[B]

The comedy movie event of the year. Mike and Nick and Nick and Alice. Now streaming only on Hulu and Disney

[C]

plus Time to party.

[A]

That's a great attitude.

[B]

It's a time traveling ass kicking movie event.

[D]

You sound insane.

[B]

Starring Vince Vaughn, James Marsden and Asa Gonzalez.

[D]

I thought you were a clone.

[C]

Well, clones aren't real, dummy.

[E]

And time machines are super grounded in reality.

[B]

Mike and Nick and Nick and Alice. Rated R. Written and directed by Ben David Grabinski. Only on Hulu and Hulu on Disney plus for bundle subscribers.

[E]

Juju is always good with the television and streaming recommendations. You guys won't shut up about Project Hail Mary though. The movie, right? You guys love the movie. I mean, are you interested? Are you interested in this?

[F]

I haven't seen it. I don't know what it's about, but it's based on some sort of source material. Because all my friends would say, oh, the book was great. And all I know is that Ryan Gosling is in it and it looks visually stunning. But I don't know if that's enough to get me to the theater.

[D]

It's a huge hit.

[F]

It is.

[C]

Yeah.

[F]

But I'm gonna tell you what's gonna be an even huger hit. That new Spider Man. Did y' all see that trailer?

[D]

Oh, yeah.

[F]

That new Spider Man.

[D]

Oh, yeah.

[E]

Okay. Was talking about Project Hail Mary though.

[D]

Project Hail Mary, I think tapped into this thing that Ted Lasso did, which is like, man, I didn't know that I needed an uplift. I didn't expect the kind of movie it is. I didn't expect this to be so uplifting and hopeful. And it's coming at a good time where we could use that. And I think that's why people are gravitating to it to the degree they are, which is just a huge global sensation.

[G]

Yeah. The plot is not necessarily like when you say it's like Ted Lasso. It's not like that in terms of the plot, but the way that it's sort of an example of like humanity sort of coming together and this sort of one person helping another and that type of attitude and feel good, that's behind it. I mean, Gosling is essentially acting by himself. He's spectacular in this movie. Like Ryan Gosling is as good as he's ever been in this movie. And there is such a feel good that you're left with whether that's the story or not. It feels like everything the movies are supposed to be. It's a giant blockbuster for a reason.

[F]

Hear me out here. Nobody remembers Peter Parker anymore. So MJ and Ned Lee, they all don't remember him.

[C]

That's what I'm saying.

[F]

But he's watching. Link them all, post on Instagram, having the time of their lives at mit. This doesn't intrigue you at all?

[E]

Give me the music, please. For the Joker of the Weekend from jujugatti.

[C]

That's how it be. I want in on this damn conversation too. I wanna. Before we move on, I just wanna say to the Movie Point or whatever the unexpected shit. I watched the best movie I seen all this year over this weekend. I wasn't expecting much because I had to read the entire thing. Cause. But no other choice, man, that might be the best movie of the last couple years other than Sinners Salute. But man, no other choice. Go see it if you haven't.

[E]

I thought you wanted in on the conversation about Project Hail Mary. Just movies you wanted to talk about.

[C]

Yeah. You had a topic and I didn't want to talk about that at all. Like everyone else.

[F]

But Juju.

[C]

But when I do it. Oh, when I do it.

[E]

No, when they did it, I objected.

[C]

You feel me? Roy? Roy, you know what I mean.

[E]

What's that supposed to mean?

[F]

Hear me out. Juju. He has to go to.

[C]

You said you could say it, Dan. I didn't like that.

[F]

He goes to Bruce Banner and he says, can you help me out? And Bruce Banner says, wait, your name is what? No, not even the Hulk remembers him.

[E]

What happened to my Joker of the Weekend music?

[C]

Yes, sir. Man, we had a couple of jokers the other weekend. I'm sorry, Mike. I put you to sleep. And Tony, y' all wake up. I'm back. We here.

[D]

No, I'm looking at no other Choice. I'm reading no other Choice. A synopsis. I haven't seen it. I want to see it.

[C]

You feel me? It's Cam. Scatterable, man. For saying CTE is not real Joker or the weekend part.

[F]

Hold on. Juju. Would you want Cam Scatter Boo to be any other way that's on Brand?

[C]

Yes. I want him to be another way.

[F]

Oh, man, he's. He's our Gronk. He's a Giants Gronk.

[C]

Yeah. I want him to be a role model for them kids in New York. Neither here nor there. Another joker of the day, Florida Gators basketball coaches. Man, you came pressing that situation. Boogie Flan also, he was trailing instead of cutting them off. And Boogie Flynn's decision to trail instead of cut off set off a chain reaction where everybody had to slide over and get the next man. And that's what happened to Florida in that last second. Jokers of that day. One more joker, another gator is involved. LeBron James picking up his golf ball in front of the Gator this weekend. Man, what in the hell? You are too valuable to be that close to that alligator, sir. That's a mighty big croc over there, and you were too close to it. You're a joker.

[E]

The Gators jokers and chokers, right? Because if you're falling apart in that situation, if you're doing something inexplicable defensively when you're a champion, that's. That's Pussycat Dolls level choking, is it not?

[C]

I was definitely thinking of Pussy Riot.

[F]

These are controversial. We said Josie and the Pussycat's like, yeah, they had some controversy. Like what? When Jabberjaw came and played the drums.

[E]

Do you have any Olympic thoughts based on what we were talking about? Flag football related, we're gonna win, right? We're gonna be the favorite in flag football internationally, correct.

[B]

Oh, yeah.

[D]

Belt to ass on everybody. I mean, I don't know enough about other nations programs. I'm not gonna pretend to, because I imagine there might be something like what the pros found out. This is a whole new way to play the game. And you can catch people by surprise and underestimate you see, Tony, I would

[F]

say belt to ass, too, but then what happens if, like, South Korea shows up with briefcases?

[D]

Briefcase to us. But I thought that the juju. I thought that the broadcast, at least in the early going, had way more juice to it than I expected it to.

[C]

Yeah, for sure. And the players gave way more effort than I thought. Joe Burrow risk all his aces. Crazy. Every single player.

[D]

There was a cool moment early on in that first game where the pros kind of collectively realize, oh, shit, like, we can't just, like, go through the motions here. These guys are kicking our ass.

[G]

They thought they could just like five step Drop it. It's like, no, you got to get wide, dude. You need two quarterbacks on every play, so. So you could just keep throwing it backwards to each other.

[D]

Yeah. They kind of realize, oh, all right, we can get played here. And Hopkins caught a deep ball and you thought, okay, the pros are just gonna sit down.

[G]

Oh, Jesus. They might need their own project. Hail Mary.

[C]

There it is. No.

[F]

Dan was so ready. As soon as Jeremy approached the mic, his hand was hovering. All right, here we go.

[E]

It is funny, though, that people wouldn't realize professional football players wouldn't realize that if I take the power and strength completely out of the game, I'm no longer playing tackle football. Like, it's. It's just something entirely different if everyone out there is as quick as Tyree kill.

[D]

Right. But I would have loved to have seen a healthy Tyreek Hill in this environment. But I think one of the things that stuck out. Look in, In. In the game of football, Saquon's got power, he's got strength, he's got agility. He's got. He doesn't look like the most explosive guy on the field because this dude that weighs half of that is just like bending his body and contorting them in ways and hitting these very small windows with such explosion.

[G]

He didn't have a player over six feet.

[D]

It was just really surprising to see how much quicker the Team USA was than the pros.

[E]

Was it, though? Because Gronk, at this point in his life, probably isn't going to be as quick as small, quick guys. Tyreek Hill honestly is not just an anomaly because he's quick. Tyreek Hill is an anomaly because at that size, you usually can't play football. It's too violent to sport.

[D]

Yeah, but he's, like, very muscular and juju. I was disappointed that Gronk got hurt because it seemed to me like the only shot the pros had was Brady's just going to throw it, you know, eight yards up in the air, and Gronk's just going to stab at it with a paw because no one can bring him down.

[C]

Exactly. For sure. And it brings me to my point about the Olympics moving forward. It was presented by my brother Pete Cor over the weekend. I'm like, wait a second. How about this? During Olympic competitions, no flag, no country representation. You don't know where this brother who just did that triple axle is from. All the judges know if that was the best triple axel they'd seen all day. Judge them off of that. And on the gold medal Stand. Guess what? Surprise. I'm synagogue. So no bias could even come. I love it.

[E]

If you didn't see it. Juju just pantomimed ripping off a bank robbers mask to reveal that the gold medal winner was from Senegal before we get to the polls.

[F]

Or someone from Josie and the Pussycats.

[G]

Did he say synagogue?

[F]

Juju, Senegal.

[E]

I said synagogue in case he said synagogue.

[C]

Synagogue.

[D]

Just looking for the laugh.

[C]

I don't mean. I don't mean Jeremy, but yeah, man.

[E]

Juju has, as ever, some game that he's giving without any cost. This is free game that he is dispensing in the event that you'd like your life improved with some Juju guidance and advice. What do you got for us?

[C]

Yes, sir, man. It was spartan on Thursday when my brother Dave, we all love Dave, man, but he was saying that. How disappointed he was when he was talking about the wnba, cba. My brother wasn't disappointed in the cba. He wasn't disappointed that the owners kind of won. He was disappointed that the women seemed happy. And let that just go to show you out there sometimes, bro, some people just don't want to see you happy, man. They just don't want to see you win. Don't waste your energy and time on those people trying to figure it out. Just put your hands up and say, you know what? This is the world I live in. Don't spend energy trying to figure out why people don't like you, man. Just let them don't like you and move on.

[E]

Are you accusing David Sampson of by definition hating? One on one

[C]

literally is in the handbook. I'm not going to put my brother name next to it, but if the shoe fits. Who we some nice Nikes.

[E]

The polls at Lebatard show. What do we have today Juju to

[C]

update when it comes to fighting, does every 80 year old man still think that he is 22? 91% of the audience says yes, they do. Damn. Do you know what a boilermaker is? 61 of the audience says no, they don't. Also real quick, happy birthday to the Shatner. 95 years old and still kicking. Happy birthday to him. I don't care. Good luck. Are you embarrassed? Are you embarrassed when you say the score of the game was.

[F]

How did you spell it? How did you spell that?

[C]

E A H no E H H Y A H U U Y E A M E H. Perfect.

[E]

Nailed it. That's exactly how Chris said it.

[C]

85 of the audience says yes. And also congratulations to coach Jerry McNamara, new coach for Syracuse next year. Cayenne, Anthony, get ready to play. 48 and a half minutes and last poll. Should we replace the Hakeem Nicks laugh with the overlay of Jeremy, Tashay and Kawhi? Holy smokes. Do y' all want the Twitter results or do y' all want the IG results?

[F]

Different. Different results.

[G]

After you say. After you say that.

[C]

I kind of want both of them. Ooh. 52% of the audience says yes on IG. Let's replace that laugh. And on Twitter, they're not going to want it replaced.48 of the audience says no. They do not want it. 52 says yes.

[E]

Wait, that's the same. Wait a minute.

[C]

Hooked on Phonics.

[D]

Anyway.

[C]

Wow.

[E]

Juju. That makes no sense.

[G]

It was the reverse. He was saying it was the reverse.

[E]

It makes no sense.

[C]

Really. No sense.

[E]

It's terrible math.

[C]

Look, man, 48% of the audience says yes, and 52% of the audience says no. And that's the Twitter polls.

[D]

So I'm trying to follow, but I think if you take the average, it's a 50. 50 split.

[C]

It's never happened before.

[F]

You gotta wait.

[C]

It is.

[F]

How many votes are coming in on Twitter versus how many on Instagram? Math.

[D]

And how many of those people on Twitter have called you a soy boy on Twitter?

[E]

A lot of them on Twitter.

[F]

I'm guessing something a lot more. Maybe they're Senegal Daily.
