Diggin Dennis Dugan: Happy Gilmore
How much do you want to know about Happy Gilmore (1996)? Because Timbo and Guyguy have just re-watched it and it turns out: This is in the pantheon of Guy’s favourite ever movies, and Tim know how to use Google. Peak behind an all-timer comedy movie, which came out during an insane run of big studio comedies (right in the middle of Jim Carrey’s golden era) that will likely never be repeated. The movie is essentially perfect so let’s glaze the heck out of it before we see the sequel and more importantly, as we brace for Grown Ups 3 impact.Please support our quest and enjoy our faces (on video episodes) at twioat.substack.com Hosted on Acast.

Diggin Dennis Dugan: Problem Child
The time is now to visit (in many ways) the origin point of the entire 15 year Worst Idea project. Dennis Dugan’s directorial debut is Problem Child - a 1990 movie which itself is fairly problematic. Beyond the liberal use of the R word and a B-plot involving a serial killer (played by Michael Richards - famously the only unproblematic figure in comedy) being the 8-year-old protagonist’s hero, this movie just plain seems to hate human beings. On the other hand, it is the genesis of the Vibes-based cinema system pioneered by Dugan and perfected by Sandler. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Family Friends 02
In this incredible Family Friends episode, Guy spends 10 full minutes explaining a fascinating situation involving the English national test cricket team absolutely ruining themselves. On our way to this, we get Tim waxing lyric on the benefits of having a big ass kindle thing you can write on and what’s wrong with Philip K Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep. And also Oppenheimer. But mainly this is about the cricket story. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Getting Rob'ed: The Benchwarmers
Imagine if Adam Sandler made a movie simply to try and get two friends back together. Imagine if Rob Schneider was one of those guys. And now imagine that the movie doesn’t totally suck. The movie you’ve just created in your head is Dennis Dugan’s 2006 Sports Comedy: The Benchwarmers. A heartwarming tale featuring Schneider, in a rare cinematic move for him, as a straight man against Napoleon Dynamite’s Jon Heder and the people’s champion David Spade. The boiz did not hate this one. In fact, it’s not only a serviceable comedy movie that gives millennials a hit of nostalgia, there are a number of genuine laugh lines. Crazy to think what Rob was capable of in his prime. Oh, how the mighty have fallen. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Family Friends 01
Let’s discuss the nature of time - a topic that permeates the near decade and a half history of this god forsaken podcast series. Tim and Guy are talking about YouTube, Guy’s hair and most importantly they’re back in the mailbag exploring how different municipalities experience time and briefly, how the luddites might be back (hooray)! Huge shout out to our mate's series Bryn and Kura’s Singles ClubFun timezone map is hereJoin us for video and bonus content on the Substack Hosted on Acast.

Getting Rob’ed
It’s time to take a rocket into the Sandler-system and visit one of Planet Rob’s moons. Specifically Daddy Daughter Trip. This is a 2022 ‘comedy’ written by Rob’s friend Jamie Lissow and Rob’s (now) ex-wife Patricia, directed by Rob and starring Rob and Rob’s daughter. Somewhat bafflingly, John Clesse is in this movie, as is Michael Bublé. This film is described (by Rob) as a love letter to Arizona, so we’ll leave it to film critic Bill Goodykoontz of The Arizona Republic to sum it up: 1.5 stars "Too often the jokes don't land. Neither does the physical comedy. The story doesn't really hold. It's clear that Schneider and his daughter love each other, and this film is a way to express that. But it's a lot to ask of the rest of us to watch it."This episode is in VIDEO and ad-free at twioat.substack.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
