Episode Date: September 3, 2026

🚀 Our Show Is Trending is launching on Kickstarter September 22nd! We're excited to finally share what we've been working on.

The Russo Brothers are opening up about the massive challenge of bringing Marvel Studios' next Avengers movie together, including why production began before the screenplay was completely finished. On today's Kristian Harloff Show, we discuss whether this should actually concern MCU fans or if the Russos' filmmaking process could ultimately make Doomsday better. Joe and Anthony Russo are once again handling an enormous Marvel ensemble, this time bringing together characters from the Avengers, X-Men, Fantastic Four, and other corners of the MCU. The directors also address the pressure surrounding the movie and whether Avengers: Doomsday is supposed to "save" Marvel after the MCU's recent ups and downs. Can the Russo Brothers recreate the magic of Infinity War and Endgame? How will Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom factor into everything? And can Doomsday successfully bring together this many characters while still delivering the emotional moments fans expect from an Avengers movie? The biggest question today is whether Avengers: Doomsday beginning production without a finished script should worry Marvel fans. The Russos have successfully handled enormous MCU productions before, but Doomsday may be their biggest challenge yet. With Doctor Doom, the Avengers, Fantastic Four and X-Men all potentially colliding, the pressure is enormous. We're breaking down what the directors actually said, whether the unfinished screenplay is a legitimate red flag, and why the Russos believe their evolving approach to the script can actually help the movie. If you're a fan of Avengers: Doomsday, Doctor Doom, Robert Downey Jr., Russo Brothers, Avengers: Secret Wars, X-Men, Fantastic Four or the latest movie and television news, this episode is for you! #AvengersDoomsday #Avengers #DoctorDoom #RobertDowneyJr #RussoBrothers #AvengersSecretWars #Marvel #MarvelStudios #MCU #XMen #FantasticFour #WonderWoman #ZackSnyder #JamesGunn #DCU #HarryPotter #MovieNews #KristianHarloffShow  SPONSORS: CASH APP:  Download Cash App Today: https://capl.onelink.me/vFut/76rlxe00 #CashAppPod.   • Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

Holy moly what a show do we have today. I'm back. I was out yesterday and I'll talk about the screening that I saw, at least as much what I can say. The Rousseau's talk about shooting with an unfinished script, talking about trying to save the MCU and other things. There's a weird story about, like, Gallagadot's been doing a lot of press. And so she brought up the fact that she'll come back when Zach Snyder comes back

and that obviously got some people talking. And then you got the Harry Potter trailer. But let's say what it is. Kevin Smets is back guys. And he's going to play his games today. He can play his little games. And we're going to have a good time with me, him, and Chris Carr. See, can they win the week?

Let's do it. Let's talk about everything and anything. It's a Christian Arnold Show here today on this Thursday. Here we go. Did you shit in there? Oh man, oh man, what a day it is. What a day it is in general. You get a lot of cool stuff to talk about.

But man, it's just the peeps I get to hang out with today. And let's start with Chris. So excited. I saw from the community tab I got to be a Smets today. I'm pumped. I know. And speaking of which, ladies and gentlemen, making his triumph and return. Hi.

Oh, my gosh. He's back. How's everybody doing? I'm here. It's about time. About time I could defend myself here after. weeks of slander, but we'll get to that. There's no slander, just opinions.

Do you think you're going to be on the screen today or halfway off the screen? What do you think? Okay, hold on. I always forget how to do this. Here we go again already. Do we have to be over here? Over here. Right there.

Nope. No, no, right there. Nope. Back a little bit. Nope. Right there. I don't understand. Listen, again, what it shows me on my thing is completely different to what you guys see.

It's massively. So this looks good right now because to me it looks like I'm Spider-Man. Well, if you scoot just a little bit. I'm not even kidding. Right there. That's perfect. I'm not even kidding. Now I know the,

now I know. Okay. I am not messing. I have a little bit for me. Yes. Yeah. Thank you. Appreciate it.

So we, it's a Kevin. And this just does show we're going to get into it. But it does show the kind of competitor that Kevin Smith says, he's like, hey, is the goal too far out of reach? Because I want to,

I want to win it on my first day back. And I said, it's definitely in reach. Roka is, in the lead at the moment, but it's, it's a beatable goal. So both Chris Carr, last time they were on together, they won. So we'll see. And I was asking you about how the, I think we're like only like 113 away from 2000 now.

It's pretty nuts. So I had a really good, I had a really good day in generally yesterday in regards to the campaign and the pilot. Some stuff that I can talk about, stuff I can't and stuff that I hopefully will be able to talk about real soon. but we have some really great news all the way around with everything that's going on with it. But I will say that we're doing pretty good and you guys have been supporting us. I can't even thank you enough. And I just want to show, once again, as Kevin mentioned beforehand, currently right now, the pilot, I'm going to look, the campaign rather for the pilot, is currently at 1895.

Wow. That was a good year, 1895. Do you ever tell you that story? That's a that's a Mark Riley one of my favorite Mark Riley stories when he was working at California Pizza Kitchen. No. And and he and George Carlin came in and, and he like ordered something and Riley said that's, that's 1891. And he goes, oh, good year, good year. And it's such a Carlin kind of.

That's like a dad joke. I always say whenever it's a year and I get the total like Ralph Servants, I'll always be like, that was a good year. are you trying for. Cool, I'll see you later. But anyway, so what I would love to do is especially what a conquering hero moment would be for Smets on two sides of things. One of the one, the week, obviously,

but two, if we could hit 2,000 followers by the time that this show is over today, and I can tell you that for people who are wondering, again, if everybody who watches this show today or anybody who's in the chat right now, if you watch this show, whatever,

whatever between like 10 to like 25,000, thousand views per episode collectively on on these episodes per day. If everybody clicked, notify me on that link, we would be in such a position because our goal is on day one, when we launched on September 22nd, we want Kickstarter to push us into the projects we love page. We want, like, you do that and then more people besides just our community will see the campaign. So we hope that you guys will do that today. And PLD and myself, I'll do it first, PLD, but we're going to be throughout the entire episode, we will be putting the link in the description.

Oh, sorry, it's in the description in the chat. And it's right there. And if you head on over there, just click that button. The first goal right now is to hit 1900. That's the first goal. Once we hit 1900, then we aim for 2000, which hopefully we'll get today. So we're going to do that. When Smets was away, we did announce.

that. Oh, did we? We announced something? I didn't know about this. You didn't hear anything about this, I'm assuming. Not even with your numerous chats with Saul and PLD? Listen, Saul and PLD just updated me on shit because I wasn't able to watch for a month. But let me just real quick.

I was gone on a trip, which is great. And then I came back and I told Christian, like I ended up, like I was working basically, technically almost three jobs at once. So I didn't have any. So I had to be away for like a month. So it's good to be back. And it's good to be back. with Chris too. But I haven't been

able to watch because I'm not doing the shorts. I haven't been able to watch any of these shows. So thankfully Saul is a good fan and P&D and they were alerting me on the massive disrespect that was going on over the Well, we'll talk about that part after. We're going to talk about why you were getting disrespect. Because we announced it that

in day one, if we get this thing funded in day one, we're going to bring back a 16 person tournament to which one of the big announcements is that our first confirmed competitor is sitting right next to me. But not Kevin Smets.

It's Chris Carr. We got a rookie. Chris Carr is going to be in the tournament. 16 person tournament. If it goes, that's part one. And amazingly, if Chris Carr wins four years later, Christian will forget about it. Continue.

Maybe not. And then. Chris, it'll all make sense when I get. We'll see if we get an eight person, potentially that we just get a live event. There's a lot of different scenarios, one way or another, if it gets fun, to how the Shmodan will come.

back. Chris will be awesome by the way. Like as far as like, character work and everything's gear. But like just character work? Like you got a bona fide actress right here. 100%. You want to be a good guy or a bad guy, Chris? I already have my idea. I already know. I already know.

I've already, I've already, I've been thinking about it. I already know. And I'll, I can put it in the private chat. And you tell me if you're, first of all, here's my idea. And you tell me if you like it. Okay. I'm excited. Let's see. Oh my gosh.

What? Didn't do that yet. She hasn't written anything yet. There it is. Now it is. Oh. Right? Yeah.

Yeah. I feel like that. And because it would be pretty glorious all the way around. What do you think? Peel. It's a little weird that you want her to wear a hoodie and be color the smashette. But I'm fine with it. Let's go.

Piltzy pop into the bubble. How great would that be? That would be phenomenal. Right. I love it. If you debut. If my name is a smashette, Do I have to do the toad voice the whole time?

Everything is just going to be me being like, I love trivia. Let's go. Yes. Well, and then so that's that. And then I also, you know, there was something, I was able to, I confirmed two rookies.

Well, to me, one to the public. And the one rookie is Chris Carr. I confirmed another rookie who will debut during the live stream. And then there's other talk about other people who come in. And everybody started talking about Kalinowski. and Smets. What's going to happen with Kalinowski? What's going to happen with Smets? Are they going to play each other in their geekdom? Are they going to play each other in the tournament? Are they going to be in the tournament? What's the deal? So we have made no announcements for either. But then that conversation, because there's a rabid smasher fan in here. It keeps coming in and saying that, just saying that Kevin would annihilate Kalinowski if they played again in their fourth potential matchup if they faced each other. And people just asked certain. opinions. Roka thought Kalinowski would win or could win. I said

just don't count Kalinowski out. Don't count them out. People just count them out and disregard them. PLD has thought. But see here's again, Christian. What did Sturger think? But you're not going to say that because Sturger picked me. She said you. All right. See? You just, you want to play. You want to play it. You want to play the victim. You want to play the victim. I love

being the underdog. I was never the underdog after I. I started winning. Well, but so. FLD, you have something to say, I want to say, hey, am I the Smashers fan you're talking about who keeps popping in?

That might be it. No. But secondly, Christian, let's call you out for what it is. You didn't say give count count, don't count.

Oh, come on. And you said, can I talk now? Let me talk. And if I could cut off, Christian, I'll sign the fuck off. Now listen,

no more customer. Here's the thing. I love you, Christian. You're the reason I mean, the reason I came back from cancer is my family, obviously, and the great doctors. But you had that great target. You had that great dangling carrot, comeback at spectacular. And that, a lot of mindset, it goes through going through chemo and going through cancer battles. So I had that like the bulletin board, right?

So here's the thing, though. You're Vince McMahon. Mike Kalanowski is your John Cena. Mike Kalanowski is your golden goose. I was always CM Punk and here's why. Corruption, you created corruption. You created the corruption tournament. You created the killer, Mike Kalanowski.

Kalinowski got all of his accolades on his own. I get that. But he was your creation. I came in, the only thing you gave me was the name. I wanted to be the assassin, I think. But I came in with the character, with the hoodie, with Kaiser, with the dungeon. That was all homegrown. I was an indie.

I was CM Punk. So you're always going to have this love and you're always going to back up the persona that you created. It's not true. because you forgot you said that we were tied at one and one do you remember when you first do you remember when you first do you remember when you first walked in with the microphone I said put that down and give it to Kaiser well Kaiser knew he was coming like he was going to be my manager

yeah we saw you because you we were mutual friends long time before yes okay listen I'm not saying you had nothing to do with the dungeon success creating that you helped it but like we came in so I feel like in this situation you have your John Cena and I'm see him pump and the disrespect over the last couple weeks. And by the way, I'm kind of, if you need that, I'm kind of K Fabian in here. Let me just be sure. If you need that to get yourself motivated even more to use that in the storyline, you should. Of course, because if I had a chip on my shoulder before, what do you think it's

going to happen now? Let me just show you, by the way, Chris. So this, this what you're seeing right now is what my life was every day for years. Not, and not just with Smith's, like with, I was actually a model competitor. I know, you are. You, you, I really, I really, I really, I, I really, I, As much as I break your chops, you were super easy to work with. You really were. And as one of the top guys, that's not an easy thing to say. But you work. But that's like, this is how intense it would get with everyone.

And then we don't even know yet. We don't even know if they're playing. Either one of them are playing. And they're still, yeah. Here's the thing. Okay. I just have a couple more things than I'm going to be done with this. Go on.

Okay. Mike gets all the respect in the world for being in double leagues. Like Mikey two belts. No one was a bigger fan of Mike coming in than I was when I came in. Like I was a huge fan of him. So I understand it was very hard to do it. But like people seem to forget. And I'm not trying to use this cancer thing as a crutch. And my favorite line of all of last week or two weeks ago was when Mike said, well, if he comes back, he's not allowed to talk about cancer to make me look bad. The most tone deaf sentence I've ever heard, he's not allowed to talk about cancer to make me look bad. What a heel comment. What a heel comment. That was great.

By the way, I love Mike. Again, I'm trying. I'm more like, I'm in K-Fave mode right here. But Mike gets all that respect. But I came back from fucking chemotherapy, which I don't know if anybody has had it before in the chat. It's taken away how good you were, man.

No, no. It messes with your mind. It did. You're taking it away. You put your family's life on the line. I never said, what, what I said,

You put your family's life. They disregarded. They disregarded what Mike was able to do. Like, do you know, You, would you agree that it is very, I couldn't do these singles on my IT? No, no, wait.

Would you agree that it is very hard to defend the inter, the, the, the inter-eatom championship? I've never done it. It's very hard. Right. He did it three times. Yeah. When I was gone.

When I was gone, when I was fighting cancer. Sure. A hundred percent, but I'm, it would have happened if I was there. Okay. All right. Well, look, Parker. Shit. I got the final thing.

I had to start literally from scratch. After 18 months away, the chemo, wipes out your retention, wipes out your memory, plus you added 72 new movies. I started from scratch, and I made it all the way back, and I won the title back.

That's what I did. And there was no, you didn't mention any of that. Like, it was like such a big deal for that to happen. And my last thing, he's your John Sina. And this is one thing.

And I think it's because you knew already it wasn't coming back. I think he's more Sean Michaels. Wouldn't you? Star Wars celebration. This is why I have chips on my shoulder. And why, if it comes back, by the way,

put him on notice. I will be back stronger than ever before. And so if that means that these competitors are too afraid to come back because of their legacy or whatever, that's fine. But if it comes back and I have to defend my title, I'm going to defend it because I never did. And people talk shit about that. So I will do that. And finally, guys, now it's the last thing? Yeah, yeah.

Oh, no. Okay. That was the last thing. Okay. So, guys, so Smetz is officially back. He did a tight 15 on why he was the best inner geekton better of all time. Well, I never let my final thing to chip on my shoulder and why he's your John Cena. When I won the title, when I came back from King's,

cancer and won the title. It was on tape delay. You guys were all at Star Wars Celebration. And that whole weekend when it aired, you always aired it on Friday, you and Mike, no one tweeted about it. That hurt me to this day. So if I come back, I will legit win it all. And it's because of that bulletin board material I've had for like five years. No one tweeted about it when I came back and I won. Because I think you were over and I get it. Because like you were dealing with skybound and I think it wasn't coming back and we didn't know yet. But that like hurt me. Oh, when you want it, when you wanted at the end. No one tweeted about it.

But I don't even tweeted out about anything. I wasn't just about your match. But other than that, I love you, Christian. We're still cool. Sounds like it. But you're back. I'm not coming back to, yeah, I'm not back. We don't know yet. We don't know about the Smodown stuff.

But this is my point to everybody out there. By the way, during that whole diatribe, we got now. We now. We now have 1,900 followers on Kickstarter. trying to get us 2000. That was K-Fave a little bit. 100, 100 away from hitting that goal of 2000. And remember this. When we were on last week with Chris and I, we were trying to get to like a thousand.

And I think we had a really good day. We hit 800 by the end of the day or something, whatever it was. And that was, so since last Wednesday, now we're close to almost 1,200 new people. So just hit that button, get notified. All right, we got a lot to discuss in the news today. And this, I actually thought of Chris Carr when this topic came up about the Rousseau's. But I will say, Chris, you know, yesterday I had this kind of fun debate. I went and I saw Practical Magic 2.

You know, I had never seen Practical Magic 1 before. And I watched it with. Oh. Yeah, I watched it with Sam the other day. I watched it with Part 1. I watched Part 1 with her on Monday, went and saw the sequel on Tuesday. So obviously, fresh in my mind. can't really talk much about it

except the fact that I enjoyed it. I think it was sometimes like out they just made that because everybody else is making nostalgia movies. They had a story. They had the emotion. The chemistry is still there and there was some moments and it was nice to see Sandra Bullock

back doing just being back being a movie star, which was cool in general. But it was a good, it was a good film. But anyway, I got into a conversation with this a fellow critic there. We'd always discuss kind of box office bets and things that we talk about.

And my friend Brandon, and we were going back and forth and we started talking about. I said, look, my doomsday prediction isn't as crazy, right? He goes, ah, it's going to top out of like 1.3, 1.4. I said, you're crazy. I said, you're crazy. At this point with this hype now, now, I don't know where you stand, Chris, because initially, before the hype started, you didn't even think he was going to hit a billion, but I think your opinion has changed on that.

Maybe not. But where do you stand on that? right now. I still think it's going to do fine. I say fine. That's a great number. That's a great number. I don't think it's going to be this like huge box office blowout still. And that's just me speaking from my own level of hype. And I know everyone is so over me talking about how I'm not excited about this movie. Like after seeing Spider-Man, after seeing all these other things, I don't, I still just don't really care. And I say this is somebody who's a huge comic book fan of just, I know, I'm seated. I know I'm going to see it.

Right. But I still don't have that level of enthusiasm for this movie. And I hope that's the last time you had. What was the last time you had a lot of enthusiasm for an- Spider-Man, right? Was it? Oh, I'm so sorry. My sound cut out.

What? I was just curious what your last, this is very interesting. So what was your last real, like, big enthusiasm for a movie for MCU? Spider-Man. Spider-Man, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, because that's my, that's my boy. I love him.

Right. And I was so excited for Fantastic Four. And then I'm one of the people who saw that and went, I like some of the swings you took. This movie isn't for me. So that's where it turned off. That's where I'm curious where this like, because Fantastic is a huge part of the movies.

But you would say that the hype, not your personal hype, Chris, but the hype is certainly bigger for Avengers Doomsday than it was Fantastic Four. People are getting very excited about it. But I also still think we are also in a stage, though, where yes, everyone gets really excited about these movies for the most part. But then I feel like, like everyone then becomes hypercritical of them as well.

Sure. And so I don't know if this is also speaking from our own little movie bubble. When I talk to people who are not into these kinds of movies typically who have been like, oh, yeah, Marvel's fun, but they don't run to see them. Most of the other people I know who are outside of like the movie news sphere or the kind of geekdom sphere are just like, oh, yeah, I don't know. I'll probably wait until it's on streaming. So that's where I'm still a little just like, I don't know if the hype is just from fans.

I'm talking to because when I talk to my quote unquote up their own ass and a file friends, they're not regular. So. Yeah. Yeah. In the muggles, you know. Yeah, right. Right.

Well, here's the thing is that I agree with you that that when people say, oh, you see comic book movies, uh, there's no fatigue. Well, look at Spider-Man. Look at this. And I point to your argument of what you just made there. However, I don't put doomsday and Avengers in that category because, yeah, sure. maybe the muggles, as you say, are not as aware today. But as we get closer to release, and by the way, the ticket sales have been through the roof already.

So clearly some of them are paying attention to it. But the IP of Avengers is strong. And the other side is that the hype and the narrative has changed around Marvel because of Spider-Man. Regardless, and I'm with everybody, Spider-Man and Batman are different animals. They are. I understand that. But it doesn't change the, what have you done for me lately? mentality that every movie fan certainly does. And right now, Marvel is on a winning streak.

And they've been on winning streaks before. And then their next movie's been foof. If this one gets that hype and builds towards it, that's why I think if you look at the people wanting to go see the movies in December. But you dodged my question, no. I'm not going to let you get away, Chris, is that does it make a bill? Does it make one billion? Because you said no. I think it'll probably make a billion. Okay. I think it'll cross over that line because of these ticket sales. because of that stuff. I still, in my heart of hearts, it's a, yeah, maybe. But I, when I look at the data, it's a, sure, I think that's a very plausible thing. I think that's absolutely something that can happen here. I just personally am still of that mindset of, I won't be surprised if it doesn't,

because if word of mouth gets out, and this isn't an incredible film, I could see people not going, you know? Yeah, and Kevin, where do you stand with all this? I mean, I kind of like, I always thought that, because I remember doing the short months ago, this is why I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm always going to be your receipts guy because, like, we did a short where you were talking about it could hit $3 billion. That's a huge number. Who's in the $3 billion? No one? No.

The only movie that could do it, maybe, depending on the kind of opening weekend it has, is the re-release of endgame if it does some kind of astronomical number of like $200 million. Well, apparently the Rousseau say it's required watching, right? Right. I hate that sense. But yeah, I mean, it's like, here's the thing, though. Remember there was like rumors of like reshoots and then everybody was turning on to Avengers Doomsday? Yeah, we're going to talk about that in a second. Okay, I didn't know if that's part of that story.

Sorry, I didn't do my homework. But if, so if it, if it, here's the chance you can do it. Christian, I believe that that is very, I hope it happens for you personally because I love you. And that would get like, you called it and there'll be receipts everywhere. You'll be able to say it. Yeah. But the problem is if it's a movie that's even the least bit divisive or whatever. I'm with you.

I'm with you. Then there's no way. So it has to be like Godfather part two level of like greatness. It's got to be like what's Spider, what's going on with Spider-Man? It's like people have to keep rushing back to the theater, wanting to see it, and the benefit that it has over Spider-Man,

and one of the few things. Yeah, that's fine. The benefit that it does have over it is that we know we're getting another Spider-Man at some point. Yeah, yeah. Right? We know we're getting the sequel to this movie next year. So that is going to be like, oh, okay, well, I can see this again in the theater now because the sequel's coming out next year.

I can go see it again and again and again and now get hyped up for it. I'm back. I was such a big Marvel fan at one point and I just was not excited anymore. I'm excited again now. If you can get that excitement and you can almost use, you know, the, you're bringing it back to life a little bit more. I think that you can really do something here. But look, what Spider-Man did. no one saw that coming.

I thought it was going to top out at 1.8, which is a huge number. And it's at what, 2.3 now? My question is, why, if that's such a good movie and everyone's loving it, Christian, why isn't that hitting $3 billion then? I'm just being devil's advocate right now. 100%.

Yeah. I mean, look, because the easy answer is, it's not easy to make $3 billion. And it's also, you know, whatever, how many times it's been in the, in how many theaters it's been in, repeat viewing, I mean, and the kind of competition that it had. That's another thing, everyone I talked to.

I'm starting to be in the minority of this, but I talk to other people who certainly think that Dune 3 is going to hit a billion like Roka said. I don't think that's possible. Dune 3? Dune 3. I think, the runtime of alone, right? Like, it's too long.

I think runtime, dark sci-fi movie, rated R. I think that's Look, the last one made like seven or 800 million Which is great for a rated-d-ar sci-fi movie But it wasn't going up against Doomsday on the same day You know? But anyway, let's talk, let's go back to Doomsday And I want to read this article

And I want to get you guys thoughts on this And here it is So the Russo's Talked about directing on shooting with an unfinished script saving the MCU and an unexpected inspiration. The Rousseau has discussed shooting Doomsday with an unfinished script, whether they're setting out to save the MCU

and their unexpected source of inspiration for the movie. After years of debate over whether the MCU can recapture the magic of the Infinity Saga, Joe and Anthony Rousseau are setting out to end the hit and miss Multiverse saga in style with Doomsday and Secret Wars. According to Anthony Rousseau, an interview with AP News,

Marvel Studios' next Avengers movies will push the limits of ensemble storytelling further than anything the brothers have attempted before. Now, of course, when they're bringing together the Avengers, X-Men, Fantastic Four, the first time, it's hardly surprising to learn that the movie is an even bigger challenge than the Captain America's Civil War and Avengers Endgame. Since the MCU is this massive experiment in how vast, how much scope can Ensemble really have. If we have a taste in talent for ensemble storytelling, we're certainly pushing ourselves further than we have before. Russo brothers,

who are soft prepping for Seeky Wars, are taking this workload in their stride. And Joe explains, when you're doing one of these movies, it's the hardest thing you've ever done. When you're doing two of them, it's almost inconceivable. Inconceivable, but it's the second time around that we're doing two back-to-back. The Rousseau's, their return has inevitably raised expectations that Dune's Day can help put the MCU back on track following several years of increasingly mixed reactions to Marvel's output. It's likely what Kevin Feige is hoping for, but don't expect the Rousseau's to take responsibility for fixing the entire MCU.

It's great questions. Part of the unique challenge, the thing that Joe and I have always appreciated about our collaboration with Marvel is our job isn't to answer for the entirety of the MCU. We intersect in a very specific way. It's the intersection, which is where we can sort of make sense of things. The production itself has also presented a share of challenges. After the movie shipped from an Avengers Kang Dynasty to Doomsday, the Russo started shooting with an unfinished script.

We always view the script as a living organism. We're improvisation-based, rehearsal-based directors. We like to see what the actors bring to the characters, and sometimes you don't get the actors until a few days or a few weeks before you shoot them, And a lot of them, that's when the magic happens. Interesting, the filmmakers have turned to a genre far removed from superheroes for inspiration. For the Russo's, the Western has always provided the perfect blueprint for combining enormous scale with quieter, more intimate character moments. And Sergio Leone's once upon a time in the West was key, according to Anthony.

So a little more about that on the Western side of things. But I thought of you, Chris, when I was checking this out, because when they said we were shooting was an unfinished script, And I went and I went oh Chris Carr right now is going see. But to be fair though, that's not that weird frankly. This kind of thing happens all the time because and this is where I'm going to sound so hypocritical and the chat's going to be like, see Chris, this is how get over yourselves. Go touch grass. So a lot of times movies. I'm going to be spicy too today.

I don't have time for anyone's nonsense. It's all right. It's hot. Super hot. Yeah. Yeah. We've got feelings today, y'all. But a lot of times, scripts aren't worked out, okay?

Particularly when you are shifting from something like, you know, all of the Khan Dynasty stuff to this movie instead. We constantly have people doing rewrites, reshoots, that sort of thing. And now the example I'm going to give you is of a very terrible movie. But when we had that Craven the Hunter film coming out and everyone was talking about how good it looked at CinemaCon, I knew friends who were working on finishing the scripts and doing. punchups of that. You know, a lot of times what we're seeing is, is not the full complete picture. And making a movie is incredibly difficult, and there's a lot of moving parts. So it's totally

normal that they didn't have a completed script. Also, Marvel does use a lot of their improvised moments. A lot of your favorite lines are things that the cast came up with on the fly. So this kind of method makes sense. However, I can see why this is something where you go, did you know what you were going to do going into this, though? Did you at least have an idea of the end in sight, because that's more important than the finalized actual lines and everything, just basically having that kind of like one, two, three step here of what you're going to do. Yeah. I just wonder when the first leaked reviews or people who've seen it and those types of things, that's when I'm going to get really interesting. But I think that

it's, they will be, regardless if they want to be or not, if this movie does, even if it hits two billion it's a massive success right and it's it goes two billion and it's a massive success um people are going to say the inevitable which is the russo's back they saved the mccu it's they're they're going to they're going to do it and it's probably one of the reasons people don't forget marvel was hesitant to bring them back because i think because of that i think that you're remember there was like why aren't the rousseau's coming back for these avengers movies why they were like they were talking about so many different people coming back for the for the avengers Why had the Russo coming back too?

He was going to do Kang Dynasty. Yeah, but they weren't, it wasn't even coming back. He was going to be one of his, well, I guess coming back from Shung Chi. Yeah, sure, sure. But, you know, the fact that the Russo's had all this crazy success. And then I remember them asking the Russo's like, well, we haven't been asked. And then clearly they had to say, all right, well, I guess we need the Russo's. So they did need the Russo's.

You know, they, they, they, if the Russo's have not missed in Marvel, they have not missed. like they are they are perfect in marvel not only with box office but with critics and fans they haven't missed so they're 100% like my uh completion answers in the finale of the schmodeown 100% continue which you didn't remember either did you ever compete in this brother are you any good i probably not because i wouldn't know i wouldn't let i wouldn't let a sleeveless shirt person hey listen okay first of all you know you know The funny thing you say about that, too, but it's all the process. Like, one of the most iconic lines in all of Endgame was discovered in the edit.

I did not push that. I didn't do that. I swear. That's not PLD. That's got to be Luke. PLD. No, it was PLD. He's laughing his ass off like he's in a tub in Tropic Thunder.

Yeah. The iconic line, I am Iron Man, was discovered in the edit. That was not. They were like, hey, they were editing it. And they were like, originally he was just going to snap. And then someone was like, hey, you don't be funny. Because there's a story that came up. We've had this conversation.

No, I have been off the show. We've had this conversation. No, and we literally had the same conversation. What happened was they shot it. You're mixing me up. They shot it with the ending of him saying whatever he said. And they didn't, they said, oh, and they had him come back. Yeah, he had to do reshoots and he didn't want to come back.

They had to convince him to come to the reshoots and they told him, you're going to say, you're going to say, I am Iron Man line. Yeah. And he didn't, he didn't think that it would work. and then he did. Yeah, I mean, that wasn't in the script. That's what I'm saying. It's like with these.

Oh, initially. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's what I'm trying to say. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, either way, we're going to find out sooner than later because, I mean, it's September, for God's sakes, which is crazy. And the end game re-release comes out this month. And then that will also show, and that's another point that we haven't made yet,

regardless of the required viewing comment, it's going to do very well. And depending on what the actual footage is and how it ties into it. it that could also start to benefit this movie and not just in the theater because I think the smart play and what they're going to do is they're going to release it on Disney Plus before the movie comes out the end game re-release that is very smart because that now gets people maybe the people that you were talking about initially Chris right those people who were like oh I liked end game but I don't really yeah whatever and then it's like well watch this and look at this scene I think people do need that reminder of wasn't this so cool in theaters to experience that

all together. And to be clear, too, because, shockingly, the internet lacks nuance. When I say I'm not hyped about a movie, it doesn't mean that I want it to fail. I'm just not excited at this point in time. I hope so much when I'm in that theater, I'm losing my goddamn mind. I hope that I am just like on my feet at moments, you know? You don't, you don't strike me as somebody who's just going to be like this. Yeah. No. I even went into like, you guys know how much I dislike the Flash. Going into that movie, I was like, come on, Michael Keaton. Come on. Give me something amazing. go let's see something cool. How much I love Chris and what I imagine when she comes home.

Remember the movie Enchanted? Enchanted? Yes. With all the cartoon birds and stuff. I feel like when she comes home, like there's cartoon birds and they lift up the thing. Like she's like she's not going to sit there. She's not going to be like this in the movie theater.

She's going to have birds flying over, handing her popcorn and like eating your ear. Yeah. Yeah. That's how Logan tells people I start my day. I feel like Logan starts this day like that. No, he's like the grumpy cat to me. Is he? Well, not when he's watching.

Not when he's watching Moana. No, no, he's a sweet little angel baby. Right, right. He's a grumpy boy. Well, curious what you guys think about all of this. What do you think about the Russo's coming back? What do you think about the comments that they made? And what do you think about Kevin bitching so much that he doesn't think

that Mike could beat him in their next match? We'll talk about that and more. Speaking of Doom, speaking of the Avengers, can tell you guys about what I think. When it comes to both Calci and then I'm going to tell you, Cash App. really soon. Thank you to our friends over at both Cashap and Kalshi.

Really appreciate them being part of the show and appreciate you guys checking them out and helping us out. I do. I do. It's so funny, the trend of like, sponsorship.

Yeah, go ahead, Chris. I didn't know what Kalshi was until your ad here. And I had to watch that freaking Timothy Shalameh one, like seven times last night watching Kulu. And each time I was like, what is it? What is this?

Now you know. I'm going to hire you instead. See? Thank you. Yeah. And that comes from a voiceover pro, guys. Yeah. Look at that.

So suck at everybody who says anything else. I love the trends of all of the, remember when like the trend was everybody had a me andy spot? And then everybody like, so it's like Kalshi now. Like I hear it on all my like favorite podcasts and stuff. Oh, there you go. Listen to me.

We have more things to do here. And we have stuff that we're going to discuss. There are other topics that we will hit. I think one more. What's happening on the 22nd, by the way, Christian, September 22nd? Nothing. So right now. I'm trying to help you.

First of all, but you derail me. Everybody knows who we are. The lower third should be your trending thing. Oh, you know what we should do? We're trying to hit 2000 here. You know, where's Luke? You don't put up that launch thing that we have? Luke has, Luke created a launch thing.

We don't ever use it. It's because Luke's not always here. And you can't rely on PLD for shit. If we hit 2000, you're going to watch Hollywood. And Ron H. he's going to be happy. Definitely not you, but that's, that's pretty good. Thank you. I kid. PLD has been single handling him. Well, him and Winston yesterday kept the, apparently he did a good job, PLDA. That's what they say.

PLD is the man. That's what they say. So right now, we are just, what, 98 away from 2000? Pretty crazy. Pretty crazy. If we can get there, I would really, really, really appreciate it again. So we're going to try to hit 2000 by the time we, you know, send off here. And I'll probably do the same thing that I've been doing the last week. I did like a few supersized shows.

Now, Chris and Smets are probably going to be here for the entire thing, but I'll be here for the duration of when they are. And then I'll do like a little bit extra afterwards. So I feel like bearing the lead here too is the, Schmowdown has overtaken a lot of the talk on your shows. But as someone who's read your script, at least an early version of it. I don't know.

I think you took out some, a joke that I, I don't remember. You talked about it. You took out a joke. Yeah. But the script's really good. And like, if you're a fan of Christian, to see like this happen for him, like, we're always so happy when someone, like, accomplishes their dreams and stuff like that. He's wanting to tell this story.

I texted him off air where like it's no one. And I even said, hey, bro, be honest. Like, are you doing this? Like, if you get famous, are you going to stop doing your show and stuff like that? Like, as a joke, I'm like, should I be rooting against you? Because, like, I like being on the show of them. He's like, he's legit with no one. I'm sorry if I'm airing something that shouldn't.

Like, he's not trying to do this to be famous. This is his passion. This is his story that he wants to tell. And it comes from such a good place. And so you guys supporting it, as you call it, our show, it's so important and to understand that this is something that he's had a dream about for years. And the script is really, really good as someone who's read it. It's really, really good.

Thank you. I appreciate it. And no, look, look, I've said that before and someone asked me, I don't really like, yeah, right, the attention side of it. I just really want to tell this story. I mean, I really do. Like I know where it goes and I'm constantly thinking about it all the time. And I have someone brought it up and I just actually sent us to Craig.

They said at a certain, at a certain amount, if you hit the goal in a certain amount, would you release your playlist for the show that you, that you write to? And I said, yeah, that's probably that's a good idea. And I think that I would do that. I think I would do that. So anyway, they appreciate that. And currently we are, and Peele is going to post the link again in the, the comments, but we're currently at 1903,

and we will hopefully get, again, 97 more by the time the show is over. So maybe, and I'll cut another promo, and maybe that'll get more people. Maybe so, maybe so. But let's, let's cover this because I want to get to Spence's games. So this is such a weird story.

So check this out. And, you know, Gal Gaddo's been out promoting her new movie, and she talked about, she's been, she's been all over the news, because she's been pretty open about all the stuff that happened with Wonder Woman and whether it's Josh Harwitz.

show and now she talked about it again she said uh gal godote said she would only return as wonder woman of zach sander comes back to run to dc raising fresh questions about her relationship with gun and saffron gal godot made her dc e u debut as diana prince in 2016's batman versus superman and fans initially responded positively to her take on diana prince and the actress later took center stage as wonder woman the following year as time passed the shortcomings as a performer became more apparent and justice league turned her into a meme and wonder woman 84 is still widely considered one of the worst DC movies. The cameos in Shazam, Fury of the

Gods in the Flash followed, and that was where her run as the Amazon ended. In 2023, Godot claimed that Gunn and Safran promised her and Patty Jenkins' Wonder Woman 3 in response to Trades debunk that, and both the actress and filmmaker have since said they were shocked when DC Studios pulled the plug on their

planned sequel. During a... She can't get a win here. Look at this. Wonder Woman's style has new actions with an abysmal score. No? That's not great. During a recent interview with Joe Blow for a critically pan new movie The Runner, it is a 9% of Rotten Tomatoes. Godot told the site that she would only return as Wonder Woman on one condition,

the return of Zach Snyder. If Zach comes back to run DC, I'll come back. She's suggesting she has no interest in working with Gunn and Safran. While some fans hoped Snyder would be back after the Paramount merger, that's highly unlikely. For now, Gunn and Safran are expected to remain in charge at DC Studios, though both Clayface and Manette's Marrne need to succeed to ensure that. She said, there's more about, this is the quote that came out about on Harwitz's show. We covered that the other day.

But it's weird. I mean, I guess, look, some people are taking this of this like, look, from what I heard, you know, Snigger would come back. And if he comes back, I'll come back. I think this is just more like, hey, look, I'll tell you what. I was on this team. I'm loyal to my team. And if our, if the, you know, the captain of our team comes back, then I'll be back. and with no intention that it's actually going to happen.

She even said conflicting, you know, when she was on Harvard, said, I don't even know if I'd be in the right mindset to play Wonder Woman anymore. I got kids and do this. I wouldn't want to be away from them. So I think this is just her. I think she's being as cordial in this as she can be, but I think she's pissed off on the way that it was handled. I think that it just wasn't, she doesn't love the way that Gun and Safran handled it.

She's pretty much been showing that. and she's like, look, if Snyder comes back, then I'm back because I have all my loyalty to Snyder. But I don't know. Chris, do you see it a different way? No, I think this is a frankly, fairly measured kind of PR response to things. I'm going to be honest about the way I was treated. I'm going to be honest about how I feel about it, but I'm not going to fly off the handle. And I feel like that's a very fair response here.

When people go back on a contract, well, there wasn't a contract in place, but when people promise you something and go back on it, I don't think you're in the wrong to air that laundry, frankly and especially if you do it in a way that isn't you know vindictive or horrible or anything what i'm far more interested in right now is if this nine percent on the runner is earned because boy do i love a bad movie i'm going to watch this now and i hope it's like i hope this is madam web bad i'm so excited you're going to go pay you're going to pay to watch this in the theater oh no i would i would use my a list i don't want to see it that bad i want to see that bad no no but Would you give it one of your four movies on AMC?

Yeah, that's what I would do. What do you think about it, Kev? Well, that whole thing with, I totally agree with my compatriot, Mike Kalinowski, when he says that it wasn't cool that like, like he, James Gunn said that they were going to do his movie, right? Or her movie and stuff like that. And then they say, no, we're going to scrap it. But then he's keeping Amanda Waller. He's keeping peacemaker.

He was peace. He was keeping all of his friends in the DCU. taking it over when he should have just done a complete like re-scrap. So coming from someone like, you know, that whole mess, she's right when it's talking about, um, uh, Gao Gadot coming back and then like they were telling her they were going to do her movie and then suddenly they're not.

But, oh, but Peacemaker is part of it. And we are reshooting that one scene to make that part of the DCU. Like you can't pick and choose. I, I was really against that when I first heard that as much as I love peacemaker. It's like still, if you're rebooting, you're rebooting. So, yeah. No, it's, it's true. So thank you for the chat, letting us know that that movie, The Runner is actually on Amazon.

So you can, you don't have to go and use your A list even if you want. I'm going to get weird and watch it. There you go. So anyway, you know, she's doing the promotion. She's out there. And to be honestly, I didn't even know the Runner was a movie until yesterday because I was like, I just, I guess put two and two together. She's out there promoting something. And I was like, oh, it's this.

So I don't know if I watch it. But we'll see. anyway, look, that's really all we're going to cover as far as news stories, because Kevin's back and we want to play the games and you guys love the games, so we're going to get into that. But if you haven't gone to the clips channel, the clips channel is finally back, and you guys can go on. It's back.

We don't know what to talk about it. We could finally tell the story now that it's back. No, no, it isn't enough. It's, I don't want to drink it. It's, oh, it's back, and you guys can check it out. So, how many? I don't know. All right.

Let's get into an old, old friend. Oh, let's do, let's do. Are you ready? Let's go. Yeah. There's got to be music or something over that next time, right? Or somebody going Smith's games. Well, this, that's been there since like the beginning.

You're giving me your first note now? I like just the flames. I think that's very epic. Sure. Are you an audio listener? Oh, I get it. Well, then, by the way, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, hold on. I provide.

All right. Oh my gosh, the ASMR you guys are getting right now. I provide for you animated intros to my segment. Also, good segue, because we're doing pixel cinema first. Why don't we load up the pixel cinema opening? Nice. Let me get the note for that. Also, this is not fun for the audio listeners because this is a visual game, but we're doing it anyway.

Pixel Cinema, Chris, there have been many video games out there. video game translations of movies and they've been very terrible. Lots of them terrible, some good, but especially back in the day where we were growing up. I don't know. I think I'm oldest, but they were, some of them were pretty bad. So what we do is I have taken screen grabs from video games that are based on movies and I'm going to try to see if you guys can guess it. So I would say honor system, both have an idea in mind and then, you know, you guys can

both guess. Really funny, I tested this out. Some of these are so random and so like obscure. I tested them out with PJ. friend of the podcast and question writer of the Shmodown PJ and PLD and PLD can confirm this. PJ thought I was like animating these myself or like making these screen grabs myself. And I'm like, no, these are from real games. So you ready, Christian?

Yeah, can you explain? First of all, every time I do that, you say I go on too long. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. Go ahead. Go ahead. Wow, I'm back, huh? You happy?

You happy? I'm back? You have a little punching bag? You're a little Smet's puncher bag? Well, it depends. Well, here you go. You're going to be competition again. You get people going to see who I get,

apparently who I give more shit to you or Mike. I don't know about that. Okay, Pixel Cinema, here we go. Who's in control? Okay, here we go. Great. Thanks. Nice.

I didn't do that. Hint number one. This is for the Nintendo game. Chris and Christian. Yes. Any guesses for each, the first screen grab will be easy or hard. Or sorry, very,

They get easier as we go. They get better hints as we go along. So can you get it in the first screen grab? What video game movie? What movie is this based on? I love this game. I'm going to say castaway. By the way, I would put us back for the shorts.

If we're going to do this, we'll put me back on it. Cast away? Yeah, but it was probably too far, too far before that. Chris, any idea yet? No way. The Poseidon Adventure. Okay, nope. Go to hit number two.

Oh, that's good. All right. It is. Hint number two. Your underwater looks like you got some manor rays there or stingrays. I don't know. That's your hint number two. Again, this was for the Nintendo entertainment system. I know. I know what it is. I remember, but it was so obscure. I know what it is. You do. You have any idea yet? You want to give Chris the third? Yeah, she can go. She can do one, do one more. Okay. One more. I know. I know what it is. There's your hint. Oh, okay. You got it. All right. So what do we got? We go back full screen. I mean, Jaws?

Yeah. There it is. Jaws. Okay. All right. Yeah. And I feel like they were taking nods from Jaws, the return because they had the boat in the Bahamas or whatever. Yeah.

So that was Jaws very good. Okay. They're going to get. When the shark goes after his family for. Yeah. Right. Like sharks too. Jaws the revenge.

Yeah. And it somehow knows like that they travel. All right. Here we go. Hint number two, Christian. Or, yeah, there we go. This is for the Super Nintendo. Well, that's easy. Oh, I think it is.

You think it is? Yeah. All right, what screen, what game is that from? Terminator 2. Wrong. Really? Oh, you know what? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Do you have the second hit yet? Yeah, I know what it is. Damn it. I know what it is. You do? Okay, hold on. Yeah, I know. There it is.

Wayne's World. Wayne's World. Yeah. Yeah. Got that 13. So, remember in Wayne's World, it was the first. What was the first hint?

Go back to the first hint. I just erased it. We're moving out to the next one. Oh, yeah. By the way, you have so many little slots. Yeah, yeah. First thing, which I was like, how many slots do you have? Anyways, when Wayne's World, there's the scene where they're driving and they do an, they do an homage Terminator 2.

Remember, they even have Robert Patrick come out? And he's like, have you seen this boy? Yeah. So the video game has a cut scene, and they put that in there. So I thought that would be a good. The other one, it could have been, too, was last. action hero he's also in that too yeah all right he'll go for the next one this one now we're starting to get obscure here yes well not yet maybe not this is an arcade as you can see it says

insert coin up there anyone in the chat can chime in too see if it people but don't but don't cheat and look at the chat oh yeah don't cheat i'm saying for the chat they can yeah um i'll switch over to private it's a first person but i don't want to tell too much yeah i don't that one's tough okay go to the next screen still not giving it that much sorry someone in the chat already got it by the way so don't look at the chat debby does dallas okay debby does dallas yeah all right go to the third and final hint if you don't get it now then oh that okay now now i now i got it so so i could i should have guessed that before terminator two terminator two yeah all right a little theme i had a little theme going you threw me off because it can't be terminator two again that's what i thought it was at first

Exactly. All right. That was a, that was a game where you had like the Oozys, like, yeah, yeah, yeah. I remember. I lived with some guys. I lived with roommates and we had that old arcade cabinet when we lived in downtown LA. Like, it was pretty fun. Look, you'd always play it on pre-moon. Saul, Saul in the chat, he should know these ones too. He's a big gamer. All right, we got another one. All right. This one. Now, by the way, true story, PJ got this on the first try. So it's all about your generation. And he had played, he said played the shit out of this game growing up i had never heard of this game existing and it's hilarious if you guys get this i'll be impressed chris well now i have so many doubts because i was just basing it off

of the little suit okay what were you thinking blues brothers but now i don't you got it yeah yeah but look at the look at the background what's the blues brothers doing with that yeah yeah he actually he actually looks acidic in that first picture you're you're you you the other hints for the blues brothers but yeah that he's like underwater there or something and then there's another one where you're terrible yeah that's that's that one i gotta give it yeah the first someone just took banjo kazooie and re-skinned it yeah yeah basically and it's it was based on blues brothers 2000 of all things remember when they came back oh dog shit yeah all right and the last one and i mean this is where i mean some of like christian and i was being older this was the stuff as like

toddler or a little kid we had to oh i think i know what this is No way. I think I know what this is only because of the way that it's structured, but I could be wrong. Is it Popeye? I got nothing. No, good cat. Good guess. Go to the next one.

Next one doesn't give you anything either, man. Wow. But the third one will. The third hand actually spoils it. Oh, my God. They made a game based on. The third one does, the third one does spoil it. Right.

Yeah. Is that him sticking his dick in the thing? that's like the most famous scene in Borky. Yeah, I think so. Wait, what is the gameplay for this? No, no shit. So there it is. There's pixel cinema.

Probably wasn't fun for your audio listeners, but, you know, I'm not going to do that every week. No, that was good. That was good that because we kind of talked. Can we call it a tallywacker? Sure. We can also call it 1908, by the way. We're at 1908. That was a good year, 1908.

almost so again like uh oh wow just 92 away pld uh scolded me he was like you know i have to because i come in hot with like 22 new uh like almost a quarter of what you're allowed to have on your yeah your software and i'm like that's only with the pixel cinema but yeah right so all right we're going to go to the games now the more traditional fair of the smet's games i had a blind ranking plan but we'll do that next week we're on out of time here okay um so you just go to sg one everybody welcome to smet's games thank you uh only morale says great job. This is a good question.

All right, here we go. What movie franchise would be the best GTA-style open-world video game? Oh, man. Goodfellas, back to the future, Mad Max, the Godfather, or who framed Roger Rabbit? And again, for the shorts, when you start to answer, take care of you. First of all, any one of those movies I would play, I would play that open world thing to be great. But I think Roger Rabbit would probably be the most fun. 100%.

I didn't I didn't do that. I didn't do that. But I think Roger Rabbit would be the most fun where you would get. Absolutely. Right? Because you would just, there's so many different tunes and other different tune worlds you can go to and other things that you'd be able to. And just whether or not you're going to see the judge or whatever. And just going through that whole Jessica when she's working and there's just tons of stuff that you could do for that.

although the Goodfellas would be pretty crazy too. Also, you'd be in the real world, and then that would look like GTA anyway. And then when you got to go to Tune Town and you drive through that tunnel, then all of a sudden the game engine just looks completely different to you do in Tune Town. I'd argue, and I'll let Chris chime in too, I think back to the future. And I remember. That would be good to the time travel game, yeah. Someone in the chat, if they can find it on YouTube or PLD, he always finds stuff.

Someone did a tech demo once of what it would be like to have an open, world GTA style back to the future game and you're in the delorean and basically the whole map would exist but if your delorean hit 88 it would it did this effect where it would pop and then all a sudden the map you're still in the same exact location on the map but now you're in 195 or then now you're in the old west and you would you'd be able to just in real time just completely go to the each of the major timelines and the map it would just be and it made it look like what it would look like in the movie you know like all of a sudden now the tuck clock tower is gone and it's the into old west and stuff.

And it was like in real time and it was like a tech demo. So that's why I would choose back to the future. Chris, what about you? It's a good one. Oh, I don't even think about that because I was going to say who framed Roder, Roger Raj, but then I would go to Mad Max. But that has a really cool game mechanic, especially if you have no control over where the Delorean ends up.

Because then that makes things really, really fun and hinky. I like that a lot. Especially if you can just like crash through the prom and all that kind of stuff. All of a sudden, you know, enchantment under the sea. Yeah, oh, my gosh. I always wondered how he survived. by the way, like, you're going 88 miles per hour. I've been at that square at Universal Studios when I was a kid actor for Newsies.

That thing is right next to the theater. You're going 88 miles per hour and then he goes headlong into the theater. Did they explain how he survives a head-on crash into a theater about like 15 feet away from where he hit 88 miles per hour? No. Movie magic. Yeah. Next question. SG2.

Recasting time machine. You can go back in time, Chris and Christian. and prevent the recasting of one actor, which movie franchise would improve the most, financially or storytelling however you want? They keep Keaton and Batman Forever and Batman and Robin, keep Terrence Howard as War Machine and Iron Man 2 and the MCU beyond, keep Norton as Hulk and Avengers and Beyond,

or Alec Baldwin keeps on and you don't have Harrison Ford take over for Patriot games and beyond. What say you? I love, yeah, same, Keaton. I love Val Kilmer and what he did for that particular Joel Schumacher version, but the continuity in keeping him from one to two, three, and people loved him, didn't want him to go at all. The other ones were all liked a lot.

Who did you get? You got, let me see, let me see that. Yeah, yeah, you had Terence Howard. Yes, Terence Howard, when he was replaced, it was like, okay, but people don't really think of him now, isn't he really thinking? You think you're going to cheat. Don, Sheetle. Yeah, and Ed Norton was really good as Hulk,

but the same thing, Ruffalo took it and kind of ran with it. And then Baldwin, same thing, you think of Harrison Ford more than you think of him. So you can take that down now. But for Keaton, we're not talking about bail. We're not talking about for those four movies. We wanted to see him continue the story. Yeah, I agree.

I think Keaton did such a good balance of Bruce and Bats, you know? And Val Kilmer was incredible as Bruce. I don't know if I liked him as much as Batman. And from what you hear, there's no way Norton would have stayed on this long and like now been in, you know, all these side movies. Like, you know, I think he's more that a tour anyway. He would have wanted, he would have been over it. So it's good. You know, you get like a team player like Ruffalo in there that whole time. That was Baldwin one. You're right. Like Patriot games and stuff. I don't think it, I think Harrison Ford was a bigger star. That was an upgrade in star power. Totally. People don't even remember. Oh, yeah, he played Jack Ryan. Yeah. All right. Here we go. Oh, by the way, I met Don Cheatel. He put me in jail in picket fences. So I could say Iron Man, or sorry, War Machine, put me in jail in picket fences for a school shooting. Anyways.

Okay. Maybe Chris, you could find that, PLD, the scene. But yeah, I was a school shooter in a picket fences scene. Oh, this is a Chris Carr. Yeah. Chris, you can guarantee yourself one of these jobs tomorrow. Which career path would you take? Would you be the lead in a Pixar movie? Would you be the lead villain in a a Disney animated movie, would you be a major character in a AAA video game franchise? Although you have lots of credit for me, you've been in a Star Triptoobers video game. I did my research. Or would be a recurring character in an anime series? Oh, man, I'm going to give such a sellout answer because, okay, fun fact for everyone playing at home.

If you are in a AAA video game, that's fantastic, but you don't get any residuals. Oh, wow. You don't get shit. So I would go lead Disney villain, because villains are more fun to play. I'd get that sweet, sweet paycheck. Yes. In my heart of hearts, I would want an anime. Yeah, but it was a career path question.

That's smart. That's a smart choice. Also, like, if the movie is success, they're going to call you for the theme park rides. Like, you get to reprise, you get to be reprising your villain. Well, wouldn't the Pixar one be the same? Pixar too.

Yeah, Pixar. That was a lead. And I want to be a baddie. Okay, that's fair. Okay. All right. She wants to be a baddie. I have to move through the world being nice.

I want to be evil in TV shows. I got thoughts of this. Speaking of evil, and I'll get to it in a second. This is easy. Spider-Man live-action Mary Jane, okay? Date, Mary, and because of the algorithm, tie to the train tracks. We know what that means.

Kirsten Dunst in the Ramee trilogy. You got Zendeha. Zendaya. Yeah, Zendaya in the MCU. And then Shulane Woody, she wasn't in Mary Jane, though. She was Mary Jane, in the, in the amazing Spider-Man.

They shot me. I was just run Stacy. No. Oh, right, right, right. Amazing. Right, right. Yes, yes, yes.

Yeah. Um, she, they shot scenes with it and they decided that they would rather, uh, they were going to bring her back for the three-quel or the sequel, the third one. Yeah. So they ended up shelving those scenes, but there's set photos you could see and he, she, they would have been neighbors or whatever. So what say you, who are you going to date, which we know what that means. Let's get, let's get, let's get it out of the way.

You take, you take Kirsten Dunst and you tire the traction. You never look back. Yeah. Um, because, I mean, we're talking about the Mary Jane character. What's about the character? The character, not the actress. And that, and that's why I have my other. I love Kirsten's, but, but you, I've watched those movies recently.

She's awful. She's, uh, she's, uh, she's, um, but. Can we tell you why real quick? I'll lay, I'll lay it down real quick. Yeah, yeah, yeah. In Spider-Man, she kisses Spider-Man while dating Harry. She tells her ex's best friend at his father's funeral, no less. She loves him.

In Spider-Man, too, asks Peter to kiss her. while she's engaged, basically leaves the fiance at the altar. Now she's dating her ex's best friend. In Spider-Man 3, she resents Spider-Man's popularity and is jealous. She doesn't initially tell Peter she was fired from a Broadway show, then gets mad when he doesn't react to it. And finally, in Spider-Man 3, she cheats on Perry, Peter with Harry when they kiss in the kitchen. She's the worst tired of the train tracks.

She's such a human being bad person. Look, I know that he loved her, but listen, we talk some shit about her. Just don't tell Peter. So, we're going to, um... There's a scene in that movie, by the way. I just recently rewatched. And there's a scene when she gets fired, and it's another thing is he's lying.

She's like, don't tell Harry. And he's like, you don't want me to tell Harry? He's like, yeah, don't tell Harry. And at the end of the scene, she walks away and says, don't tell Harry. It's like that sentence was so many times. How did I miss it? Listen, so, yeah, you tie her to the tracks. And then, so.

What do you think, Chris, same? Yeah, who are you tying the track? I mean, I think that's fair because I say this as an actress. God, we're insufferable. I don't want to date you. I have to come see your black box theater show God Right Right

No When I was in a play I was like y'all don't need to come Y'all need to come see this And he got hit by a card And he missed her play But he got to hit by a car We all agree she's the shits So then as far as

I don't know Shaley though I don't know her so I guess I date her That's why I'm dating her Yeah I don't know I don't know I mean I know Shailin Willey But I don't know her version because it was cut out of the movie. So I'd say that for me, he dated her.

And you'd say like, oh, let's see where this goes. But we already know with Zendaya, she's been, and I came around completely with that character. Because in the first one, I'm like, I get it. She's kind of too cool for school. But then you just fall in love of her with the way that she, of who she really is because she shows that that's a guard.

And then you see how much she really does care. So that's, that's the easy ones. Yeah. She's so fun. Yeah. She's sardonic. She's well, Red. She's so smart.

She's loyal. And loyal. Super loyal. Like in Spider-Man brand new day. She had to still be honest and say, hey, I'm not, you knew that person, but I don't remember that. She's honest. She didn't lie.

She's straight up. All right, here we go. We'll just rack. We'll go with rapid files through these other ones. We got two more. Okay, I love these ones. You know I love these ones, Christian. You get $10 million dollars, Chris, right now, but you need to survive one of these.

Which do you pick? 24 hours on the Nostromo with a xenomorph alien. One night in Jurassic. park after the fences fail, survive one night in Camp Crystal Lake while Jason is active, survive one night in the purge where everybody's killing each other with no consequences, or 24 hours on the predator, predators hunting ground. What say you, both of you, I want to hear, I want to hear Chris first. One night in Jurassic Park and I'm going to Jimmy Buffett this. I'm going to grab two margaritas and run for my life. Wow. Yeah, see, I'm going with the purge because

the purge, I can at least try to. I try to hide from people. And I'm going to try to hide because I'm not hiding from Jason. I don't care how slow the motherfucker is. He still finds a way to find people. You're not getting away from an alien. You're not getting away from the predator.

And some kind of dinosaur is going to find you. Do something stupid to you. You get one good hiding spot somewhere while everybody else is killing each other. I'll take the purge. You literally, that's what PLD, in his defense, he chose the purge too. At first, I'm like, dude,

everybody's trying to kill you though. Yeah. It does have the height, huh? I would say Jurassic Park. I'd be hanging out, but I would flag you down from the high hide from the lost world. You know the thing where they're up in the trees. I'd be like, bring your margaritas up here and we just chill in the high hide for 24. Sure.

And then the one, the one, the one Bronosaurus or whatever the hell they're called now wants to come in and decide, you know what? I don't like to eat. They're herbivores, Christian. I was going to say, I was going to say, you got the one. Pull your head out of your ass. That guy's not going to come get me. You didn't let me finish my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, And I said you get the one, the one Bronster's that decides, you know what?

This meat thing kind of looks pretty good. And then here you are with two margaritas in your hand. And then you're, and then you went the one guy that went off book, you're his now, you're his snack. Oh, come on. Isn't it nice of me to be well seasoned for that dinosaur, if that's where I'm going to go? Because I also don't have it in me to defend myself in the purge. All right.

I know who I am. And if I'm handed a weapon, they're like, you could fight for yourself. I'd be like, no. No. What about the trial? What about the Tri-Santis Torres Tops is JT. The easiest answer, though, is Camp Crystal Lake. That's one person.

You just got to hide you. He always finds a way that's a problem. Yeah, you just don't go upstairs in a house because that's the cliche, right? If you're in that world, I thought that initially, I would be like, no, you just run as fast as you can because the stupid asshole just walks slow. But he finds a way to do it. He pops up and he's, you know, he's swinging and knock people's heads off. Just make sure you don't have sex at camp and you're pretty fine. Did you ever play the video game Friday the 13th?

it was like one of those Fortnite type games where one person gets selected as Jason and he walks around and everybody else has to try to hide it's like hide and think so I think Riley was playing it by the way so we're at this library we're 1909 almost at 1910 one more in 1910 we can do that with 90 to go let's do let's do one

let's do one more somebody somebody can do it all right Kevin you one more quick one more Smith's game for you yeah and then we got and then we got to get to the questions so this is a little more on topic as well Spider-Man just became the two billion dollar level franchise which hero would you think it's most likely to be the next one to hit two billion uh you got batman franchise the superman franchise under james gun cold trickle days of thunder two because we just know that when he came back with maverick they made a boatload of money james bond they don't have the new

bond yet depends on who they cast wonder woman or hey we keep forgetting that there's going to be a live action legend of a zelda movie coming out which i'm am for i'm sure chris is too uh which movie will be the next one to hit the two billion there's only two potential answers here, which is either Batman or Zelda. And as much as I think Batman is a major, major force and could do some serious damage, it's still a darker movie, and it's not based off the video game industry, which is the biggest business out there. If they perfect and get a Zelda movie right, it's very likely, not just like a hypothetical

scenario is very likely that that could happen. So Zelda. Yeah. Oh, absolutely. The franchise as a whole is gross. I believe about $5 billion at this point already just as a video game. You get this to be a really fantastic, you know, cinematic universe that does have so many other times to other games. If you can build up to a like smash bros level kind of situation here cinematically, you've got the potential to make so much money, if done well. Yeah. And we could have you, you could be the voice of what's the little elf guy or girl um the last time we played games or do you mean the little fairy yeah the fairy that's like kite kite the kid's like buggy yeah navi the one that just yeah you could be navi you'd be the voice of navi I would love that it would make me so happy to be that annoying little fairy I love

her there you go those are your smet's games I'm so glad to be back and christian's super sweet dude texting me the whole time I'm gone I was like no one's gonna remember the smet's games and stuff And he was saying, and he might have just been trying to make me feel good. But people were messaging all throughout the month. Yeah. Gone like they missed the message. Where's the games? Where the games?

Oh, yeah. They love the game. That's awesome. So I'm glad to come back. I got some new one. I had a lot more. I got some more for next week. So I'm excited to be back.

That's me again. That's you again. I'm full screen and we could just show there's. Hey. Nice to have you back. Yeah. Nice to have you back. Oh, my gosh.

Here's my song about kids. Kevin Smiths, he forgot Peter, but not the rest. He's yelling about Kalimowski all the time. Why? Why you care about the killer? Why you care about the killer? Oh, my balls, they like a thriller. Oh, yeah, yeah.

I like to dance. I give it a chance. If you like, I can do a dance by dipping my nuts on your head. If you keep saying these things again and again. Bye-bye, Smith. There you go. He welcomed you back. We haven't seen him in a while.

You know you're back when you have that happen. Yeah. I haven't seen big balls in a while. It's nice to have him back. Nice. He came back for my return show. Yeah. All right.

You're going to get some questions? We want to see if now... We got a chance to get to 2,000 with you guys here. That's a possibility. But you're already doing pretty good on the questions. We've got to beat Roka, who had a pretty good day on Monday. He did, huh? We'll see if we can beat him.

Remember the Bulldogs? 5144. Judging by all the hype leading up to Dooms Day right now at the box office projections, the MCU is fine. It'll probably hit $3 billion if it's great. Do you remember how crazy people said I was when I said that? I was one of those people who was like, what are you talking about?

Now it's becoming a narrative. Now it's becoming a thing. Now I'm not as crazy as I was four months ago. Even Campia giving you your flowers I saw on your Campia show. Everybody is now coming along to say it's a possibility. It's still a crazy prediction. Let's call it what it is. But the fact that it's in the realm now,

when I said it, like, you're out of your freaking mind. That's not even a thing. Now it's a possibility. So maybe I'm not as stupid as I look. All right, let's see. Next one. That's always a good one. Go pal.

Bum to Miss Smet's return and the debut of Smet's games with Chris, but I have a meeting I have to go to this afternoon. We watch and replay. We'll go. We missed you. Have a good meeting, my friend. Yeah. We do have a previous game, though, that you can find on the channel, too. Yeah, yeah. That was a good one.

Oh, what you go on? Yes. I will say that with GoPal and everybody else, especially anybody and Sam over in the Discord, everybody has been so great and promoting and talking about the Kickstarter because I was even looking at some of the upcoming campaigns that are doing well as they're getting ready to launch. And they're in like the,

70 to 100 range of pre-backers. We have almost 2,000 guys. Really, the same time frame, huh? Within, I think, within, within the zone. So we're really pushing for it. And that's what I've been using as an example is the Guild, right? Like, because Guild had something like 10,000 before they launched. And then they, you know, overperformed by like six times.

So if we are, you continue to do it, That's why I tell everybody just to hit that notification button. And I'd say big picture to where it's, as Kevin was mentioning beforehand, all it's going to do is elevate everybody on this channel. If we were able to make this series and get this thing noticed and get more people looking at this show and other things too. I mean, it's going to benefit the community. So just hit that button if you haven't done it all right. And you're not donating when you do it either.

You're just, you know, it's just basically right now, it's just basically right now, there's no obligation to it. It's basically just saying, okay, I'm going to notify them. When you guys have all your tiers and you have everything, when it's the 22nd, I'm going to get notified and say, okay, well, this is what is being offered to me right now. Oh, so

by the way, we're on the phone. I won't say someone on the team suggested something to put into the Kickstarter as a tier that wasn't there before. And all of us went, oh my God. I was like, if that was offered to me, I would sign up tomorrow. And I didn't even

I hadn't thought about it. And it was, it was pretty crazy. Can you say it or no? No, no, I can't say, yeah.

Can you do it in the private chat? I can put it in the private chat. But let's see. You know, Pildee, why don't you bring up, well, I type,

why don't you bring up, I'll do this one, and then you bring up the next one so I can type. Dunder Milfin, that's a great, that's great, actually. Potter trailer's all right, but it doesn't feel different.

I have to agree with that. I think it looks pretty good, but it looks the same, just more detailed. It looks like a re-skin. It looks like Super Mario All-Stars from the Nest to Super Nest, right? I was going to mention that. I love the trailer.

And, like, my wife and I are discussing how we're going to show Kira, like, because we're going to start to read, and she's turning six. And I know it's a little young for that. But, like, if you read it and you can kind of get a control on the stuff that's scary. But this, it looks like it's just going to be like the, I wish the trailer did, like, what the special edition for Star Wars did. It was like, plus a new more, a few more. surprises and they did this montage of all the new things that were going to be in the special edition.

They should have done something to where in the middle, you just start seeing stuff that's in the book that's not in the movies. Because right now, almost every scene in there, they just have, they have Neville looking at Fluffy. That's the only difference right now from the book and the movie that people were like, who's that boy in the background? You got to see what's going to be different about it. And again, I was a fan of the Fantastic Beast movie. I was so excited for Jude Law to have that showdown that you always talk about during World War II.

England when they finally have their big duel and to never get that and then they're going back and they're just redoing everything, which is going to take up like 20 years, 10 years of the next Harry Potter storytelling and telling instead of telling new stuff, a little bummed up that. What do you think, Chris? I was coaching this morning, so I've not watched it. Oh, yeah, I've not seen it. Okay. Yeah.

It looks good. And by the way, Les Gals sold me as Dumbledore in that trailer. He's awesome. He was good. Yeah. I'm kind of aged out at it at this point. So I'm just like, I don't need this show. But if it's something that you're interested in, I can understand that.

It's just not for me. I am interested in it because I always wanted to see the more detail of how like almost with Percy Jackson going into more detail in the actual book itself and the stuff that they left out. I love the movies. I love the movies. But I want to see what they left out. But anyway, we got a bunch of these. So we got to go through them.

But I did put Kevin in the private chat what, what that offer was. What do you think, Chris? Very cool. That's nuts. I want that. Right? Yeah. I mean, like, when that was when that was like, I didn't even realize that could be a thing.

When I was in a man. Can I do that? Yeah, 100%. Like, and that's the thing is that so when I think that's going to go quick because I think it'll be limited. I mean, obviously, they can't be more than maybe five people that could be offered that. But I think people will grab that pretty good. And I think you could put a pretty good price on that too, Christian. Well, it's worth it for what for what that is.

I mean, in general. And people will see it and they'll understand. All right. So Atari fan for life. My favorites, go Chris, Kevin, Roxy, in that order. So I'm excited. Kevin is back on my favorite weekdays. Smet schemes will be awesome. We've missed you. See? We did. Thanks.

I'll have missed you. I love Atari. Keb, would you return for the singles tournament or would it just be for IG? Says Griffin Shaw. Well, I think I can break this news, Christian. Go ahead. Unless you're going to get mad at me about it. Go ahead.

I texted Christian on the side and I'm like, I couldn't take a spot if it was eight or 16. There's 15 other, like, well, 15 other people that are way more deserving of getting that chance to return. for me, it would be important for me to try to defend that belt, just because that belt, you know, how much that belt means for me, and I never did it. And for me, like, intergeeked. I'm like, I know it would be a lot, although I had suggested, like, I don't think you need an IG movies list anymore.

I think you can widen the pool, widen the net, but keep the water, water's a little bit shallower, so it's more like singles, but just really, like, throw all the video game movies, you can throw 500 new movies in there. Make it kind of like singles, but more like geek focused. But for me, like, here's a funny thing too by the way roka said oh i would never do i g because i kiss girls or whatever like did he say that yes on your show here's the thing every story that you guys talk about on this show

mostly are i g ig movies in that realm is what gets people talking it's literally the top two stories of our show and the third would have been harry potter i g i g ig so like when people are talking about like if it ever came to tv i bet you networks would say you need to have more interview from questions. Like, no one cares about how green was my valley or one flew over the cuckoo's nest. Random fans want to see questions about vendors and stuff like that. To answer your question, I, G's close to my heart. I feel like it's interesting that, like, the live event is like the third place thing,

because I feel like at a live event, maybe I'd get a chance to defend. But, yeah, I don't want to take it away. So if the tournament comes back, I definitely am going to let the others take over. And I'm going to be a huge Chris Carr fan. Maybe I can at least enter the be with her or something. But yes, I couldn't, I couldn't take the spots. I'm not going to do the singles tournament. If it came back, by the way, permanently and Drago and I have already been texting,

I'd be teams and that would be my entry into that division. But for the tournament, no smasher, no smasher. No, smasher in the singles term. I feel like the people would want you more than me, though. I would be very okay to have you be in there. No, not at all. No, you need that. You're going to be, you're going to be a Wake Forest.

You're going to be like the under, Wake Forest. That's a NCAA tournament basketball. You're going to be that underdog team. I don't. Yeah. I was like, isn't that a funeral ground? What are we talking about? Just like one year they had like an unbelievable run.

Dunder Milflin. Chris and Kevin together, a dream team excited. I wonder if Mike Kalanowski would like Dunder Milflin. He probably would. It's a great man. Thoughts on Roka calling you soft, Kev and the be me line. Well, thanks again, Saul always.

They're going to get soft and I'm going to get harder. Saul sent me that clip. I immediately texted. Roka, he's in promo mode, just like I was in promo mode. If Mike got mad about what I said earlier today, like I had the hoodie on. He's probably. It's like I love when people get fired up. He says, blow me or whatever, and soft.

And all I just reply is this. He's 0 and 2 against me. I beat him in the Harry Potter match. And I beat him in the champion of champions match, which I also beat your boy, Dan Merle. No one talks about that because I'm CM Punk. And these guys are all your... You keep saying that.

Silver Blue Mando, not happy that Doomsday started filling. me without a finish grip because that works so well for Transformers 2, Aquaman, too, Dark Phoenix. Yeah, but the only difference there is silver blue is that, like I said, it seems like the Rousseau's have a good, you know, grip on it and understand kind of where to go moving forward. So, you know, I think they had more of an outline than anything else. And go to Chris Carr said, there's a lot of, there was a lot of improv and the other stuff that they did. It's the doc, Doc. Smash is back, baby.

I've been sounding off in your absence this whole time. They all have selective memory. Only Sturger and POD had any sense and defended you. Much love to the dungeon. Chris love you too. By the way, on... Look at this picture. It's the dog.

It is good. If people want to see on the Vault Channel and the Shmodeon Vault Channel, we've been talking a lot of Shmodown recently, and people are like, I don't really know what the Shmodon stuff is. Season 3 is in full effect, and we just put the JTE documentary on the other day, which was so great. If you haven't seen it, you should. Chris, you should watch that one.

I think you'd really like it. It's the Little Evil, the Rise and Fall, Little Evil, J.T. And it was when he was, he had started off so hot in season one and season two, because he'd won the, he'd got real far in the first tournament. In the second tournament, he got to the finals and the teams. And he was supposed to be like the big story. Got a title shot in season three. And then he just went to the shits.

He started losing everything. And we did this whole documentary on him because he was like one of the first bad guys. So we made this whole thing on him. And it was right before he went up against, we had Olympic gold medalist Cody Miller on the show. You've met Cody, yeah? No, I just know. But you know he is.

So Cody was on Schmo's and JT challenged him. So there's this, it was this big match that was happening. I just watched it again today. It's phenomenal. It's like, it's phenomenal. So I would highly recommend people going and checking it out on Schmowdown Vault. I still suggest for your vault, by the way. And I know you've said no because I think while this show,

the channel's building. I think you could do a couple matches out of order, and I'm not saying anything about mine. I think you do the celebrity matches. You get that on there. You get the Kevin Smith versus Jericho match on there. Even on an island right now, it's not going to spoil other things. But if you get some of those celebrities on that channel, you have some celebrity. You get the cast of like a shorts are for a man. Yeah, that's true. Yeah. Shorts, I have no problem doing that. Probably by the way, probably next week is when. Yeah, because I don't want to go out of chronological order on the main thing, but I have no problem doing it on shorts. Lincoln West saw on discord shadow of Sith episode four is almost done yeah uh Cotor uh there

our fourth episode I just got sent the PS one more scene to shoot and then it will all get compiled and ready to go I don't know quite when it is um I'm thinking probably October and that's good because I don't want to take any uh or October or November because I want to focus all of my energy on on Christian's Kickstarter but eventually we'll start promoting the hell out of our Cotor episode three, our Imagine Cotor 3 storyline, our fourth episode comes out in a couple months. Okay. Lincoln West. P.S. I saw the Kickstarter post on Cotor will be donating. Thank you so much. Yeah, I told Christian I posted it all. Yeah, I love that. Thank you. PPS. I forgot to say welcome back, Kevin. Loles. Ron H. Thank you, man. Racist team in the house. Triple K.

Oh, geez. Well, that's also, what's his face? That's, if you, it depends on who you talk to about uh kalanowski right peel day people call me smet's he can do kk s well you know why roxy because i'm racist that's why i said i cue up peeled d to play the tip is play that clip i'm gonna eat crow wait wait wait wait i i queue up peel data to you know to do that clip and this is what he does he sits there drinking didn't pay attention to it right unbelievable they'll call them the best the best color in the business for nothing all right ron h just kidding we only know my case you that's exactly right okay um crap and shits last week fire and ice and wizards was brought up christian if you like dragons's layer game

behind you you'll like the movies all don't blue cruz okay that's pretty cool yeah you know i've never seen it before but you want to see it for sure and i still am waiting for they're supposed to do a Dragon's Lair game. I'd love to see a Dragon's game still. I love that. Atari fan for life. Kevin, are you liking lanterns? Dude, yeah, I keep forgetting. I've been gone.

Yeah. I love it, man. Their TV game from Penguin and lanterns is so great. And I think you guys talked about it yesterday or on Tuesday. Like, I think it's okay to go a little darker with a lot of this DC stuff.

It's interesting how it can, you know, juxtapose against Superman being so light and stuff like that. And I can't wait to see how they do Guy Gardner in that world. But I love dude, a lot of people hating on this, the origin episode, basically, which is like a lot of flashbacks.

I was, I was gripped that whole time. That was such a good setup. And you just see these characters in such a different light. Yeah, I'm enjoying it. Jasvoz, 89, 750 Jules football. What's Jules? So that's the thing you went out for a little bit. So it's like another way just kind of to donate

and they just put, it's like, you know, took a little gift that they said. Oh, cool. Ron H. just got out of the hotel pool. It had a long water slide. It's so cool. I was pushing little people to the side shooting. Ron H. coming through. Just kidding.

You know, here's the thing. I don't think you're kidding. Yeah. I believe that 100% happened. Yoshimitsu. I want Kaiser putting Smasher and Chris against each other as rivals. Steel sharp and steel. Yeah.

By the way, that whole thing that Kevin said about the tournament, him not being in it, take no merit in that. He's going to be very mad. I'm going to get a. scolded text message. No, I mean, it's just, I don't believe you. Mr. I crap and just, my mistake,

Fire Nights and Wizards are Ralph Boskey, not Dom, okay, Boxchee did Fritz the Cat and Cool World. Bluth did Dragons the Dragonss Air. Yeah, Blues, yeah. You could watch Longplace online of like, the Dragon Slayer, Dragon Layer 2. I have it. I have it.

And yeah, you could watch that whole thing, man. As a kid, yeah. That was brilliant. They had the arcade cabinet, and then they had a TV on top of the arcade cabinet so people could see it from far away, and I just remember being so blown away by it. I'm a big video gamer, by the way.

Yeah, I know. Lil Yankee, 100 Jules, high five. Josh from Moscow, what's up, Josh? Christian, for the trending intro, maybe the first 30 seconds of Iqfou. As I said that wrong, right? Definitely. I quix.

E.K. Fuay. That makes more sense. That makes more sense. But I felt Spanish miserably. I'm sorry, Josh. If that's not the vibe, my best friends of music producer could make something original inspired to help.

That's very kind of you and nice. And I think one of the things we're going to open up is like this is the thing that so I will say this is I one of the things I talked about yesterday I won't say who yet but we spoke to somebody pretty great yesterday um and one of the things that got them interested in kind of being involved with us was that um they love the idea of the process to show fans and to show people in general how a pilot is made from scratch to finish production. And so that is something to where what Josh says here,

if you're part of it and you join you're part of the campaign. And then Josh says, hey, guys, he's got access to Andrew Freed now. When he's in the room now, he's a certain tier. And he's like, oh, well, here's my suggestion. Here's this. I don't know what you guys are looking up for music. But here's this. My buddy does this.

It's like full on access to everybody. And you're watching things. And there might be an announcement of, okay, we have this coming up. We have this. We made this offer to this actor and we're waiting to hear back. And you get like from start to finish what's happening. And that has, especially if you're involved, if you like this business in general, it's like I don't know of any campaigns or anything that's ever done that before. And that's what I'm glad.

So Josh, yeah, we don't have any of that stuff down yet. And I'll listen to that song to see if potentially in my head if it work. We haven't even gotten to that creative side of it yet. What is it going to look like in the beginning of, you know, smash to the credit or whatever? I don't know yet. But thank you. And also, and I'm not to speak for Christian here, but like Kevin Smith, was it a connection through the Schmodeon or did you just do it randomly?

Kevin Smith had Clerks 3 and Ben Bateman got one of his songs on it. I think it was playing slowly in the radio in the background or something or in the car radio or in the background of one of the scenes. But Ben Bateman got one of his songs on there. Was that through a connection through you or was that just? No, no, he did it on his own. He found out of way. Yeah, no, I mean, Bateman is, I mean, you see what he's already done with his

channel and the way he's kind of blown up too. Atari fan for life. Someone has been through Kima before he's right. It definitely hurts your memory retention. It's rough. Yeah, it is. And again, if I did come back and Mike doesn't have to worry. I wouldn't mention it too much. I would just say that I have experience coming

back from scratch because it felt like scratch. All the things that I was, I was like, I didn't remember names and stuff like that. It is a weird partial memory wipe. So I was able to come back from scratch and then win the title again. So if it were to come back. I think I could do it again. That's the confidence I have. I know I'm rusty, but I think I could do it again. Ron H. Between Practical Magic 2 and by any means, I'm probably going to, I'm probably

going for the film about kicking racist people's asses, fucrisom, just beat up assholes. Well, the end one's going to argue with you on that one. Yershmitsu, same Chris. I'm pumped for X-Men, not Doomsday. Yeah, but Doomsday is going to get you pumped for X-Men. They should, they should promote that, though. I mean, this has got to the time we're going to have, no, the last time we're going to have Ian McAllen and Patrick Stewart as like it's got to be that's the I bet you they'll start that'll be more of a selling point yeah 100% um all right so we got frank uh vt i'm with chris on my interesting doomsday but with the stars and marketing cause how much does it have to make to be considered a hit for disney seems like

the budget is just way too massive i think that the while ago it's astronomical i think it needs to do something in the range one to one point two in order to be successful wow i think so well that'll hit that yeah i think so too yeah griffichon media smasher returns that promo was straight fire. Hope to meet you at a live event, Smith. This guy's really thinking about live events. I will say this. I will say this on the live event thing. And it's going to be really similar to Goldberg.

Goldberg wanted to return, and one of his reasons he wanted to return was his son never saw him compete. Now, my daughter was an infant with headphones and didn't know what the heck was going on when I came back after cancer for the spectacular live event. My number one goal to come back if it would be

a live event. And that's why I put everything on the line is for my daughter to go and see me do an entrance see me go on there and by the way even in the unlikely case that i lose one thing my daughter has difficulty right now is if she loses at shoots and ladders or loses at games she gets a little upset i'd love to teach her yeah how to lose because that's how that was that was my whole thing with the smasher was i would win three in a row and i would have a devastating loss then i went another three in a row get the title have a devastating loss and then I came back. I was all about coming back after losses. And so even if I lost, my daughter could see me live and see how I handled losing in front of all these people, even something as massive

as the title or losing to K.O. for bragging rights. I could teach you how to lose. So being at a live event would be very important to me. And that's what I'd want to do less so. Well, when it comes to live events in general, right? So that's the thing where this is why I keep telling people, follow the Kickstarter. Get the Kickstarter going, get us. a place. Let's, let's overperform and break the record. Let's get, let's get to this, let's get this thing to where people are going. Trending has shattered the record for Kickstarter television pilot of all time. Because inside of it, then it's like, okay, well, wait a minute, with the success that we have there and what we're able to do there, and maybe

some of the stretch goals is then we put stuff towards what we're going to do, which show now, and we can actually do this which show now. And then we could do that. Then we put that towards casting. We put that towards this. And we could really make things, Huge and do stuff. My thought process is, and again, I don't have any, I'm not working with anything yet, so I have no idea. But I thought what could be cool, and this could change. And I'm not, don't hold me to this.

There's just the ideas that I'm thinking of is that, do you, I can't remember the, Pieldy, do you remember the name? Because I don't think you ever went to this theater, but there was a theater that one of the first live events, it may have been the first live event we ever did in California. I can't remember the L. The glow?

No, it was the. El Capitown? Al Capitan. No, I know you're talking about. It was the tournament. I was there. Chance Ellison made his premiere, by the way, in the video, you see me in the crowd and Chance and Mike Kalinowski are up there in the stands.

Yeah, that's when that's right after he turned heel. But so anyway, I would want to potentially rent out that theater for like three days, right? Oh, wow. But like, you know, do it during the daytime. but invite fans to come and see it. The whole taping, yeah. For the whole taping. Yel Porto?

El Porto? Yeah, that's it. And rent it out for like three days and then have people, you know, sign, don't tweet out spoilers, whatever it might be. And for three days, but don't shoot the finale, shoot everything but the finale, shoot three days of tournament matches, release them to where they come out.

And then by the time we get to the finale, you do a big live event that we normally do, that you do say, okay, everybody wants to come. We're going to be doing it here or here or here. Maybe it's a different city. Who knows? And then you put an undercard, and maybe that's where you see Kalinowski and Smets 4.

Maybe that could be something that we could, you never know. So there's options on the table. That's why I tell you to hit the button. Hit the button. And listen, the Christian, and these are based on, I keep mentioning off-air conversations,

but they're always- only things that you put you in a good light. Christian, go ahead. I was just going to say, wait, there's more Schmodel. We just have a lot of questions. So let's get to this. It's not about Schmodeown, though. It's about your show.

It's trending. If it were to smash, if it hits its goal anyway, I think you're going to do something because you're all about the reciprocity and like you'd be so appreciative of your fans. And if it smashes it, I can't imagine you not doing what you just said. That and more, right? Yeah, more. That's what I mean. Going over.

Yeah. I mean, how great. And so I keep telling people. We'll talk about this more once we get through the questions. Like, I'm going to stay on for a bit. And you guys will do the same thing that we've been doing. You guys ask questions. Don't have to be super chats. Ask them.

I'll be here. If you want me for another supersized show, I will be here. They've been fun to do. So we'll do that. But I want to make sure that we use Chris and Kevin's time wisely. Mitch Mack, what are your opinions on Mike Judge taking Beavis and Butthead Wright's back? Does that include King of the Hill Wright and Darius spinoffs? I didn't even know.

this was the thing. Did you guys know about this, Chris? I did not, but his creations. It's his. So good. I always love when. I always love when that happens. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, I mean, Mitch, I'm sorry. I don't know. Yeah. I mean, my opinion is great. Was he not part of it when it was at MTV? I guess not. I mean, maybe, I don't know, maybe lost the rights to it a paramount or something. Lord Zucco, love Lithgow. He doesn't work for me as Dumbledore. Fair enough. We got to see how he does once. I felt like, yeah, I felt that was the one thing that sold me on. I was like, damn, he's a good. Dunned Dundermelf fan

Kevin are you Aren't you worried about your legacy if you were to return and not perform as well you used to I loved you in the movie to Rue Schmoney and I loved you and Mark too I'll answer this quickly because I know you want to get on

from the Shmona episode It's a live show allegory that I talk about Four blocks east, west, north and south of a live show We were like the Beatles If you saw people They would recognize us

They'd know us And when me and Chandra were hiding At Spectacular 4 No one's supposed to know That we were going to be the last segment We were hiding and my wife was trying to, she's like, oh, why don't you meet us to the coffee shop real quick? We had to get something.

And me and Chandra were on the side and we almost thought about going. And as we turned, we see a whole mess of people walking with all their Shmowdown shirts on. If they saw me and Chondru standing there, they would have known us. So this allegory of like, but then if I want four blocks east, no one knows me, right? Same thing. It's four years removed. And Christian has had to overly explain what the Shmodown is. He's been on this show now for four years on the air.

A lot of people don't know. And so for legacy, for me, it's more about having that opportunity. needed to perform live for my daughter. It's like a reunion, seeing all the old competitors, and even winning or losing, having fun, I don't care about legacy because for the four years that the Schmodeon was away, the Reddit was pretty much dead, the Facebook, no one's talking about legacy. So I'm not going to lose an experience because I'm worried about my legacy. I'm going to go there and have fun. And if I got knocked out, I don't care. I would give Mike a smile and a hug or Parker a smile and a hug. And I would be so happy that I got to return. And I'd be so happy that it's a result of

your Kickstarter starting and you got your show on the there's nothing but good things happening out of this. So for me, legacy doesn't matter. I know what I did and I'm just going to have fun. I'm to treat it like a reunion, you know? People should discover his legacy by joining the Vault channel if you haven't, if you haven't seen it yet.

What a segue. Alexander Wilson, box office trackers are saying that pre-sales ticket data for end games releases that it's topping avatar is the highest grossing movie all the time. I think that's definitely going to happen. Yeah. Now the question is how much? but I think it's definitely going to happen

I think it's like 120 million that it needs to make overall Chris in order to yeah that's what PLD put in the chat here at 1.2 to break even is what it needs so what one you mean oh no you're talking you're talking about doomsday oh sure sorry sorry sorry 100 million

200 200 million to get the 3 is to get the 3 billion oh I forgot to read 200 200 million is to get the 3 billion 120 or something is to beat average guitar. So something like that. Scott Horowitz, I discovered the Schmowdown and your show during the

pandemic and it really kept me going. We're watching the classic matches on the vault. It's awesome. Thank you for releasing. Yeah, we're glad that people are finding it. You know, like, and the first finals or the finals actually for the second singles tournament is coming up between Roka and Ellis. And we're actually going to release the press conference that they had, which was, have you ever seen that conference? And I never saw the press conference. I never saw the press conference. I just watch it today. It's awesome. Do you remember the press conference, Peele of the? It was so good.

It was so stupid, but it was so good. We had, like, fake, you know, like, oh, and I came out and tried to do, like, the Dana White thing at the top. But, like, we had, like, Perry Nemeroff and Josh, like, asking questions from the distance, right? And they, like, got into each other's faces. It was, it was good.

It was, like, it was the lead-up to the finale. And the winner would play Dan Merrill for the championship in the first ever Shmowdown Spectacular. And we're going to air, the way, the way, is we're going to do the Shmodeown Spectacular, by the way, is we're going to do, a it's a it's a it's like a six hour event I'm gonna p because I release when the way what we released them originally was in parts I'm gonna release the whole damn thing as a big

huge thing but I'm gonna do it as a premiere yeah that'll be fun so people if they want to check it out when the when the spectacular it'll be the it's the season finale of it so all your pay-per-views should be premieres well the paper views for sure yeah right the and then the, you know, we'll probably, I was going to do the tournament finale, but maybe not. Alexander Wilson, one movie that has a chance of hitting $3 billion is Utopia 3. The movie blew up in Asia. It's the all-time, the all-time grossing Hollywood movie in China, thoughts. Still, but what did it make overall?

You can we get a number of that? I bet you it didn't even hit two. So I don't think three is really, I don't think it has a chance. Regardless, I mean, you could probably, maybe get, maybe it's the, one of the first, is there ever an animated movie that hit two? Is there? I don't know. The $2 billion club is a very exclusive club.

People don't realize that. And this is, yeah, Zootopia 3. Have the movies exponentially made more money? I thought Zooten made less than the first. No, no, no, no. Two made, two made at least, two made pretty good. Two made $1.8 billion. So it came close.

It came close. so it would have to make you know another a little more than a billion in order to do that I just don't think that's going to happen but um because the reason like endgame my prediction from doomsday into endgame

the sequel essentially to doomsday or to endgame rather is not far off from okay the last one did 2.8 or 2.9 or whatever it did so to jump into 3 billion not crazy but go from 1.8 to 3 that's that's uh that's tough the Chinese movie the Naysia made 2.2 billion

yes and that was animated I assume okay Alexander Wilson one movie that we did that really okay Michael D somehow Smet's return welcome back me yeah we're glad he's back yeah and by the way

I just I came out of the gate hot but also somewhat k-fabe mode I mean on subsequent weeks I don't think I'm gonna be talking about it as much but I had some things to say when I was gone you did glad to be back okay Ron H.

Just letting you know that I... I think you skipped one. Where you did? Yeah. Scroll up. I'll get to it. I'll have to find it. Hon.

H. Just letting you know I got in cannabis related trouble. It resulted in arresting. You told me the suspension of license for 90s and Ronnie and Poundy. You said this yesterday. She was freed for five and you just got her back. 50 years clean now harder. Man.

Why is arrest in quotations? I don't know. Yeah, I know. If you can find the one that Kevin's talking about because I don't know what he saw. You. It was right. you had it on the screen for a second and then it went away. Is it the Atari fan for life line?

It's after Michael D. Somehow Smet's return. Yeah. Atari fan for life. About time, Kevin got to defend himself. Ha ha, this show has been so fun already and it's only 930. I mean, yeah, Kevin's back. That was nine. What time is it not?

10.45. That's what I'm saying. Well, yeah, I'm fine now. It's all good. It's all fun, by the way. If anybody gets mad about it, then they don't know what the Schmodeon was about. It's the doc, doc. That is the smash real low.

Welcome back, bro. Always team smash and team dungeon, and it'll be team Chris, too. Thank you. Thanks, Doc. I'll be cutting down, man. You so I'm getting, I'm sure to get boring. Better keep my pants off to remain interesting. Now, Christian, you have to watch Hollywood. Well, I got a lot going on right now. I don't know. I'll watch. Happy poop. Thank you, Mike. Go team. Thank you, Mike. Olympia. I think Dune's say sure you will be fine, but I'm not hyped. Olympia 75 says. The thing that will attract me is that they want more practical than the others. Real locations, less

CGI backdrops. always for that. I mean, I'm with you on that. That's why, that's why Asoka season two is a little more intriguing to me than Soca season one because actually the real locations. Getting out of the volume, huh? Yeah, that's what they say. Isaiah Smith. Dune 3 will probably be PG-13 like the other movies, and supposedly will have the shortest runtime of the mall, so I think one bill is possible.

I thought it was rated R. Wasn't it rated R? Was it PG-R? Maybe you're right. Maybe it was PG-30. I think I've said that before and been wrong about it, so I think you're right. Maybe it is PG-13. So, I mean, it's, I don't think it's not possible. I just don't think it's going to happen, especially with Doomsday there.

Nathan Drake, I love that picture. I love that picture so much. Mr. Cook. Mr. Cook. Chris, I think I'm with you on Doomsday, says Nathan Drake. I love Spider-Man, but I just haven't felt that hyped about Doomsday.

The quicker we get to X-Men, the better. Yeah, I mean, it seems like he's in your camp. And he says, so Steve Rogers not being called Cap anymore. No, because I think they will get themselves in trouble if they do that with the fact that then people are going to start to have the right thing with, because Anthony Mackie is is Cap right now, you know? And, yeah. everything has been Steve Rogers is returning.

Steve Rogers is this. Yeah. I wonder if someone will call him Cap, though, and maybe he'll made a nod and be like, hey, I'm not the cap anymore. He is. Maybe. Yeah, that's possible. Yeah. I've seen some people, too, doing more of, like, the Nomad thing with him too as well.

Yes. David Jardaya, what's up, David? That's why Chris is awesome, by the way, because she knows who Nomad is and stuff like that. She knows her, she is well read. She knows. Yep. Mary Jane and Peter's relationship in the old Spider-Man movies is the perfect example of a toxic relationship, 100%.

She is so bad. Yeah, it's really. bat. Nathan Drake, it's weird seeing a lantern in a sit-down job interview. I thought in the comics the rings just came to them and that's it. Well, I mean, but they changed. I didn't have a, look, I can also say I wasn't like a big lanterns guy growing up. So I didn't really have an attachment to the fact that the rings found him. I thought they explained it well enough of like, well, the rings normally found them, but this time we're recruiting. They changed it up a little bit. But also, it's not because the guy died like they're, well, I don't want me too spoiler about it.

There's a reason why he's being interviewed, and it's because there's already a lantern out there. Not getting too spoil early. They get a little more into it. And I think it sets you up, too, for how the universe should work, because it's very rare for our planet to have this many lanterns, but Earth, Tara, however you want to view it in here, is, like, so weird compared to the rest of the galaxy

that we're going to have some more lanterns. And the adjustments they made, I really urge a lot of you to go back and read that original John Stewart comic, because so much of the essence of that is in this, of who this character is and why this is happening the way it is. Yeah. So yeah, I guess June, by the way, you got the note that both of them were PG-13,

so I know why I thought it was hard. Okay, Yoshimitsu, so happy that Smets is back with his games. Hope last month's work all went well. It did, thank you. And I'll be back. And like I said, Chris, it's a little, Christian. It's a little tough this week, but I'm going to be full force back on shorts next week, too. I already built it into my schedule.

Having two jobs at once taught me how to wake up early and how much you can actually get done in the first four hours before everybody else get to trade you know it's also and we have we have we have a we have a couple left in the in the bullpen right now so i'll put a few of today um j morgan coyote versus acme was great surprised how emotional i got every wb exec who wanted to shelve it should all take a long unpaid vacation well it's also you know it's like wow it's like there's there's the yes and the no side of that right well like it looks like for me i still think what ketchup entertainment did was was the best They rescue that movie.

And from what people say, I still need to see it. It's supposed to be really, really good. But it's still not going to make money. And Warner Bros. sold it off. And so they were able to sell it off.

So business-wise for them, you know, it made sense, but it's just shitty that you hire them in Greenlight in the first place and then shelve it. But if it's a good movie, you take a shot on it.

Imagine those actors, too, after, I mean, I still my heart breaks for Brendan Frazier. Like, and say what you will about what that Batgirl movie would have been. apparently like his firefly was really good or like he had he did a really good turn on it and when you spend that much time on something and for it to never come out like it's got to be devastating and so like those actors on good for the actors i remember um them talking about it like when it was shelved they were so bummed they're like it's a really good movie like this is shocking um all right let's see next one after that the g man lanterns lioness and reach are all killing it yeah people have been raving about all three of them so jay morgan is Is it meet, meet or beep beep?

What the hell is that? Oh, Roadrunner. Oh, meet, me. Oh. It always is written beat, beep, but it said, yeah. Yoshimitsu, following the Kickstarter is like a wish listing, a game on Steam.

It costs nothing and helps the project's visibility a lot to it. Yeah. That is such a good analogy. This is my point is that, you know, for everybody who's watching this right now, anybody who hasn't hit that button, how come? And then the other side of it,

is, you know, if you're watching on the replay, just hit the button. It'll help a lot. Nathan Drake, Smetch channeling the wild thing. No sleeves. Yep. There you go. Sorry. Forg. One thousand jewels. Thank you, Squall. What's a jewel? Is a jewel, is that a dollar a jewel? So did we win the week? No. Johnny Petrieza. Christian, respectfully, watch fire and ice. There's a lot of things I need to watch. Ron H. Smetts know about this Hollywood.

an odyssey of mine he does now watch the pilot smet's i ron h implore you be better with than that christian watch it please i watched the first five minutes ron h a loss can make you stronger than you thought it can be that's true i've lost a lot it sucks but i'm stronger for it don't fook with this lose you regret it one of ape i mean when sober l-ol ron you got one of these days you got to put a video out i mean you have i'm so curious what you you have to look like all right so we currently we have about like four of these super chats left so what i'm going to now is same thing that I did and I have been doing. If we want to do a super-sized show with myself, any questions you have about the pilot, any questions in general that you have about the

Kickstarter coming up, about what we can do as a community together, anything in general that you want to know about, you're curious about it, whether it's the production of the TV, any other things that you're curious about, please ask, if you're something you're on the fence about saying, oh, I don't know if I'm going to back yet, but if this guy answers me this, I might consider it. Please ask, does not be super chat. Just throw it in there now. And we'll start starring those. Ron H. My arrest was testing in an interrogation room, blood sampling, then let go with a court summons for some time in October. It's considered an arrest. Oh, okay. Okay. Well, there you go. Thank you for doing that. It's one of my business. So thank you very much.

I was being nosy. Yeah, Dilda Pickle. Missed most of the show, but I wanted to support Chris and Kevin. Kickstarter is also going strong and I'm only getting more excited. Our show is trending. I really loved that whole thing, how we kind of came up with that, you know, that idea that the show itself is called trending. We came up with this thing on this show, which is our show. And then it just all kind of the synergy of our show is trending. It tells you what our show is. And then the fact that it hopefully will be trending. You know, so it's like, it kind of, it kind of all worked together. Brilliant name and all that. I wonder how SEO would work though when searching for it. I know. I'm curious about it. If you look right now, we're like, we're kind of like the number one

upcoming TV thing that's coming up, but we'll see, we'll see how it works up. I'm curious. That's, this is a good question. Vermeer Bulldog. Are you, Chris, you more hype for Dune 3 or Dume's Day? Oh, Doomsday. Yeah, you just did not like June. I don't like June. No, that makes me sad.

Armada, 8YT, since rewatching the Shmode on season three, I forgot how many rom-com questions are. I kind of felt that era had harder questions around one. That era in the beginning had the hardest questions. season three until season four like there are really hard questions and like round one and stuff too i specific now the credit where the credit needs to be given and it hasn't been and i and i actually feel really bad about it pl d and and and pj get all the love for the writer stuff they were not the original writer chris right chris kaliski was the original writer and he did it he didn't

have he did it all by himself he did it all by himself and he did it all by himself and he did as much as he could and he was not prepared with how big the show got because he had to do a lot so like and you know we mark and i had to tell me never never reprimanding him but i was like dude if you can like maybe make those a little easier in round one and i mean he should give people a chance in round one and he's like and he did what he could i mean but he ran he did it for so long but he's just you know he had enough is enough i don't blame him but it got but there was a really tough ones and we wanted also make it accessible to the audience that they could play along too. And so for a while, I don't know why I eat almonds.

Every time I eat them, for some reason, are you going to die on camera? Every time I eat almonds, I like something that happens. I'm like, I like almonds, but they always, I don't know, maybe I have a slight allergy to them, but I shouldn't do it. Anyway, they change mid-season for. That's why I give a lot of credit to your wins early on,

when some people were like, oh, like Harloff couldn't hang. Harloff, you were like, your early success happened when the questions were harder, dude. Dude, that match with Merle, the two of us, we missed basically everything. Two of us missed everything. And then it was, it's a terrible match. I just happen to know that, like, so Chris will probably get this, but I don't know if you'll remember this, Kevin. Maybe you will because you're a pops. But who was the voice of the Lion Mayor in Zootopia?

The Lion Mayor in Zootopia? J.K. Simmons. Right. Now that's, now that's one that, again, an animation fan would know immediately. A dad would probably know pretty quick. And that's why I knew it. But a lot of people didn't know that one when I got it. Rodney Romper. Well, Martini used a team I accounts. No, because the thing was that, you know, we didn't know how that account was going to blow up the way that. Right? And like, so I don't, she's not really, you know, telling a lot of people that it's her. You know, it's like, so on Friday, she'll be in here too. But like, and that came from, you know, originally I was telling everybody because I didn't know. Then she's like, I'm not really telling me. It's kind of like an anonymous thing.

So is that going to stay like that? Like, I don't know. People can ask her on Friday if they want. But she's coming in and she's going to be on tomorrow. Oh, and the show will start a little later tomorrow. It's going to start normally starts at 11. Our time, or no, that's not true. It usually starts at year 1230 or 9.

It'll start at 930, your time, 1230, my time. The G-Man. Christian, Hiddleston and Atwell, much ado on Broadway in October. Oh, man. I actually think I heard that. I think I actually heard that. Let's see. Armada.

Also, Iron Man had an unfinished script when filming. That is true. That is very true. Yes. So did Jurassic Park 3. Yes. Good Lord. That you could tell.

KC.G. One of those lovely people who watch TV holding my phone. I started watching the bear and put my phone down within five minutes. Editing Ensemble, fantastic. Yeah. I am very happy that that's kind of one of the tones. When you look at hacks, you look at the bear and like I said, a sprinkle of Californication, that's kind of what we're going for.

All right. Ron, I'll set it before us. I said again, this show, this community, you're my therapy. Thank you, Ron. I love you all. You keep me laughing, keep me going, and I can always go back to it. Now watch Hollywood. I never heard you said, him.

Okay. Blake, quick, have you reached out to Robbie Fox? That's actually no. You know what? And I know Robbie pretty well. Thank you. I said, this is why I ask you guys to do this stuff because I will reach out to Robbie. And now I just wrote that down.

To promote your show on your mom's basement, you would fit well in their regular show or possibly on their lanchard's spoiler reviews. Well, do me favor. Do me favor, do me favor. I see Robbie and Robbie always responsible. He was in here. He was in the studio, I think last year, would be on Matt Sarah's show. So I can reach out to Robbie, but give him a nudge. Okay.

So let's see. Is a TMI character from the character? as SNL history. Currently in the script, yes. Yes, it is. So that was, you know, okay, I didn't know if that was public knowledge, but yeah. Well, I mean, we talk about in how the, you know, the script that there's,

there's a character that basically they keep asking her to do in interviews and stuff too, and she's just like, oh, she's over it. And then it happened to be. That's where it started from. Okay. So, we're at 68 questions. Here's how it's going to work. I'm going to say goodbye to Chris.

And if Kevin wants to stick around, And Chris, if you want to stick around too, you can. But if you've got to go, you've got to go. So, but what I want to do is give Chris an opportunity to tell people where you can find. They're muted, muted, muted. It would help if I wasn't muted. You can find me at It's Chris Carr on Instagram. If you'd like some more of my podcasts, go check out two filthy casuals wherever you get your podcasts.

You guys, we are so close to being able to go live on YouTube. Amy Newman and I live on YouTube, unedited, feral as we are. Please allow that to happen. Put us in the background while you're hanging out. It'll be so much fun. And this Friday, Amy is actually going to do a straight from horror nights episode talking about her experience there. So it's going to be super, super great. If you're interested in voiceover, head on over to speakfriendstudio.com.

And yeah, that's pretty much my stuff. Kevin Smets, where can I find you, bud? I've been slack. I mean, I've been working, so I have not updated any of my things. So you could find me next week on this show, and then I'll tell you more. That's totally fair. Again, so if you got, Chris, you got somewhere to be? I have to be somewhere at 1130.

And by be somewhere, I mean, my dog's getting groomed. Okay. Well, it's up to you. Like I said, if you want to stick around, hang out with this? Yeah. I can stick around right now. I'm waiting. I just got to wait.

When I get an email, then I got to go. And I'm just going. You guys stick around. And now it's 69 comments. So let's go. We go. And currently, and we are at on the actual, we're at 1920. 1920.

We're 80 away in 2000 today. We're going to hit 2000 today. And if we hit 2000 today, Christian will be, to speak a five-minute speech about how the Smashers is his favorite character of all time. He's one of them. Let's see. So let's see. Joseph Ashley, how many best friends would your character have on this show?

Well, one, currently. One is the the guy who's kind of been keeping him afloat, really. Let's see. Haskell. Christian, you should also reach out to Kevin Mark. Yeah, I am. They're on my list, for sure. Because I'm going to Ralph Carmen was already

great and said that I can come on and go check it out. What about CVV? Can you do him or no? Well, the problem with CVV, I'm going to reach out to him, but I don't know what he, I'm not, he's not going to have me on to talk wrestling. And his audience wouldn't give a shit about if I was coming on there, too. They're not, he's not going to do that.

And he doesn't even have like anybody else on besides wrestlers. So I wouldn't really ask him to do that. I mean, at the very least, you like, retweet for you. He'd probably either do a retweet or I could maybe even have him on the show to talk and then we could, you know, take some kind of stuff. I say Johnny Petriza has Matt Sir read the script. He has not read the script, but he knows about it. He's super encouraging

about it. He's really become one of my really good friends, and he's a really great guy, and he's super encouraging, and he's all, what I want eventually, if the series goes, is that he you know, he, he like teaches the character

jihitsu. But the thing is that the character's just kind of like, I got to do this. It's, it's It's a whole, it's a whole thing. But Matt already said that he would do it, which would be great. Let's see. I'm still looking, still looking.

Oh, yeah, by the way, someone in chat said it. You used to write for WWE. Yeah. That could get you on there to just talk about wrestling, but I don't think you're watching. But still, I mean, you know, I don't know. I know. I know what I might do, and it's just want to, like, lob it and see, I might reach out to Stephanie's people and say, because we just did,

Matt just did her show and Chris Vee just did Chris Van Bleet just did her show and maybe, you know, lob it out there and see, but probably, you know, probably there'd probably be a no, but I'll double and check it on see. Let's see, anything else here too. As for pro. He has a lot of great questions. How much of your own vision and idea for the series do you hope translates into the screen? I mean, I hope all, I hope all, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope all of them.

Also, when working on a project like this, how do you ensure the ideas are translated? Well, that's the beauty of doing it the way that we're doing it. And so if we, let's say apps that we overperform and we have a healthy budget to get the the actors that we want, the crew that we want, the locations that we want, the music that we want, everything that we need to make this the best version of it. I mean, that's that, and then you just, you just trust in the material. And that's really it. Okay.

And then the next one here's Ron. If you ever get a chance to speak to Kevin, I hope you tell him about trending and perhaps my Hollywood quest. Tell him my MP. I mean, I will. I'm going to reach out to him. I'm going to reach out to him. And then, let's see, trying to see what else.

Sorry, I'm going to keep looking. There's Sam. I was about to ask about Matt Sarah, and if appearing on his channel, it would be part of motion. Oh, yeah. I mean, easily. You know, he and I probably do a whole shoot-the-shit episode where we do them together. And yeah, yeah, I'll do some more stuff with Matt.

100%. Um, okay. Joseph, what is the name of your character and the female character? My name is, is Danny and her name is Kelly. Does she have friends that you don't like that you make fun of it?

I don't make fun of them necessarily, but she does have friends. You know, it's like I'm, I'm the ex-husband. So the ex-husband is always not the, the favorite person. Yeah.

Uh, okay, let's see. Do you think that your show is going to benefit by all that drama happening with, um, everyone asked us about with, uh, with Tom Segora.

Yeah, it's like a stranger than fiction, right? Like it just shows that your show is relatable and could happen. I know. Let's see. Ryan Kelby, you could talk about how wrestling is today versus the past.

I mean, you know, I got to, I'll talk to him, but I know, he knows, listen, he knows his,

what really pops. He doesn't Chelsea Green on today. Like he's got, I just don't know if that it's going to, that would necessarily work. Johnny Petrieza, would you have Carrying Cross in the show down the line? So you have anything in mind.

I would have anything in mind? I would absolutely have carrying across him. And I like, Kevin's a great guy. He's a great dude. Are you friends with him? Yeah, yeah. He came in for match show a couple times too and I keep in touch with him. He's a good guy.

So yes, I absolutely. That makes me happy to know he's a good guy. Yeah. Okay, let's see. Idea. I know it's crazy hell Mary, but it's a small town. Wow. That's a, that's a tougher one to just, you know,

then you need to start reaching out to everybody's show. I was like, sure, I didn't do it. But like, I, and is. Were you friends with him? I was friendly with him. I wouldn't say that I was. friends with him. Like when he was at the comedy store, like, you know, he just like, I would, I told you the first thing he ever said to me, right? When I, when I, when I told me, he was like,

oh, I thought you were a Dane Cook. I was going to punch you in the face. And then, but he was, you know, him and Dane were fine, but I would say, it was. And then we were, and he used to talk about, you know, MMA. And every time I'd see him, he would, he, he'd be cool. And he, because he was really good, and he still has good friends with Ari. And I was friends with Ari. And, and Steve and Steve Simone and other people too. So, and Rick Ingram, Rick Ingram and all those guys. It sounds repetitive, but like, you know the bad friends guys and then you also know. Well, I probably reach out.

Like, what about those guys? Yeah, I'll reach out to them. I'm going to reach out to them. I'm just not guaranteeing anything. You know, my thing is, there's a couple of things that I need to happen to then say, that gives me a little bit more ammo to then reach out to these people that I already know and say, well, look at this. What do you think about?

this and I and I think that ammo could be coming so we'll see um okay I'm looking I'm looking Joe this show from your point of view or will be switched between to two characters I don't want to give you too much yet but yeah but I'll just say it's it's 50 50 it's 50 so I'll give you that at least um okay this has been one of my favorite shows in a while thank you Griffin love when smet's is paired with Chris have a great Labor Day weekend all there you go Oh, thanks. Yeah. And I always love doing shows with Chris.

That's yeah. It's always fun. I'm glad we're both spicy today. Because I feel like both of us are usually very happy and positive. So I'm glad both of us being like, hey, you know what? And I like that our version of spicy is like, you guys are being kind of poopy. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. We're not really mean or mad or just kind of like. Did you not know that? We're PG mad. We're like, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Go to, go to, uh, Christian Harloff meets the rock.

It's like even on the short, you'll see, you'll see. That's why I work there. Let's see, I'm trying. I'm going. Let's see. Apps. Somewhere. Apps.

Could you also talk about having Andrew on purely from a collaborative standpoint, as in talk to me about talking to him about the ideas you have for the show and his response to it? Sure. I mean, look, there'll be more conversations like that. And these are the type of things again. I got to go. Sorry. Go ahead.

Jump, jump, jump, jump. Love you guys. See you guys later. Thanks, Kev. Well, that's you. We just got me. Let's go. I know. Beat it. There we go.

I like to be. Yeah, I'm sorry. That's okay. PLD will take your, we'll take your spot when you, when you leave. Because I'm going to be here. I love this. They're going to be here for a bit. We'll ask as many questions you guys want.

I'll stay for, I got, I got time today, so I'll stick around and talk to you. I love talking about this stuff with you guys and everybody still, like these types of questions I love, right, as well. because, you know, when Andrew is on again, ask him these questions, and he'll be on live. So these are types of things I want people to ask him. But as far as collaborative, I mean, look, I've known Andrew 25, 26 years, right? So, like, we know each other pretty well. We know our sense of humor pretty well. We've also watched the kind of things that he's done as a producer and the ideas that he has.

And so I'll have certain ideas and certain things. And then he'll throw things back at me that I'm like, he's just, he's just played at such a different level that I have. That I'm like, oh, yeah, I didn't really think about it that way that I, that way in the production side of things. And then I'll think, well, but I know the characters sold that I have this and the martini. Martini I work well with, like really well with. And so I'll even like even, even yesterday, there was something that we were looking at. And then for the video and she had wrote back, well, what about this, this, this and this. And in my initial head, I'm like, ah, well, that doesn't make sense.

If we do it that way, I'm like, well, wait a minute. That actually, what she just suggested makes a lot of sense. But I necessarily don't want to lose that part. So then I called her and explained why I think we needed that part. She said, oh, yeah, that makes sense too. And we just, we get each other. Like, and how the creative side of it works. And that's why me, her and Andrew work together pretty well.

Okay, let's see. A lot of people love Chris Carr. I understand why. Let's see. Joseph Ashley, anyone you interviewed might podcast. possibly yes to guest be on your show like Matthew Lillard. I mean, Joe, this might not be the answer that everybody kind of wants for this, but it's going to be kind of a standard thing, right?

And it's like, look, if we get to a place again, as I mentioned, that we're almost at 2,000 followers on Kickstarter, and then we launch on the 22nd, and we overperform. And we get to a place where we're way past the comfortable budget. And now we're in a budget where we're like, you know what? We can now make offers to, we only had this amount to make for that one, one actor that we thought we could get and we were going to use that budget. Now we can make for two. Shit, now we can make it for.

And maybe there is a role that Matt Lille would be grateful. There's, there are 100%. Now, what that would look like, what that would cost. I have no idea, but 100%. Uh, yeah. Let's see. I'm going, I'm looking at some more questions. We'll go through them.

And here's another one. Lucia Deval. Does your show have an opening theme song? This was asked a little earlier. Do you keep mentioning calumification? That show is one of the best opening theme song. You really had a good one. You really had a good one.

So we don't at the moment. And so, Lucia, again, that's part of the process that we're offering for the tiers, that the suggestions, the formation of it. Because, Chris, imagine if you're a backer and you ask, like, Lucia, she says, do you guys have a team? We're like, no, we don't. But then you're in on the meeting when we start talking about the theme song. And you see the inception of, oh, well, so-and-so suggested this.

Oh, that would be great. And you're in the meeting watching, oh, well, let's try it here. Let's try it this. Let's try it that way. And then you actually see the theme song of the inception to actually being chosen. I love that. Right? Yeah.

Yeah. So Brooke, a montage with Jack Johnson's on could be epic. I have, I mean, I have so many different songs. Even one today that I found. I said, oh, yeah, there's a lot of. my favorite is hopefully we can get the rights to this song i mean it really i really need to because the ending of this episode needs this song it really needs it um and i'm hoping that we can get it so uh okay greenie from oz who's your ultimate dream casting for your show well i don't

want to say that yet because you know like let's say and i don't necessarily i guess for well i guess you tell me, Chris, like I could say an actor, but just not say the role, because what I don't want to do is say, you know what? Who's my, my dream casting for this role is this. And then we don't get that person. And then we get someone else really great. And they're like, yeah, but you said you were, I wasn't your first choice. You know? So I would tell you that one of the, you know who I would love to be able to get into this show is, uh, is Jason Lee. Oh, heck yeah. I love him. He, yeah, 100%. Uh, how do we send these non-superjeet? Like, you just, did it. Just did it. You just did it. There you go. Will most of it be scripted in some parts,

like jokes will go off script? I'm sure there's going to be improv. Yeah, but we're going to follow the script because we're very proud of it. Ron H. Assuming trending is picked up and all that. Any chance for season two or season three, you have a character that might be an allegation of us in the community part, me, Derek Johnson, Maddie B. There's always going to be, I mean, like, there's, the chat has to, because I don't know how much want to give away, but yes, there's going to be audience involvement in things of that nature

for sure. Okay, hilarious. No, Julia Robert Green from us, that's kind of obvious, don't you think? It's Julia's for what? What was the answer? What was the question? Just dream casting. Oh, Dream casting. Yeah, yeah. I mean, are you kidding? Of course. But But also in a love scene is invented for the episode. It wasn't there before.

Not of my wife has anything to say about it. But I would tell you that no, when it comes to that particular casting, well, we'd have to probably shatter. We'd probably have to shatter the Gills record by like 20. Yeah. Okay, let's say. Anything else? We still should get some again. Okay, Jay Morgan.

Christian, what number of draft is a script to shoot? with I just finished draft number five. Oh man, you know, I'd have to go through the whole thing because it's, it's hard to say the numbers. That's a good question to ask tomorrow and martini's on because she usually does the updates on all those too. And we've gone back and forth on like even when we're taking out a few jokes and then putting some back in.

So I, you know, I don't, I don't know. I have to double check with that for sure. Your character can be really good making breakfast. It's the minute details. Yeah, maybe so. That's true. No. No, again, we don't know yet.

We don't know. Okay. Casey, I never noticed a theme song on the pilot. I think it's on episode two after it's picked up. Well, yeah, because you starting get familiar with it. Sure, 100%. Okay, Joseph Fascia. Love Law and Order and Mandalorian.

Maybe this one had Chili Popper's theme song for the show. Yeah, I mean, like I said, it's just a matter of how it all forms together first and how Andrew's even piecing it all together. To see where we can fit that in. Apps Pro, do you have a serious buy? Well, Christian, yes, maybe one that has everything you intend to do with the characters and their stories and episodic structure into one case. I do. I have, Martina and I went over this. We have between, I would say that you could get in here between five to six seasons, if not a little bit more on what we have right now with where it's going to go. But yes, we do have that for sure. All right, Chris, let me see what we have. We were at 1920 last night. Checked right now, we are at 1922. Okay. It's a good show. 1922. Yep. We're almost there. So let's see.

Princess positive. What's up? Is this the kind of show where a piecemaker's style dance opening would make sense? No. No, not for this one. Like I said, Princess, this is more of a, you know, like, and this is what I love. I guess the other question I was asked about Andrew, he really understood kind of what we were going for. And these people should feel real. Like, it's funny. And there's common. There's jokes. but they should feel real. It does, you know,

like where it's not going to be like total, um, sitcomy. So yeah. Um, okay, let's say. Ask my sister to follow the Kickstarter.

She said, of course. And I told her about your Clancy Brown dad idea and she loved it. Oh, thank you. Uh, I mean, that's,

that's my, that is my dream cast. So for that, but that there's no, he's not, he's not, he, the dad is not in the pilot.

But the, the goal, like, the, it would be great if to have Clancy Brown as, as the, I really, I, I see the scene because I know kind of what the dynamic is. He's got a brother and a sister. And I know the dynamic with the three of them and how that all plays out.

And I could see Clancy Brown in it. Ioshe. What's your character's birth order? As, oh, as far as he is, he is, he is the middle. He's the middle. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. The sister's youngest. He's got an older brother and he's the middle. Julie probably no there is a there is a role truth be told in in about season season three that if if if you know it was all lined up it would be great the chances are what a zero or zero point point point point one that you get her but that's that's what would be um let's see oh Paul watch our house is field day I got to actually reach out to him again because I'm going to interview him soon. He would be perfect for this one particular role, but he's a little too young.

But he'd be perfect for it. He's perfect in everything, but he'd be perfect. Let's say, is Game of Thrones the best modern TV theme song. It's pretty damn good. I didn't watch a show at sometime. My grandma knew this song. It's pretty damn good before. Oh, she knew it before she died. I'm telling you, Sam, yeah, it was, it was great. 100%. Yeah, it was great. I love that it was so that part in the guy is I love that. Your grandma knew it. Yeah. Joseph Ashley, how do you know, they want to see more after the pilot. Well, I mean, it depends on who they is that you're talking about. Like if you're talking about, we go to a streamer with it and then like, hey, this really works. And one

streamer is interested, but they don't see the vision. They go, we want to do this, this and this. Like, okay, maybe this is, they're not interested in this particular thing. And we have to kind of see what our options are. Or it's, there are a few streamers that are interested in it. I mean, you kind of go around looking at it that way. it's the audience really into it. And then again, in a, in a, let's look at every quantum physics type thing,

any reality is possible. And we have, we raised enough that we're like, you know what? Let's just shoot the series. Let's shoot the season. And then pitch the season. I think that I feel like that's what tires did season one.

I think the tires, they shot season one. I don't even think he shot the pilot. I think he shot the season. Pileadie, am I right about that with tires? I think so. I think he shot the whole season. And that would be great to do too.

I got a head out now. Have so much fun you guys. Thank you. Thank you for staying around even for a little bit. You're the best. Thank you so much. Of course. Bye.

Thank you. All right. So we're going to keep doing this, guys. And like I said, we'll do a super show again. I'm cool with it. I told you I'm going to be doing this for the next two months. I'm going to hang out with you guys. If you guys want to stick around with me and ask questions and you're curious about it,

if I'm telling you that it's going to be, you know, all of our show, you should know much, as much about it as possible. So, let's keep going. And Nerd Virgin, thank you also. I know you want to shop it, but you, what channel streamer do you envision for our show? Well, that's definitely something I don't want to say yet because I think that, first of all, I think that they all, there's a lot of them have benefits. And the other side of it is, I haven't met with anybody.

So I would be missed to say, oh, you know, know who would be great is so-and-so. I haven't met with any. I know as a fan, which ones I really enjoy, but as far as sitting down going, oh, well, they understand the vision of it. They, oh, they see it going this way. They wanted to do that with it. Oh, they really got that scene when we shot it, and they got the comedic stuff with it. They wanted to do this with it now. Oh, they have connections to that and they want to do that with it. Oh, they see the vision. Nate brought that up. We didn't even think about that. They might be the spot. You know what I mean? So, like, I don't want to, I don't want to say yet. Well, there's, yeah, go ahead.

did shoot it all in one season right away. You can stick around. Let's just stay and just stay with me. They shot it on, on one season. That's why I thought he raised, you raised the money or took or got the money from his sponsorships, I think from his podcast is what he did, saved it up and then and then made the first season. Like that's,

that would be, I mean, perfect. But, you know, but I'm not, I just am not going to, I start with going because you need, if you put it into comparison, if you're going to make, let's say seven episodes. right of season or six i think you did six for season one but you're going to do six and then you really look at let's say between three to five hundred per episode is really what you know if you're going to make a full series of television you do the math on that or what and but hey if you but

in comparison to the guild if you looked at the guild and you did what the guild did then that's a new conversation you know what i mean then it's a new conversation so um oh the other side this is something and Martini just told me this, too. The other thing that she's like, make sure that you keep telling people about this. This is really, really important. So there is a, the thing that we're offering on the Kickstarter

is the masterclass thing about starting a YouTube channel. And I think that's going to be really beneficial to people too. So hopefully people will go and check that out. And I think people are really going to be interested in that. So we're going to be doing some. Maybe I'll go for that. Maybe you should. Mike Rios, is there a Kramer type of character in the show like in Sainville?

There's a, no, because it's not that kind of level, but there is a kind of quirky character for sure. Let's see. What else? Okay. Oh, Dill the Pickle. I'm glad to see you planned out that far. Yeah, this is what I said when Kevin said before. I am not bullshitting you guys.

I promise you from the bottom of my heart that I just want to tell this story. I love this story. Like when Sam came in and she was sitting. here and I was talking to her and she was going to because she had read this script and then she was she had seen some of the video for it she she loves absolutely loves martini and she's like your chemistry is crazy and I go it's it it's playing off that but she's like so what happens here and I started telling her mapping out from where the characters go from seasons one two three four five like all these moments she's like oh my god I want to watch the show tomorrow and I was like that's kind of that's what I want to do you know so um yeah I'm pealtylyly you're going to say absolutely I was I said behind the scenes it's the same thing it's like he's not just bullshit Sydney on air. Like, you find the scenes. He talks to me all the time about it. And it's not, I can tell the genuine excitement he has and how much passion he has for this thing. I just want to tell the story. I just feel like people will enjoy watching the story of these two and how it progresses. Because there's so much more that can be told, especially with some of the stuff, the way that

media is today and the way things that they can do with it in his perspective and the way that he sees certain things and how generations sees certain things. So I think it'd be pretty interesting. Joseph Ashley, how many minutes did each show forgot to ask? Between like 28 to 30 minutes. Yeah. Okay. Going with a Mandalorian style.

Yeah. Scott Element. A Kickstarter tier where if there's a part of the show where a live chat is on screen that they're using it. There is. That is actually a tier. And is that it is in the pilot. So that 100% is.

Yoshi. How does it work? Pitching the pilot to streamers and channels. Do you send the pilot and wait for a response? Do you go in for an interview with studio? What's the process? That is, again, a good question to ask when Andrew's on the channel. I have my answers for it. But you should say that, Oshy, for when Andrew's on, because I want people to do the same thing.

I think when he's on next time, we'll talk a little bit about the stuff too, but then the whole entire thing will just be questions for him the whole time. Okay. I don't watch Potter because of the damage. That's fair. I mean, a lot of people feel that way, too, and people would, and I think that that's, I don't have a problem with that comment. I have a problem with if you would have followed it up with,

and you didn't, but if you would have followed up with it, and anybody else who does, then you, you don't have the right to tell other people to watch or not watch it. You just don't. You can say, I would rather people not watch it. I'm going to watch it, but I hope people don't, but you don't have the right to tell people not to or what they are if they do watch it.

That's where you don't have the right. You can educate, I think you can say, I don't watch it because. Because of this. And they can choose, and they can choose. It's their choice though. Scott Element.

Okay, that is a great idea. To actually have Christian channel usernames in chat room. Would we need to send? Well, that's a good question to find that out in general. But like that's, but yeah, that's a princess, that's already a tier.

It just hasn't been released yet, but that's already a tier. Christian, don't forget, you have a direct line of Cape Beac and sell now. That's true. Nour original. Yes, we do. Let's see.

Jay Morgan. You're an inspiration. It's making me think I can make my movies today. You absolutely should. should feel that way because the answer is this is what I'm talking about. The business is changing. Jay Morgan, it's changing. 100% you can find a way to make it and do it, at least proof of concept and those types of things. It's like, now is the time to jump on it and continue to try it. And when you get people who believe in it and they, you know, and they'll get behind you too.

And even and not necessarily even with people who are going to back and everything. It's just support. Like the first thing that had to come with it. it was the idea of telling martini's, oh, this could be really good if we did it this way, this way, this way, and then us vibing and laughing and coming up, and then coming up with a script and going, should we send this to friends and see what they think? Yeah, it's at that point.

And then friends going, okay, this, this is, and then it's just a process. And you've got to believe in yourself. And remember, and I brought this up the other day, and I'll bring it up again. My dad said this, most people will doubt you. And it's not because they're being dicks. Some people are.

but it's because in human nature, that's what we do. We doubt. But you have to go past that and you have to believe in yourself and you have to say, because there's going to be tons of people. I'm ready for, I'm going to Eminem this shit. There's going to be tons of people as this keeps going out there too. Guarantee it, I'll put $100 million on it. Then one, like, if this starts to get traction, just wait.

Is this the guy that blew up about Galaxy's Edge? And no, no, he's, oh, my God, is he busting his ass to do this? It's just, it's inevitable. It's like, I know I fucked up. I fucked up. I did the thing. And that's, I brought that into the script. I fucked up.

And you had a bad day at work. Nobody else had a bad day at work, ever. No one else is that a bad day at work, ever. I had a bad day of work. And the thing is, that will get brought up a million times over. I've got to be prepared for it. And I'm not going to go, oh, my God, those people don't like me. Not everyone's going to like you.

You just got to do your thing. Agreed. Yeah. Let's see. Haskell. Clancy is your dad. Frank Grillo is your brother. We need this to happen. Join the Kickstarter. Do it. Telling you. Do it.

Grillo. My mom? She's like five years old than me. No, no, no, no. Eight years old. No, wait. How old is she? 10 years old. He's got to go 10 years. Yeah. But still, not it to be my mom. Do you know that Sanja Bullock, 62? Can you believe that? 62. I know. That's crazy. Amazing. Yeah. Apps pro. I've been thinking about the character's conflict and the emotional core of the bear and to an extent, hacks. And for a very particular reason,

writers have gone fond of emotionally stunted character. Yeah. I mean, that's kind of definitely, they got issues. They got issues. Boomish Man, 7, that's a cool picture. How many episodes and seasons are you hoping to have? Also, will the series be based in one location

will it change over time? Like, you move him from L.A. to New York. I think it's mostly, I think it's mostly in L.A., at least for this what we've envisioned. I mean, there's probably some times where they have to travel to a couple places and be able to just one particular arc that martini and i thought of in a different location um but new york would probably be a thing because that's where he's from so new york would definitely be a location but the prime location would be l a now again in my head

i'm always and do not take any of this as bible you know because in my head i see eight to ten episodes per season at like between you know five to seven seasons you know i could do five or six right now, but I think you can push it to seven if you needed to. But yeah, so that's, that's kind of one thing. Let's say, now I can't stop picturing your character, having a dream nightmare scene would result on a peacemaker scene. I know, thank you, Saul. I guess you can't cast Pygneos for a pilot because of the series picked up, it'd be less likely to get them for an entire series, right? Not necessarily. No, because again, when you get proof of concept and you're doing one of these things where it's like, okay, look, you have these people who are locked into it. And there's

two things to that soul style. It's again, if we get to the place where you're overperforming like the guild, then you can make those deals up top or when you're making the deals with them up top that you can say, should this happen, should this get picked up, this, this, this and this. So yes, you absolutely can. It's just a matter of, you know, deals that are made. But that's why we have a company like boardwalk involved. That's why we have Andrew involved. Like they, they deal with this kind of stuff and they know how to deal with this kind of stuff. So, all right, let's see. I'm keeping, I'm keeping going. Deal the pickle. Might need a long shot, but a market supplier now has some distribution connections and

managed to release his move on his terms. Maybe you reach out to him. You know, if he wants to do an interview or something, too, we tried one time, and then they, they, they, they, they, I don't know, they passed. But I don't really know him that well. I wish him, I, you know, his movie was cool. Let's see. But did questions say he was cool, coo-c-cook-choo? Who? I don't remember who. Not sure. Yeah, let's see. Yeah. apps pro that perhaps maybe because it leaves adorable potential future installments but every prestige

production these days feels need to stretch their characters into extremes yeah i don't know about extremes again it's just real i think real is is a thing for me i want to do a real quick check and see last i checked we're at 1922 currently we're at 1923 one since the last check come on guys if you're in here right now now i get it if you're watching the other stuff but if you're in here right now talking about the show and you haven't followed you got to follow it you got to follow it you got to absolutely yeah it's it's in there right now um dunder support for your show krist and i will be donating thank you dunder yeah i mean that's that's what i'm that day one and day two is gonna be the biggest it's gonna be the biggest day for this channel's history is that day one

um joseph alexie i like one the main character butheads with female characters best friend like martin did with pam or martin or fred sanford just funny back and boy those would be those kind of moments for sure it's doc doc thanks for putting up with my smasher fanboy post all week oh please It was great. All out of love for the game. That's why I missed the Shmowdown. Good luck with trending. Thank you.

And I'm sure you'll be donating just to get Shmoudan back. I'm sure you want. And I appreciate that for sure. Let's see. Ron, what do you think? All by the end of the series,

are they together or not? That's a great question, because I know the answer to that. I know the answer to that. And I don't even P.L. He knows the answer to that. Yeah. I don't know if I want to know.

Yeah. I know the answer to it. So you guys can guess in the, I'm not going to tell you, but you can guess. And again, this is what I feel like today. And who knows if things happen and whatever too,

but I know in my mind what happens. In my head, I'm thinking like I'm the Sicilian and the Princess Bride and I'm trying to out thinking, well, you think that they wanted to be together, so they have it together. But then you know that, we know that I know that you know that I don't. Right, right, right. Are you hoping to cast XS&L cast members to cameo for awkward moments for a teen's heritage? Yes, and even if we don't necessarily get them, you know,

because look, look, the one thing you're going to have, have to also be prepared for is that you're going to have to change the name of SNL, right? You're going to have to probably change the name of it, but maybe you're lucky. I don't know. But yes, the things along that nature, yes, we already have a character that or down the road that would be pretty good. Get on Peacock, there you go. Yeah. Profit sharing once we get to season two, I think that meant for season three. We both like that. Maybe, maybe. Let's see. Yeah, I think Christmas Desire for this show comes from a good place. Can't wait until trying to

happens. Thanks, Doc. Yeah, I mean, that's the whole point. It's like, I really, I really do just want to tell this story. I promise you. I promise you. It's the fact you're talking, taking the time every show to do this has a lot. Yeah, I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it all the way through, all the way through, because we're going to have really long shows for the next, you know, two months for sure. Okay, keep going. And we got Griffin Shaw, 750 Jules. Thank you. Hunter Vance. When a distributor picks up the show is it binge or weekly release a fight you're willing to have just curious because i know your stance against the binge model it's a great great question it's a great question um and i don't know the answer to it again i know that i will probably have the conversation to it with it because i could see

someone saying well look the reason why we have to put this all is you got no one really knows who you and martini is yes you have so-and-so around you and yes we can mark it around them but if we really want to get them involved in the story right away and want to, you know, have them, then we should dump it all at once. And I can see someone saying that. But I don't know. I don't know that I, it, they're all hypotheticals. They're all hypotheticals. So, uh, but in your heart of heart, you have the perfect situation. You'd rather have a weekling. I don't know. I mean, weekly, weekly, I would probably, I mean, yes, but what scares me about is ultimately what I just said, right? What I, what I would hate to happen is, all right, we launch on,

what was this? It was a show that I just heard about. Oh, it was Kitchen Confidential. It was a Bonnie show with Bradley Cooper. And it was a really good show. But they took a hiatus and they took a break from going week to week. And they had this big long wait because I guess some football or something came back. Something came back.

And then they pushed it to a different time and they lost the audience. And then they canceled it after season one. And people loved love to the show. Right. So I always get nervous that, okay, we, you run. episode week to week to week week I think that's the way to do it I would prefer to do it that way because then you lead up to the anticipate like someone just asked are they going to be together at the end or or will they not um that's you just if you give it away right away in one dump you know I don't know it's what the bear did too I it's I don't know it's a it's a really crazy question to even to be thinking about on that other side of it you know but most likely you're right. Week to week would probably be the way that I want to have that problem. I know, 100%.

Laughing Disco. Thank you, laughing disco. Or Griffin Shaw about the laughing disco. Thank you. Okay, let's see. Joseph Ashley, is it hard to turn off the world building and just concentrating this stuff you got now, like working on dialogue or other stuff? Well, right now, all I can really do is think about the other stuff because, you know,

I could say to Martini, hey, listen, let's start right in episode two. but you know that she's she's got a she's got a life that she's got to deal with now and as she's getting ready to help promote this show that it's like well we put all this work and effort and we didn't we we you know i i i've spent money not i haven't made money on this show i've spent a lot of money on trying to get this show made um but coming up with the ideas of what's coming next is always in my head and that's like again why i want to tell these stories So I just am concentrated on this script right now because we want to shoot it. Because then the other side of it is like, I'm in a zone right now.

My first priority is making sure that you guys are excited about it, making sure that you guys are aware of it, making sure that you guys want to be a part of it. And then I have to make sure that we're ready when we launch on the 20 second. Then from the 22nd until, well, I could know, because I was going to say my next step after if we get funded is, okay, now I got to get into. really the psyche of the character even more so in go, we're probably, you heard Andrew on the show, he says he wants to shoot by the end of the year, if not January.

So, hopefully I know on September 23rd if I'm shooting the show. Right. But maybe I know on October 22nd, if I'm shooting the show. And either way, that's when I will, if all things go well and you guys do believe in it

and you do want to see it happen, then I will then get into a new mode past the promotion side of it and now into the let's bring this character to life portion of it. Okay. Let's see. Oh, wait. I think that quote by your dad needs to find its way into the show. So how?

I mean, yeah, I can see. Can you see Clancy saying that? 100%. So I have the whole Clancy thing though, too, like in my mind, it's just like, I can be. So, you know, I still think, and I don't want to miss quote this, but I still think he told me I was his first podcast he ever did, I think. That sounds right, actually. I think I remember this. I'm saying that. I think I'm telling me, you know, I've never done a podcast. I remember, I remember greeting him at the door or collider and be like, hello, Christian, I'm cleansing. I said, yes, I know.

I'm very well, I'm well, well aware, sir. He was, he was a, he was a great guy. I loved talking to. The issue is that JK actively uses her money influence to go after vulnerable minority. I encourage people who want to watch Porter and not support Jake to sell the high Csies arc. Now, that's, again, that's a way to write. as long as you're telling people not telling people that you know you can't watch it don't watch it i'm so excited for martini to be here tomorrow and hopefully i get to bombard her with all the questions bubbling inside love you christian you really are inspiration love you as well pili thank you you abs yet please everybody in here i'm probably going to do the same thing tomorrow with martini is

that have you guys ask as many questions as possible throughout it we'll talk about a couple of things with the business in general too but she's not like she's not going to be able to talk about marvel in dc you know maybe maybe i will shit you know what pieldy maybe i will maybe i will should you know what pieldy maybe i will go maybe I will go at 11 normal time tomorrow and she'll come in at 1130 so that way I can talk some movie stories up top and then bring her in 1130 because she's going to be with us for two hours so maybe we'll just make it make it a longer show anyway so let's do that you're going to do 11 then I'll do 11 and she'll come in at 11 30 not 12 you're doing an hour early oh wait hold on a second I'm confused what I mean starting at 12 when you're starting our normal time of 12 yeah what time is so

so so so so 930 for her yes 9 a. She's going to come into 9.30, but we'll start her 9 a.m. She's going to come into 9.30, but we'll start, we'll start normal time. We'll get there. Sorry. Oh, I didn't realize that was brought up in the script. Which part?

Oh, I think the Galaxy's Edge. Oh, not, not, not, not that necessarily. But like the fact that, you know, he, he, he doesn't. It's like, you're on the air, guy. Be, be, be, be aware of it. Right. Yeah. So let's say.

No, I don't know. He's got a younger sister. Since you mentioned a bad day of work, We character of a bad day, maybe more exaggerated. Yes. Okay, let's see. Yeah, I know. I know it's true.

It's true. Between her and freaking Mingna, when? They don't age. Samma, I heck too. It's like 16 inches. That's crazy, too. Yeah. Okay, let's see what else.

Griffin, Shaw. Would you write the bust of medicine in your script? No, not for that. Because, like, again, you know, what's stupid about that stupid thing is, well, it doesn't matter. Is it just like, he does go through some shit, though. He goes through some shit.

I'll say that. I'm thinking your character, it's just balls a lot. No, he doesn't. No. Okay, let's see. I'm trying to see right now where we're at 1923, 1928. We got a little bit,

a little bit more. Okay, let's see. So a lot of time people will doubt you because they are afraid for you or how it reflects on what they are not doing. That's what I'm saying. It's like, you know, You can't really judge, even people who get angry at you, too. I always try to take you in the consideration.

You know what they're going through. You know what I mean? So, okay. I'm confused about the prestige production comment. What was the prestige production? I wasn't sure what it was either. I started because it seemed like it was part of our discussion, but I didn't. I'm not sure.

What was it? What was the question? I don't know. Honestly, I don't remember now. Joseph Ashley, I'm interested because I'm critical how Los Angeles is portrayed. Oh, hated HPR. I love L.A., but California education got the feel right. Yeah, I totally got it.

Hold on, let's see. I want to just do something. So, Sam, if you have an idea what you were talking about? Yeah, I mean, you know, but he wanted to let us know. Let's see, hold on. Let's want to find something. Give me one second. Okay, let's see.

Okay. Wiley. Christian, how are you doing mentally with the stress of the Kickstarter. I mean, mentally real well, Wiley, because like I said, you guys are, I mean, you guys have been supporting it, you know, and as I said, even though I am trying, I just want to go, because people tell you as far as the numbers go, like traditionally, if you have X amount of subscribers, then normally this percentage goes. And I'm like, yeah, but it also depends on, to me, I'm thinking like, when I talk to you guys in general,

And I'm thinking of myself, well, if there's that many people who are watching this show per day. And every one of them, like if, if, now everybody watches in full support, there's some people who just, eh, this guy, rather when he talks about this, fuck this guy. Like, like, I'm not expecting Anthony Cheesman to hit notification. Right. Like, I think he's pissed off me right now. I love Anthony. I'm glad that he's been around with this forever.

But he's been one of the guys that's been around. But I'm expecting to do it. And he's probably like, man, I'm not going to, not for me. Okay. but there's enough of you in here right now that have been with us for so long that I'm telling you big picture side of things to help that I hope that you hit that button so why I'm and it seems like a lot of people are responding to it so I'm uh I'm in a good uh I'm in a good hit space I usually sent the our show is training link to every single family

and my friend on my WhatsApp I love that you guys if you guys do that kind of stuff I mean that is that is so um thank you thank you told them no money is never just follow that's it No money is needed. I know what you meant. Okay. Ken Dole, what's that man? Can musicians send the music to be included in the show? Not, no worries. Just curious to musician myself. So that's, again, just to repeat again, what I had said beforehand. When you join up, I think there's going to be conversations that are had. I'm not, I can't guarantee and say, yes, we're going to start taking submissions. I don't know the answer to that. What I can say is that you'll be part of the production conversations and listening to things happening in the room with other people that. like, oh, well, if you guys are looking for music, this and this, is there a place?

And then you'll get information and there's, you're going to watch the beginning of the making of the show to the end of it. And inside of that might be able to say, hey, listen, I know that you guys mentioned in Andrew's meeting, you guys mentioned you're looking for a tone to this. I happen to have the, blah, but you know what I mean? Like you'll be able to hear certain things and then respond to them, um, appropriately, I think too. So there's, but yes.

So I, I, I say that there's a good possibility. Yes. nerve virgin. I think our show needs a flashback scene when you were martini's character calls Kevin Smith, but he rushed the phone call because he's working on Hollywood. It's hilarious, actually. Yeah, really good. Call it Sunday Night Live. Yeah, right? You probably could. Red Carbett. Peacock would work too. I'm not going to lie.

I love them between Olympics, telemundo for World Cup, and Love Island and watch so much Peacock. Definitely thought about it. You wouldn't have to worry about changing SNL, for sure. Absolutely. And her comment, by the way, was just to somebody else. So she clarified that it wasn't to us. Right. Saul, I thought I hated binging, but now I just wait until shows over for months so I can. Yeah, that's a, yeah, but that's, that's different, right?

In the same way that I get it. Because I sometimes just kind of to get it, because the difference is, though, it doesn't go out of the zeitgeist, though. You know, and that's the problem with it. You can always choose to binge. You can't, like, if it's not released that way. I wonder if the viewers who haven't followed the Kickstarter yet. I think the process for signing up is going to be drawn out and time consuming. I was surprised at how quick it was to do so.

That's a great point. That's another thing, by the way. So for people who know when you hit, oh, I got to create an account, it takes two seconds. They send you a code to your email. You put it. It's it. Done. And you sign up.

It takes two seconds. So if you're able to sign that up, and like, if we're already, you guys on this stream are going to be the ones responsible for getting us to 2000. today because on the replay or whatever, almost 19, oh, it was almost 1930, almost 1930. Seems like the longer live streams have been also performing well for the channel too. Yeah, I mean, yeah, we, you know, it's, I like being here and hanging out and talking to you guys, especially when you guys are asking me, because I told you a while, I'm not how long ago it was, but I said that you guys are like my sounding off board. You're like, you, you guys have helped me with, I've sent like six screenshots today to

Craig about, oh, so-and-so had said this, this, this. Like, I'm not bullshitting. you and I'm telling you that this is all of our process. And like I'm working through this together with you guys. We've been doing this now for over a freaking year. So it's finally coming to fruition. So like and people are going to want to be part of it. And I think there's people right now,

maybe you're on the fence or everything too. And you're like, oh, when you start to see that everybody's coming together in this community that we formed that we did together and everybody is taking this thing like a badge of honor, you're going to want to be part of it. I don't want to phone out. Yeah, that's what I mean. And I think you're going to want to be part of it.

especially if we wind up doing like and we probably will I'd say we were going to do like a premiere party for it who's not going to want to be there for that okay let's see a Yoshi how long do you think it would take you and martini to write the scripts for the whole first season well the thing is that it was different because the first episode took so long to write because we had to like map out who they were

I mean, I had an idea and I had past iterations and things of what it was, but with the new characters and our personalities kind of wrapped around them, the formation of who they were and what they were in their back history and all that took a bit to weave through. So I think that the other scripts would be easier to do because, again, we have them mapped out, know where they're going to go. I don't know an actual number, but the other thing I would love to do, and probably, again, using the, we raise as much money as the guilt. Let's say we did that. Let's see we were lucky enough and blessed enough to raise as much money as the guild did, right? Well, then you can bring in a writer's room. There you go.

That's what we didn't have last time. That would help go a lot faster. Yeah, for sure. You don't want to be Dave Filoni. He's got to have a writer's room, doesn't he? Everett, Soka, right? I don't know. Mike D. Are you and the other producers investing in the pilot on top of the Kickstarter,

or is the Kickstarter the only source of funding for our show? Well, currently right now, it is the Kickstarter, right? Because, I mean, I guess the answer is yes, I have been investing in it already. Like, we needed someone to shoot the video for, you know, the, for the Kickstarter. We needed someone to edit it. We needed somebody to do the pictures. We needed, I had to fly out to LA. So, yeah, I'm already investing in it too.

Andrew has already started investing in Martinez. So we've already been investing in it already monetarily, the three of us anyway, too. But then as far as inside the fund itself, we'll see, you know, as we're building, I think there could be a potential for that as well, you know, we can do what we have to do. Okay. Let's say. Joseph, what is the worst day to have this show? Seems Friday's death sentence unless TGIF and Monday is attracted with game shows and sports games.

I think Wednesday sometimes it hits a rough. you mean like news and stuff right I think Wednesday's kind of you guys were kind of struggling for news stories yesterday right we were I think he means where the show would air though like trending oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh that makes sense um

oh wow uh you know it's a great question the worst day I mean I think Friday or Saturday right probably the worst yeah I think Saturday it's specifically is the worst yeah it's the worst I would say I mean ideally like Tuesday

Tuesday like or like Sunday night but two those two are pretty good pretty good um Kcg like how many different people are asking questions now too Christian will the main character be arguing with his wife most episodes like everybody loves well it's not his wife it's his ex right and so arguing with his wife on most episodes I mean they haven't spoken to each other and probably like a thing between 15 to like 18 years or something before they finally talk to each other again in the first episode so you imagine however that goes um run h if i actually get a character i hope my face has never shown maybe bucce you can do a voiceover you know you should you should um okay keep it going keep it going

you call on sol christian um are there any moments for your youtube career that your that your fans know about that you want to portray on the show and potential later episodes of so which um not necessarily because he's not really a YouTuber in the way that You know, I mean, he's a podcaster for sure, and he's, but no, not necessarily those types of moments, but there might be things that could pop up and things that I had. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. Okay, let's see.

Won't need Ruggiette on 922, waking up hard rate. Thank you, Blaine. I appreciate that. Very nice. Okay. Rini from Oz. Could it be worth hitting up Dorian about the music, like doing something? What?

I think Durina. Oh, Durina. I think it's supposed to be. Something original. If the show takes off, it'll benefit both of you. There's always options. There's always options for everything. My friend Eric is a really talented musician.

He's got a band called Shotgun Honeymoon. I'd love to use some of his stuff. I always like this stuff. Yeah. Okay. DJ RS 80. Hey, Christian, your show has been a regular part of our household for many years. Really hoping you get this project launched and out in the world.

Thank you, man. And that's kind of my hope, right? I hope that people, if you enjoyed anything that we've, ever done if you've enjoyed any of the streams if you enjoyed any of the shows if we've ever made you laugh then all i ask you is that to consider trying to help us get this one because maybe if those shows did something for you maybe this show will too that's kind of what i hope um all right let's say could show lo be in the show he was really good in uh in practical magic too he's just such a likable guy yeah yeah anybody watched pobra cat recently man he i love him so good uh can you make it

available on YouTube. I mean, you know, it's one of those things again. Like, there's always, there's always the, I don't know what the scenario is yet. Let's say again, we raise as much money and we break the guild's record. And then we're like, you know what? We got all this hype behind this too. And we have the season. Why don't we launch the season ourselves? And YouTube gets behind it. YouTube wants us to put it out and wants to push it. Is anything is possible. A lot of depends that way, especially animation now. Yeah. Digital circus, all those things. All of it.

Yeah, 100%. Sam, all we need is 75 followers to reach 2K. And let's see if that was an older. Let's see. Right now, we're at 1931, Sam. 1931, so less. 29. 29?

That is bad math. It's bad math. 69. There you go. There you go. Maybe you are meathead like. I got it. I got to eat.

Triple X gone dull X. Going forward, you can just say, gone dull. No, X, X, X, X. Oh, fair enough. But that's kind of fun. Carla, hi, Carla. I've been busy these last few days, but I just had to be here to say, it took me two seconds to follow the show on Kickstarter. Thank you. That's what I'm saying. Two seconds. Do you do that today, Carla? I'm curious. Like, how many people are like, because that's the other thing that people don't understand, too. I posted on the, on the community tab. And I said, how many people are aware, like, when I did the first, how many people are aware I'm doing a show,

initially peeled i think it was like something like 60 40 right now it's more like 82 whatever but um still that percentage that didn't know about it right so like that's why i'm telling everybody that every single on every video on every shmode on video we're going to see a see on the clips channel like everywhere um because my point of it is even though yes you're aware of it those people like if everybody who was aware of it hit the button we would have more pre-followers than the guild. Yeah. The guild had like 10K or something like that.

And so currently we're close to two. But that's what I'm saying. If every single person hit that notification button right now. Like we're, yeah, we'd be in, uh, we'd be in a spot. I'm keen to see these tears. Definitely to determine how much I put in as it should, as it should. Like you got it, you've got to look at it and go, holy shit. or okay, that's cool.

I don't really want to go that high because that doesn't interest me as much. I want to support, but I'm going to support with this, but that is not only do I want to support, that's worth my money. I'm not going to get that anywhere else. I'm going to the core screen. I would, as if I was your friend or a family member, I'd go, well, if you really support this guy,

give what you're comfortable with. But if you believe in it, obviously, but if there's something that I really offers you that you really did, then yeah, go for that. If not, then just support what you're comfortable with. That's what you should do, 100%. Dill to Pickle. I apologize that this question has been answered.

You're going to rely on flashbacks or dialogue to flesh out the backstory of your character. So there was a flashback scene that actually opened the pilot, and I just didn't feel like we needed it. It's a great scene. Yeah, it is. It's a great scene.

It just wasn't, and Martini and I both love it. and we'll probably use it to open episode two, to be honest with you. But it wasn't necessary to start this episode. So there will be some because I think you're going to want to see, well, wait a minute. They don't really, they really, did they ever get along? You know, it's one of those things. Soul Style, really looking forward to the 10-hour live show.

Yes, and by the way, and I don't know who PLD, who it was that did. There's the same person who posted in Discord. posted it here. Cannot thank them enough. Again, another reason why these streams have been so great is that someone said, listen, just to let you know, YouTube won't actually let you do a 24-hour stream. Like, you can do it, but then they delete it right afterwards. So make sure it's under like 11 hours. That was really useful information. So we're probably going to do that. Really, really great. Johnny, are you going to, are you opposed to guerrilla marketing for our show? Could

put some stickers up around town. I mean, you know, I'm, I don't, I'm not opposed to anybody else doing it. I don't know if I'm going to do it. But, um, let's see. Carla, I don't remember exactly the date, but I do remember when I found you guys. It was when I was searching for news about Jim and the holograms. Oh man. That one broke my heart.

It was so bad. It was atrocious. But yes. Yeah. I think they're doing a TV show. Aren't they doing? Yeah. There's something else.

I did something coming out. Joseph, I had Kickstarter for a while because I invest in artists doing their own comic books and I'll do that soon. This show shows me the process. Yeah, that's the whole point, Joe, right? that's is that I just don't think that a lot of things have done that and especially not Andrew Fried has won many Emmys how many campaigns can you guys think of to wear an Emmy award winning producer and the guy who's directing the show is going to give you access to him and and his process I don't know I don't know that I mean maybe the answer is yeah well so-and-so did

that but I've never seen it but I don't know um Okay, let's see. SoulStyle. Maybe take live calls from viewers a day to the 10-hour live stream, would that be a mess? No, it wouldn't be a mess. I think what I'd have to do is it's not necessarily call as much as

like you gotta give people the stream thing. You know what you'd probably have to do. You'd probably have to do it exclusive to members, unfortunately. Yeah, I don't know. It'd be very messy otherwise. Yeah, well, you have to send it to members because otherwise, because you don't know who you're going to get. Right.

Getting the stream. So you probably have to just, just send it out to members or um or um you know patrons and stuff too so um join me in the bubble yeah um okay apps the structural differences between shows coming out today and one's a while ago in the restructuring the episodic format where it leans towards demanding your attention for the entirety is that what he's talking about i think as part of the conversation he was having with uh red cart with uh sam right okay that makes sense uh honestly i would love to see there's something like a situation on the show to help you work through, like therapy,

the number of people that gave you shit for them. Well, now, listen, this is the part of the, this is what people have to understand. When you do what we do and you give people something to go, you know, like, that was, that's part of the business, that's part of the job. It's part of the job. Like, you know, I, I, I said, oops, let my, that was dumb. And then people let me have it for a for a bit. my thing is eventually you got a you know if that's all you got it gets lazy after a while right

when it's happening you know i i fucked up you give me my give me my give me my punch in the jaw take it that's fine but when it's when that's all you got oh this guy's buzzing his ass oh you're you're you're being a fan of this now for five years too and it's like that's all you got it's been it's been like 10 years it's all you got um so that kind of stuff you know it doesn't matter because again, there's no, it's one thing if, you know, if I sat there going, well, here's the reason why. No, I've talked about it. And I've talked about it many times over.

I, you know, it's like, and that's why you were talking about it, Princess, you know, is the fact that what I will make sure is that what I learned in that whole thing is because, you know, Schnepp had passed, I think it was in, um, uh, July of that year. Yeah. My brother passed like two or three weeks later, right? It was tough. And so instead of, my wife's talking to me about this all the time, so you don't talk about it at all.

I'm like, I'm fine, I'm fine. And for a year, carried around a lot of shit. And, you know, when you do that, and then you go into, you know, on the microphone all the time and whatever, the stupidest thing gets you upset, you never shouldn't, and you let it lose, well, it's on you. You should have talked to somebody. You should have done something. And I didn't.

And so what that taught me, though, inside of it is, especially for this character, certain things like, he definitely bottled up. Like, he's bottled up. So I know how to play bottled up. I've done that before. So that stuff's there. So I actually don't really give people shit for giving me shit during that time because it was warranted. I get it.

I understand it. Now I'm just like, you know, there's other things that you can go after. You can say, oh, you know, when people go, he's grouchy, he says he's always complained. Okay, I do. That's fine. I get it. That's fine. I'll own that.

But that's, but don't do that. That's, that's like, that's been like 10 years. I got to find new material. X, Ox, Ash. What's up? Hey, Christian. Long time, listener, first time commenting. Well, thank you so much for doing that.

Do you have any, do you have a longer synopsis of what the show will be about? How many episodes are you thinking? So, did you, are you talking a longer synopsis than what's in the actual Kickstarter? synopsis right now. Yes, we do, and we will most likely, I think, more than likely, release that whole thing when the campaign starts. So how many episodes for season one were we thinking? I mean, I think it all depends on a lot of variables. The first is, and I'll keep throwing this out there because I want this, I want to manifest it at this point, but if we somehow break the record, beat what the guild did,

and we can make our own season with that kind of budget, we could do seven to eight episodes for season one. Now, if we pitch it and they go, we really like it, and there's only one streamer that says, we really like and we like to listen, let's just do six episodes for the first, see if it does,

and then we'll do eight to ten in the next one. You might have to concede, you know? So it just depends. Like I think that the first season could easily be eight episodes. But thank you for the question. As far as synopsis goes, it comes soon. Yeah, this is true too. People have said this.

Instead of paying rights for songs, you could find coverage of these songs. Yes. The one song, though, at the end, though, I don't necessarily know if you could, but I'm not sure. Trending Spinoff show, a little bopi in the juice live action.

That's where you're tired of making the show anymore. Right. Or you really would just want to fully get canceled. A lot of studios do show the first episode for free on YouTube to rope you in. Maybe. That is, again, not going to be just my call. You know, that's, that's, it really is. That's why I keep telling people.

It's so dependent on what happens during those first 30 days. Like I'm knowing what we're going to do because, you know, there's the super, let's make this happen, beat the guild record scenario of this. And then there's the other side of it. We barely hit the goal. we just hit the goal. Well, then it's like, all right, so we're going to have to shoot on some iPhones and get it done? You know,

are we going to have to do this? Are we going to have to just maybe not go after so-and-so? Are we going to have to cut some rolls? We're going to have to do that. We'll find a way to make it. We'll find a way to do it if we raise, you know, the initial goal, which is fine. But there's just, it's too hard to say, like,

we're going to release it here. We're going to do that here because we just don't know. Right. All right, let's see. Where are we now? Peleley last we were 69 away. Now we are 68 away. Okay.

I'll take it. I'll take it. Gone dull. If Doomsday ends up being divisive audience-wise, but still mostly critically acclaimed like The Last Jedi, what would be the best next movie for the MCU and the opinion? Well, I mean, they can't do anything except they got, you know, I mean, they have Secret Wars. They're kind of locked into that at this point. So, oh, shoot.

I got to jump. Peelty. Hold on for a second. Let me do this. Hold on. All right. It's me. It's me. It's PLD. All right. You know, it actually is perfect timing. I'll even do this. Take one myself. Johnny Petriza, spin-off idea. PLD saves the world. I mean, I'm all in. I'm all in. Depends on how much they're going to pay me to do it. But, you know, I'm all in. Let's see. What else you got here? Well, thank you guys yesterday. I don't want to take too many questions because questions, Amanda, answer these questions. If you have any questions specifically for me while I'm here on the solo, go ahead and put it in the screen now.

I'm not going to bring them out because I want to lose my place to where I am in the briefiest questions. But you can do that now. I want to thank you guys yesterday. It was a great opportunity for me to get to co-host with Winston. We had a lot of fun. Check out that episode for sure. And yeah, the idea of doing the members, having the members do a live stream call in during

our show, our big long live stream. That would be great. I plan to be here all the entire time. I've taken the night off of work. That should be a lot of fun. So Tuesday at the 20 seconds, get ready, get that caffeine going. because we'll be here all day long. I did it once.

Back in the day, we did the Kevin Smith, Kevin Smith's smashathon for raising cancer funds. Man, that was a great time. I actually did stay up to 24 hours. I was up to the whole 24 hours. And I don't know if I could do that anymore. I'm a lot older now, 10 years older.

It can't happen anymore. But what can you do? Also, by the way, Kevin Smith and Mike Kahnowski between you and me since no one's actually listening to me right now, man, if that match goes down, I'm going to put all the cancer questions. in there just to screw with Mike.

That's between you and me, though. That's between you and me. Princess Positive. Oh, no, I'm sorry. The PL these spin-off is called Better Call Paul. Oh, I like that one. I like that one. Let's see, anything else?

Not a question. Yoshi Mitsu, not a question, but really enjoyed you hosting with Winston. I appreciate that, my friend. I appreciate that. It's good to have the opportunity. It's a lot of fun. Barbara's boy as the guy in the bubble.

Yes, I could be the guy in the bubble in this show somehow. Maybe you can make Bubble Boy work. I'd actually have a big bubble. I can actually have some kind of big bubble. Roll around. I'll be like in the John Travolta movie or in Seinfeld. I'll actually literally be bubble boy. There you go.

Josh, his name is Paul. Didn't even know. That's right. I go at PLD. You don't know what my real name is. Well, now you do. It's Paul. What the LD stands for?

Well, you could find it out. Probably somewhere. Probably somewhere. Let's see. Gone dull. PLD. What's my favorite queen deep cut? Oh, that's a great question.

I'm going to give you two. I'm going to give you two because I can't pick just one. The ones that nobody really knows because they're deeper cuts, or at least there's semi-deeper cuts. White Queen as it began from a Queen 2 album, great power ballad, probably one of the first power ballads, written by Brian May. Love that song.

You could find the live version, BBC version, on the Queen 2 Deluxe projects. Great stuff. And also probably one of the most archetypical Queen songs I know is called It's Late from News of the World. Great rocker. Great rocker. It has an upbeat ending where Roger just drums off.

Trump's the hell out of it, and Freddie takes these higher notes, and Brian's guitar riffing. Good stuff. Actually, he taps on that, taps the guitar before I had Van Halen did at that point. So really good there. Let's see what's going on. Joseph Ashley are all the books of my shelf Star Wars-related? Not all of them. I'm standing right now because I gave my back out.

I have a hydraulic desk. Sometimes you see me sitting down. Over here, you see a lot of V books from the 1980s, the great sci-fi series that was. Also some Dragonlance. Over on the other side, I have some Queen. books up there at tops and queen biographies but yes a lot of star wars books as well definitely a lot of star wars books let's see oh shi umatsu pldi why did you sell your house well because i'm sick of maintenance i moved into a townhouse i'm sick of i'm getting older hate all the maintenance

hate the lawn mowing the shoveling the all that shit i'm getting too old for that shit really that's the gift kem from so i'm getting too old for that shit so we're cutting down on that and i'm moving to a townhouse where i don't have to worry about that shit uh let's see round h bubble boy in the house josh rock top five favorite things about Roka. Number one, he's not on today. Number two, he's not on tomorrow. Number three, I don't have to see him until at least Monday. I'm going to do top three. I'm going to end it there. Let's see. Behow, PLD, my favorite Star Wars movie or project? Well, I am a basic bitch. Empire Strikes Back is always going to be my favorite. That's the one that I first saw in the

theater. The first movie I saw in the theater was Empire Shakespeare's Back, and it's never in the same sense. As far as, like, if you want to know current projects, more recent projects, probably... I want to say Andor, although Andor doesn't really... Andrew doesn't scratch that Star Wars. It's for me still... I know Christian always says it's still Star Wars.

And it has core at Star Wars. But it doesn't have the Star Wars soup that I like, the adventure, the swagger, the fun little bit. So I probably go with... Probably the Mandalorian. Probably is part of the best current one we did. Rogue Woman is probably my favorite of the movies for the side of the Disney movies at this point.

Let's see, Dan B. Dilda, Pickle, Dan Fielding, you removed all the mystery. You don't know what the L means. You don't know what the L means. Johnny DeGyan, when did I start working with Christian Harloff? I was a fan first, back in the Toadotte days, and the first era of the Smodown after that. I started working, actually started working with Ben Bateman

and Andrew Guy first as part of action industries when I started doing a call to action, a Smodown after show podcast. I started working with their Patreon and I was actually the third action guy on their channel for a while you can find a lot of that stuff they kind of taken that off the air for their specific reasons

but then the Christian knew me from call to action and so I got on board PJ hooked me up by asking me to write on the show I started writing with the FCL for the Shmowdown if you don't know what the FCL is that was the first class league it was like our developmental league that lasts of the season run by me and Greg Gilmore and PJ did his call

kind of brought me up the big leagues to help him out, and I wrote with him. And then when the Shmordown got canceled, Christian asked me to stay on. I've been with him ever since. And he actually helped me get the job with Greg at the Real Rejects, which is kind of cool as well. Hopefully, that tells you everything you need to know about me and Christian. Let's see, what else we got? Could I make two bubbles of myself and place an unroca's chest on Monday, Joseph? I don't know if you want that. I don't know if you want that. I don't want to be on Rooka's chest. I never want to be a rocca's chest. Maybe I'll shit this chest, maybe. Paul loves John. Paul loves D. John Roker.

No, Scott, that's not true. Excuse me. So, when was the last time I listened to It's Late, Paul? Probably a few weeks ago. I usually comes off in my shuffle light. You have a queen playlist I play a long time. And I played that last couple weeks ago. Great song, great song.

Outpost. PLD is in the Lucas Museum, open the same day as the marathon. It might be. I don't know exactly when it's opening. I know that I'm going to go out there when I go out for celebration. I definitely want to go to that Lucas Museum. I'm excited about that.

Let's see, Princess Positive. Number four, Roka Hat covers part of his head. Let's see. Anything else? Jill the pickle, Paul, listening dispatcher. Hey me. I am a dispatcher. If you don't know that, I ask my main gig.

I work overnight as a 911 call taker, police fire, and EMS. My voice is getting scratched. I'm going to take a quick sip. All right, let's try that now. Casey, PLD, do you have any of the Tash in Star Wars art books? Oh, I have all of them. And I have, let's see, the big ones here. I don't if I have them on this bookshelf.

My favorite one, you can see right there, though. The big Ralph McQuarrie art book, that's a big, expensive coffee table book, two volumes. That is, if you're a Star Wars fan, that is glorious treasure right there. I'll tell you that much. Let's see. John Stakes, I'm an OT guy, but I love the Force Awakens so much. The next two, not so good. I don't have ever talked about my prequel trilogy thoughts.

I could talk about that now. I could. I don't know if I don't have that much time. I've already three hours, and then Chris is going to come back any minute. Someday, if you really want to know, you can come and find me, and I'll talk to you about that.

Let's see. Anything else? Oh, that's me. Look at me. I'll do this first. I'll bring you back. Hold on. There we go.

There you go. I'll just say this. Very, very good. good news. That's all I'll say. Can't say anything else. I will be able to tell you what the good news is eventually, but I can't, I can't tell you yet, but it's very, very good news. Awesome. Did you highlight that? No, I just started talking to people in the chat. Okay, good. Well, that's amazing that you did. Thank you. And hopefully you saw the synopsis there. But yeah, I mean, people are going to be, people are going to be excited.

We're in, we're in good, good news. All right, let's see. We did that one already. Yeah. I'm going to spin off how the appeal that he saves the world. Well, he just did. He just did. Okay, Nourri Virgin.

In the show, Martini's Kid is not yours, right? Or whether you're a conspiracy is on Reddit. You got to watch what's going on. You got to watch what's going on. You got to watch the show. I'm not giving any story plot every two. So I can neither say yes because they know, whatever. You got to watch it.

Brooke Lesnarleaf, treat yourself to a meatball sub from Subway. Man, I actually did. You still love those things. I'll tell you that. I'll tell you what you did, you son of a bitch, Brooke. I'll tell you, I do have food here that I'm not going to do it, but the pizza place down the way here is they have a great meatball sub. I didn't tell Ed that when he was here.

I should have. Should have told Ed to get the freaking meatball sub. It was amazing. You can just take it home. Really, really good. Okay. Let's see. Jacob Allorty can play.

Where is it? Where is it? Can play younger Christian. Yeah, maybe. I mean, he's that tall. He's significantly taller than me, significantly. And I'm not, I'm not short. No. Yeah, let's say.

I'm still looking. Sorry, there's a lot of questions that kind of came down here, too, and I'm excited to continue. The best Kickstarter I have backed was the video game Overload. Sorry, the developers ended up interacting with an audience a lot and took a huge amount of feedback and talk to us directly. That's great. And that's a good note for us to have. And we'll be pretty locked in with you guys too.

So that's good to know. Yeah, Joseph Ashley, if your character on the couch watching TV eating cereal, big balls in the box, that would be cool. Also, hope you get endorsements on their show. That would be good too, for sure. Yeah. Was your character delinquent as a kid or like you or was he well-mannered young? He was definitely got himself in the trouble. He was the troublemaker of the three of them, for sure.

Yeah. Let's see. The daughter was the, was, the was the best behaved. But yeah, his had the whole backstory. His brother was really the one who kind of started getting into more the stand-up comedy stuff, but not really necessarily doing stand-up. His brother was like kind of like into the management side of things.

But he was on the circuit and he hung out with comedians and he was there at the clubs all the time and then my character would kind of sneak off and want to hang out with the big brother and do it too. And he started getting up on stage and started doing real real well, but the brother took off to L.A. and was like, bartending and started at comedy clubs and everything too. And then he followed him out again too. And, but then he took off. And at some point when the, you know, the brother was working at the club long enough that he was trying to get to a management role and everything too. And then when my character was doing well in comedy, he's like, hey, we need you to do the room. He's like, ah, I can't do it. I got other things. And he wouldn't,

and he wouldn't help his brother out of that. point too that was again super all the backstrike and I know the ins announced the character and what it was um apps oh by the way christian I got two more members from the family who also committed to the kickstart it's amazing but they would like to know about the tiers as well as again as they should apps and and when we release all of them you'll be able to kind of go through it and we'll get through and the streams will be significantly different when we're doing these types of things right because you're like, oh, I have a question about this tier. Now that this is listed at this, this, this and this,

if I was to do this, would I be able to do that? And then Craig will be on a lot more. Andrew will be on a lot more. Martini will be on a lot more. And so there'll be, I mean, we'll see a lot of them for sure. What made Martini, your female co-star for the show? What's your idea you asked her. So we started writing it and I just said to her, like,

there really would be, like, we started, the character just started to take, on her personality traits too from a lot of the stuff, what she could do and how, and I just I said, you just got to do this. First, initially, what were we going to do? We're going to do it like small and we were just going to make something. And then when people were responding to the script, like, we can really make this like, as if it's on a streamer already, too, like, it's a real show.

And that's why I decided when we were getting the responses we were from the script. And by the way, and the other thing that I haven't been talking about enough that I should be is that the fact that we have Greg Alba involved too. Greg just put out a wonderful video recently on his, on his reaction for fall. And if you haven't seen it, it's just such a great video and he's excited about it too. And so having him involved has been wonderful.

But as far as Martini, yeah, it's just that she's just really, really good. And she knows the character and we bounce off each other really well. So that's kind of why. Joseph Ashley, that would be an episode of some troll, see you in person, you can come in the balls, could kick balls now. That's, yeah, probably not. Probably not on that one.

All right, let's see. Josh sticks, 12 episodes for half an hour coming. It would be six to eight. It's a bit short, but easier to film. Well, six to eight in, in regards to when you're going into season one, you know, but yes, you could probably do, you could probably do 10 and 12 as well. And that's why I want a writer's room, too. You know, I tell you all the things that I have and what are things. Oh, yeah, you know, what if that could work and maybe that episode?

Oh, yeah, what do we throw that and said, oh, that's a good way to transition episode three into episode five. And we'd throw four in there and do that. Oh, that makes sense. So, yeah, we can form a, that's why you need a writer's room as well, too. So yeah. But, but yes, I can just tell. What I can tell you is that about, you know, because I did, that was, that was free that just called me, by the way. Nice.

So I can, I just tell you that. Just tell you that he called me with very good news. All right. Gone dull. PLDA, what's your favorite queen deep cut? I did that while you're gone. You're good. Oh, you did, you did.

You did, okay. Oh, they asked you when you started working with me. You did all those. There's a bunch for me. I said, there's some questions out there that I could answer. Oh, that's cool. That's cool. Let's see.

PLT coming in, PLT be coming like, this is for old school baseball fans like Kevin Mitchell. Look at that. Let's see. You have the one-handed baseball catch, right? Yeah, yeah, it's right. He sure did. Let's see.

Bobby. An angle for Stephanie show would be your time there and how it inspired the Shmodan and transitioning trending. Yeah, I mean, I'm going to, I'm going to try everything I can, Bobby, you know, try to get the word out there for short and see what I can do to, you know, so we'll say, no, I have not watched BoJack. I'm sorry. I hear it's good though. Here it's really good. Okay. Fiona George, hey, don't you know if you don't know if you answer this, but I'm behind. Who do you think Noah Jup is playing in Secret Wars? Oh, I did see that. You know, we haven't talked. We actually haven't talked about that. I don't know. I don't know

the answer that. And I think that's probably a good Chris Carr or Winston question. Winston I talked about it yesterday. Okay. I always said the idea was like Franklin Richards growing up as a possibility. I pitched the idea that they might give them the beyond, make them beyonder for for several words, potentially. Okay. So

Kevin Smith, you're still on? Here's 10 bucks for your lunch. Thanks, buddy. Yeah, I want to get that meatball sub maybe. I don't know. All right, so we did it. We did three hours and 20 minutes today. We'll probably do more. I can't wait to get more more news out to you guys when we're able to. But we got some, we got some really exciting, I mean, really exciting stuff coming up now. And yeah, I mean, so we'll talk a little bit more when we can, but that's it. Thank you guys. I appreciate it very much so. I'll be on tomorrow.

I think I'll stick with regular time, but then at around 930 PST, Martini will be in. So get your questions ready now. And let's be. show her, let's show her a lot of love tomorrow, right? Let's ask her as many questions as you can. I'll highlight all of them. You know, we'll do anything here. We'll just do a full Q&A with it. I'll go through the movie stories up top. So that way, if you come in and here for movie stories, you get that. And then, and then, yeah, we'll do that. Let's see, how will the effect, how will the show affect you being a father? That's a great question. How will you maintain the relationship by working so hard? Well, I mean, look, my, my kids know that I'm,

I mean, I do a lot of work now, you know, and I just, I got to balance it out and make sure that I, I always have time for them and, and make sure that I'm, I'm aware and present for them and everything too. And they, they understand. So it's like, you know, yeah. This is great question. That's great question. This is right on Canada and I show. Probably not. Probably not. All right. You guys rule. Thank you guys so much. Appreciate it. God, I want to just scream the news, but I can't do it. So thank you guys for being here and we'll see you guys on the flip side. Thanks to PLD. Thank you, Kevin Smets. Thank you. So happy Kevin's back. Who's not happy Kevin's back?

Thank you to Chris Carr. Thank you to Sam and MK for putting out the time codes here. Jonathan for helping us edit for the Clips channel for Luke, for Luke, for everything the Luke does. And that's it. So I really, really appreciate it.

Do me a favor. How about this? This is what I want you do on, this is for Discord people. Sam, have you do this in the discord. This is a very old school kind of shmowdown thing. Start to speculate what do you think the good news is. We'll see if anybody gets it. And if you get it, and if you get it, I'll talk about it once we finally announce it.

So, all right. Thank you guys. Appreciate it. Thank you, all of you. And that's it. We'll see you later. Once again, go and check out the trending page. If you haven't done that already, do it. It is time to get this to 2000. We can do it. Let's go.
