Transcript

FletchCast Intro 0:02

Broadcasting fly live and around the world around the world from Cabana One the only podcast that's all ball bearings your ultimate source for everything fled. Thank you, Doc. Ever serve time? Laker Jim and its beat reporters will stop at nothing to make sure Fletch lives forever. Forever. They don't shower much.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 0:50

Welcome, Fletch fans, to a very monumentous episode of Fletchcast. As always, I'm your host, Licker Jim. It's March. At least we're recording this in March. And that could only mean one thing: Fletch Map. Now you can hear from the roar of the crowd behind me that we are just minutes away from the greatest movie quote tournament in modern history. As the fans continue to file into the fabled sport arena, you can hear the tension and you can cut it with a knife. Because tonight we crown the greatest fletch quote of all time. By my side, as always, my Scott Romanian color man Jake. And Jake, for some of these quotes, this is their 37th year in the big dance.

Jake Parrish 1:29

I tell you one thing, I'm really excited to be here. And uh yeah, we've got a lot of history behind us, and uh, you know, the future looks great.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 1:36

And let me tell you, folks, racketologists have analyzed the metrics of what we're about to do. And the National Committee of Cinematic Dialogue was brought in to determine the seeding of these flex quotes. Jake, let's send it down to Big Bob who's on the sidelines. He's been fist deep all week in some of today's vocal titans. Bob, what type of insight can you give us uh that maybe we can look for today?

"Big Bob" West 1:58

Laker Jam, I I am on the sidelines. I'm actually backstage right now. Like in the tension in the air, you can cut it with Thunder Hills American Express cards. I spoke to, over the last week, I've spoken to all the quotes. No one wants to lose and have their wages darn a sheep. No one is showering much. Every quote has two bottles of Don Perignon ready to go in celebration. And as far as you know, it's an elephant book zoo back here. I spoke to Frida's boss. He doesn't know what to expect, and even Ed McMahon is saying you choose the winner.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 2:31

You're not the best sideline reporter in the business for nothing. Jake, let me ask you, will weather play a factor in any of today's matchups?

Jake Parrish 2:38

Earlier, we had a lot of problems with that strong north wind. Those menure spreaders on the Santa Ana, boy, they had some real, real problems. And forget about trying to fly from LA to Provo. With that strong headwind, you're never gonna get there on time. But again, things are starting to improve, and I think we'll have smooth sailing for the tournament.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 2:58

Okay, folks, it's time. Let's get this fletch quote tournament underway. Now, let me just tell you how this gonna work. It's gonna work very much like the March Man This Brack tournament, only including the greatest fletch quotes of all time. We have a total of 36 quotes that have semi-qualified for the big dance here. Okay, we have four play-in tournaments for quotes that were just on the bubble. So they'll have a play-in game.

"Big Bob" West 3:21

Before we get started, the quotes themselves, they're all quotes from the original Fletch movie, No Fletch Lives this time around. And also, if there are some back and forth other characters uh to play off of, that is part of it, but they are all quotes directly from the man himself, RM Fletcher.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 3:37

Okay, so let's start in the promo division. That's conference A. The first matchup that we're gonna analyze and determine is Tonight's matchup, Moon River.

SPEAKER_06 3:50

Thank you, Doc. You ever serve time?

SPEAKER_16 3:52

Virgil!

SPEAKER_06 3:53

Yeah, but I mean the very end, when he actually died, that was extremely sudden.

SPEAKER_16 3:56

Here's the 10 seconds.

"Big Bob" West 4:01

What do you guys think of this matchup here? These are two Titans. Now, Moon River didn't get the one seed here. I think that's a given. You know, we look at uh the most quotable lines in the history of Fletch. I think that they're Moon River stands at the top. Uh personally, this was a tough decision for me. Uh I do have to go with the heavy favorite and and and favor Moon River in a sense.

Jake Parrish 4:22

Yeah, I agree. No Cinderella story here. Uh especially when we think back to where our Fletch 1 website began and where all of us kind of came together. Where was that? It was the Moon River message board. So, how could we go against that right now? There you go. So for me, I agree. Moon River all the way.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 4:39

I couldn't agree more. Uh, this is a blowout. Moon River advances in this tournament. And how about the fact that both quotes come directly from the offices of Dr. Dolan? Yes, they do. All right, let's stay in the Provo Division as well, and we're gonna now analyze tonight's matchup one B-A-V-A-R.

SPEAKER_06 4:56

That's two. Yeah, but not right next to each other. I thought that's what you meant. Versus I don't shower much.

Jake Parrish 5:01

Here's the test of a second. Well, again, you know, I I I love the I don't shower much line at the beginning of the movie, but again, I'm going to have to probably go with a quote that happened in Dr. Dolan's office because we talk about the Babar books again and again and again. So with me, I've got to go with that.

"Big Bob" West 5:22

Jake, I you know, I'm gonna have to go against you on this one. Um, I'm going with I don't shower much. I think it's uh it's a quick quote, it's uh it's nice, it's clean, and and unlike me, uh I don't shower much.

Jake Parrish 5:34

I I knew that's why you went with it. Uh yeah, obviously you can relate.

"Big Bob" West 5:38

Yeah, so Laker Jim, we're gonna have our first tie break here. Laker Jim, you're gonna have to break the tie.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 5:42

I think I think I'm gonna go with the Babar quote.

"Big Bob" West 5:45

Yes.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 5:47

I mean, if if you really analyze it, it's it's a quote that's memorable. Yes, I agree that I don't shower much is a nice little quick, sharp quote, and I love it. But I think it it crumbles in the fourth quarter against Babar.

"Big Bob" West 6:02

My entire bracket is busted now. No, that's fine. I I I yeah, without a doubt. It's it's the heavy favorite, and and and I can see it.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 6:10

Let's hop over to the South American back conference. That's conference C.

SPEAKER_06 6:16

I rent them. I have a lease with an option to buy. Versus uh, you're using the whole fist doc. Just relax. Here's the tip.

SPEAKER_16 6:24

Four seconds, three, fifty, hard.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 6:27

Oof. How about you, like Virginia? You start us off. Yeah, this is uh this is a tough one. These these guys are kind of evenly matched, I think. Um, but I think in the end, using a whole fist doc is the one that's more memorable, more used. It's a it's a quote that people want to work into the regular life. So I'm going with uh using a whole fist doc.

Jake Parrish 6:46

I have to agree, uh, especially someone that is uh looking down the barrel of a colonoscopy here in just a few weeks. Uh I think that I would probably, and that line has uh has come to my mind uh much more recently, uh often, and actually I have it ready to go after said procedure. So I think I will go with the fist line as well. Bob.

"Big Bob" West 7:08

The thing about the rubber gloves line is you often use that line not talking about rubber gloves. You'll say things like I have at least one option to buy when you're not actually talking about rubber gloves. I'm talking about in real life when you're when you're working that line into your your you know your your everyday conversation. But yeah, uh there's no doubt in my mind. Uh using the whole fist stock that that takes the day.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 7:28

So using the whole fist advances to the next round, and they will take on the winner of this matchup, which is tonight's matchup.

SPEAKER_18 7:36

What kind of a name is Poon?

SPEAKER_06 7:38

Comanche Indian. I'm with the mattress police. There are no tags on these mattresses.

SPEAKER_16 7:43

Here's the tip! Four seconds, three, fifty hundred Jake.

"Big Bob" West 7:48

What do you got?

Jake Parrish 7:48

I'll I'll start. And although I know mattress police is one that uh we talk about a lot, uh I I tell you, I have to go with Poon because I use that line all the time. My brother and I will use that term just out of the blue. I will text him and ask him what kind of name is Poon? So and the Comanche Indian response is just classic. So uh Poon for me.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 8:18

I have to agree. I have to agree. It's just it's it's just a powerful quote. This is the big time. I mean, we're here looking for the greatest quote of all time, and Poon is gonna make a big push.

Jake Parrish 8:29

Yes, a big Poon push. Well, Bob, I I guess it's a new point now, Bob, but this is this is a real uh personal one for me.

"Big Bob" West 8:38

You know, when I was a uh little Bob, not Big Bob like I am now, when I was a little Bob, my grandmother uh thrust her soul. She used to claim that we had uh Native American blood. For that reason alone, I have to go with Comanche Indian, just to honor her. And I don't know if that's true or not. I I'm sure everybody does if you go you know far back and trace your ancestry back far enough. But I I always believed that I did have Native American blood. I could feel it.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 9:01

And and I want to believe it's Comanche. So it's a clean sweep. Okay, let's head down to the Los Angeles division. That's conference D. Yeah. We're gonna deal with their their number one matchup, which is the night matchup.

SPEAKER_06 9:13

Oh, it's me, Dr. Rosenpenis. I'm just here to check out Dan Wick's file.

unknown 9:17

Dr.

SPEAKER_06 9:17

Rosen Rose, and I'm here to get some records from it's Dr. Rosen. I I uh I want to check the records room. Dr. Rose! By the way, I charged the entire vacation of Mr. Underhill's American Express card. Want the number?

Jake Parrish 9:30

Here's the 10 seconds. Oh Bob, you can start.

"Big Bob" West 9:34

This is tough.

Jake Parrish 9:35

This is tough.

"Big Bob" West 9:36

This is this, I don't know what you guys, I don't know how you guys think this is tough. I this is a Dr. Rosen Rosen all the way for me. I mean, I I use Dr. I use that line once a month. Uh, I can't think of the last time I used the other one. So yeah, Dr. Rosen.

Jake Parrish 9:50

Let me go against you on that. I'm gonna have to go ahead and kind of disagree with you on that uh because I believe that the underhill line is one, the last line of the movie. I think it gets one more big laugh as the movie wraps up. And again, it does make reference to the underhills, which is someone that we continue to talk about over and over and over again. Although I do love Dr. Rose and Rose and Dr. Rose and penis, that's a great scene. I have to go with the underhill line. So, Bob, sorry about that.

"Big Bob" West 10:24

I don't have I don't have the unenviable task of having to make this decision.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 10:27

So they go that's why they pay me the big bucks. So listen, you guys make great points. You really this really is a tough one for me. But I but I feel like if I'm judging based on iconicness, I'm going to have to lean towards the Dr. Rosenrosen quote.

"Big Bob" West 10:43

Oh my god.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 10:45

I think Dr. Rosenrosen advances.

"Big Bob" West 10:47

They pay him the big bucks because he's the best lettuce washer in the business. I am glad you're on my gracious.

Jake Parrish 10:52

Pull the knife out of my back. I cannot believe you went against me on that.

"Big Bob" West 10:55

Oh, sorry, Jake. These things happen. This is this is tough.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 10:58

Fletch quote, man. This is a tough man's game. It's insanity from start to finish. So now Dr. Rosenrosen is going to advance and they're going to take on The Night Matchup! Strangers in the night.

SPEAKER_18 11:11

Exchanging clothing.

SPEAKER_06 11:13

Strangers in my pants. Strangers woven.

SPEAKER_16 11:17

Birthdays!

SPEAKER_06 11:18

I don't know. I don't have any. No children. No elephant books.

SPEAKER_16 11:23

Here's the tip! Four seconds, three, fifteen, hundreds.

"Big Bob" West 11:26

So this is a tough one for me because I, like right now, I have a pretty bad uh not even a cold, but allergies, and my voice is a little off. Uh, but this gives me the perfect bass in my voice to sing Strangers in the Night. And I've been singing it for a week now. But the fact of the matter is, uh, I have to go with no children, no elephant books here. What about you later, Jim? Right.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 11:48

Now I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna vote based on personal opinion, and I'm gonna say the Strangers in the Night, Little Hum Diddy, is something I sing very, very often. So I am going to move my vote towards Strangers in the Nights. Jake, it's up to you to break this tie.

Jake Parrish 12:08

Well, I I I have to tell you, as much as I like the little ditty, I have to go with no children, no elephant books.

"Big Bob" West 12:16

Woo!

Jake Parrish 12:17

Because uh that's something that I quote on our social media. Uh it's something that I think a lot of people talk about. Because that scene is iconic, but uh, we talk about no, and I've said before, no children, no elephant books. So for me, that's the winner. Do you work it into your professional life? Um, not on television, but I mean I've used it in certain social situations. Absolutely. Maybe that's maybe that's a 20, maybe that's a 2022 goal for you.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 12:46

Uh where are we going next, Jim? So now let's head over to the beach conference. That's conference B for you guys scoring at home.

SPEAKER_06 12:57

You know, they ought to recall these things. You hit one good bump out here, and boom, whole rear window explodes.

SPEAKER_16 13:02

Here's the tip! Four seconds, three, fifty, hundreds.

unknown 13:08

Boom.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 13:09

All right. I don't think this is gonna take much.

Jake Parrish 13:12

I agree.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 13:13

No, this is easy. I think it's gonna be an easy. This is easy. This is a blowout. It's it's it's all it's all ball bearings by a mile.

"Big Bob" West 13:20

Much like the window. This is a blowout. It's all ball bearings. Yeah, again, it's it's the one C versus the uh you know the underdog again. No doubt about it. Okay, let's oh, now we have a play-in game.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 13:30

We have our first play-in game, everybody. Okay, so now we're talking about these were bubble quotes that almost made it, and you and now we can vote them into the bracket. One will live in infamy. Play in quote C. Tonight's matchup!

SPEAKER_06 13:43

Well, there we're in a kind of a gray area. All right, all gray. Charcoal!

SPEAKER_01 13:49

Could you love someone who looked like that?

SPEAKER_06 13:51

What are you talking about? Of course not. Five, ten minutes tops, maybe.

SPEAKER_16 13:56

Four seconds, three, fifteen hundred.

Jake Parrish 14:02

For me, it's five, ten minutes tops. I've used that line several times when talking about the opposite sex as a joke.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 14:11

If this is something I'm passionate about, there we're in kind of a gray area, is a quote that I think is very iconic, something I use a lot. Okay. Try to work it in. So I'm gonna go with there we're in kind of a gray area.

Jake Parrish 14:23

Okay, Bob.

"Big Bob" West 14:24

I don't think I can last five, ten minutes. So uh I'm gonna say uh just because Laker Jim and I uh I used to alley them a lot in this one, I would say how how gray, Laker Jim. And I I would always light up when he would turn to me and say, Charcoal. This is when we were younger. So I'm I I have to, for nostalgia's purposes, I gotta go with uh charcoal.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 14:42

All right, all right. So charcoal is now in the tournament. Charcoal is immediately taking on tonight's matchup.

SPEAKER_06 14:49

Can I borrow your towel for a sec? My car just hit a water buffalo. Nice place you have here. Well, there we're in a kind of a gray area. All right, all gray. Charcoal.

SPEAKER_16 15:00

Here's the tip. Four seconds, three, fifty.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 15:02

No rest for the weary. Let me just jump in here and listen. Let me just say, like, hats off to charcoal. You really fought hard to get into the tournament, but when you pit them up against the true contenders for this title, which the water buffalo line is, and we see Fletch often go to towel humor in Fletch and Fletch lives a lot. So when you count the scene, iconicness, quotability, being memorable, I don't think there's any uh chance Kirch Charcoal has in this matchup. Although I love the line, it's water buffalo by a blowout. There you go.

Jake Parrish 15:38

I definitely agree.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 15:39

Okay, now let's take it back to the Provo conference. That's conference A. And we have another play-in quote. Oof. Two in a row, back to back. The play-in quote, the play-in matchup is the night matchup!

SPEAKER_06 15:53

I can't have my wages garnishied. You don't mean communist, for example.

SPEAKER_16 15:58

Here's the town.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 16:00

Go ahead, LJ. You start on this one. I can't have my wages garnishied. Is a quote I love. I love the way he says garnishy. That that's an easy one for me.

Jake Parrish 16:08

Yeah, and I've used that line many times. Definitely garnishied all the way.

"Big Bob" West 16:12

I don't know why I thought this was going to be more of a debate. Yeah, it's definitely garnished. Yeah.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 16:17

Okay, Garnishy is into this ornament, and they immediately turn around and take on tonight's matchup.

SPEAKER_06 16:26

I can't have my wages garnishied.

SPEAKER_08 16:28

Birthday!

SPEAKER_06 16:29

Yeah, do you have the Beatles White album? Never mind. Just get me a glass of hot fat. And bring me the head of Alfredo Garcia while you're out there.

SPEAKER_16 16:35

Here's the 10 seconds.

"Big Bob" West 16:39

Now, for me, that that quote, the the quote, the the line, the quote inside the quote there is bring me a cup of hot fat.

SPEAKER_13 16:46

Yes, that's a great one.

"Big Bob" West 16:48

Um I'm sticking with Garnishy. I don't know about you two, but I'm I'm following my heart, sticking with Garnishy. Maybe a Cinderella story for Garnishy. All right.

Jake Parrish 16:56

Let me do this. I'm going the opposite. I love that entire line. I love that entire scene. I have asked people if they've had the Beatles White album. I've asked for a cup of hot fat. I've used the Alfredo Garcia line, which has totally gone over anybody's head unless those that are Fletch fans like are ourselves. So for me, it's it's that line or lines. So LJ, you're the tiebreaker on that one.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 17:20

This is a really tough one for me because personally I love the Garnishy line. It's a it's a quote that I use and I feel like people love. Um but Jake, you you kind of sold me on the Beatles White album thing. Um oh god, which way am I going here? Yeah, I think Jake, you I think you convinced us. I think it Beatles White album uh advanced.

"Big Bob" West 17:41

Nice. So playing quote, I can't have my wages garner sheet, got themselves in, got themselves right out on their ass on the way out. One one one great playing game, but as we normally see in this world, the playing teams don't make it.

Jake Parrish 17:54

Yeah, well, you know, their playing time was garner sheet.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 17:58

Okay, let's see who let's see see who the couple half fat is gonna take on in the next round. Oh, this one's a this one's a great matchup.

SPEAKER_00 18:06

Tonight's matchup! Sugar Mr. Pooh.

SPEAKER_06 18:10

No, never, never.

unknown 18:11

Thank you.

SPEAKER_06 18:12

I'm Frida's boss.

SPEAKER_16 18:14

Who's Frida?

SPEAKER_06 18:15

My secretary.

SPEAKER_16 18:16

Here's the tip! Four seconds, three, fifteen, hundreds.

Jake Parrish 18:23

I might need this is a tough one. I might need a second on this one.

"Big Bob" West 18:27

Yeah, I know I'll I'll go first. Uh this is this is about as as equally matched as we've seen so far in this tournament. I have gotta go, sugar mr. Coolin, because no never never is something that I have quoted probably a nauseam at this point in my life. Jake, what do you what do you think?

Jake Parrish 18:43

Uh I 100% agree. No, never never within that is something that I've used. So I'm sorry. So, LJ, if you was thinking the other way. No, I'm not. I'm not. No, never never. I already had it written down.

"Big Bob" West 18:55

I mean, listen, that's that's that's a shame that my secretary for such a buzz saw there.

Jake Parrish 19:01

But come on. No, never never.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 19:02

Yeah, can't can't beat it. And no never never comes back in a different part of the movie when she says you're not recording this. Right exactly. Okay, let's head over to the South American back conference. That's conference C. Okay.

Jake Parrish 19:16

I love that conference. South American back okay.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 19:22

Uh, this matchup. Have you ever seen a spleen that large?

SPEAKER_06 19:28

No, not since breakfast. I love your body, Larry.

SPEAKER_16 19:32

Here's the tip four seconds three fifteen hundred pounds.

Jake Parrish 19:36

That's easy. I love your body, Larry. Yeah. I must have said that a thousand times.

"Big Bob" West 19:43

I agree. That one's gonna be a strong contender today, Bob. I I think that I love your body, Larry, for a uh third seed might be the the the the seed that upset the one. So yeah, I love your body, Larry. He's a no-brainer.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 19:56

Let's stay in the same conference to see who is going to take on. I love your body, Larry. Body over brains. Go on. Exactly. Another heavy hitter here.

SPEAKER_08 20:04

Tonight's matchup.

SPEAKER_06 20:05

Yes, very good. I'll have uh Bloody Mary and a steak sandwich and a steak sandwich, please. Versus curiously, she said we had roughly the same build from the waist up, I imagine.

SPEAKER_16 20:16

Here's the tip!

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 20:17

Four seconds, three, fifteen, hundred doesn't get much more iconic than the Bloody Mary steak sandwich line. So I'm gonna throw my vote towards the steak sandwich. It's a quote that a semi-fletch fan knows. That's one of the lines that you know a non-hardcore fletch fan knows.

"Big Bob" West 20:35

Jake, do you want to be the deciding factor? I can if you'd like. All right, I'm gonna go uh the other way.

Jake Parrish 20:41

I'm gonna go from the from the uh waist up. Well, I'm sorry, Bob, but I have to go with a Bloody Mary a steak sandwich, a steak sandwich. Naturally, of course. I think when when someone hears that I just wanted to create a little drama. I think when someone hears that, anybody who's even heard that maybe a few times immediately thinks of Fletch.

"Big Bob" West 21:00

Yeah, it's it's definitely it's all bar bearings and it's all steak sandwiches.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 21:03

Yeah, no doubt. Let's head over to Los Angeles conference where we have a play-in quote. Play-in quote B. Okay. Let's see this matchup to see who's gonna enter the tournament right here.

SPEAKER_08 21:14

Tonight's matchup. You'll cop! As far as you know, versus come on, Frank say yes.

SPEAKER_03 21:20

I'll buy you some new deodorant.

SPEAKER_16 21:21

Here's the tip of the second three, 1500.

"Big Bob" West 21:25

I'm gonna I'm gonna go first. I'm gonna go first. Forget about the RUCOP. As far as you know, is oh my god. Again, it's something I say constantly, but I do love the uh the deodorant quote, too. I have to go with as far as you know, but that's a tough, tough playing game. Maybe the toughest so far.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 21:47

As far as you know, is a Chevy Chase personal quote. He says it a lot, you hear it a lot in movies, you hear it a lot in interviews. Yeah, probably added it into the movie by him. But as far as Electra movie quotes go, I'm gonna say, come on and Gonna buy some deodorant. Okay, Jakey.

Jake Parrish 22:02

And I'm with you. I'm with you. Deodorant. Deodorant for sure. I mean, think about it. Think about our Christmas episode, um, some of the images we've shared. We've had pictures of deodorant. I mean, we think about that all the time. So definitely.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 22:17

Deodorant has made the dance and it takes on.

Jake Parrish 22:21

Tonight's matchup offered.

SPEAKER_03 22:23

God, dun, done. Who is it, Mr. Singland? Come on, Frank. Say yes. I'll buy you some new deodorant.

SPEAKER_16 22:30

Here's the tip. Four seconds.

SPEAKER_03 22:35

That's incredible.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 22:40

Ugh, this is tough.

"Big Bob" West 22:41

But I think or Jim, you go first.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 22:43

Oh god. Oh god. Okay. I think uh I think I'm gonna go Mr. Cinnon. I think that's uh a little more iconic. Pitted up against new deodorant.

Jake Parrish 22:54

Okay, let me uh I'll let Bob be the tiebreaker on this one because I'm sticking with deodorant. Because I really just love that line. Because it's kind of a throwaway line, but it's classic.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 23:06

And it's just funny to think about that. That might be so random, too. It's a deciding factor whether Frank agrees with Fletch or not. That's the bribe.

Jake Parrish 23:19

I know, and it's like of all things deodorant. So I'm I'm I'm going with deodorant. So, Bob, it's up to you this time.

"Big Bob" West 23:27

You guys really screwed me here. Here's the thing. Uh, just simply because of how often I use the line. Fuck me. Um, I have to go with and it's not anything to do with Cinnelinden, uh, or who is it. It's it's the oh for god. I have to agree with you. I have to I have to keep that one in the tournament because I I it wouldn't be fair if I didn't include that. Sorry for the playing uh in and out, but uh, but yeah, it it I say for god done every day of my life.

Jake Parrish 24:05

Uh the deodorant now is gone.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 24:08

And Chemi's face when he says it, it's that oh gosh, it's it's a that the deodorant is gone, Jake, but honestly, uh we could always buy you some deodorant.

Jake Parrish 24:18

That's true. Uh that is a great line, too. Uh, because I do say for gosh dawn. I mean, I've said it a million times, too. But I mean like the deodorant line's classic.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 24:27

Okay, so now for gosh dawn is going to take on the winner of the next matchup. Okay.

SPEAKER_06 24:34

Tonight's matchup, John Cocktoast.

SPEAKER_01 24:38

It's a beautiful name.

SPEAKER_06 24:39

Well, it's Scotch Romania.

SPEAKER_01 24:40

It's an odd combination.

SPEAKER_06 24:41

Yeah, well, so are my parents. Don't talk to me like that, ass face. I don't work for you yet.

SPEAKER_01 24:46

Here's the tip.

Jake Parrish 24:49

Well, I'll start with this one, and this is this is easy. It's a John Cocktoast in all the way. Wow, you think that's easy? I oh my gosh, come on.

"Big Bob" West 24:59

I'm gonna put this on Laker Gym to make the decision because unless somebody's name is John, I don't there's not a lot of situations in this world where I say John cocktoased in. That's not what that's not part of my regular uh rap here. So, but you know, I love the way Fletch just has no fear of Stanwick when he drops. Don't talk to me about that, Asspace. I don't work for you yet. Just like he just, you know, fuck you, and I'm I'm I'll throw it right back at you, rich asshole, I'll throw it right back at you. I just the way he it just it's it's such a personality builder, character builder, uh, for for Fletch, the way he kind of fires right back at him. So I'm gonna go with uh Aspace.

Jake Parrish 25:38

I mean, I I agree with that, but again, as far as classic iconic lines from the movie, yeah.

"Big Bob" West 25:44

I mean, come on, John Coctoston. John Coctowsten is right there with B A B A R, you know, and I agree with you, but I I I just I love the delivery of Don't Talk to Mike That Asspace because I I've said that to like my boss.

SPEAKER_13 25:55

Well, I mean I've said it to you, so I mean I get it.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 26:00

Listen, you guys make great points. You really you really do make a case for both lines, but I think I'm going to side with Jake.

"Big Bob" West 26:09

You'll regret it.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 26:10

You'll regret it. The iconic quote here, and we'll advance and take on gosh John later on. Guys, you guys are gonna regret it. Let's fly over to the beach conference. That's conference B. I'm gonna roll the skin over and analyze the matchup.

SPEAKER_08 26:24

Tonight's matchup.

SPEAKER_06 26:25

I like men. I like to be manhandled. I like you. Versus well, traffic with murder. You know, one of those uh manure spreaders jackknifed on the Santa Ana. God awful mess. You should see my shoes.

SPEAKER_16 26:39

Jake Parrish 26:43

This is easy. I mean, it's not even I mean, it's manure spreader all the way.

"Big Bob" West 26:48

Absolutely. I couldn't agree more. Yeah, I agree. This is a blowout.

Jake Parrish 26:52

This is a hey, not all of them, not all of them have got to be hard. Well, you're right, because I know it's only gonna get more difficult.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 26:59

Okay, so now manure spitter is gonna take a break a little bit because they're gonna sit back and watch a play-in game to see who's gonna take on, I assure you, in the next round. So let's let's look at play-in quote D, which is the night matchup.

SPEAKER_19 27:16

Sammy, you're not gonna sing for us, are you?

SPEAKER_06 27:18

Versus, yeah, Erwin M. Fletcher, you choose.

Jake Parrish 27:30

Jesus. Oh my god. This is so tough.

"Big Bob" West 27:36

Yeah, this is not easy. I don't want to be first.

Jake Parrish 27:39

Uh okay, I'll go first.

"Big Bob" West 27:42

Brave man.

Jake Parrish 27:43

I think I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go with you're not gonna sing for us, are you, Sammy? Okay, I love that scene. I mean, I love all the scenes, but the confidence he has there is just fantastic.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 27:57

I'm gonna throw in a dark horse here. I'm gonna go with because I just love the delivery and and the cadence of the line is something I do in regular in real life. You know, the Irwin M plus is woo wee oh boy, I lost again. Sorry. I have done that, and I I love that line, I love that part. You dirty dog.

Jake Parrish 28:17

Yeah, I mean, I thought we were friends. I mean, like, I'm learning more and more about you guys, and I'm just I'm not I don't like what I'm hearing.

"Big Bob" West 28:25

Don't worry, Jake. Don't worry, because I've had some time to think because uh you know real life events just occurred, and uh you're uh you're not gonna see your your your pick go to waste. I am also not gonna sort for SRD Sammy. I mean, listen, I I couldn't agree with you more like a gym. The Irwin and Fletcher you choose, ooh, yeah, I lost again. Sorry. I I love the cadence, I love the delivery, but I quote me personally, a big thing for me in this whole thing is how often do I actually quote the quote? And I you're not gonna sing for us already Sammy, I quote all the time. So all right, you guys are probably probably right. I think that's the first time you got shot down.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 29:02

Okay, well, listen, you're not gonna sing for a Sammy has no rest because it is immediately taking on tonight's matchups.

SPEAKER_05 29:08

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 29:24

I'm gonna go with uh you're not gonna sing for us, Sammy. I mean, it's an iconic scene, something we sort of start the podcast with, you know, a thank you to Sammy for the intro.

Jake Parrish 29:34

It's very true. I'm sick of a Sammy too. I'm sick of the city, bro. So I think I'm gonna go with Sammy as well. I love that line. You know what else is great about that scene is Sammy's reaction too, when he kind of like hits back and kind of smiles at him. Yeah. So I'm sticking with Sammy just because of his reaction as well.

"Big Bob" West 29:54

And I love that actor. I love that actor so much in the movie Clue.

Jake Parrish 31:45

Uh just because I'm gonna give the tiebreaker to LJ, I'm going with the Beatles White album line.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 31:51

Okay, so I'm throwing it to you. And I'm gonna have to say no never never advances. Yeah, it's just such a clean quote.

"Big Bob" West 31:58

Yeah, I know. Well, you know, sometimes we gotta see our favorites go out early, and I know it's tough for you, but no never never is a tough one to beat, and it put up a hell of a fight.

Jake Parrish 32:08

Don't ever ask me for a cup of hot fat again.

unknown 32:10

Ever.

Jake Parrish 32:11

Yeah, you know what I'll say? No, never never. That's what I'll say.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 32:16

SPEAKER_18 32:31

Uh, you're using the whole fist stock. What kind of a name is Poon? Comanche Indian.

SPEAKER_16 32:37

Here's the tip four seconds, three, fifty.

Jake Parrish 32:40

Well, I'm gonna go Poon. Just because, like I said, I use it so much, I ask randomly that question to people. So I'm sticking with Poon. I love Poon. One of the one of the dirty dogs.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 32:57

One of the portions of use and whole fist dock, which I love, is the you know, it's it's it's that reaction. So that's really when you have that sort of reaction, is where you can deliver the use in the whole fist dock line. I'm gonna go with using the whole fist stock.

"Big Bob" West 33:13

Oh boy, what are you gonna do, Bob? Well, why don't you tread carefully? This is this is a tough decision. It's a fist. Uh do I care more about a fist or poon now? Mom, I want you to turn off the podcast because I've always been a poon man.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 33:27

So uh I'm gonna go poon. Well, yes. Oh, damn it. Probably made the right choice. Not an easy choice, but no, not at all.

Jake Parrish 33:34

It's hard.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 33:35

Okay, let's shoot over to the Los Angeles Conference, conference D.

SPEAKER_08 33:40

"Big Bob" West 34:06

Yeah, I yeah, I that's that's that's how psychotic I could be.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 34:10

I I could just you know swing one way or the other. I mean, listen, when you're filling out your bracket, you've got to take chances. Going with the favorites never gets you to the end. Sometimes you gotta upset the people. But here the favorite is just too strong. I'm going with Dr. Rosenrosen.

Jake Parrish 34:25

I will go with Dr. Rosenrosen this time as well. Yeah.

"Big Bob" West 34:28

So sometimes they again you run into uh a tough contender. Uh I'm not sad to see it go, but yeah, Dr. Rosenrosen, tough to beat.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 34:37

Okay, let's now see the opposite matchup in the same conference, which is round two tonight's matchup.

SPEAKER_06 34:47

Oh, for god, dun, dun. Who is it, Mr. Singlenden?

SPEAKER_01 34:51

SPEAKER_01 34:54

It's a beautiful name.

SPEAKER_06 34:55

Well, it's Scotch Romania.

SPEAKER_01 34:56

It's an odd combination.

SPEAKER_06 34:57

SPEAKER_01 34:59

Here's the tip.

unknown 35:00

Four seconds, three, fifteen, hundreds.

Jake Parrish 35:04

I'm gonna go with John Cocto. Okay. Because I know you guys I just I'm gonna be the dark horse here because I I have a feeling I'm not gonna win this one, but I'm going with uh John Cocktyson.

"Big Bob" West 35:16

What's what's the cup what's the other one? I'm sorry. Okay, gosh, John Don. Okay. Uh just because John Coctoas to beat my ass face quote, I'm going with it, got don. Because honestly, again, not not because I have no problem with John Coctoasted, and I just I use that like quote more. Oh for god, don't Mr. Cinneland, and I I use it more in life, so I'm gonna go with uh O forgos don and Laker Jim, it's on you. I agree.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 35:42

I use O for gosh Don Don more regular life, but hang on. I'm going with the iconic John Coctoaster.

"Big Bob" West 35:52

Oh, yes, swerved me, you rotten okay.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 35:58

Cocktoasting. You know what I love? I love Chevy's eyes before he says it. Like she's surprised. Yes, like the way he widens them, and then he's kind of like, you know.

Jake Parrish 36:10

But he nailed it, right?

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 36:11

He did. Absolutely.

Jake Parrish 36:12

He did that confidence. It's all about the confidence.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 36:15

Let's head back to the uh conference C, South American back division. We have a matchup getting ready to start.

SPEAKER_16 36:34

Here's the tip! Four seconds, three, fifty, hundreds.

"Big Bob" West 36:38

Oof, man, we're all gonna have a tough time with this one.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 36:41

I did not want to see these two meet this early in the bracket.

"Big Bob" West 36:44

You know, I'd like to go secret ballot on this one for all three of us, and uh this way we don't know who picked what, but we can't do that. Do you might guys mind if I go first? No, go ahead. All right, I know I've been going first a lot. I just I have to go with that love your body, Larry. And listen, that's not an easy decision because geez, man, I I use the steak sandwich every time I order food. Um but yeah, I gotta go with that love your body Larry.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 37:08

Being a hardcore Fletch fan is sometimes you you you disregard the classic lines because they're the common corny ones that everybody knows, and you you tend to focus more on the obscure, really smart, witty ones that Fletch uses. That's a good point. But in this one, but I'm gonna have to go with Bloody Mary and a steak sandwich. It's just too iconic for me to to pass up, Jake. Jake got a tough decision.

Jake Parrish 37:37

Actually, it's it's not tough at all. It's Bloody Mary and a steak sandwich and a steak sandwich all the way. I mean, like it's not even getting railroaded here. Really? I uh I didn't even think twice about it.

"Big Bob" West 37:49

I want the fans at home listening to this to to weigh on that one.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 37:54

Wow, that sets up a really nice matchup for round three. Uh, but we won't announce that one yet. Because we're gonna head over to the Beach Conference, Conference B, where we have an exciting matchup.

SPEAKER_06 38:11

It's all ball bearings nowadays. Virtually can I borrow your towel for a sec? My car just hit a water buffalo.

SPEAKER_16 38:17

Here's the tip. Four seconds, three fifty.

Jake Parrish 38:20

Oh, I think this is an easy one. Ball bearings probably is going to be in the finals or pretty close to it. So for me, that's easy. Easy call ball bearings. Bob. Yeah, it's all ball bearings.

"Big Bob" West 38:32

Yeah. I can see that being a championship contender. Yeah, we are. I mean, we are the podcast that's all ball bearings.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 38:39

So that's exactly right. Right. Okay, so ball bearings is gonna take a little break and they're gonna watch the next game, which is gonna be who they're gonna match up against.

SPEAKER_08 38:50

Round two night's matchup.

SPEAKER_19 38:54

Sammy, you're not gonna sing for us, are you?

SPEAKER_06 38:58

Traffic with murder. You know, one of those uh manure spitters jackknifed on the Santa Ana. God awful mess. You should see my shoes.

SPEAKER_16 39:04

Here's the tip! Four seconds, three fifty.

"Big Bob" West 39:07

Who wants to do it? Go first. I'm not going first on this one. I'm not going near it. It's on you to go first.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 39:12

What wins it for me here is the you should see my shoes line, which is just so perfectly placed because you're saying it as if they can't look at your shoes. And they're like, wait, what? I mean, that ending line advances them for me. I'm gonna throw my vote to manure truck.

"Big Bob" West 39:32

You want me to go? Yeah. Listen, we we haven't had a lot of luck at the playing quotes. Um my heart is with the manure spreader. But uh Sammy has worked so hard to get where he is. I'm gonna go with Sammy and put it on Jake.

Jake Parrish 39:54

Well, you should see Jake's face. Never mind his shoes. I just I love, man, they're so great scenes, but I'm gonna have to go with manure spreader. Okay, yeah. I just because of that scene, that whole scene is both of them are so good, but I I I love that and just and then I love the Burton Gilliam reaction to you should see my shoes. He's like, yeah, like so. I'm gonna go with with manure spreader on the Santa Ana.

"Big Bob" West 40:25

Sammy has sung his last song in this tournament.

Jake Parrish 40:27

That's all right. That's all right. He made it a lot farther than probably thought. Thank you, Sammy.

SPEAKER_05 40:31

Thank you very much, Sammy. Thank you. I couldn't wait. The Elite Eight, the last stop on the road. Fletch.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 40:40

Boys, we have reached the Elite Eight. The top eight quotes that are remaining are out of Provo, we've got Moon River and No Never Never. Out of Los Angeles, we have Dr. Rosenrosen and John Cockcoat. Out of the South American back division, we have what kind of a name is Moon? I mean Indian. And Bloody Mary and the Steak Sandwich and the Steak Sandwich. Out of the Beach Division, we have its all ball bearings. And the manure spitter that Jack and I found the Santa Ana. Bob, you said it before, there's no rest for the weary. Let's see what these quotes have left and who can make it to the final four. Let's go back to the Provo Conference where we started, where there's a matchup of round three.

SPEAKER_04 41:29

Thank you, Doc.

SPEAKER_00 41:30

Sugar Mr. Poon.

SPEAKER_04 41:32

No, never, never.

unknown 41:34

Thank you.

SPEAKER_00 41:34

Here's the tip fight.

"Big Bob" West 41:37

Oh my god. Oh my god, what have we done? This is brutal. Uh on the hand. Do you want me to go first?

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 41:45

Yeah, I because I don't even know where I'm going here.

"Big Bob" West 41:48

I have got to upset everyone and go no never never. Uh I love Moon River. It's it's it's the one seed for a reason. But again, talk about how much you say the line in your personal life. I can't go a month without saying no never never.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 42:07

And uh yeah, no never never. I think if you picture Fletch in your head, if you just say, think of a scene from Fletch, I think the scene of Fletch bent over the proctology table is what comes into your mind probably nine times out of ten.

"Big Bob" West 42:25

Jake, before you settle this, I want you to remember what you told us earlier. You're have a month ahead of you where you might be might be saying Moon River. Go ahead and tell us what you feel.

Jake Parrish 42:36

I have to go with LJ. I have to go with Moon River because you're right. That and I think the airport scene are probably the two most famous scenes in the movie. And him bent over, like the screen caption with him saying moon. Yeah, I just think everybody remembers that. So I'm going moon river. That wasn't easy. It wasn't easy. That was hard. I'm not making the I'm going first next time because I don't want to be the uh the decision maker on the next one.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 43:05

Yeah, you're right. You've earned that one. Okay, so it's not gonna get much easier for us because we're heading to the South American back conference.

SPEAKER_18 43:18

What kind of a name is Poon?

SPEAKER_06 43:20

Comanche Indian.

SPEAKER_16 43:22

Commercial!

SPEAKER_06 43:22

Yes, very good. I'll have uh Bloody Mary and a steak sandwich and a steak sandwich, please.

SPEAKER_16 43:28

Here's the tip fight.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 43:30

All right, say it again. It's uh what kind of name is Poon, Comanche Indian, versus Bloody Mary, steak sandwich, and a steak sandwich.

Jake Parrish 43:38

I ain't going first. Uh I'll go first. Um boy, this is so tough. It's getting really difficult. I mean, I think I'm perspiring. Um I'm a little vicemped. Um boy, just because I love it so much, and I I'm probably going against the favorite, I'm going to go. Comanche Indian. I I just I know it's probably not as iconic as Bloody Mary Steak Sandwich and a steak sandwich, but again, that line I use so often. I'm gonna go there.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 44:15

Hey, listen, you gotta shoot your shot. Jim, what do you think? I'm gonna go with uh Bloody Mary and a steak sandwich. I think just you know, yes, usability is a very important thing to me, but iconicness, I agree. What seems to pull it through on my end. So I'm going Bloody Mary Steak Sandwich and Steak Sandwich.

Jake Parrish 44:37

I'm glad I don't have to make this.

"Big Bob" West 44:39

I can't so happy. This this is gonna make me look like a crazy person because so far I've been all Comanche Indian, and I didn't even vote for steak sandwich last round. But when you put two quotes right next to each other, uh two B's, um, I have to actually go with steak sandwich. Wow, I thought you were going Poon. Yeah, I I thought I was too. And and again, so far I bet on Poon. And I did not bet on steak sandwich last round.

Jake Parrish 45:06

Apparently, you don't like Poon that much.

"Big Bob" West 45:08

See ya when my stomach is more than my uh my other appetite.

Jake Parrish 45:18

Oh my gosh, Poon is gone. Poon came in with a matchup and whack.

"Big Bob" West 45:23

Yeah, okay. I love this, I love a good steak sandwich, and a second one really hits the spot.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 45:28

Yeah, guys. Let's take a look at the conf the Los Angeles conference, conference D. We analyze a matchup of aliases. Round three.

SPEAKER_06 45:37

John Cocktoast. Oh, it's me, Dr. Rosen Penis.

SPEAKER_16 45:41

Here's the camp. Right.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 45:45

Hmm. Silence. I think I for me this is easy. Actually, for me, this is easy too. For as deep uh into the into the tournament as we are, this one is easier than it should be. Yeah, because you guys are going, you guys are going Rosenrosen, right?

"Big Bob" West 45:59

It's Dr. Rosen.

Jake Parrish 46:00

I'm going cocktoason. Oh my god! He's going cocktoasting. So now it's back up to Bob again because crap. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but I I I love how he delivers it.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 46:14

I actually looked over at Jake's paper and I thought I saw Rosenrosen written down, but it was cocktocin.

"Big Bob" West 46:19

Damn it. Okay, Bob. There's a quote that's left off of this quote, madness, and it's uh where the hell is the records room? But it's oh that's a great line, too. Yeah, it's left, it's left off because everybody knows, you know, when you're Rosenrosing it up, you're you're looking for the records room. So I'm gonna go Rosenrosen. Coctozen's been a thorn on my side this whole tournament. Rosenrosen it is. Sorry, John. All right, Dr.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 46:44

Rosenrosen has advanced to the final four.

Jake Parrish 46:48

I cannot believe that line is in the final four. I'm just I'm shocked.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 46:52

Crazy things happen around here. Okay, now we have an exciting matchup in the beach conference.

SPEAKER_06 46:59

It's all ball bearings nowadays. You know, one of those uh manure spitters jackknifed on the Santa Ana, god awful mess. You should see my shoes.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 47:08

Here's the tip is the manure spitter, who has sort of been a little bit of a dark horse, has really battled battled its way into the final eight. Let's see if we can take it into the final four.

"Big Bob" West 47:21

And and these quotes are gonna fight it out in the airplane hangar. That's right. Bum. Should be. Yep, you're first. Oh man. Uh, I think I have to go with the ball bearings. What are you thinking?

Jake Parrish 47:35

Yeah, I'm ball bearings all the way.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 47:37

Yeah, for me too.

Jake Parrish 47:37

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 47:40

SPEAKER_02 48:06

Rosenrosen, I'm here to get some records from it's Dr. Rosen. Here's the depth point.

Jake Parrish 48:12

Well, that I'll start because it's this is easy for me. Because I haven't been a Rosenrosen fan since the beginning, so I'm going Moon River.

"Big Bob" West 48:22

Oh, Licker Jim, it's on you. I'm going Rosenrosen.

Jake Parrish 48:26

I knew it. I knew you would go Rosenrosen.

"Big Bob" West 48:28

That's why I knew I went first. I'm not going to be the one that has to choose this.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 48:33

We have our first team in the final championship round, and that is Moon River.

Jake Parrish 48:40

Moon River. I knew it. I knew it. Oh boy, I lost Moon River.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 48:46

Yeah, I mean, listen, it's just the more iconic. I mean, listen, they're both iconic parts, they're both iconic scenes. Chevy and the scrubs.

"Big Bob" West 48:55

How about on the count of three? We do uh uh three of us all together moon river.

unknown 48:59

All right.

"Big Bob" West 48:59

How do you guys feel about that? Okay, I'm ready. I'm done. One, two, three. Moon River. You got it.

SPEAKER_15 49:08

Reason.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 49:10

Perfect. Perfect. All right. The other two teams left, which are round four.

SPEAKER_06 49:16

It's all ball bearings nowadays. Yes, very good. I'll have uh Bloody Mary and a steak sandwich and a steak sandwich, please.

SPEAKER_16 49:24

Here's the tip point.

"Big Bob" West 49:26

And what are the two conferences that these two are playing out of?

Jake Parrish 49:29

Oh, yeah, good question.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 49:30

Well, Bloody Mary is coming out of the South American back conference. The all ball bearings is coming out of the beach conference.

Jake Parrish 49:38

Okay.

"Big Bob" West 49:39

Oh boy. Who's going first? Who's going first? I'll go. I'll go first here. Uh it's all ball bearings, is is the quote for me. I I I love obviously I voted it. You know, I I love uh steak sandwich, but but it's all this podcast is all ball bearings, and and I think that that's gonna be the the best possible contender to go against. Number one seed, Moon River.

Jake Parrish 50:03

I I have to go ball bearings too. Um it's just something that we use all the time. I mean, I just I I think it's it definitely has its place. I think it has the right to be in the championship.

"Laker Jim" James Kanowitz 50:15

Absolutely. These two quotes are titans, but it's all ball bearings.

"Big Bob" West 50:19

It's gonna advance the championship. You know, and and and we could have foreseen that these two quotes would be in the Chick Hern Memorial Fletchcast quote championship.

Jake Parrish 50:30

Oh my gosh. Now, how are we gonna do this championship?
