| 0:28.4 | The cinema family right here on Fairfax Avenue in the gracious tennis shoe record district of Los Angeles where Drake will be dropping a jam and you'll be hyping a burger and then later on going over to canters and getting one of their antique sandwiches from their festive collection of historic sandwiches that they serve over at canters and then possibly having a drink in the kid that's room and letting your life fill out to its full measure here then going over to the news stand on the corner. Oh, it's on here at Fairfax Avenue ladies and gentlemen. |

| 1:07.4 | We're going to be showing Joseph Sargent's 1974 thriller and overlooked gem of the 70s genre of thriller. The taking of Pellum 1-2-3 and it's going to be a fine maybe you may want to dig it up right now if you're out there listening in Proop Castland. |
| 1:22.4 | This is an awesome time to get some drinks together and perhaps role one and find an illegal version of this somewhere on the internet for your perusal. |
| 1:31.4 | I'm almost certain there is one. Is it on Netflix? I know the new ones on Netflix and let's just talk about the new one and get that over with. |
