Hello, and welcome to My Mom's Basement, presented by 3C and Barstool Sports. I am your host,
Robbie Fox. With me is my co-host, Clem, and we are back for another Last of Us edition of
My Mom's Basement. It's The Last of Us Episode 6, I i believe and we don't really have much else to
talk about other than the last of us this week i feel like the first five weeks of the show we
pretty much had like a movie or a big news item to pair with it this week it's going to be basically
just the last of us how are we doing clem doing good doing good yeah this is it but then next
week i believe mando starts so we'll be having like Mando. Two weeks, I think.
March 1st.
Isn't that next week?
Next week, we'll have a week in between.
Because it's February 23rd as we record this.
Oh, wait.
No, you're right.
It's next week.
Because there's only 28 days in February.
I forgot about that.
Holy shit.
Next week, we're going to have Mando.
Clem, we're within a week of mando season three i'm doing the cat you know the cat video oh yeah
holy shit you just saw my mind break on the podcast i was like no dude it's february 23rd
there's at least seven days till oh my god bob which month has 28 days in it february all of them oh god that's an old
joke that's a good dad joke did you get that from the book in the last of us yeah i got that from
the um he actually referenced the author joel references the author he says the joel earlier
you're no whatever the guy is and i was like ah i like how we're bringing it back there uh so yeah
the last of us we have this going on now.
But then Mando is going to be back on Lives Weekly.
Pedro Pascal is having himself a fucking day because he's, you know, just leading two kids, two fucking very important children across the universe far, far away from each other.
And it's going to be a hell of a time for The Basement.
And then at some point, I guess, Last of Us.
I'm trying to think.
Will The Last of Us.
Oh, no.
Guardians is May.
So we'll be good by Guardians.
But God knows what other nerd shit will be popping up then.
So we did talk about this.
I don't know if we'll actually do it.
But I texted you.
I said, hey, man, The Last of Us has really taken off to this level.
I don't think either of us saw.
You, credit, were much more on it than I was.
And I was like do
we want to try to record these sooner so then like on a monday or tuesday we can release them
and then maybe we'll do youtube last of us we'll do the mando recap at some point and then maybe
we'll pair mando and the last of us recap on the audio and then we'll also have obviously mando on
the youtube as well and this way they could both kind of have their own little uh youtubes there since it's two massive franchises as it turns out i didn't see
that coming with the last of us this quickly it is clearly the number one show like i'd say
currently airing on tv in terms of just in our little universe right people talking about it
exactly every time i go into the office i feel like a new person comes up to me and says oh like
what do you think about The Last of Us?
Like, are you watching and everything?
So, yeah, I think we might follow that.
We might do Last of Us recaps on YouTube.
You'll get like the 30 minute full thing that we do on the podcast earlier, though.
And then after Mando, we'll have that in a separate video.
But like you said, on the podcast, it'll all be the same feed.
So if you're just listening on the podcast, you want all the content, you're going to get all the content but if you subscribe to the youtube channel you
might get it a little bit sooner so make sure you subscribe on youtube make sure you like this video
we're telling people early what are we three minutes into this we're telling us right up at
the front we're getting better there's many reasons why the mom's basement doesn't have
millions and millions of views and subscribers i'm just going to say the number one reason is that we always say it at the end of the podcast though.
And it's got to be the number one. Absolutely. This week's edition of my mom's basement is
brought to you by three G of all the things in life. One of the best has to be getting high
whenever you want, wherever you want without the paranoia of consuming some sketchy stuff, right?
What's the best way to do that with three 3Chi, of course. 3Chi has the
highest quality cannabis products from their delicious Delta 9 edibles and their industry
leading Delta 8 products to their new line of Delta 9 O vapes and everything in between.
I love all this stuff, the vapes, the cereal treats, the cookies, the brownies, the gummies,
the cereal bars, all of it. I don't even know if I mentioned this. Did I mention the cereal bars
twice? I'll mention them three times because they're that damn good when you buy threachi you
know you're getting the highest quality in purity taste and that craveability potent buzz every
single time because all of these products are formulated by a biochemist made in the usa with
usa grown hemp when i say biochemist every time i think I've said it before, I think of a Bruce Banner type scientist, engineer,
putting like drops into test tubes,
making the purest, most amazing, greatest tasting cannabis products on the market.

Something that we should mention before we get into The Last of Us is that the Disney trip is booked.
We have our tickets.
We have the VIP thing worked out.
We have our plane tickets.
The whole schedule's worked out.
We got reservations.
We're going to Disney with the boss, Dave Portnoyoy with ken jack and jeff d lo the lights camera bar
still boys we can't wear costumes we figured that out we were planning out costumes you friggin
ordered one you got a baby yoda costume yourself i was gonna go luke in x-wing gear if you were
curious dave was gonna go full mando which that would have been hysterical to see um i forget what
jeff was gonna do jeff thought about just doing george lucas he said he was like i might just which that would have been hysterical to see. I forget what Jeff was going to do.
Jeff thought about just doing George Lucas, he said.
He was like, I might just dress up as George Lucas.
And then Ken Jack was going to do Han Solo? It was either Han Solo.
He was going to do Obi-Wan in the Clone Wars armor, I think.
Which is just like a very Ken Jack pick where I was like,
this guy is going deep cuts, but now we're getting shirts made. We're getting the cheesy shirts made. which is just like a very Ken Jack pick where I was like, this,
this guy is going deep cuts, but now we're getting shirts made.
We're getting the cheesy shirts made.
So we're getting the next best thing there. And I can't wait.
We got our magic bands. I got the baby Yoda magic band.
It has the little blue macaroons on it. I'm just so excited for this trip.
I don't know if I've ever been more excited for a Barstool related trip.
It's going to be easy in easy out very
quick but thanks shout out dave portnoy for missing like the acres upon acres of star wars land that
allows us to go i still can't believe it's happening but i mean like you said everything's
booked hotel flights tickets yada yada yada so it's gonna be a blast i i me and dave me being a
giant baby yoda and then dave being the mand Mandalorian who's not as tall as the Baby Yoda,
would have been a funny visual.
But unfortunately, I said this from the jump, by the way.
I was like, guys, you can't dress up in Disney.
I'm like, oh, no, I think as long as it's not this or that.
And I'm like, guys, if you watch a Disney video
and there's not 1,000 people dressed up in every single turn,
you can't dress up because people like you think
disney adults the craziest of the crazies and i say that from the from like a nice part of my heart
they would be dressing up as fucking goofy or you're talking deep cuts we'd have fucking like
steamboat willie people dressing up like that motherfucker whistling along so uh i i don't think
uh that i knew that wasn't gonna be the case i'm sure the video i'm sure that and i we also saw our vip tour guide and i'm telling you i'm telling you right now dave and that kid are going to make
content magic i can just i just probably some pair yeah yeah this is gonna be this is gonna
be some trip for all of us i can't wait and i think we're gonna try to do a universal thing
in there too we're gonna try to make some content universal see springfield maybe so we'll see about that as well world's biggest mcdonald's
in orlando yes the world's biggest mcdonald's we're going to hit that up see what that's all
about maybe they got the snack wrap there we could go investigate are you on are you on my
side with this i am eddie texted me as well because i saw eddie's reaction if you're not
familiar the dog walked at a draft this week where they said laws we would make.
And Eddie, for his first pick, drafted bringing the snack wrap back to McDonald's.
And he was castrated for this.
People said, Eddie, this is the worst pick in dog walk history.
His other council members basically were the ones that said this.
So he stormed out of the room.
He said, morons, morons. You know, he throws the thing he runs out and i texted him i'm an ad fan i'm an ad head
i said ed i've never seen that tone out of you what's going on are you okay and he said what
he just texted me back he said what is the number one requested fast food item to be brought back
and i said snack wraps and he said said, thank you. And he kind
of told me the whole thing. I agree with that. The snack wraps are one of the greatest things ever.
I used to do a little jujitsu class, go to McDonald's, two snack wraps. I felt like I was
Rocky eating eggs when I was doing that. It's beautiful. Wraps in general with fast food
makes you feel not as bad about yourself. And I always call the snack wrap, the fat man's
compromise where it's like, I'll have a couple of snack wraps, or if I just want
like a little something and maybe a little fries or whatever, if you want to do the grilled chicken,
if you were feeling a little crazy, then you mix up the dressings, honey, mustard ranch.
I love the snack wrap was, and I said this in the moment, I was like, I love the snack wrap.
It's not one of those things that the heart grows fonder when it's gone. I've loved the snack wrap
from day one. And I, and people like people like she i know chief was very much like
well mcdonald's though they don't want to make money so that's why it's like i honestly think
it's a production issue i think it just cost them too much and then to like then sell it
didn't really make sense so i got facetime by chief too and they they tweeted out the video
and i was there like clet and it was like clem
has people been asking for the snack wrap i said the snack wrap i believe is the number one
most requested snack wrap by uh fast food item by far and every time someone asks for it you just
see the tweets go viral i know jerry i think marty has had a couple of takes on that and the thing
about it is the root of this problem is that the chicken selects are so goddamn
good you could almost say bring back the chicken selects and then we can bring back the snack wrap
because we just have to figure out a you know cheap wrap supplier and we can make it all done
but the chicken selects you want i could get on a fucking soapbox we won't even get to the last of
us i'll talk about the chicken selects for an hour straight they were perfection they were my they
were my go-to item when i would go to mcdonald's and i am absolutely heartbroken my heart is like
thank god or else he'd literally be broken in my chest right now if i still had chicken selects to
eat just an absolute home run hit by mcdonald's and i just tell myself it was just too expensive
it was just not meant to be were you a chicken select guy as well oh my god the biggest chicken
select guy chicken selects over mcnuggets and i love m The biggest chicken select guy, chicken selects over McNuggets.
And I love McNuggets.
I do,
but chicken selects in a little barbecue sauce for McDonald's.
There's nothing better than that.
And I don't mean to make you jealous,
but I did get them when I went to London,
they had them on the menu.
Oh,
you dog,
you,
you dog.
God damn.
I guess we have to figure out,
we have to figure out a way to get Dave to fly us to London.
Next.
That's the next stop.
Or this giant McDonald's.
Maybe they have like,
it's like all the, the OG items that never went away so yeah uh two ed heads who were full
firmly on eddie's side and i was trying to think of what the other item that people want there's a
bunch i'm still mad that potato wedges got taken away from kfc and i said that at the moment i was
like what the fuck we're taking away the potato wedges that was the one thing that differentiated
kfc's a staple yeah it was a staple and if i like you can get fries from all the
different places you're getting the wedges sometimes that was the thing that would make
you go to kfc so bummed about that let me say this though their fries are good yeah they're
not the potato wedges but they're pretty good they're pretty good and moving to the wraps
wendy's has at least had the spicy chicken wrap.
It was another staple of mine.
COVID took that motherfucker away.
It must be the wraps that make it so expensive
because we're 0 for 2 on these things.
It's devastating.
So yeah, we stand firmly behind you right here right now.
The basement boys stand with that.
Since our last podcast,
all the Ant-Man reviews came out
and all of our fans and
listeners saw ant-man all the marvel fans saw it i should say no spoilers we won't be spoiling no
spoilers yeah we won't spoil it in this episode but there was a lot of a lot of fallout ant-man
is now the lowest reviewed mcu movie along with the eternals i think they're both tied at 47
and a lot of people are on the other side of the fence a lot of people say i loved it
like a lot we got a lot of tweets from people that were like i think you guys were a little
off base on this one i thought ant-man was amazing your expectations were probably what
ruined it for you i agree with that i think ant-man is nowhere near the worst movie marvel
has ever made i put it way above like the original thor thor. Like there's plenty of movies that are, are less enjoyable
than Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumania. I think they ruined our expectations with the civil war
quote, with the quotes about the epic sci-fi war film as important to the MCU as an Avengers.
When they, when you say stuff like that, I expect this to be an Avengers level movie. And I think
we said that in our review, it just didn't feel like that next big oh my god this is civil war this is avengers this is you
know it just felt like ant-man and the wasp quantumania which was fine but we wanted it to be
a home run yeah i also think that they made a better movie in the trailer than they did for
the movie right and i've heard a lot of people say that.
And I think we kind of fell in between where 48% or whatever it is for the
critics.
I think that's too low.
And I think 84 with the audience is for me,
it was too high.
I was somewhere in the middle for like 68 or so where it's like,
you give us the Ant-Man,
you give us an Ant-Man movie,
just like the first two,
I would have been fine with it.
You give us an Epic, like an Avengers or a civil war, heavy, you give us an Ant-Man movie, just like the first two, I would have been fine with it. You give us an epic, like an Avengers or a Civil War heavy, you know, movie with a bunch of
big parts. I'm fine with that too. They kind of gave us a half measure of both where it had a
couple Ant-Man ha-has. It had some moments that you felt were big, going to be bigger down the
road, but you never quite got the middle uh you never quite blended them and again there
was like a chunk of the movie i won't give it away a chunk of the movie that i'm like i could
have done well without a lot of it you kind of stretched out another part of the movie a little
more which i feel like we said with uh love and thunder it was like give us more gore more gore
yeah and less kind of the nonsense and i think it would have been good but whatever it is what it is
and i'm i'm happy it isn't just like a pure divisive movie where people like it's the greatest ever
or the i wasn't ready for another last jedi i wasn't ready for the mcu's last jedi to come out
definitely better than thor 2 better than a bunch of other other movies um when we recorded it we
were a little bummed but i think i i compared it to burger king uh the new french fries and you
compared it to the waffle sandwich which is both something we would eat.
We wouldn't just throw it in the garbage, but it's just something that we wanted a little more from in terms of both.
Yeah.
And I'll go see it again.
I will.
My girlfriend hasn't seen it yet, so I want to bring her to see it.
And I'll kind of be able to go in with a different mindset of like, don't expect this, this, this, and this.
I know what to expect going in just enjoy it
as what it is so i'm excited to see it again and kind of go in with that new perspective
yeah i think that's one way to go about it is watching it again uh pretty fresh and then there
is a chance down the road i always i heard a lot of comparisons it could be like age of ultron where
when you watch it after everything pans out you're're like, oh, this guy. Because I watched Age of Ultron, I think it was around WandaVision, when we watched WandaVision.
And I was like, oh, wow, this was a lot better than I remember.
So I'll be interested to see how it all pans out.
That movie has aged well.
Now let's get into The Last of Us.
Before we do, we got to shout out one of our sponsors, one of our favorite sponsors, HelloFresh.
Remember those New Year's goals you promised yourself you'd stick to
hello fresh is here to help you eat better by delivering fresh ingredients and easy recipes

january with sticking to practicing and all that stuff. February, I started slacking a little bit.
I got to get back on it.
And HelloFresh can help me with that.

We go to our hotel room and make a HelloFresh meal together. Can you imagine? Oh, that would
be so good. Us trying to make a meal with Dave. HelloFresh, if you got a few extra Gs in the bank
account, send it to Dave Portnoy and convince him to do
a meal with us the basement boys and the lights camera barstool boys i picture just jeff in a
chef hat like a full you know jeff d low like swedish chef outfit oh i mean jeff d low would
be in control of the kitchen he'd be the gordon ramsay of all of us he put dave in his place i
bet too where's it come i've seen jeff at the dozen the live shows he gets everyone in order he's like great at that kind of stuff so having that would
be absolutely i mean hello fresh we have to do this now we have to get hello fresh come on send

They were like,
fuck it.
Just do Fox.
Just remember it's one X though.
It's not like Jamie Fox one X can't beat the Fox.
That's easy enough.
And my favorite part about hello fresh is you can hit up like a lot of
different,
like ethnic cuisines,
like the soft sea pork burrito bowls.
I was looking at that.
Some enchiladas,
like you can get some asian
dishes obviously have your american you kind of just everything but then like i always say you
don't have to get the ingredients where it's like if i i need this for this mexican dish or whatever
this spice that i don't usually use and then i have a bunch of it just laying around they give
you just the right amount portions for everything so i gotta see portland on this thing i just got
there you go hello fresh now let's get into the last of us i gotta see portman on this thing i just gotta see there
you go hello fresh now let's get into the last of us i know at the beginning of this episode we were
like all we're talking about is the last of us today and i'm sure some people out there are like
it's fucking 20 minutes into the podcast you haven't gotten to joel and ellie we're getting
to it now and i'm trying to put the time stamps in the little description and everything so
hopefully that's made it an easier watching
or listening experience for people you could skip around if you want to the last of us starts off
this week with a fucking flashback to the ending of last week why did they live that
immediately it was like oh man we gotta watch this again it wasn't even like a last week on
they did that they did the last week on the last of us they showed us all that and then they were like just to just a reminder henry killed his brother we were like oh
fuck what if they just do that every week where they're like oh yeah by the way remember that
those two brothers that i had that great story and they helped each other and they were so great
and then they both died from you know the older brother's bullet yeah that just happened this is where you're
welcome back to the last of us motherfuckers and you guys are going to keep tuning in because it
is that damn good i was mad at you all over again bob i was mad i know it's like they're sending us
through like the ptsd flashbacks through the show they're just going to say reminder this traumatic
event happened reminder oh remember the car that you liked oh that crashed
oh by the way test remember her she got bit like they're just every week gonna hammer home these i
mean they mentioned test this week again yeah joel was just like yeah she's fine which i think he did
in the game to bill i think we learned that from our guy heavy spoilers where bill when he's like
alive in the game and they meet up he's like like, oh, how's Tess? And he just pretends like everything's all good
because he don't want to talk about it.
He's closed off.
Our boy Joel is burying a lot deep inside.
He's bottling it all up.
Not exactly the healthiest thing as we're going to see later on.
It's kind of fucked up.
But at this point, it's like if you guys are going to keep torturing us,
just go Uncle Ben with it.
Just let me see these fuckers die every single week just replay the bill and frank with the window
open show tess show god i mean we even got um sarah like just show them all just break my goddamn
heart i had my buddy my buddy uh jamie i hit him up and i was like dude you gotta watch last of us
and he just texted me um like three days later on episode five right now and he's like it's the kids that really
get me it's clem like just seeing all these and i'm like oh yeah like i'm thinking of what's his
name not henry the younger brother sam sam i'm like oh yeah sam that's sad and like oh wait no
sarah and then i'm just going through and then obviously the kid that they burn in the beginning
i'm like man yeah this show is really fucked up i should probably stop recommending it to people
it's so fucked up.
You said go follow Uncle Ben.
I want to see like a Joel nightmare where he's like walking out of the movie theater with his parents.
And then he looks up and it's Bill and Frank.
And one of them's wearing pearls and they have a full Bruce Wayne moment.
Yes.
So winters must be just a hundred times worse now.
Huh?
That is something I noted right away.
They meet this old couple who's kind of adorable.
If, if I could use that word. Yes. And the way that they're just,
are we not using adorable? Is that a cancellation word?
No, it's not a cancellation. I'm just like,
I don't know if it's like a mean thing to call old people,
not old people you could call adorable. Right.
Yeah, I think so. Old people probably call you worse.
So you can call them kind of whatever you want.
Someone calls me adorable. I'm not, I'm not So you can call them kind of whatever you want. Someone calls me adorable.
I'm not offended, but I'm kind of like adorable.
Like what?
It's like if you call someone adorable, they either have to be really old or really young.
There's really no in between, right?
Babies or so many wrinkles you can't see their eyes.
When I call AJ adorable, he's like, I'm a big boy.
I'm not adorable.
And it's like, all right, all right.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
So yeah, there is a thing.
These old people were fucking awesome too they had great chemistry and i was reading i think they were in northern exposure together or something like that
so i didn't know that that would make sense because they were great and like you said
that's snow you just see the snow and i'm just like oh fuck and i'm thinking of oregon trail
at this point you're going cross country and you never
like when they tell you it's rough weather or you get lose five days for a snowstorm you're like oh
that sucks you hit the you know return button and you keep going in real life that must have been a
motherfucker where you're just like up we're in the rockies now in the dead of winter they really
should have made the oregon trail a lot harder because think about like i wake
up in the morning and like the heat hasn't kicked all the way on in like the living room and it's 62
i'm like oh god almighty these guys are just outside in a fucking covered wagon and they're
going through it so man shout out to joel and ellie this is tough times here tough i got the
reynards hands imagine mia in the in the apocalypse the winter would kill me before the clickers if
they were like this kid here has um like theote in his blood, but we have to take him cross-country in the cold, they'd just put a bullet in here and be like, nope, we have to find another person.
This guy ain't going to make it.
His little fingies are going to freeze off.
They were like, he fucking complains about his fingers on his toes every two seconds.
This guy's a pussy.
He plays the bass.
How the fuck does he have bad fingers?
Which, funny enough, we did a secret pop punk shoot yesterday that was in the cold, outdoor.
And I'm wearing a band-aid on my wrist because I couldn't feel my fingers.
So I was just trying to strum to make it look like I was hitting the bass in the video.
And I fucking cut my wrist on the bass doing that.
So I can't even film a pop punk video in the cold and it's not even
snowing it's not when i say cold it was like 40 degrees i could not survive a last of us winter
and another thing that i couldn't do i hated i hated clem seeing the dead rabbit on ellie's
backpack just dangling down i couldn't kill rabbits and just put them on my backpack like
that they talk about killing a deer later on and they're like, could you kill a deer? I tried to rationalize it in my brain.
I love deer. I see them at my mom's all the time. I think they're adorable. So I always think I
could never kill a deer. If it was life or death, could I kill a deer? Maybe. Could I dress a deer
though? Do the dressing where you rip it apart the guts no fuck no i couldn't do that so
i mean this episode more than any other episode made me think i couldn't survive in this world
and it had nothing to do with the zombies or the infection yeah if the uh cold little fingers
aren't going to kill her bob our guy bob fox hunger is because he's not going to be able to
kill any of the animals that need to keep him alive i guess you just start eating a lot of
berries or whatever until you run out of them or camp i'm allergic to fruit that's right bob you're
dead you are so fucking dead you're not even making deadest yeah even if you had the antidote
your blood you're not living past like the age of six at this point honestly i'm probably my luck
i'm probably like the person the plane crashes into when the night of the outbreak which take
me at that point you know i don't want to see
this horror world and uh ellie made a great point too and she's like why do they call it dressing
when it should be the undressing like that's actually a very good i agree also i would love
to kind of make the uh have the basin boys and girls start a push to have robbie go on barstool
outdoors and you know encounter his deepest darkest fears It's just not going to be, it's not gonna be good for that brand.
Like Bob, just puking his guts out and crying in the corner.
I don't think anyone wins in that video.
He's like about to cry right now.
It looks like it's not, this is going to sound really bad to any animal lovers or PETA members
out there.
I draw the line at adorable and I find deers adorable, right?
If it was like a warthog or something
maybe i could shoot it maybe i don't think i'm not even a gun guy maybe i would want to go like
a crossbow or a bow and arrow like hawkeye or katniss i i could i can't kill something that
looks adorable i when we had pellet guns uh in like my old neighborhood everyone kind of got
pellet guns around the same time you know the bad. And I hung out with a couple of kids that were a little older.
So kind of get advanced to that world a little young.
And I, sensitive soul, always have been.
And I think the closest I came was to almost shooting a squirrel.
Like I had them lined up.
And I hate squirrels.
Like you live in the suburbs, there's always new shit.
And I was like looking at them.
And I like kind of like moved on purpose.
Like my brain made me miss.
I could never, I was a bunny. Like I used to have little bunnies in my parents' yard. I just kind of like moved on purpose. Like my brain made me miss. I could never, I was a bunny.
Like I used to have little bunnies in my parents' yard.
I just kind of go out, look at them.
Deer, constantly Clem gets visited by like the same group of deer every single day, basically.
However, I've seen him.
No, I'll throw like bread outside when the bread's like no longer good. Or we have like day old bagels.
I'll throw them outside to help feed maybe them or the squirrels or whatever.
However, wifey Clem hit a deer, totaled our car about three or four years ago.
My father-in-law totaled his car with a deer.
There's just been a lot of deer related fuck ups and there's nothing you could do.
They don't know what they're doing.
But at this point, like I think I have enough.
They've cost me enough heartache and literal dollars that I think I could kill a deer.
You could take a couple of them back.
I'll take care of it, Bob.
If there is a zombie apocalypse, I'll be the guy to, I'll be the bill to your Frank.
I'll kill the deer.
I'll fucking gut them.
I will not be easy to do it.
I'll be queasy the entire time.
But you just figure out a way to start that fire up.
Keep those hands warm.
And I'll just do all the grunt work.
I can't promise you about the paired wines, though. I don't know any of them.
We'd need large to stick around to do that, or we're just going to drink some sort of soda or Arizona.
I would be so good at that, yeah.
I said that Bill was large.
He was like a rough-and-tumble large where he's fucking pairing rabbit, which, right?
That was rabbit and the wine, right?
So that's our boy.
That rabbit's kind of
just the chicken of this new world maybe just yeah it's very common thing for everyone to eat
everything i had a lucky rabbit's hook like growing up i got it at like some general store
and i did love the lucky rabbit so i never really put the two together it's like when you find out
when you're like oh we're eating chicken and you're like oh wait that's a chicken my daughter
found that out a few years ago it was one of the funniest things
and she's like oh but these chicken nuggets are real good and just throws it right back in
like right after she watches chicken run she's like what which i loved i loved chicken run growing
up uh i thought that it was cool that joel gave ellie a sip of his drink just a cool dad move
classic kind of a trope at this point but not not used in an over-the-top way.
She was just like, can I have that?
Boom.
Here's a sip.
Better to learn with me than learn on your own.
And granted, it's not really going to happen in a world like that as much.
But I think large-
Yeah, it's like the fucking apocalypse, too.
Like, come on.
Give her a sip, you know?
By the time you're like seven years old
that's like the new 21 is seven yeah in that yeah you've seen some shit you've probably killed at
that point if you could kill someone else you could have a swig of whiskey or whatever it
might have been so yeah that's fine i think large he did that with his kids like he'll give him a
beer i think he went he like took his kid to a gas station they got a vape they each vaped and
he's like all right you've done it now because you don't want to just throw them into that new world and then they go to college
and it's like all right fucking i'm in the candy store you got to know which candies are good bad
when you're going to get the you got to have that tummy ache when you've eaten too much candy right
or else you're going to really uh really have a problem so yeah mama fox did that with me when i
was uh when i was 18 i graduated high school and there was a 4th of July party that summer.
So it was already 18.
I had not really gone to like parties in high school.
Never asked.
I was,
I was not interested,
whatever.
I want to just go and blog about MMA and shit.
So I said to my mom,
I was like,
mom,
I think I want to go to this 4th of July party.
Just graduated.
All my friends invited me.
They're all going to be there.
And I think I want to have a beer.
And she was like,
Oh,
okay.
She was like, I'm down with that. Like like that's a very responsible way to go about it you're not talking to the mama fox voice yeah she was she was like rob i respect that very
responsible my sister and my now brother-in-law from across the room heard this and they were
like you're not gonna drink with us for the first time. They were like, we love you. We want
to drink with you. And I was like, all right, like, all right. I wasn't really like interested
in like drinking, getting drunk. They were like, you just, your first sip of alcohol has to be
with family. And I was like, okay, the only piece of alcohol, the only bottle of alcohol we had in
the house was tequila Clem. So we did tequila shots, me, my mom, my my sister my now brother-in-law and yeah i don't really drink
now and i wonder if it's because of that that was a wise move by your mom for doing that because
i'll tell you i can't even smell tequila again i think i've told the story where there's like
the last day of third grade there was a bottle of tequila just laying around somewhere i picked
it up swigged it as a joke trying to be mr funny guy and i can't even smell it and even so i always think tequila
out of those shot lickers is by far the strongest most you up so it wasn't cold it was
yeah it was it was bad now the only thing i could drink is high noon shout out high noon shout out
high noon um the infected smelling dog that runs up on
them is very cool so while they're in the snow they get run up on by a bunch of people on horses
and then they're like this dog will smell you if if you got any infected on you the fact that you
could train a dog to do that in this world i thought was awesome and it played for such a good
scene in that the tension when the dog walks up to ellie and starts sniffing
her was so good you could cut it with a knife where you're like is it gonna smell infected on
her she kind of is infected but she's not so is it it doesn't and it just starts like sniffing her
and loving her and licking her and it's like ah dogs are the fucking best dogs are the best and i
remember the dog in the first episode when he's kind of creeped out by
because they can like sense the um i forgot the word for the actual fungus or whatever
so it just fucked me up and i'm when they're talking about river of death and we're you know
sounds like it's a goddamn oh you're going out west you're basically gonna die there's no way
you know people go out they never come back kind of shit so that fucked me up and our girl ellie
really is leveling up in the outdoors. I'm very proud of her.
She's getting better at what she's done.
And when Joel looks at her and she's about to ask about the dam,
he goes,
don't ask.
Cause I don't know.
I don't know how dams work.
And I'm so happy.
That is a very relatable thing that they wrote into the script.
Cause nobody fucking knows how goddamn dams work.
So shout out to them for doing that.
And that cowboy crew,
boy,
I would love to be in a
fucking cowboy crew i've come to the realization decades ago i'm not nearly man enough but man
cowboy they made that crew look fucking awesome didn't it yeah yeah it looked like red dead
redemption kind of like exactly when you roll up like that my brother by the way might be the
biggest red dead redemption guy in the world he just texted me he hundred percented red dead redemption 2 wow hundred percent that's like the biggest game out there
there has been a few things lately that uh that mike fox has kind of let me down with the road
trip being one of them in terms of the movie i'm gonna this is gonna this is an hour to his heart
i got red dead i played it i like had a little bit of fun and i just caught it never
got it never permeated my brain like uh grand theft auto did i never played the first one so
the second one came out it was this massive event a few years ago and even during a goddamn pandemic
a couple times i looked i was like oh yeah i got red dead too i could not really in the mood for
it so are you a big western guy when it comes to movies no i am most certainly not see
that's where you and my brother differ my brother's the biggest western guy does he like back to the
future three i don't think so no that's the old he's also a harsh critic with movies so it's like
he's he's a harsh critic in that i assume he'll just dislike the movie but if he likes it you
know it's fucking good which is like almost the opposite of me
we're almost the opposite in that i feel like if i dislike a movie you know it's bad
yeah yeah yeah that's true if robbie hasn't cried enjoy watching your movie it's just so beautiful
that means it's really bad great brother reunion when joel and tommy reunite but i couldn't get
past the fact that tomm't tell Joe about this place.
And I know they have the big conversation about it later.
We just talked about my brother, your guy with a brother as well.
If you're in this place, this community, gated community where they say we're very secretive,
you can't tell anyone.
I don't care what they tell you.
You have to tell your brother who you know is still out there and alive.
And I would tell my brother, I don't know what my excuse would be.
You would have to come up with an excuse for the town to be like, oh, he found us.
I would just say like he knew I was going out west coincidence and fucking deny it to the grave.
But how do you not tell your brother?
Yeah, I mean, they don't have radio.
So I'm trying to think how he would be able to like float it out there that he's there.
Go back.
Go like leave and go back. Leave and go back i would go back hey mike if you're listening pal he raised a good younger brother right here i mean he didn't see road trip i gotta go to the
ends of the earth to reunite with my brother if it was the apocalypse that would be like the only
person i would want to see my family yeah yeah i mean did your first shot with with your family right that's a big moment so you want to keep doing shots in this
very it felt like a fort from i'm gonna again reference oregon trail beat see we're gonna have
like the big pillars of wood on the outside and you're just like oh man it feels good to get off
that trail for a little bit and look around so i was and it was also um a little bit of game of
thrones when like they'd go to the castles or whatever like they open the gates yeah they open the gates and i was like oh fuck yeah
and then when i when we found tommy i was like holy fuck there's tommy i was like i didn't think
we're gonna see tommy for maybe till the end of the season if not like next season and then i'm
just like oh fuck tommy's gonna die we're're going to lose Tommy by the end of this episode. I immediately
thought we were so goddamn fucked, man.
So that is a fair point about
Tommy. But
the thing is, like, Tommy
Tommy's the little brother. I do
think that makes a difference. Now, you're the little brother who
said you go across the country and get your
guy. But I do feel like some
people would say it's the big brother's
responsibilities to get the little brother.
But man, the little brother is living good.
Little brother can like take hot showers, having sex, having regular sex, it appears.
So that's the other thing.
Going all the way to fucking like Boston, a bunch of infected around.
Can't hate Tommy too much, but I definitely hear what you're saying, Bob.
Tommy's got a girl as
well maria her name is they have a conversation with her he kind of lets everyone know oh well
she is family actually he's like can we have a moment with family she is family and she is a
good conversation with ellie they have a good relationship where she gives ellie the menstrual
cup which i just feel weird even saying those oh you said the m word i would have never said i know i know i i regretted it the second it came out of my mouth gross word
i'm not gonna say it again i'm not you're not getting me i didn't have a nice conversation
i didn't know i thought it was a me neither i was like oh i had no idea what it was no idea
not even watching with the wife next to you and she told you no i watched a youtube video recapping
and i was like oh my god heavy spoilers so i learned that from my guy paul i was gonna say
it turned to my girlfriend i was like why don't you give her a cup and she's like oh you idiot
is that she's gonna give her medicine i was like oh they're doing shots yeah
i won't ask you i'll just tell you i've had to make the tampon run to the pharmacy.
And it is like reading Chinese.
I'm like, there's a hundred of these things.
I don't know which one I was supposed to do.
They're all different colors.
Yeah, exactly.
I saw someone tweet something the other day.
And they're like, my husband actually, she's like, I'm so happy we have cameras on our phone.
Because he said they were all sold out.
And you look at the thing.
And literally everything was sold out. She's's like i would have said it was bullshit because
a you have to pick it out and then b you have to go and usually pay for it now luckily we live in
a world where everything you just have it's little uh self-checkout back in the day you're looking
that dude right in the eyes you're like here's some tampons sir it was always nowadays a little
awkward you got to door dash it you got to do the uber eats grocery run don't even be
involved leave it at the door take a picture of my door and walk away i don't even want to see that
guy you know i want no communication with anyone involved in that purchase i always was like hey
i'm clearly at home with a girl that's a good thing in my opinion i'm very proud of it so
but it's but the guy's looking at you like you're not getting it in right now. I know that. It's not like buying condoms.
Fair point.
So one of my favorite parts of this episode, maybe my favorite part of this episode, was the realization that in this little community, they have the movies.
And for me, it was a self-realization where I was like, if I was in this apocalypse and I found a community,
that would be my goal.
That would be my life's purpose.
Bring the movies back to these people.
I would go to the ends of the earth to try to find popcorn,
to try to find some nachos still in the bag and then put a slate together of
movies.
Like almost your own film festival.
You're like,
this is what's out tonight and it's fucking jaws
and the next night you're like et's out tonight and you just blow people's minds every single
night the kids especially who haven't seen all the classics you show them like a hundred classics in
a row and they're like there are no bad movies all movies are amazing you know what i mean like
this would be the most fun thing in a town like this that's probably how like the wizard
of oz became the wizard he probably had some like old movies with him and he just showed the
munchkins like guys you guys have to see this shit this shit citizen kane oh my god and he's
just going through all the different things and their minds just being blown around he's a wizard
and we're not as a wizard of oz and he's like now let me go and do my magic and shit and boom
they just he just became the wizard just because yeah that is actually a pretty fucking and at this point yeah i made that movie
yeah i feel like these are my movies back back when things were okay you know i made all these
movies and they're like why is the quality different in all of them and it's like stylistic
choice made all in the same year i would definitely have like die hard be like that would be the first
movie i showed everyone like i'd probably skip Die Hard 2.
I do Die Hard 3.
Die Hard 2, I don't know if it's skippable,
but I'd show Die Hard 3 before I showed Die Hard 2.
I'm like, oh yeah, by the way, guys,
this is like the director's cut that came out after Die Hard.
Man, there's, oh, just like,
it's kind of like with Twitter, right?
Where someone will watch like Godfather for the first,
I know we don't like Godfather on the podcast.
I know that's something you don't like Godfather, I should say.
Back to the future.
I watched that for the first time as an adult.
Love it.
Watching Glennie watch Sopranos for the first time
as he's live tweeting through it, just seeing that.
That's my next show, by the way.
Just a little heads up for everybody.
That's the next show I'm binging, Sopranos.
And next movie, we're going to do Boogie Nights at some point, right?
After this. Yeah, Sopranos. And next movie, we're going to do Boogie Nights at some point, right?
After this.
Yeah, we've got to get on Boogie Nights.
Yeah, I almost watched it last night. Boogie Nights, got to get Jose back on the pod for a Kang episode.
Definitely, definitely.
All right, at this point, we get a pretty emotional argument
between Joel and Ellie over who should go on this trip.
Joel is kind of like the Mandalorian.
He's like, I've done my journey.
I've reunited you with the Jedi.
Now I'm going off on my end. he's like i've done my journey i've reunited you with the jedi now i'm going off of my and she's like come on you're the only person i feel safe with an obvious response
for a kid to have and i was on her side the whole time i was just like joel come on this is your
fucking kid now go with her much like mando i was like you're really i i love luke skywalker but
come on baby yoda is yours imagine ellie ellie pulls that out she's like, you just, you took baby Yoda wherever you want it.
And then you let him go when he was ready to go,
but not until he was ready.
He got to make the choice.
God damn it.
Joel,
what's your problem,
dude?
It's just,
you're the same person.
I saw you without your mask.
And then Joel's like,
what if,
what if I throw an R2D2 and Ellie turns into the kombucha girl?
She's like,
this is the way.
Yeah.
She's like,
all right, I'll go tommy i'll go
with tommy i fuck you hbo for bringing back the memory of sarah we're talking about you know
she's got to be careful with that too yeah you bring set that was like a pin drop moment like
you don't bring that name up that is i was gonna say like hand on the oven. That is match in a can of gasoline.
I do not put those two near each other, Ellie.
Just take it easy.
He's a nice guy.
He loves you.
But you have to be very careful because he was like, do not talk about that.
Like just shut that shit down.
And then the test stuff where he asked Tommy to take her for tests.
And I was like, God damn it.
Why are you guys bringing this all back?
However, let me say this.
Shout out to that.
It's called Jackson.
Is that the name of the community?
I think so, yeah.
Having Christmas and movies during a post-apocalyptic world
is dunking on that fungus so goddamn bad.
It's like, yeah, you know, they're winning the war,
but we got our battles and we're fucking crushing it like having christmas is fucking a plus stuff it's like that's about as
as much you could say that we're as close to normalcy as we can get is by having christmas
you have the electric you have the movies and then christmas is just the cherry on top so i
absolutely loved it some of those kids who don't know what the real world is like are kind of living
a normal life right like in that community if they're five years old if they're 10 years old out of like
everyone in that world i'd say they're probably like the top one percent five percent in terms of
that's what i want to see now i want to see last of us spin off where we see what is the top one
percent of the world like look like what is? What is the best way people are surviving this apocalypse?
Is there a mansion somewhere where there's a bunch of like billionaires just
chilling and they got,
you know,
everything they got new movies somehow.
They're on Avengers.
Like,
well,
at this point,
fuck Avengers was even out.
They're living in a world without Avengers with the MCU.
They don't even have the MCU. Did Iron Man iron man came out after that right after 03 2008 yeah
so shit they're they're fucked 03 is like you you don't even have the second yeah you don't even
have the second spider-man yet you got the first toby mcguire spider-man and you're like superheroes
are here finally and then done now i feel now i actually
feel bad for these people they had the prequels not all of them they they only made it up to uh
attack of the clones they didn't get the revenge of the sith so they had the two worst ones man
they're having a tough time so yeah fucking bob comes in with his dvds he's like here boys you
got some movies here line of the episode for me when they're
talking about contractors and chill just goes yeah everybody loved contractors that was such
a great line it was so like it was just here yeah everyone did love contractors and someone that got
his kitchen done somewhat recently and you're just like dreaming of all this shit where you
can get done but the thing about contractors everyone like i love, I love having a contractor, but then all I ever
hear about contractors is, your project's
going to be more money, and they're just going to
disappear for, like, weeks at a time.
But everyone's just fine with it. So I guess Joel
said it perfectly, and the fact that
he wanted to herd sheep,
he wanted to raise sheep, which I just love,
he wanted to be a singer. Like, you're just
getting all these little nuances of this
fucking dude, who, by the way, way like i hate to say it about our guy joel but once you kind of lay it all out
he low-key like keeps failing he's like i failed my daughter i failed tess i failed henry and sam
and uh but the fail i guess he already failed ellie in City, right? And I'm like, does Joel low-key suck?
We've been giving Joel a little too much credit.
He has a good shot.
He maybe sucks, but all our favorite heroes do, right?
John McClane, Indiana Jones.
That's the other thing I was thinking.
I would show the whole room Star Wars and then the Indiana Jones trilogy
and be like Harrison Ford was my dad back in the day you know the you know like say shit like that like just uh george lucas was
my grandpa yeah he he made the movies with his son harrison ford in them and just like confuse
people's uh timeline of history and everything you're basically bob odenkirk from uh what's the
better call saul no from uh i thought you were like you're making a new life
like jimmy mcgill well i guess you kind of are being jimmy mcgill but it's the uh the show on
netflix what's the show with uh tim netflix oh oh from i think you should leave i think you should
leave robinson yeah yeah where he's like i got the barracuda two barracudas i got triples and
it's like you're just making up all these lies it It's like, yeah, I heard support is my dad. George Lucas is my crazy uncle.
Here it is.
People at the next table are just like,
we don't care.
Um,
but obviously Joel goes off with Ellie.
Eventually he's waiting for her in the stable,
makes the right call.
Although I think Clemmer blogged it and he was right about this.
All three of them could have gone right.
If Tommy could have gone,
why isn't he going?
I was sick of the same goddamn thing. I don't't think i don't think it's like a hey we can only have two
because the numbers is a problem why why don't you just kind of just just load up so i figured
he was going to when we see joel in the stable i was like oh they're all gonna go as a team like
cool we'll see the brothers team up and get to fucking shoot some clickers but no he's staying so again like tommy seems like an all right guy not the best brother in my book and
this is the tommy slander pocket i didn't see this one coming when we started but i'll tell
you bobby maker some very good points and i'm gonna say this like a kind place however i knew
tommy was a father or a father to be because i saw weakness in his eyes
that man had weakness in his eyes that actor put the weakness in his eyes and i'll tell you it is
one of the best things where you're always like in the movies really please please don't hurt me i
have kids and the person might save your life that's probably the best part about having kids
bob probably cut it out of this podcast but i had a good uh 10 minute conversation both kids are off
for the week right now.
So I'm watching them by myself and I'm just getting fucking, they're zinging me.
They're telling me they have to watch YouTube.
And what did they say to me again?
I believe I heard AJ say, he was like, dad, not to be mean, but this is the best way to
entertain us.
And you were like, what?
And he was like, watching YouTube is the best way to entertain us.
And you were like, yeah, that's why I'm letting you do it right now but i love that he started with not
to be mean but maybe he was saying like youtube's a lot better than you entertaining us yeah is that
what he was saying hey you big monkey idiot like this is how you entertain your kids just kindly
being just roasted by your kids i can only imagine what joel went through going across the country
with like oh and she's a wise act she's a wise ass she's a wise acre whatever you want to call it
ellie is is tougher than both of my kids for sure but uh yeah it was adorable as you said but it's
also just like you just kind of ellie's got a hard shell we just saw which the people didn't see i
cut it out but sienna maybe the sweetest like sister move you were like hey your little brother
wants to someone to watch this with him.
Like, you got to watch this.
She was like, all right, great.
Immediately, she was just like down to do it.
I said, what a well-behaved kid.
Well, a little peek behind the parents and curtains here about this little pod father's breaker here.
When you tell him, hey, you can watch YouTube as long as you do exactly what I say.
They'll just do what I recommend.
Like Sienna, climb to the roof right now.
And like Sienna, make me. You give her a phone with youtube and she's like cool yeah going youtube
learn how to make peking duck and then cooking for the family she's like i'll figure it out
that whatever as long as i can get this stuff into my eyeballs they will do whatever you want so
that she's not usually that easy going i'll just say that about it but uh all things considered
i'm happy very easy going from uncle rob's perspective you know the uncle
who gets to pop in for 10 minutes a week and be like oh wow these kids are great um i loved and
i'm sure you loved this as well joel explaining the rules of football to ellie as he's like yeah
we just kind of go in one direction it was so funny and then if you don't get it in a couple
plays you have to get the 10 yards i had that
exact conversation with sienna like a month ago because you know they're watching the playoffs
or whatever and the yellow line has done so much for watching football i remember being like what
the fuck is this i'm like i like it i don't know what's going on now i just feel like they have to
get to the yellow line in four plays after three. If they can't get it, they're probably just going to punt the ball away.
It goes to the other team.
But I just had a big shit-eating grin.
This is – every week they do – they remind you of the world the way it is now
or the way it was back then, whether it's talking about airplanes
or driving in cars and now talking about football to kids.
It is – that was some real dad shit right there.
He did.
Yeah.
And Joel has to be a diehard football guy.
He's a fucking,
he's a Texan,
right?
Where's he from?
Yeah.
Well,
at least he's Texas when we pick up with him.
I don't know where he starts before then.
Yeah.
But he,
I wonder if he's got a team in the game,
if it's a fictional team.
Yeah.
And when he's like,
she's like,
man,
you guys love mascots he's
like oh yeah like yeah when you it's one of those things complaining about airplanes as you could
just fly anywhere in the world in like less than a day or complaining about cars or you could go
anywhere locally very quickly and then like the amount that we worship fucking like the mascot
of your team or the the star player not even the star player we have entire fucking website that we're currently on that is just about quote-unquote sports right it's fucking
bananas when you just take a step back and look how we worship these motherfuckers bob fox was
like ready to get knocked out by floyd mayweather senior for an irish guy that he met once yeah
fact that's an absolute fact and the more joel opens up the more i like his character and i
wonder if in writing it's like an easy thing to do or a hard thing to do in writing a hard ass
who starts to open up because some of those are my favorite characters i think of um uh brett
goldstein why can't i think of his name roy kent i think of roy kent all the time as the hard ass
who the more you see his relationship with his niece and everything, the more you're like, I fucking love this guy.
Joel's the same way.
We're when he's opening up about wanting to be a singer or a sheep farmer and he's talking about contractors and football with Ellie.
I'm like, this guy is the fucking best.
Like there is a little heart that's covered by a cold shell and we got to get to that.
We're chiseling away at it right now.
Unfortunately, someone chisel chisels away at it with a baseball bat and just a bit.
The end of the episode, they start kind of going to into this building.
They see a group come up on them.
Raiders, maybe whatever.
I like just calling people Raiders.
I like Raiders.
You know, Raiders come up on him and he gets into a fight with
one of them in particular who stabs him with a baseball bat unknowingly the classic you got
stabbed in the fight your adrenaline was going you didn't even realize it until you look down
and ellie puts him back on the horse they get on the horse together the end of the episode he just
fucking does the fall off the horse joel's dead rest in peace that's the end of pedro pascal
on the show no i'm kidding roll credit thank god this fucking show's over but yeah crazy ending to
the episode and they did a uh move that i appreciated in the preview for next week's
episode we did not see pedro pascal so you know if you don't know this guy's the main character
of the show maybe you think he's gone yeah i i do appreciate that now was it did he was there something on the baseball bat that he
stabbed with or did he hit him with like a knife in another hand or something like that i thought
it was a broken bat i thought it was like a bat broke and the shard of it stabbed him i could be
wrong about okay only watched the episode once yeah me too i i just when you said that i thought maybe i missed something um fucking uh joel when he said what's tommy
afraid of when he said what was tommy so afraid of that's like saying we haven't in traffic yet
we haven't the edibles haven't kicked in yet yeah and it's like we just started this trip we're
halfway through trust me and then you're fucking either stuck in traffic or you're on Neptune from the fucking edibles you just ate responsibly.
So, yeah, that one pissed me off.
And these idiots going towards the clanging like a bunch of fucking.
Yeah.
What's that clang?
Let's just go upstairs in the tight hallway where the fucking fireflies escape from for some reason.
And boom, there's fucking.
I mean, it's just being monkeys.
Yeah.
I have a
theory i feel like whoever uh is playing this version of last of us in this it's this video
game they turn it on easy mode because we've seen about six clickers other than you know the horde
that came out and got kathleen and all them i feel like we're on easy mode right now and listen
as someone that enjoys the stories other than the heart getting ripped out and doesn't like and has to turn the remote on low and holds his ears like a little baby.
I kind of give me a couple of zombies here, you know, or whatever.
I'm not people.
I'm just clickers, whatever the fuck.
Yeah.
Don't use the Z word.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I know people get mad about the Z word.
I appreciate the Raiders as a,
as an enemy.
And then also give me some fun guide motherfuckers.
Some fun guys.
As we said,
fun guys.
Yeah,
exactly.
That was the last of us.
Episode six,
though.
I saw some people calling it the weakest of the series so far.
I would agree that it was like weaker than some episodes where we get,
you know,
Sam and Henry,
it was weaker than last week.
But if this is the weakest that this series has to offer,
it's still better than everything else on TV right now.
It is movie quality week to week.
I enjoyed this episode start to finish.
There was nothing about it other than Tommy not going with his brother.
I was like,
you could have gone.
But other than that,
I was like fucking great episode of television.
This and poker face are my two shows right now. Poker peacock ryan johnson show it's got natasha leone
in it um i would recommend both of them but last of us if you're looking to have a show to talk
about with people in the office people in you whatever wherever you're going this is probably
the one yeah i think so even though they had that did you see that glaring editing mishap they had
i saw the cameraman almost ruined the show i saw as you said you might never be able to watch it Yeah, I think so. Even though they had that, did you see that glaring editing mishap they had? Yeah, I saw it.
With the cameraman?
Almost ruined the show.
I saw, as you said, you might never be able to watch it again.
But yeah, they had a Game of Thrones-like moment where in a pan-out drone shot,
if you look real close in the corner of the screen, you can see some members of the film crew.
I can't believe people actually have the where wherewithal during those like beautiful scenery shots.
They're like, oh, wait, there's two cameramen hiding under a pine tree.
How do you catch that for the first time?
I wonder if it's the heavy spoilers type people or do they go through the episode and really scrub every inch of the screen for everything, watch it in half speed or something?
Or is it someone that just happens to be looking at that part of the screen in that moment and was like, wait, what was that?
Go back. I wonder. speed or something or is it someone that just happens to be looking at that part of the screen in that moment was like wait what was that go back i wonder do you think you would have spotted the starbucks cup in game of thrones no i didn't i wouldn't i didn't spot it i don't know if i
yeah so that might be a fun game i i think show should put a starbucks cup in every scene and
it's like oh there it is it's the where's waldo it's the hidden mickey as disney has all right that was uh my mom's basement for the last of us week six as we mentioned next

okay bob honest would you be all right if tommy dies in this season yeah yeah yeah
oh man go back for your brother that's what happens yep hey but you uh without giving
away you were pretty vicious about a certain character you know if you wanted to see their
death in ant-man i appreciate the honesty here so that i liked tommy but i didn't love tommy
you know what i mean and it goes for sister, brother, sister, sibling.
I got a tattoo for my sister here.
I got a tattoo for my brother here.
I'm just a I'm a good sibling.
I think I try to be a good sibling.
I want to be a good sibling.
So Tommy wanting to be a good husband over that and kind of discarding his brother and
his family for that.
