Hey, My Mom's Basement listeners, you can find our episodes on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube, and Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Hello and welcome to My Mom's Basement, presented by Barstool Sports and another Daredevil born-again edition of My Mom's Basement, but just not your average Daredevil born-again edition of My Mom's Basement. It's the penultimate episode we're talking about today. You know we love penultimate episodes here in the basement. It is myself, Robbie Fox here with Clem as always. Clem, how we feeling? Hit off the air horns, Bob.

We're talking penultimate. We hit off air horns. I'm just like. Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba. Ba ba ba ba ba ba. Yeah, it's a fun penultimate episode to talk about. There's a lot to talk about. We've got a little bit of nerd news to talk about.

Not a ton. Kind of a slow week in the nerd news world. But of course, off the top, I'll do a quick basement keeping. Do it real quick, because you guys have heard me say this a bunch. I'm doing Marvel rival streams every Tuesday at four. Doing a My Mom's Basement slash Mostly Sports WWE 2K25 stream next week with Brandon Walker.

Stay tuned for more details on that, because it's gonna be very fun and the 24-hour made the fourth stream is still happening now the 24-hour made the fourth stream I think I'm gonna call the season one finale of the my mom's basement streams because after that I got to rework how I'm Doing the video game streams. They just haven't been getting as many viewers as I thought or hoped they would get So I'm gonna rework the structure. I'm still going to do streams. I'm going to find a way to do streams because I enjoy it. And I think it's a good thing for the channel to have in the back pocket. But after that, maybe take a week or two off rework things and then come back with more streams. I think the most important part of these streams was not the amount of viewers. It's that

we got Bob on the stream. So we got, we got him. We just need a bump of the dosage, maybe a little bit. Yeah. And the 24 hour may the fourth one is going to be super fun. Ton of stuff in the works for that. Um, and then the only other basement keeping thing I wrote down, just give everyone the heads up, keep an eye out. If you're going to watch a UFC this weekend, huge card in Miami, me and Dave are going to be in the celeb section. It's gonna be my first time ever in the celeb section and not press row, but Dave hit me up,

asked if I wanted to sit with him. I said, of course. So tomorrow afternoon, I'm flying down to Miami for Patty the baddie. One of my favorite, maybe my favorite bar stool friendship is you and Dave. I just love, and he's a Bob Fox guy. He's been a Bob Fox guy.

Obviously you were thinking. Thank God. Yes. Yeah. Thank God. I feel like you, there's, there's two sides of the equation with Dave. Usually you're either one of his guys or you're not. And I'm very happy. We're both on the good side. I mean, hence the Disney boys, you know, the fact that Disney boys and there was talks of a sequel. I'm like, holy shit, I'm like, cool, cool, cool. Now we're teammates on the dozen so Bob Fox with the celebs rubbing elbows Bob Fox with Miami celebs are you ready

for that because that's like I don't know I don't know who's gonna be around me I'm thinking like is there any gonna be anyone that we love actor wise you know there's been events where I go and it's like holy shit fucking Diego Luna Cassian Endor was that UFC. Like am I going to be able to see someone from Star Wars or Marvel? If that's the case, I don't think I'm going to be able to keep my cool now. There's potential for magic. We just run the rundown together. We check out the rundown. Like you said, it's essentially at my mom's basement. Yes, Eddie who's a basement dweller in his own

right. I believe in though we know now. Excuse me. The garage is in Chicago garage. Yes, he's a basement dweller in his own right, I believe in though. We know now, excuse me, the garage is in Chicago. Garage. Yes. He's a garage guy, basement boy, two different things. Nonetheless, good, good mood crew together again. We talked about Minecraft on that. So if you want to hear us talk about, I mean, we didn't see the movie, but we talked about the whole chicken jockey shit.

And we talked about a lot on that rundown. Again, it feels like the Thursday rundown is a collab between the rundown and my mom's basement. We put a little basement charm into it. Yeah. You know what? He doesn't get a lot of shows. I'll shout out Nate. Nate usually puts ugly spots where we get to be together and we get either we have Jeff, who's a movie guy, obviously Eddie large, our kind of people. That'd be fun if we just talked about like Minecraft strategy for 20 minutes. I'm more of an ender dragon guy. I get I'm just going off the basis. Yeah. I like the pickaxes. David pickaxe, right? The pickaxe. Yeah, totally. Okay. Yeah. Me, Nate and Fidelberg actually went to see

Mark Hoppus's book tour last night. He's doing like kind of it's not a one man show. It's like a scripted interview. It's a weird thing to say, but it's like the guy interviewing him is the co-author and he's basically just queuing Mark Hoppus up for stories that are like videos and pictures and stuff. It was great. We're in the third row. Mark Hoppus is like making eye contact with everyone in the first few rows. The only bad thing and the only reason I'm really bringing it up because it's a funny story. I had a girl next to me that came five minutes into the show, blackout drunk and she had a tall boy in between her legs that she would like fall asleep in her chair and it would fall almost full a dozen times, 15 times throughout the night.

Do you know how loud it is when a full tall boy hits the hardwood floor and you're in the third row. It's not a concert. It's him speaking like this. He's walking around with a mic and it's, it was crazy. Fidelberg and Nate kept looking at me like, what the fuck is going on over there? And I was like, she's drunk. Nate was like, why don't you say something? I was like, I can't say something. If I say something, she'll try to have a dialogue with me at back and forth. It was like a Larry David. I was like, I don't want to be caught in an argument while Mark Hoppus is five feet away from it

Yeah, then Mark Hoppus yells at you like the teacher when you're telling someone else. I know Yeah, I did I did not want that I had nightmares about that I'm this girl in my mind's eye. I'm picturing her as The girl from she hulk with the name but not where you think it is That is in yes She Hulk with the name but not where you think it is. What was your name again, Deemer? Madison. Madison. Yes. Madison was a lot. Yeah, honestly, not too far off. And it was also so crazy. She was agreeing with the most random shit

he was saying on stage. So like if you were telling a story and you were like, oh, you know, in Iron Man 3 when the Mandarin shows up, it'd be like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Mark Hoppus is telling this intricate story that nobody's ever heard about this naval base in Kuwait that Blink 182 played on. He's like, we were on naval base 34728.

And she's like, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. That's not when you agree. That's not when she's clapping and laughing at the wrong moments. It was crazy. She was making a scene. And she showed up alone too, 10 minutes into the show. They had a huge like 10 part warning in the beginning of the show. No photos or videos He's doing the show in multiple cities doesn't want spoilers to get out. So please put your phones away five minutes later

It's like seriously, dude. You didn't put your phone away. Then it's like dude. You got to put your phone away Are you kidding me? She shows up? She filmed the whole show film the whole show Just a flashlight was on at one point Nate was was like, you got to tell her to turn the flashlight off. I'm like, I'm not talking to her. She is the worst. Hopefully. I mean, she might need it. It sounds like she was blacked out. So she won't remember any of it. Hopefully if you're my mom's basement listener, clean it up. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Hopefully she realizes how awful the person she is when she rewatches it But people like that they don't know those videos

Yeah, true They'll be mortifying to look back at cuz she was filming and then she would fall asleep and it would still I would look over At the phone. It was still filming but just her feet if she was if she was 12 years younger She probably be the one throwing popcorn at Minecraft. I would have. Oh my God. She'd be the chicken jockey girl. Yeah. And just one more note on this night. We went to juniors across the street from the venue because Fidelberg said they created

the black and white cookie and he wanted to try it from the original place. So he gets a black and white cookie. Nate gets a black and white cookie. I go with the Italian, the rainbow cookie. We tried to smuggle him in. Fiedelberg got his pass. Me and Nate stopped at the border. They said, absolutely not.

We just shoved the cookies in our face and then got back in line and went. It was a hell of a night. Good night. Shout out, Nate. Shout out, Fights. Jr's just make a good black and white though. Very good black.

I'm a big black and white guy. They said that. I'm not a big black and white guy. I like the vanilla icing. I've a big black. They said that I'm not a big black and white guy. I like the the the vanilla icing I've never been a chocolate icing person. We I I eat the I think I kind of go I'll nibble on some chocolate then I go back to the vanilla savages go down the middle. I don't do that Oh, that's that's people that don't break the KitKats before they eat them. Yeah, exactly and Bob Let me tell you last night is a little bit of a left turn. I had myself, there's a little Italian,

it's not even a restaurant, it's like a deli, it's nicer than that though. Couple other ladies, they sell like pastas and some, you get some sandwiches there, and they had a rainbow cookie pound cake, Bob. And it was, and this is a thing, usually it gets dried out when they try to put it in cake form or

they mess up the jelly. It was thick because you're good rainbow cookies gotta have a thick consistency and it was the best. It surpassed my expectations. 10 out of 10. Next time I see you Bob Fox, I am getting you. Oh yes. They call it. They go. It goes by the block too. You can get a a piece a slice or a block So I'm getting you a block of it and you're gonna have your mind blown. Maybe we'll make it a larger try this, you know Oh, yeah. Yeah, that'd be good. That'd be fun a little Italian episode with like some Irish as they come really Large 100% Irish both parents literally off the boat. I'm half Italian. So carry us from the episode. I got like 25% Italian in my blood.

25%. You're from Jersey too, so you go, oh, you know, Papa Delano. Oh, yeah, I mean, my mom is basically 100%. My mom is 50, I think. My mom's like 50% German, 50 Italian. She got none of the German. She's like 100% Italian, so I'll count that as more.

I had a quick programming note of just shows that are common shows that are out shows that I have one recommendation, um, new season of black mirror is out. I really love black mirror. I don't know if you've ever died to the black. Yeah. Two episodes. I did. It's very interesting. I have to say, like, yeah, one where the guys on the treadmill and like these live in his life through that. Yeah. It was very cool. And then I've read about Black Mirror. I'm like, nope, too scary because you kind of a modern Twilight Zone.

Every episode is weird and different. This season, they did a sequel to an episode they did, I think last season of the season before, I think, starring Kristen Milioti, a favorite of the basement. So I wanted to shout that out. It's the USS Callister episode, which is basically like Star Trek type episode where she was on the ship. Really, really good stuff. Last of Us Season Two,

obviously this Sunday night, we're going to be recapping it in the basement. It's going to be very fun. And Peacemaker Season Two, we found out, premieres this August. We were talking about it. It's just going to be a hell of a stacked basement up until the fall pretty much. We have The Last of Us, Andor, Thunderbolts, Fantastic Four. I mean, all of the movies in July, Fantastic Four, Jurassic World is apparently great, Superman, all of these shows, it's gonna be awesome. Yeah, that's the funny how it comes out in August. And basically we're gonna have something to talk about.

Not a lot of dead time in the basement which is like we like to work so keep it rolling keep the lights on keep the shattered box coming so and then yeah Daredevil finale next week couldn't come at a better time with everything else coming so I'm very excited about that. Is that that's kind of the chunk of it though right there's nothing else am I missing anything along the way i don't think so no marvel does they're not doing uh iron heart or that might be in the fall that might be like right as peacemakers wrapping up we're gonna see about this with iron heart armor any of this i don't know what's coming out of when i gotta be convinced that it's gonna be review worthy but we'll worry about that when we get there. I'm pretty sure peacemaker will be.

And a quick recommendation for everyone to show that I've been loving the studio on Apple TV plus is the new Seth Rogen show where he plays the head of a studio who's trying to find the balance between making good movies and making the studio money. And it is so funny if you like the kind of stuff that we talk about in the basement with like, oh, this got canceled and this went into production. If you like the movie business, essentially, I really think you'll like the show. It's so funny. So well shot. There's so many one shots in the show that are like actually like mind blowing where you're like, I have no fucking

idea how they were able to pull that off. Um, and it has famous directors playing themselves. So it's got Scorsese playing himself. It's got Ron Howard playing himself and they're playing amped up versions of themselves, but almost in that like entourage type way. So it's only four episodes in right now. I've only seen the first three. I'll probably watch the fourth tonight,

but big recommendation hop in on the studio. It's good stuff. Season one, episode four? Oh, I was gonna hop in and I said, um, I thought this was the second season and I know they're already doing episodes and I'm like, I'm too far behind. Not so fast. My friend. I am going to maybe being that one out, which I'll give from my, uh, my recommendation that you gave me. I'm only one episode, two episodes in paradise on Hulu. Thumbs up. Like you have the clucks locked in.

It's a couple show that we're both locked in. And then as soon as we started watching, baseball season started. And then from seven to 10 every night, I watched the Mets so that it's like I'm gone. But I am itching to get back. And I think the next two nights, we don't have the Mets on at night due to a day off

and then West Coast. And it's like Paradise is first on the docket, Bob. First on the docket, Bob, first on the docket for us. I love that it honestly, it gets better. Like it really just keeps unraveling and the mystery keeps unfolding. It's good stuff. Paradise on Hulu, big recommendation. Now let's tell everyone about another recommendation that is game time. We absolutely love game time here in the basement because they don't make it easy to buy tickets to concerts or shows or Broadway shows, whatever you want to go to nowadays.

You got to sign up for the pre-sale, get in the queue by the time you get through, the best seats are gone. Going to a concert should be about the show itself, not the virtual line you're on beforehand and basically playing the lottery for a ticket. Lucky for me, I always use Game Time, the official ticketing partner of Barstool Sports. They make tickets faster and easier. Prices on the app actually go down the closer it gets to Showtime. Plus, on April 22nd for Earth Day, when you select and purchase a super deal,

Game Time will plant a tree with the proceeds. So you're basically doing the world good by buying yourself a ticket. It's good karma to buy yourself a ticket via Game Time. You could go to the Mark Hoppus book tour. I was just talking about hopefully you don't have someone sitting next to you that was, you know, drunk like they were for me. But I assume most people at the book tour probably well behaved. So

go check out tickets for the book tour and game time. See if they got those take the guesswork out of buying tickets with game time. Download the game time app, create an account use code MMB for $20 off your first purchase. Terms apply. Again, create an account. Redeem code MMB for $20 off. What time is it, Clem? Game Time. Bob, I just looked this up. So hopefully he doesn't find out. Papa Clem's not much of a nerd, not much of a, as far as I know, a listener, I'm getting him a round at Bethpage. I'm going to try to figure out how to get around a Bethpage black for him.

The writer cup is there and I'm looking, they got writer cup tickets and it's not as crazy as I thought it was going to be. So that would be nice. Get a little basement dip in there with a little discount could work out. So, So uh shout out game time. I don't think we even talked about on the basement. Did we uh because we talked about on the stream that you were on this week. Um you went viral this week for being a great dad. You pulled AJ out of school early and brought him to opening day. That was a hell of a video. Oh yeah it was uh one of those things that I was nervous about. So quick, quick setup for the story. AJ asked like some point in the winter. He goes, dad, what's it called the first game you're

the baseball baseball team plays in the season? I go opening day. He goes, oh yeah, let's go to that next year. Like oh thanks bro. I gotta go find opening day tickets after the Mets sign Juan Soto, right? And they have like, so whatever. Tickets are bought and I'm just nervous. He's gonna get, you know, spoiled the surprise. Someone's gonna spill it.

So happy to be his birthday a couple of days later. Had the tickets in a gift if anyone saw it. And the excitement on his face was like what it was all about and I recommend any parent do it once for your kids because I've heard I have multiple people come up to me and say man my dad did this to me when I was a kid my mom did the same thing and it was one thing that I'll always core memory remember the rest of my life and but the biggest thing was he immediately said thanks

dad and that was the best part about it because I was like I've've raised a kid that says thank you on his own for a nice deed. And I said it on the stream. The craziest thing is like five different people came up to him who had no clue who I was and was like, are you the kid that was, uh, got surprised for opening day? And he's like, uh, yeah. And he doesn't know what these people are right. And strangers at a baseball game, he's a seven year old and he's just like, uh, and it was so cool. He was like his own little mini celebrity for the day. So he's like, you ain't the most famous guy in the house anymore. Dad put me

on YouTube. That's what he said. He is it put me on YouTube because he doesn't know how they're viewing his stuff. He just goes social media and I said, why is Instagram put it up and yeah, it just, it crushed him views. And it was something that like, I don't like being the guy to put up like family moments, but I was recording it for my wife who wanted to see it. And I was like, you know what, like let's put it out. It's just good mojo. I mean, you've heard the PFT story, right?

Yeah. His dad picked him up, told him he was bringing him to opening day and was just a joke. He wasn't. It was April fools. And then yeah, April fools. That's right. His brother pops out of the backseat April fools and then drives him back to school. And he had to go back to school after everyone thought he was leaving. And I told my dad that story of my dad's like, he couldn't believe it. Like he was just

Oh, that's childhood drama. Yeah. Yeah, that trauma for his brain to the man we have today that entertains us had to happen. So it was a what do they call it? A what event a Nexus event? Oh, yeah. Yeah, that had to happen in his life. That was BFT's Nexus event. So we got a couple things nerd news to talk about the first being the extended look at Superman. This was actually attached to the Minecraft movie and I was afraid that we weren't going to be able to see it if we didn't see the Minecraft movie. I was like, geez, am I going to have

to go to this in theaters? Like I think I'll actually see the Minecraft movie because I'm very curious about it having played the game a lot, but I just didn't want to experience the chicky chicken jockey craze phenomenon. They put it out online. It's basically an extended version of the crypto home scene from the trailer. And then they play like kind of a similar but recut trailer after that. And we see a lot more crypto. We see crypto run up to them and jump on them.

Kind of like Faith jumps on me when she's trying to wake me up. And immediately like they can knock the wind out of you. It was really cracked me up as a dog owner. I'm sure parents can feel the same thing. Kids climbing on you in bed and something when you're not even awake yet and the wind gets knocked out of you and you're like, oh no, please no. Cracked me up though.

I think the CGI on crypto looks incredible. I think he's a fucking CGI dog. Like as far as I know, I don't think he was a real dog at any point on Set which is insane because he looks perfect Drags him home robots work on Superman There's kind of a funny joke where one of them is like I don't feel any emotion then the other ones like oh he looked At me. This is awesome. They then they use like magnifying glasses. They use the Sun to heal him. He's screaming I think it looks awesome like Clemmer actually went to Lincoln

Square IMAX to see the Minecraft movie. He saw this on the IMAX screen. He was like, it was mind-blowing. The score was amazing. The visuals were amazing. Of course, Snyder fans are taking every frame and being like, it's not as good as Henry Cavill. The Snyder fans are being horrible when it comes to the Superman movie. Horrible, absolutely despicable behavior by the Snyder fans. But honestly, this just made me way more excited, way more hype. I think the robots look fucking sick. I think the Fortress of Solitude looks amazing

coming out of the ground. I love that the Superman logo is flat out on it. Someone said, I love that Superman looks like Superman again, and kind of throwing a shot at the Snyder movies. But I kind of see what they were saying in that like this movie is not afraid to like be like yes Here's the logo on the fortress of solitude. Is it a bit like weird and like cheesy? But yeah, that's like Superman That's how it is in the comics. It's not just ice in the ground and it happens to be a fortress This is his fucking home base. So I thought it looked great. What about you? Yeah, they're just like this is Superman

We're done with like all the little in terms. We're not going to go through all of it. And let's fucking, this is the dude. This is the guy and they need this thing to hit and your guy, my guy, here he is flying in the screen. Hell yeah. Best dollar I ever spent a dollar true right here for this guy. I need that for my guy. Just stood above. Uh, but it's like at this point, just run the ball, get your three to four yards, don't fumble, just keep getting first downs. And then, I mean, the day is the day when it comes out

and I'm just hoping it's gonna be good. But Clemmer's locked in on it, he's stoked. Oh, locked in, stoked, yeah. Honestly, a lot of the offices, Tommy is locked in, stoked, we had him on the podcast, talked to him about it. But he watched that in the office and he turned around. He's like, I'm not gonna lie. That got me a little hard.

He's so in. Yeah, we might need to get together like a group. We might need to fucking get an end game type group together for Superman and just celebrate the main superhero of the DC universe and for the summer, until Batman goes back I really want to bring Tommy's uncle or whatever, but it sounds like comic book uncle going out there's no chance

Superman has had some test screenings too. There's good words coming from them, but it's very scarce. We're not hearing any details or anything It's just like yeah, it was good. Yeah, there's funny moments, but it's very scarce. We're not hearing any details or anything. It's just like, yeah, it was good. Yeah, there's funny moments, but it's not all funny. It's pretty serious for most of it. Stuff we have heard a lot about is a Thunderbolts test screening that happened recently. There was a quote from this Thunderbolts test screening that happened I think about six weeks ago,

and someone decided to violate their NDA. They said, if you're feeling jaded by the capeshit genre, because they're all feeling the same, I would check this one out. The journey it takes the characters on is actually interesting. The team dynamic is great, not unlike Guardians of the Galaxy. And the way Sentry slash the void is executed into the story is really fascinating. The audience I was with seemed to love it and couldn't stop talking about it highly after the screening.

Pretty great news, if true, of course. It's like, that could be someone making this up completely on Reddit. It could be a Marvel fucking spy putting a little good PR out there. This post also said they expected it to be critics and audience above 90% on Rotten Tomatoes. And when they say that, I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa,

hold your horses. That seems like you're shooting high. You're shooting for a lot there. I don't know if it's going to be 90. But I do for some reason, I do want to believe that maybe it's just because I want it to be so good. I also didn't realize this is actually the first movie Marvel has made since Bob Iger took over and said quality over quantity. I kind of thought it could have been Captain America. I thought it was around that time where they might have been why they did so many reshoots. He might have been like, you got to go fix this, this and this.

But apparently this is the first under the quality over quantity phase of Marvel yet again. All right. I mean, so, you know, the 90 critic review and a bunch of different characters come together that you don't really know or care about. And then they said guardians and it's like, God, I have the restrictor plate on this car. I'm trying not to let it you know, get out of there. I'm trying to let the high train roll but I'm gonna pump the brakes on it and just say maybe fake, maybe one

person's opinion, whatever. But it's a good thing, right? Because how many times have we heard the like, the opposite? Yeah. And the scary thing was with Ant-Man quantumania, where it was like, you were hearing, I honestly think at this point, if I hear the words Empire Strikes Back, I think it's like a death kit. Because I go back to The Last Jedi, that was like the big thing going in was it was the new Empire Strikes Back. And I've walked out of the movie theater so many times disappointed with that movie. Which speaking of which, I have a take I wanted to run by you real quick.

And it came up about Empire Strikes Back. Empire Strikes Back, I feel like more than any movie, I feel a part of as I watch it. Do you feel like that? Like there's something about the vibe and that's why I love it so much. I think it's why I love the Falcon so much because when I think Empire Strikes Back, it's a lot of times I'm thinking I'm with Han Solo and Leia and Chewie in the Falcon and I just love everything about it when you go into the cave and It's rather being the worm you have the asteroid field you have these memories. Yes In Cloud City with them and it just is like a level of comfort

I don't feel on a lot of other movies I guess Godfather has a couple times where you feel like you're in that Godfather world But Empire is so unique in that and I I think that's why it sticks I and that's why I love it more than I don't feel like that with even a new hope for Jedi, I feel like that Empire feels way more lived in for sure. It feels way more comfortable. They knew exactly what this universe should look like, which is crazy because they expand it so much in Empire.

Empire, you find out the force can move things with your mind. Like that wasn't even a thing in the first one, basically. But like the way they expand the universe, show new planets, I completely agree with that take. Like it feels so just real. Like the whole universe feels like it should exist and everything interlocks perfectly. Every scene connects to the next perfectly. Oh, Empire Strikes Back. So good. You're making me want to go back and watch it. Maybe that's what I'll watch in my flight tomorrow. I think I'm just going to throw that on the background as I do work the rest of the day and just go back to all those little planets. Even when you go to Degobah, you just, oh, I feel the rain. It's a little chilly, but

it's nice. You smell it. You're like, what's that smell? Is there mold in here? No, it's Degobah. This asshole doesn't even know what Yoda looks like. He's talking to some alien creature. This asshole doesn't even know Yoda looks like he's he's talking about some alien creature And then the only other item I had was Robert Pattinson is in talks to play the villain in Dune Messiah And people are of course fired up about this because Robert Pattinson is just on an unbelievable run right now He's I'm working on the Odyssey with Christopher Nolan right now. He did Tenet with him a few years ago He'll be doing Batman part two fingers fingers crossed, one of these days. Hopefully end of this year they start shooting. He's got a couple more movies in the works that I know,

I think it's the director of You Were Never Really Here he's working on a movie with that people are stoked about and then potentially working with Denis Villeneuve on Dune Messiah. I did a little bit of research, not a lot on this character. I believe this character is kind of a man with no face. Someone said that he only appears as himself like at the beginning and end of the story, or his story at least, and a lot of the time he's working with other people's faces. I'm wondering if they'll like get other actors to play these faces or if they're going to be like Robert

Pattinson's such a good actor, we're just going to do crazy prosthetics and make him look different in every scene. Okay, cuz by Trippidation and this is someone who doesn't know a lot about Rob perpads and my wife is obsessed with the Twilight series The book series and she obviously watched the movies and then obviously we have him in the Batman And I'm is he Goth and kind of sad sack and I don't know. I don't know you don't know No, no, no, no, no, no, all his movies. No, he's got crazy range recently. Recently, it's been like he was in this movie Good Time, a sad fee brother movie that was the one they made right before they made uncut gems and it has that chaotic vibe. He plays like a scumbag from Queens ripping people

off doing the worst things in the world. He's got crazy range now. Yeah. Cause I, again, I I'm cool with Pattinson. I got no crazy range now. Yeah, because again, I'm cool with Pattinson. I got no beef towards him. I want, I want to like it. And the fact that, like you said, even if he was like that, I feel like it wouldn't be a problem if he's going to be literally different faces. Uh, thing is they nailed this role. And if he's as good as clearly they think he is by casting him. I mean, our boy, Shome, you gotta keep up with Shalome, right? Yeah, and they were in a movie together that I think I talked about a few weeks ago,

The King, and they were amazing, like playing off of each other. I think I said Robert Pattinson's doing the French accent, Timothee Shalome is doing the British accent. They flip accents and they're talking shit back and forth. There's a scene where Robert Pattinson's like, you've got big balls for an Englishman. You have big balls, tiny little cock, big balls, tiny cock.

And he's taunting him like this in the tent. It's unbelievable. The aura's off the charts. Watch The King if you haven't seen a big recommendation from the basement yet again. I know I said it a few weeks ago. The Salome, the Shalome see the C word since he's the British guy.

Don't think he says it in that movie. He might. Okay, I'm gonna be on Chalamet Seaward watch. Has he you think he's ever said the seaward before and I'm not in real life. I'm in the movie. If he if he would say it in any movie, I think that would be the one. He didn't drop it Wonka. I remember that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Took a lot of convincing to get you to watch Wonka, our boy.

And it was good. It was good. The Hume Paloompa I loved. Every single year at my kid's school, they do a book that the whole school has to read. And then if they do the Prince, let's do some crazy tasks. This year is Charlie and the Chalk of Factor.

I couldn't be happier. Oh, nice. Yeah. It's awesome. Awesome. So our boy, Shalom Knight, Pattinson. This has a chance awesome. Awesome. So our boy shallow night a patsen This has this has a chance though and this could be the best of the best the best of the dunes, right now We don't know the story of the dunes. I feel like it's probably something like Star Wars. Yeah, right Yeah, true. Um, I do feel like I don't really know if the third book is it or the end of the story

So this is the second book because the they split the first book into doing one and two I believe so The Dune history they have a lot of books most of them were written by the Frank Frank Herbert guy I think and then His son took over at some point and I don't think people like his son's books They're like, oh, yeah oh yeah kind of ruined the franchise this was an original author book and I believe this is sort of the revenge of the Sith of the Dune universe with Timothy Chalamet playing the role of Anakin Skywalker okay I think I think they're going down that path and doing Messiah because he's

buying into his own stuff as the Messiah a little too much. The hype man, like our boy, Lisa and Al-Gaib when he keeps saying it. Yeah. I'm not too, right. So I'll be interested to see how Patenton plays off him. But yeah. So is this confirmed? We're, we're, we're not confirmed yet, but the way that all of the trades are

talking about it makes me think they're, they're really like Titan talks about it. I'd love to have a Pattinson Chalamet. Would you want Pattinson and Chalamet to be like to be like rivals in the next 20 years as actors or like but yeah, yeah, no fucking red heart and Shawn Michaels. They bring the best out of each other via you know, competitive spirit. Pattinson takes, takes Jenner or the other Jenner's sister. Christopher Nolan calls for the bell. Crazy shit going here. I love the Chalamet rival and like he wins the Oscar in like a weaker year though.

And it's like, well, yeah's kind of cool too, right? I don't expect this as a shallow made guy. I don't want to see that as a shallow made guy. I'm a fan of both of them. I want to root for both of them, but I'd like to see them fucking go head to head. Almost like, listen, I said it could be Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels.

It could also be Stone Cold and The Rock. You know, during that feud, you're like, you could be a Stone Cold guy, but you're like, The Rock's fucking awesome. Come on, we can all admit it. So it's, yeah. Before we get into Daredevil, Born Again, During that feud you're like you could be a stone cold guy, but you're like the rocks fucking awesome come on We got a little bit. Yeah Before we get into daredevil born again the penultimate episode we're gonna do one more ad so Jr..

see dkng.co slash audio. All right, Daredevil, Born Again, episode eight called Isle of Joy. It immediately feels to me like this episode has a step up in production. And I think that's credit to the directors who did the Loki season two, Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead. These were the guys brought in to reshoot the first episode and then they directed the final two as well.

Even the early shot of that flower and the way they like zoom out and turn it upside down and you see Dex is looking at it through prison. The entire use of blue light for Bullseye in this episode was fucking awesome. Then when they spin it on red with Matt at the end, just felt like this episode was a step up all the way through. I really loved it Yeah, the they stepped it up to another level. That's the perfect way to put it and he just knew off the bat You know, it was like oh, yeah one of those and it really the first shot I knew I was like, oh this is directed like really well and even the opening scene of

Watching bulls I get moved to gen pop the way it was executed felt like it had like, wait, when they're like, welcome to Genpop, Poindexter, it was like, oh fuck, like this evil guy who I hate. I was even like, oh, he's fucked. Or the people in there are fucked. I don't know who's locked in with who, Rorschach style. That's how you know you have a fucking good character is when you put that guy in Genpop and you're just like,

someone's in trouble and I'm not sure who. Right? Yeah. That was, that's how you know you're a good villain. Then crazy scene where Kingpin shows Vanessa, where he's been keeping Adam. And this was like one of those things where if you were to look at the scope of the season overall, you would imagine this is one of the biggest moments of the season. Like Vanessa sees where he's been keeping Adam and shit, but they did this two minutes into the episode and I love that it wasn't played as like the climax of this episode by any means and Vanessa kills Adam she shoots him

I think as much to put him out of his own misery as much as it was to show loyalty and and put the past Behind them. I think there was a there was a look where I felt like of course She's showing loyalty to Kingpin at this point, being like, fuck him, he's in the past, let's move on. She says something to Heather later on, the sins of our past are forgotten and we're moving on. I think it was also realizing he's not going to kill Adam, he's just going to keep him here forever. And I would rather just put him out of his misery, kill him now and get it over with.

She probably was like, I knew you were up to some shit. I knew you were just gonna let this shit pass. When he said- Fucking semantics again. When he said I couldn't look at his hands, I just started laughing. Yeah, there's the hands. We knew it.

I would have loved it if like he smashed the hand or she shot the hand, There was some sort of hand reference, but I mean, that could have been brutal just with a hammer to the hand. I'm sure he did that at some point to the, yeah, you know, that we just didn't see. They didn't catch it on camera. Yeah. Fisk strikes me as a guy that's going to do that at some point. Um, but between Vanessa and then Heather going back and forth with Matt, I hit the old girl boss hashtag on him. We're girl bossing on our boys this week. Yeah. And Heather, that was a tough back and forth between Heather and Matt, where she's going off on vigilantes. And she's obviously feeling the trauma of last week.

She's like, I killed him. Do you have any idea what that could have felt like? And he's like, No, I don't know. Like, how did I feel? She's like, you weren't there. And you know, everything in him wanted to be like, I was there. I saw it all happen. And she's saying there devil was out for himself. It was tough. She called him like a boy. It was like a boy in a mask. They're two boys in masks like serving themselves. He's just like, and then Buck shows up mid argument just the worst time he could possibly show up, knocks on the door with an invite to an event that Mayor Fisk is putting on and then Matt puts two and two together. The argument just grows at that point because he's like, you can't be seeing Wilson Fisk. Obviously he's seeing you to get to me, but can't explain

why that's obviously what's happening. She's like, you're insane if you think that. Like, what a narcissistic thing to say, basically it's tough because as the viewer who knows all of this stuff, you're obviously on Matt's side where you're like, you're wrong, Heather. But if you put yourself in her brain and her shoes, all of her arguments make sense where it's like, yeah, that's probably what a person would say. Her boyfriend is the shadiest figure in all of New York city. Yeah.

It looks real. It starts off like, oh, what are you working with there? And it just gets it's so tough. You're like, Matt, there's no way you can bullshit your way out of this one. But he's right, too. He's right about their devil. He's right about he's right about this. You just can't say why he's right.

It's so frustrating. It's frustrating for him. And you feel the frustration. It's like eventually he's going to either have to tell her or break it off. And that's the superhero conundrum. We've dealt with that time and time again. And then Kirsten tells Matt that Dex Poindexter was moved to Genpop, wants to talk to him. He's all shaken up emotionally. He yells at his client, which I loved that scene too. I love when he just felt like this guy was lying. He listened in on the heartbeat,

confirmed that he was lying, was like, shut the fuck up. I can't put you on the stand if we know you're lying. Like, I love just getting back at an idiot. Just getting back at someone trying to scheme over the system again. Didn't she say he could get like disbarred or he get, maybe not disbarred, but it was like, there was some crime.

I'm like, whoa, is that the case? That's kind of bullshit. But yeah, our boy Matt is, does this always happen to him? Is everything just falling apart from all angles by the end of the seasons? Yeah, you're like definitely. Things definitely bubble up. Like it's just like pushes it down it comes up

He pushes it down it comes up and then eventually everything comes to a head. It's a powder keg And shout out to those people who are tweeting out all the memes about is Matt really blind and every single girl He's ever I know had any kind of relationship with is an absolute smoke show Yeah, he does not settle for anything less than tens and that And that's only through feel, I guess. Yeah, I don't know. Then Michael Gandolfini or boy Daniel is made deputy mayor. And this is the writing on the wall for his superior, the lady that's been in charge in the whole time. She's getting pushed out the squeeze out is on. And I just hope that the squeeze out is like, hey, you're fired and not like,

hey, Daniel, here's a gun. Let's see what you can do. Like I could I could see it being, you know, an initiation of some sort. Daniel, she wouldn't let me do my Red Hook project. The actually be your on the line. The very extra pronunciation is like my favorite part. I love it. Every line he says now, I love his voice more and more. What was the word together an event where I could wear a white suit again?

They haven't seen me in my Sunday whites in a while. It's like his tiger Sunday red to bring it back to the masters. When Kingpin throws on the whites, he's loving it and make sure to pack my tide pen. A big man is known to spill stuff on himself. Kingpin's the best. D'Onofrio is the fucking best and shout out D'Onofrio on Twitter. He's just been singing the praise of the actress that plays Vanessa. Like whenever someone praises him, he's like, oh, it's don't praise me.

Praise Vanessa. Yeah. Awesome. And it's something I didn't realize or if we had talked about in the past, I didn't remember. He talks on I think it was on Twitter about how he cannot do the movies in the MCU movies because he's technically a Spider-Man villain, but he's allowed to do the TV shows. That just fucking sucks. It's something and we didn't think that was the case, I suppose, because Sony owns them and they have some kind of saying

in the Spider-Man movies that maybe they could make a deal one of these days. But yeah, as of right now, he said he could only appear in TV shows, not movies, which sucks because we've also like, I think we've theorized, like, could Kingpin show up? This movie takes place in New York and this could, you know, even Thunderbolts, I think people have said, can Kingpin meet Valent meet Valentina and you know, that could be a cool on-screen conversation of some sort Apparently the answer is no which fucking sucks. Yeah, the the rights thing

They got a I think I just got to figure that out and let's get all the characters on the table. Yeah Everything just needs this whole Sony thing This needs to be and like Universal is the only place you can go to Marvel land is bullshit You need to get Marvel at Disney Mississippi no disrespect I'm probably fucking loves all the Marvel rides there although we shouldn't be disparaging Universal too much right now because I kind of want an invite to that epic universe thing with Mario land and how to train your dragon land and universal monster land and they have another I think it's wizard wizard

Wizardly world land or something it it looks awesome. I did look at a YouTube of it My YouTube premium premium is officially up. So I'm back to add so I will know only watching long-form YouTube's But I did watch the whole long-form YouTube and I say I was a little disappointed. I'm expecting a little more Maybe it's just well, I haven't seen I haven't seen a lot of YouTube. I have to say I was a little disappointed. I'm expecting a little more. Maybe it's just like- Well, I haven't seen a lot of YouTubes. I've only seen clips on Twitter. So maybe you're right. The clips are good when you start seeing the whole world

and these people are 10 out of 10 excited about it as they're reviewing it. And I'm like, ah, this isn't really for me. I'm still going. I gotta take the kids to Nintendo no matter what. So shout out Sam Lauderdale, by the way. Of course, our Universal pal. That was a great day. I love going to Universal that day. Going on the the Simpsons ride, Krusty land, all that was fun.

Yeah, and to be honest, I can't wait to go back to Universal with the kids. Gonna go to Jurassic Park World again, do the whole nine and then check out this world. But I just think from what I saw, it's not as great as I was hoping it was gonna be. But hey, listen, you're the basement boys and girls, you guys go, give us the reviews. We need to hear the reviews once it opens up. I have heard some people saying it could have been bigger. Everyone said they should have made maybe three parks,

but made them all, you know, 33% bigger. So I don't know. Matt goes back to Josie's, has a drink with Josie, Cherry shows up, and then he realizes, he is in this moment of realization when she serves him the drink and said this was the last thing that Foggy was drinking. He's like, that's what we would drink to celebrate.

So he was celebrating the case early, the case with dumb Benny, that sketchy phone call that he took right before he died. And it's like a light bulb moment where he storms out. Josie has a funny line where she's like, he didn't have to use his cane. It's like, I wonder why fucking Matt Murdoch, but I didn't fully put together The light bulb moment till later when he talks to Dexter he goes into Matt

Matt goes into Dexter's prison and they have a conversation and it doesn't seem like Kingpin Was the one to hire him because he's kind of like no like I could tell you what happened like he was telling the truth. He wasn't listening in the heartbeat. We couldn't hear the heartbeat. Then you could kind of put together, Vanessa was in charge for some reason. Vanessa hired Dex. Now I think maybe she hired Dex. And I've seen this theory online to kill all three, Matt, Karen and foggy that night, because they made a deal at the end of the original Netflix series, where Matt was like, you don't come after me, Foggy or Karen, and I'll never come after Vanessa.

But if you break that deal, it's on. So was Vanessa thinking, I'll just void the whole deal, kill the three of them and we're fine? I don't know. Say it with me, Bob. It was Vanessa all along. It was, it was, yeah. That was Vanessa all along. It was. It was. Yeah. It was a good twist. And the way they executed it and had Matt put it together felt very

detective show, you know, inspired, kind of lawyer show inspired. So I liked that too. We've talked about it a bunch, but they have not had a lot of Daredevil time. And it's worked because scenes like this I mean, we've talked about it a bunch, but they have not had a lot of Daredevil time and with and it's worked because scenes like this always do play and the whole stories have have played. I'm very impressed with the show. Very, very. Yeah. Well, I mean, even this episode, we thought we were going to get a lot of action. We thought we were going to get Daredevil and Punisher. I think they're saving that for the finale. Fingers

crossed they're saving it for the finale because I wanted some Punisher in this episode. All right. I'm happy you brought this up because I didn't think of it until just now. I Don't give some fucking punishing in the season finale. We need some punishing Bodies I want to see him catching bodies We have a ceiling that we can hit for my like overall reviews of this season and if Punisher ain't punishing What the fuck are we doing just for like that was a good scene they had together Great yeah, but like put him in the fucking bulletproof vest with the white skull on it. You know oh Listen, we all know who needs to get punished that one fucking crooked cop today. He puts a dude's hand and burning

That was crazy and listen that commissioner who comes in he's like what the fuck that was assault He's like no, this is assault. I love this commissioner. He's deader than dead next week I think he's like I mean nobody's ever been more dead than this guy This guy might be more dead than the fucking penguins apprentice. It's crazy. How dead the commissioner is dead, then get dead mother in a Z-Liner, old Z-Liner line right there. Do you think the commissioner is more dead or the fucking cop who's always the dirty cop that's always in the back?

I think the commissioner, because I could see, listen, I would like to see that cop get his, but I could see him being a recurring character coming back in season two and causing trouble for Matt. Maybe being like the right-hand man or the top of the anti-vigilante task force. He could become like a one beat a buck basically. Yes.

Or be replaced buck at some point. I can, yeah. Buck might be getting it. Yeah. Kingpins first associate, I think gets it towards the first end of the first season, so I could see something like that happening. Um, point Dexter and Matt, when they have their talk, Matt smashes his face in and then calls the garden and he's like, this guy's going crazy, smashes his

own face in. Here's a question to you, Clem. Do you think Matt knew that would get him out of gen pop and into like some kind of recovery? Was that Matt sneaky being like, I'm not going to get you out, you sick fuck, I don't care about you. But Matt's more conscious, maybe being like, I don't want someone to kill him, though. So boom, smash him. No one. Maybe that gets him out. I like that because I did think when he does it, somehow this is going to end up benefiting. And this is a limited knowledge of how bulls eye works. I kind of like that idea even more than I go to the next level.

It's his fucking tooth and guy's eye or something into his face. He's like, ah, and then he uses the scissors one half and a guy's back one half and a guy's forehead and the guys like falling down on the desk. Another crazy like blue light scene where they fade the blue light in on on him for the escape. And the escape you could tell is okay, things are going to come to a head at this event because you've got buck on the phone oh did he did he get locked up oh no he escaped and it's like oh no he's got to go warn wilson fisk um at the event daniel brushed off

his former boss talked more to bb yuric she talks to the commissioner and he's like you know he might have killed your uncle she's like yeah that's why I'm fucking here. That's why I'm doing all this shit Um, and we get more swordsmen randomly. What a random little Thing that wasn't really necessary in this season But it's fine I guess because you want to show that new york has a bunch of vigilantes not just daredevil He's one of them but both scenes with him. I've been like, uh, all right, I guess you were just trying to Inject a little mcu into the show. Yeah, I felt weird about that too. And listen, I've been like, all right, I guess you were just trying to inject a little MCU into the show. Yeah, I felt weird about that too. And listen, we've said a lot. I've said a lot of times

that I want to have these characters intermingle and even if it's like a tier seven character, I guess you could say. Might be nice. Yeah, might be generous. Yeah, I was kind of like, all right, like I don't like the swordsman from when we watched him in Hawkeye. Yeah, he's better in Hawkeye. I think for the tone of that show, he fit more because he was also played as such a red herring villain. We didn't know whose side he was on necessarily in this scene.

He's obviously as a vigilante. I think he's he's a good guy at this point. We know and Kingpin's kind of extorting him, but he's kind of OK with that. So gray area. Good guy. I don't know I'm just gonna call like it is to a little bit of a puss puss in this one. He's been a little bit of a puss puss Well, he doesn't have vera from egan this one very nice. He went to prison and now he's He's a chicken without his head. Did she I couldn't remember what happened to her. She went to prison

I'm almost positive at the end of that show Uh, she expected cate bishop to kind of like get her out of that Kate Bishop fucking close the police door on her and was like you're doing illegal shit go to prison mom I'm going I'm marrying Josh Allen fuck out of here yeah that's how the end of that movie went also apparently the new Haley Steinfeld movie is amazing it's Haley Steinfeld and Michael B Jordan called sinners it's like a vampire movie that takes place in Louisiana. I think it's like vampires on the bayou

and directed by Ryan Coogler, who we love from Black Panther, getting reviews off the charts. People are saying best movie of the year. So keep an eye out for that. I think it comes out this month or next month. I think it's this month though. Could be a week or two away. Then we've got Heather and Vanessa speaking at the event. Matt finally

shows up super late. He listens in on that Fisk and swordsman conversation, not listening to what Vanessa's are not listening to what you're saying. And especially when she's like, you're not listening to me. Are you? He's like, no, no, I'm listening. Immediately tunes out a meet like instantly tunes out. Have you ever gotten caught with that? Are you listening to me as you're not listening and you're just like, please don't ask me what you just said. Exactly.

I've been caught with it way more by teachers. Like I remember that in school, a teacher being like, Robbie, you're paying attention. And me being like, yeah, what were you talking about? You're like, did chromosomes in the uh, chromosomes in the cell wall? Like, I don't know. I don't know. Uh, Swordsman gets extorted. The cops brutality obviously shown with the, with the oil in the water.

And then Matt goes to talk to Fisk. They start dancing and Matt pulls the ballsiest of moves and fucking pulls Vanessa starts dancing with Vanessa then Heather's over there with Kingpin and then you see in the rafters Dex is there disguised as a cop or a prison guard he's got a gun fucking cocks it and Matt hears the bullet so he kind of tunes into that and jumps in front of Kingpin takes a bullet for his biggest enemy Wilson Wilson Fisk. Episode ends going to red on that awesome shot of Matt. I can't wait for the finale.

I hope the finale is long because it feels like they do still have a lot that they gotta wrap up in the final one, but really good penultimate episode. Like another one where this is just such an enjoyable show week to week. It's enjoyable to recap. It's enjoyable to watch.

It's enjoyable such an enjoyable show week to week. It's enjoyable to recap. It's enjoyable to watch. It's enjoyable to speculate about. It's everything I wanted out of the daredevil revival. Yes. Very good show. Um, again, I, I'm going to say it's probably going to end in the eights for me somewhere so far. We'll see what the finale is like. Uh, I will say if I see that that time for the final episode is less than an hour, I'm

going to go in thinking that there is going to be a secret episode. We talked about this already. My cousin texted me, my cousin's husband texted me, and he was like, there's so much to wrap up. Need that secret episode. It really cracked me up. And I mean, Bullseye calls it because what does Matt do? Heroes defend their worst enemies, right?

And he does that by taking the bullet for Kingpin. The red blood splash all over the white outfit was very cool. Almost like the painting. It's almost like he's wearing the painting now. And I like this and I want more of it in future Kingpin shows or whatever he's going to be in. Like him talking shit because he knows Matt could hear him. That's some diabolical shit. Just like the cheesesteak thing was right. And that's my favorite thing about Fisk is that he's so ruthless.

He has fucking. And so smart, you know, like it's refreshing to just have a really smart villain who's not constantly getting in his own way through ignorance or arrogance. And he will have those moments, of course, because he is a comic book villain. But for the most part, it feels like he's winning. You know, like, yeah, this whole season, the score is Kingpin 80, Daredevil 50 or something. You're like, we got a lot to overcome here.

And this is the best part. Even if Daredevil, he still, if even if Daredevil like moves up the chain, Kingpin has a bunch of powder kegs and Red Hook. He's just waiting to explode right now. Red Hook this, Red Hook that, Red Hook that. Still, we're has a bunch of powder kegs and Red Hook. He's just waiting to explode right now. I know Red Hook this Red Hook that Red Hook that still we're talking about the Red Hook project and getting it through and even Swordsman was happy about that. Like what's going on in Red

Hook? What's going on in the Taz? The Taz mission's going on in Red Hook. Yeah, that's what's going on down there right now. Oh and shout out Kamala into the WWE Hall of Fame like two weeks after we talk about him and got his name wrong a thousand times. We're like Kamala Kamala Kamala Kamala Kamala into the WWE Hall of Fame like two weeks after we talk about him and got his name wrong a thousand times we were like Kamala, Kamala, Kamala, Kamala, Kamala is going into the WWE Hall of Fame. Congrats to the legend. I have to say and I don't want this come over disrespectful I I never thought Kamala would be in the- Well I don't know what the threshold is. He's in the legacy wing. Well, I don't know what the threshold is. He's in the legacy wing.

I gotta say, it's not like a full induction. They put like legacy acts in every year where it's like, alright, these people were very important, but we're not gonna give them a full thing. So it was like him, Dory Funk, I think, and maybe someone else where it was like kind of an achievement award, if you will. And someone actually tweeted this at me. Like no disrespect to Kamala. It's Papa Shango in there because Papa Shango is around OK,

because I was and I think he went in. I think might have went in as the Godfather, which I was always more of a Papa Shango guy than the Godfather, but I'm almost almost 100% positive. He's in you know what was the big one years ago that kind of broke the threshold for a lot of people where we were going, all right,

then what makes WW Hall of Famers Coco Beware went in. And a lot of people were like, we love Coco Beware and don't get me wrong, but like he's a hall of Famer. And now it's kind of like, yeah, everyone's a hall of Famer. But, and then they're, they're doing different things to their inducting matches starting this year, which I love because the UFC does that for fights. And I always love like a legendary fight. Yeah, maybe the two guys in it aren't going to be Hall of Famers. But if that fight was one of the best fights ever, it deserves a spot in the record book somewhere

in the history. So this year, the first match they're inducting a very fitting one, Brett the Handman Hart, Stone Cold Steve Austin submission match WrestleMania 13. Yeah, then that's a no-brah. It's like at some point like they always say you're losing the recipes like at some point that the people that were alive for stuff or even the people that whose parents were life was

a toll about it. It's going to get lost in history. This prevents that a little bit like the Ricky Steamboat Randy Savage match. I don't know if I've ever even watched the whole thing, but that's all you fucking hear. It's like greatest match ever greatest match ever to be in that's going to be in there. No doubt about it. First fucking ballot I consider and listen like there's no just again notice for Kamala. It's like the Brooklyn Brawler is a jobber. He should be in the whole thing

because he was like the face of jobbers. But then there's other guys in that realm. Like did Hercules make it in? No, I would change. I don't think. Yeah. Warlord. I don't think Warlord is in. No, I don't think he's in either. Okay. I've listened. I love the Kamala gimmick. So that was the thing about it. So this is what I consider the W Hall of Fame. It's the basketball Hall of Fame. Right. The basketball fame, everyone fucking gets in it. So this is what I consider the W Hall of Fame. It's the basketball Hall of Fame, right? The basketball Hall of Fame, everyone fucking gets in it. And it's not only NBA basketball, it includes college.

So guys who were good in college but didn't do much in the pros, they could still make it. And at this point it's like, oh, Dwight Howard made it. Good for Dwight Howard. I couldn't care less, good for him. And if I ever go to Springfield, which means my life is in a bad place, from what I've heard, if you're in Springfield, Massachusetts, your life is not in a good place. So if I ever go there,

I'll go back to the whole thing. I'll tell you what I went like 20 years ago, it absolutely stumped. So damn. Yeah, it's been some way to do a physical WWE Hall of Fame that you could go to. I think that would be awesome. And like Stanford, basically WWE Museum. Yeah, that'd probably be where they would put it. Or maybe Florida. I could even see Florida because they have the performance center down there but yeah any kind of physical wwe museum would be awesome I know there is like I think there's a wrestling museum in Ohio and they have their own hall of fame and that includes collegiate wrestling and professional wrestling I think which is a bit strange like amateur wrestling and everything's included but I think Kurt Angle

got inducted there and stuff but yeah hopefully one hopefully one day I know, I mean, I'm going to WrestleMania in like two weeks. They basically do a mini museum at WWE world, like their con type setup. They'll put a bunch of memorabilia all over that place, which is cool to say. It's crazy. They don't have a physical one. I would have bet my life that they had a physical one. And yeah, Vince wasn't always known to, you know, care about wrestlers all that much. So it all that much. So I'm sure he was created under his watch, but I'm sure it wasn't given me the amount of love he was trying to cover up history not like showcase it.

He's like a wrestler's wrestler. Yes, exactly Get the basement boys in for the fucking induction of the the um of The the hall when it's built we're gonna be there. Yes around Absolutely, and I'll write from all this fucking plaque first Hashtag congrats Kamala this week And Next week, we'll be back for an absolutely loaded episode.
