SPEAKER_02:He's been eating his honey nut Cheerios. So what's new with that? I don't think it has the same effect as honey nut Cheerios, though. So that's why I'm 280. Hey, that's what we got instead of.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, I got some like fruit rings upstairs.
SPEAKER_02:No, I'm good. Throw those away. Fake ass things.
SPEAKER_08:Fruit rings. Fucking taste like shit. Anyway. Um yeah, I don't know how to follow that. Uh everything's good over here. Um kind of going through the huh? Period. Period, yeah. Period. Everything's good over here. Period. That's it. That's the news. That's it. Moving on. I mean, I don't I don't think I have anything going on right now. Well, I mean, I'm not drinking. Listen, no news is good news. I've gained weight. Oh. Um. Hell yeah, brother.
SPEAKER_00:Um you guys got like 12 inches of snow recently. You're just relax.
SPEAKER_02:Enjoy yourself. Which is why he's gained weight because he's hyper.
SPEAKER_00:No, it's okay.
SPEAKER_02:Well, yeti.
SPEAKER_00:I'm a yeti. He has to. Yeah. Don't beat yourself up. Yeah, let us do it.
SPEAKER_08:Okay. Okay.
SPEAKER_02:It's a joke. Anyway, Yeti. Um, uh, listen, again, no news is good news.
SPEAKER_08:So I'm trying to think if anything's happened in the past two weeks.
SPEAKER_02:It's okay if nothing's happened. That that's that's that's kind of a good thing that nothing has really happened in the last two weeks.
SPEAKER_03:Your wife joined a cult yesterday.
SPEAKER_02:Oh, there is that.
SPEAKER_00:Wait, you guys got a Trader Joe's?
SPEAKER_08:Yeah. No. So what's that? Shin Yan, Xin Yang? Oh shit. Yeah. Now I understand. Grizzlies, oh, that claims. Oh, yeah, I heard about that. You okay? So you know about that then. I do.
SPEAKER_00:Do I know about that?
SPEAKER_08:So there's a show. I don't know. Um, shit. He's hurting his brain right now. Yeah, I am. I don't know all the details about it.
SPEAKER_03:I want to help you so bad, but I don't know what you're trying to say.
SPEAKER_08:You can explain it. You know more about it than I do. Give me give me a line line. Come on now. Yeah, you take you take take the reins on this combo.
SPEAKER_03:Okay, perfect. So I just recently learned that Shenyun, which is like a Chinese traditional arts performance company, allegedly.
SPEAKER_01:Allegedly.
SPEAKER_03:Is a cult. And so I went last year with my mother, and we just loved the pretty colors, basically, because that's all it takes. And so we were like, let's go again this year, but let's add a plus one, which like is very cult style anyway. Like you always have to add a literally recruitment of like double amount of being in a cult.
SPEAKER_00:They call it outreach.
SPEAKER_03:Correct. Correct. I was just doing my part as part of this. And so I we went because like when I learned the money was already spent, like the tickets were already bought when I learned this. So I'm like, okay, my money's already invested in the thing. And then it was so culty through the entire thing, if I'm being honest with you. I was like, okay, I get it now. Like I honestly get it.
SPEAKER_00:Question. Had you not learned about said cult, would you have seen said cult vibes?
SPEAKER_03:It's obviously not because I didn't last yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Well, because you pointed it out.
SPEAKER_03:I would have just been like just pretty colors.
SPEAKER_02:Well, because you pointed it out. Yeah, she wouldn't, she wouldn't have thought it was weird when they brought the Kool-Aid out and said, Okay, everybody fill your cups.
SPEAKER_03:That's all I would have thought.
SPEAKER_02:Said, oh my god, they're so thoughtful bringing Kool-Aid for everybody.
SPEAKER_00:I didn't even know we had Kool-Aid.
SPEAKER_01:I didn't even know Kool-Aid was still a thing.
SPEAKER_03:That's crazy.
SPEAKER_06:I promise I won't do anything for it.
SPEAKER_03:Over there. Thank you. I love you. Aw. Aww. You're welcome.
SPEAKER_01:Chris is like, uh wait, hold on.
SPEAKER_04:Is it's all tuckered out.
SPEAKER_00:Hell yeah. I feel like that Lynn's okay, so like the cult thing, I think, is pretty accurate. However, I think that once you are privy to information, it changes the perspective of what you're viewing.
SPEAKER_03:It's literally a bias, yes. That's like the whole for biases.
SPEAKER_00:So now I kind of understand a certain group of people that um think a certain way.
SPEAKER_08:Without saying, get it ready, get it ready. Every cult.
SPEAKER_00:No, I'm not saying anything else.
SPEAKER_08:Get it ready. But it's just case.
SPEAKER_01:That's a cult. That's called a security blanket.
SPEAKER_03:I have no idea. I just didn't even like I just didn't see it through that lens. And I saw it through the lens. I was like, I could get this now.
SPEAKER_02:Could that possibly fall under the same blanket? Are you behind it and like support it?
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yeah. More important question here. Are you getting season tickets now?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, of course she is. That's exactly what that comes from. Who else wants to challenge? Listen, I got listen, I got that thing to do. Uh, I got dirt to wash, a goldfish to walk, and the guy in the mirror, he keeps mocking me. So I'm gonna give him a piece of my mind that day. Um, so unfortunately, I can't go.
SPEAKER_03:Day's busy. Day's bad. I don't know. Jam pack. I do really like the performance, but ethically it feels really wrong to enjoy it.
SPEAKER_02:So could it fall under like the same same idea of the signs were there? You know what I mean? Like, yes, it's one thing to point out the culty stuff, and now you're like, ooh, wait a minute, now you're connecting dots, right? But is it is it could it be that these were the signs, just nobody pointed them out to you, and now you're like, oh fuck. That's a cult.
SPEAKER_03:No, they were for yeah, they were for sure like just signs, like they literally have a flag that says Falloon Dapha is good. Literal sign of a flag in the performance, like a literal sign, like literally I saw the sign that saw the sign. Exactly.
SPEAKER_01:Oh yeah, dude.
SPEAKER_03:And then when you look up the beliefs of Falloon Data, you're like see?
SPEAKER_02:Thanks.
SPEAKER_03:It's pretty good stuff that it's good.
unknown:Right.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, so so with that being said, we are no longer going to be uh promoting the cult here. But if you are interested, go ahead and uh you know buy some tickets. Uh anyway, I'm glad everybody's doing well.
SPEAKER_03:I kind of always wanted it, like I was uh at risk for like going into a cult.
SPEAKER_00:Oh, I'm just like just a little just a little that had um the chick from the office, uh like Kimmy Schmidt or some shit. Oh Smallville.
SPEAKER_03:No, unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.
SPEAKER_00:Smallville?
SPEAKER_08:Yeah, okay. No, so Smallville, the no no no, the act one of the actresses from the Smallville was part of a cult, and she got arrested and served a bunch of people. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because she was she was like recruiting.
SPEAKER_06:Oh, you know what?
SPEAKER_02:I love branding people. I love that you brought that up because again, I'm glad everybody's doing well and nothing crazy is going on. It was super crazy, should I say? Um, but rolling right into entertainment news, I'm so glad you brought that up because we are discussing the elephant in the room that everybody's been talking about, these fucking Epstein files. Holy fucking shit. Has anybody, and I mean any one of you, has anybody looked into that? No.
SPEAKER_00:I actually have not put eyes on a lot of the files, but I've seen a few pages.
SPEAKER_08:Yes.
SPEAKER_00:I haven't seen any images, and any images I have seen have been redacted. Okay.
SPEAKER_08:Redacted, redacted, redacted. Yeah, I'm in I'm in the same boat as as Grizz. I the stuff that I've come across has like popped up on my news feed or like zoom scrolling, and I've seen that stuff and read that stuff. But overall, I've not because I don't want to, I don't want to. I get it. I don't know. I get it. I get it.
SPEAKER_00:I don't need I honestly I don't need to see those files to believe they're doing some fuck shit, bro.
SPEAKER_02:Like I know we know, but to see some of the names that pop up.
SPEAKER_03:We know that some of the conversations are awful.
SPEAKER_04:Bro, I mean, I don't I don't care whose name is on that. I don't care whose name is on that. Fuck them. Lock them up. Ay yo.
SPEAKER_03:A morality and money line that like where morality falls off.
SPEAKER_07:Right. Yep.
SPEAKER_03:And like all of these people in this file went straight past that morality line and was like, money, money, money, money, money. Right.
SPEAKER_08:And like disgusting.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_08:It is very disgusting.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. So so Miss Meeseeks, I I want to ask this question real quick. Have you seen any of the files? Like, have you actually like gone through and looked at anything?
SPEAKER_03:Outside of emails. So I've seen some like emails that have been written. And where? And there. Yeah, that's okay. No, I didn't.
SPEAKER_00:Okay. I uh I also have seen some of those emails. So yeah, I I'm with you on that. The emails.
SPEAKER_03:Okay, so so it's and so a lot of the files are communication. Like that's basically what the files are. Is it's largely just like invest or emails, and then there's some like interviews with people. Hi, baby.
SPEAKER_02:Now, now if you now if you get the opportunity to actually go through it, because it's I mean, it's out there, it's on their government website, all that kind of stuff. There is so I got to I got to, I want to say I didn't get through everything.
SPEAKER_00:Um, there's like wait, you mean to tell me you didn't read three million files? No, I'm really disappointed in the world. What are you doing with your off-call? Shocker, Shocker, I didn't read all of those.
SPEAKER_08:So I'm I'm making progress.
SPEAKER_02:So I got to, I got to, and and this is me skipping through a lot of it because I actually went to page two. No, I got to I got to like I got to like 200, and I was like, okay, I haven't really seen anything crazy because obviously it's a lot of pictures, right? It's a lot, a lot of shit cut in in these files, and most of it is just like pictures in in like stairwells and this, that, and the other thing. I mean, when they said go ins go in there and take pictures of everything, they took pictures of everything. I think they took a step, took a picture, took a step, took a picture, took a step, took a picture. And I'm like, that's a lot. Yeah, like it's it's a lot. But once I got to about 500, it's kind of when the juicy stuff started popping up. And I was like, uh oh, there was like some shit that was. Was like written down, like handwritten notes to Jeffrey Epstein himself talking about these girls knew what they were getting into, you didn't hold a gun to their head, blah blah blah blah blah, uh they're just trying, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So I'm like, huh?
SPEAKER_00:Wait, hold on. Can can we can we can I just highlight that if one more like journalist or CNN or Fox News or MSNBC motherfucker calls these girls women? I swear to God, I'm gonna climb for that motherfucking TV because they are 13-year-old girls.
SPEAKER_07:Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, have grown up into women.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Right. But survived.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. It's it's it's it's irritating, honestly. Um, I don't I has has anybody seen any of the videos that they've released of of Epstein or anything like that? Because there was one that I had seen, obviously, in like my my feed and all that kind of stuff on to on the TikToks. Um, there was one where he was showing something, it was like a bump on his lip or some shit like that. No, they were actually speculating that because I think it was mentioned in an email, I forget what the fuck it was called, but it was some kind of uh symptom of something you get from eating people's brains and spinal cords.
SPEAKER_00:So I heard about the cannibalism shit. And like I'm not saying that rich fucks wouldn't do that because like they probably would. But there's there's there's three million fucking files. How much of it do you guys think this is my conspiracy theory aluminum foil hat coming out? Let's go. How much how much of this shit do you think that they're like, let's just throw the wildest fucking shit at it so people won't believe the truth that is in it?
SPEAKER_02:I d I don't know. I don't know.
SPEAKER_03:The problem is I do believe that. I don't believe they have a moral compass at all. I believe that they believe they are in full control, full power. Oh, 100%. I agree. They have the control about it. Because who's gonna call them out because they've created this seemingly indestructible system that's been working for years? Yep.
SPEAKER_07:Yep, yep, yep.
SPEAKER_03:And that's who's who is who they're gonna tell the boogeyman? Like who's gonna be able to do that? We are literally, and I'm just so happy of people applying pressure because like we are the boogeyman, we will eat you back. Right. I swear to god, eat the rich.
SPEAKER_00:Right, right. So so I don't I don't want that poison in my body.
SPEAKER_02:No shit. Because man, if it's it's transferable, no thanks. I'm fine. Um but I I I don't know, but uh a part of it kind of shocked me because they uh apparently uh so all of this I'm just hearing, I don't know if it's been confirmed or anything like that, but they they say that Epstein had a lot to do with um uh uh microtransactions in gaming. And actually came up with COD points. Because CP. So people are kind of like connecting. Listen, log in, a lot of theories, a lot of shit swirling around, but they're saying that that's a crazy connection. It it is, but they they did say that uh that uh I think there was an email that he they sent because I believe the creators of Call of Duty and the creators of uh GTA were all in the files, and I think there was an email between Epstein and the creators of Call of Duty. Yeah, gosp. Where he actually mentions um making the microtransactions in Call of Duty because he was a big he was a big gamer, I guess, played played Xbox a lot. Uh to gear.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, where else would he recruit his kids?
SPEAKER_02:No shit.
SPEAKER_00:But but he was I saw I saw that Roblox case. I know what's going on.
SPEAKER_02:Bruh. That's a whole nother that's a whole nother story. But in the email, apparently he was saying if you gear that towards kids, it'll sell. And look what happened.
SPEAKER_00:So I'm like, I did you see, did you see that thing recently about um apparently he he had like a Fortnite account and it um was active and bought V-Bucks recently? I didn't know that.
SPEAKER_03:He's not dead. He's not dead. You don't think so?
SPEAKER_00:Oh yeah, I never believed he was dead.
SPEAKER_03:So that's my little thing. But also, did we hear that the founders of Life Touch uh are also in the files, the ones who take little kids' pictures? Oh yes, yes, yes, yes, I did hear about that. Like whole thing, uh yeah, it is that, yeah. I think they are the same company.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I did I did hear about that, and and and they were saying like um um because Life Touch does a lot of like school photos and stuff too, don't they?
SPEAKER_03:They do all of the school photos existed. Yeah, so so a lot of years and years of it.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, so a lot of people were thinking that he had something like he was he was getting all these pictures, and maybe that's how he was picking and choosing like a lot of yeah, that's a pipeline.
SPEAKER_00:I why you think they are investing in AI, they need an algorithm to pick their next victim.
SPEAKER_03:It's it's man, I really was ugly as a kid.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, listen, I'm glad I ate a lot of cake. Nobody wanted me. Listen, that saved your life. Oh man. Crazy words. Yeah, but but this whole thing. Yeah, this whole this whole Epstein Files thing has like really just it's become a huge thing. And and people are going through these files, and there's a lot to go through. There's a lot of information to sift through. So if you get the opportunity, I mean you can literally just look it up on on a government website somewhere. I literally just go.
SPEAKER_03:Somebody told us we should just move on. Just get through the files and just move on.
SPEAKER_02:What do we need? Wait, wait. Or the joke, because we're clearly joking. Obviously. It's clear, it's clearly just a joke, guys. Clearly.
SPEAKER_00:So anyway. You know who we need. We need my boy Curtis 50 Cent Jackson. Oh my god.
SPEAKER_08:I haven't so okay. Have y'all watched the trailer the uh the commercial?
SPEAKER_01:We're not gonna talk about it. What yet, why don't you bring it up?
SPEAKER_00:What's wrong with you?
SPEAKER_03:You know my ADHD will follow you down any hole. Jesus Christ. We didn't speedrun to the topic, by the way. No, but we have a heavy detour.
SPEAKER_00:We had a heavy detour.
SPEAKER_02:We did we did. So anyway, if you have if you have the out if you have the time, I guess, um, look it up. I mean, I just googled Epstein Files, and literally, like, the first thing that popped up was the government website that it'll take you to, and it'll ask you, are you over 18? Just hit yes, and all of the files are at your fingertips.
SPEAKER_08:You just download them on your phone though.
SPEAKER_02:Uh well for for me, I didn't have to literally you just you just click and you just click and it'll open open up the picture for you. You don't have to download it at all.
SPEAKER_08:It didn't, it didn't uh it didn't open for me.
SPEAKER_02:Really? Hmm.
SPEAKER_08:I was I was sitting here messing with it, and then I was like, I wonder why I wonder why he's doing that. Maybe he's got the crazier files. And then I went to I went to I went to TikTok and some guy or somebody showed like if you click the ones that if you search no image and it comes back as a PDF file or something like that, and you you you copy it and then paste it in the in the ironic in the in the in the uh the irony runs deep search bar of Google and change PDF to MP4, they're actually videos and it will and it shows the video of what it's supposed to be. Yeah, there's and he they did that, and one of them is very disturbing.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's that's that's actually yeah. So just if you have the opportunity, if you want to, I mean if you want to save yourself, don't do it. Um I'm good. So anyway, uh Yeti, I think you have something for us.
SPEAKER_08:Um yeah, so the other day I was I was in the bathroom, right?
SPEAKER_02:You were in the bathroom.
SPEAKER_08:Yep, yep, yep. And when I've got the toilet paper, I I folded it. And then I got to thinking, do you fold or do you scrunch the toilet paper when you when you when you're done?
SPEAKER_00:What do you mean when you're done?
SPEAKER_08:Yeah, like like when you go to do the clean. When you go to clean your asshole. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Do you scrunch the toilet paper or do you fold it? Yeti, we don't have time for your bullshit, okay? We have to we have to get to red we have to get to Reddit Roulette right now because we have to speedrun to the topic, right? We're supposed to speed run. We're not sprinting right now, we're it's a light jog. Grizz knows all about it. It's a warm-up.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, it's a warm-up jog.
SPEAKER_08:I was just curious. I just wanted to know.
SPEAKER_00:Uh I wrap that shit around my hand like it's a fucking glove.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, that's always a good one. I scrunch it just so we're clear. I I don't I'm not just gonna. You might get poop on your fingers? No, I'm a heathen.
SPEAKER_01:I want to buy a Anyway, Yeti, Red Roulette, right now! Okay, all right.
SPEAKER_02:Number one through five.
SPEAKER_01:Uh four. Four. Okay, you ready?
SPEAKER_08:Four is crazy.
SPEAKER_02:Go get some snacks while he does this.
SPEAKER_08:One.
SPEAKER_02:We're waiting.
SPEAKER_00:Two.
SPEAKER_02:Three. Hey, you know, you know what we haven't done? Set our safe word. Deeper.
SPEAKER_08:Okay.
SPEAKER_00:Well, I feel like it was not appropriate at the last segment to No, that was our safe word.
SPEAKER_02:We had to, we had to get out.
SPEAKER_08:All right, so here we go. This is the title. Am I the asshole for telling my house guest about my son? Oh, this is long. I need to be able to do it. Okay, I'm I'm 38 male, live with my son, 20 male. His mom's not in the picture, and I have no other children. Last year, my son came out as gay. While I was not something I'm familiar with, I of course accepted him because he's my son and I love him, and surprisingly, it was surprising because my son typically presents as very masculine and very athletic and into sports growing up and still is. I apologize if this that's not PC to say. I'm still learning, but it's important to this story. When my son came out, he asked me to open up and he opened and we wanted to be with, and said it's not a secret and anyone can know. I've casually mentioned to other people that my son is gay and he's never had an issue with it. About a month ago, my friend, 40 male, asked me if his son, 22 male, could live with us for a while. He started grad school in my house, it's close to the school. I'm very close to my friend. And his son is like a nephew to me, but our sons have only met a few times. My son moved to the other side of the country when he was when his son was five. I was worried it would be weird for my son's friend, but he got very comfortable right away, almost too comfortable. I found out that he was very comfortable being at home wearing nothing but skivys, which I would never do in someone else's house, but maybe this g maybe this generation's different. I've always been on the sport on sports teams and in this kind of culture, so it didn't bother me, but it occurred to me that he might not know my son is gay and might not be doing this if he did know. I tried to bring it up in a way that I thought was subtle. I mentioned a date with my son when he went one on and kept saying he to my friend's son, and I guess he got the hint. He started being dressed more, especially when my son's home. One day he mentioned my son being gay, and my son asked him how he knew, and he said that he that I told him. My son privately came, my son privately came to him and asked if I told our house guest about him being gay, so he so he was wears clothes. I said he deserved to know so he could decide if he felt comfortable doing that, and it seems like he isn't. My son got mad and said we were being homophobic and asked if I asked if anything else had changed between them besides wearing more than underwear. My son and him have been bonding, and my son admitted no. I told him that if he's upset about our house guests wearing clothes, I clearly did the right thing by telling him my son's calling me an asshole, but I didn't think I did anything wrong. So is he is the dad the asshole? For telling people about so I I'm so what I'm assuming is his his son, his friend's son came to his house to live with him after grad school or during grad school.
SPEAKER_07:Right.
SPEAKER_08:Um the dad was like, hey, just to let you know, my son's gay. But he did it, he did it sub subtle, not Right, right, right, right, right.
SPEAKER_02:He didn't just he didn't just come out and say, Hey guys, check this out.
SPEAKER_08:Right, right, right. So then the guy so then that the the the the friend's son then started wearing clothes more more clothes than just the underwear. Okay, apparently the son's the the friend's okay hold on what are we holding for? That's better.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, I had to mute. Oh, okay. I'm sorry. Okay, got it, got it, got it. I'm all caught up. Okay, so is so is the father an asshole for for just telling people that his son is gay?
SPEAKER_08:No, no, no, not people, just yeah, I think it's just more or less about the guest. About the friend's about the friend's son. Because he was walking around in his underwear and said, Hey, my son's gay, just to let you know. The that son's friend then changed his attire, said, Okay, I'm gonna start wearing more clothes and just my underwear. Um the the son's the the friend's son then told his son that his dad told him that he was gay, and that's why he's been wearing more clothes, basically.
SPEAKER_02:I gotcha.
SPEAKER_08:And the son got upset that he told him.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, so so it's kinda it's kind of tricky because because it's like that does kind of give like the dad thinks just because his son is gay that he's gonna have the hots for everybody, right? And that's necessarily not necessarily the truth, right? Like not every not every gay person is gonna want everybody else. So go ahead, Grizz.
SPEAKER_00:Um I don't think okay, I agree with what you just said. I don't think that just because the son is gay, he's gonna be attracted to just any fucking person just because they're in their underwear. Right. However, if you're a guest house or a house to fuck words, yeah. If you're a guest to someone's house, there we go. Good job, Chris. You uh should not be walking around in underwear. That's true. I mean, I don't know. Yeah, that's true. Okay, you're you're a grown-ass man. Put some clothes on. Right. Like when did that I don't know. You know what I mean? Like, like, I don't know, like, okay, but there I will say this. I acknowledge that in other cultures uh the outside of the US, not sure where this friend is from. Uh if you did say I wasn't paying attention, I was distracted a little bit. Um but uh uh I do know that in other cultures uh like nudity and comfortable like comfortability with nudity isn't uh sexualized as much as it is here in the States. So um there's that aspect as well. I I feel like uh this is probably uh maybe uh slightly rooted in like homophobia uh from the dad. Uh but I don't know if it's intentional and things could probably be solved by communicating. And we're pretty communicative species, so like people actually need to talk more, dude.
SPEAKER_02:Oh, for sure. For sure. But I do I do agree with with the idea that you know if you are a guest in that house, why are you walking around in your skives?
SPEAKER_01:Like that yeah, right, right.
SPEAKER_02:Like I guess it depends on the time of day. Like, are you just waking up? Like, do you sleep that way? Whatever. Still, regardless, if I'm ever I don't sleep in my skivvies anyway, like I'm you know, pretty dressed when I go to bed.
SPEAKER_00:Uh I think most of the time I run too warm. I sleep in like either a t-shirt and boxers or just boxers, but like if I'm staying at someone's house, I don't do that. Yeah, like I'll sleep in like shorts and a t-shirt, yeah. Right close enough. Um I don't know, but I get it. I mean, like some people are just comfortable and they want to be comfortable, but like you there's rules sometimes, right?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, that like there are lines that you probably shouldn't cross. Miss Meeseeks, do you have anything that you that you possibly could add?
SPEAKER_03:There's so many layers to this. There are it's so many layers because like why are you walking around in your boxers? And like also for me, I grow I grew up with a naked mom. Like that's who I am, right? So like bodies don't bother me, right? So if that's who you are, that's fine, but then when I follow the thought through, suddenly what changes is you're comfortable in this environment, but then you find out that there's a gay man in your environment, and that then makes you uncomfortable. Did he say anything to you when as he's been walking around half clothed? Because like the the the opportunity for advancement was there because he's been gay the whole time. And then suddenly, because you have this information, you're now like, oh my gosh, I have to cover up. But so then I'm like, it's root it it feels rooted in homophobia, but maybe not intentionally rooted in homophobia. But at the same time, like everybody just needs to respect a communal faith, and there probably should have been some ground rules maybe established before you you come in as a house guest, or if you have a standard in your home and then you see somebody outside of that, say, hey, like we don't walk around half naked.
SPEAKER_07:Right.
SPEAKER_08:So I'm gonna kind of go off that I'm gonna kind of go off that a little bit, and it it could also be looked at or viewed as like that conversation is almost as like he was it was like a warning to the son's friend. Like, hey, you're wearing this and my son's gay.
SPEAKER_00:Like but it should that see now that that feels homophobic, but right, right, but it's problematic, but that is problematic.
SPEAKER_08:That's that is an angle that like that conversation can be viewed at is is hey, you dressing like this is gonna make you unsafe in my home because my son's gay, and you walk around and left me and you're gonna get you like okay.
SPEAKER_03:I'm so sorry. Yeah, that's what it's giving now. Right. I mean, that's the vibe.
SPEAKER_02:I'm gonna just waiting in the corner, waiting for you to go to sleep. No, that's that's absolutely fucking wild, and that's why I said like for for for the father to say that, it gives like you know, oh you're you know, my son is attracted to every person that again, right? Gay people are not just attracted to everybody.
SPEAKER_03:Okay. I gotta go back to the beginning of his of his question. He said he was still getting used to it. So there it's internalized homophobia is what it is. He mentioned that at the beginning. And he was still getting used to his son being gay. Yeah, so that means some internalized it's some internalized homophobia is what it's giving.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, which I'm gonna say a crazy thought. That is okay as long as you're open and accepting and learning change.
SPEAKER_01:Right? Yeah, right.
SPEAKER_00:Like there's allowed to beef shortcomings and roadblocks and in speed bumps, like that's normal.
SPEAKER_03:But because included and nuance, yeah. So you that's a nuanced conversation.
SPEAKER_08:You may have said you may have said this. I don't know. I I I was reading stuff, but like what if he would have addressed the conversation instead of saying, hey, my son's gay, just being like, Hey, can you just put on some more clothes? We don't walk around on our underwear.
SPEAKER_00:That would have been the non-homophobic way, isn't it? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, because that that's that's somebody asking you them not, you know, to kind of like respect the house. Because right. I I mean, personally, I don't want to see you walk around in your skvies. Really, personally, I don't want to see that either. So please stop walking around like that. It's it's my house.
SPEAKER_01:And he said he said skivvies. I mean, I I don't know, but but also why are we using the word skives?
SPEAKER_00:Because they're probably this man. Listen, we like skivvies.
SPEAKER_02:We like skivvies. But I want to piggyback on what uh uh Miss Meese brought up um um that he mentioned he's still getting used to it. So it is possible that he just recently came out to his to his dad. And as Grizz was you know pointing out, there is there is a learning curve. There is a learning curve to that, especially when you are not, you know, it's not something that you you were around a lot, right? Or or at all in in in this regard, I'm gonna assume. So there is gonna be a learning curve of getting used to certain things, and and part of that will be getting rid of the idea that you know every gay man wants every person, you know, or a gay person wants, you know, uh oh oh you're he's gay, he likes men. Oh well, I need to cover up. Why? It doesn't mean that he that he didn't say, Hey, I'm gay and I'm attracted to you, unless that was like like me Miss Mesie's brought up. Was that something that was said in passing between the son and the guest? Maybe I don't know, that wasn't brought up. But at the same time, the father does he need a little bit of grace, like a little bit of room for grace if it's something that is that is brand new to him, but at the same time, like there are so many people that their their their children have come out to them and they're like, Oh, I knew the whole time, it's not a big deal. You know what I mean? Like, like they that they seen it, they they're like, I okay, and and the story, period. So I don't know. Uh what can I say he's an asshole?
SPEAKER_03:Not intentionally.
SPEAKER_02:Not intentionally, yeah. Not intentionally. I feel like they're still with an asterisk.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. If we find out in next week's episode if he's an asshole or not, find out next time on Dragon Ball Z.
SPEAKER_08:I'm just kidding. I will say that as of right now, everyone's saying he's an asshole.
SPEAKER_02:Uh yeah, for I mean would that be like the douch? Yeah, yeah, parallel. It would be like the taint. The taint. Yeah, the taint. He's a taint. Or we can call him the butt cheeks. So, yeah, just he could have worded that a lot better. Like he could have approached that whole conversation so differently and and he said if he's learning, or like like like uh Miss Miss Cheeks said.
SPEAKER_08:I said Miss Miss Miss Cheeks.
SPEAKER_03:He said it twice. He said it twice, though. Yeah, you did. What is it?
SPEAKER_06:Miss Me Cheeks with his whole chest, too. Three times.
SPEAKER_01:Yeti, yeti, you got it, man. Keep swinging that bat. So anyway, no way he said that.
SPEAKER_08:He's swinging his bat. Three times. What's is it is it missed? It's meat seeks.
SPEAKER_03:There you go. It's like hide and seek.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, it's miss meat seeks. Wait, wait, wait, wait. It's a cheeks. That's what we were talking about.
SPEAKER_08:As booty cheeks.
SPEAKER_01:He said Miss Meat Cheeks.
SPEAKER_00:That's it. That's your new name.
SPEAKER_08:My apologies. I'm gonna ask the world if I'm an asshole.
SPEAKER_00:Ghost to Reddit. Ghost to Reddit. Am I the asshole for mispronouncing our co-host name?
SPEAKER_01:Miss Michi for three times. Oh my god, that's actually hilarious.
SPEAKER_02:Oh my god. Yeah, he's and he said it confidently too.
SPEAKER_03:I know over and over and over again.
SPEAKER_00:You were like Jay even corrected him, and he's like, Yeah, that's my fucking thing, dude. I don't understand. Like, what are you talking about, bro?
SPEAKER_02:I said, Yeah, miss me seeks. He said, Yeah, that's what it's in.
SPEAKER_00:No, it's not like why you like it, like I said it wrong.
SPEAKER_01:Oh shit.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, anyway, anyway, anyway, we have stuff to talk about, but before we do, did y'all have y'all ever just like been talking about like a topic and then somebody just totally gets your name wrong and you try to correct them? They're like, that's what the fuck I said. Obviously, their minds not in the right place, right? So I think somebody could use a shot of magic mind, which which is this wonderful mental performance shot that uh has these wonderful little nootropics in it that can get rid of brain frog and brain frog. See, now I'm fucked up. Thanks, bro. Double chop. I I might need two shots, but it helps get rid of brain fog, uh, helps you think clearly, and definitely uh helps with recall as well. Um, something that I think Yeti might need. But it also has L-theanine in it, which uh can help with that caffeine absorption. So if you want to add it to like your daily routine in the morning, you drink your coffee, you can add it to your coffee, and that'll help that caffeine absorption last all day, but without the crash, because it doesn't have all the sugars. So, right now, what I'm gonna do is take a little sip.
SPEAKER_00:Bottoms up, baby. There it is.
SPEAKER_02:Powered up. Oh my god. Now focus is up to 99. If you would like to try Magic Mind for yourself and see how it works, because it does work, I promise you.

SPEAKER_08:We are talking about He-Man, Masters of the Masters of the Universe of the Universe.
SPEAKER_02:You are the master of your own universe, unless your name is Dolph Lundron.
SPEAKER_01:Okay, so there's so there's so many notes.
SPEAKER_00:No, listen, I I won't have one really long wait. I think when I was on the computer, it was two pages, but on my com on my phone, it's just one really long swipe.
SPEAKER_02:And that's all you need, bro. That is all you need. That's all I need, baby.
SPEAKER_00:That's all you need.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, so who wants to start us off with this wonderful journey of Masters of the Universe? Grizz had his hand up first, so Grizz, take it away. Hell yeah.
SPEAKER_00:We can bounce back and forth. I don't want to like I I kind of want to like No, I get it. Just I'm a starting, I have a starting point. Just get a few points out and we'll we'll carry on from there. So so there's a few things that I just wanted to highlight before we move forward. Do we know what the budget for this film was?
SPEAKER_02:I think it was twenty dollars.$100.
SPEAKER_00:$100?
SPEAKER_08:I was gonna say cocaine. Fucking some cocaine in the period form, fall off the boat. They found it.
SPEAKER_00:Value might actually be close.
SPEAKER_08:Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Okay, all right. Give me give me a real guess. What do you think a movie in the 80s would have cost to make?
SPEAKER_08:Yeah, I'd probably say like I'd probably say like, yeah, 200,000.$200,000.
SPEAKER_03:He's gonna be like it cost three million dollars to make it.
SPEAKER_00:Probably$1.5 million.$1.5 million. You know what? I'll I'll get I'll give you all three of this. You're right, it did not cost three million dollars. Wow. That's that's crazy. That would be insane to cost only three million dollars.
SPEAKER_02:It costs$30 million.
SPEAKER_00:$22 million.
SPEAKER_08:Get the fuck out of here. You can make a wider movie right now at$22 million.
SPEAKER_00:They probably spent it on the voiceovers for Dolph, but what um the box of voiceovers raked in, you'll never believe it.
SPEAKER_02:I swear to I swear to god, they did not make money.
SPEAKER_00:No,$17.3 million is all they made.
SPEAKER_02:Well, I mean yeah, that that makes sense. That tracks. That makes sense.
SPEAKER_00:That's yeah, that checks.
SPEAKER_03:But but I feel prepared to be so disappointed in humanity.
SPEAKER_00:So I okay, hold on, real quick, before I move forward with the rest of this conversation. And maybe I shouldn't know. Uh actually, I'm gonna bro, just delete everything I just said. No, never because I'm I I think I already know how you guys feel about the movie. And maybe it was because I was high, but I was having a good time. No, no, no, no, wait, okay, what do you mean you were having a good time?
SPEAKER_08:Come on, you gotta feed off that, okay? I gotta feed off that, okay? So I'm gonna I'm gonna back Grizz's on this, okay? Absolutely fucking fine. I actually said, like, after watching it, like the storyline wasn't horrific. No, it wasn't bad. It wasn't bad, it was it was okay, but for what they had to do, yes, for what they had to do to capture an audience, the storyline wasn't bad. I will give them that. So the the for that from that perspective, yes, it wasn't a bad movie, an aspect of that, but everything else outside of that was horrific in a train wreck.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. Um, dude, I have some great notes now that I'm read like I haven't read over these since I wrote fantastic. This is gonna be great. Yeah. So the first thing I want to kind of like highlight this came out in 1987. Yeah. This was what, two years wait, hold up, hold up, pause. Two years after Rocky IV. So this was Dolph's like first solo, um, not solo, but like lead role. Right. Yep. Like he's the lead man. I would argue Skeletor was the leader.
SPEAKER_03:I paid him 20 million about that.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, that's where their budget went. Stomping, bro. That's where their budget went. Nailed it. Um immediately felt like I was watching the Bollywood version of Star Wars. Okay, thank you.
SPEAKER_02:Because I literally I go go ahead.
SPEAKER_00:No, no, no. No, um so I immediately thought that and hold up, my note here, it's so fucking funny, dude. I'm watching, and I think I said, This feels like oh, I said this is so funny. I said, re this was for future me. I said, research if they used Pixar to do special effects, like in Star Wars. Yeah, which if you guys don't know, the company that worked on Star Wars, the the original trilogy, they had a computer that was named like Pixar something.
SPEAKER_06:Yep.
SPEAKER_00:And John Lasseter, one of the founders of Pixar, worked on that team, which was where did I write it? Somewhere in them notes. Oh, I hate myself. Yeah. Um, it was like I L M, which stood for some shit. Um, man, I'm so pissed. Anyway, I'll find it later when you guys are talking, because apparently I can't read and talk at the same time. That's right. That's okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Multitasking is a lot. It is a lot. I wonder if there's a second page that I'm just not seeing. There could be. Anyway, um yeah, so I was like, I was like, this feels like Star Wars. All the way down to like Skeletor's henchmen's helmets. Uh oh yes. Look like Vader's fucking troopers.
SPEAKER_03:Like, what are we talking about?
SPEAKER_00:They were just black. The little the little um the little white-haired goblin creature, like that person's suit looked like Darth Vader's suit, you know, like the stitching.
SPEAKER_01:Yes.
SPEAKER_00:So, like, and like you know, it's a product of its time. So, like the people working on these costume designs, they probably pays dead. Yeah, right.
SPEAKER_08:And like I said, it was from Star Wars to not not him and the cartoon. But nothing worse.
SPEAKER_00:But if you are if you okay, I feel like you guys might have watched this with the lens of the cartoon. Yes. Right, in the in the peripheral. I watched me about me. Ooh, hey, chill, chill, daddy, chill. What the hell is he in that? Oh that's wild. Um I I was watching this from like a I tried to watch it from the most um neutral, objective mind space I could. And just judge it on it's an 80s film telling a story. And I didn't hate it. I mean, yeah, some of the acting was like very dated. And the voiceover was hilarious because the lip sync was not great at times. Um, but if you're not fully watching, you're taking notes while you're listening, you don't really, you know, it's not that bad.
SPEAKER_08:So the one that's internalism. So I will say like for me, so like when I first started the the movie, like I had done, I turned around to do something, and the intro in the very beginning sounded like I was watching Superman. And like and and like the screen letters, like the way it was. I was like, wait, wait, wait, wait, did I turn on the wrong movie? I actually had to like pause to make sure I was watching the right movie. And um so that that was kind of just one little thing. Um so my problem is going to what you just said, Grizz, is so I grew up with the cartoon. Watch a cartoon every single day. And when I was younger, I watched this movie and I was like, this doesn't feel like Super or Superman, it doesn't feel like He-Man, but it's He-Man, like isk, I guess you'd say. So it was okay. Like it was it what I watched it for what was worth as a kid. Watching it as an adult and knowing that they had the source material right in front of them, all you know, Miss Meeks. Me cheeks. Yes, she said it perfect. She's like, all they had to like they copy and pasted. They just copy and pasted from the wrong source material. Like, like to be to be honest, like that's the biggest thing. If they would have had actual what the characters look like, I would probably be a little bit more appreciative of it. Because I do know it's an 80s movie, and I do know that the 80s movies were not the best. Come on, really?
SPEAKER_02:So when I was watching it, it was a very slow week this week at work, okay? Because of the weather, we didn't really have a lot to do, and it was a it was a snowy Tuesday afternoon. And I was like, you know what? I have a movie that I have to watch, and now would be a perfect time to watch it. And when I'm when I tell you I'm sitting in the office and I have this thing playing on my on my you know whole fucking nine and a half inch screen of of uh Samsung that I have, um people are asking me, they're like, Are you watching are you watching Star Wars? And I was like, No, I'm actually watching Masters of the Universe, whom I think was like I really love this Star Wars movie and I want something really, really close to it. So how do we do Star Wars without Star Wars? Because He-Man had blasters. I was like, I don't know. Yeah, so just to be fair, just to be fair, I was I wasn't a huge like yes, I enjoy He-Man, but I didn't watch it as much as Yeti did, because that was more like Yeti's uh generation of of cartoon growing up.
SPEAKER_04:Cartoons, right?
SPEAKER_02:Damn, he called you old. Well, I mean, I mean, we're all we're all getting there. I'm just there someday. Yeah, we're all we're all getting there. But I I know enough of He-Man to where I'm like, this is not He-Man. Now, this is why I always tell you guys, whenever, especially on like adaptations or anything like that, I always tell you I have two reviews. One as a fan of the of the original, and two as just a fan of good shows, movies, whatever. I always go in it because I'm always looking for, okay, they they missed on this. What did they hit on, right? Like what what did they do well and what did they do really shitty? The things they did really shitty, they missed bigger than shit. And that's the part where I was like, nah, fam, like you lost me because why even call it Masters of the Universe? You're right, Grizz. If you're just watching it and you don't have any idea what the fuck they're talking about, like it's just some movie called Masters of the Universe. As an 80s film, it's an 80s film, right? Like it's it's it's as to be expected. It feels very Star Wars y. Um, the the the uh the prosthetics, the costuming, the makeup. Um I for I forget little dude, the little troll. I mean, he reminded me of like the movie Troll from back in the 80s.
SPEAKER_08:Right. Uh Grindwall, Grindwall. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I'm just telling Grindle, something Grendel Grindel Gildor.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, Gildor, Gildor. And he's a Thanorian. Okay. See, I had to find that shit out.
SPEAKER_01:He said, I have to learn. I have to learn. So it's like they didn't trust little homie.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, no shit, no shit. So I'm just like, there were there were aspects of like, as you guys have been mentioning, um, it was it was of other movies, yeah, for its time, right? For for for what they were trying to follow, what they were trying to capture. But for him again, why even call it Masters of the Universe? You could have called it anything else, and you would have been okay, right? For at least at least from my perspective. I can see that.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, he didn't have the purple, purple and green tigers, right?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, like like that was it was that was huge for He-Man. His his tiger was like his best friend. Wow.
SPEAKER_00:So I'm like that. Clearly, clearly it was not.
SPEAKER_02:And when I say when I say like when they got when it got to the end and He-Man hopped on like that little uh uh uh pod thing and he just took off, I was like, oh the CGI. Yeah, I was like, oh I was like, oh, the CGI is so bad. So bad. So bad.
SPEAKER_03:Put a man in a loincloth in a Star Wars movie. That's it, yep. That's it, that's it. That was the He-Man edition is the fact that like I felt like I was in two different time zones because this man has a loincloth, just like sprinkled salt fade, just like a little bit of He-Man and a loincloth, and then everything else was set in 3025.
SPEAKER_02:That's it, in a galaxy far, far away.
SPEAKER_03:For he-Man. I thought he time traveled. I thought he was a time traveler.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, they they kind of did. I mean, that was he.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, yeah, which is it's really hopping universes more than like I mean that's time travel. That's fair, but like I'm talking like like linear time travel. It looked like he was a caveman going to 3025, right?
SPEAKER_00:That's so true, but then they acted like they were so much more advanced, like little Gildor over here, like retrofitted Elvis Mobile, yeah, to like not run on carbon.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, it was it was pretty wild. And then and then and then to see the parallels though, when they're like, okay, the key to whatever, um uh and and this piano, they're very similar.
SPEAKER_01:Guitar?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, right, right, right. It's like golden guitar.
SPEAKER_00:I was like, I was like, what? How did how did you how did we get here? I feel like I feel like you guys weren't high enough to watch this movie because I saw what they were fucking doing.
SPEAKER_03:Probably not, probably not. I don't want to get it confused at all. I had a blast watching this bad boy. I have no negative feelings towards this movie. I just shook it the entire time. I was like, oh, this is what we're doing, yeah. Okay, this is what we're doing.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I think it was mostly just questioning like some of the some of the things that they did and try to pull off. Like, like I know, I know what uh Miss Me Seeks, the video you sent where you your your your little bit of reaction, and the part where you were like, Julie, you know that's not your mama. I literally said the same thing. I was like, Julie, you know good and damn well that bitch is dead. Like, why are you why are you falling for this?
SPEAKER_03:Your brain was developing. Why are you being a good thing? D E D dead, not coming back. You didn't even stop to question it.
SPEAKER_08:No, wait a minute. They did time travel. Where where are you what?
SPEAKER_00:Well, at the very end, the parents are alive, they had to back travel back into time. Oh, yeah, they used that key to send her back to the end of the guy.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, at the end, at the end of the movie. Right. So they're technically speaking, they did time travel. At the end of the movie, they did, because they were like, Oh, you know what? Julie, Julie's kind of cool. We can help her out. And that's exactly what Julie's kind of cool.
SPEAKER_00:Gilboard liked that Courtney Cox. He was like, hey, yo.
SPEAKER_02:He said, Hey girl, hey girl. No, his favorite.
SPEAKER_07:Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
SPEAKER_02:Or the joke. I think he was mostly more about the fried chicken than anything, but go ahead, Yeti.
SPEAKER_08:No, facts, facts. No, my biggest my biggest complaint about this movie is the fact that He-Man never changed forms.
SPEAKER_02:Not once. And if you noticed the sword wasn't even the sword skeletor. The sword wasn't even the sword, though. Like, if you notice that the design of the they couldn't even get the design of the sword right. That was an issue for me. I was like, I just what? What? I had to listen. I getting older sucks because you get more. Critical of things, and and don't get me wrong, as much as I enjoy a fun, campy ass movie, which is exactly what Master the Universe is. Yep, it's just this, it's just campy, cheesy fucking film. They absolutely nailed what they were going for. So I'm not upset about that. It's just again, you have source material right there. Like, how do you take that big of a swing and miss?
SPEAKER_03:And miss.
SPEAKER_02:Right.
SPEAKER_03:Who needs source material when you have 30 million dollars and record like that?
SPEAKER_00:And you spend 20 million of it on cocaine.
SPEAKER_02:So hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on. I wanna okay.
SPEAKER_08:It was it was just a tax write-off to buy cocaine. That was a crazy hell of a drug.
SPEAKER_02:So I want I want to point this out, and and this is kind of leading me to my next point, okay? Especially about source material, because I've never played the game, but um, I don't know if you guys heard of the new movie that just came out. It's called Iron Lung. And it's made by a huge gamer called Markiplier. And he I think he I think he paid for it all himself, and they said that that was the most faithful adaptation from a game or anything that has ever been made, and it's making Hollywood look bad. So is it safe to say that source material kind of is like important for what for what they do? I have preached on this show. Keep the characters, keep the characters faithful to who they are. You can send them on whatever fucking journey you want to. As long as they are the characters that we know and love, we're okay with it. So why couldn't they get that with Masters of the Universe? I can tell you why.
SPEAKER_03:Because they had$30 million in free will. Jesus Christ. That's it. That's obviously it.
SPEAKER_01:And that's why it failed.
SPEAKER_08:What I think happens in Hollywood a lot um make their money back. But well, they get these they get these green lights to make a movie, right? And I feel like they see what's popular or what's making money at the time. Yes. And then they're like, hey, we just got greenlit to make this movie. We need to somehow make that same amount of money. So what can we do to make it similar but not exact? Yes, yes, and then they fall into that that that that that they should have just made it exact.
SPEAKER_00:It probably would have hit a lot harder.
SPEAKER_02:I th I think it I think it would have. It probably would have. Honestly. I think it would have. Now I did I I did hear that, especially in Hollywood. Um, whenever a movie does really well, they they they do have an influx of movies that are very, very similar. And and a lot of those directors, producers, whatever, they just hope that lightning strikes twice. That's literally all it comes down to. And I think I think they missed on this one. I mean, obviously they missed on this one because again, they didn't even break even in the box office, which is absolutely okay. That's okay. I'm okay with that.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, see now. I mean, it could have it could have sold DVDs. That was just the box office numbers from Wikipedia. I'm sorry, VHS. Yeah, VHSs. Oh, you're right. Yeah, it was 1987. How dare you?
SPEAKER_02:You even skipped Laserdisc.
SPEAKER_00:Sorry, fam, sorry, fam.
SPEAKER_03:He said DVDs so confidently, I was like, Listen, let's be honest.
SPEAKER_02:Stop living in the present, Grizz.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, we don't we're not even talking about their Blu-ray numbers, dude.
SPEAKER_08:As much hate as we're giving this this this movie, I just want to say thank you for making the movie. For sure, because it has allowed for the 2026 version to know what not to do. The trailer, right? T-Man trailer that is what two minutes long, two minutes and 15 seconds long is leaps and bounds better than the two-hour movie that we watched, or the hour and 45-minute movie that that was.
SPEAKER_03:Okay, I want to let you know that my thought when I was watching the trailer was golly, this is gonna be Masters of the Universe, the original in 30 years. Yes. Yes. So I don't know. Like, I want to agree with you, Chancey. Like, oh my god, this is so much better. But then in 30 years, we're gonna have the same thought about this movie.
SPEAKER_08:No, I don't think so. And and and I and I think it's gonna I think it's gonna all come down to source. It's gonna come down as well. It's gonna come down as source material because as Jay just said, we love the movies that stick to the source material. You can send them on any journey you want because that's irrelevant because they all do different shit different times. Like, but give me the He-Man that transforms, which they're gonna go into. Give me Battle Cat, which they're gonna give me. Give me Skeletor that looks like skeleton. That looks like Skeletor. He does he's not supposed to have eyeballs.
SPEAKER_03:Get past that part. Skeletor is not supposed to have ice that skeleton? Is that supposed I was shocked. I was shooking.
SPEAKER_00:Listen, again, listen, I'm glad we finally arrived at Skeletor because I have notes.
unknown:Who the fuck was that?
SPEAKER_00:Bring it on. Bring it on. Okay, all right. Here, buckle up, buttercups. Oh, we're we're strapped in. You guys are probably gonna be disappointed that I don't have as much hate as you guys do. He's like, I love Skeletour. It wasn't like that was his movie, first of all. Second of all, yes, it was.
SPEAKER_08:He was a main character.
SPEAKER_00:Aside from his mask, like the prosthetics and like the like the mask wasn't 100% bad. It wasn't great because they it was um like like one of those latex masks that they just kind of like fixed to like the mouth area so the jaw could move. Limitation of the time, whatever. I'll wave past it because it's it's fine, it's whatever. The eyes part was a little weird, but truthfully, I kind of just let it ride. You know, I was like, whatever, it's limitation of the time. The things that bothered me was the fucking color scheme. I liked the the texture, the pattern of the hood, the clothing, the robes, all of it, no notes, except for why the fuck was it black? Right. Why wasn't it the Star Wars proper like blue? Star Wars, yeah, you right Emperor. No, you're still right. And like at one point I was like, why is Palpatine on the screen?
SPEAKER_02:Everything was Star Wars, everything was Star Wars.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, it was. It was co it well, and here's why. I'm glad we're back on this. So the production company was the Canon group, and they hired Boss Film Studios to do special effects. Who was the founder of Boss Film Studios? You ask? Don't worry, I got you. I did ask Richard Edlin, who was a core member of the OG Edlin.
SPEAKER_03:Exactly.
SPEAKER_00:See, you guys, you see, it's all making sense now. It does, full circle. Excuse me. He was a founding member to the industrial light and magic company that worked on Star Wars, I L M. C, which later turns into Pixar Animation Studios. Okay, fun facts. It's Star Wars. And I did the research at the end of the movie, proud of me, by the way. Still was high and two beers deep. And um I I started digging. Good job. Thank you, thank you. I started digging and I was like, motherfucker, there is a through line. And I was so proud because I was like, This is Star Wars. It's Star Wars. That's all we did. We watched sense now. We watched, yeah. So, like, everyone's like, You watch a Star Wars? It's like kind of, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:In a way, yes, yes, in a way, in a very random way. No, honestly, honestly, so okay, here we go. You you you're ready to fuck some people up. You ready to you're ready to make your own head cannon? So, what we can do is Masters of the Universe is actually a Star Wars tale. Like, add that to the end of it. Add that to the end of it. Oh, Masters of the Universe, a Star Wars tale. A Star Wars tale. It's just something that happens in the Star Wars universe. All they were missing was a subtitle. That's it. That's it. That's it.
SPEAKER_08:You didn't need like changed. Yeah, if you would have called one of the characters in there Darth Vader or Yoda, it would have all made like you nobody would have had an eye.
SPEAKER_00:Bro, they had that one character that looked like a lizard. Yes. I don't know. Probably like a president or something now. Right. Wait, wait.
SPEAKER_01:So wait, didn't the lizard character or the joke. What'd you say, Yeti? Didn't the lizard character die? Maybe. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That thing got liquidated, dude.
SPEAKER_08:Yeah, yeah. Or yeah, whatever he did. Yeah, he got he got zapped by a by a lightsaber blaster. Yeah, cuz because I mean No no no, it wasn't.
SPEAKER_00:It was it was Skeletor doing some Palpatine shit. See, he was all pissed because they didn't bring back. Oh, you're right, you're right. You're right.
SPEAKER_03:Shooting one one person, but like forgetting that she had the power to shoot anybody else during one of the like initial scenes. Like she had the gun, she shot somebody, and then just was like, I can't help you anymore.
SPEAKER_02:She forgot she forgot how it worked. She's like, wait, how did you? How did I know this?
SPEAKER_03:She was like a sharpshooter. She needed some magic mind, bro. And then was like, I'm done.
SPEAKER_08:When the when the when the villains came into town, when the villains came into town and Courtney Cox took off running, she's like, Oh my god, there's you know, there's there's bad people back there, and she initially runs into He-Man. Yeah, he goes, Don't worry, I'll save you, and just picks her up and runs off with her. Yeah, yeah. Just a total stranger.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, just a total stranger. In a dark alley, too. It was in a dark alley. There's bad people, there's monsters. He's like, It's okay, sweetheart. I gotcha. It's like, I'll clean that people. Yeah, little little did she know there's a white van waiting for her. What's great? Right, right.
SPEAKER_00:Uh, I'm I was just skimming through my notes and I forgot that I have a really funny fucking thing I wrote down. Um, I with these costumes, with the vibe, I really wish that it would have been a rock opera, dude.
SPEAKER_02:Yo, it would it would have sold more. I think it would have sold more. I'll tell you what.
SPEAKER_00:It was an epic like fight scene when I saw when I thought this, and I was like, damn.
SPEAKER_03:That fight had a musical instrument as a weapon, yeah.
SPEAKER_00:It wrote itself.
SPEAKER_02:It wrote itself.
SPEAKER_00:Setting on the kitar.
SPEAKER_02:Yep, it it wrote itself. And honestly, that last fight between between He-Man and Skeletor as a rock opera would have oh, it would have sold me. Like that would like with a with an epic guitar rift, yes, with an epic guitar rift as they're fighting, as they're clashing. Oh my god.
SPEAKER_00:Oh my Jesus Christ superstar level production. It would have had me.
SPEAKER_01:It would have that would have now that would have sold me. That would have saved dude.
SPEAKER_00:22 million, they would have made like 150 million. Easily, easily easily.
SPEAKER_02:We would have had at least three more movies after that. Yeah, I guarantee. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:People would have been like Dolph from Rocky Ford.
SPEAKER_03:In the upside down with the back. Exactly. Yeah.
SPEAKER_08:Exactly. Do you think any of them regret making that movie? 100%. Yes. Yes, they do.
SPEAKER_03:Absolutely not. They had the greatest time of their life. Nah, Dolph London probably doesn't talk about it.
SPEAKER_08:They don't remember that time, bro.
SPEAKER_02:Exactly. Dolph London probably doesn't talk about it.
SPEAKER_08:They were so high on cocaine.
SPEAKER_02:He's like, hey, you remember that movie you made back in the 80s? He's like, oh yeah. What, Rocky Four? Yeah, Rocky Four. Yeah, no, the other one. What other one? The other one. I don't know what you're talking about. And this is how they gaslit us into believing that Sinbad never did a genie movie. Damn. Because it was so bad. Like, we have to make these people forget about this.
SPEAKER_03:That's what it is. Found it out. We'll never forget. Never. Hashtag never forget.
SPEAKER_02:No shit. So anyway, um, I believe the new He-Man, does that come out this year? That comes out this year, yes.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, 2026. Like June 25th or something. Okay.
SPEAKER_02:What? So, so who is legitimately ready for like what could possibly be the first actual live action He-Man we actually get? I know you're going to be able to do that.
SPEAKER_00:I don't know if I'm ready. But I might cut my hair to like the He-Man Bob. Let's go. Also, I wrote in my notes. Uh, this is so funny. I I said, um, where is his bowl cut? And then I realized he doesn't really have a bowl cut, he just has like the ear muffs thing. Yeah. But still, his hair wasn't cartoon accurate. Um but I thought it was nothing like his bowl cut.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, just just add that to the list of not non-canon shit.
SPEAKER_00:Two more crazy, two more crazy thoughts. At one hour and 16 minutes into the movie, I said, not a single skeletor cackle is bothering me.
SPEAKER_02:Yo, yo.
SPEAKER_00:And then at an hour and 36 minutes, which is when the movie's almost over, I said, not a single skeletor cackle. The disappointment is an understatement.
SPEAKER_02:He had to write that down twice. Now, I will say, I will say.
SPEAKER_00:Well, I was keeping track.
SPEAKER_02:No, I get it. I get it. Because that was that was also bothering me. Because I was like, Skeletor doesn't feel like Skeletor. Because he's not, he's not like, I'll get you for this, He-Man. Like, I was that was missing. And then, like, in the trailer, I watched a trailer and uh I seen a comment underneath of it where somebody said, If Skeletor isn't just spitting random facts and running away in this movie, I'm gonna lose my shit.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, right.
SPEAKER_02:Remember, remember!
SPEAKER_08:Hey, I got a question. Yes. Does anybody want to go with me to New Jersey on April 2nd, 2022?
SPEAKER_02:You can stop reading because we all said yes.
SPEAKER_08:To meet Dolph Lundron to get him designed. Yes.
SPEAKER_03:Yes, yes, I was a very false, yes, at the beginning, but like. We're doing it live. Yeah, now it's a hard one.
SPEAKER_01:We'll write it, we'll do it live.
SPEAKER_02:No, like, like, no, I'm all for it because I will I will work up a piece of art with Dolph Lundron from Masters of the Universe, and I will be like, sign this.
SPEAKER_00:He's gonna be like, you know, I was in Rocky IV, right? You're like, yeah, I know.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I know.
SPEAKER_08:That's my favorite movie. He was in Columbus, not familiar. He was in Columbus uh in December. Yeah, yes, like Christopher, yes. He was all in Damn, damn.
SPEAKER_00:Damn. I'm willing to probably jump back around. Did you guys pick up on like some of the subtle progressiveness in the movie though? So, like, what was the the like He-Man chick um like team lady with like the skin tight suit and the weirdly placed straps? Um her dad was like that job. Tila, Tila, she looks dead at the camera and goes, Woman at arms.
SPEAKER_06:Oh yeah, yes, yes.
SPEAKER_00:Like at first, at first I was like, that felt forced. And then I was like, nah, I'm here for it. Fuck it.
SPEAKER_03:Her little the haunts she had for He-Man. Yeah, tell me why she was like, He-Man said, 'Did you have any luck?' And she said, I didn't, but it looks like you did. Yeah, bro.
SPEAKER_00:She was twisted. Crazy. He was twisted. Relax this. Hands off.
SPEAKER_02:Hands off my man.
SPEAKER_00:That's what she was. That's my skeletor. But like the what do they what do we call them? The etern and eternals or what eternia. Eternal Eternia. Yeah, Eternians. Yeah, the yeah, the Eternians, they like when they kept saying the natives, but at one point they like they they said uh they were looking at Courtney Cox, I think. And this was like Skeletor's crew, I believe. And they said uh the native girl. And I wrote, that feels racist for some reason.
SPEAKER_02:I'm not this has nothing to do with your race or color, but you need to get out of here, boy.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, it kind of feels like both of those things when you add boy to the I was like, I was like, hey, yo, like what are we doing?
SPEAKER_02:That's actually that's actually wild. Yeah, that's actually wild. But I think overall, I think overall As Yeti said in the beginning, I'm glad that they made it, okay, because that allows us to have a stark contrast of what we're about to get this year, because no shot, no shot would I be okay with it if they decided to make that slop in 2026. No, I'd ride it. I was about to say I'd riot. I'd probably burn some cars for that. Like I would hate it. No, no, no, that would okay. If they did it now, I guarantee you that would be on Tubi. That that wouldn't go to theaters, that'd go straight to Tubi.
SPEAKER_01:That's true. That's true. For free. For free. That's crazy.
SPEAKER_02:But no, right? I am I am excited for the new for the new Masters of the Universe, for the new He-Man. Um, especially with all the uh with the new animes that we've gotten, the new uh animations that we've had over the years leading up to it. Um especially uh the one that Kevin Smith made. Uh what was it? Was it Revelations, I think it was? Yeti? Yes, yes. Yeah, that was that was solid. Like if you guys do get a chance to watch that, that one that one is actually it's it's solid. I think it's in two parts.
SPEAKER_08:They made they made actually two Netflix ones. Yeah. Two Netflix He Man specials recently.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, yeah. I know uh the Kevin Smith one is the one that I that is the last one that I watched. I didn't watch um the latest one. Um the the the new animations were pretty solid, but I am excited for the new Masters of the Universe. It looks fun, it looks like it's going to be a big adventure, like it should have been, right? Back in the 80s. I mean, I guess it was for the time. Again, it was skewing a tad Star Wars. Okay, it was just Star Wars. It was a ripoff. So But now we get our own Masters of the Universe. It will stand on its own, it'll have its own thing, and it'll feel nice to have something different. I heard you say something, Grizz.
SPEAKER_00:Uh I don't know if I say anything, but I do have like You made a noise. I feel I feel so did I damn my bad. That was unconscious. Um I have two more things that I wanted to highlight. Go ahead. Um so I'll start with I'll start with the funny, and then it's not that funny, but the other thing is more serious. Um when when we see was it the Grey Castle? Yeah, like Skeletor Castle.
SPEAKER_06:Castle Gray Skull, yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Yes, yeah, Castle Grey's Gull. I literally wrote uh Skeletor's crib looks like Asgard.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, a little bit. A little bit, a little bit, dude. A little bit. Dude, I was like, hey, where's Thor?
SPEAKER_02:That was He-Man.
SPEAKER_01:Oh yeah, I got I got one more thing, too.
SPEAKER_00:Um and the other the other thing, uh, there was a quote that was said at the end, and I was like, I gotta write this shit down just for me personally.
SPEAKER_01:Uh-oh.
SPEAKER_00:Uh, it said, live the journey for every destination is but a doorway to another. I was like, damn.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah. That was kind of deep.
SPEAKER_00:Good ass quote. That was deep.
SPEAKER_01:That was deep. I'll give them that. I'll give them that. There was some good shit.
SPEAKER_00:There was some good shit through that crack cocaine.
SPEAKER_02:That cocaine-induced fever dream of a movie. Absolutely. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_08:You the the last thing I just want to say is people are complaining about the new actor's size, saying that's not true He-Man's size. That's so stupid. I think it's stupid because the one thing that people are that the biggest thing that people complain about for Masters of the Universe was it was just hot garbage. Then nobody ever says Dolph wasn't big enough. Yeah, Dolph was. But if you compare the two actors, they're very close in size. They're pretty similar. That's interesting. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Officially, I had that same thought about both of them.
SPEAKER_08:So, yes, yes, to be fair, if you're gonna say about it. Yeah, if you're gonna say it about both, or if you're gonna say it about one, it needs to be said about both. Because He-Man is a triangle. What are you talking about? He-Man is a triangle. That dude, if you watch the cartoon from the 80s, that dude is a freaking freight train when he transforms. His upper body is just I mean, his lower body is too, but yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Wait, you say he got the Johnny Bravo?
SPEAKER_08:Yeah, a little bit.
SPEAKER_00:Don't touch the hair.
SPEAKER_08:Yeah, a little bit, yeah. I mean, yeah, don't touch the hair.
unknown:Who ha hoo.
SPEAKER_03:No, I knew I made him look like Johnny Bravo. And I told him you look like Johnny Bravo.
SPEAKER_02:So, so fun fact, it's part of my stimming like every day. I will literally just randomly just be like, Don't touch the hair. And people will kind of chuckle. They're like, Is that Johnny Bravo? I'm like, yeah, it lives rent-free in my brain. So but for me, I'm just like, I don't care about right? I don't I don't care about the size of the actor, right? Like, I'm not looking for something outlandishly huge. Again, I need was it the was it the huge comment, Grizz?
SPEAKER_00:No, it's not the it's not the size of the actor.
SPEAKER_01:It's not the size of the actor. It's it's the emotion in the ocean.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, it's the emotion in the ocean. It's not about the size of the actor, right? Like, like, like, can he portray He Man? That's all the fuck I'm worried about. Everybody's always worried about aesthetics, right? They they he doesn't look the part. Wonderful. Listen, he's big enough, right? Like I I I can say he's bigger than me. Yeah. Like I don't have I don't look I don't have those rippling muscles or anything. I don't have any of that.
SPEAKER_06:Right.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, he's he looks like He-Man to me. I like what the fuck? People want Dwayne The Rock Johnson or or the guy that plays Reacher. They want they want all of them because they're like, he he'll look just like him. Okay, but can he act like that? But Reacher can't act.
SPEAKER_08:For the record, that that dude can't act.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, that's have you seen okay? That's a whole nother conversation. I'm not gonna dive into that because we got we we gotta get to the end of the episode. Um, but overall, in closing, if you haven't watched Masters of the Universe 1987 version, have fun, knock yourself out, go nuts, get some friends, make some uh DiGorno pizza, do not order out because you're gonna want to put it in that delivery, it's DeGorno right. At the end of it, you're gonna be like, I wish I would have saved my money, even though you watched it for free.
SPEAKER_00:You're not gonna want to save your money, ball out, just like they did on that budget.
SPEAKER_03:Ah, fuck that. Just get yourself. That would have been a movie night gem. It would have. It absolutely would have.
SPEAKER_00:Yes. Imagine being in 1987, a movie comes out on VHS because DVDs didn't exist, remember? You go down to your local blockbuster and you're like, what movie should we grab? And you're like, Fox, I really yeah. You grab that, you get your they probably didn't have sour skittles, but whatever. And you're you're you're fucking like you get your you get your Charleston Chews, you get your Charleston choose and your Chris Crystal Pepsi. Oh, and you take that bitch back home. Yeah, that's a good movie night, bro. No notes. You loved it.
SPEAKER_02:No, like, like for real, for real. Again, put yourself in 1987, perfect. They crushed whatever it was that they were going for.
SPEAKER_03:Well, actually, objectively, no, because they set the box. No, no, no.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, so so yes, objectively, yeah, objectively, trash, right? Like, like the people smoke and they were like nostalgia, bro.
SPEAKER_03:And our nostalgia, we're like, yeah, this is what it was like in the 80s for sure. Right.
SPEAKER_02:But if you're again, if you're looking for the campy, fun, cheesy fucking movie from the 80s that you really want to just like it's almost like brain rot, go for it. You will you will enjoy yourself, I promise you that. It's it you can look think of it as a rock opera and like add your own soundtrack in your head. Oh, dude.
SPEAKER_00:You know what I mean? You know what I mean? Can we talk about how actually we don't need to talk about it? Can I just say the douchebag boyfriend saving the day? Because he had like fucking bro uh uh fucking uh what's what's his name? Um what's what's the what's the the piano player with the shaved eyebrow that has perfect pitch? Charlie something.
SPEAKER_03:Charlie Oh, Charlie Pooth. Man, Charlie Pooth.
SPEAKER_00:Charlie Charlie Pooth. Yeah, my boy was like Charlie Pooth.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, no, he was, he was, he was the rain man, he was the rain man of freaking no, he he absolutely was.
SPEAKER_00:Hey bro, I know that key. Little gnome homie was like, wait, you play music? Yeah, he was like, how the movie could have been an hour shorter?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, yeah. You mean we could have avoided all of this and we just spoke to you. That's amazing. But no, like like again, if you en if you want a good, campy, cheesy fucking movie, have at it. It's on Tubi. You're not spending anything, you just gotta download the app. It's got ads, sure. You don't even have to download the app. But I promise you, I promise you, you will look forward to the ad breaks. At least I did.
SPEAKER_00:I was like, oh my god, when is bro, those ad breaks were perfect for note taking.
SPEAKER_02:Swear, swear. I was like, bro, can you please just give me a break from this just for a minute? Just for a minute. I need to, I need to like I had a great time.
SPEAKER_00:I'm not gonna lie. I'm pretty sure in my notes I wrote, I wrote, I'm having a good time.
SPEAKER_02:This is a great fucking time.
SPEAKER_00:Say what you want, say what you want about Skeletor, but I like his outfit.
SPEAKER_02:Fucking Skeletor. It just irritates anyway. Let me not fall back down there. It comes out in four months. Yeah, I know. So get ready um for the new I'm fucking stoked. Yeah, get ready for the new Masters of the Universe, get ready for the new He-Man, the He-Man that we all deserved. Uh, can't wait to see Battle Cat on the big screen. He's gonna be absolutely fucking phenomenal. So um I think we can segue right into this because Grizz has had some wonderful thoughts, but I think it's high time that Grizz drops some knowledge on us. Ask us ask us a question, Grizz.
SPEAKER_00:Hell yeah. This is timely. Do you ever think about how the Super Bowl is America's version of the Roman Coliseum? Ooh. Or is that just me? No? Okay. I mean, we're not killing people.
SPEAKER_02:Uh, it's it's still pretty brutal. Well, yeah, we've tamed him and we've it's been tamed in a coliseum. And to be very fair, and to be very fair, I'm not trying to make light of it. We the some people have died on the field. Like it has been they've been brought back to life. Yeah, yeah, that's very true.
SPEAKER_03:People typically aren't cheering, like yeah.
SPEAKER_02:No, no, you're right, you're right.
SPEAKER_08:We're not like the idea. People in a separate Super Bowl halftime probably cheered. Yeah, right.
SPEAKER_00:That's diabolical. Yeah, that is crazy. It's crazy. Hold on.
SPEAKER_02:It's crazy with that.
SPEAKER_00:What's he looking for?
SPEAKER_02:Um, probably something offensive to say.
SPEAKER_00:I gotta googling too. Those little fingers are typing and really like this.
SPEAKER_03:Hey, for the joke.
SPEAKER_01:Oh he was struggling to find it. It took you that long. It's literally a drum. It's a picture of the channel.
SPEAKER_00:I know I put it in here. I know I put this shit in here for the ring. God damn it.
SPEAKER_02:Oh my god. Anyway, no, good question, Grizz. Uh, that's for uh that was that was a true high thought. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's that that's for all you there. Uh discuss it. Like, you know, is is it the modern day Coliseum? Who knows? I mean, a lot of people have like equated it to that, but have at it. Uh fire off in the in the comments. Now, we're gonna get into fun and games, uh, because I know we're we're approaching time here. Um I just want to ask a quick question. Who do you think would win between SWAT cats and the biker mice from Mars? I'm gonna say the cat and mouse, eh? Hey, see what I did there? SWATCats or biker mice from Mars. Who takes that? Who takes that W? High diff, no diff, low diff. Hold on. Let me say, let me let me let me Google it. Let me Google it.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let me let me let me educate myself.
SPEAKER_02:That's fair, that's fair. As a SWAT cats fan, I gotta give it to SWATKs. Because they are they're literally like they are they have air superiority, and I don't think the biker mice from Mars are ready for that. Because they're stuck to the ground with their little bikes, with their little with their little Harley Davidson's. I think SWATCats takes the win. I think it'll be mid-diff because they are biker mice from Mars. They're alien mice, so fair, fair. You know what I mean? You know what I mean? But I think with Swat Katz air superiority, I think they take the W. That's just me though.
SPEAKER_03:As somebody going in completely blind, let's go biker mice from Mars because they're biker mice from Mars.
SPEAKER_01:Because they're tough and they have tattoos.
SPEAKER_08:I'm going, I'm gonna go biker mice from Mars just because there's one extra person as well. One extra mice is okay. One extra mice. Yeah, power power in numbers, power in numbers. But if I have superiority, you gotta be able to call it in. And I think the biker mice enough and harder.
SPEAKER_02:Do you don't then you don't know, then you don't know SWAT cats, because they don't need anybody to call it in. They literally just do the shit. That's what they do. It's what they do, it's how they fight people.
SPEAKER_00:Is there like are they vigilantes?
SPEAKER_02:Yes. Uh uh uh the SWAT cats.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yes, in a way they are. So so they're they're not SWAT SWAT.
SPEAKER_02:No, they're not SWAT SWAT. They are literally they operate on their own. That is heavily gonna change my no, they they they operate on their own.
SPEAKER_00:Like, I was about to go with some Martian mice, you know what I'm saying? That's fair, that's fair. But the outfit's looking pretty sick, y'all. Yeah, I'm telling you right now.
SPEAKER_02:I love the SWAT cats. SWAT cats are my are my dudes.
SPEAKER_00:Like they kind of you know what they're giving?
SPEAKER_02:What's that?
SPEAKER_00:They're giving little bad boys. A little bit, a little bit, Mike Laura.
SPEAKER_08:I wanna be, I'm wanna be like my the skinny ones, Mike Lowry. Yeah, yeah, the good ones 100.
SPEAKER_00:Yep, 100%, bro. I get it. I'm going with SWAT cats just for Mike Lowry. Mike Lowry.
SPEAKER_02:So so we got two SWAT cats, we got one biker mice from Mars. Yeti, who do you think would win? I think biker mice. Okay, so it's split. It's split. It's a 50-50. Oh my god. So, okay, well, you know what? That means that we're gonna have to go to our listeners for the tiebreaker and let us know who you think would win. Uh, between the SWAT cats and biker mice from Mars. If you guys want to do a little bit more research, you can, and we can maybe discuss it on an extra lives episode or something like that. Ooh, that'd be fun. Right?
SPEAKER_08:I'd have to watch some episodes just to get a better vibe of it.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, please please do so on on both of them. I mean, I don't know where to find them. Uh, we'll have to do our research on the internet.
SPEAKER_00:Right.
SPEAKER_08:To be no, it's the two of old school classic cartoons on it. Yes, they do. Yeah, yes, they do. They don't have Batman.
SPEAKER_00:The animated series? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, that's that I think that's that was the allure for the. And I think they also made uh Batman the Animated Series, so that's probably why uh they look very similar. Um, but yeah, I'm sure uh we'll we'll look for it and we we'll have a discussion for it.
SPEAKER_01:So with that, um, who's ready for a fun fact? Oh Hanna Barbera, sorry, my bad. No, it's all good.
SPEAKER_02:Hannah Barbera cartoons it's all good. I love I love Hanna Barbera cartoons. They're they're they're actually really well. Iconic. They are. So who wants a fun fact? Me.
SPEAKER_03:I do.
SPEAKER_02:Chris, Me Seeks, uh, Yeti.
SPEAKER_03:Me Cheeks. Yeah, that's here. Yeah, let's go.
SPEAKER_02:Me Cheeks, get it right, buddy. It's 2026. Say my name right. Say my name. Okay.
SPEAKER_06:Say my name, say my name.
SPEAKER_02:Did you know? Y'all ready for this?
SPEAKER_03:I like how we all win.
SPEAKER_02:Listen, we haven't done that in a while. That's why I was like, you know what? I need to ask that. Um, but did you know that a penguin can reach depths of 550 meters in a single dive?
SPEAKER_00:Come on, Danny DeVito, let's get it.
SPEAKER_02:I don't know what that means. Okay, so here's wait, the Danny DeVito joke?
SPEAKER_03:No, you think I know what 550 meters is? I don't know. Okay, well yeah, what's the one?
SPEAKER_02:I need that freedom units. Okay, well, let me let me go with this, okay? Here's the ridiculous depth a penguin can swim to in one breath. Penguins are skilled divers, transitioning from land to water with smooth movements. But what's the deepest a penguin can actually dive? The deepest diving penguins are emperor penguins, who also dive deeper than any birds. Typically, they plunge 100 to 200 meters, or in freedom units, 330 to 650 feet into the chilly depths of the southern ocean around Antarctica as they hunt for krill and fish. The deepest penguin dive on record was more than 550 meters, or, in Freedom Units, about 1,800 feet. In 2013, an emperor carrying an electronic tag stayed underwater for more than half an hour, breaking previous records by five minutes. The penguins keep warm with an outer waterproof layer of contour feathers paired with an undercoat of fluffy after feathers and uh plumals that trap insulating air next to the skin. So they stay warm as they get into that icy frigid water. But that's why we love penguins, right? And just so those, just so you know, I do have an uh uh a very unhealthy obsession with penguins. So fun fact about sweet baby J. But there you go. There's your fun fact. Penguins dive really deep.
SPEAKER_00:What did he say? What did he say? Oh yeah, that was fucking well placed. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, hang on. Deeper. So with that being said, we will get the hell out of here because we are at time. Um join us next time in two weeks, where I think uh Miss Me Seeks or Me Cheeks, whichever one you want to go with at this point, because Yeti just butchered the potato. Potato potato. Potato potato. Listen, it's always potato because nobody says potato. Um if join us in Miss Seeks either.
SPEAKER_03:You're right. No, Yeti does.
SPEAKER_02:Yeti does. At least one person does. Miss Me Cheeks. Me Seeks, that's what I said. No, no, it's yeah.
SPEAKER_00:I don't know why you think I said something.
SPEAKER_02:What is wrong with you? Are you not listening? God, clean out your ears. So join us in two weeks. Uh, we will do a Super Bowl Digest uh episode because today, as of this recording, today's a big day, and we only are a few hours shy of watching the rematch of the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots. Do they have a little bit?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, I'll gotta fuck this up.
SPEAKER_02:Well, Pete Carroll isn't there, um, so they shouldn't, but Stranger Things have happened. Listen. And it's on Netflix.
SPEAKER_00:January 5th, your boy Grizz all it's on Netflix? Yeah, Stranger Things. Oh, Stranger Things. Because Stranger Things have happened.
SPEAKER_02:That's the joke. So anyway. I'm so dead.
SPEAKER_00:So anyway, um I predicted this shit. They better win.
SPEAKER_02:Hey, listen, you got you're ready. No, he did. He did, he did.
SPEAKER_03:He did.
SPEAKER_02:It's crazy work. Yeah, he did. Honestly, though, I will say, I think if Bo Nick doesn't get injured, I think it I think Denver makes it. I I honestly do Denver makes it.
SPEAKER_08:Denver was a better team than fucking Patriots.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I th I I think I think it'd be Denver. I think it'd be Denver. It was. It was yes, 10-7. 10-7. And that's why I say if Bo Nick doesn't go out injured uh the game before, they win that game. 100%. Yeah. Um here we go.
SPEAKER_00:He got hurt before the Pats game.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, before the Pats game, and and they had to they had to bring him back up. And apparently Yeti has found uh uh uh the soundboard, apparently. And we need to wrap this up because he's getting ridiculous with it. Alright, alright, alright. That's it. I'm gonna have to mute him. No, we're done. Okay, so join us in two weeks.
