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. Thank you. Hello and welcome to Game of Stools week six.
It's Robbie Fox, it's KFC, it's Trent, and it's Old Man Clem, who appears to have aged 10 years since the
last episode.
Bloggers age
very quickly at Barstool. We all
know this by presidents. A 10
year time jump was just too much, so
I'm struggling right now, fellas.
This is tremendous. Each and every
week, I don't know what Clem is going to bring,
and each and every week, he knocks it
out of the park.
Unbelievable.
We had to have Trent back for the time jump.
It was only too fitting.
I continue to be a prisoner of the moment with this show, but that was one of the best episodes of this whole shit right whole shit right here that was unbelievable theater
from front to fucking finish man that was at 15 out of 10 episodes time jumps fuck my head up i
don't know if it's because i was like predetermined to be confused by it or not like it but like i
just i thought we had a lot of good things going in the before 10 years that was
that's my only thing is like like i get the time jump and now we've got all these different
storylines going on but it felt like there was good stuff going on before we jumped and now we
jumped and now we're in like a whole different fucking thing dude it was gonna take a lot because
i loved some of the kids i loved like uh young Ranera was awesome
I like it for sure like that could have kept going on and I would be happy with that tv show
so you really gotta nail it if you're gonna just like take everybody's favorite characters and
yank them away after five episodes and I think they absolutely crushed it I'd love a little
spin-off give me another couple episodes see what what the kids did in the in-between.
But I think
we hit the time
jump and we also went like
zero to a hundred
with every storyline
and the villains and the
deaths and
somehow throughout it all
Homeboy the King
still alive.
Unbelievable.
Stunner!
Do we think, I mean, he's going to get, he might get another couple episodes at this rate.
It's fucking crazy.
I thought he was going to die at the end when he looked at his ring.
I was like, he catches the wrong glare and he might drop dead.
Yeah, no.
I mean, he is hanging on harder than anybody has ever hung on here.
I feel like – could we see a scenario where he lives the whole season?
Dude, I tweeted it.
I tweeted that he's the Tommy Lasorda of Kings Landing.
He just sticks around.
I can't believe – he's got me convinced now that if we jump another 10 years,
he's still going to be there.
I just don't understand.
I cannot believe he's still alive. If we jump another 10 years, though's still going to be there. I just don't understand. I cannot believe he's still alive.
If we jump another 10 years, though, will he have, like, no limbs?
Will he just be a body and a head?
For my Always Sunny fans out there, it's like the episode where Frank's nosebleed just keeps
getting worse and worse and worse.
And by the end, his face is, like, rotten.
I mean, if he survives till episode 10, I don't even know what they're going to do to, you know, to display just how badly he's aged.
He it's so disgusting.
I love it.
I want this guy to make it as many episodes as possible.

We're going to find out that he is actually Daenerys' dad.
And he made it like the 200-year-old.
Yeah, Targaryens. they got something in their blood.
Yeah, let's get right into the episode because there's so much to discuss this week.
Just notes wise, this was definitely the longest episode for me.
So we go into the episode with Rhaenyra giving birth.
It's a boy, and the queen requests to see the child immediately.
Like the second it's popped out, they're like, we're going to escort that thing to the queen for you. And she says, you and she says no no i'm gonna do it myself i'm not giving this baby up right away
so she insists on bringing it despite the pains the afterbirth pains a lot of gross sounds to
start this episode sounds dude that the squelching noise of the being born like we didn't need that
hgl we didn't need that all right We could have just dealt with the screaming women.
You don't need the sounds of a baby coming out of a vagina.
Christ almighty.
Tell you what was hilarious was Lenore's reaction.
You know, this is the guy who allegedly just had a boy, you know, this is his son.
Right.
And he goes, it's a boy.
Well done.
Imagine saying that to your wife right after she gives birth.
You walk into the room and you go, well done.
Thumbs up.
Good job.
Rainier struggles on the walk up.
He's like, I don't even know if you should be doing this.
And Allison gets this big reintroduction shot when we push into her where it's like, this is Allison, everyone.
Remember her?
The king has one arm.
He's holding the baby with one arm right away.
I would be a little skeptical if Rainier had given it to this one arm right away i would be a little skeptical if i'm rainier like giving it to this one-armed freak um allison i gotta say doesn't look too different than the actress we had in the past
rainiera looks a little bit different very similar she doesn't even look that much older to be honest
they look uh they did a great job of casting where it's like those look like two girls who
could have been you know 10 years years older than the last two.
I love this showdown.
We'll talk more about it.
But these two bad bitches going head to head, I like both of them.
And there's things I like and dislike about both of them.
So there's no, like, clear-cut, like, winner for me right now.
So, like, this is an awesome showdown.
What's the point of having a dragon if that dragon can't fly your ass to the fucking queen?
Yeah.
Instead of you hiking up, bleeding everywhere as your dickhead husband.
By the way, anybody, any husband out there or anyone thinking about having a kid, don't talk to the girl that just gave birth to your son and be like, I got hit by a lance once.
You know, I had a charley horse playing softball once.
Shut the fuck up.
The fact that you didn't chakar his ass on the spot when he said that is fucking a miracle.
There was blood trails.
When he stopped and the trail of blood was back to her, that was some of the most –
we need like a gangster meter for this episode because there was a lot of gangster behavior.
But starting out with her being like, fuck you, I'm going to walk this baby up up there myself loved that move love it's like a snail trail it was gross oh uh rainier has got three kids at this
point uh they're they're you could tell right away not lanor's because they all have brown hair and
everyone's like oh lanor pat on the back maybe the next one will look like you buddy and i don't
think that's ever gonna happen sir harwin is the father who was the strong
brother that broke up the fight last week which is interesting it's like oh everyone's fighting for
ray nero well she likes the guy breaking things up peacekeeper peacekeeper i love that everyone
i said the same thing i'm like they all have curly brown hair they all curly brown hair
the dad's black and the kids are not black no Everyone just ignored that. The dad is black with white
hair. We could not be
further away from
the fucking father. They really made it super
obvious too. It was so heavy
handed. They all had the exact
same hair as heroin. We could
have made it a little bit less obvious.
We get it, but those are not
Leinor's kids. They're not.
This whole episode
of House of the Dragon
is just one gigantic
medieval Maury Povich episode.
It really was.
We're given birth. We've got
multiple fathers. We've got gay
and straight. We've got
warring houses. We've got dead
bodies. I mean, this was Maury gone medieval.
And how about this?
Leonor takes it upon himself to name the kid Joffrey without consulting Rhaenyra whatsoever.
Kind of an Adam Levine move to name the baby after a former lover.
Yes.
That so this is where you got to fill me in because I can't even keep up with all the names.
So Joffrey at this point is who?
The one that got his face bashed in last week.
I was.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
His lover.
Yeah.
Yes.
Yeah.
That is a full-blown Adam Levine.
Full-blown Levine.
Oh, I didn't catch that at all.
Yeah.
I'm thinking of, you know, our Joffrey from the, you know, Game of Thrones.
Big time.
That guy getting his face smashed in.
Got it. You would think
though, like, if he's doing some sort of like
in honor of my past lover,
he wouldn't have waited until his third, but whatever.
I don't know. Okay, whatever. Ten years, too.
Dead lover for ten fucking years.
At some point, you gotta get over the fuck.
It's been a while. It's been a while.
Get over it, dude.
Get over it. There's a baby dragon
in training for one of the kids.
Its name's Vermax.
And this is a badass looking dragon for it being a baby, you know?
It kind of walks up all creepy, comes out of the shadows.
I kind of thought the opposite.
That was the first dragon I didn't like.
Oh, I like the baby dragon.
Maybe because I'm a baby Yoda guy, you know?
Well, I thought that that dragon, I thought that that whole scene, when you see these kids, these Targaryen cousins and shit, I don't like any of them.
No.
I'm going to start to like the bastard kid because he's putting the pieces together and I think he's going to become likable.
But right now they're all snot-nosed assholes, particularly Aegon and those guys, right? No. And so I thought that whole scene was like these are the spoiled brat kids and this is almost like his spoiled brat dragon companion.
We come here.
Like you can't not feel bad for that goat just getting fucking barbecued, you know?
So it was like you're not even catching your own food.
We're chaining up the goat and he's all like can i do it can i do dracarys and it was like the
whole scene usually the dragons are very like honorable and like all that shit so that dragon
like he even looks like a little like a little almost like a spider when he came up or something
like yeah like a little sort of thing rather than a a regal dragon. So that was the first time I was kind of like, fuck the dragon here.
The Dracarys thing did feel a little bit like Disney.
Like you're at Disney and you're like, oh, it's the little kid's turn to say Dracarys.
Right, right.
That whole scene did not sit well with me.
And the little, the oldest one, Aegon, right?
His face just looks like a little,
they do a good job of casting,
which is funny because they're real life humans.
If I were to meet them, I'd be like,
you got a real punchable face, you little prick.
But they do a great job at doing that.
He does.
He looks like a shithead.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's like a Joffrey, the Game of the game of thrones joffrey and then the
pig prank which by the way having a pet pig would be fucking i understand it's not a fire breathing
flying dragon but having a pet pig's pretty fucking cool too the pink dread with the wings
that was kind of cute come on come on i would have been like yeah fuck you guys this is my
new is my new boy i'm rolling with the pig yeah take the leash walk away with it like i fucking
love the pig did you guys get any vibes with the goat i was thinking what do we fucking know the one thing i
know i learned this when i was like 10 years old fucking t-rex doesn't want to fucking be that t-rex
wants to hunt same with dragons all right so don't tie a fucking goat up and have them do it man it
was just sad to see sad to see but you get a little bit of sympathy for reynera's kids because
allison's kids suck way more and obviously are bullies.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, they bully one of their own brothers, too.
That was made abundantly clear in the yard where they're practicing where we meet – or not meet, but we see now your boy Clem.
I mean, Kristen Cole was a guy of some people here on this panel.
He is maybe the biggest motherfucker in all of Game of Thrones, man.
It was Robbie?
Yeah, Robbie was me.
Listen, I rebuke Kristen Cole.
He's a piece of shit.
Piece of shit.
He's a zero, bro.
He is a fucking loser.
The worst of the worst.
When he was dropping, when he dropped a cunt bomb.
Ah, you're the cunt, dude.
Get the fuck out of here.
This guy legit called Rhaenyra a cunt.
In front of Alyson, too, where Alyson even gave him a look like, all right, but you can't say that.
Yeah, especially when it was like, dude, you were simping for her hardcore a decade ago just because she couldn't be with you because, oh, I don't know, the Iron Throne calls and you had to be a little bitch about it.
Now you switch gears and, you know, instead of being the love of your life who you broke your vows for, now she's a cunt all because she had to, you know, deny you.
Get the fuck out of here kristen cole biggest loser since um he might be
the biggest in all the realm right now like in both series that guy flat out stinks since since
uh since old joffrey joffrey baratheon right that's like basically what we're going back to
right i think he's worse than joffrey baratheon i'm ready to call that you know how bad you have
to be of a person to have a girl that's been beefing with
another girl that used to be her best friend?
You call that girl a cunt and she's
taken aback like, whoa, bro, you went too far.
Mean girls
thrive on the word cunt. That fuels
them in a fucking beef with another girl.
And this girl's like, easy, Kristen Cole.
You fucking wanted to suck that...
Well, the thing about...
It's interesting with Allison and you see it up until the very end of this episode.
Allison is not sure who she is yet.
Allison's not sure if she's going to be a cutthroat queen who, like, my husband's about to die,
and I'm going to slaughter these fucking kids so that me and my family rule the realm? Or am I still, you know, a nice person and a good person who, you know,
once just kind of got plucked out of obscurity into this world?
Because she's like, she knows the deal.
Part of it is still like done out of honor.
And part of it's still now done out of, you know, selfishness and her own power.
And then at the very end which
we'll get to she's like whoa whoa whoa i didn't ask for that but it's like you kind of are on
this course babe you better realize what's going on here yeah and that all comes after a conversation
between alice and and the king where she kind of implies like hey i'm surprised those eggs
hatched at all because actually they're not Tardarians. She doesn't say that.
Everyone kind of dances around it,
but she says that and he's like,
don't fucking imply that in my household.
Watching the King and Allison
is a lot like watching my mom and dad.
Like my dad is just so blissfully
and purposely like ignorant to like all the fucked up shit of the world.
He's just like, everything's fine.
Everything's fine.
And I know that he knows deep down, yeah, none of those kids are his.
But he's just like, I just don't want the drama.
What are you talking about?
Everything's fine.
And my mom's like, are you a fucking idiot?
Are you an absolute fucking idiot?
Of course, what are you talking about? And she was like, do not, do not, do not.
And it was like, oh, my God.
I hear these two do this all day long.
Because King Viserys, I don't even know.
Viserys?
Viserys?
I just call him King.
King.
Get to the finish line.
Like when they propose the marriage, he like great idea great idea let's just
do that and it's like no dude that is never gonna fucking work and he's like let's just do it
everything's fine right we'll be one big happy family of cousin fuckers like all of our past
behind us you know all of our past uh family and she's like no you moron he's just so dopey
he goes with the family feud answer right away great answer
great answer great answer yes let's do it put it in put it in let's go um we see one of the most
shocking scenes of this episode now where allison walks in on agon jerking off out a window like
he's roman roy what was that first of all i do gotta say bob say, Bob, you with that wig, you got a little bit of,
I look like him.
What if I take the glasses off?
I'm going on,
you know,
like,
Oh,
Jesus Christ.
Oh,
Jesus Christ.
You,
you,
you have,
you have that look without the douchebag,
uh,
like,
like spoiled brat look.
But I mean,
if,
if you,
if you wanted to,
if you were a writer of a TV show and you wanted to smash your viewers over the head with the idea that this teenager is an absolute prick, here is how you would do it.
Zero subtlety.
He's like literally jerking off on the people.
This was like as much of a like here's this character's – here's what this character is made of.
But that's the same window
that Tommen jumps out of.
It's the exact same shot, basically.
That's the window.
The way they framed it, he's behind it and everything.
Do you think that's Chekhov's masturbation
where later on in the season he's going to be like...
I think that is the window,
the key for this, whatever it is.
But I said the last time a load that useless went out that window,
Tommen was just falling to his death.
That's good.
That's a good one.
Really good.
That's where Royal Seed goes to die.
I like that.
That's where Royal Seed goes to die.
That's a good one.
I like that.
Could you imagine?
I would imagine most guys out there maybe have a time or two that their mom or somebody walked in on them.
And you had to quickly put a pillow over.
Hey, mom, I'm in here.
Why didn't you knock?
Could you imagine if you were standing in the windowsill jerking off out the fucking window onto the people?
And she doesn't even give a fuck.
She's just like, that's how much of an asshole that kid is.
She was unfazed by the fact that he was jerking off out the window.
Probably not the first time.
No, probably not the last.
No.
Right.
I mean, think about it, though.
If you jerk off out the window, like down like a million floors,
you're not going to just do that once.
Like, what am I going to just jerk off in my bed?
Like, that's way less cool.
Once you've done that, you can't even get it up for anything ever again that's right you do ruin you
do ruin yourself but you just got to keep jerking off out the window before she opened that door
she's like all right what is like the worst case scenario i'm walking into jerking off out the
window was like top three best case scenarios she's like onto the innocent people outside thank
god do you think uh do you think that actor did that for real?
Like that was that kid?
Jerked off?
Got hard?
Not that he maybe was jerking off, but just like we saw his cheeks and he was wiggling
and like there was, I don't even know if you do it.
I don't think he, no, I don't think he jerked off for real.
That guy just had to be like, all right, action.
I mean, just like wiggle my cheeks and wiggle around for a little bit.
Super awkward.
Remember in Girls when they tried to say that Alison Williams wasn't getting her ass ass eaten out it's like we saw the guys no we're straightening their ass
if she wasn't getting her ass eaten out i don't know what they were doing because his face was
in between her cheeks and he was just something we skipped over and forgot to mention by the way
what did you guys think of agon going down into the uh or it was amund going down into the lair and seeing that dragon that was uh that's one of the motherfuckers right
yeah i don't know what to make of that i feel like is that foreshadowing he's yeah
is he gonna go in there and steal it one day like he's a crazy kid they kept saying like he you know
he keeps doing this it's not the first time i also i didn't realize uh
they say later that 50 don't get an egg so like hatch yeah i guess that makes a lot of sense
because there's a lot of fucking people and not that many dragons but they make a big deal out
of people who get dragons and you don't it's actually a lot like encanto i was gonna say the
same thing kevin yes did you get your door? Did you get your special powers?
Nope.
That sucks.
But, yeah, I don't know what that kid's going to be yet.
He scares me, though.
There's going to be something with him.
I don't know what it is, but there's going to be something with him.
He's weird.
He's a weirdo.
This is going to piss the panel off, but they made the same talk about Bran.
Like, Bran, you're always just crawling around everywhere, sneaking around,
and then the motherfucker got pushed out a window by the end of the episode.
Aemon, something's coming back with Aemon snooping around for sure.
And he gets brought –
By the way, I know that, like, in order to – when you make these real worlds,
George R.R. Martin does it, like, it's how it would be.
But we've got Aemond and Aegon
and Lagon and they're all the same
fucking names and I can't keep up with it.
That's why I just call people King and Princess
and Guy with the hair and all that.
They're the exact same fucking names.
One last thing about
the jerking off out the window.
Before it even leaves my mouth,
I regret saying it.
I'm just happy Game of Thrones has taken us there again.
They don't give a fuck.
Like Trent says, they make you feel uncomfortable, and I appreciate that about this show.
Yeah.
But you know what?
Let's just think real quickly, logistically, about doing that.
That's one of those things in your head you think that you're, like, spraying it out the window.
In reality, it's just's just like dripping off the tip
and like it probably doesn't even reach it probably hits the window so it probably doesn't
even actually go anywhere you know it's not even like peeing where you can get some distance that's
just like now you're standing on the window so it would come on your hands i think you gotta save up
for it you gotta you gotta wait a couple of days like sit on a bag of peas you're like oh it's been
it's been like three or four days. I can do the window thing.
I can go out there and I can jerk off out the window.
You're right, though, because on a normal velocity, it's not going that far.
There's some poor guy walking through King's Landing on a crutch,
and he's just like, what was that?
I don't know.
Keep moving.
He's got that prey bird shit on you.
Like, it was a pigeon, sir.
Don't worry.
It was a pigeon.
It's like, no, that was a princess.
It means good luck in the realm
when a princess comes.
I fear that we've actually
dissected the episode 2
in depth at this point. But I can tell
you what, the HBO one is not giving
you this. So make sure you subscribe and everything
on the podcast if you haven't.
Now we cut to Damon and Lena.
They are now married, Damon and Lena.
They ride together. rides vagar the
largest dragon in the world this thing is fucking colossal um they're married with kids at this
point and they're offered a permanent residence in pentos pentos potentially needs help against
the triarchy who damon battled already at the stepstones and damon considers it lena has no
interest they have a conversation about it where clearly their marriage is falling apart.
I like that girl.
So that was the original like 12-year-old chick, right?
So she's like come a long way.
She seems to be, well, I mean, it ends up being short-lived,
but she was kind of like a ride-or-die chick.
I like that couple.
I'm sure we'll get into what happens with her, but yeah, you,
you kind of see, I mean, listen,
I think enough of us have seen enough spoilers to know we are on a collision
course for Rainier and Damon. We know where this ends up.
It's just a matter of how it ends up there. At least that's what I think.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure in the books, those two,
that's where it happens. So you kind of see how everybody is you know eventually gonna uh come to a head
um but what's cool like it's almost like when people complain about spoilers it's like the
really good shows you can be spoiled and still it's still good to see like how you get there
you know so i you know this is falling apart that's falling apart this guy's dead that girl's dead now let's see how we get there and
um um i don't know whether it's you know next episode next season whatever it may be 10 seasons
from now i have no idea knows how long how long it'll take but it's cool to see how you know we
can at least get that that rolling one of the things i didn't like about the
time jump is that we had damon he had two wives died in two episodes one died last episode and
one died this episode like things just happen too fast like that's a good point you know what i mean
like my game of thrones is i know who these people are when they die i'm like oh fuck like i didn't
even know who his first wife was she's dead the second wife we jumped 10 years forward now they got all these kids and then she's
dead by the end of the episode that type of shit i don't like yeah well i think you also remember
like by the end we're so used to the end the last thrones we watched was you know 80 hours worth of
like development that we like knew in the beginning you know, you got to get to know these people.
And if the very first season is going to, you know, jump around this much,
yeah, there's no time to get connected to anybody.
But that almost – that's what I'm saying.
Like, I think that's, you know, kind of signaling, like, we have to –
we got to – this is the book.
This is what George R.R. Martin wrote.
We got to get through some things here.
But, you know, these are the major players that we got to really worry about.
Yeah, true.
I guess I don't know what the, like, trajectory of how many seasons we're going to get is.
So, like, this could all be nothing.
Three or four.
They said three or four.
Yeah.
So, you got to think, you know, a couple episodes is, if you have five episodes, that's like one of the whole series you know so if you're in a
couple of you know these people might not matter at fucking all by the time we get down to the
nitty-gritty that's true and they said in the inside the episode a lot of this is just laying
the groundwork for the kids to go fight in this war and this scene lays the groundwork for that
where lionel and the king are watching the kids train together. Kristen Cole is training Allison's kids
and not even really paying any attention to Rainier's kids.
And Harwin notices this, and he's like,
hey, dude, I think Princess's kids could actually use some training as well.
So he goes, okay, how about the two firstborns spar?
Obviously a mismatch.
The one is much older.
Aegon is much older than, I think it's Jacerius, Jace they were calling him.
And they spar. Aegon really much older than, I think it's Jusarius, Jace, they were calling him. And they spar.
Aegon really gets the better of him pretty quickly.
Jace puts up a good fight.
He has fury behind him as a little kid, but he gets taken down and Harwin has to pull
Aegon off.
And then Kristen Cole's like, hey, why would you do that?
You're looking after this kid like he's your own kid.
And then that makes Harwin snap, beats the shit out of Kristen Cole.
Kristen Cole doesn't even fight back and kind of like a true chess player.
As he gets pulled off, he's like, huh?
I thought so, dude.
He just laid there and let those just took those shots.
Like, like the Joker.
Okay.
Yeah.
I mean, that was like, you know, uh, fucking hook, line and sinker.
You played right into my hand.
I mean, you think about the, uh, that meme with the dominoes, you know, line, and sinker you played right into my hand. I mean, you think about that meme with the dominoes, you know?
One little joke in the fucking courtyard practicing leads to so much.
He's got to leave town, and we got people dying and all sorts of shit,
all because homeboy just couldn't keep his cool.
Again, after like 10 years, that's what i will say is a little bit dicey like
first of all i feel like rain era aged way more than everybody else like everybody else kind of
like you said looks the same or like the kids are still kids and the adults are still adults
the king is still alive but rain era goes from like little teenage girl to like this full
fucking woman that so that feels a little bit
weird and also it's like you know i think by now 10 years three baby three sons already that don't
look like you like a lot of this would have already been an issue i feel like so i quite
get why it comes to like this burning head now other than that's what we need to happen for this
tv show ray nearer sneaks out to see Harwin at this moment
and catches his dad yelling at him.
Always an awkward moment.
Always an awkward thing to be there for your friends, parents,
yelling at them, or even worse, your lover's parents yelling at them.
Yikes, awkward.
And he gets warned by Lionel.
He's like, everyone knows there's a fucking cloud
hung over our family at this point, so this is bad.
Leonor stumbles in drunk talking about war, talking about,
Wait, war's coming back. Can't wait to go back to sea.
Talking basically like he's a musician ready to go back on tour.
He's thrilled about it.
And she's like, Absolutely fucking not.
Are you kidding me? The past 10 years that I've put in?
I demand you to stay here.
Also very similar to my parents.
My dad stumbling in drunk, all excited about something.
And my mom being like, are you out of your fucking mind?
We're not going anywhere.
So yeah, that's, that's a lot.
That's, this is, there's a lot of fantasy in Game of Thrones.
Those couple scenes are really how marriages work for sure.
The Mets are playing in the playoffs.
We're not going anywhere in October, you fucking moron.
Are you out of your mind?
Dude, first of all,
he's talking with Carl with a Q.
I was like,
oh, we have a Carl in the show. He's just like our Carl.
He's a little zany. You never know what he's going to get to.
And it was spelled with a Q.
If that's not the gayest shit
you've ever seen.
You're named Carl
and you're growing up
and you think you're straight and you're Carl and then you think you're straight and you're Carl.
And then you realize you're not.
And you're like, name change.
I'm now Carl the Q.
Put some fucking pizzazz on that shit because I'm gay, baby.
You talked about the gangster meter.
I don't even know what was more gangster by a girl in an area.
When she's carrying the baby up as she's just leaking afterbirth out of her.
Or when she called her husband a cum guzzler.
She's like, you've been guzzling everything in the goddamn house.
And then you said it, Bob.
She goes, I command you to stay.
She dropped the C word on him.
And I'm not talking about the cunt.
I'm talking about command.
It was unbelievable.
What a performance by her tonight.
We go back to Damon and Lena's family.
Her daughter, their daughter is heating up her egg because she's like,
they all want you because of your dragons.
Like, are they not going to want me?
Because I don't have a dragon yet.
And this is where she tells her, don't worry.
Not all of them hatch or whatever.
She's concerned, says her father ignores her.
Damon ignores her or whatever.
And she's like, she's doing it.
He's doing his best.
All right.
And Lena tells Damon she misses her brother.
She's like, don't you ever miss your family?
And he's like, I like to whine up there.
That's what I miss.
But no, not my family. Not at all all we're not anything alike miss lena and that
was kind of their last scene before like the birthing scene that was kind of like their last
conversation together that we saw bro that that scene i mean there's been some heavy scenes
already we had the the c-section scene uh some heavy birthing scenes i didn't know what
did did any of you think that i thought for a second that like uh first of all i didn't think
vhagar was gonna do it no vhagar was gonna like somehow help the baby be born or some shit
also uh which imagine that if a fucking dragon delivered a baby.
I also – because of Game of Thrones early seasons with the Dothraki, when Dany gets like burnt but she's okay, I thought that maybe something was going to happen there and like the baby was going to be born that way.
No, just straight up barbecue. like i can't take this anymore i don't want to have i'm not going to go out by you know some midwife like slicing me open well they did slice her open
well oh they did yes well she had blood she had it looked like they sliced her open she had like
a whole slash of blood across her stomach i wasn't sure if that was like we tried to do like the c
section and it didn't work,
but either way,
her just being like,
I'm a dragon rider and I'm going out like on my shield sort of thing was,
uh,
was,
I mean that,
that scene of,
of Vhagar being like,
are you sure?
Are you sure?
Are you?
Cause there's really no coming back from this one.
You gotta really be sure if you want to Dracarys this.
So, I mean, that was some gut-wrenching shit, but also very, again, gangster meter through the roof.
No, I'm with you.
I thought they were going to find a baby in her ashes.
Yeah.
That's 100% what I thought was happening.
I guess it's not 100%, right?
Because she's, or I guess she is, but she's not Targaryen.
She's Valyrian.
She's Verian who just
married in yeah the dragon but if you but that's what i don't get i thought that uh is nick popping
in here because yeah me yeah danny like danny's magic separate like that her not being burned
that's not all targaryens the show kind of made it seem like that she was the only one but like
that's just like something she says she thinks that i one but like that's just like something she says she thinks
that i think but like that's just very unique to her okay that makes more sense because that so then
yeah i mean but okay pop back in for a second because like i thought that targaryens ride
dragons but she's riding the biggest one in the world all she did was marry into this shit right
or do valerrians have dragons too?
The Valyrians have dragons.
Anybody from Old Valyria, any of the blood from there can ride a dragon.
Because Laenor's got one too.
He's had one since they did the little crab-feeder battle.
I think Corlys, does he have one as well?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think he does.
Yeah.
What's happened to him?
Is he dead?
I don't even know.
No, he's around.
He got mentioned in this episode
He wasn't in it was he?
He just got mentioned
Kev I heard that we're getting a Corliss spinoff potentially here
Let's go
I saw it on
I saw it on Twitter so it must be true
But I don't know if the chat has heard this
But that would be fucking awesome
I don't know if he has a dragon though
Because I think he just does the ships and shit like that.
But he's still awesome.

right now is that it's kind of diminished dragons a little bit dragons used to i thought be like
nuclear bombs the end all be all yeah like you just have like this thing and some people have
and some people don't and you can still lose wars and people can still beat you and all that kind of
shit well it's like the star wars prequels some people said't. And you can still lose wars and people can still beat you and all that kind of shit.
Well, it's like the Star Wars prequels.
Some people said they did that to lightsabers. In the original trilogy, you saw maybe a lightsaber ignited once or twice a movie and it was a special oh my god thing.
And then it was just like a CGI festive lightsabers in every prequel.
So it's almost similar in that way.
People in the chat, the high council, are also saying that lena's mother uh was
targaryen so she was part targaryen part valerian half and half uh this is a good scene though that
we're getting to here reynira makes a good suggestion to the to the table reynira or
allison hates it she rolls her eyes immediately as soon as the king is like great idea yeah we'll
go with that and then they talk about the stepstones once again the war at the stepstones they're like didn't we deal with that 10 fucking years ago jesus christ there's
one guy who i wrote abe simpson they got sitting at the table who's not paying attention at all
and he just brings up the last topic that they were talking about they're like we're on to the
stepstones abe come on uh rainiera apologizes to allison makes a big gesture where she says i know
that our families there's been a bit of strife, but I apologize for any of that.
That might've been on our end.
I think that our firstborn should marry your daughter.
We'll reunite the families.
I think that's like his aunt, aunt and niece or something.
And then to be quite honest with you fellows, her nips start leaking.
So it's a bit of an awkward ending to that.
Yeah.
There's no other way to cut, to put that one, man.
No other way to put it.
Leaking.
That's a modern day problem that,
uh,
it could be 2022 and you can be at your desk at your,
at your,
you know,
corporate job in front of your computer,
or you can be in the realm.
Uh,
your titties leak when you're pregnant.
It just,
it's a problem that all chicks got to deal with.
That happens.
And,
and we respect women for that.
But it is funny that it's like in this day and age
that's we're gonna be embarrassed by that like we don't have showers this place is
disgusting i'll let my tits fucking leak we got kids jerking off out of windows it's embarrassing
in the modern day to have your fucking shirt get all wet who gives a fuck i'm surprised she didn't
look down like oh that that's what you interrupted me for? Like, I don't care.
I got milk coming out of my nipples.
Whatever.
Whatever, dude.
She went piss dogs right away.
She just peed her pants to prove a point.
Like, I don't care.
Start spraying people with those fucking things.
Like, you guys got a fucking problem with the goddamn princess.
The heir of Dragonstone.
My son is the heir to the Iron Throne.
The king loves the proposal.
Alison does not.
I love, again, the king's reaction.
It reminds me, the king and Allison remind me of Tobias and Lindsay.
Where it's like, this is joyous news.
And she's just like, shut up, you idiot.
Like, no.
Like, I love that line from Allison.
I think she said something like, oh, how kindly the Fox talks when the hounds have her, have you cornered,
whatever the exact line was, was like money. And, and again, the King's like,
she's, she's being nice. He's like, no, you fucking moron.
She's being desperate. So, uh, but that, that, that exchange,
there's a shot where they both are still standing and they're looking at each
other from across the table and she's proposing it and she's kind of rolling her eyes.
And it is just like these two bad bitches need to get in rough and rowdy 10 down and just duke it out.
Let's go.
They did a great job carrying over that tension from the young actresses.
Like it's exactly the same as it was last week, I felt at least. lionel goes to the king to resign the hand of the king goes to him to resign
he's like my son has brought too much shame upon my family and the king won't accept the resignation
unless he like says it he's like say what the dark cloud is or else i will not accept this he's like
i cannot but allison's in the back like say it say it she takes her camera out she's like
please please say it say it on camera i'm recording right now he definitely hope that
ass whooping in the yard was like that's the reason that's the reason yeah that's why that's
why this is going on we just gotta get out of here he's like say say what's actually going on
he's like it was the ass kicking that whole thing that's the only reason why just a little schoolyard
fucking scuffle over you know some secret dad shit and that's the only reason why just a little schoolyard fucking scuffle over you know
some secret dad shit and that's the whole reason this everything's fucking blowing up man wow how
about our girl alice it most reckless thing of the entire episode when she says to the king you can
do that when i am cold in my grave bitch this guy is immortal he's just dropping fingers i think he
lost two more and he was limping to start the
episode with all the fucking harry's loss that you will be cold in your grave your sons will
be cold in your grave and that guy will still be breathing on the fucking also not to mention he's
the king and it's like okay i'll send you your fucking grave and i'll just you know i'll ride
with my daughter again i mean he's too much of a pussy for that he's not that that type of king but
she's still she's certainly running her mouth uh and and that that's also where i like uh we can talk about lord lord laris here because i think he
is an awesome villain uh the first the first taste of a little finger for this for this series uh
him and his clubbed foot little sideways foot you knew he was you knew he was shady
last episode when he was talking about the tea the abortion tea and he was like oh i must be
mistaken sorry uh what do i know like playing it real coy um but when he's like when he's talking
to her it's like this is like a chick who is on the verge of breaking bad, and he's kind of pulling her over.
But when she was like, I need my dad right now, and he was like, you can't think that your dad would be partial, impartial.
And she's like, yeah, but he would be partial to me.
I love that one.
I know he wouldn't be impartial, but he would be on my side, so I want him back, you fucking idiot.
But that's where i thought we started to
see you know like her true colors started to come out where she's obviously out for herself and then
i mean lord laris you talk about not since uh not since stannis set shireen on fire
on the uh on that that thing whatever it's called i mean he just lit up his dad and his brother, right? Like, no fucking problem.
Imagine
someone being like, I
did not ask for that, dude.
You did that on your own.
You set your father on fire.
I never said to do that.
But man, he took matters into
his own hands on that one.
That's a guy who just wants his dad and his brother dead.
That was the reason.
She said something
to the effect of it, and I wanted
it so we did it. It was on her.
Chill out, dude. She's like,
I'm in the room for breakfast.
I don't even know. He's like, how about I just kill my dad and my brother?
What are you talking about?
And then brunch. Breakfast, but not
lunch. Brunch. I'm just going to brunch. Just kill your dad
and brother. You always say that, Lord Larris.
I'm throwing it out right now.
And I know it's not the same.
Come on and club club.
It's called Club Clubfoot.
Everyone who rides for the club foot, it's called Club Clubfoot.
The fucking stock is rising for this guy.
This is Littlefinger.
You're getting Littlefinger at bargain basement prices right now.
This guy is going to be the whole fucking show is going to be the house of the dragons
about a guy who doesn't even have a house in the neighborhood of the dragon it's unbelievable
true i agree with that actually it is crazy we we got a little taste of little finger-esque action
with otto hightower but this feels like way more of a little finger when he gathers up all of those
criminals and he's like hey we can make a nice little exchange here for your freedom and i'm like is he forming the suicide
squad right now like what is happening in game of thrones right now and he cuts their tongues that
he doesn't do it himself he has someone do it but they heat up this knife it was actually almost
oddly satisfying you know how easily that thing sliced through i agree i'm with you on that too
bob there's like Play-Doh.
Listen,
there's,
there's some horrific ways that you can cut out a tongue,
I would imagine.
But if you just eat it up and it goes through like,
Ooh,
like a knife through butter.
It was nice.
Nice through butter,
Kevin.
You guys,
you guys got issues,
man.
While,
while I do completely understand what you're saying,
the fact that you're saying it out loud is fucking crazy,
man.
That,
that was,
that was,
uh,
one of those things.
Like,
I don't think we,
we needed to even,
I mean,
it's game of Thrones.
So like,
like show it all let's fucking go.
But I think we got the point.
I think we knew what they were doing.
We didn't need to see it go all the way fucking through that fat tongue of
yours,
but I guess you guys out there were satisfied.
So good on the fucking show.
It was nice.
It's going to be on my Instagram explore page tonight.
There must've been some weird shit that went down in that apartment.
When these guys are roommates,
man,
they must've like pimple popping.
They must've been going back to like e-bombs and lively shit.
Pimple popping is too far for me.
I can't.
He's off.
He's not.
Oh,
I was satisfied. Satisfying. He called. I can't. Too far. That was satisfying.
Satisfying. He called it
satisfying, Kevin. Guess what? One of
them has pus.
P-U-S-S.
Pimple popping is
a bridge too far.
Can we all agree on this? I'd rather watch
a thousand guys get their tongues cut off than
listen to the sounds of birth again.
Oh, yeah.
Like Kevin said, the squelching.
Disgusting.
I do think, though, I think Lord Laris is a little bit like teaching her a lesson.
Not like actively teaching a lesson, but I think she learned the hard way and the fast way.
Ain't no ain't no
such thing as halfway crooks here in the realm you're not you can't be half in and half out you
can't be making a power play for the throne and and you know putting people in their place unless
you're gonna fucking like do it are you are you queen or are you not and i feel like she you know
when she was like i didn't say that he was was like, well, you didn't, you didn't realize you said it,
but you said it and you're going to like, you know,
in a few months, years, whatever, you're going to know,
like this is how we got to act. So, but that, whoever that actor is,
he does a very, very good job at being like that coy little, like,
did I, Oh, did I set them on fire?
Dr. Evil-esque, but actual evil instead of funny.
She's like Walter White after he sets the hit on the prison,
and he just sets the timer, and then it's done with, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And she's like, oh, shit, I just sentenced these guys to death.
They gave him, if you notice this,
they gave him the little speech as they're kind of doing the montage.
That's some Littlefinger shit.
That was Littlefinger's signature move back in the day.
So this is our new Littlefinger for sure.
Great scene.
Great scene.
Craziness.
And Harwin says goodbye to Rhaenyra and the kids because he has to go back before he gets burnt.
And Jiserius, their son, straight up asks Rhaenyra, am I a bastard?
So he's catching on to it a little bit.
How could you not?
He's, what, maybe eight, nine years old.
But his cousins are probably whispering shit. You know, the, the sand is not real shit and stuff, but about him, he's a bastard, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Rainier says, if you're a Targaryen, there's something wrong here.
Rainier just pats him on the head. She's like, you're a Targaryen. That's all that matters. It's very Obi-Wan Kenobi from a certain point of view, you know, kind of.
Well, that's, you know, my man needs to learn a quick lesson in spin zone.
Like, you know, don't worry about that.
Just keep saying Targaryen.
Just like Trump and shit.
Just be like, whatever, Targaryen, Targaryen, Targaryen.
We have dragon.
Those bitches don't. Bottom line. There you go. Rhaenyra tellsgaryen, Targaryen. We have dragon, those bitches don't.
Bottom line. There you go.
Rhaenyra tells Laenor they're leaving.
She's like, we're getting disrespected here. We should have left
a long fucking time ago. We're getting out of here.
Pack your shit. They're off to Dragonstone.
She says, the wise sailor flees the storm
as it gathers. We know war is
on the verge here. She doesn't want to be around
the king, Alicent. She knows that
shit's going on at the hand or whatever. She doesn't want to be around it. Iison she knows that shit's going on at the hand or whatever she doesn't want to be around it i i respect that she's like once she's like
i've been undermined here you know once once you kind of lose your status it's like sometimes you
got to trade a player because they you know once once they've had an embarrassing season or
something's gone wrong it's like you, you need to change the scenery.
The queen, the princess needs to change the scenery.
The Strongs arrive back at their home.
They get burnt alive.
The people wearing the bee pin,
that's going to be some sort of thing.
The bees are kind of his new gang or whatever.
The people with their tongues cut out. We get that dramatic ending with the Laris voiceover.
Love is a downfall, he says.
Totally puts the murder on allison as
we were talking he's like oh yeah you said it so i i trust that you'll reward me when the time is
right and that was the episode big dramatic ending allison obviously probably going to bring her dad
back into the mix we saw auto hightower in the preview for next week someone's going to steal
the big dragon vagar uh the queen
allison pulls a knife on somebody and just seems like a lot of drama next week seems like an action
packed episode clem uh for for all the podfather people out there you might want to run back that
speech because lord laris kind of hits the nail on the head when he's like, what are kids except a real big pain in the ass?
You know, he's like, they're a folly and they're dangerous.
And they, you know,
you have them because you think that they're going to give you purpose and
you think that they're going to carry on your name.
And at the end of the day,
they're just like a big money pit and a big fucking problem.
And I mean, really think about this.
Think about this whole shebang is just about who's fucking who
and who's popping what babies out.
What color are they?
What man are they from?
What house are they from?
Is it a boy?
Is it a girl?
Which line are you in?
It's just about kids.
Really, Game of Thrones is one big family planning you know fucking fiasco and if you just
if if you just fucked off like if sir kristin and reyniera just bounced and went to uh essos and
just fucked each other till they were dead if if uh if jaden smith and his boyfriend q carl just
they fucked each other and had a blast everybody everybody who has kids their life stinks in the modern real
world it's like wow you cost a lot of fucking money and i can't have any fun anymore and back
in the medieval world it meant like well now because you were a certain gender or from a
certain man or whatever now we're all in a life or death situation where we might be eradicated
because of our fucking bloodline thanks a lot kids
it's a nightmare i can't believe anybody procreated back then that was a great that was a great speech
that's my notes what are children but a weakness i have me sold that's how i get down to the club
clubfoot i've been there for life now after he said that it really is though i mean it's a weakness
where it's like you love them but you got to treat them basically like a pawn you know because it all
you know it all is all just for like the i think at one point he said it's like you love them but you got to treat them basically like a pawn you know because it all you know it all is all just for like the throne i think at one point you said
it's best to go through life unencumbered was part of it boy that's that's nice that is
what is that's nice what is the the most what is the hardest thing that trent goes through other than trying to handshake george bush
this whole thing without talking about george w bush did you see the opening you're in the
opening george w bush's hand i saw it i saw it that was he wouldn't give me his hand
all right i had he thought He just wanted to take a picture
With fucking Frankie Borelli
And he wouldn't let me shake his hand
I was like let me shake your hand
I don't know if anybody said this
In Goldeneye when you don't have a gun
And you're doing the karate chop
And you see the hand come out
I said something similar
I said it looked like
The view that I had
Which is just like first-person view,
it looked like I was pressing B trying to shake the president's hand.
The 43rd president of the United States wouldn't give me his hand.
Slappers only.
Trent lives slappers only life with George W. Bush.
It is nice that you got it at the end.
If that video did not end with you getting it,
we'd be living in a different world right now.
I agree.
I made it happen right at the end.
But yeah.
It was funny too.
I texted Trent and I said,
you know,
it's kind of funny.
Like there was a time where people said that George Bush was like a war
criminal.
And now like,
he's just kind of this funny internet character and people don't care.
And Trent wrote back,
uh,
my mentions are saying otherwise.
Yeah. My mentions were like, back uh my mentions are saying otherwise
yeah my mentions are like hey better wash that blood off your hands like all right all right
i'm at a golf tournament i don't know what i'm doing all right this is the most trance been encumbered his entire life his mentions about a guy's hand he shook me and kevin have gone through
literal blood sweat and, and tears,
shit, piss, whatever else you want to talk about with our goddamn kids.
Just Trent, just trying to shake somebody's hand.
I've been humbred.
It was 50 Cent in the car, Tiger Woods, Where You Stationed,
and George Bush.
Trent's biggest concern in life is just awkward interactions
with celebrities.
Well,
we have to like keep these little humans alive.
It's crazy.
I can't meet famous people.
It's just like,
it's hard for me to meet them because something goes wrong.
If,
if Trent met King Viserys,
he would definitely try to shake the hand that he doesn't have anymore.
Right.
Or I'd rip his other arm off.
Pull it off like a mannequin at a target.
Whatever.
So Trent,
you had the clip that,
you know,
went wild on Barstool platforms last time where you were stunned at the 10
year jump.
Now that we're here on the ball scale, tell us how you think they did jump-wise.
I know you were a little more confused.
Executive producer's ball scale.
We do have to use the ball scale because he's the executive producer.
Is Glennie the producer of this show?
I saw that off the rip.
Executive producer, yeah.
Executive producer.
No, I can tell.
I think that I didn't – like when I first came on here um this episode I didn't like it but talking
through with you guys I like it a lot more like I just I really do think that my brain is so stupid
that it thinks like let's just stay with these same characters on this same time stupid I think
that's that's a very fair take you've been watching five straight weeks of something and
you liked it.
That was a series finale
for those people
and those actors and stuff.
I don't think that's that crazy to be like.
I think anybody who, you can still
like the show and also acknowledge
that I still
would have liked it to keep going on the course
it was. I just feel like I've seen more flaws early with this show
than I ever saw with the original Game of Thrones,
and maybe I wasn't looking.
I wasn't looking for the flaws in the first one
because I was just like, holy shit, what is this?
I just feel like some of this is off a little bit,
but I'm still going to watch the show, and I still really like it.
It's just a little different.
That's interesting that you say that. People are comparing it to the first season of game of thrones a
lot on Twitter right now.
And I wasn't like really on the watch of his,
this season better than season one of game of thrones until this week.
Now we're six episodes in,
we're more than halfway there.
And I'm like,
all right,
now I'm on the watch.
I'm not saying it is yet.
Season's got to be over first,
but the thing before you do that, go back.
The other day I watched like three episodes in a row randomly of season one.
Early, like Khaleesi trying to become, Danny trying to become Khaleesi and shit.
Those days.
I think we forget how fucking fire Game of Thrones was.
It was like really.
It was.
I felt like it took like a season to heat up though.
Like as soon as Ned Stark died,
I was like,
okay,
we're in.
You're yes,
you're right.
But if you,
because there was so much to get to know names and houses and the whole
universe and shit,
that's what a lot of season one was.
But now if you,
once you,
once you go,
I've never really gone back.
Once you go back and watch it and you have all the knowledge,
it's really fucking well done.
Watching, like, little Arya Stark again and, like, the way it all unfolded,
like, the bar is very, very high.
I also, I mean, it's only natural.
I do it all the time when we're talking on the show,
comparing characters and storylines.
I don't think it necessarily needs to be done that way though to decide whether you like it or not means that
it's as good as game of thrones or not i think you can draw the comparisons but i agree i i don't
know about the whole season because again doing the time jump is kind of like you can't really
dig into too much if it's just like every other week we we jump a decade but this episode standalone
i thought was like one of the best out of any either season either i don't think we we jump a decade but this episode standalone i thought was like one of the best
out of any either season either i don't think we've had a single episode that i haven't been
like thrilled to talk about we haven't had after every episode i'm like holy shit i can't wait to
do a show about there has not been a dud in my mind yet and i was i was if you listen to last
season the first season of game of stools which is the last season of Game of Thrones, I was very quick to point out if episodes stink.
I have not felt that yet and certainly not going to start with this episode.
This shit was fire.
It's funny you say that.
I was just going to say in the post show, they're like, yeah, you know,
we had two characters die by fire tonight.
And I go, holy shit, we did not say it like that.
It's crazy.
We just lost two kind
of big characters just burned to death casual and no dave don't forget about the goat rest
in peace to the goat where's the goat all right it was that was great that was to me like best
episode of the season so far um and like also now the ball is fucking rolling. Like now it's like, it's all one storyline.
Basically.
It's all just like one, uh, thrown kind of situation, but now it's like, everything's
popping off.
And I'm going to get ahead of this now as the team Damon guy on this podcast, me and
my boy, Nikki Hammy over there.
He was, he was kind of soft this episode, but that's what always happens when the dude
goes soft and he's kind of like happy episode, but that's what always happens when the dude goes soft
and he's kind of like happy in his own little world.
And then it's like our boy Omar, right, Trent?
When he was in that other country
and then shit goes wrong back at home.
This guy's coming back with a fury.
Team Damon, we're down now.
Don't hold your heads low because we are coming back hot.
I'm talking Jakar is hot.
Next episode, I'm calling it right now.
It's every liam
neeson denzel washington motherfucking don't turn me into the old me movie like
damon is gonna come back and he's gonna be a problem an absolute problem gonna be all horned
up around rainier he's like i don't have a wife again oh shit and he's like the wife killer at
this point he's over two in like the last two episodes like the widow maker let's call him the
widow maker widow or wait no no no it's the opposite though because he kills them he's the at this point. He's 0 for 2 in the last two episodes. The Widowmaker. Let's call him the Widowmaker.
Wait, no, no, no. It's the opposite, though, because he kills them. He's the Widower. It doesn't work.
He's the Widowermaker. He's the
Bad Luck Chuck. The Wifeslayer. I called him the
Wifeslayer. The Wifeslayer. That works.
Because technically, he put the baby in her
that ended up killing her, right? So he literally
is 2 for 2 right now.
I gotta ask this just because
I don't want to be uncouth
about it but i can see the potential here can we use the kid jerking off for meme purposes
yeah well how old is the actor well no he's got to be of age you wouldn't show his butt if he was
a kid right yeah that's true i feel like he's got to be it was weird he kind of looked like
mike from stranger things i thought yes like if you Mike from Stranger Things in a Targaryen wig.
Or a blonde Robbie Fox without his glasses on.
Bro, you do look like him.
You do look like him.
I mean, we still use the – I mean, it's different.
Tomlin jumping off the fucking – out of the window.
I guess it's different.
Rob, go to your window real quick.
I want to see how much you guys...
If you take a picture of your cheeks in front of your window,
you'll be goaded, dude.
Forever.
If Bobby Fox goes...
Go check Twitter.
Go check Twitter.
Somebody like Mario...
Oh, it's gifed already?
Mario already cut you out, put you in the window with you going like that.
Okay. Mario. I texted it to you guys shout out that's that's that's amazing i mean this show truly
produces some amazing clips gifs and photos for my family to hit me up midweek about and be like
oh what are you guys doing at work now this This seems interesting and fun. You having fun?
Yeah, I'm having fun.
What did the – I have to ask just because you brought it up.
Trent, what was your parents' reaction to the whole W fucking fiasco?
I haven't heard from them.
I haven't heard a word from them.
They're ashamed.
Well, my parents have a strange relationship with my internet content.
Sometimes they don't see – they might not see it for six months.
I'll get a text in January. They're like, what happened with George W. Bush?
No, I really, they just probably haven't seen it yet.
Or they're ashamed and they just are never going to talk to me ever again.
I don't know.
It's a good question.
That's a coin flip.
That's the barstool difference, baby.
It's like you never know if your parents have seen it or they're so ashamed of you,
they never want to speak to you again.
We've all lived that life before.
It's so true.
You really did pull the fool may once full may twice you know so many people said that to me it's so goddamn funny yeah that's an all-time clip still very
funny to this day all right thank you to everyone uh real quick one thing that the high council
pointed out in the chat uh the bees that they were wearing, apparently the guy that was falling asleep at the
small council meeting is like Lord
Beesbury. So this is just Laris
cutting those guys' tongues out,
slapping bees on them, having
them kill everyone, and being like
the bee guy sent them.
I mean, that would be... The old guy.
That would be... Abe Simpson.
Yes, Abe Simpson. He's going to
pin it on the bees guy?
I think that was just his thing.
He's like, all right, you got to wear these, go kill my family.
So that way if they get caught, it's like they're wearing the sigil of this guy and they can't talk.
But that's what I'm saying.
It would be a little on the nose if you sent a whole team of tongueless assassins to burn people and then they just wore your fucking symbol.
No, I think it's the perfect plan with this Abe Simpson guy.
I think you bring him in, he goes,
Brendan Dassey in two seconds.
And he's like, yeah, I did it.
Of course I did it.
You're like, wait a minute, really?
Did you?
Really?
For sure?
Yeah.
I was thinking like Hank, when Hank was like,
I might have ordered the Pirate's Porn.
He's like, I'm 99% sure it wasn't me.
What's that 1%?
That's the director of content here at Barstool now.
