I’m going to start doing a thing where I color code lines for specific reasons, for instance green and bolded lines will the ones that I cherry pick interesting stuff for Brett to use (or ignore, I don’t care) in Talkin’ Banter so he doesn’t have to swim through 5 pages of random chatter. Lines that are the same color (color will vary) are conversations that are linked together somehow. I’m doing this because Stee likes to jump around from topic to topic when he’s talking, so this will be an effort to stitch together some kind of continuity in the notes. 00:23 – Steve says Mike is a busy boy, so he’s not around for this week’s podcast. Chelsea Dunaway is the super secret guest host. 01:55 – Steve says Chelsea was on Cloverfeels. Chelsea insinuates that her episode of Cloverfeels was a dumpster fire. 02:54 – Cloverfeels is still a thing in the grand scheme of things according to Steve, but there hasn’t been any new Cloverfield news to talk about. 03:15 – Steve asks Chelsea if she heard what happened with the 10 Cloverfield Lane Twitter account. Let’s see how long it takes him to circle back around to answer. 04:30 – Chelsea is coming in via Satellite from New York City. Steve tries to goad Chelsea into moving to L.A. and then makes her feel bad about herself and her career on purpose. 06:55 – There was a Mean Girls Day on Twitter. The Mayor of Earth demanded it and Twitter was forced to comply because of an intergalactic decree put forth by the Council of Planets that no sitting Terestrial Mayor ever be ousted, or jousted for that matter. 08:45 – Steve says that Mike is the one who names the podcast, and that Steve has only ever named 2 of them, but doesn’t go into details about which two those are. 09:08 – Steve suggests the genius idea of having Mike Falzone on as a guest of Dynamic Banter. 10:00 – Steve thinks that Dynamic Banter: The Mayor of Earth is prime click bait that is sure to bring in a round of boys for the guys. 10:45 – Steve wants to start a petition online to become the Mayor of Earth, but balks at the responsibilities that would come along with the office. 11:58 – Steve is triggered by the word Gala. 12:20 – Steve claims that he brings up mayor bits because they’re funny. We’ll be the judge of that. 12:47 – Chelsea misses Mike. Steve says that the show doesn’t work without Mike and he wishes Chelsea wasn’t there. 15:00 – Steve mentions the Mayor of TV, the Mayor of Movies, and then suggests that a Mayor of Hollywood would be awesome, forgetting that Hollywood is a real place and already has a system of governance in place. 15:15 – Steve asks Chelsea if she’s ever heard of a town in California called Idlewild. 15:45 – Bree is a musical boy, and Steve is jealous that she went to a musical school in Idlewild. 16:40 – Steve wants to make a band called Post Modern Juicebox that covers old timey children’s music like Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. 17:20 – Bree and Steve like to escape to cabins in Idlewild, where he writes things like Lizard Wizard. He hates that the media is talking about Idlewild because of American Idol. 19:00 – The California town of Idlewild has a town dog named Mayor Max. Steve says they have to replace him, because Dogs die, but Chelsea mishears him and is mortified – she thinks that they flush the dog down the toilet and replace it every 12 years or so. 20:30 – Steve wants the Mayor of Movies to be like Siskel & Ebert. He goes on to describe wanting to be a literal movie critic, but under the pen name of Mayor of Movies. 21:54 – Steve plays the Gene Shalot review of the movie Face Off. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZ1XtRivqVY 22:28 – Steve is a sad boy because Gene Shalot died in a tragic boat smashums incident. 25:00 – Steve wants to take back the phrase “Smash Up”. He wants it to mean that we went to fucking town. We had a real fuckin fuck time. Chelsea thinks that a Smash Up should denote a threesome. 26:51 – 10 Cloverfield Lane tweeted out Happy Mean Girls day and Steve thinks it was ridiculous. Chelsea reads all of our minds and responds, “…That was it?” 27:15 – Chelsea thinks an Intern fucked up and didn’t switch Twitter accounts, or that the Mean Girls tweet is in game. 28:00 – Owen, conforming to history, refuses to hop on a mic at Steve’s request again. Owen ignores Chelsea’s greeting. Owen apparently has a new way of communicating with Steve on the podcast but he doesn’t go into what it is. Texting? 29:26 – Boat smashums. (Shirt idea: Cloverfield monster with a boat in each hand smashing them together like a leel boy playing with action figures.) 29:43 – Chelsea suggests that they call Bob Odenkirk. 30:20 – Chelsea takes “2 minutes of staring into a vagina” style umbrage in the fact that Steve has best friends on the East and West coasts concurrently. 31:30 – Owen is Steve’s best friend by proxy. 33:20 – Steve asks Chelsea if she remembers their meet cute. Chelsea asks Steve if he knows what their meet cute is, implying that she knows but Steve doesn’t, but then Steve doesn’t know, which exposes Chelsea as a fucking liar because she doesn’t know either. 34:00 – Steve talks about Chelsea working at Sony. It is a completely compelling story about co-workers in a corporate environment that probably still don’t work there and nobody cares about. 36:22 – Juicy Steve is a thing according to Chelsea. Some guy named Brian coined the nickname. kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkLlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’ Sorry, fell asleep on my keyboard. Gotta get a leel caffeine going here. It’s weird because this conversation is so exciting that it should be acting like verbal caffeine. Let’s get back into talking about co-workers from So ‘’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllLkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk 39:41 – Steve recalls the actual Chelsea and Steve meet cute that revolved around a Cloverfield toy. Chelsea worked at the Cloverfield ARG. Steve had a Slusho Cup and Chelsea had a Slusho Hoodie. 41:00 – Steve sarcastically claims this to be a great podcast. Chealsea thinks everyone is asleep. (I’d rank it #2 all time right behind Bees.) 44:15 – Steve and Chelsea wrote a bunch of fun stuff together that one day they’ll turn into something. 44:35 – Steve recalls the Science of Chimpanzees debacle. Chelsea wrote the song, but Steve redid it without her vocals and didn’t credit her on his Soundcloud. https://soundcloud.com/zaragozatunes/the-science-of-chimpanzees 48:25 – Chelsea was angry that Steve took her song and didn’t give her credit for it. She then realized that Steve posted a tweet that did give her credit. 48:50 – Steve seems surprised that Chelsea, a woman, was upset about nothing. (As a married guy, I thought his inflection was fucking hilarious.) 50:20 – Steve asks Chelsea to share some of the fun stuff they’ve created together. She shares only one before a tangent carries them off. Vom Vom: To vomit on someone as a surprise joke. 51:25 – Right after Chelsea mentions Vom Vom and vomit, Steve says that he has emetophobia. Chelsea completely ignores the crystal clear context and the “phobia” suffix and asks what it is. 52:00 – Steve has a weird reaction to people vomiting, where he immediately runs to the closest backpack and begins to rifle through it for nothing in particular. 52:50 – Steve is afraid that people will send him vomit videos because he admits to having emetophobia, but he is safe because everyone is still asleep after the Sony talk. 53:00 – Steve thinks people are afraid of talking about their mental health issues because of what people will think. He is somewhere between thinking that he should talk about it because of mental health awareness, and not talking about it because it’s not really anyone’s business. 54:50 – Chelsea finds that talking about her anxieties is helpful. 56:00 – Steve talks about how the human brain processes the human experience. Chelsea doesn’t like calling anxiety a disorder. 58:30 – Steve talks about the Internet opening humanity up the idea of accepting the many various differences in people. 01:00:00 – Steve thinks that Dynamic Banter can be about animal abuse, thoughtless human breeding, and shrimp being bad for you without fear of retribution from an audience starved of the comedy they were promised; the comedy they demanded! 01:01:00 – Chelsea brings up trypophobia, which is the fear of leel holes. Steve gets a tingle in his pants when he thinks about leel holes. 01:05:00 – Steve assumes that Chelsea doesn’t listen to the podcast and explains what History Road is. Chelsea lets him finish, and then tells him that she listens and know what History Road is. It is a leel bit awkward for a second there. 01:06:00 – Steve mentions www.dynamicbanter.com and that it was created by some nerd from the Internet. 01:07:28 – Steve plays a history road from.. MY dimension.. and seems to be super confused by its carefully constructed premise. http://dynamicbanter.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Bantering-About-Banter-The-First-Time.mp3 01:08:23 – Steve pauses right before the clip gets to the funny, which scared me because I thought he hadn’t vetted it and was playing it blind because that’s 100% something Stee would do. I thought he was about to stop playing it there because it starts off really dry. He keeps playing it though. 01:13:30 – Steve says nice things about me. Feelsgoodman. Chelsea thought it was funny, but it also worried her. This also Feelsgoodman. 01:14:00 – Steve thinks Chelsea is the best for helping to dig the hole that Mike Falzone is stuck in somewhere. 01:15:00 – Steve will be a place on Sunday, October 9th that I’m not paying attention to fully because I live in North Carolina and Talkin’ Banter won’t be out until October 12th (God willing) so it doesn’t matter. 01:15:30 – Steve confirms that if you go to his shows, he will tell you what happened to Ross at SourceFed. TL;DR He says the stories in the sub-reddit are mostly true. 01:17:55 – Steve asks if Chelsea has anything to plug, insinuating that she is a trash person with no creative balls in the air. All of the balls are gathering dust on the floor of a meth lab in the basement of a rent controlled apartment in New York City. 01:19:10 – Chelsea thinks that don’t like it when you scream adorable things in their face. My experiences with every dog in my life prove this to be false. 01:21:20 – Boat Smashums.
