The Worst Idea Of All Time

Imagine if Adam Sandler made a movie simply to try and get two friends back together. Imagine if Rob Schneider was one of those guys. And now imagine that the movie doesn’t totally suck. The movie you’ve just created in your head is Dennis Dugan’s 2006 Sports Comedy: The Benchwarmers. A heartwarming tale featuring Schneider, in a rare cinematic move for him, as a straight man against Napoleon Dynamite’s Jon Heder and the people’s champion David Spade. The boiz did not hate this one. In fact, it’s not only a serviceable comedy movie that gives millennials...

Let’s discuss the nature of time - a topic that permeates the near decade and a half history of this god forsaken podcast series. Tim and Guy are talking about YouTube, Guy’s hair and most importantly they’re back in the mailbag exploring how different municipalities experience time and briefly, how the luddites might be back (hooray)! Huge shout out to our mate's series Bryn and Kura’s Singles Club

It’s time to take a rocket into the Sandler-system and visit one of Planet Rob’s moons. Specifically Daddy Daughter Trip. This is a 2022 ‘comedy’ written by Rob’s friend Jamie Lissow and Rob’s (now) ex-wife Patricia, directed by Rob and starring Rob and Rob’s daughter. Somewhat bafflingly, John Clesse is in this movie, as is Michael Bublé. 

This film is described (by Rob) as a love letter to Arizona, so we’ll leave it to film critic Bill Goodykoontz of The Arizona Republic to sum it up:

Tim and Guy are back on the airwaves that are these internet signals and boy do they have some news to share. You'd think it was the erotica that Tim has written about himself and Guy, however, it is not. It's actually about what's next for The Worst Idea of All Time. Promises made, promises promised to be kept...

Broox - a milk guzzler with a billionaire Hydra idea that involves super glue, de facto relationship law (or lack thereof) in the state of California and... Love? Mehdi - a man who will let the pronunciation of his name slide bringing an interdimensional ploy involving the infamous Skinwalker Ranch. And Samantha - a tech-cursed competitor who wants Bezos and Musk to get in some subs and hunt for treasure (and die). This is final competitor episode of Killionaire TV so enjoy these brilliant plans and may God protect our billionaires, long enough to see them become trillionaires and...

Guy is choosing an exciting animal scale and this episode's Killionaires are picking exciting new ways to enrich and then off some of the wealthy humans on the planet. Bradney's combined the time-honoured elements of raffle tickets, space travel and David Hasselhoff. For her part, Jo has finally recognised Guy and Tim as the pioneers they are and wants to use that to draw Bezos into an intergalactic trap. Who will win? We know, but you don't so listen to join us in our knowledge camp.

Julian is a competitor who has been lubricating the ole brain box and is currently hosting a dinner party while he pitches a new TV show. Meanwhile, Ryan is very sober (even more so comparatively) and wants Guy to start a consultancy in Las Vegas that's got bit to do with jet propulsion and a little to do with dick-shaped objects and a lot to do with Werner Herzog. But there's a twist and you're going to need to check out the full episode to find out what!

Dana and Ben are two competitors who are operating on a very similar frequency and it’s a very fun one. Speaking of frequencies, we got some great voices on this episode to boot. Corporate personhood, weaponising helicopters, a human centipede situation and the disillusion of marriage are all coming together to form a perfect storm of trillionaire murder plots in this very exciting episode of Killionaire TV.

In our most recent, exciting episode of Killionaire TV - we’re looking at a plot involving none other than 2000’s sporting icon Lance ‘Livestrong’ Armstrong.

Meanwhile, Rose presents a compelling plan of mentorship, lotteries and… a hammer, I guess? Who will win? Who farted? Only one way to find out!

We are back! The Frosty Fellaz are joined by Jamie who hails from "by London" and has a dating app that will target Jeff Bezos and hit him where it hurts. Stephanie beams in from the equally non-specific "outside Boston" with a diabolical scam (and props) built around the old timey appeal of a charity fair dunk tank. Yes again but this one is different!

In this thrilling episode of Killionare TV, we have Harley who is leading the charge on Operation DRUG BUTT - a strategy featuring an incredible product named 'Thicc Biscc' and a twist - A HUGE TWIST! Meanwhile Crum has donned his network executive tuxedo to pitch one of the most power television ideas anyone has ever heard. They'll be a lot of dancing, they'll be a lot of meowing.

A battle between Old School Simplicity and High-end, High-production Value Showbusiness Showmanship.

Welcome to Killionaire TV: Episode Three, with two contestants and one goal: End the life of a trillionaire. Our contestants today are Mack from the UK who’s political ambitions are matched only by his lack of preparation for his pitch. In stark contrast, we have Shortney, an American who brings a meticulously planned plot involving a lot of math, a gold pyramid tomb and a plucky entrepreneur named Mark Elliot Zuckerberg.

New Zealand's own Dylan joins us with a thick kiwi accent to propose using the power of boats, French accents and the power of love to bring Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk to a tragic ending.

Welcome to the first episode of Killionaire TV. An exciting new fundraising and elimination project created by the people, for the people, in the interest of making the very same people, as wealthy as each other.

In our first episode Lexi joins us from Ireland to pitch us about an artificial intelligence torture chamber with Mark Zuckerberg’s name all over it. We then hear from Joe in Nottingham, who proposes assuming commercial ownership of the Amazon rainforest and harvesting the power of the monkeys contained therein, to show Jeff Bezos the time of his life.

How large are the fellaz living? Somewhere between medium and large. Fitting, because Tim's got a hot new t-shirt from TWIOAT alumni, Nick from Prawn Salad (S01E29). We hear from our friends who have engaged with the Worst Idea cut of Joker 2 and we hear Guy unravel when Tim affirms his ability to decide whether or not he will watch the movie again. We also dig into reddit/r/TWIOAT to find out what's happening with Rob Schneider. He's not doing well, folks!

Guy and Tim are BACK after a far longer absence than you may know. United in the bounds of fatherhood in a post-Joker 2 haze, your brave boiz are swapping stories of writers who insist on writing stories about writers, Guy's upcoming gig hosting a comedy show headlined by Tiffany Haddish, and Tim being on lots of drugs. Most crucially though, this is an opportunity to get another Hall of Famer piece of mail from the Great and Wise Chris Marlton.

Tim and Guy have watched Joker 2 for the 14th time over the last 4 days. No external stimulus - both clad with noise cancelling earbuds. Now is a time for reflection. For gratitude to those who’ve helped us get here. An opportunity for Corrections and Amendments, not just for the boiz but for the movie as well. We also hear from Dr Suzie, a brave fan of the movie who has already walked this path and has a support and advice for the fellaz.

The finish line is in sight and the boys are very ready to drag themselves across it. The hangover from last night’s huge revelation is real. Wearing their exhaustion on their sleeve, Tim is talking a BIG GAME about his experiment with showing the Hollywood and Worst Idea cuts of Joker 2 to an unspoiled audience. Guy is reminiscing about previous altered states the boiz have experienced. And all the time while there is one truth that remains constant: You CANNOT defeat this pair.

Guy has fixed the movie and all it took was 4 watches of Joker 2 in one day. “It is a fantastic movie” - real quote from a man who has now seen Joker 2 a dozen times inside the last 4 days. Tim is giddy with excitement about the discovery and kindly requests that you give this revelation the respect it deserves. Stop what you’re doing - Listen to what the boiz have to say, because they just figured out how to fix Joker 2.

It’s the 3rd watch of the day, and the 11th watch over all so far and the bys re wearing thin. Guy is trying to figure out whether it matter if Joker 2’s director, Todd Phillips made a bad film intentionally or not. Tim believes the movie may be talking to him. You’ll want to catch this one for a special announcement of a project-related task the boys will be engaged in immediately after this episode recorded.

Dr Abby Howells, PhD (whose doctoral thesis is fittingly 'Performing prison: How is life on the inside portrayed to the outside world?') joins Tim and Guy to praise Joker 2 for one reason only: "It is not as racist as prison movies typically are." Apart from this silver lining, there's a lot of critical clouds on the horizon of Folie à deux - a fact that will shock anyone who's listened to other episodes of this series. More importantly though - we get to know about Abby's portrayal as the Cowardly Lion and the history of the worst play of a...

Get ready for a completely earnest discussion about the movie Joker: Folie à Deux cause these guys have lost it. Tim’s review of this watch? “I miss my family and I want to leave.” Guy’s feelings on critics who aren’t down at The Classic with them watching this film? Frauds. Tim pontificates on what Chris Nolan would have to say to Todd Phillips, Guy believes Todd has left breadcrumbs in the movie to show his appreciation of Always Sunny and Arrested Development and both of our boiz wonder about these inmates’ piss buckets.

Good news - you ca...

The Male Gayz’ Eli Matthewson and Chris Parker join Guy and Tim in the rats nest they have created in The Classic comedy club in central Auckland to enjoy Joker 2 again, having been incredibly disappointed by Folie à Deux when they saw it at the NZ premiere upon its initial release. The quad discuss how the film should be compared to Mama Mia, how Joaquin dreamed the concept into being and dig into the truly grim reality of this season for the boiz.

We've got it all - running water in the urinal, personal agency and a 7th watch of Joker 2. Tim and Guy examine the brutal reality of the seven times at the trough. Stuffed, so completely, with Joker 2.

Monty is steadfast in his belief that he simply will not be bossed around by this movie, and breaks down (with the detail and vocabulary of a decades-long sports commentator) the back and forth of the boiz' latest fight. Guyguy also puts up a spirited defence of Steve Coogan's performance within the context of the borderline impossible acting job...

Coming to you from the sleeping bags they just spent the night in, inside the comedy club they currently live in - Guy and Tim are picking apart the financial performance of Joker 2 and the incredible reaction of Todd Phillips upon release of the film. Tim tries (to limited avail) to tie the trajectory of the watches to Elisabeth Kübler-Ross’ five stages of grief. Guy poses the question: Who are the fans of this movie?

It has been three weeks, and in some ways five weeks. And in some other ways, it has simply been one day for Tim and Guy watching Joker: Folie à Deux. A damaged Lithium Ion battery pack has become a ticking potential timebomb threatening to destroy The Classic (Tim and Guy's current abode) adding beautiful background tension to this episode. The very definition of a joke is picked apart for a very long time after this 5th watch of the movie.

Guy and Tim are truly ON ONE. Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber is outted as a common plagiarist. Todd Phillips is recognised as being VERY IMPORTANT to the making of Joker 2. And also, it is Monday! Now imagine this: What if this movie was made for just one person? And what if that person was a certain Canadian physiologist who almost killed himself going on an all meat diet? There truly is a lot to consider when you’ve got a brain full of Joker: Folie à Deux.

We are joined by writer, comedian and (semi) qualified clown Johanna Cosgrove for our third watch, on day two of our grand experiment. Johanna, Guy and Tim run an intense discussion on the musical genre in film, the competing Parisian clown schools and of exactly what Lady Gaga is doing in this movie. Also this episode, we introduce Tim’s eye stye!

Tim and Guy are up against it. It's only the second watch and Guy fears the pair are in too deep a water already. That is a scary prospect for two men looking down the barrel of 12 more watches in just 4 short days. Let us gaze upon the beautiful cinematography and excellent acting of Joker 2 and marvel at how it stills somehow manages to be a really stinky film. Tim offers advice for his friends in the MRA community and swears to all Holy powers above that David Bowie most probably played The Sims.

It’s the first watch and it’s also the most elastic experience of time Guy Montgomery has ever had while sober. Tim is terrified of what has the pair have signed themselves up to for this season upon now seeing the film. Recounting the plot is a seemingly impossible task. This film releasing in cinemas seems, in retrospect, like an impossible outcome. But the inescapable truth is: Movie come out - something need happen.

Guy and Tim are watching Sex and The City 2 for the second to last time EVER! It's an exciting time, producing a surprisingly low energy episode. Beaten and battle-worn, the lads have allowed the Sandlerverse to pop its head back into the fold and Guy has an insane theory about what background characters on the phone are doing.
