90s Sports Movies: The Good, The Bad, The Air Bud

Episode Transcript

Music.

There it was, y'all.

That means the episode is officially started.

When Matt breaks the furniture.

Order.

The gentleman in today's topic, which was suggested by the fans, or one fan in particular, Chris Yow, loyal listener of the show.

Shout out to him up in Tennessee.

Yowza.

Was 90s.

I think he just threw out sports movies hooting and hollering, but I really wanted to make it difficult for us and put it into one decade, which was 90s, which there's plenty there.

I know Eric presented his concerns early in the show meeting about this, not enough in this decade, but we presented a list to you.

I found plenty.

There's a lot.

I think we got a Poltergeist moment going on with the TV.

I told you that would happen.

Yeah.

If you're listening, you can't tell.

It would be good if you're a listener.

Thank you so much.

We have more people consistently listening to the show than we watch it.

And I don't know why.

We're beautiful boys.

You would think that they would watch us.

Yeah.

Yeah, we are.

YouTube pays us more.

We like white guys.

with beards should come.

This is the show for an old furniture.

This is it.

Yeah, this is us.

But we've turned on, we've had this old TV behind us for forever and we have finally turned it on.

I finally found the power cord for the NES that's attached to it.

Plugged it in and it, only one of my four games worked.

Did you, did you get the old?

I gave it some love.

I gave it.

It looks like the Oregon Trail about to start or something.

I don't even know what this game is.

No.

It's not Castlevania.

No.

It's not that good.

Oh, Castlevania is so good.

No.

it is something to do with the castle yeah but it's on and it's but it also is freaking out and on the fritz so it could it's gonna get weird if you're watching it might be distracting it also might catch on fire i was gonna say if smoke detect or if uh oh yeah i'll think what they're called yeah smoke detectors, You know what?

For legal reasons, I'm not going to say whether or not I have.

There you go.

Anyone here has a fire suppression system.

You don't either confirm or deny that I have, you know.

You don't hear it beeping, do you?

Right.

Yeah.

It's true.

And I have set fires in here before, just so we're clear.

Yeah.

I can believe that.

I think I've seen that.

Yeah.

One time for some reason.

It's, it's.

And Sankal smoked a cigarette in here.

He did a lot of it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Which was.

Wow.

Yeah.

That was something.

Way to put that in the Easter Bunny's contract.

Yeah.

As a lot of the audience said of that episode, don't do that again.

We didn't.

We got the Easter Bunny.

People don't appreciate when we have mythical guests like that.

No, no.

Wait until we have a werewolf.

Speaking of unwanted sequels, I think somebody has a holler on an unwanted sequel.

And that's you, Drake.

Yeah, I do.

I'm going to just go backwards.

Let's holler and hoot today.

Thank you.

Oh, we're starting off mad.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I like that.

There's no rules.

No rules.

I think that was in the contract we all signed when we started this.

There are no rules.

It was just a blank sheet of paper.

It literally was, yeah.

I got redo by it.

I'll finish the rest later.

Matter of fact, we sealed this deal over text message, right?

That's right.

Yeah.

So, my holler is D3, the Mighty Ducks.

Mm-hmm.

Because it ruined what could have been a perfect 90s sports trilogy.

I'm glad you said that.

How else could that have ended?

Them going to college turning professional anything other than somehow overriding the alma mater board whatever the trustees of that press school that they got sent to yeah like Gordon Bombay can't pull that many strings all of a sudden oh hey we're not the Warriors anymore we're the Ducks well he quite literally was the Minnesota Miracle Man so, there are laws go ahead and jot that I don't remember one single thing about that movie three refresh my memory here one is Coach Bombay is just, the court decides he has to coach his kids.

Yeah, he's got court mandatory.

Coaching.

Public service.

Yeah, the court said, you know what?

We need, you know what?

This criminal needs to be around children.

Have you ever seen bad news bears?

Yeah, I know.

Bad news bears of hockey.

He can drive them to practice.

On the ice.

And then two is they're in like.

The Goodwill Games, which is like the Olympics, Junior Olympics.

Yeah.

Several steps above the World Games that were in Birmingham, I suppose.

Yeah, for sure.

They played Arrowhead Pond.

Literally everything.

Your company's park work day is above the World Games that were in Birmingham.

The World Games didn't have Emilio Estevez.

Yeah.

Not even close.

No.

Hey, you know what?

They didn't have much of Emilio Estevez either.

The third one.

He wasn't in it.

He's not in it at all?

He's in it for like maybe a combined five minutes.

Man, you knew he was in trouble when they called it D3.

That's a red flag.

It was about a Division III movie.

Yeah, big time.

You can tell they pushed it out too quick.

Yeah.

But he tells Charlie at the beginning...

He's got to go be a lawyer for the Junior Goodwill Games.

Like, he's over it.

Yeah, he runs the Junior Goodwill Games now.

So, he has to leave the tailio.

Yeah.

Yeah, he gets them all these fancy scholarships to this prep school and then just dumps them on this new coach who's quite a douchebag.

Yeah, but he ends up being a nice guy.

Emilio's the worst person because he took all of these inner-city youths from Minnesota that had no future and put them in the most prestigious prep school in Minnesota.

So, I mean, just the worst guy, obviously.

But continue.

Yeah, he dumps them.

and then who's the new coach Vin Diesel no God I wish, Coach O'Ryan what actor plays him I don't even know his name he's the only that's the only thing I've ever seen Travis Tritt does make a guest appearance in this movie that's not true yeah there was a guy in a wheelchair no it was a girl that was his daughter Jesus.

Trying to work into it so at the end every larger political is not Travis Tritt, at the end they play the varsity team because they're on Junior Varsity.

And at the end, Emilio Estevez is standing like in the background and he's like, it's like one of those focused things.

And he gives a head nod and he looks up and that's when the Baron drops there, the Eden Hall Mighty Ducks, and then he walks out and it's over.

Yeah.

That was a light drop moment.

Did they show that in the movie theater?

Was that like a direct to VHS movie?

Had to be.

I don't know because I was only like eight or nine when it came out.

I don't ever remember going to a movie theater to watch the Mighty Ducks.

No, no, no.

It was a, we ran it out.

Any one, two, or three.

Yeah, I think that was all straight to VHS.

It was all three or four.

No, no, it was, the first one was pretty big.

The fire movie theaters?

Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, it's pretty big.

Yeah.

What are the naughty ducks?

Like, even McDonald's or something.

ESPN special.

Oh, yeah.

Okay.

There's an ESPN special on, like, the hockey team.

They talk about the movies.

How Anaheim was born from it.

Yeah.

Okay.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

Didn't know that.

Fun fact there.

Yeah.

It's solid.

Yeah.

But D3 is, like, if they could have picked any other way to go, and it probably would have been better.

You could have.

Maybe more Emilio.

To me, you could have hollered on the entire Mighty Ducks trilogy.

I can't.

No, D2 is...

To me, re-watching it, it's tough watch.

The second one's one of my favorites of all time.

A lot of that happens.

The kids' movies?

Yeah.

Not mine.

And Kenan Thompson.

Kenan Thompson with the knuckle puck in the second one.

I bet if that puck was the cheeseburger, he would have stopped it.

Wow.

Yeah.

And the Bash Brothers.

He's in my hoot.

Peak Bash Brothers there.

Peak Bash Brothers.

Which was also a monumental moment in D3.

The Bash Brothers had been disbanded.

Yeah.

And come back together for...

I do remember that part.

Yep.

Why are you just going to leave a scholarship just laying around your apartment in Chicago?

I put a paper in my apartment, figured I might check it out.

Really?

Bro dipped on his thing for half a season, like, oh, hey, I'm getting left this laying around.

I found it.

Showed up when it mattered, though.

You can't just join the team mid-season like that.

He's a bash brother.

Were we really counting on this guy for dependency?

That's true, too.

Sounds like a terrible plot to this movie.

It was all over the place.

Yeah, sounds like it.

So that's...

I see you didn't take Coach O'Ryan's philosophy of picking up the trash.

Yeah.

It's tough.

That trash should be left.

It's tough.

Because now if I want to re-watch it, I watch one and two and I just leave three.

Can you watch D3 on Disney Plus?

Do they do it?

Yeah, still there.

I'm not going to.

Don't.

I need to re-watch them.

I'd like to watch the first one again.

The first two were untouchable for me.

Yeah.

I don't remember the second one a lot either for some reason.

What's your hoot?

Varsity Blues.

Which is...

Another great kids movie.

What's wrong?

What's ironic is they came out around the same time, Varsity Blues and D3.

They were maybe a year or two apart, but.

What was, like, 99?

Yeah, it was 99.

Yeah.

But that had football, the stress of Texas football, and comedy all rolled into one.

Yes.

And so that's what kind of got me fired up for football movies.

He didn't have no Tim McGraw, though.

He didn't have no fat Tim McGraw.

No.

In a fat suit.

That would have been great.

Was he wearing a fat suit?

He was about the smallest fat suit.

He keeps trying to push that, that he's wearing a fat suit.

He can't accept it.

No.

That belly was too perfectly round.

Yeah.

It's all natural.

It didn't look natural.

That's just a beer belly.

That was how he got into character for that, was he just went home every night to Faith and just drank down 16 or 17.

Yeah.

What a lot.

You know there were Michelobes too.

If it works for Faith, good cooking.

Yeah.

But Varsity Blues, to me, that was like the ultimate high school football movie where it actually showed the off the field stuff that most high school footballers get into.

And the partying and everything almost killing your offensive line yeah is that stealing cop cars clubs yeah yeah playing the next night hungover that might have been the most accurate part of the the antics that high school footballers get into is playing a game hungover yeah yeah yeah i think that's probably accurate there i've thought about stealing a cop car never done it you know, It was so funny.

It was like extreme versions.

Yeah.

No, that's what I'm saying.

It's like everything you'd think they do is like they took it to the absolute max possible.

Yeah, yeah.

The structural integrity of that whipped cream was something else too.

I mean, it should have slid right off.

Yeah.

It doesn't make sense.

Gravity.

Shaving cream.

That makes more sense.

It's just, whipped cream's just too dense.

Don't eat the cherry off that.

No.

Barbersol and cherry.

That tastes so bad, man.

You got a little minty flavor.

You ought to do that.

I've probably tasted shaving cream before.

You ought to do that next time.

Why you say I've...

You're a barber.

Well, you're...

I usually don't.

Off of my...

I've seen...

Like my client's face is a cake.

I've seen...

Be a great April's fullest day for you.

I've looked over there before and you've been drinking that barbicide and you've just taken a little swig of it.

Fun fact.

Licking your cones.

I put blue pyre to mine.

He does a straight blade shave.

When he's done he looks dead to do the night.

Lick the blade.

Yeah.

Like you used to...

Those beater things you used to lick the icing off in When your mama makes something.

Working for tips, baby.

That's right.

The key is to make eye contact when you do it.

You have to.

Yeah.

They love that.

Maintain eye contact.

Yes.

How do you feel on the eye contact?

In general?

Well, like if you're in there, you know, giving them a shave and they're just following you around.

I've had two people that I remember that have intense eye contact with trimming their beard.

And I hope they never come back.

That's fair.

So they've not come back.

Huh?

Is it like a regular?

They're regulars.

Oh, they are.

It's bad.

Like, as soon as I'm right here, they're like already eye contact all the way around.

No.

So what you do to combat that, you just stare more intently at them.

Yeah.

Start leaking your lips.

Yeah.

I wish I wouldn't cross my eyes or something.

I hate how, you know, they say dentists do bad about that, asking questions and stuff when you got your mouth wide open, they're working on you.

But really, barber, cleaning up your mustache or your beard, that's so much worse.

Yeah.

That's another question I got.

Always talking.

Sammy, always asking questions.

If you're giving me a haircut and asking a lot of questions, that just seems unsafe.

I feel like I'm going to get my hair messed up doing that.

No.

Because if I go, you know, if you're back there trimming up my neckline or something, you ask a question, I'm like, oh, now I've got to.

You don't have to do that, though.

You don't have to turn your head to talk.

Yeah, but a lot of people do.

Too many.

Yeah.

Yeah.

You learn real quick when people are going to move.

That's fair.

When they're going to turn.

The fidgety ones.

Yeah.

I got this older client.

He is worse than any child I have.

He moves his head.

Yeah.

Some of them.

That bad.

People just got little shakes to them.

No, it's not that.

He just.

He just.

Been through a lot of life.

He just has to move his head while he talks.

And it's ridiculous.

I try not to breathe when he touches up my mustache.

Yeah.

I'm like, I'll breathe on his fingers.

I stick my tongue.

I don't like that, man.

When people, when people, I feel their breath on my hand.

Their tongue is the worst, though.

They'll just be like, eh.

Yeah.

That happens pretty often.

Yeah, fish hook them.

You said that shaving cream tastes good.

Let's get a little something.

Get some cherry-flavored barbara salt in there.

Yeah, you want to taste it a little bit?

Yeah.

Well, boop.

That's what you ought to do.

Just boop them.

Yeah, stick your tongue out.

I feel like going back to Varsity Blues.

Yeah, we probably should.

Everything I think of now at Varsity Blues is when they were making fun of it in Not Another Teen Movie.

Yes.

Which was one of the only one of those parody movies.

And I couldn't really appreciate Scary Movie because I didn't watch scary movies.

Scary Movie is good.

I think a little bit I've seen of it is good, but I didn't appreciate it on the level that people that watch those movies is parodying do.

Because I don't get all the references.

But Another Not a Teen Movie nailed it.

And also had some.

That's my Captain America.

Oh, Captain America's in it.

That's my Captain America.

And it actually had the same guy playing Billy Bob.

They did, didn't they?

Yeah.

Oh, wow.

That's why in my mind, I have a very hard time.

Yeah.

Okay.

Was that the heavyset fella?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Hey, Mox.

Who?

What actor is that?

Because I pictured the guy that Ethan Supply got.

I feel like his name probably is Billy Bob.

I don't even know his real name, but he lost all that weight.

It's Ethan Supply then, right?

No, it's not him.

He's in Shane the movie.

Yeah.

That's who I keep picturing in my head.

Okay.

He was also in Boy Meets World.

He was the deeply philosophical bully.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That was Ethan Supply, whatever his name is.

Yeah.

Hey.

That is who we're talking about, Joey.

Good to see those headphones are working.

Fun fact about that in Boy Meets World.

He's listening to the Hades in Alabama podcast.

But the guy who played Billy Bob, he died like 10 years ago.

Yeah.

Oh, did he?

Yeah.

I know he died.

The big guy.

Yeah.

So he didn't leave.

Ethan Supley.

No!

I'm sure he's lost all that weight by now.

He's dead.

Ethan Supley is alive and well.

Yeah.

No, 100%.

Yeah, he is jacked now.

He is jacked.

He does like a food podcast, like a healthy eating lifestyle podcast.

Oh, that sounds awesome.

It's pretty big.

Must listen.

I can't wait to go to that.

Podcast about eating healthy.

Yeah.

His name was?

Incidentally, I know Ethan Sopley as tuna.

Ron Lester.

With blow.

Ron Lester?

Ron Lester was his name.

There's no way that guy was named Ron Lester.

Seemed like a morrer to me.

Was he like 50 years old when they shot that movie?

He died in 2016.

He was 46 when he died.

He was almost 30 when they made the movie.

What took him out?

What happened to him?

Yeah.

Let's see.

Cardiac arrest.

Anybody else?

For sure.

One way or another.

I think I already had kidney failure or something.

Okay.

Liver.

He had issues in his liver and kidneys and later died of kidney failure.

At 30?

That's close.

Is it 40?

40.

40.

What?

46, I think it's it.

Yeah, 46.

46 years old.

Wow.

He was born in 70.

Wow.

So yeah he was almost because i remember him talking about how he lost so much weight he actually shrunk like in hot because he had so much like fat on his feet most people don't lose their their weight been vertically no yeah he literally he said he lost like one one or two inches in height because he lost the bottoms of his feet must have been really huge yeah i i you know i've i've lost 100 pounds twice in my life and my shoes i do go down the shoe size, yeah well you probably have to right i mean i don't realize i have that much this way are you going like from a wide to a standard i guess yeah yeah but uh yeah a lot of people don't know when you lose a bunch of weight your toes get shorter that's not real right no big toe guy over here.

Yeah old short toes knowledge today have you guys ever heard about my giant big toe It's very large.

Please tell me.

Like, is this real?

Yeah.

It's every bit of that part of my shoe.

I'd love to go off camera with you on this.

Oh, I'll show you.

I'll let you.

I've got a gnarly big toe as well.

You got one?

You ever seen on movies when they hit their thumb with a hammer and it's like, that's my toe all the time.

This is paywall.

Don't show them piggies off for free.

No, no, no.

This is off camera here.

This is a good time to pitch our only fans.

So we're putting it.

Just feet pics of us.

Anything you want to talk about your feet, Drake?

We've got it about, okay.

We've got pretty standard feet.

Oh, there was something about his feet.

What was it about his feet that he stepped on something, he said?

I stepped on a grill grate.

A grill.

Which ties into Drake's family trying to saute and season him his entire life.

That's where it began.

The family got a whiff of Drake.

Yeah.

Wait a minute.

We might be on to something.

They make him walk hot coals.

I wonder what happened if we marinate that.

Put that cauldron in the bathroom.

See if we can trick him.

What that boy tastes like.

Some varsity blues anyway.

10 out of 10.

Fine movie.

Favorite line from the movie.

What do you got?

I don't want your lie.

Yeah.

Oh, that's what that was from.

Golly.

I would have said that was Friday Night Live.

The funniest part, no matter when I watch it, I always die laughing when Paul Walker throws the football and knocks the beer can off his dad's head and his dad does that.

Yeah.

I was like, that gets me every time.

I forgot about Paul Walker being there too.

Yeah.

He's a quarterback, ain't he?

Lance.

We're part of it.

Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

He gets like a broken lap.

He also becomes a head coach.

Who replaces him?

Who's the actor that does that?

Mox.

That's James Van Der Beek.

Dawson's Creek.

Oh, Van Der Beek.

Oh, full again by the Van Der Beek.

With a terrible Texas Taring accent.

That's terrible, Dawson.

Oh, the worst.

Yes.

Yeah.

It's all coming back.

He doesn't get, you know, there's a lot of discussion about worse Southern accents in movies.

We don't really give him enough credit for that performance.

You know, that was God-awful.

He's the one that said that line, ain't he?

I don't know.

I can see it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That's fine.

Your life.

Your life.

Then he played a Canadian on How I Met Your Mother.

Yeah.

He's got to be a Canadian, right?

He might be.

He's the most Canadian-looking person I've ever seen in my life.

I'm going on name alone.

Vanderbeek.

I feel like Vanderbeek is.

Yeah.

That's not of U.S.

Descent for sure.

No.

Everybody knows Vandersloot.

Not a great reputation.

Yep.

Especially here in Alabama.

Nope.

Also not a Southerner.

No.

Both of those guys.

Dutch.

Dutz.

Yeah.

Yeah, he is Dutch.

Well, those are good hoots and hollers.

That was.

I do have an honorable mention, and I didn't.

The only reason it's not my hoot is because I know some of y'all may not have seen it.

It was 10 Cup.

It's the best golf movie ever made.

I've watched it once, but I don't remember anything about it.

Best golf movie ever made.

Kevin Costner.

Yeah.

Boy, Kevin Costner and sports movies.

Fire in the 90s.

Yeah, went off.

On fire.

Went off.

What a combo.

And Rene Russo.

Rene Russo.

Yep.

And Cheech.

Really?

Cheech Maron was his caddy.

Okay.

Great golf movies.

There's so many.

There's quite a few.

There's more than you can think.

I was going to say.

That bagger van.

Nobody, nobody.

No, Happy Gilmore.

Nobody hooted or hollered.

I was surprised about that, too.

But you have Adam Sandler movie.

Yeah.

Mine is.

Is your hoot.

I almost changed it just now because what you said, 10 Cup, for some reason, I always picture the movie Kingpin as that movie for some reason.

Awesome movie.

The bowling movie.

Yeah.

Also 90s though, right?

Yeah.

Or 80s.

No, I think it was 90s.

90s?

90s.

Yeah.

I should have went with that, but I'm not.

I'm going with Waterboy.

Yeah.

Hard to beat.

It's such a triumphant sports story.

So believable.

Inspirational, if you will.

Everything about it is an absolute masterpiece.

Yeah, I agree.

Peek, Adam Sandler, probably his best.

They picked the perfect, like, group of Southerners that you could parody like that because Cajuns are the only ones that will, like, they're in on the joke and they think it's hilarious.

And nobody's going to pick apart the accent either.

Right.

Because who knows?

No, exactly.

You can get as crazy as you want with it.

Yeah.

And they did.

And they did.

Yeah.

Oh, what's his name?

Coach.

Coach Fran.

Oh, my God.

I mean, legendary movie character.

Blake.

Absolutely.

Also from Boy Meets World.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Wow, the connections for sports movies in Boy Meets World is insane.

It probably ends right there.

I don't know if y'all heard me, but Vader plays Ethan Suplees Dad in Boy Meets World.

The wrestler Vader.

He does.

What was the...

No, we're not going to...

No, no, no.

We're not going to get into one of these.

We'll say sitcoms.

Tell us more about Waterboy.

I don't have to tell you anything about it.

You guys know it as well as I do.

I'm going to ask everybody that favorite line from their Hoot movie.

Favorite line.

I don't know about the favorite line, but just his whole obsession with Captain Insano.

Oh, yeah.

The easy answer would have been, my mama says, my mama says.

Yeah.

I'm going to say the alligator.

I'm going to say alligator's so angry because they got teeth.

I like when the coach is like, what's the matter?

Are you so stupid?

Mine's Vicky showed me her tatas, and I like them, too.

Oh, yeah.

His mama did not like that.

Great casting.

Kathy Bates is his mama.

Henry Winkler is the coach.

Boy, they really showed that.

The casting on it was.

The Roy Orbison tattoo.

Yeah.

The what?

The Roy Orbison tattoo.

I forget who's got that on.

Henry Winkler.

Henry Winkler.

When his left chat's right.

That's right.

Or when he's stomping in the high heels.

I hate him.

I hate him.

I hate him.

I forgot all about that.

I didn't even watch that movie.

The phone's not even plugged in.

He's talking to his grandma.

On a cut-off cordless phone, or corded phone.

Dude, when he first has his breakthrough and loses it, and he's like, Oh, my gosh.

Boy, he was out there powerbombing people.

Everything.

I like the SportsCenter spoof that spun from it during the movie when they're like, well, Michigan tried the same thing with their water boy and he gets laid out.

He's no Boucher.

Yeah, that movie.

Or, wake our ass up.

We got a game tomorrow.

Rob Schneider's cameos were one of the best parts.

That's what I love about Sandler.

he like he took his core group of guys and has just put them all and he even reprised that role in The Longest Yard Rob Schneider did at the end yeah, oh wow which you know what you can do it you can do it it's not a bad it's not 90s but that was a good movie that was a great movie I enjoyed that movie yeah, it's a good mindless watch there's not it's not deep it's just fun that was a well done remake mmhmm Nelly yeah mmhmm he can run that ball no I like Terry Crews with cheeseburgers is the best thing.

Oh, yeah.

That's funny.

Where does he get them from?

You got to always protect the McNuggets.

He looks around.

Yeah, I love that.

You got the fries.

That'll cross your eyes.

You want me to do my hoot?

I might as well.

Oh, you're hollering?

You hollered about the Waterboy.

I'm at hoot.

Still doesn't know how this show works.

You hooted the Waterboy.

I don't care, man.

Do you like the Waterboy or no?

I like it.

Okay.

Now we're going to go with what you don't like, also called your holler.

Holler.

Mm-hmm.

It means that this is stupid, this movie.

Yeah, because it's not the Waterboy.

And I guarantee you, maybe one of you has seen it.

But it's 1996 Matt LeBlanc Ed Ed Oh my god with a monkey's a pitcher he's a third baseman or something Oh yeah he plays a few positions Yeah The only good thing Have you seen it?

I have seen the poster Oh my gosh I don't think I've watched the movie before It is horrific It's not MTV It is not a sports movie in any way since or form other than the fact that they're on a baseball field How did the monkey get on the team?

They brought him in on a bus.

He's wearing clothes.

You should have seen his contract.

It was bananas.

Whoa.

He did not play for Peanuts.

Why do the Savannah Bananas have a monkey?

Do they like peanuts?

It's an elephant.

Yeah.

Give him time.

The middle age women don't really care for that too much.

I'm ripping on the Savannah Bananas again.

Stop it.

I'm trying to really get a long-standing feud with the Savannah Bananas together and it's not really taking off.

The only thing that came from that movie for me was learning about chocolate-covered, like, frozen bananas.

From Ed?

Yeah.

Is that what they, that's what his contract is?

That was where that broke ground for you?

That's what you took away from it.

What else are you going to take away from it?

Nothing.

Because it sucks.

How does it end?

I don't remember that.

Is it, like, rookie of the year, the monkey loses his ability all of a sudden?

No, so a funny thing happened.

I don't think the monkey was, like, an air bud type.

No, he was a phenom.

Yeah.

Was he?

He belonged to Mickey Mandel.

And somehow, Seth, Mickey Mousel, somehow he ends up on this bus and they're playing for a minor league team, Matt LeBlanc is.

He's a pitcher that can throw absolute heat, but he gets stage fright real bad.

The monkey does.

No, Matt LeBlanc.

Joey.

Speaking of terrible baseball movies, I just thought of one.

But they, I don't remember why they bring this monkey in, but he ends up living with Matt LeBlanc and chaos ensued.

Yeah.

So it was like a, like a emotional support monkey.

But did y'all watch Friends?

Yeah.

This is the only thing that ever made sense to me about it was like, it felt like they plucked when Matt LeBlanc's character on Friends had the monkey, him and, what was the other guy's name?

Ross?

Chandler?

Ross.

He was a tall guy, right?

I don't know.

I don't know how tall they were.

They did have that monkey, didn't they?

Yeah.

I was like, is this supposed to be like a spoof?

Are we doing a spinoff here?

Well, we were really big on monkeys in the 90s there, didn't we?

Oh, yeah.

Lots of monkey movies.

But this one was different because it was like a little man in a chimpanzee suit.

It wasn't even a real chimpanzee.

I'm sorry.

Nuh-uh.

Yeah, it was, too.

They put a man in a suit.

Yeah.

Small man.

Small man in a chimpanzee suit.

And he could play some baseball, son.

Gene Wilder got the contract signed for him.

Mm-hmm.

Orange is the same.

So you ask what happened in the end.

I don't know.

Well, what's the moral of the story here?

I think everything works out okay.

I don't know.

Monkey ends up back where he belonged.

I don't know if he gets any better.

Yeah.

Stage fright and all that, but he learned some things from having a monkey live with him for a little while, you know?

Yeah.

But so what happens?

I bet you do.

They trade his monkey off.

So they think they sell him and they're selling him to these like circus people.

And Matt LeBlanc goes to like find him and stuff.

And he finds him and they've got this monkey in a cage wearing like a clown suit.

And they're just shocking him, torturing him.

The monkey.

But it's not a monkey.

Yeah.

No.

In the movie, it's a monkey.

Well but it's a little it could be a child i don't know yeah they were like we're gonna we got shocked bring in the real monkey for this yeah that kid's fast out three times yeah but i don't know what happens after that really that i know that's how he gets him back he go i don't know beats him up or gets him or something i don't know did you watch this like back in the day in the 90s when it came out i don't know when i watched i can't remember him out because that's just i feel like one that's been played on cable a lot no it's not i bet cable companies didn't even try to buy this movie.

It's so bad.

They're like, man, we are not showing that.

Straight to VHS.

It is, it's garbage.

Is this streaming anywhere?

Can we go, can we go watch it?

I bet they wiped it off the face of the earth.

You might have to rent it for free.

Where can I?

That feels painfully accurate.

Oh, you know what the monkey's name was?

Ed, obviously.

Ed Sullivan was the monkey's name.

Oh my God.

Best monkey movie.

In case you guys don't know, he had a, he had a, more than a King Kong guy myself.

The same year, there was another movie called Eddie, starring Whoopi Goldberg as a basketball coach.

I bet I remember that one.

Also a sports movie.

Yeah, that does sound.

We really, we really.

What was that baseball movie they were playing in the Cape Cod League, and I can't think of the guy's name to save my life.

Big in the 90s, though.

That is kind of.

No.

Billy Crystal.

Bull Durham?

One of the heartthrob, like, 90s guys.

In the Cape Cod League.

James Van Der Beek.

Close.

What was the premise of the movie?

They're playing summer ball in the Cape Cod League, and he falls in love with the girl who— Kate Hudson, Freddie Prinze Jr.

Freddie Prinze Jr., yeah.

That's it.

I can't remember the name of it, but I know the movie.

I think it's like Summer Pitch or something like that.

That's it.

Yeah.

Summer Pitch.

I bet that's worse than that Ed movie.

Probably.

There's more baseball in it.

Ed has some baseball.

Well, yeah.

I mean, it had some.

But it was mainly that that monkey was sleeping in the bed with him and being there farting and stuff all the time, too.

And they, like, he peed in the toilet and everything.

It was a domesticated monkey.

Yeah.

Not very well domesticated.

No.

Well, I just found out that if anybody wants to go watch it, too bad.

It's not streaming anywhere.

You can buy it for $15.

Yeah, absolutely not.

On Apple TV or Amazon.

Or you can just Venmo us.

We've just explained the whole thing, so now you're everyone watching this.

I just told you all the important questions.

$16.

I'm going to see if they actually credit.

Denise Cheshire as Ed.

So it was a woman?

Oh.

She's little.

You misgendered the monkey.

Man, I was just taking a guess.

I don't like any part of this conversation.

It's just...

The monkey was definitely a boy.

I think it's time for Matt to sell a shirt.

What yeah honestly probably a good idea i'm trying to find out who plays the moth, don't matter you don't ever see them all right we'll be right back i feel like they need to be credited for their performance it sounds like it was incredibly good it's a real early casting of peter dinklage dinklage yeah yeah it's like one of his early roles that tracks yeah, For his Game of Thrones fame.

It was Ed and then Game of Thrones.

I'm going to answer that while we take this short little break.

This episode of Hootin' and Hollerin' is brought to you by Hootin' and Hollerin'.

Well, we're halfway in.

We've learned a lot about cinematic monkeys and the whipped cream.

Mm-hmm.

Slash shaving cream.

Mm-hmm.

And Eric's toe.

Yes.

It's a big one.

Big toe.

Tell me the guy.

Toenail for the video.

Mm-hmm.

All right, you can leave.

That was too much.

You've done your part here.

Yeah.

I hate myself.

We appreciate your services.

It's okay.

I hate me, too.

Please.

He hate me.

He hate me.

Oh.

Another 90s.

God.

What a time, those first two weeks of the XFL where people cared.

Yeah.

What was our team?

The Bolts.

Birmingham Bolts.

Which, I will say, we had a very sweet helmet.

The B front center with the lightning bolts coming off of it.

That was a cool helmet.

That was cool.

The Birmingham Fire was not a great helmet.

You guys remember the Barracudas?

Yes.

I think about that every once in a while.

It was a great time.

What were they?

Were they Canadian football?

I think it was CFL.

I thought it was baseball for some reason.

That's the Barons.

We always been the Barons.

Always the Barons.

Steel Dogs.

Steel Dogs Arena Football was awesome.

I never went, but I know it did really well.

Yeah, I don't know why.

The Bulls were the hockey team.

It's back.

It's in Pelham.

It's not the same.

I've not been down there.

He's played at Bartow, right?

I can't remember.

no they used to play the BJCC yeah, Marto sounds good, though.

Yeah.

That'd be a good place to watch hockey.

Well, obviously.

Do we know the difference down here?

Yeah.

I mean, we can't look at it and tell.

We don't care at all.

Them boys can skate.

That's the only criteria for it.

Yeah.

That's like, you know, we allow Canadians to play football.

But, like, I mean, we know.

They don't know what they're doing.

Their field is wider and longer, right?

Yeah, they got some weird stuff.

It's 120 yards, I think.

Yeah, and we didn't bother to correct him either.

We just let him do it.

Yeah.

You know, we saw it.

We were like, this is pretty funny.

Should we tell him?

No.

No.

No, let him do it.

He ran the ball foul.

78 meters on 32 carries.

Yeah.

What?

Yeah, it doesn't even.

That don't compute.

It feels wrong.

Yeah.

Yeah.

First in three pints of syrup.

John Madden did not die for that.

No.

No, he did not.

You've seen Nick Cage as John Madden?

Oh, I did see a picture of that.

Yeah.

Wow.

I can't wait for that.

I hadn't seen that.

I bet he pulls that off pretty well.

I hope he does.

I was going to holler.

I hope he has himself a Brendan Fraser moment.

The thing about that movie was, why is John Madden stopping to ask a bunch of kids for directions?

That seems like a John Madden thing to do, honestly.

He's on a bus, ain't he?

Yeah.

Yeah.

He had the Raiders with him.

Where, what movie was that?

Little Giants.

Oh, yeah.

It was a good movie.

Great movie.

Yeah.

Love Little Giants.

Did you say you were going to holler about it?

Yeah.

Just that one bit.

Just that one.

One moment.

When I was going to talk about, like, bad parts of certain movies instead of just one movie.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That was part of it.

It was just one of them classic 90s celebrity cameos out of nowhere.

Yeah.

Yeah.

My favorite is Little Rascals with Reba is the race car driver.

Bro.

Yeah.

And then you had Donald Trump just chilling in the crowd.

That's full alert.

Oh, of that?

Little Rascals?

Yeah, Little Rascals.

Oh.

I didn't know that.

He's what's his dad?

You're right.

You're right.

Baron.

Yeah.

I guess we'll call him.

It's Barron's origin story.

Before he became eight foot tall lurch.

That's so wild.

That's the tallest man I've ever seen.

Yeah, Bruce Pearl, if you're watching, get on that.

He plays soccer.

Not well.

Future Senator Bruce Pearl.

Have you seen the news?

I hope so.

I'd vote for him.

Auburn's produced one good one already.

Yeah, Auburn's trying to produce a governor.

Yeah, careful now.

Yeah.

I could do multiple episodes on that.

But we, let's get you to change subjects, Shane.

I'll just stick with the, no, are we going?

Because Eric screwed it up.

I thought we were hollering first and then.

No, you could go with any word.

Naturally.

So long as you remember what the hoot and the holler is.

How you winning?

Traditional.

Title war.

Yeah.

All right.

Well, I'm going to start it off with my holler.

Yeah.

Since I think that's where the premise of this episode started.

And my holler is the 1996 classic Celtic Pride.

Don't know if it was a cult classic, but I do know it is a god-awful movie.

I do remember the movie, its existence.

I'll say this.

I don't know if I ever watched it.

I don't think I've ever watched it.

It's like I'm picturing another movie.

It's Dan Aykroyd and Damon Wayans.

Oh, my gosh, yeah.

Don't they kidnap?

They kidnap him.

Oh, yeah.

I will give it this part.

I could see this being typical Boston fans.

Yeah.

Like, oh, whoa.

Team's not doing well.

Yeah.

Let's commit a felony.

Yeah.

I mean, I would say that's peak Boston sports fan.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

And it looks like the player they kidnapped, it plays for the Jazz?

Yeah.

They were losing to Utah of all teams in the series.

No, no.

Utah was a solid 90s basketball team.

The mailman.

Yeah.

Gave the Bulls a run for their money in multiple finals.

Am I having like a Sinbad in that Genie movie moment?

But Michael Rappaport's in that.

Is he in that movie as a Celtics player?

I'll be honest.

I'm not 100% sure.

He kind of looks like Larry Bird.

Yeah.

He might be.

Can y'all picture?

I'm sure he's wore a lot of Celtics jerseys.

No, he is New York to the floor.

Yeah, he is New York to the floor.

That's right.

Is that a big Knicks guy?

Maybe I was thinking he's Irish.

Yeah, he is a New York guy for sure.

Big New York guy.

I don't think he'd even fade being a Boston guy.

He might not.

If it wasn't for the tie-in to the Boston Celtics, I don't think you could really call this a sports movie, but I was looking for a holler, and that was one that stuck out to me.

Call it a sports movie.

It was a Disney film.

It's Buena Vista Motion Pictures Distribution.

That's one of their— That was a Disney film?

That's where they would spin out the ones they didn't spend so much money on.

They would spin it out under Buena Vista.

Yeah.

The more you know.

Was it a— Makes sense, because I'm glad to know they didn't spend any money on that production.

That's probably not Disney Plus, if I'd guess.

Nah.

Nah.

I didn't do any research into finding out where you could stream it.

You don't want to watch it no more.

Yeah, no.

It is as bad of a movie as I can remember watching.

Dan Aykroyd's one of the most random actors in the 90s, because he was either in something really good or really bad.

I guess get you somebody that can do both.

Yeah.

I'm trying to think of something I really like of his.

Ghostbusters.

Yeah, that's it.

Dan Aykroyd?

Yeah.

The Doctor in 50 First Dates.

He was in Tommy Boy.

He was absolutely roasted her brother.

Yeah, he did.

You ever have actors that you, for no reason, you just don't like them?

Like, I don't think I like anything that guy's in.

Then you start thinking, well, that movie was okay.

That movie was okay.

Some people just got a face.

Yeah.

Dan Eckhart's got a face.

Most people.

He's got a face.

I don't like faces.

He was in Trading Places.

Is that what the name of that movie is?

Yeah.

I love that movie.

Yeah.

It was a great movie.

Christmas movie.

Yeah.

For sure.

Counts.

Yep.

Is that like the same one, the same concept as that one?

What's the name?

Gene Wilder?

And Brewster's Millions?

No.

John Candy?

Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor?

Oh.

Oh, yeah.

Is that like the same concept?

No.

No.

That movie's awesome.

What's that called?

Oh, God.

I forgot.

silver streak that's what it's called well there's silver streak there's that's something you'd watch on hbo after midnight i can't remember the there's three of them that they're in but i can't remember those two yeah well one they swap places right oh i was thinking of the one where one is deaf the other is blind that's say no ever yeah yes okay i forgot i forgot there were multiple movies I think when we're all 90s movies, I'm just putting a whole bunch of movies together.

Well, they're very much a lot.

It's easy to do, and that's a rookie move right there.

That's my fault.

Wow.

My ringer is always off.

Yeah, I don't know anybody that keeps their ringer off.

What was that, like, little pixie dust sound of your ringer?

What was that?

That's the ring camera.

It's everyone's ring camera thing.

Not mine.

Oh, you got that reject thing at your house.

Mine is just an armed robot that just shoots whoever shows up on the property without invitation.

I've seen yours.

It's on like a tent stake, and it's a little camera.

Like, this is good enough.

Let's just out the guy who's house security who actually has people show up at his house.

You did have somebody download the GIS, didn't you?

No, that being said, it does the job.

And that's only one camera that I can see.

Let's deploy it.

That's not actually a camera.

I also have multiple guns.

Please don't come knocking on my door in the middle of the night.

What is that down there in the real cameras somewhere else?

Exactly.

That's the decoy.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That one you're supposed to look at, and then there's the one with a gun attack, a turret, that will just take you out.

On the back of the head.

One shot.

He's got a roof-mounted .50 cal up there that's just itching to get a fire or shot off.

Yeah.

I hope he's got something better than that little camera.

Yeah.

Well, our neighborhood's crazy.

I'm pretty sure it was.

You want to come down here?

It was a gun pose.

this was wild man that was a GoPro duct tape to the stick yeah it was the original GoPro GoPro 2 maybe yeah it's still there it's leaning pretty bad but yeah he wrote it's still hanging yeah, So what's your hoot, Shane?

Oh, man.

Well, I went with the worst sports movie I could think of because I was going with the greatest sports movie of all time, Remember the Titans.

Which we did.

It's a technicality.

Yeah, yeah.

Filmed.

But it filmed in 99.

Filmed in 99, released in 2000, allegedly.

But it does have a good 90s movie feel.

Yeah, it's 100% 90s movie.

Yeah, it feels like it.

Charisma.

Yeah.

I mean, I love it.

Oh, yeah.

It's perfect.

To me, I know a lot of people say it didn't age well or whatever.

I don't know.

I think it's one of the best football movies.

Yeah.

I haven't watched it in a very long time.

That's insane.

It's one I just put on in the background and let play a lot.

Yeah.

It's one of those that it doesn't matter where you catch it at, you're going to finish it out.

Oh, yeah.

So good.

Denzel Washington is...

Denzel, that's really all you guys say.

That's it.

And then that other guy that plays the assistant coach, who I saw a lot of them in a movie.

Yeah, he's a great actor in that, too.

And then you got little Hayden Panettiere.

Panettiere.

Yeah, Panettiere.

As the daughter.

Or she married a boxer.

Did she?

Yeah.

Pentatonix.

Klitschko.

One of the Klitschko brothers.

Yeah, one of the Klitschko brothers.

Really?

Yeah.

Wow.

Wow.

I've seen an interview with her not too long ago.

It seemed like she was doing too good.

Well, she married a boxer.

Yeah.

She looked punch drunk.

Also, she's around already, so she's aging.

We're getting up there.

She's probably getting real close to 40, if not already there.

Yeah.

Surely, she's probably got dementia.

Middle-aged now.

Dementia.

That's about when it sets in.

Feels about right for me.

Yeah.

I can't remember nothing.

They did remind me of a meme that i saw that was uh saying bill belichick and his girlfriend is going to be a lot like that coach and his daughter like her yelling in the stands the place yeah yeah and kind of feel already that that actor yeah no i can't he's been in like he'll pop up in a movie you didn't know he's in and he'll you'll he'll use that actor we'll go oh my god where do i know him from wasn't he also in the oh what's the movie where they They drilled an asteroid that was going to kill Armageddon.

Isn't that him?

Yeah, he's in that.

Oh, Billy Bob Thornton?

No.

Close.

Will Patton.

Will Patton.

Hey.

There you go.

Let me see a picture of him.

That's why part of me always want to say he's Bill Paxton.

No, but the name is very close.

Same thing.

He is generic white guy dad.

He is a good mix of Bill Paxton and Billy Bob Thornton.

He's also in Armageddon.

Hey, let me see a picture of him.

Man, where you been?

Sorry, I was looking up his name.

Sorry.

Hey, that was a loaded movie, too.

Armageddon had some star power.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Need your bifocals?

Also, Ethan Supley is in Remember the Titans.

Yeah.

He is, yeah.

Golly, what do they call him?

Oh, Blastic.

Louis Lastic.

Louis Lastic, yeah.

Come on.

I said plastic.

Can we, while we're on this, I want to get y'all's take on it, because it's never clear to me exactly what California is the deal with him.

Is he just a hippie or is he gay?

He's a California dreamboat.

But what, because it's not clear.

They insinuate that he might be gay in the locker room, I think it is.

Well, when you kiss another man directly on the mouth, it does, you know, open it to interpretation.

But it didn't look like he was enjoying it, though.

It at least starts the conversation.

Yeah, fruitcake on.

Yeah.

Fruitcake on.

But there's nothing else.

It's just that.

And also, it's like, where'd you get that from?

Because he has long hair?

That seems like a little more than implying.

Well, they don't ever, you know, in the movie anyway, specifically show him with a female interest.

And he does become the star quarterback.

So you would think...

Given any other high school football movie, the star quarterback typically has a female love interest.

I mean, you've never given your teammate a little smooch on the lips as a celebration?

No.

Pat on the butt and smooch on the lips.

That's what my coach always said.

Yeah.

I think I've seen it on a t-shirt.

One of the internal debates I've always had.

That's like hugging a kiss and the batter won't miss.

That's what my coach always said.

Before he went to jail.

Mine always said, take your shot.

when he says show me is he saying show me Bama?

Yeah.

What?

Yeah.

Well thing of the time frame this was early 70 no 60s right?

Remember the Titans?

Yeah.

No 70 60s late 60s early 70s Little thing called Intergrist.

There was a team back then that was I don't know really freaking good.

Who was it?

Pretty sure that was a correlation.

Dallas Cowboys.

Yeah.

I thought so.

Well I was curious if it was because he was from Alabama.

Yeah, wasn't that other half?

Well, also, I do think he is from Alabama, because if you remember the bus ride up, he says, I don't want to hear your Muscle Shoals singing on this bus either.

Oh, there you go.

Okay.

So which one's Bama?

Heavyset.

Blue.

Blue.

The one singing that you know about.

What?

Deck tracks.

Muscle Shoals, apparently.

We build them bigger down here.

We some biggins.

So.

Big boys.

Mm-hmm.

Buttery biscuit.

Yeah.

And also the Gettysburg speech that Denzel gives is top three greatest sports movie speeches.

And that soundtrack.

Oh, the soundtrack.

Which they released.

Every song in that movie, I think they landed.

They got on that soundtrack.

I had that CD I play.

I still got it somewhere.

It's great.

That'd be a good little side topic right there.

I'd go on Herb Brooks' Miracle.

I think you were originally going to do Any Given Sunday.

That one is.

His speech and Denzel's Gettysburg are...

Gene Hackman and Hoosiers is pretty good.

You're looking at him like, you got an opinion.

Usually, Friday Night Live is just hanging.

Yeah.

I mean, it's great.

All right, flip any given Sunday, are you going to fight for that inch, die for that inch.

Yeah, Pacino delivered it with some intense...

Rudy's great, too.

Rudy?

Yeah.

Yeah.

I was just thinking about it.

The whole premise of the Rudy movie was that every player at Notre Dame was going to give up their spot so he could get some playing time.

Hey, that, the speech.

I would do it for Rudy.

Not 90s, but the speech that Rocky gives to his son in Balboa.

Oh, yeah.

Gets fired up.

Oh, yeah.

I'm going to invite my whole family, son.

Get in here.

There's time, boys.

Y'all go outside.

Daddy's watching Rocky again.

Yeah.

You see the speech he's giving to his son?

You ain't getting nothing like that.

Bring it on.

I'm sleeping in the carport tonight.

Fight me like a man.

Get up, boy.

Oh, remember the Titans.

Yeah.

Remember the Titans.

Biggest travesty was how they destroyed that Camaro in that movie.

Well.

Destroyed a few other things, but.

Yeah.

Mainly Camaro.

That man's life.

That's the most important part.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Not.

They didn't do that General Lee any favors either.

Either one of them.

No.

But yeah.

A great hoop.

Thank you.

Solid.

Yeah, that's pretty good, Shane.

Yeah.

Quite quick, Another U is the movie with Gene Wilder and Richard Power where they switch places.

Man, they really.

Life trading places.

They had a run there, didn't they?

Yep.

It's just swap roles.

Mm-hmm.

They're like Dwayne the Rock Johnson and the little guy.

Kevin Hart.

Kevin Hart.

Yeah.

Yeah.

We really downgraded, didn't we?

Yeah, that's not near as good.

No.

I guess they're saying all that.

Yeah.

There's a lot of rock fatigue right now.

People are very tired of seeing The Rock.

Oh, no.

He's about to do something big.

Have you seen the trailer for the Smashing Machine?

Oh, yeah.

That does look good.

No.

It's called The Smashing Machine.

The Smashing Machine.

It's about Mark Kerr.

Yep.

The old UFC fighter.

There's a documentary about him with the same name, but this is a movie about it.

The Rock, it looks incredible.

He plays the main character.

No way you could tell it's him if you didn't know, like, for real.

Really?

Yeah.

It looks amazing.

I'm hoping it's like a big kind of, you know, you always have those actors like, oh, they finally did something serious.

Yeah.

Yeah, I hope it's one of those for him.

Did you say the rock in Bass and Curious was in a serious role?

Oh, well.

It was.

Yeah.

It might be good.

A24 usually.

That's enough to make me think there's a chance.

It's got a vibe of like the wrestler.

That's what I was going to say.

The Saturday Brothers did the uncut gems with Adam Sandler.

Which is good.

That is a great movie.

It's a great.

Also a sports movie.

Oh, yeah.

You count it.

Who is that?

Oh, you could absolutely.

Kevin Durant.

Golly.

Yeah, yeah.

Kevin Durant.

I was picturing Lamar Odom.

That would have been.

Different block.

Different kind of ice he was into.

Oh, hey-oh.

And that man just, he just died in it, didn't he?

For several days.

Yeah.

Get a look out of my back.

What was the other Sandler basketball movie with the big Serbian guy?

I never watched it, but I know what you're talking about.

it's uh he's like a or Spanish guy he's like a he's a scout for Philadelphia yeah that's actually pretty good yeah, I don't know can't think of what it's called yeah it's a great movie yeah I know what you're talking about I've always meant to watch it, This is, this, this whole, uh, we're really leaning into this is what.

Well, we went hyper-focused 90s.

If you had a podcast from the 90s, is it?

Because we're not looking up really anything on IMDb or Wikipedia.

We're just, that's how it used to be, folks.

Yep.

What, who was that?

We'll never know.

No.

This is a real podcast.

It's not in grandma's dusty old encyclopedia Britannica set back here.

So, which we should totally get.

We're just telling the movies as we remember them.

Well, finish it up here with my holler hoot.

Which my holler is really the entire Air Buds cinematic universe.

Which started unfortunately in the 90s that's my holler I liked the first one bro that clown I liked the first one I rewatched it just to see if like yeah let me see if I'm really gonna holler about this yeah I am it's crap first of all like you think of Air Bud what's the moment if you watched it, the vanilla puddin' cup is the moment that always like, when he's trying to get rid of them, no That's, no.

That's stereotypical.

Kids gotta let the animal go crying.

I just remember his cute little wristbands that he wore.

Air Buds.

Oh, yeah.

He had little shoes on.

He had little tennis shoes.

Are they?

Who knows?

I remember trying to teach my dog to shoot free throws.

Could have been the same actor in the dog suit.

Just giving your dog concussions.

You tried to teach your dog to do that?

When I was a kid, he was walking in basketballs at his dog's hand.

Yeah.

What's the, say I wanted to do that.

What's the first step?

How far did you get?

Well, you got to get a basketball goal.

Of teaching your dog basketball?

How far did you get it?

Bounce the ball towards the dog and see what happens.

That's why Drake's dog was so confused.

He didn't have a basketball goal.

In the movie, you need to be owned by an abusive clown.

He's showing him videos of seals.

Which, again, another 90s animal sports movie owned by a deranged clown slash circus member.

So...

Hey, wasn't it?

Barnum and Bailey should have saw the writing on the wall.

It was culturally they're waking up to us.

It's time we should probably get rid of the U.S.

They didn't do it.

They had lied to them.

That clown called Justice in the Green Mall.

Yeah.

Hey, wasn't Bow Wow one of those Air Bud movies?

No, he did.

That was like Mike.

He found Michael Jordan's shoes.

Yeah.

He had magic powers.

So, yeah, Air Bud sucks.

The part I was getting to is I really, I had to fast forward because it was trash.

And I was like, let me just get to where he wins the basketball game.

He don't get into a basketball game.

They check him in, and you get that famous moment of, dog can't play basketball.

There's nothing in the rule book.

It says dog can't play basketball.

It's not in there.

It says they can play.

Right.

That bull crap, which is like, we just grinlit 50 Air Bud movies.

That's it.

Doesn't he play other sports in the other movies?

Two years later, or maybe just one year later, I think, He's playing football And then two years later He's playing soccer He gets into all of it Except baseball Difficult for That's too hard A dog to play And also monkeys Apparently already had it On lockdown He would have spent Too much time Chewing on the bat Yeah Everybody knows The best dog To ever play basketball Was Teen Wolf Yeah For sure And Travis Tritt And Travis Tritt And now everybody Returns keys For Ole Miss's football team Apparently What does?

Old Air Bud no I mean Juice Kiffin you know Lance Dog he does the.

I think he does that.

I don't know what's going on over there.

Anyway, Air Bud sucks.

Mahoot is, it's like a pseudo sports movie, and that's heavyweights.

Oh, yeah.

Because there is like a, all the culmination of the whole plot is this competition against the rival camp of fit young men.

So it's versus them.

And it's a lot of sports, which they lose.

I cannot think of what movie that was when you first said it.

Heavyweights is, if you.

It's like a summer camp movie?

Yeah.

It's Fat Camp.

These kids go to Fat Camp.

This movie, we're running a long time, so I'm going to pitch it to you if you've not seen it yet, is worth a rewatch or just watching it again for the first time.

And I can't say that for many 90s kids movies.

But this one was, this was Judd Apatow's first movie that he wrote and directed.

He co-wrote and co-directed.

Oh, yeah.

So it's Judd Apatow.

I have not seen it.

So a lot of, if you like Judd Apatow's stuff, you will appreciate this movie, even though the jokes are packaged in like a way for children.

But there's stuff I go back and watch as an adult that you can see like, that's funny like I don't think I caught that joke as a kid but just the way the characters are playing it's funny that's a good one to watch with the kids you said yeah absolutely yeah I watched it as a kid as a fat kid by that description it sounds perfect yeah Ben Stiller was awesome but it is loaded with talent because you've got Ben Stiller, as the bad guy in the movie Tony Perkis very much playing, like what appears to be the character that became the character he was in Dodgeball yeah like it's.

Eerily similar like that's pretty much the same guy he just tapped into that yeah poor dodgeball yeah.

Also Kenan Thompson is in it as well and one of the guys from Mighty Ducks two of the guys from Mighty Ducks the main character was in the first Mighty Ducks Melio Escoffes, he's not Paul Feig is in it and he's done some comedy stuff but then he's been behind the camera doing a lot of directing and stuff since then but he directed a bunch of episodes of The Office but he plays the skinny cam counselor in that movie oh that's same guy yeah did not know that yep I've gotta watch it the more you know it is it is it is a good, so good The Blob there are some fat jokes at the very beginning that I find offensive today but I will let it slide because at the end the fat kids win and so it's all good I will forgive him for that.

Oh, dude.

Yeah.

Yeah, sorry.

What did you think?

The fat kids were going to lose?

You think the whole movie is going to make fun of the fat kids and then the fat kids lose at the end?

I thought they were going to get skinny and just conform.

We don't have to.

We don't have to.

This is our chance to win at something.

In real life, fat kids get destroyed.

Everything in between is hilarious, though.

Yeah, but it's real funny.

Go-kart.

Seymour Butts is still.

It's Seymour Butts.

It's so good.

When they.

He's like, I snuck some Oreos into camp.

and they're like, oh no, download chipmunks.

And then they like everybody, all these fat kids have like stuffed cupcakes in their pants and everything.

It's the most.

Eric's like, what's the point in watching it?

Yeah.

Because you want to see these kids put cupcakes.

Keep going.

The last words Eric said were, I'm going to go watch that.

And then there's what can I.

Since then has had the entire movie spoiled to him.

Listen, this is.

Not the entire movie.

This isn't Dune or something.

Okay.

There's no great big like, you know, series wide plot here.

It's just fat kids go to fat camp I'll just go watch them Oops, it's not the fat camp you thought you signed up for, And then, after you watch it We need to rent a blob, Oh, my God.

One thing to jump on?

I've always wanted.

That would be good.

Yeah, they knew.

What would fat kids excel at?

Launching each other.

Launching each other.

Yeah.

Using their weight.

You only get to jump.

You can't lay on it.

Just throwing their weight into something.

Didn't Jerry Steeler?

Jerry Steeler was the original camp owner, right?

Yeah, that's one thing that did not age well to me because I think the joke is that, ha, these old people couldn't manage their money.

But looking at it now, especially from the lens of somebody that worked in elderly exploitation, you're like oh no they got exploited and he cries the end like don't let people sign your checks you know like as a joke and i'm like oh no that's actually solid class you shouldn't do that buddy.

Yeah that's real world yeah yeah don't do that so yeah i was like was this funny because this is sad now all right such a good movie but they're only that's only like two minutes of screen time don't worry about it you said you said that last thing you said that's right at the end, what by the checks no I said very beginning huh.

That's the plot twist that really kicks that really kicks act two into gear does it yeah, watch heavy that's definitely not a go pee moment you need to be in your seat for that okay okay as if you don't pause the movie at your home you got a time stamp 27 minutes and 13 seconds on the nose done yeah I'll remember that I can't tell you when it's time to go pee but I can tell you when it's time to wrap up the show and that's right quick something very important.

Oh, my God.

Please.

He said, oh, Air Bud does play baseball.

How?

In the 2002 movie, Air Bud, seventh inning fetch.

Oh!

Matt's like, dang it, I got another one to watch.

Please pull up a screen real quick and show me how this dog plays.

Does he hold the bat in his mouth?

There is.

He does hold the bat in his mouth.

Okay.

It's a metal bat.

So we're not playing pro ball.

That's how he would be able to do it.

Wait, is that a raccoon?

Why is there a raccoon?

We tried to spit out.

There is a raccoon in the picture.

That is not real.

You got to throw that up on the screen.

Did you know that they started, all those were like after the first one was in theater, the rest of them were like, I think, direct to video.

And it was the most lucrative video series, direct to video video series for Disney up until Fairies, which is just Tinkerbell movies.

They did like 20 of them, apparently.

Wow.

Yeah.

Volume outsold Air Bud.

This is the Disney story.

Man, just think of Air Bud and that monkey got on the same team.

Can't let his dog win.

That's the end game that we wanted, I think.

We wanted all the animals that played sports in the 90s to get together.

Team.

One team.

And then shoot that entire team into space so we can be done with these stupid movies.

Yeah.

They just needed Denzel to coach them.

If anybody's good at bringing different walks of life together, it was Denzel.

The whole speech would just be him calling them good boy and stuff.

Bunch of good boys.

Yeah.

There he is.

That's the scream.

That's him.

That's our bud.

Look at that legend right there.

Oh, bud.

That's one of those dogs that go like a bat boy dog, I bet.

He's mistaken.

He's a star athlete, but in baseball, he's just the bat boy.

He's the bat boy.

You ever seen the dogs that go get the bats?

Oh, yeah.

Hey, bud.

Go yard.

Don't worry.

Bud's got it.

There's no way that same dog made all those, huh?

Oh, no.

No, no, no.

They use multiple dogs just for one video.

Yeah.

Well, yeah.

Yeah, that's true.

You got to have them.

Yeah, they're like disposable.

You got to have like 50 of them.

Yikes.

The what?

Whoa.

Homeward bound.

We can't.

We are not going to be desperate at homeward bound.

They went through like 40 cats.

In that movie.

When I'm floating on it.

Anyway, for another time.

Yeah.

We'll just hoot and holler.

How many times do you think they shot the waterfall scene?

How many cats?

That's probably where they went through all the cats.

Yeah.

We can't CGI this.

Put another one in the water.

They definitely put them in the water.

Oh, 100%.

Yes.

Yeah.

Yeah.

They ain't no faking that.

No.

They put a dog up against like a bear or whatever it was, a cougar or something.

They really had them there together.

Yeah.

Mountain lion.

It was what they were running from.

And then they also had a bear.

Yeah.

I'm pretty sure the bear and the dog.

That was real square off.

They were really there together.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, for sure.

It was filmed in Japan, I think.

It was.

That's why all this happened.

Why?

Animal rights.

Animal rights.

They killed so many animals.

That's the story.

That's not real.

That's the story.

Look it up.

Wow.

That's the story.

I wasn't there.

I don't know.

That's sad.

You just ruined.

Yeah.

I tried to move on.

I tried to move on.

I tried to say another time.

They were in San Francisco.

That was the second one.

Yeah.

They were out the forest.

Boy, they ain't never getting home from Japan.

The forest.

That's a long story.

They couldn't find home.

Yeah.

That's the second one there in the city.

Yeah.

They always make a city version, don't they?

Yep.

That is.

That's the rest of it.

Out of the country and into the city.

Pig in bay.

Pig in the city.

Pig in the city.

All right.

Well, that is it for this incredible episode.

If you enjoyed this one.

Get medical help.

Yeah.

There's more if you feel so inclined to watch or listen to them.

Check out hootandholler.com for the full list of episodes for merch and for other good things.

Y'all have a good one.

Take care.

God bless.

Tay and mom.

And then we said, hey, Mox, let's roll.

There you go.

All I can do.

All the sports movie quotes.

That was it.

We could have went back to Waterboy.

My mind was blank, and I knew Drake was going to come.

Drake's always got it.

Even if it ain't quite right.

He's got it.

Consistency counts.

I knew he had something ready.

I got this water from a medicine man in Alaska.

See, that would be good.

It took a hot, hot one.

Recut that one.

You hadn't hit stop yet, right?

Okay, good.

Oh, Vanderbilt.
