Matt:
Ugh, sorry
07-15 18:33
Rush:
I am still waiting for our internet to return.
07-15 18:33
Mike & Rachel in DC:
Oh gosh, Rush. And the absolute worst weather for that to happen. It’s perishingly hot here.
07-15 18:34
Rush:
I am using phone data at the moment
07-15 18:34
Mike & Rachel in DC:
Yikes. Power outage?
07-15 18:34
Matt:
In the basement where it’s cool?
07-15 18:34
Rush:
Yes…with humidity, the heat index is pretty tough!
07-15 18:34
Ziah:
Sorry to hear that Rush. Hope you get your AC back up and running soon!
07-15 18:35
Rush:
Yes, but I am upstairs at the moment.
07-15 18:35
Rush:
We put in the call for AC repair, yes
07-15 18:36
Matt:
Hope it doesn’t take too much longer
07-15 18:36

We have Amrrican Home Shoelf, and it has really paid off over the years!
Shield
07-15 18:36

07-15 18:37
Rush:
Big finger, little keys!

07-15 18:37
Mike & Rachel in DC:
And I see my students type with two thumbs at the speed of light…no idea how to do that on an iPhone myself
07-15 18:37
Rush:
I guess you guys saw the extras listed for tonight.
07-15 18:38
Mike & Rachel in DC:
Just opened the email. They look interesting and fun. 
07-15 18:38
Matt:
Yes….they look good!
07-15 18:39
Rush:
They focus on Scotty’s Castle (in the desert) and the Mojave Desert itself.
07-15 18:39
Rush:
It seems every time we see this movie the weather is appropriately hot!
07-15 18:40
Ziah:
An immersive viewing experience
07-15 18:40
Mike & Rachel in DC:
Well, we have the heat here in DC, but the Mojave Desert never saw this humidity…
07-15 18:40
Matt:
Since we have 3 extras, should we get ready to roll?
07-15 18:40
Rush:
I think Zia’s won’t be here tonight as he was traveling to Singapore.
07-15 18:40
Ziah:
I am here!
07-15 18:41
Matt:
You are!
07-15 18:41
Ziah:
I arrived back late last night.
07-15 18:41
Mike & Rachel in DC:
But where is Nothere?
07-15 18:41
Rush:
I would suggest 15 before the hour.
07-15 18:41
Matt:
Ok
07-15 18:41
Rush:
NT is Not Here!
07-15 18:42
Mike & Rachel in DC:
Rush, are you on a break for the summer, or are you teaching now?
07-15 18:42
Rush:
For a long time I took the name to be No There!
Hence…NT!
07-15 18:43
Mike & Rachel in DC:
You know, since I got to know the Chan Clan, every time I’m in an airport and look at the map. I see “You Are Here” and I think of Nothere.
07-15 18:43
Rush:
My wife and I are on summer break
07-15 18:43
Mike & Rachel in DC:
Good, Rush. She’s a teacher too?
07-15 18:43
Matt:
Here is the 1st extra of the night
07-15 18:43
Rush:
We will be going to California at the end of the month to see our older daughter and some family
07-15 18:44
Mike & Rachel in DC:
I’m conducting a band of HS kids at a summer music camp. Wow. The post-COVID HS kids are very different than before…
07-15 18:44
Rush:
Ah! The actual Castle in the Desert.
07-15 18:44

When they find Shelah Fane dead.
07-15 18:47
Matt:
I can’t wait to hear your report Rush
07-15 18:47
Ziah:
Yes, good luck Rush.
07-15 18:47
Rush:
TYSM
I will look at some other things as well.
07-15 18:49
Rush:
This will mark my return there for the first time since 2000 when I made 8 trips up from San Diego to type out the four lost film scripts!
07-15 18:50
Rush:
Ah! Zia’s!
Ziah
07-15 18:51
Rush:
I am on my phone and the blasted self-correct feature kicks in!
Are you in Singapore?
07-15 18:51
Ziah:
Hi Rush! I just got back to HCMC last night.
07-15 18:52
Rush:
I see. Do you go soon to Singapore?
07-15 18:52
Matt:
Very interesting clip!
07-15 18:53
Rush:
Glad you enjoyed it!
07-15 18:53
Matt:
Here is the next extra:
07-15 18:53
Mike & Rachel in DC:
Woo hoo. Thanks, Rush. A real Castle in The Desert
07-15 18:53
Matt:
07-15 18:53
Ziah:
I was in Singapore, yes. I got home late last night. Singapore is a fantastic place to visit.
Great extra!
07-15 18:54
Matt:
Ready?
07-15 18:54
Mike & Rachel in DC:
Is this the real Mojave Wells?
07-15 18:54
Ziah:
Yep
07-15 18:54
Mike & Rachel in DC:
All set, Matt!
07-15 18:54

Matt:

GO!
07-15 18:54
Rush:
So, this is about a town that recalls the town CC and Jimmy arrive at before visiting Manderley Castle.
07-15 18:55
Rush:
In the movie it’s Mojave Wells.
This one is Stovepipe Wells, I believe.
07-15 18:56
Matt:
Yes
07-15 18:56
Rush:
It sort off feels like a modern day version of the town in the movie!
07-15 18:58
Matt:
Hello Tenman!
07-15 18:58
Mike & Rachel in DC:
if I were going back to a place named “Furnace Creek” I would probably find a different locale!
07-15 18:58
Ziah:
Two fascinating clips there. Thanks Rush and Matt.
07-15 18:58
Mike & Rachel in DC:
We are sweating just watching that video!
07-15 18:58
Matt:
2nd clip done…..looked HOT
07-15 18:59
tenman:
Hola. Just checking in. If the power doesn’t come back on soon I won’t be able to join. I can either watch the movie on the phone or chat here on the phone. My Kindle isn’t on my phone provider so it needs the internet that is currently out because there’s no power to the router. But castle in the desert is my favorite Vhan
07-15 18:59
Rush:
When you see the title card for “Castle in the Desert” the map they made is actually pretty accurate of the area. Sort of like the Cocos Island map that is seen at the title of “Dead Men Tell.”
Hello, TM!
07-15 18:59
Matt:
Our last extra is:
07-15 18:59
Rush:
Matt is at the wheel tonight.
07-15 18:59
Mike & Rachel in DC:
Hola, 10man. Sorry you’re having power issues. But in case of emergency, watch Chan movies!
07-15 19:00
Matt:
Ready?
07-15 19:00
Ziah:

07-15 19:00
Matt:
15 seconds
07-15 19:00
tenman:
Yeah I got to conserve what battery power I have. We do have a backup generator that we have to fire up which we will probably do around 8:30 which is 3 hours after the power went off just to run the refrigerators so the food doesn’t spoil. 90° here today in Ohio
07-15 19:00
Matt:

GO!
07-15 19:01
Rush:
My family and I visited Death Valley about 6 years ago and it was nearly 130 degrees that day!
07-15 19:01
Matt:
But it’s a “dry” heat?
07-15 19:02
Rush:
So you have a power outage as well?
Yes, Matt!
Dry and HOT
07-15 19:03
Rush:
Manderley Castle would be cool inside though due to the thick walls
07-15 19:03
Mike & Rachel in DC:
A branding iron is dry heat, too…
07-15 19:03
Matt:
Very nice extras Rush, Thnx!
07-15 19:04
Mike & Rachel in DC:
A+ on the desert extras, Rush. Thank you!
07-15 19:04
Rush:
I hope everyone got something out of them, Matt.
07-15 19:04
Ziah:
Yes, enjoyed all of those extras, thank you.
07-15 19:04
