Human Nonsense Ted Danson and Paul Shear with Swifty Dads. All this and more on today's how did this get Made? Last Looks hit the theme. Talking movies with Paul, Jude and J. Mansukas. People love her. McDlt, the universe with suits and Sheeran Tune and Jessica Sinclair. She's probably there. Well, how did this get made? Nobody knows. What's up jerks? Got the shirt balcony up front, bro. This is the last, Last look with light revisions, a stellar skateboard asking what's its mission? Last looks, Last Looks. Come and get your last looks. Broad talking newbies. But I hear Paul has a new book. Hello all you hot cocoa lovers out there who are horny for Santa. I'm your host, Hugh Mann. I mean, Paul Scheer. And welcome to how did this Get Made? Last Looks, where you, the listener, get to voice your issues on My Secret Santa, a movie that Discord user Dove thinks should have had the tagline it's not you, it's me. Oh, I love that. That's really Good. Why isn't that in the movie? That's like Easy Pickens. That's great. I mean, by the way, that should have been the tagline of the movie. Well, I guess it would be a confusing tagline because you didn't know. But here's the thing. It's great. Dove. You killed it. You killed it with that tagline. Uh, now also, I'm having a hard time right here because Dove is a character in a book that I just read Tomorrow. Tomorrow and Tomorrow, which is a great book. Check it out. It's. It's beautiful. It's a. It's a story about platonic friendship. It's also a story about just partnership and video games. And it was one of my favorite reads in a long time, and I cried multiple times. I haven't cried reading a book in a very long time. It's great. Check it out. And again, you don't need, like, a PSA from me to check out a book, because I believe this book was a hugely successful book of last year. Like, when I opened up the paperback. There's just pages of great accolades that this book has achieved. So anyway, I love that book. You should check it out. Also, I don't know if you've heard of it, but Catcher in the Rye, pretty cool book. Yeah. You like it? You know, I read it. I'm, like, kind of on the inside. Yeah. I don't need to give you any more book recommendations, but I'm reading Martyr now, which is also a plus. I'm reading good books. You know, I hear. Here's my theory. You always say, I want to read more books in the new year. Or maybe you don't. I do. And if I can get, like, the amount of books that I want to read done early, then I won't let myself down. At the end of the year when I found that I didn't read as many books as I wanted. But I gave myself a goal this year. Five books. I normally do more than that, but five books, I can. I can achieve that. Anyway, enough about me and my reading. Oh, God, she loves to talk about his reading. Anyway, a big shout out to Latex Drool for that opening theme song. Unfortunately, the Screaming Kittens were too busy to make a song for us. Yeah, apparently the lead singer's in love. And you know what? Honestly, I just don't think that she ever really cared about the band anyway. I mean, she had that kid and just quite quit the band. I mean, they would never achieve mainstream success with that kind of lackadaisical. Attitude. So anyway, latex drool. You are way better than screaming kittens ever were. We appreciate you stepping in. Remember, if you have an alt movie tagline or you have a song for this show, it's so easy to get us the information we need. Alt movie taglines, corrections and omissions. That all happens on the Discord. Discord GG hdtgm. And if you're submitting a song, just go to our website, hdtgm.com and there's a little button. It says submit a song. You click on that, you upload the song. Keep it short, keep it nice. 15 to 20 seconds is best. And by the way, manageable. Coming up on today's show, we got some really fun stuff to do. Yes, we're gonna get to your corrections and omissions on My Secret Santa. I actually saw that the lead actress of My Secret Santa was commenting on on one of our posts, which always gives me a little bit of a nervous energy. But she seems that she's really into it and she wanted to explain some of the choices made in Secret Santa. But I would recommend this. She seems like a super cool person. And if you go to her page, she's got some of the makeup and costume tests for the film, and there's a image of her in her Santa costume dancing around, which just is disturbing and great, and I love it. So check her out. I'm not gonna tell you her name because I don't remember it off the top of my head, but you can figure it out. You could do the math. Also, guess who's coming on the show today? Ted Danson. Yeah, you know Ted Danson from Cheers, from the Good Place, from the man on the inside. Well, anyway, Jason went on Ted's podcast and we took a little portion of that and we're gonna put it on this podcast. So if you've never listened to Ted's show, you can get a little taste of it. Maybe you wanna follow it up later. But more importantly, if you love Jason, you're going to hear the two of them talk about the good place, the man on the inside, and so much more. Plus, we'll also reveal the movie for next week's episode. Now, I got a big announcement, a personal announcement. Back in 2023, I was obsessed with these dads who were hanging out in the parking lot at Taylor Swift concerts. They were in their cargo shorts, they were checking their phone. They were just kind of pacing, and they were all waiting for their daughters to get out of the show. So I had this idea, I want to go talk to these dads. I thought it was going to be like this funny thing, like these dads just miserable, you know, at this concert. Not really loving, you know, Taylor Swift or anything about it, but just having to be there. And I went down to Sofi and within the first 15 minutes, I realized, oh, I have this all wrong. And I captured something that I think is really interesting. I went there for about two or three nights, talked to a bunch of different people. We were gonna make this into a feature film. Not this short, but this was a kind of this magical thing. Magical. It was this thing that just. I happened on because I wanted to do a little funny bit. But then I found something a little bit deeper. We were actually going to blow it up into a bigger movie that had a much bigger scope. And that all fell apart. But I realized I never released the original mini doc, the mini dock that actually got us financing for this feature. So I wanted to put it up and I did. And your response to it has been amazing. Thank you so much for watching it. Thank you for commenting on it. If you've not watched it, you can watch it on my website, Paulshear.com or on my YouTub or on the dark web YouTube. It's very easy. Just type in Paul Scheer talks to Taylor Swift dads. And if you liked it, share. Was really fun. Just fun to just go out with a camera and shoot stuff and just find something. So, yeah. So thank you. Hope you check it out. You don't have to be a Swifty fan. That's the other thing. You don't have to be a Swifty fan. People are like, I don't like Taylor Swift, first of all. Let's take that out of the equation. This is about parents and children and this is about concert going. It covers a lot of different stuff. So if you have been a child, if you are a parent, if you've ever been to a concert, I think it will resonate with you. So. And also I will say that the thing that Taylor Swift did with this concert, it just blew my mind. I never experienced anything else like this at a concert. So anyway, check out that little mini doc. It's only like 15 minutes you watch on your phone. It's fine. I'm not mad at it. I'm not over here like Christopher Nolan or something. So, yeah, watch it any which way you want. And finally, you could check out dinosaur improv back at Largo on January 24th. Okay, January 24th, we're back at Largo and Jason and I will be together on the Scam goddess podcast on January 13th. Woo. A lot of plugs there. A lot of plugs, but all good. Interesting plugs. We're giving you a lot of free content is what we're saying. Anyway, that's all the plugs. Let's get into it. Last week we talked at length about My Secret Santa. We had questions, and we might have even missed a few things. Here's your chance to set us straight. Fact check us, if you will. It is now time for corrections and omissions. It's time for corrections and omissions. We got a couple things wrong, but we're gonna fix that right now. That's why we're singing this song. We're gonna take a couple phone calls. Maybe you know something we don't. Perhaps you can change our opinion, but it's likely that you won't. Corrections and omission.
