Speaker: We'll answer it on the show. We'll answer it on the show. Call us now. I'm waiting.
Speaker: Welcome to the...
Speaker: What's the deal? Let me try that again. It's the Down With DP podcast with Robert Dunn and Ron Prendamano in three times.
Speaker: Yo, yo, yo, yo. What is up? This is episode 43 of the Dallas TV podcast with Robert Dunn and Ron Fredamano. And me. Oh my God, me. Yeah.
Speaker: Also, we were talking about this earlier, what I have wrapped around my Diet Coke. Oh, you see. it's i just I just have my iced coffee though. Oh, this is the Central High School Class. Central High School Class of 2005, baby. che che We old as fuck. it's good of crazy it's good It's kind crazy that our 20-year reunion was a year ago.
Speaker: It's kind of crazy that they wanted to do a second one. like Yeah, well, I went i went to it. i wish There was supposed to be one at the homecoming game, and like four fucking people went.
Speaker: Do you think, okay, I feel like that was kind of weird to go to a game of high schoolers. None of us know who they are. Is it just to experience what it feels like to see all the bleachers? Yeah, I guess. I mean, just kind of nostalgia to just to go back. This is where 20 years ago. This is where our lives were. This is what we did. um Plans definitely fell through with the whole thing. I showed up.
Speaker: um Brad, of course, showed up. and My friend Kyle showed up, my friend Teresa showed up. I think I ran into Nicolai later on that evening. A few people showed up, but like, we...
Speaker: Brad, Teresa, Kyle, and myself, we were all part of our ROTC. So we just found the ah ROTC instructor and we're like, oh, we're from class of 2005. And he's like, oh shit. Like, cause we were kind of the class that really helped build the program.
Speaker: And we got just basically got a tour of the r ROTC. So that was cool for us. But nobody showed up. I don't know what happened. I forget why it fell through, but it just fell through. but um it would have been kind of cool to see the people who couldn't make the the reunion in St. Pete.
Speaker: But, um, it's all right. I mean, I'm responsible for planning it in 2035. there you go. Well, I had fun at the first one for sure. Yeah, we had a great time. We had a fantastic time.
Speaker: We actually have a lot of movie talk today, a lot of stuff happening in the movie world. We're going to be getting into some of our segments. We're going to have Ron with sports later. We're going to have a little Robert Rantz segment as well.
Speaker: And ah so, I mean, without further ado, let's get right into it. One of the big things happening right now, Ron, in the movie game is that there is this giant Paramount and Warner Brothers merger that was supposed to happen, but seems have a 14-day delay.
Speaker: Yeah. I don't know if you because I just heard about this today as well, ah that there is some there's some speculation that there could be a monopoly here if if it were to happen, that yeah there might even be some less movies and TV shows made, which I think is crazy, given the fact that this is a movie and television studio. ah you would think more would come out of it. But um yeah, because the industry is in ah in a tight spot right now, just in general.
Speaker: I mean, everyone over here, if you ask if anyone's working, usually the answer is no. most and Most of my friends aren't working. Yeah, either they're... yeah it's It's very depressing. And so this doesn't really add to that. so Actually, the only the only friend that I have in the entertainment industry that I know that has consistent work is the one that does like...
Speaker: She works for the costumes and stuff like that. She does all the wardrobe stuff. She's the only one that's working. Okay. Okay. Everyone else is kind of like, ah yeah you know, verticals are on the rise. I think we spoke about that. Verticals are big. did We did. um But yeah, I don't know how I feel about this. ah So apparently, I'm sorry. Apparently the attorney general of California, Rob Bonta, hailed the judge's ruling as critical first win in our case to ensure this mega merger never sees the light of day.
Speaker: Right. So people are really, I mean, what do you think? I mean, you, you're, you're a working actor in LA. I mean, what do you think of this merger? I don't know, man. I, at this point, I'm just like,
Speaker: It just seems like less opportunities are going to be made, ah you know, merging all these studios. There's only going to be so many things being put into brought up into production. There's only so many things that's going to be shot in Los Angeles. There's only it only so many things that are going to just be made on the much smaller scale to the point where.
Speaker: you know, there are any new faces that are entering the industry are going out for the co-star roles, which are usually roles that are like under five roles that are like the valet guy, the waiter. And they say, how may I take your order to Brad Pitt?
Speaker: Now, funny enough, those roles are so hard to get. Like you might see a movie and the guy says like one thing, but that guy had to fight hundreds of other actors. If you look at movies from like the ninety s the 80s, I mean, how many small one liner roles were there back right You do not see it as much You don't. You really don't.
Speaker: It saves money because they also get a piece of the residuals. Of course, of course it saves money. Sure. But like, I feel for the actor. I feel for the guy who's working. Like you said, that person worked their ass off just to say,
Speaker: You have a telephone call, sir. Like just to work their ass off to do that. And now, now the phone just rings conveniently. Or yeah they have a cell phone, which most likely they Right. Because we have like the same, here's the thing too, is like the, the one above is guest star. So for people who don't know, think of co-star as the guy that says like one or two lines in an episode.
Speaker: Guest star would be like the, the bad guy in law and order. It's the whole episode's about him. He's a guest star. He's not a recurring character. He's just here. He's a big part. And then there's series regular, which is the main characters. the main So now the guest stars are going to named actors, and the co-stars are drying up. So it's a very depressing time, and now that we're now we're having merging studios, less studios are going to be around.
Speaker: It's kind of the dark ages. It reminds me of just Scar at Pride Rock. You know, there's just not enough to go around, and no one really... ah I don't know. No one at the top really seems to care. And, uh, I mean, without even getting into AI shit, like forget the AI.
Speaker: It's like the AI is not even necessary to bring on these dark times. So speaking of a dark, like what about voiceover How's that? I mean, I mean, is that, is that becoming more AI as well? Uh, yeah, there's a, there's a lot of video games now that are doing AI, uh, voices.
Speaker: Um, it's, uh, Yeah, man, I don't know. i know i should just I should just kill all my dreams. Is that what you're saying? No, no. I think that there are... I don't know. I feel like there are lesser games that will probably use AI. I do think... I do i would like to believe some of the top games are going to be, like AAA, are going to be ah using actors for sure. I think animation will always need actors.
Speaker: There's just something, you know, you can't really i mean, before Spongebob was ever made, could you have really Spongebob, you know, or f found the voice of Spongebob through AI? And even if you did, how awesome would have been? Probably pretty lame.
Speaker: Tom Kenny, the voice of Spongebob, know, bring so much life into that character. And I think is the biggest reason why it's why that character is as big as it is. Yeah. So I don't think voiceover, despite the voiceover probably being.
Speaker: attacked the most, ah yeah, I don't think that's gonna go away. I would like to believe that's the case. um Also, when it comes to AI, I do find it funny. I saw a video that kind of touched on this. and it was in the form of a sketch where it was like, ah you know, a guy was playing a producer and he it was like two producers played by the same guy. And he's like, let's make a movie. We're going to do it all AI. It's like, why?
Speaker: Because it's cheaper. Uh, yeah, it's cheaper, but like, why are we doing AI? And also, are you aiming to make sure this AI doesn't look like AI? It's like, yeah, why are you doing that? Because people hate AI.
Speaker: So why are we doing it? Because it's cheaper. But the whole point of the AI is to make it not look AI. So it's like, why not just do it for real? It's a vicious circle.
Speaker: Yeah. keeps going around, around, around, around. Yeah. It's very, very frustrating. But luckily, we do have movies that came out recently, Obsession and Backrooms, which I just saw Obsession. don't know you caught that. I have been told to see Obsession. I have been told multiple times by people. Multiple different people have told me to see it. Yeah. I need to see it. Am I able to stream it now?
Speaker: I believe it's on... Paramount or Peacock? One of the two? i don't know. Let's take a look. Well, I have Paramount. I don't have Peacock. Okay. might You might be lucky. I'm not sure. Let me see. Go ahead.
Speaker: I did get to visit, though, a filming location because, as you know, I love filming locations. It is on Peacock right now. Oh, okay. It's on Peacock. So... Uh, there's a famous scene in Obsession where the main character, the girl, she kind of starts freaking out on a date, and that's been like, you probably heard it in a meme, and um but I got to visit that that location, a place called Little Tony's in North Hollywood. What? And it's really cool.
Speaker: I got I sat right next to the the table itself So that was pretty cool because they did shoot all throughout Burbank and kind of the valley and so that was really cool made for $750,000 under a million made but loads of money outside of that um Here's here's a question though.
Speaker: Go ahead. So talk to me all my other film friends that are listening This is this is my question to you and for Ron So there is one celebrity in that movie, and is Andy Richter.
Speaker: so there is one celebrity ah in that movie and it is andy richter oh The Swedish German. Andy Richter is in it.
Speaker: He has like five lines. That's it. And I just wondered why. Now, is he a friend of the director? is he is ah is this a favor? Or, here's my question, I know that when it comes to indie films, which this was...
Speaker: It is good to have a name in there. A lot, one of the names people like to use a lot is Eric Roberts, Julie Roberts' brother. But he's gotten to a point where he's a bit oversaturated. He's in every indie movie.
Speaker: But I wonder... If having a name, even if it's Andy Richter, who I love Andy Richter, but he wasn't playing like really a comedic character. ah He was just, he was in it.
Speaker: And I wonder if the case was that it would help the movie that to have a celebrity name. do have the answer. i do have the answer. Oh, would love to hear it. AI from Google. Oh, sweet.
Speaker: Speaking of. ah Yeah, right. um This is what AI should be used for as a tool to help you not to do the work. and not to bear you Apparently he was a fan of the script and wanted to be a part of the project.
Speaker: How did he even get the script? Like, why was it even sent to him? You know? don't know. I don't know. Like, that's... That they didn't answer. that That's the thing, like, it's, uh, because you can't just unsolicited, you can't, I assume that wasn't sent unsolicited, it was probably sent to his people who sent it to him, but why would he even sit down and read it? I don't know, maybe he, maybe he likes reading scripts.
Speaker: I don't know, I never met him. I mean, he's a working actor, he reads scripts. is. Yeah, you know that's kind of part of the gig, right? You know agent gets you a script, hey, take a look at this, what do you think, it's an indie film, oh, I love this, yes, I want to do it. Right, right. I'm Andy fucking Richter, I can do what I want, okay.
Speaker: That's true, that's true. um But ah still, amazing movie. ah Let's see, one second. One second. All right.
Speaker: So, yeah. ah
Speaker: So, ah yeah, when it comes to Backrooms, and ah Backrooms was a much higher budget, and it was an A24 movie, but still, you know, in the grand scheme of things, what what was amazing about it was people were watching Backrooms more than the new Star Wars movie that came out.
Speaker: So there's a lot to be said right now for these movies. I loved both of them. I was probably a bigger fan of back rooms, not because I think it's the better movie. It was more my style. Like like the liminal space, but both were so good. And without spoiling anything, obsession have to give a chef's kiss to the ending. Great ending to that movie.
Speaker: They I absolutely i thought the ending was so clever. i thought it was handled perfectly. um So, yeah, we could definitely talk about it again if you're able to see it. Backrooms, is i'm I'm in the streaming game right now. Backroom, I'm not paying twenty dollars to stream the movie. No, no, no.
Speaker: Maybe I'll do a seven. i mean, I have a layover coming up. You know, I can watch but yeah the seven day trial peacock and watch obsession or i'll just read it illegally. One of the two.
Speaker: That's true, because I haven't seen the Odyssey yet. And I haven't either. And it's so hard to get a ticket like yeah i at they're all sold out. Yeah. um Do you have an IMAX? You have an IMAX theater. new Yeah.
Speaker: Yeah. i well, of course I'm in New York. Of course, we have IMAX theaters. There's only like 20 something IMAX theaters in America, right? Oh really? Yeah, there's very- I like two down the street. Yeah, yes so do I. mean um So I mean, he filmed the whole thing in IMAX. What are your thoughts on that?
Speaker: Oh, well, I do love the meme, watch it as Nolan attended, and I have been a stickler for it. I'm like, no, I to split IMAX. I don't know where I got my intel from, but there are 1,800 IMAX theaters in the world. I mean,
Speaker: the same ballpark really ah But I do want to see it at IMAX. Sorry, there's over 400 IMAX theaters in the United States. However, among these, only 25 theaters are equipped to project the movies using true IMAX 70 millimeter film formats. That's where I got the 25. Oh, OK. Which is widget and which just what the Odyssey is filmed in.
Speaker: Right, right. um So I do believe my theater does have ah the 70 millimeter IMAX. um yeah I think the best IMAX theater in town where I'm at is in Universal City, ah which is not too far for me. But...
Speaker: And there's a closer theater. I'll be fine. We have into all this yeah, so I do want to see it But I am I am kind of a stickler for the for watching it in IMAX But I'm telling you like it's been sold out like everything. I'm sorry the front row yeah It's it's it you would never sit the front row never no absolutely no there are two in New York however ones in Lincoln Square Okay, which is New York City and the other ones in fucking Rochester Wow. Those of you that don't know, Rochester is quite far away from New York City. Is that is it are there a lot of Mormons in there?
Speaker: I don't I don't know. I have no idea. Wasn't that the Holy Land for Mormons? I think it may say that started there and ended up in Utah, the Deseret. But I think I think I think I think Joseph Smith and all that. I think the movement did start. in up Yeah. Did it start there? um I love you. Yeah. fancy right now Yeah, because there's a
Speaker: only because there's this in in book of mormon they so i think they say like i that he's from Rochester, New York. I just remember those lyrics. any Any Broadway people, let me know.
Speaker: um ah but Also, one ah one of the things here that we also have, we actually have a few penetrating questions. We're going to do penetrating questions early today. Yeah, you know what? We do it however we want. It's our fucking show. We don't have producers yet. We'll do we do it however we want. Gosh darn it. Let's do it.
Speaker: Let's do it.
Speaker: So we do have a few penetrating questions. It looks like the first one... want me to read it? You want me to read it? Yeah, you read the first one. read the second. I'll read the first one. Sure.
Speaker: ah This is from Trix. This is from Trix. Like the cereal. It's spelled like a cereal. I don't know if she tastes like or he tastes like cereal, but here we go. um This is not from a man, in this question.
Speaker: yeah lastly No. No. Do you guys have kids? If not, do you want... So I feel like this person didn't listen to the last episode of sounds how we about how we ranted about not asking this question. Yeah, I'm okay. As a personal, I'm okay with do you want kids? I'm perfectly acceptable. Right, right. Some people may not be. Um...
Speaker: I, yeah like I said before, I didn't work out for me personally. Right. um Between life. Okay. like ah we take care of my wife's grandma. So that is ah something that kind of got in the way. We've taken care of her for five, six years now.
Speaker: um I win. Jess and I are almost 40. so And she's had medical problems in the past. Like I said, previous episode, that's all I'm going to say on her. not going to get into it. Unless she gives me permission one day to talk about it. But we're not talking.
Speaker: So I wish. Now that we're almost 40, it gets kind of risky for women at and at this age. right No, we don't want kids, okay?
Speaker: We are pretty comfortable with life, okay? Considering you know we do take care of an elderly person. We are pretty comfortable life. So no, I don't want fucking kids. Okay. I don't.
Speaker: Kids are kids are great. Kids are wonderful. My sister just had her third and my little niece. She's fresh. This is all fuck lover. But you know what? My favorite thing about not having kids, Rob and have nieces and nephews. I get to go.
Speaker: Here's your child back. Bye. Bye. It does get exhausting. I'm going to have a fucking pint now. Okay. Fuck off. Yeah, especially in my rant ah about the kid. i don't want to get into it again. oh i will I will be eating the cake. Yeah.
Speaker: Yeah. I mean, the fuck that. I don't want to be that parent that doesn't discipline my kid. Fuck that shit. i I will. No, I'm sorry. i don't want kids. I will be the fun uncle that pays for your college tuition. Okay. I will be that uncle.
Speaker: But i I don't want you in my everyday life. I'm sorry. I also i love the complete contrast to our second question, which is by ah Geeky Chicorita. If you were ever into Pokemon,
Speaker: if you were ever into pokemon Who will be your Pokemon companion? The fact that her name is Geeky Chikarita, and she is asking, well I don't know who this is from. It's probably from a dude.
Speaker: But the fact, she sounds hot. I'm just saying. She's hot. She's asking me about Pokemon, so it's kind of hot. Hey, hey. I was never into Pokemon, really. um I like them. I've always liked Pokemon, but I was never into Pokemon. Who would be my companion?
Speaker: ah I mean, my favorite Pokemon has always been Geodude. He's the rock of the muscle arms. He's always been my fan. But I don't think he would be my companion. Right. like companion would probably be like, sure. It's all.
Speaker: Oh, yeah. I can see that. I get Bulbasaur. Yeah. A little ornery, but, you know, cute at the same time. yeah I wish I knew more about Pokemon, which is funny because I feel like it did miss me. I was absolutely that demographic, but yeah I never got into cards, and I think that's where it really boomed before the video games came out. And so I was already, like, not turned off by it, but I was like, I'm not into card games.
Speaker: And so I kind of... I kind of fell off before it really got started. And I do kind of wish I did. I do wish I had that nostalgia for Pokemon because like ah the games look really fun. Yeah, they look fun. I didn't really play it. um We do have a mutual friend who trades and sells them.
Speaker: the Pokemon cards. It's like a fricking pandemic right now. ah He would, he would know probably everything. I mean, there's so many generations of Pokemon now. It's not like yeah what we did back then, where it was just this one generation and Charizard and hologram was like the best card you could get. Um,
Speaker: Yeah, no, I don't know, actually. Yeah, so, I mean, my answer would probably be pretty lame, because if I say Pikachu, I do feel like it's a bit of a cop-out. um But he is, like... my wife I don't know who my wife should be. It would be Jigglypuff, because she just goes to sleep all the fucking night. That's funny.
Speaker: That's funny. um She looks nothing like Jigglypuff, but I'm saying Jigglypuff Jigglypuff as far as... Yeah, I don't know. i Yeah, probably Pikachu because, you know, he's a detective. Hold on.
Speaker: So, what thank you. that was ah That is our penetrating questions, which, by the way, if you want to send in your penetrating questions. you want to send in your pennetrate If you want to send it in to us hard. All you want to know is go into our Instagram.com bio. Exactly. Talk to the, yeah.
Speaker: down with d exactly thought to that yeah And you just go into our Instagram, everyone. There's going to be a little anonymous link for you to send. Send us a question. answer it on the show.
Speaker: and if you do it, at yeah, I'm getting too turned on continue. We'll answer it on the show. We'll answer it on the show. Call us now. Call us now. Seriously, look at our Instagram. yeah e Email us down with dp at gmail.com. Call me now. Call me now for your free reading. And yeah.
Speaker: There you go. Well, did you, uh, did you actually- Penetrate you. Wait, what? Yeah, penet- Penetrate us. Oh. Did you- Did you happen to see the, uh, the documentary on Miss Cleo? Yeah, I did. I did. I did. Very fast. Really interesting. Very And how little she was, like, involved with it. She was just kind of the face of it. She was. And that was it. It wasn't really- she kind of went down with the ship.
Speaker: Yeah, she did. She did. Um. Yeah, it was interesting seeing how like they basically just follow the format on how to predict things for people. and so what's up i feel for the people because there's so many people looking for hope and for something good in their life and they're calling for a fortune.
Speaker: On a phone. like like the you know it's To me, it's kind of crazy to think that. you know Yeah. I think it was before therapy was like more embraced. Mental health was really pushed. Yeah, exactly. So was like, why not just talk to a magic person? Instead of fixing your own problems. um and And also, Ms. Cleo will take all those phone calls.
Speaker: I mean, that's a lot of work. Yeah. And even as a kid, I knew. I'm like, there's no way this lady's calling. It's like the Peter Popoff Miracle Spring Water. What's it number that? So Peter Popoff was like one of those um preachers on TV kind of thing. he was He was really popular for doing the Miracle Spring water. i actually ordered it one day.
Speaker: i was i was in, it was like my first semester in New York. I was feeling a little down. This was on TV. And I'm like, all right, let me order. Let me see if it makes me feel better. It was just a little packet of water, probably tap water.
Speaker: Excuse me. Is it God's bath water? and supposed to be holy water of some sort. yes supposed to cleanse you and make you feel good. and Right. However, once you buy it, okay, once you buy it, they keep sending you shit.
Speaker: So I'm sure, I'm sure 207 West 85th street in New York is probably still getting shit to that apartment. Okay. That's funny. Um, well, yeah, that's why, uh, I can't, I don't, I feel like that would probably happen to it. Scientology. I do i do kind of I do kind of miss the scams though.
Speaker: I'm, I mean, at least they were real people and not AI, like AI on the ads. Like if you're playing a game or you see it on YouTube, you know, it's a fucking scam. This, right you know, it's a scam, but at least it's people. I don't know. It just seems less. Yeah. And you can't even have fun with scams anymore. Like if I get a text from a scammer, I used to text back and like kind of troll, but now I'm hearing that if you do that, if you give it some engagement, then it just texts you more. so I'm like, yeah well, I don't really want that.
Speaker: So yeah, no, I i just say ah block. no stop. Whatever it takes. I don't want to donate to your fucking campaign. Leave me alone. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I'm tired of you I'm deliberately going to vote for the other guy. So, no i wouldn't go um, but, uh, do you, um,
Speaker: Yeah, because I know, especially when it comes down to, um what am I thinking of? Election season. we Which is a part of that. Yeah, we get a lot of that.
Speaker: But um we're getting we're getting into it, everybody. We're going to get into some cold jokes. I think, believe Ron, how many you have? I have one today, buddy. All right. Well, baby, I got one too. So let's do it one for one. Cold jokes.
Speaker: Dying from your cold jokes. All right, so let's get into it, everyone. Do you want to go first or should I No, want you to go first, Rob. Oh, boy. All right, then let's let's get right into it. This is mine written five minutes before the episode.
Speaker: wrote ten minutes before the episode. Wow. What's your little bitch now? Wait, what? What? Wait, no sense.
Speaker: No sense. All right, here we go. Okay, okay, here we are You know, they say nowadays New York has lost its edge. What I say, it's just that all the racist Italian grandmothers are dead.
Speaker: You son of a bitch. My Italian grandmother's from Brooklyn, you son of a bitch, okay? Hey, oh, then she's definitely racist. She was not racist. She loved my wife. For those of you don't know my wife is African American. She loved my wife.
Speaker: She cared more about her than me, goddammit. Yeah. And maybe I'm just thinking about other people. Well, I mean, i think I think it did help that she was that she's Catholic. So I think that helped little bit. I also joked with them and told them this is kind of racist, but I really don't care. um I told them she was Sicilian.
Speaker: she saw i But no, that didn't work. Oh. No. Yeah. My wife approved that joke before I said it, okay? So don't come at Right, right, right. But let's move on. well you got a joke for me.
Speaker: You got a fun – okay, let's do it. So, everyone, starting September 1st, France will be the first country in the EU to block social media accounts for children 15 and under. So children in France will no longer be able to look at silly cat videos. I guess this is a good thing since they won't have to see all the memes of them losing to England in third place game. Oh! Oh! Air shots fired. pow.
Speaker: Oh, look at look at them. they were They're retreating. Oh, my God. Look at France go. Oh, my God. the They're going to have a revolution. Trust me. No, I'm sure they will. Love their wine and cheese.
Speaker: I mean, I also I also love their wine and cheese. But yeah, guys, that's going to be our cold jokes. And I mean, I that's the cold jokes for today.
Speaker: I mean, I mean, I'm from your cold jokes. I mean, the French, we love their wine and cheese, but you were not willing to pay $8 for a fucking croissant today, were you? No, no. I met up a friend for coffee and already I'm $7 deep into this latte. And I'm like, a croissant too What am i What am I, the 1%?
Speaker: So. It is insane, Alex. Like, I can understand paying $8 for a gluten-free croissant because that takes like a recipe scale and stuff like that. Right, right. But $8 for a fucking croissant is kind of the same.
Speaker: Yeah, I agree. I mean say i think $6 is reasonable. Even that's high. But $8, that better be the best goddamn croissant. I think it was filled with chocolate or something. But so whatever. almond croissants, I love. I love almonds. Same.
Speaker: Those are probably my favorite. But you know what? Speaking of France and everything, I mean, i mean let's – you have an update on sports? Oh, baby, let's go.
Speaker: This is Ron with sports. Yeah, baby, Spain, Spain. have to admit, i called it a few episodes ago. Spain wins the World Cup cup against Argentina. One to nothing. Argentina had you no shots on goal in the first 90 minutes. The game went into extra time.
Speaker: Spain, didn't go into extra time, I'm sorry, but it did have the score to the stoppage time. Spain wins the World Cup. And what's crazy is afterwards, Argentina started fighting with the players.
Speaker: They started fighting with the Spain players. Are they happy for them? No, they were fucking pissed. I mean, and then they turned their backs on them when they were getting the trophy. True... classless act. Such a classless act. I expect more from the reigning World Cup champions. I expect more from a team that is the most unsportsmanlike thing ever.
Speaker: Also, speaking of other things in sports, we still have no idea where LeBron James is going. We have no fucking clue what team he's going to have. Oh, wow. will be leaving LA.
Speaker: I hope he comes Brooklyn. His contract's done. He wants to go somewhere else. I'm hoping he comes, he's probably gonna retire. I'm hoping he comes to Brooklyn just for shits and giggles.
Speaker: Not gonna happen. there go. That's all the main things going on right now. Oh, and Trump, Trump wanted to stand with Spain and they were like, and the FIFA president's like, get the fuck out of here. Come on. Let them have their moment.
Speaker: But what's crazy turn of events with that is now Trump is I know an episode. You thought we'd have an episode without Trump. naha But now he's trying to cut all trade from to Spain. Now he wants to do nothing with Spain.
Speaker: Wow. It's like, is this because you didn't run in the picture, you fucking child? Like, die are you as surprised as me that Trump is even into sports at all? I think he's into um America.
Speaker: I think he's into that. okay Yeah, I'm actually America. He definitely doesn't strike me as someone that would give a shit about the World Cup. no No, I'm just so I don't know. I don't know what the MO is. So ah so it's the video I saw AI where ah after after Spain won, I thought I saw some Argentina players like hug.
Speaker: Spain players. Yeah, you know, that that's true. There was, so you know, a lot of them do play on other clubs together. Okay. yeah You know, in the Premier League or something like that, or La Liga, or La Bundesliga. So, obviously, they're going hug each other, and, you know, they're teammates, they're friends, they're happy. Right. But then you get some of these players that are just fucking dicks. It's like, why are you fighting with, you lost, okay, second place is the first loser, sure, but you're also second place in the world after being top of the world last year.
Speaker: There is no shame in second place. so Right. stop being a dick, bro. Or as Jerry Seinfeld says, I mean, you're you're the you're you're you're the top of the losers, you know, silver medal. Because bronze, it's like, yeah at least I got something. But silver, it's like, you're the best of the losers. But I mean, the World Cup is such a challenge. But i know, I'm only kidding. It's it's such kick a huge competition. it's been going around since 1930. Only eight teams have ever won. This is Spain's second. Spain first won it in 2010.
Speaker: So, kind of funny though, when i when they won in 2010, wasn't working, but I was at the Winston-Salem area. I was in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, at their little airport, watching ah the World Cup.
Speaker: And when Spain won again, i was at work, I was on a delay, watching the World Cup. So... Yeah. I think it's me in an airport. you're Spain's to win the World Cup. I'm just saying.
Speaker: I'm just saying. i Both times. Yeah. ah did I did call it, though. I did call it a couple episodes ago. i think Spain's going win. Well, you should have bet on it. I don't bet like that.
Speaker: You don't gamble excessively? No, I don't. I don't, Robert. Oh, I do. i Dude, I gamble. I gamble. I do. Like, I'm in a 13-run pool right now. but um I gamble my life.
Speaker: For those you that don't know what a 13-run pool is, it's a baseball pool where the first team to score 0 through 13, they have one game, they have to get 0, one game, they have to get 1, one game, they have to 2, all way up until 13, and then you win money.
Speaker: Oh, i that sounds fun. I win like a few grand, so yeah. Let's quit our jobs. i but we should We should start gambling instead of working. ah Some people do, and I have some friends that do place a lot of bets and do quite well, and this is how they make a lot of decent money.
Speaker: okay I don't think it's enough for them to leave their day job, but it's enough to pay some bills or have some extra cash. That's cool. I'm going to take on gambling. And I know it's a gamble, but that's kind of part of the point. But no, I'm i'm definitely i'm definitely not going to do that.
Speaker: definitely not doing that. Robert, are you upset? Always. Are you upset? Why are you upset, buddy? Are you going rant? You know me. Oh, Robert, here we go. No.
Speaker: All right. I do have some ranting to do today. Something that happened to me. Uh, uh, this was actually just a thought that came in, uh, not too long ago, and it's about pointless meetings. And I'm not talking about I'm not talking about like this could have been an email. I mean, like this is kind of going to be leaning into the industry. So bear with me.
Speaker: But I remember I ah a while back when I was trying to get a rep, I met with someone who was a manager and really wanted to sign with them.
Speaker: And she was great, but she she gave me the runaround. I mean, maybe she was telling the truth, but she was like, Uh, my roster is really full. i already have a lot of actors. i'm like, sure.
Speaker: All right. And but then because i didn't want to lose it, I said, well, hey, there's other managers on your team. Are they are their rosters full? You know, are they all looking for her? And she's like, well, I think one of them, I don't know, I'd have to talk to her.
Speaker: And I'm like, cool, let me know. And then she then this other person who I've never met, the other manager emails me and says, yeah, let's meet up for coffee. And so i was like, great. And so we did.
Speaker: I drove over there. I met up for coffee. We had a conversation. I didn't show her any of my acting materials. We just talked. It wasn't like, oh, here's what I've done. Here's my resume. It was it was like any of your acting materials. So right, right. Not show her your dick.
Speaker: Right. I didn't show. I definitely which now i regret I should have done that. um See, all your acting material. Maybe she she could have been the Harley Weinstein of ah the industry. Maybe. It's only and in a bizarro world, in a multiverse. um But anyway, we just chit-chatted. And then near the end, ah I asked her, you know like so what are you thinking about representation?
Speaker: Immediately, She's like, no, I'm actually not not really interested. And so my i'm part of the live meeting, why are we here? point idic Here's the thing. If you wanted to have a meeting where you want to talk about my materials, you want to know my my resume, you want to see if I am someone that would fit.
Speaker: Cool. But this decision was made before we even met up for coffee. I also want to know why are you wasting your time? Why are you wasting your time? Because a lot of times you hear like if you get a meeting like, hey, man, they want to take the meeting with you if it was a waste of their time. Time is money. So when shit like this happens, I'm like, why did you meet up at all?
Speaker: Why? What was the whole point? Did you feel bad for me? Like you never met me before there. Why the fuck do you care? Tell me. no I'd rather you email me like, no, even me, not interested.
Speaker: So. As a flight attendant, I'm in hotels all the time. And you this is just you get over I love hotels. You get over it real. Yeah.
Speaker: yeah Have you ever been with a job where you had to go to a convention for work? For work? No. OK. OK. So. you know, I'm on my layover. it's so I have a 24 hour layover, let's say, in Vancouver, which I go to a lot.
Speaker: move And there's a convention there for some tech company or whatever. And everybody's there. Like, I feel like they're putting it on so hard to be so fucking happy.
Speaker: And I know all these meetings are pointless. They have because these people act like they're changing the world. And it's like, you're probably not. and you'll probably be fired next week.
Speaker: It's like you're working your ass off of people, you know, that ah don't give a fuck about. Right, right. I feel like these are kind of pointless as well. I mean, that's a team building thing. Yeah, whatever. Fuck off. Yeah. For those of you who are just listening, I did little jack off sign.
Speaker: So yeah, fuck them. I mean, just to drag you out there, just to talk and then just to be like, absolutely pointless. Waste of fucking time. Right. I could have done something better with mine.
Speaker: Well, I guess it all depends because um I met up with ah friends of my girlfriend, this couple, and he is a doctor. So he was at this like medical convention at this really nice. i don't know if I'd call it a resort. Maybe it was a resort, but it was a very nice, huge like hotel establishment where they're having it.
Speaker: And ah I think they had a fly in or was it a long drive? I forget. I think they might have had a fly in. So they're getting like kind of a mini vacation. He has to listen to someone speak for an hour or so.
Speaker: And then it's they're off to the races. So they're doing shit. We went to the beach. You know, we met up with them. They have the hotel stay paid for. Everything is accommodated. So I'm like, there are some that i get there could be some perks.
Speaker: But there are days where there's like meetings every day and stuff like that. yeah yeah. I will tell you this, based on my observations as somebody who's just there to kill time between my next flight. They get drunk.
Speaker: Oh, I bet. Oh my God, do they let loose? Oh, I'm sure. These conventions, holy shit. Yeah. nale yeah It is insane. Right. And they get flirtatious and stupid.
Speaker: They do. Uh-huh. Just saying. It's like Christmas parties. If you work in a restaurant, there's always like, no, not speaking up no nothing is that intense. no nothing Yeah. Yeah. There's always hard co-workers hooking up. You do see them flirting and stuff like that.
Speaker: I have been flirted with. Yes. Yes. I forget his name. His name is Robert. Cause we're coworkers on this podcast. I will never call you a coworker. You are equal to me.
Speaker: You are not a coworker. You are a co-founder. Hey, that's cool. Um, you are a peer. Peer, right? that's That's good, right? that's a good yeah Equal. Yeah, people who work together are peers, yes. that's Okay, cool. You are an employee, yes.
Speaker: Yes. but usually I think it's usually on equal level up here. Yeah. um I think I'm going to take paid leave as well for a little bit, Ron, if that's cool. Yeah, sure, sure. i Yeah, 100% paid leave. Sure, buddy. Cool. but um but We'll take it out of the budget. Okay.
Speaker: So yeah, I got a Down With DP podcast credit card. So if you see me with like- We are in the red on this podcast, aren't we? Yeah, yeah, we are. This isn't entirely free, people, okay? We do pay for some shit, okay? Oh yeah, this is not a free, in fact, ah yeah. So anything helps, but um but don't worry. We're poor.
Speaker: We got that Amex Platinum. 1-900-Down With podcast. down with tp podcast Wouldn't you pay? Wouldn't you pay for us to penetrate you? For only $7 minute. You can talk to Ron. For only $7.95, you can talk to me in this sulky voice.
Speaker: Ooh, I love sulky. And then maybe I'll have a cigarette when I'm done. When I'm done, specifically. When you're done, let me know and I'll light up, baby.
Speaker: There you go. Oh, man. Cigarettes after sex, that still thing, right? Did you ever smoke? Did you ever smoke? I never smoked, and I'm very much an anti-smoke person. smoked for 10 years.
Speaker: You did? i did. i was I had no idea. um i started smoking. i My first cigarette was from Chris Piazza. I was 17 years old. That's son of a bitch. And I just wanted to try a cigarette. i just wanted to have a little bit of a cigarette. If he comes on the show, we got to talk to him about Pokemon and send cigarettes. And he was like, and then I was working overnights at Dunkin' Donuts on nineteen That'll give you an addiction. oh Well, i I would get stressed and I'd have a cigarette every time. Yeah.
Speaker: So part of the reason why I started smoking was at one o'clock, we'd all go out for a smoke break. Because, you know, they that we called it a window, a window of op opportunity. So you got a window. Yeah, let's go.
Speaker: So we, you know, the donuts, we we actually baked on premises. So the donuts or the croissants, the bagels would be done baking or whatever. And they'd have a minute. We all go out i have a couple of cigarettes together. But because I didn't smoke, somebody came down around the drive-thru.
Speaker: Ron, can you get the drive-thru? I'm smoking. Ron, can you get the drive-thru? I'm like, well, two can play this game, motherfuckers. Yeah, I'm smoking now. Can you get the drive-thru? I'm smoking. I'm going outsmoke you.
Speaker: That's basically what happened. Yeah, so 10 years later, i was smoking. I did quit for a year when I was ah first started dating Jess. cause she if she said ah if i That's when he started working at Krispy Kreme.
Speaker: Absolutely not. So it was a little bit easier. No, no. she She actually told me if I knew you smoked when I first started dating you, I would have never have dated you. So she was already invested to me when she found it. Yeah, that would be a deal breaker. for Yeah, it was a deal breaker. ah Luckily, ah she looked past it and I smoked for about I quit for a year and then I ran into some old acting school buddies, had a cigarette. And yeah, how do I imagine them like actors in New York. smoking, obviously turtlenecks, burgundy. ah Yes, they would wear turtlenecks sometimes. It was summertime, so no, not at this time. What's your method of acting? Yeah, i my that was kind sometimes, yeah.
Speaker: Don't even get me started on acting. ah Like, um what do you call it? Acting. I just said it. ah Acting techniques or whatever. magnets Methods. We can get into that sometime. with These two friends that I did work with were very talented actors. i yeah one of One of them is an actor out in California.
Speaker: the r or maybe i'll Maybe I'll meet up with him since he'll be in Burbank. Yeah. The other one is I don't. He got really sick years ago and he stopped. He lives in Jersey, I think. I don't know if he acts anymore, um but they were very talented.
Speaker: Cool. Cool. Very talented. But, you know, the method acting. Did you ever see that video with Don Rickles about with Robert De Niro? They're filming Casino, I think it is. and i think I know what you're about to say. And Don Rickles is like, you know, ah trolling Robert De Niro. He's like, oh, yeah, yeah you with the method acting and the breathing and the bullshit. yeah Yeah. Let's do the fucking line and get out of here. Let's go. Right, right, right. Didn't he like forget a line or something? Yeah, he fucked up a line. and Like how much are they paying you? Don. Yeah. How much are they paying you? The breathing and the bullshit.
Speaker: Yeah. So funny. So funny. Don Rickles, one of my favorite. committee Yeah. I say RIP Don Rickles. But, you know, ah we just had a a happy birthday. Speaking of RIP to the greats. um Yeah. Whose birthday was it yesterday, Robert? It Robin Williams. July 21st. Robin rob you oh I don't know. He would have been 75.
Speaker: Wow. That's crazy. five so Yeah, it is crazy to think Robin Williams would have been 75. I mean, 75-year-old Robin Williams probably would have been awesome. Yeah. Did you see a Pan Oswald on a podcast talking about how he kind of became friends with Robin Williams?
Speaker: I just saw it recently. So it's just like I did. I don't think and he would like meet up at this comic book shop on Wednesdays because I guess Robin Williams, by the way, clearly a huge nerd.
Speaker: Oh, 100 percent. Huge nerd in the comics. His name is Zelda. His Zelda. Video gamer. um Yeah, I know. I love that. That's also what's sad is that I know you're not a big Zelda guy, but yeah I'm a huge Zelda fan and and they're remaking Ocarina of Time.
Speaker: And I just know Robin Williams would be slap happy for it. did He did do something for Zelda, I think, years ago. Yeah, it was his daughter. then Both of them did like a commercial together for Nintendo or something. um Yeah, it was really cute. But um yeah, he was talking about how he would meet them. And this is what's really... ah this is such a This is so Robin Williams, too. I love this. um Robin Williams heard that Patton Oswalt, he was doing his like Comedians of Comedy tour. OK, and he was i forgot where he was having it, but ah he got word that Robin Williams was coming to the show or he wanted to go. And he's like, well, where is he? Like, bring him in. He's like, oh, he actually wants to buy a ticket.
Speaker: He's waiting in line. And he's talking with people. And he he wanted to go the normal way. He didn't want the VIP treatment. The guy waited in line to buy a ticket. He was talking with people. And then, um and then ah yeah, he watched the show. And ah you obviously he said hi to him afterward. But he didn't really want any of that VIP. like It was about – also, yeah, and one of the things he says was like he didn't ask to do like five minutes. He he didn't do any of that shit. he respected that. That was their work. I'm not going to do any of my material. It's your show.
Speaker: Which by the way, you know, everyone would fucking lose their minds if that happened. Um, which I have a personal Robert Williams story to tell after this. Um, so or but no, no, you haven't heard this one. I haven't heard this one. Oh yeah. Yeah. This is actually through someone else. So not technically my experience, but, um, ti yeah. So I'm going to skip it. Forget it. No. Um, but, uh, and then he just kind of kept in touch with them. Just, uh, like just all around great person. But my story was, uh, I had a friend, uh, who, um,
Speaker: went to an improv show and ah like, not not like a not like a big show. I think it was just like, know, don't know, typical, some class somewhere. don't if it was Groundlings or not. I don't think it was Groundlings. But anyway, long story short, Robin Williams was there and he gets on stage. None of the actors knew this was going to happen. So imagine you are striving in the world of improv and out of fucking nowhere, out left field, Robin Williams hops on stage. Shit. I mean, what do you do? you just... You do you. You...
Speaker: You do an eclectic dance. You do Fosse, Fosse, Fosse. You do Arthur Graham, Michael Cade, Michael Cade, or Madonna, mado Madonna, on Madonna, Madonna. You keep it all inside. Keep it all inside. um no you eat And spinit out your gum. you too up Chewing helps me think. just just you good um You do, ah you do you you yeah you work. You do your improv. You do you. you Yeah. you You get to not only are you in awe of one of the greats, but you are working with one of the greats in improv.
Speaker: Yeah. So you do it. So yeah enjoy it. fucking Yeah. and And not like I mean, i not to ah the only thing I could think of is like I've told this story a million times, so i'm not going to go into it. But doing the improv with Sandler, ah I think I just had to turn that part off.
Speaker: So if Robin Williams hopped on stage and I was on stage, I think I would turn off in my brain that this is Robin Williams, the great, the guy. It would just be, oh, shit, Robin Williams is here. All right, whatever. Let's have fun. I mean, you know, I've done it. And then after freak out. I would be so happy because he's going to give me so much shit to fucking play with. Yeah. you follow the simple rule of yes and. Yes and. Which can be broken, but we're going go there now.
Speaker: Yes, it can. It can be. And relations. But and but you you just go, you you go, you play, you have fun. He's going to give you so much material is going to make you look fucking amazing. And that's what you want. That's right.
Speaker: Absolutely. So, ah yeah, ah just I just love that story from Pat Oswald. It was so great. um And then. ah Yeah. And then ah it looks like ah in ah in a very an unfortunate turn of events, Ron and i are literally going to be in the same city at different times. Yeah. So I'm going to Comic-Con. So anyone, ah if you're going to be at San Diego Comic-Con, I mean, by the time you hear this episode, going be over. So never mind. But um Ron is going to be in Burbank specifically while I'm in San Diego. And then when I'm back, he's going to be in San Diego.
Speaker: So it's like the universe, man. It's the fucking universe, man, telling us that we can't have fun. We can't fucking be together. I'm going to go hang out with Jordan. Is that OK? Yeah, sure. She would love that, honestly. Absolutely not. Yeah, yeah, no, yeah, yeah.
Speaker: Yeah, no, so she would love that. ah I'm sure. um I might see we're talking a little bit. Our boy, Brad, he might be in Burbank for a little bit.
Speaker: Where? A day. I think the next week. Next week. Motherfucker. um Yeah, I haven't heard. He hasn't told me about this. Son of a bitch.
Speaker: You son of a bitch. He's at least flying into Burbank because he's not staying in Burbank. So it's one of those things where like if you can kind of deal. so Yeah. i Yeah. It's maybe you'll meet up for an $8 croissant.
Speaker: Oh, I would love for him to treat me to that. yeah Yeah. um ah Yeah. He's probably going out there for work. He is, he is. I didn't know how ah how um how much personal stuff. He's getting spinal surgery, guys. and No, he's not.
Speaker: Doesn't look good. ah God forbid. ah yeah Yeah. But ah yeah, Comic-Con, I mean, you're going to Comic-Con. You go every year, right? Yes, I go every year. are you excited about this Comic-Con? I am. So the thing with Comic-Con, you might think, because the question I get asked a lot when I mention it is like, oh, what are you excited for there? Like, what's the big thing? And honestly, man, I don't go there for any announcements. I don't really go there.
Speaker: to try to get into Hall H, which by the way, for those who don't know, Hall H is the big announcement. are like Oh, that's the one where Robert De Niro, not Robert De Niro, Robert Downey Jr. Yeah. here but Okay.
Speaker: Yeah, as Dr. Doom, which by the way, Robert De Niro as Dr. Doom. Holy shit, that's amazing casting. Thank you. I'm not even joking. That's fucking amazing.
Speaker: Holy, I would love that. Wow, they really missed the mark there. Yep, there you go. at me. Yeah. Fantastic. Yeah. Those are the only jobs available in Hollywood as casting directors. I know. I know.
Speaker: Right. I feel like um I feel like ah he would he would like get hit by Thor by Thor's hammer and to be like, all right, that was good. That was good. That was good. That was good. That was good.
Speaker: But did you see the trailer for Doomsday? No, I have not yet. no oh it looks ah It looks fun. It looks fun. it looks ah I'm not really sure of what Dr. Doom's powers are. I just know he's powerful.
Speaker: But it seems to be... ah i feel like he's one of those guys like Superman where his powers are always changing and shit. so I'm not a big comic book fan and I've always been more into DC than me. Oh, Robin Williams would hate you.
Speaker: That's fine. How does that feel? would never say Robin Williams would hate you. Oh my God. Robin Williams would hate Ron Prendamano. No, he he would hate my father. You're absolutely right. He would hate my father. Absolutely. um No, God, don't ever say that again. No, he would love you. He would love you. would love me. I hope so.
Speaker: Can you imagine me and the guy that is hated by Robin Williams? Yeah. people that don't sure there are well i mean you know he didn't we've talked about this before that he didn't steal jokes but if he heard something good his agent or manager would go pay them to take yeah legally i also hear that's a very ah innocent common thing that can happen between comics yes it is especially if you're hanging out at clubs all the time you're hearing jokes and you could very well accidentally genuinely write a joke that's very similar to someone else and it happens It happened in the event that I ever write a joke that is identical or too similar. You're always going similarities. I've heard people say jokes and like yeah that's kind of like that. joke Yeah, you have that joke about airline food, which is so good. And like, what is the deal with it? Like, I love it. I don't know where you got that joke, but it's it's good. I don't do an airline.
Speaker: Oh, OK, never mind. I guess I'll do it. Then I'll get my. own But in the event that I that ever happened, I would strike it from my set. I would be like, no, never again. Or I would modify it to make it sound like, you know, something that that it is more my own than potential steal. And yeah it it happens. It does. and it i mean Because, yeah, because I mean, how many jokes are there about dating? You know, it's like so. ah With all the polyamorous relationships, a lot more now.
Speaker: Yeah, lot more. Yeah. So because you told me Robert Williams isn't doesn't like me. um i kind of I kind of want to drink now, Robert. Oh, okay. Well, yeah can I, can I do that now? can That's actually good timing because we're going to get into the segment, the final segment of the, of the show. And that's going to be.
Speaker: That is interesting. If you could see on the video, everyone, he's Ron's being very spooky. that was kind of cool, though. I typed it with with the music. That was kind of i was so dad was cool.
Speaker: Today we are drinking from the Blake's Hard Cider Company, the Triple Jam. It is strawberry, blackberry, and raspberry flavored hard cider.
Speaker: Wow. Jams on there. This, inspired by the juicy berries we grow on our farm each summer, triple jam is the perfect balance of ripe sweetness with bold fruit aromatics. Let's see. The apples are, let's see, canned by Blake's Hard Cider in Armanda, Michigan.
Speaker: Wolcott, New York and Redmond, Oregon. So kind of apples from all over the place. Let's um i let get into it. I do have another cider from them I'll feature next week. Cool.
Speaker: Let me know if it's triple or just double jam. The berries hit you right in the face. Let's take a look at the color here. oh, I want it to look like, oh, I want to have that grape look. Yeah, it does. It looks like it looks like a sour, but I don't think it is.
Speaker: Who knows? You smell the cider. You smell the berries. Prost. All right. Let me know if it really is triple jam or if it's single jam. Ooh. Ooh. Ooh. It's fruity-licious, isn't it?
Speaker: So when you first taste it, you get the cider. But then the jam kind of – it's like the jam flavors are sitting on my tongue right now. ahhu Like it hits you and then it just kind of stays there. Like we we live here.
