That's amazing, and thank you for transcribing it.

One question, didn't Handler actually mention Vampire's Kiss after Ben said the line about Flashdance? I remember giggling because it's one of my favorite movies and I knew that's what he was going to say when he said "overlooked dark comedy".

You have the audio recording obviously, so perhaps my mind is playing tricks on me. It does that.

BG: Wow, Jennifer Beals! From Flashdance? Not only from Flashdance but from an overlooked dark comedy starring Nicolas Cage called Vampire’s Kiss. Wow.

You know, it might have been, but it really sounded like Ben. Daniel and Ben's voices differ, yes, but I thought it was Ben. It really does make more sense if Handler says it.
But it sounded like Ben, so that's how I put it.

I must make a point of seeing Vampire's Kiss now.
