- 2:37Hello. Hello.
- 2:38I am your girl. Bam, Hendrix.
- 2:40That is with two x's and an underscore I make parody videos.
- 2:45I'm starting to cosplay. A starting to get into voice
- 2:48acting all things. Animate, all things.
- 2:50Manga, of course, I started out on the scene, probably around 20
- 2:5619 when I was in grad school, and I was in Atlanta.
- 3:00And I just one day, I was just like, you know what, I was, I
- 3:03was live tweeting about Dragon Ball super, and I remember this,
- 3:07like it people were responding, and then I started seeing that
- 3:10people were funny and they were making videos and I'm like,
- 3:13listen, I want to do this. I made First video.
- 3:18It went I mean I didn't I was so unsure of how it was going to go
- 3:23and it received so much love so much.
- 3:26It went viral and I was like whoa you know that was my first
- 3:29time where I was like you know what?
- 3:30I might have something here. Yeah, I started to be
- 3:34consistent. I was writing.
- 3:35It was even one time I was in class, and I couldn't
- 3:37concentrate because there's an idea in my head, and I had to
- 3:39write it out during class, like, I'm in Psychology like 101.
- 3:43But I'm over here writing about my hero Academia type, you know
- 3:45what I mean? And from that point on, I was
- 3:48like, there's something here that I want to expound upon.
- 3:51Yeah, I actually ended up getting a job at the airline's
- 3:55right before, I had finished my first year.
- 3:59So that kind of turned my stability upside down.
- 4:01I slow down on my videos, but I was still very much like live
- 4:04tweeting about the show's wanting to have these
- 4:06conversations wanting to talk about it and now it's turned
- 4:10into something that I really want to pursue.
- 4:12I want it to be my career you know and now that I have a mic
- 4:16guys My first bike crazy. I want to pursue voice acting as
- 4:21well and all day today. I've literally just been like
- 4:23going over lines and watching videos and trying to see
- 4:26exercises to warm up your voice, you know.
- 4:28So there's my journey now at the tender age of 27, here I am so
- 4:35nice, very awesome. Yeah, and CCC stuff like that.
- 4:42That is one of the reasons why I love having this podcast case.
- 4:47Is it is a awesome excuse for me to get to talk to awesome people
- 4:50and to enter into learn about, you know, you know, because
- 4:55because it's like even even though, you know, you might
- 4:58follow somebody for a long time or y'all follow each other
- 5:00whatever. And sometimes you never or it's
- 5:04hard to kind of like you got the full picture of who a person is
- 5:09and what are they might actually do, you know, just from, you
- 5:12know, reading tweeze, or Instagram posts or whatever.
- 5:16And so that's why I enjoy being able to have these conversations
- 5:20and stuff, whatever. Because like I said, it's like,
- 5:21you know, I do it more. So for myself than for the
- 5:24people. And I mean, like, it's just,
- 5:27it's really cool to actually sit there and listen to the person
- 5:30behind the Avatar, the person behind the tweets, you know,
- 5:33like, I think we all have maybe some kind of idea about each
- 5:37other online. But then you actually sit there
- 5:39and you get to know them and it's like, like I see, I see how
- 5:42your personality like transfers onto the internet.
- 5:47Yeah, but actually know this person not to have talked.
- 5:50It's like you are like, you're like completely down playing
- 5:52yourself you know. So it is a cool thing.
- 5:55It is really cool and I'm happy that we can like talk and like
- 5:58have this you know I'm excited. Yes for sure.
- 6:01Cuz and I feel like like a like a lot of us have talked about
- 6:06this since you know, a lot of us got to meet each other, a dream
- 6:09kind of whatever but it that was definitely a moment of like what
- 6:13you just said like, okay, you are.
- 6:17Or what I imagine when I'm either, you know, like see like
- 6:21reading your tweets or listen to people's podcast or the YouTube
- 6:24videos or whatever and is like, okay, now.
- 6:26Okay. Yes, yes you are being genuine.
- 6:28You are, you know, this is you, you know.
- 6:31So, so I guess also how love it. So so I do I want to kind of
- 6:39just Dive Right In to the airline stuff.
- 6:46So So okay so so you say you've been doing that since 2019?
- 6:50Yes I was hired on in 2019. Yes, okay.
- 6:54Yes I've been a flight attendant going on for years now.
- 6:57Yeah but like the start of my fourth year.
- 6:59Yeah so so okay so so when you got into doing that or whatever
- 7:05or I guess the first question is like what led you to wanting to
- 7:10get into being a flight attendant and and you know,
- 7:12working in the airline industry. So the my roommate at the time,
- 7:17Him. We're both just like over
- 7:19school. I had taken a year off from
- 7:21school. I had graduated my undergrad in
- 7:232017. She had went straight into grad
- 7:26school after she graduated in 20 of 18.
- 7:28So we're both just kind of like, yo, is there, there's more to
- 7:32life out here? Like they're like this can't be
- 7:35it, you know? And she she said well, you know,
- 7:39I've always thought about being a flight attendant, like I've
- 7:40always wanted like they just fly all over the world and I was
- 7:42like, yeah, sure and they get money I was in for a rude.
- 7:45Awakening with that one. I was in for a rude, awakening
- 7:48it, but she was like, you know, I just really would love to
- 7:51like, do that, you know? So the second semester, she left
- 7:56grad school, and she applied, and she got the job, like she
- 7:59went to training and everything and she applied.
- 8:02I was like, okay, I'm going to kind of chill out for imma see,
- 8:06this is actually what I want to do and then after I knew that
- 8:09she got hired on, I'll do. Okay, I'll just go ahead.
- 8:12I'll I'll apply we'll see how it goes.
- 8:14Yeah I applied I got a job on the But it was crazy and I was
- 8:18like, all right, like this is real life.
- 8:20Like I'm about to leave stability, I didn't, I didn't
- 8:23know, was only stability, but I was about to leave stability,
- 8:26and go into a whirlwind of just everything because this job is
- 8:32so unconventional. It's not a nine-to-five.
- 8:33Yeah, you don't clock in and clock out.
- 8:36It's you don't, sometimes you don't know where you're going
- 8:38until you get there, you know? And I have like I said, I've
- 8:43adapted clearly I've adapted well, I get it, but it Was it
- 8:47was a huge adjustment because you know, my family, we go to
- 8:51school, we get our degrees. That's all we know, but I kind
- 8:54of switched it up. I was like listen school always
- 8:57be there. Yeah let me hop on this plane
- 9:01let me just let us go around the world, you know what I mean?
- 9:03Young black girl. No kids, no husband.
- 9:05You know, there's not a lot of things to tie me into one place.
- 9:09So I was like I might as well seize the opportunity and now
- 9:12four years later here I am. Yeah, and that better.
- 9:17Are awesome and especially the fact of like you said like
- 9:20seizing the opportunity because a lot of times you know and I
- 9:26feel like all of us can say one point or multiple points in our
- 9:29lives you know we've had chances to or we've had decision-making
- 9:33moments towards my okay. Do I go left or right, dragging
- 9:37up or down and you know the course of my life change,
- 9:42depending on, you know, that decision as so So like I said, I
- 9:47like like like with you getting to travel and stuff now.
- 9:50But before you become a flight attendant had you got to do much
- 9:56traveling in general before then or what?
- 9:59This kind of like. Hey we're talking to the deep
- 10:02end of the traveling pool. No.
- 10:06I mean in college, I had my car so I was always going somewhere.
- 10:10Yeah. That was more traveling.
- 10:11I did but to actually like fly out and go somewhere.
- 10:14No, I did not do a lot of that. I had fun on planes before.
- 10:19Yeah, but that, I mean, I would literally fly maybe once a year
- 10:23because I would go and visit my cousin's in Jacksonville.
- 10:25Yeah, other than that. No, man.
- 10:28I, I was not flying nowhere. Yeah, not flying.
- 10:36I didn't have my passport, so I had to get a passport for this
- 10:39job. Yeah.
- 10:40Yeah. So I had to renew it actually.
- 10:42I had one, but it expired at was a kid, so yeah.
- 10:46Yeah. So so I guess with I have just
- 10:51so many questions. Yeah.
- 10:53Who do just let this like let him roll off your tongue man.
- 10:55We got we got it. We're here.
- 10:57So so so okay, so so with you like I said, like diamond to do
- 11:02all this traveling and stuff. What was kind of like There, I
- 11:08guess part of this is my be an obvious answer but it's like
- 11:11what was like one kind of like kind of like a reality check
- 11:15moment for you kind of like when you first started doing the
- 11:18trunks of as far as like okay you know this is either more
- 11:22than I thought it would be or crazier than I expected.
- 11:26Like kind of what was what do you think was the the moment you
- 11:31know whether it be going to certain location or same thing,
- 11:35whatever that you was like okay? This is insane.
- 11:39That this is my life. Now, I want to say, like, with
- 11:46the like, the first three months, I mean, because it's
- 11:49like I said, this job is not at all.
- 11:51Anybody thinks it is. Yeah, it is system.
- 11:55Pretty much where you're used as is it first?
- 11:57So, when you're really jr. They're kind of just like
- 11:59whatever you get is what you get, you know what I mean.
- 12:00I'll call you at whatever time they want to and you got to be
- 12:03ready within a certain amount of time at the airport.
- 12:05Yeah, that was new for me, especially being based in a city
- 12:10that I've never been to. I was like, when I first
- 12:13started, I was based in DC and, you know, coming from Nashville,
- 12:19Nashville is not small, but it's not greasy, it ain't New York,
- 12:22it ain't Kelly, you know what I mean?
- 12:24So, I had to learn that within itself.
- 12:29I mean the capital of our nation.
- 12:32You know what I mean? It was a very politically
- 12:34charged climate. So I was getting culture shock
- 12:36with that, in general. Yeah, on top.
- 12:38Of a new job on top of eating my living situation.
- 12:41Like it was It's crazy. I don't know how I did it.
- 12:46I don't know how I stuck with it because so many people quit
- 12:49within like the first, like, six months of this job because they
- 12:51think it is what it is when it's not at all.
- 12:54Yeah, so I was, I adapted very quickly of, you know what I
- 12:59mean? It was something I had to adapt
- 13:01to but it was definitely how its set up and how, you know, you
- 13:06can get called at three in the morning, you can get called at 7
- 13:09p.m. you can't, you know? I mean you can get your flight
- 13:13can cancel. The, whether it was it was a
- 13:15lot, you know what I mean? And I of course, gained a whole
- 13:20new respect for airline workers because, you know, we're just
- 13:23passengers, we're just getting the soda and we're just getting
- 13:25the cookies. But these people, you know, you
- 13:28don't know that they've been up since 3:00 in the morning and
- 13:31that could have been their third Flight of the day.
- 13:33Yeah, you know. So of course, they're little
- 13:35cranky or they're just a little impatient but you don't see
- 13:38that. So It was that it was a huge
- 13:41culture shock all around all around all across the board.
- 13:44Yeah, huge. Yeah.
- 13:46I bet. Yeah.
- 13:50Yes. I like, I'm just like soaking
- 13:53all day and it's like, you know, I've kind of been on car before
- 14:00but that seems like it is just like being on call to the
- 14:05extreme because it's not just like, okay I'm on call I need to
- 14:09go. Work and it's at the same
- 14:11building, whatever. Or even like with me being an It
- 14:14Whatever as I okay? Yeah, I might get called out to
- 14:17a certain location but I know it's within certain parameters.
- 14:21It's not like, oh, like you said, oh it's you know, to AM.
- 14:26Alright. Going to DC or to am?
- 14:28You're going to another country? Maybe she'll call you, they'll
- 14:32call. You never like a listen.
- 14:33You're going to Paris and you're just like, what?
- 14:36Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
- 14:37You need to be there. Putting three hours.
- 14:39Okay. Okay.
- 14:40Okay fine. I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go.
- 14:42What? What?
- 14:43What is so. So with that being said and of
- 14:47course, I know like you know, like with you doing this for a
- 14:50few years you've probably learned certain do's and don'ts.
- 14:53But what is kind of being like some are or maybe like some like
- 14:57the craziest times where you've been in the middle of something
- 15:01and then it's like, all right, we need you.
- 15:05Oh so like if I'm actually out in the economy for work, yeah.
- 15:13There's not been too many times to be honest, because normally,
- 15:16you can kind of gauge when they were you after a while you
- 15:18gauge, like when they will call you.
- 15:21Yeah, I think the only time that I was really upset was when I
- 15:25was almost off in, like, two hours like my rap was going to
- 15:28end within two hours and I was getting ready to go take my
- 15:31friends to this vegan bakery in DC and I was like, you guys got
- 15:33to come and try like, it's going to be fun.
- 15:35I get a phone call. Listen, I was almost off.
- 15:39I had only one day left. I wasn't.
- 15:41All right, I'm just gonna go Do what I want.
- 15:43I was so excited. Face cupcakes.
- 15:45I don't think you understand, like they're called Sticky
- 15:46Fingers and they're in DC and I would literally go like once a
- 15:49week because I was like addicted to like they put like crack or
- 15:54something. These Cupcakes Charlotte, it's
- 15:56vegan crack. That's they put it on.
- 15:58It was so good. I was so mad.
- 16:00They wanted me to go to Alabama. And I'm just like, like I can't
- 16:04find nobody else. There is nobody else in this
- 16:06company that y'all can call ya, even delay.
- 16:09The flight because it was actually illegal to come,
- 16:11because they had to give you a certain amount of Time to get to
- 16:12the airport so they didn't they called me within like an hour
- 16:16and a half of the report and I should have been and I say oh
- 16:18listen I need my two hours. I'm not going there okay
- 16:20disregard They regarded it called me back and said, hey we
- 16:25delayed this flight, you're going to work at and I'm like my
- 16:31friends they brought me back a cupcake.
- 16:33Okay because they knew that I was so mad and so pissed off.
- 16:37So yeah I think that was the only time really?
- 16:39Cuz normally like I'm I'm doing with things within my means or
- 16:44sometimes you get a notification way before or like the night
- 16:46before sometimes so you kind of know but they'll call you at the
- 16:50last minute they need to Yeah. Yeah so so so with with the way
- 16:56your scheduling stuff is especially now you know like say
- 17:00like Bandit doing it for some years.
- 17:05Like it is it kind of is it, I don't know.
- 17:08Regular is the right word, but I guess.
- 17:09Is it kind of like a reoccurring thing to resolve got your
- 17:13working x amount of time and then you have, you know, a week
- 17:19off or whatever, like, what is kind of like that are been flow
- 17:23of your schedule and stuff like or, or is there any type of
- 17:27regularity? So yeah, so you actually bid for
- 17:30your schedule a month and a half in advance.
- 17:32So you there's a list of They're called lines, littlest of mind
- 17:36that you can look at where you see certain trips and certain
- 17:41days that you might have off certain times where you're
- 17:44working and you just bid for what you want for that next
- 17:47month. Like sometimes, I don't care
- 17:49because I have nothing to do. I'm nothing planned other times.
- 17:52I might be like, okay, I know that I need this weekend off,
- 17:55let me go ahead and get bid for the lines that are complementary
- 18:00to that. Yeah, sometimes I don't get so
- 18:02lucky, something I got to do a little Removing around.
- 18:06Sometimes I do get lucky. Get my first choice.
- 18:08Yeah, it just really depends. It also depends on the season
- 18:11two. So, you know, in the wintertime
- 18:13and fall, it's much slower than in the summer.
- 18:16Yeah, so I'm, I can probably get more what I want in the fall and
- 18:20winter versus when I would in the summer of the spring because
- 18:23you know, people aren't flying as much or there.
- 18:27Yeah. So that's how it is.
- 18:30And you can stack up your days to wear if you want to have six
- 18:32days on and then like five days off.
- 18:34Or you want to have one day on in between?
- 18:37You can do that too. Okay, and I've done that.
- 18:41So, say, if I do want a list of days off, like towards the
- 18:43beginning or end of the month, I can switch out with other flight
- 18:46attendants, or I can build a certain schedule to where I have
- 18:50these days off, and I can work as much as I want to know.
- 18:55Yeah, you, you can essentially make your own schedule, but
- 18:58sometimes trading is tricky. So, yeah, but essentially it's
- 19:01what you make it, okay? Okay, cool. so, We're will put a
- 19:08pin in that real quick because I'm a tie, it all back together
- 19:10in a second. So let's take a take a trip down
- 19:15memory lane with bam and your anime or Manga Journey, where,
- 19:24where did that kind of start and you know, how long have you been
- 19:29into anime and manga and and yeah.
- 19:32So we'll just start with that. So, of course, the infamous,
- 19:37When you didn't even know you were watching anime at the age
- 19:40of like five and six, you know, I was one of those.
- 19:42Yeah, that is, that's my villain.
- 19:44Origin story right there. I would have rushed home to
- 19:48watch Daily Mail with my best friend every day.
- 19:49Like we would call each other. Like, are you watching?
- 19:51Uh, if I was like, yes, like okay, like we, we got this, you
- 19:54know, then I was, of course, Dragon Ball you, nobody new
- 19:58Dragon Ball was anyway. We just wanted to just blast a
- 20:01blue orb from our hands like Goku.
- 20:04You know, I thought that's all I wanted to do.
- 20:07As I got older, I was like, okay, I want to start drawing.
- 20:10I want to start writing about this.
- 20:12I started doing fanfiction. I started doing fan art.
- 20:16I went to an artistic school. So it was very, very Talent
- 20:20oriented and I guess it was molding that, okay?
- 20:26And I was I was I just fell in love with it.
- 20:28I just absolutely loved it. I was gonna have a talent for
- 20:30this at a young age. I switched schools and it was
- 20:35weird because the culture was The different where I went from
- 20:38a very artistic setting where everybody was weird and
- 20:40everybody was just like, they like they like I would somewhat
- 20:43academic setting where it was more like you.
- 20:47This is who you are. This is the box and you're gonna
- 20:49fit in it. Yeah.
- 20:50So I felt like I had nobody to relate to anymore.
- 20:51I kind of lost my spark for it. I like, I'm weird like I'm a
- 20:55black girl that likes this kind of stuff.
- 20:56There's only one of the black girl that I knew and she was,
- 20:58she would draw her own Manga. She would drive her home like
- 21:00skits and everything and I thought it was like, the most
- 21:03like amazing thing ever but she was like, you know, Like nobody
- 21:07really cares black kids like, you know, like if you are not
- 21:11loud and obnoxious and you're just not fitting into those
- 21:14stereotypes food and you're an Oreo and white and this that
- 21:19because I listen to rock music. I was like, I loved alternative
- 21:22music. I love trip pans.
- 21:24Like I was going to Hot Topic. Yeah.
- 21:27Okay, listen. I wasn't on top of all the time
- 21:31and then I went to college and it was even more of a culture
- 21:34shock because I would have a very diverse High School to.
- 21:38Now I'm the black population at my school was like, nothing, you
- 21:43know what I mean? So there is that right there.
- 21:47I was having an identity crisis because I go from seeing and
- 21:50hearing different languages and knowing about different holidays
- 21:54and cultures, to literally these Backwoods like racist, white
- 22:02people that are just like n-word, n-word n-word, but
- 22:06you're a good and word and you're an exception of the
- 22:08n-word and it's like Okay, so then I will chapter of my
- 22:13blackness. I get out of that.
- 22:14I graduate. I go to Atlanta and I was like,
- 22:18I'm trying, I'm trying to find a comfort, you know what I mean?
- 22:22I had an awful senior year, I go home.
- 22:24I took a year off. I'm like, okay, what is
- 22:28something that I enjoy? Even if I was a kid, that makes
- 22:32me feel good. And so I started building our
- 22:33toe, I decided bending Naruto. I started watching from like the
- 22:38beginning to like, all with Distributing like all of that,
- 22:41like everything, you know. And I learned so many lessons,
- 22:47like it's crazy how these cartoons, they teach you a lot,
- 22:53they're very good. Edible like when Naruto was 12,
- 22:55I was 12. Naruto was 16, I was 16 so it
- 22:59was there. It actually admired my life and
- 23:01it sent. It was very, it was very
- 23:03comforting, it was very nice. I will never watch it again
- 23:06because I know the first animal that ever cried on, but then I
- 23:10was like, you know what? I shouldn't be ashamed of this.
- 23:12Like, this is something that I enjoy like, this is nice.
- 23:14Like I, I find enjoyment in watching this and then I went to
- 23:18the live tweeting, and then I went to the videos and now, here
- 23:22we are. We are in 2022.
- 23:27Here we are. Awesome.
- 23:29Awesome about that. That's very doping.
- 23:31It I can relate to a lot of things that you that you just
- 23:35talked about a stuff cuz sighs story for Robert real quick
- 23:41because you something like, I like, sharks and stuff when you
- 23:45got to college and stuff. So I'm trying There's a chance,
- 23:50I might have maybe mention this, have some points.
- 23:51I'm going to practice if I did hear about to hear it again but
- 23:56but so my first time when I when I went to school moved in or
- 24:02whatever and when I first got there whatever I was because so
- 24:08the way of the way my dream was set up, it was kind of like
- 24:11apartment-style to her. It was four of us.
- 24:13Each of us had our own separate bedrooms and we shared yeah
- 24:16coming in. You have two bathrooms on each
- 24:18side. No, just one bathroom.
- 24:20I'll just come back tomorrow, okay?
- 24:23But at the time I was the only black kid in my apartment.
- 24:29Three other white guys and their they ended up being cool.
- 24:32But First night impression. So, you know, I get to like I
- 24:37said, I'm just in my room chilling or whatever.
- 24:40Pretty much. I get there whatever because I
- 24:43had no car whatever. So I was like, my uncle drop me
- 24:45off. Goodbye.
- 24:47I'm stuck in Marshall, Texas for the next two years.
- 24:51Not not really people came and got me between there.
- 24:54But but yeah. But as I, alright.
- 24:55Bye. Love you.
- 24:58A so first night, I'm just my room doors close whatever.
- 25:03Just because I'm cooking I'm nervous because I've always been
- 25:05the kind of crying nerdy guy or whatever.
- 25:07So I'm just in my room chilling or whatever.
- 25:10All of a sudden I'm hearing all this kind of like, techno music
- 25:15and stuff whatever. So I'm like, what is going on
- 25:18out there? So I like crack open my door, it
- 25:22is Pitch Black and I just see glow sticks.
- 25:26So, some of my roommates and a lot of their friends that came
- 25:32over, whatever they had glow stick, some of them had, like,
- 25:35cut the glow sticks. It's like the, like, the liquid
- 25:36stuff. Whatever was all over.
- 25:39The ceiling wall, I'm whooping ass.
- 25:43So they, my first night here and I am like, Close door.
- 25:51Like all right, like this, I'm in it.
- 25:54I'm in it. Like I am in this break but
- 25:59luckily they all ended up being cool.
- 26:01They all ended up being anime fans and take nerves and stuff
- 26:04whatever something. Okay.
- 26:05It worked out in the long run but I said my first night you
- 26:11can drop it off your own, the person of your race in a room
- 26:14and you click up on your door and you just see glow sticks and
- 26:18techno music and your Oh my God, white culture like a goose and I
- 26:23immersed, in white culture, like, is this what they do
- 26:29behind closed doors. Yeah.
- 26:33And so, yeah, so that was my first store or my first night in
- 26:38college, like I said, just huge culture shock.
- 26:41But of course, like I said, like over the time months and years
- 26:44or whatever grew to love them, all or whatever.
- 26:47We all super cool, whatever. And, you know, Cuz we had people
- 26:50swap out of come and go and the tires changed where went from
- 26:55being me, one black guy, three white roommates too.
- 27:00Who know what was it over time? It was Two black guys, White.
- 27:08Hispanic and then printers printers.
- 27:11By the time I left there, it was two black guys and two, Hispanic
- 27:14guys. So yes, it was trying to get
- 27:16over. It was a little diversity.
- 27:18We shifted. His got, we're Banning little
- 27:20bit that. That was my, my little tangent
- 27:22with that story. So no, you're gonna sit so
- 27:26relatable, like, to being like the event.
- 27:27Especially the only like black person on top of the only
- 27:30person. That's not white somewhere.
- 27:31Oh yes. Very intimidating because you
- 27:33can't even bounce off any kind of experience with anybody else.
- 27:35That's not white. You're just kind of like, here's
- 27:37you and Walls, and you're just like, okay, yes, like this like,
- 27:45wow. Where's where's the
- 27:48armageddon's? Please, when are you coming
- 27:51back? Like, let me know.
- 27:53Like, yeah, so I get it. I honestly getting the culture
- 27:58shock thing. It's absolutely and an
- 28:01experience. That's almost Indescribable.
- 28:03Yes, though. I was a, you know, over my time
- 28:07there R. Of course, I made a lot of other
- 28:09people like me like us and stuff, whatever.
- 28:12And I got to give a shout out to, to my homies, Dre and Gooch,
- 28:18especially Gooch, I know you. Listen, so listening except for
- 28:22me. So I met my homie Gooch through,
- 28:27through our mutual friends, right?
- 28:29Because Goose was a, he was a semester ahead of us or whatever
- 28:34but we were all in the same it program itself whatever.
- 28:37So Their dorm room because they they were in the they were in
- 28:42the two-person only dorm rooms. Whatever is it was a complete
- 28:48other like verse culture. Flip to wear s all hip-hop and
- 28:53watching basketball and football we chilling or whatever and
- 28:58stuff. So and and I got to say this
- 29:00real quick, my homie gooch. Funny thing, is that.
- 29:05So Google is very he was very structured, which is why he's
- 29:11awesome and he was super smart and stuff because I, he had a
- 29:14schedule and Goose needs a nap. He going to take a nap but I
- 29:18never forget most afternoons when I when we go over there.
- 29:22Whatever if he wasn't living room whatever drill.
- 29:25Oh go to sleep or whatever and so most of us we just be in the
- 29:29living room with a bunch of just in there just chilling, hanging
- 29:31out having a good time whenever whenever Goose woke up.
- 29:34He returned to his music, he had his little sound bar thing right
- 29:38next to his bed. So he would crank up bass,
- 29:40booming, and stuff like that. So everybody knew up Gooch, he's
- 29:44like like he's awake. All right, let's get the party
- 29:47started. So shout out to you Gooch.
- 29:50Yeah, that's a beauty gurus. A friend of his is a friend of
- 29:54mine. Hello, hello, yes.
- 29:58So yeah. So, bam.
- 30:00Back to you and the anime. So, okay. okay, so so you you
- 30:05went through your journey and stuff and Whatever kind of on a
- 30:09tight eye in the to with you're working with the anime stuff is
- 30:12like how how much if any has you constantly been on the go kind
- 30:20of like changed or affected like how you consume media in
- 30:25general, whether it's anime reading manga TV, shows,
- 30:28whatever, how has that kind of been for you?
- 30:34It's been very, it's been a huge adjustment especially nowadays
- 30:38where My focus is really content creation before, like, I was
- 30:44trying to do, like parody videos in my hotel rooms, like, editing
- 30:47in my hotel rooms. Like, I'm watching shows on my
- 30:51overnight. I mean, I'm able to more so
- 30:54actually watch and consume it that way instead of actually,
- 30:57like trying to put work into it but you have to find ways like
- 31:02when I'm on my overnights and say I'm somewhere for 24 hours.
- 31:05I can probably make like a little quick Tick-Tock before I
- 31:07go and explore or I Can do something like if I haven't been
- 31:10called that day and I'm just chilling at the house.
- 31:12I can do something just real quick and that's what I like
- 31:14about Tick-Tock to is where you can do so much in such a little
- 31:18amount of time because, you know, I used to do videos where
- 31:22I'm shooting like multiple characters and I'm switching my
- 31:24wigs and wardrobe, and I don't have the time to do that
- 31:27nowadays, I just don't have the time, and if I do, sometimes I'm
- 31:31tired. Like, I just came back from
- 31:34like, last week, I was just in Ireland and I'm like, y'all.
- 31:37I need like three days to recover from Jet lag, Lily
- 31:40Ireland is five hours of head of New Jersey.
- 31:43Yeah, so at eight in the morning there, it was like 11 12.
- 31:48I don't know what time at night before so I was just, you know
- 31:51what I mean? So it's my body has to adjust
- 31:54and then sometimes I don't eat how I need to.
- 31:57So it is harder like right now. Especially that I'm trying to
- 32:01make it a focus. Yeah.
- 32:03Excuse to do content but I'm sure I'm still trying.
- 32:06I'm still doing it. I try to be active on Spaces.
- 32:08I try to stay relevant by posting my tic tocs.
- 32:11I'm actually now a brand ambassador now.
- 32:12Shout out to Hawaii, goodness, he's go on there and Shop, guys,
- 32:16I just got the cutest purse ever.
- 32:18And if I had it with me, I do have it.
- 32:20It's actually over there in the corner.
- 32:21I'll show you the second part upon my Tick-Tock, but I just
- 32:24bought an amazing purse from them.
- 32:26It's nice. I love the material going there.
- 32:29Kauai some quiet. Goodness, on Instagram.
- 32:32Quietness.com can also use my promo.
- 32:35Code, bamboula. Be am Ela to get 10% off your
- 32:38purchase. Churches.
- 32:39So there's that, there's little things like that.
- 32:41You know what I mean? Like, even posting tick-tocks
- 32:44and videos and stuff and still advertising for, you know
- 32:47companies, you know, there's there's ways to do this.
- 32:50Yeah. Even if you feel like you don't
- 32:51have the time, there's always some kind of time.
- 32:54So I would say, yes, it's been a struggle.
- 32:57It's been a huge struggle because my stability is
- 32:59completely different now. Yeah, I'm like I said I can't do
- 33:02the Long John are videos that I'm used to but there's also
- 33:05ways around that to wear right now.
- 33:07I gotta grind like Even those of bag to be made in this, I still
- 33:11have a bag to make. Yeah, so I'm using my career and
- 33:15I'm using this to my advantage, you know what I mean?
- 33:17Since I do get five benefits, I can go to conventions and Fly
- 33:20for Free, such finish with anime, we can Atlanta, I did
- 33:23that with dream Khan, you know what I mean?
- 33:25I was able to, I was okay. One thing I don't have to worry
- 33:28about is flights. Yeah, it takes H that that saves
- 33:31me a lot of money, you know what I mean.
- 33:34So even if I can't do it online I'm still I try to show up in
- 33:38person because Another, I can control that too.
- 33:40Yeah. You know what I mean?
- 33:41Especially with conventions. Like I'm trying to make an
- 33:43effort to really get my face out there and network and like let
- 33:47people know like this is my job, this is what I do.
- 33:51This is how I tie it in, you know what I mean, how can these
- 33:54Two Worlds Collide? And that's like, that's me.
- 33:57That's what I'm trying to portray for people.
- 33:59Like if you don't have a conventional job, if you are
- 34:02struggling with like trying to keep up there a ways, like there
- 34:06are ways, and I'm here to like hope You threw that?
- 34:09It sucks and it's hard but it is manageable and it is doable and
- 34:14it is possible. Yeah, it so I like that, I like
- 34:19that. And and so with and actually
- 34:22because you saying that it actually just give me another
- 34:24question for you with the conventional stuff.
- 34:28Have you gone to any conventions and other countries?
- 34:31No, I have it. And I want to because there's
- 34:33some conventions in London, that I know about now.
- 34:36And I'm like, the company I work for has a base.
- 34:38London. So, I've there's flights to
- 34:40London all the time, like, it's no big deal to go to London.
- 34:43So, I'm so excited to go to a London convention, whatever,
- 34:48they whatever it happens, it happens.
- 34:50But that's next on my list is go to a convention in London or did
- 34:54he just had when I forgot what it's called.
- 34:55Sign, the Name Escapes me but they just had something over
- 34:59there and I was like and I saw black people.
- 35:01There was a lot, of course there's like people everywhere
- 35:03but I saw black people and I was like, yo I got I got I gotta put
- 35:08Put this up like I got like God, you got me like these?
- 35:11I want to make this a thing and I know people over in the UK.
- 35:15There's actually someone I want to drink on.
- 35:17Shout To You LS, have to you. Yeah.
- 35:20You know what, I want to link up with him when I go back because
- 35:22that would be, that would be crazy.
- 35:24You know what I mean? Like, that's what anime does, it
- 35:26brings the world together, you know?
- 35:30So it's such a, it's such an exciting thing to think about
- 35:32it. I'm so ready to go and have an
- 35:34international convention like yeah, yes.
- 35:37Just thinking about it. Especially her and I'll say,
- 35:40double shout out to two Ls, because I also got to meet him a
- 35:44drink on. And once again, was a very
- 35:47surprised that he knew who I was and because I'll come up because
- 35:53o, it was at his Booth because Steve from it mom was at his
- 35:58Booth with him or whatever and then was introduced into each
- 36:01other's deepest of all you did. This is Rob Danny to talk.
- 36:04He got me. The that's gave me the biggest
- 36:06hug he's oh, yeah, I know you do.
- 36:07I was like, Okay, so, shut up. I said you just never know your
- 36:13voice reaches. You know what I mean?
- 36:15You never know the influence that you have on people and who
- 36:17knows you and where your name is in certain rooms.
- 36:20So he's gonna keep doing what you're doing, man, somebody's
- 36:22watching. Somebody is always watching.
- 36:25Exactly. And so, with our with, with you
- 36:29been on the go and stuff, do do you have I guess I like when it
- 36:36comes like for Watching stuff. Whether it be anime regular TV
- 36:41or reading manga or books. Do you have a preferred thing?
- 36:46As I look at this is little bit easier to consume when I'm on
- 36:48the go. Or is it still just whatever
- 36:51you're in the mood for is just what you're going to go for.
- 36:54Um, I mean of course like watching definitely is either
- 36:59too consumed in Reading. It's a different kind of
- 37:01concentration. Yeah, normally when I'm on the
- 37:05go, like if I'm at work or something, Normally, I'm just
- 37:08like focusing on. Either working out exploring
- 37:14finding a new restaurant. If I've never been there before
- 37:17doing new things, it's mostly when on my down time, that's
- 37:20when I try to consume, as much as I can.
- 37:22Like, I catch up on my hero. I want to start Jade the jjk
- 37:26manga. That's when like, especially
- 37:28with spaces to because most of the time I'm in the air
- 37:31something during spaces, but if I'm not, I make time for that
- 37:34too, just to kind of pop in so people can hear my boys.
- 37:36I'm like I can talk Talk. But yeah, it definitely like
- 37:40watching. But if I'm on the go, normally,
- 37:43it's like I'm in work mode. Like anime, just in manga, just
- 37:47going to have to go on the back burner.
- 37:49I said, but I might do Tick-Tock.
- 37:50So let me it just, it just really just depends on like, how
- 37:52much time. But yeah, yeah.
- 37:55And they're not because and with you saying that, that definitely
- 37:57makes sense because for sure if you're traveling, or if you're
- 38:02in a new place that you haven't been before.
- 38:05Yeah, probably you know where this he was.
- 38:07And I hear versus oh, I'm in a whole new country for the first
- 38:11time. Let's catch up on some animes
- 38:13like now. Let's get out here.
- 38:14Yeah, like now let's go. Let's take a nap and get go out.
- 38:16Okay, listen cuz when I tell you I didn't know that Oregon has
- 38:20some good wine. Listen was I worried was I
- 38:23worried about my hero in Oregon? I was not, I was at to wineries
- 38:27in Oregon. Okay.
- 38:28And I brought me home a bottle. Yeah, yeah it's I have to have
- 38:33balance with it because, you know, it's starting to feel like
- 38:36a job with anime. It's Art to feel like people are
- 38:39depending on me. People will meet people want to
- 38:40see my content. So I gotta do this, I gotta do
- 38:42that. And you get burnt out.
- 38:44We often that we can all talk about burnout.
- 38:46We can all talk about that. And I felt like this was
- 38:49starting to become a job and I'm like, I don't like it was, I was
- 38:52young and I guess it'll turn that I wanted to do for fun.
- 38:55Something I wanted to do to bring people together, but then
- 38:57it's like, I the but the transition with my job and
- 39:01everything it was it like it took it took a lot out of me.
- 39:04You know what I mean? Like, I lost a lot of freedom at
- 39:09the same time I gained some but I also lost a lot.
- 39:12Yeah. And I think that was awesome
- 39:13that had to adjust to and so that that ran into my motivation
- 39:18for my creativity, you know, I really took like a year or two
- 39:21Hiatus to be honest. Like, I'm just now like within
- 39:24the last year, I'm really just now starting to like, Get back
- 39:30into my creative flow and now, I feel like I do have a community
- 39:35now. Whereas I was making videos, I
- 39:36really have many connections, I was just kind of making videos.
- 39:39I had a friend had one friend here, one friend there.
- 39:41And I was getting the views, but now I feel like I don't get as
- 39:44many views, but I have much more support here.
- 39:47Yeah, so instead of me trying to go from, all right?
- 39:53I'm just chilling. And I've just started this video
- 39:54and I have all this, like, by the morality, I guess.
- 39:59And but no support. Now I've kind of like I'm steady
- 40:03my motive like it's very stable now and I have people to back me
- 40:07up and now I have more connections.
- 40:09I have more networking, I have more opportunities where it's a
- 40:12nice slower growth for me. And I think that like when I
- 40:17first started out, I wanted those views in those numbers
- 40:19again. You know I wanted to connect
- 40:22with those people, you know, I wanted to I I wanted to reach
- 40:27thousands although I know I still have that capability, that
- 40:31impatience comes to. Yeah, so now I feel like also
- 40:36with where I'm at in my life and being 27 and wanting more
- 40:40stability and wanting like a career out of this, I'm a little
- 40:45bit more patient with myself because I know I have talent.
- 40:48I know that I can do things, but now it's more so I have
- 40:52priorities. Yeah.
- 40:54You know, and the priorities will Always come before my
- 40:58craft. Because if I don't have that
- 41:00Foundation together and there's no way I can sit here and make a
- 41:04career out of this. Yeah, that's like, that's where
- 41:07I'm at. That's where I am now.
- 41:08I feel like a lot of my friends can relate to that in the
- 41:10community. Maybe you can even relate to a
- 41:12rock where the, but there is a bag in this.
- 41:16But let me get my ducks in a row right here before I can really
- 41:21take off with this content stuff, you know.
- 41:24So that's It's like really the mindset that I have now.
- 41:29Yeah, I definitely agree with you.
- 41:31And that is the Fitbit. Something like is with me kind
- 41:36of like being new into the space and stuff whatever that I've
- 41:39kind of learned over. I've been this what a year and a
- 41:43half. I've been doing this and stuff
- 41:45at this point and it definitely. Like I said, yeah, I've you
- 41:50know, and I'm great, I'm glad I have kind of been learning a
- 41:54picking up on stuff. Now versus later cuz cuz, you
- 41:59know, everything like you said from just like, learning like
- 42:03self-care slowing down is okay. You know what, you don't have to
- 42:07get this video or that content out right now.
- 42:09Whatever, get your rest, and get your life and family stuff in
- 42:13the order first. And then, whenever you get that
- 42:17video, or that continent or whatever, the people that want
- 42:19to see, it will see it whenever it goes out.
- 42:22So that difference has been like something I've been kind of like
- 42:24having two Make that mental shift even for myself as far as
- 42:29like it's like okay cool, you know.
- 42:33Yeah, I got this review out in time for when it hit store
- 42:37shelves but it's like I was up all night now.
- 42:42I got to be of no, get the kids ready for school and going to
- 42:45work and it just like snowballs very quickly.
- 42:48Like it's like my special night for me.
- 42:50It's like if I mess up and I stay up too late, recording or
- 42:54whatever. It's going to take me some days
- 42:57to recover because it's just exactly.
- 42:59Because, you know, especially like with with the
- 43:02unpredictable, the unpredictable nature of my life to where I was
- 43:06like, okay, not only is it just a normal day to day, still
- 43:10bears, like upkeep, one of the kids got sick, and that can also
- 43:14quickly. Domino tour is like, yes, five
- 43:17kids in this house. If one of them gets sick, If
- 43:20out, if we don't pay attention, somebody else is gonna is gonna
- 43:23make his rounds. It's a duality to it all.
- 43:27Yeah, balance, yeah. So Bob, but yeah.
- 43:31So, so with with that being said, and like you said, I would
- 43:35kind of like finding you know, that balance and stuff.
- 43:42I guess kind of like looking maybe like near future sort of,
- 43:48or whatever. Do do you see yourself doing the
- 43:55flight attendant and stuff? Whatever for a while longer?
- 44:00Or you just kind of just like just hey we just kind of just
- 44:02going with the flow and see how things go, you know.
- 44:06So I actually don't want to be a flight attendant forever.
- 44:10I think that This job is amazing.
- 44:14I think it's great, but I also think that is starting to get to
- 44:16a point where I'm outgrowing, a lot of what is in my life.
- 44:20You know, I think when I first started, I hadn't have a sense
- 44:23of direction on what I wanted to do.
- 44:25Yeah. But now that I'm older and now
- 44:28that I see like this, I want to dedicate my time to this over
- 44:31here. It's starting to become like,
- 44:35all right. Bam.
- 44:37You got to make a decision. You got to make a choice.
- 44:39It does have to be today, doesn't have to be tomorrow but
- 44:42Ashley, I would like to get out of the air.
- 44:43I don't mind staying in aviation.
- 44:45Yeah, I really like Aviation. I actually like the industry.
- 44:48I wouldn't mind that but to actually be a flight attendant,
- 44:50I think you know, sometimes it's okay to clip those wings a
- 44:54little bit. Yeah.
- 44:55And come to the ground and just walk on your feet for a minute,
- 44:59you know. But when it when it comes to
- 45:01content creation, That's really what I want to focus on because
- 45:07I just feel as though I'm seizing, like I said, I'm
- 45:09seizing those opportunities. I'm creating opportunities for
- 45:12myself, I'm starting to see that, like, this is something
- 45:15that I can do. This is something that I have a
- 45:18passion for, and shout out to my friends.
- 45:20I mean, shots of panda and Kelsey, and Mike and Nene and
- 45:26Nene, both neighs. Yeah, shout out to like them for
- 45:30sure because they have been such huge motivators in my life.
- 45:34And they've been there since day, one been like especially
- 45:38Mike and Sunday because they were there when I first was
- 45:42doing my videos and 2019 and they are now like their family.
- 45:47So I know that I have that support system and my job right
- 45:53now like I said there's a lot of difficulties and a lot of like
- 45:58obstacles that I have to maneuver around to want to do
- 46:02full content creation, Granted. Like I said, I can do my own
- 46:05schedule but this job is very especially right now with Summer
- 46:09flying, you know, it can kind of leave you just a little jaded.
- 46:11Yeah, but I miss it, of course. Yeah I'm gonna miss it but I
- 46:17know when it's time for me to leave something and it's about
- 46:22that time, you know. So I'm not impatient about it.
- 46:26I don't really I don't have any other jobs in mind right now.
- 46:30Yeah, like whatever opportunities?
- 46:32Come, they come. I think this is where I'm
- 46:34supposed to be. This is what God wants me.
- 46:36I'm going to be okay. Yeah, but yeah, this is not yet.
- 46:40It's not something that I don't want to be a singer Mama, 25
- 46:43years in girl, and they were here making like 100k years.
- 46:46That's fine. And dandy honey.
- 46:48That's that's hard for you miss Myrtle.

- 47:17Of course, you know. I mean I want to be on
- 47:19commercials I want to do like this is where I know I belong.
- 47:23Yeah. But this is job right now.
- 47:24Is paying the bills. If maybe it's just me, I am
- 47:27fine. Honey I am good but there is a
- 47:31time limit for everything it is. Yeah yeah I like that and
- 47:40actually okay so nothing I want to ask you to with the you know
- 47:44of course with you again to travel and different things like
- 47:47that. Has there been a or How many
- 47:54more places that are maybe like on like your buck in this as far
- 47:59as I okay, I haven't gotten to go here whether it be a country
- 48:04or a state here or whatever like is there any like okay you know
- 48:10but but hopefully you know if you're able to on your dream
- 48:15board okay these are my places left and you've been checking
- 48:19them off over the years. Yeah what are some some some God
- 48:23locations left for you. So Seattle, Washington.
- 48:27Actually, I've never been to Seattle.
- 48:29I would love to go to the original Starbucks and get my
- 48:33like complicated ass order and they get it right because
- 48:37they're the original Starbucks. Yeah, that's what I want to do.
- 48:40I want to go to Iceland. That was my next one because I
- 48:43told myself, I was like, I want to go to London.
- 48:45I finally went to London. I was like I want to go to
- 48:47Dublin. I finally went to Dublin.

- 48:51Lagoon that everybody loves to go to and just Get in there and
- 48:54like we go there and I'm like, I need to be in that Lagoon right
- 48:58now. That's right Iceland.
- 49:02I'm trying to think I'm like, I guess there's so many places.
- 49:08I think my third place would have definitely be Brazil.
- 49:14Mmm so hopefully in the near future as I'm speaking this
- 49:17yeah. Seattle's coming Iceland is
- 49:20coming and I have to go to. I have to go to Brazil, man.
- 49:23Hi like it's a dud that I've been wanting to go for years.

- 49:30time. Yeah.
- 49:32So out of curiosity because I cuz And of course meet did, this
- 49:38is me asking you as an outsider whatever.
- 49:40But if air is like, it's just sounds weird to me that is like
- 49:45you've been doing it for a few years but Dad, you haven't been
- 49:49on a flight to Seattle yet. Like, not even leisurely man.
- 49:53I did not even because I haven't like, not even leisurely.
- 49:56Yeah, you know what I mean? Like, as much as I like to say,
- 50:00we go everywhere. Sometimes you don't go every.
- 50:02Yeah, you're really just you're going to hurl and oh yeah.
- 50:06Oh, you're going to Nashville. Oh, you're going to New York,
- 50:10you know? I mean, sometimes like it's
- 50:12where they want you to go. It's really really want you to
- 50:15go because when I started out, I was actually Regional.
- 50:18So I was only going to a certain like certain state in certain
- 50:21like parts of the United States. Now that I'm with a bigger
- 50:24company. Now I'm like, going, I'm going.
- 50:28I mean, my first trip was to the Dr with this job.
- 50:31Yeah. You know what I mean?
- 50:32Then I remember I was I was, they changed my schedule,
- 50:36completely awesome. Has to go to Chicago Crew
- 50:38Scheduling calls me and they're just like, you're going to
- 50:40Naples? And I'm like Naples.

- 50:47They're like Italy. And I'm like Educator Togetic
- 50:53over test click and I'm like, oh, so this is real life.
- 50:57And that's when for this job, that's when I knew I was like,
- 51:00oh, I'm really here like yeah, Naples, Italy.
- 51:05Like as a black girl, American black girl.
- 51:07That's like swing like six. Like I'm going and I'm working
- 51:11and it was absolutely amazing. My career was great.
- 51:13Oh my it was it was such a beautiful city.
- 51:17Oh my gosh, if I could do it again, if I could rewind the
- 51:19hands of time. Yeah.
- 51:22I would go. Okay.
- 51:24See. Okay.
- 51:25See cuuu explaining the region thing and stuff for that makes
- 51:30sense. Now because I'm like, because
- 51:31I'm like, how are you missing? See I'm not because because it
- 51:35because when you said I'm like, I'm like, is there like a
- 51:38Seattle Africa or like girl? Like like what would like a use
- 51:44public confusing? Why she said it what?
- 51:48But you ain't been over there. Okay.
- 51:53Okay, that that makes sense. But once again, like I said it,
- 51:57you know, like I said like you like as a like I said it's just
- 52:00the person asking the questions that best just interesting.
- 52:04Like I said it's just like oh okay not knowing of course I
- 52:07see. No.
- 52:07I like the ins and outs of. Nope I was just in like this one
- 52:10section here for a while before they.
- 52:13All right. You moved on or you moved up
- 52:15now. You're everywhere.
- 52:17So, okay, okay, that makes more sense.
- 52:23What about? Any hopes are already, do you.
- 52:31Well I guess it would be like within the realm of possibility,
- 52:33maybe even gone to places like Japan or Australia.
- 52:38Yes, of course, I've been want to go to Australia for a minute.

- 53:09the size of like a condo and their aunts are the size of a
- 53:14tractor-trailer? Like I just, I don't know why I

- 54:19And, and spend of Australia real quick.
- 54:20Shout-out, I got to give a shout out to my homies over at Laura's
- 54:24of darktown podcast because they're, they're, they're based
- 54:28out of Australia. I got to do a podcast with them,
- 54:32was that earlier this year, last year, sometime in the last year,
- 54:36Here I did an episode with them and even just podcast with
- 54:40somebody on the other side of the world and was a wild
- 54:44experience, because there was a time, was it over there?
- 54:47So it's so weird to even think about think about.
- 54:51Because like, they are so far ahead of us, that it feels like
- 54:55they're behind us. Because and I'll never forget
- 54:58when we, when I finish recording with them, it was like, it was
- 55:02like, maybe like 1 or 2 a.m. here in Texas.
- 55:05It was like 5 or 6 p.m. what I got a point behind me but it's
- 55:11tank. I guess it's like 5 or 6 p.m.
- 55:12the next day and so it felt so weird.
- 55:15It on my roof because we did it on a it would have been a
- 55:20Saturday night for me. So I guess I've been Sunday
- 55:23afternoon for him. I spent the evening.
- 55:25Yeah, for them. So it was weird because I'm on
- 55:27my roof. It's 1 a.m. 2 a.m.
- 55:30I first go to bed. He's our emphasis you know got
- 55:32to get the kids and stuff ready for dinner.
- 55:36Somehow. Okay, it was just so good
- 55:38getting ready for did. I'm going to sleep.
- 55:40Yeah, somehow. Okay, so down under I don't know
- 55:44how to like, oh, I got a nickname was a Robbo.
- 55:50So that, that was a new all do. Yes.
- 55:53I don't know how I can't lie. I feel like my English accent in
- 55:56modulating. Excellent.
- 55:57They dislike got married. Now, this is what it is.
- 56:01I'm down under, I don't know. I feel like They're just like if
- 56:07like they're like country people.
- 56:08But like if it was taken to the extreme, like I feel like I'm
- 56:12from Nashville, I'll be hearing some like real country twang
- 56:15where I'm from, because I can imagine, but I feel like
- 56:17Australia is what it is. If it was like taking to the
- 56:20extremes, like, I don't know because I'm just like, I see
- 56:25you. How you talk and I feel like I
- 56:27relate like I feel like people from Baltimore.
- 56:30How do you like, do you like, I feel like they from the UK.
- 56:34Yeah, I do. I feel like if they were to go
- 56:36up there and talk to them they can have a good conversation.
- 56:39Yeah. But when I go up to the UK, I
- 56:42got to start talking slow because they feel like we don't
- 56:45know how to talk when I'm like know what y'all that don't know.
- 56:48And it's like we just go we just have in my diaspora Wars or
- 56:50something, I don't know. So it's like I'm just leave it
- 56:55to the Baltimore folks to go to the UK and then translate and
- 56:59I'm gonna go to Australia because I think I feel like they
- 57:01can, they can understand me. Yeah.
- 57:05That's a few. Okay.
- 57:08So next time, I'm cares about to with with, you know, with you
- 57:13and work and stuff. How because fish because you
- 57:18started in Twitter and 2019. How Wild was things when we get
- 57:24into 2020 and covid and other stuff starts happening, what was
- 57:29that? Insanity like and stuff for for
- 57:32you. I got it sucks.
- 57:33I worked during covid. I work the entire time.
- 57:36During I didn't get furloughed. I was very close.
- 57:38Reading furloughed. Yeah.
- 57:39Work was awful. Like, it was, I mean, I was
- 57:43getting pulled in five different directions because they over
- 57:46furlough people look, the over furloughed people.
- 57:48Yeah. Is it that they didn't take into
- 57:49account that people would early retire People would come back
- 57:53and people. Quit just cold turkey.
- 57:56Yeah. So they didn't factor that into
- 57:59it. So with a furlough, on top of
- 58:01all of this, we're getting pulled and a million and five
- 58:04directions. I'm having five flights a day
- 58:07with like, minimum rest overnights with even though
- 58:10nobody was flying. Some of the people that were
- 58:12flying were absolutely insane. And insensitive you know what I
- 58:16mean? So it that I feel like that was
- 58:20really the beginning. Being of my villain Arc and I
- 58:25feel like that was that gave me a just a new appreciation for my
- 58:31job in for us and it does leave you just a little bit jaded.
- 58:34It did because I was like, wow, like even through the mist of
- 58:37this pandemic where I can get sick and I can get my family
- 58:40sick, I'm still working because I need the money.
- 58:42Yeah, and you guys don't even you guys only have enough
- 58:44audacity to sit there and just even be like thank you after I
- 58:46pass out some ginger ale or your diet coke.
- 58:49Miss Marie like come on. Like you don't want to say thank
- 58:55you to me. Are you don't want to be like
- 58:56hello, good morning, how are you?
- 58:58You know what I mean? It was just very those of you
- 59:00just saw it and actually now is when you're seeing people's true
- 59:04colors when it comes to Flying because flying after the
- 59:07pandemic is actually worse than during or before.
- 59:10Yeah. Because the clientele that we're
- 59:11getting our people who never used to fly or who first-time
- 59:15flyers or they've been cooped up in the house and they want what
- 59:18they want and they have some kind of Freedom now and they
- 59:21feel like they're Our servant, it's a lot, you know.
- 59:24Yeah. But during the pandemic it was
- 59:26fine. I mean there were some times
- 59:28where there was no flights a day out of the airport and I would
- 59:32just, I would be on call and I would go out with friends or I
- 59:36would go home or I would sleep. And I mean I even got a second
- 59:39job during it. I was a server at this at this
- 59:43like a bowling arcade. I tell you it was yeah.
- 59:52It was a lot of us in there. Yeah.
- 59:54And I'm like, oh my God. Like I love y'all.
- 59:58Yeah. You know.

- 1:00:05Yeah, I had a different life when I didn't have to work and I
- 1:00:08could actually go and make my own schedule with serving and I
- 1:00:12could get like money, you know? But and then now it's like yeah,

- 1:08:56it. I can't even start like, yeah.
- 1:09:00Hey y'all, so just be prepared. That's almost a just be
- 1:09:03prepared, like please. Yes, please, I'm trying to think
- 1:09:11I could you send my hero spy family.
- 1:09:15Now, that that is done something, how and I'll just
- 1:09:21give this caveat real quick, whatever.
- 1:09:22We, we might talk about some suppose.
- 1:09:24If we do, y'all know, I always put time since for everything,
- 1:09:27whatever. So if you see a stop, First pot
- 1:09:30for spot family. Just now we might have sparse or
- 1:09:32gantu some stuff whatever. But just because it is rare that
- 1:09:35I get to talk with somebody else who is also caught up with the
- 1:09:38manga as to or or that at least read the Manga because you admit
- 1:09:43I think you mentioned before we record a you don't know if
- 1:09:45you're 100% current or your close to current.
- 1:09:49Yeah. Cuz I want to say the last thing
- 1:09:51that I read because it's been a minute since I read it but I dig
- 1:09:56them, but I did stop because I was caught up but now I feel
- 1:09:58like I probably am not Not. I want to say I'll have to look
- 1:10:05rest stops though. Yeah.
- 1:10:09Was it was some scene with? So he went to take the dog to
- 1:10:13the park or something Frankie. And I think that's the, I think
- 1:10:17that's one of the last things that I read, but I'm not sure if
- 1:10:21whatever fight it was was actually after that are before.
- 1:10:26Not that guy's head. It was because I did enjoy that
- 1:10:30because he was the, the Frank Frankie and bar that that is
- 1:10:37something that I've been enjoying that they've been doing
- 1:10:4244 for the last little while. I feel like we're like what the
- 1:10:45chapters is. Like they've been kind of doing
- 1:10:47some little like, size stories with different characters.
- 1:10:50Are they being like mixing and matching characters of like I
- 1:10:53would have never thought I wanted to see a chapter about
- 1:10:57Frank and bond. Both trying to pick up some
- 1:11:01chicks at the park. That's what I'm saying.
- 1:11:04I don't want to say that. The last thing I read, but then
- 1:11:06I feel like there's more after that.
- 1:11:08I want to say there there, there is, there is, I gotta fit, then
- 1:11:12I got to figure out if what I read was before after, because
- 1:11:14then I don't know if whatever happened on the ship was before
- 1:11:18after that was before their crew has a for that, okay?
- 1:11:22So then maybe I think that might have been where I last left was
- 1:11:25just them at the park cuz I know cuz it was the it was Make sure
- 1:11:30that that ship thing was a pretty long Arc, but that at 10,
- 1:11:35it was very light. And that's when you really see
- 1:11:37your like pushed to her limits, like, I would like, I cannot
- 1:11:42wait to see that Innovative, dude.
- 1:11:43Yeah, that is going to be crazy, and I hope they actually drag it
- 1:11:47out. Like, I feel like that should be
- 1:11:48like, at least like six, seven episodes.
- 1:11:52Like, yeah. I would love to see that drawn.
- 1:11:56I mean literally take your time with that because we see how
- 1:12:00goaded your is. Yes yes.
- 1:12:03We see how like we see why she is the dike top assassin.
- 1:12:07Yes, seriously do. So let me see real quick cuz cuz
- 1:12:12yeah because so it was the ship stuff.
- 1:12:15Then we got Lloyd's flashback. Yes, we got his back story,
- 1:12:21pretty much. Yeah, we got his backstory, I
- 1:12:24always notic now, you know, like we've kind of gotten his, you
- 1:12:29know, there's something tragic, whatever happened with Lloyd,
- 1:12:32Bella, things? Like yes to to get like that
- 1:12:35level of detail over cross like several chapters.
- 1:12:38It's good that that was also it ofcourse wasn't as long as the
- 1:12:41ship thing, but it was still at least like maybe like a handful
- 1:12:44of chapters. Yeah.
- 1:12:46Of like seeing him his childhood with his friends and How he end
- 1:12:50up, becoming the wild light and all that stuff?
- 1:12:54That was just like really dope and I'm like, am I okay I'm
- 1:12:57enjoying these. Okay, let's kind of take some
- 1:13:00time. We had a nice long arc on the
- 1:13:03ship with your and all that stuff.
- 1:13:05Now this kind of slow down and kind of go character by
- 1:13:08character and likes of got Lloyd's backstory and I think we
- 1:13:13might have had made by something else.
- 1:13:14A little small in there but then we also had the Frankie and
- 1:13:18bond. After yeah, and I'll try to
- 1:13:23think it was either before or after birthday.
- 1:13:25They were kind of like, the Frank and ba thing was kind of
- 1:13:28back to back. There was like a, a ayiiia with
- 1:13:32the head teacher chapter. I want to say, I saw, I think
- 1:13:37like he did he take her home? It was something I did, he take
- 1:13:41into taking her home to the apartment, or something like
- 1:13:42that, something like that because it, I'm talking if it
- 1:13:46was some scenario as to why I think on your head, Maybe.
- 1:13:52I don't what's a detention, it was something it was something
- 1:13:57but but yeah, it was something like, let's they'll to having a
- 1:14:01little chap together. Which like I said, once again,
- 1:14:03I'm like, okay, I didn't know, I would want a chapter freaking
- 1:14:07Anya and the head teacher together, like I said, just like
- 1:14:11Frankie. I'm oh yeah.
- 1:14:11He wanted to like, like, I guess promised her treats or something
- 1:14:15if he would, if she would help out, I think it was it was
- 1:14:17something like that. Maybe I have read, maybe I have
- 1:14:20read ahead. So but now, there, Yeah, so but
- 1:14:28there has been something else since then I won't even say what
- 1:14:34it is. But I'll say I based off of the
- 1:14:38little bit we just talked about, I know that you're going to love
- 1:14:41it, so feel free whenever you read.
- 1:14:44The last couple chapters, it's your boy up because it's gonna
- 1:14:47be something that you're going to want to talk about.
- 1:14:49And I'll just tease it at that. So, what is my credit now?
- 1:14:53But I'm just, like, I got. Okay, gotta catch it.
- 1:14:55I gotta catch up then, because I've been I'll into the my hair
- 1:14:59of my God I can't even spell. Yeah yeah because Buy in the
- 1:15:03thing and the thing with Spotify until I think they're kind of
- 1:15:06also like sometimes makes you forget like where you are worth
- 1:15:09it because I like my hair a lot of stuff.
- 1:15:11Spy family isn't weekly. It's something I think it's
- 1:15:14bi-weekly yes like that. Yeah yeah yeah sorry.
- 1:15:17I will kind of like do a chapter every other week and then they
- 1:15:20also throw like a random break-in there as well.
- 1:15:23So yeah, yeah. I'm the same way to work
- 1:15:25sometimes. I'm like, wait a minute.
- 1:15:27A my current a my few weeks. This is Stanley a my car like I
- 1:15:31had to make sure because I kept checking it out.
- 1:15:34Okay. They're not updating.
- 1:15:34So I guess you're gonna break up.
- 1:15:35Yeah. It's like I don't know.
- 1:15:37But now that you say that another have confirmation to
- 1:15:40keep like on to keep reading I'm not - now I can get back in my
- 1:15:46bag with it. That's what I got too.
- 1:15:48And I just love the like the reception that it got.
- 1:15:52I mean, as soon as it hit the streets, the cosplays I think my
- 1:15:58favorite is a family cosplays. I love that like like couples
- 1:16:02and then their kids like I was I was living for it.
- 1:16:06I was like yes this is it. I'm so I hope at AWA that
- 1:16:10there's gonna be some stuff like this is a wa is a bigger
- 1:16:13convention than dream cons. Yeah so I'm excited to see what
- 1:16:17everybody has. Yeah, so excited.

- 1:16:27to because that That was a month before dream.
- 1:16:28Con I met a little girl who was dressed up as on you.
- 1:16:33Oh my God. You're so adorable.
- 1:16:35And I know, of course, I asked him.
- 1:16:37I was like, I was like can I get a picture with her?
- 1:16:39Because she's just so adorable and stuff.
- 1:16:40So but she she just looks so cute and stuff.
- 1:16:43So I got a picture with her bum. can't think of, I think now I'll
- 1:16:54ask. Did you want to talk about the
- 1:16:56my hero stuff or no. I mean, we can like I don't mind
- 1:17:01getting in my bag into the I don't mind it but it's like you
- 1:17:04gotta warn the people because y'all like if we get too much
- 1:17:07into we, Sorry disclaimer we will this class workers were you
- 1:17:14know, like I said, I'll put a little bit of a timestamp that
- 1:17:17way y'all know. Hey from here to here, my hero
- 1:17:21spoiler. So yeah, let's go and just dive
- 1:17:23into it. So and this is are now 11.
- 1:17:28One thing I will say because of, because we're recording this on,
- 1:17:34Saturday. So I haven't read the most
- 1:17:41current chapter which I think the website that I read it on,
- 1:17:47it actually has an updated today but I don't read it until Sunday
- 1:17:50because that's when most of like the panel's come out tomorrow.
- 1:17:54So that so as of the time of recording 364 is the most recent
- 1:17:59chapter but 365 Will Come Out Tomorrow after we recording so
- 1:18:03so just keep that in mind. And a of, you know, something
- 1:18:05else, that's crazy happening a lot.
- 1:18:07Why? Why isn't Robin?
- 1:18:08But Robin, bam talking about XYZ, so just know why, yes?
- 1:18:17So, so yeah, so go ahead, bam, take it away.
- 1:18:20What are your thoughts on the craziness?
- 1:18:22That's been happening in the my hero manga.
- 1:18:26Man, I think that where I'm at with it.
- 1:18:29I need for Him to explain why Ed shot is becoming an organ.
- 1:18:39I just don't understand it. Like, I feel, I researched his
- 1:18:42Quark. Yeah.
- 1:18:43Like, he's, I researched it because I was very, I was highly
- 1:18:46confused. Also, shout-out to help tacos
- 1:18:48out to the Kinzua and Bonnie and Tam like that to you guys
- 1:18:51because they're the ones that are really like bringing these
- 1:18:55my hair discussions to the timeline.
- 1:18:57So she has to have time to do. But with that being said, I we
- 1:19:01were all discussing like What is is it about Ed shots?
- 1:19:05Quirk that he's able to literally become a part of
- 1:19:09someone. I was really.
- 1:19:10So, the ability, the ability escapes me, but the ability is
- 1:19:14actually a sub, like, ability from what it actually is or like
- 1:19:18his main ability to do, it doesn't make sense.
- 1:19:22So, I need four This mangaka like please I need for you to
- 1:19:28explain to me how this is going to work because I honestly feel
- 1:19:31like bringing back and go back to life as an asshole.
- 1:19:33I just not that I would be okay if he stayed dead but it would
- 1:19:38just make more sense and I think that that would be a huge
- 1:19:43Catalyst for decos like hero like origin and why and he
- 1:19:48became the, you know, number one hero like it a best friend Beth.
- 1:19:53I feel like that is not. That is vital.
- 1:19:55But we see that in so many different animes.
- 1:19:58And we see how that shapes the character, and it unlocks,
- 1:20:02whatever innate nature that they have inside of them to really
- 1:20:06persevere. And that's them.
- 1:20:08That's their daily motivation. I just don't understand.
- 1:20:11I just I see what by Peugeot died and it's fine.
- 1:20:14Like, okay. But what is it about Edge shot?
- 1:20:18Like like, make it like what? Like, huh.
- 1:20:22And I think that that's what I'm just kind of like Like it's
- 1:20:26getting weird. It's getting weird because it's
- 1:20:31just not making sense. Now, they also have discussion
- 1:20:34in the space where they were comparing all for one.
- 1:20:41Yes, they're comparing. I because I love to get that
- 1:20:43mixed up on one for all we. We offer one.
- 1:20:45No. So you're comparing all for
- 1:20:46ones, like random charge up with Ares Quirk to block a goat's ass
- 1:20:53pull of Resurrection. And I feel as though.
- 1:20:57Of course, we need that from offer one.
- 1:21:01I mean, I've, I honestly feel like it would have been too easy
- 1:21:05for him to have been defeated like that by the, I think he's
- 1:21:09Endeavor. Yeah, I think that's that kind
- 1:21:11of food. It's not fun because now I'm
- 1:21:12thinking it was I think was Endeavor because now because I'm
- 1:21:16getting, I'm getting the pedals mixed up.
- 1:21:17It's like what's he fighting Hawks?
- 1:21:20Or was it, your socks? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:21:25And so I feel like that made more sense.
- 1:21:30I feel like that he need he needed to do that as a last
- 1:21:33resort even though he's erasing himself pretty much by using
- 1:21:37that by using Aries Quirk, I'm excited like I'm sorry, like I
- 1:21:43love a huge boss. I Love A desperate villain.
- 1:21:46I love someone that would by any means because I mean, it's the
- 1:21:51same on that side to is the same on the heroes side, like, by any
- 1:21:53means necessary. We saw what happened when stars
- 1:21:55would start Stars and Stripes. Yeah.
- 1:21:57So what happened with stars and stripes we saw?
- 1:22:00What happened with even midnight and everything that happened.
- 1:22:06So I'm excited to see that these villains are not given up.
- 1:22:11Like they it's two sides of the same coin, so I'm I'm very
- 1:22:15excited to see all for one and how he's going to like try to
- 1:22:21obliterate everybody but I'm also I'm just I'm just really
- 1:22:25I'm really disappointed in this Edge, shot thing.
- 1:22:27Like I just it's not clicking and I need for this next panel
- 1:22:31to dive into it. Yeah.
- 1:22:34Cuz I cuz cuz I feel like wow, of course, people know still
- 1:22:40would have been, you know, upset or still would have caused an
- 1:22:43uproar like it. Now with Michael coming back,
- 1:22:46but I feel like even if it was like oh surprise deck whose
- 1:22:51final Quark has some Resurrection thing that would
- 1:22:54have been a better explanation, whatever versus like, oh my
- 1:22:58whole person is going to now I'm gonna be his heart, his heart.
- 1:23:05I want to be looking to him. I would have been, I would have
- 1:23:07been best genus like Like I'm like, I'm like, did he did he
- 1:23:12write the singer, Nick additional.
- 1:23:13I'm like, he really come up with him.
- 1:23:17Yeah. Because I don't know, it just
- 1:23:19brings up so many questions because it's like is okay, like
- 1:23:24Is, is he going to fully cease to exist or is he gonna be like,
- 1:23:29still be able to, like, talk with the Ambassador?
- 1:23:33You like, is it gonna be a part of his Consciousness?
- 1:23:36Like it's gonna be a subconscious like and I mean,
- 1:23:39well, he does. He have the ability to uncork
- 1:23:42himself to be a heart. Like what he be able to?
- 1:23:45Because at the end of the day, we're still gonna have to heal
- 1:23:47Bach ago, they got to feel his body up.
- 1:23:49So somehow they're going to have to actually seal him and
- 1:23:52everything. So on top of the head, Becoming
- 1:23:54this Oregon. How are you?
- 1:23:55Good. How are you going to be
- 1:23:56protected within this human body?
- 1:23:58Yes. So I don't know how that's going
- 1:24:01to be explained and I'm just like, you know, and to be a
- 1:24:04heart to pump blood like the are you becoming something Hollow
- 1:24:07like yeah? How.
- 1:24:09Because at the end of the day I feel like the heart isn't it is
- 1:24:13an inanimate object, that's how I feel.
- 1:24:15I feel like it relies on everything else like everything
- 1:24:17else in our body so it's like are you just going to be a thing
- 1:24:21like It is, yeah, it is. It's just so weird on so many
- 1:24:29levels, because, and especially just because effective like, it
- 1:24:32is a shot. Now, once again, like I said,
- 1:24:36top top of the list of like stuff that people proud of maybe
- 1:24:39saw coming was okay. Hey deck, was last Quark, Hills
- 1:24:42him, somehow Deku shows up on my God, Michael goes dead.
- 1:24:46Last car locks. Boom, he's back.
- 1:24:48Exactly below that. I would also think because they
- 1:24:53have her Ship best genius somehow is using his thread or
- 1:24:58something with that. We're able to revive him.
- 1:25:00Also versus like I said, it's just like, you know, it would be
- 1:25:03different if it was like, if Bach go and turned with a shot
- 1:25:10or whatever versus best jeans because it's like, okay, they
- 1:25:13have a relationship. That's what I was thinking, too.
- 1:25:16Because I just I, like, I've never really seen Ed shot and
- 1:25:19vodka go interacts like that. Yeah. yeah, like Like I said,
- 1:25:26there's so many questions. A lot of us in the community,
- 1:25:28have a lot of questions about this because it just really
- 1:25:31seems like he just he wanted Baca go to live by and I get it
- 1:25:37but it's kind of like me personally.
- 1:25:39Yeah Buck ago is everybody's favorite.
- 1:25:41Buckle is like the fan favorite for me?
- 1:25:45Yeah I get it but at the same time, Him dying.
- 1:25:53Okay, like, all right, like sweet kid.
- 1:25:58But I mean, shit happens, you know?
- 1:26:02And I was, I was okay with it. Like, I hated it, I hated when
- 1:26:04he died, but I was also very accepting of it because it's
- 1:26:06just like, man. Like as many times as I've seen
- 1:26:09characters die that I didn't want to.
- 1:26:11Yeah, what makes Baca go any different, you know, I mean what
- 1:26:14really makes him any different and I could like I said with the
- 1:26:17anticipation of tomorrow I'm going to be like glued to my
- 1:26:21laptop. Somebody what?
- 1:26:23I need the explanation. Yeah, I just don't know what
- 1:26:27direction the storyline is going in.
- 1:26:29Now, I just think that everybody's kind of like in this
- 1:26:33waiting room with it, kind of like, Like, I don't even know
- 1:26:37what to say, you know, I'm not I'm just not entirely sure like
- 1:26:40what, what what what's the motive at this?
- 1:26:43Like you know what I mean? And plus it also just kind of
- 1:26:48just like once again it's like you know it's like okay like
- 1:26:51we're dealing with all for one and sugar Rocky.
- 1:26:54Supposedly this get these if you know, if the series truly is at
- 1:26:59its end, okay? Then it should be expected of
- 1:27:02hey, there's gonna be some major casualties across the Word
- 1:27:06that's going to happen but it's like I feel like you know things
- 1:27:13started kind of like turn a bit, even going back to a while back
- 1:27:18when Mario got his Quirk back. Yeah, it was like okay once
- 1:27:24again yeah I love Mario but is also that thing of like
- 1:27:28consequences or whatever now is I okay.
- 1:27:30All right, here you go. Mario music.
- 1:27:33Work back once again we we always need those positive
- 1:27:36potential possibility especially with when you have a character
- 1:27:39like Airy in the series you know, the stuff like this is
- 1:27:43possible but it's like all right.
- 1:27:45He's coming back into the picture and then it's like oh
- 1:27:49you know, our bucket goes dead. No, he's not and so now it kind
- 1:27:54of like sucks out some of that tension.
- 1:27:57Now, as we continue to march on towards the end of the series of
- 1:28:00like okay, now if anybody else dies quote-unquote.
- 1:28:05Yeah. You know, it might take some
- 1:28:08wind out of the sails because now I was like, okay, it's, you
- 1:28:11know, it's somebody else going to sacrifice themselves and hey
- 1:28:16is is wash going to use one of his bubbles to?
- 1:28:19That's what I'm saying? Like how How Deep The
- 1:28:22rabbit-hole? How did this Rabbit Hole gonna
- 1:28:24go? Because it's like the it just
- 1:28:30makes me seem like the nobody else's death was for nothing.
- 1:28:32To like it just kind of like I get it, you know, their kids,
- 1:28:36They want them to live because they're the future and like
- 1:28:38they're like, they get it, they're the adults.
- 1:28:40And this is what, you know, this is what they've been pretty much
- 1:28:43running for their whole entire lives.
- 1:28:44Yeah, but I mean, for me class 1 egg was not ready for this.
- 1:28:49I just don't, I mean and they know that classmate was not
- 1:28:52ready for this at all. Because if Stars if the number
- 1:28:55one here in America than lost it is man.
- 1:28:59These kids in school. What are you doing?
- 1:29:02And I mean they're, of course, he's of course, they're gonna
- 1:29:04have plot armor and they're going to be just fine and
- 1:29:06they're going to somehow overcome.
- 1:29:08But I honestly, I said, I would have been okay with Bach ago,
- 1:29:12dying. I mean it would have been weird
- 1:29:14but I would have been okay with it.
- 1:29:15Now if these little kids have to fight in the elementary school
- 1:29:18where? Yeah, where his history.
- 1:29:25Oh my God, like Dad. No, that's gonna break me now.
- 1:29:29That we know these kids can box because we saw them when it was
- 1:29:33vodka, go turn around key and all is what is icy hot name.
- 1:29:38What is Showtime? What is that little boy named
- 1:29:41showed. Oh yeah Todoroki there we go.
- 1:29:43I'm gonna call the Social role that social role, the Roki &
- 1:29:49Deco, and all that. Yeah.
- 1:29:50When they all had to like pretty much babysit them.
- 1:29:52Yeah. So that time was crazy.
- 1:29:56I loved it. I loved.
- 1:29:57In a little kids quirks. Now they have to start boxing.
- 1:30:00Now that already child maybe I'll just need to go ahead and
- 1:30:03surrender because yes, the leave the villains or whatever the
- 1:30:08hell it is and read Astro this, they all of that.
- 1:30:12Just go ahead and give up, don't give up because if these little
- 1:30:15kids got to get into, got to get into it and getting that Thunder
- 1:30:18like I'm over here. Like yeah, so, well well, well
- 1:30:25I'm down. I'm really I do. right here, I
- 1:30:28need to see the direction it's going in because I'm not sure.
- 1:30:34I don't trust, I'm not trusting it right now.
- 1:30:37Like I don't trust it right now. I don't trust it.
- 1:30:42Yeah. And, and, and I'm curious.
- 1:30:47I'm curious like how much longer we do have to go, you know, at
- 1:30:52this point because, you know, like, because it's okay, we're
- 1:30:57at the beginning September. Now, you know, his height by
- 1:31:00Christmas time. Is this thing gonna be done or,
- 1:31:03you know, as it goes, that's what I'm saying.
- 1:31:04Continue bothered by the early, next year, whatever, but we'll
- 1:31:09see. That's what I'm saying.
- 1:31:12I'm trying to figure out like is this going to end it?
- 1:31:14Like I've been going to end it with this or what are we going
- 1:31:16to see after they're gonna hike? Are we going to get a fucking
- 1:31:19boruto type shit? Like what are we doing here?
- 1:31:21Like what is my hero doing? Yeah, cuz I'm lying because that
- 1:31:25that that is always been my curiosity to is like It it's
- 1:31:31just typical shown in, you know, there's got to be an end of
- 1:31:36series time. Skip to where we see everybody
- 1:31:40older and stuff. So you know, now whether like
- 1:31:43you said, whether it turns into a boruto situation and now we're
- 1:31:48following them as adults, or whatever.
- 1:31:50Now, and their kids and stuff or, you know, or if we're to do,
- 1:31:54you know, like, like a lot of the students do it to reside,
- 1:31:58okay, the main story wrapped up, Then the Final Chapter to his
- 1:32:01like, hey here's a Time skip so you can just see, here's what
- 1:32:03everybody looks like. Older and who married, who or
- 1:32:07whatever and then that it, you know, so well, we'll see.
- 1:32:12But I, I know it's coming. That's not why I'm so curious to
- 1:32:18see how this is gonna go to. Like, I like, are we going to
- 1:32:22have a new villain introduced to us after all for one?
- 1:32:25And we're all from one had a boss too much.
- 1:32:27Just like, all right, it's going to be that Daniel stinger.
- 1:32:29It's like I guess I'll do it. Myself type shit at the end of
- 1:32:31the credits. Like are we gonna have one of
- 1:32:34those? Like how is my hero going to end
- 1:32:38if it even ends but I just won't even know what else they could
- 1:32:41do with it though. I think that it is like where it
- 1:32:44is. It's fine.
- 1:32:45Like I think that it's been a very good run but if they have
- 1:32:48anything else up their sleeve, I'm ready to see that to like
- 1:32:52yeah. Like I said we're going to order
- 1:32:54them, have it, they know situation where he's gonna be
- 1:32:55like I'll just do it myself. Yeah.
- 1:32:57Who's the boss of all for one? I feel like he Somebody.
- 1:33:00There's some of the he has to answer to.
- 1:33:03I feel we haven't seen the last of that crazy-ass doctor either.
- 1:33:06Oh, yeah. Oh yeah.
- 1:33:08Oh yeah, yeah. Hehe hehe definitely are.
- 1:33:13He definitely still plotting and scheming?
- 1:33:16That's what I'm saying. Like and I'm and I'm I wonder
- 1:33:20are we going to see anything about Arie though?
- 1:33:22Are we going to see anything about her?
- 1:33:24Like I wouldn't mind a spin-off show of her.
- 1:33:27I would watch that. I I'd watch that like Deco
- 1:33:30taking her in as like his own childhood like a little sister
- 1:33:32or something like maybe a few turns evil to.
- 1:33:36I don't know. My kind of like Curious.
- 1:33:38Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:33:40That that'll be good. Yeah, so we we we we shall see
- 1:33:45where I were the my hero road takes us and stuff.
- 1:33:50So real quick as far as for myself some stuff I've been
- 1:33:57Watching lately on I think, oh, today.
- 1:34:02I had caught up on her because I was three episodes behind.
- 1:34:05I had caught up on. It's pronounced a look.
- 1:34:10Lycoris recoil. Okay.
- 1:34:14That's so kind of heard about that.
- 1:34:16Yeah, that that show omit we're winding down because I thought
- 1:34:21the way after I watch these last three episodes.
- 1:34:23Because episode, yes, 70 or 80. And one of the somewhere in
- 1:34:27there. Whatever.
- 1:34:30I think that this might be it it.
- 1:34:31Because as far as I understand, I think that this is a anime
- 1:34:34only Series, so it's not based on a manga anime only series and
- 1:34:40okay, I've been really enjoying it and stuff.
- 1:34:43So and like I said, it kind of worked out perfectly me being
- 1:34:46behind these three episodes goes through these three episodes
- 1:34:50strength together really well. So so that was really good, glad
- 1:34:53to be caught up on that. Of course, and I'm not going to
- 1:35:00go into it too much water, but I'll just say, summertime
- 1:35:02rendering still crazy. Yeah, listen, I gotta get into
- 1:35:07that, man. I have to like, rob a husband
- 1:35:10like other Rob definitely was like the Bingham?
- 1:35:12What are you doing right now? Why are you not?
- 1:35:17I'll say it would definitely be a very good binge-watch as well,
- 1:35:22just because you won't have the weekly torture and speculation
- 1:35:30and stuff, but I'll just say that, that sure is very good, is
- 1:35:35it? Been pretty, pretty much good
- 1:35:37from episode 1 and it has continued thoroughly all the way
- 1:35:41through to continue to be good. So so yeah.
- 1:35:45So that this mushroom episode 21 was what was yesterday still
- 1:35:50very good. What else I watch this week?
- 1:35:55New episode of made in the best also very good but also
- 1:35:58continues to be very messed up. It's something I'm so scared to
- 1:36:01start that dude. Like somebody met somebody
- 1:36:03suggested for somebody, suggested it.
- 1:36:05It to me like two, three years ago and I'm like I don't know if
- 1:36:11I want to do this so quick questions.
- 1:36:13You haven't seen any of made in the bishop, I'm so scared.
- 1:36:17I'm so scared to do it. Like it's about kids, right?
- 1:36:20Like there's kids as the main characters.
- 1:36:22Yes, he listened when it comes to kids I'm like oh my gosh like
- 1:36:25anything. You torture killing listen cuz I
- 1:36:27watched what is that? What is it?
- 1:36:29Was it called? What's it called?
- 1:36:30It is escaping me. What is it called?
- 1:36:33Well, his name is Fushigi. I'll tell your eternity to your
- 1:36:37attorney and after March, I'm like, oh my God, like, oh my
- 1:36:43God. Like if I need to start making
- 1:36:46Abyss, I just need, I get this might have been my confirmation
- 1:36:49because I know Rome has started it.
- 1:36:53And Janice is like get into it, you talking about it.
- 1:36:57If I hop on this bandwagon y'all are gonna have to pick me up off
- 1:36:59the floor though. I start this.
- 1:37:01Y'all pick me up off the floor after I'm crying.
- 1:37:02I'm crying like yeah, it is. Yeah, I also like I was, you
- 1:37:08know, cause like--'cause I had her because, you know, shout out
- 1:37:12to my friend because she she has when I went and visited her
- 1:37:17husband, or family, or are they this year, whatever we went and
- 1:37:20hunted down because she was trying to collect all of the
- 1:37:23manga volumes of stuff whatever. And so she's been reading it.
- 1:37:26And so I've known from her as well as also.
- 1:37:30Shout out to K sake and chibi from a three-week.
- 1:37:36God, they also read it. I've heard from all of them,
- 1:37:38I've like y'all thought season was messed up and they weren't,
- 1:37:44they weren't lying because I can see season one.
- 1:37:46Definitely, it's pretty much as it just like as it goes on and
- 1:37:50it just wraps up as it goes on. And then it's like season two.
- 1:37:56It just as I remember season one, let's turn the dial up
- 1:38:01several notches and so, so, yeah.
- 1:38:05So Highly recommended by yeah, it definitely is definitely one
- 1:38:09of those shows of like, you know, don't judge a book by it's
- 1:38:12cover because like you said, I always got some kids on the
- 1:38:15cover and like a Fantastical setting.
- 1:38:19It is not, it is not a family, it is a kid-friendly, all it is
- 1:38:25not, it's not happy. Go lucky at all made in Abyss.
- 1:38:28You know. I have any wash it and I've
- 1:38:30heard about it and I'm still like, yeah.
- 1:38:33Like oh my God, I'm scared. But I started after I start
- 1:38:40class with a length of the tube. Okay.
- 1:38:42How are ya? I started and I can, we can come
- 1:38:45back and get talk about it because I don't mind it.
- 1:38:47Yes, for sure. How about, The first episode.
- 1:38:51Oh, the the first honestly, I was saying the first like couple
- 1:38:58episodes or pretty chill just because it's just kind of like,
- 1:39:01hey, here's the, here's the setup for what this world is and
- 1:39:06what's going on? Because basically a lot of like
- 1:39:09the craziness that's really starting to like they actually
- 1:39:11start going into the abyss. And so those first couple
- 1:39:15episodes just like, hey, here's the world of.
- 1:39:18Here's the backstory in the the lower of what the abyss is.
- 1:39:22And then once the actual journey into the abyss begins, that's
- 1:39:28when that's when it gets real. Yes.
- 1:39:33Yes. So but that they figure out pain
- 1:39:35is and I watch it higher. You kind of get like they kind
- 1:39:39of at least like try to like paint like a general brief like
- 1:39:44picture and idea of what might come because they explain like
- 1:39:48so like in early episodes Like, hey, this is the abyss and these
- 1:39:52are the rules as you go down to each different layer.
- 1:39:56There are consequences of certain things that happen
- 1:40:00occurred. Basically, it's a curse.
- 1:40:03There's layers to be a best. Yes, there's layers to this
- 1:40:06Darkness. Yes as hell, no, yes.
- 1:40:11So hit /. Pretty pretty much.
- 1:40:12It is just these kids descending into a giant hole in the middle
- 1:40:16in the Earth with all Types of creatures and let our people go
- 1:40:22to hell. That's exactly what they said.
- 1:40:25Let pretty much the hell pretty much so by our assumption
- 1:40:31Avenue. Yeah, boy.
- 1:40:34Yeah. That would be going to him.
- 1:40:50I'm sick of the eye. I have monkey covid pops.
- 1:40:56That's what I got and that's what I'm going to Clan.
- 1:40:58I got the covert op. Okay, listen monkey. 19 covid,
- 1:41:05all that Parks, Parks covid. Bucky, that's what I got.
- 1:41:10Caught covid. Monkey monkey night in the
- 1:41:14monkey 19. Then what else?
- 1:41:21How on a little bit more lighthearted know.
- 1:41:25Also, of course to the bench still been enjoying jacuzzi has
- 1:41:28got to babysitting so that that that's on the that's on my
- 1:41:32wholesome list of recommendations.
- 1:41:36Yes, cuz I love that word around here, yes.
- 1:41:39So, you know I also it would be a good companion piece to a
- 1:41:46summer time, rendering or a maid in the best.
- 1:41:49All right, I just watched some crazy stuff that's kind of let's
- 1:41:54let's watch some. Some kind of operator stuff.
- 1:41:58Yes, so sorry I said you kids got the babysitting which I have
- 1:42:03come. Have you heard of that one?
- 1:42:06I've heard of that one. Yes, I do not touched it.
- 1:42:09So pretty much it follows a, it follows a Jacuzzi family and one
- 1:42:16of the main characters, Kirishima.
- 1:42:20That's his name. He's basically, he's basically
- 1:42:23known as the demon of this Yakuza family because he is just
- 1:42:27like ruthless No Holds Barred. Hey, if kirishima has to come
- 1:42:33and deal with you, it's not going to be pretty to be so
- 1:42:36efficient. Well, as a way to kind of help,
- 1:42:40bring them down a couple of notches and kind of help mellow
- 1:42:42him out of bed that you Cruiser boss science, in my new role of
- 1:42:48Watch. His daughter and so it becomes
- 1:42:52it becomes this really cool mix of you know you do still get
- 1:42:56this like the action stuff whatever when they go out and do
- 1:43:01your Coos of stuff but you also kind of get to see this
- 1:43:05character kind of like slowly you know change and stuff as he
- 1:43:10is getting to know this daughter Kathy I think I think she is
- 1:43:15seven or eight and so know. Just some kind of have it to,
- 1:43:20you know, take her to school, and even know they're baking
- 1:43:25together and other little cute flowers.
- 1:43:27So, so that's been like a, like a nice little watch Slice of
- 1:43:31Life. Yes.
- 1:43:32For for me, every day, every day, or every day, every week.
- 1:43:38What else? Also caught up on.
- 1:43:43Did I catch it? I might be.
- 1:43:46No. I'm I paused Midway through the
- 1:43:49most recent episode, but I've been watching more of a Call of
- 1:43:53the night tonight. There's been a lot of what I've
- 1:43:57been actually re-watching. Marvel movies actually like I
- 1:44:02caught a kind of nice little X-Men marathon on FX and then
- 1:44:07Deadpool came on. Yes.
- 1:44:09So I've just been kind of like that kind of respond to like
- 1:44:12because I love X-Men, that's my favorite Marvel like And I'm
- 1:44:16happy that hopefully they're tying everything in together.
- 1:44:19Hopefully one day I need from our I need for X-Men to really
- 1:44:22become candid. And like the more I will
- 1:44:24Universe because I don't know why not.
- 1:44:26But yeah I caught it so I watch I end up watching I didn't watch
- 1:44:31the last and I end up watching like the first X-Men where they
- 1:44:35introduced Rogue when she was like killing people and shit.
- 1:44:38That was the one then I washed and the watching the awful dark
- 1:44:42Phoenix. I still watch that.
- 1:44:45Chocolate. Yes, I watched apocalypse.
- 1:44:49And I watch which one is this one?
- 1:44:53Which one is that one? Was this the one?
- 1:44:57Where was it apocalypse? That was the same one.
- 1:45:02Was it up now? I'm getting my movies mixed up.
- 1:45:04It's the one where it was Quicksilver, came and saved
- 1:45:08everybody from the house. Blue wind up.
- 1:45:11What's wrong with that one? Why is was that first class?
- 1:45:16I think it was first class. Think it was first class.
- 1:45:21Pretty sure was yeah. So I re-watched like I was
- 1:45:25watching that whole Marathon him that and I was just like, man, I
- 1:45:30like, X-Men has my heart, I'm just very eager to see who
- 1:45:35they're going to cast as Wolverine now because I mean
- 1:45:38that's job security like Hugh Jackman had job security with
- 1:45:42that. And I feel like the only person
- 1:45:44that I can honestly see, being Wolverine would be, but he might
- 1:45:49be too old would be like, Gerard Butler.
- 1:45:51I could see that. People are saying Zac Efron and
- 1:45:56I'm like, I don't know about that one.
- 1:46:01I mean, sure, sure, but either because the aggregate Zac Efron,
- 1:46:06being that actually who I wouldn't mind being who I
- 1:46:10wouldn't mind seeing be. The Wolverine is, but he's
- 1:46:13already Venom the guy that it's venom Tom Hardy, something like
- 1:46:19that. Something like the name is Tom.
- 1:46:21I could, I could kind of see him being Wolverine.
- 1:46:24I don't know. Maybe, I'm just kind of like
- 1:46:25just naming off random white men with dark hair but I can
- 1:46:30definitely see him. Maybe being a pretty okay,
- 1:46:32Wolverine real quick because because, because because I'm
- 1:46:37great, I'm glad you brought up the the X-Men and Marvel stuff
- 1:46:41cuz and and more than like Erica, I think things were time
- 1:46:45out for or Tom out perfectly between.
- 1:46:50When this up, is this podcast? Episode comes out.
- 1:46:52And when I record next, Is next Friday is d23.
- 1:46:57So Marvel is gonna be having a lot of announcements and stuff.
- 1:47:01And so you mentioned the X-Men thing, one thing I want to kind
- 1:47:03of put on people's radar to make sure of course more than likely
- 1:47:07if you listen to this podcast and you are nerd like as you
- 1:47:10probably already have seen the rumors or the news or whatever,
- 1:47:14but some people that they have kind of been like teasing or
- 1:47:18going to be getting introduced until like the next phase of the
- 1:47:22MCU. And petitioner.
- 1:47:24Some of the X-Men stuff. Denzel Washington.
- 1:47:31Giancarlo Esposito which does y'all.
- 1:47:35If y'all know how much I love Giancarlo for his role in Better
- 1:47:43Call Saul and breaking bad as Gus yo Yo and he's also in the
- 1:47:50boys, right? Yes.
- 1:47:53Yes. You don't really yeah?
- 1:47:56Yes. And so say you're so duck.
- 1:47:58Those two alone. I'm excited about Denzel and
- 1:48:01freaking Giancarlo. Yes who else John boyega here?
- 1:48:09Whoa. Yeah.
- 1:48:12Okay. Heavy Hitters Henry Cavill Of
- 1:48:17course, and that they got some other people here are listed by
- 1:48:22came through like some of these names, I recognize, but I don't
- 1:48:24really know know, like, I got a jaw Krasinski, don't really know
- 1:48:29him. John Krasinski, is he played in
- 1:48:32the office so we were the guys, okay?
- 1:48:47Oh, John Krasinski. We're back but yes.

- 1:48:56Okay, I recognize him Daisy, Edgar Jones, not sure.
- 1:49:02Who that is and Jody Comer don't recognize her either, but but
- 1:49:09the other one is Denzel Giancarlo Henry, Cowboy, John
- 1:49:12boyega. Roof, Henry Cavill.
- 1:49:16So that's magnate No no no Henry Cavill he played.
- 1:49:24He played Superman Superman. Yeah Superman I get those two
- 1:49:28mixed up all the time. I get the actors for Superman
- 1:49:31and Magneto mixed up Michael Fassbender.
- 1:49:38Not even the same. That's.
- 1:49:41Yeah. So Superman is going to be an
- 1:49:45infant Superman in Marble. Yeah.
- 1:49:48And I'm I'm the the two that I am like And and I feel, I think
- 1:49:56most of this is just like, you know, fans hoping whatever, but
- 1:50:00it seems like a lot of speculation is maybe Giancarlo
- 1:50:05Esposito and doesn't Washington being Magneto and Professor X.
- 1:50:12Now, I don't even know how I don't.
- 1:50:18Who's gonna be bald. That's what I'm going to ask,
- 1:50:21who's going to be the Baldwin. Yeah, maybe John definitely
- 1:50:26needs to be Magneto. There's no way he can be.
- 1:50:29I'm sorry. You're not going to be
- 1:50:30president. I don't need that from you.
- 1:50:32I need you to be Magneto. I need the Menace.
- 1:50:35Yes, that's what I need. Oh no, real quick.
- 1:50:40All right. Back had to take a look.
- 1:50:42Thing because bash can run it in crime.
- 1:50:44I wouldn't know what is going on the baby and a band.
- 1:50:48Nothing to eat. The older kids was playing some
- 1:50:50type of game where they I guess they were ton of the lice off
- 1:50:53whatever and it freaked him out. And so he was like us because he

- 1:52:25from when this one posts up, but either way, your boy will bring
- 1:52:29you all the news when it happens.
- 1:52:33That stuff so bomb. But I'm I'm very excited about.
- 1:52:36I'm excited about that whole event.
- 1:52:37In general likes, of course, all the MCU news and stuff but also
- 1:52:42There's supposed to be some some Marvel video game related news
- 1:52:45to there as well. So I'm curious to see what all
- 1:52:49is going to happen and pop off on that front.
- 1:52:53Right? What other oh I know know this.
- 1:52:57I was going to ask you because I think I saw that you wash this
- 1:53:01or maybe. I'm maybe I'm thinking about
- 1:53:03somebody else but did you watch Shoot Sandman.
- 1:53:11I don't watch saying, man. I know I'm going to say who was
- 1:53:15it? That did what I saw the
- 1:53:17discussions on it. I thought about, I thought about
- 1:53:20it. Yeah, I thought about it because
- 1:53:24it's okay. Okay, cuz I'm wanting to watch
- 1:53:27the latest season of the boy. That's what I want.
- 1:53:29That's what I need to. Go ahead and wire.
- 1:53:31Oh yes. There's an act.
- 1:53:34Cause everybody's my baby daddy, Jensen.
- 1:53:36Ackles. Listen.
- 1:53:38I need to get on that. I need to, I need to, I know.
- 1:53:41I was probably like you haven't watched and I'm like can I go at
- 1:53:46my own pace? Now listen, I don't pay, they
- 1:53:49need to put it on Netflix. So you need to put it on Amazon
- 1:53:53Prime, put it on Netflix green, but I'm excited to see Jensen,
- 1:53:58Ackles. Like I, you know, I didn't
- 1:54:01really keep up with his stuff after Supernatural, because I
- 1:54:03was, like, I watched a natural and I loved his acting there now
- 1:54:08that he's in the voice. Yeah.
- 1:54:11And I heard he gives Homeland or run for his motherfucking money.
- 1:54:14So I'm red social averring, he's a problem.
- 1:54:18You the problem we are, I got to because I mean like I'm just I'm
- 1:54:24so I'm so sick of Homeland or I'm just like you would show
- 1:54:27damn daddy mommy sister brother issues like I am supposed to be
- 1:54:31your ass like you are literally a white man throwing a tantrum
- 1:54:35that's all you're doing. You're just an angry white man,
- 1:54:38throwing a tantrum who can shoot lasers out of his eyes.
- 1:54:41And I remember on the TL, they are like man.
- 1:54:43They were trying to do, of course, power scaling.
- 1:54:45You know, there's a mature lightness, niggas trying to
- 1:54:47power scale with Homeland and I'm like, literally everybody
- 1:54:52else in any other universe is whooping his ass, even the real
- 1:54:58Superman is whooping his ass. Like, what are y'all talking
- 1:55:02about? Batman is whooping his ass.
- 1:55:07Like what are you to March? From to your eternity.
- 1:55:21I got to make a note cause I gotta I'm a mom.
- 1:55:25I'm a power stay. I'ma try to remember later.
- 1:55:29I'm a post just like a picture of just like March and Homeland
- 1:55:33or and I'm gonna tag you and just maybe with no other
- 1:55:38contexts and just see where people were people think just
- 1:55:41like Marching Home liner and then send tweet @btcare, okay?
- 1:55:49Because Hey, I'm whipping his ass.
- 1:55:52What are you talking about? I'm whooping his ass like And I
- 1:55:58mean, I just, I actually, one of my homeboys that I work with in
- 1:56:04Jersey, I was telling him. I was like, you need to watch
- 1:56:06the boys, like, if you really like superhero stuff, I'm just
- 1:56:09like, he was like, I've never even heard of it.
- 1:56:11I like never heard of the boy, like, come on, man.
- 1:56:15Everybody here that's watching. If you haven't watched it, which
- 1:56:18most of you probably have, please watch it and watch the
- 1:56:20latest season for me. I need to go ahead and watch it.
- 1:56:22I'm I'm being lazy. I am I'm being lazy.
- 1:56:26Can't even stand up. Spell, it was real quick I'll
- 1:56:29because picking up stuff like superhero shows like that,
- 1:56:31whatever you watch are invincible.
- 1:56:36I don't want to miss but I watched One Division.
- 1:56:38Okay, I watch that one. I think that was like my most I
- 1:56:41didn't watch low-key but I watch long division and I am excited
- 1:56:46to say the least. I am so excited, I'll just
- 1:56:51definitely say, invincible is another high recommendation from
- 1:56:57your boy Rob whooping, everybody's ass.
- 1:56:59It will never be a bride that's but his dad is whooping his ass
- 1:57:02every time. Yes, yes.
- 1:57:04But if it and it The people tell me about it and they're just
- 1:57:06like a panther like his father was like kind of good like he
- 1:57:09was he was going good and all of a sudden he's like reverting
- 1:57:12back to his old ways or something and he whips his son's
- 1:57:14ass all the time. Yeah yeah well that that there
- 1:57:19was more of like a end of the season type of thing but I'm the
- 1:57:26man I'm the man with everybody's ass.
- 1:57:28I saw a clip. Listen I was watching I spot him
- 1:57:31place I'm like this nigga is a menace like oh my gosh like no
- 1:57:36body is spared like yeah. I gotta catch up, man.
- 1:57:43I guess there's so much I haven't like watch but like I
- 1:57:46can only imagine only imagine it was a craze, it was such a
- 1:57:52crazed. Yes, for sure.
- 1:57:55Yes, I'm told that guy, Before because we're probably ready to
- 1:58:01wrap up soon. But before we do you guys get
- 1:58:06any other shows you want to talk about or maybe even any
- 1:58:10recommendations, you might have for the people.
- 1:58:14I've been thinking possibly like, it ain't nothing.
- 1:58:16Like I've been pushing that agenda.
- 1:58:17That's exactly what I've been putting on, keep pushing it.
- 1:58:19Yeah. But are y'all better watch
- 1:58:20classroom with a big goddamn it? That's what I need to watch
- 1:58:24right now. If you haven't watched it, do it
- 1:58:26please like. And if you need, Slice of Life
- 1:58:29anime recommendation. This is my comfort, like, my
- 1:58:32little cover anime, it's called love is hard for otaku and
- 1:58:36they're actually grown people and they're like, over 18 and
- 1:58:40they're not in high school. Yeah.
- 1:58:44Like, living in my corporate, Japan and working, and just
- 1:58:46navigating relationships in life, and you should definitely.
- 1:58:49Definitely watch it. I enjoy it.
- 1:58:51I still enjoy this. Look, your Boise.
- 1:58:53Look, look, I still enjoy it. Like I'm absolutely like in
- 1:58:58love. Like yes, y'all need to go ahead
- 1:59:00and do that with those are my two recommendation.
- 1:59:02I have too much. Read my hero.
- 1:59:04Of course, always be my hero. Please read it.
- 1:59:07Don't wait. Please, don't wait.
- 1:59:11But yeah, like I do, I'm not pushing any agendas right now.
- 1:59:15I'm not pushing any agendas. I think the only agenda that I'm
- 1:59:18pushing is definitely classroom of the elite.
- 1:59:21That's what I'm gonna like end off one because I'm about to go
- 1:59:26watch that second season. I don't know.
- 1:59:28Out to go watch that second season and I guess I'll start
- 1:59:30made in Abyss, I'll probably start pushing that agenda if I
- 1:59:33like it. I'll probably start pushing that
- 1:59:34agenda to. Yeah, for sure.
- 1:59:39And before I end up our guys, I I Gotta Give once again a shout
- 1:59:43out. Shout out to my wife because
- 1:59:44she's been texting over on the sub.
- 1:59:46So my mom, like I all something white Bam off air.
- 1:59:51Before we record it, my wife and her sister.
- 1:59:54My sister-in-law are currently at a Kalani concert.
- 1:59:58So My wife is currently geeking out sending me pictures and
- 2:00:01stuff. I think yep, Kalani just came
- 2:00:05out. So she is a texting away.
- 2:00:09Oh my gosh, send me pictures so much.
- 2:00:12Love to my wife and my sister-in-law last And yeah, I
- 2:00:22think like I said, I think I've gone over pretty much most of my
- 2:00:25highlights for from this last week is for like that watches
- 2:00:29and reading and stuff from I was picking, I need to, I need to
- 2:00:34catch back up on because I started reading a chapter
- 2:00:37because I love it when some series you just forget and not,
- 2:00:43not because it's bad but it's just like life happens.
- 2:00:47Things happen. You can't retain all the
- 2:00:51information like yes we're week yes we're nerds and weaves but
- 2:00:54we're not, you know. Yes.
- 2:00:57But and by yeah I enjoy. When I forget about something
- 2:01:01and then like several chapters, or several episodes have built
- 2:01:05up inside. Oh yeah.
- 2:01:06How far back in my? Oh, I got like five chapters to
- 2:01:09read or I got like five episodes to watch.
- 2:01:11That's always a nice little tree as so that that is me with it's
- 2:01:16a series. I've talked about on here before
- 2:01:17but it's called gotcha. E a Cuda.
- 2:01:22It is what your coochie, what, you got a word that that series
- 2:01:31for for those who do not know the, the author of that?
- 2:01:35She was an assistant to the author who did fire force and
- 2:01:40Soul Eater. So when fire force, when the
- 2:01:44manga for fire force ended earlier this year, her series
- 2:01:48started like a couple weeks later and so the Arthur of fire
- 2:01:51force, kind of gave her his Blessing and he was like hey
- 2:01:55this is my Apprentice basically whatever her new series ringing
- 2:02:01endorsement and I've been enjoying it so far, so but I'm
- 2:02:04like I'm I checked all the time, like five touches behind, so I'm
- 2:02:09excited to read that because if if if you enjoyed fire force You
- 2:02:14go enjoy this series as well because this is, I didn't dry
- 2:02:17fire for it. It has some very dope as similar
- 2:02:21vows with, but different, as well as doing its own thing.
- 2:02:25But surely immediately, when you see the character designer
- 2:02:28stuff, whatever you will see the kind of fire force influence and
- 2:02:33stuff. Whatever.
- 2:02:33From from like the like The Craze looks some of the
- 2:02:37characters and stuff get when they you know, excited or action
- 2:02:42scenes or whatever. So Yeah, man.
- 2:02:44You that's on my list as well as this this lovely pile of manga
- 2:02:50behind me that that I have to read.
- 2:02:54But yeah, I think that's it for me for this week.
- 2:02:59What letter, one last last. Last thing I've also started
- 2:03:04watching it's a show called Shoot Kaji.
- 2:03:11The ultimate number eight, I think I generate no, no the
- 2:03:26Ultimate Gambler. Now, some of y'all did this is
- 2:03:29more of a niche series of all people hadn't heard of.
- 2:03:32But the name of it got brought up a lot last year when squid
- 2:03:36game brought out because people were like, people are like if
- 2:03:39you enjoy squid game this, Is a lot of people claim that hey,
- 2:03:43this is way better, that's quite a game.
- 2:03:46So I'm okay. It is warm because like us
- 2:03:49because the style of the manga definitely stands out or the
- 2:03:53anime when you see that the character designers for forever
- 2:03:55and it's one of my because I saw it on cruncher all the time.
- 2:03:58Like that looks different, looks interesting, whatever survive
- 2:04:03I'm slowly watching, whatever. But it's kind of a similar vibe
- 2:04:06to where characters in some huge debt and other plan these Friend
- 2:04:11right now. They're they're like in the
- 2:04:13casino playing like seemingly like a death game to survive,
- 2:04:19not a death game. Yeah.
- 2:04:20So of course, so good game but Imma stop there because I know
- 2:04:26your boy can keep on talking and rambling all day long.
