 Episode 16 of Coffee With Arnold


Broadcast on Tuesday the 26th of December 2023 and filmed in front of a live studio audience on Monday the 18th of December. (See the episode in our INSTAGRAM @coffeewitharnold)



Hello hello all you fans from around the WORLD! So nice to see all of you once again!





Welcome to our 16th episode of CWA! This episode is most likely going to be one of our last episodes……..


THIS YEAR!


We could sense your fright! Don't worry we are not stopping with this! Its far too much fun!


We apologize for us broadcasting so little after episode 15 that was sent out into the ether already the sixth of December on Finland's national day! That is almost THREE WEEKS without a new episode of CWA! We sincerely apologize for the wait! 

The lack of new episodes has not been up to us completely though and there have been all kinds of things going on here behind the scenes at our STUDIO COMPLEX ….not all of them nice if you don't mind us saying! Those of you who have been following the series, and we presume it is ALL OF YOU FANS, know that we have been the targets of deliberate sabotage! Someone wishes that CWA fails right in front of it's fans and our host Mr. Arnold Schwarzenegger makes a fool of himself in live TV! Well, said sabotage has continued and it is the reason why we have not been able to broadcast this episode earlier (the episode was filmed right at our studio 2 in front of a live audience already on Monday the 18th of December but we were not able to show it to you all before today!).  

We promise to tell you, THE FANS, all about this sabotage and the drama it has caused at our workplace in due time and you shall know exactly what has been going on behind the camera here at CWA! …but more about that at a later date!

On to other matters! Now that we have shown you approx. 3/6 of our highlights coverage (see also THIS and THIS)! of the CWAME you all have surely gotten some kind of a picture of the magnitude of that event! Once again, don't worry we will show you coverage of the whole event in due time and you will get to see exactly what happened with the MJOLNIR! And who became the new THOR! Just be patient with us!

Now.....let us get on to today's show! As we told you the show was filmed already on Monday the 18th of December so what you will see is a recording of that night's live footage! 



Welcome folks to the show! 


And who might we have behind our Mystery Door on this fine December Monday?





Drum roll.....




It...is.....the anonymous competitor from CWAME who was dressed as Winnie-the-Pooh's friend TIGGER! (look for the coverage of CWAME and see this competitor in action in our INSTA! Or from this link!) 




Who might be hiding under that mask? Is it Winnie-the-Pooh himself perhaps? Like we promised you: every single contestant's, who competed in CWAME, identity will be revealed to you at this show!


So keep chanting "off with the mask!" and we will reveal this evening's guest!


"Off with the mask!"


"Off with the mask!"


And our guest of the evening is revealed……ta-daa!.......he is……..

One. 


Of. 


The. 


Most. 


Legendary. 


Hollywood. 


Leading.


Men.


Mr. Sex symbol of the 90s!


The. 


Most handsomest! 


Mister.....................









Give a huge round of applause to Mr. Brad Pitt, who by  the way celebrates his 60th birthday this very day the 18th of December!



And take a look at that: Mr. Pitt was wearing a prosthetic belly at the CWAME (!) to disguise his true identity. Quite the jester that good old Mr. Pitt isn't he!?




Now its time for some birthday coffee (with Arnold!) and a chat about Mr. Pitt’s long and illustriously successful career in the movie business!
















After the coffee has been drunk and some delicious birthday cupcakes have been devoured we look at how Mr. Pitt fared at the CWAME….




Unfortunately Brad Pitt fared as poorly as the rest, except for that one anonymous contestant who was able to move the MJOLNIR for one single inch! better luck next time Mr. Pitt! We surely would have liked to see you as THOR! All you fans of Pitt (and let us ask you: who isn't!?): just imagine Achilles in a red cape and a winged helmet! Wow! Just imagine THAT






Then it is time to look at a recreation of a legendary movie still form the movie Fight Club (1999) that we created together with Mr. Pitt at the backstage area during CWAME! 


                                                 







Fight Club is probably the movie of Pitt's that has had the longest lasting and widest cultural impact! They actually founded some real life fight clubs in the movie's wake if you can believe! And we thought that the writer of the book, that the movie is based on, Chuck Palahniuk only tried to make a critique of macho masculinity with his story.....well, perhaps our ham-fisted opinion is only fitting for such a complex analysis on manliness! Maybe Fight Club was actually 50% critique and 50% praise of said masculinity: a form of being a man that is today (the 2020s) perhaps labeled as toxic. Everyone are entitled to draw their own conclusions! Is there a place for such masculinity that the film portrays anymore? We do not know but what we DO KNOW is that there is always place for more CWA! 




We here at CWA love Fight Club though and think it is s a masterpiece! Perhaps the director David Fincher's finest work to date! And one of Pitt's best roles.....if not his absolute BEST! (Meet Joe Black comes as a strong second......we're only joking! We here at CWA love that one too, to be honest! Who doesn't!



Right about then as this episode was filmed Mr. Pitt really surprised us all by suddenly exhibiting his art! For those of you who haven't been following the latest goings on of the art-world: these days Mr. Brad Pitt is also a sculptor and he had his firs exhibition right here in Finland at at Sara Hildén Art Museum in Tampere (check out coverage of the exhibition and pictures of Pitt's works!). 



We here at CWA marveled at the sculptures Pitt had brought to our studio 2 and he even gave one to our host Mr. Arnold Schwarzenegger! This particular sculpture was called "Self-inflicted gunshot wound to the evolution (Isla Sorna)"! 

We are truly grateful for Mr. Pitt for giving us this fabulously arty gift! And it was his birthday not Arnie's on the 18th! Thank you mister Brad Pitt! He is a man of many talents isn't he!?


Then it is time for the end of episode routines and that's it! Thank you all for watching CWA, we sincerely appreciate it! We hope you all had a good time with us! We hope you all have a merry rest of the holiday season and we wish you ALL a goooood night! 










Here are some fun stills from the night's episode!



Now take a look at this!


When we opened the 24th window in our very own Christmas Calendar on Christmas eve in INSTAGRAM we also showed a picture of Santa Claus with a few little helpers! Santa has so much to do on that one day of the year that he surely needs some help! And guess who was one of Santa's little helpers behind a mask?













CWA will return with episode number 17 before the year is through and turns into 2024! So stay tuned! See you ALL! Näkemisiin!
