Last Call

Tonight we raise a glass to Lenny Von Dohlen - Harold Smith from Twin Peaks, or Miles Harding from Electric Dreams (among many other roles). Due to the complete collapse of Canada today and it's complete degeneration into third wold status, Stephen "Deleted_Scenes" Otten offered to step in for my regularly scheduled guest bartender trapped behind the Maple Curtain. So, tonight I am going to bring you a watch party to honor Lenny Von Dohlen (and, frankly, one Stephen and I had been planning anyway), the Twin Peaks prequel film, Fire, Walk With Me.

Yesterday, Netter and I binged the second half of Stranger Things Season 4 and wanted to share a hot take. Let me know what you thought in the comments!

Turnabout is fair play, and I wanted to return the favor, by way of a bit of parody of Ryan's "Rising Star" formula, with a bit of my own flair. I'm not sure if I'll be releasing this video in this form, but if I get lazy, this is it. So do consider following Roger on Twitter (@RyanRogerAthay) and subscribe to his channel (@Ryan Roger Athay )

He likes to shout out other YouTubers as "Rising Stars," but I can't help but think he is every bit as deserving (if not more so) of that title. So, you know what I do: I use my Friday Night stream as an opportunity to drink and chat with someone I want to get to know and call it "content!" But, seriously, I like his videos and his Tweets, and I think you will, too. Then again, he likes mine, so he may have somewhat questionable judgement. We'll find out together!

" Korea. Dominican. Three tours in 'Nam. Hell, this old ass in the grass bulldog's carrying around so much shrapnel he can't pass through an airport metal detector." Heartbreak Ridge is a 1986 film produced, directed, and starring Clint Eastwood. The story centers on a U.S. Marine nearing retirement who gets a platoon of undisciplined Marines into shape and leads them during the American invasion of Grenada in 1983. The title comes from the Battle of Heartbreak Ridge in the Korean War, where Eastwood's character had earned the Medal of Honor. Why this film tonight? Why not? It came up in conversation last week, and we all thought it was a great idea, and Big Al said he wanted in so ... here we are folks! Oo-rah and Semper Fi!

Regular followers should recognize this clip as a common answer to "What'chu sippin' on?"

As I welcome back Stephen "Deleted_Scenes" Otten, I realize this much beloved member of the community, frequent guest bartender, hardest working Blue Wrench in YouTube, has always co-hosted as a subject matter expert, but never just to hang out, drink and chant. So tonight we'll get to know this awesome guy, talk about some of his favorite films, his YouTube channel and whatever comes up!

I am so excited by this series of interviews I've been doing with YouTube personalities that I really admire; it is a service to my listeners to share them, and I want these channels to excel (so subscribe to them!) Tonight I am finally catching up with Pops on Pop Culture and I couldn't pass up the opportunity. His busy schedule precludes the regular Friday Night Last Call time slot, so this is a Thursday Night Special! I hope you enjoy and check out Pops' channel (linked below).

I made an announcement earlier this year to say I was planning a series of sit-down interviews with various talent I have encountered since I began streaming, and that I think my audience would appreciate and enjoy. Tonight we will be having drinks with the author and outlaw, Adega. I'll be asking him to tell us a little about his stories, what his favorite drink is, and we'll see where the conversation goes from there. Be sure to pick up a copy of his book, "Evolution" (https://www.amazon.com/Evolution-Adega/dp/1645305953) and you can thank me later!

Two week sago we had a celebratory rewatch and drinking game commemorating Fred Ward (https://youtu.be/MFf3sJW5wsQ) and tonight we celebrate Ray Liotta, also gone far too soon. I ran a poll in my MeWe Group (https://mewe.com/join/fridaynightlastcall) and you guys decided we would watch GoodFellas (1990) tonight. Unlike our last rewatch, there is already a drinking game in existence for this film; I'm not really surprised, so this is what we're going with: https://drinkwhen.ca/project/goodfellas-drinking-game/ As usual, I'll be simulcasting the film on Kosmi link here (https://kosmi.app/o4h9ka) and pinned to the top of the chat, for those of you that don't have your own physical copy of the film. It is streaming on HBO Max, as well.

A couple of weeks ago, we talked about the Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard trial and this whole thing has just fascinated me. I’m kind of a law geek – I’ve never taken a law class, but I have studied it in an amateur fashion and voraciously consume stories from my lawyer friend about cases he’s been on over the years. But this case is not just about legal ins-and-outs, nor is it just about celebrity gossip. To me, it’s about #MeToo gone wrong and how “listen to victims” became “believe all women” and ultimately apexed at misandry. We’re going to drink and discuss these light, relaxing topics. And joining us tonight is a returning friend, Maria of Maria w/Tea & Telly. She is interested in this topic, too, and she had wanted to be here for our last talk about it, but she is a very busy YouTuber. Her channel following has more than doubled since then, so we are so glad she could care out some time for us tonight!

It seems every week we are losing more and more icons from our childhood. Tonight we celebrate Fred Ward with a watch party of one of his more niche films: Remo Williams; The Adventure Begins ... Sadly, for fans of Fred Ward, the adventure ended last week. But, this is a celebration, so tonight I declare a Drinking Game, and I'll explain at the top of the show. As usual, I'll have a Kosmi link pinned to the top of the chat for those of you that don't have your own physical copy of the film. It is streaming on Tubi, as well.

I promised we’d revisit this show when the season was over and … I didn’t realize there were only two episodes left! But here were! So, we welcome back Stephen "Deleted_Scenes" Otten as our special guest bartender as we return to Wabang, Wyoming to catch up on Royal Abbot, his family, and all the crazy stuff gong on around them. But tonight’s show has a double purpose as I hit a person milestone growing my channel: We hit 400 Subscribers! So, here’s what I’m going to do: Any YouTuber who stops by my chat and wants to, I’ll send you a Streamyard link to stop in, give your elevator pitch, and see if we can’t get everyone in the chat to subscribe to you. You guys helped me get this far, and I want to give something back. And I’d ask you start with… Guest Bartender - Stephen "Deleted_Scenes" Otten: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbp6tfzWCu3UfszdUPuaRUQ Designated Driver - Aged Boomer: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiV_N2dZeLS1vW7eBlIZdmA Bouncer - @Netter's Network Buy me a drink: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/thegrotshoppe

We welcome @Wolf10media back as our special guest bartender because ... ell, @Aged Boomer told me he was the one who requested this rewatch (That's why he's my designated driver! Anyway, that's why we are rewatching and discussing this 1989 Cult Classic. As with all rewatches on this channel, I'll be hosting a watch party on another platform - link will be pinned to the top of the chat - but I always recommend you "OWN PHYSICAL MEDIA," and I'll give countdown to synch up your own copy (which will allow you to use this YT video as a companion track on a future watch. It is also available on Tubi right now (https://tubitv.com/movies/663540/blind-fury), with commercials. If you go that route. Hit "pause" on this video and restart when the commercials are over.

We welcome Stephen "Deleted_Scenes" Otten back as our special guest bartender as he brings us tonight's topic. He said he wanted to talk about this new show from Amazon: Outer Range. I have to say, with all the destruction of beloved franchises we've seen recently, we've been saying "Just make new stuff!" Well, that's what they did! It's so new, it's so original, I don't even know how to describe it ... but we're going to try.

It's been fun doing a running commentary on social media this week about the most surprisingly interesting case since that kid in Wisconsin, so I wanna talk about this. And drink. You almost have to. Have you been watching the trial this week? If so, come share your thoughts. No? That's okay; I'll catch you up. I'll tell you this up front: This week has REALLY made me appreciate what I have in Netter of Netter's Network (channel link below) all the more. We'll get into that and much more. #AmberTurd #MePoo #JusticeForJohnnyDepp #JohnnyDepp #AmberHeard As usual, Netter will be my trusty Blue Wrench bouncer and Aged Boomer my designated driver, but our special guest bartender is Stephen "Deleted_Scenes" Otten.

It's been a couple of weeks so let's get back to it. Time to drink! Er, I mean, it's time to hang out and chat with all of you ... and drink. I have a couple topics I might like to cover tonight, but you absolutely can steer the conversation from the chat. Or, if you are so inclined, shoot me a DM and maybe I bring you in as a guest host behind the bar. It's up to you.
