it's not worth winning if you can't win hello everybody welcome back to the Cake Eaters podcast, your definitive Mighty Ducks podcast. My name is Brandon. I've got my co-host Heath with me. Howdy doody, neighbor Joe. And today we are continuing our deep dive into D1, the original Mighty Ducks. And so part of this, so for today's episode, we're to talk about uh in anticipation of game changers season one coming out espn slash disney did a uh they they have this uh documentary series called 30 for 30 where they do documentaries on sports events they did a like mock one it's like six six minutes long on the legend of the

flying V. This video is great, Brandon. It's just under six minutes and it's done in the most ridiculous way possible, I feel. It's very wink-wink too, right?

The best way to describe this video is both cheeky and fun because it's, that's fair. That's fair. It's a wink wink nod to all of the 30 for 30 documentaries, which are really great. Right? Like some of those, a lot of them are real good. And I've loved them all, but this really, they do a good job of kind of like the great nod to it and turning a hockey goal, which you have always had a lot of problems with, but they turn it into one of the most iconic hockey moments of all time, living up to the Minnesota Miracle Man legendary billing that bombay has you know and so we can kick this off brandon because when we when we come into this 30 for 30 video we have what i would call the voice of hockey at espn yeah well but before you jump ahead i just want to everybody that this it's like a six minute video

it's free on youtube if you go to youtube just google uh the legend of the flying V or 30 for 30 Mighty Ducks, any kind of combination of that, and it'll pop up. It's like just under six minutes, completely free, and that's what we're going to talk about. So sorry, go ahead. I just wanted to mention that everybody could watch it for free. I mean, it's important information, but we had a whole vibe going. No, I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding, Brandon. So, so we bring it in and we have what I would consider still the voice of hockey at ESPN and one of my favorite sports center anchors of all time. Oh, absolutely. Absolutely.

Oh man. She does some great calls. And I, she's always, she was always one of my favorite guests that would come on. I used to be really deep into ESPN radio when I was working at the warehouse. I used to work at a warehouse by myself. And so I listened to a lot of sports talk radio cause it didn't feel so alone. You know, I would just, you know, talk with a SVP and Rosillo in the afternoons. There you go. Anyway, anyways, so we got Linda Cohn. She kicks it off. You know, the mighty Ducks are looking strong. We get John

Bucciagras, who's another great SportsCenter anchor, another big hockey guy, right? For ESPN. We got Bucci saying the Ducks are looking fierce. We've got and mj on the pod they're talking about the ducks used to quack in the 90s brandon how adorable how quaint one of my favorite parts of it though and so linda tells us we're gonna rewind the clock back to 1992 your boy was six years old your brandon was maybe born yeah i would have been one years old okay okay that one year old status and so we're back we're 1992 and we're going to talk about the fly v and one of my favorite wrinkles brandon i know it was one of yours we get an interview with our girl rachel uh who was front row at the championship game. Yeah. So Rachel is some random girl that apparently was sitting.

It was front row center ice at the championship game between the primetime seating. And so it cuts to her in her kitchen with. We forgot to mention this entire 30 for 30 is presented by honey nut cheerios oh it's it is very obvious in the first half a second so it says presented by cheerios right right i think it's the first first thing you see is presented by cheerios but see we cut into rachel's kitchen and there's a gigantic box of honey nut cheerios set up right next to her daughter who later on it cuts to her daughter and her little tagline is second generation Mighty Duck super fan and that but see what like wow where where did we get Rachel where did Rachel come from first of all you know what that told me about rachel once again a plus plus two thumbs up gold star grading for brandon's

parenting corner because obviously she is influencing her daughter she's raising a second generation super fan and feeding her a well-balanced breakfast of honey nut cheerios like you you know who's not gonna have to worry about cholesterol like your boy that little girl she has no cholesterol issues thanks to those cheerios remember we talked about this if anything if anything she's gonna be worried about raising it you know yeah gonna get that it's gonna be too low god it's just it's great stuff that was one of my favorite moments and i saw that i had to pause it because it was just great. I was laughing way too hard. Then we also get...

I do want to say Rachel has a sick Mighty Ducks... Is it a snapback? It looks like a snapback, but it only shows the front. I'm assuming it's a snapback because it looked like she had the ponytail through. Yeah, that's what I assumed too. But yeah, it was a sick-ass hat. Oh, man.

Love that. But then we also flash over to hannah duggan megan megan megan duggan oh shoot i got the yeah yeah i got her name wrong in my sorry megan um uh she's uh was on the the 2018 u u.s women's uh national hockey team that won a gold medal shout out megan and legit hockey player and i'm assuming they brought her on because she mentions that she remembers listening to this the flying v uh in her dad's car on the radio going back to the ridiculous press coverage um it was on the radio on and not only was it on the radio, Brandon. I was going to say, I wonder if they brought her on because maybe she was from Minnesota,

but no, she's from Danvers, Massachusetts. So I don't know how she would have been able to listen to Minnesota peewee hockey on the radio. Maybe spending a holiday with family in the Twin Cities, Brandon? Maybe. I mean, I'm not going to call her a liar but you know if the shoe fits i love that we're still fact checking disney and espn away because you know disney owns espn now they're they're the network it all goes it all goes back to disney you know disney owns disney i i am fairly certain in this assessment, even though I've done no research on it, I'm pretty sure Disney owns at least 35% of the world. That's 100%.

They definitely own you. I'm pretty sure there's a barcode on your ass that says owned by Disney. There's not. I wish I was getting those paychecks, man. That would be nice. Yeah. They buy the podcast get us started but anyways so we have hand kind of keep calling me megan listening to this game

which is getting excellent press coverage she was glued to the radio wow because i know that when i'm in the car i'm like mom put on, put on the Pee Wee Hockey Tournament. Let's track down that channel. Put on the Pee Wee Hockey Tournament from 15 states over. I'm locked in. I saw on America's number one hockey publication that the Mighty Ducks are playing the Hawks. Put the radio call on, Mom.

So here's a question for you, Brandon. You thinking this is AM or FM radio? Oh, it's got to be AM, dude. Early 90s sports, peewee sports, it's AM for sure. Yeah, maybe like 7-15. Yeah, 7-15, the fan. Where you get all your Minnesota youth sports info. There we go on the fan. All right.

So we get an excellent radio call and then we see it shows Bombay getting the quack attack going. And this is a great moment in the clip because it goes Brady Bunch style squares and everyone is, the quack is building as new Brady Bunch style square face. And it's, we've got the ESPN anchors. We've got the game changers. We've got the former ducks. I mean, we've got the full cast of characters out there quacking up the store.

There are two big names missing from this 30 for 30 though. No Bombay. No Bombay. No Bombay. And still no Charlie. No, it's it, but we got some Averman. We got some Fulton.

We got Connie. We got the, you know, a lot of folks from the game changers in, you know, Steve Levy, Bucciaross and. And then, you know, a lot of folks from the game changers in, you know, Steve Levy, Bucci Gras and. And then Anson Carter was the other one that was in there.

And then of course, Megan and Megan and Rachel. And I do want to say Rachel in her little thing points out. She mentions that she was. She's center ice front row. She's watching the game and the flying V play came out of nowhere, which is, could not be more spot on because they don't mention it at all in the movie before they do it.

But wasn't the goal that she talked about against the Hawks? Cause Connie talked about the one against the Hawks where for this, cause she was like, after that um you know it tied the game yeah the flying v tied the game yeah yeah well i guess they still caught up but they they ran it once in a game before this so you sure did they yeah i'm pretty sure didn't they have two flying v's there wasn't maybe i'm just i thought they had more than one flying v but um possible but but they still came out of nowhere because nobody fucking mentioned it yeah and linda talks about that she gives us like the background we've got new kids on the block and a reluctant coach

um and then buchi starts talking about the the coach is a has a team filled with absolute benders and i had to ask you what this was when we were watching it brandon because i didn't know what a bender was what tell tell the fans what a bender in hockey is a bender is just a player that's that's terrible at skating you know they can't skate so literally everybody on the team yeah and and they like you said they also interview anson carter which i put in my notes i don't know who that is as a hockey player he's a former hockey player he played uh he played a bunch and then he he's uh he's like uh he's a uh color commentator now um he was he was working for nbc but now that now that NBC is not doing hockey anymore,

I think maybe he's with ESPN or he might be with TNT because those are the new ones that are doing hockey broadcast, but he's with one of them. So he's, he's a hockey. He's a former player to current broadcaster. Is, is he Shaq or is he Barkley? Meaning does he have a title or, or does he not? He's the, he's, he's more of a, like, did he win it He's more of a... Did he win a cup?

I don't think so. He might. Maybe he... He wasn't the best player. Maybe he snuck in a cup. Let's see. Wait, I had to call this out, though, because I don't know if you noticed.

He was drafted by the Quebec Nordiques, a.k.a. Colorado Avalanche. I love when the Avs have the throwback Nordiques uniforms. Those are slick. No, he hasn't. No Stanley Cup. I'm trying to think of what would be a good comparison. He's probably like um john stockton no he's not he's not he was never that good of a player oh more like uh probably like a nick van exel oh okay

like i had had a name for himself but you know it was always just like a six-man borderline starter. Okay. Middle-of-the-road player when he was playing. But while they're doing this, they're kind of talking about the montage of Bombay making the kids better. Did you notice in the montage that they showed them taking falls?

Yeah. He's coaching them to get better, and then they show the clip where they're he's teaching him to take falls so they kind of like contradicted but i thought that was great and then he comes in and says and he doubles down on it where he definitely had a madness to his method yeah he was fucking batshit crazy crazy putting him on rollerblades and then sticking him in a mall and watching him run over a poor lady yeah and and he and he calls out you know i definitely left some some questions in his mind um and and we've got steve levy even coming out i love that they brought out all these big guns you know i love steve levy calling the calling the shots at sports center too um but but he says everyone was rooting for him and then my

boy averman comes out and he says oh we were the duckmeisters did you love that or what i did i love a good copy guy you know because they because they show the velvet hammer, the velvet. Yeah. So that's it. And then and then Megan cuts in and she's talking about how much she loves Connie. Yeah. She does mention she says she loves Connie, especially when Connie goes, I'm not I'm no lady. I'm a duck, which doesn't happen again. Not to not to call you a liar, Megan, but that doesn't happen till the second movie.

Yeah. So. Get your fucking flying V facts straight, Megan. Yep. Yep. AKA Hannah in my brain for some reason. I'm sure she's a great person. She probably is.

I mean, we're getting her name wrong. We're calling her a liar. We're making enemies real quick here. Start boycotting the pot. No, Megan, you seemed really kind. Really kind. Congratulations on your gold medal. Yeah.

You've achieved so much more than we ever will. That's all you got to do in response to this podcast. You just post a picture of your gold medal. And we'll go find ourselves. So Connie comes in and she's just looking as delightful as ever and talks about, you know, throwing some bows and taking some fools out like Connie does. And Fulton says, talking about their winning streak, Fulton says, you know, we were on fire just like the net after my slap shot. Fulton, coming in hot with that yeah um and then steve levy comes in he's like um and so then they talk about like we're back in the championship game we've got the face-off between bombay and riley and steve levy let's show down oh you could cut

the tension with a skate brandon that's a little on the nose for me some Oh, you could cut the tension with a skate, Brandon. That's a little on the nose for me. You could tell they were trying to be as cheesy as possible with some of these lines. Yeah. It was great. Because then they cut to our boy, Nick, who I've been missing for sure. And he talks about bird versus bird. We've got a mean bird versus a nice bird.

And I think we do have to fact check Disney again, though, Brandon. Bird versus bird. We've got a mean bird versus a nice bird. And I think we do have to fact check Disney again, though, Brandon. Well, he says he says he doesn't see a mean bird versus a nice bird. He says like a nice predator, a nice bird versus like a super aggressive bird or something like that. But he throws a lot more words in there than just mean and nice you know nick and his vocabulary you know he's he's a great actor but you know and not to get too heavy with the fact checking but as we both know brandon birds aren't real so um obviously that was a lie and and as we move on i thought you were gonna say that the ducks are not nice which they aren't ducks are fucking

mean as shit ducks are mean as shit i wasn't approached them and also you're not supposed to feed them bread did you know that no yeah it fucks their stomach up yeah uh i wasn't expecting you to go to the i mean i should have i should have expected you to go to the birds aren't real that's that was that was a mistake on my part i should have got to stay woke fam the government eradicated all birds and turned them into spy drones so yep stay woke so anyways um we've got we got after nick talks about the the mean bird versus a nice bird we start we get averman talk about how they're just getting lit up the hawks are just lighting them up at the beginning of the game um and then bombay is like let's fly team um and you know connie mentions it was the goal that changed the momentum around tied it up four to four yeah we got the flying v coming coming you know booch is about. It's just we got all of a sudden out of nowhere,

an inverted V started flying at the hawks. And the normally good hawks just watched on as the duck swept through the zone. That's how he described it. Yeah. It wasn't as pretty as he made it sound. I made it nice and dramatic for the listeners out there. The only one who knows the truth behind the flying V, it's Bombay and his ducks.

They skip over the part where everybody except for Jesse commits an interference penalty. Because the goal, he rocked home that goal and it tied the game. And then I like this line from Bucci Grassford. He's like, oh, Knights of Columbus, he knocks it through. That's great stuff, man. That's a great call by Bucci. I don't know what it means you know like it's it's just like

it's just uh you know it's just like uh what's the like an exclamation oh okay yeah like instead of saying instead of just saying oh you know you throw on the knights of columbus too just is like uh you know oh to like instead of instead of saying oh shit yeah exactly yeah i've uh during quarantine i tried to make uh cat's pajamas into a negative thing by using it instead of kelly didn't like it very much but i'd get like something would go wrong i'd be like oh son of a cat's pajamas this is the worst see that's that's your problem you can't do son of a and cat's pajamas you're combining too many too many phrases if you just like stub your if you were just like stub your toe and then you just shout cat's pajamas that's what i normally do i just got excited to describe okay yeah yeah

but yeah i think that they could catch on oh yeah okay let's let's you heard it here first i'm setting the trend cat's pajamas use it instead of saying fuck yeah and knights of oh knights of columbus as a good thing when you get excited yes like oh knights of columbus my christmas packages just got here all right so anyways i gotta i gotta find my place again i just thought that knights of columbus cracked me up um and then but they talk about um in a game where anyone could win charlie is skating on the breakaway he gets pulled down from behind he gets a penalty the last opportunity to win before the shootout and i think that the kids talk about it a little bit here my notes notes started tailing off towards the end. But he shoots.

They actually show it clanging in. He scores. Oh, before he shoots and scores, Rachel, our girl, gets super, super excited about that triple deke. This is when it shows her daughter and describes her as the second generation super fan. Yeah, because Rachel gets pumped and she's like, Charlie hit us with the triple deke.

The famous triple deke. Just like his mentor, the Padawan has become the Jedi, Brandon. It's a beautiful moment. And so I wrote in the notes steve levy said it was cool that was cool averman and connie are all excited because it was a huge win for the ducks it it shows them celebrating and then i we're kind of gearing up towards the end but steve also says and they continue the streak two more quacking times. And it shows the paper of their win versus Germany and D2.

I don't know if you noticed that. Yeah. Which wasn't the championship game. That was like, like four games before the championship. It was like when they were doing the round Robin for seating. Yeah. Yeah.

That's how they played Germany. And then, and then they showed the unveiling of the ducks banner and your favorite movie d3 yeah the eden hall mighty ducks baby it wasn't they didn't win anything they just beat the varsity team in a scrimmage you know yes and we changed the name i guess winning a different championship doesn't continue your streak. Yeah. So, but, but then after that, they kind of, that was it for the 30 for 30 and it just, it jumps back. Yeah. Into the preview of the game changers. And it shows like MJ and Nick,

whether they do the quacking thing, right. And they, they talk through coach T saying, you know, if you're not good at hockey, don't bother after he cuts heaven and they show all that um and and they show bombay saying you have to do it for yourself um and then once again it ends with some whole lot of cheerios all up in your face yeah um and that's how it ends that was my biggest takeaway takeaway. It's like, man, this was definitely brought to us by Cheerios. Well, and then Cheerios played a big role in Game Changers too. There was product placement

It does make me excited for season two. know i'm excited for us to be able to uh to see what happens now that the we we need to see what where those cheerios what those cheerios are up to you what are they doing now we need an update on honey nut cheerios did they continue with the heart shapes mixed with the circles or did they go back to the tradition um number two we got to see what happened to the artists formerly known as the ducks versus the current ducks artists formerly known as the don't bother so i mean there's just a lot of a lot of up in the air so i'm kind of glad that we tracked this down from last year uh to re-watch in anticipation for next year's game changers. It was a good little documentary to

kind of show us the flying V again. It was just super cheesy. Would have been nice for Bombay and Charlie to kind of... I understand why Charlie... Because I'm assuming they filmed this while they were filming season one

of Game Changers. So it makes sense. Charlie wouldn't be there cause he had, he was filming something else, but where's Bombay Bombay, you know, too good for a little 30 for 30 Bombay. Number one, you know, in his contract, he's not fucking cutting promos. Okay. Like it is built in. He is there to act. He is there to have a storyline with

yeah he's there to do he's there to do three things he's he's there to play hockey coach kids and fuck moms i thought you were gonna say say eat, sleep, quack, repeat. That would have been better. I thought you were going to eat, sleep, quack. Oh, that would have been four. But like, wow, yours is great too. Yeah. In retrospect, I probably should have went with eat, sleep, quack, repeat. But, you know, I made my bed. Now I'm going to lie in it.

You've committed to what you've said there. So that was it. You know, that, that is all she wrote of the breakdown of this video. Brandon, how, how did it make you feel from, from start to beginning? I actually love this. I thought it was, like I said, cheeky and fun is the best way. Like it was super tongue in cheek. It made me laugh throughout. I love the sports center anchors taking it wildly seriously. The, the kids jumping in with their like excited fan boy lines,man anytime you can get a little bit of averman and connie you know connie podcast favorite i i always loved fulton too and banks i would have loved to see banks but like you know i love it or the fuck was gee yeah he should have been in there with

god like yeah he should have been there together their team forever i i enjoyed it though i thought it was yeah like you said nice cheeky kind of thing six minutes long no harm no foul um it's worth six minutes yeah six minutes to have them talk about because i love the 30 for 30s too right like with the bad boy pistons reggie versus the knicks right like all those were really great the rodman one um rick flair's yeah yeah they're 34 years old kid this was a solid like little you know tongue and cheek nod to those yeah yeah one thing i didn't know is bill simmons had a big part in 30 for 30 and like getting that going for espn yeah yeah yeah he was original uh yeah he was one of the original people back when he was doing what was it grantland for yeah oh man his his grantland

articles were like the bible for nba fans there for a while i mean that shit was excellent and that's why i'm such a big fan like i used to uh sit and wait for his articles to come out and just read them religiously and so when he got a podcast i was like oh fuck yeah and so i still i still listen to it uh religiously even yeah i never really got into simmons um he's a homer big time yeah um some people hate that too and a boston homer at that yeah i have a love hate relationship with boston so boston sports fans can be tricky but i i love it because like he also owns it when they're bad too right and so like he's and and like talks through his agony just like all of us just like you know just like me with the huskers which every Saturday in the fall is just

another beautiful masterpiece of just horrible football and how to how to lose winnable games that's what is Frost still there Frost oh listen and like my boy frost and i love scott frost and i will love him forever but he has been married to adrian martinez who once again could give a master class on how to lose games at the quarterback position he literally it's when nebraska had the ball tied against michigan with a chance to win the game and he fumbled it on the 30-yard line so Michigan could kick the game-winning field goal. Ridiculous. Ridiculous. Anyway, sorry. I didn't get into Husker football.

It's raw. It's fresh. I'm depressed. I know they fucking suck. I'm going to keep kneeling to you with Nebraska. Because I know they don't have them anymore. I forget which McCaffrey son you guys had, but you guys had a McCaffrey. Yeah, Luke McCaffrey.

He transferred. He was not a good quarterback, but they – I was going to say, did they ever kick the tire with Luke instead of Adrian? Yeah, they did for a little bit, but he couldn't throw the fucking football either, so it didn't help any. It just made matters worse. Where did he transfer to? I think he transferred to Louisville, but then he also, yeah,

but then he left. He's not on the team anymore. I don't even know. The thing that made me feel better was that. He's at Rice now. He went to Louisville and then Rice. Yeah. See, the thing that made me feel better about McCaffrey was that after he

transferred from Nebraska, he immediately transferred from the next school before playing. Anyways, yeah. I'm a sucker for the McCaffreys though. They're, you know, born and bred in Denver. Highlands Ranch.

Christian McCaffrey. Tomato fucking tomato. Christian McCaffrey is his brother. You got Christian, you got Dylan. But his dad Christian McCaffrey. Tomato fucking tomato. Christian McCaffrey is his brother. Playing for the Panthers. You got Christian. You got Dylan. Okay. But his dad is Steve, right?

No? No, Ed. Ed McCaffrey. Yeah. Ed McCaffrey. Bronco's legend. Bronco's legend. He's the head coach at the University of Northern Colorado now.

Oh, nice. And that's where Dylan. Dylan's the quarterback there. Ryan Williams Former Wayne State College Women's basketball coach Is the number one At wins I believe for

Or no that might be Colorado State I might have fucked that up Sorry Ryan Oh my gosh dude Let's see Luke I thought it was Luke's not starting at Rice either Yeah so anyways He's throwing the ball every once in a while I thought it was Liza Collin. Luke's not starting at Rice either.

Yeah. So, anyways. He's throwing the ball every once in a while, though. Long story short is, you know, I grew up since from the time I was one until 12 thinking that Nebraska just made the national championship every other year or four years in a row. It is not true, and it hasn't happened for a long time. So I get depressed on Saturdays, Brandon. It shouldn't be Michigan. It shouldn't be Michigan state.

They shouldn't be Oklahoma. They shouldn't be Purdue. They shouldn't be just can't, can't close the deal, man. No, no. You know, some people can't close. You can spit a lot of game, but you still go home alone. You know who they need? Who? Actually, hold on. Never mind. You know who they need?

They need Bombay to come in as a consultant, a special consultant. We need some fucking Minnesota Miracle Man magic to make the Huskers fly again. Yeah, that's exactly what I mean No one wants to hear me lament about the fucking Huskers Brandon We'll start a Husker spinoff podcast Here's me Be sad like literally

My new tradition on Sundays is Posting sad memes from Cornhusker memes about How I feel the next day after Nebraska Cancer asses kicked. Okay. And anyway, though, okay. 30 for 30. So, um, but yeah, I thought it was, it was enjoyable. It didn't really, you know, it didn't add anything that we didn't know already. Um, so I mean, it, I, I recommend it's worth six minutes to watch, but if you don't watch it, you're not missing anything.

One last question before we get out of the listeners hair with our nonsense. Do you think they go round two of the 30 for 30 with the knuckle puck? Ooh, like for to set up season two? Yes. like for to set up season two yes i would say yes but how i would say i would say as a betting man i will say no they're not going to do that um i will say it would be fun if they did but only if keenan was going to make a cameo in season two oh yeah if keenan makes it because keenan would be so good in that like fake 30 for 30 getting back into the character getting back into the knuckle puck he would he would absolutely knock it out of the park i bet it would be hilarious bring in the sports center anchors again bring in the kids

but like you said he would have to have some kind of like you know maybe he wouldn't i don't know but it would just be so fun to bring him in to talk about the knuckle puck setting season two up just like he was that shot was the star of you know the second movie at least it was my most memorable kind of like thing about the movies you always remember the knuckle puck on yeah the knuckle puck i i remember the thing i always remember more is he's a tag team the is a tag team yeah yeah tag team is plays when they're when they're uh playing street street hockey yeah the street hockey scene is the fucking best. I love that.

You're right. The street hockey scene is also great. But you have to remember, too, when Kenan was doing this, all that was coming out, and then Kenan Kell was coming out. So I was a big Kenan fan. Yeah.

When the Ducks were out there, because Kenan and Kell was great. I was more of a fan of Kell, though. You know, like him and his love for orange soda and stuff. Repair man, man, man, man, man, man. We used to call one of my buddies, shout out Josh Scherr, but we used to call him Scherr man, man, man, man, dude, man, man, man, man. Did the exact same thing. It's great stuff.

But I would be down for a second 30 for 30 of the knuckle puck. If, if you have Keenan and it doesn't have to be, he had literally, even if he just shows up for like 30 seconds, 30 second cameo. And just says it's knuckle puck time. Well, I don't, I wouldn't,

if he's only there for 30 seconds, but like, waste it, just throw his 30 second cameo away with him saying a, a line that they could pull from old footage. But again, again, Disney, let us bring us into the writing team on this because we're

setting you up. You get Keenan as a cameo in one of the season two episodes. You make the 30 for 30 of the knuckle puck with Keenan. Boom. Done. Printing money. Why are we not on the fucking writing team yet? Game over. Ratings through the roof squid game level ratings i never watched squid game did you watch squid game yeah yeah so you have to do it with subtitles the english it's at the point now

where i'm never going to do it so the english dub is mediocre at best and so if you the English dub is mediocre at best. And so if you, the English dub plus the subtitles, because the subtitles are closer to the Korean translation, right? And so I ended up kind of like you listened, it was a complex web in my brain, right? Because I'm listening to something, I'm reading something slightly different and then I'm watching the movie, but it was the best way to watch the show. Okay, gotcha. But it was a great

show. The fucking storyline was out of this world. But that's the kind of success we're looking at. Oh, yeah. If we're on the writing team. Yeah. Game Changers is Squid Game 2.0 Mighty Ducks version. Yes, absolutely. Success. That's whatucks version. Yes, absolutely.
