[00:00:00] Before we start the show, we wanted to dedicate this episode to Matthew Joseph Flores, the

[00:00:04] younger brother of our friend and frequent collaborator, Chef Daniel Flores.

[00:00:08] Matthew's love for spawn, DC, and all things nerdy will be cherished, except his love for

[00:00:13] the Yankees.

[00:00:14] Prayers grow out to Chef Daniel and his family.

[00:00:16] We all love you.

[00:00:18] And Matthew, may you rest in the sky with Kings until the end of eternity.

[00:00:57] Jamez remembered he hates fail for this.

[00:01:04] Distance nerding.

[00:01:07] EEEEEEEE!

[00:01:08] Well good morning, ladies and gentlemen.

[00:01:14] Good morning Alderaan.

[00:01:16] Good morning Alderaan.

[00:01:18] Good morning Alderaan.

[00:01:21] Yeah, that's kind of what I was going for.

[00:01:25] Ladies and gentlemen, it is Taco Tuesday.

[00:01:30] Apparently there's a deal at Jim Boyz for those of you who are on the West Coast.

[00:01:34] And you know what that means?

[00:01:36] You are now watching and experiencing and just taking in all of the amazingness that

[00:01:42] is distance nerding.

[00:01:45] We're here to the Comic Con Radio Podcast family.

[00:01:48] Ah, biscuits it's Jamez 5000.

[00:01:51] He's our young Falcor.

[00:01:54] It's young Phil and we are here to nerd together.

[00:01:59] I still got it.

[00:02:00] Nailed it.

[00:02:01] For the 168th time?

[00:02:02] Good.

[00:02:03] Yeah, we are here man.

[00:02:05] We're getting it.

[00:02:06] We're talking about anything.

[00:02:07] Pop culture news, movies, food, music, wrestling, comics, Comic-Cons, trailers.

[00:02:12] Okay, maybe not trailers today.

[00:02:15] I think you've had enough trailers.

[00:02:16] Whatever you're nerding on, we want to talk about it.

[00:02:18] Guys, you got to follow us on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Twitch, Threads, YouTube, Discord.

[00:02:23] All at the places at distance nerding.

[00:02:26] And of course, if you want to send us an email, you can email us at your favorite place, DIST.

[00:02:31] This just in.

[00:02:32] Call your local Jim Boyz for the deals.

[00:02:34] We have ground beef tacos two for $22.

[00:02:38] What? That doesn't make any sense.

[00:02:40] Say Wong, you got to work on your grammar.

[00:02:42] Ground beef tacos.

[00:02:43] $2.22 on a Tuesday.

[00:02:46] I think that makes more sense.

[00:02:47] And nerding at aol.com.

[00:02:49] And of course, we will read that on air.

[00:02:52] James, how's your weekend been man?

[00:02:55] How's everything been?

[00:02:56] It's been great.

[00:02:56] Egg hunts.

[00:02:57] It's great.

[00:02:57] Yeah.

[00:02:58] Egg hunts.

[00:02:58] We're just getting kids over it.

[00:02:59] It's great.

[00:02:59] Egg hunts by my house and not coming by.

[00:03:02] Yes.

[00:03:02] Just mashing over kids.

[00:03:04] They don't, I deserve the candy.

[00:03:06] Not them.

[00:03:06] I mean, you're not wrong.

[00:03:07] You definitely deserve the candy over the kids.

[00:03:09] Exactly.

[00:03:10] Yeah.

[00:03:11] But yes, ladies and gentlemen, let's bring this on.

[00:03:16] For those not watching just a random finger lick

[00:03:21] and then an arm lick.

[00:03:23] Coffee.

[00:03:23] Jesus, are you doing tequila shots right now?

[00:03:26] What are you doing?

[00:03:28] You're looking everything.

[00:03:30] I had to stir my coffee with my finger.

[00:03:32] No, you don't.

[00:03:34] I don't have spoons right now.

[00:03:35] My spoons are in the wash.

[00:03:37] Wow.

[00:03:38] Wow.

[00:03:39] We use chopsticks, bro.

[00:03:40] Why don't you get with the time?

[00:03:41] I don't even have chopsticks right now.

[00:03:42] Everything is just dirty.

[00:03:43] I'm washing everything.

[00:03:44] Be a little bit more woke.

[00:03:46] Use the chopsticks.

[00:03:48] Or just swirl it.

[00:03:49] I mean, I guess I could have done that.

[00:03:50] But when I pulled my finger out,

[00:03:51] I spilled it on my arm and I.

[00:03:56] No COVID precautions here at all.

[00:03:59] I'm just the nastiest.

[00:04:00] All right.

[00:04:02] Ladies and gentlemen, with all that nastiness in place,

[00:04:05] you have now stumbled onto the best kept secret

[00:04:08] on the internet.

[00:04:09] You are now watching the download.

[00:04:11] Doot doot.

[00:04:12] And once again, the graphics department has upped their game.

[00:04:30] Upped it.

[00:04:31] I like it.

[00:04:31] I need a new t-shirt with that logo on it.

[00:04:34] I'm going to make it happen.

[00:04:36] You should because I mean, that's a bad ass logo.

[00:04:39] I love the way this whole thing turned out.

[00:04:42] I mean, I'd like to take more credit for it.

[00:04:44] But I guess it's pretty good still.

[00:04:45] Absolutely.

[00:04:47] So ladies and gentlemen, let's get right into everything.

[00:04:49] Let's get into the show this week on deck.

[00:04:52] We've got the geek and update.

[00:04:54] Get your taters ready, Idaho.

[00:04:56] We're coming.

[00:04:57] Oh, we're coming.

[00:04:58] And we're going to take over all of Boise.

[00:05:00] Us and Ming Chen, it's going to happen.

[00:05:04] I'm a little scared for that.

[00:05:06] I'm a little scared.

[00:05:08] What I'm excited for on this is at minimum,

[00:05:11] these are going to be stories that we can tell for the rest

[00:05:14] of our lives, at least me and Frank and Eugene Ken,

[00:05:19] that we can tell for the rest of our lives.

[00:05:21] And it's like, you remember that time I got arrested

[00:05:23] with Ming Chen?

[00:05:27] I don't see this ending well.

[00:05:28] No, it's going to be amazing.

[00:05:30] I'm sure he's not going to do anything crazy because I mean,

[00:05:33] the dude just got put on a board for the New Jersey Film

[00:05:37] Society.

[00:05:37] I'm worried about you guys.

[00:05:41] He's not worried about, oh, I'm going to Idaho to hang out

[00:05:45] with a podcast.

[00:05:46] You on the other hand are like, I'm

[00:05:48] going to go to Idaho and hang out with a celebrity

[00:05:50] and party.

[00:05:51] Hey, right?

[00:05:53] But guys, starting rumors.

[00:05:56] More bonding rumors.

[00:05:59] Yeah, I know.

[00:05:59] Bond silver, quick bond.

[00:06:02] Yeah.

[00:06:02] No, just starting off with bond rumors again.

[00:06:05] And then of course, the download.

[00:06:07] Get your lightsaber chopsticks ready.

[00:06:09] You're going to need them.

[00:06:10] And you're going to need them for your coffee.

[00:06:12] Yeah, I know, right?

[00:06:13] I should.

[00:06:15] So let's get into this, guys.

[00:06:17] Let's talk about the geek end update.

[00:06:18] [?].

[00:06:28] All right.

[00:06:29] Screw the sponsors.

[00:06:30] Distance Nerding.

[00:06:31] I did it again.

[00:06:32] It is on Comic Con Radio.

[00:06:50] I'm going to copy and paste it in the chat,

[00:06:53] see how easy that is should do, and go check it out.

[00:06:57] Still giving him shit.

[00:06:58] And he's not even on the show today.

[00:07:01] It's the best time.

[00:07:03] No comebacks.

[00:07:04] Perfect.

[00:07:04] There's no way for him to argue.

[00:07:07] Exactly.

[00:07:08] All right, we mentioned it before.

[00:07:10] GemState Comic Con, April 6th and 7th at Expo Idaho in Boise.

[00:07:15] Boise.

[00:07:16] Boise.

[00:07:17] If you're of the French descent.

[00:07:19] It's going to be amazing.

[00:07:21] We talked about who's going to be there.

[00:07:22] Ming Chen is going to be there.

[00:07:23] We keep hearing that Ming Chen wants to hang out and party

[00:07:27] and have a good time.

[00:07:28] We're like, OK, bro.

[00:07:29] I've been messaging with him.

[00:07:30] He's ready, bro.

[00:07:31] Let's do this.

[00:07:32] I guess it's going to happen.

[00:07:33] But Sean Aston is going to be there from Goonies

[00:07:36] and Lord of the Rings and Strange Things.

[00:07:38] And he's going to eat all the tatas, all the taters,

[00:07:41] precious all the tatas.

[00:07:43] More so than that.

[00:07:44] He's going to have like second Z's and third Z's and fourth Z's

[00:07:47] and 11 Z's.

[00:07:48] Second.

[00:07:49] He's a hobbit.

[00:07:49] Remember that.

[00:07:50] He's a hobbit.

[00:07:50] So I mean, 11 Z's.

[00:07:51] Hey, by the way, he's a really tall hobbit.

[00:07:54] I know.

[00:07:55] No, really tall.

[00:07:56] He's like the Shaquille O'Neal on poppins.

[00:07:59] And if you get, he gets sick.

[00:08:00] We got a doctor in place.

[00:08:01] We got Colin Baker, the sixth doctor who is going

[00:08:04] to be there.

[00:08:05] That's going to be awesome.

[00:08:06] That's right.

[00:08:06] The kids are excited for that one.

[00:08:09] Exactly.

[00:08:10] Gigi Edgeley will be there from Farscape?

[00:08:13] That's cool.

[00:08:13] I just went and rewatched Farscape.

[00:08:16] And he's like, oh yeah, man.

[00:08:17] I forgot how badass of a character she was.

[00:08:19] Yeah, that's cool.

[00:08:20] Clem So from Skyfall, Guardians of the Galaxy,

[00:08:24] Doctor Strange Solo, Jurassic Park, Fantastic Beasts,

[00:08:26] Black Widow.

[00:08:27] Basically every movie you love.

[00:08:29] Yeah, exactly.

[00:08:29] I can't wait to hear some of his behind the scenes stories.

[00:08:32] Like when we talked to David Chung,

[00:08:34] I think at Gemstate, he was like, oh yeah, by the way.

[00:08:38] And this is what?

[00:08:39] Last year, he's like, by the way, I was an Aquaman.

[00:08:41] And Aquaman hadn't come out yet.

[00:08:42] Oh, by the way, I was a Batgirl.

[00:08:43] Batgirl's never going to come out.

[00:08:45] And he got to tell us a couple of stories from that.

[00:08:47] So you've got to go to Gemstate Comic Comment Checkout.

[00:08:50] People like Clem So and hear the Hollywood stories

[00:08:54] that he has.

[00:08:54] And then speaking of Hollywood stories,

[00:08:58] the 2018 Predator, Brian A. Prince will be there.

[00:09:01] Great guy.

[00:09:02] He's a friend of the show, Brian A. Prince.

[00:09:04] I love that guy, man.

[00:09:05] He's got some fun stories from the set.

[00:09:07] Some interesting stories.

[00:09:08] He's just a fun guy in general.

[00:09:10] Yeah, and especially, I mean, you hold the record

[00:09:12] for world's tallest parkour athlete.

[00:09:16] Like that's badass.

[00:09:17] Yeah, totally cool.

[00:09:19] Totally cool.

[00:09:20] Who else we got?

[00:09:21] Spencer Wilding, man.

[00:09:23] The guy who played Vader in, I will say the name.

[00:09:26] Rogue One.

[00:09:27] That's the Vader you want to be.

[00:09:29] That's the Vader because he showed how badass Vader can be.

[00:09:33] You don't want to be the Vader at the end of Jedi

[00:09:37] that goes, let me see you with my own eyes.

[00:09:41] That guy's crap.

[00:09:42] Give me the Vader that killed everybody in the hallway.

[00:09:47] No.

[00:09:51] This is the daredevil of Star Wars.

[00:09:54] You know what I'm saying?

[00:09:55] Yeah.

[00:09:55] He was whack and fool as left and right.

[00:09:57] That's what I'm talking about.

[00:09:58] So Spencer Wilding, and he was also in Game of Thrones.

[00:10:00] Yeah.

[00:10:01] And then of course, bringing up one of James' biggest

[00:10:06] like character idols that he's not even gonna be able

[00:10:09] to talk to, Tony Oliver from Robotech, Rick Hunter himself.

[00:10:13] That is so dope.

[00:10:15] You know, I was going through some of my old stuff

[00:10:18] that I have, my old toys and stuff,

[00:10:20] and I found some old Robotech stuff.

[00:10:21] I might give it to you to have him sign it like

[00:10:23] in package.

[00:10:24] Oh, fuck yeah.

[00:10:25] I'm definitely gonna make sure you bring that over, man,

[00:10:28] because I want to make sure that given the chance,

[00:10:31] I'm sure he'd be down to do it,

[00:10:33] but like have Tony sign that, you know?

[00:10:35] Remind me, because I also have this Goonies like movie

[00:10:39] adaption and you know, Sean Aston is on the cover.

[00:10:42] He's in it nonstop in the book,

[00:10:45] but it's from like 1985.

[00:10:48] So it'd be cool to have him sign that, you know?

[00:10:50] Yeah.

[00:10:51] I'll give that to you too.

[00:10:52] To make you look cool while I'm sitting at home crying.

[00:10:54] Exactly.

[00:10:55] And again, that's given I get a chance,

[00:10:57] because from what I understand,

[00:10:58] Sean is supposed to be swamped the entire weekend.

[00:11:02] And usually we try to get those signatures

[00:11:04] when they have like a moment, but it's like,

[00:11:06] I don't know, Sean's gonna have a moment, man.

[00:11:09] Well, you'll be on stage with him.

[00:11:10] We'll prop it up.

[00:11:11] He'll be like, well, look at that throwback.

[00:11:13] That'll be fun.

[00:11:13] Exactly. Yeah.

[00:11:14] That's a good idea actually.

[00:11:15] All right.

[00:11:16] A friend of the, speaking of friend of the show,

[00:11:17] Marie Westbrook.

[00:11:19] Oh, she's so awesome.

[00:11:20] Right.

[00:11:22] She was in Jujutsu Kaizen,

[00:11:23] the cyberpunk edge runner,

[00:11:24] Star Wars, the old Republic.

[00:11:26] Speaking of Jujutsu Kaizen,

[00:11:28] that is being featured on Hulu right now.

[00:11:30] So if you guys haven't gotten a chance to watch it,

[00:11:33] like you didn't watch it while I was in its run,

[00:11:35] it is currently on Hulu.

[00:11:36] So if you want to go check that out.

[00:11:38] Yeah, that's awesome.

[00:11:39] Who does she play Haname?

[00:11:41] Haname?

[00:11:42] Yeah, she's basically like a tree demon.

[00:11:45] With branches going out of her eyes.

[00:11:48] Yeah.

[00:11:49] She's like a, she's like a gent,

[00:11:50] she's supposed to be a genderless tree demon.

[00:11:52] Okay, sounds good.

[00:11:54] Yeah.

[00:11:56] At least they didn't typecast her anything.

[00:11:58] Like she's short, she's beautiful,

[00:12:00] but like she's this demon monster

[00:12:03] with branches growing out of her eyes.

[00:12:04] Okay.

[00:12:05] If you look at a lot of the character she plays

[00:12:07] and I think to her testament,

[00:12:09] she enjoys playing these out of the box characters

[00:12:12] because it's very opposite of type in who she is.

[00:12:17] You know, like Haname and Jujutsu Kaizen

[00:12:20] and then of course, if you look at the way

[00:12:23] the Doryo is built in Cyberpunk Edge Runners,

[00:12:25] like the Doryo's clearly female,

[00:12:27] but she is super just big.

[00:12:30] The Ray or Ripley of...

[00:12:31] She's like demons?

[00:12:32] If the Doryo was,

[00:12:36] or if Doryo was a person in real life,

[00:12:39] she would dwarf over Rhea Ripley

[00:12:41] and Rhea Ripley is big.

[00:12:43] Yes.

[00:12:44] All right.

[00:12:45] By the way, I loved your interview

[00:12:47] or the interview with her

[00:12:48] where she was like talking about Star Wars

[00:12:50] and like, I got Star Wars, Old Republic.

[00:12:53] It was like my second gig

[00:12:54] and I didn't know what I was doing.

[00:12:56] And then like her, one of her latest gigs from last year

[00:13:00] was working on a Star Wars project for Ahsoka,

[00:13:03] you know, and doing the commercials for that.

[00:13:04] I'm like, how fun of a bookend story is that

[00:13:07] with your Star Wars journey?

[00:13:09] Like how much have you learned?

[00:13:10] She's like, oh my gosh, it was so long ago.

[00:13:12] Yeah.

[00:13:13] And then, you know, she's worked for WWE

[00:13:15] in multiple cases too.

[00:13:16] So I mean, like, you know, big deal for us

[00:13:18] being big wrestling fans.

[00:13:19] Yeah, money in the bank.

[00:13:21] That's right. She did the cold intro.

[00:13:22] Yeah, she said she's done a few different projects

[00:13:24] with WWE where she's done voiceover for them.

[00:13:26] So that's pretty cool.

[00:13:27] So jealous.

[00:13:28] So jealous.

[00:13:29] OK, so there's going to be a few more celebrities there too.

[00:18:38] All right. That's right.

[00:18:39] So let's get into the speaking of the news.

[00:18:41] Right? Let's get into a little bit of starting rumors.

[00:18:45] I don't know where to get in there.

[00:18:47] No, but I'm not mad tonight.

[00:18:51] It goes through.

[00:18:52] Oh, let's stop some rumors.

[00:18:54] I was awesome room with you.

[00:18:58] Where you I want to stop some rumors with you.

[00:19:05] All right, we're shaking up, not stirring the James Bond rumors.

[00:19:11] According to reports from the son,

[00:19:13] the iconic film role of James Bond,

[00:19:16] M.I. Six's most famous spy has been offered to 33 year old

[00:19:20] British actor, Aaron Taylor Johnson.

[00:19:23] The dude has been getting everything lately.

[00:19:26] He's got a craven for some bond action.

[00:19:29] You know what I mean? Get it.

[00:19:31] There, I see. There you go.

[00:19:33] Taylor Johnson has yet to formally accept the role.

[00:19:36] The tabloid added that.

[00:19:38] But if he does, he would be the eighth actor to take on the role

[00:19:41] since the film series began in 1962.

[00:19:44] Taylor Johnson previously started or starred in the 2010

[00:19:48] black comedy superhero film Kickass and the 2015 Marvel movie

[00:19:54] Avengers Age of Ultron.

[00:19:56] And then he's going to also be craving the hunter.

[00:19:59] Yeah, what he gets bitten by a radioactive line.

[00:20:02] Is that how it goes?

[00:20:02] Yeah, that's that's that's the story.

[00:20:04] He gets bitten by a radioactive line.

[00:20:07] He's replacing Daniel Craig, who's played the role five

[00:20:10] times since 2006 and talk goes on the table.

[00:20:15] Will Aaron Taylor Johnson Kickass as the new James Bond.

[00:20:19] I always forget that he's British.

[00:20:21] Yeah, right?

[00:20:22] Because because he plays so many American roles

[00:20:25] that I forget that he's that he's a British dude.

[00:20:29] And I mean, he's a good enough actor.

[00:20:31] If there's anything that I think to now when I think of

[00:20:35] Aaron Taylor Johnson, a lot of people think of Kickass

[00:20:37] and other roles, I think of Bullet Train.

[00:20:39] Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[00:20:40] His character in Bullet Train was bad ass.

[00:20:42] I love it.

[00:20:43] And that's kind of that character now tells me

[00:20:46] that he can play Bond.

[00:20:47] That movie doesn't get enough credit.

[00:20:49] I don't get it. It doesn't at all, man.

[00:20:50] That movie was way too good.

[00:20:51] It was a weird marketing pushing.

[00:20:53] It's just like, oh, here's, you know, a new movie.

[00:20:55] He's got Brad Pitt and then that's all we're going to talk about.

[00:20:57] Yeah.

[00:20:58] Yeah, Aaron Taylor Johnson's character in that.

[00:20:59] I mean, he was more cockney, but I mean, still it was

[00:21:02] a really good take on like just a weird assassin role.

[00:21:06] And I loved it because there was like comedy to it.

[00:21:09] But then like it there was a little bit of comedy to it.

[00:21:13] A lot of action to it.

[00:21:14] A lot of kind of nihilism in his character.

[00:21:17] And I just really liked the way that that character to be fair.

[00:21:19] To be fair, you can be a little bit of a cockney sometimes.

[00:21:23] I don't always a cockney.

[00:21:24] You know that.

[00:21:28] Frey says, bullet train is when I started crushing.

[00:21:30] Which yeah, I mean, again, I think he I think he's a good enough actor

[00:21:34] that he can he can pull off Bond.

[00:21:37] Especially if he's just relaxed and he has to be British.

[00:21:39] Yeah, I totally agree.

[00:21:41] Taka's on the table.

[00:21:42] I think he's going to be the next Bond.

[00:21:44] He's he's can be an action star.

[00:21:47] He can play serious.

[00:21:48] He's he's hunky looking.

[00:21:49] You know, he's young enough where just like Daniel Craig since 2006

[00:21:55] was playing Bond.

[00:21:56] I think they're looking at this and be like, OK, we need an actor

[00:21:58] for the next at least 10 years, maybe 15 or more.

[00:22:01] Aaron Taylor Johnson is a great pick.

[00:22:03] Right. I agree. I 100 percent agree.

[00:22:06] But I was going to say moving on on here in.

[00:22:10] I don't know. And who should be the master of martial arts news?

[00:22:16] In fisting news.

[00:22:18] In fisting news. Yes, that's a good one.

[00:22:20] In fisting news now one such long awaited.

[00:22:24] What the hell, James?

[00:22:26] What did you write here?

[00:22:27] Hey, man. How was gaming?

[00:22:30] Did you enjoy gaming?

[00:22:31] So it's very busy, sir.

[00:22:33] I could see that.

[00:22:34] So I guess there is a rumor out there right now

[00:22:38] that supposedly Shang Chi Chu is supposed to be a time travel film

[00:22:41] and Iron Fist is going to be involved in all this.

[00:22:44] Right.

[00:22:45] We've been waiting a little while to get some updates on what Shang

[00:22:48] Chi is going to be and Cosmic underscore Marvel on X

[00:22:53] summarized that the movie itself is going to be featuring

[00:22:57] time travel, Iron Fist, who also appear in Eyes of Wakanda.

[00:23:01] So Shang Chi supposedly is going to be filming in early 2025.

[00:23:06] I don't know. Is this shoe horning?

[00:23:08] No, that's kind of something that I kind of wanted out of Shang Chi, though.

[00:23:12] I was like, I felt like Shang Chi as a character was redeeming the martial arts

[00:23:17] within the MCU.

[00:23:18] And I kind of wanted like if you were going to reintroduce Iron Fist,

[00:23:22] it needs to be through Shang Chi and it's it's you can make Iron Fist

[00:23:29] in Asian do the way everybody wants or you can do tell the story

[00:23:33] and have him be a white dude.

[00:23:34] But at the same time, like there are aspects of the show that I enjoyed

[00:23:38] like, you know, the as far as the story writing goes

[00:23:43] for Iron Fist, having him be a spoiled rich white kid

[00:23:47] that has to be humbled and learn humility as a martial artist.

[00:23:53] I like that aspect of the story, right?

[00:23:55] And I feel like the privilege of being a spoiled rich white kid

[00:24:00] is what kind of gives the advantage of the story and makes it a little more compelling.

[00:24:04] Now, you can do that with if kind of Batman ask.

[00:24:08] Right. It is it is right.

[00:24:10] I mean, Batman asked, given that Batman has always been humble,

[00:24:14] like Bruce has always been humble for being a rich dude, right?

[00:24:17] But you know, the whole thing is taking a spoiled kid like Danny Rand

[00:24:21] and humbling him by putting him in a situation where he has to fend for himself

[00:24:26] and then he picks up in a monastery and learns to be a martial artist

[00:24:30] and then becomes the immortal Iron Fist.

[00:24:33] And it's like if you're going to do Shang Chi, you have to do him.

[00:24:37] I'm sorry, not Shang Chi.

[00:24:38] Shang Chi was done right.

[00:24:39] If you're going to do Iron Fist and Danny Rand,

[00:24:41] you have to redo everything in a way where it's done right

[00:24:45] because the martial arts were the weakest part of Iron Fist,

[00:24:48] which should never be the problem.

[00:24:49] So going to tacos on the table, tacos on the table.

[00:24:52] Will Shang Chi to put a ring on it?

[00:24:54] Do you think?

[00:24:55] Do you think Iron Fist jokes?

[00:24:58] Yeah. Do you think Iron Fist and time travel are going to be things

[00:25:02] that are involved and also if time travel is involved,

[00:25:05] is that going to wreck on Iron Fist?

[00:25:07] You know, at first I was like, no, why would they bring time travel into this?

[00:25:11] But you know, the way they handled Miss Marvel and her time travel with with her.

[00:25:20] What would they call them? Bracelets or bangles?

[00:25:22] Yeah, yeah. I don't remember what they were called.

[00:25:25] The way they handle that and they seem to connect them somehow

[00:25:29] to something, you know, time traveling.

[00:25:32] I think they can do that with Shang Chi as well.

[00:25:35] Now, they've also kind of done with the 10 rings too.

[00:25:37] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[00:25:39] So I'm on board.

[00:25:40] Tacos on the table. Let's do it.

[00:25:41] I I like Shang Chi.

[00:25:43] That's one of my better favorite Marvel movies,

[00:25:47] especially recent Marvel movies.

[00:25:48] Yeah, let's let's do it.

[00:25:50] Let's see what happens.

[00:25:50] Yeah, absolutely.

[00:25:51] Again, I love the idea of if you're going to do Iron Fist again,

[00:25:56] Shang Chi is the perfect movie to bring it in with.

[00:25:58] And I think Shang Chi is the perfect character to ground Iron Fist

[00:26:02] and put also put Iron Fist in his place.

[00:26:05] If it's the same type of Danny Rand.

[00:26:07] Well, even then, I think Shang Chi in general as a character

[00:26:11] would put Danny Rand in this place.

[00:26:13] Got it. Got it. OK, let's keep it going.

[00:26:15] Ready? You know what's stronger than spider webs?

[00:26:19] Family, family.

[00:26:21] Justin Lin may be getting closer to finding out his next directing project.

[00:26:26] New reports suggest that Fast and the Furious 9 director

[00:26:31] is one of the main filmmakers being eyed to direct Spider-Man 4

[00:26:36] for Sony and Marvel.

[00:26:37] Interesting. Interesting.

[00:26:38] As part of the same report, Tom Holland and Zendaya will be back

[00:26:42] in their roles Peter Parker and MJ.

[00:26:44] It's said Zendaya has Spider-Man 4 on her plate, pushing photography

[00:26:49] for photography, photography on euphoria season three

[00:26:55] back until sometime after.

[00:26:57] So she's making Spidey 4 a priority.

[00:27:00] She's making space for it.

[00:27:02] The movie is expected to begin filming later this year in either

[00:27:06] September or October.

[00:27:07] It's unclear if Lin is the finalist or just one of the many

[00:27:11] currently running for the gig.

[00:27:13] Interestingly enough, many have thought the Spidey follow up

[00:27:17] would be a relatively small scale affair given the character's

[00:27:20] current status quo in the larger MCU.

[00:27:23] That seems a little contradictory for filmmaker, you know,

[00:27:27] Justin Lin, because he's like big.

[00:27:29] Yeah.

[00:27:29] Fast on the furious, explosiony guy.

[00:27:32] Boom, boom, boom.

[00:27:33] He does big blockbuster type movies.

[00:27:36] Absolutely.

[00:27:36] It could be one of the things things where Sony is like, you know what?

[00:27:39] We got to go out with a bang with Tom Holland.

[00:27:42] So let's get a big time director that can handle this.

[00:27:44] So tacos on the table will Spidey 4 go all fast

[00:27:47] in the furious with Justin Lin?

[00:27:51] My tacos are on the table for this.

[00:27:52] I think that Justin Lin, he has an eye for action.

[00:27:55] He has an eye for for for putting scenes together.

[00:27:59] It's like a hate or love the fast, fast and furious franchise.

[00:28:03] When Justin Lin came back to the fast and the furious franchise,

[00:28:06] it like reinvigorated the whole thing.

[00:28:08] Yeah, you know, Justin Lin understands how to make a large scale action movie.

[00:28:13] So I think Marvel is kind of like on that same level and saying like,

[00:28:18] oh, well, you know what?

[00:28:19] We know that Justin Lin can handle Spider-Man movie.

[00:28:22] As much as everybody thinks it's going to be small scale,

[00:28:24] you're not going to do a small scale movie with Spider-Man, no matter what it is.

[00:28:27] It's like even if every nobody remembers Pete and Spider-Man altogether,

[00:28:31] like the whole point of the movie is that everything is going to going to break

[00:28:35] wide open, you know, and Pete has to react to it.

[00:28:38] Right? So, you know, it's it's and even then, if you if you're dealing

[00:28:41] with the multiverse just because our universe or the 616 universe

[00:28:45] doesn't remember Spider-Man doesn't mean that other universes aren't

[00:28:48] going to find their way in and remember Spider-Man.

[00:28:50] Yeah, that's right.

[00:28:51] Where did we leave Spider-Man?

[00:28:52] So he was Spider-Man.

[00:28:54] He got outed that Peter Parker is Spider-Man and then they did the whole

[00:28:58] let's break reality thing.

[00:29:00] So now people don't know that he's Peter Parker, but people still remember

[00:29:04] that there's a Spider-Man.

[00:29:05] Right. OK.

[00:29:05] And also remember that we might have a Filipino hobgoblin.

[00:29:09] So and I'm OK with a Filipino hobgoblin.

[00:29:11] So am I.

[00:29:12] I would love to see Ned actually become a hobgoblin in the next

[00:29:15] movie. Right? Yeah.

[00:29:16] Just like throwing lumpia at people like exploding lumpia.

[00:29:19] And there's a movie for that.

[00:29:21] I know. There's already a movie about that.

[00:29:22] Well, he's not a villain.

[00:29:25] He's a good guy.

[00:29:26] Well, I'd watch that.

[00:29:27] I watched that. Yeah.

[00:29:28] OK, let's keep it going in.

[00:29:29] I know Kung Fu news.

[00:29:31] I know Kung Fu news.

[00:29:32] This is I'm going to need your reaction on this one.

[00:29:35] A new video game tied to the Matrix film franchise.

[00:29:38] OK. Might be in the works developer net ease games is said

[00:29:43] to be working on a title tied to the Matrix.

[00:29:46] This project was said to have been in the works ahead of the

[00:29:49] release of Matrix Resurrections, which when did that come out?

[00:29:52] Two years ago, three years.

[00:29:53] One year at the end of 21, which is the most recent movie yet.

[00:29:56] Twenty twenty one.

[00:29:58] The insider says the game was codenamed awake, but notes that

[00:30:01] they're that they're not certain that if the if it's still in

[00:30:05] development or has since been abandoned, if this Matrix game

[00:30:09] is in the works, there's a chance that could only be

[00:30:12] planned for a mobile device as tacos on the table.

[00:30:15] Are we getting the red pill and going back into the Matrix?

[00:30:18] So my take on this.

[00:30:20] The gaming community exploded when the Xbox One

[00:30:26] and when the Xbox Series X came out and they released the

[00:30:30] the Matrix Unreal Engine five like thing like the it was a test

[00:30:38] for Unreal Engine five and like the the internet and gaming

[00:30:41] just exploded with, oh my God, we need more of this.

[00:30:44] And then they took it off of the game store and it

[00:30:47] disappeared and and people were just like, what the fuck?

[00:30:49] We need more of this.

[00:30:50] Right? Yeah.

[00:30:51] So I don't know if that Matrix test was supposed to be a hey, guys,

[00:30:59] here's a tease of what we're coming out with and and then,

[00:31:02] you know, we're going to drop a game later and boom, here's the game.

[00:31:06] But people were waiting for this.

[00:31:08] People are expecting this at this point, especially with

[00:31:10] that demo that came out and everybody's like with how good

[00:31:15] that look it damn near looked real.

[00:31:17] Like it was almost indistinguishable from something

[00:31:19] that was that was like a live action movie.

[00:31:21] And that was like years ago, right?

[00:31:23] What was that? Was that like two years ago?

[00:31:25] About two or three years ago.

[00:31:26] Yeah. Oh my God.

[00:31:27] Yeah, it has been a long time.

[00:31:28] Yeah. And again, when it got pulled off the game store,

[00:31:30] people freaked out because they were just like, well, why?

[00:31:33] Why didn't they make a game out of this?

[00:31:34] Yeah, it feels like it's one of those things like, hey,

[00:31:36] here's our test for Unreal five and then a year later,

[00:31:39] the actual game comes out, right?

[00:31:41] But it didn't. Right.

[00:31:42] Right. So I mean, you know, people are waiting for this.

[00:31:44] This isn't something that people are just like, OK, well,

[00:31:46] yeah, whatever nobody cares about.

[00:31:47] Like people are actually waiting to see this game come out.

[00:31:49] So I'm my tacos are on the table.

[00:31:52] I think that I think that that teaser was just a

[00:31:57] like just kind of seeing where the market was and seeing if people

[00:31:59] actually wanted this.

[00:32:00] And now that the internet has made it very clear,

[00:32:03] they want a matrix video game that they're probably they probably went

[00:32:06] into like full blown like development mode on this.

[00:32:09] But they also probably didn't announce anything.

[00:32:11] So then they don't have to worry about crunching.

[00:32:12] I hear everything you're saying.

[00:32:14] My tacos are not on the table because

[00:32:17] it's been so long since we got that Unreal five.

[00:32:21] Plus, Unreal isn't like mobile ready, right?

[00:32:23] So Unreal is not.

[00:32:25] I again, I think that's more speculation on the article writer

[00:32:29] is saying that, oh, maybe it'll be a mobile game.

[00:32:31] I mean, they might do something where it's like a precursor to the game

[00:32:35] is a mobile game because a lot of companies are doing that where it's

[00:32:37] like, oh, here's a mobile game or comic or something that kind of like

[00:32:42] kind of gets you ready for the storyline they're going to tell.

[00:32:44] Right.

[00:32:45] And makes it so that it's a little more.

[00:32:48] It makes it so that you have more people who are aware of it already

[00:32:53] and are just like, OK, I want to write more.

[00:32:55] Right? It's like a marketing push.

[00:32:56] Right. Exactly. All these supplemental things.

[00:32:58] Yeah, yeah, totally. Yeah.

[00:32:59] I mean, Agent Double A is in the chat right now saying,

[00:33:03] give me a matrix game. God damn it.

[00:33:05] See, he wants to.

[00:33:06] And that's actually a question I had.

[00:33:08] I'm like, because Matrix came out three years ago now.

[00:33:11] Yeah. Are people clamoring for this game?

[00:33:13] And to be honest, the movie came out and it was like, OK,

[00:33:16] it's a matrix movie. Yeah.

[00:33:18] But it wasn't like the blockbuster mind blowing matrix movie

[00:33:22] that we thought it was going to be.

[00:33:24] Yeah, but it was also pushed on Max and it wasn't like in theaters

[00:33:28] the way that we wanted it because of covid.

[00:33:31] That's true.

[00:33:31] So maybe the marketing got pulled back a little bit.

[00:33:34] Right. Now, the other big thing with this too is the argument

[00:33:37] that, OK, well, it's been too long.

[00:33:39] Again, I just finished playing Shadow of Mordor.

[00:33:43] That game came out like 10 years after Lord of the Ring and it got game of the year.

[00:33:46] OK, right?

[00:33:47] Or like the Mad Max game that I have that I'm probably going to end up playing too.

[00:33:52] It's another game that came out like, you know, years after

[00:33:57] the Mad Max, the latest Mad Max movie came out.

[00:33:59] Right. So it's like, you know, it's not so much does the audience want it?

[00:34:03] It's more of a if we put it out people or is there enough

[00:34:07] nostalgia behind this IP that's going to make people go, oh my God,

[00:34:10] I want to get this. And like the nostalgia on the IP will sell the idea.

[00:34:15] But if you make a good game, then that sells the game.

[00:34:19] You know, again, Shadow of Mordor is a good example because yes,

[00:34:22] the nostalgia of Lord of the Rings sold the idea of the game.

[00:34:26] But what got it game of the year was because it is genuinely a good game

[00:34:30] and the story is good. Gotcha.

[00:34:31] Yeah. I mean, and you can jump off a building and stab an orc in the back.

[00:34:35] Yeah. I mean, what can you not love about jumping off a building

[00:34:39] with no fall damage and killing orcs? Exactly.

[00:34:43] I'm like, this is what you do.

[00:34:44] You just jump off buildings and stab people in the back.

[00:34:47] That's, you know, very heroic of you.

[00:34:49] By the way, double A in the chat has said that I have a very valid point.

[00:34:54] I'm just saying, saying thank you double A for finally agreeing with me.

[00:34:58] But he says he doesn't want a mobile game.

[00:35:01] He wants a console game, which I don't know.

[00:35:03] It seems like mobile games are on the downturn.

[00:35:05] I don't hear about as many mobile games as I do console games or switch games.

[00:35:11] I think it's starting to become a hybrid, man,

[00:35:14] because I think a lot of consoles are trying to move in the direction

[00:35:17] of being able to play on on mobile.

[00:35:20] But at the same time, mobile is trying to accommodate for console streaming.

[00:35:24] So like, for example, I can play games on my Xbox on my phone.

[00:35:28] Right. All I have to do is link my Xbox with my phone, open the Xbox app

[00:35:32] and I can play it on my phone.

[00:35:34] It's a lot smaller and, you know, not easy as easy to play with.

[00:35:38] And there's controls you can buy that go on the side of your phone

[00:35:41] and you get controls like I would my regular Xbox.

[00:35:44] Oh, OK, gotcha.

[00:35:46] So I mean, there are ways to do that.

[00:35:48] Also, I was just talking with somebody recently.

[00:35:51] I think it might actually be Tater that was he sleeping?

[00:35:55] He doesn't remember.

[00:35:55] He was he was sleepwalking.

[00:35:57] Got it. But he got Grand Theft Auto,

[00:36:01] like a full Grand Theft Auto on his phone.

[00:36:03] Oh, interesting. By the way, I asked him like,

[00:36:07] hey, can you see how many stickers we have?

[00:36:09] And that was like over a week ago.

[00:36:11] He answered you.

[00:36:12] But he's been like playing these games on his phone.

[00:36:15] Come on, bro. He answered you.

[00:36:17] No, I don't believe it.

[00:36:18] He's too busy sleeping.

[00:36:19] No, it was my boy Jason.

[00:36:21] My boy Jason had it and it was full on Grand Theft Auto

[00:36:25] San Andreas, the full game on his phone.

[00:36:28] He's just playing it.

[00:36:29] Can you play? Here's just a personal question.

[00:36:31] Can you play like full Unreal 5 experience of Sudoku on your Xbox?

[00:36:39] Because that's kind of where I am right now in life.

[00:36:41] I can only play Sudoku if they all these other games.

[00:36:45] If they made if they made a Sudoku game

[00:36:48] that had Ray Tracing in Unreal 5, then I'm sure you could.

[00:36:54] All you kids and your games and whatnot.

[00:36:57] Doubly in the chat asking, are they going to make a halo game

[00:37:00] out of this show that's out?

[00:37:02] It's a good point.

[00:37:02] Maybe they should make it a game out of halo.

[00:37:05] Right. I just actually I just got a reminder before we before

[00:37:09] we move on any further on the show, I don't want to like throw

[00:37:16] throw because we're about to move into the download.

[00:37:18] But I don't want to throw a downer on this.

[00:37:21] But I do want to dedicate the remainder of this episode to

[00:37:26] to somebody stop the music here.

[00:37:29] So recently, a friend of ours, his brother passed away.

[00:37:34] And it was kind of sudden and kind of a big thing.

[00:37:40] You know, my heart goes out to him.

[00:37:43] I mean, we all know him, especially in our community,

[00:37:46] but Daniel Flores really good.

[00:37:48] Shout out to Chef.

[00:37:49] Chef to AYC chef.

[00:37:52] Daniel Flores, he's been on almost every wrestling episode

[00:37:55] that we've done.

[00:37:56] His younger brother passed away just recently.

[00:37:58] And he wanted to shout out and kind of dedicate the rest

[00:38:02] of the episode here to to his brother.

[00:38:04] So, you know, rest in peace, Matthew, Joseph Flores, you know,

[00:38:09] and my heart goes out to him, to his family.

[00:38:13] He has two other two other brothers, you know,

[00:38:15] to his parents and everything like that.

[00:38:18] Because I mean, it's a massive blow.

[00:38:20] And again, he was a big nerd.

[00:38:22] He wasn't as much of a wrestling nerd.

[00:38:24] But I mean, like, you know, he was into all the same

[00:38:26] same stuff that we were into.

[00:38:27] Apparently, he had like an encyclopedic knowledge of spawn

[00:38:30] and like, you know, DC characters and stuff like that.

[00:38:33] I mean, you know, it's it's it's kind of a big deal.

[00:38:36] And and you know, he was he was young.

[00:38:39] Yeah, you know, he he leaves a family

[00:38:43] that loved and supported him.

[00:38:44] So shout out to Matthew.

[00:38:46] We appreciate you.

[00:38:47] Shout out to Chef.

[00:38:49] We love you.

[00:38:49] Take care of you and in the rest of your family.

[00:38:52] Make sure you hug and kiss and say, I love you

[00:38:55] to all your family members whenever you can,

[00:38:58] because life is precious.

[00:39:00] It is. All right.

[00:39:01] It's on that note again, dedicating the download to

[00:39:05] to to Matthew here.

[00:39:07] Let's get into the download, guys.

[00:39:08] Yeah.

[00:39:16] All right.

[00:39:18] Get your spinach flavored popcorn ready.

[00:39:21] Popeye sounds disgusting.

[00:39:25] Come on, you got to try it.

[00:39:26] I like spinach, but spinach and popcorn don't go together.

[00:39:29] I like spinach.

[00:39:33] Me likes me spinach.

[00:39:36] First appearing in comic strips in the 1920s,

[00:39:39] the subject of a new live action film featuring Popeye.

[00:39:43] All right, live action Popeye.

[00:39:45] Imagine that. Oh wait, we got one already way back in the day.

[00:39:49] The project is currently in development as a big budget feature

[00:39:53] and has attached screenwriter Michael K. Lowe from the family,

[00:39:58] sexy beast and the sopranos writing it.

[00:40:02] OK, all right.

[00:40:03] Interested this is the first live action

[00:40:05] revisiting of Popeye since the 1980 film featuring Robin Williams.

[00:40:11] A fucking classic.

[00:40:12] I love absolutely was a fucking classic.

[00:40:15] Popeye celebrated his 95th anniversary this year.

[00:40:19] Really? I know.

[00:40:20] Been around for 95 years.

[00:40:22] Yeah, that's so nuts.

[00:40:24] Will gladly pay you on Tuesday for release date info today,

[00:40:29] but yet there's no release date for the film.

[00:40:32] I mean, I'm sure it's going to be fun.

[00:40:34] Only thing I'm a little iffy on is screenwriter from the sopranos.

[00:40:38] So I mean, it's like, is it going to be like a is Bluto going to be a mob boss?

[00:40:43] Give me a cheeseburger.

[00:40:44] Where's your cheeseburger?

[00:40:45] Yeah, I need you to give me a cheeseburger.

[00:40:48] So moving on from that,

[00:40:51] this next story is all in the hips.

[00:40:54] It's all in the hips.

[00:40:56] God, a little sad that we're not going to have him in the movie.

[00:40:59] But still a sequel to the classic 1996 Adam Sandler comedy,

[00:41:04] Happy Gilmore may be in the making as a first draft of the script has been written

[00:41:08] according to actor Christopher McDonald, the cast member of the original film.

[00:41:12] Actually, I just remembered that he his character died in the first movie anyway.

[00:41:15] So we're fine with that.

[00:41:17] Sources say the project will be for Netflix, where Sandler and Happy Madison

[00:41:21] have long had a deal.

[00:41:23] Though the streamer is declining comment, reps for Sandler also had no comment.

[00:41:27] Released by Universal Pictures, the film directed by Dennis Dugan

[00:41:30] grossed over 82 million worldwide and retained a cult following to this day.

[00:41:36] No tea time set for the Happy Gilmore sequel.

[00:41:39] But how do you feel about this man?

[00:41:40] I'm interested in this.

[00:41:42] You know what's so funny?

[00:41:42] He comes out with this Netflix deal.

[00:41:45] And it seems like he has a movie like every six months.

[00:41:48] There's like a new Sandler movie straight to Netflix.

[00:41:50] But like people want this classic Sandler stuff to be revisited, you know?

[00:41:55] Yeah.

[00:41:56] Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, you know, 50 first dates.

[00:42:00] We want all those like movies that, you know, kind of shaped the 90s,

[00:42:05] 2000s for a ton of people.

[00:42:06] Like we want all that back.

[00:42:08] I'm surprised he hasn't dipped it back into that.

[00:42:11] Instead, we've gotten like grown ups two and grown ups three, which is like

[00:42:15] OK, we'll take it.

[00:42:16] But let's play another couple rounds of golf with Happy Gilmore.

[00:42:19] You know what I mean? Give me that.

[00:42:21] Exactly.

[00:42:22] Oh, shout out to Jen.

[00:42:24] Shout out to Fray in the chat.

[00:42:25] She said, let's do a crossover.

[00:42:27] Happy Gilmore and Gilmore girls.

[00:42:28] There you go.

[00:42:29] There you go.

[00:42:31] You know, he eats pieces of shit like you for breakfast.

[00:42:34] You eat pieces of shit, gross.

[00:42:37] Oh, it's so funny.

[00:42:38] Is Subway still Happy's sponsor?

[00:42:40] That's the question.

[00:42:41] Well, yeah, I mean, we might as well.

[00:42:43] Jerry's not going to be the sponsor.

[00:42:44] So, you know, might as well have Happy.

[00:42:48] Right. Happy doing.

[00:42:48] But you know what I mean, though?

[00:42:49] Like, revisit those films.

[00:42:51] I get like you're making new films and doing all kinds of new stuff.

[00:42:54] But why don't you go back to these films?

[00:42:56] Yeah, no, I like the idea of it.

[00:42:57] And I'm sure Netflix would be like, yeah, give me Happy Gilmore 2.

[00:43:02] Just like how Amazon came out with what coming to America.

[00:43:06] You know, I still haven't watched that.

[00:43:07] I actually forgot to watch it.

[00:43:09] There you go. You're welcome.

[00:43:10] Yeah, I've done my good deed of the day.

[00:43:13] All right. Next story.

[00:43:14] Falkor flies again.

[00:43:17] The never ending story, the beloved fantasy novel from late German author

[00:43:21] Michael Endi that was famously adapted in 1984 is being revived for the big screen

[00:43:28] with a new joint venture partnership between Michael Endi Productions and Seesaw Films.

[00:43:33] The news brings to an end the race for one of the hottest fantasy properties yet

[00:43:38] to be tapped for modern audiences.

[00:43:40] Variety hears that Endi's estate has been fielding interest from across the globe

[00:43:45] over the last few years, including studios and streamers.

[00:43:50] I was like, what Seesaw Films?

[00:43:52] I've never heard of it, but Seesaw Films, no stranger to adapting.

[00:43:55] Well known literature.

[00:43:57] They've done The Lion, Power of the Dog, Heartstoppers and Slow Horses.

[00:44:02] OK, I know Frey, you know, Jen's in the chat right now,

[00:44:05] but I know she really likes slow horses.

[00:44:08] I've heard good things about slow horses.

[00:44:09] Yeah, so it'll be interesting to see how they adapt the never ending story.

[00:44:13] By the way, they're talking about it being multiple movies,

[00:44:16] not just let's redo never ending story.

[00:44:18] This is going to be some kind of series of movies,

[00:44:22] whether it's to a streamer or to a studio,

[00:44:24] but it's not just going to be one two hour long movie.

[00:44:27] It's going to be multiple chapters of this storytelling.

[00:44:31] Much of the details about the production, including the exact number of films

[00:44:35] to be made will depend on the creatives that they're assembling now too

[00:44:39] early to give a date when we will see a Trey you Bastion and a Falcor again.

[00:44:44] I Trey you say my name, I Trey you.

[00:44:47] The question is, are they bringing back the song?

[00:44:49] Right? Never ending story.

[00:44:54] That was a fucking banger.

[00:44:57] Banger, man.

[00:44:58] That's what I'm talking about.

[00:45:00] Bring that back.

[00:45:01] A fucking banger, bro.

[00:45:03] Give me give me like some kind of trap remix of that.

[00:45:07] I'm sure I'm sure one exists.

[00:45:09] I'm sure there is a trap remix to never ending story.

[00:45:13] YouTube DJs out there, don't fail me.

[00:45:15] Go somebody go do a trap remix of the never ending theme song.

[00:45:19] Or if anything, there's a dubstep remix of it.

[00:45:21] I need it. I need it.

[00:45:22] I'm going to have to look it up.

[00:45:23] I'll post it in the nerding's impose if I find one.

[00:45:25] Oh, so good.

[00:45:27] All right.

[00:45:28] Throw your hands in the air and wave them like you just don't care.

[00:45:34] Yeah.

[00:45:34] David Ayer.

[00:45:36] Oh, these intros.

[00:45:37] David Ayer is best known for Helming Suicide Squad,

[00:45:40] End of the Watch and Fury.

[00:45:42] And this year he made the beak or actually last year he made the beak keeper.

[00:45:46] Oh, that was an airman.

[00:45:47] Which ended up being a hit deadline has reported that Ayer has signed

[00:45:51] onto direct Paramount Pictures Heart of the Beast,

[00:45:55] which is being produced by La La Land and Babylon director Damien Chazelle.

[00:46:01] Chazelle?

[00:46:01] Chazelle?

[00:46:02] Chazelle?

[00:46:03] But you know, his name, David Ayer comes up every now and again

[00:46:06] in like why don't we have a, you know, air cut of Suicide Squad?

[00:46:11] And I don't know why it keeps coming up,

[00:46:12] but there must be a ton more footage out there that got scrapped,

[00:46:16] you know, for whatever reason.

[00:46:17] From what I understand, a lot happened with that movie.

[00:46:20] And you know, basically instead of getting a professional film editor to edit it,

[00:46:26] they had a trailer house edited it.

[00:46:29] And that's why the movie ended up the way it did.

[00:46:31] Gotcha.

[00:46:32] That makes sense.

[00:46:33] That makes sense.

[00:46:34] But yeah, I do have a kind of anopsis, no dog left behind,

[00:46:38] gritty sled dogs, where's Cuba Gooding Jr.

[00:46:41] Synopsis on this next film?

[00:46:44] That's not bad.

[00:46:44] All right.

[00:46:45] Kind of anopsis, no dog left behind, gritty sled dogs,

[00:46:49] where Cuba Gooding Jr., where's Cuba Gooding Jr.

[00:46:52] Synopsis.

[00:46:55] I said it and it made no sense.

[00:46:57] And I went back and looked at it.

[00:46:59] Oh, because I misread it.

[00:47:00] Oh, it's do they ever make sense?

[00:47:02] No, no, it made sense.

[00:47:04] What you wrote made sense perfectly.

[00:47:07] What I read didn't what I read out loud didn't make sense because I said it wrong.

[00:47:11] Well, I appreciate that.

[00:47:12] But the next one is doesn't make sense at all.

[00:47:14] So yes, the story follows a former Navy seal and his retired combat dog

[00:47:22] who attempt to return to civilization after a catastrophic accident

[00:47:26] deep deep in the Alaskan wilderness.

[00:47:29] No date for the film's release.

[00:47:31] All right, OK.

[00:47:32] Dog adventure. I like it.

[00:47:33] Adventure. That sounds like a lot of fun.

[00:47:35] I mean, Ayer makes decent movies.

[00:47:38] So I'm sure especially if he has like the story that he tells is something

[00:47:43] that is like, you know, a human level story and you focus on the humanity

[00:47:49] with the way that he does.

[00:47:51] I'm sure it'll be good.

[00:47:52] Will it involve the Joker with a grill and tattoos on his face

[00:47:57] and tattoos on the face?

[00:47:58] Yeah. Oh, Fregero in the chat saying Cuba might be in some trouble with the law.

[00:48:03] Cuba is always in trouble with the law.

[00:48:05] I'm sorry, Cuba getting junior gets gets in trouble all the time.

[00:48:08] Because he likes money.

[00:48:10] I wouldn't say it's because he likes money.

[00:48:12] It's because he puts his foot in his mouth and he says a lot of stupid shit

[00:48:15] because he wants you to show him the money.

[00:48:17] Show me the money.

[00:48:19] Yeah. Yeah.

[00:48:21] It's it's more again.

[00:48:23] I'm not I'm not going to quote what he said because what he said is stupid.

[00:48:27] But he got in trouble a while back for saying somebody somebody fuck that blank.

[00:48:32] Wow. OK, well, he's no P. Diddy.

[00:48:34] Yeah. And and and and the the the blank word really fucked up.

[00:48:42] I mean, I was going to say let's let's go ahead and move on here guys.

[00:48:46] He's not doing white parties, you know, in the Hamptons.

[00:48:49] I know because with with like a 14 year old Justin Timberlake.

[00:48:54] You know what I'm saying?

[00:48:55] Let's keep it going.

[00:48:55] All right. OK.

[00:48:56] Finally, the WWE has come back to the download.

[00:49:02] Oh, very nice.

[00:49:03] Oh, yeah. WWE has refined its focus on populating its developmental system

[00:49:09] with collegiate athletes rather than talent from across the independent resting

[00:49:13] scene instead of taking already established wrestlers and shifting them

[00:49:17] towards the WWE style, WWE is now prioritizing taking

[00:49:21] athletically ready prospects and molding them into WWE superstars from the ground up.

[00:49:27] WWE has premiered the trailer for WWE Next Gen in eight episode

[00:49:32] documentary set to stream exclusively on the Roku Channel.

[00:49:35] The trailer opens with John Cena, who also executive produces WWE Next Gen

[00:49:40] talking to a group of prospects inside SoFi Stadium before WWE WrestleMania

[00:49:44] 39 kicks off.

[00:49:46] I want to say.

[00:49:47] Interesting.

[00:49:48] Yeah.

[00:49:48] I was going to say this may be the most times I've ever said the word WWE and

[00:49:53] once like run.

[00:49:55] Yeah, right?

[00:49:56] Exactly.

[00:49:56] Also this.

[00:49:57] How do you?

[00:49:57] Huh?

[00:49:58] I was going to say how do you feel about this?

[00:50:00] Because really the the formula has been OK.

[00:50:04] Here's WWE.

[00:50:05] We have a certain product go out to the indies and find potential

[00:50:11] WWW type stars, you know, bigger dudes, bigger meaty dudes

[00:50:17] over like six four because that's how Vince McMahon liked his wrestlers

[00:50:23] just bigger than life type guys.

[00:50:24] Right.

[00:50:25] But now WWE has flipped the script and it's like, I don't care if you have

[00:50:29] a wrestling background or not.

[00:50:31] Give me just big chiseled athletes and we will teach you the ways of WWE.

[00:50:37] I think for the most part they're looking for athletes that they can turn

[00:50:40] into wrestlers, right?

[00:50:41] I mean, it's always that way.

[00:50:43] They've always kind of gone after athletes that they can turn into wrestlers.

[00:50:47] I mean, you look at a lot of like some of the big names in the last couple

[00:50:50] of years have been Bianca Belair being she was a track athlete who was also

[00:50:57] gymnast who's now becoming a wrestler.

[00:51:00] Biggie was a power lifter though.

[00:51:02] So I mean, like those people tend to work well.

[00:51:05] But he didn't have a wrestling background.

[00:51:06] Like he wasn't trained to be a wrestler and then WD called them up.

[00:51:09] They just said, hey, you're big meaty and strong.

[00:51:12] Yeah, come here.

[00:51:13] He he went the same route of sexual chocolate though.

[00:51:15] You've gone the same route of sexual chocolate.

[00:51:17] You know what I'm saying?

[00:51:18] Yeah, hell yeah.

[00:51:18] Um, but I mean, I mean, like your Ronda Rousey's and your your Brock

[00:51:24] Lessoners, you know, because even Brock Lesnar wasn't a, you know,

[00:51:28] a professional wrestler.

[00:51:30] He was a collegiate wrestler, which is a different type of resting altogether.

[00:51:33] You know, same thing that they were just a while back.

[00:51:35] They were going after who's the guy that was in the Olympics

[00:51:38] that they wanted really bad and just never kind of fell through.

[00:51:41] Gable.

[00:51:42] Yeah, something gable.

[00:51:43] Steve Gable or something like that.

[00:51:44] Right.

[00:51:45] Yeah, like, you know, like they've always gone after athletes.

[00:51:48] Now from the description and everything on this, what it feels like

[00:51:51] is just another tough enough.

[00:51:53] It's like the 2024 version of tough enough.

[00:51:55] You're right.

[00:51:56] Yeah, it just feels like tough enough.

[00:51:57] That's really what this is.

[00:51:59] So we do have an Opsis here if you want to kind of tie me.

[00:52:01] I do have a finally you can.

[00:52:03] Are you ready?

[00:52:04] The Rock, see me resting just a sexy boy meaty man slapping meat.

[00:52:09] Synopsis.

[00:52:10] Jesus Christ, James.

[00:52:11] Are you serious?

[00:52:12] Yes.

[00:52:13] Finally, are you ready?

[00:52:15] You can't.

[00:52:15] Are you ready?

[00:52:16] The Rock has see me resting just a sexy boy meaty men slapping meats.

[00:52:23] Synopsis.

[00:52:25] Synopsis.

[00:52:27] You just took every catchphrase that has ever been famous in the WWE

[00:52:31] and put it all there and then added in meaty men slapping meats,

[00:52:34] which is one of my favorite big E quotes of all time.

[00:52:38] That's right, your brony.

[00:52:40] That that quote for those of you who aren't wrestling fans,

[00:52:43] that quote came that was on the SmackDown after show, right?

[00:52:48] I think so.

[00:52:48] Yeah.

[00:52:48] And they were the new day we're in the room and he was he was talking

[00:52:52] shit about wrestling in general.

[00:52:54] And he was like, I just want to see big men, big meat slapping meat.

[00:52:58] And everybody is just big.

[00:53:01] He's delivery is exactly like that where he's like looking off and just

[00:53:04] like big meat slapping meat.

[00:53:06] He's trying not to laugh and everybody around him is cracking up.

[00:53:10] One of the best catchphrases that was not a catchphrase.

[00:53:14] Yeah, exactly.

[00:53:15] From executive producer John Cena, this eight part documentary

[00:53:19] Chronicles the lives of athletes vying to get a contract and become

[00:53:23] superstars in the largest sports entertainment company in the world.

[00:53:27] The WWE.

[00:53:29] Roku shared in a press release from tryouts in Los Angeles to training

[00:53:33] at WWE's elite WWE Performance Center.

[00:53:36] In Orlando, Florida, they'll get coaching and insights from some of

[00:53:40] the WWE's biggest superstars.

[00:53:42] The road to the ring will challenge them, but the biggest tests

[00:53:46] they'll face will be ones they create on their own.

[00:53:49] WWE Next Gen premieres on the Roku Channel on Monday, April 1st.

[00:53:54] That's not too far away.

[00:53:55] Right before WrestleMania.

[00:53:57] I like that.

[00:53:57] Interesting that it's on the Roku Channel.

[00:54:00] Roku has been getting a lot of a lot of those kind of, you know,

[00:54:05] new shows and things like that.

[00:54:07] So yeah, but I mean, it's just interesting for WWE because they

[00:54:11] are definitely spreading themselves out because their premier live

[00:54:16] events, their pay-per-views are on Peacock, right?

[00:54:19] They are also being broadcasted on Hulu as well.

[00:54:23] Right now they have some stuff with the Roku Channel.

[00:54:27] Oh, not to mention all their documentary stuff is on A&E.

[00:54:30] Yeah. So they're just all over the place.

[00:54:32] It's kind of nuts.

[00:54:33] Usually they would, you know, with all this extra content, it would go to like

[00:54:36] one place, one streamer, but it's kind of all over.

[00:54:40] I mean, again, we've talked about this many times.

[00:54:44] The biggest mistake they ever made was getting rid of the WWE Network

[00:54:47] because all this stuff would have been things that were on the WWE Network.

[00:54:51] Together in one place.

[00:54:52] Right. And then they did this deal with Peacock, which everybody in

[00:54:56] the wrestling community, everybody who watches WWE all hate.

[00:54:59] We all hate that they went to Peacock because it was like it was so much worse.

[00:55:02] You know, like PLEs aren't as fun to watch on Peacock as they were when

[00:55:05] they're on the WWE Network.

[00:55:06] Well, hold on.

[00:55:07] I think part of that has to do with the Peacock app, not necessarily

[00:55:12] that they're on Peacock.

[00:55:13] Like, to be honest, I think it brings a ton more eyes when there's an

[00:55:17] ad that comes up.

[00:55:18] It's Money in the Bank.

[00:55:19] It's WrestleMania.

[00:55:21] It's Royal Rumble right there, you know, on the homepage of Peacock.

[00:55:25] Ton more eyes versus being super niche and being on the WWE app back in the day.

[00:55:30] Right. And I mean, I get that.

[00:55:32] You have a lot more visibility when you're on Peacock, but at the same time,

[00:55:35] the app sucks by comparison.

[00:55:37] Well, that's just a technology thing.

[00:55:39] Like if the app sucks, the app sucks, but that doesn't hinder the marketing

[00:55:43] of it and getting their brand out there.

[00:55:46] I see what you're saying.

[00:55:48] Do you smell what I'm cooking?

[00:55:49] I smell.

[00:55:50] Or can you not see me?

[00:55:51] I smell what you're cooking.

[00:55:52] I smell what I'm cooking.

[00:55:53] I smell what I'm cooking.

[00:55:55] But I dig this.

[00:55:56] I like that we're going to have some WWE documentary, you know, seeing some stars

[00:56:01] coming up type of thing.

[00:56:02] Oh, we were joined by a rogue Frey.

[00:56:07] Yeah, a wild Frey.

[00:56:08] That can't spell and apparently doesn't know what the hell she's doing half

[00:56:12] the time.

[00:56:12] Apparently her name is Farnau.

[00:56:13] Well, it's going to change her.

[00:56:14] So, hi guys.

[00:56:18] Hey, Frey.

[00:56:19] And I feel like I'm like a freaking Pokemon cancer patient right now.

[00:56:22] You're like a wild, a wild Frey.

[00:56:25] A wild Frey has shown up in the chat.

[00:56:27] Just in time.

[00:56:28] Gotta catch them all.

[00:56:29] I know.

[00:56:29] Just in time for us to move on to our next story.

[00:56:31] Oh, I missed the WWE story.

[00:56:35] Oh, dare I?

[00:56:39] Don't mess with us.

[00:56:41] We see you in the chat.

[00:56:43] You're just waiting for us to get past the WWE story.

[00:56:46] So then you can show me.

[00:56:47] I was. Yeah, you're right.

[00:56:48] I timed it that way.

[00:56:50] My lifetime did that way.

[00:56:51] Exactly.

[00:56:52] Well done, life.

[00:56:53] You want me to take this one?

[00:56:56] Yeah, do it.

[00:56:56] All right.

[00:56:57] Because you know what?

[00:56:58] I got to say no more.

[00:57:00] Just dive in.

[00:57:01] And on your left news.

[00:57:03] A piece of promo art has been revealed for Captain America,

[00:57:09] Brave New World or whatever the hell its name is now.

[00:57:12] And it offers a first look at Falcon and the Winter Soldiers.

[00:57:17] Danny Ramirez suited up as the Falcon.

[00:57:20] The character looks like he'll be sporting a helmet similar to the one

[00:57:24] in the comics, but with an updated style as it doesn't feature the beak.

[00:57:29] I don't know.

[00:57:30] I mean, I think like the way that the V goes down,

[00:57:33] it could also look kind of beakish.

[00:57:35] So I think that's kind of cool.

[00:57:37] The film is scheduled to fly into theaters February 14th, 2025.

[00:57:42] I agree with you.

[00:57:43] I think it's enough homage to the actual suit in the comics that it like,

[00:57:49] it has enough inspiration where it's like, oh, you see the connection.

[00:57:51] I mean, even the colors, but it's not like.

[00:57:54] Also, like we're seeing it straight on in profile,

[00:57:57] it may look a little bit more beak like too.

[00:58:00] You got to think about that as well.

[00:58:01] Like in profile, it may come out a little bit more so that it looks like

[00:58:06] a beak almost whether there's a beak or not a beak.

[00:58:09] I don't really care.

[00:58:10] I think it's cool or not to be that is the question.

[00:58:13] Whether it is no blur and men's.

[00:58:15] Oh, sorry.

[00:58:17] I'm going to be honest on this one.

[00:58:19] I'm actually really excited for this.

[00:58:20] And it's mainly because even before, even before he became Captain America,

[00:58:26] this is like way back in like the Civil War days.

[00:58:29] I brought this up and this is going back, James.

[00:58:33] I brought this up in a conversation I had with Buddy, right?

[00:58:36] Back in the Hardly Hero days when I was saying that I, you know,

[00:58:41] I've always been a big thing like a big person on representation.

[00:58:44] Right?

[00:58:44] So I will talk about we need Danny Ramirez, right?

[00:58:47] At some point, you know, I was saying at some point, Falcon needs to become

[00:58:52] Captain America, which means that we would get Danny Ramirez,

[00:58:55] who's the second Falcon, right?

[00:58:56] Yeah.

[00:58:57] Danny Ramirez.

[00:58:58] And then he evolves into Falcor.

[00:59:01] But like Danny Ramirez, the big thing with him is like he's one

[00:59:05] of the few like Latino superheroes within Marvel as far as comic continuity

[00:59:09] goes.

[00:59:09] And now we're getting Danny Ramirez.

[00:59:11] So it's like, OK, awesome.

[00:59:12] And again, we got introduced to him in Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

[00:59:16] He wasn't really, you know, on the route to becoming Falcon.

[00:59:21] But I mean, it was just kind of like we're introduced to the character.

[00:59:24] So like we know hopefully he becomes Falcon at some point.

[00:59:27] Obviously we get to see now they're putting out promos of him becoming Falcon.

[00:59:30] So I mean, to me, it's sort of a big deal.

[00:59:33] Oh my gosh, freaking graveyard.

[00:59:36] And then he's going to sink.

[00:59:38] He's going to sink.

[00:59:39] I can show you the work.

[00:59:42] Did did he get the suit in the show?

[00:59:46] No, he was like just working on the.

[00:59:49] He was working on Redbird.

[00:59:50] Yeah, that's right.

[00:59:51] There were a lot of references that he understands the tech and that he

[00:59:56] that he's done test flights with with with the wingsuit with

[00:59:59] like a new wingsuit and stuff like that.

[01:00:00] So I mean, they they it wasn't just like, you know, he's

[01:00:05] that he's his sidekick.

[01:00:06] Like they kind of like reference that he understands the tech,

[01:00:09] which is kind of a sign that he will become Falcon because it's not just a.

[01:00:13] Oh yeah, I'm just here to help.

[01:00:15] It's like a you know, the dude understands

[01:00:17] like the role and the tech and what he's doing.

[01:00:20] And now that now that Falcon is Captain America,

[01:00:22] there's a void on the character of Falcon,

[01:00:25] which Danny Ramirez is already there to fill.

[01:00:27] You mean Captain America Darkhold Diaries?

[01:00:31] Is that yeah.

[01:00:32] Yeah. No, that's the name of the movie.

[01:00:33] And then it's just going to be called Falcon, not like anything else.

[01:00:37] Isn't that what they're doing?

[01:00:38] The fact that we had this conversation last week.

[01:00:40] I don't want to I don't want to rehash this whole thing.

[01:00:43] No, but also something else.

[01:00:45] I was reading something.

[01:00:46] It just came out like as like, I think you guys were on the air when it came

[01:00:49] out, freaking Anthony Mackie totally burst my bubble.

[01:00:53] Sebastian Stan.

[01:00:54] He's Sebastian Stan isn't going to be in freaking cap four.

[01:00:57] Yeah, I saw I think he's the werewolf.

[01:00:59] No, I think something's going to happen.

[01:01:01] I think something's going to happen in Thunderbolts that causes

[01:01:05] that causes him not to be there.

[01:01:06] Oh, maybe.

[01:01:07] Or the events of Thunderbolts are happening at the same time as Captain America.

[01:01:12] It could be that I, you know, I was also thinking that maybe,

[01:01:16] you know, he never said that he wasn't in Thunderbolts.

[01:01:20] Yeah, he just said that Sebastian Stan wasn't in cap four.

[01:01:24] Right.

[01:01:25] So maybe he's in Thunderbolts and we find out because I'm still on this

[01:01:30] train of Bucky is there as a spy and he's like he and and Sam are like together.

[01:01:37] So it may be text messages or something or some sort of like coded

[01:01:42] contact that they have so that Sebastian Stan isn't in the movie, but it's like.

[01:01:46] And so I wonder, I wonder about that because it's just weird because I don't

[01:01:50] ever remember Bucky being in the Thunderbolts.

[01:01:54] And so I feel like there has to be a reason for it because they've

[01:01:58] made him pretty front and center in it.

[01:01:59] Yeah, especially in the marketing so far.

[01:02:01] They've they've definitely made it clear that that Bucky Barnes is going to be in

[01:02:06] in Thunderbolts.

[01:02:07] Mm hmm.

[01:02:08] Well, he was like frozen, right?

[01:02:09] So there's no way he could be on Black Widow's soccer team as a kid.

[01:02:15] Right? No.

[01:02:15] Right. No.

[01:02:16] Anyone?

[01:02:16] No.

[01:02:17] This thing on?

[01:02:18] No.

[01:02:18] All right.

[01:02:19] He's like, I just did a joke and no one laughed.

[01:02:21] What the hell?

[01:02:22] It didn't land.

[01:02:22] OK.

[01:02:23] No, no, no, wait, I got it.

[01:02:24] Because we're talking about.

[01:02:28] Does that make you feel better, James?

[01:02:30] There you go.

[01:02:31] Yeah, yeah, I appreciate that.

[01:02:32] I'll take it.

[01:02:33] Laugh track for you.

[01:02:34] Falcons fly a lot on very rarely land.

[01:02:40] All right, I think I think we can let this one fly away.

[01:02:43] Fly away?

[01:02:46] From a galaxy far, far away.

[01:02:49] Lucasfilm has announced some big plans for Star Wars Day.

[01:02:53] It was previously announced Star Wars The Phantom Menace would be heading back

[01:02:57] into theaters for its 25th anniversary.

[01:03:00] Oh my God, I remember seeing that in theaters like that night.

[01:03:03] But the rest of the films in the Sky Wars Skywalker saga will follow.

[01:03:08] It's definitely a great opportunity for fans to take their kids who have never

[01:03:12] seen the movie in theaters.

[01:03:13] The Phantom Menace is returning to theaters on May 3rd and will include

[01:03:18] a special sneak peek at the upcoming series Star Wars Acolyte.

[01:03:22] Interesting.

[01:03:23] Star Wars also revealed that you can watch Phantom Menace on the big screen

[01:03:26] with the rest of the Sky Wars saga on May the Sky Wars.

[01:03:30] Saga Sky Wars Sky Wars Skywalker saga.

[01:03:34] Excuse me. Come on.

[01:03:35] Sky Wars.

[01:03:37] Um, about Sky Wars.

[01:03:40] So you know it's funny.

[01:03:41] So yeah, um, is all of a sudden I'm forgetting his name.

[01:03:47] Mark Bernardin.

[01:03:47] Mark Bernardin, uh, like he posted something on Twitter saying like, am I going

[01:03:52] to go watch all nine movies in theater?

[01:03:54] I can't sit through that.

[01:03:55] And then I remember that I watched all like 12 of the event of the MCU movies

[01:04:01] in theater and remembered, OK, maybe I can't sit through all these movies again.

[01:04:06] I don't know.

[01:04:08] Like I don't remember the last I want to say maybe it was just like when they

[01:04:14] first came out that I saw him in the theaters because I could have sworn

[01:04:17] should you saw them in the theaters as well.

[01:04:19] But I don't think they've been in the theater since they came out.

[01:04:22] Have they?

[01:04:22] Mm hmm.

[01:04:23] No, I don't think so.

[01:04:24] When he was even born for Phantom Menace.

[01:04:27] Yeah, I know.

[01:04:27] That's why I'm like, I don't think he did.

[01:04:29] So it's like, so wow, that might be something.

[01:04:32] But he usually sees the Star Wars stuff with his dad.

[01:04:35] So he can do that.

[01:04:36] I remember I remember seeing, um, I remember we had tickets to see

[01:04:40] the Phantom Menace at like three in the morning.

[01:04:44] Oh, wow.

[01:04:44] You know, the night of its release.

[01:04:46] So a bunch of us were just drinking Karellis and Pocardi, you know,

[01:04:50] leading up to it.

[01:04:51] I remember like all my friends were outside for a quick, yeah, outside

[01:04:55] for a quick second and I like hit me that I was going to go see like

[01:04:59] a new Star Wars movie in theaters.

[01:05:02] I remember sitting there like cracking open a corona and just like tears

[01:05:05] coming down my face because I was so like nerd happy that there's

[01:05:10] a new Star Wars movie coming.

[01:05:13] I'm just like, oh my God, it's so cool.

[01:05:15] I'm finally seeing a new Star Wars movie.

[01:05:17] James just made me feel very, very, very young and I'm not young.

[01:05:21] So it's like, right?

[01:05:23] I wasn't old enough to drink when I went to go see it.

[01:05:27] I didn't say I was.

[01:05:28] I didn't say you had to be old enough about him just saying we were drinking,

[01:05:31] you know, I was old enough to have already gone through the oh, let's

[01:05:35] let's sneak in alcohol to the movie theater.

[01:05:39] I was over that.

[01:05:41] By the time they came out.

[01:05:42] So that tells you something.

[01:05:45] I don't know.

[01:05:46] Are you guys going to go see the movies, whether it's all or some in theater?

[01:05:50] I don't know.

[01:05:51] I don't know. I've already seen them in the theaters.

[01:05:53] It's I feel like I've already seen them since like I've already had that experience.

[01:05:57] Yeah, I've seen every Star Wars movie in theaters.

[01:06:01] The original trilogy, not so much in their original runs.

[01:06:04] I mean, I watched those when the when they did the special editions.

[01:06:09] Yeah, I saw the remastered and all that.

[01:06:12] Yeah, I saw those in theaters.

[01:06:14] And then obviously I saw the prequels and the sequel trilogies all in theater.

[01:06:17] So yeah, I saw them all in theaters.

[01:06:21] Originally when their original run.

[01:06:23] I was trying to think I'm like, I've seen.

[01:06:27] Oh, that's right.

[01:06:28] I think it was like two May the fourths ago

[01:06:31] when they were showing it at the Crest Theater here in Sacramento.

[01:06:35] We went out with a shout out to Tim Donaldson, you know,

[01:06:38] one of the original Jawas from New Hope.

[01:06:42] He was there and Alan Fernandez, Rest in Peace, Alan Fernandez,

[01:06:45] one of the original sand people.

[01:06:48] So we went and saw the movie with them.

[01:06:49] And that was a fun experience.

[01:06:51] I'm sorry, Aaron Watson just posted something about the old hardly heroes.

[01:07:01] I'm sure I'm sure I know exactly who he's talking about.

[01:07:04] I'm sure he loves that we mentioned their name because it's like

[01:07:09] they said our name.

[01:07:11] No big deal. They don't own it anymore.

[01:07:13] Anyway, let's keep going.

[01:07:15] They don't own the comic book rights anymore.

[01:07:16] They still own the rights to if they ever do a podcast again.

[01:07:21] That is not factual, actually, because I know who has the trademark.

[01:07:26] Let's keep it going.

[01:07:27] We got more Star Wars news.

[01:07:29] Domo Origato, Mr. Three P.O.

[01:07:31] Domo Origato, Mr. Three P.O.

[01:07:34] Domo.

[01:07:34] Doodoo.

[01:07:35] Domo.

[01:07:35] Doodoo.

[01:07:37] Star Wars celebration is returning in 2025.

[01:07:41] And this time, the beloved convention is taking place in Japan.

[01:07:45] Interesting.

[01:07:46] A new poster was shared for the event this week.

[01:07:48] In addition to a promo teaser, there's a lot of things to celebrate next year,

[01:07:53] including the 20th anniversary of Star Wars Revenge of the Sith

[01:07:56] and the 10th anniversary of Star Wars Force Awakens.

[01:08:00] Wow. That's not.

[01:08:02] Not to mention all the exciting upcoming projects from Lucasfilm.

[01:08:07] I remember going to Star Wars celebration before the Force Awakens came out

[01:08:13] and they rolled out BB-8, like live on the stage and everybody was losing their minds.

[01:08:17] I'm like, what the hell?

[01:08:19] So that's crazy.

[01:08:20] 10 years already.

[01:08:20] Wow.

[01:08:21] No, that feels that it doesn't feel like Force Awakens came out 10 years ago.

[01:08:25] No, not at all.

[01:08:27] I do have a that's noopsis.

[01:08:30] It's a space synopsis.

[01:08:32] That's noopsis.

[01:08:33] It's a space synopsis.

[01:08:35] Synopsis.

[01:08:37] What's that in reference to?

[01:08:40] That's good.

[01:08:41] That actually, again, they're really good one, James.

[01:08:44] Star Wars Celebration will come to Makuhari,

[01:08:48] messy in Chiba, Japan, April 18th through 20th, 2025.

[01:08:52] Star Wars Celebration is truly a once in a lifetime experience.

[01:08:56] Unless you go to it four times like me, where you were in memories,

[01:09:01] our made families are brought together, old friends are reunited and new

[01:09:05] friendships forge all in the setting of the ever-evolving Star Wars Galaxy.

[01:09:12] Tickets for the event will go on sale Thursday, May the second at 4

[01:09:16] p.m. Pacific Standard Time, because that's the only time that makes sense to me.

[01:09:20] Yeah.

[01:09:20] Yeah, I'll let everybody else do the math.

[01:09:23] Six p.m. my time.

[01:09:24] All right.

[01:09:25] Who's going to Japan?

[01:09:25] Let's do it.

[01:09:26] You know, it'd be great as if like we're a big enough media, like, you know,

[01:09:31] presence that we could just go to these events.

[01:09:33] Yeah.

[01:09:34] Yeah, that would be amazing.

[01:09:35] I know we should work on that.

[01:09:37] We got a month.

[01:09:38] Let's make it happen.

[01:09:39] Of course.

[01:09:40] Yeah, yeah, because I'm I'm I'm definitely I can definitely afford to go to Japan.

[01:09:46] Are OK glass half empty.

[01:09:48] Your half empty.

[01:09:51] God, I mean, speaking of that in Jedi mind tricks news.

[01:09:56] Are you kidding me?

[01:09:56] Really? After all these years, Star Wars fans will officially be able

[01:10:02] to stock their refrigerators with blue milk.

[01:10:04] Oh, our introduction to blue milk came in Star Wars.

[01:10:08] A new hope at Aunt Baru's kitchen table while Luke Skywalker was whining

[01:10:12] about being stuck on Tatooine.

[01:10:13] But I want to go to the station and about the frickin blue milk.

[01:10:17] I mean, yeah, I want to go to Toshi station and get some power converters.

[01:10:22] You're freaking blue now.

[01:10:25] Drink your blue milk and shut up.

[01:10:28] The official much I paid for that blue milk.

[01:10:30] You sit up and drink that blue milk.

[01:10:32] You're Aunt Baru milk to banter herself.

[01:10:38] You will drink that blue milk and like it.

[01:10:41] Do you know how hard it is to milk a Bampa?

[01:10:45] The official press release says true move who actually makes really good

[01:10:49] chocolate milk true move blue true move blue milk is 1 percent low fat milk

[01:10:54] and features natural vanilla flavor and blue color for a truly galactic

[01:10:58] delicious experience for your family will enjoy.

[01:11:02] How is it natural vanilla flavor?

[01:11:04] Are they just feeding the cows?

[01:11:06] Oh, well, then why I think what they're what they're saying.

[01:11:08] Now, I think what they're saying is they're putting actual vanilla and not

[01:11:11] beaver ass. Oh, OK.

[01:11:13] Yeah. Imitation vanilla is beaver.

[01:11:15] You be here.

[01:11:16] Imitation vanilla is is beaver ass gland excretion.

[01:11:20] Stop it. It is.

[01:11:21] Why do you know things like me and Jackie forever?

[01:11:25] Anytime we get imitation vanilla, we call it beaver ass.

[01:11:29] Oh, gosh.

[01:11:31] Those poor beavers.

[01:11:32] Yeah, I guess it's a lot of times when they all we want to do is make those

[01:11:37] fricking, you know, walls.

[01:11:39] Yeah, just want to have dams and people are going to be milking them.

[01:11:43] What I want to know is who excreted

[01:11:46] gland juice from a beaver and smelled it and that smells like vanilla.

[01:11:51] Let's put it in our milk.

[01:11:52] Let me put it in my drinks.

[01:11:54] Right. So I think when they say natural vanilla flavoring is because

[01:11:57] they're actually using vanilla and not beaver ass. Yeah.

[01:11:59] I just I don't understand why you like OK, I understand adding like

[01:12:04] chocolate syrup to milk, making it taste chocolatey.

[01:12:08] And I'm like, I even understand the whole strawberry thing.

[01:12:10] It's disgusting, but I understand the strawberry thing.

[01:12:12] I love strawberry milk.

[01:12:14] We have strawberry milk here.

[01:12:15] OK, well, whatever.

[01:12:17] But blue milk and it's and then they put vanilla in it.

[01:12:22] I just oh my god, I just you know, the world's burning.

[01:12:26] I'm just going to get some marshmallows.

[01:12:28] Maybe maybe I'll get blue marshmallows. Oh my god.

[01:12:31] While blue milk in the Star Wars universe comes from Banthas.

[01:12:35] This true move blue milk is just good old fashioned cow milk

[01:12:40] that comes from cows with blue food coloring.

[01:12:43] Don't cry. True moves.

[01:12:44] Star Wars blue milk will spill into stores on April 17th, 2024.

[01:12:50] It probably has coconut oil in it.

[01:12:52] Are they dying the cows blue?

[01:12:54] What is happening? I know.

[01:12:55] Now, if they can get blue milk by dying cows blue, I might drink it.

[01:13:01] I mean, that's how we get chocolate milk is they they they die.

[01:13:03] Chalk cows brown. Yeah.

[01:13:05] What do you mean you cows?

[01:13:07] What do you mean you?

[01:13:10] I like my blue milk better.

[01:13:12] But oh yeah. Where's where's your blue milk?

[01:13:15] I haven't made in a while, but Frey, you're not allowed to have my blue milk,

[01:13:19] though, is have coconut oil in it.

[01:13:20] No, it uses coconut milk.

[01:13:22] Yeah, I can't.

[01:13:25] But it's really good.

[01:13:26] I mean, hey, guess what?

[01:13:28] There's a substitute with blue milk cartons right in front of us.

[01:13:31] But but it's it's it's not as fruity and tasty as as mine is.

[01:13:37] That is not the point.

[01:13:41] We all know yours is fruity, fruity or tastier.

[01:13:44] Oh, all my milk is fruity.

[01:13:46] I was going to say, I don't think we're going for the fruity taste in this.

[01:13:49] They're going for what they're doing is so if you ever even

[01:13:53] you guys have had red velvet, right?

[01:13:55] And it's supposed to have a chocolate taste.

[01:13:56] Red velvet cake.

[01:13:56] Yeah, red velvet.

[01:13:57] It's just basically chocolate died right.

[01:13:59] They have blue velvet and it's vanilla.

[01:14:02] Oh, God, it's a vanilla flavor.

[01:14:03] So yeah, I totally get why they're doing it.

[01:14:06] But you can make anything you can make any color tastes like vanilla.

[01:14:11] I mean, just yeah, the I know I don't get.

[01:14:14] And vanilla beans are like really dark brown.

[01:14:17] I know Jackie actually wants to make her own vanilla,

[01:14:20] because apparently it's not hard to make your own vanilla.

[01:14:22] Yeah, no, it's not.

[01:14:23] Yeah, you just put vanilla bean inside of vodka and let it reduce.

[01:14:28] Is a color when it comes to food is color a big thing for you guys?

[01:14:33] Like it doesn't seem like it is for me.

[01:14:35] But like when somebody goes like we just had St.

[01:14:37] Patrick's Day and saying, oh, let's have a green beer.

[01:14:39] Like when I when somebody puts a green beer in front of me, I'm like,

[01:14:42] I don't have a problem with that.

[01:14:44] I don't have.

[01:14:44] Yeah, I don't have a problem with that.

[01:14:46] I know Jackie doesn't like anything that that doesn't occur in nature.

[01:14:50] So if it's like a color that isn't natural, she does not like it.

[01:14:54] So green beer is not her thing because her whole thing is like, you know,

[01:14:59] like if something is a color that a food doesn't produce,

[01:15:02] she does not want to eat it.

[01:15:04] Yeah, there's something like in like primal in your brain

[01:15:07] where like, don't eat that.

[01:15:08] I mean, you're not 100% wrong because so many colors just come from

[01:15:12] like, like for example, red comes from like beetles.

[01:15:15] Yeah. Oh, yeah.

[01:15:16] Well, purple comes from or used to come from snails.

[01:15:19] So they crush snail shells to make purple that they put in the dyed fabric.

[01:15:26] And that's how that's royalty worth.

[01:15:27] And it always smelled a little of snail.

[01:15:30] What the heck?

[01:15:31] Where are you guys getting your food colorings?

[01:15:33] Beaver gold and snail James, James, James, James, your problem is

[01:15:38] this is the way it's done.

[01:15:39] You just don't know how it's done.

[01:15:41] You don't know whatever it's whatever.

[01:15:43] You guys are spoiling my blue milk.

[01:15:46] Says the channel that puts a powder drink as a sponsor.

[01:15:49] Hey, my powder drinks don't have any dyes or food coloring in it, though.

[01:15:53] That's why it looks all milky and weird.

[01:15:55] I think it's the answer to the question about different colored food.

[01:15:59] I'm not.

[01:16:00] I mean, I don't really have a like an aversion to oh, this is a different color.

[01:16:06] Like when remember the catch ups when they had all the different colored catch ups.

[01:16:10] Yeah, I tried them all because I was like, OK, I don't care.

[01:16:13] It's ketchup.

[01:16:14] I don't care.

[01:16:14] It's purple. I don't care if it's green.

[01:16:16] They didn't taste as good because when you add a like coloring food coloring in it

[01:16:22] or a coloring plate like thing, it does change the flavor.

[01:16:26] Even if it doesn't have any because it changes the chemical compound of the thing.

[01:16:30] And so sometimes coloring will make it bitter, too.

[01:16:33] Like yeah, there are certain things I don't like to add color to either.

[01:16:36] Yeah. So but I mean like I'm willing to try it.

[01:16:39] Am I going to go out and purchase it?

[01:16:41] Hell no, because I'll try it and then I'll be like, OK, I tried that.

[01:16:44] And I won't ever drink it again.

[01:16:46] So I might get it just so I can drink it on the show.

[01:16:49] There you go. You have to.

[01:16:51] Unless you're lactose intolerant, then maybe let's not experience that.

[01:16:54] Get some lactate.

[01:16:55] Like every other Hispanic in the world, we just like you hit 30

[01:16:58] and you become lactose intolerant.

[01:16:59] That's just because of all of the cheese.

[01:17:03] It might be it.

[01:17:05] Cheese is in everything.

[01:17:07] Like, and you know what?

[01:17:08] I'm there for it.

[01:17:08] I love Mexican food.

[01:17:11] But seriously, there is cheese in everything.

[01:17:14] Yeah, I am not lactose intolerant.

[01:17:16] Like I said, it is.

[01:17:18] Yeah. And he just pops lactates and still eats cheese.

[01:17:21] Like I said, it's a thing with Latinos.

[01:17:23] Like for some reason we hit 30.

[01:17:24] Like you love milk and cheese, then you hit 30 and you become lactose

[01:17:28] intolerant and it's like, I can't eat this all.

[01:17:31] Yeah, that's true. Yeah.

[01:17:33] Yeah, I didn't know that.

[01:17:34] Yeah. You get bubble.

[01:17:35] It is. Yeah.

[01:17:36] It is like a common thing with like with like Hispanics

[01:17:39] that we become lactose intolerant 30 and on.

[01:17:43] Remember to dye your eggs this weekend.

[01:17:44] Change the color of those hard boiled eggs.

[01:17:47] Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

[01:17:49] Yeah. Yeah.

[01:17:49] I believe it was the great 20th century philosopher that once said,

[01:17:53] you make me sick like strawberries quick

[01:17:57] ever last circa 1990s.

[01:18:01] Sandra and Jeff, I wish I was going to Sac Animae

[01:18:04] in Roseville this weekend.

[01:18:05] I am going to be filming a film down in Merced on

[01:18:10] on Saturday and then Sunday is Easter.

[01:18:12] And I'm going to be with my parents.

[01:18:14] I'll be at a five year old's softball game

[01:18:17] because that's my life.

[01:18:19] Is he's exactly.

[01:18:20] Let's move on to the next story here, guys.

[01:18:22] And James, you have to read this one

[01:18:24] because you're the only one who's probably excited about this.

[01:18:26] Ah, biscuits.

[01:18:27] We got some keepy upy news.

[01:18:30] Oh, yeah.

[01:18:31] Is it for a yummy?

[01:18:32] This is for me and Watson.

[01:18:34] New new episodes of Blue.

[01:18:37] We are set to premiere in April.

[01:18:39] Super fucking excited, including the.

[01:18:42] Wow, you said blue and a bad word in the same sentence.

[01:18:46] How would blue feel about that?

[01:18:48] The longest episode I know my my vocabulary is from the dunny

[01:18:53] because that's what Australians say for toilet.

[01:18:56] The longest episode of the beloved series to date,

[01:19:00] the 28 minute episode, The Sign Home Chef

[01:19:04] announced their first ever family menu collaboration

[01:19:07] with Bluey.

[01:19:08] The special collaboration will feature

[01:19:10] Bluey themed recipes as well as surprise

[01:19:14] collectibles every week through April.

[01:19:17] I am so excited for this.

[01:19:19] Give me some home chef as for the menu offerings.

[01:19:22] They're also being inspired by Bluey.

[01:19:26] Who else is pumped for some Bluey home chef?

[01:19:29] Yes, it's one of those meal kit systems

[01:19:32] where you order the meals online for, you can say,

[01:19:35] one people, two people, three people.

[01:19:37] Four, five people, six people, seven people more.

[01:19:39] So we're going to play it.

[01:19:41] But then they deliver all the ingredients to your house

[01:19:43] and then here's some instructions.

[01:19:46] Then you cook the meal.

[01:19:47] OK, oh, so OK.

[01:19:48] All right. So it's like they just give you

[01:19:50] they pre like give you all the stuff.

[01:19:52] Hey, this is how much you need.

[01:19:53] Yes, you don't have to.

[01:19:54] OK, all right.

[01:19:55] Did you just mansplain mansplain like fucking blue aprons?

[01:20:00] Well, not blue apron because this is home chef.

[01:20:03] By the way, Blue Apron would have been an easy collaboration

[01:20:06] for Bluey.

[01:20:07] Blue Apron seems like that was a missed opportunity.

[01:20:10] Blue Apron fucked it up on that one.

[01:20:12] I know you know who outbid him?

[01:20:14] Home chef. Home chef.

[01:20:16] The Bluey themed recipes will change throughout the month

[01:20:20] additionally as an enhancement to the experienced customers

[01:20:23] who choose a Bluey inspired meal will find a surprise Bluey

[01:20:27] toy inside the box.

[01:20:28] There's a different collectible each week like a happy meal

[01:20:31] delivered to your house.

[01:20:33] All family menu meals will arrive in a special interactive box

[01:20:37] throughout the month. OK, so I have questions about that.

[01:20:41] Since OK, so let's let's say Jamez does this right.

[01:20:45] He has home.

[01:20:46] He gets home chef.

[01:20:47] He decides to do the Bluey thing and he you know,

[01:20:50] do you get one toy or because you have three children?

[01:20:53] Do you get three toys?

[01:20:55] Oh, good question.

[01:20:56] It might depend on how many meals you buy for the week.

[01:21:01] If you buy one meal like when we get our home chef,

[01:21:04] we do three meals for the week.

[01:21:06] Wait, do you really do home chef?

[01:21:08] Hell yeah, we do home chef. What?

[01:21:09] You know, we're on the Bluey chain, bro.

[01:21:11] But James is like we've been doing home chef because we heard

[01:21:14] about this Bluey thing like two years ago.

[01:21:15] So we knew right they told us two years they were going to do it.

[01:21:18] So they got they got us for that.

[01:21:22] No, we do the home chef.

[01:21:23] We like home chef.

[01:21:24] We do it mainly because we have kids and it's hard to run out

[01:21:29] and actually feed ourselves.

[01:21:30] So that is what get food delivered to us, but it's good.

[01:21:33] I was just imagining if they did just do one,

[01:21:36] how many revolts you would have in your house?

[01:21:40] Right. I'm so excited for this because you would want the toy.

[01:21:44] I'm actually curious, Jamez.

[01:21:46] So before the whole Bluey announcement of all of the like

[01:21:51] home delivery meal kits and all that kind of stuff,

[01:21:55] all the ones that are out there, what made you choose home chef?

[01:21:59] Whatever. I really feel like home chef needs to sponsor us as well now

[01:22:03] after this. Right. I know.

[01:22:05] I need a home home chef code right now. Nerdington.

[01:22:09] Nerdington. Maybe we'll approach them.

[01:22:10] But I mean, like, like honestly, this I'm actually curious about this

[01:22:14] because it's like there's Hello Fresh.

[01:22:15] There's Hela. There's Blue Apron, obviously home chef.

[01:22:18] There's like a thousand different meal kits that are out there.

[01:22:21] Yeah. It's like factor.

[01:22:23] There's like tons of stuff.

[01:22:24] So like what made you choose home chef over all of the other ones that are out there?

[01:22:28] And it just happens to be now Bluey is a thing.

[01:22:30] So I'm sure you're like fucking giddy, like a schoolgirl.

[01:22:32] But I mean, like.

[01:22:34] Giddy, like an Australian shepherd dog.

[01:22:37] Yeah. I think we tried a couple different ones and they were OK.

[01:22:40] Some of them kept getting our orders wrong.

[01:22:43] Like here's the order, but we're going to forget

[01:22:46] like the chicken that goes in the chicken meal.

[01:22:48] Oh, wow. What? Oh, yeah.

[01:22:50] All right. Unpack everything.

[01:22:51] Let's make dinner because we only have 25 minutes.

[01:22:54] All of a sudden, no chicken like what?

[01:22:56] So we got rid of that.

[01:22:57] But I like home chef.

[01:22:58] Their food is good. It's easy.

[01:23:00] You know, it's well proportioned for an average person.

[01:23:03] So it forces me to be an average person eating.

[01:23:06] But it's good.

[01:23:08] I like it. Meals are like take maybe 35 minutes.

[01:23:11] I think some of them said like they don't take very long to get done.

[01:23:15] I'm all into it. Anyway, here's some of the recipes.

[01:23:18] So they have a turkey and bean chili by chili.

[01:23:21] That's the mom's name. Chili.

[01:23:25] Bandit and chili's chicken soup.

[01:23:27] That's the parents.

[01:23:28] Bingo is not too spicy.

[01:23:30] Takeaway salmon.

[01:23:32] The pizza girls. All right.

[01:23:35] I like it. Bandits take away pork egg roll in a bowl.

[01:23:38] Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.

[01:23:40] I'm down with this.

[01:23:41] Home chef customers can place orders for the bluey themed recipes now.

[01:23:47] You hear that double A.

[01:23:49] You better be not typing in the chat.

[01:23:51] You better be ordering your home chef or apparently graveyard did HelloFresh for a while.

[01:23:56] Yeah, HelloFresh, but his was like a Halloween horror theme.

[01:24:00] Yeah, I don't know.

[01:24:01] Like zombie. Do they do that?

[01:24:03] Zombie meals.

[01:24:03] It was HelloFresh, but it was cabbering.

[01:24:07] Dude, what if what if that's our stick?

[01:24:09] Right. We do a food delivery service, but it's like horror themed.

[01:24:14] I'm sure gravy like you can do.

[01:24:17] You can have nerdy packages.

[01:24:18] You can do a horror package.

[01:24:20] You can be like superhero packet super villain package.

[01:24:24] Yeah, OK, let's make it.

[01:24:25] Yeah, so then like the super.

[01:24:27] No, the Batman one, because Batman is just a regular dude,

[01:24:30] would just be like steamed chicken and brown rice.

[01:24:32] Broccoli just plain because he has no time to season his food.

[01:24:38] That's good.

[01:24:40] I don't think James.

[01:24:40] I don't think James has noticed the the banner that's up yet.

[01:24:44] He's just ignoring it, I think.

[01:24:46] Yeah, reading, forcing to read.

[01:24:48] But like, you know what I mean?

[01:24:50] Like a zombie brain meatloaf, something like that.

[01:24:52] Dude, we should do this.

[01:24:53] Yeah, somebody trade market.

[01:24:55] This is good. And then we'll sponsor ourselves.

[01:24:57] Don't sponsor ourselves.

[01:24:59] Exactly. Sponsor by by by nerd meals.

[01:25:04] Yeah, use code Nerding 10 get 10 10 percent off.

[01:25:08] And then we'll give a code for a graveyard and pot out at night.

[01:25:11] But it'll only be nine percent off.

[01:25:15] Just to be a dick.

[01:25:16] No, I was going to say, here's what would be really fun.

[01:25:19] So we could have one like set for like, you know, people trying to like,

[01:25:23] you know, lose weight or work out and try to, you know, build them.

[01:25:27] We can call it nerdy, dirty, curvy.

[01:25:31] Nerdy, dirty and curvy.

[01:25:33] I like that. Yeah.

[01:25:35] That could just be added in with all of the rest of the merch that we have

[01:25:39] because, ladies and gentlemen, transition perfectly executed.

[01:25:43] We got merch people.

[01:25:47] We got merch people.

[01:25:49] We got a hat for $35 that the the longs need a distance nerding hat.

[01:25:55] It's $35, 30 each.

[01:25:57] If you can buy multiple hats, we were just talking to some people.

[01:26:00] We may get more hats.

[01:26:01] We may be getting some more hats.

[01:26:03] But until then, we have shirts.

[01:26:05] We got two different shirts.

[01:26:07] We got our logo shirt, distance nerding, or we got our character

[01:26:10] shirt with Unipool and Jameth 5000 on it.

[01:26:14] All you got to do is DM us at distance nerding.

[01:26:39] to hook us up and help us out, hop on on X Twitter right now

[01:26:44] and tag Home Chef and say that you really want them to sponsor us

[01:26:49] and go and listen to the 20 minute plug that we just gave them on our show.

[01:26:52] Right. Yeah.

[01:26:56] I like it. That's so funny.

[01:26:58] I just thought I mean, I honestly wanted to know

[01:27:01] because I hadn't ever heard of Home Chef.

[01:27:03] I hadn't.

[01:27:03] And yeah, so that's why I was like, what the heck's Home Chef?

[01:27:06] Well, that's kind of why you saw me get a little excited at it

[01:27:08] because I was just like, well, James is already using Home Chef.

[01:27:13] And it's like, well, OK, I've never heard of Home Chef.

[01:27:17] And I know all the other brands that are out there.

[01:27:19] So it's like, if you're if you already chose to use Home Chef,

[01:27:22] it's like, why did you choose that over Blue Apron or Hello Fresh?

[01:27:27] He gave us the answer already.

[01:27:28] But I mean, like, yeah, like that kind of it kind of like it intrigued me

[01:27:32] to know that a brand that I've never heard of that my friend is you already using.

[01:27:35] So it's like, right? No, I totally get it.

[01:27:38] I'm on board with this.

[01:27:39] Everybody tell your friends, tell your enemies, have them all

[01:27:44] hashtag like at all sorts of things Home Chef.

[01:27:48] So and get us a sponsorship.

[01:27:50] We want to do that.

[01:27:52] Yeah, just at Home Chef and do hashtag Home Chef sponsor, Dianne, please.

[01:27:57] Yes. I like it.

[01:28:00] Let's make it happen.

[01:28:01] Absolutely. So ladies and gentlemen, let's talk schedule.

[01:28:05] Next week is going to be our last week at this time slot.

[01:28:08] So guys, if you have been enjoying this time slot, I would,

[01:28:12] you know, we would continue doing this time slot, but I go back to work.

[01:28:16] So Mondays game on with Phil from eight to 12.

[01:28:22] Currently, I've been doing pretty much game streams almost every day

[01:28:25] just to kind of get through it all and all that right now.

[01:28:28] I am currently playing Shadow of War.

[01:28:31] I finished Shadow of Mordor yesterday.

[01:28:32] You finished it?

[01:28:33] Yeah, oh my God, it's so good.

[01:28:35] Bravo. That is that you need to put that on your resume.

[01:28:40] I know, right?

[01:28:41] I that's the kind of thing my resume will look at it and they'll be like,

[01:28:45] you finished that game.

[01:28:46] Yeah. And Shadow of War is like even harder because the AI, they up the AI in it.

[01:28:52] So like, even at the very beginning,

[01:28:54] like you think it's hard playing against the orcs in Shadow of War

[01:28:58] and Shadow of Mordor and Shadow of War, they learn your tactics.

[01:29:02] Right. And it tells you to hateful.

[01:29:04] Yeah, they tell you to.

[01:29:05] So like, you know, there's a move when you get high enough in Shadow of Mordor

[01:29:09] that when you you can jump over an orc in order to to get to the next part.

[01:29:16] Right.

[01:29:17] The captains will learn the way that you fight.

[01:29:20] So if you do those jumps a lot, it'll learn and it grabs you midair

[01:29:23] and throws you and it tells you orc tactics have changed or

[01:29:28] Uduk tactics have have learned your your tactics.

[01:29:32] Right. So now you have to like change the way you fight them

[01:29:35] because they like have learned the way you fight.

[01:29:37] It's it sucks.

[01:29:38] But they also added like they do.

[01:29:41] He literally does.

[01:29:42] I was watching you play and like a window.

[01:29:45] It's deep in frustration.

[01:29:46] I'm sorry. Go ahead.

[01:29:47] The the tactics they had was like, hey, we're about to die.

[01:29:51] Let's run away. Like I've never.

[01:29:53] Oh, my God, it pissed me off so much.

[01:29:55] I've never seen your enemies that you're fighting just decide to run away.

[01:30:00] Yeah. So it got it upset me so much.

[01:30:03] There was one dude who I specifically needed to

[01:30:07] to control him so that I could have him fight another captain

[01:30:11] because like later on in the game, you get to do that.

[01:30:13] Right. So I needed to like take over his mind so I can have him

[01:30:17] fight another captain and he kept just running away every time

[01:30:20] I got to the point where I could grab him.

[01:30:21] Right. And it was like there's like a thousand orbs around me

[01:30:24] and I can't grab him long enough to like to get him under my influence.

[01:30:27] I'm just like after a while, it just pissed me off and I just killed him.

[01:30:30] I was like, fuck this guy. I'm not I'm not I'm not going to do this.

[01:30:34] I'm going to I'm going to go and find another guy to take over his place.

[01:30:39] Sandra and Jeff said that you need to have your kids there, James,

[01:30:43] because David McCormack and Melanie Zanetti will be at Sac Anime Summer.

[01:30:48] I don't know. I guess they're bluey related.

[01:30:50] I would assume. Yeah, that's the band and chili, the parents.

[01:30:56] So James, you need to which it's funny because they they never met in person

[01:31:02] until like, you know, because they're in Australia.

[01:31:04] They never met in person until they went on the like tonight show.

[01:31:07] And they're like, oh, hey, nice to meet you.

[01:31:09] Like they never met in person until two years after the show.

[01:31:12] But I mean, that's like something that would happen, right?

[01:31:15] I mean there because it dulled their voice is so you don't have to be

[01:31:18] in the same place. Absolutely.

[01:31:19] If we've learned nothing from Marie, we've learned one thing from Marie.

[01:31:23] It is that. Yeah.

[01:31:24] Yeah, you're not happy in the same place.

[01:31:27] They don't do ensemble cast anymore.

[01:31:29] We've learned that from a lot of our voice actor friends.

[01:31:32] So moving on Tuesdays, the download the show you're watching right now

[01:31:36] typically goes right now.

[01:31:37] It's been going from 10 to 12.

[01:31:39] We're going to be moving back to next week is the last time

[01:31:42] that we're going to be doing the 10 to 12 show.

[01:31:44] And then we'll be going back to the 6 30 to 8 30.

[01:31:47] Thursdays, the build from six to eight where I build Lego

[01:31:51] and we talk to guests and have nerdy conversations and fun stuff.

[01:31:56] All the conversations have been great the last couple of weeks.

[01:32:00] You know, the point that we never got to the bracket.

[01:32:03] But see, that happens a lot, though.

[01:32:05] Like it happens a lot now this week is oops all brackets.

[01:32:08] We're going to be doing nothing but a bracket episode this week

[01:32:10] just because our guests this week had to reschedule.

[01:32:12] So and just nobody took the time slots on this a good week for us

[01:32:17] to to just do brackets.

[01:32:20] If that is given that graveyard can be on the show because his

[01:32:24] work his work has been screwing him over.

[01:32:26] I mean, I'm not screwing him over to give him work.

[01:32:28] But I mean, yeah, so that's good.

[01:32:30] You need to break it up.

[01:32:31] Interfers.

[01:32:32] You need to break it up a little bit.

[01:32:34] I really enjoyed that conversation you had with Kalani.

[01:32:39] Yeah, that was fun from Sky Hoshi.

[01:32:42] Yeah, yeah.

[01:32:43] Pure magic entertainment.

[01:32:45] Yeah, there's a production.

[01:32:46] Oh, yeah.

[01:32:48] Is it awesome?

[01:32:48] No production.

[01:32:49] Awesome conversation was good.

[01:32:50] Yeah.

[01:32:51] Oh, they I mean, he was a blast and like some of the actors

[01:32:55] were in the thread.

[01:32:56] It was a fun time.

[01:32:57] It felt kind of flash mobby but like digitally.

[01:33:00] Yeah, which I mean their movie kind of felt like a flash mob

[01:33:04] anyways, especially at the con right.

[01:33:07] Yeah.

[01:33:07] And like ramen.

[01:33:09] I don't know.

[01:33:09] I was like, I'm not like I'm not a huge ramen fan.

[01:33:13] I like ramen, but I'm just not.

[01:33:14] It's not something that I'm like, I'm going to pick wrong

[01:33:16] and every time.

[01:33:17] So and then like you what was it?

[01:33:19] James, you're talking about the Sky Hoshi pink ramen.

[01:33:24] Sell that.

[01:33:25] I would totally buy that.

[01:33:26] There you go.

[01:33:27] So sorry.

[01:33:28] Hey, we're almost we're almost a pluggable merge

[01:33:30] opportunity.

[01:33:31] So let's plug that right there.

[01:33:32] So yes.

[01:33:33] Yeah.

[01:33:33] Speaking of that, let's get into the pluggables.

[01:33:36] Frey, give us your plugs.

[01:33:37] Where are all the things you do outside of the distance
