Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Forty fifteen hours ago, DC via James Gunn, who's the
president of Warner Brothers in DC and everything which is
going to come out on Max seemingly in the next
calendar year. Fifteen hours ago they dropped the new teaser
trailer for Superman and it's also like subtitled Superman Legacy,
(00:26):
which is coming out July eleventh, twenty twenty five. In
those fifteen hours, the trailer just on DC's YouTube channel
has more than twenty million views. It has been well
received pretty much across the board. We know that Superman
is one of those iconic legacy characters that everyone knows about.
(00:48):
You really don't have to explain you say Superman. Everyone
has a point of reference, either from comic books, from
television shows, from movies. You may be only twenty five
years old and grew up with the Zack Snyder Henry
Cavill Superman, or you're a little bit older like me
and you remember Christopher Reeve. Or if you're older than me,
like Mark Ronner, you remember George rans Superman. But you
(01:12):
have a reference point. No one needs an explainer. Everyone
is waiting on this movie, and I think everyone who
is a fan of movies wants this movie to be right.
In other words, they say, get it right the spirit
and essence of the character. Twala, you know more about
this subject than I do, and you've been collecting comics
(01:33):
for the past forty five years.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
This trailer did every single thing that it was supposed
to it. Let us know the tone of the story
that James Gunn is telling it. Let us know that
this is a return to the comics. This is a
return to a character that every last one of us
when we were kids. I don't care if you're a
(01:58):
boy or girl, you put on a towel and you
ran around your house and your underwear because you believed
you could fly. Superman is the quintessential superhero. And I
damn near shed a tear when he was in the
snow and he whistled for Crypto and he said, take
(02:18):
me home, Crypto, Crypto, the super doll. I damn near
shed a tear. I knew that this is the film
that it's meant to be. When the most heroic thing
you see Superman doing in this trailer is saving a
little girl from just mass destruction. He shields her with
his body. I said, this is the heart of what
(02:39):
Superman is about. Light hearted, good natured, comic book superhero.
This is why they returned to the trunks. This is
why because James Gunn said, I am a comic book fan.
David Cornswick, he is a comic book fan. Everyone involved
in what we're doing now we are comic book pece people.
(03:00):
You need to know that this universe I'm creating is
a comic book universe. It doesn't have to be set
in the real world, but we can also include real
world issues as the comics did from the history of
comic books.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
So they're talking about stuff which is going on in
our world right now. And I know some people want
to say, well, I don't want another woke movie. How
would you respond to that?
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Then comic books and the like and all of nerdom
isn't for you. If you want to brood and go
and watch the absolute breakdown of someone's mental health and
in Joker filio dump, go ahead. If that's if that's
your world, good for you.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
If you need something more gritty like the Penguinn and
you want some mob style violence, that's for you too,
because guess what you learn when you grow up collecting
comic books. The world of comic books is for everyone.
There are stories for everyone. But this story right here,
this story is about a character that stood for truth
(04:10):
and justice and saving the world, not saving America, saving
the world.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Well, different iterations. They said truth, justice in the American way.
Some people, I'm being serious, Some people look upon Superman
as just a savior for America and quote unquote, I say,
quote unquote American ideals, and they don't know the history
of the character and how like Superman, there was actually
(04:40):
a Superman and a BLM episode. There's a comic there
was a Superman versus KKK. You know, Superman has always
dealt with issues of the day, not just recently but historically.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
They actually had taken the American way out of of
the line there, because Superman stands for the world. Also,
how can Superman be, to their own recognition from another
planet and say the American way Superman has adopted planet Earth.
(05:17):
Superman did not adopt Kansas. He did not adopt Kansas.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
Okay, he's an immigrant taking other people jobs undocumented. He
took somebody's job by becoming Superman. And that's probably something
that they will force his documents to become a reporter. Yeah,
all of the fake social Security number. Next he'll be
hooking up with Lois and having an anchor. Baby. You're
(05:45):
not wrong, You're not wrong. Let's get back to the trailer,
because there's some exciting stuff in this, including other characters
from the DC universe that we've never seen in a
movie that I'm aware of. They've got Metamorpho, the Element
Man in there, and I never thought my lifetime we
were going to see a decent live action film Metamorpho
because he's one of the sillier characters. And yet I've
(06:07):
got plenty of Metamorpho comics. Yes, mister terrifict girl, Guy Gardner,
Green Lantern's tough for just a second there on, Guy Gardner,
will you did you nearly? I think you and I
both got emotional at the crypto scene? Did you also nearly?
Laugh and wake everybody else in the house up at
the Guy Gardner a glimpse.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
I love the look because the look is so comic. Actor,
I said, you soobs, you did it? You did it.
I couldn't believe watching this. And here's the best thing
about it, and you touched on this mo This is
not an origin film for Superman, James Gunners said, this
is an origin story for the DC Universe. Everything that
(06:51):
happens in the DC Universe that me and Peter Softron
are building starts in this film. You will see all
the characters that we are planning to introduce, big and small,
whether they seen in easter eggs, in actual scenes where
they're interacting with Superman, or implicit mentions. You're going to
see everything here. And this is the tone that we
are setting with these films. We want you to step
(07:13):
out of reality and step into a comic book happening
on screen with stories that will grip you. And if
you think James gunn can't grip you with a superhero story,
try not to shed a tear in Guardians of the
Galaxy Volume three, Try not.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
I dare you. All three of them are good.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
He's earned his street cred making a superhero film.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
I wonder now, I said earlier, this is probably going
to be the biggest movie of the year. It's going
to have the most anticipation in front of it. But
I wonder how big of a hit it's going to be.
And I mean that in a good way. I think
the runway is out there for it. Yeah, there's some
Marvel movies coming out of which I think will also
do well. But this is one of those movies where
(07:57):
if the trailers roll out correctly as far as not
showing too much maintaining interests, this is one of those
one point five billion dollar movies Potato projects, Easy easy.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
This stands to write the ship that was sinking previously
with DC. DC could not get a hit to save
their lives. They have some mid films, most all of
their films are mid to terrible. I enjoyed Black Adam,
but it wasn't a box office hit by any means.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
I loved The Suicide Squad.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Because James Gunn's treatment of it was so good, but
people by that point were like, if it's got DC
stink on it, I'm not going.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
To go watch it. Yes, both of them, I mean
both of those.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
The entire Batman versus Superman, to Superman to the Justice League,
of whatever the hell you guys are doing, y'all spak
all those things.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
It was just bad, too bad to back hold that thought.
Let's come back and finish up this conversation. And also
talk about what Disney did in twenty twenty five. For
all the criticism that Disney received about its supposed programming
and casting decisions, well, Disney was the only studio to
hit two billion dollars at the domestic box office, so
(09:13):
evidently it was doing something right that every other studio
was doing wrong. Take that however you want.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on Demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Last segment, we were talking about the new trailer which
dropped for Superman, which I think, and I'm gonna call
my shot now, will be the biggest movie of twenty
twenty five. It's there for the taking. Unless Superman does
not deliver, it will be the biggest movie of twenty
twenty five, if only because old young does not matter
(09:46):
your background. Y'all know Superman, and everyone I think will
buy into a good Superman movie period. It's not even
thought of in terms of perception as a comic book movie,
even though it is. People may think of Superman because
of George Reeves or Christopher Reeve, having nothing to do
with comic book authenticity or accuracy. It's an iconic character
(10:11):
in America and a good movie with that character will
do well. And I think it's the right time and
we're right for a really good Superman movie for this era.
Oh and in the movie they have one of Christopher
Reeve's sons. Really yep, one of his sons is in
the movie. It's playing a news reporter. I don't know
how large of a piece, but you know, with James
(10:33):
Gunn there will be all sorts of Easter egg. So
I was listening listening to the trailer and I can
hear the music as a light motif of the John
Williams soundtrack theme two Christopher leeve Reeve's Superman in nineteen
seventy eight.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
As another music person. You have to love that story.
When we were kids, we didn't have much besides like
the let me backtrack here generally, and we were that age.
Scores to movies came out on the records well before
the movie, and that's all we had, and so we
would listen to those things until we practically wore out
the record. And that John Williams Superman score is one
(11:12):
of the most beautiful things he's ever done. It's better
than Star Wars by a lot. I'm being serious, by
a lot.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
As far as just iconic themes, and we used to
always use it as an intro to our nerd not
ned but or comic con the cop broadcast because everyone
recognized it and bought into it. I'm excited in a
few movies that I get, I mean genuinely excited for
because I was a huge fan of the Christopher Reeves
Superman's up until Superman four.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
He was a perfect Superman and that doesn't take anything
away from George Reeves. And if you go down the
list and look at all of them, like even the
Brandon Rouths, Superman had his strong points like this, the
scene in that movie, which not a great movie, not
a great lex Luthor kind of a show tunes.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
The Superman wasn't bad, the movie was bad.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
The scene where he brings down the airplane in that
movie nearly made me cry back at in the day
because special effects finally caught up with the character.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
And the stopping the criminals on the rooftop with it
with the gatling gun.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
With the bullets of the eyeball. Yes, yes, it had
its moments. It just could not live up to its predecessor,
even though pretty much it was a sequel to the
Richard Donner Superman. Yes, absolutely, absolutely it is. It was
considered a sequel, but it wasn't a sequel, if that
makes any sense.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
With the worst lowest lane of all time. Oh leave
her alone? Okay, Okay. I am hopeful about this one
because I think James Gunn gets it and he has
gotten himself into a position where he probably doesn't have
to take a lot of notes from people.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
No, it's he, it's it's his ship, and if it
doesn't do spectacularly, he will get all the blame because
it's not like he can say, well, I wanted this,
but the but the studio wanted that. No, he will
have final decision. What we will see will be the
director's cut. You could say, well, also before we go
to break, gotta let you know this. Disney has been
(13:09):
a lightning rod for a lot of people. It's been
a part of political controversy with its fight with Rohnda
Stantis in Florida where it don't say gay Bill. There
has been a lot of perceived politics surrounding Disney, and
a common refrain you would hear from people is well,
you know, go broke, and it was used most often
(13:31):
in reference to Disney as far as it's casting choices
movie storylines. We talked yesterday about Pixar removing the transgender
storyline from its upcoming series one of its upcoming series.
Despite all that, Disney as a studio is doing just
fine financially, actually better than any other movie studio out
(13:53):
there in the world. It's the only studio to hit
two billion dollars in revenue at the domestic box office
this year. I'm talking about inside Out, and this is
just a domestic now. Inside Out grows six hundred and
fifty three million. You had the highest grossing R rated
movie of all time, Deadpool and Wolverine six hundred and
(14:14):
thirty seven million, and Muana two as of right now
is three hundred and forty two million, and Climbing. Oh
and by the way, Mafossa comes out tomorrow or it's
actually out now in previews, and that's set to do
at least fifty million this weekend. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
Yeah, And that's not counting all the other things that
they own, i e. The Aliens movie that just came out,
which it still did well enough domestically. So with all
the stuff that came out through twenty Sentry, Fox and
all that they're really killing the game.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Yeah, people don't think understand that Disney is a global company.
It's not just speaking to a specific political vent in
a Porsch of America. If you look at Disney Plus subscriptions,
America is not the largest country as far as Disney
Plus subscriptions. It is a worldwide company speaking to a
(15:11):
worldwide audience. And when they're making their programming decisions or
their movie decisions, it's not just about what's happening in
Flyover Country here in America. It's just it's global business.
It's not an American business. It's more than just a
quote unquote multinational corporation. And the receipts in the end
(15:31):
say it all the only studio to hit two billion
dollars at the domestic box office. So no, going forward,
you personally politically may not like the direction of Disney
or the movies that may put out, like the Marvels
or something like that. Or you may not like the
casting choices, like a changing the race of Perry White.
(15:53):
That's what's going to be in this upcoming Superman. Yeah,
but it's going to But I mean, I'm saying now
you listen to white already black from the last couple movies. Yes,
I'm just saying, just for example, people may not like that,
but I'm saying these companies are making the decision because
they're speaking to a larger audience than just a small
(16:14):
portion of America. They're speaking to the world. It is
Later with Mokelly when we come back, and speaking of Disney, well,
you'll have your chance to win a family four pack
to Disney on Ice, Magic and the Stars. That's next,
So don't go anywhere.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
Let me tell you about fifty six of your favorite
Disney stars who will shine brightly in Disney on Ice
as it presents Magic in the Stars, featuring the most
Disney characters in one show with the all star cast
including Mirabel Woody and Buzz, Tiana Mohanna and more, highlighted
by the on Ice debuts of the Frozen two story
(16:57):
plus Riyah from Riya and the Last Dragon. In fact,
we're going to give away a family four pack tonight
to opening Night at the Long Beach Arena, which is Thursday,
January two at seven pm. Joe Jacobson, performance director for
Disney on Ice, joins me now on the show, Joe,
nice to talk to you. How you doing, sir, I'm
doing great. How are you doing? I'm doing well. I
(17:19):
love moments just like these, especially during the holidays. I
don't know how you do it, though, Joe. You have
the weight of the brand, the hopes of children, the
history of the iconic movies that you have to live
up to. Do you ever think or worry about that
when it comes to crafting a show which meets these
lofty expectations.
Speaker 5 (17:39):
Oh? Absolutely. Everyone here on our production really respects and
appreciates how Disney touches so many individuals' lives. Pretty Much
anyone you speak to can think back and have a
connection with a Disney character, and that kind of connection
is really what drives our show forward and is the
(18:00):
inspiration for everything we do out on the Ice. So
we treat it with the utmost respect, and we love
bringing these characters to life on the ice for you guys,
through really dynamic athleticism or really fun choreography and just
great comedy moments throughout the entire show. We really see
that connection with the audience.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Something else that I think about the Disney properties are
different today than when I grew up or you grew up.
There are three D animation movies. Now they're live action movies.
Now they are incorporated into theme parks. And what I
mean by that is people who come to Disney on Ice,
I would argue, are far more knowledgeable, far more invested
(18:41):
than maybe thirty years ago. Would you agree?
Speaker 5 (18:44):
I would agree, And I think that just helps support
people's connection with the characters themselves. The more that people
are exposed to these characters, it develops some more well rounded,
well more well rounded character, and we have to find
more and more creative and exciting ways to bring all
(19:05):
of that action and all of that dynamics or.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
All those dynamics to life.
Speaker 5 (19:11):
So through that we do a lot of things with
involving aerial apparatuses. Riya in the Last Dragon is one
of our new segments here on the show, and she
does a really cool act where she's flying twenty thirty
feet above the ice from a acro pole, where she's
(19:33):
doing a lot of really cool martial arts inspired type moves,
and it just showcases the athleticism some other fun ways
that we're really bringing that to life and just kind
of updating our show to meet the updates of Disney
is we have a really fun ramp act in the
Cave of Wonders during the Aladdin segment. That's really bringing
(19:55):
a lot of more skate park inspired athleticism and things
like that to the show. So you can always expect
to find high quality figure skating at a Disney on
Ice show, but what you get here is also a
lot of really cool a big variety of acts that
are just super exciting and help tell the story in
(20:15):
an effective way.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
I'm speaking with Joe Jacobson, performance director for Disney on Ice,
and Joe, your job title interests me and intrigues me.
I know that no two audiences are alike, No two
performances are like, No two venues are like. What is
your night usually like when you have these performances? I mean,
(20:37):
I know you are an active participant in everything that's
going on, but just walk me through what some of
your duties may be before a show, During a show.
Speaker 5 (20:46):
Well, let's take today, for example, we're getting ready to
open here at Cryptocrypto dot Com arena. I'm used to
calling at Staples just because I grew up in the
area exactly, But yeah, we're getting ready to open up here,
and it never just is the night for somebody in
my position. I usually get here quite early in the
(21:08):
morning and stay through until well after the show ends
at night. And part of that is just because we
have such a large show featuring over fifty five Disney characters.
That means we have a very large cast. We have
a really big crew that's doing everything they can to
help make this a magical experience for families. So we
(21:29):
usually do a whole lot of rehearsing leading into that time,
making sure all the lighting and the costumes look just right,
all the other aspects beyond just the skating, and then
we also give our performers a chance to warm up,
and I go out there and I touch base with
them to make sure that they're consistently elevating their performance
to the highest level possible.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
What's it like, seeing especially children's faces light up.
Speaker 5 (21:54):
Oh, it's one of the things that brings me the
most joy from my job, one thing that I never
really got to experience much as a performer. Sure, you
can see that face to face connection because it is
live entertainment and you get the live feedback when you're
out on the Ice, But as the director, I'm actually
kind of more out in the audience day to day,
(22:16):
and oftentimes I have headsets on, so I kind of
stand out a little bit. And we get a lot
of feedback from families, and it always blows my mind
just how much these shows can impact people and how
it can bring families together, especially around the holiday season.
It's a time where people are really looking for that
connection with their loved ones, and our show is a
(22:38):
great way of kind of helping foster that.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Very quickly, since you mentioned families, what are the age
ranges that you're seeing. I'm quite sure you're seeing grandparents
and grand children. What else can you tell me about
just the dynamics of the people who are in attendance.
Speaker 5 (22:55):
Well, I think a lot of times Disney on Ice
has this People go into it if they haven't ever
been to a Disney on Ice show, expecting that it's
going to be geared for younger girls and things like that.
But what we're finding is that it really these characters
connect with everybody, and whether it's a young family out
(23:15):
experiencing a group outing. We have a lot of people
who come here on dates. We have people who are
just hardcore figure skating fans and they enjoy seeing that.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Aspect of the show.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
So it's a really wide range. Our audience touches a
whole lot of people, and I think as people experience it,
there really is something for everyone.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
Well, Joe Jacobson, you're getting ready to touch for more
people because, as I said in my introduction, we're giving
away a family four pack to Thursday's performance January two,
at the Long Beach Arena at seven pm. To that end,
I need a number from you, Joe Jacobson, performance director
for Disney on Ice, between one and ten.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Let's go eight.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
If you're number eight, you and three members of your
family or friends will be going to see Disney on Ice.
It's something you don't want to miss. Disney on Ice
presents Magic in the Stars January second, twenty twenty five
at the Long Beach Arena at seven pm. Caller number eight.
I would like to thank my guest Joe Jacobson, who
(24:20):
is the performance director for Disney on Ice. Joe, thank
you so much for what you do and the magic
that you helped bring the children at adults nationwide and beyond.
Thank you for coming on tonight.
Speaker 5 (24:31):
Oh thanks for having me and I can't wait to
see the winners of the contest at the show.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Well make sure that we make that happen.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
And I enjoy, always enjoy giving away prizes to cool events.
We just gave away a family four pack to Disney
on Ice for January second at the Long Beach Arena Tuala.
Do we have a winner? We absolutely do.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
Congrasts atulations are in order to mister Doug Stags of
Lake Elsinore.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
It's a little bit of a drive. He can do it, Okay,
he will do it because he wants to see it.
He was so excited.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
I don't know if it was his wife in his
car in the car with.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Him, but they were through the moon.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Oh good, I'd love to hear that. Listening to the
whole conversation too. Longtime fan loves the show.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
I really do appreciate that, and that's something we're going
to be doing even more. In twenty twenty five, we
gave away a nice number of gifts. In twenty twenty three,
we gave them away even more. In twenty twenty four,
we're going to up the ante in twenty twenty five.
I guarantee it, and speak of speaking of giveaways tomorrow
(25:44):
on name that movie call Classic. It's a blowout, basically,
end of the year game. Everything must go. Our remaining
t shirts, our remaining keychains, our remaining coffee mugs, We're
giving them all away tomorrow night. That said, we still
need first time callers. There's no point in giving away
(26:06):
all these cool prizes to people who already have won
or some or all of those things. So we want
to make sure tomorrow for our end of the year
holiday edition. We're not doing it for New Year's Eve
or whenever it is. This will be the last game
of the year. We want to make sure that we're
giving away these prizes to first time callers. People who
(26:27):
haven't won anything, may have been reticent to call in,
weren't so sure about playing the game. Well, this is
your opportunity. Everything must go. Of course, it will be
holiday themed, I can tell you right now. Either they
will be explicitly Christmas or holiday movies, or there will
be a Christmas slash holiday dinner scene in it. Okay,
(26:55):
so that's all I'll tell you. I have not even
pulled the movies yet, but I do know it'll be
one or the other, a blatant Christmas movie, holiday movie,
or a movie which just happens to have a Christmas
scene in it. And I have some I have a
short list in my mind of that which I'm gonna get.
(27:18):
Those can be tough. Oh it's only tough for me.
It's gonna be impossible for them.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
Okay, okay, because most of us know all the top
classic holiday films. So you're gonna have to dig and
find some scenes.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
Oh you may not know, Yes I will. I will.
So if you just assume it's going to be a
Christmas movie, you might make it more difficult for yourself
than it needs to be. It just may be a
scene that has a holiday backdrop in a given movie.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
You know, every single Friday, you know, when I'm overtaking
listener calls and things like that, I'm listening to what
people are saying. I never look at the folder because
I could. I could look at the folder and I
could find out what the movies are, but I never
ever do. I'm always sitting out there listening and challenging myself.
And last week there were a lot of films that
(28:14):
I know, but I didn't know the cut. I was
shocked with some of the contest callers who called in
first time callers who actually got those dumps out there, like, Man,
I work here, I'm next door, and I don't know
these movies.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
I'm telling you, last week arguably was the best group
of callers We've ever had, best group of callers, energy,
spirit of playing the game success as far as guessing
the movie with the least amount of help. Arguably the
best group of callers. So tomorrow you'll be judged against
that group. And again I'll say it tomorrow. Of course,
(28:50):
we want first time callers. We want to make sure
that people who get these last best gifts are people
who've not played the game before, not won a prize before,
don't have anything to show it show for it, but
are obviously fans and supporters of the show. We give
away the most T shirts by far, We give away
the most gifts by far. This is our way of
(29:10):
saying thank you to the many and varied listeners who
have supported us over the course of this year and
previous years. In fact, I might even have a shirt
for Mark Ronner. At some point he keeps asking for
one but we keep forgetting to give it to him.
Oh you know, we got to give Mark Mark. Here's
what we'll give you.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
Okay, here, we'll give you yes, and we may be
able to give you fifteen of them.
Speaker 4 (29:31):
Oh yeah, we have the official later with mo Kelly diapers,
yet we need to have some pit diapers for twenty
twenty five. We'll get the pit diapers and we'll get
them branded with most face on the crotch.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
We'll keep do that the other side, other side, on
the other side. Okay, that's that's fine. But we're going
to give you at least twenty the mo Kelly show
comic con shirts. They're sex you can wear them as nightgowns.
Twenty I'll give you twenty of those shirts. You might
have eighteen friends.
Speaker 4 (30:00):
One would be good. I'm sure they're very absorbent. We've
got like, no, we have enough.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
We have a lot that we have no use for,
so we thought we'd give them to you. You know
that I am not goodwill, right, No goodwill would actually
give them to someone else. We want you to have these.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
You just want me to like go through one a
day for twenty days.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
Why no shirts? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (30:21):
Yeah, boy, if only I still had cats.

You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Forty fifteen hours ago, DC via James Gunn, who's the
president of Warner Brothers in DC and everything which is
going to come out on Max seemingly in the next
calendar year. Fifteen hours ago they dropped the new teaser
trailer for Superman and it's also like subtitled Superman Legacy,
(00:26):
which is coming out July eleventh, twenty twenty five. In
those fifteen hours, the trailer just on DC's YouTube channel
has more than twenty million views. It has been well
received pretty much across the board. We know that Superman
is one of those iconic legacy characters that everyone knows about.
(00:48):
You really don't have to explain you say Superman. Everyone
has a point of reference, either from comic books, from
television shows, from movies. You may be only twenty five
years old and grew up with the Zack Snyder Henry
Cavill Superman, or you're a little bit older like me
and you remember Christopher Reeve. Or if you're older than me,
like Mark Ronner, you remember George rans Superman. But you
(01:12):
have a reference point. No one needs an explainer. Everyone
is waiting on this movie, and I think everyone who
is a fan of movies wants this movie to be right.
In other words, they say, get it right the spirit
and essence of the character. Twala, you know more about
this subject than I do, and you've been collecting comics
(01:33):
for the past forty five years.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
This trailer did every single thing that it was supposed
to it. Let us know the tone of the story
that James Gunn is telling it. Let us know that
this is a return to the comics. This is a
return to a character that every last one of us
when we were kids. I don't care if you're a
(01:58):
boy or girl, you put on a towel and you
ran around your house and your underwear because you believed
you could fly. Superman is the quintessential superhero. And I
damn near shed a tear when he was in the
snow and he whistled for Crypto and he said, take
(02:18):
me home, Crypto, Crypto, the super doll. I damn near
shed a tear. I knew that this is the film
that it's meant to be. When the most heroic thing
you see Superman doing in this trailer is saving a
little girl from just mass destruction. He shields her with
his body. I said, this is the heart of what
(02:39):
Superman is about. Light hearted, good natured, comic book superhero.
This is why they returned to the trunks. This is
why because James Gunn said, I am a comic book fan.
David Cornswick, he is a comic book fan. Everyone involved
in what we're doing now we are comic book pece people.
(03:00):
You need to know that this universe I'm creating is
a comic book universe. It doesn't have to be set
in the real world, but we can also include real
world issues as the comics did from the history of
comic books.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
So they're talking about stuff which is going on in
our world right now. And I know some people want
to say, well, I don't want another woke movie. How
would you respond to that?
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Then comic books and the like and all of nerdom
isn't for you. If you want to brood and go
and watch the absolute breakdown of someone's mental health and
in Joker filio dump, go ahead. If that's if that's
your world, good for you.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
If you need something more gritty like the Penguinn and
you want some mob style violence, that's for you too,
because guess what you learn when you grow up collecting
comic books. The world of comic books is for everyone.
There are stories for everyone. But this story right here,
this story is about a character that stood for truth
(04:10):
and justice and saving the world, not saving America, saving
the world.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Well, different iterations. They said truth, justice in the American way.
Some people, I'm being serious, Some people look upon Superman
as just a savior for America and quote unquote, I say,
quote unquote American ideals, and they don't know the history
of the character and how like Superman, there was actually
(04:40):
a Superman and a BLM episode. There's a comic there
was a Superman versus KKK. You know, Superman has always
dealt with issues of the day, not just recently but historically.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
They actually had taken the American way out of of
the line there, because Superman stands for the world. Also,
how can Superman be, to their own recognition from another
planet and say the American way Superman has adopted planet Earth.
(05:17):
Superman did not adopt Kansas. He did not adopt Kansas.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
Okay, he's an immigrant taking other people jobs undocumented. He
took somebody's job by becoming Superman. And that's probably something
that they will force his documents to become a reporter. Yeah,
all of the fake social Security number. Next he'll be
hooking up with Lois and having an anchor. Baby. You're
(05:45):
not wrong, You're not wrong. Let's get back to the trailer,
because there's some exciting stuff in this, including other characters
from the DC universe that we've never seen in a
movie that I'm aware of. They've got Metamorpho, the Element
Man in there, and I never thought my lifetime we
were going to see a decent live action film Metamorpho
because he's one of the sillier characters. And yet I've
(06:07):
got plenty of Metamorpho comics. Yes, mister terrifict girl, Guy Gardner,
Green Lantern's tough for just a second there on, Guy Gardner,
will you did you nearly? I think you and I
both got emotional at the crypto scene? Did you also nearly?
Laugh and wake everybody else in the house up at
the Guy Gardner a glimpse.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
I love the look because the look is so comic. Actor,
I said, you soobs, you did it? You did it.
I couldn't believe watching this. And here's the best thing
about it, and you touched on this mo This is
not an origin film for Superman, James Gunners said, this
is an origin story for the DC Universe. Everything that
(06:51):
happens in the DC Universe that me and Peter Softron
are building starts in this film. You will see all
the characters that we are planning to introduce, big and small,
whether they seen in easter eggs, in actual scenes where
they're interacting with Superman, or implicit mentions. You're going to
see everything here. And this is the tone that we
are setting with these films. We want you to step
(07:13):
out of reality and step into a comic book happening
on screen with stories that will grip you. And if
you think James gunn can't grip you with a superhero story,
try not to shed a tear in Guardians of the
Galaxy Volume three, Try not.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
I dare you. All three of them are good.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
He's earned his street cred making a superhero film.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
I wonder now, I said earlier, this is probably going
to be the biggest movie of the year. It's going
to have the most anticipation in front of it. But
I wonder how big of a hit it's going to be.
And I mean that in a good way. I think
the runway is out there for it. Yeah, there's some
Marvel movies coming out of which I think will also
do well. But this is one of those movies where
(07:57):
if the trailers roll out correctly as far as not
showing too much maintaining interests, this is one of those
one point five billion dollar movies Potato projects, Easy easy.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
This stands to write the ship that was sinking previously
with DC. DC could not get a hit to save
their lives. They have some mid films, most all of
their films are mid to terrible. I enjoyed Black Adam,
but it wasn't a box office hit by any means.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
I loved The Suicide Squad.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Because James Gunn's treatment of it was so good, but
people by that point were like, if it's got DC
stink on it, I'm not going.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
To go watch it. Yes, both of them, I mean
both of those.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
The entire Batman versus Superman, to Superman to the Justice League,
of whatever the hell you guys are doing, y'all spak
all those things.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
It was just bad, too bad to back hold that thought.
Let's come back and finish up this conversation. And also
talk about what Disney did in twenty twenty five. For
all the criticism that Disney received about its supposed programming
and casting decisions, well, Disney was the only studio to
hit two billion dollars at the domestic box office, so
(09:13):
evidently it was doing something right that every other studio
was doing wrong. Take that however you want.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on Demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Last segment, we were talking about the new trailer which
dropped for Superman, which I think, and I'm gonna call
my shot now, will be the biggest movie of twenty
twenty five. It's there for the taking. Unless Superman does
not deliver, it will be the biggest movie of twenty
twenty five, if only because old young does not matter
(09:46):
your background. Y'all know Superman, and everyone I think will
buy into a good Superman movie period. It's not even
thought of in terms of perception as a comic book movie,
even though it is. People may think of Superman because
of George Reeves or Christopher Reeve, having nothing to do
with comic book authenticity or accuracy. It's an iconic character
(10:11):
in America and a good movie with that character will
do well. And I think it's the right time and
we're right for a really good Superman movie for this era.
Oh and in the movie they have one of Christopher
Reeve's sons. Really yep, one of his sons is in
the movie. It's playing a news reporter. I don't know
how large of a piece, but you know, with James
(10:33):
Gunn there will be all sorts of Easter egg. So
I was listening listening to the trailer and I can
hear the music as a light motif of the John
Williams soundtrack theme two Christopher leeve Reeve's Superman in nineteen
seventy eight.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
As another music person. You have to love that story.
When we were kids, we didn't have much besides like
the let me backtrack here generally, and we were that age.
Scores to movies came out on the records well before
the movie, and that's all we had, and so we
would listen to those things until we practically wore out
the record. And that John Williams Superman score is one
(11:12):
of the most beautiful things he's ever done. It's better
than Star Wars by a lot. I'm being serious, by
a lot.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
As far as just iconic themes, and we used to
always use it as an intro to our nerd not
ned but or comic con the cop broadcast because everyone
recognized it and bought into it. I'm excited in a
few movies that I get, I mean genuinely excited for
because I was a huge fan of the Christopher Reeves
Superman's up until Superman four.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
He was a perfect Superman and that doesn't take anything
away from George Reeves. And if you go down the
list and look at all of them, like even the
Brandon Rouths, Superman had his strong points like this, the
scene in that movie, which not a great movie, not
a great lex Luthor kind of a show tunes.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
The Superman wasn't bad, the movie was bad.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
The scene where he brings down the airplane in that
movie nearly made me cry back at in the day
because special effects finally caught up with the character.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
And the stopping the criminals on the rooftop with it
with the gatling gun.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
With the bullets of the eyeball. Yes, yes, it had
its moments. It just could not live up to its predecessor,
even though pretty much it was a sequel to the
Richard Donner Superman. Yes, absolutely, absolutely it is. It was
considered a sequel, but it wasn't a sequel, if that
makes any sense.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
With the worst lowest lane of all time. Oh leave
her alone? Okay, Okay. I am hopeful about this one
because I think James Gunn gets it and he has
gotten himself into a position where he probably doesn't have
to take a lot of notes from people.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
No, it's he, it's it's his ship, and if it
doesn't do spectacularly, he will get all the blame because
it's not like he can say, well, I wanted this,
but the but the studio wanted that. No, he will
have final decision. What we will see will be the
director's cut. You could say, well, also before we go
to break, gotta let you know this. Disney has been
(13:09):
a lightning rod for a lot of people. It's been
a part of political controversy with its fight with Rohnda
Stantis in Florida where it don't say gay Bill. There
has been a lot of perceived politics surrounding Disney, and
a common refrain you would hear from people is well,
you know, go broke, and it was used most often
(13:31):
in reference to Disney as far as it's casting choices
movie storylines. We talked yesterday about Pixar removing the transgender
storyline from its upcoming series one of its upcoming series.
Despite all that, Disney as a studio is doing just
fine financially, actually better than any other movie studio out
(13:53):
there in the world. It's the only studio to hit
two billion dollars in revenue at the domestic box office
this year. I'm talking about inside Out, and this is
just a domestic now. Inside Out grows six hundred and
fifty three million. You had the highest grossing R rated
movie of all time, Deadpool and Wolverine six hundred and
(14:14):
thirty seven million, and Muana two as of right now
is three hundred and forty two million, and Climbing. Oh
and by the way, Mafossa comes out tomorrow or it's
actually out now in previews, and that's set to do
at least fifty million this weekend. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
Yeah, And that's not counting all the other things that
they own, i e. The Aliens movie that just came out,
which it still did well enough domestically. So with all
the stuff that came out through twenty Sentry, Fox and
all that they're really killing the game.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Yeah, people don't think understand that Disney is a global company.
It's not just speaking to a specific political vent in
a Porsch of America. If you look at Disney Plus subscriptions,
America is not the largest country as far as Disney
Plus subscriptions. It is a worldwide company speaking to a
(15:11):
worldwide audience. And when they're making their programming decisions or
their movie decisions, it's not just about what's happening in
Flyover Country here in America. It's just it's global business.
It's not an American business. It's more than just a
quote unquote multinational corporation. And the receipts in the end
(15:31):
say it all the only studio to hit two billion
dollars at the domestic box office. So no, going forward,
you personally politically may not like the direction of Disney
or the movies that may put out, like the Marvels
or something like that. Or you may not like the
casting choices, like a changing the race of Perry White.
(15:53):
That's what's going to be in this upcoming Superman. Yeah,
but it's going to But I mean, I'm saying now
you listen to white already black from the last couple movies. Yes,
I'm just saying, just for example, people may not like that,
but I'm saying these companies are making the decision because
they're speaking to a larger audience than just a small
(16:14):
portion of America. They're speaking to the world. It is
Later with Mokelly when we come back, and speaking of Disney, well,
you'll have your chance to win a family four pack
to Disney on Ice, Magic and the Stars. That's next,
So don't go anywhere.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
Let me tell you about fifty six of your favorite
Disney stars who will shine brightly in Disney on Ice
as it presents Magic in the Stars, featuring the most
Disney characters in one show with the all star cast
including Mirabel Woody and Buzz, Tiana Mohanna and more, highlighted
by the on Ice debuts of the Frozen two story
(16:57):
plus Riyah from Riya and the Last Dragon. In fact,
we're going to give away a family four pack tonight
to opening Night at the Long Beach Arena, which is Thursday,
January two at seven pm. Joe Jacobson, performance director for
Disney on Ice, joins me now on the show, Joe,
nice to talk to you. How you doing, sir, I'm
doing great. How are you doing? I'm doing well. I
(17:19):
love moments just like these, especially during the holidays. I
don't know how you do it, though, Joe. You have
the weight of the brand, the hopes of children, the
history of the iconic movies that you have to live
up to. Do you ever think or worry about that
when it comes to crafting a show which meets these
lofty expectations.
Speaker 5 (17:39):
Oh? Absolutely. Everyone here on our production really respects and
appreciates how Disney touches so many individuals' lives. Pretty Much
anyone you speak to can think back and have a
connection with a Disney character, and that kind of connection
is really what drives our show forward and is the
(18:00):
inspiration for everything we do out on the Ice. So
we treat it with the utmost respect, and we love
bringing these characters to life on the ice for you guys,
through really dynamic athleticism or really fun choreography and just
great comedy moments throughout the entire show. We really see
that connection with the audience.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Something else that I think about the Disney properties are
different today than when I grew up or you grew up.
There are three D animation movies. Now they're live action movies.
Now they are incorporated into theme parks. And what I
mean by that is people who come to Disney on Ice,
I would argue, are far more knowledgeable, far more invested
(18:41):
than maybe thirty years ago. Would you agree?
Speaker 5 (18:44):
I would agree, And I think that just helps support
people's connection with the characters themselves. The more that people
are exposed to these characters, it develops some more well rounded,
well more well rounded character, and we have to find
more and more creative and exciting ways to bring all
(19:05):
of that action and all of that dynamics or.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
All those dynamics to life.
Speaker 5 (19:11):
So through that we do a lot of things with
involving aerial apparatuses. Riya in the Last Dragon is one
of our new segments here on the show, and she
does a really cool act where she's flying twenty thirty
feet above the ice from a acro pole, where she's
(19:33):
doing a lot of really cool martial arts inspired type moves,
and it just showcases the athleticism some other fun ways
that we're really bringing that to life and just kind
of updating our show to meet the updates of Disney
is we have a really fun ramp act in the
Cave of Wonders during the Aladdin segment. That's really bringing
(19:55):
a lot of more skate park inspired athleticism and things
like that to the show. So you can always expect
to find high quality figure skating at a Disney on
Ice show, but what you get here is also a
lot of really cool a big variety of acts that
are just super exciting and help tell the story in
(20:15):
an effective way.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
I'm speaking with Joe Jacobson, performance director for Disney on Ice,
and Joe, your job title interests me and intrigues me.
I know that no two audiences are alike, No two
performances are like, No two venues are like. What is
your night usually like when you have these performances? I mean,
(20:37):
I know you are an active participant in everything that's
going on, but just walk me through what some of
your duties may be before a show, During a show.
Speaker 5 (20:46):
Well, let's take today, for example, we're getting ready to
open here at Cryptocrypto dot Com arena. I'm used to
calling at Staples just because I grew up in the
area exactly, But yeah, we're getting ready to open up here,
and it never just is the night for somebody in
my position. I usually get here quite early in the
(21:08):
morning and stay through until well after the show ends
at night. And part of that is just because we
have such a large show featuring over fifty five Disney characters.
That means we have a very large cast. We have
a really big crew that's doing everything they can to
help make this a magical experience for families. So we
(21:29):
usually do a whole lot of rehearsing leading into that time,
making sure all the lighting and the costumes look just right,
all the other aspects beyond just the skating, and then
we also give our performers a chance to warm up,
and I go out there and I touch base with
them to make sure that they're consistently elevating their performance
to the highest level possible.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
What's it like, seeing especially children's faces light up.
Speaker 5 (21:54):
Oh, it's one of the things that brings me the
most joy from my job, one thing that I never
really got to experience much as a performer. Sure, you
can see that face to face connection because it is
live entertainment and you get the live feedback when you're
out on the Ice, But as the director, I'm actually
kind of more out in the audience day to day,
(22:16):
and oftentimes I have headsets on, so I kind of
stand out a little bit. And we get a lot
of feedback from families, and it always blows my mind
just how much these shows can impact people and how
it can bring families together, especially around the holiday season.
It's a time where people are really looking for that
connection with their loved ones, and our show is a
(22:38):
great way of kind of helping foster that.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Very quickly, since you mentioned families, what are the age
ranges that you're seeing. I'm quite sure you're seeing grandparents
and grand children. What else can you tell me about
just the dynamics of the people who are in attendance.
Speaker 5 (22:55):
Well, I think a lot of times Disney on Ice
has this People go into it if they haven't ever
been to a Disney on Ice show, expecting that it's
going to be geared for younger girls and things like that.
But what we're finding is that it really these characters
connect with everybody, and whether it's a young family out
(23:15):
experiencing a group outing. We have a lot of people
who come here on dates. We have people who are
just hardcore figure skating fans and they enjoy seeing that.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Aspect of the show.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
So it's a really wide range. Our audience touches a
whole lot of people, and I think as people experience it,
there really is something for everyone.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
Well, Joe Jacobson, you're getting ready to touch for more
people because, as I said in my introduction, we're giving
away a family four pack to Thursday's performance January two,
at the Long Beach Arena at seven pm. To that end,
I need a number from you, Joe Jacobson, performance director
for Disney on Ice, between one and ten.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Let's go eight.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
If you're number eight, you and three members of your
family or friends will be going to see Disney on Ice.
It's something you don't want to miss. Disney on Ice
presents Magic in the Stars January second, twenty twenty five
at the Long Beach Arena at seven pm. Caller number eight.
I would like to thank my guest Joe Jacobson, who
(24:20):
is the performance director for Disney on Ice. Joe, thank
you so much for what you do and the magic
that you helped bring the children at adults nationwide and beyond.
Thank you for coming on tonight.
Speaker 5 (24:31):
Oh thanks for having me and I can't wait to
see the winners of the contest at the show.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Well make sure that we make that happen.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
And I enjoy, always enjoy giving away prizes to cool events.
We just gave away a family four pack to Disney
on Ice for January second at the Long Beach Arena Tuala.
Do we have a winner? We absolutely do.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
Congrasts atulations are in order to mister Doug Stags of
Lake Elsinore.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
It's a little bit of a drive. He can do it, Okay,
he will do it because he wants to see it.
He was so excited.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
I don't know if it was his wife in his
car in the car with.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Him, but they were through the moon.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Oh good, I'd love to hear that. Listening to the
whole conversation too. Longtime fan loves the show.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
I really do appreciate that, and that's something we're going
to be doing even more. In twenty twenty five, we
gave away a nice number of gifts. In twenty twenty three,
we gave them away even more. In twenty twenty four,
we're going to up the ante in twenty twenty five.
I guarantee it, and speak of speaking of giveaways tomorrow
(25:44):
on name that movie call Classic. It's a blowout, basically,
end of the year game. Everything must go. Our remaining
t shirts, our remaining keychains, our remaining coffee mugs, We're
giving them all away tomorrow night. That said, we still
need first time callers. There's no point in giving away
(26:06):
all these cool prizes to people who already have won
or some or all of those things. So we want
to make sure tomorrow for our end of the year
holiday edition. We're not doing it for New Year's Eve
or whenever it is. This will be the last game
of the year. We want to make sure that we're
giving away these prizes to first time callers. People who
(26:27):
haven't won anything, may have been reticent to call in,
weren't so sure about playing the game. Well, this is
your opportunity. Everything must go. Of course, it will be
holiday themed, I can tell you right now. Either they
will be explicitly Christmas or holiday movies, or there will
be a Christmas slash holiday dinner scene in it. Okay,
(26:55):
so that's all I'll tell you. I have not even
pulled the movies yet, but I do know it'll be
one or the other, a blatant Christmas movie, holiday movie,
or a movie which just happens to have a Christmas
scene in it. And I have some I have a
short list in my mind of that which I'm gonna get.
(27:18):
Those can be tough. Oh it's only tough for me.
It's gonna be impossible for them.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
Okay, okay, because most of us know all the top
classic holiday films. So you're gonna have to dig and
find some scenes.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
Oh you may not know, Yes I will. I will.
So if you just assume it's going to be a
Christmas movie, you might make it more difficult for yourself
than it needs to be. It just may be a
scene that has a holiday backdrop in a given movie.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
You know, every single Friday, you know, when I'm overtaking
listener calls and things like that, I'm listening to what
people are saying. I never look at the folder because
I could. I could look at the folder and I
could find out what the movies are, but I never
ever do. I'm always sitting out there listening and challenging myself.
And last week there were a lot of films that
(28:14):
I know, but I didn't know the cut. I was
shocked with some of the contest callers who called in
first time callers who actually got those dumps out there, like, Man,
I work here, I'm next door, and I don't know
these movies.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
I'm telling you, last week arguably was the best group
of callers We've ever had, best group of callers, energy,
spirit of playing the game success as far as guessing
the movie with the least amount of help. Arguably the
best group of callers. So tomorrow you'll be judged against
that group. And again I'll say it tomorrow. Of course,
(28:50):
we want first time callers. We want to make sure
that people who get these last best gifts are people
who've not played the game before, not won a prize before,
don't have anything to show it show for it, but
are obviously fans and supporters of the show. We give
away the most T shirts by far, We give away
the most gifts by far. This is our way of
(29:10):
saying thank you to the many and varied listeners who
have supported us over the course of this year and
previous years. In fact, I might even have a shirt
for Mark Ronner. At some point he keeps asking for
one but we keep forgetting to give it to him.
Oh you know, we got to give Mark Mark. Here's
what we'll give you.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
Okay, here, we'll give you yes, and we may be
able to give you fifteen of them.
Speaker 4 (29:31):
Oh yeah, we have the official later with mo Kelly diapers,
yet we need to have some pit diapers for twenty
twenty five. We'll get the pit diapers and we'll get
them branded with most face on the crotch.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
We'll keep do that the other side, other side, on
the other side. Okay, that's that's fine. But we're going
to give you at least twenty the mo Kelly show
comic con shirts. They're sex you can wear them as nightgowns.
Twenty I'll give you twenty of those shirts. You might
have eighteen friends.
Speaker 4 (30:00):
One would be good. I'm sure they're very absorbent. We've
got like, no, we have enough.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
We have a lot that we have no use for,
so we thought we'd give them to you. You know
that I am not goodwill, right, No goodwill would actually
give them to someone else. We want you to have these.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
You just want me to like go through one a
day for twenty days.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
Why no shirts? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (30:21):
Yeah, boy, if only I still had cats.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
And on that note, see Robin said, I refuse to
give you a room shot.
Speaker 4 (30:36):
I refuse and tough crowd today, tough crowd.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
Well, tomorrow's another day. We will see you tomorrow. Get
ready for the holiday blowout of all we have name
