As I've said multiple times, it's like the last week of school. We're just signing yearbooks, so not every Monday. And also, I mean, you could set up for a support level and just give us money, but we're not going to be doing this anymore.
00:01:45 Brandon

Just give me this money, yeah.
00:01:59 Andrew
Yeah. So.

00:02:14 Brandon
As of this recording, you know Andrew, we'll find ourselves in any situation today for the next two hours, and let's see 23 minutes. I'm. Are you younger than you? That's not.
00:02:26 Brandon
Right.
00:02:31 Andrew
Yes, yes, yes, yes, that's.
00:02:33 Brandon
Right. It's not how math works, but it it is how math works. When you're a child like myself.
00:02:39 Andrew
Yes.
00:02:42 Brandon
So yes, by the time you love listeners are listening to, this will be the same age again. And I just have one question for you. What's it like being old?
00:02:54 Andrew
Terrible.
00:02:55 Andrew
I feel like I feel like Rice Krispies when I get up. It's a snap, crackle and pop. You know that little.
00:03:01 Brandon
Wow, that's uh, that's terrifying.
00:03:01 Andrew
Thing.
00:03:05 Andrew
Yeah. Yeah, it's really bad. So enjoy that and happy early birthday for sure.
00:03:10 Brandon
Thank you. Appreciate it.
00:03:13 Andrew
Yeah. Well, anyway, so we'll be taking, we were just talking about this an indefinite to permanent hiatus for podcasting. You know, maybe we'll come back with a limited series, maybe we'll maybe we'll do something in in a.
00:03:21 Brandon
Yeah.
00:03:27 Andrew
Few years, maybe we'll do.
00:03:28 Andrew
Something tomorrow we don't know. We don't know.
00:03:30 Brandon
Yeah.
00:03:32 Brandon
And if you're wanting the loss of this podcast, which is?
00:03:36 Brandon
Means you're 1 of.
00:03:37 Brandon
The 36 people that still listen weekly.
00:03:41 Andrew
Heading over to the Ben Shapiro show? No, I'm just kidding.
00:03:44 Brandon
You can look forward to our five year anniversary special at the end of this month.
00:03:50 Brandon
That's what may I think it comes out of the wire. Yeah. Two more episodes from here it comes.
00:03:52 Andrew
Two more episodes, yeah.
00:03:57 Brandon
On the 26th of May, Wow, we have one more regular episode record between now and then. So if you want to say anything to us, say goodbye, record something and send it to the 90s at gmail.com. That's name nannies with 90S and will most likely feature it.
00:04:17 Brandon
Down here because I forgot to solicit any goodbyes, farewells and good lucks from our friends out there that are still doing it too.
00:04:22 Andrew
I like to say.
00:04:25 Andrew
I'm proud of five years we we.
00:04:28 Andrew
He he had a lot of guests and a lot of those podcasts, like many were on, were were only out for a short time. I mean some some of them still sure, but longevity, that's where we we succeeded for sure.
00:04:35 Brandon
Mm-hmm.
00:04:41 Brandon
And shout out to our friends pod show, our Brother Horseman and his fellow metro.
00:04:50 Brandon
Whoops. From what I read, gas is stepping away at the end of the month as well. Danger is going to continue the show.
00:04:59 Brandon
No, but yeah, it's uh.
00:05:01 Andrew
And I'm still going to slip into my terribly offensive English accent. Cheerio. Just during the day, periodically. I actually do that. So.
00:05:05 Brandon
Yeah, absolutely.
00:05:09 Brandon
I mean, if we're being honest, we were wondering if we were wondering if we would still be doing mainly 90s minutes even after we finished our podcast. So that was.
00:05:24 Brandon
Yeah, it's. But they started around the same the same time we did back during the pandemic and is a is a good five year right alongside them.
00:05:34 Andrew
Yeah, I mean, every time the Pope dies, we stop. Our podcast makes us start.
00:05:37 Brandon
Yeah. And, you know, sometimes the podcast conclave takes a little while, sometimes some, some, some.
00:05:50 Brandon
Pot Pie pizza mother effer.
00:05:53 Brandon
From Chicago becomes uh. The two days, yeah.
00:05:55 Andrew
Ohh wow, I saw something. It was like when white smoke rises from the top of the McDonald's, it means the ice cream.
00:06:03 Andrew
Maker is working.
00:06:07 Andrew
No. Yeah, I'm surprised that right now is the time that the first American Pope was selected.
00:06:15 Andrew
Ever.
00:06:16 Brandon
You know.
00:06:17 Andrew
Considering our the our current position and reputation in the world.
00:06:22 Brandon
I mean, at least uh, he's not a mega supporter.
00:06:29 Andrew
Yeah, as far as we know.
00:06:30 Andrew
He has he has under that like plenty bishops hat. He has a MAGA hat.
00:06:35 Brandon
Yeah, from. From what I've seen from more right up on he he's a little bit on the liberal side for at least for a conservative counselling.
00:06:48 Andrew
And also.
00:06:49 Andrew
Being from Chicago, he's absolutely on the take. There's just no question. I mean, let's be honest. That is organized crime central and corrupt politicians. Remember what's that?
00:07:00 Andrew
Guy's name.
00:07:02 Andrew
Big Golovin or whatever big bergeler wich.
00:07:05 Brandon
Was he the one that?
00:07:06 Andrew
The governor or whatever.
00:07:08 Brandon
That had, like those DM's with that one stripper organ.
00:07:14 Andrew
It was blagojevic.
00:07:18 Andrew
Blagojevic.
00:07:21 Brandon
That doesn't sound.
00:07:21 Andrew
And and Trump pardoned him, by the way.
00:07:22 Brandon
Like, that's how we're gonna make that name for ohh.
00:07:25 Andrew
Yeah, yeah.
00:07:26 Brandon
Who made-up meme for the guy or for like a A?
00:07:31 Brandon
Do we still?
00:07:31 Brandon
Call them and pimps.
00:07:33 Andrew
I don't know.
00:07:34 Brandon
My name is Rod. *******, *****.
00:07:37 Andrew
It's Blagojevich. Well, gojkovic, it's OK.
00:07:45 Brandon
I I I don't.
00:07:46 Brandon
Hear any difference between what you said and what I just said?
00:07:50 Andrew
Yeah. So anyway, that's that's the thing that happened. The good thing is not a White Sox fan cause then I've got some real serious questions.
00:08:00 Andrew
The White Sox are awful. He's a Cubs fan.
00:08:03 Brandon
OK. Ohh yeah, I feel like that's worse though like personalities really wise.
00:08:08 Andrew
True, but the White Sox were on track to finish like, 11 and something like with eleven wins, they have really been bad the last couple of years.
00:08:17 Brandon
I mean.
00:08:19 Brandon
Do we have much to talk about giving what we're wearing? Are they doing well this year? But again, it's before the All Star break so.
00:08:23 Andrew
I mean.
00:08:25 Andrew
They are.
00:08:27 Andrew
All the memes I was seeing though, that were super funny was that they chose a Pope faster than sugar. Sanders got chosen by the Cleveland Browns.
00:08:38 Andrew
So there you go. We have a new Pope. It literally does not affect my life whatsoever.
00:08:40 Brandon
Yeah.
00:08:44 Andrew
Because I don't.
00:08:44 Brandon
It affects me once a year because who knows what happens when we go to church during the Christmas time and maybe he'll be like, hey, you'll have to speak Latin again.
00:08:58 Andrew
Well, well, just be careful because once they hear all that, they're going to start deporting you. Why? Why you speaking Mexican? That's Latin.
00:09:05 Brandon
That's true and you?
00:09:08 Brandon
Yes, I mean I I believe the right wing conservatives in this country have already started poking holes at him. Like, apparently he addressed, he addressed the world in Latin, Italian and Spanish and some right wing.
00:09:27 Brandon
Things here like.
00:09:29 Brandon
Why don't you speak American?
00:09:37 Brandon
Rich.
00:09:37 Andrew
The guide of it. We'll go with it.
00:09:40 Andrew
We'll gouge of it. That's what it is.
00:09:42 Andrew
What the hell?
00:09:43 Brandon
While we're younger.
00:09:45 Andrew
I don't know. Blunderbuss. What are we talking about?
00:09:49 Andrew
They're just doing free word association for an hour.
00:09:55 Brandon
Turning into one of the final episodes.
00:09:57 Brandon
In late 90s.
00:09:59 Andrew
This is good stuff. This is this.
00:10:01 Andrew
Is good content right here?
00:10:02 Brandon
I mean some reference and he's empty hours of sleep and he came off an 11 hour shift, an unexpected 7 hour shift.
00:10:06 Andrew
Yeah, I worked overnight and then slept.
00:10:08 Andrew
Yeah. Oh, gosh.
00:10:10 Andrew
Yeah, well anyway.
00:10:12 Brandon
Yeah, it's 9:00. It's an 11 seconds. Never forget it.
00:10:13 Andrew
Was it 10 minutes? It felt like?
00:10:14 Andrew
10 minutes I probably was.
00:10:20 Andrew
What else can we talk about briefly, OK.
00:10:21 Brandon
Well, Speaking of, forgetting is fine together, the address probably 10 minutes. Yeah, it's a little inside baseball for you all there. We usually do 10 minutes of chitchat, 10 minutes of the first subject, 10 minutes. The second subject. That makes it a 30 minute podcast.
00:10:38 Brandon
That's, that was. That's in the format since season. Did you start chitchat in season 1, I.
00:10:43 Brandon
Don't remember, OK?
00:10:44 Andrew
Yeah, we did. We always have a bit of a chitchat.
00:10:46 Brandon
Yeah. And then that that back then it was 3 topics, 10 minutes.
00:10:53
Yeah.
00:10:54 Andrew
That's a lot.
00:10:55 Brandon
You know, should we break?
00:10:56 Brandon
This should we be inside baseball in the final episode.
00:10:56 Andrew
Are from.
00:10:58 Andrew
We always have a.
00:10:59 Andrew
BuzzFeed quiz because we have no.
00:11:00 Brandon
Well, I mean, that's season 4. Yeah, because we didn't want to use a on A to write anything other than that time that during the half first half of season.
00:11:11 Brandon
Where we had an AI right stuff.
00:11:15 Andrew
Yeah, I feel like the problem is if you use AI, you're also like using all of the drinking water from a village in Africa with each time you press enter. Yeah. So, you know, it's like, it's like almonds, almonds and almond milk are horrible for the environment. The amount of water it takes an almond tree to grow, it's crazy. Plus, when you squeeze the almonds, you can hear them.
00:11:21 Brandon
Yes. So one question, Yep.
00:11:28 Brandon
Absolutely.
00:11:32 Brandon
It's like.
00:11:34 Brandon
Name.
00:11:37 Andrew
What if you, if you listen closely, you can hear them scream. Yeah, just give.
00:11:40 Brandon
Is that? Is that a true fact or is that you playing around? OK, alright, so you can goofing around so little goof gaff we're going to take a deep discussion to the Treatise of John Locke about life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. No, we're going to.
00:12:00 Brandon
Review again. This time it's on fan 4. Stick but not fan 4. Stick it's on the Fantastic Four which.
00:12:09 Andrew
And Thorn snake.
00:12:10 Brandon
Yes, Andrews enthused. If you're familiar with the Fantastic Four.
00:12:19 Andrew
I am I am. I think I saw the one from like maybe the mid 2000s.
00:12:26 Brandon
The one with I want to say Jessica.
00:12:31 Brandon
Susan storm.
00:12:32 Andrew
That.
00:12:33 Andrew
Sounds right.
00:12:34 Brandon
Chris Evans was uh Johnny Storm, the fire guy.
00:12:40 Andrew
This is sounding correct.
00:12:42 Brandon
Uh, that means you've seen more Fantastic Four movies.
00:12:44 Brandon
Than I have.
00:12:45 Andrew
And isn't. Isn't John Krasinski somehow a Fantastic Four in some?
00:12:49 Brandon
Yes. So in the MCU in Doctor Strange, in the Multiverse of Madness in one of the multiverses that they went to or one of the worlds they went to in the multiverse, John Krasinski was fan cast as Mr. Fantastic.
00:12:51 Andrew
Iteration.
00:13:06 Brandon
Mr. Bombastic, he was Shaggy, who wasn't me, but the but that's just like he is a what they call them doppelganger. No, no multiverse person.
00:13:20 Brandon
No clone.
00:13:26 Brandon
Wow, we are tired.
00:13:29 Andrew
Alternate timeline.
00:13:31 Brandon
Essentially yes these.
00:13:33 Brandon
He's a.
00:13:36 Brandon
They they literally have a word for it. Variant is a variant of the what the new MCU version, who's going to be played by, do you know? Or am I just going to say that? OK, then I won't tell you until the trailer, but we're going to.
00:13:52 Andrew
I do not know.
00:13:56 Brandon
Look back at and. Did you know about the 1994 Fantastic Four movie that was never released?
00:14:02 Andrew
You know I don't.
00:14:04 Brandon
Not even like the the what? You don't know. The lawyer behind this, OK.
00:14:08 Andrew
Well, as you know, I'm not a a connoisseur of.
00:14:12 Brandon
Of anything.
00:14:14 Brandon
No, sorry, that that was not necessary. Dig what I what I mean is it's like it's an old pop culture thing where Fox was about to lose their rights to the Fantastic Four, which they bought at some point. And they like, quickly made this movie. It's terrible. They never released it.
00:14:36 Brandon
That since they produced it, they were able to cheat the rice.
00:14:39 Andrew
I see that makes sense. It makes sense. So it's kind of.
00:14:42 Andrew
Like a technicality.
00:14:43 Brandon
Yes, and pirate copies have circulated around since 1994, which is when it was originally supposed to come out.
00:14:52 Brandon
But here's we're gonna watch the trailer for that.
00:14:53 Andrew
I'm curious.
00:14:57 Brandon
Fantastic Four.
00:15:02 Brandon
Oh yeah.
00:15:04 Andrew
It's German but English.
00:15:06 Andrew
It's going to be so ******* sorry.
00:15:12 Fantastic Four Trailer
I was on the pages of the world's greatest comic book Adventure 4 heroes on a daring mission in space. Something.
00:15:15 Andrew
Off brand voiceover Guy, he looks like a new.
00:15:19 Andrew
Station.
00:15:22 Brandon
I mean, I'm assuming this isn't final.
00:15:26 Fantastic Four Trailer
Genetically transformed and they become the most powerful superheroes of all time. Oh.
00:15:26 Andrew
No.
00:15:32 Brandon
Oh my God.
00:15:38 Andrew
This is outrageous.
00:15:43 Andrew
We just, you know, we just use animation. This looks like a really bad like Power Rangers and teenage.
00:15:46 Fantastic Four Trailer
Yeah.
00:15:51 Andrew
Mutant Ninja Turtles.
00:15:52 Brandon
Yeah, I mean.
00:15:53 Brandon
I looked like.
00:15:56 Fantastic Four Trailer
And all their strength.
00:16:01 Brandon
Was he just tripping him?
00:16:06 Fantastic Four Trailer
To put an end to their arch.
00:16:06 Andrew
That was a good scream soundtrack.
00:16:08 Brandon
And not the love on screen.
00:16:16 Fantastic Four Trailer
The time all match tools, voice, face, room, face there. Fantastic Four.
00:16:24 Andrew
It was the second news station.
00:16:31 Andrew
Fantastic Four news at 6:30.
00:16:35 Brandon
Come to a theater near. Except it never did. Yes. So the Fantastic Four was an unreleased English language German superhero film based on the Marvel Comics superhero team of the same name, created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. The film features the team's origin in first battle with Doctor Dean.
00:16:56 Brandon
It was produced by a low budget specialist, Roger Corman. Burden. Yep, German.
00:17:02 Andrew
I think you're.
00:17:04 Brandon
Hiking, which allowed hiking to keep the Fantastic Four film.
00:17:10 Brandon
Rights. It was not officially released as I said, but pirated copies. They be out there.
00:17:17 Andrew
Well, if they're specialists at low budget, I'd hate to see a.
00:17:20 Andrew
Bad low budget person.
00:17:21 Brandon
Well, I mean, it was 1994, this is Pre Jurassic Park CG.
00:17:29 Andrew
But also, they weren't really trying to go anywhere with it.
00:17:32 Brandon
True. Yeah. It stars Alex Hyde. White is Reed Richards slash Mr. fantasy.
00:17:41 Brandon
Rebecca Staub, Susan Storm, Mercedes McNab played a younger version of her Mercedes, McNab playing harmony in the popular vampire series Jay Underwood played Johnny Storm, Human George Michael Bailey Smith has been green.

Yeah, it was. It was. It was that that.
00:18:44 Brandon
Youtube.com/naming night at naming 90s to see if I've uploaded the video so you can watch the trailer with us. But yeah, that was.

00:21:38
Marked for death.
00:21:40 Andrew
Yep.
00:21:46 Fantastic Four Trailer
It's my fault. I stretched the bounds of space, yeah.
00:21:48 Andrew
That guy looks like a low budget Freddie Prince junior.
00:21:56 Brandon
That's what we should have.
00:21:57 Brandon
Done.
00:21:58
Are we safe?
00:22:00 Andrew
I'm asking that question right now. Are we safe?
00:22:01 Fantastic Four Trailer
I don't.
00:22:02 Fantastic Four Trailer
Know.
00:22:08
I'm not giving up.
00:22:14 Fantastic Four Trailer
Together we will fight it together.
00:22:21 Andrew
You know, the explosion wasn't great.
00:22:26 Brandon
Like the thing looks good.
00:22:27
Nice to be honest.
00:22:32 Andrew
Yeah, I agree.
00:22:35 Brandon
And that's usually and.
00:22:36 Brandon
This this stretchy powers here. That's.
00:22:38 Fantastic Four Trailer
Usually by his powers.
00:22:41 Fantastic Four Trailer
We will protect you.
00:22:49 Andrew
So it's a period piece.
00:22:51 Brandon
It is.
00:22:57 Andrew
That was the miniature situation if I've.
00:23:00 Andrew
Ever seen it?
00:23:02 Brandon
Yeah. So that's the trailer for Fantastic Four first Steps, an upcoming superhero film based on Marvel Comics superhero Team Z. Fantastic Four. It's the 37th film in the MCU. Geez, and it's the second reboot of the Fantastic Four film.
00:23:22 Brandon
It stars Pedro Pascal as Mr. Fantastic, Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm, so that's the invisible woman Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm. Human torch. Maybe you remember him from.
00:23:39 Brandon
BBC shows such as Dickinson oh sorry, Dickensian Howard's end or Les Miserables.
00:23:48 Fantastic Four Trailer
Well.
00:23:49 Brandon
Which is French for the Miserables.
00:23:55 Brandon
Yvonne Mosbacher.
00:23:57 Brandon
Back, back, back, back.
00:24:00 Andrew
This is a series of sounds in the.
00:24:01 Andrew
Name of a card game.
00:24:02 Brandon
Has been.
00:24:06 Brandon
The thing he's best known from the bear the drama series.
00:24:11 Andrew
That's that chef show.
00:24:13 Brandon
Yeah. From Chicago, right? They do the beef tips.
00:24:16 Andrew
Pope makes a cameo. I haven't seen it out. I've never seen anything.
00:24:20 Brandon
I think it's good.
00:24:21 Fantastic Four Trailer
Thank you.
00:24:22 Brandon
Ralph, in in, in, in and I can't do names anymore. Innocent as Galactus. Julia Garner as a silver surfer. Andrew the you may know this, but the Silver Surfer, at least previously, has been depicted as a man. So that's going to make a bunch of people angry.
00:24:43 Brandon
For no reason at all.
00:24:44 Andrew
Yeah.
00:24:46 Brandon
Natasha leones. Init, John. Alt Malkovich. Malkovich is in it.
00:24:55 Brandon
Did I? Did I say all of the Fantastics OK, yeah.
00:24:57 Andrew
I think you did.
00:25:03 Brandon
That's. That's all we know about it. The premises on the 60s inspired retro futuristic parallel Earth. The Fantastic Four must protect the world from the planet, devouring cosmic being, Galactus and his herald. The Silver Surfer spoilers. I don't think it goes well, because at the end of of Thunderbolts.
00:25:04 Andrew
Sweet.
00:25:22 Brandon
Their ship shows up.
00:25:25 Andrew
I don't like anything as you know, but there's nothing I like less than a retro futuristic backdrop.
00:25:26 Brandon
Yep.
00:25:31 Brandon
Ohh interesting this will this will then help Fantastic Four 1994 in the Buddha reboot running zone right.
00:25:40 Andrew
Yeah. No, because The thing is with the first one, I I'd rather put like a a cigarette lighter out in my eyeball and watch that hot mess.
00:25:45 Brandon
That's cheesy.
00:25:49 Brandon
Well, it's a little cheesy. Comedies you could you could have you have fun watching it laughing at all the all the bad parts, you know, you know, and you're going to hate your Pascal.
00:25:58 Andrew
No, I mean there is bad.
00:26:02 Andrew
There is comically bad there is unwatchable that, to me looked unwatchable, which is not surprising. I think it was really meant.
00:26:09 Brandon
Yeah, yeah, that's a good point.
00:26:10 Andrew
To be watchable.
00:26:13 Brandon
Question.
00:26:14 Brandon
You don't like retro futuristic things.
00:26:18 Andrew
That general vibe doesn't work for me now.
00:26:20 Brandon
OK, cool.
00:26:23 Brandon
UM.
00:26:23 Fantastic Four Trailer
Because.
00:26:24 Andrew
What people thought?
00:26:25 Andrew
The future would be like back then.
00:26:28 Andrew
Was out, was stupid.
00:26:30 Brandon
True. So then.
00:26:32 Andrew
Because it was like still.
00:26:34 Andrew
60s shapes but but.
00:26:36 Brandon
Yes.
00:26:39 Andrew
In a futuristic way, it was weird. I don't know. They didn't know everything was just going to be like rectangular and Gray in the future.
00:26:41 Brandon
Like the jetsons.
00:26:48 Brandon
Could you imagine? I mean, that wouldn't sell, that wouldn't sell the comic books. Yeah.
00:26:53 Brandon
Yeah.
00:26:56 Brandon
I I also would choose Fantastic Four first steps just because after seeing the Thunderbolts, I'm kind of stoked on them. See you again. And this is the start of Phase 6.
00:27:06 Brandon
So I don't know.
00:27:07 Andrew
My gosh, we Donald Trump starting phase six as well.
00:27:15 Brandon
Yeah, that's good review for this week. It looks like we might get one more before Andrew gets attacked by the shadow man in his garage.
00:27:25 Andrew
Yeah.
00:27:28 Brandon
And so as we like to say here.
00:27:32 Andrew
Sorry, you know.
00:27:35 Brandon
In general.
00:27:35 Andrew
Podcasting.
00:27:36 Brandon
Yes, the now let's take a break for the naming Wendy's minute. Ohh we we don't have those anymore.
00:27:44 Andrew
Let's do it. Let's do a break.
00:27:48 Andrew
Let's do a barrel roll.
00:27:50 Brandon
Do a barrel roll. We do leave this in now. So anything you say, I get better.
00:27:58 Andrew
All right. And now back to the show.
00:28:03 Brandon
Here we are.
00:28:04 Brandon
Both speak for this time. We have three choices today.
00:28:09 Andrew
One of them is not BuzzFeed. That makes me uncomfortable.
00:28:11 Brandon
Yes, but it is the most fantastic.
00:28:13 Brandon
Four of the four.
00:28:14
OK.
00:28:16 Brandon
The first one is from 2023. It's a Marvel character which Marvel character are you inside and out by asking 6 random really stupid questions.
00:28:27 Andrew
OK.
00:28:28 Brandon
The second one is a propros.com preschool. Whatever, and you really want me to keep stay on the site. When I tried to click away from it. So I don't think we wanna do that one. But it's which Fantastic Four character. Are you based off of eight questions that also seem done and.
00:28:46 Brandon
The third one is.
00:28:47 Brandon
The sequins which Marvel Group do you belong to which I think includes like the X men's and the Fantastic Four Stick and all of that.
00:28:57 Andrew
Fantastic horse stick.
00:29:00 Andrew
The third one.
00:29:01 Brandon
I I felt like I was leading you there, but yeah, let's do that one. Let's see how that one goes. I think it's pretty quick.
00:29:02 Andrew
What's your viewing?
00:29:09 Andrew
Those pro profs.
00:29:12 Brandon
I I guess it's a quiz site.
00:29:14 Andrew
OK, I'm now regretting this.
00:29:17 Brandon
You clicked on it. Which one or the which model groups? You actually? OK, we can go sometimes.
00:29:18 Andrew
The the third one.
00:29:21 Andrew
It just said.
00:29:22 Andrew
Which Marvel group do you actually belong to? Are you a mutant comma agent, comma or three question marks?
00:29:30 Brandon
So the answer is either are you an ex man agent of shield or nothing?
00:29:36 Andrew
Yeah, that one seems stupid. Let's try the purpose, perhaps. Sorry.
00:29:40 Brandon
Full prompts, OK.
00:29:43 Brandon
Which Fantastic Four can do suits your personality.
00:29:46 Andrew
Hate this too, OK.
00:29:48 Brandon
Do you want to do the first one? See like it's. If you, if you if you take your cursor off the thing, it's like wait. Here's an interesting quiz for you, which Fantastic Four are you spelled WITCH.
00:29:50 Andrew
No, just don't hear it and you'll feel them.
00:30:05 Andrew
OK, so so this one's which Fantastic Four character suits your personality and 1st question is.
00:30:12 Andrew
What is your favorite color? Ohh sorry, what is your favorite color? The image is of the fantastic bulb which doesn't help us. Blue, orange clear which is not a color red or green.
00:30:12 Brandon
Well, let's go for it now. Yeah, you got it.
00:30:29 Brandon
If you like already trolling into use for this place now my favorite color of these 5 is blue. I don't know how it's helpful.
00:30:39 Andrew
Mine is green.
00:30:40 Brandon
OK.
00:30:42 Andrew
OK in advanced.
00:30:42 Brandon
If you if you could live anywhere, where would you live? Egypt. Of I, Rome. The rainforest or dune city. I wonder what those last options are going to get. Leave you with.
00:30:59 Brandon
5 For the Fantastic Four.
00:31:01 Andrew
I really go with Hawaii, even though I've only been there once and being on such like small islands in the middle of nowhere kind of creeped me out.
00:31:09 Brandon
So you would want to live there.
00:31:10 Andrew
Of those places, yes.
00:31:12 Brandon
OK.
00:31:13 Andrew
Like there was pleasant, but I just kept having this.
00:31:17 Andrew
Weird feeling about being on an island, I don't know.
00:31:21 Brandon
OK. I guess I would want to. It's really hot in Egypt. So Rome.
00:31:27 Andrew
Yeah, you can hang out with.
00:31:27 Andrew
A new Pope?
00:31:29 Brandon
Yeah, not too bad.
00:31:31 Andrew
What what word describes you? Best careless power. Hungry, quiet, smart or strong.
00:31:37 Brandon
This is really bad. I I think I would go with.
00:31:43 Brandon
No, I was gonna go smart, but quiet. It's probably correct.
00:31:48 Andrew
OK.
00:31:48 Brandon
What about you?
00:31:51 Andrew
I'm gonna go.
00:31:51 Andrew
With I mean it's so narcissistic. I'm gonna go with smart. Conceited.
00:31:55 Brandon
Yeah.
00:31:58 Brandon
Uh, are you a big part of your team? We are all in it together. Yes, but no one thanks me for anything. I am so important. I don't know.
00:31:58 Andrew
Sure.
00:32:11 Brandon
Where's the fifth option for this one?
00:32:13 Andrew
This sound this honestly sounds like a Donald Trump speech.
00:32:17 Andrew
In the order that you read those.
00:32:19 Brandon
We are only together. Yes, we know things. Everything is so important. I don't know.
00:32:26 Andrew
Yeah. And then this and then the YMCA dance or the the two whatevers, OK.
00:32:35 Andrew
I would say we're all in it together. I'm I I want to be a team player not, but I want to be.
00:32:40 Brandon
No.
00:32:41 Brandon
I was so gonna pick that one. So I guess I'll go with yes, but no one thanked me for anything or.
00:32:45 Andrew
Well, if you can.
00:32:48 Andrew
Because it you you've answered other things differently.
00:32:50 Brandon
I'll go with, I don't know.
00:32:51 Andrew
OK.
00:32:53 Andrew
Where would you never live?
00:32:55 Andrew
Africa, China, the Red Sea with an exclamation for no no apparent reason. I don't care. And the forest.
00:33:10 Brandon
This is the first question I had a loss for like the other the other ones are like very like obvious. Where would you like what character aligns with which? Which one?
00:33:21 Brandon
Is there a racist character like?
00:33:25 Brandon
I'd never live in China.
00:33:25 Andrew
I would never go to Africa.
00:33:29 Andrew
You got to choose one.
00:33:30 Brandon
I don't care.
00:33:32 Andrew
OK, I'm going with forest because the the ladies who are at my favorite murder stay said. Stay out of the forest, which I agree with.
00:33:39 Brandon
Alright.
00:33:40 Andrew
Also, I think there's the spiders in the.
00:33:41 Andrew
Forest.
00:33:42 Brandon
True, what the fan forced to quote. Do you like best? It's clobbering time. I don't have one.
00:33:54
Ohh no. Ohh.
00:33:56 Brandon
Unstable molecules are very fascinating.
00:34:01 Brandon
Dean's word is law and flame on.
00:34:06 Andrew
I have to point out molecules is spelled MOLICULES sounded out and fascinating and spelled incorrectly.
00:34:12 Brandon
Well.
00:34:15 Brandon
I was gonna say I was fixating on fascinating thing misspelled, but wow.
00:34:20 Andrew
Also, the first one I thought it said it's cobbler time.
00:34:23 Brandon
Just it actually don't say it's compliance.
00:34:26 Andrew
No, it doesn't read it again by side is I suck.
00:34:27 Brandon
OK, OK. It's clobber time once.
00:34:30 Andrew
Cobbler.
00:34:31 Brandon
Still, either way, it's misspelled. It's clobbering time. It's not clobber time, I think.
00:34:41 Andrew
I don't have one. This is dumb.
00:34:44 Andrew
I mean the cobbler one would.
00:34:45 Andrew
Have won, but it's not cobbler.
00:34:46 Brandon
Yeah, well, I guess.
00:34:53 Brandon
Unstable molecules are very fascinating.
00:34:59 Andrew
What element are you? Fire, wind, darkness, earth or water?
00:35:10
Hard.
00:35:13 Andrew
When our powers combine.
00:35:15 Brandon
I am Captain planet.
00:35:18 Andrew
Bunch of liberal propaganda.
00:35:21 Brandon
I mean, as an earth sign water.
00:35:27 Brandon
As a triple torus.
00:35:30 Andrew
I'm going to go wind.
00:35:32 Brandon
Rock what do you think about school? I love it. It's OK. Important not important. I am already capital B. Brilliant.
00:35:45 Andrew
I'm gonna go with it's OK.
00:35:49 Brandon
I would say it's important.
00:35:51 Andrew
And now I'm back at the beginning.
00:35:53 Brandon
Yeah.
00:35:55 Andrew
And it didn't.
00:35:56 Brandon
To result with anything. That's awesome.
00:36:03 Brandon
Well.
00:36:03 Andrew
Patrolling us.
00:36:05 Brandon
That's that's gone well.
00:36:07 Andrew
Oh wait, you have to answer the color question again.
00:36:09 Brandon
Ohh.
00:36:09
Oh.
00:36:11 Brandon
Because it's eight of eight. What is your? I answered blue. What if we changed our? Oh, interesting.
00:36:11 Brandon
Which?
00:36:12 Andrew
I answered green again.
00:36:17 Andrew
It is OK. I wanted you to know the first thing it says is great. You have completed this quiz period. Not great. Comma. You have completed this quiz. Exclamation. No. Great. You have completed this quiz period.
00:36:30 Brandon
Pro profs. Man pro profs.
00:36:33 Andrew
So anyway, without further ado, I got.
00:36:38 Andrew
Mr. fantastic. He's a very outgoing and nice guy when not stuck up in performing experiments, which is usually the case, he very easily makes new friends and is always regarded as a nice and proper guy and proper by the press. Even Jay Jonah Jameson likes him. Him weed is basically rich and famous.
00:36:58 Andrew
Although financial problems have been a recurring subplot.
00:37:00 Brandon
Wow.
00:37:02 Andrew
Due to the enormous cost of operating the Final Fantasy, Fantastic Four greed has a great respect for life and would never consider killing. He will do absolutely anything to stabilize even great universal threats such as Galactus himself. This convictions allows him, when he puts his mind to it.
00:37:12 Brandon
What's this?
00:37:22 Andrew
To address the best in all individuals and move them to take positive, responsible action, no, period.
00:37:30 Brandon
What?
00:37:33 Brandon
OK.
00:37:37 Brandon
I.
00:37:39 Brandon
I got Jessica Alba or the invisible woman.
00:37:44 Brandon
There's two sentences.
00:37:47 Brandon
Sea Storm is the is a founding member of the Fantastic Four and later the Future Foundation. She is able to create invisible force fields of any shape she conceives and able to turn herself and anything she's in contact with invisible.
00:38:02 Andrew
So so first of all this this was created by Melinda Dee, A community contributor at Pro Props and reviewed by, you guessed it, the editorial team who didn't edit ****** anything.
00:38:19 Brandon
And clearly didn't end up getting Sue Storm.
00:38:24 Andrew
Also, why do I have to answer the?
00:38:25 Andrew
The color questions right?
00:38:28 Andrew
I'm glad we did this because it was so bad.
00:38:30 Brandon
Uh, yeah, it's uh.
00:38:32 Andrew
Do better do better.
00:38:34 Brandon
But not as bad as that 1994 Fantastic Four movie. I mean, I really wanna take your take your cursor away from the website for a second.
00:38:37 Andrew
No, true.
00:38:44 Brandon
To something which is anywhere off the page.
00:38:44 Andrew
Where? Where do I put it?
00:38:48 Brandon
Does yours not? Does yours not have anything pop up? OK, mine has which OK.
00:38:52 Andrew
Ohh it did it.
00:38:53 Andrew
It says wait, here's an interesting quiz for you, which Fantastic Four are you start.
00:39:02 Brandon
Ohh champions yeah.
00:39:04 Andrew
Wow, that was tremendous. I it was a good choice, though. You had some good comedy out of that. Ohh, there's like oh man, the quizzes have been funny lately. Like the one that really existential one about whether you'd save the Malaysian orphanage from arson or whatever.
00:39:07 Brandon
Yeah, well, well done.
00:39:16 Brandon
Hmm. And especially like comedy comes in threes and went back a third time for.
00:39:22 Brandon
Ooh, for Sona quiz. Know your true animal spirit.
00:39:26 Andrew
That seems like.
00:39:29 Andrew
Cultural appropriation.
00:39:32 Andrew
Because it is, I've said that multiple times recently.
00:39:33 Brandon
Yeah.
00:39:36 Brandon
