Hey My Mom's Basement listeners, you can find our episodes on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube, and Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Hello and welcome back to My Mom's Basement presented by Barstool Sports and 3Chi. It is Robbie Fox back again to recap Moon Knight with Clem. This is Moon Knight Episode 4 and business has picked up with this show. Quoting the legendary JR, and I think it's worthy of that because this episode ends with a complete mindfuck. Bob, we're in a bad, weird place that luckily we've been in before. We were basically in this place for most of WandaVision looking back,

which is when we started ramping up all these recaps. So it feels good to have my brain cramp up a little bit, especially at the end there. So it was weird. I feel like the first half of the episode felt very like it was like a template. Basic. It was like your mummy movie,

archeology, Indiana Jones, whatever you want to call it movie. And then the end was like, you said, mind. Fuck. That was not, that was not rehearsed, people.

The people on YouTube just saw the double-blurred exposure by one of those. That came organically because of Mark Spector, Stephen Grant, White Rooms, whatever the fuck you're going to tell me. Which, again, shout out Jose Young for at least telling us shit's going to get weird. Because when I saw that, I go, oh, that's right. Jose did warn us about that. And Jose, did you see him get on his thread the other day i saw his thread he's threading i know yeah jose young's is threaded on our asses it is like shit's crazy this is why shit is crazy so we're gonna get him on by the way he's had a crazy travel schedule but i hit him up last week

and i was like you let us know when you're caught up on moon night and we'll have him on for a recap episode but he's totally in for that he's in for a thor preview episode so for the the jose young's heads out there i don't know if that's like the the name for his fans he will be back he will be back very soon so don't worry about that yeah like i was even gonna say like do we have jose i think we almost need we have to, like, feel a little bit out for ourselves. We can't just have him hold our hand and bring it. What's the point of watching the show, right? It's like when you're learning to ride a bike. He's like, our parents, like, have to get us started.

And then we just got to start pedaling. You know, we got to see if we could do it. It's a leap of faith with this show. And like you said, the beginning of this episode, it felt like Indiana Jones, Mummy. Sort of like those kind of movies to me. And then the second half was just crazy. And it was maybe not the second half, maybe just the ending. But we'll kind of go through it.

It's another one of these where it's like going through it beat for beat would take a while. So I did put bullet points in kind of a shorter way. And we could talk about the episode in a more general way, the series in a more general way. And before we go on, I got to remind everybody that this podcast is presented by 3Chi, the industry leader in Delta 8 THC products. And now they've even got Delta 9 products.

so let's get back into that one more time the promo code is stool five to take five percent off your order at 3g.com it starts with steven in the body with leila going off of last week when he helped khan shu change the sky and all of that she wakes him up she uses some fireworks against some guys she also uses flares a lot in this episode and flares now I just see flares and I think of Batman it's like such a every single time I was like oh shit remember the Batman that was fucking sick on HBO Max now I watched it already I'm excited to I'm going to columbus for a wedding this weekend and some friends were like you want to come over and watch the batman

with us i was like fuck yeah that sounds like a great plan uh leila and steven also start getting romantic in this episode which is interesting because it's like is leila cheating on mark with steven that's what i how do we think of this philosophically, Clem? I wanted to bring that up to you. So how do we feel about that? Are you cheating on your husband if you're cheating with the same body but a different part of his personality or mental state? I don't think so.

I don't know. I don't think you're cheating. It's like you're not physically cheating, but you're mentally cheating. I don't think you're cheating. I think it's like you're not physically cheating, but you're mentally cheating. I don't know. I feel like it's like a half a strike. Can you have a half a strike in baseball? I don't know. It's like being partially pregnant.

Schrodinger's like strike. Yeah, you can't be partially pregnant, right? So that doesn't make sense either. It was in Loki. We were like, if Loki and girl Loki fuck, is he fucking himself? Is it masturbation? Is it sex?

Is it incest? Marvel is here just breaking our brains every single series. I don't know what to think. So what are we going to say? Are we going to say she gets, I mean, it was, granted it was just a kiss for now. I think it's like she just gets a pass. This is such a crazy scenario that, hell, you know, it's like, just gets a pass this is such a crazy scenario that hell you know it's

like hey you get two boyfriends yeah and hey i think like not to get x-rated on the podcast here get weird with it but i imagine steven is a much different lover than mark oh i bet he is no the oh should go to mark i think steven stinks stinks at sex Steven is no better than a 4 out of 10 at sex Oh, no Steven slander in this episode This was a great episode for my guy, Steven I wrote down the first note that I wrote down For this episode, Clem Was that Steven walks by camels

And he says, oh, hello Mark definitely doesn't look at the camels And say hello like that Agreed, he has his fucking accent Bob, if your first note was Steven is a great lovemaker. I know. Listen, Steven is definitely a gentle lovemaker. I'm not going to say he's not.

Yeah. But Mark takes care of it. Like I said it last week, Steven buys the Call Her Daddy merch, not really knowing the whole story behind it. Mark knows Alex Cooper on a personal basis. So I'm just going gonna leave it at that i wrote down one of the funniest things i thought and i don't even think it was intentionally funny from from layla was you smell like him maybe it was intentionally funny but that was just like it's such a funny

thing to say to someone that has a split personality like oh my god you smell just like your other personality i like i like that. Yep. And like you said, in the beginning, a lot of Mummy Indiana Jones, there was two beats that I don't know if other people got the same feeling I did. The Jeep coming down the hill, I was like, I got kind of Jurassic Park vibes because it had the lights on top. And then she took the flare out. And I'm like, are we recreating the T-Rex scene? What the hell is going on right now and then the stuff in the back of the uh the back of the jeep when she throws the

flares into the thing in the fireworks i got uh the who is it oh shoot i'm gonna kill myself for not remembering this in back to the future hugo at doc brown again oh it's it's like the uh is it the it's a different it's a country right yeah it's like the, is it the, it's a different, it's a country, right? Yeah, yeah. It's like a Middle Eastern country. Syrians or something like that. Like attacking, wasn't it like kind of political at the time? Yeah.

Like it was someone that the United States. The Libyans. I don't know how they found me, Marty. It's the Libyans. So yeah, I guess the Libyans were like a scary country back then, Libya. But speaking of scary, tough look for our girl leila leila we learned during this episode can hold her own tip of the cap when your signature weapon is a flare yeah that's pretty fucking that's that's a tough pill to swallow right there she's yeah i've been playing

so much lego star wars that it just reminds me of like you know when you you have to play as a shitty character for a level and you're like oh shit i don't have a lightsaber now i just have a rant and there's also a uh i noticed yesterday there's like a i don't know if it's a cheat code it's like something that you could buy and activate for the game that turns all lightsabers into baguettes i thought that was funny like they don't mess you know yep and they They appreciate the finer things in life Like turning lightsabers into baguettes I appreciate that By the way, the baguette from Panera An all-time side

The baguette I didn't Alright, listen, Moon Knight diehards here We're gonna go off track a little You know how we do it here We're fucking Stephen Grant and now we're turning into like Mark Spector or whatever The baguette.

There's, like, three things that can kill a diet. As a man that has, you know, started diets, they die. I can tell you. Number one is fast food restaurants. They always unleash, like, the really fun promotions. Like, that first week of February, that last week of January, that's when, like, the McFlurry is back with, you know, Rolos orolos or the McDonald's Monopoly. I feel like it was always coming back right when I was like, all right, I think I'm in a good place. I have a good thing, a good strategy.

Two is the holidays. No matter what, every other month, it's just a sugar holiday. It's Easter. It's Christmas. It's Halloween. It's like every two months, it's like, well, I have a thousand pieces of candy in the house, especially with kids. You're completely. And then number three is the baguette where you're like, all right, I'm being good.

I'm getting a salad. I'm going to treat myself, you know, like grilled chicken's fine. We'll get some corn in there. A little, just a little bit of ranch for daddy. Daddy needs a little ranch, a little bit of flavor. And they're like, do you want the baguette? And you're like, I should say no. I'll just get the bag.

I'll have like a bite of it. Just, you know, get something in me. And then you, you end up housing the baguette? And you're like, I should say no. I'll just get the baguette. I'll have like a bite of it just to get something in me. And then you end up housing the baguette in the salad you just don't give a fuck about. So goddamn the baguette. I love the baguette so much. I throw in an extra baguette, dip it in the soup. Oh, my God. It's absolutely delicious. By the way, speaking of food, speaking of trying to get on diets and whatnot, we got a sponsor this week, where you can put in your own meal plan your own diet plan and they can help you out with

And then you could skip weeks when you need to, change a delivery date, update your preferences all in the HelloFresh app. I actually saw in my building a HelloFresh box outside as I was coming in last night.

And I brought it in for the people. I don't know who it is in my building, but it was outside. And I felt a little bit of pride. I was like, I hope they used our promo code. You know, it's like the great word of HelloFresh is spreading. I choose to believe that that's a basement boy who ordered that. Or a basement girl or a basement couple, even better. And they're making themselves some nice, delicious meals.

They're saving some money. They're getting a little thinner they're eating well they're not eating the baguettes at the panera which is delicious but it's dangerous so you go to your hello fresh and like i said and like they have the stuff where it's like hey i'm looking at calorie count you have that option hey i don't care i'm just gonna feed my family that's when i went last time so it's like go with everyone all the look at this they have uh customize your favorite dishes with their new HelloFresh custom offerings by swapping out one protein or one side for another.

myself as like a pizza delivery guy like toby mcguire on spider-man 2 yeah if you see that they actually put out like a doctor strange commercial that's very stylized in the sam raimi style where it's like kind of like a drone camera going through with the doctor strange cape and it goes through a joe's pizza delivery truck like from spider-man 2 which i was like oh shit be cool if they reference something like that in the movie because it's the raimi verse you know go to town with those easter eggs do like get crazy with it like not over the top get the emo dance or something like that you know i'm asking for that very kindly but other than that load them onto me nothing but easter eggs baby

another random marvel thing i saw this week that i thought was worth mentioning we did a little thor teaser trailer breakdown which you could watch on YouTube if you are on YouTube now. YouTube exclusive. That's right. And we talked about our thoughts on that. I read that Thor Love and Thunder is actually the first Marvel movie to use the volume, which was like created for the Mandalorian. That's the LED screen that goes all the way around. And they could kind of edit it as they're filming with the Unreal Engine and stuff like that.

And I thought that was pretty cool. Like our boys, Favreau and Filoni, not that they were the ones that came up with the volume, obviously, but they were the ones that took the chance on using it for that show for the first time. And just Lucasfilm and ILM, yet again, innovating. Innovating, changing the goddamn game once again.

Pretty damn cool. And I actually, shout out, I met a guy in chicago last night um after the dozen show and he said he works for marvel in the finance department but i said hey does faggy have that whiteboard and he said how did you know so i'm just gonna say sources confirm sources source confirms that single that's pretty cool you met someone that works for marvel yeah he's like i work for works for Marvel. Yeah, he's like, I work for Marvel. I was like, oh, that's awesome, man. He's like, I just work for Finest. I'm like, that's still awesome, though. That's still cool, yeah.

Absolutely, I agree. You're nerdier, you make a lot of money, that's fucking great. We're not going to meet Kevin Feige by meeting some producer. I mean, maybe Waldron, maybe Waldron one day. Maybe Waldron, if you're listening, please. But if not, the finance department

just gets me in the back door. I just need to get a picture of that goddamn whiteboard because this show has a lot of shit going on. The whiteboard will answer it in a tidy fashion. But by the end of it, I was like afraid of the color white with all the white walls. And I was like, oh, my God, no, don't give me a whiteboard at this point. They confront creatures in this episode that are pretty fucking creepy. Like, I mean, kind of like mummy style creepy where it's dark. this point they confront creatures in this episode that are pretty fucking creepy like i mean kind of like mummy style creepy where it's dark it's kind of hard to see and it's like

once you see them you're like all right yeah that's a fake little cgi practical effect mixture creature and steven squishes it i think my favorite my favorite line of the episode is when he throws the bookshelf over and he's like i squished it i squished it that was a good line made me laugh that's something i would say like you know i'm expecting steven to say something i was like no i squished it and they find out they find out that in their search for ahmet's final resting place the final location of ahmet's tomb it's actually also alexander the great's lost tomb like this is one in the same. And in a gross moment,

Steven has to pull the wrapping, the mummified wrapping off of this sarcophagus, like the face. And you hear the dust coming off of it and you hear the crackles and everything. And he realizes since this was the voice of Amit, he was going to have to reach into the fucking throat to pull out the little figurine that he needs.

And that really shockingly disgusted me, Clem. So this fucked up my brain. Well, it seemed, for a few reasons, right? Seeing it all done was just gross. Just imagine going down a mummy's throat. The whole Alexander the Great, it's like, oh, we're going to like real life into, you know, mixing real life. Indiana Jones-esque, actually. Yeah, exactly.

And then, like I had said last episode, the Kanye line for Monster, put the pussy in a sarcophagus. Now she's claiming that I bruised her esophagus. And he goes down, Alexander the Great's goddamn esophagus. He bruises Alexander the Great's esophagus, yeah. So we are just like, i'm in like my mind now i'm starting to like not know what's a dream what's real is this podcast even a thing or is it all in my brain i'm starting to get fucking creeped out can a listener tweet us like almost like an inspirational quote card with steven grant or uh or mark specter on it that just has that kanye line

but at least credit it to him, you know? Or that should have been like one of the Moon Knight fake word bubbles where he's just doing the Kanye line. Yeah, yeah, yeah. By the way, little slight left turn. The Kanye, I watched part one of the Kanye genius Netflix doc. Loved it. I haven't watched two or three i just watched the first one

i followed kanye since the minute i had heard of him um like right around blueprint and then i i got his college drop on the day it came out because i was a big fan wow i never saw this young kanye they they meet him in 98 that's way before when i was born i mean that's when bob fox was goddamn born that's how long crazy and he is this scrawny little dude he's kind of like a little bit of a pretty boy but not crazy over the top and he's not obviously he always says like he's a little bit of arrogance but not nearly as much as i thought but he kind of like carries himself like that so i fucking loved it if you liked at one point of your life liked conge west because i don't know if anyone could

like him in 2022 yeah yeah it's a must watch series and especially I gotta check that out I let it slip through the cracks to be honest the only reason I watch is because I downloaded the uh Showtime Lakers show and for some reason the fourth episode didn't like download all the way so I downloaded the Kanye I was like shit I'm on the plane I'm like do I just skip the episode no I'm just gonna watch Kanye so if they keep bringing up esophaguses And scorophaguses They should use that song in the show Oh my god, how much would you go crazy If that kicks in in an episode

It kind of fits too, right? They use Day and Night by Kid Cudi and shit We have Monsters too, by the way Those Monsters, I did not like that I did not like those Monsters We had a jump scare going on It gave me a little It's a very dark episode on um i it gave me a very dark episode the first half of the episode is very dark by the way i was watching it and had to close the blinds

because like i had a little glare and just couldn't see shit it was like game of thrones all over again oh and this oh my god what are the odds that you say game of thrones i was about to say those monsters reminded me of the grayscale monsters in game of thrones yeah they can't touch you man i'm starting not to know what's real what's fake anymore i turned into mark specter right i i flew this morning what you're gonna say i already downloaded that data because it's all a simulation yeah i i flew like i have post-flight brain right now and nothing feels you did fly back today credit to you for uh hopping in the basement late tonight. Got to do it.

We've had everyone saying, I don't know what the hell is going on in Moon Knight. So a lot of stuff going on. Oh, and everyone check out The Dozen, by the way. I don't know when you'll be listening to this, but the semifinals and finals are going up this week. So, you know, if you're listening to this by the end of this week, they'll probably be up. Well, you say this week because they were supposed to go out tonight uh as in wednesday night when we tape this and now it's been moved to tomorrow at 11 but by the time it might be like saturday at this point the way jeff i can see jeff's no fear in his eyes jeff if you're listening shout out to you because i know

jeff's freaking the fuck out he's losing mind. He's definitely got a little better. I can tell like his tweets. He was like, all right, guys, it's fucked. I'm sorry. But great time shot. I didn't even realize that to be honest. Yeah. Yeah.

He tweeted it out. This is what's going to happen. If this thing doesn't go out, Jeff's going to start fucking mummifying people by cutting them up. That thing where they had all the blood and the bones, the meaty bits. And I was like, oh, meaty bits and i was like oh meaty bits was such a gross way of putting it you picture like steak tips or something that should be uh new lowering the bar where vibs just brings meaty bits and people have to eat meaty bits you don't

even know what the hell it is it just oh it just freaked me the fuck out but i will say really gross yeah all right like your guy steven he held his own in a very tough scene this entire like pyramid thing this is not this is a mark mark didn't believe in him yeah mark didn't believe in him give me the body they had a great back and forth this episode when mark punched him in the face for kissing his wife that's funny yeah i mean obviously we find out who like do you think we'll actually like see layla's dad at some point like a flashback or something like that do you think that's gonna come by the end of the series or the season I should say maybe I could see that being like a cool cold open to an episode like almost yeah what happened

that night or something even the mercenary night they did reference that whole thing you know obviously at the end skipping forward a bit Arthur Harrow once again tries to convince Layla that Mark had to do with Layla's father's death and that they just went crazy. The mercenaries, they killed him. And he says it was his partner who Jose told us in that episode is this guy Bushman, who's actually like Moon Knight's main villain. He was like, I don't think you could do Moon Knight without doing Bushman, basically. He kind of goes hand in hand with him. It seems like if they're doing that,'re probably setting him setting him up for a

second season or something like that like bushman the villain but that episode with jose like you mentioned earlier it's aging like a fine wine like go back at this point even and listen to that and like he talks about the i think it's jeff lemire uh wrote this comic book run in like 2016 of moon night where it takes place in the mental asylum and whatnot and i i think we're headed towards that direction especially at the end of this one and every i think every time i've blogged moon night i'm like and if you haven't watched the jose video yet please go back and do so and i'm not doing it to like gain the numbers or anything like that i'm doing it truly helps your understanding of the show and like after seeing the thor the little bit of thor teaser i'm'm like, yep, we're going to definitely need Jose for that.

That's a great call for you. But yeah, it's a lot to take in, to say the least. Yeah. So he is confronted by Arthur Harrow once he gets the thing from the bruised sarcophagus and convinces Layla of this. She confronts Steven. It's like, I got to talk to Mark. It gets real serious. She gets to talk to Mark at the end.

And then Harrow shoots Mark, Steven, Jake, whoever you want to call him, Oscar Isaac. And he wakes up in the white padded walls of the mental asylum. And he's like, what the fuck is happening? He's in a wheelchair. They're like, oh, we sedated you. Like, chill out. Tries to get out of the wheelchair when he sees himself in a reflection and he's tied to

it kind of like he was tied to the bed so it's like oh shit what's going on here we see his boss we see all characters from the show that we've seen also as inmates in the mental asylum and he goes in for a meeting with ethan hawke i don't want to call him arthur harrow just ethan hawke yeah he's ethan hawke he's got a mustache he's got kind of like more regular hair and it seems as if he's like the therapist in this world and he's like am i talking to mark right now like i i you know i don't want to talk to steven he's like you know about steven and he's so confused oscar isaac actually gives a great performance of just being completely befuddled by the whole thing yeah and they they bring him out into the the front it also the way it goes over i forgot to mention is like

in the form of an adventure television show almost seemed like a like land of the lost or something it was super cheesy yeah it was and like the aspect ratio changed you could tell it was like an old tv show that they were going for and the adventure's name was steven grant in that which is like oh shit is that where he got that and he has a fucking moon knight action figure but it's like you know it's not like exactly moon knight but it looks a lot like him which as soon as i saw that too i was like fucking collectors are gonna want that like me they're gonna be like can i have the mental asylum version that steven had yeah but crazy trippy ending to the episode really really well done and like definitely one of those turns that you're gonna remember about moon night one like one of the moments that i think after the

show is all said and done we'll remember that as an episode ending also impressive that they did the first episode without conchu and kept it very interesting yeah oh that's i didn't even think they didn't even have conchu and it kept my attention the entire time and you know die hard conchu guy yeah the i loved how cheesy the vhs was like it looks so lame i'm gonna maybe like want to watch that show. I like those cheesy old vibes. I used to watch the Land of the Lost stuff before school, and it used to just give me a warm feeling of like, yeah, you know nothing wrong is going to go. Nothing bad is going to happen in these shows.

I loved Land of the Lost growing up, and as I think about it, it might have been a completely different Land of the Lost. I don't know if it was one of the 90s you watch, or if there was a new, I think there might have been a newer one. They made a movie that was, I think it was like Will ferrell or something maybe i used to watch the old old one because that my mom used to watch that growing up so she was kind of like this is what i used

to watch when i was little and she showed me like the old one and i loved that land of the lost had fire fucking song too i didn't think we were talking land of the lost man am i i'm gonna go down where that was the land of the lost aliens do you remember the the name of them they had like a funny name no did they have a funny name yeah land of the lost so there's a 1970s slie stacks yeah so i i watched the remake series of 91 so you end up watching the og version as it's all said and done you know like this is bob fox i'm this is the guy who watched like this fucking 70s batman show like yeah exactly let's not skip a decade well that's when they made the movie yeah but 91 is was definitely one i watched here and what was the name of the aliens sleaze stacks and they're

great it's actually a great alien design like When you look that up it's the big black Eyes that you would see on What they call a grey alien But they're green guys They got scales Shout out Land of the Lost Probably some old basement guys and girls Out there that enjoy that

Also this is going off Moon Knight For just a second again You mentioned the winning time show The, the Lakers show on HBO Max. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Winning Time. Question on behalf of nerds in the basement that don't really know much about the Lakers of that era. Is that a good show for like non, I don't want to say non-sports fans, but people just not in the know about that? I think so.

I loved it. And granted, I am a sports fan. But just like it's Hollywood and it's Adam McKay does it. And granted, I am a sports fan. But just like it's Hollywood. And it's Adam McKay does it. So if you like Adam McKay stuff, you like John C. Reilly. And it's just like a fun. It's a fun show. It's just a fun ass show.

And you're, you know, it's like Hollywood is a character in the movie. And I've only watched three episodes. And there's some crazy shit that I don't even know happened. So if you are a sports fan and you're like, I don't really care about the Showtime Lakers, trust me, crazy shit, Magic Johnson, becoming Magic Johnson, living the LA life. Dr. Bust, Jerry Bust, who's Genie, who's the current owner, her dad who turned the Lakers into what they were. He was like, you know, spoiler, episode one, like I think the first scene,

he's in the Playboy Mansion. So it's like Hollywood is a fucking character in the show. And it is crazy, man. It's Hollywood in the 70s. I've heard very good things. And I've been like, I wonder if I would like that, even though I don't know shit about it. So that's my answer.

Yeah. A hundred percent. Yes, Bob. You download that for the flight to Columbus. You watch an episode or two on the plane. You have to kind of, there's a little bit of nudity. So you have to kind of like pull it close to you, the iPad, when you don't know anyone else

seeing. Nice. This is a, this got to do a sexual episode right here. Discussing how much good of a lover. And listen, I take back some of what I said. Stephen Grant, he's a lover, where I think Mark is more of a fucker, but I just don't think he's

good at sex. So I do apologize. He doesn't seem like someone that's good at sex. He could learn. He seems like he's willing to learn. Get roman.com slash dog walk. Free ad right there for the boys. He's going to need that. I feel like Steven would need that.

I don't think Mark would even live with the same body. I'm going to ask this question because it's based on the cheesy VHS movie, which was called like it wasn't tomb raider it was something like that though right yeah i have it like pulled up in the where is this i forget what it was but it was like it was it was a very funny vhs cover as well so i'm gonna ask this question and i i i promise i'm not going um this isn't a shame thing and i think the answer is yes but if it's not it's gonna hurt me okay robbie fox yeah have you ever used a vhs or a vcr oh yeah yeah okay thank you when i was growing up so much yeah i just hope

like you know by the time you were able to like get everything going, it was just straight DVDs. And if I was, if I'm here doing a podcast with someone who's like, I've never touched a VCR in my life, it would make me feel a thousand times better. No, I've actually told a story. Mama Fox, the best, the saint that this podcast is named after, used to download, used to tape batman episodes from when i like fell asleep and then she would like label the vhs we should go to shop right by the blank vhs's she would label them all by villain so like i would be able to go into the closet where she put all of them and i'd be like mr freeze the riddler egghead fucking king tut yeah all of them what a goddamn mom and that kind of ties it back to moon Knight. There was a villain called King Tut in the 1966 show,

invented for just the show. And he's this fat guy. I think he was like a historian. And I think he found out that Batman was Bruce Wayne, or Bruce Wayne was Batman. And then he got a concussion and forgot. Concussion. That was like the early version of Will Smith, tell the truth.

It's like this guy was so fucked up he forgot who batman was can i hear like a like mama fox telling you that she you know she recorded you know a couple episodes with mr freeze and and king tut and all that yeah uh rob there was a bunch of episodes on last night rob and i who i mean the joker the riddler the pang i know all these people but king egg egghead who's egghead with the shop right and i guess what i mean just an absolute peach of a woman we've talked about her on the pod large i think is in love with her on the radio mrs fox is just the absolute best i mean the name mrs fox what a goddamn she just moved by the way shout out mama fox her her dream her whole life is she's been like, I would love a beach house.

And she just moved to the Jersey Shore. Good work. I mean, if anyone deserves it. Dreams realized, yeah. Anything is possible, in the words of Kevin Garnett. But, I mean, you kind of touched on it, though. That room, as soon as I saw that white room, like, this is going to fuck me up. And, again, the Jose.

Like, is the show even real yeah do we know if the show is real i think it is and i think in the comic that jose told us about he was like eventually he like makes a moon knight suit out of like sheets and like jumps out and realizes he has to like live the world but then he said like the city turns into ancient egypt and he sees sand all over the city i hope they get into that stuff. Me too. Yup. And, and again,

Jose warned of all this shit and it gets even crazier. And listen, the bingo was going on, which I'm like, that probably means something. Yeah. The gold. I was trying to listen to like the,

the numbers. I was like, is that like 73? Is that like seven or third issue of something was the first appearance of by the way, it was, it was tomb buster. That was the name of the VHS. Nice.uster yeah i saw the goldfish the cupcakes which obviously

you know the first episode we had the chase scene the guards like you said the guards were people that we've seen before blah blah all that stuff i was fine i was like all right it's a lot to take in my guy jose prepare me and then we met a talking hippo and that's what i what the fuck was the hippo what was that people are talking about i think it is a character from the comics it's another god it's an egyptian goddess ta tauret tairet or something like that and she is the goddess of childbirth and fertility what does that mean because someone tweeted us clem a while ago i forget who it was i wish i could credit them but they said in the comics there's a storyline where jake lockley this menace gets one of mark's ex-girlfriends pregnant and he's got no idea because jake did it

got us a fertility what the fuck's going on here also he sees another tomb you know he lets himself out of a tomb at the end like mark lets steven out of a tomb and they hug each other they're like oh my god we're here and then they walk past another tomb jake had to be in there they don't let him out which is interesting that they weren't even curious about that but yeah seeing how they like embrace each other was cool too considering they've been like rivals the entire time on the show so again the basement boys can come together our boys are Together we're together we're one on this show I like how we're it's all coming together

Right now except for the fucking hippo girl This double god thing is it seems a little much And that was actually another thing is Consue in the beginning it's placed And you kind of see him with all the other gods who have been kind of Trapped in statue form So I feel like that's going to come around And we talked about this on the youtube

Exclusive that you must go back and watch. If you haven't watched it, if you're a podcast listener, we're in God land right now in Marvel. There's a lot of things, you know, there's space Marvel,

there's earth Marvel. There's all these different things. We have magic Marvel, which is going to be a big part of with Wanda and Dr. Strange. God. Marvel is something my brain isn't really ready for. However,

I do like when we, again, with Alexander, the great we're touching on, or any kind of stuff that, you know, Zeus and Thor, any of these gods that do exist,

like in the real world, in terms of at least being written about. I love that shit. I don't know about you. Do you, if you go to a movie and it's based on true events, like what was the name of that movie? The world war twoi movie um about

the boats that they took them back and forth dunkirk dunkirk yes yeah did you see dunkirk oh yeah did you go home immediately and read all about it on wikipedia i i do that after every real i love looking up like what was real and what did they make up for the movie i love that i love that shit too uh churchill same thing i want to see church on the movie theater went home right like did a whole deep dive on him i love that kind of shit so i could see me doing a lot of i might go on an alexander the great hunt after i'm done with my land of the lost rewatch so i just wanted to see if i was the only one and i also got to shout myself out because thanks to everyone there was a bunch of people who hit me up with different things about the yelling uncontrollably it was a little feral skit there was a bunch of people who hit me up with different things about the yelling uncontrollably. It was a little feral skit.

There was a bunch of different things, but it was Austin powers. He's like, when he gets unfrozen, he can't control that. And I couldn't believe I actually got that reference, right. I couldn't get it all the way for the episode,

but it turns out I'm not a complete moron, just like 90% moron. So I did get that. So again, nothing seems real. Robbie's fucking finishing my thoughts before I can even get them out. Oh, and by the way, Abdullah El-Falouli. Did not see that name coming for Layla's dad.

Layla and Abdullah El-Falouli. Yeah. Not Indiana Jones. Yeah, not Indiana Jones. Well, certainly not Indiana Jones. I have a surprise for you. You might see me. I, not Indiana Jones. Well, certainly not Indiana Jones. I have a surprise for you. You might see me. I was just looking down.

I was pulling up an anonymous source that we have, a listener of the podcast, wanted to stay anonymous, actually rode the New Guardians of the Galaxy ride. Got a preview of it. And I said, hey, can you let us know what it was like? And I do have a very interesting message from this anonymous source about what it was like and i do have a very interesting message from this anonymous source about what it was like he said or she said or they said the ride is awesome didn't get to go through the actual line because they're still constructing the actual line but there's going to be put in a rocket raccoon and groot animatronic that they're still building and the ride isn't a part of like main MCU canon so it's not like going forward with what their the storyline is right at this moment so they said it's adult Groot in the ride and normal Gamora not the one that's in Endgame not like the reincarnated gamora that doesn't remember the rest of the gang and the story of the

ride is that you're at a zandarian outpost on earth and a celestial has stolen a power generator and you have to steal it back the song that plays this is a pretty big scoop i think is disco inferno by the tramps and it fits the ride perfectly the ride starts with a backwards launch too which was very sick and they said i don't think you're supposed to say this so obviously don't mention my name i said i won't mention your name and they said the physical car you sit in rotates and spins and it's like makes the whole thing dark with great effects um another thing that they noted is that originally they were going to have a giant celestial animatronic inside the ride that like goes to swipe at you as you go past but they're not doing that anymore apparently that was like too much they were like we can't

build a fucking celestial i was wondering if they were like eternals didn't have like a good enough raw tomatoes rating so we're not gonna beg her back but they're probably like wait they saw eternals they were like wait that's how big they're supposed to be? No, we can't put one of those in Disney. I'm mad, man. Disney's like, I can give you magic. What do they call the Imagineers? I can give you guys magic, but I can't make a fucking celestial in a ride. Sounds cool.

The thought of like a celestial swiping at you as you go past. Reminds me of there was a Jurassic Park. I don't know if it's still there. When I went, I was like four years old to Universal. There's a jurassic park log flume i think that's what they call it log flume yeah and uh when you got to the top it was like a t-rex went to bite you just as you go over and i thought that was the coolest thing when i was little i love log flumes it's like yeah those are fun i'm gonna get like wet but you put on the poncho Or whatever yeah Yeah exactly you might get wet

If you go on like a 50 degree day you're gonna like ruin your day But other than that I love it For some reason I like don't get scared of Log flumes as much as you get scared of other rides It might have the same exact tip cause it's like being in water It kinda just throws everything off I'm not a loop to loop guy Yeah I don't like roller coasters

But I do like water slides and the log flume Is sorta like the hybrid I I don't like roller coasters, but I do like water slides, and the log flume is sort of like the hybrid. I can fuck with some roller coasters, but no loops. And the worst is holding my wife's purse as she goes on the ride, and then I see like eight-year-olds go on the ride. Now that I have like a daughter who's seven, and if she goes on the ride, it's like I either have to like face my fears or basically just like leave my family because there's just no way. Here's a weird one. How do you feel about ferris wheels i like i'm fine with ferris wheels but some people are like terrified of them because what if you get stuck at the top ferris wheel the ferris wheel is the most like low-key scary safe ride ever because when you're up there because you're like oh it's

just a ferris wheel sure honey cool and it's blowing if you go on like a windy windy day, you're just like, and it's not even that fun of a ride. I'm like, what the fuck am I doing up here? And it's, I think Ferris wheels are overrated. They're cool looking, but they are just not worth the headaches. I don't like Ferris wheels. It depends on where you are. I think if you're going on a Ferris wheel, it has to be in a nice place with a nice view. Nice view. on a ferris wheel it has to be in a nice place with a nice view nice view like the the i went

on one ferris wheel probably in the last 10 years and it was on the santa monica pier and it was like you got to look overlook the water cool picture spot or whatever that was like kind of my exception i was like yeah yeah i'll do a ferris wheel in santa monica pier if it's like the new jersey state fair in the meadowlands parking lot, I'm not doing that Ferris wheel. And you know what? I feel like this is the case with all Ferris wheels. There's always a chance of it. I feel like hand jobs are a big thing.

It's like a Ferris wheel thing. And in the Jersey, like in the Meadowlands parking lot, you look twice before you sit down. Hit a black light on one of those things, and it's just covered in cum. Definitely. Jackson Pollock painting, as our voice star Lord said. So i can't believe this is why you listen to the basement not just for the recaps or the banter about you know shows from the 60s but fucking you're gonna get exclusive on disney rides and i mean i didn't know we were gonna ever get so that's awesome i know i thought that was

like an actually uh a cool exclusive i wish we had like if we were like a full-fledged video show with a big budget we would have done it like the fbi where they're like blacked out and they have a voice like this yes the guardians of the galaxy ride was very cool i had fun by the way disco inferno i'm happy like the music is very important disco inferno is also my favorite like jokey gimmicky wrestler of the of the late 90s of the 90s on wcw yeah i loved disco and there like there's a few of us and we are diehards we love the fuck out of i forgot what was the other guy's name alex something and he did the kind of the dance like this he always wore a

leather jacket oh yeah disco inferno was kind of his fuck what was his name disco inferno kind of had like a nice like he had like a brief, I think he was on like the Wolfpack for a minute. It was Alex Wright. Alex Wright, German. Dancing Fools, yeah. That was their tag team name, the Dancing Fools. Like that was one of my, I just like, that's just silly wrestling.

You know what's so funny looking back to Disco Inferno, six foot combined weight of the two of them was 452. he always sort of looked like a smaller guy just that era of wrestlers they were always fucking huge like x-pac another guy who yep it was always viewed as a smaller guy I think he's like six foot six one two forty yeah Disco Inferno did not look six one or two forty forty he used to get the chant disco sucks and I don't know I just absolutely loved it is there

still joke wrestling jokey wrestling oh yeah today okay i like comedy wrestling a lot there's i think there's a place for a comedy match on every wrestling card like i like my wrestling cards to have a comedy match to have a real serious grudge match to have a good tag team match good technical match i like a little bit of everything i think i mentioned it probably on lights camera barstool even if you're not a wrestling fan if you're a jackass fan it's worth going on peacock and watching johnny knoxville's match from this year at wrestlemania it was so well done it was so good random jackass pranks throughout we man comes in throws a slam slam They had the other guys come in

It was tremendous, it was so so so good I forgot about the jackass I saw a couple pictures of it But I didn't even see the movie The movie just went in theaters Out of theaters And it was during a time where the kids were always home So I could never just get out and go to the movies

It's streaming now, it's on Paramount Plus Yes, okay, well there I go But obviously make sure the kids are asleep So I could never just get out and just go to the movies for like a hour and a half. It's streaming now. It's on Paramount Plus. Yes. Okay. Well, there I go. I'm going to get Paramount Plus. But obviously, make sure the kids are asleep in a different room, padlocked, chair against the door handle. They cannot see a second of this movie.

So I guess there's no child trafficking. Child trafficking would be all right in it, but whatever is going on in Jack. I think it begins with the close-up of a dick. I'm pretty sure that's like the first shot of the movie is like you're like what is that and you're like oh it's a dick and balls they've still got it my boys in the jackass still got it shout out to them yeah all right i think we've got two episodes left next week will be the pen ultimate moon night episode recap this show is actually working at a pretty good pace as well it seems like it's like trying to peak at penultimate level which is nice it's not peaking in the middle this is like setting up for some crazy penultimate shit i'm very happy about that and i got a hashtag

for everyone that may and actually we're gonna it's gonna go perfect because it goes next week and then the week after is the finale. And then we're Dr. Strange. So it is. I can't wait for Dr. Strange. I'm seriously getting so excited for that. I feel bad for moon night and even miss Marvel. They're trying to like slip in some promotion for here and there. They put out the poster for they're really flying under the radar because of

Thor and Dr. Strange. I think it's hard to sell the general people. I'm like, check out this new Egyptian show. It's crazy. It barely to sell the general people i'm like check out this new egyptian show it's crazy it barely connects to the mcu when they're like but fucking dr strange and thor and the x-men i'm gonna be honest i'm i was excited about miss marvel before like just the idea miss marvel i'm just looking at i'm like you guys aren't selling me on it right now like

i'm like i don't know if i can do caps on this i'm just i need i need a hook on it i feel bad saying it i feel the same way, though. Yeah. Nothing about Ms. Marvel is making me be like, oh, my God, that looks amazing. And I don't know a lot about the character. I do know that she's bigger in the newer version of Marvel. And Sienna loves her, too. So I'm hoping it's a hit.

Sienna will probably love it. I mean, I don't want to speak about a show that I haven't seen too much of, in a trailer form or whatever but like it looks like it's it's made for young girls it looks like it was it would be a show on oh that was my text oh you got r2d2 yeah um it looks like it would be a show on like nickelodeon to me yeah like i carly or victorious or one of those shows and nothing wrong with those shows i was a huge i carly fan myself growing up but that's that's just what the vibe of the show looks like which is hey if we're calling for variety in marvel that's certainly one market that they haven't hit yet young girls maybe we have uh sienna and luke they could do the recaps for yeah my own basement junior yeah

whole new audience i don't know if that works for us i don't know if that's even legal to put on YouTube. Just a couple of young kids talking Marvel. What's the hashtag one more time? Hashtag basement of the lost. Instead of land of the lost, basement of the lost right here. For everyone that makes it all the way to the end. Anything for the comments?

Which we throw in the comments. Just predictions for a penultimate episode. Theories. As out there as you could get to I want to hear theories like Patton Oswalt Uh parks and rec Where he's putting the x-men and Chewbacca And Thanos all together I want to hear the craziest theories he got

Yep one crazy theory about what's coming At the end of moon night here because we Have two episodes maybe some theories about the hippo Yeah exactly or Or give us a Fun real fact at the end of Moon Knight here because we have two episodes. Maybe some theories about the hippo. Yeah, exactly. Or give us a fun, real fact, like something you would find out on Wikipedia about some historical thing and be like, I never knew that.

I'll give you a little thing for the people that want to do some digging. I think it's the 1908, the Summer Olympics, 1908. Here's a fact Alexander the Great's tomb has actually been missing For about 1800 years Is that There's our fact

I submitted this as a dog walk episode The thing that I did So I'll hold on to that There's your fun fact of the day I had no idea that was a thing They brought it up on the show And I was like oh they're just kind of making shit up The lost tomb just sounds cool too

You could say anyone You could say like the most ridiculous They brought it up on the show and I was like, Oh, they're just kind of making sure the lost tomb just sounds cool too. Sounds so fun. They're like the lost tomb of, you could say anyone, you could say like the most ridiculous, you could see the lost tomb of Billy Mays. And I'd be like, Whoa. And you know,

I bet Alexander, the great ones did to Cleopatra. Bruiser esophagus. Oh, yeah. It's Herb Dean. Co-stepping in. It is all over podcast. Yeah, it's Herb Dean stepping in. It is all over.

We will see everybody next week.
