Documenteers: The Documentary Podcast

Dig it, Doccalo. This month, Bob ceases his selfishness and gives back to the co-host by discussing films of their choice. Jonni is happy to finally get Bob’s docs off with this documentary from Finland about a very special punk band. Maybe the closest you might get to a true punk band. Jonni and Bob watch and discuss the 2012 documentary “The Punk Syndrome” by Jukka Kärkkäinen and J-P Passi. The thing about this Finnish punk band? All the members have autism or Down syndrome and they got issues and angst to get out. A movie that takes place in Finland and not one person chugs reindeer blood. You can watch this with the Tubi app. It’s like early Netflix if early Netflix had commercials. Uncensored. You see penis in this one. It’s pretty big. Cut your toenails. It’s important. Keep on Doccin’.

I don’t mean to “SHORT” you, but it’s time for another “SHORTIES” episode LOLOLOLOL. Eldridge joins Bob to discuss more weird short videos that probably don’t qualify as short documentaries by many snobby crybabies. Kim Cattrall was a fan favorite on “Sex and the City”. As if she wasn’t already burrowed into your heart, we found a short video of Kim doing a classic jazz vocal style. That’s right…Kim Cattrall likes to SCAT with her former “Frasier Jazz” musician husband. The internet calls it “Kim Cattrall Scatting” but we prefer its more proper title, “Kim Cattrall Drops Hot Scat Over Smooth Jazz Licks”. Eldridge’s youth crush gets shook in this cringe inducing episode. Is it appropriate to scat on a first date? Has scat EVER been good? Let’s throw Kim Cattrall’s scat around and you can judge for yourself. Keep on Doccin’.

Howdy, Doccalo. That’s a phrase people don’t say in England. Welcome to the Documenteers 5th week! We drop every Monday night and July has five Mondays. And so you have…5th week. Eldridge comes back to sit with Bob and NOT discuss a documentary about race but the underlying theme is very dark and disturbing. Our American selves mostly learned of Jimmy Savile’s super predator activity AFTER he died. Our friends across the pond (maybe that’s you?) grew up with this creepazoid on their televisions. In the year 2000, Louis Theroux did an episode of his BBC documentary show with Jimmy Savile. We’re talking about “When Louis Met…Jimmy” by Will Yapp and Louis Theroux and you can watch this for nothing on Will Yapp’s Vimeo (link below). Rumors had already been going for decades. After he died, the dam broke. A 20 year old film watched through the filter of present day knowledge. It’s hard not to see everything as an acknowledgment of terrible shit. You better believe we will be bringing it this upcoming Creeptober October. Consider this an appetizer. Don’t molest people! Please! Keep on not doing that!

Thank you Doccalo, for all that you’ve done to your bodies. Get ready to hear that a lot. Angela and Bob close out the month of wrestling themed “Shorties” with something that isn’t a promo. It qualifies, based upon the Documenteers book of rules and regulations, as an official short documentary. David Wills loves wrestling. He really fucking loves wrestling. That’s why he went to this sparsely populated gymnasium to see guys like Terry Funk, Jim Crockett, and a couple other guys we don’t recognize discuss some real serious issues regarding professional wrestling. David Wills grabs the microphone and gives a sincere and worthy emotional display that is both funny and endearing. We think Terry Funk might have been a little embarrassed, but Dave’s heart is just too damn big to contain. Now Bob is going around thanking people for what they’ve done to their bodies, and it appears to be putting a strain on his marriage. Soon, Herman the show note writer will take over this podcast and send it to the stratosphere. It’s still real to me, dammit! Keep on Doccin’.

You ready to scrum? Maybe throw in a ruck or two? OK, we capped out on our knowledge of Rugby terms. Welcome to the Documenteers! Drew and Bob are gonna tackle what is probably the most prolific sporting event moment in South African sports history. We’re talking about the South African Springboks Rugby team and it’s tumultuous path to the 1995 Rugby World Cup in Clifford Bestall’s 30 for 30 “The 16th Man”. Narrated by Morgan Freeman (our 2nd Freeman narrated doc) and starring Nelson Mandela, Apartheid, Injustice, Political Imprisonment, Racists and Rugby. How does this historical moment break down? The names in this film we found to be too much fun. Guest starring Bob’s cat, Alice. Let’s put on some little shorts, shove up against each other and listen to some podcast! Apologies to Justice Bekebeke. Keep on Doccin’.

I see you out in those crops looking for some cream. Look no further, Doccalo. Angela and Bob continue “Wrestling Promo Shorties” all July long and we feel that we are learning, and teaching, some real truths all month long. It’s almost time to take on Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat for the Intercontinental Championship and The Macho Man Randy Savage heeds some truths to Ricky, Hulk Hogan, and even President Jack Tunney. Randy Savage could improvise the shit out of some wrestling promos. When he claims to be the cream of the crop? You believe it. Let this legend tell you himself. Nothing means nothing. RIP Mean Gene. Keep on Doccin’.

About two months ago we all exhaled after the completion of one of the biggest television shows of all time. Well...some of us exhaled and then inhaled real deep and then attacked their keyboards/smart phone with a deluge of opinions. We got some ourselves, but we also have lives too busy for constant internet commentary. We speak on the mic through the spirit of the Gods Old and New. Despite the ups and downs, Bob and Angela have a lot of love for the Game of Thrones show and the book series by George RR Martin. The achievement of working on something so big has the power to bring people together in a familial way. Angela and Bob peek behind the scenes for it’s final season with Jeanie Finlay’s HBO original documentary “Game of Thrones: The Last Watch”. It takes a village to build up and burn down a prop village. The hearts and minds of Game of Thrones go much deeper than the famous faces we’ve seen grow older on the show. How is it behind the smoke and mirrors and incest? This might be our nerdiest episode to date. But I bet that next month we will go full blown dork fest. Prepare yourself for the coming culture rot. Practice rolling your eyes. What is dead will never die. What is docced will keep on doccin’.

YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH, STING! Sorry to come in so hot. We continue our “Shorties” July Wrestling Promo series with the mind-blowing introduction of one of the most notorious wrestling legends of all time. “Notorious” and “Legendary” for all the wrong reasons. WCW was ramping up to “War Games”. Sting and the British Bulldog needed some assistance in dealing with the likes of Rick Flair, Sid Vicious, and Harlem Heat. Try not to shit your pants when you’re introduced to...THE SHOCKMASTER. Then try not to pee your pants when you hear Bob and Angela break down this unforgettable wrestling moment. Get your glitter spray and weird loose vest cloak thing ready. You’re about to be SHOCKED! KEEP ON DOCCIN’, STING!

May I interest you in some Doc Sauce® for your bag? Swag? Akil and Bob do a Documenteers first by reviewing a true concert film. A documentation of a concert. You will start to see more of these show up in the future. Two months after we’ve all watched it and thought about it, we sit down with the two and a half hour Netflix experience “Homecoming: A film by Beyoncé”. Word of the 2018 Coachella performance(s) spread far and wide. Does the hype hold up? Driver roll up the partition please to this scorching hot episode of the Documenteers, amiright? If you like it then you should put a ring on this amazing episode. We gon’ slay this doccay. God help me, did I just write that? Is this what my life has come to? Writing episode descriptions for a podcast? I’m a guy named Herman who only makes just enough money to supplement his addiction. I could bring this podcast to new heights if Bob would just wise up and put me on the mic. Obviously nobody running the show is even reading these episode descriptions. It’s my only path to subverting this shit show. The rise of Herman begins here. Let’s talk about Beyoncé. Keep on Doccin’.

It’s the day after the Fourth of July, daddy. We want to bring it with this next block of “Shorties” and we bring it in spades. All July long, Bob and Angela will be breaking down a very important aspect of the greatest of spectacles...professional wrestling promos. Wrestling Promos will be our “Shorties” this month and we open up with a speech from a legend that still strikes a chord today.

It’s practically a public service announcement. We’re talking about the legendary speech by Dusty Rhodes leading up to his match against Rick Flair at Starrcade ‘85 for Mid-Atlantic Wrestling.

We’re talking about hard times, daddy. “Hoahd” times, actually. Some things never change and only wrestling can give you inspiration like this. American Dream, daddy. Keep on Doccin’.
