Pete and Greg’s favorite movie quotes (Hour 1)

From Washington to Hollywood and right back to Wisconsin.

It's Night Light with Pete Schwabba and Greg Bach.

Connecting the dots on the stories shaping our world with smart takes, sharp humor, and plenty of personality.

You know, I really expected more professional behavior from you.

It's news and culture without the noise.

Yeah, come on!

Here's Pete Schwabba and Greg Bach.

Dude!

Oh, there's going to be noise.

But it will all be fun.

Welcome to Nightlight, ladies and gentlemen.

I am Pete Schwabba along with Greg Bach and our producer, Dom Lee.

Welcome to a Wednesday edition of Nightlight.

Have we got a show for you?

Is that an accurate statement, Greg?

I think we've established this is going to be one of our better shows.

Certainly

this

week.

I declare this is one of our better shows.

No argument there.

We have got a great show tonight, folks.

Dom, how you doing?

I'm doing good.

It's a bright and shiny day in Madison.

It hasn't been that way since last Friday, so I'm very happy.

Yeah, that must be

tough.

What dumb?

What is the sweater?

I you say it's a gorgeous day.

You look like you're wearing like a big sweater I don't

I got your Rob Dan levy again.

I really like thrifting so here I'm standing up for those who will tune into the live stream Nightlight with Pete Schwab and Greg Bach.

This is what I got nice.

There we go Yes,

I like thrifting too, but you don't have to buy goofy stuff

It's a wonderful sweater well

I think Dom should just keep that response in his brain box there for the next time.

Pete talks about something goofy that he likes.

Oh,

I can't wait.

I live to be heckled.

I have not been a stand-up

kind looking

so long.

Please bring it.

And listen, Dom, you look good.

The hair looks good.

The sweater looks good.

You look like a million bucks, Greg.

You're looking great.

You got the... I'm telling you, there are times you look like Butch Vig.

It's crazy.

Okay.

Okay.

But you like that, right?

That's

great.

No, I love that.

I love that.

I mean, it's one of the professions I wish I would have.

I actually, here's a fun fact.

I applied to the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh because I wanted to be a producer.

Like I wanted to learn how to, or I guess an engineer.

Like I wanted to learn how to run a recording studio because as a young kid, I used to design recording studios with Microsoft Paint.

And I

applied

to Wisconsin at Oshkosh because they had a program that would help you that had that training and well I didn't get in so that didn't nap in.

It's

very good too.

I went to Oshkosh and it's very fair.

It's a very good program.

I'm

sitting

there in his sweater rubbing

salt in the wound.

That's not fair.

What am I doing?

You made

fun of a sweater.

No, I'm defending you, Greg.

You said I didn't get in.

Dom said, well, I got in and I'll tell you one thing.

Oh, thank you, Pete.

I

knew

I

could count on you, buddy.

I'm here to help.

Listen, I like to be heckled, but I also like to fight for the underdog.

You're also a standard comedian, which means you require and crave validation.

Don't tell anybody.

We have an outstanding show tonight.

Ladies and gentlemen are coming up in, uh, is Dennis here?

Our number two or now our number one.

I got confused there.

He's an hour number two.

He's coming up at, he's coming up at six, at six 20 in the second hour, six

20.

That is.

Yeah, go ahead, Greg.

I was going to get really quick here, Brett from Brown Deer, listening to WAUK Text.

And I'm still waiting for the day you say, tonight's show isn't going to be that good.

We are going to just mail it in.

Love the show.

He loves the show.

We have been slacking off the last few weeks, but tonight.

Tonight's

the one.

This

is the one that puts us on the map.

Thank you, Brett.

That was sort of

a heckle, by the way, too.

I mean, good job.

I'm not

gonna

say anything.

I love it.

We do have a great show tonight though.

Dennis Graham, he is the creator of Rock Conson.

We'll be here.

Rock, Conson.

Rock and Wisconsin.

He's got this outstanding contest for teens, a garage band contest for teens, folks.

It's so fun and the winners get to play at Summer Fest and Dennis created this great nonprofit.

So we're gonna have Dennis here.

He's been here before.

compliments of our friend Terry Barr, but now he is he's gonna roll in again and tell us all about this year's contest and we're gonna talk a little music Which will be right up Greg's alley.

I know and it's gonna be a lot of fun And you know what Greg and I are gonna take or we're gonna talk about movie lines later in this hour after the news Yeah, share some of our favorite movie lines.

That'll be fun.

But speaking of rock bands and rock concert I think that is the perfect segue into our question of the night

Let's talk

about the

question question question

question question question question this question question questions

Who is the greatest lead singer?

There's a good rock-concing question for you folks.

We got a

theme going here tonight Who is the greatest lead singer 8 5 5 7 5 2 4 8 4 2 8 5 5 7 5 civic

You can also text us your response on the Civic Media app, or if you're watching the radio on YouTube, Facebook, or ex Twitter, drop us a stream comment and share who you think is the greatest lead singer.

There you go.

I think you

must have had trouble answering that one.

I still haven't answered it.

I'm still not sure I haven't either.

Because, I mean, what are your qualifications?

What's the criteria?

And do you go subjective and say, well, I don't care about any of that stuff.

I like so-and-so.

Do you go objective and say, by all of the measurements here, this qualifies as the greatest lead singer.

But, you know, we'll see.

We'll hear from people.

We'll, I'm sure we'll have, you know, very measured and professional opinions.

I know I got a lot of response on my, on my, when I shared the question on my Facebook page tonight.

So we'll have some good ones I can see.

I can see a lot of the same too.

There's a couple of winners here.

I can tell like people really agreeing with each other.

So.

Yeah, I it's it's there's a lot of criteria you could use to make your to come to your conclusion actual best voice best charisma You know what else they bring?

Instrumentally all kinds of stuff, but there's no right or wrong answer folks.

Just be part of the show It's always more fun when you guys participate and we look forward to reading those texts in Well throughout the show, but primarily in hour number two.

There you

go.

I'm

sure you have

a good day Greg.

How was your wife's birthday?

I mean, yesterday was great.

She had, she had fun.

Didn't do a whole lot.

She hung out with her mom.

And you know, when I got home, she was, she was done for the day.

She, she's one of those individuals like it's not a big deal.

And I disagree with that.

Now I'll say this.

I definitely don't get down on the notion of like, it's my birthday month.

Calm down.

You're not 11, but

I do believe that it's your day and you should celebrate however you want.

And whether that's going out and doing something, whether it's staying home and doing nothing, that's fine.

But there's this attitude of like, who cares?

It's not a big deal.

It is a big deal.

You made it another year.

That to me is worth celebrating in whatever version.

If it's a high five, cool deal.

If it's a big dinner, great.

But that thing of, eh, doesn't matter.

Yes, it does.

It absolutely does.

I believe that.

So we, like I said, yesterday was not that big of a deal because it was Tuesday and we did some stuff last weekend and we got some more things coming up this Saturday, which is a big surprise.

She's, I keep on bringing it up every single day.

She's like, she doesn't dislike surprises.

She just wants to know.

So she just got to wait.

She's gonna have to wait.

It sounds like you are

making a pretty big deal about it.

Oh, I am because also if you know my wife,

you know that she celebrates everybody.

All people all the time.

She wants the best for you.

She will go to bat for you.

She loves when you are having a great day.

She is always rooting for folks.

And so I just want to give her some of that love too.

And so that's what I think, you know.

Very sweet.

That's great.

And all things we're going to do are things she wants to do.

It's not like, Hey, we're going to go do a thing that I really want to do.

Come on with me.

So

that's awesome.

Folks, Tomorrow Night is our second installment of the Nightlight Movie Club.

And

we

would love it if you guys would be part of it.

We have the film.

This is one of Greg's recommendations.

I'm only 20 minutes into it.

I already love it because

it has that

guy-richie pacing and feel in music.

It's called The Gentleman.

And it's make sure if you do want to watch the film and participate tomorrow in the second hour in our discussion and text or call or whatever, you can do any of those.

but make sure you get the right movie.

It's Guy Ritchie's The Gentleman, not The Gentle Men with Ron Perlman, which I almost clicked, which actually kind of looked cool, but

I knew it wasn't

the Guy Ritchie one, but be part of Tomorrow Night's Nightlight Movie Club.

We had a lot of fun last week with Sandlot, and we will have a great discussion tomorrow night as well.

I will say this, I rent it, my son was home yesterday, and we rented Midnight Run as one of our favorite films

ever.

And we got into this huge talk about politics.

So by the time we started Midnight Run, it was like quarter to one and

we had to pay for it.

And I go, come on Joe, we're not gonna pay for a movie and start it now when we're not gonna finish it.

He goes, dad, I'll split it with you.

He then mowed me $2.

Just to be a goof.

And then we got through like literally seven minutes of the movie and he was out.

And I of course watched the whole thing.

So.

Oh my gosh, you are a stronger man than I. I couldn't do that.

I think I was in bed by...

8.45 last night.

Oh, wow.

Yeah, I go to bed early now because of the old days of getting up super early for the shows and whatnot.

And I just, I don't want to go, like there are nights, there are some nights where I'll lay in bed looking at my phone and it'll be a little bit late.

And then I don't like it the next day.

I don't want to waste.

I don't want to sleep in.

I got stuff to do.

So, you know, but that's for, I'm

the same.

I try to go to bed early once in a while.

I have it in me and I feel like I'm in college.

So I just go for it.

But

yeah, okay.

Hey, we've got some we've got some stuff to discuss here in the way of stories.

Don,

kick us off.

The first big story.

Yesterday saw a spring election here in Wisconsin and Chris Taylor was elected as the Wisconsin State Supreme Court.

The next justice she'll be taking office in August and she won.

handily, resoundly, and without fear.

She beat her opponent, Maria Lazar, by 21 points, nearly 21 points.

And this was even a more decisive victory than the 2024 or 2025 and 2023 Wisconsin State Supreme Court races, which by the way,

I felt like those two races, it felt like the world's end.

Like we were talking about like, we gotta do this.

It's gotta happen.

You gotta vote.

And I think that's true.

And I'm glad we did it.

And I'm glad that both those candidates won.

But with Chris Taylor, I felt like there wasn't as much oomph as it was the last two, but yet she just absolutely walloped Maria Lazar in the final tally.

60% versus 39%.

And that was just, I mean, craziness.

Yeah, that's a drubbing.

I mean, I don't even like it's weird because you're right.

You didn't hear a lot about this and you pointed out before the show that Susan Crawford received 1.3 million votes in one by 10 percent and Chris Taylor won by 21 points receiving just under a million votes.

So I don't know what happened.

Did the Republicans just concede this or they knew they

didn't have a shot or what?

I think the Republicans gave up because if you saw the social media that was going out, they weren't really pushing the candidate.

They were pushing the day.

Don't forget to vote.

Get out and vote, which I totally agree with.

Always tell your base to go vote.

Always tell anyone.

I don't care.

It doesn't matter.

Well, I'm going to rephrase that.

I don't care who you vote for, but you should go vote.

And so that's what they were doing.

But they weren't putting their they weren't putting their horses behind Maria's Lazar.

They were not really into this.

I don't think I don't think a lot of people were, honestly, it just felt like the last two were

far more consequential.

And as you said, like, there was far more votes cast in the last two.

And both can't both winners won by 11%.

But this time, I feel like folks just said, all right, we, you know, it may have been a thing of, well, we already have four on the court.

That's great.

So I can stay home, I guess.

Sure.

But congratulations to Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Elect.

Christian

on your yeah, exactly.

And you also pointed out too that there's a new wassame or Alicia Helvin sleepin sly been walkie-sha I'm sorry.

Well, that was

walkie-sha.

That was walkie-sha a cheese Yeah, it was that was a big if you don't walkie-sha that is a conservative area conservative a very conservative county the fact that she was the she was a council member and a liberal Democrat winning this the seat pull baby

Yeah, that's something.

All right.

We have more to discuss.

We are going to come back after an extremely short break and talk about two more big stories than our do our movie line discussion.

It's going to be a lot of fun.

Glad you're here.

This is Nightlight with Pete Schwabba and Greg Bach on the Civic Media Network.

Welcome back.

This is Nightlight with Pete Schwabba and Greg Bach.

Dom Lee working the board in Madison.

Great to have you with us tonight.

Tonight's question is, who is the greatest lead singer?

Let us know your answers, folks.

You can text us on the text line, the app or the stream.

Be part of the show.

Dom, we have a phone call in response to our question of the night.

Let's get to that.

Good evening Greg from Waukesha my friend dear friend.

How are you this evening?

Good

evening

my name twin.

How are you?

And how are you?

He

didn't say friend Wow,

but he has two G's you have one great I know Greg Bacchino we've been friends forever

for ever, ever,

many decades now, buddy.

Since

back, back in the, uh, sweetheart trip wire days and even before that.

Yes.

Oh my goodness.

Yeah.

Lots of stories.

All right.

Greg,

who do

you think, who do you think the best lead singer of all time is?

Oh, you know, I have to say this and it's not just because I want to talk about, you know,

Something real quick, but even in Abrahamson of the last fees Formerly of many other bands is probably the best.

I love seeing live local music and he's probably the best lead singer that I've heard and I actually know He just knows how to pump up an audience

He has a lot, tells a lot of jokes about Les Paul.

In fact, Pete and Greg, if I may say real quick, there is a, you guys should get the coordinators of the Les Paul Music Festival that's happening in Frame Park in Waukesha on June 13th.

Ian is one of the

people in charge of that involved with that so It's going to be an all-day long music festival seven bands They're all local and So I'd go with him or John Cooper from the band skillet.

I I don't like yeah, I don't really get into their politics, but I do like John as a Singer so

yeah, nice

Greg,

we

appreciate the idea.

That's great.

And thank you for answering the question.

Yeah, thank you so much for the call.

And thanks for the guest suggestions, too.

I mean, Les Paul, my grandfather went to went to school with him for

a

moment.

Yeah.

Oh, that's cool.

I'm glad that Waukesha is finally embracing that history after.

I mean, it's been a long, long time.

How many decades?

But again, thank you so much, Greg for getting in touch.

We appreciate you reaching out and listening to the show as always.

You can be part of the conversation 8557 5248 4285 575 civic.

Leave a comment on that live stream to we're currently streaming on Facebook, YouTube and the platform.

We still call Twitter who is the greatest lead singer that is our question of the night.

And while you're mulling that over, let's get back to our big three stories.

The second big

story.

Seems like Pete taco Tuesday just isn't for Dominic

No, Trump had a big reversal tough talk I'm gonna end the civilization in Iraq because he said a couple of days ago I think on Easter Monday, and then he did a little bit of a flip-flop a waffle if you will a taco

a Flip-flop is great way to say there flip-flop.

Yeah, he taco Trump always always always

Todd

Trump

always

Trump always

caves Caves that

okay,

I'm gonna look it up

Anyway, he said now there's a two week.

He's giving Iran two weeks.

He says they're negotiating He's kind of making it sound like he's he's just pulled this master negotiation and the Strait of Hormuz will be reopened again

Yeah, Trump always chickens up.

That's it.

But he made it sound like this is a huge victory diplomacy.

And it's like, you're the reason it was closed.

Well,

speaking of victory, Pete.

Our defense secretary, that's the only title I will give him.

I will never call him the other one, has claimed today that there was an overwhelming victory over Iran hours after the president announced a 14-day ceasefire this coming by way of the hill.

Operation Epic Fury was a historic and overwhelming victory on the battlefield.

A capital V military victory by any measure.

This man is weekend host dumb.

That is what this human is.

Seriously.

When he talks, like I have never seen a better impression than Colin Joest.

And he doesn't look like him.

He doesn't talk like him.

He just embodies that frat boy keg stand energy.

Yeah, it's so true.

And it's kind of like what they're claiming like this victory.

It's like if you went out and dumped garbage out and then swept it up and patted yourself on the back.

It's like, what?

And today, the Israelis attacked Lebanon and killed, supposedly, 254 people.

So does Trump, does anybody listen to him?

Well, no one listens to anybody, honestly.

What are we doing?

I

hear you, Greg.

What are we?

I hear you loud and clear.

What are we ding?

All

right.

Let's get to our third story.

Yeah.

The third big story.

Greg, this is just a sign of the times.

This is so depressing.

Stephen Colbert, say what you want about him politically.

You don't agree with his politics.

I get it, but the guy is funny.

And the show was good.

The show was good, and they didn't like what he was saying, so thanks to the Paramount merger.

He lost his job.

Byron Allen will be taking over for Stephen Colbert.

Really quickly, my thoughts on Byron Allen.

Great businessman, very mediocre comic at best.

He's purchasing the time, and that means Nielsen ratings won't come into play.

It's going to give advertisers fits.

This is a mess.

Oh, yeah.

He also buys TV stations and fires people.

He did that in Wisconsin.

He is a media mogul.

He's not just a comic.

He owns a bit.

I would say comedy is like his side hustle to his side hustle.

and his show comics unleashed, whatever, I guess.

But this doesn't surprise me.

This is like, this is like the year, this is like the year after Stephen Colbert did the correspondence.

They got rich little because they're like, get someone safe and easy and funny.

There you

go.

Well said.

All right.

This is nightlight with Pete Schwabba and Greg Bach.

Let us know your favorite lead singer.

When we come back, we're talking movie lines.

Ladies and gentlemen, do not go anywhere.

It's nightlight with Pete and Greg on the Civic Media Network.

Great tune.

Well done, Dom.

What a tune to come out of the news with.

I don't think we give Dom enough credit, Greg.

I'm tired of whatever you say.

I think Dom's a great guy.

I'm not

giving

him

any credit.

He gets 22 years old.

You hate it.

You hate it on

my sweater, you know?

Well, I did

it for the laugh, Dom.

Just for the laugh.

I'm envious of

those threads.

I guess I did make fun of your sweater.

That's fine.

You didn't even remember.

Welcome back to Nightlight.

I am Pete Schwab is sitting across the state.

Downstate for me is the immensely talented Greg Bach and Dom Lee working the board in Madison, Lake Michigan adjacent.

We complete the Yadar Hei Triangle,

which is very

important.

You can't really even do a show without the Yadar Hei Triangle.

But

our

question tonight is who is the greatest lead singer?

So we'll answer that question ourselves after the news at the top of the hour, but Be part of the show folks.

Let us know who your favorite lead singer is and It'll be fun to read those texts right now though.

This is fun Greg.

We saw this on wise brother media.

Yeah And it's great.

It's it talks about movie Apparently, there are a lot of movie quotes that are misquoted.

Yes, and

wise brother shared some of those

God, they have one from Saw.

Have you ever seen Saw?

No.

No.

No.

It's so, first of all, I'm not a gore guy.

We were at my high school friends for Thanksgiving because they lived in Southern California too.

We drove down there and his wife was like, oh my God, you guys haven't seen Saw?

You gotta see Saw.

And we're like, oh, what are we missing?

Some culturally iconic, this is the worst movie I've ever, it's so disgusting.

Oh, but have you seen saws two through 10 and the other movies they've made the spiral and other like it's so many it and Honestly saw one like I want to watch saw one because it's an amazing morality tale and the movie itself is pretty cool in its story, but They did what they do with all horror movies when they make the second one.

They're like, let's make it scarier bloodier and crazier and

I just I want I want to like horror movies Pete, but I just can't I'm a free cat

I Don't even mind scary.

I just don't like the gore in this movie was so awful when they put the guy's head in a box That was gonna break his jaw.

I think that I don't think you watch the first one then I'm pretty sure that well, whatever I watch Greg listen

I find it hard to believe that by sequel number five, it wasn't a whimsical comedy, so they're all awful.

In my opinion, I don't need to see the rest.

Whatever I saw was enough.

Whatever

I saw was enough.

I just think it's weird too that your friend's like, have you ever seen Saw?

Like, that's a weird movie.

It's still a weird movie to like, you know, you haven't seen Casablanca or you haven't seen The Godfather or, but you guys haven't seen, let's watch it now and

enjoy your ride home.

You know in the kids were still up playing in the next room and I would have been like otherwise I would have been like well I'm gonna turn in after about five minutes of this movie Dom have

you

seen

it?

I have I've only seen the first one and I was meaning to tell you guys that the the jaw method that you were talking about was the first one because that's the only

one Yes,

that's the only one

okay.

I thought that was one of like the newer games because I know in like the second one they did what they did it where like it was a oh they like

Dropped her into a vat of needles like it's just I don't understand these I don't but again, they're not they're not my jam.

I'm not huge in a horror movies I know some people who are like oh it's saw one that's tame That's that's child like a PG-13 That's

PG-13 scary So all right, we were talking about these movie quotes that are often misquoted and I'm probably guilty of this too.

I you just

time goes

by and you forget

Here's one, Greg, that you might not have, or maybe you do know this, you're a big baseball fan.

It's from Field of Dreams.

The

wrong

quote is, if you build it, they will come.

Do you know what the right quote is?

If you build it, he will come.

He will come.

Do you

know

that?

Because it's about his dad.

Right.

Yeah.

I mean, the same thing goes with, and it's been like this for the longest time as well, with Star Wars.

It's not, Luke, I am your father.

It's, no, I am your father.

I would not have gotten that one right too.

Probably because I've just heard it mispronounced for years that it sticks with me, you

know.

Yeah.

I don't even know if he, gosh, if I'm thinking about it right now, I don't even know if Darth Vader says Luke's name at all.

Maybe in the, I think in the third one, I don't know if he says it in the second one, but yeah, it's, it's no, I am your father.

That's my best James Earl Jones impression.

And I feel like I can

hear James Earl Jones saying it now.

But that's probably manufactured just because I feel like I've heard people say it, and that's probably how it was said, but yeah, it's crazy.

Here's another one, Forrest Gump.

The wrong quote is, life is like a box of chocolates.

I'm not gonna read it like Forrest Gump.

Life is like a box of chocolates.

You never know what you're gonna get.

Do you know what the right quote is?

Well...

It's

not wrong.

They're just not saying the whole thing.

He just, it's mama.

He's like, it's, this one's a little, this one is a little like, oh, you're getting real

technical here.

It's not

incorrect.

You're just not saying the whole line.

Whereas like a lot of people will mess up the lines themselves.

It's, you know, the Jaws line where it's not, you, we're going to need a bigger boat.

It's you're going to need a bigger boat.

It's just the wrong line.

So, yeah.

This was just mama says.

And you do know what you're going to get.

You're going to get chocolate.

You're going to get chocolate.

You're going to get chocolate.

And if you get coconut, you just throw the whole thing in the trash because you've wasted your time because coconut, coconut is, I don't even know if it's a, it's just a creation of Satan.

Is that, is that, is that, is that dramatic?

A little.

Okay.

Well,

I think, you

know, a

lot, frankly, that's very dramatic.

Senior producer Tucker in our chat, he said, not a movie, but death leopard song, wrong lyric.

pour some ramen on me, write lyric, pour some sugar on me.

Okay, Tucker, I don't know what songs you're listening to, but I love that you... pour some ramen on me.

I feel like I missed a weird L song that Tucker knows about.

That's

kind of... Also,

that would be...

That'll be hot.

Maybe you hurt yourself.

Burn yourself.

Or some ramen on me.

Oh my gosh, ramen's so good.

We are talking movie lines here in this segment of Nightlight with Pete Schwabba and Greg Bach.

Commonly mispronounced movie lines, but we also have lines of our own.

I feel like it would be fun to share.

Folks, you're welcome to share some of your own movie lines.

As you know, whatever we're talking about here on Nightlight, you're always welcome to join the conversation.

But yeah, I'll go first.

And this is a very obvious one.

Everybody's heard this and I'm not misquoting it.

It's not the whole line, but it's seven years of college down the drain That's a famous quote from animal house Belushi.

It's beautiful.

It's funny because one of my favorite quotes is it's it's not just a quote, but it's a back-and-forth from Tommy boy where he says

I graduated from college and just under a shade of a decade.

A lot of people go to college for seven years.

I know they're called doctors.

Right, yeah.

And just a shade under a decade, way to go.

And

my favorite, another one I love from Animal House is when the Dean just looks at Flounder and says, son, fat, drunken, stupid, there's no way to go through life.

Oh, man.

Dom, do you have any favorite movie quotes that you enjoy?

I do, yeah.

I like Nacho Libre.

And one of them was, beneath the clothes, we find a man.

And beneath the man, we find his nucleus.

That is my favorite quote of all

time.

I feel like you need to burn that onto a nice piece of red cherry wood.

in beautiful, beautiful calligraphy.

I have a natural

libre shirt.

I love natural.

I love that movie.

Of

course.

One of my favorites, cause it's my favorite comedy of all time period.

It's Dr. Strangelove where he just says, gentlemen, you can't fight in here.

This is the war room.

Oh my gosh.

It is just that movie is so, so, so good.

I wish, you know, I wish more people talked about it.

It's like one of the best comedies ever.

It's the best comedy.

about war it's better it's better than mash it's better than i love mash but the movie i'm talking about but to me dr strangelove is the best comedy movie about war ever

period not to be confused with a comedy of errors which is happening right now in the world regarding war look

what you did there

here's another one we were talking about um uh i was talking about midnight run before and this is my favorite from denis farina my former little league coach i will say

What?

Yeah.

Yeah, he plays Jimmy Serrano in...

Dennis Farina?

Yeah.

He and

my

dad, Mike Farina was a friend of mine.

We went to Our Lady of Victory School in Chicago, Catholic School.

And

his dad,

Dennis, was a Chicago cop at the time and was the third base coach.

My dad was the coach.

And I've actually had Dennis Joey Farina on who's an actor.

And he talked about his dad.

And I ran into Dennis a couple times, years later, once in LA and once in Chicago.

And he was a great guy.

And he, he said in that classic Dennis Farina voice goes, your dad was the attorney, right?

But it was a thrill.

And now I saw him on the, on the screen and manhunter, I'm like, oh my God, that's my, that's Dennis Farina anyway.

That's so funny because he says the line that I think about, it's not, I wouldn't, I didn't even think about until you said his name.

He's in the movie, get shorty.

Yeah.

And there's a line where he walks, I think across the street, or he's just outside, he's in Miami.

He just goes, Miami, looks around and goes, you can keep it.

What is that?

Oh my gosh.

He's got

another great line from that movie that we can't repeat.

Yeah.

But one of my favorite lines, he says, and then I run to his advisor.

He's Jimmy Serrano, the mob boss.

And he

says,

Sidney, sit down, relax, have a sandwich, drink a glass of milk, do some effin thing.

Oh

my

gosh, Dom, do you have any

more?

You know, I like Jurassic Park, you know?

Welcome to Jurassic Park, you know?

I thought you were going to quote

a dinosaur.

Raptor.

I also like Toy Story 2, you know?

There's a snake in my boot, right?

That's an iconic

quote.

Snake in my

boot.

Tyler on the text line from the Wisconsin Rapids says, why so serious?

Said replicant Roy Batty gazing through googly eyes to Sebastian and employee in the Tyrell corporation in the movie blade.

Wow.

That was a long walk, dude.

That was a long walk.

Fun fact about Blade Runner.

Fun fact about Blade Runner.

My wife's favorite movie of all time.

So.

Oh, very cool.

Here's our pal Tucker, senior producer

of

Nightlight, says in piggybacking on Dom's answer, life finds a way.

Dr. Malcolm, Sam, I'm completely blanking on Sam Neil.

There's a movie called Soap Dish that came out in the 90s with, and it's fantastic, Sally Field, Whoopie Goldberg, Robert Downey Jr.

pre-post arrests, like before Iron Man, that's for sure.

Kathy Moriarty, who else is in that movie?

I mean, it's just stacked with absolute bangers of actors in

them.

Oh, Kevin Klein.

Kevin Klein,

Elizabeth

Shoe is in that movie, but Gary Marshall is in that movie.

And Gary Marshall could walk up to me and say, well, he's gone now, but he could walk to be like,

Greg Bach, you're a moron, and I would laugh so hard I would probably soil myself.

Because his voice has a timber and a delivery, but he has a line in that movie where they're talking about this failing soap opera they all work on, where he goes, he goes, he goes, the show is expensive and depressing.

Two words I hate, two words I love, peppy and cheap.

I think about that line more than I think about some of my family members sometimes.

Seriously.

I just absolutely love that.

Two lords.

I love

peppy and cheap.

He in, in, uh, lost in America, you've seen the Albert Brooks film

when he's

the casino owner and he's talking to Albert Brooks at Albert Brooks said, you give us our money back.

He was those people.

They won.

You lost.

You know, it's just so great when he's the guy who runs the desert in another one.

I love Greg is I'm sure you've seen stripes.

Yes.

All right, this is kind of a two-parter when the cruiser says he figured he'd better join up so he didn't get drafted.

And Sergeant Alka says, son, there ain't no draft, no more.

And then cruiser says, there was one.

I also like the line, too.

He goes, do you call me by my name?

Anyone calls me anything but.

Like chainsaw Francis.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Don't call me Francis.

I'll kick your butt.

Lighten up Francis.

Just

that.

Just that delivery.

Lighten up Francis.

Like it was a whole segment could be hulka lines.

Yeah.

Well, I mean, honestly, I even get to raising Arizona.

Oh, yeah.

But the line where Hulk is on top of he climbs the rope because any suckles want to come up here and knock me up.

All right, we got to go.

Very short break.

This is not like with the big Greg.

Welcome

back.

This is Nightlight with Pete Schwabba and Greg Bach.

Great to have you with us on this Wednesday night, folks.

Coming up in hour number two, Dennis Graham, who started at Rock Conson will be here telling us about this fantastic nonprofit organization he's created where teens get to compete.

Garage band teens get to compete in a battle of the bands and Summer Fest is the ultimate prize.

It's a great thing he's done.

We're gonna talk to him about that in hour number two.

We're gonna read some texts after the news.

Our question of the night is, who is the greatest lead singer?

And we are getting flooded with texts, which is outstanding to see.

And right now we've got a few more minutes to talk movie lines.

And I just thought of another one from Dumb and Dumber.

Jim Carrey comes out of the...

convenience store and see these young kids drinking beverages and he goes, hey guys, ooh, big gulps, huh?

All right, well, see you later.

Oh my gosh, that movie, when they see the couple, he goes, look at the butt on that one.

Oh,

he

must work out.

That is packed with lines too,

yeah.

So I can't even start with Raising Arizona.

There are too many lines in that movie.

That movie is just,

One of those films I can if you watch it with me, I won't say the lines But if you look at me, I'll be mouthing them the entire because I pretty much know that movie by heart, but I

Going back to Dr. Strangelove, because Peter Sellers plays three characters in that movie.

And there's a scene where he's talking to the antagonist played by Sterling Hayward, who was also in the Godfather part two.

He played the corrupt cop.

And he's trying to figure out why everything is happening.

And Sterling Hayward's character, which his name was General Ripper, Jack D. Ripper.

He's talking about like learning about himself and he goes I learned this during the physical act of love and you just there's a pause and Peter Sellers just goes Huh, that's it.

That's

like like oh, we're about to go to nuclear war here because a crazy man Found out in bed with a woman about life.

He just goes and then the other one is

A rookie of the year, John Candy plays a very small role as the, essentially like the, the Uker or Harry carry role.

He's the Cubs announcer.

And in this movie, the Cubs are terrible.

And this kid, whatever becomes a big league pitcher, but they win the game.

And his line goes, and this brings us to the longest streak the Cubs have had all season.

Long pause.

Two.

I just, it's, there are only certain people in the world who can deliver those lines.

Right.

Because they're just so naturally funny.

And every time I hear that line, two, it's just so John Candy.

It's so beautiful.

I love it so much.

It's

so great.

I've got two more quick ones too, and then we'll get to where I call, but it's the big Lebowski and other Colin Brothers film where John Chichiro comes up as the Jesus character and starts saying what they're going to do to him during the bowling tournament.

Yeah.

Lebowski just looks in and goes, yeah, well.

That's just like your opinion, man.

Not matching energy at all.

And then they call me Mr. Tibbs from In the Heat of the Night, City Portia, I love it.

Another one is a homegrown movie, Major League, when Bob Huker asks Skip Graparis, who's the actor in the booth with him, what he thinks.

And he just says he's not the best color man in the business for nothing, folks.

Classic line.

Oh, man.

Well, we do have a call right now.

Richard from Waukesha is calling in.

Good evening, Richard.

How are you this evening?

Well, I'm enjoying the weather outside here.

It's a little windy though.

All right.

I got some information about that thing in Waukesha at the Les Paul stage.

It's going to be a battle of the band.

OK.

It's gonna be only your own material for the band.

Gotcha.

Okay.

Good.

That was one of the things

that they they wanted, you know, no copying unless it's Les Paul your cop

Good luck if you're that fast

Yeah, and a guy I know that is connected with the Milwaukee and state music industry wrote a author few books

and he's got some connections with some big people.

He's even wanting to think maybe to go there.

You know, he was connected like with a group in Milwaukee years ago called the ROBS.

They had a studio in Milwaukee, one of the only ones.

Way back when the record in the studio was kind of different, but he's got connections and he's

authored a few books and what not.

He's working in transportation here in Washington.

Great.

Thank you so much, Richard.

Have a good one.

Thank you so much for passing information along.

I love seeing when bands are playing original music, especially Battle of the Bands.

It takes me back to when I was a kid.

Another person on the text line here, no, didn't give us a name.

They said, Norm MacDonald.

Well, I'm off to destroy Canada.

They've had

it too good for

too long.

Well, that sounds apropos for today, doesn't it?

Oh, that's so great.

There

are so many lines.

I mean, so, so many lines out there.

It's so good.

Here's one that answers our question of the night, which I like because the person he's talking about has been on Nightlight several times and they're a really great band up in Green Bay.

John from Oshkosh says, that guy from Ask Your Mother is pretty good.

That is Eric Arathsek.

And I agree, he's really fun and he performs in the studio and Eric is outstanding.

So thank you for the test, John.

Um, awesome.

Any other lines we need to get to, we gotta go to the news here, but

yeah, we gotta go to the news and just a little bit.

Well, we had another text here, uh, Brett from Brown Deer listening on WAUK.

I love the line.

John Candy says in stripes.

Well, we were all on our way to bingo and the directions got all followed up.

And one thing led to another.

Then, then when we got, we screamed shut up, John's like, okay, yep.

That was a great

reading by me, Mr. Greg Bach, everybody.

I'm a trained actor.

No, I'm not.

Um, the one I was saying before when I had to get caught up when Hulk is on, he climbs the rope to show them all how to do it.

And he just looks out and he says, and he was suck holes when I come up here and try to knock me off.

People say the

weirdest thing.

That's a

great line.

I've, I've tried to recreate that.

Sorry, Jeff from Tosa.

We can't legally read your text.

Yeah, no kidding.

Yeah.

Wow.

Wow.

These are all great folks.

We can't wait to read these, and we're going to do that after the news.

Mr. Lee, would you please?

Yes.

We have Dave from DeForest saying, Freddie Mercury, very to a strong start there.

Yeah.

And then we have Brett from Brown Deer.

Man, I had three singers I could have picked as much as I love Robert Plant and Ozzie.

I'm actually picking Getty Lee, if I'm saying that right, am I

saying that right?

Yeah, you're saying exactly right, Getty Lee.

Perfect.

Do you know why his name is Getty Lee?

I don't,

I haven't.

Because his mother was an immigrant and she didn't say Gary Lee, she said Getty.

So everyone just called him Getty.

Oh, no

kidding.

Yep.

Oh, that's great.

Yep.
