The whole segment, as transcribed

Wait, but you're like, let's, let's take a step back. Would you now rather hang out with Andrew McCarthy or Judd Nelson? Oh, Judd Nelson. Yeah. Stories that is different movies. I think Danny Jr. Is a, is a, is a win in that role. Apex mountain. Rob Lowe. I think it's about last night, the following year. I'll go, I'll go this. Okay. Judd Nelson. I say, yes. Coming up breakfast club. Benny's does this. You're thinking he's an A-master. Yeah. I mean, I think the, the peak went down, but yes. Andrew McCarthy. I'm going to say weekend at Bernie's. Or, or mannequin. Yeah. Demi Moore. No way. Which does raise an interesting question of what was her apex. Definitely. I mean, a few good men as Joe Galloway. Was it GI Jane? Did that movie make money? But I think it was like when she was like, she could star in an action movie. What about her making striptease and breaking the bank for what somebody bombed? Yeah. I guess it would probably, I mean, I thought that was signing the striptease, but her signing the striptease contract, probably her apex. Okay. Sets a new record for female actresses. Ali Shady. I'm going to say yes. Yeah, I guess so. Emilio Estevez. No. Probably young guns are one of those young guys. John Parr. Yes. All right. This is super car dorky. I only let this side out a couple of times in the rewatchables, but the 1982 Jeep CJ7. I'm going to say yes. Apex Mountain. What an incredible car that was. So that's the one that they go driving around Georgetown and pick everybody up. It's seven people and all that stuff. All right. This is a big one. Georgetown. Apex Mountain. Because you have this movie and you have Patrick Ewing winning the title this year. This was in my unanswerable questions. Do you think... Patrick Ewing likes this movie? No. Okay. I don't know. Do you think John Thompson has seen this movie? No way. No. Do you think they could have thrown in... Like just a reference. Just a reference. Like if you went to Georgetown in 85, you would be obsessed with Georgetown basketball. You're mentioning like Reggie Williams. David Wingate, right? Like it's in... Yeah. By the way, I should mention when we talked about Perfect Storm, I was mad there wasn't a Red Sox game. Apparently there's a sneaky moment where they say it's October when they film Perfect Storm. Got an email from a friend of mine about it. So they should have been showing Celtic games in the bar. Perfect Storm. In this case, they absolutely... Somebody... Kirby. I think Kirby was our guy for this. He should have had like the Ewing poster or something, right? Absolutely. Or the Ewing jersey? Do you think... Or do you think Andrew... Kevin was like, no, we need more room for my Woody Allen poster. Kevin was a douche. I hated people like Kevin. My finals for movie characters I wouldn't want to hang out with, it's like Kevin and Troy from Reality Bites. My one scenes. I just hated people like that. All right. Pickin' Nets. How do you lose all your possessions because of a cocaine problem? Like do cocaine dealers? Like I'm going to take that bureau? No. She's overextended on her credit cards, man. Cocaine guys... Cocaine dealers are not like, hey, we're repossessing your couch. But she had furniture and by the end of it, there's no... But she bought it all on credit and then... Because she was... Because remember Kevin's like... They repot it? Yeah. Not the cocaine dealers though. The bank did. They repot every piece of furniture she bought. Yes. Have you ever heard of this happening ever at any point? Yeah. People get their shit repopossessed when they don't pay off their bills. Every single thing. They're like, hey, that $10 poster, we're taking that. I think... First of all, I think it was more that that poster of Billy Idol looked like an art installation. And second of all, I think that once you engage in that contract, you don't really have any claim to anything. I don't agree with that. But I'm just saying, I think she was probably like $80,000 in credit card debt. If that poster... A friend of yours in LA bought that poster at an auction they just gave it to you and you brought that home for your wife. And you're like, we're putting this up in the living room. What's her reaction to the Billy Idol poster? I think she would go with me on my art.
