Soul Food (1997) Rewind: Comfort Shows, Nostalgia & the Soundtrack That Hit Our Souls · My Third Place Pod

• 0:00
  There's something about the end of February that always feels
• 0:02
  abrupt, like you just got used to writing the date, just got
• 0:06
  comfortable with the cold air hitting your face in the
• 0:08
  morning. It's snowing again, just got
• 0:12
  into the rhythm of winter nights and comfort shows, and suddenly
• 0:15
  the calendar is already flipping again.
• 0:18
  The Winter Olympics wrapped up almost as quickly as they
• 0:21
  arrived. One minute we were cheering for
• 0:24
  speed skaters flying across the ice, the next minute is closing
• 0:27
  ceremonies and highlight reels. And you're sitting there like,
• 0:31
  wait, that's it, it's over already.
• 0:32
  Tomorrow, I think. Tomorrow done over with.
• 0:38
  Thank God I can get watched back there again.
• 0:40
  Shit it. Is short month energy.
• 0:48
  Blink and you'll miss a season. Welcome back to my third place.
• 0:52
  Not home, not work, but the familiar in between where
• 0:55
  nostalgia still gets top billing and the past pulls up a chair
• 1:00
  next to the present. If you're new here, welcome.
• 1:03
  Pull up a chair. You've been riding with us.
• 1:05
  Welcome back. You already know the vibe.
• 1:07
  This is episode 278. It's just the flagship crew.
• 1:12
  I'm Evo. And with me, as always, is Mr.
• 1:14
  Memory Lane manager Greg, because somehow he always knows
• 1:18
  exactly which era, hobby, or random face to pull us back
• 1:21
  into. Tonight really feels like a time
• 1:29
  capsule episode. We're cracking up the audax and
• 1:32
  diving into a prompt that immediately sends you spiraling
• 1:34
  through old photos, old username, and old interest.
• 1:38
  Tonight we have top five hobbies or faces you were deep into at
• 1:41
  one point. The kind of phases where it
• 1:43
  wasn't just a hobby, it was your personality, your entire
• 1:46
  weekend, your conversation topic, whether people asked or
• 1:49
  not. We're reacting to the Toy Story
• 1:52
  5 trailer and I'm packing my just hearing those characters
• 1:55
  again feels like running into old friends you grew up with.
• 1:59
  We're also talking about what we actually did before phones and
• 2:02
  tech took over everything. Before group chats replaced
• 2:05
  front yard meetups, before YouTube replaced trial and
• 2:08
  error, Curiosity before boredom pours creativity instead of
• 2:12
  growing. Then we're stepping back into
• 2:15
  the ring with a Street Fighter rewatch.
• 2:17
  We're visiting that era where video games didn't just live on
• 2:19
  consoles, they jumped to the big screen with confidence camp and
• 2:24
  unforgettable 1 liners. And for Black History Month,
• 2:30
  we're closing things out with a deep dive into soul Food.
• 2:33
  The film, the theme, the family dynamic that still hit today put
• 2:37
  the spotlight on the soul food soundtrack because some
• 2:40
  soundtracks just accompany the movie.
• 2:42
  They became part of the cultural memory.
• 2:46
  And of course, because we can't help ourselves re asking the
• 2:49
  important question, what's your favorite Street Fighter the
• 2:52
  movie character says about it? Because somehow, those pics
• 2:59
  always reveal more than we expect.
• 3:01
  This episode lived in that reflective space, The one where
• 3:04
  you look back at who you wear, the faces you swore would blast
• 3:07
  forever, the characters, songs, and movies that quietly shaped
• 3:10
  you. Because whether it was arcade
• 3:12
  action figures, soundtracks, or backyard imagination, don't
• 3:15
  swear it just distractions. They were building blocks.
• 3:19
  So as February speeds by, as Winter quietly starts packing
• 3:22
  his bags, and as we sit here realizing just how fast times
• 3:25
  actually moved, we slow it down for a minute and remember, we
• 3:28
  laugh. We revisited the errors that
• 3:30
  made us who we are now. Welcome to episode 228 of the
• 3:34
  M3P Podcast, and we're glad you're here.
• 3:37
  Let's talk phases, fighters, family, and everything in
• 3:40
  between. Let's get into it.
• 3:42
  All right, man, how are you? How's your week?
• 3:45
  Pretty good, just working. I watched a straight fighter,
• 3:54
  then I watched Mortal Kombat. Yeah, then and the remake, yeah.
• 4:03
  Oh yeah, that's right, my wife Mortal Kombat not Mortal Kombat
• 4:16
  green fighter had to rapid like 399 forgot how cheesy that was
• 4:23
  and then I went to go buy some movies.
• 4:25
  Mortal Kombat the first one. But that's it.
• 4:29
  Oh, that's that new one though. Is that the new?
• 4:33
  One yes Hey, I got both of them.
• 4:46
  That's OK. Damn dude, even the new one has
• 4:50
  only has deleted scenes. That's it.
• 4:53
  Yeah, I was going to get the the other one.
• 4:55
  I'll get the other one next week.
• 4:56
  We'll talk about it next week, but I ended up getting soul food
• 5:00
  also on beauty. Hell, was you able to find a
• 5:04
  soul food on DVD? That's crazy.
• 5:07
  I ain't even got soul food on DVD.
• 5:11
  Second Charles. Second Charles 380.
• 5:13
  Five. That's crazy.
• 5:14
  I. Was like I was lucky to find
• 5:19
  soul food. I couldn't find Street Fighter.
• 5:21
  Those are the only two. We are talking about Trump.
• 5:28
  You gotta get reelected to find that muffler on DVD.
• 5:32
  I found Resident Evil, which we'll talk about that as well.
• 5:39
  There was a Mortal Kombat 1 and 2 Annihilation D set, the
• 5:45
  Resident Evil DVD set which is like 6 movies and they were
• 5:49
  cheap. They were cheap.
• 5:49
  So that's probably like when I got, I got.
• 5:51
  I look like that, yeah. Like I just want to get these
• 5:56
  real quick and then just go. I wasn't trying to stay there
• 5:59
  all day. Also, because I've seen this
• 6:04
  online so much that I wanted to do here Line date with a book.
• 6:12
  It doesn't tell you the book what it's called.
• 6:17
  It just tells you the description of it.
• 6:18
  It's a sci-fi fantasy. His house is an ordinary
• 6:23
  building. Its rooms are infinite, its
• 6:25
  quarters endless, its walls lined up with thousands upon
• 6:28
  thousands of statues. He lives to explore the house.
• 6:32
  There's only there's one other in the house who visits him
• 6:35
  twice a week and asked for help with research.
• 6:38
  But as he explores evidence, he emerges of another person, and a
• 6:42
  terrible truth begins to unravel, revealing a world
• 6:45
  beyond what he knows. Only 1195?
• 6:50
  No. Why not?
• 6:52
  So I figured I buy it. There was one in there already
• 6:57
  and it's like sci-fi. And I don't think anybody knows
• 7:02
  about this because it's been a while.
• 7:05
  But you're not supposed to tell them like what it's about like
• 7:10
  at least like do like a terrible description of the book, right?
• 7:14
  This one was like Captain Mal Reynolds is the captain of the
• 7:22
  Serenity. I'm like, really?
• 7:26
  You just gave a you get the entire talk.
• 7:28
  Like we know what it is already. Serenity.
• 7:30
  It's a fucking Firefly. What's his fault?
• 7:37
  What's his face? The rookie guy.
• 7:39
  It's that one book. It's that one TV show movie.
• 7:42
  It's a Firefly book, you know, and it's like, I want to get
• 7:46
  this, but same time, like I already know what it's about, so
• 7:48
  I'm going to get the other one because I don't know what it's
• 7:50
  about. I want to be surprised.
• 7:52
  Yeah. So I I went with that one.
• 7:55
  So yeah, it's not bad. All this came out till at.
• 7:58
  Least 20 hours. I ain't bad, not.
• 8:01
  Bad, not bad. Love that.
• 8:05
  What else happened this week? That's about it.
• 8:09
  You've been doing R&B on Tiktok. No, she.
• 8:12
  And I'm just saying the listeners don't know we've been
• 8:20
  doing R&B, but like, you know, it just.
• 8:26
  Brings you been killing it that bro.
• 8:27
  For real though. It's like some of these songs
• 8:32
  like totally about I don't know why Kitchen and then I freaking
• 8:37
  hear hear a fucking song from Babyface and immediately I'm
• 8:42
  like, how come I know this? What?
• 8:46
  Like, Oh yeah, he did a song with Kenny.
• 8:50
  Yeah, Kenny G Oh yeah, That's the song from the song
• 8:55
  soundtrack, you know. Oh yeah, and I've been watching
• 9:02
  that Sean Stark podcast and and so far my favorite episode was
• 9:09
  him with a homeboy from a backstreet AJ and and I was
• 9:19
  talking about how it's a song that never came out is
• 9:25
  Backstreet Boys and boys to men together.
• 9:31
  It It it's never is. It's like hidden, like it's
• 9:35
  never came out. There's been songs that he says
• 9:39
  that never came out or that are live in the area also that like
• 9:45
  way back in like a few episodes. And like I think the last
• 9:49
  episode I just watched was like episode or something says that
• 9:53
  when Aaliyah passed away, him and the boys did a song before
• 9:58
  her and every next day. And I'm like, what?
• 10:03
  That's fucking awesome. What's it called?
• 10:04
  What's it called? And I'm like looking for it, but
• 10:09
  is a it is basically a rendition of the song all that think of a
• 10:18
  tribute song. And then?
• 10:22
  That's. The name of the and he was
• 10:24
  talking about how he wants to put together like a like that
• 10:28
  festival for our bands, pop bands of the 90s.
• 10:35
  I said that shit would. That shit would be major though
• 10:38
  if we never come like it would though, think.
• 10:45
  Of all the Army people like killing it and like it'd be a
• 10:50
  lot for us. Basically, if you guys haven't
• 10:56
  heard it, go listen to it. It's called On That Note with
• 10:59
  Sean Stockman. He talks to all the R&B people
• 11:03
  and that's the fun part about it that I love about it is that he
• 11:07
  when he talks to Babyface, he talks to Bobby Brown, he talks
• 11:11
  to Skyler Austin from Pitch Perfect and they bring back old
• 11:16
  stuff about the 90s R&B and then your top five, top five male
• 11:25
  singer or female singer and they bring back like freaking Gerald
• 11:30
  Levert, Frankie Barry Marvin actor.
• 11:41
  And I'm just sitting there like, yeah.
• 11:43
  And then this last one last thing is Leslie Jones where she
• 11:47
  shot out Shiane nearly I went to yes, that's my 90.
• 11:54
  That's it right here. And then current it says, but
• 12:02
  yeah, we were we might just end up doing.
• 12:06
  You got to write these things down for me.
• 12:09
  Can I expect me to remember things like that at 4 AMI?
• 12:14
  Already know who said that? I already know you ain't got
• 12:20
  said, man. I know who said I got him, I got
• 12:28
  him. OK, we'll write it down for you.
• 12:32
  We'll send you stuff at Yeah, I gotta listen to this podcast
• 12:39
  'cause it is. So it takes you back to the 90s.
• 12:43
  RnB has you on the chokehold. It sure will with this here at
• 12:48
  least. I'm gonna keep you.
• 12:51
  Me too. 'Cause like it just gives you
• 12:55
  more ideas to do on Tiktok. Like I just like something came
• 12:59
  back like last night, the coupe. I'm gonna hear about them.
• 13:07
  I've been hearing. About them from my from my
• 13:09
  partners in high school. They always talk about the boy
• 13:11
  like that's what's up though and.
• 13:16
  They were talking about Selena. Paula.
• 13:18
  Diana was on it, just talking about Selena.
• 13:21
  I'm like, yeah, finally someone said it.
• 13:23
  Finally someone said it. Play.
• 13:25
  Where would we be with Selena? And oh.
• 13:27
  No, I have mercy. God, that is a great topic right
• 13:34
  there. Just to get out right off Selena
• 13:39
  like she was she was gonna crossover and Lord have mercy.
• 13:44
  I always think what could have been, even today, like oh man,
• 13:53
  oh have mercy. So like I said, next week
• 14:00
  probably would be like a like a short episode where we just talk
• 14:05
  about music. Not a short episode, but another
• 14:10
  as like a different type of episode where we talk about
• 14:12
  music and what these RnB songs like you know, where, where we
• 14:21
  when we first started hearing these, what we felt, I know
• 14:26
  we're supposed to do Mortal Kombat.
• 14:27
  We can do Mortal Kombat, but it's still like movies with that
• 14:32
  type of music as well. So yeah, that's next, next week.
• 14:38
  We could we could probably do that or next episode and like
• 14:42
  future episodes will do like, yeah and stuff.
• 14:48
  What else happened? Toy Story 5.
• 14:51
  Ain't what? I didn't watch the trailer.
• 14:54
  Nah, no. But I say little snippets of it,
• 14:58
  you know? I'm saying I know they was.
• 15:00
  I know they was talking about Woody.
• 15:02
  He bowed or some shit. John Cena, you got the John Cena
• 15:08
  right there. And they're like, somebody needs
• 15:12
  a red monster. So the New Girl, Bonnie, gets a
• 15:20
  Kindle. Yeah, Lily pad, iPad, whatever
• 15:23
  it's called. And everybody starts freaking
• 15:26
  out. The toys started freaking out.
• 15:28
  I was like, what are we going to do?
• 15:30
  And then the Lily pad has a toy also.
• 15:33
  So she's like, you know, you guys are extinct, you guys are
• 15:38
  obsolete. And like we're going to feel
• 15:40
  now. And then they go, Bonnie and her
• 15:43
  friends hanging out with her friends, but at the same time,
• 15:44
  they're not doing anything. They're just looking at their
• 15:46
  pads. And it was like.
• 15:48
  See, that's what I like. Came up with the and was on too
• 15:55
  the entire week and I'm like, yeah, what would we be dealing
• 15:59
  without pads, like or tech? What the hell?
• 16:02
  Why are we so yeah to that. What happened to just going
• 16:08
  outside? What happened to Toy Story 1
• 16:10
  where we just had parties and did all kinds of shit outside,
• 16:14
  you know, and or said with trying to kill the the toys.
• 16:18
  So like those type of things, but I guess they really want to
• 16:24
  do like a real life story where like we're on to the the tech
• 16:28
  now and I'm like, yeah, I'll go watch it, but the same time I'm
• 16:32
  not going to like it, damn it. There's also a new game out for
• 16:44
  Scream. It's a like a, it's like a
• 16:50
  little chess piece where like you and five other people
• 16:56
  supposed to hide around the house, but chess pieces, you got
• 16:59
  to move them around the mouth with the mouse.
• 17:01
  It's on the computer or like you want to download on your phone,
• 17:05
  mobile app. You have 15 seconds to hide and
• 17:11
  another 60 seconds for Ghostface to find you.
• 17:14
  Along the way you find stuff to distract him, like you can have
• 17:20
  like a little phone device and like making a ring and then you
• 17:23
  go hide somewhere else and he has 60 seconds to find you.
• 17:30
  He's found two other people that stabbed their dad that can no
• 17:33
  longer play or they can start over.
• 17:36
  But if he doesn't find you, you can continue to the next round.
• 17:39
  And then there are more rounds than that.
• 17:42
  After the 60 seconds are over, the police come in and start
• 17:44
  looking for him and stuff. He runs off.
• 17:48
  It's a great game. I put in the on the show notes
• 17:50
  the link and I'll send you there.
• 17:52
  Also. It's a great game.
• 17:53
  I'm thinking about live streaming it playing and live
• 17:56
  streaming it at the same time on YouTube.
• 17:58
  Keep it happens and then posting it on TikTok like this is fun.
• 18:02
  It was fun for around for a while and then I was like,
• 18:05
  alright, I'm gonna save this for the next time so I can show you
• 18:08
  and stuff. But yeah, it's, it's a pretty
• 18:13
  like old 62nd game, fun game and all.
• 18:18
  See, that's it for the week, man.
• 18:20
  It's like, I've been good. Drink water.
• 18:24
  Drink lots of water. We're enjoying the night.
• 18:28
  We're enjoying the night. Right, guys?
• 18:30
  Everybody enjoying the week. Yeah.
• 18:34
  All right, let's open the group chat.
• 18:37
  It's time for projects. We like to start by tossing the
• 18:40
  quest in the community. Nostalgic, chaotic or
• 18:42
  thoughtful. And then we read your answers
• 18:43
  live because this shows him just us talking at you.
• 18:45
  It's us talking with you always. Yes, she says yes.
• 18:49
  They all say yes. From last week's question we
• 18:51
  asked you to sentence. Do we ask you to finish the
• 18:54
  sentence? What was always on when you were
• 18:56
  home sick? Lots of you said price is right.
• 19:03
  This week. Ray said price is right.
• 19:05
  All my children won't like to live.
• 19:07
  General Hospital. I'm telling me to hydrate too.
• 19:11
  You hydrate too? Oh, yeah.
• 19:13
  I told Jane to hydrate because she needs to.
• 19:16
  And then she's all like what, telling me to hydrate.
• 19:23
  I was like, yes, ma'am, you telling me to hydrate?
• 19:25
  I got to tell you to hydrate too.
• 19:26
  Ross's Maureen Jerry and judge shows.
• 19:29
  I guess I guess it counts all day that you were sick.
• 19:37
  I'm just saying rated Patty G says as the world turns are
• 19:42
  younger, the restless days of our lives guiding light and
• 19:44
  whenever that game show was that was the whammy.
• 19:51
  I forgot what it was called. It's with the whammy.
• 19:54
  I know, I know what it's called is the is it called the whammy?
• 20:00
  OK. I think I think it will.
• 20:08
  Man, it says press your oh. Excuse the hell out of me.
• 20:17
  Good luck, there's a show, Katie Hoffman says.
• 20:22
  Unfortunately I was never really sick as a kid and since my mom
• 20:24
  was a nurse and the school nurse part time me, unless we were
• 20:27
  literally dying or bleeding from somewhere, we weren't allowed to
• 20:29
  stay home or even come to the nurse's office and lay down.
• 20:32
  So I do remember a lot of these shows, but I noticed never was
• 20:36
  sick and home watching them. OK, before we go to the next set
• 20:42
  of questions, we got to take a second to show some love because
• 20:44
  the community absolutely showed out this week.
• 20:46
  We asked to pod that question this week.
• 20:48
  What was your favorite way to pass time before our phones took
• 20:50
  over everything? And what are your top five
• 20:54
  comfort shows you watch when life gets overwhelming and y'all
• 20:56
  showed up? Over 150 comments, more than
• 20:59
  3000 views combined and people are still answering.
• 21:03
  That tells me something important.
• 21:05
  These weren't just random questions, these were core
• 21:07
  memory questions. You had folks talk about riding
• 21:10
  bikes in the street, lights came on, channel surfing until
• 21:13
  school, rewinding VHS tapes and just being outside with no
• 21:17
  notifications, no time life, no pressure, just living in the
• 21:20
  moment. And then on the flip side, your
• 21:23
  comfort shows. Y'all pulled out everything from
• 21:25
  classic sitcoms to cartoons to drama you've seen 100 times but
• 21:29
  still hit the same when life gets loud.
• 21:32
  So seriously, we thank you to the day one, the new commenters
• 21:35
  jumping in. We see you, we appreciate you,
• 21:38
  and you are officially part of the show because your answers
• 21:42
  help shape these episodes more than you probably realize.
• 21:46
  So go back if you haven't. Drop your answers and keep the
• 21:50
  conversation going. We're still reading them, still
• 21:53
  reacting to them, and honestly, we might pull some of responses
• 21:56
  into a future episode. That's the magic of this
• 21:59
  community. You don't just listen to the
• 22:01
  podcast, you help build it. Now take a press with me in and
• 22:05
  out. Let's keep this energy going.
• 22:08
  So what was the special occasion food in your house?
• 22:11
  Post a picture if you have one. What was it?
• 22:16
  Greg? You know you have a lot
• 22:20
  celebration, like Oh my God, you just graduated high school, you
• 22:24
  got a good grade. You basically did something that
• 22:30
  your parents are proud of. You did something that your
• 22:33
  family was proud of. Anything and said here, let's
• 22:39
  buy you dinner, let's make you dinner, homemade dinner.
• 22:41
  What was it? Barbecue ribs, headquarters.
• 22:52
  I mean, brisket, fucking potato salad and shit like that, you
• 22:59
  know, Hot links, you know, I'm saying so, you know, that's,
• 23:07
  that was the celebration food really with my family, Yeah.
• 23:15
  My mom is from Nicaragua so of course she brings out freaking
• 23:20
  spicy, the spice. She brings out the freaking
• 23:26
  Gallo Pinto, which is rice and beans combined.
• 23:29
  But like made to look like it's one big dish and not 2 Asian, I
• 23:39
  don't know, Bellatian rice, which is a whole lot of stuff,
• 23:47
  sausage, chicken, rice, vegetables in there.
• 23:54
  It is like cooked for at least an hour or two because you have
• 23:59
  to Add all these ingredients to it.
• 24:02
  Plantains, maduros, sweet bananas, basically.
• 24:09
  And then, of course, she's all like, let's go get some pupusas,
• 24:13
  which is Salvadorian and like, you know, across the street, go
• 24:16
  get some pupusas. We're going to celebrate.
• 24:18
  I was like, all right, so pupusas, freaking hell yeah.
• 24:23
  They're amazing. They're like empanadas.
• 24:30
  Maybe not, but they're delicious, too.
• 24:34
  If you have any Salvadorian restaurant around there, most
• 24:38
  likely get it if you're in. If you're around there, Ray
• 24:46
  says. Hot sauce and spare rib with
• 24:48
  refried beans, scrambled eggs, fried potatoes and homemade
• 24:51
  tortillas. What feeling did you get?
• 24:56
  Pork. Always getting pork and lala
• 25:01
  gunnings. Banadias.
• 25:02
  I mean, I think it is what they're called.
• 25:04
  Not to be mistaken for empanadas.
• 25:06
  They're the same thing. I tried looking it up.
• 25:09
  They're the same thing. Unless she's talking about
• 25:11
  something up. Miriam Wellspring says baklava.
• 25:16
  Yeah, it's an Indian. Spicy.
• 25:28
  Spicy. My mom always made it for other
• 25:31
  people and we got the scrap from size of the pan.
• 25:33
  We got lucky. If you made the host in house,
• 25:35
  then we got a real piece. Victor.
• 25:40
  Victor Arroz can do this. Puerto Rican rice and pasteles
• 25:50
  send the boat, says Wantons. Big part of the fun was sitting
• 25:53
  around the table folding them so like they made them themselves.
• 25:59
  Guinness and Whiskey Girl says I love making shrimp and grits for
• 26:02
  a Monday breakfast. Yes, menace, says Pastelis, The
• 26:08
  special occasion dish we would have at my grandma's house.
• 26:11
  They're a labour of luck because the masa was hand grated
• 26:14
  plantains, green bananas, potatoes and Taro root and Akoit
• 26:19
  oil. The filling was a slow cooked
• 26:22
  pork roast with green onions. Sofrito, we would put the masa,
• 26:29
  aquile oil and meat inside of a banana leaf, wrap them up, tie
• 26:34
  it up with twine and then boil for one hour.
• 26:36
  Then we would eat it with rice and ketchup.
• 26:41
  That is fucking something special.
• 26:45
  That is, that is the same thing as the mouse from my house or
• 26:52
  with the family over here. Just fucking like, I don't know,
• 26:56
  no, I'm good. Y'all can like worry about your
• 27:01
  arthritis later on, but not banana ketchup on banana.
• 27:10
  Ask me this. Katie says those look really
• 27:14
  good. I don't know what any of those
• 27:16
  are, but they look really good. Usually some sort of special
• 27:18
  case. My mom would make lasagna, my
• 27:21
  grandma would make her sour cream cookies every Christmas.
• 27:25
  There are so many of us that have attempted to recreate them
• 27:27
  since she passed away and they didn't taste.
• 27:28
  That's good. But yes, food has always been
• 27:31
  that signifies some sort of an occasion.
• 27:35
  James says about my birthday special occasion cake.
• 27:37
  Mom is always making the Jelly cake.
• 27:39
  She posted a picture of it. It looks great.
• 27:43

• 28:04
  your heart right there and then. Like there was one person.
• 28:11
  Of course, that always has to. Like, that's it.
• 28:21
  Anyway, we gotta says Mom would make cabbage rolls.
• 28:26
  They would take her all day and they were amazing, right?
• 28:29
  And if it takes all day, you're gonna have to eat that and make

  me something? No, she's not.
• 30:46
  Like if she said, like, I'm still love you the same either
• 30:48
  way, but still, you're trying to tell me something and my
• 30:50
  brother's all like, you won't let them put up girl posters.

  motherfuckers ruined it. So yeah, those were it.
• 32:02
  What else? There was some other stuff,
• 32:03
  video games, going outside, hanging out with friends, all
• 32:06
  that shit before it took over. Everything, Sheila Lama says
• 32:13
  still begins. But I enjoyed being outside,
• 32:16
  playing, hiking, enjoying life, hippie Nirvana.
• 32:19
  Kids, they will never know what it was like to take a ton of
• 32:22
  pictures and have to wait a week to find out they're useless.
• 32:28
  Disposable cameras. Disposable cameras were, yes,
• 32:32
  me. You took a bunch of and you
• 32:39
  didn't know if it was going to be come out as good or bad.
• 32:42
  Sometimes you took a picture of me you forgot because somebody
• 32:48
  flashed you because it was New Year's Eve day and they wanted
• 32:54
  to flash. And I was like, OK, here you go.
• 32:56
  And then when you get the fucking picture back from people
• 32:59
  that work, blah, blah, blah and all that shit, here's your
• 33:02
  pictures. I was like, gosh, why?
• 33:05
  What happened? Oh, no, go for it.
• 33:10
  Open it up. Look at the because back then
• 33:14
  they had to do it like, you know, they had to put it in an
• 33:18
  envelope for a reason, right? And see boobs, I'm like, oh,
• 33:21
  trouble, buddy. So yeah, that was fun to do at
• 33:31
  the time. It's mom 7 says daydreaming.

  Rebecca says ride my bike outside, planned a tire swing,
• 33:39
  jump on the trampoline, go swimming, go to parks Karina or

  Your local con man says I'm younger than y'all I believe.
• 33:50
  But going outside or since I had brothers, we always wrestle to
• 33:53
  eat and got in trouble. But this is a changeling in our
• 33:58

  Yes, your name. But me, with my fear of heights,
• 35:14
  with the climbing of trees that were not my favorite exactly.
• 35:33
  Welcome back. That's menace now, technical
• 35:42
  difficulties be damned. Greg lost Wi-Fi power, so had to
• 35:49
  call in a favor. Had to call in a favor from my
• 35:52
  friends from DX. I'm kidding family.
• 35:58
  Sometimes you just need family. This is not a wrestling episode,
• 36:02

  True, true. We talk about wrestling at this
• 36:32
  time. All right, so all right, before
• 36:37
  we jump in the next set of questions, we got to take a
• 36:39
  second and show some love because the community absolutely
• 36:42
  showed out this week. We asked 2 pod deck questions
• 36:45

• 37:13
  These weren't just random questions.
• 37:15
  These were core memory questions.
• 37:16
  You had people talking about riding bikes until the
• 37:19
  streetlights came on, channel surfing after school, rewinding
• 37:22
  VHS tapes and just being outside with no notifications, no time
• 37:27
  lapse, no pressure, just living in a moment.
• 37:31
  And then on the flip side, your comfort shows.
• 37:34
  Y'all pulled out everything from classic sitcoms to cartoon to
• 37:37
  dramas you've seen 100 times but still hit that same when life
• 37:42

  We had TV Guide channel was just his own channel.
• 41:43
  Free stuff, free to watch 30 minutes before the show before a

  And it'd be like at Channel 2 to 56782 to 8 and then 9 to 16,
• 42:23
  whatever it was like that and and paperbacks in the house.
• 42:29
  We had the TV Guide book. Which was a.

• 43:35
  where we we were patient like they're not, they're like they

  seasons, you know? Like the K Dibbs, obviously kids

  and I was like, oh, these are, this is a pretty funny show, you
• 48:49
  know, So I was like, let me, let me see where I can watch it.

  So I watched it on on HBO Max and for like 4 months after I

  came home from work, that's what I watched because I was like,
• 49:02
  OK, there's twelve seasons. I got to get through 12 seasons
• 49:05
  and I'm like, this is really funny.
• 49:09
  And I could, I could watch it over and over again, you know,
• 49:14
  and it's, it's one of those that would pick me up.
• 49:18
  Definitely it would pick me up because it's, it's like some of
• 49:25
  these, just the way that they interacted with each other is so
• 49:29
  ridiculous, you know, but it's like ridiculously funny, right,
• 49:35
  Right. They were their dynamic is very,
• 49:40
  you know, it's cohesive and it just it just makes me just makes
• 49:45
  me feel good to watch it. Yeah, because some of it is
• 49:52
  true, like Elder not knowing how to drive for like years.
• 49:56
  Yeah, that was me. I didn't know how to drive until
• 49:59
  like I didn't have my license. I knew how to drive.

• 50:16
  I can drive and do whatever I want and.

  And they're like, if you pass the written test, you just have
• 50:39
  to schedule your drive. Yeah, cool.
• 50:43
  I passed a written test. I never scheduled a drive.
• 50:46
  And then I was like, you know what, I'm tired of being
• 50:50
  chauffeured around, you know, I'm like, I have, I want to be
• 50:54
  able to not have to depend on somebody else.
• 50:58
  So I got my license six weeks before I turned 20, you know,
• 51:06
  and like the first time my mom's like, oh, I need something from

  were freaking ruthless back then with us.

  Like we talked about the one teacher that, you know, always
• 52:54
  picked on us to go do our oral presentation.
• 52:57
  We talked about that one teacher who always had a pig and she
• 53:01
  brought a pig with her. Wow.

  the same director who brought My Name is Earl.
• 1:00:49
  Oh, was it OK? And there was another one also.
• 1:00:54
  And then towards the ending of Raising Hope, I think around
• 1:00:58
  season 3, he brought in some of the people from My Name is Earl.
• 1:01:05
  OK Interacted with them. And it's just like, what's your

  Oh, you know what? I've got another one, The George
• 1:01:26
  Lopez Show there. It is.
• 1:01:29
  I could I I loved that show and I'm see, I actually watched his
• 1:01:36
  new, you know, the newer George Lopez show or Lopez versus
• 1:01:43
  Lopez. What it was his daughter.
• 1:01:46
  And you know what I'm like. It's to me.
• 1:01:50
  I mean, it's it's a good show, but I like nothing beats the
• 1:01:53
  original show. You know, I I can and it's
• 1:01:57
  funny. I can relate to his daughter,
• 1:02:06
  you know, you know, because she I deal with what she's dealing
• 1:02:10
  with. She doesn't speak Spanish, even
• 1:02:12
  though, you know, her parents. Did you know?
• 1:02:17
  So there's this one episode where that came into play and,
• 1:02:21
  you know, backfired on her. So I was like, but her was it.
• 1:02:26
  Her son speaks Spanish because his grandparents are teaching in
• 1:02:32
  Spanish. But I was like, oh, I was like,
• 1:02:35
  yeah, I I would hate for that to happen there.
• 1:02:39
  Was another one DSL show? Cristela Cristela.
• 1:02:45
  I love Cristela too. That was, I'm gonna say it, I
• 1:02:50
  was very modern. Yes.

  Very woke and I loved it. Yeah.
• 1:02:57
  Because it just had like, yeah, it was the most funniest thing
• 1:03:01
  ever. Yeah.
• 1:03:02
  And it went on Netflix and then it stopped.
• 1:03:04
  I'm like, oh, they're 2 fucking. You know what else was a really
• 1:03:08
  good show that they had on Netflix?
• 1:03:10
  And they took it off one day at a time.
• 1:03:16
  Wasn't that the same one? So.
• 1:03:19
  Which one? One day at a time.
• 1:03:20
  Who had? So it was a, it was a remake
• 1:03:25
  show from the show in the 70s. So they made it where now it was
• 1:03:34
  Rita Moreno. Yeah.
• 1:03:36
  Rita Moreno was the grandma, Yeah.
• 1:03:39
  Not Stella Cristela. Oh, Cristela, Yeah.
• 1:03:41
  Yeah, Justina Machado, Marina Moreno, and then that's the one
• 1:03:45
  I was, I was thinking. About.
• 1:03:46
  Yeah, yeah. What was?
• 1:03:47
  Cristela about Cristela was about a Mexican girl who lived
• 1:03:54
  with her sister and brother-in-law.
• 1:03:58
  And yeah, of course Cristela is, you know, she's the aunt.
• 1:04:05
  So the you know, the kids, you know, they were they would
• 1:04:09
  confide in her, but you know, it's like, and then they had
• 1:04:11
  their mom was there too. So it was just kind of like, you
• 1:04:16
  know, a female George Lopez kind of thing, right.
• 1:04:20
  But still, I loved it. And then when, what they were?
• 1:04:24

  that. I'm glad that's your comfort
• 1:22:35

  that I did like on them on the post.
• 1:22:49
  The ones I didn't like, I'll put of do it for next week and we'll
• 1:22:53
  talk about them more and just like them as I go along.
• 1:22:56
  I'm going to keep it up in the pin for like another week, see
• 1:23:00
  how that goes. But you gave me the idea
• 1:23:06
  yesterday of having the consensus with people still
• 1:23:11
  answering but. You can't do it.
• 1:23:14
  I can't do it. That's OK.
• 1:23:16
  I was just thinking if there was a like a lot of repeats, then
• 1:23:20
  you could say which, you know, we, from what I've heard there's
• 1:23:25
  you know, a lot of repeats. So I thought maybe that you
• 1:23:29
  could do a consensus of that, but with still people still
• 1:23:33
  answering, you know? No, we'll do this.
• 1:23:35
  We'll do that. It's all good.
• 1:23:37
  We'll. Wait another week or so.
• 1:23:39
  Yeah, so. It stopped it.
• 1:23:41
  It like calms down and then start counting how many people
• 1:23:45
  and then do like an M3P comfort show.
• 1:23:49
  Top 10 comfort shows. Yeah.
• 1:23:52
  The 10 most watched shows that everybody picked, you'd have to
• 1:23:57
  turn comments off. I don't want to.
• 1:23:59
  I don't. That'd be the first time I ever
• 1:24:01
  do something like that. But I don't want to.
• 1:24:03
  Yeah, like I I want the comments.
• 1:24:04
  I want the interaction, you know, So I was thinking that
• 1:24:12
  next one would be comfort movies.
• 1:24:17
  And if you have 1A comfort song, like what is the song that you
• 1:24:21
  are comfortable listening to? OK.
• 1:24:25
  Maybe that could be April. April, yeah.
• 1:24:29
  March would be comfort movies. Yeah.
• 1:24:32
  April's comfort songs, Let's go, let's do that.
• 1:24:35
  Cuz it takes a whole month for me to like, read through the
• 1:24:37
  entire thing, yeah. Exactly.
• 1:24:43
  Wow. I mean, it's just a thought.
• 1:24:46
  You do what you want to do. For real.
• 1:24:49
  No, we can do that. We can definitely do that.
• 1:24:55
  So we just went through. We just went through that.
• 1:25:03
  We bypass your whole time, your whole intro.
• 1:25:06
  How are you doing? OK.
• 1:25:08
  No, it's OK. This was short notice so it's

• 1:25:22
  For yeah, Yep, I'm super excited for Elimination Chamber
• 1:25:27
  predictions. All right, good.
• 1:25:30
  My only thing is, and I'll just talk about this just for a
• 1:25:32
  little bit, is I don't think they should allow champions to
• 1:25:39
  be in to try to win, you know, and.
• 1:25:44
  You already have a belt. The other belt, you know, No2
• 1:25:47
  belt people, Sorry. Two belt, Becky.
• 1:25:51
  Nope. No2 belt, Becky, you know, we
• 1:25:55
  already had Don, you know, Dom trying and he's trying to get
• 1:25:58
  the third belt. No, no, thank you.
• 1:26:03
  So but but in that, you know, I think they they've they've
• 1:26:08
  gotten some good, you know, some good fights in there.
• 1:26:12
  Yeah, they do, you know, to to try to go into the Elimination
• 1:26:16
  Chamber. More on that next week.
• 1:26:20
  More on that. And on Wednesday, actually.
• 1:26:23
  Yes. We were going to do Street
• 1:26:29
  Fighter, but Greg's Wi-Fi decided to take a turn.
• 1:26:32
  So. You know, technical difficulties
• 1:26:35
  be damned, the show must go on, as they say.
• 1:26:41
  We did talk about a little bit about soul food this past week,
• 1:26:44
  because I watched it on last week.
• 1:26:49
  So picture this. It's Sunday afternoon.
• 1:26:51
  The house smells like a collard greens, macaroni and cheese, and
• 1:26:55
  somebody's auntie is arguing about who really brought the
• 1:26:58
  best dish. You hear laughter in one room,
• 1:27:01
  drama in another, and Big Mama holding court at the head of the
• 1:27:04
  table like the family's moral compass.
• 1:27:07
  Today we're talking about a film that defines Black family
• 1:27:10
  storytelling, regeneration, Soul Food 1997.
• 1:27:14
  A movie about love, legacy, and the beautiful chaos of family
• 1:27:17
  tradition. Let's break the bread and the
• 1:27:19
  impact. So soul food and centers on the
• 1:27:22
  Joseph sisters, Terry, Maxine and Byrd and their extended
• 1:27:26
  family, held together by the weekly Sunday dinners hosted by
• 1:27:28
  the March Big Mama. Through triumphs, secrets,
• 1:27:33
  marriages, betrayals and reconciliation, the film
• 1:27:36
  explores how family traditions become emotional anchors even
• 1:27:39
  when the relationships start to fracture.
• 1:27:42
  When Big Mama falls, I'll the sisters are forced to confront
• 1:27:44
  their own unresolved conflicts and rediscovered the meaning of
• 1:27:47
  unity, forgiveness, and generational legacy.
• 1:27:50
  At its core. This isn't just about food.
• 1:27:52
  It's about who we come because of the table we grew up at.
• 1:27:58
  So why did I go watch this movie?
• 1:27:59
  Because it had such an amazing soundtrack.
• 1:28:03
  I just wanted to watch movie about family and food and be
• 1:28:07
  like, let me take it to my mom because I was so into R&B at the
• 1:28:11
  time. I was so into everything.
• 1:28:13
  I love that culture cast a powerhouse cast at the time
• 1:28:22
  Vanessa Williams as Terry Joseph, the successful but
• 1:28:25
  emotional guarded eldest sister at the time.
• 1:28:29
  We all know her at the time as Save the Best for last.
• 1:28:34
  Now we know her as Ugly Betty's bitch up a boss.
• 1:28:43
  Have not seen Vanessa Williams and anything after bugging a
• 1:28:46
  Betty. I don't think she has.
• 1:28:49
  I think she kind of kept a low profile.
• 1:28:55
  Like, ever since Ugly Betty, I'm like, OK, let me know when
• 1:29:04
  you're done, all right? OK.
• 1:29:12
  OK, I'll edit that out bigger. A fox has been obscene,
• 1:29:17
  passionate, outspoken and fiercely loyal.
• 1:29:20
  I remember her from Independence Day, loved her then and you
• 1:29:26
  might know her now like now. I haven't seen her anything
• 1:29:30
  other than being 50 Cent side piece like a couple years back.
• 1:29:35
  Sorry. OK.
• 1:29:40
  They were pretty hot and heavy so.
• 1:29:44
  Hopefully, no. She's not coming back for Kill
• 1:29:47
  Dale, is she? No, she, she, she's gone.
• 1:29:51
  Her kid is there, but she's not coming back for it.
• 1:29:54
  Nia Long as Bird, the romantic dreamer now getting love and
• 1:29:57
  independence. Nia Long and everything can't
• 1:30:01
  lose. Makai Pfeiffer as Lambert's
• 1:30:05
  complicated love interest. Her husband.
• 1:30:08
  Her. Husband There's no movie that no
• 1:30:10
  shows. Makai Pfeiffer.
• 1:30:12
  Thank you, Eminem. Irma P Hall as Big Mama, the
• 1:30:16
  heart and soul of the family and iconic performance that still
• 1:30:18
  resonates today. Ma'am.
• 1:30:21
  Big Mama. Yes, always Big Mama.
• 1:30:25
  I don't know who this chick was. Gina Rivera's Faith, the cousin
• 1:30:28
  who's arrival triggers buried family tensions.
• 1:30:32
  I had to read that right. Who's not something else anyway?
• 1:30:38
  Every character feels lived in, authentic and layered,
• 1:30:41
  reflecting different chase of Black womanhood, manhood and
• 1:30:44
  generational perspective. Even the men in the in the movie
• 1:30:48
  like McKay, Pfeiffer and the husbands of these other women
• 1:30:52
  are may do like are in this as well, and they're big part of
• 1:30:57
  the movie cultural impact influence today.
• 1:31:01
  Soul Food changed the conversation around Black family
• 1:31:03
  storytelling by normalizing Black family complexity.
• 1:31:06
  It presented a loving but imperfect family, layered,
• 1:31:09
  flawed, emotional and deeply real.
• 1:31:11
  No stereotype, just humanity. It's so it's like, yeah, like
• 1:31:17
  wanted to see that. Like, it's not always perfect.
• 1:31:20
  Like every. Other.
• 1:31:22
  And like we change that into every new movie that comes out
• 1:31:27
  the family stone, every new movie out in Christmas, on
• 1:31:30
  Thanksgiving, all that stuff. So this is the the blueprint of
• 1:31:34
  it. Yeah.
• 1:31:36
  Launching expanded storytelling, the film plus S led to the
• 1:31:39
  soulful television series on Showtime from 2000 to 2004
• 1:31:43
  proving black ensemble family dramas has staying power.
• 1:31:46
  You can see his DNA and multi generational stereo telling
• 1:31:49
  Sunday dinner reunion as emotional centerpiece.
• 1:31:51
  Strong black women with distinct personalities and arcs.
• 1:31:55
  Shows and films today, from family dramas to streaming
• 1:31:57
  series, will still borrow this blueprint of food, family,
• 1:32:00
  forgiveness, emotional storytelling, gold even.
• 1:32:03
  Like before the pandemic, we would go to one of my aunt's
• 1:32:08
  house and have Sunday dinner, Sunday breakfast, crunch and
• 1:32:15
  have like the entire day would be spent there.
• 1:32:18
  Just more family would come over and freaking bring food.
• 1:32:22
  And I was like, this is worse than Thanksgiving.
• 1:32:25
  What the hell, man? You know.
• 1:32:28
  And as the day goes on, like some people would leave and then
• 1:32:32
  other people would come by. I was like, oh, is this person
• 1:32:34
  already come in? Here's more.
• 1:32:36
  Like, yeah, yeah. Before my mom passed away, we
• 1:32:41
  used to go to my grandma's every Sunday.
• 1:32:44
  Yeah. And we'd have, you know, dinner
• 1:32:46
  with, with my grandparents and then we'd play Poquino after.
• 1:32:53
  And, you know, it was, it was, you know, memories that, you
• 1:32:58
  know, time you can't ever get back, you know, and then it's
• 1:33:02
  like after my mom died, it was life just got busy, got
• 1:33:08
  complicated. And I'm like, I wish things were
• 1:33:14
  better than, you know, where we kept that, you know, because I,
• 1:33:20
  I lost my grandfather in 2014 and then I lost my grandmother
• 1:33:28
  in 2019, you know, and I, you know, we just, we just don't
• 1:33:36
  talk to our family anymore, you know, and there's just some
• 1:33:41
  issues. But I I wish I could go back in
• 1:33:45
  time and, you know, say we need to fix this so that this doesn't
• 1:33:52
  happen. I mean, grandparents, of course,
• 1:33:55
  you know, they were in their 90s.
• 1:33:58
  So, you know, they, you know, they're going to pass.
• 1:34:03
  But it's like, I wish I had more time with them before they
• 1:34:07
  passed. Yeah.
• 1:34:10
  So this, you know, this movie really resonated with me.
• 1:34:15
  Yeah. Like it was like wish my family
• 1:34:19
  and back home which do the same thing as here, but no, instead
• 1:34:23
  my family here can go this year and we have so much fun.
• 1:34:29
  It's like different type of family.
• 1:34:31
  Like I didn't blame my family back there in California.
• 1:34:34
  It's just like my mom would just be like, you do what you want to
• 1:34:38
  do if you want to have dinner here or have dinner at your
• 1:34:41
  friend's house. No, let me go have one of my
• 1:34:44
  friend's house because she bought like for for
• 1:34:47
  Thanksgiving. She bought a Turkey.
• 1:34:48
  Not even Turkey rotisserie chicken where my like I'm gonna
• 1:34:54
  go to my best friend's house. My best friend had like the
• 1:34:57
  whole freaking the. Dinner.
• 1:34:58
  Dinner. Just like, thanks man.
• 1:35:01
  It's like whenever I come over, obviously my mom makes the dish
• 1:35:06
  that I love and she's all like, where you going to?
• 1:35:10
  Where you going to be at tonight?
• 1:35:12
  You going to be here because she's not going to be there at
• 1:35:14
  all tonight. She made the food, but either I
• 1:35:17
  stay home or I go, I'll go out. Like if you do stay here, it's
• 1:35:21
  like it's up to you if you want to eat the whole thing.
• 1:35:23
  If you do go out, take it with you to so and so's house, have
• 1:35:27
  dinner there with them. You know, I made this for you so
• 1:35:31
  and there's a whole trait too. And I'm like, damn.
• 1:35:36
  So I take it over there to my best friend's house and him, his
• 1:35:40
  wife, and we're all eating it and like, having a great time
• 1:35:43
  and everything and like, who made this?
• 1:35:47
  My mom's like, oh hell yeah. Yeah.
• 1:35:50
  Yeah. So you love.
• 1:35:51
  He loved my mom's cooking. Every time he would come over,
• 1:35:55
  like here and he'd eat it. It's like, yes, I know.
• 1:36:02
  I know. It's like, yeah, so yeah.
• 1:36:07
  So what do you love about the movie besides that?
• 1:36:12
  You know I. Know we're talking.
• 1:36:13
  I know we were talking about the entire saying yeah, whole part
• 1:36:17
  where Terry finds her husband. Correct.
• 1:36:24
  Yeah, we talked about that and you were like, oh, that wouldn't
• 1:36:27
  really happen. I'm like, yeah, it could happen.
• 1:36:31
  But you know, you know, aside from the music, I, I just
• 1:36:38
  appreciated the family bond. You know, we all have our
• 1:36:43
  differences, but having having your family, knowing your family
• 1:36:50
  has your back really is like resonates with me.
• 1:36:56
  So I really loved the family bond that they had.
• 1:37:03
  Yeah. And then I was going in on.
• 1:37:06
  Not faith, but no the core. The core family.
• 1:37:14
  The core. Not, yeah, not the.
• 1:37:16
  Extended Family. Not W.
• 1:37:21
  Core, but the regular. Core, can I say that on here?
• 1:37:28
  No, I don't think that's CG. No.
• 1:37:33
  Yeah, Restricted. I can't say it in front of her
• 1:37:36
  guys. Sorry.
• 1:37:37
  Yeah, we were, we were talking about last time.
• 1:37:45
  Makai Pfeiffer. Yeah.
• 1:37:47
  Getting the job. Yeah.
• 1:37:50
  Lam getting the job and him going eating lunch and here
• 1:37:54
  comes this fucking asshole bird. Ex-boyfriend showed up I was
• 1:38:00
  like there he is my brother what's going on?
• 1:38:03
  Hey and then we see this whole I don't know what the camera work
• 1:38:07
  for this one was, but the whole fact that we saw lambs forehead
• 1:38:12
  and eyes like oh really? You know talk with your eyes.
• 1:38:16
  What was his name? The ex-boyfriend.
• 1:38:19
  You know it. I don't remember what his name
• 1:38:22
  was. I know the actor because he used
• 1:38:24
  to be on for the single. Oh, OK.
• 1:38:27
  Yeah. So he's talking, Yeah.
• 1:38:31
  Talk with your lips. But you know, every now and
• 1:38:33
  then, just like lick your lip, Makai, every now and then just
• 1:38:39
  raise your eyebrow like you're about to say something.
• 1:38:41
  I'm like, why are we doing? Why are we focusing in on bro's
• 1:38:45
  lips? Like bro, can we not?
• 1:38:48
  And then yeah, I mean, you know, me and Coca-Cola go way back and
• 1:38:52
  like, oh, oh, what? What the fuck is that how you
• 1:38:54
  mean? Oh yeah, she has a body as a
• 1:38:57
  Coke can't or a bottle and everything.
• 1:39:01
  And Lamb just freaking wails him with the tray and knocks him
• 1:39:06
  down. There is not like calming him
• 1:39:08
  down. It's like you're fired, like
• 1:39:11
  came over just, you know, you you hook up your ex girlfriend's
• 1:39:16
  husband with a new job and then you get him fired on the same
• 1:39:21
  day. Yeah, same day.
• 1:39:25
  Oh damn, that's funny. That's the same day.
• 1:39:29
  That's like some petty shit like you didn't marry.
• 1:39:31
  Oh yeah, fuck off. Yep, if I can't have her, you
• 1:39:35
  can't either. So.
• 1:39:37
  Uh, Terry calls in her friend, her cousins cousin from the
• 1:39:42
  joint or some shit like that. Yeah, who brings in his three
• 1:39:46
  friends and over to the bar and he didn't get the job done.
• 1:39:52
  No freaking homie Lamb. Just like what's up now, just
• 1:39:56
  like put the a Pew Pew right in front of him and everything and
• 1:40:03
  he gets arrested, sent to jail, sent to prison.
• 1:40:05
  He doesn't know anything that's going on.
• 1:40:07
  So when he shows up at Big Mama's house again and like, you
• 1:40:10
  know, I was like, doesn't know about faith and homie getting in
• 1:40:16
  this and all that stuff. I was like, what was going on?
• 1:40:18
  I was like, you'll find out later during dinner and like,
• 1:40:22
  wait, you're pregnant? Yeah.
• 1:40:25
  You had an affair with her? What?
• 1:40:30
  There's money. Yeah, exactly.
• 1:40:34
  I've been in the joy the whole time.
• 1:40:35
  I'm so glad I missed this part of this fucking movie.
• 1:40:40
  But yeah, it's like I love that because he bring a little boy,
• 1:40:46
  brings in all the family together and everything, and we
• 1:40:50
  love that. We love that.
• 1:40:51
  And then? What else?
• 1:40:58
  What else did we say? That's it.
• 1:40:59
  I think that's it. The the family dynamic was
• 1:41:03
  amazing. I loved it.
• 1:41:08
  Every like, just like I think the wood, just like the wood,
• 1:41:12
  the soundtrack, every song had a moment on there 'cause I know, I
• 1:41:18
  know, you cried at the very end for a song for Mama, 'cause I
• 1:41:21
  did too. You know, it's so when I hear
• 1:41:27
  that, I can't listen to that song anymore.
• 1:41:30
  Yeah, freaking song. Yeah.
• 1:41:33
  Well, not only that, but way. Too long.
• 1:41:36
  It was not that. It's when my mom died at her
• 1:41:41
  memorial. That was like the song she
• 1:41:44
  requested she wanted. Once she heard it, she's like,
• 1:41:48
  oh, I, you know, I want I want that to play it at my funeral.
• 1:41:51
  OK. So we honored her wishes.
• 1:41:55
  But now, 22 years later, still still fresh.
• 1:42:01
  So it's like, yeah, I can't listen to that song.
• 1:42:04
  And even though I'm a glutton for punishment, because anytime
• 1:42:10
  I do like, like a memory, I always put that song.
• 1:42:17
  But I put the piano version. I'm like, yeah, I can do the
• 1:42:22
  piano version. I can't do boys to men's
• 1:42:24
  version, you know? So I'm like, but yeah, but you
• 1:42:29
  know, I remember tearing up when I first saw that, you know, at
• 1:42:35
  17, you're like, ah, you know, that's sad.
• 1:42:39
  But I couldn't relate now if I watched it after I was 21.
• 1:42:47
  I can relate. And I'm like that, that movie,
• 1:42:54
  I'm like, I haven't watched it in in full.
• 1:42:58
  And I'd say about 15 years because I'm like, I, I can't.
• 1:43:05
  Yeah. But you know, it's a beautiful
• 1:43:10
  song. Don't get me wrong, it's a
• 1:43:11
  beautiful song, of course, but it's like, yeah, it's one of
• 1:43:15
  those songs that it reminds you of something, and it's a daily
• 1:43:20
  reminder because my mother's not here.
• 1:43:25
  Yeah. So like I said, 23 years later
• 1:43:31
  and now actually now 24, it was just 24 earlier this this month.
• 1:43:38
  But it's like, yeah, the I feel the same way They did, you know,
• 1:43:47
  there's things that after their mother passed away, she's not
• 1:43:51
  going to see Yo, my mom will doesn't know me as an adult.
• 1:44:00
  So it's like all of my milestones.
• 1:44:03
  Well, I guess a little bit of milestones, Yeah, she's not
• 1:44:08
  there for and she won't be there for.
• 1:44:10
  So it's, it's really, it's a really hard thing.
• 1:44:16
  And you know, I, I kind of get a little jealous when I see.
• 1:44:23
  I mean, I'm taking care of somebody's mother and she's 96,
• 1:44:29
  you know, and I'm like, you've had your mom your whole life,
• 1:44:34
  you know, and I know it's going to hurt when she passes because
• 1:44:36
  it's going to hurt me because I've grown quite fond of her.
• 1:44:39
  But I'm like, you got to have your mom for 70 plus years, you
• 1:44:46
  know? So but it, you know, the the
• 1:44:51
  soundtrack is totally 90s and I love it.
• 1:44:56
  Yeah, that's one thing. I love it.
• 1:45:02
  We love you, Menace. Everybody's in the chat saying
• 1:45:05
  it too. Give me a minute.
• 1:45:14
  It's OK. That's that's fine.
• 1:45:16
  OK, I bought a blank CDA blank cassette, and I recorded the
• 1:45:24
  song over and over and over and over again, Gave it to my mom
• 1:45:27
  for her Mother's Day. And she mocks me after.
• 1:45:32
  Yeah, every time she sees me. Oh, thank you, Miguel.
• 1:45:35
  I was like, here. Welcome on Mama, Mama, I'm like,
• 1:45:40
  really every time she sees me, like, hey, like, hey, Mama.
• 1:45:44
  I was like, you still remember that like, yeah, how could I
• 1:45:47
  not. Made me listen to that song over
• 1:45:49
  and over again. It could just like.
• 1:45:51
  So you build a whole cassette? Yeah.
• 1:45:55
  So that's a. Yes, so a cassette.
• 1:46:01
  Five hours, you know. Track A.
• 1:46:04
  Track B. Yeah.
• 1:46:07
  Front and back and just like it didn't stop towards the middle,
• 1:46:11
  towards the like towards the ending as the stop.
• 1:46:13
  And then I turn it around, it starts over again.
• 1:46:15
  And she thought it was going to be like a whole dedication of
• 1:46:18
  just Mother, Mother's Day songs. And like, you know, other than
• 1:46:22
  just one song. No, she kept hearing it over and
• 1:46:24
  over. It's like why?
• 1:46:29
  I'm like, and that's why I bought the cassette tape.
• 1:46:33
  And you're like, I loved it so much.
• 1:46:36
  I thought of you so much. I thought you would want it.
• 1:46:41
  So every time she sees me, hey, like what, Mama?
• 1:46:44
  I'm like, really? Even now.
• 1:46:47
  Even now. That's crazy.
• 1:46:49
  Like Mama because we. You're like, do you know the
• 1:46:53
  rest of the lyric? She does?
• 1:46:55
  No, you get through. It because you know I love you.
• 1:47:03
  Like, you know, Mama is like every time you see me, like you
• 1:47:06
  want to dance like no, Mama. And it wasn't just that song,
• 1:47:12
  obviously, but that song was the entire the entire freaking the
• 1:47:16
  basis of the movie. But the other songs on the
• 1:47:21
  soundtrack, we're not making love no more by Drew Hill raw
• 1:47:26
  relationship, tension and musical form.
• 1:47:28
  So basically the part where Vanessa Williams character, the
• 1:47:33
  entire movie right there with her and her husband, just like,
• 1:47:38
  you know, having tension, like not seeing eye to eye, wanting
• 1:47:42
  to go, him wanting to go back into the studio, him doing it
• 1:47:46
  anyways. Like, you know what?
• 1:47:46
  I'll need your fucking permission.
• 1:47:48
  I'm just gonna do it anyway. You have your law firm, blah,
• 1:47:50
  blah, blah, all that shit. But now you get all upset
• 1:47:54
  because he cheats on you with the cousin.
• 1:48:03
  I'm still going to talk about that.
• 1:48:05
  OK, talk about. It contribution from Babyface
• 1:48:09
  and other R&B heavyweights that capture the grown and sexy
• 1:48:12
  energy of the era. Babyface did.
• 1:48:14
  He just did. Babyface was that era of the 90s
• 1:48:19
  him and 80s obviously Guy. Yeah, the Babyface is like he
• 1:48:24
  like and that one song with milestone him, his brothers
• 1:48:30
  Casey and JoJo. Yeah, I said this before.
• 1:48:35
  It is like the song felt like they they like they needed to
• 1:48:43
  pay rent. So this was, you know, you
• 1:48:45
  better fucking thing and. The.
• 1:48:48
  Song is great but the video, the video is where you get Casey and
• 1:48:53
  JoJo just going off on each other is like.
• 1:48:56
  Yeah. And I was like one of them does,
• 1:48:59
  JoJo does it and then the other one I think is one of the baby
• 1:49:03
  faced brothers. Yeah.
• 1:49:05
  Where he just like, yes, brother, I got you.
• 1:49:07
  I got. You, yeah.
• 1:49:08
  And then Casey is more like they're from Jodeci, Casey and
• 1:49:12
  JoJo from Jodeci where Casey was just more like, you know, they
• 1:49:18
  were Jodeci was a band about a three man band about, you know,
• 1:49:23
  sexing and freaking you and all that support therefore.
• 1:49:27
  Two sets of brothers. I thought they were three.
• 1:49:31
  No, it's no. Casey and JoJo are brothers, and
• 1:49:35
  then Dalvin and Devante are brothers.
• 1:49:38
  Yeah. Devante, that's the last one I
• 1:49:40
  saw. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:49:42
  And they're about, you know, freaking you and all this stuff.
• 1:49:44
  They were backed in when the 90s as well with Shy and High 5 and
• 1:49:53
  who else? H Town.
• 1:49:57
  That was three people. Yeah, that was 3 people.
• 1:49:59
  And then like making love to the woman and like having babies and
• 1:50:04
  stuff. And then they move away from
• 1:50:06
  that and they do this song and they're like just us two close
• 1:50:10
  to me. You're like my mother, whatever
• 1:50:14
  that means. You're like my father, You're
• 1:50:18
  like my sister, You're like my brother.
• 1:50:20
  You're. Like my family, basically.
• 1:50:26
  Which I love. I've talked to SO.
• 1:50:28
  What this? Soundtrack actually their first
• 1:50:32
  album I think was their best album so.
• 1:50:37
  This soundtrack helped to mend the tradition of black family
• 1:50:39
  dramas paired with emotional, rich R&B albums, a formula that
• 1:50:42
  influenced films well into the 2000s.
• 1:50:48
  Yeah, we'll go more into the soundtrack later on.
• 1:50:50
  But these three songs were like, what?
• 1:50:53
  Like, made me love it more. And I said, let me go buy the
• 1:50:56
  CD, The CD. And that because like I said, I
• 1:50:59
  did it for like I didn't have ACD to cassette recorder.
• 1:51:03
  OK. I had a 2 cassette or the same
• 1:51:07
  song over and over again. And tells my brother and
• 1:51:14
  sisters, do you know what he did?
• 1:51:16
  Remember this? My mom?
• 1:51:17
  Like, I gotta tell them because it's funny.
• 1:51:24
  Yeah. And just like that, the place
• 1:51:26
  are empty. The stories have been told.
• 1:51:27
  And somebody's taking home leftovers wrapped in soil.
• 1:51:30
  Soul food reminds that the family isn't always perfect.
• 1:51:32
  But the division we share, the meals we got around and the love
• 1:51:35
  to survive the arguments, that's the legacy.
• 1:51:37
  That's the glue, that's the culture.
• 1:51:40
  So this Black History Month, revisit the films that feels
• 1:51:42
  like home, the ones that make you laugh, cry and call your
• 1:51:45
  people right after the Chris Roll.
• 1:51:48
  So keep those stories warm, keep the conversations going.
• 1:51:50
  And don't forget the past. Don't make groaning.
• 1:51:56
  So yeah. So that whole movie.
• 1:51:59
  Oh, before we forget Soul Food on DVD.
• 1:52:04
  Awesome. I had to get it all.
• 1:52:08
  We're all big about, you know, physical media now.
• 1:52:12
  Somebody was saying that they were watching What I Like About
• 1:52:15
  You on Netflix. The show's out on Netflix, but
• 1:52:20
  the show's theme song is not the same.
• 1:52:23
  OK. So if you want to shoot, listen
• 1:52:26
  to the show's real theme song. It's on DVD and the show's theme
• 1:52:31
  song on here has changed. So This is why you have to get
• 1:52:33
  Risco Media because it has the original stuff.
• 1:52:38
  So I recommend buying soul food. Building features include
• 1:52:44
  anamorphic widescreen, interactive menu, scene
• 1:52:47
  selection, director's commentary, which I will listen
• 1:52:49
  and come back next week about it.
• 1:52:52
  Original theatrical trailers, audio English 5.1 surround,
• 1:52:56
  English Dolby surround, Elijah's in the building, French Dolby
• 1:53:00
  surround. Subtitles, English and Spanish.
• 1:53:02
  Excerpts from the Soul Food cookbook.
• 1:53:04
  There's a cookbook. I'm definitely gonna.
• 1:53:14
  Oh, there's what? There's a cookbook.
• 1:53:17
  There's a recipe. There's a cookbook.
• 1:53:21
  There's a recipe book. Awesome forward from director of
• 1:53:27
  soul food. I can remember these Sunday
• 1:53:28
  dinners at my grandmother's house like it was yesterday.
• 1:53:31
  It was a tradition for my family and many black families I knew
• 1:53:33
  while growing up in Milwaukee during the 70s and 80s.
• 1:53:37
  Yeah, he goes on stuffed greet. The recipes are Stuffed greens
• 1:53:43
  by Vanessa Williams, crab cakers, crab cakes by Nia Long,
• 1:53:48
  Mama's Players, Louisiana Solomon croquettes by Irma P
• 1:53:53
  Hall, Mama Mom's collard greens by George Tillman Junior, the
• 1:53:58
  producer Jeffrey D Sam's Vanessa Williams husband apple pie,
• 1:54:08
  Brandon Hammond's The Boy sweet potato pie.
• 1:54:13
  This is after the fact though. This is like when they're older
• 1:54:16
  because soul food didn't come out on DVD back then, right?
• 1:54:22
  I think it came out maybe like in like 2000.
• 1:54:29
  Yeah, they're much older. So.
• 1:54:30
  They like brought out their stuff.
• 1:54:33
  So yes, get the DVD. Soul food is a it was a great
• 1:54:38
  buy. It was it was affordable.
• 1:54:41
  It was at my local video store. Oh, they still have those?
• 1:54:47
  No. Yeah, Charles in second.
• 1:54:52
  Oh, that's right. OK, The vintage store.
• 1:54:55
  OK there. It's a great find so check it
• 1:55:00
  out. I recommend it.
• 1:55:03
  I give it 10 DVDs out of 10. OK.
• 1:55:07
  Just because I love the movie already.
• 1:55:09
  Yeah. All right.
• 1:55:13
  You ready to go? Yeah.
• 1:55:15
  We laughed, we enjoyed the night, we cried together as
• 1:55:19
  always. So it was a fun time.
• 1:55:22
  So you ready to go? Yeah, we're.
• 1:55:23
  Good with you. Anything you want to say before
• 1:55:25
  we head out? Nope.
• 1:55:27
  Thanks for having me, Alex. Thank.
• 1:55:29
  You for being here for last night.
• 1:55:31
  We do appreciate you. Yeah.
• 1:55:33
  Everybody loves what you say. Everybody's here for you.
• 1:55:35
  You know that. Yeah.
• 1:55:38
  All right, all right. What do you think about Toy
• 1:55:41
  Story 5? The trailer.
• 1:55:43
  Oh my gosh, I was like, they are finally bringing it to like a
• 1:55:51
  modern age. You know, that it you know, it
• 1:55:56
  kind of reminds me of, you know, how we went from, you know,
• 1:56:01
  playing with toys and, you know, being, you know, and now
• 1:56:05
  everything is electronics. You know, they, you know, they
• 1:56:10
  start tablets, you know, for toddlers, you know, So it's
• 1:56:17
  like, oh, no. So when you posted it, I was
• 1:56:21
  like, oh, like it's getting like it's reached now.
• 1:56:28
  How we grew, you know, we grew up and even though a lot of
• 1:56:32
  there wasn't a lot of technology when we were, you know, teens
• 1:56:37
  to, you know, our early 20s. But then, you know, as we hit
• 1:56:42
  our mid 20s, technology just went and now, I mean, I'm like,
• 1:56:52
  I'm not, I don't want, like I didn't want the baby to be on my
• 1:56:59
  tablet all the time, you know, So I'm like, if we can color
• 1:57:02
  together or draw or play with her toys, I'm like, that's great
• 1:57:08
  because. But she knows how to work it
• 1:57:10
  'cause she'd be like, so like I, it's one of those things to
• 1:57:18
  where movie hit reality. Yeah.
• 1:57:24
  So I'm kind of excited to see it.
• 1:57:28
  I will say I I have to watch Toy Story 4 before 'cause I think I
• 1:57:34
  stopped. I think yeah, Toy Story 3 was
• 1:57:37
  the last one I saw. So I was like, I guess I gotta
• 1:57:40
  watch Toy Story more because, you know, we're gonna take her
• 1:57:45
  to go see Toy Story 5, so. Yeah, So like, I love every few
• 1:57:51
  years. It has to do with what's
• 1:57:53
  relevance today. Yeah.
• 1:57:55
  So Toy Story 3 was about, you know, abandonment.
• 1:57:59
  They were. They were like leaving and all
• 1:58:01
  this stuff. Yeah.
• 1:58:05
  Andy was going off to college, so, you know, I got to leave
• 1:58:09
  these toys behind and like, given to another kid.
• 1:58:12
  Got it. And there's like and the toys
• 1:58:14
  felt abandoned by Andy. Yeah, Andy.
• 1:58:18
  So they went off to field with other toys.
• 1:58:21
  We meet Ken, we meet Ken and Barbie there and of course all
• 1:58:24
  that stuff. Barbie was already there and we
• 1:58:28
  give it to Bonnie. And then Toy Story 4 was about,
• 1:58:35
  what are you just thinking that he belongs there anymore?
• 1:58:38
  He's an old, old toy. Yeah.
• 1:58:40
  Like, based on the the trailer. Yeah.
• 1:58:45
  The fact that, you know, like the Lily pads telling what?
• 1:58:48
  You're old. You're an old man.
• 1:58:50
  Yeah. You have a bald spot, too.
• 1:58:52
  Like what? So he he went off to feed with
• 1:58:58
  his, you know, his best friend, his soul mate, his toy mate and
• 1:59:06
  antiquing. He it was proud antiquing.
• 1:59:10
  He's an antique toy. Both.
• 1:59:13
  He was an antique toy as well. So he went off to.
• 1:59:15
  And told Buzz like you're head of the house now.
• 1:59:19
  It's. You're, it's, you're, it's,
• 1:59:21
  you're human, you know? And so Buzz decided I was like,
• 1:59:23
  alright, fine. So he goes into Toy Story 5
• 1:59:27
  where we see him interacting with Woody and you know, why is
• 1:59:33
  why is what he coming back for? Why is he trying to take over my
• 1:59:37
  place? You.
• 1:59:37
  Know yeah, take over me. Woody in the trailer, Woody has
• 1:59:43
  an ID and that Woody Buzz and ice and that had an idea
• 1:59:47
  bringing in his old the other toys, his old toys and everybody
• 1:59:55
  in there is like, yeah, all the other toys are like, oh, they're
• 2:00:00
  fighting again here we go. Who gets to be the head toy
• 2:00:04
  again? And we're doing this so it just
• 2:00:07
  feels like their dynamic is back and everything.
• 2:00:11
  So I I love, I love that that's coming out and yeah, but still
• 2:00:16
  at the same time, I hope this like.
• 2:00:19
  This movie does what number three does.
• 2:00:23
  Yeah. And, you know, give other kids
• 2:00:26
  toys that he wants belong to you or like, keep.
• 2:00:30
  Him as a collection, yeah. You know, or in four where it's
• 2:00:35
  like, oh, your your toys and antique, you got to sell it, You
• 2:00:38
  got to give it away. Yeah.
• 2:00:40
  Each store nowhere to this one. Like we got to get rid of the
• 2:00:43
  freaking iPads and stuff. Yeah.
• 2:00:46
  But like, not to be mean or anything, but you know, have
• 2:00:50
  toys, play with toys, not just run your iPad and have your
• 2:00:54
  friends be around. Like, oh, we're just, we're just
• 2:00:56
  hanging out. We're vibing, but we're playing
• 2:00:59
  in our own devices. Like no, come on, go outside, go
• 2:01:03
  experience outside. Go go outside until three.
• 2:01:06
  Like come on, go play with mud. Go give your siblings mud pies.
• 2:01:13
  Eat. That freaking comment will
• 2:01:18
  always have me. Oh my gosh, that was, I think
• 2:01:21
  that was like the best comment I ever heard, you know, But to me,
• 2:01:27
  I was like, it's it's such, it was such an older sister kind of
• 2:01:32
  thing. You know, you wanna, you don't
• 2:01:36
  wanna go against your older sister, but then you're like,
• 2:01:38
  why do I gotta eat this man? You know he's.
• 2:01:42
  A younger sister, and she had brothers.
• 2:01:45
  Yeah. So ran for her life after that.
• 2:01:49
  Grasshoppers in there. So, like, I learned how to fight
• 2:01:54
  because of them. Oh, my God.
• 2:01:56
  OK, yeah, I said, you know, that's one reason I had her part
• 2:02:02
  at the arcade, because they actually played and had fun.
• 2:02:04
  Exactly. Yeah, exactly.
• 2:02:06
  That's great. Yeah, go.
• 2:02:07
  Out there, have fun, get away from the tech, get all that
• 2:02:10
  stuff. That's why I'm buying the the
• 2:02:13
  physical stuff. Yeah, I want.
• 2:02:14
  To just. I want to put it in my
• 2:02:16
  collection. Yeah, that was like, you know,
• 2:02:18
  my niece, my niece and nephews that are older, you know, they
• 2:02:25
  they love playing video games. But, you know, we were like, you
• 2:02:27
  know what, you guys are going to go outside.
• 2:02:30
  So, you know, they play outside. So now my oldest niece, she has,
• 2:02:36
  you know, she has the baby and, you know, she's trying to make
• 2:02:39
  sure that she has toys. It's not electronics, which is,
• 2:02:44
  you know, great. And there are all kinds of toys,
• 2:02:48
  you know, so she'll have, you know, little kids toys.
• 2:02:53
  She'll have dolls she loves, you know, Disney, so she'll have
• 2:02:56
  some Disney toys. So it's like, yes, keep toys,
• 2:03:01
  you know, and yes, she pulls every single one of them out of
• 2:03:05
  her toy bin. But we're like, OK, let's clean
• 2:03:07
  up. And she'll clean up all her
• 2:03:08
  toys. So it's like, yes, that's that's
• 2:03:11
  what every kid needs, you know, no matter the age, yes,
• 2:03:18
  technology is coming to be, you know, more.
• 2:03:21
  But you're like, let them be kids, you know, all of you to
• 2:03:25
  play with. Them also, yeah.
• 2:03:29
  Yeah. It is.
• 2:03:33
  So, yeah. You say you're gonna watch it
• 2:03:36
  with the kids. Yeah, that's great.
• 2:03:37
  Me too. I'm gonna go watch it.
• 2:03:38
  We're gonna go watch it. We're gonna like come back the
• 2:03:41
  next week, have talk about it. Yeah.
• 2:03:46
  Because you know, it's Toy Story is a fun movie like it went.
• 2:03:50
  It was fun back when it came out, the first one because you
• 2:03:53
  know kid like toys are around, they're alive.
• 2:03:57
  Or Sid with his again. He's crazy.
• 2:04:02
  Break your toys. Like if you break your toys,
• 2:04:04
  things will happen. Bad things will happen to you.
• 2:04:09
  So yeah, that's going to be fun to do.
• 2:04:12
  All right, now we're headed out. Are you ready?
• 2:04:15
  Yes. OK.
• 2:04:18
  Thank you. Big shout out to Menace for
• 2:04:21
  jumping in and because Greg's Wi-Fi.
• 2:04:25
  Decided. To bail out on us and stuff.
• 2:04:28
  So thank you for the last minute and you know, coming in the last
• 2:04:31
  minute and like 45 minutes later I introduced you to the show.
• 2:04:33
  That's OK. And just like that, another
• 2:04:40
  episode is in the book, another night where the conversation
• 2:04:42
  somehow felt like a group chat, a living room hang and a time
• 2:04:45
  machine all at once. We dug into the pod decks.
• 2:04:47
  We talked about the hobbies and faces we were deep into, the
• 2:04:50
  ones that weren't just interest, they were entire eras of our
• 2:04:53
  personality. We reacted to the Toy Story 5
• 2:04:56
  trailer and felt that familiar wave of weight.
• 2:04:59
  How are we just grown and still emotional about toys?
• 2:05:03
  Because I'm never letting them go.
• 2:05:07
  Yeah, we reminisce about, like, what life would look like before
• 2:05:11
  phones and tech took over everything.
• 2:05:13
  When boredom meant going outside, figuring it out or
• 2:05:15
  accidentally discovering your next obsession, we stepped back
• 2:05:19
  into the ring with, no, we didn't hold on.
• 2:05:22
  And for Black History Month, we closed the night with soul food.
• 2:05:25
  The film, the theme, the family conversation still feel real
• 2:05:28
  today. And the soundtrack that didn't
• 2:05:30
  just support the movie, it became a part of the memory of
• 2:05:33
  that era. But before we go, we have to
• 2:05:36
  shout out the community again because y'all showed up heavy
• 2:05:40
  this week for the pod deck questions, the comments, the
• 2:05:44
  stories, the deep dive into old hobbies and forgotten phases.
• 2:05:46
  And as we're literally recording this outro, people are still
• 2:05:49
  responding. Let me go back.
• 2:05:55
  It is now at 3032 view top five comfort shows you were watching.
• 2:06:03
  People are still responding. I'm still you guys are amazing.
• 2:06:09
  That's the third place energy right there.
• 2:06:11
  Conversation doesn't end when the episode does.
• 2:06:14
  It just keeps going. Next episode, Menace will be
• 2:06:19
  back and we're making a quick stop on the Road to WrestleMania
• 2:06:24
  going to the sign. To.
• 2:06:30
  The sign with our Elimination Chamber predictions.
• 2:06:32
  Who's surviving, who's shocking us, and what paths are starting
• 2:06:35
  to take shape? Then next Saturday we're jumping
• 2:06:38
  right back into our arcade games to big screen journey with
• 2:06:41
  Mortal Kombat. I'm going to go have to buy the
• 2:06:44
  real movie. Yeah.
• 2:06:47
  You know what? No, we're not doing Mortal
• 2:06:49
  Kombat. I'm sorry, grief fighter.
• 2:06:51
  Right. Grief Fighter.
• 2:06:52
  Yes, we're jumping right back into Street Fighter.
• 2:06:55
  We're supposed to do it today, but rigging Wi-Fi?
• 2:06:59
  We got to fix that. All right, we're going to, we're
• 2:07:03
  going to, we're going to go jump into Street Fighter and pair it
• 2:07:06
  with Brown Sugar from 2002. Because sometimes the best
• 2:07:09
  conversations live at the intersection of combat culture,
• 2:07:12
  music, and memory. So pull up next week, pull up,
• 2:07:17
  pull up. Same crew, same energy, same 3rd
• 2:07:20
  place. But before we really go menace.
• 2:07:25
  Yes. Take a breath with me, OK?
• 2:07:29
  Do whatever today handed you. Strive.
• 2:07:31
  Noise wins losses. You don't have to carry all of
• 2:07:34
  it into tomorrow. Thank you for spending this time
• 2:07:37
  here in my third place, not home.
• 2:07:40
  Eila, you're home. We're all about home.
• 2:07:45
  But for those of you listening to us, thank you for spending
• 2:07:47
  this time here in my third place, not home, not work.
• 2:07:51
  Just a space where we show up as ourselves, remember who we are
• 2:07:53
  and figure out who we're becoming.
• 2:07:56
  Take care of each other. Take care of yourself.
• 2:07:59
  This is M3 podcast for community creativity in a place where we
• 2:08:02
  leave the light on. Always come together and let's
• 2:08:05
  thank you for stopping in and we'll catch you on the road.
