Blank Check with Griffin and David Podcast • Page 69

Great ep. Great movie.

 

Great bounce back episode from last week

 

No country episode was fine and idk what the issue was

 

Fran talking about applying to Illinois Wesleyan University was a nice surprise. We could have been classmates!

It's funny (to me, central IL guy) that Richard Jenkins went to IWU and John Malkovich dropped out of Illinois State just down the street.

 

Agreed!

Plus, “Argylle” talk!

 

I’ve certainly mentioned it elsewhere but that came out around the time I was dealing with a new and severe back problem and was in pain the entire runtime of that movie even in the Dolby recliners. Could barely stand up after it ended

 

maron just immediately grumpy with griffin. the king lol.

 

Stavros Halkias next week talking True Grit

 

Oh hell yeah

 

fuck yeah

 

Maron being like “I gotta go” 70 minutes in is so funny

 

Good episode. Maybe the most griffin has ever talked over everyone?

 

David's great on the DDL hall of fame on The Big Picture this week too.

 

yeah loved that pod. implies that sean and amanda are on the first 2026 series too

 

reddit is pretty sure it's Peter Weir

 

dobbins gotta be the witness guest

 

Hmmm

 

Based on David’s recent LB diary entries it absolutely is Peter Weir

 

I've only seen two Weirs (Truman Show and Dead Poet's Society) so I've got some catching up to do.

 

also seems like paranormal activity might be their next patreon series

 

I think that's just David watching the series for fun. Would be weird to do that on Patreon and not have any of the episodes air in October.

 

yeah that’s true

they haven’t always specifically timed stuff like that but you’re probably right

 

David tends to binge horror franchises around this time of year. I think he watched all of the Saw movies last year
