Tyler KiwalaHOST
Well, and, and, like, the, uh, I just shared again today, 'cause I love this clip.
Tyler KiwalaHOST
It's, um, Sylvester Stallone being interviewed about Rocky, saying how it's actually a Christian story, and, like, it's a whole thing.
Tyler KiwalaHOST
But the beginning of the movie, it shows Jesus.
Tyler KiwalaHOST
It pans down to him getting pummeled, and it's, like, showing the audience that he's this chosen one.
Steve FallHOST
Yeah, yeah.
Steve FallHOST
Man, you're going, like, Rocky I, right? Like, the ending?
Sean MooneyHOST
Right.
Sean MooneyHOST
But I mean, it, but I'm just thinking from as far as the, an, an entertainment, uh, standpoint here, and then saving something that was a f- complete disaster.
Steve CovinoHOST
It's kind of like, you know, and again, how about this? Remember, I think it was Christmas 85, maybe when.
Steve CovinoHOST
The Russians started cheering for Rocky? I mean, so.
Steve CovinoHOST
Yeah, I do remember that, yeah.
Steve CovinoHOST
No one complained about that.
Rich DavisHOST
Can I tell you? That's a great, you know, end it with that.
Rich DavisHOST
If the Russians could cheer for Rocky.
Rich DavisHOST
And if I could change and you could change.
Rich DavisHOST
We all could change.
Gary GulmanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
He will not take as much of your annual net income as the Shark Tank sharks.
Gary GulmanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Also, Mr. Gazzo from Rocky 1, the loan shark, he offers better terms than the Shark Tank sharks.
Gary GulmanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Do not go on Shark Tank.
Gary GulmanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I want to start a show to counter program against Shark Tank, and I would call it guillotine.
Patrick GriffinGUEST
So maybe what Americans had been experiencing was just a blip.
Patrick GriffinGUEST
And I think it's no mistake that the ultimate film from 1976 is the movie Rocky.
Patrick GriffinGUEST
And the movie Rocky speaks exactly to those themes.
Patrick GriffinGUEST
Can you get off the mat? Can a common guy who's living in this post-industrial Philadelphia, again, it's set in Philadelphia, can this guy actually make it? Can he be a champion once more? And I think that that speaks to a lot of the ways that many Americans are thinking.
Patrick GriffinGUEST
Academics don't obviously think this way.
James KilvingtonHOST
[laughs] I was born in New York.
James KilvingtonHOST
I wrote and starred in Rocky.
James KilvingtonHOST
[laughs] And I also played John Rambo.
James KilvingtonHOST
[laughs]
AndieHOST
It has high quality.
NoraHOST
Listen, the hard work that Sylvester Stallone put into making me a believer in the underdog with Rocky
AndieHOST
had
NoraHOST
been Sylvester Stallone's
Jason CookHOST
Oh, my God.
Jason CookHOST
Oh, God, it's like Rocky 1, the gritty one.
Jason CookHOST
Jesus Christ.
Jason CookHOST
Fucking hell, Hutchie.
Alex DonnoHOST
We got to flip everything.
Alex DonnoHOST
It's like, do you remember in Rocky 2 when Mickey – He had Rocky fight right-handed, even though Rocky was a southpaw.
Alex DonnoHOST
And then at a certain point, he's like, Rock! You're going to switch to your left.
Alex DonnoHOST
And then suddenly Rocky switches back to southpaw, and Apollo Creed was completely befuddled by that.
Alex DonnoHOST
So I don't know if Wake Forest is going to be like, you know what? We're going to make Gio Lopez a righty before Friday.
Alex DonnoHOST
So I hope I'm not giving too much away here.
Michael DelMonteGUEST
And I think that idea is going to work whether he wins or loses.
Michael DelMonteGUEST
So it's kind of like Rocky.
Michael DelMonteGUEST
Rocky loses at the end of one and It's not about the victory.
Michael DelMonteGUEST
It's about, in that film, it's about him going the distance.
Michael DelMonteGUEST
Going the distance, yeah.
9 MINS LATER
Michael DelMonteGUEST
Because that, to me, was the reaction I'm reacting to.
Michael DelMonteGUEST
The fight, for sure, but...
Michael DelMonteGUEST
You see that a little less in the typical Rockies or the fighters.
