Summary
Cinephobe Ep 303 analyzes the 1995 buddy comedy Tommy Boy, featuring Chris Farley and David Spade as mismatched salesmen trying to save a family auto parts business. The hosts discuss the film's physical comedy, quotable moments, and lasting cultural impact on 90s white male humor, while debating whether it holds up as genuinely funny versus nostalgic.
Insights
- Tommy Boy became a cultural touchstone for 90s white male comedy through repeated quotation and audio file sharing, establishing catchphrases and speech patterns that persisted for decades
- Chris Farley's commitment to physical stunts and self-directed comedy (27 cappuccinos daily, performing his own falls) created memorable moments that transcend script quality
- The film's success in home video sales ($100M+) and audience ratings (90% vs 40% critic score) demonstrates a significant gap between critical reception and popular appeal for broad comedies
- SNL-to-film pipeline created recycled sketch material and relied on existing performer chemistry rather than original screenwriting, with uncredited rewrites happening during production
- Tension between Farley and Spade during filming (physical altercations, refusing to communicate) paradoxically produced strong on-screen chemistry that audiences connected with

During my time in prison, I discovered a podcast called Risk. That podcast saved my life so many times. People say risk makes them feel less alone and more alive. Live your authentic truth, because you never know who may come to your funeral and turn that bitch out. Risk. Wherever you get your podcast. This podcast contains mature content, explicit language, suggestive situations, and partial to full frontal nudity. Listener discretion is advised. Don't let your kids listen to this. Kevin James soloed me at the Super Bowl. Yeah. Dude. I popped. He's so ass off in this character. I used to think Blart's perfect for it. This is the one. Yeah. This is the character. Sad left at the alter, man. Mm-hmm. He looks so sad. He was at the Super Bowl. He does? He was sad at the Super Bowl. You just put him in ill-fitting tucks? Like his wedding was supposed to be at halftime. Oh my God, if Bad Bunny had done that, some viral marketing for Solo Mio, I would have lost it. I thought you already did. I would have paid for as many bots as it would take to take down that score. You could just like the movie, you know? You know, it doesn't have to be a Cinephobe movie. Mm-hmm. It has to be a Cinephobe movie. He doesn't enjoy it unless he shares it with all of us. Your pics have been horrible, man. It's the point. It's the point of the show. Isn't it? Isn't it? It's possible. I don't understand what this podcast is about. Poppy Cork. The fuckhouse. On a weekly basis, we are consuming more concentrated bad movies. There's probably anybody in the history of mankind. Poppy Cork. What story? What story? What are you talking about? Do you want lunch? I have yet to laugh in this movie. I'll just tell you that. You picked this motherfucker. Just remember that. You know what the problem with Hollywood is? They make shit. Unbelievable. Unremarkable. Shit. I was legitimately offended. You were offended? I was offended. I didn't know you could get offended. I was offended. This did it. If I were gay, I wouldn't be offended. They're fucking making shit up, I mean. Inconsequential detail after inconsequential detail after inconsequential detail. Please don't lie. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. I'm holding a mic in my hands and now I'm talking all over. Welcome to CineFobe, the podcast. We break down the movies you're afraid to meet your love. I'm Zach Harper. That's Amin Alhazam. That's Anthony Mays. I still don't care where you listen to it. If you don't listen to this podcast, we were going to make you sell auto parts that you're ill equipped to sell and you're going to get fired. And the company's going to go under. And it's going to be all your fault with that. Spotify is where you can vote in the poll. Like the poll for Playdate, 73.5% phoed, 26.5% phoed. For Playdate, 73.5% phoed, 26.5% file. It is kind of a shocker. Spotify is also where you can leave a comment. Like Richard, who said, was listening to this on headphones that work in my small office of seven people. My headphones disconnected. And when I went to hit play, my phone blared maze yelling, Mom went, tits up! Before I was able to pause it again. Enter, return, space, pho. Wow. All because you don't know how to work headphones. And then AO commented, does anyone else read Zach's stuff for the athletic? And in their head say, Zach Harper here before reading. This is Zach Harper writing. I'll share a comment that I don't know that I responded to. I'm pretty sure it's like an avid listener. And so, you know, I appreciate the support of whatever qualifier needs to be out there, but this bothered me. The show is called Deals and Dunks. And he said, do you all the time want to say what kind of a deal? I was like, no, cause I'm at work and I can separate my work from this podcast. What does that make this podcast to you? Cause unfortunately this is my job. Yeah. Yeah. I will lie that it's kind of funny. It's like, I'm Zach. Hey, Zach Harper here. Mark's done. And what kind of a dunk? You know what I think about Senefoam stuff when we do Senefoam. And then we had the Dean 87.03 comment. Wait, did Paul Blart not fall fatly at all in this movie? Not once, right? I fully expected to hear the Alicia Keys drop multiple times this episode. And I said, he gets sacked fatly once. I believe that's the only time he hits the deck in this movie. Is he going to do things fatly or is the other dude going to do things buffly? It was buffly, buffly one by a mile. But I'm going to tell you what, the originator today of doing things fatly. Oh, this is the king. This is the goat. What does that make Paul Blart like a kick ass Duke? The Duke kick ass Duke. You like it too? To America's I mean, that's a tenacious D reference.

We started this new century with crossover for episode 300 and then we trusted Pluto TV to guide us to whatever options we have next. Pluto TV took us from crossover to senseless by reminding us that any smart cookie could get an acceptance letter as long as you don't ask questions about what that means for your future because your friend literally can't add 125 plus 35 plus whatever a headband costs. Then it took us from senseless to Dickie Roberts, former child star, because really the only way we'd become a Wall Street big shot because our dad wasn't leaving us a bank to run. And that meant we had to inject drugs into our ass and to enhance our senses. Well, our pin cushion Canadian roommate refused to jack it and we couldn't even follow the right doses. So we just had to have a third act of recycling the same jokes we always do. And from Dickie Roberts, former child star Pluto TV has suggested the 1995 buddy comedy quest slapstick urban adventure adventure comedy Tommy boy. I like quest, but buddy comedy was all I had. I thought you phobed the quest. I like quest as a genre and I didn't. Oh, you didn't? That was a green sweep. That was a sweep man. Oh wow. Yeah man. Oh, hold on. Petty thief Chris Duvall. No, no, no, no, no, no, we got a lot of these where what it should be a sweep and it's not. And you know who that is. I agree. Yeah. Every time you file like Kevin James movie, that has never been that often. Tommy boy stars Chris Farley, David Spade and Brian Dennehy Farley. Now a four time repeat offender with airheads, almost heroes and dirty work as previous episodes. I wish I knew how to quit you. He had airheads in 94, Billy Madison and this movie 95 and black sheep in 96. I flirted with calling him Chris fat Lee, but no, he's just Farley. Spade goes back to back to back for his sixth movie, but he's a seven time repeat offender for Dicky Roberts. Fuck me running senseless spade TV grown ups to Jack and Jill grandma's boy and I saw him at dinner in January. I wish I knew how to quit you spade is spade and I'm done with spade movies man. No, we'll see. We don't know where this is going. No, no, we can't do anymore. I don't know what it's going to be suggested. Good for you. Con is spade is spade. Oh, Brian Dennehy, you know from summer catch and first blood. I call Brian Dennehy Bobby Knight. What? Remember he played Bobby Knight in that made for TV movie? That's right. He did. Yeah. Remember when he was coaching Texas tech and they did the ESPN walk on reality show? Yeah. You remember that? Oh my God. Great. I couldn't get enough. It's still running today. And I realized that I think of him and Brian Cox as kind of the same guy. Interesting. Older white guy who's angry. Yeah. Before succession, you could have convinced me that Brian Dennehy was in Brian Cox parts and vice versa. Yeah. I think that's offensive. He's the cop in first blood, though. Zach, you're right. Yeah. He's the main share of the corrupt chief of police who won't stop fucking with Rambo for some reason and has David Caruso hold his elbow. I'll never get over that. Bo Derek from Tarzan, the eight man. Oh, wasn't she in 10? She's in 10 with the white dreadlocks. Yep. I called her 10 famously running down the beach. She's originated her that and she's also a repeat offender for master of disguise. I wish I knew how to quit you. Dan Ackroyd's third appearance with nothing but trouble and spies like us as previous offenses. I wish I knew how to quit you. Ray from Ghostbusters, sneakers, chaplain, coneheads, north and exit to Eden. Julie Warner from Flatliners and Doc Hollywood. The love interest. Oh, and 49 episodes of family law. I thought you were going to call her the bee shipping manager or whatever the bee accountant or whatever her role is at the company. Bee? Yeah. Like a Vz. D movie. Sean McCann from the Arab there. Future Cynophobe. Four time repeat offender. Zach Grenier from Shaft, swordfish and fantastic for rise of the silver surfer. I wish I knew how to quit you. Cliffhanger and twister in the nineties as well. Philip Williams, repeat offender for Jason X. John Farley, repeat offender for almost heroes, waterboy, Jack and Jill, Dickie Roberts, hangar on. Kevin Farley, dirty work, Dickie Roberts, waterboy, etc. Another hanger on Rob Lowe, repeat offender for the invention of lying. I wish I knew how to quit you. Who's uncredited apparently. Yeah, it's in the trivia. Also the nineties was a tough decade for Rob Lowe. He had Wayne's World. He had this movie. He had contacting and Austin Powers to if it wasn't for SNL people, he might have washed away. He had some issues. He had a bad time. Oh my gosh. Well, no, you remember what he did? No, I don't. It's drugs, right? No, it wasn't drugs. I would say who among us was some bad. Yep. Yeah. A little underage. Jackson. No, I believe he had sex with like a 16 year old or sex tape. Sex tape. I mean, it was a teenager in 1988. Lowe was 24 years old, involved in a sex channel, videotape of him having sex with two people, one of whom was 22 and other her 16 year old friend. Yeah. The night before the 1988 Democratic Convention, because nothing gets people riled up. Hey man, democracy. This next sentence as the age of consent in Georgia was 14 at the time. What? That's too young. In 1995, it was raised to 16. Jesus Christ. Both were of legal age to engage in sexual activity, but 18 was the legal age to be involved in such a recording. Wow. Tough one. So again, not a who among us. But that was the 80s. It was the 80s. It's a good point. Jessica Gibson Lowe's 24 year old former Nanny made 12 allegations against Lowe, involving sexual harassment claims and labor code violations. I didn't know about that. Let's get out of the Rob Lowe Wikipedia. We also had dove Tiefenbach from Jason X and he was the stoner from Harold and Kumar. I guess I should clarify. He was a stoner, the one in Harold and Kumar go to White Castle. He was the one. And then Robert K. Weiss from nothing but trouble. I wish I knew how to quit you. Tommy boy was directed by Peter Segal. Segal Peter directed naked gun 33 and a third nutty professor to anger management. 51st dates. The longest yard, get smart and crutch match. Weird career. And then we've got two writing credits on this one. Terry and Bonnie Turner. They wrote Wayne's world cone heads, Wayne's world to the Brady bunch movie and created both that 70s show and third rock from the sun. They did well. Pretty good for a married couple who worked at SNL. Which one do you think did all the work? We guess Bonnie one was coasting, right? Yeah. Terry was coasting. Bonnie did the work. Is Terry the dude or the woman? You think Bonnie is a man's name? Yeah, man. Was it short for Bernard? Bernard. Bonaventure Turner. Bondrew. I was thinking about this. Is Lord Michael's a great GM, but an awful coach? Where does he direct it? Well, I guess technically Saturday night live, even though he's not directing, he's making all the decisions. That's what he was saying. He was a GM then. I think he's a great GM in terms of recognizing talent. Yes. But his name is slapped on a ton of shit that is fucking awful. But I don't know that that's him. I think if you're saying coach, like director, he doesn't do that. But if you're saying coach, people still go to him for advice. His talent tree still comes back to him. And so maybe it's this, maybe it's great talent evaluator, terrible hire of coaches. I put him a director of scouting. I don't know how much control he has over the movies. I think he's just getting a piece of it. I think him getting somebody that had a sketch, a movie is a great deal for him. And he doesn't give a shit if it does well or not. Got you. It's not his responsibility. He's getting the cut no matter what. He runs SNL. If he gets you a movie, he's done his job. Yeah. Right. Then he's hands off. He's not on set. So you're just saying, listen, literally you got to kick back to the man that gave you this opportunity. That's right. He's the mafia for every ladies man. There's an Austin Powers to America's or Wayne's world. He's getting no synopsis for Tommy boy after his auto parts. Tycoon father dies, the overweight underachieving son teams up with a snide accountant to try and save the family business. Sure. Tagline. If at first you don't succeed, lower your standards. No, not really. Me on a Friday night. Oh, $20 million estimated budget gross 32.6 million U.S. and worldwide, but I would imagine syndication VHS DVD sales through the roof about 5 million from Tom Haverstrow alone. That's right. Before we jump into this movie, you list the rest of this podcast. Tommy boy is available on Pluto TV. Tommy boy receives 40% on 48 critic reviews on rotten tomatoes, 90% from the audience on over 250,000 ratings. This has got to be one of the three most accepted movies by the audience. Right. It's the second highest combination rating behind the five heartbeats because that was crazy high for the audience. Five heartbeats was 95 and 39. So it was a 134 combo. This is a 130 combo. I mean, check the positive or the negative reviews. I'm a half CTE riddled brain kind of guy. Give me the positives. Hey, John, that's weird. That glass looks half folded me. Wow. Now that you mentioned it, it is half full. Daniel Solzman of Solzio the movie nobody calls you solzzi solzzi fucking fraud. Tommy boy isn't a great film by any means, but Chris Farley and David Spade put on one hell of a show together. Alison Rose of flick direct.com what's now flick what careful. Okay. What makes Tommy boy a comedy standout is the hilarious chemistry between Chris Farley and David Spade elevating it to a cult classic. Scott Weinberg of DVD talk.com. It's not high art. I found out that's Bill Hader. Oh, really? Did you guys know that? I didn't know that. That's Bill Hader. Yeah. Oh, shit. That's pretty good. That is really good. It's not high art, but it is pretty damn funny. And sometimes that's more than good enough. Ken Hankey of mountain express passively funny star vehicle. Nothing great. Brian Webster of Apollo guide. Repeat offender. He fought against. That's lazy. Dickie Roberts. Yeah. If you're expecting classic comedy, you likely won't enjoy Tommy boy. Okay. But if you have Saturday Night Live level expectations, it will be a pleasant surprise. That explains a lot. It takes you a very good review and then user Sam M five stars out of five. Sam Marneau. This movie did something rather remarkable. I've seen this movie many times, yet I still laugh at the same gags I've seen 50 times. It's crazy to me how much power this movie has over what I find funny. This movie is the pinnacle of comedy and cinema and always will be. Fuck you. No one can tell me otherwise. Fuck you. How about that? Okay. How's that for otherwise? Sam Maberstro. Yeah, for real. And then user Stone C five out of five stars. Stone cock. Stone cold. Stone killips. Stone cold cock. It's absolutely baffling how out of touch and way too serious professional critics are. Yeah. This is one of the funniest movies ever made and scene after scene is filled with Farley being hilarious. Oh, look, there's a cliff. Oh my God, we're burning alive. Here comes the meat wagon. That should be our tagline. It comes to the meat wagon for the podcast. That's our fan base. Negative reviews. Stop being a pessimist. This tank is not half full. It's half empty. Matt Brunson of Film Frenzy. Jalen Brunson. Jalen Rose. Derek Rose. Derek. There are a few scattered laughs tossed throughout, but they can't really stem the tide of idiotic gags involving Tommy screaming, getting hurt and or falling down. I couldn't fill up French of Observer. Mays do the voice. Oh, Peter Segal's dismal Tommy boy is the latest addition to Hollywood's cult of moron. It's only growing, man. Buckle up. It's not just going to be Hollywood. It's only a mean chug the Kool-Aid. Jeff Brown of the times, Farley and his sidekick David Spade hail from Saturday Night Live. But this low brow vehicle has none of the goofy charm that made Wayne's world a viable spin off. Yeah. John A. Nesbit of old school reviews. Norbit. Future Centipede. Yeah. Is that qualified? Does that qualify? Jesus Christ. Redo it as a 10 to 15 minute motivational tape as a seminar for business and salespeople. Karen James of New York Times. Ron James. The most peculiar aspect of the movie is that some of it is played straight. Only some of it, huh? And then Marjorie Baumgarten of Austin Chronicle. Lisa Baumgarten. This Tommy boy is no pinball wizard, but you may leave the theater wishing that the character were at least deaf, dumb and blind. What the fuck could have come up with such a clever review like that. Marjorie Baumgarten. Oops. We'll get a means first note, maze first note and my first note after these messages. Unless you are a Patreon subscriber, patreon.com slash count the things which could add free episode right meow. Amin, what is your first note? Accidentally selected the Spanish version. Maybe this will make it funny on Pluto TV. If you enter Tommy boy, the first one that comes up, there's nothing indicate that it's in Spanish. He clicked and the first couple of lines are in Spanish and I thought to myself, okay. Been a while since you've seen this. I realized for the close captioning, it wasn't saying speaks in Spanish. It was just Spanish. Like, I think this might be the wrong version. That also happened to me maze. What is your first note? Oh, okay. And the confusing part was that it wouldn't let you change the language. Yes. In the movie thought I could do that Spanish is the only option. See, I'm a little disappointed because I went in thinking, all right, let me get some Spanish on here. No, you didn't get Tomasito. No Tomasito. Yeah, no Tomo cop. Chico Tomo. None of that. My first note. I wasn't my first note, by the way. I called spade Dick rich in senseless. Then he played Dickie Roberts and now he's Richard. So let's call him Dick poor Dick month trying to decide whether that's an improvement or an erosion over the product that we are reviewing today. Not sure yet. You're gonna be buy yourself on that except for like the 50 people are like, Oh, I believe with everything he says and then the black people know plenty of black people like this movie. Never met anyone. I've met all of them. My first note. It's absurd. This won't be a file sweep because I mean has this grudge against the movie. We have to hope he accidentally makes a decision and then stubbornly sticks with it. Like when he phoned Harlem nights for no reason. Oh man, when you were telling the story last night, you had so much detail. The detail was so rich. It was rich. Going through incredibly descriptive details of the story so we are not. Oh, yes. Now it's time for the scenes. Here's what happened. Treehouse is a daisy chain. Oh, that's right. I don't think I've ever been in a treehouse. The houses aren't real. That's just a figment of Hollywood imagination. Nobody ever had a treehouse. They have one in the Simpsons of horror. Again, movies and TV shows. Young Farley comes down, goes to run inside the house, hits the glass door, bounced off and said son of a Tommy, hurry up. You're going to be late for school again. And that again carries all the exposition folks. This indicates this guy has problems or the first time I heard it. Oh, me. I don't have my maracas down. He's running from the house to the bus sprinklers, drops his history book, running through the bushes. Dog chases him. Is the kid in a fat suit or is the kid actually fat? I think it's just a husky kid. I feel like they made him wear layers to make him look a lot fatter than he is. I don't think it's that hard to find a fat kid as he's running and things are happening that he's get chased by a dog. He gives up his lunch and I said, Sean, asked him digging a pool. I knew that would be your, your note to the death. He missed the bus. He's running after it. Holy snikes. A young David spade is on the bike next to him calling him pathetic for being late again. Oh, is that young David spade? Yeah. They said Richard. No, I didn't even pay attention. Just thought of some asshole kid is Holy snikes 20 CB or is it specific to this movie? It's specific to this movie. Got it. Catch phrase because people would say that shit, but I don't know if it came from this. Oh yeah. Kids are on the bus yelling for him to hurry up. We disappear into the spog and now we're at current day. Farley Marquette University. By the way, the bus that sent dusky on it. I said, Oh, oh, bus full of children college year continues as barley is running through the quad of Marquette tries to run through a bush like in the childhood memory and he runs right into a fence that's being built callback head trauma. Is it to barley is dressed like nineties and still running into shit like when he was a kid somewhere among the cascades on campus, hoping Marquette Marquette legend in the mid nineties. Yeah. Scares another student as he runs past him slows down does a cool walk to say hi to two girls in the quad. Of course. He's got a side ache. He's out of gas. Doors locked and he's screaming. No, please God. No, no, he was pushing on a pole door. Go. No, the other door was unlocked woman easily opens the door and now he's taken a test as the teacher passes out test papers. Farley is panting heavily history 201 folks. This is an entry level history. This is sophomore level history. He's a senior though. He's a seventh year. Right. Maybe he needs this gen ed credit to graduate. You know, he's trying to run it down starts with a question. Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and blank or all framers of the Constitution blank Hancock. I've never felt more vindicated in dropping out of school. You didn't miss a thing. Didn't miss shit. That's a good institution. Allegedly. He looks confused. Gets a smug look and writes in herbie Hancock. Not only does he not know who John Hancock is. He doesn't know who Herbie Hancock is. He's heard the name. Yeah. Well, he thinks one is the other cut to the grades being posted. He got a D plus. He says, Oh my God. Yeah, I passed film noir. He went online and pulled up the grades on the website. No, no, no, no, no. They printed them out on a dot matrix printer. Oh, dot matrix. Okay. It prints and it lays in the tray and then you pick it up at the tray. Right. Nope. No, you got to tear it. Oh, you got to tear it. You got to tear off the borders. This isn't Hollywood magic. That's how motherfuckers have to find out their grades. Yeah. Or if you made a team or whatever. I don't know. But yeah, it's a public execution. Your shit was right up there with everybody else, man. He grabs a student. He's celebrating. He says, I wish we knew each other better. This is a little awkward. The cart wheels down the hallway in his market rugby jacket athleticism is a horseman. That's not a stuntman. No, that's him. He was actually very athletic. I was shocked because it's one shot. There is a car wheel. It's not him though. Party time at the frat house. He's doing a bong stand. He's upside down. Oh, that's how you do that. Guys, do I look different now that I'm a graduate? Not really. Apparently they give a lot fewer D pluses than D minuses. Not a grade they like to give out. I tell you that right now. They say, you mentioned that he has no idea what it'll do next for now. Probably go home, work at his dad's loading dock. Like he always does. Figure it out after that. And he loves all these guys. He pretends to kiss one of them. Yeah. Homophobia. He cheers is the best rugby guys. Best rugby freaks ever born. Weren't the smartest guys spent too much time puking off balconies, but they had fun. Tommy says this isn't the end. We're going to show this world a thing or two. We're going to show any face plants like a chop down tree physical comedy crushes the coffee table head trauma. Number three cut to Sandusky, Ohio. The plane lands and you got to walk down the staircase. The guy in front of a black guy walks out and immediately waves to someone. All right, extra. This is the part where you don't add lip because who's waiting for you. Absolutely. No one. There's only one person waiting. It's David Spade. So you extra fucked up the whole shot because you're trying to be too special. Fuck you. Play your part. It feels like you're being overly critical to try to fob this movie. Pretty tough to pick on that guy that yeah, I definitely didn't notice. Didn't notice at all. Pre briefcase guy because you guys. I don't see color. Don't notice black people. You beat me to it. Spade picks him up at the airport. Tommy thought his dad was meeting him. His dad was at the airport this morning, but you weren't on the plane. I get it. He's a fuck up in spades. The asshole. Tommy's dad has a surprise for him. Spade says he should have called. I did call earlier when using the phone earlier. When was that or later when then I left a message. A message. What number did you call? 249 or five six seven eight. I can't hear you. You're trailing off. And did I catch a nine or in there where you're calling from a wucky tucky? No, it was cordless. You know what? Don't not here. Not now. Did you hear I finally graduated? Yeah, just a shade under a decade too. All right. You know, a lot of people go to college for seven years. I know they're called doctors. Harley grabs his luggage, which is a garbage bag wrapped with tape. Did you have luggage spray that thing for bugs? I would be critical, but I've done the garbage bag. Oh, you have what? Didn't check it in, but definitely did the garbage bag carry on once. Oh, cut to them driving through town. The Goodman tires plan is shut down. Roast Middle America urban blight. This neighborhood's coming down with tooth to cash. It's called urban blight. I'll tell you something. It's bright new, you know. Disgusting. Rust belt, baby. This is what Cleveland looks like. Spade doesn't want him eating in the car. It's a rule. So he puts his bag of peanut M&Ms on the dashboard open. You hang on to a car this cherry. And I said I've never heard anyone use. Not true. We've done it before on Cinephobe. Someone use the word cherry. Nothing but trouble. Maybe it's a Dan Ackroyd thing. Maybe car jargon about the engine. Same. No, too. Richard doesn't keep up with the old gang from high school because he didn't like them. The muffler plant is gone. The car turns and the candy goes rolling into the dashboard. That sounds good. Melted chocolate inside the dash. That really ups resale value. I think you're going to be okay here. They have a thin candy shell. Surprise. You didn't know that. I think your brain has a thick candy shell. Your, your brain has the shell on it. Are you talking shit? I appreciate cut to Callahan auto parts. Big Tom doesn't want to hear from the bank about waiting things out in auto parts. You're either growing or you're dying. There ain't no third direction. Oh my God. This business walk and talks position. Yes. Masterclass man. They open the doors. He's holding court. Incredible. God doesn't want him to take out a huge loan. Maybe take on a partner, but big Tom insists this has always been a family firm as he walks past portraits of his grandfather, father and aunt. And though Chris Farley and someday my son will run it. Tommy pops up half doors, 20 C.V. I think it's industrial. Well, they had him in colleges at certain points. Did they? I was going to say auto specific. I feel like I remember seeing half doors to like an auto garage. I don't know. I've seen it at a community college before. Oh, are you talking about like a Jiffy loop? Yeah, that's not a community college. He's talking to me. I think are you sure or in tires. I feel like they have one in tires. Tires. Yeah, they do have one. He's talking to Mays here. Zach, are you here? Brian Denny, by the way, he doesn't seem to call ass off. Full nominal. Brian Denny does this and I think to myself, okay, let me give this movie a chance. Yeah, you should give the movie a chance. That's how every movie should go. You dumb fuck. We're ascertaining when I decided Tommy pops up. They laugh stomping around. They hug big Thomas proud of Mr. Big Time College grad. He's grabbing his cheeks. Oh, daddy. Mays. I called that the Haka dance. It's Sumo. You guys would know this. Have you lived in Japan like I do? That's right. You're still there. One of the suits had a kidney removed last April, but he still has the other one. Mr. Gilmore is from the bank. They're headed to the factory floor. Gilmore needs a reminder of why they do business. They put hard hats on. They get hit in the head without one of these. They scooped your brains out with a goddamn soup ladle. Guess who gets hit on the head without one of these when Tommy boy showed up big Tom had a bunch of papers and folders and shit and threw them all on the ground because he was so excited. And David spade us to scoop those up, run those figures by accounting. He already knows that he's supposed to do that. He says, my fellow nerds and I'll retire to the nerd re with our calculators starting to see why this is Tom Hoverstone's favorite movie. Now I know you don't like Tommy boy. You don't like David spade. It's pretty good in this movie. This is SNL David spade. This is not a Sandler movie. David spade. I didn't like SNL David spade. You don't like SNL period. Very rare. Little flashes, little things here and there. You love the way ins brothers. They're funny. On to the floor. They duck under a forklift. Tommy runs into it. Oh, forklift. Who could have seen that coming? Head trauma number four. Everyone's happy to see him. He wants to try using the buffer. It was flying off CGI's. We built this filter. Oh, it went wrong. Oh, wow. Okay. To the new break pad division and the future of Callahan auto parts are the Rolls Royce of break pads. Tommy, this is awesome. He pushes the button. A big crane hook starts moving one after another. He's dodging them like a fighter. What kind of fighter some boxing in there. There's maybe some karate. Yeah. There's some interesting noises that he's making. Yes. Oh, thank you. That doesn't help it. Highlights it. Well, he is training for Beverly Hills, Ninja, Future Sinfo. Big Tom needs capital for new material and workforce. Tommy's talking about cat like speed and reflexes and he takes a hook to the face. Head trauma number five. Oh, see, I thought this one was fake. Well, he's ass off hitting his head on shit. Yeah. And he's always throwing his head back performatively. So it's hard to tell the hair helps like you know, when do you know we had the floppy hair? Oh yeah. Oh, maybe this is why you don't like him. You have a bad association with floppy hair. Yes, it's the hair that's bothering me. Not the way everybody looks at Tommy. I was checking the specs on the end line for the rotary girder. He gives up and she officially says, what does he admit to guys that he's a bingo. The train is late. Thank you. Big Tom loves it though. He's giving him a surprise. Tommy asked if he can open his eyes yet. I didn't tell you to close them in the first place. I left. Walks him to an office with his name on it. That's my name. I'm from Indiana. Same. Don't tell you. That's your office now. College grad. Good old fashioned nepotism, baby. Yep. He loves the fridge. Can put six packs of soda in there. Milk, yogurt, candy bar in the freezer. It's a little ass fridge. 20 CB mini fridge, man. You put a six pack in it. There's nothing else going in that fridge, but he gets excited for it. So you know that's a good one. Richard needs his John Hancock on some papers. It's herbie Hancock. Call back. Yeah. Rags about his office. Spade is bitter about him having a window. Why shouldn't he? He's been here 10 minutes. Big Tom plops some catalogs on Tommy's desk who's distracted by a business card. Tells Dick Port a promise to look after Tommy boy here. He said it. He said it. An unexpected horseman. Spade says, sure. And thanks for choosing me with real pain behind his eyes. Big Tom has another surprise. My note said, ah, then he said it. Tommy boy not. I wasn't a mood when I watched. No way. No shit. Can't tell it all. He's reading the catalog. So it's called reading top to bottom left right group of words together as a sentence. Take title for any headaches. I said, Oh, mine all for any cramps. Shut up. Cut to Rob low with terrible hair. Oh yeah. Get it off the bus. This bothered me so much. His hair in this movie leather jacket, drinking a carton of chocolate milk. 20 CB. There's a kid making faces on the bus. He hits the glass window behind him, crumples up the empty carton and tosses it into a baby stroller going by. I think he's a bad guy. Cut to the Callahan estate. Big Tom brings Tommy outside. Can I uncover my eyes now? Daddy says, for God's sakes, quick covering your eyes. I laughed eyes wide and holy snikes. It's Bo Derek getting out of the pool. Popo's coming out the water. He says, is that for me? Brian Denny says, no, son, that's for me. That's all it reminded me of dude or is my car. I want to go on that ride, daddy. Me too, son. Me too. Oh man, dad. She's like a 10 reference. She's Beverly calls him adorable. Big Thomas asked her to marry him. Tommy's excited. What'd she say? What do we cut to? And enough champagne to fill denial. How'd you guys meet? He said we met at a fat farm resort. 20 CB. Absolutely. Definitely under that nomenclature. They still exist. Would they have a new name or do they not exist at all? They're probably called health spas now, right? Yeah. And that'll cover if you have a mental health breakdown as well. All in one. They brought in the names so that anybody can go. It's a all inclusive. Now, once upon a time, that was a different place you went to. That's true. Mental health. You went to the funny farm. That's right. But it was always a farm. Who is a farm? I'm taking farm out of it. Funny farm is a fucking. That might even be 19 CP. That's so old. That's worse than fat far. So much worse. She was one of the trainers. Only one. He didn't want to plant six feet under a lettuce patch. That's the last time lettuce patch was used. Never. She's got a son who worked at the spa. He's coming to the wedding. Derek tells Tommy this will be his brother. I have a brother saved up to a notch. He's there. Tommy answers the door. Brother, I'm Paul. You must be Tommy. Brothers don't shake hands. Brothers got a hug. Picks him up by his waist and spins him around. The wedding is Saturday, by the way. They are not wasting any time with this shit. No exposition. May's clip in from American dad. Choplo, Roblo, Chad Lowe. Tommy and Paula going out. Can't believe he's got a new family. He says, no offense. But if I sent a picture of your mom to some of my buddies at school, she'd definitely be boner of the month. I have the hugest boner. Thank you. Is there anything to do in this town besides eat? Got him. I'm going to be honest. I'm going to stick up for Sandusky because I hate what people say. Oh, you're in here. I have something. What do you want to do? May's, please cut out Ohio. Yeah. Sorry. You walk right into that one, dude. I got it. Okay, cool. It's going in an intro. Got it. There's nothing to do. What do people want? You to be engaged. This is it? Me engaged? I'm not engaged right now. In an open-minded way. Well, you can't have it all. An op in-minded way? What do people want when they're like, oh, there's nothing to do this time? This piece of shit should not be in Sandusky. Well, he wants a dangerous night. Yeah. He wants sloppy steaks at Trophonies is what he wants, man. Chicken, spaghetti at Chickalini's. Well, can they go to Blue Dolphin? Blue Dolphin bird down rubber values out of his ass. Tons of stuff. Late night, pitch and putt, livestock auction and cruise the four H babes. Throw stuff off the bridge. What do you feel like doing? I said, Mr. Highway Rob wants more of a dangerous night. Sure. All you can handle, bro. Got to Tommy saying, look at all the pretty maids in a row. He wants the one on the left. She's perfect. Rob is brown bagging it. Guys, I don't think he's talking about women. Does it make a difference? Oh yeah. Wait a second. Is this your first time? It's cow tipping. Fill more. Get ready to live. Is cow tipping a real thing or is that also a figment of Hollywood imagination? It's a real thing. Okay. Yeah. Why are you? Well, I was going to say something. I was going to say, I usually leave the bar before you. But since she works there. Okay. He's going to do it. What put the shoulder in and pushing. He's basically in a football style stance. He slips in the mud. It's stepped on. The cows are on the move. He's in mud face. Head trauma. Number six. I mean, a cow stepped on his head. I don't think that's, I think you're dead. You don't bounce back. Holy snikes. Son of a, I thought holy snikes would be a horseman. It actually slows down. I think catchphrase is a horseman. Right. Cause he's got a couple farmer comes out with a gun, get off my property, cows are stamped. They run off Rob false and Tommy's dragging him away and says, I love you. Cut to Rob Lowe hosing off his shoes at the gas station. And he said, these are Italian leather or whatever. I'm like, why'd you wear them? Bad guy? Why would your dad dangerous nights? They're worth more than your life. Tommy man. Did I get dushed with mud? Oh, doesn't smell like mud. Hosing them off. Tommy starts singing maniac from flash dance. He's hot stepping. Rob sprays them in the mouth to shut them up. Did you eat a lot of paint chips when you were a kid? Yeah. Why 20 CV paint chips, a hundred percent 20 CV because that was actually a thing in the 20 CV. The reason why it's not a thing now is because that generation is gone. It's coming back. They brought lead back at the Callahan the next day. And this is the scene that my freshman year roommate, you got to think about how old the shit is because video wasn't readily available like that snippets. The way it is now motherfuckers. I swear to God would have MP3 libraries of quotes. Oh yeah, for sure. Quotes from the Simpsons. Absolutely. Yeah. My roommate freshman year Scott Serban. And there's the last name. I don't know what the fuck is he had this shit on repeat. Look, I am your father. That's it. Burned into my brain. I thought you were going to get stuck with me at how hot the forklift driver was. I didn't see her. Wow. He really wasn't paying attention. Oh my God. She's way too hot to be working in San Dusky, Ohio. Oh my God. What is she? It was great. That's sick. Dick Porgo's duck on Tommy's door. He hears the sounds. He's so disappointed. Oh, I've interrupted happy time. Look, your father wants you to check out the delay problems we're having at the loading dock. Now I know you'd love to just sit there and keep being not slim, but we got to work a little today. Okay. I did like as he's walking out. That was from Star Wars. I know they get to explain the reference. Tommy puts the terminator hand back on and flips spade off. That's the loading dock. Tommy thinks he's figured out an issue with what's going to Columbus. That's a one day trip, not two, but turns out it's Columbus, Georgia, not Ohio, and he gets roasted for it. What else he got? Wonder boy. We should go back to college for another seven years and study a globe. God his ass. Also this guy, ass on. Oh, super ass on. Artie. Michelle Brock notices him from high school. He remembers her from history class. She works there now. Introsposition. I'm going to say my full name. He doesn't use file cabinets because you got to open them. All shipping orders go through her. No exposition. Spends half her pathetically anal life in here. She loads up a pneumatic tube 20 CB. Oh, I couldn't do things my way. I'd probably freak out and blow up the whole town. Hey, remember your brother Dwayne? What does he do? Oh, he's a cop. Cause they used to steal donuts together. Yeah. So he went into his biggest passion, donuts. She offers him a donut. I better not have what doctors call a little bit of a weight problem. Used to grab bear claws as a kid two at a time. Please clip in Blankston story. Chugging one after the other. Sometimes double fisted. Just, you know, you know what I'm talking about. They'll have coffee instead. Cut to the wedding day. Tommy thinks half the town is there. More champagne. You look good, dad. You look good too. Tommy boy. And I said, this is good to be super bad for the quest for peace levels. Talk stuff. We get some dead moms position. Big Tom doesn't like getting old being alone. Trails off, but Tommy gets the sentiment. It's cool. I just want you to be happy. Spades there watching pop grabs Tommy boy's cheeks again. So how do we look? Shelby, I think that's the champagne talking. You mean the champagne? Someone yells, go get them Tom at the wedding and the married reception time. Wasn't she blonde? Did I fuck that up? She wasn't one. No, cause it was all wet. It was slick back real good. Oh, it wasn't pushed back. No, that's not pushed back. It was slick back. That's a dangerous night's crew ass family bed. Yeah. And the song plays ain't too proud of bag by the temptations. Daisy chain, the temptations. That's right. We get some wedding video being filmed by Spade. Tommy introduces Michelle, the prettiest gal in Sandusky. So that camera reminded me, I couldn't remember which the Gal movie it was. Remember he was doing reconnaissance. The opening scene. It was hard to kill. Hard to kill. Yeah. He pulls out the massive action news camera. Come on. I'm missing the Oscars. Big Tom is conducting business at a table. Business deals at his wedding. Yeah, man. He's big Tom. This man is about business. I would like to take a look into his operation. Of course I could get a hell of a good look at a T bone steak by sticking my head up a full of sass, but I'd rather take the butcher's word for it. Both ass. That's great. Tommy loved that one. Both cliches. I think that's K F B. I mean, I agree. And you guarantee everything you sell. You know, I could guarantee you all day long, but we both know a guarantee is only as good as a man who writes it. Sounds good. Tom, I'll send the contract next week. Good man. Good man. Still the best time. Eat whiskey. Sours and still sell the son of a bitch. Damn. Good on the river. Yeah. This is breakfast. What are you proud about? Written hour compliments. Bo says she looked dynamite. Grignet says big Tom is lucky. Boy, would I like to get some of that spade to somebody. Good Lord. And then written hours in the back. Kathy Bates award making a drinking motion. Grignet tries to backpedal. Oh God. No, you got an edit button on that thing. It'll cost you. It's not that hard. Just chop, chop. Big Tom takes the mic. Welcome to new members to the family. Luckiest man in the world. Now it's time for a performance with big Tom and Tommy boy. Does a grown step son take the family name? No. Okay. No, this dude's 30. Yeah. I'm like, all right. Now I'm going to need you, Tommy boy. Me dad. Yeah, you Tommy boy. We get it. The name of the movie is Tommy boy. He said it formula. She knows one of the farleys was sitting at the table with Chris Farley. Me definitely did it. I didn't. They started singing Ray Charles. What did I say? Testify Tommy boy. Testify. Tommy's doing cartwheels. Not Chris Farley doing a cartwheel there. Not there. No. Spade invents the selfie by turning the camera around singing into the lens. He could turn the thing around fast enough. Yeah. A lot of CD five bad dancers, by the way. A lot of CD five bad dancers. They're dancing together. Beverly and big Tom. He collapses. Everybody rushes over and I wondered, you think he should himself? Well, we've established that apparently everyone who dies shit themselves. Yeah. So that's got to be real rough in a tuxedo, probably a rental. Wool. That shit is fucking thick, man. Presidential. This is a extremely rapid transition to his funeral. Bagpipes. Amazing grace. Again. Damn. Pre says some words straight to the funeral. Let me get my finest suspenders and leather tie ready. Time lapse to everybody gone except Tommy and spade. This is another funeral staple. It's like the same scene every time. Amazing grace bagpipes, time lapse. Now he's solemnly walking down a road with fall foliage. He's not walking down the road solemnly. No, he's walking fatly. Oh, fatly down the long path. And that's the point where I wrote Farley eight so that Kevin James could gorge. Let's be respectful here to whomst. They're Chris Farley. Wow. Look at that. What is that? Doesn't care that you said Kevin James Gorge. You think that I love Kevin James. You do. I'm just intrigued by certain things with Kevin James. KJ is just fascinating to me. Don't call him KJ. What am I supposed to call KJ? Blart. He's holding his hat. His little news boy cap. He's looking around the auto parts plan as amazing grace keeps going. Now he's out on a little sailboat with Michelle. No chance this thing isn't sitting on a block of cement. Boy dad gave him the boat. He'd be on the shore and yell quit playing with your dinghy. Pop. You're going to really miss him. She says your father was a great guy. She's glad he brought her out here. He says I can't believe you wanted to because of the implication. We had some wind. Can't believe there's no wind helps push the sails. Wayne's wind. She wonders what he's going to do now. Tommy doesn't know. Gotta do something. I don't know what man do I sound like an idiot. She says it's very peaceful. He's still apologizing about the wind and Jason Pelegrini and his two friends start heckling. Same note to from the shore. Hey Chumbo you ain't moving. Yeah need a little wind here. No you need to jump a couple hundred pounds. Grasples. I guess that's your theory. So we'll see what happens tomorrow. Hey your sail is limp like your dick. Watch your language in front of the lady punk. Geez you were saying. Hey Gilligan did you eat the skipper. You better pray to the god of skinny punks that this wind doesn't pick up because I'll come over there and jam it all up your ass. Hey those creepers those guys keep interrupting us. I'm sorry about that. You were saying about the um. Hey Woody look out there's a bow on your bow. Yeah. Free willy. Listen up you little spasioids. I know where you live and I've seen where you sleep. I swear to everything holy that your mothers will cry when they see what I've done to you. Do smart women like dumb guys. What's the attraction here. Do I need to be dumb. Need to be interesting. It's not working for you already. Oh money. Now you're getting it. Go say Rattler's at the comedy start tonight. My favorite part of this scene is every time Farley gets too intense and starts rocking the boat. Michelle grabs the sides and is hanging on for dear life. Attention to detail. She scares the kids they run away. That's because she's relatable guys. Michelle sits back down. I was just kidding. No idea where they live. I'm joking. He loved it. I'm joking. Cut to a board meeting. It's a linsky industries not to be confused with Sinney industries. He's got an offer on the table to buy them out. Callahan has been family owned since Tommy's great grandfather laid the first brick. There's a disagreement about selling the company. Everybody who owns stock will make a lot of money including Mrs Callahan. Grinier wants to sell. He appeals to bow and low since she's the primary shareholder. It seems vulgar to think about money at a time like this money. As on for bow as on Beverly as a son for both both really double really you don't think she's doing a good job of being an ass on person. No I think she's ass off being ass on. I see what you're saying. I can get behind that in front of it. Motorbottom. Bank won't give them the loan now when big Tom died Callahan auto might have died with him and that's when two random old people chime in. Oh if this factory goes under the whole town goes under and that's when the whores come in. Excuse me. What was that? Yeah. Men laying their trick money down. $20 to pay the rent. Maybe instead I'll spend it on the whore. I love this. I laugh my ass off as she brings it back. $20 to pay the rent. The look on his face. Fucking here we go again. It's so funny. This is my golden dumpster. It's really hard to beat it. This and grandpa from tripping make me want to create a silver Fox CT five or something like that. Yeah. Favorite olds. Magoo's on that list. Tommy raised his hand wants to help offers his house and stock is collateral. Tommy will hand over his inheritance to get the breakpads going. Pop said it was the future of Callahan pop but who's going to sell them. I will be my father's body. I will go by dad sales trip. Oh, we don't even have a body. I will be my father's body. I'll be the one buried because he loved magic so very much. I don't think Job knows what he's saying. I know exactly what I'm saying. I will be buried in my father's place and then one week later I will emerge from the grave in one of the greatest illusions ever. Just all about getting into poof. I mean, how does that not get me a cover? Spade rolls his eyes written our I'll be damned and back to the whores lady for round two whores running around doing their little behind shake for the men folk. I kind of like her idea for Christ's sake. Once during the war I visited a prostitute and my life has been a living hell ever since. So good. Yeah. My favorite is that everyone in the room has heard it before. Absolutely. They all know this. So she brings it up every single fucking meeting. She's playing great. Except Rob Lowe's very intrigue. C.C. very intrigue. Not hold on now. Old lady. Hold on. What about the horse? Do they want the future of the company and Tommy's hands? They got a couple of weeks. Tommy doesn't know the first thing about breakpads. But he feels like he ought to do something and he doesn't know much, but Richard does. Sick poor. He ropes them in. He knows more about breakpads than anyone. And since you were my dad's right hand man and his arm, I'd say you got the rest of the year wide open. Timeout. Bad idea. I don't think anyone can help baby Huey on the road reference cut to the road. Oh, I think it's a clip. Babies. Baby. Who wants to meet baby? Baby's home. Oh, what? What the hell is this? Baby's home. Cut to them on the road. Yeah. Tommy's eating fries, squirting ketchup packets into his mouth. I can actually hear you getting fatter. Same note to bro. No eating the car reminder. Richard starts reprimanding him to pretend to work here. Let's review three grades of breakpads. Personal commercial agricultural. This quizzing way more productive than the quizzing in crossover of course. What? How many times the link is playing something to the finals? Well, hold on. I don't like that accent. Carry in charge for all the merch in the warehouse. One and a half percent. Tommy's frustrated. Hounding on the dash. Why can't he remember that? Richard suggests some association. Average person uses 10% of their brain. How much do you use? One and a half percent. The rest of it is clogged with multi-tops and bong rips. Michael Beasley. Because if you're only using 10% of your brain, you don't even know that you're using 10% of your brain. Cut to their first meeting. Midwest regional auto parts. Is this suit make me look fat? No, no, no, no. Your face does. Spade accidentally pulls off his clip on tie. All right. Now it's sale time. So remember, we don't take no- No shit from anyone. No. We don't take no prisoners. We don't take no for an answer. Oh yeah. We don't take no for an answer. We don't take no for an answer. We don't take no for an answer. Ope. Or is that 20CB? I think it's both. Okay. Time for a quick little montage of them getting shut down. A no montage. No. Okey dokey. No. Gotcha. Thanks. Terrific. Thanks for your time. Let me say maybe. Well then, I just like to add that these spectrometer readout on the nickel-cadmium alloy mix indicates a good rich strobe and fade, decreasing incidence of wear to the pressure plate. If you could just- Whoa, little fella. You're not speaking my language. What my associate is trying to say is that our new brake pads are really cool. You're not even going to believe it. He picks up a model car, he starts enacting a scenario. Let's say you're driving along the road with your family and you're driving along. Then all of a sudden there's a truck tire in the middle of the road and you hit the brakes. Whoa. That was close. Now let's see what happens when you're driving with the other guys brake pads. You're driving along, you're driving along, and all of a sudden the kids are yelling from the backseat, I gotta go to the bathroom daddy. Not now, dammit. Truck tire. I can't stop. Help! There's a cliff! And your family screaming, oh my god, we're burning alive. No, I can't feel my legs. Here comes a meat wagon. And the medic gets out and says, oh my god. New guys in the corner got shot. All because you want to save a couple extra pennies. And to me, it doesn't get out. Now. Is this funny? You guys laugh when he does this? When he lights it on fire, I thought it was funny. Oh my god. Like that stuff, you like when he does the like, I'm going to just go stream of consciousness about like anything. And then this water bottle shows up as, hey, who did this? Who put this thing there? And the big dinosaurs is, whoa, I'm afraid of water. You guys think that's funny. You think white chicks is funny? You think this is funny? I'm asking you. We like, oh my god. I'm still recovering from the horse lady. So no, I didn't laugh as hard as that. Fair enough. I respect the commitment to the bit. When he lights it on fire, so the fact that he's lighting it on fire, I think is funny. The trivia is that that was improv. I don't doubt that. But just because it's improv doesn't make it good. In the same way that just because there's a blooper doesn't mean like, oh, shit, we should put this at the end of the movie because everyone's going to laugh. No, I get it. You don't like the movie. It's a phone for you. I get it. But the rest of us are going to enjoy it. I'm just saying like this was this. No, I mean, just just just to help you again. You laughed. If you listen to what I said, no, I don't find this funny, but I find it when he lights the car on fire. That's funny. You thought that was funny because that's such a stupid thing to keep it going. And the idea that someone would light someone else's property on fire and not really realize what was happening is funny to me, but this is going to blow your dick off. I'm holding it so it doesn't fly CGI to the window. I don't think a hundred percent of this movie is funny, even though I think this movie is funny. I don't think it's a hundred percent hit rate. There are points where it falls flat. What percent do you think? Probably 75. 75 percent of this movie is funny of the parts that are supposed to be funny. Absolutely. After trying to blow out the fire, he said, Tommy asks, do you validate from a D cut to a new town? They're at a gas station. Tommy says the car is a court low on oil. Can you guys change oil? I wouldn't even know what a court low looks like. Change oil. No, I could put oil in a car. You could tell like, we're running low on oil. Use the dipstick, baby. Okay. I check my dipstick. I need lubrication. Honey. It's tenacious to America's. I thought it's something else, but I have a note about the something else. So I'm holding on to it. You're going to hold on to your dipstick. The next line after what May's just saying is by kill boss of sausage has just got to perform. I'm going to hold on to it. Dick poor is going to make him change the oil as penance for the puppet show. Gonna ask directions. Their next huge embarrassing failure. You're a huge embarrassing failure. Ask how far to Davenport 22 mile. Can't find it on the map. Get a new map. 20 C B. Yeah. Paper maps and asking directions at the gas station. You remember this? What a one to combo. Who do I remember? Now, Zach, something tells you that Bill Harper is the kind of guy who would fight to the death before succumbing to the I'll ask the question. He wasn't the most in tasking for directions. I'll say that. Yeah. We didn't have the money to fly. Anywhere. So we took many a road trip places. I was part of the fun. Maybe this was the plan of where to stop. But I think there was a place called Cody, Wyoming, where we stayed at the six guns motel and it was such a disgusting room. My mom cried herself to sleep. That's how gross it was. She cried herself to sleep. She was so upset. Disgusting that motel was Tommy's trying to fill up gas. The court is too short. He smells his gas finger and giggles. He's going to back the car up. He peels the door back on a post moves forward. We see him trying to pull the door back to its position as Richard is arguing about the map and he's being sarcastic. Dick poor living up to his name. Barley, Kathy Bates award through the window. I'm picking up your sarcasm. Well, I hope so. Cause I'm laying it on pretty sick. He says that's a map of Illinois, which we're in. You need a map of Iowa, which is where Davenport is 22 miles away. You're in the wrong state. Give yourself a new map. God is ass. This guy straight shooter spade asked about the gas. Farley didn't pump any gas lies that they only have diesel spades about to get in the car. He notices a little mark on the door. He's buffing it with spit and his thumb. And then when he goes to open it, he yanks it off the hinges. What'd you do? His foistly. How you feeling, I mean, at the company fair. Oh, this will be a great employee died out carnival. No wonder they're going out of business. Maybe Sandusky's not that bad. You got to clip that shit. If you're going to clip me saying, I'm gonna stick up this one. You got to go down. Employees want to know if it's true. Tommy's going to save the company confirmed. Are you kidding? We're all screwed. That kid's one apple that fell way off the tree. Ass on RT, lock him in. Same. No, two. Once he got a second scene and fucked that up too. I said, all right, he's out bow and low, strolling around low mocking children, bow grabs him by the ear. You want to act like a baby? I'll treat you like one. Now if you want to act like a big boy, clip you at the strip club redactment. Yeah. They started making out. Bad mommy. Don't call me that. It's weird. And I said, you just called them a big boy. Yeah, that was weird. Let's keep giving all this nefarious exposition in a public place. Sure. That is what they plan. That would take a year to bleed big Tom dry in a divorce settlement. Just a year. Instead, the guy croaks. You won't have the company. Have you seen this carnival Zach? I think it's hard to fuck. But he didn't leave her any cash and the stock isn't worth a dick until they sell. That moment is rapidly approaching. Michelle asks Mr. Rittenauer if Tommy's doing okay. I said she's wearing so much denim right now. That takes a while to find his style, which is pretty prescient of how this movie is going to go. Michelle sees bow and low walking off arm and arm. Does that how the movie goes? Everybody tells Paul that Tom is the only thing keeping them poor. He says Tommy's an idiot. He won't sell squad. He starts pissing on a fence with a Callahan sign on it. Tommy saves the factory. That's a laugh. Pissed on transformers. Supercharged and flies to the air. Go Midy. All right. He hits the ground. She's there standing with her ass on. Is his hogs still out? And is it smoking? And it's a wreck. Smoking because electrical charges. Spasm. Yep. I don't think they were making a wreck. Absolutely makes it a wreck. All right. I'll figure it out. Rigid. Imagine if it was during the daytime. Those. Oh, okay. Yeah. I got you. There ain't enough electricity in the world at night. Driving across the countryside without a door. There's a deer in the field. 185 miles to Des Moines. They're arguing over McKeesport on the map. Okay. Where's moron and spade? Flicks his finger into Barley's nose. Okay. Moron's here. So and a deer walks into the road. Tommy yells deer. He slams on the brakes. Screen goes black. If they had hit a deer, that deer would have fucked that little tin car up horribly. One American made. Hammy. So don't think so. Hammy. Two, he slammed on the brakes. Hold on. We established this in the rewatching. The thing does not say. Hammy. Hammy. Didn't hit that thing full speed. If it was full speed, absolutely. That's an American made steel right there. Spade. Ass on being sad and trying to cry. Poor little furry thing. Yeah. They decided they can't leave it in the road. Now the deer is in the backseat on the highway. Took an hour to load it up. Now they only have 20 minutes. Hammy wonders what to do with the deer. Take it to the vet. Take dead animals to the vet. Why not? I'd take you to the vet. I'll take you to the, got that? Shut up. They get to the office. What's your hurry? Know that thing in the backseat? It's not an air freshener. It's a dead rotting deer carcass. Got to take care of it quick. One of their oldest customers. They should be in and out. Tommy says sales isn't so easy. Need some finesse. Spade mocks him for sputtering and Tommy says, why don't you sell dick poor cut to the sales job? If I took no for an answer, I'd probably end up on a street corner selling spicy hot dogs and wearing a funny hat. Right? It makes sense. Doesn't it? It's like a G dog on a fly tip. It's been doing business with the company since he hung out his shingle. Yeah. 20 CB. But he doesn't like Richard. Probably never will. You're a smug, unhappy little man and you treat people like they're idiots. Tommy is laughing, now starts talking about him and his dad going way back before he does business with them. He'd have to come back and take a look at their operation and Tommy gets excited. He's gonna recite the big Tom killer line from the wedding. Hey, I tell you what, you can take a good look at a butcher's ass by sticking your head up there. But wouldn't you rather take his word for it? What? I'm failing to make the connection here, son. No, I mean, you can get a good look at a T bone by sticking your head up a butcher's ass. But then no, it's got to be your bowl. Wow. Here's the deal. If I want you. You have derailed. Shut up, Richard. Boy, I'm really at a loss for words here. Forget it. I quit. I can't do this anymore, man. My head's about to explode. My whole life sucks. I don't know what I'm doing. I don't know where I'm going. My dad just died. We just killed Bambi. I'm out here getting my ass kicked and every time I drive down the road, I want to jerk the wheel and I want to go to a fridge in Puntman. He's pulling on his hair. He's flipping out. Brady looks freaked out. Spade holds up a business card. We'll be in touch. The hair standing up. This is the iconic image from this movie. Driving down the highway as the sun gets real low or on the way to Minneapolis. Brady called them a psycho. You are a psycho and comb your hair. I wouldn't say you did much better. Just then the deer starts to wake up. It's alive. Ass off. Dog Rambo opening his eye. I agree. But the way it's listening to the conversation. Yeah. It reminded me of the horse from the Phantom. Oh, yeah. It reminded me of young Frank Dukes. So then spade screams close up on spade screaming close up on Farley screaming and then close up on the deer screaming. I laughed. Of course. It's funny. That's funny. It racks the car, kicks out all the windows. Then it stands on top of it. Spade. My car is completely destroyed. I swear I've seen a lot of stuff in my life, but that that was was awesome. And so much car, man. We're not not done yet yet cut to the deer Glen motel with some toots the human harmonica. The six guns might have been the six guns, man. How filthy was the six guns? The carpet was disgusting. There might have been broaches or something. I don't know. I just remember we pulled in real late and my mom cried herself to sleep because I thought your mom was like absolutely not. And then you guys turn around and left. I didn't think she'd go along with it. Where were we gonna go? Yeah, you gotta say somewhere. You're in the middle of fucking Wyoming. It's 94. We can't Google it. Yeah, that's a good buzz. Tommy has the window open literally letting Moss in. They see a Zlensky commercial. America, if you need starters, spark plugs, ball joints, gaskets, camshafts, u joints or rocker arms, anything that can be screwed or glued to that car or truck of yours, come see Ol Ray. Hey, you want a guarantee? I got a guarantee stamped on every box. He's got really weird hair. But more important is the guarantee that I make to the American worker. I want your truck to help you get the job done. I want your cruiser to get out there safely so you can clean up the streets. And I want your kids to be safe when you take them for a ride. Thanks Ray. Thank you, son. The name's Zlensky. I make car parts for the American working man because that's what I am and that's who I care about. He seems like a nice guy. This is the guy trying to buy the company not to mention put you out in the street and all you can see is, hmm, he's like a nice guy. He does. And may as clip the Ghostbusters infomercial because he's using the same speaking voice. Ghostbusters. Our courteous and efficient staff is on call 24 hours a day to serve all your supernatural elimination needs. We're ready to believe you. I know it's more Chicago here. Yeah, this is his blues brother's voice, but his commercial voice is it's the same. Yeah, that's your Lewis Pinnock front runner. Yes, Chicago. Well, he's doing crossover voices. Phone rings. It's Michelle. Tommy gets excited. Says things are going great. Lai feels this first sale coming along soon. Meanwhile, Spade is vacuuming moths. Can we get any more moths in here? He's trying to explain what the vacuum's on. I don't know. I guess he's clean. Tommy will call her back. He misses her. Tommy wants to know what Richard's so mad about and Richard goes off on him. Time for recap position. Hello, exposition. Hardestroyed zero sales need to sell half a mill break pads in the next 10 days of the factories going under. That's his quote using Tommy of not caring. Tommy says he cares about stuff. He's getting better. I'm not, but I could if you help me. Spade doesn't want to change his diapers. And here comes back guy little coat iconic. It's a devilish smirk comedy question mark iconic. This is part of the 75. As you're saying, he does give you a priceless. Oh, he sure does, but it means got to stick up his ass. So I can't do it. He's so angry right now. I know. Oh, if it was Hitler, he'd laugh intro. Somehow we need to get Zach holding the hand massage. Back on the road headed to Duluth arguing over the radio changing songs. They flipped a superstar by the carpenters and both pretend it's lame. Banger. So the driving of the fucked up car feels very derivative of planes, trains, automobiles. Yeah, probably they play radio faceoff. I don't know any of these songs. I'm guessing knowing them would help me understand the bit to America's. You don't know carpenters. I don't know that song. Wow. I don't think you need to know the songs to understand people arguing over the radio. Oh, I don't like this song. Yeah, I don't like this song. And there's one they both like, but they don't want to admit to each other. And then you cut to them. You're banging it out. So the idea is that they don't want to admit that they agree with the other, but they like the song because it's a softer love ballad song. And these guys are arguing over rock. Got it. It's not a hard concept to figure out. I didn't pick up on like the genre of the song being you'd have to have your phone down. Well, my phone was up because I was taking the notes. The note was, I don't fucking get it because this song is too white. I don't fucking know. Like, oh, that's supposed to be some bitch song. Is that what you're telling me? All right, I'll take your word for it. Sounded like the other two songs. All right. I mean, let me put it in terms that you'll understand. You know, it's crazy. You know, it's a funny bit. The fact that Terry Cruz would like that song. Oh, why would he like this song? That's nothing like what he likes. Why would your dad? Yes, exactly. The hood of the car flips up. They scream. They swerve all over the road. They spin out. They knock the head off on a sign. They finally come to a halt over on the shoulder. Spade brings up the oil change. Farley insists he did it right. True, but you can't latch the hood too well. If you don't take the can out, you know selling waste of space. I swear to God, you're worthless. Sorry about your card. Don't call me worthless. I'm not my dad. That's right. You're not your dad. He could sell a ketchup popsicle to a woman in white gloves. That's right. Let's tell me he didn't have a dad. You took him for granted. Hey, I'm big Tom's son. He'll fix everything. So I'm allowed to be a moron. Step, Pompey talk. Not even step father figure talk. Now let's fight on the side of the road. It's go time. He says hit me. You and me. Look, mommy, the rhinos getting too close to the car. Him too afraid to get out. He just a little guy. He's a little guy. That's it. Big boy. I'm going to wail on you. He's giving Richard a free shot. He punched him in the face. That's it. Backhands him. Hey, everybody's there. A window open. I feel a draft punch the gut. Grab the hair. Another hook. If I wanted to kiss, I would have called your mother. Then he hits him with a piece of wood in the face. Two by four. He pulled out of his butt. Like Steve James in American Ninja two. Where are you hiding that? That was a good one. Spade finally notices the giant dinosaur prehistoric forest behind them had trauma. Number seven at least as they were fighting. I was like, okay, I'm kind of interested in this forest. Me too. Cut to them at the clock bucket. Taffer would love this place. Tommy asks if he has a mark on his face. Nothing. I thought I hit you in the shoulder. See a massive bruise on the side of his face as he's explaining where it hurts. Second time we get soundtrack exposition in this movie. It's playing. I'm sorry. First was during the test. Richard asked for the shrimp cocktail. He saw in the case waitress asked Tommy what happened to his face. Helen is ass off. Oh yeah. The waitress. A perfect diner waitress as a waitress who doesn't give a fuck about your life. Tommy orders chicken wings, but the kitchen is closed till dinner. It's only cold stuff and desserts. Boy, some chicken wings had really hit the spot. You sure it's closed? Let me check. Yep. It's closed. Okay. I'll just have a sugar packet or two. Hey, what's your name? Helen. That's nice. You look like a Helen. Helen, we're both in sales. Let me tell you why I suck as a salesman. Let's say I go into some guy's office. Let's say he's even remotely interested in buying something. Well, then I get all excited. I'm like Jojo, the idiot circus boy with a pretty new pet. The pet is my possible sale. Oh, my pretty little pet. I love you. So I stroke it and I pet it and I massage it. Yeah, I love it. I love my little naughty pet. You're naughty. And then I take my naughty pet and I go. I killed it. I killed my sale. That's when I blow it. That's when people like us have got to forge ahead, Helen. Am I right? What the fuck are you talking about? God, you're sick. Tell you what, I'll go turn the friars back on and throw some wings in for you. Hey, thanks Helen. Tell me likey. Tell me what wingy. I don't know if this movie started it, but this was big among white people in the 20s CB in the mid 90s, referring to self in the third person and saying, Tommy likey, Tommy went winging talking like baby, putting E at the end of words and using the stupid Santa stupid retired like it was every fucking where I hated it then I hate it now. But the thing that made me hate this scene even more than anything is paid is like, you see what happened? You got the wings because you were relaxed. What? He's done the same retard shit. He's doing the whole movie. Throwing that around a lot. Yeah, it's being done a lot in this movie. No, it's a completely different approach than he was in the sales meetings. How he just said gibberish. They literally exposition it. He had confidence. Yeah, they literally exposition. There was no confidence. It was the same shit. It was the same fucking stupid gibberish. No, it was. You just have to not go in going, I know I hate everything in this movie. This shit is so dumb. He literally behaved the same way he behaved when he set the shit on fire. He didn't though. He then credits him for his street smart. That was your dad. Your dad was street smart. You're not books for street. I was like, what street? The one from Morbius? Well, with the school across the street. Those kids were pretty smart. That's true. Okay. They were kind of bingo. My bad. Pop was the best at knowing what people wanted to hear and what people needed to hear. That's what selling is all about. These people are buying you, not just brake pads. Hey, everybody, it's Tony Robbins reference cuts of them pulling up to another factory. It's the human is wailing on that thing. Dude, owner likes their line likes their prices, but there's no guarantee on the box. I said what Callahan has guaranteed every part sold since 1925. Tommy tries the butcher analogy again. Spade stops him reminds him chicken wings. Ted stops him and says your time is up chasing after Ted wonders why guarantee would be on a box. Ted says go on. I'm listening. I'm like, what? Yeah, why the fuck would that be the thing that stops you in your track? You already said your time's up. So he wants to feel warm and toasty inside makes a man feel good. Put that box under your pillow guarantee fairy leave you a quarter. Am I right? What's your point? How do you know the fairy isn't a crazy glue sniffer? Build a model airplane says the fairy. Well, we're not buying it money missing off the dresser. Daughters knocked up seen it a hundred times. What are you talking about? Tommy says they sold them a guaranteed piece of shit. That's all it is. Isn't it your customer's sake for your daughter's sake? Buy a quality product from me and Ted agrees and they're stunned that it worked. Chicken wings, chicken wings, home team. Everly's in bed tells Paul it's one deal. They're fine. She's trying to seduce him and he wants to figure out how to fuck over the company. And he knows take out their trucks because they got to ship all this shit. Stop the trucks. Stop Tommy boy. Oh, and low have turned big Tom's mansion into a fuckhouse. That's right. So low goes there at night in the red Cadillac smoking a cigar gets out a rifle. You raising your hand. So the Rottweiler pops out. It's got a chain, whatever. He's got a cigar. Rottweiler lunges at him. And I swear to God, I thought the Rottweiler was going to grab the cigar from his mouth and turn it to triumph. You know what? That happens. I'll file this movie. Look at this photograph. Chain stops at just short. You think he's going to aim for a tire that aims at a fuel tank. He's going to try to shoot from inside the car for some reason than that annoying 20 ZB seatbelt thing auto activates. I never understood those. I thought they were only in Saturn's. No, that's the only time I ever encountered them. No, no, no, no, no. My buddy had a Ford escort that had that shit in there. The Mazda protege had that shit. Why does it matter where the escorts from intro at this point? I get a commercial break. The zebra insurance commercial where they have a CGI zebra wearing a suit. This is the most excited you've been all fucking podcast. Yeah. Watch this. Watch this. This zebra commercial is way more interesting. And then I thought, Oh, the horsepower duck, the horse power duck is the only thing that matters. He moves his arms. He shoots the Callahan sign loose. It cuts the dog's chain. Not good. And the Rottweiler attacks slow in the car. Comedy back to the motel. Tommy wants to celebrate their first victory. Space says they got lucky. Don't jinx it. There's only a week left working on the map. Tommy's going to get a pizza. Spago's the window. He sees a hot woman at the pool by herself at night in the Midwest as one does. Tommy's walking up. Tommy scram. Don't give her the weight room thing. Scram 20 CB. You know where the weight room is? I'll check it out. Richard's horny. He's dirty talking her. You get wet, honey. You deserve a swim. Now take off that itchy robe. He's gonna go. He's cooking hard. And then Spade says daddy like 20 CB and again to America's because black people don't say daddy like, but white people love saying that. I don't know. Again, if this was something white people said in the movie, just say, Hey, this is what people say. Or did the movie introduces the white people? Do you want to try to make a good podcast or do you want to just do this for the next hour? This for the next hour. Okay. Oh, for the love of God, please don't stop. We've been on the road. Oh, those are real. No one's looking. Spade unzips his pants loudly. Even though he's wearing boxers. She swan dives into the pool naked. Tommy gets back. Catches dickport the window. He dives into bed. He got into bed quick. Says he was going over documents. He must have gotten a full gander of the goon. Yeah, because he's already in the room looking at him. Oh, for sure. Tommy's mocking him. Richard, were you watching spanked revision? Let's get some masturbation puns. Maybe we're watching a movie with that funny comedian. Oh, what's his name? Buddy Whack it. Hey, that's a pretty girl down there. I wonder if she goes out with one of the Yankees got to them in bed trying to fall asleep. Big day tomorrow. Keep the momentum going. Richard, who's your favorite little rascal? Alfalfa or is it spanky sinner? I'm giggling to himself and saying sinner was funny. It's great back on the road and they're crudely repaired. Jalopy little montage of three consecutive sales. Jalopy. What are they driving me? Is it a Jalopy or is it Jalopy? He's putting open there. Antelope. Oh, Uncle Lopey. They've got suits now. Guy asked to be paint chips as a kid. Call back. Tommy walks into a glass window. Call back. Driving into Oshkosh. A thousand units to Oshkosh. Exposition that Pop never did that. Hot hitchhiker. The hot hitchhiker was just there because they needed the dog to be there. Zach, get ready. You're going to love this. I thought the dog was jizzing on Farley at first. Why would I love this? No, you like dogs. I don't like dogs jizzing on things. Not even into eclairs? No, I fast forwarded through that part. You're the one that watched it in great detail. How much cum could one dog possibly have? Heading to Flint. Tommy gets out to pee. Spades slowly rolls away from him. I think that stuck in my zipper. I got piss all over my pants. And now we're heading into the D Wayne Brady and Action Jackson City. All caps response from my mom. It made me cry. Wow. All caps off memory. What was her mental state in the moment? We were the six guns about telling Cody why it wasn't great. And not because like, oh, here's an adventure. Although sure. Bill sold it at such. He finds a way. That's a salesman right there. Back at the Calhand plant. Low sneaking around massive bandages. Changes the amounts and shipping time for the orders. Michelle finds him in her office. CT five or sli. He was making a call. Tommy talk. He's a sweetie. Yeah. When does sweetie get back? His shirt gets caught in the pneumatic tube. Go on. They make conversation and the shirt gets stuck completely off his body. He's got a weird tattoo on his shoulder. And also he's not in good shape. And I kind of shocked me. But that was mid 90s skinny guy. Good shape. You didn't have to be as cut, right? Got you. We weren't quite at Brad Pitt fight club. Got it. Still hot. Yes. Good looking guy. Spades at a pay phone box of Dunkin Donuts product placement. They duct tape the car up. Spade pretends to be housekeeping. Who's been out? I'm skipping. No, thank you. Sleepy. I'm skipping. So back in an hour. I'm skipping you. What? I told need sleepy. I'm skipping you. What? Me for pillow. Please go away. Let me sleep for the love of God. I'll keep you. Let me drink you up. What can I hope tell is this the car? Oh, it's you. Good morning, sunshine. The old housekeeping routine. It's funny when I do it. It's not funny when it's written into a movie. Where do you think it came from? So you realize that you doing it is ripping off this movie. Yeah. No, this is where it came from. I was in up for this movie. No fucking chance. You're such a liar. I could see it all over your face. What's all over my face? The lies. Oh, I'm upside down. Spade bragging about another order. They're over the mark. They did it. Tommy drops his blanket. He's got tiny pool ball undies. Oh, Richard, I'm so happy. Hold me. Yikes. Don't run away from your feelings. Cut to driving. Come on, Eileen, in the end of the world. Come on. Eris 2 by Mosedaris. Montage of now. That's what I call 20 CB music. Hell yeah, man. Now they're back in Sandusky. Oh, they're shipping scruples. All hell has broken loose. Half the orders have been canceled. They think things don't work around here. I'm loving this yada, yada exposition. Just move us forward. Hello exposition. Can't make payments to the bank. They tell Tommy it's over. They have to sell to Zelensky. He'll shut it down. He wants the Callahan name by 6 p.m. tomorrow will all be unemployed. Keep that in mind. Warehouse rescue. Spade is freaking out, thinking his head's going to explode. Did anybody see scanners? Michelle's packing up her desk. Tommy walks in. She says, don't say anything. I know you already hate me. Okay. She cuts him off, ruined his entire life. Tommy's trying to figure out what happened going over everything. Then she says, I know it was big, but it wasn't my fault. I said, you just said it was your fault. Don't worry. I quit. You don't have to put up with me anymore. I said, quit. Bitch. We're all unemployed by six tomorrow. They just said it and she's getting out of day early. Oh, thanks a lot. What the fuck is going on? You need to dramatic fight so that we can send her to the airport. That's right, where she's trying to get a ticket to Kyahoga falls where her parents are. The flight goes through Columbus. This makes no fucking sense. It's Ohio. So Sandusky to Kyahoga is 80 miles east or a 90 minute drive. Columbus is 111 miles south. Take a little planes, a puddle hoppers. I know, but they want to route her further the opposite direction to go back. I'm going to guess just get in the car. Sandusky airport mid nineties. Not a lot of great direct flight options. Guess what Zach? I'll raise you one. There's no Kyahoga falls airport. Not anymore. Never was that since the accident. And I would have found out which accident 911. Whoa. This is all so she can look over and see bow and low making out furiously and him getting deep in that ass. He really grabbed the cheeks. Not a whole lot of cheeks to grab, but he tried. Remember our brother is a cop. Oh, that's right. Dwayne from the beginning of the movie. Yeah. What about it? He's in a column. Oh, because this is a situation where you'd call a cop. Well, she says, Hey, Dwayne, Hey, beat cop Dwayne. Oh, no. Zach, you think he's a beat cop? He's been a cop for years. Oh, detective. Oh, he made detective. Yeah. But she doesn't get to talk to him because he's not there. So she's got to ask for detective Dwayne Brock. Tommy's driving spade is getting a little wasted in the front seat. Ass on. Oh, super ass on Tommy says the town's not going to know what hit it. Fishing a barrel. My friend town's a fish. The people are the barrel. Fishing a barrel. Cop pulls out to follow him. Richard's getting drunk. He starts to puke and spill beer. It causes Tommy to swerve. Now the whole car smells like beer. Tosses the beer in the backseat, just like Gordon Bombay. That's right. Yeah. This is just how you did it in the nineties, I guess you had to. If you were drunk driving, yes. And you have to hear the clink of the bottle hitting other bottles that are already back there. Yes. Cause you've had a few. Tommy gets an idea. He swerves even more. When I stop, run out screaming. No problem. Pop taught him this trick. Pop. Boy, big Tom Callahan man. Big Tom Callahan is an all time dad. Suddenly it's a B movie. God, they're huge. They're ripping my flatchops. Son, roll around. Jamie, roll around on the ground. Forget that. I'm starting to swell up. Save yourself. Don't be the hero. Frank, don't alert the bees. Me too. They're huge and they're staying crazy. We'll come back later and check on you. Yeah, in a while. Save yourself. Your firearms are useless against them. Holy schnikes, it worked. I just barfed on an anhill. Cool. Whoa. I think they're pissed. They stopped under the Zalinsky billboard. Tommy says that's the answer. Go to Chicago. Tell them they're not for sale. He seems like a good guy. This is a very early instance of billboard exposition. Yeah. That's the answer. Spade says, doesn't look like the answer. I didn't eat that nose. Linsky, which is cobra formula. Also 20 CB. I don't remember eating that after puking. Spade gives exposition to remind Tommy that he lost his shares to the bank. Must in 24 hours. They lose the factory anyway. So let's give it a shot. That's right. Thanks. Cut to the airport. 20 CB calling from a pay phone at the airport and leaving a message on the machine. Wow. Triple D. Levels of 20 CB. 20 CB's inception right there. They leave their car at the curb. Keep it. Next flight to Chicago sold out. Spade says it's an emergency in a movie full of 20 CB's. This is the most 20 CB moment because she says the next flight to Chicago leaves in five minutes, but that's not why you can't get on that flight. You can't get on that fight because it's sold out leaves in five minutes. Not a problem. I'll get you there. You could do that in the nineties. Yep. You could even a little bit into the 2000s. It was a TSA. She's proposing terrible ideas, sending him all over the country. And he says, hi, I'm earth. Have we met? And she goes, I don't think so. Ass off. Richard explains no tickets to Chicago. They see flight attendants go by. You got any money? I've got a plan. They're on the plane and flight attendant outfits. They see the stewardess. I thought they were pilots. I didn't know that they're flight attendants. Sexism. Yes, it is probably. Oh my God. This is all that we can set up spade doing his annoying asshole flight attendant bit and to get Tommy to have the life preserver. Blew my mind. You want to talk about a fucking, how do I wrestle this shit in here? Hey, remember that thing you do on SNL? Wouldn't it be cool if we had a scene where you got to do that in the movie? Pretty crazy that two actors who were actively on SNL with two writers that were actively writing for SNL would use their bits that they wrote for SNL to be in a movie. The hacks. I remember us talking about it. I don't remember the same disdain for the same recycled jokes. No, no, no, we talked about it. I was. I was the one that said recycled ways jokes is a thing. I said, sure. Again, didn't say it didn't come up. I had this day, sir. Listen, I had this day. I was disdainful. I was full of disdain. Hey, guess who's here? What are we serving tonight? Chicken or chicken? They'll handle a coach in the announcements. Richard will do the talking clip it. And I said, Oh, he drops the Bobbadook. Yes, he does. Hit the Bobbadook. Okay, folks, the guy in front of you is Tommy. He'll be taking you through my little spiel here. Tommy is a Scorpio. He likes biking and he's never been laid. Exits. Okay. There's one back here and there's probably one over by the wing somewhere usually. And what about seat belts? Two fast. Take the little end and stick it in the big end. And you know what? If you guys don't know how to use a seat belt, just ring your call button and Tommy will come back there and hit you on the head with a tack hammer because you're a retard. Okay. And life preservers. These we may need. Although what are the odds of us actually hitting a leg? My money says of anything, it's going to be a mountain. Tommy accidentally grabs the child life preserver. It's choking him. He goes nuts. He grabs a brooch off of lapel. He punctures it. I thought it was a brooch as well, but it appears to be a pen. It's an actual pen because he caps it back up. Oh, I got scared because I thought he was going head first. Oh, you thought if he's going to die, he's going to die doing what he loved. Yeah. He's a big dumb animal. Isn't he folks? Golden topster pilot says making final approach, checking on someone in the bathroom, half hour time limit. They react to the smell like a rumble. 20 CB spades a quick change. Artists when Richard goes in and comes out so quickly, completely changed Tommy's look of confusion is so funny to me. Yeah. Trying to figure it out, trying to do the math there. I think it's hilarious. Tommy's up next. He tries to hang his suit up. He breaks the hook. He bangs his head on the sink where it had drama like 15 at least at this point. This would be literally impossible for me. So I get it. They paid the flight attendants for their clothes, but didn't give them the clothes off their back. So somewhere there's just two flight attendants with a bunch of cash in their boxers. They had their own bags. The flight attendants. He's destroying this bathroom. He's loud as fuck. He rips the toilet seat off. He's banging all over. He gets his tie stuck. He flushes it. He goes flying bus down the door, crashes outside with his pants down and we're in Chicago. He's putting a car air fresher all over his body right here. Not this is crunch time. The cab stops short. Tommy smashes his face into the barrier for more head trauma. Massive skyscraper. Welcome to the pros. They seize the linsky. They run and get stuck in a revolving door. They lose the linsky. Tommy shouts, listen up. This will only take a second. Everybody drops the ground in the bank. Guards slide their guns to him. He runs out. He hides from the police. Tells Richard walk slow. Why nothing? Am I consorting with a known felon kid comes over and yells to his mom. It's the guy who robbed the bank. I didn't rob any bank. Oh yeah. Right. Like it was some other fat guy with a tiny head. I got a tiny head. Then the elevator was the linsky. He notices them noticing him. Tommy introduces himself. Went a little heavy on the pine tree perfume there kid. Sir, it's a taxi cab air freshener. Great. You've pinpointed it. Step two is washing it off. He's got a really good Chicago accent. Mine is not good. Yeah. Cut to the television report. Security guards. The base is vulnerable there, man. He's looking for you like, oh, I'm sorry, man. No, I'm not. It wasn't. I'm not. Let's just find. I can't do one either. I do love these security guards. They're great. Great comedy duo. I like the way they're standing. First one's trying to look tough and confident and everything and the other guy's standing so awkwardly behind him lying their asses off here. Sir, what exactly happened here? He came out of the shadows behind me and after he hit me many, many times in the head with a hammer, I had to give him my gun. You know, I've got kids. Cut to the testing level. D Zalinsky said, look at it from his view. Callahan is a premium name. That's what he's buying. He can make the parts of one of his factories, put them in a Callahan box and sell them in his stores at a premium price. I know you got taff or vibes as I did. Of course. Premium brand, we put it. Yeah. The well, we turn those around. We don't want people to see those brands. The premium ones, we're going to like them from below. And you're poor with the label out. So your customers know you're getting a premium poor. There's a town involved. Callahan factories, the only thing keeping it alive. Look, believe it or not, I'm providing a service. I'm sending the corporate herd. You've seen Dr. Harry, the weaker animals always go. Sure, the kids cry when you tie old tiger to a tree and shoot them. But that's life. America's in a state of renewal. We got to have the strength to tie a few factories to a tree and bash them with a shovel. Meanwhile, if I can grab your share at a market, put a little coin in my pocket by being the asshole. Well, what the hell? Know what I mean? You sure are different in your TV commercials. What the American public doesn't know is what makes them the American public. All right. That's a fucking bar. It's the bar and it is tightly of the present. It spoke to me. This is a great monologue. He kills it. They're walking through a testing floor with weights being dropped on seats. I wonder if that'll come into play. Test cars slams into a wall here. I'll do my accent. Yeah, I love that. So Linsky says they're adding horsepower to American industry. Turns on a fan. Horsepower duck. It blows spades hair up. He's bald. Film noir. Tommy's shocked. This is like friendship. That's right. A movie that I mean liked. Yeah. I love that movie. Funny movie. It's funny when they did this, right? They did it funnier. Yes. Yeah. It's not funny here. Nope. To be clear. No, no, no. It wasn't funny. I didn't laugh. I don't doubt that. I also don't doubt you've got a massive stick up your ass right now. Like spade on the side of the road. That's a two by four that are mean head up his ass. Why don't you come pull it out? I'm right down the block asshole. Are you talking to your asshole that's got the stick in there? You're talking to me. I'll talk to you. Okay. You're going to come get this stick and then you want me to come to your asshole and pull the stick. Yes. Pull the stick out of it. Is it that you can't pull it out or you want me to do it? I want you to do it. All right. We got to wrap this pot up. TV's been good to him. He recites his tagline from the commercial truth is I'm a hell of a salesman and he doesn't know any better tells Tommy not to feel bad. You and your bald headed friend here. You did what you could. That's commendable has security. See them out and he walks into a conference room with bow and low. Oh, who waves by the Tommy cut to them sit on a bench tactical redundancy from Tommy on everything that happened and the bench collapses. Cut it done without that Tommy worried you let his dad down. Have you heard of his dad? Pop. Bates says he tried as hard as he could thought he would coast but he didn't. Dad would have been proud of you. When we first started this, I thought you'd walk through this like you walk through everything else. I was like, that's exactly what he did. No, that's exactly what he did. No, you missed the montages. He missed the turning point. The montage of him doing the same thing he was doing before confidence sales. I hate you guys. Man, you're fucking assholes. We are your fucking assholes. Yes, you are. Not only are you not doing good at this podcast, you're actively looking to talk about anything else, which is making it take way longer. Better podcast. Michelle shows up starts explaining what she saw. He's doing his mommy, not his mom. They're married. Line of your dad the whole time. Got police reports from my brother, the detective. They're con artists. They suckered him. Tommy sees the TV truck has an idea. Richard, I'm going to need your watch. I've got a plan. Yikes. He has a plan with the flares and Richard's watch. They go back to the building security says he can't let them up shows them what looks like a bomb strapped to his chest. It's the flares. My God. He's wired. Walks over the news team. Yells, excuse me. Guards drop again. The security guards look at each other and they go, it's just one of those days. Now we're in the boardroom. Beverly is flirting hard with Zelinski. Oh yeah, right in front of Rob low. Rob low does not like it. No, she's saying his hands move quickly. Only when I see something I want, Mrs. Callahan, Tommy Bussin TV cameras are live. Sandusky has the Chicago news on same note to rope. I love going live remote just like Rocky five. That's right. When they bring the camera to the bar, they're like, we're going to go live outside this bar in Philly. Rantlers. At least it was a local broadcast for a local audience. This is a local broadcast that gets beam to Sandusky, Ohio where everyone's standing. Absolutely. The whole country. Cause we cut to the first guy he sold to at home. Honey, look at this human bomb on the news. Oh yeah. I buy break pads off him. I thought we were watching cartoons changes it back to cartoons, cartoons at night, luxury guaranteed. Tommy puts Zelinski on blast for his commercial slogan, 300 workers at Callahan auto make the best parts money can buy. And right now those workers are in danger of losing their jobs praying somebody's going to step up and help them. I wanted them to react to the news like a player who just got traded and found out on Twitter. Hey, look at Tommy on TV. Wait, what do you say about us getting fired with the fuck? Is that why you strapped a bomb to your chest? This isn't a bomb. It's road flares. Did you live under power lines as a kid or something? Why? Cause you tore your ACL. Zelinski says we happy to look into helping the town. He says, Hey, tell you what, I can get a good look at a T bone by sticking my head up a bull's ass. But rather take the butchered word for it. Nailed it. Got it. It's the only improvement. The wings waitress ass or customers. You want this or American Gladiators? Everyone in unison gladiators fucking love American gladiators ass off for Helen's phenomenal golden dumpster for the scene. College Rose asks if he looks bloated. Camera adds a couple hundred pounds. Tommy explains they're not looking for a handout. They're offering a great deal. What kind of a deal? Order half a million Callahan breakpads made by the American working man for the American working man. And Zelinski agrees on live TV. Absolutely would be my great pleasure. I mean, what have I got to lose a great American product? Right. Factory guys freak out and cheer. Town's been saved. Zelinski signs it. What difference does it make? They shake hands, pick them up at Zelinski outlets all over North America. The reporter jumps back in tragedy averted. Town has been saved and Tommy Kathy Bates award yet again, putting up the shocker. Paul says he lost his shares to the bank. Doesn't have a right to be here. Fat boy. Shell bus says, was she just waiting outside? Yeah. Police report. They're married. Makes the marriage to big Tom illegal. So her shares belong to Tommy's. Zelinski knows he won't be selling him Callahan auto. Beverly plays dumb. Paul gets pissed. They've got more outstanding warrants for all kinds of fraud in different States. Paul runs out. They're chasing them. We go to the testing area. Oh, like before spade calls low. It's not over yet. Lee Harvey and low doesn't get the reference. Yeah. Frowns. He's confused by it. But he didn't kill low lands on the hood of the crash test dummy car. It takes off. Then they hit the brakes. And so I thought for a second year it was going to be, it's the other guy's breaks and that the brakes wouldn't work, right? But no, they work and they launch Rob low into the seat where a weight promptly crushes his balls. Comedy. Well, kid, you threw on by me. So this is the crazy part. Cops show up. The arrest Rob. What are you laughing at? Cause mazes Chicago accident. I was waiting for it. Savor the flavor dead guys. I sure as hell won't happen again. In our meantime, good luck to you. I love this too. This is another golden dumpster. He tells his guy to write Tommy a check and invites Bo to have a meal at his club. Then dictates a letter. Marty, find out where the police will be taking them. Send over a bottle of bubbly with a bucket of ice in the car. Have it say tough break. Get drunk on me. Use the bucket ice down your marbles. Here's the golden dumpster. So Rob low gets arrested and she gets to have lunch and get some dick. Well, he's got the fraud warrants. They just committed fraud right in front of everybody. Well, he committed fraud as far as they know. Zelensky gonna let it go. He's the one that's doing the deal. He's got fast hands. I mean, yeah, he does have fast hands. When he's got something he wants. Yep. Fastest hands in the game. Written hours as they're back in business. Michelle congratulates him. Kiss time. Spade. Oh, that was pathetic. Shut up, Richard. Got to the factory. They introduced new president of Callahan auto. It's Tommy, Tommy Jr. Now, not the third. That's right. I don't think you knock one off there. He jumped a generation. They're like family to him. Lewis and him built their first fort together him and Danny burnt ants with magnifying glasses. And it's all about the memories, man. RT. I lost my virginity to your daughter for crying out loud. Rob, you were there. I laughed RT's ass on. I love that. Rob, you were there. That's funny to me because Rob is smiling his ass off staring at RT and then when he says that he tries to run away. Yeah. As long as I'm around, I'm gonna bust my butt to make sure that every last one he always has a job right here at Callahan. Thanks to Richard about his two pay being loose. And then we cut to the boat with Tommy on it by himself. Talking to his dad needs some wind to get to Michelle's for dinner. Little Poppy talk. He's talking to his ghost dad. Oh, ghost dad. Oh, pop ghost dad, ghost dad, ghost dad. We get an angels in the outfield beats. We sure do. Final destination level, gust of wind that moves the sale. Yeah, fallen also. Hey, thanks dad. One more bit of head trauma, head trauma. Jib hits him son of a that's going to leave a mark roll credits. Seat belts fastened. Three tables in an upright position. Here we go. What lift off I mean when he gives up his shares, this is mean Richard are going to go on the road and sell the ship road trip. That's yours. Yeah. I mean, it's kind of Tommy went winging. Oh, I think it's big Tom shouldn't himself after he dies. Wow. Sorry. That was disrespectful as he dies. Which one happened first? That's a great question that he should himself and that's what caused the heart attack or although they don't even tell us that it's a heart attack. No, he's gone. He gone. You get the point. Yeah, you get it. We're from wedding to funeral. It's like what the yada yada shipping fucked up. You don't need to see that shit, man. You get it. Why don't you try telling us what the fuck happened? What summary 97 seconds on the clock. Zach, you chose this movie. That's right. Because we choose these movies that are on Pluto TV. Yep. It's my picks. I'll go first here. Sure, whatever. Three, two, one. We are in Sandusky, Ohio, Sandusky, Ohio. And Tommy boy is a kid who has a dad who runs the Callahan auto parts and Tommy gets to kind of get away with whatever he wants to just coast through life until he graduates college and he goes back home and he finds out that his dad is getting married and he's given his son an office at the auto parts factory. And now he gets to meet the woman of his dad's dreams, Bo Derek and she comes out of the pool and I mean, like that part of the movie. And so we go and we find out that they're at the wedding and there's a big celebration and, you know, everything's kind of hinging on these deals and everything. And there's even deals being made at the wedding and we're getting all kinds of jargon and catchphrases and KFB and all this stuff. And then they do a little celebration at the wedding, a little song and dance and big Tom dies. And now it's time for Tommy to save the factory by going and selling half a million brake pads, which are the future of the Callahan auto parts industry. And so he goes and it's not going well. He doesn't know how to sail. And then he gets to a point where he's at the clock bucket with Helen, the ass off waitress, and he figures out how to sell with confidence. And now we got montages, montages, he's selling everything saved except turns out Bo Derek and Rob Lowe, her quote, unquote son are actually married and they're doing each other and they're not mother and son. And so they figure it out. They find a way to get Dan Ackroyd to not buy the company away and actually make the order for half a million brake pads. And I just want to say dad, I love that. Mace can't wait for means, but I'll go. Sure. Three, two, one. We're back in college as college year continues. Young Tommy boy Callahan somehow passes his history to a one final with a D plus and graduates from Marquette in seven years, just like Van Wilder, but probably more accurate to Bert Krascher's actual experience. He returns home to Ohio where his father runs an auto parts plant and gets hooked up with a cushy job and a nice office with a window, much to the dismay of hardworking nerd employee Richard. His pop big Tom is eager to launch a new brake pad division and happily reveals to Tommy that his new step mom to be is a perfect 10. He met while out of fat farm at big Tom's wedding. He collapses in the middle of a temptation's dance number, dropping dead instantly and leaving the family business in dire straits. Unless Tommy can move a shit ton of brake pads, they'll sell the company, shut down the factory and devastate the town, which as we all know is when the horse come in. So Tommy ropes Richard into a sales road trip, the combo of Tommy's spasmodic and experience and Richard's smugness lead to a series of dead end sales calls. It's not until Tommy learns to treat every interaction like he wants chicken wings that they turn a corner and start making sales. They actually are about to save the company until Tommy's nefarious step mom and her secret son husband sabotage the sales. So Tommy heads to Chicago to stop savvy businessman Zalinsky from buying the company he does. He saves the day, he gets the girl and the gust of wind means his ghost dad is proud of him. Maze, could you not upload the quack quack quack onto the soundboard? Just changed it. Okay. Changing my shit up. Maybe I'll get a horsepower duck in there. Oh my God. Oh, you're gonna up the edge of your two bingos. Every once in a while, Zach Zags. This should be right up Zach's alley and he's like, no, I mean, it is an AI commercial. So I get it. I don't watch any of those videos, but it ambushed the shit out of me. Oh, three baby one, two, I don't want to do a countdown. Before I do the scene. No countdown. We'll just do off of action. Just in your own time. Good. I'm not a rocket ship. Okay. All right. In this country, we have a massive divide, right? There's divides along class divides on like social economic factors, mobility, whatever, party lines, but the biggest divide is between the shit that white boys in the 90s like and the rest of us. And this movie was one of those things that white boys in the 90s couldn't get enough of. I found out in the taping of this episode that this informed all the shit they did, whether it was using the term holy schnikeys, whether it's saying me likey or he's talking like in that little baby talk, adding wise at the end of words, all of these things. So paramount that existed before paramount to the white experience that even decades later it echoes and reverberates. And so when you look at ICE agents in Minneapolis, killing innocent people, when you think of the Epstein files and the people did horrible things, we think about all the people enabling this stuff, right? And 30 going into Congress and saying wild shit, as opposed to just, you know, I don't know, testifying. These are the people that loved Tommy boy. They couldn't get enough of Tommy boy. They were quoting it to each other. They were recording that shit and sending it in audio files and playing it again and again. So their roommate was not white. We'll fucking go crazy. 10. That's what this is all about. And so if you're someone who says, Oh, I can't believe it. Me hates Tommy boy. Ask yourself, why do you love pedophiles and murderers? Just want to remind people I mean, thinks Dion Richmond is hilarious. He's funnier than anybody in this fucking movie. Not true. Hands down. He's funnier than Dan Acre. Okay. See, I'm someone who can admit when I'm wrong. No, you can't. I just did. You're right. Dan Acre. It's funnier. We've got 302 previous episodes. I'll show you again. You still pretend to not like Harlem nights because you weren't paying attention and you phoned Harlem nights. I paid attention. It was a gross underuse of great comedic talent. And its moments, unlike this movie. Who cares if you lose the game? You got this off your chest. I mean, it's just one night of bar trivia. One night of bar trivia is Sankrasync. Tuss trivia is Sankrasync and boy, there is quite a bit Rob Lowe played the supporting role of Tommy stepbrother and is uncredited. The reason for this is because he wanted to be a quote happy surprise after the script shifted focus because the film was originally centered around the relationship between Tommy and Paul. Lowe was playing tennis with Lord Michaels and Michaels told him that he was about to start Tommy boy and that he was considering him to play Chris Farley's brother. He ended up taking the part as a favor for Michaels since he was previously in Wayne's world. At one point during production, scheduling conflicts almost forced Rob Lowe to drop out of the film. This resulted in the filmmakers holding impromptu auditions in Toronto. While the movie was already filming for the part of Paul bearish, Matthew McConaughey was one of the actors who auditioned, but it was decided that he wasn't the right fit for the role. Chris Farley with the Marquette and also played rugby at Marquette. His real jacket life imitating art based on true story. The original working title was Billy the third midwestern terrible. However, since Billy Madison was being developed around the same time and scheduled to be released a month before, Lord Michaels insisted they changed the name to avoid confusion. Other names considered included fat chance, Rocky Road and XL. Kevin James is greenlit all three movies. Seeking a Billy Madison Christian Slater was considered for the role of Richard. Chris Farley, though, pushed for one of his two SNL co-stars to play Richard David Spade or Adam Sandler. Sandler wound up shooting Billy Madison instead, and that's why Spade got the role. Tommy Boy was one of Paramount's top 10 bestselling videos of all time, making nearly $100 million in home video sales. Damn. You know what? Not to be outdone. This movie made it on Roger Ebert's most hated movie list. SNL writers James Downey, Jim Downey, and Fred Wolfe were hired to do a polishing of the Turner's original draft. When filming started, they had only written 66 pages and were rewriting pages daily. Downey had to go back to New York to do SNL full time, leaving Wolfe to assume full rewriting duties. Wolfe, Farley, and Spade were flying back and forth from New York to Toronto during production. At one point during the shoot, Wolfe was writing and faxing new script pages from his honeymoon in Hawaii. But Wolfe and Downey, despite rewriting almost the entire movie, were uncredited on the film. That's crazy. Hey, Zach, did you like Helen the Waitress? I did. Would you have liked it if it was played by Roseanne Barr? A little too abrasive. Yeah. Originally written for her, but she was unavailable. I agree with you. Roseanne would have been screechy and abrasive. What makes Helen feel great is this deadpan delivery. Yes, absolutely. How about Farrah Fawcett for the role of Beverly? Absolutely. Wilford Brimley was offered the role of Big Tom, but turned it down. I love Wilford Brimley. That's not him. Dan Ackroyd filmed all his scenes in just two days. Oh, so we now got Dan Ackroyd to work all in two days. Work a second day of work for Dan Ackroyd all in two days. Work yeah. According to multiple sources, including David Spade and Rob Lowe, Spade and Chris Farley's normally close friendship deteriorated during the film shoot, driven and exacerbated by the fact that the two were commuting back and forth between New York and Toronto so they can make this film while still doing Saturday Night Live. The most dramatic incident was when Loan Spade spent an evening hanging out without Farley, who had gone to bed. I don't know if we mentioned it. He was sober during the filming of this. And Farley spent the next day jealously bugging Spade about it and kept needling him, eventually resulting in Farley and Spade having a full on brawl with some accounts claiming Farley threw Spade into a wall like he was norm and down some stairs. Holy shit. In another incident, witnessed by Lo, Farley stepped on Spade sandwich, which prompted Spade to launch himself at Farley like he was Howard the Duck. As a result of all the tension, the pair would refuse to speak to each other or communicate only through intermediaries or even lock themselves in the trailers and refuse to come out if the other was on set. Holy shit. Yeah. The version I read didn't necessarily say that it was a thing that lasted beyond this movie, but they did fight during the movie. Next time I see Spade at the restaurant, I'll ask him. Chris Farley was completely sober during filming. However, because of this, he developed another addiction. Coffee, coffee, coffee, coffee, coffee. Capuccino. Farley would have up to 27 cappuccinos every day. What? Sometimes three at a time before every scene. I wonder if he fucking had an art attack. Cut that Blanton thing even again. Chugging one after the other. Sometimes double fisted. You know what I'm talking about. David Spade said the fat guy in a little coat routine began as an in joke between him and and Farley when a two-shared office working together at SNL. Farley would often break up the monotony of their writing time by repeatedly pranking Spade with the idea. He would always insist he had new material to show Spade, then turn around and reveal it to once again be the fat guy in a little coat joke. Spade said he and Farley decided to use it for this movie thinking that if it was funny to them, it may be funny to others as well. I figured it out. Okay. Farley insisted that he do his own comedic stunts for Tommy Boy. The film crew said they would get a professional stuntman for the flat on your face stunt on Tommy's famous kill the table stunt at the fraternity party, which is even painful to watch. Farley said, no way. I'll do it myself, which became one of the more iconic scenes in the movie. Impressively in behind the scenes footage of the take, Farley was able to get up almost immediately after and seemed no worse for the wear. The housekeeping scene that I did in the 80s was an actual prank that David Spade would pull on Chris Farley. Every morning in the hotel they were staying at during filming, Spade would repeatedly knock on Farley's door while he was sleeping and go housekeeping and Farley would get more and more irritated and then would open the door in a fury only to see that it was just spade. Farley fell for this joke every morning. Chris Farley tended to be very shy around women, especially attractive women. He was very cutesy and timid around Julie Warner. At first she thought he was just doing shtick, but he would keep acting like that every day, making it difficult for her to talk to him. At one point she pulled him into her trailer and they would stay there until he was able to have a full on conversation with her. It took four hours, but he eventually did it. They talked about sports and his father, pop, among other things. After that he was able to have casual conversations with her. Right after Tommy boy, Chris Farley was being offered movies left and right. Director Peter Segal read some of the scripts and thought they were terrible. Chris ushered Peter to come on one of the movies and direct one, but Peter refused because the script was so bad. This made Chris very mad as he thought Peter didn't like him anymore. This is a Peter to write a seven page apology letter to Chris saying how he was wrong and that Peter doors him. Peter also said in the letter that he's talented enough to be nominated for an Oscar. Wait a pull back there. And he just needs to choose his projects more wisely. Chris then forgave him and then promptly died right after he forgave him. Yeah. Before he could take the advice. Before he could win the Oscar in the scene where Rob Lowe was washing the mud off Tommy, it was below 20 degrees Fahrenheit. Farley wore a wetsuit under his clothes to keep from freezing. Tommy boy is one of Quentin Tarantino's favorite comedies. He owns a 35 millimeter print of the film and sometimes screens it at parties at his house in between looking at women's feet and saying the N word while writing the N word. He doesn't actually say it. He just writes it. Oh, he says he writes it a lot while filming Tommy boy. Chris Farley and David Spade stayed at the same hotel as Adam Sandler because he was simultaneously filming Billy Madison in Toronto, Canada. They sometimes spent their evenings hanging out and having fun together. Zach, this is the origin of grownups and every sound and movie ever since. Hey, what if we could recreate that shit where people are paying us to hang out with one another? Here's my favorite trivia. Bo Derek's late husband, John Derek was very protective of her and very jealous man. He made her cut all her hair off the day before she showed up on the set. John Derek, AKA the bitch husband. Whoa. Bo Derek was nominated for a 1996 Razzie for worst supporting actress. She lost to Madonna in four rooms. It took the film crew five weeks to get the shot of the deer standing on the car. They gave a car to a trainer who fed a deer and let it eat and poop in and around the car for a month. So the deer could get used to it before they could bring in cameras and get the shot they needed right before Richard hits the deer. There's a close up shot of its legs walking as the car is coming towards it. That was actually a goat with its legs spray painted brown and its stomach taped up. What they were shooting during mating season and it was impossible to train the deer. So they decided a goat's legs looked closest to a deer nailed it during the party scene in the beginning of the movie. You can notice a giant scar on Chris Farley's right forearm. The story behind that is that one night in Chicago about a year or two prior he got very drunk with an actress friend of his. While drinking from the mini bar in his 17th floor hotel room the woman sees that Chris is getting too drunk and tells him to stop. He then got mad and charge at her. She ducked. That's a duck man and his arm busted straight through a window. He only broke the top pane which prevented him from falling out. He then was rushed to the hospital as his forearm is split open from wrist to elbow. In the hospital room he was so drunk and high on pain pills that he began to mindlessly pick at the bone in his arm. This incident would lead to his second out of many stints and rehab. On the list showing the exam grades of the students at the beginning of the movie one of the names is Helen Keller who scored an F. Oh, I mean doesn't like this movie. You'll also see Michael Jackson. He got a D plus Helen Keller and everything. I'd like you all to do an experiment on a plan something that may benefit mankind and if you would devise something that groundbreaking I guarantee you a A in this course. Oh, hold on man. You following me? You can't do that Lionel. Look man, if you don't want me to have a foreman job I understand but I need my fucking job man. Lewis Pinock Axon Award, David Spade Housekeeping or Dan Akroy Chicago or May's Crossover. May's Chicago. May's Chicago. May's Chicago. It's Dan Akroy Chicago. It's May's Chicago to the one. To the one asshole. Nine to five. You got to make a mockery of this very hallowed institution. Let's show them who the horsemen are guys. Yeah, we got soul. Five horsemen. Poppy talk. Ah, he said it. Head trauma. Catch phrase. Fatley montage. It's ah, he said it. Yeah, it's how he said it. It does slow down but it's still enough that we get a plurry at the end. Yeah, I said Poppy talk or head trauma but okay. Poppy talks up there too. Head trauma is up there too. Breathe. Into nose. Out the mouth. Ass on. Ass off. Teddy Rex. Moosey Teddy Rex. Teddy Rex. Moosey Teddy Rex. Ass on. Fuck it. Ass off. Ass on. Fuck it. Ass off. Michael B. Memorial Ass on award. Bo Derek is Beverly Burns bearish or William Dunlop as R. T. R. T. R. Motherfucking T, man. We locked that shit in. He Dunlopped Bo Derek. He got three different scenes and every one he was ass on. I believe she wanted Zelinsky. I think she had moments when she was ass on but she had a lot of moments when she was ass off. Fast hands. Yeah. Check this out. $1,100 is exactly what I charge for acting classes. No it isn't. Yeah. Well what are the chits? Universe. You've done it again. Carl Leathers Memorial Ass Off Award. Chris Farley is Tommy Callahan the third. Brian Dennehy is Big Tom Callahan or Dan Ackroyd as Razelinsky. Helen the waitress. She's great. The whores are coming to town lady and her husband the two of them. Oh yeah. I'd go Dennehy. Especially the no she's mine. Is this for me dad? That's for me. That's for me. I did really like Zelinsky though. I thought Ackroyd was great. Yeah. Yeah. He's fantastic. It was two days work. That's right. Dennehy was at least there for five. Exactly. It has Dennehy as Thomas Big Tom Callahan Jr. And Farley is the third but then at the end he's junior. They broke up. You're good at keeping secrets. Absolutely. Because I've got a present for you. Secret present outside by the dumpster. Is it a baseball mitt? Fit you like a baseball mitt like a glove. I hope. Golden dumpster nominees. Of course I could get a hell of a good look at a T-bone steak by sticking my head up a bull's ass but I'd rather take the butcher's word for it. The old lady board member and that's when the whores come in. Tommy want wingy. Fat guy little coat. The bank security guards. Zelinsky talking about thinning the herd and fitness and then Zelinsky's dictated letter. Sincerely Z. In addition I got the deer waking up from its coma and screaming. Also ass off. Primes the in comic dog moment. Got to look at this photograph. So you're big animal puppets in this movie. And Helen the waitress saying you guys want this or American Gladiators. Zach where are you going. It's tough to beat the board member. The whores are coming to town. Yeah. Are we sweeping that one. Yeah I think so. I want to shout out Helen but yeah. It's so funny. I like the Zelinsky scenes. The Tommy want wingy is classic. That guy in a little coat. Brothers got a hug. There's a lot of good moments but I laughed really loud when that lady started talking about the horse. You know what I mean. Oh my god it's so funny. It's so funny. Yeah it is a legitimately funny scene line delivery everything 10 out of 10. That's why you laugh loud. Yeah and the little orcs who are just like everything mean does it's the best. You can save your fucking DMs. I'm not answering them. I'm not reading them. Flood his DMs. I want him to open his Instagram and not see shit. Yeah. Flood it with nine nine DMs. Flood it. You guys know what to do internet. If you're trying to quote yourself. Myself. I am. You fucked it up. I know. Okay. Hammy. Hammy. Hold on a second. Oh hold on. Hold on. Well Zach even though it's Pluto TV here you picked it motherfucker. I sure did. Motherfucker. I like that. Over file. It's a file. I love it. It's a funny movie. It makes me laugh. I enjoy it. It hits a nostalgia thing. It's still funny to me though. Enough great parts in it. I love Chris Farley. It's an easy file. So it held up for you. It's not as funny as I thought it was when I was 13 but yes it's still funny to me. Okay. It's a million times funnier than white chicks. Not even close. See the box office. I'll go. I definitely didn't see it in the 90s. I don't know when I saw it for the first time and this might be the only time I've seen it front to back. Back to front. Is that better for you? What do you want? Well, I mean when he dug in one of many times in this episode and was really hammering us about is this funny to you? Is this funny to you? Do you think this is funny with the model cars? Like I said, I appreciate Farley's commitment to the bit. Yeah. He's committed to the bit. He goes hard. He's spending a lot of energy is him being in an airplane bathroom trying to get changed into a suit. Funny, not super funny, but he fucking goes for it. Probably the best filmed example of him or movie example of his comedy. I thought Acron was great. I thought Denny. He was great. I thought the rapport between him and Spade had some good moments and it's good use of Spade. This is the best David Spade. Yeah. Low bar, but it's the best one. It's a file for me, man. I mean, so I'm with you. I can respect. We talked about it last week, I think Spade and Dickie Roberts. They want to do physical comedy, but they've got a stuntman. Right. I can't respect even your attempt for that because you're not actually doing it. I respect this. Hell out of Farley going for it. Like you said, particularly the physical stuff. We did the trivia. He's doing stunts. He's falling into the tables. He's hitting himself in the head. He's doing whatever it takes. But I can respect it and also say that shouldn't make me laugh. It wasn't funny. That's one of the easiest folks I've ever had ever in the history of Cinnopope. I can blame your roommate who you had some kind of interest with that you mentioned. I blame you MP threes. Yeah. MP threes of this movie. Probably is that the downloaded MP threes of it. And so blame Napster too. You could send us your Fulver file, your golden dumpster ass on ass off, your five horsemen, your Lewis pinoc, your plot lift off. At talk hoops at Darth Amin at corn puzzle at Cinnophobe pod at count the dings or drop it in our discord by being patreon members patreon.com slash count the dings next time we make love. You introduced me to Jay. I think you say also is that you dropped this. Oh, the guys means little minions or whatever. I fully expect to be on an island on this one. Oh, people love this movie. Yeah, it's a great movie. I don't know why it's not. It's awful. I think you conflate it with Billy Madison. Like Billy Madison is not funny. Man, there's not a funny part of Billy Madison. Do you understand there are those rows from the 90s that do like it? They love that shit. This is a billion times funnier than Billy Madison. You know what? I'll take your word for it because Billy Madison is another movie I haven't seen in 20 years. But if you have to draw the Venn diagram of people like Billy Madison and people like this movie, you don't think them shits is goddamn almost the same circle? No, you think it's a lot of people are like, oh no, fuck Billy Madison. Tommy boy. Yes, that's my hope for America. As Tom Habistrow. I bet you he likes Billy Madison. He might. All right, Zach, what did Pluto fire up for your algorithm? My three suggestions cone heads. Sam. Yes. My boss's daughter. Sam. No. A very Brady sequel. I had cone heads, Brady sequel, and then Dickie Roberts. I had Dickie Roberts cone heads and my boss's daughter. Interesting. Okay. This is my two cents. Let's do my boss's daughter just so we can get out of the 90s, man. I've never seen a very Brady sequel. I thought about cone heads, which I've also never seen, but I don't want to keep doing David Spade. I don't remember cone heads being enjoyable. I've also never thought the cone heads sketch was that funny. Oh, what did it appear that sketch? Was that on the living color? I don't remember. Don't talk about life. Oh, you know what? Fuck it. Pick cone heads as little as a mean deserves what he wants to happen here. Pick cone heads. I am going to pick my boss's daughter as the next movie. Terry baby. We're back. So my boss's daughter and you guess it, it's still on Pluto TV.
