  Speaker 5: Sure? No, No, I didn't start out as a fan.

  Speaker 7: It looks silly to me in the in the adverts,
• 2:03
  Speaker 7: but then it re ran on the Sci Fi Channel
• 2:06
  Speaker 7: and that's when we gave it a shot, and that's
• 2:07
  Speaker 7: when we fell madly in love. I think they're doing
• 2:09
  Speaker 7: like a Firefly marathon and we were hooked right away.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Oh and I suppose with only one season, it's.
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: Just a moderate commitment.
• 2:20

  Speaker 1: Oh that's fantastic. Okay, I think you're gonna be You're

  Speaker 4: Firefly Okay for a long old time, just being in
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: general fandom spaces in the culture. Yeah, you know, And
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: so I'm hoping that that osmosis is gonna actually have
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: me pull any amount of weight.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Jed, I think you might have to help Audra
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: here with this one. But you know, maybe you'll pull
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: something from it. There'll be some serenity stuff.
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, I can do that. Yes, I'm sure, of course
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: you can. I have complete faith in you both. But
• 3:25

• 3:49
  Speaker 1: and a giant nerd in that he's tall and just
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: a bit of a nerd. He oscillates between neopanic and
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Zen like calm. He likes dinosaurs and his wife is
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: more competent than him. It's Chris, right, yay, and you.

  Speaker 8: Yeah, no, totally, uh for sure.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, everyone that we know, like, oh, welcome back, Aidan
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: and Chris. So good to have you both here. Aidan,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: We'll start with you. You are you a Firefly fan?
• 4:30
  Speaker 9: I am? I am a big Firefly fan. Similar to
• 4:33
  Speaker 9: what other people have said, like heard about it a
• 4:35
  Speaker 9: long time ago and kind of was just like it
• 4:38
  Speaker 9: ran for one season, how good can it be? And
• 4:41
  Speaker 9: then I think, in like twenty twelve, twenty thirteen, just
• 4:44
  Speaker 9: before I went off to university, I like gave it
• 4:47
  Speaker 9: a chance and fell madly in love with it and
• 4:50
  Speaker 9: have seen every episode at least three times. Nice I
• 4:55
  Speaker 9: said I would binge it for this episode. I didn't
• 4:58
  Speaker 9: have the time. So I've watched episode three this morning,
• 5:02
  Speaker 9: and that's where we're at because I've watched the first
• 5:07
  Speaker 9: two episodes so many times in trying to show it
• 5:09
  Speaker 9: to other people, I was like, I'm just going to
• 5:10
  Speaker 9: skip those. I know what happens in them. And then
• 5:14
  Speaker 9: I've watched episode three and was like, oh, I've got
• 5:16
  Speaker 9: to be on the podcast in like two hours. I
• 5:19
  Speaker 9: have time to watch more.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, who has time for binging TV shows? Binging TV shows?
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Remember the DVD box set days of just being able
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: to throw one of those bad boys on and waste
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: away the time.
• 5:34
  Speaker 6: Time.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Okay, so you've seen it a few times, aiden that's
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: that's gonna be some good knowledge, I think, Chris, what
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: about yourself? Are you a Firefly fan?
• 5:41
  Speaker 8: Yeah? I'm a fan, honestly. Yeah, exact same as everybody else.
• 5:46
  Speaker 8: Didn't watch it when it was airing. I watched the
• 5:49
  Speaker 8: show for the first time, I think also in twenty twelve.
• 5:53
  Speaker 8: It was my I was taking a semester off of
• 5:55
  Speaker 8: college and trying to figure out what to do with
• 5:57
  Speaker 8: my life and house sitting for for some family friends,
• 6:01
  Speaker 8: and I binged the entire thing and it was and it, yeah,
• 6:04
  Speaker 8: changed my life.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: And that's how a space cowboy now.
• 6:07
  Speaker 8: And that's how I became a space cowboy. I went
• 6:09
  Speaker 8: back to school to get my Space Cowboy degree, and
• 6:14
  Speaker 8: yeah it was. I still haven't watched it like a ton,
• 6:20
  Speaker 8: but I very lovingly watched the television when it is on,
• 6:25
  Speaker 8: So I think that counts for something.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, totally, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that's all you
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: need to be a fun is casually. So I died
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: the television and then.
• 6:35
  Speaker 8: And I was able to binge it because I worked
• 6:37
  Speaker 8: from home and I can just put it on the
• 6:39
  Speaker 8: TV in the background. And so I guess, I guess
• 6:45
  Speaker 8: shouts out to my work from Homers.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: No solo diarity that from the rest of the time.
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry, No, I should have been there with you,
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: adds on me.
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: If anyone should take that.
• 7:04
  Speaker 8: Heat, it's me.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Good stuff, Okay, teams hop aboard this hunk of junk
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: always has room for more stowaways. But you're gonna need
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: some nicknames aboard the ship. So some kind of catchy
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: branding that makes you guys stick out after nearly twenty
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: five years. So I'd like each pair to come up
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: with a firefly themed team name. Please, Ordra Jen, do
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: you have any ideas for a good quiz themed team name?
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: Now, I think came up with something brilliant. That's a
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: that's a.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Big that's a big.
• 7:40
  Speaker 8: I had.
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: I had three and in no zero order. I was
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: going to try to put them in some funnier order,
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: but I can't make that decision. First one Space Cowboys, Space.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Cowboys, Yeah, shows follow them.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: Justice for Miranda is my second one, and then the
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: Nathan filmy in. It's just a very handsome man. I
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: just had to throw it out there.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's the best offering, I think, Jen.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Do you have any ideas for a team name?
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: I can't top Nathan feeling, So we're.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: Going with the Nathan film me ins?
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, so blue so early will you we can
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: anyone who feels uncomfortable saying that kN just refer to
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: him by his name.
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: No, no, no, thank you properly, thank you.
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: This is the type of this is the type of
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: bolstering I need. You have to say it. That's the
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: team name.
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: Damn, your comforts are right?
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: Okay, perfect? So we have the Nathan film ins. Let's
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: find out who they're going to be facing, Aidan Chris.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Any ideas I just I'm realizing, Am I the team captain?
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Like you are the team captain? Okay?
• 8:53
  Speaker 9: This is the first I've learned of that, my captain,
• 8:58
  Speaker 9: I rely on you. I'm I'm no mal just just
• 9:06
  Speaker 9: just a peak of the referential humor that you're going
• 9:08
  Speaker 9: to get in the.
• 9:09
  Speaker 8: Rest of it's excellent stuff.
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: Snip.
• 9:14
  Speaker 9: So I probably should have had done it done as
• 9:18
  Speaker 9: as diligently a job as order, and had like a
• 9:20
  Speaker 9: list of stuff ready to go. The only one I
• 9:22
  Speaker 9: thought of actually compliments the other team's name really well.
• 9:27
  Speaker 9: It's also a play on an actor's name with an
• 9:29
  Speaker 9: innuendo in it. My suggestion is Alan's two Dicks.
• 9:36
  Speaker 8: I mean, that's immediately up there for me, both of them.
• 9:47
  Speaker 8: I do have a list of names. I don't know
• 9:48
  Speaker 8: if they're as good as that one. That is pretty solid.
• 9:51
  Speaker 8: I'll just I'll just rattle these off real quick. Anything
• 9:54
  Speaker 8: sticks out. So I have pre high school musical zac
• 9:58
  Speaker 8: Efron's Goose Jugglers, The Settled Space Colonies of Southern California
• 10:08
  Speaker 8: are a little wordy blue Hands group, the Forgotten Baldwins,
• 10:17
  Speaker 8: and the Space Dennis Reynolds Horrible Death, uh for for
• 10:24
  Speaker 8: for Dennis Reynolds the in Serenity. But I don't know.
• 10:28
  Speaker 8: I think Alan two Dicks is my favorite.
• 10:33
  Speaker 9: I should clarify, it's Allan's two dicks, so we are
• 10:36
  Speaker 9: the two dicks that belonged to Allen.
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, I thought that I was just learning something
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: about Allan, okay, but then I ended up learning something
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: different about Alan.
• 10:47
  Speaker 8: And the you know, we don't know, we don't know
• 10:50
  Speaker 8: for sure. Uh, only he can confirm that for us.
• 10:55
  Speaker 9: So and as we all know, he's a big listener
• 10:57
  Speaker 9: of gate Leapers, so I'm sure he'll.
• 10:59
  Speaker 8: Email yes, let one or two Alan hately bersa gmail
• 11:06
  Speaker 8: dot com.
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: Thanks, Chris, I'll read it out on the bonus round.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Excellent promo for our always open in box. So we
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: have the perfectly balanced and match team names here. I
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: love the references between the two of you, the Nathan
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: filmians versus Allen's two dix all right, And if you're
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: listening to this and thinking I missed Firefly the first
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: time around, and now that we know the subtexts of
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: Joss Whedon's writing, it's not exactly high on my list,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: don't worry. His audra with a little segment we like
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: to call passing knowledge.
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: Firefly is a two thousand and two American space western
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: TV series created by writer and director Joss Whedon. The
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: series is set after the arrival of humans in a
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: new star system in the year twenty five seventeen, which
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: is also allegedly the age range Joss Whedon set his
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: dating profiles too. The show and subsequent film in two
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: thousand and five, explores the adventures of the Renegade crew
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: of Serenity, a Firefly class spaceship who made a living
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: on the fringes of space society as part of the
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: star system's pioneer culture, except with less dysentery, which interestingly
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: is an anagram of Serenity. Ah, it isn't, but you've
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: thought about it for a second, there didn't.
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: My mind was blown.
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: Fox intentionally aired the show out of order in the
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: least desirable time slot, driving it to be canceled part
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: way through its first season. You know, just in case
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: you needed another reason to hate Fox. Fans loved the
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: show for many reasons, including the charm of the characters
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: and the world building, and the backdrop of the fallout
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: from an American coded civil war. I mean, not the
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: first Civil War or the second Civil War that's about
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: to happen, but like the fifth or sixth one. Now,
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: let's float like a leaf on the wind into pandemonium.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Yes, thank you, Ordra, I'm so glad, you said allegedly. Yeah,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: just before we get to today's games, I've asked each
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: player to bring in a muse, something that inspires them
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: or something they love from this particular fandom. Firefly is
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: inspiring to me because they only have to work for
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: one year to enjoy a quarter of a century of
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: cult popularity, whereas I'll be doing this for a quarter
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: of a century before having one kind of good year. Chris,
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: let's start with you. What's inspiring you from the world
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: of Lightning? But sorry, Firefly, there are a lot of
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: different things. I've been kind of weighing the different options.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: I'll just go with the kind of the not serious one,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: which is the game star Field. Okay, everybody hates it.
• 14:01
  Speaker 8: I get it, Bethesda sucks whatever, call me a shill.
• 14:06
  Speaker 8: The developers of that game loved Firefly, and I didn't
• 14:10
  Speaker 8: realize that until rewatching the show. And there's so much
• 14:15
  Speaker 8: front that they just straight up pulled from Fireflight and
• 14:18
  Speaker 8: put into this video. Oh wow, and it's great. There
• 14:21
  Speaker 8: is the city they just rebranded, the Alliance, and the
• 14:24
  Speaker 8: independence they have, the same like space suits and all
• 14:28
  Speaker 8: that shit. And there's very much space cowboy stuff in
• 14:33
  Speaker 8: that game. And it's great. And I'm not saying go
• 14:37
  Speaker 8: get it or or support Bethesda. What I fucking loved it, Okay,
• 14:45
  Speaker 8: and now I'm probably gonna play it again after watching
• 14:47
  Speaker 8: the show, So that's gonna be mine.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: Very good. Yeah, they probably just thought, look, how many
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: people remember this one season show from twenty Let's just
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: do it.
• 14:59
  Speaker 8: We're just gonna do it. Yeah, it's fine, nobody will
• 15:01
  Speaker 8: nobody will catch it. Only only the worst nerds would
• 15:05
  Speaker 8: catch it, So it's fine.
• 15:06
  Speaker 7: Yeah, the worst are the best nerds.
• 15:11
  Speaker 8: I more meant like just like when you're that level
• 15:13
  Speaker 8: of nerd and also playing that's more of what I
• 15:17
  Speaker 8: you yourself. Yeah, yeah, I'm the problem here.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: Fantastic. That's a that's a great mus The cycle of
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: culture continues. Let's move on over to your Alan's two
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: Dicks teammates A what's inspiring you from Firefly?
• 15:35
  Speaker 9: I had like two things. Both have been mentioned already
• 15:39
  Speaker 9: so far. The first one was Glenn Howardon's like brief
• 15:43
  Speaker 9: role at the start of the film Serenity, where as
• 15:46
  Speaker 9: Chris said he like he appears as like this really
• 15:50
  Speaker 9: obnoxious guy and then just gets butchered within like thirty
• 15:53
  Speaker 9: seconds of screen time, and it's fantastic, And like I
• 15:57
  Speaker 9: forget every time I watch it that he's in the
• 15:59
  Speaker 9: open like ten minutes of the film, and I'm just like,
• 16:02
  Speaker 9: oh yeah, oh yeah, every time it happens. But then also,
• 16:08
  Speaker 9: like I also wanted to shout out o our namesake,
• 16:12
  Speaker 9: Alan tu Dick. He is one of my favorite workers
• 16:15
  Speaker 9: in the Beast of Hollywood as an actor myself. He's
• 16:20
  Speaker 9: really inspiring in terms of like how like humble and
• 16:24
  Speaker 9: versatile he is. Like he's getting that Disney money. He
• 16:28
  Speaker 9: like every time Disney are doing a film, they're just like, oh,
• 16:30
  Speaker 9: we we have a chicken. Who should we get to
• 16:33
  Speaker 9: do the noises for that? Let's get Alan. Yeah, And
• 16:35
  Speaker 9: like he gets paid more money than any of us
• 16:38
  Speaker 9: will ever see to do that. And the fact that
• 16:41
  Speaker 9: he started out in like this like really struggling like
• 16:46
  Speaker 9: sci fi show in the in the early noughties, and
• 16:48
  Speaker 9: now he's like at the point that he's at where
• 16:50
  Speaker 9: he can make a TV show about how badly his
• 16:53
  Speaker 9: career went after that and that does successfully as well. Yeah,
• 16:58
  Speaker 9: it's just great. It's like a nice little sixth story
• 17:01
  Speaker 9: and like I also fancy him a little bit, and
• 17:04
  Speaker 9: that's fine, it's it's more than fine.
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: Honestly, there'd be something wrong. Yeah, there would be something
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: wrong if you didn't.
• 17:11
  Speaker 9: I'd like because like Alan to the guy, handsome man.
• 17:14
  Speaker 9: I think there's just something about like the impeccable wife
• 17:16
  Speaker 9: guy energy he brings as wash that is just it's
• 17:20
  Speaker 9: it's Stella Joey god Zoey you know.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Mm hmm, totally exactly. Yeah, that's both of those muses
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: are great. But your team's namesake. Yeah, Alan two Dicks
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: always seemed like a cool guy. And as as you say, now,
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: that did just like voicing like literally a character that
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: doesn't even need any kind of like. I mean, obviously
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: it takes a lot of skill to be able to
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: comedically play a chicken, but other actors would have passed
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: up on that and looked at it, looked down on
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: it as like I'm not wasting my time voicing a chicken.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Alan's straight there and getting all angles of this chicken's
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: emotion inside.
• 17:57
  Speaker 10: Huh levels, I didn't know it had exactly very inspirational stuff,
• 18:02
  Speaker 10: all right, we've heard from Alan's two Dicks now let's
• 18:06
  Speaker 10: hear from the Nathan film ins Jen.
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: What's inspiring you from the world of Firefly?
• 18:11
  Speaker 7: Oh man, the character work, yes, so good. If you
• 18:15
  Speaker 7: have not seen Firefly yet, don't start with a movie, you.
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: Guys, don't do it. Start with the pilot. It's so
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: brilliantly down.
• 18:25
  Speaker 7: The distinct voices of every single character is so so brilliant.
• 18:29
  Speaker 7: I can't emphasize that enough. And granted they had I
• 18:32
  Speaker 7: think more than an hour in the pilot, some one
• 18:35
  Speaker 7: could say they had a little bit easier in that regard,
• 18:38
  Speaker 7: but every character is very, very distinct, and there's generally speaking.
• 18:43
  Speaker 7: Kaylee is the exception, of course, but there's a lot
• 18:46
  Speaker 7: of grey areas in every single character, and yet you
• 18:48
  Speaker 7: still find them extremely charming and extremely likable, even though
• 18:52
  Speaker 7: you don't.
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: Know if they're good or bad or evil or whatever.
• 18:55
  Speaker 7: Shepherd book. But I think it's just brilliant writing. In
• 19:00
  Speaker 7: every single episode, no character ever loses their distinct voice.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, the characters really do. You have incredibly distinct voices,
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: which is crucial in an ensemble piece.
• 19:11
  Speaker 7: Oh yeah, huge cast, yahuge cast. Yeah, And they maintain
• 19:15
  Speaker 7: every single character.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: And luck I've I've only honestly seen serenity, but within
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: within fifteen minutes of serenity, I know who everyone is.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: That's great stuff. Yeah. Always good to be inspired by
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: great writing. Which, yeah, we can rag on Joss Whed
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: all we want, and we will. He does kind of
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: know what he's doing with a screenplay. Yep, Okay, thank you, Jen,
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: brilliant muse. Last, but not least, let's find out what
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: the non Firefly fan. Yes, how are you inspired by
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: Firefly Ultra?
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: I am inspired by the companions in Firefly was alluded
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: to in my introduction. It was like it was great
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: for me in college. Feet picks did's pay off a
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: good portion of my student loans.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: Just say, can I just clear up? Because now you
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: mentioned on the podcast that's not how we met.
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: That's not how we met. Clarification.
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: I said, that's not how we met really intensely, and
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: I the more intensely I say that, the less some
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: people are going.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: To believe it.
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: But I love the portrayal of like high echelon, like
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: this is like a high status role because let me
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: just say, trying to take feet pics in a dorm
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: room to hide it from your ra because it's a
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: Christian School. I did not feel like an ambassador.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: Excellent. Yeah, it's a it's a great bit of world building,
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: uh that they've got there. Then, yeah, I can't imagine
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: you felt felt very high status of respected by your
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: entire culture.
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: Not particularly, but I don't have student loans. Who's winning?
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Okay? Very inspired by all of your muses, especially that
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: last one. But are we already for some games? Who sweet? Okay, teams,
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: let's head down to the planet and retrieve some precious
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: cargo aka points in round one. Round one is called
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: IMDb trivia, which this time stands for intentional misconduct by
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: director Boss many more jokes. Okay, it says I have
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: here a board with six words on it, so I
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: should probably grab that board. Done a little little kind
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: of what do you call that solar system program?
• 21:50
  Speaker 5: There's the orbits, there's.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: The orbit lines there. So each of the words on
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: this board corresponds to a multiple choice trivia question about
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: firefly and or serenity, but not the comics, because we're
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: not nerds. We are nerds, but be warned. Sometimes the
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: words relate to the question directly, and sometimes the connection
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: is a little looser, or it could be a words
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: that's leading to you towards a more obvious bit of trivia,
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: but it's actually not really to do with that at all.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: So the words we have on the board are plans, engine, clothes, disc, love,
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: and sample.
• 22:29
  Speaker 9: I feel like a sleeper agent has just been activated.
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: Somewhere somewhere in the world.
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: Going crazy.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: We're going to start with the Nathan film in so
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: would you like to pick a word from this board?
• 22:47
  Speaker 5: Clothes?
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: Clothes. I'm down for that.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: You like the look of clothes. Okay, here's your question
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: about clothes. The Alliance officer and soldier uniforms were left
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: over costume from which nineties sci fi movie. Is it
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: A Starship Troopers, B Event Horizon or C Wild Wild
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: West starring Big Willie Style.
• 23:15
  Speaker 11: Maybe I have no I yeah, let's go right, it
• 23:20
  Speaker 11: feels right, It's just there's something, Yes, A feels right, Yeah,
• 23:24
  Speaker 11: going a Starship Troopers.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: It is indeed Starship Teapers. Yes, good stuff.
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: Good, just getting in there right answers Yeah.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: Easy, Yeah, this will be. You're gonna get all of.
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: Them right, Yeah, and I can definitely claim credit for it.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: Okay, fantastic. Now we're gonna move on over to Allen's
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: two dicks?
• 23:48
  Speaker 9: What do you? What are you feeling, Chris.
• 23:51
  Speaker 8: I'm I'm in I'm not gonna lie. I'm intrigued by plans.
• 23:55
  Speaker 8: What are you?
• 23:55
  Speaker 9: I'm also intrigued by plans? Yeah, I want to find
• 23:57
  Speaker 9: out what that question is if nothing else.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, you're intrigued by the plans. Let's see what
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: your question about plans is. After the original pre production
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: blueprints for the ship had been lost, who recreated them
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: for the film Serenity so the production team could recreate
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: the destroyed set? Was it a Nathan Fillion, b Alan
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: tudic or c. Freddy Prince Junior. Freddy's involved in everything.
• 24:26
  Speaker 9: Yeah, he gets his he gets his little his grubby
• 24:29
  Speaker 9: little hands.
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: He's a nerdy little pause.
• 24:34
  Speaker 9: And it like it feels like something that he would
• 24:36
  Speaker 9: be able to do, Like it's just believable that, like,
• 24:40
  Speaker 9: ah ah shit, we need we need someone to rebuild
• 24:43
  Speaker 9: an entire set from memory. Yeah, redesign an entire set
• 24:46
  Speaker 9: from memory. Freddy, You'll remember.
• 24:49
  Speaker 8: Somebody called Freddy because I feel like him and him
• 24:53
  Speaker 8: and our namesake are would be the most likely to me.
• 24:58
  Speaker 8: I don't know.
• 25:00
  Speaker 9: I don't think Nathan Fillion has done any hard work
• 25:03
  Speaker 9: at day in as well.
• 25:04
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I love you, Nathan. I don't think that I
• 25:07
  Speaker 8: don't think you got this one.
• 25:11
  Speaker 9: I mean just for the sort of like out of
• 25:13
  Speaker 9: left fieldness of it, and like I hope I can
• 25:16
  Speaker 9: manifest it into being the right answer. I want to say,
• 25:18
  Speaker 9: Freddy Prince Junior, I'm down, let's lock it in.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: I love it. You're going with Freddy Prince Jr. I
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: wish it was. The man has so many talents, not
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: just anyone could do Scooby Doo two Monsters late. It
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: was actually Nathan Fillion who recreated the blueprints.
• 25:36
  Speaker 8: Oh shit, Oh sorry, Nathan. We didn't believe in you
• 25:43
  Speaker 8: even a little bit.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: I guess, so no point there, but I respect the
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: bold guess of Freddie Prince Jor. Okay, four words left
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: on the boards. I could be I could be rubbing
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: I was gonna say, I could be rubbing them off.
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: That's not the phrase.
• 26:01
  Speaker 5: That's the way man.
• 26:03
  Speaker 8: Either. Either phrase works for me.
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: I don't know what I have, not the one who
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: should be picking. But engine or disc you feel free
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: to overrule me. Okay, disc disc?
• 26:20
  Speaker 12: Yeah, going with discs means scared anything.
• 26:25
  Speaker 5: It's real.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: But here's what it means. It means this question. In
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: what unusual place could you once find the DVDs for
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: Serenity and Firefly? Is it a a time capsule on
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: the Skywalker ranch that was dug up in twenty twenty
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: two b the White House screening room during the Obama administration,
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: or see the International Space Station?
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: Ah ooh, I know this one. I know this one.
• 26:54
  Speaker 8: Ry.
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: I think they've been to space. I think they've been
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: to space.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: You think they've been to space?
• 26:59
  Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, I.
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: Just it's one of the things because I don't know
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: when you're a big fucking nerd in the ways that
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: I am. I've seen a lot of people floating in space,
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: just like photos of just like oh yeah, this is
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: these people and they did this, and I think one
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: of them was holding Firefly, and I was like, I
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: know that that's a thing.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, I'm.
• 27:25
  Speaker 5: Such a cool move. I'm going to go to space
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: and bring my firefly.
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: If this is right, If this is right, I'm going
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: to be so yah.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: Just to let you know, Jen, this is We've been
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: doing this podcast for four years. This is the most
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: confident I've ever seen order about anything. It's wrong.
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: I quit.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: So happy to go with CEA International Space Station. It
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: is indeed, yes, good stuff. That's the point.
• 27:50
  Speaker 5: Well done, teammates.
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: I really wanted it to be in the White House, though,
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: and I was hearing that.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: I thought it was believable that Obama could be a
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: final He loved a lot of TV.
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah. If I wouldn't have seen photos and have it
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: burned into my memory in some place, you could have
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: tricked me. I'm so sorry to take that away from you.
• 28:08
  Speaker 5: No, I was going to go with Obama. But I'm glad.
• 28:10
  Speaker 5: I'm glad you.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: Knew we'd all always go with Obama if we could.
• 28:15
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Back off to Allan's two dicks. Three words left on
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: the board. We've got engine, love and sample.
• 28:24
  Speaker 9: What do you think in aiden, I'm thinking that we
• 28:27
  Speaker 9: can earn some points back with the power of love.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: Hell yeah, here is your question related to love. In
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: twenty twelve, The New York Times reported on a couple
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: who were such big fans of Firefly that they had
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: a firefly themed wedding. But what other major life choice
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: did they make together? That week? They honeymooned in the
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: More Harvey Desert, visiting filming locations B. They both changed
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: their surname to Reynolds or see they adopted two dogs
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: named Shepherd and wash.
• 29:00
  Speaker 8: First of all, I feel attacked for using your honeymoon
• 29:03
  Speaker 8: to go to filming locations of your favorite franchise. So
• 29:09
  Speaker 8: just I just want to say, that's bullshit.
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: Man, I think we both did that right. I'm also
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: the problem.
• 29:20
  Speaker 8: Oh thank god.
• 29:23
  Speaker 9: The dog one feels like the lower stakes, like the
• 29:28
  Speaker 9: dog in the Honeymoon, So it doesn't feel like a
• 29:31
  Speaker 9: major life thing. Yeah, to do that, because like, who
• 29:35
  Speaker 9: doesn't love dogs? And like why would you not name
• 29:37
  Speaker 9: them after your favorite characters? And then like honeymooning in
• 29:43
  Speaker 9: the Mohave that that makes sense. But like as a
• 29:46
  Speaker 9: as a like big life decision getting married and like
• 29:50
  Speaker 9: changing your name to a different thing, I feel like
• 29:53
  Speaker 9: that's huge.
• 29:54
  Speaker 8: That's that's pretty wild. It's actually newsworthy rather than I
• 29:59
  Speaker 8: have done. Yeah, named after characters? Yeah, yeah, again something
• 30:04
  Speaker 8: I did. I did all of these except for change
• 30:06
  Speaker 8: my name.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: Chris Beckens, which one are you going with?
• 30:16
  Speaker 8: Said?
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: All?
• 30:16
  Speaker 8: But the name? What do you think? I? Yeah, I'm
• 30:24
  Speaker 8: I'm with you. You think be's the most.
• 30:25
  Speaker 9: I think I think the name the name change.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: B They both changed their surname to Reynolds. Yeah, absolutely
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: they did. That was the other thing featured in this article.
• 30:36
  Speaker 8: Wild Yeah, and.
• 30:39
  Speaker 9: It wasn't like neither of their name was Reynolds before this.
• 30:42
  Speaker 8: No.
• 30:43
  Speaker 9: I guess that's like a nice compromise.
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: I think it's a good compromise.
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: I genuinely like this as someone who didn't change their
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: name when they got married. Like the concept of, oh,
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: I have to take someone else's name. Nah, everybody should
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: be switching it to some other last name.
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, go for it.
• 31:01
  Speaker 8: Just a cool ass last name and go for it.
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: Yea.
• 31:04
  Speaker 8: Yeah, respect honestly.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: Yep, definitely, that's good stuff. You got to point there.
• 31:10
  Speaker 8: We're on the board. We're on the board. Also, I'm
• 31:13
  Speaker 8: so sorry, add we probably will lose. We are on
• 31:16
  Speaker 8: a team together, and uh I lose.
• 31:19
  Speaker 9: So I'm sorry.
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: That's the spirit.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: Back on over to Nathan Filmian's You've got engine, You've
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: got sample?
• 31:30
  Speaker 5: Well seem really difficult?
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, are you?
• 31:33
  Speaker 5: Are you?
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: Is there any instinct in your heart that is guiding
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: you in any direction?
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: The instinct of fear is keeping away from engine.
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: Okay, let's go for sample sample Okay.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: The Serenacy soundtrack samples music from which nineties video game?
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: Is it a StarCraft B Quake or C sid Maya's
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: Civilization Too.
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: I feel like I should know this because I do
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: listen to I work to video game soundtracks, so I
• 32:05
  Speaker 4: feel like I should know this, but I have zero concept.
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: This is the soundtrack from Serenity. Remind you of of
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: anything from from when you watch the film? Has it
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: got your quaking?
• 32:20
  Speaker 4: Got it got me?
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: Sid Dim, he's the only one.
• 32:24
  Speaker 8: That looks.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: Let's go C C Sation T. Yeah. The other two
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: featuring quite heavy sci fi elements, but you're going, but
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: you're forgetting.
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: That this is like an expansive world. I think you're yeah,
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: you know, we're getting clay.
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: I am because it is.
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: Oh, there's a point it all along, deep down we
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: had this knowledge within us.
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: Okay, two dicks, you know what you've got. It's engine.
• 33:03
  Speaker 8: Let's do it.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: What is the engine room's center console made from? As
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: a prop? Not like sci fi?
• 33:11
  Speaker 9: I was gonna say, like, oh, like tungsten.
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: Space metal?
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: Is it a the engine of a Ferrari F series B,
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: the engine of a Boeing seven three seven, or see
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: the engine of a Naboo Royal cruiser repurposed from nineteen
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: ninety nine's The Phantom Menace.
• 33:34
  Speaker 8: You can't just like bring like a full Mandalorian episode
• 33:38
  Speaker 8: in here, trying to trick me, man, whatever.
• 33:45
  Speaker 9: Yeah, that's my other dick. I mean, I was. I
• 33:51
  Speaker 9: was gonna say that the recycling of a Star Wars
• 33:54
  Speaker 9: props sounds like something that like would fit in with
• 33:57
  Speaker 9: the recycling of of like costumes and stuff from other productions.
• 34:01
  Speaker 8: But oh, yeah, that's true.
• 34:03
  Speaker 9: When you say, like the main console, do you mean
• 34:06
  Speaker 9: like the big thing in the middle of the room,
• 34:08
  Speaker 9: of the engine room.
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: I believe from memory of the picture.
• 34:12
  Speaker 9: Yes, okay, because I would say, like the airplane all
• 34:18
  Speaker 9: the the Naboo thing makes sense because it's it's pretty big. Yeah,
• 34:26
  Speaker 9: And I feel like it would be cheaper for this
• 34:29
  Speaker 9: production to just repurpose a prop that was already made
• 34:32
  Speaker 9: and being stored in a warehouse rather than purchase like
• 34:37
  Speaker 9: a disused Boeing engine, although the going rates for those
• 34:42
  Speaker 9: these days are probably.
• 34:45
  Speaker 4: Sure that would be a big flip.
• 34:47
  Speaker 8: Now, No, I agree, I do. I feel like the
• 34:51
  Speaker 8: Boeing one is a trick because it makes sense, and
• 34:56
  Speaker 8: I think Matt and I don't trust man.
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's fair.
• 35:03
  Speaker 9: I love that the longer this show goes on, the
• 35:05
  Speaker 9: like the more people try and met a game, because
• 35:07
  Speaker 9: it's like, we know, Matt, how is he going to
• 35:10
  Speaker 9: try and trickers with this one?
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: My trick, My plan is I just don't change anything
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: about me at all. People think I'm playing games.
• 35:20
  Speaker 9: Just you get them to mind game themselves.
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: What if it's a quadruple bluff.
• 35:28
  Speaker 8: But if you no, no, no, go for it. I was
• 35:30
  Speaker 8: going to keep going with the bit and I kind
• 35:33
  Speaker 8: of forgot where I was going. So you yeah, you
• 35:35
  Speaker 8: take it.
• 35:36
  Speaker 9: Yeah, let's let's get down to serious business. I mean
• 35:42
  Speaker 9: I would, I would say see for the for the
• 35:44
  Speaker 9: repurposed Phantom Menace prop.
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: Hell, yeah, I agree going with see the engine of
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: an Aboo Royal Cruiser repurpose from nineteen ninety nine. It's
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: the Phantom Menace.
• 35:54
  Speaker 8: It's not.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. I was playing mind games and trying
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: to trick it is actually the engine of a Boeing
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: seven three seven son shit, Matt, I mean it explains
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: why the ship was like a hunker junk. He's a
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: Boeing engine.
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: Joss Whedon was actually trying to whistle blow.
• 36:21
  Speaker 8: Wow. These engines keeps keep going out on us. Huh,
• 36:25
  Speaker 8: that's crazy.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, first time Joss Whedon's been on that side of
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: a whistleblow. I don't have to say a legends for
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: that one. Okay, that is the end of round one.
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: Let's ask the intelligent doctor Simon Towm to calculate the
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: latest scores. He says he'll do it if I stop
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: describing him fair enough. The Nathan Filmians have three points.
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: Alan's two dicks have one point.
• 36:58
  Speaker 8: He's close.
• 37:01
  Speaker 9: Everyone loves an underdog story.
• 37:03
  Speaker 8: Oh yeah, exactly, we'll get it back.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Up next is round two, after these commercials for
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: fruity oat bars. As a vegetarian, fruity ot bars are
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: thirty eight percent of my diet. Back after this, Round
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: two is called flash Fick. It's the game where I
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: ask our teams to compose original pieces of flash fiction.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: That's flash, not slash unless in turns. I will give
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: our teams a prompt to get a fix started, a
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: first line that should hopefully spark some inspiration of a
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: direction to take the story, and then, one word at
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: a time, back and forth between teammates, players will create
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: some original Firefly fan fiction points for your story out
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: of five, but you can score bonus point by including
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: the word you spin on the word wheel.
• 38:09
  Speaker 9: That was actually the original wheel of fortune.
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: It's what it's illegitimate. Children. The words generated by a
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: random word generator that I have for you today are sugar, buffet, choke, photocopy, dealer, equinox, proposal,
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: and crabs. So we are going to begin with the
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: Nathan film me ins before I give you your prompt to
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: get you started on your fan fiction. Would one if
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: you like to spin the wheel, see which word you get?
• 38:44
  Speaker 5: Yeah, really big many, big money.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: Big money. I wonder what big money is in?
• 38:50
  Speaker 8: Is it crabs?
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: Is that big money? Foremost, what have we got there?
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: I would say that's proposal. I think proposal is what
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: we've got there. So if you can include the word proposal,
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: I will give you your point and your prompt is
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: this Shepherd book finally spoke and offered to share the
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: parable of the oil Lamp and the fish Wife Take
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: it away.
• 39:11
  Speaker 6: There was a dark night where the crew needed sleep period.
• 39:23
  Speaker 6: The reavers were approaching period yep, but hope still lingered
• 39:35
  Speaker 6: in the hearts of all who.
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: Rested deep within the ship.
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: I'm going to stop you there, Okay, one more sentence
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: take away.
• 40:02
  Speaker 12: Mal suggested a proposal that they compromise and reach a agreement.
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: There were riding on a very agreeable way. Here is
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: your piece of original Firefly fan fiction. There was a
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: dark night where the crew needed sleep. The Reavers were approaching,
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: but hope still lingered in the hearts of all who
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: rested deep within the ship. Mal suggested a proposal that
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: they compromise and reach an agreement. I loved the lack
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: of drama, and it's just like, no, we're going to
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: compromise and reach an agreements.
• 40:49
  Speaker 4: Listen, there was hope thematically, it was so there.
• 40:55
  Speaker 5: It was so good, you guys.
• 40:56
  Speaker 8: Yeah, nobody, nobody had tried an agreement with the Reavers before, and.
• 41:01
  Speaker 7: They're just misunderstood, you guys.
• 41:05
  Speaker 4: If anyone had proposed an agreement.
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: See, yes, okay, you did get your word in there.
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: Very good. So you get a point for that. For sure.
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: I'm going to give you four out of five for that,
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: because you did have themes in it. There were the themes.
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: Themes were present, and that's what makes a good story.
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: So there you go, very good. We're going to now
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: move over to Alan's two dix to hear hear their
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: piece of flash fan fiction. Here is your prompt again.
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: It can either be what inspires you to take it
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: in that direction, or it could just be I'm going
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: to take one little idea from this and go off
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: in a completely different direction. Maus surveyed the bar and
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: danced his fingers across the grip of his pistol. Suddenly
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: spin the wheel. Oh shoot, so much kidding? Are you
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: happy for me to spin the wheel on your behalf?
• 41:58
  Speaker 9: If you give me a bit, I can be over
• 42:00
  Speaker 9: there to do it.
• 42:01
  Speaker 4: But I'll give you eighteen hours.
• 42:07
  Speaker 8: We can vam for eighteen hours.
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: Okay, I'm going to say that your word is choke.
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: Choke is the word that you have there.
• 42:16
  Speaker 9: If you type in firefly and choke in AO three, you'll.
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: Get, Oh boy, what you will find.
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: So your setup is Mau surveyed the bar and danced
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: his fingers across the grip of his pistol. Suddenly, twenty
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: burly barman stood menacingly in front of him. Period, key
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: looked horny.
• 43:01
  Speaker 8: Period, and then in yeah. In quotations, starting starting quotations,
• 43:12
  Speaker 8: you looking to get choked.
• 43:21
  Speaker 9: Close quotation or question mark close quotations, open quotation.
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: Yep, yes, exclamation point quotation. All right, I think you've
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: actually told a story that. Would you like another sentence
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: or no? I think we should you know, quit, well
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: we're ahead.
• 43:51
  Speaker 8: Yeah yeah, yeah, you got to leave some to the imagination,
• 43:54
  Speaker 8: you know.
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: All right, here is your original piece of flash fiction.
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: Surveyed the bar and danced his fingers across the grip
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: of his pistol. Suddenly twenty burly barman stood menacingly in
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: front of him. He looked horny. You're looking to get choked. Yes, oh,
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: to be fair, there was an exclamation point, so yeah.
• 44:21
  Speaker 8: Oh brilliant.
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: Well look you got choked in there, so definitely a
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: point for that.
• 44:30
  Speaker 8: I definitely read that fan thing before. We just word
• 44:32
  Speaker 8: for word pulled from Yeah.
• 44:33
  Speaker 9: No, it would weigh on our conscience if we didn't
• 44:37
  Speaker 9: say that.
• 44:38
  Speaker 4: I know it's the other team, but that's a five
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: out of five fan fiction.
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: Sometimes the best stories are the most succinct ones that
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: have the arc, and sometimes an arc is looking horny,
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: asking for consent and getting explicit radical consents. So yeah, five,
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: uh huh, oh, brilliant. Five points to Alan's two dicks.
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: Lovely stuff all right. Would each team like to write
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: one more fan fic each?
• 45:11
  Speaker 8: Hell?
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, once again the Nathan Filmians. Would you like
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: to spin the wheel.
• 45:17
  Speaker 5: To turn darling?
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: Thank you, it's Equinox.
• 45:21
  Speaker 7: Okay, very difficult words.
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: Tough word.
• 45:26
  Speaker 4: No, we've got this. We've got this.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: Your word is Equinox, and here is your setup. Yeah,
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: get loose. Zoe and Wash were finally alone on the bridge.
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: The couple stared into each other's eyes and read their bows.
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: Period. The toy dinosaurs.
• 46:00
  Speaker 5: From the brand Equinox.
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 46:09
  Speaker 5: Period.
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: They always felt like children when they played together with their.
• 46:27
  Speaker 4: Dinosaurs.
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: Okay, I'm going to stop it there, because that turned
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: out to be very quite innocent. Actually, unless you know
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: the dinosaurs are euphemism for something.
• 46:37
  Speaker 7: Natal Gymnastics had a dude Equinox into story.
• 46:41
  Speaker 5: Still took a lazy way out.
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: Hey, I believe you that there is a brand of
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: toy dinosaurs.
• 46:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah, there is. Now it's my world.
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: Definitely a point for Equinox. There here is your full
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: flash fiction. Zoe and Wash were finely alone on the bridge.
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: The couple stared into each other's eyes and read their vows.
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: The toy dinosaurs from the brand Equinox. They always felt
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: like children when they played together with their dinosaurs.
• 47:16
  Speaker 4: I stand by it.
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: Very good. We've already addressed the shoehorning of Equinox. You've
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: got your point and you'll take it. Yes, I'm look.
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: It was very very sweet. I appreciate that you didn't
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: take the easy option of writing some smut between the
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: married couple on the bridge.
• 47:38
  Speaker 7: I can't top twenty burly barmit. I couldn't even compromise.
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: No know your role, but it was very sweet of
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: the couple stared into each other's eyes and read their vows.
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: That is very sweet. I'm gonna give you another four
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: out of five for that one.
• 47:55
  Speaker 5: Thank you.
• 47:55
  Speaker 8: I just wanted to say real quick that Mel couldn't
• 47:58
  Speaker 8: top twenty barmany either.
• 48:02
  Speaker 5: He tried.
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: Back on over to Alan's two Dicks for our final
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: piece of flash fan fiction. Maybe mercifully so, I'm gonna
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: spin the wheel to find out what your word is
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: that you must include if we land the same thing again.
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: It's it's crabs. It's crabs. Congrats, we have crabs, And
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: here is your prompt. The tam siblings stared into each
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: other's eyes for an uncomfortably long amount of time. River
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: broke the silence.
• 48:42
  Speaker 9: Open quotation marked, crabs close?
• 48:48
  Speaker 8: Yes? Did you just say crabs? Question mark?
• 48:55
  Speaker 9: We can put a question mark in there if you want.
• 48:57
  Speaker 8: Okay, yeah, I'll do okay, question mark close quotations, open quotations.
• 49:06
  Speaker 9: It might be crabs.
• 49:13
  Speaker 8: Period? Where did that come from? Question mark?
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: Space?
• 49:31
  Speaker 9: That's that was also a separate quotation. Yeah, we're right
• 49:35
  Speaker 9: in a dialogue.
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: Yeh yeah, it's all dialogue.
• 49:38
  Speaker 8: Crabs.
• 49:40
  Speaker 9: Wait?
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: Are you saying space crabs or clas? Okay, I'm saying space.
• 49:43
  Speaker 9: Okay, Okay, I've lost track of whose line is is whose?
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: I think space? My mind's river River saying that.
• 49:51
  Speaker 9: River river opening with crabs?
• 49:53
  Speaker 8: Yes, yeah? Or opening space crabs?
• 49:58
  Speaker 12: Uh?
• 50:00
  Speaker 9: Closed quotation marks yep, open quotation marks yep.
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: What all right, We're gonna end it there. This is
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: not far removed from the kinds of dialogue that the
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: Tam siblings happened. Here is your original piece of fan fiction.
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: The Tam siblings stared into each other's eyes for an
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: uncomfortably long amount of time. River broke the silence? Crabs,
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: It might be crabs? Where did that come from? Space? Crabs?
• 50:38
  Speaker 8: What?
• 50:42
  Speaker 9: As soon as you said that like River was the
• 50:44
  Speaker 9: one to break the silence, and then I was like
• 50:46
  Speaker 9: she would just say crabs, yeah, on its own in
• 50:49
  Speaker 9: a vacum.
• 50:50
  Speaker 4: There's a part of me that wanted I was just
• 50:52
  Speaker 4: like crabs. End of fan fiction.
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: Oh well, you've look the brilliance of the crabs. You've
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: said crabs three times in that. I'm not going to
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: give you three points for it, just the one, but
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: it's definitely in there, and I think like it was
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: shortened to the point like your last one, but not
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: as much story conveyed there. So I'm going to also
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: give you four out of five for this very normal
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: tam sibling in.
• 51:22
  Speaker 8: I'm just curious about where space crabs come from. I
• 51:26
  Speaker 8: guess I just I would never never live. I'd never
• 51:32
  Speaker 8: make it.
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: You wouldn't, not with not even with all that starfield
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: under your belt. Okay, that is the end of the round.
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: Thank you writers. Let's ask the loyal wash to calculate
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: the latest scores. And I now know that nominative determinism
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: is the reason everyone loves Alan two dick. And that's
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: a joke that I wrote a few days ago. That
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: was already the joke done up top to form the
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: teammate fantastic. Let's get to those scores. Those scores are
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: the Nathan filmions are on thirteen points. Alan's two Dix
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: are on twelve points. Catching up.
• 52:11
  Speaker 5: Huh.
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: Round three next after these ads that will hopefully not
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: misrepresent their products in the way that Fox misrepresented Firefly
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: in the two thousand and two TV season Back soon.
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: Round three is called rough and Tumblr. It's the game
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: where I'll ask you to identify characters from Firefly, but
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: not from clues written by me. Instead, these are genuine
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: two am text posts from your fellow fans on tumblr
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: dot com. So sorry if there're any of yours time.
• 52:51
  Speaker 9: Every time this round happens in a game, I'm like,
• 52:54
  Speaker 9: oh god, what if one of them is mine?
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: The game is simple. I'll read a genuine text post
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: and our players will, then I've got here write down
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: who they think it is, but I trust all of
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: you to just hold in your head an honest answer
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: of who you think it is. We'll then discuss who
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: you chose and why, and only one member of your
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: team needs to get the right answer to get the points,
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: So it's effectively giving you two guesses per team. If
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: you want to front like a different different characters. They'll
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: start out pretty easy, and then they'll get tougher and
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: tougher as we as we go along through these genuine
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: Tumbler quotes.
• 53:31
  Speaker 4: But more times you say genuine, the more weird I
• 53:34
  Speaker 4: expect them to be.
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: We'll get there.
• 53:38
  Speaker 8: Actually.
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: To be honest, these weren't as weird as they have
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: been for previous fandoms that we've covered. I think partly
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: because the fandom dates back, like to a little bit
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: before Tumbler. Even so you've kind of got more refined,
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: sensible takes as opposed to like Sherlock or Oh.
• 53:56
  Speaker 9: Yeah, there's a there's a definite curve of like removal
• 53:59
  Speaker 9: from like the source material of like insanity, and it
• 54:03
  Speaker 9: gets to a certain point where that insanity starts to
• 54:05
  Speaker 9: go back down.
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely the fandom curve. I think scientists call it.
• 54:11
  Speaker 5: I do. Yeah.
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: Okay, so the first genuine tumblrtext post for everyone is this, Ah, yes,
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: welcome to the dorky Golden Retriever husbands that end up
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: getting impaled club. Okay, so everyone have a think about
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: who that is referring to, and I'm going to come
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: to you one by one for who you think it is,
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: so we'll start with aiden. Who do you think this is?
• 54:32
  Speaker 9: I mean, it's Wash. I'm interested in the other husband's
• 54:38
  Speaker 9: who've been impaled. Who else they're talking.
• 54:41
  Speaker 4: About, that's the real question.
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: Yes, Wash agreed, Jen was gotta.
• 54:50
  Speaker 5: Go with Wash.
• 54:52
  Speaker 4: I am going to go with Wash, and I thought
• 54:54
  Speaker 4: that before everybody else who knew more about this said it.
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it is indeed, Wash. I love this as a
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: description of the character. It's quite nice. Do you agree
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: with the Golden Retriever comparison there of all the dogs
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: or would you say he's a different kind of dog.
• 55:12
  Speaker 9: I don't know enough about dog breeds to definitively say anything.
• 55:18
  Speaker 9: I'd say he's a setter, could be or a cordy. Yeah,
• 55:26
  Speaker 9: I can see him as a cologie breeds that are
• 55:29
  Speaker 9: known for their like prowess in in like aerospace.
• 55:35
  Speaker 4: Probably just like her.
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what was like her?
• 55:40
  Speaker 4: Probably a husky husky? I was thinking husky or sheba,
• 55:45
  Speaker 4: one of those types of the on the actual space
• 55:48
  Speaker 4: early tail. Yeah, yeah, ones, probably a husky. I could
• 55:54
  Speaker 4: see that for Wash. Okay, I think you're going to
• 55:57
  Speaker 4: be very good at this round. Guys, here's your next
• 56:01
  Speaker 4: genuine tumbler quote. I know it's twenty twenty, and why
• 56:04
  Speaker 4: am I talking about this show? But Firefly got a
• 56:07
  Speaker 4: lot of things right. But my favorite thing is they
• 56:10
  Speaker 4: were like on this entire spaceship and they were the
• 56:12
  Speaker 4: most respectable and wealthy person as a sex worker. And
• 56:16
  Speaker 4: yes that includes the priest.
• 56:19
  Speaker 5: I was about to say shepherd, but no, Okay.
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: I will start with jen on this one. Who've you
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: got yeah Na Na Audre.

  Speaker 8: Yeah, Anara and Aidennara.
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah it is indeed. Yeah, we've had this conversation already

• 56:51
  Speaker 1: you know your specific references with this next one. Okay,
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: they must have really, really really had a bad time
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: at the theater once to put people who talk at
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: the theater in the same special hell as child molesters.
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: Who is this text post about and not Joss Whedon?
• 57:10
  Speaker 8: So so this one is confusing to me because there's
• 57:13
  Speaker 8: it's one character saying it to another character, Like one
• 57:17
  Speaker 8: one character said you would be like this to another character,
• 57:20
  Speaker 8: So like, is it who's saying it, or who he's
• 57:23
  Speaker 8: saying you will be like that person.
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: It is the person saying it. They they must have had,
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: must have sorry, the grammar's bad on the original post,
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: and I didn't say anything about it. Yeah, they the
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: person who is making this comparison. I would say, Okay,
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: that's Shepherd, Okay, Chris Saint Shepherd Aiden, Yeah, it's Shepherd,
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: book Aldre.
• 57:49
  Speaker 4: I have to honor that. I don't have Jane Something. Yeah,
• 57:55
  Speaker 4: Jane Something. I picked a name and I'm not gonna
• 57:59
  Speaker 4: cheat other people's answers.
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: And Jen, I say Shepherd, You say Shepherd. Yeah, well
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: I respect the honesty or dru thank you. It is
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: indeed Shepherd, and your team gets a point because Jen
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: got it right. It is Shepherd, thank you.
• 58:13
  Speaker 4: Jen.
• 58:14
  Speaker 5: Jay does not seem like a theater goer, or he
• 58:17
  Speaker 5: would be the one talking in the theater.
• 58:19
  Speaker 8: Yeah yeah, true, yeah, or he's secretly like a big
• 58:23
  Speaker 8: theater kid. That would be a great.
• 58:26
  Speaker 9: I feel like it would be in character for him
• 58:28
  Speaker 9: to actually be like BRILLIANTO musicals. Yeah, and he keeps
• 58:32
  Speaker 9: it hidden from everyone.
• 58:33
  Speaker 4: Everything else is just like a facade.
• 58:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah. I would pay to see that episode.
• 58:38
  Speaker 11: Yeah, make it doing Joss.
• 58:46
  Speaker 5: We were wrapped of a musical episode.

• 59:11
  Speaker 4: I have only seen Serenity. I am going to say River.
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: You're saying River, Jen side quest, sidequest, side quests. You
• 59:22

• 59:25
  Speaker 1: cover some.
• 59:25
  Speaker 4: Cover more ground.
• 59:28
  Speaker 5: Okay, I'm gonna say it's Wash saying Wash.

  Speaker 1: Jane saying Jane.
• 59:40
  Speaker 8: Chris, I'm right there with Aiden, So I'm going to

• 59:51
  Speaker 1: Audras the as the non fan got this one interpreted
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: the firefly fans.
• 59:55
  Speaker 4: Sometimes your challenge of being a obsessive on Tumblr trump
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 4: specific knowledge. The full phrase jack of all trades, master
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 4: of none goes on to say is oftentimes better than
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 4: a master of one, and for one question.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 8: Help me out.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: Very good. Okay, here is another Tumblr text post. This
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: one's a lengthy one. Bear with me, yes me. A
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: lot of the time they are not a helpless pushover
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: and can actually be quite ruthless and calculated and good
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: for them. Me right now, get behind me. I appreciate
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: that you are branching out, but you are being too
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: trusting in this particular instance. And I will kill anyone
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: who hurts you. Okay, there's some happy answers here from
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: some of the Firefly fans. Let's go with Aiden on
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: this one first.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 9: I'd like that last line immediately made me think Kaylee.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 9: It's It's like the thought that everyone has about Kayley
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 9: is like I would kill to defend you.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: Okay's going with Kaylee. Chris.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 8: I'm gonna go I'm gonna get crazy with it. I'm
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 8: gonna say Simon.
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: You gonna say, Simon, I love it, Jen.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 5: Well ship, I thought Kaylee, but now I think Simon.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: Chris.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 5: I gonna go with my gut and say Kaylee.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: Jen's going with Kaylee.
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 4: I will honor the answer I had in my head
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 4: and say Kaylee as well.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: You're honoring and saying Kaylee, you can like after hearing.
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 4: That you can't Simon, I'm going for Simon. Okay.
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: There was some confident responses that this was maybe Kaylee,
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: but this is in fact Simon. This is Simon.
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 9: I'm really glad that Chris said that, because as soon
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 9: as he said that, I was like, oh, ship, yeah
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 9: might right.
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 8: That was straight up I guess I had no I
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 8: had no logic for picking Simon. I was just like,
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 8: I feel like this is supposed to be Kaylee, and
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 8: I need to pick the person I'm not thinking of.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 7: Right now that gameplay.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this person will kill anyone who hurts Simon. Which character?
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 8: That's wild. That's a wild thing to say.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 9: I think maybe Kaylee wrote the text post.
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: All right, I got one final text post for our
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: players here. It is, do I let people think the
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: name of my dog came from Firefly? Or I admit
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: it's from that two thousand and three meme song? Which
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: one is more embarrassing.
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 9: I didn't know there was a character in Firefly called
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 9: Freezy Frog.
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: This was kind of a kind of a tough one
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: here character. Yeah, this is the character that this person
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 1: named their dog. After we're getting removed from any kind
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: of logic that you could possibly even know this. This
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: is one specific Tumbler user from probably twenty seventeen.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 4: Oh, I've picked something and that's that.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: Okay, you don't order it. You're so confident. Today, we're
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: gonna start with you. I am Miranda, Miranda. I don't
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: know if there's a meme song in two thousand and three,
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: but I bet there is. Jen House. You two thousand
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: and three meme song.
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 5: Knowledge kind of sucked.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna say, uh, just for the power of splitting
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 7: up mal mal.
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: Nice, nice, Chris, what have you got for this?
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 8: I feel like of the names that could be associated
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 8: with a meme from the early two thousands meme song,
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 8: all they can think of is Zoe. I can't think
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 8: of a song with it, but it sounds like a
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 8: meme like it would be associated with the meme song
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 8: from Charlie two thousand. So I'm going Zoe.
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: You're saying Zoe, Yeah, I respect it, Aidan, what's your offering?
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 9: I had that same train of thought. So just to
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 9: hedge your bets, I'm gonna say a different name, and
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 9: I'm just gonna like pull one out of my little
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 9: firefly hat that I keep inside my brain of all times,
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 9: and say Jane.
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: And throw out Jane. I've not heard the correct answer
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: from any of our players. The correct answer is Badger.
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 9: Oh, we meme song Badger and it's it's the it's
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 9: the British guy who was in Supernatural yea as has
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 9: the bowlers hat.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 8: What I want to know is who would name their
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 8: dog after that character?
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: He sucks?
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 9: And also it's just an animal like that's like if
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 9: someone whose dog was called Badger, I'd be like, oh
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 9: ha ha yeah, like the other animal.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 5: Firefly.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 4: Firefly is the third choice.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 1: After animal meme song and then fire Ah. Very good, good,
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 1: good work. I think you know your fellow fans who
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: haven't taken their meds at two am. Okay, that is
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: the end of round three. Let's ask Nathan Fillian to
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: calculate the later scores. Oh, he's too busy siding with
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: Joss Whedon in the abuse allegations. That's a shame. I'll
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: do it myself.
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 4: Then fill me in on why the fuck you doing that?
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: Then fill me in have eighteen points and Alan's two
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: Dix have sixteen points.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 5: Close, still very close.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 1: It's oh so close, and anything can change. In the
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 1: quick fire around, it's complete chaos. But before we get
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 1: to that quick fire around, let's talk prizes. This episode's
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: star prize is the concept of rebellion. We need it
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: now more than ever. But it's going to take a
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 1: lot more than a letter writing campaign to a TV network,
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you that much. But our winning team will
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: also receive the secret DVDs of Firefly season two. Oh
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: but the HD DVDs does? Does anyone have an Xbox
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: three sixty Yeah?
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 5: Huh up.
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: Next is our crucial quick fire around, But first we
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: must play one final set of ads. They're smart ads,
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: so if they're for filthy things, that's on you, bud.
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: We'll be right back sweet. Shall we do this? Should
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: we do the quick fire quick Firefly film quick Firefly?
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: I don't even have that run down here.
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 9: You can edit that and claim the joke as your own.
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 1: Yes, I totally could. Our final quick Firefly round, we'll
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 1: test your broader pop culture knowledge and knowledge couldn't even
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 1: finish the bit. And it's called space ship hip shape.
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: In this game, I will give our players clues to
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: the name of a spaceship from pop culture history. Those
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 1: clues will be in the style of a captain giving
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 1: orders from the deck. I'm not gonna say mao, because
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: I don't know how strong my Nathan Fillion impression is.
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 4: No thyself.
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: All too well. And there's of course a classic gate
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: Leapers twist. After you say your answer, you need to
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 1: say a genre of nick knack you would put on
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: the control desk of this ship. It could be inspired
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: by the franchise that it's from, or whatever the hell
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: you want. That's random. Just say something just like the dinosaurs.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: So if it was Serenity and I'd put dinosaurs on
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: the on the front, would be then Okay, it's quick fire,
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: so buzz in by yelling out your team name. Let's
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 1: practice that.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 8: Now it's a brilliant.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: Sure, Okay, let's figure out how we're doing this. Dix
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: Dex is the to go. Yeah.
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I've been excited since we decided our name to.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 4: Phil Phil Phil Phil, just as short as Bill Dicks.
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 9: Hi, I'm Phil Dicks.
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 1: Okay, let's do a practice question, just because there's a
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: lot happening. If I said, all right, put that Game
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: of Deaderick aside. We've got Empire fighters coming in kid
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: Dick guess yes, Chris, oh shit.
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 8: Uh, Star Wars and I would put the fur of
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 8: an ewok on my console.
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: So definitely great. On what you would put on the
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: on the front of the console, that's a nick knack.
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 1: We're looking for the name of the ship.
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 8: Oh, name of the ship. Oh oh ship, My bad,
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 8: Millennium Falcon.
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 1: There we go, exactly so Millennium Falcon and then some
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: ewok fluff on the front. You can't ever say a
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: wrong answer for what is on the on the console.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 8: I was thinking more about that than what we're actually
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 8: supposed to be answering. So it's the of the ship.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 1: Okay, you can interrupt me at any points. Are we
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: all ready ready?
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 5: Yes?
