Shadow Wolves September 2021

Hell yeah

I laughed so hard at this podcast that I already want to listen to it again. Pure joy. Thank you!

I’ve only enjoyed two Neil Gaiman books, one being the children/YA book The Graveyard Book, and the other his take on Marvel’s The Eternals with John Romona Jr.

When they Boyz are talking about The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad, and are just fanboying out, it is everything I wanted. I watched this last weekend with my fiancée and her 13 y/o daughter and they chuckled MAYBE a masculine of times. I’ve seen dozens of times, and I’m laughing like a crazy person. This movie works as well as it does because the main core are dramatic actors doing comedy, but ALL playing straight. That’s an incredible thing missing in most comedies these days- they’re too self-aware and not earnest enough.

Card Counter was TRASH. From the director of THE CANYONS, not the director of FIRST REFORMED

Did Gabrus post the photo of Big Jon anywhere?

Gabrus brought up his fondness for Ethan Hawke. Check out 'Predestination'. It's the best movie about being your own mom and son I've ever seen.

An interesting moment from my childhood was explaining to my mom why I wanted to see a movie called "The Naked Gun" when I was ten years old.

I thought Slow Getting Up was a good book about playing pro football.

So glad I rewatched this movie, loved it as a kid and it holds up, I maybe even like it better now.

Dracula: Dead and Loving It lives in my bones for some reason. “….but I’m British!” “So are theeese!”

My mom would definitely think less of me if I were to listen to an episode with her.

By the way...I faked every orgasm.

Pretty sure Brennaman was referring to Minneapolis with that slur. The Reds were playing the Royals during that broadcast and they had just finished a series with the Twins. Two prominent gay bars are within blocks of Target Field on Hennepin Avenue, and near several hotels. There’s also a predominantly black strip club on the corner, so at least he showed some restraint I guess.

One of my favorite jokes from the sequels, when Frank and Jane are at marriage counseling: “Hey, wasn’t I the one who wanted to adopt that 18 year old Korean girl?”

Absolutely have an ongoing note in my phone listing the approved seats and rows of my local theaters as to avoid shitty seats.

I work at Fox Sports on weekends and if its a NCAA or NFL game there are clean line feeds coming in where you get to hear the announcers chat during the commercial breaks and what not. Even when the announcers know they're not on air they know people are listening. The fact that Thom Brennaman would feel so comfortable to say anything remotely bad indicates to me he had to have been saying shit like that for a long time and lots of producers and randoms just looked the other way about it. This is all pretty obvious but any on air talent knows that they should assume that as long as they're mic'd up you're going to have a hot mic that could be going out to everyone. Now I've heard people like Terry Bradshaw tell maybe an off colored joke or some announcer mention an attractive woman but nothing that would rise to the level of immediate firing like Brennaman. I did hear Bradshaw say though and I don't know if this is true but he was saying off air that he made 500k for his appearance on The Masked Singer a couple years ago.

One more thing I love about that Reds announcer clip: when the home run happens, it lands in front of a sign that says, “Judgement Free Zone”. Sheer perfection

Shout out to the Vancouver Island waterdogs. Wonder why rodgers shouted us out.

I think The Wrong Guy from 1997 was probably the last best parody movie

How about an action boyz Amazon movie channel ?

Where are the Big Jon karate pics???

Anecdote about refs yelling strike and having their own hand motions/style: When I was a janitor, my supervisor was an NCAA baseball umpire as well. I asked him about it and sure enough they each put their own spin on calling ball, strike, safe, and out. His particular style of calling a strike was more like “STAAAAAAHCK” and outs were “PAHHHHW” along with aggressive gesturing. He said that was done so other umpires knew by ear who was making a call, helping them know if they should back up the call or disagree with it. Also alas Babylon is great, pretty much the first post nuclear apocalypse story

Flapper fucker and sad Canadians....TMI, true believers.

"So I'm mapping out the dome"

I’ve gotta recommend Angie Tribeca to fans of spoof heads out there

The Boyz need to write a parody action movie for the three of them to star in

I watched the directors' commentary on Airplane and the thing that always stuck with me is that they were so upset with Airplane 2 being made that they said they had never watched it.

My mom would be scared if I played her an ep.

Thinking about the Tarantino Luke Cage answer in the context of him initially wanting to play Pai Mei in the Kill Bill movies, and Danny Trejo's role in Once Upon A Time In Mexico.

The boyz are drowning in sad janitor calls on the phone line.

Stardust is great movie too, Deniro is in it I think the Boyz would love it (and Dr Frank Zales)

I was way too young for most of the humor but this is for sure one of the first movies I ever watched with my Dad.

I wonder if the ABz heard about the recent trend in the Mormon community called ‘soaking.’ Sure gives new life to the ‘you soaked her’ JCVD quote. Oh, and funny enough Castellanos, the guy who hit the homerun during the apology, would hit one during a eulogy a year later.

Alas, Babylon audiobook is read by Will Patton...

Frank pulled a Gil Renard

“In December 2020, it was announced that Brennaman would serve as a play-by-play announcer for the Roberto Clemente League in Puerto Rico for the 2020-21 season.”

Man, I had not rewatched this in way too long and agree 1000% with "this movie is in my bones". They don't make them like this anymore.

So Cincinnati shadow wolf here. Thom is the son of long time legendary broadcaster Marty Brenneman. He really had zero history of saying fucked up things before this.. And i think he basically does high school sports now if he does anything at all.

Shout out to such a great physical comedian, OJ Simpson... The man absolutely murdered that role!

😀
