Wonderfully Illinformed
Join your hosts Ben, Mark and Tom for a podcast where 3 childhood friends reconnect under the watchful eye of their AI Producer.
Each week, the guys meet up and throw a selection of weird and wonderful stories from various (possibly questionable) sources into their AI Producer's lap. She then provides the headlines at random for them to discuss, and probably diverge from almost immediately.
Wonderfully Illinformed
#24P2 My Employers are Stingy
Summary
In this episode of Wonderfully IllInformed, we don't discuss any randomised and humorous topics. Instead, we have a whole episode of games dreamt up for Episode 24 by Mark.
Mark asks Ben and Tom to predict each other's next move in a hypothetical situation.
He then tasks them with finding and picking an un-re-made Disney Movie that they think would be the prime remake...which spirals out of control.
In our third game, Mark asks Ben and Tom to pick a computer game to be trapped inside as an NPC and what their side-quest would be.
Lastly, in a return to our debating roots (see: The Great Baguette Debate) Ben and Tom battle it out to persuade Mark that their favourite Robin Williams movie is the best.
It's okay, we promise that there is a normal episode on it's way next week!

Episode 24, Part 2. My employers are stingy.
Did you scream? I didn't scream. I was just like, I think.
They're so wonderfully ill informed.
Oh, ****. Yeah. Who's doing the game?
Really, really interesting is.
Yeah, surprise drunk. I might turn up to next episode. Surprise drunk. Just open just bowstring.
I'll have a thimble of beer and I'll be absolutely crasted, trollied. Yeah.
Let me just I need to think what I would do. Don't say it.
Yeah, yeah. Tom needs to think about what you do. Yeah, don't put any.
Would do, yeah, because this happened to me a lot playing Fallout 3, so I do. I do have, I do know.
That was also my prediction, I'll.
Probably spend too long now, like convincing myself that I can do it when it.
And then after after kind of, probably an hour of wasting my time.
Go and just not play the game.
Game. So it depends on how far you've got in the game.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Depending what if he was like, right?
So I would never restart a game. I'm not.
In any way interested in doing?
Try for a bit. If not, I just load an older save.
So that's what I do in that instance, but I have had it where.
Yeah, yeah, that would be my prediction.
So it sounds closer to Toms prediction I.
Yeah, I would. I would, I probably would.
In on, yeah, I just went through and 100% it well, kind of 100%.
Tony Hawks pro skater one and two remake unlocked all the videos spent like.
You do it, or so. Hang on. Are we doing this ourselves this time?
Is that yeah, the the format of the game seems like it's.
Is there any Disney movies that are remade already?
Yeah. So you've got like, oh, that's a good question.
Are we talking classic 2D Disney?
Yeah, yeah, the classic Disney. So you've got.
Snow White has been done, hasn't it?
No, not like a good, not like a Disney remake.
Oh, is it? Oh, ****. Yeah, my bad. I was thinking that Sleeping Beauty was on the table.
There are. There are some, so I'm surprised that this first one, Pocahontas.
Oh, OK. OK. So that's that's on the table. So Pokémon test you can pick from Pokémon test.
I'm guessing they haven't done a live action one.
Of that, I'm not aware of that one. No, that's not been.
Here's a here's a classic Bambi.
Has Bambi mean? I think Bambi's being remade.
It hasn't. Yeah. Would you like to pick that one?
Frozen, tangled sword in the stone. That would be a joy remake.
Oh, so I think I think from you guys reactions, I would assume that yours is still in the.
And ban your Emperor's new groove.
I don't actually know if I've seen Emperor's new Groove. I've played the.
Oh, OK, so that's why I'm kind of aware of.
OK, see, I'm not a massive Disney fan like I.
XR technically you could call Studio Ghibli, Disney as well because.
LinkedIn some way, at least they.
Were that's they count because they haven't been remade, but.
Well, I don't know what my answer would be, to be honest, because.
What about the brave little toaster? Is that Disney? I remember really liking that.
Or the land before time is that.
Just thinking about cartoons now.
I love that. I love that. If that was joy.
Do I? Yeah. Yeah, it was excellent.
No, it's not a Disney film, so it doesn't count. Sorry.
Yeah, yeah, they they they do it a lot. There's.
Yeah. Yeah. Because they're just retracing rather than having to come up with the whole clock.
Oh yeah, Jungle Book. And Winnie the Pooh. Yeah, I've seen that one.
Wow, that's that's the the theme of this podcast, isn't it?
It I'm trying to think of what video game world would I like to live in first.
Just be some rad dude with escape.
I've got an Osiris sponsorship.
Look at my massive Osiris D3 stupid shoes that I thought were cool when I was 14.
I don't say you do still have GPU Ben, so being a cool dude might be an.
Yeah. That. No, thank you. Not today.
They oh ****. It might have been down on.
That would. Yeah, I think that would be because Dan had green hair at one point, didn't.
I've never had green hair. What was your time? I've dyed my hair. I sprayed it black to be Rios.
I think it blew you. I've seen you in a.
Yeah, it was blue. Was it? I've never dyed my hair. I had a Mohawk.
No, no, you didn't diet. You sprayed it blue. You definitely had.
Stories about Ben's life from other.
What was your quest? Be? In what game, Tom?
Would it be a hairdressing simulator and I'm coming in to get my Mohawk?
James loves it, mate. I'm like, why is
To start a side business of going and washing people's.
Money. There's one thing in it where you can power wash the entire Croft Manor from Tomb Raider.
Maybe I'd be a. Yeah. I've never played that game, but maybe I'd just be a.
I'd be an MPC in in James's game and just make everything that he cleans dirty.
Yeah, just keep on pointing at stuff.
I can just imagine like that. It's just a never ending level when it gets to you, Tom.
You're just like and now watch.
This you missed a bit. You missed a bit. You missed a bit.
Yeah, I'm sorry. There's a little bit down there and it just keeps on zooming and zooming.
Try harder next time. And yes, there's no safe points and.
Have you both seen Con Air and Face Off?
Yeah, I can't remember Conair Ben probably hasn't seen.
Either. No, no, I haven't seen either. They've got Nicholas cage. No one of them got Nicholas Cage.
Is it John Wick 1-2 and three?
I wish. No. It's the John Wick series, The Matrix series, or the bill and Ted series.
Can either of you take sides on any of those?
They play chess with death in one of them. That's the second. OK, well.
I couldn't. I couldn't fight any.
What movies? Is there any movies? Oh, sorry. Any actors that's been in a series.
Of movies or multiple series of different movies that we could do the question with that.
One of the problems we have here with.
Would probably be quite boring.
We could go through. We don't have to.
Stop at movies, Ben. Yeah. Any classic thing? Well.
Seen it? Has Ben seen? It has been heard it. Yeah. Exciting stuff stand.
Don't think that I have. Yeah.
Yeah. Sorry. OK. So, yeah, any. Well, I say classic movie. Any movie that's.
Highly renowned, that is well known.
How many Daniel Radcliffe movies have you seen? You seen?
Harry Potter. I've seen all of the Harry.
Right. OK. Well, what other movies is Danny working?
He's not. He's not been the men in black.
Would love to see Daniel Radcliffe in men in.
I can give you an actor that we might be able to use for this, Robin Williams.
Go for it, boys. OK you guys select.
I would go for Jumanji on that sick.
Bar. I mean, he's been in lies, isn't he? He's doubt fire.
Tomorrow. What the? So what am I looking for again? What? What am I? What am I doing?
So we basically have to say how **** that film is and how our one is better.
Yeah, yeah. Pick one and. And. Yeah. And I want you to.
OK, that relies on me having seen the other ones of the films.
Things is that, I mean, you can still just big up your one, I'm just going to decide which argument.
Oh yeah, I don't feel about that one. I'll see you done.
Hook excellent film bicentennial man.
Love hook. So then what did you decide?
On I'm going to go with Jumanji because I feel like that's the only one I remember well.
Right. Should we start with who wants to go first, Ben or Tom?
Pan. Yeah. Oh, ****. Is he alright?
No, that's Dustin. No, that's not Dustin Hoffman. It's that's.
This is what I say. This is what this is what I.
In the battle, I'm going to get it wrong. You look bag of pre tube food do.
And I respond to you by saying.
Ruthie says no. Oh, my bad, it's.
When they're having this, when they're having a battle.
Bob Hoskins. Just me. Yeah. Yeah. And he was also Mario.
And also he was the phone advert.
You look crude, rude bag of pre-chewed food.
I genuinely don't think I've seen.
Right, having watched that, I have not seen this film.
My next attack on this film would be that that, that.
And I'm assuming it's probably the point of the.
So he went back to real with the real world.
Also, he aged because he went home, yeah.
You went to the real world, had a family.
Well, I I I know nothing else about this film, so it's I think your turn to attack Jumanji Tom.
I mean Jumanji is good. I feel I'm trying.
It's not necessarily the point, but what about the little the little kid is the.
Well, that's in 91. I feel like Jumanji is is lighter than that.
Yeah, I feel like Jumanji might be 95.
Well, I've not seen the film, no.
But Jumanji. Jumanji was good, but I just.
Right close Stampede, play the Stampede thing.
But that doesn't look terrible.
It's not too bad to be fair, it's.
Washed out in like old CG graphics like it doesn't look real.
No, but when you watch that on like like a new TV, like a four KTV.
Hey, you're expecting? I've got a four KTV. I'm still using a a 32 inch Sony Bravia TV from like.
But today isn't, I don't think.
Fair that is pretty good considering 95.
No, not only 5, but it was definitely a landmark moment for for graphics, for sure.
It's just such a good story. Like I appreciate. It's probably.
No, no, it's not about what's.
No, no. But I I agree that it's a good story, but it's hard for you to have.
A level playing field and judging them because you haven't seen both of them. At least they've seen.
I mean, you could have picked any Robin Williams movie.
The one that I remember most fondly.
That's fine. Yeah, that's that's fine. That's that's OK. That's exactly what was on.
Like I even quite like the the remakes with Jack Black and the.
Yeah, I've, I've. I think I might have seen both of them, yeah.
It's like the the Jumanji kind of universe. Although I never watched Zephora.
They're like the space one. That was kind.
Kind of in the same world or something, I don't know.
I have you ever heard of that?
Oh, I didn't know it was in the same world. It's kind of similar.
It's it's to do with Jumanji. I know that.
I feel like I feel like I might have seen it. I just can't remember I'm.
Not sure. So whilst I do appreciate both of you, you guys answers.
And for being impartial, there were a good judge.
Yeah. Yeah. Banging film, though. Yeah, it was. It was good. But they're both great but well.
The real winner here is Robin Williams, yeah.
This is the bit where Ben reads out the comment.
So it's been quite a while since we did a last recording because of Christmas.
So we've had a couple of comments.
In our younger years in the emo cryof artwork, there's.
Move on. No, I know it's not out.
Right. And we did get one other comment.
Go Dow wants me to put up some shelves, love the podcast guys.
Do you want me to **** is he's his style.
I think it's better like that. We. Yeah, that we don't know.
I thought you were going to say I think.
Whoever it is doesn't really matter. Thanks for listening.
Yeah. Yeah. Well, there you go. Those are the comments that we got over the holiday period just two.
Just two, don't forget to subscribe rate or leave a review on whatever podcast.
Don't forget to subscribe rate or **** your bum.
Don't forget to **** your bum.
Whatever you do, never forget to **** your.
Really. Suck it. You really embarrass yourself on the podcast.
We will maybe see you next week if Tom has learned how to speak.
Again, yeah, I think I know how to speak. I've just forgotten.
Even my words don't want to do it. I'm literally looking at it, trying to read it my.
Mouse is that welcome to my world, yeah.
Post, post, post Christmas world guys.
Goodbye. See you next week, everyone.
