SPEAKER 28 :
It’s finally Friday on Rush to Reason with your host, John Rush. So I tell him I’m a pro jack. And who do you think they give me? The Dolly Lama. 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 coming. And movie reviews with Andy Payne.
SPEAKER 29 :
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 17 :
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 34 :
What do you want to do tonight?
SPEAKER 20 :
The same thing we do every night, Pinky. Try to take over the world.
SPEAKER 28 :
Stick a fork in me, Jerry. I’m done.
SPEAKER 27 :
Now, here is your host of Rush to Reason, John Rush.
SPEAKER 21 :
And happy Friday, everybody. Myself, Andy Pate, Charlie Grimes. How are you? Me? I’m doing well. Doing well?
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, it’s a beautiful day out there. How about you?
SPEAKER 21 :
I can get rid of the wind.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 21 :
I don’t like the wind.
SPEAKER 23 :
It’s about done, isn’t it?
SPEAKER 21 :
Well, I would hope so. It’s about moved through? I hope so.
SPEAKER 23 :
I really don’t like… What do you hate more, wind or cold?
SPEAKER 21 :
Wind.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, me too.
SPEAKER 21 :
Period. Because the cold… The cold’s the cold, and you can pretty much handle that. When the wind starts blowing, and it’s even… Like today, it’s 69 degrees, but the wind blowing makes it feel like it’s in the low 60s. It’s like, get rid of this stuff. We don’t have, like, an island breeze here.
SPEAKER 23 :
Okay, three things. Heat over 90… Cold, under 20. Okay. Or wind over 30 miles an hour.
SPEAKER 21 :
Heat over 90.
SPEAKER 23 :
That’s when you hate the most?
SPEAKER 21 :
No, I take it easiest. You’ll take it? I take it all day long.
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, you like being on an island.
SPEAKER 21 :
The wind I hate the most. Okay. I can take the heat or the cold more than the wind.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, high winds I really hate. You know one thing I hate about them is people who aren’t careful at the store and their door will nail you.
SPEAKER 21 :
Or the car flies or whatever the case. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, I’m with you on that one. Absolutely, because you know how I keep my cars. Yes, I know how you keep your cars. All right, today we’re switching things up a little bit. Normally we would be rolling right into reviews for movies that Andy does. We do movie reviews, as you all know. We’re going to change it up a little bit today. Richard had some things going on a little earlier this afternoon than normal, so we’re changing things up. So Andy and I will do movie reviews in the second hour. So we’re going to do the movie rental hour, which Andy is.
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, sorry, I wasn’t ready. Art of the deal. Art of the deal. Yeah, trades and deals in movies. Art of the deal. Why are we doing this? Obviously, because of our president, who is making deals everywhere we turn.
SPEAKER 21 :
So any limitations to this as folks get, we’ll do a break, we’ll come back, get rolling, but is there any limitations to this at all?
SPEAKER 23 :
No, not at all. It can be any kind of a trade or any kind of a deal that somebody makes in a movie. The big thing I’ve really noticed is when looking at our president, and can I say this for just a second?
SPEAKER 21 :
Sure.
SPEAKER 23 :
A little political, then we’ll go to break.
SPEAKER 21 :
Go ahead. No, you’re fine. Take your time.
SPEAKER 23 :
For decades, and I know I’ve said this before, but for decades, America had all this leverage with the American consumer that the entire world wanted access to, and no president used it. Now we finally have a president using the very leverage that we’ve neglected for decades. In a lot of these movie clips, you will hear people using leverage.
SPEAKER 21 :
Okay. All right. We’ll get into that. Let’s do this before we go to break. John and Cheyenne, go ahead, sir.
SPEAKER 25 :
Really? You Colorado sissies are whining about the wind?
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, I know. Yeah, we are sissies when it comes to wind. Yes, you are correct.
SPEAKER 23 :
I’ll tell you what. Some of the most intense wind I have ever seen is up there in Wyoming. I mean, like trucks just being blown right off the rover. Yeah. It was incredible.
SPEAKER 25 :
Well, that’s why they closed the interstate to high-profile vehicles under, I think this morning it was under 40,000 pounds.
SPEAKER 23 :
Is it true that they outlawed tall people? No, no. Oh, okay. Because John’s tall. I know you’re tall, so maybe they… I didn’t know if they made you stay at home. That’s hilarious. Just a thought.
SPEAKER 25 :
No. I just was laughing when you guys were talking about that. But if you think about it, the wind, we need it because we need to send all the crap to… The East Coast. How are you going to do that without the wind?
SPEAKER 23 :
I know, yeah, but it brings the West Coast here, man. You’ve got to think it all through. True.
SPEAKER 25 :
Yeah. So I didn’t know you guys were going to break before movies.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, fine. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 25 :
Take your time. How about Last of the Mohicans, the deal at the end to the daughters?
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, okay. I did not think of that one. That’s a good one, yeah.
SPEAKER 21 :
Put it down here.
SPEAKER 23 :
It totally works. I just didn’t think of it.
SPEAKER 25 :
Yeah. All right. You guys have a good rest of the weekend.
SPEAKER 21 :
You do the same. I’ll add that onto the list, John. Thank you very much, as always. I appreciate it. We’ll take a break. We’ll come back. We’ll get rolling. Dr. Scott Faulkner up first today.

SPEAKER 21 :
All right, we are back. Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560. All right, art of the deal, movies about trades and deals and so on. Andy and Richard, are you with us now? That I am. Okay. Andy, fire us off.
SPEAKER 23 :
Okay, this first one’s a little long, but I like it. And one of my favorite deals always is sales. Because that’s really what you’re doing when you make a sale is you’re making a deal. Correct. And here we go, Tommy Boy. Chicken wings. Chicken wings.
SPEAKER 20 :
Let’s think about this for a sec, Ted. Why would somebody put a guarantee on a box? Hmm, very interesting. Go on, I’m listening. Here’s the way I see it, Ted. Guy puts a fancy guarantee on a box because he wants you to feel all warm and toasty inside. Yeah, makes a man feel good. Of course it does. Why shouldn’t it? You figure you put that little box under your pillow at night, the guarantee fairy might come by and leave a quarter. Am I right, Ted?
SPEAKER 19 :
What’s your point?
SPEAKER 20 :
The point is, how do you know the fairy isn’t a crazy glue sniffer? Build a model airplane, says the little fairy. Well, we’re not buying it. He sneaks into your house once, that’s all it takes. Next thing you know, there’s money missing out the dresser and your daughter’s knocked up. I’ve seen it a hundred times. But why do they put a guarantee on the box then? Because they know all they sold you was a guaranteed piece of… that’s all it is isn’t it hey if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed i will i got spare time but for now for your customer’s sake for your daughter’s sake you might want to think about buying a quality product from me okay i’ll buy from you oh that’s what that’s funny it worked that was on my list by the way so good one yeah i really love that one what do you think richard
SPEAKER 27 :
Oh, yes. Always a good excuse, Andy, to put a Tommy Boy reference in there. And the whole movie was about making deals.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, it totally was. And I think, Richard, whenever I imagine you doing sales, that’s exactly how I imagine you doing it.
SPEAKER 27 :
You know, as long as it makes a sale, Andy, I guess it doesn’t matter what’s in between, right? Exactly.
SPEAKER 23 :
As long as it works. You’re up, sir.
SPEAKER 27 :
All right, I’m going to go with one that my wife thought of, which there’s deal-making trades involved. And that’s one of my, I guess, it’s kind of an underrated movie. I feel like it flies under the radar, which is Molly’s Game about Molly Bloom.
SPEAKER 21 :
Absolutely. Yeah, that’s a good one. Yeah, it’s definitely deals.
SPEAKER 23 :
I gave that a pretty good review. Yeah, that’s a good movie.
SPEAKER 21 :
I enjoyed that movie. I’ve watched that one more than once. It’s a good movie.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, I know I like it. That’s a good one. I didn’t, that was not on my list. It’s a good one, Richard.
SPEAKER 27 :
It’s a great job. Andy, do you know that from the Bloom family who are Colorado people, right?
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, I do. Jeremy’s sister.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, by the way, if I may, this is such a weird topic. First of all, it’s a bit of a brain teaser.
SPEAKER 21 :
It is.
SPEAKER 23 :
Right? You know, it’s a little tougher than most of ours. You’ve got to do a little more searching and thinking about it. But because of that, I suspect we’re going to get a lot of different answers today.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, yeah, I would agree. All right, John, you’re up. Oh, gosh, there’s so many. And mainly probably because I’m a car guy. Let’s just start off with used cars.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 21 :
Because they’re making deals all the time in that movie.
SPEAKER 23 :
They are. They are.
SPEAKER 21 :
And that’s what it’s all about.
SPEAKER 23 :
That’s on my list. Well, it isn’t now.
SPEAKER 21 :
It’s not now. You took it off my list. Sorry about that.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, it’s okay. All right, let’s go see what Bob’s got. Bob, go ahead. Bob, are you going to take one off my list?
SPEAKER 10 :
Oh, I don’t know, but I think the movie that, I got two of them, but the first one that was all shady deals was The Sting.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, good one. Absolutely.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah, that’s a good one. Robert Redford, they pulled off some deals, and at the end of the movie, the biggest, biggest deal.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, good point. And yes, by the way, you took one off my list.
SPEAKER 21 :
That’s a good one. That wasn’t on my list, so that’s a good one.
SPEAKER 10 :
Oh, that’s a good one. Probably got one of the other ones off your list, and this one starred Danny DeVito, and it was called Tin Men, and they were siding salesmen.
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, I didn’t have that on my list.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, that’s on my list, so you took one off mine now. Yes, that was on my list. Good one. Good one. No, good job, Bob. Appreciate it very much. All right, Andy, you’re next. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 23 :
Okay. All right, I got to do this for Richard. Richard, since you want movies that I always do, Richard, what would we do for the girl? And here we are.
SPEAKER 34 :
There’s no chance we can ever be together?
SPEAKER 31 :
Only if you could promise me you’ll never die.
SPEAKER 34 :
You know I can’t promise that.
SPEAKER 31 :
If you did that, I would make love to you right now.
SPEAKER 03 :
I promise I will never die.
SPEAKER 21 :
And the name of the movie, of course, is Team America. I would not have pictured that one as being a deal-making movie. But I guess they make a deal. They try to make a deal with terrorists and so on. So I guess in a way there’s plenty of deal-making going on. Yeah, there’s deal-making.
SPEAKER 23 :
Let’s face it, there’s deal-making in most movies. There’s deal-making in the movie. But I just thought that that was the best deal. And by the way, the most realistic.
SPEAKER 21 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 23 :
What do you think, Richard?
SPEAKER 27 :
I mean, Andy, it wouldn’t be a movie segment if we didn’t do Team America. It would not.
SPEAKER 23 :
It just wouldn’t be right.
SPEAKER 21 :
Actually, it’s been a few weeks.
SPEAKER 23 :
I know, and I felt lost. Everywhere I drive around, I don’t know where I’m going. It’s been a while. Yeah, yeah. Richard, you’re up.
SPEAKER 27 :
Andy’s always searching for an excuse to play Team America. I am. Rightly or wrongly. Exactly. We’ll do it when we have romances. Well, Andy, you usually find something. I mean, about the only thing is maybe if it’s a movie about Jesus, but in Korea, maybe they think that Kim Jong-un is Jesus. I don’t know. You’ll probably find a way. I could stretch it.
SPEAKER 23 :
I could do it, man. You probably could. Look, I’m a talented guy. I could do this.
SPEAKER 27 :
You are up, sir. Talented or devious, something like that, Andy. All right. I’m going to go with one that I actually watched on vacation last week, and you don’t think of it as deal-making, but there’s a deal to be made. And you’re kind of in a different kind of way, which is John Q with old Denzel.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, yeah, that’s a good one.
SPEAKER 23 :
And by the way, he’s making deals. Since I always need an excuse for Team America, Richard always needs an excuse to do a Denzel movie. Which, by the way, I totally respect. He’s one of the best, Andy. Oh, he is. I’m just saying, he’s one of the best. I love… Denzel is one of the five or six actors who I watch him and I just say, can I be him? So, yeah, I’m totally cool with that.
SPEAKER 27 :
You know, Andy, it’s… My wife, I don’t think she had ever seen that movie. It was kind of on… as we were just sitting there, and she’s like, oh, this is pretty good, and she didn’t understand what was happening, and then the fact that he never had any bullets in the gun. I mean, it’s a really well-done movie. I know insurance is bad, but we can all agree that to some extent, right? Yep.
SPEAKER 23 :
Good job.
SPEAKER 21 :
Go ahead, John. Only mentioning this one, and this is in all seriousness because it’s a very serious movie, but it literally is about making deals all the way through the entire movie on a very serious note because it involves people’s lives, Schindler’s List.
SPEAKER 23 :
This is true.
SPEAKER 21 :
He gets to the very end. He’s standing there, and he’s grabbing things off of himself, saying, here’s another life. Here’s another life. In other words, I could have dealt for another life. I could have dealt for another life. That’s probably the most touching part of the entire movie, is he’s literally thinking to himself, I had all of this other stuff still even on me. That would have been another life. There’s another life, and so on.
SPEAKER 23 :
No one else thinks about Schindler’s List as much as you do.
SPEAKER 21 :
It’s a very touching movie.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yes, it is.
SPEAKER 21 :
Let’s just say that.
SPEAKER 23 :
And, by the way, that’s actually a great example. Okay, I’ve got to go to one that’s pretty easy, and that’s Trading Places. Here we go at the end.
SPEAKER 12 :
Happy New Year!
SPEAKER 28 :
Winter. Valentine.
SPEAKER 18 :
Hey, how’d you make out today?
SPEAKER 28 :
How could you do this to us after everything we’ve done for you? Oh, see, I made Lewis a bet here. Lewis bet me that we couldn’t both get rich and put y’all in the poorhouse at the same time. He didn’t think we could do it. I won. I lost.
SPEAKER 21 :
Eddie Murphy.
SPEAKER 20 :
One dollar. Thank you, Lewis. After you. Certainly.
SPEAKER 21 :
Unbelievable. His laugh. Eddie Murphy’s laugh.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, and Aykroyd was great in that, too.
SPEAKER 21 :
He was. No, you’re right.
SPEAKER 23 :
I mean, I never really thought of those two being in a movie together, and they were terrific.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, they were hilarious together.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, they were.
SPEAKER 21 :
Absolutely.
SPEAKER 23 :
It was really good. So Trading Places, obviously, was all about trades and stocks and bonds, and there you go. Richard, you were up.
SPEAKER 27 :
All right, speaking of trades and bonds, on the less funny note, although one of the most informative movies that wasn’t a documentary, but it kind of was, but really actually was well done and explained it, was The Big Short.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yep. I watched it the other day, actually. Totally. That’s one of those movies that is… worth watching at different times just to have a reminder of what happened during that time and let’s not do that again.
SPEAKER 27 :
Honestly, it should be one of those movies that should actually be required viewing for people. You should have to watch that as high schoolers.
SPEAKER 21 :
You should.
SPEAKER 27 :
It’s one of those things that actually probably does a better job of explaining what happened than a textbook does, because it really actually walks through it.
SPEAKER 21 :
Can’t argue that. No, you are right, Richard, absolutely. Okay, John. Okay, I have one that you won’t think of as being a deal-making movie, but it is, and I doubt if Andy has a clip, but maybe you do. Billy Madison.
SPEAKER 23 :
I don’t.
SPEAKER 21 :
Because he’s literally the entire movie. It’s a deal, correct? Right.
SPEAKER 23 :
It is. It’s a good example.
SPEAKER 21 :
And it’s hilarious to boot.
SPEAKER 23 :
It is pretty funny. It’s not Happy Gilmore.
SPEAKER 21 :
No, not quite. It was building up to that.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, but it’s pretty funny.
SPEAKER 21 :
It is funny, though.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, I enjoyed it. Good job.
SPEAKER 21 :
Back to school. Back to school. Okay, hang on. Let’s take, before we go any further, let’s take Soren. Soren, go ahead.
SPEAKER 26 :
Okay, I don’t know. This is just one of my bonus rounds here. But does Fiddler on the Roof count?
SPEAKER 21 :
I don’t know. They’re making deals in it. Isn’t that a musical, Soren? It is. Soren, hang on. Soren, we need a lesson here. Real men don’t watch musicals.
SPEAKER 26 :
Wrong. Yeah, well, I know that, but the problem is that I have sisters, and sometimes you get forced into it.
SPEAKER 23 :
Soren, when you’re alone, do you spend a lot of time dancing to show tunes? No. Okay, just checking. Now, I love Fiddler on the Roof. Are you kidding? It’s one of the greatest classics of all time. I’ve never seen it. Oh.
SPEAKER 21 :
If I were a rich man. I’ve been forced over the years to watch a couple of plays of Fiddler on the Roof, and that was enough for me.
SPEAKER 26 :
I don’t think I ever want to watch Fiddler on the Roof again.
SPEAKER 23 :
Tevye negotiating with God. That’s deal-making. Trust me. Well, yeah. Okay. True.
SPEAKER 26 :
I love Fiddler on the Roof. Good job. My actual movies, though, are The Hunt for Red October and then Secondhand Lions because in Secondhand Lions, those uncles are just making deals left and right. This is true.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, okay, I’ll give you that.
SPEAKER 26 :
That’s very true. Good job, sir. And they’re very good at it. Either you tell us why we need this or we’ll shoot you.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, good point. Yeah. Good point. Yeah, that works.
SPEAKER 26 :
That’s a good negotiating tactic. John is going to be in his old age. He’s just going to sit on his porch there.
SPEAKER 21 :
That’ll be me someday. It already is, actually.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, that’s John now. John has actually constructed the entire studio here to look like a porch.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yes. We can just sit here.
SPEAKER 23 :
Make him comfortable.
SPEAKER 21 :
With shotguns. Yeah. Soren, thanks.
SPEAKER 23 :
All right, man.
SPEAKER 21 :
Appreciate you very much. All right, let’s squeeze another round in before break. Go ahead, Andy.
SPEAKER 23 :
Okay, this is one of the classic negotiating scenes. Kim Darby in True Grit. And I wish I had time to go through all of it, but it’s five minutes. So this is just one point where she is using her lawyer Daggett for leverage.
SPEAKER 04 :
I’ll take it up with my attorney.
SPEAKER 31 :
And I will take it up with my lawyer Daggett. And he will make money, and I will make money, and your lawyer will make money. And you, Mr. Likeson’s auctioneer, you will fit the bill.
SPEAKER 04 :
You are a damn nuisance. Lawyer Daggett, Lawyer Daggett. Who is this famous pleader whose name I was happily ignorant of ten minutes ago?
SPEAKER 31 :
Have you ever heard of the Great Arkansas River, Vicksburg, and Gulf and Steamship Company?
SPEAKER 04 :
I have done business with the G-A-V-N-G, yes.
SPEAKER 31 :
Well, he was the one that forced them into receivership.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh.
SPEAKER 31 :
They tried to mess with him.
SPEAKER 04 :
All right, come inside.
SPEAKER 23 :
And once again, there was so much Donald Trump in her. And I’m not kidding. She knew every pressure point. She knew every bit of leverage. And she did it several ways. And she got a ton of money out of this guy for nothing. It was unbelievable. One of the greatest negotiating scenes I’ve ever seen.
SPEAKER 21 :
I watched a clip of that the other night. So yeah, absolutely. Just brilliant.
SPEAKER 23 :
Richard, you’re up.
SPEAKER 27 :
And this is from my wife, which is, The Oceans films.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER 27 :
All of them. And I’m just going to look them all together. Obviously, one big deal-making, because even though they’re stealing, they’re making deals because they’ve got to get people to do things for them.
SPEAKER 23 :
I just had Oceans 11 done.
SPEAKER 21 :
Absolutely, yeah, because all of them have that same theme. No, she’s right. Absolutely. Okay, I have one that is not a stretch. You might think of it being a stretch to begin with, but it’s not, because especially… The main killer in this movie has several different scenes where he is literally negotiating, i.e. flipping the coin as to whether somebody is going to live or die, and that would be no country for old men.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 21 :
Correct?
SPEAKER 23 :
Yes.
SPEAKER 21 :
And there’s other negotiations outside of that, but he negotiates several times just for their lives.
SPEAKER 23 :
You know, that’s kind of your Team America.
SPEAKER 21 :
True.
SPEAKER 23 :
I love that show. You go to No Country for Old Men even more than Schindler’s List.
SPEAKER 21 :
I do. It’s a great movie as well. Llewellyn. What a name for a guy.
SPEAKER 23 :
What if Schindler’s List was made into a musical? Would you see it?
SPEAKER 21 :
No, no, I would not.
SPEAKER 23 :
Everything you want and everything you don’t want.
SPEAKER 21 :

SPEAKER 03 :
The best export we have is common sense.
SPEAKER 21 :
You’re listening to Rush to Reason. All right, movie rental. It is that hour. We switched things up this week back and forth, so we’ll have movie reviews next hour. Art of the Deal, trades and deals in movies. Andy, you’re up.
SPEAKER 23 :
Okay, you know, John, you look pretty happy. Are you a happy guy?
SPEAKER 21 :
Most of the time.
SPEAKER 23 :
Let me fix that. I’m going to do some music.
SPEAKER 21 :
Here we go.
SPEAKER 23 :
Thanks. All right, here’s the negotiating scene in The Greatest Showman.
SPEAKER 20 :
Sir, looks like you have yourself a junior partner.
SPEAKER 03 :
What I have is an overcompensated apprentice.
SPEAKER 23 :
Do you do this every time you cinch a deal? I mean, do you dance with the person and you’ll sing, get up on top of bars?
SPEAKER 21 :
No.
SPEAKER 23 :
You’re nothing like I expected.
SPEAKER 21 :
No, that, yeah. Nothing there intrigues me to say, I got to go home and watch that movie.
SPEAKER 27 :
Richard, is he wrong? He is very wrong, and it’s okay. He’s wrong frequently, folks. I understand that some of you don’t think so, but he is.
SPEAKER 21 :
What about that makes you want to go watch that movie?
SPEAKER 23 :
It’s entertaining. John, many years ago, God brought to you a son for the purpose of correcting you.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, gotcha. And he’s here now. He is here now. Yes, he is.
SPEAKER 23 :
Good job, Richard.
SPEAKER 21 :
You’re welcome, Andy.
SPEAKER 23 :
Just so you don’t forget it.
SPEAKER 21 :
The greatest showman, okay.
SPEAKER 23 :
Richard, you’re up.
SPEAKER 21 :
You’re up.
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, Richard.
SPEAKER 27 :
Yeah. Richard. All right. Andy, it would not be a movie rental segment if I didn’t mention a TV show, just so you know. Cheater! But when you combine them, Andy, it’s like multiple movies. And this is from my wife again, which is Kiki Blinders.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, I’ve only started watching a little bit of that. Yeah, that kind of is, isn’t it?
SPEAKER 27 :
It’s not bad.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 27 :
I mean, there’s some slow parts to it, but there’s lots of deal-making, and for folks that don’t know, it’s essentially like the Irish, right? Are there Irish in this?
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 27 :
Irish mafia.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, it is. That’s exactly what it is.
SPEAKER 27 :
In Ireland and London, and then they come to America. Right. It’s good. It’s good.
SPEAKER 21 :
Pretty true to what happened back then.
SPEAKER 23 :
By the way, John, do you know that your son every week breaks the deal? Yes. By using a TV show?
SPEAKER 21 :
Yes, he does.
SPEAKER 23 :
I just thought I’d mention that.
SPEAKER 21 :
He does. You’re up, sir. Let’s see here. How about… The Founder, which I watched the other night.
SPEAKER 23 :
I have not seen it.
SPEAKER 21 :
About Roy Kroc, or Ray Kroc, I should say. Oh, Ray Kroc, there you go. McDonald’s, and he actually ended up taking, literally through negotiations and so on, took McDonald’s to where it is today. Well, not today because he’s passed, but he put it on its path, and the original McDonald’s brothers never would have had more than a single restaurant. It’s a really good movie, but it also shows that Ray was very ruthless.
SPEAKER 23 :
Right.
SPEAKER 21 :
And understood the art of the deal.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yes, he did. He understood leverage. Okay. Here’s one, a scene where the cop and the informant are just handing money back and forth, bribing each other in the naked gun.
SPEAKER 17 :
You familiar with that face? I don’t know. My memory ain’t so great. Oh, yeah? Maybe this will refresh your memory.
SPEAKER 19 :
I don’t know. It’s still kind of hazy.
SPEAKER 17 :
How about this?
SPEAKER 19 :
Yeah, I remember him. I used to see him around. Why do you want to know?
SPEAKER 17 :
I can’t tell you that.
SPEAKER 19 :
Well, maybe this will help.
SPEAKER 17 :
I really don’t think I should.
SPEAKER 19 :
Yeah, you still don’t think so.
SPEAKER 17 :
All right, his name is Nordberg, the cop. He was no cop. He was dealing H. What?
SPEAKER 18 :
I’m telling you, he was dirty. Oh, you snuffling scum. I ought to run you in right now. All right, all right. He worked at Ludwig Shipping. He tried to push something on one of my boys, I swear it. So what are you going to do about it, copper?
SPEAKER 17 :
Why should I tell you? Maybe this will help. I still don’t think I should tell you.
SPEAKER 19 :
Can you spot me at 20?
SPEAKER 17 :
How about now? All right, I’m going down to Ludwig’s office. I’ll find out if you’re telling the truth.
SPEAKER 23 :
Aren’t they remaking this? Yeah, they’re remaking it with… With who? With Liam Neeson.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah. I know, but… It won’t be the same. I’m sorry. It can’t be.
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, it won’t be. No. So he hands him the dollar. No, he hands him the 20 and says, maybe this will do it. He says, it’s like to be enough. Well, can you spot me 20? He gives him the 20 back. Then he hands it back to him.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, my gosh. Who is it with again, Charlie? Pamela Anderson, Liam Neeson.
SPEAKER 23 :
There you go.
SPEAKER 21 :
I don’t picture it being the same.
SPEAKER 23 :
No.
SPEAKER 21 :
I don’t care how well they do, and nothing against those two, but it won’t be the same. I’m sure they’ll have some moments, but it’ll be so hard. It won’t be the same. I’m sorry.
SPEAKER 27 :
Richard, you’re up. Oh, Andy, you are correct. I mean, it may be the same. It’ll be semi-funny, right?
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, it will be. We’ll see. It all depends if they actually take their time to write it, but go ahead.
SPEAKER 27 :
All right, Andy, this is going to be one that maybe people don’t think of when they think of trades. but I feel like this is a really good one, and you and I enjoy it. Maybe, well, let me say this. It’s cheesy. It’s not entirely accurate, but it’s entertaining, and a lot of times that’s what we’re looking for in movies, Andy, and that is Draft Day with Kevin Costner.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, yeah. Totally. Totally. That’s on my list. Good one. No, no, that is about, like, that is negotiating all the way through. And that is typical for NFL teams, period. Right, guys? You guys know that better than I do.
SPEAKER 27 :
Well, I mean, yeah, they’re always, I mean, the actual deals that they make, like where he trades, you know. He trades three first-rounders. That actually would make sense, Andy, to move up, although he traded a little bit too much. Sounds like the Broncos. Well, he trades his second-rounders, and he gets all of his – it’s not realistic. But the always trading, always negotiating is definitely part of the draft experience.
SPEAKER 21 :
Okay, wait a minute. Time out. You say that’s not really realistic. What did the Broncos do to get Russell Wilson back in the day?
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, you know, the interesting thing – They traded two. Richard – When your children are finally grown up and have college degrees, the Broncos will finish paying off that deal.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, there you go. Exactly. Andy, Andy, Andy, Andy. Such a bad deal.
SPEAKER 27 :
Andy, we’re not all so lucky to draft. you know, to go from Brett Favre to Aaron Rodgers to Jordan Love, all right? You know, some of us have Tim Tebow’s and Paxton Lynch’s in between our great quarterbacks.
SPEAKER 23 :
You finally got one.
SPEAKER 21 :
We have a good one now.
SPEAKER 23 :
You got a good one now.
SPEAKER 21 :
We do.
SPEAKER 23 :
We do.
SPEAKER 21 :
It’s been a long wait.
SPEAKER 23 :
We do.
SPEAKER 21 :
We do.
SPEAKER 22 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 21 :
All right. Is it my turn? Yeah. Okay. It has to be in here, and I know it’s not a movie you’d want your kids to watch, but it is literally deal-making the entire movie, Wolf of Wall Street.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah. And no, that’s not for the kiddies.
SPEAKER 21 :
From the get-go until the end, it’s a deal-making movie.
SPEAKER 23 :
You have to be roughly 90 to be old enough to watch that movie and not be totally jaded by the movie. Okay. Well, how is that any different than Team America?
SPEAKER 1 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 23 :
It isn’t. Okay. It isn’t. Okay. Okay, here’s an obvious one. Sometimes there are deals that you make that, well, you’re not actually making a deal. They have no choice. Here we go.
SPEAKER 30 :
You look terrible. I should eat. I want you to rest well, and a month from now, this Hollywood big shot’s going to give you what you want. Too late. They start shooting in a week. I’m going to make them an offer they can’t refuse.
SPEAKER 21 :
I’m going to make him an offer he can’t refuse.
SPEAKER 23 :
Godfather, of course.
SPEAKER 21 :
That’s all negotiating.
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER 21 :
Good point.
SPEAKER 23 :
At the end of a gun. Okay, Richard, you’re up.
SPEAKER 27 :
You know, Andy, there’s, I actually think, I saw something or heard something about this, that he actually went to, like, a special, or he wore a special prosthetic.
SPEAKER 21 :
In his mouth.
SPEAKER 27 :
On his mouth to make, yeah, to make his jaw, and it also made him sound like that.
SPEAKER 21 :
That’s right.
SPEAKER 27 :
So they did multiple things to help him.
SPEAKER 21 :
And he could only wear it for so long before it bothered him and he had to take it out, and yes, that’s very true.
SPEAKER 27 :
Yeah, it started irritating him.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yes, you are correct. It was very cool. Yeah.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 27 :
Richard, you’re on. All right, Andy, I’m going to go down the sports path saying, obviously, this is an easy one to go with, but that’s Moneyball.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER 23 :
I was already about to line it off as you were teeing it up.
SPEAKER 21 :
It’s another great movie, by the way.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, good movie. Fantastic. If he’s a good hitter, how come he doesn’t hit good?
SPEAKER 21 :
Absolutely.
SPEAKER 23 :
I love it.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, let’s see here. Okay. Gosh, there’s so many. War Dogs. War Dogs.
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, okay. Yeah, I had not seen different lists. Okay. Okay. I’m suddenly spacing the name. What’s the movie about? Here it is. Two weeks notice. And this is Sandra Bullock.
SPEAKER 08 :
Do we have a deal?
SPEAKER 23 :
No.
SPEAKER 15 :
I want something else from you.
SPEAKER 08 :
Oh, no. I am fully aware of your reputation and there’s no way you’re getting that.
SPEAKER 15 :
Getting what?
SPEAKER 08 :
You know. Sex. That’s not going to happen.
SPEAKER 15 :
No, that would be nice. But what I really need is a new chief counsel.
SPEAKER 08 :
Well, I think I’d prefer the sex.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay, if you take the job, I promise to save your community center. On top of which, you can direct all our pro bono efforts. That’s millions of dollars at your charitable disposal.
SPEAKER 08 :
But you couldn’t possibly want me. I’ve spent my entire life working against people like you.
SPEAKER 15 :
Well, maybe if you work for me, you’ll win occasionally. I need an answer, I’m afraid, pretty much immediately. So here is my direct number at the Grand Hotel.
SPEAKER 08 :
You live at a hotel?
SPEAKER 15 :
Well, I own a hotel and I live there. My life is very much like Monopoly. And I know you wouldn’t care, but I’ll start you at $250,000.
SPEAKER 23 :
How can you say no? I know. And I think Trump was in that. Oh, really?
SPEAKER 21 :
Like a cameo or something?
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, I think he was.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, that’s hilarious.
SPEAKER 23 :
There you go. Richard, you’re up.
SPEAKER 27 :
Oh, let’s see here. Andy. Oh, that’s a good one. I guess I didn’t think about that one in that sense. It was a funny movie, by the way.
SPEAKER 23 :
Very good movie.
SPEAKER 27 :
It was. Very good. All right, Andy, you said it. Well, Dad, I should say you said we’re from Wall Street. So I’m going to go with the old Michael Douglas, Charlie Sheen here, which is just Wall Street.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah. And the first one was still the best. Even though it was old, still the best.
SPEAKER 23 :
I agree. Yeah.
SPEAKER 21 :
So fresh. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Because Andy mentioned… I mentioned Sandra Bullock, and I watched a clip of this the other night. And I’ve not really forgotten the movie, but it’s one of those that when it’s on, I’ll watch it. I won’t go watch it on purpose, but the proposal. Because it is a deal where he gets a big promotion, can actually be an editor, and do all sorts of things in the company if he agrees to pretend he’s going to marry her. But then actually does end up falling in love and all that. And it’s actually a really funny movie, by the way.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, I think that’s a really good example.
SPEAKER 21 :
All the way through, it’s hilarious.
SPEAKER 23 :
Okay, well, you know what? Sometimes deals are threats. Okay. Here we go.
SPEAKER 12 :
Mr. President, after I destroy Washington, D.C., I will destroy another major city every hour on the hour. That is, unless, of course, you pay me $100 billion. $100 billion.
SPEAKER 20 :
Dr. Evil is 1969. That amount of money doesn’t even exist. That’s like saying, I want a kajillion bajillion dollars.
SPEAKER 12 :
Mr. President, allow me to demonstrate the awesome lethality of the Alan Parsons project.
SPEAKER 1 :
Fire the laser! Fire the laser!
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh my word.
SPEAKER 22 :
It shows just a scene of blowing up the Capitol in Independence Day. It’s so funny.
SPEAKER 21 :
Richard, you’re up. So stupid.
SPEAKER 27 :
All right, Andy, I’ve got to go with another silly, silly movie. And there’s deals being made in here. It’s just different times. Galaxy Quest, Andy. Oh, yeah. Absolutely. Miners, not miners. That’s so funny.
SPEAKER 21 :
Okay. I love that movie. Let’s see here. Okay, here’s one where he makes, in an odd way… deal after deal after deal after deal because he continually is, how should I say this? He is disguising things and making deals at the same time. Catch me if you can.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, I think that works. Yeah, I totally think that works. Okay, how about some poor negotiating skills? And that would be Ellis in Die Hard.
SPEAKER 34 :
Personally, I couldn’t care less about your politics. Maybe you’re pissed off at the camel jockeys, maybe it’s the heaves, Northern Ireland. It’s none of my business. I figure you’re here to negotiate. Am I right?
SPEAKER 17 :
You’re amazing. You figured this all out already.
SPEAKER 34 :
Hey, business is business. You use a gun, I use a fountain pen. What’s the difference? Let’s put it in my terms. You’re here in a hostile takeover. You grab us for some green mail, but you didn’t expect some poison pill was gonna be running around in the building. Am I right? Hans… Boobie, I’m your white knight.
SPEAKER 23 :
Boobie. Boobie. I mean, did anyone ever set himself up more to die?
SPEAKER 21 :
No.
SPEAKER 23 :
Than Ellis, a diehard. You’re like, gosh, it was unbelievable. He might as well have just thrown himself into a wood chipper.
SPEAKER 21 :
Good point.
SPEAKER 23 :
It was funny. Okay, Richard, you’re up.
SPEAKER 27 :
The Company Men.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, yeah, I just was looking at that one.
SPEAKER 23 :
I did not think of that.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, that one works. Good job. Absolutely, that one works.
SPEAKER 23 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 21 :
How about The Family Man? Oh. It’s not only a Christmas movie, but it’s a negotiating movie as well.
SPEAKER 23 :
Little Nick Cage. All right. We’re going to go back to little Adam Sandler and just go with it. He’s talking to kids here, trying to get them to do something. All right.
SPEAKER 05 :
What do you want? $600 for the day, plus overtime if we go over eight hours. I’ll do my own hair and makeup, and I want you to pay for the six-week intensive acting camp that my mom can’t afford. Okay.
SPEAKER 06 :
$50 for the day and a two-week acting class at the YMCA nearest you.
SPEAKER 05 :
$500 and a four-week acting class.
SPEAKER 06 :
$300 and a three-week class.
SPEAKER 05 :
Done.
SPEAKER 06 :
I would have done it for $500.
SPEAKER 05 :
I would have done it for the experience.
SPEAKER 21 :
That’s a good movie, by the way.
SPEAKER 05 :
Yeah, it’s cute.
SPEAKER 21 :
And there’s lots of negotiation, not just that one, but a lot.
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, yes, quite a bit.
SPEAKER 21 :
Over and over again. But it’s good. Oh, that’s a hilarious movie. One of my favorites. Richard, you’re up.
SPEAKER 27 :
All right, Dad, this would also not be a movie segment if we didn’t annoy you. And my wife gets mad at me for doing some of the same movies. But partly why we do some of the same movies is because it annoys certain people on the show, Andy. And that would be a movie I finally got to watch, Andy, on the plane ride, which is Mad Max Furiosa.
SPEAKER 21 :
It’s not even a movie.
SPEAKER 27 :
Yes, Furiosa. That was pretty good.
SPEAKER 21 :
I enjoyed that. How did they negotiate in that? It’s boring.
SPEAKER 27 :
It was pretty good, Andy. I mean, see, they’re all kind of funny, and I guess I… sort of put two and two together. I didn’t realize, obviously, it was the one before Fury Road, Andy. It’s like, you know, the sequel to the prequel in a lot of ways. But I thought it was good. I thought they did a good job. Yes, it’s Mad Max. It was good. You know, the kind of weird cinematography, all the other things.
SPEAKER 21 :
Boring.
SPEAKER 27 :
But it was a good… No, it’s not boring.
SPEAKER 23 :
You’re totally wrong, John.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, it’s awful. It’s awful.
SPEAKER 23 :
John, many years ago, God brought you a son.
SPEAKER 21 :
All they need to do in that movie, all they need to do in that movie to make it even worse is start singing. If they sung, it would even be worse than it is.
SPEAKER 23 :
I want to see Furiosa on ice.
SPEAKER 21 :
So bad.
SPEAKER 27 :
But the only thing that would make that movie bad is having them sing. Because it’s not meant for singing. Which you should like it, because there’s not an… I know.
SPEAKER 23 :
an ounce of actual stinging that should happen in that movie so you should love it the only thing i didn’t like is um what’s his name chris hemsworth who i by the way thought did a great job they dragged out some of his scenes too much and it’s just kind of like okay pick it up pick it up but overall very good very good i’m with you i i didn’t really love him in the movie like i get why he had to be there and they it was it was kind of like a little bit of
SPEAKER 27 :
Some of the other Avengers movies and stuff, Andy, where they kind of tried a little bit too hard with some of his stuff. Agreed. But overall, it was a good movie.
SPEAKER 23 :
All right, John.
SPEAKER 21 :
I’m surprised you guys haven’t mentioned this one yet. A true story, The Social Network.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, just hadn’t gotten to it.
SPEAKER 21 :
Okay, all right.
SPEAKER 23 :
All right, shall I do another?
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, let’s do it. We’ve got a couple minutes. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 23 :
Okay, here we go. Hades negotiating with Hercules.
SPEAKER 07 :
Hello? Let her go! Here’s the trade-off. You give up your strength for about 24 hours, okay? Say the next 24 hours, and Meg here is free as a bird and safe from harm. We dance, we kiss, we schmooze, we carry on, we go home happy. What do you say? Come on.
SPEAKER 34 :
People are gonna get hurt, aren’t they?
SPEAKER 07 :
Nah, I mean, it’s, you know, it’s a possibility. It happens, you know, it’s war, but what can I tell you? Anyway, what do you owe these people, huh? Isn’t Meg, isn’t she more important than David? Stop it! Isn’t she? You’ve got to swear she’ll be safe from any harm. Fine, okay. I’ll give you that one. Make her safe. Otherwise, you get your strength right back at her. You had a fine print boilerplate bubble, okay? What do you say we shake on it? I really don’t have, like, time to bat this around. I’m kind of on a schedule here. I’ve got plans for August, okay? I need an answer right now. Going once, going twice.
SPEAKER 22 :
All right. Yes, we’re there, fam!
SPEAKER 23 :
Now, the beauty of this is Hades is played by James Woods, who is also a huge supporter of who? Trump. Donald Trump. Making deals. Yep. All right. Richard, you up?
SPEAKER 27 :
Andy, in honor of that, and in honor of my kids, and mainly my daughter, because she will appreciate this one, it is mainly built on a deal. And that is The Little Mermaid.
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, totally. Poor, unfortunate souls. Yeah, Ursula and Ariel making deals. Excellent, excellent.
SPEAKER 21 :
All right.
SPEAKER 23 :
Don’t have time for the clip, but go.
SPEAKER 21 :
Older movie, but good door-to-door.
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, good. Okay, how about this one? How about paying some people to be your family? We’re the Millers.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, that’s a good one, too.
SPEAKER 23 :
Richard, you’re up.
SPEAKER 27 :
Oh, yeah. That was hilarious. That was a good one. Jerry Maguire.
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, yes. Show me the money.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 23 :
Show me the money. Yep, totally. Go ahead, John.
SPEAKER 21 :
Matchstick Man. Yes.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yes. Okay, do we have time? No more clips, right?
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, just let’s roll through a couple rounds.
SPEAKER 23 :
Okay, Green Book.
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh. It was a deal the entire way that he was going to be there for him.
SPEAKER 23 :
I won’t do the clip. Go, Richard.
SPEAKER 27 :
Ghost Rider.
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, yeah. I’ve got that clip, too. I won’t do it. Go ahead, John. Ghost Rider. White Gold. White Gold. Nicely done. How about Air?
SPEAKER 21 :
Oh, good one, Andy. The entire thing was about inking a deal. Yeah, good one, Andy. Great job.
SPEAKER 23 :
Okay, go ahead, Richard.

Air conditioning season is starting in Colorado. Are you ready? Take advantage of Geno’s Auto’s air conditioning recharge special. Is your vehicle’s air conditioning ready to keep you cool on hot Colorado days? We all know how fast Colorado can heat up. The refrigerant in your air conditioning system gets contaminants, evaporates, and breaks down over time. That refrigerant needs to be able to absorb heat to be able to cool your vehicle’s interior. Geno’s uses a cooling machine that takes out the old refrigerant and cleans it. Then they put the clean refrigerant back, topping off with Freon at the right level. To make your life simpler, Geno’s offers loaner vehicles so you can drop your car off and pick up when ready. We back up our work with Napa’s nationwide 36-month, 36,000-mile warranty. Stay cool this summer by making sure your system is up to date and ready for this year’s summer heat. Give us a call or go online to schedule an appointment. We’re AAA approved and located at Bowles and Platte Canyon. Stop in or visit us online at genosautoservice.com.
