Blind Date Book Club (Hallmark Channel - 2024) ft. Brian Herald

[00:00:00] Hi, I'm Brandon. I love Hallmark Spring Movies. I'm Brian. I like Hallmark Spring Movies.

[00:00:10] Hi, I'm Dan and I despise Hallmark Spring Movies and this is the Deck The Hallmark Podcast.

[00:00:31] Hello everybody. It is great to be here today.

[00:00:40] We did it. We did it. Tuesday morning. We decided to do this one live.

[00:00:46] We survived. We survived the eclipse.

[00:00:49] Again, no rapture which is just starting to believe maybe not what it's so cracked up to be.

[00:00:56] All these signs and wonders just keep happening.

[00:00:59] So we're not going to get to do this again until 2044.

[00:01:02] Another one of the science column everybody.

[00:01:04] You know what's crazy though? There's one in 2044 that three states will see and then the next year of a full drive by.

[00:01:12] I just feel like I was a drive buck.

[00:01:15] Yeah, it's when it goes through the entire continental.

[00:01:19] Oh wow.

[00:01:20] US.

[00:01:21] So also train. Not a drive by.

[00:01:24] I thought you might. I was told in 2017 that that was the last one in my life.

[00:01:32] It's not up on us. It's not up on the school district.

[00:01:35] We have all of them.

[00:01:37] By the way, Grego County.

[00:01:39] I was already pretty peeved about this whole thing where we're 80 getting 82% totality.

[00:01:46] But let's just cancel school willy-nilly.

[00:01:49] Yeah, at the time I didn't realize what time the eclipse would be happening or whatnot.

[00:01:58] I would have been home with my kid by the time the eclipse even.

[00:02:02] Well, I wouldn't reach a peak of close Sunday night.

[00:02:06] I looked it up and I was like, what's going on?

[00:02:08] It's two straight hours and the most it gets is 86% cut like it was still bright a bright sunshiney day in Greenville.

[00:02:17] You could have been completely fine out there.

[00:02:20] Yeah.

[00:02:21] And after it happened, I was I was peeved too before then I was like, you know what?

[00:02:24] I had a great day.

[00:02:25] Great day.

[00:02:26] Had a great day.

[00:02:27] Watched a movie.

[00:02:28] You know when when I just did stuff.

[00:02:31] We went hunting.

[00:02:32] We went hunting.

[00:02:33] Yes.

[00:02:34] We played some video games.

[00:02:35] We beat Super Mario Wonder on switch.

[00:02:37] My kid.

[00:02:38] Congratulations.

[00:02:39] Yeah.

[00:02:40] My kid my seven and a half year old boy Jay, he looked at me as he went to sleep and he looked at me.

[00:02:46] He said, this is the best video game day of my life.

[00:02:49] That's what he said.

[00:02:51] Hey, did you get the things?

[00:02:53] Yeah.

[00:02:54] This is the best video game day of my life.

[00:02:56] That's a great.

[00:02:57] We play like two hours of video games a week maybe so it's a big day.

[00:03:01] The best video game day of his life.

[00:03:03] So thank you Greenville County.

[00:03:04] Now I also encountered an earthquake over the weekend.

[00:03:08] You sure?

[00:03:09] I was in New York City.

[00:03:10] Real survivor.

[00:03:11] I was in New York City and the earthquake happened and even New Yorkers were taken aback by this

[00:03:17] and that's how you know this is a truly special event.

[00:03:21] And so, you know, I've had a busy couple days between the earthquake and the yeah.

[00:03:25] You did mountains.

[00:03:26] I felt the mountains.

[00:03:27] You know what to do?

[00:03:28] I run outside your underwear.

[00:03:30] This is supposed to this isn't this is this.

[00:03:32] So I was in a sixth floor of an apartment in New York City while this is happening

[00:03:38] and where.

[00:03:41] My first thought my first thought was something terrible.

[00:03:44] Yes, second thought because of especially where sound was coming from.

[00:03:49] I saw it thought somebody might be knocking boots above.

[00:03:52] My third was Lord's coming back fourth earthquake.

[00:03:57] That's how that three was Lords coming back.

[00:04:01] Yeah.

[00:04:02] But you said wait a second the eclipse is coming.

[00:04:04] That has to be that.

[00:04:05] I know.

[00:04:06] This can be a rapture has before the no way to lead to the wrap.

[00:04:10] That's exactly right.

[00:04:11] That's why it was so it was so late.

[00:04:13] And I mean the fact that I was still again, I don't know how it's all going to happen

[00:04:18] but I think I get taken pretty quick.

[00:04:21] You know like I don't think you think there's a priority list for the fake rapture.

[00:04:26] No, no, no, no, no, I'm talking like like a weakness.

[00:04:30] I'm talking like how it's like actually going to transpire.

[00:04:34] I think there will be some tremblings of the mountains and then but then I'm like,

[00:04:38] I don't know.

[00:04:39] But I felt like you would know there'd be some sort of horn of sorts.

[00:04:42] I don't know.

[00:04:43] I think the reason why it wasn't my first is there was no horn.

[00:04:47] We should take that brand one day.

[00:04:49] I thought for sure.

[00:04:50] If he's willing to believe there's a horn coming.

[00:04:54] I thought for sure that'd be a horn.

[00:04:56] There's higher prank TV after that.

[00:04:58] Yeah, we think we have your brain.

[00:05:01] Any time I hear a horn out in public, I assume I assume this is it.

[00:05:06] You're taking your shoes off.

[00:05:07] You're going to stop sounding horns in public.

[00:05:08] Everybody thinks they left behind.

[00:05:10] Yeah, I know.

[00:05:11] I know.

[00:05:12] I went to Poppiz and Beer on Sunday and there was a shout out the funniest

[00:05:17] trumpet player I've ever heard.

[00:05:19] He really had a hard time with one of the songs and it was amazing.

[00:05:23] So shout out to Poppiz and Beer.

[00:05:24] Were you in hell?

[00:05:26] It was loud.

[00:05:27] It's loud in there.

[00:05:29] Hey, let's talk about a blind date book.

[00:05:32] A blind date book.

[00:05:34] Did you sing it over the weekend at all?

[00:05:37] I listened to it the whole way here.

[00:05:39] That's all I could think of.

[00:05:40] What is it?

[00:05:41] The blind date book.

[00:05:42] The song, I think it's Craig Morgan, Redneck Yacht Club.

[00:05:45] I don't know.

[00:05:46] The lines are perfect.

[00:05:47] April 6th, 2024 is where you could have watched on Filo, of course.

[00:05:52] On Filo.

[00:05:53] And it went a little something like this.

[00:05:56] Meg is running what was, I don't know, her mom's book club.

[00:06:02] Now she co-owns it with her aunt.

[00:06:05] She's made some big changes since her mom's passed away.

[00:06:08] Apple Pay, blind date with a book club.

[00:06:12] That's what they say.

[00:06:13] She's nervous though that she's not going, that her aunt who's

[00:06:17] coming into town is not going to like all the changes that she

[00:06:19] made and is going to throw a little bit of a hissy fit.

[00:06:22] We then meet a best-selling author, Graham Sterling, who is wanting

[00:06:27] to do something new in his career.

[00:06:30] Even though he's supposed to be writing the eighth book in his

[00:06:33] very popular YA book series, he says, I want to do something

[00:06:38] new, historical romance is what I want to do.

[00:06:42] And so he actually has this book written.

[00:06:44] His agent's like, I don't want any part of this.

[00:06:46] Meg's being interviewed on the radio and is surprised that

[00:06:49] the interviewer only wants to talk about the blind date book club.

[00:06:52] It is huge, the blind date book club.

[00:06:54] Everybody's talking about it from around the world.

[00:06:56] And they're coming to this book club where you blind date and

[00:07:00] book and stuff.

[00:07:01] Graham is listening to the interview on the radio in the car

[00:07:07] and is taking a back when Meg is talking about this

[00:07:11] book club.

[00:07:12] He's like, this is exactly what I need.

[00:07:14] Coincidentally, they end up meeting when somebody asks Meg

[00:07:18] to take a picture of them.

[00:07:20] Graham just happens to be there and is like, oh my God, you, me,

[00:07:23] what?

[00:07:24] They get a picture taken with each other.

[00:07:26] He goes to the bookstore.

[00:07:28] They bump into each other again and she asks if he asked her

[00:07:32] if she would consider reading this book.

[00:07:36] And she's like, well, if I find the time, I guess maybe

[00:07:39] I can.

[00:07:40] And would you also mind maybe putting it into the blind date

[00:07:45] book club?

[00:07:47] And she's like, that's not, I don't think that's what I do.

[00:07:50] That's when he's like, OK, here's the deal.

[00:07:52] I'm actually, I'm Graham.

[00:07:55] I want to, I'm self-publishing this book.

[00:07:57] Please give it a shot.

[00:08:00] Why?

[00:08:01] Because she decides I'm going to give this a shot because

[00:08:05] her aunt wants out and she has to decide is this

[00:08:08] what I really want to do?

[00:08:09] I don't know.

[00:08:11] She immediately begins to consider going back to become

[00:08:14] a real estate agent.

[00:08:17] And it could be good for her.

[00:08:20] She and Graham hang out some more giving him feedback

[00:08:24] on his book.

[00:08:26] To thank her, he takes her out to dinner.

[00:08:28] They have a great time.

[00:08:30] He walks her home and they kiss.

[00:08:35] It's time for the book club where they're all going

[00:08:37] to talk about Graham's secret book.

[00:08:39] Now, him and Meg know that he is Graham.

[00:08:45] But the book is under a pseudonym.

[00:08:48] A pseudonym.

[00:08:50] And so everyone else doesn't know that this is written

[00:08:55] by a famous author.

[00:08:57] And they won't know.

[00:08:59] They don't like the book.

[00:09:02] They talk about that this book is trash, et cetera.

[00:09:06] And that's unfortunate.

[00:09:09] And then it comes out, hey guys, you may recognize me.

[00:09:14] I am Graham and I actually wrote the book.

[00:09:17] And now they're like, what is going on here?

[00:09:20] Can I have your address?

[00:09:22] Why did Meg pick this book?

[00:09:24] Is there some shenanigans?

[00:09:27] Your autograph.

[00:09:29] Your famous, can I have your address?

[00:09:31] Can I have your address?

[00:09:33] Your famous people, you mean?

[00:09:35] And they're like questioning her integrity of the book club.

[00:09:40] Why did she actually pick this book?

[00:09:42] In the heat of the moment, Meg says, you know what?

[00:09:45] I'm selling the book shop.

[00:09:48] Graham realizes that his book is trash.

[00:09:51] But has learned some lessons along the way

[00:09:55] and he applies those lessons to the eighth installment

[00:09:58] of the series which his agent absolutely loved.

[00:10:01] He's like, you know what?

[00:10:03] Polish that bad boy up.

[00:10:05] We'll see what we can do with it.

[00:10:07] Don't give up on your dreams.

[00:10:09] And after seeing how much the book club and the bookstore

[00:10:12] is meant to people, Meg decides that she wants to keep it.

[00:10:15] So Graham surprises her at the bookstore

[00:10:17] and is like, hey I told my sister about you.

[00:10:20] She's a big fan and I guess if she's a big fan

[00:10:23] we should give this a shot.

[00:10:25] And they're like, yay, let's do that.

[00:10:27] They kiss and now my friend was.

[00:10:30] I don't know enough about that melody to sing.

[00:10:36] I think you'd love it.

[00:10:38] Your big country music.

[00:10:40] It's a blind date.

[00:10:41] It's a blind date book club.

[00:10:43] It's a blind date book club.

[00:10:45] Let's get to having a blind date reading the book.

[00:10:48] It's a blind date book club.

[00:10:50] Drink it.

[00:10:51] We're gonna take a quick break.

[00:10:53] He goes away from it so quickly.

[00:10:56] I would say a quick break.

[00:10:58] Break this movie down with our four segments here on.

[00:11:01] Deck the Hallmark.

[00:11:03] Okay, that's not great.

[00:11:06] We all were a second late.

[00:11:08] Y'all I don't know about you.

[00:11:11] Hair thinning sucks.

[00:11:13] I'll say it.

[00:11:14] You'll say it.

[00:11:15] I'll put it out there.

[00:11:16] It's not a problem for you.

[00:11:17] It's not a problem for me.

[00:11:18] I look at you and I'm like, that sucks for you.

[00:11:20] Yeah, it does.

[00:11:21] Do you know how often that I'm just like,

[00:11:23] I'm gonna shave my head.

[00:11:24] I'm gonna shave my head.

[00:11:25] I just rather not deal with it.

[00:11:27] Well, I was gonna shave my head.

[00:11:28] You were?

[00:11:29] And then Nutrifull said, why don't you try this first?

[00:11:32] And I want to try a product that was bad for me.

[00:11:34] No.

[00:11:35] I didn't want to do that.

[00:11:36] No, you did not.

[00:11:37] But what they sent me is something that dermatologists recommend.

[00:11:39] It's the number one dermatologist recommend.

[00:11:41] Because it's a bunch of natural ingredients.

[00:11:43] It's not a bunch of chemicals.

[00:11:44] It's biotin.

[00:11:45] It's zinc.

[00:11:46] It's a bunch of vitamins.

[00:11:47] Oh, I love vitamins.

[00:11:49] You take it.

[00:11:50] It has been proven in men and women to make your hair thicker.

[00:11:54] That's right.

[00:11:55] And what you're taking is good for you.

[00:11:57] It's a supplement you can take every day.

[00:11:59] So it's win-win.

[00:12:00] So I've been trying it.

[00:12:01] My barber says he notices new hair growth patterns.

[00:12:03] And here's all you.

[00:12:04] Wait, do you guys actually know I've used Nutrifull but I paid for it?

[00:12:09] Wow.

[00:13:17] I couldn't start until you started.

[00:13:18] Yes.

[00:13:19] Somehow I was also late.

[00:13:21] It's a mystery.

[00:13:22] We're talking about Blind Date Book Club, the Saturday Night Hallmark Channel release,

[00:13:29] Aaron Cracow of course, the big movie premiere before the big close the heart premiere.

[00:13:34] Good synergy there I will say but is it enough to save this movie?

[00:13:39] Let's find out.

[00:13:40] It's time for the hot take.

[00:13:41] It is where we share exactly how he felt about this movie and I will start with

[00:13:44] you, Brian.

[00:13:45] What did you think of the Blind Date Book Club?

[00:13:48] Nice use of synergy first of all.

[00:13:50] Yeah, really nicely done.

[00:13:51] I'm synergetic.

[00:13:52] Obviously.

[00:13:53] No you lost it.

[00:13:54] You put the sin in synergy.

[00:13:56] Thank you.

[00:13:57] You were really proud of that.

[00:14:02] It was only okay.

[00:14:03] I was cutting the grass the other day and I remembered the test and testament.

[00:14:06] I was like I'm going to call that back sometime.

[00:14:08] Test and testimony.

[00:14:09] Whatever.

[00:14:10] Sure.

[00:14:11] So that worked out great.

[00:14:14] I feel like we were pretty hard on this one in the preview.

[00:14:17] Yeah.

[00:14:18] Because we didn't understand.

[00:14:19] There's a better movie there.

[00:14:20] Yeah.

[00:14:21] We didn't understand it all.

[00:14:22] Aaron, could you turn off the reactions that just happened again?

[00:14:24] They keep going on.

[00:14:25] No, you're fine.

[00:14:26] You're fine.

[00:14:27] And I was like we had a better, we liked this more when we thought it was a different

[00:14:31] type of movie and so I forget where it landed for me but I ended up really liking

[00:14:36] this movie and I felt like the problems we had were like this sounds like it should

[00:14:41] be a dating thing.

[00:14:42] Like they kind of joked about it in the like the NPR layer kept bringing it

[00:14:46] right.

[00:14:47] So it wasn't just us.

[00:14:48] But I will say I kept thinking they know there should, they know that this would be a better

[00:14:53] movie if it was like right.

[00:14:55] They even know it.

[00:14:56] Exactly.

[00:14:57] So they joked about it instead of making it.

[00:14:58] Right.

[00:14:59] It's a weird move.

[00:15:00] Yeah.

[00:15:01] But they did know it.

[00:15:02] You're right.

[00:15:03] So that, that I was surprised.

[00:15:04] I was pleasantly surprised.

[00:15:05] The reading community, I feel like it did like it was great owed to readers and

[00:15:09] to writers.

[00:15:10] It was a great ode to readers.

[00:15:11] Yeah.

[00:15:12] Like they did a good job representing how much it they owe.

[00:15:15] I love that you are speaking for and I want to get this reading and writing community and

[00:15:20] the writing community.

[00:15:21] Literally most of the developed earth.

[00:15:24] Yeah.

[00:15:25] Yeah.

[00:15:26] I feel like I got enough.

[00:15:27] They did well by six billion of them.

[00:15:32] They were doing what's right for the six billion.

[00:15:34] I'm working on being included in this.

[00:15:36] You're almost there.

[00:15:37] You're almost there.

[00:15:38] I'm working on it.

[00:15:39] You're almost there.

[00:15:40] Well, I think, hey, I think you're included.

[00:15:41] I'm going to speak for 75% of the plane of earth.

[00:15:43] Yeah.

[00:15:44] So I feel like they did a good job.

[00:15:45] Like it made me want to be around the, in the reading community more than I already am.

[00:15:51] So good job.

[00:15:53] Like I said, they, they,

[00:15:54] You gotta get reading community shirts.

[00:15:56] I think at some point.

[00:15:58] You know what I was glad about?

[00:15:59] They didn't stretch out the lie.

[00:16:01] His name.

[00:16:02] Yeah.

[00:16:03] They didn't.

[00:16:04] That was nice.

[00:16:05] That was a nice,

[00:16:06] It showed a lot of integrity there.

[00:16:07] So yeah.

[00:16:08] And she had some, I feel like she had some stakes here.

[00:16:09] Her credibility was really at stake.

[00:16:10] Rivire.

[00:16:11] Yeah.

[00:16:12] I think Rivire Rib-Eye is where she was out there.

[00:16:14] So yeah, I ended up liking it more than I expected.

[00:16:16] I was pleasantly surprised at a real good time.

[00:16:18] Me and the reading community.

[00:16:19] Yeah.

[00:16:20] I liked it a lot.

[00:16:21] Um, yeah.

[00:16:22] You're big for all oxygen.

[00:16:23] Listen, I guess I'm now a part of the reading community because I also enjoyed this movie.

[00:16:29] Um, I, I've said it before.

[00:16:31] I don't think that there's anybody on the network that plays the, this guy's,

[00:16:37] I like this guy face more than Krakow.

[00:16:40] She just really does that.

[00:16:41] Yeah.

[00:16:42] Oh my gosh, this guy.

[00:16:43] And, um, it's hard not to be like, this is, she's charming.

[00:16:47] She's charming in this movie.

[00:16:49] She's charming and all the things that she does.

[00:16:51] Um, I don't know if I necessarily bought the two of them even by the end of this

[00:16:56] movie as, as people that are in, you know, strong like with each other.

[00:17:01] But, uh, I was surprised by this movie.

[00:17:05] I did quite enjoy it.

[00:17:06] It was, um, it was a slow pace movie, but it didn't feel boring.

[00:17:12] It just felt like this is nice.

[00:17:14] It was nice.

[00:17:15] Um, much like whatever city it is that they are Nantucket, a nice little town.

[00:17:22] It's nice.

[00:17:23] It's not boring.

[00:17:24] It's very nice.

[00:17:25] Nice.

[00:17:26] And that's how I felt about this movie.

[00:17:28] Uh, I quite enjoyed it.

[00:17:29] Dan.

[00:17:30] Yeah.

[00:17:31] I was kind of into this movie through the first date.

[00:17:34] I think when they kiss at the end of that first date, I was like, are they making a

[00:17:39] really like quality like movie here?

[00:17:42] And then I realized there was still like 32 minutes left in this thing.

[00:17:46] And then at that point it kind of shifts gears into a very formulaic what you

[00:17:53] expect from hallmark and somehow it slows down too.

[00:17:57] And so the first 60% or so I was on board with, I like Buckley and

[00:18:02] and Craig co.

[00:18:03] Normally I think Robert Buckley is funny first and not usually like best chemistry

[00:18:08] necessarily with, with, with the other leads.

[00:18:11] But in this movie, I actually thought their chemistry was fine.

[00:18:13] If not really good, uh, that kiss at the end of the first date felt like two grown

[00:18:17] adults who had just gone on a first date.

[00:18:19] That made a lot of sense.

[00:18:20] I thought it was a good kiss.

[00:18:21] I thought it was a great kiss.

[00:18:22] And then at, and then at the end of this after that just about wait after

[00:18:27] that happens, I felt like the last 32 minutes of this movie was really,

[00:18:32] really stupid.

[00:18:33] Just like you got to find what made you write these seven YA novels somewhere

[00:18:38] in you again and I'm selling the bookstore.

[00:18:41] No, I'm not a dumb misunderstanding.

[00:18:43] The way the bookstore finds out is he really famous?

[00:18:46] Is he not?

[00:18:47] So the last 32 minutes, I kind of hated the first 45 50.

[00:18:51] I was really on board with all that to say this crop of movies this

[00:18:56] year hasn't been great.

[00:18:57] And so this, if I'm ranking them, this has to be up there near the top right

[00:19:02] now because I think the first 45 or 50 minutes were, were that strong.

[00:19:06] And then I liked a lot of what they did.

[00:19:08] They didn't like let the name thing go in too long with her.

[00:19:11] I thought that was really good.

[00:19:12] And then I thought the last 30 minutes of this fell completely apart.

[00:19:16] And I, that was unfortunate.

[00:19:17] And I like that his book, the book sucked.

[00:19:19] And it like, it wasn't like, Hey, just, it wasn't just Aaron.

[00:19:22] It wasn't just for Cal.

[00:19:23] Well then let's do it.

[00:19:24] It's time for all the fields.

[00:19:25] Dan kick us off.

[00:19:26] Please.

[00:19:27] The fact that they just let this guy who's a professional and is

[00:19:31] successful, just have written a bad book is great.

[00:19:36] Like I can't overstate the fact that that just doesn't happen in

[00:19:39] these movies.

[00:19:40] You don't have somebody who is like, he's confident, bordering

[00:19:43] on arrogant.

[00:19:44] He's good.

[00:19:45] He knows he's good.

[00:19:46] He's well spoken.

[00:19:47] He's successful at his job and dude just wrote a bad book.

[00:19:50] Like you keep thinking that the, the savior is coming.

[00:19:54] No pun intended.

[00:19:55] Nope.

[00:19:56] But there's no horn.

[00:19:57] There's no horn.

[00:19:58] You think it's going to happen?

[00:20:00] No book sucks.

[00:20:01] It's bad.

[00:20:02] Even when the people find out who he is, one of the readers

[00:20:07] is like, you're a great writer, not this, but that's right.

[00:20:11] Your other books.

[00:20:12] Yeah.

[00:20:13] And so I appreciated that he just had to figure out a way

[00:20:15] to be honest with himself and go, you know what, this

[00:20:17] isn't very good.

[00:20:18] And that's, that is, that is a level of character and

[00:20:22] integrity that a homework typically does not show.

[00:20:24] So I really appreciated that.

[00:20:26] Brian.

[00:20:27] Yeah.

[00:20:28] Mine is sort of tangential to that.

[00:20:29] And it's, I can't say that here.

[00:20:30] Yeah.

[00:20:31] Tangential sounds like it.

[00:20:32] It was gentle though.

[00:20:33] It was like, it was gentle.

[00:20:35] It's kind of gentle.

[00:20:37] It was somebody.

[00:20:39] There's some go ahead.

[00:20:40] Yeah.

[00:20:41] We'll get back to that.

[00:20:42] It was just getting feedback from somebody on something

[00:20:45] you created was my feels him.

[00:20:47] Like being able to sit with somebody and have them like,

[00:20:49] okay, this is exactly what I thought.

[00:20:51] And he's literally taking notes on her just tearing his work

[00:20:54] apart.

[00:20:55] And then he gets to sit there anonymously.

[00:20:57] Can I say that?

[00:20:58] Yes.

[00:20:59] And here people talk about his stuff without knowing it's

[00:21:01] him.

[00:21:02] So gloves are off.

[00:21:03] Yeah.

[00:21:04] That whole, I love, yes.

[00:21:05] It's like a 10 in your funeral.

[00:21:06] It's really like a great bit.

[00:21:07] I love that.

[00:21:08] I was so jealous of that.

[00:21:09] Hey, Aaron, what are your thoughts on when Brian

[00:21:12] comes in and gives you feedback on graphics that

[00:21:15] you're working on?

[00:21:16] We have to do this here.

[00:21:18] You think you're going to throw up right now?

[00:21:23] I'm making a mess of the time.

[00:21:26] Sure are.

[00:21:27] Yeah.

[00:21:28] So Brian has this knack where I am just about ready to hit

[00:21:31] download on a graphic that I've been working on pretty much

[00:21:34] all day.

[00:21:35] And Brian would be like, so what do you do?

[00:21:38] Change in this and I'm like, so placeholder you got

[00:21:41] up there or are we going to add some real stuff for

[00:21:44] every time he just comes in, looks at it for five seconds.

[00:21:47] I see where you're going, but you're not done yet.

[00:21:49] Right?

[00:21:50] But at least he's a get at least he's not just a taker.

[00:21:53] He's a giver to he, you know, he's not one of those people

[00:21:56] that's like, hey, love me the way I want to be loved.

[00:21:59] And I'm just gonna do anything.

[00:22:00] That's true.

[00:22:01] He practices what he won't preach.

[00:22:03] True.

[00:22:04] Yes.

[00:22:05] He dishes it right out for better or worse.

[00:22:06] Mostly worse.

[00:22:07] Yeah.

[00:22:08] I love the shots of when she walks inside after the kiss.

[00:22:12] She goes and leans up against the wall and you can see him

[00:22:15] still outside and it's a really cool way to show both of them

[00:22:19] and how they're responding in that moment.

[00:22:21] And I thought that was really, really well done.

[00:22:23] It's like a real life both hands.

[00:22:24] Oh yes.

[00:22:25] Not it's like a split screen, but one of the better shots

[00:22:30] we've seen all year.

[00:22:31] Yeah.

[00:22:32] Really, really good.

[00:22:33] That was that was decent.

[00:22:34] Okay.

[00:22:35] Yeah.

[00:22:36] Thanks.

[00:22:37] Still up there next time.

[00:22:38] Like not.

[00:22:39] Wow.

[00:22:41] Wow.

[00:22:42] Came all the way back down.

[00:22:43] Let's say a quick break.

[00:22:45] We'll come back.

[00:22:46] We'll get to the way what the what the hallmark here on deck.

[00:22:48] The home.

[00:22:49] Brian.

[00:22:52] Let's try to jump way early on that.

[00:22:54] I was right with him.

[00:22:58] What's up everybody?

[00:22:59] Everybody is having a good time.

[00:23:02] Nope.

[00:23:05] I know I'm having a good time.

[00:23:07] I'm watching this movie on Milo.

[00:23:10] I'm loving my life.

[00:23:12] You can watch this episode on Milo.

[00:23:14] Follow that TV slash DTH.

[00:23:17] Let's get to the way what it is where we share our moments

[00:23:21] in this movie that made us go, wait, what?

[00:23:23] Right.

[00:23:24] Yeah.

[00:23:25] Just real quick.

[00:23:26] I'm just going to breeze by someone would definitely

[00:23:28] recognize his face.

[00:23:29] Yes.

[00:23:30] Somebody in a book like somebody at some point,

[00:23:32] you can either have him famous enough to recognize or

[00:23:36] not.

[00:23:37] Yeah.

[00:23:38] You can't do both.

[00:23:39] They're just playing roulette with this.

[00:23:42] Don't worry about it.

[00:23:44] His face is on every book.

[00:23:45] My thing is he's clearly not famous enough to be mulled in

[00:23:48] the street because he's walking wherever he goes.

[00:23:50] No one ever bothers him.

[00:23:52] So I had a problem with him being recognized at all.

[00:23:55] That's where I stood on it.

[00:23:56] But also you just can't have it both ways.

[00:23:59] Yeah.

[00:24:00] The reserving spots in a bar can't be a thing like in

[00:24:05] society at the actual bar itself.

[00:24:07] At the bar.

[00:24:08] Like yes, because via sign you can't do that.

[00:24:13] Like I...

[00:24:14] Yes.

[00:24:15] Go ahead.

[00:24:16] I just assumed it was because he was a famous author

[00:24:19] like he called it.

[00:24:20] It shouldn't matter because here's why.

[00:24:22] It's Nantucket.

[00:24:23] It's a small town.

[00:24:24] Here's what they want.

[00:24:25] The way I understood that was he's a big deal and got

[00:24:28] a reservation which doesn't make sense because no one

[00:24:31] recognizes him.

[00:24:32] But he decided to do that at the bar which is super

[00:24:36] public in front of everybody.

[00:24:38] Yeah.

[00:24:39] With a reserved sign.

[00:24:40] Yeah.

[00:24:41] Did he go in there and just write that there?

[00:24:43] Exactly where it was.

[00:24:44] It was unbelievable.

[00:24:45] Like I didn't talk to anybody at the Nantucket

[00:24:48] restaurant.

[00:24:49] Just read in.

[00:24:50] I think he went there earlier in the evening.

[00:24:52] Put those down and said...

[00:24:54] Open for the best.

[00:24:56] Like hopefully no one moves them.

[00:24:57] The problem with that is I'm anxious enough walking

[00:25:00] into any restaurant space where you got to figure out

[00:25:03] what you're doing.

[00:25:04] At least a bar I always know.

[00:25:07] You know why that's funny?

[00:25:08] It's because it's so true.

[00:25:09] I'm looking at it and I'm like I don't know what to do.

[00:25:11] At least in a bar, you always know.

[00:25:13] Bars are free for all.

[00:25:15] Another good prank TV would be is we all decide to go

[00:25:18] and do something weird at restaurant to see if he

[00:25:21] doesn't.

[00:25:22] We all go on the floor and do something like we

[00:25:25] start singing our Christmas tree or just do something

[00:25:27] you have to hit the head real quick.

[00:25:29] Or we just move this entire office and don't tell him.

[00:25:32] I don't know what to do man.

[00:25:34] We fire him.

[00:25:36] He calls ahead and asks for a blueprint of the

[00:25:40] establishment before going to.

[00:25:42] I know this might be...

[00:25:44] I've driven to places and there's not been a clear

[00:25:46] spot to park and I've just driven home.

[00:25:48] Like I've done this move where I'm like I'm

[00:25:50] not dealing with this.

[00:25:51] So you walk, like if you walk into a bar and

[00:25:53] the bar should be sacred.

[00:25:54] Like it should always be...

[00:25:56] First come, first served.

[00:25:57] Yes.

[00:25:58] And then bring them like what am I going to do?

[00:26:00] If I see that they're reserving bar seats it is a

[00:26:03] place that I'm probably not.

[00:26:05] Yeah you don't want to be there.

[00:26:07] And lobster ice cream get out of here.

[00:26:09] That's disgusting.

[00:26:10] I wrote down lobster ice cream.

[00:26:12] I don't want any part of it.

[00:26:14] Lobster ice cream is disgusting.

[00:26:16] What I'm trying to in my mouth think about how

[00:26:19] it would be and I don't want it to be.

[00:26:21] No, no it's got to be grosser than...

[00:26:23] What do we have the hot dog candy canes?

[00:26:25] The hot dog and then we had some sort of

[00:26:27] like a little bit of a juggling.

[00:26:28] It has to be worse than that.

[00:26:29] So gross.

[00:26:30] So that's enough for me.

[00:26:33] So he has a good relationship with his sister and

[00:26:36] you know he talks on the phone with her on a

[00:26:38] regular basis.

[00:26:39] Does get the thumbs up approval that he needs

[00:26:43] to date her at the end.

[00:26:45] But she does a thing where he's on the

[00:26:48] phone with her and she's like no one's here

[00:26:51] right now and he's like well why don't I go

[00:26:54] and you can have the night to yourself and

[00:26:56] she's like no but whisper.

[00:26:58] And then I have a whisper conversation and

[00:27:00] I just didn't like it.

[00:27:02] I just by and large didn't enjoy that

[00:27:05] and I just want to put it on the record.

[00:27:07] I didn't know it was a thing that I didn't like.

[00:27:09] I don't like apparently hearing two people

[00:27:11] whisper on TV.

[00:27:12] I don't want any part of that.

[00:27:13] And so I just wanted to put it out there in

[00:27:14] the universe.

[00:27:15] This radio host is fascinating because

[00:27:18] this radio host is somebody who goes

[00:27:22] to a bookstore and interviews somebody

[00:27:24] live on the radio.

[00:27:26] She's great.

[00:27:27] She's also a radio person that does

[00:27:30] apparently long form hard hitting

[00:27:34] journalism.

[00:27:35] She's like going back and I'm getting a follow

[00:27:37] up but this isn't live anymore.

[00:27:39] I'm now researching.

[00:27:41] I've gone from doing the live interviews to

[00:27:44] now being the person who's doing long

[00:27:47] long form investigative research on

[00:27:52] book stores and then talk it.

[00:27:54] And she's just a fascinating person to be

[00:27:57] that person exist.

[00:28:01] No one else in the book club read the

[00:28:04] book aside from the one couple that was

[00:28:07] giving the feedback.

[00:28:08] No one after the first roast or the thing.

[00:28:10] It may have something to do with

[00:28:11] everybody else being extras but I'm

[00:28:13] not convinced that any of them read the

[00:28:15] book and it's probably for the best

[00:28:17] because it was garbage.

[00:28:19] But Dan you mentioned that you thought it

[00:28:22] was a good kiss.

[00:28:23] I thought the idea was good.

[00:28:28] Didn't think it was a good kiss at all.

[00:28:30] In fact, I have seen spicier kisses in

[00:28:34] the 1910s where they were in Cranko

[00:28:38] then right here in this movie.

[00:28:40] Not spicy, not good, didn't like it.

[00:28:43] I thought that kiss was better than the

[00:28:45] kiss at the end.

[00:28:46] Yeah I didn't think either of them were good.

[00:28:48] I thought the kiss at the end was a little suspect.

[00:28:50] Listen, I think that's why I had a hard time

[00:28:53] with the chemistry.

[00:28:54] I like it when they're talking and then

[00:28:55] they start kissing.

[00:28:56] I'm like you two don't like each other.

[00:28:58] That was my vibe.

[00:29:00] I'm just saying what I'm saying.

[00:29:02] I don't like hard kisses and I don't

[00:29:04] like bad kisses.

[00:29:05] I didn't get that vibe at all man but good for

[00:29:07] you.

[00:29:08] Fine, fine.

[00:29:09] I'm just vibing.

[00:29:11] Dan you go.

[00:29:12] You're not speaking for him.

[00:29:14] You're speaking for the reading community.

[00:29:16] Right.

[00:29:17] Okay just make it true.

[00:29:18] Absolutely.

[00:29:19] I don't think they know what national

[00:29:22] public radio is in this movie.

[00:29:24] They say national public radio several times

[00:29:26] because I can only assume they can't say

[00:29:28] NPR that's the best I can figure.

[00:29:31] NPR does not go live on a random Tuesday.

[00:29:34] They don't.

[00:29:35] The structure of this entire movie is built

[00:29:38] on Robert Buckley's character

[00:29:40] listening to NPR and catching a live

[00:29:43] radio broadcast.

[00:29:45] No.

[00:29:46] No.

[00:29:47] The reason I know that is is

[00:29:49] Brandon and I have a little bit of

[00:29:51] experience with our local NPR station

[00:29:54] and the amount of time they take to

[00:29:57] make sure everything sounds exactly how

[00:30:00] they want it to sound is impressive.

[00:30:03] That's a little hostility there.

[00:30:04] No, no, no.

[00:30:05] It's great.

[00:30:06] They're not going to send.

[00:30:07] It's okay but can we just get one more.

[00:30:09] One more take.

[00:30:10] It's tangent.

[00:30:11] It's tangent.

[00:30:12] Yeah.

[00:30:13] We're here for everybody.

[00:30:14] They're not just the tangent.

[00:30:16] No, of course.

[00:30:17] But the thing is that they're not going to

[00:30:19] send any hosts in there just to

[00:30:21] free will interview somebody live.

[00:30:23] They're not going to do that.

[00:30:25] So the fact that Buckley hears it is crazy.

[00:30:27] My next way what is a really positive

[00:30:29] weight what Nantucket

[00:30:31] is 85% white.

[00:30:34] That is the actual demographic.

[00:30:36] We have found in Nantucket

[00:30:38] the most diverse bookstore

[00:30:41] in Nantucket's ever seen.

[00:30:44] It is unbelievable considering how 8.5

[00:30:46] out of every 10 people you see

[00:30:48] in Nantucket are white.

[00:30:49] This bookstore is like

[00:30:51] where everyone that isn't white

[00:30:53] hangs out in one bookstore.

[00:30:55] Very, very impressive.

[00:30:56] It's almost like it was actually

[00:30:58] Canada.

[00:30:59] The room where they meet,

[00:31:01] where Buckley meets his boss

[00:31:03] when they first walk in,

[00:31:05] you see a big picture in the background

[00:31:07] of his book series, Parachutes and whatever.

[00:31:10] Yeah, whatever it is. Parachutes and hangovers.

[00:31:12] Shoot some, yeah, shoot some models.

[00:31:14] And I thought it was like on a TV screen

[00:31:16] they were doing just to like pump him up.

[00:31:18] And then as they're talking in that board room

[00:31:20] you see that it's not their actual posters

[00:31:22] and they've, they cover

[00:31:24] every wall in there.

[00:31:27] Why?

[00:31:28] It's a big deal.

[00:31:29] I understood but what else are they using that

[00:31:31] is it just the Buckley room?

[00:31:33] Like it's just the room where we put

[00:31:35] all of the posters from this

[00:31:37] seven book series.

[00:31:38] You know what would be funny if that changed

[00:31:40] when he wasn't like, if they did that for him?

[00:31:42] Well, that was my thing is I thought it, but no,

[00:31:44] it's a, but then later we see the room again.

[00:31:46] Same thing.

[00:31:47] And it has turned into his boss,

[00:31:49] his agent's office.

[00:31:50] His agent now has a desk in there

[00:31:52] but it's the same room.

[00:31:54] So you know, be better there I guess.

[00:31:57] At one point her friend

[00:31:59] who does recognize Graham Sterling

[00:32:01] is writing and Graham

[00:32:03] comes in and goes, are you writing?

[00:32:05] And she goes, can you call it that if you don't get paid?

[00:32:08] Yes.

[00:32:11] That is more offensive to the writing community

[00:32:14] than Brian speaking for the reading community.

[00:32:16] Wow.

[00:32:17] Most writers aren't paid.

[00:32:18] I'm here to speak on behalf of them and they're okay with that.

[00:32:21] You would have more cred to speak on behalf

[00:32:23] of the writing community I think than the reading community.

[00:32:25] Maybe.

[00:32:26] Yeah.

[00:32:27] I'll do that too then.

[00:32:28] Yes it is.

[00:32:29] I cannot believe that we got to me

[00:32:31] and no one mentioned that somehow Graham Sterling

[00:32:33] door dashed an open air basket of muffins.

[00:32:36] He door dash delivered in the morning

[00:32:39] a open air, those muffins could have been anywhere.

[00:32:43] I'm not a germaphobe but if I open my door to someone

[00:32:47] that's rung the doorbell and left and I don't see them

[00:32:50] and there's a basket of muffins

[00:32:52] with no top on them and no label of where they came from

[00:32:55] not eating those muffins.

[00:32:58] Especially if there's a note in calligraphy

[00:33:01] on top of those muffins.

[00:33:03] What kind of muffins?

[00:33:05] You're good?

[00:33:07] Chocolate chip.

[00:33:08] Oh yeah.

[00:33:09] You're in.

[00:33:10] It's a basket of open air muffins.

[00:33:12] You don't know where they came from.

[00:33:14] You guys are in.

[00:33:15] What if they're still warm?

[00:33:17] Three out of four here.

[00:33:19] I'm trying the muffins.

[00:33:20] Okay, good for you guys.

[00:33:21] Last but not least.

[00:33:22] Throwing out the calligraphy.

[00:33:24] If it's coffee cake.

[00:33:26] Forget about that.

[00:33:28] You could just inject those with diseases.

[00:33:31] Yeah, I would eat them.

[00:33:33] At least I'd die happy.

[00:33:35] Last but not least and this is one that I just was like

[00:33:38] I'm trying to forgive and I can't.

[00:33:40] So his new book is a historical romance.

[00:33:43] So it takes place in the past and it's a romance.

[00:33:45] And people keep talking about how they didn't feel the romance.

[00:33:48] And he finally says,

[00:33:50] I'm going to give this book another shot.

[00:33:52] I have to live it first.

[00:33:54] You cannot live in the past.

[00:33:56] You can't do it.

[00:33:57] You cannot live a historically based romance.

[00:34:01] You can't do that.

[00:34:03] I think he meant specifically the romance part of it.

[00:34:06] I'm sure that's what he meant,

[00:34:07] but that's not what he said and that's not why the movie was bad.

[00:34:10] I thought that too though.

[00:34:11] It was real stupid.

[00:34:12] Like real stupid.

[00:34:13] The problem was what you don't know is

[00:34:15] is he's close to figuring out time travel.

[00:34:18] He's close.

[00:34:19] Of course.

[00:34:20] He's exciting.

[00:34:21] I just got to work through it.

[00:34:22] Got to write through it.

[00:34:23] That's right.

[00:34:24] It's time for what the homework is where we wonder

[00:34:25] if we can maybe have it.

[00:34:26] Give us any questions that we still have.

[00:34:27] Brian.

[00:34:28] Yeah.

[00:34:29] I just one thing that all the sort of kept taking me out

[00:34:31] was why was she so worried about going on her own?

[00:34:34] Like this seemed like this shop was pretty established by now.

[00:34:38] Yeah.

[00:34:39] Like the place is always packed.

[00:34:40] Yes.

[00:34:41] For a bookstore.

[00:34:42] You kidding me?

[00:34:43] All these great events.

[00:34:44] Like what's why what is the big deal that the aunt wants out?

[00:34:47] Like you, you've been in business dozens of years.

[00:34:50] I don't know.

[00:34:51] Her mom started it.

[00:34:52] Like she easily get a loan to do this on her own.

[00:34:54] I can't imagine she would even need to.

[00:34:56] So I just was like, what's the big deal?

[00:34:59] Like this place runs itself at this point.

[00:35:01] You know,

[00:35:02] It's a Monday book club.

[00:35:03] That's what it is.

[00:35:04] I want to take you guys back to the initial meet cute on the

[00:35:10] wall or whatever.

[00:35:12] What was he doing there?

[00:35:14] Because there's a family.

[00:35:16] Weird meet.

[00:35:17] There's it was a weird meet.

[00:35:18] There's a family out.

[00:35:20] There's a family.

[00:35:21] There's Aaron Cracow and this family says, can you take a picture

[00:35:25] and and and he's just kind of like this.

[00:35:28] Standing there.

[00:35:30] I don't know what he's doing.

[00:35:32] No.

[00:35:33] And then he's I don't I don't know.

[00:35:35] I don't know what he's doing.

[00:35:38] Especially because the only reason he is in this town is

[00:35:43] because he heard an interview on the radio.

[00:35:46] When in the club.

[00:35:48] Go straight to the book.

[00:35:49] Go to the bookstore.

[00:35:50] Yes.

[00:35:51] He's over there to stand and all look up.

[00:35:53] Look at that.

[00:35:54] Would you look at that?

[00:35:55] Would you look at that?

[00:35:56] Would you look at this?

[00:35:57] Would you look at that?

[00:35:58] It was a I don't even really know what the what the hallmark

[00:36:02] is other than.

[00:36:03] That was weird right?

[00:36:04] Right.

[00:36:05] What you looking at there?

[00:36:07] What you looking at there?

[00:36:08] No, my what the hallmark is what you looking at?

[00:36:10] What you looking at?

[00:36:11] Yeah, looking at them.

[00:36:12] Um, yeah.

[00:36:13] Why can't we pay the child actors in this movie?

[00:36:16] There is several scenes with Graham Sterling's nieces and

[00:36:21] they never talk.

[00:36:22] And then they're sitting at the table for breakfast the

[00:36:24] morning that she gets the Door Dash open air basket of

[00:36:26] muffins.

[00:36:27] Delicious looking muffins.

[00:36:28] And she's like, all right, we've got we've got a we've got

[00:36:32] this and this for breakfast.

[00:36:33] And we've pan over the kids silent.

[00:36:35] And you know how kids when they sit at bar stools very

[00:36:38] well behaved notoriously silent notoriously.

[00:36:41] No one makes a sound.

[00:36:42] No one does better with bar stools.

[00:36:45] Kids are amazing especially you get them to swivel.

[00:36:48] Kids couldn't be more still and quiet.

[00:36:50] It is like, man, it's better than video games really get a

[00:36:53] couple of them next to each other too.

[00:36:55] Oh my gosh.

[00:36:56] They don't instigate at all.

[00:36:57] So then I'm like these originally as a way what these

[00:36:59] are the quietest kids ever as soon as she walks outside

[00:37:02] to retrieve set open air basket of muffins.

[00:37:04] Then we hear audio of kids screaming guys.

[00:37:10] Why are we doing that?

[00:37:12] The kids had to be on set.

[00:37:14] Like what was it?

[00:37:15] Were we that close on budget that these kids had to be there

[00:37:18] and they couldn't get a line or two like to say they were

[00:37:21] in a movie.

[00:37:22] It just seemed weird.

[00:37:23] Kids are extra.

[00:37:24] Kids are extra.

[00:37:25] They're extra.

[00:37:26] They're extra.

[00:37:27] We did everybody congratulations.

[00:37:29] The good news is not the last movie of the week because

[00:37:31] we got a Hannah Swinson Apple movie to talk about.

[00:37:35] Which coincidentally this movie also talked about

[00:37:38] apples big week for apples big week for apples.

[00:37:40] Is it a five?

[00:37:41] Is it are we in fall harvest already?

[00:37:43] No.

[00:37:44] Are we double-decker the week?

[00:37:45] I guess we could.

[00:37:46] Are we ready for it?

[00:37:47] Let's find out.

[00:37:48] It's time for the double-decker of the week.

[00:37:50] Is where we do the deep dive into the life of one of

[00:37:54] our double-deckers and signed up at brandwildgenplus.com

[00:37:57] at the double-decker tier or higher.

[00:37:59] Dan, who do we have today?

[00:38:01] We have Colleen Sullivan.

[00:38:03] Wow.

[00:38:04] Colleen Sullivan.

[00:38:05] Great.

[00:38:06] Wow.

[00:38:07] That's exciting.

[00:38:08] Brian you have been handed the keys to the Google Plus

[00:38:11] to try and do this deep dive.

[00:38:13] Last week couldn't have gone worse.

[00:38:14] You walked in.

[00:38:15] Try to like bring it back.

[00:38:16] You walked in today though with a bit of a smirk on

[00:38:19] your face.

[00:38:20] I have a feeling in this.

[00:38:22] Something to do with the double-decker of the week.

[00:38:26] Tell me about it.

[00:38:27] Yeah.

[00:38:28] Well, Colleen Sullivan.

[00:38:30] She has an idea for something.

[00:38:34] Amazing.

[00:38:35] She's got an idea everybody.

[00:38:37] She's got an idea and it's a really good idea.

[00:38:39] It's something that like the way she explained it to me,

[00:38:42] I was part of the focus group.

[00:38:43] You were in the focus group.

[00:38:44] Super exciting.

[00:38:45] Didn't even mention it to us.

[00:38:46] That's unbelievable.

[00:38:47] I would try to hold this back.

[00:38:48] Yeah.

[00:38:49] Huh?

[00:38:50] Focus group.

[00:38:51] No, focus group.

[00:38:52] I just didn't know that.

[00:38:53] I paid to be in focus group.

[00:38:54] Oh, you paid for that?

[00:38:55] Oh yeah.

[00:38:56] Yeah.

[00:38:57] Oh yeah.

[00:38:58] Oh yeah.

[00:38:59] I also actually got so much money.

[00:39:00] He just didn't even know the streams of revenue

[00:39:02] this guy has.

[00:39:03] I got some shares in this business actually.

[00:39:04] So let's be nice.

[00:39:05] You know if you got some little stuff hanging around,

[00:39:07] like get, you know, you don't want to give me that example.

[00:39:10] Hand to write these.

[00:39:11] You got to be quick and get some little stuff.

[00:39:13] What do you mean little stuff?

[00:39:14] I have found little stuff is the easiest stuff to put away.

[00:39:16] Just break it in a drawer.

[00:39:18] But you want to take it with you.

[00:39:19] Have it handy.

[00:39:20] You just put it in a bag.

[00:39:21] You didn't say take it with you.

[00:39:22] Yeah, you put it away into something.

[00:39:23] You don't want to hold it in your hands.

[00:39:24] You would like some coins or some goldfish.

[00:39:26] But you don't want it to get lost in the shuffle.

[00:39:28] You get a bag.

[00:39:29] So Colleen came up with this product.

[00:39:30] Get a bag.

[00:39:31] It's a take on a bag.

[00:39:33] Is it like a tiny, tiny, tiny little thing.

[00:39:36] Right?

[00:39:37] The name is important.

[00:39:38] You'll get it when you say it.

[00:39:40] You put stuff in and you take it with you.

[00:39:42] I'll get it when I say it.

[00:39:44] When Brian said it, I'll get it until I say it.

[00:39:46] No, that's fine.

[00:39:47] I'll say it.

[00:39:48] You'll get it.

[00:39:49] You're going to get it.

[00:39:50] The one thing she's a little concerned about.

[00:39:52] Little concerned that has it been long enough?

[00:39:54] Has it been long enough?

[00:39:56] Let's find out.

[00:39:57] The name of her product, smallpox.

[00:40:00] Ooh.

[00:40:01] Ooh.

[00:40:03] Just like small little pockets.

[00:40:05] I can see you're struggling with getting it.

[00:40:07] Go ahead and say it.

[00:40:08] Smallpox.

[00:40:09] I got it.

[00:40:10] I got it.

[00:40:11] It took a second.

[00:40:12] So little.

[00:40:13] What is it?

[00:40:14] So Colleen decided.

[00:40:15] Yeah.

[00:40:16] In order to store.

[00:40:17] A long time ago she had this idea.

[00:40:20] She's going to name it after a disease?

[00:40:23] No.

[00:40:24] This was probably before the disease came out that she thought of this idea.

[00:40:27] You know what?

[00:40:28] She had another idea.

[00:40:29] Yeah.

[00:40:30] It was where two people could share the cost of a rental at Blockbuster.

[00:40:33] It was called COVID.

[00:40:34] That doesn't sound as cool.

[00:40:36] I can't wait until she comes out with those quarter.

[00:40:39] Too soon?

[00:40:40] Should we wait until you're 3,000 for that one?

[00:40:42] The timing is important.

[00:40:43] I can't wait until she comes up with the quarter-sized salt teens called quarantine.

[00:40:47] It's going to be amazing.

[00:40:49] Colleen, write that down.

[00:40:50] It's going to be unbelievable.

[00:40:51] So like I said, the focus group is working but I feel like it's...

[00:40:54] She came up with a beer called Beans.

[00:40:56] ...is it working?

[00:40:57] It's throwing in.

[00:40:58] So they're small pocket?

[00:40:59] Small pockets.

[00:41:00] Yeah.

[00:41:01] And the problem...

[00:41:02] That detach from your purse?

[00:41:03] Any of them are not available.

[00:41:04] Yeah, you could Velcro.

[00:41:05] You could sew them.

[00:41:06] You do whatever.

[00:41:07] Put them all over their pockets.

[00:41:08] So it doesn't come pre-done for you?

[00:41:09] No.

[00:41:10] You put them on wherever you want them.

[00:41:11] Colleen, it sounds like the worst idea I've ever heard.

[00:41:13] What's the focus group saying so far?

[00:41:15] They like it.

[00:41:16] It's a little split down the middle.

[00:41:17] Where were you on it?

[00:41:18] The heavy hitters.

[00:41:19] What can you say that?

[00:41:20] Since I...

[00:41:21] Like I mentioned, I have a little stake in this.

[00:41:23] I'm all in on this small pocket.

[00:41:25] Unfortunately...

[00:41:26] Ryan is all in on small pockets.

[00:41:28] Taking the pain out of it and so are all of us.

[00:41:30] The rapture is coming every time anything shakes.

[00:41:33] And Brian is all in on small pockets.

[00:41:35] You heard it here before.

[00:41:36] As you should be too.

[00:41:37] Please like and subscribe.

[00:41:38] Thanks, Colleen, for such a great show.

[00:41:40] I didn't say anything about the rapture.

[00:41:41] I just said Jesus is coming back.

[00:41:43] People get ready.

[00:41:44] No poor...
