Transcript

Speaker: What up Checkerheads, CheckeredRob here. We were supposed to have our fourth year anniversary episode released today, but we decided to take a break in May instead to release some of our back episodes.

Speaker: In the meantime, check out some of our episodes from the archives. This particular episode for today will be a compilation. ah This is the Jigsconiverse.

Speaker: So if you are new to Checkered Past or even if you're a long time listener, I have stitched together the entire adventures of Jigsca, Skabaduke, and Skabayaga all in one place.

Speaker: So you can listen to it in one shot. it Might be a bit of an undertaking and maybe a weird listen. And if you're here for the ska, I'm sorry. This is gonna be a wake up call for you in terms of all the bits we do.

Speaker: But otherwise, settle in for the Jigsconiverse.

Speaker: but but

Speaker: It's another trombonist episode. It's just Slim, Joey, and a plastic pumpkin-shaped bucket full of screams as we hallow your weens and chow down on deviled nights.

There's a lot of air. feel like our voices have more reverb yeah because there's less dead space in between us. um So Rob died. it doesn't. But we don't know where he is. He's just, yeah, we're not sure. He's not here. and it doesn't matter. ah And we don't care. Based on his Twitter activity earlier in the month, I would assume he's been captured by some sort of serial killer. but Yeah, it seems like something's happening. Lately, I don't know. I'm not sure. But a few weeks ago, sure. In the earlier part of the month, it was very clear. yeah And then things got wishy-washy. It seemed maybe it was hard to keep up

Speaker: Yeah. But either way. what he was What they were doing? I don't know what was going on with that. ah But either way, ah we're going pick it up where we left off. Pick it up. Yeah, I got the song here. Oh.

Speaker: Pick it up. Pick it up. Pick it up. up. Pick it Where we left off. What have you been up to, Celine? I don't know. This is dumb because we like live together and it's like, what are you up to? It's like, I don't know. You know. You know that you all know all this stuff.

Speaker: Yeah. um Yeah, we ended up with a third dog, a little ska checkered dog. um it was a bit It's a very long story, but he's little sweet baby. We don't know if he's staying, but... But he's very cute. Very cute. you follow us on social him. saw the band Starcrawler had a good Halloween dressed as a Jawa, and you played shows.

Speaker: We've left it off. we've Oh. We've left it off. We've picked it up. yeah What's going on? Something feels eerie. Who's that? oh my god. this what I have come. Deep and disturbing voice. yeah To interrupt this charade.

Speaker: Oh, we actually, you can't say interrupt. It's a bit of a sore word around these parts. Yeah, don't give a shit. Whoa! Coming in hot. The air definitely got cold. Yeah, who is this? The air is cold. I am Jigska.

Speaker: Oh, whoa. I have no idea who that is. I thought said you were following the social media. Yeah, you were following. I took over Rob's Twitter feed and got very bored. Oh, okay. I think you just started tweets pretending to tweet like Rob at some point.

Speaker: ah Yeah. mean That's so much easier. but yeah pretending but and Being me and not pretending to be me. And ain't that the truth? Isn't it hard? We're all just pretend. Stop so conversational with me as serial killers here.

Speaker: I have Rob captured. Oh, no. Oh, I miss my brother. Hey, don't hurt my brother. No, I will hurt him. Oh, no. That seems like a bummer. He's currently on a Catherine wheel right now. Which one's a Catherine wheel? Catherine wheel's like like a big wheel. The stretchy thing? No, that's like a wheel that break people's bones on. Whoa. Why Catherine? Yeah.

Speaker: if I don't know. That's what it's called. Why Selene? Oh, why Jigsca? It's called a Selene wheel if sense better. Okay, it does. All right. He's chopped his Selene wheel.

Speaker: Came down here. Bunch of people doing shit podcasting. Yeah, we couldn't even hear anything. Headphones and all. If you want to, oh, yeah, that makes sense. So I picked up these headphones. I think they're Rob's. They smell terrible. So what's what's happening with Rob right now?

Speaker: You can get him out. Okay. The key and the location, but you have to play a series of games. Would you like to play a little game? No. Is there an option? I have to. I mean, if you want to save Rob, there's no other option. So do you know Rob? but like Yeah, I know him. I know him from passing. yeah have you Did you like commiserate on the games? Because notoriously they they do... Ah, but torture. You probably like torture.

Speaker: You'll find that the torture is not just Rob, but usually... Yeah, I'm sure. This is revenge against the Biquette family. there lore? Yeah. i to know I'm just thinking.

Most of the dudes, they're usually dudes that I end up in my cavern. They they die. no They're not really good friends.

Speaker: The ones that escape, they don't come back. You're really dropping a lot of info for me to put together your backstory here. i Don't worry about it. oh You'll never find me. oh I don't care. What you don't realize is that you'll never find me. You're right there.

Speaker: but Yeah, but, I mean, you'll never catch me. Oh. I caught you. Run really fast. Do you know that this is really me and not some elaborate puppet? well I don't know that. Makes you think. I don't know that.

Speaker: Okay. You have to guess the bands on the top 21, so there's a lot. Okay. But the first one to three wrong answers gets kicked out. Joey, you're keeping score.

Speaker: Oh, yeah. just Just because I'm here doesn't mean you're not keeping score, goddammit. You just wrote an intro, Joey. What are you talking about? You did in the canon of this show. Oh, yeah. What was the rest of the episode that you had ready to go? Yeah.

Speaker: i don't I don't even know. We were just going to wing it. We were just going to start pulling up YouTube. We're going to react to YouTube videos of reactions to Ska songs. Oh. Oh, that's fun, actually. You should save that for a future show. Yeah, write that down. Write that down.

Speaker: Okay. And because it's your torture, it starts with Joey. Oh, yeah. it's actually worse to go second. Is it actually worse to go second? Yeah. Of course it is.

Speaker: Because I'm going to pick the number one right away. Okay. Let's hear it. Let's hear it. Right. They fight for the right. Corn. Corn's number one. Yeah. yeah For like the most popular? No, just Top 21. Kerrang! Just decided in the Top 21. Like, just random, just this one... New metal band. Kerrang! But it's just Slipknot. Yeah, of course.

Speaker: Saliva. Saliva's not on the list. Can you fucking believe it? Tick, tick, boom. Click, click, boom. Whoops. Oh, shit. Is Disturbed on the list? ah Is Disturbed on the list? For sure.

Speaker: Yeah, Mudvayne's on the list. Where are they? There they are. Number 12. Cool. Nicely done. What do you like about Mudvayne? The masks. ah They dropped the mask thing after bit, didn't they? Did I don't know.

Speaker: I don't know. Masks is like a new metal thing. actually was never really into them, but it's cool because they kind of like proggy as far as most... New metal bands went? i mean. Yeah, they were still like groovy. what's it What's up? Well, I'm just trying to think. So I have a bunch of bands like in rolling around my head and I'm like, I don't know if they're new metal like Godsmack and Deftones.

Speaker: are you going to pick one? That sounds like two options. Godsmack. Godsmack is not on the list, but that is wild. and ah i don't know. That's more like post-crunch. Yeah. That's why I'm like, I don't think it's quite new metal. All right. So you each got an an X. Yeah.

Speaker: Um, boop, boop, boop, boop. Trying to think. I'm not going to Orgy. Oh, no, but that's a good one. No worries. They're kind of one-hit wonder. Is Power Man 5000 a new metal band?

Speaker: Are you going to guess it? yeah you that Is that your guess? No, they're not on the list. They're not. They're not? They're kind of like industrial. It's just water. It's like, oh, what's going on? They didn't really rap, though. Oh, yeah, rapping. I need to get back into rapping. You had to think of rapping. That's a big part. That's like it saliva. Man, was like, fuck, saliva? They wrap disturbed and rap. didn't rap.

Speaker: It kind of did. It went wah-ah-ah. That's like a rap. Evanescence. That's my guess. There's no rap in that. I did see a list where they were on there, but no, Evanescence is not on the list. Man, Joey, you got knocked out.

Speaker: That puts me out. How'd that fucking happen? It's not so easy to go first. you want to try? try Yeah. can't you're getting this right. Rapping. raping raping raping Rapping. Rapping. christmas rap birthdays I just like blanking. You've missed like so many. It's really funny. I'm just not, yeah, kid I'm just gonna good go for it. Number three was Papa Roach. Huh? Really?

Speaker: Papa Roach, they rapped. Yeah, they sure did. System of a Down. Oh. But that's like, to me, I just consider them metal. They rap and it's like new metal. I guess. Deftones is a new metal band. Oh, shit. I should have just said Deftones. You should have stole that, Joey. Where were you? You went to sleep for a second. I was asleep for a second. Static X.

Speaker: That's what I was thinking. See, and they're pretty industrial, though. yeah it's stream See, this is a fight this is a fine line. Mushroom head. Mushroom head. Forgot all about them. I'm sad about System of a Down. What about Soulfly? The new metal spin-off of... Oh, yeah, I like that, the chick.

Speaker: Sepultura? Oh, no. sepulterre It's Sepultura, but a new metal version of I'm thinking about Flyleaf. Yeah, thinking of Flyleaf. i sure i'm Whatever. and Machine head. but They kind of like changed to like a groovy Pantera type thing, but they were a little band at one point. okay Seven Dust.

Speaker: Yeah, Seven Dust is in there. That's a big miss. P.O.D. yeah um Where's P.O.D. at? We are, we are. the Alien Ant Farm was number 20. That's funny. That's a wild swing. Why are they yeah that's not dumb there? This is torture. There are some weird ones on here like One Minute Silence, Spineshank, Cold Chamber. Spineshank. I was thinking Cold Chamber. Kitty. Kitty's a good one. But that's like metal to me. That's yeah straight up metal. Yeah, I wouldn't put Kitty on it, bud.

Speaker: Anyway, you guys kind of sucked. I did say Jeff killed. Okay. You kind of sucked. thought you guys would do a lot better. Crane kind of sucked. I kind of did this so that Joey would win. Yeah. It definitely didn't work. Sick.

Speaker: um what What does that mean for Rob? What does that mean for Rob? Well, ah she's winning. You should break shit. Yeah, but if I'm losing and she's winning. Yeah, who does that still Rob die? Or her? Rob.

Speaker: Technically, because this is your torture. So if you win, then you win the game. But if Joey wins, then that's bad news for Rob. Oh, okay. and And also it's torturous for Celine. It's still torturous for Celine. Yeah, right. it So it's a double win. Sorry, I'll try and grow the next game.

Speaker: Let's play a song. Let's play let's play a ah ah Halloween song. Yeah, why? What are these? It's Halloween songs from 2022. Okay. Because why not? Yeah. This is by a band called Grave Danger. It's called Wake the Dead, and it's not about zombies.

Speaker: It's about coffee. Whoa. So we're the dead. Human. oh Well, I guess I don't know what you are. What are you? Human. Human.

Speaker: That's a little horn. Yeah, little horns are good. Yep. Because they're evil? though you Yeah. I like evil stuff. That's my deal. This does sound evil. Horror movies.

Speaker: I like, the only coffee I like is pumpkin spice. Evil. And also it's like around Halloween. Yeah, obviously.

Speaker: would have been more evil if you were like, the coffee I like is battery acid. You know? This is gross. I don't know what's evil about that. It's gross.

Speaker: They did that Inspector Spector song last year. do you remember that one? thats a good That was a good one. Oh, okay. I think it's voice.

Speaker: It's a good voice. Mm-hmm.

Speaker: That's good. That's fine. do It's nice that Jigsaw has a sense of humor. Do I? Why are you talking about me like I'm not in the same room as you. Do you often talk about people the third person?

Speaker: Yeah. Well, maybe she's just assuming that Jigsaw isn't your like legal given name and it's ah even though you're a serial killer. First name Jig, last name Ska. Really? Yeah.

Speaker: Wow. It's also my license plate. middle Middle name Lee. Still dropping so much information to be able to find you. That's a good song. So now we know that you use a cavern and also your license plate says Jigsca on it. Yeah.

Speaker: That's sick. I don't know how this is going to help you. You should tell Rom to do that for realsies on his license plate. I'm not going to tell Rom shit. You can tell him. ah If he doesn't die. Whoa. It's an aggro.

Speaker: Wait. This is another game. Oh, aggro heavy. We got to play more games. I got like five games, so this is going to be fun. The aggro heavies. Sorry. Because I spell my band, so it's easy to find.

Speaker: Like TNT, if you're so inclined. My fans are dumb, they're illiterate. But if they read this, then they can spell shit. i This song's called All Salins Roam on Nimble Young Mare's.

Speaker: All Selins roam on nimble young mares? Yeah, acronym. ah ah I hate that. It's pretty good. No, it's not. I don't even know what that means.

Speaker: In this game, Joey and Selin will be given the acronym of a famous musical act, and we'll have to guess what it stands for. Get it right, get a point, get it wrong, get the gong. Whoa. bus sand was where's What gong? Dong. go oh i Whoa. Whoa.

Speaker: I, of course, got COVID, and don't worry about it. You're the worst. not vaccinated. Yeah, Dick Scott sucks. don't want the government to find me. Dick Scott would be anti-vax. And, yeah, probably friends with Dickie Barrett. No, I'm just a good guy.

Oh, okay. Okay, so here we go. And they're going to get but potentially potentially more difficult. Okay, first one is Kiss.

Speaker: Oh, Night Satan's Service. I mean, you should in. Yes, that's right. Sorry, I was just so excited to get it. Kisses, nice and safe and service. I was just so excited. Keep it simple, stupid? It is not. Not the band. I was thinking out loud, and I knew you going it if didn't think out loud at the same time as saying it. Because that badass. It's a badass name. I know they're, like, not that cool, but nice and safe and service is a cool name. That's not a backronym. That is actually the name of the band. Oh, okay. That makes them, like, 1% cooler. I know, you didn't want it. So now they're 1% cool.

Speaker: How about MC5? Motor City 5. Joey. That is correct. It is Motor City 5 because they're from Detroit. Yeah. ah They didn't drive very hard. Nope. There's five of them from the Motor City. Got it.

Speaker: How about TLC? Oh, so. I don't. Buzz in. That a good buzz. That was half a buzz. You're you're committing. Yeah. Like, I don't, I actually don't know, but going to say tender loving care. Yeah, that's not what it's for. I'm pretty sure it's in names. Titties look cool.

Speaker: Well, Lisa Left Eye Lopez. Right. The other two. I know, and it's not coming to me. T-Baws, Left Eye. T-Baws and Chili. Chili.

Speaker: Welcome back to Checkered Past, the SCODcast. What up, Checkerheads? This episode of Checkered Past is brought to you by Zencaster. CPSC is recorded from the frozen wastelands in our home studio, the Skankatorium.

Speaker: So when we have guests on, we always have to record remotely. Before this meant we needed a video chat program, separate DAWs to record the audio on both ends, editing software, plus a hosting site to publish it.

Speaker: When we decided to add a video component, that would have just been one more program to use, so we went on a hunt for a better way. After checking several options, we went with Zencaster and have never looked back. Not only is it top-notch at recording our guest's audio and video remotely, we can use it for post-production to level the audio, create dynamic videos that shift the speaker, and best of all, the soundboard that allows us to drop audio into the record session without having to share our screens.

Get the gong. what also stuff We both got it wrong so many times and we haven't been gonged yet. I didn't feel like doing it. yeah but the other It may or may not be more difficult.

Speaker: not going to tell you why. Here we go. for oh Here's an example. If I said Jared Leto, you would say... or right If I said 30 seconds to Mars, you would say Jared Leto. Sucks. ka wait one ok Just whoever the celebrity from the band is? Correct. okay Got it. yeah Rilo Kiley.

Speaker: No, that wasn't there. No, I'm out. Here's a clue. When being a child star is not all it cracked up to be. Next step is to be an indie star. Lindsay Lohan.

Speaker: Child star. I don't know. You know, no. Jenny Lewis. I don't know who that is. Oh, you don't know who that is? No. She was a child actor. From what? I thought that one is easy. From what? Everyone knows that she's from Ryle Kiley. From what?

Speaker: P. P. The letter P. The letter P stand for P-E-E. and but She and him. Oh, Selin. Yes. That's the Zoe Deshnell. That's the one. yeah The clue I had is she plays the uke and M. Ward sings but and you know her from Doe Eyes and Her Sister Bones.

Speaker: yeah I do love that that's her sister. no one The most shocking part of Zoe Deschanel, this isn't even a slam, is how one person can look like completely different human with like no bangs and blonde hair with bangs and dark hair.

Speaker: yeah I did not recognize her from Elf. That was all. it was just mind-blowing to me when I realized that she was an elf. That's all. Just a personal... all right When you realized that she was an actual real-life elf. That was a Jake Scott voice.

Speaker: I said, all right. That's voice sounds. Dead Man's Bones.

Speaker: Give a clue. They're most famous for playing with a children's choir. That was like a big deal at one point in the early, mid-2000s. Playing with a children's. Dead Man's Bones. Yeah.

Speaker: Oh. ah Scott, Joey. Yeah. Billy Bob Thornton. So fucking close. Oh. And also not really, but you'll see. yeah ah He might be best known for wondering if we are entertained and then punching everyone he's ever met. oh Oh, Scott Joey again. yet Russell Crowe. Russell Crowe, yeah, that's right. He always punches people. yeah that's a good thing. Fighting around the world, you know. Like one of the few Scott South Park jokes I like.

Speaker: Hmm. Hmm. So that California song, which I was trying to parody, a real earworm and got worse when was featured as a theme from the OC. the ah The drummer turned actor is best known for being smug in Wes Anderson movies and for harding the shit out of those Huckabees.

Speaker: oh ah Joey. Yes. Jude Law. No. He did Harts and Huckabee. He's the only one I can think of. i can't think of like oh it's' Luke Wilson. Oh no, but he's pretty smug. I was thinking the smuggest person in Wes Anderson films. Jason Schwartzman. ah He's pretty smug. Isn't isn't um Luke Wilson in I Heart Huckabee as well?

Speaker: that That had like 50 people, so I would not be surprised. Also, it doesn't surprise me that he played drums. He seems like a guy that would play drums to me. He's got drum energy. Big drum energy. Yeah, drummer energy for sure.

Speaker: How about the accelerators? Well, that sounds familiar.

Speaker: Clue me. who Yep. Did you know that the actor sometimes is called Bruno and plays the harmonica like a motherfucking riot? Joey. Yes. Bruce. but Yeah. Bruce from Die Hard.

Speaker: I guess drums with the tails is a good one. There's nine tails. Yeah, drummer tails. Yeah. Up to nine tails. Up to nine tails. Oh, they they vary? Yeah. Or maybe they have a different name depending on the number of tails or something like that.

Speaker: Typically nine tailed. The kitsune. Kitsune. Kitsune Maison. Remember them? Kitsune Mitsu. Kitsune Maison was a French house label.

Speaker: House cats. Scott Tune. What's going on? yeah What do you, what do you got? What I got? Yeah. I got, um, okay.

Speaker: We're going to do a, I'm going to do like a double dose here. All right. I want the Loch Ness Monster. And Ogopogo. All right. As the bass and guitarists. Okay. Okay. I'll take it. You just think they're going to have a good vibe together? Yeah. I feel like they, you know, it'd be like having like two brothers in a band or or something like like a family thing going on. Or like a podcast with two siblings. Like interrupters. so We don't talk about them around here.

Speaker: Yeah. Stop mentioning them. Jigsaw. guess you don't know. but you know hasn't listened to that episode. Yeah. No, I don't. I don't subscribe to your Patreon. Yeah. I'm trying to think of cool. Does like a Baphomet count?

Speaker: I guess so. is it or Yeah, sure. Baphomet. and I'll take it. Do you want Tiamat in there? You're going just start throwing around? Maybe. I'm also thinking like there's also like somebody many like Indian gods too.

Speaker: Sure. no you know who i want i want to lose the chick with the all the arms and she has like a head in it what's her name she's a goddess what's her name with a lot of arms i don't know damn it why are looking at she's pretty badass because it's like i just my little brain doesn't work this way i can't like dig out names i'm thinking of shiva are you yeah well she was the guy

Speaker: Mythical creatures kids. I'm pulling from like you know like mythology. Like Greek mythology or Norse mythology. You got your you got your Krakens, your Fenrirs. You got like Charybdis and Scylla.

Speaker: or yeah colie callie you col Oh, Kali. Oh, Kali. Yeah, yeah, yeah. the goddess of war. What would she what did she play? I feel like she would be like a fucking in kick-ass like lead guitar.

Speaker: We got two guitars? Yeah. Yeah, of course. Or keys. Yeah, she got lands. Keys. Let's get her on the keys. Let's get her on the keys. So we need horn section now. Okay, so we're thinking, you're thinking, well, you like Norse.

Speaker: Norse. Wait, why would you think Norse mythology? Mythology. Sorry, I just keep getting you mixed up with Rob for some reason. That's weird. Because you're wearing that Marvel's Thor shirt. I thought you were just into it. I'm a big fan of MCU, you though. Yeah. yeah you So you're into like the lore, but not the actual real-world mythical. Yeah, you got it. I like the idea that they're on a planet. I think that's fun.

Speaker: yeah Who's the little flying guy in Greek mythology? Nice. All of them. No, but the like little one. The little Hermes. ah Hermes, yeah.

Speaker: You're thinking of like the messenger god Hermes? Yeah. yeah What's he doing? I don't think he's a beast though. He's a god. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Right. So we're thinking mythical creatures. Creatures, creatures. Although we did like Cali through. So maybe. I got one. Okay. we need We need a horn section.

Speaker: ah You know who'd play a badass Barry Sachs? The Minotaur. Yeah. I feel like Minotaur. Minotaur's a good one. Yeah. Like horses, they got like. big lungs.

Speaker: I think you get like a Cerberus on horns. You could get one Cerberus for all three saxophones. Oh, that's actually cool. Cerberus plays three saxophones. You could do all three. Like one head gets a berry, one head gets an alto, and the other gets a tenor. That's cool, actually. I override the Minotaur. Okay, so Minotaur can play a tromb though. Yes. Sure.

Speaker: I override Minotaur. Minotaur. Trombone. And then Heimdall? What about Heimdall? What's Heimdall? Cerberus. We're doing Cerberus a sax trio, right?

Speaker: Yeah. Heimdall plays the gyalur horn. Is he like an actual musician in mythology? No, it's the it's the horn that signals Ragnarok. And Heimdall will blow the horn. Is it just one of those horns that's like a bugle? does it have valves?

Speaker: i i imagine does it have valves No, I imagine it's like the... Oh, and Pegasus is there. Because it's beautiful. Beautiful. I think that's a groupie. Pulling the trailer. ah Pulling a trailer with a gear. Roadie. Yeah. Pegasus as a roadie. We need a trumpet player.

Speaker: that Is that where we're... Sure. Yeah. Pegasus? I want to go back to cryptozoological. Okay. Because that's fun. To round out our band with...

Speaker: Who's playing trumpets, Lynn? Nate, let's name some cryptozoological creatures together. have the Chupacabra. Sasquatch. Loch Ness Monster. We've done all these. We're naming the band now. yeah There's a bunch of them, though.

Speaker: There are. Jersey Devil. Ah, the Jersey Devil. Oh, Spring-Heeled Jack. ah Oh, yeah. Let's get Spring-Heeled Jack on the whole that trumpet. Yeah, had them. Every member of Spring-Heeled Jack each playing a trumpet. Yeah. but Perfect.

Speaker: ah And? It's not funny. It's good. I think that's the whole band. Yeah, i believe so. Hold on, let me write this down. There's way more cryptozoological...

Speaker: Oh, Skunk Ape. Skunk Ape's cool. Skunk Ape. Very related to the... Yeah, we, oh, Yeti, that's pretty. you know Yeah, we, that's a Yeti. That's Squatch to me. That's got Squatch written all over it. Yeah, well, I feel like Yeti and the Sasquatch could be like Yeti and the Sasquatch sounds like a great like. Buddy comedy. Buddy comedy. I was thinking could be like a, like a Kenny Esteban switch thing, depending on where the band is in the country, you know? Oh, I see.

Speaker: Yeah. Yeah. So what's the band? Let's hear All right, here we go. We have singing, main vocals, the Chupacabra. Dancing around on stage, hyping everyone up. We have Sasquatch, and in other parts of the country, his mountainous friend.

Speaker: We have the Kitsune on drums, playing with all their little tails there, just giving her. Ogopogo and the Log Ness Monster on bass and guitar respectively. I'm saying respectively and deciding it now.

Speaker: ah Callie on keys, using all them arms to really just key it up. We definitely took use of multiple arms. Yeah. Which is good. Yeah.

Speaker: I mean, but so much extra playing. So many more notes, right? black Black MIDI. Sorry? Yeah, like Black MIDI where it's like thousands, millions of notes playing at the same time.

Speaker: do Yeah, I guess. That'd be wild. that And she's like the god of war, is she not? So, like, I feel like she'd be pretty aggro on keys. ah We have the Minotaur playing trombone.

Speaker: We Cerberus playing a trio of all three usual saxes. ah you Usual saxes is like usual a scott version of the usual suspect. Yeah.

Speaker: The usual saxes. And then ah the entire band of Spring-Heeled Jack each playing trumpets. The trumpets. The trumpets. what is char you that up What are you talking about? I just love Lubega. Oh, that's fair. Oh, yeah, that's what it's from. mom Number five. That's what it's from.

Speaker: Or you look dead. And he, like, untied me. And then I got up and left. He seemed confused. What the? You're supposed to, like, crush your bones and shit. Yeah. But he was, like, waiting for me to say a pun. But, you know, nobody's around. So why would I say anything? I just stared at the ceiling.

Speaker: yeah That's, like, the most sociopathic thing I've ever heard. ah uh i think just gonna get out of here guys okay bye jigs it's beens been it's been real fun bye puppet guy can't say it's been fun all right well he's gone well it's nice to have you back yeah it was fun i saved your life oh did you yeah oh that's cool thanks yeah ah that's my real birthday wish i worked against her but i'm here ah that's nice it's like an hour and 15 minutes you guys just like hanging like what were you guys doing

Speaker: We were talking to that guy. We were doing something. like the guy's style. You know? You think you're going to jump? You have a similar energy. You surprisingly, were into a lot of the same music.

Speaker: Yeah, you had a lot of similar taste. Were we playing music? Yeah. he Some ska music. Oh, hell yeah. do you want to play another ska song? Sure. Oh, yeah. We should do that. Cool. Oh, we get to listen to the Slackers.

Speaker: Oh, yeah. Hey, every Halloween, we listen to a little bit of Slackers. Why this song? I don't Spooky? Is it recent? this i don't know. This is ah that guy who's on his USB stick.

Speaker: That guy. long I think he downloaded a virus. He had a... I just noticed his license plate says Jigska. you think that's a giveaway?

Speaker: Yeah, and he said he hangs out at a cavern, and also he has a season pass at Disneyland. Did he say that? Which goes all the time. Oh, yeah, he did say that. He loves the Haunted Mansion.

Speaker: You know what? All in all, he was pretty nice. I mean, he's a pretty three-dimensional character. I could have done with less games. I could have done with a lot less games. i enjoyed them. Or less dumb games.

Speaker: Yeah, i mean, you guys have very ah similar game-creating capacities, for sure, too. You guys might be friends. I think so. Like, you tried hanging out.

Speaker: and think next time, I'll just see if you'll stick around. How did you come to be in the place that you were? Like, did you not meet when he kidnapped you? No, he was just, like, going to take me over, like, a blizzard.

Speaker: Just on the street? Yeah. Hey, dude, do you want to get a blizzard? I was like, fuck yeah, that sounds good. Love a blizzard. Love a blizzard. It's a little cold, but i'll I'll do a blizzard in the fall. Rock a hard blizzard? Yeah.

Speaker: Weird that he drove right past the Dairy Queen. But he also didn't like blindfold me or anything, so i just kind of saw where he was going. Okay. yeah Was it a cabin? Yeah, you know, it was like a hole in the Mill Creek Ravine. Jigsaw is a lot less good at this stuff than Jigsaw.

Speaker: I must admit. He's a bit of like a Walmart. I think he's like, yeah. He's figuring it out. He's like the Walmart. He's like the name brand. Like the off brand. Yellow brand. He's not. Yeah. He doesn't even have it together that in the same way.

Speaker: I mean, just like walked out the door. just like peaced out. Yeah, well, we left the door open. Should we have called the cops, I guess? Oh, no. ACAB. ACAB. ACAB. You can't trust them. Can't trust them. Forgot.

Speaker: And I don't think he wants to be found, you know? He seems like the kind of guy that doesn't want the government to where he is. if we ever need to find him, we can just go to Disneyland and look for his license plate and hang out by his car.

Speaker: Oh, yeah. Check out the Haunted Mansion. It's probably empty. um Other than him, he loves that thing. Yeah, there's always his way out. The front door? Yeah. I don't know what's happening anymore.

Speaker: Well, ah i'm I'm here. yeah might as well finish it. yeah yeah Oh, I feel great. yeah for good birthday, actually. yeah All in all. All in all, good birthday. I'm not going lie.

Speaker: Basically the entire 311 catalog. They were going that crazy. am losing color of my energy. You know? Yeah. it's ah I do know.

Speaker: It's always the same 311 songs and none of the deep cuts, and I'm sick of that shit. No one wants the deep cuts. Go on the cruise if you want the deep cuts. Listen, Mosaic is 60 minutes and 32 seconds of perfection.

Speaker: All Music gave it a four-star review, and Rob was out here giving it shitty, shitty reputation, and I'm tired of it. That's fair. I mean, you can't just listen to it over and over and over again. Jake, you think of all this? This guy's coming for your bag. Oh, me and me and the Skabadook go back. that's oh I can't believe he's here. This is of all the people. on this What happened with you and the Skabadook?

Speaker: I mean, we went to college, you know? like we're Together or just like you guys so separately both went to college? Like voice work college? Okay. They clearly did not go to that. yeah no I think that we all know that that didn't happen. This is what I sound like. I don't see the problem. yeah So if if if I may, Jigscott, back in college, I was known as Skajig.

Speaker: But the problem was, then Jigscott came on the scene, and it was just too confusing. So I had to change my name to Skabadook. And it's not been good ever since. It's really ah a branding problem, an awareness problem for me. Like, I'm out here busting my ass, and people are always talking about jigsca this, jigsca that. And i don't I don't know what I could do.

Speaker: like ever so you have to You want notoriety. You have to understand that I'm just fucking good, though, right? like that's i think Who have you killed? Name one. Yeah, name one. Name one. ah Like this, like. ah that's Yeah, that's what I thought. That's exactly what I thought.

Speaker: There was this person that was like hiking around in the and the Mill Creek ravine. Okay. And they like ah broke their ankle and started crawling in there. And I just kind of like left them there to die. And I was like, ah got you.

Speaker: I don't think that counts. They went home and watched Family Feud. They're fine. You're so bad at this. No, no, no, no. I swear to God, they're dead. No? I mean, when did you did you go back and look? check No, I went to the Haunted Mansion right after. I was like, peace, i'm going on vacation. You can take care of yourself.

Speaker: ah Let the Roomba go. I've got to get that ride. but Okay, so Skabadook, who have you killed? What's your track record? Let's talk. okay so Let's get your fame going.

Speaker: was ah right before Jikos came on the scene, there was this utter fool going around. What's the scene you're talking about? Oh, the the Scott serial killer scene? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. so yeah yeah yes It's implied. Scott Zuzu was then the main one on the scene. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker: Scott Zuzu out. Scott Zuzu was out. oh Have you ever heard of Scott Zuzu? No. Do you want anything? what That's because they're out. I took them out. They're gone. You guys respect the roots, man. Fucking Scott Zuzu had to walk so I could run.

Speaker: Steve Skazuzu? Are you talking about the first wave of Skazuzu serial killers? yeah Like, sa second, and first second crossover. Skazuzu started this situation, but you know what? They're gone. They're gone. I took them out.

Speaker: What the fuck? Is that why i haven't heard from Skazuzu? What does taking him out mean? You know what I mean? Like, what is actually... like where are you taking him out? How are you taking him out? What happened? So, we were on Main Street and in downtown Disney.

Speaker: Okay, And we were eating at the... ah Let's see. What was the name of that restaurant? It's been so long, it's hard for me to remember. ah Your accent is so interesting. It gets to look a place baby and then foghorn leghorn at times.

Speaker: Well, I am from the South, kind of. What's that? comes in and out, you know what I mean? ah But then there's kind of like an East Coast rapper type of vibe. I don't give a fuck about no birthdays.

Speaker: Anyways, how did you take him out? What happened? How'd you kill? Okay, so I took him out to a rainforest cafe that is... Fucking rainforest cafe is sick. Sick, yeah, we could all agree those are sick. It's at Disney Springs.

Speaker: And so the thing is, I know that Jigs got so into like the whole California thing, but this was in Florida. This is where Scott Zuzu lives in Orlando. Florida. Oh, yeah. Right. In Orlando. Inferior Disney. Florida, ah florida Orlando.

Speaker: Florida, Orlando. Everybody knows that. Everybody knows. So went to the Rainforest Cafe to see all the animals, and then and i caught him with the little ah perforated knife that you get.

Speaker: Okay. Where? i can't believe he had such a lame... In the neck. Okay. And then what happened? What? That was it. Fell over and I enjoyed Mamiyo and then the the rain came down during the rainforest and i was like, this is magical. but I don't know if that person died. And then Jigsca showed and ruined the whole thing. What did Jigsca do?

Speaker: Like I came on the scene. like Oh, just in je general. I would like i thought you came to the rainforest cafe and ruined your moment enjoying the rain. But then I had this whole vibe, this California vibe. flew back to college like, oh, I did it. I'm the king.

Speaker: And then Jigsca was there and I was like, oh, fucked. Well, the problem is is like, you know, surf culture was real big, and I hang 10 real well, because i'm from because I love California. But you're not from California. California, as I like to call. No, not from California. just like But I give California vibes. real Anthony Kiedis about it. Much like... and 311. You know how they're like from Iowa or whatever? Don't you dare get the name out of your fucking mouth. You fucking liar. They're from like the Midwest somewhere, but they got... Hey, guys. Hey, hey, hey. That's me.

Speaker: Okay, so honestly, so far, i don't know if either you have killed anyone. I don't think that's happened so far, to say the least. Skazuzu was laying there on the table, breathing out.

Speaker: Okay. While enjoyed my... Rainforest themed burger. I can't remember the name of it. Yeah, that's what I usually get. I call it the rainforest themed burger. Okay, he was bleeding out. From the perforated knife, he was bleeding out.

Speaker: and Yeah, yeah. I guess that would really hurt if you pressed hard enough to cut someone with a perforated knife. It would really. You'd have to go really hard. He said, ow, this hurts.

Speaker: And then he just bled out and died? Classic Skazuzu. He said, ow, this hurts. Classic Skazuzu. Yeah, ow, this hurts. I'm dead. Oh, yeah. i mean, what else you want? he stated that he was dead. That's Never mind. I guess you have killed someone. So, after the rainfall and you got your...

Speaker: Whatever, your Diet Coke and whatnot. And and you left. Did you continue your Ska serial killing spree? or was it just that one? Just one and done? That was all I needed. i proved supremacy and went back to school thinking I'm good. I'm good to go.

Speaker: so what case? So you had a different identity and then you had to be rebranded as the Ska-Maduke? Yeah, it was Ska-Jig. so way So, okay, Scott Jig. So when when did you officially have to rebrand? When Jig Scott came on the scene?

Speaker: Was that the moment at the Rainforest Cafe? Well, not at the Rainforest. I was Scott Jig at the Rainforest Cafe. Okay, that was a Scott Jig moment. yeah that was dan That was the Scott Jig joint.

Speaker: That killing was the Scott Jig joint. We're talking like the early aughts. And you know, Scott Jig had his fucking top hat and shit. Well, what did you think of Scott Jig? But I had this whole, ah you know, he's like an underclassy. So when he was Scott Jig, he already presented as the Babadook?

Speaker: or so No, no. It's just, but we have, Top hat? It's all connected. I feel like what do you don't understand. he's like no He had a vibe already. He just had to rebrand. Okay. Like, I had the mask, and I had the fucking torture chamber, and i had hanged hand. the little bike.

I want to, like, we just take a minute to, I just want to hear, like, a story from the college days of, like, Jig Ska and Skaw Jig. One time I was, like, on my, like, tricycle. Yeah. And all of a sudden i someone was, like, throwing oranges at me. I can't believe it. forgot about your tricycle. Yeah. Fucking all of sudden these oranges started flying at my head. You can smell it. And I look over rubb to my right and Scabadook is over there and he's got a full bushel behind his back. Like from the tree. And he was all like, not me.

Speaker: that That was a good, yeah, that sounds like a good bush. I sound like was like, not me. good And that was like the first time i was like, what the fuck? What's this kid all about?

Speaker: Were you like, did you like, you're like, ah he was pretty cool. Like, I want to get to know know him. Fuck no. Do you remember that day, Scott Badook? Of course. I remember it very well. I went to this old lady's orange grove and I pushed her out the way. was like, give me those oranges.

Speaker: And I put them all in a bushel. Bushel. Yeah. And I was like, these are for Jigscott's head. for Oh, so you immediately saw him as enemy number one.

Speaker: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. tired of having to change my name. Fair. He does. I do want to throw oranges at him. A bushel of them. A full bushel. I feel like people see me and frequently they say, I want to throw a full bushel of fruit at this guy.

Speaker: It's not the first time it's happened. No. Like, I'll just be tooling around on my tricycle, like, just anywhere. And people will just have to steal fruit from old ladies. Just, strawberries, like, kumquats, like, anything people can find. They're just, like, tossing them me.

Speaker: And every single time I look to them, and they got a full bushel behind their back. And they have to pretend like they weren't the ones throwing at me. It was just so frustrating. Like, that tricycle was so squeaky. And it was like, if you would just put some oil on that motherfucker.

Speaker: Well, that's not torturing people. You would be so much better at sneaking. It's about torture, not sneaking. it sounds like you ride that thing a lot. Like, how do other people on the road, as traffic, deal with that? Frustrated. can imagine. don't take bike lanes. That's probably they're throwing oranges at I don't take bike lanes. Were either of you popular?

Speaker: Fuck yeah. Skabadook? No. Definitely not. I had no friends. I ate lunch by myself. You had a bushel of oranges whenever you stole it. I was in Glee Club.

Speaker: In this game, Celine, Joey, and the Scabadook will be given progressively easier clues to ascertain the name of a band that has a geographic location in their name. Like a city, a province, a state, a country. right Dallas Green is an implication that his... Yeah, you got it. like Yeah, like Dallas Green. Yeah.

Speaker: But his band is not called Dallas Green. City in Color. His band's called City Color. Buzz in with your name, buzz, ska, whatever. That kind of thing. This is fun. Joey, you can start this time.

Speaker: Okay. No, wait. We're buzzing in. Never mind. Don't listen to me. Okay. I'm fucking up. This prog metal super group was made up of mostly of members of power metal band Savotage, but you can only expect their music once a year.

Speaker: and What? a say yeah yeah It's a power metal band. No, it's not. It's a prog metal band. The first clue is always the hard one.

Speaker: Primus? Is that a city? I got it. Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Christmas. i know. I was going to say Christmas because you said Christmas. The place is a chilly part of the world where you would only live if you were in exile.

Speaker: And then Carol of the Bells, anyone? That's what I wrote. Oh. they Do that song? yeah Trans-Niberian Orchestra is sick, actually. We used to listen to it at Mars and Venus every year. Sick.

Speaker: That and Twisted Sister Christmas, very twisted Christmas, and just that on repeat for like two months. You know who's a good guy? Dee Snod. He is, actually. he's He said some shitty things. He has, but he's like...

Speaker: often on the right side of things. I'm not saying always. He's one of those rich guys who likes think that he's on the right side of things. I don't know. I saw that. If Dick Scott likes him, I would end it. Okay.

Speaker: yeah i think he's great. I would not get high with you, Snyder. I like him. I like Graham Lineman. All right. new Proto-punk band that was certainly more style than substance in the mid-70s. New York Dolls. The places where you often see people walking here, and these jet boys have a personality crisis, but they're just trash. There we go. There you go. All right. Gothi duo that need you to know how much they love silent movies and pianos.

Speaker: I have no idea. Oh, Céline. Dresden Dolls. The place is best known for getting firebombed then rebuilt. Amanda fucking Palmer.

Speaker: the You should have just put the art of asking. Should I have? I did the game. I figured it out from the get-go, I think. just think that'd be a good that'd be a good... You figured it out in the first clue anyway. Why are trying to give notes? Because... Because... Pour one out for your homies. Because can always improve, Jakes. Yeah, yeah. You fucking can. It's called constructive feedback, not criticism.

Speaker: Pour one out for your homies. This band had a monster power pop hit in the two thousand s A monster... ah Power Man in the 2000s? I guess so.

Speaker: Get up, get up, get up, drop the bombshell. Oh my That's a Power Man 5000 song. Yeah. i i I cannot think of groups with place names in their okay name. The place is, believe it or not, a garden center in New Jersey. But hey, I didn't expect you to know that. Okay, what's the first part again? Pour one out for your homies. The band had a monster power pop hit in the 2000s. Power pop.

Speaker: Power pop hit in the 2000s. Okay, the last last clue. This will be the giveaway. I bet this mom still has it going. Oh, Stacey's mom. Celine, it's the the Fountains of Wayne. Fountains of Wayne. yeah. Fountains of Wayne.

Speaker: Wayne. I knew I'd get there if I kept talking. Indie rock cult sensation that accidentally produced an earworm 15 years after they started.

Speaker: he so so It's not City in Color. You just like bust in without having a guess? Well, like I kind of feel like I felt it for a moment, but then it was gone.

Speaker: Man, funny you said that. What? Funny that you said that. You gave yourself your own clue. Okay, but keep going. The place is a country on the Iberian Peninsula, the little one.

Speaker: That's not helpful. Yeah. ah It's not Please, Mr. Postman, but I'm sure you feel it still, especially in grocery stores. I Feel It Still would be the song.

Speaker: Who is it by I have no idea. Portugal the Man. Oh, I do. Oh, I do love that song every time it comes on. Sorry, Portugal is the Man. Okay, how does that one go? Stupid Hollywood handbook guys always saying it for so long.

Speaker: And it was a joke. No. Or he was doing it for funsies, you said? What? I didn't say anything about his... Well, I thought one of the... It was like was an indie band that it accidentally happened. Yeah. That wasn't... No, because they didn't know it was going to be a huge single. they just thought they were just... It was hit.

Speaker: That's not a state. What state's Detroit in? Sorry, what was the first clue again? Folk punkers that rose in the boom with This Bike is a Pipe Bomb and AJJ. There's not a band called Michigan?

Speaker: Grandpa Guitars, Joey. I know. That's why I don't know what it is because I wouldn't listen to them. Fire next time. I'm just going to throw it out. I think it's wrong. Antarctica, Vespucci. Oh, no. Mumford and Sons.

Speaker: I don't how punk they are. The band is, because I have another clue, but therere you're not going to get it. No, please get another clue. If you haven't guessed it by now, you probably won't, but they have the same name as a cross punk band and they hate getting confused for each other.

Speaker: Train hopper music. All right, this next one. Smelly shows, I bet. Smelly shows. Okay, my first clue. Boy band. Backstreet Boys, N-Sync. Are you going to buzz in and make a guess? I'm thinking loud until I get there.

Speaker: Sugar Ray. That's a boy band? That's not a boy band. You're not a boy band. It kind of is. The second clue. ah Like a really big boy band.

Speaker: Wow. Okay, everyone shut up. Shut the fuck up. Everyone just shut up. Like for once in all of your lives, if you could all shut the fuck up for fucking ten seconds so I could fucking think.

Speaker: Here? band. Boy band. I know them all. Here's the last clue. Come on. They were like two kids on the blog supremely huge. No.

Speaker: The block is a place. The block is place. What year? Can you give me a date? When all the boy bands were out. Give an era. 2000s? Like the late 90s, early aughts. Late 90s, early aughts.

Speaker: Like the late 90s more I'd We're all going to groan so hard. Savage Garden? Garden is also a place. Fuck. Don't. I will say 98 degrees Selin had said it NSYNC Backstreet Boys The Street is

Speaker: and Well, by that logic, mine was also technically correct. Backstreet is like a like part of a city like they were in. Yes. Not just in a at the back, like the alley. Were you even keeping track of points on that?

Speaker: I was, and but we weren't getting a lot of it. Yeah, you guys were not getting that at all. So we got a few at the beginning. Yeah. So play one more song. We'll announce the ultimate winner. Oh, yeah. Here we go.

Speaker: Oh, boy.

Speaker: Mega Infinity. Yeah. Friends. It's a cool song.

Speaker: I don't know if there's a connection with all five of the songs I play. lee Just songs that you like, I guess. I think so. I think they're just from this year. you brought your old... Yeah, you picked weird points of all of them.

Speaker: Yeah. I think that's just a Chick Scott thing. Yeah. I'm just going to put this out there. You can do it if you want to do it. Maybe you have such strong opinions about it.

Speaker: Maybe I will. I don't see you on my couch at 9 o'clock at night frantically putting songs together.

Speaker: if I only see one guy doing that. Wait, you... Jigs got Rob. I'm confused who's doing these bits. This one? This one's me. I made the songs.

Speaker: Rob does his own shit. I've got this... This episode's a Jigs got hijacked. I mean, I do like this part. This part very cool. Good job using this part. Yeah, that's what thought. Finally didn't cut it off before good part.

Speaker: Well, I was gonna cut it right here. i guarantee it. Oh, yeah. Yeah. yeah Yeah. Before the solo every fucking time. for the so Jake Scott hates solo. You know what the good news is, though?

Speaker: Scabadook lost. Scabadook lost. And Jake Scott keeps his. Scabadook, I have enjoyed you being here, to be honest, but I am glad Rob is safe.

Speaker: um And I will do what I can to raise your profile because I do. i root for the underdog. And yeah we're all rooting for you. I'll retweet your shit. We're rooting for you. I'll retweet your shit. appreciate that. I appreciate need all the help I can get. My branding is a real problem.

Speaker: That's what I saying. There's someone coming in here. oh um Who's that over there? I feel a warmth. Hey, guys. What's going on? Whoa. Fucking again? right Yeah, he's here. He's been here. How did you get out of the Mosaic jail?

Speaker: Oh, man, it just was like pumping like get so loud that all of a sudden like the bars around me collapsed. Like it was just tectonically so bassy.

Speaker: And so I was able to just get out that way. Fucking that album does not get better after repeat listens. So it wasn't like you're grooving. can't believe it. You didn't learn a goddamn thing.

Speaker: Scott, how do you feel that your captor has escaped? Captive? I'm going to captive make Rob listen to our album till the city's on fire.

Speaker: ah You get it? Because that's a song from the album? Yeah. you don't get it because nobody listens to that fucking album. Rob has. I mean, I have, but you know, after a certain period of time, I think I just started to like, you know, tune it a little bit. So what's like Jigsaw's purpose right now? know, it's all done. This is all done. what Would you want to say happy birthday to Rob? no.

Speaker: It's no longer about him. This is about my fucking pride. Okay. So like I took care of business. Fuck you, Jigsca. Yeah. but I'm coming for you now. Fuck you, Jigsca.

Speaker: You know what? I'm coming back. to This year, it's over. You know, we took care of it. I saved Rob this year. This is like the Jigsca saved Christmas. mean, we saved Rob. By making games that were somewhat skewed towards people here. You didn't do anything.

Speaker: With our ah ah incredible, impressive musical knowledge. Savannah and Joey are the ones that are floated at me. But also I feel conflicted because they're willing to help me. yeah think You should be. But Jigs got into shit. Life is complicated. But you know what?

Speaker: ah been through a lot of this and history will always smile on Jigs got. History will always smile on Jigs got? Always. I'm going to get you, Jigs got. That's reflected in our download numbers.

Speaker: Well, I don't know. Should I just like close the episode? Who's this guy? Nobody ever really – Skabadook? Yeah. Look at that. You didn't – well, I'm assuming you saw him when he was – Hey, Rob. I'm Skabadook. There was something. Like he told hostage. I was like walking around and all of a sudden I just heard somebody giggling behind me and they were like playing a thought he got you when the bass kicked in. And then the bass – yeah, the bass kicked in. All of a sudden in some jail somewhere. That's when he gets you.

Speaker: And listen in to Mosaic by 311 and told, I'm going to listen to this until I get it, whatever that means. yeah And then that was it. I saw nobody. I saw nobody. So this is him. That's the guy who did it. You know what? i like his style. Do you have anything to say to him? Yeah, sweet hat. I was only.

Speaker: ah Oh, thanks. You guys seem friendly now. It's inspired by a pork pie. It's inspired by a pork pie. Look, I'm not unreasonable. No, you're not unreasonable. He didn't learn a goddamn thing, but it's about me versus Jigsca. Yeah, it started out being about Rob, and then it very quickly just became about Jigsca and Skabadook.

Speaker: Isn't that how it always goes, though? Yeah. Yeah, it's always about Jigsca and Skabadook. Always. Every time. Well, it's another year. ah We did it. I guess this is, like, did you do a whole episode? Like, was that, like, what was going on? Yeah, we did a bunch of Lidl games.

Speaker: I guess I have to listen back and figure out what happened. Spooky ska music. Oh, yeah. Jigsaw brought his iPod. SPI. have an iPod classic. Bands. Still works. yeah Spooky SPI bands.

Speaker: how do you How do you find all these musical ah things? How do you find all the bands? not 100% certain what your question is. I don't know. I feel like we should plug these bands somehow and direct people to listen to their music.

Speaker: I think they may or may not be all on the same label. May or may not. Yeah, they are. They're they're run by my good friend, Cool Chris. And ah you can find all of them at SPIrecords.com. They're scabriclos.

Speaker: Yeah, Skabadook is good at the plugs. The problem is the branding of the Skabadook itself. right. But Skabadook International has lots of very cool bands. All of the bands play today. All of the bands play today. That's what it is. All the ones that play today are on the same label.

Speaker: Yeah, we kind of do stuff with Cool Chris every now and then. Maybe we can convince him to help you get out there a little bit. Yeah, he's going play. I should ask him, but I've been a little nervous about it. And I've also been busy getting high, hanging out with, you know.

Speaker: Lil Wayne? Yeah. and also also doing murders and messing with Rob. Going to Rainforest Cafe. Yeah, you're busy guy. Yeah, Rainforest Cafe keeps me very busy. Yeah. um Also, I'm very upset with the people at IGN that made a list of spooky villains and they put Jigsaw above the Babadook, even though I'm not related to the Babadook. It still upsets me yeah but by proximity.

Speaker: so I'm sorry, objectively? They're on my list too. So so the thing is, i just i have a lot going on. And so it's hard for me to find time to ask O'Kris for help. That's fair. I'll do it. I'll i'll whole hook you up. Jigsaw as like a horror movie villain is far scarier than the Babadook.

Speaker: I'd say. i am not related to Jigsaw. ah But it's kind of. ah I don't see the similarities even slightly. What about the tricycle?

Speaker: What? What about the little red swirls on your cheeks? What? ah What about everything? what about everything? About how sick I look? in them Thanks for listening to Checkered Past.

Speaker: Skar. Badook. Skabadook.

Speaker: Everyone, this is the Skabadook. He's been here before. He's been on the podcast before. He kidnapped me and made me listen to 311 for 24 hours straight. Because Rob is a hater. Still sucks.

Speaker: Still sucks. You are hater. Why are you here? like that yeah why Why are you at SPI Fest too, Scabadook? Well, because you and I have beefs. I'm an expert on beefs. Beefs? And I'm here to do a lecture circuit on beefs.

Speaker: There's a lot of beefs in the news lately. There's a lot of beefs in the news lately. With Kendrick and Drake. And so, you know. Baby Storm's getting in there. The beef expert. Yeah. I'm here to speak about beefs.

Speaker: So let's talk about Kendrick and Drake then. where Where are you at with this beef? This has got to be the apex beef right now. Well, it doesn't compare to the beef that we have. However, I would say that I'm team Kendrick on this beef. Yeah, yeah. Obviously.

Speaker: Even as Canadians, we do not stand by Drake. He is a weenie. No, we don't need him. Emily has had BBL. I would say there is no evidence on Drake's side. So... I feel like all claims are not substantiated. Limited bars. Limited bars. seems Limited bars. Intelligent?

Speaker: Yes, yes. yeah How about, okay, so did you hear that Macklemore got in on that one? Oh, I find that incredible. However, the beef is a little thin. It's just more like, I'm making a point, which is great, but in terms of beefs, it's not all that great.

Speaker: when he When he was asked Kendrick or Drake, he said Palestine. Exactly. Exactly. Hell yeah. And of course, Scabadook is always saying free Palestine. Always.

Speaker: But I am here to talk about bees. You're unlikable in every other way. Yes. Love the pro-Palestine part. Yes. Hate everything else. Exactly. You you understand. and As I said, Scabadook is for the people.

Speaker: However, I'm here to speak about beefs, and in that song, there wasn't a ton of beef just making the point. How do you feel about the Megan Thee Stallion and Nicki Minaj beef? Bigfoot versus Hiss.

Speaker: I'm all team Nicki. Are you kidding? Are you a Barb? That's the most evil thing you could actually be. I don't know. Bike people? so Don't even ever get me started. I don't know what you want me to say about this. You're you're doing you're trying to get it on purpose.

Speaker: It's working! It's working! New beef happening right now. Scabadoop. Slim's going to get tortured next Halloween. Well, now that I've stirred it all up, I think I should go.

Speaker: the Scabadoop, everybody. The Scabadoop is a lot of people. Thanks for sporting the team, Scabadoop.

Speaker: Is this a two-hander? Yeah. What's your ah history with ska music? Your checkered past?

Speaker: Not fond. Gotta say. Whoa. fond. I kind of like those Psycho Billy songs that we played a couple years ago, but I can't say that ah it's for me.

Speaker: You know still haven't warmed up? You haven't like listened to some Oingo Boingo? feel like Oingo Boingo's up your alley. They do some ska. I like like the Simpsons theme song. Okay. I mean, that's not ska.

Speaker: No, but it's Oingo Boingo-y, right? mean, it's the guy from Oingo Boingo, yeah. Were there other people in Oingo Boingo? I think I thought the elf dog had the whole thing.

Speaker: Man, that'd be pretty sick if he was just a one-man band and he was, like, dead man partying by himself. ah Dead man's party, not a dead band party, am I right? but ah Yeah, I guess you are.

Speaker: Oh, wait a second. I think someone else... you that points ah ah that hello rob i don't give a fuck about your birthday again oh shit it's it's the people's monster the people's champ is here but great i see the fucking jigs guys here again what how could this happen hi scabaduke i don't know how this could happen again and i'm where okay hold on scabaduke do you know where selen is

Speaker: i am age one year. Every time you ask a question. Every time you will ask me and I answer, i age one year. so why do I not have a pure heart?

Speaker: I think you know, you look inside, you look in a fucking mirror, you ask yourself that fucking question. I'm not fucking aging a year fucking answer your dumb ass.

Speaker: So... whoa Don't let him... Don't let him go into a lethal game. Statements only. I think my accent is contagious.

Speaker: I mean, iger one and I'm the one with the little games here, personally. i thought we were going to be playing games with Rob and Celine today. But Scabadook, Scabadook, I'm interested in.

Speaker: Scabadook's a good guy. From what I can tell, he's true and pure of heart. I do feel we're on the same page here, but I'm still pretty confused where Rob is. Because that's I'm not even here to do, I just want to take Rob to listen to 311's Voyager, and that's it.

Speaker: Oh, 311's Voyager. That's an update. Which one's that one? That's the other one that Feldy produced that Rob keeps shitting on. Oh, right. They're in the chicken house.

Speaker: There's a little house in the woods. Okay, you see know you know you know about the house in the woods. ah Little house, little house, turn your back, your front to me.

Speaker: Those are the vets to get into chicken house. Robin Salin went to chicken house. They said the words. They go into chicken house, house with chicken feet, and they are there now until I can prove that they are true and pure of heart. So they're just hanging out like eating KFC? i They might be.

Speaker: I don't know if Uber Eats. I haven't had luck with it. They have to know the code. Maybe churches? I guess if you put on the notes in Uber Eats, the phrase, if they can get past the bone fence and the three horses they pass. Like putting all the info so they can get into your apartment complex. First you walk to the forest and you see a white guy. I mean, you could just ask them leave it outside the bone fence. That's not a big deal. You just leave it. Now it's like,

Speaker: I just say, like, leave it outside the door. or not That's actually pretty. But then how how does Robin Sillen get out of house to bone fence to get food? Yeah, that's a good idea. How do they get out of that? kill That's a great question. They asked me, like, all of business. And the house is spinning, so they might be throwing up. Not a good idea for Do you age if you ask yourself a question and you answer? Absolutely not. No.

Speaker: No. Okay. I am only 13, so being careful. Oh, wow. Okay. And... i So from what I know... So you were like nine when you showed up? yeah Yeah, yes.

Speaker: Wow. okay wait you Wait, you were nine when you showed up? Yeah, at least. Wow. Okay. Now you're like 15? Yeah.

Speaker: How old can you be? like how old can you go I need you to stop asking me questions. okay so and This is going to get rough when we get into the games. That's why I'm freely giving you so much information so you don't have to ask me. I'm giving you the information I'm assuming you're going to ask.

Speaker: And when I lay down at night, my nose is so big it touches the ceiling. oh wow it is pretty big wow i mean i am having to like bob and weave around that schnoz yours when you're talking to me but yeah okay i will eat you i'm not above cannibalism i need you all are you like but in our game now are you like you know killing people in the woods is that your whole deal like because that's kind of like our deal If they cross me, if I don't like them, if I change my mind after helping them, if they yeah if they don't do the tasks that I set out for them and they bail on tasks. That's a dinner. That's how you do it.

Speaker: so You don't even know. do it You even know. i get it. home yeah these all know he's ze love yoga these yeah These young kids, I vibe with them, right? i'm on to tell you um i believe like these kids i' think and je I'm Jen Alpha. i don't think either of these guys have killed very many people, to be honest.

Speaker: I might be the only one who's actually eaten and killed people. Okay, let's hear about it. Who have you killed? Let's hear about it. yeah What about all these questions? you trying to age me? What is going on? I asked a statement. I said, let's hear about it. I didn't ask question. Let's hear about it? Okay. yeah I'm being respectful. No, thank you very much.

Speaker: Well, at one point, you know, there is this hero and he you know, he comes to the woods and he sees a white horse and a guy dressed in white. And he's like, oh, that's weird. And then there's a red horse and a guy dressed in red. And like, that's kind of weird too. And then there's a black horse and a guy dressed in black. And then night falls.

Speaker: And he comes up to me yeah and i didn't like the cut of his jib. Yeah. So I cooked them and ate them. That's like an article term. Sometimes people, i give them tasks and they don't fulfill the tasks and I have no choice. i I have nothing but somebody who holds up that end of the bargain. So if I say, you don't do a thing, you don't do a thing, I eat you.

Speaker: Like I'm going to eat you. So you're kind of like a boss. You're kind of like, do this job or you get fired from life? Hey, they come to me. I'm just in the woods in Chicken Hut. They're the ones who get told to come to Skabayaga.

Speaker: Okay. I'm at least 20 right now. ah I am in need of three more horses for a project I'm working on. Can I have that red, black, and white horse you're talking about? You think I'm in control of the people on the horses? That's ah that's in the fabric of time.

Speaker: Don't don't don't even play into that. I have a question, though. I'm so sorry that it's a question. um What your opinion on the Rainforest Cafe? That's very important to me.

Speaker: Stunning. I love it. I love it. I'm a guardian of the forest. I also like the rainforest. And I think what they do is they really get people to think about the forest. And they think, right wow, it is it is really nice. And all these animals, they're good.

Speaker: what Do you prefer the animals? You know what's good news is you don't have to order off the kids menu after today. That will be nice. I think I can get into a bar after today. I think I can get one of those delicious cocktails on that Inforrest Cafe menu. Right.

Speaker: Take home a cup? Like, thunderstorm or animatronic animals? That's a question. I know, but I got to know the answer. well What's your favorite?

Speaker: I can tell you a story. sure Please. So one day ah there is a hero and he's driving through the forest. Okay.

Speaker: And so he goes and there's a white horse. And he's got a thin white horse. And he's like, that's pretty weird. The sun rises. He goes a little further. He sees a red horse with a person dressed in red.

Speaker: And he's like, that's pretty crazy. and he goes to the end and it's a black horse, person dressed in black, night falls. And then he gets to my house and I don't like the cut of his jib, so I eat him.

Speaker: And ah that night it was a beautiful thunderstorm and I'll never forget it. So thought I love thunderstorms. Sweet. I gotta say this. i think like I think I have some hero energy.

Speaker: I could easily go through these three horses. Absolutely not. You may like the cut of my jib, though. I'm not sure, but I think you will. definitely don't like your jib. I have no interest in cutting it. You got to know me. think we only have the worst jib of all time.

Speaker: I like Scabadook, though. Scabadook's got something. You know, I met him one time. Like in real life. That's true. That's true. We met when I was on my East Coast lecture tour.

Speaker: Yeah. Yeah. he He came on the pod. He was dressed very well. And then he lost all his clothes from what remember. Well, yeah. What happens is I'll appear somewhere and then like just disappear like in a cartoon or something. Like leave the clothes behind.

Speaker: i have like 30 different outfits. Okay. Do they all involve capes? well yeah it's the same outfit like i'm not an oh yeah i'm gonna just keep the same thing if it works you don't have to change it but you know all she feels wear keeps but this hero wears one keep yeah it's true

Speaker: keeps them identified only when when ah the cape is not like necessary i don't have a cape on right now because it's casual it's sunday but um The cape is very important for public appearances. You look stupid church in a cape.

Speaker: Sorry? You look stupid born at church in a cape. You think I'm going to go to church? Get out of here. Unless you're talking about the Rainforest Cafe, which is where I go to worship. I mean, I do play to, you know, the underworld often.

Speaker: Okay. So you're like fair. Like an osteoary. An osteoary. ah know what that is Like where there's bone, bone churches. okay. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Like osteoporosis, but a euary instead.

Speaker: No. And I will take a year on that to tell you now. Shit. Okay. Damn. Okay, well okay and we need to I would like to know if Robin Sillian are true and pure of heart, and i believe that if we play these games, and whoever becomes the victor, perhaps they will be set free.

Speaker: Okay, so if if we play games... Yes, everyone but Jigsaw, if they win... Wait, what? does what Everyone but Jigsaw? if If you or the Skabadook win, you'll set them free is what you're saying?

Speaker: and But but what if Jigsaw wins. Yeah, if Jigsaw wins, whatever. Then he can do whatever he wants with Rob and Cillian. He can come to that little chicken house and take him away. Gotta get the horses. but I could put all in one trip.

Speaker: This is awesome. Okay, but when will Rob listen to Voyager if I win? Immediately, I'm pretty sure. and Okay, great. Then that's fair. Deal.

Speaker: Let's do it. Also, I was going to say, like we might be able to trick him. if If you come on the show and you pick 311 as your band, you might be able to get him to listen to a whole bunch at 311.

Speaker: You know, I'm pretty busy, but i' you know we might be able to work that out. We could talk about that. We'll see how the games go. Last time, it didn't go that great, and um I still have nightmares. But Selene's not here, so it's probably going to go better.

Speaker: Yeah. if there's any games about games about ah drugs and songs or whatever it was yeah yeah show up highestious yeah that's why i'm worried about the true and pure of heart she's so true and pure of heart why'd she know so much about drugs she did know why'd she know much about drugs uh what's your issue with rob as far as her have you met them yeah yeah you're right i love said That's obvious. That was worth a year. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, yeah. How did they take it when you captured them?

Speaker: Pardon? How did they take it when you captured them? They were pretty cool about it. They were, like, a little confused, but they're all, you know them. they're pretty They're pretty open-minded. They're down for an adventure. Yeah.

Speaker: um I got to say this about Rob and Scabadoo can back me up on this. This is where we probably agree. ah He makes a pretty shitty a victim. He doesn't seem to like play into it very well.

Speaker: He's just kind of. I don't really have an opinion on that. I wasn't there most of the time. I just kind of set up my boom box on loop and then just came here. So, you know, I don't know. Rob's really fixated on the three horses.

Speaker: Really fixated on the three horses. Yeah. Wouldn't let him go. he' was really busy thinking about that. And not barfing in the chicken hut. but No, he's not a puker.

Speaker: Not a puker. but That's like weird. I had to clean up so much puke last year when I went back. There was so much puke. I mean, it had to be from Rob. I he's still so shocked by the horses. Yeah.

Speaker: of It could be that he ran out of puke. Just puked it all out. That's true. And maybe he was barfing for you so much, Skabadoop, because he just dislikes Feldy's production so much. I just truly don't understand that. It's so perfect.

Speaker: You know. do you call your fans? look Skabayaga heads. Little paws up little monsters.

Speaker: I think somebody else uses that one. No, I'm pretty sure it's Pals of Little Monsters. It's Kabayaga. Okay. Yeah. but the You've been around for a while, so you might predate the other one. mean, now. I was pretty young before, and then fucking Mr. Question Heads.

Speaker: Now you've got be in your 20s for sure. least.

Speaker: Okay. Well, let's start some games here. let's Let's get these this game ball rolling. Right. So Jigsaw in the player seat? You are in the player seat.

Speaker: The people were asking for it. Remember, you're the one who really needs to win here. Jigsaw. Jigsaw. ah Yeah, you're the one who who's really in the hot seat here because you've got to win if you want to draw in quarter.

Speaker: Well, I'm coming to win. Don't you worry. Okay. So this first game... Is called From the Screen to Your Stereo. And it is...

Speaker: ah in this game, players will be given a movie name and will buzz in or say Ska or their name. Ska Baya Gah. To guess if the box office or streaming numbers of a given movie are bigger.

Speaker: So either the box office numbers of the movie or the biggest song from that movie. Oh, shit. Musicals. That's a good one. I like it. Okay, so...

Speaker: ah Also, you don't have a song? what I don't have a song. I just have good names. Just good names for all my games. No songs. um So the first part is going to be you're going to guess whether the streaming number or the box office number is higher, right?

Speaker: Then the players will be given the lower number and have to guess how much higher the ah bigger number is. And whoever, it's like a closest without going over type of situation. Okay, I think I got it. A little convoluted, but whatever. It's it's good though. Once we get the first one, you'll you'll have a pretty good idea what's going on. Okay.

Speaker: Whatever you say, man. Let me just know me just say that. Whatever you say, man. So I'm going to give you the name of movie and you're gonna buzz in and tell me which is higher, the box office or the streaming numbers. That part I get.

Speaker: Okay. Got it. Here comes Hedwig and the Angry Inch. Jigsco. All right, Jigsco. What do you think?

Speaker: The song. You think the song is a higher number than the streams? You are incorrect, my friend. no You're not really my friend. You were incorrect, my enemy. yeah i got really excited for a second. yeah Is there a steal option? can i Can we steal?

Speaker: ah Yeah, I think Skabadook was on it before. So it's just whoever gets it fast after someone fucks up? Yeah, sure. if These games are good. Go go for it.

Speaker: ah Okay, well, the movie has more. Okay. yeah so why you know So the number of streams that the song has is 3.2 million.

Speaker: Okay. Give me a guess on how much the box office was. um Okay, so... It'll be a higher number than 3.2 million.

Speaker: Uh-huh, yeah. ah Let's go with 7 mil. Okay, 7 mil. Anybody else want to take a guess? We're going highest without going over.

Speaker: The closest without going over. Just how many streams the movie has on what? All streaming platforms? How much how much box money? Box office. Box office money. The Hedwig and the Angry Inch made? Yep. i't I think it bombed, didn't it?

Speaker: Yeah, it's called classic. That's why I don't... The streaming numbers 3.2. Jake Scott, are you of film buff? ah Yeah, a little bit. Yeah, I would consider myself a bit of a film. Here's some of my favorite movies.

Speaker: The Joker. Joker folia de... Do you like the second one? I thought you wouldn't. Loved it. Because it's not as incel-y. It's still pretty incel-y.

Speaker: All right. Pause little monsters. For your doom. Yeah, seven fucking million and one. I don't fucking know. Okay. Jigska, do you have a guess? Five. Man, you guys all suck at this.

Speaker: There was the actual streaming, or sorry, box office number was 3.6 million. Just a hair. knew was going be like not much higher. but Yeah, it it surprisingly ah very close in numbers, which is pretty wild. But that is a newer movie and hasn't had a whole lot of time to accumulate stuff.

Speaker: And we don't get to hear to the song? no There's no song. Okay. Oh, I have the title of the song, though. It is Origin of Love. That is the number one streaming song from that movie.

Speaker: so Okay, it's no points. Nobody nobody got that one. Okay. Hey, come on now. Skabayaga. Skabayaga. Skabayaga. Come on now. I'm trying to run a game here. All right.

Speaker: The next ah movie is The Blues Brothers. Jigsaw. All right, Jigsaw. The movie. The box office. You think the box office is bigger than the streaming numbers? Yeah.

Speaker: You are correct. okay the box office or sorry The streaming numbers, Everybody Needs Somebody to Love, which is apparently the number one song from that movie, was 71.6 million.

Speaker: Jesus Christ. Yeah, it's like not that high, surprisingly. ah But the box office is higher than that. What do you think the box office draw was for that film?

Speaker: Skabayaga does not make numbers in this way. Skabayaga has no fucking clue. One hundo, okay. You're on the board with one hundo. R-rated movie in the eighty s i don't know what they were making.

Speaker: 100 million. I truly don't know. one night one less than that. One less. One less. So they're million. Yes.

Speaker: Scabadook? The conversion rate between box office and streams is real confusing to me.

Speaker: There's just a lot going on. and Yeah, the math ain't math. I think I'm just going to say 80 mil. 80 mil. Yeah. Okay.

Speaker: The actual box office numbers were $115.2 million. So Jig Scott. Jig Scott here. Jig Scott. What's he going to with Robin Flynn?

Speaker: What's he going to do if he wins? You know what's another movie I really like? Blues Brothers 2000. Okay. okay This next one is another cult classic. We have the Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Speaker: Sky Paduk. Give her Scabadook. You think it's boxed off streaming number? Streams for are strange I think you should name the number one song. Take a stab in the dark.

Speaker: Well, is it Time Warp? is the Time Warp. It is the Time Warp. ah Streams for sure. Yeah, Streams for sure. That is incorrect. So guess Skabayaga, the box office. Skabayaga just away. Yeah, okay. The box office is the higher one.

Speaker: The number of streams for the song is 78.9 million. That's it? Oh, wow. Yeah, I thought it would be way higher. Me too, when i when I found this information.

Speaker: So the box office number will be higher than that. 200 million. Oh, yeah, that's a solid guess. 80. 80. 80 million?

Speaker: Yeah. Okay. So we have 200 million. ah Because it's 500. 500 million. No, 200. Go back to 200. Okay. Because I don't know think it's counting. I don't think it's counting the Shadowcast stuff. Okay. but yeah So we have 200. Even though BoxOffice.com said to all.

Speaker: i can I'm going to go in the middle, 110.

Speaker: Okay. Scabadook, you get the point on that one. The actual number is $115.7 million. so gross. I just don't think they make a lot of money.

Speaker: they they do If it's every year and they sell in Edmonton alone, they do like four shows a year. Are you from Edmonton? Yes. oh Wow. I have a cave in the Mill Creek Ravine. and should come hang out. ah but up Well, I don't think so. I think I'll be busy that day.

Speaker: No, no. We'll chill. i got worry like no i I have a feeling I'll be busy. Like if I'm walking my dog and you're walking your dog, like I might wave, but that's about it. Oh, that's cool that you have a dog.

Speaker: That's cool. Yeah. Thank you. We got game Yeah, yeah we're we're doing a game. that what this is? It is. The next movie is The Phantom of the Opera. And i'm sure, I'll give you the title track, this the name of the song.

Speaker: Is The Phantom of the Opera. ah So which which ah is higher? The streaming numbers or the box office? See, this one would almost be more...

Speaker: all Go ahead. Go ahead. You're you're already going. go No, I was just shitting on Joey. You can answer. Thank you. Well, have a query before I say.

Speaker: Okay. Cover your ears. So which version of the movie is this? Aren't there more than one? The 2007 one? Yeah, this this would be the 2007 one for sure.

Speaker: Okay. Streams. I'm going streams. Okay. That is incorrect. God damn it. shit It's the box office? It is the box office. Now, the number of streams is 69.8 million.

Speaker: What? Yeah, sarah which is a crazy low number. Sarah Brightman, right? People don't want to listen to the song? ah but I don't know. if I clicked it and I was like, what the fuck? I've heard this song a gajillion times. I have no idea how it's such low streaming numbers. Because the cast recording is probably higher. Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Maybe that's it. That's what I'm thinking because you know, Phantom of the Opera is a tricky choice because there's like, know, like filmed parts of the cast. There's like two different versions of the movie. you looked at like the soundtrack? Yeah.

Speaker: Yeah, that's the movie soundtrack. Official soundtrack. The OST. Of the 2007 movie? Yes. Okay. Well, no wonder it's lower. Jesus Christ. Yeah, that's it.

Speaker: This game seems to be frustrating everybody. Skabayaga, I guess the fucking movie. like I'm in torture chamber right now. Box office, I guess. Okay, what's your box office guess number? Okay, what was the number of streams? 69.8 Okay, I guess again, 115 million. 115, that is a solid guess.

Speaker: fifteen million hundred and fifteen is a solid gap Do have any other guesses? 70. 70. Okay.

Speaker: And? 200. 200. I think it did good. You think it did good? like yeah think I think the movie did good, yeah. it did It did okay. did 154 points. Son of bitch.

Speaker: So it Skabayaga. And I'm going to do the one with the craziest numbers. I never thought I'd be on Jigscore's side, but then... It's fair.

Speaker: ah The Greatest Showman is a very popular musical. Scabayaga. Streams. Streams. You are correct. Scabayaga. Yeah. That song was a hit.

Speaker: yeah Yeah. People fucking love to listen to The Greatest Showman. See, this was a good choice. Okay, so The Greatest Showman made 459 milli at the box office What do you think the streaming numbers are like? yeah Fucking Boz Lerman, eh? 500 million. 500 million, Skabayaga.

Speaker: What do we got? i go to go I'm going to go 610 mil. Okay. No one's ever done this before. buh-buh-billion.

Speaker: Whoa! I don't think anyone's even said it like that before either. That's crazy. I wouldn't know. I've never listened to his show. Jigsaw gets the point. What about my other stuff? You get the first point. okay And he gets the other point. 1.03 billion streams for Rerate the Stars.

Speaker: I've listened to the show before it and I know sometimes you like to ignore the women and not give them points. You get the points. But who was the winner, Joey? Jigsaw edged out the other two by one point. ah jigscow edged out the other two by one point ah People i usually say I'm an edge. Gabadook, we got to figure... I guess, like i don't know. i Now I'm kind of rooting for Saladin Rob. I was like kind of neutral on them, but now I hate Jigsaw so much that I need him to lose.

Speaker: That's fair. Of course, Jigsaw was able to do the best and the most confusing game.

Speaker: Jigsaw loves this kind of shit. You know what? I'm going to do one more bonus one that's not a musical. ah And it is... Goldfinger, the movie Goldfinger versus the song, the band Goldfinger's biggest streaming song, Superman.

Speaker: Joey, I'm going to say it right now. Just tell us the answer. yeah yeah Yes, please. Thank you. Okay. ah the Superman was streamed more than the box office for the 007 film Goldfinger. Sick.

Speaker: You what? The box office was 51.2 million Goldfinger. Superman has gone ah almost 150 million streams, which is like lot. That's a lot. That is.

Speaker: A lot. Goldfinger. Yeah. Or do you think it's just Feldly putting it on on like different devices in his house? I bet he can afford a lot of devices. That's what I'm saying.

Speaker: Yeah. I think it's in the production contract that you have to loop some Goldfinger during the production of the album. Right, yes. That sounds right. that's That would make sense. That's how you unlock the auto-tune. You have to like play a Goldfinger song 10 times to unlock the good auto-tune when you're working with Feldy. He's kind of like Diddy, but instead of SA, he makes you just listen to Goldfinger.

Speaker: who whoa

Speaker: I've been listening to a lot of them. I used a proper term. I've been listening to a lot of Diddy stuff on YouTube. Why don't you put Diddy in the chicken hut?

Speaker: I wish. She did say she's an editor. The feds won't give him up. The feds won't give him up. ah give him up yeah i've been trying to offer bail they said no bail well you can't tell him you want to bail him out yeah and then i'm gonna put him in the house what is this a modern batman movie there's no bail brother brother i i kind of liked that one just so your original plan was for diddy and you settled for selen and rob Yes.

Speaker: That's a step down. That's all the only ones I could get. They're the only ones who fell for the bit. ah Okay, that that does that track. track They and saw the horses and they just kind of kept going where the horses went.

Speaker: Should we take a break, Joey? Sorry? Should we take a break? oh Yeah, maybe we should take a break. Jigsaw really likes to have the show rolling well. He's he's on. he's He's watching the clock here.

Speaker: I thought it was all evil, but you know what? All right, and we're going to take a break. And when we come back, more games.

Speaker: Welcome back, Checkerheads. It's ah Engineer Joey here with three maniacal killers. oruppa yaga One of them who is maniacally killed. Two who I am a little bit wary of actually having killed. Do you think they've had any murder?

Speaker: I killed Skazuzu. It's cannon, perforated knife to the neck. We're not doing that again. You know it's true. Everyone yeah i said I'm dying. ah that hurts The words of a dying person.

Speaker: Right. It's on the tombstone of Kazuzu. Out at her. I'm dead. ah So, yeah, we're moving on to the next game here. um And it is much less confusing than the last game. Perfect.

Speaker: And it is called How Old Are They? How old are they? Yep. I don't even know how old I am at this point. I know. That's why it's such a fitting game. I'm so glad they came up with it. And everyone on this list is a horror villain.

Speaker: Okay. So better we go players will be given a horror villain and we'll have to guess their age closest without going over gets the point. That's pretty easy, right? Yeah, this is a go-to game. This is a game. It's pretty easy, right? I'm into it.

Speaker: Good game, Joey. Good game. Thanks. thanks We'll see how it goes. Alan. but Much better. than a Much better. Shout out to win. So the first ah first name that I have on my list here from the Hellraiser series of films is Pinhead.

Speaker: maybe we'll just go around the circle here. just How old are they? How old are they? Pean head? Yep. Closest without going over. Wasn't he some sort of fetish alien? he He wears some fetish gear.

Speaker: but i believe he's in hell. I don't know if he's an alien. I think he's like a... I'm pretty sure they're an He's a Cenobite. Cenobite? Yeah. Oh no, maybe from hell. I think he's from hell. Fetish being. Yeah.

Speaker: How old you think? anonical Canonical age, right? Not the age of the actor, the age of the villain themselves. The age of the character as as we speak in 2024. The age of the character in 2024. Seems like 300. 300? 300 is solid guess. Actually, changed mind.

Speaker: Oh, 600. 500. 400. 400. 400. And one. 401.

Speaker: ah but i changed my mind oh but ok

Speaker: six hundred five hundred four hundred four hundred four hundred four hundred and one four hundred and one Scubby your guy. 420.

Speaker: 420. Locked in. Final answer. Final final answer. Final answer. Okay. Jigsca. Ageless. Oh, okay. Trying to break this system here. I see. You're ageless. You still have an age. He's from hell. He has no age.

Speaker: But he's still been on and like as a being for a certain amount of time. I mean, that's some philosophy you're discussing right there. That's his time. I know.

Speaker: So, ageless. All right. Skabadook, what we got? Press the try rules. Yep. I'm going Wittle Baby 1. Wittle Baby Game game.

Speaker: yep I gotta say Widow Baby we do makes it. old 137 years This year, 2024, celebrated his birthday. Widow Baby. He's Widow Baby. Let's is. a hundred and thirty seven years old he just think this year twenty twenty four celebrate his hundred and thirty seventh birthday little baby just maybe you know right right um so it is So um my next one on the list is ah another. This is a heavy hitter. You guys will recognize Jason Voorhees of the Friday the 13th series.

Speaker: Kind of giving like regular middle-aged man kind of thing. Okay, but. Did he sign a comeback or something? Wasn't it the mom? I thought the mom. Spoiler alert. I'm pretty was the mom, right? I believe the mom was the killer in the first movie.

Speaker: Spoilers. Yeah. I mean, it's like 40 years old, so too bad. but I haven't got around to it. Jason?

Speaker: Well, okay. Like as of 2024? As 2024. What birthday did you celebrate this year? 2024. He's still alive, technically? I don't think Jason Voorhees has died. So what came out in the 80s?

Speaker: And he's probably, like, what, 30 in the 80s? So plus another 40. I guess he's about, like, 75. 75. You locked in. Final answer, Skabagaga? 75. 75. Jigska? Same. 60. seventy five you locked in final answers scalbb big gaga seventy five seventy five jigska say sixty a little bit younger.

Speaker: Just creeping up on getting that... Between 60 and 75 is my guess, technically. But yeah, 60. Okay. yeah And Scabadook? I'm not going to do the same thing again, but I truly believe younger than 60. Whoa, really?

Speaker: ah Okay. Let's just go like 48. forty eight Little baby one. oh okay. Oh, 48. Skabayaga. What? Me? You are correct. He is 78 years old. That was very close. I thought math was fucking good, motherfuckers. That was fucking solid logic.

Speaker: Fucking good. Double point if you get it right on. I hate math when I don't know the answer. i love math when I know the answer. I like this ah this added rule that Scabadook gave. If you get bang on, I'll give you an extra point.

Speaker: um Okay, so next next one is ah the other guy, Freddy Krueger from the Nightmare on Elm Street series. actually don't know what his deal is. So he got burned and then what?

Speaker: How did he get into people's dreams? He was a pedophile. He was a pedophile, got burned. Really? Yeah. Because he was just such pedophile? Because he was a piece of shit, yeah. So how did he get into people's dreams? that's side i That I'm not too sure.

Speaker: I think he's just so shitty. Just a weird pedophile in the 80s again. That was probably pretty similar. Did we end him at some point? Did he celebrate a birthday or has he died?

Speaker: ah He's still celebrating birthdays. He looks out in dreams. and Right. well Even though he was killed, we're still saying he's still alive. Yeah. see what you're saying.

Speaker: yeah yeah I feel like he's probably 40 in the eighty s I'm going to go 80. 80 is your final answer, Skabayaga? 79. Jigska?

Speaker: Wow. Unfortunately, nobody gets the point this time. How is he? He is 82. okay yeah okay kabadu ninety two

Speaker: wow but please tell mes between ninety and ninety one nobody gets the how does he he is eighty two just you were just barely over 70 i said 79 yeah she said 79 i said 79 oh sorry yeah i thought you said i thought you said 80 no my fucking is fucking on it yeah by like a couple years my yeah my bad sorry like yeah yeah i don't know if i accept your apology but at least you can fucking do is say i'm sorry but

Speaker: It's okay. It's canonical that Engineer Joey hates women and does not listen to them and hates when they win games. Sure. That's a true fact. That's the one thing I know. He'd make a hat or a shirt or something that says that. Engineer Joey's the true villain of this episode.

Speaker: We thought it be all these horror characters. On an episode with three serial killers, the real villain. ah he said We thought we knew how to torture people, but yet it's fucking engine of Joey with these games.

Speaker: Specifically engineered to torture us. Yeah. Man, it's like I was taking page out of Jigsaw's book. You're hanging out with Jigsaw too much. Yeah, you're giving a real Jigsaw energy this episode.

Speaker: All right. ah Next one. Pennywise, not the band, but the character from It. Tim Curry? Either or.

Speaker: Actually, they both... Are they both the same age? They're both technically the same age. Technically. Yeah, because it's from the book. Because of the Okay. Yeah. So the book was written... is that more closer to 70s?

Speaker: I believe so so. probably Clown. but again probably... Probably Clown. probably 25 30 years old actually don't know the story of pennywise when he's a clown and then he was like oh i'm sick of this shit i maybe terrorized kids but then wasn't there a child orgy i've never seen it um i've never uh maybe when i was a kid but i haven't seen the newer it either but that's that's okay you still got to make a guess right

Speaker: 83. Okay. 83. Jigsca, you have a guess for Pennywise from it? 87.

Speaker: You're of our lord. 87. All right. And Scabadook. Okay, so I feel like they've both gone too high. So I'm going back to the little baby Pennywise.

Speaker: One. Little baby Pennywise. One. So, sorry, you said 83? 83? 87. 87? And takes one. The actual age of Pennywise is... and widow baby panning like scottwate takes this one the actual age of pennywise is eight billion five hundred million two thousand sixteen what actually yeah he actually was but four the big ba and yeah is ah like an evil presence that started like when the universe did

Speaker: they actually a clown right that's just one of the forms yeah that's this is frame okay now i'm remembering so yeah all it's all created yeah that's pretty not to say that's too evil for me Yeah, that's crazy. That's a crazy amount of evil. That's evil as hell. might chicken out I expect to die eventually.

Speaker: Yeah. That's something Skabagaga is scared of. Right? Like, that's that's old. That's musty, man. That's as old as he gets? Yeah. Okay, so, next up.

Speaker: I thought the year of our lord was 1987.

Speaker: Nope. It's 8 billion and a half years ago apparently. Jigsaw's a fucking liar. Okay. Maybe this guy is a little closer to like y'all's thing, I guess.

Speaker: Because he's a serial killer. think I'm offended by that.

Speaker: Well, he's not like supernatural. You guys are all a little bit supernatural. Not Jigsaw. don't know. Anyway, he kills people. He kills people. Hannibal Lecter from Silence of the Lambs. How old is that guy? um Like today?

Speaker: Hannibal Lecter's birthday was today. how old would he be? And he's still alive? yeah Okay, so in the 90s, I guess, he was fucking, what, 50 or 45? Mm-hmm. So, know. They're all aging similar. Yeah.

Speaker: and for probably it's like billion years old one eighty eighty right He was literally a guy. Early 90s. Yep. it's like 2024, 30 years. don't fucking zero. 100 fucking zero.

Speaker: yeahp early ninety s yeahp and the or it's like twenty twenty four thirty years ah i don't fucking know like seventy fucking two it's seventy fucking two one hundred fucking zero yeah hundred fucking zero i 80. Scalbadook.

Speaker: You got this one. Nice. How is that? 91. He's just a regular dude being 91 in 2024. So it would have been closer to 60 in the 90s, I guess?

Speaker: Yeah, I guess so. and ah Plus, I think that movie was set like earlier than it actually came out. ah Because I think Manhunter is actually supposed to be in the 70s or something like that. a lot of I think for a game you're supposed to have researched.

Speaker: I researched their ages, not their lore. Okay. all I got one more. time I got one more of this one. The xenomorph from Alien.

Speaker: oh The Alien from Alien. Enough to be a mother, I guess. The first one. The first Alien movie. first alien Just the first Alien movie. Well, I do. I am friends with HR Geekers.

Speaker: I can tell. Who designed the xenomorph. Yes. Of course. Sounds like you guys are from the same city. Totally. Yes. We come from a similar region. His ancestry didn't move out to Alberta, but, you know, we we keep we kept in touch. R.I.P., man. Fucking R.I.P., I guess. i don't know. He's probably a weirdo.

Speaker: Really. You know, one of those f friends you about don't really want to know too much about. He made the xenomorph a little too sexy. and I mean, that was his whole thing. He was like, I want it to be scary, but kind of sexy.

Speaker: It's okay. like that microphone he made. How old that alien? Alien from Alien. In 2024, how that alien? How long does it take from the baby alien that comes out of the stomach? How long does take for that baby to get big? That is a good question and something that you would need to know to answer this question.

Speaker: The fuck? Oh yeah, it's Christmas. I've seen Christmas before. Well, I should be going back. This shit is creeping me out. I'm just gonna head back through that same door and... Oh no, is that blood coming from where I righteously slammed it open?

Speaker: Oh shit, I think there was a grown man elf shoes poking out from underneath. Ruh-roh. Scabadook really did it this time. Oh no! You... You killed him!

Speaker: I did? but yeah, I did. That's totally a thing I've done before. It's like my thing, little elf dude. Totally normal. But that was... Cool Christmas! Don't you mean Cool Kris Kringle? Listen, who asked you for a punch-up?

Speaker: My name's Elf. What's yours? Skabadook. Dr. Skabadook. Uh, Esquire. Yeah. Well, I guess it's official. You're gonna have to deliver all the toys. What was that? You don't know about the Santa slash Highlander clause?

Speaker: There can be only one. if you slay Santa Claus, you must become Santa Claus. No, i'm I don't want to be Santa. I don't want to do that. I i don't know. I'm not doing that. I don't want to do that.

Speaker: Even if it's for Jesus' birthday? How many damn times do have to explain that I don't give a fuck about no birthday? Well, it's not like you have a choice. All the other Santa wannabes are converging on this place as we speak.

Speaker: And they've just been waiting for a sign of weakness. Weak? I'll show them who's weak. I'm gonna deliver those presents so hard. The job's pretty straightforward. Although the work-life balance sucks and you won't be able to see your family ever again.

Speaker: but just

Speaker: Ho, ho, ho, ho, oh you must be gettingdding me what's so funny oh who ah family anyway let's grab this flying stay and hit the sky and by the way i'm going to crank the base on this bow

Speaker: Rattle, rattle, rattle, you will hear my woofers rattle. Sky-Badook came to battle with 311 in the saddle. Funky, funky mosaic with peanuts based down-o.

Speaker: Found it isn't basic, it's the heaviest shit I know. Ho, ho, ho. You best believe that no Skalloween has to pass your ass on by. S.A. raps and hexambooms getting super high. And more ways than one, get it?

Speaker: Wink. Whoa, Santa, you know how to handle your reindeer. Don't be gross, Elpf. Anyway, time to deliver the first present. Santa, what are you doing? I Kobe these AirPods in the chimney. What it look like I'm doing?

Speaker: Stop distracting me. Shut up. From downtown. We're going Sizzler. Whiteman can't jump. you I know you love that movie, Elf. No, I mean, you can't do that at all. You have to go in. That's... Wanna go for a ride, bitch? Oh, Who's this snappily stressed guy?

Speaker: I do like the cardigan. And the Santa hat. Hey, he's got a flying sleigh, too. Now that's convenient. Freddy Gruber! Yippee-ki-yay, bitch. Hey, watch it.

Speaker: This guy's trying to slice me the hell up. Evasive maneuver!

Speaker: Whoa, the fuck? That was a close one. Oh no, look over there! Hockey mask and a Santa hat? That's what I'm talking about. That is style. It's Jason Forty's! Ounces, that is.

Speaker: Watch out, he's coming right for us. Nah, I know fools like this. Check this shit out. so

Speaker: Whoa! You ducked in between them and they collided with each other! Yeah, now watch the magic happen. Hey! Watch where you're going, bitch. I'm trying to get some dark meat over here. Whoever wins, we all lose. No way, that's Alien vs. Predator. Different parody. Wow, you weren't kidding, though.

Speaker: They immediately are fighting with each other. Yeah, trust me, I know a thing or two about Scott's serial killer beef. Don't look now. Something wicked this way comes. Oh, hey, there's two of them on like a sleigh broomstick kind of thing.

Speaker: I know one of them. That's my good friend and dope, fresh, young, cool person, Skabayaga. But who's she with? Oh, no. That's Elskaba. Hell, yeah. Glad this podcast is topical.

Speaker: Perfect. Oh, hey, Skabadook. I'm Elskaba, wicked witch of the East Bay. Why are you staring like right next to the camera? You must never turn your back to the audience.

Speaker: So are you going to attack me too? No way, it's Yule. I mean, we are pagan. Your gross colonial holiday is offensive to us, so we're going to protest the big tree in New York.

Speaker: Some things I cannot change, but till I try, I'll never know. Oh, okay, that's cool. Don't let me stop you. Yeah, let the green girl go. I'll catch up with you, Azkaba.

Speaker: If I'm flying solo, at least I'm flying free. I don't know why she keeps talking that way. It's confusing. Bye! Now that they're gone, i think we're safe.

Speaker: Wait, do you hear that? Sounds like music that kind of sucks. Oh, no. Are you st- Oh, fuck. It can't be.

Speaker: You're an asshole, Scabadook. You really are like me. You're as friendly as Oasis. You're as charming as Morrissey, Scabadook.

Speaker: You're a Thor movie without Taika Waititi.

Speaker: You're a dickhead, Scarba Duke.

Speaker: Your brain is swollen solid. Your breath is total stank, Scarba Duke. I wouldn't stab you with a 69 and a half foot shank.

Speaker: You're a douchebag, Scarba Duke. You've never killed a soul. You have all the killer instinct of an American girl doll, Scobadook.

Speaker: Given the choice between the two of you, I'd kill Scobadook, of course I would. This is bullshit. Who let Jigsky get a song in my freaking special? I gotta to talk to my lawyer about this. This is libel, if not full on slander.

Speaker: Sup, Scabadook? Like my little tricycle sleigh? Hell no, it sucks. A nice Santa hat, by the way, Jigsky. You look like divorce wears wildo. I hear you're the new Santa.

Speaker: I wouldn't try and kill you like the others. Instead, I'd like to play a lethal game. I have to? i don't like your games. Your games are stupid. Santa slash Highlander Claus.

Speaker: Damn it, are you serious? I got a little riddle for you, like the Sphinx. Voiceless it cries, toothless it bites, mouthless it mutters. What am I?

Speaker: I know this one. It's from The Hobbit. It's The Wind. ha You fool. It's Arseface from the 1995 graphic novel Preacher. You know, he shot himself in the face to be like Kurt Cobain so his mouth was all messed up.

Speaker: Jeez, everyone knows that book. Who ever heard of The Hibot or whatever it is you just said? Oh no, that must mean you have to give up your post as Santa. Damn it, I am so tired of losing your stupid games. I just want to win one time. Why can't I ever beat your stupid games?

Speaker: who who Ho, ho. Mind if I cut in? Oh my god. It's Santa Claus. That's a terrible scot pun.

Speaker: Come on. I think you better take a hike, Jigsaw. Unless you want to see how it feels to be voiceless, toothless, and mouthless. Ho ho ho! I'm gonna make like a banana and blow this popsicle stand.

Speaker: Man, I hate to see him leave and I hate to see him go. That guy sucks. But Santa? Skanta? Uh, Skanta? How come you aren't dead? Are you serious? Uh, yeah, I killed you with a door.

Speaker: oh Ho, ho! First of all, you can't kill me without a McLeod sword! Santa slash Highlander Claus! Santa sla- Exactly. Fucking Canadians do my head in.

Speaker: Second, I'm not so weak that I get killed by a door. You didn't even bother to check. Yeah, I saw blood. Ew, it was gross. I mean, no, it was cool. I love seeing blood because I'm so used to killing people.

Speaker: Anyway, I saw blood. You know, everyone knows it. I didn't say it didn't hurt. That door is metal and has sharp edges. Third, you never killed anyone in your whole life. I killed Skazuzu, verified. Sure you did, dude.

Speaker: Yeah, so, uh, what now? Uh, we cool? Yeah, we cool. Now take a hike. Yeet! Ow, Scanner Claus kicked me. What the fuck? Scanner! Hey, screw you, Scanner Claus.

Speaker: oh.

Speaker: ah ah Oh my god, what a crazy dream oh I'm back in bed in my posh penthouse in Cleveland, Ohio. Summer home, baby. But what's this? A Christmas card?

Speaker: Let's read this here. Dear Scarbadook, a.k.a. Phil and Santa, you did an okay job. C-plus at best. And so here is your compensation.

Speaker: Now stay out of my way. Hugs and kisses, Scantaclaws. Oh, shit. A $25 gift card to Rainforest Cafe and Disney? This gift card is only good for Disney?

Speaker: Unbelievable. Everyone knows it's the best one. It's the perfect gift for me. And it still has $10.33 left on it. Best Christmas ever. Not even close best Christmas ever.
