00:00:22
Audio, audio. We have got audio.
00:00:31
Did I hit record for the show? Yes, I did.
00:00:39
We're almost there. Look at it's time for a podcast
00:00:44
I guess. That's I just, I just, I just
00:00:57
use the soundboard in Streamlabs right now.
00:01:02
James, you know you have a soundboard, right?
00:01:05
I do know I have a soundboard and I stay away from.
00:01:08
And you react. There's a little soundboard in
00:01:09
there for you. Yeah.
00:01:12
You know, what I need to do is make a legit sound board that
00:01:18
like a web sound board specifically for Matt Aguilar to
00:01:23
use so he can start messing with Kobe.
00:01:27
Could do you ever hear him like how sad he gets when he's like,
00:01:30
he's like. I wish I had a sound board.
00:01:33
And every, every time he. Hits.
00:01:35
Stream Yard. Every time he comes and watches
00:01:37
our show, he's like, you have the best sound board in the
00:01:39
industry. So it's like I want to make him
00:01:41
a sound board just to mess with Kobe.
00:01:45
That'd be good and just send it to the producers, let them
00:01:49
install it and let him tell them.
00:01:52
So, so basically what it would be is I would send it would be
00:01:55
in a browser and he would be able to like just use it in a
00:01:58
browser and they would just like play when whenever they're doing
00:02:01
anything. That's obviously super
00:02:03
dangerous. Giving giving him a soundboard,
00:02:06
yes. We like Matt to keep his job so.
00:02:10
I'm sure it would happen like 1 episode and they would like so
00:02:13
never do that again. Yeah, then Matt just disappears.
00:02:17
We're like, oops. He wouldn't, he wouldn't do
00:02:20
that. He blacks.
00:02:21
If anything, Matt would, would, would come in our chat and say,
00:02:24
hey, so I appreciate that sound board and I tried it and I got
00:02:27
in trouble. So I'm never going to use it
00:02:28
again. Oh man, let me make sure this
00:02:35
level is good. And now that we know we are
00:02:38

00:06:18
jump into the news. We've got some some Marvel news
00:06:21
to cover. So let's talk about Straight and
00:06:23
Jay Jonah. All right wonder man take 2
00:06:34
Marvel Studios is heading back to set with more wonder man
00:06:39
Disney plus has officially renewed the series for a second
00:06:43
season. Co creators Dustin Daniel Cretan
00:06:46
and Andrew Guest are both returning.
00:06:48
No premiere date set yet, but renewal confirms that Marvel and
00:06:53
Disney see a star with Wonder. Man, I like this.
00:06:58
Man, and they thought that it wasn't going to be good.
00:07:01
Like they, they really buried the show and people did not let
00:07:05
that happen. And then all the word of mouth
00:07:08
was like, this is the best show on TV.
00:07:09
Like, what the hell? And now Disney's like, yeah, we
00:07:13
we screwed up Season 2. We're green lighting it.
00:07:16
And and it was it was easily the best show so far this year on
00:07:19
TV. Exactly, But you know, to be
00:07:23
honest, it was a risk. It it paid off overall, it paid
00:07:26
off, but it was a risk. So I see the the the hesitants
00:07:31
on Marvel and Disney plus, but hey, they're now they're behind
00:07:34
it. Season 2.
00:07:35
I'm interested. I like it.
00:07:37
Yeah, and again, I'm, I'm behind so far, just all the work that
00:07:41
he's done. I am behind everything Daniel
00:07:43
Destin Cretton does. I'm so excited after seeing the
00:07:46
Spider Man trailer, man. I'm just, I'm so ready for this
00:07:49
man. So yeah, bring it on.
00:07:51
Yeah, no kidding. And he's been worrying about
00:07:53
Spider Man and Wonder Man at the same time.
00:07:55
OK, let him cook. Let him cook.
00:07:57
Absolutely. All right, next one is Mickey
00:08:02
Mouse ready for the Punisher. Oh boy, don't shoot me, don't
00:08:06
shoot. The debut poster for The
00:08:10
Punisher, One Last Kill, has been dropped.
00:08:13
The reveal comes just as Daredevil Born Again season 2
00:08:17
hits tonight well after the show.
00:08:20
It comes out after the show. Like we we worked it out with
00:08:23
Marvel and and Disney. It doesn't come out until after
00:08:26
the show. Just it actually does work that
00:08:27
way because I was, I was trying to go watch it and was like, oh,
00:08:29
it's not out yet. Damn it.
00:08:31
Because it's not out yet. We talked to him.
00:08:32
It's good. We're good.
00:08:33
So season 2 hits Disney Plus today.
00:08:36
Jon Berenthal wasted no time celebrating.
00:08:39
Welcome back Frank, even though he's not in the season 2 of The
00:08:44
Punisher Born Again. The special presentation will
00:08:48
premiere on the exact same day as Daredevil Born Again Season 2
00:08:52
finale. Nice little.
00:08:56
Nice little duck tale closing out the Daredevil season.
00:09:01
So the Punisher One Last Kill is coming to Disney Plus on May
00:09:05
12th. Interesting, I I wonder if
00:09:09
Punisher one last kill is going to be a bridge between Daredevil
00:09:12
and Spider Man. Oh, could be.
00:09:15
Yeah, so it could be. Yeah.
00:09:17
Yeah, it's like, I wonder if what they're doing here is like,
00:09:21
you know, there's going to be events that Frank is involved
00:09:24
in, like towards the end of the season of of of Daredevil.
00:09:28
And it leads into why he's got this whole situation with with
00:09:33
Spider Man in downtown New York. Well, if you think about it,
00:09:37
when when was the last time we saw Frank, he was captured by
00:09:40
Kingpin and all the theories are pointing to, you know, the the
00:09:47
mayor's going to be trying to clean up the city.
00:09:50
There may be the what is it the DODC involved in hunting down,
00:09:55
you know, vigilantes and superheroes and maybe me,
00:09:59
Punisher, just to be working for the bad guys, so to speak.
00:10:03
So we should. Speak it's possible.
00:10:06
The thing is, is that Frank hates Kingpin so much.
00:10:12
I, I, I wouldn't see Frank, you know, willingly working for, for
00:10:16
Fisk. And I mean like, you know,
00:10:19
Wilson Fisk stands for everything that that Frank
00:10:23
Castle was against. And like this this anti
00:10:26
vigilante task force that Fisk is creating, they Co opted
00:10:31
Frank's symbol and Frank was pretty pissed about that.
00:10:34
So I don't see Frank being like I'm going to help you guys even
00:10:37
though it gets to a goal. I feel like Frank is going to
00:10:39
beat the shit out of everybody just because.
00:10:41
Get out of my way. Well, just FYI, by the time we
00:10:45
go from Daredevil Born Again season 2, you know, to the
00:10:50
Punisher one shot to Spider man brand new day, there's a new
00:10:54
mayor right in place. So something, whatever happens,
00:10:58
you know, Kingpin, Mayor Kingpin is going to be gone.
00:11:01
Out of this right, right, right. So Speaking of Spider Man Brand
00:11:05
New Day, our spider rumor tingles are in OverDrive.
00:11:11
The trailer dropped and we have more questions than answers for
00:11:15
Spider Man Brand New Day. A new rumor points to a powerful
00:11:18
and creepy comic book character stepping into the lead.
00:11:22
The Hand, and it's a deep cut Spidey villain.
00:11:25
The Hand is rumored to now be under the control of Spider
00:11:30
Queen. Interesting.
00:11:32
In the comics, she's got superhuman strength and the
00:11:36
ability to control others, which makes her a dangerous puppet
00:11:40
master for an organization like The Hand.
00:11:44
Oh, that makes so much sense in the trailer.
00:11:47
Yeah, especially when in the trailer when Spider Man takes
00:11:52
the the tank. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:11:56
We're off and all of a sudden that, you know, looks like
00:11:58
somebody's jumping from person to person, right?
00:12:01
Interesting. What's going on?
00:12:02
There, that actually fits spider Queen extremely well.
00:12:05
So it's, it's funny because I was sitting there trying to
00:12:07
think like, you know, it this, this, this seems like, OK, it's
00:12:11
a new take on Mr. Negative, but rather than it being Mr.
00:12:15
Negative, it's spider Queen, which would fit so much more in
00:12:19
that universe. I, I actually like that theory.
00:12:22
I and I'm, I'm kind of excited to see how that how that plays
00:12:24
out. I'm being Mr. Positive instead
00:12:27
of Mr. Negative, and I'm gonna agree with you because does that
00:12:31
mean we're getting Daredevil and Brand New Day?
00:12:33
I think we are. Right, tacos on the table, man.
00:12:36
Tacos are totally on the table. My blind tacos are on the table.
00:12:39
Yeah, my tacos totally blind I. Like it?
00:12:43
OK, I got more Spider Man rumors.
00:12:46
Our Peter Tingle can sense a liar.
00:12:49
Mr. Daredevil. During an appearance on Jimmy
00:12:52
Kimmel, Charlie Cox was asked if he had checked out the new
00:12:55
Spider Man trailer. His response was honest and a
00:12:59
little surprising. I'm sorry I haven't seen it.
00:13:02
Which led to the follow up everyone wanted.
00:13:05
Would Daredevil show up in Spider Man's next adventure?
00:13:08
Cox didn't dance around, but he said no, I'm not in the movie.
00:13:12
But then Cox added just enough mischief, he said.
00:13:16
But I could be lying. Who knows if I'm I'm, but I'm
00:13:20
not lying. Definitely not in the movie.
00:13:23
I was in the last one. I don't know.
00:13:26
I think he's in the movie. I think it's a swerve.
00:13:28
I think it's a swerve and then another swerve, and then a
00:13:31
swerve back. And that, that's, that's my
00:13:33
issue with Charlie Cox in in this particular case is Charlie
00:13:37
Cox tends to be somebody who likes to mess with people.
00:13:40
So it's almost like, you know, he'll be like, like, I almost
00:13:44
feel like he's not in the movie, but he's creating speculation
00:13:47
just to mess with people. Yeah, and you know what's funny
00:13:51
though? In the last movie, like there
00:13:53
was no mention of Daredevil leading up to the movie.
00:13:56
All of a sudden he just shows up.
00:13:57
Right. Like, why make that connection
00:14:00
if we're not going to keep that connection going?
00:14:03
So. I, I think he's going to be
00:14:05
anyway, we'll find out when Spider Man Brand new day arrives
00:14:08
in theaters July 26th, 2026. Aw yeah, All right.
00:14:15
Speaking of dates, Marvel is on the move.
00:14:19
Disney has updated its release calendar detailing 2 Marvel
00:14:23
films while locking in dates for 2 brand new, still mysterious
00:14:28
entries in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
00:14:30
So dates always get confusing. So let me let me try to break it
00:14:34
down. 1 untitled Marvel movie that was previously scheduled
00:14:39
for February 2028 has moved to July of 2028.
00:14:43
So what was that? Four or five months difference?
00:14:46
Five months difference. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:14:48
OK, just got moved back. OK, Whatever it is, don't.
00:14:51
They didn't even announce what it was.
00:14:53
Then there's another mystery Marvel project that has been
00:14:56
dated for November 2028, which has been completely removed from
00:15:02
the calendar. But Disney also confirmed 2
00:15:05
Marvel release dates for May of 2029, which is like the
00:15:10
beginning of the summer blockbuster season, May 2029.
00:15:14
That's. Interesting 2 Marvel movies in
00:15:17
in one month. Right, right.
00:15:20
And then July, there's another movie coming in 2029, so May
00:15:24
2029 and then July 2029. So no titles have been revealed,
00:15:30
which opens the door for a lot of speculation.
00:15:33
I don't know. Few obvious ones coming to mind.
00:15:35
Maybe it's, you know, we're still what, three years from
00:15:39
from some of those. So that could be could be a new
00:15:41
Black Panther, the third Black Panther.
00:15:44
Maybe it's Blade, maybe it's, I don't know, X-Men.
00:15:48
What do you think? Do you have any?
00:15:50
I I have an idea of what I would like it to be.
00:15:56
The idea in my head, this is something that Graveyard and I
00:15:59
were were talking about a while back that if they jumped into
00:16:04
the X-Men movies and everything like that.
00:16:05
I think what would be really good, a good way to kind of like
00:16:10
both stretch but also give you a good entry into the characters,
00:16:17
is doing individual character movies for each X-Men character.
00:16:26
Oh, get. Back at least at least the first
00:16:29
class. And if you're releasing 2 movies
00:16:32
or three movies within a month, like there are five members of
00:16:34
the first class, right? So if you have already
00:16:38
introduced, say, Sadie Sync as Jean Grey because it's looking
00:16:44
more and more like she's going to be Jean Grey.
00:16:46
But I mean, like Sadie Sync is Jean Grey.
00:16:49
We've already introduced Jean Grey and kind of gotten a little
00:16:51
bit of her back story and everything like that.
00:16:53
And we all know Wolverine. We don't need to reintroduce
00:16:56
Wolverine. You know, Secret Wars has
00:17:00
already introduced Cyclops at this point.
00:17:02
Then you can like introduce all of the other characters and then
00:17:06
go into a straight X-Men Movie. And it, it's the idea is I, I
00:17:11
think later it's later this year they're releasing like the The
00:17:14
Beatles movies and like one. Yeah.
00:17:18
And it's like 2 weeks after the after each one.
00:17:21
They're going to be like different individual movies
00:17:24
based on each individual Beatle and what they were doing at each
00:17:28
like at during the the events of each movie.
00:17:30
So it's like, you know, four different movies all taking
00:17:33
place at the same time. And I think if that's
00:17:37
successful, then I think Marvel's probably going to go
00:17:40
with that formula to go with like a hey, cross genre.
00:17:43
It works here. We can do that with the X-Men
00:17:46
and then do an ensemble movie and everybody will be that much
00:17:49
more excited about it. That's an interesting take.
00:17:52
You're bold, you're bold, Sir. You're.
00:17:55
That's an uncanny opinion, and I like.
00:17:58
It I I see what you did there. I was still thinking it was
00:18:03
going to be like maybe a Fantastic Four sequel.
00:18:07
Maybe, you know, instead of first steps, it's, I don't know,
00:18:11
second step, second crawl. Who?
00:18:13
Knows second, second crawl. Or like a Shang Chi, like, who
00:18:17
are all these people that they've introduced over the last
00:18:19
few years that like, OK, let's see if we can bring them back.
00:18:22
Maybe a Doctor Strange, you know?
00:18:25
Right. And again, my, my thought is
00:18:27
more just like if they're dropping 2 movies in a month,
00:18:29
right? Like if May has two different
00:18:32
confirmed Marvel dates, then you know, I'm thinking like, Oh
00:18:37
well, you know, how do you capitalize on that kind of time?
00:18:39
You know what I mean? And honestly, like, I know we're
00:18:43
all kind of focusing on we're getting to the X-Men, but like
00:18:47
there's a lot of investment in characters that are about to
00:18:50
stay, you know, try to take center stage.
00:18:53
You know, there's Sam Wilson's Captain America or the
00:18:56
Thunderbolts. You know, there's people that
00:18:58
they're, you know, Sebastian Stan, you know, as as Bucky,
00:19:02
they're trying to hook them in to be like the staples of the
00:19:06
MCU. So why don't we try to feature
00:19:09
them a little bit more? So I don't know.
00:19:11
We'll see. We'll see, but Marvel's on the
00:19:13
move. That's all I got for Marvel
00:19:16
right now. Well, now that Marvel is moving,
00:19:20
then that just gives us a chance to talk about DC because ladies
00:19:24
and gentlemen, it is now time for watching the Watchtower I.
00:19:32
Like it? Still love that animation for
00:19:35
for the audio listeners want to check it out on on on the
00:19:39
YouTube channel because it's that's actually really cool.
00:19:43
Graphics department did a really good job.
00:19:47
OK, I'll give you that. OK.
00:19:49
He's like, no, OK, holy casting rumors, Batman.
00:19:53
Word is that Vigo Mortensen is now being eyed for a key role in
00:19:58
Matt Reeves upcoming sequel, and fans are already imagining what
00:20:02
he could bring to Gotham's next chapter.
00:20:04
Mortensen's potential offer comes after Brad Pitt, Stellan
00:20:08
Stellan, Skarsgard and Daniel Craig have been rumored to pass.
00:20:11
Pass on the role. What is that role?
00:20:14
Would we know who we think it is?
00:20:17
Well, ladies and gentlemen. Christopher Dent.
00:20:19
Yeah. That's, that's what we've been
00:20:21
talking about, right? It's supposed to be Harvey
00:20:23
Dent's dad. Right.
00:20:25
So, so I mean, we've been talking about this last couple
00:20:27
weeks and and the speculation is that it's Christopher Dent.
00:20:29
So if it's Harvey Dent's dad, again, this just kind of makes
00:20:33
it more of a, you know, they're centering on Harvey Dent and
00:20:38
kind of like the fall of the of the District Attorney and kind
00:20:40
of, you know, his relationship with his family and his wife and
00:20:44
everything like that. Again, it's all all kind of
00:20:47
deeply tied to Long Halloween, which is like all part of that
00:20:51
storyline, so. Yeah, you know, honestly, if it
00:20:56
was Viggo, I'm kind of OK with it.
00:20:59
I I like the idea of Viggo Mortensen being Harvey Dant's
00:21:02
father, either the father of the of the District Attorney.
00:21:06
As much as we think of like, Vigo is like a leading man type
00:21:10
character, but he's a good like ensemble player.
00:21:14
Yeah, I mean, he's a good supporting actor.
00:21:16
He does well as a supporting actor.
00:21:19
So, I mean, you know, will the Ranger of the North target
00:21:22
Gotham for his next adventure? I'm on board for that.
00:21:25
Right the the the the King of Gondor in Gotham.
00:21:30
I agree. Oh man.
00:21:34
All right, well, I don't have an intro and I'm trying to think of
00:21:40
something I can't figure it out. So we're just.
00:21:41
It's a plane. It's in the middle.
00:21:43
It's somewhere in the middle. Just yeah, just very, very.
00:21:46
It's mid not no, mid's bad. It's not.
00:21:49
It's very unmade. James Gunn has confirmed exactly
00:21:52
where Supergirl fits in relation to Superman and it's upcoming
00:21:55
sequel Man of Tomorrow, and it helped clarify how this
00:21:59
interconnected story is unfolding.
00:22:02
Gunn jumped onto threads and chimed in on a user's post
00:22:05
saying in between Superman and Man of Tomorrow, which is and
00:22:08
where it makes sense because that's where the movie is, takes
00:22:12
place between Superman and Man of Tomorrow.
00:22:15
Supergirl flies or stumbles or breaks through a wall, or, you
00:22:18
know, just gets extremely drunk and passes out into theaters on
00:22:23
June 26th. 2026. That's right.
00:22:29
Yeah. No, that's it's it's it's coming
00:22:32
up. It's soon.
00:22:32
And I'm so excited to watch this movie.
00:22:34
Well, it kind of tells me that James Gunn wants to do things.
00:22:39
Kind of linearly, like pretty much everything that's come out
00:22:45
in the DCU has been in sort of chronological order.
00:22:51
It has been so far, Yeah. Yeah, yeah, it has been.
00:22:53
Commandos Superman. What else has come out?
00:22:58
You know, Green Lantern's just going to be stuck in there now.
00:23:01
Supergirl. Yeah.
00:23:03
Oh, Peacemaker. Peacemaker got shoved in there
00:23:05
too. Right.
00:23:07
Yeah. So instead of like jumping
00:23:09
around in timelines, it's like boom, here we are.
00:23:13
I like it. Yeah, I dig it.
00:23:15
So that's it for DC News. So before we move on to the next
00:23:20
segment here, ladies and gentlemen, this show is brought
00:23:22
to you by the good folks over at Dubby, right?

00:23:43
nerding 10 and get 10% off your order.
00:23:46
Whoo, that was good. All right, well, let's let's get
00:23:49
into this next segment here guys.
00:23:51
It's time for all the quick news.
00:23:53
It's time for one shots. Baywatch is flexing its new
00:24:01
cast. Former competitive gymnast and
00:24:05
model Livi Dune has joined the cast of Fox's Baywatch reboot in
00:24:11
the recurring role of Grace, a highly enthusiastic junior
00:24:14
lifeguard. It marks the professional acting
00:24:17
debut of the former Louisiana State University gymnast.
00:24:21
At first I was like why Livi Like why is this being reported
00:24:25
on like. Oh, I know who this is.
00:24:27
Yes. Oh, I know who this.
00:24:29
Is movie Dune has like 13 million social media followers.
00:24:35
She joins the cast as a a regular along with Shay Mitchell
00:24:40
and Brooks Nader. Like it's all about it's all
00:24:43
about social media. So like, Shay Mitchell has like
00:24:46
35 million social media followers.
00:24:49
Brooke Nader has almost 2 million followers.
00:24:52
So I think it's a bit of like. Stephen Amell.
00:24:54
Stephen Amell, Yes. Stephen Amell, I think they're
00:24:56
trying to reach a new generation for this show, which kind of
00:25:00
makes sense. But I did hear that, yes, she
00:25:03
went to LSU. Yes, she's a model and a
00:25:06
influencer and a gymnast. She has been taking acting
00:25:09
classes like and been trying to like get into into Hollywood.
00:25:13
So I don't know if this is her first role, but she's she's
00:25:18
working at it. So.
00:25:19
Her her first role was the Internet falling, falling in
00:25:23
love with her Peach. Oh my God, it took me a second
00:25:28
when I was like looking at the picture in the in the rundown, I
00:25:30
was like, she's from I know who that is.
00:25:33
That's the girl that everybody was like falling in love with
00:25:35
like a year ago. Exactly.
00:25:37
Yeah, I know exactly who that is.
00:25:39
Baywatch will hit the beach on Fox as part of the 2020262027
00:25:44
season. So probably debuting September
00:25:47
ish. Yeah, awesome.
00:25:51
But moving on, time to re enter the Kumate.
00:25:55
Yes, so excited. Are you, Are you ready for the
00:25:58
kumate? I'm a kumate.
00:26:01
A new remake of Jean Claude Van Damme's breakout movie
00:26:05
Bloodsport is officially in development at a 24.
00:26:10
Of course it would. Be and it's.
00:26:12
Bringing it would be a 24. I know, right?
00:26:15
I don't understand, but sure. And it's bringing in Michaela
00:26:18
Cole to write and direct a complete reimagining of the
00:26:22
story. So that's kind of interesting.
00:26:26
Kohl's recent slate of stacked with projects with Push
00:26:29
Boundaries along with I May Destroy You, She's Got First Day
00:26:33
on Earth and On the Way will appear alongside Anne Hathaway
00:26:37
in Mother Mary, playing a costume designer tied to
00:26:40
Hathaway's pop star character. If she looks familiar to you,
00:26:44
she's also an actress and she was in Black Panther.
00:26:50
She played, I think what's her name, Anika.
00:26:54
She was the Dora Melaje that took over as as head of the Dora
00:27:02
Melaje. Right.
00:27:03
OK, I know who you're talking about.
00:27:04
I know who. Yeah, Yeah.
00:27:06
So she's done a bunch of shows as well for like HBO and stuff
00:27:09
like that. And now she's done some writing
00:27:12
and directing for those shows. Now she's being hired to do
00:27:16
Bloodsport, which is like, OK, make it like a 24's got this.
00:27:22
They believe in you. They see something.
00:27:25
I'm, I'm definitely interested in seeing what her take on
00:27:28
Bloodsport will be. Bloodsport is a classic martial
00:27:31
arts movie and you know, I'm, I'm curious who she's going to
00:27:36
get for the movie itself. Yeah, it will be interesting.
00:27:42
It will be interesting. OK, Keep it going, Amazon is
00:27:47
saying. Game On, a live action adaption
00:27:50
of The Game of Life, is now in development at Amazon MGM
00:27:54
Studios. This project has been actually
00:27:57
been in the works for a while. Shernan and Hasbro have been
00:28:02
trying to crack the right take on the Game of Life for some
00:28:05
time. Things finally clicked after a
00:28:07
meeting with writer Alan Loeb, who brought an idea that helped
00:28:11
shape the direction of the film. No release date yet for The Game
00:28:14
of Life, so no. No date when the game's going to
00:28:17
begin, honestly. I don't know how I feel about
00:28:21
that. Like the game of life is just
00:28:23
basically life. Like it's it's a game about
00:28:27
like, hey, buy a house, pay a mortgage, go to work.
00:28:32
Right. That's like, yeah, it's like my
00:28:35
normal everyday bullshit. For little kids, it's a monopoly
00:28:37
for little kids. Yeah.
00:28:40
So I'm just like, I don't know how much I want to see a movie
00:28:44
or a TV show based on the game of life.
00:28:46
But think about it like games that have jumped to the screen
00:28:52
that are doing so well, Like Minecraft.
00:28:54
We're gonna talk about Minecraft in a minute.
00:28:56
But like Minecraft is a well known IP, Game of Life is a well
00:29:02
known IP. Hasbro is looking to cash in and
00:29:05
all their game IP and and and toy IP.
00:29:09
So it's just a matter of time. But for all that product, all
00:29:12
that IP gets out there. But like, Minecraft is based on
00:29:17
a video game that actually has like dungeon crawler stuff, you
00:29:22
know in it. So I don't know how much you get
00:29:25
out of the game of life. Yeah, I don't.
00:29:27
I don't know either. But it's coming.
00:29:29
Whether you like it or not. It's coming, yeah.
00:29:35
Speaking of, Kristen Dunst is rebuilding some new roles.
00:29:40
We talked about Minecraft actress Kristen Dunst from
00:29:45
Spider Man Fargo. Roofman has joined the cast of
00:29:49
Minecraft. The sequel Minecraft 2.
00:29:53
I hope that's what they call it. I hope they call it Minecraft
00:29:56
sequel. Yeah, it's coming from Warner
00:30:00
Brothers and Legendary. So I think the first one, did
00:30:03
the first one cross a billion it.
00:30:04
Got Yeah, it was. It was one of the highest
00:30:06
grossing movies of last year. Yeah, I think it crossed a
00:30:08
billion. So Dunst will play Alex, one of
00:30:15
the primary avatars available to play of the Minecraft video
00:30:20
game. I'm not familiar, but Kristen
00:30:22
Dunst is in. First film was a huge box office
00:30:28
success. Minecraft Two or the sequel or
00:30:30
whatever it's going to be called.
00:30:32
It's set to hit theaters on July 23rd, 2027.
00:30:37
All right, I I still haven't seen the first one and I know
00:30:39
like a lot of people were talking about how good it is.
00:30:41
I just, I never saw it. Are you kidding me?
00:30:43
You haven't seen Minecraft. No.
00:30:45
Well, you have. Fucking three kids, man.
00:30:47
So you have HBO? Max, I do have HBO Max.
00:30:51
It's sitting there waiting for you.
00:30:53
You. Know yeah, I'm I'm, I'm busy
00:30:54
watching Invincible and waiting for Daredevil, OK?
00:30:57
I, I see all like the little kids, all the little boys
00:31:00
running around with Minecraft shirts on at school and whatnot
00:31:03
and OK, cool. It was never, my kids never got
00:31:06
into it and I was never drawn to it.
00:31:09
But seeing they wanted to see the movie and seeing the movie
00:31:12
with them, I was super entertained.
00:31:15
I had a good time. I enjoyed watching the movie and
00:31:20
Momoa was super funny. Jack Black super funny so.
00:31:24
Chicken. Yeah, it's so crazy watching
00:31:29
people go nuts. Like when they started to come
00:31:33
out with a chicken jockey, people were jumping out of their
00:31:37
seats, literally throwing popcorn.
00:31:39
I'm like, I don't understand. But more power to them.
00:31:43
You know the. Chicken Jockey.
00:31:45
It was crazy. It was nuts.
00:31:47
Like you just wasted all that popcorn.
00:31:48
The dad and me came out. I'm like, you wasted all that
00:31:50
popcorn. Popcorn's expensive, kid.
00:31:53
Go get me more. But anyway, yeah #2 coming out
00:31:58
July 23rd. Speaking of Kristen Dunst.
00:32:01
Speaking of Kristen Dunst, Academy Award winner are
00:32:05
actually Academy Emmy and Golden Globe nominee Kristen Dunst is
00:32:10
set to star in the sequel to Housemaids Secret alongside
00:32:15
Sydney Sweeney. Yes, Housemaid Sydney Secret,
00:32:20
Sydney Sweeney. That's a lot of alliteration
00:32:22
happening. The film is the follow up to the
00:32:25
2020 Fives box office hit The House, made based on Freedom,
00:32:30
Mcfadden's best selling novel. Actually, I heard it was really
00:32:33
good. I heard a lot of people that
00:32:36
went and saw it were very interested.
00:32:39
At the premiere, they gave a bunch of people plates to break
00:32:42
and they were like, then they said that you'll know what scene
00:32:45
that we want you to break the plate at and like everybody knew
00:32:47
and they broke the plates. Oh, that's funny.
00:32:50
In the sequel, Millie returns, and per the plot description,
00:32:54
she takes a job keeping the house for a woman she's never
00:32:57
allowed to see, only to discover the truth behind the locked door
00:33:02
that threatens to expose secrets far darker than her own.
00:33:07
Kirsten Dunst living her best life.
00:33:10
Kirsten Dunst is just like, she's like, it's time to revive
00:33:13
my, my career. Getting all the roles.
00:33:16
That goes Matt. He missed the first part of the
00:33:18
show while we were talking about him, but he he felt it.
00:33:22
There you there you go and Matt, please do not use the soundboard
00:33:27
that young Phil is going to make you.
00:33:30
We want you to keep your job. We like you as an industry
00:33:33
insider. Please don't use the sound board
00:33:36
young Phil wants to give you. Yeah, I, I, I was telling them I
00:33:39
need to make you a sound board. I've been saying that for a
00:33:41
while, but I need to make you a sound board.
00:33:43
So that way you can just surprise the living crap out of
00:33:46
Kofi and and just I want to hear Kofi's reaction when you use the
00:33:50
sound board for the first time. Oh my gosh, I could see Kofi's
00:33:55
eyes like popping out from behind those big glasses, behind
00:34:01
those Run DMC glasses. OK, keep it going, Amazon.
00:34:05
MGM got the theatrical win it's been chasing.
00:34:09
Project Hail Mary launched straight to the top with an
00:34:13
impressive $80.5 million box office, Oh my gosh, instantly
00:34:20
becoming the studio's biggest opening ever and the largest of
00:34:24
the year so far. That number blows past previous
00:34:27
Amazon MGM record held by Creed, three at 58 million and of
00:34:32
course overtook Screen 7, which we talked about I think last
00:34:35
week, which had been leading the 2026 box office with like 60
00:34:40
million. Internationally, the film has
00:34:42
added another 60 million across 82 markets, bringing the global
00:34:47
box office to $140 million. So far.
00:34:52
Amazon MGM, mission accomplished.
00:34:55
Have you seen, Have you seen this yet?
00:34:57
Project Cam Larry. I haven't, mainly because we
00:35:00
had, well, you know, we, we, the movie came out on Thursday.
00:35:03
I had a show Thursday and then we drove down to LA Friday
00:35:06
morning. We did a show for the three
00:35:08
days, you know, I worked yesterday, didn't really have
00:35:12
time to do anything yesterday. Today, you know, obviously work
00:35:15
in the show. I'm probably not going to be
00:35:17
able to see this until this weekend, but I, this, this is on
00:35:20
my list of movies that I want to see for this year.
00:35:22
I definitely want to go and see this, this, this movie in
00:35:26
general is a big deal for me. And after seeing more of the
00:35:28
trailers and kind of more of what people were talking about
00:35:31
of it, like all the hype on this movie is, is, is out there and
00:35:35
I, I want to go watch this movie really bad.
00:35:37
All I heard was excuses of womp, womp, womp, womp, but I didn't
00:35:42
see the movie. I didn't see the movie either,
00:35:44
but I was in the theater next to it.
00:35:47
I wanted to see it, but I got dragged into Hopper's, which I
00:35:51
still wanted to see. I figured I was like, what?
00:35:54
What kids movie is that Right now?
00:35:55
It's gonna be the only movie that James is allowed to go see.
00:35:58
Yeah, I went and saw Hopper's with the fam Bam and.
00:36:00
It I heard that's hilarious actually.
00:36:02
It was actually good. It's, I mean, it's Pixar, it's
00:36:05
heart warming, it's touching and has an underlying story.
00:36:08
There's lots of, lots of jokes for adults and for kids.
00:36:11
It pulls at your heartstrings like always.
00:36:14
And most importantly for me, it connected because it's Pixar
00:36:19
connected to the bigger Pixar theory that we've been talking
00:36:24
about for years and years. About that all the movies are
00:36:26
connected. All the Pixar movies are
00:36:28
connected and it this is the movie that goes like, all right,
00:36:31
cats out the bag. We need to put it in the movie,
00:36:34
not just make a little Easter egg references.
00:36:36
It's in the movie. Yeah.
00:36:38
So, so go see hoppers double feature, go see Hoppers, go see
00:36:42
Project Hail Mary. We'll be good.
00:36:45
Yeah, All right. Keep it going.
00:36:48
Netflix says Bongiorno to the latest adaption.
00:36:53
Netflix Assassin's Creed series is finally moving forward.
00:36:57
Production is officially in their way, and the show is
00:37:00
heading to Rome in Italy. The city played a huge role in
00:37:05
Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, making it one of the most
00:37:08
popular locations in the entire franchise.
00:37:10
But there's a twist. The show is set in 6480, which
00:37:16
places it nearly 1500 years before Assassin's Creed
00:37:21
Brotherhood. That means we're getting a
00:37:24
completely original story that has been explored.
00:37:27
It hasn't been explored in any of the games yet, so I know you
00:37:30
played Assassin's Creed. I play Assassin's Creed.
00:37:34
I am deep, and I play every one of those games.
00:37:37
The rumor right now is that this show is going to take place
00:37:43
shortly after the events of Assassin's Creed Origin, which
00:37:46
takes place in Egypt. Yeah, and it's it's supposed to
00:37:52
be kind of like close in timeline to that.
00:37:54
They're saying that there may be a cameo from Bialik in this, who
00:37:58
is the main character from from Assassin's Creed origin, which
00:38:01
would be really dope if Bialik shows up in this.
00:38:04
He's he's such a cool, cool ass character.
00:38:09
And yeah, I. Well, telling an original story,
00:38:13
but also connecting it to the world that, you know, or the,
00:38:18
yeah, I guess the world that. You know, right, Right.
00:38:20
Right. So, I mean, yeah, there have
00:38:22
been rumors on kind of like how close it is to the last game or
00:38:27
to one of the games, but then also that the writers of the
00:38:33
games are working closely with the writers of the show.
00:38:38
Oh, that's cool. So unlike the movie, where it
00:38:41
was just kind of like random and it was an adaptation, it was
00:38:44
like that. We're going to do something
00:38:45
completely original, but it's Assassin's Creed, but it's not
00:38:48
and all this other stuff. This supposedly this show is
00:38:51
supposed to be something that kind of like when when I talk
00:38:54
about like video game shows, it's supposed to be something
00:38:56
that lives within the universe of Assassin's Creed.
00:39:00
And again, it it Assassin's Creed as a franchise lends
00:39:04
itself to that. So like, you know, because you
00:39:06
can put it in any timeline you follow an assassin, you have, if
00:39:10
you have a good enough storyline, you can do it where
00:39:13
it links up with the rest. As long as it's something that's
00:39:15
like, Oh yeah, that's just some random dude that is doing an
00:39:18
experience out of Stergo, which is the company that the Templar
00:39:21
company that that creates the, the animus, then it works.
00:39:26
You know, just don't go veer super far off the source
00:39:30
material. You know, do what do what a
00:39:34
Fallout does and make it just be something else that lives within
00:39:38
that timeline. Yeah, I like see, I like that
00:39:41
cuz then it doesn't negate anything.
00:39:44
It doesn't negate the games that you've played for years.
00:39:46
It doesn't get negate the new show.
00:39:48
It makes it live in one cohesive piece that, you know, at any
00:39:52
point in time it can start crossing over and you start
00:39:55
picking up pieces here and there.
00:39:56
Kind of like the way you guys always talk about Game of
00:39:58
Thrones and like we talk about like, I don't know, the the
00:40:02
tournaments. And then you're like, this led
00:40:04
to this, this and this. Like seeing it all connect is I
00:40:07
think adds those layers to a. Fandom that people want, whether
00:40:12
whether it's going to change the entire story or just add that
00:40:15
little bit of Easter egg that makes it that much richer of a
00:40:17
world. People, people like that.
00:40:21
I like that. All right, so no release date
00:40:24
yet set for Netflix's Assassin's Creed.
00:40:26
I I totally forgot there was like an Assassin Creed's movie.
00:40:31
Wasn't it Jake Gyllenhaal or something?
00:40:33
No. So you're thinking of Prince of
00:40:36
Persia. Jake Gyllenhaal was Prince of
00:40:37
Persia, the movie was, I'm forgetting his name but the dude
00:40:42
who plays Magneto in in the newer movies.
00:40:45
Oh, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. Yeah, the movie was him and it
00:40:49
wasn't it. It wasn't good, by the way, Just
00:40:54
got to catch up there. You.
00:41:01
Go. There you go.
00:41:01
Michael Fassbender. That's right.
00:41:04
I forgot, I couldn't really think of his name too.
00:41:05
I'm just like, no, that's Magneto.
00:41:08
And you're like his his real name.
00:41:09
I'm like, oh, Eric, Eric Lyncher, Eric Lyncher.
00:41:15
I'm getting lost. All right.
00:41:17
Next up, the Wheel of Time is far from done spinning.
00:41:21
The live action series Raptits Run, the iconic fantasy universe
00:41:25
created by Robert Jordan, is gearing up for a major comeback
00:41:29
across multiple formats. A new wave of Wheel of Time
00:41:33
projects are coming, featuring animated TV series, animated
00:41:38
feature films, and a new PC and mobile video game.
00:41:42
The goal here is to reach new audiences while giving long time
00:41:45
fans more ways to enjoy and explore the world they love.
00:41:50
There's also still a open world AAARPG in the works at I Watch
00:41:57
Games Montreal. The Wheel of Time is just
00:42:00
getting started. I didn't even know this was a
00:42:03
game. It's adorable that you called it
00:42:05
a A A. I don't know what what is.
00:42:08
No AAA games. OK at first I was like is that a
00:42:13
typo cuz I was like RPG. No, AAA is kind of like the, the
00:42:19
rating that you give a game where it's like, you know, if
00:42:21
it's like a lot of money goes into the game and they have like
00:42:25
really high graphics and really, you know, really rendered worlds
00:42:28
like like Skyrim and Assassin's Creed would be a AAA game.
00:42:33
Those those are AAA games. Gotcha, gotcha.
00:42:37
I thought you meant AAA in Mexico.
00:42:39
I thought you meant luchadors. Yeah, or AAA, the company I work
00:42:43
for. Oh, there you go.
00:42:48
But I mean, this is another one same sort of deal where you told
00:42:52
a story on live action and now you're going to do more to
00:42:57
expand the universe, you know, into more games, more anime.
00:43:02
I let's see, I think it was on Amazon.
00:43:05
So maybe they're going to put some of the animated 2V series
00:43:07
on Amazon. Right.
00:43:09
I, I, I think I feel like with that in particular with Wheel of
00:43:12
Time, there's more they can do in animation.
00:43:15
And now that they've established kind of like, you know, the
00:43:17
world and things like that, you know, like, like the, you know,
00:43:23
like something we're going to talk about here in a little bit,
00:43:26
there's there's a lot of things, a lot of potential you have with
00:43:30
animation, so. I agree.
00:43:36
All right, keeping it going. Back to Paradise one last time.
00:43:42
Hulu has announced that they've renewed Paradise for a third
00:43:47
season. While Hulu has not commented on
00:43:50
the finality of this third season's star, Sterling K Brown
00:43:54
did say in an interview on the Armchair Expert show what?
00:43:57
Was that it's It's probably another insider podcast.
00:44:03
No, I think that's isn't that Dax Shepard?
00:44:05
I don't know anyway. Is that Dax Shepard?
00:44:08
I think that's Dax Shepard that the show was planned for by
00:44:12
creator Dan Fogelman for a three season arc.
00:44:17
So it sounds like this renewal may be the last season of
00:44:22
Paradise. That makes sense it.
00:44:24
Just comes just ahead of the Season 2 finale on March 30th.
00:44:29
Yeah, armchair expert is Dex Dex Shepard show.
00:44:32
So you're correct. I nailed it for once.
00:44:35
You are you are very correct on that.
00:44:37
I, I it makes sense. Isn't Paradise based on a book
00:44:39
anyways? I don't know, I do like the show
00:44:42
a lot. I do.
00:44:43
I haven't finished season 2 yet, but I mean like it's, it is good
00:44:46
again. James, you, you were the one
00:44:48
that talked me into that show. I didn't.
00:44:50
I had cancelled Hulu at that point, but when I got Hulu
00:44:53
again, that was like the first thing I watched and I was like,
00:44:55
Oh my God, the show was so good. It's so good, it's so good.
00:44:59
Season 2 takes a little bit of time because they have to like
00:45:01
kind of reset. Right.
00:45:03
First couple episodes. The first couple episodes are a
00:45:06
little bit slow. It's like a little bit of a slow
00:45:08
burn, yeah. But then once it picks up, I
00:45:10
want to say Episode 3, it picks back up again and it really,
00:45:13
really picks back up. I like it yeah, I just watched
00:45:16
the latest episode last night, so I'm all on board.
00:45:19
So next week is the finale. Yeah, I'm pretty, I'm pretty
00:45:23
behind. I want to say I'm on like
00:45:24
episode episode 4 right now. Well.
00:45:27
Let me spoil it for you real quick.
00:45:30
I'm just kidding, OK? Is there more?
00:45:33
Oh, I do have. One more I got, one more I.
00:45:35
Got one more. OK.
00:45:39
Oh, I didn't write an intro. Damn it.
00:45:41
Give me give me a stitch intro. You got a stitch voice in you.
00:45:44
I've got a stitch voice, but what do I say?
00:45:48
Thanks. For changing, there you go.
00:45:51
Disney Studios has announced release dates for a couple of
00:45:55
their anticipated sequels, including live action Lilo and
00:45:59
Stitch 2, which is coming out May 26th, 2028, Memorial Day
00:46:05
Weekend again, and Pixar's Incredibles 3 coming June 16th,
00:46:11
2028. So that's going to be a big year
00:46:14
for them too. Last Memorial Day, the live
00:46:17
action Lilo and Stitch hit a holiday opening record with $182
00:46:22
million over the four day weekend, overtaking 2023's Top
00:46:29
Gun Maverick which had 160.5 million.
00:46:33
Get out of here with that marijuana, Krista.
00:46:40
I mean, Disney's hitting it with these live actions now.
00:46:43
I feel like, I feel like they're hitting their stride.
00:46:47
They're hitting it hard, even with Dwayne Johnson's ridiculous
00:46:51
hair. We don't have that on The
00:46:56
Rundown this week, but that trailer, it's like, cool, it
00:46:59
looks good. I don't know how to feel about
00:47:01
Dwayne Johnson with long curly hair.
00:47:04
You know, you know what's so funny about watching the Moana
00:47:06
trailer? I love it.
00:47:07
I love the the animated movie. I love the story.
00:47:10
It very much has a special place for me and my family.
00:47:13
It's something we've all loved and can watch over and over
00:47:16
again. But like seeing him seeing the
00:47:20
rock on screen with that, with that wig.
00:47:24
Somebody in the in the comments, I think we posted something,
00:47:27
somebody in the comments is like, is it me or does he still
00:47:29
look bald like he does? He's got a huge wig and it's
00:47:33
like, does he still look bald? He still looks bald.
00:47:37
He does. He does.
00:47:38
He looks absolutely terrible with that wig.
00:47:41
I feel like they could have done so much better with that wig.
00:47:45
That being said, everything else in the movie looks great.
00:47:49
They picked a great Moana. That the PUA.
00:47:53
The pig looks delicious. I'm all for this movie.
00:47:56
I'm Yeah. You know, hey, hey, looks
00:47:58
delicious like usual. Yeah, looks like a good chicken
00:48:01
adobo. It'd be great.
00:48:06
Did I mention dates? Oh, Lilo and Stitch, May 2028.
00:48:09
And then Pixar's Incredibles, 3 June 2028.
00:48:15
All right. There you go.
00:48:17
We're going to switch into some of the some some of the other
00:48:20
stories we got going on. Oh man, we're going to get into
00:48:24
some sad stuff here guys. Fun fact, Chuck Norris did build
00:48:30
the hospital he was born in. I don't know if you guys knew
00:48:34
that Chuck Norris, the man who became a walking myth, a larger
00:48:38
than life action hero and the internet's ultimate symbol of
00:48:41
toughness, has passed away at the age of 86.
00:48:44
Wait, wait. Hold on.
00:48:46
Chuck Norris didn't need GPS. Chuck Norris decided where he
00:48:51
was. Sorry.
00:48:52
Continue. Chuck Norris suddenly died
00:48:56
suddenly after being hospital in Hawaii.
00:48:59
Chuck Norris. Tried to lose weight once but
00:49:02
Chuck Norris never loses. Born in March 1940, he served in
00:49:09
the United States Air Force, where his journey into martial
00:49:12
arts began. When Chuck Norris cuts onions,
00:49:16
the onions cry. His big screen breakthrough was
00:49:21
in Return of the Dragon, where he went toe to toe with Bruce
00:49:25
Lee. Chuck Norris didn't read books.
00:49:28
He stared at them until he got the information he wanted.
00:49:33
Starring in films like Missing in Action, Code of Silence and
00:49:37
Firewalker, with Lone Wolf McQuaid cementing him as a full
00:49:41
blown action star in the early 80s.
00:49:45
Chuck Norris could speak fluent French in Russian.
00:49:51
But for many fans, Norris became a household name thanks to
00:49:54
Walker, Texas Ranger. OK, last one.
00:49:58
Jesus could walk on water. Chuck Norris could swim through
00:50:02
land. His family shared a heartfelt
00:50:05
message that reminds us who he really was beyond the myth to
00:50:09
the world, who was a martial artist, actor and a symbol of
00:50:12
strength to us. He was a devoted husband, loving
00:50:16
father and a grandfather. An incredible brother and the
00:50:19
heart of our family. Also, when Chuck Norris does a
00:50:25
push up, he doesn't push himself up, he pushes the world down.
00:50:30
Chuck Norris is the only man that could lead a horse to water
00:50:32
and make a drink. That's another good one.
00:50:36
Chuck Norris is the only man in the world that could slam a
00:50:38
revolving door. Slam a revolving.
00:50:44
Door. I know we're having fun with the
00:50:46
whole Chuck Norris joke thing, but you know, he's a complete
00:50:49
icon. You know, you've known Chuck
00:50:52
Norris and his his characters and his movies for the last, you
00:50:57
know what, 40-50 years? Oh my God, So huge icon,
00:51:02
especially in the action genre. So RIP Chuck Norris.
00:51:08
Yeah, thank you, Chuck. You were an icon.
00:51:11
You're going to be missed. I know we're dropping all these
00:51:15
jokes and, and we're giving them all this love, you know?
00:51:19
Yeah, in the last couple of years, he, he kind of said some
00:51:21
crazy things, but at the same time, he, he, he, the, the man
00:51:26
will be missed. I mean, you know, there's so
00:51:28
much about Chuck Norris that was that was great, you know, But I
00:51:33
mean, yeah, it's, it's, it's, it's his legacy.
00:51:38
Is, is always going to live on. We will miss him based on his
00:51:40
legacy. Agreed.
00:51:45
Did you want to say that? That being said, Chuck Norris
00:51:48
didn't lose a fight with Death. Death tapped out and offered him
00:51:52
the throne. Take.
00:51:54
That take that death. Yeah, when the boogeyman goes to
00:51:57
sleep at night, he doesn't look out for other boogeyman.
00:51:59
He looks out for Chuck Norris. There you.
00:52:04
Go I knew so many Chuck Norris jokes back in the day, man.
00:52:08
Obviously. Yeah, obviously, yeah,
00:52:10
obviously, because you had the ones that you had written.
00:52:12
These were all ones that I just popped off the top of my head,
00:52:14
right. So it's like the the push up one
00:52:17
was actually from the Army. We, we we we used to use that
00:52:19
joke all the. Time.
00:52:20
I figured that was like that. Had to be some kind of army
00:52:23
joke. Yeah, we also would do those
00:52:26
jokes with, with General Mattis, General Mattis, General Chaos,
00:52:36
Actual Mattis. So Jim Mattis, he was the
00:52:40
secretary certainly was the Secretary of Defense in Trump's
00:52:44
first term, but he he was the the commandant of the Marine
00:52:49
Corps while it when I was in the Army and we had a lot of jokes
00:52:54
like those same exact Chuck Norris style jokes about, about
00:52:58
General Mattis. Nice, right.
00:53:01
Like one of them was like General Mattis's knife hand.
00:53:05
The the OR the kill radius of General Mattis's knife hand was
00:53:07
5 miles. So anytime he knife handed
00:53:11
somebody, you know, like anything within 5 miles was
00:53:13
destroyed. Yeah.
00:53:18
But yeah. So, yeah, it's, it's a thing on
00:53:20
there. So let's let's go ahead and move
00:53:22
on because I will do Chuck Norris jokes all night, but we
00:53:25
don't have that much that kind of time.
00:53:27
Buffy gets dealt some major blows.
00:53:30
So Nicholas Brendan, the actor who brought the endlessly
00:53:33
lovable Xander Harris to life on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and
00:53:37
later appeared in Criminal Minds, has passed away.
00:53:40
According to his family, he died peacefully in his sleep of
00:53:43
natural causes. We are heartbroken to share the
00:53:46
passing of our brother and son Nicholas Brendan.
00:53:49
He passed in his sleep of natural causes.
00:53:52
Most people know Nikki for his work as an actor and for the
00:53:55
characters he brought to life over the years.
00:53:57
In recent years, Nikki has found his passion in painting and art
00:54:02
as part of Buffy's inner circle alongside Sarah Michelle Gellar.
00:54:06
His Zander became an emotional anchor of the cast after Buffy
00:54:11
ended in 2003. He openly struggled, struggled
00:54:13
with addiction and mental health challenges, even announcing at
00:54:16
the 2004 fan convention that he was entering rehab for
00:54:20
alcoholism. Which is pretty brave to do that
00:54:23
at A at a Comic Con and say, you know what?
00:54:25
I need help, and I'm going to go get that help.
00:54:28
Yeah. Exactly.
00:54:29
Yeah. He later later found a steady
00:54:31
role in on Criminal Minds, appearing in 21 episodes as
00:54:34
Kevin Lynch, a former hacker who found his way into the BA U's
00:54:38
orbit. Thank you, Nicholas.
00:54:41
You and Zander will be missed. Oh.
00:54:45
So sad. So we're going to stick around
00:54:48
in sad news with different kind of sad news.
00:54:52
Buffy Sad. News.
00:54:53
Yeah, Buffy, sad news. We already knew about what was
00:54:56
going on with this, but we got some more news on it.
00:54:58
So it's been a rough stretch for fans of Buffy, and we get some
00:55:02
information on the how rough it was.
00:55:05
After Sir Michelle Gellar confirmed that Buffy New
00:55:08
Sunnydale at Hulu was officially dead, more details are surfacing
00:55:11
about what actually went wrong and why this reboot never made
00:55:15
it past the pilot stage. One of the biggest issues seems
00:55:18
to have been the creative direction of the pilot.
00:55:21
The original script focused mostly on a new Slayer, with
00:55:25
only a very brief appearance from Geller's Buffy Summers.
00:55:29
That approach was later adjusted, but it apparently
00:55:32
didn't fix the core problems. Hulu ultimately saw the pilot as
00:55:36
unsalvageable and not good enough, in Hulu's estimation, to
00:55:40
turn things around. Which says a lot because they
00:55:43
put a lot of stuff out. Yeah, I was going to say, it
00:55:45
sounds like maybe they were filming and writing at the same
00:55:49
time, like changes on the fly and.
00:55:53
Yeah. And that's, that's just a recipe
00:55:55
for, for, for disaster when like, if you don't have the
00:56:00
script ready and you guys aren't, you know, don't exactly
00:56:03
know what's going on with it, it's, it's not going to, it's
00:56:06
not going to turn out well. You know, What's interesting is
00:56:10
that Hulu isn't ready to let Buffy go entirely, though.
00:56:13
So the report says there's still interest in reviving the revival
00:56:17
with the different creative team somewhere down the line.
00:56:19
For now, the Buffy IP is staying at Hulu, which means we we may
00:56:25
still get a Buffy the Vampire Slayer Slayer reboot, but it's
00:56:29
just not going to be the version that they did, so that's good
00:56:31
news. Yeah, but but are you going to
00:56:35
get Michelle Gellar or what's your name?
00:56:39
Sarah Michelle Gellar again, I think that that hinges on on a
00:56:44
script like it, it doesn't necessarily mean that we're not
00:56:48
going to get Sarah Michelle Keller in the role.
00:56:49
It's, it's more like, you know, if it's a good enough script, I
00:56:52
think she'd be down to come back.
00:56:55
Yeah, well, I mean, whatever script they had brought her
00:56:58
back. But what's interesting, though,
00:57:00
is like, yeah, the show's going to focus on a new Slayer, right?
00:57:06
But halfway through they said, well, we got to do more Buffy.
00:57:09
Like I wonder if I wonder if she had a hand in like, hey, we
00:57:14
need, I need to be more in this versus like for the story I have
00:57:18
to be in this. I don't know.
00:57:20
Like, OK, so I, I, I feel like if they would have called it new
00:57:23
Sunnydale and just new Sunnydale, that would have been
00:57:25
fine to focus on a new Slayer. But you called it Buffy, new
00:57:29
Sunnydale. And they at first they, they
00:57:33
were just like, oh, we're going to put Buffy in the in, in the
00:57:35
season finale, or rather at the end of the show.
00:57:37
And it's like, that doesn't make sense.
00:57:38
You name the show after Buffy, so you can't do an entire show
00:57:43
about we're get we're going to the next Slayer, but you have
00:57:47
her name in the title. That makes no sense, you know?
00:57:49
So like, if you're going to call it New Sunnydale, that makes
00:57:52
sense because it's a show that takes place in that universe,
00:57:56
but it doesn't focus on Buffy. Agreed.
00:58:00
Agreed. You know what I mean?
00:58:02
Chloe Zhao, you know? Yeah, like Oscar winning
00:58:06
director Chloe Zhao ready to go, like signed on board.
00:58:13
The only thing I can think of was that they started to film
00:58:16
this and then they like, she's a big time movie director.
00:58:22
You know, filming for movies and filming for TV are very
00:58:25
different. So like, I don't know if, if it
00:58:28
just wasn't translating, I I don't know what the problem was.
00:58:31
But to get this far into it, you know, like everything's moving
00:58:35
forward and all of a sudden it halts halfway through and we
00:58:38
don't even finish the pilot. Something went wrong.
00:58:42
Something went off the rails. No, for sure, for sure.
00:58:45
There's something just didn't click right.
00:58:47
Again, I, I, I, I feel like there's room for for, for there
00:58:52
to be a revival. It just needs to be the right
00:58:54
script. It needs to be the right way.
00:58:56
They need to do something that equally respects Buffy the
00:59:01
Vampire Slayer but also moves into the next generation.
00:59:05
Right, I agree. I think I think there is going
00:59:08
to be another Buffy reboot, but probably won't be for a few
00:59:14
years. So you'll see.
00:59:16
Sarah Michelle Gellar is interested, then.
00:59:18
And I wonder if, you know, the next version of this is
00:59:21
something that Sarah Michelle Gellar is more heavily involved
00:59:24
in and not just, hey, do you want to come back?
00:59:27
It's like, no, you know what? This time around, the first one
00:59:30
didn't work. This time around, we're we're
00:59:31
going to do this my way. I know the character better than
00:59:33
anybody. I played her for the entire, you
00:59:36
know, I, I played her longer than anybody because remember,
00:59:39
it's not just her that played Buffy.
00:59:40
So I mean. That's a good point.
00:59:42
That's a. Good point.
00:59:45
So let's go ahead and continue on here, Captain.
00:59:51
We lost warp engines. Oh, yeah.
00:59:56
Star Star Trek Starfleet Academy is officially ending with its
01:00:00
second season on Paramount Plus. Wait, hold on.
01:00:06
You suck. Sucks if they're cancelling it.
01:00:09
A series set at Starfleet Academy following cadets as they
01:00:13
train, clash, fall in love and figure out what it means to wear
01:00:17
the uniform. There's no way this Star Trek
01:00:20
series could fail, right? Right.
01:00:24
Yeah. The show had poor writing,
01:00:26
questionable character work, and a tone that just never lined up
01:00:29
with the franchise and the fans. What's next for Star Trek?
01:00:35
Well, we know that Paramount is going in new and bold
01:00:40
directions, so. We'll see.
01:00:46
But I mean, it's such a big IP, I feel like there, no matter
01:00:50
what happens with Starfleet Academy, they're going to find a
01:00:54
way to keep going or keep Star Trek going.
01:00:57
Yeah, yeah. The fan base is what makes me
01:01:04
kind of just like, I don't know, like there's, there's so many
01:01:09
people. Star Trek.
01:01:09
Fan base is as toxic as some Star Wars fan base.
01:01:14
In different ways. So Star Wars fans are very not
01:01:19
my Star Wars. It's this.
01:01:20
This Star Wars can only be one way Star Trek fans are very
01:01:28
their toxicity is again, it's very similar but different
01:01:32
because it is a very that's not my Star Trek.
01:01:34
That's not the way I would have wanted my Star Trek to be.
01:01:37
Oh, well, you know, that's there's too much action or
01:01:39
there's not enough action or, you know, it's too boring or all
01:01:44
these other things. Like everybody just complaints
01:01:46
about everything. And it's like, you know, the the
01:01:50
one that gets me now is when I hear Trek fans talking about
01:01:53
anything woke. And it's like, you're not a Trek
01:01:57
fan at all if you if you negatively use the word woke.
01:02:01
Yeah, that's a good point. Because Star Trek was the show
01:02:05
that invented woke, right? So.
01:02:10
So it's like the minute that I start hearing anybody start
01:02:12
talking about, oh, it's too woke.
01:02:14
They did this with this character.
01:02:16
Yeah. Yeah.
01:02:17
OK. In the 60s, in the 60s, they had
01:02:20
the first interracial kicks that would have been woke in the 60s.
01:02:26
Did you watch the show? Did you watch Starfleet Academy?
01:02:30
I didn't cuz I always forget that I have paramount plus.
01:02:33
Well. Done.
01:02:35
Well done. I I really do forget that I have
01:02:38
Paramount Plus, so it's like. Well, I watched it.
01:02:41
I watched the entire show. What did you think of it?
01:02:44
So I thought it looked really good.
01:02:48
The production value was there. It was.
01:02:51
It was like beautiful. The colors were great.
01:02:54
But you know, like what Sei Wang says in the chat, it was, it was
01:02:59
just bad. There was bad writing, you know,
01:03:01
like I don't know how many episodes, 10 episodes.
01:03:04
And like, it felt like 3 or 4 of them, three or four of them were
01:03:07
filler. You know, it's like, what are
01:03:10
you? What kind of story are?
01:03:11
You telling you and and and and in a 10 episode season there
01:03:14
should not be any filler. Like I understand if you have a
01:03:16
24 episode season then yeah filler is there but.
01:03:21
And they would just do weird things with characters, you
01:03:25
know, like it would it just made it wouldn't make sense moving
01:03:29
forward. It's like you were along for
01:03:30
this ride and then like, as something weird happened, you're
01:03:34
like, why did they make that choice?
01:03:35
Like they were off trying to do something else.
01:03:37
Like why is Paul Giamatti Giamatti the the really odd bad
01:03:43
guy? Like you should have put him as
01:03:45
like one of the main characters not as like some throw away bad
01:03:51
guy type thing. It just it threw me way off.
01:03:55
How was Becky Lynch? She was in it for an episode.
01:03:58
She was one of the, she was like Sulu.
01:04:02
She was driving the ship like in two episodes.
01:04:04
That was it. She had like 2 lines.
01:04:07
So it kind of, you know, that kind of made me a little sad to
01:04:09
think, oh, you didn't do much. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:04:13
I don't know. I I mean, it's one of those
01:04:15
things where the premise of it has a lot of potential, but if,
01:04:19
I mean, if you're not, if you're if the writing isn't good, it's
01:04:22
it's, you know, I mean, they potentially could do like Picard
01:04:26
where Picard was like, OK, it started off kind of meh.
01:04:29
Second season got better third season.
01:04:30
Like everybody's talking about how good of a, of a show it was
01:04:34
because the third, the third season just kind of redeemed the
01:04:37
show, right? But it's like.
01:04:38
Third season was OK. This is the reunion tour.
01:04:41
We're only going to play the greatest hits.
01:04:44
The greatest hits, yeah, we're only.
01:04:46
Going to bring the next generation characters back and
01:04:48
that's it. Yeah.
01:04:49
So I mean, like, you know, you have the potential to do that if
01:04:52
you have, you find better writing in in people who who
01:04:56
kind of like if they learn from their mistakes.
01:04:59
But at that point, Paramount's also not allowing that to happen
01:05:03
because they're like, oh, we're ending it after Season 2.
01:05:05
Yeah, good point, Good point. So.
01:05:09
You know, it's just weird. Like they had a Klingon on the
01:05:12
show and it's like, OK, cool, we have a Klingon.
01:05:14
But then he was very hesitant to like do his like Klingon
01:05:20
traditions, you know, and then he ended up being homosexual,
01:05:23
which is OK. But then you just, the
01:05:26
storytelling just wasn't great. It's like, it almost felt forced
01:05:30
to like, oh, let's take a Klingon and spin it, you know,
01:05:33
just to spin it, you know. I don't know, it just felt
01:05:36
weird. And they were introducing all
01:05:37
these other aliens, but like some of them were like human
01:05:41
budget wise. I don't know.
01:05:43
They just didn't want to like put them in makeup or something.
01:05:46
I don't know. It was, it was really odd, like,
01:05:48
oh, wait, you're not human. You're an alien, but you look
01:05:50
exactly human, you know? Yeah, it's, it's, it's funny
01:05:55
because the Orville did, did that, right?
01:05:57
Their, their Klingon character, you know, ended up being gay.
01:06:00
And, you know, one of their characters, you know, they,
01:06:04
they, they only have men, you know, in, in their culture.
01:06:08
So like, you know, like they like homosexuality was like
01:06:11
normal for their culture. And it's like, you can do it in
01:06:15
a way where it makes sense still for the show.
01:06:17
You just have to have good writing.
01:06:19
Yeah, wasn't there? Yeah, I.
01:06:23
Will I watch season 2 of Starfleet Academy knowing that
01:06:26
it's cancelled? I may try.
01:06:30
Just to kind of see what they do and if they can stick the
01:06:33
landing on the on the second. Exactly.
01:06:34
Yeah, further. You're going to blow up the
01:06:36
ship. Yeah, well, let's, let's
01:06:39
continue on because again, if I, if I keep going on this, you
01:06:42
know, I'll start getting into toxic fans and getting into
01:06:46
everything else. And it's, you know, we've got
01:06:48
other things we got to talk about here.
01:06:49
So let's, let's continue on here for all my who fans out there,
01:06:54
all the Whovians. It's easy to misplace things in
01:06:58
its hardest because it's massive.
01:07:04
The BBC recently revealed that 2 long lost episodes from the
01:07:08
classic 1960s era of the series have finally been recovered.
01:07:13
For the first time in more than six decades, footage from the
01:07:17
legendary serial Doctor Who story The Dialect's Master Plan
01:07:22
is being shown again. The BBC released a montage of
01:07:26
clips from 2 episodes that have been missing since their
01:07:30
original broadcast in 1965, giving fans a rare look at a
01:07:35
piece of television history that many assumed was gone forever.
01:07:41
Oh wow. That is insane and I'm sure they
01:07:47
just like found it in like the back of like some studio like
01:07:51
archive or something. Well.
01:07:52
Think about it, back then you'd have 1-2 copies of it.
01:07:55
It's not like anybody had VHS. Would be like I wanna record
01:07:59
Doctor Who tonight. You watched it on air and that
01:08:04
was it. Right.
01:08:05
There's no replay. There's no reruns at the time.
01:08:08
And that's what I'm saying is like, you know, if you lost the
01:08:11
original copy of that, then it was gone.
01:08:13
And somebody probably found it in an like, like either in an
01:08:17
archive or they, you know, fell behind the couch or something,
01:08:20
you know, behind the. Couch Oh, what is this?
01:08:23
Oh priceless. Doctor Who?
01:08:24
Yeah, we haven't moved this couch in the studio since 1961.
01:08:33
It was very dusty. Very dusty.
01:08:35
There was, there's, there's, there's, there's over 60 years
01:08:38
of, of, of like, you know, dead human skin, skin cells behind
01:08:42
that. OK, easy.
01:08:45
The recovered episodes are titled The Nightmare Begins,
01:08:47
which is the dead skin cells behind the The couch and The
01:08:51
Devil's Planet, the 1st and 3rd installment of the massive 12
01:08:56
part Dalek storyline. They resurfaced thanks to a
01:09:00
donation to a charitable trust. Film is fabulous to the
01:09:05
charitable trust. Film is fabulous.
01:09:08
No, no indentations there. And they'll soon be available
01:09:12
for for for fans to watch in restored form.
01:09:15
There are somebody had it. Somebody had it, just holding on
01:09:18
to it. Somebody stole that shit.
01:09:21
Bootlegs bootleg copies of it. Like, I know, right?
01:09:25
So there are scenes featuring William Hartnell as the First
01:09:28
Doctor along with classic Dalek scheming that helped define the
01:09:33
early years of the show. For decades, large portions of
01:09:36
early Doctor Who episodes disappeared due to the BBC's
01:09:39
archiving practices During the early days of television.
01:09:43
As color television became the industry standard, many
01:09:46
monochrome recordings were viewed as outdated material with
01:09:49
a little long term value. Because of that mindset,
01:09:53
numerous recordings were wiped, reused, or lost.
01:09:56
Idiots. OK storage limitations played a
01:10:00
role as a film, as film reels were sometimes erased to make
01:10:04
room for newer programs. They really were dumb.
01:10:08
I mean, think about it back then like there was, there was no
01:10:11
collectibles back then. But they were also like,
01:10:13
nobody's going to want to watch this on rerun.
01:10:15
Nope, nobody watches reruns. What's a rerun?
01:10:18
What's a rerun? You know, like, just like
01:10:19
baseball cards. And nobody thought there was
01:10:21
going to be value in those litters.
01:10:22
Just like, oh, it's a novelty, throw it away.
01:10:25
The who's Honus Wagner doesn't matter.
01:10:27
Throw it away. You know, like move on with
01:10:30
life. That's crazy.
01:10:31
Yeah, Oh, sorry, I'm just throwing this out there right
01:10:35
now. But Frank is saying, guys,
01:10:38
Daredevil was so good, watch it live.
01:10:39
I'm sure Disney won't attack you.
01:10:41
Yeah, it won't. It won't come out.
01:10:42
OK, so we're going to end, we're going to end the news that we're
01:10:45
talking about. We're just going to watch
01:10:46
Daredevil live. Bye, everybody.
01:10:47
No, no, we're going to watch it live.
01:10:49
We're going to I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm going to add it to the
01:10:51
screen and we're going to watch it with everybody.
01:10:53
Oh yeah, right. I'm going to continue on here.
01:10:56
In 1981, the BBC officially committed to maintaining in
01:10:59
1981. It's 20 years later maintaining
01:11:03
a complete archive of its programming as part of its royal
01:11:06
charter. By that time, a staggering A
01:11:09
staggering 152 episodes of Doctors who were already
01:11:14
missing. Well, so OK, how many episodes
01:11:17
in the season used to be like, what, 2022?
01:11:21
Back then it would have been like 30.
01:11:24
OK, so like 5:00-ish seasons of the early Doctor Who was just
01:11:29
gone. Five seasons worth.
01:11:32
Wow, that's nuts. That number has slowly dropped
01:11:36
as recordings have been discovered in private
01:11:38
collections and international archives.
01:11:40
With the recovery of these two episodes, the total number of
01:11:44
missing episodes is now at 95. That's still a lot.
01:11:48
That's still like three seasons worth of fucking episodes
01:11:51
missing. Oh my gosh.
01:11:54
So restored versions of The Nightmare begins and The Devil's
01:11:57
Planet from The Daleks. Master Plan will begin streaming
01:12:01
in the UK on BBC iPlayer early next month, giving fans a chance
01:12:05
to experience these once lost episodes all over again.
01:12:11
Wow. Insanity.
01:12:13
That's cool though, at least at least they're bringing it back.
01:12:15
That's great. Yeah, yeah, it's it's it's
01:12:18
exciting to to hear that they're they're they're they're finding
01:12:21
their way back to these older episodes.
01:12:23
There's still 95 missing. That's ridiculous.
01:12:28
So let's let's move on here. The Serenity flies again.
01:12:35
You named your ship after God. I'm trying to remember the line
01:12:38
you you named your ship after a oh, the Battle of Serenity after
01:12:43
a dying war. After more than two decades of
01:12:48
fan campaigns, re watches and wishful thinking, Firefly is
01:12:52
officially staging a return and we're so excited for it.
01:12:56
Think me and James were talking about we need to do a live view
01:12:58
of the entire season because it was just one season.
01:13:00
But the short, it's 11 episode. Yeah, the short lived but
01:13:04
legendary sci-fi series that first aired on Fox in 2002 is
01:13:08
getting a second life as an animated revival.
01:13:11
Nathan Fillion and Nathan Fillion alone confirmed the
01:13:15
project is moving forward and the core crew of the Serenity is
01:13:19
coming back with coming back with it.
01:13:22
That includes future friend of the show, Alan Tiddick.
01:13:26
Let's say future friend of the show, 'cause we get to talk to
01:13:29
him. Gina Torres, Miranda Bacard,
01:13:31
Friend of the show, Adam Baldwin, Jewel Stati, Stati
01:13:35
State State OK Summerglow, which was a big crush of mine when I
01:13:41
was younger, and Shawn Maher, who's also amazing, all
01:13:46
reprising their roles in voice form.
01:13:48
It's about as close to the full reunion as fans could
01:13:51
realistically expect. There's one big change, though.
01:13:55
Ron Glass, who played Shepherd Book, passed away in 2016.
01:14:00
The revival will still include Book, but the role will be
01:14:03
recast. Fill in the dress that direct.
01:14:06
Fill in the dress that directly saying absolutely, that's the
01:14:09
plan. Yeah.
01:14:10
That part when they were looking for a wrong Glass type.
01:14:15
And here we are again. We're looking for a wrong class
01:14:18
type, and it's not going to be wrong Glass.
01:14:20
Obviously not. Wrong Glass, sadly.
01:14:24
Oh man. Right, the last missing piece is
01:14:27
a home. There's no official network or
01:14:30
streaming platform attached just yet, but good chance it's going
01:14:33
to be Disney Plus or Hulu. Yeah, it's going.
01:14:35
To because Disney owns all of that.
01:14:38
Yeah, it's going to be Hulu. It's got to.
01:14:40
Be Hulu it. I mean, Hulu makes the most
01:14:41
sense. Yeah.
01:14:43
Right. So, so where do you guys think
01:14:45
that Firefly, the animated series, the Serenity and the
01:14:48
whole crew are going to land? I, I really do want you guys to
01:14:53
let us know where you think that this is going to go, like where,
01:14:57
where it's going to land. Again, me and James are both
01:14:59
kind of saying Hulu because Disney owns Hulu and that Disney
01:15:03
owns Fox. So, you know, they had that.
01:15:05
They own the IP in itself and it makes the most sense for them to
01:15:10
do it there. My second guess, if not on Hulu,
01:15:16
I would say Amazon. Oh yeah, I could.
01:15:19
Yeah, you're right. Amazon would be like, yeah,
01:15:21
let's support fans. I'll I'll hook that up.
01:15:24
Yeah. But I think it's got to be Hulu,
01:15:26
especially since what's Nathan Trillion's other show, The
01:15:30
Rookie? The Rookie that's on ABC.
01:15:33
Yeah, so that's another Disney thing.
01:15:35
Yeah, so I think they're going to be like, oh, Nathan, you want
01:15:38
to push, push this as a reunion? OK, let's find a way to make
01:15:41
this happen under the Disney umbrella, you know, and move
01:15:47
forward from there. Right.
01:15:49
No, like I said, because it would fit on Disney on its own.
01:15:53
Disney Plus, you know, it was a Fox Show to begin with.
01:15:56
And Disney Plus has kind of some of those shows.
01:16:00
But Hulu is where they do put some of their more mature
01:16:03
content. And I think that it makes sense
01:16:07
to put it on Hulu mainly because if you put it on Disney Plus
01:16:10
with all the adult jokes that it has, you know, they're they'll
01:16:15
probably, yeah. Like kids will probably think
01:16:18
it's a regular cartoon and not get that it's, you know, kind of
01:16:21
just like an animated series picking up from from a sci-fi
01:16:24
show. But Hulu makes more sense
01:16:27
because there's already adult cartoons on Hulu, you know?
01:16:32
Yeah. So that's, that's that's my
01:16:36
thoughts on that. I'm excited for that whole
01:16:38
thing. So let's let's go on to this
01:16:42
next story here. This is some surprising, not
01:16:47
breaking. It happened over the weekend,
01:16:49
but it is some surprising news and it's still kind of like
01:16:52
developing and everything. But as of right now, we're going
01:16:56
to talk about what happened with Alan Richardson over the
01:16:59
weekend. Kind of a big deal.
01:17:02
It was really weird seeing it come out so fast and not all the
01:17:06
information was was there. Right.
01:17:09
And it was a trip because James when I told him what was going
01:17:12
on, he goes dude pics or it didn't happen and I sent him
01:17:16
videos and he's like, oh shit, it happened.
01:17:20
And it's like a video of him doing it.
01:17:21
So if you guys are unfamiliar with what what happened over the
01:17:24
weekend, there's a video circulating right now.
01:17:27
Alan Richardson basically got in a fight with one of his
01:17:30
neighbors. Not really got in a fight.
01:17:33
He it's more like he beat the living shit out of one of his
01:17:35
neighbors. I don't even.
01:17:37
I think that's exaggerating. I think TMZ broke this story
01:17:40
first, no? Dude, do you not see him on the
01:17:43
ground with him just uppercutting him?
01:17:45
Like, like just punches to the face.
01:17:47
That's not a, that's not, I mean, that's not, you know,
01:17:51
beating the living crap. Out he beat the piss out of the
01:17:53
guy man. Like, and then you look at his
01:17:55
face in in the interview after that on TMZ and his like he's
01:17:58
just got a big ass cut across his face.
01:18:01
I don't know how how how deep that goes, but it was
01:18:06
interesting seeing that video. OK, so setting the stage,
01:18:10
they're in their neighborhood somewhere like in Nashville or
01:18:13
something like that. Alan Richins riding his
01:18:16
motorcycle up and down the street is actually, I think he
01:18:19
has his sons with him as well, riding motor bikes up and down
01:18:23
the street. I think another neighbor took
01:18:26
offense to them being so loud, right?
01:18:29
And in riding up and down the street, maybe they're going too
01:18:32
fast. Whatever it may be, it's all,
01:18:33
you know, point of view, that sort of thing.
01:18:35
That being said, the neighbor got super pissed and confronted
01:18:40
Alan Richardson about it. Like, enough where he was, you
01:18:43
know, getting in Alan Richardson's face, jumping in
01:18:47
front of the bike as he was riding by, you know, like,
01:18:50
yelling at him, pushing at him. What I thought was interesting,
01:18:54
that neighbor was also on a bike, like, he was fixing his
01:18:58
own motorbike in the street. Yeah, And I was like, wait a
01:19:02
second, Are you just picking the fight?
01:19:04
Like, you know how loud bikes are?
01:19:06
Like you're not not just any bike.
01:19:09
It was like a it was like a dirt bike.
01:19:12
Like you know how loud those get?
01:19:13
Come on man. Yeah, yeah, it's So what what
01:19:17
what it looks like what happened as far as like the police report
01:19:20
and what the police are saying. Richardson was, you know, he was
01:19:24
riding up and down the street, but he has proof because he was
01:19:27
actually recording which that screwed over the other guy,
01:19:30
right? And he was actually recording,
01:19:31
right. He had a body Cam on and the
01:19:33
body Cam basically showed that he never went over 23 miles an
01:19:36
hour, right? So he he was actually not
01:19:40
driving that fast. He was actually driving the
01:19:42
speed limit. But I guess right.
01:19:45
And but I guess the guy, according to Richmond's body Cam
01:19:50
footage, the guy jumped in front of his bike that they, they had
01:19:54
gotten some kind of altercation, jumped in front of his bike.
01:19:57
And he goes, he goes, oh, run me over and, and Rich and tells
01:20:02
him, dude, get out of my way, move right.
01:20:05
And the guy goes, no, I'm not going.
01:20:07
And rich and goes, no, dude move right.
01:20:10
And I guess the other guy pushed him off the bike.
01:20:14
Right. Or like he pushed Richardson
01:20:16
didn't really do anything because you're basically trying
01:20:18
to push a brick wall, an idiot, right?
01:20:21
But then pushed him again, he went off balance.
01:20:25
That's kind of where the video starts.
01:20:26
You can kind of see like, you know, yeah, he's dropping the
01:20:30
bike. And, you know, like, if you know
01:20:32
anything about motorcycles, they're, they're not light,
01:20:35
right? Like, yeah, you know, the way
01:20:36
people move around on bikes, it looks like, oh, yeah, you can
01:20:38
lift it and everything like that.
01:20:40
You can't in reality, if a bike falls on your leg, it's going to
01:20:43
break your leg, right. And Rich and had to jump out of
01:20:46
the way. And next thing you know, he just
01:20:48
walked up to the dune, just started like laying into it.
01:20:53
Right, so the there was actually, so there was the body
01:20:55
Cam video and then a video from somebody's window.
01:20:58
It's one of the neighbors, yeah. Which conveniently didn't show
01:21:03
the first part of the altercation.
01:21:05
It only showed Alan Richardson jumping off the bike and then
01:21:09
laying into the dude. Yeah, so visually it all you
01:21:14
really saw was the confrontation and then Alan Richardson laying
01:21:18
into the dude. So it made it seem like Alan
01:21:22
Richardson was at fault. Yeah.
01:21:24
Through this, he's so glad he had that body Cam.
01:21:26
On right, wait. Is Reacher?
01:21:29
Is Reacher really a jerk? What's happening here?
01:21:31
But. And then and then like right
01:21:33
after that, the dudes on TMZ saying, you know, he's got it
01:21:36
like a full interview talking about like, yeah, no, I was
01:21:39
being very nice and I was being polite.
01:21:41
And I, I mean, I will admit that I that, that I pushed him, but
01:21:46
you know, he didn't have to go and go where he went.
01:21:48
And he ended up laying even. He said he, he beat my ass, but
01:21:52
he started laying into him and all that.
01:21:54
And, and you know, again, then you go see the foot, the, the,
01:21:57
the body Cam footage and it's like, it's not at all what the
01:22:00
dude described. So this dude was just speaking
01:22:03
horseshit. And, and it's like, you know,
01:22:07
when you look at what happened and the danger that the dude put
01:22:11
himself in, but then kind of what he the, the, the, the, the
01:22:16
potential danger he put Alan Richton in.
01:22:19
I don't blame Richton for punching him in the mouth.
01:22:22
Oh yeah. Like he came at it and like
01:22:24
dropped his bike. He almost the bike almost fell
01:22:27
on him. His kids were right there.
01:22:30
Like if he he could have easily stepped out in front of one of
01:22:34
the kids you. Know.
01:22:36
And the kids probably not might not have stopped in time.
01:22:40
So yeah. This, this guy was looking for a
01:22:45
problem. He was looking for a
01:22:46
confrontation, which made me think about that first video
01:22:50
that came out and how it was only showing this the Alan
01:22:55
Richardson beating the guy up part.
01:22:57
Like. That's interesting.
01:23:00
Like maybe it was a setup to try and make him look bad because I
01:23:02
mean, he is again, not to get in on the way the world is right
01:23:06
now, but he is very, very vocally against a lot of the a
01:23:14
lot of the things that are going on in the world right now.
01:23:18
So it was interesting because the video that came out was was
01:23:21
him beating up the dude. The second video that came out
01:23:24
was the guy's note to TMZ, like, oh, I'm just trying to keep
01:23:28
people safe in my neighborhood and there's kids and blah, blah,
01:23:30
blah. And he's got like a MAGA hat.
01:23:33
Like notably has a Donald Trump hat behind him.
01:23:36
I like the the the way that he did that right.
01:23:39
Like he staged that hat, right? So he's like, I want to be a
01:23:42
superhero and I'm trying to stage.
01:23:44
Alan Rickson is the bad guy. And you know, I'm the good guy.
01:23:47
And obviously I'm I'm the greatest person ever because I
01:23:50
have a MAGA hat. And then it comes out this dude
01:23:52
basically started shit, you know, but basically he he he, he
01:23:56
played stupid games and got a stupid answer.
01:24:00
You know, it's like the one when I looked at the video, it was
01:24:05
like, you see Alan Rickson. You can see, you know, just like
01:24:09
Alan Richardson's shoulder is bigger than the dude's head.
01:24:12
This dude fucked around and found out.
01:24:15
And even on that, like you know the guy, him, him himself, he
01:24:19
was not a small guy. If you look at him like he's,
01:24:23
he's pretty built himself, just not half as built as Alan
01:24:28
Richardson. Yeah, that is, that is true.
01:24:31
He looked like a big guy, like maybe not quite as tall, but he
01:24:36
he looked, he was. SIM similar in height, Alan
01:24:38
Richardson is what 6 foot 46 foot 5?
01:24:41
Yeah, what? Happened.
01:24:42
It was at least 6 foot one. Like the guy was working.
01:24:46
This dude had a super long driveway and he's working on his
01:24:49
bike in the street. It just felt really weird, like
01:24:53
the whole setup was just like something's going on here.
01:24:57
It just felt off. Yeah, yeah, and, and and again,
01:25:00
notably, his sons just kind of let it happen.
01:25:06
His sons are like, Dad's got to do what Dad's got to do.
01:25:09
Yep. So, you know, so I, I mean,
01:25:12
that's, that's kind of the most we're going to say on this.
01:25:14
But again, it was kind of like, you know, a, a big story over
01:25:18
the weekend that, you know, they were trying to make it seem like
01:25:21
he was going to face charges, but police actually came out and
01:25:25
said he's not facing criminal charges with self-defense.
01:25:28
Right, right. And like the like I think night
01:25:31
of OS said it in the chat, like the sheriff came out and like
01:25:34
there's no charges, no charges against Alan Richardson moving
01:25:37
on. Yeah.
01:25:39
So let's jump into Yeah, he's playing victim for attention.
01:25:43
That makes sense 100% man. So let's really good.
01:25:49
Hat. It's a really good hat.
01:25:52
My, my, my, my hat is real good. It's.
01:25:57
Great colors, Red, white and blue.
01:25:59
Just maybe red and white, no blue.
01:26:03
It's a lot of red. There's extra red on my hat.
01:26:06
It's the reddest. It's the reddest of my hats.
01:26:08
The reddest. All right, so ladies and
01:26:11
gentlemen, let's go into this last segment.
01:26:12
It's time for the trend up. Let's get into our last story.
01:26:16
Oh, sorry, James. Oh, before we get into our last
01:26:21
story. Distance learning is part of the

Network at gfpods.com. That's right.
01:26:42
All right, let's jump into this last story here.
01:26:45
We can make this one quick. All right, the line between
01:27:01
short form content and traditional TV keeps getting
01:27:05
thinner. This is an interesting one.
01:27:07
I didn't see it coming, but I just wanted to get your thoughts
01:27:10
on it. Two major players are pushing
01:27:12
that evolution even further to be and TikTok have joined forces
01:27:17
to launch a new incubator designed to help digital
01:27:21
creators make the leap into long form series.
01:27:24
It's a move that could reshape how the next wave of shows get
01:27:28
made and who gets to make them. So this one's super interesting,
01:27:32
and I learned a lot more about Toby than I than.
01:27:35
I so we're we're going to be on Toby soon is basically what.
01:27:37
We're going to be on Toby and I'm OK with that.
01:27:39
The program is built to take creators who built audiences on
01:27:43
TikTok and give them the tools to develop original shows that
01:27:46
will premiere exclusively on Toby.
01:27:49
These projects will span both scripted and unscripted content,
01:27:53
giving creators room to experiment with storytelling
01:27:56
beyond the bite size videos. Importantly, the creators
01:28:00
themselves will remain the driving seat creative
01:28:04
creatively, with Toby stepping in to provide support and
01:28:07
resources to help bring those ideas to life.
01:28:11
I found that very interesting. Yeah.
01:28:14
They're saying, hey, you're building an audience, you're
01:28:16
making content. How about we guide you into
01:28:20
making that content for a different platform than just.
01:28:24
We need them to do the reverse for us, like, hey, we've already
01:28:27
got content that works for that. Bring us the audience.
01:28:31
It's super interesting to take format like the short form
01:28:35
TikTok format and like how do we convert it into a longer form
01:28:40
and turn it into a channel or something on YouTube?
01:28:42
But interesting. TikTok will play a key role in
01:28:45
identifying which creators are ready for that next step, with
01:28:48
the first wave of participants expected to be revealed sometime
01:28:52
this summer. Toby has been making a clear
01:28:55
push into creative driven content, adding more than 16
01:28:59
episodes from over 200 creators in just the past ten months,
01:29:04
which is interesting if you think about, I don't know, shows
01:29:08
or channels like on YouTube, like Ryan's World, like Ryan's
01:29:13
World, Ryan's tour review. They're taking those YouTube
01:29:17
episodes or YouTube content and bringing it to like another
01:29:22
content. So it's get this content that
01:29:23
you used to just live on YouTube is getting a second life as like
01:29:27
a channel like on Tubi. It's it's really interesting and
01:29:32
both platforms bring serious reach to the table.
01:29:35
Toby has grown into one of the biggest free streaming services
01:29:39
out there, boasting over 100 million monthly active users
01:29:44
since being acquired by Fox in 2020.
01:29:48
So this is like. So Disney owns this?
01:29:51
Disney Fox saying how do we start taking advantage of the
01:29:55
short form content? What can we do with this
01:29:58
console? TikTok, while no longer in its
01:30:01
weird, you know, growing stage, Explosive stage in the US still
01:30:04
commands more than 200 million monthly users domestically and
01:30:09
far more worldwide. Frank and I both being a part of
01:30:14
that 200 million. Yeah, I think it's, I think it's
01:30:17
really so there's so many questions.
01:30:19
I just think it was just a topic that is going to come up and
01:30:22
like start expanding and keep growing the more YouTube and
01:30:26
TikTok start working together. So I don't know.
01:30:29
Will short content make a name for itself on ATV style
01:30:32
platform? What do you think about TikTok
01:30:37
content translating to Tubi? So some of the content on TikTok
01:30:44
makes sense. Not all the content on TikTok
01:30:45
makes sense because you know, some of the qualities is really
01:30:50
bad. But I mean, there are certain
01:30:51
things, right? You know, there are Tik Tokers
01:30:54
that I see every now and then that have really good content.
01:30:57
There's a lot of good news, like short form news programming
01:31:00
that's that's on TikTok. There's a lot of good
01:31:02
informational things that are on TikTok, you know, as far as
01:31:07
like, you know, like like interesting history things and
01:31:09
stuff like that. Like, you know, there's a lot of
01:31:11
fun stuff that is on TikTok, but then there's also people who
01:31:14
make just like weird, you know, comedy Tik Toks.
01:31:16
And it's like that wouldn't be good as a long form kind of
01:31:20
thing. Again, it it it it's interesting
01:31:25
that, you know, Tubi, which is owned by Fox, which is owned by
01:31:29
Disney and TikTok, which is owned by the Ellisons, is like,
01:31:33
you know, this big kind of partnership that's happening
01:31:35
right there. It's like, it's like the Hulu of
01:31:38
TV shows, you know? Oh, geek freak says Murdoch owns
01:31:43
it. Oh, does Murdoch still own Tubi?
01:31:46
Because I. I think it's interesting though,
01:31:49
because if you think about short form content and this next
01:31:53
generation that's so used to short form content, but making
01:31:57
it easier for them to just like access that content on like a
01:32:01
like a Toby. Think of like how like
01:32:04
ridiculousness works, you know? Yeah, that's a weird form of
01:32:09
short for short form content that's just bundled together in
01:32:13
in a in a package. Well, with like commentary and
01:32:15
everything like that. I didn't, I didn't realize
01:32:17
Toby's owned by by Rupert Murdoch.
01:32:19
Man, we we watch a lot of Toby here.
01:32:22
There you go. So I don't know how this you
01:32:27
know what I think about like so OK, it's TikTok, It's it's to be
01:32:31
working together like those two platforms.
01:32:34
What does this mean for like a a YouTube?
01:32:37
I think that's kind of what they're trying to do.
01:32:40
I think what they're trying to do is find a way to, you know,
01:32:44
skin people away from, from YouTube, because YouTube is
01:32:47
still kind of like the king of content, right?
01:32:50
Like between short form content and long form content, YouTube
01:32:55
owns that market. And you know, I, I think this
01:32:58
partnership is like, OK, well, TikTok has one of the probably
01:33:02
biggest markets for short form and Toby already has a long form
01:33:07
content market. So why don't we just try and
01:33:10
create a kind of like YouTube competition?
01:33:16
The thing is, is it's it's going to be it's I feel like it's
01:33:20
going to go the same route as when people try to find
01:33:23
something that would not TikTok out out, you know, or, you know,
01:33:26
back when Vine was still around, everybody was trying to find the
01:33:29
vine killer, right? Like, you know, it's, it's one
01:33:32
of those things where, you know, they're trying to capitalize on
01:33:36
this massive market that TikTok has, but I don't think it's
01:33:39
going to translate the same way. Interesting, interesting.
01:33:44
I think it's a way for them just going back to the YouTube thing.
01:33:47
I think it's a way for them to circumvent YouTube.
01:33:50
Like hey, you want you want this content great, it's on TikTok on
01:33:55
your favorite tik tokers channels.
01:33:58
That's great. You want to, you know, kind of
01:34:00
consume content without like in ATV type format.
01:34:04
Like it's, it's going to be on Toby.
01:34:07
You don't have to go to YouTube at all anymore.
01:34:09
It's it's straight to it's straight to Toby.
01:34:12
Just turn it on and just leave it on.
01:34:14
Kind of like how people like turn the turn the office on.
01:34:16
You just like have it on. I think it's their way of of
01:34:19
doing that. But I don't know.
01:34:22
I think I don't know. I just find this fascinating
01:34:24
that things are changing so fast.
01:34:28
Yeah. And and like the other thing on
01:34:31
this too is I can see this going the route of, you know, Twitch
01:34:38
and Kik and YouTube as far as like, you know, who was trying
01:34:42
to be the king of like game streaming, right?
01:34:46
And and you know, it kind of ultimately still landed on
01:34:50
twitch. TikTok has been picking up a lot
01:34:53
more with game streaming and everything like that.
01:34:54
But like twitch is still kind of like the king of game stream.
01:34:57
So like, I think like, you know, there's going to be more
01:35:00
competition in the market where like TikTok and Tubi are going
01:35:03
to, you know, team up, but YouTube is still going to be the
01:35:05
king of that, that kind of like that, that niche market.
01:35:09
Yeah, it could be. Or you know how like Spotify got
01:35:14
a contract with Joe Rogan. It's like, hey, for X amount of
01:35:17
time, you're an exclusive Spotify product, right?
01:35:22
You, it's still your show, but it only gets put on Spotify for
01:35:26
I think it was two years or whatever.
01:35:28
It was like something like that where it's like, hey, so TikTok,
01:35:32
your creators are going to develop content, but it's never
01:35:35
going to be on YouTube. It'll come from TikTok and then
01:35:38
you'll go to Tubi. That's it.
01:35:40
Just those two platforms, not Instagram, not YouTube, that
01:35:45
sort of thing. So it'll be interesting to see
01:35:48
how that goes. Yeah, yeah.
01:35:53
All right. I think that was our.
01:35:55
Yeah, that's our last story. All right, well, with that being
01:36:00
said, ladies and gentlemen, let's talk schedule.
01:36:02
