1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
Everybody, action!

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,000
We're cold slither, you'll be joining us soon.

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,000
A band of bipers, play it up too.

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:18,000
With a lion fist and reptiles yes, we shall rule!

5
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,000
What is that idiot doing?

6
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:27,000
We've heard it before, we're not going to play the game no more.

7
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,000
You'll tell us what's right!

8
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,000
They are animals!

9
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:35,000
To enter a disco's power is strong!

10
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,000
Oh my goodness, we're going way over budget!

11
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,000
For barriers!

12
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,000
No, no, no!

13
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,000
Cat, cat, cat!

14
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,000
You fool! This is what I want!

15
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,000
Keep the film rolling!

16
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,000
We're time to run!

17
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:26,000
One minute, 10 second clip I made with God Gambit clips and the song Cold Slither.

18
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:35,000
Oh, you said God Gambit. I thought you said something not appropriate for our PGA-rated show.

19
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,000
I am always appropriate.

20
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,000
I just wanted to make sure.

21
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:45,000
Yeah, so the God Gambit clip with using Cold Slither as a song.

22
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:54,000
Anyways, so we did the Gambler last week and so this week you suggested we do Cold Slither and I got to thank you, man.

23
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,000
Me, too.

24
00:01:55,000 --> 00:02:02,000
Well, because I was disappointed that an episode called The Gambler didn't feature any Kenny Rogers music in it.

25
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:07,000
But second of all, these were written by the same person.

26
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:11,000
This was, oh God, I didn't write his name down this time.

27
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,000
Is it Charles Hill?

28
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,000
Michael Charles Hill.

29
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,000
I knew it was Charles Hill. I thought I knew it was a third name in there.

30
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Yeah, there's a little teaser for you guys also.

31
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:26,000
He's agreed to come talk to us this week and hopefully Ed can be there as well.

32
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:31,000
I had to try to schedule because Hill's on the West Coast. We are not on the West Coast.

33
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:41,000
So we're going to sit down this week and pick his brain about all kinds of things that I mean, I got to know what with this episode.

34
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,000
I got to know.

35
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,000
Yeah, same. I am on the South Coast.

36
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,000
They rarely talked about South Coast.

37
00:02:48,000 --> 00:03:00,000
But anyway, this was, this is G.I. Joe, real American hero season one episode 51.

38
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,000
Yep.

39
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,000
And I'm complaining about how long Transformers season two is.

40
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,000
And this is season one episode 51.

41
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,000
But I want to get this is C.

42
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:16,000
I want to talk about something here though, because and I'm not going to spend a lot of time on this, but I don't remember.

43
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:27,000
It's weird because this had some like later guys and guys that were like after like in my brain, the prime of G.I. Joe here and it.

44
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,000
I didn't think that this would have been season one.

45
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:31,000
I felt like those guys would have been season two.

46
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,000
But I guess it was just, I guess I just dumped the season that they made this thing.

47
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:41,000
And then as they were making the toys, I guess was, I guess is how the release schedule was.

48
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,000
I don't know.

49
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:50,000
The whole thing with those first like almost like their mini series is like, you know, the revenge of Cobra or the pyramid of darkness.

50
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,000
Those were like almost self-containing little mini series they put out.

51
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,000
But then they put them together as the whole beginning of season one.

52
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:04,000
And so kind of after those, those initial things happened, they started bringing in a lot of the other characters, which yeah, once again, I was looking at season one characters.

53
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,000
I'm going, who are these people?

54
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:12,000
Because there are so many characters that just show up and or don't you show up at all?

55
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,000
They made a figure of them and they just wanted the next one.

56
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:19,000
Yeah, there were a lot of characters in G.I. Joe.

57
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,000
But what was funny though is I went to look a couple of these guys up.

58
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,000
I found a really cool site.

59
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,000
I found a couple.

60
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:33,000
I found yojo.com, which is a very good site that I've been using for years to look up G.I. Joe stuff that is cool because you can go year by year.

61
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:37,000
And it's very cool to see like, oh, what all did I have from that series?

62
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,000
What all did I have from that series?

63
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,000
That was cool.

64
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,000
There was another one though that was just scans of the file cards.

65
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,000
Oh yeah.

66
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:51,000
And that was very handy for something that we're going to talk about later on in this episode.

67
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,000
Oh good, good good.

68
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,000
Yeah.

69
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:58,000
But man, this thing starts out though.

70
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,000
It just starts out.

71
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,000
It just starts.

72
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,000
It's okay.

73
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,000
Cobra has some trucks and they've got their own branding on the trucks.

74
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,000
Oh yeah.

75
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,000
This is real cool.

76
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,000
You got to like with a logo that cool.

77
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,000
I feel like you have to stencil and spray paint that thing everywhere.

78
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:20,000
It's like during the misfits, you carry this, you carry the screen print around with you when you go to the shows and you just screen print people's leather jackets.

79
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,000
That's how this, that's how Cobra works at this point, I guess.

80
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,000
Well, this is real cool.

81
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,000
And the thing is they have these, this whole thing where they get bases everywhere.

82
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:35,000
I feel like you roll up like on some, you go on some touristy destination in the, in the, you can have a desk.

83
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,000
You're probably going to walk up on a Cobra base.

84
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,000
They're all over the place and we're going to get, we're going to talk about that a little bit too.

85
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,000
Yeah.

86
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,000
Yeah.

87
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,000
So major blood is here.

88
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:44,000
Oh, I love major blood.

89
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,000
Major Sebastian blood.

90
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,000
You know, you know that it's his actual name.

91
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,000
I know his name.

92
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,000
It's actually works really well.

93
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:51,000
Like that.

94
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,000
Major Sebastian blood.

95
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,000
Yeah.

96
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:57,000
Who I remember from his file card, I remember he was a, had a pension for poetry.

97
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,000
He really liked to write poems.

98
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:06,000
And my best friend that I first got into GIO with back in the day,

99
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:10,000
my best friend, Ryan, who I usually listen to the show, I think.

100
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,000
So, Hey, Ryan, how's it going?

101
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,000
I know you were a huge, huge fan of major blood.

102
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:20,000
I remember he got that figure and, and he was just like, like enamored with this dude.

103
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:24,000
And he had, there was a little sample of his poetry on the, on the back of the card.

104
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,000
And he had that memorized.

105
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,000
He would all, every time we played with him, he would, he would say,

106
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:27,000
that thing.

107
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,000
And I don't remember what the poem was.

108
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:33,000
I didn't look that one up, but it, it, one of the, one of the lines was slap a fresh

109
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,000
clip in your Uzi, which I thought was very cool.

110
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:37,000
West coast representative.

111
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:42,000
He didn't, he didn't even come with an Uzi is the thing that I thought was funny about

112
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,000
major blood is that he had a, he had a bionic arm.

113
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,000
One of his arms was a bionic arm.

114
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:52,000
So the way they modeled that on the figure was, it was, it was a, it was a,

115
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:57,000
it was a straight like kind of curved arm and I always thought that was silly.

116
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,000
Cause if you're going to have a bionic arm,

117
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:02,000
I would think it would be more flexible than, than a, than a regular arm,

118
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,000
but that was cool.

119
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,000
But anyway.

120
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,000
So these Cobra dudes are unloading some stuff here at the, at the, at the,

121
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:08,000
the actual stage of the game.

122
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,000
And one of the things that we were trying to do was.

123
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,000
We were trying to have a bionic arm.

124
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:12,000
We were trying to have a bionic arm,

125
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,000
so we were trying to have a bionic arm that was on the figure,

126
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,000
but it was, it was a, it was something like a,

127
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,000
a, a, a, a bionic arm and a bionic arm.

128
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:26,920
These Cobra dudes are unloading some stuff here at the orders of Major Blood and Covergirl

129
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,380
comes rolling up in an off striker.

130
00:07:29,380 --> 00:07:31,480
Do you have the off striker when you were a kid?

131
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:36,000
I did not, but I also wanted to ask, man, how difficult is it to tell the difference

132
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,640
between Covergirl and Scarlett?

133
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:43,000
Well, Scarlett has long red hair and Covergirl has short brown hair, so it's not very difficult

134
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,000
at all to tell the difference.

135
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:45,480
All right, well, I'm sorry, man.

136
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,000
I guess I'm not as much of a Joe fan.

137
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,240
How hard is it to tell Sunstreaker from Sideswipe?

138
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,560
Well, yeah, those are primary colors, man.

139
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:54,560
Red and brown.

140
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:55,560
Red and...

141
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,560
Okay, if you look at it, if you look at it, I have red and...

142
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,680
How hard is it to tell you from me?

143
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:04,720
Oh, man, come on.

144
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:05,720
That's not fair.

145
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:06,720
Scarlett, okay.

146
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:07,720
They all look alike.

147
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:08,720
Okay, so Scarlett...

148
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:09,720
Covergirl, Covergirl.

149
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:10,720
Covergirl.

150
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:11,720
Covergirl was a model.

151
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:12,720
Did you know that?

152
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:13,720
That's why she got her name, Covergirl.

153
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:14,720
That's right.

154
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:19,720
Which is like, oh, that's some brand synergy they got going on there.

155
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:25,440
That's a brand of makeup back in the day.

156
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:32,040
She came with a tank called the Wolverine that came with a bazillion missiles that each

157
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:38,480
missile had two stickers, two Beware blast stickers that went on it.

158
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:43,680
It was awful because there were certain Joe vehicles that just came with massive amounts

159
00:08:43,680 --> 00:08:46,800
of stickers and they were a pain to put.

160
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,680
It was one of those Christmas morning things where your dad was just like, I've got to put

161
00:08:50,680 --> 00:08:58,480
74 no step stickers on this SkyStrikers wing flaps and I could just see the pain in my

162
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,800
dad's face like getting these things straight.

163
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:06,120
But I took that, the Wolverine, when I got the Wolverine, I went to say with my grandparents

164
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:10,520
and they had an old house that didn't have central heating in there.

165
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:16,120
And the heat in the house just made all those stickers just curl up and just kind of like

166
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:17,600
slide off of the thing.

167
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:21,360
So for years, I had sticky missiles on my.

168
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:22,360
Yeah.

169
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:23,360
Clear stickers.

170
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,600
It wasn't the Wolverine itself.

171
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,440
It was just the missiles because I think it had, I think it had 16 missiles.

172
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,880
I think it had like two racks of eight.

173
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,320
I think is how it is how it worked.

174
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:36,320
That was a cool toy.

175
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,520
But they had like all those little clear stickers right there like almost like cellophane with

176
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:40,520
glue.

177
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:41,520
Yeah.

178
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:42,520
Yeah.

179
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:43,520
Yeah.

180
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:44,520
They were clear.

181
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:45,520
They just have a text.

182
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:49,520
It was almost like a, they were almost like decals like, like decals, but they were stickers.

183
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:50,520
Yeah.

184
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,760
Anyway, she comes rolling up in the in the ostrich and the awestriker.

185
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,280
Did you say you had the awestriker?

186
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:56,280
I don't know.

187
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:57,800
Because I didn't have it either.

188
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:03,680
And it was one of those things that it was, that was in that wave of things where they

189
00:10:03,680 --> 00:10:07,840
were doing newer versions of things that had already come out like things that had the

190
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:09,600
same role as things that are already come out.

191
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,000
So I already had the vamp.

192
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,160
I had a Jeep already.

193
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:13,160
Oh yeah.

194
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:14,160
I did too.

195
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:15,160
Yeah.

196
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:16,160
So I didn't need like a dune buggy Jeep.

197
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:17,160
I already had a Jeep with laser cannon.

198
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:18,160
I didn't need another one.

199
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,880
Unfortunately, they use the awestriker all the time.

200
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,600
They use the awestriker all the time.

201
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,240
And I was real, I was real annoyed because they redid the vamp at some point too.

202
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,840
Because the vamp initially was, was a Jeep that had a laser cannon on the back.

203
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:36,160
They redid it as the vamp mark too that had a, had four missiles on the back of it.

204
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,320
And I hated that because I was like, what's that?

205
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:40,320
Wasn't it tan?

206
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:41,320
They did redo it in tan.

207
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,720
You had the tan when I know that.

208
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,440
And I was irritated because it's like you can shoot four times and then you're done

209
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:47,440
with a laser cannon.

210
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:48,440
You can just keep shooting forever.

211
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,320
Like, like, you know, that's not right.

212
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,600
You know, if you ever watch any of these episodes, they will fire all four missiles.

213
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,800
Although I know they will.

214
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,600
They just push up like their teeth.

215
00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,600
They can push right up.

216
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,080
So you get your pulse up.

217
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:05,360
They just, they just open fire on these poor Cobra guys.

218
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:06,360
They have no idea.

219
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:07,960
They're not going to check it.

220
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:08,960
See if anything is weird.

221
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:13,680
If it's like a false flag or if what they're doing, they're not going to arrest these guys

222
00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:14,680
or anything like that.

223
00:11:14,680 --> 00:11:19,160
They are coming in and blasting with these, with laser artillery.

224
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:24,880
I was so excited to see a gun hoe on the back, one of the all strikers on the gun, just

225
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:29,280
laying waste to these trailers, just with abandoned shooting.

226
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:34,400
It doesn't matter if he shot a building, a truck, a dude, a scorpion.

227
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:35,400
It doesn't matter.

228
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,480
He just wanted to unload.

229
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:42,640
And this is a gun hoe was a guy that I don't know if you do have that.

230
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:43,640
Was that a figure that you had?

231
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,200
I did not have the figure I knew of that.

232
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,520
I never had it.

233
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,040
He was a big buff Marine guy that just wore a vest.

234
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:50,920
All he wore was a vest and he had a marine.

235
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:51,920
Marine tattoo.

236
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,080
Yeah, he had a marine globe.

237
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,920
But the weapon he came with was just a grenade launcher.

238
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,160
It was just that's just how he rolled was just grenade launcher.

239
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,560
He didn't have like a rifle with a grenade launcher on it.

240
00:12:01,560 --> 00:12:03,920
He just just took grenades all day long.

241
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,640
So also later on, they released him in like dress blues.

242
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:07,640
I don't know if you saw that.

243
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,640
That was a very cool figure, actually.

244
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:10,640
Yeah.

245
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:11,640
Yeah.

246
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:12,640
Yeah, I like that one a lot.

247
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,240
So you had the dress things with the saber and the hat and all that stuff.

248
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,400
That was a very cool figure.

249
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:25,640
So but right after they start shooting from from these off strikers, his dune buggies,

250
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:32,240
basically, right then a sky striker comes out of the sky and just starts lobbing missiles

251
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,720
at this at this truck.

252
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:41,840
Like it like where what like that's an F 14, you know, the best part about that is it swoops

253
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,880
in like five feet from the ground.

254
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:45,960
It pulls like it's nothing.

255
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,960
I mean, the pilot's name is Ace.

256
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,920
He can if anybody can do this, he can do this.

257
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:51,920
Okay.

258
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,960
It's like it's like the the look the there's a G.I.G.

259
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,080
Deepsea diver deep six deep six.

260
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,240
If he was in a deep six, someone is going to be that guy.

261
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:01,240
He's going to take that guy.

262
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:02,240
Yeah.

263
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:08,640
So when I was a kid, we were playing in my backyard once and like the the the the sky

264
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,640
striker came with two seats that had plastic parachutes.

265
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,840
So you throw you take them out like ejector seats.

266
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,360
You throw them in the air and the gas parachute down.

267
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:23,560
So my friend, my friend just took one of them out with Ace in it and hurled it up and like

268
00:13:23,560 --> 00:13:28,680
the wind caught it and like drifted to the roof of my of my house.

269
00:13:28,680 --> 00:13:33,720
And so like Ace was on the roof of my house for like like probably like two years before

270
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:35,720
we got him down.

271
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,800
Yeah, I was real mad about that.

272
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:39,800
Thanks.

273
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:40,800
Thanks, Brian.

274
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:41,800
Thanks to you.

275
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,800
Conspiracy addled wing net.

276
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,800
It's all this war about Brian.

277
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:51,160
I've talked to my Brian on this.

278
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:52,160
So yeah, man.

279
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:55,000
So but also I'm really here for a firefly.

280
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,160
I don't see enough things with firefly.

281
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:01,240
Firefly is awesome because firefly is one of those guys that when you were a kid and

282
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:02,880
you got that figure, it was like, who is this?

283
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:03,880
What does he do?

284
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:04,880
He's a saboteur.

285
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:05,880
He was saboteur.

286
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:06,880
He was saboteur.

287
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,200
He looks like a gray ninja.

288
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:09,800
He looks like a gray camouflage ninja.

289
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:13,280
And like that was when you're I was a kid, I never seen gray camouflage.

290
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,080
How cool is gray camouflage?

291
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,320
He was yeah, he was real cool.

292
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:23,640
And also around the time that I got him, I also got the like Cobra had that the set was

293
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,200
called the Cobra night landing.

294
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,320
It was a like a zodiac raft.

295
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:29,320
I do remember that.

296
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:30,320
So that was really cool.

297
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:31,320
I really liked that.

298
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:32,320
Yeah.

299
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,000
And he paired up real cool with that because it was you go in like at night and he looked

300
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:39,240
like he was going to he was going to take care of some South American government in the

301
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:40,240
middle of the night.

302
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,800
You know, he's going to take care of since he's Cobra, I think he was probably going

303
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:47,560
to take care of like some North American.

304
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:53,040
He was going after SEAL Team six, who was going after some Central American despot, who

305
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,320
were going to put in a new democratic.

306
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:56,320
I got you.

307
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:57,320
I got you.

308
00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:58,320
It makes sense.

309
00:14:58,320 --> 00:14:59,320
Counter-counterterrorism.

310
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:00,880
He was but he was a real cool looking guy.

311
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:01,880
I like I liked him.

312
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,680
I was a huge fan of him when I was a kid because he looked he looked a lot like state guys

313
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:09,720
and Storm Shadow and Beachhead.

314
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:15,280
He looked like it was kind of commando guys with the ball of clavos and everything.

315
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:20,280
We get the edge of slugger pulls up, which is like an artillery piece on on six wheels

316
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:21,600
that kind of shows the ground.

317
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:25,760
And really in like impractical things, but it was just whatever.

318
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:26,760
Yeah.

319
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:31,760
So this is literally two minutes into this episode and there's three toys that I want

320
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:32,760
right now.

321
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:33,760
Like I.

322
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:34,760
Yeah.

323
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:36,800
I I I got to say the real quick now.

324
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:41,240
I whenever you would you get those little catalogs whenever you got the toy and they

325
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:45,440
have these really limited things like transforms the same way you could or you could send

326
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,040
away these toys.

327
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:48,560
They always have like the G.I.

328
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,520
Joe and Cobra gliders.

329
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:55,200
Like the way that they also I maybe this is like a Mandela effect of me.

330
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:59,560
I think they had like Cobra trucks like, you know, covered trucks.

331
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,880
It might be a Mandela effect.

332
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:03,080
There wasn't a Cobra one.

333
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,640
I think there may have been one later on that was a like a recolor of the G.I.

334
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,240
Joe and because they did a lot of that later on.

335
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,480
There was the the G.I.

336
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:18,960
Joe, the like the APC, the armored personnel carrier that it was like a big like a doos

337
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:22,840
and a half almost or it was amphibious personnel carrier.

338
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:24,840
It actually floated in the water.

339
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,440
Yeah, the cover would come off and it had seats in it.

340
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:32,160
And then what was cool is the bumper on the back pulled out and you can use like a carrying

341
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:33,160
case.

342
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:34,160
So nice.

343
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:35,160
If your G.I.

344
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,480
Joe's receipt belt that in like they should have been and everything was sealed up right.

345
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:38,880
You could just pick up and carry all your G.I.

346
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:39,880
Joe's are real American.

347
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:40,880
Yeah, a real American hero.

348
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:41,880
We use a seat belt.

349
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:43,400
So yeah, he should be strapped in.

350
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:44,400
Yeah.

351
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:45,400
Yeah.

352
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:46,400
Yeah.

353
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:47,400
Ralph Nader, a real American hero.

354
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:54,120
So they like they go in the layways sell the covers and they go in there, they read the

355
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,560
base and they find this treasure room.

356
00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:01,640
They find smogs horde here and there is a freaking Mona Lisa.

357
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,160
Covers got the Mona Lisa in there.

358
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,560
Sitting in some desert bags.

359
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:11,560
They've got some bags with with like money symbols on them, which did you know that Gene

360
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:15,040
Simmons from KISS owns the trademark on the bag of money?

361
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,720
Okay, look, first of all, no, I did not.

362
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,120
And second of all, you totally see that.

363
00:17:19,120 --> 00:17:21,960
You'd be like, you can't use that without paying him money.

364
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:22,960
That's how he stays afloat.

365
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:23,960
That's how he stays.

366
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:24,960
That's how he stays rich.

367
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:26,960
The Scroogeby duck know they hasn't.

368
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:27,960
Man, I don't know.

369
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:28,960
Yeah, I don't know, man.

370
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:29,960
Okay, not okay at all.

371
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,200
But yeah, they they seize all this stuff, man.

372
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:37,280
And so the next scene, this is so, oh my God, this is so good.

373
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,800
So happy with this next.

374
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,240
Curve of Commander is meeting with Tomax and Zemot.

375
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:43,240
Yes.

376
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:47,960
So Transformers fans, if you're not familiar with Tomax and Zemot, these are two twins.

377
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:51,560
You can only tell them apart because one parts their hair on one side, one parts their hair

378
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:52,560
on the other side.

379
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,400
And also one has a scar on the soles.

380
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:55,400
Yeah.

381
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,800
But they dress, they look they look.

382
00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:58,800
All right.

383
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,560
Now this is I'm hoping I'll push anyone out for this and that they look like Reaganites.

384
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:08,120
They are wearing the same blue sport coat and khaki slacks and red tie.

385
00:18:08,120 --> 00:18:09,120
Exactly the same.

386
00:18:09,120 --> 00:18:13,120
And they definitely know these guys are definitely 80s corporate raider types.

387
00:18:13,120 --> 00:18:14,120
Yeah.

388
00:18:14,120 --> 00:18:19,040
They own a thing called extensive enterprises, which is so much is great.

389
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:24,800
And what was funny is years ago, years and years like in like 1997 or something like

390
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:25,800
that.

391
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:32,320
When I was registering my copy of Windows, it was like asking me for my company name

392
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:37,600
and I put extensive enterprises in there and I'm I migrated my data so often that that

393
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:42,040
carried over like well into like Windows XP.

394
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:49,320
Probably that the 2005 I had things registered under under extensive enterprises.

395
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:53,600
But yeah, so I guess what you find out here and this is one of those things that I think

396
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:59,240
the seed of this idea was probably from the comic books because Larry Hama that we talked

397
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:04,320
about before Larry Hama wrote the comics and he was kind of the the lower master of GI

398
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:05,320
Joe.

399
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:06,320
Yeah.

400
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,120
And I think that this is an idea that probably came from him.

401
00:19:08,120 --> 00:19:12,400
I would really like to talk to to.

402
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:13,560
Oh my God, I don't have that.

403
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:14,720
I don't have Charles Hill.

404
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:15,720
Yes.

405
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:16,720
Michael Charles Hill.

406
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:21,200
So I would very much like to talk to him about this because I wonder if it's one of

407
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,840
those things where it's like a, you know, there was like a GI Joe Bible that Hama had

408
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,320
that they they just kind of pulled ideas from and wrote this kind of stuff.

409
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:32,560
But I get what it's what you kind of find out here and I don't know if this ever was

410
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:38,080
ever really touched on before was that I guess on some level extensive enterprise.

411
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:44,600
The enterprise's funds, Cobra, which is well, I kind of get like they're the the Enron of

412
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:45,600
Cobra.

413
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:49,400
They're like they're like have they have securities and hedge funds built with that's

414
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:54,400
like supporting Cobra and like a, you know, Cobra commander does these heists and we don't

415
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:55,880
see the ones he actually gets away with.

416
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:56,880
We assume that G.I.

417
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:57,880
Joe stops them all.

418
00:19:57,880 --> 00:19:58,880
You can't stop them all.

419
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:03,640
So I'm sure they're a heist and those those treasure hordes like smogs horde that he had

420
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,280
there in the desert.

421
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:09,800
Probably what they put those up for collateral for securities and basically fund the operation.

422
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:10,800
Yeah.

423
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:16,920
Well, also in the comics, though, also they touch on the fact that Cobra commander was

424
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,720
basically an Amway salesman.

425
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,200
He was a multi-level marketer.

426
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,680
I forget that all the time he was.

427
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:30,560
Yeah, that's where the money from Cobra came from was that he was the top of the pyramid

428
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:38,040
and he started somehow got he transferred over to terrorism, but so that is one of the weirdest

429
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:39,680
mundane things.

430
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:43,920
God, I saw weird and cool.

431
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:44,920
The G.I.

432
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,280
Joe lore is so amazing in that way.

433
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,440
Well, I mean, you know, we talk on Transformers a lot.

434
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:57,040
We talk about real world factors creeping into the episodes and and it's I don't know

435
00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:04,520
how prevalent it is these days, but I mean, like, Amway was kind of a boogeyman around

436
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:05,520
this time.

437
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:06,520
Oh, yeah.

438
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:07,520
And so that kind of makes sense.

439
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:11,440
But I'm going to I'm going to tell I'll tell my my Amway story at the end here because

440
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,520
I'm afraid to derail this.

441
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:18,560
But but so Tomax and Zayma tell Cobra commander that he's broke.

442
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,680
Cobra is broke and out of business.

443
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:27,000
And because all of the Cobra troopers are filing for unemployment in their universe,

444
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,880
uniforms, do we cut to the unemployment line?

445
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:31,520
They're all in their uniforms.

446
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,960
That's the best thing.

447
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,720
They're all in the Cobra uniforms and a line with a paper for unemployment.

448
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,360
And they're all they're all they all have like like the mass of the Cobra uniform is

449
00:21:41,360 --> 00:21:45,680
like a German like steel helmet with a like with a ninja mask.

450
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:49,120
And so it's like dozens of these guys.

451
00:21:49,120 --> 00:21:56,880
And like you guys are known terrorists to the point that the US government has a special

452
00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:00,200
task force just to kill you guys.

453
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:06,880
Look, they're profiteers are at risk here because of the risky investments from existing

454
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,240
enterprises on behalf of Cobra.

455
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:10,760
So they have to like an employment.

456
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,160
Oh, my God, this is great.

457
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:14,240
So yeah, this is this is awesome.

458
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,240
So yeah, Cobra commanders is broke.

459
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:17,680
Cobra is broke and out of business.

460
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:23,720
And so it's it's implied within the context of the next scenes, it's implied that Gio

461
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:24,720
is not bored.

462
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,600
They have nothing to do anymore because they're.

463
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:32,760
So we first we cut to some Gio is watching football, which is it's it's if you look at

464
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,720
the uniforms, it's the Steelers versus the 49ers.

465
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:36,720
Yep.

466
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,920
I saw I saw actually the point of Anders versus the Raiders.

467
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:40,920
That's what I meant.

468
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:41,920
That's what I meant.

469
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:43,320
Yeah, I type Steelers.

470
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:44,720
I meant I meant the Raiders.

471
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,440
Yeah, I'm right there with you.

472
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:54,960
So the QB here is from the from the Steelers or from the Raiders is number 13, which is

473
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:59,400
Hunter Renfrew's number right now or was until he got traded like a couple of weeks

474
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:00,400
ago.

475
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:08,000
But so on on Gio, he throws an interception, which is very on very great for him.

476
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:13,680
But he threw it to number 10, number 10 from the 49ers picked him off, which that is that

477
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:14,880
is a quarterbacks number.

478
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:15,880
Yeah, it is.

479
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:16,960
I really didn't think about that.

480
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:17,960
You're right.

481
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:18,960
Yeah.

482
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:19,960
So so I guess the QB just jump.

483
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:23,120
I guess it was it would have been Joe Montana just ran on the field.

484
00:23:23,120 --> 00:23:24,120
He wasn't number.

485
00:23:24,120 --> 00:23:26,360
I mean, I don't know if it was number 10, but I guess he just ran on the field and picked

486
00:23:26,360 --> 00:23:29,400
him off and ran it back for a free safety.

487
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:33,280
What what number area are they free?

488
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,360
I mean, defense are normally higher.

489
00:23:35,360 --> 00:23:36,360
Not our normal.

490
00:23:36,360 --> 00:23:37,360
They are.

491
00:23:37,360 --> 00:23:39,760
I'm trying to think free safeties.

492
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:44,000
I can't remember, but I do not mean like like one through 10 or two are typically going

493
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:45,000
to be typically typically.

494
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:49,720
I know they changed it a lot lately, but so.

495
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,480
Yeah, but they are.

496
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,200
They are like watching football and the Cobra interrupts the broadcast.

497
00:23:56,200 --> 00:24:00,000
Yeah, like what?

498
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,000
Like a good salesman.

499
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,760
He's like, I'm going to take 60 seconds during the football game.

500
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,840
Yeah, this was cool.

501
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:10,920
And he's just some empty promises.

502
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,320
Like it's the same stuff that Cobra usually puts out.

503
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:17,960
So G.I. Joe's like, Duke's like, man, I guess we just got to I guess we just got to go.

504
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,280
I guess we got to go check these guys out.

505
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:21,280
Oh yeah.

506
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:26,240
They find this Cobra, they fly somewhere and they find this Cobra for Chris.

507
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:32,440
And I'm just saying that maybe if Cobra didn't spend so much money on these giant snake statues

508
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,840
on every fortress they have, they may still be solvent.

509
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:38,560
Look, this branding, you got to have branding.

510
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,040
They paint their Cobra head on everything.

511
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:43,040
I know you got to have branding.

512
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,360
These guys, it's giant sculptures of big snakehead.

513
00:24:45,360 --> 00:24:46,600
These massive snakeheads.

514
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,800
And I'm just like, Tom Axon's, they might need to audit.

515
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:54,400
We need the books here because somebody's cooking the books.

516
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:56,240
Destro's making too much money off this.

517
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:57,240
He's pocketing all this money.

518
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:58,240
Oh yeah, man.

519
00:24:58,240 --> 00:24:59,240
He's the arm salesman.

520
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,200
He's definitely going to be making his cut of this.

521
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,040
Oh, he will come in later anyways.

522
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:05,040
He will come in later.

523
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:06,880
So in here we see the gliders.

524
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:10,440
We see Duke and somebody else on these gliders.

525
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:15,320
I remember these gliders and these were of all the G.I. Joe toys, these were possibly

526
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,320
the worst.

527
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,320
Because they were just, they were this flimsy foam.

528
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:24,600
They were supposed to be where it was a piece of plastic that had a hole for the dude would

529
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,320
clamp onto it sort of.

530
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:32,680
And that plastic thing clipped onto this giant foam glider, which you would throw.

531
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:36,920
You would, in real life, you would actually throw it and it would glide, which was awesome.

532
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:37,920
It was awesome.

533
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:38,920
It kind of worked.

534
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:40,160
45 seconds.

535
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:45,440
It was amazing until it hit the tree or you picked it up by the wing and the foam just

536
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:46,440
snagged.

537
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,120
Because it was like paper thin foam.

538
00:25:48,120 --> 00:25:55,640
It was like, you know, this, this, when you were younger, they had those big, like styrofoam

539
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:57,640
planes with you.

540
00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:58,640
Yeah.

541
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,680
You go out there and they're like this wide, you throw them and they're like, they do cool

542
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,640
loops and it hit a tree and like, oh, we can come off.

543
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,120
And the wing is coming right off.

544
00:26:06,120 --> 00:26:07,120
Yeah.

545
00:26:07,120 --> 00:26:08,120
Yeah.

546
00:26:08,120 --> 00:26:09,120
I had one of those.

547
00:26:09,120 --> 00:26:10,120
Yeah.

548
00:26:10,120 --> 00:26:16,840
But yeah, but I remember around the time that glider came out, it was, it was my friend

549
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,720
Ryan, once again, let's talk about Ryan.

550
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:25,280
It was his birthday and my dad and I went to the store to get him a present.

551
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,120
And I was like, that can we get him a GI Joe thing?

552
00:26:27,120 --> 00:26:28,120
And he's like, yeah.

553
00:26:28,120 --> 00:26:29,920
And he's like, well, he's like, you can get him something.

554
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:33,040
You can get yourself something small if you want to.

555
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,360
And I was like, maybe I'll get a figure or something like that.

556
00:26:36,360 --> 00:26:39,040
But I couldn't find a figure I didn't have.

557
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:43,520
So but they had, they had a really cool thing where they, they had like a blister pack that

558
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:44,920
just had guns and backpacks.

559
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:45,920
Oh, I love those things.

560
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:46,920
Yeah.

561
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:47,920
The weapons accessory pack.

562
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:48,920
And I was like, well, dad, can I get this?

563
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:50,480
And he's like, yeah.

564
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:55,320
And so like, I got that and I got, and I got Ryan the glider for his birthday that year.

565
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:59,080
And, and I was like, while I was, while we were wrapping up, I was like, man, I kind

566
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,160
of want to keep the glider for myself, man.

567
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:05,120
I'm kind of, I was kind of, but now I'm like, I'm like, oh, I gave, I gave Ryan the glider.

568
00:27:05,120 --> 00:27:08,600
And now I'm like, I'm like, oh man, I, I ended up with a better toy.

569
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,560
I didn't like, I ended up with a way better toy.

570
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:15,880
So hey, Ryan, sorry about, I got the glider back in 1984.

571
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:19,200
And we had a really good time playing with that.

572
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:20,200
For five minutes.

573
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:21,200
Yeah.

574
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:22,200
Cool.

575
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:23,200
Cool.

576
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:24,200
Yeah.

577
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,240
So we go, they hit the base.

578
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:35,480
So the line of the base and they are, they are, they, they, oh God, I think we dreamt

579
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:36,480
ahead a little.

580
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:37,480
I don't know.

581
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:38,480
Maybe we didn't.

582
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:39,480
Yeah.

583
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:44,360
They find out this Thomas and Zaymon are foreclosing on and auctioning off this Cobra base.

584
00:27:44,360 --> 00:27:50,800
They are leading around like the worst terrorist country, like leaders around this Cobra base

585
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:52,160
and this mountain.

586
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:53,160
Like it's, it's fine.

587
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:58,440
Like, oh, we have foreclosing on and they, the other guy, you know, the one ends up like

588
00:27:58,440 --> 00:27:59,440
on other assets.

589
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:04,240
We are trying to find a way to make us not, you know, basically make it solvent.

590
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,160
Like they're trying to reclaim their assets.

591
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:12,320
They've got like the spoof of, of like, like the guy that's not the Ayatollah Khomeini.

592
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:16,840
There's, there's basically not every bad guy from like the news in 1994 here.

593
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,080
There's like not, uh, Momar Gaddafi.

594
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:25,800
There's like, you know, like, uh, not the Shah and, uh, it was, uh, the green military

595
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,520
uniform with a cigar, you know, then sunglasses.

596
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:29,520
Oh yeah.

597
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,960
It was not, um, uh, Fidel Castro was, uh, was hanging out there.

598
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,360
So this was, this was real cool.

599
00:28:34,360 --> 00:28:36,400
They're leading around like a, like a tour.

600
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:40,880
Like, basically, they're like real estate agents selling this, uh, along this house

601
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:41,880
over here.

602
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:46,640
You'll see the extensive kitchens and, uh, and, uh, yeah, they, they find a, uh, a

603
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:51,760
hanger with a bunch of his tanks and, uh, like, like cardboard cutouts of, of Cobra

604
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:52,760
troops.

605
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,640
And I know this was really like, Duke was real mad.

606
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:58,280
And he just like, he pushed, he pushed them over and made like the Domino, a Domino's

607
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:02,640
fall, but, um, but ah, so we figured we'll find out what's going on here.

608
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:03,640
Oh, good.

609
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:04,640
Okay.

610
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:09,280
So we have Cobra commander and firefly and they're going to a place called Stinky's

611
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:14,920
Billiards Emporium, um, they, uh, they also are like walking through a bunch of homeless

612
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:20,720
guys, like warming their hands off over trash cans in complete disguise with like, like

613
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:22,440
he colored trench coats.

614
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:23,440
Okay.

615
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:24,440
All right.

616
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:25,440
So I'm, all right.

617
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,280
I'm, I'm, I'm, I can talk about this.

618
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:28,280
Okay.

619
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:29,280
Please.

620
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:34,040
Um, so friend of the show, J who, um, back in the day, uh, you, he used to work in a

621
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,040
comic book shop back in the day.

622
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:41,640
And, uh, he and his friends there, cause like back in this, in like old fantastic four comics,

623
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:45,800
um, the thing would often wear this disguise where he would have like on like a, like a

624
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:50,400
tan trench coat and he'd put on a hat and some sunglasses, which is ridiculous, which

625
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:53,720
is absolutely ridiculous because he's, the thing is massive.

626
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,600
The thing that, you know, the thing was like two tons or something like that.

627
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:58,440
And he's, he's just a gargantuan man.

628
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:02,840
So like you see like a dude as wide as a Volkswagen wearing a trench coat and you're

629
00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:04,440
like, I wonder who, I wonder who that is.

630
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:09,840
Um, Raphael from Ninja Turtles favored this also.

631
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:18,680
Um, but, uh, so there was the, ended up, there ended up being a slang term for it for, for

632
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:19,920
him wearing this.

633
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:24,520
And, uh, when in the nineties, there were tons of Marvel comics action figures.

634
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:28,360
They made just millions of these different figures and they were, they were always on

635
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:29,880
clearance at KB toys.

636
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:33,760
They were, you could get them all for like 2.99 back then.

637
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:42,280
And, uh, so they made this and he, he called him porno going thing in the, in the trench

638
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:48,840
coat and so, and that is just the slang of, of, of what my circle of friends has called

639
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,240
that thing figure with a trench coat on.

640
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:56,040
Cause it's like he'd go into a, to a, a, an adult theater.

641
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:59,040
And so when I saw these guys, it was like two of them.

642
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,000
That was exactly what I thought of was.

643
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,560
They're going to Stinky's billiards hall.

644
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:07,080
So, um, they'll move the guys out.

645
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:10,360
There's like, oh, I see the aliens have landed or something like that.

646
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:11,360
Yeah.

647
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:16,520
And, um, and so, but I deduced that they have to be in New Orleans because of something

648
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:17,520
that happens in a minute.

649
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,920
They have, they're probably in New Orleans right here.

650
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:25,520
And I'm like, I'm like, a dude walk around in a silver mask with sunglasses on it over

651
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:31,320
it wearing a trench coat and a hat is probably the most normal thing you'd see in this neighborhood

652
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:32,320
in New Orleans.

653
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:33,320
Um, yeah.

654
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,720
So, yeah, they go into a Stinky's billiards hall.

655
00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,560
They go right to the back door and knock on it.

656
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:44,640
And this guy pulls up and does a little keyhole, you know, things and it recognizes them like,

657
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,200
well, obviously it's come on in guys.

658
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:49,160
It's waiting for you.

659
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:50,160
He's done business here before.

660
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:53,120
This is, this is how it does business apparently.

661
00:31:53,120 --> 00:32:05,120
So yeah, they go in this room and the best, best stereotype of a gangster who is a little

662
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:06,120
person.

663
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,000
He's, he's a dwarf or a midget little person.

664
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,120
I guess it's a little tuition will say that he is, he is very small.

665
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:17,080
He's wearing a white beater and a hat and he doesn't know real words.

666
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:18,080
And he calls.

667
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:23,360
So he has a briefcase full of money and he calls it soft principles.

668
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:28,560
It was like, is that a word that I don't know?

669
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:30,680
Is that like, it might be, it might be.

670
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:31,680
I don't know.

671
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:32,680
I didn't, I didn't want to look it up.

672
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:33,680
I just thought it was, I thought it was a funny term.

673
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:39,400
I mean, there was a whole thing at the beginning is like, so how can I be of abstinence to

674
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:40,400
use?

675
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:41,400
Yeah.

676
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:42,400
I think you mean assistance.

677
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,400
I said what I said.

678
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,680
This was great.

679
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:52,040
I was trying to be specializable, not so short.

680
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,840
So he's basically, I guess he's fronting a corporate commander some money, but as part

681
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,000
of the deal, he wants to see corporate commanders.

682
00:32:58,000 --> 00:32:59,840
He wants to take the mask off.

683
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:00,840
Kill me your face.

684
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:02,640
You don't see the face.

685
00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,120
And I mean, he's wearing the full battle mask here.

686
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:08,360
I guess this is before he started, they started going into the hood.

687
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:09,360
Like I don't, I don't know.

688
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:13,640
Cause the hood I think would be more comfortable than, uh, than wearing that battle mask around.

689
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:14,640
But he wears that later.

690
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:15,640
Anyways.

691
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:16,640
Yeah, you're right.

692
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:17,640
He does.

693
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:18,640
Yeah.

694
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,680
So he's like, I want to see your face.

695
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:25,920
He gives him, by the way, $100,000 at a 400% interest rate.

696
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:31,160
Michael Charlisle, you love exorbitant rates from gangsters.

697
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:32,160
They did the same thing.

698
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:33,160
Game one.

699
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:34,160
He does.

700
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:35,160
He does.

701
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:36,160
He absolutely.

702
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:37,160
I will front you this money if I expect 400%.

703
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:38,160
That's a lot.

704
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:42,720
That's like, dude, that was like the interest I was paying on my car when I was, when my

705
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,200
credit was wrecked.

706
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:49,840
Um, uh, so they leave and the sign now says, uh, Snickie.

707
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:50,840
Stenickie.

708
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:51,840
That's all the same thing.

709
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:52,840
Yeah.

710
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:53,840
They messed up.

711
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,280
It's like AI art made a sign on the outside.

712
00:33:56,280 --> 00:34:00,200
It's Stenickies and the Cobra hovercraft.

713
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:01,200
Not a hovercraft.

714
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:02,200
Not a hovercraft.

715
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:03,200
It's a, uh, it's a hydrofoil.

716
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:04,200
Not a hydrofoil.

717
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:05,200
It's like a, it doesn't hover.

718
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:06,200
It's like a fan boat.

719
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:07,200
Oh, you're right.

720
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:08,200
You're right.

721
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:09,200
It's like a swamp boat.

722
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:10,200
It's, uh, the boardy eel, wasn't it?

723
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:11,200
It's the water moccasin.

724
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:12,200
Water moccasin.

725
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:13,200
Thank you.

726
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:17,120
Uh, and so now we're up to yet another toy that I just really want to buy.

727
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:18,120
This is another one that I have.

728
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:19,120
That was a cool one.

729
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:20,120
I did too.

730
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,120
Loved, loved, loved this thing.

731
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:23,720
This was, uh, one of the coolest.

732
00:34:23,720 --> 00:34:29,000
Cause this was, there was that era, like the second or third wave of GIGO when, um, uh,

733
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:33,040
Cobra and GIGO were getting the same type of thing, but the Cobra was always smaller,

734
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,200
but it was always like a little bit better.

735
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,040
It was always like cooler when you think about it.

736
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:42,520
Like, so like, um, usually like, cause like there was the GIGO hovercraft, which was,

737
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:43,520
which was massive.

738
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,720
That thing was huge, but, um, it was hard to play with it because it was so big.

739
00:34:46,720 --> 00:34:49,240
It was, I had to paint my tub all the time.

740
00:34:49,240 --> 00:34:50,240
So did I.

741
00:34:50,240 --> 00:34:51,240
And, um, my screws rusted.

742
00:34:51,240 --> 00:34:54,360
I remember my grandma being a real concern that the screws were going to rust and fall

743
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:55,360
apart.

744
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:59,560
But, um, uh, but now the, the water moccasin was way easier to play with.

745
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:00,560
You could do more.

746
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:01,800
You can do more with it.

747
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:06,280
Um, so like the, the sky striker and the rattler came out at the same time and those

748
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:07,880
were both extremely cool toys.

749
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,400
And I can't say one's better than the other.

750
00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:11,640
Um, I had the sky striker.

751
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:12,640
I loved it.

752
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:13,640
Yeah.

753
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:14,640
There's that lever on the top.

754
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:15,640
He pulled back.

755
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:16,640
That means to come out.

756
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:17,640
Yeah.

757
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:18,640
Yeah.

758
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:19,640
It was, you know, it's an amazing toy.

759
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:21,760
Um, I have a friend that collects just those.

760
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:23,000
He doesn't collect any other GIGO.

761
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:24,000
He just collects.

762
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,000
Sky striker.

763
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:26,000
He's got like four of them.

764
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:27,000
Yeah.

765
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,000
Uh, yeah, that was it.

766
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:30,800
That was a fantastic thing.

767
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:35,600
So, um, just through his down in the, um, he's in the, um, the water moccasin waiting

768
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:36,600
for them to show up.

769
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:40,280
But like, you know, I guess he's trying to secure his, his income also.

770
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,280
Yeah.

771
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:43,440
He's got the, and he's got the bareness with him.

772
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:44,440
Yeah.

773
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:48,360
The lady, the bareness, um, who I don't know what she was a bareness of.

774
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:53,240
What was, well, maybe she has a little castle where they all dress up and animal masks like

775
00:35:53,240 --> 00:35:54,240
Destro does.

776
00:35:54,240 --> 00:35:55,240
Who?

777
00:35:55,240 --> 00:35:56,240
Yeah.

778
00:35:56,240 --> 00:35:57,240
Destro canonical.

779
00:35:57,240 --> 00:36:00,000
See, that was what was weird about Destro is they did that orange in episode of Destro.

780
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,400
And, um, so Destro just wears a steel mask.

781
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:03,400
Yeah.

782
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:04,800
He's like in the iron mask essentially.

783
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:05,800
Yeah.

784
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:09,160
It's just, yeah, just like a metal mask, but he goes to like the like castle Destro.

785
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,600
Like he's part of this like Scottish clan or whatever, even though he has no accent,

786
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,320
he has no Scottish accent and all.

787
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:18,120
Um, but the whole clan like where he's like animal masks and it's like, oh, that's the

788
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:19,120
tradition.

789
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:20,120
We all wear a mat.

790
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:21,120
We all wear animal masks.

791
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:22,120
Well, why doesn't he have an end?

792
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:23,120
He's special.

793
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:24,120
He's a metal castle.

794
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:25,120
I don't know.

795
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:26,120
I don't know.

796
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:35,760
Um, he's also apparently related to Lady J. That, um, but yeah, man, um, so he's like,

797
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:39,360
this looks suspiciously like the way the Zartans layer.

798
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:46,160
I'm like, there is, there is so much like little sniping back and forth like in like

799
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:50,720
Kirk Cermanis like, my, my Destro, you're in, tell just succeeded only by your good

800
00:36:50,720 --> 00:36:51,720
looks.

801
00:36:51,720 --> 00:36:52,720
Oh man.

802
00:36:52,720 --> 00:36:57,240
And the little, the little mingrel stuff back forth with them.

803
00:36:57,240 --> 00:37:00,160
They just hate, they just hate each other.

804
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:01,160
Oh yeah.

805
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:07,320
Um, so I noticed here, uh, having seen the bareness in like two different scenes now

806
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:11,320
that they are drawing her like she has bells palsy this entire time.

807
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:15,720
Her face is half her face is constantly melting in this, uh, in this one.

808
00:37:15,720 --> 00:37:21,240
Um, so, as our 10, as our 10s, uh, as our 10s, uh, as our 10s, like a super cool dude

809
00:37:21,240 --> 00:37:22,240
though, man.

810
00:37:22,240 --> 00:37:23,240
Oh yeah.

811
00:37:23,240 --> 00:37:25,960
This dude is like a ninja that lives in a swamp and he's got a bunch of these like heavy

812
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:29,880
metal dudes that just like, like work for him and he's got like illusions everywhere.

813
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:31,000
You can change colors.

814
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:32,000
This guy is awesome.

815
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:38,480
And that was an action figure that, that back in the day, like, like the Zartan like actually

816
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:39,480
like changed color.

817
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:40,480
He was a master of the sky.

818
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:41,480
That's the whole thing.

819
00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:46,040
So like, um, if you put him out in the sun, he would turn blue.

820
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:50,760
And I think it was, it's just that center thing, but that, you know, that toy effect

821
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,640
that, you know, like, if you get cold water on this thing, it turns this color.

822
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,040
If you get it, it turns back.

823
00:37:55,040 --> 00:38:01,000
Um, so when we were kids though, we were probably like eight or nine when this, uh, when this

824
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:04,160
came out, I guess, and like, how did they, how did they do that?

825
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,720
It's a man like, well, like, what's the, how does this work?

826
00:38:06,720 --> 00:38:11,960
Um, so a friend of mine was like, Oh, I know how they do it as chemicals.

827
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:13,840
And we're like, Oh, of course.

828
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:15,520
I want to think of, of it that it was chemicals.

829
00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:18,080
And he's like, yeah, man, you can taste it and taste the chemicals.

830
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,520
Cause he tastes different than a normal GI Joe.

831
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:25,520
And so there was a rash of all of my friend circle and licking everyone, lick their Zartan

832
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:26,520
and you all go mono.

833
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:31,360
And, um, we're like our own Zartan, we didn't lick one Zartan.

834
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:35,920
He didn't say the part that I'm just, I'm a circle.

835
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:40,160
No, I said we licked our Zartans, plural Zartan.

836
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:44,160
It's not like one, the commutals are told your money together had one Zartan to lick.

837
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:45,160
I don't know, man.

838
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:48,720
Uh, also, you couldn't buy him by himself.

839
00:38:48,720 --> 00:38:51,200
He only came with the swamp, the swamp buggy.

840
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:54,120
He was also the change colors.

841
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:55,120
Also change colors.

842
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:56,120
Yeah.

843
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:57,120
Yeah.

844
00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:58,120
Really cool toy.

845
00:38:58,120 --> 00:38:59,120
I had that myself.

846
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,520
I had that weird chest armor that was clear.

847
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,520
But if he was wearing that, he wouldn't, it would block the UV out.

848
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:06,800
So he wouldn't change colors there.

849
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:10,360
If he was, if he was wearing that, it was like a crop top though.

850
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:11,360
Remember like it was big.

851
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:12,720
Like you would see it like a belly.

852
00:39:12,720 --> 00:39:14,720
Oh, you just belly would stick out of it.

853
00:39:14,720 --> 00:39:15,720
He did.

854
00:39:15,720 --> 00:39:17,240
That was probably dudes could do that in the 80s.

855
00:39:17,240 --> 00:39:18,880
You don't remember.

856
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:19,880
Yeah, yeah.

857
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:20,880
Actually, you're right.

858
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:21,880
You're right.

859
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,280
Like Eddie Murphy, like, like to wear a crop top back in the day.

860
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:31,480
So, uh, Kerber commander gives Zartan a bunch of money and they have a plan.

861
00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:34,080
They're gonna, they somehow somewhere they've made some music.

862
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:38,680
I don't know where this music came from, but yeah, Destra's made a rock roll subliminal

863
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:39,680
program.

864
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:40,680
Yeah.

865
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:41,680
And they're going to pay the dread knocks.

866
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:45,000
The dread knocks are these guys that look like they look like roadies or bikers from

867
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:46,000
the 70s.

868
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,280
Ripper, Cutter and Torch.

869
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:49,280
Right.

870
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:50,880
Uh, Ripper, a buzzer.

871
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:51,880
Buzzer.

872
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:52,880
Yeah.

873
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:54,880
Buzzer had the, uh, had the saw.

874
00:39:54,880 --> 00:40:01,360
He had, um, Ripper had like a gun with a big bayonet on it and Torch had had a, you

875
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:04,120
know, and they looked like they looked like like dirtback bikers.

876
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:05,120
These guys were awesome.

877
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:09,440
They look like they belong on, um, they're actually figures for, um, like the road warrior,

878
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:10,440
like the gang.

879
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:14,440
Yeah, they're very, yeah, they're very, uh, very road warrior.

880
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:19,040
And they're going to pay these guys $5 an hour to lips.

881
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:20,040
$5.

882
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:23,680
And they're excited about it.

883
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,160
What was our tan paying?

884
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:27,040
Man, look, I don't know.

885
00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:31,600
I know that when I first got a job in 1990, I was making four 25 an hour.

886
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:32,960
These guys are getting premium rates.

887
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:36,280
This, well, this was twice minimum wage in, in this year.

888
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:40,160
So I mean, like it's, it's decent, but I'm, but I'm still like, you guys are like international

889
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:41,160
terrorists, man.

890
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:44,720
Like, like how much, like what's the, how much were those corporate guys making that

891
00:40:44,720 --> 00:40:46,320
are, that are in the unemployment line?

892
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:47,320
What's their, what was their salary?

893
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:48,920
Well, they didn't have to worry about other clothing.

894
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:53,480
They just wore their uniforms that are apparently so, well, I mean, how much rent did that swamp

895
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,200
house cost that the, uh, the dreadlocks lived in?

896
00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:57,200
Oh, they did that.

897
00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:58,200
It costed a rent.

898
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:00,160
Dude, it had computers in it.

899
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,320
Did you see when they hit, there was like an illusion and it had like the like computers

900
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:04,320
and stuff in it.

901
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:06,320
I'm saying, I'm saying, man, like, I don't know.

902
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:07,320
They knocked over a radio shack.

903
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:08,320
You know they did.

904
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,320
You probably, you probably did.

905
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:11,320
Yeah.

906
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:15,720
So we go back to, um, the Joe's bazookas playing golf.

907
00:41:15,720 --> 00:41:16,720
The G.I. Joe base.

908
00:41:16,720 --> 00:41:17,720
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, we got something.

909
00:41:17,720 --> 00:41:18,720
We got something else before that happens.

910
00:41:18,720 --> 00:41:19,720
Hold on.

911
00:41:19,720 --> 00:41:20,720
Yeah.

912
00:41:20,720 --> 00:41:21,720
We got something.

913
00:41:21,720 --> 00:41:22,720
Okay.

914
00:41:22,720 --> 00:41:25,880
So they're shooting the video that they, they, uh, Zartan a corporate commander in

915
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:27,920
Zartan have hired a director.

916
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,240
This is the most typical looking director.

917
00:41:30,240 --> 00:41:33,400
This dude's got along like a, like a short sleeve jumpsuit.

918
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,120
He's got like a, like an Ascot on and like a beret.

919
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,880
This dude is like, this is going to be do.

920
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:39,880
Yeah.

921
00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:40,880
And this guy's, this guy's great.

922
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:46,960
So, um, so he's a director, I guess, and they're shooting the video for Cole, for a cold slither.

923
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,040
They said they're all the red knocks or lip syncing here.

924
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:53,520
And Zartan's got this awesome, like red wig on, but he still has like this, um, he's got

925
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:54,520
his face paint on.

926
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:58,240
He looks like the singer from the, uh, the black metal band immortal.

927
00:41:58,240 --> 00:42:01,400
And so he's a master of disguise, but he's always got face paint on.

928
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,040
So I don't like, like, okay.

929
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:04,040
Yeah.

930
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,840
You got red hair now, buddy, but you still look like a bath from the mall.

931
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:10,960
He looks like, he looks like any like glam band guy from the eighties is fine here.

932
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:11,960
Yeah.

933
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:12,960
He does hear.

934
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:17,680
Um, so, but the producer here is, is angry because they're going into overtime and, uh,

935
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:23,760
I'm going into overtime and, and, uh, because I briefly worked in film, I was like, Oh,

936
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:25,360
that was, that's absolutely.

937
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:26,360
Oh yeah.

938
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:27,360
All inaccurate.

939
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,160
Um, I was like, all right.

940
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:34,280
So, um, I was hoping he was going to invoke the pizza rule, uh, about this.

941
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:35,920
So, um, what's the pizza rule?

942
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:36,920
There's, okay.

943
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:43,400
So, um, if you go into overtime and this, this is a hazy memory, but, um, if you go into

944
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:51,160
overtime, there's a rule that, uh, that, or after X amount of time, you have to, the,

945
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:55,160
the, uh, the producer has to buy everyone dinner.

946
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:56,400
So they have to, they have to pay for dinner.

947
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:58,880
Like, and this is after they've already bought your lunch or whatever.

948
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:03,800
But, um, but there's a rule there that says that, uh, and this was negotiated into the

949
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:07,880
contract with this, with the, like the actors and the, um, like they actually, I could have

950
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:12,040
the actors guild, the, uh, director's guild and the, um, IOTC, the guys that are like

951
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:15,160
the, uh, like every, like the grips and all this stuff.

952
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:21,880
So they can only out of all these times, if they do this more than once, they can only

953
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:25,920
the bonus meal, the overtime meal can only be pizza one day a week.

954
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:27,960
So they can't just cop out and order pizza.

955
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:28,960
Oh, nice.

956
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:29,960
Five days in a row.

957
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:30,960
If they're going to overtime.

958
00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:32,960
So that they can only do that one day a week or something like that.

959
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,960
Um, I was like, Oh, say the, say the pizza, say the pizza.

960
00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:36,960
Oh, yeah.

961
00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:41,960
Um, so, okay.

962
00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:45,640
So now, now we get the golf.

963
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:46,640
Okay.

964
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:53,320
So we're back at the Gijos at the Gijos headquarters, the pits, cause it's called in the comic books.

965
00:43:53,320 --> 00:44:01,720
So bazooka for four, he's so interesting or he cracks this ball and it just, it just

966
00:44:01,720 --> 00:44:04,440
sails in front of the headquarters.

967
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:09,600
And, uh, so we, we cut to gung ho is on a high dive and this, this golf ball cracks him

968
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:14,000
in the head and he falls off the high dive into the water and he splashes lady J who

969
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,040
is either lady J or a covered girl.

970
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:17,040
I'm not sure.

971
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:18,520
Um, cause they weren't in their uniform.

972
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:19,520
I couldn't tell.

973
00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:20,520
So she's short here.

974
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:21,520
Well, they both have short.

975
00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:23,160
No, no, not as short.

976
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:24,520
Lady J is like the little pixie cut.

977
00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:25,520
Oh yeah.

978
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:26,520
Yeah.

979
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:27,520
You're right.

980
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:31,440
So, so yeah, she, so she gets splashed off the raft and, um, so then then the ball flies

981
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:37,560
up and it hits a grill where I believe that this was Flint was grilling some food.

982
00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:39,200
I know it was barbecue.

983
00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:41,080
Oh, that makes sense.

984
00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:46,760
See normally you only see barbecue in the full blown like, like, uh, like firefighting

985
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:47,760
gear.

986
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,160
So yeah, he's a, he's great cause he's supposed to be from Maine.

987
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:54,040
So when he talks, he's like, yeah, you're either by your bar guys.

988
00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:55,040
That's right.

989
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:56,040
You're right.

990
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:57,040
Right.

991
00:44:57,040 --> 00:44:59,240
So that, that accent or really piss off my ex-wife.

992
00:44:59,240 --> 00:45:07,480
Anyways, um, the ball lands in Alpine salad.

993
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:10,840
That was, uh, oh, that was, I see, I thought that was doc, but you're right.

994
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:11,840
That was Alpine.

995
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:16,760
He was, he was going to set on his, his rock climbing gear on him all the time on him while

996
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:17,760
he's sitting outside.

997
00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:18,760
Yeah.

998
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:20,520
What in God's name is he eating?

999
00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:23,120
Because at first I was like, is that like some nachos or something?

1000
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,920
But it's just like covered in guacamole.

1001
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:29,080
If so, but then I was like, well, maybe it is a salad.

1002
00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:32,320
But he's reaching over and eating the salad with his hands.

1003
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:36,000
He's just picking up chunks of salad or whatever it is with his hands, eating it.

1004
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:41,680
But so he picks up, he's just, he's reading a magazine or something and he picks up something.

1005
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:43,680
He picks up what he thinks is a piece of it.

1006
00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:44,680
Right.

1007
00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:46,320
And he, he puts it, he puts it in his mouth.

1008
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:49,200
So you know, you know, the gag is going to be that he picks up the golf ball, but the

1009
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:55,960
animation messes up here and the animation leaves the white golf ball in the plate.

1010
00:45:55,960 --> 00:46:00,720
And then he picks up the golf ball and it just, it just animates off the top of it.

1011
00:46:00,720 --> 00:46:02,560
And but they colored it green.

1012
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:06,280
So it looks like he picked up a big Brussels sprout and ate it.

1013
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:11,920
And then he gets, you know, he gets mad about this, but this, this whole sequence reminded

1014
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:19,200
me of, like way back in the day, one of the guys that I played G.I. Joe with was a student

1015
00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:23,520
Joey who was a little bit older than my immediate circle of friends, but he lived in the same

1016
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:28,040
neighborhood and he, he was a, you know, he taught me how to play D and D or whatever.

1017
00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:31,920
And, but this dude was one of those guys that was just perennially just full of crap.

1018
00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:36,680
He would just lie and tell you the most outlandish stories, like they're the most believable

1019
00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:37,680
things.

1020
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:43,440
So he told us this thing and he told us a few times how he was at a pep rally one time

1021
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:44,440
at school.

1022
00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:52,000
And, and like he, like he had his, he had been carrying his Yoda figure with him from

1023
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:54,080
any part of checks back to yeah.

1024
00:46:54,080 --> 00:47:01,200
And so the band during the, during the pep rally, the school band was played a part of

1025
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:05,760
Star Wars and which was not the ordinary and bands would do that.

1026
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:08,560
So he was just like, yeah, Star Wars.

1027
00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:12,840
And when he did it, he like, like I'm telling you what he told us.

1028
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:14,440
I'm not telling you that this actually happened.

1029
00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:19,240
But so when he was like pumping his fists in the air, going, you know, on, you know,

1030
00:47:19,240 --> 00:47:24,560
Star Wars and when he did, I guess he pumped real hard and he let go and Yoda went flying

1031
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:32,960
onto the field and it landed in the, it landed in the tuba and the tuba player hit the note

1032
00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:39,080
and then, and so you're gonna come flying out and lands on the Xylophone.

1033
00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:43,880
And so the Xylophone guy hits the, hits right when he hits the key and it flips off and then

1034
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:46,560
it hits the band director in the head and he picks it up, he throws it and then he,

1035
00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:47,560
my friend catches it.

1036
00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:48,560
Right.

1037
00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:49,560
And that's the story that he told us.

1038
00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:50,560
I believe that happened.

1039
00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:54,640
And also, I'm gonna believe that Michael Keaton is a friend of mine also.

1040
00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:57,560
He told us that story for a while.

1041
00:47:57,560 --> 00:47:58,560
Oh God.

1042
00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:02,280
And it's like, it is like, that's one of those like teen comedy things that are really

1043
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:07,080
bad that come on like Nickelodeon, the during the 80s and like all that thing happens.

1044
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:08,840
Like obviously that's how it happened.

1045
00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:09,840
Yeah, right.

1046
00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:10,840
Right.

1047
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:11,840
Yeah.

1048
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:12,840
Yeah.

1049
00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:13,840
That's what it sounds like.

1050
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:14,840
Anyways.

1051
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:21,560
These are possibly through my, through my favorite screw off GI Joe guys in the, in their, this

1052
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:24,280
like, like rec room, shipwreck.

1053
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:25,280
Right.

1054
00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:26,280
Lay on there.

1055
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:27,280
He's laying there reading a magazine with it.

1056
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:29,040
These guys parrot on his shoulder.

1057
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:30,040
Yeah.

1058
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:31,640
Like laying down with a parrot on his shoulder.

1059
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:32,640
That's great.

1060
00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:34,120
Breaker and right here.

1061
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:35,120
Loose.

1062
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:36,120
And Footloose.

1063
00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:37,120
Yeah.

1064
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:41,840
Footloose is like the, he is the stereotypical like a Vietnam guy.

1065
00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:47,040
He's even got the foliage in his helmet still.

1066
00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:48,800
He sounds like Tommy Chong.

1067
00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:49,800
He kind of does.

1068
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:50,800
He's like, yeah.

1069
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:51,800
Yeah.

1070
00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:52,800
Yeah.

1071
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:58,640
Breaker, the guy does all the communication stuff and shipwreck is a pirate, I guess.

1072
00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:00,880
But he's got the village people.

1073
00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:07,200
They should have gotten gung ho in there because he would really fit in.

1074
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:12,000
So, so they're, they're watching TV, I guess breakers constantly monitoring every, every

1075
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:13,640
channel in the history of the world.

1076
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:16,320
He's, he's a, he's a comms nerd.

1077
00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:20,360
But so the cold southern video comes on and they're, these are just getting into it.

1078
00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:21,720
They're like, oh yeah, cold southern.

1079
00:49:21,720 --> 00:49:25,520
So they just get up and they're like zombies and they're like just chanting cold southern

1080
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:27,280
and they, they, they, they're, they, they're splitting.

1081
00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:32,680
So like, so they, they go and they, they, they take a, a G. I think, I think they grab

1082
00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:37,040
an off striker or a, I think it was vamp and, and, and, so they, they, they, they, they,

1083
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:41,500
they, they, they, they're going to leave and there's a checkpoint there.

1084
00:49:41,500 --> 00:49:42,500
Okay.

1085
00:49:42,500 --> 00:49:49,160
So these poor security guards are trying to stop them and they break through of course,

1086
00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:54,640
you know, whatever, but there's a sign on the checkpoint that says stop.

1087
00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:59,160
But over the stop, it's got a circle slash general prohibition thing, you know, the circle

1088
00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:00,720
with the, with the slash.

1089
00:50:00,720 --> 00:50:03,500
So I guess it's don't stop, but the barricades down.

1090
00:50:03,500 --> 00:50:04,860
So I guess maybe do stop.

1091
00:50:04,860 --> 00:50:07,200
I don't know what I'm very confused as to what the

1092
00:50:07,500 --> 00:50:08,860
it's just a big don't.

1093
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:12,540
Also, was this around the same time that

1094
00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:15,340
tox is a month go and meet with the Kerber commander?

1095
00:50:15,740 --> 00:50:18,640
We've decided we're going to be your partners.

1096
00:50:19,740 --> 00:50:21,780
Yeah, they're going to split the profits of coal

1097
00:50:21,780 --> 00:50:24,380
because coal at this point, they reveal the cold slither is like

1098
00:50:24,420 --> 00:50:27,120
like in the top 10 of hit songs.

1099
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:29,680
Like it's the number it's climbing the charts, man.

1100
00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:31,920
This dude, these dudes are like, they're like, all right.

1101
00:50:32,620 --> 00:50:34,760
You know, if you're actually have a good plan here,

1102
00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:36,700
all right, we'll back you again. Let's do this.

1103
00:50:37,620 --> 00:50:40,260
Yeah. So, so, yeah.

1104
00:50:40,260 --> 00:50:43,300
So Minn Kobra commander, you know, he

1105
00:50:43,700 --> 00:50:46,060
he basically decides he's holding the world hostage at this point.

1106
00:50:46,100 --> 00:50:48,140
So he he wants

1107
00:50:48,860 --> 00:50:50,740
I don't know. So under the concert start, that's right.

1108
00:50:50,740 --> 00:50:52,640
The concerts are like in full in full swing.

1109
00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:54,380
And there's that's what it is during the concert.

1110
00:50:54,380 --> 00:50:56,280
Yeah, it was like a bazillion cold slither fans.

1111
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:59,620
These are these are just like like, you know, slither.

1112
00:50:59,780 --> 00:51:01,680
Dude, everyone's so excited to see cold slither.

1113
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:03,580
And like so.

1114
00:51:03,580 --> 00:51:07,660
So, yeah, Kobra commander just flat out broadcast this thing.

1115
00:51:07,660 --> 00:51:10,020
And he's all like, I'm enslaving all of you guys.

1116
00:51:10,020 --> 00:51:12,020
And I want a hundred billion dollars.

1117
00:51:12,020 --> 00:51:15,100
Yeah. Like he skips the doctor evil business.

1118
00:51:15,100 --> 00:51:19,000
He just goes right to like, I'm like, that's a good ransom now.

1119
00:51:19,500 --> 00:51:20,540
Yeah, no joke.

1120
00:51:20,540 --> 00:51:23,980
And the best one of the best lines there is they're all at the show.

1121
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:27,340
And someone says something in like the footloose.

1122
00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:31,480
Footloose says, yeah, let's get mellow.

1123
00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:34,440
So I'm telling you, he's Tommy Chong.

1124
00:51:34,740 --> 00:51:35,640
He is.

1125
00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:37,240
He is.

1126
00:51:38,280 --> 00:51:42,220
So like, God, so so this this concert is going on

1127
00:51:42,220 --> 00:51:45,680
and the dreadlocks are are are playing their whole deal.

1128
00:51:46,260 --> 00:51:48,660
And so they decide.

1129
00:51:48,660 --> 00:51:51,560
Lip-syncing a five minute song is just too much work

1130
00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:54,500
and they just start throwing and they just start throwing their instruments

1131
00:51:54,500 --> 00:51:55,960
and they're leaving.

1132
00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:58,240
And hey, man, for five bucks an hour, I don't blame you, man.

1133
00:51:58,240 --> 00:52:00,900
These guys are these guys are like loud quitting, like,

1134
00:52:00,900 --> 00:52:02,160
like good for these guys, man.

1135
00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:03,700
They like good for them, man.

1136
00:52:03,700 --> 00:52:05,760
I'm going by there.

1137
00:52:07,540 --> 00:52:12,040
So Scarlin cover all three show up so so you can see all of them there

1138
00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:17,080
show up to foil the they show up dressed like like groupies

1139
00:52:17,340 --> 00:52:22,120
to hit the the dreadlocks in the like the they in the the green room.

1140
00:52:24,020 --> 00:52:26,080
Why were they wearing disguises?

1141
00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:26,880
I don't know.

1142
00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:28,420
What was like, maybe there was some

1143
00:52:28,420 --> 00:52:31,060
covert security there or something like that, I don't know.

1144
00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:32,020
I guess that I guess that makes sense.

1145
00:52:32,020 --> 00:52:37,260
But this was and they these women just throw

1146
00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:39,300
so much kung fu on these poor dreadlocks.

1147
00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:42,460
They just like beat the living snot out of these guys.

1148
00:52:42,460 --> 00:52:45,540
This is great because I because I believe that canonically all three of them

1149
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:47,040
are positional arts.

1150
00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:48,800
I think that's just something they give to Scarlin.

1151
00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:50,000
It's one of the big ones.

1152
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:51,800
Yeah. Yeah.

1153
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:54,540
I think that's something they give to every every Lady G.

1154
00:52:54,540 --> 00:52:58,740
I Joe, they all they're all like martial arts experts or whatever.

1155
00:53:00,240 --> 00:53:03,980
Yes, they beat the dreadlocks because the dreadlocks in the cartoon

1156
00:53:03,980 --> 00:53:07,720
were always just comic really if they were always these bumbling idiots.

1157
00:53:07,720 --> 00:53:10,680
And which is a very sharp contrast to the comic in the comics.

1158
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:12,780
They were like they were just like much psychopath.

1159
00:53:12,780 --> 00:53:14,860
They were a bunch of crazy bikers.

1160
00:53:14,860 --> 00:53:20,800
But so the cover girl Lady J and Scarlet break into the control room

1161
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:24,840
and they they they basically run the they run the code.

1162
00:53:24,840 --> 00:53:29,500
They run a commander in Destro and they can like like a song.

1163
00:53:29,940 --> 00:53:34,180
And Lady J or Scarlet, one of them grabs the the the the chainsaw gun

1164
00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:35,640
in Scythe City.

1165
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:39,980
So the console and there was a really funny bit where they were they were

1166
00:53:39,980 --> 00:53:43,180
like demonstrating how much power they had over the audience.

1167
00:53:43,180 --> 00:53:43,820
They were like so.

1168
00:53:43,820 --> 00:53:47,660
Cobra commanders like say hail Cobra and the whole kind of like hail Cobra

1169
00:53:47,660 --> 00:53:51,220
and then like say hail Cobra commander and like hail Cobra commander.

1170
00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:54,460
And then like Baroness grads and she's given these commands.

1171
00:53:54,460 --> 00:53:58,360
She's given these dumb, say Destro and Baroness are the best.

1172
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:03,800
And they're like the best and the commander just gets fed up with it.

1173
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:07,440
Snatches the mic back. This was really funny.

1174
00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:09,780
So they break the concert up and so.

1175
00:54:09,780 --> 00:54:14,720
But I guess that just turning it off, I guess freed everybody.

1176
00:54:15,220 --> 00:54:17,020
I guess it freed the whole mind control thing.

1177
00:54:17,020 --> 00:54:20,280
Well, like right before they did that, I think it was I want to say

1178
00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:25,380
Scarlet gets on there says and shipwreck breaker and footloose

1179
00:54:25,380 --> 00:54:28,060
full of PT duty for the next month.

1180
00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:29,260
It was K. It was K.P.

1181
00:54:29,260 --> 00:54:30,400
It was K.P.

1182
00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:30,960
It was K.P.

1183
00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:32,060
Yeah, that was that was pretty fun.

1184
00:54:32,060 --> 00:54:35,960
The whole crowd is like your break for a loose and break or we'll be on.

1185
00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:38,500
Gag runs, of course.

1186
00:54:38,500 --> 00:54:41,440
They saw the console and after like, man, where are we?

1187
00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:45,640
That was like that was really funny.

1188
00:54:45,640 --> 00:54:49,080
So then but then we get we get here it is.

1189
00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:51,140
This is this is what we've been waiting for this entire time.

1190
00:54:51,140 --> 00:54:53,080
So not what I'm going to wait for, but OK.

1191
00:54:53,140 --> 00:54:54,420
Oh, so I've been waiting for the average.

1192
00:54:54,420 --> 00:54:55,620
Joe's.

1193
00:54:55,620 --> 00:54:59,120
So so so the Joe's are in the control room and they're like, man,

1194
00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:00,760
we've got these people are here for a concert.

1195
00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:02,160
We've got a salvage is somehow.

1196
00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:05,300
And so they're like, are you thinking what I'm thinking?

1197
00:55:06,700 --> 00:55:08,300
And oh, God, here it is.

1198
00:55:08,300 --> 00:55:10,060
So.

1199
00:55:10,060 --> 00:55:11,300
I got a ham to them, though.

1200
00:55:11,300 --> 00:55:14,240
They were smart and put rock and roll on me on lead guitar.

1201
00:55:14,240 --> 00:55:16,100
Well, I'm going to get I'm going to get that in a second.

1202
00:55:16,100 --> 00:55:17,880
I'm going to get that in a second.

1203
00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:20,440
So they did not put them on the guitar.

1204
00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:23,180
And I'm going to tell you why in a second.

1205
00:55:23,180 --> 00:55:26,180
So they they announced the average Joe's band.

1206
00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:29,520
And it's and it's all the Joe's that were on this mission together.

1207
00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:33,520
And they and they they're on stage and they just rip through the actual G.I.

1208
00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:34,620
Joe theme.

1209
00:55:34,620 --> 00:55:37,020
It's the dumbest, cheesiest thing of all time.

1210
00:55:37,020 --> 00:55:42,460
And every second of this, it was like it's like if Soundwave decided

1211
00:55:42,460 --> 00:55:46,700
to like play the trick, like actually perform the Transformers theme

1212
00:55:46,860 --> 00:55:49,940
at a concert in, you know, in the Transformers.

1213
00:55:50,140 --> 00:55:52,000
This is great.

1214
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:56,740
So so yeah, it's shipwreck is playing drums,

1215
00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:02,180
breakers playing keyboards, rock and roll.

1216
00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:07,860
Is it rock or all Footloose and Duke are all playing some sort of guitar

1217
00:56:07,860 --> 00:56:10,160
that vary between two strings and three strings.

1218
00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:13,860
And then Lady J Scarlett and Cover Girl are

1219
00:56:13,860 --> 00:56:17,900
are doing the three woman backup vocal thing, which which I hate.

1220
00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:22,260
But so rock and roll

1221
00:56:22,340 --> 00:56:24,800
canonically played in rock and rock bands.

1222
00:56:25,240 --> 00:56:29,180
That's that's that's but he's also a machine gunner and rock and roll

1223
00:56:29,180 --> 00:56:31,680
in army terms means to shoot full auto with machine guns.

1224
00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:34,980
So he's it's like a double thing there, but he canonically played in rock.

1225
00:56:35,180 --> 00:56:37,280
So I'll buy him being able to just get up and jam.

1226
00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:38,820
Yeah. So it loose.

1227
00:56:38,820 --> 00:56:41,060
Maybe I mean, he's kind of a Tommy Chong, dude.

1228
00:56:41,060 --> 00:56:42,660
Yeah. He was jam.

1229
00:56:42,660 --> 00:56:44,720
I would say he could at least get out there and jam.

1230
00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:45,560
Yes. Yeah.

1231
00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:46,660
Something I can see it.

1232
00:56:46,660 --> 00:56:49,100
I can see him like, you know, like that.

1233
00:56:49,100 --> 00:56:52,600
So the ladies are singing and that's that's that's, you know, whatever.

1234
00:56:52,740 --> 00:56:56,040
Of course, breakers playing keyboards and I'll buy that.

1235
00:56:56,600 --> 00:56:58,340
Yeah. It should break us playing the drums.

1236
00:56:58,340 --> 00:57:02,540
I don't know. I don't really buy him being a drummer, but drums are like

1237
00:57:03,380 --> 00:57:05,740
like I play at a lot of instruments.

1238
00:57:05,740 --> 00:57:08,340
And I'm not taking anything away from any one that's actually good at these things.

1239
00:57:08,340 --> 00:57:11,860
But drums are the easiest instrument to to attain like

1240
00:57:12,720 --> 00:57:17,420
like a base level of competence, competency at like you can like, I mean,

1241
00:57:18,420 --> 00:57:20,200
you can't afford to just play, you just play drums.

1242
00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:21,560
It's you can keep a beat, you know, whatever.

1243
00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:24,100
You're not good, but you can at least, you know, kind of keep a beat

1244
00:57:24,100 --> 00:57:26,000
as long as you have some semblance of rhythm.

1245
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:28,200
We'll be hurt, but you can play.

1246
00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:32,440
But I absolutely do not buy Duke.

1247
00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:37,340
Play an instrument at all.

1248
00:57:37,340 --> 00:57:40,880
I could see him being that the guy who plays Wonderwall at a campfire.

1249
00:57:40,940 --> 00:57:43,280
That's as far as I can get.

1250
00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:45,220
Man, I don't I don't I don't see it.

1251
00:57:45,220 --> 00:57:48,220
I I'm not buying it.

1252
00:57:48,220 --> 00:57:49,120
I'm not buying it at all.

1253
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:51,720
But you know, but here's here's some here's some fun and fun rock and roll.

1254
00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:54,200
The rock and roll according to this file card.

1255
00:57:54,700 --> 00:57:55,200
I don't know.

1256
00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:57,160
Was a surfer in Malibu.

1257
00:57:57,160 --> 00:58:00,000
Oh, I can see that was a weightlifter

1258
00:58:00,740 --> 00:58:03,000
and played bass guitar in local rock bands.

1259
00:58:03,940 --> 00:58:04,600
This all checks out.

1260
00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:05,640
You know, yeah.

1261
00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:07,200
Which I'm like, oh, OK, cool.

1262
00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:12,200
Do you know who else was a surfer, a weightlifter and a bassist

1263
00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:15,400
around Malibu around Malibu at this time

1264
00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:18,840
and also had long blonde hair and a blonde beard?

1265
00:58:20,380 --> 00:58:21,420
Real life. That's right.

1266
00:58:21,420 --> 00:58:22,620
That's right, brother.

1267
00:58:22,620 --> 00:58:25,960
It's Hulk Hogan.

1268
00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:28,420
It all works together.

1269
00:58:28,420 --> 00:58:30,320
It's right. It fits right in.

1270
00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:32,860
If you play a bass guitar, too.

1271
00:58:32,860 --> 00:58:34,060
I knew he was a surfer.

1272
00:58:34,060 --> 00:58:35,760
He had that. Yeah. Yeah.

1273
00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:39,640
He played bass and he was actually that was what he was doing

1274
00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:40,660
when he got into wrestling.

1275
00:58:40,660 --> 00:58:42,500
He was he played bass in some bar bands.

1276
00:58:42,500 --> 00:58:44,400
And and there's that story about how

1277
00:58:46,140 --> 00:58:48,480
he was he said like in an interview one time that

1278
00:58:49,500 --> 00:58:52,380
he auditioned for Metallica after Jason Neustad quit.

1279
00:58:53,820 --> 00:58:54,880
Wow. Yeah.

1280
00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:57,680
And of course, Hogan embellishing was like, oh, yeah, brother,

1281
00:58:57,680 --> 00:58:59,280
and they wanted me, but I didn't have time.

1282
00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:01,420
I didn't want to be off the off the road and wrestling.

1283
00:59:01,420 --> 00:59:04,060
And I'm like, I don't think that's how that went down, Hulk.

1284
00:59:04,900 --> 00:59:08,020
Yeah. And and that's it.

1285
00:59:08,020 --> 00:59:10,540
They sent the crowd home happy with with playing the G.

1286
00:59:10,540 --> 00:59:12,060
Egio theme.

1287
00:59:12,060 --> 00:59:14,200
Yeah, that wouldn't check that does not check out.

1288
00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:14,940
That is you.

1289
00:59:14,940 --> 00:59:18,840
That is the biggest leap of faith at Stegman's Dyer episode.

1290
00:59:19,340 --> 00:59:22,580
And I we saw a little person, you know, gang

1291
00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:27,640
mob boss in the New Orleans billiards hall billiards hall.

1292
00:59:27,820 --> 00:59:29,440
That all checks out to me.

1293
00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:30,860
That all checks out.

1294
00:59:30,860 --> 00:59:33,320
Them playing this and the people loving it does not.

1295
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:36,060
That is the furthest leap of faith in this whole episode.

1296
00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:39,260
You know, I have a friend that has a theory that

1297
00:59:39,260 --> 00:59:42,640
that that any crowd will just enjoy any live music.

1298
00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:44,460
Can we just put in any any band on stage?

1299
00:59:44,460 --> 00:59:47,140
And I'm like, I don't I don't agree with that at all.

1300
00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:49,480
But I don't know. Maybe it maybe it happened here.

1301
00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:51,040
I don't know.

1302
00:59:51,040 --> 00:59:53,640
If you're expecting to watch really bad band, you're going to

1303
00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:54,880
enjoy a little really bad band.

1304
00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:57,620
You're expecting to see this big hit and they're not there.

1305
00:59:58,120 --> 00:59:59,720
No, they played the hit.

1306
00:59:59,720 --> 01:00:01,820
That was the thing is that was the only song they had.

1307
01:00:01,820 --> 01:00:03,180
They didn't have like an album.

1308
01:00:03,180 --> 01:00:05,620
It wasn't like they called me.

1309
01:00:05,620 --> 01:00:07,060
But hold on. Let's circle.

1310
01:00:07,060 --> 01:00:11,300
Let's circle back to to to friend of the show, Jehu, once again.

1311
01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:12,400
Good.

1312
01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:15,160
While back, he posted that theory that in

1313
01:00:16,100 --> 01:00:18,740
in Transformers and the G.I. Joe, there's only one song.

1314
01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:23,240
Like every time you hear background music, it's always the same song, right?

1315
01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:26,880
So now they've heard they've heard they finally heard a second song.

1316
01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:30,760
So that's why they're that's why they're excited.

1317
01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:33,320
Maybe, maybe, maybe I see that song.

1318
01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:37,900
A lot of times it's a variation of the instrumental from Gold Slither Slither.

1319
01:00:37,900 --> 01:00:40,540
That's any time your music, it's always

1320
01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:44,400
yeah, I see that.

1321
01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:46,180
Oh, God, it checks out.

1322
01:00:46,180 --> 01:00:48,340
Yeah, exactly. So Mr.

1323
01:00:48,340 --> 01:00:53,040
So yeah, they're very excited to hear another song finally after all these years.

1324
01:00:53,280 --> 01:00:54,880
It totally cannot shame them for that.

1325
01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:55,980
OK, good point. Good point.

1326
01:00:55,980 --> 01:00:57,420
I'll go with it.

1327
01:00:57,420 --> 01:00:59,780
And that was it.

1328
01:01:01,120 --> 01:01:05,520
I really cannot express how much fun I had watching this episode.

1329
01:01:06,020 --> 01:01:10,360
This is a case where I've said before that I haven't really gone back to G.I. Joe

1330
01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:12,400
much as an adult.

1331
01:01:12,400 --> 01:01:16,500
And a lot of it is just because I tried to go back and watch in Voltron

1332
01:01:16,500 --> 01:01:17,900
and it aged very poorly.

1333
01:01:17,900 --> 01:01:20,840
And I assume this was just going to be the worst thing I'd ever seen in my life.

1334
01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:23,080
But.

1335
01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:28,940
Very happy to report that this is one of the best things I have ever seen in my life.

1336
01:01:29,180 --> 01:01:30,980
I was so thrilled.

1337
01:01:30,980 --> 01:01:34,180
I was just absolutely like enamored with every second of this.

1338
01:01:34,180 --> 01:01:36,620
I loved every dumb thing. I loved every cool thing.

1339
01:01:37,620 --> 01:01:41,060
It's actually a pretty decent solid solid story.

1340
01:01:41,060 --> 01:01:42,960
I got some I got some cool.

1341
01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:45,800
I've said before, I've been on the verge of collecting

1342
01:01:46,460 --> 01:01:49,160
your three and three quarter inch G.I. Joe 80s G.I. Joe's for a while.

1343
01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:52,640
Like, but this may have just pushed me over the edge

1344
01:01:52,640 --> 01:01:55,900
because there was just like like the toy ad part just stopped

1345
01:01:55,900 --> 01:01:57,280
like halfway through the episode.

1346
01:01:57,280 --> 01:02:01,280
And there was no more, you know, like I'm not going to go by the concert stage

1347
01:02:01,280 --> 01:02:05,740
or there wasn't like a Cobra like like I don't there wasn't like an auditorium

1348
01:02:05,740 --> 01:02:07,480
in the terror of Rome or anything like that.

1349
01:02:07,480 --> 01:02:11,720
But I got to see the Sky Striker, one of my favorite toys of all time.

1350
01:02:12,220 --> 01:02:14,820
All kinds of cool characters that I like.

1351
01:02:14,820 --> 01:02:16,320
This was super cool.

1352
01:02:16,320 --> 01:02:19,520
I but and I remember like in this episode when I was a kid,

1353
01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:23,100
even though I knew it was cheesy and so

1354
01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:27,660
I am giving a unified rating on this one.

1355
01:02:28,240 --> 01:02:31,640
An unprecedented never before awarded.

1356
01:02:32,680 --> 01:02:36,340
Six trench coats out of five.

1357
01:02:37,520 --> 01:02:38,840
Wait, so this is the best.

1358
01:02:38,840 --> 01:02:41,040
This is the best thing that we have watched.

1359
01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:43,720
This is the best thing that I've watched so far.

1360
01:02:43,720 --> 01:02:45,640
Six I have broken the scale.

1361
01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:48,320
I have gone to six trench coats turned up to eleven.

1362
01:02:48,320 --> 01:02:49,960
All right, out of five.

1363
01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:52,600
I've cold so there is gone up to six to six.

1364
01:02:52,720 --> 01:02:54,400
What do you got? Where are you? Where are you on this?

1365
01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:55,760
And the same thing.

1366
01:02:55,760 --> 01:03:00,300
I remember not this is not a great episode to me in memory.

1367
01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:03,140
It's going to be fun to watch it and just see how ridiculous it is.

1368
01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:07,600
And up until the last maybe minutes when they were playing the average

1369
01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:09,920
Joseph playing, I was in it man completely.

1370
01:03:10,240 --> 01:03:12,240
I will say that I.

1371
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:15,180
OK, I've made a take talk for the show.

1372
01:03:15,180 --> 01:03:17,280
I'll kind of give a little quick, you know, hey, guys,

1373
01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:19,400
so we're doing this week and so on and so forth.

1374
01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:20,200
I had to stop.

1375
01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:23,520
I did one beginning Friday and then half way through the episode,

1376
01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:25,000
I had to stop doing the message.

1377
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:27,360
I'm like, this is the perfect episode.

1378
01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:30,840
I had so many things I didn't even remember.

1379
01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:36,000
And the thing is, we appreciate this more now as adults than we did as we were kids.

1380
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:37,960
I'm like, oh, wherever we little guy.

1381
01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:39,600
No, this is so good.

1382
01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:42,280
This is this is yeah, it's great.

1383
01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:46,360
I'm almost scared to watch anymore.

1384
01:03:46,400 --> 01:03:48,560
G.I. Joe at this point because this is just so good.

1385
01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:51,880
But it was like, I mean, it touched it actually touched on a lot of a lot of real

1386
01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:54,600
world stuff and it made some things make sense.

1387
01:03:54,600 --> 01:03:55,560
It don't normally make sense.

1388
01:03:55,560 --> 01:03:57,640
Like, you know, how does that was Cobra funded or whatever?

1389
01:03:57,920 --> 01:03:58,800
What was my back?

1390
01:03:58,800 --> 01:04:00,200
I cut you off, though.

1391
01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:01,200
What was your? Oh, yeah.

1392
01:04:01,200 --> 01:04:02,160
Well, no, I guess.

1393
01:04:02,160 --> 01:04:07,640
So honestly, all those things I had the fact that I had to stop and tell people,

1394
01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:10,560
which apparently a lot of people are really into it and they started, you know,

1395
01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:12,840
checking things out, which I hopefully will check out the episode.

1396
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:15,320
Yeah, man, I got to get this thing.

1397
01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:18,520
I will not break the scale because I sure fused to do that.

1398
01:04:18,680 --> 01:04:21,680
And it had me at a full five until the last minute.

1399
01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:29,760
Average Joe's brought me down to a four and a half holographic mud huts

1400
01:04:29,760 --> 01:04:32,160
in the swamp out of five.

1401
01:04:32,160 --> 01:04:35,000
But I had I was on there until the average just played.

1402
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:39,800
And I remembered why I hated the episode as a kid because it was like, oh,

1403
01:04:39,800 --> 01:04:42,720
because that was the inevitable time your dad would walk in.

1404
01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:43,560
What are you watching?

1405
01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:46,400
And they see that real American hero.

1406
01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:48,360
And they're like, oh, no, nothing.

1407
01:04:48,360 --> 01:04:49,680
What are you? What is this garbage?

1408
01:04:49,680 --> 01:04:50,880
You're walking. Yeah, pretty much.

1409
01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:52,320
Now, they didn't see all the cool stuff.

1410
01:04:52,320 --> 01:04:54,800
They didn't see all the they didn't see the little

1411
01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:56,960
Appetian man with a hundred thousand dollars in the swamp.

1412
01:04:57,080 --> 01:04:59,440
They didn't see Zartain being really cool.

1413
01:04:59,520 --> 01:05:03,880
They didn't see real metal being played on the stage.

1414
01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:05,560
Yeah, man.

1415
01:05:05,560 --> 01:05:08,200
This is this was one of my favorite episodes.

1416
01:05:08,200 --> 01:05:09,840
I'm so glad we went back and watch it.

1417
01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:13,920
And this is even more reinforces the idea I want to play with this more

1418
01:05:14,520 --> 01:05:17,320
as a as a kind of a filler, fun thing to do.

1419
01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:18,920
Yeah, this was yeah.

1420
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:21,360
This was yeah, easily.

1421
01:05:21,360 --> 01:05:25,120
That like possibly some of the most fun I've had watching anything so far.

1422
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:28,880
Yeah, can't say enough good about it.

1423
01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:32,480
Real quick, I got to say back in the early 90s,

1424
01:05:33,040 --> 01:05:36,560
I had a friend named Dave and I was like, what?

1425
01:05:36,560 --> 01:05:38,680
My friends, Matt and Charles and stuff.

1426
01:05:38,680 --> 01:05:42,480
They were like, hey, if he starts talking about a job opportunity, say no.

1427
01:05:42,920 --> 01:05:44,000
Oh, OK, whatever, man.

1428
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:47,200
He worked like a KB, you know, you're a KB drugstore.

1429
01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:50,440
Yeah, you worked on one of those and he's like, he's like talking all these

1430
01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:52,960
these things he has brewing in the background.

1431
01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:53,720
He's going to make a lot of money.

1432
01:05:53,720 --> 01:05:55,880
I'm like, all right, man, we're hanging out with them.

1433
01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:56,960
Like, what are you talking about?

1434
01:05:56,960 --> 01:06:02,320
I was like, OK, look, now I got in on the level of this of this opportunity

1435
01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:03,720
and I want you to work with me.

1436
01:06:03,720 --> 01:06:04,960
It was Amway.

1437
01:06:04,960 --> 01:06:06,880
He was trying to talk me into being an Amway salesman.

1438
01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:08,880
Yeah, I like a no big no.

1439
01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:10,680
Wow. Yeah.

1440
01:06:10,680 --> 01:06:13,120
Yeah, I had this.

1441
01:06:13,680 --> 01:06:16,840
There was a point where back in the 90s, I had this idea where I really like

1442
01:06:17,560 --> 01:06:22,160
some at some point, the idea for having a movie theater that also had bands play.

1443
01:06:23,200 --> 01:06:26,720
And also you could have like snacks like food or whatever and like

1444
01:06:26,720 --> 01:06:28,000
do like theme nights or something like that.

1445
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:31,120
You can have like, you know, you can show like a Western and have like a

1446
01:06:32,280 --> 01:06:34,280
of like a surf band place that kind of goes together.

1447
01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:36,120
And you could, you know, you can serve like chili that night

1448
01:06:36,120 --> 01:06:40,000
and or you can do like the God like a gangster movie and that sort of spaghetti

1449
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:44,360
or something, you know, or, you know, whatever, you know, you know, you know,

1450
01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:48,520
whatever, but you show old movies and that and that kind of thing.

1451
01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:53,440
But I was working in a bookstore at the time and this and I was stocking

1452
01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:55,560
something and a guy came up and said, hey, how are you doing?

1453
01:06:55,560 --> 01:06:57,360
And I was like, oh, he's like, hey, do you have this book?

1454
01:06:57,360 --> 01:06:58,840
And I was like, I'll be look for it.

1455
01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:02,840
And then he's like, well, hey, man, you ever you like working here?

1456
01:07:02,840 --> 01:07:04,520
And I was like, yeah, that's, you know, it's okay.

1457
01:07:04,520 --> 01:07:07,240
Whatever he's like, well, you ever thought about owning your own business?

1458
01:07:07,240 --> 01:07:09,360
And I was like, yeah, actually I have.

1459
01:07:09,360 --> 01:07:14,160
I have this idea for this thing and foolishly just, you know, spouted out

1460
01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:17,000
the entire plan that I had, which is real dumb.

1461
01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:21,520
You know, I mean, I was like, you know, 21, but he's like, well, you know,

1462
01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:24,200
my wife and I have this thing where we help people start their own businesses.

1463
01:07:24,200 --> 01:07:25,560
And I was like, oh, really?

1464
01:07:25,560 --> 01:07:26,920
He's like, yeah, man.

1465
01:07:26,920 --> 01:07:28,600
He's like, yeah, see, that sounds real cool.

1466
01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:31,720
So, hey, let me get your number and I'll give you a call about it.

1467
01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:32,840
Like, okay, cool.

1468
01:07:32,840 --> 01:07:40,120
And so like, so it's like, he calls me a couple of days later and he's like,

1469
01:07:40,120 --> 01:07:42,840
why don't we meet at the, at the, uh, this McDonald's and down here.

1470
01:07:42,840 --> 01:07:45,280
Well, I'll go over some stuff and I'm like, okay, cool.

1471
01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:45,800
You know, whatever.

1472
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:48,720
So I'm going to meet the guy and he's like, talk to me about all this stuff.

1473
01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:51,440
And then he's going through and he's drawn this diagram or whatever.

1474
01:07:51,440 --> 01:07:56,560
And it's like, and I'm like, wait, I'm like, yeah, this thing at the top.

1475
01:07:56,560 --> 01:07:59,680
And then there's like these two things and then three things and then four

1476
01:07:59,680 --> 01:08:00,600
things underneath that.

1477
01:08:00,600 --> 01:08:05,480
And I'm like, I was like, I was like, is this a pyramid scheme?

1478
01:08:05,480 --> 01:08:07,040
He's like, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.

1479
01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:09,880
It's not, this is like a triangle plan for success.

1480
01:08:09,880 --> 01:08:12,520
It's like, oh, no.

1481
01:08:12,520 --> 01:08:13,520
Use your words.

1482
01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:14,880
What are, what are pyramids?

1483
01:08:14,880 --> 01:08:15,880
What are triangles?

1484
01:08:15,880 --> 01:08:17,880
So, what are the lines of the pyramid?

1485
01:08:17,880 --> 01:08:22,120
And so he gets the top and he's all like, and he's like, and then in a minute,

1486
01:08:22,120 --> 01:08:23,480
I'm going to reveal the name of it.

1487
01:08:23,480 --> 01:08:25,960
It's at the top of the pyramid and well, and then he goes on and on.

1488
01:08:25,960 --> 01:08:27,120
And I find it's like, what's am I?

1489
01:08:27,120 --> 01:08:29,120
But don't let that, don't let that scare you off.

1490
01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:34,120
And then, so he let me borrow all these like, like videos and stuff on

1491
01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:35,520
Amway and books and all the stuff.

1492
01:08:35,520 --> 01:08:36,520
He's like, take this home with you.

1493
01:08:36,520 --> 01:08:39,720
And, you know, it is, it only costs this much money to get in and well,

1494
01:08:39,720 --> 01:08:43,040
and I'm like, like, I was like, just to be polite.

1495
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:44,760
I was like, yeah, I'll take it home and watch it.

1496
01:08:44,760 --> 01:08:49,600
So that ended up me being, me telling everyone that I worked with and my

1497
01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:52,040
friends that I was like, hey, guys, I got some Amway videos.

1498
01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:55,480
And so it was like, oh my God.

1499
01:08:55,480 --> 01:08:59,600
So we spent like all night, like one week and night just like getting

1500
01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:04,800
stupid drunk and watching these Amway videos and just dying, laughing at these things.

1501
01:09:04,800 --> 01:09:06,040
They were, they were very funny.

1502
01:09:06,040 --> 01:09:10,440
And I hate that I had to give them back because it was one of those weird,

1503
01:09:10,920 --> 01:09:15,000
like kind of pre-YouTube weirdo, like artifact things that I that I kind of

1504
01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:16,760
wish that I could like scan or whatever.

1505
01:09:16,760 --> 01:09:23,200
But yeah, yeah, that was, yeah, that was, that was weird, weird stuff.

1506
01:09:23,200 --> 01:09:24,760
I never, I don't think I ever saw that guy.

1507
01:09:24,760 --> 01:09:27,160
Like I ended up giving him back to him, but I don't think I ever saw that guy again.

1508
01:09:27,160 --> 01:09:30,520
I assumed that he'd be the kind of the kind of guy that you would just see

1509
01:09:30,520 --> 01:09:33,480
around town a lot, you know, trying to, hey, how are you?

1510
01:09:33,480 --> 01:09:34,040
How's it going?

1511
01:09:34,040 --> 01:09:34,800
You ever thought about it?

1512
01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:37,400
Like, oh, no, I've never thought about having a business.

1513
01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:39,280
I'm a, I like being a slave.

1514
01:09:39,840 --> 01:09:42,040
Yeah, I just want to pay.

1515
01:09:42,880 --> 01:09:43,520
I'm just own business.

1516
01:09:43,520 --> 01:09:45,320
No, nothing like that, man.

1517
01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:46,360
Yeah.

1518
01:09:46,360 --> 01:09:46,720
All right.

1519
01:09:46,720 --> 01:09:51,160
Well, everyone thinks we're hanging out with us, listening to us ramble about

1520
01:09:51,160 --> 01:09:56,360
stuff, our lives and this amazing episode, and I cannot wait to talk to

1521
01:09:56,360 --> 01:09:58,000
Michael Charles Hill.

1522
01:09:58,240 --> 01:10:00,920
That is his name, three names, Michael Charles Hill.

1523
01:10:00,920 --> 01:10:01,480
Remember that.

1524
01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:04,600
Can you text that to me so I don't forget it when we're talking?

1525
01:10:04,600 --> 01:10:05,720
Yeah, I'll do that.

1526
01:10:05,720 --> 01:10:06,560
And I'll do that.

1527
01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:07,200
Yeah, I'm getting.

1528
01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:08,640
So yeah, man, I'll be real excited.

1529
01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:09,800
Hopefully you can join.

1530
01:10:09,800 --> 01:10:13,440
You can have a meeting with him and I'll interview and ask him all kinds of things.

1531
01:10:13,440 --> 01:10:16,880
He's willing to talk to about all the stuff he's done, even like talking

1532
01:10:16,880 --> 01:10:18,960
about space and intercobra, all that stuff.

1533
01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:19,720
So good.

1534
01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:21,520
Yeah, yeah, definitely.

1535
01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:25,960
All right, y'all, thanks for being here this week and we will see you next time.

1536
01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:27,720
I do have something to say before we go, though.

1537
01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:31,480
I have a little thing to say, though, which is that we're cold slither

1538
01:10:31,480 --> 01:10:33,360
and you'll be joining us soon.

1539
01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:38,200
A band of vipers playing our tune with an iron fist and a reptile hiss.

1540
01:10:38,200 --> 01:10:40,000
We shall rule.

1541
01:10:40,160 --> 01:10:41,320
We're tired of words.

1542
01:10:41,320 --> 01:10:42,640
We've heard it before.

1543
01:10:42,640 --> 01:10:44,760
Not going to play the game no more.

1544
01:10:44,760 --> 01:10:46,000
Don't tell us what's right.

1545
01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:47,720
Don't tell us what's wrong.

1546
01:10:47,720 --> 01:10:51,480
Too late to resist because Cobra is strong.

1547
01:10:52,040 --> 01:10:56,440
We're cold slither heavy metal machine through the eyes of a lizard.

1548
01:10:57,360 --> 01:11:00,440
And you will dream when the venom stings.

1549
01:11:00,440 --> 01:11:03,240
A new order brings our control.

1550
01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:09,000
I swear to God, I want to go start a band right now and cover this like I.

1551
01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:13,280
That song has been an earworm in my head all day.

1552
01:11:15,080 --> 01:11:15,880
I want to know who wrote it.

1553
01:11:15,880 --> 01:11:19,720
I need to know who wrote this because I want to find out my control.

1554
01:11:19,720 --> 01:11:22,160
So did I find out we're going to find out on Wednesday then.

1555
01:11:22,160 --> 01:11:24,000
So it sounds like y'all take it easy.

1556
01:11:24,120 --> 01:11:25,760
Have a great week and talk to you later.

1557
01:11:25,760 --> 01:11:26,080
See you.

1558
01:11:26,080 --> 01:11:26,360
Yo, Joe.

1559
01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:36,760
And now for the greatest rock and rollers in the land, the average Joe ban.

1560
01:11:39,880 --> 01:11:41,520
It'll fight for freedom.

1561
01:11:41,520 --> 01:11:43,120
Whatever that's trouble.

1562
01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:45,240
G.I. Joe is there.

1563
01:11:45,240 --> 01:11:46,200
G.I. Joe.

1564
01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:48,920
The real American hero.

1565
01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:51,520
G.I. Joe is there.

1566
01:11:51,520 --> 01:11:57,520
It's G.I. Joe against Cobra, the enemy fighting to save the day.

1567
01:11:57,520 --> 01:11:59,000
He never gets up.

1568
01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:00,640
He's always there.

1569
01:12:00,640 --> 01:12:03,480
Fighting for freedom over land and air.

1570
01:12:03,480 --> 01:12:06,440
A real American hero.

1571
01:12:06,440 --> 01:12:09,320
G.I. Joe is there.

1572
01:12:09,320 --> 01:12:13,200
He'll never give up.

1573
01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:15,200
He'll stay till the fight's won.

1574
01:12:15,200 --> 01:12:17,200
G.I. Joe will care.

1575
01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:18,200
G.I. Joe.

1576
01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:21,200
A real American hero.

1577
01:12:21,200 --> 01:12:24,200
G.I. Joe is there.

1578
01:12:24,200 --> 01:12:27,200
G.I. Joe.

1579
01:12:27,200 --> 01:12:28,600
More than me sees guys.

1580
01:12:28,600 --> 01:12:33,760
