00:00:03.065 --> 00:00:05.650
Hello there and welcome to

00:00:05.690 --> 00:00:06.471
the United States

00:00:06.511 --> 00:00:08.253
Department of Nerds where

00:00:08.272 --> 00:00:10.676
we are for the people, by the people,

00:00:11.457 --> 00:00:12.339
and of the people.

00:00:12.698 --> 00:00:13.961
Let's jump into that intro.

00:00:51.031 --> 00:00:52.076
Thanks for watching!

00:01:26.871 --> 00:01:27.332
Hello there.

00:01:28.775 --> 00:01:30.117
General Kenobi.

00:01:32.322 --> 00:01:32.822
Can you hear me?

00:01:33.323 --> 00:01:33.864
I can hear you.

00:01:34.185 --> 00:01:35.347
I can't hear nothing right now.

00:01:35.647 --> 00:01:35.989
Hang on.

00:01:36.409 --> 00:01:36.590
Okay.

00:01:59.807 --> 00:02:00.266
Can you hear me?

00:02:00.787 --> 00:02:01.287
I can hear you.

00:02:01.308 --> 00:02:01.867
Can you hear me?

00:02:01.888 --> 00:02:02.828
I still can't hear nobody.

00:02:03.349 --> 00:02:03.909
I can't hear you.

00:02:04.069 --> 00:02:05.430
Hang on while I figure this out.

00:02:07.111 --> 00:02:08.573
Let me check my settings.

00:02:12.534 --> 00:02:13.795
Says mine is working.

00:02:33.953 --> 00:02:36.134
Can you give me a sound check?

00:02:37.356 --> 00:02:37.576
Check.

00:02:38.056 --> 00:02:38.457
Sound check.

00:02:39.239 --> 00:02:39.419
No.

00:02:39.878 --> 00:02:40.180
Hang on.

00:02:41.801 --> 00:02:42.943
I'm going to leave and come back in.

00:02:43.743 --> 00:02:43.984
Okay.

00:02:49.270 --> 00:02:49.710
Can you hear me?

00:02:50.131 --> 00:02:50.591
I can hear you.

00:02:50.670 --> 00:02:51.051
Can you hear?

00:02:51.231 --> 00:02:52.032
No.

00:02:52.092 --> 00:02:52.413
Hang on.

00:02:52.432 --> 00:02:53.054
Okay.

00:02:53.074 --> 00:02:53.174
Okay.

00:03:05.984 --> 00:03:06.824
Hopefully that works.

00:03:06.843 --> 00:03:33.498
All right.

00:03:33.658 --> 00:03:34.780
Let's see if this is working now.

00:03:35.528 --> 00:03:36.348
Okay, can you hear me?

00:03:38.670 --> 00:03:40.671
No, let me try something might be me.

00:03:42.552 --> 00:03:44.332
I have no idea what's going on right now.

00:03:44.794 --> 00:03:45.554
And it's not cool.

00:03:46.495 --> 00:03:47.474
Let me see what's going on.

00:03:49.915 --> 00:03:51.176
All right, give me a sound check.

00:03:53.858 --> 00:03:54.718
Test test 12.

00:03:56.323 --> 00:03:56.682
Hell yeah.

00:03:56.983 --> 00:03:58.944
Okay, cool.

00:04:00.366 --> 00:04:01.806
On my end, it's not surprising.

00:04:01.847 --> 00:04:03.487
This one's a little temperamental.

00:04:04.429 --> 00:04:06.069
So it was on the dark side.

00:04:06.550 --> 00:04:07.751
That was on both of ours

00:04:07.831 --> 00:04:08.671
because I didn't have the

00:04:08.752 --> 00:04:11.593
right headset selected in my soundbar.

00:04:12.775 --> 00:04:13.395
Oh, see,

00:04:13.415 --> 00:04:14.836
I just unplugged my headset and

00:04:14.856 --> 00:04:15.137
plugged it.

00:04:15.176 --> 00:04:15.497
I was like,

00:04:15.516 --> 00:04:17.439
let's see if that's the thing for me.

00:04:17.699 --> 00:04:19.560
I did that three times and

00:04:19.819 --> 00:04:20.980
it also slapped me in the face,

00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:21.802
which you've probably seen.

00:04:23.134 --> 00:04:23.913
Aw, no,

00:04:23.954 --> 00:04:25.314
I was kind of messing with my... Oh,

00:04:25.714 --> 00:04:26.035
there we go.

00:04:26.514 --> 00:04:28.196
Messing with my camera setting just a bit.

00:04:28.995 --> 00:04:30.456
Let's see if I can go high

00:04:30.476 --> 00:04:31.197
def on this one.

00:04:31.617 --> 00:04:32.617
My camera can be a little... No,

00:04:33.858 --> 00:04:34.817
you're crystal clear.

00:04:34.838 --> 00:04:35.879
I got the lights off in here

00:04:35.899 --> 00:04:38.300
and the TV is my only... is

00:04:38.360 --> 00:04:39.000
my circle light.

00:04:40.339 --> 00:04:43.682
Yeah, the lighting in my office is, yes,

00:04:43.742 --> 00:04:44.021
it is.

00:04:44.341 --> 00:04:45.963
It is very much the joy of live TV.

00:04:46.463 --> 00:04:48.064
Lighting in my office is a little harsh.

00:04:49.084 --> 00:04:50.245
It's in between where it's

00:04:50.285 --> 00:04:52.665
like I need this lighting to show up,

00:04:53.565 --> 00:04:54.387
but it's still a little bit

00:04:54.427 --> 00:04:55.067
light enough where I'm like,

00:04:55.086 --> 00:04:56.146
if I turn my lamp on,

00:04:57.327 --> 00:04:58.127
then I will disappear.

00:04:58.148 --> 00:04:59.509
I will pull a Darth Pelagos.

00:04:59.608 --> 00:05:02.689
I sweat like a pig if I got

00:05:02.730 --> 00:05:04.771
that damn light on right here in my face.

00:05:05.692 --> 00:05:07.312
So I'm like, yeah,

00:05:07.333 --> 00:05:08.192
I'm not going to use that.

00:05:08.742 --> 00:05:08.903
Oh,

00:05:09.103 --> 00:05:10.843
and I get to show off at least part of

00:05:10.923 --> 00:05:13.285
our, some of our pop collections,

00:05:13.305 --> 00:05:14.425
wrestling pops behind me.

00:05:14.446 --> 00:05:16.947
Mine's a hot mess back there.

00:05:17.726 --> 00:05:18.708
I'm getting ready to redo

00:05:18.747 --> 00:05:19.687
this whole thing again.

00:05:19.708 --> 00:05:21.488
I'm just done.

00:05:22.011 --> 00:05:22.271
Yeah,

00:05:22.290 --> 00:05:23.411
we're getting ready to put more

00:05:23.451 --> 00:05:24.432
shelves up for our pop.

00:05:24.451 --> 00:05:25.192
So behind me is our

00:05:25.213 --> 00:05:26.552
wrestling pop collection.

00:05:26.752 --> 00:05:30.014
And then we have some like TV pop,

00:05:30.055 --> 00:05:31.254
like kind of more pop

00:05:31.274 --> 00:05:32.555
culture TV shows back here.

00:05:32.576 --> 00:05:34.697
This wall next to me is kind

00:05:34.716 --> 00:05:37.017
of a mix of movies, movie pop.

00:05:37.057 --> 00:05:37.899
So Lord of the Rings,

00:05:37.918 --> 00:05:38.819
we have a few of those.

00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:41.220
Of course, you know, Book of Life,

00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:43.341
you know, and that kind of thing.

00:05:43.360 --> 00:05:44.901
And then facing me is

00:05:44.942 --> 00:05:46.041
actually more anime pop.

00:05:46.103 --> 00:05:48.403
So a lot of anime pops.

00:05:48.843 --> 00:05:49.084
Yeah.

00:05:49.343 --> 00:05:50.485
I got certain characters

00:05:50.526 --> 00:05:51.807
from the Star Wars universe

00:05:51.906 --> 00:05:52.867
and pop figures.

00:05:53.348 --> 00:05:53.809
I like it.

00:05:53.829 --> 00:05:54.610
Which ones do you have?

00:05:54.629 --> 00:05:57.112
See, I got Hu Yang.

00:05:57.814 --> 00:05:58.235
Nice.

00:05:58.415 --> 00:05:59.216
I got the Ronin.

00:06:00.117 --> 00:06:00.336
Luke.

00:06:00.377 --> 00:06:00.838
Yes.

00:06:00.997 --> 00:06:01.458
Leia.

00:06:02.019 --> 00:06:02.819
Palpatine.

00:06:03.581 --> 00:06:04.242
Obi-Wan.

00:06:04.521 --> 00:06:05.163
And Grievous.

00:06:05.841 --> 00:06:08.223
nice yeah our whole living

00:06:08.262 --> 00:06:09.244

00:06:12.185 --> 00:06:14.266
the darth versus luke in

00:06:14.286 --> 00:06:15.646
the throne room that one I

00:06:15.687 --> 00:06:17.108
actually do not have we

00:06:17.127 --> 00:06:18.867
have a pretty good chunk of

00:06:19.028 --> 00:06:22.410
found that one randomly at

00:06:22.430 --> 00:06:25.911
um shit the emo place in the mall

00:06:27.814 --> 00:06:29.317
There you go.

00:06:29.357 --> 00:06:29.716
There you go.

00:06:29.737 --> 00:06:30.798
I was like, I was like,

00:06:30.819 --> 00:06:32.240
I was going to guess hot topic.

00:06:32.581 --> 00:06:34.122
That's kind of my, it's not,

00:06:34.223 --> 00:06:35.524
it's not what it is.

00:06:35.564 --> 00:06:36.524
Giveaway on that one.

00:06:36.966 --> 00:06:38.067
I know, but it was,

00:06:38.146 --> 00:06:39.348
it's not the same as when

00:06:39.389 --> 00:06:40.370
we were growing up or at

00:06:40.389 --> 00:06:41.370
least when I was growing up too.

00:06:41.411 --> 00:06:43.192
I was like, so different.

00:06:43.733 --> 00:06:44.014
Oh yeah.

00:06:45.774 --> 00:06:46.235
One second.

00:06:46.495 --> 00:06:47.495
My camera glitched.

00:06:47.555 --> 00:06:49.156
Let me check something here.

00:06:49.836 --> 00:06:51.235
The joys of live TV.

00:06:51.375 --> 00:06:53.297
Let me go back to the Mac.

00:06:53.737 --> 00:06:55.096
The Mac comment.

00:06:55.456 --> 00:06:59.298
The joy of live TV.

00:06:59.317 --> 00:06:59.937
Facts.

00:06:59.997 --> 00:07:00.838
This is what we're going to do.

00:07:01.158 --> 00:07:03.298
We're going to do... I know

00:07:03.619 --> 00:07:04.399
over at the Pop Break,

00:07:04.418 --> 00:07:05.778
they like to do their icebreaker.

00:07:06.699 --> 00:07:07.759
We're going to do one here

00:07:07.800 --> 00:07:09.160
at USDN tonight.

00:07:09.220 --> 00:07:11.901
That is... Are you prepared

00:07:12.021 --> 00:07:13.961
for Deadpool and Wolverine this weekend?

00:07:15.250 --> 00:07:16.132
I'm hoping so.

00:07:16.153 --> 00:07:17.415
We have to get our tickets still.

00:07:17.435 --> 00:07:18.536
I didn't get our tickets.

00:07:18.617 --> 00:07:20.399
It's sold out here, I think.

00:07:20.420 --> 00:07:22.043
I have to check.

00:07:22.142 --> 00:07:23.285
I think we'll probably go

00:07:23.384 --> 00:07:24.687
for a very late night showing.

00:07:25.148 --> 00:07:27.151
Usually I wait to see if Brandon's booked.

00:07:28.732 --> 00:07:29.192
I have to wait.

00:07:29.232 --> 00:07:30.353
He's booked this weekend, isn't he?

00:07:31.173 --> 00:07:32.735
He's actually off this weekend.

00:07:33.115 --> 00:07:34.636
Really?

00:07:35.276 --> 00:07:37.158
And then he's back to being booked,

00:07:37.177 --> 00:07:37.757
which is great.

00:07:37.877 --> 00:07:39.278
He gets a weekend here and there.

00:07:39.298 --> 00:07:41.600
It's good for him to just heal up.

00:07:41.641 --> 00:07:43.581
If he is booked, he is working.

00:07:44.083 --> 00:07:44.302
Exactly.

00:07:44.322 --> 00:07:45.624
And if he's to get all weekends off,

00:07:45.644 --> 00:07:46.684
that means he can heal and

00:07:46.723 --> 00:07:48.125
do all those things that, you know,

00:07:48.725 --> 00:07:51.728
mow the lawn and hang out with the fam.

00:07:52.067 --> 00:07:53.528
He's got a honeydew list over here.

00:07:53.588 --> 00:07:54.709
But I think we're going to a

00:07:54.769 --> 00:07:55.610
con this weekend.

00:07:55.629 --> 00:07:56.151
Yeah.

00:07:57.937 --> 00:07:58.877
Speaking of cons,

00:07:58.978 --> 00:08:01.339
it is San Diego Comic-Con this weekend.

00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:02.701
So if y'all are out in the

00:08:02.880 --> 00:08:04.242
San Diego area and you're

00:08:04.281 --> 00:08:05.562
hearing the sound of my voice,

00:08:06.523 --> 00:08:07.363
let us know how it is.

00:08:07.403 --> 00:08:08.925
I've been seeing pop-ups all

00:08:08.964 --> 00:08:09.985
day about it and it looks

00:08:10.004 --> 00:08:11.726
like a fantastic show in

00:08:11.766 --> 00:08:13.067
this year as always at San

00:08:13.088 --> 00:08:14.048
Diego Comic-Con.

00:08:14.067 --> 00:08:15.369
It's one of the biggest in

00:08:15.389 --> 00:08:16.250
the United States.

00:08:16.310 --> 00:08:17.250
I think it may be the

00:08:17.310 --> 00:08:18.511
biggest at this point.

00:08:19.451 --> 00:08:20.833
I think it surpassed quite a

00:08:20.892 --> 00:08:22.314
few of the bigger ones like

00:08:22.353 --> 00:08:25.276
the one in LA and the one in New York.

00:08:25.315 --> 00:08:26.456
I think it's like...

00:08:27.235 --> 00:08:29.156
gulfed them by now all right

00:08:29.197 --> 00:08:29.898
this is I think the

00:08:29.937 --> 00:08:30.997
premiere the premiere

00:08:31.038 --> 00:08:32.778
comic-con although it's

00:08:32.818 --> 00:08:33.840
getting it's getting

00:08:33.879 --> 00:08:34.639
challenged a little bit

00:08:34.659 --> 00:08:35.620
because I mean you have you

00:08:35.640 --> 00:08:37.822
know uh disney's you know

00:08:37.881 --> 00:08:38.903
with the d23 coming up you

00:08:38.923 --> 00:08:40.744
have you know a star wars

00:08:40.764 --> 00:08:43.225
celebration so it's it's

00:08:43.264 --> 00:08:44.546
funny now instead of like

00:08:44.566 --> 00:08:46.267
because you know they killed off um

00:08:47.048 --> 00:08:47.948
That one big.

00:08:48.089 --> 00:08:48.769
The gaming one.

00:08:49.110 --> 00:08:49.791
Yeah.

00:08:50.192 --> 00:08:50.532
Because.

00:08:50.793 --> 00:08:53.154
I forgot what it's called.

00:08:53.235 --> 00:08:53.556
E23, I think.

00:08:53.735 --> 00:08:55.118
I think that is what it is.

00:08:55.217 --> 00:08:55.658
Yes.

00:08:55.918 --> 00:08:55.979
E3.

00:08:55.999 --> 00:08:56.899
There it goes.

00:08:57.179 --> 00:08:58.181
They killed it off because

00:08:58.201 --> 00:08:59.243
everybody was choosing just

00:08:59.283 --> 00:09:00.384
to do their own thing,

00:09:00.563 --> 00:09:01.926
which is cool because

00:09:01.985 --> 00:09:03.548
PlayStation does a really cool one.

00:09:05.197 --> 00:09:06.979
Microsoft's is really cool every year.

00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:08.700
So these people are like,

00:09:08.820 --> 00:09:09.720
we don't really need y'all

00:09:09.740 --> 00:09:10.900
to advertise for us no more.

00:09:10.941 --> 00:09:11.941
Plus y'all don't do such a

00:09:11.980 --> 00:09:12.682
great job at it.

00:09:12.961 --> 00:09:13.261
You know,

00:09:13.282 --> 00:09:14.863
it's cause it kind of tinkered off,

00:09:14.923 --> 00:09:15.202
you know,

00:09:15.383 --> 00:09:16.964
when it finally like the nail in

00:09:16.984 --> 00:09:17.964
the coffin was cool.

00:09:18.264 --> 00:09:19.945
COVID just like done.

00:09:21.525 --> 00:09:23.225
But anyways, but yeah,

00:09:23.586 --> 00:09:25.006
I'm hoping to see it this weekend.

00:09:25.407 --> 00:09:26.967
Bill, our wonderful friend,

00:09:26.988 --> 00:09:28.107
Bill Botkin got the

00:09:28.187 --> 00:09:29.369
Wolverine popcorn bucket.

00:09:29.389 --> 00:09:30.428
I seen that.

00:09:30.990 --> 00:09:31.710
It was really cool.

00:09:32.590 --> 00:09:33.831
We'll see if he got the Deadpool one.

00:09:34.655 --> 00:09:35.557
I'm going to go for...

00:09:35.876 --> 00:09:36.597
Because we're probably

00:09:36.618 --> 00:09:38.038
going to try to do an early

00:09:38.078 --> 00:09:39.379
morning show when all the

00:09:39.419 --> 00:09:40.240
drunkards are asleep.

00:09:40.801 --> 00:09:41.760
And try to get in that way.

00:09:42.501 --> 00:09:43.123
And I'm just going to buy

00:09:43.163 --> 00:09:43.863
everything they got.

00:09:43.883 --> 00:09:44.563
I don't care what it is.

00:09:44.624 --> 00:09:45.283
Popcorn bucket?

00:09:45.543 --> 00:09:45.865
Check.

00:09:47.466 --> 00:09:48.307
I'm getting it all.

00:09:48.807 --> 00:09:49.106
Cups?

00:09:49.648 --> 00:09:51.808
Check.

00:09:51.828 --> 00:09:52.750
$100 down the drain.

00:09:53.289 --> 00:09:53.750
So be it.

00:09:54.912 --> 00:09:56.153
Hey, that's okay.

00:09:56.513 --> 00:09:57.533
What I love about going back

00:09:57.573 --> 00:09:59.495
to the theaters is it's an experience.

00:10:00.235 --> 00:10:02.336
I actually went to see a

00:10:02.437 --> 00:10:03.817
different... The plan was...

00:10:05.525 --> 00:10:05.765
You know,

00:10:05.846 --> 00:10:07.287
I'll probably go see Deadpool and

00:10:07.307 --> 00:10:07.767
Wolverine.

00:10:07.807 --> 00:10:08.407
That'll probably be the

00:10:08.447 --> 00:10:09.748
first time I go back into a

00:10:09.807 --> 00:10:10.749
theater for the first time

00:10:10.769 --> 00:10:11.509
in a long time.

00:10:12.769 --> 00:10:15.410
But my daughter was like, hey, dad.

00:10:18.452 --> 00:10:18.793
What was it?

00:10:18.812 --> 00:10:21.514
Bad Boys 4 is coming to the theater.

00:10:22.414 --> 00:10:23.394
We went and seen Bad Boys 3.

00:10:24.255 --> 00:10:25.355
We got to go see Bad Boys 4.

00:10:25.515 --> 00:10:27.157
And it was great.

00:10:27.336 --> 00:10:27.736
It was fun.

00:10:27.756 --> 00:10:28.398
I had a good time.

00:10:28.538 --> 00:10:29.398
So for the little kid that

00:10:29.418 --> 00:10:31.759
was running around, which irritated me,

00:10:31.818 --> 00:10:33.419
I'm like, dude, why are you even here?

00:10:33.460 --> 00:10:34.581
This is a rated R flick.

00:10:35.173 --> 00:10:36.615
yeah don't bring your kids

00:10:36.654 --> 00:10:37.816
to the rated r flicks I'm

00:10:37.836 --> 00:10:39.577
sorry or if you do make

00:10:39.618 --> 00:10:40.457
sure they can sit still

00:10:41.879 --> 00:10:43.801
please let them sit still

00:10:43.921 --> 00:10:46.222
but uh yeah I heard good

00:10:46.263 --> 00:10:47.124
things about it I haven't

00:10:47.163 --> 00:10:48.164
seen it I enjoyed it I

00:10:48.205 --> 00:10:50.025
enjoyed it good you're the

00:10:50.086 --> 00:10:51.307
third person I've talked to

00:10:51.346 --> 00:10:52.168
that says they've really

00:10:52.207 --> 00:10:53.168
enjoyed it so now I have to

00:10:53.208 --> 00:10:55.431
go see it well let's jump

00:10:55.471 --> 00:10:56.572
into something that not so

00:10:56.611 --> 00:10:57.711
many people have enjoyed

00:10:57.751 --> 00:11:01.895
and continue to treat like a turd

00:11:02.730 --> 00:11:03.912
And that is the Alkalite.

00:11:03.932 --> 00:11:04.951
That is what we're here for.

00:11:06.152 --> 00:11:08.553
So the Alkalite is set about

00:11:08.594 --> 00:11:11.695
a century before Episode 1,

00:11:11.695 --> 00:11:12.414
The Phantom Menace.

00:11:13.456 --> 00:11:14.936
And it's basically the final

00:11:14.975 --> 00:11:16.956
days of the High Republic era.

00:11:18.197 --> 00:11:19.957
It is a mystery thriller,

00:11:20.239 --> 00:11:23.000
murder mystery set on... It

00:11:24.820 --> 00:11:25.980
starts out on Brindock,

00:11:26.541 --> 00:11:28.062
which is where the Coven of Witches

00:11:28.808 --> 00:11:29.808
That this is kind of like

00:11:30.509 --> 00:11:32.750
centered around the children of, you know,

00:11:33.270 --> 00:11:33.750
two witches.

00:11:35.051 --> 00:11:35.792
And I think they're saying

00:11:35.892 --> 00:11:39.113
the year was 132 BBY is

00:11:39.133 --> 00:11:39.773
what I think it is.

00:11:41.354 --> 00:11:42.573
But that, you know,

00:11:42.714 --> 00:11:43.815
that's basically the time

00:11:43.835 --> 00:11:44.554
frame we're looking at.

00:11:44.615 --> 00:11:45.615
It's our first time in Star

00:11:45.635 --> 00:11:47.015
Wars history that we are in

00:11:47.755 --> 00:11:48.897
the High Republic era,

00:11:48.937 --> 00:11:50.376
which is really cool.

00:11:52.197 --> 00:11:56.080
And honestly, I've enjoyed it.

00:11:56.259 --> 00:11:56.740
I enjoyed it.

00:11:57.607 --> 00:11:58.288
I'm not going to lie.

00:11:58.408 --> 00:11:59.169
I could have probably done

00:11:59.190 --> 00:12:02.354
without the last flashback episode.

00:12:02.514 --> 00:12:04.235
That was episode seven, I think.

00:12:04.255 --> 00:12:05.357
Seven, yes.

00:12:05.817 --> 00:12:06.599
I would have liked to get a

00:12:06.840 --> 00:12:08.841
little bit more substance

00:12:09.383 --> 00:12:11.044
out of that episode

00:12:11.085 --> 00:12:12.846
probably versus giving us

00:12:13.729 --> 00:12:15.451
another continuation of a flashback.

00:12:17.572 --> 00:12:18.734
See, I'm figuring,

00:12:18.754 --> 00:12:19.774
because we were talking

00:12:19.815 --> 00:12:20.976
about this over the pop break,

00:12:21.596 --> 00:12:22.599
and I liked this idea.

00:12:22.619 --> 00:12:24.581
I want to say it was Amanda Clark,

00:12:24.620 --> 00:12:25.282
or Amanda Jr.,

00:12:25.322 --> 00:12:26.504
as we call her on the pop break,

00:12:26.543 --> 00:12:28.686
that suggested the switch order here.

00:12:28.706 --> 00:12:31.330
She said it would have been

00:12:31.389 --> 00:12:34.092
interesting to see what

00:12:34.212 --> 00:12:35.414
actually the flashback is.

00:12:35.774 --> 00:12:37.155
I think or you see what

00:12:37.196 --> 00:12:38.017
actually happened and then

00:12:38.037 --> 00:12:39.278
you get the flashback from

00:12:39.337 --> 00:12:40.940
the point of view where you're like,

00:12:40.960 --> 00:12:42.000
that's not what really happened.

00:12:42.541 --> 00:12:43.160
So it's like you get the

00:12:43.181 --> 00:12:44.101
flashback episode.

00:12:44.322 --> 00:12:45.163
You kind of see what happened.

00:12:45.182 --> 00:12:46.464
And then here's what really happened.

00:12:46.484 --> 00:12:47.345
And you're like, oh,

00:12:48.225 --> 00:12:49.447
that would see that would

00:12:49.466 --> 00:12:50.927
have gave us more substance, though.

00:12:50.967 --> 00:12:51.148
Yes.

00:12:51.508 --> 00:12:53.389
You know, and that's not what we got.

00:12:53.870 --> 00:12:55.171
We kind of got like the same

00:12:55.270 --> 00:12:56.511
one from episode three.

00:12:56.552 --> 00:12:59.174
I think it was three or four.

00:12:59.894 --> 00:13:00.855
It was almost the exact.

00:13:00.936 --> 00:13:01.517
It was like.

00:13:02.759 --> 00:13:04.461
The same two episodes, basically,

00:13:04.562 --> 00:13:05.984
with a little bit more, you know,

00:13:06.904 --> 00:13:08.246
sprinkled in a little salt

00:13:08.287 --> 00:13:09.148
bae on top of it.

00:13:09.187 --> 00:13:10.990
You know, like, oh, here's a little more.

00:13:11.010 --> 00:13:12.953
I'm like, you cannot be serious.

00:13:13.475 --> 00:13:14.275
This is the episode we're

00:13:14.296 --> 00:13:15.697
getting on episode seven

00:13:15.738 --> 00:13:16.739
before the finale.

00:13:17.860 --> 00:13:19.202
But hey, what are you going to do?

00:13:20.828 --> 00:13:21.028
I mean,

00:13:21.068 --> 00:13:22.529
a lot of it is the short episode

00:13:22.590 --> 00:13:23.070
runtimes.

00:13:23.750 --> 00:13:24.490
They were short.

00:13:24.630 --> 00:13:25.792
They were very short.

00:13:25.991 --> 00:13:26.192
Yeah.

00:13:26.251 --> 00:13:27.972
Because I was expecting

00:13:28.013 --> 00:13:29.113
about an hour an episode,

00:13:29.153 --> 00:13:30.094
and I don't think we got that.

00:13:30.114 --> 00:13:31.575
I think we got, what, 40 minutes?

00:13:32.215 --> 00:13:32.654
If that.

00:13:33.115 --> 00:13:35.297
Some of them were 27, like right at 30.

00:13:35.876 --> 00:13:36.697
If you're shaving off time

00:13:36.716 --> 00:13:37.258
for the credits.

00:13:38.118 --> 00:13:39.477
they were they were short

00:13:40.018 --> 00:13:42.538
and um you know I i figured

00:13:42.558 --> 00:13:43.639
we'd get at least like one

00:13:43.658 --> 00:13:46.059
or maybe two an hour

00:13:46.139 --> 00:13:47.799
episodes and we got none

00:13:48.759 --> 00:13:50.581
which is surprising I was

00:13:50.600 --> 00:13:53.961
like oh bad editing yeah so

00:13:53.981 --> 00:13:56.162
that's the um is that

00:13:56.221 --> 00:13:57.381
snyder school of editing

00:13:57.442 --> 00:13:59.383
right there maybe we have

00:13:59.403 --> 00:14:00.562
to wait for the director's cut

00:14:02.073 --> 00:14:03.174
uh I'm gonna apologize right

00:14:03.195 --> 00:14:04.316
off the bat you might hear

00:14:04.395 --> 00:14:05.557
some thunder it's starting

00:14:05.596 --> 00:14:06.839

go let's jump into the cast

00:14:30.020 --> 00:14:30.961
what did you think about

00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:34.303
the cast of the acolyte oh

00:14:34.403 --> 00:14:35.484
man there were some

00:14:35.924 --> 00:14:37.326
definitely some standouts

00:14:37.725 --> 00:14:38.966
for sure who's your

00:14:38.986 --> 00:14:41.469
standout oh man I'm so torn

00:14:42.129 --> 00:14:43.490
I'm so for two entirely

00:14:43.509 --> 00:14:45.711
different reasons who are you thinking

00:14:46.485 --> 00:14:50.245
First of all, Lee Jung Jae, Master Soul,

00:14:50.745 --> 00:14:51.785
nailed this.

00:14:51.846 --> 00:14:54.365
He learned English by

00:14:54.405 --> 00:14:55.706
watching Qui-Gon Jinn.

00:14:56.947 --> 00:14:59.047
And you got that energy right off the bat.

00:14:59.667 --> 00:15:00.488
You got it.

00:15:00.768 --> 00:15:02.567
He vibed with Qui-Gon for

00:15:02.807 --> 00:15:03.727
all eight episodes,

00:15:03.768 --> 00:15:04.788
and I was down for it.

00:15:04.807 --> 00:15:06.489
It was awesome.

00:15:06.668 --> 00:15:08.469
He carried so much of the show.

00:15:08.509 --> 00:15:09.229
His emotion sold everything.

00:15:13.592 --> 00:15:14.052
It did.

00:15:14.072 --> 00:15:14.854
It did.

00:15:14.994 --> 00:15:15.313
He just,

00:15:15.933 --> 00:15:17.195
your heart was breaking with him

00:15:17.875 --> 00:15:18.716
so much of the way.

00:15:18.855 --> 00:15:20.115
And when he was anxious and

00:15:20.155 --> 00:15:21.197
just kind of like, you know,

00:15:21.236 --> 00:15:22.297
all over the place and he was,

00:15:22.576 --> 00:15:24.217
he was a mess in this whole

00:15:24.238 --> 00:15:25.099
flashback episode.

00:15:25.139 --> 00:15:25.359
And you,

00:15:26.038 --> 00:15:27.539
you felt that I think more so

00:15:27.600 --> 00:15:30.400
because of him and just, you know,

00:15:30.721 --> 00:15:31.822
I think a lot of that, I don't,

00:15:31.961 --> 00:15:32.822
I don't think we would have

00:15:32.942 --> 00:15:35.244
got that same type of

00:15:36.063 --> 00:15:37.644
energy and emotion from a

00:15:37.985 --> 00:15:39.765
natural born English speaker.

00:15:40.605 --> 00:15:41.606
Cause I think a lot of that

00:15:41.647 --> 00:15:43.210
could have been like him

00:15:43.350 --> 00:15:45.893
genuinely being nervous,

00:15:45.952 --> 00:15:47.956
delivering lines and that kind of stuff.

00:15:48.096 --> 00:15:48.317
So,

00:15:48.937 --> 00:15:50.840
and it kind of like fed into his

00:15:51.741 --> 00:15:54.465
portrayal of master soul and it worked,

00:15:54.745 --> 00:15:56.207
it worked really well in my opinion.

00:15:56.677 --> 00:15:57.278
It did.

00:15:57.498 --> 00:15:57.817
It did.

00:15:57.857 --> 00:16:00.479
I mean, just the emotion he portrayed.

00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:02.059
And what I would have liked, actually,

00:16:02.820 --> 00:16:04.221
one of our guests, Marjani Rawls,

00:16:04.660 --> 00:16:05.260
brought this up.

00:16:05.380 --> 00:16:06.980
And I actually really loved the idea.

00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:08.442
And I wish they kind of had done it.

00:16:08.942 --> 00:16:09.902
Was if you had gotten a

00:16:10.023 --> 00:16:12.302
flashback of Master Soul as

00:16:12.322 --> 00:16:15.043
like a child in the Jedi Temple.

00:16:15.063 --> 00:16:19.145
And just to see where this

00:16:20.005 --> 00:16:21.586
attachment to Osha in

00:16:21.625 --> 00:16:22.907
particular comes from.

00:16:23.506 --> 00:16:24.947
And then I'm like, I'm like,

00:16:24.967 --> 00:16:26.048
that would have been brilliant.

00:16:26.109 --> 00:16:27.289
But then at the same time, I'm like,

00:16:27.630 --> 00:16:28.270
that would have been a

00:16:28.691 --> 00:16:30.153
clear and like even clear

00:16:30.232 --> 00:16:31.214
indictment of the Jedi.

00:16:31.293 --> 00:16:33.515
I don't know if we're ready

00:16:33.556 --> 00:16:36.057
to quite go that far.

00:16:36.217 --> 00:16:36.457
Well,

00:16:36.778 --> 00:16:38.720
we know from other media that the

00:16:38.779 --> 00:16:40.201
Jedi weren't exactly the

00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:41.982
standup citizens of

00:16:42.082 --> 00:16:43.604
Coruscant that they are

00:16:43.644 --> 00:16:44.605
portrayed as later.

00:16:45.085 --> 00:16:46.346
But if you have like crying

00:16:46.385 --> 00:16:48.788
baby master soul, I don't know.

00:16:48.807 --> 00:16:50.370
I mean, what was it?

00:16:50.429 --> 00:16:50.470
Um,

00:16:54.336 --> 00:16:56.738
The first season of Legends

00:16:56.778 --> 00:16:57.899
of the Jedi or whatever it is,

00:16:57.918 --> 00:16:59.139
the animated series.

00:17:02.462 --> 00:17:03.644
For Tales of the Jedi.

00:17:03.844 --> 00:17:04.644
Tales of the Jedi.

00:17:04.984 --> 00:17:05.246
Yes.

00:17:05.685 --> 00:17:07.708
When we see three-year-old

00:17:07.728 --> 00:17:11.290
Ahsoka Tano being taken from her home.

00:17:11.530 --> 00:17:12.551
It's like that vibe.

00:17:12.612 --> 00:17:14.554
Because three years old is

00:17:14.594 --> 00:17:17.516
like... We see newborns

00:17:17.655 --> 00:17:19.377
later on in the Clone Wars.

00:17:19.518 --> 00:17:20.398
Bad Batch.

00:17:20.798 --> 00:17:21.519
Bad Batch, yeah.

00:17:22.978 --> 00:17:25.118
So yeah.

00:17:25.179 --> 00:17:25.680
Interesting.

00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:27.381
Just to give you a chance to get to know.

00:17:27.461 --> 00:17:27.901
We'll see.

00:17:27.921 --> 00:17:30.282
It was the empire that took the child,

00:17:30.982 --> 00:17:33.023
the baby, not the Jedi.

00:17:33.044 --> 00:17:33.944
There we go.

00:17:34.005 --> 00:17:34.164
Right.

00:17:34.204 --> 00:17:34.505
Who knows?

00:17:34.525 --> 00:17:35.566
They may be guilty of it too,

00:17:35.605 --> 00:17:36.386
but toddlers.

00:17:36.406 --> 00:17:36.906
Yeah.

00:17:36.926 --> 00:17:37.666
They weren't off the.

00:17:39.067 --> 00:17:39.528
They called.

00:17:40.489 --> 00:17:41.869
A lot of their practices

00:17:41.890 --> 00:17:42.911
were called into question.

00:17:43.070 --> 00:17:44.412
And it's an interesting way

00:17:44.432 --> 00:17:45.392
of doing it because then

00:17:45.432 --> 00:17:48.253
you see what led to what

00:17:48.273 --> 00:17:49.154
happened with Anakin.

00:17:49.994 --> 00:17:50.836
Ultimately.

00:17:50.855 --> 00:17:52.297
You want a fun fact of the day.

00:17:53.628 --> 00:17:54.048
Let's hear it.

00:17:54.749 --> 00:17:57.130
The Jedi Temple was built on

00:17:57.170 --> 00:17:58.971
the Sith Shrine of the Depths.

00:18:00.830 --> 00:18:02.511
And it also explains how the

00:18:02.571 --> 00:18:04.451
Jedi were clouded by the

00:18:04.571 --> 00:18:05.952
dark side and how their

00:18:06.313 --> 00:18:08.773
connection with the Force was corrupted.

00:18:09.693 --> 00:18:10.933
Fun fact of the day.

00:18:10.953 --> 00:18:13.714
It explains a lot of the stuff.

00:18:14.875 --> 00:18:16.776
I mean, you can read it in Legends, but...

00:18:18.009 --> 00:18:20.373
It's one of those where it makes sense,

00:18:20.933 --> 00:18:21.734
everything that has

00:18:21.894 --> 00:18:24.317
happened to the Jedi from

00:18:24.919 --> 00:18:28.423
the Acolyte until where we

00:18:28.502 --> 00:18:31.307
are now in the Star Wars timeline.

00:18:31.942 --> 00:18:33.084
And I'm wondering if that's

00:18:33.144 --> 00:18:34.045
something that will come

00:18:34.164 --> 00:18:35.465
from Legends into Canon.

00:18:35.766 --> 00:18:37.386
Because a lot of people are questioning.

00:18:37.426 --> 00:18:37.946
I'm hoping it does.

00:18:38.488 --> 00:18:39.749
A lot of people are questioning,

00:18:39.848 --> 00:18:41.329
why didn't Yoda sense all of this?

00:18:41.390 --> 00:18:42.410
And where was Yoda?

00:18:42.430 --> 00:18:43.030
I mean,

00:18:43.070 --> 00:18:44.551
Yoda's been living in the temple since,

00:18:44.951 --> 00:18:46.553
you know, for 800 plus years.

00:18:47.114 --> 00:18:48.474
Yeah, that makes a lot of sense.

00:18:49.776 --> 00:18:50.435
He might have been in his

00:18:50.476 --> 00:18:51.557
late 700s in this series.

00:18:51.576 --> 00:18:53.438
Ooh.

00:18:55.915 --> 00:18:57.356
Well, he was what?

00:18:57.376 --> 00:18:57.916
900 when he died?

00:18:57.957 --> 00:18:58.656
Yeah.

00:18:58.696 --> 00:19:00.958
He was into his 900s when he died.

00:19:00.978 --> 00:19:01.218
Yeah.

00:19:01.419 --> 00:19:02.058
So about 700s.

00:19:02.098 --> 00:19:02.419
Yeah.

00:19:02.499 --> 00:19:04.180
Sounds about right.

00:19:05.000 --> 00:19:05.881
But who was your second?

00:19:06.800 --> 00:19:07.800
Manny Jacinto.

00:19:07.820 --> 00:19:10.383
Oh, my gosh.

00:19:11.803 --> 00:19:13.364
Just went from being, you know,

00:19:13.564 --> 00:19:15.164
just kind of this goofy.

00:19:15.565 --> 00:19:16.806
He was a side character.

00:19:17.066 --> 00:19:17.425
He was.

00:19:17.465 --> 00:19:18.645
And then all of a sudden he

00:19:18.685 --> 00:19:19.507
was the main act.

00:19:19.527 --> 00:19:21.768
And he stole the entire damn show.

00:19:22.248 --> 00:19:22.827
Oh, he did.

00:19:22.907 --> 00:19:23.729
And all of a sudden, yeah,

00:19:23.749 --> 00:19:24.849
he went from side character,

00:19:24.930 --> 00:19:26.450
kind of goofy, kind of like, you know,

00:19:26.589 --> 00:19:29.571
kind of like you could write off to.

00:19:30.633 --> 00:19:31.853
I'm going to steal from, you know,

00:19:31.873 --> 00:19:32.673
Ren Sinclair here,

00:19:32.733 --> 00:19:35.154
mad main character energy here.

00:19:35.355 --> 00:19:39.998
So straight up just just came in.

00:19:40.178 --> 00:19:41.519
Shout out to Ren Sinclair.

00:19:41.558 --> 00:19:43.480
She's killing it on NXT right now.

00:19:43.979 --> 00:19:44.759
Yes, she is.

00:19:44.838 --> 00:19:45.720
That's Star Wars now.

00:19:46.180 --> 00:19:47.300
Sorry, had to throw it out there.

00:19:47.320 --> 00:19:47.901
She's killing it.

00:19:47.921 --> 00:19:48.441
You want to put her in the

00:19:48.461 --> 00:19:49.402
Star Wars universe, y'all can.

00:19:49.662 --> 00:19:50.021
Just saying.

00:19:50.142 --> 00:19:51.082
I'd be down for it.

00:19:51.402 --> 00:19:53.323
She's killing it right now in NXT.

00:19:53.603 --> 00:19:54.463
I'm liking the character.

00:19:55.070 --> 00:19:56.811

00:19:56.912 --> 00:19:57.952

00:19:57.992 --> 00:19:59.353
his main character energy

00:19:59.573 --> 00:20:00.773

00:20:00.834 --> 00:20:02.355

whole thing but I'm taking

00:20:17.182 --> 00:20:17.843
your word for it

00:20:18.496 --> 00:20:19.696
Yeah, just it's a thing.

00:20:19.717 --> 00:20:20.397
It's a thing.

00:20:20.498 --> 00:20:21.919
All the guys that are it

00:20:24.580 --> 00:20:25.741
So it's a rat boy summer.

00:20:26.762 --> 00:20:27.403
All righty.

00:20:27.462 --> 00:20:28.523
Y'all heard it here first,

00:20:28.564 --> 00:20:29.684
ladies and gentlemen.

00:20:31.246 --> 00:20:33.367
But yeah, I just I loved how he came in.

00:20:34.067 --> 00:20:35.630
He killed it with the lightsaber bottles.

00:20:36.250 --> 00:20:36.710
Those two.

00:20:36.750 --> 00:20:37.351
I'm like, I'm here.

00:20:37.371 --> 00:20:38.652
Did you see his training?

00:20:39.051 --> 00:20:39.413
Yes.

00:20:40.472 --> 00:20:41.114
Jesus.

00:20:41.193 --> 00:20:41.374
Like,

00:20:41.814 --> 00:20:44.016
like how fast he was moving in some

00:20:44.056 --> 00:20:44.395
of it.

00:20:44.415 --> 00:20:45.317
Well, him and soul both.

00:20:45.396 --> 00:20:47.318
And yeah, keep in mind souls in his life.

00:20:48.200 --> 00:20:50.761
or Lee Jun Jae is in his 50s, I think.

00:20:50.922 --> 00:20:52.042
I want to say yes.

00:20:52.103 --> 00:20:53.523
Late 40s, early 50s.

00:20:54.025 --> 00:20:56.125
And that dude was getting

00:20:56.165 --> 00:20:58.028
down with the lightsaber battle.

00:20:58.188 --> 00:20:59.669
Oh, he was born for Star Wars.

00:21:00.349 --> 00:21:01.089
He really was.

00:21:01.911 --> 00:21:02.431
He was.

00:21:02.750 --> 00:21:03.672
That scene in the woods

00:21:03.711 --> 00:21:05.353
where he has the initial

00:21:05.473 --> 00:21:07.295
fight with Chimera and then he crouches,

00:21:07.734 --> 00:21:09.376
gets down on one knee, excuse me,

00:21:09.436 --> 00:21:10.978
one leg is out and he's got the saber,

00:21:11.018 --> 00:21:12.858
just goes into that pose instinctively.

00:21:12.898 --> 00:21:13.559
I was like, that was...

00:21:15.355 --> 00:21:18.219
That little movement was pure poetry.

00:21:18.239 --> 00:21:20.381
Then we got that awesome-ass

00:21:20.441 --> 00:21:22.303
force push toward the end

00:21:22.323 --> 00:21:23.544
of the battle and the

00:21:23.584 --> 00:21:26.787
finale that was like, dude.

00:21:26.946 --> 00:21:28.989
He was underestimated for

00:21:29.449 --> 00:21:31.550
the entire eight episodes.

00:21:32.571 --> 00:21:33.673
You didn't really see how

00:21:33.752 --> 00:21:35.255
really powerful he was until...

00:21:36.240 --> 00:21:37.681
Like that kind of cemented him like,

00:21:37.760 --> 00:21:38.181
oh damn,

00:21:38.240 --> 00:21:39.521
Master Soul ain't to be fucked

00:21:39.561 --> 00:21:40.083
with on this.

00:21:40.143 --> 00:21:41.523
No, not at all.

00:21:41.544 --> 00:21:44.625
And kind of circling back to Manny Jacinto,

00:21:44.846 --> 00:21:46.887
what I liked about his performance too,

00:21:46.988 --> 00:21:49.388
especially as now kind of,

00:21:50.410 --> 00:21:51.230
you may call me a Sith,

00:21:51.250 --> 00:21:52.070
but I'm not a Sith.

00:21:52.371 --> 00:21:53.172
I'm kind of hoping still,

00:21:53.211 --> 00:21:54.032
I'm holding out hope he's a

00:21:54.053 --> 00:21:56.054
knight of my predecessor, a knight of Ren,

00:21:56.233 --> 00:21:57.694
but that's just me holding out hope here.

00:21:59.296 --> 00:22:00.797
But I like that when he was

00:22:00.957 --> 00:22:02.137
not in fight mode,

00:22:03.058 --> 00:22:03.960
everything he was telling

00:22:04.039 --> 00:22:05.701
Osha made a lot of sense.

00:22:06.321 --> 00:22:07.002
It was, yeah.

00:22:07.403 --> 00:22:08.365
It made a lot of sense.

00:22:08.444 --> 00:22:09.507
And he came across as

00:22:09.527 --> 00:22:11.991
somebody you could be like, you know,

00:22:12.452 --> 00:22:14.576
he doesn't look like the

00:22:14.655 --> 00:22:17.541
typical Sith where it is, you know,

00:22:17.561 --> 00:22:19.044
you have, you know, we look at Vader.

00:22:20.351 --> 00:22:21.511
right even though vader is

00:22:21.731 --> 00:22:23.252
super cool obviously he's

00:22:23.292 --> 00:22:25.093
iconic nobody can top vader

00:22:25.394 --> 00:22:26.973
but he's not the warm

00:22:26.993 --> 00:22:29.496
fuzzies in his or you know

00:22:29.516 --> 00:22:30.715
you don't feel like well I

00:22:30.736 --> 00:22:31.916
can let my guard down or

00:22:31.977 --> 00:22:33.517
mall you look at darth maul

00:22:33.557 --> 00:22:34.597
again very like

00:22:34.637 --> 00:22:35.878
intimidating looking just

00:22:35.999 --> 00:22:37.138
with being from dathomir

00:22:37.159 --> 00:22:38.420
but he was a talker though

00:22:39.259 --> 00:22:40.661
he was you didn't expect

00:22:40.701 --> 00:22:41.842
that from him when you your

00:22:41.902 --> 00:22:44.782
initial impression of him is like

00:22:46.835 --> 00:22:48.478
yeah but didn't he you hear

00:22:48.518 --> 00:22:50.501
his words yes all right

00:22:50.541 --> 00:22:51.683
dude we're I mean what are

00:22:51.703 --> 00:22:53.106
we doing today oh we're

00:22:53.126 --> 00:22:54.127
going to take over a course

00:22:54.188 --> 00:22:55.770
on all right cool let's go let's I'm down

00:22:56.317 --> 00:22:57.478
And it's a different side of

00:22:58.098 --> 00:22:59.359
the force with each one,

00:22:59.601 --> 00:23:00.602
different aspect of the

00:23:00.642 --> 00:23:01.623
dark side of the force.

00:23:02.163 --> 00:23:03.984
But both of those interpretations,

00:23:04.085 --> 00:23:05.205
although excellent,

00:23:05.606 --> 00:23:06.567
and even with Palpatine,

00:23:06.948 --> 00:23:08.349
Palpatine is smooth.

00:23:08.710 --> 00:23:09.391
He's a talker.

00:23:09.411 --> 00:23:11.873
But he was raised that way too.

00:23:12.273 --> 00:23:12.874
Exactly.

00:23:12.913 --> 00:23:13.855
He was a true politician.

00:23:14.675 --> 00:23:14.977
He was.

00:23:15.017 --> 00:23:16.018
I mean, from an early age.

00:23:16.077 --> 00:23:17.578
I mean, like he was found in...

00:23:18.759 --> 00:23:21.561
university learning politics

00:23:21.741 --> 00:23:24.564
yeah and so very different

00:23:24.584 --> 00:23:25.663
interpretations of the dark

00:23:25.683 --> 00:23:27.765
side but not one of them

00:23:27.805 --> 00:23:29.767
made you feel like you know

00:23:29.807 --> 00:23:30.646
you could you're having a

00:23:30.727 --> 00:23:32.008
conversation with someone

00:23:32.087 --> 00:23:32.989
and their points all make

00:23:33.009 --> 00:23:33.848
sense even though in your

00:23:33.888 --> 00:23:35.329
mind you know you know it's

00:23:35.349 --> 00:23:36.391
wrong I don't know should

00:23:36.411 --> 00:23:38.251
be talking to this guy but

00:23:38.471 --> 00:23:40.032
in some ways is he wrong though

00:23:42.269 --> 00:23:43.170
He really wasn't.

00:23:43.450 --> 00:23:44.450
Not in this case.

00:23:44.529 --> 00:23:45.230
Not in this case.

00:23:45.289 --> 00:23:46.330
And so that's what I loved

00:23:46.371 --> 00:23:48.471
about this performance was

00:23:48.511 --> 00:23:49.852
that Manny Jacinto called

00:23:49.892 --> 00:23:51.992
you to question what the

00:23:52.012 --> 00:23:55.335
Jedi did in a whole different way.

00:23:55.595 --> 00:23:56.335
And there's something else

00:23:56.355 --> 00:23:58.635
that I appreciate about Manny Jacinto.

00:23:58.816 --> 00:24:00.916
He put Tom Cruise on blast

00:24:02.217 --> 00:24:03.657
in an interview about his

00:24:03.698 --> 00:24:04.758
appearance in Top Gun.

00:24:05.159 --> 00:24:05.618
He's like, yeah,

00:24:05.679 --> 00:24:06.719
all my lines in Top Gun

00:24:06.739 --> 00:24:07.880
were rewritten by Tom

00:24:07.920 --> 00:24:09.500
Cruise because let's face it,

00:24:09.539 --> 00:24:10.861
it's Tom Cruise and it's his movie.

00:24:11.859 --> 00:24:13.346
He just flat out like called

00:24:13.367 --> 00:24:13.890
him out on it.

00:24:13.910 --> 00:24:15.597
I was like, all right, Manny.

00:24:16.088 --> 00:24:16.509
Cool.

00:24:16.690 --> 00:24:18.191
Now, respect for that.

00:24:18.651 --> 00:24:20.553
And I loved that he went from, you know,

00:24:20.593 --> 00:24:22.153
we kind of, you know, from a good place.

00:24:22.294 --> 00:24:23.095
You know, he's kind of like,

00:24:23.134 --> 00:24:24.275
he always plays the goofy

00:24:24.315 --> 00:24:25.757
kind of character.

00:24:25.777 --> 00:24:26.836
He's the Asian sidekick.

00:24:27.117 --> 00:24:27.438
Yeah.

00:24:27.577 --> 00:24:29.660
And then he comes in and is just,

00:24:30.519 --> 00:24:31.840
leans into the seductive

00:24:31.881 --> 00:24:32.662
side of the force.

00:24:32.781 --> 00:24:33.883
I was like, oh, really?

00:24:33.923 --> 00:24:35.364
We're playing this up.

00:24:35.503 --> 00:24:37.346
I know people say Anakin is,

00:24:37.365 --> 00:24:39.527
and I know a lot of people like, you know,

00:24:39.547 --> 00:24:40.228
Hayden Christensen.

00:24:40.248 --> 00:24:41.209
And he's, don't get me wrong,

00:24:41.229 --> 00:24:42.650
Hayden is a handsome man.

00:24:44.265 --> 00:24:45.826
But I'm sorry, the dialogue,

00:24:45.865 --> 00:24:46.807
I don't like sand.

00:24:46.967 --> 00:24:52.009
Manny Jacinto turned it up a notch.

00:24:52.128 --> 00:24:53.029
Yes, he did.

00:24:53.630 --> 00:24:54.049
There's 10,

00:24:54.049 --> 00:24:55.651
and there's that little extra

00:24:55.691 --> 00:24:56.392
at the end of it.

00:24:56.971 --> 00:24:57.852
Manny kind of turned it to

00:24:57.893 --> 00:24:58.873
that little extra portion

00:24:58.893 --> 00:25:00.534
on the dial and dialed it up.

00:25:01.693 --> 00:25:05.415
Yeah, and I loved his wardrobe, too.

00:25:05.855 --> 00:25:06.556
The look.

00:25:06.955 --> 00:25:08.616
It was simple.

00:25:08.636 --> 00:25:09.176
It was.

00:25:09.438 --> 00:25:10.397
It was raggy.

00:25:10.917 --> 00:25:12.638
It was very efficient.

00:25:13.058 --> 00:25:14.259
I guess if you're traveling through,

00:25:14.279 --> 00:25:16.160
you're not dragging a cloak

00:25:16.201 --> 00:25:16.760
on the ground.

00:25:17.820 --> 00:25:18.260
Practical.

00:25:19.622 --> 00:25:20.642
The most impractical thing

00:25:20.682 --> 00:25:22.002
he had was the helmet.

00:25:22.803 --> 00:25:25.585
Which we talked about that

00:25:25.704 --> 00:25:26.444
with the introduction.

00:25:26.785 --> 00:25:29.046
Knowing you and how much you love legends.

00:25:29.066 --> 00:25:30.106
Were you excited to see the

00:25:30.126 --> 00:25:30.886
Cthorsis helmet?

00:25:31.801 --> 00:25:32.321
Oh yeah.

00:25:32.461 --> 00:25:34.202
Without a doubt that the moment,

00:25:34.383 --> 00:25:39.226
like it in the preview, I was like, Ooh,

00:25:40.266 --> 00:25:41.846
I'm really like Googling, you know,

00:25:41.866 --> 00:25:42.527
trying to be like,

00:25:43.307 --> 00:25:44.788
dig out anything that's, you know,

00:25:45.669 --> 00:25:46.890
morsel of a breadcrumb

00:25:46.910 --> 00:25:47.910
that's on the internet

00:25:47.990 --> 00:25:48.769
before the show ever

00:25:48.849 --> 00:25:49.750
started to find out if

00:25:49.790 --> 00:25:50.911
that's what it really was.

00:25:51.751 --> 00:25:55.534
And then it was like, Oh, okay.

00:25:55.794 --> 00:25:57.054
And then when the show

00:25:57.094 --> 00:25:58.115
finally started and we got

00:25:58.134 --> 00:26:00.076
to see it firsthand and I was like,

00:26:01.988 --> 00:26:02.930
That's the money.

00:26:03.089 --> 00:26:03.892
Because the only other time

00:26:03.912 --> 00:26:05.474
we've seen that, I think,

00:26:05.494 --> 00:26:08.141
in live action was Kylo Ren's.

00:26:08.701 --> 00:26:10.025
Because Vader never got one.

00:26:11.549 --> 00:26:11.990
That's right.

00:26:12.411 --> 00:26:12.830
Was it?

00:26:13.771 --> 00:26:15.272
Kylo's was, yeah.

00:26:15.452 --> 00:26:16.073
It was, right?

00:26:16.212 --> 00:26:16.594
Okay.

00:26:16.634 --> 00:26:17.554
Well, huh.

00:26:17.693 --> 00:26:17.994
Okay.

00:26:18.275 --> 00:26:18.894
I have to go back.

00:26:19.576 --> 00:26:21.136
I have to try to rewatch it.

00:26:21.176 --> 00:26:21.676
I've watched.

00:26:22.076 --> 00:26:22.998
I tried recently.

00:26:23.018 --> 00:26:23.939
It's a difficult watch.

00:26:24.358 --> 00:26:24.719
It is.

00:26:25.099 --> 00:26:26.200
So I tried.

00:26:26.220 --> 00:26:27.161
I've watched it twice.

00:26:28.021 --> 00:26:28.821
I watched it the first time

00:26:28.842 --> 00:26:29.363
when it came out.

00:26:29.383 --> 00:26:30.242
And then I'm like, you know what?

00:26:30.923 --> 00:26:32.085
Maybe I'm being way too harsh.

00:26:32.105 --> 00:26:33.566
Maybe my opinion has changed.

00:26:33.605 --> 00:26:33.865
And I'm like,

00:26:36.284 --> 00:26:38.266
There were more brighter spots.

00:26:38.566 --> 00:26:38.766
You know,

00:26:38.786 --> 00:26:40.127
like the fight scene with him and Rey.

00:26:40.147 --> 00:26:41.689
You find the Vatorian guards.

00:26:41.729 --> 00:26:43.570
It was a great scene.

00:26:43.691 --> 00:26:44.551
There were things I'm like,

00:26:44.951 --> 00:26:45.633
I think I walked out of

00:26:45.653 --> 00:26:46.432
there more frustrated.

00:26:46.472 --> 00:26:47.814
Like there was so much potential here.

00:26:48.214 --> 00:26:48.934
It really was.

00:26:49.076 --> 00:26:50.217
And the fact that, you know,

00:26:50.297 --> 00:26:51.817
it took us three episodes

00:26:51.837 --> 00:26:53.859
that learned that Rey was a Palpatine.

00:26:54.861 --> 00:26:55.340
Oh, I know.

00:26:56.501 --> 00:26:58.223
And he still believed in the,

00:26:58.503 --> 00:26:59.884
like the way his viewpoints

00:26:59.944 --> 00:27:00.586
in the Sith universe.

00:27:01.982 --> 00:27:03.444
changed from you know the

00:27:03.484 --> 00:27:05.527
rule of two to no it's a

00:27:05.626 --> 00:27:07.229
dyad and I need these two

00:27:07.308 --> 00:27:08.430
in order to bring myself

00:27:08.711 --> 00:27:11.574
back to full power yeah

00:27:11.614 --> 00:27:13.115
there's a lot the two most

00:27:13.195 --> 00:27:15.117
powerful families in the

00:27:15.238 --> 00:27:17.661
galaxy the the skywalkers

00:27:17.721 --> 00:27:18.582
and the palpatines

00:27:20.648 --> 00:27:21.630
I know, there was so much,

00:27:21.670 --> 00:27:22.670
there was so much there.

00:27:22.690 --> 00:27:24.211
And of course we see a lot of,

00:27:24.230 --> 00:27:26.093
I think the current content

00:27:26.232 --> 00:27:28.054
that is in current timeline

00:27:28.074 --> 00:27:30.615
Star Wars trying to kind of

00:27:30.836 --> 00:27:32.557
work with what's been given

00:27:33.057 --> 00:27:33.617
kind of thing.

00:27:33.678 --> 00:27:34.818
But so I'm also very glad

00:27:34.858 --> 00:27:36.098
we're in the High Republic era.

00:27:36.118 --> 00:27:39.561
We get a break to see something different.

00:27:39.622 --> 00:27:40.642
And so I love, again,

00:27:40.682 --> 00:27:41.903
this interpretation of the

00:27:41.942 --> 00:27:43.104
Sith and the Jedi and just

00:27:43.284 --> 00:27:45.865
really getting information

00:27:46.526 --> 00:27:48.567
to where it's like, oh, here's why.

00:27:50.116 --> 00:27:51.077
this, this all happened.

00:27:51.758 --> 00:27:53.038
And it's like one or two

00:27:53.159 --> 00:27:54.480
sentences said here and

00:27:54.519 --> 00:27:56.300
there within the show that

00:27:56.361 --> 00:27:58.982
makes stuff make sense from

00:27:59.022 --> 00:28:00.124
the original trilogy,

00:28:00.463 --> 00:28:01.464
not the original trilogy.

00:28:01.525 --> 00:28:02.925
I'm sorry, but episode one.

00:28:02.945 --> 00:28:03.807
Yeah.

00:28:04.626 --> 00:28:05.428
Which I guess would be the

00:28:05.488 --> 00:28:06.929
second trilogy technically.

00:28:07.829 --> 00:28:08.029
Yes.

00:28:08.210 --> 00:28:09.411
But so much good stuff.

00:28:09.431 --> 00:28:10.652
Who, who are your standouts?

00:28:11.092 --> 00:28:11.932
Who'd you love?

00:28:11.951 --> 00:28:16.194
Um, so Daphne Keene, Jackie,

00:28:16.455 --> 00:28:17.856
she was fantastic.

00:28:18.876 --> 00:28:19.597
And, um,

00:28:20.951 --> 00:28:22.451
Shit, I'm sitting here looking at it.

00:28:24.393 --> 00:28:24.593
Yeah,

00:28:24.613 --> 00:28:26.173
she was my she was my favorite female

00:28:26.193 --> 00:28:26.614
character.

00:28:26.693 --> 00:28:28.795
Then it's a toss up between

00:28:28.895 --> 00:28:30.676
Manny and Lee Jung Jae

00:28:31.497 --> 00:28:34.479
between those two in in Daphne Keene.

00:28:35.558 --> 00:28:36.660
Oh, Daphne was excellent.

00:28:36.700 --> 00:28:38.000
She was my favorite female character.

00:28:38.020 --> 00:28:39.580
She was phenomenal.

00:28:39.661 --> 00:28:41.221
And I really wanted to like

00:28:41.702 --> 00:28:42.742
Rebecca Henderson's

00:28:42.803 --> 00:28:44.104
portrayal of Vernestra.

00:28:44.807 --> 00:28:45.627
But I didn't like this

00:28:45.788 --> 00:28:47.009
version of Vernestra that

00:28:47.049 --> 00:28:48.590
much compared to the comic

00:28:48.631 --> 00:28:49.412
book version of her.

00:28:49.491 --> 00:28:51.714
See, and I think that's part of it,

00:28:51.914 --> 00:28:52.935
is part of the writing.

00:28:53.196 --> 00:28:54.458
I feel like I wish we had

00:28:54.478 --> 00:28:55.578
gotten a little bit more of

00:28:55.638 --> 00:28:57.101
the politics part of it.

00:28:58.142 --> 00:28:59.423
And I don't know if the

00:28:59.483 --> 00:29:00.404
second season is going

00:29:00.444 --> 00:29:01.846
to... If we get a second season...

00:29:02.326 --> 00:29:02.527
Well,

00:29:02.567 --> 00:29:05.029
if they want stuff to make more sense,

00:29:05.130 --> 00:29:05.990
they're going to have to

00:29:06.010 --> 00:29:06.851
because they left us with

00:29:06.932 --> 00:29:09.213
so many plot holes that we

00:29:09.273 --> 00:29:10.454
have to see more of the

00:29:10.974 --> 00:29:12.416
politics side of it.

00:29:12.997 --> 00:29:14.278
And what I really want to

00:29:14.338 --> 00:29:19.423
see is basically the

00:29:19.604 --> 00:29:22.487
fallout of the sellout, basically.

00:29:22.866 --> 00:29:23.227
Right.

00:29:23.247 --> 00:29:24.167
Let's face it.

00:29:25.148 --> 00:29:25.730
Well, I guess we'll –

00:29:27.259 --> 00:29:27.799
It doesn't matter.

00:29:28.500 --> 00:29:30.021
Vernestra sold Master Soul

00:29:30.122 --> 00:29:31.961
out as the conspirator to

00:29:31.981 --> 00:29:34.124
this whole eight-episode

00:29:34.223 --> 00:29:36.204
murder mystery that we got.

00:29:36.404 --> 00:29:37.444
I found this was such an

00:29:37.525 --> 00:29:38.506
interesting choice that

00:29:38.546 --> 00:29:40.727
they went with Vernestra for this.

00:29:40.807 --> 00:29:42.007
Because again, like you mentioned,

00:29:42.446 --> 00:29:43.228
she's in the comics.

00:29:43.248 --> 00:29:43.847
That was my first thought.

00:29:43.867 --> 00:29:45.709
I was like, oh, it's Vernestra Rowe.

00:29:45.969 --> 00:29:47.470
She's in the comics and the kids books.

00:29:47.910 --> 00:29:49.411
For the higher public, the kids books.

00:29:49.451 --> 00:29:49.891
And a little bit,

00:29:49.931 --> 00:29:50.711
she comes out here and

00:29:50.730 --> 00:29:51.832
there in some of the young adult books.

00:29:51.892 --> 00:29:52.071
Well,

00:29:52.092 --> 00:29:57.056
we didn't really see Master Vernestra

00:29:57.076 --> 00:29:58.576
in the comic book yet.

00:29:59.137 --> 00:30:01.980
We just see, you know, Vernestra.

00:30:02.540 --> 00:30:03.540
Yes.

00:30:03.701 --> 00:30:05.303
Or Vern, as everybody calls her.

00:30:05.821 --> 00:30:06.061
Yes,

00:30:06.182 --> 00:30:07.542
and so it's an interesting choice that

00:30:07.583 --> 00:30:08.523
they went with a character

00:30:08.564 --> 00:30:09.904
they're currently marketing

00:30:10.925 --> 00:30:13.768
in this era that you're selling comics.

00:30:13.827 --> 00:30:15.489
And all these are considered canon.

00:30:16.170 --> 00:30:17.289
So I'm just wondering how

00:30:17.329 --> 00:30:18.611
this is all going to come together.

00:30:18.671 --> 00:30:20.051
So I feel like the writing

00:30:21.073 --> 00:30:24.095
didn't do Vern a whole lot of justice.

00:30:24.194 --> 00:30:25.155
And we only got one light

00:30:25.175 --> 00:30:26.537
saber whip crack.

00:30:27.156 --> 00:30:28.979
Yeah, I know.

00:30:28.999 --> 00:30:29.679
We got a budget.

00:30:29.699 --> 00:30:30.400
I mean,

00:30:30.539 --> 00:30:32.842
they literally showed us the scars

00:30:32.862 --> 00:30:34.782
on Chimera's back.

00:30:35.904 --> 00:30:37.226
I have questions on that, though.

00:30:37.405 --> 00:30:38.426
Oh, well, we're going to.

00:30:38.446 --> 00:30:38.866
We'll get there.

00:30:38.987 --> 00:30:39.448
We'll get there.

00:30:39.708 --> 00:30:40.127
We'll get there.

00:30:40.307 --> 00:30:42.650
So let's discuss the Sith

00:30:42.710 --> 00:30:43.589
Lords that could have

00:30:43.710 --> 00:30:46.531
possibly been active during

00:30:46.551 --> 00:30:47.212
this time frame.

00:30:49.314 --> 00:30:50.934
So we know Dark Plagueis

00:30:51.236 --> 00:30:54.258
shows up in the finale episode Creeping.

00:30:54.778 --> 00:30:56.538
So that leaves you with more plot holes.

00:30:56.679 --> 00:30:57.480
Why is he there?

00:30:58.200 --> 00:30:59.020
Is Chimera there?

00:31:00.992 --> 00:31:04.015
his current padawan or not

00:31:04.055 --> 00:31:05.476
padawan I should say but

00:31:05.736 --> 00:31:09.357
his number two I know is

00:31:09.397 --> 00:31:13.980
this just before he found

00:31:14.340 --> 00:31:16.721
sheev palpatine what the

00:31:16.761 --> 00:31:17.942
hell is it because we don't

00:31:17.962 --> 00:31:19.103
know because it was just

00:31:19.143 --> 00:31:20.284
like oh he's creeping in a

00:31:20.324 --> 00:31:22.645
cave like I don't know if

00:31:22.665 --> 00:31:23.726
he's creeping he's been

00:31:23.746 --> 00:31:24.567
creeping that long

00:31:25.665 --> 00:31:27.086
the cave I feel like if he

00:31:27.126 --> 00:31:29.267
were kymere's master kymere

00:31:29.287 --> 00:31:30.087
would have said something

00:31:30.567 --> 00:31:33.169
or would have you know I i

00:31:33.368 --> 00:31:34.288
I think he would have gone

00:31:34.348 --> 00:31:35.930
to investigate osha while

00:31:35.970 --> 00:31:37.809
kymere was not around so my

00:31:38.049 --> 00:31:41.030
my thinking of this is is

00:31:41.112 --> 00:31:43.932
kymere is a legit rogue yes

00:31:45.252 --> 00:31:47.693
he he's still he's still following

00:31:49.164 --> 00:31:49.865
What was his name?

00:31:49.885 --> 00:31:51.527
Darth Darth Bane,

00:31:51.686 --> 00:31:52.748
who established the rule of

00:31:52.768 --> 00:31:55.609
two somewhat around 1000 BBY,

00:31:56.289 --> 00:31:57.171
which is kind of where it's

00:31:57.230 --> 00:31:58.912
been at since the Great Sith War.

00:31:58.932 --> 00:32:00.692
And then Darth Bane's like, all right,

00:32:00.794 --> 00:32:01.594
fuck this in fight.

00:32:01.634 --> 00:32:02.615
Now there's only two of us,

00:32:03.375 --> 00:32:04.596
a master and an apprentice.

00:32:05.636 --> 00:32:07.759
So I'm thinking Chimera is

00:32:07.798 --> 00:32:09.519
just a rogue wanting an apprentice,

00:32:09.839 --> 00:32:10.921
an acolyte, if you will.

00:32:12.102 --> 00:32:13.061
I agree with that.

00:32:13.142 --> 00:32:14.583
I feel like Plagueis is like, wait,

00:32:14.683 --> 00:32:16.724
who the fuck's these people, you know,

00:32:16.924 --> 00:32:17.865
interfering with my shit?

00:32:18.903 --> 00:32:19.083
See,

00:32:19.202 --> 00:32:22.305
I feel like you're hitting the nail on

00:32:22.325 --> 00:32:25.125
the head here because I feel like, yes,

00:32:25.185 --> 00:32:27.288
the rule of two is clearly in effect,

00:32:27.627 --> 00:32:28.428
but you have other dark

00:32:28.468 --> 00:32:29.828
side or dark force users.

00:32:30.429 --> 00:32:32.349
And I feel like Chimera is

00:32:33.790 --> 00:32:34.852
more of a dark force user

00:32:34.872 --> 00:32:37.292
than an actual Sith.

00:32:38.432 --> 00:32:39.433
He gives me the energy like

00:32:39.473 --> 00:32:41.295
he's another Ventress.

00:32:41.335 --> 00:32:42.816
You had Dooku having Ventress, right?

00:32:42.895 --> 00:32:43.036
Yep.

00:32:43.796 --> 00:32:47.698
And then Maul having... Oh no,

00:32:47.758 --> 00:32:48.818
he slipped my mind here.

00:32:49.058 --> 00:32:49.598
Savage.

00:32:49.858 --> 00:32:51.339
Savage, there we go.

00:32:51.420 --> 00:32:52.220
Having Savage.

00:32:52.421 --> 00:32:54.040
So I feel like you're right

00:32:54.060 --> 00:32:55.342
that there is a dynamic

00:32:55.382 --> 00:32:57.303
with the Dark Force users.

00:32:57.522 --> 00:32:58.923
And again, there can only be two Sith,

00:32:59.084 --> 00:33:00.525
but there are still the Dark Force users.

00:33:00.585 --> 00:33:01.664
It's just who's going to be the two,

00:33:01.964 --> 00:33:02.265
right?

00:33:03.605 --> 00:33:04.507
But I'm wondering...

00:33:05.666 --> 00:33:06.748
Because we saw Pelagius,

00:33:07.628 --> 00:33:08.970
and I'm wondering if

00:33:09.009 --> 00:33:11.332
Chimera is somehow tied to Venomous,

00:33:11.731 --> 00:33:13.394
because he's also alive around this time,

00:33:13.433 --> 00:33:13.874
I would think.

00:33:14.394 --> 00:33:15.214
Yeah, Tenebrous, yeah.

00:33:15.516 --> 00:33:15.935
Tenebrous.

00:33:16.256 --> 00:33:16.896
Yep.

00:33:17.396 --> 00:33:20.039
Or not Tenebrous, but Tenebrous had two,

00:33:20.420 --> 00:33:20.720
didn't he?

00:33:21.099 --> 00:33:22.662
He had Pelagius and then Venomous.

00:33:23.982 --> 00:33:25.944
Yes, you're correct, I believe.

00:33:25.964 --> 00:33:26.045
Yeah.

00:33:26.989 --> 00:33:29.530
so I'm wondering if it's not

00:33:29.550 --> 00:33:30.932
necessarily tenebrous but

00:33:31.051 --> 00:33:33.653
even venomous because

00:33:33.693 --> 00:33:34.714
venomous was technically an

00:33:34.775 --> 00:33:35.875
acolyte if pelagos was the

00:33:35.915 --> 00:33:41.880
main apprentice so I'm

00:33:41.920 --> 00:33:42.721
wondering if we're getting

00:33:42.760 --> 00:33:45.242
that or here's the thing

00:33:45.542 --> 00:33:46.203
and this is probably going

00:33:46.223 --> 00:33:48.184
to make people unhappy but

00:33:48.204 --> 00:33:49.665
I'm just one second sure

00:33:49.885 --> 00:33:51.827
you put it in share

00:34:04.593 --> 00:34:05.273
Oh, it's not doing it.

00:34:05.314 --> 00:34:06.055
Are you trying to share?

00:34:06.075 --> 00:34:10.518
Yeah, it's kind of like stuck in a loop.

00:34:10.579 --> 00:34:11.699
I have no idea what's going on.

00:34:12.800 --> 00:34:14.802
See, I have a thought on this whole,

00:34:14.822 --> 00:34:15.842
because I know the internet

00:34:15.922 --> 00:34:18.545
like blew up with the whole,

00:34:18.646 --> 00:34:19.567
who is the master?

00:34:19.646 --> 00:34:20.226
Who is this?

00:34:20.246 --> 00:34:21.748
I have a theory.

00:34:21.768 --> 00:34:23.289
Well, an idea.

00:34:24.010 --> 00:34:24.331
What is it?

00:34:25.077 --> 00:34:25.376
So,

00:34:26.297 --> 00:34:27.838
Pelagius was introduced because he's

00:34:27.878 --> 00:34:28.757
already been in canon.

00:34:29.777 --> 00:34:30.297
The books are canon.

00:34:30.338 --> 00:34:31.458
I mean, the whole quote,

00:34:32.318 --> 00:34:33.259
which I always laugh when I

00:34:33.278 --> 00:34:33.998
see the meme where it's like,

00:34:34.039 --> 00:34:34.719
have you ever heard the

00:34:34.759 --> 00:34:35.679
tale of Darth Pelagius?

00:34:35.739 --> 00:34:37.519
Yeah, that's one of my favorites.

00:34:37.599 --> 00:34:38.400
Yeah,

00:34:38.420 --> 00:34:39.940
with his earbuds in and on his phone.

00:34:41.599 --> 00:34:44.061
But those lines made Pelagius canon.

00:34:45.141 --> 00:34:49.722
Nobody else in that line is canon.

00:34:49.742 --> 00:34:50.561
So, I mean,

00:34:50.702 --> 00:34:52.802
if Disney and Star Wars wanted to...

00:34:53.742 --> 00:34:58.965
They can do a whole new Sith lineage.

00:34:59.666 --> 00:35:02.809
Well, I mean, they could in Disney canon.

00:35:03.168 --> 00:35:03.929
Disney canon.

00:35:04.349 --> 00:35:05.811
I mean, it's not going to change legends,

00:35:06.371 --> 00:35:08.012
but they can do it in Disney canon.

00:35:08.411 --> 00:35:09.193
And they might.

00:35:10.092 --> 00:35:11.474
I can see Disney very well

00:35:11.534 --> 00:35:12.494
doing that because they

00:35:12.534 --> 00:35:13.916
want it to be their thing.

00:35:14.255 --> 00:35:14.876
Exactly.

00:35:14.896 --> 00:35:16.056
It kind of takes it

00:35:16.117 --> 00:35:18.599
definitely out of the George Lucas era.

00:35:19.884 --> 00:35:21.625
and definitely like puts

00:35:21.664 --> 00:35:23.286
their stamp their disney

00:35:23.547 --> 00:35:26.268
you know stamp on that so

00:35:26.509 --> 00:35:27.969
yeah I could see them doing

00:35:28.010 --> 00:35:29.371
that now I can also see

00:35:29.411 --> 00:35:30.592
again like with les what

00:35:30.632 --> 00:35:31.612
leslie headland is doing

00:35:31.632 --> 00:35:32.733
which I think is smart she

00:35:32.833 --> 00:35:34.835
is looking at legends and

00:35:34.876 --> 00:35:36.177
she is she does want to do

00:35:36.217 --> 00:35:37.317
knights of the old republic

00:35:37.498 --> 00:35:38.858
which would be phenomenal

00:35:38.898 --> 00:35:40.320
to do which which would be

00:35:40.340 --> 00:35:41.621
it's just how much freedom

00:35:41.641 --> 00:35:43.442
does she have to do that

00:35:43.461 --> 00:35:44.483
because I feel like if it

00:35:44.523 --> 00:35:45.503
were up to her she'd

00:35:45.523 --> 00:35:46.885
probably pull more than pelagas

00:35:47.690 --> 00:35:48.570
You would get more.

00:35:49.210 --> 00:35:49.791
I think you would get

00:35:49.851 --> 00:35:51.052
actually more of the Sith

00:35:51.072 --> 00:35:53.771
lineage from her.

00:35:54.192 --> 00:35:56.393
What I do like about the

00:35:56.492 --> 00:35:57.893
Plagueis appearance is,

00:35:57.913 --> 00:36:00.813
so you know Tenebra, Tenebra,

00:36:01.012 --> 00:36:02.454
however you want to pronounce his name,

00:36:03.693 --> 00:36:04.693
definitely was into the

00:36:04.793 --> 00:36:06.853
darker magic within the Sith.

00:36:07.414 --> 00:36:08.775
He was also one of the first

00:36:08.954 --> 00:36:11.675
ones to get into the

00:36:11.755 --> 00:36:13.936
cloning and trying to

00:36:13.996 --> 00:36:15.076
extend his own life.

00:36:17.625 --> 00:36:19.146
And then Plagueis picked

00:36:19.246 --> 00:36:20.907
that up as well and ran

00:36:20.967 --> 00:36:24.829
with it after he off Tenebris.

00:36:25.548 --> 00:36:26.849
It continued his work.

00:36:27.489 --> 00:36:29.271
He's also the one who

00:36:29.411 --> 00:36:32.032
learned how to do the essence transferred,

00:36:32.472 --> 00:36:33.793
which he's seen as the key

00:36:33.813 --> 00:36:34.673
to immortality.

00:36:35.773 --> 00:36:38.596
Which is where Sidious picks it up as well,

00:36:39.115 --> 00:36:42.157
who we know did make clones of himself.

00:36:42.177 --> 00:36:44.179
Because one of his clones

00:36:44.259 --> 00:36:46.679
obviously went rogue and made Rey.

00:36:48.675 --> 00:36:50.175
So, I mean, and then, oh, by the way,

00:36:50.195 --> 00:36:53.376
this whole fall of the Jedi

00:36:53.496 --> 00:36:56.916
order was started by Darth Bane.

00:36:57.257 --> 00:36:57.856
Not Darth Bane.

00:36:57.876 --> 00:36:59.398
It actually goes back further than him.

00:36:59.438 --> 00:37:01.518
It goes back to 2000 BBY, I think.

00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:04.418
Because I know that the plan

00:37:04.438 --> 00:37:05.920
that Sidious played out was

00:37:05.980 --> 00:37:07.619
like a plan that had been

00:37:07.659 --> 00:37:09.260
over a thousand years in the making.

00:37:09.280 --> 00:37:10.860
Yeah.

00:37:10.880 --> 00:37:11.001
Yeah.

00:37:11.721 --> 00:37:13.661
So it's pretty cool how you

00:37:13.702 --> 00:37:14.563
can go back and you can

00:37:14.583 --> 00:37:15.664
start connecting little

00:37:15.704 --> 00:37:17.985
dots and the show will make sense.

00:37:18.065 --> 00:37:19.326
But if you don't go back and

00:37:19.365 --> 00:37:21.208
you don't Google and you

00:37:21.248 --> 00:37:22.809
don't do other reading,

00:37:22.849 --> 00:37:24.130
you're just kind of like, oh, well,

00:37:24.150 --> 00:37:25.130
this show kind of sucks.

00:37:26.228 --> 00:37:26.889
If you go back and you

00:37:26.909 --> 00:37:28.932
actually look up stuff, you're like, oh,

00:37:29.494 --> 00:37:29.974
okay.

00:37:30.155 --> 00:37:31.856
I think a lot of the criticism, though,

00:37:31.996 --> 00:37:34.920
is coming from people that

00:37:36.402 --> 00:37:37.724
are familiar with Legends

00:37:37.905 --> 00:37:39.588
and are familiar, like they're here.

00:37:40.168 --> 00:37:41.771
And to be fair,

00:37:41.811 --> 00:37:43.072
there are shortcomings to the show.

00:37:43.572 --> 00:37:43.992
For sure.

00:37:44.172 --> 00:37:45.052
We've talked about a few of

00:37:45.092 --> 00:37:45.733
them with some of the

00:37:45.972 --> 00:37:47.853
structure and some of the... And again,

00:37:47.873 --> 00:37:49.494
I kind of feel like Leslie

00:37:49.514 --> 00:37:51.193
Hedlund's hands were tied to an extent.

00:37:51.594 --> 00:37:52.534
I really do feel like

00:37:52.574 --> 00:37:53.414
she's... But were they?

00:37:54.275 --> 00:37:54.474
Ish.

00:37:55.135 --> 00:37:56.315
Not as much.

00:37:56.434 --> 00:37:57.735
I still think she had some freedom,

00:37:57.835 --> 00:37:59.775
but I also think... Because

00:38:00.436 --> 00:38:04.717
I kind of see... What's his name?

00:38:04.976 --> 00:38:06.257
Dave Filoni as being pretty

00:38:06.336 --> 00:38:07.516
open-minded when it comes

00:38:07.637 --> 00:38:09.117
to the High Republic era.

00:38:09.137 --> 00:38:10.038
I think so too.

00:38:10.077 --> 00:38:11.137
And that kind of stuff too.

00:38:11.806 --> 00:38:13.527
But they also report to Disney.

00:38:14.869 --> 00:38:16.572
And that is also true.

00:38:17.132 --> 00:38:18.554
I think a lot of the show

00:38:18.574 --> 00:38:21.838
that people are complaining about,

00:38:22.079 --> 00:38:23.280
if we would have got better

00:38:23.440 --> 00:38:24.362
edited versions...

00:38:25.315 --> 00:38:26.695
Of things, it could have been better.

00:38:26.715 --> 00:38:29.617
Again, the Zack Snyder comparison, right?

00:38:30.038 --> 00:38:30.597
Exactly.

00:38:30.777 --> 00:38:31.737
Longer episodes.

00:38:32.117 --> 00:38:36.519
Again, you know, I think if done well,

00:38:36.619 --> 00:38:37.659
you can incorporate

00:38:37.699 --> 00:38:39.960
characters like Darth Bane.

00:38:40.260 --> 00:38:42.041
You can include Darth Tenebrous.

00:38:42.081 --> 00:38:44.342
You can bring them from Legends over.

00:38:44.382 --> 00:38:45.322
I mean, look at Thrawn.

00:38:45.342 --> 00:38:46.523
Thrawn was technically Legends,

00:38:46.583 --> 00:38:49.643
and he shot over very well into canon.

00:38:50.563 --> 00:38:50.864
Well,

00:38:50.903 --> 00:38:52.744
Thrawn made his grand appearance in

00:38:53.505 --> 00:38:53.704
other...

00:38:54.681 --> 00:38:55.762
And animated before he

00:38:55.782 --> 00:38:57.003
became a live action.

00:38:57.364 --> 00:38:59.646
But he translated well either way.

00:39:00.487 --> 00:39:00.706
I mean,

00:39:00.947 --> 00:39:02.268
anything can be translated with

00:39:02.309 --> 00:39:02.889
good writing.

00:39:03.489 --> 00:39:03.909
Exactly.

00:39:03.929 --> 00:39:05.010
That's what it boils down to.

00:39:05.030 --> 00:39:07.472
And I'm not saying this was badly written.

00:39:07.492 --> 00:39:10.775
Or am I?

00:39:11.211 --> 00:39:13.193
I'm not there was some there

00:39:13.213 --> 00:39:15.016
was some some writing I

00:39:15.036 --> 00:39:15.936
would have to say that was

00:39:16.036 --> 00:39:17.177
that was a little weak and

00:39:17.237 --> 00:39:18.519
I think for me that goes

00:39:18.579 --> 00:39:19.661
back to OSHA May in

00:39:19.721 --> 00:39:22.284
particular and why people

00:39:22.384 --> 00:39:24.646
did dialogue but I know

00:39:24.686 --> 00:39:25.907
we're we're I'm sure we're

00:39:25.927 --> 00:39:26.728
working our way down there

00:39:26.748 --> 00:39:28.170
but yeah there yeah we are

00:39:29.081 --> 00:39:29.922
Yeah,

00:39:30.362 --> 00:39:33.903
but I don't think that Chimera is

00:39:34.324 --> 00:39:36.965
Darth Plagueis' apprentice.

00:39:37.065 --> 00:39:37.967
I feel like Darth Plagueis

00:39:37.987 --> 00:39:39.626
showed up investigating to

00:39:39.666 --> 00:39:40.487
look at the virgins.

00:39:41.128 --> 00:39:41.427
Yes.

00:39:41.889 --> 00:39:43.728
And look into how did they create.

00:39:44.289 --> 00:39:45.409
So I heard something happen

00:39:45.449 --> 00:39:47.570
here about this life being created.

00:39:47.590 --> 00:39:50.132
So that was another question

00:39:50.172 --> 00:39:52.094
that I had to myself was,

00:39:53.735 --> 00:39:56.295
we know this Covenant of

00:39:56.335 --> 00:39:58.396
Witches produced life.

00:40:00.317 --> 00:40:02.697
Not only produced it, but they split it.

00:40:04.478 --> 00:40:05.278
I don't really think they

00:40:05.440 --> 00:40:06.639
meant to split the life.

00:40:07.179 --> 00:40:09.521
Because they say it's two people,

00:40:09.661 --> 00:40:10.262
one soul.

00:40:11.041 --> 00:40:11.222
Right.

00:40:12.523 --> 00:40:14.143
Is the saying that they used.

00:40:14.983 --> 00:40:15.925
So it becomes one of

00:40:15.965 --> 00:40:19.965
those... Did they do

00:40:20.027 --> 00:40:22.228
something wrong when they were doing it?

00:40:22.768 --> 00:40:27.110
Their whole... That's a great question.

00:40:27.670 --> 00:40:28.530
That's a great question.

00:40:28.570 --> 00:40:29.291
It's possible.

00:40:31.650 --> 00:40:33.250
Plagueis there to

00:40:33.309 --> 00:40:35.130
investigate the witches or

00:40:35.150 --> 00:40:36.271
he was just observing the

00:40:36.311 --> 00:40:37.610
witches from the beginning

00:40:38.951 --> 00:40:39.992
and watched them create

00:40:40.032 --> 00:40:41.311
this life and was he there

00:40:41.371 --> 00:40:43.311
to also try to learn the

00:40:43.512 --> 00:40:45.632
secret because hey they

00:40:45.693 --> 00:40:49.152
created life maybe that's

00:40:49.213 --> 00:40:51.213
another key to unlocking

00:40:51.494 --> 00:40:52.893
immortality because that's

00:40:52.914 --> 00:40:53.673
what it's all about with

00:40:53.693 --> 00:40:54.893
the Sith right it's living

00:40:54.934 --> 00:40:58.295
forever for their thousand year plan

00:40:58.990 --> 00:40:59.891
Yeah.

00:41:00.452 --> 00:41:01.331
I don't know if he was there.

00:41:01.351 --> 00:41:02.172
I don't think he was there

00:41:02.231 --> 00:41:02.952
watching the whole time

00:41:02.972 --> 00:41:03.773
because I feel like once

00:41:03.793 --> 00:41:05.393
the kids were created,

00:41:06.193 --> 00:41:06.873
he would have jumped in

00:41:06.914 --> 00:41:08.114
there or done something.

00:41:08.355 --> 00:41:09.175
I think something.

00:41:09.255 --> 00:41:09.856
I think you're right.

00:41:10.295 --> 00:41:11.856
I think something happened, you know,

00:41:11.876 --> 00:41:12.597
kind of with everything

00:41:12.637 --> 00:41:13.597
that went on in Brendock

00:41:13.637 --> 00:41:14.717
that was like undisturbed

00:41:14.777 --> 00:41:15.757
after the witches died.

00:41:15.777 --> 00:41:17.759
But the urgence was still there.

00:41:17.778 --> 00:41:18.840
It never went away.

00:41:18.860 --> 00:41:19.099
Exactly.

00:41:19.599 --> 00:41:20.820
And then you have the twins

00:41:20.920 --> 00:41:23.302
both back near the virgins.

00:41:23.842 --> 00:41:25.742
I feel like he was there to

00:41:25.802 --> 00:41:28.483
investigate and look at you know, okay,

00:41:28.563 --> 00:41:29.744
and I think OSHA may really

00:41:29.844 --> 00:41:30.905
are imperfect because you

00:41:30.965 --> 00:41:34.847
cannot control the force if

00:41:34.867 --> 00:41:36.186
they were able to do it perfectly,

00:41:36.266 --> 00:41:37.547
then correct.

00:41:39.244 --> 00:41:40.164
I think it was an attempt.

00:41:40.184 --> 00:41:41.224
It was an attempt to do what

00:41:41.244 --> 00:41:42.344
the Force did with Anakin.

00:41:42.364 --> 00:41:44.485
Anakin is a true virgin, I feel like.

00:41:46.686 --> 00:41:47.286
I think that was their

00:41:47.327 --> 00:41:48.447
attempt to do such a thing,

00:41:48.487 --> 00:41:49.168
but you can't do it.

00:41:49.807 --> 00:41:54.250
I think Plagueis learned how to do it.

00:41:54.769 --> 00:41:56.951
Anakin was his success story

00:41:56.971 --> 00:41:58.612
when it comes to that.

00:41:59.592 --> 00:42:00.391
The question is,

00:42:00.492 --> 00:42:05.813
was the twins his first trial?

00:42:06.655 --> 00:42:07.574
Was his trial an error?

00:42:09.001 --> 00:42:10.063
That's very possible.

00:42:10.123 --> 00:42:10.983
It's a plot hole.

00:42:11.204 --> 00:42:11.985
You know what I'm saying?

00:42:12.364 --> 00:42:16.007
Which brings me to my next question.

00:42:16.528 --> 00:42:18.070
Were the time gaps slash

00:42:18.150 --> 00:42:19.931
holes in the show confusing

00:42:20.552 --> 00:42:21.452
to the finale?

00:42:22.193 --> 00:42:24.315
And were the two flashback episodes,

00:42:25.376 --> 00:42:26.177
did they really bring

00:42:26.257 --> 00:42:27.818
anything extra to the series?

00:42:27.918 --> 00:42:28.980
Or would it have been better

00:42:29.039 --> 00:42:30.740
to use those two episodes?

00:42:31.402 --> 00:42:32.742
Or have one episode where we

00:42:32.762 --> 00:42:33.943
get a good flashback?

00:42:34.931 --> 00:42:35.932
And then the other episode

00:42:35.952 --> 00:42:38.094
be used to actually fill in

00:42:38.213 --> 00:42:39.134
more plot holes.

00:42:39.333 --> 00:42:40.275
If we were going to do a

00:42:40.315 --> 00:42:42.856
flashback versus two of the

00:42:42.896 --> 00:42:44.257
same flashbacks, basically.

00:42:45.494 --> 00:42:46.396
I think it's just, for me,

00:42:46.416 --> 00:42:47.496
it came down to placement

00:42:48.737 --> 00:42:49.458
of the flashbacks.

00:42:49.498 --> 00:42:51.880
Like, I feel like it would have been,

00:42:51.920 --> 00:42:52.760
like we talked about earlier,

00:42:52.800 --> 00:42:56.983
a very good way to make somebody go, oh,

00:42:57.664 --> 00:42:59.226
you know, if they had done the first,

00:42:59.945 --> 00:43:00.186
you know,

00:43:00.206 --> 00:43:01.387
the first flashback with them on

00:43:01.407 --> 00:43:03.188
Brendock and you're like, oh, okay,

00:43:03.228 --> 00:43:03.728
that's cool.

00:43:03.768 --> 00:43:04.989
And then, oh, that all went down.

00:43:05.110 --> 00:43:05.331
Oops.

00:43:05.811 --> 00:43:06.891
And then, you know,

00:43:06.911 --> 00:43:08.072
get what actually happened.

00:43:08.112 --> 00:43:09.034
And it's like, oh, okay.

00:43:09.923 --> 00:43:10.625
And that's the thing.

00:43:10.664 --> 00:43:11.945
We still never learned what

00:43:12.226 --> 00:43:14.146
actually happened on

00:43:14.208 --> 00:43:16.009
Brindock outside of Sol

00:43:16.889 --> 00:43:18.990
killing what's her name?

00:43:19.070 --> 00:43:19.632
Anisea?

00:43:19.771 --> 00:43:20.672
Anisea.

00:43:23.695 --> 00:43:26.978
Which I think Sol in his bad

00:43:27.018 --> 00:43:28.259
decision making all the way

00:43:28.298 --> 00:43:29.480
through that episode.

00:43:29.559 --> 00:43:31.481
I think a lot of it was his

00:43:31.561 --> 00:43:34.563
connection to Osha has to

00:43:34.603 --> 00:43:35.585
have something to do with

00:43:35.625 --> 00:43:37.146
the way he was brought in as well.

00:43:38.114 --> 00:43:39.795
Because it was like a brotherly,

00:43:39.914 --> 00:43:42.436
sisterly type of love he had for her,

00:43:42.456 --> 00:43:43.117
I think.

00:43:43.858 --> 00:43:44.739
It almost felt like a dad.

00:43:45.420 --> 00:43:46.501
Or a dad-daughter.

00:43:46.641 --> 00:43:47.481
Like a dad-daughter.

00:43:47.501 --> 00:43:50.063
He was very protective of her.

00:43:50.083 --> 00:43:51.864
I felt bad for May, though.

00:43:53.481 --> 00:43:53.621
Yeah,

00:43:53.661 --> 00:43:56.202
we'll get into me taking the fucking

00:43:56.282 --> 00:43:57.463
short straw on that deal.

00:43:57.563 --> 00:43:58.503
No kidding.

00:43:58.583 --> 00:43:59.545
Poor thing all the way through.

00:43:59.565 --> 00:44:00.485
And we'll talk about that.

00:44:00.565 --> 00:44:04.306
But I I'm just I think it

00:44:04.347 --> 00:44:05.246
was just a placement.

00:44:05.766 --> 00:44:06.487
I feel like you could have

00:44:06.527 --> 00:44:07.967
told a better story if you

00:44:07.987 --> 00:44:09.648
had arranged the order and

00:44:09.668 --> 00:44:10.849
maybe episodes longer,

00:44:10.929 --> 00:44:11.969
because I think it's important.

00:44:11.989 --> 00:44:13.650
Like if you see, you know,

00:44:13.891 --> 00:44:14.650
here's this was.

00:44:14.670 --> 00:44:18.152
I mean, shit, the Bad Batch finale,

00:44:18.192 --> 00:44:19.012
I think, was an hour.

00:44:19.032 --> 00:44:19.092
Yep.

00:44:21.385 --> 00:44:23.166
I think all the Mandalorian episodes,

00:44:23.186 --> 00:44:24.827
the Sokatano episodes,

00:44:24.867 --> 00:44:26.929
I think all of them were 45 minutes.

00:44:27.409 --> 00:44:28.250
Yeah.

00:44:28.889 --> 00:44:30.371
So this is literally the

00:44:30.570 --> 00:44:32.731
shortest series that we got.

00:44:35.262 --> 00:44:37.882
Clone Wars episodes were

00:44:37.922 --> 00:44:38.643
longer than these.

00:44:39.043 --> 00:44:39.722
Exactly.

00:44:39.762 --> 00:44:40.983
And I'm like, you know, I think, again,

00:44:41.003 --> 00:44:42.043
they could have filled in a

00:44:42.083 --> 00:44:43.063
lot of the plot holes.

00:44:43.143 --> 00:44:44.443
And I think you could have

00:44:44.483 --> 00:44:46.324
effectively set up a season,

00:44:46.463 --> 00:44:47.644
more effectively set up a

00:44:47.704 --> 00:44:50.005
season two with some of the

00:44:50.744 --> 00:44:51.826
intrigue that we're getting

00:44:51.846 --> 00:44:52.425
with the Senate.

00:44:52.445 --> 00:44:53.226
Because that inquiry,

00:44:53.266 --> 00:44:54.005
those inquiries are going

00:44:54.025 --> 00:44:54.945
to be interesting.

00:44:54.965 --> 00:44:55.847
I want to be in there.

00:44:55.867 --> 00:44:55.947
Yeah.

00:44:58.166 --> 00:45:00.268
They could do a whole nother

00:45:00.347 --> 00:45:02.869
series just on the, you know,

00:45:02.889 --> 00:45:06.030
the inquiries from the Senate on this,

00:45:06.070 --> 00:45:06.409
you know?

00:45:07.030 --> 00:45:07.329
Yes.

00:45:09.650 --> 00:45:11.650
I am so excited in here for that.

00:45:11.670 --> 00:45:12.030
I'm like, yeah,

00:45:12.050 --> 00:45:13.052
if y'all want to do that show,

00:45:13.291 --> 00:45:13.931
we'll be watching.

00:45:14.891 --> 00:45:15.132
Oh, yeah.

00:45:15.432 --> 00:45:16.233
Without a doubt.

00:45:16.552 --> 00:45:16.992
You got us.

00:45:17.032 --> 00:45:17.813
Without a doubt.

00:45:18.072 --> 00:45:19.673
Imagine like Law and Order, like.

00:45:21.945 --> 00:45:23.867
Hey, I would be there.

00:45:23.887 --> 00:45:25.407
I would be there for it,

00:45:25.467 --> 00:45:26.289
which is basically what

00:45:26.329 --> 00:45:28.690
this show was or how it started out.

00:45:29.811 --> 00:45:30.431
Yeah.

00:45:30.471 --> 00:45:31.871
And so I, I mean,

00:45:31.891 --> 00:45:34.753
what did you think of the, what, you know,

00:45:34.773 --> 00:45:36.233
what did you think of the, the time gaps?

00:45:36.273 --> 00:45:37.434
Were you confused by those?

00:45:37.474 --> 00:45:40.177
I wasn't necessarily confused by it.

00:45:40.617 --> 00:45:42.318
Cause like I said, I, I am the,

00:45:43.018 --> 00:45:44.059
the star Wars nerd that

00:45:44.099 --> 00:45:45.659
does go and look up stuff

00:45:46.000 --> 00:45:47.760
and I can kind of fill in the gaps myself,

00:45:49.001 --> 00:45:49.422
but I, I,

00:45:52.190 --> 00:45:52.849
Like you said,

00:45:52.869 --> 00:45:55.170
an extra 10 to 15 minutes

00:45:55.231 --> 00:45:57.132
per episode would have went

00:45:57.751 --> 00:46:00.753
really far in making a lot

00:46:00.793 --> 00:46:03.634
of more things make more sense.

00:46:05.195 --> 00:46:06.396
Lots of credit to Amanda Jr.

00:46:06.416 --> 00:46:08.976
here because she came to the

00:46:09.016 --> 00:46:10.016
table for us too.

00:46:11.117 --> 00:46:13.137
Let's give a shout out to Amanda Jr.

00:46:13.197 --> 00:46:15.099
She wanted to be here, but she couldn't.

00:46:17.088 --> 00:46:18.670
Oh, Amanda is great.

00:46:18.751 --> 00:46:20.494
Y'all go follow her on the pop break.

00:46:20.514 --> 00:46:21.155
Amanda.news.

00:46:23.052 --> 00:46:24.813
Yes, Amanda.news on Instagram,

00:46:25.012 --> 00:46:25.932
but definitely check her

00:46:25.952 --> 00:46:27.813
work out on the Pop Break as well.

00:46:27.853 --> 00:46:29.193
She's covered The Acolyte.

00:46:29.233 --> 00:46:30.635
She's covered a few other shows for us.

00:46:30.655 --> 00:46:31.315
Bridgerton.

00:46:31.835 --> 00:46:32.114
Yes.

00:46:32.715 --> 00:46:33.175
Oh, man.

00:46:33.235 --> 00:46:34.775
Her hot take on Bridgerton.

00:46:34.795 --> 00:46:37.277
Don't get her started on Bridgerton.

00:46:37.297 --> 00:46:37.577
I know.

00:46:37.936 --> 00:46:38.317
I get it.

00:46:38.637 --> 00:46:39.016
I get it.

00:46:40.137 --> 00:46:41.438
She made a lot of valid points,

00:46:41.557 --> 00:46:42.139
and I know it's going to

00:46:42.159 --> 00:46:43.778
make some of the Bridgerton

00:46:43.818 --> 00:46:44.699
fans out there upset,

00:46:44.778 --> 00:46:45.840
but she had some valid points.

00:46:46.639 --> 00:46:48.141
um so go check out her work

00:46:48.322 --> 00:46:50.143
on thepopbreak.com read her

00:46:50.182 --> 00:46:51.784
articles share she does a

00:46:51.824 --> 00:46:53.184
great job and she had some

00:46:53.284 --> 00:46:54.666
really really good feedback

00:46:54.706 --> 00:46:55.586
here on the acolyte like

00:46:55.626 --> 00:46:56.487
she actually talked about

00:46:56.507 --> 00:46:58.128
originally she thought

00:46:58.148 --> 00:46:58.909
about if this could have

00:46:58.929 --> 00:47:00.650
been a movie or this could

00:47:00.670 --> 00:47:01.992
have been a bingeable if

bingeable show yeah and

00:47:05.655 --> 00:47:06.275
this probably would have

00:47:06.295 --> 00:47:07.396
worked better and then she

00:47:07.416 --> 00:47:08.197

00:47:12.360 --> 00:47:14.021
did and it worked better

00:47:14.121 --> 00:47:15.242
for me I have to go back

00:47:15.282 --> 00:47:16.182

00:47:32.621 --> 00:47:35.063
bad thing that's why we

call her junior and when we

00:47:37.266 --> 00:47:38.407

You got to change your name

00:47:43.730 --> 00:47:44.911
to Amanda Senior.

00:47:45.451 --> 00:47:46.931
She has to be Amanda Junior

00:47:47.311 --> 00:47:47.992
for it to work.

00:47:49.353 --> 00:47:49.893
We will do it.

00:47:50.253 --> 00:47:50.753
It will be great.

00:47:50.853 --> 00:47:51.753
I have no problem.

00:47:51.773 --> 00:47:52.773
Shout out to Rutgers

00:47:52.833 --> 00:47:54.074
University for producing

00:47:54.114 --> 00:47:55.235
some fine journalists.

00:47:55.675 --> 00:47:57.076
Yes, absolutely.

00:47:57.295 --> 00:47:57.836
Absolutely.

00:47:57.856 --> 00:47:58.617
I mean,

00:47:58.697 --> 00:48:00.237
I can see Bill's head right now

00:48:00.297 --> 00:48:03.059
just like growing 10 times his size.

00:48:04.275 --> 00:48:05.615
I mean, he's not wrong, though.

00:48:05.695 --> 00:48:06.416
He is not wrong.

00:48:06.456 --> 00:48:07.117
He's really not.

00:48:07.177 --> 00:48:08.237
And shout out to Bill.

00:48:08.657 --> 00:48:10.378
He's at his daughter's play tonight,

00:48:10.820 --> 00:48:12.121
counseled all his plans,

00:48:12.201 --> 00:48:13.360
moved the shows around so

00:48:13.442 --> 00:48:14.181
he could be there.

00:48:14.661 --> 00:48:16.864
Fucking grade A stand up, Dad.

00:48:17.364 --> 00:48:17.804
Absolutely.

00:48:17.824 --> 00:48:18.445
We love you, Bill.

00:48:18.844 --> 00:48:19.525
Yes, we do.

00:48:19.766 --> 00:48:20.706
Yes, we do.

00:48:21.447 --> 00:48:21.786
We love you.

00:48:21.806 --> 00:48:22.927
Definitely love you way more

00:48:23.248 --> 00:48:24.248
than some of these potholes

00:48:24.369 --> 00:48:25.710
and the orders of these episodes.

00:48:25.789 --> 00:48:26.670
But again, yes.

00:48:27.050 --> 00:48:27.210
No.

00:48:27.851 --> 00:48:29.592
Speaking of plot holes.

00:48:30.112 --> 00:48:30.434
Yes.

00:48:30.574 --> 00:48:33.516
Where the mother coral go?

00:48:34.375 --> 00:48:35.615
In this whole fiasco,

00:48:36.036 --> 00:48:38.298
this lady just like ninja

00:48:38.778 --> 00:48:40.561
smoke bomb disappeared.

00:48:41.521 --> 00:48:42.402
I thought she was the one

00:48:42.422 --> 00:48:43.443
who possessed Kalnaka.

00:48:44.403 --> 00:48:45.945
She did, but then she disappeared.

00:48:46.266 --> 00:48:47.686
We don't, she didn't die.

00:48:48.628 --> 00:48:49.748
See, I'm wondering,

00:48:49.768 --> 00:48:51.389
I had a theory about that too.

00:48:51.409 --> 00:48:51.670
I'm like,

00:48:51.789 --> 00:48:54.813
I'm wondering if Pelagius and his

00:48:54.913 --> 00:48:56.394
research encountered her.

00:48:56.914 --> 00:48:59.396
If for some reason, if that, if they,

00:48:59.757 --> 00:49:01.358
the twins were his first attempt to

00:49:03.291 --> 00:49:04.231
They had to work with someone.

00:49:06.112 --> 00:49:06.914
He could have lent that

00:49:07.014 --> 00:49:09.155
energy and what he knew and

00:49:09.835 --> 00:49:11.237
kind of manipulated those two.

00:49:11.277 --> 00:49:11.797
So I'm wondering,

00:49:11.817 --> 00:49:14.760
did he teach them or did he use them?

00:49:14.780 --> 00:49:16.521
I'm assuming he used them

00:49:16.561 --> 00:49:17.322
because he didn't want to

00:49:17.342 --> 00:49:18.121
teach them too much.

00:49:18.141 --> 00:49:19.762
Welcome back to the network, man.

00:49:19.802 --> 00:49:20.224
Hi, Kelvin.

00:49:20.364 --> 00:49:24.927
Always good to see you, man.

00:49:25.907 --> 00:49:26.668
Plot holes.

00:49:28.329 --> 00:49:29.690
I think that was a deliberate plot hole.

00:49:30.344 --> 00:49:31.126
I think it is, too.

00:49:31.166 --> 00:49:32.666
And I think if we get a season two,

00:49:32.746 --> 00:49:33.568
we may see her.

00:49:34.108 --> 00:49:35.148
She had a lot of anger.

00:49:35.449 --> 00:49:36.710
She had a lot of anger.

00:49:36.730 --> 00:49:39.431
Oh, she was an angry Dathomirian.

00:49:40.072 --> 00:49:40.373
Yes.

00:49:40.992 --> 00:49:42.414
And her look was interesting, too,

00:49:42.434 --> 00:49:44.655
because I, you know, I was like.

00:49:44.835 --> 00:49:45.597
Most of the female

00:49:45.637 --> 00:49:47.639
Dathomirians don't look like that.

00:49:47.958 --> 00:49:48.378
No.

00:49:48.980 --> 00:49:50.360
So it's an interesting.

00:49:50.521 --> 00:49:51.902
So she was like a hybrid of them.

00:49:52.981 --> 00:49:54.561
She was a very interesting character.

00:49:54.621 --> 00:49:56.182
And I honestly feel like

00:49:56.242 --> 00:49:58.623
there's something... She is the key.

00:49:58.643 --> 00:50:00.505
We miss you too, big fella.

00:50:00.744 --> 00:50:01.166
We love you.

00:50:01.766 --> 00:50:02.045
Yes.

00:50:02.266 --> 00:50:03.246
We have to catch up on all

00:50:03.286 --> 00:50:04.407
the summer anime right now.

00:50:04.807 --> 00:50:06.588
Because it is an amazing season.

00:50:08.349 --> 00:50:08.989
Shika Shika.

00:50:09.050 --> 00:50:10.690
If you're watching during Okatan.

00:50:11.710 --> 00:50:15.353
I'm literally on season six

00:50:16.693 --> 00:50:18.014
of Game of Thrones.

00:50:19.335 --> 00:50:19.936
Suffering.

00:50:20.929 --> 00:50:21.911
Because we all know season

00:50:21.990 --> 00:50:24.333
six through eight is just horrid.

00:50:24.592 --> 00:50:25.313
Oh, why?

00:50:25.333 --> 00:50:26.195
But I got to get through it

00:50:26.215 --> 00:50:27.516
so I can watch House of Dragons.

00:50:27.576 --> 00:50:28.797
I don't have to.

00:50:29.177 --> 00:50:29.677
Yeah, but I don't.

00:50:29.998 --> 00:50:30.438
I get it.

00:50:30.619 --> 00:50:30.938
I get it.

00:50:30.978 --> 00:50:32.739
Mental OCD blockage won't

00:50:32.780 --> 00:50:33.661
let me do it without.

00:50:33.740 --> 00:50:34.262
I get it.

00:50:34.802 --> 00:50:35.322
I get it.

00:50:35.362 --> 00:50:36.684
But it is the season.

00:50:36.824 --> 00:50:37.784
Both seasons of House of

00:50:37.804 --> 00:50:38.925
Dragon have been great.

00:50:39.947 --> 00:50:42.389
And I've not heard a whole

00:50:42.409 --> 00:50:43.989
lot of bad things said about it.

00:50:44.791 --> 00:50:46.411
And I'm kicking myself for

00:50:46.431 --> 00:50:47.853
not being already up on it.

00:50:48.851 --> 00:50:50.572
But I'm getting there.

00:50:51.012 --> 00:50:52.773
But I got to do Game of Thrones first.

00:50:53.333 --> 00:50:54.594
Yes, absolutely.

00:50:56.134 --> 00:50:56.574
But yeah,

00:50:56.675 --> 00:50:59.516
I really feel like with Mother Coral,

00:51:00.275 --> 00:51:01.556
I feel like she is the key

00:51:01.577 --> 00:51:06.259
between Pelagos and this vergence.

00:51:06.938 --> 00:51:07.378
Well,

00:51:07.438 --> 00:51:09.981
we do know from Legends that he did

00:51:10.061 --> 00:51:10.460
study...

00:51:11.487 --> 00:51:12.548
and did have interactions

00:51:12.608 --> 00:51:13.949
with the witches of both

00:51:14.030 --> 00:51:15.170
Dathomir and I'm sure

00:51:15.250 --> 00:51:16.471
others and his travels

00:51:17.092 --> 00:51:18.532
because he literally that way,

00:51:18.753 --> 00:51:20.273
his life was dedicated to

00:51:20.293 --> 00:51:23.434
the dark science and to the

00:51:23.576 --> 00:51:24.516
old Sith ways.

00:51:25.157 --> 00:51:27.938
So we'll see how that works out for us.

00:51:28.018 --> 00:51:29.199
And if we get a season two.

00:51:29.219 --> 00:51:30.139
Yeah.

00:51:30.260 --> 00:51:31.139
And we already answered the

00:51:31.179 --> 00:51:32.201
second part of kind of like

00:51:32.221 --> 00:51:33.422
that question I had of,

00:51:33.501 --> 00:51:34.541
did the Sith play a part in

00:51:34.561 --> 00:51:35.603
the birth of me and OSHA?

00:51:36.182 --> 00:51:37.003
So we'll jump to the,

00:51:38.047 --> 00:51:40.809
What really set the whole thing off,

00:51:40.949 --> 00:51:42.130
which is we learned that

00:51:42.210 --> 00:51:44.811
Sol killed Anisea and

00:51:45.413 --> 00:51:47.034
finally learns the truth of

00:51:47.074 --> 00:51:48.195
what happened on Brindock.

00:51:49.615 --> 00:51:51.416
And then she uses that rage

00:51:51.936 --> 00:51:53.398
to kill Master Sol before

00:51:53.458 --> 00:51:55.059
Vernestra can arrive to save him.

00:51:56.561 --> 00:51:58.342
So with this basically

00:51:58.402 --> 00:52:01.824
statement slash question,

00:52:03.646 --> 00:52:05.085
We know Mei started her

00:52:05.206 --> 00:52:07.567
quest to kill the Jedi that wronged her.

00:52:08.447 --> 00:52:10.867
And basically, Chimera, the stranger,

00:52:10.947 --> 00:52:13.469
gave her, like,

00:52:13.668 --> 00:52:14.909
you must kill a Jedi

00:52:14.949 --> 00:52:17.650
without using a weapon.

00:52:17.670 --> 00:52:21.650
And fucking Osha come out

00:52:21.690 --> 00:52:22.831
swinging with that shit.

00:52:23.592 --> 00:52:24.192
Yeah, she did.

00:52:24.211 --> 00:52:25.231
She did.

00:52:25.291 --> 00:52:27.512
That was the force choke of force chokes.

00:52:28.197 --> 00:52:29.498
I didn't even put two and

00:52:29.518 --> 00:52:30.599
two together that that was

00:52:30.639 --> 00:52:31.400
even an option.

00:52:32.501 --> 00:52:34.523
I didn't either until she whipped it out.

00:52:35.164 --> 00:52:35.384
Yeah.

00:52:35.423 --> 00:52:36.844
She was hiding it so well

00:52:36.864 --> 00:52:38.405
because she was like, like,

00:52:38.425 --> 00:52:39.106
I don't know if it was

00:52:39.126 --> 00:52:40.268
something that just happened,

00:52:40.327 --> 00:52:41.708
like out of like the pure

00:52:41.869 --> 00:52:43.590
rage that she felt in that moment.

00:52:44.291 --> 00:52:45.231
But when he grabbed this

00:52:45.291 --> 00:52:46.592
throat and I'm looking

00:52:46.632 --> 00:52:48.333
around like the screen,

00:52:48.353 --> 00:52:49.894
like who in the fuck is

00:52:49.974 --> 00:52:51.936
choking master soul here?

00:52:51.956 --> 00:52:52.317
Yeah.

00:52:52.536 --> 00:52:53.717
I thought it was Chimera at first.

00:52:53.737 --> 00:52:54.559
I was like, I did too.

00:52:54.918 --> 00:52:55.079
Yeah.

00:52:55.119 --> 00:52:56.079
I thought he was helping her.

00:52:57.452 --> 00:52:58.411
And then I'm like, oh.

00:52:58.711 --> 00:52:59.253
But no,

00:52:59.313 --> 00:53:00.873
she was having a full-on teenage

00:53:00.932 --> 00:53:01.612
hissy fit,

00:53:01.994 --> 00:53:03.333
choking the shit out of that man.

00:53:03.994 --> 00:53:04.474
Yeah,

00:53:04.554 --> 00:53:06.175
but how about that kyber crystal

00:53:06.195 --> 00:53:06.534
bleeding?

00:53:06.554 --> 00:53:07.615
What'd you think about that?

00:53:07.635 --> 00:53:09.056
Ooh, that was,

00:53:09.576 --> 00:53:10.836
so I was saving that for last.

00:53:11.317 --> 00:53:11.996
Oh, I'm sorry.

00:53:12.876 --> 00:53:14.697
But no, let's just fucking jump into it,

00:53:14.737 --> 00:53:15.538
because that was,

00:53:16.759 --> 00:53:18.398
so we know most Sith use

00:53:18.438 --> 00:53:19.760
synthetic crystals.

00:53:21.994 --> 00:53:22.554
Just period.

00:53:23.335 --> 00:53:25.255
We have only seen a bleeding

00:53:25.315 --> 00:53:27.617
of a kyber crystal in comic.

00:53:27.996 --> 00:53:29.117
And I think Kylo did it.

00:53:30.237 --> 00:53:31.318
I want to say that's correct.

00:53:31.478 --> 00:53:32.057
If I remember.

00:53:32.898 --> 00:53:33.139
Yes.

00:53:34.159 --> 00:53:35.260
And then the only other time

00:53:35.300 --> 00:53:36.539
we've really seen it in

00:53:37.541 --> 00:53:39.101
visual media outside of the

00:53:39.141 --> 00:53:43.342
comic book was in one of the video games.

00:53:44.264 --> 00:53:45.103
Jedi Survivor.

00:53:46.644 --> 00:53:47.105
We see it.

00:53:49.385 --> 00:53:49.626
Yes.

00:53:49.726 --> 00:53:50.626
And the amount of pain.

00:53:52.963 --> 00:53:55.806
anger and emotion that goes

00:53:55.885 --> 00:53:58.307
into actually physically

00:53:58.648 --> 00:54:03.030
bleeding a kyber crystal is

00:54:03.532 --> 00:54:04.592
something to think about in

00:54:04.733 --> 00:54:07.333
this situation and oh by

00:54:07.355 --> 00:54:08.896
the way you have to have it

00:54:08.956 --> 00:54:09.735
you have to have it

00:54:09.956 --> 00:54:11.436
physically in your hand now

00:54:13.719 --> 00:54:15.420
soul's lightsaber broke on

00:54:15.500 --> 00:54:17.342
impact so when she's holding his saber

00:54:18.632 --> 00:54:20.373
It is broke in a kyber

00:54:20.413 --> 00:54:21.753
crystal is actually pushing

00:54:21.853 --> 00:54:24.175
into her hand and she is bleeding into it,

00:54:24.215 --> 00:54:25.396
like physically bleeding

00:54:25.436 --> 00:54:27.217
from her hand into this crystal.

00:54:28.199 --> 00:54:29.820
Combine that with the anger

00:54:29.840 --> 00:54:31.420
and all the other emotions

00:54:31.501 --> 00:54:33.362
she's having and the fact

00:54:33.402 --> 00:54:34.302
that she is at the same

00:54:34.362 --> 00:54:36.224
time force choking the shit

00:54:37.005 --> 00:54:37.985
out of Master Soul.

00:54:38.005 --> 00:54:40.788
I don't think I think it

00:54:40.827 --> 00:54:42.929
takes a lot longer for a

00:54:42.989 --> 00:54:44.090
kyber crystal to actually

00:54:44.130 --> 00:54:45.490
be bled and a lot more.

00:54:47.637 --> 00:54:48.858
she wasn't thinking about it.

00:54:48.878 --> 00:54:52.081
In her anger, she bled that crystal.

00:54:53.302 --> 00:54:54.842
I have heard criticism on

00:54:54.882 --> 00:54:56.003
the other side where they're like, oh,

00:54:56.023 --> 00:54:57.224
it took too long.

00:54:57.264 --> 00:54:59.266
It didn't take long enough.

00:55:01.007 --> 00:55:02.208
When you see it in the comic

00:55:02.228 --> 00:55:03.269
book and other things,

00:55:04.510 --> 00:55:06.532
even when Kylo bled his,

00:55:08.634 --> 00:55:11.336
he was over angry and he

00:55:11.717 --> 00:55:13.699
was... It's a whole thing.

00:55:14.139 --> 00:55:14.659
There's a whole...

00:55:14.659 --> 00:55:17.407
10 page spread of him

00:55:17.467 --> 00:55:19.268
bleeding his crystal in the

00:55:19.309 --> 00:55:21.309
comic book and it's it's

00:55:21.369 --> 00:55:22.289
intense as hell because he

00:55:22.329 --> 00:55:23.490
cracks his with so much

00:55:23.710 --> 00:55:25.711
anger because you can't

00:55:25.751 --> 00:55:27.012
overdo it you can't underdo

00:55:27.072 --> 00:55:28.554
it you know it's got to be

00:55:28.614 --> 00:55:30.735
like just right to bleed a

00:55:30.894 --> 00:55:32.396
crystal see I did

00:55:32.436 --> 00:55:34.856
appreciate that you got it

00:55:34.876 --> 00:55:36.097
was happening as she was

00:55:36.257 --> 00:55:37.318
going through all of the

00:55:37.378 --> 00:55:38.398
things and choking soul

00:55:38.418 --> 00:55:39.840
like I feel like it just

00:55:40.139 --> 00:55:40.760
lined up it was a

00:55:44.146 --> 00:55:45.527
It was like her feelings

00:55:46.068 --> 00:55:47.188
bleeding into that.

00:55:47.369 --> 00:55:48.469
And I thought it was very

00:55:48.568 --> 00:55:51.311
poetic and beautifully done.

00:55:52.371 --> 00:55:53.972
Like the moment the camera

00:55:54.092 --> 00:55:55.733
shifted and you see that

00:55:55.793 --> 00:55:56.693
crystal turn red.

00:55:56.713 --> 00:55:59.954
I was like, holy shit.

00:56:01.596 --> 00:56:04.757
Like, is there in theory wrong?

00:56:05.478 --> 00:56:05.797
Yes.

00:56:06.557 --> 00:56:07.918
But was it fucking beautiful

00:56:07.958 --> 00:56:10.880
to see on screen for the very first time?

00:56:12.820 --> 00:56:13.742
That kind of way.

00:56:14.911 --> 00:56:15.572
It was amazing.

00:56:16.612 --> 00:56:17.052
I will.

00:56:18.333 --> 00:56:18.512
Yeah.

00:56:19.693 --> 00:56:20.793
I'm not mad about it.

00:56:21.434 --> 00:56:22.074
I'm really not.

00:56:22.655 --> 00:56:24.054
In the moment she ignited it.

00:56:24.135 --> 00:56:25.275
Technically it should have blew up.

00:56:26.775 --> 00:56:27.115
But.

00:56:27.135 --> 00:56:30.056
It's Star Wars.

00:56:30.097 --> 00:56:31.878
We're not talking about all that.

00:56:32.717 --> 00:56:33.157
The wind.

00:56:35.498 --> 00:56:36.478
Ideas and theories out.

00:56:36.759 --> 00:56:37.318
The wind here.

00:56:38.500 --> 00:56:39.739
She lit that damn thing.

00:56:39.820 --> 00:56:40.400
It was blue.

00:56:40.780 --> 00:56:42.141
And then that red come out of it.

00:56:44.655 --> 00:56:45.157
That was cool.

00:56:45.657 --> 00:56:48.119
It was beautiful, plain and simple.

00:56:48.460 --> 00:56:50.902
It was beautiful and

00:56:51.161 --> 00:56:53.644
something to behold because

00:56:53.684 --> 00:56:56.407
we had never gotten that before, you know,

00:56:56.467 --> 00:56:59.831
and damn, that was phenomenal.

00:57:00.463 --> 00:57:01.664
And it was interesting.

00:57:01.684 --> 00:57:03.025
I feel like she channeled,

00:57:03.085 --> 00:57:04.447
especially when Sol told her, oh,

00:57:04.487 --> 00:57:05.007
it's okay.

00:57:05.027 --> 00:57:05.987
It's okay.

00:57:06.369 --> 00:57:07.048
Like, I forgive you.

00:57:07.108 --> 00:57:10.552
And it's like that last bit just pushed,

00:57:11.112 --> 00:57:11.391
I think,

00:57:11.431 --> 00:57:13.253
that crystal transformation on the edge.

00:57:13.313 --> 00:57:14.355
I think that was really the

00:57:14.875 --> 00:57:16.215
nail in that coffin, really.

00:57:16.235 --> 00:57:20.159
Because it pissed her off

00:57:20.259 --> 00:57:21.900
more that she forgave him

00:57:21.920 --> 00:57:25.483
or he forgave her on his last breath.

00:57:26.809 --> 00:57:29.170
That, and it's an interesting,

00:57:29.349 --> 00:57:30.670
we talked about this too on

00:57:30.710 --> 00:57:31.190
the pop break.

00:57:31.231 --> 00:57:32.311
We were talking about how

00:57:32.371 --> 00:57:33.550
it's an interesting choice

00:57:34.132 --> 00:57:35.452
that they made was to have

00:57:35.592 --> 00:57:36.813
someone who was so full of

00:57:36.913 --> 00:57:39.974
regrets and sadness.

00:57:40.114 --> 00:57:42.414
And that was the most of the show, guilt,

00:57:42.534 --> 00:57:43.954
very guilt-ridden for what

00:57:43.994 --> 00:57:45.655
happened to be like, no,

00:57:45.775 --> 00:57:47.376
what I did was right.

00:57:48.577 --> 00:57:51.057
And stay on the high ground, if you will.

00:57:52.538 --> 00:57:54.619
So it was an interesting character shift.

00:57:54.639 --> 00:57:54.978
Yeah.

00:57:56.148 --> 00:57:57.329
So I can see why she bled

00:57:57.369 --> 00:57:58.532
into that crystal a little bit.

00:57:58.932 --> 00:57:59.873
Yeah, no, I mean,

00:58:00.474 --> 00:58:01.936
it makes sense when you look at it.

00:58:02.657 --> 00:58:03.599
But you have to look at it

00:58:03.800 --> 00:58:06.362
from an open mind and viewpoint on it.

00:58:06.844 --> 00:58:08.266
You can't just walk in the door and go,

00:58:08.365 --> 00:58:09.909
I'm immediately going to hate this shit.

00:58:10.389 --> 00:58:11.070
And I don't care.

00:58:11.110 --> 00:58:12.112
I'm going to hate it no matter what.

00:58:14.349 --> 00:58:14.548
Yeah,

00:58:14.608 --> 00:58:15.889
I'm just happy we're having we get

00:58:15.989 --> 00:58:16.469
Star Wars.

00:58:16.769 --> 00:58:18.349
We get Star Wars content.

00:58:18.869 --> 00:58:19.530
You and me both.

00:58:20.210 --> 00:58:20.990
You and me both.

00:58:21.271 --> 00:58:23.072
And we got two good Star Wars shows.

00:58:23.431 --> 00:58:23.851
Exactly.

00:58:23.871 --> 00:58:24.552
Like back to back.

00:58:24.632 --> 00:58:26.072
We got Tales of the Sith

00:58:26.952 --> 00:58:29.893
right into Darklight.

00:58:30.534 --> 00:58:31.994
Yeah, I mean, I'm here for it.

00:58:32.135 --> 00:58:32.894
You know,

00:58:32.974 --> 00:58:34.536
anytime there's new Star Wars on TV,

00:58:34.635 --> 00:58:35.536
I'm I'm there.

00:58:36.143 --> 00:58:36.384
Yeah.

00:58:36.623 --> 00:58:37.003
And, you know,

00:58:37.043 --> 00:58:38.824
we can have great discussions, you know,

00:58:38.844 --> 00:58:40.065
and enjoy talking with each

00:58:40.085 --> 00:58:41.246
other and have fun.

00:58:41.905 --> 00:58:42.945
And, you know, and again,

00:58:43.226 --> 00:58:44.347
there's legit criticisms

00:58:44.407 --> 00:58:45.527
out there and that's fine.

00:58:45.567 --> 00:58:46.288
We can have a healthy

00:58:46.327 --> 00:58:47.108
discourse about that.

00:58:47.347 --> 00:58:47.628
Right.

00:58:48.108 --> 00:58:49.009
I think there's just a lot

00:58:49.028 --> 00:58:51.628
of people nitpicked and focused.

00:58:51.690 --> 00:58:52.389
Way too many people

00:58:52.409 --> 00:58:54.010
nitpicked and focused on

00:58:54.050 --> 00:58:55.231
the wrong parts of this.

00:58:55.251 --> 00:58:56.210
Like so many people were mad

00:58:56.231 --> 00:58:57.090
about Kiadi Mundi.

00:58:57.110 --> 00:58:58.331
I was like, come on guys.

00:58:59.025 --> 00:58:59.704
Who cares?

00:58:59.786 --> 00:59:00.905
They changed it by what?

00:59:01.766 --> 00:59:02.567
20 years or something?

00:59:02.867 --> 00:59:04.568
And it was only the only

00:59:05.028 --> 00:59:06.630
information we legit had on

00:59:06.690 --> 00:59:08.291
his age came from a board game.

00:59:08.311 --> 00:59:10.753
Because the Wizards of the

00:59:10.773 --> 00:59:11.353
West Coast game.

00:59:11.393 --> 00:59:11.974
I'm like, really?

00:59:11.994 --> 00:59:12.193
Yeah.

00:59:13.414 --> 00:59:13.695
Really?

00:59:13.715 --> 00:59:15.916
Not losing sleep over Ki-Adi Mundi.

00:59:16.336 --> 00:59:16.856
Yeah.

00:59:16.976 --> 00:59:17.998
And it made sense that he

00:59:18.057 --> 00:59:19.759
was there because he's the

00:59:19.838 --> 00:59:20.699
one that said the Sith

00:59:20.719 --> 00:59:22.521
haven't been around for a millennia.

00:59:23.402 --> 00:59:23.621
Yeah.

00:59:24.731 --> 00:59:27.911
And, you know, again, it's a yes.

00:59:28.472 --> 00:59:29.751
Kelvin brought up a great point.

00:59:31.213 --> 00:59:31.693
Absolutely.

00:59:32.353 --> 00:59:33.172
And I don't know if he was

00:59:33.233 --> 00:59:35.014
around when we first started the show.

00:59:35.554 --> 00:59:36.974
So he may have missed my fun

00:59:37.054 --> 00:59:37.893
fact of the day.

00:59:38.735 --> 00:59:40.094
Fun fact of the day, Kelvin,

00:59:40.114 --> 00:59:42.454
was the Jedi Temple was

00:59:42.574 --> 00:59:44.016
built on top of the Sith

00:59:44.135 --> 00:59:45.376
Shrine of the Depths.

00:59:45.976 --> 00:59:47.177
And it explains how the Jedi

00:59:47.257 --> 00:59:48.476
is linked to the fourth Shrine.

00:59:48.896 --> 00:59:50.358
Was eventually corrupted.

00:59:51.119 --> 00:59:52.440
So your statement there.

00:59:52.481 --> 00:59:54.262
Makes sense with what I said earlier.

00:59:54.302 --> 00:59:55.643
On my fun fact of the day.

00:59:55.664 --> 00:59:58.568
I hope they bring that into canon.

00:59:58.847 --> 01:00:00.228
I think that might be what happens.

01:00:01.490 --> 01:00:02.851
It would make so much sense.

01:00:02.891 --> 01:00:04.474
For that to be brought into canon.

01:00:04.914 --> 01:00:06.835
To explain everything that's happened.

01:00:06.876 --> 01:00:08.557
Through all three trilogies.

01:00:09.498 --> 01:00:10.300
And TV shows.

01:00:10.880 --> 01:00:11.021
Yeah.

01:00:12.168 --> 01:00:13.628
I mean, that would make absolute sense,

01:00:14.248 --> 01:00:14.750
but we'll see.

01:00:15.050 --> 01:00:17.291
We'll see if it, if it happens, but I mean,

01:00:18.090 --> 01:00:19.291
you know, speaking of coverups.

01:00:20.612 --> 01:00:20.913
Yes.

01:00:21.373 --> 01:00:22.393
You want to talk about some

01:00:22.454 --> 01:00:24.375
Jedi mind tricks or in this case,

01:00:24.474 --> 01:00:25.356
Sith mind tricks.

01:00:25.715 --> 01:00:26.476
Let's go for it.

01:00:27.077 --> 01:00:30.219
So we see, so they,

01:00:30.478 --> 01:00:32.760
they escape souls dead for

01:00:32.800 --> 01:00:34.001
Nestor has arrived.

01:00:34.780 --> 01:00:36.661
Everybody runs off to the,

01:00:37.202 --> 01:00:38.342
the center of the virgins,

01:00:38.402 --> 01:00:39.523
which I think is the tree.

01:00:41.800 --> 01:00:44.742
And the decision is made

01:00:44.782 --> 01:00:45.862
that May will go with the

01:00:45.922 --> 01:00:48.184
Jedi and Osha will go with

01:00:48.284 --> 01:00:49.766
Chimera to become his

01:00:50.126 --> 01:00:51.507
acolyte or his apprentice.

01:00:52.706 --> 01:00:55.548
And we see them doing their

01:00:55.588 --> 01:00:59.990
little little thing.

01:01:00.030 --> 01:01:02.032
They say when they were children,

01:01:02.092 --> 01:01:04.393
the I am you, you are me.

01:01:04.793 --> 01:01:05.775
We're a big family.

01:01:05.795 --> 01:01:07.054
You know, yay.

01:01:07.135 --> 01:01:08.175
Kumbaya thing they do.

01:01:09.211 --> 01:01:12.052
And then you get that back-facing camera,

01:01:12.172 --> 01:01:13.713
or the camera facing the back of Chimera,

01:01:13.733 --> 01:01:15.934
and he's just like, and no more.

01:01:15.954 --> 01:01:18.275
I was like, bro.

01:01:18.735 --> 01:01:22.597
He just pulled a Ben Kenobi,

01:01:22.637 --> 01:01:24.358
because he was going by Ben at the time,

01:01:25.458 --> 01:01:27.858
and completely wiped her mind.

01:01:29.239 --> 01:01:31.059
And then, dude,

01:01:31.360 --> 01:01:33.621
I was... That shit was like,

01:01:34.001 --> 01:01:35.262
they just met back up.

01:01:35.302 --> 01:01:37.963
They just forgave each other for their

01:01:40.735 --> 01:01:42.155
For everything, basically.

01:01:42.195 --> 01:01:43.577
It made no sense to me.

01:01:44.237 --> 01:01:46.097
It made no sense to me.

01:01:46.637 --> 01:01:49.539
But... It does play into the

01:01:50.059 --> 01:01:51.039
post on Tatooine.

01:01:51.619 --> 01:01:52.300
This is true.

01:01:53.460 --> 01:01:55.320
But that made no sense to me.

01:01:55.460 --> 01:01:55.940
Because I'm like,

01:01:56.081 --> 01:01:57.221
this poor girl has drawn

01:01:57.260 --> 01:01:58.641
the short end of the stick.

01:01:59.742 --> 01:02:00.822
For eight episodes.

01:02:02.463 --> 01:02:03.443
I mean, to be fair,

01:02:03.762 --> 01:02:04.903
she did kill Master Indara.

01:02:05.896 --> 01:02:08.097
you know you know hey r.i.p

01:02:08.659 --> 01:02:10.099
r.i.p to master andara she

01:02:10.119 --> 01:02:11.402
lasted all of 10 minutes

01:02:12.161 --> 01:02:14.445
total true how much did

01:02:14.505 --> 01:02:17.086
carrie ann moss make for

01:02:17.126 --> 01:02:18.829
this show for 10 minutes

01:02:18.849 --> 01:02:20.590
worth of work probably for

01:02:20.610 --> 01:02:22.393
the flashbacks that's

01:02:22.413 --> 01:02:23.534
probably why that's

01:02:23.554 --> 01:02:24.195
probably what she got paid

01:02:24.215 --> 01:02:25.876
for well she was on the 10

01:02:25.876 --> 01:02:27.918
minutes total this is maybe

01:02:27.918 --> 01:02:29.179
12 being if I'm being generous

01:02:31.360 --> 01:02:32.541
get on her for that paycheck

01:02:32.581 --> 01:02:34.262
man I will that and just

01:02:34.302 --> 01:02:35.822
the fact that even if it's

01:02:35.862 --> 01:02:37.284
not like a huge part you're

01:02:37.304 --> 01:02:38.543
not the main at least you

01:02:38.563 --> 01:02:39.304
can say you were in star

01:02:39.324 --> 01:02:41.465
wars yeah some people do

01:02:41.505 --> 01:02:42.626
that they'll take they're

01:02:42.646 --> 01:02:43.585
like you know I just wanted

01:02:43.606 --> 01:02:44.706
to be in it doesn't matter

01:02:44.947 --> 01:02:45.686
there's a list of

01:02:45.726 --> 01:02:46.827
celebrities who have been

01:02:47.527 --> 01:02:48.628
stormtroopers their face

01:02:48.648 --> 01:02:49.949
were never seen they never

01:02:50.009 --> 01:02:51.188
received any type of credit

01:02:51.289 --> 01:02:52.869
for it they didn't get paid

01:02:53.449 --> 01:02:54.311
they just wanted to be a

01:02:54.451 --> 01:02:57.092
stormtrooper on in star wars

01:02:58.159 --> 01:02:59.199
And I mean, say they did it.

01:02:59.601 --> 01:02:59.940
Exactly.

01:02:59.981 --> 01:03:01.001
Just to even say, you know,

01:03:01.021 --> 01:03:02.001
I was a Jedi master.

01:03:02.942 --> 01:03:03.481
Was I the main?

01:03:03.842 --> 01:03:05.463
No, but I'm a Jedi master.

01:03:05.643 --> 01:03:07.844
And she even got to do that hand to hand,

01:03:08.224 --> 01:03:09.664
get that Trinity energy there.

01:03:09.704 --> 01:03:10.545
She did.

01:03:10.684 --> 01:03:11.045
She did.

01:03:11.065 --> 01:03:12.045
And I'm not mad.

01:03:12.065 --> 01:03:12.826
No, no.

01:03:13.405 --> 01:03:14.306
It was worth it.

01:03:14.306 --> 01:03:16.027
10 minutes for me to see her

01:03:16.106 --> 01:03:17.407
in something that wasn't

01:03:17.467 --> 01:03:20.028
related to whatever that

01:03:20.068 --> 01:03:21.849
last matrix movie was.

01:03:21.869 --> 01:03:22.610
Cause it was bad.

01:03:23.458 --> 01:03:24.978
Yeah, it was pretty rough.

01:03:25.018 --> 01:03:26.179
I don't even include it.

01:03:26.239 --> 01:03:27.880
I'm like, oh, you mean the trilogy?

01:03:29.440 --> 01:03:30.280
No, we don't talk about that.

01:03:30.300 --> 01:03:31.840
I just go straight to the Animatrix.

01:03:32.300 --> 01:03:32.940
If I don't go for it,

01:03:32.960 --> 01:03:33.940
it's like first movie and

01:03:33.981 --> 01:03:35.081
then the Animatrix for me.

01:03:35.382 --> 01:03:37.981
Or my Matrix for me.

01:03:38.001 --> 01:03:40.362
The Animatrix is outstanding.

01:03:41.583 --> 01:03:41.862
It is.

01:03:42.123 --> 01:03:42.742
It really is.

01:03:42.762 --> 01:03:43.902
It's underrated as hell.

01:03:44.543 --> 01:03:45.123
Absolutely.

01:03:45.164 --> 01:03:45.923
I found it on VHS.

01:03:46.889 --> 01:03:47.349
Did you?

01:03:47.369 --> 01:03:48.329
I did.

01:03:48.349 --> 01:03:48.429
Nice.

01:03:48.688 --> 01:03:50.030
I'm so excited about it.

01:03:50.050 --> 01:03:50.610
I'm going to actually

01:03:50.650 --> 01:03:51.530
probably watch it after this.

01:03:51.590 --> 01:03:53.550
So yeah, it's with Seth.

01:03:53.931 --> 01:03:55.110
It's going to be fun.

01:03:55.690 --> 01:03:56.431
That's going to be awesome.

01:03:57.231 --> 01:03:57.530
Yeah,

01:03:57.610 --> 01:04:01.931
but we know Vernestra arrives and she

01:04:01.992 --> 01:04:03.552
finds Sol already dead.

01:04:05.273 --> 01:04:09.213
Basically, May is the only person there.

01:04:10.338 --> 01:04:11.639
to take the bullets and she

01:04:11.679 --> 01:04:12.960
has no clue what's going on.

01:04:12.981 --> 01:04:13.561
She don't even know how to,

01:04:13.681 --> 01:04:15.163
what her damn name is at this moment.

01:04:15.202 --> 01:04:15.603
And I'm like,

01:04:15.643 --> 01:04:16.943
they all could have fled together.

01:04:17.445 --> 01:04:17.965
They could have.

01:04:18.425 --> 01:04:19.146
So it was,

01:04:19.806 --> 01:04:21.547
it was a weird decision for them to,

01:04:21.568 --> 01:04:24.170
to leave her there.

01:04:24.190 --> 01:04:25.170
And you're,

01:04:25.492 --> 01:04:27.393
you're leaving a loose end that

01:04:27.873 --> 01:04:29.375
with someone more powerful

01:04:29.434 --> 01:04:31.076
can always find that loose end.

01:04:31.657 --> 01:04:32.056
Yes.

01:04:32.137 --> 01:04:32.958
The last one.

01:04:33.038 --> 01:04:33.217
Yes.

01:04:33.358 --> 01:04:33.597
Yes.

01:04:35.295 --> 01:04:37.717
yes and I i just I think

01:04:37.797 --> 01:04:39.699
that you're leaving a loose

01:04:39.739 --> 01:04:41.639
end free and untethered to

01:04:41.679 --> 01:04:42.800
the world well and it was

01:04:42.840 --> 01:04:44.121
intentionally done but they

01:04:44.141 --> 01:04:45.362
were like we will leave you

01:04:45.483 --> 01:04:48.023
here and you will be

01:04:48.605 --> 01:04:50.525
basically they expected her

01:04:50.585 --> 01:04:52.646
to take the blame for all

01:04:52.686 --> 01:04:54.347
this stuff like you just

01:04:54.407 --> 01:04:56.590
sold your sister out again

01:04:56.869 --> 01:04:59.952
again but then vernestra is

01:04:59.992 --> 01:05:02.873
like nah stand by hold my beer

01:05:04.226 --> 01:05:04.826
We got this.

01:05:04.846 --> 01:05:06.146
You don't remember shit, do you?

01:05:06.166 --> 01:05:08.489
No, I don't know nothing.

01:05:09.630 --> 01:05:09.949
Bet.

01:05:10.630 --> 01:05:11.811
Master Soul did it all.

01:05:13.233 --> 01:05:15.213
He's been pulling the wool

01:05:15.293 --> 01:05:16.335
over everybody's eyes.

01:05:16.414 --> 01:05:18.096
He concocted this own thing.

01:05:18.115 --> 01:05:18.996
He killed Jedi.

01:05:19.016 --> 01:05:20.157
He's killed all these people.

01:05:21.398 --> 01:05:22.980
He made a lot of bad decisions.

01:05:25.001 --> 01:05:28.003
But then she still gave him a Jedi burial.

01:05:29.644 --> 01:05:30.724
A warrior's burial.

01:05:31.106 --> 01:05:31.746
That's her guilt.

01:05:33.516 --> 01:05:34.735
it is and it's her guilt to

01:05:34.795 --> 01:05:36.157
live with because who knows

01:05:36.217 --> 01:05:39.557
what else you know exactly

01:05:39.617 --> 01:05:40.637
what else is she covered

01:05:40.898 --> 01:05:42.117
now I really want to know

01:05:42.137 --> 01:05:44.878
so the question is yeah if

01:05:44.918 --> 01:05:46.360
we do get a season two do

01:05:46.380 --> 01:05:47.679
we get carrie and boss to

01:05:47.739 --> 01:05:49.960
come back play and master

01:05:50.041 --> 01:05:51.240
indara and what was

01:05:51.320 --> 01:05:53.041
originally happening that

01:05:53.061 --> 01:05:54.342
was originally covered up

01:05:54.422 --> 01:05:55.661
because we really don't see

01:05:55.702 --> 01:05:56.742
what originally happened

01:05:56.782 --> 01:05:57.742
you know what originally

01:05:57.782 --> 01:06:00.242
was covered up and how

01:06:00.443 --> 01:06:01.864
everybody actually dies

01:06:03.237 --> 01:06:03.918
We still don't know.

01:06:06.619 --> 01:06:07.880
I think that we will get a

01:06:07.900 --> 01:06:10.762
cameo from her because they

01:06:10.802 --> 01:06:14.306
have to connect and Vern

01:06:14.346 --> 01:06:15.947
has to know something.

01:06:16.186 --> 01:06:17.288
I feel like Master Dara is

01:06:17.307 --> 01:06:17.807
going to show up.

01:06:17.847 --> 01:06:19.710
She's going to connect the

01:06:19.949 --> 01:06:20.831
two arcs together,

01:06:20.851 --> 01:06:22.030
but I don't think she'll

01:06:22.070 --> 01:06:23.932
have a larger part.

01:06:24.612 --> 01:06:25.693
I think it's going to be all Vern.

01:06:25.773 --> 01:06:28.396
It's going to be all Vern

01:06:28.456 --> 01:06:29.918
and whoever Vern recruits

01:06:31.590 --> 01:06:32.871
to help with this coverup.

01:06:33.570 --> 01:06:34.690
If she recruits anybody,

01:06:34.751 --> 01:06:35.692
she's really... Was

01:06:35.771 --> 01:06:37.731
Vernestra the Grand Master at this time?

01:06:37.952 --> 01:06:38.952
Or was she just a master?

01:06:38.972 --> 01:06:40.293
I think she was a master.

01:06:40.313 --> 01:06:41.974
Because Yoda is alive at this time,

01:06:42.014 --> 01:06:43.155
so he would be the Grand

01:06:43.175 --> 01:06:44.014
Master because he was the

01:06:44.074 --> 01:06:46.135
Grand Master for quite a while.

01:06:47.932 --> 01:06:49.974
I think she would be a contender for it.

01:06:50.675 --> 01:06:51.875
But I kind of look at her as

01:06:51.914 --> 01:06:53.195
maybe a Mace Windu type

01:06:53.215 --> 01:06:55.076
where she's a more senior

01:06:55.096 --> 01:06:56.297
member of the council and

01:06:56.456 --> 01:06:57.336
she's calling the shots.

01:06:57.797 --> 01:07:00.659
She was the youngest Padawan

01:07:00.679 --> 01:07:02.018
to ever become a master at 16.

01:07:02.018 --> 01:07:05.501
She's a prodigy.

01:07:05.621 --> 01:07:06.940
It's interesting that they

01:07:06.960 --> 01:07:07.961
went with her for this.

01:07:08.001 --> 01:07:08.802
Her legends is legendary.

01:07:08.822 --> 01:07:09.983
She was legit as hell.

01:07:16.143 --> 01:07:17.184
And the fact that they kind

01:07:17.204 --> 01:07:20.525
of made her the escape goat type.

01:07:21.106 --> 01:07:21.945
I'm like, come on, dude,

01:07:21.965 --> 01:07:23.266
that's not Renestra at all.

01:07:23.827 --> 01:07:25.367
But I'm wondering if we're

01:07:25.387 --> 01:07:27.188
going to get another project, whether,

01:07:27.367 --> 01:07:28.608
because I want to say

01:07:28.628 --> 01:07:29.548
there's another animated

01:07:29.588 --> 01:07:30.568
series due to come out.

01:07:31.509 --> 01:07:32.090
We don't know.

01:07:32.110 --> 01:07:33.969
We get a legends of the high Republic.

01:07:34.030 --> 01:07:34.329
Yes.

01:07:34.731 --> 01:07:35.731
That would be dope as hell.

01:07:36.411 --> 01:07:37.130
I think we're going to get

01:07:37.210 --> 01:07:39.612
some kind of backstory to explain,

01:07:39.632 --> 01:07:41.353
you know,

01:07:42.472 --> 01:07:44.193
what led her to get to this point.

01:07:45.791 --> 01:07:46.130
Also,

01:07:46.170 --> 01:07:47.311
we got to find out what her

01:07:47.351 --> 01:07:48.711
connection is to Chimera.

01:07:51.273 --> 01:07:53.474
I think because he's got the

01:07:53.514 --> 01:07:54.795
scars of a whip.

01:07:55.974 --> 01:07:56.974
The only person that has a

01:07:57.014 --> 01:07:57.956
whip in the whole Jedi

01:07:58.016 --> 01:07:59.856
universe is Vernestra.

01:08:00.677 --> 01:08:00.856
Yeah.

01:08:01.657 --> 01:08:02.498
Unless it's lightning.

01:08:03.958 --> 01:08:04.918
It could be lightning as well.

01:08:05.398 --> 01:08:05.878
Yeah.

01:08:07.199 --> 01:08:08.460
Yeah.

01:08:08.519 --> 01:08:08.840
I mean,

01:08:08.860 --> 01:08:10.360
we know Vernestra never fell to the

01:08:10.400 --> 01:08:11.001
dark side.

01:08:12.958 --> 01:08:14.498
So, you know,

01:08:14.757 --> 01:08:16.198
or or has she not embraced

01:08:16.219 --> 01:08:18.198
her darkness like souls?

01:08:18.479 --> 01:08:18.679
Yeah.

01:08:19.760 --> 01:08:22.199
Soul was definitely conflicted with that.

01:08:22.220 --> 01:08:26.421
I mean, he he very much like Mace Windu.

01:08:27.381 --> 01:08:28.801
Mace Windu walked a very

01:08:28.902 --> 01:08:30.782
fine line between the light and the dark.

01:08:32.162 --> 01:08:36.243
Which is why he was so respected by Yoda,

01:08:36.262 --> 01:08:37.002
and that's why he was the

01:08:37.043 --> 01:08:38.944
number two to Yoda.

01:08:40.247 --> 01:08:41.886
Because Yoda,

01:08:43.307 --> 01:08:44.688
he says it in Legends that

01:08:45.347 --> 01:08:47.648
that's why he not only respects him,

01:08:47.667 --> 01:08:49.509
but he also fears him as well.

01:08:51.168 --> 01:08:51.368
I mean,

01:08:51.389 --> 01:08:52.868
that's why he really was the only

01:08:52.988 --> 01:08:53.849
one who could take out

01:08:54.930 --> 01:08:57.050
Palpatine if Anakin had interfered.

01:08:57.090 --> 01:08:57.550
He had him.

01:08:58.189 --> 01:08:58.350
Oh, yeah.

01:08:58.369 --> 01:08:58.810
He was done.

01:08:59.149 --> 01:08:59.590
He had him.

01:08:59.610 --> 01:09:00.070
He was done.

01:09:01.730 --> 01:09:02.230
Oh, Annie.

01:09:02.251 --> 01:09:03.451
Oh, Annie.

01:09:03.530 --> 01:09:05.110
That poor lost boy.

01:09:05.131 --> 01:09:06.212
Exactly.

01:09:06.712 --> 01:09:07.231
He really was...

01:09:08.805 --> 01:09:11.407
a boy still at heart, still a kid.

01:09:11.967 --> 01:09:12.247
True.

01:09:12.688 --> 01:09:13.347
This is true.

01:09:13.387 --> 01:09:14.889
So what do you, I guess,

01:09:15.128 --> 01:09:16.590
how would you think about

01:09:16.649 --> 01:09:17.750
Vern as a master?

01:09:17.770 --> 01:09:18.369
I guess,

01:09:18.390 --> 01:09:19.470
what do you picture when you think

01:09:19.511 --> 01:09:20.570
about her and kind of, I mean,

01:09:20.610 --> 01:09:22.171
kind of being her apprentice,

01:09:22.192 --> 01:09:22.971
like what kind of master do

01:09:23.011 --> 01:09:23.752
you think she was?

01:09:23.832 --> 01:09:24.832
Never had a,

01:09:27.014 --> 01:09:28.854
a good relationship per se

01:09:28.914 --> 01:09:30.614
with her Padawans.

01:09:31.895 --> 01:09:33.997
Like she took on like the, the,

01:09:35.185 --> 01:09:36.086
The Impossibles.

01:09:36.386 --> 01:09:37.086
I guess you could say.

01:09:37.105 --> 01:09:38.067
Like on their last.

01:09:40.529 --> 01:09:40.748
Like.

01:09:42.310 --> 01:09:43.150
Especially if you go back.

01:09:43.211 --> 01:09:44.131
And you start reading some

01:09:44.171 --> 01:09:45.032
hard background.

01:09:45.051 --> 01:09:47.413
Like she took some broken Padawans.

01:09:48.755 --> 01:09:49.215
And some of them.

01:09:49.234 --> 01:09:49.796
You know.

01:09:50.376 --> 01:09:51.377
One I think turned out good.

01:09:51.417 --> 01:09:52.197
And I think the other one

01:09:52.237 --> 01:09:53.557
actually fell to the dark side.

01:09:54.779 --> 01:09:55.619
If I remember right.

01:09:56.780 --> 01:09:58.122
So is that what we're getting here?

01:09:58.141 --> 01:09:59.341
I can't say for sure.

01:09:59.983 --> 01:10:00.582
There's not enough.

01:10:00.802 --> 01:10:01.104
You know.

01:10:02.345 --> 01:10:03.985
Story here for us to go off of.

01:10:05.346 --> 01:10:06.929
so I mean it could maybe

01:10:06.969 --> 01:10:09.610
just after enough time she

01:10:09.631 --> 01:10:10.511
maybe just has this bad

01:10:10.532 --> 01:10:11.372
track because we do know

01:10:11.393 --> 01:10:12.753
they had a forced

01:10:12.814 --> 01:10:13.914
connection when he got when

01:10:13.954 --> 01:10:15.917
she got off her plane her

01:10:16.037 --> 01:10:17.097
uh intergalactic

01:10:17.158 --> 01:10:20.362
starfighter so it's a good

01:10:20.442 --> 01:10:21.603
question and I think

01:10:21.643 --> 01:10:24.765
there's we need that

01:10:24.905 --> 01:10:26.768
answered if we get a season two

01:10:27.681 --> 01:10:28.622
I think they're going to.

01:10:28.842 --> 01:10:29.524
They have to.

01:10:30.083 --> 01:10:31.045
They've got to touch on it.

01:10:31.064 --> 01:10:31.886
They have to.

01:10:32.386 --> 01:10:33.226
And while they're at it,

01:10:33.287 --> 01:10:34.007
they could touch on what

01:10:34.047 --> 01:10:35.789
the hell was Basil's problem.

01:10:36.610 --> 01:10:37.371
Darth Basil.

01:10:38.231 --> 01:10:40.394
He has to be a fucking plant

01:10:40.413 --> 01:10:41.475
from the dark side.

01:10:42.435 --> 01:10:43.136
This dude.

01:10:44.297 --> 01:10:45.538
Adorable little creature.

01:10:46.460 --> 01:10:48.641
But damn, he has some serious issues.

01:10:49.103 --> 01:10:51.005
Bill hates Basil with a passion.

01:10:51.716 --> 01:10:53.658
He has every right to hate Basil.

01:10:53.677 --> 01:10:55.720
Because what the hell was Basil's problem?

01:10:55.739 --> 01:10:57.020
What did Sol do to him?

01:10:57.921 --> 01:11:01.045
What did the Jedi... Period.

01:11:01.445 --> 01:11:02.806
Why did he have this weird

01:11:04.288 --> 01:11:05.649
connection with both May

01:11:05.770 --> 01:11:06.890
and Osha like that?

01:11:08.273 --> 01:11:09.354
Maybe that's the virgins

01:11:09.373 --> 01:11:10.135
that work for that.

01:11:10.850 --> 01:11:12.171
Possibly because that was

01:11:12.192 --> 01:11:13.192
just like this weird thing.

01:11:13.231 --> 01:11:14.853
Basil's like, oh, cool.

01:11:15.052 --> 01:11:16.654
And then all of a sudden it's like, oh,

01:11:16.673 --> 01:11:17.694
you're trying to hurt her.

01:11:17.713 --> 01:11:21.536
So there's an account on

01:11:21.676 --> 01:11:22.896
Instagram that I follow.

01:11:23.056 --> 01:11:25.358
It's comedian is Charlie Hopkinson.

01:11:25.717 --> 01:11:26.779
And he does these.

01:11:26.798 --> 01:11:27.998
I don't know if you've heard about him,

01:11:28.019 --> 01:11:28.219
Jeff.

01:11:28.399 --> 01:11:29.319
If not, I'll send it to you.

01:11:30.079 --> 01:11:32.560
but he does these ai

01:11:32.761 --> 01:11:33.761
versions so it's him maybe

01:11:33.862 --> 01:11:35.722
ai imposes like kenobi uh

01:11:36.762 --> 01:11:38.744
qui-gon I don't follow him

01:11:38.765 --> 01:11:39.364
but I think I know what

01:11:39.385 --> 01:11:40.045
you're talking about send

01:11:40.064 --> 01:11:40.845
me the link though after

01:11:40.865 --> 01:11:41.746
this I'll send you the link

01:11:41.985 --> 01:11:43.987
and they they poke fun at

01:11:44.027 --> 01:11:45.908
different star wars content

01:11:45.967 --> 01:11:46.548
but it's like they're

01:11:46.588 --> 01:11:47.448
reviewing it from the

01:11:47.488 --> 01:11:48.909
perspective of kenobi

01:11:49.130 --> 01:11:51.030
qui-gon and and it's like yeah

01:11:51.490 --> 01:11:51.890
You've seen it.

01:11:52.192 --> 01:11:52.412
Yeah.

01:11:52.572 --> 01:11:53.212
I've seen it,

01:11:53.231 --> 01:11:54.453
but I didn't know they had an

01:11:54.573 --> 01:11:55.814
actual like.

01:11:56.073 --> 01:11:57.715
They do it regularly for all

01:11:57.734 --> 01:11:58.636
the Star Wars shows.

01:11:58.716 --> 01:11:59.515
And then he actually does

01:11:59.615 --> 01:12:01.716
one for House of the Dragon.

01:12:02.198 --> 01:12:05.420
So it's Tyrion, Ned Stark's head.

01:12:05.439 --> 01:12:06.921
Nice.

01:12:07.220 --> 01:12:07.341
Yeah.

01:12:09.001 --> 01:12:09.662
John Snow.

01:12:09.782 --> 01:12:11.181
And then they also do Lord of the Rings.

01:12:11.202 --> 01:12:12.743
I know what is exactly what

01:12:12.783 --> 01:12:14.462
I'm doing after this podcast.

01:12:14.582 --> 01:12:16.764
I straight up just binge, but they,

01:12:16.863 --> 01:12:17.743
they've done every single

01:12:17.764 --> 01:12:18.904
star war show that's come

01:12:18.965 --> 01:12:19.965
out and it's hilarious.

01:12:20.244 --> 01:12:21.625
But Darth Basil is their theory.

01:12:21.645 --> 01:12:22.746
They're like, he's a Sith.

01:12:23.246 --> 01:12:24.786
And you know, it's,

01:12:24.886 --> 01:12:27.646
it's all science point to that, you know,

01:12:27.667 --> 01:12:29.268
cause he did those last two

01:12:29.347 --> 01:12:31.547
episodes look kind of like lost his shit.

01:12:31.627 --> 01:12:32.208
And it was like, no,

01:12:32.229 --> 01:12:33.389
you're not hurting these girls.

01:12:33.988 --> 01:12:34.668
I don't know if he was just

01:12:34.689 --> 01:12:35.449
trying to protect them

01:12:35.470 --> 01:12:36.850
because he felt like they were children.

01:12:37.953 --> 01:12:39.534
Or like he knew what they

01:12:39.555 --> 01:12:41.296
were doing was wrong.

01:12:41.615 --> 01:12:42.716
I'll send it to you too, Kelvin.

01:12:43.597 --> 01:12:44.938
It is hilarious because the

01:12:44.957 --> 01:12:46.118
head's just like, hi,

01:12:46.179 --> 01:12:47.100
and it's just talking.

01:12:47.460 --> 01:12:47.800
It's just,

01:12:47.920 --> 01:12:49.820
it's so random and it cracks me up.

01:12:50.240 --> 01:12:52.563
But their theories with Darth Basil,

01:12:52.582 --> 01:12:53.682
they were talking about, you know, well,

01:12:53.743 --> 01:12:54.884
the dark side has all these,

01:12:55.024 --> 01:12:55.564
they were talking about

01:12:55.585 --> 01:12:57.586
Pelagos creeping and they're like, well,

01:12:57.645 --> 01:12:59.466
Darth Basil has this house at the end of

01:13:00.871 --> 01:13:01.931
are hilarious the dark side

01:13:01.952 --> 01:13:04.672
has cookies yes it is it is

01:13:04.712 --> 01:13:05.372
good stuff all of a sudden

01:13:05.393 --> 01:13:06.314
it's at both y'all it is

01:13:06.354 --> 01:13:09.154
hilarious and um but yeah

01:13:09.194 --> 01:13:10.695
basil basil you know at

01:13:10.775 --> 01:13:11.996
first I wondered if he was

01:13:12.055 --> 01:13:13.457
just a plot device in a way

01:13:13.476 --> 01:13:17.238
to sell merch you know

01:13:17.259 --> 01:13:17.878
because you always have to

01:13:17.899 --> 01:13:18.658
have a cute star wars

01:13:18.698 --> 01:13:20.420
creature it's true but then

01:13:20.460 --> 01:13:21.421
I feel like the little

01:13:22.280 --> 01:13:24.942
little elephant elephant

01:13:25.002 --> 01:13:27.103
yeah that but I'm like

01:13:27.143 --> 01:13:28.144
basil stole that cake

01:13:29.011 --> 01:13:30.391
He did.

01:13:30.431 --> 01:13:31.412
I'm just like, I don't know.

01:13:31.431 --> 01:13:33.453
I haven't seen any Darth Basil toys.

01:13:33.672 --> 01:13:35.474
I'm just going to call them Darth Basil.

01:13:35.594 --> 01:13:38.355
None of those have came out yet either.

01:13:38.376 --> 01:13:40.096
They're still on pre-order.

01:13:40.596 --> 01:13:42.537
The Pops are, I think,

01:13:42.618 --> 01:13:44.059
finally about to ship.

01:13:44.078 --> 01:13:44.979
That's cool.

01:13:46.460 --> 01:13:47.621
because yeah so because

01:13:47.780 --> 01:13:48.640
you're right I have not

01:13:48.661 --> 01:13:49.601
seen any merch yeah because

01:13:49.641 --> 01:13:50.822
I've seen them all all up

01:13:50.841 --> 01:13:52.523
for pre-order on amazon but

01:13:52.863 --> 01:13:53.944
none of them are saying

01:13:54.024 --> 01:13:55.625
ready to ship there's still

01:13:55.645 --> 01:13:56.984
some ahsoka figures out

01:13:57.024 --> 01:13:58.046
there from the ahsoka

01:13:58.086 --> 01:13:58.926
series that are still

01:13:58.985 --> 01:14:01.487
pre-order yeah so I don't

01:14:01.506 --> 01:14:02.608
know what hasbro is doing

01:14:02.648 --> 01:14:04.248
but come on hasbro get

01:14:04.288 --> 01:14:07.310
together exactly darth is

01:14:07.350 --> 01:14:08.451
darth basil at work you know

01:14:09.240 --> 01:14:10.542
It has to be Darth Basil,

01:14:10.582 --> 01:14:12.023
that little bastard, man.

01:14:12.984 --> 01:14:13.984
So let's talk about these

01:14:14.064 --> 01:14:15.206
special appearances.

01:14:15.786 --> 01:14:16.306
Well, actually,

01:14:16.327 --> 01:14:17.167
we technically already

01:14:17.186 --> 01:14:19.088
talked about Darth Plagueis and Yoda.

01:14:19.109 --> 01:14:20.789
The ending when she comes

01:14:20.829 --> 01:14:22.470
into Yoda's room was really

01:14:22.511 --> 01:14:23.152
freaking cool.

01:14:24.153 --> 01:14:24.752
I liked that.

01:14:24.893 --> 01:14:26.173
Although I do want to add

01:14:26.213 --> 01:14:27.255
for Darth Plagueis, though,

01:14:27.295 --> 01:14:29.356
that I do appreciate he looks like a mun.

01:14:29.957 --> 01:14:30.296
He does.

01:14:30.377 --> 01:14:31.518
He's a shady looking mun.

01:14:31.597 --> 01:14:32.979
But I'm like, I'm glad they kept that.

01:14:33.060 --> 01:14:34.159
I know people were harping

01:14:34.199 --> 01:14:35.060
about that when he was 15.

01:14:35.060 --> 01:14:37.143
I'm like, again, that's legends, though.

01:14:37.716 --> 01:14:37.917
Yeah.

01:14:38.537 --> 01:14:39.260
And there's nothing that

01:14:39.279 --> 01:14:40.400
says he could not be,

01:14:40.681 --> 01:14:41.823
we don't know that much

01:14:42.043 --> 01:14:43.686
about the mons to know, like,

01:14:44.889 --> 01:14:46.131
are they like Yoda?

01:14:47.235 --> 01:14:48.636
where they really don't

01:14:48.676 --> 01:14:50.796
mature until they're in

01:14:50.896 --> 01:14:51.896
well into their hundreds.

01:14:52.278 --> 01:14:52.457
Yeah.

01:14:52.677 --> 01:14:53.337
Two hundreds.

01:14:54.018 --> 01:14:54.917
And his appearance.

01:14:54.978 --> 01:14:55.217
I mean,

01:14:55.257 --> 01:14:58.099
if he's manipulating dark force energy,

01:14:58.118 --> 01:14:58.279
I mean,

01:14:58.298 --> 01:15:00.659
that's going to take a toll on you

01:15:00.680 --> 01:15:01.699
if you're experimenting.

01:15:01.779 --> 01:15:04.100
So, I mean, cause we had the months in the,

01:15:04.261 --> 01:15:06.162
in the, in the, the prequel trilogy from,

01:15:06.221 --> 01:15:08.882
I think from what I, or no clone wars.

01:15:09.722 --> 01:15:11.342
They brought up the months as well.

01:15:11.382 --> 01:15:12.644
So, and they look a little,

01:15:12.663 --> 01:15:13.344
they look different.

01:15:13.583 --> 01:15:13.764
Well,

01:15:13.844 --> 01:15:16.426
he was the head of the the banking plan,

01:15:16.445 --> 01:15:17.287
I think, at one time.

01:15:17.306 --> 01:15:17.707
Yep.

01:15:18.307 --> 01:15:19.127
Because he was doing that.

01:15:19.287 --> 01:15:20.668
He was the head of the banking clan.

01:15:20.770 --> 01:15:21.470
And oh, by the way,

01:15:21.510 --> 01:15:22.730
he was a Sith Lord by night.

01:15:23.591 --> 01:15:25.073
So it's not maybe he was

01:15:25.153 --> 01:15:28.576
still a young man coming up in the world.

01:15:30.296 --> 01:15:31.818
And this was kind of like him,

01:15:32.037 --> 01:15:33.259
like observing,

01:15:33.338 --> 01:15:34.720
like what it is to really

01:15:34.760 --> 01:15:37.743
be the rule of two, you know?

01:15:38.983 --> 01:15:39.384
Who knows?

01:15:39.875 --> 01:15:40.576
Who knows?

01:15:40.595 --> 01:15:41.636
You mess with the dark side,

01:15:42.237 --> 01:15:43.358
it's going to take its toll on you.

01:15:43.957 --> 01:15:44.939
We can't all look like Manny

01:15:44.958 --> 01:15:46.720
Jacinto messing with the dark side.

01:15:48.280 --> 01:15:48.881
He's a one-off.

01:15:49.221 --> 01:15:50.243
He is definitely a one-off.

01:15:50.932 --> 01:15:51.393
Bless you.

01:15:51.533 --> 01:15:52.694
Bless you, Leslie Hedlund.

01:15:53.234 --> 01:15:53.573
Thank you.

01:15:53.613 --> 01:15:54.515
She knew what she was doing.

01:15:55.335 --> 01:15:57.456
We need the female viewers.

01:15:57.815 --> 01:15:59.117
We need the female viewers.

01:15:59.216 --> 01:16:00.016
How do we do that?

01:16:00.037 --> 01:16:02.557
We get a shirtless little

01:16:02.618 --> 01:16:04.859
dude with us all ripped up.

01:16:05.180 --> 01:16:06.479
The best part was I think

01:16:06.520 --> 01:16:07.421
Brandon had watched the

01:16:07.461 --> 01:16:08.600
first episode with me.

01:16:08.940 --> 01:16:10.021
And then, you know, he was like,

01:16:10.042 --> 01:16:10.841
I know you got to catch up.

01:16:11.483 --> 01:16:12.243
You're reviewing it.

01:16:12.302 --> 01:16:13.304
So don't don't wait for me.

01:16:13.323 --> 01:16:14.224
I'll catch up when I can.

01:16:14.543 --> 01:16:14.944
And he did.

01:16:14.984 --> 01:16:15.364
He caught up.

01:16:15.385 --> 01:16:15.784
We caught up.

01:16:16.784 --> 01:16:17.786
He caught up watching it.

01:16:18.246 --> 01:16:19.127
And then we got to watch

01:16:19.167 --> 01:16:20.068
episode five together.

01:16:20.247 --> 01:16:23.350
Had no idea this was going to happen.

01:16:23.470 --> 01:16:23.930
So, yeah.

01:16:24.050 --> 01:16:24.690
And he's just like,

01:16:25.230 --> 01:16:26.292
I can see why you like the show.

01:16:26.311 --> 01:16:27.393
I was like, you know what, sir?

01:16:27.412 --> 01:16:29.394
That's not what I was expecting.

01:16:29.913 --> 01:16:31.555
And he's like, he's joking around.

01:16:31.574 --> 01:16:32.155
He's like, you know,

01:16:32.676 --> 01:16:33.516
she's totally looking at

01:16:33.777 --> 01:16:34.738
the other lightsaber.

01:16:34.818 --> 01:16:36.259
I was like, oh, my gosh.

01:16:36.578 --> 01:16:37.078
She did.

01:16:37.380 --> 01:16:37.859
She did, though.

01:16:38.239 --> 01:16:40.041
very subtly I'm like this is

01:16:40.100 --> 01:16:41.640
a disney program leslie

01:16:41.680 --> 01:16:43.162
headland what are you doing

01:16:43.202 --> 01:16:44.341
hand that camera down lower

01:16:44.381 --> 01:16:45.203
let's get a butt shot in

01:16:45.222 --> 01:16:46.143
there let's see if they do

01:16:46.222 --> 01:16:47.844
it they got really they got

01:16:47.884 --> 01:16:49.363
they they panned it down I

01:16:49.404 --> 01:16:50.364
was like are they really

01:16:50.385 --> 01:16:51.664
gonna give an ass shot in a

01:16:51.725 --> 01:16:53.345
star wars show like what's

01:16:53.365 --> 01:16:54.667
gonna happen stopped I was

01:16:54.707 --> 01:16:56.367
like I was ready for the

01:16:56.386 --> 01:16:57.667
internet to explode that's

01:16:57.688 --> 01:16:58.268
probably one of the most

01:16:58.408 --> 01:16:59.729
positive the ears are still

01:16:59.828 --> 01:17:02.130
intact that was actually

01:17:02.149 --> 01:17:03.149
one of the most positive

01:17:04.805 --> 01:17:06.706
And to be fair, it was, I'm like, it was,

01:17:06.725 --> 01:17:08.327
and he was turning onto the

01:17:08.386 --> 01:17:09.847
seduction of the dark side.

01:17:10.488 --> 01:17:11.349
I'm actually okay.

01:17:11.389 --> 01:17:13.710
If star Wars starts getting not,

01:17:14.310 --> 01:17:16.912
not overly sexual or not overly,

01:17:16.931 --> 01:17:18.252
but I think it can get, you know,

01:17:18.292 --> 01:17:18.752
more intense.

01:17:18.773 --> 01:17:19.132
Like again,

01:17:19.233 --> 01:17:21.875
I loved the savagery of the

01:17:21.914 --> 01:17:22.755
fight scene in the woods.

01:17:23.895 --> 01:17:24.435
That one.

01:17:25.016 --> 01:17:26.818
And that final fight scene.

01:17:27.118 --> 01:17:27.658
Yes.

01:17:27.978 --> 01:17:28.618
Ruthless.

01:17:30.418 --> 01:17:32.699
animalistic aggression.

01:17:32.739 --> 01:17:34.539
It was like watching

01:17:35.801 --> 01:17:38.362
Wolverine fight Sabretooth

01:17:38.402 --> 01:17:39.261
the first time.

01:17:39.402 --> 01:17:39.702
Yes.

01:17:40.662 --> 01:17:43.582
Like it was just raw force

01:17:43.623 --> 01:17:45.203
yielding energy.

01:17:45.224 --> 01:17:47.225
I felt for Yord.

01:17:47.324 --> 01:17:48.685
Yord was not my favorite character.

01:17:48.704 --> 01:17:49.586
And the fact that I just

01:17:49.626 --> 01:17:53.067
said raw energy live on air

01:17:54.306 --> 01:17:55.046
after talking about... This

01:17:55.067 --> 01:17:56.368
is your Ruthless era here.

01:17:56.747 --> 01:17:57.908
Apparently it is.

01:17:57.927 --> 01:17:59.229
I apologize to...

01:18:00.466 --> 01:18:01.188
everybody out there.

01:18:01.648 --> 01:18:02.828
No, but I'm not sorry.

01:18:02.849 --> 01:18:05.069
This is, this is USDN after dark.

01:18:05.130 --> 01:18:05.789
Here we go.

01:18:05.990 --> 01:18:06.211
Yeah.

01:18:06.251 --> 01:18:07.310
We did start the show an

01:18:07.331 --> 01:18:09.193
hour later tonight just for this.

01:18:09.292 --> 01:18:10.713
Cause we were going to be

01:18:10.753 --> 01:18:12.335
talking about shirtless dudes.

01:18:12.375 --> 01:18:14.216
Apparently that was your plan.

01:18:14.235 --> 01:18:15.516
That this, this was your idea.

01:18:16.516 --> 01:18:18.658
You're welcome.

01:18:18.698 --> 01:18:20.539
And my boss man just approved.

01:18:20.800 --> 01:18:21.399
So we're good.

01:18:22.280 --> 01:18:24.542
But I have to say, I do like that.

01:18:25.261 --> 01:18:26.323
Like the, even with your,

01:18:26.462 --> 01:18:27.604
not my favorite character,

01:18:27.783 --> 01:18:29.784
but his death was like downright.

01:18:30.585 --> 01:18:31.365
Ruthless.

01:18:31.485 --> 01:18:32.405
Ruthless.

01:18:32.667 --> 01:18:33.987
But so is Jackie's.

01:18:34.648 --> 01:18:36.368
She, she at least fought.

01:18:37.029 --> 01:18:38.569
though she fought a warrior

01:18:38.609 --> 01:18:41.230
he was the surprise that I

01:18:41.251 --> 01:18:42.692
didn't see coming she

01:18:42.811 --> 01:18:46.014
whooped his ass for most of

01:18:46.033 --> 01:18:47.314
that fight he didn't even

01:18:47.394 --> 01:18:48.814
use the force to kill yord

01:18:49.034 --> 01:18:50.136
that's how little he

01:18:50.155 --> 01:18:51.595
thought he fucking snapped

01:18:51.636 --> 01:18:52.856
his neck I was like he's

01:18:52.896 --> 01:18:55.719
like the only thing that

01:18:55.738 --> 01:18:56.458
could have been better is

01:18:56.559 --> 01:18:57.680
as he snapped his neck been

01:18:57.720 --> 01:18:58.500
like little man

01:18:59.925 --> 01:19:01.487
I mean, he's kind of did this almost,

01:19:01.606 --> 01:19:02.108
I hear you,

01:19:02.228 --> 01:19:03.789
but he still got that same point across.

01:19:03.810 --> 01:19:06.432
I was like, Ooh,

01:19:06.934 --> 01:19:08.095
that's one of the most like sad.

01:19:08.194 --> 01:19:09.195
And I know we really didn't

01:19:09.235 --> 01:19:10.297
talk about that episode

01:19:10.358 --> 01:19:11.538
because everybody was busy

01:19:11.599 --> 01:19:12.841
for the last couple of weeks,

01:19:13.001 --> 01:19:15.162
but Holy shit.

01:19:15.203 --> 01:19:16.265
That Jedi massacre,

01:19:16.284 --> 01:19:17.707
the red wedding of the Jedi.

01:19:17.827 --> 01:19:18.146
Yes.

01:19:18.167 --> 01:19:18.186
I,

01:19:19.167 --> 01:19:20.186
And I'm here for this.

01:19:20.347 --> 01:19:22.148
If Star Wars gives us more of that,

01:19:22.167 --> 01:19:24.208
I am okay with it because these fights.

01:19:24.770 --> 01:19:26.630
If they decide to go back to

01:19:26.649 --> 01:19:28.810
the Knights of the Old Republic,

01:19:29.332 --> 01:19:31.632
that's going to be some violent ass shit.

01:19:32.092 --> 01:19:32.972
And it has to be.

01:19:32.993 --> 01:19:33.514
Yeah.

01:19:33.554 --> 01:19:35.253
We're talking about there

01:19:35.274 --> 01:19:36.354
was a Sith war in there.

01:19:37.645 --> 01:19:38.405
And that's why that was,

01:19:38.725 --> 01:19:39.546
you're reading my mind here

01:19:39.567 --> 01:19:40.347
and I love it because

01:19:40.368 --> 01:19:41.609
that's when I thought my exact thought,

01:19:41.628 --> 01:19:41.908
it was like,

01:19:42.270 --> 01:19:43.109
I wonder if they're testing

01:19:43.130 --> 01:19:44.712
the waters here to see how

01:19:45.011 --> 01:19:46.353
audiences would have responded to that.

01:19:46.412 --> 01:19:47.333
Because if you're going to

01:19:47.373 --> 01:19:48.655
go into Knights of the Republic,

01:19:48.676 --> 01:19:49.395
you can't tone,

01:19:49.877 --> 01:19:50.917
you can't tone it down too much.

01:19:50.957 --> 01:19:51.798
Like you're going to have

01:19:51.859 --> 01:19:53.479
very well get our very

01:19:53.579 --> 01:19:55.101
first rated R Star Wars.

01:19:56.430 --> 01:19:57.331
Yeah, we could.

01:19:58.011 --> 01:19:58.771
And I'm not mad.

01:19:59.351 --> 01:20:00.193
Yeah, same.

01:20:00.313 --> 01:20:03.113
And, you know, Star Wars matures.

01:20:04.073 --> 01:20:05.795
Yeah, it has to.

01:20:05.875 --> 01:20:06.215
It does.

01:20:06.854 --> 01:20:07.595
It has to mature.

01:20:08.395 --> 01:20:09.536
Disney, no shit,

01:20:09.576 --> 01:20:12.256
signed off on Deadpool and Wolverine.

01:20:12.717 --> 01:20:12.917
Yeah.

01:20:12.957 --> 01:20:13.858
With an R rating.

01:20:14.078 --> 01:20:15.578
And not just an R rating,

01:20:16.259 --> 01:20:19.560
a hard R. So I'm like,

01:20:20.541 --> 01:20:21.980
if they're willing to, you know.

01:20:22.001 --> 01:20:24.542
Well, look at Echo.

01:20:25.103 --> 01:20:25.703
Look at Echo.

01:20:26.103 --> 01:20:26.243
Yeah.

01:20:26.990 --> 01:20:27.931
Dude, Echo,

01:20:28.653 --> 01:20:30.994
that was a bloody violent

01:20:31.074 --> 01:20:32.396
adventure that I was there for.

01:20:32.417 --> 01:20:33.858
It was amazing.

01:20:33.877 --> 01:20:36.280
Big props to you and Bill

01:20:36.320 --> 01:20:37.242
for coming on that show.

01:20:37.893 --> 01:20:38.493
Oh, that was fun.

01:20:38.512 --> 01:20:39.153
We had a great time

01:20:39.212 --> 01:20:39.932
discussing it with you.

01:20:39.953 --> 01:20:40.653
That was a good one.

01:20:40.833 --> 01:20:41.814
Cause I think y'all did it

01:20:42.333 --> 01:20:43.554
on Thursday and then we did

01:20:43.594 --> 01:20:45.073
it on like Saturday or Sunday.

01:20:45.094 --> 01:20:46.635
I think it was like a Saturday or Sunday.

01:20:46.694 --> 01:20:47.015
Yeah.

01:20:47.114 --> 01:20:48.835
And it, it, but that's the thing.

01:20:48.895 --> 01:20:50.135
Like you don't have to make

01:20:50.255 --> 01:20:51.274
every property that way.

01:20:51.335 --> 01:20:52.716
I think you can balance the

01:20:52.756 --> 01:20:54.576
force if you will bring

01:20:54.595 --> 01:20:56.336
some balance to it, have, you know,

01:20:56.496 --> 01:20:57.735
the content that we're used to,

01:20:57.756 --> 01:20:59.417
but get a little bit.

01:20:59.457 --> 01:21:01.537
I think Disney is since they

01:21:01.596 --> 01:21:02.636
partnered with Hulu,

01:21:03.417 --> 01:21:04.637
they've come to this thing

01:21:04.677 --> 01:21:05.898
where they have,

01:21:05.978 --> 01:21:07.177
they understand better that,

01:21:07.753 --> 01:21:08.536
some things are going to

01:21:08.615 --> 01:21:11.881
require a higher rating and

01:21:12.182 --> 01:21:13.905
they're becoming okay with

01:21:13.945 --> 01:21:17.932
this rated R just in special cases.

01:21:18.887 --> 01:21:19.148
Yeah,

01:21:19.328 --> 01:21:20.548
and it doesn't have to be every time.

01:21:21.409 --> 01:21:22.710
But some of these stories

01:21:22.750 --> 01:21:23.690
that we're telling and some

01:21:23.730 --> 01:21:25.351
of these eras are ruthless.

01:21:25.391 --> 01:21:25.811
I mean,

01:21:25.832 --> 01:21:26.853
you're reading in the High Republic

01:21:26.912 --> 01:21:27.412
era right now.

01:21:27.432 --> 01:21:28.194
Look at what's happening

01:21:28.234 --> 01:21:30.935
with the Nile and the Jedi.

01:21:31.716 --> 01:21:33.277
The level of intensity there.

01:21:33.296 --> 01:21:36.859
I haven't dived into the comics as much,

01:21:36.899 --> 01:21:38.199
which that's next on my list to do.

01:21:38.359 --> 01:21:39.360
I'm reading the... I've

01:21:39.421 --> 01:21:40.541
caught up in the young adult books.

01:21:40.581 --> 01:21:42.502
I'm reading the adult books

01:21:42.563 --> 01:21:43.762
right now because I've

01:21:43.802 --> 01:21:45.024
definitely been kind of

01:21:45.083 --> 01:21:47.045
diving in and wanting to know more.

01:21:47.064 --> 01:21:47.125
But...

01:21:48.365 --> 01:21:49.426
you know that there's so

01:21:49.466 --> 01:21:51.309
much there and then again

01:21:51.349 --> 01:21:52.409
you have the video games

01:21:52.449 --> 01:21:53.250
you have you know if you're

01:21:53.270 --> 01:21:54.530
gonna like how like when we

01:21:54.570 --> 01:21:55.912
talk about the books the

01:21:55.953 --> 01:21:57.533
young adult books the comic

01:21:57.573 --> 01:21:59.735
books all those stories in

01:21:59.775 --> 01:22:02.537
there all flow together yes

01:22:02.578 --> 01:22:05.000
like it's like this nice

01:22:05.240 --> 01:22:07.341
sequence of literature

01:22:08.171 --> 01:22:09.913
that come in and out of each

01:22:09.974 --> 01:22:10.715
other together.

01:22:10.774 --> 01:22:13.520
They're all interwoven to degrees,

01:22:13.680 --> 01:22:15.422
and they're just great reads.

01:22:16.765 --> 01:22:18.868
If you like Star Wars, dig into those.

01:22:18.889 --> 01:22:19.930
It's fantastic.

01:22:21.095 --> 01:22:22.975
Yeah, they are absolutely great.

01:22:22.996 --> 01:22:24.497
And there is a canon.

01:22:24.516 --> 01:22:25.617
There is a timeline order

01:22:25.817 --> 01:22:28.099
you can read as well that helps a lot.

01:22:28.118 --> 01:22:29.960
Just Google Star Wars

01:22:31.260 --> 01:22:32.720
timeline in books or

01:22:32.780 --> 01:22:33.820
however you want to Google it.

01:22:34.061 --> 01:22:35.261
You'll get the same answer either way.

01:22:35.282 --> 01:22:37.042
They have an official canon

01:22:37.082 --> 01:22:38.423
timeline out there.

01:22:38.623 --> 01:22:40.085
And you can sort it however

01:22:40.104 --> 01:22:41.125
you wish to read it.

01:22:41.244 --> 01:22:43.947
I usually do it in chronological order.

01:22:44.546 --> 01:22:45.627
Everything makes sense for me.

01:22:45.646 --> 01:22:46.608
There's another one that has

01:22:46.648 --> 01:22:48.509
it all from the very beginning.

01:22:48.529 --> 01:22:48.609
Yeah.

01:22:49.865 --> 01:22:50.445
how to read it,

01:22:51.226 --> 01:22:52.726
and then it mixes the shows

01:22:52.787 --> 01:22:53.467
into it as well.

01:22:53.507 --> 01:22:54.967
So you get... Oh, I've seen that one.

01:22:54.988 --> 01:22:55.228
Yes.

01:22:56.009 --> 01:22:57.208
And that's a really cool one.

01:22:57.488 --> 01:22:58.149
That's a good one.

01:22:58.349 --> 01:22:59.430
And then I realized I'm like,

01:22:59.890 --> 01:23:00.609
if I want to do that,

01:23:00.630 --> 01:23:02.850
I got to go out and find

01:23:02.911 --> 01:23:04.511
like 50 different books to read.

01:23:05.752 --> 01:23:06.632
Yeah.

01:23:06.993 --> 01:23:08.113
I'm like, what can I get?

01:23:08.132 --> 01:23:08.912
Because there's a lot out

01:23:08.932 --> 01:23:10.554
there that you didn't even realize.

01:23:10.753 --> 01:23:12.255
Like there's a whole book on

01:23:12.734 --> 01:23:13.335
just Plagueis.

01:23:14.636 --> 01:23:15.115
It's a great book.

01:23:16.155 --> 01:23:17.877
There's a book on Dooku.

01:23:18.833 --> 01:23:19.613
That's really good.

01:23:22.256 --> 01:23:23.837
I love my Asajj Ventress and

01:23:23.856 --> 01:23:25.757
Quinlan Vos book, The Dark Disciple.

01:23:25.778 --> 01:23:27.019
That one is so good.

01:23:27.298 --> 01:23:28.538
Damn, that one is so good.

01:23:29.020 --> 01:23:29.460
So good.

01:23:29.479 --> 01:23:31.140
That one,

01:23:31.161 --> 01:23:34.502
and it's not what you expect either.

01:23:34.523 --> 01:23:38.265
I mean, it is, but it isn't,

01:23:39.125 --> 01:23:40.326
and it was amazing.

01:23:41.680 --> 01:23:42.202
But anyways,

01:23:42.342 --> 01:23:43.846
let's know we got to start

01:23:43.867 --> 01:23:44.529
closing this out.

01:23:45.170 --> 01:23:46.092
So what did you think?

01:23:46.113 --> 01:23:48.298
What's your overall impressions of it?

01:23:48.418 --> 01:23:49.462
And do you think we will

01:23:49.521 --> 01:23:50.444
have a season two?

01:23:51.837 --> 01:23:53.118
I enjoyed it myself.

01:23:53.679 --> 01:23:56.702
I liked it.

01:23:57.421 --> 01:23:58.582
There were some structural things.

01:23:59.363 --> 01:24:00.604
Again, the episodes were too short.

01:24:00.625 --> 01:24:02.645
I feel like the order could be changed.

01:24:03.287 --> 01:24:06.328
But I loved the concepts of

01:24:06.748 --> 01:24:07.829
questioning the Jedi's

01:24:07.869 --> 01:24:10.011
methods and seeing what

01:24:10.212 --> 01:24:11.752
happened to lead to the

01:24:11.813 --> 01:24:13.774
current events of the Jedi's fall,

01:24:14.114 --> 01:24:14.975
their ultimate fall,

01:24:15.235 --> 01:24:16.356
the product of the system.

01:24:17.457 --> 01:24:18.917
I loved the take on the dark side.

01:24:18.957 --> 01:24:20.818
A plan a thousand years in the making.

01:24:21.018 --> 01:24:21.778
Exactly.

01:24:22.177 --> 01:24:22.778
Exactly.

01:24:22.858 --> 01:24:23.837
Just to see all of that come

01:24:23.877 --> 01:24:25.979
together and seeing where the cracks are.

01:24:25.998 --> 01:24:28.719
We definitely got the cracks.

01:24:29.158 --> 01:24:29.458
We did.

01:24:30.059 --> 01:24:30.378
We did.

01:24:30.738 --> 01:24:31.859
It's not the crack I wanted

01:24:31.880 --> 01:24:32.840
with Manny Jacinto's.

01:24:32.960 --> 01:24:33.479
I had to go there.

01:24:33.500 --> 01:24:33.880
I'm sorry.

01:24:33.899 --> 01:24:34.260
It was funny.

01:24:34.279 --> 01:24:34.960
It was right there.

01:24:34.979 --> 01:24:35.800
It was right there.

01:24:35.979 --> 01:24:36.621
Now you know what?

01:24:37.001 --> 01:24:41.020
Now you know how Bill deals with me.

01:24:41.240 --> 01:24:41.621
Brandon,

01:24:41.640 --> 01:24:43.381
hit me up if you just need to talk, man.

01:24:43.442 --> 01:24:44.362
I'm here for you, Brandon.

01:24:45.117 --> 01:24:45.918
That's okay.

01:24:45.939 --> 01:24:46.782
He's got lots of cake.

01:24:46.862 --> 01:24:47.222
It's fine.

01:24:47.703 --> 01:24:48.104
It's fine.

01:24:48.185 --> 01:24:49.108
Hey, he's a short king.

01:24:50.529 --> 01:24:51.269
I love my short King.

01:24:51.329 --> 01:24:51.930
I give him a hard time.

01:24:51.970 --> 01:24:54.371
We know, we know, you know, he's my man.

01:24:54.390 --> 01:24:55.492
I always will be.

01:24:55.652 --> 01:24:57.073
And so, you know, it's,

01:24:57.573 --> 01:24:58.774
but I love the seductive

01:24:58.793 --> 01:24:59.673
side of the Sith.

01:24:59.854 --> 01:25:01.215
It's a different interpretation.

01:25:01.234 --> 01:25:02.756
It really was.

01:25:02.895 --> 01:25:03.216
And again,

01:25:03.256 --> 01:25:04.917
the performances were really

01:25:04.957 --> 01:25:05.698
great overall.

01:25:05.717 --> 01:25:06.097
Like, again,

01:25:06.177 --> 01:25:08.259
I loved the questions I was left with.

01:25:08.659 --> 01:25:09.819
And I remember in the beginning,

01:25:09.859 --> 01:25:11.081
this was marketed as like

01:25:11.121 --> 01:25:12.301
kill bill meets frozen.

01:25:12.322 --> 01:25:13.181
Yeah.

01:25:13.242 --> 01:25:15.844
And I like that interpretation that much.

01:25:15.984 --> 01:25:16.805
It makes sense though.

01:25:16.904 --> 01:25:17.185
It, it,

01:25:17.765 --> 01:25:21.306
After the finale, it was like, oh, okay,

01:25:21.327 --> 01:25:22.046
now I see what the hell she

01:25:22.087 --> 01:25:22.747
was talking about.

01:25:23.108 --> 01:25:24.788
But she said that very early on.

01:25:24.828 --> 01:25:25.229
She did.

01:25:25.649 --> 01:25:26.729
And then it took all eight

01:25:26.770 --> 01:25:28.591
episodes for us to go, oh, okay,

01:25:28.631 --> 01:25:29.470
now it makes sense.

01:25:29.850 --> 01:25:32.273
So it's definitely in my

01:25:32.332 --> 01:25:35.854
top... I'd say my top four

01:25:37.034 --> 01:25:38.315
of the shows so far.

01:25:38.496 --> 01:25:38.695
I mean,

01:25:38.716 --> 01:25:40.396
I think there were definitely some

01:25:40.457 --> 01:25:41.778
improvements that could be made.

01:25:42.318 --> 01:25:43.078
But I think it was a

01:25:43.158 --> 01:25:44.338
strong... It was a good start.

01:25:44.479 --> 01:25:44.679
And I...

01:25:46.399 --> 01:25:47.740
I hope they get a season two.

01:25:47.820 --> 01:25:50.382
I'm not super optimistic that they will.

01:25:50.882 --> 01:25:51.944
But I'm also wondering,

01:25:52.003 --> 01:25:55.246
because of all of the dialogue, good, bad,

01:25:55.305 --> 01:25:55.725
et cetera,

01:25:55.765 --> 01:25:56.886
because I know they were losing

01:25:57.546 --> 01:25:58.448
viewers weekly.

01:25:59.228 --> 01:26:00.248
But with all the dialogue

01:26:00.269 --> 01:26:01.350
and the discourse online,

01:26:01.369 --> 01:26:02.189
sometimes that's enough to

01:26:02.229 --> 01:26:03.930
keep... It's enough to kill a show.

01:26:03.951 --> 01:26:06.932
And you could tell from the very beginning,

01:26:07.033 --> 01:26:08.613
from the discourse that was out there,

01:26:08.634 --> 01:26:09.694
that that was the intent,

01:26:09.734 --> 01:26:10.574
was to kill this.

01:26:11.416 --> 01:26:12.055
Which I don't think it

01:26:12.076 --> 01:26:14.198
deserved the hate that it has really...

01:26:15.506 --> 01:26:19.029
received but for what are

01:26:19.048 --> 01:26:20.010
you thinking out of five

01:26:20.130 --> 01:26:22.411
puffs how many puffs will

01:26:22.430 --> 01:26:23.891
the alkali get from amanda

01:26:25.112 --> 01:26:27.493
I'd say four okay I liked

01:26:27.594 --> 01:26:28.354
it again I thought it was

01:26:28.394 --> 01:26:29.875
really solid all the way

01:26:29.895 --> 01:26:30.635
around again there were

01:26:30.654 --> 01:26:32.095
structural things but I

01:26:32.216 --> 01:26:33.377
loved I loved that it made

01:26:33.396 --> 01:26:36.057
me think and question and

01:26:36.097 --> 01:26:36.819
I'm here for if you leave

01:26:36.838 --> 01:26:37.899
me with more questions and

01:26:37.918 --> 01:26:39.779
you're you're you actively

01:26:39.819 --> 01:26:40.640
make me think about you

01:26:41.640 --> 01:26:42.801
I literally all these

01:26:42.881 --> 01:26:44.042
questions come out this

01:26:44.122 --> 01:26:45.182
afternoon as I was sitting

01:26:45.203 --> 01:26:46.524
down to kind of put the

01:26:46.564 --> 01:26:49.827
final nails on the in the

01:26:49.867 --> 01:26:51.809
proverbial script coffin over here.

01:26:53.350 --> 01:26:55.792
And anytime I get left with

01:26:55.832 --> 01:26:59.175
more questions than answers I received,

01:26:59.534 --> 01:26:59.815
of course,

01:26:59.855 --> 01:27:01.756
I'm going to want more from it.

01:27:01.936 --> 01:27:03.238
And it did give me that.

01:27:04.099 --> 01:27:07.261
But I will go a soft four

01:27:07.341 --> 01:27:09.703
out of five on this one.

01:27:11.052 --> 01:27:12.512
And a lot of that is because

01:27:13.033 --> 01:27:13.993
the fan service that I

01:27:14.033 --> 01:27:15.073
received in the finale.

01:27:15.094 --> 01:27:17.274
I got Plagueis.

01:27:17.875 --> 01:27:20.376
I got an appearance from a

01:27:20.395 --> 01:27:21.395
700-year-old Yoda.

01:27:22.556 --> 01:27:28.438
And honestly, I got to see a mind wipe,

01:27:28.898 --> 01:27:29.819
which was really cool.

01:27:30.738 --> 01:27:34.760
You really get to see what

01:27:34.819 --> 01:27:35.961
eventually led to the

01:27:36.001 --> 01:27:37.140
downfall of the Jedi franchise.

01:27:38.376 --> 01:27:38.876
So for me,

01:27:38.917 --> 01:27:40.078
that's why it's getting a soft

01:27:40.158 --> 01:27:40.957
four out of five.

01:27:41.998 --> 01:27:43.520
Answer my damn questions, Leslie.

01:27:43.541 --> 01:27:44.501
And it's season two.

01:27:44.561 --> 01:27:45.983
If you get one, please.

01:27:47.003 --> 01:27:48.444
And if you need a transcript,

01:27:48.465 --> 01:27:49.865
I'll provide you with a transcript.

01:27:49.945 --> 01:27:50.226
Okay.

01:27:50.447 --> 01:27:51.427
I'm a nice guy like that.

01:27:51.488 --> 01:27:52.448
All you gotta do is ask.

01:27:52.889 --> 01:27:54.449
Hell, I'll help you write season two.

01:27:55.650 --> 01:27:56.231
Hire Jeff.

01:27:56.912 --> 01:27:57.412
Exactly.

01:27:57.733 --> 01:27:58.194
Exactly.

01:27:58.213 --> 01:27:59.675
All right, Amanda.

01:28:01.087 --> 01:28:02.046
final shots and thoughts,

01:28:02.106 --> 01:28:02.967
what you got for us?

01:28:03.768 --> 01:28:04.787
Not just, well, not,

01:28:04.927 --> 01:28:05.788
not necessarily on this,

01:28:05.809 --> 01:28:06.689
but what you got coming up.

01:28:06.769 --> 01:28:08.149
I know you're a very busy lady,

01:28:08.729 --> 01:28:09.390
but what you got?

01:28:10.130 --> 01:28:10.449
Yeah.

01:28:10.529 --> 01:28:12.570
Well, of course, um, you can follow me.

01:28:12.791 --> 01:28:13.890
Uh, we are at the pop break.

01:28:14.091 --> 01:28:14.931
So follow the pop break on

01:28:14.971 --> 01:28:16.112
all social media platforms,

01:28:16.351 --> 01:28:18.012
except for the pop break.com on YouTube.

01:28:18.712 --> 01:28:20.293
Uh, but we, uh, you know,

01:28:20.514 --> 01:28:23.015
doing this for 15 years and, uh,

01:28:23.034 --> 01:28:24.015
all through the mastermind.

01:28:24.034 --> 01:28:24.375
Wow.

01:28:24.414 --> 01:28:25.175
Two out of five.

01:28:25.194 --> 01:28:25.775
Okay.

01:28:25.796 --> 01:28:26.216
All right.

01:28:26.676 --> 01:28:26.876
Hey,

01:28:27.469 --> 01:28:27.988
Yeah.

01:28:28.050 --> 01:28:29.230
We respect everybody's

01:28:29.251 --> 01:28:30.030
opinion around here.

01:28:30.692 --> 01:28:31.752
Definitely like the execution.

01:28:31.773 --> 01:28:32.412
There were some things that

01:28:32.432 --> 01:28:33.774
could definitely be improved though.

01:28:33.793 --> 01:28:34.975
I want to argue none of those.

01:28:35.536 --> 01:28:36.837
Yeah, absolutely.

01:28:36.917 --> 01:28:39.800
So, but yeah, you know,

01:28:39.859 --> 01:28:40.359
if we have different

01:28:40.399 --> 01:28:41.621
articles that come out all the time,

01:28:41.640 --> 01:28:42.981
we have a lot of different

01:28:43.002 --> 01:28:44.684
podcasts on the, on the pop break.

01:28:45.123 --> 01:28:46.364
I am the co-host of two of them.

01:28:47.506 --> 01:28:49.148
I'm the co-host with Bill Bodkin and,

01:28:49.648 --> 01:28:51.269
uh for the flagship podcast

01:28:51.349 --> 01:28:52.369
of the social of the uh the

01:28:52.409 --> 01:28:53.369
pop break which is the

01:28:53.430 --> 01:28:55.011
socially distanced uh we

01:28:55.030 --> 01:28:56.252
drop new episodes on

01:28:56.351 --> 01:28:58.193
fridays and we cover

01:28:58.212 --> 01:28:59.052
different pop culture

01:28:59.193 --> 01:29:00.373
events we just concluded

01:29:00.434 --> 01:29:01.295
our house of the acolyte

01:29:01.314 --> 01:29:02.555
series where we were doing

01:29:02.574 --> 01:29:04.256
coverage of the acolyte

01:29:04.275 --> 01:29:05.037
house of the dragon which

01:29:05.096 --> 01:29:07.297
jeff helped us kick off so

01:29:07.318 --> 01:29:08.378
to kick it off I didn't get

01:29:08.399 --> 01:29:09.458
to participate in anymore

01:29:09.479 --> 01:29:11.020
because I of course am

01:29:11.039 --> 01:29:13.261
behind on not only house of

01:29:13.280 --> 01:29:14.981
the dragon but also game of

01:29:15.002 --> 01:29:15.983
thrones as we learned

01:29:16.636 --> 01:29:18.796
but he did a great job on his episode.

01:29:18.817 --> 01:29:19.697
So go check that out.

01:29:19.957 --> 01:29:20.516
We loved it.

01:29:20.537 --> 01:29:21.577
You're too kind.

01:29:21.617 --> 01:29:22.658
You brought a lot of really

01:29:22.677 --> 01:29:23.997
great content on the acolyte.

01:29:24.018 --> 01:29:24.818
You came, you came,

01:29:24.837 --> 01:29:26.257
you brought your a game on.

01:29:26.278 --> 01:29:27.219
You brought that, you brought that.

01:29:27.298 --> 01:29:29.118
Anytime I get to come onto

01:29:29.158 --> 01:29:30.399
somebody else's podcast,

01:29:30.458 --> 01:29:32.239
you best believe I'm doing

01:29:32.279 --> 01:29:33.420
a lot of reading beforehand.

01:29:33.460 --> 01:29:36.381
Cause I'm not showing up looking soft.

01:29:37.082 --> 01:29:38.644
So check him out.

01:29:38.863 --> 01:29:39.945
Go check out his episode.

01:29:40.286 --> 01:29:42.670
Of course, we're now covering, of course,

01:29:42.689 --> 01:29:44.351
the remainder of House of the Dragon.

01:29:44.372 --> 01:29:45.974
This coming week we'll be covering.

01:29:46.054 --> 01:29:47.115
I will actually not be here

01:29:47.475 --> 01:29:49.057
for this one episode coming

01:29:49.097 --> 01:29:49.719
up this next week.

01:29:49.838 --> 01:29:50.500
Really?

01:29:50.520 --> 01:29:51.601
Yeah, it happens.

01:29:51.662 --> 01:29:53.043
I go out every once in a while.

01:29:53.064 --> 01:29:53.645
I go on vacation.

01:29:54.385 --> 01:29:55.404
Um, yes.

01:29:55.444 --> 01:29:57.105
House of the dragon is so good.

01:29:57.525 --> 01:29:59.365
I will not, I will not miss the finale.

01:29:59.386 --> 01:30:00.105
Um,

01:30:00.286 --> 01:30:01.627
and of course I will be tuning in and

01:30:01.686 --> 01:30:02.806
listening, of course, supporting,

01:30:02.947 --> 01:30:04.327
supporting my, my wonderful friends,

01:30:04.367 --> 01:30:04.827
but they're going to be

01:30:04.846 --> 01:30:07.427
covering a Deadpool and Wolverine, uh,

01:30:07.488 --> 01:30:08.408
this, this upcoming, uh,

01:30:09.047 --> 01:30:09.847
this upcoming week.

01:30:09.948 --> 01:30:10.787
And of course, again, we're,

01:30:10.948 --> 01:30:12.248
we're here for house of the dragon.

01:30:12.269 --> 01:30:12.908
Uh,

01:30:12.948 --> 01:30:14.748
we have a massive football episode

01:30:15.189 --> 01:30:16.869
ready to go, which I know you guys,

01:30:17.130 --> 01:30:18.310
I was going to hit it on that one.

01:30:18.851 --> 01:30:20.832
Yeah, and I think Kelvin too.

01:30:20.853 --> 01:30:23.494
So it's a big collaborative.

01:30:23.534 --> 01:30:25.976
It's probably our biggest effort to date.

01:30:26.037 --> 01:30:27.478
So that's going to be coming out.

01:30:28.238 --> 01:30:30.078
We'll be covering Agatha all

01:30:30.119 --> 01:30:31.119
along down the line.

01:30:31.140 --> 01:30:32.860
We will too.

01:30:32.900 --> 01:30:34.322
Yeah, we have, of course,

01:30:34.341 --> 01:30:35.622
San Diego Comic-Con episode,

01:30:36.063 --> 01:30:37.524
kind of a wrap-up coming up as well.

01:30:37.604 --> 01:30:38.585
So we'll have that too.

01:30:38.604 --> 01:30:39.926
I will definitely be there for that one.

01:30:40.225 --> 01:30:40.685
Yeah,

01:32:04.726 --> 01:32:05.827
with his Batman knowledge.

01:32:05.948 --> 01:32:07.828

My short King and I do have

01:32:16.193 --> 01:32:17.274
our joint cosplay account.

01:32:17.314 --> 01:32:18.673

01:32:23.277 --> 01:32:25.439

01:32:32.483 --> 01:32:33.863
Thank you again, Jeff, for having me.

01:32:33.984 --> 01:32:35.164
It is always a pleasure.

01:32:35.185 --> 01:32:36.445
It's great.

01:32:36.706 --> 01:32:38.067
I love chatting Star Wars with you.

01:32:38.346 --> 01:32:39.587
You've become like a partner

01:32:39.608 --> 01:32:41.930
in crime here at USDN.

01:32:41.970 --> 01:32:45.532
You are a council member here at USDN.

01:32:45.712 --> 01:32:47.432
And I often find myself

01:32:47.493 --> 01:32:49.494
between you and Rob and some others,

01:32:50.114 --> 01:32:51.036
I've run almost everything

01:32:51.095 --> 01:32:51.916
I've decided I want to do

01:32:51.975 --> 01:32:53.898
through y'all to some degree.

01:32:53.917 --> 01:32:57.319
You did a great job.

01:32:57.539 --> 01:32:59.280
So tell people a little more

01:32:59.360 --> 01:33:00.782
about this fantastic podcast.

01:33:00.822 --> 01:33:04.823
What is coming up for USDN?

01:33:05.164 --> 01:33:08.065
Jeffy Jeff, aka the chairman of USDN.

01:33:08.447 --> 01:33:09.346
I'm glad you asked.

01:33:10.648 --> 01:33:13.550
I will be on a special

01:33:13.609 --> 01:33:15.131
episode of The Pop Break coming up.

01:33:15.671 --> 01:33:17.091
Our NFL kickoff show.

01:33:17.833 --> 01:33:19.253
I will be covering my

01:33:19.293 --> 01:33:20.994
Chicago Bears while

01:33:21.055 --> 01:33:22.895
simultaneously crying into

01:33:22.914 --> 01:33:24.655
my pillow about the Chicago Bears.

01:33:25.475 --> 01:33:27.095
I know Kelvin will be on there as well,

01:33:27.155 --> 01:33:29.377
talking about his New Orleans Saints.

01:33:30.657 --> 01:33:31.657
And it's going to be a

01:33:31.716 --> 01:33:33.136
collaborative effort with a

01:33:33.216 --> 01:33:35.257
lot of the fellas from BCP as well.

01:33:35.278 --> 01:33:36.917
So that's something to look

01:33:36.957 --> 01:33:38.639
forward to coming up or

01:33:38.698 --> 01:33:39.899
waiting on the dates and everything.

01:33:39.939 --> 01:33:41.259
I think I know Bill's

01:33:41.359 --> 01:33:43.399
finalizing everything and putting a,

01:33:43.840 --> 01:33:44.899
he's putting together a great,

01:33:45.692 --> 01:33:47.012
NFL kickoff show.

01:33:47.052 --> 01:33:48.514
It's going to be fantastic.

01:33:49.213 --> 01:33:50.055
And I will share that here

01:33:50.095 --> 01:33:51.815
on USDN when I have all

01:33:51.855 --> 01:33:53.056
those words on that and

01:33:53.096 --> 01:33:53.957
when it's going to happen

01:33:54.077 --> 01:33:56.458
and when that show comes out.

01:33:57.099 --> 01:33:58.739
From a USDN perspective,

01:33:58.800 --> 01:34:00.201
I'll be sharing what I get

01:34:00.261 --> 01:34:01.582
from San Diego Comic-Con

01:34:01.601 --> 01:34:03.203
through other sources on the news.

01:34:03.222 --> 01:34:04.583
And of course, as always,

01:34:04.623 --> 01:34:05.703
I'll share what I can from

01:34:05.724 --> 01:34:06.685
the pop break as well.

01:34:07.966 --> 01:34:08.926
You don't have to wait very

01:34:08.985 --> 01:34:11.688
long for the next USDN episode.

01:34:12.167 --> 01:34:15.069
We will be back Monday with Brother Robb.

01:34:15.868 --> 01:34:20.295
covering Cobra Kai and also

01:34:23.259 --> 01:34:24.621
shit the boys yeah I was

01:34:24.640 --> 01:34:25.442
about to say I was against

01:34:25.462 --> 01:34:26.524
the boys right I think yeah

01:34:26.543 --> 01:34:27.484
I brain farted that one

01:34:27.524 --> 01:34:28.987
hard that was the stinky one

01:34:30.185 --> 01:34:31.667
Yeah, the boys finale.

01:34:32.007 --> 01:34:32.167
Well,

01:34:32.207 --> 01:34:33.668
we'll cover the whole season of the boys.

01:34:34.390 --> 01:34:36.471
And then the first five

01:34:36.572 --> 01:34:39.814
episodes of Cobra Kai season one,

01:34:39.873 --> 01:34:41.916
which if you are a Netflix fan,

01:34:41.956 --> 01:34:44.137
you'll know that Cobra Kai was, I think,

01:34:44.177 --> 01:34:46.579
the first TV series to get

01:34:46.659 --> 01:34:47.980
a sixth season.

01:34:49.122 --> 01:34:49.802
I don't think there's been

01:34:49.842 --> 01:34:51.765
another TV show to get a sixth season.

01:34:53.265 --> 01:34:53.786
And oh, by the way,

01:34:53.826 --> 01:34:55.408
the first two seasons of

01:34:56.349 --> 01:34:57.689
Cobra Kai were YouTube's.

01:34:59.413 --> 01:34:59.974
That's right.

01:35:00.493 --> 01:35:00.694
Yeah.

01:35:01.015 --> 01:35:01.715
And then they bought it.

01:35:01.734 --> 01:35:02.435
Yep.

01:35:03.636 --> 01:35:04.595
And then also there's

01:35:04.676 --> 01:35:05.957
another spinoff coming with

01:35:06.016 --> 01:35:08.377
Jackie Chan and Ralph Macchio.

01:35:10.498 --> 01:35:11.179
So that's going to be

01:35:11.219 --> 01:35:12.640
interesting as well when that comes out.

01:35:13.739 --> 01:35:16.440
But yeah, Monday, 8 p.m.

01:35:16.640 --> 01:35:17.902
Eastern Standard Time,

01:35:18.542 --> 01:35:21.682
the boys finale and part

01:35:22.083 --> 01:35:25.145
one of three of Cobra Kai will be Monday.

01:35:26.555 --> 01:35:28.377
And then after that,

01:35:28.436 --> 01:35:29.957
I don't know what's really going on here.

01:35:30.417 --> 01:35:31.198
At USDN,

01:35:31.219 --> 01:35:33.319
we'll probably make it up as we go,

01:35:33.640 --> 01:35:34.220
as always.

01:35:34.640 --> 01:35:35.502
We'll probably be back with

01:35:35.542 --> 01:35:39.264
some big news slash rumor special.

01:35:39.644 --> 01:35:43.247
Probably maybe the second week of August,

01:35:43.587 --> 01:35:44.226
I'm guessing.

01:35:44.606 --> 01:35:44.948
We'll see.

01:35:45.268 --> 01:35:46.068
We'll see what the schedule

01:35:46.087 --> 01:35:47.548
looks like for all the council members.

01:35:48.930 --> 01:35:49.791
Because I know school will

01:35:49.810 --> 01:35:51.271
be starting back around that time.

01:35:51.771 --> 01:35:54.274
And I'll be getting a kid off to college.

01:35:54.594 --> 01:35:54.694
So...

01:35:57.333 --> 01:35:58.595
That'll be an emotional moment.

01:35:59.715 --> 01:36:01.996
It's a three hour cry both ways.

01:36:03.457 --> 01:36:05.377
So with that,

01:36:05.398 --> 01:36:07.338
I want to thank everybody for

01:36:07.399 --> 01:36:08.359
