• 2:06
  Speaker 2: massive Marvel head.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I hate I don't want to say that
• 2:10
  Speaker 5: because this is a game show where I'm supposed to
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: know a lot about it. Sure, but Marvel is so
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: vast that I'm sure there's gonna be things I don't know.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: So I'm sorry everyone.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, everyone's gonna be so disappointed if you don't know things.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: But I'm a big fan.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: Nice, like just the films or the comics as well.
• 2:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I've been reading Marvel comics since I was probably
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: twelve ish thirteen. My friend Ben would sneak them into
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: my backpack and I would sneak them home, and I
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: would sometimes catch my mom trying to like flip through
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: them at night to see if I.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Should be reading them or not.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: Sure and I should not have been in her estimation.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Sure, Okay, that sounds very familiar to a regular panelist.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: Audray use a lot of media restrictions in your household.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Growing up as well, was Marvel restricted. All you will
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: find a Marvel.
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: I didn't know that comics existed, the amount of restriction
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: in my household. I did one time bring Twilight in
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: with the Chronicles of Narnia cover dust jacket over it
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: because people were reading it. But I feel like if
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: I would have had access to the concept of superheroes
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: in my youth, I would have been into it.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: But alas that did not happen.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: That did not happen.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, so we got kind of a balanced team.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: He has some knowledge coming from Johnny and some gumption.
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm very nervous about not knowing much or knowing
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: a lot, and she's very passionate about not knowing much.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Yes, I can help you learn how to come to
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: terms with the fact that you don't know shit. I
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: could help you with that.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: Fantastic.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: I think you'll make a great team, but uh, you
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: will need some opponents, some villains to fight against, maybe
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: older villains.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: We don't know. We'll find out.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: We'll find out. So please welcome. He is a longtime
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: collaborator of this show. But we're saying farewell. As this
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: is his final appearance for the time being, at least
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: until we reboot the original franchise in three years time
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: or something. Please give it a for og Team captain
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Jason winn.
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: And.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: He is an improviser, writer, stick horse, and co owner
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: of the theater we're currently in. So now's your chance
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: to steal the toilet paper while I've got him distracted.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: It's either gold mon wow, coming out of the gay.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Sorry, what's it? Keeper, I'll use that take. Welcome Jason,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Welcome Ethan. How are you both doing? Fantastic?
• 4:55
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: I'm also too many drinks in. I'm catching up nice
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: nice already.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: Some stuff between Johnny and Ethan here, I think I
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: know what the real rivalry of the episode is going
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: to be.
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: Ethan and I both hate each other and have a
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: secret team.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Do you want to talk about a secret team.
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: Starting round one?
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, don't worry if it helps, it's incredibly stupid. I
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: don't know about all that. You're not supposed to tell
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: me about the secret team? Surely. So my name is
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: Johnny and Ethan? Can I share this on?
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: Ethan's real name is Benjamin, my first and so we're
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: Johnny and ben like the human Torchu and the thing
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: from the Fantastic Four. So this was my wife's idea.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry I called it so.
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: No, no, no, her part, her part is relatively smart.
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: My part is stupid. Her idea was to cause the
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: Fantastic two. My idea was to call us the Fantastic two.
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: I think that's great, considering you're not on the same team.
• 6:06
  Speaker 6: Johnny texted me this, and we went back and forth
• 6:09
  Speaker 6: from like thirty minutes being like, what, we're not on
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: the same team's fantastic too?
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: Why? Hey, you want to be all right, I'm gonna
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: talk to an actual team here, Ethan. Are you a
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: fan of Marvel?
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: I'll be honest, I thought this episode was about the
• 6:31
  Speaker 6: marvelous Miss Maisel. No I did. I did grow up
• 6:38
  Speaker 6: reading old Marvel comics. Like my brother's ten years older
• 6:41
  Speaker 6: than me, so I inherited some old Marvel comics when
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: I was a kid, and then jumped on sort of
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: early two thousands into the movies. So I'm familiar with
• 6:50
  Speaker 6: MCU and weird old comics. But that's kind of about
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: it for me.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: Okay, MCU and we had old comics.
• 6:56
  Speaker 7: I like it.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: Well, what about you Jason.
• 6:58
  Speaker 7: If I lose this, I'm gonna have a mental breath. Don't. Yeah,
• 7:03
  Speaker 7: it's it's it's unfortunate and sad. You don't have to
• 7:05
  Speaker 7: call it away from retirement. Yeah damn it.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 7:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I grew up like before I could read, I
• 7:13
  Speaker 7: was like looking at comics, uh and just looking at
• 7:15
  Speaker 7: the r I like had the book drawing comics, the
• 7:19
  Speaker 7: Marvel Way to study that, watch the movies, spend lots
• 7:23
  Speaker 7: of money at comic con to meet celebrities who don't
• 7:26
  Speaker 7: give a shit about me.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: I'm so into this, so into this, fantastic, fantastic all right,
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: it seems like both hands that's going to be a
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: recurring bit. Now I'm not in control of that.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Just dig the knife in deep, all.
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: Right, good stuff.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: We've got a couple of great teams here. But teams,
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: I've got some news for you. You've just been bitten
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: by a spider or shark, on nuclear bomb or whatever,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: and you've woken up with strange and unique powers. But
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: before you can get a handle on them, your government
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: forces you into a team with another powerful person to
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: solve America's problems. Despite the fact that's that job, the
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: media is going to need something to call your heroic duo,
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: so I'd like.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: Each pet to come up with a Marvel themed team name. Please,
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: let's start with Udra and Johnny.
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: What have you got now, dearest, Johnny sent me what
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: I can only describe as a novel prior.
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: To this, before you go, I love Marvel comics so deeply,
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: and I want you to know that as I was
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: writing these it pained me.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: It took a bit of your soul write all of
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: these puns.
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, so I did receive what I will describe as
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: a novel, and some of this space is taken up
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: by the fact that he did provide what it was
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: a pun based on, which is very considerate.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: So thank you, Thank you.
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: I'm going to forgive you for trying to form a
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: team with another team.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: So I'm thinking we can like rattle through some of these.
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: We can see how people feel about them and like decide.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: What the vibe is. Yeah, great, sounds great?
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: He yes, So I'm going to assume that people know
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: what the property is. Do we feel comfortable.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: To explain for most of them? Yeah?
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: And if not, just assume it's wordplay. First off, we got.
• 9:18
  Speaker 8: Sex men, nice one and done.
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: So there's Hordra or Humpdra nice, yeah, okay.

• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Me and me and Jason.

  Speaker 5: Booby or Captain Audre and Fucky.

• 10:37
  Speaker 3: the end director. Yeah yeah, what else? Instead of cloak
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: and dagger, we could be clitting dicker.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: That's fun.
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: I like the idea of making that say that over
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: and over. No, okay, maybe it's for Jen's sake, so
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: maybe Avenge Horse? What what? How are you feeling? What's

  Speaker 5: the Defenders, the Dickbenders.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: You happy with that ultra Yeah, Jenn, are you happy
• 11:11

  Speaker 5: you want to know the other ones, see me after
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: the show.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: But let's find out who the dick Benders will be
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: facing Ethan Jason.
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: I did. I didn't see his brough. Neither of us
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: thought about this at all.
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, over to you and you can.
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: I have a list. It's not a good list.
• 11:37
  Speaker 7: So I have the Pike Speak Avengers because there's a
• 11:40
  Speaker 7: couple of regional Avengers.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: Seems aparently it's not horny enough.
• 11:45
  Speaker 7: The only problem I have I have America's ass Guardians.
• 11:50
  Speaker 7: That's two references to mc U. But I had my
• 11:54
  Speaker 7: my favorite was the Uphill ice Skaters because in the
• 11:57
  Speaker 7: movie Blade, my favorite line from that is, some motherfucker's
• 12:01
  Speaker 7: always trying to ice skate a pill. And I think
• 12:03
  Speaker 7: that's just iconic, and I use it in a daily basis,
• 12:06
  Speaker 7: daily follow up questions about some motherfuckers are just trying
• 12:12
  Speaker 7: to ice skate a pill.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: We've been friends since probably twenty fifteen, and I've never
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: heard you say.
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: It's an inner monologue.
• 12:21
  Speaker 7: It's on a white it's on a yellow like box
• 12:23
  Speaker 7: that you don't get to see shout that represents my thoughts.
• 12:27
  Speaker 6: My only contribution to this. My suggestion would be Batman.
• 12:33
  Speaker 6: It's a dynamic duo. Yeah, yeah, that's wrong. Yeah, that's
• 12:36
  Speaker 6: tron thank you.
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: The prop that's not at all relates to the moment. Yeah,
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: just put Batman and Robin. Yeah, yeah, side which one wich?
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: I think we're going with Batman and.
• 12:48
  Speaker 6: Hell Yeah, it's horny in a way.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we call the Dick Venders, yes, versus Batman and Robin.
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: All right, and just before we continue, I want to
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: hype up the mystery prize that our team will win.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: What could it be? No expense has been spent. All right.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: If you're listening to this and thinking Marvel's Batman, right,
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: stole my joke, don't worry his order with a little segment.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: We like to call passing knowledge more.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: Like assing knowledge?
• 13:26
  Speaker 6: Am I?
• 13:27
  Speaker 7: Right?
• 13:28
  Speaker 9: Yeah?
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I.
• 13:30
  Speaker 7: Guess we should have been Captain American fucking Barnes. What so?
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: Marvel is an American media company that makes comic books, films, animation,
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: video games, merch and an absolute shit ton of money.
• 13:47
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: Originally founded in nineteen thirty nine as Timely Productions, it
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: became Marvel Comics understan Lee in the nineteen sixties, and
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: I really connect to that because my grandma was also
• 13:59
  Speaker 4: frequently under stan Lee in the nineteen sixties.
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: Hey, she was an original dick Bender.
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: It's a family name, and if you make fun of it,
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: you're an asshole. Marvel Comics soon became known for stories
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: of superheroes who also had rich, everyday lives, you know,
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: and thus Marvel invented the work life balance. Marvel Studios
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: launched the Marvel Cinematic Universe in two thousand and eight
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: with iron Man, creating one of the most successful film
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: franchises of all time. Film franchises of all time, Thanks
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: for the clean Reid.
• 14:40
  Speaker 7: Thank you.
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: It also proved that I'd still want to punch a
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: billionaire in the face even if they were hot.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: In two thousand and nine, Disney acquired Marvel.
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: Helping to fuel their goals of global domination, I mean
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: global market shares. Through the thirty seven Marvel film's character
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: are such a Spider Man, Captain, Marvel, Black Widow, iron Man,
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: Black Panther four, and the Hulk have become household names.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: If that house was full of fucking.
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: Nerds, right right, let's play Pandemonia.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: Thank you, Audra.
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: All Right, just before we get to today's games, I've
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: asked each player to bring in a muse, something that
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: inspires them or something they love from this particular fandom.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: Marvel is inspiring to me because they have the audacity
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: to make the same thing over and over again, something
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: that this show very much depends on.
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: So thank you Marvel. Jason. We'll start with you. What's
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: inspiring you from the world of Marvin L. Marvel, Marvel,
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: Captain Marvel.
• 15:43
  Speaker 7: The thing that's inspiring me about Marvel comics and comics
• 15:45
  Speaker 7: in general is small business. My local combook shop. So
• 15:50
  Speaker 7: my local comb book shop here is Escape Velocity. I
• 15:53
  Speaker 7: think you should always support local businesses, and I don't
• 15:57
  Speaker 7: own a single combook that hasn't come from a local
• 15:59
  Speaker 7: com book shop or flea market or something like that.
• 16:03
  Speaker 7: Fuck Amazon. Yeah, it's inspired me so much that I
• 16:06
  Speaker 7: brought gift cards as prizes here where you can shop
• 16:09
  Speaker 7: and get your first combooks or continue combooks from Escape Philosophy.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, we'll be handing those out in round two
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: for audience members who submitted superhero names. If you want
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: to admit to the superhero names you submit it. Thank you, Jason.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: That's very inspiring. I love that support local business. We're
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: doing it right now. Even what's inspiring you from the
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: world of novel.
• 16:32
  Speaker 6: I just love how you can be, like Hella, past
• 16:35
  Speaker 6: your prime. Keep on trucking, you know. Oh that's it.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 16:46
  Speaker 6: Sorry, I own this small business of this theater, but
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: I have nothing inspiring to add.
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: Well, that is inspiring. And look, Ethan, are you implying
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: that you're past your prime?
• 16:56
  Speaker 7: Hell yeah, as a failed business owner, you inspired me brother,
• 17:02
  Speaker 7: living the dream.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: Well, Ethan, keep on trucking. That's what Robin would say.
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: Very inspiring stuff.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: I sense the Batman themes coming from this side of
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: the room. Okay, let's move on over to your opponents,
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: the the dick Benders. H Johnny, what's inspiring you from
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: the world novel?
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: So, based on what Ethan just said, I'm worried I
• 17:27

• 17:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah, this is Brian Michael Bendis's and Alex mcleive's Moonnight.
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: It's a phenomenal place to start if you want to
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: read comics. This was the first comic I ever bought
• 18:08
  Speaker 5: with my own money, and I bought the actual books
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: from a store, like Jason said, And then there was
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: a time in my life where I was just too
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: Christian to read comics, so I got rid of them,
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: and so I no longer have those original copies, but
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: I bought like the set when I came to my senses.
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: And yes, if you see the names Bendis and Malieve together,
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: their art and their their work together as as writers
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: and artists is just like stunning.
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: Their their Daredevil run was like mind blowing. So that's awesome.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: It's great to be inspired by your favorite artists. That's
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: how amused should go. Thank you, Jonny. Yes, and last,
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: but not least, oder, what's inspiring you from the world
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: of novel?
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: I am inspired by superheroes like Scarlet, Witch, Black Widow,
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: like Gomora, and just these incredible people who had so
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: much power and like so much capability, but more than superhero,
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: they fulfilled a more important role as the token woman.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: And that's really.
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: Inspiring to me in the current landscape we can see, and.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: I'm really hoping that that's gonna.
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: Push me forward to victory as a teammate on the
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: Dick Benders.
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: Beautiful stuff.
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: I think Dick Bender is very pro woman, right, yeah, yeah, dicks.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: As of your mouth, it.
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: Doesn't sound so pro woman.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I won't say it anymore.
• 19:53
  Speaker 9: We're bending those dicks.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Please spit out my drakes, your assholes.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: And with that chance, shall we play some games? All right,
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: Let's listen to the police scanner, answer the call to action,
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: and swing our way into round one. Round one is
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: called promo battle. Is everyone familiar with the concept of
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: promos in professional wrestling? Is this a familiar concept you guys?
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, say angry thing.
• 20:37
  Speaker 6: Bone size, I'm going to you for three minutes.
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: And to that effect. Yes.
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: In this game, in turns, I will ask one player
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: to lower their head and close their eyes, and you'll
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: be able to see and make sure that they're doing that.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: They will be our guesser. I will then show everyone
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: else in the room the name of a Marvel character.
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: Their teammate will then cut a thirty second wrestling promo
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: on this character as though they are their opponents in
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: an upcoming wrestling match. It's then up to the guesser
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: to correctly guess the character for a point. Do we
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: understand the game?
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: We're the enemy? Yeah, we like trash talking? Where the

  Speaker 7: I only speak bon sa.
• 21:33
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: So we're going to play two passes of this, first
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: past pretty mainstream characters and then the second past whatever
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: name seemed funny to me on the Wikipedia page. So
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: we'll see how this goes. So, first up, it is
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: going to be Johnny guessing. So Johnny, could you close
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: your eyes, lower your head, that sort of thing while
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: everyone else in the room sees the name of the character. Okay,
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: we'll see if the groans give any clues. Ordrew, you
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: know that character?
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: Are you ready?

  Speaker 6: and I know this because a lot of it. Yeah,
• 36:00
  Speaker 6: quote quote unquote art Jeff the shark that close Jeff something, Jeff.
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: Give it to You did leave out the one word
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: that Jason did say, which you're not allowed to do
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: during the land Shark.
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I was kind last time. No point.
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: Justice, Yeah that's fair. Hey you guys, that was so cool.
• 36:21
  Speaker 5: But I'm just said you didn't get a point.
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, so.
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: Sad and with ultra sadness. That is the end of
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: round one. Producer Jen, can you please defrost? The latest
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: scores for us Dick Benders are on two points?
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah what.
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: A point?
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: All right?
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, points up. Good golly, Batman, that's a lot
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: of points because it doesn't matter.
• 36:52
  Speaker 6: It's already not not in the wheelhouse Robin's famous catchphrase,
• 36:57
  Speaker 6: good golly, miss Batman.
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: All right, on to round two. Round two is called
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: pitch It.
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: It's the game where I ask our players to take
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: on the roles of junior media executives to pitch ideas.
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: To me, a senior media executive. It's got my forehead wrinkles.
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: But what will they be pitching.
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: I'm not doing a Kevin Figgy voice. Throughout the evening,
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: members of our audience have submitted the names of brand
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: new superheroes, heroes that don't exist yet. I will draw
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: a name for each team, and then each team will
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: have sixty seconds to pitch their superhero and then Old
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: k Figs and the audience will decide which one we
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: thought was best. So it's head to head pitching, like
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: when Iron Man and Captain America went head to head
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: in that film.
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: I didn't watch, Roger did, and it was on a
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: certain orange sight because of the art.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so they became friends at the end.
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: All right, And at the end of the round, our
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: panel will decide what their favorite superhero names were that
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: were drawn, and you guys will get some vouchers to
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: escape velocity comments. Yeah, all right, So I'm gonna pick
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: a superhero for each team. Here, Udra and Johnny, you
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: have the the Gerbil Gobbler. This is the name of
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: your hero, which will be pitched directly against Freeze ray Woman.
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: The Gerbil Gobbler and Freeze ray Woman. You can use
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: your minute however you want between your team. If you
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: want one person to take the lead in the other
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: person to be a hype man. K Figs doesn't mind.
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: I enjoy this persona.
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: Unbothered.
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: Okay, so we're gonna start with making the pitch for
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: the for the next hit superhero to be.
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: The Jebel Gubbler. You guys, ready, Benny take it away.
• 39:03
  Speaker 5: So we start on a crisp field of grass, and
• 39:07
  Speaker 5: superhero movies never start that way. We're trying to do
• 39:09
  Speaker 5: something different here, Kevin, trying to do something outside of
• 39:12
  Speaker 5: the box. There's a Gerbil running through the field and
• 39:16
  Speaker 5: then a scary man just grabs it and eats it up.
• 39:23
  Speaker 4: It's an interesting take on We don't necessarily know immediately
• 39:27
  Speaker 4: if this person is going to be the hero of
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: our story, so it can tackle some really complex things.
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: But in this narrative, Yeah, but they will be the
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: hero though. Yes, we want you to know that.
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: Okay, we want you to know that, but we don't
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: want the audience to know that they will be the hero.
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: Okay, Yeah, and it's going to take some They're gonna
• 39:45
  Speaker 4: have to grow, they're gonna have to i don't know,
• 39:47
  Speaker 4: maybe lose a loved one, maybe come to love a
• 39:50
  Speaker 4: Gerbil that gets gobbled, and then they're gonna be a
• 39:52
  Speaker 4: little conflicted, okay, and then they're gonna have.
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: To save the world.
• 39:56
  Speaker 5: Basically, a giant Gerbil attacks New York and they kill it. WHOA,
• 40:01
  Speaker 5: that sounds dope, Yeah, it sounds dope.
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: That's the kind of thing.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: Kevin Figy says right, yeah, all right, Well I can't
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: make a decision yet because I need to hear the
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: other pitch of Freeze Ray Woman, Ethan Jason, you ready, sure, yeah,
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: if it's.
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: Okay with you, I think we should just play a
• 40:18
  Speaker 3: clip of the trailer for you right now. All right,
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: So here we go. It sounds now in a world
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: a woman is too warm.
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: I'm too warm.
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: But she's a woman in stem so she can make
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: any kind of ray she wants.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: What about a freeze right?
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: She cycled through a few other ideas before she got there, though.
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: What about a heat ray?
• 40:50
  Speaker 6: Wait?
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: No, it's too warm.
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: She got there pretty quick, anyway, she did.
• 40:58
  Speaker 6: She discovered the power of freezing stuff, the power of
• 41:03
  Speaker 6: freezing stuff and love.
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: Wow, frost you have never felt this way before. That's right,
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: it's a crossover with Hot Frosty.
• 41:15
  Speaker 6: She hooks up with the Snowman and then uses the
• 41:17
  Speaker 6: freezer ray to make a stick bigger five seconds. Yeah,
• 41:23
  Speaker 6: what did you say? That's yeah, there's the subplot on
• 41:34
  Speaker 6: Global Woman. Sorry, okay, good, but that came after the time. Yeah,
• 41:38
  Speaker 6: it doesn't count, It doesn't can't count it Well. Old
• 41:40
  Speaker 6: k Figs is tired from reading comics all day, so
• 41:43
  Speaker 6: I can't possibly make the decision of which was the best.
• 41:45
  Speaker 6: So please, as our audience, could you cheer if you
• 41:49
  Speaker 6: thought that the Gerbil Gobbler was the best here.
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: And now cheer if you thought Freeze ray Woman was
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: the best? All right, it's gonna be a pointing over
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: here that applauses made me so warm.
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: Because warms the Pacific Ocean.
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: All right, Let's let's have another couple of heroes. Let's
• 42:11
  Speaker 3: have another k Fike's hungry, he's hungry for superheroes. Yeah,
• 42:15
  Speaker 3: don't gobble.
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: Gobbler. Uh huh, gobbler gobbler.
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: We have for Udra and Johnny. We have Blenda Go,
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: Blenda Go, and that will be pitched against the existential crisis.
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: All right, And this time I think we'll start with
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: Jason and Ethan. So you guys ready take it away?
• 42:46
  Speaker 3: Me?
• 42:47
  Speaker 7: I did the left, all right? So what I mean,
• 42:51
  Speaker 7: we've got a lot of people who are sick and
• 42:52
  Speaker 7: tired of superhero movies. We gotta revive it, right, and
• 42:55
  Speaker 7: we gotta go outside the box. Well, we gotta also
• 42:59
  Speaker 7: grow with our audience, and I feel like they're feeling
• 43:01
  Speaker 7: a lot of things as of late, Kevin, I feel
• 43:03
  Speaker 7: like they're feeling like we're not performing where we are,
• 43:07
  Speaker 7: and I've got a new hero for you.
• 43:09
  Speaker 3: Take it away.
• 43:10
  Speaker 6: Existential Crisis is not a movie as much as it's
• 43:14
  Speaker 6: an experience. You just live it and have it, and
• 43:21
  Speaker 6: we charge people money for it. You walk into the theater,
• 43:26
  Speaker 6: nothing's playing, there's ushers sweeping up, and then you walk
• 43:30
  Speaker 6: out confused and alone.
• 43:33
  Speaker 7: We make the extra the end credit scene extra long
• 43:36
  Speaker 7: so that you can just get to stew with your
• 43:38
  Speaker 7: thoughts on what's going to happen next.
• 43:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it. Tees up a Wii. That's your time.
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: I love it.
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: I like the amount of like Marvel bullshit you had
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: that of just like mentioning the end credits thing. I
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: feel like every time I ask someone what was the
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: Marvel movie? Like, they just talk about the end. It's wild,
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: all right, But I can't make a decision. Yeah, because
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: we need to hear what Blender Girl is all about.
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: So Johnny Older, are you ready?
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: We're ready? Yes, take it away.
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: In this film, we answer the question will it blend? Yes,
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: it will. It wouldn't before, but now it will.
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: You'd be surprised, Kevin. Usually it blends.
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: Every now and then. Every now and then.
• 44:29
  Speaker 4: They need to bring bring in blender Girl because the
• 44:31
  Speaker 4: thing actually won't blend.
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: It's quite surprising.
• 44:34
  Speaker 5: She's got blended farms and a great work life balance.
• 44:41
  Speaker 5: You'd be surprised, Kevin, she's got a great work life balance.
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: This is really I think this really speaks to an
• 44:47
  Speaker 4: underserved market of women where they're just absolutely overworking themselves
• 44:52
  Speaker 4: and they need to see blender Girl solve some minor
• 44:56
  Speaker 4: problems with her super patent power. Yeah, it doesn't always.
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: Have to be that the world is ending. Sometimes you
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: can solve a small problem and it's validating. Kevin, you
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: be surprised how many women have blendish farms.
• 45:09
  Speaker 3: I'm not too, sir. I am serving. Like the tagline is,
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: you'd be surprised.
• 45:21
  Speaker 7: That there's so many women out there who are, like, God,
• 45:24
  Speaker 7: if only I could blend this smoothie up.
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: But I'm just shopping. It's slowly blender girls here. Oh
• 45:31
  Speaker 3: my god. I have a question. How many l's were
• 45:34
  Speaker 3: in the name. Was it a lot of l's or
• 45:36
  Speaker 3: I would say roughly between seven and eight. I don't
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: know if that was addressed seven ls. Let's let's not
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: have slander from this side.
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: Okay, she doesn't need to live up to your expectations.
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: Okay, all right, I don't know how this is gonna go,
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: but uh could could I get a cheer if you
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: enjoyed the pitch of the existential crisis?
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: And what about blender girls, it's gonna be points for
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: the dick Blenders?
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: Hey will.
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: Oh she's guys, she's the dick Blender.
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: How did we miss that? God?
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: Damn it? That would have been great. You would have
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: scored more points. Can we change our name to the
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: dick Blenders? Please?
• 46:31
  Speaker 5: Do you want to do that?
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: Do you want to Well, I'm going to refer to yes.
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: Okay, you're the You're the dick Blenders. Now blare. Oh
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: you guys are fantastic. All right, we're gonna have one
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: more heads ahead match up here and the dick Blenders.
• 46:53
  Speaker 4: Thank you.
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: You have no pants man as a hero.
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: Combination Jack Flenders and no pants.
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: Okay, all right, let's make sure I'm getting different handwritings here,
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: but we'll find out. We've got four Jason and Ethan,
• 47:12
  Speaker 3: We've got chill Zilla. Chilling Zilla.
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: Is the name of your hero. We're gonna start with
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: the dick Blenders. I refuse to learn that team name
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: because it's to do with DC. You guys, ready, ready,
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: your time starts now, Kevin, close your eyes. Let me
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: take you on a journey.
• 47:33
  Speaker 5: There's a field with crisp grass, and we pan up,
• 47:38
  Speaker 5: we pan up a man's legs.
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: We pan up a man's legs. They're harry, are they sweaty?
• 47:49
  Speaker 5: What's going on? And then we see his ass and
• 47:53
  Speaker 5: there's no pants on it. There's no underpants on it. Kevin,
• 47:58
  Speaker 5: you'd be surprised, you'd be surprised. How many guys don't
• 48:03
  Speaker 5: have underpants? And this man doesn't have his pants on, Kevin,
• 48:08
  Speaker 5: and he's a hero.
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: He's surprised.
• 48:13
  Speaker 4: How many people just don't want to be wearing pants,
• 48:18
  Speaker 4: myself included. I call myself in that number someone who
• 48:21
  Speaker 4: would rather not be wearing pants. And I think that
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: this speaks to a generation of people who are empowered
• 48:27
  Speaker 4: to just, I don't know, not wear them pants.
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: Lovely stuff. I'd be surprised. I'd be so surprised, you'd
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: be surprised. Fantastic stuff. But before we make a decision,
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: we need to hear the pitch for chill Zilla. Sure, Okay, yeah, yeah, okay, okay,
• 48:45
  Speaker 3: take it away, all right, close your eyes. It's a
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: field of beautiful dewy grass. We pan up.
• 48:54
  Speaker 6: Giant reptile leggs. What's that in his hand when we
• 48:59
  Speaker 6: get above his A big old blunt. That's right, he's
• 49:04
  Speaker 6: a twenty seven story tall giant reptile smoking weed in
• 49:09
  Speaker 6: a field.
• 49:10
  Speaker 7: Hell yeah, I do, Hell yeah. When existential crisis comes,
• 49:15
  Speaker 7: he comes to save today.
• 49:16
  Speaker 3: All right, he's there. It's a sequel.
• 49:19
  Speaker 7: It's a sequel, Kevin, okay, And we pan back down,
• 49:22
  Speaker 7: back down to some dank grass being rolled up.
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: The grass is a metaphorne.
• 49:29
  Speaker 7: To be real fucking chill, all right, because you know,
• 49:33
  Speaker 7: you could be twenty seven stories high. You can also
• 49:35
  Speaker 7: be twenty seven living at home, and that's okay with
• 49:38
  Speaker 7: zero goals.
• 49:40
  Speaker 6: It's like a It's like the old iTunes visualizer is
• 49:44
  Speaker 6: half of them movie, all right?
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: And you do on a Notunes visualizer. Oh man, that's
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: really tough. I love both of those superheroes. I want
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: to make them both into movies because I'm Kevin Figi.
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: Butok I'm not gonna make the decision. It's gonna be
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: up to you guys, the audience, So give me a
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: cheer if you want, if you want to see No Pantsman.
• 50:06
  Speaker 3: And what about ChIL Zilla.
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: I think ChIL Zilla was just a little bit loudest,
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: So yeah, it's gonna be points to I've already forgotten.
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: The team name.
• 50:19
  Speaker 4: God, I cannot wait for No pants Man and chill
• 50:23
  Speaker 4: Zella to team up and just take on.
• 50:26
  Speaker 3: I don't know pants.
• 50:30
  Speaker 7: You're the same guy, say yeah, it's a freaky situation.
• 50:38
  Speaker 7: See what happens is no pants Guy? He gets on,
• 50:40
  Speaker 7: he gets put on trial for unknown reasons. He asked
• 50:44
  Speaker 7: ChIL Zilla to step in for him in the absence.
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: Pick up the mantle, past the sacrificial blunt. Beautiful, It's beautiful.
• 50:56
  Speaker 3: You'd be surprised. I'm so sorry. All right, that's the
• 51:01
  Speaker 3: end of the round. That bold cap is hot.
• 51:07
  Speaker 7: Okay, I think it's diabolic of yous. You could have
• 51:09
  Speaker 7: just worn the hat. He decided to wear the.
• 51:11
  Speaker 3: Bald and the hat.
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: Look, I've got too much lushes have to be Kevin. Fine, Okay,
• 51:20
  Speaker 2: that's the end of the round. Producer, Jen, could you
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: summon a portal to reveal the latest scores?
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: Around five and the dick blenders.
• 51:33
  Speaker 3: Still pretty close, Still pretty close, Okay, round three, it's
• 51:41
  Speaker 3: called rotten.
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: You say tomatoes, I say tomatoes. Are we all familiar
• 51:46
  Speaker 2: with the movie review aggregator rotten Tomatoes. Yes, you actually
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: say tomatoes, I say Tomasah does.
• 51:54
  Speaker 4: The first time I saw the name of this game,
• 51:56
  Speaker 4: it was written down until it made a lot less sense.
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: You say tomatoes, I say tomatoes. Tomatoes.
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: So in this game, our teams will work together to
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: compose a review of a film from the MCU. The twist,
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: they will write that review one word at a time,
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: back and forth between teammates. The second twist, the tone
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: of their review must match the percentage rolled on this
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: one hundred sided Now the third twist. Wait, wait till
• 52:27
  Speaker 2: they hear the third twist, because we got to have
• 52:31
  Speaker 2: more hats here. I'm going to spin this wheel to
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: reveal the publication you're writing for. So I'd also like
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: to hear it in the voice of that publication. We've
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: got a few. I'll read what publications we have here.
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: We've got the BBC, Boston Globe, Vogue Magazine, Vice Online,
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: Mom Talk, the Financial Times, Common Sense Media, and the
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: Colorado Springs Gazette. Production not I genuinely had turning point
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: us as one of the publications.
• 52:58
  Speaker 3: Nix that. Let's get rid of that.
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: Okay, So three points up for grabs per review, one
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: for film knowledge, one for matching the percentage, and one
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: for matching the voice of the outlet you represent. So
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: we are going to start with the Dick Blenders, and
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: your film that you will be reviewing is Guardians of
• 53:18
  Speaker 2: the Galaxy. I'm gonna roll the dice to see what
• 53:23
  Speaker 2: kind of review you'll be giving. Oh my goodness, a
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: nine percent review of Guardians of the gal and you
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: are writing that review for the Boston Globe. So I'd
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: like to hear that in the voice of the Boston
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: Globe when you're ready take it away.
• 53:42
  Speaker 3: When this movie started, I was in the theater.
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: With my wife and she.
• 53:58
  Speaker 3: Was not happy. Sense she was crying.
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: This movie was ah, not.
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 54:19
  Speaker 2: I think that's your review. Fantastic stuff. I look look
• 54:24
  Speaker 2: great Boston accent from Johnny. I felt the effort there.
• 54:28
  Speaker 2: It's it's the Boston Globe. It felt like a nine percent,
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: So two points. I didn't hear anything about the film
• 54:34
  Speaker 2: itself though, soe was crying.
• 54:42
  Speaker 3: She was crying man in the theater. Yeah, I can
• 54:46
  Speaker 3: so two points. Out of three, though, take it.
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: That's very kind. Graciously accept.
• 54:54
  Speaker 3: We'll practice Boston accents.
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: No, we won't.
• 54:59
  Speaker 3: Hey, I'm for Boston. I like sports.
• 55:05
  Speaker 4: I was just trying to decide where the Boston Globe
• 55:08
  Speaker 4: fell politically on this.
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know what the tone is here.
• 55:13
  Speaker 3: I think they serve a working class that year. I
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: think I think they're all right.
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: I should have I should have utilized that.
• 55:19
  Speaker 3: What's mon talk? What's any of this ship? I can't read? Dude,
• 55:23
  Speaker 3: what don't worry about until it happens.
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: It's about to happen right now. So Batman and Robin,
• 55:30
  Speaker 2: your movie is Avengers Infinity War. That is that is
• 55:34
  Speaker 2: your movie, and your percentage is sixty five sixty.
• 55:39
  Speaker 3: Five pretty average, pretty average? Okay, and you are writing
• 55:42
  Speaker 3: for the BBC. All right, take it away whenever you're ready.
• 55:52
  Speaker 8: This film was all right. We could have seen more
• 56:02
  Speaker 8: British people. That was quite disappointing. The Stones were beautiful,
• 56:20
  Speaker 8: but the CGI was lacking. We also noted that Thurnos
• 56:32
  Speaker 8: could have been better.
• 56:37
  Speaker 3: Good stuff.
• 56:37
  Speaker 2: I thought that was a great review. Fantastic accents. Just
• 56:42
  Speaker 2: like how I talk Tomato, I heard movie knowledge, I
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: heard Stones I heard danas, I heard an average review,
• 56:53
  Speaker 2: and I heard British accents. The three out of three points,
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: I think, Oh yeah, Okay, back on over to the
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: dick Blenders.
• 57:01
  Speaker 3: Your I have to keep saying it.
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: It's my favorite part.
• 57:09
  Speaker 3: Blend blend, motherfucker.
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: Your next film is ant Man and the Wasp Quantumania.
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: Very popular film, very popular film. Your percentage is eighty two.
• 57:25
  Speaker 3: Hell yeah, love that movie.
• 57:28
  Speaker 2: And your publication is the Colorado Springs Gazette.
• 57:33
  Speaker 3: Whenever you're ready.
• 57:34
  Speaker 5: Ant Man was good. I really but that this journey
• 57:47
  Speaker 5: was profound. It went uh way that I didn't expect.
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: But they made uh solid movie, all right.
• 58:13
  Speaker 3: Okay, I didn't hear too much about the specifics of
• 58:16
  Speaker 3: the movie itself.
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: Again that's true.
• 58:18
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: Obviously, you match the tone of the percentage. If you
• 58:22
  Speaker 2: can tell me what about that was Colorado Springs, I'll
• 58:24
  Speaker 2: give you a point for that as well.
• 58:26
  Speaker 3: We live here, you live here? Oh great, Yes, two
• 58:31
  Speaker 3: points for the dick Blenders. Just trying to talk with
• 58:34
  Speaker 3: my true voice.
• 58:36
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really authentic to me, and it hurts that
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: you questioned that.
• 58:43
  Speaker 3: The only thing phony about that was that it got
• 58:47
  Speaker 3: an eighty.
• 58:47
  Speaker 5: Two percent because that movie sucky.
• 58:51
  Speaker 3: That was the most energy. These are opinions on a podcast.
• 58:56
  Speaker 7: This is good, that movie sucks. Such a passionate review.
• 59:04
  Speaker 2: Okay, for Batman and Robin, we're gonna have another movie
• 59:07
  Speaker 2: that everyone's seen. You've got the Eternals. Is your Is
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: your movie?
• 59:11
  Speaker 3: A gasp?
• 59:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 59:13
  Speaker 3: Real talk underrated. I liked it.
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: I agree with.
• 59:16
  Speaker 5: Jason as much as I hate you, and I'm gonna
• 59:19
  Speaker 5: crush you in this.
• 59:19
  Speaker 3: Game for sure.
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: I love them all right. I was underrated.
• 59:23
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, I love you and I respect Okay, let's find
• 59:29
  Speaker 2: out what it is rated. You cannot make this up.
• 59:32
  Speaker 3: It's one A one percent review of the Eternals for
• 59:41
  Speaker 3: the Financial Times. A one percent review of Marvels the
• 59:46
  Speaker 3: Eternals for the Financial Times.
• 59:48
  Speaker 7: Take it away. Eternals has no money? What poor people
• 59:59
  Speaker 7: made these movie trash? Could Eternals use more money? Yes,
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 7: give us more money. There were eight characters no money.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 3: I think that's it. I think that's the perfect review.
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 2: That was my authentic self fantastic, and you were so authentic.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: So the Financial Times definitely a point. That definitely a
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 2: point for matching one percent, because you guys could not
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 2: give a shit. I didn't hear too much about the
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 2: eternal specifically eight people.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: Eight characters don't know. I'm sorry. Also, no money, remember,
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 3: oh yeah, no factual money.
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: KINGO had a lot of money though.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 5: Inaccuracies, but the money made. But you're suggesting that the
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 5: characters had no money, but Kingo was really rich.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 2: Hmm okay, so no, I'm going to say half a
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 2: point so that we don't have a tie. So two
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 2: and a half points, so sorry, we're dealing in half points.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 2: We're in decimals. We're in decimals. All right, that's the
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 2: end of round three, Producer, Jen, I've given you so
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 2: much time to calculate those decimals. Could you please use
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 2: your mutation of counting to reveal the later.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 4: Scores are on ten point five points.
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 2: Decimals, But there won't be a tie and anything can
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 2: change in our quick fire around because that's where most
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 2: of the points are scored. But before that, I'd like
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 2: to remind everyone of the mystery prize. Yes, no expenses
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 2: being spared. Genuinely exciting.
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 3: So should we do this? Should we do the final round?
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 3: All right?
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: Our final quick fight, Thank you for that, Johnny, Our
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 2: final quick fire around will test your broader pop culture knowledge,
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: and it's called MCU. Next Tuesday. In this game, I
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 2: will give our players a synopsis for a Marvel movie
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 2: combined with another famous movie. Your answer will be the
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 2: two titles ran into each other, with the Marvel movie
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 2: always being first. It's much simpler than it sounds, and
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 2: it could be any Marvel movie, not just the MCU. So,
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 2: for example, if I said an ancient Egyptian mutant is
• 1:02:44

  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 3: Good stuff.
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 2: Just like so, it's the start of a Marvel movie
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 2: that leads straight into the title of another movie. I've
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 2: left a lot of time for this in case it
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 2: takes us half an hour to get through all twelve clues.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 2: You've got to say the answer correctly or I can't
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 2: give you the points and someone else can buzz in.
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 2: If not, it's quick fire, So you buzz in by
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 2: yelling out your team name. Let's practice that now, Batman
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 2: versus Dick blenders. All right, you can interrupt me.

  Speaker 2: much for saving the right.
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 3: Johnny.
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 2: You have designed and built from the ground up TTPG
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 2: called Team Up. Yes, kind of inspired. I was doing
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 2: a model thing tonight.
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, awesome. Tell it's awesome that you're doing this. It's synergy,
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 3: I think, yes, absolutely, Johnny. Why don't you tell everyone
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 3: in the room and everyone listening at home all about Teama.
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 5: Sure, yes, Odra and Ethan and both played, and you
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 5: Matt as well. Sorry he leave me out of it.
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 5: Matt's also played. So if you guys have anything to add,
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 5: please do. But Team Up is a superhero tabletop role
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 5: playing game. If you're familiar with things like Dungeons and
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 5: Dragons or Pathfinder, et cetera, it is in the vein
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 5: of those kind of games. We tried to do a
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 5: lot of things differently. The main two kind of pillars
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 5: for me as I was working on it. We're number one,
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 5: you get to create your own power set, so instead
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 5: of being confronted by a long list of powers or abilities,
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 5: you just get to make them so you get to
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 5: be your dream hero, which is really rewarding. And then
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 5: the other thing was just trying to be true to
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 5: the genre, which you know, things like D and D
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 5: are wonderful, but they are for fantasy originally, and they
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 5: don't quite capture everything for me when I want my
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 5: full superhero fantasy. So we tried to continue to narrow
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 5: it down and make it fun, fast, and very superhero.
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 3: The goal overall was to give that childlike feeling.
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 5: When you're playing superheroes as a kid, you know, running
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 5: around in the backyard, I should fire at you, and
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 5: that kind of thing, just to give that full ability
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 5: to explore and imagine, but giving some guidelines for the
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 5: combat obviously.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 3: So that's that's team up. It's really fun.
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: You'd be surprised that this doesn't exist already. You'd be surprised.
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: You surprised.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 6: I think my favorite part of the game that I've
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 6: played is is the namesake for the game, the mechanic
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 6: that you've made called teaming up, where you team up
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 6: and the power that you made originally and then the
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 6: power that your friend made can combine in cool ways.
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 6: It's those moments where you know, Captain America picks up
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 6: Thor's hammer, or Hawkeye shoots ant Man not an arrow.
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 6: You know, like these cool team up moments where their
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 6: powers are working together and synergy and you and your
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 6: friends are coming up with with cool things and bouncing
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 6: them around together.
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 3: It's really fun. Yeah.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 4: I think in some games there will be like a
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 4: time where you pause and you have to look at
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 4: the sheet and be like, oh, but can I actually
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 4: do that? Oh, well, this means that I can do
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 4: X Y Z, and it's like, no, you made the power,
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 4: and you will roll the diet to determine how strong
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 4: it is.
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 1: But you made the power.
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 4: You know how it works, and so there's not something
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 4: where you're like, oh, actually I couldn't do that.
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 7: Can no Pantsman and chill Zilla team up and smoke
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 7: a fat blunt together?
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yes, oh yeah, only in my TTRPGA.
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 2: It is such a fantastic game. I've had so much
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 2: fun play testing it over the last several months. It
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 2: has been fantastic.
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 3: If you're hear in the room chat to Johnny after
• 1:12:09
