Summary

If you love something, set it free. If it comes back to you, it's... well... broken. We talk Grosse Pointe Blank with Chris Gethard. You can find Chris online here (https://chrisgeth.com/), and you can find his special Half My Life here (https://www.comedydynamics.com/catalog/chris-gethard-half-my-life/). We made a playlist to accompany this episode! (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3cLR1pDDq8MVuv2l34KtLF?si=9931842308fc4bef) It's comprised of songs that come to mind when we all think about this movie. You Are Good is a show in which hosts Sarah Marshall and Alex Steed attempt to understand what the hell it means to be the grown children of dads and other dad-like figures. And, as they do with all difficult subject matter, they do so by looking through a pop culture lens. You can find us on Twitter (https://twitter.com/youaregoodpod), Instagram (https://instagram.com/youaregoodpod) and Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/youaregood). You can find producer and music director Carolyn Kendrick's music here. (fanlink.to/ctuc) She's also on Twitter (https://twitter.com/carekendrick).

0:00.0	Welcome to You Are Good. We are here today talking about Gross Point Blank with Chris
0:12.3	Getherd. I'm Sarah Marshall and we are continuing our trend of movies about prom, high school
0:19.8	graduation, reunions, we're moving into summer camp pretty soon, but this is in that trend.
0:27.8	Along with an upcoming movie we have The Parent Trap. It is also about fallout from something
0:33.4	that happened in 1986. And of course we are talking about John Qsaxx character, Martin Blank,
0:40.5	graduating from high school, deciding he wants to kill somebody, and then going ahead and doing
0:46.2	that and making a career out of it, and then having to come home to his high school graduation
0:50.9	reunion. This is also a movie about coming to a point in your life when you realize you need
0:57.4	to make radical changes and embrace vulnerability in a way that is more fundamentally terrifying than
1:03.5	being shot at by Dan Acroid. And I hope that if that energy is in your life right now as I feel
1:11.4	like it's in a lot of our lives due to history, I hope that you were able to embrace that change
1:18.4	and that luck is on your side and that you can roll out of town after a dangerous few days with
1:25.0	the person you love most in the car with you listening to some great songs. You are good.
1:32.6	Happy summer you guys.

1:46.1	You know all have husbands and wives and children and houses and dogs and you know they've made
1:50.4	themselves a part of something and they can talk about what they do and what am I going to say?
1:54.8	I killed the president of Paraguay with a fork. How have you been?
1:58.9	Don't kill anybody for a few days. See what it feels like. I give it a shot.
2:02.2	No, no, don't give it a shot. Don't shoot anything.
2:05.0	How come you never learned that it was wrong? That there are certain things you do not do.
2:09.5	You do not do in a civilized society. What civilizations are we talking about?
