SPEAKER 14 :
This is Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 04 :
You are going to shut your damn yapper and listen for a change because I got you pegged, sweetheart. You want to take the easy way out because you’re scared. And you’re scared because if you try and fail, there’s only you to blame. Let me break this down for you. Life is scary. Get used to it.
SPEAKER 12 :
There are no magical fixes. With your host, John Rush.
SPEAKER 15 :
My advice to you is to do what your parents did.
SPEAKER 20 :
Get a job, sir. You haven’t made everybody equal. You’ve made them the same, and there’s a big difference.
SPEAKER 33 :
Let me tell you why you’re here. You’re here because you know something. What you know you can’t explain, but you feel it. You’ve felt it your entire life, that there’s something wrong with the world. You don’t know what it is, but it’s there. It is this feeling that has brought you to me.
SPEAKER 36 :
Are you crazy? Am I? Or am I so sane that you just blew your mind?
SPEAKER 14 :
It’s Rush to Reason with your host, John Rush, presented by Cub Creek Heating and Air Conditioning.
SPEAKER 16 :
All right, welcome back. Hour number two, Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560. Myself, Andy Pate, Charlie Grimes, of course, our engineer, and we are going to do TV shows and movies with moms, of course, in honor of… Mother’s Day.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yes, we are. But before we do, I’m sorry, I’ve got one more. One more driving pet peeve? This one makes me about as angry as I am capable of getting. Okay. Without talking politics. Okay. Okay, folks, when you are turning left, you’re in the left turn lane in an intersection.
SPEAKER 16 :
Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER 17 :
And it’s green, but you’re waiting for the traffic that’s coming at you. You’re waiting for them to pass. Pull out into the intersection. That is all part of your lane up until it breaks to the left. Up until you go into oncoming traffic, that’s all part of your lane. Do not wait back at the line. You’re holding back other people. And here’s what these people do. They wait back at the line and you’re behind them. You’re stuck behind them. You can get two cars into the intersection. No problem. They’re waiting back at the line. And then what do they do when it turns yellow?
SPEAKER 16 :
Wait until it’s all the way red. Yeah, they go. In some cases.
SPEAKER 17 :
And you get stuck. Or they stay and you’re all stuck.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah. And it’s a disaster.
SPEAKER 17 :
You have to think about people behind you.
SPEAKER 16 :
You’re up front. You can go through. Most don’t think that way. Come on now.
SPEAKER 17 :
I know, but look, being in traffic.
SPEAKER 16 :
You’re asking too much for people here, Andy.
SPEAKER 17 :
No, I’m not. I do. I think about other people.
SPEAKER 16 :
I do, too.
SPEAKER 17 :
I don’t want people stuck. I’ve seen you drive, John. You don’t want people stuck behind you unnecessarily.
SPEAKER 16 :
No, in fact, the minute the car in front of me goes, the nanosecond the car in front of me moves, guess who else is moving? You. Me.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yes. It’s perfectly legal. Folks, I literally believe there are a lot of drivers here in America who don’t understand that it’s legal. Like, they’ve never read a driving handbook. Folks, that is all part of your lane until you go into their lane.
SPEAKER 16 :
Right. Pull out. I agree. I agree. All right. Michael, you’re up. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 09 :
John, it’s really good to talk to you again. You probably don’t remember me, but this is Michael the Millennial in Denver. Oh, yeah. I called in a couple years ago. Yeah, how are you, Michael? I’m doing great. I’m doing great. It’s great to talk to you. And, Andy, this is the first time I’ve ever gotten to talk to you, so thank you for all you do. Hi, Michael. First of all, as well. Hey, it’s great to talk to you, Andy. So I had a comment on the driving pet peeve and on movies. Yes, yes, go for it. Yeah, texting and driving. You know, there was a recent survey that said up to 54% of my age group, millennials, text and drive. Yep, I see it. The worst thing is at a red light when you’re sitting there, you know, they’re on their phone texting.
SPEAKER 17 :
And they’re not ready for the light.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yep. Exactly.
SPEAKER 16 :
Really quick, Michael, you just said that, and Andy and I, at the top of the hour, just not more than five minutes ago, were talking about the exact same thing.
SPEAKER 17 :
We were.
SPEAKER 09 :
Oh, okay. I might have been on hold.
SPEAKER 16 :
No, no, we weren’t on air. We were off air, just at the top of the hour, in the hallway, talking about the exact same thing you’re talking about right now. Yeah, you read our minds. Exactly. Took the words out of our mouth.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, guys. I think it’s… pull over, you know, I mean, well, put the phone down. I mean, if you’re out on the road and there’s no one around, I can understand a quick text, honey, I’ll be home soon, whatever. But folks don’t be doing these long text things post, you know, no drive, drive, drive. Yeah.
SPEAKER 09 :
And also I think like a lot of the younger generation, like some 29, but the Gen Z they’ll be on Snapchat, you know, at a red light, like, you know, get popularity. And I just, It’s the kind of culture these days. But as you can tell, I’m not like most of the people in my age group.
SPEAKER 16 :
You are not.
SPEAKER 09 :
You are not.
SPEAKER 17 :
By the way, Michael, really quick, before you move on, could you please tell the rest of the people in your age group to vote better?
SPEAKER 09 :
Exactly.
SPEAKER 17 :
It would help us out, I’m just saying.
SPEAKER 09 :
Trump got the majority of the young vote. This is true.
SPEAKER 17 :
Good point.
SPEAKER 09 :
You’re right. I guess what I’m saying is have them do it here in Colorado. Yeah. Oh, right. But it’s interesting. You know, your radio people, I hear Dan Kaplan might be running. So that’s interesting. I don’t.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah. Who knows? No, I’m just joking. I like Dan.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah, he’s a great guy. But no, on movies, Freaky Friday with Jamie Lee Curtis. Ooh, that’s on my list.
SPEAKER 16 :
Hold on, that is not on my list, so hang on, I gotta put that on here.
SPEAKER 17 :
Good one, good one. And by the way, the sequel’s coming out this summer.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh.
SPEAKER 17 :
Freakier Friday.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 09 :
Right. And then for TV shows, we got The Simpsons, Marge Simpson. Really good. I mean, obviously, all-time classic, but Both of those are kind of, you know, good ones. And Malcolm in the Middle, too. That was, you know, a newer show. Hilarious. Hilarious.
SPEAKER 17 :
One second, one second. You’ve got to let me play a little Marge. Here you go. It’s real quick. Go for it. Okay.
SPEAKER 26 :
Courts might not work anymore, but as long as everybody is videotaping everyone else, justice will be done.
SPEAKER 17 :
The courts aren’t working anymore, but as long as everyone’s videotaping each other, justice will be done. Justice will be done.
SPEAKER 09 :
I love Marge Simpson. Good one. Absolutely. All right, guys. Well, thank you so much. You bet, Michael.
SPEAKER 16 :
Appreciate you very much. Have a great rest of your day. Joe, you’re next. Go ahead, Joe.
SPEAKER 10 :
Guys, I’m driving, coming off a highway onto a four-lane city road or county road, and there’s a merge lane, but the merge lane goes 500 yards before it disappears, and people stop.
SPEAKER 16 :
In other words, it’s a continuous lane.
SPEAKER 10 :
It’s a continuous lane. By the way, sometimes it becomes… A permanent third lane. Right. But at a minimum, it’s a couple of hundred yards. And the whole purpose is to allow you to accelerate.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yes! Joe, really quick, around here, and you’ll know this really quick, so will Andy, so will Charlie. One of the largest pet peeves I have around here, along the lines of what you are talking about, is… From I-25, taking the ramp around to go on 225 east, down south, you know, down at the interchange, whereby when you get on to 225, you are now in the left lane. There’s no merge lane. It is a continuous beginning of the left lane onto 225, and everybody slows down when they get on 225. Yep.
SPEAKER 10 :
It is so dangerous.
SPEAKER 16 :
It drives me crazy.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yep, and even if it’s not a continuous lane, but many times it is, but even if it’s only 500 yards long, the purpose is to allow you to come up to speed so you can facilitate your merge. That’s right. It is not a freaking stop sign. No, it is not. It is not. Yield signs, you know, merge signs are triangular, I think.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yes, they are.
SPEAKER 17 :
You know, Joe, my wife always says this. If you’re that afraid to be out here, don’t. Don’t.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, don’t drive. I say this, too. Yeah, don’t drive. No.
SPEAKER 17 :
All right, guys, that’s all I have.
SPEAKER 16 :
That’s right, Joe. Appreciate you very much. Thank you. Al, you’re next. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 18 :
Hey, yeah, one of my pet peeves or my major pet peeve driving is Subaru drivers.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, I mean, I do this on Drive Radio occasionally, which is, you know, give me a stereotype of a particular car where you know the driver will be bad. Yeah, that’s one of the top ones, Al.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, they’re the worst.
SPEAKER 16 :
And I own a Subie. It’s one of those. Yes, it is, Al. That’s it. It’s an umbrella concept. Yeah, there are some others that I could add to that list, but that’s one of the top.
SPEAKER 17 :
Al, really quick here before you go. What is it about Subaru drivers? How do they drive?
SPEAKER 18 :
They drive very slow, like in the left lane. Yeah, because they’re nannies. Speed police. Yeah, they’re all nannies. And it’s just like… It’s like they’re just not paying attention. It’s really just slow in the left lane. Yes. That’s like the major thing.
SPEAKER 16 :
Well, two things. They’re the ones that Joe was mentioning a moment ago that won’t do the continuous lane thing either.
SPEAKER 18 :
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, and they’re also the ones who don’t turn left on a light. On what Andy was saying. When it’s one way to one way.
SPEAKER 16 :
That’s right. Yeah, it’s just like they’re just clueless. I know.
SPEAKER 17 :
You know, and let me totally stereotype them one more time, Al. Some of them might be a little bit chemically enhanced. I’m just saying. Probably. Yeah, if they open the window, you might see not such clear air. No, you could be right. Yeah, absolutely.
SPEAKER 18 :
Yeah, I used to think it was like maybe the fumes coming out of the plastic of the dashboard that was getting them high. I don’t know. There’s something about the car or the people who pick the car.
SPEAKER 16 :
It’s usually the person driving that picks that car. All right. Thanks, guys. Thanks, Al. Appreciate you very much. All right. Let’s take a break. We’ll come back, get into movies. Paul Lumberger coming up next. He is my personal insurance agent, I should say. He’s a broker now. He can shop for you as to whatever you need when it comes to your insurance.

All right. Now, when it comes to traffic driving, all of that, we do have somebody you can call if you have any issues at all when it comes to being in an accident. The other side’s not doing their part. You name it. Kevin is there to represent and help you. Kevin Flesch, 303-806-8886.
SPEAKER 03 :
Here’s why you need personal injury attorney Kevin Flesch on your side. He understands the way the jury thinks. In the context of a personal injury case, you’ve been hurt by someone else’s negligence. The idea is that you’re going to try to recover so that you can get back to where you were just prior to that incident occurring. What that really means from a jurist perspective is that you’re going to be asking them to award you money. So when we talk about fairness, we’re talking about six people that you don’t know. Those six people view the evidence and make a unanimous decision that will decide what the fair value is. When you’re the one who’s hurt, you have a good idea of what you think it’s worth. The question is, can you persuade those other individuals whom you don’t know and were witnesses to believe that’s what the case is worth? Kevin Flesch understands the way the jury thinks. Call now for a free consultation. 303-806-8886

SPEAKER 16 :
Putting reason into your afternoon drive, this is John Rush. All right, we are back. Going to go through movies now. Andy and I do this every week. Richard normally is with us, but he’s on vacation this week, so he’s not able to join us. But movies and or TV shows with moms.
SPEAKER 17 :
We’re going to do that, but I have to say one more. Go ahead. I just said it. People who don’t get good tires in the winter in Colorado, if you’ve got to go up 70, and you’re slipping and sliding.
SPEAKER 16 :
There’s laws now that you’re supposed to be abiding by, but they don’t.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, so what? Okay, here we go. I’ve got to go to just the classic, probably of all time, Mama from the Waterboy. Here we go.
SPEAKER 20 :
Foosball?
SPEAKER 19 :
You playing the foosball behind my back? The only reason I’m doing it is so I can go to school. School? You going to school? I’m sorry, Mama. I wanted to tell you.
SPEAKER 20 :
You all gallivanting with your fancy foosball friends at school while I’m sitting here all day with nobody to keep me company except Steve? Steve.
SPEAKER 1 :
Steve.
SPEAKER 20 :
The chickens are coming home to roost, Bobby Boucher. You reap the fruit of your selfish ways. You’re going to lose all your fancy foosball games. And you’re going to fail your big exam because school is the devil.
SPEAKER 19 :
Everything is the devil to you, mama.
SPEAKER 17 :
Okay. The devil. John, I’ve got a serious question for you. I mean this now. Okay. That was Kathy Bates.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 17 :
Why can someone like Kathy Bates not win Best Supporting Actress for a character in a comedy like that?
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, she was good. She was good.
SPEAKER 17 :
I mean, look at the character she created in that comedy.
SPEAKER 16 :
I know. She was great. Wow. When she’s a great actress, even though she’s a wacko liberal, she’s still a wacko liberal.
SPEAKER 17 :
But I mean, she is a phenomenal actress. She created an incredible character. I believe she should have been up for best actress, best supporting. It was a supporting role in that movie. What do you think?
SPEAKER 16 :
I would agree, and this is something that we’ve never really talked about. Maybe we’ve brushed across this in the past some. Adam Sandler and the talent that he is, and yet the lack of awards that he has not won over the years for the things that he has actually done is a crime in and of itself, Andy. And I think it’s part of the reason why she didn’t get that is because of him. Yeah, I agree. There’s something that Hollywood does not like about him, and I don’t know what that is, Andy.
SPEAKER 17 :
Hollywood doesn’t seem to understand. Or what about Jim Carrey in Liar Liar? When you put in a performance of that scale, of that level, why is that not a best actor? Why is best actor only somebody who is portraying, I don’t know, somebody dying of cancer, somebody dying of this, dying of that? Somebody who is impoverished in some country. I mean, guys, it doesn’t have to be serious to be best actor. A great performance is a great performance. You tell me, John, when is the last time you saw a better performance than Jim Carrey in Liar Liar?
SPEAKER 16 :
Andy, I don’t know that. I mean, you look at all of the things he did in that movie. Wow. Beating himself up in the bathroom. I mean, things like that. I mean, the performance was stellar.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, and somebody would say, well, that’s just his comedy shtick. Yeah, that was talent on parade.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, so what? Yeah, okay.
SPEAKER 17 :
Anyway, okay, back to TV and movie moms. Go. Sally Field, Forrest Gump.
SPEAKER 16 :
I mean, that’s another one where she was a supporting role, but yet was a major player in that entire movie. She was amazing.
SPEAKER 17 :
She was amazing. Here we go, really quick.
SPEAKER 27 :
Okay. What’s vacation mean? Vacation? Where Daddy went. Vacation’s when you go somewhere and you don’t ever come back.
SPEAKER 17 :
Now, Sally Field was already well regarded as a great actress, but what a performance. Awesome.
SPEAKER 16 :
Awesome. Yep. Agree. Absolutely fantastic.
SPEAKER 17 :
Okay. Elise Keaton from Family Ties. Here we go. Talking to Alex.
SPEAKER 27 :
When you were seven years old, we got in an argument because you wanted to walk to school by yourself.
SPEAKER 24 :
I remember. I remember. And I was right. And you let me go.
SPEAKER 28 :
Yes, but I followed you. And I hid behind trees and mailboxes to make sure you looked both ways and you crossed on the green.
SPEAKER 24 :
Did I? Yes.
SPEAKER 28 :
In fact, when another kid tried to cross in the middle of the block, he made a citizen’s arrest.
SPEAKER 16 :
That was a good show. That was a good show.
SPEAKER 17 :
Michael J. Fox, what a phenom he was.
SPEAKER 16 :
Played a really great conservative and turned out to be a wacko liberal.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, yeah, he was a wacko liberal, but he was an actor.
SPEAKER 16 :
He did well.
SPEAKER 17 :
You know, the funny thing is, the guy who was the dad on that show played a wacko liberal on the show.
SPEAKER 16 :
But was a conservative.
SPEAKER 17 :
He wasn’t a conservative, but he was much more conservative.
SPEAKER 16 :
In the eyes of Hollywood, he was a conservative.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, he was a moderate.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yes. Yes.
SPEAKER 17 :
Michael Grossman.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yes, absolutely. All right. Go ahead. Well, I don’t know if you have any clips of this, but Barbara Billingsley in Leave It to Be Her.
SPEAKER 17 :
I don’t because none of them really sell. I mean, there’s not much you can do with them.
SPEAKER 16 :
No, but that means like the, you know, probably one of the first key moms on TV. Am I right, Charlie? Going all the way back in time, probably when it came to TV characters, probably, you know, she was probably one of the top at that time.
SPEAKER 17 :
She was a mom that everybody wanted to have. Right. She was like the perfect mom. Barbara Billingsley, like she almost set the bar too high for mothers. Good point. Okay. Somebody who didn’t set it that high, but actually in a way she did because of what she had to put up with. Lois Griffin from Family Guy. Here we go.
SPEAKER 36 :
Hey, I’m home. I got groceries. You what? Yeah, I was driving past there, and we were out of some stuff, so I… You listen to me, you son of a bitch!
SPEAKER 25 :
I’ve got one thing in this lifetime! One thing! You always say I never do anything around here! Yeah, I like saying that more than I like you doing things. Dad, I got the rest from the car. Chris, run! You were right! She didn’t appreciate it! Oh, crap! That’s right. I do groceries.
SPEAKER 16 :
That is a show I never watched much.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, my gosh. She throws a cannon and hits Chris at a distance.
SPEAKER 16 :
Never really watched it. I mean, it’s funny, but I just never watched it.
SPEAKER 17 :
You know who did the voice of Chris there? Uh-uh. The teenage Chris. That’s the Napster from The Italian Job.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, okay. Okay. All right.
SPEAKER 17 :
All right. So there you go. Lois Griffin, though, was very funny. She obviously almost always played the straight guy to Peter, but she could be funny, too. All right, go.
SPEAKER 16 :
All right. I would be wrong or we would be wrong if we did not mention Jean Stapleton all in the family. Edith.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, she was great. Here we go. And this is a rather touching scene, actually. She’s talking to Michael. Okay.
SPEAKER 07 :
Can you hear why Archie yells at you? Ma, I know why he yells at me. He hates me.
SPEAKER 22 :
Oh, no, Mike. Archie yells at you because he’s jealous of you. Oh, Ma, I don’t want to listen to this. Oh, now, wait a minute. You will listen to me. Archie is jealous of you.
SPEAKER 07 :
Oh, come on, Ma.
SPEAKER 22 :
Now, that ain’t hard to understand, Mike. You’re going to college and you got your whole life ahead of you. Archie had to quit school to support his family. He ain’t never gonna be nothing more than he is right now. But you, you got a chance to be anything you wanna be. That’s why Archie’s jealous of you. He sees in you all the things that he could never be. So the next time Archie yells at you, try to be a little more understanding. Now, you think that over. And when you’re ready, come back in here with us and be with our friends.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, my gosh. Her performance, the performance of Jean Stapleton. It was almost breathtaking. And the performance of Carol O’Connor. Obviously, all four of the main characters. But really, those two were such unbelievably powerful characters on that show. And by the way, there is a show that was all… 100% left-wing agenda. All of it. In fact, it was the first show to be nonstop, in-your-face, left-wing agenda. But, John, they didn’t just do agenda. They did acting. They did writing. It was brilliant.
SPEAKER 16 :
What do you think? No, you were right. Let me squeeze one in here before we go to break. Okay, again, going back in time. Actually, that was yours. Oh, that was mine. Sorry. So we can go to break now, right? Yeah, we can go to break. Do you want to do another round?
SPEAKER 17 :
No, go ahead.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay, we’ll take a break. We’ll come back. Al Smith did an interview the other day with Travis, which I know we’ve played during the week. But take a listen. We’ll be back here in just a moment once Al is done.
SPEAKER 08 :
Al Smith from Golden Eagle Financial and the show you love, Retirement Unpacked, is here with me. How are you today, Al? I’m doing great. How are you, TJ? I’m doing great as well. I have a couple questions for you.
SPEAKER 34 :
As a financial advisor, do you also do taxes? No, I don’t prepare my clients’ taxes. I do, however, spend a lot of time talking to them about taxes. To use a sports analogy, tax preparation is like doing a recap of the game. What I do is more like creating a game plan and then following up over time to see how it’s working.
SPEAKER 08 :
And how much are taxes a part of that game plan that you create?
SPEAKER 34 :
Well, with so many different taxes we’re faced with, it becomes an important thing to take into consideration. It’s not how much income you have, but how much you get to keep. In addition to federal and state income taxes, there’s property taxes, state and local sales tax, and fees. And they all play a part in shrinking our income.
SPEAKER 08 :
What about people who already have really healthy balances in 401ks, IRAs? Won’t they be facing significant taxes as they draw income from those accounts? Well, it depends.
SPEAKER 34 :
Everybody’s situation’s a little bit different. There’s no one size that fits all when it comes to tax planning. But often when I work with people, we’ll create a strategy where we will convert traditional IRAs to Roth over time. And that not only reduces taxes in the future, but it will also lower the tax they’ll be paying on their Social Security.
SPEAKER 08 :
Is that kind of strategy really only for the wealthy?
SPEAKER 34 :
Not at all. Many of my clients who have modest IRAs have chosen to convert to Roth over time. They enjoy the freedom of having a tax-free nest egg that they can access on their own timeline rather than an RMD schedule.
SPEAKER 08 :
Well, that is excellent. And how can people reach you if they want to learn about their own taxation in retirement?
SPEAKER 34 :
You can reach me through KLZ or contact my office at 303-744-1128. And when you call, I’ll provide you with a summary of all the tax changes for 2025.
SPEAKER 08 :
You heard it here, folks. Good things from Golden Eagle Financial and Al Smith. Again, you can reach them at 303-744-1128 or just find them on the advertisers page at klzradio.com.

SPEAKER 12 :
Live and local, back to Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 16 :
All right, we are back. Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560. TV shows and movies with moms. Go ahead, Andy.
SPEAKER 17 :
All right, here’s a pretty classic one. Roseanne, here we go.
SPEAKER 35 :
You talking to me?
SPEAKER 17 :
they had such a chemistry on that show. And I didn’t think it was that well-written of a show. I thought it was just okay. But, boy, did they have chemistry.
SPEAKER 16 :
Another one I never watched a lot of.
SPEAKER 17 :
It didn’t really do it for me. It wasn’t like Family Ties.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay. All right. I would be wrong if I didn’t mention, or maybe I’m wrong for mentioning, Jennifer Coolidge in American Pie.
SPEAKER 1 :
Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER 16 :
You are wrong.
SPEAKER 17 :
And, yes, you are wrong for mentioning that this is a family show. Okay. You know, so you might be in a bit of trouble. Oh, hey, Crawford’s online. Okay. Okay, how about Annie? Here we go from Overboard. Here we go.
SPEAKER 21 :
Feel better? I don’t belong here. I feel it. Don’t you think I feel it? I can’t do any of these vile things, and I wouldn’t want to. My life is like death. My children are the spawn of hell, and you’re the devil. Oh, God.
SPEAKER 34 :
Baby, we like you.
SPEAKER 17 :
We like you. That was Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn in their prime. And for anyone who has not watched the original Overboard with those two, shame on you. You need to watch it, don’t you think?
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, it’s a good one.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, it’s so funny.
SPEAKER 16 :
Go ahead, John. I’ll do one, and then we’ll go to Mickey. Okay. Because it’s a great movie, and she is a good mom. Helen Hunt, as good as it gets.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, yeah. Right?
SPEAKER 16 :
Right.
SPEAKER 17 :
I did not think of that one. That is a great example.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yes, absolutely. A good movie.
SPEAKER 17 :
By the way, phenomenal acting and great movie.
SPEAKER 16 :
All around, absolutely. All right, Mickey is next. Go ahead, Mickey.
SPEAKER 11 :
Old TV show, My Mother the Car.
SPEAKER 16 :
My Mother the Car. Never heard of it.
SPEAKER 11 :
I never heard of that. My Mother the Car? My Mother the Car. It was funny as… His mom came back as a reincarnated 1930-something car.
SPEAKER 16 :
Really? Charlie says he remembers it, so he’s nodding. He agrees. Well, okay.
SPEAKER 11 :
I like it.
SPEAKER 16 :
I thought I’d throw in a funny one. Good one. All right, Mickey. Thank you. I guess I’ll have to go look it up. I’ve never seen that.
SPEAKER 17 :
Okay. Here’s not a very good mom, because she wasn’t actually a mom. She was a kidnapper. Raising Arizona. Oh, yeah. It’s in my list.
SPEAKER 06 :
My lawless years were behind me. Our child-rearing years lay ahead. But biology conspired to keep us childless.
SPEAKER 02 :
You go right back up there and get me a toddler. I need a baby.
SPEAKER 06 :
At the time, his little plan seemed like the solution to all our problems. And the answer to all our prayers.
SPEAKER 05 :
He’s beautiful. What? Are you kidding? We got us a family here.
SPEAKER 17 :
You go up there, hi, and you get me a baby. They got more than they can handle.
SPEAKER 16 :
That’s hilarious.
SPEAKER 17 :
My gosh. Holly Hunter was great.
SPEAKER 16 :
She is. All right, this one, because it’s in multiples of the same series, but she ended up being the mom in all of them. Beverly D’Angelo in all of the vacation movies.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, she was terrific, wasn’t she?
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, her and Chevy, you know, and all of them. And, yeah, she’s awesome.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, and she had to be the straight man to Chevy, but she did it so well.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, she was awesome.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah. Okay, here we go. Kitty Foreman in That 70s Show.
SPEAKER 13 :
Mr. and Mrs. Foreman, can you settle this for us? If someone you love is kind of depressed, should you shower them with kindness or give them space?
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, now that’s a very good question. And it really takes a lot of living with someone to get it right.
SPEAKER 14 :
That’s true.
SPEAKER 23 :
But you’ll find the thing to do is shower them. What did you say?
SPEAKER 04 :
I said what you said.
SPEAKER 16 :
That’s another one I’ve never watched.
SPEAKER 17 :
That 70s show was actually a pretty good show. It was pretty funny.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah. Imagine Friends, but not as funny.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 17 :
All right, you’re up.
SPEAKER 16 :
Patricia Hodge, The Waltons.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, yeah. Totally classic. Totally classic.
SPEAKER 16 :
Good night, John boy.
SPEAKER 17 :
Now, you never saw the movie, the old John Cusack movie, Better Off Dead, did you? I think I have, yeah. Totally wacko. Well, the mom, who was actually the girl in True Grit, in this she’s the mom, and she’s the worst cook ever, and they have a foreign French student there, and she’s talking about the dinner she’s providing. Okay.
SPEAKER 29 :
Now, in honor of our special guest, I’ve created dinner mon dieu. First, we have… French fries. And French dressing. And French bread. And to drink, ta-da, Peru.
SPEAKER 17 :
Perrier. She’s such an idiot. She was hilarious in that movie Better Off Dead. Her food would literally crawl across the plate. It was great. Okay, you’re up.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, man, there’s so many. Let’s see here. How about, because somebody just mentioned this a moment ago, Katie Segal married with children.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, wonderful. She was hilarious.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yep, and I just got a text message on that one, too.
SPEAKER 17 :
So, Al, you’re up. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 16 :
Did you say Al? Yep, you’re up, Al. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 18 :
Hey, okay, since… Unfortunately, I didn’t have the best mom. I have a nomination for a bad mom movie. Okay. And that would be Mommy Dearest.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, yes. Yeah, that’s on my list. Joan Crawford.
SPEAKER 18 :
Joan Crawford. Yeah, it was so off the wall and extreme. It’s kind of comical, actually.
SPEAKER 16 :
It was off the wall. Wasn’t that the one where no metal hangers? Wasn’t that the one?
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, it was. And Joan Crawford must have loved that role because it was a total departure from anything she had done. And she was magnificent. No metal hangers! Oh my gosh.
SPEAKER 18 :
It was pretty good. It portrayed crazy, you know…
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, yeah. You’re right. Pretty good.
SPEAKER 16 :
You’re right. Well done, Al. Yeah, it’s on my list, Al. Good one. All right, thank you. Thank you, man. Appreciate you. Yep, no, that was on my list.
SPEAKER 17 :
Let’s stick along those lines, and let’s go Kathleen Turner in Serial Mom. I don’t know that one.
SPEAKER 15 :
Is Beverly Sutton just a sweet suburban housewife?
SPEAKER 24 :
I don’t know what it is about today, but I feel great.
SPEAKER 15 :
Or is she? Cereal Mom.
SPEAKER 1 :
Cereal Mom! Cereal Mom!
SPEAKER 15 :
Cool.
SPEAKER 31 :
Is she in a band?
SPEAKER 15 :
Kathleen Turner, Sam Waterston, and Ricky Lake. Cereal Mom.
SPEAKER 17 :
She was a cereal killer who was their mom. Making cookies and stuff like that. Kathleen Turner is a funny actress.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, yeah. No, I agree. She was great. I agree. All right, you’re up. Got to go back to happy days, Marian Ross. Oh, yeah. She was like the ultimate mom of that day.
SPEAKER 17 :
She was. Okay, I got to do one that you’re not going to like, but… The mother of Furiosa in the movie Furiosa. No, I mean, seriously. Really? She was tremendous. And here’s the scene where she gets hung and killed.
SPEAKER 15 :
Tell me. She’s your mother. Perfect. Where are you from? Tell me. Tell me where you came from and we will cease and desist.
SPEAKER 30 :
Furiosa!
SPEAKER 15 :
All you have to do is just point. Point me in the right direction, and I’ll take you home. Don’t look away. We mustn’t look away. You have to.
SPEAKER 17 :
And that’s Chris Hemsworth playing a villain. By the way, he did a great job. That is his voice.
SPEAKER 16 :
You’re right.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yes, he did a great job. He was the crazed villain. I didn’t think the ending was done very well, but… Yeah, it got kind of boring at the end. It did. Oh, you saw Furiosa?
SPEAKER 16 :
Yes, I did watch it, actually.
SPEAKER 17 :
I didn’t know that.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yes, I have.
SPEAKER 17 :
It was a pretty good movie.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 17 :
Not great, but I gave it, I think, three and a half.
SPEAKER 16 :
Decent.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah. All right, you’re up.
SPEAKER 16 :
Let’s see here. Okay, this one I picked mainly, A, because she’s a great actress, has done all sorts of things. Sure. But in this particular situation, she was actually the star of the movie that then was later turned into a TV series, and she was the mom in both, and that would be Connie Britton in Friday Night Lights.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, well done, sir.
SPEAKER 16 :
You got a twofer. She did both. And I don’t think that happens very often, Andy. No, it doesn’t.
SPEAKER 17 :
Okay, I’ll do one that doesn’t happen very often. How about the same actress playing your mother in two different time periods? Lorraine McFly in Back to the Future.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, good one. Yeah.
SPEAKER 17 :
She was great.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah. Had the hots for her son. I watched that. For some odd reason, I don’t know where I watched this. I watched that clip the other day of what you’re talking about.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, she was awesome. She was awesome. You’re up.
SPEAKER 16 :
It was a good clip, by the way. Okay, we’ve got to go back in time again. I don’t know why. Just a lot of these came up this way. Elizabeth Montgomery, Bewitched. Yep. Samantha.
SPEAKER 17 :
I love Samantha. She was wonderful. Okay, here’s one. I won’t play a clip because I have for like two out of the last three weeks. It was too good. Sarah Connor from T2. Terminator 2.
SPEAKER 16 :
Linda Hamilton. What a mom. Yep. You are correct on that one.
SPEAKER 17 :
Every mom should be that protective of their kid.
SPEAKER 16 :
I have one where this is what you do not do to your mom unless they act this way. Okay. And Ramsey in Throw Mama from the Train.
SPEAKER 1 :
Yes.
SPEAKER 16 :
Mrs. Lift.
SPEAKER 17 :
She was wonderful. And oh, was she hilarious. She was so evil. It was terrible. Okay. I got to go with Evelyn. That’s Emily Blunt in A Quiet Place.
SPEAKER 16 :
boy was she spectacular on my list let’s see where i gotta cross it off here andy because i’ve got it on here someplace i’ll find it okay in the meantime let’s go to another sally field movie where it was a stellar performance in lincoln oh yeah she was lincoln’s wife she’s just great isn’t she yep okay scary movie tony collette in hereditary oh i never saw that yeah Hereditary?
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah. Now, you love the actress, right? Toni Collette?
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, she’s terrific. Okay, you’re up.
SPEAKER 16 :
How about Allie Mills in Wonder Years? I always liked that TV show.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, yeah. Yeah. That was a very good TV show. Here’s one that you have not seen, a horror movie called Silent Hill. And Radha Mitchell plays Rose in Silent Hill. And the whole movie is about her trying to get to her daughter in this hellscape that she’s trying to get to her daughter. So there you go.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 17 :
A terrific performance, by the way. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 16 :
Let’s do, because this was a funny show, Tim Allen, Patricia Richardson, Home Improvement. Yes. She was the mom.
SPEAKER 17 :
That’s on my list. She was terrific. Okay, I always have to do this one here. The Alien Queen in Aliens. Come on, she was pro-life.
SPEAKER 16 :
No.
SPEAKER 17 :
Don’t abort my, you know, see what I mean? She was a real activist.
SPEAKER 16 :
You’re right. Very protective. Okay, this one’s going back in time also. Shirley Jones Partridge Family. Oh, yes. She was great.
SPEAKER 17 :
Actually, you know who had a terrific singing voice? Carol Brady from the Brady Bunch.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, that’s on my list, too. She did, actually. You’re right, Andy.
SPEAKER 17 :
She was an opera-trained singer.
SPEAKER 16 :
Florence Henderson. Florence Henderson, yes. I forgot about that. You’re right. Okay, here’s one that she had a great singing voice as well. This is a movie, Cher in Mask. Oh, gosh, what a great performance. Very much so, right? Yes. For being Cher, it was great.
SPEAKER 17 :
That was another case. It’s like Lady Gaga a couple movies ago where you’ve got a singer who comes out and acts so well. You’re like, oh, my gosh, stick with that. She was so incredible.
SPEAKER 16 :
No, you’re right.
SPEAKER 17 :
Okay, Claire Huxtable from The Cosby Show.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay, I’ve got that on my list as well.
SPEAKER 17 :
Felicia Rashad.
SPEAKER 16 :
She was perfect. This is sad because there was a lot of great people that were in that series like her that because of his antics, there’s now no reruns, no nothing. It’s almost like the Cosby show has been wiped from the planet.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, and it was wiped from the planet, obviously, because, look, I don’t blame people, though, because I’m sure people are creeped out just seeing him.
SPEAKER 16 :
I get that.
SPEAKER 17 :
But Felicia Rashad.
SPEAKER 16 :
She was awesome.
SPEAKER 17 :
So there goes the major, that was the major part. She did other roles, but that was the major part of her career, wiped clean from history.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yep. Here’s one you will enjoy, I think. Renee Russo, the Queen of Asgard.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, yes. Right. Nicely done. Very good. Okay, let’s go along those lines. How about Nicole Kidman as Atlanta in Aquaman?
SPEAKER 16 :
That’s a great show, by the way.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, the first one.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I agree with that. Second one, not so good. You’re exactly right. Right. OK, here’s one. And it’s a good movie. Most people don’t know much about it because it just I don’t know. It just never was one of those huge hits that everybody went out and watched. But Allison Janay in The Help. The Help is a great movie.
SPEAKER 17 :
Well done, sir.
SPEAKER 16 :
Well, there you go.
SPEAKER 17 :
How about Catherine O’Hara in Home Alone? No, I don’t have that one.
SPEAKER 16 :
Why?
SPEAKER 17 :
How did I miss that one? Not good parents.
SPEAKER 16 :
No.
SPEAKER 17 :
Well. I mean, they are, but you know what I mean.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, they lost a kid. Oh, well, you know.
SPEAKER 17 :
A little bit of, yeah. Might want to keep an eye on that.
SPEAKER 16 :
Go ahead. All right. Constance Wu in Fresh Off the Boat.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, good. Good. Okay, here’s one that you have not seen a horror movie that’s actually, I believe, Australian. Amelia from The Babadook.
SPEAKER 16 :
No, I have not seen that.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, it’s very scary, and it’s all about her trying to protect her child. So there you go.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, yeah, no, I have not seen that one. Okay. Okay, here’s one that I, for some odd reason, I don’t know how I missed this all those years ago. Angelina Jolie in The Changeling.
SPEAKER 17 :
Wow, I don’t remember.
SPEAKER 16 :
She was very young at that point in time, right, Charlie? Probably one of her first roles, maybe. I have to go back and look, but probably one of the first major things she did.
SPEAKER 17 :
I think she’s one of the most underrated actresses because she was so breathtakingly beautiful that people didn’t see what she could do with the craft. How about Debbie Reynolds in Mother?
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, that’s a good one. Yeah. And again, I’ve got to type it out. Not on my list. She was funny. A lot of these I have on my list, but some of these, Andy, you’re doing really well.
SPEAKER 17 :
I mean, that’s not a mother you’d want.
SPEAKER 16 :
You mentioned this movie a couple of weeks ago, but I’ve got to do it again. Sandra Bullock in Blindside.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, yeah. I mean, that’s classic. Louise Jefferson from The Jefferson.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, that’s on my list. Putting up with George Weezy. Maria Gibbs. Marla Gibbs. Did I say? Huh? Marla Gibbs. Marla Gibbs. Marla, sorry, you’re right. Sorry, my contacts weren’t focused very well. You’re right. Sorry, Charlie. Marla, you’re correct. How about going along those same lines about the same time? Esther, is it Roley or Raleigh good times?
SPEAKER 17 :
She was wonderful. She was so good.
SPEAKER 16 :
It was fun, too.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, it really was. Okay, we’ve got to go with Morticia Adams from the Adams family.
SPEAKER 16 :
I didn’t put that on my list because I knew you would.
SPEAKER 17 :
That’s classic. Come on.
SPEAKER 16 :
It was. Okay, got to do this one. Wilma Flintstone. I guess you could say Betty Rubble as well on the Flintstones.
SPEAKER 17 :
Well, and then let’s stay in the same cartoon world. Jane, his wife.
SPEAKER 16 :
Jetsons. Jetsons. Yeah, okay. Got to do that one as well. Let’s see here. How about, okay. There’s a lot of them, but I just picked one. Deidre Hall, Days of Our Lives. But there was a lot of moms in those soaps.
SPEAKER 17 :
I never watched soaps.
SPEAKER 16 :
I didn’t either.
SPEAKER 17 :
But she was actually a very big star.
SPEAKER 16 :
But I had family members that did. Deidre Hall was a big star, though. Okay, time real quick. Yeah, go ahead. Charlie, when did soaps die? When other things started to come along TV-wise, evenings or something, or what? Oh, Charlie says the talk show is like The View and all of that sort of supplanted, pushed out the soaps. I think that makes sense. Okay. Okay.
SPEAKER 17 :
How about, this is a huge one, Elastigirl from The Incredibles. Oh, that’s a good one, Andy. She was wonderful. That was Holly Hunter, wasn’t it?
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah. Yeah, that’s right. No, you’re right. Exactly. How about Judith Light in Who’s the Boss?
SPEAKER 1 :
Oh, good one.
SPEAKER 16 :
Another old one.
SPEAKER 17 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 16 :
Patricia Clarkson from Easy A. Oh, I was going to put that on my list and I did not. So that is a good one, Andy. We’ll take it. Let’s do Jane Seymour, Somewhere in Time.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, I totally didn’t think of that one. Okay. Peg Boggs. That’s the character from Edward Scissorhands. Yeah. And she was very, very defensive of him. A Wonderful Mother.
SPEAKER 16 :
Mandy Moore in A Walk to Remember.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, I never saw it.
SPEAKER 16 :
It’s an old one.
SPEAKER 17 :
Okay. Frances O’Connor as the mom in AI.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, you know what? I don’t know if I ever.
SPEAKER 17 :
Not a great mom. Okay.
SPEAKER 16 :
I don’t know if I ever saw that one.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah. A very sad story she neglected. She could not bond to him.
SPEAKER 16 :
Here’s one. Susan Sarandon in Stepmom. Susan Sarandon and Stepmom.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, yeah. That’s right. That’s right. Okay. Flo Evans. Florida Evans in Good Times.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, that’s on my list, too.
SPEAKER 17 :
She had to deal with JJ. She was great.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah. He made her life really tough. I’ll make sure I say this last name correctly. Mary Steenburgen or Steenburgen. Steenburgen. Steenburgen. Stepbrothers.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, yeah. Joyce Byers’ Stranger Things.
SPEAKER 16 :
That’s on my list.
SPEAKER 17 :
That’s Winona Ryder.
SPEAKER 16 :
I’m surprised Andy hasn’t said this one yet because of the fact he gave this actually a pretty decent review. Keri Russell in Cocaine Bear.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, I have failed you.
SPEAKER 16 :
I figured you would have mentioned that one.
SPEAKER 17 :
Okay, well, we’ve got to go to a real classic here. Renee Zellweger in Jerry Maguire.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, show me the money. Or you get me, right?
SPEAKER 17 :
Well, yeah, but she didn’t say that.
SPEAKER 16 :
Or did she say you get me? She said the you get me part, yeah. You had me at hello. You get me.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay, I’m sure I’m going to butcher this last name as well because I don’t know these old actresses. Karen, is it Grassl, Little House on the Prairie? Am I saying that right, Charlie? He doesn’t know. She was great, though.
SPEAKER 17 :
Okay, Violet Crowley, the character in Downton Abbey.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, yeah. Good one, Andy.
SPEAKER 17 :
I mean… You know, more of a matriarch than just a mom. But she was a mom. Okay.
SPEAKER 16 :
No, that was a great show, by the way. Great series.
SPEAKER 17 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 16 :
I’m nearly out. I’m nearly out. I’ve got one. Melinda Dillon in Christmas Story. She was the mom of the little boy.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, okay. Okay. Here’s a classic. Laura Petri in The Dick Van Dyke Show.
SPEAKER 16 :
Mary Tyler Moore. I hated her.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, my gosh. What a talent, though. She was a wonderful dancer. Just… A wonderful talent. She can sing, she can dance, she can act.
SPEAKER 16 :
I’m going to be in trouble for saying this. That is one actress I could not stand watching.
SPEAKER 17 :
Mary Tyler Moore?
SPEAKER 16 :
She cried all the stinking time.
SPEAKER 17 :
She didn’t cry all the time.
SPEAKER 16 :
All the time. She was crying.
SPEAKER 17 :
No, she was funny.
SPEAKER 16 :
She was awful.
SPEAKER 17 :
She was comedic. She was a great dancer. Have you ever seen her do some of her dance scenes?
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, but she cried all the time. Oh, she did not. Literally cried all the time. She did not. Charlie, am I right? Did she cry a lot?
SPEAKER 17 :
She was a…
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, thank you, Charlie.
SPEAKER 17 :
She was an athletic dancer. She was fantastic. Mary Tyler Moore was a great talent. You are not an American.
SPEAKER 16 :
I’m going to squeeze three moms in, in one movie. All right. Kristen Bell, Mila Kunis, and Katherine Hahn in Bad Moms.
SPEAKER 1 :
Bad Moms, okay.
SPEAKER 16 :
Which they turned out to actually be good moms.
SPEAKER 17 :
Well, how about the bride who lost her kid? Uma Thurman as the bride in Kill Bill.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh. Okay. Good one. I’ll do one more, then we’ll take a break. Yeah. Bonnie Franklin in One Day at a Time.
SPEAKER 17 :
Oh, she was wonderful.
SPEAKER 16 :
That was a good show. Well, I don’t know if that’s a good show. It was a cute show. Let’s put it that way. It was one of those that I think you watched because it was on.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 16 :
It wasn’t great, but it was good.
SPEAKER 17 :
It was not great.
SPEAKER 16 :
It was like out of a, you know, in your rankings from, you know, it was like a two and a half. I would agree. Out of a five, it was a two and a half. All right, we’ll be back here in a moment.
