Rin Tin Tin

Bang, boom, what you gon' do? John Jay and Rich.

We not talkin' about Rin Tin Tin.

We not talkin' about Lassie.

It's the one and only dog, y'all.

There was other working dogs in as well, but I think that German Shepherd and the Rottweilers probably ranked second at the time was the Shepherd.

Again, you know, like the influencers, you know, Rin Tin Tin and blah, blah, blah, the TV, whatever, which most people listening to this won't remember Rin Tin Tin.

Yeah, they would have no idea.

Yeah, or Max the Bionic Dog.

Where's Agnes?

Here I am, making toast.

Oh, for one brief ecstatic moment, I thought she wasn't here.

Edwin.

At least no one knows I'm Uncle Goodheart, but now, from coast to coast...

The name of Montague will be linked with Trigger and Lassie.

Here's your toast, Rin Tin Tin.

Down, Agnes, down.

He is approximately 12 and a half years old.

long life for a purebred German Shepherd, a Rin Tin Tin looking German Shepherd.

Max is very kind and affable and likable, almost has a lab personality, but he's quick to defend his family, especially Zachary and Trey, our two sons.

One common element with Asher Liza, Lucy, Leo, and Max, when a sketchy motherfucker came to our house or walked into our office or got into our orbit, the dogs, the hair bristled on their neck.

Instead of a well, it was the sewer drain or something.

Rin Tin Tin.

Yep.

That was one I never got into.

So she really falls into that category.

And I thought her story was rather poignant that she had created, uh, this is way, you know, before she does the women and she had created the genre of dog movies before Rin Tin Tin that she had, you know, um, uh, made these movies called with a German shepherd called Strongheart and was making a million dollars a year.

I mean, you can go to YouTube and you could see Strongheart dog show and, you know, they, they, They're riding Strongheart around.

I mean, it's hard not to go down a rabbit hole.

Going through Yonings' Wikipedia page, one of the things it brings up, and this is something that I'm curious, because it's sort of a, to my understanding, at best, an urban legend, unsubstantiated.

But the Susan Orlean claim that Yonings did not actually win the first best actor, that he was the runner-up, and that the actual winner was Rin Tin Tin, the dog.

Did you find anything to substantiate or negate that? No.

So that was a recurring joke across the Academy.

Will you do it? You're someone who, when you take things on, things get done and no one wants to do this.

And he sends back this like glorious statement of like, you know, For me, what I think are the important categories is I would like to nominate for Best Picture any movie made by me.

And under Actor, he puts Rin Tin Tin.

It should be

The Victorians favored names like Dash, Floss, or Gyp In the twentieth century, film and television created surges in certain names.

Lassie, Rin Tin Tin, Benji.

Some owners named their dogs after historical figures, which can be awkward when you have to shout, "Napoleon," across a busy park.

Today, the variety is endless.
