SHOW NOTES:
- We get into some Bob’s Burgers-style punny business right away, but don’t worry it’s brief.
- For the second episode in a row, Gingerdead Man (starring Gary Busey) finds its way into our conversation.
- “Roadie Friday” is the day before the day off on tour. Friday is a state of mind.
- TGI Fridays was a really revolutionary idea when it first came about. The premise was that it was a bar that women would feel comfortable visiting. The bar in the movie Cocktail where Tom Cruise recites poetry is based on TGI Fridays.
- Freaky Fridays are when you switch bodies with your parent.
- Freya is the mother of Thor and Friday is named for her the way Thursday is named for him.
- Here’s DJ Pooh running and crying.
- Def Comedy Jam was a show on HBO where urban comedians could perform. The most famous set ever was probably Bernie Mac's first appearance but Chris Tucker's was really good too.
- Phil was wrong here, there is no "other Chris Tucker".
- Deebo Samuel plays football for the San Francisco 49ers. Deebo is not his legal name but he confirms that it came from the movie Friday.
- We note how great Friday’s soundtrack is, with songs like “Keep Their Heads Ringin” by Dr. Dre, “Friday” by Ice Cube & “Hoochie Mama” by 2 Live Crew.
- Jake compares Friday to two of his favorite books Cannery Row & Tortilla Flat (both by John Steinbeck). He also compares it to his new favorite TV show to insist everyone watch: Blindspotting (it’s on Starz so you’ll have to get a promotional subscription and binge the show within a month).
- Other songs discussed include “Little Saint Nick” by The Beach Boys, “American Pie” by Don McLean & “Do You Know the Way to San Jose” by Dionne Warwick.
- Jason sincerely apologizes for unknowingly dead-naming Cara Cunningham.
- Here’s the 2021 hyperpop remix of “Friday” featuring Big Freedia and others.
