[SPEAKER_04]: Michael Mera, Radio Entertainment.

[SPEAKER_02]: I had to get it again and now he'll all be here quiet with us.

[SPEAKER_02]: We will start the show.

[SPEAKER_04]: T. M. O. W. S. Classic Friday, flashback when I came back, they said that they were having a discussion on something they wanted to follow up on, which was about sex doll.

[SPEAKER_04]: So I put it on my show, prep for a solid week, a sex doll.

[SPEAKER_04]: follow up who and this is about a television show that uses a soap operas that used sex dolls as well as that was the start but also my dear remember if I say to you the phrase private island beauties do you remember that is that ring a bell

[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, uh, it because that's the guy that brought the sex dolls into, uh, the studio right.

[SPEAKER_04]: And then it broke Oscars back.

[SPEAKER_03]: Remember the member.

[SPEAKER_03]: So realistic that right.

[SPEAKER_03]: You got a back injury.

[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, putting the doll on Rob's lap.

[SPEAKER_05]: That's right, because this was before I had cured myself of being scared of wax figures, so it was like doubly creepy and upsetting.

[SPEAKER_05]: And so we had this whole thing in the studio with this guy, the brought in these ultra realistic sex dolls.

[SPEAKER_05]: But the reason we were talking about it is that they're fun.

[SPEAKER_05]: Uh, the first soap opera to come back.

[SPEAKER_03]: Flutters and surprisingly realistic.

[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, like you're gonna grow in a gross way.

[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_03]: There's a there's a craftsmanship to it.

[SPEAKER_03]: There is.

[SPEAKER_03]: You're just like, and this is, that if I was a lonely man and and I had, I mean, old style crap.

[SPEAKER_05]: The thing that I remember most about it is the way the skin felt.

[SPEAKER_05]: It was really, really weird, because it did have like a little bit of action against the skin.

[SPEAKER_04]: Anyway, we have a robot story or an AI story and news to me that need today, which should be kind of interesting about that, you know, that looks similar.

[SPEAKER_04]: Stameless.

[SPEAKER_05]: Yes.

[SPEAKER_05]: So the first soap opera to come back on an intermittent basis.

[SPEAKER_05]: And you know soap operas as you know, they have a real fast turnaround.

[SPEAKER_05]: So they have to like tape the day before they air is CBS is the bold and the beautiful.

[SPEAKER_05]: And they were trying to figure out the best way they could do intimate scenes in these days of COVID-19.

[SPEAKER_05]: And what they did is they pulled out what was a sex doll or a realistic love doll that they had used in a previous season as a corpse.

[SPEAKER_05]: And they outfitted it to look like one of the female cast members and they shot an intimate scene that along with the guy so it looked like they were in bed together and it was as I believe the phrase was from the executive and the voice I used was surprisingly realistic

[SPEAKER_04]: I would imagine if you shot it the right way, you could make anything look realistic and you certainly aren't going to bring CGI into a soap house to expensive to expense, although you know what it could be wrong about that.

[SPEAKER_03]: I could be wrong about that, but the buttons will not allow Mike, I think the reason why soap opera still are viable is because the cost of producers so cheap.

[SPEAKER_03]: I have the time watching, I have the time to turn it.

[SPEAKER_04]: watching old movies and wanting the days of CGI to go away.

[SPEAKER_04]: I liked it when they used real scenes where they really have to put the effort forward to not paint a movie.

[SPEAKER_04]: I think CGI can be absolutely brilliant, but also would go down with film historians.

[SPEAKER_04]: This is one of the great cop outs.

[SPEAKER_04]: Did you

[SPEAKER_04]: I did.

[SPEAKER_04]: It's almost like your lips moved, you went.

[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_04]: Something sad.

[SPEAKER_04]: Somebody on the way back.

[SPEAKER_05]: Did you mute yourself when you did that?

[SPEAKER_05]: No, because I thought it would be silent.

[SPEAKER_05]: And I think it was silent.

[SPEAKER_04]: I just saw, you know, you know, when you seek cartoons with their lips to go, yeah, yeah, yeah, it was almost like that.

[SPEAKER_04]: But I think CGI by and large is kind of a cop out when it's used to create like the entire town.

[SPEAKER_05]: I think the CGI is like like overly spiced food.

[SPEAKER_05]: If a food is like so hot, you can't even eat it.

[SPEAKER_03]: But I still love the food.

[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but you know what?

[SPEAKER_05]: It's better if it's used sparingly.

[SPEAKER_05]: That's when it's best.

[SPEAKER_05]: Okay, but I think it depends on the subject better.

[SPEAKER_04]: I think it would be an example of, I think, a pretty large scale use of CGI that kind of had to be done.

[SPEAKER_04]: Michael Mera, Radio Entertainment. [SPEAKER_02]: I had to get it again and now he'll all be here quiet with us. [SPEAKER_02]: We will start the show. [SPEAKER_04]: T. M. O. W. S.

[SPEAKER_04]: I think it would be an example of, I think, a pretty large scale use of CGI that kind of had to be done. [SPEAKER_04]: Right. [SPEAKER_04]: That's the way I was going to do that. [SPEAKER_04]: I think it's right. [SPEAKER_04]: But I also think that, you know, I missed that. [SPEAKER_04]: For example, Patton. [SPEAKER_04]: with the uh... with the fighter jets flying over and he's a real fighter jets yeah that was kind of cool you look at an old war movie they did it that way and it was kind of they can also look at it it was absolutely jive but it's the first one you know that's that's the terrible use of c.g.s how dare you mr. president [SPEAKER_05]: But anyway, you know my plane. [SPEAKER_05]: You couldn't use CGI in a soap opera because of expense and also because of the speed they have to turn the product around So they use this surprisingly effective loved all on the bold and the beautiful and they said it's okay But the problem is is they only had the one doll in the prop closet that they used as a corpse So the I thought is by more or share and I think sharing is almost just as bad in this age of corona virus so I [SPEAKER_05]: Well, I mean, you could probably sanitize them. [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, I suppose, but still I think they're more to be sanitized. [SPEAKER_04]: They're made to be cleaned. [SPEAKER_04]: If you know what I mean, you. [SPEAKER_04]: I mean, a power washer or so. [SPEAKER_05]: Oscar, and I mentioned that this could be a boon for the sex doll industry, especially as all the soap lovers come back. [SPEAKER_05]: And I couldn't remember the name of the guy from private island beauties, but I didn't need to because about 45 minutes after the show, Patrick sent me an email. [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, and so this is what's going on with Patrick the gentleman who brought in the sex dolls, including the one that harmed Oscars back, which was a, as I recall, a smaller model meant for traffic. [SPEAKER_03]: I want to be clear. [SPEAKER_03]: Yes, not her fault. [SPEAKER_03]: I'm in bad shape. [SPEAKER_03]: Any man who probably has any type of muscle tone on his body could pick up this doll, no problem. [SPEAKER_03]: I just do that. [SPEAKER_04]: You injured the door, you injured yourself by picking the doll up. [SPEAKER_03]: Well, this is, the weight is as realistic as the skin. [SPEAKER_05]: Let me just give you that. [SPEAKER_05]: But it was, this was a smaller model because I remember it came into the studio in a bag. [SPEAKER_05]: I think the term that was used is spinner. [SPEAKER_05]: I wasn't gonna say it, but you're right. [SPEAKER_03]: It didn't have legs, right? [SPEAKER_03]: No, I'll send you a picture. [SPEAKER_03]: I think I still have it on my phone. [SPEAKER_03]: All right. [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, nice. [SPEAKER_05]: I think I still have it on my phone. [SPEAKER_05]: It's so the email reads, hey, Rob, I am a winner because we were saying, you know, in the virus, there's there's winners and losers. [SPEAKER_05]: And so he's a winner. [SPEAKER_05]: So fun to hear our doll business mentioned on today's show. [SPEAKER_05]: I must say the crazy virus is actually helping my doll biz. [SPEAKER_05]: I'm turning away orders. [UNKNOWN]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_05]: the man. [SPEAKER_04]: Yes, he is it for private use or is he, he goes on, but it might want to. [SPEAKER_04]: Okay. [SPEAKER_04]: Good. [SPEAKER_04]: He goes on now. [SPEAKER_05]: Also a little personal update here. [SPEAKER_05]: Remember he had a lovely female partner that he brought in with him. [SPEAKER_05]: Since we saw you last my business partner, you remember Sarah. [SPEAKER_05]: And I split up. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, yeah. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, no, that's okay with me. [SPEAKER_04]: I remember that. [SPEAKER_04]: I actually remember she went she didn't bring a lot to the table. [SPEAKER_05]: Did she no she didn't I don't know that and also the other story there was two things there was sort of an awkwardness between the two of them and also remember the story of him selling all of his plans to a Japanese manufacturer who stole them. [SPEAKER_05]: So he was at a, it was sort of a moment, wasn't she a little prickly? [SPEAKER_05]: I believe so. [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_00]: Right. [SPEAKER_05]: Anyway, he says nothing was happening in the Doll world and we were getting on each other's nerves. [SPEAKER_05]: So I figured we finalize our orders and call it a day. [SPEAKER_05]: So and for a while. [SPEAKER_04]: But he kept the business. [SPEAKER_05]: Well, he shut down the business. [SPEAKER_05]: He says, I actually got a part-time job in a local ABC store to get me through the booze business is thriving these days because everyone's staying at home. [SPEAKER_05]: The booze business is thriving every day. [SPEAKER_05]: That's true. [SPEAKER_04]: No matter what, it's the bar business that sucks. [SPEAKER_04]: So he says, those businesses find people still want booze, you know, booze business is thriving. [SPEAKER_05]: So he had job security there. [SPEAKER_05]: That was a given. [SPEAKER_05]: But when the virus struck, orders came in from everywhere three exclamation points. [SPEAKER_05]: I just shipped a piece to Australia. [SPEAKER_05]: Is it for individuals primarily that he said he says he goes on to say can't make them fast enough. [SPEAKER_05]: I was trying to quietly walk away from the dolls, but I think I'll ride this wave a bit. [SPEAKER_05]: So yeah, there's a lot of personal use. [SPEAKER_05]: Now, but this is also exciting, he's not selling them to soap operas. [SPEAKER_05]: Well, he says we had a doll of ours featured on a show on the CW, there it is. [SPEAKER_05]: So he's selling that to that. [SPEAKER_03]: You go. [SPEAKER_05]: The show is called Supernatural. [SPEAKER_04]: I've heard a bit. [SPEAKER_05]: I never watched it. [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_05]: And we made a bunch of dolls for a piranha movie. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh my god, that's I wonder if it's the piranha movie. [SPEAKER_04]: I watched a little of it. [SPEAKER_04]: Which one right that there the one it was I think it had Gerry Ogonel in it Yeah, he doesn't say no to anything isn't Gerry Ogonel recent piranha movie right? [SPEAKER_04]: Gerry Ogonel and babe. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, yeah I love substance No, not a great story Did you see anything look like plastic women in this Gerry Ogonel movie? [SPEAKER_04]: Well, I think he could be, you certainly could use that, uh, ask him what, what piranha movie I would love to know that. [SPEAKER_05]: So he says maybe CBS does next exclamation point question mark. [SPEAKER_05]: So maybe the bolt on the beautiful will get in touch with him. [SPEAKER_05]: We can hope so. [SPEAKER_05]: As always love you guys and love the show, the Friday night cocktail shows are fun to drink along with cheers and happy belated father's day to you and Mike and Oscar get busy. [SPEAKER_05]: Keep up the [SPEAKER_05]: So, so happy for him. [SPEAKER_04]: We'll throw a plug in that we are going to be doing our TMOs cocktail party. [SPEAKER_04]: And we will be back in a week and that's our, our, we're taking a collective summer vacation
