Sina. Pals. What is up, guys? It's Chris Sazepino, joined today by Mr. Michael Boost. Hello, hello. Hey, hey, without further ado. Let's get started. That'll do it. That'll do it.

Oh, he's going to get a new puppy. Get new puppy. He's going to stay full. It's exactly like the old one. Oh, no, it's a cute little pity. Oh, baby. Babies. We're going to save his life.

Hi. Oh, my gosh. It's okay. Let's go. I think pitties are just the cutest dogs. I have a pity. Oh, what a precious bee. Look at it.

It's like... Look at it. Oh. straight up right off the gate I hated this movie no no no wait wait let me finish it I'm strapping in in the beginning okay right out the start

I honestly wanted to walk away if I was at home and I wasn't watching this right now with you I would have turned it off I wouldn't have finished it I would because it hurt my soul with what this Derek wrote I'm so mad at you Derek I but you see why

you see why he used it because like that's such a great inspiration He could have done it so differently, but, but, damn, what a badass film, man. It was good. It was good. And you know what? In a weird way, like, yes, I hate it as much as I hated it. The way he did this, Dirk.

Just the more sauce that just put on his name every time you say it. I cannot not give you credit for riding this so beautifully. It was very well written. Yes. You use this pepper. you ended up like you just put these layers of like and there's your mental there's something wrong with you you need to go see a doctor and you're twisted and like honestly like well done sir but i don't like you but i love your film also at the same time i don't know that's just me and i love this world i know the establishment of like this world is like so cool and they leave you with more questions yes but you want to be a part of this one yeah it's mysterious i like it a lot It's really cool. Honestly, it was really cool.

I love, and even though it's like predictable, I feel like it was still fun and lovable. Like, you wanted more. Yep. And I loved how everybody just knew John Witt. Yeah, right. And he came back. He didn't have to announce himself. He just established himself.

And they're like, okay, he's a weaker version. But yeah, he's not. No. He's not to be trifled with. No, exactly. And I love my favorite. My favorite scene was when John, the car guy, calls Michael

the Virgo Oh yeah Vigo In the film The car guy calls the main man And he's like I heard you stroke my son And he goes Yes I did

And he had no fear Yeah no zero fear This is his boss This is the boss And he has come and he's like Sck right But he's like this is my wife He goes yeah I did

And he's like He go and he's like basically like No he stole John Wick's car And you know And in that moment, I love the silence of, oh. And he just, there's nothing. It just dies. It's like an understanding of this world, this whole new world outside of reality that he hangs up.

And he's like, oh my gosh, the devil's been released. Yeah, right. Like, we're all going to die. Jeannie's out of the bottle now, boys. I think that was the best scene in the entire film. And I love how this automobile guy. I like, you know, like I love, I just love that the moment the son goes, he owes, he goes, what did you say?

And in that moment, he's like, you don't know. You have no idea. Go ahead. Tell your father. Yeah, yeah. Please tell your father. Go to him. And he was like, it was so done well.

And I'd love that, like, you know, John Wick just shows up. And he's like, where's my car? Where is it? Was it here? Who's the people? And he's like, yeah. It was here. I didn't touch it.

This is a huge information. I told him to get out of my garage. I love, I love that coat. I love the fear that, that, that one. name John Wick and it makes me kind of go you know what I have a son I'm going to name him his first name's going to be John his second name is going to be Wick and his last name's going to be whatever I'm going to do I'm going to take that wick you know like do it do it with me he's going to be the most badass kid on the playground I mean I you're already telling stories about how you got

into fights we're defending people that kid that kid's got big shoes to fill and he's going to fill him no it's funny because I'm um I'm very sweet but growing up I did get into a lot of fights. I won a lot of fights. I did not. I lost very few. Nice. And it's interesting because the one that I did lose, I ended up winning in the end.

And my grandfather has eight black belts in martial arts. Oh, okay. And so, like, I was, he taught my sisters and I to fight. Okay, gotcha. But he was also military and, like, taught us to fight. To fight. To the point where I know how to fight to take somebody down, but then I also join an all-boys wrestling team.

Nice. One championships in state seven years in a row. Hell yeah. Only girl on the team. At a girl. So my grandfather always told us, Kristen, if somebody hits you, first hit, you walk away. Second hit, you stand your ground. Third hit is self-defense.

And he told me, and he always told us this because he said, you can really do damage to somebody and you can kill them. And he's like, so if somebody hits you because of how trained you are. The first hit, you walk away. Violence is not it. You let it be. So I always lived by that code. Gotcha.

So I would let somebody take the first hit. I never threw the first hit. Ever. And so I got that one hit. The second hit, and I'd walk away. Or I would like kind of look. If they hit me again, I'm like, all right. All right.

It's over. And I would be like, it's over for y'all. I remember one time, I was so, I was like, please, one more. I remember, hit me again. Come on. I remember staying my side. My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, I remember holding my grounds and I go, that's two. One more.

It's free game. Let's go. One more. Hit me one more time. Please. At that point, I'm like, nope, nope, I'm not going to be. You know what I like, retract my statement. Oh, I had a, I had a name.

I had a name walking away. In, um, middle school and high school, uh, people were definitely did respect me. Okay. Um, and it's interesting because I wasn't a bully. It was like I was always defending the underdog Or I was defending my sister Or like, you know, with me I was like I don't really care Like it's fine

Like I'm pretty level-headed And my temper's pretty controlled However, the moment I got crossed I was like, all right, let's go It's fight time And so a lot of people were terrified of me And they're like, oh don't, don't mess with Kristen Oh, she throws down

She's the sweetest, most kindest person You'll ever meet but she's a protector She throws down Yeah, everybody in the school knew She is a protector If you're doing If you're doing something to somebody Do not do it around her

Because she will throw down She will protect them If you are in the wrong Like she will fall on Now if it's like your own thing Like for most of them like Hands off Do your thing

I'm not a part of this But the moment I see somebody Attacking somebody Who can't defend themselves Or just to be cruel Like say a puppy John Wick Yeah you decide man

I am like Mrs. John Wick right here. Mrs. John Wick. Anyways, back to the film. Fun facts, you guys. Fun facts. Krista Zos Pino throws down. She throws down, ladies and gentlemen. You heard it here first.

Sweetest human being, they will tell you this. Everyone in my school, anybody who grew up with me, you know, if you were watching this, you know, throw some facts. They will tell you. She is the sweetest, most kindest person you will ever meet. Amazing. But she throws down. And if she, if you're on her bad side, watch out. And I'm like, but I'm also like that, that person that you would never think.

Right. I mean, it's always, it's always the ones you least expect. Yeah. That's usually how it goes. I'm just like, I'm like, yeah, I did it. And I'm like, and the moment I go, I, and the thing is, I don't do this. I go. Ah, it's the smile.

Really? It's the, all right, cool. We're doing this smile. Because it's almost like my psycho, my inner psycho comes out. And I'm like, all right, you want to play. Play, like, let's go to the playground. Let's go. Meet you in the yard, five minutes.

My older sister, she's just like, the moment I'd go, she'd be like, I'm done, I'm out, cool, bye. She would be like, my sisters, they're all like, ooh, the crazy's coming out, walk away. Yikes, just leave her alone, leave her alone. I'm like, yikes, yikes. Yeah, anyways, anything else we want to add? I mean, back to the film, this is amazing. I enjoyed it. Fun.
