JACKPOT! and JUNIOR TASKMASTER S01 E01: Reviewed! Well hey there CCCAH freaks. We love you and your freaky ways you know. Always checking out the pod. Always deep in the shownotes. We love that from you. Another delicious slice of content that is in fact all about processing content more consciously, rigorously, artistically even - and with a friend by your side! You are also a friend by our side you know. N’awww c’mere you, sidle on up next to ol’ Uncle Christopher and Uncle Jeffrey! We’re talking Junior Taskmaster and Jackpot! this week. Tenuous grammatications and creative collaborations. Spoilers? Kinda I mean, I don’t know anymore. What isn’t a spoiler? That might be the easier question at this point. Deary me. The first episode of the first season of Junior Taskmaster lives here. There is now more than one episode. Rejoice. But start with the first episode still: https://www.channel4.com/programmes/junior-taskmaster/on-demand/75590-003Here is your database of all things Taskmastery you hear your distractible hosts enjoying on today’s show: https://taskmaster.info/Where is Dave? Is everything cool with Dave? The TV Channel I mean. Let’s check in with the Dave website. It now seems to be called U&Dave. I don’t know how to feel about that. How do you feel about that? How do we feel about that? You and I. Lol: https://u.co.uk/channel/daveRose Matafeo doing some stand up on Conan. This won’t be her last time in the shownotes, no, surely not: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7j1WO6BVIdAJACKPOT! can be watched here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Jackpot-Paul-Feig/dp/B0D1J68B8FJohn Cena and Awkwafina doing some press together for WIRED’s YouTube channel like the delightful double act they now are: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7TMg7QsWOgWhen I went on a mad one confusing Awkwafina (the comedian and star of Jackpot!) and Akinfenwa (former football player for teams such as FK Atlantas and Faversham Town F.C.) it reminded me of this infamous clip of David Letterman from that one time he hosted the Oscars … my bad lol: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-BJTE56I14Danny Jones doing an advert for preventative hair loss treatment MANUAL can be watched here. If you’re all caught up on some of the new season of I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here! and you’re jonesing (hehe) for some more Danny Jones content .. who isn’t!? Am I right: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wgfrOVlLKc0Oh yes and the ending where the money has changed our main characters and they’re now assholes who want mega yachts and dolphin sandwiches reminded me of a tweet. So yes, it’s back. Courtesy of @Merman_Melville from Jan 24, 2019, we proudly present to you this week’s tweet of the week: “Being a billionaire must be insane. You can buy new teeth, new skin. All your chairs cost 20,000 dollars and weigh 2,000 pounds. Your life is just a series of your own preferences. In terms of cognitive impairment it's probably like being kicked in the head by a horse every day” https://x.com/Merman_Melville/status/1088527693757349888We hope you enjoyed today’s show.

THE GREATEST NIGHT IN POP and CUNK ON CHRISTMAS: Reviewed! Jeffrey Bahlo, Bruce Springsteen, Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder, Bob Dylan, Quincy Jones, Bob Geldof, Lionel Ritchie, Michael Jackson, Willy Nelson, Bette Middler, Cindy Lauper, Tina Turner, Paul Simon … no Prince, sure … but hey, we even have Huey Lewis and Christopher Anousis! These are just some of the names featured in today’s show. You’re so lucky! Welcome to the greatest morning in podcasting! That’s right, because it’s Thursday the 14th of November. And in another timeline, your boys just witnessed the magic of Bob Dylan live last night. In this recording, we will be talking about it as if it’s in the future. All the timelines, eh? As the great man himself once said (speaking about his song “Tangled Up In Blue”): “You’ve got yesterday, today and tomorrow all in the same room, and there’s very little you can’t imagine not happening”. Indeed Bob. Indeed. But hey, Bob man, let’s talk about a song you very likely don’t remember that you sang on: We Are The World. And let’s talk about the documentary about that song. And let’s talk about Christmas. With fictionalised, mockumentary hosts. Let’s do it all.

ROUGH AND ROWDY WAYS BY BOB DYLAN and GLADIATOR: Reviewed! This is Sparta!! Wait, I mean, Rome! Wait, I mean, the CCCAH! You know the hour. The Cultural Content Appraisal one. But hey, much like Rome, The Cultural Content Consumption Appraisal Hour™ is one of the most important ancient civilizations(?) Out of the many important ancient civilizations out there. You know the ones. Anyway, I bet y’all are right tuckered out from all the news and current affairs. So many newspapers, so little time eh? If it’s not one current affair, it’s another. The apocalypse is nigh etc, we’ve all been there, done that and are waiting on the t-shirt (and other assorted merch). But right now there are important things we need to discuss here on the show of shows. The pod of pods. The most fan-backed and yet Patreon-less podcast to ever approach 100 episodes. Wolfman Jack play Rough and Rowdy Ways: https://www.bobdylan.com/albums/rough-and-rowdy-ways/The cover of Rough and Rowdy ways can be marvelled at and understood more thoroughly here: https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/how-a-56-year-old-photo-wound-up-on-the-cover-of-bob-dylans-upcoming-lp-997105/Laura Tenschert of the wonderful Definitely Dylan pod prepped you good and proper for Rough and Rowdy ways after I Contain Multitudes and Murder Most Foul had come out, back in the heady days of 2020: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0Cc4HwMi8do88CMP7C2jh5?si=7e1a8555fc6745a8Bob Dylan spoke to Douglas Brinkley about Murder Most Foul because sometimes in this world cool people talk to cool people about cool stuff d’you know what I mean (see a selective few episodes of this podcast for further examples of this phenomenon): https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/12/arts/music/bob-dylan-rough-and-rowdy-ways.htmlGladiator can be watched here. I’ll tell you this much about the ITV app: I did enjoy the ad breaks. Lengthy. Like watching on old terrestrial tv. Time to put a brew on. Go for a walk. Go to the loo. Call your loved ones and have a quick natter. But no, the lack of a quick rewind-ten-seconds button or something similar continues to infuriate also: https://www.itv.com/watch/gladiator/1a7758The audio commentary for the extended cut of Gladiator can be listened to here, featuring Ridley Scott and Russell Crowe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pO6ik4J3h0wThe audio commentary for the theatrical cut features Ridley Scott, John Mathieson (director of photography) and Pietro Scalia (editor): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiUxjg7OUn4Oh the wonders of watching all these people react to watching the end of Gladiator for the first time. Maybe if we can find some younger hosts to take over from us, they’ll start pitching cool shit like this instead of movies. Who watches “movies” these days anyways?

SHADOW KINGDOM and ANDREW GARFIELD | CHICKEN SHOP DATE: Reviewed! Gonna need a goddamn Patreon just to include the Director’s Cut of these here shownotes. (This is not a joke … or a drill!) Anyway, welcome to the 2nd edition of “HEY we’re out here consuming the wrong stuff” hahahaha no but for real, do you remember that time Jeffrey watched the wrong episode of Drag Race or something? Classic CCCAH banter. Anyway, back to today. Your boys are on a date for the 30 second game. Finally! No time for banter, there are too many links to post this week!So anyway, back to the banter. I guess Bob Dylan has finally arrived here on the pod, eh? And now I have the unenviable task of having to whittle down how many links I can include here. I am hitting the character-limit wall once more, I’ll tell you that much. We should be fine actually. We didn’t really talk about Bob Dylan or review Shadow Kingdom tbh because it’s too much - you get how it’s too much, right? This is too much for me even writing about it here. The “perfect chocolate Christmas birthday object almost becomes intimidatingly off-putting in my clumsy hands” theory. I felt like this when A Moon Shaped Pool came out and all (shout out your bingo cards!) and for years struggled with getting around to watching Shadow Kingdom, ever since the heady days of the pandemic! We talked about whether we consumed the correct Shadow Kingdom media and why that was confusing. This chat is more about being confused about what a thing is. Why we thought a thing was something it wasn’t. When and how we thought those things. Yesterday, today and tomorrow all in the same room. It’s more of a Bob Dylan song than a podcast. Anyway, here is Shadow Kingdom, super easy to find on the iPlayer haha: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m001t5bk/bob-dylan-shadow-kingdomShadow Kingdom is a film: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_Kingdom:_The_Early_Songs_of_Bob_DylanAnd you can listen to it on Spotify too (as some of us have already done): https://open.spotify.com/album/1bp23TX5hrEDSDykAaTCkE?si=vJZaEIS9TJyyDa_3RsOh4QTim Pierce talks about his DREAM of tracking LIVE with Bob Dylan becoming REAL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-WhIIgzca4Alan Light and Jeff Slate are interviewed on The Paul Leslie Hour and shed so much wisdom on Shadow Kingdom it’s actually too much: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MwhrvMAkpcCCCCAH meet Jokermen.

THE FACULTY and THE WRESTLING ROAD DIARIES: Reviewed! It’s the spoiler show about spoiling things. Docs, films, things. “Content.” Death. Welcome to the thing. The five-letter-acronym show. Which five letters? Who knows? A bunch of Cs, that is for damn sure. We’ve got some tech chat. We try to load videos and live react to them but we can’t get that going off the jump. We go on tangents. We take minutes upon minutes upon minutes to introduce a 30 second game designed to gently introduce new viewers to the show in a succinct fashion. Honestly, it’s a very straightforward ship we’ve got running over here. Smooth sailin’. Ship shape. Shape up. Shape up and ship out. Anyway, shut the fuck up. Enjoy the show. You can enjoy reading all about The Wrestling Road Diaries here: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2299573/You can enjoy even more reading-related fun regarding The Wrestling Road Diaries here.

Or … something: https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2020/jun/04/the-faculty-teen-angst-budding-high-school-romance-and-evil-alien-parasitesIf you look up The Faculty in your podcast feed you will find so many reviews it is actually scary. The new horror film of the 2020s will be about how hard it is to escape the content matrix: each new piece of anything spawning so many more pieces of content, each new layer of fresh content more trivial than the last … wait, what were we talking about?

CUTOUTS BY THE SMILE and THE IRON CLAW: Reviewed! Ding dong, the spoilercast is here! Featuring a special guest (our 1st house doorbell finally makes an appearance on the show!) today we will be cutting out all the bad bits and clawing out a victorious (we recorded it, hurrah!) podcast from the jaws of defeat (not finding the time to consume the content and then get together to record the pod!). I find it to be a good episode. I find it to be a good opening, even though it was the first (completists, can you confirm? Surely that's not right??) time the opening was interrupted. I thought it was a good (if not manic and exhausted) opening in general, even though a 2nd attempt at starting the podcast was suggested. It's just 2 Radiohead fans trying to talk about *how* to talk about a new Smile album that has just come out and then trying to talk about wrestling by talking about a wrestling movie. It's not rocket science. It's just that pitching stuff the other person wants to consume and enjoy will *also* annoy them. So get your Radiohead around that one! And enjoy (said the way Christopher says "and take care" haha)!Find a copy of Cutouts by The Smile here: https://shop.xlrecordings.com/release/469975-the-smile-cutouts?lang=en_GBMatt Everitt interviewed the secret sauce of The Smile, drummer Tom Skinner, for BBC Radio 6. It seems to be the main (only?) audio interview the band have done for this new album. It’s a beautiful conversation, especially when Tom talks about bringing his more improvisatory musical foundations to the group. And really interesting thoughts about the songs Foreign Spies, Don’t Get Me Started, The Slip and Eyes and Mouth. When he mentions how his being influenced by Radiohead seemed to naturally evolve into being involved with them musically, try not to die of jealousy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPCcAPYNpxMJonny Greenwood did an e-mail interview with the NME. Confirming that a) Radiohead got together to play again and b) there are no other Radiohead-related plans at the minute: https://www.nme.com/news/music/jonny-greenwood-interview-the-smile-cutouts-radiohead-return-3801554Don’t kid yourself with all the love for The Smile. We miss you Radiohead. Let’s watch the most recent interview with Colin Greenwood, who is touring with Nick Cave and putting out a new book. Hey, maybe we’ll see him at a book signing sometime soon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPCcAPYNpxMFind a copy of The Iron Claw here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Iron-Claw-Sean-Durkin/dp/B0CV7V27RYThe Von Erich family are inducted into the WWE hall of fame: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sp3W2GzFXisJeremy Allen White talked to Seth Meyers about The Iron Claw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6EJWhpFmacThe Masked Man Show (best wrestling pod in the game) talked to Jeremy Alen White and Zac Efron about The Iron Claw here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/zac-efron-and-jeremy-allen-white-join-to-talk-the/id1211025769?i=1000638991383We apologise for how many times we mixed up the names of the Von Erich brothers on the show. We apologise to Kevin, Kerry and David. As a token of our apology, please enjoy the work of the Kevin’s kids on All Elite Wrestling.

WILL AND HARPER and SILVER SIDE UP BY NICKELBACK: Reviewed! Well done! You made it through another hard week filled with rough days at work and the sniffles coming at you from all angles, be they from bunged up colleagues or flu-fanboy family members. We know you need your weekly dose of the CCCAH to get through the week so here you are. Let’s hoard some lemsip and podcasts and hibernate. We will you in the new year or next week or whenever (disbanding orrr … ?) of course but first, Will and Harper and Silver Side Up get the CCCAH review treatment! A nostalgic childhood album shout and a brand new shiny documentary on Netflix. I guess this episode answers the perennially evocative, grammatically questionable question: where the good times gone? They’re right here Chad. All the stupid fun and all the shit we’ve done indeed. You can listen to Silver Side Up (in full! What a world 2024 is eh) on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bd3l0ss4cz8You can watch the YouTube channel Rocked cover the album Silver Side Up for their “Regretting The Past” series. It is not merely the vicious and withering takedown you might expect, but a well thought through and produced review! Also, due credit to the channel for coining the phrase “triage of suckage” when referring to Creed, Limp Bizkit and Nickelback. I am sure this phrase will have increasing cultural cachet in the years to come: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0Df4LHiSo8JC Rock and Metal Reviews reviewed Silver Side Up in a very pleasant way but also (intentionally?) made a crazy thumbnail I would like to continue to discuss as the days (and years) go on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECKge5_f_YMMy new favourite YouTuber is Mosquito Crucifixion and I consider this review as definitive a guide to the album as it gets: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGx9UXgSZsQYou can be charmed by Will and Harper here on Netflix: https://www.netflix.com/watch/81760197Terry Gross of NPR makes her debut on the CCCAH shownotes?!

Your humble host is starting to think he should have just pitched all these accompanying press materials in tandem with the documentary because some of these just knock it out of the park: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/07/magazine/will-ferrell-harper-steele-interview.htmlDirector Josh Greenbaum spoke to the awesome IndieWire Filmmaker Toolkit podcast.

BACK TO BLACK and HIS THREE DAUGHTERS: Reviewed! Ok folks. It’s a spoiler special. Spoiler: all our episodes are spoiler specials. Except for this one moment on this show when we tip toe up to the edge of a spoiler, peer over and then back up like that Homer Simpson gif. That’s a first. Anyway. “Homer” is our word of the day on today’s show. It’s the motherfucking C times three to the A and H, see! Netflix baby. We’re sponsored by them but in our contract we asked not to be paid. We’re crushing it. Thanks Netflix! Because apparently, movies ending up on one of the various platforms is exactly the same as how movies used to come out on videotape back in the day (???) So let’s review a musical biopic and a slow burning drama. Let’s diversify our cultural palates, as always and as ever. Let’s broaden and/or expand our horizons. Let’s circle back to circling back. Watch His Three Daughters on Netflix.

It’s not a competition but then again everything is, so of course they end up playing some games. Do they get legitimately drunk or not? I will let you decide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nmjAmQOk-8Here is Kevin Hart talking to a host who isn’t Seth Meyers. He has talked to all of them to be fair, so let’s choose someone … hmm, ok, how about … Stephen Colbert, from about a month ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGEM-rZRD90For the benefit of some of the CCCAH who weren’t in the know, here is a bit of a recap of when Kevin Hart briefly fell out of public favour. Not trying to relitigate it (cancel the CCCAH for featuring Kevin Hart!) and not trying not to relitigate it, but it is interesting for the context of his career arc: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/newsbeat-57528258Here is Seth Meyers less drunkenly talking to his old friends Will Ferrell and Harper Steele about their favourite failed SNL sketch:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUlqgqtd-CATweet of the week is back! I hope I can just copy and paste it here without getting distracted ... uh oh, I got distracted. Better ask myself: what is the psychological discomfort I am avoiding right now?

Which basically means it’s Christmas. Can you believe it? Anyway, come back next week. Hopefully time will have slowed down by then, or maybe it will have done a nice little U-Turn. Maybe it will be Brat summer again! Oh Brat Summer. We hardly knew ye. RIP. Tweet of the week 2: https://x.com/charli_xcx/status/1830695037925237025 Hosted on Acast.

JOKER and OASIS SUPERSONIC: Reviewed! Welcome to the podcast you hate to love and love to hate. After SEVEN DAYS OFF we have reunited and we are back. The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised. Unless we finally sort our YouTube channel of course … https://www.youtube.com/@cccappraisalhourSupersonic, the documentary about Oasis, can be watched in its entirety on YouTube. As God intended, in a VHS-deprived so called "society" such as ours: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYsMK_vnA2cHere is a version with Italian subtitles, for those of us with killer Duolingo streaks which sometimes triggers newbies into chastising us for not knowing our new, chosen language yet … learning a language is hard! But hey. O mangi questa minestra o salti dalla finestra: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NQq8H0tnJwThe Rolling Stone Now podcast reacted to the news of the reunion and they did a bang up job, if you ask me. Shout out Brian Hiatt: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/inside-the-oasis-reunion/id1078431985?i=1000667983713Noel is hilarious (Oasis videos commentary highlights): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfNqyjZcleILiam is hilarious (Jonathan Ross appearances highlights): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRUk4g0rusAJoker (directed by Todd Phillips and starring Joaquin Phoenix) can be watched here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Joker-Joaquin-Phoenix/dp/B07YP8JS6JThe trailer for the new Joker film can be watched here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OKAwz2MsJsJoaquin Phoenix spoke to Vanity Fair a fair few years ago! What a fascinating interview and profile. What a fascinating guy. Arthur Fleck on the other hand, well, that is another story entirely …: https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2019/10/joaquin-phoenix-cover-storyThe Blank Check boys Griffin and David also chatted about Joker. Much like us. But with scathing tones mostly untethered and encouraged: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/joker/id981330533?i=1000453291773Little White Lies reviewed Joker! With the classic CCCAH scale, though they might not call it that (if you’re looking for more devil’s advocate when it comes to Joker, you could do worse than tuning in to this week’s episode of the CCCAH): https://lwlies.com/reviews/joker/Social links: https://bere.al/jefflemonadehttps://www.instagram.com/jeffbahlo/https://cccappraisalhour.show/https://twitter.com/cccappraisalpodcccappraisalhour@gmail.comSPOILERS BELOW FOR NEXT WEEK’S CONTENT: CHRISTOPHER’S pitch for JEFFREY: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nmjAmQOk-8JEFFREY’S pitch for CHRISTOPHER:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Review_(The_Bear)Is Brat summer officially over? Are we still your Brat summer faves? Well, listen, if so: we love that for us. We are going to carry on and we are going to journey into the bleakest of midwinters together. As a dysfunctional podcast-affiliated community, which is the best you can hope for when it comes to communal spaces in the hellscape that is 2024: digitally clinging to each other in the cold and broken wreckage we still call "society" here in Britain. Personally, I think a Patreon would right all these wrongs. But hey. You wouldn’t get it. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have a family and a football team to indulge. I’ll see you somewhere down the road. It’s been a fuckin’ pleasure.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
