[0:20] Elliott Mattox: This is Equity One, Broadway's Happy Hour. Pour yourself a drink. Enjoy us as we chat about life, theater, and everything in between. I'm Elliott Mattox.

[0:31] Caleb Dicke: And I'm Caleb Dicke. Join us for your Equity One. Cheers.

[0:39] Elliott Mattox: Woohoo. Cheers. He's risen. This holy, I feel like so fresh and reborn. We have a really special guest this week. Caleb, do you want to do the honors of announcing our guest?

[0:54] Caleb Dicke: You know him. So hard to like for the past 40 days and last week, he's been so hard to get a hold of. But Jesus Christ Superstar. Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, is here with us today.

[1:07] Elliott Mattox: In his most glitter form. He really dressed up. So if you haven't seen it on our social media, um, Caleb, when I did Jesus Christ Superstar in college, for my opening night gift, he gave me several religious thrift store finds.

[1:24] Caleb Dicke: Who gave me a picture of the Last Supper. Leonardo Da Vinci's my classic standard. And then he gave me um a figurine of Jesus, and he broke off some of the fingers so that he was like pointing and going, yes.

[1:37] Elliott Mattox: So I was like, Yes, Jesus. And then sitting with us at the table today is um still here with us. Can you believe it? From Sophamir College. Is a is Sparkle Jesus, glitter Jesus.

[1:50] Caleb Dicke: And he um he's about to be crucified. They're take they're ripping off his robe.

[1:54] Elliott Mattox: Yeah. So I feel like he would have a less of a robe at that point.

[1:57] Caleb Dicke: Yeah, it's a tough day for him. Um he already has the crown of thorns on his head. I mean, the storyline's kind of obscured in this, like in most like religious deals. Like you pick which kind of story you like and make that it.

[2:08] Elliott Mattox: Right. So the artist of this one kind of picked several aspects of the story and then I threw some glitter on it and some rhinestones.

[2:15] Caleb Dicke: Yeah. My favorite part of this show is the frame. It's actually like really so cute.

[2:19] Elliott Mattox: It is really cute. I added the it was already gold. And then I added the silver glitter on it. It's like a really nice touch. But um, so yeah, Jesus himself is sitting with us at this table, and we're so honored. We are book I mean, we're blessed.

[2:32] Caleb Dicke: Yeah, this is a busy day for him. Uh-huh. Like, I can't believe we got him to sit down with us. We got him on Easter. Huge.

[2:39] Elliott Mattox: Yeah. Huge deal. I feel like we like we text him, we said, hey, get out of the tomb now, girlfriend. You up? Great. Inappropriate.

[2:52] Caleb Dicke: Um. If you haven't guessed already, it's Easter! By the time you're listening to this though, it's Easter has passed over for all of our Jewish listeners out there.

[3:07] Elliott Mattox: That was really good.

[3:09] Caleb Dicke: It was good?

[3:10] Elliott Mattox: Yeah. Maybe not. Um. But we are celebrating Easter. We're celebrating um Jesus themed musicals. We're celebrating candy. We're celebrating spring. Mama, we're into it. Spring.

[3:24] Caleb Dicke: It is the most beautiful spring day outside right now. Like, I wish it would stay, but of course it's gonna snow tomorrow.

[3:31] Elliott Mattox: Literally. 60 days today, 50 tomorrow. 50 below, if you know how to do it. Honey. And I'm not talking my I'm not talking Feinsteins, honey.

[3:41] Caleb Dicke: Honey. No, because 54 isn't it yet? 54 below. Yeah, killing me. It's so good. Let me get coasters.

[3:49] Elliott Mattox: Great. Um, so we're gonna first talk about some like Easter traditions from our childhood. And I have some great ones. I I mean, my childhood was pretty awesome with Easter, I feel like.

[4:00] Caleb Dicke: Let's hear it.

[4:01] Elliott Mattox: Um, we always have two different Easter egg hunts. The first one was just our siblings, and they were all like plastic ones that we'd find. And then inside were like dollar bills, honey. Honey, money.

[4:14] Caleb Dicke: Or you would get letters. And so sometimes you'd be like, I got all these letters so I can solve the puzzle for everyone. But Ava got $50. Like literally, there was like $20 bills in some of these.

[4:26] Elliott Mattox: Wow. Um, so then you'd put all the letters out, and then um it would spell something, and it would be like the royal throne, and you'd be like, uh yeah, the toilet. Uh and so you'd go to the toilet and there'd be a thing there, and then I would tell you to go somewhere, and then we would find our Easter egg baskets hidden somewhere like in a car or something.

[4:47] Caleb Dicke: That's so fun.

[4:48] Elliott Mattox: Yeah. My mom's really good at games. I feel like I get that from her.

[4:51] Caleb Dicke: Yeah. That is so fun. We so we did a lot of like the main Easter egg hunts we did were with my dad's family. Because I have the most cousins on that side. So that was a big Easter egg hunt when we were at my like mamma's house.

[5:07] Elliott Mattox: But also the church Easter egg hunt, honey, that was serious because there were all these like big prizes.

[5:16] Caleb Dicke: Did they have it in the park across from the church?

[5:17] Elliott Mattox: Mm-hmm. They had it in like the courtyard of the um. They sometimes had it in the courtyard of like where the city hall is. But at our church, there's where there's now that like big building.

[5:29] Caleb Dicke: Yeah.

[5:29] Elliott Mattox: It used to be just an empty lot. Oh, okay. So they used to like put them there, lots of different places, but you would get like uh you'd like they'd have numbers in them. And so you'd want to get like number one that you could pick all the prizes.

[5:44] Caleb Dicke: You could pick up all the prizes that you wanted.

[5:46] Elliott Mattox: Oh. What do you remember any of your prizes?

[5:48] Caleb Dicke: Oh my god, there were some of those like huge baskets with like toys, yeah, candy, all of it. Um money. One of my best Easter egg um gifts that I got, Easter, whatever.

[6:01] Elliott Mattox: Yeah.

[6:02] Caleb Dicke: Uh there's actually two parts, the two parter, was um Sin City.

[6:06] Elliott Mattox: Wow, yeah, totally.

[6:07] Caleb Dicke: And also my mom knew that I was gay. All that jazz.

[6:11] Elliott Mattox: The movie.

[6:12] Caleb Dicke: Yes. And like I was like 15, 16, probably, and all that jazz is kind of racy. You know they had that come fly away song where everyone's naked and the smoke is going. My mom was probably just like, oh, Fosse, like this, he'll love this.

[6:24] Elliott Mattox: Yeah, yeah, dance.

[6:26] Caleb Dicke: Yeah. Um our Easter money was pretty consistent. It was like our favorite candy, a DVD, and like DVDs were in like 10 bucks.

[6:37] Elliott Mattox: Yeah.

[6:37] Caleb Dicke: Yeah, it was like a solid, like a very solid, simple Easter moment. Would you guys ever color Easter eggs?

[6:44] Elliott Mattox: Oh yeah.

[6:45] Caleb Dicke: Oh yeah. We would do like the dip.

[6:48] Elliott Mattox: The dipper or whatever.

[6:50] Caleb Dicke: How did you how did you drain them?

[6:53] Elliott Mattox: You'd have to get a spoon in pull. Well, you always had the wire, so you could get the wire underneath it. Or you'd have to use a spoon. There's always a little bit of liquid at the bottom of the spoon.

[7:02] Caleb Dicke: Well, we always um we would always blow them too. Like we would do um a big hole in the bottom of the egg.

[7:09] Elliott Mattox: Drain them?

[7:09] Caleb Dicke: Oh no, we did hard-boiled eggs.

[7:11] Elliott Mattox: Oh, so that's what I meant. So I didn't know if you were like draining them from like the cups of the eggs.

[7:14] Caleb Dicke: No, we would drain, we would like get them so that they were just the egg shells.

[7:18] Elliott Mattox: Delicate.

[7:19] Caleb Dicke: Mm-hmm. So we would take the eggs and then we would like you poke a big hole in the bottom of the egg and a smaller hole in the top. And you and you like blow the yolk out the bigger hole. So then you just have like just the shell.

[7:33] Elliott Mattox: But then wouldn't that break if you was outside?

[7:36] Caleb Dicke: These are more for decorations though.

[7:38] Elliott Mattox: Oh.

[7:39] Caleb Dicke: We always had like plastic. We didn't we didn't like hunt?

[7:43] Elliott Mattox: Yeah, we didn't hunt real eggs.

[7:44] Caleb Dicke: Oh, see, that was our second part. We had the plastic egg hunt, and then we had a real egg hunt. But that's why like eggs always go missing because the dogs would eat them.

[7:51] Elliott Mattox: Yeah. Right. And we'd be like, okay, we had like four dozen, so like, and we would have to like count them. Last year I made uh Lady Gaga egg, and it was all rhinestones.

[8:01] Caleb Dicke: And I also did a Marie egg toinette egg.

[8:06] Elliott Mattox: Why not Marie into an egg? It's in the past. But like we would take a candle and we would burn the wax on top of it. And so this one was like a bloody one. It was like you know, just like and no egg head.

[8:22] Caleb Dicke: High art.

[8:22] Elliott Mattox: Yeah. I love that. Marie and to an egg. They're both a little eggy.

[8:27] Caleb Dicke: Yeah. It's a yolk.

[8:29] Elliott Mattox: It's a yolk.

[8:30] Caleb Dicke: Yeah. I wanted to say something like poach. Like, you're poaching me, but like I get it.

[8:35] Elliott Mattox: Your brain scrambled.

[8:37] Caleb Dicke: I understand. That was my next one. You're just so runny.

[8:42] Elliott Mattox: Like all these puns.

[8:47] Caleb Dicke: Uh they just come easy to me.

[8:50] Elliott Mattox: Easy.

[8:51] Caleb Dicke: Oh, reason, yeah. Like yeah, how you want them done.

[8:53] Elliott Mattox: Yeah. That was a hard bowl joke.

[8:59] Caleb Dicke: So we have all of these lovely candies in front of us.

[9:03] Elliott Mattox: Yeah, which my teeth are just rotting out right now. I love it. My favorite part of Easter is the candy!

[9:09] Caleb Dicke: Hey, fucking them. The best part about this is we're gonna review the candies, and then all the candies are gonna be half priced tomorrow. So when you go to buy it, you'll know which ones to buy, honey.

[9:19] Elliott Mattox: Yes. Look. So I have three different um Easter candies that are like kind of iconic. Very. Um the one the one that I will say is missing are peeps. Peeps are iconic, but you don't like peeps.

[9:30] Caleb Dicke: I don't like peeps, too. Like they make a large clump in my stomach.

[9:36] Elliott Mattox: Yeah. Yeah. We wanna part of passica. So, um, should we start? Um, how should we start? Should we start like alphabetically?

[9:44] Caleb Dicke: Sure. Okay, so uh this is one of the more classic Easter candies, I would say. We have in front of us Cadbury cream eggs. Now, did you grow up having these when you were a kid?

[9:56] Elliott Mattox: Um no. I don't think so. We haven't we were more of like an Easter bunny chocolate and they were hollow.

[10:03] Caleb Dicke: Oh sure. Do you eat the ears or do you go for the feet, or what do you eat first for the Easter bunny?

[10:07] Elliott Mattox: A lot of times we wouldn't do the e we wouldn't do the chocolate bunnies.

[10:10] Caleb Dicke: Oh yeah. So I've always been I've always been more of a like a fruit candy kind of fan. More so than chocolate.

[10:16] Elliott Mattox: So but but the chocolate bunny right for the ear.

[10:20] Caleb Dicke: Yeah.

[10:20] Elliott Mattox: Yeah. Let's take it. Um this is a lovely little star on this Cadbury symbol. There was a moment, I think so. There was a moment where I love was obsessed with Cadbury eggs, like once a year specifically, like was obsessed with them.

[10:35] Caleb Dicke: Oh yeah.

[10:35] Elliott Mattox: Um I love it. But I haven't had one in a really long time. Okay, so we take a bite.

[10:41] Caleb Dicke: Yeah, so cheers.

[10:42] Elliott Mattox: I don't want to eat too much because then I'm just gonna like to do it. Right, we're gonna try again. So we're going for the top. The shorter in the tip, you might say.

[10:49] Caleb Dicke: Mm-hmm.

[10:50] Elliott Mattox: Okay. Good consistency in the melty. When I went for the top, all of the inside, the cream in the kind of like fell to the bottom. So I'm gonna stick my I'm gonna stick my tongue in this hole and just kind of like the cream.

[11:02] Caleb Dicke: Like comes me of like a cherry cordial kind of.

[11:09] Elliott Mattox: Mm-hmm. Very rich. It's just delicious as I remember.

[11:13] Caleb Dicke: Mm-hmm. I like hollow.

[11:15] Elliott Mattox: I know you're not getting as much chocolate, but I like hollow chocolates more than like full chocolates for some reason.

[11:20] Caleb Dicke: Yeah. They're very rich. I can't finish it.

[11:23] Elliott Mattox: No. I mean I might save it for later. But I think it's just like it's pretty much just like syrup. Just liquid sugar. Very different. It's a classic. You know what I mean? You can't like not have you don't mess with.

[11:38] Caleb Dicke: Yeah. Um, next we have if you want to go to our fruity or do you want to do another chocolate?

[11:43] Elliott Mattox: Let's do let's do this one.

[11:45] Caleb Dicke: Okay. So next we have a melt chocolate Reese's peanut butter egg. I love these so much.

[11:53] Elliott Mattox: Candy peanut butter, I'm like such a Debbie Downer.

[11:56] Caleb Dicke: Interesting. It's not my favorite.

[11:57] Elliott Mattox: Well, that's this is problematic because the reason I love the Reese's egg is because there's more peanut butter in these than there are in just the normal Reese's.

[12:06] Caleb Dicke: Oh yeah.

[12:07] Elliott Mattox: Um not as beautiful of an egg.

[12:09] Caleb Dicke: No.

[12:10] Elliott Mattox: I wouldn't call this an egg shape. As much as like a a dove bar in the eye. You know, like a deal.

[12:14] Caleb Dicke: Yeah.

[12:16] Elliott Mattox: Oh, but like, smell that peanut butter.

[12:20] Caleb Dicke: Like, I know.

[12:21] Elliott Mattox: I love it. You're dreading it.

[12:24] Caleb Dicke: Okay. This is very melty. It melts quicker than the other one.

[12:28] Elliott Mattox: Yeah.

[12:28] Caleb Dicke: Yeah.

[12:29] Elliott Mattox: Okay. I'm taking a bite of this tip one again. Very soft. Very soft. But when I eat a Reese's clap, I'm almost like, damn.

[12:40] Caleb Dicke: I love this, even though I hate it.

[12:42] Elliott Mattox: Are you getting that with this egg?

[12:44] Caleb Dicke: Yeah.

[12:44] Elliott Mattox: Mm-hmm. Yeah. You can't go wrong. I love Reese's peanut butter so much. I wish I could just buy it.

[12:51] Caleb Dicke: That's too much of a good thing.

[12:53] Elliott Mattox: Mm-hmm. Like, I'm gonna cut. I don't like how grainy it feels.

[12:59] Caleb Dicke: I love that. And usually I like creamy peanut butter, but I love crunchy peanut butter.

[13:06] Elliott Mattox: I like, well. I've been getting into more of like cashew butter and almond butter. And even when they're creamy, they still kind of have that like this like grainy texture.

[13:14] Caleb Dicke: Do you want the rest of them?

[13:15] Elliott Mattox: Which is good. No, I don't. Oh my god.

[13:17] Caleb Dicke: Okay. I'm gonna wash this down with some of this monkey gold monkey beer.

[13:20] Elliott Mattox: Golden monkey, Victory Golden Monkey. It kind of tastes like that delirium beer with the pink elephant on it.

[13:26] Caleb Dicke: Uh you know what you're talking about.

[13:27] Elliott Mattox: Yeah. Hypno beer. I forget. It has that very rich flavor. So now we're moving on to one of my favorite Easter candies. This is this is, I think, my favorite Easter candy.

[13:38] Caleb Dicke: And I I was saying to you earlier, this has kind of become the iconic Easter candy, I think, of our generation.

[13:46] Elliott Mattox: I would totally agree. You know them. You love him. We're talking about Starburst motherfucking jelly beans.

[13:52] Caleb Dicke: A fucking men.

[13:54] Elliott Mattox: Jesus Christ. He is like, he says, I agree. He's right here. He said, I created them. He agrees. Thank you so much. He's like, please.

[14:03] Caleb Dicke: Like they are so good. I mean, I've already we've already been just eating handfuls of them. So now we're gonna what are these colors?

[14:10] Elliott Mattox: So is purple like grape?

[14:12] Caleb Dicke: Purple is great.

[14:13] Elliott Mattox: Oh, let me get the um the the packaging.

[14:15] Caleb Dicke: Yeah. I love on like candies when they put the name on it and they're so tiny. What I really love, we're just talking about candy right now, is Swedish fish. If you pull it, it says Swedish on it.

[14:25] Elliott Mattox: Shut up, I did not know that.

[14:28] Caleb Dicke: Yeah. So next time we eat a Swedish fish, I like to always pull them so you can really read the Swedish.

[14:42] Elliott Mattox: Um the original we have cherry.

[14:44] Caleb Dicke: Great, let's try that one right now.

[14:46] Elliott Mattox: Which is the red.

[14:47] Caleb Dicke: Solemn classic.

[14:49] Elliott Mattox: Classic.

[14:49] Caleb Dicke: Mm-hmm.

[14:50] Elliott Mattox: We have um orange.

[14:53] Caleb Dicke: Where do you find that one?

[14:54] Elliott Mattox: Which is really good.

[14:56] Caleb Dicke: Yeah.

[14:56] Elliott Mattox: Orange is probably my least favorite.

[14:58] Caleb Dicke: Mm-hmm.

[14:59] Elliott Mattox: They're very orangey.

[15:00] Caleb Dicke: It's very orangey though.

[15:02] Elliott Mattox: I like the orange Starbursts.

[15:04] Caleb Dicke: Oh, no.

[15:05] Elliott Mattox: I think I like.

[15:08] Caleb Dicke: And then we have uh we have strawberry, which is the pink.

[15:11] Elliott Mattox: See, I love I love all pink flavors.

[15:14] Caleb Dicke: I have them when they're watermelon.

[15:15] Elliott Mattox: I don't love watermelon.

[15:16] Caleb Dicke: Oh ideal.

[15:18] Elliott Mattox: Um then we have lemon.

[15:20] Caleb Dicke: Oh, I love a lemon.

[15:21] Elliott Mattox: Mm-hmm.

[15:22] Caleb Dicke: So so good.

[15:25] Elliott Mattox: Refreshing.

[15:26] Caleb Dicke: And that's that literally tastes like the Starburst.

[15:29] Elliott Mattox: Mm-hmm.

[15:30] Caleb Dicke: We got green apple, my favorite.

[15:33] Elliott Mattox: I wish it was like a lime.

[15:36] Caleb Dicke: I'm so picky.

[15:37] Elliott Mattox: I love green apple.

[15:38] Caleb Dicke: You are very picky.

[15:40] Elliott Mattox: But a green apple is good.

[15:41] Caleb Dicke: That one actually tastes like a green apple.

[15:42] Elliott Mattox: Like delicious.

[15:43] Caleb Dicke: Candy green apple, but then we got grape.

[15:45] Elliott Mattox: Dark purple.

[15:47] Caleb Dicke: Sometimes tastes like medicine.

[15:49] Elliott Mattox: Mm-hmm.

[15:50] Caleb Dicke: But my favorite thing is to just get a handful of all different flavors and then just show them and eat.

[15:56] Elliott Mattox: Now so I got the classic ones.

[16:00] Caleb Dicke: But there was one variety that was very intriguing.

[16:04] Elliott Mattox: And because you were coming over, I knew that this was the one that I should get.

[16:09] Caleb Dicke: It's an all all red, pink, yeah.

[16:13] Elliott Mattox: So it's cherry, strawberry, and watermelon.

[16:17] Caleb Dicke: How do we there's like there's a dark one, obviously that's like why don't you try it let's try all three?

[16:24] Elliott Mattox: Well, I think the dark one might be cherry.

[16:27] Caleb Dicke: No, strawber you said strawberry?

[16:31] Elliott Mattox: Strawberry, cherry, and watermelon.

[16:35] Caleb Dicke: I can't like there's two light ones.

[16:37] Elliott Mattox: Yeah, those are three dumplings.

[16:38] Caleb Dicke: Yeah, totally yep.

[16:39] Elliott Mattox: Okay, so I'm trying the lightest pink one right now.

[16:42] Caleb Dicke: I think it's just strawberry.

[16:46] Elliott Mattox: Mm-hmm.

[16:46] Caleb Dicke: That's the strawberry for the palette's all a mess.

[16:49] Elliott Mattox: Mm-hmm.

[16:50] Caleb Dicke: Let me do a glance.

[16:51] Elliott Mattox: That actually might be the watermelon.

[16:53] Caleb Dicke: I think that was watermelon.

[16:54] Elliott Mattox: That dark one tasted like strawberry to me.

[16:57] Caleb Dicke: Really?

[16:57] Elliott Mattox: But that's so weird.

[16:58] Caleb Dicke: Like, why would they have the cherry rather be the darkest on this one be?

[17:02] Elliott Mattox: I honestly can't tell anymore.

[17:03] Caleb Dicke: I feel like the middle one.

[17:06] Elliott Mattox: I don't like.

[17:07] Caleb Dicke: I think that's watermelon.

[17:10] Elliott Mattox: The mid medium red.

[17:11] Caleb Dicke: Uh-huh.

[17:12] Elliott Mattox: There's the watermelon, I think.

[17:15] Caleb Dicke: Yeah, and then that's the classic cherry, the dark red.

[17:21] Elliott Mattox: But very good.

[17:22] Caleb Dicke: Yeah.

[17:22] Elliott Mattox: And I knew I know that you love the the red and pinks.

[17:25] Caleb Dicke: I do.

[17:26] Elliott Mattox: There's solid childhood flavors if you like.

[17:29] Caleb Dicke: Uh huh.

[17:48] Caleb Dicke: I think I do too.

[17:49] Elliott Mattox: I don't know, like I said, too much of a good thing.

[17:51] Caleb Dicke: I don't know.

[19:13] Caleb Dicke: So today here's what I got.

[19:16] Elliott Mattox: I have my shirt from Sister Act.

[19:18] Caleb Dicke: The musical.

[19:20] Elliott Mattox: So this is a different kind of show shirt because it's a V-neck.

[19:20] Caleb Dicke: Yeah.

[19:20] Elliott Mattox: Show shirt.

[19:24] Caleb Dicke: Show shirts are very rarely V-necks.

[19:27] Elliott Mattox: Um I feel like a lot of women's show shirts are like a deep V.

[19:30] Caleb Dicke: Yeah.

[19:31] Elliott Mattox: But um But rarely do they sell like Unisex V-Nex.

[19:36] Caleb Dicke: It was a fad back then.

[19:37] Elliott Mattox: Mm-hmm.

[19:38] Caleb Dicke: 2000.

[19:39] Elliott Mattox: It really was in like 2019.

[19:41] Caleb Dicke: Um this, so it's it's a light blue shirt and it has the sister act logo.

[19:46] Elliott Mattox: It says like gloriously Broadway, Sister Act the musical.

[19:49] Caleb Dicke: And it's shiny.

[19:51] Elliott Mattox: It is shiny.

[19:52] Caleb Dicke: My complaint with the shirt is that it hasn't held up very well.

[19:56] Elliott Mattox: Like the shine has gone away, really, except for on like lack of luster, you might say.

[20:01] Caleb Dicke: Like like you see how how bright the S is?

[20:04] Elliott Mattox: Yeah.

[20:05] Caleb Dicke: A lot of the other artwork for Sister Act was like bright red, like glitter.

[20:09] Elliott Mattox: Like really intense.

[20:11] Caleb Dicke: Um so that's my that's my complaint with this one.

[20:13] Elliott Mattox: But I like the shirt, it's very comfortable.

[20:15] Caleb Dicke: This is like this is one of my go-to, like um, like around the house shirts.

[20:20] Elliott Mattox: Right, yeah.

[20:20] Caleb Dicke: Um, it has a loose fit, it breathes, um, it breathes.

[20:24] Elliott Mattox: Yeah, and that V-neck, I just rarely wear them anymore anymore.

[20:29] Caleb Dicke: But I used to wear the shit out of a V all the time.

[20:31] Elliott Mattox: Honey, you can't.

[20:32] Caleb Dicke: I remember when V neck used to be Hellmy.

[20:34] Elliott Mattox: They were too gay for me at one point because I was like, I couldn't wear them in high school, but then when I got to college.

[20:39] Caleb Dicke: Yes, Jesus.

[20:41] Elliott Mattox: Yes.

[20:41] Caleb Dicke: V V is across the V pod, yeah.

[20:45] Elliott Mattox: V neck.

[20:47] Caleb Dicke: Then I have my Godspell shirt.

[20:51] Elliott Mattox: Uh-huh.

[20:51] Caleb Dicke: Uh huh.

[20:52] Elliott Mattox: Which you have this shirt.

[20:53] Caleb Dicke: I do.

[20:54] Elliott Mattox: It's actually Sydney's.

[20:55] Caleb Dicke: I did have this shirt.

[20:57] Elliott Mattox: I think I still have it.

[20:58] Caleb Dicke: Okay.

[20:59] Elliott Mattox: Oh, you stole Sidney's.

[21:00] Caleb Dicke: I stole Sidney's.

[21:01] Elliott Mattox: Or something happened like that.

[21:02] Caleb Dicke: Somehow it got into my position and kept it.

[21:05] Elliott Mattox: Yeah.

[21:05] Caleb Dicke: It's a good shirt.

[21:06] Elliott Mattox: Yeah.

[21:06] Caleb Dicke: This is a cool shirt because again, it's like the I like when shirts don't necessarily look like a show shirt.

[21:12] Elliott Mattox: They kind of have like an interesting perspective.

[21:14] Caleb Dicke: So on this one, this is from the most recent revival.

[21:17] Elliott Mattox: You have your classic Godspell, like um Jesus kind of the classic, like the old original, yeah.

[21:24] Caleb Dicke: The original.

[21:25] Elliott Mattox: But it's on it, it's like an all-over print on the front.

[21:29] Caleb Dicke: Um in in black and gray with a red, a red cheek.

[21:33] Elliott Mattox: Uh-huh.

[21:34] Caleb Dicke: And uh, you got Godspell New York City.

[21:37] Elliott Mattox: Oh, it says New York, a beautiful city.

[21:39] Caleb Dicke: Oh, yeah.

[21:40] Elliott Mattox: That new.

[21:42] Caleb Dicke: Yeah.

[21:42] Elliott Mattox: So like I gotta say, really solid work, Godspell on designing this shirt.

[21:48] Caleb Dicke: It's visually interesting, it's fun, the fit is great, and um this is the clear winner of this week's merch match.

[21:55] Elliott Mattox: I love that one too.

[21:56] Caleb Dicke: Yeah, um, and five out of five.

[21:58] Elliott Mattox: Ace.

[21:58] Caleb Dicke: Totally.

[21:59] Elliott Mattox: And yes.

[22:02] Caleb Dicke: Going back to that revival, I love that revival.

[22:05] Elliott Mattox: So good.

[22:05] Caleb Dicke: I remember seeing that revival on spring break, and just like, it was such a fucking party.

[22:11] Elliott Mattox: Yeah.

[22:11] Caleb Dicke: And she had those sunglasses on during Turnback Old Man, and like underneath those sunglasses were a second pair of sunglasses, and I lost my shit.

[22:18] Elliott Mattox: It was, and it was such the jam.

[22:21] Caleb Dicke: And there was a communion during intermission.

[22:24] Elliott Mattox: It was so good.

[22:26] Caleb Dicke: Um yeah, great.

[22:28] Elliott Mattox: And I also I love Sister Act.

[22:30] Caleb Dicke: I like Act Two of Sister Act more than act one.

[22:32] Elliott Mattox: There's a lot of exposition to get through.

[22:34] Caleb Dicke: I definitely don't have a bootleg of Sister Act, and it definitely wasn't our favorite thing to watch sophomore year.

[22:41] Elliott Mattox: Oh, yeah, yeah.

[22:42] Caleb Dicke: Because Patina, obviously.

[22:44] Elliott Mattox: Yeah, we definitely didn't watch it every other day.

[22:47] Caleb Dicke: It wasn't fabulous.

[22:48] Elliott Mattox: Baby.

[22:52] Caleb Dicke: Onward to uh my movie moment.

[22:55] Elliott Mattox: We haven't had one in a while.

[22:56] Caleb Dicke: We haven't.

[22:57] Elliott Mattox: Killer's movie moments, it's hard to keep it into like without chopping it up, you know what I mean?

[23:05] Caleb Dicke: I mean, you have so many movie moments.

[23:07] Elliott Mattox: I do.

[23:08] Caleb Dicke: Um.

[23:09] Elliott Mattox: So recently I've been reading books and seeing the movies.

[23:11] Caleb Dicke: Mm-hmm.

[23:13] Elliott Mattox: And so I read A Wrinkle in Time.

[23:15] Caleb Dicke: Awful.

[23:15] Elliott Mattox: God awful.

[23:16] Caleb Dicke: The book?

[23:17] Elliott Mattox: Yes.

[23:18] Caleb Dicke: It was just one of the.

[23:20] Elliott Mattox: I guess it's just meant for, you know, like middle school kids, because it took me a while to get through that 12 chapter book.

[23:27] Caleb Dicke: Took me about like two weeks, maybe.

[23:29] Elliott Mattox: But saw the movie.

[23:30] Caleb Dicke: And it was practically probably worse.

[23:33] Elliott Mattox: I think they were like thinking that like the visual effects were just gonna get them through, or like having like Oprah and those other two women.

[23:41] Caleb Dicke: Mm-hmm.

[23:42] Elliott Mattox: And it just it didn't do it for me.

[23:44] Caleb Dicke: So sadly, A Wrinkle in Time is one of the lower sides of movies that I've seen lately.

[23:51] Elliott Mattox: But I did read Ready Player One, which is my second book.

[23:54] Caleb Dicke: Love the book, Ready Player One.

[23:55] Elliott Mattox: I would suggest reading that one.

[23:57] Caleb Dicke: Go through it in the same you can really bust that one out.

[24:00] Elliott Mattox: And I'm seeing that one tonight, so I will give you a review on Ready Player One.

[24:04] Caleb Dicke: I am worried because the previews have shown things that weren't in the book, and someone else said the only thing that the movie hasn't come with the book is the title.

[24:13] Elliott Mattox: So if that's good or bad, who knows?

[24:16] Caleb Dicke: I've also I've heard the movie is spectacular.

[24:19] Elliott Mattox: I've only heard great things about it.

[24:20] Caleb Dicke: I haven't read any sing uh like acclaimed review, like I've heard read opinions, but no reviews.

[24:28] Elliott Mattox: So I'm trying to think what other oh, but so that and then the last movie.

[24:33] Caleb Dicke: I have not read the book, but I want to.

[24:35] Elliott Mattox: One of my favorite movies so far of The Spring, Love, Simon.

[24:39] Caleb Dicke: Oh, sure.

[24:40] Elliott Mattox: Great movie.

[24:42] Caleb Dicke: Cried in it.

[24:43] Elliott Mattox: The soundtrack is very amazing.

[24:45] Caleb Dicke: Okay.

[24:46] Elliott Mattox: And that's on Spotify.

[24:48] Caleb Dicke: Or iTunes wherever you're.

[24:48] Caleb Dicke: Or iTunes wherever you're.

[24:50] Elliott Mattox: I love that.

[24:50] Elliott Mattox: I love when you like see a movie and then like immediately you're like, I need the soundtrack.

[24:53] Caleb Dicke: I remember when I saw Slumdog Millionaire.

[24:56] Elliott Mattox: Uh-huh.

[24:56] Caleb Dicke: I was like, I was like, that music is so good.

[25:00] Elliott Mattox: Yep.

[25:00] Caleb Dicke: And I like went immediately to Barnes and Noble and bought the soundtrack.

[25:04] Elliott Mattox: Yep.

[25:06] Caleb Dicke: I love that.

[25:06] Elliott Mattox: Yeah.

[25:06] Caleb Dicke: So those are my quick and dirty movies and books moment.

[25:10] Elliott Mattox: So um Wrinkle in Time not so great.

[25:13] Caleb Dicke: Not so good.

[25:14] Elliott Mattox: Interesting.

[25:16] Caleb Dicke: I what I do know about Wrinkle of Time is not much, but they were doing like these promotions with a lot of these drag race queens where they would like do Wrinkling Time inspired looks.

[25:26] Elliott Mattox: Yeah.

[25:27] Caleb Dicke: And those were all really cool.

[25:28] Elliott Mattox: Why I can see like the costume, like it was like avant garde and like you know, like, oh, we have rhinestone eyebrows.

[25:34] Caleb Dicke: Yeah.

[25:35] Elliott Mattox: Which is like fierce, but then like that can only take you so far.
