32:28 – 0:32:31] Erik: There was no discussion as to how the boat was procured.
[0:32:32 – 0:32:34] Erik: He just showed up for like 30 seconds.
[0:32:34 – 0:32:37] Erik: I’m sure they only have the budget to rent a boat for an afternoon.
[0:32:37 – 0:32:39] Adam: Can you believe Igor got bird striked?
[0:32:40 – 0:32:41] UNKNOWN: Whoa.
[0:32:41 – 0:32:42] UNKNOWN: Igor.
[0:32:42 – 0:32:42] Adam: My tears.
[0:32:43 – 0:32:45] Erik: He got sullied bad.
[0:32:45 – 0:32:52] Adam: He’s got to put a little scarf around his neck and let him ride shotgun the rest of the way.
[0:32:52 – 0:32:57] Erik: Yeah, I did watch this on the backside of a bit of a night of revelry at my house.
[0:32:57 – 0:33:03] Erik: So the lack of sleep and the hangover always makes me a little punchy and a little bit more emotional.
[0:33:04 – 0:33:07] Erik: And my, yeah, I like lightly got like,
[0:33:07 – 0:33:12] Erik: kind of like welled up in the eyes when Igor got hit, and then they were in the woods searching for him.
[0:33:12 – 0:33:13] Erik: I was like, what is happening right now?
[0:33:14 – 0:33:15] Erik: Why do I care about Igor?
[0:33:15 – 0:33:17] Adam: Yeah, because he’s the little runty boy.
[0:33:18 – 0:33:23] Adam: Right away they started playing it up that one of them was a little runty and couldn’t quite keep up.
[0:33:23 – 0:33:26] Adam: You’re like, you know damn well this bird’s in for something.
[0:33:26 – 0:33:29] Adam: They’re runting him up early in the movie.
[0:33:29 – 0:33:37] Adam: That’s definitely going to be, you’re going to see this arc to its conclusion for sure, which involves him riding with a little scarf and goggles on.
[0:33:37 – 0:34:02] Erik: in the plane did they so can’t be flying i’m so i’m so little and i didn’t i don’t really remember if it was mentioned in the uh towards the end of the movie when we got the the update on what actually happened if you do believe this story yeah right which is not um but did she fly back with igor then or did she just know igor was left there and then she was here you go live with your friend your family
[0:34:03 – 0:34:04] Erik: He’s going to make sure…
[0:34:04 – 0:34:05] Erik: He’ll figure out how to fly right by spring.
[0:34:05 – 0:34:06] Erik: He’ll fly next spring, yeah.
[0:34:07 – 0:34:09] Adam: Enjoy… Where did they end up?
[0:34:09 – 0:34:09] Adam: Virginia?
[0:34:10 – 0:34:16] Erik: Some random development in Virginia where we do, again, get another entity of a development crew.
[0:34:16 – 0:34:17] Adam: Oh, yeah.
[0:34:17 – 0:34:17] Adam: Jesus.
[0:34:17 – 0:34:24] Adam: I’m going to knock this low-income housing down to build a corporate headquarters or bullshit LLC.
[0:34:24 – 0:34:24] Adam: Yeah.
[0:34:25 – 0:34:29] Erik: I mean, it’s a kid’s movie, so it does stand… That’s a new villain at the end.
[0:34:29 – 0:34:30] Erik: It stands a little bit above…
[0:34:31 – 0:34:37] Adam: Were they straight up just like, we’re going to bulldoze this entire wetlands down to build a blockbuster video?
[0:34:37 – 0:34:38] Erik: Yeah, no, it was…
[0:34:38 – 0:34:39] Erik: I mean, you could really…
[0:34:40 – 0:34:40] Erik: Okay.
[0:34:40 – 0:34:44] Erik: Any children’s movie, you could rename.
[0:34:44 – 0:34:46] Erik: And this one is…
[0:34:47 – 0:34:50] Erik: No exception, but you could just call it trope the movie.
[0:34:50 – 0:34:51] Erik: Right.
[0:34:51 – 0:34:55] Erik: It’s like, oh, businessman, bulldozer, hippie sitting cross-legged.
[0:34:56 – 0:35:01] Adam: Yeah, the military thinks that a bunch of geese coming into their stupid Air Force base is a UFO.
[0:35:01 – 0:35:03] Erik: Yeah.
[0:35:03 – 0:35:04] Erik: And the geese show up on radar?
[0:35:04 – 0:35:05] Erik: Do you see all the little dots?
[0:35:05 – 0:35:05] Erik: Yeah, yeah.
[0:35:06 – 0:35:06] Erik: I was like, what?
[0:35:06 – 0:35:08] Erik: No, the geese would not show up on radar.
[0:35:08 – 0:35:11] Adam: I highly doubt that these two little- The ultralight plane probably wouldn’t show up on radar.
[0:35:11 – 0:35:11] Adam: They’re flying low and slow.
[0:35:11 – 0:35:13] Erik: They’re flying at like a hundred feet.
[0:35:13 – 0:35:13] Adam: Yeah.
[0:35:13 – 0:35:13] Adam: Yeah.
[0:35:14 – 0:35:16] Erik: But, yeah, of course you need that.
[0:35:16 – 0:35:19] Adam: And it’s like, Papa Goose, we got some real tired birds back here.
[0:35:19 – 0:35:20] Erik: Yeah.
[0:35:20 – 0:35:21] Erik: We got to put them down, Amy.
[0:35:21 – 0:35:36] Erik: There’s so many times in this movie, though, where I did appreciate, because you could see this, and I feel like this doesn’t exist in kids’ movies or even movies anymore, where if they introduce a problem, you expect it’s going to be a big one.
[0:35:37 – 0:35:46] Erik: Like, this is going to cause some shit and some mayhem, and it’s going to be a big roadblock in… Because this movie is clearly, like, an A to B.
[0:35:46 – 0:35:48] Erik: These geese need to get from here to there.
[0:35:48 – 0:35:49] Erik: Very easy.
[0:35:50 – 0:35:55] Erik: But then, like, they introduced all these things where, like, her microphone cord, like, falls out.
[0:35:55 – 0:35:55] Erik: Yeah.
[0:35:55 – 0:35:57] Erik: And you’re like, uh-oh, what’s this going to be?
[0:35:57 – 0:36:00] Erik: And then he just flies up and is like, plug your cord back in.
[0:36:00 – 0:36:01] Erik: And she just plugs it back in.
[0:36:01 – 0:36:01] Erik: Yeah.
[0:36:02 – 0:36:03] Erik: And then they land at the military base.
[0:36:03 – 0:36:04] Erik: And it’s like, whoa, shit.
[0:36:04 – 0:36:06] Erik: Are they going to confiscate the geese?
[0:36:06 – 0:36:08] Erik: Are they going to get gunned down?
[0:36:08 – 0:36:09] Erik: And it’s just like, nope.
[0:36:09 – 0:36:10] Erik: This is crazy.
[0:36:10 – 0:36:13] Erik: They take a bunch of pictures, get publicized, and then they’re on their way.
[0:36:14 – 0:36:16] Erik: And then they’re flying over some hunting grounds.
[0:36:17 – 0:36:18] Erik: And then there’s some shooting.
[0:36:19 – 0:36:20] Erik: But she just scares the hunters.
[0:36:20 – 0:36:23] Erik: And then they end up hanging out with some old lady in the house for a little bit.
[0:36:24 – 0:36:24] Erik: And then they’re fine.
[0:36:25 – 0:36:26] Erik: But I get it.
[0:36:26 – 0:36:27] Erik: It’s a PG kids movie.
[0:36:27 – 0:36:29] Erik: You can’t have those be like extreme like.
[0:36:29 – 0:36:35] Adam: The worst thing that happens is Igor gets prop washed and lives happily ever after.
[0:36:36 – 0:36:36] Adam: Yeah.
[0:36:36 – 0:36:37] Adam: So not too shabby.
[0:36:38 – 0:36:39] Adam: Um,
[0:36:42 – 0:36:48] Erik: There was a part of me considering just the way that movies go these days.
[0:36:48 – 0:36:57] Erik: I was like, man, when those geese become fully sentient and pull the little cord on the lock and let themselves out.
[0:36:57 – 0:36:58] Adam: Oh, yeah.
[0:36:58 – 0:37:06] Erik: I was like, are they going to fucking Sully Sullenberger this thing and they’re going to have to put it down into the Hudson River because they’re going to run right into the prop or something?
[0:37:06 – 0:37:06] Adam: Yeah.
[0:37:07 – 0:37:08] Erik: But then they just fly perfectly fine.
[0:37:09 – 0:37:12] Adam: Igor gets lightly winged and he’s still fine.
[0:37:12 – 0:37:12] Adam: He’s fine.
[0:37:12 – 0:37:13] Adam: Yeah.
[0:37:13 – 0:37:16] Adam: No, I mean, so literally they make it through Baltimore.
[0:37:17 – 0:37:18] Adam: They make it through the Hunters.
[0:37:18 – 0:37:20] Adam: They make it through the military base buffoonery.
[0:37:21 – 0:37:30] Adam: And then they also, icing on the cake, gravy on the poutine, they stop the evil development of more habitat loss.
[0:37:30 – 0:37:32] Adam: So it’s like a triple win.
[0:37:32 – 0:37:33] Adam: Somewhere in Virginia.
[0:37:34 – 0:37:36] Adam: Yeah, and plus they do grow closer.
[0:37:37 – 0:37:40] Erik: I guess she does learn to sort of trust her crazy father in the end.
[0:37:41 – 0:37:45] Adam: And then, yeah, the ultimate was just like, so then you got to take these geese.
[0:37:45 – 0:37:47] Adam: You got to do the last 30 miles by yourself.
[0:37:47 – 0:37:49] Adam: You got to take these geese and fly away.
[0:37:49 – 0:37:50] Adam: But they don’t say home.
[0:37:51 – 0:37:52] Erik: Come on.
[0:37:52 – 0:37:54] Erik: Yeah, he just crashes into a cornfield.
[0:37:54 – 0:37:54] Erik: Wow.
[0:37:55 – 0:37:57] Erik: And he dislocates his shoulder.
[0:37:57 – 0:38:00] Erik: So for the rest of the movie, he’s like kind of holding onto an arm.
[0:38:01 – 0:38:21] Adam: um yeah but then basically they get to the end and they’re just like yeah the end and then also like they all flew back the next year and even a igor the end they just didn’t show that the real end of the movie well they did show in the background of the credits the geese flying back and landing on the skim ice of the pond oh i didn’t i guess i didn’t notice that
[0:38:22 – 0:38:34] Erik: A couple of other characters that we haven’t mentioned so far is the bird expert with the British accent who is at the front lines of the development project down in Virginia.
[0:38:35 – 0:38:35] Erik: Yeah.
[0:38:35 – 0:38:37] Erik: He’s just cross-legged.
[0:38:37 – 0:38:41] Erik: He’s like, if this works, we can do this with nearly extinct species.
[0:38:41 – 0:38:42] Adam: Exactly.
[0:38:42 – 0:38:43] Erik: It’ll be crazy.
[0:38:43 – 0:38:45] Erik: I was like, well, there was an entire…
[0:38:47 – 0:38:52] Erik: sequence of this movie where somebody was out searching for a good place for these geese to land.
[0:38:53 – 0:38:53] Erik: Yeah.
[0:38:53 – 0:38:59] Erik: Maybe do a little bit better research and not have them land on a place where somebody wants to build some condos.
[0:39:00 – 0:39:02] Adam: Yeah, it didn’t seem like a great final destination for him.
[0:39:03 – 0:39:03] Erik: No.
[0:39:04 – 0:39:08] Erik: But then the other thing to say again is the full turn of the DNR guy.
[0:39:08 – 0:39:15] Erik: He goes full villain and in the middle of the night while they’re searching for Igor, am I to believe…
[0:39:16 – 0:39:24] Erik: His 1996 Jeep Cherokee was able to accommodate 15 almost fully grown geese.
[0:39:24 – 0:39:27] Adam: Yeah, he’s got special goose coops in there.
[0:39:27 – 0:39:35] Erik: I mean, first of all, even if they were all loose, I highly doubt that that would be a good situation for a goose.
[0:39:35 – 0:39:36] Erik: Right, no.
[0:39:36 – 0:39:46] Erik: Second of all, if he’s a proper DNR ranger and is so concerned about the protection of these animals, you would want and think that they would be in cages.
[0:39:47 – 0:39:50] Erik: And then in that case, there is no way they’re fitting in the back of the Jeep.
[0:39:51 – 0:39:55] Adam: He’s probably just in classic, you know, copper fashion, just stun gunned them all.
[0:39:55 – 0:39:57] Erik: Well, that’s the only other thing I can think of because…
[0:39:57 – 0:39:59] Adam: I’m going to hurt these geese to help them.
[0:39:59 – 0:40:05] Erik: You can’t have one open door while you’re trying to load up other geese.
[0:40:06 – 0:40:08] Erik: You’re way overthinking this, yeah.
[0:40:08 – 0:40:16] Erik: It’s going to be an Abbott and Costello scene or like a Three Stooges where you put one goose in, two come out, three in, four come out.
[0:40:17 – 0:40:24] Erik: In the quickness that he did it in the dark, and then they just have a designated animal cage pen.
[0:40:25 – 0:40:27] Adam: Easily broken out of goose pen.
[0:40:27 – 0:40:31] Erik: Yeah, one lock is cut, and then they perfectly timed.
[0:40:32 – 0:40:32] Erik: That was the thing.
[0:40:32 – 0:40:36] Adam: I thought they were just going to buzz the DNR office.
[0:40:36 – 0:40:42] Erik: I thought they were just going to rescue them, but then they started their flights away.
[0:40:42 – 0:40:44] Erik: They were like, we can’t trust this DNR guy anymore.
[0:40:44 – 0:40:45] Adam: We’re on our way.
[0:40:46 – 0:40:47] Adam: Yeah.
[0:40:48 – 0:40:50] Adam: What are you rating this movie?
[0:40:51 – 0:40:53] Adam: I think we’ve got to call it an evening on this thing.
[0:40:53 – 0:40:54] Adam: What do you got?
[0:40:55 – 0:40:56] Adam: I got to get out fishing.
[0:40:56 – 0:41:08] Erik: Well, yeah, you do have to get out fishing, but just two more things I just have to point out how insane it is that she left him behind just in a random field.
[0:41:09 – 0:41:14] Erik: Who knows how far from a road he was after he crashed and dislocated his shoulder.
[0:41:15 – 0:41:15] Erik: That’s insane to me.
[0:41:16 – 0:41:23] Erik: And then just how over the top the inspirational music at the end was.
[0:41:24 – 0:41:24] Adam: Like…
[0:41:24 – 0:41:26] Adam: That’s her mom, Celine Dion.
[0:41:26 – 0:41:26] Erik: Yeah.
[0:41:28 – 0:41:29] Adam: She’s toured everywhere.
[0:41:29 – 0:41:31] Erik: And then it almost got, I was like, all right, fine, I’m into it.
[0:41:31 – 0:41:35] Erik: But then it was like, just fucking land already.
[0:41:35 – 0:41:36] Erik: I know you’re going to land.
[0:41:36 – 0:41:36] Adam: Yeah, I know.
[0:41:37 – 0:41:38] Erik: And then the landing scene.
[0:41:38 – 0:41:40] Adam: I frankly did lose interest at the end of the movie.
[0:41:41 – 0:41:42] Erik: Kind of disappointed.
[0:41:43 – 0:41:45] Erik: Like there really weren’t that many people there.
[0:41:46 – 0:41:48] Adam: The news crew was there at least.
[0:41:48 – 0:41:48] Adam: Yeah.
[0:41:49 – 0:41:51] Erik: And then we get some light Amy chanting.
[0:41:51 – 0:41:56] Erik: And then the classic shot of the businessman exasperated in his boulder.
[0:41:56 – 0:41:57] Erik: Darn it.
[0:41:57 – 0:41:59] Erik: Flipping the permit up in the air or whatever.
[0:41:59 – 0:41:59] Adam: Oh, yeah.
[0:41:59 – 0:42:01] Adam: That guy flipping the permit up in the air.
[0:42:01 – 0:42:02] Adam: Like, yeah.
[0:42:03 – 0:42:04] Adam: Very well done.
[0:42:04 – 0:42:10] Erik: And then the movie does end, as they all had to, by law, in the 90s, on a freeze frame.
[0:42:10 – 0:42:11] Erik: Freeze frame.
[0:42:12 – 0:42:12] Erik: Don’t worry.
[0:42:12 – 0:42:13] Erik: They all made it home safe.
[0:42:13 – 0:42:15] Erik: Fairly well.
[0:42:16 – 0:42:26] Erik: But one of the geese wranglers was Jordy Lishman, who I would have to assume is related to William Lishman, who was involved in the original experiments with…
[0:42:26 – 0:42:42] Erik: animal imprinting specifically on geese and a lot of those geese from those experiments were used in this movie i don’t think the the story is necessarily true but it is not an entire fabrication like a lot of the things that were done where they were getting
[0:42:43 – 0:42:48] Adam: I know they’ve done this with Sandhill Cranes, you know, to get them to migrate and reestablish their old migration habits.
[0:42:48 – 0:42:51] Adam: So, I mean, it’s definitely, there’s a lot of truth to this movie.
[0:42:52 – 0:42:58] Erik: Yeah, but it’s not quite as desperate and or dramatic as a small child having to finish the flight.
[0:42:58 – 0:43:00] Erik: They didn’t have a teenager flying the planes.
[0:43:00 – 0:43:00] Erik: Yeah.
[0:43:00 – 0:43:01] Erik: Probably not.
[0:43:01 – 0:43:01] Erik: No.
[0:43:01 – 0:43:02] Adam: Who’s to say?
[0:43:03 – 0:43:08] Adam: And… Gordy, Jordy Lishman, not Gordy, Jordy Lishman.
[0:43:08 – 0:43:09] Erik: Jordy Lishman.
[0:43:09 – 0:43:10] Adam: Gordy, what do you think about this?
[0:43:10 – 0:43:12] Adam: Gordy, what are you giving this movie?
[0:43:13 – 0:43:15] Erik: Birds are very nicely done, guys.
[0:43:15 – 0:43:16] Erik: I’ll give it an 88 out of 100.
[0:43:17 – 0:43:17] Adam: Thank you, Gordy.
[0:43:18 – 0:43:18] Adam: Honk, honk.
[0:43:18 – 0:43:20] Adam: Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, Gordy.
[0:43:21 – 0:43:22] Erik: Jeff the goose.
[0:43:22 – 0:43:23] Erik: Jeff the mongoose.
[0:43:24 – 0:43:24] Erik: Honk, honk.
[0:43:24 – 0:43:27] Adam: I don’t know.
[0:43:27 – 0:43:28] Adam: I’ll give it a 75 out of 100.
[0:43:28 – 0:43:30] Adam: It was all right.
[0:43:30 – 0:43:31] Adam: I wouldn’t watch it again.
[0:43:31 – 0:43:32] Adam: Like I said, I’d…
[0:43:34 – 0:43:44] Erik: I’ll give it a 55 out of 100 as a 36-year-old man who really shouldn’t be watching movies like this, but I’ll give it a 75 as for its intended audience.
[0:43:44 – 0:43:44] Adam: Yeah, right.
[0:43:44 – 0:43:46] Adam: That’s what I’m going for here.
[0:43:46 – 0:43:50] Adam: I wouldn’t recommend it, but pretty good movie for what it is.
[0:43:52 – 0:43:58] Adam: For Tumble Home Cinema Classics, coming to you live from the Tumble Shed, my name has been Adam.
[0:43:58 – 0:43:59] Adam: Joined here by Eric.
[0:43:59 – 0:44:06] Adam: Thanks for coming out on this really, really hot afternoon to talk Fly Away Home.
[0:44:06 – 0:44:10] Adam: It’s been on the whiteboard probably about as long as any of these other films.
[0:44:11 – 0:44:13] Adam: It’ll feel good to cross this one off.
[0:44:13 – 0:44:14] Adam: I can go ahead and confirm.
[0:44:14 – 0:44:17] Adam: I don’t know if I told you or…
[0:44:18 – 0:44:26] Adam: I had somebody on Instagram say they will for sure sign up for Patreon guaranteed if we do Cannibal the Musical next.
[0:44:26 – 0:44:27] Erik: Okay.
[0:44:27 – 0:44:28] Adam: So I said, all right, sold.
[0:44:29 – 0:44:30] Adam: I’ll do it.
[0:44:30 – 0:44:31] Adam: So I’ll pick Cannibal the Musical.
[0:44:31 – 0:44:36] Adam: So I’ll have to watch it on the DVD and then I’ll have to borrow you the DVD, I guess.
[0:44:36 – 0:44:37] Adam: Do you have a way to watch a DVD?
[0:44:38 – 0:44:41] Adam: You can probably find a stream of it for free.
[0:44:41 – 0:44:42] Adam: I think it’s for free online.
[0:44:42 – 0:44:43] Adam: Yeah, I could.
[0:44:43 – 0:44:44] Erik: It’s probably just on YouTube.
[0:44:44 – 0:44:47] Erik: Seems a little bit more appropriate for the fall, but it’s your call.
[0:44:47 – 0:44:48] Erik: I cannot dispute.
[0:44:48 – 0:45:07] Adam: uh i’m just gonna do it let’s get that patreon uh happy patreon member welcome to the team i don’t have the notes in front of me and your name but uh you know who you are you’re coming up next actually you won’t hear this because you’re not currently a patron until you get to go back retroactively and listen to nearly 40 of these shitters
[0:45:09 – 0:45:12] Adam: Thanks for joining us anyways on the Patreon.
[0:45:12 – 0:45:13] Adam: So we’re going to do it.
[0:45:13 – 0:45:18] Adam: I mean, the DVD got sent to us in the famous art supplies wonder box.
[0:45:19 – 0:45:20] Adam: And why not?
[0:45:20 – 0:45:21] Adam: Let’s just do it next.
[0:45:21 – 0:45:22] Adam: I’ve never heard of it.
[0:45:22 – 0:45:24] Adam: I’m excited to see how horrible it can be.
[0:45:25 – 0:45:46] Erik: Well, I am ready to be done, but I do not want to leave anybody that is out there listening without knowing that I did really appreciate the highly editorialized comment from the news report on the conflict between the developers and people who wanted to protect the land.
[0:45:48 – 0:45:53] Erik: Quote, greenies, tree huggers, and bird watchers gather.
[0:45:53 – 0:45:54] Erik: Greenies.
[0:45:54 – 0:45:56] Adam: Greenies and tree huggers.
[0:45:56 – 0:45:58] Adam: Goddamn bird watching hippies.
[0:46:00 – 0:46:00] Adam: Yeah.
[0:46:01 – 0:46:02] Adam: That’s a good place to leave it.
[0:46:02 – 0:46:04] Erik: Yeah, let’s leave it there.
[0:46:04 – 0:46:06] Erik: We’ll see you next time.
[0:46:06 – 0:46:08] Erik: Hopefully not a month in between.
[0:46:08 – 0:46:12] Adam: No, we’ll get that one going, you know, I would say soon.
[0:46:12 – 0:46:13] Adam: Soon?

[0:46:16 – 0:46:18] Adam: Cannibal, the musical.
[0:46:18 – 0:46:23] Adam: And yeah, Justin or whoever you are, welcome to Tumble Home.

[0:46:27 – 0:46:28] Adam: We can be bought just like that.
[0:46:28 – 0:46:29] Adam: Bought and sold.
[0:46:29 – 0:46:31] Adam: I’ll join for a buck a month.
[0:46:31 – 0:46:32] Adam: I’ll do whatever you say then.
[0:46:32 – 0:46:33] Adam: I’ll dance.
[0:46:33 – 0:46:35] Adam: We’ll dance and sing for a buck a month.
[0:46:35 – 0:46:36] Adam: I don’t care.
[0:46:36 – 0:46:38] Adam: I’ll dance for your 12 annual dollars.
[0:46:38 – 0:46:39] Adam: I’m cheap.
[0:46:41 – 0:46:42] Erik: How much do you pay for Netflix?
[0:46:42 – 0:46:44] Erik: It’s all trash on there anyway.
[0:46:45 – 0:46:47] Adam: I was pleased that this was just on Hulu.
[0:46:48 – 0:46:48] Adam: Easy peasy.
[0:46:48 – 0:46:50] Adam: Straight up just on HBO.
[0:46:51 – 0:46:53] Adam: Oh, it was on HBO and on Hulu.
[0:46:53 – 0:46:55] Erik: I watched it on both just to make sure.
[0:46:57 – 0:46:58] Erik: Who the heck is this?
[0:46:58 – 0:46:58] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:46:59 – 0:47:00] Erik: Oh, God.
[0:47:00 – 0:47:03] Erik: Do you need to get your DNR spying glasses out?
[0:47:04 – 0:47:06] Erik: Hide behind a tree?
[0:47:07 – 0:47:08] Adam: We might have to.
[0:47:08 – 0:47:09] Adam: We might have visitors here.
[0:47:09 – 0:47:17] Erik: Or do you just want to sidle up to a 13-year-old girl and tell them that I’m aware of your geese?
[0:47:17 – 0:47:18] Adam: I know.
[0:47:18 – 0:47:21] Adam: What’s up with your uncle?
[0:47:21 – 0:47:22] Adam: What’s he doing here?
[0:47:22 – 0:47:23] Adam: Where’s your dad at?
[0:47:24 – 0:47:24] Adam: What’s up with that?
[0:47:25 – 0:47:49] Adam: that slut susan that’s shacking up with your dad anybody what’s her story anybody watching you right now jesus yeah yeah that scene was like it was cloudy but he still had the big aviators on i was like yeah it’s a choice oh man dnr wardens just can’t catch a break and in cinema they’re just always perpetrated as just complete clowns and idiots and and creeps i guess so yeah yeah um you know
[0:47:51 – 0:47:52] Adam: I’m sure there’s some good ones out there.
[0:47:53 – 0:48:00] Adam: They got a couple in Cook County that I don’t mind talking to, but yeah, I’ve never run into this type of DNR warden.
[0:48:00 – 0:48:02] Adam: These guys are just, this guy seemed like pure evil.
[0:48:02 – 0:48:04] Erik: Vendetta driven DNR officer.
[0:48:04 – 0:48:05] Erik: Yeah.
[0:48:05 – 0:48:06] Erik: Fuck those people.
[0:48:06 – 0:48:07] Erik: If they do exist.
[0:48:07 – 0:48:10] Adam: I think the lesson to be learned here is don’t take your job too seriously.
[0:48:11 – 0:48:11] Adam: Yeah.
[0:48:11 – 0:48:12] Adam: The end.
[0:48:12 – 0:48:12] Adam: Yeah.
[0:48:12 – 0:48:14] Erik: And don’t adopt geese.
[0:48:15 – 0:48:17] Erik: Borderline rats of the sky.
[0:48:19 – 0:48:19] Adam: All right.
[0:48:20 – 0:48:23] Adam: Well, good job, Anna Paquin, by the way.
[0:48:23 – 0:48:25] Adam: And we’ll stop joking that it’s Ellen Page.
[0:48:25 – 0:48:25] Erik: Sure.
[0:48:26 – 0:48:26] Erik: Fine.
[0:48:26 – 0:48:28] Erik: That’s the last joke we ever make.
[0:48:28 – 0:48:30] Erik: Terrible New Zealand accent, though.
[0:48:30 – 0:48:35] Erik: But you did go on to become a pretty good actress.
[0:48:35 – 0:48:37] Erik: And she wasn’t actually that bad in this.
[0:48:37 – 0:48:39] Erik: Oh, she was great for a child actor.
[0:48:39 – 0:48:40] Erik: Like, well done.
[0:48:40 – 0:48:40] Erik: Yeah.
[0:48:40 – 0:48:41] Erik: For sure.
[0:48:41 – 0:48:45] Erik: Not noticeably bad as a child actor, which is saying something.
[0:48:45 – 0:48:45] Adam: There it is.
[0:48:45 – 0:48:46] Adam: There it is.
[0:48:47 – 0:48:47] Adam: Good job.
[0:48:49 – 0:48:50] Adam: Night.
[0:48:50 – 0:48:50] Adam: Good goosin’.
[0:48:51 – 0:48:51] Adam: Good goosin’.
