• 5:48
  Speaker 5: But yeah, we should probably get to the news then.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Okay, Donkey Star Trek News.
• 5:58
  Speaker 5: All right, so we're gonna start with the uh bit
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: of sad news for came out pretty real late this
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: week and we're so we're just hearing about it. But
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: according to Yahoo News, Tony Todd a kern And has
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: passed away. He was sixty nine years old. He was
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: also known as probably more more famously known as Candyman.
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: The Candyman. Yeah. I don't know if you ever saw that.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: I you know, I when I mentioned the name Tony
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: Todd to my wife, she didn't know the name. And
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: when I said Kerrn, she was like, when I said
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: candy Man, She's like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, she's a
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: big horror film fan.
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: So yeah, yeah, me too. So uh yeah, Candy Man
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: was a great film. He appeared in over two hundred
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: and forty films and TV shows he does oh wow, yeah,
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: so it's he's got quite the career. A lot of
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: voiceover work too, hit a very unique voice. Yes, yeah,
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: so a lot of voiceover work. But he really loved
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: Star Trek. He loved being part of the community. I
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: believe he did go to a few conventions from time
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: to time when he could.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: Well, he probably you know, was you know, had a
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: following from both Star Trek and Horror, so I would imagine.
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's even our show title this week.
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: It's called the Pain is Most Exquisite or something like that.
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: That's a line from Candy Man.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Okay, that's why it's that.
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: Also fits with what happened on the show. So that's
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: why I named the show that.
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but you know, he said Star Trek in an interview,
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: he said Star Trek was the first show that gave
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: him access to the fan world, and he's very grateful
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: to them for that. Oh yeah, he he you know,
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: he did the cling on makeup and prosidic, so he
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: was all in, came back several times, also known as
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: Old Jake. Yes, yeah, a very tear drinking episode.
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: So that yeah, which was like the inner light of
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: Deep Space nine. It was or that was a very
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: good episode. It's it's the first episode. In fact, it's
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: the first thing I thought of when I when I
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: heard he pasted, you know, most enormous Kern. Some people
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: remember him as a herosion, the herosion, yes, yeah, but
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: playing the older Jake Cisco that that episode, uh the
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: visitor from Deep Face nine when when Captain Cisco supposedly
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: dies and then comes back like a half a dozen
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: times throughout Jake's life. Yeah, yeah, that was a that
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: was a really good episode.
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it was a very good episode. So yeah. So
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: unfortunately Tony Todd has passed away, so I wanted to
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: share that now also making a kind of hard pivot
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: to other stuff. But we did get some interesting news
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: this week that came out and we're learning more about
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: Jerry Ryan apparently was pitched a seven of nine show. Uh,
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: this is coming to us from trekmovie dot com. And
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: she says that they had pitched her a seven of
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: nine show, not legacy, so it would not be legacy
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: at all, it would be just seven of nine. Uh
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: what was his name, John de Arco, He played Hugh.
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: He said, he said it would be a little bit
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: more Borg focused show because they love the Borg and
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: the new Trek.
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: Well, yeah, it's like I said, well, season one of
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: Picard was about the Borg, but season two was about wait,
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: the Borg.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: That's well, season three was about oh yeah, the Borg.
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: Now we're gonna make a Borg show. Yeah, and I.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Love the Borg. I mean I would have wanted to out.
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: Of this, you know. Yeah, you know, I love Hamburgers,
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: but I don't want Hamburgers every day, you know, right right? Yeah?
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: So uh so, yeah, so she politely turned them down.
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: She says, you know, she knows the fans want legacy,
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: and that's what she wants to do. Raffie herself Michelle
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: Hurd also went on to say, yeah, we want legacy.
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: Let's do legacy. So apparently everyone knows about this, so we'll.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: I'm just confused.
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's it's I mean, we're beating a dead
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: horse here, I understand, but why, I know, why don't
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: they get this? I mean, you know, does somebody need
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: to kidnap Jonathan Frakes and just hold him hostage until
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: they make this.
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: If only there was a basement in Michigan that we
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: could put him in for a while.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. Oh god, uh uh so.
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know if we if we're gonna get Legacy.
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: I did see in our own Facebook group there was
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: the conspiracy theory that, you know, maybe they're waiting for
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: Terry Mentalis to finish the Vision show for Marvel that
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: then he could come back and do Legacy after that.
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: At that point, it's going to be a few years,
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: So I don't know if that's really a thing. You know,
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: they haven't tarn a Vision yet. There's just in pre
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: production of it. They got to shoot it, edit it,
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: get it out there, right.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: I mean, you can be involved in two things at once,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: and right, Terry Mettallas it was great for it's great
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: for Star Trek. He's not the only player in this game. Right.
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: A lot of people want him on board because of
• 11:32
  Speaker 5: how much they love Picard season three, So I get
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: wanting him to helm this ship. Right, Sure, But you're right,
• 11:41
  Speaker 5: there's you can find other people to run the show,
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: the writers, Yeah, the writers that you can get a
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: different showrunner. But he you know, could be the overall
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: producer that kind of oversees it. So at least he
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: would you know, he can still do that while while
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: doing vision that's not really a thing, you know.
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: And there's some talent out there. There's some Star Trek
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: actor talent out there, Belana, Tom Parris, Will Reker.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: All those actors are accomplished directors and writers and storytellers
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: and showrunners.
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: So LeVar Burton was pretty well, yeah, you know, I
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: think you would be fantastic for this. So I mean,
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: so let's get a.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: Dream team together. And you know, they've got a chance.
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: I almost had Paramount has a chance, but who the
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: hell knows who's going to be actually owning this stuff
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: in a year. But they've got a chance. They could
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: put together a dream team and and it's something that
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: they could, they could.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, it was birthed with Discovery, this this new
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: age of Star Trek and and because because we're so
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: lucky to have this new age of Star Trek is
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: you know, from the early two thousands until twenty seventeen,
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: we didn't.
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: Have anything, and and now we've got this you know,
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: resurgence of interest. Why can't they you know, just see
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: what they've got going. I mean, there's got to be
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: a ton of money that can Why.
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: Can we have nice things?
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Why can't we have nice things?
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: Everybody wants legacy. Everybody's talking about legacy, and it's not
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: just you.
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: Know, it's it's not just us. Like if you go
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: and if you go and look at any paramount posting
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: of like Academy or the Section thirty one, it's just
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: filled with give us legacy, give us legacy.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah. No, Jerry Ryan said, I want to do legacy.
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah. It comes up at all the conventions, like that's
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: what people want. So I don't I don't know.
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, Well maybe I'll hear something at the comic con.
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah, maybe I'll get some sort of exclusive sure, sure, sure,
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: why not?
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: Why not?
• 13:50
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: And then we're also learning a little bit more about
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: Section thirty one the show. This is coming out from.
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: There was a panel during the New York Comic Con
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: and they're just now kind of writing about it, So
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: we're learning a little bit more about it. And basically
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: what we have learned is that the story of Section
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: thirty one the movie is going to focus around Georgio
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: and some of her past acts and needing to rectify
• 14:22
  Speaker 5: those acts. So okay, so that like this is your
• 14:29
  Speaker 5: life kind of thing.
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but that also implies if she has to rectify
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: those actses, this is going to take place in the
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: mere universe.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: I wasn't talking about unless.
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: They're talking about crap she did since she got to
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: the prime.
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: Universe, right, and they weren't clear on any distinction of
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: that way, So we don't really know either way.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: It's a Discovery timeline, So yeah, nobody cares. Right.
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: Some of the characters she will have past relationships with
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: of some sort, so they're not going to be all
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: just new to her, but they'll be new to us
• 15:04
  Speaker 5: as the audience. And then so I don't I don't know, man.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna watch it.
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: Yeah for the show.
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, we're gonna watch it.
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: We're gonna watch it, and hopefully I'm hoping it's good.
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: I'll say that I want it to be good, but
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: I am holding my breath very much. So yes. And
• 15:28
  Speaker 5: then our last news story I kind of just added
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: in this last minute, but I will put it in
• 15:33
  Speaker 5: the show notes for those of you who might be
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: interested in this. But according to military dot Com, paramount
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: just doubled its military discount for Veterans Day ooohoo. Yeah,
• 15:46
  Speaker 5: so you know, they were offering twenty five percent off
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: a paramount plus subscription to military members and they are
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: now offering a fifty percent off military or subscription. Oh wow,
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: as long as you apply by November eleventh. So being
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: that it's the tenth today, you got to act quick.
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: I will share that on some of my uh some
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: of my military Facebook groups.
• 16:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah. So the way it works is if you are
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: a new member, you go to their your sheer ID page.
• 16:20
  Speaker 5: I'm not sure what that is. Imagine you you would know, Scott.
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Like, I'm not familiar with sheer id, but it's
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: there's a bunch of different companies that do that do
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: verifications to prove to like, if you're going to do this,
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: you can go to a company, you can go to
• 16:35

• 17:34
  Speaker 5: And our main topic tonight is Star Trek Lower Decks
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: Season five is episode four, if I remember correctly, Yes, yeah,
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: A fell wall to Farms was the name of the episode.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: I did say, like quick reaction that it was a
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: fell wall to arms. No, it's farms.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: Yes, Oh did you say arms?
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: I did say arms. Yeah that's great. Yeah, but yeah,
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: so it's a it was a fun episode. Trying to
• 18:08
  Speaker 5: pull up the h the little slides right now, but
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: it is fighting me. Yeah, do you want to kind
• 18:15
  Speaker 5: of recap the episode?
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah? The tag is uh doctor Miglemo is that his name?
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: I can't remember his name.
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: Okay, the bird, the bird psychiatrist cooks up some hot
• 18:28
  Speaker 4: dishes and Mariner.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Prefers hers serve cold.
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: So basically, there are three diplomats from doctor Miglemo's home world,
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: three feathered people that come on board and there everybody
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: apparently his entire planet is is like food based, Like
• 18:45
  Speaker 4: that's that's why they develop warp drive is so they
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: could seek out new dishes. So it's all about, Yeah,
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: it's it's all about It's all about the food for them.
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: So they come on board and uh, some some chaos
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: and os, and then the the beat, the really the
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: c story or the A story is, uh, Mariner goes
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: to visit uh Maha, which is the Klingon that she
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: met in last season's episode nine, Uh the Inner fight, Right,
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: So she goes to visit him and he has lost
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: the captaincy of his ship and Mariner is there on
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: a separate starfleet mission and decides to help him.
• 19:29
  Speaker 5: So, yeah, so you had you had a couple of
• 19:32
  Speaker 5: different things going on. It was that.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: I really liked the episode. I thought it was great.
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: I thought it had some I thought it had some
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: own like the jokes are usually callback based, but I
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: thought the jokes in this were not only were the
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: see there were some callback based jokes, but they were
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: lower decks. Has gone on so long now that they're
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: calling back to their own episodes, which I think says
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: something about their longevity. But I thought some of the
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: joke my favorite, my favorite joke in the whole play
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: in the whole thing was, uh, when Mariner met MoG's
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: girlfriend and she like, you know, what are you doing?
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: Fright nize with assuming she walks off, Marenck goes, well,
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: crawled up her boom window. Yeah, I gotta almost spitt
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: you know.
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: You know who that was too? Who was a voice
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: and the girlfriend? Uh no Mary, I'm always gonna mispronounce
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: her last name like Chayfu or something like that. She
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: was the the lady kling On in Discovery then the
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: first like the season.
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah so that was her kay Laara?
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, so that's cool to be a cling on again. Yeah, yeah,
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: there she is, there's withfore.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Window.
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I love Klingon. Yeah, that's great. A Wolf does
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: ask Uh was this the first episode to not have
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: a regular opening, Yeah, I feel like they've done other
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: cold open episodes before.
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: Yes, they I've read on the internet there was another
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: episode that did, but I really really I noticed that
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: it was a different cold open.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I really liked it. I liked it too.
• 21:24
  Speaker 4: Sometimes sometimes a cold open like can be a little
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: bit harsh, especially if it's a sort of a zany
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: cold open, if it's if the background is sort of
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: like somber and this, I thought it really.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: Really fit the flow of the episode, and so I'm
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: glad they made that choice.
• 21:45
  Speaker 5: I liked Boimler's little weird mustache that he's got going.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: He's so desertly trying to grow facial air.
• 21:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and it's just it's not working, buddy.
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: You know, you think in the twenty fourth century they'd
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: have some sort of you know, just for men type
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: of follicle, you know, growth enhancement.
• 22:09
  Speaker 5: I feel like, uh, this has been answered by Gene
• 22:12
  Speaker 5: Roddenberry because they were looking at originally getting a wig
• 22:17
  Speaker 5: for Picard. Oh yeah, yeah, and you know, famously the
• 22:20
  Speaker 5: response was no, in the twenty fourth century, just won't matter.
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: Oh okay, yeah, yeah, doesn't matter how many little, uh
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: little fur hairs he has on his little face.
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: So yeah, so that was the doctor I have the
• 22:36
  Speaker 5: slide up of him right now, and uh, this guy
• 22:39
  Speaker 5: always cracks me up, so I'm glad that we had
• 22:41
  Speaker 5: an episode with him.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and the Captain was about to come on glues.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: She's like, uh, you better take over because I'm about
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: to say something stupid.
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, I'm about to make a diplomatic crisis year.
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: Because those those diplomats they so reminded me of betazoid ambassadors.
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, just really tough to deal with. But apparently
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: like they had lost their their sense of taste.
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that was the whole That was the whole point
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: why they were being such jerks is because they're food critics,
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: and I guess you know, food critics are like, you know,
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: they're the ambassadors, they're the high falutin of their society,
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: and they had lost their taste and they were trying
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: to Yeah, they're trying to cover that fact up by
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: just saying everything they taste is disgusting and and and
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: the Sorita's crew sort of kind of figures that out,
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: and at the end they serve them a dish that's
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: made out of manure, and and they're like, yeah, we.
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: Can't you know, this is uh, we can't taste anything or.
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: This is delicious or what.
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: Oh, they're they're back in their home world and they're
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: they're finally they're finally being served some quote unquote good
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: food and they eat it and they're like, oh, this
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: is delicious and they're like, ha, we got you because
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: it's actually manure.
• 23:53
  Speaker 5: I can't believe that's how they get them.
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: That's that's kind of gross. But yeah, yeah, and then
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: so how how did how did the A story end?
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: So they had to go like to their local Klingon council,
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: right and they had to go through some sort of
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: like pain trial.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: Yep, we brought we get We got to see the
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: pain sticks again.
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we got to see the pain That was great.
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: And the what the thing I loved the most about
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: the scene when they're going through the pain sticks is
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: if you freeze frame and look at the faces of everyone,
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: especially Mariner as they're getting shocked, it's a hilarious.
• 24:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah yeah I love that. Yeah, yeah, we got Blomeler
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: and getting shocked at least that paramount released. Yeah, it's great.
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: It was great. And then like they use their their starfleet,
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: no how of like if we all jump on each other,
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: we can spread the voltage between us.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: All right, I'm not an electrical engineer. I'll have to
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: look this up.
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: But each one of those painsticks at its highest setting,
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: which is really meant to kill you, it's thirty thousand volts.
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: And Boimler says, well, if we all get on the
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: back of what's his face's brother, it'll spread out the
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: volts evenly and we won't die. So I guess the
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: next time you're being stuck with thirty thousand volts, uh,
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: jump on them.
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: You know, my gut is that's not accurate.
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: I don't know are there any are there any electricians
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: or electrical engineers.
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: In the that would know? Yeah? That right, it's just
• 25:29
  Speaker 5: not going to work. I feel like if you have
• 25:31
  Speaker 5: rubber shoes that helps because you know, yeah maybe yeah,
• 25:35
  Speaker 5: but who knows. Yeah, but you have to stand still
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: because like the minute you lift your foot to walk,
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: you're right that circuit.
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: So right, yeah, let's talk a little bit about Boimler
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: and his new obsession would like cling on culture. Like, yeah,
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: he was not acting really Boimler e in this episode
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: because he was like really digging all the violence, and
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: at one point.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: He got thrown across the bar and he's like, I
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: just got thrown by a click.
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: Uh you know, he's getting his butt kicked. Yeah, but
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: he's loved every minute of it. My favorite part was
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: towards the end where they have to capture that ginormous
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: targ and and Boibler just like I got this, and
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: they're like no, and he just jumps on the targ
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: doesn't move it at all, and he just turns.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: Around and goes yay. I I thought that was a
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: great buttlemit.
• 26:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, And it was because, uh something along
• 26:36
  Speaker 5: the last episode he had been in such danger. Now
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: he's learning to love it or he felt like he
• 26:41
  Speaker 5: was tougher than he thought he was, so right, that's
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: why he was more.
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: So he's enjoying this.
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, which is cool. That's a good character development
• 26:51
  Speaker 5: for him, and I hope they continue it throughout the season.
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: So I guess it's a major character development from an
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: episode that was last week that I completely forgot about.
• 26:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: I don't pay attention to these shows obviously.
• 27:05
  Speaker 5: Right right. I thought it was cool too that the
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: so the whole deal was that the the Klingon captain
• 27:14
  Speaker 5: was kicked out of the military and was no longer
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: a captain and so he was running his farm. But
• 27:20
  Speaker 5: at the end of this he's given a commission and
• 27:23
  Speaker 5: becomes a captain again and ultimately decides to have his
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: own ship with him and his brother and the giant
• 27:30
  Speaker 5: targ Yes. Yeah, so, and it's like a small ship, right,
• 27:34
  Speaker 5: it's like like basically a.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: It's like a shuttle craft and shuttle craft.
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah. So it's just the two of them in the
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: targ yep yeah.
• 27:44
  Speaker 4: So, but yeah, happy, I need now the the Klingons
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: from the council.
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: What did I read? You know? That brings up a.
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: Funny point too, Like I always check out the IMDb.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: Of these episodes.
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: Uh yeah, yeah, a couple of days after the air,
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: because the way the IMDb gets there trivia from is
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: it they're they're all users submitted and and I've submitted
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: some trivia, some some trivia that.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: Have been accepted on a few things.
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: All the trivia, almost all the trivia for this episode,
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: it's all uh translations of all the Klingon words. Oh
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: like this means that, and that means this. It's almost
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: none of it is like what actually happened in the episode.
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: But in season one, episode two envoy Boimler is assigned
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: to to escort a Klingon envoy. Mariner joins him and
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: kas En sues. Korn is the Klingon envoy they escort.
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: Mm hmm, so so that's Korn is the.
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: Let me look up the U.
• 28:47
  Speaker 5: I mean, Kor was one of my favorite nineties bands.
• 28:49
  Speaker 4: But that was one of the Klingons in the episode, right,
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: so it calls back to uh yeah, Coren was the
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: the Klingon in this episode that was the son of
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: the of the Council.
• 29:15
  Speaker 5: Okay, okay, that's that's so it's.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: A call back to a season one episode.
• 29:19
  Speaker 5: Okay, okay that they didn't realize.
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, because Marin is like, hey, what's up. But you know,
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: we you know, we haven't seen each.
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: Other in a while.
• 29:26
  Speaker 4: And yeah, so so they're starting to call back their
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: own episodes, which.
• 29:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah, their own history. Yeah that's cool. Yeah. And then, uh,
• 29:39
  Speaker 5: you know, we didn't really get a lot of ten
• 29:41
  Speaker 5: D or Rutherford really, I mean they were there.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: Elen wasn't even in this episode.
• 29:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, that's true. I guess. Yeah. I really thought
• 29:52
  Speaker 5: what that cooled open? I thought, oh man, they're gonna
• 29:54
  Speaker 5: do It's just a completely different episode in the final season.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: But right, who was leg Nag in this episode? Do
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: you know?
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: L E G n O n And the only reason
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: why I ask is because I was looking up the
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: cast list and there's a leg Nog played by Sam
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: Whitworer and Sam Whitweer if if we remember he uh
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: he does the voice.
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: Of Darth Maul. Oh, yeah, that that's Sam Whitworer. He
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: was also in Smallville.
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: He's the live he does a voice and live action
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: of the Oh that Star Wars video game.
• 30:34
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, the Apprentice or something like that.
• 30:37
  Speaker 4: It's something like I own it now. I'm having a
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: hard time recalling this morning. I'm not a big video
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: game kicked in yet Force Unleashed.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: Okay, so yeah, he's kind of big in the sci
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: fi nerd world.
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah. So, but it sounds like you liked the episode
• 30:58
  Speaker 5: though I did.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: I thought it was good. I liked all the jokes.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: I thought it was a funny. It was to me,
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: this was the funniest episode all season.
• 31:10
  Speaker 5: So I put in our Facebook group with people, you know,
• 31:12
  Speaker 5: people's reaction to the episode, James said, excellent, through and
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: through love. The last cold open episode centered on Peanut Hamper,
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: and this one makes me even more upset that there
• 31:24
  Speaker 5: won't be any more lower decks, at least not for
• 31:26
  Speaker 5: a while. Hoping he gets picked up like Prodigy did
• 31:30
  Speaker 5: on Netflix or somewhere else.
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I wouldn't count on it.
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's kind of my thoughts.
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: And there's the reason I don't think it's gonna happen
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: is because this canceling seems deliberate.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't seem.
• 31:49
  Speaker 4: Like the ratings just fell off and they run out
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: of ideas. I think it's more of a we've done
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: five seasons, this is what we're planning, and maybe they
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: got something more in store for us next year the
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: year after.
• 32:01
  Speaker 5: So oh see, I feel like it's like, well, we've
• 32:04
  Speaker 5: done five seasons. We'd have to re up their contracts
• 32:06
  Speaker 5: quite a bit. We don't want to make the show
• 32:08
  Speaker 5: cost way much, you know, so much more to keep going.
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: So yeah, and that could be too, That could be too.
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: But I think this is a different situation than Prodigy.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so not a lot.
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: Of people watch Prodigy enough did that they wanted to,
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: you know, finish the second season, right, I'm still I'm
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: still in the middle of that that that watch.
• 32:27
  Speaker 5: So okay, yeah, no, I gave up.
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: So okay, yeah.
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: I you know, it's one of one hundred things that
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: I quote unquote need to watch, so.
• 32:40
  Speaker 5: Right right, yeah, it well says yeah, not Netflix since
• 32:43
  Speaker 5: they're not doing season three or Prodigy. Yeah that's true.
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: That did come out that they're not going to do
• 32:47
  Speaker 5: season three. So but yeah, uh, you know, we got
• 32:53
  Speaker 5: another episode next week, and so I guess when we
• 32:56
  Speaker 5: come back, not next week, but the week after, we'll
• 33:00
  Speaker 5: review two episodes.
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: So yeah, and we'll do uh yeah, that's gonna be
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: a big, big show because I'll be back from Comic
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: Con and yeah, and Dan will be back.
• 33:11
  Speaker 5: Yeah. So but yeah, so that's that's the episode.
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. I have a I have a suggestion. What's that.
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: I don't know if we want to do that after
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: the Oh we just.
• 33:28
  Speaker 5: Got a chat that says a pretty great thing. I
• 33:30
  Speaker 5: think they're allergic to this time period. Give me a
• 33:32
  Speaker 5: lower decks and legacy any day.
• 33:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I agree, I agree, Yeah.
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, anyways, I have a recommendation. Sure, So I'm I.
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: I started getting into audiobooks a little bit. Oh yeah,
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: and I started listening to the Picard prequels. Oh okay,
• 33:57
  Speaker 4: and I I accidentally want I accidentally listen to h
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: book two of I think it's book two of five
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: called The Dark Veil, and then I just started listening
• 34:08
  Speaker 4: to book one.
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: So there's a.
• 34:10
  Speaker 4: Series of Star Trek Picard books. There's The Last Best
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: Hope that's the first one, The Dark Veil, Rogue Elements,
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: Second Self, and Firewall, and book one basically takes place
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: at the beginning when they when the Romulans find out
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: that their sun is going to go nova, and it's
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: it's all about Picard forming a task force to do
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: something about it, and it it it's the genesis of
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: the Synths. And I'm about halfway through that one right now.
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: I already read, or I already listened to The Dark Veil,
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: which takes place several years later, so but it gets
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: more into The Dark Veil gets more into the romulans
• 35:01
  Speaker 4: distaste for UH synthetic life forms. So as I as
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: I finish each book, I'm gonna do I'm gonna finish
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: the Last Best Hope and then I'll.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: Do a review of it.
• 35:12
  Speaker 5: Okay, great, so great, I'm.
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: Gonna I'm gonna listen to all five and so far
• 35:16
  Speaker 4: there it's really good. Like I said, I'm about halfway
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: through the first book. It's it's well written, good storyline,
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: so I look forward to finishing it.
• 35:24
  Speaker 5: Nice. Well, let's get to uh, listener feedback, listener feedback.
• 35:35
  Speaker 5: All right, so we got Chasbiz waiting. Uh so let
• 35:39
  Speaker 5: me pull him in, and Chas Biss is.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: In the dark looking like Chasbiz. That's right, that's right
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: with the tractor beam.
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, well that's not a tractor beam, that's
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: the beaming up. So I guess you're right right sucking
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: me in.
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: So what did you think of the episode?
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: I love the cold open. It's pretty cool.
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: I like the music to it, and it was like, oh,
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: it's kind of like a movie and everything in the
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: way it starts, and then the episode itself, and I like,
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: you know, it was all right some parts.
• 36:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, what was your favorite part?
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: I like the pain six, okay, because that always costs
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: me up, you know, just this whole ceremony of getting
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: shocked to the end, So yeah, kind of stupid, but it.
• 36:31
  Speaker 5: Was something you were not that enthusiastic about.
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: I don't know, I'd say the b storyline. Maybe the
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: bird the bird snobs, yeah, because you know, birds aren't real.
• 36:44
  Speaker 5: So true, that's true.
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: I don't know who those things were, so.
• 36:49
  Speaker 5: It's the Baganda, the propaganda of the birds.
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: Yes, I want to see them attempt to do those
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: kind of characters in.
• 36:55
  Speaker 5: Live action, Oh my god.
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: They Yeah, I'm sure.
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: I'm sure, and it probably wouldn't be for the whole episode.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: Like I, I can understand if they just did like
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: a cameo.
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: You know, they have to go to hobby lobby and
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: get a bunch of feathers, and.
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: I would want them to do it. I want them
• 37:15
  Speaker 5: to do it in that really bad enterprise c G. I.
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: Oh no, yeah, the.
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that doesn't look all right, you.
• 37:29
  Speaker 5: Know, but oh it will ask god, is that a
• 37:34
  Speaker 5: featured trick shirt of the week that you're wearing.
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: Yes, it is Starfleet Academy.
• 37:40
  Speaker 5: Nice, he's getting ready for the show, that's right. Yeah,
• 37:44
  Speaker 5: that's right.
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: Even though you don't like Paul g Imani, which is weird.
• 37:48
  Speaker 5: That's right, you know.
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't like movies are just sideways.
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: Just no, just I've seen Spider Man two.
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: But you're a big fan of horrible movie of his.
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: Spider Red.
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: Hey, Spider Red two is a good film.
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I like she was. Yeah, I like she Hawk.
• 38:13
  Speaker 5: Why she's gonna be in it?
• 38:15
  Speaker 4: Oh that's right, Yeah, that's right. Now I'm excited about that.
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: I liked and I like she Hawk, and I liked
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: her and she haulk.
• 38:23
  Speaker 5: So yeah, I liked her. She had a show before
• 38:25
  Speaker 5: that called Orphan Black. Have you've ever seen that? Great show?
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: No?
• 38:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Orphan Black is a great show.
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: I don't think that. I don't think that show made
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: it out of Idaho.
• 38:38
  Speaker 5: No, it's so okay, interesting premise, right, So, so the
• 38:43
  Speaker 5: first episode, this girl she's on a train platform and
• 38:48
  Speaker 5: she sees this other girl from across the way and like,
• 38:50
  Speaker 5: she's like that other girl kind of looks like me.
• 38:54
  Speaker 5: And then through a series of events, the other girl
• 38:56
  Speaker 5: gets killed and then she goes and she she looks
• 38:59
  Speaker 5: at the uh, at the person, and it it's her.
• 39:03
  Speaker 5: It's a clone of her. And so yeah, and so
• 39:08
  Speaker 5: it's like this big mystery of like, why is there
• 39:10
  Speaker 5: a clone of her?
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: It does sound interesting, Yeah.
• 39:14
  Speaker 5: And it gets really really interesting because later in the
• 39:18
  Speaker 5: season there's more clones that pop up. Yeah, what's it
• 39:21
  Speaker 5: called Orphan Black? Hey, well, oh my god, spoilers, Daniel.
• 39:28
  Speaker 5: This is the first episode I'm not spoiling the rest
• 39:31
  Speaker 5: of the season. Yeah. Yeah, And she plays all the
• 39:37
  Speaker 5: clones and it shows how great of an actress she
• 39:41
  Speaker 5: is because they're all very, very different.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: She's easy on the eyes too, so yeah.
• 39:46
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Orphan Black's a really interesting show.
• 39:49
  Speaker 3: So I don't tell your wife that.
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: So she's easy on the eyes. Yeah, I mean, I'm
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: not googling over I'm she's so high.
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: I hope she has a boob wind.
• 40:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Where's my Dune popcorn bucket? Right?
• 40:08
  Speaker 4: God? Oh yeah, Dad, we need you back?
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: We popcorn buckets or any of the new movie ones.
• 40:23
  Speaker 5: I don't I don't buy the popcorn buckets. I'm just
• 40:25
  Speaker 5: that's not a thing for me.
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah. That the Dune one was the you know, because
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: it was too joke. Yeah, well it was just too crazy.
• 40:32
  Speaker 3: It's just like, yeah, I'm a big Dune fan.
• 40:34
  Speaker 5: So now if we get a Paddington popcorn bucket.
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: Well there you go. Yeah. Yeah.
• 40:41
  Speaker 4: The next popcorn buck bucket I might get is uh
• 40:44
  Speaker 4: the Superman movie.
• 40:46
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, so what they do with that?
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, well it could be a red boot.
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: Maybe just like a giant or uh yeah, I'll probably
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: just be it will probably just be you know, his
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: chess piece.
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: You want to be Superman's ass.
• 41:15
  Speaker 4: That that's like the old Bill Cosby joke where he says, uh,
• 41:19
  Speaker 4: you know, got Clark Kent mild mannon reporter. He goes
• 41:22
  Speaker 4: into the goes into the phone booth and starts to
• 41:24
  Speaker 4: change his clothes, and quickly a cop comes up, and
• 41:28
  Speaker 4: he's like, can't you see I'm I'm I'm you know,
• 41:29
  Speaker 4: I'm changing my clumb Superman He's like, didn't you see
• 41:31
  Speaker 4: the red ass on my chest? He's like, cop goes, yes,
• 41:34
  Speaker 4: I'll give you a red ass and a black nose
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: if you don't get out of the phone booth.
• 41:39
  Speaker 5: Well, oh my, yeah, bad joke.
• 41:42
  Speaker 4: And and and also it's probably not great to quote
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: Bill Cosby jokes anymore.
• 41:47
  Speaker 5: Probably not, probably not anymore funny.
• 41:50
  Speaker 3: Comedian did a horrible thing.
• 41:53
  Speaker 5: Right, oh yeah, absolutely allegedly. Yeah, well, convicted of at least.
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you went to prison somehow got out but uh somehow, yeah, just.
• 42:08
  Speaker 5: Like Balbkatin somehow he returned.
• 42:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, let's keep our voices down about people getting out
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: of prison.
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: I don't want certain people getting there.
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, just what he won this week's shut up.
• 42:27
  Speaker 5: Anything else you wanted to bring up chess biz.
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: Well, I'm just hoping the rest of the season picks
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: up a little bit, you know. Yeah, I'm ready for
• 42:36
  Speaker 3: the finale. I want some I want the villain this season.
• 42:40
  Speaker 5: You know, I think this is the first episode where
• 42:42
  Speaker 5: we did not have any of the uh the space
• 42:45
  Speaker 5: rifts that we had been talking about.
• 42:49
  Speaker 4: The right, yeah, all right, because Mariner mentioned it. She's like, uh, oh,
• 42:55
  Speaker 4: we're checking out these things.
• 42:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 42:56
  Speaker 3: Do you think the twos, you know, if they're going
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: to do space rifts, do you think they're going to
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: go to the real world like Mariner or somebody into
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: a TV show?
• 43:05
  Speaker 5: Maybe?
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: I think every one of those characters could.
• 43:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's possible. I really do think it's
• 43:13
  Speaker 5: gonna lead us to that big space battle in the
• 43:15
  Speaker 5: in the show open, I think that's where we're ending.
• 43:19
  Speaker 3: I mean I can see Mariner going, I can well,
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: the Boys is wrapping up, so jack Quaid could because.
• 43:27
  Speaker 5: Man jack Quade is getting to be such a big
• 43:29
  Speaker 5: deal now, yeah, like he needs the time in his
• 43:33
  Speaker 5: schedule to do other stuff.
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: Is the next season of the Boys the last one, yes.
• 43:38
  Speaker 5: Of the regular show, but they're still going to do
• 43:40
  Speaker 5: spin off shows like they're gonna go gen B and
• 43:43
  Speaker 5: then they're working on the Boys Mexico Boys Mexico.
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, okay.
• 43:50
  Speaker 5: And then uh and then Jack Quaid is I know
• 43:53
  Speaker 5: he's the voice of Superman and that My Adventures with
• 43:55
  Speaker 5: Superman show, okay, yeah, and then he's in it. Just
• 44:02
  Speaker 5: a ton of movies coming up, so I'm really surprised
• 44:05
  Speaker 5: Marvel hasn't picked him up for something yet.
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, oh yeah, or DC you know, yeah, James Gunn Now, I.
• 44:14
  Speaker 5: Feel like he would make a great Booster Gold.
• 44:18
  Speaker 4: I was gonna say, like, I uh, you know, if
• 44:20
  Speaker 4: they were gonna do like an older timeline, you know,
• 44:23
  Speaker 4: a Superman in his forties, he would make a good
• 44:25
  Speaker 4: Jimmy Olsen.
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say Jimmy Olsen because he's more of
• 44:29
  Speaker 3: that kind of nerdy type. Yeah right, Yeah, it's funny
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: because his dad's buff and yeah, you know, he's completely
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: opposite than his dad than Dennis.
• 44:41
  Speaker 5: So yeah, that's true, that's true. But there are different
• 44:44
  Speaker 5: types of actors too, Like he's more comedia than his
• 44:47
  Speaker 5: dad was.
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yep, yep, definitely.
• 44:51
  Speaker 5: So all right, anything else you want to bring up?
• 44:54
  Speaker 5: Chest Biz? Did he freeze on us? Oh? Are you
• 45:00
  Speaker 5: frozen us?
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: He's frozen?
• 45:02
  Speaker 5: Oh no, yeah, you froze for a bit. Yeah. I
• 45:11
  Speaker 5: was asking if there's anything else you wanted to bring up,
• 45:13
  Speaker 5: and you were just silent.
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Well I just saw all the screens to start
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: circling and I'm like, oh.
• 45:19
  Speaker 4: Well, take your silence as a confirmation.
• 45:22
  Speaker 5: There you go. He pulled the dan.
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: I don't know how I pulled the dan. I don't
• 45:31
  Speaker 3: have any internet on I have full speed.
• 45:34
  Speaker 5: So maybe the dogs are playing video games.
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: You know, this is the first time that haven't barked.
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you might want to go check on him.
• 45:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he just means it up to no good. It's
• 45:46
  Speaker 5: that quiet for that long. They're up to no good.
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: We need proof of life of the dogs on our Facebook.
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, brought it in the house and put it on
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: your bed. Oh god, they did that one year that
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: they brought a bird in there and I was like,
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: what is this?
• 46:09
  Speaker 5: Ye, well, they were protecting you from the from the
• 46:11
  Speaker 5: you know, mechanical birds.
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: Were the birds food critics.
• 46:18
  Speaker 5: They were that bad that they became food.
• 46:20
  Speaker 6: Wow.
• 46:21
  Speaker 3: They ate manure and didn't realize that instead of birds
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: were and then they turned the fat birds. I didn't
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: understand that part, like they were.
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what was that where they poofed out?
• 46:39
  Speaker 5: Yeah, my thought was that they had eaten so much
• 46:41
  Speaker 5: junk food they lost their their taste of food.
• 46:44
  Speaker 3: Okay, that's so much sodium that they bloated at the end.
• 46:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's kind of my thought.
• 46:49
  Speaker 4: Oh, that reminded me of another one liner that was
• 46:51
  Speaker 4: in the beginning part of the episode where uh, the
• 46:54
  Speaker 4: the critic hauls off and slaps the doctor and and yeah,
• 46:57
  Speaker 4: and the captains like, don't do that, and he's like, yes,
• 47:00
  Speaker 4: I deserve that flapping.
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was fun.
• 47:05
  Speaker 5: That's fun. All right, Well, anything else we want to
• 47:09
  Speaker 5: bring up before we wrap it up.
• 47:11
