Stanger's take on owning a bird made me bust out laughing at work like a crazy person.

Stanger's Stache

U wot m8? They absolutely do still talk about the movies.

Antti

Kyle Riley

he said he'll go over in the next one to make up for it

Ain’t no shines likes a monkey shines

Oldmancoyoteface

My dog somehow looks like a capuchin monkey, meerkat, and whitetail deer, while essentially appearing as a miniature German shepherd. So obviously I’m on the monkey’s side immediately.

Dragonhardt

Romero strikes again, is this the greatest action boyz sex scene?

Michael Quinn

Stanger, I worked with a guy at an alfalfa plant who called it the “monkey nose”

Ray Ray

In Russia, Gabrus pays you

Cromsicle

We saw that, but it was a bad dream he was having while coming to in the hospital..

Cromsicle

Whoa I'll have to check this out. Used to love that Magic Tavern...

Cromsicle

Ryno was probably too busy drowning in monkey mouth to even realize 9/11 happened

From Parts Unknown

Hate to say it, but I agree with Baloney George

From Parts Unknown

That helper monkey bit off her finger

Return of the junkie monkey

"you're like a performance animal....I meant like, physical performance, but yeah, you could do some dressage."

Lando Mo

or Reanimator (fingers crossed for Oktooky)

Lando Mo

Apropos of whatever, it was cool to hear Gabrus on Hello From The Magic Tavern. Haven't listened in a couple years but had to check out what Delta Force operator Clint "Clit" "Lint" Howard was up to.

Brash Tracks

As soon as Stanger announced he was leaving early I shut the pod down.

Haunted Screen

Did no one else get the version where the monkey pops out of his back after surgery?!?!

Garfield Compton

When you cover a movie that How Did This Get Made? covered years ago, it always saves me a streaming fee.

Nathan Rodriguez

If you pronounce 3 as 'free', you might be British

Chabnormal

Loved it, scared me more retroactively

Vic

I just watched “Phenomena” with Jennifer Connolly and there is an important primate helper character. I was actually thinking “I’d like to see a movie just about that helper monkey” so this hit nicely 🐵

Cromsicle

I loved this movie I had never seen it

Cromsicle

Hell yeah

Will See

Better cunnilingus scene: Monkey Shines or The Hitman (Grogan)?

Paul

PITTSBURGH show please! Yinz should play Bottlerocket Social Hall. Saw Pally there earlier this year. Good folks and perfect venue for ABZ. Reach out to Chris: Chris@BottlerocketPgh.com

Bokito Boy

did you like the movie Nope?

bloodflart

My photo is of me and a baby orangutan. Tropicana hotel and casino, maybe 1996. Insane

Vic

And here i am thinking I was special for my sophomore math teacher thinking I was gonna be a school shooter for being an openly atheist metalhead, lol. My mom fucking freaked on this idiot. This was around 03, so it was still fresh on the mind, I'll give him that.

meatlazer1

I think the shitty fake beard on Jim Carrey is the opening of Dumb and Dumber To and the catheter scene.

Paul Perez

Pretty sure Dinks is racist, they say it a lot in platoon

Baloney George

Might as well add baboon movie Shakma (1990) to Monkey March, too

Thatguy

Dumb and Dumberer. In the asylum when Harry comes to see him. He has a huge beard and long nails.

Chabnormal

All this chimp talk is boring… I got a baby silver back… and ahhhhh!

Thomas

I was positive this was a King short story The vhs cover kind of looks like a book?

Crazy coincidence— just finished my workout with 4x20 monkey shakes

This must be one of those weird parasocial listener things, but I was immediately happy for Stanger when I realized it’s a monkey movie this week.

Wadi

You can get scared by ghouls and scarred by golf balls.

Chabnormal

Yeah they were very freaked out, we joke about it now

Shaun Anderson

the doctor was right

bloodflart

For years, I confused ‘Monkey Shines’ and Stephen King’s “The Monkey”/‘Skeleton Crew’ because they both used similar monkey toys on their covers.

Frank Kimball

PSA: Charlie McCrackin brought SFPD Inspector Jack Cates back to CBB and he’s only got 48 hours to find Ganz!!!

Madeyouread

How much do I have to pay Gabrus to come over and swim in my pool while my wife grills and I watch from the upstairs window?

Swimfan69

Maybe when you're older, kid.

Adam Lewis

Fuck yeah give me more discussion about Powell and Pressburger I just discovered them!

Alex Elani

I had a spinal tap when I was only a few days old! When my parents asked the doctor if I would make it he very bluntly said “Probably not” 😂 but here I am 39 years later!

Shaun Anderson

Crap I watched Monkey Bone

bloodflart

This comes from the childhood fear of your mom walking into your room when you're jerkin off

bloodflart

I just checked and my Chinese zodiac animal is Tiger. Result!

Keith Jarrett

I was watching some of cal football game this weekend and, of course, I thought of Stanger, so I went on college football reference to see his stats and found it funny his only college TD happened 3 days before 9/11.

My first job when I was 15 years old was at our local video rental place and I’ll admit that the poster for this movie scared the absolute shit out of me, to the point that I never watched it. Seeing it now for the first time some 30 years later, I realize that fear was entirely unfounded.

Jim

I think I found a Shadow Wolves intro you guys can do. It’s a Monday Night Football intro with a Dan Marino in Ace Ventura theme. It’s not completely off topic to this episode. I think the monkey here they wrangled is the same monkey from Monkey Shines. https://youtu.be/XYiqIhkv8WQ the whole game is here if this intro got you pumped to watch the actual game. https://youtu.be/HfV20--LKAM

Don Knott Steiner

This is why the loyal fans should push for “Monkey March”, or because the kids are out of school, “Monkey May”.

Don Knott Steiner

Sleep paralysis was called "old hag syndrome" before it was medically diagnosed because so many people would report seeing a scary old lady or witch in their room.

Bralynn Bell

The reason I love this show is because I’ll press play, excited to hear about Monkey Shines and the boyz talk about the Choco-Bot hour from the Mojo episode of The Simpsons.

Bluvbot

Is the title a pun, as in, are monkey "shines" supposed to be psychic links like the "shining" in the Stephen King legendarium?

Data Janitor

Is older black woman in a head wrap looking through a porthole an acceptable costume for the live show on Long Island?

David D.

oh and is Janine Turner the hottest person to walk the face of the earth? Mama mia, papa pia, baby going diarrhea! Awooga, etc!

David McElroy

Haven't listened to Ep yet but, having seen this years ago, this 2nd watch was a slogggg. I kinda kept waiting for the inevitable to happen, and boy does it take a while for ANYTHING to happen (post-brick-shatter). But, kudos for the interesting sex scene.

David McElroy

Do Link (1986) next 🙏 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091415/?ref_=ext_shr

The Buffmaster

This movie is an absolute delight. It's not a good movie, but at the same time, it's a great movie experience, like most of the non-Dead Romero films. And it does have some actual pathos. Also, Root and Tucci in the same movie.

Adam Kronfeld

consensual embracing

Big Junior

"Golf themed haunted house on old golf course" is genius.

Bring me the Head of Warren Oates

When it comes to monkey/monkey adjacent movies, you shoulda done SHAKMAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dL3hX1VtgFw
