[00:00:21] Speaker A: So this one's got, like, eight jets. I don't know if that's too many me or too few. What do you guys think? [00:00:27] Speaker B: Mike, I think you need to focus more on the size rather than the jet number. [00:00:32] Speaker A: Good note, good note, good note. [00:00:34] Speaker C: This one does say Olympic. Mike. So maybe we need to look more in your space, more like a lap hop tub. [00:00:42] Speaker A: So you say Olympic. I hear gold standard, so I feel like that is what it's trying to convey. [00:00:49] Speaker C: Mike, with your history, I wouldn't think gold when I think the Olympics. I would think more like whatever comes below bronze. Based on your history, based on how you did in Tokyo. [00:01:01] Speaker B: Yeah, okay. [00:01:02] Speaker D: Rude. [00:01:04] Speaker B: Copper comes below bronze, by the way. [00:01:07] Speaker D: Thinking about copper metal. [00:01:09] Speaker B: Well, yeah, but constellation. So they have to stay out in the sun for a little bit and in the weather, so they get that kind of, like, greeny color. [00:01:16] Speaker C: Oxidization. Yeah. [00:01:18] Speaker B: Yes. That's the word. [00:01:19] Speaker A: Science. [00:01:20] Speaker B: Am I right? [00:01:20] Speaker C: Yeah. Mike, you got oxidized in shot putt, right? [00:01:25] Speaker A: Yeah, that's it. [00:01:26] Speaker C: Okay. That's the you were and you weren't competing. You were in the stands, and they hit you, right? [00:01:32] Speaker A: Yeah. No, what it was yeah, no, what actually happened was they hit me mildly concussed. I picked up the ball, and I threw it back because kind of like I was at a baseball game, and it was an opposing player's home run, and I threw it so far, I hit someone on the other side of the field, and they were like, impressive. We can't give you the medal, but that is very impressive. So they gave me a few pennies, which I guess were the copper metals. I'm not 100% sure, but yeah. [00:02:02] Speaker B: Mike, look at this one. It has a little stand in the middle so you could put your microphone so you can record our podcast while you enjoy the hot tub. [00:02:10] Speaker D: Oh, good. [00:02:11] Speaker A: That's great. As opposed to the toilet, where I typically record these. [00:02:14] Speaker B: Yeah. And let's see. A lot of money, how much hot tubs usually cost, but comparatively, this is a lot of money. [00:02:25] Speaker A: Shockingly, not cheap. Shockingly. There are very few budget options for hot tubs, is what I'm learning here is typically they assume that the clientele are particularly wealthy, which I don't know. [00:02:38] Speaker B: If that's and you also have to remember right. You're planning on installing this in your apartment in Town Hall. There's not a bathroom in there, which means there's no water going to that area. So it's going to be a whole freaking thing to get this set up. [00:02:52] Speaker A: The mosquitoes are going to love this place. [00:02:54] Speaker B: Forget the startup cost of just the hot tub. Like, you're going to at least have to double it to get this thing running. [00:03:00] Speaker C: You might have to go culligan on this one, Mike. [00:03:03] Speaker A: You might be right. [00:03:04] Speaker C: Have them deliver. [00:03:05] Speaker B: You're going to really have to dance on this week's episode of Everybody loves. [00:03:13] Speaker A: I should I should look into some grout. Actually, now that we're saying that out loud, that's something I need. [00:03:18] Speaker C: Well, what about this one, Mike? That comes with the full the. It says for the sad man, it comes with piping. It comes with grout. It comes with a nice inflatable, I guess, partner, that you can spend time in the hot tub with. [00:03:35] Speaker A: Yeah. What was the adjective for this guy? [00:03:38] Speaker C: The adjective? Well, it's an acronym, actually. It's sad. [00:03:42] Speaker A: That's me. [00:03:43] Speaker C: Yeah. Well, you can see what I do. [00:03:45] Speaker A: Want to know what it stands for? [00:03:47] Speaker C: Well, I mean, you're looking at the placard right now because you're looking at the specs. Maybe we say it together, what it stands for. [00:03:54] Speaker A: Yeah, you got it. Obviously, single guys are reading two different. [00:04:00] Speaker B: Signs towards each other. [00:04:02] Speaker A: Sorry. [00:04:02] Speaker C: Yeah. All right, well, I was looking at the smallest version of this model, and you were obviously looking at the largest one, which is the largest here they call special. Let's meet in the middle. Standard aluminum yeah. Dump. [00:04:23] Speaker B: Yes. [00:04:24] Speaker A: The standard aluminum dump. [00:04:25] Speaker B: That's sad. All right. Yeah. You know what else is sad? [00:04:29] Speaker C: What? [00:04:29] Speaker B: Recording your podcast in the middle of a hot tub store. Hi. Welcome back to Everybody Loves Everybody Loves Raymond. My name is Alex Shearer, and I'm the mayor of Lynbrook, and I am joined here, regrettably, by my two friends who helped me run this town. Well, first of all, did I say regretfully? I meant joyfully. [00:04:49] Speaker A: Yeah, well, you can't just walk at that level of an insult back at that point. It's a little insulting, but hi, everybody. [00:04:57] Speaker B: With the power of editing. [00:04:59] Speaker C: Seems like tensions are bubbling over a little bit in the hot tub showroom appreciative. Laughs from the other shoppers salesperson, giving me big nod. So let's try to take the temperature down a little bit. Yes. Got them with that tag as well. I'm killing crushing it today. Well, you know what? It's my bubbly personality. Did I already use bubbling? [00:05:21] Speaker A: Maybe. [00:05:22] Speaker B: Where are you? [00:05:23] Speaker C: Yeah, well, I'm Adam. Rudy. Well, Mike, you didn't get to do yours, did? Yeah, you were in the middle of yeah. Yeah. [00:05:30] Speaker A: Hi, everybody. I'm Mike G. I am the hot tub construction man for this week of Lynbrook. I don't know if that's an official. [00:05:42] Speaker B: Title, but no, it's not. He's just a guy who wants a hot tub. You don't have to put, like, a special spin on it. Like, you're not really working much this week. You took three personal days in a row. [00:05:54] Speaker C: The week off, it's fine, and then. [00:05:55] Speaker B: You come back and you're like, guys, come with me to find a hot tub. I know we have to record. Bring the microphone with you. It's just a whole thing. [00:06:03] Speaker A: You gave me four personal days for the entire year, and I've used three of them this week to go hot tub shopping, and you've given me crap for it, so now I'm going to come now. [00:06:15] Speaker D: I'm going to make this my job. [00:06:16] Speaker B: I'm giving you crap for it because what a waste of those personal days. [00:06:21] Speaker C: Why are you having so much trouble deciding, you know, the dimensions of your room? And I mean, you've been clocking in here. I've seen your time cards 8 hours a day for three days just at this, the only hot tub showroom in town. [00:06:39] Speaker A: Yeah, well, this is the legendary hot tub showroom. First of all, honestly, granted, honestly. Number one, the dimensions of the space, they sound smaller than they actually are. Okay? I believe that. I believe we can fill this thing wall to wall with hot tub. Second of all, come here. I can't let the employees here. Everybody come in. [00:06:58] Speaker C: Come in. [00:07:00] Speaker A: I heard that these people have the fabled hot tub time machine. [00:07:06] Speaker B: No way. No fucking way. Even if the location is correct, no way that the time is correct. You don't know that likely. That thing is traveling currently to a distant time, either forward or back and we are not able to see it. That's Adam, by the way. [00:07:27] Speaker C: Yeah. Hi, Mike. I thought they were just selling the DVDs at the front of Hot Tub Time Machine. And Hot Tub Time Machine too. And the first two collection. Yeah, I realize that now. It's a signal and that's why I'm trying to pay more attention to those things now because I am the chief interpreter for Limbrook of Body language. How to tell when somebody's sending you a signal when somebody is desperately uncomfortable because their wife walks into them, walks in on them with two women in your brother's apartment. I'm really trying to help Limbrook recognize when people feel good, bad, in between. [00:08:15] Speaker B: What shape we know and you know what, what a power that's going to be. Because this episode is called The Apartment. It's season three, episode eleven and it's all about those awkward moments between lion husbands and wives who know way more than they're given credit for. Robert's new apartment is beautiful. Women all over the place, they're like Termites. Ray can't stay away and that's all you need to know about that. We're going to be talking about this episode all the way through this entire podcast. So make sure you listen to the whole thing. And that is a threat, not a promise. [00:08:54] Speaker A: I will say that I loved the description that you used of the women are like Termites because if that's the. [00:09:00] Speaker B: Analogy yeah, Robert's the Wood Ray is. [00:09:03] Speaker A: For sure the exterminator though. [00:09:06] Speaker B: Dude's got no fucking game. [00:09:08] Speaker A: You saw the way that he interacted with the woman. This was deer in headlights from start to finish. It was not pretty. [00:09:15] Speaker C: I have to say I found particularly the scene where Deborah walks in on him with the women in Robert's apartment to be some of the funniest, farce comedy that I've seen in this show. I don't always laugh out loud at these episodes. But this was hilarious to me. [00:09:38] Speaker B: I was just about to say the first time in probably like five or six episodes I have laughed audibly is when Robert came out saying, here's your money, girl. [00:09:48] Speaker C: Ray, debra coming. He's got the sparkling water for the women and Deborah coming in. He's got the two glasses. His cover for that he chugs both of the glasses was just so funny to me. I just loved it. [00:10:06] Speaker A: I also loved the little burp after. [00:10:08] Speaker C: It and turning around. [00:10:13] Speaker B: The physical comedy in this episode is strong. It's probably the second most prevalent thing in this episode aside from just the shearing awkwardness that just is felt throughout the entire thing. [00:10:28] Speaker A: Honestly, to say the first moment that we really got that moment was just the elevator scene where Ray sticks his whole ass body in between the closing elevator doors. [00:10:40] Speaker C: That was great, great physical. [00:10:43] Speaker B: I have a question for you guys just because I haven't been able to really think of an example, but has there ever been a time in this show where Ray has talked to a woman, either his age or maybe even a little younger, who is conventionally attractive and not married and not related to him? Because I think this might just be how he talks to all women that he is not related to. [00:11:07] Speaker C: A good question. [00:11:09] Speaker A: So my thought immediately goes to omiden might probably haven't gotten to this episode yet because I feel like we would have remembered it, but there is a episode where Ray loses his wedding ring. It goes down a drain or something. [00:11:22] Speaker C: Yeah, I remember that. [00:11:24] Speaker A: And then at the airport he gets hit on by a conventionally attractive woman and he doesn't realize it's happening until she asks him for a drink. And he's like, oh no, I'm married. And Deborah gets pissed at. Uh, so that's where my mind goes. [00:11:42] Speaker B: I will bet $100 that that episode was at least partially written by Ray Romano. Sorry, continue, Mike. [00:11:50] Speaker A: For sure, absolutely. Well, all of these I think, are partially written by Ray, so that's why. [00:11:56] Speaker B: It'S a good bet. [00:11:57] Speaker C: Season one, episode 20 Neighbors kathy Ladman and Patricia Belcher are women and they are in Ray's house. [00:12:10] Speaker A: That's right. [00:12:11] Speaker C: Watching the video of Know flashing the I. [00:12:20] Speaker B: That was an old episode. That feels like more recent. [00:12:22] Speaker A: We also had the Angelina episode, which much creepier. [00:12:26] Speaker C: That's true. [00:12:28] Speaker B: That was not a normal conversation on Ray's part. [00:12:30] Speaker C: I don't know about women his age, but there's the dog where he's talking to patients Cleveland, who's probably about his age at this point. [00:12:40] Speaker A: Legend of Elelr patients. Cleveland. [00:12:44] Speaker C: Don't remember character's name, but nope, just Patience Cleveland. And also the ride along talks to Judy if you want to. Aunt Sereno was not related to him, but she's also about his age. [00:13:01] Speaker A: Yeah, conventionally attractive, though. Checks that box. [00:13:05] Speaker C: Oh, yeah. Hell yeah. We've seen the posters in your apartment. You've got all Italian grandmothers. [00:13:16] Speaker A: Yeah, in hot tubs. [00:13:18] Speaker C: In hot tubs. [00:13:19] Speaker B: So I'm looking around. I see obviously, most of these hot tubs are empty, but this one's full, and it's bubbling. I mean, I don't know about you guys. I brought my swimsuit. [00:13:30] Speaker C: I brought a pot roast. [00:13:32] Speaker B: Yo, toss that baby in a little splash. [00:13:36] Speaker A: I brought some pasta. [00:13:38] Speaker C: Okay. Throw that in there. [00:13:39] Speaker A: Got it. [00:13:40] Speaker C: Yeah, maybe some. And salt the water. For sure. [00:13:44] Speaker B: We'll feed the whole town. [00:13:46] Speaker C: Yeah, distract what do you call them? I'll distract the salesperson. You guys got it? [00:13:55] Speaker A: I'm getting in. [00:13:56] Speaker C: Yeah, get in. You give it a little bit of that the most important ingredient. [00:14:01] Speaker A: Yeah, you got it. [00:14:02] Speaker C: Love. [00:14:02] Speaker B: At the end, you won't be able to tell the difference between me and this pot roast anyway. [00:14:09] Speaker A: I'm going to put my dick in it. [00:14:10] Speaker C: Excuse me. I need a little bit of help over here in this section. That's on the other side of the store. Are you busy? Can you help me find what I'm looking for? [00:14:20] Speaker B: Well, hey, there. [00:14:21] Speaker D: Yeah, absolutely. [00:14:22] Speaker C: Hi. [00:14:22] Speaker D: I can help you. [00:14:24] Speaker C: Garrett says your name tag is Garrett, and I'm supposed to ask you about your kid. I don't really want to ask you about your kids. [00:14:33] Speaker D: Oh, my you want to take a look at him? Here he is. He's on the phone. [00:14:38] Speaker C: You opened up your little vest, and you've got, like, pictures of Davey, like, fake Rolexes in there. Are these for sale? [00:14:46] Speaker D: I mean, for the right know? [00:14:50] Speaker C: I don't know if you want to be selling pictures of your children for the right price. Garrett, is there someone else who can help? [00:14:58] Speaker B: Hey. Hey, you garrett. Get the hell out of here. You don't work here no more. [00:15:03] Speaker D: You can't come on. [00:15:04] Speaker B: Get out of here. [00:15:05] Speaker D: Let me turn a profit. I'm retired. [00:15:07] Speaker C: Wait. His name tag didn't say Garrett. It said Jared maybe. Sorry. [00:15:13] Speaker B: He's not welcome here no more. After the allegations. [00:15:18] Speaker C: Can you help me find something? [00:15:21] Speaker B: Garrett, go home. Take the subway. [00:15:25] Speaker C: I guess we got to leave it in now. [00:15:28] Speaker B: I can help you, sir. What are you looking for today? [00:15:32] Speaker C: And your name is? Just I like to know. [00:15:36] Speaker B: You can call me Joey. [00:15:37] Speaker C: Hi, Joey. I'm Adam. Your body language is reading very competent, and dare I say, hunky. [00:15:47] Speaker B: Oh, thank you for noticing. I intentionally hunk out my body. [00:15:52] Speaker C: Does it sell more hot tubs? [00:15:54] Speaker B: Nope. [00:15:55] Speaker C: Okay, so you don't, like, get in and model. [00:15:57] Speaker B: This is just how to be. Garrett used to be the model, and then everything that happened, happened. We dealt with it. We settled out of court, and now he's just not welcome here anymore. [00:16:11] Speaker C: Okay. Did notice a distinct lack of publicity photos around the store of usually you go into a hot tub store, you see hunky men in hot tub. But anyway, we took them down. Okay? [00:16:25] Speaker B: We took them down. [00:16:25] Speaker C: Joey, I need your help on this side of the store. Don't look over no, no. Over here where there are the verticals the standing hot tubs that you get. [00:16:38] Speaker B: Yes. [00:16:39] Speaker D: Stay under there. Pob roast. [00:16:40] Speaker B: Well, right here, it's your typical one man show. It opens and closes like a mold. You have to keep your hands very still and then it encapsulates all over. You very good on water efficiency. [00:16:54] Speaker C: Right. [00:16:55] Speaker B: As far as mobility and freedom of movement, there is none. It can fit into basically any corner. Over here we have our double decker models. You see, if you could have one friend standing on top of the other, the one friend on the bottom is going to have to get really good at holding his breath because again, it is just all one system. Water fills up. It's great if you don't like living. [00:17:21] Speaker C: So this is either a double where one person sits on the other shoulders or a single for a very tall person. [00:17:29] Speaker B: I suppose it is okay if you know anyone that's eight foot five. [00:17:33] Speaker C: Actually, I met somebody last week, but I don't know if he's still around. Do you have one that is vertical, but also that you can maybe put seven people lined up for? Like I don't know what I'm trying to say. [00:17:52] Speaker B: Do you have dimensions, Adam? [00:17:54] Speaker D: Check it out. I'm wearing my noodle hair. [00:17:57] Speaker C: That's my friend. He's got a fun hat that you don't need to look at right now. [00:18:01] Speaker B: Oh, okay. [00:18:05] Speaker C: This is a big day for him. But you don't need buying the hot tub. He's currently shopping around. He's just browsing. He might make a purchase. Here are the dimensions for my friend's apartment. To call it a studio would be generous. So that's why I'm more interested in these svelte sort of economy models, these compact. [00:18:29] Speaker B: I see. I think I have just the model for you. Let's come with me. Walk this way. [00:18:36] Speaker C: Okay. Beautiful scarf, by the way. Were you? [00:18:39] Speaker D: Don't forget the soy sauce. [00:18:42] Speaker B: Soy sauce. [00:18:44] Speaker C: He works in a Chinese restaurant. [00:18:47] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Konichiwa. [00:18:50] Speaker C: Oh, boy. I don't know if I like you either, Joe. This store yeah. [00:18:58] Speaker B: We got a lot of problems. [00:19:00] Speaker C: So what are you showing me? What's, over here? [00:19:02] Speaker B: Yeah, over here. This might be the model you're looking for. So vertically, it's 6ft tall. [00:19:09] Speaker C: Okay. [00:19:09] Speaker B: That foot on the bottom is where we store the jets. They get blown straight up. [00:19:13] Speaker C: Wow. [00:19:13] Speaker B: Make your dick fly like one of those wacky inflatable tube men's, which is wonderful. It's a very good feeling. [00:19:20] Speaker C: That is probably an attractive feature for my friend. [00:19:24] Speaker B: Yes. You climb in on the side, there's like a ladder that you go up in. [00:19:27] Speaker C: Got it. [00:19:28] Speaker B: It's 3ft wide, 6ft long. It's basically just like a standing jacuzzi. You walk in, your friend I don't know, he looks to be about 411. [00:19:39] Speaker C: Well, don't look at probably going to. [00:19:40] Speaker B: Have to stand on his tippy toes. I could just tell from here. [00:19:46] Speaker C: He. [00:19:47] Speaker B: Gives off that vibe. [00:19:49] Speaker C: Well, he gets a lot of voice roles as children for voice acting. [00:19:55] Speaker B: It's really a compliment in a performative setting. He might be the one who usually plays the children. Anyway, so yeah, we also sell these. [00:20:06] Speaker D: Could you turn back on the jets unlock to do the dick flap? [00:20:10] Speaker B: I'm going to get my gun. Garrett, I swear to God. [00:20:15] Speaker C: Is there another hot tub store or another branch of this store that maybe. [00:20:21] Speaker B: No. [00:20:26] Speaker C: We can't afford to buy a hot tub and pay the exit toll to leave limbrook, so we're kind of can I ask a question about this hot tub right here? You said it's 3ft wide. Is that 3ft wide, like side to side, or 3ft wide depth? And if not, what is the depth? [00:20:47] Speaker B: The side to side is 3ft wide rhymes easy to get through any door. The actual depth or the width inside the actual hot tub is 2ft and two and a half feet. [00:21:02] Speaker C: Okay, so it extends two and a half feet out from the wall? [00:21:06] Speaker B: Yes. [00:21:07] Speaker C: Okay. I ask because for the dick flapping jet functionality, that is more than enough space for my friend. I was just worried maybe it'll hit the glass. [00:21:19] Speaker B: Evidently I forgot to mention, like, the whole front is just glass. There's no actual physical wall. So you could see the dicks swaying in the wind. [00:21:28] Speaker C: That was my understanding. [00:21:28] Speaker B: That is what you desire. Yeah, no, I forgot to mention that for your listeners at home, because I see you're carrying around a microphone. [00:21:35] Speaker C: Oh, this old thing? Well, I mean, I work on a podcast. Maybe you've heard of it. I know it looks like all the speakers and TVs in this place have been smashed. [00:21:47] Speaker B: Oh, you're the boys who do the Raymond thing. [00:21:50] Speaker C: Yeah, we recap every episode of Everybody Loves Raymond and we play the episodes for the town over yeah, we get. [00:22:00] Speaker B: Them on that model over there. It's a Jacuzzi, but the bottom is a screen. So you look down and you watch the TV. Very hard to see through all the bubbles, but no one's perfect. [00:22:10] Speaker C: No, indeed. But yeah, I'm glad. Were you able to watch it, though? You were able to submerge your head under the bubbles to well, yeah, the. [00:22:19] Speaker B: Bubbles aren't actually in there. We just turn it on its side and use it as a very expensive TV. [00:22:24] Speaker C: That explains why there is about an inch of water all over the entire floor of this place. You saw season three, episode eleven, though. [00:22:34] Speaker B: The apartment. [00:22:35] Speaker C: Yeah, the apartment. Did you have any specific sort of reaction to it? I mean, there was a lot going on, particularly hot tub wise. [00:22:44] Speaker D: There were a lot of beautiful women. [00:22:46] Speaker C: Garrett. [00:22:46] Speaker B: Garrett. My God. [00:22:47] Speaker C: Even I know it's not my place, but I know you don't work here. [00:22:53] Speaker B: Getting the bear traps. [00:22:55] Speaker D: Listen, I just need another just I would love another commission. [00:23:01] Speaker B: Go to the hot tub store across the street. You didn't hear that, Mr. Adam. [00:23:05] Speaker C: What? Do you not just want some money, Garrett? Like, why do you need to earn it, I guess, is my question. [00:23:13] Speaker D: Hard days living. I'm a capitalist at the end of the day. [00:23:16] Speaker C: Okay. I'm sure capitalism appreciates your endorsement. Yeah, I have money. [00:23:21] Speaker D: I'd love some money. [00:23:23] Speaker C: Okay. Your body language is telling me exactly what you're going to use the money for, so I'm not inclined to give it to you. You are fully hunched over, almost cowering like some sort of I mean, the only word is golem. [00:23:39] Speaker D: I need that hot tub, man. [00:23:41] Speaker C: Garrett, you need to sell a hot tub so that you can buy your own hot tub. [00:23:47] Speaker D: I'll lead people to a treasure I myself cannot. [00:23:52] Speaker B: Hey, that's funny. Now you die. [00:23:55] Speaker C: Okay, well, before oh, thank you. The episode. And, Garrett, if you must, I kind of don't want you to be murdered in front of me, so I will allow you to respond. [00:24:11] Speaker B: I have a few thoughts. [00:24:12] Speaker C: Yeah. Your thoughts on the hot tub. Robert says that the women hog the hot tub, and he's kind of down. [00:24:18] Speaker B: About a yeah, that is a sad shame. It is a symptom that we're trying to deal with. The anti women functions on these hot tubs are up and running for the most part. We're trying to get rid of them. They are like termites in a way, just trying to sit and enjoy the hot tub. [00:24:41] Speaker C: How is that simile getting around town so quickly? [00:24:46] Speaker B: Comes and goes. It just makes our way into our brains. Kind of like termites anyway. [00:24:52] Speaker C: Yes, you're saying so. [00:24:53] Speaker B: Yeah. It is a problem in the hot tub community. There's a lot of work and research being done to make it a better experience for the rest of us. [00:25:06] Speaker D: I like it. [00:25:07] Speaker B: Yeah. Garrett likes it because he likes women. [00:25:10] Speaker C: Shocker. [00:25:12] Speaker D: It said to auntie. You said it to the other way. [00:25:15] Speaker C: Uncle. [00:25:16] Speaker D: Good. What? [00:25:17] Speaker C: You said the one way was auntie, so the other way would be yeah. [00:25:22] Speaker D: You said it to the other one. And you get uncle woman you get Uncle George women joins your hot tub. It's like a beaconing symbol. It's great. [00:25:32] Speaker C: Senator Uncle George women who represented New York in the 70s. [00:25:39] Speaker D: Yeah, that's the guy. [00:25:41] Speaker C: And he was big on watergate, right? Yeah, because he wanted to add bubbles. [00:25:47] Speaker D: He was all in for the bubble bath. And I'll tell you what. He comes in, he's bringing the bubble mixture. It's actually quite invasive, if you ask me. [00:25:55] Speaker B: I would like to elaborate on the bubble mixture, actually, because there was a dangerous scene shown in this show at the hot clothes when Marie comes in with the bubble soaps and pours them into the Jacuzzi. That is a very dangerous thing to practice. Please do not try that at home. It's very similar to mentos and Coke. You don't want to get the soap bubbles in the already bubbling Jacuzzi. You will explode and potentially die. It's not something that you want to do. [00:26:23] Speaker D: I've done it eight times. [00:26:25] Speaker B: And that explains a lot about Garrett and a lot about this restraining order that he does not follow. [00:26:31] Speaker D: I like when it goes fool and. [00:26:33] Speaker C: I go into the air and it goes into you. One has to assume. [00:26:38] Speaker D: Yeah. That's why I need a new one. [00:26:40] Speaker C: Cleans you out. [00:26:41] Speaker B: Really cleans out the insides to one use troll pony. So that's my take on the hot tub sections of this episode. [00:26:49] Speaker C: Yeah, I wanted to let's talk about the hot mean we don't worry. This is all going to get edited in the show. You're actually the first person I'm talking to today, but oh, hell yeah. End of the episode, they're all sitting, ray, Frank and Robert sitting in the hot tub in what used to be Robert's room and is now Frank's lounge. I thought Marie was joking when she said he wanted to turn it into a bathroom. Like a bathroom in sort of the sense of a place where know expels the waste of his know and can be freely naked. Freely nude. And the design of the bathroom I found hideous. Teal and wood paneling is not a great mix. Thoughts? [00:27:37] Speaker B: Yeah, I have many thoughts on that. You may think I am even an artist in this case with all the thoughts I have on this. Teal and wood don't really go together, especially that shade of teal. I'm looking at it now. It's kind of a grayish teal. Really clashes with the browns in the wood. You're going to want to get something a lot more bright and vibrant. I would suggest like a nice oceanic blue to go with that wood. I think that would look much better. [00:28:04] Speaker C: What would go with no pun intended. What would go with teal? What wood would go with teal? [00:28:11] Speaker B: Maybe like a nice stone. Like kind of something that is also a grayish color. Maybe a little light, a lighter value wise. Like a whitish gray stone. That's what I would pick. [00:28:24] Speaker C: Stone. Something hard wood. [00:28:26] Speaker B: Something to make the teal kind of shine but not really match it value wise is what I would say. And I know this stuff because I know hot tubs. [00:28:36] Speaker C: Have you designed some of these hot tubs? Honestly are beautiful. Do you design them yourself? [00:28:42] Speaker B: No, we get them from the shop up north. [00:28:46] Speaker C: But you select the stock? [00:28:48] Speaker B: No, they sell us whatever they have. [00:28:51] Speaker C: You get like a mystery box of hot tubs every week. [00:28:55] Speaker B: We subscribe to Hot Tub Mystery Box from the same people that brought you Hot Tub Time Machine. [00:29:02] Speaker C: Hey, I heard a rumor that there is a hot tub time machine here. Is there any truth in that? [00:29:11] Speaker D: Yes. [00:29:12] Speaker B: Garrett. [00:29:13] Speaker C: Garrett what? You know, actually, I'm really interested in that hot tub time machine. I might be warming up to Garrett. [00:29:21] Speaker B: Son, let me tell you something. That hot tub time machine is not worth a dime. It is going to destroy your life. It's going to destroy everything. If you like your life in any way, I suggest you stay the hell away from it. [00:29:34] Speaker D: There's a funny way, and I'll give it to you. [00:29:37] Speaker B: Stop it. [00:29:37] Speaker C: Wait. What was that price again? [00:29:39] Speaker D: $20. [00:29:40] Speaker B: $20,000. [00:29:43] Speaker C: Okay. Let me check with my I need to check with my compatriots. [00:29:47] Speaker B: But you very well could disrupt all of history. [00:29:51] Speaker C: Well, Garrett, don't go away. Joey, don't kill Garrett. I'm going to check with my friends. [00:29:58] Speaker D: That guy had to think on a $20 pitch for a time. [00:30:01] Speaker C: We're trying to buy a hot. Let me just check with my friends. I will be right back. Please don't kill each other. Honestly. [00:30:12] Speaker B: I'm getting the knives. Get out the knives. [00:30:15] Speaker C: Oh, yeah. Look at all these knives on the walls of the hot tub store. Okay, I'll be right back. Hey, guys. [00:30:21] Speaker B: The spaghetti is so warm. It's kind of gross. I feel all noodley. [00:30:30] Speaker A: It looks like I got curly hair. It looks like I got curly hair. I'm still on that. It's great. [00:30:34] Speaker B: I'm eating Mike's hair. [00:30:36] Speaker D: Yeah, it's great. It's awesome. You'll never guess where the pot roast is. [00:30:42] Speaker B: Yeah, it's gone. Let's leave it at that. [00:30:44] Speaker C: It's inaccessible. [00:30:46] Speaker B: Yes. [00:30:47] Speaker C: Okay. [00:30:48] Speaker B: We didn't need it, if that's what you're thinking. [00:30:50] Speaker C: Pardon? [00:30:51] Speaker B: Adam, what'd you find out about hot tubs? [00:30:54] Speaker C: Mike? Did you say for a price? [00:30:56] Speaker D: Yeah, for a price. [00:30:58] Speaker C: It's accessible for a price. [00:31:00] Speaker A: It is accessible for a price. [00:31:02] Speaker C: Okay. Well, how does $20 sound? [00:31:05] Speaker A: You need a little bit of a higher pitch. [00:31:07] Speaker C: Well, how does spending $20 sound? Because I was just talking to the salespeople over there, and they kind of confirmed that the hot tub time machine is in the back. Whoa. [00:31:21] Speaker D: Wow. [00:31:21] Speaker A: What did I tell you guys? I didn't waste my time here. [00:31:25] Speaker B: And they're going to sell it to you for 20 bones. [00:31:27] Speaker C: Between 20 and 20,001. Guy really didn't want me to go anywhere near it. He said something about changing history and if you, like, living some bullshit like that. But another guy was really into it and really excited, and it was going to give us a great deal. [00:31:45] Speaker B: So I feel like mike, how much cash you got? [00:31:48] Speaker A: I had $50, but I got in the hot tub with the cash in my pocket, so it's kind of inaccessible. [00:31:56] Speaker C: I thought this was pesto on the spaghetti. It's melted dollars. [00:32:00] Speaker A: No. You've heard of edible gold? This is edible cash. [00:32:03] Speaker C: You know I've heard of edible gold, Mike. I have my website. Ediblegold.com don't even fuck around. [00:32:09] Speaker A: That's a real thing, by the way. I'm not sure. [00:32:11] Speaker B: Oh, it is. I've eaten gold. It's delicious. [00:32:14] Speaker C: Yeah, I have a website called Ediblegold.com mike, don't talk down to me about edible gold. [00:32:22] Speaker A: Yeah, but I've been to your edible gold, and it's kind of like a website, and it's kind of like a metaphor, like, you're like, this is edible gold, and. It's like a really nice picture. [00:32:31] Speaker C: It's mostly spawn con for Velveeta. [00:32:35] Speaker B: Holy shit. I just went to ediblegold.com on my phone and yeah, there's just a picture. [00:32:40] Speaker C: Of, you know, and he's eating gold. The word enveloped was what? [00:32:47] Speaker B: They don't look it up at home, though. [00:32:48] Speaker C: Enveloped in velveeta envelvita upped. [00:32:53] Speaker A: Feels like a fetish. [00:32:54] Speaker B: I feel like we're getting away from the hot tub one. We need to buy this. [00:32:58] Speaker C: They gave me $10, so, I mean, I'm fine to spend that on the hot tub. [00:33:05] Speaker A: Velveeta gave you $10. [00:33:06] Speaker C: Velveeta gave you $10. [00:33:08] Speaker A: I thought you were saying the salespeople gave you $10 to spend $20 on a time machine. [00:33:13] Speaker C: Velveeta gave me $10 to purchase the domain name ediblegold.com to buy six crates of Velveeta, which I had to melt myself to hire a photographer and take a photograph of myself enveloped in velveeta to put on that website for $10. Worth it. [00:33:37] Speaker A: Listen, I mean, hey, I'm all in for the hot tub time machine. Where are we going? [00:33:41] Speaker B: You know, Mike, I was going to ten more dollars. We would really have to rush getting this hot tub. But if it's the hot tub time machine, we could travel in time to tonight, because tonight is ladies night, of course, the only night. [00:33:56] Speaker C: True. [00:33:57] Speaker B: Ladies king city hall. There you go. We're going to have so many women at this party, and we need the hot. [00:34:10] Speaker C: Have we invited so many women? Ladies night is huge for us. Mike, I know that you haven't been as heavily involved in it as we have, but I've been researching the body language that people do on the dance floor. And ladies night, this has been shown in studies, is correlated with a 5000% increase in paying taxes. [00:34:34] Speaker B: Yes. You know what that means, Mike, with ladies night means Adam's out of the picture. It's just time for us single guys to roam, and Adam has to live vicariously through us. Speaking of which, I will be hanging. I wanted to talk about a certain aspect of this episode with you guys. [00:34:54] Speaker C: Sure. Specifically, do you mind if I, by the way, sit on some of this spaghetti here? [00:35:00] Speaker B: No, please. [00:35:01] Speaker C: I'm running back and forth. [00:35:02] Speaker B: Okay, let me here, have some spaghetti and seatballs, because you're sitting. [00:35:08] Speaker C: That's good. [00:35:08] Speaker B: So the idea of Ray living vicariously through Robert so he could experience dating again is a cool concept, and I want to get into that. But what I really want to talk to you first from both of your perspectives, because you have very different perspectives. Adam being in a heavy partnership with someone he's been with for a long time, and Mike being yeah, well, I don't know. Just a very deeply involved part. I don't know. [00:35:34] Speaker C: No, you're right. That is the only way to describe being married, is a heavy partner. Heavy partnership. [00:35:46] Speaker A: I've heard the word committed. [00:35:48] Speaker B: Yes. Okay. [00:35:50] Speaker C: Alex has been watching a lot of 60s Vietnam movies, and he's picked up some of the terminology. So don't be afraid if he drops words like heavy or calls you man or dude a lot. Anyway, do not bring up the war. [00:36:05] Speaker B: So, men, let me rephrase. I want both of your perspectives on this because Adam is married and Mike is in a committed relationship with his left hand. So I want to know. I saw the subtle smile come on your face, boy. So how do you guys feel about the idea of checking someone out while in a partnership? Not cheating per se, but doing kind of what Ray did, just kind of thinking someone else is hot. Problem or not problem. [00:36:39] Speaker C: What Ray is doing is not thinking someone's hot. It is really creepily staring at women who are in the room with him, like, screaming at Robert about how hot these women that and we don't have a ton of evidence that he has, but you would think that Ray has never been without Deborah near women before. [00:37:07] Speaker B: I believe it. [00:37:08] Speaker C: He is like, big incel vibes from, you know I'm a little worried about Ray. Generally, you can think someone's attractive while you're in a partnership, and it's not a big deal. It all depends on the behavior of it. Right. So Ray lurking around, hanging pictures so that he can ogle women. That seems messed up to me. But if Ray was just know, again, communication, which we often talk about being a problem with Ray, if he had just been talking to Deborah and he had been, you know, and there's a lot of attractive women around, that doesn't cross a line to me at all. That seems like an observation that doesn't necessarily cross over into the behavior of it. [00:38:04] Speaker B: That was a really well put answer. And I agree just in the concept of thinking other people are attractive in a relationship. I think that's absolutely fine. I do think it's something you should establish with your partner of, like, hey, we love each other, but other people exist. And it's fine to think other people in the world are attractive. It would be nice to know you have good taste because you're dating me. That kind of stuff. Yeah. But yes, I also agree that what Ray is doing here is too much, too fast. [00:38:38] Speaker A: Again, I really liked how Frank was just no holds barred, just like, dad. [00:38:45] Speaker D: What are you doing here? I'm here for the broads. [00:38:47] Speaker C: I loved that. I loved him putting on his glasses to throws open the balcony door and just leans over it's a lot harder. [00:38:56] Speaker B: After we've had, like, almost 20 minutes of Ray trying to convince Deborah and himself that that's not why he's there. [00:39:05] Speaker C: Yeah, he's not being honest with himself. Or maybe he is. He's not being honest with Deborah. Yeah, for sure. He's so guilty throughout the whole thing. [00:39:14] Speaker A: That he's not thinking to just I'm just going over there for Robert. [00:39:21] Speaker D: He knows. [00:39:21] Speaker C: Yeah, I know. You're right. [00:39:22] Speaker A: I'm there. You're right to look at women. I'm there to look at one thing. One thing only. That's a butt. [00:39:29] Speaker B: Well, two things. [00:39:30] Speaker A: Two things. Yeah, I guess three. Yeah. [00:39:34] Speaker B: Four. [00:39:35] Speaker A: Their personalities got to include those. Yes. But I will say that. [00:39:43] Speaker D: I don't. [00:39:44] Speaker A: Think that there was a moment in that bedroom scene where Ray is thinking to himself, yeah, I'm actually going over there for Robert. And then discovers it. He full on knows he's lying. He full on I'm I'm lying to my wife, right? [00:39:58] Speaker B: Like, oh my God, Ray, you fucking train wreck, man. Like, all the way through this episode, one of my first lines is just, Ray has no fucking game. And then after that is just like, I wrote Ray with five Y's. This isn't going to end well. And then in quotations, I just want what's breast for loved. [00:40:23] Speaker C: I for whatever reason, on paper, that is not a joke. That resonates with me. But in the not a joke kind of period. What? [00:40:34] Speaker A: It's not just not a joke. [00:40:36] Speaker C: Yeah, it's true. But the way that Ray plays it and the way he plays that whole scene of being so defensive and rationalizing it to Deborah so much, I'm there for Robert. I'm there for Robert. That when he says that and just sort of freezes. I just want what's best for him and then freezes. Looking, like, at the floor over the side of the bed. That body language was so funny to me, and that just set up the rest of the episode. Anytime Ray is confronting this issue, just being the physicality of it really sold it for me. [00:41:21] Speaker B: He's just got this whole, like, even before Deborah says a word to him, he's got this whole, like, oh, fuck, she's on to me vibe to he. He realizes that he's done something that he feels ashamed of in relation to his marriage. And he knows Deborah would not be happy with him about. And so he's just going for the gold of like, I just got to hide this, but it's already too late. He had been going there a couple of days. He knew he was in too deep, and lying about it just made it worse for him in the end. You can't feel bad for this guy. He had a lot of chances for this to not turn out how it did. [00:42:03] Speaker C: Yeah. And I love in this scene, by the way, I want to call out a couple of the lines because there were some really great lines. Deborah being calling him out on know, I just want what's best for him. And him, like, getting very serious all of a sudden. I did not say that. And it's not funny. I'm very, very tired. And then his physicality of pretending to be asleep as Debra asks him what he's actually doing over there. And she says, I think you have more fun over at Roberts. And he's like, how can it be more fun? There's no you over there. And then does the limpest, clammiest head pat that you've ever seen. So funny. And then him culminating in him overcorrecting so hard he rants at her, does a very sharp yawn, a short, sharp yawn. Kisses her and rolls over very aggressively. I just loved just all of that in this. [00:43:07] Speaker B: Oh, absolutely. Mike, do you have any thoughts before I get to my next question? [00:43:12] Speaker A: I loved it. I really wonder. I just love how desperately awkward Ray is, even, like, in the elevator when the woman's like, oh, what was her name? Was it Michelle? [00:43:25] Speaker C: It was Michelle. That was their kind of French song. [00:43:30] Speaker A: Where she's like, hi, I'm Michelle, and he's just like, oh, yeah, I thought that was great. [00:43:38] Speaker C: Can we talk about the lobby of the Crownview Apartments, by the way? [00:43:43] Speaker A: Huge. [00:43:43] Speaker B: What else will we talk about? [00:43:46] Speaker C: Absolutely nothing else. Because it is very odd. There is some horrid hotel art which we called out in the first time we saw Robert's apartment. Also, I want to talk about this sign. The directory that Ray is looking at. It says Crown View Apartments. Another fine single community. [00:44:04] Speaker A: The episode so you could see not only that floors. [00:44:08] Speaker B: Yeah, Mike, didn't you see like for like 30 seconds the episode was paused all over town? [00:44:14] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:44:14] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. I thought I was sleeping. [00:44:17] Speaker B: Thought it was buffering. [00:44:18] Speaker C: Another fine single community developed by Bussey Inc. Sharon Bussey was the show's production designer. Yeah, she's a very successful production designer, too. She's got like, awards and she's been working nonstop. [00:44:35] Speaker B: I'm sorry. [00:44:36] Speaker C: You're very disappointed in finding out. You have to respect this woman. [00:44:41] Speaker A: Yes. [00:44:41] Speaker B: These last couple of years have ruined this last name for really I'm so sorry. [00:44:47] Speaker C: I really want to make it might be pronounced Bus. To be fair, I couldn't find any interviews with her, and I did. [00:44:53] Speaker A: Look, I really, really want this to be the busy apartments. I really do. For Robert's sake. He needs it. [00:45:00] Speaker B: Oh my God. Could you imagine? That man is a bottom bus. It probably is bus or bus or busse. [00:45:10] Speaker C: French. [00:45:11] Speaker B: Yeah, but it's not spelled how we all think it's spelled. [00:45:16] Speaker C: Which's funny. The Crown View Apartments on the sign has an E after crown. Do you think she was like, there's an E at the end of my name? Throw an e on Crown. [00:45:27] Speaker B: Yeah, that's how that works. Weirder things have happened. [00:45:32] Speaker A: Yeah, that's right. [00:45:32] Speaker C: So listen, how are we going to find ten more dollars? [00:45:37] Speaker A: Got the bus for the hot tub. [00:45:42] Speaker B: I am the mayor, so I could just go back to Town Hall and get $10 from the tax vault. [00:45:48] Speaker A: No, but too easy. That's embezzlement. [00:45:53] Speaker B: And look, here's the truth, right? If we leave this store right now and then we come back later, not only will the hot tub time machine not be here, it will have never been here because time travel bullshit. So we have to get it before we leave and preferably before we go on another Everybody Loves Raymond tangent. [00:46:15] Speaker A: What if we sold the spaghetti? [00:46:18] Speaker C: Ding ding. [00:46:20] Speaker B: I hear someone coming into the store. That's what that is. I thought it was a doorbell for a second. [00:46:25] Speaker C: It's like the little I'm looking for a hot tub. Can somebody help me find a hot tub? [00:46:31] Speaker B: Oh, right here, right here, right here. I can help you. I can sell you a time machine for $10. [00:46:36] Speaker C: You must have read it all over my face. I did come in here because I saw the clues on the outside for the hot tub time machine. [00:46:43] Speaker B: Yes, here it is. You could see the time machine, spaghetti and the time machine, man. They're right here, ready for going. The controls are on the inside. And just for you, my friend, it is $10. [00:46:57] Speaker C: It does look a little different from what I've seen in the films, but. [00:47:02] Speaker B: I suppose that's just movie magic, baby. And you know what else? This time machine has gone through time so many times that just it looks different because of what time has done to it. [00:47:16] Speaker C: Wear and tear, as it were. [00:47:19] Speaker B: You mean when and tear? [00:47:22] Speaker C: Yes. [00:47:24] Speaker B: That was good, right? [00:47:25] Speaker C: That was very good. I like that. I like that a lot. Do you mind if I use that? [00:47:30] Speaker B: I don't know if you yeah, no, that's mine. Fuck off. [00:47:33] Speaker C: I don't know if you recognize me. Maybe my long colorful scarf gave it away a little. I'm a certain medical practitioner from across the pond. Harry Potter. That's right. That's me. [00:47:51] Speaker B: Oh, I love your magic tricks, man. Do make $10 appear right now? [00:47:57] Speaker C: Well, I'd have to look in the spell book for that one and then figure out the exchange rate. I do have, I don't know, 50 quid I could give you. [00:48:06] Speaker B: That's worthless, man. [00:48:08] Speaker C: Okay, yeah, I'm not sure what's quid what? [00:48:13] Speaker B: He knows you better. I don't know who you are. [00:48:16] Speaker A: Hey, how you doing? My name is Mike G. I just got done putting the soy sauce in the hot tub. How you doing? [00:48:24] Speaker C: Do you work here, or were you just putting soy sauce in the hot tub? Are you some sort of low stakes domestic terrorist, or do you work here at the hot tub store? [00:48:37] Speaker A: I don't do anything low stakes, I'll tell you that right now. [00:48:41] Speaker C: I guess you'd be using teriyaki if you were low stake terrorist. [00:48:45] Speaker A: Yeah, that's correct. [00:48:47] Speaker C: Teriyaki. [00:48:48] Speaker A: Anyway, do you want to buy some. [00:48:49] Speaker D: Of my hot tub spaghetti? [00:48:52] Speaker B: No, he's buying a hot tub, Mike, with the spaghetti. Because it's damn it. [00:48:56] Speaker A: How are we going to compete with that? We're at the hot tub store. [00:48:59] Speaker B: Mike. [00:49:00] Speaker D: What? [00:49:00] Speaker B: Just tell him it's $10. [00:49:02] Speaker A: It's $10. [00:49:04] Speaker C: All right. Do you take GBP? [00:49:07] Speaker B: We don't deal with AI, sir. [00:49:09] Speaker A: The gross fussy product. I don't know if we can deal with the gross fussy product. [00:49:14] Speaker C: The Great British Pounds. My dear boy. Look, King Charles on the bills. [00:49:20] Speaker A: Doesn't sound too great if there's a king on the bill. That's all I'm saying. [00:49:23] Speaker C: Look, big hands. Big fat hands. King Charles on the bills. Camilla on the back. [00:49:29] Speaker B: Yeah, that's fine. [00:49:30] Speaker C: Look, if you fold it, you can see Meghan and Harry. [00:49:33] Speaker A: That can't be true. [00:49:34] Speaker C: Yeah. Harry Styles. Yeah. You can see Meghan Markle and Harry Styles, who we, the British people, wish she got married to instead of our dear boy, Prince Harry. [00:49:46] Speaker B: Holy shit. [00:49:47] Speaker C: And personally, I wish that she had married me, Harry Potter. That's kind of why I want the machine hold on. Is so I can go back and. [00:49:59] Speaker A: Your goal is to keep the royal family together? [00:50:03] Speaker C: Yes. [00:50:05] Speaker A: By traveling through you, Harry Potter himself. [00:50:09] Speaker C: Well, my intentions are a little more selfish than that. I, Harry Potter, want to marry Meghan Markle because I'm in love with her, but in doing so will save the royal family. [00:50:21] Speaker A: So there are a few logical questions that I have for this. Question number one. [00:50:26] Speaker C: If I continue this conversation with you, am I putting a hold on the hot tub time machine? [00:50:33] Speaker B: No, it's yours. I already took your money and I'm going to bring it to the back to put in the hot tub safe. [00:50:44] Speaker C: Got it? Sounds good to me. Then I'm happy to continue talking to you while he does that. [00:50:50] Speaker A: Harry, my second question is this. You're famously from a franchise that already has a time machine mechanic in it or a time travel mechanic in it. [00:50:59] Speaker D: Why do you need a hot tub? [00:51:00] Speaker C: My dear boy, that was a work of fiction loosely inspired by my own life. Sort of like The Blind Side is based on a true story, but it's not actually a true story. [00:51:11] Speaker A: So magic isn't real? [00:51:13] Speaker C: Well, it depends on your definition of magic. When I look at Meghan Markle, I feel a little bit of magic in the old thumper, the old heart. [00:51:21] Speaker A: Okay, so what I'm gathering is you're thirsty as fuck. [00:51:25] Speaker C: I'm in love. [00:51:27] Speaker A: Did you kill Voldemort? [00:51:28] Speaker C: I am thirsty. Every time I see her, I'd drink two glasses of Perrier, straight up. [00:51:34] Speaker A: You didn't answer the question. [00:51:35] Speaker C: What was your question? [00:51:36] Speaker A: Did you kill Voldemort? [00:51:38] Speaker C: How do you know about Nathan voldemort? The teenager that I killed drunk driving in high school. [00:51:43] Speaker A: So there's kind of a documentary about it. Not sure if you're aware, but I. [00:51:48] Speaker C: Split him into seven pieces with my Taurus. [00:51:52] Speaker D: Jesus Christ. [00:51:53] Speaker A: This got a lot. [00:51:54] Speaker C: Because I ran over him and then I backed up because I was like, what was that? And I ran over him again, and then I backed up again because I wasn't sure. And then I thought I saw my mum calling me from down the street, so I pulled ahead again, and then in doing so, I forgot that I was towing a U hole, so that was six. And then of course, it was towing another U hole behind that, ergo, seven. And would you believe it? He died. [00:52:26] Speaker B: I would believe that. [00:52:28] Speaker A: Actually, to be clear, I would believe that. [00:52:31] Speaker C: That is I thought it was just a speed bump or whatever we called them over there. We must call it like a bumpy wumpy or something. [00:52:39] Speaker A: A bumpy no, it's famously a bumpy wumpy. That's absolutely it. Yeah, that's correct. [00:52:44] Speaker D: I still am going to be honest with you. I don't think I ever have the desire to go over bumpy bumpy seven separate times. [00:52:50] Speaker C: So, anyway, don't tell anyone. That's another thing. That it's lower down on the list, but if I do get the hot tub time machine, I do get to go back in time. I am going to hit the brakes before I run over Nathan Voldemort. At least the first couple of times. [00:53:06] Speaker A: I was going to say that I. [00:53:08] Speaker C: Think that's the I might just keep driving towards my mum down the street, so cut it off at five. [00:53:15] Speaker A: Got it? Understood. Okay. [00:53:18] Speaker C: Do you want to know what was in the two U Hauls? [00:53:21] Speaker A: Do I want to know what was. [00:53:22] Speaker D: In the two U Hauls? [00:53:23] Speaker A: I feel like I'm going to regret knowing, because every moment that I have continued to talk to you has made my existence worse. [00:53:31] Speaker C: I'm an interesting person. What can I say? That's why they based eight movies on me. [00:53:35] Speaker D: What was in the U Hauls? [00:53:37] Speaker C: It's about 30, 40, 50 brooms. I was working as a house cleaner at the time, so I was going around doing a lot of sweeping, and then my signature was always to leave a little gold chocolate bowl behind and I would write a little note that says, don't snitch. [00:53:55] Speaker A: Starting to think you also might be the inspiration for Santa Claus. Actually, that's also pretty cool. [00:54:02] Speaker B: Hey, Harry, what was your we have met. [00:54:04] Speaker D: How long have you been in limbrook? [00:54:06] Speaker C: I've been here for, well, gee, when did I I started studying at Hofstra University for my Masters in Fine Arts and Poetry. And this was the only place I could afford to live because those residuals dried up quick. J K Simmons holds on to those like you wouldn't believe. [00:54:25] Speaker B: JK simmons. [00:54:26] Speaker D: J k. Simmons. [00:54:29] Speaker C: A lot of people don't know that, Rowling. [00:54:32] Speaker B: No, no. J K Simmons is too great a man to put in the same category. [00:54:38] Speaker C: Well, that's why he didn't want to put his name on the drivel that he wrote about my life. It started as a group therapy exercise, because I was in group with him, because we were both battling some pretty serious demons. I ran over another boy, and as you know, he was quite an abusive music teacher for a period of time. I ran over a boy and he smashed a drum set over a boy's head. So we were in sort of an anger management class, and one of the assignments was write a book about somebody who is also in the class. So he wrote about me, I wrote about him, and that's where he got the idea for Farmers Insurance commercials, where he plays the insurance guy and the rest is history. [00:55:21] Speaker A: That's fascinating. [00:55:22] Speaker C: Does that answer your question? [00:55:24] Speaker A: Yes. [00:55:25] Speaker B: I'm back. I'm here to stop whatever. I'm here to save you, Mike. Mr. Popper, I just got to ask. [00:55:33] Speaker D: Him about the episode. I wanted to know Harry Potter's thoughts. [00:55:38] Speaker A: Raymond. [00:55:39] Speaker B: Jesus Christ. I just gave him the fake British money and we were going to take the real time. [00:55:43] Speaker C: You can call it Britney money. That's what we call it. [00:55:46] Speaker B: Yes, fake money. Also in the other room, I heard you go, Mr. Potter, I'm in love. And Mike just going, did you kill Voldemort? Killed me. [00:55:57] Speaker C: Well, I've been trying to put that behind me, but to answer your question, very funny. And it was behind me because I drove away and have not been caught to this day. So don't tell me one. Yeah, I watched the episode on channel Four, of course, when it aired back in 1998. Do you have any specific questions about it for me? [00:56:20] Speaker A: I would love to know. Specifically, do you have any younger children or siblings or anything like that? [00:56:29] Speaker C: I have younger children and siblings, yes. [00:56:33] Speaker A: I don't know if this is true for you, but the scene where Allie was getting her shoes tightened over and over again felt very real to me. [00:56:40] Speaker B: That definitely feels like a thing a kid would oh, yeah. Asking for them to be even. I've got a question, Harry, and I've been meaning to talk. I wanted to talk about this with Adam, but since he fucked off to. [00:56:56] Speaker C: Hell knows where so, Garrett, what was prison like? [00:57:00] Speaker A: I'll tell you what, it was a time and a half. I was really rough until I infiltrated the Aryan Gang and then I became the leader. [00:57:13] Speaker D: It was great. [00:57:13] Speaker A: I ran that place. [00:57:16] Speaker C: Were you in that prison where they started? Bussing in Subway. Was that you? Bussing in Subway. [00:57:24] Speaker B: It's pronounced busseying in subway. [00:57:28] Speaker D: Yeah. Thanks, Joey. [00:57:29] Speaker C: What did you want to ask me about Alex? [00:57:32] Speaker B: Yeah, so I mentioned this earlier about living vicariously and I wanted to know your thoughts. You too, Mike. I guess about the idea of Ray wanting to kind of have that vicarious dating life through Robert basically being interested in him because he kind of wants to have that experience again, because I actually kind of related to that in two ways. And I'll get to that when I hear your answers. But how do you feel about oh. [00:58:03] Speaker A: Actually, I'll let Harry answer first. [00:58:05] Speaker C: Thank you. That's very considerate of you. I kind of want to hear your perspective as well, because I've been married for quite a while now and I don't really married Potter, mary Potter. And don't tell my wife that I'm trying to go back in time to marry Meghan Markle. [00:58:22] Speaker A: Yeah, I was going to say there's something a little fucked here too. [00:58:25] Speaker C: Yeah, it's sort of like a marriage in name only. For the kids sake, we're taking Blink 180 two's advice and staying together for the kids I love, especially early 2000s Blink 182 big pop punk fan. [00:58:42] Speaker A: Interesting. [00:58:43] Speaker C: Anyway, I've been married for a while and I feel personally for my life, the benefits of having a long term partner sort of outweigh. I guess I just wasn't a good dater when I was single swinging bachelor. But I don't really miss it. I don't really miss playing the field. And I'm more content not with my wife, obviously, at this point. But for several years there, I was more content just having a long term partner that I could spend my life with and go on adventures and do battle with other wizards in the park with pretend wands. Because I do show up at those things, sign autographs, make a couple bob. [00:59:32] Speaker B: So you're saying you can't really relate to the idea of wanting to kind of get involved in someone else's dating life for not even get involved, but kind of just hear and learn about it to kind of experience that type of feeling of getting to know someone again. [00:59:49] Speaker C: Well, I think the degree to which you're doing that ray is clearly like living vicariously through Robert. He wants, you know, shag all these women. But if it's more like he's just supporting Robert and going on the journey with him, then I think that's great, that's fun. I'm all for that is not what Ray's doing. Ray wants pictures, videos, detail. Like, he wants to know what's going on in the hot tub. He wants to see where the jets have been, so to speak. [01:00:23] Speaker B: I think he just wants to put himself in Robert's shoes. [01:00:26] Speaker A: Were there lines that Ray dropped about all that? Because here's what I took away from that. I thought Ray was being a shitty brother, not because he was living vicariously through Robert, but because he didn't care about Robert. It sounded like he was there to look at these know he doesn't treat them like people and then move on. [01:00:44] Speaker B: I don't remember him. [01:00:47] Speaker A: I know that he encouraged Robert to ask out Michelle, but I don't remember him being like, oh, dude, you got to tell me how big is her butt? Or anything like that. I don't remember. [01:00:57] Speaker B: Well, no, because he could see it for, uh well, it was more just a few lines dropped in the episode. One being Deborah saying, oh, so you come here to live vicariously through Robert. [01:01:09] Speaker A: Yes, deborah said that. [01:01:10] Speaker B: And Ray's like, yes. [01:01:12] Speaker C: I think Ray's whole attitude when he first shows up at Robert's apartment of especially the line know, he sees all the women, he's know, Are there any men here? And Robert's like and this is kind of a homophobic line. There's male nurses and flight attendants, or as we would call them, air hosts. In the UK. [01:01:35] Speaker A: Get out of. [01:01:38] Speaker D: Know. [01:01:39] Speaker A: I don't know why air hosts is where I've drawn the line after you confess to attempted adultery and manslaughter, but there was something about it's not adultery. [01:01:51] Speaker C: If I go back in time to do it, dear boy, because I was never married, it's still probably adultery. [01:01:58] Speaker D: I don't know where the line is. But you currently were you would have. [01:02:01] Speaker A: Would have been. [01:02:04] Speaker C: My point is Ray's reaction to that, of like, oh, so you're the king of the kingdom. What the hell is wrong with you? Robert? This is a very nice place to live. Like, he's freaking out. He's like, Come on, get out. Know, shag all these women. Shag drifting a little bit into Austin Powers territory. I'm going to pull back. But he does seem and he says to Robert, he says, I've never been more jealous of you. Which boosts Robert's ego a little bit. I like how Brad Garrett plays it in that scene. He sort of, like, picks himself up. He's like, oh, well, okay. But it's a very shallow thing for him to be excited about. Of like, oh, you get to stare at all these women. [01:02:53] Speaker B: It's very in character for Robert. [01:02:57] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, for in character for Robert. [01:02:59] Speaker B: For him to feel that way, for Ray to be envious of him in any way, basically just makes Robert's ear. So, yeah, that's some interesting perspectives from you guys. And I generally agree with basically everything. I'm looking through my now wet notes to see what else I want to talk about. [01:03:23] Speaker C: So this is fascinating and all I'd love to talk about it when I get back, but can I have the is the time machine ready? [01:03:32] Speaker B: Yep. Get in there and get going. Mike, can I speak with you in the back, please? [01:03:37] Speaker A: Yeah, I guess so. [01:03:38] Speaker C: Do we thank you lowering myself into this pasta? [01:03:42] Speaker B: No, we gave him a fake time machine. [01:03:44] Speaker C: Just lowering myself into this pasta, which is how we pronounce it over there. [01:03:49] Speaker B: Have you been paying attention? I sold him on a fake one. Come on, let's get the real one before he figures it out. [01:03:54] Speaker A: It wasn't 100% clear to me. All right, let's go. [01:03:57] Speaker B: I was very clear. But also that was, like, half an hour ago because he just would not stop talking about his life. [01:04:03] Speaker A: Listen, I mean hey, guys, come over here. [01:04:05] Speaker C: Come over here. You got the money? You got the money? [01:04:09] Speaker B: Yeah. Here's 50 British Mundons, okay, which should account for $10. [01:04:15] Speaker C: Garrett, we believe we have $10 and 50 great British pounds. Look. King Charles on the front, camilla on the back. [01:04:22] Speaker D: Wait, hold on. Do you got the Harry and Marco. [01:04:25] Speaker B: When you hold it, check it out. [01:04:27] Speaker C: Look, Harry and Meghan on this side, 911 on this side. [01:04:31] Speaker D: Holy shit. [01:04:32] Speaker B: Yeah, they didn't forget either. [01:04:34] Speaker C: It's a whole thing. That's a real one. No, you fold up like a dollar bill. [01:04:41] Speaker D: That can't be. A real thing. Oh, my goodness. [01:04:45] Speaker C: It is a real thing. You didn't see that in prison. [01:04:50] Speaker D: Believe it or not, I must have missed that era. [01:04:53] Speaker C: You weren't in prison in, like, the late 2000s. No, you're right. That timeline wouldn't make sense for you if you are who you. I think I know the guy who busted you by the yeah, yeah. Private inspector. [01:05:09] Speaker D: Oh, fuck that guy. He sucks. [01:05:11] Speaker C: Okay, we don't need to talk about him. Just noticing that Jared is on our minds. So here's the oh, thank you very much. [01:05:22] Speaker D: You can get in that hot tub time machine and see you never. [01:05:25] Speaker C: Okay, where is it? Can you show us where it is? [01:05:28] Speaker D: It's literally that hot tub right over there. You push it back, you put the. [01:05:32] Speaker A: Button in, and you get in. [01:05:34] Speaker C: Okay, cool. [01:05:35] Speaker B: All right, we'll figure it out. [01:05:36] Speaker C: Hot tub over here. Teal and wood. [01:05:39] Speaker B: It's comfy. [01:05:40] Speaker C: Push the button. [01:05:41] Speaker D: Don't forget the bubble bath mixture. [01:05:43] Speaker C: The bubble bath mixture. Okay, so here we go. Okay, so Garrett pours the bubble bath mixture on top of the empty hot tub, and it's sort of like Indiana Jones style, like depresses and unlocks and sort of spirals down into a spiral staircase. It's actually more Harry Potter, come to think of it, but it's a secret entrance. Whoa. Shit. [01:06:10] Speaker A: There we go. [01:06:10] Speaker C: This is incredible. I see why they call it legendary hot tubs. Okay, are you going to come down with us, or are we, like, on our own from this? [01:06:21] Speaker D: Going to I'm going to wait till somebody else makes a higher bid, then kick you all out. [01:06:25] Speaker B: Sounds good. Guys, let's get out of here. Let's get the time machine and go, okay? [01:06:30] Speaker C: We got to get down here before Joey sees us. By the way, guys, I got to. [01:06:34] Speaker D: Ask you a question. [01:06:35] Speaker C: What's up, Garrett? We're sort of halfway down into the staircase, but but what do you need? [01:06:42] Speaker D: You want to buy pictures of my no, no. [01:06:46] Speaker B: Go jump in the river. Let's go. [01:06:47] Speaker C: We see Joey cock a rifle. [01:06:53] Speaker B: To be continued. Never. [01:06:55] Speaker C: We gotta get out of go. Let's go. And it closes behind us as we start going down this shit. It's dark. Mike, you have your torch that you carry? [01:07:05] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:07:06] Speaker B: Here we go. [01:07:06] Speaker C: And I do mean torch in the. [01:07:11] Speaker B: Oh, I have that one. Here you go, Mike. [01:07:13] Speaker C: Okay, don't light a fire down here until we know whether or not it's highly flammable. Hold on. [01:07:22] Speaker A: Let's see. [01:07:23] Speaker B: We've got a whole bunch of hot tubs down here. We've got hot tub, disco ball, dusty dinosaur cobwebs all over the hot tub. Vegas buffet. [01:07:35] Speaker C: Wow, still full of shrimp. [01:07:37] Speaker B: Hot tub. Time machine. [01:07:39] Speaker C: Hot tub. [01:07:39] Speaker B: It's the fourth one down because I couldn't see any of the other thousands of funny names that are on here, but I'm not going to say these. [01:07:46] Speaker C: Are all the hot tubs that never sold. Wow. Too specific, I guess. This one look, this one has what is that called? Like fiberglass mannequins of Ray, Frank and Robert in it. [01:08:00] Speaker A: Oh, I was wondering where that one went. [01:08:02] Speaker C: So that you can always hot clothes. Yeah, the hot tub hot clothes. You can always reenact the scene in Frank's lounge. [01:08:08] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:08:08] Speaker C: What did you guys think of by the way? I guess we should do the time machine first. [01:08:18] Speaker A: No, let's do the time machine after we have time machine, we have all the time in the world. Literally. [01:08:25] Speaker C: True. What did you guys think of the scene where Marie and Frank so talking about the scene where Marie and Frank are visiting Robert's apartment. I love the entrance that Ray has into that scene. I like that we see him from the hallway too. Two more women pass by and then he opens or the door opens and it's Marie and he jumps very Ediply and yeah, we mentioned like Frank or somebody mentioned Frank being like, I'm here for the broads. I thought that was funny. Like the contrast between him and Ray of like Ray very, very cagey, very defensive. Frank not giving a fuck. Sandy and Jessica. So the two women who arrive to invite Robert to a party on the 9th floor, they're collecting money for snacks and drinks. Robert gives them a check. [01:09:28] Speaker B: Who gives them a who gives people buying. [01:09:35] Speaker A: The time before Venmo, wasn't that how they did it in Elden times? [01:09:40] Speaker B: They obviously liked him, so I guess they went up for it. But these are hip, young people just use cash. [01:09:45] Speaker C: Why would they continue to like him after he said, I'll go get a check? [01:09:50] Speaker B: I thought he was being like, coy. [01:09:52] Speaker C: I'll go get my checkbook. And then he was going to come out in like a satin robe or something. [01:09:56] Speaker B: Yeah, with like $20, $20 in the string. [01:09:59] Speaker C: Right? [01:09:59] Speaker B: Dude wrote a check for $10 and the memo said snacks. [01:10:05] Speaker A: To be clear, I brought my checkbook for our time travel adventure. Should I not have done that? [01:10:09] Speaker B: Is that not mike, we spent like an hour looking for $20. What the hell? [01:10:14] Speaker C: Had your checkbook the whole time. [01:10:16] Speaker B: You could have written them a check. [01:10:18] Speaker A: Yeah, but. [01:10:23] Speaker B: You know what? We'll go back in time and make it easier on ourselves. [01:10:27] Speaker C: At least it wasn't all our money. But you are going to have to pay me back for that Velveeta money. [01:10:32] Speaker A: So anyway, I thought I would have loved to see the party, to be honest with you. I would have loved to see that party. [01:10:40] Speaker B: I wanted to see Robert dancing the night away with all these people that. [01:10:44] Speaker A: He'S do you think it was actually like a rager party or do you think it was like one of those adult, quote unquote parties where people sit. [01:10:51] Speaker B: Around and we forgot to invite anyone except for Robert? Oh, well, I guess we'll take I. [01:10:56] Speaker C: Think he meant a different sort of adult party. Yeah, where it's like a dinner party. [01:11:02] Speaker A: You have drinks, you walk around, you cheers. There are chartrudery boards. That's a great night. But I don't like it's different from. [01:11:08] Speaker C: I feel like no, because they are still collecting money for snacks and drinks, which seems like a young person. [01:11:16] Speaker B: They're collecting for snacks and drinks, not Gatorade and Power bars. So you know what kind of party it is. [01:11:21] Speaker A: How old do we think Sandy and Michelle are? [01:11:23] Speaker C: Late 20s. [01:11:26] Speaker A: So Robert's easily ten to 15 years older than them. [01:11:30] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:11:30] Speaker B: No. [01:11:31] Speaker A: Okay. [01:11:31] Speaker B: How old is Robert? [01:11:33] Speaker C: Let me find the email. [01:11:35] Speaker A: We have this saved somewhere. [01:11:36] Speaker C: You would think I would like, put it at the top of my notes for reference, but no, I just have to go look at the email and. [01:11:44] Speaker B: Who sent us this email again? I want to give them as much credit as they deserve. [01:11:48] Speaker C: Yeah, let me look at the email sent to us by Stuart Thompson in which he says that Ray's 20th anniversary school reunion based on 1977 graduation. Robert is four years older than Ray, meaning he would have been born in 1973, or he would have graduated in 1970, 318 in 1973. Mike would make him what, in 19 98? [01:12:16] Speaker A: 43 in this episode. Yeah. [01:12:18] Speaker C: Okay, so this is a 43 year old. Maybe they're early thirty s I don't know. But still young. [01:12:24] Speaker B: Age of the actors. [01:12:26] Speaker C: I could well, yeah, but I think. [01:12:29] Speaker A: They'Re intended to be younger, not because they want to say anything creepy, but because they want to look at attractive women. And that's part of it, for one reason or another. [01:12:41] Speaker C: 1963, in 1998 would be 35. So yeah, early to mid 30s. Still younger than Robert. A little more appropriate, though, I think it is a singles community for like, swinging singles. And I got to imagine it's like a. [01:13:01] Speaker A: It said that on the busy side. [01:13:03] Speaker C: That's right, it did. So I got to imagine it's like two peaks. Like younger people, younger people, younger people, middle life, fewer people are single. And then maybe back up as people get divorced. Male nurses. Male nurses, never single. You know, male nurses like to they're. [01:13:21] Speaker A: Always you're right, I stand corrected. [01:13:25] Speaker C: What was the question? Are they younger? How old are these women? [01:13:32] Speaker A: I wanted to know how crazy this party is going to be, and I think we determined that that would be depending on how old they are. [01:13:38] Speaker C: Okay. Well, yeah, I mean, assuming, but I don't know, I mean, I guess older people can still have a down. [01:13:45] Speaker A: You're right. That was wrong of me to imply that. [01:13:47] Speaker C: You're absolutely right. [01:13:49] Speaker A: They can go nuts. [01:13:50] Speaker C: They can go nuts. I liked them flirting with everyone, flirting with Robert, all the women, michelle, Sandy and Jessica. Michelle calling him just to say hi and leaving a voice calling to say hi. Hi. [01:14:05] Speaker A: Play it again. [01:14:06] Speaker C: And then Sandy and Jessica arriving to invite him to the party. And Jessica is know last time the cops came, we figured we'd just invite one. [01:14:17] Speaker B: That was pretty clever. [01:14:18] Speaker A: That was cute. [01:14:19] Speaker C: Robert lit up, by the way, during that scene. He was loving the attention. I thought it was a funny contrast too of Robert at the know, being kind of a grump about the women. Like Michelle always coming over to borrow detergent and he's thinking about cutting her off to force her to buy her own to seeing him embrace the single. [01:14:46] Speaker A: For sure. Yeah, I thought that was great. I deeply love this episode. This was a good one all around. [01:14:55] Speaker B: Yeah, very enjoyable. Ray's going to do awful on the barometer, but as far as the episode itself goes, awesome. [01:15:02] Speaker A: That's fair. [01:15:03] Speaker B: Hey, here's the hot tub time machine. Or rather here's three of them because I guess it came back from different times and it's just here. I guess we could just pick one. [01:15:14] Speaker A: That's not going to cause a rift. [01:15:16] Speaker B: Probably not. [01:15:17] Speaker C: Is it like we have to pick one and one of them is the one from our time and the other two are not and we'll tear a hole in the spacetime continuum? [01:15:27] Speaker B: I think it just means that whichever one we choose, it'll eventually make its way back here at least two more times, if I had to guess. [01:15:35] Speaker C: But with us in it or will we evaporate in? Have we been in it the whole time? [01:15:41] Speaker B: There's only one way to find out. Okay, there might go. He chose the middle. We'll go in the middle one. [01:15:46] Speaker C: Well, should we not just take all three to be safe? [01:15:50] Speaker B: We each get a hot tub time machine. [01:15:52] Speaker C: I mean, three hot tub time machines, three loyal local government servants. I don't know, I feel like we've earned this. [01:16:00] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:16:01] Speaker C: Three for one on lefty. Okay, I'll take the right and Mike takes the middle. Mike Cannonballing into an empty hot tub. Are you all right? In. [01:16:17] Speaker D: 7Ft for Cannonballs, apparently is the recommended amount. [01:16:22] Speaker C: It says that on the bottom of the hot. So as you were falling you saw that rapidly approaching your face. 7ft is the shit. Yeah, like that image. Okay, so it says here that the instructions are if you're in the button well, yes, hit the button. But you need to position yourself. It's not going to work if you don't position yourself over the jets. It just says so that you can flap. [01:16:54] Speaker B: I got it. [01:16:54] Speaker C: Okay, I'm ready to flap. Hold on, wait. As we're stepping into this, the wall is opening up in front of us. And what are these little there's a rubber duck and a little vial of bath. Bubble bath. Okay. [01:17:10] Speaker A: We've got to do a bubble tub. [01:17:13] Speaker C: I guess this is how it works. It's all very magical and mysterious, but we just got to go with it. [01:17:18] Speaker A: Let's do it. [01:17:19] Speaker C: Okay. [01:17:19] Speaker B: Just got to go with it. [01:17:20] Speaker C: Where are you guys going to go, by the way? [01:17:22] Speaker B: I'm going back to this morning so I can set up for Ladies Night. [01:17:26] Speaker C: I think I'm going to go to last night. I really didn't get a good night's sleep, so I kind of want to take that one again. Okay. Mike, where are you going? [01:17:35] Speaker A: I'm going to go bang Meghan Mark. [01:17:37] Speaker B: No, he's not. He's going to go try bang. [01:17:43] Speaker C: I think they call it shagging over there. Mike, I'm sorry. [01:17:46] Speaker A: You're right. I got to know the terminology. [01:17:48] Speaker D: Well, no, she's American. [01:17:50] Speaker C: Okay, well, depending on when you're going back, she might have become acclimated to calling it shagging, but we'll have to see height of suits, bang, post suits. [01:18:02] Speaker B: All right, look, no matter what we do, let's all agree to meet at the town hall this morning at 1030. [01:18:09] Speaker A: Let's go. [01:18:10] Speaker B: Let's go. Oh, hi, guys. How was your minute? Hour, day, year? I don't know how this works. [01:18:20] Speaker A: It went pretty good. I'd say it went pretty good. [01:18:22] Speaker B: Did you bang Meghan Markle? [01:18:25] Speaker A: I did better than that. I got rejected by Meghan Markle, but. [01:18:29] Speaker C: And that's with one T. That is correct. [01:18:33] Speaker A: But I will say there is now only one Ireland. We did it, boys. [01:18:40] Speaker B: Which mike, how long were you gone? [01:18:43] Speaker A: I was gone long enough to set. [01:18:46] Speaker B: Everything right, which well, you do have stubble now, so it's been at least two months. [01:18:51] Speaker D: Yeah. [01:18:51] Speaker C: Which Ireland is it? East. Oh, okay. [01:18:55] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:18:56] Speaker C: They went a third way. [01:18:57] Speaker A: They couldn't decide between republic and north, so we just started over. [01:19:00] Speaker C: We started so the natural midpoint of yeah. [01:19:04] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:19:04] Speaker B: Well, that will never get elaborated on. Adam, how was your time? [01:19:08] Speaker C: It was great. God, I actually lucid dreamed for the first time ever. It was amazing. I dreamt that I was in a hot tub store, and I felt like I was actually there. Walked around and met Jared. It's just incredible. And then I flew and I woke up and I was here. How was your trip back into time, Alex? [01:19:30] Speaker B: Good. I went back to yesterday morning. I set up for ladies night. Ladies Night happened, and then Ladies Night may or may not have happened 26 more times. [01:19:41] Speaker C: Whoa. [01:19:42] Speaker B: And now I'm here. [01:19:44] Speaker A: Yeah. I will say that even though it was several months ago, megan did mention how excited she was to attend Ladies Night. [01:19:53] Speaker B: So I'm glad that mike, you should have been there. You could have been rejected all over again. I guess. You could always go back. [01:20:00] Speaker A: I could do that. I could do that. Yeah. But the rebels wanted another meeting, so I could only make it so much. [01:20:06] Speaker C: And that was one of the things that actually brought them together, right, was finally nailing down a day for Ladies Night for Ireland. [01:20:13] Speaker A: That is correct. That is correct. Yeah. [01:20:15] Speaker C: I know it's Scotland, but I know there was a proposal on the table to call it. [01:20:24] Speaker A: That was that was on the table. But that got given up. We'll do laddie's night some other well. [01:20:30] Speaker C: Because you're going over to Scotland next to work out independence, right? [01:20:33] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, that's the move. That's the move. [01:20:35] Speaker C: Who are you going to shag over there? Shrek. [01:20:39] Speaker A: Shrek is Scottish, I suppose. [01:20:41] Speaker B: Yeah, I guess that's the goal. [01:20:43] Speaker C: Mike Myers. Dad. Yeah, okay. Sorry, Alex. You were saying? I was just going to I'm going to father Shrek. He said. [01:20:54] Speaker B: We found our episode title. [01:21:01] Speaker D: Raymond podcast. [01:21:05] Speaker A: I'm going to take my time machine. [01:21:07] Speaker D: And Father Shrimp buy our shirts. [01:21:11] Speaker C: So, boys, grounded episode. [01:21:15] Speaker D: Nice. [01:21:16] Speaker B: Nice and simple adventure. We got Mike three hot tubs and now we just have to set them up in his room. I think we stack them up one on top of the other. [01:21:27] Speaker A: Triple decker. [01:21:28] Speaker B: Triple decker. [01:21:29] Speaker A: I guess the only thing left to do is the barometer, right? [01:21:32] Speaker B: Yes. So let's turn over to our barometer judges and as they have always been as we do we've never, always been this way. Those three guys at the hot tub store from before, I left a microphone over there. So let's cut in their audio now. [01:21:48] Speaker C: Thanks, Alex. As always, we're so glad to chime in on Everybody Loves Everybody Loves Raymond, as we do every week ever since Ireland was reunified. [01:21:57] Speaker B: Yes, I'm Joey and this is my best friend lover, Garrett Aaron. Debra, as it's always been. [01:22:04] Speaker D: I like my busy. [01:22:05] Speaker B: We stay at the Bussey apartments. [01:22:08] Speaker C: I'm Harry Potter and I'd like to announce of course, just take a moment to announce I'm getting married tomorrow to the love of my life, Prince Harry, who I've been in love with the whole time ever since I touched his philosopher's stone in the Chamber of Secrets. [01:22:25] Speaker B: I think you should get that checked out. [01:22:27] Speaker C: Prisoner of askaban. [01:22:30] Speaker B: That's better. [01:22:32] Speaker C: Ever since the first time I gobleted his fire order of the penis. And I half boned that prince and let me tell you, he was deathly hollow. [01:22:42] Speaker D: Sounds like you guys are going to have a cursed child. Anyway, let's talk about Ray. [01:22:48] Speaker C: Just wanted to take him out. I know we don't talk about our personal lives on the show. Never have, and that's why it's only 35 minutes long, but just wanted to throw that out there. So the barometer, of course, as you know, is our classic rating system, on which we rate raise performance as a husband, brother, son, father, perv picture hanger, all sorts of things with Ten being the bad dads of sitcom history. No, your alternate timeline. [01:23:18] Speaker A: This is going to make things way. [01:23:20] Speaker C: More confusing with ten being the bad dads of sitcom history. Like Tony Soprano or Steve Buscemi from Boardwalk Empire. I guess. I don't know, I've never seen the show. Joey, is there a third one that you can think of? A bad dad? [01:23:37] Speaker B: Your dad voldemort. [01:23:39] Speaker C: Of course, that's right. Always been. And one being the great and one being the great dads of sitcom history, dave Coolier, the dad from Full House and his lovable non related uncle, played by Bob Saget and Steve Urkel, of course, the dad to Carl Winslow on matters of the family. And Garrett, can you give me one more? [01:24:04] Speaker D: The dude from Duck Dynasty. [01:24:07] Speaker C: All of the dudes from Duck Dynasty, honestly. Great guys in this time. [01:24:11] Speaker D: Great dance. [01:24:12] Speaker C: And of course, this show is, as always, sponsored by Duck Dynasty, continuing for its 59th season on an E. So that's the rating scale. How is Ray coming in for you on this episode, Garrett? [01:24:27] Speaker D: All right. I think I'm going to give Ray six for this episode here. On the one hand, he had a hot tub. That brings me up to that's pretty damn good for me. On the other hand, he wasn't too great to his wife. And I know with my you know, it doesn't really go too well when you're ogling another. That's a bad look. So I got to give him a seven. [01:24:52] Speaker C: And you've never gotten in trouble for ogling anyone before, right, Garrett? [01:24:56] Speaker D: I got to ask for one man and one man only, and that's Joey. [01:25:01] Speaker C: And that's why you won Sharks, honey. And that's why you won the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Medal of Honor on the same day. Great. [01:25:11] Speaker D: But, yeah, absolutely I did. Specifically for loving one man and one man only. [01:25:17] Speaker C: Yes, that's right. You won the Medal of all for. [01:25:20] Speaker D: Loving one man and one man only. Anyway, baby, what are you getting? [01:25:26] Speaker C: Yes. Joey, where's Ray coming in for you on this episode? [01:25:30] Speaker B: Ray? What the hell? God, he's an awful liar. I always feel like your spouse is someone you should always be honest with, burying surprise parties or cult memberships. Ray wanted something, knew Deborah wouldn't like it, so lied poorly, probably knowing it would all come crashing down at some point. It would have been better to talk about the core issues and ask about the boundaries of their marriage instead of going about it the way he did. What a real shit job. Seven and a half. [01:25:58] Speaker C: Seven and a half. So he's only two and a half points away from being the worst TV dad of all. [01:26:06] Speaker B: You might say it's a three and a half in an alternate timeline. [01:26:10] Speaker C: We've got a seven and a 7.5 for me, I think Ray's defensiveness and being so non communicative with Deborah, hiding this from Deborah, was a really bad move on his part as a husband. And I want to dock him a little bit for visibly recoiling upon the sight of his mother. That's not a great son move. And, I mean, I'll give him some credit for being a good dad to Ali, adjusting issues and putting up with five golf balls in the toilet. Or five more, anyway. And for being a good brother to Robert after a fashion. And in that last scene where Robert's being very sweet and know, at first, I actually was kind of depressed. And I'm glad that Ray came around to spend time with me. We don't get to spend a lot of time together. And Ray sort of took advantage of that vulnerability. So it's not a full point for that one. But I'm going to give him I feel like seven is a little too harsh. I'm going to give him a 6.5. So what does that average out to Garrett? I'm sorry, what is the median of that? Garrett, which will we take in this? [01:27:25] Speaker D: The median of that will be a seven. [01:27:28] Speaker C: Okay, so the median ray's median score on the barometer this week is seven. All right, back to you, Alex. And remember Duck Dynasty. Sorry, I should have called it that before because I'm British. Duck Dynasty is premiering next week at One Central. And it's always Central time all over the world on A E. Thank you, Hari. [01:27:52] Speaker B: All right, I think we're ready to start wrapping up this week's episode of Everybody Loves Everybody Loves Raymond. Thank you, everyone, for listening. [01:28:03] Speaker C: Alex, can I just one thing? What's up? I didn't have all of this before, but since we got back this morning, I realized I had this huge file folder full of information about the actresses who are in this episode. I feel like I kind of should give them a little overview of the women, at least the named ones who are in this episode. [01:28:26] Speaker B: Throw them in. [01:28:27] Speaker C: Okay. So before we wrap up, I just want to do a classic rundown of the guest stars in this episode. There were seven, count them, seven women in this episode, of which four did not have any lines and are not credited, but three of them are. So we've got Michelle. Michelle's played by Betsy Monroe. Her first role was as stunning woman in Mrs. Doubtfire, which is kind of a misnomer because there's only one stunning woman in that movie, if you ask me, and her name is in the title. She had a late 90s sort of run of sitcom guest star. She was on this, Dharma. And Greg mad about you. And most interesting, she was in a 1997 TV movie called Breast Men which starred David Schwimmer and Chris Cooper as doctors who create breast implants. Not plastic surgeons, doctors who create breast implants. And the tagline to that movie is two young doctors with a dream of making it big. Really big. Which also stars country musician and Julia Roberts husband, ex husband Lyle Levitt. Sorry, husband in this universe. Her last role was in 2001 and she's now a yoga instructor and reiki practitioner. [01:29:39] Speaker B: Yeah, that's awesome. [01:29:40] Speaker C: Janelle parody, who played Sandy, also worked on a lot of sitcoms, 1995 to 2000. Kind of. Her last role was in TV movie called Running Mates where a mustacheless Tom Selleck is a governor running for president. Sort of a welcome to Mooseport sort of thing. Tagline to that movie is see Tom Run. And that movie also stars Robert Culp, who played Deborah's dad Warren on this television program. Interesting about her, her son Tristan is a virtuoso piano prodigy. He is apparently an amazing pianist. And finally, Jessica's last one who's credited in this episode, played by Kelly Rebecca Walsh, who also had a few of these sitcom guest roles. I think she did a Law and Order SVU as well. But one thing that she was in was a TV movie called how to Marry a Billionaire a Christmas Tale. No tagline. Not a lot of roles mid 2000s on, but recently she directed and starred in a short film that had a little festival run. So good for her. We'd love to see it. Those are the women that are credited in this episode. Mike is looking at me with the deadest eyes of anyone I've ever seen. [01:30:53] Speaker A: I'm very sorry, but this is I. [01:30:56] Speaker C: Know in this timeline you hate women. That's the one thing that didn't change. But, yeah, I just wanted to get that in there because these files were really weighing me down. [01:31:12] Speaker A: I appreciate that. [01:31:14] Speaker C: Okay. [01:31:14] Speaker D: All right. [01:31:15] Speaker A: So that'll about wrap us up for this episode of Everybody Loves Everybody Loves Raymond. Please remember to subscribe to us. Wherever you're listening to us, leave us a rate and review if you feel like being nice. And don't forget to subscribe to the. [01:31:31] Speaker C: Barone Zonus link to that in the description below postfund.org. Donate. [01:31:37] Speaker B: We just did welcome to Mooseport on that, so you guys should go listen to that. Yeah, that was a fun movie to talk about. [01:31:44] Speaker C: Welcome. [01:31:44] Speaker B: A lot of thoughts. [01:31:45] Speaker C: Welcome to Mooseport is great. It's sort of like a running mates. [01:31:49] Speaker B: Sort of story in this dimension. Welcome to Mooseport is an excellent movie. Now, if you'll excuse us, we're going to go play around with our time machines a little more. And how do you figure it's all going to end up changing everything back to normal next week? That's just kind of how it goes a long time. [01:32:10] Speaker C: These things have a way of completely resetting and not affecting anything else moving forward. [01:32:15] Speaker B: So forget about this. It's not going to come back later. [01:32:18] Speaker C: The one thing that doesn't change, though, is that you can follow us on Facebook at barone, follow us on Instagram and threads at Barone zone and email us at [email protected] if you have something you want to tell. [01:32:32] Speaker B: So we were eager to hear your thoughts and opinions on us and our voices. [01:32:39] Speaker C: Yes, if you're from Britain, maybe you have a couple of comments on somebody and their performance in this episode, but we won't know unless you tell. [01:32:50] Speaker B: You know what? Blame JK. Rowling. [01:32:51] Speaker C: Blame JK. Simmons. [01:32:53] Speaker A: The most we're going to get angry letters about is East Ireland. That's where we're going to get everybody pissed off. [01:32:59] Speaker C: They didn't email us about the Sunday Bloody Sunday drag. [01:33:04] Speaker D: Yeah, that's a true point, I suppose. [01:33:08] Speaker B: And all that's left to do is our classic sign off. You know it. I know it. Well, you may not know it, but that's okay. And that sign off goes everybody loves Raymond and we love.
