00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:13,120
Hello and welcome back to the podcast.

2
00:00:13,120 --> 00:00:14,120
I'm Michael.

3
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:15,120
I'm Noe.

4
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:16,920
And we are the Knights of Entertainment, a podcast covering your favorite internet,

5
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:19,080
and movies, games, comic books, anime, and more weekly.

6
00:00:19,080 --> 00:00:21,480
We appreciate you being here and hope you enjoy the show.

7
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:23,480
Let's go ahead and get started.

8
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:29,360
All righty, so this is a continuation of last week's artifacts that are within the DC universe.

9
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:35,000
We will start off with the next one, which is The Last Note of Truth.

10
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:42,840
It exists in every universe for the DC universe, so like Earth 2, Earth 1, all of them.

11
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:50,120
The dimensions of it, it's potentially infinite in length, so it can actually...

12
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,120
It's still just like five years.

13
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,640
That was too easy of a layup.

14
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,000
Yes, it was.

15
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:02,560
The owners, the current one is Wonder Woman, previous owners are Hippolyta, Artemis, Batman

16
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,200
on Prime Earth, Cheetah, and Steve Trevor.

17
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:06,200
Batman had one?

18
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:07,200
Yes.

19
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:08,200
Tell me, tell me, what the jokers do.

20
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:12,640
The Last Note of Truth compels you?

21
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:18,600
It also was first seen in June of 1942 in Sensation Comics number six.

22
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,120
Yeah, because that motherfucker loved bondage.

23
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:24,880
I mean, the guy that created Wonder Woman loved him some bondage, unlike any motherfucker

24
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:25,880
I've ever known.

25
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:33,480
So, originally on Earth 2, the lasso was created from Aphrodite's magical girdle by the Amazon's

26
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:38,440
craft woman, Metalia, at the behest of Queen Hippolyta.

27
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:42,480
And its magical properties were granted by the goddess herself and by Athena.

28
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:46,880
The lasso forced whoever was bound within it to obey the commands of the user.

29
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:51,880
This effect could also be used on groups of people, although this basically reduces its

30
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:57,560
efficacy so you could control an entire group of people, but the more potent, the less potent

31
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,520
it would be, which is a weird, like you wouldn't expect that.

32
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:02,520
But I guess-

33
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:03,520
But I guess-

34
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,880
Ready for like a hundred people to tell the truth at once, might be a little overwhelming.

35
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:12,540
Yeah, and I think it's probably kind of like, you know, like everybody's willpower kind

36
00:02:12,540 --> 00:02:16,520
of fights back against, like, depending on, who was it?

37
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,880
Was it Batman that actually resisted it at one point?

38
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:19,880
I can't remember.

39
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:20,880
I don't know.

40
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:21,880
I don't know.

41
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:28,600
In addition to being physically unbreakable, the lasso is also infinitely elastic.

42
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:29,600
Infinity elastic.

43
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:30,600
Elastic.

44
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:35,240
Eventually, Diana expanded the lasso's powers by coating it with a special Amazon chemicals.

45
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,480
This allowed the weapon to transform her civilian clothes into Wonder Woman garb.

46
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:39,480
What?

47
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:40,480
Yeah.

48
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,040
I thought you were just spinning in a circle.

49
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:44,680
And sling lasso around.

50
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:45,680
What the fuck?

51
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,080
What the lasso have to do with her changing her clothes?

52
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:50,800
A weird fucking choice by the writer.

53
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:51,800
Yes.

54
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:52,800
However, another slightly different.

55
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:53,800
Teddy's pop out.

56
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,320
She got two piercings, one on her nipple.

57
00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:00,520
This is some weird shit in his fucking notes.

58
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,280
He was a freak though, you know.

59
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:03,280
I'm a freak.

60
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:04,280
I'm at a whole different level.

61
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:05,960
That's another thing about writers.

62
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,400
They have like the just copious notes and the randomest shit.

63
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:10,840
You should see my fucking notebook.

64
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,760
It looks like a fucking serial killer's journal.

65
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,200
It's just my writing idea.

66
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:22,680
However, another slightly different Earth 2 origin story tells that the lasso was designed

67
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:28,280
by the goddess Aphrodite herself from the magical girdle along with Wonder Woman's uniform.

68
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,960
Diana has demonstrated a remarkable level of skill with the lasso performing such feats

69
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:37,160
as twirling it into create air currents, which upon she could float and spinning to emit

70
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:40,960
certain frequencies that disrupt Felix Faust's spells.

71
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:47,560
He's like, you bitch.

72
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,400
Like you're a master sorcerer.

73
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:50,400
Yeah, like you bitch.

74
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,080
You're just fucking spinning the fucking rum.

75
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,320
You're like your whole fucking shit just like evaporated.

76
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,120
It's like you fucking bitch.

77
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:58,440
Like the most complex spell.

78
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,480
It took me 17 hours to conjure.

79
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:05,200
And he was one of the ones that it took like his spells were forever.

80
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,880
Like he had all this setup and shit and ritualistic shit.

81
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:13,560
Like 72 incantations wrapped up into 15 fucking sorcerer circles.

82
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,240
And you ruin it with your spinning fucking the rope.

83
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,200
How dare you with a lasso.

84
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:23,400
During post crisis, the lasso was forged by Hephaestus, the god of metalworking from the

85
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,880
golden girdle of Gaia.

86
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:29,720
The lasso is completely unbreakable, immutable and indestructible.

87
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,720
It also is capable of altering its length based on the wielder's needs.

88
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:38,120
Improving its powers are the ability to restore lost memories, cast hypnosis, dispel illusions

89
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,920
and protect those within its circumference from magical attacks.

90
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,360
And also ruin Felix's house.

91
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,360
It's like specifically his stuff.

92
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:45,360
Like motherfuckers.

93
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,360
And it's not even her villain.

94
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,360
That's the most fucked up part.

95
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,200
Because it's Dr. Fate's.

96
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:53,200
Like god dang it.

97
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,240
This fucking lasso.

98
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,600
Empowered by the fires of Hestia, the lasso forces anyone held within its tail then under

99
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,440
uh tail and understand the absolute truth.

100
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:06,560
This power in particular can be very dangerous as not everyone is capable of facing the truth

101
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,040
of their actions stripped bare of its use.

102
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:09,240
She should be a fucking lawyer.

103
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:10,240
I know.

104
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:11,480
Your honor, can I use the lasso of truth?

105
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:12,960
Isn't she like a historian there?

106
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,880
Yeah, she should be a fucking lawyer.

107
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,000
Just put that shit in their seat before they fucking take to stand.

108
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,680
It's like tell the truth.

109
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:22,680
And nothing but the truth.

110
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,160
And he's like I did kill him.

111
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:30,120
The Amazon Artemis, inexperienced with the use of the lasso, inadvertently drove a man

112
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,280
to suicide after trying it on him.

113
00:05:32,280 --> 00:05:37,200
The lasso reduced both Captain Nazi and Ares, god of war, to tearful surrender by revealing

114
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:38,960
to them the truth of their violent actions.

115
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:39,960
Damn.

116
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:40,960
Captain Nazi.

117
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:41,960
Captain Nazi.

118
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:42,960
You remember him?

119
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,960
Yeah, quite quite the hero.

120
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:50,000
Recently the lasso has been shown to actually transport Diana's mind into the mind of whoever

121
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:51,320
is tied within it.

122
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:52,320
What?

123
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:53,320
Yeah.

124
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,120
It's a weird overly complicated bullshit.

125
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:56,120
Yes.

126
00:05:56,120 --> 00:06:00,520
When the villain Genocide gained control of the lasso and had it implanted into her body,

127
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,560
she used its powers to directly attack her victim's souls and was able to bring even

128
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:09,040
more powerful strong-willed opponents like Green Lantern John Stewart low with ease,

129
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:13,000
demonstrating the lasso's frightening potential as a weapon in the wrong hands.

130
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,220
With Wonder Woman's strength and speed, the lasso can be used as both an offensive and

131
00:06:16,220 --> 00:06:18,060
defensive weapon.

132
00:06:18,060 --> 00:06:23,680
And then we have the lasso of truth within the New 52 and DC Rebirth, which is god, I

133
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,440
will never let them let this shit down because it was horrible.

134
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:32,280
So the lasso in the New 52, also called the Golden Perfect, is a long-cherished divine

135
00:06:32,280 --> 00:06:36,640
relic of the Amazons, handed down by the patron gods to their chosen people's champion as

136
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:38,300
a symbol of trust.

137
00:06:38,300 --> 00:06:42,720
When Steve Trevor first came to Themyscira, Diana had earned the Perfect after winning

138
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:47,520
the championship game to decide who would return him and his fallen brethren to man's

139
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:48,520
world.

140
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:52,380
The lasso also requires the purest of hearts in order to wield it, meaning between the

141
00:06:52,380 --> 00:06:56,000
two users, the Perfect lasso chooses the wielder it has judged most worthy.

142
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,600
So basically, there comes wielder.

143
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:02,600
That's why I said the New 52 is fucking stupid.

144
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:07,880
Over the following years, Diana and various others would discover some of its unique powers

145
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:11,720
and properties, such as tethering hearts and minds together in various individuals could

146
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:18,680
become better understanding of one another, creating a telepathic rapport between them

147
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:23,560
and everyone holding onto it, and enabling language translation and memory and emotional

148
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:24,560
sharing.

149
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:30,240
The lasso also boasts a powerful binding and sealing ability, seeming to pulsate with an

150
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:34,840
innate energy that can entrap and tame the souls of gods and demigods alike.

151
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:40,400
It can also be used as a lifeline in order to seek out those who are lost to the user,

152
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:45,280
but this requires an emotional connection to someone for this to actually work.

153
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:49,640
It also forces those entrapped with the Perfect to face their own falsehoods.

154
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:55,840
Those who have been altered in a metaphysical manner are forced to undergo a biophysical

155
00:07:55,840 --> 00:08:02,640
reset when ensnared by the Lariat, making the enhanced revert back to their base self.

156
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:07,000
This can relieve an individual from the effects of toxins or poisons as well as seize the

157
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:08,440
effects of mind control.

158
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,800
So that's got a bunch more abilities from the New 52.

159
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:20,880
And also ruins Felix Faust's suppose.

160
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:31,000
He's like he's taking on the entire justly and she rolls up like is that the fucking

161
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:37,800
belt he just fucking gives up that that fucking whip God dang it I'm done I'm done.

162
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,400
The next one I have on the list is the cosmic treadmill.

163
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,320
The cosmic treadmill.

164
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:43,320
You lose you've heard of that too.

165
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,800
I've heard of it but I don't remember anything about it.

166
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:46,800
Oh really?

167
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,320
The lead designer of it was Barry Allen.

168
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:50,820
Place of creation was Central City.

169
00:08:50,820 --> 00:08:54,640
The place of destruction was the Nexus in the Arrowverse only not within the actual

170
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,360
comic books.

171
00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:00,120
Previous owners are Barry Allen, Flash Museum and Eobard Thawne.

172
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:04,640
It first appeared in December of 1961 in the Flash number 125.

173
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,400
Be something they would make back then.

174
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:07,400
Yeah.

175
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,680
It's a treadmill right but it's like it's like go backwards in time.

176
00:09:10,680 --> 00:09:12,000
Yeah forwards in time.

177
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,680
Just fucking smoke and we and I'm like I'm like the faster you go the faster through

178
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:20,000
time you go and then like you can start going through different dimensions and it just passes

179
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:21,000
out.

180
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:25,800
All right so it was powered by cosmic rays and was coordinated with radioactive pulses

181
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,480
from a cosmic ray clock.

182
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,120
It released positive radiation when moving forwards and then it's used into the future

183
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,160
and negative radiation when moving backwards and then it's used into the past.

184
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:35,560
This will give you fucking cancer.

185
00:09:35,560 --> 00:09:36,560
Yes it does.

186
00:09:36,560 --> 00:09:39,160
Jesus radiation back and forth.

187
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,360
Near the end of its construction Barry only had one bug to fix.

188
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:47,000
The positive radiation which sent him into the future caused an electromagnetic reaction

189
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,920
in his body charging him with positive ions and making him a living magnet.

190
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:52,920
And gave him a tumor too.

191
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:53,920
All the radiation.

192
00:09:53,920 --> 00:10:00,040
Like a ball of food like a fucking fist right in his gut.

193
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,120
Barry used the cosmic treadmill in many of his exploits.

194
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,880
He needed only to program what year he wanted to go to and jump on.

195
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:12,480
He had to keep an intent he had to keep an internal vibration while in the new time period.

196
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:16,080
As soon as he wanted to return to the 20th century he just released the internal vibration

197
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,080
as he went home.

198
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,040
I don't know why I thought about this like that vibration stuff.

199
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:20,040
Just imagine him in bed.

200
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:21,040
Like you ready girl?

201
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:22,040
He just started like.

202
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:27,000
Didn't they make fun of that in the flash TV show?

203
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:28,000
I don't know.

204
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,840
He was getting excited and he started vibrating.

205
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,280
I don't know but that's some freaky shit.

206
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,000
Imagine he's a freak.

207
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,000
Faces third.

208
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,080
Like oh baby I'm sorry.

209
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,040
He used to travel to the 21st century.

210
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:46,600
25th finger game must be immaculate though.

211
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,600
No girl is ever unhappy.

212
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,600
No butthole ever unfi.

213
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:57,800
It brings both fingers out.

214
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:03,240
He used it to travel to the 25th century and to save the future from an atomic clock that

215
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:07,240
had been sent there in a time capsule and was going to turn into an atomic bomb.

216
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,160
On his trip he had his first encounter with Professor Zune.

217
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:15,840
Before the crisis of infinite earths he could also be used to travel to other universes.

218
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:20,080
After Barry's disappearance during the crisis Jay Garrick and Wally West along with the Earth

219
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:24,560
One and Earth Two Superman used the treadmill to travel to Earth Two only to find a black

220
00:11:24,560 --> 00:11:25,920
void.

221
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,520
Wally noted that it was destroyed beyond repair after the trip.

222
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:32,000
However that must not have been the case since it appeared in later stories.

223
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,240
Guess he was wrong.

224
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,960
The cosmic treadmill eventually became into the possession of the Flash Museum.

225
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:43,720
It was an instrumental in Wally West's defeat of Professor Zune in the museum.

226
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,080
Wally threatened to use it to visit Zune as a young man in the future and torment him

227
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:48,560
or just kill him in a scribe.

228
00:11:48,560 --> 00:11:51,360
That's kind of fucked up.

229
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:55,600
How funny that would be like the darkest like some superman just gets that right.

230
00:11:55,600 --> 00:12:00,280
Like all you see in the panel is like it's a dark fucking baby room right.

231
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,400
And like there's nothing in the first panel.

232
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,320
Then like the next panel is Zune in the shadows of the room right.

233
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,760
The next panel is you see him walking up to the crib.

234
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:12,160
The next panel is the baby in the crib.

235
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:13,560
The next panel is Zune right.

236
00:12:13,560 --> 00:12:16,040
Then the next panel is him fucking punching in the crib.

237
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:17,040
You never see him punch the baby.

238
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,040
You just hear like baa baa baa.

239
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:21,560
How fucked up.

240
00:12:21,560 --> 00:12:22,560
That is fucked up.

241
00:12:22,560 --> 00:12:24,560
And this is Wally threatening him.

242
00:12:24,560 --> 00:12:26,840
Well damn that's the fuck.

243
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:28,400
That's why something more fucked up.

244
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,360
Yeah that's why something more fucked up.

245
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,680
I mean Barry I checked you off at high speed when you were moving your first gun and I

246
00:12:33,680 --> 00:12:35,440
killed you in your crib.

247
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,440
Oh man.

248
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,480
Wally sent the controls to Zune's era.

249
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:43,440
Began to run and jumped off so fast that Zune couldn't see him.

250
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:48,800
Thinking that Wally had really gone into the future Zune chased him.

251
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:53,280
They have super like like they have hyper awareness right because of their super speed.

252
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,000
He didn't see him jump off.

253
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,200
They can't see me jump to the he just jumped out of the side.

254
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,200
So that motherfucker's gone.

255
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,520
God dang Harry and the baby.

256
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,720
I better follow after him.

257
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:10,200
Zune chased after him only to be sent to his home century defeated.

258
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:14,760
After ginning they put the calculations perfectly for him to end up being right in jail.

259
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:19,000
Like just pass like pass go don't get $200 straight to jail.

260
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,000
Fuck.

261
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:28,560
After Ginny Ognatz excess of the legion of superheroes had been stranded in the 20th

262
00:13:28,560 --> 00:13:31,120
century she was trying to find a way to return to her friends.

263
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:35,720
It just so happened that another time traveler John Fox flash of the 27th century was also

264
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:37,400
in town at the time.

265
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:41,480
He using technology from his own suit reconfigured the treadmill so that Ginny would not have

266
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:45,000
to keep internal vibrations to remain in the 30th century.

267
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,440
The treadmill eventually wound up in an antique shop in the 25th century.

268
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:52,480
With the fucking illustrious ending it was such a powerful device.

269
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:53,880
It looks like a treadmill.

270
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,480
It's an old guy's fucking attic.

271
00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:00,880
There it was stolen by Yobar Thong who used it to travel back to the 20th century and

272
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:01,880
pose as Barry Allen.

273
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:07,680
He just torches Korea by being the worst flash ever.

274
00:14:07,680 --> 00:14:12,200
That would suck so bad.

275
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,960
Next item that we have from the DC universe is the bracelets of submission.

276
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:21,920
Ah, so that I can get behind?

277
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:22,920
Wonder Woman's next item.

278
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:23,920
It's exactly.

279
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,920
They only work on Felix Vowles for stuff.

280
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,920
It's like son of a bitch.

281
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:30,920
Everything she's got.

282
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:34,200
It's not even her villain and everything that she's got works against her.

283
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,560
Why do you keep fucking with me?

284
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,960
So the current owner obviously is Wonder Woman and the Amazon.

285
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:41,920
By the way I didn't know it was actually Wonder Woman.

286
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:42,920
Yeah the bracelets of submission.

287
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:43,920
Wow.

288
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:49,000
I'm fucking hit that one on the nail or hit the nail on the head on that one.

289
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,000
First appeared in 1942 in January.

290
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:52,000
It was 1942.

291
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,000
I wonder who wrote it.

292
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:55,560
All Star Comics number 8.

293
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:56,560
Oh lord.

294
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,280
That man was like hurry.

295
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:00,280
The bracelet.

296
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:04,960
By the way I like the fact that you can like someone can portray their freak in such an

297
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:05,960
innocuous way.

298
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:06,960
Yes.

299
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:08,480
Like you can just put it right under the sensors.

300
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,280
That man was deep into bondage.

301
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,280
He could somehow put it into a kid's fucking comic book.

302
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,440
Or she loses her powers when she's in bondage.

303
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:19,920
Yeah but like somehow like it's just enough that it's not like censored.

304
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,000
Because you're not really paying that much attention.

305
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:23,000
It's like okay.

306
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,280
She always ends up bound up.

307
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,280
Yeah always ends up bound up.

308
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,080
Always somehow escapes or someone frees her.

309
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:30,080
Uh huh.

310
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:31,080
That she beats the villain.

311
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:32,080
Yeah.

312
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:33,080
Weird.

313
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,080
Because you wouldn't think about that as a kid.

314
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,160
But man it's like your dad walks in on what you're reading and he's like what the fuck

315
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:38,160
is this?

316
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:42,680
I need to see more of these.

317
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,920
Alright so the bracelets of submission are given to every Amazon at the age of 15.

318
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:47,920
At which time.

319
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,440
Damn at least wait until they're 18 you fucking freak.

320
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:56,440
At which time they pledge themselves to the service of Aphrodite.

321
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:57,440
One night with Aphrodite.

322
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:58,440
Yes.

323
00:15:58,440 --> 00:15:59,440
At the age of 15.

324
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:00,440
Oh fuck.

325
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,060
Used primarily for defense.

326
00:16:02,060 --> 00:16:05,840
They were also used in the trial game known as bullets and bracelets.

327
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:06,840
Bullets and bracelets.

328
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,320
In which in Amazon would deflect bullets using their bracelets.

329
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:11,320
Her silver bracelet?

330
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:12,320
Is that what they are?

331
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:13,320
Oh I.

332
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:14,320
They're called bracelets of submission.

333
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:15,320
Oh.

334
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:16,320
Oh.

335
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:17,320
Oh.

336
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:18,320
Good lord.

337
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,880
The bracelets had one serious disadvantage however.

338
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,640
As they were not bulletproof.

339
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:27,120
As they would remove the wearer's strength if any man willing chains on them.

340
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:28,120
Oh of course.

341
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:32,560
That's why they're called submission chains.

342
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:34,520
Oh lord.

343
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:35,520
On New Earth though.

344
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,640
Let's just imagine him sitting in his fucking office just smoking a cigar right.

345
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:40,560
Uh bracelets of submission.

346
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:44,400
Fucking writing a full fucking 22 page story.

347
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:45,400
Half an hour.

348
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:46,960
Fucking rock fucking hard.

349
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:48,640
Like any week fucking go.

350
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,960
You know how many different stories are probably on rule 34 about that.

351
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,120
They don't need rule 34.

352
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,960
That motherfucker did it himself within the actual continuity.

353
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,040
All right.

354
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:00,040
On New Earth though.

355
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,200
Despite having an increased durability.

356
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,760
Durability that allows them to withstand blunt force.

357
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,680
The Amazons are still vulnerable against smaller projectiles.

358
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:10,680
They use uh.

359
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:11,680
They're like Captain America.

360
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:12,680
Kind of yeah.

361
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,000
Like he was like he could take a beating.

362
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,000
But he still got shot.

363
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:17,000
He still got hurt.

364
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,000
Right.

365
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:22,320
Uh basically they wear the bracelets to deflect arrows and bullets.

366
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:23,320
That's their whole point.

367
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:24,320
It's good.

368
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:25,320
It's awesome yeah.

369
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:29,800
Wonder Woman has a special pair created by Hephaestus from the remains of Zeus's igus.

370
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:34,280
The shield that had been destroyed in battle against Cronus and Hera secreted the remains.

371
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:38,500
The silver bracelets with red stars were meant for the champion of the Amazons.

372
00:17:38,500 --> 00:17:42,880
Which Diana became after winning the contest by bullets and bracelets.

373
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:47,640
Basically they're blindfolded and yeah they got uh they got black bullets yes.

374
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:52,240
On Prime Earth the bracelets are worn by all Amazons of Themyscira and are used for protection

375
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:53,400
in combat.

376
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,120
Created from the metal of Athena's Olympian Aegis shield.

377
00:17:56,120 --> 00:18:00,280
They also double as potent restraining bolts and limited Amazons true power.

378
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,960
Enabling a massive strength boost whenever they are relinquished.

379
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:08,200
Diana had her own pair of bracelets modified by the blacksmith's god Hephaestus.

380
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:13,960
While these modifications she can still use any number of weapons created in his forger

381
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,020
wheel.

382
00:18:15,020 --> 00:18:16,640
So it basically allows her to draw her sword.

383
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,520
However they weaken them that doesn't make any sense.

384
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,040
That's like the worst fucking trade-off.

385
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:21,040
Yeah.

386
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:25,280
Maybe like if I had boots that made me like super speed but they made me blind.

387
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:27,240
If you ever played Merrowind you know exactly what I mean.

388
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:28,240
Yeah.

389
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:29,840
You know these boots called boots of blinding speed?

390
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:30,840
But they made you blind.

391
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:31,840
Yeah.

392
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:36,400
And what's really weird in Prime Earth Wonder Woman's bracelets were forged from 8th metal.

393
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,320
Now there's an Nth metal.

394
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:39,320
Oh yeah.

395
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,120
Like the whole metals series.

396
00:18:41,120 --> 00:18:43,120
That were like Nth.

397
00:18:43,120 --> 00:18:44,120
Nth metal?

398
00:18:44,120 --> 00:18:45,120
Yeah.

399
00:18:45,120 --> 00:18:46,120
I hate that word.

400
00:18:46,120 --> 00:18:47,120
Nth.

401
00:18:47,120 --> 00:18:48,120
Nth.

402
00:18:48,120 --> 00:18:49,120
Nth metal.

403
00:18:49,120 --> 00:18:56,480
So in Prime Earth it was like part after the new 52 it's just it's gotten weird.

404
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,600
So the weird part is the fucking feather they get weaker when they put them on.

405
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,040
Just like the trade-off is way like yeah I can block bullets but I can't lift a fucking

406
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:04,040
feather.

407
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:05,040
Yeah.

408
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,520
It is a weird trade-off.

409
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:12,120
But I guess like if they were in an actual fight and they knocked them off they'd get

410
00:19:12,120 --> 00:19:13,120
a huge boot.

411
00:19:13,120 --> 00:19:14,120
Like it just knocks someone's head off.

412
00:19:14,120 --> 00:19:15,120
Yeah.

413
00:19:15,120 --> 00:19:16,120
Fucking boom.

414
00:19:16,120 --> 00:19:18,560
Just turn around and just a gun punch.

415
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,640
It's like their whole stomach is just knocked out of their body.

416
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:22,640
Yeah.

417
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:23,640
Spine just angling.

418
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:24,640
God.

419
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:28,720
Alright next one we have is the Mobius Chair.

420
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:30,720
The Mobius Chair number one now?

421
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:31,720
Two.

422
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:32,720
Number two?

423
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:33,720
Number two.

424
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,560
So Batman used that how many jokers are there?

425
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:36,560
Yes.

426
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:37,560
There's 273.

427
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:38,560
Yep.

428
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:43,680
It first appeared in New Gods number one in 1971.

429
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,960
Previous owners are Wally West, Thomas Wayne Jr., Bruce Wayne, Metatron, and Mobius.

430
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:48,960
Wally West?

431
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:49,960
Mm-hmm.

432
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,120
So on a new god artifact.

433
00:19:53,120 --> 00:19:54,120
It was.

434
00:19:54,120 --> 00:19:55,120
Okay.

435
00:19:55,120 --> 00:19:56,120
It was.

436
00:19:56,120 --> 00:20:00,680
Basically on New Earth, obsessed with his quest for knowledge, Metatron dedicated his

437
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:04,480
life to the creation of a device that could traverse time and space.

438
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:08,400
He called the device the Mobius Chair and empowered he needed element X, the same element

439
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,200
he used to create the boom tubes.

440
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:14,720
However, knowledge came with a cost and to get enough element X for the Mobius Chair,

441
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:19,320
he had to make a bargain with Darkseid, giving Apocalypse the technology of the boom tube.

442
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:23,280
Logically, Darkseid used the technology to make war with New Genesis.

443
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:24,280
Surprise.

444
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,320
Metatron used the chair.

445
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:27,320
Alright, here's the deal.

446
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:28,640
I'll give you this right for that.

447
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:29,640
You cannot invade us.

448
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:30,640
He's like, bad deal.

449
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:31,640
Like the next day, surprise.

450
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:32,640
Surprise, motherfucker.

451
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:33,640
You fucking promised me.

452
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:34,640
It's like at the store, you're not getting cash back, are you?

453
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:35,640
Of course not.

454
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:36,640
Oh, you liar.

455
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:37,640
You passed 40 back.

456
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:55,120
For like 200 back, I'm like, God dang.

457
00:20:55,120 --> 00:21:01,320
So Metron used the chair to travel through time, space, and other dimensions at will.

458
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,320
Mobius Chair was equipped with the tractor beams powerful enough to pull a planet from

459
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:05,320
a Torbidon.

460
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:06,320
Jesus.

461
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:07,320
So it's a very powerful.

462
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,080
It just throws the fucking moon into the sun.

463
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:15,600
On Prime Earth, the chair was created by Mobius, also known as the Anti-Monitor, to assist

464
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:17,240
in his quest for knowledge.

465
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,640
He later gave it to Metron, but it was taken from him by Batman.

466
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,760
So I'm gonna take this chair, by the way.

467
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,280
How the fuck you take a whole fucking chair?

468
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:29,080
Did you see Batman walk out with it over his shoulder like I'm leaving with this?

469
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,160
Fuck you.

470
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,520
After the events of the Dark Side War, Alman took control of it for a short time, making

471
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:37,720
Grid with him inside of the chair.

472
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:42,360
However, when Alman, Grid, Metron, and the Mobius Chair arrived on the moon, they met

473
00:21:42,360 --> 00:21:45,240
a mysterious force that killed them all, leaving the Mobius Chair vacant.

474
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:50,040
Yeah, it was lack of oxygen.

475
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,560
The chair reappeared during Wally West's travels across the multiverse.

476
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:57,640
It helped Wally understand how the events of Flashpoint ended up unmooring him and his

477
00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:58,640
kids from reality.

478
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,720
Yeah, but it fucked up the entire continuity of reality.

479
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:02,720
Yes.

480
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:07,000
After spending one night with his kids, Wally willingly sat on the chair, allowing himself

481
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,480
to take possession of the knowledge it held.

482
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:13,280
After seeing his kids safely return, Wally realized that the chair was actually touched

483
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,240
by the mysterious force granting it its power.

484
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:17,240
So.

485
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:20,080
Some of the capabilities.

486
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,080
Wait, does it have a sentence?

487
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:24,080
Yes, someway, yeah.

488
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:25,240
So, capabilities.

489
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:29,800
The Mobius Chair is Metron's technological masterpiece and allows him to cross time,

490
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,760
space, and enter into dimensional barriers.

491
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:37,800
Its only known power source is Element X. Some of its functions resemble a mother box,

492
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:39,800
such as a two double A.

493
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:41,800
Oh, fuck it, really.

494
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,360
That would be so fucked up.

495
00:22:44,360 --> 00:22:47,640
We got 9-Ball in the bag.

496
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,800
So it allows nigh omniscience.

497
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:55,040
The Mobius Chair gives its user near omniscience, sight, and understanding of the universe.

498
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,840
It contains all knowledge of the new gods, maps and history of all locations visited

499
00:22:58,840 --> 00:22:59,840
by Metron.

500
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:04,320
It also later imbued the power with the Doctor of Manhattan.

501
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,520
This added Manhattan's atemporal vision to the chair.

502
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,480
Cutting along with his fucking blue dick swinging back and forth.

503
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,040
And ability to see the past, present, and future simultaneously.

504
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,400
Shit, that would be fucking jarring.

505
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,280
Especially for our type of limited perception.

506
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:20,280
Yes.

507
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:21,800
Having to see everything at once.

508
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:22,800
Like shit myself.

509
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,800
And then you'd not shit yourself.

510
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,640
And then you'd deal with the aftermath of shitting yourself.

511
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:30,640
All at once.

512
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,640
Like all at the same time.

513
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:39,240
I gave it the absolute incomprehensible reality of all of existence.

514
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,760
I shit myself and I've just finished shitting myself.

515
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,440
And you haven't yet?

516
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,360
It's a shame of shitting myself.

517
00:23:46,360 --> 00:23:47,720
All at the same fucking time.

518
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:49,200
All points in time.

519
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:53,560
And also 40 years later when they made the like, what happened to you shit yourself?

520
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,600
All at once.

521
00:23:55,600 --> 00:24:00,440
Demobius's chair main capability is to travel and teleport through space, time, and other

522
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,280
dimensions in a matter of mere seconds.

523
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:03,640
It can also fly.

524
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:04,640
Or hover on.

525
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:05,640
That would be the point.

526
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:07,120
Just fucking as it can teleport everywhere.

527
00:24:07,120 --> 00:24:10,280
That would be the least of its abilities.

528
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:15,480
Due to Dr. Manhattan imbuing his anti-crisis energy into the chair, Wally West was able

529
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:19,400
to draw upon it this energy to also project energy.

530
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,080
Like as an energy projection.

531
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:26,280
The Mobius chair enables its user to survive the rigors of space and other environments.

532
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:30,200
Because otherwise it would be fucked up.

533
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,280
It can also has a powerful force field to protect itself from any attacks and can also

534
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,300
be used to contain enemies.

535
00:24:36,300 --> 00:24:39,360
Even metahumans with the power to phase cannot cross this field.

536
00:24:39,360 --> 00:24:43,240
So Wally West couldn't phase into it.

537
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:47,240
It can create holograms like it bumps into it and high speed and just fucking disintegrates.

538
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:48,240
Yeah.

539
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:49,240
Shit.

540
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:54,120
It can create holograms to distract his enemies or display information.

541
00:24:54,120 --> 00:24:57,480
The Mobius chair chooses who is worthy and capable of using it.

542
00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:01,840
If the person isn't worthy, its power will overwhelm and outright kill the individual

543
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:02,840
trying to use it.

544
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,320
And just like a whole bunch of spikes just come out of the bottom and rush straight up

545
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:06,320
in your ass?

546
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:07,320
Yeah.

547
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:08,320
Like oh shit.

548
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:14,760
The chair requested Tempus Fuganat to bring Wally West to be its host, determining him

549
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,800
to be worthy of wielding this power.

550
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:21,200
And the last artifact that we have is the Spear of Destiny.

551
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:22,240
Okay.

552
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,520
So it is a unique bottle.

553
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,360
That's like it's classified as unique.

554
00:25:27,360 --> 00:25:28,360
Bottle.

555
00:25:28,360 --> 00:25:29,360
Model.

556
00:25:29,360 --> 00:25:30,360
Oh model.

557
00:25:30,360 --> 00:25:31,360
A unique bottle.

558
00:25:31,360 --> 00:25:32,360
A random bottle.

559
00:25:32,360 --> 00:25:35,760
It is the only version of the Spear of Destiny.

560
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:39,260
So there's not a different one within any of the Earths.

561
00:25:39,260 --> 00:25:41,520
There is one Spear of Destiny.

562
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,160
Just one universe?

563
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,960
Like it can be found within any of the universes, but there is one.

564
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:47,960
That's wild.

565
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:52,120
Like any others don't have its power to it.

566
00:25:52,120 --> 00:25:55,320
It's reported to be the spear that pierced Christ's side on the cross.

567
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,500
The spear holds supernatural powers, which allows the possessor to control the minds

568
00:25:58,500 --> 00:26:00,700
of superpowered beings.

569
00:26:00,700 --> 00:26:02,600
Current owner is the Justice League.

570
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,320
So how we were wondering about that when we talked about Spectre.

571
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:09,080
Oh yeah, who had the Justice League is the one that has it.

572
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:18,600
Previous owners, the Signals of Magic, Gaius Cassius, Dragon King, Superman, Vandal Savage,

573
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:23,240
and the one and only Adolf Hitler.

574
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:27,000
So that's why the Spectre didn't fight during World War II.

575
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:34,880
First appearance was in 1977 in Weird War Tales number 50.

576
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:36,640
What a fucking great choice for a title.

577
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:37,640
Weird War Tale.

578
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:38,640
Yeah, Jesus.

579
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,800
So yeah, that's the Spear of Destiny.

580
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:43,800
Has many abilities.

581
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,720
One of them is to ruin Felix Fowl's spells.

582
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:50,200
But this too, huh?

583
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:51,200
It's like this too shall pass.

584
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,200
Like everything just fucks with his spells.

585
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,320
The Braceless, the Surrender, the fucking Mobius Chair.

586
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:57,320
Yeah.

587
00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,360
So let's see here.

588
00:26:59,360 --> 00:27:03,080
In World War II, the spear had many different owners throughout the years.

589
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:06,320
The spear's most pivotal role came in World War II as it fell into the hands of Adolf

590
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:07,320
Hitler.

591
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:11,080
The control of the spear by the Third Reich prevented American superheroes, particularly

592
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:16,760
those magic-based origins or powers, from intervening in the war, creating a sphere

593
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:21,680
of influence that would affect both heroes to fall, that would affect such heroes to

594
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,840
fall under Hitler's sway whenever they came into it.

595
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:25,840
That's dangerous.

596
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:26,840
Yeah.

597
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:30,720
The spear was used towards the end of the war by the cornered Captain Nazi who attacked

598
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:34,560
the specter with it, nearly killing him and precipitating the end of the war.

599
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:39,360
However, before his loss, Hitler used a magical ritual to taint the weapon, corrupting any

600
00:27:39,360 --> 00:27:43,280
who wielded it with his greed and power lust.

601
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:47,280
So in the modern era, after the war, the spear came into the hands of the Allies and was

602
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,200
placed in storage in the United States.

603
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:53,000
It would emerge years later during a time when the specter was considered out of control,

604
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,360
having destroyed the entire nation of Vlata...

605
00:27:55,360 --> 00:27:56,360
Vlatava.

606
00:27:56,360 --> 00:27:57,360
Vlatava.

607
00:27:57,360 --> 00:28:01,240
...President Bill Clinton ordered the spear retrieved and asked Superman to confront the

608
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:02,240
specter with it.

609
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:03,240
Give me that spear.

610
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:06,000
I did not have sexual relations with that spear.

611
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,840
I did fuck her butt.

612
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,200
As it was widely accepted that the spear was perhaps the only weapon on Earth that could

613
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:16,320
actually harm him, Superman ticked the spear and headed for Japan, where the specter was

614
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,600
grappling with a water elemental sent on a rampage by night.

615
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:20,600
Please fuck it.

616
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:21,600
He was fighting Godzilla.

617
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,600
The specter just don't worth fighting Godzilla.

618
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:25,600
He was fighting Godzilla.

619
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:29,440
Let's see here.

620
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,880
The spear was also capable of injuring or slaying the elemental itself.

621
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:38,600
Unfortunately, it was not realized until after Superman was in the air how deep the taint

622
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,640
of the spear was.

623
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,680
Superman beheld the vision where he used the spear to take over the world, slaying all

624
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:48,560
of his allies and close friends before being confronted at last by Batman.

625
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,480
Superman was able to deny the vision and reject the spear.

626
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:59,440
The specter bound the spear inside of a rocky boulder with the ashes of Vlatova and casted

627
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:00,440
into Earth's orbit.

628
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,720
Geez, I'm just fucking floating out there.

629
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:04,880
Yeah, pretty much.

630
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:09,680
During the Day of Judgment, the rogue angel Asmoletl seized control of the vacant specter

631
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:10,680
force.

632
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,920
How badass would it have been if they had continued that storyline of Superman being

633
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:14,920
tainted by the spear?

634
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:16,480
Yeah, well they kind of did.

635
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:21,920
There's just like one panel where he's like on top of like maybe like he's outside of

636
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,880
a hollowed out White House sitting in the Oval Office.

637
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:25,880
The spear's on the table.

638
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,080
He's just like leaning back in the chair.

639
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,840
Like he didn't like shadow over his eyes, but his eyes are blood red.

640
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:31,840
Yeah.

641
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:32,840
The lasers.

642
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:33,840
Damn.

643
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:38,040
Where he basically becomes that one movie with a kid that has Superman's powers, Bright

644
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:39,040
Bird.

645
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:40,040
Yeah.

646
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:41,040
Basically the same thing.

647
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:42,040
Let's see.

648
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:48,160
During the Day of Judgment, the rogue angel Asmoletl seized control of the vacant specter

649
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,960
force and literally froze over hell.

650
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:51,960
Earth's heroes split.

651
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,960
Real cold today, huh?

652
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:56,840
Earth's heroes split into three groups.

653
00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:00,320
One led by Superman went into hell to reignite the fires.

654
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:06,200
A second led by Wonder Woman attempted to retrieve Jim Corrigan from heaven and re-bond

655
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:07,200
him to the specter.

656
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:10,200
Imagine being on like the fucking A-Team.

657
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,200
Like can I go to heaven?

658
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:13,200
I gotta go to hell.

659
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:14,200
You know what I mean?

660
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:15,200
Like can we draw straws?

661
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,200
Imagine Superman just flying into hell.

662
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,200
You know by himself he'd be fine.

663
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:22,200
I gotta go.

664
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,200
I don't need to go with him.

665
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:26,200
I got a couple questions here.

666
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,200
Do I have to go to hell?

667
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:30,200
Yeah.

668
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:35,760
And the third led by Captain Marvel ventured into space to retrieve the spear.

669
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:39,200
Captain Marvel was able to withstand the taint long enough to deal a crippling blow to the

670
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:45,200
specter, weakening him long enough for Hal Jordan, who was retrieved from purgatory instead

671
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:49,920
of Corrigan, to become the new host for the specter.

672
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,660
Once joined, this new specter cast the spear back into space.

673
00:30:53,660 --> 00:30:57,200
On another occasion, Felix Faust, he's like, guess who's back?

674
00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:02,480
Wonder Woman gets her last.

675
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:06,880
You can't keep a good man down.

676
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:12,800
Felix Faust and Cersei both attempted to gain control of the spear and simultaneous yet separate

677
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,640
plots they both tried to get at the same time.

678
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,120
Taking advantage of circumstances to seize it with their magics.

679
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:21,120
That is a good story.

680
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:24,680
No one ever sees like two villains having like similar plots and they come to conflict

681
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:25,680
with each other.

682
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:29,560
So like they're not really like, they're not working together.

683
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,320
So they kind of foil each other's plans without the heroes knowing.

684
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,120
So they kind of save the world themselves.

685
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,440
And fuck it with each other.

686
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,120
We need to see a comic like that though.

687
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:39,120
I'm sure they've been done.

688
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,120
Gotta get Marble and DC to call me.

689
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:42,120
Let's see.

690
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:47,320
Only to be thwarted by the Justice League and the Justice League elite respectively.

691
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:49,600
Recently the spear fell into the hands of the Dragon King.

692
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:55,120
However, the spear is now thought to be lost thanks to intervention by Wildcat and the

693
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:57,340
Flash Jayaruk.

694
00:31:57,340 --> 00:32:02,240
So according to like with their input, it's lost to randomness.

695
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:03,240
Since I'm some old man's addict.

696
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:07,120
Get the fuck off of my damn lawn.

697
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:08,760
Final Crisis.

698
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,880
During the event of Final Crisis, Renee Montoya on the question.

699
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,040
It's my girl right there.

700
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:15,040
Continue to call.

701
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,080
They can swap brands for me.

702
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,080
I'll be Renee Montoya.

703
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:20,080
The alternate version.

704
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,840
That's the guy.

705
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:23,840
Continue to her personal.

706
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:25,360
Oh, I did like Rosie Perez as Renee Montoya.

707
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:29,160
But then again, I also had a crush on Rosie Perez.

708
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:38,680
Cause in the Harley Quinn spinoff with the Birds of Prey, she was Renee Montoya in the

709
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:39,680
movie.

710
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:41,520
But the movie in general was horrible.

711
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:42,520
So nobody really watched it.

712
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:43,520
I watched it.

713
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:44,520
I watched it.

714
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:45,520
Of course.

715
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,560
We know why you watched it.

716
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,840
Let's see.

717
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:55,680
She was basically continuing her personal vendetta to hunt down the memories of the

718
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:57,360
religion of crime.

719
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:03,920
Who had sworn to kill her for denying her role as their leader after accidentally killing

720
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:04,920
their original leader?

721
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:05,920
The members.

722
00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:06,920
Who's their chosen disciple?

723
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:07,920
Al Capone?

724
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:08,920
I don't understand.

725
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:09,920
What is it called?

726
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:10,920
The culture of crime?

727
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:11,920
Or what is it?

728
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:12,920
The culture of crime?

729
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:13,920
The religion of crime.

730
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:14,920
Religion of crime.

731
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:15,920
Wow.

732
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:16,920
Bambas number one enemy.

733
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:17,920
Crime.

734
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:18,920
It's like their god.

735
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:19,920
Antichrist to them is fucking Bambi.

736
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:20,920
Holy shit.

737
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:21,920
I'm so sorry.

738
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:22,920
I'm so sorry.

739
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:27,920
I'm so sorry.

740
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,920
I'm so sorry.

741
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:31,920
Worshiping a religion.

742
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:32,920
That is so wild.

743
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:33,920
The religion of crime.

744
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:34,920
Yes.

745
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:40,280
The members were looking for the mythical rock which Cain used to kill Abel.

746
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:44,960
Renee tried to fight off the members, although they actually did find the rock.

747
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,640
Shortly afterwards, Crispus Allen showed up as the specter.

748
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:49,880
Some random disciple brings the rock.

749
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:50,880
It's Cain's rock.

750
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,000
You know, he put his name on it.

751
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,040
It's a mark, a sharpie of Cain.

752
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,040
But he spelled it wrong so it's C-A-N-E.

753
00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:58,040
What?

754
00:33:58,040 --> 00:33:59,040
What?

755
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:00,040
What does he think?

756
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:01,040
Yeah.

757
00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,080
I swear this is Cain's rock.

758
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:06,520
Look, he wrote his name on it.

759
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:11,360
But Crispus Allen showed up as the specter and informed her that it is her time to be

760
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:12,360
judged.

761
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,720
There was also a...

762
00:34:14,720 --> 00:34:18,720
They were also in possession of the spear, using it as a rock in a ceremony on Vandal

763
00:34:18,720 --> 00:34:19,720
Savage.

764
00:34:19,720 --> 00:34:20,720
A rock?

765
00:34:20,720 --> 00:34:23,520
That was the rock that Cain had used?

766
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:27,120
Oh, but they said using the spear as a rock or also as a rock.

767
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:28,120
Using it and the rock.

768
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:29,120
Ah, okay, okay.

769
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:30,120
Sorry if I misspoke.

770
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,000
Nah, you got it here, right?

771
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,840
Cain was then reborn in Savage's flesh.

772
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,080
He then led an army of followers to Gotham.

773
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,200
Baby likes a little bitch.

774
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:43,400
Before he managed to best the specter and plunge the weapon through him.

775
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:48,720
This separated the specter itself from the spirit and its host, rendering it a slave to

776
00:34:48,720 --> 00:34:49,720
Cain.

777
00:34:49,720 --> 00:34:51,120
Cain attempted to corrupt the Radiant.

778
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:52,560
I'm also a slave to Cain.

779
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,080
The Rays and Gains.

780
00:34:55,080 --> 00:35:01,000
Cain attempted to corrupt the Radiant, God's spirit of mercy, tempting her by offering

781
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:04,100
the deaths of the killers of her human host.

782
00:35:04,100 --> 00:35:09,320
When the Radiant refused, he had the specter utter the anti-life equation, unmaking creation

783
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:11,520
itself and rebuilding it in the name of Darkseid.

784
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:12,520
Say 2 plus 2 is 5.

785
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:14,720
It's just disintegrating reality.

786
00:35:14,720 --> 00:35:15,720
Or if you're...

787
00:35:15,720 --> 00:35:16,720
God, Terrence...

788
00:35:16,720 --> 00:35:21,040
What the fuck is his last name?

789
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:22,040
The fucking crazy guy.

790
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,360
The black guy that played Iron Man.

791
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:25,360
The character in Iron Man.

792
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:26,360
Terrence Howard again?

793
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:27,360
Yes, yes, yes.

794
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,320
If it was him, it's 1 times 1 is 2.

795
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:31,320
One times one is two.

796
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:35,520
You didn't believe mine, huh?

797
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:40,560
However, the question and Huntress managed to reclaim the spear, though they incurred

798
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:42,960
serious injuries during doing it.

799
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,800
The Radiant healed Huntress, but cannot heal the question until the relic is purified of

800
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:47,800
its taint.

801
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,680
That wouldn't be like, oh, you heal her, but I'm all fucked up and you don't get to shit

802
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:51,680
for me, huh?

803
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:52,680
Pretty much.

804
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,200
I gotta be the question, please, give me a chance.

805
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:59,120
Something that can only be accomplished by using it to heal a soul rather than destroying

806
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:00,120
it.

807
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:03,480
The question did this by using the spear to resurrect Jake Allen, the son of the specter's

808
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:04,900
human host.

809
00:36:04,900 --> 00:36:09,480
This brought hope and peace to the spirit of Crispus Allen, who managed to reclaim control

810
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:11,240
of the specter force.

811
00:36:11,240 --> 00:36:16,640
He then used the spear's power to change the world to what it once was, dealing absolute

812
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:22,000
judgment upon Kane and his followers, except for the killers of Sister Clarence, the Radiant's

813
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:28,520
human host, so she could forgive them before they died.

814
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,120
That's the last that we've seen of the spear.

815
00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:32,120
Yeah.

816
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:34,440
Probably the question's pocket, for all we know.

817
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:35,440
But maybe.

818
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:36,800
This isn't his trench coat.

819
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:41,440
But if you notice, the spear of destiny always has a connection with the specter.

820
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:45,240
So that's a way that it's now an evil artifact as opposed to being a good item.

821
00:36:45,240 --> 00:36:48,280
Well, at this point, it is back to a normal good artifact.

822
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:49,280
Okay.

823
00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:55,480
Like, at least at this point, I'm sure somebody's gonna rewrite it to where it changes.

824
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:59,080
For the moment, it's a good force.

825
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:01,200
As Satan licked the spear and became evil again.

826
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:05,560
See, what I got, though, from reading and researching that is that the specter can utterly

827
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:08,520
fucking anti-life equation.

828
00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:13,160
What Darkseid has been looking for for God knows how long.

829
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:16,400
I just imagine Darkseid, like, in his room one day, like, late at night, it's like four

830
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:17,400
in the morning, right?

831
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:18,400
Yeah.

832
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,000
Like, the candles are low because he's been, you know, burning candles at both ends, that

833
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:22,000
whole little saying.

834
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:23,000
Yeah.

835
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,600
And he just fucking just, the desk is full of fucking paper, just fucking pushing it.

836
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:26,600
Like, ah, fucking.

837
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:31,320
Like, my life has no meaning.

838
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:34,360
One of those, like, despairing days where you're like, you try to get an idea to work

839
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:35,760
and it never works.

840
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:36,760
Yeah.

841
00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:38,400
Do you fucking flip your desk over?

842
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:41,600
I've had plenty of those where you want to.

843
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,720
So I start flipping tables like, Jesus.

844
00:37:44,720 --> 00:37:46,320
All right.

845
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,560
His wife comes in, his wife, just some random Ashley.

846
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:51,760
It's like a random white girl.

847
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:52,760
Ashley.

848
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:54,440
It's like, baby, are you okay?

849
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:55,960
No, I'm not okay.

850
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:56,960
Come back to bed, honey.

851
00:37:56,960 --> 00:37:59,960
I know, I gotta find the anti-life equation.

852
00:37:59,960 --> 00:38:02,960
You don't understand.

853
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:04,600
Oh, fuck.

854
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:05,600
All right.

855
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:07,080
And it's about your father again.

856
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:10,080
Don't you bring up my father.

857
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:11,560
Did he kill his father?

858
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:12,560
Oh, fuck it, no.

859
00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:13,560
I'm pretty sure he did.

860
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:14,560
You know, I killed that man.

861
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:15,560
And he killed his brother.

862
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:16,560
I'm sure it was justified.

863
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:17,560
They're all evil.

864
00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:18,560
Darkside's a good man.

865
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:19,560
He's a good man on hard.

866
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:20,560
Vote Darkside 2024.

867
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:21,560
All right.

868
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:28,740
Basically, for today in our character spotlight, we have a little bit of a

869
00:38:28,740 --> 00:38:32,960
mystery, so the first one is the Phantom Stranger.

870
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:38,840
Basically, for today in our character spotlight, we have the Phantom Stranger.

871
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:45,400
So publication history for him, the Phantom Stranger first appeared in Eponymous.

872
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,400
He appeared in a prom.

873
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,400
He appeared in a porn first.

874
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:53,400
The Phantom Stranger.

875
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:58,400
No stranger than the Phantom.

876
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,080
In 1956, issued comic anthology published in 1952.

877
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:04,840
It was created by John Broom and Carmine.

878
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:06,720
John Broom sounds like a character name.

879
00:39:06,720 --> 00:39:07,720
I know.

880
00:39:07,720 --> 00:39:08,720
And Carmine Infantino.

881
00:39:08,720 --> 00:39:13,720
That's a funny character.

882
00:39:13,720 --> 00:39:18,700
After an appearance in Showcase number 80 in February 1969, he receives another series

883
00:39:18,700 --> 00:39:24,520
beginning May through June of 1969 that lasted until February through March of 1976.

884
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:28,600
The Showcase appearance and his first three issues of Phantom Stranger consisted of reprints

885
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:34,400
from both the 1950s title and Dr. 13 Ghostbreaker feature from the last nine issues of the Star

886
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,480
Spangled Comics in the same time.

887
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:40,520
Then it must have been like a fucking whole thing where you get a comic book.

888
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:41,520
Yeah.

889
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:45,000
Because you couldn't just go out there and just grab a back issue.

890
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:46,000
No.

891
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:53,280
Which is like, because him appearing in 1969 and then again in 1976, that's a good time

892
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:54,280
frame.

893
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:57,320
It's like if you're like, so that one story you really liked and then you lost the comic

894
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,240
book and you can't find it anywhere.

895
00:39:59,240 --> 00:40:01,400
One day you go into the fucking bin and like, oh shit.

896
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:02,400
He's back?

897
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:06,520
It's like, oh, the reprints and I've been looking for this story and I lost them.

898
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:07,520
Yeah.

899
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:13,000
These had Dr. 13 certain that the Phantom Stranger was an imposter determined to expose

900
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:14,000
him.

901
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:19,040
Beginning with issue number four, November through December of 1969, the series began

902
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:26,360
featuring all new material with stories produced by Robert Kanagay, Lynn Wayne, Jim Apparo,

903
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:31,360
Neil Adams, Tony Dzeniga.

904
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,600
You got to be careful about that.

905
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:34,920
And others.

906
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:38,920
In these stories, while the Strangers past remained a mystery, the writers added a semi-regular

907
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:40,840
cast of characters with him.

908
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:44,420
A demonic sorcerer named Tala would become his arch enemy.

909
00:40:44,420 --> 00:40:49,800
An alchemist slash sorcerer named Tanarac was first an enemy and would later assist

910
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:51,860
him against the Dark Circle.

911
00:40:51,860 --> 00:40:54,800
And a blind psychic named Cassandra Craft would assist him.

912
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:59,280
The stories hinted at a romantic retraction between the Stranger and Craft, but he eventually

913
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:02,960
left her, deciding she could not be a part of his life, convincing her that he had been

914
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:04,920
killed in their final battle against the Dark Circle.

915
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:05,920
I can't handle this strange.

916
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:06,920
I gotta go.

917
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:08,920
That's all the porn he has.

918
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:10,280
He just leaves her.

919
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:11,280
Just leaves?

920
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:13,920
With his hat, a trench coat, butt ass naked underneath.

921
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:17,680
She eventually learned differently and turned up occasionally.

922
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:22,680
Dr. Thirteen dropped along with reprints, was given a backup series, here as of number

923
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:30,200
12, 1971, was morphed into The Spawn of Frankenstein in number 23, 1973.

924
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:36,960
The second volume originally ended and was a 40 issue, with the 41st issue in November

925
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:41,640
of 1975, cover dated March 1976.

926
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:47,800
In January 2010, a 40 second issue was added to the second series during the Blackest Night

927
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,080
event, effectively a one shot.

928
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:51,080
The Blackest Night.

929
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:53,520
So there wasn't anything printed.

930
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:55,520
What did you see between them and...

931
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:56,520
75 and 2010.

932
00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:57,520
God dang.

933
00:41:57,520 --> 00:41:58,520
Yeah.

934
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:04,760
A backup series in the Saga of the Swamp Thing, number 1 through 13, featured the Phantom

935
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:05,760
Stranger.

936
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:09,440
Most of these were short stories written by Mike Barr.

937
00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:11,600
One was written by Paul Levitz.

938
00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:15,280
There were mostly morality tales in the style of the Phantom Stranger, number 2, without

939
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:20,040
connections to the character's Bronze Age continuity with Batman or the Justice League.

940
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:24,400
One two part story explicitly connected with the continuity of volume 2, continued in the

941
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:26,440
story of Tanarac.

942
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:29,740
After the backup series ended with number 13, the Stranger appeared in the main story

943
00:42:29,740 --> 00:42:32,280
of Saga of the Swamp Thing, number 14.

944
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:36,640
After Saga of the Swamp Thing became Swamp Thing, volume 2, written by Alan Moore, the

945
00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:40,800
Stranger became an occasionally reoccurring character, as Swamp Thing became more involved

946
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:45,480
with the afterlife and the mystical world.

947
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:50,440
Volume 3 series for him, the Stranger also starred in a mini-series in 1987.

948
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:53,280
The series portrayed him as an agent of the Lords of Order.

949
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:56,520
They temporarily stripped the Stranger of his powers due to his desire to continue to

950
00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:58,520
battle against the Lords of Chaos.

951
00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,820
This went against the wishes of the Lords of Order, who had believed a victory by the

952
00:43:01,820 --> 00:43:05,500
darkness over light was necessary and preordained.

953
00:43:05,500 --> 00:43:10,120
This series featured Eclipso as the agent of Chaos.

954
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:11,440
Action Weekly.

955
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:16,280
So during the period of 1988-89 when Action Comics became the anthology Action Comics

956
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:19,280
Weekly, one rotating strip featured the Phantom Stranger.

957
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:23,520
It explicitly continued the continuity of the Phantom Stranger from volume 2 to the

958
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:25,000
70s.

959
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:29,120
The story of volume 2 in the Action Weekly strip was resolved in Neil Gaiman's proposed

960
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:33,120
story concluding the whole of Action Comics.

961
00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:34,120
This was published years later.

962
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:35,600
Neil Gaiman was active that long ago?

963
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:36,600
I don't know.

964
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:37,600
Fuck.

965
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:38,800
In the late 80s.

966
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:39,800
Jesus.

967
00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:45,720
This was published years later as a non-canonical and Green Lantern Superman Legend of the Green

968
00:43:45,720 --> 00:43:46,720
Flame.

969
00:43:46,720 --> 00:43:52,000
In this story, the Stranger claims that he belongs to no group, including the servants

970
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:53,440
of the Lords of Order.

971
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:57,200
The Lords of Order threaten to strip him of his powers and he leaves, claiming that he

972
00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:59,920
shall continue to wander.

973
00:43:59,920 --> 00:44:00,920
We have volume 4.

974
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:01,920
These boots were made for walking.

975
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:02,920
That's what I'm about to do.

976
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:07,520
And he just fucking walks out and these boots will walk all over you, bitch.

977
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:12,960
In volume 4, the Phantom Stranger received a new ongoing series in September 2012 written

978
00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:14,960
by Dan Didio.

979
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:15,960
So Dan Didio.

980
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:16,960
Dan Didio.

981
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:18,240
Fucked up all of them.

982
00:44:18,240 --> 00:44:19,240
Dan Didio.

983
00:44:19,240 --> 00:44:21,840
And drawn by Brent Anderson.

984
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:27,640
The series was retitled as Trinity of Sin, the Phantom Stranger, as an issue number 9

985
00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:29,120
and canceled as of number 22.

986
00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:34,800
And this happened from August of 2013 to October of 2014.

987
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:37,480
As a member of the Justice League membership, the Phantom Stranger is better known for his

988
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:41,560
role as a supernatural assistant to other heroes such as the Justice League.

989
00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:46,040
His status was either a full reserve or honorary member of the Justice League is debatable

990
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:47,040
though.

991
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:51,560
As a vote of the majority of the team in the Justice League of America number 103, they

992
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:56,920
offered him membership with Superman declaring that the Stranger, a member without qualification,

993
00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:58,740
though he left before accepting.

994
00:44:58,740 --> 00:45:03,940
This issue was part of an unofficial meta-fictional crossover with Marvel Comics, spanning titles

995
00:45:03,940 --> 00:45:06,760
from both of the major comics companies.

996
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:12,920
Beginning in Marvel's Amazing Adventures number 16, the story continued in DC's Justice League

997
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:14,240
of America number 103.

998
00:45:14,240 --> 00:45:16,760
It was concluded in Thor number 207.

999
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:17,760
Which is?

1000
00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:18,760
Yeah.

1001
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:21,000
So it went between the two.

1002
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:27,320
Each comic featured writers Steve Englehart, Gary Conway, and Lynn Wayne, as well as Wayne's

1003
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:34,840
first wife, Glenys, interacting with Marvel or DC characters as the Ruthlyn Halloween

1004
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,840
Parade in Ruthlund, Vermont.

1005
00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:41,760
The Phantom Stranger has at least twice asserted his membership status when other leaguers

1006
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:43,280
challenged his input.

1007
00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:46,640
During the vote on the League's readmission of Wonder Woman, and during the crossover

1008
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:50,800
with the Avengers, he pulls out a laminated pass.

1009
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:51,800
See that?

1010
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:52,800
See bitch, I am.

1011
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:53,800
JLA right there.

1012
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:54,800
Pulls it out like Sheldon Cooper.

1013
00:45:54,800 --> 00:46:00,160
He's working and pulls it over his feet, pulls it over his neck, there you go.

1014
00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:05,200
In contrast, many in-story accounts of League membership fail to include the Stranger.

1015
00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:09,800
When Zatanna was admitted as a member, Superman and Hawkman clarified that the 12-member limit

1016
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:14,920
of the Justice League's charter had been rewritten previously to admit Heart Girl as the 13th.

1017
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:19,240
Writer Lynn Wayne commented on the Phantom Stranger's relationship with the JLA in a

1018
00:46:19,240 --> 00:46:23,840
2012 interview, stating that the character only sort of joined.

1019
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:27,760
He was offered membership but vanished, as per usual, without actually accepting the

1020
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:28,760
offer.

1021
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:32,720
Over the years, other writers have just assumed he was a member, but in my world, he never

1022
00:46:32,720 --> 00:46:33,720
really was.

1023
00:46:33,720 --> 00:46:34,720
Damn.

1024
00:46:34,720 --> 00:46:35,720
Fuck.

1025
00:46:35,720 --> 00:46:40,560
So, in-story lore for him as the origin.

1026
00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:44,320
Unusual for comic book characters of such longevity, nothing in the way of personal

1027
00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:49,040
data about the Phantom Stranger, like his real name, his true nature, or his origins,

1028
00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:50,560
have ever been revealed.

1029
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:57,320
In 1987, DC produced a special issue in Secret Origins that postulated four possible origins

1030
00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:58,320
for him.

1031
00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:03,920
Number one, in a variation of the Wandering Jew story, he has a man named Isaac with a

1032
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:15,880
wife Rebecca and a young son in Bethlehem during the time of Jesus' childhood.

1033
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:22,280
When King Herod heard that there was a child born that would become the king of the Jews,

1034
00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:26,880
he ordered the massacre of the innocents to kill the Christ child.

1035
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:29,240
Among the people killed were Isaac's wife and son.

1036
00:47:29,240 --> 00:47:30,240
Damn.

1037
00:47:30,240 --> 00:47:33,600
Blind with anger, he spent the next thirty years raging against Jesus.

1038
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:38,920
During the Passion of Jesus, Isaac bribes a guard to let him take place and participate

1039
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:40,960
in the flagation of Christ.

1040
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:42,920
Jesus condemns Isaac to,

1041
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:46,040
Terry in this world until I come again.

1042
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:50,120
Centuries after the crucification, Isaac repents.

1043
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:55,720
He has spent his life helping mankind ever since, evidently finding the task so agreeably

1044
00:47:55,720 --> 00:48:00,320
fulfilling that to the present day, he politely declines an offer from God to release him

1045
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:01,320
from his penance.

1046
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:04,320
Every year he's like, we good yet, Jesus?

1047
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:05,320
Are we good or not?

1048
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:06,320
Are we good yet?

1049
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:07,320
But he likes doing his job.

1050
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:08,320
What about now?

1051
00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:09,320
Are we good?

1052
00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:13,240
But for real though, are we good or not?

1053
00:48:13,240 --> 00:48:14,240
I'm exhausted.

1054
00:48:14,240 --> 00:48:16,440
I'm tired of walking.

1055
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:21,120
I'm tired boss, I'm tired.

1056
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,840
The number two background that he had.

1057
00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:28,480
The stranger was a man in biblical times who was spared God's wrath by an angel.

1058
00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:31,520
Questioning God's actions, he commits suicide.

1059
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:35,680
The angel forbids his spirit from entering the afterlife, reanimates his body and condemns

1060
00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:42,200
him to walk the world forever as part of humanity, but also forever separated from it.

1061
00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:45,840
The angel also erases all of the man's memories from his past life.

1062
00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:52,040
He then discovers his divine charge to turn humanity away from evil, once all at a time.

1063
00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:56,400
Some versions of this story imply that the angel was the incarnation of the specter in

1064
00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:58,340
that time period.

1065
00:48:58,340 --> 00:49:03,680
So basically the specter is the one that condemned him.

1066
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:07,240
So they're all, well, they give me like the Joker type of origin where I can complete

1067
00:49:07,240 --> 00:49:10,440
like hundreds of different stories.

1068
00:49:10,440 --> 00:49:11,920
The number three possibility.

1069
00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:14,520
The phantom stranger is being caught in a time loop.

1070
00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,480
Near the end of the universe, the phantom stranger approaches a group of scientists

1071
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:22,260
who are trying to transfer energy from the Big Bang to extend the life of the universe.

1072
00:49:22,260 --> 00:49:28,680
The phantom stranger realizes that one of the scientists is a reality of avatar, in

1073
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:33,800
reality an avatar of the anti-life and that their efforts will prevent the universe from

1074
00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:35,060
ever existing.

1075
00:49:35,060 --> 00:49:39,040
The story concludes with phantom stranger passing a portion of himself to a scientist

1076
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:42,440
who dives through the portal to the Big Bang, intercepts the beam that would have drained

1077
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:47,360
the Big Bang and becomes the phantom stranger completing the cycle.

1078
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:48,360
Which is a weird.

1079
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:50,480
It's a weird one so far.

1080
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:52,840
And the fourth origin that came up in the story.

1081
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:54,720
I'm as Ted Danson.

1082
00:49:54,720 --> 00:49:57,560
He was the actor.

1083
00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:02,200
The phantom stranger was a fallen angel who sided with neither heaven or hell during Lucifer's

1084
00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:04,720
rebellion and thus condemned to walk the earth.

1085
00:50:04,720 --> 00:50:07,600
Nah, he's on both sides now.

1086
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:08,600
Over and over.

1087
00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:11,400
Yeah, they're both sides now.

1088
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:15,440
In the comic book mini series, The Trenchcoat Brigade, John Constantine sees the fourth

1089
00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:17,880
origin story is essentially correct.

1090
00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:22,440
Vertigo Visions Phantom Stranger Number One by Alyssa Quintney and Guy Davis builds upon

1091
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:27,320
Alan Moore's fallen angel story from secret origins and adds a story of a woman called

1092
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:31,160
Nama who was condemned to hell for loving an angel.

1093
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:35,880
This angel is strongly hinted to have been the phantom stranger.

1094
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:42,180
Another possible origin was hinted at in the kingdom come, sorry, the kingdom in which

1095
00:50:42,180 --> 00:50:47,440
it was implied that Jonathan Kent, the future son of Superman and Wonder Woman, might grow

1096
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:49,080
up to be the phantom stranger.

1097
00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:50,080
Jesus.

1098
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:51,080
Which is a weird.

1099
00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:52,880
They're storing all sorts of stuff at us.

1100
00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:54,040
Kind of, yeah.

1101
00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:57,880
They also tied some of his abilities into the hyper tine concept, giving him the innate

1102
00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:02,080
ability to enter alternate timelines and to exist in spaces between them.

1103
00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:05,480
The story ultimately revealed this to be a red herring.

1104
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:09,800
The character in question has been deliberately drawn in shadows to suggest that he was the

1105
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:10,800
stranger.

1106
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:16,200
But whenever Wonder Woman finally saw his face, she said that she now realized that

1107
00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:18,160
it was not the stranger they knew.

1108
00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:20,160
You f- oh you f- ugly.

1109
00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:24,360
It was back in the day when you know COVID was going around.

1110
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:25,760
They only had the mask on right?

1111
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:26,760
Yeah.

1112
00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:29,000
And then you know when you started taking the mask off.

1113
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:32,000
It's like ooh.

1114
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:37,160
His appearances and titles featuring Dr. Faith reveal that the stranger was a servant of

1115
00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:40,280
the Lord of Order during the ninth age of magic at least.

1116
00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:43,720
This may be a later development unrelated to his actual origin though.

1117
00:51:43,720 --> 00:51:53,680
In Phantom Stranger numbers zero from 2012, the Phantom Stranger is Judas Iskarot.

1118
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:58,460
He is judged by the Circle of Eternity who are implied to be proxies for a higher power.

1119
00:51:58,460 --> 00:52:01,460
The stranger is condemned to walk the earth forever as an agent of God.

1120
00:52:01,460 --> 00:52:05,200
He wears a necklace made of the 30 pieces of silver which he took as payment for betraying

1121
00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:06,200
Jesus.

1122
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:09,040
So he's just walking with bling.

1123
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:13,040
When the stranger facilitates the transformation of Jim Corrigan into the specter, one of the

1124
00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:16,800
coin falls from the necklace and crumbles bringing him one step closer to redemption.

1125
00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:18,800
Damn that helps years later.

1126
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:22,520
He's got 29 to go.

1127
00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:25,880
And that's what I was talking about when we were talking about the specter how he fucked

1128
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:28,880
up the specter's life basically.

1129
00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:30,560
That was one fucking coin?

1130
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:31,560
Yeah.

1131
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:32,560
One coin.

1132
00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:33,560
What the fuck's he gotta do?

1133
00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:34,560
Jesus Christ.

1134
00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:40,080
In his earliest appearances, the Phantom Stranger would prove supernatural events to be hoaxes

1135
00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:41,760
perpetrated by criminals.

1136
00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:45,560
He would directly confront the villains and display no supernatural abilities apart from

1137
00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:50,760
perhaps his uncanny ability to appear where and when he was needed and to disappear just

1138
00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:51,760
as mysteriously.

1139
00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:53,040
Wait, which version is this?

1140
00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:54,600
This is one of the original versions.

1141
00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:56,480
Like just a regular guy?

1142
00:52:56,480 --> 00:53:00,680
What he, like at least that's what he was portrayed as.

1143
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:02,920
Would nobody have seen him coming or going?

1144
00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:06,120
In later stories, his supernatural events were real and the Phantom Stranger was given

1145
00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:09,520
unspecified supernatural powers of his own to defeat them.

1146
00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:14,040
For example, he was able to control a smoked base sedative with a gesture, claiming that

1147
00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:15,640
smoke itself is an ally.

1148
00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:17,640
Look at this ganja right here.

1149
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:20,280
Look at that sticky icky.

1150
00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:23,040
He just sells weed on the side.

1151
00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:24,040
Chloroform smoke?

1152
00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:30,960
In his second comic book series, the Phantom Stranger became a truly supernatural hero.

1153
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:34,960
The Phantom Stranger played a major part in Neil Gaiman's The Books of Magic, taking

1154
00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:38,560
protagonist Tim Hunter through time to show him the history and nature of magic.

1155
00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:42,560
He has assisted the Justice League on numerous occasions, even being formally elected to

1156
00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:46,920
the group, although he did not acknowledge his membership until Justice League number

1157
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:48,240
143.

1158
00:53:48,240 --> 00:53:49,920
The Stranger also had his own limited series.

1159
00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:52,440
He needed dental work, so that's when he could...

1160
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:55,520
He's a member all of a sudden, like he used to benefit.

1161
00:53:55,520 --> 00:53:58,040
He needed a little help.

1162
00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:03,400
One of the dentists off, he's like, I'm a JLA member, so all my dental work is free.

1163
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:04,960
You know, Bruce pays for it.

1164
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:05,960
I mean Batman.

1165
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:11,800
I just dropped it randomly.

1166
00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:12,800
Bruce Wayne Batman?

1167
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:15,000
Oh, never mind, mind wiped.

1168
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:18,680
Instead of mind wiping, he burns his own place down.

1169
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:22,920
And then you see you smoke better control.

1170
00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:26,400
The Stranger also had his own limited series where, lacking much of his power, he tries

1171
00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:30,280
to foil Eclipso's plan to cause a nuclear war.

1172
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:35,100
During Kevin Smith's relaunch of the Green Arrow, he prevented Hal Jordan from uniting

1173
00:54:35,100 --> 00:54:40,040
with his resurrected body of Oliver Queen with his soul in heaven.

1174
00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,280
This earned him Jordan's wrath indeed.

1175
00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:46,140
The Spectre threatened to judge the Stranger to see whether God had punished him properly

1176
00:54:46,140 --> 00:54:48,160
for refusing him access to heaven itself.

1177
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:49,160
What's the word?

1178
00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:50,160
Double jeopardy, you can't.

1179
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:54,200
You think I'm going to be raised twice for the same crime?

1180
00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:58,160
Nonetheless, the Phantom Stranger assisted Hal Jordan during his tenure as the Spectre

1181
00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:03,160
on numerous occasions as well, most notably in a short stint babysitting Hal's niece,

1182
00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:04,160
Helen.

1183
00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:06,600
Well, another coin drops, finally.

1184
00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:11,280
What the heck, I can't hear a kid.

1185
00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:15,240
You don't understand how fucking brutal this kid was.

1186
00:55:15,240 --> 00:55:19,800
So fucking crayon marks all over his fucking jacket and shit.

1187
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,800
Fucking vomit on his fucking shoes.

1188
00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:23,800
That's all in patterns.

1189
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:28,000
Fucking silly putty in his fucking coat pocket like, God dang it.

1190
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:30,120
This little bitch.

1191
00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:31,120
Fuck them kids.

1192
00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:32,120
I mean this lovely child.

1193
00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:34,560
This fucking kid gets coin back.

1194
00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:42,640
In 2005's Day of Vengeance, God I forgot that it was 2005.

1195
00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:46,840
The Phantom Stranger had been turned into a mouse by the Spectre.

1196
00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:50,320
Upon the Spectre's confrontation and battle with the Stranger, the Stranger states, you

1197
00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:52,400
can't kill me.

1198
00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:54,640
I doubt that the universe would allow it.

1199
00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:58,680
He was still able to advise Detective Chimp, however, who sheltered him in his hat while

1200
00:55:58,680 --> 00:55:59,680
he regained his powers.

1201
00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:01,280
Oh yeah, he was with him the whole fucking time.

1202
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:02,560
I forgot about that.

1203
00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:07,600
He changed back using recovered energies in Day of Vengeance number 6 and aided the Shadow

1204
00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:10,800
Pact, allowing them to see the battle between the Spectre and Shazam.

1205
00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:12,640
And my boys, the Shadow Pact.

1206
00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:13,640
Yup.

1207
00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:15,720
I didn't buy the first issue, I lost it.

1208
00:56:15,720 --> 00:56:16,720
How did you?

1209
00:56:16,720 --> 00:56:20,400
Yeah, I had issue one of the Shadow Pact.

1210
00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:24,240
The series makes a point that the supernatural community generally regards the Phantom Stranger

1211
00:56:24,240 --> 00:56:26,040
as invincible.

1212
00:56:26,040 --> 00:56:31,160
The first reaction to some characters seeing that the Spectre's assault on magic is simply

1213
00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:34,360
to presume that the Stranger will take care of it.

1214
00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:38,480
Other stories have shown the Stranger to be nearly as powerful as the Spectre, which in

1215
00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:45,200
Day of Vengeance, kind of, but like he couldn't beat him, but and the Spectre couldn't kill

1216
00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:46,200
him, so.

1217
00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:47,200
Like a cool.

1218
00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:49,240
We're in an impasse, I see.

1219
00:56:49,240 --> 00:56:52,280
In Day of Vengeance, Infinite Christ Special number 1, the Phantom Stranger works with

1220
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:58,640
Naboo, Dr. Occult, Zatanna, the Shadow Pact, and other mystics to reform the Rock of Eternity

1221
00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:00,600
and help defeat the Madden Spectre.

1222
00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:04,960
The Phantom Stranger's relationships with the other mystics heroes are usually a bit

1223
00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:05,960
tense.

1224
00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:11,400
The Stranger has no qualms gathering various forces to combat a certain evil, often invading

1225
00:57:11,400 --> 00:57:13,960
those people's personal lives.

1226
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:19,360
However, he does not usually extend them the same courtesy.

1227
00:57:19,360 --> 00:57:26,320
The Phantom Stranger has resisted such people as Dr. Fate, although Dr. Fate is, in almost

1228
00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:28,800
any incarnation, an ally of the Stranger.

1229
00:57:28,800 --> 00:57:35,680
Despite this, he does get along well with Zatanna.

1230
00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:45,720
In Justice League of American number 6, he appeared by her side to help her remove the

1231
00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:47,440
influence of Faust.

1232
00:57:47,440 --> 00:58:06,160
His influence, though, on the Red Tornado and in the Justice series, he seems to have

1233
00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:14,920
a fatherly affection for her, calling her my dear.

1234
00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:19,080
Since he is ultimately an unpredictable force, others often meet the Phantom Stranger's

1235
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:20,560
appearance with distrust.

1236
00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:25,000
Nonetheless, most heroes will follow him, seeing not only his immense power, but also

1237
00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:28,040
knowing that the Stranger is, in the end, a force for good.

1238
00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:34,480
He has generally shown two sides with humanity first in many supernatural based problems,

1239
00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:38,400
such as whenever he aided Superman in the confrontation with the magician Eryon, who

1240
00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:44,280
attempted to force Superman to retire in the belief that Superman and other alien heroes

1241
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:48,880
would hold back the darkness that would make civilization, Eryon describing human history

1242
00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:53,000
and existence in a cycle that would allow humanity to develop to a certain point before

1243
00:58:53,000 --> 00:59:00,440
they collapsed and have to start again, for so long that it would destroy humanity whenever

1244
00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:01,680
it came.

1245
00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:06,200
Although the Stranger acknowledged that the future Eryon had foreseen, where Earth was

1246
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:10,900
completely destroyed by the mysterious and powerful Kyber due to Superman delaying him

1247
00:59:10,900 --> 00:59:16,760
for so long that he only struck at his peak was possible, he also told Superman to keep

1248
00:59:16,760 --> 00:59:22,600
fighting to find another way, as the cost in souls and experience if Eryon succeeded

1249
00:59:22,600 --> 00:59:23,600
was too great.

1250
00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:29,040
A notable exception to the heroes who will work with the Stranger is Madame Xanadu, who

1251
00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:32,920
has refused to join the Stranger on a few occasions, although she is a member of the

1252
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:34,360
Sentinels of Magic.

1253
00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:39,040
Eventually, it is revealed that Madame Xanadu's hatred for the Phantom Stranger stems from

1254
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:43,520
his involvement in the events costing young Namu her powers and heritage and turning the

1255
00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:57,040
young Faye into the immortal yet powerless Clairvoyant.

1256
00:59:57,040 --> 01:00:01,160
The Stranger also holds a unique relationship with the Spectre, as the two forces often

1257
01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:02,580
come into conflict.

1258
01:00:02,580 --> 01:00:06,120
He was responsible for gathering a group of mystic heroes to combat the Spectre whenever

1259
01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:10,960
he lost his human host Jim Corrigan, seemingly losing control of the Spectre.

1260
01:00:10,960 --> 01:00:15,480
The Phantom Stranger participated in Jim Corrigan's funeral whenever Corrigan's soul finally

1261
01:00:15,480 --> 01:00:17,640
earned its rest and left the Spectre.

1262
01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:21,920
The Stranger subsequently became one of the forces that stood against the Spectre whenever

1263
01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:26,660
he went on the rampage without a human host until the soul of Hal Jordan bonded with him.

1264
01:00:26,660 --> 01:00:32,760
The Stranger occasionally took on an adversary role to the Spectre in Infinite Crisis number

1265
01:00:32,760 --> 01:00:38,280
6, aware that the Spectre has yet another new host, the Phantom Stranger gathered a

1266
01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:44,040
large group of magic wielders in an unsuccessful attempt to solicit the Spectre's assistance

1267
01:00:44,040 --> 01:00:59,960
in the crisis.

1268
01:00:59,960 --> 01:01:04,560
In the Madam Xanadu series, the first encounter between the then young and innocent Namu,

1269
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:10,680
as Xanadu was known in the Arthurian age, the Phantom Stranger himself is told.

1270
01:01:10,680 --> 01:01:18,640
There, Namu acknowledges his unearthly nature, describing him as ageless and yet so uneasy,

1271
01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:25,400
claiming you're not human, nor are you of the ancient folk, nor Faye creature, nor demon.

1272
01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:44,720
Before Namu was able to grasp his nature, the Stranger goes away, claiming to be compelled

1273
01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:49,000
by council and yet forbidden to interfere in the course of history.

1274
01:01:49,000 --> 01:02:05,080
In the pages of Shadow Pack, the Phantom Stranger has adopted the role of narrator.

1275
01:02:05,080 --> 01:02:10,320
He is shown to be aware of the mystical happenings not only to Earth but across several dimensions.

1276
01:02:10,320 --> 01:02:15,560
Once again, he is shown to be unable to interfere, no matter how dire the danger is that he's

1277
01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:16,560
watching.

1278
01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:44,920
In Blackest Night, Black Hand refers to the Phantom Stranger as neither dead nor alive,

1279
01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:48,320
meaning he cannot be killed, resurrected, or raised as a Black Lantern.

1280
01:02:48,320 --> 01:02:52,440
The Stranger watches as a Black Lantern ring attaches itself to Crispus Allen's body,

1281
01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:56,880
turning him into a Black Lantern and sealing the specter with an M. In the tie-in, one-shot

1282
01:02:56,880 --> 01:03:01,100
revival of Phantom Stranger number 42, the Stranger, with the help of Blue Devil attempts

1283
01:03:01,100 --> 01:03:03,560
to fight the Black Lantern specter, befails.

1284
01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:07,920
The two then travel to Nanda Parbat, where the Stranger helps Deadman remove the black

1285
01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:09,500
ring from his body.

1286
01:03:09,500 --> 01:03:17,440
The Stranger has the body brought into Nanda Parbat and placed under guard, stating that

1287
01:03:17,440 --> 01:03:20,080
it is of singular importance.

1288
01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:25,660
In the New 52, Special Edition 1 as part of the New 52 reboot, the Phantom Stranger was

1289
01:03:25,660 --> 01:03:33,080
implied to be Judas Iskarot and part of the Trinity of Sin with Pandora and the Question.

1290
01:03:33,080 --> 01:03:35,880
Those are all allegations and lies?

1291
01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:39,600
While not named explicitly, the necklace he wears is presumed to be made of the thirty

1292
01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:43,440
pieces of silver he received from the betrayal of Jesus Christ.

1293
01:03:43,440 --> 01:03:47,860
His hair and eyes became totally white from the experience.

1294
01:03:47,860 --> 01:03:53,000
Phantom Stranger number 0 confirmed that Phantom Stranger was once known as Judas Iskarot,

1295
01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:54,880
the man who betrayed Jesus.

1296
01:03:54,880 --> 01:03:59,800
In his origin tale, he is about to hang himself whenever with a suicide attempt, stopped by

1297
01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:01,640
a mysterious group of individuals.

1298
01:04:01,640 --> 01:04:07,160
He is subsequently judged along with a Pandora of Pandora's Box fame and another man who

1299
01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:08,840
was turned into the Question.

1300
01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:12,080
He's Narcissus or whatever the fuck he was.

1301
01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:15,560
Thousands of years later, he is guided to help desperate former detective Jim Corrigan

1302
01:04:15,560 --> 01:04:17,340
find his kidnapped girlfriend.

1303
01:04:17,340 --> 01:04:21,200
He leads him to the abandoned warehouse where she has been kept, but this turns out to be

1304
01:04:21,200 --> 01:04:22,200
a trap.

1305
01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:25,000
Corrigan is killed by the kidnappers, then transformed into the Spectre and accuses the

1306
01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:26,200
Stranger of betraying him.

1307
01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:29,840
That one was fucking dumped in a barrel and with the men dumped in a fucking pool or some

1308
01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:30,840
shit.

1309
01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:36,600
We said it was a pool somewhere, just someone's pool.

1310
01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:37,600
A pond.

1311
01:04:37,600 --> 01:04:43,560
As the Spectre is about to attack the Stranger, a mysterious voice sends him off to inflict

1312
01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:45,840
his wrath on the more deserving.

1313
01:04:45,840 --> 01:04:49,680
As payment for what occurred with Corrigan, one coin drops off of his necklace that he

1314
01:04:49,680 --> 01:04:50,680
was cursed with.

1315
01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:51,680
Done and done.

1316
01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:55,640
And the Stranger realizes he has more encounters ahead of him before he is forgiven.

1317
01:04:55,640 --> 01:04:57,840
Yeah, like fucking a thousand of them it looks like.

1318
01:04:57,840 --> 01:05:04,240
If it takes that grand of a turning Jim Corrigan into the Spectre.

1319
01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:07,400
That's such a grand gesture for him to just fucking lose a coin.

1320
01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:08,400
That's insane.

1321
01:05:08,400 --> 01:05:09,400
Yeah.

1322
01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:13,280
Pandora meets the Phantom Stranger and tells him that she needs his help to find the person

1323
01:05:13,280 --> 01:05:14,480
who can open her box.

1324
01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:15,480
He refuses.

1325
01:05:15,480 --> 01:05:18,760
He's like, oh, that's a first line to a porno.

1326
01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:19,760
Open my box open.

1327
01:05:19,760 --> 01:05:24,280
He's like, all right, but I gotta tell you, they don't call me that stranger for no reason.

1328
01:05:24,280 --> 01:05:28,120
And you won't remember what happened.

1329
01:05:28,120 --> 01:05:29,880
Get these gas.

1330
01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:33,400
He doesn't tell the room just fucking lights up with like a disco ball comes out of the

1331
01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:34,400
fucking ceiling.

1332
01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:42,080
Colonel, when I went to my home, I go to him and I hello.

1333
01:05:42,080 --> 01:05:46,120
I don't know the words of the song, but you know what the song is about.

1334
01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:50,560
He refuses, reminding her of the last time her box was open.

1335
01:05:50,560 --> 01:05:58,040
You can win the sense of the world.

1336
01:05:58,040 --> 01:06:03,200
Girl you will freak.

1337
01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:04,800
I got time for that bad to see.

1338
01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:06,280
Yeah, you're throwing sense.

1339
01:06:06,280 --> 01:06:08,800
He's like, no girl, not again.

1340
01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:09,800
That's the box.

1341
01:06:09,800 --> 01:06:12,800
My day just barely grew up.

1342
01:06:12,800 --> 01:06:13,800
He'll itself.

1343
01:06:13,800 --> 01:06:14,800
I lost one point.

1344
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,800
I don't mean it.

1345
01:06:17,800 --> 01:06:21,400
I'm releasing all that sin into the world.

1346
01:06:21,400 --> 01:06:35,280
Use those coins as a fucking angel beats.

1347
01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:41,920
To this, she responds that she only wants to save everyone from what she had unleashed.

1348
01:06:41,920 --> 01:06:45,880
John Constantine tries to calm the Phantom stranger to join the Justice League dark by

1349
01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:50,440
promising to return one of the silver coins bound to him through his punishment.

1350
01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:52,800
You give my coin back.

1351
01:06:52,800 --> 01:06:54,040
He'll make the coin come back.

1352
01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:55,040
It's fucked up.

1353
01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:57,040
You have to team new Johnson.

1354
01:06:57,040 --> 01:06:58,040
Johnson.

1355
01:06:58,040 --> 01:07:01,040
So the faster you cause him.

1356
01:07:01,040 --> 01:07:04,440
The Phantom stranger rejects the offer, but Constantine feels he will eventually come

1357
01:07:04,440 --> 01:07:06,800
around to be on the Justice League dark side.

1358
01:07:06,800 --> 01:07:12,760
The question manipulates Doctor 13 to impale the Phantom stranger with the spear of destiny.

1359
01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:16,720
The Phantom stranger is left on the door of the house of mystery and the Justice League

1360
01:07:16,720 --> 01:07:20,480
dark attempt to revive him, summoning the nightmare nurse.

1361
01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:21,480
Jesus.

1362
01:07:21,480 --> 01:07:28,600
Once they do revive him, the Phantom stranger states that they are all in his debt and asks

1363
01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:34,480
the Justice League dark, specifically Zatanna, to help him enter hell and save his family.

1364
01:07:34,480 --> 01:07:39,000
Zario warns the Phantom stranger that he is never allowed to enter heaven again, having

1365
01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:41,440
gone to hell to try to save his family.

1366
01:07:41,440 --> 01:07:45,240
Zario also states to the Phantom stranger that if he tries, he will be erased from time

1367
01:07:45,240 --> 01:07:46,240
in history forever.

1368
01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:47,240
He's like, you promise?

1369
01:07:47,240 --> 01:07:48,240
He should be gone completely.

1370
01:07:48,240 --> 01:07:49,240
Yeah, basically.

1371
01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:53,740
That's what he's looking for.

1372
01:07:53,740 --> 01:07:57,040
So basically the powers and abilities of the Phantom stranger.

1373
01:07:57,040 --> 01:08:01,960
The natures of these are mysterious as the stranger himself, who seems to be effectively

1374
01:08:01,960 --> 01:08:07,840
immortal, never aging, which I don't know why during, you know, like research that,

1375
01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:09,360
you know, you have to use both of those.

1376
01:08:09,360 --> 01:08:10,520
But he doesn't age out.

1377
01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:11,520
He's immortal.

1378
01:08:11,520 --> 01:08:14,320
What if he just kept getting older forever, but he never died?

1379
01:08:14,320 --> 01:08:18,440
That would suck so bad.

1380
01:08:18,440 --> 01:08:21,600
I used to be a young man like you, a little wheelchair.

1381
01:08:21,600 --> 01:08:22,600
Professor X-style.

1382
01:08:22,600 --> 01:08:23,600
Good Lord.

1383
01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:27,000
That would be, that wouldn't be fucked up because, okay, so yeah, he can age.

1384
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:28,000
Great.

1385
01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:29,600
But like if you were a vampire, right?

1386
01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:32,520
And you just keep getting older and older.

1387
01:08:32,520 --> 01:08:33,520
It would suck.

1388
01:08:33,520 --> 01:08:36,280
It would just like crap it all.

1389
01:08:36,280 --> 01:08:37,280
Crap it all.

1390
01:08:37,280 --> 01:08:38,280
Fuck it.

1391
01:08:38,280 --> 01:08:39,280
Skeleton.

1392
01:08:39,280 --> 01:08:43,360
The Phantom stranger has demonstrated enormous powers and capabilities, the exact origin

1393
01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:44,360
of which are undetermined.

1394
01:08:44,360 --> 01:08:49,200
He can travel enormous distances in a very short time, such as the JLA watchtower and

1395
01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:54,760
apocalypse as well as to mystical dimensions such as heaven, hell and the realm occupied

1396
01:08:54,760 --> 01:08:57,520
by the quintessence.

1397
01:08:57,520 --> 01:09:03,960
Which is basically right before heaven because you can't get into actual waiting room.

1398
01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:04,960
Right.

1399
01:09:04,960 --> 01:09:06,240
Number 17.

1400
01:09:06,240 --> 01:09:11,560
He can fire energy bolts of great force, travel through time, dispel magic, reveal illusions

1401
01:09:11,560 --> 01:09:15,400
and specifically feel magic.

1402
01:09:15,400 --> 01:09:16,400
Everything.

1403
01:09:16,400 --> 01:09:20,240
Wonder what affects it.

1404
01:09:20,240 --> 01:09:21,920
Phantom stranger messes with his spells.

1405
01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:25,520
I think everybody we've talked about in this podcast that affects it.

1406
01:09:25,520 --> 01:09:26,520
Naboo.

1407
01:09:26,520 --> 01:09:27,520
Dr. Fate.

1408
01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:31,480
Damn, I can't catch a break around here.

1409
01:09:31,480 --> 01:09:35,120
And survive in space without any type of life support system.

1410
01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:39,040
On one occasion, he created a mystical shield that protected Superman from any spells cast

1411
01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:44,320
against him directly in preparation for Superman's upcoming confrontation with Erion.

1412
01:09:44,320 --> 01:09:46,160
The limits of his power have not been defined.

1413
01:09:46,160 --> 01:09:51,040
In many cases, despite his obvious capabilities, he claims he is not allowed to end a crisis

1414
01:09:51,040 --> 01:09:55,720
directly only to guide others to take the necessary actions.

1415
01:09:55,720 --> 01:10:00,480
The Phantom Stranger's greatest and most well-known power is his mysterious omniscience.

1416
01:10:00,480 --> 01:10:05,160
He seems to know nearly everything about any character and situation he encounters in the

1417
01:10:05,160 --> 01:10:06,240
DC universe.

1418
01:10:06,240 --> 01:10:10,680
And with the JLA Avengers crossover, this extends to the Marvel universe as well.

1419
01:10:10,680 --> 01:10:11,680
Jesus.

1420
01:10:11,680 --> 01:10:12,680
Which is...

1421
01:10:12,680 --> 01:10:14,880
Hey Peter Parker, what the fuck?

1422
01:10:14,880 --> 01:10:17,240
So that means he knows more than Uatu.

1423
01:10:17,240 --> 01:10:18,240
And Uatu watches everything.

1424
01:10:18,240 --> 01:10:19,240
I'm afraid he watches everything.

1425
01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:24,240
With a bit of like his bulbous.

1426
01:10:24,240 --> 01:10:30,920
However, this is disproved in Swamp Thing Annual Number 2.

1427
01:10:30,920 --> 01:10:35,280
This allows him to provide helpful advice and assistance to others.

1428
01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:37,880
He claims that nothing remains hidden from him.

1429
01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:42,920
Is he a stranger just peeking through your window?

1430
01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:47,160
His knowledge has even allowed him to come to the aid of the DC universe characters trapped

1431
01:10:47,160 --> 01:10:48,680
out of their own times.

1432
01:10:48,680 --> 01:10:55,000
In Animal Man Number 19, Animal Man had found himself trapped in the 1960s in a ghost-like

1433
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:58,520
state in between reality and non-reality.

1434
01:10:58,520 --> 01:11:02,800
He wandered listlessly until the Stranger met him and offered to help in hand.

1435
01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:08,560
The Stranger was already aware of Animal Man's current situation and even knew that he was

1436
01:11:08,560 --> 01:11:09,920
from the future.

1437
01:11:09,920 --> 01:11:14,560
In Swamp Thing Number 2, Annual Number 2, the Stranger was not completely aware of all

1438
01:11:14,560 --> 01:11:19,160
the details of Alex Holland's transformation into the Swamp Thing, though he knew enough

1439
01:11:19,160 --> 01:11:23,800
to be aware of the swamp creature's existence in life, but was still surprised whenever

1440
01:11:23,800 --> 01:11:27,680
he encountered the shade of Alex Holland in Heaven, as he had assumed the creature and

1441
01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:29,680
Holland were one and the same.

1442
01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:30,680
But apparently they're not.

1443
01:11:30,680 --> 01:11:32,440
So he's almost omnipotent.

1444
01:11:32,440 --> 01:11:35,040
But just not completely.

1445
01:11:35,040 --> 01:11:39,520
The Phantom Stranger is one of the few true immortals in the DC universe actually incapable

1446
01:11:39,520 --> 01:11:41,000
of being killed.

1447
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:44,600
When attacked by the Spectre in the Day of Vengeance story, the Stranger expressed doubt

1448
01:11:44,600 --> 01:11:49,640
that even the Spectre could kill him, mysteriously adding, I doubt the universe would allow it.

1449
01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:55,120
The Spectre resorted to transforming the Stranger into a harmless mouse after killing the Phantom

1450
01:11:55,120 --> 01:12:00,400
Stranger as killing the Phantom Stranger was indeed beyond the Spectre's power.

1451
01:12:00,400 --> 01:12:05,840
Like the only one that would be able to kill the Phantom Stranger is God, basically.

1452
01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:10,400
Although the Phantom Stranger does not wear a mask, the shadow of his fedora almost constantly

1453
01:12:10,400 --> 01:12:11,400
cloaks his eyes.

1454
01:12:11,400 --> 01:12:15,680
It's about the blue mask over his eyeballs.

1455
01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:17,800
That doesn't mean my head.

1456
01:12:17,800 --> 01:12:19,600
It's just you and your head.

1457
01:12:19,600 --> 01:12:21,880
He never has worn a mask.

1458
01:12:21,880 --> 01:12:22,880
Damn.

1459
01:12:22,880 --> 01:12:27,360
But the perception is actually true.

1460
01:12:27,360 --> 01:12:33,160
When shown unhatted in the Madame Xanadu miniseries, set in the Arthurian age where the Stranger

1461
01:12:33,160 --> 01:12:38,400
disguised as a simple cloak, his eyes appear completely white, devoid of irises and pupils,

1462
01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:45,360
and sunk in a gaunt sad visage.

1463
01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:49,480
Like you still never get any true details out of it.

1464
01:12:49,480 --> 01:12:51,280
But yep, that is Phantom Stranger.

1465
01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:53,480
He hasn't lived quite the life.

1466
01:12:53,480 --> 01:12:54,480
Yeah.

1467
01:12:54,480 --> 01:12:56,360
Neither living nor dead.

1468
01:12:56,360 --> 01:13:00,120
And now we know that Pandora wanted him in her box.

1469
01:13:00,120 --> 01:13:02,040
Open my box, Phantom Stranger.

1470
01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:03,040
Come on, baby.

1471
01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:05,040
I ain't letting that sit into this shit.

1472
01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:06,040
That's bad.

1473
01:13:06,040 --> 01:13:07,640
Who don't want that sitting there?

1474
01:13:07,640 --> 01:13:09,760
Some bad juju right there.

1475
01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:13,320
Last time it happened, you created everything bad.

1476
01:13:13,320 --> 01:13:17,320
You taught these people what they shouldn't have known.

1477
01:13:17,320 --> 01:13:19,840
All righty.

1478
01:13:19,840 --> 01:13:20,840
Ready for some Reddit?

1479
01:13:20,840 --> 01:13:21,840
Yes, sir.

1480
01:13:21,840 --> 01:13:29,960
Let's end this on some hopefully decent ones.

1481
01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:32,560
First one is by boffybisted.

1482
01:13:32,560 --> 01:13:39,520
This person puts yesterday was a normal day, and as usual, my 14 year old son was having

1483
01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:41,280
his post school screen time.

1484
01:13:41,280 --> 01:13:44,120
He's a good kid, so I don't hover too much.

1485
01:13:44,120 --> 01:13:47,680
I went to check on him and noticed he quickly minimized whatever he was watching.

1486
01:13:47,680 --> 01:13:49,960
The hell you look at that boy.

1487
01:13:49,960 --> 01:13:53,280
He said it was just a game stream.

1488
01:13:53,280 --> 01:13:55,800
And I let it slide, but something fell off.

1489
01:13:55,800 --> 01:14:01,080
A bit later, I went back to offer him a drink and caught a glimpse of his screen before

1490
01:14:01,080 --> 01:14:02,240
he could close it.

1491
01:14:02,240 --> 01:14:07,520
He was watching one of those hot tub streams kick to the kick streamer, uh, amaranth.

1492
01:14:07,520 --> 01:14:08,520
Oh, amaranth.

1493
01:14:08,520 --> 01:14:09,520
Yeah.

1494
01:14:09,520 --> 01:14:12,360
For those who don't know, I do because I'm a pervert.

1495
01:14:12,360 --> 01:14:18,600
It's basically a streamer in swim, swimwear, sitting in hot dubs, chatting with viewers.

1496
01:14:18,600 --> 01:14:22,040
It's not explicit, but definitely more on the suggestive side.

1497
01:14:22,040 --> 01:14:24,520
I agree with that.

1498
01:14:24,520 --> 01:14:28,400
I tried to handle it calmly and asked him why he was watching it.

1499
01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:31,480
He got embarrassed and mumbled about being popular.

1500
01:14:31,480 --> 01:14:33,040
I gotta get him.

1501
01:14:33,040 --> 01:14:34,720
Get on girl.

1502
01:14:34,720 --> 01:14:38,920
I explained that while these streams aren't outright bad, they're not exactly suitable

1503
01:14:38,920 --> 01:14:39,920
for his age.

1504
01:14:39,920 --> 01:14:41,920
How old is he?

1505
01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:42,920
Six.

1506
01:14:42,920 --> 01:14:43,920
Fourteen.

1507
01:14:43,920 --> 01:14:44,920
Stop it.

1508
01:14:44,920 --> 01:14:45,920
It's a problem.

1509
01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:49,840
Well, well, let that boy, you know, blossom into his perverted self.

1510
01:14:49,840 --> 01:14:51,320
Let him turn into the next in a way.

1511
01:14:51,320 --> 01:14:53,640
Let him go.

1512
01:14:53,640 --> 01:14:57,000
I told him that he needs to be careful about what he watches online.

1513
01:14:57,000 --> 01:15:01,880
He seemed pretty embarrassed and I let I left him to think it over.

1514
01:15:01,880 --> 01:15:03,360
He just pulled that shit right back.

1515
01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:06,120
He probably now I'm second guessing myself.

1516
01:15:06,120 --> 01:15:07,240
Should I have been stricter?

1517
01:15:07,240 --> 01:15:09,000
Should I trust him to make better choices?

1518
01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:14,480
I'm also thinking about whether I need to set more restrictions on his internet use.

1519
01:15:14,480 --> 01:15:15,640
I mean, he's going to find it.

1520
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:18,080
I'm worried he can't find anything now on the internet.

1521
01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:20,480
It's not going to get any better.

1522
01:15:20,480 --> 01:15:23,960
He's going to go down that rabbit hole and then come back to reality eventually.

1523
01:15:23,960 --> 01:15:25,520
Like, no way, dude.

1524
01:15:25,520 --> 01:15:28,280
He looked at everything and now it's all in orals.

1525
01:15:28,280 --> 01:15:30,520
He went so far down the ladder.

1526
01:15:30,520 --> 01:15:33,000
I went so far down the rabbit hole to burn my fucking.

1527
01:15:33,000 --> 01:15:35,360
He gave me nine omnipotence.

1528
01:15:35,360 --> 01:15:38,560
Nine omnipotence of all sexual matters.

1529
01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:41,080
I can see the past, present, and future of sex.

1530
01:15:41,080 --> 01:15:46,320
Like talk to me in an ethnic.

1531
01:15:46,320 --> 01:15:48,360
So yeah, he's going to.

1532
01:15:48,360 --> 01:15:51,280
So I've seen it all.

1533
01:15:51,280 --> 01:15:55,440
You've seen it all and now you went back to plain bread.

1534
01:15:55,440 --> 01:15:58,520
And now, now my, well, I've seen everything.

1535
01:15:58,520 --> 01:16:01,280
So now, so that's why my stuff is so boring now.

1536
01:16:01,280 --> 01:16:02,560
I learned what I like.

1537
01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:05,000
And it ain't that darn deep.

1538
01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:06,600
Not really.

1539
01:16:06,600 --> 01:16:08,600
Like some new yoga.

1540
01:16:08,600 --> 01:16:11,160
I can watch that shit for three hours straight.

1541
01:16:11,160 --> 01:16:13,320
A woman do some naked yoga.

1542
01:16:13,320 --> 01:16:18,120
I'm very boring in my actual, real, like my actual, like you'll see something like you

1543
01:16:18,120 --> 01:16:22,360
got a curiosity, but like the stuff you really want to, you know, what's the word?

1544
01:16:22,360 --> 01:16:23,360
What's the tag for word for it?

1545
01:16:23,360 --> 01:16:27,760
Check off to is more like a boringly tame for the normal people's.

1546
01:16:27,760 --> 01:16:29,600
People now want to see some weird shit.

1547
01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:33,560
Like people fucking pumpkins or step, step parents shit.

1548
01:16:33,560 --> 01:16:35,280
You don't want the stepsister shit.

1549
01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:38,320
No, a simple man.

1550
01:16:38,320 --> 01:16:39,440
Alrighty.

1551
01:16:39,440 --> 01:16:41,920
Next one is by J2 Ho.

1552
01:16:41,920 --> 01:16:43,600
J2 Ho.

1553
01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:45,760
This person puts this is not satire.

1554
01:16:45,760 --> 01:16:46,760
I wish it was.

1555
01:16:46,760 --> 01:16:49,000
Let me start with that.

1556
01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:52,880
My partner is staying in my house for the week while my parents are away.

1557
01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:56,920
We're doing the typical boyfriend girlfriend stuff, you know, sleeping together, sex, cuddling,

1558
01:16:56,920 --> 01:16:58,960
kissing, showering together, et cetera.

1559
01:16:58,960 --> 01:17:01,760
My boyfriend takes significantly longer showers than I do.

1560
01:17:01,760 --> 01:17:04,160
He spends about 20 minutes in an hour.

1561
01:17:04,160 --> 01:17:05,920
Probably just washing his asshole.

1562
01:17:05,920 --> 01:17:07,560
He spends 20 minutes to an hour basically.

1563
01:17:07,560 --> 01:17:11,400
That's a long time for, damn that's a long fucking time.

1564
01:17:11,400 --> 01:17:13,360
I typically spend 10 to 15 minutes.

1565
01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:14,360
Exactly.

1566
01:17:14,360 --> 01:17:15,360
Like just clean yourself up and go.

1567
01:17:15,360 --> 01:17:17,160
20 minutes is still quite a bit though.

1568
01:17:17,160 --> 01:17:18,160
20 minutes, yeah.

1569
01:17:18,160 --> 01:17:19,160
Like anything faster.

1570
01:17:19,160 --> 01:17:20,160
That's a long shower.

1571
01:17:20,160 --> 01:17:22,040
Like yeah, like 13 max.

1572
01:17:22,040 --> 01:17:24,000
Like I can see like.

1573
01:17:24,000 --> 01:17:28,000
Unless like, I can see 20 minutes if like you've had a long day.

1574
01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:29,000
You're just standing there?

1575
01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:33,680
Yeah, just like, oh, I let that water just fucking, just like wipe this in a way.

1576
01:17:33,680 --> 01:17:34,680
But generally.

1577
01:17:34,680 --> 01:17:35,680
Wipe this in a way.

1578
01:17:35,680 --> 01:17:37,760
Generally though, 20 minutes is a long time.

1579
01:17:37,760 --> 01:17:39,440
That is too.

1580
01:17:39,440 --> 01:17:41,440
But then the hour is the longest.

1581
01:17:41,440 --> 01:17:42,440
Shit.

1582
01:17:42,440 --> 01:17:45,360
The water had been cold by that point.

1583
01:17:45,360 --> 01:17:46,720
Yeah.

1584
01:17:46,720 --> 01:17:51,520
We had a shower a few days ago and left to get dried, giving him some alone time.

1585
01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:53,960
He likes to spend some time by himself to meditate.

1586
01:17:53,960 --> 01:17:59,400
Little did I know, this meditation of the day was merely time for him to plot.

1587
01:17:59,400 --> 01:18:01,280
To plot?

1588
01:18:01,280 --> 01:18:02,280
Once I heard.

1589
01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:03,720
What a fucking murder.

1590
01:18:03,720 --> 01:18:06,680
Once I heard the water go off, I went to give him a towel.

1591
01:18:06,680 --> 01:18:11,200
I took it by accident and admired his naked body inside of the water mist, the water mist,

1592
01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:12,200
hazy mist.

1593
01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:15,120
Naturally, I got curious.

1594
01:18:15,120 --> 01:18:18,960
While he was air drying, waiting for me to hand him a towel, I went up to him and played

1595
01:18:18,960 --> 01:18:19,960
with the ding-a-ling.

1596
01:18:19,960 --> 01:18:25,440
You know, if you gotta say it like that, you should not be doing anything with anybody.

1597
01:18:25,440 --> 01:18:29,560
I was just hitting it off my hand while he was drying his hair.

1598
01:18:29,560 --> 01:18:36,320
Look, it's making the shit out of it.

1599
01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:41,840
It was limp, so it was hitting off of my hand quite easily.

1600
01:18:41,840 --> 01:18:47,280
And it felt good against my palm.

1601
01:18:47,280 --> 01:18:51,760
You know, those door stoppers that people play with.

1602
01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:53,240
That was the way I was hitting it.

1603
01:18:53,240 --> 01:18:54,240
Jesus girl.

1604
01:18:54,240 --> 01:18:57,960
Back and forth, up and down, not sexually.

1605
01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:03,480
Just curious about the male body as an assigned female at birth.

1606
01:19:03,480 --> 01:19:07,760
At one point, he told me, squeeze and pull.

1607
01:19:07,760 --> 01:19:12,240
Though this was the beginning of some, thinking that this was the beginning of some sort of

1608
01:19:12,240 --> 01:19:14,560
shower sex, I did.

1609
01:19:14,560 --> 01:19:16,160
This was a mistake.

1610
01:19:16,160 --> 01:19:21,960
After my gentle grip, then wrapped around his pee-pee, and I tugged a little, I heard

1611
01:19:21,960 --> 01:19:27,160
it rip the fattest, juiciest, earth-breaking fart I have ever heard in my whole life.

1612
01:19:27,160 --> 01:19:28,440
So that's his trigger point?

1613
01:19:28,440 --> 01:19:31,080
You pulling his dignity farts?

1614
01:19:31,080 --> 01:19:34,280
His little trick was the equivalent of the pull my finger trick.

1615
01:19:34,280 --> 01:19:36,480
Yeah, that's what I just assumed.

1616
01:19:36,480 --> 01:19:39,080
With a bit more spice.

1617
01:19:39,080 --> 01:19:42,680
He was laughing his head off while I retracted myself in disgust.

1618
01:19:42,680 --> 01:19:46,600
I left the bathroom raging at his stupid prank while the smell of the fart literally hurt

1619
01:19:46,600 --> 01:19:47,600
my eye.

1620
01:19:47,600 --> 01:19:50,200
The fart in behind him just fucking smeared with shit.

1621
01:19:50,200 --> 01:19:51,200
Liquid shit.

1622
01:19:51,200 --> 01:19:52,200
It just shot out.

1623
01:19:52,200 --> 01:19:53,200
He hit the liquid shit.

1624
01:19:53,200 --> 01:19:54,200
Yeah, basically.

1625
01:19:54,200 --> 01:19:56,880
That's how she ends the story.

1626
01:19:56,880 --> 01:19:59,000
I don't blame her.

1627
01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:01,360
Next one is by Anxious Donut 563.

1628
01:20:01,360 --> 01:20:04,800
This person put, it said that they had to put the 563.

1629
01:20:04,800 --> 01:20:09,520
That means there was 562 other anxious donuts.

1630
01:20:09,520 --> 01:20:13,320
I work as a server in a small restaurant and I'm pretty sure everyone knows that whenever

1631
01:20:13,320 --> 01:20:17,960
a customer doesn't finish their meal or asks for it to be boxed up, we obviously throw

1632
01:20:17,960 --> 01:20:19,120
it away.

1633
01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:22,720
But for the past few weeks or so, instead of throwing the food away after my customers

1634
01:20:22,720 --> 01:20:26,760
are done with their meal, I have been eating leftover remains on their plates.

1635
01:20:26,760 --> 01:20:29,760
Sam, why you, you're starving.

1636
01:20:29,760 --> 01:20:36,160
Yeah, I read that and it's like, oh my god.

1637
01:20:36,160 --> 01:20:40,040
I can already tell something weird happened, like they found some like fucking cigarette

1638
01:20:40,040 --> 01:20:42,360
butt or something off.

1639
01:20:42,360 --> 01:20:47,080
We are not allowed to do this, so I just quickly scarfed it down whenever I returned the place

1640
01:20:47,080 --> 01:20:51,040
to the back, whenever no one was looking.

1641
01:20:51,040 --> 01:20:53,640
I was going okay until suddenly got sick.

1642
01:20:53,640 --> 01:20:55,280
Turned out I had hepatitis A.

1643
01:20:55,280 --> 01:20:56,980
Jesus Christ.

1644
01:20:56,980 --> 01:20:57,980
It's been awful.

1645
01:20:57,980 --> 01:21:01,920
I couldn't help down food for days, not to mention that I've not looked at, that I've

1646
01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:04,280
been looking like a minion for a week now.

1647
01:21:04,280 --> 01:21:09,240
Hepatitis A. I had no choice but to report it at work and also decided that it was a

1648
01:21:09,240 --> 01:21:13,880
good idea to come clean about how I probably got it, which almost got me fired.

1649
01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:19,320
I'm lucky that I got away with only a warning, but I also can't work for the next two weeks.

1650
01:21:19,320 --> 01:21:22,040
I guess it's the consequences of my own actions.

1651
01:21:22,040 --> 01:21:23,680
At least I still have a job.

1652
01:21:23,680 --> 01:21:29,760
Yeah, and hepatitis A. Don't eat off of other people's fucking plate, you nasty bitch.

1653
01:21:29,760 --> 01:21:34,360
I just don't like licking the plates whenever they're taking them back.

1654
01:21:34,360 --> 01:21:42,360
I just imagine they're coming down the walkway to the kitchen, licking the plates clean.

1655
01:21:42,360 --> 01:21:43,360
You nasty motherfucker.

1656
01:21:43,360 --> 01:21:46,280
You're playing the role of a dog.

1657
01:21:46,280 --> 01:21:50,360
Basically, he's eating the scraps after that, but man, they don't get hepatitis A.

1658
01:21:50,360 --> 01:21:51,360
I know.

1659
01:21:51,360 --> 01:21:53,080
You don't get that even from a dog.

1660
01:21:53,080 --> 01:21:54,640
Jesus Christ, what the fuck?

1661
01:21:54,640 --> 01:21:55,640
What person was that?

1662
01:21:55,640 --> 01:21:59,680
What disease does this other person have that just gave him hepatitis A?

1663
01:21:59,680 --> 01:22:03,320
It's like Keith Richards has every disease known to man.

1664
01:22:03,320 --> 01:22:07,280
All right, next one is by YoGingo.

1665
01:22:07,280 --> 01:22:09,920
Yo-gringo, but Yo-gin-go.

1666
01:22:09,920 --> 01:22:17,120
This person put, I work as a customer service representative as a telephone operator, as

1667
01:22:17,120 --> 01:22:20,040
well as a handing email and queries.

1668
01:22:20,040 --> 01:22:24,320
I used to work in the office, but ever since the pandemic, I still work from home now.

1669
01:22:24,320 --> 01:22:29,460
The amount of inquiries, AKA job I have to handle, really depends on amount of customers

1670
01:22:29,460 --> 01:22:32,840
using my company's services and how the system is holding up.

1671
01:22:32,840 --> 01:22:35,000
Today was a very boring day.

1672
01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:41,160
Barely anybody was needing our help, and the number of inquiries was scarce.

1673
01:22:41,160 --> 01:22:45,280
So I thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to take a short nap.

1674
01:22:45,280 --> 01:22:46,720
Maybe about 30 minutes.

1675
01:22:46,720 --> 01:22:52,440
I placed auto-click grid on a communication tool and used the notifications on, turned

1676
01:22:52,440 --> 01:22:57,040
the notifications on, and bumped up the volume so that whenever I received a loud ringing,

1677
01:22:57,040 --> 01:23:00,360
I would wake up, it would wake me up for sure.

1678
01:23:00,360 --> 01:23:02,960
Turned out, it was a bad idea.

1679
01:23:02,960 --> 01:23:07,640
Whenever I woke up about after 30 minutes, I got two messages from my boss asking me

1680
01:23:07,640 --> 01:23:09,600
what the hell I'm doing.

1681
01:23:09,600 --> 01:23:13,560
While I was asleep, I did not miss any calls because there was none.

1682
01:23:13,560 --> 01:23:18,600
However, I slipped on messages from my colleagues asking me about other email-based inquiries.

1683
01:23:18,600 --> 01:23:22,640
I answered their questions immediately and finished my job, leaving no inquiries unanswered

1684
01:23:22,640 --> 01:23:24,600
by the time shift is over.

1685
01:23:24,600 --> 01:23:31,880
However, my boss is still suspicious saying I haven't been able to focus on the job and

1686
01:23:31,880 --> 01:23:35,920
I was away for more than an hour, which is not the case, but it is true that I was sleeping

1687
01:23:35,920 --> 01:23:37,540
on the job.

1688
01:23:37,540 --> 01:23:41,800
The boss says that I still need to explain myself and what I was doing for an hour next

1689
01:23:41,800 --> 01:23:42,800
morning.

1690
01:23:42,800 --> 01:23:43,800
I was thinking to shit.

1691
01:23:43,800 --> 01:23:49,360
I guess I have to spill my guts and say, goodo, I swear that this will never happen again.

1692
01:23:49,360 --> 01:23:52,040
We all know that's a fucking lie.

1693
01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:55,080
Next day, just passing out again.

1694
01:23:55,080 --> 01:23:57,320
Fucking dead asleep in the back of your house.

1695
01:23:57,320 --> 01:23:58,320
Exactly.

1696
01:23:58,320 --> 01:24:00,440
Next one is by KitchenOpening4005.

1697
01:24:00,440 --> 01:24:08,400
This person puts, today I was walking my wonderful miniature dash hounds when I received and

1698
01:24:08,400 --> 01:24:11,680
whenever I reached a field.

1699
01:24:11,680 --> 01:24:16,240
He just turned two and he's full of energy, so I thought he could run around a bit.

1700
01:24:16,240 --> 01:24:19,000
He was having a blast sniffing things and playing chase with me.

1701
01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:22,360
It wasn't too hot, the clouds covering the blasting rays of the sun.

1702
01:24:22,360 --> 01:24:24,800
My dog was dashing like a headless chicken.

1703
01:24:24,800 --> 01:24:27,720
Energy I won't have to entertain later.

1704
01:24:27,720 --> 01:24:28,720
Life was good.

1705
01:24:28,720 --> 01:24:30,240
Interesting fucking word choice of headless chicken.

1706
01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:31,240
So random.

1707
01:24:31,240 --> 01:24:34,720
I don't know why I thought that was weird to me.

1708
01:24:34,720 --> 01:24:35,720
Yeah.

1709
01:24:35,720 --> 01:24:38,020
We walked a little bit and he was going ahead.

1710
01:24:38,020 --> 01:24:39,320
He's the parade leader.

1711
01:24:39,320 --> 01:24:46,140
Once in a while, he'd stop and lag to inspect something, but I called him back each time,

1712
01:24:46,140 --> 01:24:49,560
to which he paddled fast ahead again.

1713
01:24:49,560 --> 01:24:50,560
He trapsed.

1714
01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:53,560
What the fuck is trapsed?

1715
01:24:53,560 --> 01:24:54,560
Probably traipsed.

1716
01:24:54,560 --> 01:24:55,560
Traipsed.

1717
01:24:55,560 --> 01:24:56,560
Yeah.

1718
01:24:56,560 --> 01:24:57,560
Yeah.

1719
01:24:57,560 --> 01:24:58,560
He traipsed and traipsed.

1720
01:24:58,560 --> 01:24:59,560
Tail wagging.

1721
01:24:59,560 --> 01:25:00,560
Traipsed and traipsed.

1722
01:25:00,560 --> 01:25:02,560
That doesn't sound at all.

1723
01:25:02,560 --> 01:25:05,000
Well, traipsing is like just, you know, frolicking.

1724
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:06,000
So traipsed and traipsed.

1725
01:25:06,000 --> 01:25:07,000
So frolicked and frolicked.

1726
01:25:07,000 --> 01:25:08,000
I guess that's what they're trying to say.

1727
01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:09,000
I don't know.

1728
01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:13,040
It's a word I haven't used very often, so you know.

1729
01:25:13,040 --> 01:25:14,960
He was behind again and I called him.

1730
01:25:14,960 --> 01:25:18,080
His little face almost looked like it was smiling as he ran to my feet.

1731
01:25:18,080 --> 01:25:22,000
I grabbed his face behind his ears and gave him a big smooch on his cheek.

1732
01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:23,520
Instantly I knew something was wrong.

1733
01:25:23,520 --> 01:25:26,280
Oh, so terribly wrong.

1734
01:25:26,280 --> 01:25:30,920
Some sort of horrible texture covered my lips, under my nose as well.

1735
01:25:30,920 --> 01:25:32,880
My eyes darted to his cheek.

1736
01:25:32,880 --> 01:25:35,240
Brown smudge covered his red fur.

1737
01:25:35,240 --> 01:25:38,960
He do the thing that my dog used to do is fucking lather themselves in some other dog's

1738
01:25:38,960 --> 01:25:39,960
shit.

1739
01:25:39,960 --> 01:25:40,960
Right, right.

1740
01:25:40,960 --> 01:25:45,520
I held my breath for I knew what was to come.

1741
01:25:45,520 --> 01:25:50,640
Alas, I was never the best in gym and couldn't hold my breath for long.

1742
01:25:50,640 --> 01:25:51,640
Inhale.

1743
01:25:51,640 --> 01:25:56,520
A lovely layer of putrid feces covered air violated my airways.

1744
01:25:56,520 --> 01:26:01,160
Felt it crawl deep inside so much so that my very soul ached.

1745
01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:02,160
I looked at my dog.

1746
01:26:02,160 --> 01:26:05,440
He looked at me, unknowing of what he had just done.

1747
01:26:05,440 --> 01:26:11,400
I spat on the ground and took notice of the long walk around the lake back to my home.

1748
01:26:11,400 --> 01:26:14,040
Gotta walk all the way back.

1749
01:26:14,040 --> 01:26:15,040
Don't kiss the dog.

1750
01:26:15,040 --> 01:26:16,920
You're gonna get sick, my mom always told me.

1751
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:17,920
Well.

1752
01:26:17,920 --> 01:26:22,040
I raced my dog back home, covering my face from watchful neighbors.

1753
01:26:22,040 --> 01:26:25,200
It's just a fucking face full of shit.

1754
01:26:25,200 --> 01:26:29,400
I washed my face five times with dish soap and rinsed my mouth out with it too.

1755
01:26:29,400 --> 01:26:30,400
Dog was next.

1756
01:26:30,400 --> 01:26:32,240
I will always look before I kiss him now.

1757
01:26:32,240 --> 01:26:34,720
I don't know why dogs do that.

1758
01:26:34,720 --> 01:26:37,360
I'm so glad that mine never did.

1759
01:26:37,360 --> 01:26:38,360
So glad.

1760
01:26:38,360 --> 01:26:42,280
All right, next one is by world world.

1761
01:26:42,280 --> 01:26:46,560
God, I can't even read now.

1762
01:26:46,560 --> 01:26:47,560
World illness.

1763
01:26:47,560 --> 01:26:48,560
Quiet.

1764
01:26:48,560 --> 01:26:50,040
It's a weird word.

1765
01:26:50,040 --> 01:26:51,040
It hurt me.

1766
01:26:51,040 --> 01:26:56,040
World illness.

1767
01:26:56,040 --> 01:26:57,040
This happened yesterday.

1768
01:26:57,040 --> 01:26:58,040
We'll see.

1769
01:26:58,040 --> 01:27:00,040
This happened yesterday.

1770
01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:04,360
Bye I guess it's supposed to be but I'm feeling the effects today.

1771
01:27:04,360 --> 01:27:06,960
Let me preface by saying I don't really do weed.

1772
01:27:06,960 --> 01:27:07,960
Preface.

1773
01:27:07,960 --> 01:27:13,680
The only reason I had these gummies is that my my cousin had left them here after visiting

1774
01:27:13,680 --> 01:27:16,380
from out of out of state.

1775
01:27:16,380 --> 01:27:19,600
After mostly having forgotten about these gummies, I found them last week and decided

1776
01:27:19,600 --> 01:27:20,600
to take one.

1777
01:27:20,600 --> 01:27:23,480
I chewed it up and swallowed it immediately.

1778
01:27:23,480 --> 01:27:26,120
The effects were gradual and very mildly mild at first.

1779
01:27:26,120 --> 01:27:28,840
I don't know why you put mildly.

1780
01:27:28,840 --> 01:27:30,760
Yesterday I had routine cleaning at my dentist.

1781
01:27:30,760 --> 01:27:34,920
I haven't been flossing as regularly as I should but let's just say.

1782
01:27:34,920 --> 01:27:37,640
I don't floss at all.

1783
01:27:37,640 --> 01:27:40,960
Let's just say my gums were a bloody mess afterwards.

1784
01:27:40,960 --> 01:27:42,320
Anyway we're fucking dead.

1785
01:27:42,320 --> 01:27:46,360
I've been to the dentist when they fly like me was my like six months checkup.

1786
01:27:46,360 --> 01:27:47,360
Yeah.

1787
01:27:47,360 --> 01:27:49,320
They never fucked up my teeth that I'm bleeding.

1788
01:27:49,320 --> 01:27:52,120
What the fuck kind of floss are they doing to you?

1789
01:27:52,120 --> 01:27:53,120
Jesus.

1790
01:27:53,120 --> 01:27:57,600
Anyways, I decided I was going to have a chill afternoon and take a gummy.

1791
01:27:57,600 --> 01:28:02,120
This time without thinking about it I just sucked on it and let it dissolve in my mouth.

1792
01:28:02,120 --> 01:28:04,800
The effects came down strong and fast.

1793
01:28:04,800 --> 01:28:08,560
I was too high to function I was basically melting into my couch in the entire afternoon

1794
01:28:08,560 --> 01:28:09,720
until I went to bed.

1795
01:28:09,720 --> 01:28:14,600
This morning I wake up and I'm still feeling high although it is much milder now.

1796
01:28:14,600 --> 01:28:17,060
Even so I still have to call off work.

1797
01:28:17,060 --> 01:28:19,760
No way I was going to be able to function well at work today.

1798
01:28:19,760 --> 01:28:22,520
Hey man I can't come in man.

1799
01:28:22,520 --> 01:28:23,520
Yeah.

1800
01:28:23,520 --> 01:28:26,520
I'm fucking true.

1801
01:28:26,520 --> 01:28:32,760
Alright next one is by Rabid Stote.

1802
01:28:32,760 --> 01:28:34,880
It's person puts.

1803
01:28:34,880 --> 01:28:39,440
I bought myself some shrimp at a seafood counter and that night made a nice teriyaki stir fry

1804
01:28:39,440 --> 01:28:41,440
with some veggies and rice.

1805
01:28:41,440 --> 01:28:45,000
Since I made a few servings but live alone I put the leftovers in the fridge for the

1806
01:28:45,000 --> 01:28:46,080
next day.

1807
01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:48,860
That night I felt a little stomach sick.

1808
01:28:48,860 --> 01:28:52,360
It was just a mild nauseous feeling no vomiting nor diarrhea.

1809
01:28:52,360 --> 01:28:55,200
So it was uncomfortable but not a huge deal.

1810
01:28:55,200 --> 01:28:59,160
Finally I wasn't sure if it was the shrimp dish I ate or something I ate earlier in the

1811
01:28:59,160 --> 01:29:05,640
day or just some stomach bug or just my digestive system being fussy as it is sometimes for

1812
01:29:05,640 --> 01:29:06,900
no good reason.

1813
01:29:06,900 --> 01:29:12,580
But the scientific method sword being the scientifically minded sword I decided it was

1814
01:29:12,580 --> 01:29:13,880
best to investigate.

1815
01:29:13,880 --> 01:29:18,680
I had posted on social media about the meal and feeling slightly sick and how I was going

1816
01:29:18,680 --> 01:29:22,520
to eat the leftovers and my friends told me that I was dumb and that I should just throw

1817
01:29:22,520 --> 01:29:24,240
them away just to be safe.

1818
01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:26,400
Well my stomach's never lived.

1819
01:29:26,400 --> 01:29:30,560
Obviously these were not scientifically minded friends.

1820
01:29:30,560 --> 01:29:35,200
Where would civilization be if no one had the curiosity to pursue scientific investigation?

1821
01:29:35,200 --> 01:29:37,920
By the way scientists do experiments on other things other people.

1822
01:29:37,920 --> 01:29:38,920
Not yourself.

1823
01:29:38,920 --> 01:29:39,920
Not on your yeah.

1824
01:29:39,920 --> 01:29:41,600
So yeah it was the shrimp dish.

1825
01:29:41,600 --> 01:29:46,160
I was the sickest I had been after eating those leftovers out of both ends with crippling

1826
01:29:46,160 --> 01:29:47,520
stomach cramps.

1827
01:29:47,520 --> 01:29:51,560
I was supposed to fly out to Key West for the weekend too and had to cancel.

1828
01:29:51,560 --> 01:29:52,560
Great choice.

1829
01:29:52,560 --> 01:29:57,480
I was out on one night's hotel cost for the cancellation but got the rest refunded.

1830
01:29:57,480 --> 01:29:59,840
The flight credit for the flight I had to cancel.

1831
01:29:59,840 --> 01:30:04,480
I spent the entire weekend miserable and only barely recovered from Monday work.

1832
01:30:04,480 --> 01:30:08,160
Now I did have one last serving of the shrimp in the fridge.

1833
01:30:08,160 --> 01:30:11,480
Less curious but sure this was the actual thing that got me sick.

1834
01:30:11,480 --> 01:30:12,480
Let's try it again.

1835
01:30:12,480 --> 01:30:16,640
A less curious person would assume if you got sick twice after eating the same dish

1836
01:30:16,640 --> 01:30:20,480
there was something wrong with the dish and that you should definitely not eat it.

1837
01:30:20,480 --> 01:30:23,840
I being a more curious person knew you couldn't rule out coli.

1838
01:30:23,840 --> 01:30:27,200
I see and the dumbest motherfuckin' ever lived.

1839
01:30:27,200 --> 01:30:33,120
With 100% certainty and to be better verified that the shrimp was the culprit I should try

1840
01:30:33,120 --> 01:30:34,120
it again.

1841
01:30:34,120 --> 01:30:35,440
Wow fucking genius.

1842
01:30:35,440 --> 01:30:40,760
However my less curious friends who heard of my plans insisted that I was an idiot and

1843
01:30:40,760 --> 01:30:45,200
that eating four day old shrimp that was most likely food poisoned me twice already was

1844
01:30:45,200 --> 01:30:46,360
beyond moronic.

1845
01:30:46,360 --> 01:30:48,760
I reluctantly caved and threw it away.

1846
01:30:48,760 --> 01:30:51,440
Plus setting scientific progress back years probably.

1847
01:30:51,440 --> 01:30:57,640
It goes into the trash and you can just hear it sizzling in there.

1848
01:30:57,640 --> 01:31:00,520
Next one is by closeted.

1849
01:31:00,520 --> 01:31:01,520
Closeted?

1850
01:31:01,520 --> 01:31:02,520
Closeted.

1851
01:31:02,520 --> 01:31:04,160
Well this person puts.

1852
01:31:04,160 --> 01:31:08,320
This is super embarrassing and I seriously hope none of you make the mistake I made last

1853
01:31:08,320 --> 01:31:09,320
night.

1854
01:31:09,320 --> 01:31:14,880
I've loved psychedelics for years.

1855
01:31:14,880 --> 01:31:18,760
I've had my ups and downs during experiences but I've always managed to keep my mental

1856
01:31:18,760 --> 01:31:23,440
state together enough to differentiate between real issues and perceived ones.

1857
01:31:23,440 --> 01:31:25,120
Last night I attended a show.

1858
01:31:25,120 --> 01:31:28,240
Nothing I'd planned in advance but a group I've always enjoyed.

1859
01:31:28,240 --> 01:31:33,960
Nonetheless I got some of them boomers off a friend last night.

1860
01:31:33,960 --> 01:31:35,760
I ate a slice.

1861
01:31:35,760 --> 01:31:36,760
Boomers?

1862
01:31:36,760 --> 01:31:38,720
Holy shit I heard of that boomers my guy.

1863
01:31:38,720 --> 01:31:39,720
I don't either.

1864
01:31:39,720 --> 01:31:41,200
I don't do drugs so I don't know.

1865
01:31:41,200 --> 01:31:42,200
Damn.

1866
01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:46,160
Off of a friend last night I ate a slice on the ride up there.

1867
01:31:46,160 --> 01:31:47,160
Ate a slice?

1868
01:31:47,160 --> 01:31:49,680
I thought it was a pill.

1869
01:31:49,680 --> 01:31:53,640
Within about half an hour I started having very strange physical symptoms.

1870
01:31:53,640 --> 01:31:57,080
Tingling extremities, chest pain, not your typical mushroom sensations.

1871
01:31:57,080 --> 01:31:59,200
Oh they're shroomy.

1872
01:31:59,200 --> 01:32:01,200
I sat myself down and tried to collect myself.

1873
01:32:01,200 --> 01:32:06,440
After all I'd taken these rooms, sorry these booms before.

1874
01:32:06,440 --> 01:32:09,480
I wonder if he's meaning shrooms.

1875
01:32:09,480 --> 01:32:10,480
I don't know.

1876
01:32:10,480 --> 01:32:11,480
That's like a slip.

1877
01:32:11,480 --> 01:32:13,760
It's auto correcting to booms.

1878
01:32:13,760 --> 01:32:15,360
I don't know.

1879
01:32:15,360 --> 01:32:18,160
I just assume it's a slang term for shrooming boomers.

1880
01:32:18,160 --> 01:32:19,160
Could be.

1881
01:32:19,160 --> 01:32:21,400
Yeah because he started with boomers didn't he?

1882
01:32:21,400 --> 01:32:22,400
Yeah.

1883
01:32:22,400 --> 01:32:25,000
Yeah so it's probably just one of their words for it.

1884
01:32:25,000 --> 01:32:27,000
I'm not a drug addict so I don't know.

1885
01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:30,720
I only indulge in the drug that is sex.

1886
01:32:30,720 --> 01:32:34,480
I think from Pandora.

1887
01:32:34,480 --> 01:32:35,480
Release the sins.

1888
01:32:35,480 --> 01:32:40,440
Thinking you're going to die on high dose psychedelics isn't a common thing but it isn't

1889
01:32:40,440 --> 01:32:42,560
all that uncommon either.

1890
01:32:42,560 --> 01:32:47,240
I just don't think, didn't think it would ever happen to me.

1891
01:32:47,240 --> 01:32:51,960
If I'm a dose that heavily usually texting is out of the question.

1892
01:32:51,960 --> 01:32:58,120
I have very little recollection of this occurring but I texted everyone.

1893
01:32:58,120 --> 01:33:02,360
Mother, sister, best friends, ex-best friends who I wanted to make up with that I was going

1894
01:33:02,360 --> 01:33:03,360
to die 100%.

1895
01:33:03,360 --> 01:33:05,560
Wow good job.

1896
01:33:05,560 --> 01:33:11,080
I texted ex-girlfriends who I never really think about anymore wonderfully abstract poetry

1897
01:33:11,080 --> 01:33:14,600
saying goodnight and goodbye essentially.

1898
01:33:14,600 --> 01:33:19,920
I'm not all sure why I had these symptoms that I had but apparently they didn't manifest

1899
01:33:19,920 --> 01:33:21,320
any further.

1900
01:33:21,320 --> 01:33:26,000
I didn't come back to myself enough to realize what I had done and took the car right back.

1901
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:30,580
Now self pity, an embarrassment beyond anything I know.

1902
01:33:30,580 --> 01:33:35,560
The only good thing I see coming from this actually ended up saying some things to people

1903
01:33:35,560 --> 01:33:39,880
that I only think I would have said had I honestly thought about it in my life and it's

1904
01:33:39,880 --> 01:33:40,880
to them.

1905
01:33:40,880 --> 01:33:43,960
Friends and I guess there's something that I had to say about that.

1906
01:33:43,960 --> 01:33:44,960
Hmm.

1907
01:33:44,960 --> 01:33:45,960
So.

1908
01:33:45,960 --> 01:33:47,720
It doesn't say like what they said back here.

1909
01:33:47,720 --> 01:33:49,520
No, no, no, no.

1910
01:33:49,520 --> 01:33:52,720
The worst is like no one responded at all.

1911
01:33:52,720 --> 01:33:55,400
Oh fuck.

1912
01:33:55,400 --> 01:33:58,160
I got no responses.

1913
01:33:58,160 --> 01:34:01,760
Next one is by Le Broffit.

1914
01:34:01,760 --> 01:34:02,760
Press the button.

1915
01:34:02,760 --> 01:34:06,880
I've been making and I've been moving and there's some random things in my car and I live in

1916
01:34:06,880 --> 01:34:08,080
Texas.

1917
01:34:08,080 --> 01:34:10,040
Most of the things in my car won't melt.

1918
01:34:10,040 --> 01:34:13,320
Clothes, bath mats, towels, etc.

1919
01:34:13,320 --> 01:34:17,040
But moving takes up a lot of space and there's small things that I missed.

1920
01:34:17,040 --> 01:34:21,400
I guess the toilet bowl cleaner, fresh under the sink wrapped in plastic, was left on the

1921
01:34:21,400 --> 01:34:26,280
passenger seat as I was intending to bring it in immediately.

1922
01:34:26,280 --> 01:34:30,120
You know those cleaners that hang on the side of the bowl with the metal hanger like aluminum?

1923
01:34:30,120 --> 01:34:35,920
Well, whenever I grabbed my bag from the passenger seat, I got caught on the hanger of the chemical

1924
01:34:35,920 --> 01:34:39,320
toilet seat cleaner wrapped in plastic at the bottom.

1925
01:34:39,320 --> 01:34:41,800
It was burning inside of my car all day.

1926
01:34:41,800 --> 01:34:44,840
Whenever I got to my car to drive home, my butt started burning.

1927
01:34:44,840 --> 01:34:50,160
I checked that it wasn't the seat belt and kept sitting on it and kept sitting in it

1928
01:34:50,160 --> 01:34:54,240
while my while I drenched through my pants and kept burning my butt.

1929
01:34:54,240 --> 01:34:57,360
I thought the seat was too hot and would cool down quickly.

1930
01:34:57,360 --> 01:35:01,600
Whenever I finally got up to check, the chemicals were splashed around the inside of the plastic

1931
01:35:01,600 --> 01:35:03,080
and had put a...

1932
01:35:03,080 --> 01:35:04,880
Let's see.

1933
01:35:04,880 --> 01:35:09,040
Whenever I finally got up to check, the chemicals were splashing around inside the plastic and

1934
01:35:09,040 --> 01:35:13,440
I had to put my shirt in my pants to hold off until I could drive to the quick trip

1935
01:35:13,440 --> 01:35:14,440
bathroom.

1936
01:35:14,440 --> 01:35:19,960
I still couldn't let my butt touch the seat even while the shirt blocking my butt.

1937
01:35:19,960 --> 01:35:25,840
Here I am washing the chemicals off my burning red behind.

1938
01:35:25,840 --> 01:35:26,840
He sat in chemicals?

1939
01:35:26,840 --> 01:35:28,320
I guess that's what he's saying.

1940
01:35:28,320 --> 01:35:31,400
Well, how would it end up from the passenger seat to the driver's side?

1941
01:35:31,400 --> 01:35:32,960
Don't know.

1942
01:35:32,960 --> 01:35:34,040
I don't understand.

1943
01:35:34,040 --> 01:35:41,720
I know I'm confused sometimes or I fuck up whenever I'm reading, but it's like, what?

1944
01:35:41,720 --> 01:35:42,720
Damn.

1945
01:35:42,720 --> 01:35:46,000
Then last one for today, push my limit.

1946
01:35:46,000 --> 01:35:48,080
Is the person that put this in here?

1947
01:35:48,080 --> 01:35:49,200
This person puts.

1948
01:35:49,200 --> 01:35:55,600
So technically last night, but still me and the missus decided to get down and do the

1949
01:35:55,600 --> 01:35:57,120
dirty.

1950
01:35:57,120 --> 01:35:58,120
Everything was going great.

1951
01:35:58,120 --> 01:36:02,920
New positions, newer sensations, taking our time with it all in a...

1952
01:36:02,920 --> 01:36:05,640
All in all fantastic.

1953
01:36:05,640 --> 01:36:13,000
Then as she so wants to do, she whispered, doggy, to my ear.

1954
01:36:13,000 --> 01:36:14,320
I love doggy position.

1955
01:36:14,320 --> 01:36:16,120
So did not hesitate in the slightest.

1956
01:36:16,120 --> 01:36:19,120
Let me roll the book back on.

1957
01:36:19,120 --> 01:36:20,120
Yeah.

1958
01:36:20,120 --> 01:36:24,040
Flipping her over and just rushing straight in.

1959
01:36:24,040 --> 01:36:26,960
Mistake number one was going too fast.

1960
01:36:26,960 --> 01:36:30,920
Mistake number two was not making sure I was going in correctly.

1961
01:36:30,920 --> 01:36:34,480
Number three, was not using enough lube.

1962
01:36:34,480 --> 01:36:36,880
I did hit the fucking wall.

1963
01:36:36,880 --> 01:36:43,280
As I went in, I felt a God awful snap and was immediately bent over, doubled in pain.

1964
01:36:43,280 --> 01:36:44,880
He broke his dick.

1965
01:36:44,880 --> 01:36:52,160
I pulled out and what I saw, I had snapped my philum and by snapped, I mean completely

1966
01:36:52,160 --> 01:36:53,160
snapped.

1967
01:36:53,160 --> 01:36:54,160
Jeez.

1968
01:36:54,160 --> 01:36:58,080
Not a tear or a cut, completely snapped in two.

1969
01:36:58,080 --> 01:36:59,480
Blood was going everywhere.

1970
01:36:59,480 --> 01:37:03,520
I immediately threw up and started crying.

1971
01:37:03,520 --> 01:37:06,160
The only fucking response to you.

1972
01:37:06,160 --> 01:37:09,560
I mean, that's the only reasonable response to that situation.

1973
01:37:09,560 --> 01:37:11,620
Started fucking crying.

1974
01:37:11,620 --> 01:37:14,440
So now I cannot masturbate or have sex for over a month.

1975
01:37:14,440 --> 01:37:16,040
God dang.

1976
01:37:16,040 --> 01:37:20,160
My wife is getting blue walls and blames me for going too fast, too furious.

1977
01:37:20,160 --> 01:37:22,960
Imagine that's a lot of blood up there.

1978
01:37:22,960 --> 01:37:23,960
Yeah.

1979
01:37:23,960 --> 01:37:25,960
Fucking shoots at you and fucking, oh man.

1980
01:37:25,960 --> 01:37:30,960
See how she's going to fucking lie down for a little bit.

1981
01:37:30,960 --> 01:37:31,960
Just not.

1982
01:37:31,960 --> 01:37:36,280
That was one guy that I was watching one of those, the ER sent me to the, or sex sent

1983
01:37:36,280 --> 01:37:37,280
me to the ER.

1984
01:37:37,280 --> 01:37:38,280
Yeah.

1985
01:37:38,280 --> 01:37:39,280
Yeah.

1986
01:37:39,280 --> 01:37:41,040
And this guy had just fucking just thrown him.

1987
01:37:41,040 --> 01:37:44,000
No, the woman, she had tossed him on the bed.

1988
01:37:44,000 --> 01:37:46,120
She had jumped on him, right?

1989
01:37:46,120 --> 01:37:52,640
And like, you know, like they, that's like a whole like, like feral fucking moment.

1990
01:37:52,640 --> 01:37:53,640
Right.

1991
01:37:53,640 --> 01:37:57,560
So she fucking lunges on him and I guess she lands right on his dick, his hard dick and

1992
01:37:57,560 --> 01:38:02,560
like she hits it in such a spot that when she fucking rolls over, the blood just shoots

1993
01:38:02,560 --> 01:38:03,560
out.

1994
01:38:03,560 --> 01:38:05,600
So did like a fucking fountain.

1995
01:38:05,600 --> 01:38:06,600
Oh.

1996
01:38:06,600 --> 01:38:11,120
Like a fucking Tarantino movie.

1997
01:38:11,120 --> 01:38:12,120
Oh God.

1998
01:38:12,120 --> 01:38:17,560
And he's just like, Oh, that would be terrible.

1999
01:38:17,560 --> 01:38:18,560
That would suck.

2000
01:38:18,560 --> 01:38:19,560
Yeah.

2001
01:38:19,560 --> 01:38:20,560
You guys gotta be careful.

2002
01:38:20,560 --> 01:38:21,560
Yeah.

2003
01:38:21,560 --> 01:38:24,560
Them girls, they'd be too rough sometimes.

2004
01:38:24,560 --> 01:38:26,360
A little bit too rough sometimes.

2005
01:38:26,360 --> 01:38:28,800
How can it only take so much?

2006
01:38:28,800 --> 01:38:29,800
It's not made of bone.

2007
01:38:29,800 --> 01:38:30,800
No.

2008
01:38:30,800 --> 01:38:33,360
At least then it would have some integrity.

2009
01:38:33,360 --> 01:38:34,360
It was made of fucking bone.

2010
01:38:34,360 --> 01:38:37,360
It should be like, it would be the same size all the time, wouldn't it?

2011
01:38:37,360 --> 01:38:41,480
They had to be fucking awkward to walk around with fucking hard ons all the time.

2012
01:38:41,480 --> 01:38:47,520
I guess like, like if you think about it, like, uh, uh, like, uh, the evolutionary, right?

2013
01:38:47,520 --> 01:38:50,680
Like if that was like, like if that was how it was, right?

2014
01:38:50,680 --> 01:38:52,120
It would just be a normal thing.

2015
01:38:52,120 --> 01:38:53,120
Yeah.

2016
01:38:53,120 --> 01:38:56,120
Like they'd always be hard and that was just be like how society would work and function.

2017
01:38:56,120 --> 01:38:57,120
Yeah.

2018
01:38:57,120 --> 01:38:58,120
Weird, huh?

2019
01:38:58,120 --> 01:39:04,920
Or if you're, uh, if you, uh, go by Robin Williams, it's the accordion style.

2020
01:39:04,920 --> 01:39:06,800
Yeah.

2021
01:39:06,800 --> 01:39:13,120
And he calls the other curtains.

2022
01:39:13,120 --> 01:39:16,240
That would be a whole change of our fucking society.

2023
01:39:16,240 --> 01:39:19,120
If the dicks were always hard, they were bone.

2024
01:39:19,120 --> 01:39:21,160
Like, come on now, get the beam up.

2025
01:39:21,160 --> 01:39:23,320
But if they were bone, it'd be a lot tougher too.

2026
01:39:23,320 --> 01:39:24,320
Yeah.

2027
01:39:24,320 --> 01:39:33,080
But at the same time, like if you broke one though, maybe they put some titanium on there

2028
01:39:33,080 --> 01:39:34,080
make it stronger.

2029
01:39:34,080 --> 01:39:38,880
How would that even fucking work a bone cock?

2030
01:39:38,880 --> 01:39:39,880
I don't know if it would.

2031
01:39:39,880 --> 01:39:40,880
That's what I'm saying.

2032
01:39:40,880 --> 01:39:42,840
Like, I don't think it, yeah.

2033
01:39:42,840 --> 01:39:43,840
Imagine that connected to your pelvis.

2034
01:39:43,840 --> 01:39:46,800
Like it had to be a muscle, but it's not a muscle either.

2035
01:39:46,800 --> 01:39:47,800
Is it?

2036
01:39:47,800 --> 01:39:48,800
Or is it just tissue?

2037
01:39:48,800 --> 01:39:49,800
Just tissue.

2038
01:39:49,800 --> 01:39:50,800
Damn.

2039
01:39:50,800 --> 01:39:51,800
I gotta read more.

2040
01:39:51,800 --> 01:39:53,800
I gotta read up more on biology.

2041
01:39:53,800 --> 01:39:57,400
I mean, you should know more about the human.

2042
01:39:57,400 --> 01:40:00,520
You should have been reading up more on biology after you learned about the new spots.

2043
01:40:00,520 --> 01:40:01,520
Oh yeah.

2044
01:40:01,520 --> 01:40:04,320
The A spot, the B spot, I was so fucking confused about.

2045
01:40:04,320 --> 01:40:05,320
Yeah, you're right.

2046
01:40:05,320 --> 01:40:09,360
I gotta keep studying.

2047
01:40:09,360 --> 01:40:10,360
Knowledge is power.

2048
01:40:10,360 --> 01:40:14,240
I want to be the most knowledge pervert on the planet.

2049
01:40:14,240 --> 01:40:15,920
All right.

2050
01:40:15,920 --> 01:40:17,920
Anything else to add before we head out today?

2051
01:40:17,920 --> 01:40:18,920
Just go easy, girls.

2052
01:40:18,920 --> 01:40:19,920
Please.

2053
01:40:19,920 --> 01:40:21,920
You don't want to see a fucking fountain of blood.

2054
01:40:21,920 --> 01:40:24,680
Imagine like it happened a certain way, right?

2055
01:40:24,680 --> 01:40:27,080
The blood just fucking hits her in the face.

2056
01:40:27,080 --> 01:40:28,680
Then they both be fucking traumatized.

2057
01:40:28,680 --> 01:40:31,680
It'd be like a fucking horror movie.

2058
01:40:31,680 --> 01:40:32,680
All right.

2059
01:40:32,680 --> 01:40:57,520
With that, we will see you guys on the next one.
