WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:04.120
Before we do anything, Mac,
just a quick reminder for the people at

2
00:00:04.120 --> 00:00:08.240
home. We'll be at Idle Hands
craft Aal's eight and nine Commercial Street in

3
00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:14.400
Malden, Massachusetts, this coming Wednesday, November eighth, for Disney trivia.

4
00:00:14.599 --> 00:00:18.960
Yep, if you have seen a
movie, most likely you've seen a Disney

5
00:00:18.960 --> 00:00:23.640
movie, So that qualifies you for
our trivia next week. And based on

6
00:00:23.679 --> 00:00:26.879
our last one, it might be
real competitive, because Disney ones always are

7
00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:30.160
anyways. But we had a tie
in the final lar in our last one,

8
00:00:30.199 --> 00:00:33.119
so maybe we'll end up with another
one this time. But looking forward

9
00:00:33.159 --> 00:00:37.280
to it now, it'll be mostly
animated, if not all animated. Uh,

10
00:00:37.399 --> 00:00:41.880
don't forget that pick Star will be
involved, and I wouldn't sleep on

11
00:00:42.039 --> 00:00:47.520
bed knobs and broomsticks. Wow,
a nice big market teas for the folks

12
00:00:47.560 --> 00:00:50.640
there. If that doesn't get the
kids there, I don't know what will.

13
00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:57.560
What do you think about the timing
of us doing Friends trivia three weeks

14
00:00:57.560 --> 00:01:02.920
ago Matthew Perry dying Do you think
it's really I would say absolutely, without

15
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:04.799
a doubt in my mind as a
matter of fact. Okay, all right,

16
00:01:04.840 --> 00:01:07.359
I just figured i'd how to ask
that. Yeah, well, Mac,

17
00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:11.040
as you may or may not know. I have a three year old

18
00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:18.359
son, and maybe the greatest perk
of having a child is now getting back

19
00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:23.640
into Legos. So do you mean
like buying legos? Are you actually now

20
00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:26.480
building them? Well, you buy
them and you build them. Usually you

21
00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:30.359
buy them for him and then you
build them. And you know, as

22
00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:33.519
a three year old, he's a
little psychopath that just takes everything apart.

23
00:01:33.560 --> 00:01:38.519
Immediately, You're gonna just start super
gluing random ones so he can't get them

24
00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:41.560
apart, right, And you know, born in nineteen eighty nine, we

25
00:01:41.719 --> 00:01:47.480
didn't really have the sets, like
the license sets of like all these great

26
00:01:47.560 --> 00:01:51.599
ips that now work with Legos.
So the world is my oyster. Yeah.

27
00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:56.680
I remember specifically my favorite set as
a kid was this castle one that

28
00:01:56.840 --> 00:02:00.280
came with its own like base that
was a non Lego base that you built

29
00:02:00.319 --> 00:02:04.400
on, and uh, I had
so much fun building that. I specifically

30
00:02:04.439 --> 00:02:07.800
remember I'm probably like days, if
not a week, ind of building it

31
00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:12.280
because you know, you are a
kid and you know stuff fall directions and

32
00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:16.800
whatnot. But I remember getting really
close like final pages of build that I

33
00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:21.080
pushed down too hard on one of
the walls and it like ripped open one

34
00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:23.639
of the walls and I had to
go all the way back. It was.

35
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:28.039
It was one of the more frustrating
memories I've ever had. Wait a

36
00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:31.199
second, was this the castle set
with the horses the nights? Yes,

37
00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:35.560
it's like a jail cell. Oh, that's the one that I had too.

38
00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:39.039
It was so good, but we
had it at my grandfather's house and

39
00:02:39.080 --> 00:02:42.879
he would only let us use it
if he was sitting there with us.

40
00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:46.159
I'm glad you mentioned the horses,
because now I have a vivid image,

41
00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:51.599
yes, of those Lego horses the
nights with the little the little plastic silver

42
00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:53.960
helmet, and there were some like
Glow in the Dark ghost too. Yes,

43
00:02:54.080 --> 00:02:58.039
it was spooky as shit. Exact
same set, yep. But I

44
00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:01.360
think the best thing about buying Lego
now is that when you buy them,

45
00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:07.000
the people that work at the Lego
store make you feel like you're smart,

46
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:10.759
like you're like you've done something really
good. Like the other day, great

47
00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:15.000
decision. Going with the other day, I bought a Christmas set. I

48
00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:19.520
have like fucking five Christmas sets now
because we're gonna, you know, build

49
00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:23.159
them up for December. That'll be
our new tradition. Legos at Christmas.

50
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:27.960
But as I was buying this one
hundred dollars set, the guy at the

51
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:30.719
register is like, great choice,
this is gonna sell out. It's a

52
00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:35.960
really smart idea, and I'm like, fuck, He's right, like,

53
00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:38.280
oh, is there anything else I
should get? I was like, what

54
00:03:38.479 --> 00:03:43.919
are there any more Christmas sets?
Do I need another one? What am

55
00:03:43.919 --> 00:03:59.599
I missing? One? Good?
Three? Yeah, jos three King of

56
00:03:59.680 --> 00:04:11.479
Queen Mill Street in Dame. Goo
and Mac and we're the Mac and Goo

57
00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:17.480
program. We bring you college friendship. I will say, now, uh,

58
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:21.839
you know, we both went to
uh colleges. One is still I

59
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:27.120
did not go to college. One's
still around, one is not. I'll

60
00:04:27.160 --> 00:04:33.199
let you decide who's disappeared. But
I have to say the four years I

61
00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:39.639
spent in college completely and fundamentally changed
me as a human being. I may

62
00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:46.519
never use my degrees ever again,
or ever one time, but the growing

63
00:04:46.600 --> 00:04:49.720
up experience alone, I think is
worth it for a lot of kids,

64
00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:53.920
a lot a lot of in the
same way, like some people grow up

65
00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:57.079
getting sent off to the military.
That's sort of what college was for me,

66
00:04:57.160 --> 00:05:01.439
just much more expensive. So something
that this series, the show does,

67
00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:05.839
we're talking about gen V today,
folks, is make the boys world

68
00:05:06.120 --> 00:05:10.720
a little more relatable. That was
one of the main things I really liked

69
00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:13.720
about this. Well, it's also
bigger, and you're you know, seeing

70
00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:16.720
more of like the minor league system
of what they're dealing with. Yes,

71
00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:20.160
for sure, there's there's a good
deal of world building going on here.

72
00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:24.800
GOO. Now, not to pull
too far behind the curtain of myself,

73
00:05:24.920 --> 00:05:30.600
but I did not go to a
traditional four year school, Mac. I

74
00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:32.480
was an electrician for a while.
I went to school for that. I

75
00:05:32.560 --> 00:05:35.839
then went to art school. But
as you said, you know, you

76
00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:41.279
kind of learned who you were and
your four year degree. I would say

77
00:05:41.279 --> 00:05:44.959
that if I were to have gone
to a normal college, a four year

78
00:05:45.079 --> 00:05:49.759
college, I might have died.
Well, I've always said I was deciding

79
00:05:49.920 --> 00:05:55.279
between so that I went to Assumption
College, Worcester, Massachusetts, decent school

80
00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:59.839
whatever. Nothing right home about what
I was deciding between was that and you

81
00:06:00.279 --> 00:06:02.959
Amherst, which is on the opposite
end of a spectrum, small private Catholic

82
00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:06.439
institution, massive, you know,
top ten party school in the country.

83
00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:09.879
I think I would have died if
I went to UMass. You and I

84
00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:15.600
both well said some real, really
questionable things. You knew me during my

85
00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:19.120
I would say rockier years. Yeah. Do you think that I would have

86
00:06:19.240 --> 00:06:23.199
survived the four years? No,
if you went to a place like UMass

87
00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:26.480
Amherst, most likely not. I
don't think I would have either. I

88
00:06:26.519 --> 00:06:30.360
think we both had moments where we
were doing dumb shit and drinking too much,

89
00:06:30.399 --> 00:06:33.680
as a lot of you know,
late teen, early twenties people do.

90
00:06:34.399 --> 00:06:39.399
But I think the relatable thing in
this show is not necessarily the university

91
00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:43.519
thing. Is a young person trying
to find their path, trying to figure

92
00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:47.040
out their meaning. And that's what
this show. That's the relatable aspect of

93
00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:51.319
this show for sure. And Mac
once again, this show is gen v

94
00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:57.120
It is a spinoff of The Boys, but you say spinoff, it's really

95
00:06:57.279 --> 00:07:01.560
more of an intertwined all was just
another season of the Boys, but with

96
00:07:01.639 --> 00:07:06.839
different characters. Yeah. When this
show was first announced, yeah, And

97
00:07:06.920 --> 00:07:11.199
even when I first started watching the
show eight weeks ago, and even when

98
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:13.959
we were talking about it four or
five, six, seven weeks ago,

99
00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:16.759
I was hoping for more spinoff and
less tie in. And now that we're

100
00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:21.519
at the end, it's basically another
season of the Boys, and I guess

101
00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:25.879
I'm glad it is at I was
at the end of it, and we'll

102
00:07:26.040 --> 00:07:29.519
get into this with spoilers, but
at the end of this, at the

103
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:32.639
end of my couch, I'm sitting
going, how are these guys gonna now

104
00:07:32.759 --> 00:07:36.360
play into the story? I didn't
know that I needed these people in that

105
00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:40.720
story, but now I'm like,
this is awesome. I agree. I

106
00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:44.480
agree. They fucking swerved us in
the hardest way in the finale, and

107
00:07:44.519 --> 00:07:47.800
I fucking loved that they did that
in a very in an insanely frustrating way

108
00:07:47.839 --> 00:07:51.199
that really only a show like The
Boys has been able to do before they

109
00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:55.680
do it again here and it's I
don't know. This show is just to

110
00:07:55.720 --> 00:08:00.240
me. I've said it before when
I finished episodes of this show, I'm

111
00:08:00.279 --> 00:08:03.560
like, man, there's nothing like
this on television. It's like head and

112
00:08:03.560 --> 00:08:05.800
shoulders above everything else, right now, give me nuts and bolts, all

113
00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:11.839
right? Gu Jen V is a
Prime video show. It is rated TVMA,

114
00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:15.560
It is all sorts of things,
but it has it listed here as

115
00:08:15.839 --> 00:08:18.720
an action, adventure, comedy,
drama in sci fi, which it is

116
00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:22.360
all of those things and does all
of those although I will say gou one

117
00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:26.519
of the distinguishing things between this in
a season of the Boys a lot less

118
00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:30.439
humor in this. There's some,
but a lot less. I would like

119
00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:35.559
there's a couple, yes, there's
no like really big laugh out loud moment.

120
00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:39.639
There's some funny moments, but nothing's
hilarious, and that's intentional. Gu

121
00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:43.039
This was eight episodes totaling about three
hundred and seventy five minutes, which he

122
00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:46.200
goes about forty seven minutes an episode, which is I think a very good

123
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:52.519
both the episodes eight and the runtime
length per episode forty five to fifty minutes

124
00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:56.159
is like the sweet spot. That's
perfect. I don't think we needed any

125
00:08:56.240 --> 00:08:58.639
more, and if we had gotten
less, I think we would have had

126
00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:03.639
more questions. I think they use
their time properly. I think you can

127
00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:07.639
say this about the first three seasons
of the Boys and this. When you

128
00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:11.360
finish the season, you're satisfied and
left wanting more. Yes, they've done

129
00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:16.399
it really good four times now,
although season two maybe not on the level

130
00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:20.000
of the Season two of the Boys
might have been the only one round.

131
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:24.720
I wasn't blown away by it.
I liked it, but I was like,

132
00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:28.360
Okay, that wasn't quite as good
as the newest feel of one.

133
00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:31.559
But then three brought you right back
into that the season two. When you're

134
00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:35.720
now looking back on it especially,
it feels there's like feels like we wasted

135
00:09:35.759 --> 00:09:41.080
some moments in there that there ended
up being meanless coo on Rotten Tomatoes.

136
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:46.679
Right now, GENV has ninety seven
percent from the critics, seventy five percent

137
00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:50.279
from the audience, which is bizarre. I don't know, and we saw

138
00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:54.799
this with Season three of the Boys, actually ninety eight percent from the critics,

139
00:09:54.799 --> 00:09:58.279
seventy five percent from the audience.
I don't know who's watching gen V

140
00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:01.720
that are mostly coming from the Boys
and not liking this. I don't understand

141
00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:05.080
that. How is a quarter of
the people not liking this? Is it

142
00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:07.919
a comic raider thing? Is there
a gen V comic? Doesn't it just

143
00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:11.000
mean the boy is We should have
looked that up, We should have looked

144
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:15.519
at I have no idea, but
it's weird, especially in contrast Season one

145
00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:18.879
of the Boys eighty five percent from
the critics, ninety percent from the audience,

146
00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:22.320
So nine tenths of the people at
that time liked it. So maybe

147
00:10:22.320 --> 00:10:24.559
it's just a volume thing. Maybe
more people are watching and now that could

148
00:10:24.559 --> 00:10:28.320
be that leads to less people like
it. Who knows? Season two.

149
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:31.799
That's why we get more one star
reviews because it's more people, that's all

150
00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:33.960
it is. It's the only rest
season two ninety seven percent from the critics,

151
00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:37.960
eighty two percent from the audience.
So we're seeing the critics are kind

152
00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:39.559
of all around the same these last
three ninety seven, ninety eight, ninety

153
00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:43.440
seven. The audience has been kind
of steadily going down. Yeah who.

154
00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:48.600
On Metacritic, this has a seventy
three compared to the three seasons of the

155
00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:52.480
Boys, which are seventy four for
season one, eighty for season two,

156
00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:56.120
which I think is actually like definitively
the worst season out of these four.

157
00:10:56.279 --> 00:10:58.639
I would say, yeah, but
I'd still have it on the Mount Rushmore.

158
00:10:58.960 --> 00:11:01.200
It's still in the same like roughly
in the same tier. You know,

159
00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:05.000
it's not that far off. That
was a good Rushmore joke. Becau's

160
00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:07.960
only four. It was only four
to choose. Thank you for explaining the

161
00:11:07.039 --> 00:11:11.320
joke. You know what I said
yesterday because someone said a joke and then

162
00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:13.840
no one laughed, And I'm like, if they don't understand the joke,

163
00:11:13.919 --> 00:11:18.519
they don't deserve to laugh. Season
three seventy seven. So again, all

164
00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:22.240
of these are operating and roughly the
same territory. Goo. This show a

165
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:28.120
bit different from The Boys, where
Eric Kripkey is the main show runner there,

166
00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:33.360
creator of the show. Of course, he was from Supernatural, he

167
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:37.000
created that show and Gou. He
also wrote that Clocky Walls movie which was

168
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:41.320
terrible There's a Clock in My Wall. And of course you know he's the

169
00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:43.399
main contributor there the Boys. It's
an even split here, at least as

170
00:11:43.399 --> 00:11:48.120
far as the credits go. Evan
Goldberg, Eric Kripkey and Craig Rosenberg.

171
00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:52.279
We know Evan Goldberg all too well
as well. He is Seth Rogan's writing

172
00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:56.600
partner. You'd know him from the
Ali g show, super Bad, Fineapple

173
00:11:56.639 --> 00:12:00.480
Express, this is the end.
He also did Preacher and Goo. He

174
00:12:00.600 --> 00:12:05.120
was the writer on TMNT Mutant Mayhem. That's a big win for you.

175
00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:09.320
Craig Rosenberg here is a little newer
to us. He wrote The Preacher and

176
00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:13.879
also has been writing The Boys.
So this show obviously is in very good

177
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:18.559
hands because the people that made the
Boys are making this show. Then,

178
00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:22.200
of course we have to mention The
Boys the comic book series, and I'm

179
00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:26.279
assuming gen V is based on the
comic book series by Garth Ennis, who

180
00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:33.600
obviously probably doesn't get enough credit that
he deserves. On our level, the

181
00:12:33.639 --> 00:12:39.120
show had seven directors, not worth
mentioning. I didn't the directing didn't help

182
00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:43.039
or hurt this show, so we'll
move on from that. Synopsis from the

183
00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:46.519
world of The Boys comes gen V, which explores the first generation of superheroes

184
00:12:46.799 --> 00:12:52.320
to know that their superpowers are from
compound V. These heroes put their physical

185
00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:56.679
and moral boundaries to the test competing
for the school's top ranking. Not a

186
00:12:56.720 --> 00:13:01.159
great synopsis for what actually happened,
but a good introduction and introduction to this

187
00:13:01.279 --> 00:13:05.919
show. Yeah, because early on
it really is, you know, feeling

188
00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:09.120
guilt for what it might for what
might have happened in your life, but

189
00:13:09.159 --> 00:13:13.159
then realizing that the people that you
feel guilty about, you know, doing

190
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:16.960
stuff too, they're the reason why
it happened, right, very good point.

191
00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:22.759
This show stars Jazz Sinclair is Marie
Moreau. Apparently there's an easter egg

192
00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:26.480
from The Boys season three where we
see her picture on a computer screen when

193
00:13:26.840 --> 00:13:31.080
Hughey's at the adoption agency or whatever. That's a nice little little easter egg.

194
00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:35.200
Chance Perdomo as Andre Anderson, Lizzie
Broadway as Marie's roommate Emma Meyer.

195
00:13:35.559 --> 00:13:41.320
Matty Phillips is Kate Dunlap London Thor
as Jordan Lee. Also Derek lewis Jordan

196
00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:43.879
Lee. This is the first time
I've ever seen a character like that.

197
00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:48.679
I really liked that. I don't. I don't. They don't necessarily explain

198
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:52.840
how those powers work, and that's
totally fine, but I really like that

199
00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:56.039
dynamic. Yeah, I think they'll
explain that one more. And then also,

200
00:13:56.240 --> 00:14:01.720
who is ant woman the that's m
Yeah, I want them to explain

201
00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:05.399
her stuff a little bit more because
you get something new in the final episode.

202
00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:09.879
Yeah, that is there more going
on here. Yeah, she's really

203
00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:13.159
still discovering and all these people are
really still discovering their abilities and honing them.

204
00:14:13.600 --> 00:14:18.440
Asa German as Sam Riordan Rorden Reardan. Is that how you pronounce that

205
00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:24.000
reardon? Sounds right to me.
That's our main crew of like god,

206
00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:28.240
you you know, young adults.
Yes, we also get Shelley Kahn as

207
00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:33.200
Dean and Deri Schetty. She was
pretty good. Alexander Calvert as Rufus.

208
00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:37.000
He is like the blonde telepath psychic
guy who has an incredible moment in the

209
00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:43.639
middle of this season. Maya Jay
Bastidas as Justine. She's the social media

210
00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:48.440
one that like dupes Emma at the
beginning, she bit yeah good. Patrick

211
00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:52.879
Schwarzenegger, the Arnie's son, plays
Golden Boy here. We expected him at

212
00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:56.799
the beginning of this season to play
a much bigger role ultimately than what he

213
00:14:56.840 --> 00:15:01.679
does, but a large role he
plays in the Theeless Sean Patrick Thomas's Polarity.

214
00:15:01.879 --> 00:15:07.120
That's Andre's father. Marco Pegosi as
doctor Edison Cardoza. He's the one

215
00:15:07.240 --> 00:15:11.720
in the Woods laboratory sort of working
on this whole thing. Dan Byrne plays

216
00:15:11.759 --> 00:15:16.000
social media Jeff. He's the one
that is sort of in charge of dealing

217
00:15:16.039 --> 00:15:22.559
with all the god you top ten. Clancy Brown as Professor rick Rich brinker

218
00:15:22.559 --> 00:15:28.200
Off. He mates an incredible demise
demise early on. Cooby Minifie pops up

219
00:15:28.200 --> 00:15:31.399
as Ashley Barrett in a couple episodes. We also get three cameos here that

220
00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:35.879
they're not spoilers because they were well
known. Claudia Dumitt as Victoria Newman,

221
00:15:37.120 --> 00:15:41.039
Jensen Eccles as Soldier Boy, and
Anthony starrs Homelander. I would say of

222
00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:46.639
those three if we didn't know the
Homelander one that would have been probably pretty

223
00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:50.120
good, but everything's spoiled these days. I didn't like his haircut. It

224
00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:52.960
was a little different. It was
a little off. Okay, all right,

225
00:15:52.080 --> 00:15:54.679
Well maybe he's been busy. You
never know. Yeah, good.

226
00:15:54.840 --> 00:16:00.879
I'm gonna give a synopsis for what
this season really was. As to introduction,

227
00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:06.120
we are introduced to the world of
The Boys from a new perspective.

228
00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:10.000
We now get to see what it's
like to sort of live in this world

229
00:16:10.080 --> 00:16:12.000
as a non superhero. You get
some of that in The Boys, but

230
00:16:12.120 --> 00:16:18.159
these are young adults who aren't operating
as superheroes. And this is especially important

231
00:16:18.159 --> 00:16:22.480
because now all of these young adults, these kids, these adults know that

232
00:16:22.559 --> 00:16:27.559
the only reason they have these powers
or curses is because their parents opted to

233
00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:32.080
sign up with Vought and give them
Compound V as a baby. That's a

234
00:16:32.159 --> 00:16:37.600
huge change from the prior Boys seasons, where obviously that's revealed. In season

235
00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:41.799
three, we are particularly focused on
Goadulkin University aka God You and our main

236
00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:48.519
protagonist Marie Moreau, whose powers include
are really just are being able to manipulate

237
00:16:48.559 --> 00:16:52.960
blood into whatever she wants and what
she can imagine, and during the season

238
00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:56.960
as it goes on, she does
greater things with that. The university itself

239
00:16:57.000 --> 00:17:00.120
is run by Vot, who we
know is a really bad que operation anyways,

240
00:17:00.320 --> 00:17:03.559
but we come to find out they're
even worse than we imagined and are

241
00:17:03.640 --> 00:17:10.279
running like these wild tests and experiments
on children in the secret basement laboratory of

242
00:17:10.319 --> 00:17:15.880
the university known as the Woods.
Marie and her friends discover and uncover the

243
00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:19.119
secret of the Woods and attempt to
reveal it to the world and bring justice

244
00:17:19.119 --> 00:17:23.039
to those who have done poorly,
done bad. They're really bad, guys.

245
00:17:23.960 --> 00:17:26.799
That's pretty good, Mac, thank
you, thank you, goe.

246
00:17:27.079 --> 00:17:33.000
Any other opening thoughts before we do
the Octagon, just to like capture like

247
00:17:33.079 --> 00:17:37.079
I think some people this is This
was my attitude going into the season.

248
00:17:37.359 --> 00:17:40.240
I thought it was gonna be a
tier below the Boys. I thought it

249
00:17:40.279 --> 00:17:41.519
was just gonna be like a nice
little add on. It'll be fun to

250
00:17:41.839 --> 00:17:45.480
keep playing in that world. But
this is this really belongs in the boys.

251
00:17:45.519 --> 00:17:49.319
Conversation, Like, it's not it's
not of lesser quality. It's it's

252
00:17:49.400 --> 00:17:55.359
up to snuff with the Boys.
It doesn't have the high highs as we've

253
00:17:55.359 --> 00:17:57.920
seen the Boys, but the pacings
really good in this. The writing's really

254
00:17:57.960 --> 00:18:04.839
good, and it's definitively more serious
throughout, but that's intentional and for good

255
00:18:04.880 --> 00:18:07.599
reason. Especially. I don't know
if it'll be as serious as we go

256
00:18:07.640 --> 00:18:11.799
on, but season one it needed
to be. I think some people might

257
00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:15.319
say it's maybe it's the fourth best
out of these four seasons. No,

258
00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:17.920
it's just fine, but it still
belongs to that conversation. I think I

259
00:18:17.960 --> 00:18:21.960
would have it ranked third of the
four we've seen so far. Dude,

260
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:26.000
do you want me to tell you
what our dog scores were for the other

261
00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:27.400
three seasons or wait a little bit, No, tell me, because I

262
00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:30.559
have completely forgot. Okay, I
did the research on this one, Goude.

263
00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:34.240
This is the real legwork I did
here. Season one of the Boys,

264
00:18:34.440 --> 00:18:38.440
we both gave thirty eight hot dogs, so I really loved it.

265
00:18:38.799 --> 00:18:44.400
Didn't quite get to forty. Season
two, I gave it borderline thirty five

266
00:18:44.480 --> 00:18:48.519
thirty six. You gave it thirty
seven, So definitely a drop I think

267
00:18:48.599 --> 00:18:51.440
a smidge high for me. I
would drop it. I would halloween it

268
00:18:51.480 --> 00:18:55.240
a little bit. Yeah, I
think thirty five thirty six is right there.

269
00:18:55.480 --> 00:18:57.319
Season three, we both had it
at thirty nine. Really wanted it

270
00:18:57.359 --> 00:19:00.359
to be forty Yeah, it just
fell as midge short, but I think

271
00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:06.359
we both agreed it was the best
of the three seasons. This season is

272
00:19:06.400 --> 00:19:11.480
not forty Dogs, but I say
a tease, I think it's above season

273
00:19:11.559 --> 00:19:15.960
two. It's somewhere in between season
two and seasons one and three. I

274
00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:18.920
think I'll probably do one. I
think I like the seasons one and three

275
00:19:18.920 --> 00:19:22.200
of The Boys more than this season, but not by much. All right,

276
00:19:22.200 --> 00:19:25.880
mac, let's get into the octagon
here. And the first one up

277
00:19:26.000 --> 00:19:30.640
is fun factor and what I found
to be very fun And at first you're

278
00:19:30.680 --> 00:19:36.000
like, these powers are gross,
but they end up being pretty cool,

279
00:19:36.559 --> 00:19:41.480
and they're very teenage oriented, where
you know, one of the characters has

280
00:19:41.519 --> 00:19:48.200
to cut themselves to use her powers, or one has to binge or overeat

281
00:19:48.519 --> 00:19:52.279
and that also plays with her emotion
as well, so that's another thing that

282
00:19:52.359 --> 00:19:56.759
kids deal with. And then you
know gender stuff, so like there's there's

283
00:19:56.799 --> 00:20:00.880
a lot of what their powers are
heavy stuff actually growing up stuff. Yes,

284
00:20:02.079 --> 00:20:04.920
yeah, yeah, so that cuts
into the fun factor for sure,

285
00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:08.759
especially when you wait against some of
the shit we've seen in the three scenes

286
00:20:08.759 --> 00:20:12.200
of the Boys. But I find
myself and I sort of alluded to this

287
00:20:12.240 --> 00:20:17.440
at the top. I just have
fun operating in this world as a viewer,

288
00:20:17.680 --> 00:20:22.640
even though the on screen stuff isn't
necessarily fun. This show is so

289
00:20:22.839 --> 00:20:27.200
much different than everything else that I'm
watching that I have fun watching it satisfactor,

290
00:20:27.240 --> 00:20:32.000
and I didn't think I was gonna
be this satisfied by the end of

291
00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:34.680
the season. I agree with you, Gou. I am pretty damn satisfied

292
00:20:34.680 --> 00:20:38.000
with the end of the season and
still wanting more. They did it again,

293
00:20:38.039 --> 00:20:41.920
they crushed it, boromed or were
you bored? I wasn't bored,

294
00:20:42.079 --> 00:20:48.240
but I didn't necessarily love. I
think there was like one or two missteps,

295
00:20:48.240 --> 00:20:51.519
and we'll get into that and spoilers, but I wasn't bored. Yeah,

296
00:20:51.559 --> 00:20:55.920
there's a couple storylines in here that
maybe don't hit as well as others.

297
00:20:56.799 --> 00:21:00.319
But I felt like the pacing was
really strong, maybe the most well

298
00:21:00.400 --> 00:21:03.680
paced of the four seasons so far. Equator, It's better than Aquaman.

299
00:21:04.039 --> 00:21:11.119
Yeah, Fox Show Halloween. Two
of the seasons have not Halloween for me,

300
00:21:11.160 --> 00:21:14.240
but one has, so it's tough
to say if this one will as

301
00:21:14.240 --> 00:21:18.039
well. Yeah. So this it
is does have a little bit of Season

302
00:21:18.119 --> 00:21:25.039
two in that, like Season two
now looking back almost serves as like a

303
00:21:25.079 --> 00:21:26.839
build up for season three. They
kind of push off a lot of the

304
00:21:26.839 --> 00:21:32.240
Homelander stuff into season three. This
doesn't push anything off, but it really

305
00:21:32.279 --> 00:21:36.039
just serves to build into The Boys
season four. So there might be some

306
00:21:36.240 --> 00:21:38.319
wien Wayne, you know what,
I think it weens or Wayne's I don't

307
00:21:38.319 --> 00:21:41.000
even know what the fuck the word
is, but I think it drops off

308
00:21:41.640 --> 00:21:47.920
if they don't use these characters in
the other show, Like if it doesn't

309
00:21:47.960 --> 00:21:52.039
intertwine as much as we think it
will. Yeah, and we were told

310
00:21:52.559 --> 00:21:55.759
prior to this finale that this will
set up The Boys season four, and

311
00:21:55.799 --> 00:21:59.880
The Boys Season four will play directly
into gen V season two. Yeah,

312
00:21:59.880 --> 00:22:03.079
but now that I'm saying that after
you just said that, if these characters

313
00:22:03.079 --> 00:22:07.359
get buried until gen V season two, that's gonna be a little disappointed.

314
00:22:07.519 --> 00:22:11.440
I would say so pants, Stan
City, Excite, bike Mania, did

315
00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:15.559
anything get you going? So it
does not quite reach the highs of the

316
00:22:15.559 --> 00:22:21.880
Boys. However, there are three
or four spectacular scenes during this season that

317
00:22:22.440 --> 00:22:26.359
like just make you grin with laughter, Like not that they're funny, but

318
00:22:26.359 --> 00:22:30.079
they're so cool or so good that
you have a shitting grin on your face.

319
00:22:30.400 --> 00:22:33.440
I don't want to say any of
them because they're spoilers, but they're

320
00:22:33.440 --> 00:22:37.400
great. Like if I asked you
for a top ten from these four seasons

321
00:22:37.519 --> 00:22:41.680
moments like you know, excite bike
Mania moments, Yeah, would there be

322
00:22:41.799 --> 00:22:45.519
one from this show? I think
maybe two? Maybe two? Okay for

323
00:22:45.599 --> 00:22:48.759
sure one maybe two? Max Credit
Union? Who are you giving credit to?

324
00:22:49.160 --> 00:22:52.799
I gotta give credit to the creators. Now, listen. All the

325
00:22:52.000 --> 00:22:57.519
actors are good in here, but
the creators to maintain the wide vision and

326
00:22:57.559 --> 00:23:04.279
to introduce this new story and these
new characters while not cheapening or lessening anything

327
00:23:04.319 --> 00:23:08.039
in this world, is truly impressive. This really does fit in and then

328
00:23:08.119 --> 00:23:11.240
some with the Boys, I mean
really the creators, the writers, the

329
00:23:11.279 --> 00:23:17.039
actors portraying the characters. What I
love the most about this show is that

330
00:23:17.720 --> 00:23:19.799
I think it might have been episode
seven where I sat back and said,

331
00:23:19.799 --> 00:23:25.880
wait a second, who am I
rooting for? I had completely forgot that

332
00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:30.720
the soups that we have in the
Boys are complete pieces of shit and they're

333
00:23:30.720 --> 00:23:33.359
pretty much the bad guys, and
you're rooting for the Boys, And then

334
00:23:33.640 --> 00:23:37.640
episode seven I'm like, wait a
second, should I be rooting for this

335
00:23:37.720 --> 00:23:44.759
person? Right? Right? It's
one of those rare shows where you simultaneously

336
00:23:45.680 --> 00:23:48.519
kind of like and kind of hate
everyone. Everyone's kind of a bad guy

337
00:23:48.519 --> 00:23:52.680
except for a few, but the
good people are also doing kind of bad

338
00:23:52.720 --> 00:23:56.039
stuff. No, the person that
was operating as the bad guy in this

339
00:23:56.160 --> 00:24:00.720
show was actually operating just like the
boys were operating. So you're like,

340
00:24:00.799 --> 00:24:04.839
wait, no, that person is
actually the good guy. I think right.

341
00:24:04.920 --> 00:24:08.559
And then in episode seven and eight, when they pit the friend group

342
00:24:08.599 --> 00:24:11.359
that we've been rooting for this whole
time, I guess each other, You're

343
00:24:11.359 --> 00:24:15.200
like, ah, fuck, I
kind of agree with both sides here.

344
00:24:15.240 --> 00:24:22.480
This is pretty good, but also
neither side. Yes, right for those

345
00:24:22.519 --> 00:24:25.359
of you tardy to the Mac and
Go party, we rate everything on a

346
00:24:25.400 --> 00:24:27.759
forty hot dog rating system. Mac. Like I said, I wish it

347
00:24:27.799 --> 00:24:33.519
would have been a little bit funnier, but also it didn't need it to

348
00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:34.960
be funnier. I think it would
have just got pushed more to like a

349
00:24:36.000 --> 00:24:40.480
forty dog potential with a little more
humor. I really really liked this.

350
00:24:41.039 --> 00:24:45.680
There was a one issue I had
with the intrigue of the show where they

351
00:24:45.119 --> 00:24:49.000
kind of gave us something maybe a
half an hour too soon, and they

352
00:24:49.000 --> 00:24:53.119
could have let it be a little
more organic and like play into the story

353
00:24:53.119 --> 00:24:57.319
as opposed to just giving us something. Like I said, I love the

354
00:24:57.400 --> 00:25:02.000
off putting powers. I think that
that plays really well with the teen focus.

355
00:25:02.359 --> 00:25:04.440
Marie is a great character. I
love her as a leading character.

356
00:25:07.160 --> 00:25:12.640
You realize that Homelander might be the
best case scenario. Homelander like he understands

357
00:25:12.680 --> 00:25:18.599
the game and he understands what he's
doing, where there could be a more

358
00:25:18.720 --> 00:25:26.839
unhinged you know completely what is uh
No, Stormfront. Stormfront was the representation

359
00:25:26.920 --> 00:25:30.599
of that, but I think we
got another character here that is even more

360
00:25:30.039 --> 00:25:34.200
like even someone that that doesn't understand
how to play the game or how to

361
00:25:34.240 --> 00:25:37.519
manipulate people. It's just he has
the powers and he doesn't know what to

362
00:25:37.559 --> 00:25:41.160
do with them, where that's a
lot more of like a bright burn,

363
00:25:41.440 --> 00:25:45.720
right, Yeah, exactly. So
I really like that I have this at

364
00:25:45.720 --> 00:25:48.279
thirty seven hot Dogs. Oh goode, it's fucking what makes it similar that

365
00:25:48.319 --> 00:25:53.000
makes us great and that's why people
hate us. To sort of make up

366
00:25:53.039 --> 00:25:57.079
for the lack of humor, yeah, which The Boys definitely contains pretty much

367
00:25:57.119 --> 00:26:03.920
every episode this show did was make
the subject matter a little more relatable as

368
00:26:03.000 --> 00:26:07.279
much as you could operating in a
world with soups and villains like this.

369
00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:12.440
It was just it was cool to
see the world building here and widening our

370
00:26:12.480 --> 00:26:18.799
scope and I just like watching everything
in this world. Now. It does

371
00:26:19.000 --> 00:26:25.599
really serve mostly as a lead in
for season four of The Boys, So

372
00:26:25.680 --> 00:26:27.640
it does. It does. That
does knock it down a little bit because

373
00:26:27.640 --> 00:26:33.480
I feel like it lacks a major
banger at the end here, and it

374
00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:38.319
also may lack that rewatchability, so
I'm trying to gauge that now. However,

375
00:26:38.839 --> 00:26:42.720
I loved pretty much every episode.
It was not boring at all.

376
00:26:44.359 --> 00:26:48.119
There's some great moment like it's just
I have a hard time finding stuff bad

377
00:26:48.400 --> 00:26:52.559
or stuff that I didn't like.
It was more so it just didn't quite

378
00:26:52.640 --> 00:26:56.039
get up to eleven in some of
the moments like the Boys do. So

379
00:26:56.160 --> 00:27:00.480
I also have this at thirty seven
hot Dogs. But it could it could

380
00:27:00.559 --> 00:27:03.799
weigh in a little bit if it
just operates more as the world builder and

381
00:27:03.839 --> 00:27:07.680
you don't really want to come back
and rewatch some stuff. Let me ask

382
00:27:07.720 --> 00:27:11.640
you a question. I know at
Wes b or Sideman West. I'm not

383
00:27:11.640 --> 00:27:14.960
sure what his Twitter handle is at
the moment, his ex handle, but

384
00:27:15.000 --> 00:27:19.319
he brought up Seth Rogan, you
know, and how he's really played into

385
00:27:19.359 --> 00:27:23.480
so many comic book properties. If
I were to ask you, if I

386
00:27:23.720 --> 00:27:27.920
nominated him to get into the Dork
Hall of Fame next year, would you

387
00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:32.880
vote him in? I mean,
it'd be hard to turn him down.

388
00:27:32.920 --> 00:27:37.319
I will say, I think he's
an EP on this show. He's got

389
00:27:37.359 --> 00:27:41.640
nothing to do with the creation more
or less. So wouldn't you have to

390
00:27:41.640 --> 00:27:45.720
prioritize prioritize Goldberg over Rogan? Though? But you're looking at it like he's

391
00:27:45.759 --> 00:27:55.079
the EP producer on like This Invincible
Preacher TMNT. So he has his hands

392
00:27:55.160 --> 00:28:00.160
and so it seems like he's really
good at in most most create I won't

393
00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:04.160
say this, uh, I was
gonna say, call him DJ Khaled,

394
00:28:04.599 --> 00:28:07.039
No, no, no, Okay. There's a lot of people that are

395
00:28:07.119 --> 00:28:12.160
uber talented that have a really hard
time stepping out of the way and selecting

396
00:28:12.160 --> 00:28:17.119
people or teaching people, showing people. It seems like Seth Rogan knows when

397
00:28:17.160 --> 00:28:19.240
to step in and step out,
knows the higher of the right people,

398
00:28:19.559 --> 00:28:22.839
and really cares about stuff so much
so that he knows that he's not the

399
00:28:22.880 --> 00:28:27.400
best at something like he very easily
could have probably kicked the door down and

400
00:28:27.480 --> 00:28:32.160
been a writer on this season,
and he wasn't. So you got to

401
00:28:32.200 --> 00:28:34.519
give him credit for like getting out
of the way and just sort of making

402
00:28:34.559 --> 00:28:38.720
things go. And that one of
the best things about Steven Spielberg in the

403
00:28:38.799 --> 00:28:42.359
last thirty years. Yes, he's
a great director. He's really good at

404
00:28:42.400 --> 00:28:48.279
making things go, funding projects,
helping out on projects, but stepping back

405
00:28:48.319 --> 00:28:51.960
and not directing, not writing things. It's a really underrated thing that a

406
00:28:52.000 --> 00:28:55.759
lot of people don't do in the
industry. Shall we get into spoilers,

407
00:28:56.079 --> 00:28:59.759
let's do it? Spoiler silence,
spiler, spoiler. I guess the first

408
00:28:59.759 --> 00:29:00.960
and that I would like to point
out, and I've kind of made reference

409
00:29:02.000 --> 00:29:06.079
to it a couple times. I
think it might have been episode five when

410
00:29:06.119 --> 00:29:10.839
it was revealed that who is the
touchy girl with the hand Kate? So

411
00:29:10.960 --> 00:29:14.880
when it was revealed that Kate was
pretty much behind most of what was happening

412
00:29:14.920 --> 00:29:18.680
all along, Yep, she's the
one that makes everyone forget. They gave

413
00:29:18.720 --> 00:29:21.920
it away like a half an hour
or two soon, like the so we

414
00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:25.240
found out before the characters found out. I wish that we found out with

415
00:29:25.279 --> 00:29:29.559
the characters. Yep. No,
that's that's fair because there's a whole little

416
00:29:29.559 --> 00:29:33.839
cat and mouse chase during that whole
episode, and you know before the characters

417
00:29:33.920 --> 00:29:37.839
do you also were suspicious of Kate
anyways because of a couple of things that

418
00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:44.039
happened in prior episodes. But I
think it it It works because you don't

419
00:29:44.119 --> 00:29:48.920
want that to be a major wow
moment because she still has to want it.

420
00:29:48.079 --> 00:29:52.200
I wanted to make still has to
function as a part of the group

421
00:29:52.680 --> 00:29:56.400
going forward. So for the viewer, if that's a major wow moment,

422
00:29:56.720 --> 00:30:00.240
it's really hard to accept her as
a part of that group going forward.

423
00:30:00.359 --> 00:30:03.759
I would have liked it. Also, I loved her hand being blown up.

424
00:30:03.000 --> 00:30:07.480
Oh so that's one of the two
My two favorite moments during the season.

425
00:30:07.599 --> 00:30:11.279
Yes, was blonde dude's cock getting
blown off. That was incredible,

426
00:30:11.599 --> 00:30:15.400
and then in the moment because Marie
is still figuring out what she can and

427
00:30:15.440 --> 00:30:19.039
can't do, which is also an
awesome thing. In episode seven, you

428
00:30:19.200 --> 00:30:23.359
learn that Victoria and Newman's power is
the same as Marie, so we knew

429
00:30:23.400 --> 00:30:27.000
her as the head popper, but
really what she can do is manipulate blood,

430
00:30:27.319 --> 00:30:32.880
so we know in the endgame,
other than Homelander Victoria Newman's probably the

431
00:30:32.880 --> 00:30:36.200
most powerful, and that means Marie's
gonna be at the top of the food

432
00:30:36.240 --> 00:30:40.079
chain too, which is really cool
to think about and really interesting to think

433
00:30:40.079 --> 00:30:44.000
about going forward. But we see
her greatest moment here in the finale,

434
00:30:44.480 --> 00:30:48.759
her preventing Kate from Who's she going
to reach out to? Andre? I

435
00:30:48.799 --> 00:30:55.519
believe was it andre? And I
forget who she's going out to reach.

436
00:30:55.599 --> 00:30:59.720
But Marie can't get there and doesn't
have time to cut her own blood or

437
00:30:59.759 --> 00:31:03.599
you more blood, which she had
used in the scene right before, But

438
00:31:03.039 --> 00:31:07.480
she explodes Kate's arm, and it's
fucking awesome. It's so cool. Do

439
00:31:07.559 --> 00:31:11.119
you think if Homelander, By the
way Homelander shows up at the end,

440
00:31:11.119 --> 00:31:12.519
he's like, what are you an
animal? You're attacking your own kind?

441
00:31:12.799 --> 00:31:19.240
Do you think if he knew how
potentially powerful Marie was or is, he

442
00:31:19.279 --> 00:31:23.960
would have tried to kill her as
opposed to just kind of knock her out.

443
00:31:25.200 --> 00:31:27.680
Well, that's the question in the
back of my mind that's been lingering

444
00:31:27.720 --> 00:31:33.240
now for two seasons of The Boys
at least, and now this season.

445
00:31:33.759 --> 00:31:37.720
Can Victoria Newman kill Homelander if she
wanted to? Possibility? I think there's

446
00:31:37.720 --> 00:31:44.319
a possibility, so that means Marie
could, hypothetically but maybe that the Homelander

447
00:31:44.880 --> 00:31:48.079
cameo at the end of this season. I was i was thrown off at

448
00:31:48.079 --> 00:31:51.319
first by his dialogue. I'm like, wait, what the hell's going on

449
00:31:51.359 --> 00:31:53.759
here? And then you fucking remember
that they're so good at swerving, you

450
00:31:53.839 --> 00:31:57.440
like, they come in and of
course Vot's behind this trying to protect their

451
00:31:57.480 --> 00:32:02.319
own ass. That's a truly great
swerve. Homelander shows up. And if

452
00:32:02.319 --> 00:32:06.839
they didn't bring Homelander in, you
would have been would have been asking where

453
00:32:06.880 --> 00:32:08.279
the hell he is, like we
do a lot of the times in these

454
00:32:08.279 --> 00:32:13.880
in these Marvel shows, the Marie
and Friends get her crew gets framed for

455
00:32:13.920 --> 00:32:16.160
all the killings they got locked away
in this room facility, no windows,

456
00:32:16.200 --> 00:32:21.440
no doors. I love this so
much because it's incredibly frustrating, but in

457
00:32:21.480 --> 00:32:23.240
the best way, and that's what
this show does so well. Do you

458
00:32:23.279 --> 00:32:29.599
look at Schwarzenegger in this role much
like Drew Barrymore and scream It's a lot

459
00:32:29.640 --> 00:32:34.400
like that, because as far as
people build for this show, even though

460
00:32:34.440 --> 00:32:37.559
we don't know many things he's done. Him being on Schwarzenegger's son, you're

461
00:32:37.599 --> 00:32:42.519
like, Oh, he's probably fit
for a big role, and then episode

462
00:32:42.559 --> 00:32:45.400
two culminates in him un aliving himself. I guess my biggest question from this

463
00:32:45.519 --> 00:32:52.559
season is do you believe that Ryan
Homelander's son would go to God you or

464
00:32:52.680 --> 00:32:55.160
would he Lebron James it and just
skip it's a Lebron James thing. I

465
00:32:55.160 --> 00:32:59.440
don't think they need to expose Ryan
to any of that. They just need

466
00:32:59.519 --> 00:33:02.359
him to and learn from Homelander.
And moreover, like, if you put

467
00:33:02.440 --> 00:33:07.160
him into that population, he could
potentially be poisoned. And I think by

468
00:33:07.240 --> 00:33:13.039
letting a Homelander handle him, hopefully
he turns into another Homeland. That's what

469
00:33:13.079 --> 00:33:16.160
they're hoping for. But I think
the obvious downside there is he grows to

470
00:33:16.640 --> 00:33:21.599
hate Homelander. And your favorite part
of the season was when Aunt Girl was

471
00:33:21.640 --> 00:33:25.519
on the dick, right, that's
unbelievable Episode one. Just as they did

472
00:33:25.519 --> 00:33:30.720
in season three of The Boys,
the opening where you have someone who can

473
00:33:30.720 --> 00:33:35.720
shrink down inside of a penis,
this time we have Emma basically giving a

474
00:33:35.759 --> 00:33:38.279
full body hand job at the tip
of a penis. It was unbelievable job

475
00:33:38.319 --> 00:33:44.960
the visuals. This is an all
time great having to explain yourself show.

476
00:33:45.079 --> 00:33:47.359
If someone walked into the room at
certain moments of the show, you have

477
00:33:47.400 --> 00:33:51.960
to like pause the show and explain
what you're watching because it's so fucked up.

478
00:33:52.119 --> 00:33:54.160
I guess would you recommend this to
somebody? I would recommend this to

479
00:33:54.240 --> 00:33:59.759
a lot of people, but it
would have to like anyone that listens to

480
00:33:59.799 --> 00:34:02.960
our podcast, I think would should
watch this show if they haven't. But

481
00:34:04.359 --> 00:34:07.679
this would be a hard one to
recommend to, like your parents or something.

482
00:34:07.719 --> 00:34:10.480
People that aren't maybe not my parents, but your dad. As in

483
00:34:10.559 --> 00:34:15.679
general, like people that aren't aren't
a customed are accustomed to like outright explicit

484
00:34:15.800 --> 00:34:22.559
sexual stuff and violent stuff, like
the generation above us may not be as

485
00:34:22.679 --> 00:34:25.480
open to this show as ourselves in
the generation below us. You know what

486
00:34:25.559 --> 00:34:30.360
though, Like I wouldn't recommend the
boys to my brother, but I would

487
00:34:30.400 --> 00:34:34.320
recommend this to them. Oh that's
interesting, Okay, Well yeah, so

488
00:34:34.400 --> 00:34:40.960
this definitely has more heart to it
underneath, because I think Marie is the

489
00:34:42.000 --> 00:34:45.840
most likable character out of any of
the characters we've been introduced to, and

490
00:34:45.880 --> 00:34:50.320
part of that is because she hasn't
been given the chance to commit a lot

491
00:34:50.360 --> 00:34:53.039
of the shitty the acts that we've
seen the people and the boys commit,

492
00:34:53.360 --> 00:34:57.119
but I think her being the heart
of the show helps it a ton.

493
00:34:57.280 --> 00:35:02.039
This is also just a dirty WB
show. Do you think that people who

494
00:35:02.079 --> 00:35:09.119
make the DC WB show CW shows, Yeah, or even the DC HBO

495
00:35:09.199 --> 00:35:13.719
Max shows. And you know what, the people that make the Marvel Disney

496
00:35:13.719 --> 00:35:17.119
Plus shows sit back and go fuck
fuck, Like, I wish we could

497
00:35:17.159 --> 00:35:22.440
do this. I wish this was
us because this show knocks it out of

498
00:35:22.440 --> 00:35:27.119
the park better than any Marvel show, any DC show. Like as much

499
00:35:27.119 --> 00:35:32.159
as you love the Netflix Daredevil shows, and as much as we love Loki

500
00:35:32.440 --> 00:35:37.679
season one, which I guess would
probably be our best Marvel show, this

501
00:35:37.840 --> 00:35:43.400
is definitively better than those. Yeah. So if I'm picking superhero shows,

502
00:35:43.559 --> 00:35:45.239
I'm going to The Boys number one, I think. And this is just

503
00:35:45.280 --> 00:35:47.840
off the top of my mind.
I haven't really really thought it out.

504
00:35:49.039 --> 00:35:54.599
Yeah, the Boys, then Daredevil, then Loki. Trying to think like

505
00:35:54.639 --> 00:35:59.280
that might be what it is if
you wanted to do individual seasons, like

506
00:35:59.320 --> 00:36:01.760
you could probably prop up a Daredevil
season, the first season of Loki,

507
00:36:01.800 --> 00:36:07.719
even Jeff Shones season one. But
on the whole, nothing has been consistently

508
00:36:07.760 --> 00:36:10.719
as great as this I would agree
with you. I would completely agree Mac.

509
00:36:10.800 --> 00:36:14.199
Do you want to run through some
episodes? Yeah, well, just

510
00:36:14.239 --> 00:36:16.239
real quick we run through the season. So the first episode, God you

511
00:36:16.280 --> 00:36:21.679
we get introduced to Marie her backstory
which is horrible like that, it immediately

512
00:36:21.719 --> 00:36:23.280
gets you behind her and can you
roof for her? And you feel sad

513
00:36:23.320 --> 00:36:29.000
for her? You get like Godulkin's
introduction and whatnot. Episode two, First

514
00:36:29.079 --> 00:36:31.400
Day, This is where Golden Boy
on a lives himself and you get a

515
00:36:31.400 --> 00:36:37.079
really cool fight scene between Golden Boy, Jordan and some other characters. My

516
00:36:37.119 --> 00:36:40.920
hands are up, both my hands
id go. Also credit to Amazon giving

517
00:36:42.000 --> 00:36:45.159
us three episodes out the gate.
Yeah, and they've done that with every

518
00:36:45.199 --> 00:36:46.760
Boys. That was great. Yes, good, good call on that.

519
00:36:46.920 --> 00:36:52.599
I agree. Episode three, Think
Brink hashtag think Brink. This was called

520
00:36:52.119 --> 00:36:55.639
this is where they do the tribute
to the Professor Clancy Brown, who they

521
00:36:55.639 --> 00:37:00.199
call Brink. But what really happens
in this episode is all of the characters

522
00:37:00.199 --> 00:37:04.519
are trying to figure out why the
fuck that happened, and of course it's

523
00:37:04.519 --> 00:37:07.119
because of the Woods his brother Sam. That leads into episode four, The

524
00:37:07.159 --> 00:37:10.719
Whole Truth. This to me was
probably the worst episode of the season.

525
00:37:10.800 --> 00:37:15.039
But was still pretty good. Ted
Knight comes sniffing around, he interviews everyone,

526
00:37:15.320 --> 00:37:20.119
and it really just serves as a
way to get from characters from point

527
00:37:20.119 --> 00:37:22.400
A to point B, and of
course Marie ends up getting all the credit

528
00:37:22.480 --> 00:37:28.880
for defeating Golden Boy. Also,
Sam is the character that could be a

529
00:37:28.920 --> 00:37:31.880
Homelander or have a homelander like strength, but he's a bit on hinge.

530
00:37:31.920 --> 00:37:37.000
He doesn't understand entirely what's going on. Yeah, we don't know his full

531
00:37:37.079 --> 00:37:42.960
capabilities or what he's weak to really, so that is him and Marie as

532
00:37:43.000 --> 00:37:45.800
far as soups and powers go,
easily two of the Morning. I will

533
00:37:45.840 --> 00:37:50.280
say though, there was a part
in episode eight where he was closing a

534
00:37:50.400 --> 00:37:54.320
door at the at the camp whatever
it's called, and it looked like he

535
00:37:54.440 --> 00:37:58.159
was straining to close the door.
Im like I thought he was strong.

536
00:38:00.480 --> 00:38:05.719
Episode five Welcome to the Monster Club. This is the episode where it's the

537
00:38:05.719 --> 00:38:07.960
cat and mouse game. We find
out Kate's actually the one that made everyone

538
00:38:08.000 --> 00:38:12.039
forget, and they all find out
towards the end of this episode, which

539
00:38:12.079 --> 00:38:15.760
leads into episode six, the very
aptly named Jumanji. Because everyone gets stuck

540
00:38:15.800 --> 00:38:20.880
in Kate's memories, but they also
intertwined some of the other people's memories in

541
00:38:20.920 --> 00:38:22.480
there, which is pretty cool.
And this is where we got the Soldier

542
00:38:22.480 --> 00:38:25.960
Boy cameo as well, which was
that was one of the funnier moments.

543
00:38:27.039 --> 00:38:29.760
It was, but also just kind
of a throwaway. Yeah, yep,

544
00:38:29.840 --> 00:38:31.800
that was just to say, hey, here's Jensen Echles as Soldier Boy.

545
00:38:32.440 --> 00:38:37.039
And then do episode seven they really
ramp up. Seven and eight were phenomenal.

546
00:38:37.480 --> 00:38:40.719
Episode seven sick now that they're all
working together. They've accepted Kate because

547
00:38:40.719 --> 00:38:45.320
they learn how truly shitty her life
was too. We see them going to

548
00:38:45.400 --> 00:38:50.920
attack the Woods and free everyone there, and we learned that Shetty and the

549
00:38:50.920 --> 00:38:54.760
Woods have been developing this virus or
weapon to use against the Soups, which

550
00:38:54.800 --> 00:38:59.199
is the major ramification from the season. This is the part of the season

551
00:38:59.360 --> 00:39:01.679
I'm like, ah shtty. I'm
like, oh wait, no, he's

552
00:39:01.679 --> 00:39:06.679
trying to control the Soups right,
wait, the Soups like Homelanders out of

553
00:39:06.760 --> 00:39:08.239
hand, and like this might be
the only way to do it. Yeah,

554
00:39:08.239 --> 00:39:10.480
that was the part where I'm like, okay, wait a second,

555
00:39:10.920 --> 00:39:15.079
right, I am rooting for her. Yeah. Also, I don't care.

556
00:39:15.719 --> 00:39:19.079
Yeah, it's it's truly they do
such a good job of it because

557
00:39:19.079 --> 00:39:23.599
you're right, from the three thousand
yard view, she's doing the right thing.

558
00:39:23.719 --> 00:39:27.960
Probably, Yeah, you know,
now the I don't know if the

559
00:39:28.079 --> 00:39:30.920
ends justify the means, but ultimately
that might be the only way to take

560
00:39:30.920 --> 00:39:36.440
down a Homelander. And that's really
because we really like our four main characters.

561
00:39:36.480 --> 00:39:37.559
We like Sam, we like all
these and then you're like, oh,

562
00:39:37.559 --> 00:39:42.320
wait a second, they might turn
into much like Kate does, like

563
00:39:42.360 --> 00:39:45.280
into the rest of the soups.
And so what happens in the comic skew

564
00:39:45.639 --> 00:39:52.559
is Billy Butcher utilizes that virus to
take out Homelander, but it also takes

565
00:39:52.599 --> 00:39:54.719
on all the soups, and that's
I think that's how the comic ends or

566
00:39:54.960 --> 00:40:00.400
something to that effect. So that
like it's interesting, sing dynamic because we

567
00:40:00.559 --> 00:40:05.400
like watching what's going on. But
ultimately there has to be an endgame here

568
00:40:05.440 --> 00:40:07.880
in this series, and it might
be like the comic book, it might

569
00:40:07.920 --> 00:40:16.519
be along this virus ready for this
what Oh. Also in this episode,

570
00:40:16.519 --> 00:40:22.920
pretty loaded episode, Victoria Newman pops
up and we learned that horror in Marie

571
00:40:22.840 --> 00:40:24.239
got it. Yeah, I get
it. Her and Marie have the same

572
00:40:24.280 --> 00:40:28.280
powers and so when you see that, you're like, oh, holy fuck,

573
00:40:28.360 --> 00:40:30.880
Like, you know, Marie doesn't
know her full potential. But then

574
00:40:30.880 --> 00:40:35.559
when you realize her potential is Victoria
Newman, you're like, but also,

575
00:40:35.679 --> 00:40:37.480
we should have known this when she
blew up the dick. Yeah, but

576
00:40:37.519 --> 00:40:40.840
you didn't really put because new because
you were so focused on the dick.

577
00:40:44.719 --> 00:40:47.239
That's the other thing this show gives
us. We're always clamoring for more cocks,

578
00:40:47.280 --> 00:40:51.159
and we get it in this show. More cock after watching this,

579
00:40:51.199 --> 00:40:54.679
and it's a lot like after watching
like the later seasons of Game of Thrones,

580
00:40:55.079 --> 00:40:59.960
where like they don't really show boobs
anymore. It's pretty much just dick.

581
00:41:00.480 --> 00:41:05.239
It's cockcentric. It's a lot of
television. Yeah, it's mostly cox.

582
00:41:06.000 --> 00:41:09.679
So Newman takes the virus off the
hands of I forget who she kills

583
00:41:09.679 --> 00:41:14.000
in the parking lot there, Oh
Cardoza, the last Oh, that was

584
00:41:14.039 --> 00:41:16.159
another part that I was like,
Nah, it's kind of stupid. He

585
00:41:16.199 --> 00:41:20.519
walks into the office and just says
what the plan is? Yeah, what

586
00:41:20.679 --> 00:41:28.000
is this fucking scooby doo? And
we also learn that and this is something

587
00:41:28.039 --> 00:41:31.920
you sort of might have thought about
aside, did Schetty reveals shortly before Kate

588
00:41:32.039 --> 00:41:37.159
has her on alive herself. That
God You was created by Vaught just as

589
00:41:37.159 --> 00:41:40.639
a way to study soups and figure
out basically how to beat them and learn

590
00:41:40.639 --> 00:41:44.519
more about them and their powers.
And then of course you get the great

591
00:41:44.559 --> 00:41:49.800
scene where Kate forces Shetty to kill
herself and the group is divided amongst them,

592
00:41:50.000 --> 00:41:52.119
amongst whether that's the right thing to
do or not. Oh also,

593
00:41:52.280 --> 00:41:58.880
I might have been in episode four
or five, but Sam running through the

594
00:41:58.960 --> 00:42:04.039
hall and destroy those puppets fantastic scene. Phenomenal. I'm glad you brought that

595
00:42:04.119 --> 00:42:07.079
up. I can't believe we almost
didn't mention that. The puppet fight scene

596
00:42:07.119 --> 00:42:09.039
I thought was amazing. Maybe maybe
some people didn't like it, but I

597
00:42:09.039 --> 00:42:12.719
thought it was fucking awesome, really
cool, fantastic, loved it. And

598
00:42:12.719 --> 00:42:15.639
then when it cuts back, like
when you're out of his mind and you

599
00:42:15.719 --> 00:42:19.280
see like all the gor you're like, oh, that's pretty fucking We get

600
00:42:19.280 --> 00:42:23.000
to the finale here and amongst the
group, it's Sam and Kate on the

601
00:42:23.000 --> 00:42:27.960
same side because they seem to have
been the most tortured by the Woods and

602
00:42:28.039 --> 00:42:31.599
Vought, so they're there. And
then you have Marie Emma and Jordan not

603
00:42:32.000 --> 00:42:37.960
wanting to basically become who they hated, so that's the split, andres off

604
00:42:37.960 --> 00:42:42.559
at the hospital with his dad,
Sam and Kate go and free all the

605
00:42:42.719 --> 00:42:47.599
kids from the woods, and that
leads to pretty phenomenal death chaos. Yeah,

606
00:42:47.719 --> 00:42:52.119
chaos is the word. Absolute chaos. On campus, we do learn

607
00:42:52.119 --> 00:42:57.639
that Hollow Boys Translucent Sun, which
the Internet kind of figured out very early

608
00:42:57.719 --> 00:43:01.079
on, and then we get the
great scene of Marie popping Kate's arm,

609
00:43:01.119 --> 00:43:05.280
which was really cool, yeah,
because you didn't know what was gonna come

610
00:43:05.280 --> 00:43:08.800
of that scene and that happens,
and then immediately after Homelander comes flying in

611
00:43:08.880 --> 00:43:12.960
and you're like, oh, what's
gonna happen here? Because to your point,

612
00:43:13.039 --> 00:43:17.800
do we they you don't really know
which way it's gonna go because they've

613
00:43:17.880 --> 00:43:22.199
muddied the water so much, so
you don't know if Homelander's gonna come and

614
00:43:22.239 --> 00:43:24.360
fuck Kate up or fuck Marie up. What's he do? He lays her

615
00:43:24.360 --> 00:43:28.559
eyes, Marie and somehow she survived. Well, I was gonna ask so

616
00:43:29.480 --> 00:43:35.440
was his laser set to stun or
did he try and kill her? And

617
00:43:35.559 --> 00:43:38.320
she just has the ability to take
that heat breath if you will. I

618
00:43:38.400 --> 00:43:43.960
think she is so powerful, okay
with the blood stuff, that she's able

619
00:43:44.079 --> 00:43:47.400
to move or put herself back together. Like I think as long as her

620
00:43:47.440 --> 00:43:52.880
brain is working, she's able to
sort of like help because so almost like

621
00:43:52.920 --> 00:43:57.039
a wolverine, where like even if
like one part of him is still alive,

622
00:43:57.079 --> 00:44:00.280
he could regenerate. And I think
if her brain is functioning, she

623
00:44:00.320 --> 00:44:02.400
can kind of make everything come back
together. And that's why she was trying

624
00:44:02.400 --> 00:44:07.440
to save Shetty in the episode before. So we get this great swerve with

625
00:44:07.480 --> 00:44:12.440
Homelander, and then we see the
news reports of these four have now been

626
00:44:12.480 --> 00:44:15.760
pinned with all the killings on campus. They're framed for that, and then

627
00:44:15.800 --> 00:44:19.480
they're locked away in a room or
facility that has no windows or doors.

628
00:44:19.480 --> 00:44:22.920
So that actually makes me believe,
well, it doesn't make me believe.

629
00:44:23.519 --> 00:44:29.079
You have to wonder if they're in
a room with no windows or doors,

630
00:44:29.920 --> 00:44:31.559
is that are they in someone's head? Is that Kate's head? Like,

631
00:44:32.320 --> 00:44:36.280
how the fuck would they have gotten
in there. It's a good, really

632
00:44:36.280 --> 00:44:39.840
weird thing. But I loved this
finale so much because it swerved me.

633
00:44:40.320 --> 00:44:45.760
It was frustrating, but in a
good way for the story's sake, there's

634
00:44:45.840 --> 00:44:50.000
just no show doing that as well
as The Boys is doing it. Right

635
00:44:50.039 --> 00:44:54.280
now, let me also ask you
the character that was pretty much Nightcrawler,

636
00:44:54.440 --> 00:44:59.760
that was like telepathing to like different
spots. Yeah, he was just going

637
00:44:59.800 --> 00:45:02.320
like three feet forward every time,
right, Like he wasn't really Yeah,

638
00:45:02.320 --> 00:45:06.679
I was like, this fucking stinks. So maybe that's how they get them

639
00:45:06.719 --> 00:45:08.719
inside that room too. No,
No, I think it's it's more that

640
00:45:08.760 --> 00:45:12.360
they were just pointing out how dumb
that power is. Yeah, yeah,

641
00:45:12.400 --> 00:45:15.360
but he also is fucking dope.
But he couldn't get out of his celf,

642
00:45:15.400 --> 00:45:19.360
so I don't know why. Yeah, that his power is not great.

643
00:45:19.719 --> 00:45:22.039
And then we get a mid credit
scene here with Billy the Butcher him

644
00:45:22.119 --> 00:45:29.039
walking into like the remains of the
woods. Oh bloody aale. But clearly

645
00:45:29.079 --> 00:45:31.199
that means those four aren't at the
Woods. They're at a different facility,

646
00:45:31.320 --> 00:45:36.360
number one, but number two.
This sort of plays into what may be

647
00:45:36.519 --> 00:45:39.119
the conclusion of the series, which
echoes the conclusion of the comic book series

648
00:45:39.239 --> 00:45:44.960
where he gets his hand on the
virus and basically ends everything. Uh,

649
00:45:45.119 --> 00:45:47.519
but this show just leaves me wanting
more. Yeah, it's it's so rare

650
00:45:47.599 --> 00:45:51.920
to have that in a show,
and obviously all the best shows do do

651
00:45:52.039 --> 00:45:54.599
that. But I just I fucking
love this this world, this show.

652
00:45:54.920 --> 00:45:58.960
We keep saying, I guess it's
not one and the same as as The

653
00:45:58.960 --> 00:46:04.679
Boys because it is called Envy,
but for for homekeeping stuff, this is

654
00:46:04.880 --> 00:46:07.679
essentially The Boys. No, And
I think this show really does show that

655
00:46:07.840 --> 00:46:13.760
it's not just the characters in The
Boys that we love, it is this

656
00:46:13.880 --> 00:46:19.760
world because this was more of a
murder mystery as opposed to being that action

657
00:46:19.880 --> 00:46:22.519
comedy. Yeah, and that's a
good point too. You know. Season

658
00:46:22.559 --> 00:46:27.280
one is sort of the shock and
awe getting to see this stuff for the

659
00:46:27.280 --> 00:46:32.320
first time, and we're introduced to
a real or a quasi real world scenario

660
00:46:32.679 --> 00:46:37.039
like what might happen if Soups were
alive in our world? Where you get

661
00:46:37.079 --> 00:46:42.119
the corporate America and how corrupt it
can all be. And that season kind

662
00:46:42.119 --> 00:46:44.960
of lacks a big bang at the
end too, which keeps it from being

663
00:46:45.000 --> 00:46:49.199
forty ish. And then season two
we get that stuff but sort of kicked

664
00:46:49.239 --> 00:46:51.960
up a notch, but they sort
of kick the can down the road with

665
00:46:52.039 --> 00:46:54.280
Homeland or you get the storm Front
stuff, and really they're just trying to

666
00:46:54.320 --> 00:46:59.519
keep Ryan from Homelander all season and
then at the end, Ryan kills his

667
00:46:59.599 --> 00:47:04.039
mother and Butcher's love. We also
learned Newman's the head popper in that season,

668
00:47:04.559 --> 00:47:07.679
But that season really lacked the pants
tent for me compared to season one

669
00:47:07.719 --> 00:47:12.079
or season three. I think that
season just lacks the newest feel that the

670
00:47:12.119 --> 00:47:15.360
first season had. Yeah, there's
some of that too, and then season

671
00:47:15.360 --> 00:47:19.599
three they flip it and reverse it. Yeah, they're trying to flip flip

672
00:47:19.920 --> 00:47:24.159
the game on its head Philadelphia.
They're trying to finally defeat Vaughten Holmlander.

673
00:47:24.880 --> 00:47:29.320
The annoying part and I think what
keeps that from being a forty dog season

674
00:47:29.920 --> 00:47:32.360
is everyone's still alive at the end. Right now, You're like, how

675
00:47:32.400 --> 00:47:36.880
the fuck is that possible? It
doesn't make a lot of sense other than

676
00:47:36.920 --> 00:47:39.920
you want to make another season three
as well. So Anthony Starr has been

677
00:47:39.960 --> 00:47:44.920
great throughout all of these, but
in season three especially, he was amazing.

678
00:47:45.119 --> 00:47:49.119
He was so good and it really
marked You see it a little bit

679
00:47:49.159 --> 00:47:52.880
with the storm front stuff, but
he is actually asked to do some nuance

680
00:47:53.000 --> 00:47:57.159
acting and he does. As season
one he doesn't have Season one, he's

681
00:47:57.440 --> 00:48:00.679
unhinged. One note character but that
changes from season two. I think it

682
00:48:00.760 --> 00:48:05.679
was either no, it was it
was honest trailer. So screen junkies that

683
00:48:05.800 --> 00:48:09.800
pointed out that Homelander Anthony Starr is
like the best jaw actor. Yeah,

684
00:48:09.960 --> 00:48:14.840
you see you see his jaw back
here like constantly muscles movie. Yeah,

685
00:48:14.880 --> 00:48:17.880
and you're like, wow, what's
this guy fixture? Yeah. The main

686
00:48:17.920 --> 00:48:22.119
takeaway from season three is like,
all right, we're nearing a conclusion.

687
00:48:22.199 --> 00:48:25.559
Yeah, and I'm super excited to
see Soldier Boy Versus Homelander volume two.

688
00:48:27.159 --> 00:48:30.880
And now, as an addendum to
that, I'm super excited to see how

689
00:48:30.239 --> 00:48:35.719
are God you characters and this virus
play into it all. Now, they

690
00:48:35.760 --> 00:48:42.320
have not announced a Boy season five, but you would have to think based

691
00:48:42.320 --> 00:48:46.079
on there being a genv season two, that season four leads into that there's

692
00:48:46.159 --> 00:48:51.840
going to be a Boys season five. Yes, absolutely so. Thirty seven

693
00:48:51.880 --> 00:49:00.239
hot dogs. Thirty seven hot dogs. I feel good about that. Let's

694
00:49:00.239 --> 00:49:05.960
get into Macack. Mac Sac could
be anything, It could be a boat

695
00:49:06.079 --> 00:49:10.719
and Mac. We are just three
days removed from Halloween. I went trick

696
00:49:10.800 --> 00:49:15.840
or treating with my son, my
cousins, their kids, and when we

697
00:49:15.920 --> 00:49:19.679
got back to their house, I
did sneak a piece of candy from my

698
00:49:20.000 --> 00:49:24.320
son's ooh piece Halloween bucket, and
I decided to take a Three Musketeers bar.

699
00:49:24.440 --> 00:49:28.840
And I was ridiculed and mocked by
everyone at the house. Yeah,

700
00:49:28.920 --> 00:49:30.840
thank god they did that. They
gotta put your line and go. Listen,

701
00:49:30.920 --> 00:49:34.559
you can like a three Musketeers.
That's not what we're talking about here.

702
00:49:34.880 --> 00:49:38.199
It's opting for the Three Musketeers over
the much superior options there, which

703
00:49:38.199 --> 00:49:43.159
you clearly did. Mac. Do
you like chocolate? I actually I don't

704
00:49:43.239 --> 00:49:45.840
love chocolate. I really don't.
Okay, so you're the problem. Listen.

705
00:49:46.000 --> 00:49:50.239
I fully admit if you want to
chalk chocolate, I'm not your guy.

706
00:49:50.559 --> 00:49:55.119
I'm more of a skittle sweets over
the sugary stuff over the chocolate stuff.

707
00:49:55.639 --> 00:49:58.840
But even if you want to get
on the chocolate stuff, Like,

708
00:49:59.360 --> 00:50:04.239
there's no way in hell that you
could choose the Three Musketeers over reeses or

709
00:50:04.320 --> 00:50:07.199
twigs. You just couldn't do it. I would imagine that when they were

710
00:50:07.239 --> 00:50:13.719
creating the Three Musketeer, they already
had the outer chocolate shell and they're like,

711
00:50:14.079 --> 00:50:15.639
what should we put in here?
Like, oh shit, we only

712
00:50:15.679 --> 00:50:22.280
have more chocolate, but not enough
fluff it up. It's it's hot dude.

713
00:50:22.400 --> 00:50:23.880
Hear me out on this. It's
the hot dog of candy Bars.

714
00:50:24.079 --> 00:50:28.920
They just get a casing and they
just push in whatever's left over. You

715
00:50:28.920 --> 00:50:30.880
know what I like hot dogs?
I like three Musketeers. So you might

716
00:50:31.039 --> 00:50:36.000
not get is the hot dog of
candy bars. Listen, you can eat

717
00:50:36.039 --> 00:50:38.960
it. It's good. But if
you claimed that the hot dog was the

718
00:50:38.960 --> 00:50:44.800
best sausage or brought worst, you'd
be fucking smacked. I guess before we

719
00:50:45.440 --> 00:50:50.239
tell people where they can find us. Also in your sack, you should

720
00:50:50.239 --> 00:50:57.280
go ahead and donate. You gotta
give to r von d Ryan Davies November

721
00:50:57.320 --> 00:51:02.480
page. Now, I don't want
to make anyone have I don't want to

722
00:51:02.480 --> 00:51:06.000
make anyone do some more work,
but I think that would be a good

723
00:51:06.159 --> 00:51:09.519
edit for billyd to do. Is
the Calco cut pants with you gotta give

724
00:51:09.559 --> 00:51:15.239
for Davy's November? Yeah, absolutely
so, Mac and I we used to

725
00:51:15.239 --> 00:51:17.800
do our own pages. But if
you're just giving to November in general,

726
00:51:17.880 --> 00:51:22.079
that I don't whatever. It's all
the same charity. And we both already

727
00:51:22.079 --> 00:51:27.679
have mustaches, so you're I'll tell
you my mustache is fine. It's not

728
00:51:27.800 --> 00:51:31.960
good. It's not bad. It's
fine your mustache, You're just facial hair

729
00:51:32.000 --> 00:51:37.880
grows in way better. But your
mustache, the volume you have is unprecedented.

730
00:51:37.960 --> 00:51:39.519
You know what's crazy is that my
facial hair grows in like shit,

731
00:51:40.159 --> 00:51:44.599
but the mustache grows in well.
And that's why I have it. So

732
00:51:44.679 --> 00:51:46.320
if you grow at a beard,
because it does look it looks like you

733
00:51:46.320 --> 00:51:50.119
have some of the missing spots that
I do. Yeah, I got mine's

734
00:51:50.119 --> 00:51:52.079
a little more up here for the
missing spots, but yeah, I have

735
00:51:52.280 --> 00:51:58.519
the I have the Marv from Home
alone missing patches. Granted, I think

736
00:51:58.599 --> 00:52:01.880
Daniel Stearn shaves it that way.
I don't choose to have this. It

737
00:52:02.000 --> 00:52:06.079
just takes a circular shaver. It
just hits those two spots. Also,

738
00:52:06.159 --> 00:52:09.280
I think Josh Donaldson also has that
same type of beard, so I think

739
00:52:09.280 --> 00:52:13.119
it's a pretty common thing. Yeah. Yeah, we're just little boys.

740
00:52:14.719 --> 00:52:16.280
Where can the people find us?
Mac? You can find us on Twitter

741
00:52:16.280 --> 00:52:20.559

750
00:52:50.199 --> 00:52:54.360
or head over to my other shop. That's a chunky. Nopeh no,

751
00:52:54.480 --> 00:52:58.280
it is still called that's a chunky. We haven't changed it yet. We're

752
00:52:58.280 --> 00:53:00.920
supposed to change it to us shirt
brothers. That would make more sense.

753
00:53:01.000 --> 00:53:04.679
Yeah, maybe we'll do that.
Maybe I'll do that right after we hit

754
00:53:04.719 --> 00:53:07.079
the stop button. Dude, when
when do you plan on putting your Christmas

755
00:53:07.119 --> 00:53:12.800
tree up? I am putting it
up. So today is Friday. I

756
00:53:12.840 --> 00:53:15.039
am putting it up on Saturday.
Yeah. I had a feeling that was

757
00:53:15.039 --> 00:53:19.440
going up soon. I'm putting it
up tomorrow. I actually cleaned out the

758
00:53:19.480 --> 00:53:24.840
area. I'm very excited to do
this. My cousin who you know,

759
00:53:24.880 --> 00:53:29.280
my nieces and nephews, my god
son, god daughter. She put hers

760
00:53:29.360 --> 00:53:31.280
up. Might have been November first. She might have done it on November

761
00:53:31.320 --> 00:53:35.320
first. Yeah, no, I
would have if so. We usually do

762
00:53:35.360 --> 00:53:37.800
it the first Sunday, and we
just started doing this last year actually because

763
00:53:37.880 --> 00:53:44.039
usually it was the Sunday before Thanksgiving, but then it was ether last year

764
00:53:44.079 --> 00:53:45.519
maybe during COVID year. But my
wife was like, do you want to

765
00:53:45.519 --> 00:53:49.159
put it up now? And it
was the first Sunday after Halloween. I'm

766
00:53:49.159 --> 00:53:52.639
like, fucking yes, I do. No question is I mean, I

767
00:53:52.639 --> 00:53:54.320
guess if you spend money on a
nice fake tree, you might as well

768
00:53:54.360 --> 00:53:58.639
fucking display we have a nice fake
tree. And also I'm so you know

769
00:53:58.760 --> 00:54:01.679
that I have my Christmas I have
the perfect nook for a Christmas tree?

770
00:54:01.719 --> 00:54:05.800
Do have a great nook for a
Christmas tree? That entire hallway now is

771
00:54:05.840 --> 00:54:08.679
the Christmas hallway. I bought so
much shit. The best part about your

772
00:54:08.760 --> 00:54:13.199
nook, yeah, is like you
you get that corner there that you live

773
00:54:13.239 --> 00:54:15.360
on, and like people can see
from the street too, so it's kind

774
00:54:15.360 --> 00:54:19.239
of cool. Yeah, it's beautiful. I also bought I forget what it's

775
00:54:19.239 --> 00:54:22.719
called. It might be like light
shower or something like that. But you

776
00:54:22.760 --> 00:54:25.559
put it in your lawn and it
just blasts laser lights all over your house.

777
00:54:27.079 --> 00:54:30.119
Oh yeah, you're gonna have to
upload a photo of that when you

778
00:54:30.159 --> 00:54:32.039
put it in. But the issue
is, I just saw the as scene

779
00:54:32.079 --> 00:54:36.119
on TV. It looks like people
that usually buy them by like three or

780
00:54:36.159 --> 00:54:38.880
four and I only have one.
Yeah, and it's not like you're or

781
00:54:38.920 --> 00:54:42.679
the property you live in a small
either, so you might need a couple

782
00:54:42.719 --> 00:54:45.920
of those. I live in a
mansion. I didn't know how to say

783
00:54:45.920 --> 00:54:51.119
that without sounding like a dickhead I
live in. I would say, yeah,

784
00:54:51.119 --> 00:54:52.679
it's a normal size too, family, No, it's it's yeah,

785
00:54:52.679 --> 00:54:57.000
it's a it's not a small apartment
in house you live in it. But

786
00:54:57.320 --> 00:55:00.639
yeah, yeah, if you call
it big, it makes sound like your

787
00:55:00.639 --> 00:55:06.119
fucking daddy Warbucks. I am Daddy
Warbucks. But also I'm curious if this,

788
00:55:06.360 --> 00:55:09.079
uh, if this laser light will
blast through the window or be deflected

789
00:55:09.079 --> 00:55:14.039
by the glass if you aim it
at your Christmas tree window though really doesn't

790
00:55:14.039 --> 00:55:15.920
matter. Well, I'm gonna be
aiming it at my house and I wouldn't

791
00:55:15.960 --> 00:55:20.719
be upset if it blasts through because
my cousin lives on the first floor.

792
00:55:21.000 --> 00:55:25.119
If it just blasts light through their
house. It'd be really funny. It'd

793
00:55:25.119 --> 00:55:30.679
be like Kramer and Seinfeld. You
just you hear some ruckus, you peek

794
00:55:30.719 --> 00:55:35.440
out, and Sip is just ripping
the thing in half. All right,

795
00:55:35.480 --> 00:55:37.800
So that'll do it for this episode. Here, we'll do a news dump

796
00:55:37.880 --> 00:55:43.079
on Monday. I'll already tease her
right now. There are Marvel rumors of

797
00:55:43.199 --> 00:55:46.800
foot and then maybe next week we
can do Loki. Maybe we'll do that,

798
00:55:46.920 --> 00:55:50.519
although you have a thing, so
maybe we'll figure it out. Well,

799
00:55:50.559 --> 00:55:53.119
we got to get to Loki and
the Marvels both next week, both

800
00:55:53.159 --> 00:55:58.039
next Friday technically, and we didn't
get a screening for the Marvel so I'm

801
00:55:58.079 --> 00:56:00.719
curious did they get back to you
that no one responded to me. Wow,

802
00:56:00.960 --> 00:56:04.880
that's gonna be real annoying. Yeah, and I leave for Hawaii in

803
00:56:04.920 --> 00:56:07.840
like nine days, ten days,
so that's going to be a crunch.

804
00:56:07.960 --> 00:56:12.639
I know, Max go to live
there, all right. They have great

805
00:56:12.760 --> 00:56:15.639
they have great internet there. That's
why I'm moving there. Tuesdays or gusdays.

806
00:56:15.639 --> 00:56:24.360
I have used Kangaroo. I please
flip the cassette over to side B

807
00:56:24.599 --> 00:56:25.800
to continue the adventure.
