HR1 Andy’s 5-Star Movie Reviews: Companion & Dog Man. CO GOP and the Central Committee. 1-31-25 by John Rush
SPEAKER 07 :
It’s finally Friday on Rush to Reason with your host, John Rush.
SPEAKER 10 :
So I tell him I’m a pro jack. And who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama himself. So we finish 18, and he’s going to sniff me. And I say, hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know? And he says, oh, it won’t be any money. But when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness. So I got that going. And movie reviews with Andy Payne.
SPEAKER 15 :
I think that you got the wrong impression about me. I think in all fairness, I should explain to you exactly what it is that I do.
SPEAKER 18 :
What I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you.
SPEAKER 05 :
What do you want to do tonight?
SPEAKER 10 :
The same thing we do every night, Pinky. Try to take over the world. Stick a fork in me, Jerry.
SPEAKER 07 :
I’m done. Now, here is your host of Rush to Reason, John Rush.
SPEAKER 03 :
All right, welcome. Friday edition Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560. You made it. I made it. We made it. Andy’s here as well. Charlie Grimes, of course. And for a lot of you listening, you may already be getting ready to head home or you’re getting close to. So congratulations. You made another week.
SPEAKER 06 :
Oh, thank goodness.
SPEAKER 03 :
This was a different week, too, by the way, with all the stuff that went on in D.C. and just different things happening and all of that and confirmations and, and, and.
SPEAKER 06 :
Bernie with the onesies.
SPEAKER 03 :
What an idiot.
SPEAKER 06 :
That was hilarious. If there was one funniest moment from all the hearings, it had to be Bernie with the onesie. What a bozo.
SPEAKER 03 :
How does that guy get reelected?
SPEAKER 06 :
Do you support this onesie? I’m just like, are you out of your mind?
SPEAKER 03 :
What a bozo. And still wouldn’t answer Kennedy when he said, Bernie, can you tell me how much you’ve taken from Big Pharma?
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah, it’s about 1.2 million, I believe.
SPEAKER 03 :
Like 1.7. Oh, he’s 1.7? Something like that, yeah.
SPEAKER 06 :
Okay, so what’s-her-name was 1.2.
SPEAKER 03 :
Big number. Okay. And Bernie would, oh, those are from individual donors. And RFK Jr. is like, yeah, no, it’s not. No, it’s not. Yeah, no, it’s not. No, Bernie, no, it’s not. And Bernie’s last statement was something to the effect of, well, at least it’s not $20 million or some dumb thing. He’s like, Bernie, you got caught. You’re red-handed, Bernie. Hang it up.
SPEAKER 06 :
All I know is I need to get a Bernie onesie. My life will not be complete until I get a Bernie onesie.
SPEAKER 03 :
Andy, every one of those people that were firing questions at some of the people this week, not just RFK Jr., but Tulsi and others. solidified my statements on Monday, and then you were here Tuesday as well. All they did was solidify my statements about how dumb politicians are.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 03 :
Literally. They are puppets and dumb as rocks at the same time.
SPEAKER 06 :
Oh, you got a lot of dumb ones, John.
SPEAKER 03 :
Literally.
SPEAKER 06 :
You know, the thing that really got me, though, and watching both Kennedy and Tulsi Gabbard, was the fury of… of the Democrats. And it just reminded me because they churned when they saw one of their own turn on them, right? One of their own go over to Trump, go over to the evil, the dark side.
SPEAKER 03 :
And Tulsi the same.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah. Yeah. RFK and Tulsi, when they saw that they treated those two much worse than they treated virtually any of the others.
SPEAKER 03 :
Can’t argue that.
SPEAKER 06 :
And it was really kind of funny to see.
SPEAKER 03 :
Same thing’s happening in Colorado with our own GOP.
SPEAKER 06 :
Well, Rhino Watch. Yeah, same deal. The second Lauren Boebert decided, okay, that’s it. I can’t take Dave Williams anymore. Dude is nuts. Let’s face facts. And they put out that letter and they tear him apart. And you know about all this.
SPEAKER 03 :
I saw it. I read it.
SPEAKER 06 :
Rhino Watch tore into her with the most horrifying, disgusting… We can’t read it on air.
SPEAKER 03 :
We can’t read it on air. I won’t read it on air. No, we can’t. These are vile, mentally disturbed… Yes. Chuck and Julie, yes, I’m naming you all. These are mentally disturbed wackos.
SPEAKER 06 :
They are. They’re mentally disturbed wackos. And it’s just crazy because, like tomorrow, as you know, I’m running for chair in Arapahoe County. Eh, who knows? But the… The thing that gets me is I know that so many who support these people are going to be lining the pews to vote against me. And it’s just like, you know, guys, can we just once put the party first?
SPEAKER 03 :
First of all, grow a brain. Think rationally, which is what this show is called, Rush to Reason. So think rationally about what’s going on. Put some of those other things aside that you have been so bent over and look at where are we headed, what’s next?
SPEAKER 06 :
John, they put out a comparison between the two slates. This is beautiful. They put out a comparison between the two slates and they had gone over hundreds of hours of tape of our show to listen to me to try to pull out of, and they pulled way out of context, pull out of context any quotes that I had that were like not pro-Trump or whatever. And, I mean, they totally lied about it, but what really blew my mind was, John, they had to have a team put together like hundreds of hours of time just to do this.
SPEAKER 03 :
There’s nothing better to do?
SPEAKER 06 :
Well, I think they did it with the state party. I don’t know that.
SPEAKER 03 :
I’m just saying. There’s nothing better to do, Andy.
SPEAKER 06 :
I just know that they’re joined at the hip.
SPEAKER 03 :
We don’t have other fights. We don’t have other things that we could be working on instead. No.
SPEAKER 06 :
No.
SPEAKER 03 :
Unreal.
SPEAKER 06 :
We should all be celebrating America first right now. Instead, we’re doing this. But forget me. What really blew my mind was Boebert. The way Rhino Watch torn to Boebert reminded me exactly of the Democrats tearing into RFK.
SPEAKER 03 :
You are spot on, Andy. These are, like I said, these are mentally disturbed people. individuals, they are so bent on hate and anger and making sure that they can control power that they can’t think straight.
SPEAKER 06 :
I know.
SPEAKER 03 :
These are power-hungry, mentally ill wackos. I have no other way to say it. They’re just – I don’t get it. I really don’t get it. I struggle, as you know, Andy, because we talk on Tuesdays as well. I struggle with people like that because it’s like, okay, wait a minute, time out. I get everybody can get upset and get emotional. I’ve been emotional as well. I can get emotional. I get that. I understand that. On the same token, you have to step back at times and say, okay, timeout. Let’s put all that aside. And where are we headed here? What are we trying to accomplish in Colorado? We’ve got several things going on right now down at the Golden Dome, including some very, very bad gun laws and things along those lines that are happening right now to where we ought to be all unified over that. We’ve got a huge election coming up in 2026 for a senator and a governor. And we’ve got to win some seats in Colorado to change what’s happening right now at the Golden Dome here in Colorado. What’s our plan of action to make that happen?
SPEAKER 06 :
Oh, they don’t have one. They say they do, but they don’t. They don’t have a plan at all, John.
SPEAKER 03 :
But there is one. I haven’t seen it.
SPEAKER 06 :
No. Their plan is to spend tens and tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees to try to put off votes on the chair rather than simply holding the vote and then giving all that money to candidates. But then again, once again, up on the Hill. I mean, the Democrats tore into everybody, of course, but what they did with RFK, did you hear the anger?
SPEAKER 03 :
Did you hear the rage? Michael Bennett, our own Colorado Senator Michael Bennett, who, by the way, is a total doofus. That guy couldn’t argue his way out of a wet paper bag. And he just attacked him with things that, frankly, aren’t true. Basically called him a conspiracy theorist. You’re nothing but a wacko, basically, is what Michael Bennett said. Michael? First of all, you tried to run for president and didn’t even make it as far as RFK Jr.
SPEAKER 01 :
True.
SPEAKER 03 :
You had a major failure in that particular area because you can’t talk. You can’t debate. Unfortunately, because we as a party here can’t get our act together, we couldn’t beat him. And he was probably one of the most easily beatable senators, in my opinion, in the country. Yes. And we couldn’t beat him.
SPEAKER 06 :
And by the way, it really blows my mind with him talking about other people being conspiracy theorists. I guarantee you he bought into the Russia hoax. Right. I guarantee you he bought into a lot of the hoaxes that have come out of the FBI that thankfully Kash Patel is going to, you know, let’s face it, rip off the bandaid for all of us. These people, they’ll buy into all these conspiracy theories and then accuse someone of RFK of it. It blew my mind.
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, they’re eating their own, which is what our own Colorado GOP here wants to do to a lot of us, myself, Andy included. And the reality is I’m not backing down. I’m not giving up. I have been calling for the removal of Dave Williams for almost two years now, and I am not stopping because I said at that time I was on a mission, and I haven’t stopped. I’m still on one.
SPEAKER 06 :
Oh, me too. Nothing changes for me tomorrow, win or lose. I’m still going to be right back here on Tuesday.
SPEAKER 03 :

SPEAKER 19 :
Suck it up, buttercup. Back to Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 06 :
And welcome back to Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560, Andy Pate, together with John Rush. And John, are you ready for a movie?
SPEAKER 03 :
Absolutely.
SPEAKER 06 :
All right, John. Well, John, I’ve always wanted to ask you this. Would you like to program your mate? Oh. I mean, what if you could take your wife, have her stand right there, and you could use one of these little keypads. That’d be weird. And change her any way you wanted. Would you want to do this, John?
SPEAKER 03 :
No.
SPEAKER 06 :
Better say no, just saying, because you’re on the radio.
SPEAKER 03 :
Because she’s listening, so no.
SPEAKER 06 :
Okay, well, let’s see if this is a good idea. Sundays, yes. Yeah. Mine actually does it with me, and I’m not sure how.
SPEAKER 03 :
I was going to say, in my case, it would be reverse. She would love to.
SPEAKER 06 :
You’ve come in totally changed many times.
SPEAKER 03 :
She would love to do that. Yes, Eddie.
SPEAKER 06 :
Okay. Well, let’s find out if this is a good idea in the AI horror film, Companion.
SPEAKER 08 :
There have been two moments in my life when I was happiest. The first was the day I met Josh.
SPEAKER 18 :
I’m Josh.
SPEAKER 08 :
I’m Iris. And the second, the day I killed him. Just relax. Remember to smile and act happy.
SPEAKER 18 :
Do they know? Iris, wake up.
SPEAKER 08 :
Uh, what are you doing? Shut her down already. What is she talking about, Josh? This was not part of the plan. I didn’t mean to.
SPEAKER 15 :
Did you jailbreak your sexpot?
SPEAKER 08 :
Wow, Josh. The days of you controlling me are over.
SPEAKER 19 :
Are you breaking up with me?
SPEAKER 08 :
It’s not you. It’s me.
SPEAKER 06 :
It’s not you, it’s me. So once again, John, I’m just advising you don’t try this with your wife. Weird. Weird. Okay. Well, John, Iris, she has it made. She just met a great guy named Josh in the supermarket. They hit it off and romance blooms. Now she’s off to join Josh for some party time at a mansion in the countryside and with some of his friends. Mansion in the countryside, cabin in the woods. That’s what it feels like, right? These things all happen way out in the woods. Of course. But this is a mansion. But then Iris, and she’s played by Sophie Thatcher, she learns the truth about herself. She’s not a real woman. Iris is a sex bot, an AI marvel purchased by Josh. Josh is played by young Jack Quaid. By the way, he’s in a lot of stuff. He’s very good. Now, she’s got memories, though. She remembers their meeting and all this. Well, those were selected from menus by Josh. She has tears. Nope. Those come from reservoirs inside her. Iris is programmed to love whoever imprints on her, and that happens to be Josh. I’m sorry, Jack.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 06 :
Jack. Josh. Yes, Josh. Played by Jack Quaid. There we go. Her IQ can even be raised or lowered instantly. I wonder if they could do this on The View. Just wondering. We do that to politicians. Go to The View. Turn on The View and just slide that bar to the right.
SPEAKER 03 :
Politicians. I’d like a slide for that.
SPEAKER 06 :
A few politicians slide that bar to the right.
SPEAKER 03 :
I’m not so sure an AI bot wouldn’t actually govern better.
SPEAKER 06 :
Would Bernie slide all the way up to triple digits?
SPEAKER 03 :
We’re being mean. It’s not in his program.
SPEAKER 06 :
Okay, it’s not in his program. Okay, well, worse yet. Jack’s ex is at the mansion. Her name is Kat, and Kat resents Iris. Well, I guess that makes sense.
SPEAKER 03 :
Is Kat real? Yeah, Kat’s real. Okay, so Kat’s real.
SPEAKER 06 :
And you’re seeing Jack with this perfect female, obviously, because she’s been designed.
SPEAKER 03 :
She’s been made, right.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah, yeah. And also, the mansion is owned by this rich guy named Sergei. And Kat is his mistress. So Sergei is this rich Russian guy who’s probably not on the level. And he’s married, but he is sleeping with Jack’s ex, who is Kat.
SPEAKER 03 :
Always a Russian dude, by the way. Yeah, it’s got to be a Russian.
SPEAKER 06 :
Why is that? They make the best ones.
SPEAKER 03 :
Got it.
SPEAKER 06 :
You know, I mean, a mobster has to be Italian or Russian, really. Otherwise, it’s no fun.
SPEAKER 03 :
Good point.
SPEAKER 06 :
Well, filling out the group are two gay boyfriends, Patrick and Eli.
SPEAKER 03 :
Oh, got to get them in there somewhere.
SPEAKER 06 :
Got to get them in there. There you go. Well, but things get scary when Iris shows up with blood all over her and a knife. Has the sex bot gone rogue? Hey, we’re in a horror thriller, so look out for the body count. It’s going to be fun, right? Okay, but who are the biggest threats in this new age of AI? Are they the machines we create or the geniuses creating them? And how about jerks like Jack who select from a menu, right? Who are the real bad guys here? Well, soon Iris is running for her freedom and secrets are revealed about these four house guests. Who is killing whom? What’s the motive? And surprises are abounding in Companion. What do you think?
SPEAKER 03 :
It doesn’t sound half bad.
SPEAKER 06 :
No, it doesn’t. Okay, well, what works in Companion? First of all, John, Sophie Thatcher is a gem. She’s terrific as Iris, and she should be up for an award. I know you don’t get awards for these kinds of movies. She should. You never saw Star Trek The Next Generation, did you? No, I don’t. Okay, there’s a character on there called Data. He’s wonderful, played by Brent Spiner. Well, anyway, Data shows more humanity than the humans around him. Iris is the same way. She actually shows more humanity than the humans around her. And it’s really kind of interesting to watch. Jack Quaid, he leads a spot-on group of flawed characters. They grasp the ickiness. They’re icky, okay? And Jack Quaid is just terrific in this role. Yeah. Of course, Dennis Quaid’s son, right? Most importantly, this film is pretty funny and has good pace. It’s only an hour and 37 minutes. Boom. I love that. The plot twists keep coming, which keeps the energy up, keeps it alive. And finally, it shows the selfishness of mankind and how we abuse power the moment we have it. I mean, you give some schlub, some guy, you know, total power over a female. What’s he going to act like? It’s going to be wonderful because modern millennials are just perfect and, you know, sinless. No! I’m a jerk. A lot of them are going to be a jerk, at least in this movie. Okay, what doesn’t work in Companion? It’s a pretty woke movie with gay men kissing at some points and some bad straight white guys. Okay? Okay. Could have been funnier. It really could have been. You’ve got a terrific cast here that could be very funny. They were only occasionally funny. And this might explain the January release. Because I was a little surprised. This movie looked better done than a January film. The dialogue drags at times. It does. These characters are well played and in a good story, but they aren’t all that interesting themselves, especially the side characters. I found the side characters to be rather boring for the most part. They just weren’t very interesting. Now, Rotten Tomatoes loved this movie. They gave it 95%. And I can understand why, because… For pretty much across the board, this is a movie that it’s hard to say no to. It’s hard to tell people, Rotten Tomato, don’t go to this movie. It’s a bad movie. I couldn’t do that. It’s a good movie. But the question is, how good? All right. Is this a five star movie? No, it isn’t. Quality, I’m going to give it three and a half stars. Because if they had had a better pace, right, there are moments where they’re partying, they’re doing these things, and you’re just kind of clicking your fingers going, okay, move it, move it, move it along. You’re boring me here. There were times when it was taking too long. But I’ll say this. It’s a strong three and a half. Okay. It’s a strong three and a half star movie. This is a good movie. Companion is worth seeing. Political, I’ll knock it down a little. I’ll knock it down to two. More religious, knock it down to two. obviously you know what do you expect right uh but do i recommend going to companion yes i do john this is actually one of the better slasher type films that i’ve seen in a long time this is well made how um it reminds me a lot of uh geez what was that one with that little girl megan Oh, which you really liked, right? Yeah, that was two years ago, and I think I gave that the same grade of three and a half stars. Both of them are fun, interesting, good side characters, some good characters, decently written, good pace horror movies.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 06 :
And this is about on the level of Megan.
SPEAKER 03 :
Is this a super slasher film, real bloody and all that, or is it pretty decent?
SPEAKER 06 :
Not real bloody. I mean, do you have bodies dropping all over the place? No, but you do have several. And, you know, I’ll just leave it at that. I’ll leave it mysterious.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay. All right.
SPEAKER 06 :
I do recommend Companion, folks. You’re going to enjoy it. This is well acted, well done, and Sophie Thatcher is a real find.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay. Veteran Windows and Doors is next. Again, last day. You can still call Dave and get in on this. 35% off Windows, 45% doors, free install. Call Dave. Find him at klzradio.com.

Dave will never try to manipulate you or use silly tricks upselling you. Big window companies will show you a heat lamp test that is supposed to impress you. But what does that really tell you about your windows? Other companies omit the pertinent information, and just because the window and door says Provia, it does not mean their products are engineered for Colorado or even anywhere in the U.S. Dave prefers to be the last window and door company you meet with, so he can give you all the information the others fail to reveal. Like the U-Factor, efficiency ratings, and even if it’s Energy Star certified. And of course, don’t forget the tax rebates many people didn’t know they could receive.

Back to Rush to Reason, presented by Hi-5 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, and Electric, where every call ends with a high five.
SPEAKER 06 :
And welcome back to Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560, John Rush, together with Andy Pate and John. Are you ready for another movie?
SPEAKER 03 :
This one’s cartoon, right? Yes, it is. Okay, because I did look up this one a little bit on the front side.
SPEAKER 06 :
John, another question you and I have often wanted answered. Can a cop and a cop dog be sewn together into one crime fighter?
SPEAKER 03 :
Why not?
SPEAKER 06 :
I mean, I’ve always wondered that, right?
SPEAKER 09 :
Sure, why not?
SPEAKER 06 :
Well, you bet they can in Dog Man.
SPEAKER 09 :
when the streets are held hostage.
SPEAKER 07 :
Break the dog! Hit the siren!
SPEAKER 09 :
Two of the city’s finest must come together and fight as one.
SPEAKER 07 :
What if we sew the dog’s head onto the man’s body? Enough about this Dog Man. It’s time to stop this super cop. He’s not going to ruin my evil plans to destroy all do-gooders. How evil can one cat be? Pretty evil. Dog Man, listen up. You’re the only one that can stop him.
SPEAKER 04 :
With all your kung fu skills and your K-942 and whatnot, no time to waste.
SPEAKER 06 :
What do you think, John? It looks good, actually. It does look pretty good. You remember Barf from Spaceballs? Oh, yeah. I’m my own best friend. Yeah. Yeah, Mog. So that’s kind of this. Okay, well, the setting is OK City. We’re Officer Knight and his canine sidekick, Greg, are fighting crime, especially against the evil Petey the Cat, who’s played by Pete Davidson, by the way. Okay. All cats are evil. You know that, don’t you? Oh, yeah. I have an attitude. Oh, yeah, they do. Well, but a bomb goes off, and so Greg and Knight are seriously damaged. Knight’s head can’t be saved, and Greg’s body can’t be saved. So the result is Dogman, a new crime fighter. His police chief, and that’s played by Lil Rel Howery. He’s a funny guy. He’s got a really good voice. He is frustrated. He’s jealous of Dog Man’s success, and he’s in love with the news reporter and frustrated that Dog Man can’t focus, no matter what he does. But most importantly, Petey the Cat is on a rampage. The police chief, he tells Dog Man to stop Petey no matter what, even if it takes a montage. Thought that was funny. Throughout the battles, we see some heavy issues, though. Dog Man must deal with feelings of loss over his new life. You know, because he used to be a dog and a man.
SPEAKER 09 :
Right.
SPEAKER 06 :
And there were connections there, and he no longer has them. Petey tries to clone himself, but in true mini-me form, makes a cute little kitty instead. Then Petey must deal with the lousy dad that he has who made him a villain. Well, along the way, Petey reanimates a dead fish with super psychokinetic powers. Okay, it’s getting crazy now, right? The fish is named Flippy. He’s played by Ricky Gervais, and he can make whole buildings run rampant through the city. Can Dogman stop Petey? Can anyone stop Flippy? Will little Petey choose good or evil? And what will become of the good citizens of OK City? What do you think? Sounds good. Actually, it’s cute. It sounds like good, stupid fun, right? Yeah. All right. Well, what works in Dog Man? First of all, there’s a good, quick pace for the first two-thirds of the movie. Lots of humor, mostly non-adult humor. But it’s good for the kids. Kids are having fun. And I was chuckling, too. I was enjoying it. And there was a lot of action. I like that, too. Now, you have some terrific vocal performances. And this really carried the movie for me. Pete Davidson is excellent as Petey the Cat. And you heard him there. Pretty evil! I mean, he’s just great. Well, Lil Rel and Ricky Gervais, they have a blast with their roles. They were wonderful. I like that you have a good villain. Petey the Cat’s a good villain. He’s mean, he’s funny, but he’s vulnerable. And I just enjoyed that. You always have to have a good villain for your hero. DreamWorks, they did a good job with the overall look. It’s almost claymation if you take a look at it. But it isn’t, right? It isn’t claymation. And it reminded me a lot of the Peanuts movie. The look and feel of it, but more corny. There is little to no woke preaching. You know, I love that, right? At least I don’t remember any, none that I could notice. And kids gave it a thumbs up. That’s the biggest thing, because I asked a number of kids as they were coming out, what’d you think of the movie? And they all liked it, so there you go. Well, what doesn’t work in Dog Man? Ugh, here’s the problem. This puppy wears out its welcome, John. It really does, big time. Far too sappy toward the end. Easily 15 minutes too long, even though the film was only 90 minutes. You’ve got too many characters reconciling with their lives and changing. I don’t know. I almost thought everybody in the world was going to become good. I thought Joe Biden would become a non-criminal, that it would just happen with almost everybody. Not everybody, but it was sappy. It really was. The action toward the end is ludicrous and scattered over the top, and that just makes it less fun. I like it more focused. Do you remember The Incredibles, the action in there? Totally focused, right? Tons of action, but always focused. Not here. Much of the dialogue is spoken too fast for kids. Now, this was interesting. So you have a lot of the funny little moments, but the characters are speaking just fast. Flying by. And there’s no way the kids are going to be keeping up with that. They can’t. So that leaves the kids just enjoying a few of the simple jokes and a lot of the fun and action on the scene, on screen. Creating a second villain so the first can soften and connect was not a great idea. And don’t get me wrong, Ricky Gervais did a great job as Flippy. But Flippy was just too crazy, too wild, and honestly was really hurting the story toward the end. Petey the Cat was a much better villain. I think they should have just focused on that. Okay. Rotten Tomatoes liked this movie. 77%. I like this movie, but I can’t go quite that high because the last third really dragged and got way too sappy. I’m going to give it three stars. Is it worth watching? Yes. In fact, I’m going to give it all threes. Political three, moral religious three. It didn’t preach at me. I didn’t mind anything it said.
SPEAKER 09 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 06 :
But did this movie wow me, John? I’ll be honest. For a while there through the middle, it was wowing me. Hmm. I was just like, this is really good. I’m loving these characters. I’m loving where this is going. This is great for kids. And adults aren’t going to be, you know, in torment watching this thing. Right. But it fell apart. It fell apart. And I think the last third was, for me, it was pure agony. So I know it must have been for the parents. So I’ll give it three stars. Do I recommend going to Dogman? Sure. Yeah, Dog Man’s a good cartoon. It’s definitely worthwhile, and I think your kids are going to have a lot of fun.
SPEAKER 03 :
Not super long.
SPEAKER 06 :
No, 90 minutes.
SPEAKER 03 :
Which is, at least the agony wasn’t.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yes, yeah.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay, so really quick, what could they have changed to not make it so agonizing?
SPEAKER 06 :
Okay, they should have, I think it’s some pretty easy fixes. As much as I like Flippy, they should have made Flippy a sidekick for Petey.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 06 :
Okay, because you don’t want to take Gervais out of the movie. He’s too talented. He’s too good. But they could have made Flippy’s role smaller and made him a sidekick for Petey, and it would have been incredibly funny. They could have interacted, but they don’t. They make them just two totally separate villains. Petey the cat. A lot of his story I would have made less sappy toward the end. You know, cut down on the schmaltz a little bit. You could do it with the little kitten. That was funny. The schmaltz is funny with the little kitten because kittens are ridiculously cute, and they do that here. You know, everything just got too sappy down the stretch. Cut it. Make it more fun. Keep it lighter. Keep it more fluid. And make this thing in about 80 minutes. And most importantly at the end, have the action be much more focused like Incredibles and not just all over the place to where all you’re basically seeing is buildings hammering into things and so forth. It’s just not focused.
SPEAKER 03 :
How, you know, given the type of movie, how they do it and so on, is this a expensive movie to make or not?
SPEAKER 06 :
Medium.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah, I mean, obviously the CGI, I mean, the cartoonistry, we’ll call it that. Obviously the cartoonistry was pricey. Just to… You know, get that look. Because on the one hand, you’d look at this and say, well, this is incredibly simple-looking stuff. Yeah, but you see the shading of all the characters. They’re bringing so much reality to them. It’s actually a lot more difficult than you think. So I think a lot of the cartoon industry is very pricey. And, of course, you’ve got a number of pretty big names who are putting in some great performances.
SPEAKER 03 :
That was my next question.
SPEAKER 06 :
They’re not cheap.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah. Yeah, they come with a price.
SPEAKER 06 :
Right. So do I think it had a huge price tag? You know, no. No. But do I think it had a pretty good price tag? Yes. Do I think it’ll make money? Yeah, I do.
SPEAKER 03 :

SPEAKER 14 :
Now back to Rush to Reason on KLZ 560.
SPEAKER 03 :
All right. Yesterday’s impossible question. What is the only country in the world that is transcontinental, is a transcontinental nation spanning Europe and Asia and not considered part of the Middle East? That, of course, would be the old USSR, or we call it Russia. Remember when we were kids growing up?
SPEAKER 06 :
Oh, Russia’s not part of Asia?
SPEAKER 03 :
No.
SPEAKER 06 :
Oh, I didn’t know that. I always kind of thought. Okay. I thought Asia was bigger.
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, not according to the National Geographic.
SPEAKER 06 :
Oh, okay.
SPEAKER 03 :
Whoever they are. I’m sure they’re right. So, okay. Today’s impossible question, what programming language? Do they have a Gulf of Russia? No.
SPEAKER 06 :
Okay, just checking.
SPEAKER 03 :
Go ahead. Well, so theirs is like covered with ice, right?
SPEAKER 06 :
Because we have a Gulf of America.
SPEAKER 03 :
I mean, I guess theirs isn’t always covered in ice. It varies, right? Every time I think of Russia, I think of it being super cold. Yes. It’s like a frozen tundra icebox is what I think. Now, I’m sure that’s not the case.
SPEAKER 06 :
I always think of hunting for Red October.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay. Thank you. All right. What programming language is today’s was created by Guido van Rosum in 1991 and named after a British comedy group? This one I think I would have actually got. I probably would have gotten this one right. I don’t get too many questions of the day right, but I think I would have actually gotten this one correct. So answer that on the Facebook page. I should say on our Facebook page and update. And I know we spent a little bit of time on the Colorado GOP as we opened up. Sure. And we’ll talk more about some of these things on. Tuesday again, because they do affect us here in Colorado greatly on what we do moving down the path to 2026 when it comes to governor and especially the Senate seat and again, local races and so on. But there was a meeting that was held, virtual meeting that was held last night with the intent of handling a few business things. But the main business agenda last night for the Colorado GOP and Dave and his cronies was to change the bylaws to eliminate certain votes. A lot of votes. A lot of votes. Thank you, Andy. And basically making the pond smaller, moving into the assembly that will take place later in February.
SPEAKER 06 :
Right, the reorganization meeting, which is going to be coming up at the beginning of next month. And what that would… I’m sorry. March.
SPEAKER 03 :
Right.
SPEAKER 06 :
End of February.
SPEAKER 03 :
I think it’s beginning. I’ll have to look.
SPEAKER 06 :
It’s right there. It’s right around March 1st. Well, yeah, the idea, of course, was basically to remove around three dozen, 40 maybe votes, mostly against Dave, almost all against Dave, from the Central Committee to make sure that Dave could retain power.
SPEAKER 03 :
Right. And that meeting last night didn’t go well. I didn’t watch all of it because I’m not privy. I’m not on the SEC or anything like that. There are some clips that have been put out on social media and other places whereby there were – I guess evidently people coming and going from the meeting, black screens, you know, it was a virtual meeting, so held over like Zoom. And so they couldn’t really see who was who. So I don’t know exactly how this all happened. But at a point in time, somebody suggested and I think most people got on board with the fact that, hey, we need a better way of verifying who’s here, who’s voting and so on. We want voter ID, basically.
SPEAKER 06 :
Because it’s difficult to do on Zoom.
SPEAKER 03 :
Correct. So we want some sort of voter ID. Well, that basically blew the meeting up. And Dave and his cronies didn’t really know how to handle that. And there was some back and forth arguing, some of that even coming from Lauren Boebert, who was actually in on the meeting.
SPEAKER 06 :
Did she and Dave argue at all?
SPEAKER 03 :
Yes, they did, back and forth.
SPEAKER 06 :
Over that or something?
SPEAKER 03 :
Oh, okay. Over that.
SPEAKER 06 :
Over credentialing.
SPEAKER 03 :
Correct.
SPEAKER 06 :
Because did Dave want to try to credential it?
SPEAKER 03 :
Without that.
SPEAKER 06 :
Without that. Correct. But they couldn’t do it. I think it’s going to be hard for Dave to put together another meeting in time. Before the reorg, I mean, he could pull it off. It’d be difficult, though, very difficult.
SPEAKER 03 :
We shall see. But ultimately, that meeting last night to basically change the bylaws, not basically, but to change the bylaws to have less votes when it’s all said and done to effectively, in my opinion, keep Dave and or one of his cronies in power. That did not pan out last night, didn’t happen. Now, there were a lot of people from his side of the aisle complaining that people like Lauren Boebert overstepped her bounds, that she’s not more important than Dave Williams, and they didn’t follow proper rules of – Robert’s rules of order and blah, blah, blah. And Dave has the ultimate say in what happens in the meeting. And what I will say is this. The little bit that I saw in the meeting – By the way, just reconfirms everything I’ve been saying for almost the past two years. Dave is not a leader, period. You could tell by the way the meeting was being run. Dave is not a leader. The guy is like a wet noodle. He shouldn’t be there. He’s in way over his head, period. And those of you that are supporting him, you are absolute knuckleheads. Yes. There is no reason why you are. You can’t give me one good reason why you are. Most of you that have tried don’t have one. The only thing I can say is you are just walling around in your own little victories that you now have your own little power grab that’s gone on, and you’re super happy. Laurel Eimer, by the way, and those of you like her, you guys just think that you now have control over the entire world, but you’re a bunch of nutjobs.
SPEAKER 06 :
Dave was brought in for one reason. to purge Republicans that his followers don’t like. That is why he was brought in. He was brought in to punish petition candidates, to purge anyone that they feel is not of their ilk enough. And, you know, to me, it’s like, look, I don’t even dislike their ilk. I agree with these people on virtually all the issues.
SPEAKER 03 :
But the tactics I don’t agree with.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah, it’s the tactics I don’t agree with.
SPEAKER 03 :
It’s their strategy, which they have none.
SPEAKER 06 :
Right. I mean, for instance, you know, they they are against grooming kids and they are, you know, pro-life. So am I. So am I. Yeah. You know, they they love Donald Trump. So do we. Yeah. They you know, they like a lot of the very same.
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, but here’s the difference between us and them when it comes to Donald Trump, which, by the way, I think even Donald Trump would say they would say that he’s the only guy because I’ve heard him say it. He’s the only guy that can fix America. Donald Trump, I think, would even say that, you know, no, I’ve got a lot of great people that are around me and I’m going to leave things in great shape when I’m done. And there’ll be some other great people that can come in behind me. And no, I’m not the only guy that can fix this.
SPEAKER 06 :
Right. Even Trump doesn’t worship Trump as much as they do. Correct. It’s like, look, guys. Trump loves J.D. Vance. Trump loves Ron DeSantis. Trump loves Marco Rubio nowadays. Trump loves a lot of people. OK, but they if you’re not their purest type, they’re going to turn on you. What really gets me is this. I think a lot of these people sometimes who get into this mindset have no loyalty to the party. They only have loyalty to their movement, to their emotions, Andy. Well, what I mean is this. They will churn and attack Republicans instantly at the drop of a pen.
SPEAKER 03 :
I said this last week.
SPEAKER 06 :
I mean, my gosh, Rhino Watch has a whole page just to attack Republicans.
SPEAKER 03 :
I said this this past week. These are the same individuals for the most part. I know there’s a few that have kind of come on board or come on board since. But these are the same people that literally a decade ago. tried to run a coup against Steve House when he was the GOP chair. And I’m not exaggerating when I say that. Those of you that are listening, you know who you are. You know what involvement you had back then. You are some of the same individuals now that are on Dave’s side. By the way, mad that what you called was a coup that wasn’t, by the way. It was all legitimate in what was going on. And no, I don’t believe in your Democrat judge basically being on your side because that’s what a Democrat judge would do. So in the end, Dave… Do I feel like all of you that were forming that coup back 10 years ago deserve what you’re getting today? Absolutely. Absolutely, I do.
SPEAKER 06 :
A lot of these are the same people also who were part of the Cruz Brigade that wouldn’t support Trump.
SPEAKER 03 :
That’s true, too. That’s what’s so funny. Good point.
SPEAKER 06 :
I know because I was online with a lot of these people trying to tell them Trump is not nearly as bad as you think. They were arguing against me. Trump is a liberal. Trump can’t be trusted. Trump is terrible.
SPEAKER 03 :
He’s a charlatan. He’s this. He’s a Trojan horse. Same thing they said about Elon Musk, by the way.
SPEAKER 06 :
And now these very same people are telling me I hate Trump. I’m an anti-Trumper. I had somebody try to call me that last night on our Zoom call in the text. And I’m just like, you guys are all over the map. I haven’t changed at all. I’m exactly where I’ve always been.
SPEAKER 03 :
We have explained ourself on all of these issues very well over the past eight plus years. Yes. Very well. And you are correct. In fact, I actually called on this program. I was here with Kim Munson and some others. You weren’t here. I actually called prior to Donald Trump winning the primary in 2016. I said, he’s going to be your next president. That was long before all of these other guys that are out there calling you and I rhinos, before any of those were even on board with Donald Trump. I was saying he’s going to be your next president. Well, you called it. So those of you that are out there that think that we are not for him, again, you’re loons. You’re crazy. You have no idea what you’re talking about.
SPEAKER 06 :
We got a few seconds left. I’ll just put it to you. Is Donald Trump a great president?
SPEAKER 03 :
Absolutely. One of the best ever.
SPEAKER 06 :
Are you loving everything that’s coming out of his pen?
SPEAKER 03 :
Absolutely. Me too. Now, even now, do I wish he would do some things differently at times? Yes. Let me give you an example. Sure. While I also feel like DEI and a lot of the things that are going on in that world had a lot of an effect and maybe partially to blame for what happened with the airplane helicopter crash in D.C. Yes. But given the situation with families and everybody else, would I have mentioned that this week in a speech to the press? No, I would not have.
SPEAKER 06 :
You know the problem? Remember the movie Companion I just reviewed? A lot of these people from this group want you to be like the companion, the bot, who they can program. You could never disagree with anything or any method that Trump ever uses, ever.
SPEAKER 03 :
And that is an area where I disagree with him on. Right. I wouldn’t have done that.
SPEAKER 06 :
I disagree with him on entitlements. I think we need to raise the retirement age.
SPEAKER 03 :
I think we need to do a lot of things. Yes, that’s a whole other conversation. We most definitely do or they’re not going to survive.

SPEAKER 05 :
Live and local, back to Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 03 :
All right, and that’s about it for this first hour. We have another full hour coming your way, of course, and we’re going to get into movies, movie rentals, and because of the… I wouldn’t call this a bye week. It’s just the week between now and the Super Bowl where they give everybody a chance to, I guess… Heal up, practice up, whatever you want to say to get ready for the big game.
SPEAKER 06 :
Well, and also milk all the media. Yeah, that’s right.
SPEAKER 03 :
Exactly. And get all the other things out of this that they possibly can. So there will be no NFL picks today. We’ll talk about the Super Bowl, of course, next week. So today it will be movies with dogs. And there’s quite a few, actually.
SPEAKER 06 :
Right, because a dog man. Man’s best friend, movies with man’s best friend.
SPEAKER 03 :
And here’s the rules. It doesn’t have to be a movie about dogs. It can just be a movie with a dog in it.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER 03 :
Correct?
SPEAKER 06 :
Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay, so there’s the rule.
SPEAKER 06 :
A lot of the best movies with dogs are just movies that have a dog for a little while.
SPEAKER 03 :
Right. It doesn’t have to be the entire movie about a dog, is my point. No, it does not. Welcome right back. Don’t go anywhere. Hour 2 is next. Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560.
