What else?

He hates Blue Road. What's that?

He's he's never heard of a blue road.

He was in Florida. Okay. Okay. We'll put it this way. If I hear country music, it affects my mood And therefore, based off of that. Now that it's affected my mood. It's affecting me. So therefore, I am double upset I shouldn't be. So

Previously on Letter Kenny.

Last week, we recapped and reviewed episode one of Letter Kenny season twelve live at Modines. That episode got from all of us except Victor and Daniel who gave it a clearance. According to our scientific Twitter poll, only sixty nine point nine percent gave it a fresh. Twenty six point seven gan noise gave it a clearance and three point seven gator compost. This week, a recap and review episode two season twelve Sun darts. Have you done your homework, Tanya?

One and a half times.

Yeah. You watched it upstairs just before he came down. That's where you're late. Matt, have you done your homework?

I I I got it in. Yeah?

Victor, have you done your homework? What it is. I've done my homework, and Zach have you done your homework? I see it

multiple times. Yeah.

Right there in front of you. Matt will do that later on in the in the new section. Alright. So let's open with the cold open. Squirrely Dan Katie and Wayne looking at the camera. Wayne says, your pal was telling a fight story that was obviously fake the other day. Katie asks Wayne, how she knows those fake squirrely Dan responds with way too much talk ins. Then we cut to squirrely Dan, Wayne, and McMurray sitting in front Woodshed having a smoke. McMurray's eager to tell them his story, but neither seem too eager to hear it. McMurray waits patiently as the other two hicks slowly light their cigarettes. And then they finally give McMurray the green light. McMurray kicks into a story of being down in Chilean, Patagonia in, Rio Serrano's finest casino. And meeting the hottest Chilean Patagonian he's ever seen. She started wrenching him out of nowhere, and his unlikely story continues.

I feel a tap on my shoulder. I turn around. It's this great big fella. He grabbed him by the collar. Had to be a foot taller than me. Couldn't believe how Tolly was. Or was he about two fifty pounds? He's three hundred pounds around a panda. Big boy.

It's pandemonium.

It's one of them. Didn't the eyes.

And I

said to him, I said, it's used me a big pepy. I'm busy. It is here in Centarita. Uh-oh. He looks down

at me. But he wasn't already looking at it.

And he says, me. He says, you're either crazy. Or you're tough as hell. What did you says? I said, look me in my eyes. Al Capitan. I might be a bit of both.

Unface squarely banned comments that it seems like McBorese has a lot of conversations like this with really big guys before he gets into a fight. Mc Murray said it it didn't end there. Wayne wishes it had. Mc Marie asked if squirrely Dan doubts his story, squirrely Dan asked him which one. Mc Murray offended. And then Wayne chimes in.

Oh, keep your tits on McMurray. Everybody knows this sort of shit happens down there all the time. A squirrely be.

Fuck now that I think of it. Almost exact same thing happened to me last time I was down Portify Art at Zona Romantica. A spoil ID.

Who's Zona? Oh, yeah. Where to Valerta's Romantica. Oh, haven't we? See, I'm

just standing there, drinking a beer, minding my own business. Six thing I know this great big prick walks up, kicks me right in the stomach. Oh, it was three fifty pounds where I'm a banjo catfish.

What'd you do?

Well, I caught his foot in the air. Put him down in the eye. And I says, Hey, Well, Chacho. No boy, no.

I believe you got that line from you. Anyway, now they have McMurray pro properly hooked. Willie Dan tells his story at the time. He was down in Gover Naderos, Valderas, and he was accosted by a literal giant. Four hundred pounds or wanes of wet pomeranian. Now that he thinks of it, the almost exact thing happened to Wayne last time. He was down in San Salvador a salvador de hoo hooie except this time it was brothers, seven feet tall and and wide, says squirrely Dan. Wayne and squirrely Dan get on a roll and McMurray's biting on all the stories. And

then Casas Brande. Victoria de conquistas. Brazario de Norte.

Boldus redundancy.

Oh, he was five hundred pounds or I'm a humboldt penguin.

Six hundred pounds or I'm fresh water eels.

One metric toner. I'm a common house spider.

Holy. I says, Hey. I'm egos. Compadry. Pizanos. Chubs, kick rocks.

Mind your p's and q's.

Smoke them if you got some.

What the fuck am I on? The countervans got no fucking veils. Wow.

Is that right?

No, Mick Murray, for fuck's sake. It's fucking fakes, Mc Murray's.

Well, how the fuck am I supposed to know that? Way too much talking.

And cue the intro. Alright. That's the cold open. Tanya, you just recently saw, like, literally, like, ten minutes ago.

I did. I did.

What did you think of this cold open?

Oh, Mick Murray. I just I I It's just bloody hilarious. He the tall tales that he tells, and I love that he was called out on it in such a playful way. Wayne and and squirrelie Dan, you know, telling their stories. And that's where you got the Paul Meridian from. Didn't know where that was coming in. But thank you for that for for saying it twice. Yeah. It I I love it. It's it's great. I have a storyteller in my family and I recently called them out on their BS and, so this hit home for me.

This is your father you're talking about.

No. This was my mom, actually.

They're both kind of storytellers, aren't they? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

It's almost fun. The the the seems start to finish. I like sort of the the suspense at the beginning when he's ready to tell a story and they just like long drawn out pause while they like their smokes. I'm like, alright. Let's go that killed me. The exaggerations as they get deeper into their stories, how much bigger the people kept getting? Yeah. Actually killed me. And then I love at the end how McMurray thought it was all real, and they had to put it, like, it's all fucking fake. But, the real hero of this whole open And there's a trend in this episode I caught, and I wanna need to watch the gangs. I betcha this more, was the snatch reference. So with a part where he says, what I wanna caravan is gonna fucking wheels.

Mhmm.

That's a direct line from the one of my favorite movies, Snats, Brad Pitts.

Oh, no wonder I didn't understand it.

Yeah. So it's a random reference in there. But when he said that I I dropped I dropped. I died. I'm like, I love they threw that. I don't know what the relevance to it was. Right. I think they're just having some fun. I have repeated that line for years. Yeah. A plus on that. That's the MVP of that open right there.

Wow. There you go. Victor.

Well, I clearly I didn't get the the MVP of the the that for sure because,

Go back and watch. If you haven't seen the movie snatch

I've seen snatch,

but I

have to watch it twice cause I didn't understand it the first time.

Did you understand it the second time?

Or did you Oh, it's so good. I know, but it's just yeah. Oh, no. I so it's one of the few movies in my lifetime. I've actually seen twice in the theaters because I was that good. I went back and watched it again. And and I I had the extended version on DVD at the time. And then if you put on the subtitles, there's a lot of scenes when Brad Pitt speaking where it just literally comes up as question marks because he's not actually saying anything.

Yeah. Yeah. It's complete nonsense. That's why I watched it a second time. Yeah. I watched second time, and I still don't understand what you're saying, dude.

No. It's

He said, what am I gonna do with a caravan that's got no fucking wheels?

Oh, okay.

That

was that's what he said, but he said it. Yeah. And the gypsy piker stocks. So anyways

Okay. Well, it's cool. It's it's a nice little easter egg, I guess, for those that got it. Anyway, I I thought it was good. It was cute. A little bit corny, at times. I I the thing I enjoyed about it the most is, you know, the references or I'm not, like, a retired penguin or whatever.

Yeah. Yeah. A humble penguin. Yeah.

Whatever, you know, or or I'm not a skinny panda or whatever the the the things were. Those were fun. I don't think I would have called it hilarious. It was amusing. It was amusing. It tickled it tickled my funny boom. Mhmm. But it didn't, fully erupting to laughter. Sure. But it was good. It was a little too much talking, but it was good.

Yeah. Awesome. With a great But

that was whole thing way too much talking.

Yeah. And they did they accomplished it, and I agree with him.

Yeah. Great point in the live stream. Awesome says the relevance is Brad Pitt is a letter Kenny fan. So the shout out to Brad Pitt or to snatch anyway, he's probably

I'm mad. I didn't put that together because I knew that. But that's a great great show to

Yeah. I'm I'm a little bit with Victor on this one. I missed the snatch reference, but And I also thought it was just okay. I mean, it was fun. It was it was amusing. And I I I loved how the stories were obviously getting more and more ramped up and and how Mick Murray's just

It's the it's the big fish.

Yeah.

And How big was the fish? Yeah. Fish got bigger and bigger.

Good movie, by the way.

Yeah. Yes. Very good movie. Big.

Very good movie.

Big Krish.

Great movie.

Yeah. I enjoyed it. I enjoyed the cold open. I mean, I I would if if I were just giving this a rating, I would give it a clearance. It wasn't spectacular for me, but it was it was good. Zach?

I honestly I thought this thing was it was hilarious. Victor. I don't know what's what's wrong with you.

Zach is on tonight just to show how disappointing

I love how he picks on me. Like, he literally said the same thing, but he's picking on me. I love that.

You say this most silly state, most silly things. I don't know. No. I honestly I thought it was hilarious. Though, back and forth, at Mc Murray's expense and how he is always oblivious to this kind of shit.

Mhmm.

So they can do a whole runner in front of him and he doesn't understand it until they actually say something.

Mhmm.

But holy fuck. Like, when when, squirrely Dan, gets, called out by Mc Murray, for the, oh, you think I'm making this up? Right. Yeah. Which times?

Yeah. Exactly.

And then Wayne just like, alright. That's just hold on. We all know this kind of thing happens. And then he he says two lines and looks over to squarely Dan, like, Alright. You ready for it? Mhmm. And squirrely Dan doesn't even say a word. He just looks at him and blinks, and they just fall into it. Yeah. Love it.

It was great. Yeah. Also, I can't remember the last time they shot in front of the woodshed I think that I feel like that's, like, one of the first few times we've seen that. And we've seen a couple of different locations throughout In

this one.

This new season

Yeah.

On the farm, but but just kind of, yeah, different kind of locations. So that was Yeah.

Different backgrounds. Mhmm.

Agreed. Mhmm. Cool. Alright. Coming out of the opening theme, Wayne and Katie are at the produce stand. Katie wonders where Dar is. She didn't see him all day all the day before. Squid and arrives wearing a straw mennonite hat instead of his usual farmer's cap, both Katie and Wayne poke fun. He's almost yeah. He always had the mennonite beard, but now he's got the matching hat. Wayne adds he just needs the B. O. So when Dan says he usually that usually sets in after lunch. The comments but the hat continue.

Now here's Dan in this very smart Chapel while I'm still putting sunscreen on my ears like a sucker. I mean, this guy's trendy. He's hip. He's happening.

I'm pretty sure to wear that hat.

Gotta be over on a four minute mile. You know, Dan, I'd pay for some fashion tips, but I know how he maninates like the honor system. You already smell like summer sausage. This was a gift from Lavina's Dick. Oh. Careful calling that a gift. Won't be kept at a receipt. Called a regift. The fucking they run?

Screwly then admits that the more time he spends with Lavina's people, the more he sees merits in that lifestyle, hard work, peace making, general service towards others.

Yeah. I'm fucking pooping into a bucket in the yard. Justin for winter all summer sounds like a great time, Dan.

Nothing like the prospect

is shitting into a hole to make you wanna shake things up, bit it.

Just then, A truck pulls up the laneway hits Dickens. He gives squirrely down one final zinger about his hat before he gets to business.

Pretty sure to wear that hat. You gotta be able to throw a bar on up on lunch break.

That's a great line. Katie asked Dickens what brings him by.

You've always known me as a mono career man. The auctioneering profession has been kind to me over the years. The job is in my soul.

But is it in my heart?

The plot thickens for Jim Dickens. What's in your heart, Big fella? Country Music. Country's musics. Country and Western Music. Yes.

Is that right?

Now, my love for the boogie. But the boots get? Yes. My love of the boots Gooten Boogie is no secret in these parts. But what I have kept a closely guarded secret is my lifelong desire to give it a run like Brooks and Dunn. Get your fix like the check. I'm good and keen, like Jason Aldine. First of cars like Maren's Morris. No restraint, like Shania twain.

Do it

for the thrill, like Vince Gil or faith health. But see, I want to be better than good, like Carrie Underwood. Then quit Stalin Morgan Wallen. Get trying, Luke Bryant. See the days like Lady's Ayes. Y'all are so nice. Likely vice.

I knew some of those. Dickens has a plan to jump in head first.

Brooks and Dun are actually good. Yeah.

Okay. Write a song and make a music video, put it on YouTube and see what happens. Dickens says he knows how much the Hicks love country music. This gets a flattened o from Wayne. This surprises Dickens, but they're farmers. They were plaid. They shovel shit and grow vegetables. They'll they live in the country. They quite literally exist in the heart of the genre. Hicks just sit there stone faced, not even a bit, not one drill bit, not one bell pepper, Dickens is without words, but the Hicks finally relent. A little bit.

That's a lot a lot.

I guess I I guess I do like it a wee bit. Well, that'll do. Yeah. One dabble, do you. Everything in moderation, small doses is alright. I need all the help I can get. And when a friend asks for help,

you help him.

Thank you friends. Now come Let's join the others. Others?

Cut to the egg hall and scene teams.

That's my favorite line. Let's join the this.

And we find out who the others are. Stewart enrolled wearing berets, sunglasses, and scarves are standing on either side of a whiteboard, on it are drawings of a farm with animals and a cow with a guitar for some reason all around the title con Country one zero one. Their audience are the Hicks, including Mc Murray and Dickens but no dairy. Stewart takes his turn to make fun of squirrely Dan's hat. And then next, he asked his hic audience who is familiar with AI. Mc Murray surprisingly chimes in. He knows it stands for artificial intelligence. This impresses the skids. They were forced to use artificial intelligence, not because they don't have intelligence according to Katie, but because their knowledge of country music is limited. Katie asked McMurray how he knew what AI was. McMurray says it's what porno sites use to know, what you might jerk off to. To be the use of AI.

It's honesty. I never get tired

of it.

I miss that that's what he said. Yeah. That's exactly what he said. I couldn't

Through the use of AI on that dark web, the skids were able to determine the two essential elements to constructing a hit country song. The first one is a unique cook, which must also be used in the title of the song.

Thank god. Times of the country's boys? Dig deeper. Five and large homewares? Deeper. Save a horse ride a cowboy.

Giddy up. And that particular title teaches us a valuable lesson in the process. Just because it's unique does not mean it can't be dumb.

Dumb is almost preferable in a unique hook for a hit country song. Country and western.

We're looking for contagious dialogue here people. Coodables.

She thinks my tractor's sexy. Dumber. No shirt. No shoes. No problem. Dumber.

I've got it. Beer for my horses.

Bingo or an activity, something that you all do, something along the lines of, well, I don't know, the fishing in the dark. Darts? I was gonna say that too. Less mostly just smoking darts.

But it needs to be more catchy, more crafty, more clever. Needs to be more poetic. How about, smoking darts in the rain?

No. You can't do that.

Was there any So, I

mean, your your dart would go out. Okay.

So you're smoking darts

with a dryer.

Oh, after

you're on a small one.

Dry darts. Blue sky darts.

Best dart runs its worms.

Hot darts.

We're not trying to fuck darts. Marie? I'll try anything once.

Spoken in the summer. Sundair. Sund darts. Are hit single shall be christened. Sund darts.

Dickens thinks it's perfect. The others seem to agree. Katie raises her hand. She wants to know what the second essential element to construct a hit country song is. The skids laugh and flip over the whiteboard. The other side is filled with dozens of words commonly found in country songs Steward calls this as much hick shit as possible.

The goal with number two is to trigger the emotions or tug the heartstrings of hicks. And you do that by packing in as much hick shit as humanly possible. And at the top of that list should and shall be

Your mama? And your daddy. Hyper important to any hit country and western single. Your mama? In your daddy. What are you supposed to say about your mom and your daddy?

Oh, the meaning is irrelevant. Of importance are the words. Mama? And daddy.

So just your mama and your dad. Well, your mama and your dad air. My mama and my dad.

So it could be anybody's mama. Could be anybody's daddy.

It could

be more than one mama and more than one daddy. You've got multiple mamas and daddy's. You're really rocking.

Steward adds that everyone loves a good story, but the country music genre is impossibly forgiving when it comes to logic in the message. You've already got your unique hook sundaarts. Now you need only to insulate it with as much hick shit as possible. Trucks?

Truck parts even. Dirt rodents? Mutton. Blue jeans. Your favorite jean jacket,

sunsets, steel toes, swimming holes.

And there you have it, The formula.

What do we do now?

Frolgan and I will engross ourselves in manufacturing the song using AI algorithm and butts. Then we shall reconvene to shoot the video. To the video.

Here's something. My first time jerking off was to Schneider Twain Midriff in the video for any man of mine. Let's go, girls.

Let's see. Where am I? Dairy? Okay. Seeing next scene. Scene three. Dairy walks into modine's notices an attractive woman at the park talking to Bonnie. Riley and Jones are sitting at a table. They tell Dairy not to bother. She's a babe, a Mega babe, a ten ski, a twelve ski even, but she's unavailable. Dairy asked them how they know.

It's almost not worth repeating.

Well, what isn't?

What she said to us when

you took a run at her?

You took a run at her.

Yeah. Of course. You did, bro. You missed a hundred of the shots. You don't take.

Riley.

And he's Jonesie, and we're from Letter Kenny. And then?

She said they look like a couple of dads from teen mom.

Really?

Then she said they look like if Doritos made humans.
