A VERY ROUGH TRANSCRIPT OF THE EPISODE
PROVIDED BY OTTER.AI
Collin 0:05
Welcome to Oh Brother, a podcast where we try to figure it all out with your hosts Brandon and Collin on this week's show, Hobo Cat Friends. Ahoy! Ahoy! What's going on? Oh, not a lot. How are you? I in between and in between allergy medications right now, so I may have to ride the meat switch.
Brandon 0:33
That's that's all right, right? This is what happens when the temperature just drops like 20 degrees all of a sudden. Like, well, surprise! I mean, now listeners, that sounds dramatic, but we've gone from 100 to 80. So, like, big drop, but still, that does mean the nighttime temperatures, though, are actually in the 60 s. Sometimes, it's very exciting development, right? The nighttime temperatures are not 80, which is wonderful. Oh
Collin 1:03
my goodness, I know. And we like as soon as we saw the cliff coming for the temperatures plummeting into the you know into the low 80s, low 80s. We were like, you know what? We're gonna do it. We're gonna I'm gonna cut the air conditioning. I'm not gonna use air conditioning in my house. We're just gonna coast on in, and man, let me tell you, I was like, surely.
Brandon 1:24
How'd that go?
Collin 1:25
Well, so my house is old. It is well documented that it is nigh on.
Brandon 1:31
That's true. We've mentioned it a time or two. Yes,
Collin 1:32
106 years old. It does not hold heat well. It does not hold cool well. It does not maintain temperature at all. However, apparently this season that we are in right now, my house is like yes, yes. This is the season that I. This is
Brandon 1:49
this right now is house homeostasis. Look at that. Yes, we have found
Collin 1:53
homeo house stasis exactly, and it's like
Brandon 1:58
house geostasis.
Collin 1:59
Houseio stasis. Yeah, we teach workshop that. They just get that for free. It was like, oh, you want me to maintain a constant 78 to 80-degree temperature, no matter what is going on outside? Apps, I got you. I got you. Right, like I was like it's like what it is. It is like 66 degrees outside, and my house is like 78. How about that? Would you like that a little bit? We have had our upstairs windows open for three days. Wow! My house temperature has not dipped below 77. Wow! You
Brandon 2:40
really have achieved homeostasis. This is crazy.
Collin 2:43
I'm like, wait a minute. You were supposed to like get maintain, like get equilibrium with the outside because I made the outside the inside, right? Now the like no, no, no. My house is let's just
Brandon 2:57
with the breathing and the hot air rising through up to the upper floor and then being vented outside, and it's just it's just a little convection current in your house. Look at that! Look how fun that is. Exactly, it's drawing up the
Collin 3:09
heat from the bed from the downstairs. So my downstairs is becoming the upstairs. The upstairs is just going out, I guess. Oh man! And so it's been it's been nice, like it has. I have enjoyed it. I'm. I definitely am all about opening windows as much as you humanly can for as long as you can. I was just hoping for a little bit more, like
Brandon 3:33
a more cool, a more cool house. Well, I mean, if it goes down like a degree or two more, it might. You know, it might, it might get there, right? That'd be okay. No, right? So you have some, you have some leeway here. I think we are from
Collin 3:47
moving in that direction. But yes, I was just, it was just my brain was like, oh, and obviously I'm going to open up all the windows, and the house will like cool down. It'll be nice. Like it is that? No, no, no. It's that has not happened At all, exactly.
Brandon 4:03
Well, drat, but you know, you know, are moving in the direction, so that's good.
Collin 4:09
Yes,
Brandon 4:10
that's good. So yeah, we. I really haven't done anything really very exciting since the last time we talked. So we've just been After the most pointless conference in the entire world, which also, just so you know, I have also talked to other people and they share my opinion. Okay, like that I work with. Okay, it is not just it's not just me being salty. Okay, it's also other people being salty. Okay, so I just wanted to make it known. This is not an opinion shared exclusively by me. Okay, this is important.
Collin 4:49
Fair. That's good that you have. You know, we're crowdsourcing some. Yeah, got more
Brandon 4:55
feedback here. You know, so it's fine. Yeah, other than that, really. I don't know. I'm just trying to like do this week, and then tomorrow is, of course, every sixth grader's favorite day of school, picture day. So got to survive picture day tomorrow.
Collin 5:13
Oh no! See how that extra like homes and extra? Absolutely
Brandon 5:18
not! Absolutely not! What do you think I teach? Second grade? No, get out of here. That's how this works. You got to come to school. You got to have classic classic setup tomorrow. Right? Tomorrow is also a PE day, so that'd be cool. Usually, though, like he knows it's pictures, so like they're not gonna really do anything tomorrow. But like it's still like it always falls. Yeah, somebody's got be on picture day every time, right? It's always happens. So you know, so that's tomorrow. So we got to deal with weird scheduling shenanigans because like there's always like a tentative schedule, right? But because sometimes, like they kind of go in like grade level order. So like when we get to school, like the kindergarteners go first. This is fair, right? Get them in, go. Like, and so we go a little bit later. But like, it kind of always depends. Like, are we we have a time? But the time is like a fluid situation, right? Sometimes, you know, we get in early because they they're able to like bust out all the little kids, and it's fine, blah blah. And sometimes the little kids don't do well, and it gets pushed back. You know, so we get this limbo of like, okay, at some point in this 30-minute section, they're gonna come for us, right? And usually, like a high school yearbook person just comes to the door and goes, "Okay, we're ready, and then that's it. Like that's the
Collin 6:58
nice. Okay, they're
Brandon 7:00
like, "Be downstairs in five minutes. I'm like, okay, got it. And it's like last ditch. Like, go comb your hair. Let's get in line. Let's go, Roger, Roger. Yeah, Roger, Roger. Get in line. So that's that's sort of the plan. So that's really that's really all we're doing this week. Haven't done really anything exciting. So to augment that, Collin, before we get to the main event in a little bit, yes, can I interest you in a very short 1980s mecca OVA?
Collin 7:33
Absolutely, by chance, right? Please do. This is what I'm here for. All right, so like
Brandon 7:41
to get the flow, this apparently is a bit of an obscure one. There does not even exist a Wikipedia page for this.
Collin 7:50
Oh,
Brandon 7:51
yeah,
Collin 7:52
that you have may have fallen into a very go into a crack
Brandon 7:55
here. Yes, this is not
Collin 7:57
good. Yeah, I
Brandon 7:58
mean it's yeah, it's weird. I mean, there's not a. I couldn't find any Wikipedia page, and most of the things that you can find online to read about it are in Japanese, which is not.
Collin 8:11
Makes it a bit difficult.
Brandon 8:12
Great. Um, like this is Dragon's Heaven.
Collin 8:21
Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay.
Brandon 8:23
Right. So, like, this is. Um, I'm gonna say it. I don't say this very often. Okay. Everyone knows this. Longtime listeners know. This is not a phrase I'm gonna say lightly. Okay. This thing is too short, right? It's not long enough. It's really like the runtime says 40 minutes. That's inaccurate. About 30, right? Like, so there could be more weird robot action in this movie, right? So basically, basically the gist is this, right? Some somehow we are in post-apocalyptic Brazil, which looks suspiciously like a giant desert. Okay, whatever. Okay, but it's like 3195.
Collin 9:24
Ooh, that's a bit
Brandon 9:25
okay. So far distant future, right? Um, but there's this like robot, right? So it's not exclusively mech, right? But it'll make sense in a minute. Again, I make the rules. Who cares? So there's like a there's like autonomous robot. There was like some sort of like robot human war thing that happened, right? And it was not like robots versus humans, but it was like different factions of robots and humans fighting together. I think right, maybe, and sort of loosely explained. Anyway, this. Robot whose name is like Xian or something. He is designed. He's like a he's like a fully autonomous robot, but he is designed to have a human co-pilot, right? So like he is like he's this big, beefy, like massive like tank-looking thing, and he's like fully autonomous, like whatever. But like he is designed to have a human in a cockpit, like in his little chest thing or whatever, right? And so during the during the war, the pilot dies. Sadly, right? And so like he goes into like shutdown mode because there's no pilot, right? And then like 1000 years pass somehow, and he like a random lady like comes by, and he his sensors pick up this human movement, and he wakes up, right, and like they team up, kind of right, and so now they're like buddies, and he like helps her do things. There's like a nearby is like some sort of like outposty town situation, and you know they're kind of there. They're doing some stuff. It turns out that his nemesis from this war 1000 years ago is also still around. Oh, nemesis guy. Okay, right. Nemesis guy is like he looks like he's like this really gangly, stringy robot that whose head looks sort of like a boombox, and he is designed to like fight alone, right? So you do have like the hint of this like rather interesting thing where like the bad guy robot guy is like a solo war machine, but good guy robot guy is supposed to team up with humans. In and when he's teamed up with somebody, he's like way stronger, right? He like gains power. He gains the power of friendship or something. I don't really know. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. And so, like, they team up, and then they fight off some like random baddies, and he gets like slightly hurt. And then, while he's being repaired, he gives he like hooks her up with like some sort of like weird mech hard suit that looks like really bizarre, and gives her like his like super mega gun because while she's wearing the armor, she can fire the super mega gun. It's like the dragon's breath gun. That's why it's called this, and it's like it's like the Buster Rifle from Gundam Wing, right? It's like it's like like it just I love this. Destroys literally everything, right? And so, like they they do this, and then, but they're the fact that they are like defeating these random roving robot forces draws the attention of bad guy robot guy, right? And he comes,
Collin 13:17
and he's on look. Yeah,
Brandon 13:19
he's on the lookout, he sends the fleet, right? And the initial fleet, she just like blasts with the giant rifle of doom.
Collin 13:29
Oh, oh no!
Brandon 13:31
Yeah, and he like he like wakes up from stasis like the other bad guy robots that he used to fight with, right? And they come, and it's a whole thing, and there's like a showdown, and bad guy, robot guy gets obliterated, but somehow, good guy, robot, and girl survive, and like it's like just over, and you're like, wait, wait, what? Why we could have some more robot fighting, you know. That would be cool. Like we, you know, we could have some more of this random thing. Like 10 more minutes. That's all I wanted. Like every damn.
Collin 14:11
Well, because yeah, because it's like you kind of you kind of like part of the the mech tech anime is the are the fight scenes. Like they yeah. That's what you want to see. You want to see a bad one, you know.
Brandon 14:23
Yeah, and like the art style in this is like pretty unique, anyway, right? So it's not. It's like a very unique like art style and like very unique like all kinds of stuff and like this is like over. You're like, oh, oh, okay, well, that's cool, but like,
Collin 14:41
what else?
Brandon 14:42
Buy more minutes, like, but I had like a little bit more robot fighting. Yeah, I have like a little bit more robot fighting. Just like a little bit more. Yeah, it's like really detailed. It's like a very interesting style. The colors are. Like it's very like it's very unique art style, but like it's a bit short, right? It's a bit short. The opening scene is like really weird too. It's like actually like a live action shot weird thing, and it's like all it's like the robot like waking up, and it's all like this really arty like crazy thing that goes on for like three whole minutes, and you're like, "Hmm, I could have thought of this and more robot fighting. Really, if we're being honest, but but it's kind of crazy. So yeah, so I I randomly stumbled upon Dragon's Breath. Oh, and the music is banging because you know it's from 1988. So like,
Collin 15:38
you know,
Brandon 15:39
obviously, like
Collin 15:41
synth going on in there. There's some good absolutely. Yeah, yeah,
Brandon 15:44
yeah. Soundtrack's excellent.
Collin 15:48
Very excited, but
Brandon 15:49
it's really extremely random. It's like I don't know how this guy recommended to me, but I'm not mad about it. Right, I'm not mad at all. So there you go. The review is short because those are the things. But it's
Collin 16:05
oh my. Well, it sounds like it was all. That's all I've been
Brandon 16:09
up to this week. One of the
Collin 16:10
one of the better ones that you've watched too, given the tone that you're kind of reviewing it at.
Brandon 16:17
Yeah, I did like this one better than I can't remember when I watched last time, like. But this one's pretty good. Yeah, I like this
Collin 16:25
one. Oh, yeah,
Brandon 16:26
I like the. I kind of like the the very like. I didn't know that just like there was like random standalone like OVAs that exist that are like very short and like kind of wacky, and then that's it. Like, okay, moving on. Like, what? Like, without
Collin 16:42
being connected to some broader universe or whatever. Yeah, yeah. But it's kind of. Yeah, I'm in the
Brandon 16:47
middle of something else right now that I'll get finished with eventually. And oh my god, it's the most confusing thing of all time. So spoilers for later. But like, what in the world? What? Which is the other reason why I think I'm speaking so highly of this is because like, like oh yeah, I watch like Bubblegum Crisis is cool, but like doesn't really make a lot of sense, right? So it's like pretty and cool looking, but like story.
Collin 17:10
Yeah, what's
Brandon 17:11
that? Never heard of her, right? And then this other thing I'm watching is just like really a lot, and I don't. And so this was like ah short, sweet bang, got him. Like so that that might be the other reason for the tone, right? Just because this this other thing is like apparently it's like very important and but it's very dense and it's very like like there's a lot of there's a lot of long, drawn out plus parts where like not a lot is happening. So yeah, not really watching it slowly, fast
Collin 17:50
over those parts. Yeah.
Brandon 17:53
Oof, oof.
Collin 18:00
Sorry, so more on that later. Just a little
Brandon 18:02
sneak peek behind the curtain, ladies and gentlemen.
Collin 18:04
Like it, okay. So there you go. So
Brandon 18:08
other than house homeostasis, what has Collin been doing? Well,
Collin 18:11
we have been in the thick of well, one of the things that we added this this week, we went and we volunteered at our local animal shelter, aha! Where we part of our homeschool co-op. They went out there to do that, and that one that was a hey, not coming out to do the deep cleaning or that kind of stuff. It's hey, why don't we come out and let's socialize with the animals? Get a bunch of kids and socialize the animals, and this was immediately met with. Here is the the barrier to entry is you must think do things like fill out a form in order to attend to this tough stuff, and some sixth graders
Brandon 19:00
well ineligible already. Like can't.
Collin 19:03
Some parents refused. You refuse to fill out the form and put information on there. Ah, and I'm like, look, I get it. If your if your child gets mauled by one of these cats or one of these dogs, they're probably going to want to know like some information about you to know who to contact. So, like
Brandon 19:24
who you are. You
Collin 19:25
know, they'd probably appreciate that. Ivy phone number. Yeah. So I was like, whatever. We're putting our information down, and we went in there and did did this, and it was an hour of holding kittens, is what this was? We did an hour of holding kittens. Oh no!
Brandon 19:43
What some your children would definitely not like that. Oh man,
Collin 19:48
literally, literally the worst thing. Actually, the worst thing was, in fact, that you could only have one kitten out at a time. Okay,
Brandon 19:55
that is tragic because,
Collin 19:57
as it turns out. Some of the cats have don't like other cat tags on their cat. Okay, that's fair. Yeah, that is a cat thing, right? Like, yeah, always get along. This is a
Brandon 20:12
known cat being. This is a known thing. Like, ooh, another cat. Gross.
Collin 20:17
Why would you exist? Yeah, but there is I. Yeah, exactly. You're taking up MySpace, so that was a thing, and I I experienced the thing. Okay, this will be a callback to longtime listeners, aka last episode, where okay, picture this: I'm in a room with seven kids and three adults, and is anyone monitoring the number of cats that are being taken out of their kennels?
Brandon 20:49
No, I may. I thought there might be one person trying to monitor this, and it's not going well. Is anyone
Collin 20:56
monitoring the to make sure that when a gate gets shut on a kennel that it is actually latched.
Brandon 21:03
Oh, oh no, no. Is
Collin 21:04
there anyone that is monitoring the door that you can just come in and out of to make sure there's no cat? Oh dear! Right. Okay. This is this has
Brandon 21:13
gone downhill in a hurry. Yeah. Like all gone wrong.
Collin 21:17
So what we have just described is a vacuum of order, and I
Brandon 21:26
were you present for these by any chance?
Collin 21:28
I was. Were you trying to
Brandon 21:29
fill said vacuum? I did
Collin 21:31
fill the vacuum. Okay, that's what I thought. Yeah,
Brandon 21:33
I see where it's going.
Collin 21:35
I filled it so well that at 1.1 of the parents turned to me and said, "So do you guys take care of outside in the county too? And I went, "What? I
Brandon 21:45
don't work here, lady. I'm just a professional. She said, "Do you
Collin 21:50
do you take care? Will you take pets from out the county? And I went, "Ah, I don't work here. She looked at me, and she looked down, and she looked up, and I said, "But I do know the answer to that question. The answer is no. They'll only do within the city limits. And she was like, "Wait, you don't work here? And this, this was what she actually said. She said, "You were watching that door so well.
Brandon 22:19
Yeah, when it's like you know, just because I don't work here doesn't mean that watching pets isn't my job. You know, like
Collin 22:27
here's my card. Yeah, yeah. Perhaps you've
Brandon 22:31
heard of me.
Collin 22:31
Yeah, my pet sitter hat. Hello. And it was basically like you're stand the way you stood there and looked at that door. I thought you worked here, and I was like, "Hey, that's what it's all. That's all thanks. Oh my gosh! Like I
Brandon 22:47
am a professional man.
Collin 22:48
I am professional. Please stand back. Yeah, yeah. More. Let the pros work here. It's fine. We got six feet of room to really work at this out. No, no. And this was enjoyed. So this was enjoyed so much by my children that we went back today to to the exact same thing. Oh,
Brandon 23:11
independent cat holding.
Collin 23:13
Independent. It was a real stretch. It was real stretch to really you know like, hey, what do you want to do today? I mean, I was. I bet
Brandon 23:21
it was real tough to get him to return. Right? Someone, Mary's daughter was like, "Ah, you know, Dad, I just, I don't know, said that
Collin 23:28
thing. It was actually if I could do
Brandon 23:30
that again.
Collin 23:31
Turns out, it was actually on a birthday list of things to do today. Well,
Brandon 23:41
dear, I guess is is
Collin 23:42
exactly exactly what that is. So we we went back and tucking everybody in, and so we we we've got a system down. We start in the upper right, and we work on those those those cats, and we work our way to the to the left, bringing them out as they want to and are able and capable of, and then if we have time, we just repeat. We rinse and repeat. We just keep going through because sometimes they'll be like, "I'm kind of done, or the cat will get start getting a little and need to chill out. So yeah, yeah. And so we want to make sure that everybody gets out who wants to get out has a has a chance to. So we're working through everybody, and the kids were very focused on winning over hot tamale today. Oh, oh, we had a
Brandon 24:28
goal in everything. Had a goal. Yep, hot
Collin 24:30
tamale. When you opened the door, was like sucked way back against the far back corner of the kennel. Didn't like kiss or anything, but was not interested in coming out and saying hi, so we did like wrap in a blanket and pull the cat out, and the cat just suction cupped right to your chest and was like, "I'm here now, and didn't want to move, didn't want anything, which was you know obviously just the worst thing possible to have to carry around a kitten that wanted to be right on. Chest and not move at all. Like, ugh, who would want both my kids? Oh yeah, man! I bet
Brandon 25:05
they were just so upset.
Collin 25:07
My only cat that I want to hold, and I'm like, no, we have to take. And hash brown wants out, and Vidalia is over here. She needs to get out. And
Brandon 25:16
what failed food name? Both have to.
Collin 25:18
I know. I know. I yeah, one was named Flaming, who was it? Flaming Flaming Cheeto. There was yeah Hot Tamale, yeah all sorts of cats. I know I know.
Brandon 25:35
I think the workers are hungry and they just need some snacks, man. Like oh my god,
Collin 25:39
I will sponsor your snack station. I think is what I'm looking. Yeah. Oh man. So anyway, that was that was our kind of oh, and we also went on a walk, and a cat followed us for the entire walk. So that was obviously totally unrelated. Like time to go back. Oh no! Seriously. Okay. So the aforementioned discussion about we're opening windows, but I'm also opening front and back doors. Megan and I are sitting in our front of our sitting room at the house, and all of a sudden we look up, and there is Anne Cat sitting by our bookcase.
Brandon 26:13
Oh,
Collin 26:15
just like
Speaker 1 26:17
wait a minute,
Collin 26:17
hanging out, and we're like, hello, where, where, where, where you were? Why are you here? And the cat's just like, hey, walking back through our dining room. It's going through our kitchen, and I'm like, hold on, you need to. And we, you know, get the cat. We take it outside, and I'm like, well, I don't want to shut the door, and I don't have a screen, and so you know, of course, you put the cat out, and it's like, well, I was inside, so that's where I'm headed. Yeah, so yeah, I went
Brandon 26:49
no.
Collin 26:50
Why would I? I don't think so. I want to be on the inside because that's fine. Good grief!
Brandon 26:58
What the heck?
Collin 26:58
Oh, so then I was like, "Oh, we gotta shut the door now! And then we shut the door, and the cat just suctioned right up to the door. And of course, we're just on
Brandon 27:08
the porch, like, "Hello,
Collin 27:10
staring in. And then, of course, the cat or sorry, the dog is now like right at the door, and it has shoved its nose in the door jamb in this just like, yeah, like taking these mass, like, like what are you doing here? What are you like breathing? Really taking it all in. It was great. Grief.
Brandon 27:32
Cinnamon turns into like the predator, right? Like,
Collin 27:34
like, yeah, yeah. Look at the heat, heat stuff. But anyway, yeah. Well, that was our that was our big thing. Was going to the taking care of cats this week was our nice really thing. Yeah, I know. I
Brandon 27:50
I have a cat update actually.
Collin 27:52
What?
Brandon 27:52
Yeah. So like, I didn't really. This happened today. So like, maybe you remember a few weeks ago, right? We had the epic cat rescue,
Speaker 2 28:02
yes, from
Brandon 28:02
the parking lot, right?
Collin 28:03
Yes, absolutely.
Brandon 28:04
And so we just Susan asked the lady the other day. She was like, "Hey, how is the cat? So it had gotten to her this girl's mother's house and then had promptly run away, right? And they didn't see it for a few days, but it turns out it didn't actually run that far away. Oh, it was sort of skulking around the perimeter, and when it realized that this new location had an abundance of food, it was like, oh, okay, never mind. All right, I'm good. I'm gonna stay here. So it has has rejoined society and is now chilling with their other cat that they have. They're just like vibing, and they are now buddies. Apparently, hilariously, both cats found as hitchhikers of underneath car wash. So apparently, they they they're bonding over their transient lifestyle, right? Like hobo cat friends, right? Like I don't know, like it's really
Collin 29:10
weird. Seriously, that's exactly what I was thinking. It's like oh, this is this is this is the start of a Pixar film.
Brandon 29:16
I think so, right? I really feel like yeah, this is there's a children's book here somewhere, so like that is the that is the vibe. So that is the cat update, right? So I didn't know there was a cat update, but there we go. Boom. See, you didn't know, didn't know. Well, um,
Collin 29:41
I know that that kind of experience that you have with a cat sounds like it's pretty disastrous to begin. It
Brandon 29:48
was, you know, for the cat mostly. The cat, traumatic, disastrous.
Collin 29:52
Yes, some would say. Yeah, yeah, some
Brandon 29:54
would say.
Collin 29:55
So I want to. We should. We should probably just transition to this because I don't know how long this is going. To take you to actually accomplish, so we had I set a goal. I I came up with something. I came up with something, and I was like, you know what? I love our top five things when we do them, and I wanted to talk about top five disaster films.
Brandon 30:18
Yeah, I want to know where this came from because I this literally came out of nowhere. I was like, "Oh, I'm in, but also, where did this go? What is happening? Like, where?
Collin 30:27
We I was scrolling on, so I use a thing called Plex to watch different films and stuff, and I have have all these movies and stuff that I've watched in the past. I was scrolling trying to find something, and it actually had a category suggestion of it had like, hey, watch these sci-fi films. Hey, watch these, you know, romance and watch these, and it had disaster. And I went, I a haven't actually thought about disaster films in a very long time, and B, I actually like a lot of films on this list. Wow! So here we
Brandon 31:12
go.
Collin 31:13
Mayhaps I should propose to Brandon and see what can become of this.
Brandon 31:20
Here we go. Okay, it's good. I just need to warn you now. At the end, we will be getting the bonus Susan list because I live with somebody who loves disaster movies, right? And so I told her about this, and she was she immediately like Frodo Brown was like, "Hmm, yes, get back to work, and I was like, "Okay, okay, dear, get get them. Like I don't. So I have a bonus list for you when we're all done here. I'm so happy
Collin 31:52
about this. This is going. I'm I'm very excited by this for sure. So yes. So I. So first off, Brandon, what does disaster film mean to you?
Brandon 32:05
Okay, I had to think about this for a long time.
Collin 32:07
Aha!
Brandon 32:08
Because there was a movie or two that I really wanted to put on this list, and then I did not because, like, in the spirit of like disaster movie, right? To me, the the this is a movie that movie genre that is like a little bit campy. Right, there is some elements of like there is definitely like suspension of belief happening here. Right, yeah. There's there's gonna be some zaniness. Okay, the science is not really gonna stack up real well, and like it has to be like very like actiony, right? So this is like a to me it's like a subgenre of like an action kind of movie, but like with some sort of Nature element, right, or natural element. That's the direction that I went in for this list, right? So there is a big glaring hole in my list, but it's because, right? I told Susan this, and she's a little mad. I think it's too good for my list, and so we
Collin 33:17
no, okay, okay. It's made her
Brandon 33:20
grumpy. She scowled upon me, but so like I went full blown, like kind of over the top, right? Slightly B movie territory, a little bit, right? Like, like I mean, that's just what it feels like to me. Like natural, I went like natural disaster, like forces of nature, man versus nature, conflict kind of situation, right? Like that's what I went with. Like I went in that vein. Now I know that that's not the only vein that a person could go.
Speaker 3 33:57
Yeah.
Brandon 33:57
So I was also curious to ask you this question, okay?
Brandon 34:00
Because I wanted to know what you thought about a disaster movie.
Collin 34:04
Yeah, I because I I
Brandon 34:07
technically could have had two different lists, right? Like,
Collin 34:10
well, so I think I went. I think I went a bit broader because to me, a disaster film basically means that there is an event that takes place.
Brandon 34:27
Ah, okay, I see. Okay, yeah. That,
Collin 34:29
but, but, but the presence of that event dictates and shapes the entirety of the movie. It. Yeah, that is the
Brandon 34:39
inciting incident of the plot, right? Yes. Yeah. Okay. This
Collin 34:42
shapes everything around it, and it changes. I think you may
Brandon 34:46
have the movie on your list. I'm very interested to see, but like potentially, like,
Collin 34:50
and then like, and then there's this. There's not only the the thing happens, and then now all of the norms, like. Operations are different, and I now have to do everything else. is now shaped around responding to this single event. Yeah, I mean, I
Brandon 35:08
that's kind of what my criteria is, except for mine is like strictly some sort of like natural phenomenon.
Collin 35:14
Sure,
Speaker 4 35:15
right?
Collin 35:15
Okay,
Brandon 35:16
like I didn't put like the Hindenburg on my list,
Collin 35:20
right? Yeah, yeah, it
Brandon 35:22
is not there. Okay. There's no Titanic here. Yeah. Right. Because that movie, that disaster, only happens at the end of the movie anyway, so it doesn't matter. But like that kind of vibe is not is absent. Yeah. From the list here. No,
Collin 35:34
that makes sense because you're right. That's not like if you remove the Titanic sinking, uh, like you still have quite a bit of movie in that going on. Like it changes the an outcome, but it's not. It's not like oh, like Poseidon, right? Poseidon. Yes. Different. Exactly. Spoiler: Poseidon is not on my my list, but like okay,
Brandon 35:59
mine either. So we can go ahead and throw that out there. The entirety
Collin 36:02
of that film is ship is sinking. What do we do now? Yeah, that's all that consumes that entire thing.
Brandon 36:09
Yeah, like I there was another like I was looking at these lists and some of the lists because I I needed a last movie, right? I had four like immediately, and then I was like, I need the last one, and so I was looking at some other lists, like you know the 50 to whatever. And there's a movie that shows up on some of these lists that I disagree with, right? So I I want to this shout out is a you know this one's not didn't make I don't know if made your list, but real quick I'm talking about like Hard Rain, right? If you've seen this movie, no, pretty random, pretty niche. But like, this movie takes place during like a massive like dam break and flood, right? Except for the movie is actually about a robbery, but then it just like happens to coincide with the dam break and the flooding event.
Collin 37:01
Wrong, right?
Brandon 37:03
So, like, I think it doesn't necessarily count as a disaster movie.
Collin 37:08
I agree
Brandon 37:09
because it's like it's very actiony and it's crazy. It's actually, it's interesting. It held the record for like world's largest movie, like water movie set, for like six months until Titanic came out. Right? Yeah, it was like snatched. Like, oh, Jake Cameron was like,
Collin 37:27
yeah, hold on, recount one more. Yeah, I
Brandon 37:32
demand a recount. Right, like
Collin 37:33
yes.
Brandon 37:34
So it's pretty good movie. I like this movie a lot. It's like super random, and I don't know anybody else. I've never actually talked to anybody who's seen this movie, but like, it's good. But it's not. It's like a movie that a disaster happens during the rest of the plot, right? Yeah, because it's really a heist movie, right? They they've stolen. They've a bank truck has been robbed, and then a flood happens. Yeah. Right. So like, so it doesn't count, right? So that's that's I didn't put that one on my list, but I wanted to shout it out because that movie is, I think it's good. It's not actually good, but like, you know,
Collin 38:14
fair. Okay. No, that makes a lot of sense. I I do agree. Okay. Okay. Well, so then I think I want you. You want to kick us off with with your oh
Brandon 38:24
okay number five or whatever
Collin 38:25
you got here. Are these are these in an order?
Brandon 38:29
I did put them in an order. I'm still oscillating my one and two like as we speak because I can't decide in the spirit of disaster film which one should go where? But I'm going to start off with okay. This is a contentious choice. Okay, you may know. Also, the the year that these movies came out is going to be very telling about my disaster movie preference. They're all from the 90s, are they? Yeah, I think they are. We'll double check here, but okay. Yes, um, so like contentious choice. All right, so I want to talk about 1998. All right, now this this year is very known for movies about asteroids impacting the Earth.
Collin 39:30
Yeah, right.
Brandon 39:30
But I went for the one that I think is a better movie. This is
Speaker 5 39:35
the one
Brandon 39:36
that impacted me more deeply. Perhaps I'm going with deep impact.
Collin 39:43
Impact, yes. Okay,
Brandon 39:47
you know, like I, I mean, we have President Morgan Freeman. Okay, stop. Robert Duvall, Taya Leoni. Okay, like what else? What else do you need? Okay, I. So, also, also, Elijah Wood is in this movie, right? I forgot about that completely, and so, boom. This movie, the plot is better than Armageddon, in my opinion, and so I also that stupid Aerosmith song is like really annoying, and I don't like it, So I, for that reason, okay, I picked Deep Impact to be my number five, right? It's my number five movie, right? I figure, you know, it's pretty disastery, right? It's it's kind of like about like attempting to like avoid a disasteriness, right? But I thought I like Deep Impact. That's what I put. This is the one. This is what again. I had the other four like pretty quick. This is the one I was like, I need a five, so we'll put this one. Okay.
Collin 40:54
Well, I went the normy route on this mostly because I completely forgot about Deep Impact, Brandon, and I did in fact choose Armageddon for my number five.
Brandon 41:06
No idea how happy it makes me that we picked these off the movies for number five. So good.
Collin 41:11
Yep, yep, yep. No, deep people like it's good. It's good. It didn't immediately come to mind in my search, and a lot of mine was like, what immediately comes to my mind? You know, when I think about this, Deep Impact wasn't one of them. I, you know, obviously, yeah, I should have searched a bit more. But that's fine. I do like, you know, I Bruce Willis. You know, gotta love Bruce Willis. I do. I love him. Song, little annoying. Okay, I'll get that to you. Mostly just because they have not stopped playing it since 1998. Like it is, and they do like
Brandon 41:48
that movie is also secretly like, oh, but it's a love story. Like guys, stop! It doesn't have.
Collin 41:54
What are we? Oh, we've been a Netflix. Stop! Nope, nope, nope. That doesn't make sense. Yes. So yeah, I did choose Armageddon because this, to me, like, is almost the quintessential like disaster film. I mean, that's fair. That's big. It's it's humanity. The planet is at stake here. Made a lot
Brandon 42:20
more money than Deep Impact is a lot
Collin 42:22
more, so much more, so much for sure. So yes, my number five is Armageddon.
Brandon 42:31
Okay, that's pretty good. That's good. Okay, we'll out, we'll out, roll out. So, for my number four, right, gonna travel back in time one year to 1997. Wow! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Go, go. Now this, I pick this movie for number four because it is like it's like a big like emergency event, but also it's not like, it's definitely not the most serious thing in the world that's happening right here, right? Okay. This one definitely has the camp factor that you need. Plus, Collin, this movie has what's more iconic than mid nine, mid to late 90s Tommy Lee Jones? This is volcano.
Collin 43:22
Okay.
Brandon 43:24
Yes. Tommy Lee Jones being the the head of the the emergency management thing, and just a volcano just erupting in Los Angeles, and also Anne Hesch is there, and so you're like, okay, That is
Collin 43:41
phenomenal, especially I like this because it's like, what if, what if a volcano erupted in downtown L.A. Like, could that happen? Like, what is that?
Brandon 43:52
No, not likely. Is on the plate boundary, I guess. But like, also,
Collin 43:58
yes,
Brandon 44:00
I do. I do like. I was just like, let's see. We always destroy Los Angeles with earthquakes. What about a volcano? Like, what is that?
Collin 44:09
This is very true. Oh my gosh!
Brandon 44:13
This movie does have Tommy Lee Jones just in like he's like peak Tommy Lee Jones era, right? Like, so So good, like it's, and some of the scenes are like really hilarious, and I didn't not remember this at all until just right now, where I saw this movie poster that says "Volcano, the coast is toast.
Collin 44:36
Dang, that's good. Someone made a million dollars. They really did.
Brandon 44:40
I didn't. I remember that was part of this, but holy cow, that's great!
Collin 44:45
That's great writing. I I love that so much. Does nice, nice. Here go,
Brandon 44:54
yeah, nice. Boom. Okay.
Collin 44:57
Well, for for my. Number four, I'm gonna stay space bound. Maybe it's just because I was a bit more influenced by some of our discussions around space movies and space books and sci-fi kind of thing. So cosmosphere,
Brandon 45:16
perhaps
Collin 45:17
cosmosphere, perhaps I'm also looking that way because also when I think of looking, this is like what do I think is best versus what do I want to watch, like that kind of stuff. I did have to include a civilization scale disaster on my list because there are few things that I love more than like this. Also fits with what you were saying of like, the science and the tech and stuff really don't make sense right up like at the very end. Like it makes no sense at all how this is actually resolved. But I do love Independence Day so much. I this had such a deep, deep impact on me in the that like it just this is this is so much mid 90s for that is true I just it just screams that and maybe that's why I like it so much but like this is Will Smith doing Will Smith things. This is Jeff Goldblum just
Brandon 46:23
riding that Jurassic Park vibe, right? Like that's
Collin 46:27
that's exactly it. This is what if he what if he also okay? We we had Jeff Goldblum with with dinosaurs. Now we're gonna have Jeff Goldblum with aliens. Aliens, right? Doesn't change anything about what he's doing. No, I think
Brandon 46:40
he changed his shirt, and that might be it. I think he's still wearing mostly black in that movie, though. It is
Collin 46:46
mostly black. It is very no, but I also it's got Randy Randy Quaid in it. So anyway, I mean, yeah, like
Brandon 46:57
come on, Randy Quaid.
Collin 46:59
I underrated
Brandon 47:00
guy, underrated,
Collin 47:02
but. this again to me is just screams like absolutely perfect for me. So I I do love, and this is my inner child just like screaming about about this movie. That's fair.
Brandon 47:15
That's fair. It's pretty good. I'm I'm gonna gonna stay. Okay, Collin. This is again. This is. I'm just gonna stay in 1997, right? Just like 1998 had. What if two asteroid movies, Collin? What if 1997 had two volcano movies? Did
Collin 47:36
you? And one of
Speaker 6 47:37
them, yeah, is Dante's Peak, right? It's
Collin 47:40
Dante's Peak. Right. What about what
Brandon 47:44
about James Bond is a volcanologist? What about that? Right.
Collin 47:48
Okay. Dante's Peak is on my runners up list, and all I wrote was all I wrote was double o7 volcanologist. Yes, that's all I wrote. That's okay. Oh man,
Brandon 48:06
James Bond and and Linda Hamilton, right? They're like, oh no, gotta run, ran from a Terminator, and I'm gonna run from volcano.
Collin 48:15
Nope.
Brandon 48:18
What if what if James Bond and Sarah Connor teamed up to fight against
Collin 48:25
flee lava? Yeah, exactly. That's what we're going to be doing here.
Speaker 7 48:29
I do like
Brandon 48:30
the pyroclastic flow in this movie. Actually, just you know, as a science teacher, just a brief aside, right? And like the like, whereas volcano is like, what if Lava, okay. Dante Peak does have all the other stuff. What about pyroclastic flow? What about superheated poisonous gas? What about ashfall? Right? What about ejecta? Right? What about bits of rock and and volcanic bombs and things? Right? So there's tephra. There's tephra everywhere. It's wonderful. So like, you know, so you know. Now, now the boiling lake thing. Okay, but like the
Collin 49:10
that's what you mean to say. It's absolutely perfect.
Brandon 49:13
Not quite peak, but it's close. Um. So yeah, my number three is
Collin 49:20
Dante. Oh, I love because of
Brandon 49:22
James Bond volcanologist.
Collin 49:26
You know, it's not. It's it's a good one. It's a good one. So I am actually going to go for my number three. I'm going to go further back. Actually, I'm going to go to an older movie. I'm going to go 1989 with this one, and I'm also going to go. I'm also so I have an argument here that if we stick with my premise, that which I think obviously we should, that is our list. So fine, a disaster film includes and disaster, okay, and then that that disaster shapes and how people respond. And alters their world across, you know, and what they're doing. It's all about responding to that. So, I've talked about planetary and civilization disasters. I'd like to get small. I'd like to get real small. I'd like to. I'm proposing on my number three of my disaster list. I'm gonna add, honey. I shrunk the kids. Now I know what you're saying, Brayden. I don't know about this one. You're just saying. Look, nobody browsing disaster movies is expecting Rick Moranis. I know this. That's true. I know. I know this, but I I think that this just might fit with with my premise, and also I really like this movie so much. I mean, it's
Brandon 50:51
you're allowed to really like this movie. I mean, well, I guess it's a bit of a shoehorn. I'm gonna put a bit of an asterisk here. I mean, being shrunk is disastrous, I suppose, but like
Collin 51:03
I just, I just, I have an argument that disasters happen at all scale, and this one is literally tiny.
Brandon 51:15
That's fair. Neighbor dad's acting also a bit disastrous, but like, gosh, I
Collin 51:22
if. there is one thing about this movie, it is-is that what's what's is his name Jared? Is that wait? I told you for a movie for the dad here. I don't even remember. Or is it Russ? I think it's Russ. It's Russ. It's Russ. It's Russ for her. Yeah, who that that guy? Ah, not good. Oh man, 100% not. Yeah, that ain't right. That that's the that's the actual disaster. Is the movie guy Russ? Anyway, anyway, okay. Back to regular stage programming.
Brandon 52:01
Oh. Oh, okay. So, so for my number two, I went big. Collin went big for number two. I've decided I'm gonna stick this one number two, even though this is the most disastery of the disaster movies.
Collin 52:19
Okay,
Brandon 52:20
because in this movie, the disaster happens.
Collin 52:24
Oh,
Brandon 52:24
right! Boom! I'm going back. I mean, in volcano, like it happens to, but like still, right? Big, big thing happens. Okay, there's no preventing it, right? Here we go, right? If globe spanning event, right? We are affecting the entire world, Right, but luckily Dennis Quaid is there because I'm talking about 2004's day after tomorrow. Right, like Dennis Quaid and Spider-Man are there. Oh, it's not Spider-Man. That's a different game. But like, it's yeah, it's Jake Gyllenhaal. But like, he looks like something required. Everyone gets confused anyway. So like, yeah. So we have have the day after tomorrow, right? Massive like weather event, right? Like super mega hurricane blizzard thing that like destroys New York and like the United States, and it's like yeah, everything it's bad. There's wolves for some reason, and like I
Collin 53:29
no, this is I like
Brandon 53:31
epic in scale, right? Epic
Collin 53:32
in scale. It is also this day after tomorrow does a great job that I think is also kind of under this disaster films of what if everything you knew about the world no longer that's not how it worked anymore yeah like yeah
Brandon 53:47
the equilibrium has been so distraught that like weird things happen now well
Collin 53:53
and they're like there's the scenes okay this honest this was my number two as well I'm just gonna go ahead and say this this was let's go okay with this I love it
Brandon 54:01
when we agree randomly out of nowhere. So wonderful!
Collin 54:04
It's just it's just crazy. Like this is like this one does a great job of you think you know New York, but now there's snow everywhere, and you don't know that you're walking on the built you know the roof of a building. Yeah, of this building. Like that's also again also
Brandon 54:19
wolves. Also wolves. Like
Collin 54:20
in that moment, it's just how they got they got there real fast. Yeah, it's fine. Yeah, they did really. Didn't have to do with the zoo or something like. I think it
Speaker 8 54:27
did technically. Yeah, man,
Collin 54:30
they got around real quick. Little thin, but unlike the ice, unlike no, I yeah. So I I also have day after tomorrow. That is my number two. Hey, I am very, very interested to see what happens here with number one and where we are headed.
Brandon 54:48
Yeah. Okay. Well, there's really only one answer in my mind, right? Again. Got to go back to 1996, and there's only one disaster movie that can really be number one on this list, and that is Twister, right? Like, come on, like that. At this point, it's like The quintessential disaster, right? Like it's got it all. It's it's brisk, right? You have a cast of characters that you don't really get to spend enough time with, but like they're they're just there long enough that you like get to like them, and they're funny. There's like there's like I mean, they're all like comic relief a little bit, but like unique, right? And then we do have the weird divorce plot story, whatever. And then giant tornadoes suck up Bill Paxton's truck, and it's just like insane chaos from there. And so, no,
Collin 55:58
it's it's also because it's it's just on the verge of being. This is also a great part of like it's on the verge of being kind of believable, where it's not yeah like kind of like Dante's peak of this was it's a it's a natural occurrence. It's not a supernatural thing or not like weird volcanoes boiling up in L.A. or you know people shrinking. Yeah, it's fine, whatever, guys. Or aliens, or whatever. It's it's this is something that happens actually quite a lot. But this is just
Brandon 56:33
maybe as a Missouri resident. Yes. Yes.
Collin 56:37
Yeah. No. And so it also makes it very real and believable in that case too, but also it's stressful and it's putting people right in that situation of like, like I'll like okay, spoiler, this is my number one as well. So let's go. We converged right there at the we did converge right. Yeah, we brought it back because you're right. Like in my head, there there's like the pantheon of films here, like I think you have to include Twister, and yeah, it's not planetary or civilization level, but it is disasters happening to people, and I think ultimately, I I think the best disaster films happen to people. It's not just like the impacts to them, like the one thing about they happen to Helen Hunt. That's who they. Yes, they happen to Joe. Nobody wants that. Like they do a great job of showing. And again, that's why Dante. That's right. Yeah, you are going to have things like these people are dealing with the consequences. The one thing that Independence Day, I will say, that doesn't have about it. It's not like like like Will Smith is not dealing with the cities that are being destroyed. The aftermath, right? Yeah, aftermath and that kind of stuff. So that is one. This is more like an impending. He's not living in the city post apocalyptic kind of thing. No, he's leaving. He's flying away. Yes, he's gonna go fights. He's on the front lines,
Brandon 58:01
yeah,
Collin 58:01
different kind of disaster. But I love the, and that's also why I like the the twister. It's also it's small scale. It's these people on this truck or these people in this barn shed where they're using their belt to wrap around the pipes. Yeah, now I
Brandon 58:17
mean, you know, the guy, come on,
Collin 58:18
yes, I need all of that, so yes, I firmly. So I, yeah, Twister, my number one as well. Nice, I love this. Let's go.
Brandon 58:28
I just, I just thought it was very telling that all of my movies came out within eight years of each.
Collin 58:32
Yes, so too did mine. Yes, absolutely. Yeah.
Brandon 58:39
Yeah. The other, the other movie that I I I I flirted with briefly, and then I was like, "No, this movie is too dumb. Is the core?
Collin 58:49
Oh yes!
Brandon 58:51
Remember the core? Yes, I
Collin 58:53
do. Yes, the core of gosh. No, that's oh man. man, that's yeah. I had what Eckhart in it, and oh, I had Hillary Swank in this. Hillary
Brandon 59:09
Swank for some reason, just like hello,
Collin 59:11
Janely Tucci. Oh come on, yes,
Brandon 59:16
pretty good, right? My goodness, the other movie that I like immediately thought of, and then like I was like, nah, it can't go on this list because it's the wrong vibe for all the rest of the movies I want.
Collin 59:27
Yeah,
Brandon 59:27
was Apollo 13 right? Like I was like,
Collin 59:30
Apollo 13 was on my right side list as
Brandon 59:35
well. Wasn't yeah, but like the whole rest of the list was going in such a different direction. I was like, I just can't, I can't put it on here like that, right? It just doesn't fit the vibe, but it is very disastrous, right? Like it's like it is. It shapes super disastrous. It
Collin 59:54
shapes all of the thing, right? Is sudden and it's absolutely and people direct. Impacted by it, but it's not. I don't know. It it that one kind of is on that line of what's really the storyline here. Is this is this kind of like the yeah? It's more of a
Brandon 1:00:12
survival film, right? Like
Collin 1:00:14
yeah,
Brandon 1:00:15
it's like a survivaly kind of thing, right? Like that's yeah. So I I think I just like that movie's too good for this list. I think because like I was going for like over the top, like wacky kind of like you know I mean like that's like I said that's the vibe I was going for. So
Speaker 9 1:00:32
sure that
Brandon 1:00:33
yeah that's the the core somehow didn't make that list but like
Collin 1:00:37
next time next time no I had so yeah I had maybe next time Dante's Peak I had Apollo 13. I was really trying to find a way to like get like Jumanji or like Homeward Bound on this list from that week. Did we
Brandon 1:00:53
have Homeward Bound on a different list? I think we did. Yeah.
Collin 1:00:56
Well, and Honey I Shrunk the Kids has also been half a list of ours as well. So that's fine. It's
Brandon 1:01:01
fine. It's fine. There, there can be crossover. Yes. But I was also thinking today, is like, man, I need to like make a list of all the top five lists we've done because I've forgotten some of these. Like,
Collin 1:01:08
we've gotten a lot of these. Yes, I've. I actually did have to go through and like I did a quick check of like, have we talked about something like close to this? No, we haven't. So, I liked it. No, I
Brandon 1:01:20
don't think we have. So I also did that. I like searched the website. I was like, "Wait, so the list for you though.
Collin 1:01:28
Yes, I have to know this list.
Brandon 1:01:30
Oh, yeah, I have a Susan list for you. Right. So the official Susan list, right? We have, we have, and number five, Twisters, the sequel film, right? Yeah, big fan of this
Collin 1:01:46
120. 20. Yeah, just
Brandon 1:01:47
a couple years ago, right? 2024, 25. Yeah, isn't it 24? Maybe 2024. Yeah, just a few years ago. So we have Twisters, and then at number four, the day after tomorrow.
Collin 1:01:58
Okay,
Brandon 1:01:59
right, and then at number three, she's a big fan of San Andreas, big San Andreas girl, right? She likes that one. And then number two, Dante's Peak.
Collin 1:02:11
Gotcha.
Brandon 1:02:12
Right. And number one, Collin, this should be no surprise if you know my wife at all is also Twister. Like, this is literally like one of her favorite movies of all time, right? Like, it's it's like her. She watches it all the time. Like, this is her. This is one of her favorite movies ever. So,
Collin 1:02:40
I love how her list is bookended by Twister.
Brandon 1:02:43
I yes, this is so unsurprising for me, but like
Collin 1:02:47
like fair, you know what? Yeah,
Brandon 1:02:49
fair, fair, fair. There's the there's the official bonus Susan list, right? The bonus Susan list. There you go. So
Collin 1:03:00
yeah, perfect. I love that so much. That's great. No, jeez. Oh gosh.
Brandon 1:03:13
There you go. Boom. All right.
Collin 1:03:18
Hey, do you have overheard in sixth grade this week quote, or do we not? I don't. I have not
Brandon 1:03:25
had anything this week. Right, I didn't got anything. I did find I did find something on my list that I didn't talk about last year. So if you want a random ad, I don't even remember the context of this sentence. Oh
Collin 1:03:37
yes, but I'll
Brandon 1:03:38
give you one. If you want a freebie,
Collin 1:03:39
this isn't just this is old context. This is a no context possible.
Brandon 1:03:45
Yeah, I don't even remember the context.
Collin 1:03:47
Love it.
Brandon 1:03:47
But like, I remember who said it.
Collin 1:03:50
Oh,
Brandon 1:03:51
and it makes so much sense if you know that. But like, this is the one from last year, right? And I look, I found it on my little note app thing when I remembered that I have a separate whole note app for six grade quotes, right? Well, let me pull this up so I make sure I get it exactly right. Right? Yeah. Again, I don't know where this came from at all, but he said he was like, "I just over. They were. This is actually overheard. Like they were talking, he was talking to like a friend, like over on the side of the room, and I just heard him say, "Yeah, I figure you could make toast on a bus heater.
Collin 1:04:30
Okay, you know, actually, I
Brandon 1:04:43
have no idea.
Collin 1:04:44
Yeah, how do you even begin to? I don't know.
Brandon 1:04:52
It sounds so unsanitary too. Like, I
Collin 1:04:54
yeah, yeah. But the confidence, the it's the confidence part where he's like, yeah. Actually, for sure.
Brandon 1:05:03
I mean, you got that is some gumption to be like, yeah, I can do that. I I put toes. What?
Collin 1:05:08
What are you talking about? You know what? Yeah, that is exactly what the sound you're supposed to can. You can't. Good. Yeah. Oh. Okay.
Brandon 1:05:23
Yeah, you go for it. It's fine. I don't know.
Collin 1:05:26
Mildly concerned for sure. Oh my gosh. Okay. No, I love that a lot. My
Brandon 1:05:34
okay. There goes. I remembered I had that one, and there you go. So I dig that one out for you, and then that's all I got. They didn't do much today. They're a little bit of trouble because they can't be nice to each other at recess. We'll talk about that tomorrow.
Collin 1:05:46
Okay. Yeah. Fun times. Well, I will end us off with a haiku here. All right. Okay. So absolutely. Okay. Soft nose, wicked claws. Tiny gremlin seeks a home. Obviously cute.
Brandon 1:06:11
That's
Collin 1:06:12
it's amazing. There's there's this one cat. I don't even Ravina. Ravine was a cat named Ravina. I didn't want to. Oh, I didn't want to like, you know, throw her name in here or whatever. But anyway, Ravina would be like the the
Brandon 1:06:25
only cat not named after food, not named after
Collin 1:06:27
food, jet black cat, and it would be all like purry and like happy, like up against the the kennel, and then like when you would go to open it, she'd lash out at your hand and like be like, ah, no, no, freak out. And the worst part was on Monday they had a cat above her, so you had to approach. Oh no! Wanted to get that cat out, so oh no, you were just like Ravina. It's gonna be okay, and it would just be like, and like, like sweet, and then within like four inches, the claws would come flying out from the cage, and
Brandon 1:07:07
like, and
Collin 1:07:08
freaking out. Just, just to picture this little like little gremlin in this cage. You'll get home soon. Oh my gosh! I'm sure you will, Ravina. I'm sure you will. As long as you are out of the cat already, totally. When people are here looking at cats, you will find a home. So, yes, there we go. Ah, goodness. Well,
Brandon 1:07:36
beautiful,
Collin 1:07:37
beautiful. Gonna go watch some of these for sure.
Brandon 1:07:43
All right, let's go.
Collin 1:07:45
Well, we'll we'll do this again soon.
Brandon 1:07:50
All right. Sounds
Collin 1:07:51
good. Love you.
Brandon 1:07:54
All right. Love you too.
Collin 1:07:55
