How's it going this evening? 00;01;47;17 - 00;01;56;13 Speaker 3 Very well, thank you. We just had a great time on the VIP tour at Disneyland yesterday, and I got to hang with our fellow Tuners, Sam and her family. 00;01;56;24 - 00;01;58;15 Speaker 2 Oh, that sounds a lot of fun. 00;01;58;16 - 00;02;00;02 Speaker 3 Yeah, it really was. Yeah. 00;02;00;16 - 00;02;03;05 Speaker 2 Next, we've got Pete. Pete? 00;02;03;16 - 00;02;05;11 Speaker 4 Did I just say something before I was on the air? Oops. 00;02;05;15 - 00;02;06;03 Speaker 3 No, you're fine. 00;02;06;05 - 00;02;06;13 Speaker 5 No. 00;02;08;22 - 00;02;11;06 Speaker 4 Hey, I was not at Disneyland. 00;02;11;06 - 00;02;13;11 Speaker 2 But, yeah, neither was I. Yeah. 00;02;14;10 - 00;02;24;03 Speaker 4 They don't like. We're going to talk about that later tonight. So if people want to come back in an hour and talk about and hear about Disneyland, that's us. That's a separate show, though. 00;02;24;11 - 00;02;32;00 Speaker 2 And it's going to be a separate show. And we have got the other person on that tour, Sam Sams, where it was my invitation. 00;02;32;27 - 00;02;33;08 Speaker 5 It got. 00;02;33;08 - 00;02;33;26 Speaker 1 Lost in the. 00;02;33;26 - 00;02;35;29 Speaker 5 Mail and the check. 00;02;35;29 - 00;02;40;04 Speaker 1 Is in the mail or actually coming maybe by wire transfer. 00;02;41;17 - 00;02;42;11 Speaker 5 Carrier pigeon. 00;02;45;09 - 00;03;06;13 Speaker 1 No, I am I am great tonight, you guys. I'm wearing my Star Wars Galaxy Edge t shirt. This is from when Galaxy's Edge first opened in 2019 and I wore it in honor of talking about Obi Wan tonight, but also in honor of the fact that Jeana and I finally met in person for the first time and spent the entire day together yesterday in Disneyland. 00;03;06;24 - 00;03;13;28 Speaker 1 We spent lots of time at Galaxy's Edge, but we toured Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure. That was really fun. Day. 00;03;14;24 - 00;03;20;17 Speaker 2 Yeah, sounds like it. We've got Steve with us tonight. Yeah. Guys, let us know if you are here and if you're watching. 00;03;20;29 - 00;03;25;01 Speaker 1 Hey, Steve, and I'll toast my Topo Chico. So to. 00;03;25;03 - 00;03;25;14 Speaker 3 Me. 00;03;26;27 - 00;03;30;06 Speaker 1 This is, this is the nonalcoholic version, but I'm kind of obsessed with. 00;03;30;17 - 00;03;31;05 Speaker 3 It, so. Good. 00;03;31;18 - 00;03;32;20 Speaker 2 Well, don't tell me yet. 00;03;32;24 - 00;03;34;02 Speaker 1 Family advertise. 00;03;35;07 - 00;03;40;03 Speaker 2 Because we've got Disney Plus News, and that's Sam. Tonight. 00;03;41;08 - 00;03;57;16 Speaker 1 It's time for the Disney Plus News. I have to always channel Kate when I do the Disney Plus News, since she does it so well. We have a lot of news tonight. A lot of it is Star Wars related. But I'll start with the fact that Disney's announced Disney Plus Day. It's going to be this fall, September eight. 00;03;57;22 - 00;04;16;00 Speaker 1 In the past, this has been a day of many announcements about the service and upcoming shows also premiering on September eight. So on Disney Plus Day will be the live action Pinocchio. And so this is going to star Tom Hanks, the Sapelo, and it released they released a trailer of this movie today. I haven't watched it, but I'm sure it's pretty good. 00;04;16;24 - 00;04;32;02 Speaker 2 It looks like they're going to go and they advertise it as from the people that brought you the live action beauty and the beast and the live action Lion King. So I'm feeling it's going to go very close to the original story. Matter of fact, I mean, the Jiminy Cricket in the original movie, the original movie. Yes. Yeah. 00;04;32;02 - 00;04;41;18 Speaker 2 Oh, yeah. Sorry. Disney did nothing to the original story, but it's going to go very close to the original movie. And I will say looks like Japan. So, you know, so. 00;04;41;18 - 00;04;41;25 Speaker 3 Yes. 00;04;42;22 - 00;04;48;20 Speaker 1 And then in more news, Willow, if you all remember that movie from, I don't know, the eighties and nineties, I think the. 00;04;48;20 - 00;04;49;24 Speaker 4 Eighties. 00;04;50;08 - 00;04;58;24 Speaker 1 And so the New Willow, it's a continuation of the first movie will premiere on November 30th. And the trailer for this movie also dropped this week. 00;04;59;01 - 00;04;59;28 Speaker 2 It's the series. 00;04;59;28 - 00;05;02;17 Speaker 4 Is going to say it's Oh, sorry, seriously? 00;05;02;18 - 00;05;39;22 Speaker 1 Oh, it's a TV series. I didn't realize that thing. Yeah. And then we have tons of Star Wars news because the Star Wars convention was this past weekend in Anaheim. And there were so many announcements, the first of which is the series and or is going to premiere August 31st and it also had a trailer release Star Wars Tales of the Jedi, which is a series of shorts about Asoka Tano and Count Duku is going to appear on Disney plus this fall and Asoka and Duku will be featured in three episodes each with at least one featuring the return of Kwai Duncan voiced by Liam Neeson. 00;05;39;25 - 00;06;06;13 Speaker 1 Yes, this is a big deal. All right. In other news, Amanda Laurie in season three is coming in February of 2023 star Wars Visions, the animated shorts that tell the tales of Jedi in the style of various anime movies which we watched the previous season of. It's going to have season two starting next spring. And Disney also announced that Star Wars Young Jedi Adventures will be coming to Disney Plus and Disney Jr next year. 00;06;06;13 - 00;06;12;10 Speaker 1 It's going to be set during the High Republic era and I'll follow younglings on their journeys to become a full Jedi. 00;06;12;13 - 00;06;14;12 Speaker 2 Spoiler alert Some of them won't make it. 00;06;14;18 - 00;06;17;25 Speaker 5 Oh, well, some of. 00;06;17;25 - 00;06;20;13 Speaker 1 Them may go the way of the order. 66. 00;06;20;20 - 00;06;25;07 Speaker 2 But they've got to start the indoctrination early going on. Well, Junior on this. 00;06;25;14 - 00;06;29;21 Speaker 4 So so hi republic is like hundreds of hundreds. 00;06;29;21 - 00;06;31;08 Speaker 3 Of years OK for these ones are good. 00;06;31;08 - 00;06;54;22 Speaker 1 OK, ok so now order 66 things. Yeah OK. Unless they live really long. OK, so next is a tease. Last week, Star Wars Skeleton Crew featuring Jude Law is in development and is going to come to the service in 2023 John Watson Chris board from Spider-Man homecoming are working on that series and according to Jon Favreau the show is as much for kids as Clone Wars. 00;06;55;22 - 00;06;57;02 Speaker 2 The Clone Wars for Kids. 00;06;57;04 - 00;06;58;25 Speaker 3 Oh, so it does nothing for kids. 00;06;58;29 - 00;07;19;09 Speaker 1 Not for kids. OK, that's good to know. Yeah. All right. And finally, it's just been announced that episode three of Obi-Wan Kenobi will be released tomorrow, June 1st instead of on Friday. All subsequent episodes will also be released on Wednesdays. So these first two episodes were released last Friday. Now they're switching starting this week to Wednesday. Yay for. 00;07;19;09 - 00;07;19;18 Speaker 3 Me. 00;07;19;27 - 00;07;26;11 Speaker 2 What it tells me, which tells me they probably wanted to bump it back that Friday to get a big boost for the first day to watch it. 00;07;26;18 - 00;07;28;10 Speaker 1 Yes. Well, and also and. 00;07;28;11 - 00;07;28;20 Speaker 2 Yeah. 00;07;28;24 - 00;07;46;19 Speaker 1 It probably was also to coincide with the Star Wars celebration, celebration and I am. Yeah. The convention. And I'm and I will say, Gina and I saw definitely a lot of people who had gone to the convention over part of the week and then on Monday came to Disneyland. 00;07;46;24 - 00;07;47;11 Speaker 4 I would bet. 00;07;47;26 - 00;07;48;09 Speaker 3 Yeah. 00;07;48;12 - 00;08;10;26 Speaker 4 So one of the thing, you know, obviously we're going to talk about Obi Wan, but in the news, Disney did come out and say that it the Obi Wan premiere had the highest viewership, first week viewership of any any Disney plus show, not just Disney plus Star Wars show, any Disney plus show. 00;08;11;05 - 00;08;14;29 Speaker 3 Because everyone loves Obi Wan, everyone loves Ewan McGregor. That's why. 00;08;14;29 - 00;08;15;03 Speaker 5 Yeah. 00;08;15;13 - 00;08;16;09 Speaker 3 Yeah. Honestly. 00;08;17;27 - 00;08;18;06 Speaker 5 Yeah. 00;08;18;28 - 00;08;20;24 Speaker 1 So there are fewer muted. 00;08;20;29 - 00;08;21;11 Speaker 3 Muted. 00;08;22;13 - 00;08;27;03 Speaker 2 Of course I am. As Nic says, you get a series and you get a series. 00;08;27;03 - 00;08;29;03 Speaker 5 Everybody gets a series. 00;08;29;04 - 00;08;30;17 Speaker 1 Thank you, Oprah. Where's my. 00;08;30;17 - 00;08;31;09 Speaker 5 Car? 00;08;31;25 - 00;08;34;16 Speaker 2 The Ontario Queen Okay. 00;08;35;29 - 00;08;39;03 Speaker 1 Now we're back to, I guess maybe the same. 00;08;39;18 - 00;08;41;06 Speaker 4 We haven't seen one yet on back to. 00;08;41;24 - 00;08;43;00 Speaker 2 The number two. I know. 00;08;43;00 - 00;08;48;21 Speaker 1 But they have I mean, they basically have it all. I mean, it's just a desert, right? And rocks, so it's. Yeah. 00;08;50;23 - 00;09;07;27 Speaker 2 Now, as we have said this week, the Obi-Wan Kenobi series premiered with episodes one and two and Xena, I'm going to start with you. Was this a forceful start or is this series headed for the dark side? 00;09;08;09 - 00;09;29;21 Speaker 3 OK, well, my expectation guns were super duper low, like really low, because I was thinking it's going to be watching the fire meditating for at least 20, 30 minutes in that first episode. And that didn't happen. So this actually met my expectations. It exceeded my expectations, and I fell in love with our little Princess Leia. And that casting was amazing. 00;09;30;00 - 00;09;49;19 Speaker 3 The one part that's a little dark side for me was the casting of Flea. The casting. A flea threw me out and I started singing Danny California, and I'm like, What is going on? And that was the only part that I was like, This is really bad cast. I also I forgot about this church, which is now the Grand Inquisitor is not the Grand Inquisitor from the Clone Wars. 00;09;49;19 - 00;09;58;02 Speaker 3 And so I got a little irked on that. How come they didn't pick the right guy? But then we saw what happened. So hopefully the right inquisitor will show up and then we can have that. 00;09;58;06 - 00;10;00;19 Speaker 2 OK, is he really dead? Though, or is it? 00;10;00;19 - 00;10;02;24 Speaker 4 Yeah, I think he's the same. I think. 00;10;02;24 - 00;10;04;09 Speaker 2 It's the same guy in guy. 00;10;04;09 - 00;10;06;09 Speaker 4 But just has a different look to him. 00;10;06;15 - 00;10;07;22 Speaker 3 OK, and I was really because. 00;10;07;22 - 00;10;11;00 Speaker 4 He was really skinny headed right ours are in rebels. 00;10;11;07 - 00;10;24;06 Speaker 3 He had rebels. So I was very thrown off by that. So maybe that was part of my problem. But I remember one booboo I could not that was a worse casting. So it's forceful starting however dark side fully. Anyway, what about you, Pete? 00;10;25;25 - 00;10;50;12 Speaker 4 So I have liked it. I I'll give I'll give it a forceful start. Also, I don't think it's been great. I think it's I think the star Wars TV series are starting to maybe show their flaws that they're kind of a little bit same me, same kind of all the same tone. But I did love seeing Ewan McGregor. 00;10;50;12 - 00;11;10;16 Speaker 4 I loved some of the Easter eggs, which I think we're going to get into a couple of those as I'm coming up on that. Talk more. But I did like that and I was very close in my predictions because I said I think they're going to get off of tattooing very quickly. And I also thought it wasn't going to be about Luke. 00;11;10;16 - 00;11;30;02 Speaker 4 Now, I didn't I was surprised that it ended up being Leia being the character, and I was well, that was probably the coolest part for me. I was like, Oh yeah, that's a good idea, because like it explains why in episode four, she's like, she knows who he is because otherwise how would she know who he is, you know? 00;11;30;02 - 00;11;31;20 Speaker 1 So it really will be one. 00;11;31;27 - 00;11;55;09 Speaker 4 Right? Right. So like, would she just have known him by reputation? I don't know. But, you know, so it kind of worked. I thought that I thought that worked. The first episode was kind of draggy. I thought it could it could have moved a little faster. But it also made sense that the end of the episode was him like accepting the task. 00;11;55;09 - 00;12;04;08 Speaker 4 But like, to me it's like, did we really need 45 minutes of is Obi Wan going to going to help or not? Because really he was going to help. 00;12;04;18 - 00;12;09;29 Speaker 3 But I wasn't meditating about it. I thought for sure he'd be in meditation mode first. 00;12;10;01 - 00;12;34;07 Speaker 4 So, so, so I'd say it was, it was better than Gina's. He's going to sit in front of the fire for 45 minutes, but it could have been paced a little bit there. And then the second episode I thought was was really was the first one. And I liked the pace that I mostly liked layup, but I thought this isn't a ten year old. 00;12;34;07 - 00;12;39;26 Speaker 4 But that was, that was idea. It seemed like the actress was much younger than ten. 00;12;40;00 - 00;12;41;00 Speaker 3 Yeah, she was out. 00;12;41;01 - 00;12;42;26 Speaker 4 Was it just me or no. 00;12;42;26 - 00;12;44;13 Speaker 3 Yeah, I am very little. 00;12;44;23 - 00;12;45;05 Speaker 1 Man. 00;12;45;05 - 00;12;45;20 Speaker 2 Just you. 00;12;45;26 - 00;12;53;09 Speaker 1 Yeah. My my eight year old looks older and is way bigger than her. Yeah. 00;12;53;24 - 00;13;15;20 Speaker 4 Yeah. Because when I first saw her is like, oh, they do set somehow. This isn't set when they're ten years old. But then they called her ten several times. So. Yeah, yeah, I thought that. I thought that was kind of strange, but I, I, she played it as like the annoying child. Which usually gets on my nerves, but like, this is, this is Princess Leia. 00;13;15;20 - 00;13;19;10 Speaker 4 She would be the annoying, annoying child. 00;13;19;16 - 00;13;22;16 Speaker 3 That's why it was a well cast. I really couldn't. 00;13;22;18 - 00;13;22;24 Speaker 5 See. 00;13;23;12 - 00;13;30;22 Speaker 4 So it was totally it was totally right. So I'm sorry, I've been hogging the mic, so I'm going to turn it over. See, him? 00;13;31;27 - 00;13;53;17 Speaker 1 Well, I will say I loved these two episodes, and I am. I like Star Wars, but I am not the Star Wars. Super fan that Gina is. And I would say I'm not nearly as knowledgeable about Star Wars as Pete is. I've not watched any of the cartoons. I didn't like that bad batch show that we watched for a bit, but I. 00;13;53;24 - 00;14;17;24 Speaker 1 I loved the way they set up this show. It was really, really smart for those of us who haven't watched the movies in quite some time. And when I say the movies, I mean episodes one through nine. I loved that. They gave us the whole flashback, right? Previous on. Right. They do that on normal TV shows, but they don't do that normally when there isn't like a prior episode. 00;14;17;24 - 00;14;50;04 Speaker 1 But here they actually did. They gave us the whole Luke and lay a back story, you know how that they were and a kids kids and how Obi Wan was training Anakin because quite than got killed. So all of that set up giving me that in a bite size like flashback was so helpful because not that I wouldn't have figured it out and remembered as the show went on but it was just so refreshing for somebody who's not a Star Wars super fan and made watching made the show super watchable. 00;14;50;26 - 00;15;13;01 Speaker 1 I also loved that it followed Leia. I was not I kind of didn't know what to expect. I had really had no predictions about what was going to happen. But I love the organizers. I love Jimmy Smits. I think he's wonderful as the senator and I love his wife. And I just love that they spent some time with that family unit. 00;15;13;21 - 00;15;54;29 Speaker 1 I loved Little Leia, even though she's definitely not ten. She's probably like six or seven I love that she's into her little her little box. Right. And things like that. Like, I just thought it was really well done. I also thought it was really interesting to see a different side of Obi Wan, right? We think of Obi Wan as this hero, as this helper guy, but we got to see Obi Wan really have to take on this completely different persona of being not involved because he was trying to hide and watch Luke watch over Luke and stay undetected and how conflicted he was about helping when that other Jedi showed up on Katwe. 00;15;54;29 - 00;16;12;27 Speaker 1 So I thought that was an idea that was kind of a side story, but I thought that was a good way of getting bringing the inquisitors to Tatsumi and then kind of introducing us to them before we see Obi Wan actually leave. So I thought they did a great set up. Yes. Episode one was really not a ton of plot happening. 00;16;12;27 - 00;16;36;20 Speaker 1 It was more background development. We knew introducing characters kind of setting the stage for the plot. I thought that was really well done, even though yes, it was a slower episode. But then episode two, when he leaves the planet to go rescue Leia, definitely moves more. I really like the the female inquisitor, the African-American woman. I can't remember her. 00;16;36;23 - 00;16;39;05 Speaker 1 The character's name because I don't know most of that. 00;16;39;05 - 00;16;40;26 Speaker 3 She's sister. Somebody's sister. 00;16;40;26 - 00;16;42;18 Speaker 1 Right? Sister, third sister. 00;16;44;16 - 00;16;44;24 Speaker 5 Yeah. 00;16;44;24 - 00;17;08;05 Speaker 1 I thought she was wonderful. She was just, you know, bad ass. I really it's so I. Yeah, I mean, I think we've got some interesting new characters. I agree that Lee as kind of the thug for anyone who's watching Flee, is from Red Hot Chili Peppers, and he acts, but he's also like a famous drummer, and. 00;17;08;05 - 00;17;09;18 Speaker 2 So he acts. 00;17;10;01 - 00;17;12;01 Speaker 3 He's in. So he's in back to the future. 00;17;12;01 - 00;17;14;21 Speaker 1 Yeah, he's in some of these movies. 00;17;15;01 - 00;17;15;08 Speaker 5 Right? 00;17;15;08 - 00;17;20;07 Speaker 3 Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's the same. He's back to the future. He's flee. He's always. Yeah. 00;17;20;20 - 00;17;45;07 Speaker 1 Yeah, he's yeah, he's in. OK, fair enough. He's he's in movies. Has been a working actor for a while now, but like, he's just super recognizable as the drummer from the Red Hot Chili Peppers. And it's just really weird. I agree with Eugene. I don't think that was well cast, but his role was so it was fine. It's just the, you know, the planet thug, basically. 00;17;45;07 - 00;17;54;07 Speaker 1 So, yeah. Anyway, I thought it was a great forceful start, as Derek put it. I loved it, and I'm really excited for episode three. 00;17;54;25 - 00;17;59;11 Speaker 4 It was like John Mulaney as Chip. Yes. It shows up in your and you're like, Why? 00;17;59;22 - 00;18;01;20 Speaker 5 Why don't you let me. Yes. 00;18;02;02 - 00;18;04;25 Speaker 4 Why? Why is why is Flea chasing after Leah. 00;18;06;23 - 00;18;07;17 Speaker 3 Why are you. 00;18;07;20 - 00;18;08;24 Speaker 4 This sorry, Derek. 00;18;08;24 - 00;18;11;12 Speaker 1 And Derek up to you. 00;18;11;28 - 00;18;12;03 Speaker 4 Ooh. 00;18;13;03 - 00;18;24;16 Speaker 2 I am probably the one that had the highest expectations for this series among the four of us. There's a reason they brought out two episodes the first week because nothing happened in episode one, which. 00;18;24;16 - 00;18;26;03 Speaker 3 We predicted we did predict. Right? 00;18;26;03 - 00;18;47;09 Speaker 2 We did predict that. But it was so boring. It was so slow. It was just. Yes, we get it. He's having issues. The biggest issue I have with this series is the lack of drama. We know nothing is going to happen. Nothing real bad is going to happen to Leah. She's going to live. Luke is going to be OK. 00;18;47;11 - 00;18;54;14 Speaker 2 Obi Wan is going to live. When we knew what she was threatening on, we knew she wasn't going to kill him. We knew she wasn't going to kill him. 00;18;55;00 - 00;18;55;27 Speaker 3 Because he shows up in. 00;18;56;02 - 00;19;10;15 Speaker 2 Where's the drama in this series? Where is the I don't know what's going to happen next because none of the other characters I care about yes. What I can see is Jimmy Smits. Her parents may end up dying by the end of the series. 00;19;11;00 - 00;19;13;20 Speaker 4 No. By Diane Alder. And when that blows. 00;19;13;20 - 00;19;15;22 Speaker 3 Up, she blows. That one better blossom up. 00;19;16;01 - 00;19;21;28 Speaker 2 But I also had an issue with the fact that when her mother came home. 00;19;22;11 - 00;19;23;03 Speaker 1 From her. 00;19;23;03 - 00;19;24;26 Speaker 5 There we haven't. 00;19;24;26 - 00;19;25;21 Speaker 3 Watched it by now. 00;19;26;22 - 00;19;28;11 Speaker 4 Since the very first Star Wars. 00;19;28;11 - 00;19;30;08 Speaker 5 Movie. So I'm just joking. 00;19;30;08 - 00;19;32;01 Speaker 1 Because I was like, that was really funny. 00;19;32;07 - 00;19;55;02 Speaker 2 But when they brought in her mom, there was no introduction to that. That was her mom. Right. And so it took a minute to realize, who is this woman coming in and talking to her? And so it's just one of those where, oh, it's her mom. Wait, she's pornopat me honest. She's pulling a she's got the girl in there who happens to be her same size. 00;19;55;20 - 00;20;15;01 Speaker 2 The fake it out, really? I mean, this goes to show to me that there are no original stories left at Disney right now. Why? I mean, Derek. No, no, tell me the last original thing we saw thank you. So anyway, man, to me. To me. 00;20;16;04 - 00;20;16;19 Speaker 5 Yes. 00;20;17;06 - 00;20;18;25 Speaker 2 OK. Non marvel. 00;20;20;10 - 00;20;20;16 Speaker 5 Right? 00;20;20;29 - 00;20;23;07 Speaker 2 I mean, it's just it's. 00;20;23;22 - 00;20;27;02 Speaker 1 The the encanto that was brand new. 00;20;27;08 - 00;20;27;18 Speaker 3 Yeah. 00;20;28;03 - 00;20;29;25 Speaker 1 Luca, that was brand new. 00;20;31;12 - 00;20;50;24 Speaker 2 And Luca. Luca was an awful lot. Little Mermaid ish. It it have tons. A Little Mermaid. So I know to me, this is definitely drifting towards the dark side. For me, it's it's not nearly as good as I expected, but as I said, I've had, I've had fairly high expectations for it. 00;20;50;25 - 00;20;55;29 Speaker 4 Yeah. It's funny that there's like, an inverse thing here. The higher the expectation. 00;20;56;15 - 00;20;57;20 Speaker 2 That, the lower the word. 00;20;58;02 - 00;21;03;22 Speaker 4 That's what we thought the series because what Sam had the least expectations and I think the best. 00;21;03;23 - 00;21;18;02 Speaker 1 Yeah. I honestly I didn't have lower high expectations. I just really had no none because I really I had no preconceived notions about what the series was going to be other than it's called Obi-Wan Kenobi. So I. 00;21;18;02 - 00;21;19;15 Speaker 5 Know it's going to be. 00;21;19;15 - 00;21;35;07 Speaker 1 About Obi-Wan or now Ben. Right. So which is I like that, actually. I will say, you know, we knew he was called Ben in a new hope. And I was like, but I didn't know how that happened. And now it makes sense that he's hiding is Ben. 00;21;35;10 - 00;21;44;18 Speaker 2 And I was just waiting for him to get busted for stealing whatever it is that they're harvesting and him have to fight his way. Yeah. I mean, giant salmon. 00;21;45;09 - 00;21;48;14 Speaker 3 Spice. It's back to the spice. I liked that little tie in anyway. 00;21;48;17 - 00;22;05;11 Speaker 2 So Nick says he's intrigued, but his mind didn't want her to other. Sorry, that is Steve next. Coming out. I mean, he minded wanted two other things while watching. Steve says she looks like a third grader. He looked younger, but she talked older. 00;22;05;24 - 00;22;11;09 Speaker 3 She spoke older. But then you look at Carrie Fisher. She was very small. That's how they kind of she was. 00;22;11;16 - 00;22;15;23 Speaker 1 I think she looks, you know, look younger because my son is a second grader and is a. 00;22;15;27 - 00;22;16;12 Speaker 3 Smaller. 00;22;16;17 - 00;22;19;03 Speaker 1 And she's much smaller than him. 00;22;19;07 - 00;22;24;06 Speaker 2 But again, that age to me, though, you can't really go necessarily by size. 00;22;25;05 - 00;22;29;24 Speaker 1 Yeah. But her facial features cause I just feel like she looked like she was like. 00;22;29;24 - 00;22;45;06 Speaker 2 I would agree. I would agree. Yeah. Yeah. Nick says the backstory info made him feel like the story was always meant to be told. It was like OK, let's go see. My wife had the opposite reaction. It's one of those. OK, everyone who's watching this knows what happened in one, two, and three. Why are we really watching this? 00;22;45;22 - 00;22;54;14 Speaker 1 It was a refresher. It was a bite sized refresher. That's what I actually I loved that because it was short but gave like, enough of the backstory. 00;22;54;20 - 00;22;59;15 Speaker 3 We not watching it, especially when I'm watching it all the time. Like me, you're not crazy. You're not always, like, going back. 00;22;59;16 - 00;23;19;00 Speaker 1 Like, it's. Yeah, it's been years since I watched episodes one, two and three and probably even longer since I watch the new HOH, which I feel like those are kind of those obviously flat the, the, the series. And so I feel like those are the ones you kind of want to watch to understand what's going on here. 00;23;19;18 - 00;23;19;28 Speaker 5 OK. 00;23;21;22 - 00;23;32;22 Speaker 4 So I just looked this up. Sorry. So just look, this up and the actress that is playing young Leah was born June 4th 20 and 12 which would. 00;23;32;23 - 00;23;32;29 Speaker 2 Make. 00;23;33;03 - 00;23;33;14 Speaker 5 Her. 00;23;33;21 - 00;23;34;17 Speaker 4 And then. 00;23;34;25 - 00;23;38;24 Speaker 2 Now ten next month or she was eight or nine when. 00;23;39;13 - 00;23;40;26 Speaker 3 They figured it out. 00;23;42;05 - 00;23;55;20 Speaker 1 Well they probably did it because the way that they filmed this right it makes sense to a younger actress if they are going to film multiple, multiple seasons over a longer time period because they got to, they got to film her before she hits puberty. Right. So the. 00;23;55;29 - 00;23;56;22 Speaker 3 Person and. 00;23;56;23 - 00;23;58;10 Speaker 1 She's going to look different. Yeah. 00;23;58;29 - 00;24;07;04 Speaker 2 As Nick says that both Marks and Kim is so adorable. Yeah. That that Bob will be on back who by the end of June. 00;24;07;08 - 00;24;08;18 Speaker 3 I was say coming soon. 00;24;08;18 - 00;24;09;23 Speaker 2 79. 95. 00;24;10;02 - 00;24;10;11 Speaker 4 Yeah. 00;24;12;15 - 00;24;36;07 Speaker 2 Glenn says that the issue with a very limited time line story, you can't really develop drama with major characters. That's a fair point. If you know how they're going to everyone's going to be OK, you got to figure out some other way to make the make the audience buy in. And I just haven't seen it yet, Holly says other than knowing who the characters are I know very little about Star Wars have very much enjoyed the start of the series. 00;24;36;09 - 00;24;44;10 Speaker 2 OK, so it seems like it seems like very mixed reactions at the moment. I'm not I'm personally not giving up hope on it. 00;24;45;13 - 00;24;46;13 Speaker 5 But I'm supporting. 00;24;47;08 - 00;25;00;23 Speaker 2 And actually there was no intention. Now, as I was saying it, of course, I was thinking that but yeah, Rachel says, Do you think this one started off slow? But personally, I like how they blended the movie into the first episode to make sure we knew where this fit. 00;25;01;16 - 00;25;01;26 Speaker 1 So I. 00;25;02;08 - 00;25;19;13 Speaker 2 Could have done that ten years later. Just a little bit bigger, honestly, because if you're not looking at the Yeah, almost do it in the blue font ten years later. Dot, dot, dot, right? Because if you if you were looking at the bottom, what link at the bottom, you might have missed that. 00;25;20;06 - 00;25;23;19 Speaker 4 They should have gone ten years later in a galaxy far, far. 00;25;25;16 - 00;25;25;22 Speaker 5 Yeah. 00;25;26;05 - 00;25;46;07 Speaker 2 Family guy of them to do so anyway. Yes, right now there were a ton of great Easter eggs in these first two episodes. And so I'm going to say, Pete, what was your favorite Easter egg? And then what is an Easter egg? You would love to see them call back to gosh. 00;25;46;09 - 00;26;09;11 Speaker 4 I was you know, I was trying to think it's so hard to like say, oh, this is this is an Easter egg that I want to see. But I my favorite one in the in the show, I actually posted it on Instagram was like that Obi Wan bought this toy. It's not an X-Wing or anything but try but that. 00;26;09;15 - 00;26;39;15 Speaker 4 Yeah, whatever. This this this toy spaceship that he tried to give to own for to give to Luke and it I completely forgot about until someone posted it online. But like that same ship Luke is playing with in, in a new hope when he's sitting in his room kind of going. So it's like, oh my gosh, that's, that's, that's pretty clever, you know, even though he didn't get it, I guess we're I guess we're assuming later in the, in the series he's going to he's going to end up getting it. 00;26;40;02 - 00;26;41;25 Speaker 2 But I'm guessing last episode. 00;26;42;06 - 00;27;07;00 Speaker 4 Yeah, but I just thought that was I was like, oh, that's, that's really like to, to have that much foresight to say, oh, this little moment in the show matches up with this moment in this show. I really, I really like that I was, I was the Easter egg I wanted to hear with, you know, everybody knows Leia's line the aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper? 00;27;07;00 - 00;27;29;09 Speaker 4 I wanted her to say to you, MacGyver, Gregor, aren't you a little old for a Jedi? But she didn't say that. So that that's the Easter I want I want somehow that line to come back, be great. And however she manages to do it, I would love to see I would love to see some like some parallels and some of Leia's dialog come along. 00;27;29;09 - 00;27;32;23 Speaker 4 So that's that's I guess what I want to see. What about you, Sam? 00;27;33;17 - 00;27;59;13 Speaker 1 I want to see some C-3PO. We've already seen some other droids. We saw her little flying bot. We saw that she's really nice to droids in general. But we also know that C-3PO was a droid that belonged to the work on a family. I know this review has his memory wiped later, and so he doesn't know who it is later, but he's got to be in his life before before a new hope. 00;27;59;13 - 00;28;11;27 Speaker 1 So we I want to see him at some point during this series. I may not be this season. It might be season two. Who knows? But it would be really nice to see the reveal dark. 00;28;14;18 - 00;28;29;19 Speaker 2 I will say my favorite Easter egg. I have one that I knew. I have one that I actually just thought of. First one is the and you guys are going to help me with the actors name the Boba Fett, Jango Fat and the Stormtrooper. 00;28;29;20 - 00;28;30;22 Speaker 4 Who Morrison is. 00;28;30;24 - 00;28;32;06 Speaker 3 Oh yeah. Where I am. 00;28;32;06 - 00;28;34;29 Speaker 2 This as the out of work stormtrooper. 00;28;35;04 - 00;28;38;08 Speaker 3 I had to look him up. I had to make sure like that looks like guy looks really familiar. 00;28;38;23 - 00;28;41;06 Speaker 4 That's like the same guy that played Boba Fett. 00;28;41;14 - 00;28;42;01 Speaker 2 Yes. 00;28;42;05 - 00;28;43;06 Speaker 3 Yeah, I love that. 00;28;44;10 - 00;28;59;27 Speaker 2 My other one and I just thought of this, OK, the creature that they're harvesting that flesh from or whatever, is that the same creature that you see the skeleton of in a new hope when three peo and arts who are walking through the desert. 00;29;00;08 - 00;29;00;25 Speaker 4 Could be. 00;29;01;07 - 00;29;14;11 Speaker 2 That would be an interesting Easter egg. Yeah. I want to see the cave he's in now is not the is not the high he's in a new hope that he's going to keep getting it better. 00;29;14;27 - 00;29;15;19 Speaker 5 Or. 00;29;16;16 - 00;29;37;10 Speaker 2 It's going to have to move somewhere. I don't think they've made too many references to John Jen showing up in this series for him to not show up in this series. The comment the preview part about him being able to talk the quake on and then him calling out for him in the cave. He's going to show up again. 00;29;38;13 - 00;29;39;22 Speaker 4 I think so too. Yeah. 00;29;41;04 - 00;30;00;13 Speaker 2 Yeah. Nick Nick has one is chopping that off. The villagers had an Easter egg like because they do that a lot of the different ones. Well, parental controls aren't enough behind parental controls. Yet, although there is a warning now on it for killing the killing of the younglings. 00;30;00;13 - 00;30;01;09 Speaker 3 Yeah. The first scene. 00;30;01;21 - 00;30;06;23 Speaker 2 So somebody once he got his girlfriend. 00;30;07;13 - 00;30;07;25 Speaker 3 Yoda. 00;30;07;27 - 00;30;08;07 Speaker 2 Yeah. 00;30;08;21 - 00;30;11;20 Speaker 5 Yeah, yeah. Yeah. 00;30;11;23 - 00;30;12;12 Speaker 3 Yo, that. 00;30;12;23 - 00;30;14;21 Speaker 2 Yo, that bud. 00;30;15;28 - 00;30;22;06 Speaker 5 That's Jason. Yeah, that's my friend. She wants yo that, you know, that. 00;30;23;22 - 00;30;45;12 Speaker 2 I don't know. I think I think some of the line references that they could have used in this war were lost. Like, as you said, the aren't you a little old to be a Jedi type thing? I still want him to somehow mockingly call him Darth because Hayden Christian, obviously, he didn't show up at the very end of episode two. 00;30;46;06 - 00;30;52;00 Speaker 2 He now knows he's alive. Which favorite? The fact that he hasn't knows he's alive for ten years. 00;30;53;24 - 00;30;56;04 Speaker 1 I thought that just sent each other. 00;30;57;01 - 00;30;57;08 Speaker 3 Around. 00;30;57;29 - 00;30;58;11 Speaker 1 To have. 00;30;58;24 - 00;30;59;17 Speaker 3 Been around. 00;31;00;04 - 00;31;01;00 Speaker 1 But he said. 00;31;01;07 - 00;31;01;08 Speaker 5 But. 00;31;01;10 - 00;31;04;25 Speaker 2 Apparently you don't have to be around each other. You have to be around each other. 00;31;04;28 - 00;31;27;29 Speaker 3 But they're serious. You guys, you guys underestimate Palpatine. Darth Cities lied to him and said, everyone's dead. We killed everybody. Order. 66. Everyone's dead. You are. You're going to help me. You know, whatever. So he will do. You have to remember Anakin Slash Darth Vader is totally under control of Palpatine and believes every single thing he says. So even if he felt something, he's like, no, your feelings are don't trust your feelings. 00;31;28;06 - 00;31;41;02 Speaker 4 But he must. He must have thought Obi Wan. Sorry. He must have thought Obi Wan was still alive, though, because these inquisitors, like, know about him. Right? And and the the the main one that's chasing Obi Wan. She's like, I. 00;31;41;02 - 00;31;42;04 Speaker 2 Better want to catch him. 00;31;42;13 - 00;31;44;27 Speaker 4 Ten years. And, like, so. 00;31;45;04 - 00;31;46;09 Speaker 3 Maybe, you know, like. 00;31;47;04 - 00;31;52;00 Speaker 2 Or so. Does Anika know Ben's alive? But Ben didn't know Anakin was along. 00;31;52;00 - 00;31;53;07 Speaker 3 Yeah, that's that's that's it. 00;31;53;13 - 00;31;54;01 Speaker 2 OK, yeah. 00;31;54;18 - 00;31;55;08 Speaker 3 That's a bad. 00;31;55;08 - 00;32;14;15 Speaker 4 Thing. And I I, I have to say, like, I thought Ewan McGregor played that moment really well where he found out that in a Katniss is Darth Vader. I mean, he must, because he you've got to figure, he must have known of the existence of Darth Vader. He must have heard about him. 00;32;14;28 - 00;32;17;11 Speaker 2 Well, because he was called Darth Vader in three. 00;32;18;05 - 00;32;19;01 Speaker 3 He was. 00;32;20;00 - 00;32;34;15 Speaker 4 Right. But I'm just saying I'm saying, like over the interim ten years, you know, I'm sure Obi Wan was hearing what was going on in the you know, with the Sith and everything. So he probably knew that there was a Darth Vader out there, but he didn't know it was. 00;32;35;00 - 00;32;36;24 Speaker 1 That it was in a cave because I. 00;32;36;26 - 00;32;38;06 Speaker 4 Thought he killed in again. 00;32;38;24 - 00;32;39;20 Speaker 1 Right. 00;32;40;13 - 00;32;54;18 Speaker 2 But so and I can was I'm the movie. This episode showed him being called Darth Vader when he put his mask on. Right. But in three wasn't he called Darth Vader before. 00;32;54;22 - 00;32;57;24 Speaker 3 He was but with Darth Vader is not. Yeah. 00;32;58;02 - 00;33;05;24 Speaker 4 Yeah Palpatine slash city has called him Darth Vader. But no, I don't. But Obi-Wan didn't know that. 00;33;05;24 - 00;33;07;14 Speaker 2 Didn't know him as Darth Vader as. 00;33;07;15 - 00;33;11;26 Speaker 3 Though he you just knew he turned to the dark side to save Batman, right? 00;33;12;14 - 00;33;12;29 Speaker 2 So. 00;33;13;05 - 00;33;13;23 Speaker 4 Yeah. All right. 00;33;14;05 - 00;33;14;16 Speaker 2 Well. 00;33;14;28 - 00;33;16;15 Speaker 3 My turn, my turn, my turn. I am. 00;33;16;22 - 00;33;17;25 Speaker 2 Sorry. All right, Gina. 00;33;18;01 - 00;33;33;01 Speaker 3 So you already said all my Easter eggs based Drake was hitting Christians, and that was the coolest. That was the best shot of the whole thing. I was so happy to see him. The only thing I do want to see is I want to see the return of Kanan Juris. He is a he is Caleb from Bad Batch. 00;33;33;01 - 00;33;40;14 Speaker 3 He is the one Jerry who survives, and I want to see him return. And I don't know if he'll be here or to be honest. OK, but I need to see Kanan soon. 00;33;41;16 - 00;33;41;24 Speaker 5 OK? 00;33;43;19 - 00;33;45;10 Speaker 4 Logan came in killed in rebels, though. 00;33;46;17 - 00;33;47;26 Speaker 3 But rebels is after this. 00;33;48;20 - 00;33;53;19 Speaker 4 Oh, we could see him in this boat and saying you said in the Soka Sokha is after his ouster. 00;33;53;26 - 00;33;55;17 Speaker 3 Yeah, OK. Yeah. 00;33;56;17 - 00;33;59;18 Speaker 2 And Nick says the rotating light saber spinning thing was cool. 00;33;59;28 - 00;34;03;08 Speaker 3 He likes the cartoon. Is it really cool? And the curse? 00;34;03;27 - 00;34;04;21 Speaker 5 Yeah. The rebels. 00;34;05;14 - 00;34;08;29 Speaker 2 What, you mean you can do a lot of cartoon things that you can't do with practical effects. 00;34;08;29 - 00;34;11;14 Speaker 5 Unless you do so. 00;34;12;07 - 00;34;24;06 Speaker 2 OK, so next week or actually tomorrow it'll be one episode three comes out so that and guys at that point that will put this halfway through the series which is just too quick. 00;34;24;19 - 00;34;25;06 Speaker 1 Crazy. 00;34;25;15 - 00;34;49;09 Speaker 2 It's going to be fast. Yeah. Now, guys, what I want to know and what I really want to know from my audience is what else have you been watching? We've watched lots of movies. We've watched lots of Marvel. We've been watching lots of Star Wars, but there is so much else out on Disney. Plus right now, what have you been watching and was it any good or is that something we can skip? 00;34;49;17 - 00;34;50;26 Speaker 2 Sam, I'm going to start with you. 00;34;51;20 - 00;35;05;28 Speaker 1 I have a great TV series for you all to watch. It is called The Wizard of Paws to W.S. and it follows this guy. Yes. 00;35;06;25 - 00;35;08;14 Speaker 2 Is that along the lines of air, bud? 00;35;09;02 - 00;35;41;00 Speaker 1 No, it's not. Know it follows this guy who makes prosthetics for animals. So he does it for mostly dogs, but a lot of farm animals, horses, donkeys, goats, all kinds of animals. But basically animals that have lost a limb or were born without a limb or were born with deformed lens. He used to do human prosthetics. Apparently, I was reading the bio of this guy, and it is amazing. 00;35;41;00 - 00;36;07;25 Speaker 1 To watch how he he basically crafts everything from scratch. He you know, he fits the animals. He takes the like a cast of their whatever, their pa, their body or whatever he needs to do and then creates a prosthetic. You know, he tested on them. These, if it works, make some adjustments and you see these animals who are going from struggling to walk or stand to being able to run. 00;36;07;25 - 00;36;36;24 Speaker 1 And in some cases, you know, they're able to walk, but they're they're screwing up the alignment of their spine and things like that because they're compensating for whatever deformity they have. And so he's fixing it to give them a long and happy life warning it will make you cry if you're anything like I am and you love animals and you cry when you see animals, be happy and run around like they're puppies again. 00;36;36;24 - 00;37;03;02 Speaker 1 So it's just a heartwarming, wonderful series. I think it's two seasons. It was filmed in 20, 20 in 20, 21, I believe it was. The seasons were released, I think actually on like Nat Geo and now obviously it's on Disney Plus. It's just fantastic. I can't get enough. So definitely something for you all tuners to watch, but also for the audience to watch as well. 00;37;03;15 - 00;37;06;00 Speaker 1 I love it. Derek, what are you watching? 00;37;06;28 - 00;37;07;26 Speaker 4 He says, that's great. 00;37;08;24 - 00;37;18;22 Speaker 1 Yeah, and I believe they do cats too, but they didn't have any. I've watched the first, I don't know, maybe like eight episodes and I haven't seen a cat yet, and that's OK because I'm a dog person. 00;37;18;26 - 00;37;28;12 Speaker 2 So actually, I think I just actually got a message from someone off not on this, that he also did an African elephant, I think. 00;37;28;21 - 00;37;29;28 Speaker 3 Oh, very cool. 00;37;29;28 - 00;37;33;21 Speaker 1 That's so it's just so cool. It's all good, the stuff that he does. 00;37;34;03 - 00;37;55;08 Speaker 2 All right. I was super excited about the coming out of the documentary series. More Than Robots or documentary special More Than Robots. It's about high school robotics, which for those of you who don't know, they get a new problem every year. They have to design robots and then they go to these competitions. This followed three or four different teams that were qualifying for the Worlds, et cetera. 00;37;56;07 - 00;38;10;01 Speaker 2 It didn't take place. All of 19 spring of 20. So that's the year marks everything. Shut down, guys. That's an hour of my life. I will never get back. It was not good. It was. 00;38;10;02 - 00;38;13;03 Speaker 1 A bummer. I actually had it on my list of things to watch. Yeah, I. 00;38;13;03 - 00;38;17;25 Speaker 3 Wanted to show it to the kids. Like, don't, don't. The kids could do a whole robotics thing. 00;38;17;25 - 00;38;39;27 Speaker 2 And no. And you never see them actually compete with the robots. You never actually get connected to any of the people. You never actually nothing. This is worse than nothing happens. It's there are no emotion. There's no emotional stories told nothing. Do not watch more than robots. Uh, bummer, Gina. 00;38;40;08 - 00;39;09;24 Speaker 3 So I live in second grade, and it's the end of the school year, so I always ask the kiddos, what do you guys want to watch at the end? You know, we have a couple shows like Disney Plus has a show, Secrets of Sulfur Springs. This show is about time travel into from now into 1980s because girl gets she's disappearing from the eighties and she ends up time traveling back to the 1960s and it deals with the racial problems of the sixties. 00;39;09;26 - 00;39;27;04 Speaker 3 It deals with the issues of kidnaping haunted houses all this stuff and I watched it and it's so intriguing and it's out for two it's already has two seasons so secrets of Sulfur Springs it's on Disney plus that's also going to have a season three I think so that's. 00;39;27;12 - 00;39;30;05 Speaker 1 And is it good for second graders. They love. 00;39;30;05 - 00;39;33;26 Speaker 3 It. They're the ones who recommended it. Third place. It's not that scary. 00;39;34;05 - 00;39;36;13 Speaker 1 I'm going to put that on my list. Yeah, so. 00;39;37;13 - 00;39;46;28 Speaker 4 Yeah, I watched a couple of episodes of it on the Disney Channel last summer and it didn't quite draw me in enough to to want to keep watching it. But it, it seemed like a pretty decent show. 00;39;47;12 - 00;39;57;03 Speaker 3 Yeah, it's great. Like I said, it's perfect for that eight year old level. It's the eight year old level. That's probably why, Pete, you're like, Oh, I don't know if I should yeah. It's very eight years old. 00;39;58;28 - 00;40;31;24 Speaker 4 So I wanted we had talked about this show, whether we would cover it, but I wanted to mention the Quest, which is a combination fantasy show slash reality show where they take like eight kids that are that are really into, you know, I'll say like Fantasy Dungeons and Dragons, Lord of the Rings. And they basically put them into a story about this you know, this kingdom where there's a wizard trying to take over and everything like that, and then they have to perform these tasks. 00;40;31;24 - 00;40;53;01 Speaker 4 So it's like a combination of you know, some fantasy show. And then there's also some reality competition. And and we've watched the first three episodes, I think there might be eight episodes. And I was at my daughter earlier today. I was like, do you want to keep watching this? And she was like. 00;40;53;28 - 00;40;54;15 Speaker 5 Yeah, I'm kind of. 00;40;54;15 - 00;41;17;28 Speaker 4 Interested in it. I would say it's a little too heavily weighted towards the time. On the reality. There's there's like a lot of it's very plot driven so far, but I do like they have to they like basically are giving these some of these different tasks to collect these crystals. And they have people that are dressed up as like fairies and demons and things like that. 00;41;17;28 - 00;41;38;06 Speaker 4 And the makeups, very impressive. So they clearly spent a lot of money on this to make the show. And and I think it's I think it's worth a viewing. I think everybody's going to like it. But I do think it would be a good show for for tweens probably and maybe into teens. And I'm going to probably keep watching it. 00;41;39;20 - 00;41;42;14 Speaker 4 OK, so that's my Gina. 00;41;42;14 - 00;41;54;09 Speaker 2 Rachel says she totally agrees with you. Glad they're on Hannah. Season two on now. She also says adventure through the Walt Disney Archives Yes, Rachel, I have seen that. That was great. 00;41;54;16 - 00;41;55;05 Speaker 3 That was great. 00;41;55;12 - 00;42;15;26 Speaker 2 The National Parks and Brain Games. Yeah, we've mentioned brain games several times on here. That that's and that's again, that's an all ages show. A good show. That's a yeah. That's a parent. Sit and watch it with your kids and figure who figures out what the tricks are in each of the different things. First, be fun. Steve's going to go working on finding more recommendations from us. 00;42;15;26 - 00;42;34;23 Speaker 2 Steve, we have loved your recommendation. We have loved the fact that you've been sending us recommendations. We haven't loved all of your recommendations. We've tried sending your recommendations. Glen says it was it was mine. Own the room ish. It was worse because in own the room, you at least make connections with some of the people. The only that. 00;42;34;23 - 00;42;39;12 Speaker 2 Yeah, in in this one. Just, just just don't makes mistakes. 00;42;39;17 - 00;42;46;27 Speaker 4 Yeah, I. I started watching it too in about 20 minutes in I could not stay awake was how boring it was and I, so I just stopped. 00;42;47;11 - 00;43;13;01 Speaker 2 Yep. I should have. OK, next week we are going to take another trip into the vault. We are going to be doing a goofy movie. The original the original summer summer road trip movie. The Hill from the original summer road trip movie. It's the classic. And we're going to be looking out for the vault.

Now, I've. 00;43;20;16 - 00;43;21;25 Speaker 4 I've never seen it. 00;43;22;04 - 00;43;22;24 Speaker 5 Oh, yeah. 00;43;23;05 - 00;43;24;22 Speaker 1 And I don't believe it, Pete. 00;43;25;01 - 00;43;26;05 Speaker 2 And I don't remember. 00;43;26;06 - 00;43;28;28 Speaker 3 I do ever. You. You're working like a bird. 00;43;29;03 - 00;43;29;29 Speaker 4 I was on my toes. 00;43;30;06 - 00;43;30;16 Speaker 3 Now you're a. 00;43;31;10 - 00;43;40;05 Speaker 2 Little too beginning.
