Summary
Overview
Paul Scheer hosts Last Looks for Happy Birthday to Me, featuring corrections and omissions from listeners about the bizarre Canadian slasher film. The episode includes listener feedback on strange details like the creepy therapist, toilet/bidet debates, and the main character's head injury. Jason Mantzoukas joins for a scary movie trivia battle covering past horror films covered on the show, with mixed results as both hosts struggle to remember titles from their 17-year catalogue.
Therapist Boundary Issues and Canadian Crime Scene Protocols
Listeners highlight the deeply inappropriate behavior of Ginny's therapist, Dr. David, who stays overnight at her house like it's a sleepover and answers her door for police. The discussion extends to questionable Canadian law enforcement practices, including letting random citizens handle potential homicide evidence without gloves. The hosts defend some of these choices while acknowledging the general weirdness of the film's authority figures.
- The therapist stays at Ginny's house overnight until her father gets home, then answers the door for police like he lives there
- Canadian police let Dr. David inspect a skull buried on school grounds without gloves
- Only evil people's fingerprints stick in Canadian law, according to Paul's joke theory
" How many people in high school are having slumber parties with their mental health professionals? "
The Great Bidet Debate Resolution
A listener provides photographic evidence debunking the hosts' claims about Ginny's bathroom, proving both a toilet and bidet are visible in one shot. This leads to extended discussion about bidet attachments and an enthusiastic caller from Indianapolis who passionately advocates for the Tushy brand, delivering what Paul calls the best bidet advertisement ever made.
- Photo evidence shows both toilet and bidet are clearly visible in Ginny's bathroom, debunking the hosts
- Grant from Indianapolis delivers an impassioned testimonial about Tushy bidet attachments
- Grant explains his friend's analogy: if you get dirt on your hand, you don't just wipe it with dry paper towel
" So if you get dirt on your hand do you just rub a dry paper towel on it? I was like you know that's a good point and then covid hit and toilet paper was scarce so we ordered one "
