Episode Transcript
Ben Silverio 0:05
Hey, I'm Ben Silverio.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 0:06
and I'm Rachel Granda Gluski
Ansel Burch 0:08
I'm Ansel Burch and it's time to party. This month's episodes on Kate and Leopold were recorded on April 30 2023. We are not doctors, we don't give medical advice. Please drink responsibly. Well, we are joined by mine very good friend and Ben's occasional friend. I'm assuming.
Probably going to cut that bit.
Ben Silverio 0:33
We're mortal enemies.
Ansel Burch 0:34
Yeah. They hate each other. It's amazing. We got them in the same room ever since the incident?
Rachel Granda-Gluski 0:38
Are we in the same room? This is a podcast. They'll never know.
Ansel Burch 0:39
That's true.
Ansel Burch 0:43
Don't tell them we just recorded this asynchronously. Just cut it together. So it sounds like you had a conversation will be great. It'll be great. Really. I'm
Rachel Granda-Gluski 0:49
just talking to a wall.
Ansel Burch 0:52
But no, this is Rachel Granda-Gluski, my great friend. Today's bonus bloopers episode will feature an extended conversation from Episode Three. Why? Because there was just too much material that had to get cut out that was in fact quite edutaining
Ben Silverio 1:06
party people. Thank you for coming back to episode three of our I was gonna say deep dive but it's not a very deep dive at all. I'm gonna
Rachel Granda-Gluski 1:17
Shallow wade around.
Ben Silverio 1:19
I feel like it's even shallower than our normal.
Ansel Burch 1:22
This one might get deep. I don't know.
Ben Silverio 1:24
This is our puddle. Jump into Kate and Leopold.
Ansel Burch 1:27
Oh, yes. Yes. That
Ben Silverio 1:29
for the month. We're joined. As you know, if you've been listening to the podcast all month, we're joined by Rachel.
Ansel Burch 1:37
inimitable Rachel. Yep, I'm
Rachel Granda-Gluski 1:38
Yep, I'm here.
Ansel Burch 1:39
Yep. Present.
Ben Silverio 1:43
Yes, we gave you some excellent drinking and smoking rules. So you could rewatch the movie. We talked about the movie itself gave our review. Told you if it was worth your time or not. Yep, that's that's about how it goes.
Ansel Burch 2:00
And now isn't done. Subscribe. And now you're now here you are now. Here
Ben Silverio 2:04
you are. And we thank you for being here. For our third episode, edutainment. I did a hand gesture.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 2:15
But elegant.
Ansel Burch 2:18
Really? Yeah. But like
Ben Silverio 2:19
I when I did the hand gesture, I got stopped by a pile of DVDs. knock your beer. I mean, that's true. That would have been very bad. I've been
Ansel Burch 2:26
worse. I mean, it's a back so I mean, could have been better
Rachel Granda-Gluski 2:30
to do yoga in my living room. There's always like a cat or Oh, I thought you were gonna say well on the way
Ben Silverio 2:35
there. You're gonna say when you're trying to do yoga while drinking.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 2:39
Actually my yoga teacher did do a couple drunk yoga classes where she'd be like and then Upward Facing Dog and take a sip.
Ben Silverio 2:48
Nice. See? That's very relaxing.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 2:52
It is really hard to balance while drinking this fun challenge. Getting drunker as it goes along. It's getting even harder. And he's
Ansel Burch 3:00
straw. That sounds like a good time or one of those. Like a Camelback
Rachel Granda-Gluski 3:06
No, I need to just fill like a water bottle with alcohols is harder to spill today, but didn't want to get my style
Ben Silverio 3:13
sticky. Have you ever done yoga with the goats?
Rachel Granda-Gluski 3:17
My rant about how much I hate goats is too long for this book. I have some extent got some history.
Ansel Burch 3:23
Oh no.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 3:25
Cuz I used to ride horses and a lot of time on farms. Gotcha. And so against anyone who thinks goats are cute has never actually met a goat.
Ben Silverio 3:37
As someone who used to ride horses, what is your critique of Leopold's form,
Rachel Granda-Gluski 3:43
His form is great. However, it would be very, very difficult to ride a carriage horse because he's there'd be no saddle and there's like stuff in the way of where you normally sit. Um, so the horses used to be very, I thought it was really clever, though, that they use the blanket on the horse's back to hide the fact that there was a saddle. He's very obviously wearing a saddle. You can see the outline of it. But I thought it was very clever of them, especially like they did the same thing and Lord of the Rings, they just use a white saddle on Shadowfax and they hide it in Gandalf outfit. interests so you can kind of see it if you really look you can see that there is a white saddle that exactly matches his outfit. All right on that horse. Yes. Um, because riding bareback is very hard. Horses are fucking slippery.
Ansel Burch 4:40
There's a reason yeah, there's
Rachel Granda-Gluski 4:41
a reason why it's difficult is that it's a pretty like, it's an advanced skill. Especially they jump in one thing, jumping with two people on a horse would also be really hard. And mostly just riding tandem is also difficult and impractical. It's one of the things in books that I actually hate is when the whole like one horse trope I'm like you have never ridden a horse if you think that's sexy. You're either sitting pretty far behind the person because there's the back of the saddle in the way or you're sitting on the front pommel of the saddle. The horse puts its head down you're going off that thing like a damn slide. Like there's basically nothing keeping you there and you have either way parts that you're not supposed to sit on Jamya
Ansel Burch 5:32
either the horn or
Rachel Granda-Gluski 5:33
the either the horn or the pommel of it's an English saddle but like rattles I made several called your driven up. I thought you might know I remember the front is called the pommel. Yeah, there's
Ansel Burch 5:46
there's that ridge at the bad no there
Ben Silverio 5:48
anymore and the starboard Exactly
Ansel Burch 5:50
yeah.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 5:52
parts. The bow, truckle saddle,
Ansel Burch 5:55
brace beam,
Ben Silverio 5:57
I bet we're seeing a lot of words that our audience doesn't know.
Ansel Burch 6:00
I would hope so. If you know those words all canceled, that's
Rachel Granda-Gluski 6:07
that's what it is. Like even if you're using like a more like saddles are really designed for one person and there are designed to kind of help hold you in place. You don't actually want enough room for two people to sit in because then you'd slide all over the house. He has good form. I also liked that he buckles the horseback in for him. I think that was really cute. But yeah, just happen on a carriage horse and like riding off on it would actually be very difficult.
Ben Silverio 6:33
I like to know the Wolverine can hang on a horse if he needs to.
Ansel Burch 6:38
I feel like Hugh Jackman really, he learned something of horsemen and
Rachel Granda-Gluski 6:42
to horseback ride for this movie.
Ansel Burch 6:44
Oh, because Didn't you do another movie where he was on a horse? Like a Western anyway, doesn't matter. We're not talking about saddles. today. We actually are kinda
Ben Silverio 6:58
so sorry, Rachel. You can't talk about the Pussycats.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 7:04
I love Josie and the Pussycats. Oh, yeah, yes.
Ben Silverio 7:09
Those are actually screen used
Rachel Granda-Gluski 7:10
any at all. And I have bonded over how much we love that movie. It's a great movie. It's amazing.
Ansel Burch 7:16
Okay, next April Fool's. We got to get the two of you on to pretend there's time travel
Rachel Granda-Gluski 7:22
in Josie and there is a lot of gaslighting, and that'll be perfect.
Ansel Burch 7:26
Well, okay, so here's what I wanted to do originally, and it didn't really work out with Bring it on. But I what I wanted to do was have us imply the, like any logical inconsistencies or plot holes were the result of time travel. Like the only way that this guy got over here is time travel, or the only way that person knows that time travel?
Ben Silverio 7:50
Wait, but then Josie and the Pussycats? It would be the Eugene Levy as the time traveler. Yeah. Do you think so? Because he knows way more than he should know.
Ansel Burch 7:59
I mean, that makes sense.
Ben Silverio 8:01
I've been watching the reluctant traveler with Eugene Levy. And it's a gorgeous show cinematically, but also philosophically. It just makes me feel really good. It's a travel show. But Eugene Levy doesn't like to be there. Yeah. So like, they're making him do all these things that he normally wouldn't do. And he's just like, I guess I'll do it. And then he ends up loving it.
Ansel Burch 8:23
Did you see the interview ahead of time where he talked about that?
Ben Silverio 8:27
I saw a bunch of them. Which one? So somebody
Ansel Burch 8:29
I forget who was interviewing him, but he said, Yeah, okay, so they pitched me this idea. And I was like, No, I would hate that. That sounds terrible, please. No. And they were like, Oh, okay. Well, thanks so much for considering and have a nice day, and they hung up. And then they called him back like 20 minutes later. And he was like, actually, actually, that does sound that could be very entertaining. For everyone else. Yes. Let's do it.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 8:51
Myself. Entertainment.
Ben Silverio 8:55
He talks repeatedly in the episode that I just watched about the Maldives. How Canadian he is. So I assume he just accepted out of the politeness of his Canadian
Ansel Burch 9:05
crap. Did I actually say No, they've asked twice. I actually can't say no. Now.
Ben Silverio 9:10
I am a little surprised that he's only talked about his son once in the show. Like a longer conversation like he's mentioned that he has a son and a daughter but like, He only talks about working with Dan wants.
Ansel Burch 9:23
Oh, Dan Levy has his son. Yeah, okay.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 9:25
Does his daughter like also do show business or Yes, she's
Ben Silverio 9:28
also in shits Creek. Ah, she's Lila.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 9:31
I haven't never actually watched that show. You should watch it. Yeah, it's things that everyone tells me to watch. Sure. So hyped up at this point. I'm actually really anxious to watch what if I don't like it? What am I just went Oh, my friend. What
Ansel Burch 9:43
does that mean about me?
Ben Silverio 9:44
But like, unlike things like friends, or God, there's so many things. Game of Thrones like, Frazier's amazing. Oh Fraser and she years and wings are some of the best sitcoms politely disagree with you both. What don't
Rachel Granda-Gluski 10:06
you like about Frasier? Um, the misogyny
Ben Silverio 10:09
sure every every show back then had that
Rachel Granda-Gluski 10:12
no but like with Frasier, I think there are certain shows like friends and Frasier where you have to kind of have the nostalgia like you had to watch it when you were younger to still enjoy.
Ben Silverio 10:21
Did it really? Yeah, I watched in college.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 10:24
Oh man, so many like I tried to watch friends as an adult. Honestly, this show is terrible. Oh, so homophobic. Um, yeah. And then one of my old roommates dated a guy who was like obsessed with Fraser and I would occasionally come home and he would be watching it and I would like to catch a random episode and I was just like,
Ben Silverio 10:44
okay, but the thing about Fraser is that he always gets this come up, it's when he's wrong. He's outlandishly wrong and always gets the show.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 10:53
Maybe I also just kind of like maybe it's there's something about the fact that I think like Kelsey Grammer just kind of rubs me the wrong human being
Ben Silverio 11:00
that's fair, I
Rachel Granda-Gluski 11:01
definitely at a point in my life, where it's really hard for me to watch media that contains actors that I don't like as people. Like, it's why I'm not looking forward to next Guardians of the ghetto see movie at all is because I'm like, Pratt. I want to like it because I like Marvel. And I like the characters. But I at this point, I, like people can argue as much as they want about whatever bullshit separate the art from artists, I can't. So
Ben Silverio 11:31
this is a constant conversation I have with Dave about separating art from the artist. And it's like, for me, it's like a spectrum, right. So like, I know that Kelsey Grammer, the person is kind of shitty for being a Republican. But he has another thing, among other things, but like, he hasn't done anything like, so over the top terrible, that would make him a bad person. Right. As opposed to JK Rowling, you know, as the ultimate example, right?
Rachel Granda-Gluski 11:58
There's definitely a spectrum. Yeah, but
Ben Silverio 12:01
so like, I'm more willing to watch Frasier than I am rereading the Harry Potter, but yes, you know,
Rachel Granda-Gluski 12:07
I agree and like for but for me, I don't know. It's for me personally. And everyone's entitled to their own likes, I think. And the fact that some people are able to make that separation is honestly probably healthy for. I'm not saying my way of handling it. It's just that I've definitely, like hit this wall. Where once I hear a bunch of negative stuff about an actor, like anything with Jared Leto, and it is just ruined for
Ben Silverio 12:37
me. Yeah, like, with guardians, specifically, like, Yes, I also do not like Chris Pratt as a person anymore. But he's not like Jonathan majors, who actually had all that stuff come out about him. I've never watched.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 12:52
Go up and go. The same week.
Ben Silverio 12:56
Yeah. Wow. It was such a shame.
Ansel Burch 12:59
I will be very curious to see how that pans out, though. Because he's, I mean, he's still insisting that he's innocent. And like, Yeah, but he
Rachel Granda-Gluski 13:05
got dropped by his manager and his pee. Oh,
Ansel Burch 13:08
yeah. Yeah,
Rachel Granda-Gluski 13:09
that's a
Ansel Burch 13:10
that's a bad sign. They're
Ben Silverio 13:12
not gonna stand by him.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 13:13
If your PR team that you pay lots of money to and probably also has Marvel money. Can't figure out how to spin this in your favor.
Ansel Burch 13:21
You fucked up. Yeah, that's a good point. I don't know. I just I don't want I don't want Jonathan majors to be sullied. He was doing so well. I loved all the things he was in. He seemed so cool. Yeah.
Ben Silverio 13:35
I
Rachel Granda-Gluski 13:36
really wonder how they're going to move forward with him because they have to quickly
Ben Silverio 13:41
he's going to be in Loki. They're already done shooting. Yeah, it's pretty much done being edited right now.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 13:46
They would have to like deep fake someone else's face onto him like they did. Or do what what did they do for that weird zombie movie where they replaced somebody with Pignataro?
Ben Silverio 13:56
Well, he wasn't in that many scenes anyway, so they just, you know, just move around.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 14:00
Yeah. But if he's like the major player, and then like, what are they gonna do in the long run with that character? They're gonna
Ben Silverio 14:06
recap. I mean, it's got to be a Don
Ansel Burch 14:07
Cheadle situation. Yeah. I wonder if they'll just do that. Yeah, like, just replace them with somebody else on Kang the Conqueror from an alternate universe. That other guy. Wow, you
Rachel Granda-Gluski 14:18
look different and even need to say that it's from an alternate universe you just carry on?
Ansel Burch 14:22
I'm just saying like, it's for him. Specifically. There's such this convenience of like, there are 50
Rachel Granda-Gluski 14:27
billion. Yeah, you could say it's a it's a variant or something. Yeah.
Ben Silverio 14:32
The multiverse has made it infinitely easier to
Rachel Granda-Gluski 14:36
ask. Well, you saw how fast do you see how that's Disney got rid of the guy who was cast as David in the live action Lilo and Stitch? Oh, yeah, it was. Immediately they announced that he was cast like the next day. A bunch of stuff came out that he had made terrible racist remarks and he was replaced the following day. It was it was owned by Disney is like not joking around anymore. Sure, well I think with Marvel, we're gonna see the same thing where they're like,
Ben Silverio 15:05
Oh yeah, now that like Perlmutter is gone. They have like, no excuse to like, put up with that bullshit.
Ansel Burch 15:09
Sorry, Mr. Majors. You fucked up.
Ben Silverio 15:12
Yeah, right. It's not that hard to be a decent person. You know? I don't understand a lot of these people.
Ansel Burch 15:21
Okay, last thing before we start the episode, who would you recast as Kang?
Ben Silverio 15:25
Ah, that's so hard so
Rachel Granda-Gluski 15:27
hard, because honestly, I would like to see someone new again, like majors himself was fairly new. Yeah, he's done a handful of things. He'd really only the only like, big thing he'd kind of done was that Lovecraft Lovecraft show?
Ben Silverio 15:41
And he did that which was flicks. Oh, yeah. I hardly find
Rachel Granda-Gluski 15:45
Yeah. Um, so I don't I don't know.
Ben Silverio 15:53
Kevin Hart.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 15:58
Oh, boy. Oh, boy. Honestly, what's that? There's another guy who's in harder they fall who acts opposite him a lot. Who I don't think is already in Marvel. Who would who could do a very good like?
Ben Silverio 16:17
Oh, the Keith Stewart. Stanfield?
Rachel Granda-Gluski 16:19
Let me see his face. That guy? Yes. Because he was in what was it Judith in the black Messiah or something in the black Messiah?
Ben Silverio 16:32
He's Yeah, he wasn't. I was thinking of him last night. Thank you. I was thinking of him in sorry to bother you. Yeah, no, he's he's also in get out.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 16:41
Yeah, so I would someone like that could be great. Because he's just super super skilled. Like, he'd bring a lot of good energy to it. And I feel like he could play that kind of charming yet diabolical that we've seen from King so far. Slightly. omnipotent, yet dashing.
Ben Silverio 17:02
That could totally work. Oh, man.
Ansel Burch 17:05
I keep coming back to LeVar Burton, and I don't know why. He's a bit old now. Who cares? Kangas 1000s of years old. Right?
Ben Silverio 17:16
Yeah. And isn't levar? Like just slightly older?
Ansel Burch 17:18
Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Ben Silverio 17:20
I'm sorry. I love the
Ansel Burch 17:21
entire time. Right. I think just because he did such an amazing job and Picard this season.
Ben Silverio 17:28
Like God really hard is so good.
Ansel Burch 17:31
When you get to it, it will reward
Rachel Granda-Gluski 17:33
No, it has my bisexual awakening in it. So I need to go back for her. Have you? Have you watched any of it? No, we don't have any of the streaming services it's on Cerner haven't been able to check it out on anything.
Ansel Burch 17:47
They're all good. Season Three is
Ben Silverio 17:50
ridiculous. Season three is what everyone thought it was going to be.
Ansel Burch 17:53
It's well, more to the point. It's what we all actually wanted. Right? Like the other two seasons were good. But this is what we all wanted. Let's all let's just let's just call it what it is.
Ben Silverio 18:03
I did want slightly more of what happened in season one. Like I wanted it to connect more. Like I was saying before, like we didn't get I always want to call them L Ron and that's not it.
Ansel Burch 18:15
Eleanor Yeah.
Ben Silverio 18:18
Why do I want to call them L Ron?
Ansel Burch 18:20
Because it's a that's a better name. Janeway showed up at any point in it. She hasn't.
Ben Silverio 18:26
She gets mentioned. But she's into other shows. So okay.
Ansel Burch 18:29
Yeah. Yeah, I don't want to spoil too much for you. But there are there are some things that we will talk about when you've seen it.
Ben Silverio 18:37
All right. Alright. Girl Janeway. Now,
Ansel Burch 18:39
Janeway. Yes, yes, she should. Everybody's an admiral now.
Ben Silverio 18:44
What's his name? Oh, my God. Why am I blanking on his name? tuba. Harry.
Ansel Burch 18:50
Kim. Yeah, Harry. Kim is an ensign still, let's see. Forever.
Ben Silverio 18:54
He's not an admiral. Now. Not that guy. No, Tom Paris. Not an admiral. Probably not. But a plate.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 19:02
I feel like he's retired and
Ben Silverio 19:05
so there's another show on Paramount plots called lower decks, which takes place okay, so heard of it. I've never so good. Yeah, Tom Paris guest stars on an episode as a plate
Ansel Burch 19:20
which caused them to make Tom Paris plates you can now
Ben Silverio 19:23
get them. I kind of want one. I don't even like Tom Paris as a character but I want the plate for the lower decks.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 19:29
There's a Star Trek cookbook. Oh yeah. Dave has really I think Star Trek cookbook and it's organized not by like show or like race of creature but by characters. Oh, interesting. Like one of Tom Paris's delicacies is pizza. We like kind of shitty microwaves
Ben Silverio 19:53
go to the store, buy this brand.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 19:58
How to make a kind That was shitty, like personal. That isn't like a very flat crust. Or whatever you want to just remember, but yeah, a lot of the major characters have like their own. That's cool. Like sections about like what kind of foods they would. It's a very cute cookbook.
Ansel Burch 20:19
That makes sense. It's something that comes up in the show a lot.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 20:22
And I feel like if you focus too much on the like Alien foods, but they finally show you how to make like how to make a wrap does you know and like really like that and you're like, oh, that's what it is. But yeah, and like one of the recipes like Picard has like a tea Earl Grey hot recipe that's just squeezed out as deep a cup of Earl Grey tea. It's pretty it's pretty.
Ansel Burch 20:48
Hugh Grant recently did a how to make a cup of tea.
Ben Silverio 20:52
Things Hugh Grant, who ran out of fucks to give
Rachel Granda-Gluski 20:56
him all of his interviews during the like press tour for the Dungeons and Dragons movie exactly are bananas.
Ansel Burch 21:04
Yep. He just fully fully gave up.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 21:08
Like, I did this movie. I have no idea what it was about.
Ansel Burch 21:12
I said by other words,
Rachel Granda-Gluski 21:15
very handsome in it. And you can see Chris Pine sitting next to him like yeah,
Ben Silverio 21:23
Chris pines, just looking into his future. That's
Ansel Burch 21:27
Well, it's funny because he talks about like, I forget which actor he said, but it was somebody who worked with a lot in the late 90s 2000. It was Sandra Bullock who is Yeah, well, she's she's tried to make me tea many, many times. I've had to I had to stop her and I had to redress. Okay, you must take the tea and put it in the cup and then you must boil the water and and while it's still boiling, you must pour it over the tea bag, which just made it that much funnier when I saw the movie and he's the whole bit about the tea being way too hot. You are acting Well done, sir.
Ben Silverio 22:02
I just upgraded my copy of music and lyrics from full screen to widescreen. And I'm like, I could use more Hugh Grant in my life right now.
Ansel Burch 22:14
charming fellow.
Ben Silverio 22:17
So it's Mickey Mouse soon, right?
Ansel Burch 22:19
Probably not never know. I mean, like, you know, the shenanigans. They're pulling that
Ben Silverio 22:23
oh, oh, that's right. They're trying to pull some shit. They put him
Ansel Burch 22:27
in the logo. So the logo for Walt Disney Animation is now the first like however many frames of Steamboat Willie. Oh, yeah. And logos do not have an end of life. Ah,
Rachel Granda-Gluski 22:44
I'm just really exciting that they're suing Ron DeSantis.
Ansel Burch 22:46
I mean, yeah, but I don't I don't need them to win, but I need Ron DeSantis to lose.
Ben Silverio 22:53
Do you see that onion headline that was like goofy beats Rhonda Brandis with a crowbar?
Ansel Burch 23:00
That's very good.
Ben Silverio 23:02
Goofy holding a bloody crowbar?
Rachel Granda-Gluski 23:05
Here for it. I don't normally like rooting for greatest capitalistic. I know right? It feels of our of our generation, but in this specific situation. I will refer them
Ben Silverio 23:20
I mean, you're a big Disney fan, right?
Rachel Granda-Gluski 23:22
I am but I also understand they're evil. Sure.
Ben Silverio 23:26
Evil is such a strong word. Is it though? Is it why
Rachel Granda-Gluski 23:32
they bring so much joy and so much pain? It's
Ben Silverio 23:35
true that does Are
Ansel Burch 23:37
you evil by your intention or by your acts? And are is does your totality affect by your parts?
Rachel Granda-Gluski 23:44
They have managed to have Disney manages to have no fly zones in the US over their parks?
Ansel Burch 23:54
You know, no. You know no one has ever died at Disney officially speaking they have to take them outside. They take them outside before they declare them dead. That's actually which is entirely dystopian shit. Like no no you you may have died on the Matterhorn but you died
Rachel Granda-Gluski 24:11
over there that's actually not entirely true is it? No Yeah, it's just a myth. Oh man. There are people I've definitively bought the date on died I think but they do try like okay if they can manage very difficult for you to die on site including they also don't want dead people there because so many people try to spread ashes to Disney
Ansel Burch 24:34
and they like it. I've definitely heard the stories about how many times they have to shut down the haunted mansion
Rachel Granda-Gluski 24:39
that down the rides vacuum you up throw you in the trash that is all that will happen to people's ashes if you try this
Ben Silverio 24:46
that's why you either a spread a small amount or be spread it in the the greenery outside so that you're part of the dirt. Yeah,
Rachel Granda-Gluski 24:58
you kind of have to not spread it. On the right, those are more heavily monitored than you think they are.
Ben Silverio 25:06
Have you seen the documentary I always fuck up to new, we almost
Ansel Burch 25:12
started an episode without a digression.
Ben Silverio 25:18
Just now, never happened. Um, I just sent this documentary to a friend because I was recommending it remain seated, please. a hoot and chief story. So it's about these two friends who go on to the horizons ride. And basically, they figured out a spot in the ride where there's no camera, so you can get off. And they would like explore the ride and like, catalogue it by taking pictures and stuff. And they would do this for years. And really, the documentary is about friendship. And it made me very sad, but it's very good.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 25:58
How mildly scarred with the time we got trapped on the cars ride.
Ben Silverio 26:02
Oh, yeah. So first, where did you get stuck on the ride?
Rachel Granda-Gluski 26:06
So in that you've written the cars right at Disneyland. When we're inside it was right after like, Mater comes at you with the big bowl tractors. And the cars like right about speed up. The ride broke down. Oh, and so we're sitting there and it's me and my friend and a couple of people in the backseat of the car and we're just hanging out and we're in the dark. And so, you know, everything's kind of frozen in place. It's dark. Just sitting there. We don't know what's happening. We're like, are we gonna go 20 minutes later they decide to let us know that it's broken down by turning on all the lights that really shatters the it really does. You want to have the magic of Disney land just destroyed in a second be on one of the rides when they turn on the lights on.
Ben Silverio 27:00
Alternatively,
Ansel Burch 27:01
I like it for a reason. I'm guessing Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 27:03
Everything is painted to only be viewed in the dark.
Ben Silverio 27:06
Alternatively, I enjoy watching videos of Halloween Horror night mazes, with the lights on because I like seeing all the mechanics of stuff that go into the you know, the scares and everything. So I think that's kind of fun. But like when you're on the ride, it's it's definitely does kill a little bit except when you're on it's a small world because when it breaks down, it all keeps going. You just keep heroes
Rachel Granda-Gluski 27:33
when we got at Disney World We also got trapped for a little while on the Finding Nemo ride and we just got stuck watching the same clip a Dory just
Ben Silverio 27:47
on repeat just that's all you got to do.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 27:51
15 minutes it's pretty impressive. She had about about 10 minutes of stuff. Oh, all wrapped and then finally started to repeat. And then we started moving and we're like oh man
Ben Silverio 28:05
see, I love that stuff about Disney. You know, I love seeing how how prepared they are for stuff like that. You know like with Fantasmic when the dragon breaks down, they have an effect on the mist as like the be dragon you know? Because recently maliciously caught on fire. So Oh no. Yeah, it's bad. It was real bad. Like it was blowing up bad. So in the show's after that, they had to use the the mist effect, which isn't as cool, but you know, still good dragon blowing up.
Ansel Burch 28:42
Everyone will understand. Yeah,
Rachel Granda-Gluski 28:44
Ryan should understand dragons playing it.
Ben Silverio 28:46
Yes. But I remind me later to send you a link to remain seated. Please. There are actually two really good Disney documentaries on YouTube. Because I mean, there's a ton of great theme park people on YouTube, right? Yeah. But there's another one from defunct land about the Disney Channel jingle.
Ansel Burch 29:06
Oh, yeah.
Ben Silverio 29:09
So defunct land wanted to find out who wrote that music and he had to go through this whole long thing of trying to find out. But it's really about like, an artist's relationship to their art. And when you feel like a real artist, it really hit me hard. Like I wasn't expecting and I was just like, Yeah, this dude did the song. But it wasn't that simple. And it turned out to be a really compelling documentary.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 29:33
Do you know that the woman who designed the monster from the Black Lagoon got her animation start working for Disney. Oh, yeah. Was an inker. Okay, it's
Ben Silverio 29:42
a really good
Rachel Granda-Gluski 29:44
book is really good. Yeah, there's a like mem memory history nonfiction ebook. It's a biography biography, called the lady from the Black Lagoon. Oh, cool. It's all about the woman who actually created it and get any credit because men
Ben Silverio 30:02
patriarch, yeah, right.
Ansel Burch 30:04
But yeah, she was the one of the animators that was mostly responsible for Chernabog and taking it back to Fantasia and the butts
Rachel Granda-Gluski 30:12
you never see them. Although you do skeleton butts you do back of pelvises,
Ansel Burch 30:19
you know, you know Chernabog has real cake.
Rachel Granda-Gluski 30:22
Oh, yeah, definitely.
Ben Silverio 30:24
