Starting point is 00:00:27 Visit medcan.com slash moments to get started. Thank you to Hewel for sponsoring this video. More on them in just a bit. All right, let's do this. Season 4, episode 3, 3, 2, 1. All right, guys, we just got done watching Game of Thrones. Season 4 episodes 3 and 4 good times. Thank you to proper for helping out of these highlights.

Starting point is 00:00:56 Super appreciate you. If you're on the YouTube, like, comment, subscribe when you do. Ring the bell. Ring the bell. Also give us five stars Apple or Spotify. If that's where you are listening, we would greatly appreciate it. Also give five stars the RagePod. I mean, while you're there, you know.

Starting point is 00:01:16 Okay, let's get into our questions because we have some. First ones from Jaden Rhodes. This season was the first time I saw Pedro Pascal, which I'm very happy about. And I'm glad he has become this big star because of his role in this show. I'm curious. all like his character and did you all think the scene with the white walker taking the baby that's an all-timer moment in the show for me definitely a crazy moment glad you asked that because we

Starting point is 00:01:44 just literally experienced it but when it comes to pedro pascal i'm trying to i can't remember the very first thing i ever saw him in maybe was buffy the vampire slayer and he knows one of the vampires or whatever it was but he's definitely he's a very versatile actor so i i definitely find his character very, very interesting so far. Still getting to know his character quite a bit, but I was very intrigued by his backstory, just how the mountain took out his sister, which is very tragic in itself,

Starting point is 00:02:16 and you can feel that animosity. He feels just towards the Lannisters itself and towards the city, and, of course, the mountain, and he wants vindication. So I'm, I want to see what has, happens. I'm just, I'm more pulled to see where we go with his storyline, but this was, obviously, I've never seen this before. So clearly it was not the first thing I've ever seen him in, but

Starting point is 00:02:43 I think he's just so good at whatever he does. He can do anything. And I think Tara and I just, before this, we just watched him in the second Kingsman movie. And he just does such a good job, no matter what the genre is of doing whatever needs to be done as an actor. So I think he's fantastic and that white walker moment i i had a i mean it was kind of obvious but i had a feeling that's what they were doing they were turning the babies into white walkers but still to see that that blue eyes really like struck a cord and was so freaking sad and so freaking at the same time visually like stunning to see it but uh it was wild what about you too this is how much i don't remember i literally thought they ate the babies maybe um very cool that he just touches a baby

Starting point is 00:03:29 boom done awesome um i think some of the the the the cg i like on the white walkers makes with practical effects are some of the best um it just all looks really really good and obviously pageabraskell's awesome next up all right j rush and what up jay thank you so much for being a real reject asking us question we appreciate you a question what is your take on seeing the the knight king finally and what uh what do you name your sword uh pop Padrick is used as a great squire in the show. So what's your take on seeing the Night King finally? He's talking about the White Walker.

Starting point is 00:04:10 Oh, the White Walker. Gotcha. And then what would you name your sword? I would name mine Tyrion because my sword would be quick-witted and would be very brave, courageous, as well as being stoic like Tyrion. So I'm going to go with Tyrion. I like that one. What about you?

Starting point is 00:04:31 What would you name your sword, Tyrion? Yeah. Tyrion's awesome. Sorry, I would go with that. Yeah, yeah. All right. But also about seeing the Night King, I'm assuming that's the character we keep always seeing on the main poster here whenever we pull up the show. I'm guessing that's who that is.

Starting point is 00:04:49 But it was finally cool to see an actual reveal of who is leading the charge when it comes to the Whitewalkers. I'm interested to get to know more about them. even though they are, I feel like we're going to have to, even though everyone's always trying to position themselves into taking, you know, the Iron Throne, like, White Walkers are not to be trifled with, so we're all going to have to come together for the moment to put our differences aside and, you know, fight this common enemy.

Starting point is 00:05:21 But at the same point, I'm interested to see if there's going to be dialogue between them or if it's just, whatever it is, because I have no idea. So, but that was really cool seeing that they have a leader and they're not just mindless beings or whatnot. So we'll have to see what comes from this. Yeah, I think Padrick is, um, is great. I'm going to be sad not seeing him with Tyrion, but because of that last scene that he had with Tyrion where he brings him all this stuff, you just know what kind of squire he's

Starting point is 00:05:51 going to be to Brienne because Brienne is like oathkeeper. she follows the rules. If she says she's going to do something, she does it. And I feel like Padrake is the same way. So I'm really intrigued to see what happens there. Obviously, I remember nothing. All right. Last question.

Starting point is 00:06:08 Randy Francaux, Andrew Stark, Tara Lanister. Which character would you have liked to play in the show and why? Ooh, which character would I have liked to have played in the show? That's a great question. Definitely not Tyrion, because nobody could do that. besides Peter Dinklage. You know what? I think that,

Starting point is 00:06:31 I always think that villainous roles can be the most fun to play because they're so the opposite of what we, at least what I am in real life. I feel like I'm a very kind and gentle and sensitive soul.

Starting point is 00:06:43 I feel like Joffrey would have been, he's an awful piece of shit. But I feel like that would have been a fun character to sink my teeth into at the same point. And having said that I do feel really bad for the actor who plays Joffrey that in real life he was bullied and whenever people saw him on the street. So I would not have wanted that for myself if I ever played that role.

Starting point is 00:07:04 But also, I always like playing things that are just really the opposite of what I am in real life. So maybe something like one of those type of characters in the show. What about you? I would pick Aria. Duh. We're basically the same. She's the best. She's a badass. And she's very smart and cool. Hello, Reject. It is now 2026, and I've been thinking a lot about what health actually means to me right now, and I'm sure a lot of you are, too. Last year, I made a big deal about dropping, like, 50 pounds, all because I wanted

Starting point is 00:07:36 to get those dang photos, and afterwards I was going to go back to, like, whatever lifestyle I wanted. And you know how it goes, life gets stressful. Food is my main outlet. Especially Saturday nights. When I say binge, I mean, I binge. It's a really, some people think like I'm doing that exaggerating. little, but it's not, it's bad.

Starting point is 00:07:55 Eating just crap until I fall asleep and then waking up the next day, filled with regret than trying to walk it all off over the course of two days. So instead of going more extreme this year, I'm focused on something much more sustainable. A lifestyle I can actually maintain. And a big part of when I felt my best was when I was using a lot of the stuff like the hules and everything. But it's a lot from home just for today's video.

Starting point is 00:08:20 I even grabbed the variety packs. so I can have more of these, like, different flavors. I really like this chocolate peanut butter one. So you're literally looking at my rotation. I got the Huel ready to drink. I got the bottles that I bring here at the office ready to go. I got the black addition powder. They got like a wide variety of flavors, and these are my go-toos.

Starting point is 00:08:33 And I am vegetarian and allergic to dairy, so I'm actually really happy that this is all plant-based, created by registered nutritionists, affordable per serving, and it removes decision fatigue when I'm on the go in a rush or when stress fatigue is really high. So if you're like me and you want something consistent without overthinking it, Check out Huell using the link and the QR code on screen.

Starting point is 00:08:54 You can use my code rejects for 15% off orders over $50, new customers only, minimum spend required. And yes, this is an ad. However, this is something I have genuinely come back to. So thank you, Huell, for sponsoring this video. And then we also had a question asking two Smallville reactions in 2026. I would love to do that. That's unfortunately it's not my decision to make. I don't know if we're ever going to get around.

Starting point is 00:09:19 He's already watched it like 12. It's going to say, yeah, it's not going to be a surprise for me. That would be awesome. Yeah, it'd be awesome if someone else on the channel does it. But we'll have to wait and see. We'll see. Let's just break down. So we did have the few points of episode three and four like pulled up.

Starting point is 00:09:35 So the aftermath of the Purple Wedding, we know, Sons was away. The steps thing was freaking weird between Jamie and Circee, uncomfortable. Where you're like, what I sort of even forget? forgot that that had happened, I think, because I wanted to black it out of my memory. And then Oberyn's like his opportunity that he makes that deal with Taiwan is cool. Because basically, Taiwan is saying, help me find the murderer, right? And then I'll give you a chance, I guess, at the mountain is kind of what he, like, they made that deal. And I'm like, I don't know how that's going to go down.

Starting point is 00:10:16 The DeNaris thing, that was very cool of her releasing. seeing all the slaves. I liked that. That was probably like one of my favorite parts, especially her speech. I thought she gave a really great speech in that episode. When she tells them, like, they're all behind me. They're free.

Starting point is 00:10:34 I was like, hell yeah, girl, let's get at it. Yeah, what do you think? Do you think John Snow is going to win against Crasters, like when he gets there? Do we think the night watch? There's only like seven of them. It's not that I don't think he, can't win because we know that you don't underestimate John Snow.

Starting point is 00:10:53 I'm just really worried about the guy that works with Bolton. I know. Because he'll, he could kill him, actually. Backstab them. So that's, that's my big,

Starting point is 00:11:03 and that guy is also not, I keep forgetting about him. That guy's also not to be trifled with. So I'm really worried about him. And we saw he already took out Jamie Lannister's hand. We saw how ruthless and cunning that guy is. So I'm really worried about him. I do agree with you.

Starting point is 00:11:17 That was an awesome moment with DeNaris. and then sending she she kept making arguments about why she can't send any of the you know with gray worm and then with sir beriston is that he says yeah and then and then with also with jora yeah yeah you go out there that's fine yeah and then but i love i love that vindicating speech that she did give everyone to is very cathartic as well because you know she has been a slave and she knows what it's like so i love that once again she rules from a place of respect and from freedom rather than a place from from fear and I just think she is a terrific leader in that aspect and that's why I really do want to see her get to the to the iron throne I think she will rule with compassion and empathy and people want to be in a kingdom with her as as the lead rather than like a Joffrey or a Stannis or someone like that so I think she is such a badass character I'm I'm also just

Starting point is 00:12:16 curious to see what's going to continue to happen because we didn't really see the dragons at all in the last two episodes we didn't really get to see a ton of denares was only like that's the that's the tough part to do now that we've really turned this into such an ensemble there's so many characters you have to really pick and choose your battles i can imagine in the writers room who do we want to like give our screen time to in this moment in the scene this moment in this scene continuous yeah so that that's like the the real tough part but um great episodes and then the whole thing thing that happened with Little Finger Lord Baylish and with is it Lady Oletta is that her name? Lady Tyrell.

Starting point is 00:12:53 Yeah, okay. The grandmother, Tyrell. That was, I had, I mean, there were so many different suspects you could go with who poisoned Joffrey, but so intriguing. That's what happened. But it makes sense to when it comes to Baylish because his plan was to marry Sonsa from the beginning. And he found out that Sir Loris was going to do it.

Starting point is 00:13:14 And then he found out that, what's his name, that Tyrion was married her. So it's like his whole plan got ruined from this. And now he is such a cunning fellow himself. And he always has a backdoor plan. So now he aligned himself with the Tyrells. And once now I almost want to go back like on YouTube and just watch that scene between Tywin and Lady Tyrell. So fascinating that she came up with a backdoor plan like this too, like to poison. Joffrey at the wedding.

Starting point is 00:13:46 Ruthless. So ruthless. She's awesome, though. Yeah, I think that my favorite scene was when Lady Marjorie goes in to talk to Tom and because Lady Tyrell actually gives her the talk saying, hey, listen, this is how I got my husband without saying this is what you should do. Because it is very true what she said to her. Circe will be in his ear saying the worst things ever.

Starting point is 00:14:12 and Tomon is so susceptible to that that he would just listen to his mom. So we have to get Marjorie in there first. And I thought that she was like going to go in and maybe like try to juice it. Like I don't know. I thought, but then you look at him. You're like he's so young. So I really like that she's like, do you mind if I come back in and have a conversation with you again?

Starting point is 00:14:35 Like she's got to warn this kid up, which I really, really like small steps at a time. because once Tomon like basically learns to trust Marjorie and has these secret, private, like intimate conversations with her, it's really going to get him on the side of her versus like mom, which I'm very much looking forward to. Yeah. Because Circe's cuckoo fricking bananas. Um, I hope Tarian makes it out. Yeah, I'm worried.

Starting point is 00:15:02 Uh, I hope Lady Brianna Padraq find Sonsa, although I know she's safe right now with little finger. like that's fine i'm not worried about her but um yeah we'll see i love these episodes love you guys please leave all the likes all the comments obviously subscribe do all the stuff and we will see you on the next one
