Episode notes
Speaker 2
A lot of wet. Very wet. Um, a few weeks ago, Tony Lodge revealed that she was never allowed to attend a movie marathon because your dear mum wouldn't let you. No. That was for older kids. Yeah.
Speaker 1
She said I could go when I was 18 and then by the time I turned 18, they didn't do them anymore. They stopped doing them when I was around, I reckon 16 or
Speaker 2
around 17 and 11 months.
Speaker 1
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. She picketed to get them turned off. She's like, no, I don't want that. Yeah,
Speaker 2
I made a deal. I could make
Speaker 1
a deal with the devil.
Speaker 2
Yeah, I wrote a check. I can't catch. So this video goes on the socials of me
Speaker 1
saying I had a yeah, not of my mom. She's dead. They didn't have video cameras back then.
Speaker 2
And it's just the one video remaining. Oh, every year I like, remember my mom by watching this old video and it cuts to her going, not until you're 18.
Speaker 1
That's not how she sounded. But how did she sound? Um,
Speaker 2
like a goddess. Yeah,
Speaker 1
I thought you'd have to say ghost. I mean, that's actually. No,
Speaker 2
want to scary movie, it might be me. Anyway, we
Speaker 1
posted about me not being able to. And Paramount
Speaker 2
Plus were like, what a shame. Well, actually didn't say that. I said, Ryan, check your DMS. Yeah. So snuck in. the DMs like a thief in the night. They slid in. And were like we've got this private theater, 40 seats. Yep. How about we do a movie marathon? And we said I believe the technical legal term in the contract was fuck oath.
Speaker 1
So this was a bit of a surprise. Ryan surprised me with the fact that we are having this movie marathon. I'm so excited.
Speaker 2
Now you might've seen on, we posted about the fact we're doing it. So similar to Tony's corporate box, register your details. We're going to call you and you have to answer your phone with enthusiasm and say, I want to spend the night with Tony. Which
Speaker 1
is obviously going to roll off the tongue for everybody because everyone's thinking it. No one's saying it, everyone's thinking it.
Speaker 2
So it'll be you and a plus one so you can come with a friend.
Speaker 1
Yeah, 18 plus though. Yeah, because we
Speaker 2
want to get some there'll be a... Well, okay, well, here's what we're gonna talk
Speaker 1
about. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2
No, I don't know. Like, there might be scary movies.
Speaker 1
Yeah, and we didn't want to be limited by the fact that, you know, if we wanted to watch something that wasn't PJ, you
Speaker 2
know,
Speaker 1
but this is the, this is the hard part. I feel like, is
Speaker 2
what are we going to watch? Yeah.
Speaker 1
In fact, getting the movie marathon happening has been simpler than this part of actually, cause you know, when you're sitting on the couch with your partner and you're scrolling through Paramount Plus, you're like, what do you want to watch? I don't mind. What do you want to watch? I don't mind. What do you want to watch? Oh, you pick, I don't mind. And then you sit there and watch nothing. And you just scroll on your phone.
Speaker 2
Yeah. Yeah. That's been us all weekend. Yeah.
Speaker 1
So we're now talking about what we're going to watch. And it's not just Ryan and I watching Tom Catt's on my couch. It's Ryan and I watching three movies with like 40 people. I've seen them are
Speaker 2
full of tarpets. Yeah. So. Is
Speaker 1
it 40 people bringing a plus one? No. Or 20 people bringing a plus one? The theater has 40 seats,
Speaker 2
I believe.
Speaker 1
So it's like cute. Oh, so we're on the floor. If there's 20 people bringing a plus one, where am I fucking sitting? 19 people bringing a plus one. Thank you. Sophie, you're on the floor. I'm so sorry. Yeah. You can sit on my lap. Sorry, that was inappropriate. That's very inappropriate. Sorry. Sorry. Extremely
Speaker 2
inappropriate. Yeah,
Speaker 1
it was. Yeah. Sorry. So
Speaker 2
I think where we got to, which isn't far, but it was going to be. Classic.
Speaker 1
Girls didn't get far. We got rid of red rock crack. Yeah. Tony's
Speaker 2
movie, Ryan's movie, Tarpa's choice.
Speaker 1
Because we thought it would be like Tony and Ryan podcasters. Did we think that? Oh, I did. So it was like Tony then Ryan. What movie for the and? Well, I think the and could be maybe a snack during the break.
Speaker 2
Right. Okay. Yeah. All food and drink provided by the way.
Speaker 1
Yes. Yeah. Yep. So we'll put on a bit of a spread and some food as well. So. I'm still not 100%.
Speaker 2
I can tell the cot -dalls are still in there. Now I've submitted three movies.
Speaker 1
Cause we've got to get approval. And I've got to find the DVD and
Speaker 2
stuff. Now I've submitted three movies and -
Speaker 1
Isn't that great theater of the mind? Imagining that like the people at Paramount Plus, like, where's this DVD? And they're like going
Speaker 2
through there to find the real, don't they play it off a reel at a cinema still?
Speaker 1
Well, they probably just stream from Paramount Plus onto the screen, isn't it?
Speaker 2
Oh, so one of the people that wins, you need to have it on your phone.
Speaker 1
No, yeah. We need someone to log in and a
Speaker 2
Chromecast. That's
Speaker 1
funny technology gear for you. Thank you.
Speaker 2
Now I submitted... I
Speaker 1
actually, this is a crazy fact about me. I always travel with a Chromecast. I always have one in my suitcase. Okay. In case I... No, in case I... When you need to watch Tomcats,
Speaker 2
you're like, fuck. In
Speaker 1
case I stay in a hotel that doesn't have a smart TV.
Speaker 2
Every TV has a hotel room now. They don't. I've said that around the wrong way. Yeah,
Speaker 1
but that's fine. But they don't. Don't they? No.
Speaker 2
Name a hotel that doesn't have a smart TV.
Speaker 1
I've stayed at the Hyatt in Sydney. They didn't have a smart TV and I had to use my Chromecast.
Speaker 2
Really?
Speaker 1
Yeah. No, it's quite common. Beep out that
Speaker 2
hotel name for defamation. That's
Speaker 1
not defamation. Oh, might not be true though. Like they might have updated. As in like they might have updated since not that I was like. Yeah. But nah, I always travel with one. Always got one in my suitcase.
Speaker 2
What else do you travel with always? Is there anything else that's like a that not everyone else would have as a given? Because they're heading up to Sydney for this. Will you be taking a Chromecast on this trip?
Speaker 1
Well, it's just in my suitcase. Like,
Speaker 2
are we staying in the cinema or are we going home after? Oh,
Speaker 1
I'm staying in the cinema. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2
Settle right in.
Speaker 1
Yes. Um, what do I always travel with? If
Speaker 2
you want to join us, just a word of warning to those coming. Um, lots of photos and chats and food and drinks pre and mid, like between movies, but during the movie, shut the fuck up. And people that joined us and watch Harry Potter in Brisbane.
Speaker 1
Someone left because I told them to be quiet. Yeah. When we went to the cinema and people will
Speaker 2
who were in the cinema will know that that's not just like a
Speaker 1
funny thing they say. Tony
Speaker 2
lit a guy up and he left in shame.
Speaker 1
Yeah.
Speaker 2
Can you shut the fuck up mate? And he goes, I'm sorry. And then he left. Yeah,
Speaker 1
he did. And
Speaker 2
then he DM later and he was really apologizing.
Speaker 1
Yeah, he was I'm so sorry. And I was like, well, I told you to shut up. And you didn't, so. Anyway, Biscoe is so fun. I've submitted - But yeah, so we've got to find the DVDs. Yeah.
Speaker 2
Yep. We also have to think about like, I feel like the mix. Yes. So I just want to tell you the three movies I've submitted for Ryan's Choice. Okay. Because that might impact your choice. Because you know, you got
Speaker 1
to - So Ryan's Choice, Tony's Choice.
Speaker 2
What that end what
Speaker 1
movie is that why I don't even know what happens yeah okay cuz we can't and some of
Speaker 2
my people we
Speaker 1
can't adopt days I
Speaker 2
think so I think there's a straight child so it's Madeline no they are thinking of Madeline. Oh, um,
Speaker 1
I feel like we can't end on a sad one or a scary one. Because I won't be able to sleep. Well, but also watch that scary movie on the plane and I tried to sleep with you in New Zealand.
Speaker 2
Yeah, because you Yeah, because I
Speaker 1
got scared.
Speaker 2
No, I think the reason you tried to sleep in New Zealand is going to shock a brother. Yeah, full of what's that word? We'd had a few Margies. The the drug? Aphrodisiacs That's
Speaker 1
not a drug.
Speaker 2
Oh Before we had the meth But I feel like we can't end on like a psychological political thriller because you don't have the brain space to go, but hang on, wasn't he we've already watched
Speaker 1
two other movies.
Speaker 2
Yeah. So it needs to be pretty light and bright. Agree. Okay. So that's why my movie in the middle is kind of, kind of critical.
Speaker 1
Well, cause you could pick anything as long as the tarpers then pick something light and bright for the end.
Speaker 2
But when I submitted these three movies, I sent them to Sophie's Choice and she goes, ha, these are the most Ryan movies I've ever
Speaker 1
seen. If they all involve a casino, which
Speaker 2
they obviously do. Not always the casino, definitely a Heisty. Heisty.
Speaker 1
Feisty with the Heisty. First
Speaker 2
movie I submitted.
Speaker 1
Hang on. Sorry. Before you say your movies, should we back this in with a trilogy instead and go one to three, fucking smash it in. There
Speaker 2
are a lot of comments that said, Shrek back to back to back surely. Yeah, yeah, and
Speaker 1
I kind of agree. And Shrek one, two and three, they've got those DVDs. I checked. They do? Well, I don't know if it's on the approved list, but it is on Paramount+.
