Happy anniversary to us. Happy anniversary to us. What's up?
Speaker 2:Happy birthday to us.
Speaker 3:Happy birthday.
Speaker 1:The only thing that is consistent, that we've been doing this, that we've started doing this after a year Is that we never start on time.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's always something Somebody's got something.
Speaker 3:Usually it's me, so I'll take it Right For real then.
Speaker 1:Evening boys.
Speaker 3:I actually looked into mine an hour before we started. I was like, let me make sure, because I don't have my work laptop, let me make sure I get this going. Started at 8.8, and it was like I'm good to go, but 8.20. Yes, and then, mr man over here, I gotta update my computer.
Speaker 2:For real, though, I can't even see the number anymore, as I blocked it.
Speaker 1:Fuck that number.
Speaker 3:It'll be ready by the minute.
Speaker 1:I'll make sure my laptop's charged. I'm gonna send out a. I'm gonna send out a notification on Saturday. Check your fucking computers, bitches.
Speaker 3:Right man.
Speaker 2:We launched about a year ago now. Welcome to season two. Woo Wait, is this the season finale?
Speaker 1:Yeah, so we launched about a year ago now. Welcome to season two. Woo Wait, is this the season finale?
Speaker 2:I don't know. It's the finale. We'll see season two next week.
Speaker 3:Welcome to season two Next week, next week, woo.
Speaker 1:No, we need to make these mugs wait like three years and then have an announcement come out and be like we're not inventable sir, we're coming out in six months and you're like wait, what that show's still on. Then we've got to have a teaser trailer to go with it, and then we only do four episodes and then we just go back on hiatus again.
Speaker 2:No, we'll all just have things like this.
Speaker 3:And we'll just dub with the same video over and over.
Speaker 2:That's pretty funny, we fixed that in post man. But yeah, so about a year ago I took these suckers into doing a podcast with me.
Speaker 1:You were talking about it, right.
Speaker 2:Sorry, go ahead. What? Oh yeah, what was it like December or something? I started talking about it.
Speaker 1:Like seriously. Yeah, you had mentioned it a bunch before.
Speaker 2:And then by February I think that was when my schedule was changing I'm like, let me get on my new schedule and we'll figure it out then. But yeah, I have enjoyed it Again. Like I've told you guys this before, thank you for doing it with me. It entertains me, love.
Speaker 3:I will admit it definitely started off as all right, we'll see what this is about, and it's like it's not going to kill me. I would sit around and chat with y'all motherfuckers anyway. So what difference is it that it's being filmed, right? And then probably it wasn't early on, but it finally started to be like you know what? I'm actually enjoying it. It went from I'll tolerate it, I'll do it. I would have done it anyway. So now I like it. Even like I told you guys last month when I missed that episode and I got to go back and watch it, I enjoyed the hell out of it. Oh yeah, I'm definitely.
Speaker 2:What about you, sorry?
Speaker 1:You still liking it? Yeah, no again. Yeah, it's so fun. You know me, the quiet one, the one that never has anything to say about anything. No, I mean again, I I think I'm kind of in the same boat with lou. Like when we first started this, it was kind of like okay, well, jackal gets tired of doing this in like a month, or this is just him. You know we're we're doing this because you wanted to do this. Right, like not that, not that we were opposed to doing it, but it's not. I don't think it's anything either of us would have ever initiated. Yeah, but when you're like, okay, I spent x money on this and we gotta, I got this subscription and it was like, oh, okay, like he's actually fucking getting real about it now, guys, I spent 40 hours watching podcasting stuff, so I know what to do now and I'm like, okay, and then what happens?
Speaker 1:AI, I'm just AI in everything, so you didn't actually need to watch anything.
Speaker 3:All that.
Speaker 1:But no, I mean the same. It's like you know. Then, once we started getting into the groove and figuring things out, and I mean like the only thing I would change is potentially not softball or baseball Wow, holy shit, words are hard. Yeah, if it's not football season, moving it to like every other week, because, but I mean, we've also been able to keep that up. So I have changed my opinion on that, because for a while I was like we should do every other week because we're running out of shit to talk about. But we've been able to keep it up and we've had, like we talked about last week, we've had episodes with just the two of you guys, the two of us. There'll be an episode at some point with probably just Lou and myself and we'll see what happens. But you know that's fair.
Speaker 3:That's fair. We'd have to figure some shit out and learn how to do what Jack's doing. I'll just wait a week until Jack's back.
Speaker 1:Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3:Jack, can you?
Speaker 1:AI this week, it's fine.
Speaker 3:Can you AI out for us, write down your notes and save them for next week. That's all.
Speaker 1:Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2:I did. I actually went back and listened to a couple of episodes. I listened to our first episode. My microphone sounded horrible, Like it was underwater or some shit.
Speaker 1:But you have a new mic You've gotten since then.
Speaker 2:No, it's the same mic. It just works better. I figured it out proper. Now I'm using my phone's mic, so let's see how this sounds when I edit it.
Speaker 3:You know what, though, but not crazy worse. It does sound worse, but it's not like oh my God, his mic sounds bad. It's like you can just tell it doesn't sound as good as the other one, but it's not bad. The camera, that is definitely better, that is 100% Fine, I'll order a ring light.
Speaker 2:Oh, we were just talking about that earlier.
Speaker 1:He just spent 45 minutes getting Lou all dialed in on what he's going to order Next week for season two the opening Lou's going to have a whole little studio going on with studio lights and new headphones.
Speaker 3:Not even kidding. I was like I need to get some Bluetooth headphones over the ear anyway, just for work and for the trip. I was like, well, hell. And then I was like, well, jack's still not here, let's look into this. So ring light got that set up. I know which one to get on that so.
Speaker 3:So in the meantime, in the meantime, duke walked me through and had a he sent me a link for because I have both monitors up now. So one of them he sent me a link for just a white screen so I have a lighting over here, and the other one he's like dude, shrink down our podcast, put another browser up with the white on the background there, so it's like embedded. Yeah, you got like the faux he has like a faux ring light. I do, I had to go now. It's like I got over.
Speaker 1:Look how sexy he looks. Look how sexy he looks. Lou's going to make that his Tinder profile picture now. And Grindr.
Speaker 3:Do it.
Speaker 1:I think you get 50% off, so you're fine.
Speaker 3:They're going to move me up to the top of the list. If they need to take 50% off, I'll fit in these dudes as soon as I do that. Duke takes a suck from his straw. Look at that.
Speaker 1:Oh, it's blue as soon as I do that, duke takes a suck from his straw.
Speaker 3:Look, at that, hang on, hang on. Oh it's blue. Oh, there we go. Tasty Quench, that thirst. But, Lou, if you only lasted this long, you would not be good on Grindr. I'm just saying, okay, there is that. I suppose it's like yeah.
Speaker 2:Bottom, it's fine.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 3:No, there we go, and I'm sure Louis has a line to sigh Alice, so it's fine. I don't know what that is.
Speaker 2:What do you mean? What's that Hemscom box behind?
Speaker 3:you Lou. Let me get that bottle out of the screen.
Speaker 2:Let me make sure we're good Making himself sexier. We can now see everything behind him.
Speaker 3:Yeah, exactly, it's all very clear what he purchases from mostly. Yeah, I see On my side, I see my jacket and I see a couple Amazon boxes. That's all I see from what I see, you just wait until the YouTube video comes out and people will be seeing all that shit on either side.
Speaker 2:Yeah, for real. One girl's on the back butt naked, checking getting something out of her Dude one of these days.
Speaker 3:That shit's going to happen, it's just going to happen.
Speaker 2:And she's the only one that watches it on YouTube, so she'll be the only one that knows. But then suddenly we have like 10,000 videos on that one video Exactly, but it's demonetized.
Speaker 1:But it's demonetized so we don't get any money. I'm like fuck.
Speaker 3:We'll have to have an actual sponsor. I guess HIMS would be the sponsor for that.
Speaker 1:There you go. We're old HIMS and Manscaped, because Manscaped will sponsor anybody.
Speaker 3:Yeah, they will, they really will. They have no political affiliation. They have no any kind of Everybody needs to shave their balls. No, shame, everyone Dude.
Speaker 1:But it's we got you. They're not sponsoring us, so it's fine, I can say this, but I watched them like review videos where, like it's one of those where they like buy every thing that they see sponsored and test it out and they're like, yeah, it's butt cheeks, like they're man, the man, man mower or whatever the fuck they call it. Yeah, yeah, they said it sucks 2.0.
Speaker 3:It's like magic spoon.
Speaker 1:They said magic spoon sucks Like it's, it's fucking cardboard.
Speaker 2:I'd like that's funny because all this came up in our first episode was talking about magic spoon and manscaped and being sponsored.
Speaker 1:Hey, full circle guys.
Speaker 3:We've come back around.
Speaker 1:We were talking about possible sponsors, and it's been a year and none of them have reached out.
Speaker 2:Those assholes, man, I swear they're losing out. That's their lot.
Speaker 3:Dude, I'm a whore, I'll sponsor whomever. Just give us that dough, man, we'll put you out there.
Speaker 1:I'll try whatever your product is, except for milk, I ain't trying your milk product, the milk council's like we'll sponsor you lose like dad, fuck you, no, no we're good, it's like magic spoon.

Speaker 3:It's not very good.
Speaker 1:Jack and I sitting here drinking glasses of milk while Lou's eating dry eating fucking magic spoon.
Speaker 3:You're going to think I'm an 18 month old just chilling in a high chair or whatever, just picking that magic spoon out, because that's the only way to get eaten.
Speaker 1:You're looking like somebody who ate a whole spoonful of a cinnamon. Just Right, wait, how are you doing that look?
Speaker 2:I know it's going to be clipped this week.
Speaker 3:Was that a jack-in-the-box cup? No, it's his.

Speaker 3:I'm going to say fill in the blank, but we know what he wanted filled with Speaking of. So what did you do? First of all, how are y'all hungry for dinner? Like seriously, you go to Brazilian man. You can't be hungry for dinner oh, the big one.
Speaker 2:She just ate a 36 crepe. I'm like the fuck, am I spending this kind of money? Are you gonna eat two crepes?
Speaker 3:they were good crepes, but uh-huh, so she was hungry obviously yeah, that'll do it, but I'm just like when I usually go to, I was like I don't know, I can't remember. I went some oh I know what it was last week when I went to the Korean barbecue place and it's a two hour limit and I was there at 245, five o'clock, you're walking out there with no belt on for real dude.
Speaker 3:I was like you know what I tried to eat dinner? It was like, man, I had like a couple of bites of fries like a tater tot, you know shit like that. I was like, ah, I'm good, went to Bad Daddy's for dinner and it was like no, no, no.
Speaker 1:You're like this is a waste of a trip.
Speaker 3:What am I doing here happened, but yeah, usually when I get those buffets like that, I am trying, not, I'm only as fool as I can.
Speaker 2:I like Girl Scout cookie selling Burned. All them calories.
Speaker 3:How long were you out?
Speaker 2:for Like two hours. I think for two hours maybe. But then last night after brunch we went to the old house and made the girls actually participate in cleaning up all their shit, before I go over there with a garbage bag and just put it all on the curb.
Speaker 3:Hell yeah.
Speaker 1:What do you guys?
Speaker 2:want to keep oh. I don't know. We burned calories. It's gone Yep, pretty much.
Speaker 1:Nice.
Speaker 2:I was actually proud of them. They were like no, I don't need that. I'm like look, we've been living in this house for a minute. If you ain't missed it, you ain't going to believe it.
Speaker 3:Exactly that's what I was saying. I was like wait they've been.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you've been gone six months Right.
Speaker 1:And then they're like but dad, you have all those boxes in the garage, Don't look at that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but I moved my shit to the house, didn't I? So obviously I was missing it.
Speaker 3:Yep.
Speaker 2:Exactly. Probably have, I don't know exactly. Probably have maybe three trips, and that's because of the bookshelf that I need to bring over, but then all my shit's going to be over here, so I don't care so you got insurance, you're good yep, my shit's safe then, it's time to put it on the market.
Speaker 3:I was going to say is there a time frame for posting it on the?
Speaker 2:market. I'm just saying ASAP, go ahead. I think everybody else is motivated. Nobody else wants to do it.
Speaker 3:I mean, I guess y'all just like two mortgages. You know that's the money that could go to other stuff, but instead it's going to sit there and stay with the house.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it could fill that fucking hole in the backyard. How about that?
Speaker 3:Hey, if you don't take care of y'all's stuff, we can't have a pool because we can't pay for it, because we have to sell the house, and then Daddy will never be able to poop in the casita. I was like why is there a porta potty out here? What the hell.
Speaker 1:Why is there a willy make it? Oh my goodness.
Speaker 2:That's so wild. I have this too in a couple more episodes the Vagina Dentile. That was our first episode. We got a bunch of hits on YouTube because we assumed all the little honey kids were like ooh vagina, oh sausage fest.
Speaker 3:Oh my god, that's what we need. We need to add a chick to the mix. Get those 12-year-old to 14-year-old demographics up.
Speaker 2:It's like a low-cut TikTok or some shit. We're just over here bullshitting. She's just like hey, you guys are so funny.
Speaker 1:She'll keep us on point there you go.
Speaker 2:She needs me in a hot tub.
Speaker 3:They canceled that, remember. You can do that.

Speaker 3:That was Twitch. You're right, do it on live. We're going to wrestle. Do some naked painting, because it's artistic.
Speaker 2:That's allowed, not exploitative at all.
Speaker 3:Let's see overview, and I'm a black trans lesbian, so so we're going to be covered there. They're not going to want to upset us. We're a protected class. That's where.
Speaker 2:I am. I watched Alice in Two and Optimus Prime watches fall out in blackface. That was a good one.
Speaker 3:Is that the one where the computer died on us?
Speaker 2:Yes, at the very end and, like Duke, disappeared for like the last 10, 15 minutes.
Speaker 1:Because I just clicked on the wrong button and then was like wait, shit.
Speaker 2:It's probably the best part of that episode Lou brought a black face and then was like oh, that was so funny, dang Jack, talking about black face and black history month.
Speaker 3:Have some respect, man, what the hell.
Speaker 2:Speaking of the history, sir Okay, bringing to light the racism and the turmoil that our black brothers and sisters have been put through A hundred years ago, shh Semantics.
Speaker 3:It happened. I want my reparations for nothing that ever happened to me.
Speaker 2:We need to learn from history so as not to repeat the mistakes Way past. That. For real, for real, but we have a total of 343 total downloads.
Speaker 1:That's almost one a day. Yeah, damn yeah. Our highest top episode is our opening episode with 35 uh, vagina dentata, number two. And then uh, fleshlight brunch with jar jar binks is number three, tied with optimus prime watches, fallout and blackface. And then it goes from down from there. For some reason, we have 59 of our people listen to us through a web browser weird, but okay, yeah, a little bit yeah the last seven days we've had 13 downloads. 30 days, 47 downloads. Last 90 days, 103.

Our lowest point was 6 downloads and that was let's see, raiders rivalry, playoff predicaments and draft day. Okay, we're not talking about football anymore, because nobody gives a shit if we talk about football since that episode. That was six. We got six downloads on that, but since then we've gotten between nine and ten for the last two, four, six episodes.

We do have six listens from the Ukraine. What's up, ukraine, yo?
Speaker 3:You owe us $100 billion, but we love you.
Speaker 2:Civil war and shit you know what that is.
Speaker 1:It's not actually from the Ukraine, it's from the North Korean soldiers, who the Russians brought over are now watching all the porn and listening to all the podcasts. Those guys just happened to come across our podcast.

Speaker 1:They're just like hey, so somebody listens to us on their Apple computer through the web browser, which I think is kind of amusing Because the Apple computer is the most dominant viewing platform as far as devices go.
Speaker 2:So you go to iTunes on your PC and you listen to us.
Speaker 1:Yeah, our top app is the web browser, our top uh device is the apple computer and top category is computer. We're about you know, 55, 45 for computer I hope that comes out on the.

Speaker 2:That's right. There's an Olsen on this Coming for that number one spot.
Speaker 1:Yeah, as far as awards go through the Buzzsprout stuff, we have achievements Okay.
Speaker 2:I'm like what.
Speaker 1:We are at 250 podcast episodes, so we have earned six achievements in that regard, and then episodes published. We are at 49. Publish one more episode to receive your next achievement. So monetization is a zero.
Speaker 3:That's not our fault, I blame you. Big business Helped a little guy.
Speaker 1:Where's my small business loan?
Speaker 3:Exactly Where's COVID.
Speaker 2:Can we get a COVID loan?
Speaker 1:Get that COVID free loan For three million dollars we have some baller ass fucking computers. Ain't nobody checking that Wait, sir, you paid for your house.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's a studio.
Speaker 3:This ain't Black Lives Matter. We ain't buying three mansions instead, uh-uh.
Speaker 1:Those criminals, just one, just one for Jack.
Speaker 2:Just one. We need a studio, that's true.
Speaker 3:Write that off your taxes.
Speaker 2:You gotta write that off your taxes. Also, when we get out of check we'll have a hot tub out there. We can do it from out there. That way, nobody's with her to sexually harass her. They're right covering us, I mean, while she's uncovered.
Speaker 1:I mean, all of a sudden, lou is fucking business expensing a flight to Vegas every Sunday.
Speaker 2:I'm an impopos bitch in the hot tub.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we gotta break that in somehow.
Speaker 3:And tonight we're gonna braid Lou's chest hair in the hot tub.
Speaker 1:By using the skimmer. Ow ow, it hurts, it hurts. So yeah, so yeah it's. You know again, I'm in.
Speaker 2:Like I'm. I mean we don't it's like our main source of income, or I never thought we would make money off of this. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Like at all. That wasn't the goal.
Speaker 2:I don't think yeah, for sure not. Would it be cool? Yeah, like some, for whatever reason, we blew up and we can make money off of it cool.
Speaker 1:but yeah, I mean, but again I think, if we're, if we're paying for the, if we're, if we're making enough money, that we're just covering the expenses I mean the rest of it is whatever.
Speaker 1:Like if we're paying for the subscriptions, the couple subscriptions you got going on, and maybe we can upgrade things a little bit, go to like the pro level or whatever cool. But you know I'm good with this. So yeah, I mean that. You know, again, I'm with going to circle back, I'm with lou, like I was. I was kind of like, okay, I'll let jack play this out until he gets a board or whatever. And yeah, it's been a year and I'm like, yeah, I'm in, let's do it like I actually look forward to it.
Speaker 2:I'm like, oh cool, it's Sunday.
Speaker 1:Well and also I mean it's nice to see you guys' face when we I feel like there's. The conversation is better when we can see each other.
Speaker 2:Instead of just LOL and emojis.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think, sometimes in text.
Speaker 3:Thumbs up.
Speaker 1:Yeah, or it'll just, you know like I won't check my phone for a few hours and I'll go to it and it'll be 10 memes from Jack and three like thumbs up from Lou or whatever, and I'm just like okay well, that's. Yeah, so someday you'll figure out how to put these, someday you'll figure out how to put this stuff in the podcast, so when we're talking about it, you can.
Speaker 2:One of my goals now that I'm going to have a day between, because for season two we will be publishing on tuesday, so I have mondays off, so I'm going to allow me more time to mess with edit better and all that stuff. So I will also check out the media board, because there is one on here. I don't know if I have it for this, but we'll see. We'll see if I'm having sound effects Doink.
Speaker 3:I know it's funny Duke talking about that in a text thread. What always cracks me up is I'm like, oh, I have a message. I go back and look. I'm like Duke laughed at a picture.
Speaker 2:I'm like okay five hours, five hours after jack posted.
Speaker 3:I have to scroll back up to see which picture did he laugh? 25, it's like, as I say, jack's did a couple dozens, so I'm just looking for the thumbs up on on the smiley face like okay, that's the one he did I didn't think it was that funny.
Speaker 1:I don't know why he thought it was so I have to give it a second look.
Speaker 2:Maybe it was funny right? Maybe it was I do.
Speaker 3:I was like, what did I miss?
Speaker 1:so even if we weren't posting this, I would still enjoy the face time with you guys, because I mean, before a year, a year before a year before this, like I mean, we'd see each other what once or twice a year, and now it, you know, and then once a year was that much. I don't know. If you guys do the same thing Every single trip, I'll be on my way home, I'll be on the plane.
Speaker 2:As you can tell by my ear, bubble.
Speaker 1:Jack's thinking so hard he's just blowing bubbles out of his ear. I don't have an option to give you a thumbs up. What?
Speaker 3:eye, is it picking up like?
Speaker 1:or is it?
Speaker 3:hearing us say something like, like, and then you know, then it pops up I like jack like yeah, that didn't do it.
Speaker 1:Like jack, jack like like check off off off, off and just going like oh shit, I wanted to talk to Lou about that, or, oh, I wanted to talk to Jack. You know like kind of like missed opportunities to have those conversations, but now we can because we always get to the point of going. So what do we want to talk about now?
Speaker 2:our feelings, a little bit the gratitude stuff was kind of cool. I mean I'll find some more of that shit for the for next season.
Speaker 3:Some healthy Sounds, so professional for next season.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:We've already been renewed. Not that anybody wanted it or any studio requested it, but we have. We are renewed.
Speaker 2:You like the balls that the athlete doesn't have, we said, fuck you, you're getting a season two. The Acolyte should have done that.
Speaker 3:Maybe you got to get some eyeballs on it. You can't be losing money. We are, but we're also not losing $225 million either. Well, to us it is $225 million.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean, compared to what we make, compared to what Disney makes, it's about the same.
Speaker 3:I mean it's comparable.
Speaker 1:It's comparable man speaking of which did you go watch Captain America I just realized that it is not trending well.
Speaker 3:Yeah, we've all seen it at. Yeah.
Speaker 2:It is not trending. Well, we've all seen it right.
Speaker 3:Yeah, we've all seen it.
Speaker 1:At this point, it's not trending well, the conversation that we had afterwards was, I think all three of us that went and saw it all thought the first two-thirds of the movie was really good. And then the third act, it just didn't seem the flow changed. It started out well and then I think there was like some good stuff and then there, you know, there was so much stuff where you obviously could tell that it was a reshoot or whatever, like the whole kind of final confrontation between sam and the leader, where the leader looks like he's going into terrible.
Speaker 1:He's going into like a porn he's going into like a porno or something they have like vaseline all around his body and he doesn't move at all, like like literally, if you watch it, like his arm moves and that's it, and I'm like what is happening right now yeah that took me so far out of the movie just because they kept cutting back to it.
Speaker 1:they were like, oh, this is happening. And then they cut back to the conversation and I'm like you obviously aren't in the same. And they kind of did the Madam Web thing where they like shot over Sam's shoulder and then Sam talked. So you didn't see him talking, like, but yet you saw like half of his head and you're like, okay, well, they obviously took the back of his head and did voiceover that didn't match anything that he actually recorded on set.
Speaker 3:Until I get it. I have some girls like that. You're going to take the back of their head and Wait. Sorry, we're on topic.
Speaker 2:Wait, where's the phone? Yeah.
Speaker 3:Your phone lost an opportunity there, damn it.
Speaker 1:Try to keep up. So I mean, yeah, but I mean I guess you know I like the Captain America character, I like Sam, I like you know a lot of those characters I liked, but just the movie, just it was an Incredible Hulk sequel that didn't have the Incredible Hulk Basically. Sorry, you guys feel free to jump in, I didn't mean to, no, I mean that's about what I thought, you know.
Speaker 3:I mean that's about what I thought I was fine with it.
Speaker 2:People, I don't know if it deserves the hate that it's getting, but I get that it's not a great movie. It was fine. It was a Marvel movie.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it was like they're going to lose $200 million and that's about it. But you know that's par for the course for Disney Marvel these days. Well, I mean Fantastic Four, four, yeah, for sure, and again blow up with that one.
Speaker 1:But I mean captain america was done three years ago. You know that movie should have been out three years ago, like they've been sitting on it. It changed names that tv show with three years ago no, the move, yeah, yeah the mood, and the movie's been done.
Speaker 3:The movie's been in the can. The movie's been in the can for at least two years yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:And so, like when you have, when you're sitting on something like that for so long and you're, you're, you're complete, like what your moat? Like again, the pandemic happens. Disney completely pivots to streaming a hundred percent and then all of a sudden realizes that streaming ain't where it's at and then all of a sudden then they're shifting back to movies. But then, like, the whole kang thing happens and they have to like pivot and change a bunch of stuff. Like I, I think it's a, I think the captain america movie is a completely different movie if they finish it six months or a year ago versus having it written four years ago and done two years ago. You know, then you're just sitting on it and then you go, oh shit, like now we have to pivot and do all of this doom stuff that we didn't have two years ago, we didn't even have on the on the board at all. You know, like doom, I, I'm gonna bet you three years ago, if you would have asked anybody at marvel, they would have been like dr doom. No, this is a kang.
Speaker 2:Thing right, exactly, so then, we're thinking for Fantastic Four 2.
Speaker 1:Yeah, then when you have to jump and shift all of your resources and everything, I'm guessing there was probably some Kang stuff at the end of Captain America.
Speaker 2:I'm just saying we could have had some balls and just kept going for many days. He didn't do anything about it and he got found guilty on it, so fuck him.
Speaker 3:I heard there's some rumors that they're trying to get him back to at least wrap up a story. I saw that too.
Speaker 1:We'll see. But my point is I bet you there's, I bet you there was some stuff in this movie that referenced Kang or had Kang adjacent stuff happening that they had to go in and cut out and change, because it seemed to me there were a couple. It seemed to me there were a few scenes that you were like wait, how are we jumping from this? I feel like there was something missing.
Speaker 2:Why do we keep talking about Ultima?
Speaker 3:Yeah, see, there you go. I don't know. I don't know if I trust them to be that smart that it was there, because there was no mention, like you said, no. Incredible Hulk in an Incredible Hulk sequel? No, what's the bad guy from Incredible Hulk? The first one, the Abomination? Yeah, no, abomination. They didn't address the Skrull situation at all, it's like. Are you kidding me?
Speaker 2:Yeah, when is this taking place? This?
Speaker 3:is two years.
Speaker 2:Compared to everything else.
Speaker 3:This is two years after Falcon and Winter Soldier. It's the election 2026.
Speaker 2:They're offset from the real world, Right but where does that fit in with all the Skrull stuff? You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 3:The Skrull stuff happened before this, the Skrull stuff because they had a calendar up in Secret Invasion. So the Skrull stuff happened before this and we're not going to address it at all.
Speaker 2:Like get out. Well, how long did it take them to address the fucking giant coming out of the ocean?
Speaker 3:She hulked it Well, she hulked also address the abomination.
Speaker 2:Lou, you lost that argument. No, she hulked at that one.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I was going to say she hulked, at least covered that. But this movie how do you not cover this stuff? And all of a sudden, bucky's running for office. Where'd that come from? That's just.
Speaker 1:Again, when you have the movie sitting on its skids for two years and a lot changes in the background, like Is that going to be addressed in Thunderbolts?
Speaker 3:maybe it is, I think they're.
Speaker 2:He's sitting in a hearing with With Julia.
Speaker 1:Louis-Dreyfus Taylor Littergraf.
Speaker 3:Yeah, but is it after or before Thunderbolts? I think is after.
Speaker 2:Because I think that he's probably a sinner by then.
Speaker 1:Well, I mean, I think the Thunderbolts is going to move forward with the Thunderbolts Number one, I think, was made more recently, like it just completed filming, like six months, eight months ago, like it's been. We've been seeing trailers for a long time but and is and is that name going to change?
Speaker 3:Because Thunderbolt Ross is kind of you know what I mean. It's like maybe that's why there's an asterisk.
Speaker 1:That is why there is an asterisk. It's like what?
Speaker 3:the hell, how are you going to have a damn Thunderbolt? You're not going to have Thunderbolt Ross. I was like Marvel, they could.
Speaker 2:They could break him out of the raft.
Speaker 3:That'd be kind of cool actually Him and Zemo.
Speaker 1:I like how they're and I feel like there's going to be something in the movie about this. But I love the fact that, like 90% of the trailer, taskmaster isn't in it, and so everyone's like, oh, she dies, she dead. And it's like, wait, no, I bet they're just fucking with you. They've edited her out of all of the scenes. They've edited her out. So then when they do the scene, you're going to watch the movie and you're going to be like, oh, there she is.
Speaker 3:She's only in that opening. She gets killed in that opening fight and we don't see her ever again.
Speaker 1:She'll be replaced with somebody else. Red Hulk Real quick though, the Red Hulk. I feel like the Red Hulk effects were really good.
Speaker 2:He looked good.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I thought you know for the most part he looked spot on.
Speaker 2:Now was he hot Because the bullets were melting, not hitting him right, correct?
Speaker 3:yeah, because you could tell once the clothes started burning off of him, you could see that happening. Yeah, the fact that they were afraid on the edge, you could see the burn marks and everything. Yeah, because you know he's supposed to be radioactive. Yeah, in the comics he's. I think they kept with that, which would make sense.
Speaker 2:I like the Bucky scene, though. I like when Bucky showed up when he was watching Falcon the recovery surgery. And as soon as he said this is a private room, I'm like yes, I don't know.
Speaker 3:I mean it's good, it's not out of place, I mean it's like he needed to be in it, but it's like okay.
Speaker 1:I, yeah, I got shit to do. Hopefully your friend lives bye okay bye, I mean it was good that they I mean I, I didn't, I I'm with lou. I'm glad that they had a scene with them together because I feel like they needed to considering all the stuff from the tv show, yeah that they they should have had something to at least address their where their relationship was. Yeah, it was an awkward, yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and why does he have his arm still? That shit should have been gone in the Christmas special.
Speaker 2:You see, that shit that happened the last two years. You don't know.
Speaker 3:They better explain that in Thunderbolts.
Speaker 2:Right, he's opening Gambit. He wakes up and his fucking arm's gone, and then it's a 30 second 30 second cutting. Bucky wakes up and his fucking arm's gone, then it's a 30 second cutting of him getting his arm back.
Speaker 3:I would be all over that. That would be so good.
Speaker 2:James Gunn knew all this shit was already filmed and done. He knew his Christmas special was coming out. He's like not fucking them out. If someone steals Bucky's arm they're going to be totally fucked. Everybody's going to want to know Now, granted with his relationship with the, so I'm going to steal Bucky's arm.
Speaker 3:They're going to be totally fucked. Everybody's going to want to know how did he get in that arm? Yeah, now, granted, with his relationship with the Condons, they just make him one. Yeah, because didn't they give him a new?
Speaker 1:one at the end of Endgame. They need to say that that wasn't his original arm. They gave him at the end of Endgame, right.
Speaker 2:No, he got a new one yeah.
Speaker 1:So they already got it. They already got a 3d scan of it.
Speaker 2:The arm he took, that rocket took, was the same arm that he has now.
Speaker 3:Right, there's the problem, so so whatever.
Speaker 1:We'll know in two months, right Cause, yeah, I was going to say it'll, it'll, it'll be fun.
Speaker 3:I'm looking forward to that one, I to that one. I'm looking forward to Fantastic Four. I'm looking forward to Galactus destroying that world and then that triggering some stuff, because it's like, oh, we can't have this happy ending. I don't think we're going to. I think Galactus is going to tear that planet up and I am Exactly, I'm all for it, I'm all for it, yay fun.
Speaker 1:One of the other conversations we had after the movie, with the mess that marvel's in right now with all of the movies and tv shows kind of not, is in two years are we looking at dc the same way that we looked at marvel five years ago? Right, like, because dc seems to james gunn seems to have a good handle at least on what he wants to do. Right, whether you agree, whether you put the direction he goes with stuff. But I'm just talking about the quality of the movies and the quality of the product. Seems like him and his partner have a good handle on what their the goal is. Right. Superman looks like it's going to be amazing. We already know his past with suicide squad peacemaker and stuff like that. He doesn't have a problem making a character corny. He does a very good job of balancing the humor versus the violence.
Speaker 1:I'm waiting for it, don't put it lower, lower, lower, lower, lower, lower. That's not a thumb people.
Speaker 3:That's not a thumb, don't worry, though he's a grower, not a shower.
Speaker 1:His penis has a.
Speaker 2:has a fingernail on it, though, so I mean don't know how we're going to explain that one, but it's a callus, sir.
Speaker 3:So what do you guys think? Yeah, a callus on his penis, and there's the title of this episode.
Speaker 2:No lube, no lube I don't know. Marvel will be minorly shunned, but they're not going to go Batman versus Superman Justice League, I think.
Speaker 3:Marvel will be fine Now that this one is out of the way. Thunderbolts get out of the way once Fantastic Four starts, they'll be fine.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like I said, this movie didn't move anything forward. We're getting super close to an Avengers movie. We need to. What are we culminating with? Nothing these last. I don't even know how their fucking faces work. Nothing has happened. We don't even know where Shang-Chi's fucking bracelets are from, and that was like 10 years ago.
Speaker 3:Right, there was that post, that post scene in Shang-Chi.
Speaker 2:At the end, with that pulsing energy, they just it was like alright, they didn't know what it was, so is it from a different dimension. I didn't know what it was, so is it from a different dimension, which I guess they could do.
Speaker 3:Now, a different universe let's lean into that You'd almost have to at this point. They're struggling in that part, but again it's almost like they need to just wipe out, like even Secret Invasion. Look, you're not going to address the Skrull, Just come out and say we fucked up.
Speaker 1:We're not going to touch that. That's our bad. I think that's what Battleworld's going to do. I saw something online they were talking about they're already looking at recasting. They're going to for the next two Avengers movies they're going to bring everybody back.
Speaker 1:Basically everybody who's been in a Marvel superhero movie has a likelihood of having at least a cameo in, uh, doomsday or battle world I know I'm saying the names wrong but the next two avengers movies I think doomsday is right, and then they're gonna and then they're going to basically wipe all of that out and then move forward with a brand, with a whole new set of superheroes, right beyond tom holland because he's still young enough and can play peter parker for a little bit longer a lot of a significant. All the x-men, all the avengers, all of them will get boom boof, we'll get in um incursioned, and then it will be the new group for the next 10 years and they'll reset basically everything.
Speaker 2:Will that come to pass? What's that? Loki will reset everything. Well, because Loki's going to be there, he's going to be in the multiverse.
Speaker 1:Yeah, loki's going to be there, we'll see. We have like five years to wait, though.
Speaker 2:We'll be Different people by then. I have a stamp on my passport.
Speaker 1:Multiple stamps, hopefully.
Speaker 3:Multiple Back to Japan.
Speaker 1:I'm already planning for 27. Are they going to go back to Japan at 27?
Speaker 3:I don't know if they're going to go back. I'm just going for a vacation, oh, okay.
Speaker 2:All right, Cheap vacation. Mm-hmm, Watch the ends going to explode. We're just like no, we ain't going to Japan.
Speaker 3:He's like oh, about that. No, I'm good, no, no, it's fine, it's fine.
Speaker 2:I didn't even see the west side of Japan.
Speaker 3:I've been enjoying these YouTube videos of Japan and Japan trips, I'm going to keep watching those.
Speaker 1:It was so good it's fine.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I have my own Japan playlist.
Speaker 3:It's almost like being there Right from there now 7 or 8.
Speaker 1:I did watch a 4K of the new Indiana Jones, or the new version of the Indiana Jones ride, right before the podcast. I was finishing my dinner and I was like let's watch that. He does say different stuff. It's kind of crazy how they have it. Every time you meet Indy he does actually have a couple different lines than he had before and of course the lightning and everything looks different than it did before.
Speaker 3:I found out, speaking of the YouTube and watching my followers, that the World's Fair, you can watch that shit and follow virtually, like they're doing. You don't have to go, no, you can sit there and do helmets or whatever, or just online just watching, almost like like, uh, what is it the we meeples used to bake, just like those characters just around. It's like, oh, that's kind of cool. But, man, I gotta figure that out. Though. Man, am I gonna just bite the bullet I know, pun intended and bullet train down to osaka for a day and check it out? I don't know. Okinawa, don't know. I'll have it all figured out within three weeks. That I do know. But man, there's options there.
Speaker 1:It is, jack liked that one Exactly.
Speaker 2:So, many.
Speaker 1:Oh, there you go, Okay so many.
Speaker 2:Oh you go okay, so many.
Speaker 3:And just oh, okay, okay, great keyword, now just try so.
Speaker 1:Or many, so many so many and your thumb move your so many does doing it.
Speaker 3:That is the weirdest thing, and it takes both so few give me a thumbs down. I want to do it.
Speaker 2:yeah I. Few Give me a thumbs down. I want to do a thumbs down, yeah I was like give me a thumbs down.
Speaker 3:with so few, that would be so cool.
Speaker 2:The few.
Speaker 1:Joaquin Phoenix. Joaquin Phoenix, the Gladiator man I didn't say anything. He said so many your phone's tripping.
Speaker 3:So many man, that is wild. We are easily entertained by the way.
Speaker 2:You guys have been on this podcast for two hours. We're trying to figure out what makes Jax's emoji bubbles.
Speaker 1:We would have never gotten this through a regular text message. Just think about that?
Speaker 3:No, that would never happen. That would never happen.
Speaker 1:So what else did you guys watch this week? What else did you guys do?
Speaker 2:watched this week.
Speaker 1:What else?
Speaker 3:did, you guys do, didn't you watch anything this week?
Speaker 2:Oh, go ahead. I was reading this article, this dude that got his eyelids cut off so they used his foreskin. I guess like the same material.
Speaker 1:Wait, wait, go back a bit. Why did he get his eyelids cut off?
Speaker 2:I forgot he's a little cocky.
Speaker 1:Oh my god, wow, I can't, I can't, you can't tell those jokes unless we're sitting in the cantina making everybody uncomfortable.
Speaker 3:Don't worry, we'll repeat it then that's not a problem. All of a sudden Duke looks really weird. It's too many people.
Speaker 1:I need my face palm emoji to pop out from mine.
Speaker 3:That would be so cool if it did that. If we did that or did that, oh, that would be so cool if it did that. Where are you, ai? Why aren't you helping us out? I'm close.
Speaker 2:Oh my God. So many options for AI, so many. I don't have the keyword anymore. No, it changed it changes, it randomizes.
Speaker 3:What did I watch? Oh, I know because Jack watched it, so it made me finish it. Spider-man Friendly Neighborhood, season one. I mostly enjoyed it. The only thing I really didn't enjoy was that hippie leftist girlfriend of his who was bitching about big business. Other than that it was great, which is fine. Fine because next season there's characters. So you know what's funny. As much as I got on my nerves, that would have been somebody's circle has that girl in their circle. So it made sense. I was like I definitely rolled my eyes. I was like are you that stupid if you don't understand how business works and how you need big business? And I'm like like, well, yeah, she's a sophomore in high school. Of course she's stupid and doesn't understand. So I was like, okay, that tracks.
Speaker 1:But the show itself, and Lou knows from experience in the last year.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that there are a bunch of stupid leftists out there. Oh my God, you were so right about that.
Speaker 1:I just meant the sophomores.
Speaker 3:Hey, sophomores. In college they're sophomores in college.
Speaker 2:Good Lord, try to get me into jail Right.
Speaker 3:They're about to release the.
Speaker 2:Epstein file.
Speaker 1:Stop that hey minor oh my God, a little bubble comes up with a schoolhouse or a sad Drake face. You'll be an adult.
Speaker 2:No, no, no, he was a college sophomore High school sophomore. The ghost wants to sue us now.
Speaker 1:Oh my god, it's fine. None of us have any money.
Speaker 3:He's like right, oh deal, Does he?
Speaker 2:like my chased Ninja Turtle pop.
Speaker 3:Maybe that was the first one, the, when everybody was crying over right away. The second one didn't get as much buzz. That's right, though today, what did?
Speaker 2:I do all week.
Speaker 3:I don't think I don't think I was gonna say I don't think I really watched anything this week other than except I've been watching so many japanese youtube videos. So so Spider-Man's, I think all I watched.
Speaker 2:I didn't even go back to Yellow.
Speaker 3:Jackets. I was down the rabbit hole, Dude. I was watching four hours straight of Japanese.
Speaker 2:Invincible Harley regular weekly shit.
Speaker 1:Howard through Zero Day. Fuck that. Yeah, it's on Netflix. It's Robert De Niro playing a former president, and then there's a massive cyber attack and he's put in charge of, like, the committee that's supposed to investigate what happened.
Speaker 2:They put a boomer in charge of that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, wow.
Speaker 2:That makes sense.
Speaker 1:But he's, it's one of those ones where they like set him up as like he's like the last president, that like had unified the people type of thing, him up as like he's like the last president, that like had unified the people type of thing. So they really they pick him because they think that having somebody like him, who has his history, that it will be less people going. Oh, they're not, you know, it's the government, it's not the government, whatever, whatever. So I mean I enjoyed it for the most part. It was a little too real, but you know, I think if they would have came out with it 10 years ago it would have been different. But I can entirely see, especially with the way things are today, like I can entirely see that happening.
Speaker 3:Yeah, they picked him. He's probably somebody that uses like wired headphones.
Speaker 1:He doesn't actually do that much technology in the show, so he's just the lead. He's not Thor in Black Hat where he's sitting there at 10 o'clock at midnight, 2 am, fucking mainlining Surge and Doritos.
Speaker 2:I'm going to call myself Big Balls on the internet.
Speaker 1:Shit, that name's already taken Two episodes of him typing in different names to try to figure out which one.
Speaker 3:Big Ball 60.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Who is this ginormous testicles guy? It's like that's the best he could come up with.
Speaker 1:Everything else was taken, sir it would be so horrible for your username. Sir, can you log in? I need a minute. Gigantic testicles, shit. Hang on, hang on, there's a dash X.
Speaker 2:Big, X little.
Speaker 1:X Gigantic testicles 69. Little X, big X, and what's your password? The same.
Speaker 2:No, it's actually the same, Although he is a three.
Speaker 3:Not enough characters. Needs to be 12 characters or more.
Speaker 1:And then Reacher came back. Season 3 of Reacher Today wasn't it Friday, tuesday, oh, is that long ago? Yeah, and then Season 3 of White Lotus started last week.
Speaker 3:I'm waiting for both of those to finish. Yeah, that's binge-worthy, that's airplane-worthy.
Speaker 1:But White Lotus has Walton Goggins and Carrie Coon in it this season, so very excited because I love both of them. Goggins for sure. Carrie Coon, she was in the Leftovers, the Gilded Age. I know she's a good actress. That sounds like artsy TV shows. You never watch the Leftovers. The Leftovers is like one of my favorite shows of all time and it's done.
Speaker 2:You should have told us that.
Speaker 1:Well, we never did a top five TV shows. We should do that at some point. Top five TV shows, top five movies, top five songs.
Speaker 2:Next season.
Speaker 3:There's your clip folks.
Speaker 1:There's your hook, there's your hook. At some point next season.
Speaker 2:So many, yeah, there's your hook At some point next season. So many, nope.
Speaker 1:Fish, you gotta fish, you gotta fish for so many topics.
Speaker 2:One million topics.
Speaker 3:Oh Duke, you got a Tuesday movie for this week.
Speaker 1:Because there isn't anything.
Speaker 3:That monkey thing, oh yeah. Tuesday we're going to go see the monkey. I gotta find that gift card. You got a Tuesday movie for this week, Because there isn't anything. That monkey thing, oh yeah.
Speaker 1:Tuesday we're going to go see the monkey. Yep, Sorry.
Speaker 2:I got to find that gift card. Order that popcorn bucket from AMC.
Speaker 3:The monkey one.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:What's it look like?
Speaker 2:The fucking monkey playing the drum bro, oh, is it really?
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's kind of cool.
Speaker 2:And since I got that AMC gift card for Secret Santa at work, I'm ordering it because that makes it free somebody at your Secret Santa at work.
Speaker 3:Thought you went to go watch movies enough to get you an AMC gift card.
Speaker 2:I don't know why they picked AMC, because nobody goes to AMC.
Speaker 3:But whatever, unless you got that deal unless you paid for that deal a long time ago and still have it.
Speaker 1:I had free popcorn on Tuesday when we went and saw Captain America, so I upgraded it Not that deal, unless you paid for that deal a long time ago, and still have it. I had free popcorn on Tuesday when we went and saw Captain America, so I upgraded it from 50 cents to a medium.
Speaker 3:It's a Tuesday thing, like because I'm a Regal member, they give you free Regal.
Speaker 1:Oh damn, it was a free small popcorn, and so I upgraded it to a medium for 50 cents.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, I remember those days. Yeah, when you would, Okay, yeah.
Speaker 2:We're going to go watch Paddington.
Speaker 3:In Peru. No, they're going to watch it in Vegas.
Speaker 2:Dumbass Jesus I told you, jackson would get more stamps. Yeah, jackson would get more stamps.
Speaker 1:How dare you question me?
Speaker 3:He wants those llamas, but yeah.
Speaker 2:I like the last two movies and obviously the little one wants to watch it. Oh yeah, I couldn't go to build ground like we can go watch a man close enough, especially on tuesday when it's half price not work yeah it won't be tomorrow his tuesdays for that, unless it's vacation week, not happening.
Speaker 1:Yeah so yeah, I might pick up the, I might activate, like the regal unlimited for a couple months, just because it gives you the free, free tickets every week, type of thing yeah, but does it really help you?
Speaker 3:because?
Speaker 1:you're getting a free full price ticket well, it's only 10 bucks a month, and so if we go and see three movies, even if we see them on discount night, it's still $8 a ticket. I'm saving $16, $14, something like that. So if it's $10 a month and I'm seeing four movies on Sunday or sorry, tuesday, that's $8 a pop, that's $24. So I'm saving.
Speaker 3:So it's $10 a month to watch whatever you want, unlimited. Holy crap, that's a deal. I misunderstood that. I'm thinking it's the Cinemark way. Ten bucks a month, you get one free one and a bunch of discounts on stuff. Nope, I think I got it.
Speaker 1:I'll double check. Let me double check If.
Speaker 3:Regal was closer. I mean, it's not that far away, it's only 15 minutes to Longmont.
Speaker 1:Let me double check because I don't want to speak out of turn Ten bucks a $10 a month for unlimited.
Speaker 3:If that's true, though, $10 a month for unlimited movies that's a hell of a deal. I don't understand why that's not advertised.
Speaker 1:Endless movies with Regal.
Speaker 3:Unlimited they would. But that's what I'm saying. You would think that word of mouth would be enough to get that across the board.
Speaker 1:Subscription plans. It'd be worth the drive to Longmont to go watch movies for free. Regal Unlimited Sorry, $21.49 a month. That's unlimited movies. 10% concession discount. Unlimited movies, unlimited early access screening Total cost of $257.88 a year.
Speaker 3:Oh, that doesn't work out for you, then If it's $22 a month and you get $5 movies For some, reason I had $10 in my head.
Speaker 1:Maybe that was MoviePass.
Speaker 3:That might have been movie pass amcs, was it amc amc? Well, no, just movie pass they, movie passes back. Oh, that wasn't limited to a specific company.
Speaker 1:I thought that was a movie pass, isn't but the downside. So now, how so movie pass? Before you used to pay 20 bucks a month but you and you could go to as many movies as you wanted. Then that model crashed and burned. They actually have a documentary on it, I think on Netflix. It's pretty good. They reinvented themselves, but now they give you credits every month. But the crappy part about the credits is there's no discount. So if I went on Tuesday, the credits would be the full amount of credits and you only get like 60 credits a month or whatever. So depending on what movie, what time of day, that opening weekend, what correct?
Speaker 1:And so they're taking that amount of credits out of your account every time, so it doesn't make it at that point you have to not use your account for that movie.
Speaker 3:That's correct, yeah, which?
Speaker 1:then defeats the purpose of having a movie pass an account yeah.
Speaker 3:Well, only for the cheap days.
Speaker 1:You know what Was it? Fandango, hang on. Maybe it was. Fandango had the I think Fandango has their own thing now too. That's weird.
Speaker 3:They're more of a broker. They don't have their own theaters, do they?
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 3:Yeah yeah, that's weird. And too, they have some high-ass expenses Fees too Fandango. I looked at one point and was like I'm so glad to do everything through Cinemark. Sponsor Cinemark.
Speaker 1:We're here.
Speaker 2:We're waiting.
Speaker 1:We love you, Cinemark we love you.
Speaker 3:Remember, sucker Both of us or wherever he is on the screen.

Speaker 3:No, how's our time looking?
Speaker 2:I can't see it on my face. Okay, not too bad.
Speaker 3:As I know, like I said, I was just fading a little bit.
Speaker 1:But I'm still good it is later.
Speaker 3:Did you, did you either one of you, get any of the Roosevelt shirts that dropped?
Speaker 2:The Cessna.
Speaker 3:I did.
Speaker 2:I mean I will keep an eye on Blues Brothers. I kind of dig that one. I want to hope it'll stick around for end of year clearance. We'll see.
Speaker 3:It might. I mean, you have to be our age to even really appreciate the Blues Brothers. Yeah, exactly, dick in a Box. That one's you know the Gen Zers from Millennials jumped all over that one too.
Speaker 1:Did any of them sell through?
Speaker 2:I'm meant to go back in the wrong way and look.
Speaker 3:Not sure. Didn't something else drop the week before Fant, before Fantasia?
Speaker 1:Dragon Ball Z oh, that ugly ass. Oh yeah, that did not look good the week before. That was the Fantasia one, right?
Speaker 2:That Fantasia one was the one that was pretty good. Yeah Well, that black one was limited edition, it was foil. I was like dang. If I knew that I would have bought it.
Speaker 3:I think I might have too, if I knew all that. I was like, yeah, whatever, and then it was like oh wait, let me look at this thing actually.
Speaker 1:As you're looking at it, you see it goes sold out, oh shit.
Speaker 3:Exactly Now it's starting to fade again. I was like if we can make it that long shit.
Speaker 2:I wouldn't have to program too long.
Speaker 3:Yes.
Speaker 2:So I'm happy that you guys stuck around with us. For me, like I said, I do look forward to it every week, even though my wife doesn't pay attention. Right, how about?
Speaker 3:casting tonight On a Sunday, like hello, but it's funny, you say that Because back before we switched, when I brought up the Captain America topic, I meant to bring this up first. The only thing that I think we need to work on just for my sake is consistency with timing. It's like, oh, it's 8 tonight, it's 9 tonight. It's 8.30 tonight. It's 7.30 tonight. Oh, I'm free at 4. It's like, oh, we need some consistency.
Speaker 2:It goes against the whole title. It kind of does though. Yeah, as I was saying, it was like it was easy when it was okay, football's over, let's jump on Right. But once that's done, now do you test softball.
Speaker 3:Even before then, though, Even before then, it was nice. Remember, before football, it was like schedules, work and everything, and then that, Whoa, we lost Jack. There goes Jack's camera and Jack is back.
Speaker 2:That's because my phone's like yeah, 20%, Would you like to switch on low battery mode? And then it's like no video for you. How do you not have that thing on a wireless charger? What is wrong with you? You saw, before we started I was looking for all my shit. I don't have nothing. I do have a Mandalorian wireless charger somewhere that's kind of cool.
Speaker 3:It's in a box somewhere. Yes, with his dick.
Speaker 2:Step one how do I hold it? How do I hold the box? But yeah, I was going to say that's the thing it's when the problem is.
Speaker 3:it doesn't always work that way, because that's just life. Duke, are you back to softball full time?
Speaker 1:Beginning of April, sunday Okay, so we will have to see how that goes. I'll let you guys know Maybe we start doing it in the morning on Sunday if I'm going to have a late game, because it seems like either I have a 10 o'clock game or I have a 4 o'clock game, so a 4 o'clock game is going to be hard because we usually go out afterwards for drinks.
Speaker 2:So if we get in the morning.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I was gonna say Sunday, sunday mornings, like mostly fine with me, uh, and I say mostly because like every other Sunday I'm at Sam's Club. Uh, you know rope dropping right.

Speaker 3:We plan for after Lou's Sam's Club. Yeah, I'm usually only there half an hour so I can be back by 11 o'clock my time or before then too. But I'm going to tell you right now if we're running late and we get to 930 my time, I'm out. I'm going to make sure I get to Sam's Club because he saw it I got some pork chops.
Speaker 2:I just went to finish the rest of the stuff, yeah. No Lou switches to his phone. Yeah, he's in his car.

Speaker 1:But I'm just saying like right, but I'm just saying if you took your pants off, it didn't have to poop. It'd be fine if your pants were off. But if you're afraid that you might poop because you've taken your pants off, then, yes, you would need to wear pants and then you get closer to the toilet.
Speaker 2:You have to poop more if your pants are off and the toilet's right there, even though you know you can't use it.
Speaker 3:I hate that shit man literally like I had to pee like kind of badly, like exactly, literally. I had to pee really badly, but not that badly, until I walked in the front door and all of a sudden I was busting. Man, I'm barely gonna make it shit, would you pull into the park?
