FC012 - Tom Jones
[music] Hello, and welcome to Flashcast Episode 12. Prepare yourself for Galasses, Harm Carter, Exhaustion, Tom Jones, and New Promos. [music] Deep in an underground labyrinth is a fantastic adventure which costs billions of dollars, but time tunnel. But what does it cost? A man to face the incredible dangers of the past, or the unknown secrets of the future. [music] Titanic. That is impossible, the ship is unthinkable. This ship is dead and so does everyone on board unless you give immediate orders to lower the lifeboats. [snoring] Freedom! Accelerate power! [screaming] Wherever he and Douglas are now, they start again. But where? [screaming] We couldn't begin to guess. But time tunnel. Hello, and welcome to Flashcast Episode 12. Tonight, we have myself, Opopon X, Talkerator, Jessica May, Hello, Noiser Sizer. Yep, yep, yep. Actually, that was Noiser Rizer. Sorry. Noiser Rizer. And J.R.D. Oh, hello, sorry. No, you didn't say words. Oh, he's a word spewer. Yes, if you can't-- That was so smooth. We're keeping that. If you can't tell both by my slow reactions and my poor writing on the intro, I'm extremely tired, which is why there's no harm-carter community episode two up just yet. Rather than have him attacked by hallucinatory monkeys, I just figured, let's give it a day, let's do it right. Yeah. Yeah, we're having lots go on around here. So lots. Yeah, in R.L. Opopon X is getting glasses. She found out today. And my honest reaction was, cool, because that means we could accessorize her and fantastic glasses, which indeed we went to the optometrist and selected frames tonight. I wonder if it'll make any difference in your reading. Are you going to be disappointed if it doesn't? No, I'm just wondering if it'll increase accuracy. I don't know, maybe. I don't know, I think she's pretty accurate. What are you talking about with her accuracy? I got the stigmatism. Yeah, she's got the football eye. That's how they described it. That's what he said. She said. Oh, well, pardon me. Yes. And lots of other things. But oh, friend of the show, friend of the site, Ray, he will be coming for the weekend. Coming for a visit? Yes, we love to host people and feed them delicious food and give them a little dose of baby fun. We don't generally get out too much, but we have lots of fun. There's an awkward phase in raising children where they kind of act as meaty little anchors. And you can't really go anywhere. Yeah, and you can't really do anything for any particular length of time. And then if one doesn't nap, then he's tormented for however long you're out. And it messes them up for several days afterwards because you've screwed with their schedule. So fortunately, we have friends who are dig little people and are patient with that and want to come hang out with us. So we're very excited to have them along. So there was a Godzilla movie schedule to be released in 2012, did you know that? Wait, it was? Well, do you not? No, I couldn't understand why it wouldn't be. But are you saying it has been canceled? No, it hasn't officially been canceled yet, but I was mentioning it to Barry/BMJ2K today on the Twitter, saying I think for the first time, maybe since like the late 40s, it may be too soon for a Godzilla film. We'll see. Isn't that sort of odd to think of Godzilla's rising up out of like the nuclear situation with Hiroshima and bombing in World War II? Could you ever foresee some sort of, I don't know, King Kong analog rising up out of the World Trade Center bombing or while attacks? Their imaginations aren't as-- oh. Well, King Kong was commenting on a different sort of thing, too, right? Yeah, King Kong was commenting on wealth and Hollywood and access and what drives people to go too far and whatever. But at the same time, I suppose a horror inflicted on a nation. It's tough to think of any movie we would make in reaction that wasn't directly related. Maybe we haven't, you know, separated in that way. Well, I guess it also raises the larger question of pulp, right? Like, sometimes there's-- sometimes pulp deals with the moral questions of the day. But a lot of times they're just-- well, not just, but it's reflecting what's going on. So it's not so much considering itself or considering what's going on. It's just displaying what it sees. Like the morality, kind of weirdness between the '60s and the '80s. And what are your children doing? It wasn't like a bunch of Christian groups got together and we're like, you know what? We'll teach these kids a lesson. They'll be more moral by showing them slasher films. It was just sort of the natural result of that period's turmoil. Yeah. And different types of reactions based on people's culture, too. Poor Japan. Poor Japan. Oh, gosh, Japan. Anyway, we don't want this to be a bummer fest, I'm just-- Yeah, thanks for that. I just bummed. I'm bummed now. Up front, I also wanted to give a big thank you once again to Jim from relicradio.com. Thank you, Jim. Thank you, Jim. His work with the Wiki is fantastic, was fantastic. I really appreciate the quickness with which he got that up. And I really appreciate those people, three-day fish-- Gigantor. Gigantor, El Gigantor. And even I saw a BMJ 2K sign up. Although I don't know if he's made any edits. That's fine. Man, that's so great. Thank you so much for doing that, everybody. So we'll keep at that. And hopefully you guys can pitch in a little-- I remember, like, the first edit. I remember you declared it-- you just-- you started reading it aloud. Something about your character that somebody updated. And you were just, like, beaming from ear to ear. It was like you're smiling. So fantastic. It was very awesome. This stuff of your brain is out there, and people are playing with it. They're playing with this stuff from your brain. My brain stuffs. Mm-hmm. Well, I thought that was pretty good. Absolutely. Yeah, he just doesn't look very impressed. Mail time. So we got a nice iTunes comment. Good. That's preferable over bad ones. Five star rating from NCGest, who, you know, we appreciate the download, but it's obviously Jeff of Island and Wood. Yes, from BullisonThings. BullisonThings.com. Fantastic folks. Yes. With new teeth, even better than before. Excellent and podcaster-y. Listening to Flashpulp takes me back to the days of my childhood. When I used to huddle in my bed at night, coverage drawn over my head, listening to AM broadcasts of Dr. Demento and various radio dramas from Distant Cities. Cool. True Theatre of the Mind, download and enjoy. Oh, that's great. That's so great. That must have taken him a minute to-- Yeah, definitely appreciate that. That was really thoughtful. Thanks, Jeff. Fantastic, as always, Jeff. I wish he would-- well, no, that was really good of him, too, but I like it when we got audio comments from him, because his voice is so nice. He's always got some sort of interesting angle on things. Agreed. Like about rhubarb. Oh, how could it go on? I know. Oh, that pie was delicious. If anybody saw Jessica May tweeted a picture of a pie she made, and it was delicious, strawberry apple, holla. Oh, we didn't explain. Off the top, the reason we used the time tunnel intro. Because this is Sunday. Just everyone pretend this is Sunday. Ingrid, you're sitting down, you're having your Sunday breakfast. Yes. Everything's calm, and everybody relax. It's warm, you can feel the sun on your skin. You know, it's very hard. It's very hard to paint a nice relaxing picture. Your aging dog is staring at you and whining. Age-id dog. Do you want ancient dog? No, he'll stop. Does he have something to say? Maybe he's trying to communicate with us. Maybe he has some sort of essential nugget about pulp that we used. He's saying, it's not Sunday, you're crazy. Yeah, fair enough. All right, let's see if he's done by the time this is done. All right, Gerody. I've got a question for you. It's been bugging me for a while, but I've been purposely not asking it. Throughout your flashpulps, slowly characters have been developing. And once you started the flash casts, you hinted to Wilkoffin. And eventually, we got Wilkoffin, and Wilkoffin was great. Do you have any more characters that you're hiding in the woodworks? Are there some more surprises? Ready to come? Do you guys are all aware of them, but we aren't yet? Yeah, that's my question. I want to see my Big E, my other Big E's for another day. Have a good one, guys. See you tomorrow. Indeed. Thanks, friend of the site, Ray. Yeah, that's a really great question. And I feel sort of like a jerk, like I've never even asked you that. Your dog's still throwing me off. Well, no, he's just licking. But I keep giving him the eye. I'm not sure, yeah. No, no, he's like the mascot. So yeah, the mascot of Sora. There are definitely either settings or characters that I have developed that have not fully fleshed out and appeared. Can I mention one? I don't want to give anything away. But just a little bit, please. After a while. Well, yeah, go for it. I mean, this is sort of the purpose of the show. We can give it a little teaser. Like the cool vamps. Yeah, see, the problem with-- I created this universe in which it's essentially vampires who have mutated-- well, not mutated, but polluted the landscape so they can head outside during the day. And one, I'm not entirely sure that's an original idea because I'm really not up to date on what all is existing in the vampire world at the moment, which is a very saturated place. So there's a lot of room for duplication, which I don't want to stumble onto. And secondarily, it's a really saturated market. Like, I don't know if I want to do a vampire story in any way. And that's not your only vampire story. No, well, the other vampire story, which would be a novel, is very much about anti-vamp. Like, it's the solution to this current vampire craze. And if you only had more time. Yeah, if I had more time. The other problem is that I am kind of getting into the situation where the universe fits together very nicely and adding anything else takes more consideration and might put things that will act. Because there's still so much to each character that you already have. There's a lot to tell. That, you know, adding more would probably make it kind of like you're using. Difficult. Because, you know, you have to figure out all the-- and partly the wiki's there to keep you straight. But trying to think of the universe and all of its parts and how it's working. Yeah. Something I'd definitely be interested in getting some feedback on, and this is something I was going to say for my background plot section, especially with the last Harm Carter I did, Community Part 1. I tried not to make it too obvious, but I did do a bit of recapping at the start of the story. And I wonder how people feel about the balance that I strike there. Well, it's been a long time since you've had a Harm Carter episode out. And he's kind of new in the first place anyway. So I think that the balance you had between new stuff happening and recapping what has already happened was-- I mean, now's the time to do it because you're doing a three-parter. So you have sort of the beginning, middle, and end. And you can use the beginning as a bit of a recap. But I think it was pulled off well on this one. Hey, Flashgats. J.R.D. in response to your emphasis on question. I think we have to start when I was about 9 or 10 years old. It was the first time I'd watched Titanic. My mother had sat me down and said, you know, I had to see this movie. Spoiler alert, the Titanic sinks. Oh, you've ruined it for me. And there's a scene where they show all those who froze/grounded death. And one of them was an infant. I remember when I saw that I was just like, oh my god. Baby stomps? Yeah, at the time, you know, 9 or 10. It seemed impossible that, you know, an infant could die. And since then, I've been kind of sensitive to that being introduced in movies or literature. However, as tragic as that may be, it has its place in literature or pull, just like a bunny's cussing. I mean, it's the fact, it is in fact the magnitude of the tragedy that can set such an absolute mood. You know, whatever your culture and infant will represent purity or hope or both. So I mean, you know, I think, Charity, you're very good at avoiding tasteless, tastelessness in your stories, you know, for example. Ruby departed. Here comes a bleep. Part of the reason I really enjoy your stories is-- I'm sorry, Eric. Or what got me hooked anyway was Ruby departed was like a breath of pressure at me. You can't imagine, or maybe you can, how much zombie literature out there is just a girl turning while giving a bleep job and then biting the dude the bleep off. Yeah, just an example. I mean, you're going to avoid the tasteless. And, you know, that's something you need. If you're going to introduce something as heavy as a dead baby. So I guess to wrap things up, you know, I don't-- I don't want-- I don't think it should be banned on that basis because then, you know, where does the banning stop? Wherever I say it stops. Longage for stops, and some profanity. But I hope that answers your question. Always listening. I don't know. Can't we keep the swearing? I know this is not actually talking about what he was saying about. But can't we keep the swearing? I like the swearing in Flashcast. We swear in Flashcast. Well, there could be, and I don't want to bleep it. It all goes into the same feed, and it needs to be leaped. Yeah. OK. OK. I agree. And I-- OK, well, first off, thanks a lot for the comment. Yes, thank you. Thank you so much. That was three-day fish, in case that was-- I think you mentioned it at the end, sorry, I'm so tired. Can I just mention something about three-day fish? The little Twitter icon is a dead fish. And I think that's great because it's a three-day old fish. Very nice. Yep. OK, anyway, go ahead. Talk amongst yourselves. I'm done here. Well, I think he has a good point. I think it's a matter of striking a balance with the use of dead babies and maybe avoiding the overuse of dead babies. Yes, and not just merely for dead babies' sake. Yeah. And that, yeah, they-- I won't be splattering the stories full of flail and babies. Yeah, but it does happen. OK, it really doesn't, but the occasional singular dead baby, I try to avoid just putting them by the dozens for the wood shipper. Yeah, I think everyone really does, or most people. You would be, as he points out, if you go to the internet, you would be surprised. Oh, gosh. So I do want to say-- Be me through wood shippers? Big thank you to-- The internet's a horrible place. For noting that I do try to avoid excessively gruesome scenes, I think that just writing a plain scene like that is in the same way that you can be excessive with cussing and just naked cussing and everyone cussing back and forth all the time. I think a good f-bomb can really suit a scene. But to have constant gore or constant cussing or constant anything, it's like if you watch any film with constant nudity, you kind of lose focus of what that film's about. And it has nothing to do with the plot or anything. You're just like, man, look at all these naked people all the time. I think it's probably a lot harder to write. I mean, I don't know, because I don't write. But I would think it would be harder to write something that doesn't have a lot of gore and stuff like that, and have it still be the same level of scary. Yeah, it can still be a zombie story. Yeah, it's still a horror. A conversation. It must be harder, because you have to find a way to present that terror, but not just be like-- Keep it horrifying. And then his head fell off, you know? It's not. Well, I've got-- It's gore stories. You have to be more eloquent, and there has to be more suspense and build up. I think it's better that way. I think gore is for amateurs, frankly. Gores for amateurs. I should have that on a shirt. No, I agree. I think that I've taken a lot of the joy I find in writing these episodes lately is in trying to find the wording or the correlating factors I can bring together that are just not even necessarily related to the creepiness, but that's still bringing anxiety. And that was what that picture I posted on the blog the other day. It was an axe and a shovel and some beer bottles and a thing. And it just kind of looked like they were all scattered around. And a lady shoe. Yeah, but connected together. Next year, yeah. And you were looking for that shoe this morning. I know. I was like, wait a minute. That's right. I saw my shoe on Twitter. I think it's still in the garage. Did you find it? No, I actually brought it inside, because I'm going to wear this. They're nice shoes. The first time I took that picture, I brought it inside, but I actually had to go back outside. So I wasn't happy with the picture. And then you're like, screw the shoes. I was going to make a comment on-- She'll see it on Twitter. She'll know where it is. Yeah. I was going to make a comment on Facebook about it. And I sort of checked it with JRD first, because, you know, it's his picture, and I don't want to put a comment on something that he's going to be like, what the f are you doing? But he actually-- Because he's always doing that. He doesn't really. No, no, really. He actually denied me, though, because he thought I was a little bit too intense. Do you remember what the comment was? Yes, I do. And it was too intense. I had said something along the lines of that's what happened to his last wife. Oh, geez. But then I followed it up with, no, really. She ran away with a French lumberjack. He should have seen the signs. It was very sad. That's great. Love the beer on there. Yeah, and the axe. Yeah, I wouldn't have denied her. That's awesome. I don't know. Could have been taken the wrong way. It was just the context of the rest of the comments and stuff. Agreed, agreed, whatever. Good dad. So I apologize for moving this along so quickly, but let's gun it right into background plots, because we've got dogs whining. Back through floor. I did have something I wanted to talk about. I actually have to confess that I don't generally listen to the flash cast, because I hate hearing myself talk. So once they recorded, I'm like, all right, that was great. And then I don't listen to them until much, much later when I can do it not feel embarrassed. I actually listened to one through five yesterday. So I actually just came up with it. And what do you think of the show? Do you like my little show here? Yeah, actually, you know what? There's something I wanted to correct, because I don't know if you recall in the first episode, there was some debate. I love how she's still on this. She's like, I gotta fix it. There was some debate as to the origins of Tom Jones. It's not unusual to be confused to both his nationalities. Was Tom Jones the twice on the pipe guy? That is dirty. I don't know what you're saying. I'm sorry. It's like one knock on the ceiling, twice on the pipe if the answer is no. See, I'm trying my name here. That's like that Spencer Tracy movie, where he was-- Edison made her to marry him. But there's a song. He was Thomas Addison. There's a song. I don't know about the song. But anyway, Tom Jones is Welsh, OK? That's what I'm trying to get at. He's a Welsh man. That makes him close to British. But if I were to call him an Englishman, I don't know if he would like that or not. When he listens, he's going to be really upset with you. I know. He's going to write a song about it. He's going to be like, I hope so. This is so unusual. I think he's been nated, actually. I love it if Tom Jones was going to sound like me. I don't listen to Tom Jones, but I think it would be great. Are you saying he doesn't write his own songs? I don't know if he works. I wouldn't write a whole note for you. He would sing one of his oldie baguetties. That's even better. But anyway, I think he's actually been nated. Did you know that? But see now, you're going to be wrong in an episode 20-- No, because I saw it in a wiki. He was bothering me. Tom Jones isn't Welsh, but-- He was Sir Tom Jones. That's what leads me to believe. I remember the day that happened, actually. There, see? CJ RD's old. Do you want to hear? Do you want to hear? He took the battlefield. He was bedecked in bedazzled clothing. Siegfried and Roy, those were his opposition for the day. They were mounted on Tigerback, as usual. Fortunately, his panty cavalcade was too much for them. And-- Not the panty cavalcade. Under the weight of the panties, the cats ate Siegfried. That's what'll happen. That's what happened the last time, yeah, to Siegfried. Anyway, I've been watching-- no, not watching. Listening to Flashcast. Yeah, I heard. Yes. And you like the show. It's a pretty good show, I think. And I noticed-- I heard about Tom Jones. Well, yes, that's why I need to correct myself. And I realized that this started off in the backroom plots section, this rant of mine-- this tirade, if you will. Wow. And what I was trying to get at other than Tom Jones was that in episode 5, a friend of the side, Gigantor, was asking us which cereal we thought would make the best video or what-- he was talking about some of them would be converted to video well, and had we thought of that. And I mean, I joked around about Lego stop motion, and we weren't very serious. I said that I thought Joe Monk would make a very good comic. He would make a good cartoon cartoon. That would be fun too, but I'm not that good at sculpting. Anyway, but what I want to ask you, J-O-D, is if we were to make one into, say, a movie, like a "For Realsies" movie, not like "Clamation" or a cartoon. Or Lego stop animation. Especially not like a stop animation. If we were to do that, which would it be? And who do you think would star in it? Who would you want to star in it? Yeah. No, what kind of movie-- are you asking me which do I think would be best converted to film? Like, which would make the best film? Or are you asking me which would I want to see as a film? Yeah, because I've been thinking about a game of thrones and stuff, and how, at first, I was like, oh, they're making a show of that. I don't know, I don't want them to ruin it. But, I mean, I'm so excited about it, and I want to see the HBO, so. Yeah. The one that I would want to see the most and the one that would probably not make the best of the films would be actually Blackhall. Yeah, I thought you'd say that. And who do you think would star? Who would star as Blackhall? Oh, oh my goodness, no. Oh my goodness, no. Clint Eastwood. He's too old. No, no, Blackhall is nothing like Eastwood, though. He'd be more-- Chuck Norris. He's not-- None of these folks are Scottish, enough, frankly. They're not from that weird Scottish English border area. That's the kind of-- Well, say we could put on an accent, OK? They're actors. If you were to drag Colin Firth, if you were to drag Colin Firth through the seediest bars for like three weeks until he was just full of stink and beat him nightly so that his face was bruised and just-- Not to Colin Firth. Not to Colin Firth. Mr. Darcy. Not the king. If you were to toughen Colin Firth up, I could see him. [LAUGHING] No, that's bad. What was that? I stuttered. Not the king. Oh. Can you keep that? That's fine, yeah. Yeah, if he was absolutely beaten. Or you know what's a pretty unfair call? What's that for? His name's Sean Bean, is that correct? That's the guy that plays at art. Yeah. Steelman. You know what? I could see him as black call, actually. That's-- That's pidges. Yeah, right. The one that I think would probably make the best film, and this will be more once the plot's developed, is actually probably coffin. I would love, love, love, love. I remember the first time I read a wool coffin story. I was just like, oh my god. It was like, I hadn't ever read anything like before. It was so exciting. I could see coffin being like one of those shows that comes on after CSI. I see it so vividly in my mind, you know, him and-- Well, here's-- Benny, Crawley. Here's this-- Oh, yeah, yeah. Sandra. Sandra. Did she be named Celia? She did. Very good song. So let's cover this stuff. I don't know. It's because it was mentioned in Flashcast episode. I can't even remember what episode it was. I think it was number five or something. It was when I was probably teasing the show before it was happening. Why? Why is it sandy and not silvia? Silvia was a little too formal in a sense. And Sandra has a nice-- I don't like Sylvia to Sylvie, but I like Sandra to Sandy. There's a little more warmth there. Yeah. And it just-- We're sorry to all the silvia over there. Yeah. I'm sure you're a great Sylvie. I just-- I'm sure you like silverfish. No, why is that what makes you think? Silvia, silverfish. Silvia, silverfish. I don't know. Silvia. [LAUGHTER] Whoops. Is that looking inside of this like-- oh, yeah? Let's go, Dad. Yeah? Is that right? What if I line again? Right? Yeah. Just a little bit. What are you going to do? Are you going to murder me? You were like telling John love it there for him. [LAUGHTER] Yeah, that's the ticket. How come this thing guy? OK, you go. Keep going. Uh, that's what we were talking about. Oh, but that does bring up an interesting point. Walking-- what you were saying about how you could see it as a show that plays after CSI, I really worry-- the fine line you walk and walk in doing pulp is that there's a difference between when I feel I nail it and ending up in the realm of sort of the ghost whisperer. Yeah, I was just about to say-- That's exactly what I was thinking, too. You wouldn't be one of those charmed shows or something like that that's like-- Which is fine for people who like that, but it's just not what you're going for. Yeah. Yeah, but it's a little less blower. Yeah, you're not going for the supernatural lad-da whatever, you're going for the horror. Like the candy-- not the candy coated, but the gritty, realistic, multi-faceted-- not to bring up Lance Henrikson again, but millennium. I don't-- I wouldn't put millennium on the same level as I would put a show like the ghost whisperer or something like that. You know what I mean? I do try to aim for realism. As I mentioned on the blog the other day, the more magical the episode, the more I try to ground it in reality and maybe make it a little more stinky and dingy, because I feel that sounds it. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway. So pretty ladies detecting crime and stuff. You know what it actually reminds me of now? Now that I think about it in the whole urban shaman thing going for Wilcofen, it reminds me a lot of the Charles Delint books that my brother used to read a while back. And they were-- some of them were set in the city that we lived into, but it was kind of fantasy mixed with reality, but done in a really kind of cool way. For those who don't know, Charles Delint is a Canadian author who works out of the Ottawa area. He deals in mostly magical realism, which I do think that-- Also, great yard sales. Nice guy. I do-- I am inspired by a lot of magical realism stuff, especially out of South America. 100 years of solitude is definitely a big influence on my work. But at the same time, trying to achieve that kind of thing in the flash pop world, something that touching is not necessarily going to happen, unfortunately. But I do what I can. Not to totally get sidetracked here, but 100 years of solitude. I have been thinking about that book a lot since we were talking about that heavier bar dem, jabbier bar dem. Yep, that guy. I think he would be great if they were to make a movie of that for one of the Aurelianos. Yeah, for sure. Good book. OK, so I did have a quick question, and I realized we're a little bit into the leads here. But I would be interested in hearing feedback from people on how they feel about the way the shows are paced and how much backstory I give per episode. And about chronology. Do you prefer stories that are one-shots or three-parters? Do you prefer more ruby where everything is really interconnected? And there's not really a moment in ruby where you don't really know what's going on. Like, everything happens directly after everything else. Or do you prefer something like Mulligan where his life is kind of jumping around and we're just entering these little scenes. And there is a certain amount of chronology with things like Billy Winnipeg. But sometimes there's a bit of guesswork as to what order things go in. And it doesn't really necessarily matter what story order you read them, hopefully. Anyway, if anybody has any thoughts on that, you can email me at skinner@skinner.com. I'd definitely be interested in hearing it. Or leave a voicemail because we love those, too. The number will be at the end of the show. I'm sorry that I do not have it immediately on tap. So let's move into audiotacity of hope. The audiot-- oh, an accident of hope. I really enjoyed our latest ad. Yeah, that one was really good. Who was that for? The ladies' pin dragon. Yeah, the ladies' pin dragon. Yes. We were talking about how he'd pronounce that. I've been really enjoying that. Pendragon. What? Yeah, I know. I totally threw a monkey work in there. If they're actually going for historical accuracy, I believe that Uther, it's Uther, Pendragon. Really? I could be wrong. I'm sure there's some English guy just screaming. Because when you used to pronounce it, you would not say that. No, I did not. Because I don't prefer that pronunciation. I do prefer pendragon. Which is what I corrected. The lovely opponent. Yeah, because I had said pendragon. Pendragon? Pendragon. That sounds pretty epic. Pendragon. I don't know. Uther, Pendragon. Pendragon. Pendragon. It's interesting to see different ads on what people have done. And it sounded so unlike me. Funny. Oh, yeah. I want to listen. It was crisp. Yeah. Well, I don't think you should nay-say or other ads. I don't like it. No, no, no. For real sales. We liked this. I guess we haven't had a whole lot too, so we've had a wide spectrum of different sort of things. Yeah. Gentlemen speakers. And this one was kind of a little more funny and it was a lot of you talking. I enjoyed Nutty Bytes promo I thought that was a good one too. Yeah, sure. Absolutely. They've all been really, really, really good. That's not the first Nutty Bytes promo we've had though, right? We've had them before.
