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. I am your host, Robbie Fox. With me is Clem. I am not in my usual My Mom's Basement setup today. I am in Las Vegas at the M Resort. We are here for the Canelo versus Bavall fight. It'll be already happened by the time you listen to this podcast, but that is, or no, it won't be. This is a Friday podcast. So listen, if you're listening to this podcast right now, I beg of you, go to DAZN.com slash Barstool and get this pay-per-view. I'm going to be on the call with Dave and Big Cat.

We've got Ronan Caleb doing the interviews with fighters, celebrities, whoever's ringside, DAZN.com slash Barstool. That's how DAZN sees like, oh, Barstool is driving views. And then if this becomes a success, we do it more often. The basement gets elevated because of it. Everyone gets elevated. What are they? What's the phrase like?

Wall, water rises, all the ships, some shit. Tides, tides raise all ships or something like that. You're not coming to the basement for old English sayings, but that's the gist of it. And it's also DAZN.com slash Barstool. Because I'll be honest, I didn't know how to say DAZN for the first five years of its existence. And then I just found out, and now they're our best friends.

So shout out to DAZN. And these, I mean like obviously big cat dave those are the big guns uh we got roan there out is caleb there or just roan out here yeah caleb x factor with those two together but this is also like bob obviously the basement this is his basement and then large who has visited the basement before this is family here so shout so like hey if you want to do it you buy the fight make sure if you want to tweet erica and dave a screenshot and say i got this because i robbed me a club in the basement might keep the lights on for like at least another week or so so definitely um i can't

wait i can't wait to see this fight i can't wait i can't wait to hear this fight is that something i don't think anyone's ever said before but i mean i can't wait to hear this fight we're gonna be doing that on the zone and then we're doing a free pre-show as well. The pre-show is me, Big Cat, Roan, and Large. We're going to have guests. I think Eddie Hearn's going to join for a little bit, so look out for that. I think that's going to be 4 p.m. local time, Las Vegas time, so 7 p.m. maybe Eastern time on Saturday if you're listening to this on release day. But let's get into what people are actually listening to this podcast for, and that is Moon Knight, the Moon Knight finale.

It's out. The series is over. It feels crazy that the series is over. I know we had some six-episode series in the MCU before. Loki was six episodes and stuff. This doesn't feel like it's, like, over. It still feels like there's meat left on the bone for Moon Knight, and not necessarily in a bad way.

I just wish this were like an eight episode series. Two more episodes in the middle, I think would have made the show benefit a lot. Yeah, we've talked about this between WandaVision, Booker Boba Fett even. Loki, I think felt about right, you know, but some of these other things have just not been, it feels like the pacing was a little off.

I guess this is like a new frontier, this Disney plus TV show miniseries that could be a movie or whatever and they're introducing the character but i'm with you bob i feel like there's some meat on the bone it's not saying like i was like i was like oh i need two more episodes of moon night but i think if they had paced it better and like some of the stuff we saw this episode i I think there could have been some cool-ass shit coming up in the future. So definitely some meat left on the bone. And that was such a tough look for Moon Knight because we're taping this May 5th. Yesterday, May 4th.

On May the 4th, obviously it's a big Star Wars day, but Moon Knight having the season finale and it doesn't even get, it got straight up kicked off. The Disney plus top carousel was a tough look for Steven Grant, Mark Spector, Conchu, Jake Locke, whoever the fuck you want to say.

I think even Jose took a hit on that one just because he's such a moon night fan. That was a tough look for our boys there, man. I was not happy to see that. And you posted the tweet of it. And when I just read the caption, you said moon night has been,

it's a tough look. He's been kicked off off the docket i didn't quite like realize he was literally off of it entirely i thought it was going to be like he's not on the first slot of the second spot they had like 12 slots he wasn't on any of them they put every single star wars movie on there which as a star wars guy like i respect it's a religious holiday and all that but tough look for moon night they put book of Boba Fett on there. They put, obviously, Mando. Then you said, like, yeah, there's, like, the fucking prequels, and you're like, and Moon Knight on its season finale.

And, again, they were calling it season finale, not series finale. So I do feel like there could be another one here. And the way that the post-credits scene seems to indicate a season two, which I hope we get. Moon Knight, we talked about this last week with Jose a little little bit and how we would like compare it to other mcu shows i really hate to say this i think it would be my least favorite live action show that being said i enjoyed it every week i looked forward to it every week i just felt like this was like a really really good show that maybe never quite got great and there were great moments in it and the acting

was great and they were like there were certain things about it that were great but i don't know i just left this feeling not like blown away by it but by like being like i wish i had more yeah again i don't know if that is a thing where if they had maybe chopped it up done it differently it's kind of like with book of boba fett was like there was other than the mando episodes which are fucking through the roof awesome i was like there was there was something there and i liked it and every week i was like all right but then it was like it was kind of uh like i was like comfortably numb watching it where i was like oh that's cool and then it was like uh and then there was some parts that never really hit never fell in love with it never was obsessed with it never a 3am watch for us you know we never really stayed up for it that's true also it was a blessing and a curse in like the interest level because

it sucks when you're not super interested and the fans aren't super interested there wasn't as many fan theories for this as there seemed to be for the other ones but on the other side moon night became a show where i didn't have to watch it right away i didn't i wasn't really worried about anyone spoiling moon night for me at any point and I never got anything spoiled for me because people just weren't on it watching it the second it came out yeah exactly and I mean I guess for us we got we got lucky too and that Jose was so good with it we're like I felt like I kind of knew what was going on I feel like there's some people who are just like what the fuck for every single week which it was going down and I do think there's some there's still like enough unanswered stuff out there that could

be fun with the season two but yeah i never was oh my god moon night moon night moon night i'm with you and i don't want people to take that the wrong way i feel like when i especially am not like over the moon happy about something people are like bob hated it he must have thought it sucked like i truly did enjoy moon night i thought it was a good show. But it was just not like the Loki, WandaVision, that level for me. Not even, I wouldn't even really put it on like Falcon and Winter Soldier level, which I know some people were like, thought it was mid. I really enjoyed that show.

Like, we didn't get like that John Walker fucking shield moment in Moon Knight. We didn't get those type of moments. Let's talk about the finale, though, because we did get some cool moments in the finale. And I thought as far as wrapping it all up in one episode went, they did a pretty good job. I thought this was a very good episode. It was entitled Gods and Monsters, and this also just goes back to what I said last week.

I wish they would have went with title cards for every episode. If instead of like Moon Knight Episode 6, Gods and Monsters, just on Disney+, if it was like a title card that said and monsters just on disney plus if it was like a title card that said moon knight colon gods and monsters this is that chapter it would just hype me up a little bit more and this is like speaking of the canelo fight we got a fucking title fight we got two title fights in this one conshu versus amit and moon knight versus harrow

it's pretty fucking sick so we start with them pulling mark's body out of the water from where he got shot i immediately thought when i saw that and I didn't think of it last week, but like him getting shot falling into the water, that's got to be like the symbolic rebirth thing, right? He was rebirthed into the world through the water or whatever. Getting deep on us, Bob Fox. Getting deep on us here. Getting a little deep.

And then it's time to free Amit for Harrow and all of the followers. They have her little statue. Layla follows. She gets the scarab and is able to follow along and she has a really funny scene where she's like talking to a dead cop on the ground but Taurit, the hippo from last week,

is talking through the cop's body and trying to like help her out. She snuck along. I don't know how she snuck along because they were like in the middle of a desert. It's almost like we've talked about before, brothers, how he just like comes out of nowhere and it's like how did she sneak around in that desert there's literally nobody for miles but she's there didn't see her i did was didn't like weren't they like they knew she was there in the temple too and

then like oh she's gone and then they leave the scarab just on his chest which i i still don't know what the fucking scarab was supposed to do. I guess they kind of took him to Ahmet's tomb, I guess. But that doesn't seem like something you just leave behind, right? For like A, like potentially one of like Steven's friends, or B, just like anyone in the fucking world.

It just seems like an unnecessary thing, or like some detective or something trying to figure out who went to Ahmet's thing. I thought that was weird, and I was with you. I was like, was like i was thinking like it's kind of funny actually it was i actually thought of it in terms of like at barstool where there's enough of these followers that they probably don't all know each other by first name right it's like and when i go to hq for example there could be someone who was hired shit in 2020 i've probably never met because you just don't see each other. You know, COVID was crazy with the office.

And these people probably live all over the place. They're part of this big, happy cult together. But they probably don't, like, hang out together in the meantime and, like, know each other on a first-name basis. So the crew was big enough. I'm like, did everyone just think she was someone else's friend in the crew? That would happen at Barstool. I mean, it has happened at Barstool. I remember.

This is so weird. I don't know if i've ever told this on a podcast in the hq two days where the company was way smaller just way smaller when it was like all content was on one floor we saw some guy walking around one day kind of just like college age kid typical looking stoolie and we were like who is that guy does he work here and everyone didn't know so eventually i was the one who usually this isn't like a thing that I would kind of step forward and do but I was like went up to him I was like hey man what's going on I don't think we've met I'm Robbie like do you work here and he was like to be honest like I just dm'd the main account a bunch and said like I'll clean the

bathrooms or whatever and nobody wrote back so I just started coming in and cleaning the bathrooms and I was like what and he's like yeah just like people let me in and i think i told like maybe office manager brett what was going on and he was like yeah we can't have that oh sorry that manager i didn't mean to blow up the spot but there was definitely an element of like there's just a stranger in the office walking around with all of us well there i was gonna say i thought that you're gonna tell the story of the time where there was uh i think people are like watching a game at hq2 and someone's like hey man like you know what do you do like who do you work for who's your you know what's what's your job and he's like oh no i just like delivered pizzas oh i remember that he just was chilling he

delivered the pieces and just didn't say anything to anyone and sat down just hanging with the boys man hanging with the homies. I respect it. So everyone was just like, eh. Like Layla, I guess, played it off. She just kind of carried her. The thing is, I think she had long sleeves. If she had short sleeves, if you don't have the tattoo.

She had the hood and she had the mask over her face. So she was trying to be a little conspicuous or inconspicuous. I don't know. That's a good question one of those two she was trying to be the sneakier one but this was a good episode for leila this was like her best episode by far she's pretty badass she just she murked that motherfucker and like she she she got she knocked that guy out so easy the temple i was like did i just miss something like is she superhuman now because i i don't know i don't know what's going on but

again like i i bet if i had a guess if there was like any of these cult members who were like uh like suspicious or even one guy who's like security they probably just like like you probably just like look for the scales tattoo if they see it they're like oh they're good but if you have long sleeve on you're not gonna ask the person to pull up their sleeves right that's a little much kill the whole vibe and like dude you know j, Jimmy's been with us from day one. Yeah, exactly. It's like, what the fuck is with us? And then you're like, oh, yeah, go ahead.

new infinity stone powers in this phase of marvel because that was wild and to have like souls and they're they're like a distinct color. Actually, shit. I don't like this. I have to go back now. It should be the color of the soul stone. Your soul should be the color of the soul stone. Interesting. Feige, how did this fucking make it past your desk?

That's true. They did it purple. Right? The purple just meant to be like it's from the dark dimension. They're using that magic to take them or something. Oh, maybe it's from the dark dimension they're using that magic to take him or something oh maybe it's um it's because like there's an omit didn't the little cane turn purple maybe that's just the color of his magic which is also dark dimension usually it's like dark dimension mag agatha harkness used purple magatha yep so i don't know but i kind of agree with you on that soul stone thing that would have been neat kevin feige by the way not only did we mention this earlier in the season he came up with the moon knight like the wraps design for

the moon knight costume he apparently also came up with the stitching kind of going down mr knight's mask and like cutting the mask in half with a little tear that's meant to be like the two personalities and kevin feige came up with that himself shadow kevin is there anything that man can't do fucking trust the feige we're gonna be fine in this series and i'll take back my magic slander i'm sure it made sense with the agatha stuff i'm sure it's all gonna alt i haven't seen doc i haven't seen dr stranger i already got the tickets for tomorrow so i can get there um but i i take back the slander it would have been cool but there could have been also when he got the cane and then the cane switched.

Yeah, then there was a little bit of rainbow colors flying around. And then they kind of just like, all right. And they just all left. I was like, that was the weirdest exit I've ever seen in my life. It was just a weird whole mojo thing I had with that. So he kills all these avatars of the gods when he does that shit with the cane to bring Amit back. Release Amit. She's released.

She's a massive crocodile. People wanted me to make a note. Alligator Loki is an alligator. Ahmet is a crocodile. Two different things. So Alligator Loki is not sus, you know. He's still in the clear. He's still our sweet boy.

And Ahmet tells Arrow in an interesting moment, she's like, I'm going to kill you, basically. Like, when I'm done with you, I'm going to kill you because of the impurity. She doesn't, like like believe in pure souls anymore because of Alexander the Great and how he trapped her. But interesting parallel from Khonshu where Khonshu's kind of like, especially with what Jose's told us about the comics, usually taking advantage of Mark and Steven and Jake even.

And Ahmed's kind of just upfront about it. Like I'll kill you when this is all over and this also made me write down like is this all leading to Gore the God Butcher and they're showing us that some of these gods aren't good some of them are you know don't have their morals in the right place I don't know I think it could lead into that though

not only that Bob they said the line which I wrote down which I love he said you are judges not warriors as they're just getting their asses beaten so I love that Amit first uh at first blush first thing I thought of was the uh giant crocodile from hook that he kept in hook's hand that was the first vibes I got from her I kind of thought of uh happy Gilmore sad yes oh r.i.p our guy chubbs r.i.p that hand up in heaven um so leila is able to free conchu and he makes an offer to her like hey why don't you be my next avatar and she's like no absolutely not this isn't happening he doesn't sense mark's soul when he comes up though immediately he's like

i don't sense a mark in this universe what's going on obviously we know mark is in the afterlife kind of his his soul is separated from his body i saw maybe new rock stars or emergency awesome one of their videos described it as like the ancestral plane where he was where it's kind of like time moves differently the body's separated and all of that and amit is just while this is going on stealing the souls of all of those that were judged you see her getting bigger and bigger she becomes this monstrous figure over egypt you see the souls actually like she's like inhaling them the purple souls and kanchu creates it or kanchu makes daytime turn night a little later on in the episode skipping forward a little bit but to become more powerful to like go one-on-one with her and then they actually get to fight and they're like it's like a massive fight they look like King Kong and

Godzilla or something with the size of them I thought that was so cool Amit obviously continues stealing those souls and we cut back to Mark turning down the field of reeds and heaven and all of that to go back for Steven he's like I don't want to abandon my guy. This is another thing that Jose told us about beforehand where he's like, usually the Moon Knight arcs wrap up with Mark or Steven or Mr. Knight, whoever it may be, learning to make terms with the personalities, learning to control it. And I thought the scene where they did it here

was pretty good, pretty emotional. And it's interesting because it's also another one of these between Oscar Isaac and Oscar Isaac. But they have a moment where I think Osiris, the god, like helps them out, they said, and helps them get into the big temple with the glowing shit. And they have like a SpongeBob SquarePants moment I wrote down. In the SpongeBob movie, there's a moment where SpongeBob and Patrick get put under a heat lamp out of the water to get dried up because they want to like – Oh, it's fucked up yeah they want to make like a starfish fucking table weight out of patrick basically and spongebob so they start crying together and their tear forms a heart that wets them up and then they wind up doing that and

that was almost this moment it was like when they were finally like making good with one another they're like we're friends we can't live without one another you see steven like on crust or i don't know how you put that you kind of uncrust yeah uncrust that's the way to put it good scene though that's why you guys listen to this i guarantee no other fucking podcast all those fucking youtubers that have a billion views on everything and can tell you every single thing about moon night not one of them made that spongebob comparison i've never even seen spongebob the tv show let alone the movie i've probably seen 30 minutes of it just in the background my brother kind of got into it when i was like you know i'm six years older than him so i never watched it with him and my kids have never really dove into spongebob so i've probably had a half

hour worth of spongebob you know consumed in my life it's crazy so shout out bob fox with that fucking reference i'm gonna go people that know no that's legit reference right there i tweeted it just out of the blue i tweeted that moment when i was watching the spongebob movie not too long ago actually just because i was like this is such a great shout out three g exactly and i Shout out 3G, exactly. And I tweeted out a picture of that moment. I said, top 10 saddest moment in all of movies. The tweet blew up. It was probably my top tweet of the month.

It got thousands of favorites and retweets and all. I was like, what the fuck? Everyone agrees with this. So those who watched Moon Knight and the SpongeBob SquarePants moment, you guys know that. That was a legit reference. That Venn diagram, that's the circles, just hugging their phone or wherever they're watching this on their computer, whatever it may be.

And this is why moments like this is where I'm like, I have to just watch SpongeBob just so I have to understand the memes because it's like I need to, that is the next progression of memes. SpongeBob was a meme factory. So many. You didn't realize it at the time, but yeah. My reference, my pop culture reference, whenever I saw him in that little field,

I always think of Gladiator. I knew you gonna say that i was on there i was on the same mental frame with you there i knew you were going gladiator fun fact about gladiator that's the last movie that vince mcmahon saw wow that is a fun fact bob that we're on fire right now we're on this show i don't know how much people loved it but i'm telling you at least we're breaking the heat this this final episode shout out to mark too because being in heaven and hanging out with a talking hippo sounds like a pretty fucking good time to bail on that to hang and granted we learned him and steven have a very very deep connection that i don't think anyone could really realize unless they've been through that shit but mark just looking at a goddamn hero a lot of arcs for everyone in this show steven had his rise mark's had his rise everyone's kind of had their rise someone else had their rise later on um i also you got to give layla credit for holding her ground against

conchu who was really giving her the business talking some shit he had the extra deep voice on i love that when um conchu went in and was talking to Amit and she's like, time has been cruel to you. What a sick burn that is. Sad as time has been cruel to you is an all time sick burn. It's not quite up there with like all the lessons. That makes me think like, what did he look like when time wasn't cruel to him? Yeah, I did see that on, it was one of those recap shows. I guess there's like an image of him where he looks like a bird

and he's got the feathers and everything but not a skull he has the feathers and shit yeah so this kind of gives kancho a little bit of like levels to him now we're dealing with some dude who's looking watching this shit because he's a fucking skeleton maybe that's why he's so you know immoral because he's been through some shit in life yep yep and then finding out uh like we said with the temple fight that giant fight like you said it was kind of a godzilla versus king kong vibes the old people like me it was a little bit of rampage because you had like the little fights little people and they had the big monsters fighting and finding out that your dad was in the field to read like that has to be a nice thing for layla knowing that her dad's in a good place,

in the gladiator heaven, as I choose to call it. And when she turns, did you mention the outfit yet? No, we didn't. But I mean, that's like basically the next thing. She becomes the temporary avatar, quote-unquote temporary avatar of Talred the hippo. And there's a very funny, like interesting scene, the way they shot it, where she's like playing both. And she's like, oh, she's like oh i'm taking over as you and then she's like oh oh what are you doing

and she's going back and forth tauret shout out to her all these gods have like one thing about them where you're like oh they're perfect except for that one thing tauret is kind of the perfect god when you make the like chaotic good chaotic evil whatever she's just good good and she becomes the temporary avatar leila is a badass in this moment too her outfit's really cool kind of reminded me of like um what like wonder woman would wear before she left the uh what where where was she athena or something not athena that's one of the heroes no it's um it was it was was it the last wonder woman where she has like that fucking outfit on she starts

like that it's like you know wonder woman's origin people know what i'm talking about but it was kind of that cool greek goddess looking attire amazon and she was really cool when it came down to the fighting when it's her and moon knight going back to back it was like it didn't feel forced at all i was like oh i'm down for this this is fucking sweet and what is it scarlet scarab or something like that people are thinking that's who she's gonna end up being i guess there was a lot of hints to it when they're at the asylum she has it like on a band-aid or something like that they call her that yeah and now we got all these characters there's definitely a lot there we got leila she's now an avatar of a god steven's back we've got mark back i'm sure you're thinking

if they all got to eat that's going to be so expensive if all of those people go out to eat together right well i've got a solution for them and it's hello fresh it's america's number one meal kit i don't know if you can get it in egypt maybe they could ship it out for mark real special or maybe cons you could just like do something crazy where he teleports to here teleports there you know they teleported him to egypt in the first place they order hello fresh now mark i'll take care of it don't worry and then like uh mark wakes up and he looks in his fridge and it's all gone and he's like steven did you do this and steven's like i did i didn't eat all that who could have been jake is just fucking going to town on hello

doing all three of those for you in one. Just fucking have them take care of business. Do it! Do it for us. Do it for yourself. Do it for fucking Robbie. Truly the best. Getting back into Moon Knight, they find out that basically to defeat Amit and Harrow, they have to bind Amit's body or her soul to Harrow's body.

And it's because most gods, like, send themselves to some kind of different ancestral fucking universe. They set up a pocket dimension or some shit. And Ahmet is, like, completely in our universe and on Earth. That's why she's becoming so powerful. She's able to use powers at full force. And Moon Knight hits Harrow. Moon Knight becomes Moon Knight again. He kind of renegotiates with Khonshu.

Here's the new contract. He gets resurrected, all that. He goes and finds Harrow. He hits him with that Masvidal Flying Knee right away. That's the first thing he does. Boom! Flying Knee. I thought that was badass. They're just, like, cheering in my apartment. Great fight scene. It's not too, like, over-the-top CGI

fight scene-ish, where WandaVision got that way a little bit. This was more, like, hand-to-hand combat. There is obviously some CGI shit when he goes over the moon and he glides over it with the cape, throwing the Mota Rangs back-to-back with Layla. I thought the whole fight scene was really cool. Yeah, I definitely dug the fight scene.

And the way it ends, too. Where you're like, oh, fuck. Khonshu's fucked. Mark is fucked. What's going to happen? And all of a sudden, Jake takes over. And he's like, again, we. Khonshu's fucked. Mark is fucked. What's going to happen? And all of a sudden, Jake takes over. And he's like, again, we didn't do that, did you? And Layla almost looks scared of him.

Like, oh, my God. What did you just do? I'm kind of like torn. Part of me wishes I could see Jake operate. And part of me is like, it's kind of cool just being like, that dude just fucked everything up. Because it almost is like, it's like the Hulk. I could just see the Hulk after a while. It's just, he's just beating the fuck out of everything.

But I fucking love that guy. I think he's my favorite guy. I didn't, I changed. I think he's my favorite guy. Because he just, he just fucks shit up. He takes care of business. That post-credit scene was one of my favorite Marvel post-credit scenes in a long time. That made me like almost a Jake guy where I was like, oh fuck.

Like, I need to sign to it right now. I hope Oscar Isaac has already signed on for that. I would assume he has because why do a cliffhanger if he hasn't? You know, why leave the fans like that? I don't know. I guess anything could happen. Unless, yeah, they're just, you know,

teasing that for like a future appearance in a movie or something like that. That's the only thing. By the way, I know you're a cult leader, ethan hawke and i know you've taken people's souls and doing a lot of fucked up shit murdering people mentioning a guy's dead brother that's just fucking a bridge too far sir a bridge too far i saw you murder a grandma but like that was unnecessary which bed again i'm sorry dirty pool for the moon night people sorry for the tangents. But we got a new Obi-Wan trailer on May the 4th. And, oh, my God.

Uncle Owen roasts the fuck out of Obi-Wan in this trailer. He's like, the boy needs to be trained. And he's like, like you trained his fucking dad? Like you trained his father, Obi-Wan? Ben? Is that how he needs to be trained, Ben? Like you trained his fucking dad? Is that how you want to do it?

And Obi-Wan just starts, like, crying. He's like, oh. That's a tough look though like you're responsible for the fucking man that took like i we always are like holy shit vader is so like evil and badass to just be living in fear at from this fucking the as the empire just takes over the world and it's this one dude who you know could just like choke you to death just thinking about it yeah ben kenobi has some tough L's ahead of him in this show, I think. And I want to pull this up. I saw it on Instagram this week from a guy.

I think his name is Daz Tibbles on Instagram. He does some awesome stuff. I've sent you some of his stuff before, like some Cad Bane artwork and stuff. And he just made like a fan-made poster like this. And you see Vader with his helmet half off. And it really got me thinking i think we're gonna see vader like that because why do you bring hayden christiansen back if we're not unless you're gonna do flashbacks and stuff like that but it's been pretty made clear like hayden's

playing vader like hayden's happy to play vader and all of that he watched the whole clone war so i think we're gonna see fucking half-faced vader again yeah because because I don't think it makes any sense, like you said, to bring him back unless it's that. Obviously, James Earl Jones is doing the voice, so it's not like he's doing the voice. It's just like you wouldn't bring him back as a stunt body. Yeah, so I hope. And by the way, for everyone listening that is into Star Wars,

we'll be getting into that. That's the same time as Stranger Things. A lot of shit coming up on the basement. It's the same time as Stranger Things. A lot of shit coming up on the basement. A whole lot of shit. And Ms. Marvel. All right. So we could save it for the end, but we'll save it for the end. So we'll put a pin in it.

Get back to Moon Knight. Put a pin in that. People are probably like, Jesus Christ, guys. Get back to Moon Knight. All right. We're back into Moon Knight. They do successfully put Amit's body into, or Amit's soul into Harrow's body with that chant

that they did, and they kind of all binded together with the chant. That was weird. It was weird. But like, on a show like this with gods and shit, alright, I'll deal with it. Contract kind of frees Mark Stephen from Khonshu, because when they renegotiate

it when he comes back, it's kind of like, I'll do one more thing for you, and then you're going to free me. So he's kind of freed temporarily from Khonshu's spell. And then they wake up Mark and Harrow in that mental hospital that we saw them in. Now it's again like, oh my, I thought we were, I thought we knew what was happening for a second. Now we don't again.

And Mark seems to be confused at first, but then realizes he's in control of things. Him and Steven can swap back and forth whenever he wants, which is another cool thing in the fight that they did a couple times. Steven, as Mr. Knight, is no longer afraid to fight. He's a badass and stuff. But Harrow starts walking away from him, and we see bloodstains on the floor. And you think back to the first scene

where it's like, oh, glass in his shoes. Why is he bleeding as a doctor? I didn't really understand what was going on as I watched this. I had to watch YouTube videos that explained what was happening here. The way I saw some people explain it was basically that after all the shit with

putting Ahmet's soul in Harrow's body, they bring him to the real mental hospital that we see in the post-credit scene, where it's like, we're going to put you in here. And then there's a time jump, and eventually Khonshu, he doesn't talk to Mark or Steven, he talks to Jake, remakes the contract without them knowing, and then is fucking with both of their minds in that moment. That's at least how people explained it online.

I hope I explained it decently on the podcast. It is confusing. It is a mindfuck. It is also par for the course when it comes to Moon Knight. It's like if we didn't have a mindfuck ending, what are we even doing here? And then we see the post-credits scene. Mark, or Jake actually, picks Harrow up. You don't see who it is at first.

You just see gloves. He's speaking Spanish. And immediately you think back to what Jose told us. I think he spoke multiple languages as a cab driver, so he could be those eyes on the ground, ears to the ground.

And he takes him out, puts him in a car service, and immediately you gotta know once it's a car service. Contra's sitting in the back seat with him. They start talking. Harrow's like, oh, you're not going to fucking do shit, you pussy. And he's like, well, I'd like you to meet my new friend, Jake Lockley.

Fucking door goes open. The little window shoots him with a pistol a couple times, drives away. Harrow's dead. Awesome way to kill him off in the post-credit scene. And just fucking, this was a badass post-credit scene. Even my girlfriend watching it with her, she doesn't know anything about the comics or anything she enjoyed moon night she enjoys all the mcu shows when he says jake lockley i had hyped it up so much all season like i bet there's a third there's a third one even she was like oh jake lockley like we're

going wild it was awesome yeah when when we wake up at least so we have the asylum my note here is oh god damn it we're back in this asylum because i'm like what the fuck's going and again then i'm just like does did any of this even happen even though we've talked to jose about moon night multiple times i still don't know what the fuck was going on at that point which again anyone who didn't watch the jose video before this god bless you if you made it through this in one piece. Because I would have been like fucking Mark. I would have had three different personalities trying to figure out what the fuck was going on.

I liked at the end where they had the two goldfish. So it's kind of like Mark and Steven are both out there. And apparently there was a lot of symbolism and like the stuff that's in the tank and stuff that happens in the show. So this show is littered with Easter eggs. Apparently that again, I'm never,

I don't think I'll ever rewatch moon night, but I do appreciate that shit is in there. That just is like a good attention to detail. And yeah, like you said, Jake Lockley, he's my favorite guy speaking Spanish and speaking it like fluently. Like he does like awesome.

That just, I geeked out. I thought, was there anything like when you saw us you know speaking spanish and he's bringing him to the car was there anything you thought might have been going on that wasn't what happened yeah well i didn't know for sure like i was in my mind i'm like oh i hope that's jake i hope that's jake but i really didn't know and like when he spoke spanish it almost threw me off a little bit because what we had heard of Jake is like, oh, he has that New York accent that give me the gabagool.

And then he comes out like, oh, hola. And it's like, yeah, it's way different. But once, you know, once he was in the car service, I was like, yeah, it's got to be. They're not showing us the driver. I thought. Yep. I thought it was just like a goon. The guy speaking Spanish.

We didn't we're supposed to know who he was. And I thought he was bringing it to our girl, Elaine Bennis. Oh. And we were going to have some sort of tie-in with that. What's his name? Valentina? Oh, you know who I thought it was? For a second, I swear.

I'm kind of remembering this. For a second, I thought it was going to be that Bushman guy. I thought they were going to introduce us to that guy. And they team up season two, but obviously different direction. I think if they do do a season two, that Bushman guy will probably thought they were going to like introduce us and like they team up season two, but obviously different direction. I think if they do do a season two, that Bushman guy will probably be the villain though. That, that feels like,

and they're gonna have to dial up and the show was called. I guess the brother could be the villain to what Jose told us about. Yeah. If, if he comes back, that would, that would be completely different. I love how Jake also just fucking threw the wheelchair to the side.

I was like, fuck this guy. Fuck his wheelchair. And I'm telling you, man, Jake and my guy, Khonshu, they are going to fuck some shit up. Like, this next, if there is a season two of Moon Knight, I'm going to go in excited that these two are probably going to be, like, a good amount of time together. And that is bad news for all the bad guys out there in fucking Cairo or wherever they end up. I think they're in London at the end. Is that right?

I think they're back in London. Yeah. They're back in because they're back in his apartment. Remember he like trips at the end. That's right. Yep. Yep. Yep.

So yeah, but I I'm excited for the future of moon night. I think we are going to get more moon night. And I think just making this Jake Lockley thing at the end of the season like that, it gives like another layer of depth onto the whole show where it's like oh conchu was making mark think like mark was like oh i'm the victim here i gotta take this out for conchu it's like in reality jake is conchu's guy you're just kind of buying him buying the time till he needs jake

again you're there you're like the shitty hours where jake is has to sleep basically no one wants to deal with you guys conscious just making small talk with mark and steven and doing business just tickling their balls he's not doing anything i love it i love it um so you said this is the bottom of your rankings as far as the live action shows go i think it would be now that being said i don't think we've gotten a bad live action show yeah there's nothing that i hated um or like truly disliked there's like oh i gotta watch this again but it was definitely the lowest and i'm not surprised and thank again i'm like just fucking blowing jose on the podcast. He just made it so like, I probably would have fallen out at some point just out of confusion

other than the podcast, obviously. So I think it's like, I think it's Falcon and the Winter Soldier did have some moments, right? It's like had the shield moments. They had those Zemo moments. Those are pretty sweet. Oh, I forgot about Zemo.

Remember Zemo on the club? Yeah, that's the first thing i thought of when you said that so i'm gonna have to put this last as well do you have a fast food item for what you would compare this just thinking about that and i don't know what my fat do you have one that you could go with first well i think yep so i'm gonna go with a chicken bacon ranch subway sub oh so going in so going into moon night it's like i kind of had an idea what to expect again thanks to jose and i think whenever you're getting a subway so i'll be kind of an idea it's gonna you know how it's gonna be there was some cool ass shit the cool ass suit right that's kind of the bread smell you go in subway you always are like oh we got some fucking

fake ass bread smell in the air which again every subway smelling exactly the same will never stop bugging me out for the rest of my life and then you eat it and i was just like all right i was fed i'm full like you know mission accomplished lunch has been eaten but that could have been better i could i would have been fine with something else. And it's like, even, even if someone else had made this, if you got chicken, bacon ranch from like a deli or I don't even know,

it's Quiznos still alive. Oh, I don't know. It's a good question. I've never had Quiznos. I loved Quiznos back in the day. Yeah. I love Quiznos.

Um, but it's like at the end of the day, I was just like, eh, I just wish it could have been better. So, uh, I'm sure there's gonna be some people who are very upset that,

uh, you know, I slandered subway. I've never been a subway guy. guy i i have great delis in my town i've always had great delis fun you're a subway guy go check out um on this channel right here my mom's basement channel we did a recent episode with meatball molly ufc fighter that barstool sports signed a spinning backfist episode and she told us about the origin of her nickname meatball molly and it comes from her working at subway while she trained and she would go to the origin of her nickname meatball molly and it comes from her working at subway while she trained and she would go to the gym after her subway shift and everyone

would say you smell like meatballs and that was the origin of meatball molly she showed us a picture of her like in a mascot subway suit where she's dressed as a sandwich and everything just a just a delight of a human being go check out the two episodes with Meatball Molly. Even if you're not a fight fan, I think you'll enjoy how funny she is as a human being. And also, in one of them, I got leg kicked. Because Clem, we hit 20,000 subscribers. That's another thing we could kind of celebrate. We wanted to hit it for the Peacemaker dance. Unfortunately, we couldn't.

That was a big ask. And we got it for a leg kick, which hurt a lot more than a Peacemaker dance would have. It hurt like a motherfucker. It still does, actually. We're learning quickly. They liked it. Like, I think the basement people like us, but I also think they like to see bad things happen. Like, you had to smash the egg on your face when we got to.

Was that 10 or is that five? That was 10. That was 10. On Christmas Eve. I remember getting home from Christmas Eve and we hit 10 that night. So it's pretty quick to we're here May 5th as we record this, at 20,000, so thank you to everyone who's been supporting, subscribing

from my mom's basement itself to the new Spin and Backfist MMA show, it's all under the same umbrella, it's all stuff you talk about in your mom's basement, so I figure it all fits here, and I appreciate people, oh, and the new merch too, check out the new merch, Nathan Hurst our guy, I don't know if you could see it on the, uh, real life, but it's embroidered.

It's actually got the patches. We've got the Chewbacca one where it's a Chewbacca-themed stoolie. It's a navy blue. We talked about that last week. I'm not even going to try to do the Chewbacca call because that was bad last week. And we've got this as like joggers. So it's a whole jogger set. So go check that out.

The Stool Stars. StoolSports.com. When it comes to what you were going to say about miss marvel before you want to talk about that now yeah okay so again i feel like the like i think moon knight maybe falcon the winter soldier i think they were is it worse to have a bad movie that you sit through for two hours or is it a bad show for six weeks that you like and i'm not saying moon i have a bad movie that you sit through for two hours or is it a bad show for six weeks? And I'm not saying Moon Knight was a bad show, but just something you're not like, yeah. So it's six weeks of like 40 minutes a show.

To be honest. Right? Yeah. So what do you think of like, I don't like, maybe we, I don't want to say not do Ms. Marvel. We have to like figure out a plan. Like is Ms. Ms. Marvel going to be worth it?

Cause just seeing the trailer, I was like, I don't know how easy this is going to be to talk about. And I, I also do think Ms. Marvel is a very important character. My daughter fucking loves her. So I kind of,

I'm getting to know her, but I'm like, do we maybe do like a peacemaker end of series recap? And if it's fucking like the, the surprise hit of the summer we just jump in episode two or three or do we with the listeners should we be like yeah you know episode one comes out like tweet like hey do you want us to recap this show episode by episode because i feel the same way as you and i i feel bad like sleeping on a marvel product not trusting the

feige here but i watched that trailer and i think we mentioned it on one of the moon night recaps we were both like it kind of seems like a show that's maybe rightfully made for young girls that i carly audience and that's okay but maybe not for us it's not us yeah it's it's just like it's good that you're expanding and that's another thing you're about to see dr strange dr strange like pushes things forward where you watch that movie and you're like oh okay this doesn't like click into the typical MCU mold. Where some of these movies, I love the MCU, but, like, take Black Widow and take, I don't know, one of the other new ones. You could kind of swap the directors and you wouldn't tell a difference. They fit in that MCU mold, which for better or for worse, sometimes it's good because it's like all of these movies fit together so well that they do feel like one cohesive story and i love that because that's

what comics feel like but on the same side having that variety is awesome so i guess we'll play it by ear with miss marvel especially being that stranger things and obi-wan are going to be out at that time like i have a feeling people are going to be much more interested in those i did see miss marvel's coming out exclusively in theaters in Pakistan because it's a Pakistani superhero, and they don't have Disney Plus over there yet. So, like, every week they're putting out, like, episodes in theaters, which is kind of cool.

Oh, shit. Yeah, that's awesome. I didn't even know you could, like, do that. That's a thing. That's fucking cool. Yeah. But, yeah, I'm looking June 8th, so we're going to have Obi-Wan will be humming at some point.

I like stranger things. We have to be one and faders in the show by that point. Yeah. And then we're like, I'm saying, do we, are we going to want another thing in the basement? You got spinning back this fucking crushing.

There's be a lot of shit going on. Plus I don't know how we're going to figure out stranger things. Cause stranger things was always a bench show for me where I just binge it. And I don't know, do we do like after episode recaps or do we do just cause it's going to be part one of the two-part season recap so either way it's gonna be a lot of shit just between those two shows and if miss marvel forces our hand we'll fucking i have no problem doing it at all it's good it's just like it's just like if if moon night i just know if moon Knight had come out in June 8th,

this would have been tough to get this and all that in and give it the love it deserves, right? So I'm just... I was just thinking out loud. You guys let us know either way, but I think we may have to... Everyone let us know on Twitter this week, just like...

Recalibrate. We know what you want to hear on the podcast. We're a show for the listeners, by the listeners, kind of a Barstool Sports slogan there. So we'll listen to you. We'll take your suggestions. I have an idea. How about if Patty kicks you in the leg?

No, no, no, no, no, no. I'm calling it off immediately. No more leg kicks. No more. Oh, my God. How are we feeling, too? Let the people know how we're feeling right now. I don't know if you've done an update on Twitter or anything,

but just let the listeners. I'm real sore. I wonder if I could take my pants off to show the people the bruise without showing anything else. Hold on. I'm going to show the bruise here. It's not as bad as you would expect, at least I don't think. But like...

Do you see that? Yeah. Yeah, that hurts. There's the bruise. It feels like... You know when people give you a dead leg it feels like someone gave me a dead leg three seconds ago clem and this was what three days ago this was over 24 hours ago and listen if you're a fucking all right unless you're a doctor don't tweet at my boy bob about

what he has to do or what he's gonna have because of it because i'll tell you when i hurt my calf celebrating the javi baez uh like basically stealing home i had like so many people telling me all the bad shit was gonna happen to me it was like a bad episode of going on web md and it scared the shit out of me and ended up being fine and i'm not saying that's not what's gonna happen to bob they're telling me i'm getting blood clots hematoma i'm gonna get a blood blood blood clot on the plane it's gonna go to my heart i'm gonna die i'm like am i gonna be killed by a leg kick is a leg kick gonna take that's right you're traveling too yeah oh i did and then of course people start tweeting you at that the hypochondriac in me is like let me go on webmd look up hematomas immediately they're like do not get on a plane and i was like well i've been on a plane for four

hours like i was looking it up in the sky imagine telling d hey Dave I can't go to Vegas for like the biggest thing in the company why because I'm scared I might have a blood clack as a whole people on Twitter told me so he'd fucking fire you on the spot he fired me just for working with you on the spot but you know what I think I truly think I'm fine I've been walking around on it limping a little bit walking like a pirate. But it's not like you saw the bruise. It's not like, oh, my God, that thing needs to be looked at by a doctor immediately. It's like, I took a leg kick. I bet our boy large is going to have a gout flare up in the next 24 hours.

So you guys will be hobbling together. It's all right. Fucking big old toe. All right. So did you think of a fast food item? I won't hold you to it. Sorry. I did think of one. And I completely, like, forgot to mention it because we went on something else.

And I hope I don't piss anyone off with this. I would go with Popeye's fries. I love a Popeye's chicken sandwich. Their fries, I think, are good but not great. They're like, I'll eat them every time I get a chicken sandwich. I'll get a side of fries. I'll finish the fries. But I never eat them, and I'm like, oh, my God, I love these fries.

Like, I am with McDonald's. Like, I am with with wendy's like i am with so many different other places popeyes okay that's a good that that's a good call we actually uh we went to a mall the other day and there was weird selection of food and popeyes was the only thing that really had like chicken tenders for the kids and i was looking and i i got them the fries like you guys aren't and i like could like eat their fries because it was like a whole way more than they could eat and i'm like yeah i'm just not a big pop and the funny thing about popeye's fries it's the one place where i'm like i might go with a different side here today like that and kfc are the only two places where i always think a different side kfc it's because they got rid of the fucking potato wedges

those scumbags i will potato wedges was say potato wedges were way better than the fries they currently have. I do think their current fries are pretty decent. I think they're better than Popeye's for sure. Oh, yeah, definitely, definitely. Popeye's fries, it's just like the seasoning. Sometimes I'm not in the mood for that. Whatever's on the chicken's enough, but I'm with you. By the way, that's another issue.

And it's not like I get delivery. I go to the Popeye's. We got one right across from the office, and they always give me me the fries and they're always like room temp i'm always like and what is it louisiana fast is that what they say louisiana fast louisiana fast so i is it fast because the fries have just been sitting around for a while i don't get it i don't want in the back yeah come in we'll just put it in a bag for you. Their chicken sandwich is pretty legit, though. I went through phases with it where I tried it when it first came out, and I was like, I don't know if this is worth the hype.

I still think Chick-fil-A is better. And now I think Popeye's is better than Chick-fil-A. So I'm with you on that. It almost felt fake, the amount of hype the Popeye's chicken sandwich was getting. And by the way, everyone who's upset that we're not talking about Moon Knight, this is technically our review of Moon Knight. So we are still talking about it in this Popeye's talk.

Um, I thought it was like fake. Cause there was just so much hype around it. Cause I'm not, I'll have Popeye's once every five years back in the day. And then I ate that sandwich. And the only way I can review it is it bites you back. Cause it is like a fucking hunk of chicken.

I've never had anything like it in my life. And again, I love the Wendy's spicy chicken. I love Chick-fil-A. I always, you know, McDonald's, I'll fuck with their chicken sandwich. The Chick-Shack has an underrated one. The Chick-Shack? Popeye's is the king, though, of the chicken sandwich. And I did see they have a new Buffalo Ranch sandwich out right now, too.

So maybe that'll... Not a big ranch guy, so I'm excited like that. I'm going to say that's going to be like Jake Lockley. I think that's going to be like, oh, that's some fucking mean-ass shit right there. That's going to bite you. That'll really bite you back. It might fucking punch you in the face, too. So I think we're on this together.

And like you said, we've got Doctor Strange coming up. We'll have a review at some point i guess next week is that is that when we'll do it your bob's obviously in vegas yeah i guess i guess monday or tuesday it depends on when i get back monday or tuesday okay so if you haven't seen dr strange yet watch the everything you need to know about dr strange with jose and then we'll have a recap for you guys next week no spoilers tomorrow things we talked about in everything you need to know about dr strange did come to fruition i'll just leave it at that i saw i saw someone tweet that and i didn't know what it meant it just said jose and

had like a mind-blowing head-blowing uh emoji so i'm guessing some shit went down there so our boy hit the nail on the head yet again. So, hell yeah, man. Oh, and I got the hashtag for everyone that made it to the end. Hashtag 20KNIGHT. Hashtag 20Knight. Because this is 20K. It's Moon Knight combined. I like that.
