What the speakers say drew on it, marked the same way.

Jeff Bridges: 1 line the host's read ×1

  1. career (career turn): The Big Lebowski ⇒ Jeff Bridges (the host's read). Lebowski broke something in Bridges and led to his later gruff-coot era.
    “And then Lebowski obviously, like, breaks something in him that leads to the next era of, I'm a billy goat, gruff eating a tin can.”

The Jesus Rolls: 1 line the host's read ×1

  1. unmapped (spinoff): The Big Lebowski ⇒ The Jesus Rolls (the host's read). Turturro's The Jesus Rolls is a Big Lebowski side-quel made without the Coens, but is really a remake of Going Places.
    “The Jesus roles, which, of course, was the Jesus, uh, Santana side cool to Big Lebowski that he made without the participation of the, uh, the Cohen brothers.”
