• 0:04
  All right, what's up Y'all? And welcome back to Dad Needs to
• 0:07
  Talk. I'm your host, Robert.
• 0:08
  And today today, I am joined by my homies Rob J and Scuba Steve.
• 0:16
  What is up Y'all? What's going on?
• 0:18
  What's going on? It's all I always love coming on
• 0:21
  here because you know, Rob and Rob, it's just, it just works,
• 0:25
  bro. It just works.
• 0:28
  The two Rob. The two ROB crew.
• 0:31
  Exactly, exactly. And so today we are here for a
• 0:35
  very, very fun discussion about a show called The Bear.
• 0:42
  Now the Bear is ATV show. It is streaming on Hulu.
• 0:48
  It is 18 episodes total. It was 8 episodes, season one,
• 0:53
  10 episodes, season 2 and the episodes vary roughly between
• 0:56
  like 40 minutes to an hour roughly with them and stuff.
• 1:02
  So and so I think yeah it's it's a super new show because season
• 1:06
  one was last year 2022 and then season 2 just aired in the last
• 1:11
  couple of weeks and so just double check out.
• 1:13
  Think all three of us just watched this for the series for
• 1:18
  the first time this last couple weeks, right?
• 1:20
  Yes, Sir. Yes Sir.
• 1:21
  OK, OK yeah. Because because I saw one of one
• 1:26
  of my mutuals on Twitter had posted a battle whatever and she
• 1:31
  was all hyper battle whatever. And me and her, you know we we
• 1:35
  all have you know those people who follow including each other
• 1:38
  towards like hold on OK if if, if that person is talking about
• 1:41
  this show or whatever we have similar taste.
• 1:45
  Let me go take a look and see what's going on over there.
• 1:47
  And so especially when it's something like this to where
• 1:52
  it's like there's a lot of hype behind it from people that I
• 1:56
  know, but I've never even heard of this show beforehand.
• 2:01
  And so I I guess, I guess up top I kind of give a little bit of a
• 2:07
  general setup and stuff for the show.
• 2:09
  And and I guess I'm going to say this as well for listeners and
• 2:11
  watchers as as usual here on Dennis's talk, we start off the,
• 2:16
  we start off the conversation with spoiler free, you know,
• 2:19
  just just general thoughts. And then we always let y'all, I
• 2:22
  always let y'all know when we're going to dive into spoilers and
• 2:25
  stuff. That way if you haven't watched
• 2:27
  it or whatever, you can pause and come back later because when
• 2:31
  we dive into spoilers, we're going to dive into spoilers.
• 2:35
  But, but as far as the show itself, so the basic set up for
• 2:42
  the show, without going into Tutu spoiler whatever, is that
• 2:46
  basically we have our main character Carmi, who due to I'll
• 2:52
  go and mention this part because it's it's pretty much in the
• 2:55
  synopsis whatever his brother ends up passing and so he comes
• 3:00
  back home to basically run his brother slash his family's
• 3:04
  restaurant. And so the show is kind of like
• 3:08
  a journey of the brother and a couple other new people coming
• 3:14
  into this already well established restaurant with a
• 3:20
  crew and stuff that's already been kind of going and operating
• 3:24
  for a while. And so you kind of have this
• 3:27
  mixture of seeing how this restaurant is ran or like going
• 3:33
  through the perspectives of how these characters deal with these
• 3:38
  changing this changes and stuff, whatever for the restaurant
• 3:41
  side, But also getting to see the human side of things, which
• 3:46
  was something I didn't expect going into this whatever.
• 3:49
  Because you know, it's like, you know, it's like OK, something
• 3:51
  about some chefs and cooking or whatever.
• 3:54
  But we get so many deep conversations and moments and
• 3:59
  stuff where we actually get to see the behind the scenes of not
• 4:03
  only of how the restaurant and stuff is ran, but also of these
• 4:07
  various characters lives and stuff.
• 4:11
  And so that is just kind of a high level kind of like basic
• 4:15
  setup for what the show and stuff is about.
• 4:18
  And I guess last point I mentioned too is that Carmi, he
• 4:23
  came from he he he left home years ago, went off, became a
• 4:27
  world renowned chef and then coming back to his small kind of
• 4:32
  rinky dink family. Restaurant Different diner,
• 4:37
  yeah, yeah. And so and so kind of having
• 4:40
  those parallels of going for like like this super high class
• 4:45
  functioning system to they hanging on by literal duct tape
• 4:50
  and threads and stuff. So but, but but enough of me
• 4:55
  rambling up top. Whatever.
• 4:59
  Hold on. All right, So start off with
• 5:04
  actually, you know what I want to go to stay first because
• 5:12
  obviously, like, I want to hear kind of like like like like your
• 5:15
  general spoiler free thoughts. And I also want to mention or or
• 5:20
  or one of the one of the other reasons why it was it's cool
• 5:24
  that you're here is that you also have experience being a
• 5:28
  chef as well. So I definitely want to kind of
• 5:32
  hear your input from that sort of things to it there.
• 5:35
  But but yeah go ahead and you know let me know what what you
• 5:37
  thought of the show and stuff. So.
• 5:41
  So I. I've heard of this show because
• 5:44
  when I used to drive my kids to school, like in the morning
• 5:48
  time, the little radio commercial used to always play
• 5:50
  the bear or whatever. And so I intended on watching
• 5:54
  the first season when it was out.
• 5:55
  But I I didn't know the second season had already even came out
• 5:58
  until. While I was tweeting about it on
• 6:00
  the timeline and I was like, hey, I was like, I'm that far
• 6:03
  behind. But like for me, this show was
• 6:08
  like really good. And it was like like some of the
• 6:11
  things that they touch on and stuff like that, like from the
• 6:15
  perspective of a chef, it's a different, it's a different feel
• 6:19
  than what Y'all might have gotten in that experience and
• 6:21
  stuff like that. So I I really appreciated those
• 6:24
  little bites and stuff like that that they give you and stuff.
• 6:28
  Overall, this show was really, really good.
• 6:30
  Like the character development, watching characters that, you
• 6:33
  know what I'm saying, pretty much seemed like they didn't
• 6:36
  care about their job turned into like, really?
• 6:41
  Yeah. It's like from that, having that
• 6:48
  experience, you know what I'm saying?
• 6:50
  And like those little tidbits and stuff like that that they
• 6:53
  kind of like throw in there just seeing people in cook whites.
• 6:57
  And things like that. Like there was like a scene like
• 7:00
  towards the end of the second season where the sous chef, the
• 7:03
  head sous chef, she kind of had like that little stain on her
• 7:06
  shirt, on her shirt. And he kind of he kind of like
• 7:08
  looks at it a little bit and she's like, I mean I cleaned it
• 7:12
  but it's just like you would only understand like if you got
• 7:14
  cook wise because no matter how much you clean some of them
• 7:17
  clothes, you just can't get some of them stains is just there and
• 7:21
  you just got to buy new cook wise like this is just something
• 7:24
  that you have to do because and that's.
• 7:27
  It's one of the things where like, you know, cook whites, you
• 7:29
  wear white to show that you're clean.
• 7:32
  You know what I'm saying? When you come to shifts, you
• 7:34
  don't want to be dirty. So if you wear like black or
• 7:36
  something, you can kind of like hide certain things, stuff like
• 7:39
  that. So you always wear cook whites.
• 7:41
  Yeah, you always wear cook whites to show that you're clean
• 7:44
  before every shift because cleanliness, you know, in a
• 7:48
  restaurant and stuff like that. But just like those little like
• 7:51
  small nuances that they give you and they feel like it's just
• 7:54
  there for like people that practice culinary and things
• 7:57
  like that. So I really, really appreciated
• 8:00
  the show. Yeah, a lot.
• 8:01
  All right. And you you Rob J.
• 8:06
  Man, man, man, man, yeah. This show is so, so fire.
• 8:13
  Like, I heard about it. Like because I've heard about it
• 8:18
  for, for, for, like. I think, 'cause you said it came
• 8:21
  out last year, right? So, like, I've heard people talk
• 8:24
  about it. People say it's good and what
• 8:25
  not. So I'm like, OK, Like, I just
• 8:28
  put that in the in the back of my mind.
• 8:32
  But actually just watching this show and just going through this
• 8:37
  journey with these characters, there's characters that I hated,
• 8:40
  but then I loved. And then bro, this show was just
• 8:45
  incredible, man. It's.
• 8:47
  Literally one of the best shows that I've ever seen.
• 8:49
  I'm just going to go ahead and say that right now, but man,
• 8:53
  like the character, like the main, like the main thing for
• 8:57
  me, the character development and the character growth, Those
• 9:01
  two things right there are are just Chef's kiss, no pun
• 9:06
  intended. But.
• 9:08
  I just, I just really, really enjoyed the show.
• 9:11
  If anybody, if anybody, if they, if you follow me on Twitter, you
• 9:16
  saw me. Going with my thread, just going
• 9:19
  through all of the different emotions and stuff like that.
• 9:23
  I'm literally telling like now I'm telling all of my friends,
• 9:26
  all of my people watch the bear. I'm telling the if if if I'm
• 9:33
  like at the store or something, I'm tapping just a random
• 9:35
  person, Hey you, you need to be watching the bear please.
• 9:40
  I'm trying to tell as many people as possible to watch this
• 9:42
  show. It is so incredible.
• 9:45
  I just, I'm just really glad and thankful that I started it and
• 9:50
  like I said, it's a really and just like you said, Rob, it's a
• 9:53
  really quick binge. The first season is just eight
• 9:55
  episodes ran. Through that first season,
• 9:59
  immediately. It was really, it was really
• 10:01
  quick. But yeah, man, this show is
• 10:03
  really, is really incredible and it's really special.
• 10:06
  For real, Yeah. And honestly, as quick as that
• 10:12
  first season went and how that first season ended, I'm actually
• 10:16
  glad I didn't come to it until now, because I could Yeah,
• 10:23
  'cause I'm like, I'm like, wait, wait, wait, it it just ended
• 10:26
  there. So, yeah, so some, some.
• 10:30
  Sometimes it kind of pays off coming to shows and stuff a
• 10:36
  little bit later than everybody else, 'cause some some, some
• 10:40
  shows do pretty good about where they end off a season.
• 10:43
  In some shows, it's just like, all right, just somebody just
• 10:48
  hit the pause button. During production was like,
• 10:49
  whoa. You're like, what's going?
• 10:51
  Yeah, You like what's going on? Why?
• 10:52
  Would you do this? Season now, Yeah.
• 10:54
  Why would you do that? Why for sure.
• 10:58
  Exactly. So, So yeah, so, so I think
• 11:01
  listeners, y'all y'all kind of getting a pretty good idea of
• 11:04
  how we feel about it. Like I said in a spoiler free
• 11:07
  sense, like like both Steve and Rob J said is like Tesla.
• 11:12
  Great character development, character moments, a lot of
• 11:15
  which I can't wait to get into in a second.
• 11:18
  But like I said up top for sure, go watch the bear it is on Hulu.
• 11:23
  18 episodes total. I hope we don't have to wait too
• 11:26
  long. Hope hopefully.
• 11:28
  Hey, if if, if last first season, season one was last
• 11:31
  year, season 2 this year hopefully, maybe we might get
• 11:33
  season 3 next year. Fingers crossed.
• 11:35
  I don't. I don't know.
• 11:37
  The riders strike. Strike going on right now.
• 11:40
  Hey, the riders, please. Yes, yes, so.
• 11:44
  But All in all, yeah, go go watch the bear and hit us up.
• 11:48
  Let us know what y'all thought of the show.
• 11:50
  But now we're about to transition into some spoiler
• 11:55
  talk. So.
• 11:58
  Spoilers, spoilers in a few seconds, but I'm gonna pause
• 12:05
  real quick one. All right, so all right.
• 12:13
  So after after a brief Vash intermission, so we we first get
• 12:20
  ready to dive into some of these spoilers.
• 12:23
  So I honestly don't even know where to start with this.
• 12:30
  But but, but, but I guess. I guess I'll say this after I
• 12:33
  should probably mention this in the spoiler free part but Oh
• 12:35
  well. But something else that was
• 12:37
  unexpected with the show was the level of stress.
• 12:44
  Bro, the rock. I'm sorry to cut you off.
• 12:48
  No you could no, you could I was going to say like yeah man, just
• 12:53
  like but between both the in the kitchen stuff and then when some
• 12:59
  of these cursors were going through and they personalized.
• 13:01
  I am like it's it's all very relatable because like because
• 13:07
  because even even though I haven't you know been like a
• 13:11
  chef or whatever I I, I did do fast food for a little bit but
• 13:15
  also just on the customer service side of things too or
• 13:19
  whatever was very relatable on that front and stuff.
• 13:26
  But yeah, but anyway yeah go go go ahead Rob.
• 13:29
  No, bro. It's chaos, the first episode I
• 13:33
  possibly like. The first like. 15 or like.
• 13:36
  Yeah, the 1st 15 minutes. Chaos in the kitchen, outside
• 13:41
  the kitchen, everywhere. It's just chaos.
• 13:43
  That's why Rob, on Twitter, I told you, make sure you watch
• 13:46
  that first. Make sure you have your
• 13:49
  subtitles on for sure. Because you need them.
• 13:52
  Subtitles on because you need to hear what what everybody is
• 13:55
  saying. The names of these different
• 13:59
  characters that's going on. It was just a lot, but.
• 14:04
  In a way it was like our our artistic, excuse me, it was
• 14:09
  like, it was dope in a way. Like I didn't feel like it was
• 14:12
  bad or anything. I was like, wow, so they're
• 14:15
  going from point A to point B to Point C to point D to point E
• 14:18
  and it just kept on going like non-stop.
• 14:21
  And then like, I didn't have any problems with that.
• 14:25
  I mean, bro, it was dope. I was like, yo, there's so much,
• 14:29
  there's so much going on. But they did it in a way that
• 14:32
  was so good. It kind of, it represents the
• 14:36
  pace of the kitchen. Like, literally, that's how fast
• 14:41
  we'd be back there. Like how everything.
• 14:44
  Yeah, bro, Like you turn around for a second and if you turn
• 14:48
  around for too long, you, you come back and somebody then took
• 14:51
  your cutting board. Or like like stuff like that was
• 14:53
  like real like it's like bro, why would you take my cutting
• 14:56
  board? Oh, I didn't think nobody was
• 14:58
  using the problem. I turned around.
• 15:00
  I didn't even walk away. That's just how.
• 15:04
  But everybody moving so fast, you don't even notice that
• 15:07
  somebody is using that cutting board because with nobody on it
• 15:11
  at that moment, so you just snatch it like that.
• 15:14
  That's it was really real, the way that how all this stuff is
• 15:17
  going on and how fast everything was moving.
• 15:20
  Yeah. And so I want to say real quick
• 15:23
  because want one big consistent theme that both applied in the
• 15:29
  kitchen stuff as well as in the outside stuff with these people
• 15:33
  is communication. That's literally what I was
• 15:36
  about to say. That Back corner, corner corner
• 15:40
  front and stuff like that. That's literally what I what I
• 15:42
  was going to say because it was just so much going on at once.
• 15:46
  Back corner, corner. I'm like, oh, snap.
• 15:49
  Like if y'all, if y'all go to like a even if y'all go to like
• 15:51
  a Red Lobster or something like that, just a regular restaurant,
• 15:54
  listen to them, like start paying attention and listen to
• 15:57
  the kitchen back there. That's how they be, They be like
• 15:59
  corner. Then they say that because
• 16:01
  you've got to tell people you're coming around the corner because
• 16:04
  if not I'm carrying food on the tray.
• 16:07
  We crash into each other. So you're supposed to say
• 16:10
  corner, you're supposed to say knife.
• 16:13
  And like, you know what I'm saying?
• 16:14
  Because you got a knife in your hand, but your knife is always
• 16:16
  supposed to be pointing at the ground, so she's stabbed.
• 16:21
  I was like, I was like, bro, what I was like, but like just
• 16:27
  like little stuff like that. You have to say it like you
• 16:30
  know, it's it's important. I need hands because you need
• 16:34
  runners. Young man, yeah, they said that.
• 16:37
  Too, I need somebody to run this food to this table.
• 16:39
  If not, it's going to be in the window and it's going to die.
• 16:41
  You know what I'm saying? So like I need runners like and
• 16:44
  that Expo Line like is for real. Like like that shit is for real.
• 16:50
  I don't know if we just talking about the season or we just
• 16:53
  talking about certain things. But well, one thing I was going
• 16:57
  to add on with with like you said, like this definitely,
• 17:01
  probably this show, definitely going to make me more conscious
• 17:04
  of stuff when I do go to the next time I do go to a
• 17:07
  restaurant, paying attention to those little things because it
• 17:10
  kind of reminds me in the way of like how you know, most
• 17:15
  listeners, if y'all been listening to the show, for y'all
• 17:18
  know, I work in IT specifically. Now I work in IT within the
• 17:21
  medical field. So, you know, everywhere I go,
• 17:27
  even when I go to like fast food restaurants, if I if I go to the
• 17:30
  hospital or whatever, I'm always looking at it like oh, what type
• 17:33
  of monitors they got, what type of computers they got and like
• 17:37
  just little gadgets, even like the the credit card machines or
• 17:40
  whatever. All that stuff, that stuff I
• 17:42
  deal with in my day-to-day or whatever.
• 17:44
  So you know, I'll be somewhere and I kind of be noticing their
• 17:49
  technologies and how they have stuff set up.
• 17:51
  And sometimes they'll be like, man, that that is very dumb,
• 17:54
  whoever set this up, you know, and stuff like that, like that,
• 18:00
  like who, who is y'all IT department or whatever, because
• 18:02
  Y'all could have done this more efficiently or whatever.
• 18:05
  And so like I said, that's watching this show is going to
• 18:07
  come and make me more aware of those things or whatever, which
• 18:14
  which I've always kind of been like appreciative of certain
• 18:18
  aspects of stuff like that. Because like I say, even though
• 18:21
  I haven't been in that level, I worked fast food for a little
• 18:24
  bit. But like I said, I've done, you
• 18:26
  know, a decade plus of just customer service.
• 18:29
  So you know little things like that that you've experienced
• 18:32
  yourself you kind of give grace to because it's like hey man, I
• 18:37
  understand you cool. I'm not tripping or whatever
• 18:41
  because I know what it's like being on the other side.
• 18:43
  So but but 111 of the things I kind of want to touch on before
• 18:50
  I forget just with the chaos and stuff.
• 18:55
  Whatever. I I have to talk about part of
• 18:59
  that the last episode of season 2.
• 19:02
  Like think things were looking good things is looking good.
• 19:08
  And then that moment when you know of course when Carmen got
• 19:12
  locked in the in the freezer or whatever that was whatever but
• 19:17
  had the team coming together. We getting stuff done knocking
• 19:20
  tickets out or whatever. And then it's like cool.
• 19:22
  We've cleared out the tickets. But then the moment when Sydney
• 19:26
  realizes that the thing was out of the printer paper and you
• 19:30
  hear. The and you hear the sound going
• 19:33
  meaning that there's still orders that's been coming but
• 19:36
  they don't know because there's no receipts being printed.
• 19:39
  And how she just kind of just walked away was just like, hey,
• 19:44
  I'm just going to step out because it's like it's they they
• 19:47
  they're asked at that point because it's like it's OK.
• 19:50
  We went through hell and back, knocked these orders out or
• 19:53
  whatever and now we think, OK, we got everything under control,
• 19:56
  but a simple thing like your printer ran out of.
• 20:00
  And I've been there before. And Oh no, that's another thing
• 20:05
  where you just you kind of like be on top of people that's
• 20:09
  working there because those tickets, they come out white,
• 20:13
  but then after a certain around, they just like a pink streak in
• 20:17
  the ticket that lets you know it's getting low on paper, you
• 20:20
  know what I'm saying? And so like if like if the
• 20:26
  ticket is pink or whatever and it starts coming out, let's say.
• 20:29
  Whoever is over that, you know what I'm saying?
• 20:31
  Area whichever cookie is, he'll tell you.
• 20:34
  Or whoever is like the lead chef, he'll tell you, hey,
• 20:37
  somebody changed my paper and he'll walk out the kitchen.
• 20:39
  If he come back in that kitchen and see another pink take it in
• 20:43
  the head, he going to go off because.
• 20:46
  Because he told you to, do you know what I'm saying?
• 20:48
  Somebody do it. He don't care who would do it,
• 20:50
  you know what I'm saying? But you don't change that.
• 20:53
  Like that could be a big issue. Yeah.
• 20:55
  Yeah. So so I, I, I I just had to
• 20:57
  mention that part because before I forgot about just watching
• 21:01
  just the stress come over her face and stuff.
• 21:04
  So yeah. But so we're I kind of want to
• 21:07
  take the conversation next because we talked about it
• 21:10
  earlier was the characters and stuff and so like a a a lot of
• 21:17
  people on this cast some of them I hadn't really ever seen it too
• 21:22
  much before of of course like like once we got to the second
• 21:25
  season and and specifically that I think what was it Episode 6
• 21:31
  that very big. Episode 6.
• 21:33
  Yeah. So, So when you started saying
• 21:35
  like Bob Oden, Kirk and John Berthaw, yeah, John Berthaw,
• 21:43
  thank you. That, that that's when I was
• 21:44
  trying to reject Jamie Lee Curtis.
• 21:45
  And like those like big names with them like, OK, of course,
• 21:48
  but a lot of these people, even I hadn't really ever seen them
• 21:52
  in much before. They all did a phenomenal job
• 21:56
  and acting. Bro.
• 22:00
  They putting on the clinic. Putting on the clinic, bro.
• 22:03
  Yes and so, so, so I guess I kind of want to start this off
• 22:06
  with some of our kind of like standout characters and stuff.
• 22:14
  And so I'll kind of start off with and I think I think both of
• 22:19
  y'all had said it earlier with like characters that you that we
• 22:22
  all kind of hated or disliked at 1st and they kind of came around
• 22:25
  on one of the ones. One of the first ones for me
• 22:28
  that kind of came around on was Tina.
• 22:31
  Bro, I despised her so much. She she wouldn't have made it
• 22:37
  through a shift if I was over that kitchen bro out like.
• 22:43
  She was pissing me off, bro. Yeah, 'cause I don't speak.
• 22:47
  English and all of a sudden, bro.
• 22:50
  Out of the camera there, day one.
• 22:51
  Out of it, like, all right, this is what we got to do.
• 22:53
  This is that. And she would have been acting
• 22:55
  like that. I'd have been like, all right,
• 22:56
  let me go ahead and show you. I'm gonna show.
• 22:58
  I'm gonna show the whole. Restaurant Y'all not going to
• 23:00
  play with me? Yeah, fuck out.
• 23:01
  And that just wouldn't be what it would yeah.
• 23:05
  And so so yeah. So she she was definitely one of
• 23:07
  the first characters that like, like like we all just said like
• 23:13
  every time she came up or that I was like, man, she about to
• 23:16
  start some mess. She I can remember when she oh,
• 23:20
  like like when when she turned up the the temperature on that
• 23:23
  pile, whatever it was on the stove, just like purposely like
• 23:27
  sabotage and stuff, whatever. It's like like like stink.
• 23:30
  I'm like, I'm like, all right, you got to go.
• 23:33
  But then, like seeing her slow shift over the course of the two
• 23:39
  seasons and stuff to where it was like where her and Cindy
• 23:43
  kind of started to kind of find a mutual understanding to when,
• 23:49
  you know, she kind of kind of kind of got like like promoted
• 23:52
  to like more of a lead to where they sent her off to go do the
• 23:57
  training and stuff, whatever. And then I loved that episode
• 24:02
  where she went and did the karaoke and stuff.
• 24:05
  Karaoke. Yes, Sir.
• 24:06
  Yeah, she was singing and stuff and then her kind of leading the
• 24:11
  charge of the next new recruits and stuff.
• 24:13
  Whatever. Just like her, her, her whole
• 24:15
  arc. I was like, I was like, OK, that
• 24:18
  that is what this show is, is taking these characters and just
• 24:23
  showing that there are multiple sides to these people and that,
• 24:28
  yeah, you know, they some of these characters might suck, you
• 24:32
  know, or seemingly suck, whatever.
• 24:34
  But sometimes some of them have their own personal baggage that
• 24:39
  they're dealing with stuff that they're going through with their
• 24:41
  families or personal lives or whatever that, you know, not
• 24:45
  necessarily excuses their horrible attitudes or whatever,
• 24:49
  but just kind of gives a little bit better context of like, I
• 24:52
  still don't like you or I still didn't like you, but I can kind
• 24:56
  of see how what you went through in your past, you know, led to
• 25:03
  you being how you are and stuff now.
• 25:05
  So. So Rob, who, who, who, Who is?
• 25:10
  If you want to expand on that, go ahead.
• 25:12
  Oh, yeah, I was, bro. I When I tell you bro, I hate
• 25:16
  it. Tina.
• 25:16
  I'm like, why are you being so petty?
• 25:19
  Like what do you gain from this? What's the point?
• 25:22
  She was just doing like, little stuff.
• 25:24
  I'm like, bro, why? What's the point, Jeff?
• 25:28
  Doing the whole. Jeff thing.
• 25:30
  I'm like, bro, just call him chef man.
• 25:32
  Like, Oh my God. Yeah, like she was making me so
• 25:38
  mad. But then like just like just
• 25:41
  just like you said, Rob. Like for her, her character
• 25:44
  development man was so, Oh yeah, just when she went out to the to
• 25:53
  the club and everything, that was just so, so great to say, I
• 25:58
  was like, hold on. She can see OK now vocals, I see
• 26:02
  you, I see you. But it was just really, it was
• 26:06
  really dope to see her character.
• 26:08
  And even with the the knife, the knife, that was really that
• 26:16
  whole thing was really super dope to me too.
• 26:19
  I was like, oh wow. So Carmi really believes in her
• 26:24
  and. It was young.
• 26:27
  Guy. Yeah, it's your knife.
• 26:28
  So that that was dope to see, like when it comes to Tina, but
• 26:33
  my one of my favorite characters in the show was the the Uncle
• 26:40
  Uncle Jeff. I think now for those who know
• 26:43
  me, and I think I talked about this the last time that I was on
• 26:46
  this podcast, he plays Doctor Charles in Chicago Med, now
• 26:52
  Chicago. Yeah, he's like a huge character
• 26:55
  in that show. One of my favorite characters in
• 26:58
  all of like the Chicago Med, Chicago Fire, all that stuff.
• 27:04
  And to see him in this role, it was like, it was funny to see
• 27:09
  because bro, I've never heard him like say like a bad word,
• 27:13
  cuss, anything. It was so funny to see bro.
• 27:16
  I was rolling. I was like wow.
• 27:17
  But like his character to me was like super dope, especially in
• 27:23
  the in the 6th. That episode in season 2, it
• 27:26
  seemed like he had like a really, like, good relationship
• 27:29
  with the mom. I was like, OK, what's what's
• 27:32
  going on here? But yeah, man, yeah.
• 27:35
  So that's probably like one of my, like, favorite characters.
• 27:40
  That's not like you know, Sid or like or anybody else like that.
• 27:47
  I got two that I really like. Really, really like.
• 27:52
  I really like fact. FAC bro.
• 27:56
  FAC was so funny bro. They whole family was crazy.
• 28:01
  Yeah. He's funny, but then he like,
• 28:05
  he's like I'm maintenance, but he also, he wanted to have that
• 28:09
  opportunity to be a cook and stuff like that and just
• 28:11
  watching him like really, really pursue that and then he finally
• 28:15
  like, you know what I'm saying, talk to him into letting him
• 28:18
  have those type of moments and stuff like that.
• 28:20
  I really thought that that was dope just watching his grind.
• 28:24
  From him, like, really? You know what I'm saying?
• 28:25
  Yeah, I'm still maintenance because even at the end he was
• 28:28
  like, you got a screwdriver. He said it looked like I got a
• 28:29
  screwdriver and then he pulled it out.
• 28:31
  He's like. Yeah, and he put out.
• 28:33
  The time, Yeah, right. I thought that it was cool, but
• 28:35
  it was like, it was like where he was like, I'm taking my role
• 28:38
  serious, you know, I'm being taken more serious in my role
• 28:41
  as, AI guess, a management position or a chef position.
• 28:45
  But also, I still have. I'm still true to that core.
• 28:49
  Of the maintenance and stuff like that.
• 28:51
  And you got people like that for real at the restaurants too,
• 28:54
  like that have different things that they can do outside of
• 28:57
  cooking and then the manager will be doing something and then
• 29:00
  they'll just out of nowhere start fixing something like how
• 29:02
  you I didn't know you like, you know what I'm saying?
• 29:05
  Because all all you ever see them is in uniform cooking.
• 29:08
  So when they start doing stuff you're like.
• 29:10
  Oh snap. You guys have other skills in
• 29:12
  life, you know what I'm saying? So I thought that was cool.
• 29:15
  And then I like Marcus a lot too, bro.
• 29:18
  Marcus was incredible. Yeah, Marcus the Baker.
• 29:21
  You know what I'm saying? And then he just fall in love
• 29:23
  with that craft of like really, really like enjoying bacon and
• 29:27
  stuff like that. I actually was really, really
• 29:29
  mad at comedy when he knocked that fucking doughnut out of his
• 29:33
  hand. I was like.
• 29:36
  I get it like it's the rest and stuff.
• 29:39
  What was tweaking, bro? Like Because like at that point
• 29:42
  I'm like, bro, you need to like, focus on your job.
• 29:46
  You keep trying to focus on this one little thing here.
• 29:50
  I finally got it. I.
• 29:52
  Was like bro. I was so bad I was mad at
• 29:56
  because he was so happy and proud of what he did, but he
• 29:59
  definitely like seeing seeing screwed that whole situation up
• 30:04
  though by not. Doing the to go things or
• 30:07
  whatever. Yeah, like she screwed that
• 30:10
  whole situation up. And I get it like he was
• 30:14
  tripping. He was tweaking.
• 30:15
  He was doing too much how angry he was.
• 30:17
  But come on bro, don't walk out on me on this shit.
• 30:20
  Like you can leave. You can leave once we fucking
• 30:23
  get out of the weeds, you know what I'm saying?
• 30:25
  And then we back into like, you know what I'm saying, regular
• 30:28
  things now you'd be like, hey, I don't like the way you talk to
• 30:30
  people. I'm out.
• 30:31
  You know what I'm saying? But especially when you are the
• 30:33
  cause of all of this. But you didn't walk.
• 30:36
  Yes, but you didn't walk out on that ship.
• 30:38
  I was like, she couldn't have. Came.
• 30:43
  Down. You turn the pre-orders on.
• 30:46
  Why? No, he wasn't supposed to do
• 30:48
  that. But but yeah, that, that, that,
• 30:51
  that hormone was just just so funny because he just kind of
• 30:54
  walked. He was like, like, I'm done.
• 30:56
  He's like, call me, call me. Basically, like, the F is this.
• 31:02
  Are you serious? Get that out of my face, man.
• 31:07
  But and I also loved when he got to go to, what was it?
• 31:12
  A Copenhagen. Yeah.
• 31:15
  And just like, it was incredible too.
• 31:16
  Like him getting this fresh experience of going to a new
• 31:20
  country, living on this boat or whatever, and then and then
• 31:25
  training with that one chef or whatever.
• 31:29
  Will Poulter? Will Poulter.
• 31:30
  Here. Yeah, yeah, like hearing their
• 31:33
  conversations and stuff was was just just so, so dope and so
• 31:39
  cool to see. So another character, Of course
• 31:43
  we got to talk about freaking Richie, AKA Cousin.
• 31:49
  Cousin. He would have had to get out
• 31:51
  too, like that first episode. I would have put my foot down.
• 31:54
  Two people would have been fired that first episode out of it,
• 31:57
  like. I'll be like Bob wrestling run
• 32:00
  down too. Oh yeah, you.
• 32:03
  Fine, man, man, man, 'cause, like cause 'cause I honestly I
• 32:08
  ain't think, I ain't think he's going to make it because 'cause,
• 32:11
  like 'cause his character development came in, you know,
• 32:14
  last last two minutes or the fourth quarter.
• 32:20
  You know, like like we we thinking like, oh man, I ain't
• 32:22
  no hope for this dude, you know, and and especially, you know,
• 32:27
  especially that that moment where you know, his ex or
• 32:32
  whatever kind of was like, hey, I'm, I'm about to get married
• 32:36
  and all this stuff, whatever. But it was dope him getting to
• 32:41
  go and train. Light, light, light.
• 32:43
  Like a lot of the crew members, a lot of their growth came when
• 32:47
  they got kind of sent a way to do this, their various training
• 32:50
  arcs and stuff, whatever, so to speak.
• 32:52
  But they got to see, yeah, at all a different level of like
• 32:57
  what they could what. I think what it was was Carmen
• 33:01
  was showing them his vision of like, this is what I want to do.
• 33:04
  So then once they went to those training, they saw how big it
• 33:08
  could be for them or whatever. Like, they like, OK, this is
• 33:12
  actually like something, you know what I'm saying?
• 33:14
  It's like and you kind of, even though you are on a lower scale
• 33:19
  in a sense like at a diner and stuff like that, you still kind
• 33:21
  of understand certain things and you like, oh OK like I know how
• 33:25
  to do this And if I did it. In another way it could be like
• 33:29
  this and stuff like that. So I really appreciate it like
• 33:32
  watching them go train at different locations and stuff
• 33:36
  like that. Yeah cuz I cuz cuz I with Richie
• 33:40
  man. Like like they pretty much
• 33:44
  pulled him kicking and screaming throughout the whole season.
• 33:46
  Cuz I cuz every every time they try to make a small change or
• 33:51
  tweak, he was like, no, this isn't how we've been doing it.
• 33:55
  And y'all, you know, y'all kids trying to come in here and you
• 33:59
  know, messing, messing up the process or whatever he's saying
• 34:03
  or whatever he was saying. But like, like, like you said,
• 34:07
  Steve, like him kind of getting put into the situation, this
• 34:11
  training, whatever, where he thought that he got sent there
• 34:15
  as punishment as like, oh, they just trying to Get Me Out the
• 34:18
  way while they working and renovating the restaurant or
• 34:21
  whatever. And it's like, no, Carmen sent
• 34:23
  you here because he believes in you.
• 34:26
  He sees your potential. And I just loved like seeing
• 34:31
  that slow shift over those days and it's kind of crazy that that
• 34:35
  that happened over a week. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 34:39
  That was crazy. He he he he had that that anime
• 34:42
  level training or like like like we we going to put you on a
• 34:48
  accelerated plan stuff so but but but yeah it it was just very
• 34:54
  dope to see him picking up the tips and tricks but also he he
• 35:00
  still kind of got to keep some of his own little personality in
• 35:05
  there with how he did stuff but kind of little bit more toned
• 35:07
  down little bit more refined. And I loved how he he embraced
• 35:13
  wearing the suit. The suit was kind of like his
• 35:15
  symbol of like, hey, I love wearing this suit and when he
• 35:19
  was like, it makes me feel good or whatever, you know, it it
• 35:23
  it's kind of kind of like the kind of like like the black
• 35:26
  man's equivalent of getting a a haircut, you know?
• 35:30
  Literally, bro. That's.
• 35:32
  The perfect. That's the perfect analogy, bro.
• 35:34
  That's. The perfect How How I Met Your
• 35:37
  Mother When You like suit up. No, Literally.
• 35:43
  Yeah. Literally, bro.
• 35:45
  Yeah. No, Rob, you spitting bro.
• 35:49
  Richie, man, his character development because of course,
• 35:52
  bro. He, I think who whoever watched
• 35:56
  that first season is just like, yo, I hate him.
• 35:59
  I don't want anything to do with him.
• 36:00
  He's the worst, like. Bro.
• 36:03
  That worse and worse situation. Yes, bro.
• 36:06
  But like bro, that 7th episode in season 2, like that whole
• 36:10
  episode was just, Oh my God, it was just incredible.
• 36:14
  It was amazing to see his his growth.
• 36:17
  And I wasn't. I didn't think that he could
• 36:21
  like change and become a like a much better person.
• 36:26
  But I mean, he did, and it was really dope to see.
• 36:31
  That part about like, his his his ex calling him on the phone,
• 36:35
  I was like, no, no, because like she she was like, yo, I have
• 36:41
  something that I have to tell you.
• 36:43
  I'm thinking, oh snap, is this something bad like this?
• 36:46
  Did somebody die? Like what happened?
• 36:51
  But she got proposed to and I was like Dang.
• 36:55
  That and it could throw you off your game too.
• 36:58
  Like, you know what I'm saying? If you having a great week and
• 37:01
  then something like that happened, then you come to work
• 37:03
  into a stressful environment that could throw.
• 37:06
  In. The and I think that played a
• 37:10
  part into that final conversation with him and
• 37:13
  Carmen. When Carmen had said over, he
• 37:16
  said what he said about his girlfriend and then she walks
• 37:20
  away and then he like, yo, what did he what did you say to her?
• 37:23
  You know what I'm saying, 'cause he like, like, I know what it's
• 37:26
  like to lose somebody. You know what I'm saying?
• 37:28
  That you really care about you. You fumble in the bag.
• 37:32
  You know what I'm saying? Just because.
• 37:34
  So I think that played a part into that conversation overall
• 37:37
  as well. Yeah which Which Which of course
• 37:39
  Speaking of which we we we of course got to got to touch on
• 37:42
  Carmen and stuff too and and that situation too with him
• 37:46
  getting a girl girlfriend and stuff too because like because
• 37:50
  that that was something I I wasn't expecting.
• 37:52
  But part part of me also felt like he needed something to
• 37:56
  happen to kind of pull him out of the restaurant a little bit
• 38:01
  because it was like he was just living and breathing that
• 38:05
  restaurant, which it's like it's like it's just like fully just
• 38:09
  consumed him to where like he had, he had nothing else, no
• 38:13
  other personality trait aside from this restaurant and trying
• 38:18
  to fix it. And so him kind of more or less
• 38:23
  like rekindling. What it's not even rekindling
• 38:26
  because they never had nothing to begin with, but basically
• 38:29
  running into somebody from back in the day.
• 38:32
  Back in the day, yeah, yeah. Having a conversation of like,
• 38:34
  hey, I actually know her being like, hey, I actually really
• 38:37
  liked you and you know, all that stuff, whatever.
• 38:41
  So it it was kind of dope, him finally having something and
• 38:47
  someone outside of the restaurant and that crew or
• 38:52
  whatever, but but but what? What?
• 38:55
  What did y'all think of Carmi as a whole and stuff his character
• 38:59
  and stuff throughout the show? I really like this.
• 39:04
  I liked him because he was coming up from a different fine
• 39:08
  dining experience and then going back into like a screwed up
• 39:13
  situation. Restaurant in the world.
• 39:17
  By the way. This is the best restaurant in
• 39:19
  the whole world. Yeah, And then he's going back
• 39:22
  to like, try to clean up this mess of a restaurant and try to
• 39:26
  make it, you know, something to be proud of and stuff like that.
• 39:30
  But then he's also dealing with the stress of toxic management
• 39:34
  at his other restaurant, you know what I'm saying?
• 39:36
  So that stuff is like. Rubbing off on him as he's
• 39:41
  trying to manage his restaurant. And I think that's just watching
• 39:45
  him try to like and still like. I mean, he still hasn't really
• 39:49
  figured it out, but it's just like him trying to like take the
• 39:53
  gas, take his foot off the gas of like being that asshole
• 39:57
  manager, you know what I'm saying?
• 39:59
  Because like every now and then, you can see he's trying to be
• 40:01
  like. God, let me be understanding.
• 40:03
  Like when he gave Chinda the knife with Sydney when he was
• 40:07
  like, I think this is a good idea or something like that.
• 40:10
  Like little things like that, where he still sees it, but then
• 40:12
  every now and then whenever the pressure is on, the anxiety is
• 40:15
  on, he reverts back to that like jerk manager, you know what I'm
• 40:20
  saying? That he despises himself, that
• 40:22
  he keeps playing back in his head or why you so slow and all
• 40:26
  this other stuff. Like he keeps having those
• 40:28
  moments and it's just like is rubbed off on him so much
• 40:32
  because he's been in the number one restaurant in the world.
• 40:35
  But you don't have to be that type of person.
• 40:38
  And I think he's kind of like still he trying, still trying to
• 40:42
  figure that out. He's in therapy in those little
• 40:44
  group sessions and stuff like that, you know what I'm saying?
• 40:48
  So he's still trying to figure it out.
• 40:49
  And then on top of that, dealing with the stress of your brother,
• 40:53
  you know what I'm saying? Which you felt like your brother
• 40:56
  didn't care about you. All this other stuff, you know
• 40:59
  what I'm saying? Like just a lot, you know?
• 41:02
  So I think, I think that that's really a lot going on with that
• 41:06
  character with Carmen or whatever.
• 41:08
  And he's still got a lot more character development to go,
• 41:11
  because even in the freezer it was like he was just like.
• 41:16
  That was fired, though, like that scene with him and his
• 41:20
  cousin arguing, and it was like that was fired.
• 41:26
  That was gas. I feel OK.
• 41:28
  Like all right what what Steve said.
• 41:33
  All of that is true. But going back to to Claire that
• 41:37
  that that was his girlfriend. I wasn't a fan of them together.
• 41:40
  I'm not going to lie. I was like bro, because he's she
• 41:44
  was throwing him off of his game low key.
• 41:46
  Like there was so much things that he had to do.
• 41:49
  He had to go with Sid to to to. What was it called?
• 41:54
  Go check out. Different taste testing.
• 41:56
  Taste testing. Taste testing.
• 41:58
  That's what it was like, bro. You you, you were supposed to
• 42:01
  call the freaking refrigerator guy.
• 42:05
  And as soon as because that that scene was fired too, As soon as
• 42:10
  he was about to call him, she as soon as as literally as soon as
• 42:15
  as soon as as Carmen was, was about to press call.
• 42:19
  Like literally when he was about to press the button.
• 42:22
  There's there's there's the girl calling him.
• 42:25
  So I'm like, bro Claire, like threw him off of his game.
• 42:30
  Like he wasn't focused and I was just like bro.
• 42:33
  Like, I just didn't like them together.
• 42:36
  Like as as a whole. I'm not going to lie.
• 42:39
  I was just like, bro what what is she doing, man?
• 42:42
  Like he, he has so many things that he has to do and you're
• 42:46
  just here just throwing everything off.
• 42:49
  So I was just like, Dang, sometimes love be like that,
• 42:53
  it'll throw. You in the Powers.
• 42:59
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 43:00
  I sorry I I was going to say I I I still enjoyed her because like
• 43:04
  but you know it. You know, I I do get what you're
• 43:07
  saying, Rob, but you know it is also kind of like that thing of
• 43:09
  like because because because they're probably what maybe late
• 43:15
  20s we would think maybe probably probably about 28
• 43:20
  because I think early 30s, yeah, Sydney is 28.
• 43:24
  OK, Michelle. OK.
• 43:26
  OK. So, so there's a chance they
• 43:28
  they might be maybe knocking it to like early 30s maybe with
• 43:33
  like like like with Carmi and cousin and people like like
• 43:38
  those or whatever they probably in the early 30s or whatever or
• 43:43
  something like that potentially. Actually, though though,
• 43:48
  Richard, he might even be older. Because I know he's definitely
• 43:51
  older. Yeah, so but Benny who But, but
• 43:54
  yeah going going back with with the Clara stuff you know it it
• 44:00
  it is also also probably kind of tough coming to bad situation
• 44:04
  from the other sides where I was like OK, you run into this
• 44:06
  person that you had a crush on back in the day.
• 44:09
  When you was in. School.
• 44:11
  And so it's like, you know she also has a very stressful job
• 44:15
  working operating rooms and stuff.
• 44:17
  And so for her it's maybe, you know like for her she kind of
• 44:20
  has a little bit more separation potentially to where.
• 44:23
  But but also she, it seems like she's been in her career a
• 44:26
  little bit more established than him, kind of like we say in the
• 44:31
  midst of all this chaos or whatever.
• 44:33
  And so you know her not fully understanding, and then him not
• 44:37
  having the proper. Vocabulary to express what he's
• 44:44
  feeling and what he's going through.
• 44:45
  Whatever. Because as we saw, which we'll
• 44:47
  probably touch on in a second, that Episode 6 of Season 2, like
• 44:51
  how how much trauma this dude got you.
• 44:54
  Know. It it is, it is like you know
• 44:58
  it's it's a tough situation on on both sides to kind of be
• 45:03
  being unfortunately with that. And and real quick I wanted to
• 45:10
  shout out real quick too because I don't know, we're not going to
• 45:13
  go through every single character but but of course we
• 45:16
  got to touch on Sydney. She is super dope.
• 45:24
  I'm. I'm already looking forward to
• 45:27
  checking out more stuff with her because finding out that she, I
• 45:30
  don't know who, but I know she was somebody in spider verse.
• 45:32
  She's she's the, what you call it, the digital digitizer,
• 45:40
  virtual one. She's that one.
• 45:42
  Yeah, she's the virtual spider or whatever.
• 45:44
  And that she's going to be April O'Neil in the Curves movie she
• 45:48
  was in. She was in Black Mirror.
• 45:51
  In that first episode of Black Mirror?
• 45:53
  Yep, Yep. She's in a lot of stuff, like
• 45:56
  she's coming up real quick. She's going crazy, bro.
• 45:59
  Yeah, she's going crazy. Yeah, she bro, she was.
• 46:03
  Absolutely incredible in this show though.
• 46:05
  Like, I loved her from the first season to the second season.
• 46:10
  Like she was just so, so dope man, for sure.
• 46:17
  I before we go back to Sydney, I forgot to say this about Carmen.
• 46:22
  Carmen and how his mind be all over the place.
• 46:25
  Y'all remember when we were thinking to those cousins that
• 46:28
  left those cigarettes on the thing?
• 46:31
  Yeah, it was him the whole time. Yeah, he didn't even realize it
• 46:35
  until he went to go smoke a cigarette.
• 46:37
  And I was like bro he. Couldn't find a cigarette.
• 46:40
  She was like, oh, snap me now, yo, Yeah.
• 46:42
  So his mind is always racing and all over the place, so I don't
• 46:45
  even think it's just the girl that's throwing off this.
• 46:48
  Claire. Yeah.
• 46:49
  I think it's just him in general, just because all the
• 46:51
  stress that he put himself under, we're trying to manage a
• 46:55
  restaurant and then also dealing with the stress of your brother
• 46:59
  and everything like that. And and then something that was
• 47:03
  really cool was the the letter that his brother left and the
• 47:10
  recipe for the spaghetti or whatever and stuff like that.
• 47:13
  And it was at first, like, you could see it in his face.
• 47:16
  He was like, I'm thinking that this is going to be a real
• 47:18
  letter and you gave me a recipe to the spaghetti that I don't
• 47:22
  even want to do. But then after a while, it kind
• 47:25
  of like it was this realization of like, OK, you know what I'm
• 47:28
  saying? It wasn't.
• 47:29
  He wasn't. He didn't seem as pissed as when
• 47:31
  he first opened the letter, because at first he was shaking
• 47:33
  like, what the heck? Like, I'm thinking he wrote me a
• 47:36
  goodbye letter and it's just the recipe for the spaghetti.
• 47:39
  And then it's just kind of like he cooled down for a second.
• 47:42
  I like that. Which which that that whole part
• 47:47
  within itself was just so wild, just because it's like.
• 47:50
  You know, like like the the the uncle or Uncle Jimmy, whatever.
• 47:55
  Was basically like questioning like like like like like what
• 47:58
  happened to all the money I gave him, whatever.
• 48:01
  And then it's like. Oh yeah.
• 48:03
  They'll put all these thousands and thousands of dollars in
• 48:06
  these freaking cans of tomato sauce.
• 48:09
  Bro, I was like, what? Yo.
• 48:14
  Yeah, like, literally, like that scene.
• 48:17
  I was like, wait. That's why he did that.
• 48:20
  I'm like Oh my God it was so crazy.
• 48:24
  Well they were stuck on that spaghetti, bro and that.
• 48:26
  I mean that might make sense why the cousin was like now we can't
• 48:29
  take spaghetti off the menu too because he probably do you know
• 48:32
  what I'm saying? Like that's where the money was
• 48:34
  and stuff like that. But the whole time that that,
• 48:37
  like I'm I'm interested to know more because we haven't really
• 48:42
  touched on the outside of that Episode 6 Season 2.
• 48:46
  I'm. I want to know more about this
• 48:48
  family about the family and stuff like that.
• 48:51
  Like I I want to know how or what was the moment when John
• 48:55
  Birkenau realized that it was too much or figured out that it
• 49:00
  was too much. Over the end I want to know more
• 49:03
  about Jamie Lees Curtis like what's going on.
• 49:06
  Like, I don't know if she got dementia or if it's like, I
• 49:09
  don't, I don't know what's going on, like, and they kind of like
• 49:13
  have left it up in the air, like, you know what I'm saying?
• 49:18
  I was like there was a lot to go into that.
• 49:20
  Like then like you saying like Uncle Jimmy seems to be a fan of
• 49:25
  her and all that other stuff because I could have sworn that
• 49:28
  they kissed or something like that.
• 49:29
  I don't know if it's just because it's Italian or
• 49:32
  something like that or. Yeah, I was like, hold on.
• 49:38
  I don't know if it's Italian or if he's with his, you know what
• 49:42
  I'm saying? Yeah.
• 49:43
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I think they
• 49:46
  sister-in-law, so it's not they, not per SE family.
• 49:50
  But you know, I'm like, are you messing with your brother, girl?
• 49:54
  You know what I'm saying? Like, what is going on with this
• 49:56
  whole situation? There's so much that I want to
• 50:01
  know with that whole. Thing.
• 50:02
  Yeah, because like, and I guess we kind of touch on that too,
• 50:07
  like like just more with that family and with that, with that
• 50:11
  episode 6. Because because honestly, the
• 50:15
  the the way that episode ended with her car crashing through
• 50:18
  the house, whatever, I thought that I thought that that was
• 50:22
  implying that she died there. And so yeah, so like like in
• 50:27
  those final episode or whatever, when when it was like, no, I
• 50:31
  invited for the final couple episodes when it was like, oh,
• 50:33
  we we invited mom. I was oh, wait, she's still
• 50:36
  around. I thought that she was done, you
• 50:40
  know? In the first episode, what's his
• 50:43
  sister name? Sugar.
• 50:45
  I can't remember her name. Sugar, sugar, sugar, sugar.
• 50:49
  Yeah. She goes in the first episode,
• 50:52
  she goes to Carmen. It was like, yo, when when was
• 50:56
  the last time you like, talked to Mom?
• 50:59
  So I guess, yeah. So I guess that's something
• 51:03
  there to like tell that like that she was still a lot.
• 51:06
  So I was like, OK, well, I was thinking she was like in a
• 51:08
  retirement home or something like that.
• 51:11
  Yeah, because you just because I was thinking that situation with
• 51:16
  that crash was like when they decided we need to do something
• 51:20
  with her like she can't, you know what I'm saying?
• 51:23
  So that's what I was thinking. But then when she and I, that
• 51:26
  was a a dope, like it was a real powerful moment when she shows
• 51:32
  up and then the son-in-law comes out there and he's talking to
• 51:36
  her and he ends up going back inside to talk to his wife.
• 51:39
  And he kind of just like, you know what I'm saying, I love you
• 51:42
  and all this other. It was like, actually it was it
• 51:45
  was powerful, bro. Bro, That.
• 51:46
  That. No, I'm sorry, Steve.
• 51:48
  Go ahead. No, you good.
• 51:50
  I was going to say, I know, like he's supposed to be that
• 51:51
  character where they kind of like hate him in the family and
• 51:55
  stuff like that. But I was all like, bro, seeing
• 51:57
  that he got to like kind of hold stuff together in that sense.
• 52:00
  Like, yeah, That was like, really?
• 52:02
  Powerful bro. When I tell you I'm sorry.
• 52:06
  Sorry, I was going to just add real quick just on on that part
• 52:09
  of when when he slipped up and mentioned about the baby.
• 52:14
  It was like, yeah, Oh my God. It was like, crap, she.
• 52:23
  Didn't tell her I was like wait, Oh yeah, like a good like a good
• 52:28
  like, I don't know, I was. Like though, though the part
• 52:31
  partners also feeling like. Part of me was also feeling like
• 52:35
  maybe she was maybe planning on telling her when she came to the
• 52:37
  restaurant too. Maybe that that might have been
• 52:41
  a good thing. Like, hey, remember this, this
• 52:43
  restaurant that you bought back in the day and everything has
• 52:45
  happened through it or whatever, hey, call me.
• 52:48
  We all kind of plan together, Fixed it up.
• 52:50
  So and also. This is happening.
• 52:54
  A baby did it. It does so but but but my my bad
• 52:57
  bro. Go ahead.
• 52:58
  No, I was just going to say it, bro.
• 52:59
  That was probably one of the best episodes I've ever seen in
• 53:03
  any television. I'm going to say it's the second
• 53:07
  best episode I've ever seen in my entire life.
• 53:10
  I was just look like the whole time.
• 53:13
  I just was like, bro, what's going on here?
• 53:16
  It was chaos. It was good.
• 53:18
  It was just. Oh my God, throw it.
• 53:21
  He's like, throw it. Throw the four, throw the four,
• 53:25
  throw it. I was.
• 53:27
  I was like, he gonna throw it. I knew he was gonna.
• 53:30
  Throw it. I didn't know like when it
• 53:32
  finally. Happened like when he was going
• 53:34
  to do it, he just finally snapped.
• 53:36
  He was like. I'm like, man the the, the
• 53:41
  constant build up of tension that whole episode.
• 53:46
  Because, because and especially because I all, all them freaking
• 53:49
  clocks kept going off, the timers kept going off and like
• 53:54
  like that constant ringing sound, the arguing, the fussing,
• 53:59
  everything else in between. And it's like it's like we we
• 54:03
  knew at some point the mom was going to pop off, but it's just
• 54:06
  a matter of like when. And I I I was kind of chuckling
• 54:10
  like like when I finished the episode, I thought I might have
• 54:12
  here posted on Twitter, Twitter, Just talking about like.
• 54:15
  I I did not go into that episode.
• 54:18
  Whatever I hear from people who had already watched, whatever
• 54:22
  could not prepare me for what I actually saw.
• 54:25
  But I I kind of made like, like a little joke tweet about like
• 54:28
  hours not expecting to see like a shame from Walking Dead versus
• 54:33
  Saul Goodman at Christmas dinner.
• 54:38
  That cast was packed, bro. Sarah Paulson, John Maloney.
• 54:44
  Why they brought everybody into that one episode.
• 54:47
  I was like, bro. I was like, this is like when
• 54:51
  because Ron was telling me he was like, this is like one of
• 54:53
  the best episodes. And then when people just kept
• 54:55
  every time they show up on screen, I was like, bro, they
• 54:58
  have everybody in this episode. Episode can't fail regardless
• 55:02
  because the actors in it is just too good.
• 55:05
  They probably probably always competing with each other to
• 55:07
  have the best stuff going on because like when you know, when
• 55:11
  John Maloney pops up on the screen, I'm like bro, they got
• 55:14
  Chicken Little in here. Like I was like they have
• 55:17
  everybody in here because he plays Chicken Little.
• 55:21
  He play on Captain Underpants like he does.
• 55:25
  Yeah, he does a lot of different like voice acting.
• 55:28
  Well, he was Big John in the new Pussy Boots movie.
• 55:33
  He plays a lot of different boys and then he's a stand up.
• 55:35
  He's a stand up comedian too, but.
• 55:38
  Bro, he real good. And then Sarah Paulson from.
• 55:42
  Bro, she bodied it. American Horror Stories and
• 55:45
  stuff like that. Like they have everybody in that
• 55:49
  episode. And I was like, bro, this is
• 55:50
  like, great. It was so good.
• 55:54
  But like, like you said, with the ringer and the timer and
• 55:57
  everything like that, I'm like, is she going to burn something
• 56:00
  or is she going to burn her hand?
• 56:01
  Like, I didn't know what was going to go on.
• 56:03
  And then she was slowly snapping on her daughter.
• 56:06
  She was like, stop asking me if I'm all right.
• 56:08
  Like bro, she sugar literally said at the beginning of the
• 56:13
  episode. I'm not going to ask her.
• 56:16
  I'm not going to say it. And then the first chance that
• 56:19
  she get to do it, I'm like bro. And she was doing it every time
• 56:23
  she said, you OK? You OK?
• 56:25
  Like bro, leave me alone. Like like there's nothing else
• 56:30
  that's going to make her make her more mad than you just
• 56:33
  continuing and doing that. And the same thing over and over
• 56:36
  when you said that you wasn't going to do it.
• 56:39
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm trying to think.
• 56:42
  I'm trying to think, 'cause we touched on all day, going over
• 56:47
  to Copenhagen, big episode 6, the various characters
• 56:50
  developments and stuff. I'm trying feel like it's
• 56:55
  something else major I'm forgetting but so just drove
• 57:05
  out. So with Marcus and Sydney, like
• 57:09
  you can see that relationship kind of.
• 57:11
  Yeah. And then, like, it looked like
• 57:13
  they had ended up like, after they made it awkward, they ended
• 57:16
  up like kind of bumping heads for a little bit, you know what
• 57:20
  I'm saying? And then finally Marcus was
• 57:22
  like, are you mad at me? Like he had to finally like, ask
• 57:24
  her and stuff like that. In the middle of everything
• 57:27
  going on in the middle of the shift, I was like, man, it's
• 57:29
  going to be interesting to see how not every play because
• 57:32
  eventually, I mean, I mean, I feel like we all know that
• 57:35
  they're going to get together eventually.
• 57:37
  Do you? Think so?
• 57:39
  It seemed like she curved them right.
• 57:43
  I think that they going to get together because I do think she
• 57:48
  curved them because she curved them because she's the manager.
• 57:51
  She's in a management position, she don't want to be and you
• 57:54
  know some people don't like to mess with Co workers and stuff,
• 57:58
  so but like they always on the phone all day, every day and
• 58:01
  stuff well. On space comment and stuff and
• 58:03
  it just. Yeah, yeah.
• 58:05
  But I also felt like she had her.
• 58:10
  Carmi was kind of like cool and stuff like that, like as best
• 58:14
  friends. But then underneath the table I
• 58:17
  was like. I want to nip that in the book
• 58:20
  like I. I'm the only person who didn't
• 58:23
  see, like them being like, romantic with each other.
• 58:27
  I didn't think, I didn't see. It I didn't get those vibes at
• 58:31
  all, bro. I didn't get those vibes until
• 58:33
  they were underneath the table screwing in that leg and then it
• 58:36
  kind of like. Even then, I was like, there's
• 58:39
  just really some. Close friends.
• 58:42
  Something was weird about that. I mean, close friends sometimes,
• 58:44
  even though they're close friends, they just somehow have
• 58:47
  an awkwardness and that it could have just been an awkward
• 58:49
  situation. But like them being under that
• 58:51
  table, I was like, something is weird about this, and I think
• 58:55
  she wanted to tell him about Marcus in that situation, but I
• 58:59
  was lying. She didn't bring it up for a
• 59:01
  reason, because maybe she might. You know what I'm saying?
• 59:04
  Maybe. Maybe Carmen don't have a crush
• 59:07
  on her, but she has a crush on him because of admiration.
• 59:11
  I don't know. I don't.
• 59:12
  I don't know at all. You know what I'm saying, but
• 59:13
  just throwing things out there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 'cause she
• 59:17
  might just have like an admiration for him because he
• 59:19
  was such a good chef. That that that is true as well
• 59:22
  as kind of like the I guess kind of like like her attitude
• 59:27
  towards Claire too. I can kind of see like two sides
• 59:30
  to it to where like. Part of me was like was like are
• 59:33
  you jealous But also part but but part of me also feels like
• 59:38
  that she also saw like when Rob said the distraction of like OK
• 59:44
  I see that you're may be happy but you know you you're ditching
• 59:49
  work stuff for the important work stuff for her and so so it
• 59:54
  was some some stuff like that mentioning the the final episode
• 59:59
  where Marcus and. And Sidney or whatever.
• 1:00:04
  I also laughed at lot like because like because of all the
• 1:00:06
  chaos going on in that moment or whatever, the constant, hey,
• 1:00:10
  where's Josh Or wherever, whatever.
• 1:00:13
  And then finding out like, hey Marcus, go go see if you can
• 1:00:15
  find out whatever. And it's like, are you serious?
• 1:00:19
  Are you serious? Are you smoking crack?
• 1:00:22
  Girl, what scared me was when Sydney went out there and Marcus
• 1:00:25
  was back there with him. I said, oh, I know damn well
• 1:00:28
  Marcus ain't back there doing cracking with him, 'cause I was
• 1:00:33
  like, whoa, whoa, whoa. I was like.
• 1:00:35
  I know this is. Not going to happen because she
• 1:00:37
  went out there, that he was standing behind the gate too.
• 1:00:40
  And I was like, Oh no, no, no, no.
• 1:00:43
  My my mind didn't go there. Like my mind thought that oh
• 1:00:49
  dude might have might be tweaking and end up hurting
• 1:00:53
  somebody when they went out there because because of how,
• 1:00:56
  how because you know because we know with this show chaos
• 1:01:01
  happens in such a crazy way to work.
• 1:01:04
  Sometimes it's a funny thing or sometimes it's like, ha ha ha,
• 1:01:07
  oops, I stabbed you, you know, so So I'm like, I'm like, OK is
• 1:01:13
  all do going to be tweaking because his job is now being
• 1:01:16
  threatened. He's like, you know what?
• 1:01:18
  Well, if y'all going to fire me, well I'm going to kill you.
• 1:01:23
  Something like. That so you know.
• 1:01:26
  Because I think I'm going to have to fire.
• 1:01:32
  You think bro? You smoking right?
• 1:01:35
  You have to. Because in that scene, that man
• 1:01:38
  was. Cutting him carry.
• 1:01:40
  He was cutting him carry as fast in the month.
• 1:01:42
  I was like Jesus Christ. His man was going through all of
• 1:01:45
  that stuff. You got to go to hard route.
• 1:01:48
  You can't go soft. You got to go.
• 1:01:51
  You got to go cry. You can't go.
• 1:01:52
  Cocaine, please. Like so we can hide it like you.
• 1:01:58
  Girl, I was like yo, but then but then I was like OK, this
• 1:02:04
  makes sense because bro, he was cutting everything so quick and
• 1:02:07
  so fast. Bro, everybody was like, he's a.
• 1:02:11
  Great order. Yeah, he's a.
• 1:02:14
  Great worker, but another kind of funny, funny moment I
• 1:02:18
  remember too was a little bit earlier on when Carmi and Richie
• 1:02:24
  had to kind of like keep basically keep doing favors to
• 1:02:26
  pay pay back, uncle or whatever when they when they did the the
• 1:02:31
  kids birthday party or whatever. Oh my God, the birthday.
• 1:02:35
  Party. He drugged all the kids.
• 1:02:37
  He put Xanax in the freaking punch, bro.
• 1:02:41
  It was kicked, bro. The funniest thing, bro.
• 1:02:43
  Like folks would just be talking, having a regular
• 1:02:46
  conversation, But then in the background, these kids just just
• 1:02:50
  knocked out What? Was crazy.
• 1:02:53
  Was that like Carly? He was like, I think we
• 1:02:56
  accidentally drugged all the kids, but in his head I think he
• 1:03:01
  deep down new. Bro, why did you put this in
• 1:03:05
  there? Well, no, it it was Richie.
• 1:03:07
  Because remember when we got there, Richie Adam.
• 1:03:11
  Yeah 'cause I cause 'cause which which part of me felt like
• 1:03:16
  something bad was going to happen.
• 1:03:17
  I'm glad it went. Nothing super crazy, but like
• 1:03:20
  part of me thought that maybe, oh, he left a freaking bottle of
• 1:03:24
  pill sitting. Now kids going to be running
• 1:03:27
  around, one of the kids going to get it, you know because I
• 1:03:30
  because because as we've seen this show can't go super dark
• 1:03:35
  sometimes and stuff, whatever. So I'm like, I'm like, oh man,
• 1:03:38
  please don't let a kid die because of his negligence,
• 1:03:42
  whatever. But luckily now they just got
• 1:03:44
  knocked out and went to sleep. Same thing with the with the the
• 1:03:47
  brother-in-law whatever his doofus, but fell asleep and they
• 1:03:52
  had to give him a car ride home. Pete, I think, yeah.
• 1:03:55
  Pete Yeah, He's like, he's like, thanks guys for making me, I
• 1:03:59
  feel like part of the family or whatever he's saying.
• 1:04:03
  Bro, he's like the Jerry of this show.
• 1:04:07
  Meg Bro. Meg from Family Guy, Jerry from
• 1:04:12
  Rick and Morty. Like they always got that one
• 1:04:15
  character that everybody hates. What was the Toby from The
• 1:04:18
  Office from? The.
• 1:04:20
  Office. Yeah, he's the he's the
• 1:04:22
  character that they all hate. And it's like bro, why?
• 1:04:27
  Oh, another was funny was when Ulster was, like, telling Carmen
• 1:04:35
  that she was pregnant. And then the wall feels so the
• 1:04:39
  wall feels like everybody heard it.
• 1:04:41
  He's like, congratulations, I knew.
• 1:04:45
  It. I knew it.
• 1:04:50
  The character that we didn't really touch on, I don't even
• 1:04:54
  know his name. The the I think he's like
• 1:04:57
  African, the older, the older man Ebra.
• 1:05:01
  Ebra. Ebra.
• 1:05:02
  Ebra Yeah. So with that character, I wish
• 1:05:07
  we could get like a deeper dive into him a little bit because
• 1:05:11
  like, he's been there since episode one, and I feel like we
• 1:05:14
  should get a deeper dive into him.
• 1:05:16
  But they haven't really given us much outside of like him, like
• 1:05:20
  getting better at reading and things of that nature.
• 1:05:24
  So I was actually like a deeper diving him and I know him and
• 1:05:26
  Tina kind of like have like a good relationship and stuff
• 1:05:29
  like. That yeah, they were close, bro.
• 1:05:32
  That man, that man, he he he went to school.
• 1:05:34
  I was like, bro. I was.
• 1:05:36
  I was rooting for him. I was like, you got it, you got
• 1:05:38
  it. I said please do not give up.
• 1:05:41
  And he dipped. He was like, he was like forget
• 1:05:44
  this. But it was.
• 1:05:46
  But like I said it was doping. Season two man's went on.
• 1:05:52
  YouTube University And then you just learn how to do all that
• 1:05:57
  other stuff, which was super dope.
• 1:05:58
  It was it was it was really cool to see.
• 1:06:01
  Yeah, I I I wouldn't be surprised because of how we've
• 1:06:04
  seen of how they did the characters through these first
• 1:06:08
  two seasons of maybe him and some of the other ones get their
• 1:06:12
  ton of shine. And and season three because I
• 1:06:15
  because I because I even like wet because because you know,
• 1:06:19
  I'm pretty sure I don't know about y'all.
• 1:06:20
  But I felt that same way about Marcus after season one, where
• 1:06:23
  I'm like, OK, we didn't really get to learn much.
• 1:06:25
  And then they was like, they was like, alright, well, y'all going
• 1:06:28
  to learn and start, start the freaking season with the mom in
• 1:06:31
  the hospital and I'm like, I'm like, wow, OK, I wanted to
• 1:06:35
  learn, but. Bro, that's a good point.
• 1:06:38
  Then, Speaking of that, in the Season 2 finale, his phone, His
• 1:06:43
  mom, I think his mom passed away probably.
• 1:06:47
  She was trying to Yeah, man, that was super sad.
• 1:06:50
  Yeah, 'cause? Cause, 'cause like during the
• 1:06:52
  chaos, this phone got knocked off.
• 1:06:54
  And then, like, he says, like all the missed calls.
• 1:06:56
  And then the text is like, hey, answers about your mom or there.
• 1:07:00
  And it's like, come on, wait, Which?
• 1:07:02
  Now I think about it. Oh no, I'm sorry.
• 1:07:06
  Oh no. I all about to say like, if
• 1:07:08
  hopefully, hopefully. It's not bad news, but it's
• 1:07:11
  like, either way it just dawned on me.
• 1:07:14
  They bookmarked the season with starting off with one of the
• 1:07:18
  first shots of season 2 was the mom.
• 1:07:19
  I'm in the hospital bed and then one of the last shots we see is
• 1:07:23
  the missed calls and stuff, whatever.
• 1:07:25
  So I'm like, I'm like, oh wow, why y'all bookmark the season?
• 1:07:29
  Yes. Backs.
• 1:07:30
  And they were saying that she could die at any moment.
• 1:07:33
  And they said it's been four years.
• 1:07:35
  So that's what you could be, you know what I'm saying, to still
• 1:07:39
  live after four years. When they say you could die at
• 1:07:41
  any moment, it's like. Yeah.
• 1:07:43
  Or or yeah, or she might have made like a It might have missed
• 1:07:50
  something. Good.
• 1:07:51
  They're like, yo, yeah. So that's what I'm thinking.
• 1:07:55
  Maybe. I definitely hope so.
• 1:07:57
  Because that was like, bro, He got all of these missed calls,
• 1:08:01
  missed text messages. I'm like, no, but then yeah, I I
• 1:08:05
  literally just, I I I just thought of it.
• 1:08:08
  It was probably something good. They're like, yo, we need to
• 1:08:11
  like. We need to talk to you right now
• 1:08:14
  and tell you this good news probably.
• 1:08:16
  So we just got to wait and see in the third season.
• 1:08:20
  I hope so. But Maris, I think, I don't
• 1:08:25
  think there's too much else I wanted to dive into.
• 1:08:28
  Did y'all have anything else I wanted to highlight and stuff
• 1:08:31
  before we wrap it up? I don't.
• 1:08:35
  Think so. I think we really touched on
• 1:08:37
  everything. Oh, another like I I guess a
• 1:08:41
  great moment was when they finally got the gas to work and
• 1:08:45
  that like they was doing the countdown.
• 1:08:48
  They all was kind of like nervous and stuff like that.
• 1:08:51
  And then when he finally said, when he said to Carvey already
• 1:08:54
  had his eyes closed, like, yes, we did it.
• 1:08:56
  I. Thought that was really.
• 1:08:57
  I thought that was really dope too.
• 1:08:58
  And it's like, congratulations, you got a restaurant that was
• 1:09:01
  like a restaurant. That was a powerful moment, too.
• 1:09:05
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:09:06
  And I'm sorry, go, go go ahead, Ron.
• 1:09:09
  No. No, I wouldn't say that.
• 1:09:12
  OK. OK.
• 1:09:12
  Well, I'm about to say just just kind of like, like like like
• 1:09:15
  looking forward to to for season three because, like, because
• 1:09:21
  it's kind of kind of like looking like the structure of
• 1:09:23
  how they've done stuff so far with, you know, the the kind of
• 1:09:27
  like introductory chaos everybody trying to get figure
• 1:09:29
  out, figure out each other, get to learn each other and stuff.
• 1:09:32
  And then see season one ended with a saving grace moment of,
• 1:09:37
  hey, we found this money, all right, we can close up the shop
• 1:09:40
  and try to fix, try to fix this situation, whatever.
• 1:09:47
  And then season 2 is them kind of rebuilding and going through
• 1:09:56
  the trials and tribulations of everybody training or going on
• 1:09:59
  their own personal journeys to get better and while the
• 1:10:03
  restaurant is getting worked on the stuff, whatever.
• 1:10:05
  But then the season kind of ending game tragedy more or less
• 1:10:10
  because. But yeah, so so yeah, so just
• 1:10:18
  just seeing like how the season just kind of ended in just, you
• 1:10:23
  know, seemingly good, but then everything just bubbling over
• 1:10:27
  and you know the the door handle breaking the the fallout between
• 1:10:31
  Karmi and Claire. Claire and all the other stuff
• 1:10:38
  in between. So I'm just hoping like like you
• 1:10:43
  know, season three that maybe we can sort of see some more
• 1:10:48
  positive things come across, Whatever.
• 1:10:50
  Oh yeah, and and I personally, I hope as much as I'm enjoying the
• 1:10:56
  show, whatever, I also hope they don't drag things on for a
• 1:11:01
  super, super, super long trying to do like 5-6 seven seasons.
• 1:11:05
  Yeah, you know, I I hope that's that they may be kind of, I, I
• 1:11:12
  don't know do y'all feel like they might maybe be able to come
• 1:11:14
  up with a storyline to like wrap it up in season three or do you
• 1:11:18
  think maybe three and. Four, I think.
• 1:11:21
  Like now, like the show's gotten, like, super popular.
• 1:11:25
  Now like it's it's. It's super.
• 1:11:27
  It's super, like super popular now.
• 1:11:30
  So I think I can see this going like Four Seasons, tops.
• 1:11:35
  Four Seasons or five tops. Yeah, I'm about to say it's
• 1:11:38
  going to go. 555. Maybe 6, because they are 30
• 1:11:42
  minutes, thirty minutes to 45 minutes episodes, and every now
• 1:11:45
  and then you get an hour joint with them being 30 minute
• 1:11:48
  episodes. They might, you know what I'm
• 1:11:51
  saying? Stretch it to about six seasons
• 1:11:53
  or seven seasons. Just because, like 30 minutes,
• 1:11:55
  you got more time to tell the story.
• 1:11:57
  That's a great point to Yeah, yeah, I can.
• 1:12:00
  I can't see it going past five or six.
• 1:12:03
  Though, Yeah, because that, Yeah, because right now the
• 1:12:06
  restaurant is just now open. So now we going to deal with
• 1:12:10
  them adjusting to the life of like fine dining in a sense, you
• 1:12:15
  know what I'm saying? And so you'll get that whole
• 1:12:17
  season and Carmine, probably Carmine probably be trying to
• 1:12:21
  get back with his girl throughout the whole season.
• 1:12:23
  Season three, yeah. Marcus is dealing with his mom,
• 1:12:27
  hopefully in, you know, whatever way it is.
• 1:12:30
  But then also what's her name, it's probably Sydney is probably
• 1:12:34
  going to be there for him, you know what I'm saying?
• 1:12:36
  So that's going to be developing and then the next season will be
• 1:12:41
  not only are they have a great, you know, restaurant, but now.
• 1:12:46
  You know what I'm saying? Especially with the show
• 1:12:47
  becoming more popular so you have more guest stars and stuff
• 1:12:50
  like that. So they'll have like these
• 1:12:52
  random people show up and be like top notch food critics.
• 1:12:56
  So I can see that for season four and then season five maybe
• 1:13:00
  wrap it up. So that's what I'm thinking.
• 1:13:03
  And and, yeah. And also we we have, yeah.
• 1:13:10
  I forgot about that. Maybe on the way we still got to
• 1:13:13
  know about what's going on with Carmen and Sugar's mom.
• 1:13:16
  Like we still got to get the back story of whatever happened
• 1:13:20
  to John Berkoff. Like they still got a lot of
• 1:13:23
  stuff that they can still flesh out as far as the storyline.
• 1:13:26
  So I could and if they are keeping it at 8 to 10 episodes.
• 1:13:31
  Because you know what I'm saying, they might mess around
• 1:13:32
  and do 12 or 14. But I hope not, bro.
• 1:13:35
  I hope it stays at at 10 episodes.
• 1:13:38
  I I I feel like that's perfect. That's literally perfect. 10
• 1:13:41
  episodes, 30 minutes. Like 45 minutes an hour maybe
• 1:13:48
  That's. That's perfect.
• 1:13:50
  For like, yeah. So yeah, I think that's.
• 1:13:53
  But yeah, I definitely think it. It'll probably go 4:00 to 5:00,
• 1:13:56
  yeah. It'll probably, it'll probably
• 1:13:58
  definitely go four to five. I can see it.
• 1:14:01
  It's like it's a lot of story that they got left to tell.
• 1:14:03
  And then they might even touch into a back story on Carmy
• 1:14:08
  actually working at the restaurant because most of the
• 1:14:10
  time we get quick flash. Show McHale, bro.
• 1:14:13
  That's another thing. He was going crazy, bro.
• 1:14:16
  He was talking bad to Carmy. I was like, damn Joe McHale,
• 1:14:20
  I've never seen you like this, but.
• 1:14:23
  Like. They might actually do a whole
• 1:14:25
  episode dedicated on to him being maybe an hour long like
• 1:14:29
  they did with. Flashback.
• 1:14:30
  Episodes. Yeah, an hour long flashback
• 1:14:32
  episode like they did with episode 6, where it's just him
• 1:14:36
  in the restaurant as a new new recruit or as one of the top
• 1:14:40
  chefs there. But he just, you know what I'm
• 1:14:43
  saying, not, you know, dealing with it so you can get.
• 1:14:46
  They got a lot more story that they can flesh out, but it's one
• 1:14:50
  of the things like you said, you don't want to stretch it out and
• 1:14:52
  it just be too long. Excessive.
• 1:14:55
  Yeah. Because because because the the,
• 1:14:56
  the, the, the thing that kind of made me think about, you know,
• 1:15:00
  them kind of hopefully getting to wrap it up as they see fit.
• 1:15:04
  Because there's another show that I fell in love with last
• 1:15:08
  year. I shout out to Airy from Sundary
• 1:15:11
  because she put me out to the show last year.
• 1:15:13
  Reservation dogs. I've heard about that.
• 1:15:17
  Same. Very good show, highly
• 1:15:19
  recommended. But that that one's about to
• 1:15:21
  wrap up with that. Yeah, I think.
• 1:15:24
  I think it'll be season three, if I remember.
• 1:15:26
  Season three? OK And that show?
• 1:15:29
  Go talk to mommy on. Hulu as well, yeah.
• 1:15:33
  Yeah, yeah. That, that that was on Hulu as
• 1:15:35
  well, Yeah. But FX-2?
• 1:15:38
  Yeah, yeah. FX, Hulu.
• 1:15:41
  Same thing. But, but yeah, so that that one,
• 1:15:43
  like I said, I think that one's I think it's season three maybe
• 1:15:47
  4. But but the point is, is that
• 1:15:50
  they're wrapping it up, whatever.
• 1:15:51
  And they're wrapping it up because that's what the writers
• 1:15:55
  and creators want to do so. It's 3 Rock.
• 1:16:02
  This one's coming up as three. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:16:04
  OK. And.
• 1:16:05
  It'll be the last season I think.
• 1:16:07
  I like that too, because. If you have a story and you
• 1:16:12
  already have an idea of what you're doing, don't let somebody
• 1:16:16
  else talk you into doing more seasons and then watering down
• 1:16:21
  your product. You know what I'm saying?
• 1:16:22
  I think I. So I do like the fact that like,
• 1:16:24
  OK, they like three seasons and that's all we get.
• 1:16:27
  Or something like that. Because once you stretch it out
• 1:16:30
  and keep doing it, now you. Lose that, like classic feeling
• 1:16:34
  of like this could have been a classic show, but you stretched
• 1:16:37
  it to season 8 for no reason or. Something.
• 1:16:39
  Yeah, bro, I hate when shows do that.
• 1:16:41
  Yeah, so I'm like, so I'm like, man, like, you definitely, if
• 1:16:45
  you already have an idea, wrap that show up and then do your
• 1:16:49
  next show. Because if you already knew that
• 1:16:52
  you was wrapping it up by Season 3, then you probably already
• 1:16:55
  have an idea on something else that you wanted to work on, you
• 1:16:58
  know what I'm saying? So yeah.
• 1:16:59
  I just. Do not overstay your welcome.
• 1:17:03
  Please don't. I hate when shows do that.
• 1:17:05
  So, yeah, that's perfectly sad. All right.
• 1:17:09
  So I guess with that, that'll bring us to the to the end of
• 1:17:11
  this very dope conversation. Like, like like, like we said,
• 1:17:17
  I've talked if if somehow used it to this whole thing, you
• 1:17:19
  still hadn't watched the show. I I appreciate you, but please
• 1:17:25
  go watch it for yourself. Because as as much as we delve
• 1:17:30
  into different things right from the show, whatever, there's
• 1:17:32
  still much more to see. And it's definitely something
• 1:17:35
  that that you need to watch and experience yourself.
• 1:17:39
  Because this is truly one of those dope, unexpected gems that
• 1:17:45
  like I said, I I am very happy that, you know, I came across my
• 1:17:49
  eyes on the timeline on Twitter and that and that I got to
• 1:17:54
  watch. And like I said, I'm glad I got
• 1:17:56
  to, you know, have y'all here with me to to have this
• 1:17:58
  discussion and stuff. But but also before we go, I'll
• 1:18:03
  let y'all plug if there's anything y'all want to shout
• 1:18:05
  out, you know, anything you're working on, social media, all
• 1:18:10
  that stuff, whatever. So I'm going to start with you,
• 1:18:13
  Rob J. Yeah, I'm going to let Steve do
• 1:18:16
  the inside the mind of a blur stuff.
• 1:18:18
  But hey, be sure to follow us on Twitter and stuff like that.
• 1:18:22

• 1:18:27
  here, man. You know that Rob and Rob
• 1:18:32
  connection is strong, bro. It's strong, yo, we have to
• 1:18:35
  stick. We got to stick together out
• 1:18:37
  here in these streets. Good.
• 1:18:39
  Now, man. Final thought, Brother Bear is
• 1:18:43
  one of my favorite shows of all time.
• 1:18:44
  Now it's easily in my top ten and y'all know I watch a lot of
• 1:18:49
  shows and brother. The bear is just absolutely
• 1:18:53
  incredible. I'm telling all of my friends to
• 1:18:55
  watch this show expeditiously. This show is really good, but
• 1:19:00
  you can follow me on Twitter at under score Rob J.
• 1:19:05
  Or if there is going to still be something called Twitter messing
• 1:19:09
  with this man Elon Bro. So you can also find I'm also a
• 1:19:15

• 1:20:05
  I love the Bear. I really enjoyed talking about
• 1:20:07
  it. And yeah, I'm going to let Steve
• 1:20:11
  talk about all the things inside the mind of the blurred.
• 1:20:15
  And the other things that he's doing because Steve is the goat
• 1:20:21
  and he's famous. Whoa, whoa, thanks there buddy.
• 1:20:27
  Now like Rob said, thank you Rob for letting us, you know, vibe
• 1:20:33
  out on here and do these reviews.
• 1:20:35
  I I look forward to just doing these reviews and stuff like
• 1:20:38
  that. How about, say, if you want to
• 1:20:39
  do a review for Warrior? Because season three start for
• 1:20:42
  that. I'm down to do I don't know if
• 1:20:44
  you ever watched Warrior. I haven't.
• 1:20:46
  I haven't watched it yet. I I I've been hearing about it a
• 1:20:48
  lot lately, so I I might have to put it on my list of of of
• 1:20:53
  things to check out. It's on HBO Max.
• 1:20:56
  The third season is just now starting that if you if you like
• 1:21:02
  action and then still got like the good storyline, like the
• 1:21:06
  storyline is crazy on there too. Like I think you would really
• 1:21:09
  enjoy that. But anyway.
• 1:21:12
  Shout out to the inside, the mind of a blur.
• 1:21:15
  You can follow us at the Blurred Mind Pod on Twitter.
• 1:21:19
  I think it's the Blurred Mind pod as well on Instagram and.
• 1:21:25
  Yeah, we actually have a panel at Dream Con Cartoons and
• 1:21:29
  Serial. We're going to be doing that.
• 1:21:33
  So if you guys want to pull up, well, you know what I'm saying.
• 1:21:36
  I really would appreciate if you guys pull up on Sunday at 1:30
• 1:21:41
  and warehouse something. Room 3.
• 1:21:44
  Workhouse, Room 3, Room 619. There you go.
• 1:21:49
  We got it, you know, That's why we got robbed, you know?
• 1:21:53
  And then I got Wait the Dead and Payback.
• 1:21:57
  Those stories are in development.
• 1:22:00
  Wait the Dead. It's live on Webtoons right now.
• 1:22:03
  Second issue will be dropping probably by August and then with
• 1:22:09
  Payback, I'm just going to let y'all know I'm just going to
• 1:22:12
  drop a whole volume instead of doing the other thing.
• 1:22:17
  Yeah. So I would just drop the whole
• 1:22:19
  volume instead of dropping chapter for chapter because
• 1:22:22
  there's something, there's another big idea I have for
• 1:22:24
  payback going forward. So that's what I think I'm going
• 1:22:27
  to do with that. But yeah, man, y'all going to
• 1:22:29
  follow me at SCOOP Steve 1428. And then I'm pretty sure if you
• 1:22:33
  find me on there, you can find me anywhere and then you can
• 1:22:36
  look into any of these things that I've been mentioning and
• 1:22:39
  talking about. But yeah, man.
• 1:22:41
  Once again, thank you for having me.
• 1:22:43

• 1:22:45
  Rob, I appreciate you. And I also want to say shout out
• 1:22:47
  to my home girl, Alexis. She's actually like, we watched
• 1:22:52
  pretty much all of the shows together.
• 1:22:54
  She actually got me to like she was like, Rob, you need to to
• 1:22:58
  watch the bear. I was like, all right, say Liz.
• 1:23:01

• 1:23:04
  stop. Literally.
• 1:23:06

• 1:23:12
  to say. I I might have to eventually
• 1:23:16
  create, create a playlist on YouTube.
• 1:23:19
  That's just Rob, Rob and Steve. Cause 'cause we've we, we've,
• 1:23:23

• 1:23:53
  like that because yeah, because yeah, we we've definitely,
• 1:23:56
  you've never been out here more than everybody and and I think
• 1:23:59
  at this point, Rob, you probably in second place now.
• 1:24:03
  Hey. Because yeah, yeah, so sounds
• 1:24:07
  good to me. But but yeah, so so As for
• 1:24:10
  myself, y'all know it's your boy daddy's talk.
• 1:24:14
  You can find me everywhere at Daddy's talk.
• 1:24:18
  Like I mentioned previously. Whatever.
• 1:24:21
  I've kind of changed up how I've done stuff recently.
• 1:24:24
  But but definitely look forward to more reviews and discussions
• 1:24:30
  both with individual guests on different topics but as well as
• 1:24:33
  different reviews like this because.
• 1:24:36
  I have kind of. I feel like I'm in the zone
• 1:24:40
  right now with some amazing stuff I have been watching over
• 1:24:44
  the last few months or whatever. Some stuff I've already got the
• 1:24:49
  reviews and stuff posted for like silo.
• 1:24:52
  I just post a review for that earlier today when I'm when
• 1:24:55
  we're recording. But I got other stuff that I'm
• 1:24:58
  sitting on that that's going to be coming out weeks, months from
• 1:25:01
  now. So like, I already review
• 1:25:03
  severance. Let's go.
• 1:25:06
  I still got to watch that too. Bro, that was super dope.
• 1:25:10
  Lupin, I watched that couple weeks ago.
• 1:25:13
  That was super dope. But I'm not dropping that until
• 1:25:16
  I think, I think, I think I scheduled that for October
• 1:25:19
  because that's when season three is coming.
• 1:25:21
  So I'm trying to time that with that and lots of other stuff.
• 1:25:25
  Like I said, I've, I've kind of like I said, I've kind of
• 1:25:28
  entered the zone and I've been watching so much good stuff to
• 1:25:32
  where I'm I'm just building up my catalog.
• 1:25:34
  For stuff to just post just down the road so I kind of give
• 1:25:38
  myself a little bit of a break so I'm not always scrambling
• 1:25:41
  trying to figure out stuff, whatever.
• 1:25:43
  So but anyways, thank you all so much for watching and or
• 1:25:47
  listening and until next time, y'all know I always in my show
• 1:25:52
