Cletus, I had one shirt I wired you good money on Western Union And then my people said They said I see seven shirts in the bag I had people that said there's seven shirts in the bag I said he can't go He thinks it's a hoot-toed nanny Who are your people, Cletus? And how are they aware of my packing habits? Let's get.. We're getting off track now You think it's a hoot-toed nanny And it's not a hoot-toed nanny

We have a week to figure this out, Cletus Should I just pay for my own ticket? Yeah, I'll say this Listen, if you can't trust somebody wiring Western Union money to not bring more than three shirts, then there's a problem It's just very specific Cletus, can we talk about this offline maybe?

I'm gonna get It certainly sounded ominous I would say at the very least it sounded ominous But I From the time that Brand said Cletus Last week I knew that there could be some complications Sure Based purely upon

Let's go! Woo! He makes his homemade hot chocolate Right? And she goes to put marshmallows in it And he seems like What?

[00:09:05] And then he tries it He like dips a little marshmallow in the hot chocolate and tries it Has he never had marshmallows in hot chocolate before? It's the dumbest scene in this movie Has he not? Is that your takeaway? Was it he's never had? Yeah First of all I know what... Oh, you're upset? Let me tell you what will help you My grandfather's hot chocolate recipe that I've happened to already make Right Because he didn't make it So, really caught a break there Hot summer night in France Yeah He had happened to boil up Some of his grandfathers

[00:09:35] Who made hot chocolate for those cold summer Parisian nights He had already... He already had it And then she was sad It's like this is perfect And then it's a perfect recipe Of course It's the best recipe And then she says Well, we gotta add marshmallows He barely protests And then he acts as though To brands white what? This is revolution This is unbelievable What is this? A marshmallow? What do you call this again? Why aren't more people doing this? This is crazy

[00:10:04] And you can put more than one in? This is ridiculous So... And then he gets really angry Are you... There's a ghost Nothing happened There's a ghost We're good There's a ghost that actually Is haunted already in the studio

[00:10:20] I didn't know about that There is one bird at this villa Oh no There is one bird

[00:10:50] And I would actually go further to say This bird Somebody give him or her a break They're getting a workout for the ages Because they play the same sound of this one bird Whenever anyone is doing anything in the villa It's not a different bird It's one bird making one distinct sound It's a ghost that's a different sound On a loop Whenever someone is quietly at the villa And... It's comforting I would not have noticed this Before a thousand of these movies

[00:11:19] But now it is... Like the editor was like Just put it in again Hit it again It's his favorite bird Let the bird go one more time It's the best bird The birds run high And allegations arise When a guest is found dead Oh boy On Mystery Island Stop going to this island Stop it Stop it

So now it's just a nice house Which you can rent out For 9,000 bucks But they're still there Corporate retreat Different And they're still a murder

[00:12:18] So it is still Mystery Island They tried to make it Something new They tried to make it A corporate retreat island And then it still became Mystery Island Maybe this is a What's it called? The pre What about the next corporate retreat? They're like Hey, we're going We're taking you to this island And they're like What's in the island? Don't worry about it It's fine It's totally fine The Queens of Christmas May 30th, 2025 This guy is trying to romance His wife On a weekday At 2 in the afternoon

[00:30:28] Only one of you Spelled coincidence right I want to be clear about that Brand was really close though He was Let's get If you just I think you risk People are going to Clock him Just taking all this Ice outside Yes Throwing it away To the back door And slip Home Alone style Home Alone style There's a lot of risk Just say you got to run To the gas station Just say you got to run To the store real quick Talk about mission impossible Seems like You seem like you did A lot of work

[00:30:58] A lot of work For potentially Lawsuit It's good ice too Potentially lawsuit People don't talk about that Can you imagine He saves the day The world is saved He gets home And then somebody gives him A subpoena To go to court He had so much ice By the back door Judge Geno's Personal injury court He slipped on ice I didn't mean to No you're Ethan Hunt Do you feel bad That's the Paramount Plus show Yeah Do you feel bad About throwing the ice Out the back door Yeah Do you have any regret Mr. Hunt You can understand

[00:31:26] How someone wouldn't expect ice When they walk out To leave a property Now you might think That this lawsuit Sounds ridiculous Check out Yo Gavel Gavel Yo Gavel Gavel There's more where that came from There's so much more Where that came from He literally says It's unfair to say That chocolate makes you fat And I've eaten my fair share And guess what That's it That's the whole line That's it That's the start to finish Lawrence Fishburne Just dead Just goes It's unfair to say

[00:31:55] Chocolate makes you fat And I've eaten my fair share And guess what What are we supposed to say there You're fat That's the thing Like I wouldn't say That he's large I don't think so I don't think so I wouldn't say that he's skinny Either Like I wouldn't say Like I don't know If he's trying to say Look at me I've eaten a lot of chocolate And I haven't gotten fat Is it possible Oh sorry Dan Is it possible That he wants Ethan To actually guess That would be great No sir You are not Chocolate doesn't make you fat

[01:26:40] After they're about to kiss. And she says this line. I want to stay and see how this ends. Yeah, it was weird. And he says, all right, deucing out. Thinking that she's talking about the movie. Brother. Come on, man. You are so dumb. And it's not like I'm like Mr. Romance over here. But if you almost kiss somebody and then they say, I want to stay and see where this ends or how it ends.

[01:27:10] What are you doing? Don't go dance. Oh, don't go dance. Don't go dance. You taking notes over here? Yeah, that makes sense. That makes that clears up. I want to stay and see. The most scenic and this. I don't think anyone would question this. The most scenic part of Peru is a place called Rainbow Mountain. Google some pictures. It is unbelievable. This movie theme song. This movie has rainbow mountain.

[01:27:38] Come and see the rainbows. Rainbow mountain. See the mountains and the rainbows. And now in Spanish. Rainbow mountain. See. Montagna? Montagna. Oh, rainbow montagna. See you, see you, see you, see you. Azul. Hola. Roja. Oh, I'm good. You wouldn't be blue than red.

[01:28:09] Colors of the rainbow. Oranja. Primary colors. Naranja. See, that's not in there. Orange is in the rainbow. Is it? Or yeah, it is. Orange is in there. You're still getting back at it. I'm sorry. I'll get there. If you're a little fun. Yeah. Ranking every 2025 Hallmark movie quarter to July 2nd, 2025. You got any July 4th plans? Me? Yeah. I mean, kids are off of school. It's a Friday. Yes, I know. Probably throw some stuff on the grill. Yeah.

[01:28:38] I got a new set. I'm going to try to smoke a brisket again. Well, you are. I've never. It's one thing I can't crack on my smoker. I'm going to try it again. All right. I'm giving it. I got another idea that I've been watching videos. I got another idea. I'm very excited about it. You want to share? I'm not going to share it here. Do you want me to do a vlog for it? I would like for you. I'd like for you to do a vlog. And I want the vlog to end with you handing me a piece over the fence. Over the fence. Yeah, yeah. But that means you got to come help me do it. You got to record some. If you want a piece of your fence at the end. I am free. I'm free through early afternoon. Free through early afternoon. I'm free all day. Okay.

[01:29:09] All right. Well, that's going to make it tough. I'm going to need to start it tomorrow. July 3rd. Yeah. And then we can. And then you can hand it to me over the fence in the morning on July 4th. Yeah. I don't think you quite understand how the brisket works, but that's okay. It's fine. How long will it take? It's fine. It depends on how big the brisket is. Okay. But I'm going to go real. I'm going to go. We're going to smoke it overnight without touching. We're going to smoke it overnight. So you are going to start it tomorrow. We're going to smoke it overnight without touching it. So that means I'm not going to start it at about 10, 1030 at night. On July 3rd. Brad, don't steal that brisket.

[01:29:39] I didn't say I was doing it on July 3rd. At some point. I might do it this week. Well, I asked you what you're doing on the 4th of July. You said I might smoke a brisket. Yeah. You said you have to have any 4th plans. And on the actual 4th, I don't think I'm smoking a brisket. I want to be clear. How did we get that? All of us thought we were having brisket on the 4th, right? We sure did. We all thought we were having brisket on the 4th. Now we're all going to go hungry. Hey, maybe I'll do it then. Okay. Maybe I'll do it then. I don't know how you hear that and then go, I'm going to ignore it. You're right. You're right.

[01:30:09] I was wrong on that. Now we're hungry. Yeah. The cake comes out great. It smells delicious. I'm in. I'm making the frosting and the recipe says 4 cups of powdered sugar, 4 cups of milk, and then like a teaspoon of vanilla. Are you making like a giant cake? I reread this recipe like 6 times because I said there's no way. And I made it.

[01:30:36] And it's just a big bowl of frosting soup, which I talked to Brian. I said, Brian last night and I said, hey, are you sure these measurements are correct? Because it just looks like soup. And I said, you know, maybe it's still warm because, you know, I melted the chocolate. So the chocolate wasn't warm. So I said, oh, you know, maybe it just needs to cool off. And if it doesn't, maybe Bran is just going to get a bowl of frosting soup. Oh, shucks. Couldn't this day get any better? I know. I know, right?

[01:31:06] And then I woke up this morning and I Googled the cookbook that the recipe came from. It was available as a download from the library. So I downloaded it, read the recipe. Shout out. It's a fourth cup of powdered sugar and three-fourths cup milk. Math is tough, man. It's hard. Numbers are difficult. And I immediately texted Brian and was like, you dum-dum. If you put a line over the top of one number and put another number over the top of that line. What happened?

[01:31:35] It doesn't mean three to four cups. You know, it means three-fourths of our cup. First, what happened, first of all. He outsourced. Yes, it's my fault. He outsourced to AI. Second, what happened is I got pictures. I had pictures of this recipe that I transcribed to text. Do not say that you used AI on a Dave White cake. I used a photo to text transcription. It's not generative AI. I don't deal with that nonsense. This is something where it just takes the picture. It's not generative.

[01:32:04] No, it's not. It's transcribing very above board. And what happened was I would go through the recipe and make sure it's correct. I didn't have time yet to compare. Dude, why are you so busy? You can't possibly. I don't have time. I don't have time to bake the cake. I don't have time to make sure the recipe's right. I don't have time to write it myself. I have AI transcribed it for me. I messed up sending it to Aaron. I'm just here. I don't have time to do anything. I messed up. I should have said to Aaron. I didn't check it. I got a sprint from the car dealership back to my house. So I caught those things this morning.

[01:32:34] That was for fun, Dan. And that was in confidence. I remade the icing. Here, there's your cake. So where's the soup? You asked him 45 minutes ago. When do I get some mainline frosting soup? When does that happen? All right. Yeah. And then, so like, did you discard the frosting soup? Yeah. Just really, anything about the location of the frosting soup. I did discard the frosting soup. You can go, like, dive into the trash.

[01:33:04] So it's still around. It's in the disposal. Oh, that's tough to get back. That's real tough. Yeah. After sitting all night in the fridge, it was still just straight liquid. So no, I wasn't putting it in the trash. It was just like water. This is not helping. Weird for you to call me the trash, but. Okay. Let's get back to it. Okay. I can remake it. I can remake the frosting soup. That's okay. Don't. I have a recipe.

[01:33:36] Go ahead. Can we just cross our fingers that Q3 will give us some really good movies? I think Q3 is going to be really good. Except Q3 ranking. Starting off real strong in July with a bunch of new movies. In August and September, we're going to have like seven movies. I don't really know much about this. And you could maybe Google it, Aaron. I will. August is a trilogy called Providence Falls. Uh-oh. Oh, I have heard of that. We have so many series that we're trying to keep together. Providence Falls. I don't know. I don't know what we're going to do.

[01:34:06] All right. Aaron, give us the rundown of. And just, we're going to look up Providence Falls. Hallmark. It is a book series. It's based off of a thing. Oh, it's in the 1800s. Oh, no. Hallmark Media. We'll say this is a mini preview show. Original three-part special event adaptation. We can't do a preview of the preview episode. I don't know. Shut it down. We didn't get a preview. No. We didn't get a preview show. Absolutely not. We'll do a preview show. For August.

[01:34:36] For that. Yeah, but this is for Q3. Q3. Memorandum. Memorandum. Memorandum. Mission Impossible 7, July 7th, 2025. Happy birthday. Ryan, I understand that you had maybe a bit of a scare with Cletus over 4th of July weekend. I don't have all the details, but can you kind of fill in the gaps for me? Totally. Well, sorry. I don't have my calendar in front of me. What day are we recording this?

[01:35:05] What today? It's after July 8th. Read a book. Yes. It's the 8th. It's the 7th. Yeah. It's the 7th. Looking at the calendar. So I came down. You guys don't even know this. Brain, I guess you were reading the trades. I came. I was in Greenville on the 3rd. I made it to Greenville. I'm not going to tell you how because I don't want Cletus to be aware. But I was in Greenville on the 3rd.

[01:35:32] And so I went to Planet Comics in Greenville, South Carolina. They have a Power Rangers Hyperforce that I was looking for. And Cletus was at checkout. He was behind the register. Oh, he's running the register? No, Bran, I don't think he is. And so I didn't even text you guys. I promptly found my way back to Connecticut. Hold on. So you got here days early.

[01:36:01] Yeah, I was going to make a little vacation out of it. Now, granted, this was ill-advised because I'm going to be back. Let me tell you right now. First of all, that was a mask. Mission Impossible. We're on theme. That was my buddy Trip. And Trip. Oh, so it was one of your people. It was my buddy Trip. And he wore a mask. He wore a Cletus mask that we had done. Cletus, real quick, Cletus. I need to tell you one thing. First of all, you lied about your Toby Keith fandom. And that's been bothering me for a long time. I can say on the record I did lie about my Toby Keith fandom. You're a liar.

[01:36:30] Nothing would make Ryan happier than to make it known. You don't like Toby Keith. You love him. Cletus, could you understand how... You don't like the Dixie chicks, do you? You don't like them, do you? They're just the chicks now, Cletus. They're always Dixie for me, you know what I mean? I, I, I, would you understand how from my POV, you admitting that your friend Trip has a mask would make me think that the gentleman in the halo costume... It's just a mask among friends. You and your friends don't share...

[01:37:00] The gentleman in the halo costumes were... You and your friends don't share masks. You and your friends don't share masks, right? Is you too good? Are you Yankee folk too good for a friend mask share? Brandon and I have shared a mask once in a while. Okay. All right. The truth comes out... After he spit the water at me at the marathon, that led to a whole cavalcade of issues. The truth comes out, how you like me now. But can I ask you this, Cletus? If you don't mind, hi, how are you? How you doing, big guy? Good to see your buddy. Yeah. So, did you send your buddy, what was it, Ted? Trip.

[01:37:29] Trip, sorry. He's Ted III, though. That's a very good guess. That's why he's called Trip. Called Trip just to even it out. It's a triple. Can't be Ted Jr., that's Jr. Did you purposely send Trip down to Greenville with your mask? No, Trip works there. Okay. He works there anyway. And he was just wearing your mask. He's a resident of Greenville. I looked through my Rolodex and my buddy, Trip, I knew this guy loves... Two things about Ryan we know. He loves the Power Rangers. He loves Toby King. Yes. And so we don't wear him. At very least in that order, yeah.

[01:37:59] As soon as he... Shirts changed. As soon as he decided to get on a bus to get down to Greenville, I said... How do you know I took a bus? Is that true? Is it a bus? Listen, I don't even want to... Well, it is true. And again, I think this paints a rather negative picture of Cletus. But you guys don't seem to care. Dan doesn't even make a key. Your second lie was you don't friend Mass Share. And I knew that was true. We all friend Mass Share. What was that one? Toby Keith song, Born on the Fourth of July? What was that? That's a Tom Cruise movie.

[01:38:29] A perfect segue there, Breno. Thank you, Cletus. You're welcome. All right. Y'all have fun now. Mission Impossible. Oh, thanks, Cletus. It's really nice coming from you. Oh, that was encouraging. It was. It was an encouraging thing, Cletus. Dan, how are you, buddy? I'm all right, man. I'm here for being here. Yeah. Sorry. I wanted to do burgers and dogs and the whole nine, and then I was just going to stay. I might have just stayed through Bramble Fest, which is like any day now. It is any day. Yeah, it is. It's coming up. Are you guys feeling all right with the stress of Bramble Fest?

[01:38:57] You will actually be in town next week for Bramble Fest. God willing. Yeah. After you found out that Cletus had a friend in Greenville wearing a Cletus mask? Yeah. Yeah. If you're going to come back down here, that's bold. Dan, have you met Cletus? No. I don't know anything about him. I don't know. You're getting video and you're in. What does he look like? I can't get into it. I can't. I've been sworn to secrecy. I was surprised if you knew what he looked like, though.

[01:39:26] Yeah, you saw him in the store and immediately clocked him as Cletus. The guys, when I ran into the Halo gentleman at LaGuardia, they all had a little picture of Cletus in their wallet. They all had a little. So you ran into. Hey, Cletus, is that true? Well, you got to carry at least a wallet size. I prefer a five by nine folded, but you got to carry a wallet. I send glossies, though. You know, I want them to make sure they have good options. When am I getting a glossie? Just wait your turn. That's what I'm saying. Just wait your turn. Okay, great. That's right. All right.

[01:39:55] You don't ask questions. Hey, Dan, this is Cletus. Hey, man, what's going on? Dan, I've heard good things. You seem like a good old boy. You know what I mean? Cletus, I don't really share your affinity for Toby Keith. Yeah. And it's a little disconcerting. Neither do I, for the record. Yeah. Well, now you're disconcerting. I don't know that. I bet Ryan can even spell that. Ryan? D-I-S? Oh, boy. D-I-S? C-O-N-C-E-R-T-I-N-G. Oh, he looked out another one. Look at that.

[01:40:25] Mission Impossible 7, Dead Reckoning. Horseshoe's hand grenades and Raga. Part one. I don't even know what that means, Cletus. I don't even know what that means. Those two things are almost. He got it right. You wouldn't get it. Cletus, I'll see you later tonight. Only one of us here went to Oxford, so you guys can just back that up. You'll see it later tonight? What does that mean? Well, I'm going to have to go back to the comp. I'm taking the red eye. I need that power. Oh, you're coming back, huh? You think you're coming back to town? All right. We'll see about that. Randy, do you take that as a threat?

[01:40:54] You're an objective third party here. It did sound a... No, Cletus doesn't have a threatening bone in his body. I don't know what the big deal is with you guys. He seems like a good guy to me. Yeah. That's right. You get it. Yeah. He's just a good old boy from Mississippi. That's right. Good old boy from Jackson. Ain't nothing wrong with that. Tell me something wrong with Jackson. I won't. Yeah, that's right. You couldn't. I won't. You want to talk about Vicksburg, you go ahead. Where did you get your money? I went to Oxford. I told you that. Oxford, Mississippi robbed a bank. Oxford, Mississippi.

[01:41:25] Five, this is a guy that wants to wipe out portions of the planets to reset the balance of who's in charge. Six, this is where that plan comes to fruition and three giant cities are about to have a full wipeout. It's like Thanos. Seven. Why about this? Nicely done. You've been working really hard on that. And that's really, really good. Thank you. I mean, you're just like when we when they do the cover, you're going to be ready for your moment. I'm ready. Yeah. So proud. You want to get one more? Why about this?

[01:41:55] It doesn't sound anything like it, but I think it's going to be insane. Well, that's what you don't want to cover to be exactly the same. So seven ups the ante from from Christmas Incorporated, July 8th, 2025. Hi, everyone. Okay. Yeah. How are we? I was just going to say, Brian, that we're now officially in year eight of this podcast podcast, and I just it's just feels great to do it. But then I heard that voice. And I thought, maybe we should shut it down. Maybe not. Well, don't let that. Maybe we should shut it down.

[01:42:25] Don't let that sway you. Hard not. Let's talk about. Man, it's good to be back. You know, it's good to be back. It's a safe space. Brian loves white people. I love all people, first of all. But all lives matter. Specifically, I love 20. You don't see color. Specifically, I love 2015 Hallmark movies. Wonderful. It's so nice.

[01:42:53] It's so nice to just be able to just turn it on and just be like, I know in my heart of hearts that this isn't very good. And I there is not a single part of me that could care less. That's how little I care about it, because it's so wonderful. It makes me feel so good. It is funny. It is sweet. It is nice to look at. The points don't matter.

[01:43:22] And I live for it. I live for 2015 Hallmark. And it's just, you know, we get these a few times a year. We get to go back in time in the time machine and enjoy this. And it's just always so nice. Yeah. Please. Let's do this. Vote for Brad. Let's do this. We can do it. If you elect me. If we work together, we can do it.

[01:43:49] Make movies just a skosh worse again. Right. Like I we've we've like they've made the Hallmarks makes better movies now. And I'm not sure that we're better for it. Dan, we are 100 percent better for it because this movie is terrible. Hallmark Christmas at sea. Merry Christmas. July 9th, 2025. Back to the veneer family. Dan, the Mama Carrie. I'm less Mama. Mama.

[01:44:18] I want to just I want you to look at me for a second. I'm sorry. OK, I'm supposed to be doing art, but whatever. Carrie. You're going to believe what I've come up with here. Carrie says, I am happily married. I know that Wes Brown is happily married, but I have been given a hall pass on this cruise. If Wes is interested, she calls it her Hallmark pass. Mama Carrie. Mama Carrie. The inspiration of these two ladies. She's willing to take the top bunk.

[01:44:48] She's also willing to take Wes Brown up there. Up there on the top bunk. They talk about hall passes. And I don't know if like Hallmark just didn't know. This is the problem right here. This is the problem. Listen, Mama Carrie. Nobody cares if you have a hall pass. Wes Brown doesn't have a Mama Carrie hall pass. Yeah. It's not even crossed his mind. No. Surely they're not going to meet and she's not going to bring it up, though. She couldn't.

[01:45:15] But then Wes Brown walks in. Oh, and I don't know if you remember, Dan, but that's Mama Carrie's hall pass or Hallmark pass. And her Hallstar pass is what she calls it. And we've done three different things now. Right. Jonathan Bennett walks up to them naturally with Wes Brown. And Paige is just like, hey, Wes, I've been told to call you stepdad. What?

[01:45:43] Wes is so cool about it. He's like, yeah. Hallmark's airing this? I know. It happens all the time. Not my Hallmark. No. And Jonathan Bennett is there and Paige is like, hey, could you help give Tyler Hines my number? And Jonathan Bennett's like, ever the wingman is like, yeah, of course I can do that. He's not going to say no. And I got to be honest, of all the storylines so far, weirdly invested in this. Stop it. With Mama Carrie? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. This is why they're airing us for nutters like you.

[01:46:13] Okay. And let's show the people what you have worked on today for your art therapy. I feel so comfortable in every situation. But I couldn't be more proud of what I've come up with here. And I want to be very clear. Everyone got off the boat. Everyone got off the boat. Everyone got off the boat. Well, I haven't finished the series yet. Everyone in my drawing got off the boat.

[01:46:47] This is a boat crash. Philo.tv. The SS Hall Pass. The SS Hall Pass. If you can see it right there. Yeah. It is an SS, which I think means it's in the armed services. That's right. And I don't want to talk about budget or any of that. You can find it on that. We'll post a picture on social media. In looking at it in the camera, I'm most proud of my sunshine over here. My sunshine. And that the flag still flies. The crown flag, which is not the same crown.

[01:47:17] I'm just saying it's the SS Hall Pass is what it is. That's what it is. There we go. Float me a pen or a Sharpie. I'm going to sign it. It's a one of one. Son of me. That's right. Look, I'm signing it. Signing it right now. Right in the corner. I got to be honest, Dan. Beautiful work. I would say that's four out of five. You better watch out July 10th, 2025. So Vivian sees Finn and Aubrey talking.

[01:47:46] And it's like, oh, hey, guys, let's go get something to eat. We're going to be here all night. Have you tried the Christmas burger? It's to die for. The Christmas burger. Yeah, that's all we get on it. You don't get anything else? No, it's like, have you ever tried it? You don't even really see it. No. You don't even really see it. What do you think of it? They just say, I don't know. Kind of like, I can't. It's got to have lettuce and tomato.

[01:48:09] Or red and green hatch green chili peppers with pepper jack cheese and crushed up peppermint. Boo. Let's just brainstorm. Let's not. Sure. I think I got it. Pepper jack and peppermint. No, peppermint. Maybe it's a lamb burger. Lamb and mint go well together, right? Okay, sure. Yeah. Lamb because Jesus. Yeah. Like, I bet there was one of them. Sure. Lamb, goat cheese, mint.

[01:48:39] Yep. I'm back in with lamb and mint. I'm back in. Peppermint. I'm not yet. Mary had a little lamb. Right. Maybe there's like a shoestring potato fries. It's like hay. Oh, that's good. Oh, I see what you're doing. Yeah. We're doing burgers. Jesus. Right in the middle of that. Hey, I don't. Sure. Yeah. Away in a manger burger. Yeah. That's not bad. Okay. Let us know in the comments.

[01:49:10] Right. Um, the burger is not a, but they do mention the Christmas burger multiple times. They do mention the Christmas burger. Christmas burger. You mentioned it multiple times. You got to cook it. You got to cook it. A good pepper jack cheese would do that. There's like some red and green in there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. A fireman for Christmas, July 11th, 2025. Um, the bride says, I can't wait to go to Cancun two whole weeks of no wedding planning. What?

[01:49:39] First of all, you're not planning this way. Second of all, isn't it a lifetime of no wedding planning? When you, when you get back, you're, you're, you're done. You don't have any. And unless I need to break this to you, unless you had a big change of career, you're not a wedding planner. I think that you're in the clear here, lady. I think you're good for you're set for life. You don't have to have to do it again.

[01:50:10] Um, you mentioned it in the, uh, synopsis. I can't believe it got back to me. Uh, this woman's previous boyfriend broke up with her on Christmas Eve in a church. In a church service in between two Christmas carols. Maybe he was handing her the collection plate and said, by the way, we're through. This is the sleep in heavenly peace.

[01:50:40] We're breaking up. We're breaking up. George is a world. This is. I'm done with you. This is the Bob. We add a baby. It's a boy. That's what this is. That's what this is. Sleep in heavenly peace. Just like our relationship. It's done though. Number 500. We're through joy. To. I couldn't believe what was happening there. Oh, wow. You think her boyfriend's leading.

[01:51:09] You think he's the worst pastor. He's on stage. Diana, we're through joy. To the world. Pete rocks and yell. I'm done with this. Mission Impossible 8, July 14th, 2025. I don't know. I don't know what Cletus has on his mind. Not much these days. I can tell you that right now. I'm glad this whole saga is over. Are you going to. This was also a saga. Like the past. Oh, it's a saga. All right.

[01:51:37] Between the shirts and the Toad nanny and the Toby Keith and all of it. I don't even know what to do with you. I remember the sea urchins. Remember Halo? That was a left turn, wasn't it? Remember Halo? No, I remember the Halo, the game. You got it. You got it, dude. A lot of left turns when you're around at home. Am I right? You got it. Is there anything that we should be concerned about with him coming to Bramblefest? No, I don't think I'm going there. That doesn't sound like fun at all. So you were only here for Mission Impossible. That's all you care about. Well, I wanted to fly all around. I got down. I thought he was a good old boy, but he's not.

[01:52:06] And that's a problem. So wait, does that come back to the root of the issue? Is that why the initial money wasn't wired? Because you don't think I am a quote, good old boy? I think I'm going to start a cash cab. The TV show? Like the game show? Yeah, I'm going to start. I'm going to do a new one. But it's a cash cab. Are you the host? Yeah, of course. No, I'm the host. Of course I'm the host. Pete Weber, the bowler, would never. Does it have, like, is there some sort of, I don't know, like, bit? Well, I don't know. Like, what do you mean?

[01:52:35] I think that's maybe a better use of my money than throwing good money after bad money when it comes to this guy and his 800 t-shirts and jerseys. Well, I lost way more on this thing than you did, Cletus. No, you didn't. That's on your own. That's correct. You are. I'm not dealing with you boys anymore. I'm going to start the cash cab, and I think it's going to go great. He's going to start the cash cab. I'm going to start the cash cab. It's been too long. It's been really nice knowing you. Good to see you. God bless.

[01:53:07] This is the single greatest, wait, what, in the history of this franchise. I think we just covered it. Well, yes, but for reasons that I don't know, when Tom Cruise, he lives, he is greeted by Briggs. Briggs holds out his gun, flips it around, gives him a handshake, and then they do this. You ready? Handshake. And then they freeze. You think it's going to be over.

[01:53:36] And then they go, boom. And then they dap it up. And then they dap it up. But I... What? I honestly laughed out loud. We both did. It is the whitest moment in the history of cinema. It's so funny. And then also, to me, I thought it was very passive-aggressive that Ethan gives him a pat on the back and then just walks past him. And Homeboy just still stands there for like three seconds. It's the whitest moment in the history of cinema.

[01:54:05] The whole sequence, the gun, the flip around, the handshake, the attaboy, the whole thing was ridiculous. Well, they shake hands and it's like, all right, I get it. Look, I forgive you for my dads. And then it's like, are we doing a handshake? Like we're doing multiple steps of a handshake? Let's add some stuff. What are we doing? There was a brief moment I was worried that was the end of the film. And it's like, bump, bump, bump. It was the single funniest thing that's ever happened in this franchise. It was amazing.

[01:54:35] Catch a Christmas Star, July 15th, 2025. This is not good. It's not a good movie, but it is a good time. It's a good time. And here's my thing is I saw this guy. And at first I thought it was Mark Paul Gosler, Saved by the Bell. That would have been good. And then all I wanted was Tiffany Amber to be in it with him. Saved by the Crystal Bell. Can you imagine? Can you imagine that? That would have been. I would have screeched. I would have screeched.

[01:55:04] I would have screeched as well. We would have. Can we say that? Like. Jingle Belding. I never have liked Christmas, Hallmark Christmas movies, but that would have just been a clean slider. Yeah. To go along with the theme, we would call it Jingle Belding. And it would be a Saved by the Bell. That's right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Saved by the Christmas bell. Okay. Take it away, Chad. You got a live commercial? Yes, everybody. Check out Bramble Jam Studios this weekend in Greenville, South Carolina. We've got Bramble Fest coming up.

Sell it to us? Oh, sure. You got it. Oh, this actually works out perfectly, guys. You know, sometimes you're looking to have a mug. And not just a mug.

[01:56:04] Everybody has a mug when we're talking about utility. But when we're talking about features and benefits, what are we really looking for? What are we trying to evoke from our morning coffee? Escapism? A vacation? Something that brings it home. It's cozy. It's an instant vacation in a cup. And that's where you get the Christmas Cousins pod. Hashtag Yolta Yantas. Bring it on home, everybody. This can be yours for only three easy payments. Send your money to DTH.com. And now back to our movie, the new Rudolph the Scarfaced Reindeer we're talking about. Back to you, gentlemen.

You won't get a mug, but send us some money. Send us a month. And that was hashtag Yoletide Yantas? Yeah, it's a Yiddish term. You don't speak Yiddish, Dan? Yanta is female, though, right? No, Yanta is anyone who's just kind of gossipy and talking a lot. Okay, great. Got it. I thought you guys were on the hunt for some Yoletide Yantas. Yeah.

[01:56:59] Hallmark at sea, docking around the Christmas tree, July 16th, 2025. And what they decided to do, instead of give you an interactive look at all the doings of the cruise, they introduced you to five exceedingly horny groups of people. Let's rate them by horniness. Now, as the Veneer family, obviously, they're one.

[01:57:29] I think Rob's up there, probably, is number two. Nate and his grandmas are last. Yes, for sure. Three, four? Yeah, they're like the Alice and what's-her-name. Alice and what's-her-name. Alice and what's-her-name. They are horny for, well, she's horny for adventure. She's horny for adventure. And then they're like, we're going to find out. They're horny for something. We'll find out about it this episode. Wow, stay till one of tees. We'll be right back here on deck. Nope.

[01:58:01] Jacked Rob and Donna, they get drinks with Carrie and her daughters. I don't know how they know each other. Maybe I missed it. I don't think they're friends in real life. I think they're just like on the show. It's one of those things, you know? Got it. When you're on the show. When you're on the show. And you get to- Yes. Just imagine yourself. And you got Jacked Rob, right? Jacked Rob and Donna in the veneer family. Yeah. Just hanging out. Right?

[01:58:31] Man, there's some polyamory happening there. I didn't say that. That's not what I was getting at. Oh, no. Are you ready? I'm ready. I'm ready. So this is a tree in a cemetery where I have died from the Hallmark Cruise. And we had carved Brandon Dan in the tree. And then it's been X'd out. Oh, are you mad about your heart? With a frowny face. Are you mad about your heart? My heart was crooked AF. Look at that heart.

[01:59:00] Oh, my gosh. You got a nice flower down there in the corner. One of them's not. Really nice. I don't think either of them are nice. But it says, Dan, 1983 to Hallmark Cruise show. So there you go. Oh, man. I'll sign it. That's nice. I'll sign it. We'll put it up for auction, everybody. That's a one. Stay tuned. We'll go to a charity or something. That's right. It's going to be real nice. A dangerous snow day. July 17th, 2025. Coming into town today, I think. Yeah.

[01:59:30] Yep. I'm there. Yep. That's right. I'm recording at an airport. Bags are packed. Ready to go. For your, like, very short flight. You're the easiest to book. It's like Southwest. B-W-I to G-S-B. That's great. Has Southwest gotten, got rid of the free-for-all yet? I know they were going to. Not yet. They're going to. They keep, like, pushing it back. Everybody's mad. Yeah. After the holidays. It's like the student loan forgiveness when COVID started.

[02:00:01] Before buying, it was like, you don't have to pay your loans for three months. Cut to three years later, and they're like, we'll give you three more months. It's fantastic. Three more months. Yeah. Yes. So, nope. I get to pick my seat, and it's going to be great. I got a new luggage. You got a new luggage? Tell us about the new luggage. That's always fun. It's lavender. Okay. Carry-on. Carry-on size. Hard shell? The three. Hard shell. Yeah. Aluminum.

[02:00:28] And it's very lightweight, and it has a, it's hard shell, but it has a, you can open the shell, and there's a little thing for your laptop. Ooh. I know exactly what you're talking about. You want to give a shout out to the company? No, because they're not paying me. That's right. And I didn't get a discount. So, and it has a cup holder. It's got a cup holder. Like, if you're just sitting and waiting, and your bag is upright, you can put your cup in there. That.

[02:00:55] You can do like a, you can do like a little, we, out of the aluminum, and then it's a cup holder. That's pretty cool. Like in your car, you can like flip it back up. I'm sold. Sold on this bag. Whatever it is. I love a cup holder. You love a cup holder. I know that about you. Big cup holder guy. I know that about you. By the bar, and she's like, you know, I want to like go back to school and go to grad school, get my master's, uh, and leave the au pair life behind. She's ready to like, uh, you know, do something else.

[02:01:24] Yeah. She's ready to say. Or a wall. Or a wall to the whole player. I saw where you were going. I knew it was going to be a challenge, but you nailed it. Um, and her friend goes to use the little girl's room. Okay. And, uh, so she's sitting by herself at the bar and she makes eye contacts with a honky honk across the bar, but her friend comes back. That's it. But you know, they're there. They're there. She makes eye contact. She does one of these numbers where, you know, you like, you like look at somebody and

[02:01:54] then you go, yeah. I kind of look down and smile. It's one of those. I do that all the time. I can't hold eye contact with anybody. I just end up with chin down smiling. You know me. Yeah. Let's talk about, let's talk about the honky honk for a minute because, um, uh, very, uh, debatable topic in the lifetime, uh, movie, uh, fan world. Alex Tremblay, I think is like really hot, but like everybody else is like, he's not actually, I wouldn't say that he's a nod.

[02:02:23] I would, I would say he's attractive. Here's what I would say is that the first time you said his name, you said Alex Trumbull and this time you said Tremblay and I gave you so much credit for getting all the names right. Which is it? Well, that's a great question. I'll have to ask him when we go on our first date. Yeah. This guy looks like, this guy looks like JJ Abrams. He's a good looking guy. You put glasses on him. He looks like JJ Abrams. Imagine. Actually, that's fair.

[02:02:50] Imagine, imagine though being at the, about at the bar and you look up and JJ Abrams is staring at you and you smile and you look down. And you're like, Oh, my microphone. It's okay. It's just audio. That's JJ Abrams. Yeah. Yeah. And if you take the glasses off of him, nope, not that one. Better skin, I think. Well, he's younger than JJ Abrams. I'm sure JJ has a great skincare routine. I'm sure he's not trying to attack. He's no Tim Mason, but he's up there. But this guy, he's a good, this is a good looking guy. Yeah. It's loading.

[02:03:19] It's more like his, his vibe, his personality. Like there's something that's like mag, mag, mag, mag. Who's the Kerry Russell's husband from the Americans? Matthew Reese. Is that his name? Matthew Reese. He looks like JJ Abrams and Matthew Reese. Like put together. There you go. Yeah. That's not a compliment. Good looking guy. He's a good all that to say. Nothing happens at the bar, but we will see more of him. We'll see more of Frederick. He comes back. Yeah. He comes back. I don't think his name is Frederick.

[02:03:49] Could be. No, no. Frederick. I think Frederick's the dad. Frederick's the dad. He's the, he's Matthew Polkamp. Yeah. We don't, we don't know. We'll see more of not Frederick. We don't know what this guy's name is yet. Yeah. I can tell you. We don't know. Well, we don't know yet. He, we haven't met him. It's Hayes. His name's Hayes. Hayes. Okay. Great. It huddled in her room. Like the sheet, the covers are on the bed. She's not getting under those covers. And she's just like, oh my gosh, I can't believe this is my life.

[02:04:18] And some drunk guy is like banging on the door, like trying to get into her room. She like looks out, peeps out the thing. And like, he's like clearly like, oh no, I'm in the wrong room. He like hits his head. He's like, oh, I'm so stupid. Dummy. Dummy. That's good. That was the role I wanted to play in this movie. The nonverbal drunk wrong room guy. Okay. Give it to us. Go. Go ahead. Okay. Okay. That's it.

[02:04:48] Typically drunk people make more noise than that in movies. You were doing it with such a style on your face. Patrick was in a silent film. Filer.tv slash PTH. That is my, that's my era. Can you give me one and it's a talkie? Can we do that? Oh, okay. Action. 375. What's my room? Oh, no, it's not. I'm 357. End scene.

[02:05:15] That's what you did is just brand on a normal day at a hotel. That's true. That's true. That's accurate. Hotels are hard. I always say that. Hotels are hard. Decorate your door. Decorate your door. I don't want any part of that. That's how you know where you are. On the cruise. Yeah. And I was like, I already didn't want to go on a cruise. And now you're decorating doors. They're just hard out. Yeah. Yeah. I like wrap my door in wrapping paper every hotel I go to. Is that, is the decorator door? Every hotel I go to. Yeah.

[02:05:44] We've, no, we've, listen, he's come in for brand what we know. We always do. We always do. We're like, let Patrick cook. Just let him cook. Right. Do you think people do that on cruises because they just plan to get so wasted? They want to make sure they know which door is theirs? No, it's just a tradition. It's just like a theme? Yeah. It's just a thing. It is definitely, when I'm drunk, I need to know I'm going to the right room. It's important. It has to be. It has to be. That is important. There's got to be a little bit of that, right? Sure. I am sure it's at least a percentage, for sure. I've never been on a cruise and I never will go on a cruise, but I would definitely decorate my door.

[02:06:14] Is there a fear of being out in the high seas? What about Bramble Fest at City next year? Bramble Fest. Fine. I need a VIP room where I have the sliding glass door to like- You gave in so quickly. I'll never go on a cruise, Bramble Fest at Sea, I'm in. Oh, yeah. Well, duh. Duh. It's Bramble Fest at Sea. Yeah. You can't say no to Bramble Fest. What you don't know is it's not a full cruise liner. It's just a single yacht. Like it's one yacht and we're going to cram it with 100 people. Nice. It's going to be awful. Okay.

[02:06:44] It's going to be awful. Well, I call the pullout. Reedy River Cruise. I love that. That's right. It's a canoe. Yeah. Brett, there you go. We could cruise Lake Hartwell. Yes, we could. We sure could. We get it. We get it. We get it. We get it. We get it. We get it. We get it. We get it. Just like hook a bunch of pontoon boats together and just like, you know, have a time. Just a redneck, redneck yacht club is Craig.

[02:07:13] What's his name would say. I don't remember his last name. Craig. What's his name? Craig. What's his name? I'll look it up. Don't worry. I'll give him full credit. Merry Christmas, July 18th, 2025. But the brides are all, they're letting all this nonsense. They're not going to let it get down. They're going to go dress hunting. It's a whole thing. And for some reason, Seth is there. Yeah. He's always looking sad. He's drinking the champagne. He doesn't need anything. He doesn't need anything. He really is. That's Seth.

[02:07:42] And Noel is sick of the brothers fighting. So she tells him that the brothers are going to go on a bachelor's trip. You want a cup of noodles? So that they can stop fighting. You want a cup of noodles? You want a cup of noodles heated up? Seth, I don't. You need anything? I don't need a cup of noodles. You called a cup of noodles? The guy in the movie's name is Seth. Microwave or oven, cup of noodles. I don't want a cup of noodles. Cup of noodles? The guy in this movie's name, I don't. Cup of noodles? Just know, when I say Seth, I'm not talking about you. You dingy ding? Or you rang? Cup of noodles?

[02:08:11] I don't want a cup of noodles. Okay. The Mission Star Furious rankings, July 21st, 2025. Genuinely, is this our worst idea today that we're about to do? You know what? I think it is. It is. I'll say it is. However, what we're doing next is my, I'm very excited about it. Christmas every day? Yes. No, we're not telling you. We're not. Are we not? You're really excited about the brink-led Christmas all day ABC family movie from 1996? No.

[02:08:41] That we were reviewing last week to close out Christmas in July. I'm not counting that. Oh. What was your favorite part, Ryguy? Definitely the brand Striptease. Yeah. I thought it was a little inappropriate, but it was enjoyable. I don't want to embarrass the guy, but he worked for weeks on that. I mean, every morning, I would sit in my recliner and he did the full thing for me. Doing it to Am Blue, Abu Dhabi, Abu Dhabi. It was a move.

[02:09:07] And I do think that this is obviously hard to talk about because this is a workplace. We do work together, but you're also my best friend. That's right. Yeah. So who am I going to practice for if not you? No, no, no. I was perfectly comfortable with it. Good, good. I don't want people thinking that this is a safe workplace and we try to relate it. I'm offended I didn't see any rehearsals myself. I'm not there, but I do. And we get in early. Erin doesn't. Erin doesn't. Her job is later in the day. She works after we leave, but she gets in at nine.

[02:09:38] He did that before she got here. It was completely above board. This is a 7 a.m. It was just the two of us in the office, me in a recliner, brand practicing his trip. Yes. I'm blue. It was above board. Sometimes I'd hold the speaker up over my head. You know what I mean? Like just to make it. Yeah. You gave me a lot of tips. Some of them didn't work out good, but you know. Most of them I think you utilized and they were great. We could go about this any other way. Before we do that, I do want to discuss something really quickly with you, Ryan.

[02:10:07] I know before Bramble Fest, you went and you saw Allie and AJ live. I did. Good God. Stars of Cowbells then. You're familiar with Cowbells. You're familiar with Cowbells. I mean, they were bad then. I can't imagine how they've aged. I don't even want to talk about it now, Bram. But I don't either. They're not talented. Oh my God. Dude, that Cowbells movie is bad. And the singing, the song, terrible. The song's bad.

[02:10:34] You didn't sample their first album after watching Cowbells. I was actually making an informed opinion. Whatever they played in here, Bram played one or two songs and I hated them. Oh my God. What do you want to know, Bram? I want to know, one, how was the show? And two, how did you celebrate afterwards? The show was great. You might be thinking to yourself that second question seems like a leading question. Seems really weird. But let's see where it goes. Quickly, the show was great.

[02:11:01] Alyssa and I have a running list of the best concerts we've been to. We've ranked all of them. This was the 15th concert we've been to. I have it on fifth. Oh, wow. That's not bad. Yeah. Who's last? Top 33%. 33 to 30%. Who's last? Let's see here real quick. Concerts right now at 15th. So this comes with a caveat, Brand. You're going to like this. I'm sure it was awesome. No, it was the first Pentatonix Christmas show we went to, but only because the people behind us were obnoxious. Okay. That's part of it. That's part of it. That's part of the experience.

[02:11:32] Yeah. And so, but yeah. What's top five? Aly and AJ fifth. Listen, I'm just absorbing the music. Like Timberlake's concert from last year. Fourth. Was that before or after the world tour was ruined? It was right after the world tour was ruined. I guess it wasn't ruined. He makes good music. What do you want from me? Yeah. Hey, Brand likes Pocahontas. We found out. That's true. That's true.

[02:11:59] I mean, bold coming from Ryan talking about Toby Keith during the Mission Impossible. That was misquoted. Now, for the record, I like Pocahontas too. I didn't get the masterpiece, but neither here nor there. Three. Pocahontas too. Wow. That sucks. They realized one was so historically inaccurate, they tried to fix it with the second one. Sorry. What was three? Go ahead. JT. Backstreet Boys, not at the Sphere. We saw them a couple years ago in Connecticut. That was the name of the tour, not at the Sphere? Yeah.

[02:12:28] Two, Tori Kelly. This is when we went to Wisconsin. Who's beaten Tori Kelly? We saw Boyz II Men with an orchestra in Nashville. With an orchestra? Yeah. You should have just, yeah, that's going to be better than the rest of them. I don't think that will ever be. There was also a Christmas. They did some of the cuts off the Christmas album. I'll never have a better concert. Oh my God. We were front row. Juan Yang and I shared one of these. Like, it was amazing. Okay, so you see Allie and AJ live. Fifth best concert you've seen with Alyssa. Wound up with the set list.

[02:12:57] Wound up with the set list, which you were very excited about. Yep. Gonna get to sign it one day. Yep. How do you cap off a weekend like that? Uh, on Sunday, uh, we, uh, we watched, uh, starring one Allie of Allie and AJ, uh, Sand Dollar Cove with Chad Michael Murray from the Hallmark channel. Uh, how'd you find the doc, Ryan? The doc.

[02:13:22] Well, I had seen it before, uh, but I, I own it on home media brand, which is how I was You own a physical media copy of the, the Hallmark movie where they just need to sell the doc. I tried to use, I tried to use the, uh, the, the company Hallmark plus account, but I no longer had access. It's built in the file, file on TV slash DTH, right? Yeah. It's great. Uh, and then I tried to watch it on Tubi, but it was only in Spanish. And so then I said, and then I said, uh, Alyssa, how about we just pop in, uh, you know,

[02:13:50] the thing I paid 10 bucks for from the Walmart, uh, the DVD. Yeah. Yeah. I'm really glad I own it. You know, I don't really know what Chad Michael Murray is doing with his accent in that movie. Uh, and, uh, it's one of the worst movies of the year of Hallmark. It was, it was really bad. I, I enjoyed it a good amount on the second watch. Oh my God. On the copy that you bought for $10. Yeah. Think about how many finger puppets you could buy for that.

[02:14:17] I mean, maybe one, but I will say that, uh, it's, it takes place in Connecticut. Allie is from, in that movie where they played the concert on a few nights ago. So really it was, we would have, it would have been a mistake to not watch it. You know? And so. So many fun facts. Yeah. Full circle. Uh, and so, yeah, I would say that it's a top tier Hallmark for, uh, post COVID times. You couldn't say it was a straight face. Post COVID times. Oh, good God. It was one of the best movies that came out that month in 2021.

[02:14:46] For sure. Was Sand Dollar Coast still in the wrapper? No, I, no, I saw it for the first time on DVD. Wow. He did. He missed it on the Hallmark. So you missed it when. I didn't, I don't know. They should have promoted that a lot better. I mean, like all jokes aside, all jokes aside. I mean, this is two pillars of the, you know, 2006 to 2010 era, you know, starring opposite one another on the Hallmark channel.

[02:15:14] Do you think that there are throngs of people that care as much as you do about that? About Ali and AJ? About, about how they advertised an, is it Ali or AJ? Which one? It's Ali. How they advertised an Ali CMM movie on Hallmark channel in July. Do I think that there's others? Yes. Do I think that there's droves? Yes. Yes. Could have just said yes, right? I've heard your whole question and I'm going to break it down into two parts. You bet. It's a yes for both. You bet.

[02:15:43] All right, let's get back to it. Thank you, everybody. We are ranking the Fast and Furious movies, Star Wars movies, and the Mission Impossible movies all in. This is what you've all been playing for. Yep. Go ahead, Brian. Go ahead, Rye. I'd have Sand Dollar Cove ahead of Attack of the Clones legitimately. That is the dumbest thing you've ever said. You wouldn't have Sand Dollar Cove ahead of Attack of the Clones, brother. Just stop it. We are. You are. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I love Ali and AJ as much as the next guy.

[02:16:12] That is hysterical. What about Rise of Skywalker? What about Rise of Skywalker? No. No. Oh, man. They're still. I don't even know who you are anymore. Ryan. Ryan. It's just so easy. At the end of the day, he has made a career of telling you exactly who he is at the top of every show. He hates Hallmark movies. And if you don't know who someone is when they tell you, you don't believe them. Like, that's on you. You brought Sand Dollar Cove. Once you pulled me once, you can't pull me again. I literally said I despise Hallmark movies no less than a thousand times on record. Okay.

[02:16:41] A season for miracles, July 22nd, 2025. So he goes up into the attic with Emily. They find some Christmas lights and they end up kissing in the attic. Oh, boy. Kissing in the attic. I'm kissing in the attic. Everybody knows that I'm kissing in the attic. It is there that everything goes to heck. Watch it.

[02:17:10] First, the police administrator lady finds the facts. The car facts. It's a fox. It's a fox. That gives you the facts. What did the fox say? Kidnapping. What do you do in that attic? The two nights. When you hear overdose, you go, uh-oh. Yeah, uh-oh. Okay. We're in it. Was your 10-year-old like, your 10-year-old was fine?

[02:17:36] Well, later that day, he asked, like, we drove by a drugstore, and it said drugstore. And he's like, why? They can't sell drugs? I'm like, it's different than that movie. And I explained. Or maybe it isn't. Well, no, it wasn't one of those drugs. So it was a pharmacy store. But, yeah. So I did have to explain the difference and why some people make those choices and why, you know, there's a system. So after you knocked it out of the park, it turned into a little bit of a teaching moment. You opened up your glove box. You're like, you see this? Yeah, you see, you want to see drugs in that drugstore?

[02:18:06] Come with me. You know how I always say Daddy's Candy? You know how I always say Brand's Candy? Whoa, whoa, whoa. Why would I keep that in your car? Oh, man. It's always in my pocket. Well, we were on the lamp, remember? Right. You need a fun facts number. Yeah. Yeah, a fun facts number. We need a fun facts number on a series. Well, they call it fun facts. That's exactly right. Is that a double-decker of the week? Come on, man. We're doing your job for you. You ring. You ring. Yeah. Hello. It's a fun facts. Hi, I'm fun fact Danny.

[02:18:34] Do you make the facts sound, Danny, or just? That's good. And then you give us a facts? Do you give us a fun fact or no? Every other day, there are at least 17 people who jump. I got to be honest. I think we caught fun facts, Danny, on a break, or maybe we caught him off guard. He clearly didn't know he was going to have to provide. Here comes another one. It's coming in hot. Fun fact. Go ahead, Danny. Clean up facts.

[02:19:06] When you were younger, when you were younger. It's a magic eight ball. What is going on here? You likely saw a ghost and didn't know it. Thanks, Danny. This has got to be the last one for Danny. They're going to hang up on Danny right now. Unplug that facts. I'm a big fan of the band The Cranberries. Yeah. It's starting to get a little Cosby-ish, and I don't love it. No, no, no. Nothing.

[02:19:36] No. Bye fun facts, Danny. Danny. Yeah. There it is. Love that guy. I went as far as we could. But we got to camp out here for a second, and one of the creepiest things I've ever seen in one of these movies. I don't care. Season for Miracles fans, at me. Email me. This is absolutely something that Joe from you would do, except not to a child.

[02:19:59] This little girl in the cabinet behind the mirror in the bathroom opens the mirror of her bathroom. She's maybe nine years old and sees a clue for a scavenger hunt. It's a Christmas scavenger hunt. It's a Christmas scavenger hunt. This clue has a note that leads her to her next clue.

[02:20:26] It starts in her bathroom, and then it leads to the next clue. And the clues lead her to a very back aisle in a secluded library where a full-grown man pops out to surprise her. That she's known for under two weeks. That is in this movie. I have not made that sound worse than it is.

[02:20:48] It is a colorful clue designed to catch the eye of a child and lead them to a very quiet, secluded location. That happens in this movie. There is no defense of that. It is disturbing. I was half expecting the old guy from Dateline to come out. And what did you find in the back of that library? Like, this is not okay. It isn't okay. I'm sorry. I know you got feelings for Carla Giugino. I know you're trying to get in good with all the kids.

[02:21:18] You cannot start a scavenger hunt in this little girl's bathroom and lead them to the back of a library where you give her a book and say, surprise, it's a whisper. You can't do it. To a book that's called The Secret Garden. Secret Garden. Stop. No. Are you sure it wasn't a shared bathroom? Arrest that man. I'm sure it was. I don't care. It says her name on it. Yeah, what's your call? Wait a minute, Brian. It says her name on it in crayon. Yeah, but if it's a bathroom on the second floor that everybody uses, it's not as creepy.

[02:21:48] It's not like he went into her. It's just as creepy. He had to know what bathroom she uses. It's creepy. It's a terrible scene. Do you need to go, like, fix something that you've done? No, I didn't think of it as being this bad until you lay it all out like that. And then it turns out. It does sound pretty bad. It sounds really bad. And I have not. Have I taken any of that out of context? That's exactly as it happened. I will say, this was a way that I didn't write down, but the first clue is shoe.

[02:22:18] And she opens up this door that's like a pantry door, and there's just a shoe on a shoe, like one singular shoe on a shelf. I love that she knew what that meant. A shoe. Oh, it's the singular shoe. It's the singular shoe. Yes. You want to know what I want to hear more about? What's that? Today's Double Decker of the Week. Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Double Decker of the Week. Week. No. It's time for Double Decker of the Week. Danny's wearing tracks.

[02:22:48] Hit it. I think it's going to squeal. We changed the camera. There we go. Yeah. Hey, Danny. One more. Yep. You got one. Hit me. You guys, there's no water? You bet I do. I'm not heard of it, yeah. All right. It's time for Double Decker of the Week. I think we lost. It's time for Double Decker of the Week. Hallmark Christmas at Sea sleigh ride, July 23rd, 2025. It's time for Mr. Shitmas. Mr. Shitmas? Mr. Shitmas.

[02:23:18] Got it. Okay, great. Mr. Shitmas. That's not what you said. Mr. Shitmas. I got you. Okay. Are you ready? I'm as ready as I'm going to be. Okay. This is as bad as it's going to be. It's me, Dan, and I'll show it to the camera, and you can talk it through, okay? Let everybody know what you have drawn today. So this is brand driving an ATV in a rainstorm. It's a rainstorm. It is. There's a lot of detailed fine line work there. And that's the ATV?

[02:23:48] And that's the ATV, and that's me trying to jump out as quickly as I can. Oh, I see that. I, my limit is stick figures. I can't do people. And so you, I am, I am completely hairless. You have a beard and a, I ran out of time is what happened. And we're both orange because I didn't know a good color to draw white people. And that's where we are. But it's, but I want credit for this. Yeah.

[02:24:17] Those are white wall tires on the, on the, on the ATV. Could I have gone black on black? Could I have gone rims? I went white wall tire and I'm proud of that. The rest of this boy, howdy. That's beautiful. Ice road killer, July 24th, 2025. Hi, I'm Brandon. I love lice. Lice? You love lice? Yes, buddy. And I love lice. They're really bad for you. Nope, you know what?

[02:30:43] I don't know. I'm Dan and I despise. Hulu. Christmas movies. I'm Alonzo and it's the December. Bride reunion. Nobody wanted. And this is the Hallmark podcast. What was your favorite part of Bramble Fest, Alonzo? I know it's been a few days now. It's tough to remember back then. I mean, I think, you know, when the parade of the screaming goats was pretty amazing. That was a last minute ad for us. It was. We had a deal.

[02:31:13] There was a good deal on goats. We couldn't turn it down. Sure, no. We couldn't possibly turn down the goats at that point. No. We would have lost money on it. Yeah. I wasn't convinced they'd scream. A lot of broken glass. Yeah. Worth it. No, worth it. For sure. It was worth it. And that's why you get liability insurance. If you would like to have us do Bramble Fest at your location next year, let us know because we're not allowed back to Hyatt Place. We'll travel to you. We'll travel to you. We'll do it. Listen, it's time to take Bramble Fest on the road. We've been saying it for a while now and it's time to finally do it. Of course.

[02:31:43] He does. He's Jake calls her up. I think he's traveling back and they want us to think that he's, you know, in an airport. You're taking mine. I hate you so much. He's in an airplane museum. They are taking airport with airplane music. There are just planes. It's not even. In the lobby. I've been here for hours and my flight hasn't arrived yet. Legitimately, there is not anyone taking tickets. There's nothing. No.

[02:32:13] It is purely an airplane museum. Just a lot of airplanes in the lobby. Like old Cessnas hanging from the ceiling. Like Night at the Museum 2 when Amy Adams is Amelia Earhart. Right. It's like that. Now, I have been in airports that'll have like one. No, no, no. But yeah, this is so clearly an airplane museum. Shout out. Shout out to the museums out there. Christmas every day. July 28th, 2025. One of the first. It was the first. The first. We ever did.

[02:32:43] Yes. Was Ryan. Was Ryan bringing his favorite 90s sports movies. Yes, that is correct. And so what. I think his favorite sports movies of any time. And they were sports movies of all time. And I put a lot of 90s in there. And he was so wrong. Forgive me for thinking that it was all 90s sports movies. Creed and Remember the Titans got in there amongst Brink and other 90s classics. Oh yeah, Brink was number 10. Brink was number 10. The greatest movie of our time, of all time, of any time.

[02:33:13] Brink. Brink. I loved it, guys. I wish. I wish. If ever there was a movie that didn't need to be preserved in physical media, I think we've found it. Guys, Eric Van Detten, God love him. We caught up with him through a video where we found out he was a sales guy. He seems like a riot to hang out with. He's not an actor. He isn't.

[02:33:40] I think, do you remember watching the interview during the movie where we paused the movie, Brian, to watch the interview where he was literally, the Kelsey brothers brought him up in their podcast about loving Brink. And so some local news station got him on to talk to him about the Kelsey brothers loving Brink. It is one of the funniest interviews maybe you'll ever see.

[02:34:07] And here's the thing, and this is not, I'm not trying to take a shot at Mr. Von Detten. He clearly is 100% thrilled, happy, and content to not be in the movies. He doesn't want to be in the movies. He's in real estate. He did a lifetime last year, and that was it. He's in real estate. Yeah. Which also, yeah, he's Brink. That's the problem. He's not his gift. He's Brink. He's not his gift. He's not good in Brink. I want to be very clear. He's great.

[02:34:37] Whoa. He's not. He's perfect. No. He, no, no, no. Magic Stocking, July 29th, 2025. We're very happy that you're joining us and very happy that we found a 2015 movie that you hadn't seen or talked about on your program, and we get to do that today. I keep calling it a program. Your program. I'm old. I'm old. I'm the old. Something happened in the last six months where you became 55 years old.

[02:35:06] Thank you for joining the program. We've got this young lady here who's on a program, and she'll tell us about the program later, but we found one she hadn't covered yet. It's a YouTube program. And she's originally from the great state of South Carolina. Wow. That is true. I am. You and I, we swapped, because now you're down in Florida, and I'm in South Carolina. Indeed. How about that? Yeah, I'm from a low country. I will speak for yourself. December 6, 2015 is when it aired originally, and it went a little something like this.

[02:35:38] Welcome to the township of... Welcome to the township of... That's where it's been a little bit. It's been a little bit. Welcome to the township of Guilford. We meet... So they hire... It's Christmas. So they hire Scott, a Guilford newbie, and somebody who literally made me say, oh my gosh, when he walked on the screen. I said this before. 2015 Vic. You said, oh my gosh, I had missed it. And you said, rewind it. I said, wait.

[02:36:06] And I thought I was going to see something I had not seen before. It just turns out it was Vic Webster. 2015 Vic Webster. Someone I've met in person numerous times. 2015 Vic Webster. Great. Sheesh. Still looks great. I don't hear what I'm not saying. Anyway. Don't hear what I'm not saying. Don't hear what I'm not saying. The problem is... Like, terrible. Yeah. I liked that she got mad at Scott when he bought her daughter a really ugly puppy. Because you don't just do that. We don't have to comment.

[02:36:36] There were cuter puppies. But it's fine. Man. You don't just buy a child... There's no such thing as an ugly puppy, Casey. Magic was fine. I'm just saying there were better ones. She'd already bought the gift card to the pound. You know, as you do. You buy gift cards to the pound. It's something that you do. Yeah, you buy gift cards. I can already tell Casey also thinks they're ugly babies. And that does make me happy. Casey's like, oh, it's so cute. And then Casey and I would walk away and she would go, baby was kind of ugly, wasn't it? I'd be like, yeah, it was. Be honest, Casey. That would happen, right?

[02:37:06] Only sometimes. Yeah. Well, it depends on if the baby's ugly or not. That's right. It's got to be ugly. Yeah. We're not just saying they're all ugly. Yeah. You know. Yeah. Guys, I don't know. Like, this is a nice film. It's a nice flick. I enjoyed it. And I like magic. A stocking that just... Think about this, folks. This stocking... Is magic. It's the name of the movie.

[02:37:34] This stocking jumps a little bit to free itself. It does. Every time... It does. It is on a hook, right? Mm-hmm. I am mad that we didn't get to see this stocking really strut its stuff. This stocking, at least four times in this movie, does do one of these. And we don't get to see it. We never get to see it. So you're just assuming that's what it does. Well, how else...

[02:38:02] Do you think it phases a gap through the hook? It's magic, Brian. Literally, the hook could disappear briefly. The hook could bend down. There's a lot of ways this could happen without the... The only explanation is that this stocking hops. I agree that it does hop. Thank you. And when you think about that for a second... Dana, close your eyes. Okay. And think about the stocking hopping. It's cute, right? I don't love it. It's funny. It's a funny image. It's a funny bit. If he had a little mouth, you know?

[02:38:32] Like the bill on Capitol Hill. Yes. That's what I'm talking about. I'm a magic stocking jumping over a hook. That would have taken this movie... If we actually got to see how the stocking... Save it for what the homework. Well, I got another one. How the stocking do its thing, this movie would have been a 10 of 10. But now I'm just left thinking about it, and I can't visualize things very well. Yeah, you can't, right. I have that problem with my brain. It's just what happens when you get old. Yeah. And so, yeah, I really like this program.

[02:39:02] Go ahead. Hallmark's Christmas at Sea. All I want for Christmas is you. July 30th, 2025. And I love that. Tyler Hines is going to step in to be daddy and walk her down the aisle. All right. Well, we went a step too far. Well, because it's usually like the father. It's usually the father. And so... Step in to be daddy. He's going to step in to be daddy. He's stepping in to be daddy.

[02:39:31] Okay. Are we ready for the final reveal? I'm done. Your last picture. Hand it on over to me. I tried really hard every week. Okay. And I want that on the board. I want that on the board. Here is the final one. They don't talk us through here. This is Tyler Hines marrying the Camel Joe cigarettes box. Um... And the crown is officiating the wedding that says, I now pronounce you.

[02:39:57] And there's a plane in the background flying a banner that says, Merry Christmas, camel.net, promo code hiney. Yeah. Really good. This is your best work. Um... That's my attempt at a human being. You're really good. Uh... That's a good Tyler Hines. Maybe a little big. Yeah, there's no proportions there at all. Camel Joe's massive. Camel Joe's a big... It's a big cigarette box. Yeah. Camel.net, promo code hiney. The chairs are so cattywampus.

[02:40:27] The thing... What's the thing you get married under? Oh, archway? The arch... Whatever that is. Good luck with the lattice work there, guys. You get an up-close look when we put it on the socials. This is beautiful. I think this is my favorite. Ah, this is tough. I'm gonna rank them as... Please do. You're gonna rank my pictures? Yes. Please do. I think... Put them all out here. I'm gonna sign this one. Can you hand me those two, Aaron, if you don't mind?

[02:40:52] I think I am going to go with the cruise ship fire as my favorite one. Wow. First one's about your favorite. Out of the gate. It is. Okay. It is. Nobody died. I wanna be clear. Nobody died. Um... And then I do think I'm gonna go with the Heine birth... Uh... Heine wedding. At two. I think that that's very fun. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. So, first and last are your best work. Okay.

[02:41:22] Good. That means I was consistent foul pole to foul pole. I think I'm gonna go tree at number three. Trees, I like trees. I think I'm gonna go tree. Yeah. The last one is the ATV. And it's not bad. It does feel like the most rushed. Can I say that? It feels like the most phoned in. I would agree with that statement. Dude, how do you feel about this ranking? I... I... Uh... I like this ranking. Yeah. I like this ranking. I think I could get behind this ranking. From a... Here's what I'll say. These drawings aren't good. And I'm fine. I'm proud of what I did.

[02:41:52] In the time in which I did it. With the earnestness in which I... If you're just trying to do something and do it as well as possible, it's a great exercise if you don't like something. This has encouraged me to try things I don't like more. You're the Gale of the... I'm the Gale of the trip. The Gale's my favorite. Not pregnant. Uh... No, that's Lori. Oh, my bad. Can you... I'm trying here. I remember Nikki Deloach. Give me a break. Uh... Here's what I'll say that I'm most proud of. From a very long distance away, if you squint, this does look like a shipwreck. Yeah.

[02:42:21] The rest of these... But that one does look like a burning ship in the ocean from a ways away. But you can have all four of them. You can have all four of them if you want it. Stay tuned to find out how. Stay tuned. Maybe. The August preview show, July 31st, 2025. This is like a back to form. Yeah. This is what... This is what I want. What'd I say? Jax is in this movie? Jacqueline Collier presents Double Scoop? That's right. She is. I forgot about that.

[02:42:49] That's why I'm giving it the cream. Of course. Five and a cream. So what do you want to take a bag? Up four bags, obviously. Up four. Up four bags. One bag for Jax. I was here for zero across the board. The synopsis alone is a zero. Yeah. But a bag of Miss Vicky's chips for Jacqueline Collier. Absolutely. It's a one. Yeah. We love it. Absolutely. We love it. That's great. Jack. Catch of the day. Catch of the day. All right.

[02:43:18] This is August 30th. So snuck it in just in time. We have Amelia Ulerup. Yeah, we do. We have Michael Rady. Let's go. And we have... I saved my cream for this? Thank God. Try and stop my cream. And we have... This cream's... It's happening whether you like it or not. Welcome to Creamville Population 2. And we have Katie Lee Beagle. I don't know if that's... Oh, I would say it. And we have... Welcome to Creamtown Population 2.

[02:43:48] Brian and I are the co-mayors of Creamtown. They are. I'm actually trying to get you voted out of there. So I'm going to show you... Hopefully, his fingers crossed. The single mayor of Creamtown. Good luck. I... And updates on Creamville. Mayor Brian. Mayor Dan. What's the latest in Creamville? Things are going great. Economy through the roof. Yeah. Pretty solid. Yeah. Pretty solid. Traffic is... We didn't just make your money. We put a lot of money in bonk. Yeah.

[02:44:18] Yeah. And that was a good insight on Dan's part. You're telling me Creamville gets all their money from bonk. You said it. It's mostly the interest. But yeah. There's a new meme coin in town. It's called bonk. And I would recommend throwing a buck in bonk if I was you. Going bonkers, if you will. Yeah. A buck would get you a lot of... A buck would get you a lot of bonk. A lot of bonk for your buck. A lot of bonk for your buck. On the eve of becoming a... I put 20 bucks in bonk. I have 610,000 bonk coins. So you guys can laugh all you want.

[02:44:48] But when that thing reaches $1, you will not see me. You get cashes in for bonkaroos. And twice the rate. What about bonkies? One... It's like 10 bonk coins equals one boink, I believe. If I'm not mistaken. Yeah. It's a 10 to 1 bonk to boink ratio. It's like super high. Hey, you guys in the chat think I'm lying. Industry standard. Put a buck in a bonk. See what happens. You'll thank me later. But also watch out. Look out. Watch out. It's up to your own discretion. Dan's over here being a... I am definitely mayor of Bonk Town. There's no way around.

[02:45:17] Yeah. I won't even touch that. No, no, no. I don't want any part of that jurisdiction. Dan's over here. Dan's a crypto bro. He's going to soup the rug out right from under you when you guys all put a dollar in the bonk. It's a buck in the bonk. Come on. Literation. That's for a bonk-ulous. Yes, Aaron? Trademark that, Dan, quickly. Can I just check in with Dan on how much that $20 is worth right now in bonk? I think it's worth $19.50. And I... Listen. Well... There's some definite market movement with bonk. Yeah. But I have a lot of confidence in the meme coin bonk.

[02:45:47] It's very versatile. I don't know what you want from me. Don't put anything in the bonk you need in the next 5 to 10, 20 years. No, no, no, no. No, this is your fun money. This is fun money in bonk. That's what you put in the bonk. What's the bonk equivalent of to the moon? I don't know. Let's take it through. Bonk it right up. It's a bonk. I love Funk-a-verse. To the bonks. Did you say Funk-a-verse? What does that do with anything? I don't know, man. Bonk-a-verse. On the eve of becoming a New York executive... I'm just saying $20 in a bonk. 610,000 bonk coins. They're giving them away. Yeah, Lil Debbie.

[02:46:17] On the... Oh, Dan, that was a lot of fun. Yeah, it really was, man. Just a couple of months. I mean, looking back, I remembered all of those titles so well. I didn't even need the refresher. No. None of them were mystery. The rest of the race to us. No. And this has been so much fun. And we're going to do this for the next few weeks. Taking a look back at the year that has been. Mm-hmm. Yep. And making goals for the year that will be. The year that will be. We'll get to those goals. We're going to start year nine. We'll get to those goals.

[02:46:46] We're not going to put them out there yet. Take it off of Bramblefest. Year nine. That's right. It's crazy. That's exactly right. So come on back for that. It's going to be a lot of fun. Until next time, maybe the first to wish you a Merry Christmas. Deck the Hallmark's a Bramble Jam podcast produced by Brandon Gray. And yeah, that Greenville, South Carolina.
