Autumn at Apple Hill (Hallmark Channel - 2024)

[00:00:00] [SPEAKER_02]: Hi, I'm Brandon. I love Hallmark Auto Movies. I'm Brian. I like Hallmark Auto Movies. I'm Dan and I hate Hallmark Auto Movies. And this is Deck The Hallmark Podcast. Deck The Hallmark. It's this podcast. That's never good. Oh, okay. We hope you like this jolly podcast. Did you say hate? I up to date.

[00:00:35] [SPEAKER_03]: What happened? Can I tell you what happened? I want to say really quickly, I think a lot of people might consider despised to be like even stronger than hate. Yeah, I just thought it needed a little something-something. But this is, in this line of work, hate is, this is different. Yeah, I think, we'll get to it in the hot take, Brian, but something about this movie particularly set me off. Wow. We're going to have ourselves quite the battle today, Dan. No, no, no, no. What set me off is probably what you loved about it. So it probably won't

[00:01:05] [SPEAKER_02]: be a battle. I think it'll be a situation where the reason it worked is the same reason it didn't work. And the short version is, is if you fell in love with these movies in the early 2010s, this movie was a love letter to you. So there you go. It's good to be back in the studio today. We're recording at night. We did it. Yes, we are recording at night. Air conditioning. Even though we are back in the studio. Even though we're back in the studio. Studio. There is still no school. That's right.

[00:01:31] [SPEAKER_03]: So we have had to, we're recording on a Sunday night, which we haven't done in a hot minute. It's been a while. It has been a hot minute since we've done a Sunday night recording. And we'll see how it goes. We'll see if we still got it. Yeah, I think we do, but the jury's out. We might not, but I think, I think we do. Yeah. You feeling it? I feel like, do you think we still got it? Oh, I don't see where it could have gone. Of course you still got it. Yeah, of course. AC's pumping. It's all that matters. Yeah, it sure is. We are freezing cold in here. I bumped it down hard yesterday. Yeah, yeah.

[00:01:59] [SPEAKER_03]: It is. Oh, it's been like that for a while. We are a week and some change away from the marathon. That's right around the corner. It feels like because kind of we've been living in a little distracted. Like time doesn't matter. No one knows what's going on. Kids are always around. Kids are around. It's hard to really put to words how quickly this is sneaking up on us. It's getting away. Yeah. It's getting away from us a little bit.

[00:02:30] [SPEAKER_03]: But the flights are canceled. Flights are flying. Flights are flying. Flights are booked. Yes. Everybody's coming to town. And we'll be here. The whole Bramble Jam. You're not going anywhere. DTH gang coming to town. The DTH gang. Everybody that hosts regularly here at Deck the Hallmark will be here for the marathon. That's right. It's going to be a fun time had by all. And you're going to get to see everybody who hosts Deck the Hallmark together this week as well for our first of two, I know, Hallmark Christmas preview shows. It's going to fly by. It's going to fly by.

[00:02:59] [SPEAKER_03]: It was quick, right? It's a quick one.

[00:03:02] [SPEAKER_03]: You know, we're making them. Dan was like, let's just do two. And I said, this is a stupid idea. Watch.

[00:03:06] [SPEAKER_03]: That's a good impression of me. Not that he was Brian, but it's good.

[00:03:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's just do two.

[00:03:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that's better. Thank you.

[00:03:11] [SPEAKER_03]: And I was like, I don't know, man. That seems like, you know, we're really shortchanging some people.

[00:03:15] [SPEAKER_03]: You don't know nothing. I hate you.

[00:03:17] [SPEAKER_03]: And so that's me, man. We say despise around here, first of all. And so while we are only getting two, if the first one is any indication, the second one, you're going to be here for a while.

[00:03:30] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a long episode.

[00:03:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Long episode.

[00:03:32] [SPEAKER_03]: But it's a lot of fun. It's a lot of fun.

[00:03:34] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a lot of fun.

[00:03:34] [SPEAKER_03]: A lot of laughs.

[00:03:35] [SPEAKER_02]: Look forward to that.

[00:03:36] [SPEAKER_02]: It's hard to not do bits when Brian's reading. You know what I mean?

[00:03:39] [SPEAKER_02]: They just write themselves.

[00:03:40] [SPEAKER_02]: They write themselves.

[00:03:41] [SPEAKER_03]: You know, the good news is we're recording the second preview show tonight.

[00:03:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Tonight.

[00:03:49] [SPEAKER_03]: It's going to go real fast.

[00:03:52] [SPEAKER_00]: I think it's going to be a quicker one.

[00:03:53] [SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be.

[00:03:54] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:03:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Fly by.

[00:03:56] [SPEAKER_03]: What could go wrong?

[00:03:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Brian, hello. How are you?

[00:03:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm awesome.

[00:04:00] [SPEAKER_03]: How was your weekend?

[00:04:02] [SPEAKER_00]: We're still, we got it's not quite over. It's been fine, man. We've been cleaning out.

[00:04:08] [SPEAKER_00]: What are you cleaning out?

[00:04:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Cleaning out.

[00:04:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Are you robbing places?

[00:04:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Are you recovering?

[00:04:11] [SPEAKER_00]: No, just looting out there. A lot of places, just free stuff. Just hanging around, cleaning stuff.

[00:04:19] [SPEAKER_00]: I put away my home recording studio that we had set.

[00:04:22] [SPEAKER_00]: That was wonderful.

[00:04:24] [SPEAKER_00]: I left the tree up.

[00:04:24] [SPEAKER_03]: You know what? Here it comes.

[00:04:27] [SPEAKER_03]: I played the applause button for you.

[00:04:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Good for you.

[00:04:31] [SPEAKER_02]: You really stepped up big there, bro.

[00:04:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Yep.

[00:04:33] [SPEAKER_00]: I left the tree up, though. That thing is where it belongs.

[00:04:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:04:37] [SPEAKER_02]: Costco special.

[00:04:38] [SPEAKER_03]: That's tough, though. That's tough.

[00:04:40] [SPEAKER_03]: I have looked out my backyard and just kind of looked at it a couple times.

[00:04:46] [SPEAKER_03]: We'll get to it.

[00:04:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Did you get any of the debris off of your house?

[00:04:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Are you still waiting on the...

[00:04:50] [SPEAKER_03]: A little bit. Oh, we got some debris.

[00:04:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:04:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Debris.

[00:04:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Debris.

[00:04:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Some say.

[00:04:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Debris.

[00:04:54] [SPEAKER_00]: Still hanging out in the house.

[00:04:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Still hanging out.

[00:04:56] [SPEAKER_00]: The kids are basically moving into it.

[00:04:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they are.

[00:04:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Turning it into tree forts.

[00:05:00] [SPEAKER_00]: What?

[00:05:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Listen.

[00:05:01] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe it's a blessing.

[00:05:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe.

[00:05:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe.

[00:05:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe.

[00:05:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe.

[00:05:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Maybe.

[00:05:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Dan's backyard.

[00:05:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Where you perched from.

[00:05:25] [SPEAKER_03]: We need to make it a central tree fort.

[00:05:27] [SPEAKER_03]: I think...

[00:05:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Community tree fort.

[00:05:28] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm on board with that aside from the building part.

[00:05:31] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:05:31] [SPEAKER_02]: It's a tough angle and the tree, the way the tree sits is also tough.

[00:05:35] [SPEAKER_02]: I think that's a hire it out situation.

[00:05:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Hire it out.

[00:05:38] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:05:38] [SPEAKER_02]: So, you know...

[00:05:39] [SPEAKER_03]: We can make it into the studio.

[00:05:40] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:05:41] [SPEAKER_02]: We can be a tree house studio.

[00:05:43] [SPEAKER_02]: Has anyone done that?

[00:05:44] [SPEAKER_02]: The sound will be great.

[00:05:45] [SPEAKER_02]: I think we could do it, man.

[00:05:46] [SPEAKER_02]: I think we could be the first.

[00:05:47] [SPEAKER_02]: Run a bunch of cords and cables up there.

[00:05:49] [SPEAKER_02]: Every time Aaron wants to produce an episode, she's got to like tug on a rope and let us climb

[00:05:54] [SPEAKER_02]: up the thing.

[00:05:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the rope.

[00:05:55] [SPEAKER_03]: She can produce it from the house.

[00:05:58] [SPEAKER_04]: I mean, is Andy Lawrence available to help us build it?

[00:06:00] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.

[00:06:01] [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, for sure.

[00:06:01] [SPEAKER_04]: Maybe Joey too?

[00:06:03] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.

[00:06:03] [SPEAKER_04]: Because then I'm kind of in for the vlog.

[00:06:05] [SPEAKER_02]: Joey's definitely free.

[00:06:09] [SPEAKER_02]: He's definitely free these days.

[00:06:10] [SPEAKER_03]: I kind of love this idea.

[00:06:11] [SPEAKER_02]: I know you do.

[00:06:12] [SPEAKER_02]: A tree fort.

[00:06:13] [SPEAKER_04]: I do love having to watch the three of you climb into a tree house every day to record.

[00:06:17] [SPEAKER_03]: What if we get an elevator?

[00:06:20] [SPEAKER_03]: All the money goes to the elevator.

[00:06:22] [SPEAKER_03]: No, we pull it up with a rope.

[00:06:23] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a well...

[00:06:23] [SPEAKER_03]: What if we get an elevator?

[00:06:25] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a levy.

[00:06:26] [SPEAKER_00]: A dump waiter.

[00:06:26] [SPEAKER_03]: A levy?

[00:06:27] [SPEAKER_03]: A lever.

[00:06:29] [SPEAKER_02]: It's not a levy.

[00:06:30] [SPEAKER_02]: Sean Levy?

[00:06:31] [SPEAKER_02]: Like a dump waiter?

[00:06:31] [SPEAKER_02]: Like a pulley.

[00:06:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Like a pulley system.

[00:06:33] [SPEAKER_02]: You were going through all your simple machines and you guys...

[00:06:35] [SPEAKER_02]: Very mechanical.

[00:06:36] [SPEAKER_02]: What if it's a pulley system?

[00:06:39] [SPEAKER_02]: A pulley system.

[00:06:40] [SPEAKER_02]: Who's pulling it to pull me up?

[00:06:42] [SPEAKER_02]: You.

[00:06:42] [SPEAKER_02]: Pull yourself?

[00:06:42] [SPEAKER_02]: You go first.

[00:06:43] [SPEAKER_02]: And I pull myself up.

[00:06:44] [SPEAKER_02]: Yes.

[00:06:45] [SPEAKER_02]: And then I pull the rest of you up.

[00:06:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.

[00:06:47] [SPEAKER_03]: I hate this.

[00:06:48] [SPEAKER_02]: Huh.

[00:06:49] [SPEAKER_03]: You hate hard work.

[00:06:50] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:06:50] [SPEAKER_02]: The rest of us around here, we're working hard.

[00:06:52] [SPEAKER_02]: Was this what you previewed?

[00:06:53] [SPEAKER_02]: When you said I hate...

[00:06:54] [SPEAKER_02]: Yes.

[00:06:55] [SPEAKER_03]: This was what we were...

[00:06:55] [SPEAKER_03]: I knew we were going to get to.

[00:06:56] [SPEAKER_03]: I knew we were going to talk about the tree house.

[00:06:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's get to this.

[00:06:57] [SPEAKER_03]: It was all in show prep.

[00:06:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's get to this.

[00:06:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm mad already, but let's talk about it.

[00:07:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:07:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Autumn at Apple Hill.

[00:07:05] [SPEAKER_03]: It originally premiered on Hallmark Channel on October 5th, 2024.

[00:07:08] [SPEAKER_03]: And it went a little something like that, I guess.

[00:07:10] [SPEAKER_03]: The Inn at Apple Hill has been in Elise's family since her grandparents bought it many moons ago, early in their marriage.

[00:07:19] [SPEAKER_03]: The Inn means everything to Elise.

[00:07:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Everything.

[00:07:22] [SPEAKER_02]: Everything to me.

[00:07:24] [SPEAKER_03]: It's all she ever wanted.

[00:07:29] [SPEAKER_03]: It's all she wanted when she got a divorce from her husband.

[00:07:31] [SPEAKER_03]: She wanted it straight up, and when she was able to get it, she got it.

[00:07:34] [SPEAKER_03]: But the Inn is struggling.

[00:07:36] [SPEAKER_03]: There are leaks.

[00:07:38] [SPEAKER_03]: There are electrical issues.

[00:07:41] [SPEAKER_03]: There are other things.

[00:07:43] [SPEAKER_03]: So she really wants to make the Inn thrive, but in order to do that, she's going to need a loan.

[00:07:49] [SPEAKER_03]: But she is told that she can't get a loan without 15% gross profits.

[00:07:56] [SPEAKER_03]: It's clear as crystal.

[00:07:57] [SPEAKER_03]: The banker encourages her.

[00:07:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Over the course of one month.

[00:07:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Of one month.

[00:08:00] [SPEAKER_02]: It's one month, 15% gross profit, one month.

[00:08:04] [SPEAKER_02]: That's what the bank cares about.

[00:08:05] [SPEAKER_02]: It's one month.

[00:08:06] [SPEAKER_02]: What have you done for me lately?

[00:08:07] [SPEAKER_02]: That's right.

[00:08:07] [SPEAKER_02]: They don't care about two years ago.

[00:08:09] [SPEAKER_02]: Or last year.

[00:08:09] [SPEAKER_02]: It's a short term.

[00:08:10] [SPEAKER_02]: Or two years of the future.

[00:08:11] [SPEAKER_02]: In the month of October, can you turn a profit of 15% in one month?

[00:08:15] [SPEAKER_02]: If you can do it now, you can do it any time.

[00:08:17] [SPEAKER_02]: You can dodge a wrenching, dodge a ball.

[00:08:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, and so the banker encourages her to think about maybe being bought out by one of those

[00:08:25] [SPEAKER_03]: bigger hotel chains.

[00:08:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you know the kind.

[00:08:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Enter Luke Bellwether, who runs the Bellwether Holding Co, a hotel chain.

[00:08:37] [SPEAKER_03]: He runs it with his mother and his mother and basically forces him to go on a vacation because

[00:08:43] [SPEAKER_03]: he is addicted to work.

[00:08:45] [SPEAKER_03]: She even deactivates access to his account.

[00:08:50] [SPEAKER_03]: It's pretty serious stuff.

[00:08:51] [SPEAKER_03]: He decides that he's going to go visit his best friend, Jared, which also happens to come

[00:08:57] [SPEAKER_03]: with a stay at the Inn at Apple Hill.

[00:09:00] [SPEAKER_03]: This is a very important place to him.

[00:09:02] [SPEAKER_03]: This is the place where him and his mom went to when she left his dad.

[00:09:07] [SPEAKER_03]: And then they ended up moving to Apple Hill.

[00:09:09] [SPEAKER_03]: He loves this place and he loves the Inn.

[00:09:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Apparently, uh, this is the area where he grew up.

[00:09:16] [SPEAKER_03]: He was shocked to find out that so many businesses are going out of town and they just tore down

[00:09:23] [SPEAKER_03]: his old high school.

[00:09:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Maybe even with the picture of them with the hockey picture.

[00:09:27] [SPEAKER_02]: And they've got one out of town to make education accessible to all.

[00:09:30] [SPEAKER_02]: So a lot of changes.

[00:09:31] [SPEAKER_02]: Just bust them over.

[00:09:32] [SPEAKER_02]: Just bust them over.

[00:09:33] [SPEAKER_02]: So Elise is having a bad day.

[00:09:36] [SPEAKER_02]: Playing the angry white billionaire, Brian Harold.

[00:09:39] [SPEAKER_03]: That's unlike her.

[00:09:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Just bust them over.

[00:09:41] [SPEAKER_03]: That's not something he's done before.

[00:09:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Elise is having a bad day and she always goes to Tony's to get pizza and play Space Barge.

[00:09:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:09:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Her favorite arcade game, which she has all of the high scores.

[00:09:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Not anything like Space Invaders.

[00:09:56] [SPEAKER_03]: No, it's very different.

[00:09:57] [SPEAKER_03]: You're going to be very clear about that.

[00:09:58] [SPEAKER_03]: But Luke is playing it and she is crushed when she finds out that he has beaten her high score.

[00:10:04] [SPEAKER_03]: This day keeps getting worse.

[00:10:05] [SPEAKER_03]: When she gets back to the Inn, she finds out that somebody named Luke Bellwether from Bellwether

[00:10:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Holdings is going to be staying there.

[00:10:13] [SPEAKER_03]: And she knows what that means.

[00:10:15] [SPEAKER_03]: They're coming in.

[00:10:16] [SPEAKER_03]: They're going to try to buy me out and I'm not having it.

[00:10:19] [SPEAKER_03]: So she wants to do everything she can to make sure that Luke Bellwether doesn't stay at

[00:10:26] [SPEAKER_03]: the Inn.

[00:10:26] [SPEAKER_03]: When Luke shows up, she's like, oh my gosh, it's you.

[00:10:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Even more reason to hate you.

[00:10:32] [SPEAKER_03]: And she gives him room 11.

[00:10:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, no.

[00:10:36] [SPEAKER_03]: She wouldn't give him room 11.

[00:10:38] [SPEAKER_03]: She did.

[00:10:38] [SPEAKER_03]: She did.

[00:10:40] [SPEAKER_03]: A room that no one's supposed to stay in.

[00:10:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Complete with doors that won't stay shut.

[00:10:45] [SPEAKER_03]: No cell service for some reason.

[00:10:47] [SPEAKER_03]: A leaky sink.

[00:10:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Electrical issues.

[00:10:52] [SPEAKER_03]: She goes to talk to, I'm sorry, he goes to talk to Elise.

[00:10:54] [SPEAKER_03]: And somebody did a number on room 11.

[00:10:57] [SPEAKER_03]: And they get into quite the argument.

[00:11:01] [SPEAKER_03]: It's kind of really lucky in all honesty.

[00:11:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it is.

[00:11:04] [SPEAKER_03]: They go to talk.

[00:11:05] [SPEAKER_03]: They get a bit of an argument.

[00:11:06] [SPEAKER_03]: And Luke thinks that the Inn has so much potential and claims that Elise is running it into the ground.

[00:11:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Elise is really struggling, not knowing the future of the Inn.

[00:11:16] [SPEAKER_03]: And to make matters worse, they only have 15 folks signed up for the Apple event.

[00:11:22] [SPEAKER_03]: It's always been a raging success.

[00:11:24] [SPEAKER_03]: You know who does show up, though?

[00:11:26] [SPEAKER_03]: It's Luke.

[00:11:27] [SPEAKER_03]: After seeing how Luke has spruced up his room, he fixed those things himself.

[00:11:33] [SPEAKER_03]: And hearing that Luke helped keep Jared's business afloat, she realizes that maybe she misjudged Luke.

[00:11:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Maybe Luke isn't a bad guy that wants to buy her Inn.

[00:11:47] [SPEAKER_03]: So she goes to try to make things right with him, but he's already on his way out.

[00:11:50] [SPEAKER_03]: So she goes to make things right the only way that you can.

[00:11:53] [SPEAKER_03]: With an apple pie.

[00:11:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Did you bring one today, Brian?

[00:11:56] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:11:57] [SPEAKER_03]: He had power in everything.

[00:11:58] [SPEAKER_02]: It's unbelievable.

[00:11:59] [SPEAKER_03]: And opens up to him about how the Inn is probably not going to make it through the first week of November.

[00:12:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Luke is like, well, how about the Halloween party?

[00:12:07] [SPEAKER_03]: She's like, we haven't done a Halloween party in 15 years.

[00:12:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Lots of number 15s in this movie.

[00:12:13] [SPEAKER_03]: And he's like, well, bring it back and try this one off her size.

[00:12:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Sell tickets.

[00:12:21] [SPEAKER_03]: She agrees.

[00:12:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Social media.

[00:12:23] [SPEAKER_03]: She agrees as long as he.

[00:12:25] [SPEAKER_03]: That's right.

[00:12:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Internet.

[00:12:26] [SPEAKER_03]: iPad.

[00:12:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Tablet.

[00:12:28] [SPEAKER_03]: She agrees as long as he comes back to stay at the end.

[00:12:31] [SPEAKER_03]: They agree and get right to work on party planning.

[00:12:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Wait a daggum second.

[00:12:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Is it a party planning movie?

[00:12:37] [SPEAKER_03]: What?

[00:12:37] [SPEAKER_03]: This is a trick.

[00:12:39] [SPEAKER_03]: They tricked me, but I've been too deep at this point.

[00:12:42] [SPEAKER_03]: There's nothing I can do.

[00:12:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Elise tries to cancel the party, but Luke is like, well, guess what?

[00:12:47] [SPEAKER_03]: I already promoted it and sold 110 tickets.

[00:12:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Boom.

[00:12:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Whoa.

[00:12:50] [SPEAKER_02]: You can't recover from that.

[00:12:52] [SPEAKER_03]: I know.

[00:12:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Those kind of numbers.

[00:12:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, my God.

[00:12:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Luke teaches Elise.

[00:12:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Triple ditch.

[00:12:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Luke teaches Elise the power of asking folks who care for favors.

[00:13:01] [SPEAKER_03]: And she's amazed at how many people are willing to help the end.

[00:13:05] [SPEAKER_03]: He gets a call from his mom, and she says that he actually needs to come back ASAP.

[00:13:10] [SPEAKER_03]: There's been a situation, a contract snafu.

[00:13:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Need you to come back and handle that.

[00:13:15] [SPEAKER_03]: And he's like, I'm not missing this Halloween party at Apple Hill.

[00:13:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Daggum it.

[00:13:18] [SPEAKER_03]: I'll come the day after.

[00:13:20] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm not missing this Halloween party at Apple Hill.

[00:13:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Elise surprises Luke by setting up a picnic in his childhood home, which happens to be

[00:13:25] [SPEAKER_03]: for sale.

[00:13:25] [SPEAKER_03]: And he surprises her by having the inn lit up with lights on a generator.

[00:13:31] [SPEAKER_03]: So that's where all the generators live.

[00:13:32] [SPEAKER_03]: That's where they are.

[00:13:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Thanks so much.

[00:13:33] [SPEAKER_03]: That was plural.

[00:13:34] [SPEAKER_02]: They say in this movie, that was a sting.

[00:13:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Thanks so much.

[00:13:38] [SPEAKER_03]: His mom shows up.

[00:13:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Quack, Mr. Dunstan.

[00:13:41] [SPEAKER_03]: His, uh...

[00:13:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Mr. Bellworth.

[00:13:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Mr. Bellworth.

[00:13:43] [SPEAKER_03]: That's right.

[00:13:43] [SPEAKER_03]: His mom shows up and tries to get him to leave, but he's like, you know what I've learned?

[00:13:48] [SPEAKER_03]: I've learned to trust you, Mom, and to trust, and that you need to trust your gut.

[00:13:53] [SPEAKER_03]: You got a good gut for your age.

[00:13:55] [SPEAKER_03]: She tells him that she hasn't seen him.

[00:13:58] [SPEAKER_03]: I like yogurt.

[00:13:59] [SPEAKER_03]: She says...

[00:14:00] [SPEAKER_03]: All right, baby.

[00:14:01] [SPEAKER_03]: She hasn't...

[00:14:02] [SPEAKER_03]: What the hell?

[00:14:03] [SPEAKER_03]: She tells him that she hasn't seen him this happy in forever.

[00:14:06] [SPEAKER_03]: You go, boy.

[00:14:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Spank kombucha.

[00:14:08] [SPEAKER_03]: The party is a smash hit.

[00:14:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Clear your rage.

[00:14:11] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a graveyard smash, actually.

[00:14:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's unbelievable.

[00:14:15] [SPEAKER_03]: She looks at the books afterwards and finds out that they did not hit that magic number

[00:14:21] [SPEAKER_03]: they needed.

[00:14:22] [SPEAKER_04]: Man.

[00:14:23] [SPEAKER_04]: Didn't even see it coming.

[00:14:24] [SPEAKER_04]: Looks like...

[00:14:24] [SPEAKER_03]: One month to rule them all, you know?

[00:14:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Looks like it's not gonna happen.

[00:14:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Oof.

[00:14:27] [SPEAKER_03]: He's like, sorry, kiddo.

[00:14:28] [SPEAKER_03]: I gotta go.

[00:14:30] [SPEAKER_03]: And she's like, you know what?

[00:14:31] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't want you to leave.

[00:14:33] [SPEAKER_03]: And he kisses her on the cheek, and she cries, and he leaves.

[00:14:35] [SPEAKER_03]: When he gets back to New York, though, his mom tells him that he belongs in Apple

[00:14:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Hill.

[00:14:41] [SPEAKER_03]: He's like, say no more.

[00:14:42] [SPEAKER_03]: When Elise goes to have her follow-up bank meeting, as one does, the banker tells her

[00:14:49] [SPEAKER_03]: that he has seen all he needs to see.

[00:14:51] [SPEAKER_03]: That's right.

[00:14:52] [SPEAKER_03]: No boss.

[00:14:52] [SPEAKER_03]: This shows that you are really caring, and that you are gonna put in a work, and you are

[00:14:59] [SPEAKER_03]: gonna get the loan that you asked for.

[00:15:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Luke shows back up and tells her that he's staying in Apple Hill, and that it's because

[00:15:08] [SPEAKER_03]: of her that she is up for it.

[00:15:12] [SPEAKER_03]: And if she's up for it, we can maybe get together.

[00:15:16] [SPEAKER_03]: And she's like, I've never been up for anything more in my entire life.

[00:15:18] [SPEAKER_03]: And they kiss.

[00:15:19] [SPEAKER_03]: He surprises her by buying Space Barge and having it placed in the inn permanently so

[00:15:25] [SPEAKER_03]: they can play together and kiss while they play.

[00:15:29] [SPEAKER_03]: And that, my friends, was Autumn at Apple Hill.

[00:15:34] [SPEAKER_02]: We did it.

[00:15:35] [SPEAKER_03]: We did do it.

[00:15:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's take a quick break.

[00:15:36] [SPEAKER_03]: We'll come back.

[00:15:37] [SPEAKER_03]: We'll break this movie down with four seconds.

[00:15:38] [SPEAKER_03]: See you around.

[00:15:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Take the hallmark.

[00:15:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Aaron Cam.

[00:15:44] [SPEAKER_00]: That title does not roll off.

[00:15:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Welcome back, everybody.

[00:15:50] [SPEAKER_03]: It's great to be here today.

[00:15:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Happy Tuesday.

[00:15:54] [SPEAKER_03]: We're talking to Autumn at Apple Hill.

[00:15:57] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a good stuff.

[00:15:58] [SPEAKER_03]: An autumn movie, a fall into love movie from the Hallmark Channel.

[00:16:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's break it down with four segments.

[00:16:05] [SPEAKER_03]: We're gonna try something new today.

[00:16:07] [SPEAKER_03]: We're gonna start with a hot take.

[00:16:08] [SPEAKER_03]: It is where we share exactly how we felt about this movie.

[00:16:11] [SPEAKER_03]: We do not hold back, and I will start with you first, Brian.

[00:16:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Brian, what did you think of Autumn at Apple Hill?

[00:16:17] [SPEAKER_00]: First, let's get the m'lady count out of the way.

[00:16:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

[00:16:20] [SPEAKER_00]: We had a one.

[00:16:22] [SPEAKER_00]: We did have a m'lady.

[00:16:24] [SPEAKER_00]: We had a m'lady.

[00:16:24] [SPEAKER_00]: You're right.

[00:16:25] [SPEAKER_00]: We did.

[00:16:25] [SPEAKER_00]: So I want to make sure we get that for the record.

[00:16:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Great.

[00:16:30] [SPEAKER_00]: So I like this movie for a lot of different reasons, though.

[00:16:35] [SPEAKER_00]: It feels a little weird talking about it because I know I feel like it feels like duct taping

[00:16:42] [SPEAKER_00]: like a tiny little hole where you know there's like a waterfall coming because I know you're

[00:16:47] [SPEAKER_00]: going to destroy this.

[00:16:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:16:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Dan's going to just unleash on this movie.

[00:16:50] [SPEAKER_02]: But I mean, to be fair, that is my job if these movies don't hold water to continue

[00:16:58] [SPEAKER_02]: your metaphor.

[00:16:59] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, keep it going.

[00:16:59] [SPEAKER_02]: Keep it going.

[00:17:00] [SPEAKER_02]: But that doesn't mean that you can't like it, Brian.

[00:17:03] [SPEAKER_02]: I know.

[00:17:03] [SPEAKER_02]: I know.

[00:17:04] [SPEAKER_02]: My opinion is not dependent.

[00:17:05] [SPEAKER_00]: But usually we know it's coming, but usually you haven't talked about it so much.

[00:17:10] [SPEAKER_02]: If I hate something that holds up in Brian's eyes, he gets angry.

[00:17:15] [SPEAKER_02]: If I hate something that he knows doesn't hold up, but he loves it anyway, then we can all

[00:17:20] [SPEAKER_02]: just smile and be happy because it's like you liked it for the same reasons I didn't like

[00:17:27] [SPEAKER_02]: it.

[00:17:27] [SPEAKER_00]: That would be my guess.

[00:17:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe.

[00:17:29] [SPEAKER_00]: We'll see.

[00:17:29] [SPEAKER_00]: How about this?

[00:17:30] [SPEAKER_00]: So it starts off.

[00:17:31] [SPEAKER_00]: A lot of stuff happens in this.

[00:17:34] [SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't usually happen.

[00:17:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Like we start with a divorce.

[00:17:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Unusual.

[00:17:37] [SPEAKER_00]: That's true.

[00:17:37] [SPEAKER_00]: That's true.

[00:17:37] [SPEAKER_00]: That's weird.

[00:17:38] [SPEAKER_00]: The beginning of this movie is very much different.

[00:17:40] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

[00:17:41] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

[00:17:41] [SPEAKER_00]: Him showing up, the guy from the big real estate corporation, not there with an interest

[00:17:47] [SPEAKER_00]: in the property was different.

[00:17:49] [SPEAKER_00]: That's right.

[00:17:49] [SPEAKER_00]: I guess.

[00:17:50] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't agree with that.

[00:17:51] [SPEAKER_00]: I was surprised.

[00:17:52] [SPEAKER_00]: It was funny to see her expecting that.

[00:17:55] [SPEAKER_00]: She's like, I know exactly how this is going to go.

[00:17:56] [SPEAKER_00]: And it's just not even on the table.

[00:17:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Luke didn't swoop in and save her at the end.

[00:18:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Like she got it through the bank because of community spirit.

[00:18:06] [SPEAKER_00]: I would argue that she got absolutely robbed blind, but that's fine.

[00:18:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Go ahead.

[00:18:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe.

[00:18:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:18:13] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, we got to look at those terms and conditions and see what the fine print

[00:18:16] [SPEAKER_00]: says.

[00:18:16] [SPEAKER_00]: But so it's nice that the bank worked on the community spirit for her.

[00:18:20] [SPEAKER_00]: And he didn't come in and be like, Hey, I'll, I'll, I'll take care of this.

[00:18:23] [SPEAKER_00]: And he was doing his own thing.

[00:18:24] [SPEAKER_00]: He was there for his own reasons, which was different.

[00:18:28] [SPEAKER_00]: And, but a big gray cloud here that was introduced into my mind throughout this movie was,

[00:18:34] [SPEAKER_00]: are you okay?

[00:18:35] [SPEAKER_00]: We're not getting a hollow at the holly three this year.

[00:18:38] [SPEAKER_00]: And I didn't even realize it until seeing Wes Brown in this movie.

[00:18:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

[00:18:43] [SPEAKER_00]: And it's, once I got that in my mind, I got so bummed out.

[00:18:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:18:47] [SPEAKER_02]: We got two Wes Brown movies in the last three weeks and we don't get a haul at the

[00:18:51] [SPEAKER_02]: holly three.

[00:18:51] [SPEAKER_02]: That's kind of a bummer.

[00:18:53] [SPEAKER_00]: So I did like this.

[00:18:54] [SPEAKER_00]: I had, did have a good time fall off the charts, Halloween decorations off the charts.

[00:18:59] [SPEAKER_00]: A lot of twists that I don't, I didn't expect.

[00:19:01] [SPEAKER_03]: And so for those reasons I'm in, um, I just want to say this.

[00:19:06] [SPEAKER_03]: I am on a boat and this movie is with me and we are floating just fine.

[00:19:12] [SPEAKER_03]: And that doesn't need any help for me.

[00:19:14] [SPEAKER_03]: It's going to be just fine without me.

[00:19:17] [SPEAKER_03]: But luckily I'm along for the ride because this movie is fantastic.

[00:19:20] [SPEAKER_03]: I love you guys doing this whole boat thing and carrying water.

[00:19:24] [SPEAKER_03]: It wasn't a boat.

[00:19:25] [SPEAKER_02]: He said he was going to put a duct tape on.

[00:19:27] [SPEAKER_02]: Duct taping a big leak.

[00:19:28] [SPEAKER_02]: Like a leak.

[00:19:29] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, there's no leak on the boat.

[00:19:30] [SPEAKER_02]: We didn't say anything about it.

[00:19:31] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't, I.

[00:19:32] [SPEAKER_02]: Neither one of us.

[00:19:33] [SPEAKER_02]: No, I brought it up.

[00:19:33] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

[00:19:34] [SPEAKER_02]: You're on a boat and it doesn't need any help from you.

[00:19:36] [SPEAKER_02]: It's doing just fine.

[00:19:37] [SPEAKER_02]: It's doing just fine.

[00:19:37] [SPEAKER_02]: You get your boat.

[00:19:38] [SPEAKER_02]: It doesn't need me to.

[00:19:39] [SPEAKER_02]: And then I said, what are you talking about?

[00:19:41] [SPEAKER_02]: And you said you guys were talking about a boat and I wasn't talking about a boat.

[00:19:44] [SPEAKER_02]: So we're back to you.

[00:19:45] [SPEAKER_02]: Yes.

[00:19:45] [SPEAKER_02]: But you are on a boat with this movie and it is doing fine.

[00:19:48] [SPEAKER_02]: So I brought up the boat.

[00:19:50] [SPEAKER_03]: I heard something about water and my mind went to boat.

[00:19:54] [SPEAKER_03]: All that to say, I love this movie and I had a great time.

[00:19:58] [SPEAKER_03]: It is one of my favorites of the year.

[00:20:01] [SPEAKER_03]: It had all the fall feels.

[00:20:04] [SPEAKER_03]: It had some, it had some old school Hallmark flair, but also to Brian's point, it turned

[00:20:11] [SPEAKER_03]: things on its head.

[00:20:12] [SPEAKER_03]: We didn't get this Bellworth Holdings company coming into this small town trying to destroy

[00:20:17] [SPEAKER_03]: it.

[00:20:17] [SPEAKER_03]: No, this means something to Luke.

[00:20:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Luke went in there and he just said, I just want this to be the place.

[00:20:23] [SPEAKER_03]: And you know what?

[00:20:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Dadgummit, it is that place.

[00:20:26] [SPEAKER_03]: It is that place with a little bit of love.

[00:20:27] [SPEAKER_03]: And sometimes you need somebody to come alongside of you and just be like, hey, let's just try

[00:20:32] [SPEAKER_03]: some things.

[00:20:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's just try some things.

[00:20:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's rely on the kindness of the community that loves this inn, that this inn has been

[00:20:40] [SPEAKER_03]: a staple of this community for a long time.

[00:20:43] [SPEAKER_03]: And so I love that.

[00:20:44] [SPEAKER_03]: I love that the Bellworth family is a family that's not power hungry.

[00:20:50] [SPEAKER_03]: We've seen so many of these corporations that go in and they buy the things or the hotel

[00:20:56] [SPEAKER_03]: chains or the whatever, where the parent is always just like, you've got to do it, Luke.

[00:21:01] [SPEAKER_03]: You've got to get in there and make the deal.

[00:21:02] [SPEAKER_03]: We didn't get any of that.

[00:21:04] [SPEAKER_03]: That was never even on the table.

[00:21:05] [SPEAKER_03]: And I appreciated that.

[00:21:06] [SPEAKER_03]: And I thought, of course, these two leads dynamite, wonderful.

[00:21:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Not only did they have the chemistry, but they looked great.

[00:21:15] [SPEAKER_03]: They looked fall.

[00:21:16] [SPEAKER_03]: They looked autumn.

[00:21:17] [SPEAKER_03]: They looked autumn.

[00:21:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Some of his jackets?

[00:21:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Are you kidding me right now?

[00:21:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Downright autumnal.

[00:21:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Autumnal.

[00:21:23] [SPEAKER_03]: I had a great time.

[00:21:25] [SPEAKER_03]: I thought that it was fantastic.

[00:21:28] [SPEAKER_03]: We'll watch again.

[00:21:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Dan?

[00:21:31] [SPEAKER_02]: Last week you said the Real West.

[00:21:32] [SPEAKER_02]: Time for a break?

[00:21:33] [SPEAKER_02]: Last time you said the Real West is one of your favorites of the year.

[00:21:36] [SPEAKER_02]: The week before you said Falling Together is one of your favorites.

[00:21:39] [SPEAKER_02]: It's been a great.

[00:21:40] [SPEAKER_02]: Aside from the first fall movie.

[00:21:42] [SPEAKER_02]: Could you rank those three for me?

[00:21:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Could you just rank those three?

[00:21:46] [SPEAKER_03]: It's gotten better every week.

[00:21:48] [SPEAKER_03]: This, Real West, and then Falling Together.

[00:21:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Wow.

[00:21:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's gotten better every week.

[00:21:53] [SPEAKER_02]: I think this week was better than...

[00:21:55] [SPEAKER_02]: Fall into Love has gotten better every week.

[00:21:57] [SPEAKER_02]: Are you with it?

[00:21:58] [SPEAKER_02]: You think this is better than the Real West?

[00:22:00] [SPEAKER_02]: I think this is better than the Real West.

[00:22:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

[00:22:02] [SPEAKER_00]: I think I have Real West ahead of this.

[00:22:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:22:04] [SPEAKER_00]: And Falling Together third.

[00:22:05] [SPEAKER_00]: It's been getting better every week.

[00:22:07] [SPEAKER_00]: Those cowboy hats.

[00:22:08] [SPEAKER_00]: Man.

[00:22:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Fall into Love.

[00:22:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Did you see the little Halloween logo on the bottom corner?

[00:22:14] [SPEAKER_00]: That's not a lot.

[00:22:14] [SPEAKER_00]: So that was real nice.

[00:22:16] [SPEAKER_00]: It was a nice touch.

[00:22:17] [SPEAKER_00]: It was like a Halloween week logo.

[00:22:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Got me pretty pumped.

[00:22:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I love it.

[00:22:20] [SPEAKER_00]: It was Halloween in this movie.

[00:22:22] [SPEAKER_00]: It was Halloween in this movie.

[00:22:23] [SPEAKER_03]: You've not seen this one, right?

[00:22:25] [SPEAKER_02]: I haven't seen the Real West either.

[00:22:26] [SPEAKER_02]: How would you rank those other two?

[00:22:28] [SPEAKER_04]: Falling Together is my favorite.

[00:22:29] [SPEAKER_04]: I haven't seen anything else.

[00:22:31] [SPEAKER_02]: You've not seen Real West either?

[00:22:33] [SPEAKER_02]: I think they've gotten worse every week.

[00:22:35] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh my word.

[00:22:36] [SPEAKER_03]: I think they've gotten worse every week.

[00:22:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Shock.

[00:22:38] [SPEAKER_03]: I wish this had breaking news music.

[00:22:40] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't...

[00:22:41] [SPEAKER_02]: Do do do do do do do do.

[00:22:43] [SPEAKER_02]: Listen.

[00:22:43] It does.

[00:22:44] [SPEAKER_02]: This is a movie where Wes Brown and Aaron Cahill are both more than capable and they do a great job.

[00:22:50] [SPEAKER_02]: What are you doing?

[00:22:50] [SPEAKER_02]: Nothing.

[00:22:51] [SPEAKER_02]: Go ahead.

[00:22:51] [SPEAKER_02]: I hit one.

[00:22:52] [SPEAKER_02]: Should we put these earphones in?

[00:22:53] [SPEAKER_00]: No, no, no.

[00:22:54] [SPEAKER_00]: No, we miss all of that.

[00:22:56] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, man.

[00:22:57] [SPEAKER_00]: It's fine.

[00:22:57] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:22:58] [SPEAKER_02]: That's the sound of Dan.

[00:22:59] [SPEAKER_02]: I think Wes Brown and Aaron Cahill are perfectly fine in this movie.

[00:23:02] [SPEAKER_02]: There's no issues with either of those two.

[00:23:04] [SPEAKER_02]: They're wonderful actors and they know what they're doing.

[00:23:06] [SPEAKER_02]: And yes, it starts with a divorce.

[00:23:07] [SPEAKER_02]: And yes, the big bad billionaire company on its surface is good because they're not trying to buy this place.

[00:23:13] [SPEAKER_02]: I would say that with the kind of loan she's getting, it still very much favors the big business.

[00:23:18] [SPEAKER_02]: Because that's neither here nor there.

[00:23:20] [SPEAKER_02]: That's neither here nor there.

[00:23:21] [SPEAKER_02]: Do you see the terms?

[00:23:21] [SPEAKER_02]: I just see the terms.

[00:23:22] [SPEAKER_02]: I wasn't perfect at the terms.

[00:23:23] [SPEAKER_02]: If a banker says my family enjoyed their time at the Halloween party so I've changed my mind on your very risky business loan, then I think we can fill in the blanks there.

[00:23:33] [SPEAKER_02]: Regardless, I think my issue here is this movie, aside from the fact that the billionaire company is not out to get them, which is a little scarier in my mind.

[00:23:43] [SPEAKER_02]: Aside from that one fact, this movie is Bill Abbott's dream movie.

[00:23:49] [SPEAKER_02]: It is the movie that you saw all the time 10 years ago.

[00:23:53] [SPEAKER_02]: It is let's dump autumn all over the place.

[00:23:57] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm not mad about that.

[00:23:58] [SPEAKER_02]: Let's throw party planning in it.

[00:24:00] [SPEAKER_02]: Let's throw two people who kind of sort of grew up in the same town but somehow don't know each other.

[00:24:04] [SPEAKER_02]: Let's throw very questionable banking ethics, very questionable educational ethics, very questionable just math numbers in general.

[00:24:13] [SPEAKER_02]: And let's have an ancestral inheritance of an inn that's been in the family for 100 years hinge on a party that sells 115 tickets.

[00:24:23] [SPEAKER_02]: This movie is ludicrous.

[00:24:25] [SPEAKER_02]: It does not hold up under any scrutiny at all.

[00:24:28] [SPEAKER_02]: But if you want to fold laundry to this movie, if you want to have it on the background, if you want to have fall fields, obviously it fits the bill for all that.

[00:24:36] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm not going to say it doesn't do that.

[00:24:37] [SPEAKER_03]: I kept waiting for you to say something that wasn't great about the movie.

[00:24:40] [SPEAKER_02]: But my whole thing is that unfortunately the last two years Hallmark has made us aspire for more than that.

[00:24:47] [SPEAKER_02]: And so this would have been average in 2015.

[00:24:51] [SPEAKER_02]: This movie was a tough sit.

[00:24:54] [SPEAKER_02]: They don't care about it making sense.

[00:24:56] [SPEAKER_02]: They don't care about it adding up.

[00:24:58] [SPEAKER_02]: They're just dumping fall all over the place.

[00:25:01] [SPEAKER_02]: They're backing up the dumptron and then they're just letting you bask in those autumn fields as a movie that is nonsensical washes over you.

[00:25:09] [SPEAKER_02]: I hated my time with this movie.

[00:25:11] [SPEAKER_02]: I would much rather watch a movie like Falling Together, which you heard my hot take on Falling Together.

[00:25:17] [SPEAKER_02]: But they tried something.

[00:25:19] [SPEAKER_02]: I would much rather watch that movie.

[00:25:21] [SPEAKER_02]: I would much rather watch The Real West where, once again, very different.

[00:25:25] [SPEAKER_02]: They tried something.

[00:25:26] [SPEAKER_02]: So this is the thing that I hated.

[00:25:29] [SPEAKER_02]: And then we stopped having to watch them every week.

[00:25:31] [SPEAKER_02]: And so now when we have to watch one of them, which doesn't happen often, it kind of reminds me of how terrible these movies used to be.

[00:25:38] [SPEAKER_02]: This movie is a reminder that Hallmark used to be a lot worse for me.

[00:25:42] [SPEAKER_02]: For you.

[00:25:43] [SPEAKER_02]: That's right.

[00:25:43] [SPEAKER_02]: Maybe it's better.

[00:25:46] [SPEAKER_02]: Can I make an argument here?

[00:25:48] [SPEAKER_03]: And do it as loud as possible.

[00:25:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Because you said that Hallmark aspired to be better.

[00:25:53] [SPEAKER_03]: And I think Hallmark aspired to have different movies.

[00:25:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Not better because that means that this movie and the thousands that have come before it are now out to dry.

[00:26:04] [SPEAKER_03]: They don't matter anymore.

[00:26:05] [SPEAKER_03]: And that's not true because for folks like me that love this, we still want these.

[00:26:09] [SPEAKER_03]: We just also want something else as well.

[00:26:12] [SPEAKER_03]: And so the fact that we've gotten over the past three weeks three different movies showcases, and they all hit me in different ways, showcases that the network's doing something right.

[00:26:21] [SPEAKER_02]: I would say a movie like this that's plot doesn't hold together is so few and far between now.

[00:26:25] [SPEAKER_02]: We don't have a lot of movies like this anymore.

[00:26:27] [SPEAKER_02]: Most movies, the plot.

[00:26:28] [SPEAKER_02]: What's wrong with the plot?

[00:26:30] [SPEAKER_02]: Do you want me to do it now or in the wait what section?

[00:26:32] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.

[00:26:33] [SPEAKER_02]: Because if you have an inn that's going to go under and can't afford an electrical panel, a Halloween party with 115 guests, even at $10,000 a ticket, probably not going to save you.

[00:26:47] [SPEAKER_02]: Not going to save you.

[00:26:48] [SPEAKER_02]: Not going to do it.

[00:26:49] [SPEAKER_02]: They just got rid of a public school in this movie.

[00:26:51] [SPEAKER_02]: They got rid of one.

[00:26:52] [SPEAKER_02]: The business.

[00:26:53] [SPEAKER_02]: Relocated to a growing community.

[00:26:55] [SPEAKER_02]: Education is an actual right.

[00:26:57] [SPEAKER_02]: You have to have some sort of school within a certain distance from you.

[00:27:00] [SPEAKER_02]: We don't know where it moves.

[00:27:01] [SPEAKER_02]: The two people don't know each other in the movie somehow.

[00:27:04] [SPEAKER_02]: There's so much here that it doesn't hold up under 80s.

[00:27:07] [SPEAKER_02]: There's two grades behind.

[00:27:08] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:27:09] [SPEAKER_02]: Two grades behind.

[00:27:10] [SPEAKER_02]: But we'll get to it.

[00:27:11] [SPEAKER_02]: We got wait what coming?

[00:27:12] [SPEAKER_02]: Don't worry, Brandon.

[00:27:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's get to all the feels.

[00:27:13] [SPEAKER_03]: We're talking about what gives feels.

[00:27:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Brian.

[00:27:17] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, those decorations.

[00:27:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Like you mentioned the dumptron.

[00:27:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, they pulled out the dumptron.

[00:27:21] [SPEAKER_02]: They broke out the dumptron.

[00:27:22] [SPEAKER_02]: But my real feels.

[00:27:24] [SPEAKER_02]: I will say this.

[00:27:25] [SPEAKER_02]: This made us made falling together look like they didn't even try on the fall decorations.

[00:27:32] [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, this movie went above.

[00:27:34] [SPEAKER_02]: This is like whatever that was last year.

[00:27:36] [SPEAKER_02]: Autumn Every.

[00:27:37] [SPEAKER_02]: Fall Everything.

[00:27:37] [SPEAKER_02]: Autumn Everything.

[00:27:39] [SPEAKER_02]: Pumpkin Everything with Taylor Cole.

[00:27:40] [SPEAKER_02]: That's what this.

[00:27:41] [SPEAKER_02]: This is this year's Pumpkin Everything, but it doesn't hold up as much as that one does.

[00:27:45] [SPEAKER_00]: It looks phenomenal.

[00:27:46] [SPEAKER_00]: But I mean, why can't small town banking work this way?

[00:27:50] [SPEAKER_00]: That was sort of my feels was her going to the bank and him being like, you made my family happy.

[00:27:55] [SPEAKER_00]: I believe in you.

[00:27:56] [SPEAKER_00]: You're on the right track.

[00:27:58] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:27:58] [SPEAKER_00]: Why can't it just work like that?

[00:27:59] [SPEAKER_00]: What's wrong with him having a gut feeling about it working?

[00:28:02] [SPEAKER_00]: And that's how it goes.

[00:28:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Like, I'm OK with that.

[00:28:05] [SPEAKER_00]: I think that's.

[00:28:05] [SPEAKER_00]: And so that small town spirit is probably a community bank.

[00:28:08] [SPEAKER_03]: It's probably trying to, in theory, better the community.

[00:28:12] [SPEAKER_00]: I would say that that's probably on their mission statement.

[00:28:14] [SPEAKER_02]: We want to improve our community.

[00:28:15] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't want to do.

[00:28:16] [SPEAKER_02]: Listen, I don't want to do.

[00:28:17] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't want to be that guy.

[00:28:19] [SPEAKER_02]: It should work like that.

[00:28:20] [SPEAKER_02]: But you talking like this is the definition of privilege.

[00:28:24] [SPEAKER_02]: If you get a wink.

[00:28:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Here we go.

[00:28:27] [SPEAKER_02]: All right.

[00:28:28] [SPEAKER_02]: Fine.

[00:28:28] [SPEAKER_02]: Fine.

[00:28:29] [SPEAKER_02]: I'll stop.

[00:28:29] [SPEAKER_02]: But if you go, why don't we have more wink and handshake?

[00:28:32] [SPEAKER_02]: I know this person.

[00:28:34] [SPEAKER_02]: So even though they don't meet the criteria, I'm going to give them the lone wink wink

[00:28:37] [SPEAKER_02]: because they are friends with my family, not because anything else.

[00:28:42] [SPEAKER_02]: It's not about what I said.

[00:28:43] [SPEAKER_02]: That's what Brian just said.

[00:28:44] [SPEAKER_02]: I said community banks should be helping the banks.

[00:28:48] [SPEAKER_02]: But why shouldn't the banks be like this?

[00:28:49] [SPEAKER_02]: The banks should have criteria because you want everyone to have access to money.

[00:28:54] [SPEAKER_02]: That community bank has a limited amount of money.

[00:28:56] [SPEAKER_02]: What if somebody wants to start a small business that has worked really hard and they may not

[00:29:02] [SPEAKER_02]: have the familial hierarchy that the Apple Hill people do, but they qualify?

[00:29:08] [SPEAKER_02]: Why aren't they getting the money?

[00:29:10] [SPEAKER_02]: You can't do this.

[00:29:11] [SPEAKER_02]: They should still get the money.

[00:29:12] [SPEAKER_02]: I miss the good old days where we could sip a cherry Coke and white people gave white

[00:29:15] [SPEAKER_02]: people loans.

[00:29:16] [SPEAKER_02]: That's not how it works.

[00:29:17] [SPEAKER_02]: That shouldn't be how it works.

[00:29:19] [SPEAKER_02]: That's bad.

[00:29:19] [SPEAKER_02]: It's not good.

[00:29:20] [SPEAKER_02]: It's bad.

[00:29:21] [SPEAKER_00]: I just want banks to help communities.

[00:29:22] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, that's all I said.

[00:29:23] [SPEAKER_02]: No, you want to help the community that knows that part of the community to help that

[00:29:27] [SPEAKER_02]: part of the community.

[00:29:29] [SPEAKER_02]: If you throw out any of this criteria, you're basically asking for a lot of prejudice.

[00:29:34] [SPEAKER_02]: And you know it.

[00:29:34] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think that people who do qualify and need help should be excluded either.

[00:29:39] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, but the banks has a certain amount of money to learn about.

[00:29:41] [SPEAKER_02]: It's a community bank.

[00:29:41] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, we could do smaller loans.

[00:29:42] [SPEAKER_02]: This person didn't qualify and they gave them the money.

[00:29:45] [SPEAKER_02]: What does that mean?

[00:29:46] [SPEAKER_02]: That money's gone.

[00:29:48] [SPEAKER_02]: But it's coming back because the business is going to do great.

[00:29:51] [SPEAKER_02]: But maybe they fail and they lose the money and now they've closed on the estate.

[00:29:54] [SPEAKER_00]: And that bank manager's out of a job.

[00:29:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:29:56] [SPEAKER_00]: Or that loan officer.

[00:29:57] [SPEAKER_00]: So it's a risk.

[00:29:59] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, I mean the decorations were great.

[00:30:01] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm glad.

[00:30:02] [SPEAKER_00]: How big do you think this town is, Dan?

[00:30:04] [SPEAKER_02]: That is one of my weight what's.

[00:30:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Because I thought it was a very small town.

[00:30:08] [SPEAKER_02]: But if it's a small town, then they know each other.

[00:30:11] [SPEAKER_02]: Because two grades apart means nothing.

[00:30:12] [SPEAKER_02]: If it's a big town, then it doesn't.

[00:30:14] [SPEAKER_02]: But then they don't close the school.

[00:30:15] [SPEAKER_02]: Can I ask you this?

[00:30:16] [SPEAKER_02]: And more than 115 people show up.

[00:30:18] [SPEAKER_02]: The movie does not hold up in that regard.

[00:30:20] [SPEAKER_02]: Which town would you be comfortable in?

[00:30:22] [SPEAKER_02]: Me?

[00:30:22] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:30:23] [SPEAKER_02]: I'd be comfortable with either.

[00:30:24] [SPEAKER_02]: But you know I love a small town.

[00:30:25] [SPEAKER_02]: I know.

[00:30:26] [SPEAKER_02]: You do.

[00:30:26] [SPEAKER_03]: So that's my thing.

[00:30:27] [SPEAKER_03]: I was born in a small town.

[00:30:27] [SPEAKER_02]: It seems like you're against a small town.

[00:30:29] [SPEAKER_02]: I have nothing against a big town.

[00:30:31] [SPEAKER_02]: And I want that on the record.

[00:30:32] [SPEAKER_02]: It seems like you got a lot against a small town.

[00:30:33] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:30:33] [SPEAKER_02]: Which would lead me to believe that you have.

[00:30:34] [SPEAKER_02]: I have a lot against handshake deals.

[00:30:37] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

[00:30:37] [SPEAKER_02]: I have a lot against handshake deals.

[00:30:39] [SPEAKER_02]: It seems like you like big city.

[00:30:41] [SPEAKER_02]: I think in this regard.

[00:30:42] [SPEAKER_02]: And I've already always said I have nothing against a big town.

[00:30:44] [SPEAKER_02]: And in this regard, the big town is right.

[00:30:46] [SPEAKER_02]: Wow.

[00:30:47] [SPEAKER_03]: You got that?

[00:30:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:30:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Let me ask you this.

[00:30:50] [SPEAKER_03]: You die.

[00:30:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:30:52] [SPEAKER_03]: In.

[00:30:53] [SPEAKER_03]: No, I won't.

[00:30:53] [SPEAKER_03]: I will die in a small town.

[00:30:55] [SPEAKER_01]: How can you promise?

[00:30:56] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[00:30:57] [SPEAKER_03]: This is a promise.

[00:30:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Here's the hypothetical.

[00:30:58] [SPEAKER_03]: This is a promise.

[00:30:59] [SPEAKER_03]: You don't want to go to a small town bank.

[00:31:01] [SPEAKER_03]: So you go to the big city bank and then you die.

[00:31:03] [SPEAKER_02]: I'll be.

[00:31:03] [SPEAKER_02]: I'll get to the small town before I die.

[00:31:05] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

[00:31:05] [SPEAKER_02]: They'll airlift me.

[00:31:06] [SPEAKER_02]: There's just no way for you to promise that.

[00:31:07] [SPEAKER_02]: They will airlift me.

[00:31:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Is that in your will?

[00:31:09] [SPEAKER_02]: At what point is Greenville?

[00:31:10] [SPEAKER_03]: That sounds like a handshake deal that you have with the big city bank.

[00:31:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Exactly.

[00:31:14] [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm already mad at myself.

[00:31:17] [SPEAKER_03]: It seems like you're calling kettles.

[00:31:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[00:31:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Do you have anything else?

[00:31:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Tea drinker over there.

[00:31:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Did you have anything else?

[00:31:24] [SPEAKER_03]: What?

[00:31:25] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:31:25] [SPEAKER_03]: That was it.

[00:31:27] [SPEAKER_03]: I love, we've seen a lot of the mother, son or the son and father relationship where they

[00:31:36] [SPEAKER_03]: run the business and those relationships by and large.

[00:31:41] [SPEAKER_02]: It's probably where they'll bury me is all I'm saying.

[00:31:43] [SPEAKER_02]: They'll probably bury me in a small town too.

[00:31:45] [SPEAKER_02]: I will die there and it's probably where they'll bury me.

[00:31:49] [SPEAKER_02]: And you need to know that.

[00:31:50] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm sorry to interrupt you, but it's probably where they'll bury me.

[00:31:53] [SPEAKER_03]: I just don't, if you are never going to go to a small town bank,

[00:31:55] [SPEAKER_03]: you have to at least acknowledge.

[00:31:57] [SPEAKER_02]: I'll bank in a small town bank.

[00:31:59] [SPEAKER_02]: Interesting.

[00:31:59] [SPEAKER_02]: I just want everybody to have equal opportunity to that money.

[00:32:01] [SPEAKER_02]: That's what I want.

[00:32:02] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:32:02] [SPEAKER_02]: Great.

[00:32:03] [SPEAKER_02]: And I agree with that.

[00:32:04] [SPEAKER_02]: And I will die in a small town.

[00:32:05] [SPEAKER_02]: I agree with that, but you would.

[00:32:06] [SPEAKER_02]: And they'll probably bury me there.

[00:32:08] [SPEAKER_02]: Go ahead.

[00:32:08] [SPEAKER_03]: But I would just say you would, you know, you would say that maybe the big city banks

[00:32:13] [SPEAKER_03]: maybe are doing things in a way that you would be more comfortable banking.

[00:32:17] [SPEAKER_03]: I would hope so.

[00:32:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.

[00:32:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:32:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Then this bank.

[00:32:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Then this bank.

[00:32:20] [SPEAKER_03]: That's my thing.

[00:32:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:32:21] [SPEAKER_03]: I just think that you are painting yourself into a tight corner that you can't die.

[00:32:26] [SPEAKER_03]: You're right.

[00:32:27] [SPEAKER_03]: That's tough.

[00:32:28] [SPEAKER_03]: All right.

[00:32:29] [SPEAKER_03]: And I feel like the mother-son relationship in this movie, it was heartwarming to see an

[00:32:37] [SPEAKER_03]: actual healthy mother-son relationship where they're in business together.

[00:32:44] [SPEAKER_03]: They're in a business that is in hotel chains.

[00:32:49] [SPEAKER_03]: And it's not like, hey, you got to go and get this thing.

[00:32:51] [SPEAKER_03]: It was, hey, you're working too much.

[00:32:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Take a break.

[00:32:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Go back to the place.

[00:32:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Go back to the small town.

[00:32:56] [SPEAKER_03]: You love the small town.

[00:32:57] [SPEAKER_03]: You want to die there.

[00:32:58] [SPEAKER_02]: But easily the best scene in the movie is the kid and his mom.

[00:33:03] [SPEAKER_02]: That's the best scene in the movie, right?

[00:33:04] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:33:05] [SPEAKER_02]: Like when he's like, I just wanted to make you proud.

[00:33:07] [SPEAKER_02]: That scene is a great scene.

[00:33:08] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:33:08] [SPEAKER_02]: Dan?

[00:33:09] [SPEAKER_02]: Do you remember that Halloween party they had in this movie and they used it as a charity

[00:33:12] [SPEAKER_02]: and all the adults didn't dress up?

[00:33:14] [SPEAKER_02]: That's the one.

[00:33:16] [SPEAKER_02]: That's the one right there.

[00:33:17] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:33:18] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:33:19] [SPEAKER_02]: All the feels.

[00:33:20] [SPEAKER_02]: All the feels.

[00:33:21] [SPEAKER_02]: It was wonderful.

[00:33:22] [SPEAKER_02]: Adults were like this is a thing for kids to dress up.

[00:33:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Ridiculous.

[00:33:25] [SPEAKER_02]: It's perfect.

[00:33:26] [SPEAKER_02]: Perfect.

[00:33:26] [SPEAKER_02]: Chef's kiss.

[00:33:27] [SPEAKER_02]: No nuts.

[00:33:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's take a break.

[00:33:28] [SPEAKER_03]: We'll come back.

[00:33:29] [SPEAKER_03]: We'll get to the, wait, what the what the hallmark here on?

[00:33:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Take the hallmark.

[00:33:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Welcome back to the show.

[00:33:45] [SPEAKER_03]: We're talking to Autumn at Apple Hill Inn.

[00:33:50] [SPEAKER_03]: It's quite a pause.

[00:33:51] [SPEAKER_03]: I know.

[00:33:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Couldn't remember if it was Inn or Hill.

[00:33:53] [SPEAKER_03]: I decided to go with both.

[00:33:55] [SPEAKER_03]: And everything after.

[00:33:55] [SPEAKER_03]: And everything after and all at once.

[00:33:58] [SPEAKER_03]: It's time to talk about the way it was.

[00:34:00] [SPEAKER_03]: We were talking about when this movie made us go.

[00:34:01] [SPEAKER_03]: We were at Brian.

[00:34:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:34:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Him.

[00:34:03] [SPEAKER_00]: He was just the most understanding guest that has ever existed in any form of service or anything.

[00:34:12] [SPEAKER_00]: He's above and beyond.

[00:34:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Unbelievable.

[00:34:15] [SPEAKER_00]: So that was just me.

[00:34:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Hearing his backstory, though, with the inmate, it makes sense.

[00:34:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:34:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:34:18] [SPEAKER_00]: He did to do well.

[00:34:19] [SPEAKER_00]: He had some credibility.

[00:34:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, absolutely.

[00:34:21] [SPEAKER_00]: She was just so mean to him.

[00:34:23] [SPEAKER_00]: I just felt so bad.

[00:34:24] [SPEAKER_00]: You just end up feeling so bad for him.

[00:34:27] [SPEAKER_00]: But he was so understanding.

[00:34:28] [SPEAKER_00]: She won't take a loan from him.

[00:34:31] [SPEAKER_00]: That's right.

[00:34:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Here we go.

[00:34:32] [SPEAKER_00]: But she's like scraping to get it from the bank.

[00:34:35] [SPEAKER_02]: Like, let.

[00:34:36] [SPEAKER_02]: This small business loan from the bank is going to be tacked with, unless they get the

[00:34:40] [SPEAKER_02]: old, hey, you're a member of the community discount.

[00:34:42] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:34:43] [SPEAKER_02]: This is going to be tacked with a pretty hefty interest.

[00:34:45] [SPEAKER_02]: 100%.

[00:34:46] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:34:46] [SPEAKER_02]: And she believes that is doing it on her own.

[00:34:49] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:34:49] [SPEAKER_02]: Whereas taking a loan from someone who is from the town and wants to invest in the company

[00:34:55] [SPEAKER_02]: is not doing it on her own.

[00:34:57] [SPEAKER_00]: And he, his track record is, I would even argue, better than a bank.

[00:35:02] [SPEAKER_00]: He's more of a partner.

[00:35:03] [SPEAKER_00]: He is.

[00:35:03] [SPEAKER_00]: He's invested.

[00:35:04] [SPEAKER_00]: And he knows how to fix the hotel.

[00:35:05] [SPEAKER_00]: He knows what he's doing.

[00:35:06] [SPEAKER_00]: He's in the hotel business.

[00:35:07] [SPEAKER_00]: He's in the industry.

[00:35:07] [SPEAKER_00]: He's invested in businesses.

[00:35:09] [SPEAKER_02]: Like, it's a no-brainer.

[00:35:11] [SPEAKER_02]: The loan part of this movie is really what set me off, if I'm being particularly honest

[00:35:15] [SPEAKER_00]: with you.

[00:35:15] [SPEAKER_00]: It is an unnecessary thing to keep going towards.

[00:35:18] [SPEAKER_02]: And then the terms of the loan, all of it.

[00:35:20] [SPEAKER_03]: I like to think that what should have happened, and I do agree, what should have happened is

[00:35:25] [SPEAKER_03]: at the end of this movie, one, she gets to know the guy.

[00:35:27] [SPEAKER_03]: And the fact that the guy has given loans to Jared before, and Jared was still able to

[00:35:31] [SPEAKER_03]: run the business how he wanted to run the business.

[00:35:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Went to Jared?

[00:35:32] [SPEAKER_03]: He went to Jared.

[00:35:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Would prove like, hey, this guy, I understand at the beginning not wanting to take money

[00:35:39] [SPEAKER_03]: from him because that means that I'm going to have to change my hotel.

[00:35:43] [SPEAKER_03]: And I want to keep it here.

[00:35:44] [SPEAKER_03]: He runs in the, he's in the hotel space.

[00:35:45] [SPEAKER_03]: That means I'm going to have to conform.

[00:35:47] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm more comfortable taking money from the bank.

[00:35:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Even if it means that my hands are tied financially a little bit, I'm able to still do things

[00:35:53] [SPEAKER_03]: the way that I want to.

[00:35:54] [SPEAKER_03]: But once you get to know the guy, you fall in love with the guy, you see that he's given

[00:35:58] [SPEAKER_03]: money to Jared.

[00:35:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:35:59] [SPEAKER_03]: He went to Jared.

[00:35:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I do understand that.

[00:36:00] [SPEAKER_03]: I do understand that frustration.

[00:36:03] [SPEAKER_02]: Also, he, you know, this movie's big crescendo that's not the kiss is, exactly.

[00:36:10] [SPEAKER_02]: The big crescendo that isn't the kiss is, congratulations, we're giving you the loan.

[00:36:15] [SPEAKER_02]: Big music plays.

[00:36:16] [SPEAKER_02]: Guys, I don't know if you know this.

[00:36:17] [SPEAKER_02]: Banks freaking love, like they do everything possible to get you money because they're making

[00:36:24] [SPEAKER_02]: all the money.

[00:36:25] [SPEAKER_02]: Like the idea that this is like her, like Rudy getting on the field and she could have

[00:36:31] [SPEAKER_02]: gotten an interest free loan from someone who's done it before.

[00:36:34] [SPEAKER_02]: And professional was like really, really hard for me.

[00:36:37] [SPEAKER_02]: Like, and all she had to show is grow 50% gross profit for a month.

[00:36:41] [SPEAKER_02]: And probably an end called Apple Hill.

[00:36:46] [SPEAKER_02]: If you can't profit 50, it would be like if you and I couldn't profit in December.

[00:36:50] [SPEAKER_02]: Like, what are we doing here, gang?

[00:36:53] [SPEAKER_02]: And she didn't make it.

[00:36:54] [SPEAKER_02]: I want to be clear.

[00:36:54] [SPEAKER_02]: She didn't make it.

[00:36:55] [SPEAKER_02]: She didn't make it.

[00:36:56] [SPEAKER_02]: The easiest of terms, the bank was like, let's throw her a softball.

[00:36:59] [SPEAKER_02]: 15% gross profit in your easiest month.

[00:37:03] [SPEAKER_02]: Can't do it?

[00:37:04] [SPEAKER_02]: Still get it.

[00:37:05] [SPEAKER_02]: Because we love you and your family.

[00:37:07] [SPEAKER_02]: That's bad.

[00:37:08] [SPEAKER_02]: That's real bad.

[00:37:09] [SPEAKER_02]: Sorry.

[00:37:10] [SPEAKER_02]: Go ahead, Brian.

[00:37:11] [SPEAKER_00]: My last one was, there was, it was like an apple picking party or something that they

[00:37:17] [SPEAKER_00]: did.

[00:37:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, the first thing.

[00:37:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, the first thing.

[00:37:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:37:19] [SPEAKER_00]: And everybody's picking hundreds of apples.

[00:37:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Like, there are so many apples to be picked.

[00:37:26] [SPEAKER_00]: And then, like, what do they do with the apple?

[00:37:29] [SPEAKER_00]: There are so many apples.

[00:37:31] [SPEAKER_00]: There are so many apples.

[00:37:31] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean.

[00:37:32] [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like a lot of the, I assume all the guests at the end are picking apples there.

[00:37:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Like, do they then give them to the helper to make, could she make all those pies?

[00:37:43] [SPEAKER_00]: It's sort of a, what the whole.

[00:37:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Depends.

[00:37:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Are they a helper of the week?

[00:37:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe a helper of the week, I guess.

[00:37:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Because it looked like she took all those apples and made pies for everybody.

[00:37:51] [SPEAKER_00]: The, the assistant who worked at the end.

[00:37:54] [SPEAKER_00]: Like, just so many apples.

[00:37:56] [SPEAKER_00]: Where are all these pies coming from?

[00:37:57] [SPEAKER_00]: Like, very, very curious.

[00:38:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Like, very, I was like, how?

[00:38:02] [SPEAKER_00]: What do they do with all these apples?

[00:38:04] [SPEAKER_00]: There's so many apples.

[00:38:04] [SPEAKER_00]: So many apples.

[00:38:05] [SPEAKER_00]: And all these pies.

[00:38:06] [SPEAKER_00]: It's just, there's a lot going on there.

[00:38:08] [SPEAKER_00]: They just didn't talk about what was going on as much.

[00:38:11] [SPEAKER_00]: So that's it.

[00:38:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, you know, per usual, if I love the movie, I also have a lot of white watts.

[00:38:16] [SPEAKER_03]: And so here are some.

[00:38:18] [SPEAKER_03]: One, um, I found it odd that she waited to take her rings off until the divorce proceedings ended.

[00:38:26] [SPEAKER_03]: That's a really like, typically when everyone I, yeah.

[00:38:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Everyone I've ever known that's gotten a divorce, they, when they are like, Hey, I'm getting a divorce.

[00:38:36] [SPEAKER_03]: They don't want that ring on anymore.

[00:38:38] [SPEAKER_03]: They don't want it around.

[00:38:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Or they're in denial and want to keep it on.

[00:38:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, for sure.

[00:38:41] [SPEAKER_03]: It's definitely not the middle.

[00:38:42] [SPEAKER_03]: This was that.

[00:38:43] [SPEAKER_03]: We've done it with all the eyes are dotted and the T's are crossed.

[00:38:47] [SPEAKER_03]: And here they are.

[00:38:48] [SPEAKER_03]: That's right.

[00:38:49] [SPEAKER_03]: For you to take back and do what you want to with them.

[00:38:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, love that.

[00:38:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, he went to get a meal with his mom and, um, his phone starts dinging a lot.

[00:39:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, here we go.

[00:39:02] [SPEAKER_02]: It's a good one.

[00:39:03] [SPEAKER_03]: He's like, well, she's like, what is that?

[00:39:04] [SPEAKER_03]: And he's like, I just fired off a very important email.

[00:39:07] [SPEAKER_03]: And those are probably the responses.

[00:39:10] [SPEAKER_01]: What was in that email?

[00:39:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:39:12] [SPEAKER_03]: That I've never in my life.

[00:39:14] [SPEAKER_03]: And I've seen some doozies.

[00:39:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:39:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Ever gotten.

[00:39:17] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:39:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bong.

[00:39:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, email returns.

[00:39:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.

[00:39:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Text, text threads get out of hand.

[00:39:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.

[00:39:23] [SPEAKER_03]: But email returns.

[00:39:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Everybody's kind of on their own, off of their own speed there.

[00:39:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:39:29] [SPEAKER_02]: And, uh, I've never gotten a thousand responses at once.

[00:39:33] [SPEAKER_02]: Uh, the, the, when the Greenville County canceled all the, uh, book fairs at our school, they

[00:39:37] [SPEAKER_02]: sent something out and somebody hit reply all with a political statement.

[00:39:41] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh.

[00:39:41] [SPEAKER_02]: And that became a real fun read.

[00:39:43] [SPEAKER_02]: Uh, that, so that has happened.

[00:39:45] [SPEAKER_03]: They sent it out and they didn't BCC all the family emails.

[00:39:49] [SPEAKER_02]: And somebody was like, this is what, somebody's like, please don't reply all.

[00:39:52] [SPEAKER_02]: And somebody's like, this is what you get when you don't BCC.

[00:39:55] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh.

[00:39:55] [SPEAKER_02]: So there, that happened.

[00:39:56] [SPEAKER_02]: That's.

[00:39:57] [SPEAKER_02]: And should have.

[00:39:57] [SPEAKER_02]: That should be illegal.

[00:39:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I think.

[00:40:00] [SPEAKER_03]: To not BCC.

[00:40:01] [SPEAKER_03]: I think it probably is.

[00:40:02] [SPEAKER_03]: I think it has to get some sort of privacy.

[00:40:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:40:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:40:05] [SPEAKER_03]: I guess.

[00:40:06] [SPEAKER_03]: So that's fun.

[00:40:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, she, uh, mom threatens him and says, Hey, I'm going to deactivate your account.

[00:40:13] [SPEAKER_03]: And I don't really know what that means.

[00:40:14] [SPEAKER_03]: It's an email or whatever.

[00:40:16] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[00:40:17] [SPEAKER_03]: But, and then she says, if you even try to log back in, you're going to be in big trouble.

[00:40:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Who freaking cares if he, if it's deactivated, it's deactivated.

[00:40:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that's right.

[00:40:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, it's not like if you would try, if you try it 25 times, it activates itself again.

[00:40:30] [SPEAKER_03]: So don't do that.

[00:40:31] [SPEAKER_03]: No, it's deactivated.

[00:40:33] [SPEAKER_03]: That's it.

[00:40:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Buddy.

[00:40:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Done.

[00:40:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Try all you want.

[00:40:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:40:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Go for it.

[00:40:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Try.

[00:40:36] [SPEAKER_03]: It's not an active account.

[00:40:38] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:40:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Just because you try doesn't mean you can get it.

[00:40:41] [SPEAKER_02]: No.

[00:40:42] [SPEAKER_03]: It's deactivated.

[00:40:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:40:43] [SPEAKER_02]: They don't know the tech in the movie.

[00:40:45] [SPEAKER_03]: They don't know.

[00:40:45] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:40:45] [SPEAKER_03]: It's deactivated and don't try though.

[00:40:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Don't you.

[00:40:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Because that's worse.

[00:40:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, I think my biggest one here in this movie is that this in is way too nice to be struggling.

[00:40:57] [SPEAKER_03]: This in is amazing.

[00:41:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:41:00] [SPEAKER_03]: This in.

[00:41:00] [SPEAKER_03]: As far as room 11.

[00:41:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Aside from room 11.

[00:41:03] [SPEAKER_03]: The, this place on the outside, gorgeous.

[00:41:06] [SPEAKER_03]: The inside looks freshly renovated.

[00:41:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, we see a bathroom at one point.

[00:41:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Amazing.

[00:41:12] [SPEAKER_03]: We see a kitchen at one point.

[00:41:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Amazing.

[00:41:13] [SPEAKER_03]: This, this, this in is amazing.

[00:41:17] [SPEAKER_03]: This is not an in.

[00:41:19] [SPEAKER_03]: And so what's happening in room 11 can only be described as an absolute anomaly because the rest of the in is in pristine.

[00:41:30] [SPEAKER_03]: She does talk about the electrical panel.

[00:41:32] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:41:32] [SPEAKER_02]: But the aesthetics of the in are clearly great.

[00:41:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Get a generator.

[00:41:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:41:37] [SPEAKER_03]: I know where you can find some.

[00:41:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Several.

[00:41:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, last but not least.

[00:41:41] [SPEAKER_03]: He, they walk into the Halloween party and, uh, or he's like, is that a selfie wall?

[00:41:47] [SPEAKER_03]: How did he get that from that?

[00:41:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, that's just, it's just a bunch of decorations.

[00:41:52] [SPEAKER_02]: He wants a selfie wall so bad in this movie.

[00:41:56] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:41:56] [SPEAKER_02]: From the first time he makes a suggestion, he's like selfies.

[00:42:01] [SPEAKER_02]: Listen, the key to your financial success is selfies.

[00:42:05] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:42:05] [SPEAKER_02]: And so any wall he sees, I think is, you're right.

[00:42:09] [SPEAKER_02]: It's crazy.

[00:42:09] [SPEAKER_02]: I see a step and repeat or something with little clear photo booth.

[00:42:13] [SPEAKER_03]: I think that's a, that's just a wall with lots of decorations on it.

[00:42:17] [SPEAKER_02]: That's a selfie wall.

[00:42:18] [SPEAKER_02]: Good for, good for them.

[00:42:19] [SPEAKER_02]: Uh, Dana.

[00:42:20] [SPEAKER_02]: My man gets an audible notification sound on his phone for every time he receives an email.

[00:42:24] [SPEAKER_02]: Uh, shoot me in the face.

[00:42:26] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know anyone who would do that.

[00:42:30] [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, and then with Brian, between, between Brian and deck the homework.com.

[00:42:37] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

[00:42:37] [SPEAKER_02]: Where you send all your subscriptions.

[00:42:38] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't even want to say it.

[00:42:40] [SPEAKER_00]: Nevermind.

[00:42:41] [SPEAKER_02]: Uh, but yeah, we've got, we made the mistake of getting two different email addresses to brand.

[00:42:46] [SPEAKER_02]: And then I've got a person, like, I don't even want to think about an email notification,

[00:42:51] [SPEAKER_02]: audible notification on my phone.

[00:42:53] [SPEAKER_02]: Every time I get an email would never sleep.

[00:42:57] [SPEAKER_02]: And this guy is so excited.

[00:42:58] [SPEAKER_00]: So stressful.

[00:42:59] [SPEAKER_02]: That they're all popping off with this email that he sent.

[00:43:01] [SPEAKER_02]: Which is crazy.

[00:43:02] [SPEAKER_02]: It's work.

[00:43:03] [SPEAKER_02]: Um, there is no consistency with how big this town is at all.

[00:43:07] [SPEAKER_02]: Uh, at first it's like these two people don't know each other and it's like, well,

[00:43:12] [SPEAKER_02]: they were two grades apart.

[00:43:13] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

[00:43:13] [SPEAKER_02]: Well, that makes sense.

[00:43:13] [SPEAKER_02]: You went to a school with 5,000 people.

[00:43:15] [SPEAKER_02]: Then like, yeah, you would get easily lost in that seat.

[00:43:17] [SPEAKER_02]: And then you realize later that they do kind of sort of remember each other from school.

[00:43:22] [SPEAKER_02]: And then you realize that the town doesn't even have a public school in it anymore, which

[00:43:27] [SPEAKER_02]: means there's either nobody in the town or it wasn't big enough to hold that many people

[00:43:31] [SPEAKER_02]: and they needed to join with another town.

[00:43:33] [SPEAKER_02]: But I think the problem is that how big are we supposed to think this loan is?

[00:43:39] [SPEAKER_02]: How big of a deal are we supposed to think this financial struggle is?

[00:43:42] [SPEAKER_02]: And then there's a weird crossover in this movie between people who know Luke, but not

[00:43:48] [SPEAKER_02]: Elise, people that know Elise, but not Luke and people that know both of them.

[00:43:53] [SPEAKER_02]: And it's like, everyone is confused why everyone else isn't on their page.

[00:43:59] [SPEAKER_02]: So it's like, you know, Luke, he went to school.

[00:44:02] [SPEAKER_02]: Luke, Lucas.

[00:44:03] [SPEAKER_02]: You remember Luke.

[00:44:05] [SPEAKER_02]: And then they're like, oh, you know, Elise from Elise, Elise town.

[00:44:08] [SPEAKER_02]: Like everyone who is not Luke or Elise is in one of these spheres and there's a Venn diagram

[00:44:14] [SPEAKER_02]: and there's like a few people in the middle who know everybody.

[00:44:17] [SPEAKER_02]: And they're very confused how this town's got eight people in it, gang.

[00:44:23] [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, the apple picking thing had 15 attendees, most of which didn't talk.

[00:44:29] [SPEAKER_02]: There is no world where these two people could grow up together and not have bumped into each

[00:44:36] [SPEAKER_02]: other, run into each other enough to remember each other.

[00:44:39] [SPEAKER_02]: I was shocked by that.

[00:44:41] [SPEAKER_02]: We got to talk about what Luke did in his room.

[00:44:44] [SPEAKER_02]: And then we got to talk about autumn festival and then space barge.

[00:44:47] [SPEAKER_02]: Then I'll be done.

[00:44:48] [SPEAKER_02]: I promise.

[00:44:50] [SPEAKER_02]: Luke did electrical work in his room.

[00:44:54] [SPEAKER_02]: He fixed electrical wires in his own room.

[00:44:58] [SPEAKER_02]: Now, I am not an electrician and I think it's super dangerous.

[00:45:03] [SPEAKER_02]: I've done a little bit of electrical work.

[00:45:05] [SPEAKER_02]: And the number one rule of electrical work is you turn the breaker off.

[00:45:09] [SPEAKER_02]: That is number one on the board.

[00:45:12] [SPEAKER_02]: Number one answer on the board.

[00:45:14] [SPEAKER_02]: Write that down.

[00:45:14] [SPEAKER_02]: You do not do electrical work with wires that are live.

[00:45:18] [SPEAKER_02]: For Luke to be in his room and to fix hot electrical wires is insanity.

[00:45:26] [SPEAKER_02]: It's insanity.

[00:45:28] [SPEAKER_02]: You're going to get yourself hurt or killed.

[00:45:30] [SPEAKER_02]: How would you know they worked unless you did hurt or kill yourself?

[00:45:33] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know, but he did it.

[00:45:37] [SPEAKER_02]: Congratulations, Luke.

[00:45:38] [SPEAKER_02]: This space barge game is a riot because to get the new high score on this game that's been

[00:45:43] [SPEAKER_02]: around for decades, it takes, I think, five minutes.

[00:45:47] [SPEAKER_02]: He gets the new high score on this game before his pizza is ready.

[00:45:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:45:52] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:45:52] [SPEAKER_02]: Which is under six minutes probably like these are cake games that have been around for 40,

[00:45:56] [SPEAKER_02]: 50 years.

[00:45:57] [SPEAKER_02]: It takes like, I don't know, an hour or so to really get a high score on one of these

[00:46:02] [SPEAKER_02]: games.

[00:46:02] [SPEAKER_02]: This guy crushes it before they can throw in a quick, quick pie.

[00:46:07] [SPEAKER_02]: And that is, I guess, impressive.

[00:46:10] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if it's impressive or not.

[00:46:12] [SPEAKER_02]: I have no idea whatsoever.

[00:46:13] [SPEAKER_02]: And then lastly, guys, if the business is going to close, if it's going to shut down,

[00:46:20] [SPEAKER_02]: first of all, sell your rings.

[00:46:22] [SPEAKER_02]: Don't give them back.

[00:46:24] [SPEAKER_02]: Those rings that you put down on the table look like white gold or platinum.

[00:46:28] [SPEAKER_02]: It looked like a pretty nice sized diamond.

[00:46:30] [SPEAKER_02]: You're in for five to 10 grand.

[00:46:31] [SPEAKER_02]: Probably a good start.

[00:46:33] [SPEAKER_02]: If you sold 115 tickets, I don't know how many they ended up with.

[00:46:37] [SPEAKER_02]: I know it's one point they had sold 115.

[00:46:39] [SPEAKER_02]: Did we have a final number?

[00:46:40] [SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was over 200, wasn't it?

[00:46:41] [SPEAKER_02]: Great.

[00:46:41] [SPEAKER_02]: They sold 200 tickets to a fall festival.

[00:46:44] [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, we honestly can't believe this costs more than $30.

[00:46:47] [SPEAKER_02]: It's a one night thing.

[00:46:50] [SPEAKER_02]: Let's, you know, six grand.

[00:46:52] [SPEAKER_02]: You got more for your rings than that.

[00:46:55] [SPEAKER_02]: Let's say it was 50.

[00:46:56] [SPEAKER_02]: Let's say it was $50 a ticket.

[00:46:59] [SPEAKER_02]: Your rings could have doubled the thing that saved you and allowed you to get a loan.

[00:47:06] [SPEAKER_02]: Your rings could have doubled that total.

[00:47:08] [SPEAKER_02]: And that is pure profit.

[00:47:10] [SPEAKER_02]: They had to pay money to put on the festival.

[00:47:13] [SPEAKER_02]: So they probably made two grand on that bad boy.

[00:47:15] [SPEAKER_02]: The rings are all profit.

[00:47:17] [SPEAKER_02]: Maybe hold on to those.

[00:47:19] [SPEAKER_02]: Maybe she kept them.

[00:47:20] [SPEAKER_03]: We didn't see what happened.

[00:47:21] [SPEAKER_02]: She slams them down and slides them over.

[00:47:22] [SPEAKER_02]: She put them in the middle of the table.

[00:47:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, slam and slide.

[00:47:25] [SPEAKER_03]: The lawyers might have, if they were smart.

[00:47:26] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a slam slide.

[00:47:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Look at what you're about to lose.

[00:47:30] [SPEAKER_03]: And then pick up the right back.

[00:47:31] [SPEAKER_02]: Come on back now.

[00:47:32] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

[00:47:32] [SPEAKER_02]: If you say so.

[00:47:34] [SPEAKER_03]: That's how I would have done it.

[00:47:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that's what I even hope.

[00:47:36] [SPEAKER_02]: Do you honestly believe that or are you just trying to defend the movie?

[00:47:37] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm trying, man.

[00:47:38] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, okay.

[00:47:39] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm just trying.

[00:47:39] [SPEAKER_02]: I appreciate that.

[00:47:40] [SPEAKER_03]: We never see him.

[00:47:41] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like you don't see, if you don't see a dead body, then you should assume they're still alive.

[00:47:45] [SPEAKER_03]: If you don't see the guy grab, if you don't see in movies, you don't realize that she,

[00:47:52] [SPEAKER_03]: in movies, if you don't see a dead body in a movie, then you assume they're still alive.

[00:47:56] [SPEAKER_03]: That's a real rule.

[00:47:57] [SPEAKER_03]: That's like the classic Marvel rule.

[00:47:58] [SPEAKER_03]: If you don't, not in real life, please don't go out hunting for dead bodies.

[00:48:02] [SPEAKER_03]: I was going to write that down, too.

[00:48:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Next, the electrical tip Dan gave.

[00:48:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, they come in one-to-one, actually, if you play the cards right.

[00:48:09] [SPEAKER_03]: If you don't see the groom grab the rings, then you should assume she keeps them.

[00:48:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:48:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:48:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Fair.

[00:48:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:48:16] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't write them.

[00:48:17] [SPEAKER_03]: You sure do.

[00:48:18] [SPEAKER_03]: It's time for what the hallmarks could have been.

[00:48:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Maybe it was a glitter.

[00:48:20] [SPEAKER_03]: We should have.

[00:48:21] [SPEAKER_03]: What are we still wondering?

[00:48:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Boy, howdy.

[00:48:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's find out.

[00:48:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Brian.

[00:48:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:48:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Candace, who is, she's the realtor.

[00:48:29] [SPEAKER_00]: We know her.

[00:48:29] [SPEAKER_00]: Yep.

[00:48:29] [SPEAKER_00]: And she's the wife of the bar owner.

[00:48:32] [SPEAKER_00]: We know her.

[00:48:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Wife of Jared.

[00:48:33] [SPEAKER_00]: We know Candace.

[00:48:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:48:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, yeah.

[00:48:35] [SPEAKER_00]: So she's a realtor and business is booming, is what Jared says.

[00:48:39] [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm just wondering whereabouts exactly, because everything is closed.

[00:48:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Or for lease, like, is she doing more residential?

[00:48:47] [SPEAKER_00]: Is she just selling?

[00:48:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Like, it's just weird to say business is booming and then every storefront they pass is up for

[00:48:53] [SPEAKER_00]: lease and closed.

[00:48:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:48:55] [SPEAKER_03]: It's not booming for the people in business, but, you know, I don't know.

[00:49:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Who can say?

[00:49:01] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[00:49:02] [SPEAKER_03]: The town seems like it's on the slowdown.

[00:49:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:49:04] [SPEAKER_03]: It's hard to say.

[00:49:05] [SPEAKER_03]: It is hard to say.

[00:49:07] [SPEAKER_03]: It's tough out there.

[00:49:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:49:08] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I do worry just about the terms of the bank.

[00:49:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:49:19] [SPEAKER_03]: You know, I worry about them.

[00:49:21] [SPEAKER_03]: And I was shocked.

[00:49:23] [SPEAKER_03]: You know, it's tough because for years we're like, Hallmark, you're going to stop having

[00:49:28] [SPEAKER_03]: the guy bail, bail the lady out and do all this stuff.

[00:49:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Women can do it.

[00:49:32] [SPEAKER_03]: And they can.

[00:49:33] [SPEAKER_03]: And they can.

[00:49:34] [SPEAKER_03]: But this is a very specific case that I feel like if he would have just been like, hey,

[00:49:41] [SPEAKER_03]: I want to go into business with you.

[00:49:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:49:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, there's so many things.

[00:49:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, it's literally what he does.

[00:49:46] [SPEAKER_03]: You know?

[00:49:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.

[00:49:47] [SPEAKER_03]: In the hotel world.

[00:49:48] [SPEAKER_03]: And like, hey, my mom has given me her blessing to go out and do my own thing.

[00:49:52] [SPEAKER_03]: I'd like to take what I've learned.

[00:49:55] [SPEAKER_03]: And I want to go into business with you.

[00:49:58] [SPEAKER_03]: I love this inn.

[00:49:59] [SPEAKER_03]: It was the perfect, perfect case for this guy to come back into town and to save her.

[00:50:08] [SPEAKER_03]: And they didn't do it.

[00:50:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:50:10] [SPEAKER_03]: And so those terms, you know, when I, you know, I don't know how banks work.

[00:50:17] [SPEAKER_03]: So in my mind, they have unlimited money and they can do with it what they want to.

[00:50:23] [SPEAKER_02]: And so when the stock markets crashed in 1929, the banks were like, don't worry, we've got

[00:50:27] [SPEAKER_02]: unlimited money.

[00:50:28] [SPEAKER_03]: That was my understanding.

[00:50:28] [SPEAKER_03]: And so I.

[00:50:30] [SPEAKER_03]: So gas works.

[00:50:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:50:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:50:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:50:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:50:32] [SPEAKER_03]: You just kind of hope for that.

[00:50:33] [SPEAKER_03]: And so I would like to think that the bank is going to be like, hey, you know, you did

[00:50:41] [SPEAKER_03]: really great with that party.

[00:50:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Pay it back when you can.

[00:50:44] [SPEAKER_03]: You know, those type of terms.

[00:50:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:50:46] [SPEAKER_03]: And so, yeah, I'm concerned about the terms.

[00:50:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Sure.

[00:50:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, I don't know a lot about banks.

[00:50:52] [SPEAKER_03]: I know it's typically not a good time.

[00:50:55] [SPEAKER_03]: You know a lot about banks.

[00:50:56] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[00:50:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Great.

[00:50:57] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know anything about banks.

[00:51:00] [SPEAKER_03]: And so that's kind of where I'm at.

[00:51:03] [SPEAKER_03]: So I know you, you, Dan, you said that my view on banks was privileged and I appreciate

[00:51:09] [SPEAKER_03]: that.

[00:51:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Thank you for saying that.

[00:51:10] [SPEAKER_03]: You're welcome.

[00:51:10] [SPEAKER_03]: That, though, is overestimating my knowledge of banks.

[00:51:14] [SPEAKER_03]: That's true.

[00:51:15] [SPEAKER_03]: And so I do want to.

[00:51:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Sometimes privilege is not having to know.

[00:51:17] [SPEAKER_03]: That's exactly right.

[00:51:18] [SPEAKER_03]: That's true.

[00:51:18] [SPEAKER_03]: That's exactly right.

[00:51:19] [SPEAKER_03]: 100%.

[00:51:20] [SPEAKER_03]: And I, boy, don't I not know.

[00:51:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Boy, don't you.

[00:51:22] [SPEAKER_03]: But I would, I am hopeful that this small town bank is going to do right by her.

[00:51:28] [SPEAKER_03]: On the up and up.

[00:51:29] [SPEAKER_03]: And we're going to hope for the best for it.

[00:51:33] [SPEAKER_03]: It just really, it really felt like he was going to come in, right?

[00:51:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.

[00:51:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Like when we found out that he's already invested in Jared's business, it really felt like him.

[00:51:41] [SPEAKER_02]: He went to Jared.

[00:51:41] [SPEAKER_02]: He went to Jared.

[00:51:42] [SPEAKER_02]: Went to Jared.

[00:51:44] [SPEAKER_02]: I want to know where the kids are going, where the kids are going to school.

[00:51:48] [SPEAKER_02]: I want to know how the school closed and they opened a new public school.

[00:51:53] [SPEAKER_02]: That happens.

[00:51:53] [SPEAKER_02]: I grew up in a town where Burns High School is a massive school and it combines.

[00:51:58] [SPEAKER_02]: It's a big town.

[00:51:59] [SPEAKER_02]: It's huge.

[00:51:59] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's a small town, but it combines four or five small towns.

[00:52:02] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:52:03] [SPEAKER_02]: One massive high school, one of the, like a 5A public school.

[00:52:06] [SPEAKER_02]: I want to know how it changed the commute for the kids.

[00:52:09] [SPEAKER_02]: Whenever this happens, it changes a lot.

[00:52:12] [SPEAKER_02]: It doesn't, it changes bus routes.

[00:52:13] [SPEAKER_02]: It changes teachers.

[00:52:15] [SPEAKER_02]: It changes occupations.

[00:52:16] [SPEAKER_02]: It's not just closing down a school.

[00:52:18] [SPEAKER_02]: It changes allocation of property tax money.

[00:52:20] [SPEAKER_02]: It changes a lot.

[00:52:21] [SPEAKER_02]: So I want to know all about that.

[00:52:23] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't, I know this movie is not going to tell you all about that because that wouldn't

[00:52:26] [SPEAKER_02]: make any sense.

[00:52:27] [SPEAKER_02]: I want to know all about it because I'm interested.

[00:52:29] [SPEAKER_03]: You know what's crazy though about this movie too is that I don't think like I thought

[00:52:33] [SPEAKER_03]: we were going to get close and maybe we did, but I didn't see it.

[00:52:36] [SPEAKER_03]: We didn't get closure on that hockey picture, right?

[00:52:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:52:40] [SPEAKER_03]: We did.

[00:52:40] [SPEAKER_00]: It was in the community center.

[00:52:43] [SPEAKER_00]: Thank God.

[00:52:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Thank God.

[00:52:45] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:52:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Because I was real good.

[00:52:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Listen, forget about the kids.

[00:52:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Absolutely.

[00:52:48] [SPEAKER_03]: What about the hockey picture?

[00:52:49] [SPEAKER_02]: Well, they said they, they didn't say that they, they, they got rid of the building.

[00:52:54] [SPEAKER_02]: They said they built a new school outside of town.

[00:52:57] [SPEAKER_02]: He says he walks by.

[00:52:59] [SPEAKER_02]: It's now a park.

[00:53:00] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:53:00] [SPEAKER_02]: They definitely got rid of it.

[00:53:01] [SPEAKER_02]: They did destroy it.

[00:53:02] [SPEAKER_02]: I know, but they didn't just do that and build a new building next door.

[00:53:05] [SPEAKER_02]: No, no, no, no.

[00:53:05] [SPEAKER_02]: They built a new building out of town.

[00:53:07] [SPEAKER_02]: That means there is no longer a public school in town and that changes things.

[00:53:10] [SPEAKER_02]: It just does.

[00:53:12] [SPEAKER_02]: And so I'm fascinated to what happens.

[00:53:14] [SPEAKER_03]: But again, it's less the hockey picture and the fact that, you know, it's in a community

[00:53:18] [SPEAKER_03]: center.

[00:53:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Where it's here.

[00:53:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, of course.

[00:53:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Forever.

[00:53:20] [SPEAKER_03]: It's time for Double I Go to a Week.

[00:53:21] [SPEAKER_03]: It's where we dive deep into the life of a double decker.

[00:53:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Brian, you, you know, it hasn't always been easy for you, especially over the past week

[00:53:30] [SPEAKER_03]: without the internet.

[00:53:30] [SPEAKER_03]: So I don't know how much time I've had.

[00:53:31] [SPEAKER_03]: It's tough and you came through last week.

[00:53:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:53:33] [SPEAKER_03]: And so hopefully you've been able to do the research.

[00:53:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:53:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Who do we have today?

[00:53:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Who do we have today?

[00:53:37] [SPEAKER_03]: We have Jody Barnes.

[00:53:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Jody Barnes.

[00:53:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:53:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Fema coming through in all sorts of ways.

[00:53:42] [SPEAKER_03]: You get this in the middle.

[00:53:43] [SPEAKER_03]: You got this double decker league from FEMA?

[00:53:46] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know, man.

[00:53:46] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[00:53:46] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:53:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Their machinery was helpful, I would say.

[00:53:49] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

[00:53:50] [SPEAKER_00]: Great.

[00:53:51] [SPEAKER_00]: So this, this double decker league.

[00:53:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Fema Plus.

[00:53:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:53:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Fema Plus.

[00:53:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Right.

[00:53:54] [SPEAKER_00]: Don't look it up.

[00:53:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Don't look it up.

[00:53:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Uh, Jody loves, uh, orange juice, especially with, with pulp.

[00:54:01] [SPEAKER_00]: I like orange.

[00:54:02] [SPEAKER_00]: That's where you lose me.

[00:54:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, we lost you.

[00:54:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, no.

[00:54:04] [SPEAKER_02]: Of course you don't like pulp.

[00:54:05] [SPEAKER_02]: That would make sense.

[00:54:05] [SPEAKER_02]: Do you like pulp?

[00:54:06] [SPEAKER_02]: I would choose pulp free, but I, if, if it's fresh squeezed orange juice with some pulp,

[00:54:11] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm down.

[00:54:11] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm in.

[00:54:12] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:54:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Judy, Jody, I'm sorry.

[00:54:14] [SPEAKER_00]: Jody, Judy.

[00:54:15] [SPEAKER_00]: It's Jody.

[00:54:16] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:54:16] [SPEAKER_02]: It is Jody.

[00:54:17] [SPEAKER_02]: Do you call her Judy?

[00:54:17] [SPEAKER_02]: Sometimes.

[00:54:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Well, for this case, yeah.

[00:54:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:54:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Judy, Jody says she loves pulp, extra pulp and got her thinking, uh, you know, there's a

[00:54:25] [SPEAKER_00]: big push on health foods and kind of alternative foods right now.

[00:54:28] [SPEAKER_00]: And so Jody was like, I'm going to jump in on this with this idea I have for adding pulp

[00:54:33] [SPEAKER_00]: to like other drinks that we might consume.

[00:54:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Uh, and she's really.

[00:54:38] [SPEAKER_00]: You're adding pulp to drinks that aren't juice.

[00:54:41] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:54:42] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh no.

[00:54:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:54:43] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, just to like for the benefit from oranges.

[00:54:45] [SPEAKER_00]: No, like whatever it is, just chunk it up a little bit.

[00:54:51] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, looking for really looking to get a celebrity endorser because just right in

[00:54:58] [SPEAKER_00]: the wave of like the health, the nutrition and Arnold Schwarzenegger, for example, big

[00:55:02] [SPEAKER_00]: health guy.

[00:55:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:55:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Gold's gym.

[00:55:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, of course.

[00:55:05] [SPEAKER_00]: He's also like mostly vegan.

[00:55:07] [SPEAKER_00]: So he's very on board with like a very healthy lifestyle.

[00:55:10] [SPEAKER_00]: What's it called, Bri?

[00:55:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Uh, it's called pulp you up.

[00:55:12] [SPEAKER_00]: And so really banking on this Arnie endorsement is what Jody's doing here.

[00:55:18] [SPEAKER_03]: And I understand we got a commercial.

[00:55:20] [SPEAKER_03]: We do.

[00:55:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Great.

[00:55:21] [SPEAKER_03]: I love that.

[00:55:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Hi, I'm Arnold Schwarzenegger.

[00:55:26] [SPEAKER_01]: You want a juice or do you just want the pulp goodness in a different drink?

[00:55:31] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm in a pulp.

[00:55:32] [SPEAKER_01]: You up.

[00:55:33] [SPEAKER_01]: So step right up.

[00:55:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Get you a soda.

[00:55:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Get you a water.

[00:55:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Get you a beer, a brewski, a liquor drink, a vodka drink.

[00:55:40] [SPEAKER_01]: I get knocked down.

[00:55:42] [SPEAKER_01]: But when I get up again, I hope you are.

[00:55:45] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm a slave for you.

[00:55:50] [SPEAKER_00]: If I cut it right before the last part.

[00:55:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Great.

[00:55:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Great.

[00:55:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:55:54] [SPEAKER_00]: The money's spent there.

[00:55:55] [SPEAKER_00]: I will say this.

[00:55:56] [SPEAKER_02]: I was worried they didn't actually get Arnie, but they got him.

[00:55:58] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:55:59] [SPEAKER_02]: It sounds like he's in.

[00:56:00] [SPEAKER_02]: That was, that was, that was him.

[00:56:01] [SPEAKER_02]: They didn't get the real Britney Spears song, which again, I don't understand the tie in

[00:56:04] [SPEAKER_03]: at all.

[00:56:05] [SPEAKER_02]: Can I tell you what it sounded like?

[00:56:06] [SPEAKER_02]: It sounded like you singing.

[00:56:07] [SPEAKER_02]: I know.

[00:56:08] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm a slave for you.

[00:56:09] [SPEAKER_02]: It did.

[00:56:09] [SPEAKER_02]: Like a little slower time.

[00:56:10] [SPEAKER_02]: It did.

[00:56:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe it was the tempo that made it sound different.

[00:56:14] [SPEAKER_00]: And to be clear, no.

[00:56:16] [SPEAKER_03]: No, you didn't have anything to do with Pulse View.

[00:56:18] [SPEAKER_03]: That's right.

[00:56:18] [SPEAKER_00]: You know I didn't, but.

[00:56:19] [SPEAKER_00]: That's right.

[00:56:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe Arnold's like a one celebrity thing.

[00:56:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Like he won't do it with other celebrities.

[00:56:25] [SPEAKER_00]: Rick?

[00:56:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Hello.

[00:56:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:56:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Rick, how are you about it?

[00:56:28] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm doing great.

[00:56:28] [SPEAKER_01]: How about you?

[00:56:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Was that you in that?

[00:56:30] [SPEAKER_01]: I just am glad to be here on the show.

[00:56:32] [SPEAKER_01]: I know you do a great.

[00:56:33] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't get to really come on anymore.

[00:56:34] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's very nice.

[00:56:35] [SPEAKER_01]: I know you do a great Arnie.

[00:56:37] [SPEAKER_01]: I do an amazing Arnold.

[00:56:38] [SPEAKER_01]: And I was, I'm proud to do my Arnold whatever.

[00:56:41] [SPEAKER_01]: And I would have loved to have booked that gig.

[00:56:42] [SPEAKER_01]: But I did not.

[00:56:43] [SPEAKER_01]: That's not you.

[00:56:43] [SPEAKER_01]: No, that was Arnie.

[00:56:44] [SPEAKER_01]: It was, I mean, you heard it.

[00:56:45] [SPEAKER_01]: It was clearly Arnie.

[00:56:46] [SPEAKER_01]: I wish it was me.

[00:56:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Could have used the cash flow.

[00:56:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Now that we've, now that we just heard some Arnie, do you mind like just doing maybe a little

[00:56:53] [SPEAKER_03]: I'll give you some butter.

[00:56:54] [SPEAKER_03]: You ready?

[00:56:54] [SPEAKER_03]: I'll close my, I'm ready.

[00:57:00] [SPEAKER_03]: That is crazy.

[00:57:01] [SPEAKER_03]: And you're saying that wasn't you.

[00:57:03] [SPEAKER_03]: No, it wasn't me.

[00:57:04] [SPEAKER_01]: No, it wasn't me.

[00:57:04] [SPEAKER_01]: I love, I do some Arnie voice work.

[00:57:07] [SPEAKER_01]: I do.

[00:57:07] [SPEAKER_01]: He's going to be in Toy Story 5.

[00:57:09] [SPEAKER_01]: I do his voice.

[00:57:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Wait a second.

[00:57:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Is he real?

[00:57:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.

[00:57:14] [SPEAKER_01]: He's going to be blast off.

[00:57:15] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a rocket.

[00:57:16] [SPEAKER_01]: It goes to the moon and back.

[00:57:17] [SPEAKER_01]: I wonder what he says.

[00:57:19] [SPEAKER_01]: What does he say?

[00:57:19] [SPEAKER_01]: He says all kinds of stuff.

[00:57:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Like what?

[00:57:21] [SPEAKER_01]: He's got several catchphrases.

[00:57:24] [SPEAKER_01]: I can't give them away right now.

[00:57:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Give me one.

[00:57:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Give me one.

[00:57:28] [SPEAKER_01]: To the moon with you, cowboy.

[00:57:31] [SPEAKER_01]: It just keeps going.

[00:57:32] [SPEAKER_03]: I thought it was going to be something about pants.

[00:57:36] [SPEAKER_03]: That's on me.

[00:57:37] [SPEAKER_03]: I thought it may be a phrase.

[00:57:38] [SPEAKER_03]: No, why would he tell you?

[00:57:39] [SPEAKER_03]: He's a rise of spaceship, Brad.

[00:57:41] [SPEAKER_01]: That's one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.

[00:57:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Are you kidding me right now?

[00:57:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, Rick's right here.
