Starting point is 00:00:56 Conditions apply. Scotia Beck You're richer than you think Thank you to Hewle for sponsoring this video More on them in just a bit Got I found it All right ladies

Starting point is 00:01:15 gentlemen We just watched the first three episodes of GenV Season dose Season dose Here we are Here we are want to thank prep for writing down these highlights this show is a pain in the buttox to get up

Starting point is 00:01:31 and as many of you have probably heard there's some channels much bigger than us who have actually been talking about how youtube's demonetization age restriction policies i've just been a i'd up like a mofo it they don't make a lot of sense and yes this channel has definitely been subject to that as of late and so hopefully we've been able to bypass the artificial intelligence All right. Well, I'll go to, let's go to John first, John. So, you know, we had season one, and then they had to pivot a little bit because of the passing. And now they have had this Andre element. I forgot the character's name for a second. Andre element. I always just want to call him chance, too. So I was like, what is it? Andre, the character, implemented here. How are you feeling about the direction that they've taken so far? here, um, even with an obstacle they've had to overcome. Yeah, I like the way generally in the

Starting point is 00:02:31 writing they, at least to me, feel like they tend to meet things head on and they don't tend to dawdle with a lot of developments and stuff like that. And while obviously I, I understand, you know, that I think they've risen to this occasion with a lot of grace, I would say. And yeah, having Andre as this presence that is constantly, not constantly even, but just like appropriately, consistently touched upon as this sort of spiritual driving force for the season and also remembering him in this very sort of just heroic light is both a lovely tribute to chance per domo but also yeah i think it's something that allows your mind to fill in the blanks with what actually happened there you can kind of paint the picture in your mind's eye as to how the physical situation went down

Starting point is 00:03:21 but I do appreciate the sort of slingshot and the sense of, like, vital urgency that his loss has brought our main remaining characters and whatnot. So I feel like they've done a nice job of, you know, meeting our super unfortunate circumstance and utilizing it dramatically in a way that doesn't feel ghoulish. Yeah. Because it could, you know, like, obviously it's better

Starting point is 00:03:46 to acknowledge it in some fashion, but, you know, you also have to be conscientious as to how you do that. And I think they have, for the most part, been conscientious about that. And it's interesting to then watch his father take on a bigger role. You know, it makes me really curious as to what changes they had to make. But, yeah, I think they've done a good job with that so far. Yeah, the changes feel so natural. It doesn't feel like they definitely had an original plan and they had to pivot.

Starting point is 00:04:10 You know, like it seems like they have the – I feel like these three episodes have worn its heart on its sleeve a lot more while keeping the political motivations and such. And for Koi, you know, you didn't have an opportunity to rewatch the first season, but you are a big comic fan. And this season has remained politically charged. As always, how are you feeling with its commentary so far? I was going to say, when you were speaking to the pivot, they had to do, you know, losing chance and making the Andre character, this hero that's sacrificed himself and making that on the forefront, the ability of this writing team to really have heart while being so.

Starting point is 00:04:49 brutal is really like a special balance because it doesn't feel like they're pandering to the actor's loss it feels like it's a very heartfelt memorial to him but it doesn't feel like it's also ghoulish and i and i feel like that's part of what the political commentary feels like this season um that balance of heart but we live in a dark world and the boys almost feels uh a little more aggressive like this show is obviously aggressive it's in the boys universe but the political overtones feel like they're sympathetic to the plight of the leads in this show a little more

Starting point is 00:05:27 like there's a little you know this is a less mean yeah that yeah like I'm trying to find a way to phrase that it's not as me it's it's a mean show that isn't as angry at its protagonists because I feel like the boys is like punching the boys and the seven and everyone's just like ah

Starting point is 00:05:44 whereas this show this season feels like they're going through it and it empathizes with what they're going through, especially politically and especially with chances passing. And I think that's a really hard line to walk. I've really enjoyed its ability to satirize both sides of the political spectrum while still being very clear about where it stands politically. Like it doesn't think one side is infallible while the other is wrong. It thinks one side is evil and the other side has problems. And I really, I really appreciate that. Like, and it's a really hard line to walk and I'm enjoying it. Yeah, because definitely makes fun of both sides. Yeah. While still acknowledging, like, I think it's a very dangerous

Starting point is 00:06:31 world we're in, in our world, wherein, as soon as you say, um, words like by partisan or centrist, you are immediately judged as or more harshly as people that align politically. pick aside and I don't think this show is the show very clearly has picked aside but it's not at the cost of picking a side pretending the side it's on is clean and and that is something that I'm navigating as a human being that is trying to be more informed that doesn't think that I don't think either political party is in a good place and I don't want that to then become people thinking I'm apathetic and it's a hard thing to do. So I'm really impressed with that. Yeah. I mean, it's really easy to... Dancing a line. It's really easy to like be against the side and then become tribalistic about the side you're on.

Starting point is 00:07:25 Right. And this show is not presenting itself in a... It's like it has a side, but it's not feeling like tribalism at the same time. It's not blind, which is really hard to do. No, and I think to your other point about its empathy, I think is because they're they're allowing

Starting point is 00:07:43 especially this one I feel like they feel more like children at least I mean like the perspective like you they've really shined a light like they're still young they're still coming in yeah you know there's still people who have been they they were forced into this position

Starting point is 00:08:00 they were drugged and then you're watching to take the starlight element and the star lighters which was in her first season and the boys was about defying you know the conforming to what the media

Starting point is 00:08:15 manipulation was and to be her own person then you're seeing like how these kids in college are trying to actually be heroes you know

Starting point is 00:08:27 and to honor that through the passing of Andre and show that Andre was a hero we have to do the right thing and be heroes and like this is a very like this ending notice

Starting point is 00:08:39 such an aggressive way to like drive that home that we're and even in with you know andre's father and Marie and the crowd and like no shit no that's what are you doing this is like you're gonna get us killed right now um but then proven like no this is what a real number one hero would do they wouldn't be doing this for the brownie points they wouldn't be doing this for the ranking selling out to the stupid speech yeah they'd be actually uh wanting to do the right thing and even if that means putting a target on their back it is a really because we know the world of the boys so well and I think they've done

Starting point is 00:09:15 so I think like them doing that it is make it actually is like really scary it's very different because you feel like you're connecting to the youthful side of and that sometimes is fear and alienation and uncertainty whereas with the boys they're all grown so you're like all right what are we gonna do next

Starting point is 00:09:33 we'll get to figure it out like there's a little bit more of an assertiveness yeah and I really like that this season like the new Jordan Peterson character and certain characters that are so sure of themselves it makes that vulnerability and naivete

Starting point is 00:09:47 sing even more because these our characters, our leads are constantly having to pivot and all the adults in the room are like, this is the way it is. Yeah. Well, I think the boys is also very like testosterone. Yeah. You know, it's called the boys. It is.

Starting point is 00:10:04 Even though there's some like strong female characters. That, that, this one is masculine energy. Yeah, it is a very, like, masculine-driven show. And John, earlier, while we were watching this, you said something about, like, how the Kate's unfolding and how you feel like we're going to be dissecting. What, did you want to elaborate a little bit more on how you've been feeling about Kate? Yeah, I just got this inkling. It's my hope, I suppose, that, yeah, you know, she's in this position where it's both easy to be like, you've been super messed up.

Starting point is 00:10:36 and like the way you frequently kind of expect people to just water under the bridge. Some of that shit is like a little convoluted in the right way, in context. But with the way things have been progressing and the sort of desperate, it's weird, like watching she's clearly more towards this side of the spectrum that is indoctrinated toward Homelander

Starting point is 00:11:00 and obviously she and Sam have this internship with Vought and whatnot, but I don't know, like the further she goes. the more I get the feeling she's going to become this sort of like chaotic I don't I don't know if I'm using the spectrum right but you know like a chaotic neutral character who finally learns not to be under the thumb of either ideology and to not be wielded like finally recognizing all the ways that she's been wielded by people and maybe breaking free from that and carving her own path and you know not that that's always going to be copacetic to the rest of our leads but she's become becoming increasingly potentially fascinating to me and I think that especially these notes here and with the development at the end of this episode, the acknowledgement from Jordan, yeah,

Starting point is 00:11:44 it just makes me anticipate like some good drama hopefully off that character, some good nuances and whatnot because she is quite tragic despite some of the villainy she's been either directly responsible for or, you know,

Starting point is 00:12:00 vicariously responsible for. You know, and I'm glad and I'm, I shouldn't be surprised because this writing is often nuanced, but I'm really impressed that Sam and Kate didn't just become villains. Because I really was afraid when they showed up in the boys as villains and that's from the perspective of the boys.

Starting point is 00:12:16 They would have just appeared. You wouldn't have any association with them. It was great because it felt like a comic where you're like, I read the other one so I know who they are. But if you had it, you just have that like, we're bad guys. And I'm glad that now that we're back to the show, they're really not letting Sam just break and become, his powers are so strong.

Starting point is 00:12:33 It'd be such an easy villain. And I like that they manipulated me into fearing that They might let that go that way, and they're not. Yeah, I think they've been really intimate, like, on the internal of who they are as just the human being behind them. And the way they've even stipulate, what is that guy who you're obsessed with? Oh, I ban, I think he's the best new edition of show. Oh, Jordan Peterson. Is his name?

Starting point is 00:12:54 Mike Flanagan? They called him Dr. Gold, when she saw him in the picture. We'll just call him that for the sake of the review. Is that his name on the current? Yeah, well, it's gone that for the sake of the review. Dr. Gold for now. Dr. Gold, the guy from the Mike Flanagan world.

Starting point is 00:13:06 who's so good oh you still haven't seen the midnight monologues I gotta see it I want to say it is that like a nickname people have been is that a Nickelodeon show

Starting point is 00:13:16 I wish I could take that I've heard it called that I've heard it called that a couple of times he's got some amazing monologues Haymish Linklater I think is the actor's name you see if I can confirm

Starting point is 00:13:26 he's incredible he's so he's so fun to watch here did he's the person I think his name is Hamish Linklater he is incredible in that show but the way how

Starting point is 00:13:34 while you're looking at that up The way how he specifically highlights that people are using, your worth is based off of your powers. And then even when Sam, when she goes to confront Sam, or not goes to confront Sam, but she meets with Sam in the dorm, Sam is just only after her for her use of the powers. And it just has you like drawing that linkage of everything.

Starting point is 00:13:57 Everything comes back to the powers when I really feel like she was actually trying to, in her own way, she is trying to help them. And then she felt betrayed by them. They left her to die. And I like the complexity of that because it's like of two minds. Oh, at least when I'm watching it of. Oh, yeah. You know, yes, Kate did do a lot of messed up stuff, but she's trying to help.

Starting point is 00:14:19 So I actually do get why she feels like she's been totally betrayed because like while we're watching it, you were even going like, well, we did all this messed up stuff. Kate, with all the manipulation and everything. And I like that this show creates an actual debate as an audience member of like, well, are they in the right for letting her die? Yeah. you know yeah and i mean that's that's a situation where i think it's it's not good there's no good or bad value but it is interesting to let in that moment you watch them contemplate like we should do something right we should and their hesitation passes for long enough that they're like

Starting point is 00:14:50 well i don't know now you know i guess we got to go and it's like it's convincingly messy in that moment but yeah no i agree and i i think when you're out of the moment of the immediacy of the show it is kind of that's again that's that's the stuff that contributes that feeling of yeah from her perspective and from what we see of her when she's not with them for her motivations to be clear to them it is all the more tragic because you can sense that deep deep down she just wants to do right by them and to stop hurting yeah i mean all these characters are outcasts who have not been truly loved and i and i would say like andre was the only one who actually had a decent relationship with this even though there was like functional you know even there's dysfunctional there were problems he he admired his dad you know whereas everyone else has got like a really messed up dynamic with their with their parents and speaking of which um the situation memory are our main character here coy what did you think about that final monologue scene that she actually had there man uh that actress she is i mean watching

Starting point is 00:15:58 the first season i was like okay this is going to be someone that's going to have an incredible career um but that i think was the oh this is why they're the lead scene like that was such a powerful performance uh i thought the immediate bond with her aunt was really special i you know i i i i delicately i have some friends that were born addicted to things because of choices their parents made and i am really enjoying the commentary on addiction and the parents taking a drug And that being kind of processed in this character. Like Marie is processing lineage trauma and processing, like, you know, being injected with this thing that wasn't a choice of hers and, like, processing all these things that I don't see a lot of media address.

Starting point is 00:16:51 So, yeah, I think the spicy topic of, you know, the trans-tastic and the things that we're addressing for the first time. Like, we don't see, not for the first time ever, but we don't see trans characters in superheroes. content. We don't see certain things done in TV, but I think there's a really beautiful undercurrent of Marie of people born into addiction, people born into having chemical dependency, people born into things that were outside of their control. And I don't know if I'm reading too much, but I really like felt that in the scene with her aunt because, you know, the aunt had lost her family in, you know, Marie's mom and dad dying and had regained some of that family in her sister. But she's been looking for her sister since we met her on the show.

Starting point is 00:17:34 so it's this whole family was destroyed by a drug moment in the metaphor and um it just speaks to me as as someone that has people that have been in those environments and and uh i feel like we don't see a lot of that that isn't as judged like when you see um crack baby in a in a piece of art it's not ever with reverence or respect to the baby and i'm like yo that baby didn't do anything wrong so i have a lot of respect for the show uh for always surprising me with its new to the point of like having something that's that um layered be respectful yeah reject nation at the start of this year i was sitting over 20% body fat 218 pounds i was end of january as of a couple weeks ago finally took the photos i've been talking about it all year i completed the mission six pack abs came in 8% body fat 170 pounds you can check out all the transformations on instagram but that's not why i'm here today i'm here today to tell you that a big Part of how I accomplished that journey was about staying consistent with my nutrition. And the best way to do this is by keeping things simple like having a Huell Black Edition ready to drink a complete meal in a bottle.

Starting point is 00:18:45 Have these a couple times a week. That first crack. It's always amazing. It's a full meal in a bottle packed with 40 grams of protein. 27 vitamins and minerals, slow release carbs, low sugar, no prep, no cleanup. Just shake it and go. I've got a fridge full of these. We've got three fridges and they're all full of them.

Starting point is 00:19:02 I'd like to grab them on shoot days, gym days, or I'm just too damn tired to cook, which is an often Greg thing. But more importantly, they taste good. Chocolate and vanilla, classics are my go-toes. Smooth taste like actual milkshake. But they got a whole bunch of other flavors you can catch on their website. Plus, it's under three bucks a meal, which has helped my gains and my budget.

Starting point is 00:19:48 hey I admire your spirit and all that what action you're taking actually probably isn't going to help in fact it might get some innocent people hurt real bad in a way that you could be trading for much more effective action which, you know, is not a direct advocacy for, like, violent action, but it's, like, just about there.

Starting point is 00:20:07 It's also, like, if the same punishment is coming. Like, if you're risking your life, risk your life for more. Yeah, exactly. And I agree, and I think that's something that's also terrifyingly topical. Yeah, a lot of great stuff here. Hamish Linklater, indeed, Cipher is the character. I'm trying to figure out. I'm trying to figure out who the aunt was because that performer, she is great,

Starting point is 00:20:28 and I know she's been in stuff. Yeah, I love the conflict in there. because you think she might just be like some uptight bitch or something. Yeah, totally. And then you're like, I see the fear, the distance, but also the longing.

Starting point is 00:20:40 Like, it would be complicated. It would be complex. It's such a good performance because the dialogue is saying one thing and her emotionality is saying the other. And then some of the dialogue will say what she's acting. Yeah. Well,

Starting point is 00:20:50 in that last scene when Maria is, you know, unloading on her, all she, she's just listening. And she's giving without being like, you know, over the top and,

Starting point is 00:21:01 and hammy. she's giving a lot in that moment and yeah i thought that whole scene was really lovely and i do appreciate you mentioned these episodes being or feeling skewing more intimate just like more little nuanced moments of expression and i feel like that has been a nicely consistent thing across these episodes that's the monster of two of her arc the i i love the irony i like pointed out for a brief second when we were watching it when we were watching it is how i don't remember what episode it was it was something somewhere in the first season we're like it was the first time you meet all the parents and she was saying how she killed her parents and kate was the one being like no you're

Starting point is 00:21:42 not responsible like it's your parents fault why they died yeah and that's something that she has not been able to take ownership of and the irony of how they were letting kate die and kate's viewed as the villain to them and then kate and now she is there pretty much giving the monologue that Kate was saying she should embrace this entire time. Yeah. Showing that strength and showing the worthiness of that. And, oh, I love the reveal, too, that their parents actually had good intentions about having her. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:22:13 Because everyone's always like, yeah, we've got to make like a moneymaker here, you know. We just want to have a baby at all. Yeah. We just want to have a baby for the profit. And they were just trying to, they couldn't conceive. And it makes you kind of wonder the lineage of, like, were they always having trouble conceiving? you know and that was the other thing i mean about respecting the situation like they don't even villainize the parents in that parallel of that thing i'm reading into like yeah i think it's

Starting point is 00:22:37 really beautiful that that it really is a a victimless crime because even the parents that died like that she didn't mean to marie's circumstantial yeah exactly and is that the implication there that they like couldn't conceive and so through this procedure they took their genetic material added the add in v to keep compound v factor and then that's what brought it all together and that led to them being able to like naturally conceive her sister that's what I gathered is like after they had one kid they were able to have one

Starting point is 00:23:05 naturally and that's that miracle baby jab yeah yeah very I mean I'm uh I'm always impressed the writing uh also acting wise like both the the Jordan actors uh really really viving with them the season we gave marringer flowers but I think all the leads are really crushing it

Starting point is 00:23:21 the girl plays cricket um I'm Judith Scott Judith Scott especially the girl plays cricket like they what a what a flip they've done with her character who was all about like social media attention now she's out yeah Jordan

Starting point is 00:23:35 wanted to be number one now they're out yeah the carrying over it's cool what they've done like a lot of times with these season two is often I find that they'll go let's get new characters in here yeah really hone in on them and now they're like let's just further explore

Starting point is 00:23:50 our main characters that's why they're our main characters yeah we don't need to distract from And then what's developed that. But they have brought in new characters that are interested. I think Dog Knott's a cool character. Yeah, I want to see more Zach. We didn't actually really talk about his performance. Hamish Slinklater.

Starting point is 00:24:08 Hamish Slinklater. Man, what a joy that guy is. Every time he's on street. I'm like, he, he, he, he. Oh, my God. I'm sorry, I've just figured out where I know her from. She's in Dexter for like four or five episodes in season two. So you just saw her.

Starting point is 00:24:23 When they get the new chief and then LaGerta, there's there's yeah it blew my mind it's attached to a minor but mind blowing to yeah um but she's been in tons of stuff uh but yes yeah continuing i mean i like how because there's always someone in the lead and they we had a great dean from last last go around so to do this version where every bit of his humanity is is calculated and performative uh almost like Every single line just seems like calculated and how he does it. But also not calculated in like a stiff way. It's like the reactive buttons of like the ultimate sense of control where you even still don't know what his powers are.

Starting point is 00:25:09 We don't know. Does he even have powers? Is he just brilliantly? Yeah, 4D Chessified. For him to be a doctor and like there's such a great mystery around him. Usually the doctors are just doctors. They're not, they don't actually have powers. Not even, uh, Dean Chetty had powers.

Starting point is 00:25:23 So, like, this guy very well could have built in some immunity to himself where he's not able to be affected by, you know, like when Kate had her powers and stuff, he's because he is the doctor. But I love how every part of him just feels like a true sociopath, where every response is a way to manipulate in a way that doesn't feel like cheeky. Yeah. You know, he's very, he does seem like more of an actual. villainous Magneto. It's so, you know, but he's got to have powers somewhere, because he's so anti-human. Yeah. So I imagine he's a

Starting point is 00:26:01 soup. I love the slow reveal of it, though. I love that we're three episodes that we have no idea what you does. We don't really know what he actually does. His power is acting. And that fascinated, like that was a great sequence because that's such a great commentary on master races and any culture that is veering toward the foisting of a master race

Starting point is 00:26:17 of some kind is, yeah, it all becomes like the second you lose any of those traits, they're going to toss you on the pile, no matter what they promised you and uh yeah like he's got this great blend of like really fun odd mannerisms that feel at a breath both genuine but also like he is performing differently for everybody and like when he talks to kate toward the end when he's so just kind of like mellow and detached like you almost get the sense that that's him yeah well is this sort of blank i loved his line about uh self-harm that's very human of yeah yeah so dismissive yeah just

Starting point is 00:26:53 the superior yeah it's and so it kind of makes you think that there might be that that element where perhaps they will have some good from being under his tutelage she might be able to the same same thing with um you know we keep calling her cricket uh that sounds like a emma thank you name emma with emma and marie of two people who have often had to harm themselves in order to use their powers perhaps through the tutelage they might be able to not have to resort to that at all but you know clearly there's got to be something it's also a cool way to see powers level up like it's you know marie is going to level up her powers i assume because of that line of dialogue but what a fun thing to see her whatever it's going to manifest as or whatever

Starting point is 00:27:38 level up because you know sequel seasons need to grow and sure what a cool way to have the villain be your educator like it feels very snape when we thought snape was the bad guy like to have the dark protection be from like this villain but it grows the hero i think it's really fun to play with like moral shades of gray and i think what we just had jordan do at the very end here like what a great cliffhanger of that morally like you you did go back to the school you did you know you were willing to play this facade but up until a point and you just found your line and what london's doing the actress london thor uh is doing as jordan is so great because you know we see the the the male jordan represent certain things but whenever there's strength it's her yeah and and you

Starting point is 00:28:17 pointed that out but i was trying to figure out what the the the core was and and london's doing like this really great sometimes subtle sometimes very on the forefront just strength work uh and i think it's really great and i want to see more of uh of zax uh you mentioned uh i've heard his character name but that that the wolverine character is a blast dog not dog nod yeah yeah dog um well before we exit out of here is there anything you guys are not uh driving with or not enjoying as much or anything at all oh this pacing's a little uh at times um what's the what's it it's not meandering uh it's trying sometimes the pacing is a little like okay we were just going super fast and then we've skidded to a halt and i think i i at points i'm like a little whiplashy from

Starting point is 00:29:02 like where we are and now we're here and then i'm like okay is is it slower pace or were we just so kinetic that this feels off so i've just noticed the pacing a couple times in this first three episodes that like i don't think the show is poorly paced overall but i think there are moments of poor pacing uh that have that have kind of taken me out my suspension of disbelief has been removed a couple times i just noticed like oh shiny and that that is new uh i don't know where i don't have a moment but i definitely was aware of like you know i could eat yeah i'd agree i actually would agree on that i think that might have been what was sort of it's not the word's not missing um but yeah i i guess when i compare it to the first season i really felt like by the end of the third

Starting point is 00:29:44 episode of the last season it was like wow what uh we've been building building building and and and right Now, I mean, they're technically doing that still, but I guess the direction is not as clear to me yet, but that's not really a criticism. That's what I mean. Like, mine isn't a big. It's just a little asterisk. Yeah. And on the heels of something like a peacemaker season two, which like, to me, takes a minute to like clarify to you like, oh, this is where we're headed. And, you know, this kind of has a similar thing.

Starting point is 00:30:11 It's a little more momentous at the outset because of what you have happening in between the seasons off screen. but yeah there is that sort of like oh i kind of see where we're headed now and thankfully at the end of these three episodes i feel relatively locked into what the major kind of action of the season is headed toward perhaps but uh yeah it's mostly if i had gripes it's mostly like little editing things or i don't know like they're little like nitpicks and stuff like oh okay so how did like starlight come find you and and that sequence was neat but at the same time i was sort of feeling like the oh yeah we gotta have somebody from the boys in the episode we gotta have a cameo

Starting point is 00:30:49 and it makes the most sense to have Starlight obviously and it's just nice to see Catherine Moriarty but that didn't feel like the most natural sequence to have in a you know writing fluidity standpoint I'm kind of wondering about the Sam stuff are we just going to like

Starting point is 00:31:06 go backwards but then he was bonding that's what I was saying I think we're getting a really interesting thing where we assume something of Sam and I think they're going to subvert us I hope so I hope so Anyway guys We got a few more episodes of the boy

Starting point is 00:31:21 Not the boys Gen V A few more weeks of Gen V Now weekly not a chunk Yeah Yeah I don't know why Amazon does that I don't Here's a movie And so Amazon always does right

Starting point is 00:31:33 You usually do like the three episode Than one a week And then one one one I'd rather one one one than get it all at once though Always I think it allows conversation like this It's just very consistently Like why don't you just make one long Yeah.

Starting point is 00:31:44 What if you just did a two-hour premiere? I guess it hooks you into committing. I guess, yeah. Next time on. It does provide, yeah, like the, here's a, yeah, three-episode mission statement, and that's a substantial amount for you to get your, you know, questionables out. And then if you're going to continue, then obviously by this point you're going to do it. It makes you want to finish it because you've already committed.

Starting point is 00:32:06 Or they could just put out the whole season of a horror theme show, not in October and just dump it at once and I don't have a time on Halloween for no reason whatsoever for the first. TV and a Marvel show to come out with Marvel zombies in September. They could do that instead. I don't know why. If it was weekly, it would literally undone Halloween but couldn't do that. No. It's impossible. We don't have the infrastructure. We have the same and service to ignore.

Starting point is 00:32:29 Well, thank you guys for being here. Thanks, Koi and John. We'll see you guys from next week's episode. Don't forget to subscribe and leave a like. Peace. Woo!
