Episode Transcript
Speaker 1 00:00:09 To Tuesday night gaming with Alana, Jay, Matt, and Zach. And today we are finally back to our crown jewel of podcasting.
Speaker 2 00:00:22 Yes we are. But unfortunately I have some bad news first to share.
Speaker 1 00:00:27 Uh, what,
Speaker 2 00:00:30 Because as you guys know my favorite TV show, the real was canceled a couple months ago, due to COVID
Speaker 1 00:00:37 19. That's your favorite TV show?
Speaker 2 00:00:39 Well, let's just say I watch it every day. His favorite daytime TV show. Yeah, my favorite daytime TV talk show. But today on the day we were recording Fox five in DC, officially stopped airing reruns of it at the same time. Oh, wow. So it is truly gone.
Speaker 1 00:00:55 Wow.
Speaker 2 00:00:56 Not even the reruns.
Speaker 1 00:00:58 Wow.
Speaker 2 00:00:58 Yeah. I guess I'm gonna have to go on their YouTube channel and watch some, I thought just,
Speaker 1 00:01:03 I dunno what that has to do with star girl. Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:01:05 I thought this was related to star girl. It's not, it's just other things going on, but I wanted to just share the bad news first. Wow. By the way. And or should be starting soon as well.
Speaker 1 00:01:15 Uh, I think it starts at the end of the month. Yep. Let's not worry about
Speaker 3 00:01:18 That. Like the 26th or
Speaker 2 00:01:20 27. Let's just not think about it.
Speaker 1 00:01:21 <laugh> let's just enjoy Stargirl okay. Geez.
Speaker 2 00:01:24 I am a enjoy. I'm just, I'm just stressing me out because Andor is gonna have a three, three episode premier.
Speaker 1 00:01:30 Oh my God.
Speaker 2 00:01:31 Stargirl it's just a lot.
Speaker 1 00:01:32 That's a lot. No, we,
Speaker 2 00:01:34 We could handle three episodes of Titans. We handle three episodes of Andor. It almost killed us though.
Speaker 1 00:01:39 It did
Speaker 2 00:01:40 Three episode Titans was that was,
Speaker 3 00:01:43 That was a thing
Speaker 2 00:01:44 I was, that was like our Vietnam. I think it would be fair to say <laugh> okay. President.
Speaker 3 00:01:49 I was talking to Christian and he is like, you got, you all did three episodes. Oh, what were you thinking? I was like, I, I don't think us were thinking we
Speaker 1 00:01:58 Were, we were thinking we need to be done with this crap before Stargirl and that was the beginning and end of the thought.
Speaker 2 00:02:04 Absolutely
Speaker 1 00:02:06 Didn't wanna, you know, share our air time.
Speaker 2 00:02:09 No,
Speaker 3 00:02:10 I dunno why I couldn't fly to you. Like my guy, my Coco was just like, no, I'm going straight down. <laugh> so I'm so,
Speaker 2 00:02:18 But anyway. Yeah. So today we are finally back to star girl. This episode made me so happy. Maybe it's just because it's contrast from Titans <laugh> it was charming. I had a smile on my
Speaker 1 00:02:30 Face. It was. Do you guys think that they're trying to make Joelle Jack Knight? Yes or no?
Speaker 2 00:02:37 I did feel a little bit of that. I, I thought they were going to, but if they were, I think he would've been, he would've been portrayed quite differently.
Speaker 1 00:02:47 I thought, I mean, he's wearing a leather jacket and he has, he had facial hair this time.
Speaker 3 00:02:53 He was talking about the facial hair.
Speaker 1 00:02:55 <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:02:58 Doesn't act like Jack Knight, like Jack Knight. He
Speaker 1 00:03:00 Doesn't really act like Sylvester Pemberton either. Well, Jack
Speaker 2 00:03:04 Sylvester Pemberton has no personality to act like.
Speaker 1 00:03:06 Yeah, that's true. Uh, what, what is Jack Knight like?
Speaker 2 00:03:09 He's he's an asshole.
Speaker 1 00:03:11 <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:03:12 Yeah. He's a little rough around the edges. Oh, like when, especially when you first meet him, like when we first meet him at smart man, he's a complete, he's like a Dick. Yeah.
Speaker 1 00:03:22 I mean, he's like, my dad loved my brother more and my brother's dead, so I will never be happy.
Speaker 2 00:03:28 Yeah. He's like contrarian, uh, hates like joining things. He doesn't like really like the idea of superheroes, right? Like is disrespectful to his dad. He's like, and makes fun of his brother for wanting to be Starman. So he's just, he's very, he's definitely rough around the edges on his first appear, which he would be if it was, they were gonna make him. So I don't think so. I think they're just going their own way with this big character. That
Speaker 1 00:03:54 Being sad own way.
Speaker 2 00:03:56 I, I per, I don't know if anyone else feels this way. I'm personally waiting for Joel Al's heel turn.
Speaker 1 00:04:02 Oh yeah, absolutely. She, 100%. Andrew was like, is he a shapeshifter he's acting really weird.
Speaker 2 00:04:07 <laugh> he's acting so super nice to the point of suspicious us. You guys wanna shield ke yeah. Wasn't there some reveal where he was a shapeshifter or am I misremember? I'm at,
Speaker 1 00:04:18 I think you're misremembering.
Speaker 2 00:04:20 I was probably thinking of something from Titans, but yeah. The part where he's flying, I definitely felt like he was Jack Knight. I was like, this is the close we can get to it. I'm pretty happy with it.
Speaker 1 00:04:30 Yeah. I, yeah. I remember like in the past, on this show, there's been all these opportunities for them to bring in 10 night. Like when the staff wasn't working and now I'm like, well, they could bring him in. They could make two staffs. They just need to call Ted night and they still, they they're just not doing it. And at this point, you know, maybe we just need to give up. It's not happening.
Speaker 2 00:04:49 Well, I don't think we should give up, but I also don't think it's gonna happen any anytime soon. My suspicion is that the reason why they had MB semesters Pemberton is so they could have the freedom to do Jack Knight if they want to. But do they want to, we shall, we shall say <laugh>.
Speaker 1 00:05:05 Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:05:06 Yeah. That's why I agree. That's why they made him. So,
Speaker 1 00:05:09 Cause they could give him like the dinky Starman rod, like the one Ted has, they had help. We made you a little one. Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:05:15 Mm-hmm <affirmative> it's the gravity rod.
Speaker 1 00:05:18 Okay. Whatever, man. They don't call it Cosmo in uh, Cosmo. Yeah. I was like
Speaker 2 00:05:24 Comics. Yeah. So what I was sort of hoping was that Joe Macha stays nice and he kind of buzzes off. And then Jack, I is the one who shows up and says, the rod belongs to me, give it to me. And they have that whole conflict about that.
Speaker 1 00:05:40 Whoa, that'd be a lot.
Speaker 2 00:05:43 I think so actually I think Jack Knight is not gonna show up on this show because if he does show up, he's gonna be too similar. So
Speaker 1 00:05:51 That's true. That's show he'll be super similar. So that's
Speaker 2 00:05:54 The American audience. Can't tell the difference. It's not so I'm sorry, dude. It's not happening. I'm not until at least, I mean, unless they made, 'em like super hipster and like with the tattoos and the beard and no, and no leather jacket, but yeah. I'm just thinking about it from a television, like production point of view. Are you? Yes, I we'll see. So anyways, so are we gonna, are we going in order or are we just sort of yeah, no we're off. Okay. So that this opening made me very happy. The Neil song, the world, what that's going,
Speaker 1 00:06:34 How
Speaker 2 00:06:34 Much,
Speaker 1 00:06:36 How much they paid for it.
Speaker 2 00:06:38 Oh, a lot. Anytime you have, you put popular songs in, in TVs and movies, you have to pay a shit load of money.
Speaker 1 00:06:45 Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:06:46 Yeah. So apparently the mechanic guy is back, which I don't think anybody asked for and Ja and the shade I, which you know, Alana is happy about.
Speaker 1 00:06:56 Oh, of course Jonathan cake, my boy, there
Speaker 2 00:06:59 Was really no indication that he was gonna be back.
Speaker 1 00:07:02 They writers too obsessed with him. They're like shade has to be in every plot. And I mean, I'm, I'm here for it, but cause he's
Speaker 2 00:07:09 Great. He's important to, to, to Jack Knight star man comic.
Speaker 1 00:07:14 I know that's why I Jack Knight maybe Sylvester is Jack Knight. A shapeshifter <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:07:25 He shape shifted from one generic white guy to another generic white guy.
Speaker 1 00:07:28 Yeah. That
Speaker 2 00:07:29 Sounds about
Speaker 1 00:07:30 Right. You know, I, so Sylvester's like, I have no purpose in life. My life was being Starman. I don't know what to do. I'm like, how about find out how you came back from the dead? Like that seems like a pretty good plot to do, you know, don't just be like, oh the staff did. It's like, I don't, the staff can
Speaker 2 00:07:47 Do that. I don't think the staff can do that. Staff doesn't work that way. Yeah.
Speaker 1 00:07:53 Forced doesn't work that way.
Speaker 2 00:07:55 Yeah. I guess he doesn't seem too interested. He's kind of dumb. He's just like, yeah. I'm I'm I'm like Jesus <laugh> I needed to come back. The world needed without me. Uh okay. So yeah. I like Jaqui being afraid of shade and who can blame him, but that made me wonder is Jaqui part of the JSA or not. Cause there's a part where they all get together to fight the no limit gang. And he's not one of 'em. Yeah. I don't think he is.
Speaker 1 00:08:24 Yeah. I guess. I
Speaker 2 00:08:25 Mean, maybe he's too young even though he has, you know, unimaginable <laugh> cosmic power. Yeah. So, um, I like that. I like the, the, the sticker family.
Speaker 1 00:08:38 Oh the, the CROs,
Speaker 2 00:08:40 The CROs of the sticker family on the back of their car. Yeah. Yeah. And they all like have weapons and stuff. So Jay,
Speaker 1 00:08:48 They all go on runs together.
Speaker 2 00:08:50 Yeah. They're
Speaker 1 00:08:51 Family that runs
Speaker 2 00:08:52 Together and really still angry this time that his superpower is no longer lasting for an hour. Well, he cause he broke the hour glass. Right? Yeah. And I guess he's trying to fix it again. Yeah. Well he's also, well,
Speaker 3 00:09:07 He is not really trying to fix
Speaker 2 00:09:08 It cause he's in love with Grundy. He loves Grundy as much as the writer loves shade.
Speaker 1 00:09:12 He's not trying to fix it, Jay.
Speaker 3 00:09:14 I don't think. Well, he, he probably is, but like, it's not like an active thing that we're seeing right now.
Speaker 1 00:09:20 He was doing it last season. I think we're just it's implied. Right?
Speaker 3 00:09:24 Right now all we're seeing is him trying to revive corn.
Speaker 2 00:09:26 Did he
Speaker 3 00:09:27 He's moved on.
Speaker 2 00:09:28 Did he fix it in time for the final battle?
Speaker 3 00:09:30 No.
Speaker 2 00:09:32 Okay. That cell, he EC cell.
Speaker 3 00:09:35 Okay. Where, how do I get my KA Kaha?
Speaker 2 00:09:39 Oh, so there's capsules around
Speaker 3 00:09:41 What
Speaker 2 00:09:42 Capsules? Get you one. There are these capsules
Speaker 1 00:09:45 And you oh, in the game. Not in, uh, Starro non
Speaker 2 00:09:48 Starro. Hahas from there.
Speaker 3 00:09:50 Imagine Starro with a KA. Haha.
Speaker 1 00:09:52 I know. We see Cindy helping an old lady across the street.
Speaker 3 00:09:56 She's so bitter about it too. Reluctantly. It's great. Very
Speaker 2 00:09:59 Reluctantly. Yeah. So guys help me just gambler's back.
Speaker 1 00:10:05 Yeah. And Yolanda seems like better, you know? She seems fine. Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:10:10 I agree. She's at peace.
Speaker 3 00:10:11 Ishish
Speaker 2 00:10:12 Well she was gonna the team, right?
Speaker 1 00:10:14 Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:10:14 She was like I'm ARR.
Speaker 3 00:10:17 But now she has to keep her eye
Speaker 1 00:10:18 On. I'm the one that kills.
Speaker 2 00:10:21 I'm the killer actually guys. So kill me. Remember, I seem to remember that in the JSA comic reforming super villains was what they did. But the only one I could think of specifically was black. Adam, what about brainwave?
Speaker 1 00:10:33 No, no, no. Brainwave Jr. Was always a good guy.
Speaker 2 00:10:35 Really?
Speaker 1 00:10:36 Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:10:37 Okay.
Speaker 1 00:10:38 He was part of infinity, Inc. Yes.
Speaker 2 00:10:41 I don't think it's accurate to say that. That's what they do is reform super.
Speaker 1 00:10:46 Yeah. I agree about that
Speaker 2 00:10:48 Uhhuh. Yeah. To say that, but yeah, like part of the things they do not entirely. Uh, okay. So then the first joke I laughed out loud at was Joe Michaelle saying to Mike, do you though?
Speaker 1 00:11:07 Oh, about shaving,
Speaker 2 00:11:08 About shaving. Jay. Did he take this personally?
Speaker 1 00:11:11 <laugh> wow.
Speaker 2 00:11:13 Now he's going. I heard, I heard Jay make a couple comments about it.
Speaker 1 00:11:18 Wait, Jay doesn't shave.
Speaker 3 00:11:20 What,
Speaker 2 00:11:21 What, what, what, what, what, what, Ooh, me.
Speaker 3 00:11:26 Uh, I shave like maybe once every two weeks.
Speaker 1 00:11:29 I mean, honestly that sounds pretty convenient. That's
Speaker 2 00:11:32 How much I do.
Speaker 3 00:11:33 It's very convenient.
Speaker 1 00:11:35 Yeah. If I could only shave my legs once every two weeks. And that was like, I was good. Like I would do that.
Speaker 2 00:11:39 Hey, how often do you shave your legs?
Speaker 1 00:11:41 Like never
Speaker 2 00:11:43 God. I, cause I set myself up for
Speaker 1 00:11:46 That one. Yeah. Seriously.
Speaker 2 00:11:47 As the, my favorite murder people say F you I'm married.
Speaker 1 00:11:51 <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:11:53 Uh, yeah, that was funny. So yeah. So Joel McKay is so nice. He's like in an apron he's like
Speaker 3 00:11:59 He's face. Nice. So we all know it.
Speaker 2 00:12:01 It says, wait, here comes the
Speaker 1 00:12:03 Car. He fixed the, uh, the very nice island that they have that uh what's her face destroyed.
Speaker 2 00:12:10 Star girl.
Speaker 1 00:12:11 Courtney.
Speaker 3 00:12:12 Yeah. The kitchen counter with its marble.
Speaker 1 00:12:15 Yeah. How was he? I guess he was also house sitting for them. I guess he's moved in kinda weird.
Speaker 3 00:12:22 He's in the basement.
Speaker 1 00:12:24 I know. But
Speaker 2 00:12:25 There was a lot of
Speaker 3 00:12:26 Basement dweller, a
Speaker 2 00:12:27 Lot of jumps. Kind of logical leaps.
Speaker 1 00:12:30 Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:12:32 How's that? Well, it's just cuz like they didn't have a conversation about like, because it's the time jump. They don't explain stuff. Like I thought you were dead.
Speaker 3 00:12:43 What do you mean
Speaker 2 00:12:44 When Starman comes back? They were like, we thought you were dead for years.
Speaker 1 00:12:48 Uhhuh. Did they talk about that in the finale? I don't know.
Speaker 3 00:12:52 Yeah. I feel like they did. Oh,
Speaker 2 00:12:53 Not really
Speaker 1 00:12:54 Think so.
Speaker 3 00:12:56 They're shoot big
Speaker 1 00:12:57 Me. Oh those are AIS.
Speaker 3 00:12:59 Are they? Cause they just sniped the shit outta me.
Speaker 1 00:13:02 Well they have a question mark over their head. One of them has a
Speaker 2 00:13:10 Okay. Maybe we should move on. So trying to fight 'em okay. Here comes the car.
Speaker 1 00:13:14 So I have a question though. Who is Cindy's guardian?
Speaker 2 00:13:18 The fake mom.
Speaker 1 00:13:20 No, her, her mom is dead. Right? Her fake mom?
Speaker 3 00:13:24 No, I don't think so. Was taken by. Right.
Speaker 2 00:13:29 Uh, alright. So yeah.
Speaker 1 00:13:31 Cindy killed her, her cult mom. I'm pretty sure. And her, she killed her dad. So who's her guardian.
Speaker 3 00:13:40 She doesn't,
Speaker 1 00:13:42 She doesn't have one.
Speaker 3 00:13:44 Yeah. Why was she, why does she need one? She doesn't
Speaker 2 00:13:48 She's a minor
Speaker 3 00:13:49 <laugh> so I didn't have one.
Speaker 2 00:13:52 I imagine she just used some kind of, you know,
Speaker 1 00:13:55 Were you emancipated?
Speaker 3 00:13:57 No.
Speaker 1 00:13:57 Well, how did you like who enrolled you in school?
Speaker 3 00:14:00 I was already enrolled once you were enrolled. You're enrolled.
Speaker 1 00:14:06 Okay. All right.
Speaker 2 00:14:08 Yeah. I mean city's got money in connections.
Speaker 1 00:14:11 Does
Speaker 2 00:14:12 She? I didn't really think about it. Yes. She's former ISA now JSA
Speaker 1 00:14:17 Uhhuh <affirmative>
Speaker 2 00:14:18 Um, but anyway, yeah. So seems like the big conflict of this episode is do they trust the CROX and the gambler
Speaker 2 00:14:28 CROs? They don't really have a whole lot of choice about, you know, like if the CROs wanted to kill them, they could do that at pretty much any time it's like, do you think a locked door would really stop them? That's why this whole thing about the superhero and villains, all living in a small town together is kind of silly. Basically what we're talking about. Do they trust the CROs or not? And they don't really have a choice. No, you definitely can't trust them. But you also, I, again, this is a little bit confusing because aren't they wanted criminals.
Speaker 3 00:15:02 Um,
Speaker 2 00:15:04 CROs, remember when they
Speaker 3 00:15:05 Escape,
Speaker 2 00:15:07 Remember they like escaped from prison and yeah. Yeah. I get like Cindy
Speaker 1 00:15:12 To see their football game.
Speaker 3 00:15:14 Didn't they get? Yeah. Uh, I wanna say last season they were pardoned at some point or they managed to figure out, get out
Speaker 2 00:15:25 It. I said Monday next match. It says waiting for all party members to leave game dude. So please leave lobby and ready out. Uh, yeah. And then the gambler is like, I don't even know what's happening. I, I really didn't like that plot line.
Speaker 3 00:15:48 Oh
Speaker 2 00:15:49 The gambler one where he's trying to find his daughter. Yeah. And he's like, guys, believe me, I'm a good guy. Now
Speaker 3 00:15:57 What's up a yeah. Like, and he, but he doesn't even say he's a good guy. He just says, he's looking for his daughter and he'll do whatever it takes to find. And he wants to make, make sure that she knows that he's not an asshole. <laugh> and it's like, wait, what? So you're not even saying you're a good guy. You're just a Nonas asshole. But you are an asshole
Speaker 2 00:16:16 At this current time, he is pursuing legitimate goals. <laugh> and is he, and he's like, I wanna be a good father to my daughter and it zooms in on Cordy. And she's like, he's got the puppy, dog eyes. <laugh> he knows just what to say. I've like before he digs his tiny little Derringer and puts it in the trashcan, he's like, no, no, no longer. No, I does all of the ISA know their secret identity.
Speaker 3 00:16:43 I
Speaker 2 00:16:43 A little bit more in the recap of stuff like that. I
Speaker 1 00:16:46 Think they do it than season one.
Speaker 2 00:16:48 Okay. Yeah.
Speaker 1 00:16:50 I mean, brainwave, it's hard to keep a secret identity from brainwave.
Speaker 2 00:16:53 That's
Speaker 3 00:16:53 True. Yeah. I'm pretty sure brainwave or Cindy, Cindy finds out and then she lets it go,
Speaker 2 00:17:01 Go. Yeah. She was like, was able to do what none of you could. Right. I'm Cindy Berman. What about the part where Joel McCale tells about waking up in his C? Yeah, that was crazy. I
Speaker 1 00:17:14 Know. That's why he should be much more curious about why he is back from the, from the dead.
Speaker 2 00:17:18 He doesn't seem like a very curious guy. I mean, as it comes, he's had a weird life. I'm sure that's not the weirdest thing that's ever happened to him.
Speaker 3 00:17:26 I feel like he says that like the weirdest thing he's had in his life,
Speaker 2 00:17:30 The other thing that was that weird immediately after that part is, is Sylvester's like you have a bond with Cosmo. I have a bond with him too. And I kind of wanted to be like, I feel like the, I feel like he should have treated the staff more. Like that's a potential area of conflict where he could have treated the staff as more like an object mm-hmm <affirmative> and, and Courtney's the one who treats it like a person, you know? He's like, what are you talking about? A bond. There's no bond. Like, it's a, it's an object. It does what I tell it to do. Right. You, you Don broad. Yeah. Well, again, that's an opportunity for Jack Knight to be like that. When he, when he shows up this season, what's happening because it's supposed to be like men, there's supposed to be like men of science. And that's like a, not a very scientific approach to this object. Right? It's not like your car. You, it's not like you have a bond with your car and it knows, you know what you're thinking it, excuse you. Some people name their cars. Yeah.
Speaker 3 00:18:26 How do you not have a bond with your car? That's just rude.
Speaker 2 00:18:30 <laugh> rude to the car. What about your toaster? Jay? Do you have a bond with your toaster?
Speaker 3 00:18:36 Yeah, I use it every day. <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:18:39 That'll develop a bond for you. Uh, okay. So then yeah, there's the whole locked, locking the door thing and crusher just letting himself in there
Speaker 3 00:18:48 Is someone shooting.
Speaker 2 00:18:49 Yeah. That was funny. Well, and, and then the part, yeah, the part where they're arguing about whether the door should be locked or not kinda kinda curious, I'm on my way, Jay Courtney's like we have to learn to trust them pat, believe in people. Doesn't that? What being a good guy's all about. I think that's a pretty good theme for this season.
Speaker 1 00:19:10 Like mostly cuz I mean we can hang out with sports masters some more.
Speaker 2 00:19:15 Yeah. It also go ahead. Uh, no, go ahead buddy. I was gonna say you must have liked the part where he, the part that actually talking about where he breaks in and he's
Speaker 1 00:19:24 It's juice me. Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:19:26 Like I wanna get your dad back on the wagon. Let's go. <laugh> yeah, that was good. And then also it didn't occur to me that the whole Fren me is the theme of the season. Wasn't just a name. Wasn't just like a cute teenager name. No, uh, no. Yeah. I like that.
Speaker 3 00:19:45 No one likes that.
Speaker 2 00:19:47 What? I like it, Jay, do you really not like frenemies? It's just the name of the season.
Speaker 3 00:19:53 No, it's fine. It, it tells me what to, to expect.
Speaker 2 00:19:58 We gotta go get Jay. His ha I caught my ha oh yeah. Good point buddy. Uh, yeah.
Speaker 3 00:20:03 Good point.
Speaker 2 00:20:03 It's it's it's definitely better than summer school.
Speaker 1 00:20:07 Yeah, definitely.
Speaker 3 00:20:09 Oh, no. Summer school was kind
Speaker 2 00:20:11 Like, like to get his summer school record. He's like no summer school
Speaker 1 00:20:16 <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:20:17 And then it, yeah, it has the opening title. There's
Speaker 3 00:20:19 Someone in here.
Speaker 2 00:20:21 I have to say the break to the front me's opening. Wasn't that wasn't much to write home about, you know, like it wasn't even at a high point in the song's
Speaker 1 00:20:34 I have a shield
Speaker 2 00:20:37 Let's group up.
Speaker 1 00:20:37 So do we talk about shade? Talking to the gambler?
Speaker 2 00:20:40 Well, first they have that amazing scene and I laughed out loud where the shade is trying to try tea and he makes that
Speaker 1 00:20:48 Easily. Yeah, you are easily amuse,
Speaker 2 00:20:51 Whatever star girl puts me in a good mood.
Speaker 3 00:20:53 <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:20:54 Zach just loves love and star girl. Yeah. I was primed with the song. It was kind of funny, I guess. Yeah. It's also, I
Speaker 3 00:21:05 Appreciate the fact that he attempts to not make them feel bad, but <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:21:12 Yeah. He cares about their feelings. Well, he's also being kind of elitist about his tea, but he is British. So I think it's understandable. Yeah. I was kinda like if it's the tea's so important, why don't you make it yourself? Dick? I'm not do that old money. It's true though. It's a good point.
Speaker 3 00:21:31 Well, it's also trying to find that tea, right? It's kinda hard to find good tea.
Speaker 2 00:21:38 Yeah. Actually, when it's made in that particular British way, you know, mm-hmm <affirmative> yeah. You hear like, oh, you have to do with this amount of lemon and this amount of sugar and no,
Speaker 3 00:21:48 Like mostly it's
Speaker 1 00:21:49 A temperature
Speaker 3 00:21:50 Temperature.
Speaker 2 00:21:52 Leave it in. I have a capsule on the map if, uh, you guys wanna go for, uh,
Speaker 3 00:22:02 Going let's
Speaker 2 00:22:08 So that was great
Speaker 1 00:22:12 UMR for help. And he he's like, no. And we find out that gamblers took all his money when he left the ISA, which is interesting. Yeah. When HES him, his eyes get all black and he's like, huh, let me scratch my eye. Oh my God, green shit.
Speaker 2 00:22:30 I probably wouldn't take money from the guy with shadow demon powers. No,
Speaker 1 00:22:35 I know. Right.
Speaker 3 00:22:35 But if you expect to never come back and you're really good at hiding your digital footprint,
Speaker 2 00:22:42 This is why you don't burn bridges because I, he did come back. When did the gambler get crazy shadow? Demonn powers.
Speaker 1 00:22:52 No shade.
Speaker 2 00:22:53 Oh, shade. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1 00:22:57 So anyways, that sets up the B plot of jaded obsidian.
Speaker 2 00:23:02 Yeah. I, I called it his Sparky shadow. Was it Jade? Is that what they're going for there?
Speaker 1 00:23:08 Something with jaded obsidian. Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:23:11 Hmm. Nice. Okay. So yeah, the next we have, uh, laser lemon is the quote to Cindy. I don't remember.
Speaker 1 00:23:20 Oh, oh, oh. It's. So her best parents are getting way too involved in her being a superhero and they wanna redesign her costume, like the nineties, Dr. Midnight.
Speaker 3 00:23:30 Yeah. And give her the yeah. Color coordination. I'll be annoyed to what's that too. We're gonna get divorced. And now I have super powers and now you wanna be all lovey dovey. Get out of here. No one
Speaker 2 00:23:44 Likes that, but I felt like it was a call back to best, first appearance where she would talk to her parents on video chat during lunch.
Speaker 3 00:23:50 Oh yeah. The time.
Speaker 1 00:23:51 Oh definitely.
Speaker 2 00:23:54 So
Speaker 3 00:23:54 100
Speaker 1 00:23:55 Percentage and also them making her food and she doesn't like, it is how she made them food and they were like, ah, thanks, honey.
Speaker 2 00:24:02 Wow. The show show's so deep.
Speaker 1 00:24:05 Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:24:05 And so much going on
Speaker 1 00:24:06 Reverse UNO card.
Speaker 2 00:24:09 How ironic. Uh, but yeah. Anyway, she should have been the blue margarita rather than lazy lemon guys. There's this, um, game coming out called capes. Are you familiar with it?
Speaker 3 00:24:25 No.
Speaker 2 00:24:25 Yes. Well, it looks like from initial trailers and stuff that it is in fact, the superhero EXCOM I've been waiting for. We just don't know whether it's gonna have, um, character customization
Speaker 3 00:24:37 Shooting. I'm getting shot at
Speaker 2 00:24:38 All. Right. I'm coming. Oh, okay. Uh, so then Sylvester takes the staff and goes flying with it. Uh, and Artis says she wants to join the JSA to prove herself.
Speaker 3 00:24:50 Yeah. I'm getting shot again.
Speaker 2 00:24:53 Okay. So what do we think about Artis joining the JSA? I think it's a great idea.
Speaker 1 00:25:00 Uh, yeah, of course.
Speaker 3 00:25:02 <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:25:04 I mean, Artis isn't even that bad. It's not like she ruined you
Speaker 1 00:25:06 Chaos.
Speaker 2 00:25:07 It's not like she ruined Yolanda's life. Like, uh, Cindy did.
Speaker 1 00:25:12 I know they probably should have had a recap because I could see people being like, I don't remember this. And I was like, you know, nude pictures.
Speaker 2 00:25:20 Yeah. It was pretty Memor
Speaker 1 00:25:22 Ago.
Speaker 2 00:25:22 It was pretty memorable.
Speaker 1 00:25:23 <laugh> true.
Speaker 2 00:25:26 Uh, alright. So yeah. So then we have the part of Starman flying. We already talked about that reminded me of Jack night. Mm-hmm <affirmative>
Speaker 1 00:25:33 They get in trouble when they get home. Courtney proposes sharing the staff. He can have custody when she's at, at school. Can't imagine this is gonna cause any problems down the line.
Speaker 2 00:25:47 Yeah. It seems almost mean to tempt him like that.
Speaker 1 00:25:51 Right.
Speaker 2 00:25:52 But I mean, it's also a little bit on him. I mean, he is a kind of old guy, I guess, not old, but does someone's certainly older than Courtney.
Speaker 3 00:26:02 I'm getting shot. Sniper, ammo, anyone.
Speaker 2 00:26:05 Okay. I also have, Cosmo is sad.
Speaker 3 00:26:09 Why is co why is Cosmo? Cosmo's happy.
Speaker 1 00:26:11 Cosmo's great.
Speaker 3 00:26:13 Cosmo's like the happiest Cosmo is ever been in Cosmo's entire existence.
Speaker 2 00:26:17 <laugh> okay. Oh yeah. And then this is where yeah. Rod sharing agreement. Okay. So now we have the, um, the no limit gang versus Artes. And I really did not like the music in that part.
Speaker 3 00:26:30 Why? No.
Speaker 2 00:26:31 Why? Uh, I don't even remember what it was. Do you guys remember what it was? I just have a note. I don't like this music, that guy on the right.
Speaker 1 00:26:40 I don't. I recognized it at the time, but I don't remember what it was. <laugh> clearly really memorable. <laugh> we
Speaker 3 00:26:49 Were just watching the action.
Speaker 1 00:26:51 Hey, Hey, was a girls just,
Speaker 3 00:26:56 Oh, I don't have any.
Speaker 2 00:26:57 I remember it just being more like rock, rock, rock. We're gonna roll. Ooh, nice time I come. My huh. Ex
Speaker 1 00:27:05 Ex go and give it to you.
Speaker 2 00:27:07 Okay. Um, what are you guys up to? So Tony and star girl. So they, yeah, so we send so much time with the gambler so much. Uh, then we have a conversation where Cindy proposes on going to her house where there's wine and everyone's like, oh, we're like 16. So no, <laugh> it's like, oh, you guys are such smart
Speaker 3 00:27:28 Losers. <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:27:30 I, I, that was funny. So when you watch star, you just have a big smile on your face. Whatever. Not I let's go.
Speaker 3 00:27:45 I had enough of the gambler. I'm glad he's down.
Speaker 2 00:27:49 I'm hoping he's not the season long villain. I will say that. I
Speaker 3 00:27:53 Glad the
Speaker 1 00:27:53 Gambler. He's not
Speaker 2 00:27:59 Long villain and my hopes verified.
Speaker 1 00:28:02 No, we should guess who the villain is. It's some sort of like technological.
Speaker 2 00:28:09 I thought my first thought was calculator there.
Speaker 3 00:28:11 It's Grundy.
Speaker 1 00:28:12 Calcula they already did calculator on arrow. Didn't
Speaker 2 00:28:14 They Grundy? I'm sure they did
Speaker 3 00:28:16 Grundy's back.
Speaker 2 00:28:17 But that was my
Speaker 1 00:28:18 Grundy's Grundy uses security cameras to spy on the JSA.
Speaker 3 00:28:22 Grundy hired, uh, it consultant.
Speaker 1 00:28:25 No, maybe it's per Deon.
Speaker 2 00:28:28 Oh, now we're talking,
Speaker 3 00:28:32 Saw more shooting over on that side. Her
Speaker 2 00:28:34 Deon would be cool, but he's not really a technology technology kind of guy.
Speaker 1 00:28:37 I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 2 00:28:39 Mind us mind us. <laugh>
Speaker 1 00:28:43 I can't, I'm not, I mean, there's like thinker, but he's more of a flash villain.
Speaker 2 00:28:46 Yeah. He was in the flash too right
Speaker 3 00:28:49 Down.
Speaker 1 00:28:51 Uh, me too.
Speaker 2 00:28:53 Where's the enemy up here, dude. Ah, so Cindy says, call me when something exciting happens, which seems like the kind of thing a D and D player might say.
Speaker 1 00:29:03 Yeah. She's not interested in the whole detective aspect of being a superhero.
Speaker 2 00:29:08 Yeah. It's interesting because she's trying to be, why is she even wanna be a she's like member of the JSA when she doesn't wanna do good things.
Speaker 3 00:29:18 Why does Artis wanna be part of the JSA when she doesn't do good things?
Speaker 2 00:29:22 I agree. It's confusing. Okay. First of all, I think don't wanna be, they wanna kick ass, but not wanna be sent to prison. Yeah. I think Cindy does wanna do good things. She helped the old lady across the street. This is not in her nature,
Speaker 3 00:29:33 But she wasn't happy about it.
Speaker 2 00:29:35 Yeah. But she's trying and nobody was watching. That's true. She's kinda like Kylo. <laugh> what? So? Well, maybe not like Kylo ran <laugh> I I did like, did you guys already talking about the part in the lunchroom? Cuz I like that part.
Speaker 3 00:29:55 No we didn't
Speaker 2 00:29:55 Where they're all together in the cafeteria.
Speaker 3 00:29:57 Sandy comes over. Well, does this make it the, this is so this is no longer the loser's table, right?
Speaker 2 00:30:03 <laugh> yeah. Yeah. That was funny. And Rick was like, never was. That was a good line. Yeah. But it's not true. Rick's lying to himself. <laugh> he's like there's many other things to describe us. Just not losers anyway. So for why Artis wants to be a superhero. I think she just sees it as a challenge. They don't. They need to explain why she wants to be a superhero. I think is it cuz she wants to be with like like-minded people maybe, maybe we'll get there.
Speaker 3 00:30:34 It's a prestige. The elite club. Her mom and dad want her to be part of it.
Speaker 2 00:30:41 Yeah. Basically the end here is just the gambler. Very slowly dying. Oh
Speaker 3 00:30:47 You? Oh, we Don know already.
Speaker 1 00:30:49 Yeah. No. What about um,
Speaker 2 00:30:51 What about the partner?
Speaker 3 00:30:53 What about when he comes team?
Speaker 1 00:30:55 What about what pat or Barbara tuck? A's mom.
Speaker 2 00:30:58 Oh, I didn't care about that. No, I didn't care about that either. They
Speaker 1 00:31:01 Were like part,
Speaker 2 00:31:02 You were like, we need something. The problem they always have. We need something for Barbara to do. <laugh>
Speaker 3 00:31:07 Very she's
Speaker 1 00:31:08 Prestige talent.
Speaker 2 00:31:09 She'll take messages for uh, for the JSA.
Speaker 3 00:31:14 She's like running the town now
Speaker 2 00:31:16 I'm not really in charge of who goes into the JSA. Yeah.
Speaker 3 00:31:19 But she's in charge of the town. A very high profile job now.
Speaker 2 00:31:26 Well she can talk to yeah, she can talk to her daughter. No, it was fine. It just was funny. One thing I liked about a larger point I wanted to make about this show is that I like how they treat small town. America positively.
Speaker 3 00:31:40 Yeah. What I didn't like about it.
Speaker 2 00:31:43 Okay.
Speaker 3 00:31:44 Was that it followed like a Asian TRO board. The Asian parents are the ones who like are very hyper aggressive if they don't get there
Speaker 2 00:31:53 And have a lot of, uh, pressure on their kid, right? Yes. Yeah. That's unfortunate. But it's uh, it is only one Asian parent, which
Speaker 3 00:32:02 Makes it even worse. Cause
Speaker 2 00:32:04 Not Asian
Speaker 3 00:32:05 Because then it's a population of one where you only see that you don't get a balance,
Speaker 1 00:32:11 Which makes it worse, worse for the kid.
Speaker 3 00:32:13 No worse for Asian people. Our representation is uh, pretty rough
Speaker 2 00:32:20 Anyway. So I just, just to go back to what I was saying is in the beginning they, uh, right. The, the coming to America montage, it's like very positive about small town America, right? Like they're raising that flag. Everybody's saying hi to each other. Everybody has giant smiles. They're, you know, Jaquis out the paper. And then also the part with the gambler, it is trailer, I think a lot. And a lot of the times when you see a trailer in Hollywood, it's, it's considered like the last possible place you could live before living on the street. And it always looks like shitty, but the gambler's trailer's like really nice.
Speaker 1 00:32:56 Yeah. I noticed that kitchen
Speaker 2 00:33:00 Depends on
Speaker 3 00:33:01 What shows like the last possible choice for someone to live in.
Speaker 2 00:33:04 Yeah. Yeah. I mean it's but it just, but just because it's the last choice for the gambler before he hits rock bottom doesn't mean it has to be shitty, you know? Well, yeah,
Speaker 3 00:33:14 Don't
Speaker 2 00:33:15 It is. I don't they're I don't think they're conveying that, that it's his last place to live before. Rock bottom. I think it's just convey that this is another place for somebody to live and you know,
Speaker 3 00:33:24 Somebody and outcast who, but it's the outcast. It's someone who has nowhere else to go. Cuz he has alienated all his friends and all the contacts. The only reason why it's good is because he stole all the shades money and he uses all the money that he got from that to make his one last option. Good.
Speaker 2 00:33:44 OK. So you think if they're still trying to convey that he's at the end of his rope? Yeah. Why isn't the, why isn't the trailer like, um, like peacemakers trailer,
Speaker 3 00:33:54 Because he has all the shades money.
Speaker 2 00:33:56 Why isn't it like a nice house?
Speaker 3 00:33:58 Because he wouldn't be able because no one in the town would accept him, which is why he has to go do the trailer park.
Speaker 2 00:34:04 Yeah. Also the audience would be confused. They're like, does he have money or not? <laugh> mm-hmm <affirmative> oh, that audience anyway. And we do. I think it just depends on what kind of show you watch. I watch shows that I hate small town America. Yeah. Like, uh, what was that show on? And I watched with, uh, Amy Adams, the cutting or something like that?
Speaker 1 00:34:26 No, no. Um, no, no, no, no. <laugh> bear but shattered. No
Speaker 2 00:34:32 Shattered. Glasss
Speaker 1 00:34:34 Sharp objects. Yeah, that was yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:34:38 Hate small town America. Yeah. Well, I mean it's depicts small town. That's dying. Also. She also gone girl, which was created by Jillian. What's her name as well.
Speaker 1 00:34:47 Mary V town
Speaker 2 00:34:50 That wasn't created by Jillian, whatever.
Speaker 1 00:34:52 Well, I guess it's not really about small town America either.
Speaker 3 00:34:55 Are you?
Speaker 2 00:34:57 Yeah. I dunno. Even like true detective they're like doing like every town around here sucks. The people are hopeless. Yeah. It that's that's your Hollywood leadism for you. Yep. I agree. That's a lead Hollywood. Um, okay. So yeah, I, I like the part also where Joelle was talking about how he had, after he woke up, he was like, yeah, you can get back to my life. And then he realized he had no life to get back to. It's
Speaker 3 00:35:27 True. Without being stormy.
Speaker 2 00:35:29 Yeah. It's sad. I have no life outside of Starman, but I bet that happens. It's again, it's a little bit of a trope, but uh, it's a good thing to explore in on a shell. It's a good emotional conflict. I think didn't Courtney also say something similar where she's like without star girl, I have nothing. Nothing, nothing, nothing. It's
Speaker 3 00:35:50 It seems like it's a common theme for star people.
Speaker 2 00:35:54 <laugh> star and star individuals. Yeah. When the rod wasn't working, I think she had that crisis on entres. Yeah, definitely. Um, okay. So they, so they go flying, which was cool and some good special effects on that at that part. I like, I thought mm-hmm <affirmative> uh, and, and then they come back and Cory's like, you know, they don't like rep Joel, Miguel over the Kohl's, but they're like, you know, they're like, Courtney's like, Hey, I thought that was mine. He's like, oh, I'm so sorry. Which again is kind of like, did that make you guys again be like, why is he being so nice? No, I, to me it was more like, oh my little ring. I'm nice to see it again. <laugh> can I just hold for a few minutes? <laugh> he's like, I'm gonna go get the staff and I <laugh>. And Pat's like, well, I thought you said the staff was cord. He's like, yeah. Yeah. I'm just gonna borrow it. It's gonna
Speaker 3 00:36:51 Borrow well she's in school. So it's his turn anyways.
Speaker 2 00:36:53 Well, they hadn't had that conversation yet. Yeah.
Speaker 3 00:36:55 Yeah. It's
Speaker 2 00:36:57 What do you think of that arrangement? I'm in school. You can use it arrangement.
Speaker 3 00:37:01 We all know it's gonna end up poorly. Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:37:04 Mm-hmm <affirmative> he's gonna be too tempted. It really doesn't make any sense either. Cuz it's like, okay, here comes eclipse. So like Joel quells, just gonna hand the rod over to, to coordinate, right? Yeah. I agree.
Speaker 1 00:37:17 Yeah. From two 30 to three, he can find a eclipse, but at three o'clock she's out of school.
Speaker 2 00:37:23 That's right. And what about on weekends and holidays?
Speaker 1 00:37:25 Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:37:27 Yeah.
Speaker 3 00:37:28 The other thing about that, that scene with pat and all of that was like, it's just showcases, um, like pat has been really missing that aspect of the whole relationship. Right? It's uh,
Speaker 2 00:37:45 Which aspect he just,
Speaker 3 00:37:47 Yeah, he just misses being with Starman and like he can't say no to him. Cause like that's Starman, that's his Starman
Speaker 2 00:37:56 Mm-hmm yeah. Once a sidekick, always a side best.
Speaker 3 00:37:59 Except for now he is back to being a psychic and
Speaker 2 00:38:01 That's a psychic he's his best friend that too. Yeah. Also he hasn't really had to say no to him yet. He hasn't really had to pick
Speaker 3 00:38:10 Between well he should have, but he doesn't
Speaker 2 00:38:13 <laugh> yeah. I, I agree. It is getting a little like my precious vibes from it. Definitely. Definitely. Um, alright. So wait, they talking about share of the staff art stops the robbery, which is kinda funny. Oh yeah. The no limit gang. But do you remember what the music was? We're all trying to remember. I just remember how it made me feel. This is very triumphant, triumphant. That's all I remember about it. Yeah. Yeah. I, and then
Speaker 3 00:38:43 I like I, during that scene, I like the fact that Cindy is like, yeah, that's right. That's how you do it. And everyone's like, oh God, does she just like point that guy's neck with the, but why it's a bat? You don't need the bat. And Cindy's like, yeah, do it.
Speaker 2 00:39:00 <laugh> yeah. Crush. Do it crush their heads. Yeah. It was the same thing where she's really enthusi. She's like, yeah. Woo. Yeah. Art OFS let's go JSA. Woo. It was funny. It was funny when she does that after beating up members of the JSA rather than common criminals, but <laugh>, it's so funny. All right. So yeah. And then we get to the part of the end where the gambler learns that somebody's spying on all these different people, including him, that he's come out and murdered and it looks like Cindy did. It says she did it.
Speaker 1 00:39:30 Didn't do it.
Speaker 2 00:39:31 Do we believe her?
Speaker 1 00:39:32 It doesn't look like she did it. She can't cause that much, uh, property damage on the trailer.
Speaker 2 00:39:37 Cindy, Berman's the meanest girl in school. But is she capable of murder?
Speaker 1 00:39:41 Yes. But not in this case.
Speaker 2 00:39:44 Well, I mean, she's always capable of it.
Speaker 1 00:39:46 She has murdered like multiple people.
Speaker 2 00:39:49 No, but not anybody you didn't deserve it.
Speaker 1 00:39:51 Did her mother deserve it?
Speaker 2 00:39:53 Uh, I don't remember. I think her mother was a of her father. Her mother was like weak.
Speaker 3 00:39:59 Oh, there's someone shooting.
Speaker 2 00:40:01 So, uh, so who do we think it is? Uh, I presume the new villain. Yeah. You think it's per day?
Speaker 3 00:40:10 Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:40:13 The computer expert. Grundy.
Speaker 1 00:40:16 Maybe it's missed your Mala.
Speaker 2 00:40:19 <laugh>
Speaker 3 00:40:19 Maybe when Grundy died, he got super intelligent and now he is smart. Grundy.
Speaker 1 00:40:24 Right? You've been watching she hook Jay
Speaker 3 00:40:27 <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:40:27 Maybe, maybe I, the guy with the cameras is not the villain and it's Mr. Terrific.
Speaker 1 00:40:33 Whoa, whoa. Don't even that don't
Speaker 2 00:40:37 Even
Speaker 1 00:40:38 Wait. They already did him on arrow though.
Speaker 2 00:40:41 Yeah. Whatever it's across. It didn't even do him a little bit. They did him a
Speaker 1 00:40:45 Lot. Oh my God. What if it's Sandman?
Speaker 2 00:40:48 Ooh, but he's not a tech. He's not really a techy guy. Either.
Speaker 1 00:40:53 Maybe they're reimagined Sandy. The golden boy is a tech.
Speaker 2 00:40:58 Yeah. We're just sand. He knows his way of the computer. Yeah,
Speaker 1 00:41:01 He does. He's not. He's like
Speaker 3 00:41:03 1930s. <laugh> what?
Speaker 2 00:41:06 Oh yeah. Actually that's true. Like what is computer
Speaker 1 00:41:10 Jay? We're talking about sand man's sidekick. Sandy. The golden boy.
Speaker 3 00:41:14 Yeah, no, I get that. I'm just wondering about this 30 comment. How dare you. And these people know how to deal with technology.
Speaker 1 00:41:23 Really? Don't
Speaker 2 00:41:24 No, no city. The golden boy got frozen in 1930 when he was like a teenager, maybe 1950. I
Speaker 3 00:41:32 Don't know. I mean, captain America figures it out eventually.
Speaker 1 00:41:34 Does he
Speaker 3 00:41:36 Kind of, he can
Speaker 2 00:41:37 Text. He does not. Yeah. He can text doesn't that's about the limit of his computer ability. He can't like, yeah. Even the gamble. He like this guy was so smart. He, I maneuvered the gambler and the gambler was supposed to be like a high tech attitude. Yeah. I guess we'll uh, find out. Yeah, I can't wait.
Speaker 1 00:41:57 Maybe it's a specter.
Speaker 2 00:42:00 <laugh> again, a really tech technology person as is naming members of the JSI.
Speaker 1 00:42:05 Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:42:07 I so are you guys happy that the gambler's dad? So you don't have to look at his stupid face for the rest of the season? I'm very
Speaker 3 00:42:12 Happy. Not his, just his internal monologues. <laugh> Ugh. He did have a nice handwriting though.
Speaker 2 00:42:20 I have a daughter. Her name is Becky. You say that like three or four times this episode. Yeah, I
Speaker 1 00:42:29 Did. But, but guys seriously, who is a really technologically savvy JS. I remember Ted night.
Speaker 2 00:42:35 <laugh>
Speaker 3 00:42:37 I was gonna say it's the da, the dad
Speaker 1 00:42:41 What? Dad?
Speaker 2 00:42:42 Ted night. Yeah.
Speaker 1 00:42:43 Oh, night's
Speaker 2 00:42:45 Real
Speaker 3 00:42:45 Dad. No. Oh no, not Courtney's real dad.
Speaker 2 00:42:49 She said the dad. Which dad?
Speaker 3 00:42:53 Um, what's her faith.
Speaker 1 00:42:56 Jade's dad.
Speaker 3 00:42:58 No, the other dad, uh,
Speaker 1 00:43:01 Courtney said, no it's
Speaker 3 00:43:02 Good relationship family. Now
Speaker 2 00:43:04 Rick's dad. Everybody has a dad. Let's just keep naming dad.
Speaker 3 00:43:07 What? The good family relationship now
Speaker 1 00:43:10 Our man
Speaker 2 00:43:15 Creole hall.
Speaker 1 00:43:17 <laugh>
Speaker 3 00:43:19 You know what?
Speaker 1 00:43:20 He's really gone off the rails.
Speaker 2 00:43:21 Beth's dad
Speaker 3 00:43:23 <laugh> yes. Thank you.
Speaker 1 00:43:24 That's good thing.
Speaker 2 00:43:27 My goodness. Zach was here. Oh, he he's the guy. He's a doctor.
Speaker 3 00:43:31 <laugh> yeah. So he probably
Speaker 2 00:43:34 How two legendary chess.
Speaker 1 00:43:35 Well, he's a doctor. I thought he worked with Barbara worked.
Speaker 2 00:43:39 Oh, you might be right.
Speaker 3 00:43:40 Wait. No she's the mom is the doctor.
Speaker 1 00:43:43 Mom's the doctor. Yeah, that's right. And
Speaker 3 00:43:44 He works tech or something.
Speaker 2 00:43:46 I thought, yeah, he works with the American dream. Yeah. America and dream.
Speaker 1 00:43:50 Yeah. Which nobody knows what they do anymore. After they blew up the satellite.
Speaker 3 00:43:53 Well, they take care of the town. Now
Speaker 2 00:43:57 Make
Speaker 1 00:43:58 Money doing that. Import
Speaker 2 00:43:59 Exports.
Speaker 3 00:44:00 Uh, you take money from the town
Speaker 1 00:44:03 Taxes, whether the town's
Speaker 2 00:44:05 Government and return it to the town
Speaker 3 00:44:07 Basically. Isn't it basically being a mayor.
Speaker 2 00:44:11 Yeah.
Speaker 1 00:44:11 It's really unclear.
Speaker 2 00:44:12 What was that about? Mayor. Mayor, basically.
Speaker 1 00:44:16 Mayor,
Speaker 3 00:44:17 Mayor,
Speaker 2 00:44:18 Mayor. I
Speaker 3 00:44:20 The mayor.
Speaker 2 00:44:22 <laugh> got some chug. Yep. Uh, yeah. Okay. So cool.
Speaker 3 00:44:31 Over
Speaker 2 00:44:31 Here. Where things go from here. So what do we all take? The first steps to a start girl? I thought it was, I, I know, I keep saying it's delightful, but it was just pretty good. The stuff with the gambler. I was not a fan of, it was not the strong, I don't think it was the strongest start, but I I'm interested to see where it goes
Speaker 1 00:44:50 Potential. It has a great many characters that interact in fun ways.
Speaker 2 00:44:55 They're staying true to the, um, culture of the show. So that's a good side. Yeah. I like you like you guys like the part where Courtney has her notes.
Speaker 1 00:45:06 Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:45:07 I'm gonna notes.
Speaker 1 00:45:10 She's trying to rule for leadership. She's not doing very well.
Speaker 2 00:45:13 Yeah. Yeah. What else is new? But that's okay. I like that part. So bring thrust upon her. I liked it.
Speaker 3 00:45:24 Nice. I feel like she's taking it.
Speaker 2 00:45:26 Ilana. Do wanna tell Zach and Jay about our long term bet
Speaker 1 00:45:30 For house of the dragon?
Speaker 2 00:45:32 Yeah.
Speaker 1 00:45:34 Are they watching it?
Speaker 2 00:45:36 No, they, no dude. Wow. I may watch it later, but I haven't watched it yet. I
Speaker 1 00:45:42 Guess it doesn't really matter. I, I think that me, did
Speaker 2 00:45:44 You feel that Matt Smith isn't it
Speaker 1 00:45:46 Is the Sean Bean of this show
Speaker 2 00:45:49 Uhhuh and I he's
Speaker 1 00:45:50 Gonna die or get written off quickly.
Speaker 2 00:45:53 Do you think they would be too predictable for them to do that though?
Speaker 1 00:45:56 No,
Speaker 2 00:45:57 I don't. I just don't think the show has the balls to do it,
Speaker 1 00:46:01 But like Matt, if you're Matt Smith, you were just in, you know, great movies like Morbius and you don't wanna be on house the dragon for 10 years
Speaker 2 00:46:11 Last night in Soho. Again, I'm not saying that he's I'm saying when he leaves, it's gonna be cuz of Matt Smith. It's not cuz they wrote him off.
Speaker 1 00:46:17 Wait, he was in last night Soho.
Speaker 2 00:46:20 Yeah.
Speaker 1 00:46:21 Wow.
Speaker 2 00:46:21 And I think they aged him up a little cause he looked really old in it. And then you watch other movies. He doesn't look that old.
Speaker 3 00:46:30 I mean, of course not. He's a time Lord. He looks as young as he wants to.
Speaker 2 00:46:38 Good point, Jay? Uh, yeah. I had a prediction for star girl, but then I forgot what it was
Speaker 3 00:46:46 That Jay is gonna get tired of it very quickly. Aw
Speaker 1 00:46:50 Jay,
Speaker 3 00:46:53 You gambler's gone now. So Jay is okay with it now.
Speaker 2 00:46:58 That's good.
Speaker 3 00:46:58 He was very tired of the
Speaker 1 00:47:02 You wasn't in this episode. Cameron.
Speaker 2 00:47:05 Cameron. Cameron.
Speaker 1 00:47:07 Oh
Speaker 2 00:47:07 Yeah. Little crown. I got <laugh>
Speaker 1 00:47:13 A junior.
Speaker 2 00:47:15 Yeah, you're right. I'm sure he'll be around though.
Speaker 1 00:47:18 Yeah. Maybe ex tan. The bad guy.
Speaker 2 00:47:22 Oops. I activat the MPC. Don't be mad at me.
Speaker 1 00:47:26 He's team up with obsidian.
Speaker 2 00:47:28 Ooh. And then they'll have Hawk be Hawk.
Speaker 1 00:47:32 Mm-hmm <affirmative> oh, he'll be Hawk from Titans.
Speaker 3 00:47:40 That's
Speaker 1 00:47:41 How the
Speaker 2 00:47:46 Guy won't guys help me, dude. We got problems, Jay. I gotta low below you. Uh, okay man. What's the questions the day. Let's do this song here. All right. Hang on.
Speaker 3 00:47:58 What I really need is another capsule core.
Speaker 2 00:48:05 All right. Here is a very important question that I know you guys have all thought about a lot and it was inspired. Jay inspired me for it. Inspired me to do it. So now I will ask it
Speaker 3 00:48:19 <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:48:21 Oh shoot. Attack. Ji is in the pirate shop. I'm going after him. Oh yeah. You still there. Okay. Who is your favorite anime character? Excellent question. My
Speaker 1 00:48:33 God. You know I don't watch anime.
Speaker 2 00:48:35 Yes you do.
Speaker 1 00:48:36 Do not.
Speaker 2 00:48:39 Well, but you used to,
Speaker 1 00:48:41 I mean technically I dunno, Pikachu.
Speaker 3 00:48:46 There you go.
Speaker 2 00:48:48 Is he a character? Yeah.
Speaker 1 00:48:50 Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:48:56 I will say VAM hunter D
Speaker 1 00:49:00 Okay. Edy 13 year old,
Speaker 2 00:49:03 Whatever. <laugh> I yours on your very boring answer on.
Speaker 1 00:49:07 Yeah, I know it's cause I don't watch anime. I'm proud of it. Get
Speaker 3 00:49:12 Back.
Speaker 2 00:49:13 Jay, what about you? Chase. Chase. It's gonna be a hard question. I think
Speaker 3 00:49:20 To
Speaker 2 00:49:20 Choose from.
Speaker 3 00:49:22 I would probably say it is Gohan.
Speaker 2 00:49:29 Gohan
Speaker 1 00:49:30 Not Goku.
Speaker 3 00:49:32 No. Goku is a deadbeat dad. Ooh.
Speaker 1 00:49:35 What
Speaker 2 00:49:36 About go tanks?
Speaker 1 00:49:37 Trunks
Speaker 2 00:49:39 Go. Tank. Trunk
Speaker 3 00:49:40 Is okay, but he's a little too much of a sad edge Lord. One of
Speaker 2 00:49:46 <laugh>
Speaker 3 00:49:47 At least upon Gohan. Is that uh, educated young man with Supreme potential and power.
Speaker 2 00:49:57 Did, did you see that new dragon movie?
Speaker 3 00:49:59 I did.
Speaker 2 00:50:00 What'd you think
Speaker 3 00:50:02 It was rough?
Speaker 2 00:50:04 I heard if you, you have to be a fan to, I can basically. Yeah. Now we're moving on. I wanna catch up. I'm coming. I'm coming. Uh, okay. I think I would probably say duo Maxwell. <laugh> yeah.
Speaker 1 00:50:19 Joining Zach. And your GY 13 year old's
Speaker 2 00:50:22 Ed he's friendly.
Speaker 1 00:50:22 He's edgy. He's Matt called death.
Speaker 2 00:50:28 He didn't name it. Oh,
Speaker 1 00:50:30 OK. He's
Speaker 2 00:50:31 He's a nice guy. Shit. Sorry. J he
Speaker 1 00:50:34 Pulled a hammer out of his hair.
Speaker 2 00:50:37 Get him, dude. He's almost dead. But he had a, he had a buddy. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 3 00:50:44 There were two. I went after the one and that one came up behind me.
Speaker 2 00:50:49 At least we got their ha kaing friend. Yeah. At least we ink. Ooh, take that. Oh,
Speaker 3 00:50:55 Karma.
Speaker 2 00:50:56 Oh, here goes the storm. Enjoy those crowns boys. Um, alright. Actually everybody answered. Okay. Question number two. Would you observe an operation?
Speaker 1 00:51:12 Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:51:13 Yeah, I would. I have,
Speaker 1 00:51:15 I like, I probably, you know, I say I would, but like, okay. Do you guys remember when that glass door exploded on Andrew? Yeah.
Speaker 2 00:51:23 Yes.
Speaker 3 00:51:24 So not pleasing when
Speaker 1 00:51:26 We were at the ER and waiting for the doctor to come in, I like tried to look at his like larger wound and it was pretty gross Marley <laugh> yeah.
Speaker 2 00:51:34 And that's just an explan
Speaker 1 00:51:36 And that was like not very deep <laugh>
Speaker 3 00:51:40 Yeah, I take that. Yeah. I dunno. Certain surgeries. I probably would, but like other surgeries, I
Speaker 2 00:51:47 Think it was like a stomach one. Oh, replacement storage. Right.
Speaker 3 00:51:51 See, that's funny because I probably would be okay with that. But anything with the legs? I can't
Speaker 2 00:51:57 Oh, that's weird.
Speaker 3 00:51:58 Legs and hand.
Speaker 2 00:52:00 I feel would be more of an issue.
Speaker 3 00:52:03 No, because for me it's the fact that they're the legs and as a runner, those are the things that I really cherish. So like, it makes me think of how bad things could be for me. Like if I, when I see injuries to like knee legs, like someone rolling their knee, like, or like breaking their shin bone or whatever, I can't wash those, but I could wash someone, get busted up real good in any other way. But like when it comes to like the legs and the knees and like, oh,
Speaker 2 00:52:36 Just the opposite of a fetish. Yeah. You need those what you have for legs.
Speaker 3 00:52:42 I mean, I have a thing for legs cuz they're great. Which is why I don't wanna see them hurt.
Speaker 2 00:52:47 Okay. Yeah. I've watched, uh, videos of wounds, things like that. So I that's not exactly, first of all, why it was for training. Um, okay. Well I think I probably would, I'd give it a try, but I would have pretty low expectations that I'd be able to make it through. Did seeing your children born isn't enough for you? I didn't. I stayed above the equator. I've heard this cross. Yeah. I, I, yeah, I didn't wanna get in. I didn't wanna see anything specific. Have you seen the miracle of life? Yeah, it was gross. <laugh> but again, it's not like blood and guts, right? Yeah. It's just the tube. All right. What's our next question. <laugh> did everybody answer?
Speaker 1 00:53:40 Yes.
Speaker 2 00:53:41 I think we all said we would be amenable to it. <laugh>
Speaker 1 00:53:44 But probably acknowledge that we wouldn't be able to handle it.
Speaker 2 00:53:47 Yeah.
Speaker 1 00:53:49 <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:53:51 Okay. Um, alright. So question number three is, um, I'm using kind of the lower tier ones today, cuz it's we don't have a right. Yeah, well is right. Uh, would you rather, never get bit by a mosquito again? Never have the hiccups again. I never get bit by a mosquito again. That's easy. Hmm. Interesting. I
Speaker 1 00:54:16 Don't know. They're both like, not that bad.
Speaker 2 00:54:18 Yeah. But mosquito. I don't get the hiccups much. I don't get the hiccups that much.
Speaker 1 00:54:22 Neither. I also don't get bit by a mosquito that much.
Speaker 2 00:54:27 Yeah. Especially you city dwell. I never leave your apartments truth.
Speaker 1 00:54:32 I mean, I guess probably the mosquito cuz like you can get malaria for mosquitoes.
Speaker 2 00:54:35 Yeah.
Speaker 1 00:54:37 On like the hiccups.
Speaker 2 00:54:39 I see. Um, I think I actually would choose hiccups because mosquito bites really don't bother me that much. And like the it's for like a second and then I, and then it's over. So, but the hiccups are annoying. <laugh>
Speaker 3 00:54:55 I'd I'd do mosquitoes.
Speaker 2 00:54:57 Yeah. I would also do mosquitoes. That's an easy question. All right. Whatever. They can all be winners just for that. I'm taking your purple. Ah. Oh no. You did take it. I thought I got it first. Oh God it, yeah, actually dude, we, we had some Woody rathers at work today or binary choices. I can send 'em to you for future questions of the day. You don't wanna do 'em right now. Come on. Okay. Uh here's one will Ferrell or Adam staler
Speaker 1 00:55:27 Oh,
Speaker 2 00:55:29 I think will Ferrell. Did you say neither?
Speaker 1 00:55:32 I said Farrell. How is that on a comparison? Honestly,
Speaker 2 00:55:38 I think it's, I think for an older generation that Adam Sandler has a lot, you know, his earlier stuff creates a lot of happy
Speaker 1 00:55:46 Memories. I mean they clearly haven't seen the next door. <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:55:51 That was good. What are about
Speaker 1 00:55:52 Yeah Jay?
Speaker 3 00:55:54 No, I was just laughing at your like Adam adamant statement.
Speaker 1 00:55:59 <laugh> <laugh>
Speaker 2 00:56:00 You see this one thing? It'll turn your whole opinion of Wolf Farrell.
Speaker 1 00:56:03 Yeah. Let's see if Adam Sandler can do that and no, I haven't seen on UNC Jims.
Speaker 2 00:56:08 What about crazy? Stupid love or punch truck. Love punch
Speaker 3 00:56:11 Truck. Love. Ugh.
Speaker 1 00:56:12 Don't ITT.
Speaker 2 00:56:15 Yeah man. Just one. Guy's killing our whole team. Oh no. It's two guys. Okay. Alright. So that's one is cheesecake a pie, a cake. It's definitely a cake. It has a Cru though.
Speaker 3 00:56:28 Yeah. So,
Speaker 2 00:56:29 So first I guess that's true. Don't that's the
Speaker 1 00:56:34 I don't that's how, yeah. I, pumpkin pie is like almost the same cheeses pie by
Speaker 2 00:56:43 Uh
Speaker 3 00:56:44 Oh, that's what, but that's what he,
Speaker 2 00:56:45 How it's made. It's different.
Speaker 3 00:56:47 Yeah. But that's what he's saying. It's a pie, right?
Speaker 1 00:56:50 Right. So why is cheesecake a cake?
Speaker 2 00:56:53 Because it's chess cake in the name. <laugh> yeah. That's pretty the, of that.
Speaker 1 00:56:59 You know what? I think it is a pie.
Speaker 3 00:57:01 Yeah. Might have Mo have to change my mind. Tea,
Speaker 1 00:57:05 Camp pie, pumpkin pie and cheesecake are all super similar in that regard. Filling crust.
Speaker 2 00:57:12 Yeah. Guys, do
Speaker 3 00:57:13 You wanna quit?
Speaker 1 00:57:13 Two outta three are pies. All
Speaker 2 00:57:15 Right. Yeah. Sorry. Good points. Lana. Yeah.
Speaker 3 00:57:18 Pie. Accept that answer. I will switch sides and go to the pie.
Speaker 2 00:57:24 <laugh> okay. Next is what scarier side. Okay. What is scarier? Scuba diving or uh, skydiving. Skydiving. Skydiving.
Speaker 1 00:57:33 Yeah. Skydiving
Speaker 2 00:57:34 For me. I mean that's of course it's subjective.
Speaker 1 00:57:37 SBA diving is like, if you get scared, you could just tap out. Skydiving is like, you're just, you're just in it. You can't bang it
Speaker 2 00:57:43 Also. Yeah. Also scuba diving. It's like you just go a little bit underwater and you're technically scuba diving, right?
Speaker 1 00:57:48 <laugh> yeah. You did it. You
Speaker 2 00:57:49 Don't have to go, go to the bottom of the ocean.
Speaker 3 00:57:51 <laugh> yeah, but I would rather SPLA and die than drown. Think
Speaker 1 00:57:59 At the bends.
Speaker 2 00:57:59 Well, that's a different question though. I would,
Speaker 3 00:58:02 Scuba diving is scary than skydiving,
Speaker 2 00:58:06 But these safe activities,
Speaker 1 00:58:08 But like Jay, you wouldn't know your death was coming like and skydiving. Like you just know, whereas in, if you're drowning, maybe you don't realize it.
Speaker 2 00:58:17 Realize all this water is rushing into my mouth.
Speaker 3 00:58:20 I, I can't breathe
Speaker 1 00:58:22 Slowly is like, you might just be like, oh no, I'm tired. I don't
Speaker 2 00:58:26 Know. In both cases you would, um, see it coming. <laugh> definitely 68. It might be a little bit more peaceful, I guess.
Speaker 3 00:58:35 Oh, hold your breath.
Speaker 2 00:58:37 <laugh> what about cave diving or skydiving? That's where you, yeah. That's where you scuba diving in a cave. So it's you can get lost and then you drown,
Speaker 3 00:58:50 Um, see any risk of drowning is always going to be worse for me.
Speaker 2 00:58:55 Okay. Yeah. It depends on your personal
Speaker 3 00:58:57 Flat is at least I'm having a fun adrenaline rush the entire time until I go splat. If I'm drowning, I'm suffering for 2, 2, 3 minutes of painful suffering. Yeah, no
Speaker 2 00:59:14 Thing. I suppose that's a good point. You'd also hear there's freak stories about like an airline stewardist who survived, falling out of an airplane.
Speaker 3 00:59:21 Yeah. You just run <laugh> you run really fast.
Speaker 2 00:59:24 It's a separate question about assuming you're gonna die, which way you're going to die versus doing a, a, you know, activity that is presumably a little risky, but mostly safe.
Speaker 3 00:59:35 But that's why it's scarier, right? It's because no, I
Speaker 2 00:59:38 Just up high. Scary.
Speaker 3 00:59:41 See, that's totally different. Cuz then you're just asking, are you afraid of Heights or are you afraid of depth?
Speaker 2 00:59:47 <laugh> deaf
Speaker 3 00:59:49 Depth.
Speaker 2 00:59:49 You feel a Mr. Crabs. Yeah.
Speaker 3 00:59:53 Right. So are you afraid of being underwater or are you afraid of Heights?
Speaker 2 00:59:57 That's Heights.
Speaker 3 00:59:59 That's a different
Speaker 2 01:00:00 Story Heights given the two alternatives <laugh> uh, okay. So then also in a similar vein, which, which, which is scarce or which would you rather be bit by a snake or bit by a shark? Oh my God. Seriously. I mean all things being equal. It's the it's not poisonous. Well I guess maybe I phrased it wrong. It's like, which is scarier snake bites or shark bites.
Speaker 1 01:00:27 Shark bites.
Speaker 2 01:00:30 I dunno. I mean a shark that seems pretty easy that a, a shark bite is obviously way worse.
Speaker 1 01:00:35 I think a shark bites, what it worse because like the situation where you'd be in to get a shark bite is like, you're gonna get more shark bites.
Speaker 3 01:00:44 You're in the water and you can drown
Speaker 1 01:00:46 <laugh> that too.
Speaker 2 01:00:49 I think snake. Exactly. Because you just stay outta the water.
Speaker 1 01:00:56 I mean, yeah.
Speaker 2 01:00:57 Snakes, you can just run away from them
Speaker 1 01:00:59 Snakes. You can just knock, go outside. <laugh>
Speaker 2 01:01:01 Yeah. Is like the mosquito bite question, but
Speaker 3 01:01:04 I'm more
Speaker 2 01:01:04 And I'll back into not going outside,
Speaker 1 01:01:08 But burden would approve.
Speaker 2 01:01:10 Ugh,
