and it's Time 2 Party. We

are not doctors. We don't give medical advice. Please drink responsibly. This episode is recorded on April 8, 2025 Welcome to our bonus blooper episode for Terminator Genesis. I hope you enjoy this weird collection of random digressions and stuff we just plain messed up. I don't know this floor, so I'm excited for it.
Ansel Burch 0:47
It's weirdly, one of the things that, like I know about you very distinctly, because not only have you told me, but like, multiple people have confirmed they're like, Oh yeah, that hates guy, Courtney. I was just like, what I mean, he's a very mediocre white dude, but, like, what about Jay Courtney doing so much, but he's,
Speaker 1 1:08
like, more mediocre than most he's. I'll get into it on the pod. Just have a very punchable face. Such a punchable face. My God, I
Ansel Burch 1:17
did have a double take because I forgot Matt Smith was in this film for like five seconds. And I was like, Wait, what the fuck
Ansel Burch 1:24
at a time? Doctor? Yeah, it's clear they could only afford him for like, one day of shooting, and they just had to list.
Speaker 1 1:30
Well, actually, it was my understanding that he had a bigger part at one point, and then like, rewrites and things like limited his part. And I'm like, That's so dumb. Why would you do that? Why would you I wonder
Ansel Burch 1:43
if it was supposed to be him the whole time and they just replaced him with the other guy because he was cheaper.
Speaker 1 1:50
Me, I don't know. There's so many reasons that this movie could have been better. Oh
Ansel Burch 1:56
god, yeah, yeah. Is this only our second Terminator? This is Ansel from the future coming in to correct Ansel and Ben from the past. We watched Terminator two back in season three. Don't listen to us. We're wrong about a lot of this.
Speaker 1 2:11
It is, yeah, we did the original Terminator, and now this for episode one. Yeah, yeah. Somehow we managed to skip the best one, which is wild.
Ansel Burch 2:24
Just means we can come back around to it. Yeah, we'll get to Terminator two eventually, which is, I mean, we've also skipped the original Back to the Future, and the first Bill and Ted. So wow, really,
Ansel Burch 2:34
I've actually never seen Back to the Future. Wow, fix that. I so my I grew up with kind of weird hippie parents, and they didn't watch a lot of, like, popular films themselves, so I really missed out on, like, a really large portion of the, like, 80s, 90s movies like Geist, just because, like, my parents never watched them, so nobody showed them to me. And then my friends, like, once I got to, like, high school and college, started finding out that I had, like, never seen Goonies and I had never seen Ghostbusters, and started being like, oh my god, we have to show you these movies. But somehow Back to the Future is one. I've still just, like, never been forced to sit down,
Ansel Burch 3:23
never seen Goonies
Ben Silverio 3:26
wild. To me still, I know, but I'm just picturing Rachel watching, like my Dinner With Andre and like Harold and Maude as a small child. Like,
Rachel Granda-Gluski 3:36
no, my parents were just like big nerds. So like, I watched a lot of Star Wars and Star Trek with my dad, but they didn't really watch, like, popular films. We watched a lot of, like, old movies, because my dad is quite a bit older than I am. So like, we were watching stuff. Like, I watched a lot of musicals. Like, he was really big into, like, classic Hollywood musicals. So we watched a lot of, like, singing in the rain. He would watch anything with like Humphrey Bogart in it. He loved Humphrey Bogart, and so that is what I grew I constantly grew up on, like, what my parents enjoyed as kids. So I listened to a lot of oldies growing up. I didn't listen to popular music until, like, middle school. I'd like, I came to middle school and then they were like, Have you heard of like, Britney Spears? I was like, what?
Ansel Burch 4:28
Oh, you might appreciate this, except I wasn't. I just had weird hippie parents.
Speaker 1 4:34
So for LA's free museum day, one of the museums was the academy museum. And so I went, and it was it was awesome. It's a great museum. Regardless of my feelings about the academy itself, the museum is great, and they have an exhibit currently featuring various things from Casablanca and. They have both of the pianos that Sam plays in the movie, the one from Rick's office and the other one in the restaurant. And I was talking to the curator, or, well, not the curator, but like someone who works at the museum, one of the tour guides, probably, docent sort of person, yeah. And I was asking about, you know, the Casablanca stuff. And they were like, you know, the pianos are actually on loan to us from two very special donors. And I'm like, That's really great. Who are they? The first one is George Lucas. The second one is Lauren Otto DiCaprio. And that that also tracks. And the person I was talking to didn't know whose was whose, but we guessed that great, right? But we guessed that the more iconic one, which is the one where it's like, Play It Again, Sam, play as time goes by, I think that one is George Lucas's. That's my that's my guess. And he said, you know, you're probably right. So I'm gonna I
Ansel Burch 6:11
honestly would have guessed the opposite. I would have thought the like, slightly more obscure piano was George Lucas's, and because I just feel like he would know more about the movie and film and that kind of thing. And I feel like Leonardo DiCaprio would own the more famous P the iconic one. Yeah, yeah. I just
Speaker 1 6:29
figured that, since, you know, the the one was more money that George Lucas probably had that one, you know, but that's fair. You never know Leo Could, could be a softie for for CASA bomb. Leo is also
Ansel Burch 6:44
quite rich and has a big gambling problem. So much money,
Speaker 1 6:48
so much money. God, what's that like? That must be nice.
Ansel Burch 6:54
Apparently, it's overwhelming. Is, is what I understand she is,
Speaker 1 6:57
oh, no, you don't have any debt and you can afford to eat. Oh, poor thing. Oh, no, you can pay rent. Actually, you probably own the house.
Ansel Burch 7:06
Now, I gotta think about supporting two households. And what about the staff?
Ansel Burch 7:13
You mean, I don't have to cry of my cat's $700 vet bill from yesterday. Oh, god, that's such a hard life.
Speaker 1 7:20
Wait, you mean instead of just replacing the tire on your car, you just get a whole new car? Oh, wow,
Unknown Speaker 7:27
yeah, right. God,
Speaker 1 7:30
these people live, like, 10 minutes away from me. Like,
Ansel Burch 7:35
yeah, you can probably see some of them.
Ansel Burch 7:37
What? So this is also, like, what's happening in my parents neighborhood right now, the last time I went home to my parents neighborhood, which used to be full of old hippies like my parents, they were walking around the neighborhood, and they were showing me all these houses that are now like brand new, multi million dollar homes, like just so much money. And they were showing me this house around the corner that is, like, a refurbished farmhouse. That's it was, like, on the market for like, just under a million, and we were just walking past and I was like, Do you guys remember when the house across the street got busted for selling meth? Like, This neighborhood has really changed?
Unknown Speaker 8:14
Wow, yeah.
Ansel Burch 8:16
Does everyone appreciate your parents staying there because it keeps the, like, property values just a little bit lower.
Ansel Burch 8:21
They're not even, no, my parents are actually like, really, like the so it's like a weird battle between the super like, everyone who lives there is mostly white, but like the gentrification of like the rich people coming in and then the weird hippies who still like, keep chickens their neighbor has bees. Like, there's so many places that have chickens in my parents neighborhood that once, when my dad was going for a walk, he found a chicken just like, chilling on the side of the road. And he was like, oh, I should return you to your person. And so he picks the chicken up, looks around, and there are five houses within, like I shot that have chicken? He was like, Oh no. And he went to every single house until he figured out where the chicken lived.
Ben Silverio 9:08
Did the chicken live at the last house that would
Ansel Burch 9:11
be like, like, the second or third house he went to. But they were and they were really grateful, because part of their fence had fallen down. But he did, like, walk up to their front door, knock, and was like, Is this your chicken? Like,
Speaker 1 9:23
did this you get, like, dog tags, but for chickens, you know? Oh, man, yeah,
Ansel Burch 9:29
I feel like they wouldn't stay on. Oh, they
Ansel Burch 9:31
would not. That is absolutely true. Chickens are shaped like, not really
Ansel Burch 9:34
big enough to like, like, I feel like the chicken put its head down, it would just slide off. There's not really big enough head to neck ratio to like, stop it from
Ben Silverio 9:44
What about like, ankle bracelets? Like,
Ansel Burch 9:47
yeah, you can ankle bracelets, but
Ansel Burch 9:49
you don't know how to read like a tag to figure out where it goes. Gonna
Ansel Burch 9:54
get like a scanner. Oh yeah. When I was a kid growing up in the country, like you do. Dog. We would occasionally get the the neighbors cows that would come up into our yard.
Speaker 1 10:07
Oh, the cows have the earrings, right, like that. Say, Yeah, I
Ansel Burch 10:10
mean, but we knew whose cows they were, yeah. Oh, these delinquent
Speaker 1 10:15
cows, they're Yeah. One
Ansel Burch 10:18
of the barns I rode horse is that like once we came in in the morning and there was, like, a sheep in the barn. And we were like, you're new. Where did you come from? Why are you eating our hay? And it was, yeah, it was some neighbor's sheep had, like, gone for a stroll. Yep,
Ansel Burch 10:39
I'm a horse. The horses
Ansel Burch 10:43
were all like, What the fuck is that? Like? What we've never seen a sheep before. What is it? That's not a dog.
Unknown Speaker 10:52
Oh,
Ansel Burch 10:55
well, sheep, yeah, should we do some drinking, smoking rules? I have
Ansel Burch 11:00
good ones. I'm really proud of myself. Well,
Ansel Burch 11:07
it might be for the next one, which I just found out, is happening this year.
Ansel Burch 11:10
Wait, there's another Terminator. Apparently,
Ansel Burch 11:15
I just saw this Terminator, final war.
Ben Silverio 11:20
Oh, isn't that 25
Ansel Burch 11:23
I don't the trailer looks like people. It's got Linda Hamilton in it, really Hamilton, unless this is fake. It could be fake. Hold on, let's let me find out for real if this is an actual thing.
Ben Silverio 11:41
Because I thought I remember,
Ansel Burch 11:42
what is it, dark fate, or whatever the one she's in? Oh yeah, she is that woman has aged like a fine wine. Sure, it's still a babe.
Ben Silverio 11:53
Total badass.
Ansel Burch 11:57
Okay, okay, we're all, we're all okay. That was a fake trailer put together by some jackass on YouTube. All right, we're safe. I guess there is a rumor of a terminator seven movie, and there's a rumor that John Cena might be in it, but that is all there is, Ooh,
Ansel Burch 12:18
interesting. That's actually intriguing. 33
Speaker 1 12:23
John Cena, who is, who's now a bad guy. He turned on all his C nation. He's very evil now,
Ansel Burch 12:33
the wrasselin, yeah,
Ben Silverio 12:34
yeah, yeah, the true American art form,
Ansel Burch 12:42
not me? He'll like talk about these characters, and I do the Yeah, sure, uh huh, okay, great. It's the same face I make when he talks about Warhammer. Uh huh, yeah, sure.
Speaker 1 12:55
Ansel, what's something that you talk about that tab is like, oh, yeah, okay.
Ansel Burch 12:59
I mean, most things, I think we definitely D and D, definitely D and D,
Ansel Burch 13:07
oh yeah,
Ansel Burch 13:08
she she, for a while there, made a good attempt at, like, acting to like she cared. And then I'm lucky if she asks, How did d and d go?
Ansel Burch 13:26
But yes, I know how much he got paid for this
Ansel Burch 13:30
curious, ooh. I mean, if it was supposed to be a bigger part, probably a lot. I
Ansel Burch 13:35
also meant to look it up, like, where this ended up in his filmography? Like, was he still actively doing? Was this post Doctor Who? Post Doctor Who? Yeah, was that? Okay? So this was kind of when he was trying to really break into Hollywood, yes. Okay, I am curious. That makes more sense now.
Speaker 1 13:54
I'm curious now what he did after this. Because where is he? He's He's so far down on the IMDB. No, he's not. He's like fifth, sixth.
Ansel Burch 14:08
I just went straight to his page.
Ansel Burch 14:09
Do you think that the do you think this is worse, this cameo is worse than, what is it Morbius, or in terms of bad movies that he was, he in
Speaker 1 14:22
Morbius. He wasn't Morbius. I honestly just blocked all of Morbius out of my mind.
Ansel Burch 14:31
I still haven't seen it. I just know it's terrible.
Ansel Burch 14:35
This was before last night in Soho, which was the last movie we covered him in.
Speaker 1 14:41
Yeah, he did this the year after he left Doctor Who,
Ansel Burch 14:47
okay, yeah, so I think this was like his, his first attempts at breaking into Holly's
Ansel Burch 14:53
powers.
Speaker 1 14:56
Yeah, because he did Pride and Prejudice and Zombies after this movie. Yeah. And then the crown. I
Ansel Burch 15:03
hated that book. That's a different podcast.
Ansel Burch 15:06
It was quite bad. Yeah,
Speaker 1 15:09
for some reason I thought he might have been in more things since Doctor Who. But I guess that's not the case. Apparently, not. He's still, he's still very good though, yeah. Like,
Ansel Burch 15:23
he's definitely, like, a TV show guy, though. Like, yes, big things have all been TV shows.
Ansel Burch 15:30
Well, now he's making that dragon money. So, yeah, he was,
Ansel Burch 15:33
he did Doctor Who? Big thing, he did the crown. Big thing, now he's in the dragon show. Big Thing. I feel like I don't really remember his movies. I only remember him in, Was he good
Speaker 1 15:44
in last night in Soho? I'm trying to remember last night in Soho.
Ansel Burch 15:48
Yeah, he was the, the creepy boyfriend in the past, right, right? The who owned the club
Speaker 1 15:55
is Matt Smith, the new Ted Danson. Like he's just awesome on TV roles. But every time he tries to do a movie, it's like, oh, yeah, Ted was there. I love Ted dancing for the record, like he he's still great, and he's doing amazing style establish that show man on the inside on Netflix, very good. It looks great. Highly recommend it. Hopefully gets a second season, but you know the good place and cheers, obviously. Oh, I love, love Ted Danson Ansel, let's, let's call up Ted Danson see what he's doing.
Ansel Burch 16:33
Yeah, of all the famous people who are way outside of our league, Ted Danson might be the one who would come on the show. He just seems like he's got that vibe. He loves
Speaker 1 16:43
talking to people. Like, have you ever listened to his podcast? It's great. He just loves meeting new people. That's fine. He has a podcast with Woody Harrelson called where everybody knows your name. Woody is barely on it because he's very busy, so sometimes it's just Ted talking to people. There's an excellent episode where he interviews his wife, Mary Steenburgen. Oh, that's adorable. It was a two parter. It was very nice. They have cast members from cheers pop in sometimes. And of course, they're great. Kelsey Grammer, George White, they get them all in there. They're they're working their way through. I'm waiting for the Rhea Perlman episode. There you go. I'm just picturing someone like from the past asking someone now being like, Oh yeah, Future Boy, who's the president in 2025 Donald Trump, the reality star,
Ansel Burch 17:45
the real estate guy, Art of the Deal, that guy,
Ansel Burch 17:52
yeah, oh man, Omaha
Ansel Burch 17:54
Steaks, but worse, that guy,
Ben Silverio 17:58
Home Alone. Two. Star, I
Speaker 1 18:05
Oh, God, and he's doing us all. Yeah, I'm sure no one wants to talk about this, but what, what is, what is something this week that the tariffs are affecting that you're so disappointed by, other than everything. Guys
Ansel Burch 18:25
gonna say is the
Ansel Burch 18:29
books several major British like, like so Waterstones, which is basically the British version of Barnes and Noble and Blackwell's, which is like British discount books, have both just stopped shipping to the US. They're not accepting new orders. Everybody's pre orders are on hold. So like, if you ordered a book, they haven't canceled them yet, but they're like, holding everything. And I have a bunch of water stones pre orders that I had had for months, and I don't know if I'm gonna get them, because of the sheriffs.
Speaker 1 19:09
A number of independent toy makers have manufacturing in China, so they've just had to cancel their lines. So so many of these action figures are just not going to exist now,
Ansel Burch 19:21
yeah, well, and how many of them are fully made, but will never leave China? Oh,
Ansel Burch 19:27
yeah, that's crazy. Aunt was actually talking to about my husband plays Warhammer, which is a British company that probably produces all of their product in China. Yeah, probably, so I don't know how much those are, and those are already expensive, like, for anyone who plays Warhammer or any of the games plus properties, that's just already expensive. And I can't imagine, like, I think this might, and this is going to have a really negative impact on, like, the. Com, actual competitive acts aspect of those that gaming industry. Yeah, because if American Warhammer players can't get the latest thing because they it's too it's like, cost prohibitive, then how are they going to be able to actually compete in any of these tournaments?
Ansel Burch 20:20
Yeah, a lot of people in the games industry are very concerned because paper is not milled in the United States very much. That's another even if your book is printed in the United States, they have to get the paper from China or India. Actually,
Ansel Burch 20:37
most paper Well, at least in the book industry, most books printed in the US are made with paper from Canada.
Speaker 1 20:43
Oh, okay, well, there you go. Still not good. Yep,
Ansel Burch 20:47
still not good. Also, those four penguins. Oh, yeah,
Ansel Burch 20:52
this poor the sport penguins, 10% tariff
Ansel Burch 20:57
manufacturing is really gonna suffer, yeah, but
Ansel Burch 21:01
I will say, as much as as, like, the industries that I care about are suffering and the, you know, games and toys and all the cool shit that I enjoy, ultimately, it's coffee, Just coffee
Unknown Speaker 21:20
that's that's gonna hit me every
Ansel Burch 21:21
single morning as
Ansel Burch 21:23
as a as a person who owns an aging car too, really, because ans car is also kind of old me and my husband and our old cars. Oh, those are getting so expensive to fix,
Ansel Burch 21:38
I can scooch that around in post,
Speaker 1 21:40
Okay, fair enough host in post, wow.
Ansel Burch 21:48
You know why they're yellow, and then that's all you got.
Ansel Burch 21:51
I know why they're yellow, if
Ansel Burch 21:55
uh, would you like I'm assuming it's for visibility. Yeah,
Ansel Burch 21:57
no, it's because they actually did studies, and yellow is the most easy to see color. No,
Speaker 1 22:02
I was trying to stop you because I was going to say, if you would allow me to selfishly, go first. I've actually decided to talk about school busses.
Ansel Burch 22:18
Start again, start again. I didn't
Ben Silverio 22:25
say anything about the color.
Ansel Burch 22:33
These two excitable white nerds are like, Oh,
Ansel Burch 22:36
I just like color theory.
Ben Silverio 22:40
No, it's okay. I can't believe you
Ansel Burch 22:42
picked school busses. That's brilliant. Isn't
Speaker 1 22:44
that wild? I was like, gonna talk about because everything sounds way too sciencey, and I'm just like, You know what? School busses?
Ansel Burch 22:57
Another good one, though, would have been tracer rounds. So many of them in the opening scene,
Unknown Speaker 23:02
all I can think of purple tracer
Ansel Burch 23:04
rounds. Or are they lasers? I couldn't tell if they were trying to be tracer rounds, or they were trying to be lasers.
Ansel Burch 23:10
Well, I think they were lasers originally. I think
Ansel Burch 23:14
they but they were shooting them out of guns, like they had just normal guns, which still shot purple things, everything had a tracer round.
Ansel Burch 23:21
There's just a lot more phosphorus in the apocalypse. Yeah,
Ansel Burch 23:25
the air quality is terrible.
Speaker 1 23:28
Ansel, the last time we visited this franchise, do you remember what we edutained our audience with?
Ansel Burch 23:37
We definitely had shotguns. That was my and was this the one where we did phone booths or phone books?
Speaker 1 23:51
Oh, as errands, right? I want to say it was phone booths, which probably was your, were you shotgun? I was shotguns. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 24:04
Probably should have checked on that before I started. Sorry, I didn't even think about that going in the pile. Do
Ansel Burch 24:13
you have a list, like you do with the movies of all the different edutainments You've done? Honestly,
Ben Silverio 24:18
we should at this point.
Unknown Speaker 24:19
We don't remember what
Ansel Burch 24:21
I picked for. Caitlyn Leopold,
Ansel Burch 24:27
I also don't remember what you did for stated it away was
Ben Silverio 24:31
Hugh Jackman,
Ansel Burch 24:35
it was that one I was doing, ranting about the horses. Or it might have been, might have been,
Ansel Burch 24:42
oh yes, it was. It was absolutely horses
Ben Silverio 24:48
on brand, yeah, yeah. And it
Ansel Burch 24:52
wasn't too far away from when Stella did a whole episode about saddles, yeah.
Ansel Burch 24:59
Oh. My God, I can. I could. If I had to just rant about something for 30 minutes straight, it would be why any book that features two people riding double is usually wrong. I could rant about that in saddles for just hours.
Speaker 1 25:15
Honestly, where are all the horses while Skynet is taking over? Yeah, asking the real questions here. James Cameron, robot
Ansel Burch 25:25
horses.
Unknown Speaker 25:26
Ooh,
Ansel Burch 25:29
it is. It's phone booths. Aaron did phone booths. What
Ansel Burch 25:32
did you do? Ansel,
Ansel Burch 25:36
I don't think I did one back then,
Speaker 1 25:38
yeah, early in the early seasons, it was just Aaron and I doing them. Okay, yeah,
Ansel Burch 25:42
because I was only ever supposed to be like a voice from the void to correct them when they made mistakes.
Ansel Burch 25:48
Oh, you're not supposed to have your now. They let you have your own opinions and everything.
Ansel Burch 25:53
Yeah. Well, I couldn't shut up, so I had to set up another microphone podcast,
Speaker 1 26:01
because white men don't get to share their opinions enough. So
Ansel Burch 26:04
hardly ever. It's so hard these days,
Speaker 1 26:07
right? God, now that you have a white president, you can do anything.
Ansel Burch 26:14
Finally, some representation. Exactly. That's why I really appreciate them putting Jay Courtney in here. You know, for all of us mediocre white guys, oh,
Speaker 1 26:23
please. You're you're way more extraordinary than Jai Courtney. Oh, well, thank you
Ansel Burch 26:29
from Australia, just
Speaker 1 26:33
means you're not a convict, right? Like, that's what the means.
Ansel Burch 26:36
My ancestors weren't convicts. Maybe that's
Unknown Speaker 26:38
why he has such a punchable face.
Ben Silverio 26:44
But how do you feel about Vegemite?
Ansel Burch 26:47
Vegemite? You know, I haven't tried vegemite, but I do like Marmite.
Unknown Speaker 26:51
It's so
Speaker 1 26:52
gross. I'm a little surprised that Ansel has never had Vegemite. It does
Ansel Burch 26:55
seem like the sort of thing I would have had. Yeah, I haven't run into a lot of Australian shit. I
Ansel Burch 26:59
mean, if you've had Marmite, it's not
Ansel Burch 27:03
overly I mean, yeah, they're functionally identical. They're
Ansel Burch 27:07
they are the the texture is similar enough that any differences in flavor would probably go unnoticed, because they both taste like wet sand,
Ansel Burch 27:23
incredibly bitter and salty wet sand. Thank you very much,
Ansel Burch 27:26
but the texture is that of wet sand. Oh,
Ansel Burch 27:30
man, I legitimately like Marmite. I have a jar of Marmite in my pantry. I think the trick with Marmite, as with many things, is dosage. You got a thin layer of Marmite.
Ben Silverio 27:45
Marmite.
Ansel Burch 27:47
Yeah, you need to do butter and the mermaid,
Ansel Burch 27:50
butter and Marmite and cheese. If you're really getting nice, what kind of butter? Marmite and a good cheddar? Oh, no, that's, that's a treat, not like
Ben Silverio 28:01
a cheese whiz. I
Ansel Burch 28:02
very briefly worked for an Australian company, and once the CEO came in and brought us all Vegemite to try and when he offered me some, I just looked at him and said, I've already done my time, which he did not appreciate.
Ben Silverio 28:19
That is hilarious. That's
Ansel Burch 28:21
why I don't work there anymore. No, it's a different reason. COVID is why I don't work there anymore.
Ansel Burch 28:27
Now, for a little audience participation section, I dare you to figure out what we're doing right now. Go ahead and comment with your timestamp for when you figure out what the heck it is we're doing. I'm
Ansel Burch 28:37
a millennial. I do it this way. Yeah, I can't do the right way.
Speaker 1 28:43
I've seen people do it like this. I mean, I think this is dumb, but,
Ansel Burch 28:49
yeah, I don't my fingers are too you can't do this with nails. Is the thing? Like, it looks weird when you have long fingernails. This becomes not a cute heart and more like a weird so it's
Ben Silverio 29:03
like more like a realistic heart, yeah?
Ansel Burch 29:08
I understand that the concept, but
Ansel Burch 29:13
I like the execution is lacking, yeah, yeah,
Ben Silverio 29:15
like how we're talking about this on a audio
Ansel Burch 29:20
this is definitely going in episode four, and I will just like, I'll have to preface it with just guess, guess what we're doing the
Ansel Burch 29:28
way the youths do it with their first and second fingers. Just hurts me. Reminds me
Ben Silverio 29:33
of like Daniel Reddick, like pincers.
Ansel Burch 29:38
I, I mean, like I was, we just did the Star Trek stuff, live long and prosper.
Speaker 1 29:50
See as someone who was into wrestling before watching Star Trek, this meant that it was Vader time. What what time it's? Vader. Time you are
Ansel Burch 30:01
making a reference Vader,
Speaker 1 30:02
who you may know from an episode of boy. It's world sure, because he plays the dad of the bully, Frankie, sure, I didn't watch that show, whatever. Oh, my God, watch
Ansel Burch 30:18
sailor. I have important feelings about Topanga, but I do not listen.
Speaker 1 30:23
Cory and Topanga were some, some of our greatest lovers of all time, who got it wrong a little bit. But listen, I'm talking about changing from oh yeah, this girl was supposed to go to go to Yale because of this dummy.
Ansel Burch 30:45
Maybe that's why my parents wouldn't let me. My mom was like, you can't watch this show. I
Ansel Burch 30:52
mean, that wouldn't have been until the very end.
Speaker 1 30:54
Well, not very end. They kept going till they were in college, and then
Ansel Burch 30:59
they did the reboot about their kid, yeah, but I heard it existed.
Speaker 1 31:07
I liked it. I thought it was cute. It could have used one more season. But, you know Disney shows and that three seasons, that's
Ansel Burch 31:16
those jerks, whether they're done or not. Yeah, exactly. No. Uh, no pocket Bell.
Speaker 1 31:23
Indeed. I was gonna do the jaws theme, but I was trying to remember what it was, and then I was just like, JAWS. I'm like, No, that's not what it is. No, what is all right?
Unknown Speaker 31:39
Is it the jazz theme? No,
Ben Silverio 31:42
no, John, that's the Terminator theme.
Ansel Burch 31:46
Yeah, that's Terminator.
Ansel Burch 31:49
That was one theme music I learned to play on the violin. What's the jaws theme?
Ansel Burch 31:57
Nice. I mean, it's only two notes. It's only two notes. It was really easy. If you're gonna learn one, that's the one to start with. Can you play it right now, if I
Ansel Burch 32:05
had a violin, no fifth grade, I don't know how old you think I am, but that was a while ago. Been a bit. It's been a minute. It was 1997 you mean,
Speaker 1 32:21
you don't remember how to play Hot cross buns on a recorder either?
Ansel Burch 32:24
No. So more tangents, um, my fifth grade class, we were we were required to take an instrument, and I wanted to take the trumpet. I wanted to learn how to play the trumpet. And I was told by my music teacher in probably 1997 that girls don't play the trumpet, so she made me pick a girls instrument, which we basically told me I could play the violin, the viola or the flute or the clarinet, what? And I chose the violin just because I was like, Ah, fuck it. Or the piano. I think I could have learned like piano, but I chose the violin because I didn't like any of the options. And I hated violin. I never practiced, and I basically just like, fudged my way through the year and then never looked at playing an instrument ever again. And this is just another example of why, like growing up as a girl in the 90s was kind of fucked up, because we got a lot of shit like that, and I probably would have played the crap out of a trumpet.
Ben Silverio 33:38
Hell yeah. But
Ansel Burch 33:39
yeah, I mean, any instrument that you're interested in, actively interested in as a kid, yeah, like,
Ansel Burch 33:45
I feel like my teachers because I wasn't, I was obviously such a neuro, spicy kid, and they didn't know how to deal with that. They they just, there were so many things that I look back and was like, I wonder what would have happened if I hadn't had teachers who like, completely, like, belittled my ideas,
Speaker 1 34:06
right? Man, I had a similar music experience because I wanted to play drums. And, I mean, I could understand why my parents wouldn't want me to play drums, but my teacher, who was a kind of a mean nun. She was just like, here's a recorder. And my parents tried to be like, Oh, hey, look, your cousin Marlon, who's like a musician, they're like, look, he started by playing the recorder. That's how you should start to and I'm like, I don't want to play the recorder. So, like, I remember my mom telling me that, like, after seeing the nun for the music lesson, like, one day, I was just like, so upset that I, like, came home crying. I'm like, This is so hard. And then I dropped, dropped it, you know? And then occasionally I would sing in the choir, but like, I didn't do music like I thought I would. And then eventually, in high school, I got a drum kit. Like, for free, and I'm just like, oh, punk music doesn't need to know how to read music.
Ansel Burch 35:05
Yeah,
Ansel Burch 35:08
fundamentals. Don't know her
Ansel Burch 35:10
school because I didn't want to play instruments, because that experience in fifth grade had been so bad. I was like, No, this is stupid. Now, yep,
Ansel Burch 35:21
oh, that's That's too bad. Yeah, I played clarinet all through middle and high school. Do
Ben Silverio 35:26
you still have clarinet? I
Ansel Burch 35:27
do. I actually just unearthed it just a few days ago. That's exciting. Can I play it? Probably not. I I don't remember any of the fingerings. Give me a few, few days, maybe, maybe I'll
Speaker 1 35:42
get there. But okay, next month, we're gonna check in, and you're gonna play the theme song.
Ansel Burch 35:46
Listen to the episode where Ansel breaks out the clarinet. Now we also had a piano in my house when we were growing up, but hilariously, my dad was taking piano lessons, and he finally broke down and bought a piano so that he could practice at home. And it wasn't like it was this, like a simple electric piano. It wasn't like a fancy piano or anything. He finally bought this piano, and then the place where he took classes closed. He couldn't find another, like, conveniently located one, and so he never took another piano class, and it's sat in my parents house for like, 20 years.
Ansel Burch 36:24
Oh, that's so heartbreaking, longer, probably
Ansel Burch 36:27
30 years at this point, been hanging out. It still works. I think it's not plugged in, but I think if you plugged it in, it would probably
Ansel Burch 36:37
still work. Oh, that's heartbreaking. Did he
Ansel Burch 36:40
still, like a little bit, but it didn't stuck, like he was still pretty early in the whole like, learning about the piano. And it's so funny, my dad is like, so good at certain things, and I think he probably could have been really good at the piano, because he has, like, a real ear for languages and stuff that my mother and I don't possess. So I really feel like he could have become a pretty decent hobby pianist. You can
