TL;DR

Manu streams Jokers Wild VPX with gameplay showcase and community chat.

Summary

Manu Smith from Mystery Pinball Theater 3000 streams gameplay of Jokers Wild (Williams 1988) in VPX, showcasing the game's mechanics including the back glass spinning card hand wheel, multi-level playfield, and a game-breaking double-score mechanic triggered by hitting both ramps on the final ball. The stream includes discussion of Nailbuster's VR Pinup Popper system development, mentions of recent appearances at Scorbit HQ and interactions with various pinball community figures, and casual banter with chat participants.

Key Claims

  • Jokers Wild has a game-breaking mechanic where hitting both ramps on the last ball doubles your score

    high confidence · Manu explicitly identifies this as a problem mechanic and demonstrates it during gameplay, noting it's 'insane' and 'not good' and expressing hope there's a tournament mode that turns it off

  • Nailbuster is developing a VR version of Pinup Popper that allows custom VR room creation and game launching within those environments

    high confidence · Manu shows video footage of the VR implementation and discusses its functionality, including customizable rooms, instruction cards, and media placement

    high confidence · Manu describes the layout during gameplay: 'this table has two levels... there's this level up here that's raised off the playfield, and then there's all this stuff down here'

  • The back glass of Jokers Wild features a spinning wheel showing different poker hands (flush, straight, etc.)

    high confidence · Manu observes: 'the hand of cards in the King's hand is actually a wheel that spins and it shows different hands... he's holding a flush. No, he's holding a straight'

  • Jay from Scorbit and his children build the Scorbitron machines

    medium confidence · Manu mentions: 'his kids actually build the Scorbits, the Scorbitrons' and met 'Ben and Lisa' during a visit

3:14
We were playing. So, Krantz, we were at Scorbit, at actual Scorbit HQ. You can check the vibe. It's on my channel.
3:23
And we were playing Wonka, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory by Jersey Jack because it has integrated score a bit uh uh scoring and integration and stuff and uh oh was it you yeah weird flex but okay that's because daddy couldn't show up because daddy was watching the kids that's because i couldn't show up you wait you wait till i get in there on a free gold cup man. Just wait. You just wait. And then continue to wait because I'm not saying I'm going to win. I'm just saying just wait. It's just factual. I'm not trying to say anything.
4:08
How does this thing work? Jeez. Frack me. Wait, hold up. so we're yeah real smooth oh i'm drinking out the wrong side wait so what's locked and what's open okay there we go yeah i do have a drinking problem oh my god so if you guys check out the vod on monday it was pretty sick and like in the last half hour Joe Hills raided us with 135 people And we had a lovely conversation I wouldn't say conversation I'd say argument about Black Eyed Peas And Stevie Wonder again Don't panic flip Very questionable Let's say musical tastes Very questionable Learn how to use a coffee cup Thank you That's right I did That's right Alright hot hot okay we're playing some jokers by the way i want to look at something real quick you guys saw it already when i was over in the this is pretty cool i'm really anticipating this from nail buster um pin bot open internet yes that yes is so positive this is i'm excited about this this is where we are right now with nail buster's new project which is uh his pinup popper system you know the front end for virtual pinball that's what i have on my machine currently and he's building it so you can do it in vr this is a vr headset i don't know which headset it doesn't really matter this is vp v vp vr and it's running pinup popper selectable tables with animations on the wheels this is pretty baller man this is amazing wow so i'm looking forward to this yeah it looks like yeah dandy yeah oh that's well that's that that doesn't look quite right oh i i see it's a curved it's a curved like t-bar it's a curved and he's got animations running in there look at that oh i never noticed that he's in the steam like weird box oh wow oh he just launched it yes so now he's actually playing the game oh my god so does this mean you launch the game in a VR room? So you're in a room with... Oh, man!
7:08
Oh, man! That is awesome. I'm going to fast forward a little bit. That would be... I would love that. So you could define your own VR room and then launch your games in that room. Oh, wow, look at this. He can look around the room.
7:26
Oh, my God. no way he's gonna play uh air hockey see that's nail buster he goes like i'm this good and i'm this good plus holy smokes so it's pretty cool yeah same functionality as a regular popper just in vr but i'll take it because it's impossible right now all right i think we're good i think it's almost done it's impossible right now to get from one game to another pin bot close internet sure it's really hard to get from one game to another uh in vr you have to kind of devote yourself to that one game for a while um let's see what did i miss because i was busy looking at the thing reality those thermal coffee tumblers are great at keeping cold drinks cold and alcoholic drinks like coffee what's up david
8:26
This is T, my friend. David, did you get your new Chromecast yet? Please tell me you did. Let's see. People can create different pop-up rooms. That is going to be incredible. not the streamer incredible because if you don't follow incredible that'd be cool go follow incredible but that will be incredible i can't wait to make my own popper room that will look exactly like this room because i'm the i'm the guy who creates an avatar of themselves that looks exactly like themselves which yeah it's due thursday come on amazon what's wrong with you if i don't get my package in like one day i think something is wrong dave of lancy dave of lansky does i think this is a yes does the museum have a jokers the alameda pinball museum do you have a jokers i think the answer is yes uh so in a vr popper room can post instruction cards flyers all the dynamic media available in popper this is going to be so much fun oh man but i gotta get somebody to make me a room oh amazon didn't have the one you wanted oh that sucks oh the chromecast that we talked about yeah all right so uh fortunately for you guys i forgot to look up the rules of this game but can you get an arcade game in popper vr i don't see why not i mean this is an arcade game basically this is just a screen being dropped into a basically like a plane in vr so yeah dandy says yes um and just so you guys know how crazy i am right so george from don't panic flip was here all weekend we got to hang out we went to free uh free go watch we played a ton of games it dude is just amazing if you don't follow him he's not going to be streaming because he's here he's in i think he's heading up to ventura right now but um can i play simpsons arcade and vr yes you probably can but um that was cool and when he was here he was looking at the you know everybody wants to touch the shrine of the mystery pinball theater uh actual cabinet and he looked at the front of the cabinet he goes oh my god you have a coin door i go yeah i have a coin door and i opened it up i showed him inside and i also i also take quarters this thing takes quarters guys check it out i have two coin mechs in there so the ppm has a joker's don't know what condition or state oh that's a shame all right i mean this was this is a game that i discovered in vr and i think i played it at the um pinball museum uh the pacific pinball museum i think i played the real one and I was really excited. It's one of those weird games that have a game-breaking mechanic where the third ball or the last ball, if you shoot both ramps, you actually double your score.
11:41
And that is, to me, a little bit game-breaking. So there's that. So let's check this out. What's up, Fishbowl? Nice. I take quarters, but they drop into the speaker, which isn't that good. Well...
12:03
What's up, The Fishbowl? The Fishbowl, don't worry about it. I have mine dropping... Where is it? They just dropped into this, like, Chinese takeout plastic thing here. So it's... Whatever. This is like a bank. I don't actually coin up to play, but this is like a bank for me now.
12:29
um whenever i uh whenever i come home with quarters from the arcade i give them to skyler who's my four-year-old and i'd say go fill up the pinball machine and he just spends time just putting the quarters in it's like an activity that he loves um brad used to own one maybe still does and he would have brought it to pentagogo uh and then lodi did you play it there possibly possibly i played it there so i'm going to try and remember how to play this game now the middle ramp it's hard to see depth in it's hard to see depth anyway over Twitch and a pinball machine but I think it's a little harder on a VPX too but there's a target right here the ramp is actually down and if I could trap up and hit that target the target right here lowers the ramp see if i can do that again oh my god really oh my this is amazing got it so it lowered the ramp and then i drain uh is this a wax table or is this a new no this is this is actually not a wax table i don't think this is a wax modded table because it's a very old table that i had in my system that i decided would be fun to play tonight um i i should check my wax archives and see if it's a wax modded table um or see if there is one that i can get did you wax the play field at least what's up flip stream buddy i haven't seen you in a long time how's things we need to chat at some point we need to talk tech. Alright, so I locked one ball.
14:22
Now, if you look at the back glass, the hand of cards in the king's hand is actually a wheel that spins and it shows different hands. So right now, he's holding a flush. No, he's holding a straight.
14:37
But it spins around to give you different hands. That's how they show different hands in there. Only one class left until I'm done. Awesome. well congratulations on being smart the smartest guy in the room what's up fiends
14:54
all right it's kind of hard to tell good evening fiends it's kind of hard to tell but this table has two levels all right there's this level up here is raised off the play field and then And there's all this stuff down here. It's a very interesting layout of a machine. Especially when you see it in person. Okay, I just raised it. I lock another ball. Nope, nope, nope, I won't. Yes, no, I won't. No, yes, no, yes, no. Okay, yes, okay. Now this is your multi-ball. Okay, so the key is to get it back Oh, what's up?
15:44
Oh, guys Oh Woo I'm doing it Look at that Did you guys see that? How baller was that?
16:01
Yes Exclamation point, do something I got the jackpot So Let's see if I can trap here. Please, please.
16:14
Okay, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, guys. Wow. Oh, this is so good right now. That's my favorite sound.
16:36
Let's see, what did I miss? I don't think this is a wax table because the ball image is very different from what I usually see in a wax table. Yeah, it's completely different from a wax table.
16:51
And the center raising ramp. Yes, this is definitely a fun one. What's up, Hawkeyes? How's it going, buddy? Hawkeyes, are you going to tell me that there's a pup pack for this? because I will literally shat my pants if you tell me that there's a pump bag for chokers. More than one ball.
17:29
Y are really good at spotting those redemptions when they show up aren you Really good at spotting them when they show up What's up, LambDiggityDangDog? Which was the most favorite name on the stream yesterday.
17:49
The ramp raises in this, yeah, it does. Finally got it. Oh, boy. So, so this has one of those Williams progressive jackpots, as you can see on the back glass over there. And the more people, the more.
18:15
Hey, Bobo. This has a progressive. Thank you for the, thank you for the follow. Risky. Thank you so much. Welcome to the theater. This has a progressive jackpot, but the jackpot will raise and raise and raise, and the person who gets it, gets it. And that's how it works. Thank you for the sub, CaptainDan318. Throw that prize sub my way. You are awesome. Can we play 10k points for a full version? Ha ha ha ha.
18:49
Oh, wow. The answer is yes, that could happen, sure. How about on a longer stream I only stream for an hour on Tuesday Bubba what's up Kevin70 I've played this game before Haha yeah this is a fun game And Obi-Wan Jacoby thank you for redeeming that chipmunk voice Cause that's a thing That's a thing that was made And redeemable by people So I'm at 3.6 There are other shots on here too There's like that shot right up there which will spot me a card, so to speak. Oh, and I haven't even hit the ramps yet.
19:38
The ramps are hard to hit on this version. See the card spin? Look at the card spin. Look at the card spin, guy. I got three of a kind. Holy smokes. So, for a long time, the back glass didn't move. And then when they came up with the DirectB2S system, then they started doing that and that's pretty awesome um oh hi manu i love that there's a vr version of this i believe hard to see the ramp in regular vps yes jazz it is it's tricky you gotta know it's there right like is my telestrator working like i don't need to telestrate this at all but you know this yeah no the telestrator is not actually working but i don't really need to show you guys but you've seen it never noticed the cards on the v2s yeah they spin dude isn't cool so you're getting different different values of of cards most people typically just go for the ramp the middle ramp
20:46
ah come on Well, here's the thing. The cool thing about all those redemptions with DMCA sounds, they're not actually going to the VOD. So unless the DMCA people are staring at me right now, I don't care what I play, really. They can kiss my DMCA, right? uh mushroom mushroom jesus w-t-f i've never seen this table this is jokers by williams okay here's i use the sound for no reason just because i like listening to who is that song anyway that is tina marie that is tina marie and the song is called that's the bridge i can't i'll let me think
21:39
Is it Square Biz? No, it's not Square Biz. I think it's Tina Marie. What's up, Mr. Scoot? Hello, yes, this is DMC. I'm here to tell you... We don't care.
21:52
No! Is this the pat-down now, Scoot? Is this it? All right, Mr. Smith, you say your name. My name is Billy. I'm from the DMCA. I'm here to
22:38
This kiss my DMCA. They might be staring at you, Manu. You're a fun guy to stare at. My pin museum doesn't have this for some reason. I don't know. I don't normally watch pinball. Is it just me or is the ball too large? The ball is very large on this, David.
22:58
On this particular game, the ball is ridiculously large. And I took note of that. And so I'm looking for another version of it. But you're correct. The balls are not usually... My balls are not usually this large, my friend. My balls are usually normal sized. This time my balls look really big.
23:20
Yeah, Agent Smith. You're here from the Digital Millennium Copyright Act? No, well, the IRA. Whatever, Flipstream. Okay, I think... I know one thing about copyright is that they care about pinball streamers from... uh yeah if you got waxes if anybody has a link to wax's version send it to me i don't i don't know if i have it here's the game breaking mechanic i'm talking about though i just put up 3.4 million if i can manage to hit both ramps on this last ball it doubles my score now i'm hoping there's a tournament mode in there where it turns that completely off because that is not good Alright, but hitting both ramps on this version Ping the net Ping the net, that was one of my favorite Redemptions to do That was one of my favorite Redemptions to do Let's see if I can hit that other ramp though We still want to hit that other ramp. Get that double score.
24:37
Boom. Double score. I just doubled my score, guys. How stupid is that? I freaking doubled my score. Really, game? Two seconds left. One second left. To what? I don't even know what that shot's for.
25:02
No, don't drain. You might as well stay in the game now, ball. Don't drain, don't drain. Well, that's a hell of a good score for this game. Holy smokes.
25:19
Wow. Captain Dan. Captain Dan, if you are still here, what are your initials? I'm going to put C something. Captain Dan Type your initials in real quick Because this is going to run out Or I'll just put Cap C DHS Why does that sound familiar?

You were saying about Jay's insane future spa. Yes. Oh, yo. Oh, I... Guys. Pinballers. This future spa.
39:33
I... I can't express how clean and nice this future spa was. I really can't. It's impossible. I locked one ball. Let's not even talk about it. This future spot was like right off of the Williams lot.
39:57
Again, my logo. Was your logo... I don't know. Whatever. Logos... There's a lot going on. And Joe wants to buy this tech? No, please don't, Joe It's not ready What did you get for the four of a kind, though? You got an extra ball It's actually, I think it's written on Yeah, it's written on the draw poker If you can see it on the screen On the little scroll in front of the king Four of a kind is an extra ball Was it a hard top on the future spot? A hard top I don't know what that means, Jordan now you're way over my head.
40:40
There's a huge thread on his real bill of pin side. Wow, okay. Yeah. Dunder, thank you for the biddies.
40:50
Riku! I'm sitting here working on the V-Pin software. I keep breaking it. Oh. Um. Perhaps it wasn't a future spot so much as the bathhouse.
41:06
Oh, VP Fiends has your logo? I'll take a look. I mean, it's weird. I've kind of gone past the profile picture capture stage, but I'll circle back around and see if I can fix that. Will there be holiday-themed theater events?
41:24
Yes, there always is. We did Santa with Muscles last Christmas. Hard Top Playfield. Yeah. What's the difference? I don't get it. What's the difference between a hardtop playfield and a non-hardtop playfield?
41:41
I thought they were all hardtop. Hardtop is basically printed thick... Oh, okay. Actually, Jay would know better than Jordan. He bought a new playfield for it.
41:56
So... Printed thick mylar to overlay sand playfields. Awesome. We gotta do hurricane heights because it's rainy. Hurricane Heist.
42:07
Oh, yeah. Yeah, repro play field. Hey, Mano, can I post the Pinside Link? Yeah, hell yes. Yes. Can you? Can you not? If you can't, Flipstream can do it.
42:18
Which reminds me, I need to turn off that ability. And only let mods do it. Or mod, because I think Surreal is a mod, too.
42:30
Oh, my God. I offered the mod job to Jordan But he He's like I don't want to be a mod The movie Hurricane Heist Oh here we go Multi-ball Now here's the way the multi-ball works though You have to lock like three more times So that's one That's two That's three and that's jackpot and you keep doing that well you can't do it now because the thing is down but i can do it again that's one that's two that's three two more shots and of course it goes up It's like Scared Stiff every other shot. It's like one more. It's one. Oh, now I have to hit the target in order to open it. This game is going crazy. This is the best idea ever. I got 27 extra balls. 27 seems to be a number that I love. Hang on, I'm gonna try and trap...
43:56
Hell of a backhand, Manu. Flip stream is... writing down all the... the current scores. Hell yeah! I deserve that.
44:17
Oh, I really deserve that. pinballer. Riku, make sure you have a nudge capability because it saved my ass like four or five times just now.
44:32
I am still in multiball. Ah! Ooh. Yeah! Oh my god, I got an organic like seven million why Jordan were you here when I showed off Jordan wasn't here when I showed up, guys. I gotta do this again for Jordan.
45:15
Look. Jordan, look. My first time hitting Mega Cracka Locka Locka... Whatever. Wow. Really? Really, bro?
45:42
That's a lot of numbers George are you saying goodnight? Goodnight George Quiet we are playing I love that Numbers Shots fired Alright okay okay Here's the part
46:12
Hey, I never hit the Billion Club. Oh, okay. Oh, that was... Fliptronic, that was mostly Lucky Snicks. I must have got 2 or 3 X. I definitely got 3 X during Mech Suit.
46:30
You get some Lucky Snicks in that game, and your score just blows up. Oh, and then I got 100 weapons, so I had 2 X play field for a long time. um i haven't played pinball in years oh since uh free play and tx lamb diggity dang dog i am i guarantee you you will play pinball soon uh free goal watch is open 35 capacity but um it's open and we're having a ball actually this thursday hopefully my buddy mary will come by and we're gonna play deadpool downstairs in the garage um can i give raid suggestions yeah cranch you can of great suggestions sure hungry gragas grab with snickers you're supposed to score on pin side it's not it's on pin side you mean pin to go it's not a big score riku really it's not yes they have a cactus canyon that george played and fell in love with it um i remember pinball i'm gonna tell you this guys uh who remembers a particular show called electro woman and dinah girl not this guy Oh fliptronic Grammy of course Grammy I knew you would know me and Grammy were up eating cereal watching a lecture woman in Dinah girl Remember crowds? I know it existed.
48:08
So that, it was slightly... Well, for all those who haven't seen... For all those who have seen it, you know what it's all about. And those who haven't seen it, you're welcome, because we're going to riff to it. We're going to do a night in the theater this Friday of terrible... I'm calling it second-rate B-class superheroes.
48:30
We're looking at The Secret of ISIS, possibly an episode of Shazam, or the original 1970s Spider-Man, and Electra Frickin' Woman and Dinah Girl. I am going to have such fun watching you guys rip.
48:55
What is Nightman? And Becca, you can feel free to send me a YouTube link later on Nightman. These happen to be As far as I know Sid and Marty Kroft productions From the 70s As far as I know They're Sid and Marty Kroft productions from the 70s They're terrible They're freaking awful I have another movie for you Rift 2. Sweet Home 1989. Oh my god. Okay, Nightbooked. Rock Lee Flan. Get some Bigfoot and Wildboy into the mix. Oh, I remember Bigfoot and Wildboy. Nightman is a guy who only uses his powers in the dark. By daylight he's a Zags player. Ah!

It was a terrible superhero show Yeah send me a Send me a link in discord Me and uh Me and obviously Oh no no damn it I'm about to beat What's his name score Captain uh Captain Diesel We're about to beat it We're gonna beat it This is only ball two probably 74 75 ish uh did he pay the total troll there's also mantis need to do captain n mantis rather uh what about the 1990 fantastic four movie yeah that oh my god we have to do that sometime yeah the fantastic four movie ouch captain dan okay captain dan thank you captain diesel captain diesel i just slammed two of you together i am not an animal i am captain dan come on let's rock this baby let's rock this once upon a time there was a boy named manu and this boy named manu had 8.2 million points and jokers but then he hit ball three and he had to double his score by hitting both ramps he only had 10 seconds left like only 10 seconds i'm supposed to get 20 seconds the original captain america movie do not do that fantastic four movie please don't i've never heard fliptronic so adamant about not doing a movie holy smokes master pancakes worst show was that movie oh okay wow um we riffs we riffs van damme we just did van damme we did time cop like two weeks ago uh it was only it was only made to keep the license so the movie yeah yeah yeah All right, they made three seasons of Blazing Saddles TV show that was terrible Yeah no those were terrible If you like parole violators this was bad fire if you thought parole violators was bad this was horrible Becca we have a night also of coming up we have Cleopatra 2525 xenon and Xena and Hercules but I have to figure out how to split all of them up because they you know I don't want to do a three-hour stream I'm not mr. Scoot.
53:11
That's one ramp. I'm not Mr. Scoot. I can't do a 17 hour stream and still look minty fresh. The longer the stream goes for me, the worse it's going to be.
53:23
I don't want to draw poker. I want to hit that other ramp. Dave Paisan. Do the 90s Fantastic Four. I saw that in college. Oh my god.
53:34
Bounce. Going up. come on i blew it all right i couldn't double it sorry guys damn it that would have been so now i have to actually get over 8.6 because i think captain dan got 8.6 something i'm at 3x i might get it just in bonus so let's try to get another multi-ball going man i sent you a movie it has the english subs oh cool so so becca what do you think about that we do maybe a night of Xena and Cleopatra 2525. Oh, Xena and Hercules. Or Cleopatra. Because Cleopatra 2525 goes in that group. But I don't know how to. I don't know how to fit them all into a two hour or two and a half hour stream. Sam Raimi's special. So fresh and so clean clean. What's up Magic Man?
54:28
Or some B-movie style horror like Killer Clowns from Outer Space. Who? Oh, here's a movie for fiends. It was called Hobo with a Hobo something. I can't remember now But it was a surreal found me a movie It was hobos Surreal if you're there remind me what the hobo movie was Because it's very appropriate to my stream Hobo with a shotgun Everyone's saying hobo with a shotgun I feel so left out Oh my god I miss so many bad movies I watched that Roger Corman Fantastic Four In my high school video production class An example of what not to make the ball reflection is does make it look pretty big yeah all right so that's it oh it's a gory movie uh darn all right so becca just locked it in cleopatra 25 25 xena we'll ditch kevin serbo i don't mind man it just means you have an awesome steam audience yeah i do actually yeah the way you say the hobo movie is either uh let's watch the xeno xenophobic experiments is that a movie mima didn't they just make that movie to hold on to the rights yeah kevin sorbo is a trash human yeah let's let's ditch kevin sorbo all right it's settled but this friday we're doing some electro woman and dina girl we're doing some oh my god dina girl guys do yourselves a favor if you want a head start if you want a head start you got to get in the theater though you got to get a ticket but if you want a head start just look up electro woman and dinah girl on youtube it's the same one that i'm ripping look at this 1970s version it's about 20 something minutes you're welcome you're welcome it's not the movie it's not the movie that they made they They remade Electro Woman and Dyna Girl. It's not that. It's the old one.
56:34
Yeah, Kevin Sorbo was a no, Hawkeyes. Sorry. Flipstream, you can't do credit right now. Kevin Sorbo, back when he was doing Hercules, he was cool. Now he's weird.
56:54
No, no, no. No. No, no, no, no, no. Shia LaBeouf. Come on, come on, just hit it. Just hit it. Oh, that was so dangerous.
57:12

57:41
ah let's see not the wow I missed so much just go straight to straw dogs and be done with it yeah ditch Kevin Savoy either way I mean There's the great crossover episode Of Hercules There is the crossover episode Deidre Hall I like the Andromeda Dave Pazan A lot of COVID is fake type crap Dean Cain is a trash human Did I start up Did I start some kind of battle in chat I'm sorry You know what we need MimaSweets And this is true we talked about this on the stream We need a website Because I'm not doing any code this week Because we fixed the bonus problem Surreal and I just want to have a night where we have fun And we don't have to worry about things breaking But moving forward We're going to do player profiles because you're going to get achievements for doing certain things. And you're going to have high scores, which means you're going to have a profile, which means there's got to be a way for you to look at your profile, which means we may need a website for Mystery Pinball Theater's Riff Theater. And that's the story.
59:08
Surreal, you do not have fun every night. The other night you were cursing out. You were like, this is boop and a boop with your boop. That's boop. I took a boop. Boop. And I was like, Surreal, I really appreciate that you're censoring yourself, but, you know, we're grownups. You don't have to do it. And he said, don't tell me what the boop. I want a boop. If I want a boop, you boop. I boop with a ooo and a ooo. Your ooo.
59:34
Draw a poker. Look it, look it, look it, look it. Three of a kind. Damn it. Come on. Bring it, bring it, bring it. Oh, I'm killing this game. We got to put up a 10.

60:16
David Paisan says, If there is a movie suggestion box, I would suggest Space Truckers from 1996.
60:27
Daddy, what does boob mean? Surreal is all about those thousand hertz. Not happening for either one, Fliptron. Not happening for either one. If Brian O'Neill hasn't suggested riffing any Neil Breen movies yet, then I'll do it for him.
60:54
