00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:13.800
It's the downbeat. I'm ninety seven
to one, the Tree Yima thirty minutes

2
00:00:13.839 --> 00:00:20.960
away, the Jeff and Julie iHeartRadio
and Employee Performance Review to Speak Easy two

3
00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:25.359
to six pm. They'll join us
via zoom in thirty minutes. Look at

4
00:00:25.399 --> 00:00:28.239
d Good Morning News. In a
minute. We were doing our top ten

5
00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:32.479
TV shows at twenty twenty three.
Danny's in Order number ten, Fargo number

6
00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:37.280
nine, FX's Fleischmann is in trouble, and Hulu number eight, paramounts Mayor

7
00:00:37.320 --> 00:00:42.240
of Kingston or Kingstown. Number seven
HBO is the last of us number six

8
00:00:42.280 --> 00:00:47.079
succession for Kevin always Sonny in Philadelphia. Number nine, I think you should

9
00:00:47.159 --> 00:00:50.640
leave Netflix. Number eight, The
Curse on Showtime, number seven, The

10
00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:54.719
Righteous Jim Stones HBO, and number
six Barry HBO. You have not broken

11
00:00:54.799 --> 00:00:58.960
ranks with the comedy genre yet,
have you noticed that? What do you

12
00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:03.600
mean? You're ten through six.
They're all comedies. They are close to

13
00:01:03.960 --> 00:01:07.959
the comedy world. It's what I
prefer. I want comedies. You're a

14
00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:11.439
funny man, kevoh I miss I
miss comedies. We need more Comedyvin.

15
00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:17.319
Kevin claims there are no funny movies
anymore. I do we've it fell off.

16
00:01:17.359 --> 00:01:19.879
We don't have any funny movies.
We need more fun and funny stuff.

17
00:01:21.280 --> 00:01:23.760
Well, let me first responder out
here, and I need to laugh.

18
00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:30.840
Nothing funny about my top five.
Oh, starting with number five,

19
00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:34.040
we are, yes, we are
doing our top ten best TV shows of

20
00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:38.319
twenty twenty three. My list versus
Kevio's list. We ran through ten through

21
00:01:38.359 --> 00:01:45.079
six. Now let's get five through
number one. Number five. Part one

22
00:01:45.319 --> 00:01:51.599
of the final season of this series
on Netflix is complete, and I am

23
00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:59.000
talking about The Crown, something that
I have taken years to catch up on,

24
00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:01.200
one of those shows that I started
years ago. When it came out

25
00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:06.159
and i'd watch a few episodes,
I'd forget about it. I'd go back

26
00:02:06.319 --> 00:02:08.599
kind of be lost about where I
left off, and started over again.

27
00:02:08.680 --> 00:02:12.879
I've started this show over about four
times, and I finally committed to it

28
00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:15.800
this year and got caught up from
the middle of season one all the way

29
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:21.919
through where they are now. We
are now at the point where Lady Die

30
00:02:22.759 --> 00:02:30.879
has passed away in the car accident
in Paris, and they're picking it up.

31
00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:34.639
I believe any pretty much. Any
time they take like a two or

32
00:02:34.639 --> 00:02:38.680
three week break and then they're going
to drop the final eight I guess seven

33
00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:44.080
or eight episodes and then it's over. But it's so well done. It's

34
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:47.319
so good. The thing I love
about this show, rather than aging characters,

35
00:02:49.080 --> 00:02:54.919
after a certain time period lapse has
lapsed, usually two seasons, then

36
00:02:55.000 --> 00:03:00.599
they reintroduce a new queen, a
new king, a new prince charge all

37
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:02.919
of that. It's like a different
different characters that are more age appropriate for

38
00:03:04.039 --> 00:03:07.120
those roles, keep depending on that
time in history. It's so damn good.

39
00:03:07.159 --> 00:03:14.000
And I love that the the king
is now I guess he's the king

40
00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:19.479
or the Duke or whatever. The
Queen of England's husband is now McNulty from

41
00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:22.400
the wire. That's crazy, really
funny, really funny. But yeah,

42
00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:25.520
the Crown's just phenomenal. It's what
it should be and it's so incredibly well

43
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:28.680
done. Number five, okay,
Number five for me is going to be

44
00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:32.199
Apple TV and it is shrinking,
which I forgot, but it came out

45
00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:35.879
in January and then when I realized, I was like, oh, yeah,

46
00:03:35.919 --> 00:03:38.879
I've got to get this in here. And Jason Siegel as your headliner.

47
00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:45.319
Harrison Ford serves in a supplemental role. He's not featured prominently. He

48
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:50.800
is in every episode. But you
know, Jessica Williams is kind of the

49
00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:57.080
she steals the show. Basically very
funny. And this show also features our

50
00:03:57.080 --> 00:04:04.599
friend Michael Ury who so basically the
show's therapist, and Jason Seagulls a therapist,

51
00:04:04.680 --> 00:04:08.840
but his wife died and he's not
handling her well and he's trying to

52
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:12.439
raise a teenage daughter too, a
teenage daughter who doesn't really want to talk

53
00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:15.360
to him that much because she thinks
he's corny and other reasons, and she

54
00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:19.639
sees a therapist as well, his
boss who's Harrison Ford, and it goes

55
00:04:19.680 --> 00:04:24.160
on a lot of different you know, it's from the guy who made Scrubs

56
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:27.720
and the guy who made ted Lasso, and as those you know, heartstring

57
00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:31.040
feels to it. But it's very
funny. Jason siegells so damn likable,

58
00:04:31.639 --> 00:04:35.120
and I don't know, there's a
lot of good things. The other guy

59
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:40.839
that Brett Goldstein, was also a
co creator as well. He's the guy

60
00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:45.240
who was Roy Kent on Ted Lasso
too. I liked it way more than

61
00:04:45.279 --> 00:04:48.399
I liked Ted Lasso, like any
season of Ted Lasso. Yeah, I

62
00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:54.319
think Shrinking is three times as good
as Ted Lasso, I've heard shrinking.

63
00:04:55.040 --> 00:04:59.279
I've heard so many good things about
this show. I know Kavanaugh is a

64
00:04:59.319 --> 00:05:03.120
huge fan of it. And it's
that damn Apple TV problem where I've got

65
00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:10.120
an older Roku and it will not
allow me to use the Apple platform on

66
00:05:10.279 --> 00:05:15.879
Roku. But that's about to change
because coming up on December twenty sixth is

67
00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:26.800
the third Spielberg Hanks collab based on
events of World War Two, called Masters

68
00:05:26.839 --> 00:05:34.160
of Air starring Austin Butler, which
follows a European campaign of the guys flying

69
00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:39.839
the planes, the bombers, the
fighter jets, all of that stuff,

70
00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:45.399
but it's taking on that's kind of
the setting for this portion of their World

71
00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:48.680
War II storytelling, which is Band
of Brothers. Pound for Pound is the

72
00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:54.279
best series of television that's ever been
created. I've seen it more as many

73
00:05:54.360 --> 00:05:58.600
or more than any other series that's
been out there. Limited series ten episodes,

74
00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:02.120
so I don't count it against Pranos
or Six Feet Under or Breaking Bad

75
00:06:02.199 --> 00:06:05.120
anything like that, but as far
as a limited series, it's the best

76
00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:10.600
thing that I've ever seen. But
it used to be on HBO. HBO

77
00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:15.680
refused to retain the rights to this, and now Masters of the air will

78
00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:19.480
be on Apple Plus. But speaking
of HBO, my number four is something

79
00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:23.480
that I don't think a lot of
people watch. I think it's incredibly underrated,

80
00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:30.519
but it is so freaking good.
It's based on the work of Earl

81
00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:35.079
Stanley Gardner and it's a drama series
that traces the origins of the famed criminal

82
00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:41.920
defense lawyer Perry Mason. Okay,
I know you haven't watched this. I've

83
00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:46.639
seen so little of it just to
find Christina Chicken. Okay. It stars

84
00:06:47.199 --> 00:06:53.480
Matthew Reese, which we should all
know from the great television show The Americans

85
00:06:53.560 --> 00:06:59.480
Spectacular and it's nineteen thirty one.
It's a killer period piece based in Los

86
00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:03.240
Angeles. He's a defensive criminal defense
attorney. But whereas the old Perry Mason

87
00:07:04.720 --> 00:07:10.079
kind of followed, each episode was
its own case, you know, kind

88
00:07:10.079 --> 00:07:12.319
of like a law and Order kind
of thing, where it's beginning and end,

89
00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:14.519
they wrap it up, they go
to trial, all of that stuff,

90
00:07:14.959 --> 00:07:18.560
this series takes its time and they
focus on one case over an eight

91
00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:23.480
episode series. It's so damn good. And if you've got HBO Max and

92
00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:25.560
you've seen that on there and going
like, oh, you know what,

93
00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:28.879
Perry Mason, who's that guy?
Is that guy from some other stuff?

94
00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:32.800
Watch it? It's amazing. Number
four for me HBO as well. The

95
00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:41.120
Last of Us Pedro Pascal is incredible
and the show will absolutely destroy you.

96
00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:45.839
A couple of times it will or
a couple episodes you will just be I'm

97
00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:50.560
obliterated, but beautiful and I can't
wait to see how they continue it because

98
00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:54.439
a lot of people are just amazed
at how well it's held up compared to

99
00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:57.839
the video game, which I didn't
play, but I love hearing because it's

100
00:07:58.199 --> 00:08:01.480
people in that video game world you
would expect your pookle, Well, it's

101
00:08:01.480 --> 00:08:03.680
not like this. It is not
like this. It's not like this the

102
00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:05.120
way we were maybe even talking about
the von Aerck movie a little bit.

103
00:08:05.560 --> 00:08:09.519
But they're like, well, they
did a great job with how they handled

104
00:08:09.519 --> 00:08:13.360
that, you know, letting people
who it's good to voice actors in the

105
00:08:13.439 --> 00:08:16.639
game have a role you know in
the TV show and little things like that,

106
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:22.000
and it's just a classically great done
HBO show. That's cool. Uh.

107
00:08:22.120 --> 00:08:28.959
Number three for me, dude,
I know that nobody's seen this,

108
00:08:30.279 --> 00:08:33.240
but I love, love, love
this series, and they did had their

109
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:39.200
final season. It's a British It's
a British crime show and it's called Happy

110
00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:43.480
Valley. It was my number three
favorite show of twenty twenty three. It's

111
00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:50.000
based in West Yorkshire, which is
around Leeds Sheffield, that part of that

112
00:08:50.039 --> 00:08:56.120
part of England, and it follows
this female police sergeant. Her name is

113
00:08:56.200 --> 00:09:00.200
Catherine k Wood, not not the
actress, the character's name. She's a

114
00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:05.279
divorced police sergeant. She's got two
children and she's trying to recover from the

115
00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:11.440
suicide of her eldest daughter. And
it had the suicide happened eight years ago,

116
00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:15.200
you know, eight years prior to
the series starting, So it's this

117
00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:20.639
woman that's still dealing with the grief
of losing her eldest daughter, and she

118
00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:24.000
also has to juggle, you know, raising two other kids divorced and she

119
00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:31.600
is a police sergeant of this smaller
unit. But dude, it's so unlike

120
00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:37.919
any other crime show that I've ever
seen, because it really does. This

121
00:09:37.960 --> 00:09:41.960
series has the ability to really be
very, very human. It's so relatable

122
00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:48.440
and you fall absolutely in love with
this with this police woman. It's so

123
00:09:48.600 --> 00:09:52.840
damn good. It's one of the
best best British television shows I've ever seen.

124
00:09:52.360 --> 00:09:56.320
I absolutely love it. Happy Valley. If you've got box, yeah,

125
00:09:56.399 --> 00:10:01.840
britt Box or PBS. I believe
it's on one of those. But

126
00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:05.639
yeah, it's incredible and they just
wrapped it up this year and the ending

127
00:10:05.919 --> 00:10:09.799
is shocking. Yeah. Number three
for me, only five episodes in.

128
00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:13.919
It's Fargo. I mean their play
on the Night remember before Christmas, and

129
00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:18.799
how they're using that on the side, which I remember Before Christmas was one

130
00:10:18.799 --> 00:10:22.519
of my favorite movies. So the
way they're using that and evolving that into

131
00:10:22.519 --> 00:10:28.279
the storyline. John Ham incredible f
and Steve from Stranger Things is really good,

132
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:33.000
is playing the moron. The killer
Guy is good in Juno Temple from

133
00:10:33.080 --> 00:10:37.399
Ted Lasso is great as well.
I mean, I just it's the one

134
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:41.360
show right now that I'm watching live
on Tuesday nights at nine because I look

135
00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:46.759
forward to it so much. You
are watching a television show that has commercials

136
00:10:46.759 --> 00:10:50.240
in it because I love it.
It's that because I look forward to it.

137
00:10:50.360 --> 00:10:52.960
I mean, it's just like we
just turned the lights off and it's

138
00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:56.240
got a horror film vibe totally.
But I've loved it so far. It

139
00:10:56.240 --> 00:11:00.000
could fall off because you know,
you never know, but through five episode

140
00:11:00.159 --> 00:11:03.519
I'm sitting here, going and feeding
me. We're halfway done, and this

141
00:11:03.559 --> 00:11:09.639
thing's amazing. There's something incredibly fun
about watching a series that's based around Minnesota

142
00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:13.279
and North Dakota, especially in the
winter time. Yeah, it's just there's

143
00:11:13.320 --> 00:11:16.279
just such a vibe ball and you're
right in. The accents are just wonderful.

144
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:22.000
And I kind of have a big
crush on the the cop, the

145
00:11:22.279 --> 00:11:26.080
police lady cop, the Native American
police lady cop that has the dufest husband

146
00:11:26.159 --> 00:11:30.840
that thinks he's going to be a
professional golfer, and that guy, every

147
00:11:30.919 --> 00:11:33.960
day, all day long, all
he does is play simulated golf in his

148
00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:39.960
garage and buy new clubs thinking he's
gonna get his PGA card. That it's

149
00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:43.960
really good. There's a world where
that was SIROI. I don't know if

150
00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:46.799
it's that world, but there is
a world where that's Siroy, maybe when

151
00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:50.000
he was younger. I gotta get
my swings in. I hope this is

152
00:11:50.039 --> 00:11:52.679
in your top two. I think
it probably is, but number two for

153
00:11:52.799 --> 00:11:56.960
me, and it could have been
number one so easily. You know what

154
00:11:56.039 --> 00:12:01.399
this is? This is one B
because I don't think that this is one

155
00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:07.320
my one and two or one A
and B This is FX is the Bear.

156
00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:13.519
It may be the best television show
that I've seen in the last I

157
00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:18.039
don't know, five years, two
seasons. Maybe that's maybe that's why it

158
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:22.720
made number two because it's still kind
of a young series. I don't know

159
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:26.440
how long they plan on going with
this, but this show is so stinking

160
00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:31.159
good. Jeremy Allen White is the
main character the premises. If you haven't

161
00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:35.320
seen it, he is a kind
of a world renowned chef, like this

162
00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:41.639
guy paid his dues, worked for
you know, a Michelin rated restaurants in

163
00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:48.320
New York and abroad, and his
brother commits suicide and he kind of takes

164
00:12:48.360 --> 00:12:52.720
it upon himself to move back to
Chicago take over the family business, which

165
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:56.480
is a freaking Italian beef sandwich stop. It's basically like a walk up service

166
00:12:56.559 --> 00:13:01.320
stand that sells Italian beef sandwiches,
which is very popular in Chicago, and

167
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:05.759
it's number one. The first season
about is him kind of getting it in

168
00:13:05.919 --> 00:13:09.759
the red, you know, or
getting it in the black out of the

169
00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:13.440
red end of the black to where
it's profitable and cleaning the place up and

170
00:13:13.480 --> 00:13:16.840
passing health inspections and getting all the
infrastructure of the place and the staff and

171
00:13:16.840 --> 00:13:20.279
all that, and then he realizes
it's like, you know what, we

172
00:13:20.279 --> 00:13:24.279
can elevate this place. We can
turn this into a pretty kick ass restaurant

173
00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:26.960
and still do the Italian beef stuff
and the hot dogs and all that.

174
00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:31.759
But kind of like he has this
vision, and that's what season two is

175
00:13:31.799 --> 00:13:35.840
about, is him putting his vision
together. But there's no more heartfelt,

176
00:13:35.639 --> 00:13:41.799
realistic human family show on television that
I've seen in a long time. The

177
00:13:41.799 --> 00:13:48.360
Bear is effing brilliant. And the
most episodes of thirty minutes. Number two

178
00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:50.919
for me is The Bear on Fax. I love it. And obviously there

179
00:13:50.919 --> 00:13:52.919
are two landmark episodes if you want
to catch up a much season one.

180
00:13:52.960 --> 00:14:00.360
Season one, it's when they are
inserting the basically the online ordering app,

181
00:14:00.840 --> 00:14:03.039
you know, and how they're and
that causes chaos in the kitchen. To

182
00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:07.039
me, that was beautiful. But
then when they move past just what's going

183
00:14:07.080 --> 00:14:11.320
on, yeah there, and you
see more about the family, And there's

184
00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:15.720
the Christmas episode which has a million
cameos in it, and it's a little

185
00:14:15.759 --> 00:14:18.720
longer than thirty minutes, and there's
a lot of arguing. You know,

186
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:22.679
it's very Chicago, it's very the
family is stressful. Yeah, the way

187
00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:26.879
they communicate with one another is very
stressful. The kitchen scenes are stressful.

188
00:14:26.919 --> 00:14:30.120
I have a ton of friends that
work in that business, friends that are,

189
00:14:30.399 --> 00:14:33.519
you know, own catering companies,
friends that are chefs, friends that

190
00:14:33.639 --> 00:14:37.559
run restaurants, and a lot of
them said it's really hard for them to

191
00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:39.440
watch because it's kind of like they're
taking their work home with them. It's

192
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:41.679
like, dude, I don't need
to watch this. This is what I

193
00:14:41.720 --> 00:14:46.480
live every day, and they're nailing
it. They are absolutely nailing the restaurant

194
00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:48.960
scenes. So if you want to
know what it's like to work in a

195
00:14:50.039 --> 00:14:54.799
high pressure, fast paced kitchen,
kind of like the stuff that's described in

196
00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:58.799
board Aine's Kitchen Confidential, which I
don't know if you've ever read brilliant,

197
00:14:58.879 --> 00:15:01.919
brilliant, brilliant book, if you
ever, if you've had any interest in

198
00:15:03.399 --> 00:15:07.960
seeing what that's like. From all
estimations, the Bear nails it. It's

199
00:15:09.159 --> 00:15:11.759
so good. Season two is better
than season one. Agree, And now

200
00:15:11.799 --> 00:15:16.120
these shows are getting better. It's
kind of crazy. And number two for

201
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:20.480
me, all right, number one. I couldn't wait for this to come

202
00:15:20.519 --> 00:15:26.120
back out on Netflix. They took
a long time off it is one of

203
00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:31.799
the most unique crime shows that's out
there. I put this maybe I wouldn't

204
00:15:31.840 --> 00:15:35.159
say it's as good as The Wire, but if you like The Wire,

205
00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:39.120
I think you will like this show. It's called Top Boy. And this

206
00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:46.480
show is about a power struggle between
childhood friends that grow up together and they

207
00:15:46.519 --> 00:15:50.759
become leaders of an East London drug
empire. Okay, These two characters named

208
00:15:52.840 --> 00:15:58.399
Dushane and Sully childhood friends and they
they are in the game. And that's

209
00:15:58.440 --> 00:16:02.919
the that the deal, and it's
it's all about the power struggle. It's

210
00:16:02.919 --> 00:16:06.559
how they run their business. It's
how they don't see eye to eye.

211
00:16:06.600 --> 00:16:11.399
It's very uh, it's very much
like god, I can't even think of

212
00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:19.480
their names now anymore. String and
uh Stringer and I'm sorry, kill me

213
00:16:19.600 --> 00:16:26.399
too, Oh my god. Sorry, Come on, Stringer's partner in the

214
00:16:26.399 --> 00:16:33.759
Wire, not di'angelo. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah,

215
00:16:33.759 --> 00:16:36.960
Barks deal avon Sorry my god,
yes, okay, yes, it's kind

216
00:16:36.960 --> 00:16:40.000
of very much like that that where
they don't quite see eye to eye.

217
00:16:40.039 --> 00:16:42.360
One of them is real hard and
wants to do the whole street life thing

218
00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:45.080
and keep it real, and the
other guy wants to go more legit business.

219
00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:51.320
But man, the thing that's great
about this is it's not as broad

220
00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:55.000
as The Wire. Where's the Wire? You you know all of the cops,

221
00:16:55.080 --> 00:16:56.879
you know, all of the detectives, you know, all of the

222
00:16:56.919 --> 00:17:00.000
politicians in Baltimore. It's more about
the city. The Wire's more of a

223
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:06.480
study of a city and how complex
and corrupt it can be, from the

224
00:17:07.200 --> 00:17:11.359
lowest drug user in bubbles to the
mayor you know, and it covers every

225
00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:17.119
facet and every element in between.
That's sparity between those two. Top Boy

226
00:17:17.200 --> 00:17:21.680
focuses on these dudes, their crews, their families, not a lot about

227
00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:25.039
it a law enforcement But dude,
it's so good. And the last season

228
00:17:25.119 --> 00:17:30.119
finally dropped in twenty twenty three,
and the ending is one of the most

229
00:17:30.119 --> 00:17:37.799
unexpected, fantastic, somewhat controversial endings
of a TV series that I've seen in

230
00:17:37.839 --> 00:17:40.799
a long time. But if you
are into that kind of show, into

231
00:17:40.839 --> 00:17:42.720
the shows kind of like The Wire, Homicide, Life on the Streets,

232
00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:48.119
put on the subtitles, go to
Netflix and start watching Top Boy. You

233
00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:51.440
will not be disappointed. Someone texted
in Danny has a kink for women in

234
00:17:51.559 --> 00:17:56.440
uniform, doesn't he two different shows? He loves the cop ladies. What

235
00:17:56.599 --> 00:18:00.759
was the other one? I don't
know. Happy Vale, well, Happy

236
00:18:00.839 --> 00:18:03.599
Valley is like this an older woman. Yeah, it's not not that there's

237
00:18:03.640 --> 00:18:07.720
anything wrong with it has been anything
for you though, women in uniform at

238
00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:14.480
a number one for a succession on
HBO. I think I've taken too much

239
00:18:14.720 --> 00:18:18.119
of this and just related it directly
to the Jerry Jones family, because I

240
00:18:18.160 --> 00:18:22.960
think you can do that. You
have three kids, and the way Alan

241
00:18:22.039 --> 00:18:26.039
Ruck played kind of the fourth kid
who actually runs for president in the final

242
00:18:26.079 --> 00:18:29.559
season and gets nothing. But I
was like, if you want to make

243
00:18:29.599 --> 00:18:36.200
that Jerry's mystery daughter Alexandra, you
can. And I do think that there

244
00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:41.960
will be a battle similar to this
between Steven and Charlotte and maybe Jerry j

245
00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:45.440
Jean. You don't take his Jerry
Junior for whatever reason, we don't take

246
00:18:45.480 --> 00:18:49.200
it seriously. Bianks, Stephen Jones
and Charlotte are going to battle for Jerry's

247
00:18:49.200 --> 00:18:52.599
crown when it's time for Jerry to
go, and maybe Jeane gets it,

248
00:18:52.640 --> 00:18:57.240
I guess, But that is I
mean, I think the similarities in that

249
00:18:57.359 --> 00:19:02.799
I think there are very very clear, and I think the way they handle

250
00:19:03.039 --> 00:19:06.880
a big event that happens in that
final season was great. Yeah, and

251
00:19:06.920 --> 00:19:10.839
handle it differently than I had ever
seen and your hanging by the edge of

252
00:19:10.880 --> 00:19:15.279
your seat not knowing going into the
final episode who gets the company? And

253
00:19:15.519 --> 00:19:18.160
for them to hide that and conceal
that, and the way it ended up,

254
00:19:18.200 --> 00:19:22.519
I think was really good. So
succession number one for me because they

255
00:19:22.599 --> 00:19:25.200
just had a brilliant season. I
think in other years they wouldn't have been.

256
00:19:25.480 --> 00:19:26.720
You know, I like that show
a lot, probably top five.

257
00:19:27.279 --> 00:19:30.079
They nailed the final season they did
do that. You get points from me,

258
00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:33.119
Yeah, for sure that that could
have been number one. Any any

259
00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:36.839
one of mine, may you know, six out of the ten of mine

260
00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:41.680
could have been my number one.
I think like the best My favorite was

261
00:19:41.720 --> 00:19:45.279
Top Boy, but probably the best
show on my list. The best show

262
00:19:45.359 --> 00:19:48.920
is, in my opinion, is
The Bear. Yeah, it's just too

263
00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:52.759
good. It's too good for television. It's it's incredible. That's I'm going

264
00:19:52.799 --> 00:19:56.279
to rewatch that too at some point
we watch them all. If there's any

265
00:19:56.319 --> 00:19:59.640
that we've left out, Texas he
come in two and four, eight seven,

266
00:19:59.680 --> 00:20:03.319
eight seven, Well that will take
the place of what we normally have

267
00:20:03.039 --> 00:20:07.160
as Dingo's morning news. Don't apologize
to me it's good stuff, and I

268
00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:12.920
wanted to do this with you,
but I mean, at least we can

269
00:20:12.960 --> 00:20:17.119
go to the comic section, right, Who doesn't want another Christmas joke?

270
00:20:17.160 --> 00:20:18.880
It's Wednesday. We got today and
then two more and then I'm gone.

271
00:20:18.920 --> 00:20:26.720
Bitches, All right, here's your
joke. Everybody knows that Santa is a

272
00:20:26.759 --> 00:20:37.200
notorious ladies man. How has he
remained free of STDs for decades? Well,

273
00:20:37.559 --> 00:20:45.440
he always wraps his package before he
crams it into a chimney. What

274
00:20:45.519 --> 00:20:52.960
a dirty old man. He's Kevin
Turner. Shake that tiny d and thank

275
00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:56.640
you Santa, and thank you Andrew's
American Pizza Kitchen for sponsoring not only that

276
00:20:56.680 --> 00:21:00.559
segment, but especially that joke.
We all know you must be proud with

277
00:21:00.680 --> 00:21:06.880
any Let's continue our series this week
of handling the iHeart employee performance reviews.

278
00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:10.880
Jeff Cavanaugh and Julie Dobbs of The
Speakeasy will Zoom in. Next, we

279
00:21:10.960 --> 00:21:14.880
put them under the microscope and review
their twenty twenty three on ninety seven one three
