At this point, I'll just say this.
We were taping this on a Wednesday, even though we're airing it on Thursday.
So we should have some more news about the sag strike.
Is it happening?
Is it not?
There's things that lend itself to that conversation as well as the new Emmys,
I mean, nominations came out on Wednesday morning,
and Roxy Stryor is here to talk about it.
There's a few things that happened that I was like, wait a minute.
I mean, I thought a lot of these nominations were stinky, to be honest.
I just think there was a lot of people that were left off,
like a lot of people that were left off and just kind of,
Harrison Ford not nominated for shrinking.
You lost me.
None of this is legit anymore.
So we'll talk about that.

It's a big thing.
Let's do it.
What's going on, everybody?
Welcome back.
It's the big thing.
It's me.
It's the dancing Roxy.
It's us.
How are you?
Stellar.
Is that true?
No.
No.
I just wanted to say.
Wait, your birthday today?
Well, they're watching this.
Tomorrow is your birthday
for when we're taping us.
I didn't know that.
Yeah.
Well, I would, I find out everything through
through social media.
We're going to call it smocial.
Smocial media.
I find everything out there to smo-smo-smo-smobile.
Smoshal media.
Are you using the threads?
Yeah.
Do you like it?
I do.
Okay, good.
Yeah, I do.
The problem is, I use Twitter for one main reason,
and it's news.
Threads doesn't have that yet
Yet. So once it does
To me, I feel no need to be on Twitter
But it seems like more
Pleasant on threads somehow. How does that happen?
The trolls haven't come yet.
They haven't come out of darkness.
But they're there. I mean, they're on Instagram
So why aren't they showing up on threads? I don't get it.
I just don't think they've downloaded yet because they're team Elon.
Oh, I see what you're saying.
Like they don't want to, they're not jumping ship.
I see.
Yeah, I mean, if you're at this point
that Elon stands
are the ones that are super intense.
That won't leave.
Yeah, they're just like, he's the god, you know?
It's crazy because Mark Zuckerberg is such a schmock.
Yeah, people are rooting for them.
It's just like, I guess the lesser of two evils.
I love that they want to box each other.
Yeah, I want that more than anything
I've ever won in my whole life.
Do you know how many views people that would do?
Who would win?
Elon's kind of out of shape.
I always saw that Robert from Lates of the Party said it best.
He looks like dying E.T.
Did you ever see him when he was out in the sun?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And he looked like what E.T.
looked like when he was dying.
E.T.
Yeah.
But he just looks out of shape.
Yeah.
I feel like Zuckerberg, even though Dorky would be faster.
And I think he's younger, too.
He's way younger.
My brother was talking to me about this the other day.
Doesn't follow him into it.
I got to call him about that still.
he was like, you know, at the end of the day,
I'm not out here saying Zuckerberg's great,
but like he doesn't have a wife and kids who love him.
Like Elon's family can't stand him.
Is that true?
Oh, yeah, because Elon has a trans daughter who's disowned him.
Like Elon's family can't stand him.
I don't know anything about that.
It's amazing how much you know.
Yeah, it's just random knowledge.
You know about all this stuff.
But he's like he doesn't have like that love in his life.
So I don't know, that kind of makes him a little more dangerous.
in a fight.
Oh, in a fight, yeah.
Yeah, I'm just thinking, I don't know.
You never know.
Elon's probably, he clearly doesn't give a crap about losing stuff, you know.
And so if you got nothing to lose or you feel like that, you're dangerous.
Well, they both would be able to hire the best kind of trainers.
Yeah.
So you don't, so you don't know who they would hire to, I mean, yeah, it would be.
Oh, I want this so bad.
I really, it would be the most watch fight, maybe ever.
Ever.
I'd watch it.
I would watch it too.
And I don't like watching.
those celebrity fights and all that kind of crap.
It's to me kind of degrades the fight game.
I will say this, though.
I've said this beforehand.
When Logan Paul...
I knew you were going to say it.
But when Logan Paul and his brother got into it,
it was like I always used to think...
Jake?
What's that?
Jake Paul?
When I used to think about celebrity boxing matches
and this guy wants to be a fighter
and this guy wants to be a fighter,
I'm like, okay, what they did for boxing,
they brought more notice to it.
And they're both athletic,
And they both can throw hands, and they both have done.
And then I will say, I don't necessarily, you know, all the stuff that Logan Paul had done in the past and all these things too.
I'm not a fan of it.
And a lot of things that he says sometimes, like, I don't know.
But I will never say that he's not an athlete.
And I will never say that he didn't earn his spot in the WWE because.
Yeah, he works his butt off at that.
I agree with what you're saying.
I'm not sitting here like, Logan, Paul, the man.
but at the same time, the people who...
You have to.
His place there, I'm like,
huh, all right.
He's bouncing off the ropes with ricochet.
The guy's been wrestling for like two years.
And he's done stuff that it takes people
decades to be able to do.
It's rather impressive
while also being somewhat annoying.
100%.
But like I said, I will not say
you can't, just because you think someone's
annoying or don't agree with it,
You can't say they're not good at what they do.
And I think that the Paul brothers actually brought a little bit more legitimacy to,
okay,
well,
maybe if people are really athletic and they do some training that they could be good at these things,
even if they were just coming from YouTube or whatever.
Full stop on that,
however,
obviously Elon and Mark are not going to bring this.
No, no, no, no.
And I'm just saying that they brought,
no,
what they did do is that someone who was a massive boxing fan for a very long time,
And then MMA kind of for a long time kind of scratched that itch for me because it did, I thought what Dana White and the UFC did was one of the biggest problems with boxing.
And not to bore everybody, but basically boxing for a long time had all these promoters and all these ridiculous factions or elite or what the hell, organizations, WBA, IBA, IBAF, WBC, all these different ones.
It's like, who's the champion over there?
And that champion's there and all the rankings.
and it was so confusing as where the UFC was just one organization,
here's the rankings, here's the champions,
and the champion had to fight the number one contender,
and it just was structured.
And then the rules were different.
And I always agreed with the fact that, like, as much as I love boxing,
there's way more risk in boxing for head injuries.
For head injuries.
Yeah, for sure, because not in bodily injuries in general,
because you can get hurt any which way in MMA,
but the goal in boxing is,
championship rounds, 12 rounds.
I have to punch you in the head for the most part.
You can hit in the body, but the most part.
I'm trying to hit you in the head for three minutes per round for 12 rounds.
Again, for the most part.
In where MMA, I could not hit you in the head once, and I could just work on, I could
try to submit you, I could try, you know, and there's a lot of head hitting, for sure, yeah.
I'm telling you that punch him was great stuff.
But anyway, my point is that what the Paul brothers did and other people did is that because
of the social media influence and all those things people started to watch and they're very
highly viewed yeah i'm super with you on that it's like an interesting idea that more people
could do that if they were the right type of people yeah look it would be a disaster overall to
watch the two of them do it but like i um i would want to watch it um yeah and for people wonder brett was
supposed to be here today.
He just couldn't make it.
He had some prior engagement.
So we were trying to figure out a time to do it.
We just couldn't do it.
How's everything going in the world of Roxy before we move on?
Oh, I met just on my way here.
So did I tell you the baby with the drums moved out?
No.
The baby with the drums had moved out.
You love that.
The fucking girl across the hall is still there.
A fucking girl.
Is she still fucking?
Yeah, I said it like that because I don't mean that fucking girl.
No.
The fucking girl.
What does she do?
She fuck.
Yeah, she foxed.
And this was amazing, Christian, I can't believe.
Is she a woman in the night?
I'm not sure exactly what she does.
Is possible?
Because she's a woman of the day, which is the confusing part.
So I don't know really.
It happens during the day?
Yeah.
Oh.
Yeah, oftentimes.
But maybe they're at work and leave.
I don't know.
I don't know.
But the other day, I texted my apart.
All of a sudden, my whole place is shaking.
Because of the fucking.
So I don't know what's going on.
I don't hear anything, though.
So I'm like, oh my God, we're in an earthquake.
So I take to Twitter and we're not an earthquake.
And I was like, what is happening?
And then it's shaking.
It's shaking.
And I'm like, whoa, my TV is moving.
Like the stuff in my bathroom.
And I'm like, what is happening?
So I text all of, I think something's wrong with the apartment complex.
So I text, I'm on a thread.
The fucking girl isn't on it.
We don't include her on the thread.
So I text the other people on the thread.
The drums kid isn't on it.
And the fucking.
girl isn't on it.
Everybody else is on it because I like all that.
You found everybody.
Yeah.
So I was like, are you guys feeling this right now?
Is everybody else in a goddamn earthquake?
And they were like, no, no.
And then later on in the day, same thing.
Same thing.
So I start looking at our ring cam and like, sure enough.
Reverse gang bang.
I don't know, but she's doing something in there.
She's doing something in there.
She's doing something there.
But it was sound silent.
But it was silent now.
Now, I don't know.
That could be some.
I don't know.
But silent, and my whole place was shaking.
I was like, what is she doing?
Yes.
Do you like her?
So adorable.
Adorable.
She's adorable.
I don't she think she's earned that word.
You know what she just did, though?
Uh-oh.
She's now put a mattress in her parking spot.
What's that?
Is that the new spot?
I don't know.
I'm like,
Boyer?
Why is there a mattress?
Oh, my God.
Can you get her on the show?
I don't think.
Because of all the stuff I've said about her.
Put a mask on her.
Yeah, I know, I know.
But she's lovely.
When I talk to her, it's kind of annoying because I'm like, I want to hate you, but you're so nice.
But I met the two people that moved in where the drum boy is now.
And how are we looking there?
We're looking good.
Yeah?
We're looking good.
I texted my landlord about it, and she said it's going to be two quiet working professionals.
So I was like, hmm, and then I met them today.
What kind of professionals?
Like the fucking girl?
I don't know.
Right.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Today, though, it was a guy and a girl.
I think they're probably a couple.
And they said, hello.
And I said, just like that?
Oh, hello.
And then I came here.
Yeah, kind of.
Okay.
Yeah.
Hey, listen.
You got to do what you got to do.
Yeah.
Well, congratulations on Lisa was losing the drummer kid.
That was awful.
Yeah.
That was awful.
Yeah.
A year.
Whoa.
Oh, so that's great.
That's why you're in a good mood.
Oh, it's great news.
I mean, like, legitimately great news.
Of course.
Video on video of me just sitting there, like, banging my head against the law.
Absolutely.
Because he did start, now he stopped at 6 p.m.
Like, that's why I let it go.
It's hard to say something.
What was louder?
The drums or?
No, the fucking.
Fucking.
The drums or?
involved.
Explain.
I hear him so loud every time.
I don't know whether he's watching and he, but it's like.
He's cheering.
He's cheering.
He's cheering.
Is he cheering?
I don't know.
I like this one.
Maybe get rid of this guy.
So somebody's either bringing the dog.
I've tried to look on the cameras for the dog.
Either one of those main dogs.
This is fascinating to me.
I know.
So the dog just shows up.
I think it's never there.
The person.
So I'm, we're across the hall over each other.
So she might have a boyfriend.
But next to her, no, it's different dudes.
And next to her is a different couple.
So we text the most about it.
I think it's a dog.
They don't think it's a dog.
It sounds like a dog to me.
Or could it be one of her noises?
It's so dog-like.
You got to get audio.
I mean, it's so dog.
I have.
Of the dog?
Of what I think is the dog.
Let me try to find this.
You have to.
You have to.
I got to try to find this.
I don't know where I'm going to find right now, but I've, oh, I've sent it to people.
Yeah, you've got to, I, well, nobody knows who it is.
I think it, I think it sounds like the dog.
Did I think it sounds like the dog?
Not the dog, you played one before that we didn't know me.
It could be the same one, but you didn't, you didn't mention a dog.
Oh, you want to hear the drumming one first?
Sure.
A drumming one you've played before for sure, but stick it into the mic.
Yeah.
Wow.
I have heard of this one.
It's fantastic.
I love how interesting.
to it he was.
So good.
Where's the dog one?
How old is he like four?
Two.
Two. That's adorable. It's like I'm pissed, but I know.
It's like I'm pissed but I gotta wait until it downloads and then I'll play the
The dog one because I.
Yeah, the dog one is.
Oh, okay.
I think this is the dog.
Wait, let's see.
Let's see.
Dog.
Right?
Something.
Who's that?
It's hard to tell.
What is.
going on in that apartment.
I think it's a dog, but they don't think he's a dog.
But there's like three different noises going on.
There's a, huh, and then there's someone else, and then there's whatever that creature.
Tell me you don't hear the dog.
I hear you something.
That one.
What's the one in the background?
What's that?
That sounds like a kid.
Yeah, that sounds like a dog.
It sounds like a dog.
It sounds like it.
I can't say it doesn't sound like a dog, but, and that happens often?
That is from inside my apartment.
That's the sound from inside my apartment.
Who knows what it sounds like in their apartment?
I have no idea.
It's hilarious.
And the people next door swear they don't see the dog
and there's no dog in there and I'm like...
What is it?
I don't know.
And you can't tell them while I recorded them.
Yeah, I don't know what to say.
I mean, it's so fucked up what I'm doing.
But the thing is, nobody would ever know who in it.
Like, I would never out the person.
But it's just like, it sounds like...
It sounds like multiple things going on at once.
It doesn't sound like she's really enjoying it.
But which one is she?
I don't think that's her.
Well, who's that?
I think that's somebody else.
That's the, so wait, is she a lesbian?
No, no, I think that's the dude.
You think that's a guy?
It's the guy.
I think she's, and the background one is her, I think.
She's the other one?
What the fuck is going on over there?
Well, it would be so great and a great reveal of this whole story
is if it's not even sex.
I know.
Then part of me was like, oh, is it porn?
Am I hearing porn?
But it's not, because I see the people go in on the camera.
But the dog is she shooting porn?
I don't.
Good question.
This is an interesting.
I have to be honest, I love your dating stories.
I think I like this more.
It's good.
The dog is so interesting.
And the fact that they are telling me they don't hear the dog, but I hear that high
pitch.
It's something, man.
It's something.
She did have a cat at one point, but that's not a.
That's not a cat. I don't know what that is.
Listen, there's got to be updates to the story.
I know.
Yeah, anyway.
There's a lot of other things to talk about, even though I don't know if we should.
Let's start.
Right before we started, yesterday on Big Thing, we, Mike, myself and Steph, we had watched
the Asoka trailer, we talked about it.
Mike was in a mood yesterday.
Bad mood.
It wasn't a bad mood.
It was just like he was...
But between you and me, it was a bad mood.
Was it?
I don't know.
Oh, no, it was a bad mood.
It was just, he was in what, he was one of his moods where he was just, he was looking for some shit.
And he didn't like it.
He, he doesn't know because he feels like he was too left out of the loop and that he felt he was lost because he didn't know rebels at all.
And he felt like.
It's Thrawn rebels.
Throne is rebels.
So Thrawn comes from, Timothy Zon did a novel series back.
And I think it was like 19, eight, was it really?
90s?
No, maybe in the 80s.
He did a series of books
called Air to the Empire.
And Thrawn first appeared there,
and he was like the villain of the books.
It was really what Star Wars fans had,
because there was nothing else.
It was these books,
and they're very popular.
So much so that Dave Faloni
brought Throne into Rebels
in season,
I want to tell you, they're two or three.
Okay.
Sabian, too?
Yes, Sabine's part.
This is Rebel season,
I mean, it clearly is.
Okay. It clearly is.
So maybe Mike felt like that because
Mike's not used to feeling like that with Star Wars.
I feel like I always feel like that with Star Wars.
Like you're always kind of on the out a little bit?
Which is totally fine by me because I don't,
I know that I don't read all the things that are canon.
I know I don't watch any of the animated shows.
So of course, the people who do are going to get an elevated experience than me.
It's not I'm on the outs enough that I'm confused.
It's just like, oh, that's the other.
Sabine and Thrawn are people I don't know.
Right.
And you want to learn about it?
And I'm curious.
So I guess his thing was whether or not, if you didn't know them, are you going to be invested?
And I said, well, that's their job to get you invested in the live action characters, right?
So do you, you told me you thought.
So here's what I think is happening.
Osoca I know now, which is good.
From Manila.
Yeah.
So at least I have knowledge of her.
I don't know anything really about the, like, all of the references to Anakin training her.
and her not wanting to talk about her past
and what happened in her past and stuff.
That's a TV show, though.
I'll figure that out.
And obviously she has history as Sabine.
She's got a team back up with her
to eliminate Thron.
So you're less confused than Mike.
That's what I gathered from that.
And then also, they kept dropping the theme, right?
Like, it's not easy to be a Jedi.
We have to be the good ones.
You have to make the tough decisions.
So I'm assuming they're going to be put
in some really challenging positions
while trying to do what's best for the greater good.
Yeah.
And so the way that the series ended was like it took place this little scene that took place
like right after Jedi and it was that leads up to the events in this.
And it's basically Sabine teaming up with Soka.
She's got the short here at this point.
And then they go off to find their friend and Thrawn.
So that's that's the very last thing that you see.
see in Rebels season four, I believe it was.
So it is clearly, like Rebels fans are going to lose their minds, right?
It's clearly the live action season five of Rebels.
Cool.
Now, the question is, and I'm sure Follone is very aware of this.
You have to get the people who are not going to watch the series.
You're going to get some people that go, oh, I want to watch the series now and check out
the series, so I know what's going on.
Yeah, I'm not going to do that.
You're not going to do that.
So you'll, so you fall into one of these two categories, and I think I know which one
is. It's either category one. I think I got it. If they can get me on board to where I go,
oh, that must have happened in the show, but they've invested me enough so far and told me what
I need to know for this. So I'm just going to take it as they have a backstory. If I choose to
look at that, that's really. And then these other people are going, I'm not watching this. I'm
going to be too lost. I'm not watching the show. I'm out. I think you're obviously in category yet.
Yeah, well, just because I, first of all, I trust that Flon, he's going to understand.
that at least half the people
probably haven't seen rebels.
So I think he's going to make it
so that I care about them.
And if he doesn't, then he didn't do his job
and then I won't watch it.
But I'm going to give it a shot.
And as long as I like the characters
and I'm not like, what the fuck is going on?
Then who cares?
I think that that's, I think I think
that's where Mike believes it's going to go.
But I don't think it's going to be as confusing.
I just think that it's, like I said,
it's one of those things where
if you did get invested in it
and you did watch Rebels, it's going to mean more to you, right?
So you liked the trailer?
I did like the trailer.
Does Steph like the trailer?
She loved it.
Yeah, and she's a massive Rebels fan.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I'm-OCA looks really good.
It looks great, yeah, and I think that...
No, I'm saying she, like, yeah, I think she looks really cool.
She does, yeah, and so I'm excited.
It looks, the main thing that Steph and I both said is compared to, like, the last season, like,
Mandalorian.
This seems to have a clear-cut story, and they know what they want to do from, hopefully, from A to
A to Z.
What's a Sabine's
story?
So she was a
Mandalorian
that was
kind of on the outs
and then she was actually
the one who
had the Dark Sabre
and gave it to Boca Tan.
Because I feel like
I've heard her name
a bunch of times before.
She was the one
and her mom
kind of ran
she comes from
a long line of
Mandalorians but she
I thought you can't
just give the dark saver
to somebody.
That was the whole
thing behind it
that's where
that's where
when Boatatam
was talking about
she was like
someone gave it to her
in the past
and she was
So I guess that wasn't confusing to me then, but I didn't have all the tea that you have.
You were aware of it.
You just didn't know where it came from.
Yeah.
I was like, oh, somebody can't do that.
And somebody did.
That's right.
So that's where it's going to, that comes out in August.
Have you been watching Secret Invasion?
Only the first two episodes.
Same.
Kind of fell off.
Yeah.
What is that?
I don't know.
And it's not because I like the first two episodes.
I just didn't have any desire to go back.
Not in the mood.
That's what it was.
I'm not in the mood for it.
I will.
But I'm in the mood for the bear.
tell you that.
Yeah.
So season one of the bear, I waited a long time to watch it.
And then I finally got to it because it wasn't even you that told me about it at first.
It was not at first.
Oh, piss off.
It wasn't.
It wasn't.
It was actually Ellis.
I told Ellis about it.
Was it?
It wasn't.
Was it coy?
I can't remember.
I think you told me.
You might have told me.
I don't remember.
I thought someone else told me first.
Play the tape.
Which is also possible.
Nonetheless, I watched it.
and loved it when I watched it.
Because I love Jeremy Allen White from Shameless.
So I started watching the bear when the bear dropped.
Oh, I believe that you probably watched it before anybody else.
There's no doubt.
I believe that you didn't listen to me.
It's probably also true.
But when that show was over, the beauty of waiting so long is I didn't have to wait
that long for season two.
So when season two...
Didn't they not drop it all at once?
The first one again.
Yeah, I feel like I watched that week to week.
I wonder if it was a mistake to drop this one.
I think it was not the right call.
Yeah, I don't think so.
I think it was definitely not the right call.
Especially with the quality of the episodes.
I was shocked when it happened, which is why I don't think they did it the first time.
When the bear came out that night, I went to click on it, and then I was like, fuck, every episode's here?
Okay, let me get to work.
You know why I did that.
Why they did that.
But either way.
Probably because six and seven are the ones everybody's talking about and they didn't want to lose people getting there.
I don't know.
I mean, I think that this whole, I'm not going to spoil it for it.
anybody but like the
the way that they
I was curious because of the way they were kind of doing
episodes I think it was like three and four
and the way they were focused on on certain things
and I said interesting that they're doing this way
but then when you see where they're going with it
and how they're doing it and the reasoning behind it
of why they're doing it you're like oh
there's so much impact and this is how you develop
characters and how you develop characters
inside of a 30 minute episode although I think
episode six is like an hour yeah but is that
why they drop them all once
not sure but I will tell you
that everyone was talking about episode six.
I saw people tweeting about episode six.
I saw everyone talking about six, six, six, six, six, six.
Let's see.
Because sometimes when people hype shit up,
I'm at a point, I'm like, it's too hyped now.
It delivered times 20.
It's amazing.
It is so good.
It is one of the best episodes of television I have seen in years,
because it's shot like a film.
It looks like an independent film.
The acting is, I already think the Emmys are a sham after today's,
or I guess yesterday's.
nominations. If, I know there were people who already got nominated from the bear, I guess was that
for last, for the season one? The people got nominated for the bear. Must have been because this
wouldn't have made the cut. Yeah. So if there's a particular performance in episode six,
are you not doing spoilers? No, not right. I don't think so because I don't think people,
everybody's seen it. Okay. But there's something that happens in the kitchen with a person who's
running the action in the kitchen. We'll just say that. Um, which is not a spoiler, but it's the
bear. Um, but that, um, but that, um, but that,
performance, if it is not nominated, someone to be arrested. Yeah, and did you know about that performance at all?
I did. I think I did, I saw it through, I don't know where I saw it through. I don't know if it was like a
little teaser. I saw something, but I was prepared when they were announcing that that particular
character was coming in, like, I was like, oh, that person must play it because I had heard. But then there were
other people. I didn't know. Okay. And I was like, oh,
There were other people who showed up in that episode as well, though, that I did not know.
And episode seven, there was a big person that I had no idea it was going to be in it either.
Yes.
And so you and Ellis both said to me, you think six is good, wait till seven.
Seven is phenomenal.
It's phenomenal.
But then what you said clarified it, but six is a better overall episode.
You said, I think, accurately, seven just made you feel good.
I just like seven the best of the season.
I can understand that.
is definitely the best episode of the show, period, so far.
The Sopranos, one of the most famous episodes in The Sopranos,
was an episode called Pine Barrens.
I've seen all the Sopranos.
Pine Barons is the one with, uh...
Where's your thing?
It's right there.
Pine Barons is the one where Pauly and Christopher are in the woods.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.
It's one of the most famous episodes of it.
I think, and it's, people say,
what's your favorite episode of Sopranos?
And nine and ten times people will say Pine Barron's.
I think this is not part of Pine Barron's.
I really know.
It is.
That's a great episode of TV.
I hear you, though.
It's amazing.
I just think that oftentimes,
after one of the great episodes,
the next episode is kind of a lackluster.
I couldn't agree more.
So this was the perfect one to punch.
And it's funny that when you guys said that,
and even though I remember what I said to myself was,
it's not as good as six,
but it's fantastic.
And I wish, and I actually,
and I immediately went to Star Wars.
And I'm like, every time there's an amazing episode,
the next one is just like, okay.
Or sometimes the episode right before the finale
is always better than the finale.
Yeah, the penultimate rocks.
Right.
Right.
And it's like more one, two punches like this
because this was like, and it actually,
I'm on eight right now.
And because there's a particular scene
that happens in eight
that has so much more impact
because of how monumental seven is.
Yeah, the character development in seven
is amazing too because if we didn't have seven,
you wouldn't.
believe. Yeah, the moment that I'm talking about in particular. And then show got nominated for
Best Comedy. It's just comedic moments, but this is a drama. Well, actually, I wonder if this is
for the second season, Christian, because this is, it was nominated last year in comedy. Oh.
So that would meet. How was, if you watch episode six, I mean, I guess there are comedic moments
in six for sure. Let's see what the episodes that are nominated. But it's a drama, man. I just don't
believe that the bear's comedy cousin was nominated um Evan moss yeah I love him he's fantastic
I think he is just so he almost like kind of overshadowed everybody in this season yeah he's so good
I love what they did with I love what he is everybody in the show's great I love what they did with
this character in this season because I thought he was I think he had the possibility of becoming one
note and he is the farthest thing from it now so I'm looking at the things that the bear was nominated
for best directing for a comedy series.
So is it per episode or how does that work?
Christopher Stur.
I think he did all of them though.
Yeah, I think so too.
So that wouldn't tell me what this is going to best, let's see,
writing, the bear, he got nominated in general too.
I don't say episodes, that's it.
Yeah.
I don't know.
But I was speaking, sticking with the Emmys,
all the things that came out today,
they were missing so many different things.
Like they nominate Andor, but they didn't nominate Diego Luna.
It would be fair for a second.
Yeah.
And I'm actually going to press you to do actual numbers.
How many of these shows have you seen?
Tell me.
For Best Drama series and or...
This is what I did to Mike yesterday, by the way, too.
Really?
I said, you can't say anything you haven't seen it.
Yeah.
And or Better Call Saul.
I mean, I've seen...
Not this season.
Yeah.
The Crown?
I've seen a lot of the Crown, but not the season.
House of the Dragon?
Yes.
Last of Us.
Yes.
Succession?
No.
White Lotus?
No.
Yellow Jackets.
A lot of it.
Not the season.
First season and not a lot of it.
And not the season.
So you,
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,
you've seen 3 of 8.
Yeah, I have dramas.
Right.
Give me comedies.
Okay, I'll give you comedies.
Probably saw less.
It's hard for you, I'm sure, to know.
So, okay, out of comedies,
Abbott Elementary.
I've seen it, don't love it.
Not this season.
Yeah. No, but I've,
everybody raves about that show.
But you didn't see the season.
You actually told me, you told me I need to go past three episodes, right?
Yeah, I thought it was so generic.
Barry.
First season.
Not the season.
The bear?
Yes.
Jury duty?
No.
Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
First season.
Not the season.
Only murders in the building.
First season.
Not the season.
Ted Lassow.
Three episodes.
Not the season.
Wednesday.
Yes.
Okay.
So you've had two of those.
Right.
So I think it's challenging.
I don't disagree with your assessment in the Harrison Ford.
Well, what about, so give me this then.
Give me, he would be nominated for best supporting actor in a comedy series.
Who got nominated at Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series?
Okay.
Best supporting actor in a comedy series.
Anthony Kerrigan and Barry.
That's the...
Yeah, you think he's hysterical.
Noho Hank.
He's good.
Phil Dunstan, Ted Lassow, Brett Goldstein and Ted Lassow,
James Marsden and jury duty,
Evan Moss and the Bear,
Tyler James Williams in Abbott Elementary,
and Henry Winkler and Barry.
I would have...
Again, I haven't seen all...
them too, but for me, even Morrison, which I know you love Marston in it, do you think
Marston? I think he should win this probably. Really? He, in jury duty, I think his, what he had to do
there. I mean, it was. So you've seen Barry and you've seen all the season. Everyone talks about
Barry isn't the best one out of all of it. And Henry Winkler and the, and the other, Anthony
Carragon. Anthony Gargan, have both been nominated. Do you think that they were better than Harrison
Ford this year? This year. In shrinking. In shrinking. I think that.
that here's what I'm having a hard time with the comedy category.
Barry and Barry was not a comedy this year.
That's what I heard.
Period.
So it's so hard to compare.
Do I think they were better actors than he was?
I think equal.
But do I think that Harrison Ford was funnier, definitely?
Right.
So it's like,
and that's what I said.
I agree with you on Harrison Ford.
I agree with you there.
But I don't think that these are trash nominations.
I don't say trash nominations,
but I just think the fact that Harrison Ford was not nominated as silly.
And he wasn't nominated for 1923 either.
I think the lack of love for...
Tyler Sheridan's stuff.
It is egregious.
I mean, the fact that the best performer,
the best performance every year on TV for the last five years
has been Kelly Riley.
Yeah.
What is that?
Do you think they just have something against him?
I really do.
Yeah.
Because Yellowstone, you can't argue that Yellowstone,
it's like the succession of the middle of the country.
And it's the most.
watch show, the most love show.
It's prestige drama.
For it to get shut out every year where the show's not nominated,
Costner's not nominated, she's not nominated,
every year this show gets shut out, it's like,
what the, what?
Yeah, there's something there because that's crazy.
I mean, it makes no sense.
And she is like hands down, not only should she be nominated,
she should be a five-time winner.
I think the other thing, though, too, is that like, so where,
and then you look at like, Andor was nominated, right?
But like, so who were the drama actors that were nominated?
Okay, let's see.
Because the fact that Andor was nominated, but Diego Luna was not.
Jeff Bridges and the old man, which I didn't know was eligible for this.
So he was great in that.
Now, I love that series.
And I think he's great in it.
It's not a full thing because unfortunately he was, you know, that's when he was diagnosed.
Right.
And he's, thank God since beaten it.
But it was an abrupt show because they just had to finish it.
His performance was great.
It was good.
but I'm on a full series that was able to have a start to finish
with a performance that was a start to finish,
I would put Diego Luna over Bridges, and I love Bridges in that show.
All three people from Succession, Kieran Culkin, Brian Cox, Jeremy Strong,
so it's hard for you to say, Pedro Pascal from The Last of Us.
I definitely give it to him over Diego.
Yeah, I would too.
And then Bob Odenkirk from Better Call Saul.
Which you got to give him, even if his performance was terrible,
which it wasn't, I'm sure.
And that's it.
Yeah, I would, yeah, I would take,
take out Bridges.
I love Bridges.
I wouldn't, but I see what you're saying.
I love Bridges.
I loved the old man.
That's one of my,
I told you.
I was my favorite show show shows out of it.
It was just,
it just ends.
The show does it ends.
Like,
not like no ending.
It just like,
it ends like a regular episode.
I just can't believe
I'm looking at this list
of best actress and drama series
and it,
like,
the fact that Kelly Riley is not on here.
It's nuts, right?
It's nuts.
It's nuts.
It's just incredible.
Melanie Linsky
nominated for two Emmys.
Yellow Jackets and Last of Us?
Yeah.
See, I don't think she, I've seen, from what I've seen in Yellow Jackets, I think she's incredible.
And I liked her in Last Us, but I don't think that was an Emmy performance.
You know what's wild?
She is amazing in Yellow Jackets.
Yeah.
She's really amazing.
But this season of the people in Yellow Jackets, she wouldn't have gotten my nom.
Hmm.
Yeah, see, again, I saw her from season one, but I think she's an incredible actress.
I don't think that her performance in Last of Us is an Emmy nominated performance.
I think a lot of this is politics.
She's so, so liked because in Yellow Jackets,
it's really not her season as much like I'm looking at some of the other.
What was she nominated for?
She was nominated for what category for her last,
of the best supporting actress?
Let me look.
I just saw it in an article.
Probably like guests.
Has to be.
Let's see.
I'll let you know when I get to it.
They should have like a sci-fi fantasy category also.
Hmm.
It really should.
Oh, wow, Juliette Lewis nominated for Welcome to Chippendales.
A lot of love for Welcome to Chippendales.
Oh, wow.
Why am I my hard time saying Chippendales?
I want to call it Chickendales.
You told me a Sadie started watching it and I liked it.
Yeah, it was very good.
It's interesting.
I'll tell you it was very good, Rocks.
What?
Have you been, have you actually, have you heard of Rocket Money?
No, what's Rocket Money?
So Rocket Money.
I'm going to, you actually, I think you need this.
I'm not even kidding you.

It just happened to me with this flower app that I wanted to
diagnose my plans and then I ended up paying for it for
six months and ever you see.

hey, you're subscribed to this.
Push the button from our app.

My perfect day has sand, salt, water, and friends. But my moderate to severe plaques
psoriasis can take me out of the moment. Now I'm all in with clearer skin
thanks to Sky Rizzi. Risenkizum at Rizza, a prescription only 150 milligram injection for
adults who are candidates for systemic or phototherapy. With Sky Rizzi, most people saw 90%
clearer skin and many were even 100% plaque-free at four months. Sky Rizzi is just four doses a
year after two starter doses.
Don't use if allergic to Skyrizy, serious allergic reactions, increased infections, or
lower ability to fight them may occur. Before treatment get checked for infections and
tuberculosis, tell your doctor about any flu-like symptoms or vaccines.
Thanks to Skyrizzi, there's nothing on my skin, and that means everything.
Ask your doctor about Skyrizzi, the number one dermatologist prescribed biologic in psoriasis.
Visit skyrizzi.com or call 1866 Skyrizzi to learn more.
Okay.
What else?
You know, the Oppenheimer reactions came out.
Did you see that?
I saw that people are saying it's like his best.
They're losing their minds.
Yeah, they're losing their minds.
It's like three hours they say, but it's so epic.
It's like Scorsese three hour type.
You have me doing IMAX.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Shot and IMAX cameras.
Yeah, so we're doing IMAX.
I don't know what's the difference between IMAX and 70.
I forget the full.
I'm not going to, I've never done this before and I'm going to do it.
I'm going to call Bibiani.
Oh, my God.
I'm going to call Bibiani.
What are you going to say?
I'm going to talk about the...
He's going to tell us the difference.
Okay.
He'll do it.
So I'm going to tell...
Don't bring up the soap.
He'll bring up the soap.
But let's...
I'm going to bring him up.
Let's see if he actually picks up.
Tell him he's on the air.
I hope so.
Because I want to know.
Yeah.
So we got the option for the screener,
screening which we wanted to see.
And I texted you.
Hey, Christian.
Hey, William, I'm on the air at the moment.
I just wanted to preface that before.
I don't want you to be like, oh, you were on the air,
and I didn't know what you were bringing up.
We were talking about, I'm with Roxy.
Hi.
Hi, Roxy.
And we started talking about Oppenheimer.
And we started talking about the difference between IMAX and 70.
And I started to get into the description.
I was like, you know who would be much better at explaining this is William?
So, Roxy, go ahead.
Yeah, I just asked because for Oppenheimer, we got the option.
Do you want to watch it in IMAX or?
70 millimeter?
It's millimeter, yeah.
Millimeter, okay, 70 millimeter.
And I text to Christian, like,
what do I want to watch it in?
Because I know nothing about these things.
And it's shot with IMAX cameras.
So what's the difference?
And is it the same answer for every movie?
It's actually a little complicated.
So I'll try to be as simple about it as I can.
The IMAX format started out as, I believe,
with 70 millimeter format or at the very least a
high end format that was shot on film.
And it was shot in a very particular,
way with very specific cameras that gave a very immersive, gigantic look to every movie,
was often using documentaries and then gradually started being used in films.
However, the IMAX name no longer guarantees that you're seeing something in actual
that was actually shot in IMAX.
In fact, a very common sort of insult thrown at IMAX theaters you might find of various AMCs
or other major chains is calling it
LIMACS because
just showing a movie on a
really big screen doesn't
actually mean it was
actually projected or shot
in 70
millimeter or anything comparable.
So if my advice
to you is this,
if you can
find it in 70 millimeter
and they're actually advertising that it's in
70 millimeter, see it
70 millimeter. You will see the best.
version of it. If you see it in IMAX, without doing more research, I can't guarantee that you will.
See, I think for, I think Williams 100% accurate, except the difference with Nolan.
But Oppenheimer, though, no one has been talking about shooting it on IMAX cameras and they're doing it.
That's true, but that doesn't necessarily mean every movie theater is going to be show,
I'm going to have the equipment necessary to show it that way. That's right. That's right.
The one, well, the one, the one, the one, the one, the one, the one, the one that we're seeing at Universal is shot,
is equipped for iMacs
and that's why they're having it there but you're a hundred percent right
like there's one in Century City that's not really
a little bit so 70 millimeter
is what then if it's not
an iMacs what is it it's just a regular
screen
well it's a big movie screen
again every the problem is
that every it used to be that iMac's
theaters had a very
specific standard of quality
the screen was exactly this way
exactly this size
the film would only be projected
this one particular way, this one particular camera,
and the films had to be shot that way.
And then it started getting kind of farmed out as a brand,
and that brand got really diluted.
Right, but you told me that IMAX is shot in 70mm.
IMAX used to be shot in 70 millimeter.
Now there's no guarantee of it.
If you're in an IMAX theater,
that doesn't mean you're watching a film that was shot in IMAX,
nor does it necessarily mean that a movie that was shot in IMAX
is being shown the best possible way,
unless you're at particularly
Bibbs, but what was that?
I totally hear you on that, but I'm just confused on specifically for Oppenheimer,
which we know is shot in 70 millimeter.
What is the difference between IMAX and 70 millimeter?
For the one, so I guess for the, are you going on, are you going on Tuesday?
Yeah, I know what you're saying.
Are you going on Tuesday, Bibs?
That's a plan, yeah.
Okay, so, so yeah, they gave you the option of either seeing.
I went to see 70 millimeter.
You went to 70 millimeter.
Because I know for a fact that that's going to be in 70 millimeter.
Got it.
I could do more research and I could say with absolute confidence,
yeah, that I'm X1 is going to be great, maybe even better.
I don't know, but at least I know this is going to be shut up to 30 millimeter.
So if you're uncertain, try to find 70mm is my best recommendation.
You'll see an impressive version of the film,
provided, of course, the movie theater that you're seeing it at
actually has a projectionist who knows what they're doing, which is no guarantee.
I have seen bad 70 millimeter screenings of both the Hateful 8 and Dunkirk
from movie theaters that didn't know how to handle film prints anymore.
So there's always a danger.
So right now the first impressions of out of the premiere was that this is like one of
Nolan's best.
What do you,
are you expecting,
you have high expectations of this one?
Are you waiting to see?
No,
you don't.
No,
I try to have any expectations.
I think expectations ruin a movie because you start planning to see a movie that
you have an idea of in your head and you're not necessarily open to whatever the movie
actually is.
we have seen time and time again very recently reactions or even early reviews coming out of screenings of I don't know films like the flash for example where they're very hyperbolic everyone's very happy everyone's very high on it because that's the premiere it's the big screening the energy is really high the audience is super into it but that's not the experience everyone is going to have so for me I don't pay any attention to that whatsoever in fact to look upon all those all those early reactions with a
extreme skepticism because the reason why those are getting such a big headlines
who make such a big deal out of them is because they're trying to promote a movie.
The people who are getting those quotes out there, they want people to see the movie,
whether or not it's any good.
You're not saying that's not.
Christopher Nolan, the dude is consistent.
The dude, yeah, I don't like every movie he's ever made, but he's very consistent.
He makes impressive films.
I will see it.
I hope for the best.
I hope it's one of the better Christopher Nolan's films, but we won't know until we see it.
All right. We'll find out Bibbs' thoughts on Tuesday, as I'm sure he'll be between.
Make sure you follow him. It's at William Bibiani, correct?
Mm-hmm. Yeah. And I'm also on blue sky as well if anyone's there.
Awesome. All right. Well, thank you, William. It's good talking to you.
Thanks a calls. Bye.
So do you have a clear understanding still?
No. No. I didn't think so.
What's the IMAX one? What are the...
I know what he was talking about.
Yeah, I get what he was saying, but for this, if it's not in 70 millimeter, what is the IMAX in?
Well, I do think because what Nolan is saying,
and what they said, they shot it on these cameras,
and they shot, and for where we're seeing it,
that's why I chose IMAX,
because we're going to see it in the way that it's intended,
and it's intended on this big IMAX screenings,
and it's going to shot of like,
so William's not wrong.
What screen is he seeing it?
He's seeing in the 70 million.
Which is what?
Which is just, I think it's basically shot on the same side of cameras,
but the way that it's, like,
if it's projected on these screens the right way through,
It's less big, though?
I think it's around the same.
I don't figure out.
But I think the IMAX is set up for bigger.
Either way.
I'm just not going to pretend I know.
We're seeing it on Tuesday.
I always, he and I have always not seen eye to eye when it comes to.
I understand his point of the expectation side of it.
I've, I always think you need to have expectations of a movie.
I think that it's fun to have expectations of a movie.
I think that he's not wrong when if you allow your expectations to devalue your thought
because that's the way you wanted the movie.
Then I think he's right.
But I think that you can have expectations.
Go, well, I didn't, oh, shit, I would have loved if it would have went that particular way.
I thought I was going to see that.
But I actually really liked their choices.
And I thought the choices that they did make were even better than what I was expecting.
So I always push back against the don't have expectations of a movie to these without expectations.
Or your human being.
Yeah, I want to see.
And I want to see, you know, like I do have expectations because I think I also have expectations
because I think Nolan is a fantastic director.
And so I have high expectations the same way I do for a Tarantino movie
or a Kathleen Biglo movie or any of the types of movies.
I always have expectations.
What am I expecting from this movie?
I don't have a lot of like, oh, I want it to look like this, and I want that.
I know I'm getting good performances.
I know it's going to look incredible on the screen.
I know that the music's going to be next level.
And I think I'll get all that.
It would be nice to, because you didn't,
I didn't love Tenet?
I thought Tenet was okay.
I didn't love it.
Yeah.
It'd be nice to, and obviously I know this, I know partially the story of Oppenheimer.
It'd be nice to walk out feeling like it was a well-told story.
Yeah, I think we'll get that.
I think we're going to get that.
And I think the other, there are two more, um...
What's up with you?
Keep going to Mike?
Because the stupid way that the stream deck is set up.
You're missing Mike or something?
No, I'm hitting the wrong.
No.
No, after his performance yesterday.
But what's the other thing?
there was the two
oh there's two other trailers that came out
that were that were real
biopics I guess
but there was Napoleon
which is coming out do you see the
Joaquin Phoenix
Ridley Scott
isn't Napoleon supposed to be really short
so here's the thing that's what I said
so people
and I love this is one of those few times
that I really want I'll give major credit to
well I shouldn't say that I'm going to give credit to the internet
that one is something I don't do,
but what I do often say is
our viewers and our listeners
presented in a way that was super respectful.
They're like, I see the same thing.
I said he's, the only thing is that he's a little shorter.
Two things.
One, the average height
for back then for French,
or it was like around 5, 6, 5, 7, he was 5, 6, right?
Joaquin Phoenix, how's how's all you think of Joaquin Phoenix is?
511?
I thought 511, 6 feet.
It's 5'8.
Huh.
Something about two inches
shorter than what Napoleon was.
So I had less of a problem.
I didn't really have a much of a lot of...
How tall are you?
About little over six feet.
How tall are you think I am?
5'3.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Good talk.
Yeah, good talk.
So, but I would say that my initial...
I didn't really have a major problem with it in general,
but I was like, that's what everyone's going to say.
Yeah.
And then when people pointed it out, A, 5, 6 was kind of an average height for French dude back
then.
And why is it, the whole thing is like he had a complex.
A whole thing.
A complex.
Maybe he wasn't fighting just French dudes.
And so, you know, comparatively.
Why are we getting taller?
I don't know.
But listen, I'm not friends.
What's the average type for French dude now?
You got to ask them.
Call him up.
I'm going to Google it.
Yeah.
But, and either.
I don't know any French dudes to call.
Otherwise, I probably would.
But the movie looks good, by the way.
It's Redley Scott.
I like him.
Looks good.
And then the other one was the Bob Marley.
Marley.
You see a Bob Marley trailer?
No.
You has a music.
I can't believe you didn't watch it.
I've just been in a world.
A different world.
Yeah.
But it's the same dude from Secret Invasion.
What's his name?
Kingsley Benadide.
Oh, okay.
He's awesome.
Really?
He played Malcolm X in one night in Miami.
Average Frenchman is currently 5 feet, 10.10.7, 6 inches tall.
So they grew.
That's tall?
Yeah.
Why Frenchmen?
Maybe that's not a true fact.
People are telling me.
I have no idea.
But either way, what I will say is the fact is,
Joaquin Phoenix is 5-8.
Yeah.
Five, six, five, eight.
Yep.
What-Ebs?
Yeah.
What-Ebs?
Yes, Christian.
What-Eves?
Honestly, what-evs?
So my five-and-a-half-year-old says.
What-Eves?
It's hilarious.
Where did you get it?
I don't know.
I don't know where she got half this stuff.
It's hilarious.
I told you the one time when she was like three.
I'm the master.
I'm like, the master of what?
She was the master of the gods.
Oh.
She's three years old.
Okay, the master of the gods.
What-Eves?
What-haves.
What else do we need to talk about?
Oppenheimer.
We talked about the Emmys.
Blue Beetle.
Did you watch that?
You didn't watch that either.
I don't watch shit.
That's coming out soon.
It's coming out in August.
I haven't been watching any trailers.
Okay.
But you're stoked on this, and that's your boy.
So I will say that I'm stoked on it because it's Cholo.
My compliment of the trailer was that it cost $120 million and the CGI for what they looked good,
as opposed to use.
looks like, and I like the flash.
I like the flash, and I,
I thought that the, um,
see, some of the CGI was laughable in it.
And apparently on purpose.
And apparently.
I don't like that. Excuse me. Um, but $120 million and it used well.
What,
the negative side of what I saw in the trailer yesterday was,
it looks like a movie I've seen before.
Mm-hmm.
Um, and I really didn't like the kind of spy kids bit at the end where the
grandmother has like this gun and she's shooting it.
It's like it felt corny to me.
But I think he looks great.
I think the, again,
the positive side of it is I think that the family aspect and dynamic,
if they hit it, well, is going to be the thing.
You know how the first Shazam?
That's what I was just thinking about when you said that.
The first Shazam was all you talked about was it wasn't,
you don't remember,
like there was one like scary kind of boardroom scene.
But the most part,
what you think about that movie is that dynamic with the foster family
and how it worked and how you believed it.
Like that thing.
I think if they hit that, that's what people are going to talk about in this movie.
I'm going to see it, no matter.
Me too.
If I get invited.
If you get invited, we'll say good luck to you.
Is that everything as far as news and then we can get into some TV stuff?
Barbie.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So you can't.
Barbie.
Barbie.
Barbie.
It's an embargo.
When is it?
There's a review embargo that is, I think Tuesday is when the review embargo drops.
But the social reaction.
When are you seeing it?
I'm seeing it on Monday.
Same.
You've seen it already.
Yeah.
Okay.
So I saw...
So we'll talk about it on Wednesday.
So the social...
Well, you can do social reaction.
The social reaction that I saw, I saw a few.
I saw a few that didn't like it.
Then I saw Perry's.
Yeah.
I have so much love for Perry, but I just...
You guys are never on the same thing.
I wrote back to her on Twitter and it was just like,
just another movie that you and I are on complete opposite ends in Spectrum about.
And you know what?
In my initial review that I was doing on this,
and then I am not going to say this,
but like I almost want to say
so many people I saw didn't like it on social media.
And without whatever, this is my favorite movie of the year by far.
I mean, by now.
So that's what Kalanowski said.
Kallanowski said,
Roxy has five favorite movies of the year.
No, I don't.
No, I don't.
You said, across the Spiderverse.
No, no, no, I never said that.
There's been three.
You never said that.
There's been three movies that have been my favorite.
My favorite of the year that I had seen so far.
Air.
And then I saw Elemental.
Okay.
And it was Elemental.
And then I saw Barbie and it's Barbie.
You don't change your favorite.
You don't.
That's fair?
I'm just saying.
It's not like now it's elemental.
It's just been replaced.
Yeah, I replace them.
Right.
Now Air is my third favorite movie of the year.
And Elemental is my second favorite movie of year.
That's how I make my list.
That's how I do my TV list.
Fair.
I do my movie list.
So.
Barbie hit the, you had expectations.
for the movie.
Yeah.
And it deliver for you.
Okay, the few things that I will say is that like,
if it doesn't deliver for me,
it delivers for no one, right?
Like, I am, I should be the target down on this.
I should be, because it is more mature.
It's like me not liking Creed one.
Right.
Like, that would be a big problem.
Right.
So I'm glad that I loved it.
But also, this takes a huge swing
and I'm kind of surprised Perry didn't like it
because,
like, I would have,
I wanted to say in my review was if you don't like it, it went over your head.
Interesting.
And that is so not how I feel about Perry.
Perry is very nuanced watcher.
But to me, that's a very bibs tweet.
Yeah.
That's a very bibbs.
I know.
And I didn't say it, but that's how I feel like, because there's parts of it, I message this to
you.
I think that you are going to really like a lot of it.
And some of it, I think you're going to be like, hmm, that's not what I was hoping
they would do there.
I mean, look, again, there's only so much you can say.
But like, so I see it on Monday.
then we see Oppenheimer on Tuesday.
I will have both...
One to punch.
Yeah, it'll be one to two.
And I will have that both out of the theater reactions up on Monday and Tuesday with some
reviews to follow and then we'll be going to Comic-Con, which will be interesting.
Remember, if you didn't, Katie's show, live show is all sold out.
So you can watch her live stream, which we'll be doing on Saturday, 4 to 6 p.m.
And you can check out that by going to blah, blah, blah, blah, katie.com.
Have you watched the podcast
It Rocks?
Yeah, I checked at the...
Rice?
Yeah.
What did you think?
Really interesting.
I'm like so...
Katie's so endearing.
Good, good, good, good.
It was like very fun for me to watch and bizarre
because I like look over at the set.
You see the set, yeah.
But it was great, wasn't he?
She's really good at it.
And so we just put episode three up now.
Episode four, we announced episode four,
Glenn Howardton.
I'm just stoked on that.
Which I'll definitely check out.
We talked about...
It's always sunny.
We talk about...
I was a bit of the first one, too, with the two of you guys.
Okay, yeah.
Yeah, she was excited to it.
So the way that we're doing is like every other episode is her and I.
And every other episode is a guest.
Question that maybe I should ask you off camera,
but I'm gonna ask you on camera anyway.
How come you're not sitting in on some of the interviews?
It's just like because of the two seats
and just the way that it goes.
Not what I want to do.
Just not helpful for the show.
No, and it's, and Katie and I talked about it.
It should be a straight up one-on-one conversation
with her and the guest.
And that's why I have my show for that too.
My purpose on the show is A, to produce it and B, to recap the episodes with her afterwards
and talk to her about how she's feeling about it and kind of watching her progress as a podcast,
conversationalist, more so than an interviewer.
Yeah, it's not, it's not, I mean, if I'm...
It's a cool format.
Yeah, I'm here, like, if she needs me for facts and stuff, too.
Like, there's a great moment with Glenn Howerton.
That's really funny that Brett and I both kind of chimed in to kind of have Katie's back on in the most endearing.
fun way for the book. Glenn's awesome.
That's great. Awesome.
And it's...
What does she know him from?
Life?
They were like... They were like...
They live in the same neighborhood, I think.
But I also think that they met at like a game...
No, they met it. They met at Sam Whitworth's place.
Oh.
Yeah. So I, again, let that...
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
When the episode drops. But that's next week. That's Glenn Howardtown on Katie's show.
All right. So, Roxy, you got some TV for me?
Yeah. Okay. So I'm only focusing on two picks this week,
because these are the two
that you guys have been jamming down my throats
and I'm so glad that you did.
That's what she said.
I was going to bring up the neighbor.
All right.
The first one is Platonic.
Plotonic is that show with Seth Rogen and Rose Burns.
Oh, yes.
That I have been hearing everybody say
is one of the best,
and it actually had its series finale this week.
So you're not too far behind if you want to binge it all.
I binge it all in a day because it's really endearing.
It's super funny.
They're just great.
The show's great.
It's a nice, easy watch.
And I think it's an ode to anybody who's ever had a best friend of the opposite gender,
which is like not talked about on TV very often.
I'm so happy and this is no spoilers.
But the show's called Platonic and it's true to its name.
It's like these are two besties that are platonic besties.
happen to be one guy, one girl, and they both have their own love lives and lives in general.
And like, when they're together, it's hysterical and debauchous and fun, but it's not like a line
crossing show. And I think that...
Yet?
No.
Okay.
All right.
I don't think they're going to do that because I just think it defeats the purpose of the show,
which is like, this is my homie.
Right.
And I'm allowed to have a homie like this.
And I just love it.
I think they did it so perfectly.
but they're also realistic about it.
Like how does your husband feel about that being your homie?
And like what questions are you allowed to ask or boundaries are you allowed to set?
But also all this under the umbrella of it's comedy.
And it's funny and raunchy and really well done.
I can't think of a thing that Seth Rogen does that I don't like.
I mean, he's just really good.
So this was on there.
And then the other one that I am halfway through binging.
What's that on, by the way?
It's also Apple.
Okay.
So Apple's just been killing it.
I say also because the one I'm about about it is all.
And I'm going to bring up an Apple one after that.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Go ahead.
Do I know what it is?
I think so.
Okay.
This next one is Silo.
You guys have been telling me Silo is one of the best shows of the year.
I put out my top 10 list of the year for the first half and I hadn't seen Silo yet.
Now that I have it probably.
Silo's awesome.
Yeah, I'm only a few episodes.
I'm only four episodes in.
Everyone's talking about that.
Yeah.
It's like, wow, damn.
The first episode had me hooked.
The first episode, I was like, ooh.
But then they do something in the first episode that you're like,
oh, am I going to be interested in the rest of the season?
Because what's happening in the first episode is with different,
it's a different jam than what's the rest of the show.
So I just will say be prepared for that.
Maybe don't fall in love with any of your characters or plots or whatever
because we really flip it on its head.
But it's a great premise.
They're living in this silo that is 144 stories high.
and there's different like classes and categorizations and jobs and it is sci-fi, it is crime, it is thriller.
It's my girl Rebecca Ferguson who is just bomb.com.
I don't think she was even in the first episode though.
Oh, wow.
So, yeah, it's like, it's a different, the first episode is a different story.
Okay.
She's so good in this, though.
Okay.
Because she is, she's that perfect balance of endearing and killer.
Yeah, yeah.
She's just, this is her at her finest.
It's really, really good.
Yeah, I'm going to check it out.
Yeah, I can't wait.
Next week, I'll report back.
I'll finish it, and I'll let you guys know how I feel the end of the first season is.
The one for me is hijack.
Okay, I haven't started this.
You love it.
Everybody's talking about it.
This is EGris, right?
Yes.
Awesome.
And again, what I love about it, and I don't know if Silo did the same thing, but this certainly did.
It's not a whole drop at the same time.
Yeah, I'm, Salas just all out now, but yes, they did do week to week.
They did week to week.
They did.
Which is what they should do.
And I think it's the reason why people are talking about them in general.
This is a really good, it's different.
I thought it was going to be just to be him like John McLean on a, you know, on a plane just kicking people's asses.
It's not that.
What is it?
So it's about these particular hijackers who take over the plane.
And it just is kind of like a negotiator type guy, but he's trying to figure out how,
and what's going on and how to maneuver the hijackers
kind of against each other,
but she'll still try to communicate with the rest of the plane
and then communicate with the ground
to let them know that it's being hijacked.
And there's like a ton of different moving parts
with stuff that's, it's not just on the plane, there's stuff.
It's them trying to, I think it's only like three
or four episodes in right now.
So they're trying to figure out, like the people on the ground
have figured out something's going on up there.
But at first they're like, I don't know,
because the pilot says it was just a joke.
Or not a joke.
there was miscommunication,
nothing really happened.
So it's, again, how do they communicate with the ground
because they turn the Wi-Fi off,
like all these different things.
So it's really, it's really good.
Sadie and I, the last one was great.
There's one more that's on right now.
The new one I haven't seen yet, so I'm ready.
Okay, so it's not all out.
No, no, no, it's like episode of three or four.
Okay, so I can catch up quick.
Easily.
Easily.
It's just great.
Wow, Apple's really doing it.
Killing it.
Really doing it.
Because they have, you know what it is about Apple?
you can find their stuff.
Yeah, and it's not like too much.
Yeah.
Like I watched a lot of Platonic.
I'm not watching Silo on my phone because it's too big,
but a lot of Platonic,
I watched like on the go cooking something,
like in the car five minutes earlier or whatever,
and I love that you can access their shit.
Yeah, it's the same.
So, yeah, and it's not like a huge library.
No, it's all accessible and they promote their stuff well.
Mm-hmm.
I think Alpa has maybe for the amount of the quality,
stuff that they have and what, I think they have the best stuff.
Yeah, it might be.
When it comes to how they do it, like, again, shrinking.
I know.
I mean, it's like. Severance.
Severance was, oh, severance.
Yeah, I'm thinking of.
Severance is that boy, right?
100%.
I was thinking of, what's the one?
Succession.
Succession.
Yes, severance.
What's that coming back?
I don't think the strike is helping.
Right.
From what I'm hearing, the strike is going to prohibit any.
of the actors from doing any promo so everything's yeah I read it I read the thing when I came in
because I am sick so when and and it was basically yeah you can't like I could promote the case
podcast right I can promote we can't about like inside of Katie's podcast she can't start
talking about the next season of mandolary and she's talking about like anything that she's doing
yeah so yeah it's it's it's stuff but there's no stress unless there's no yeah yeah
Yeah. Well, by the time you're watching this, there either is or isn't.
You're in the future, you know.
Right. Right.
Anyway, listen.
We got a lot. We got a lot going on.
