1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:29,280
And welcome to another live at King Kong in Kingman, Arizona.

2
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,800
We're here with our host Andy Rice.

3
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:34,800
Let's get fried!

4
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:41,960
Yes, with me today, as always is Austin drove three and a half hours to be here.

5
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:47,520
His mom made a bunch of adorable little handmade wheat related things that we can't sell to

6
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:48,520
these children.

7
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,480
Check me out on Rooster Teeth.

8
00:00:52,480 --> 00:00:54,120
With me as always is Mike.

9
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:58,000
He thinks that hat makes him look way younger than it does.

10
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,080
We try to kill him every episode.

11
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:01,520
We've given him poison.

12
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:02,640
We've shot him.

13
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:03,680
We've stabbed him.

14
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,000
He is invincible.

15
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,420
He's like the Terminator.

16
00:01:06,420 --> 00:01:07,760
He cannot die.

17
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:08,760
Larson.

18
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:09,760
Hey everybody.

19
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:16,560
And with me today is you guys in the audience, a bunch of kids wearing costumes.

20
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,120
Let's give it up for you.

21
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:21,120
Okay, wow.

22
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,920
So, welcome to Fried Rice Podcast everybody.

23
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:27,400
A lot of you look like you're still in middle school, high school.

24
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:28,400
Am I right?

25
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:29,400
High school.

26
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:30,400
I'm out of high school.

27
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:31,400
High school.

28
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:32,680
You're out of high school and you're 16?

29
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,920
That sounds like the start of a sad story.

30
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,280
Did your parents just abandon you somewhere?

31
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:46,960
Wait, you're in the foster care system and now you're on your own at 16 dressed like

32
00:01:46,960 --> 00:01:51,960
a ninja?

33
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:53,640
Are you dressed like a bum?

34
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,640
Is your character a bum?

35
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,600
You look like he's every hero more than a bum.

36
00:01:58,600 --> 00:01:59,600
Why are you so dirty?

37
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:00,600
Is that part of the cosplay?

38
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,600
That's because it's dirty out where I'm from.

39
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:06,640
She's a vigilante.

40
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,520
I didn't think we were going to start so dark.

41
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:15,080
I didn't think the first kid here was going to have a Batman backstory.

42
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,400
That's because you're a Peter Pan.

43
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:19,400
Oh, okay.

44
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:20,400
Wow.

45
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,720
That's a family friendly podcast.

46
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,760
We thought we had to be family friendly.

47
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:26,760
Yeah.

48
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:27,760
The first kid.

49
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:32,920
I didn't know the family wasn't going to be friendly.

50
00:02:32,920 --> 00:02:34,760
So today's going to be a little bit weird.

51
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:39,080
We're going to have some guests just popping in and out throughout this thing.

52
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:40,440
Let's just get the first one on right now.

53
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,200
It was the first guy that I met when we came up here.

54
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:43,200
Come on up, buddy.

55
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:44,200
Let's give a round of applause too.

56
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:45,200
What was your name again?

57
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:46,200
Chance.

58
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:47,200
Chance.

59
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:48,200
Spider-Man 29.

60
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:49,200
Yeah.

61
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:50,200
All right, Chance.

62
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:51,200
I bought a print from you earlier.

63
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:52,200
Let's show everybody.

64
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:53,200
This thing's awesome.

65
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:58,080
It's got all of my favorite Spider-Man, including anti-venom, which I just found out more about.

66
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,520
Apparently, Eddie Brock was anti-venom at some point.

67
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:01,520
I didn't know that.

68
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:02,520
He was.

69
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,520
He was in the game with 29 and 9.

70
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:06,520
Edge of Time.

71
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:07,520
Yeah.

72
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,560
That was the one that had Doc Ock and everything as well.

73
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:10,560
Yep.

74
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,840
But Edge of Time didn't have the open world web slinging, right?

75
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,440
It was level based and it was kind of crap and that's why nobody really liked it.

76
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,640
Well, Edge of Time is a mixed bag.

77
00:03:18,640 --> 00:03:22,160
It's got a really great story, but the gameplay just doesn't really reflect that.

78
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:27,360
Oh yeah, the same reason I'm going to watch all the cut scenes to Suicide Squad Kills

79
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,680
the Justice League and I'm never going to play it.

80
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:30,680
Yeah, exactly.

81
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,840
It's like one of those games that looks awesome.

82
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,160
It's going to have a dope story.

83
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:35,160
Can't wait.

84
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:36,160
But it turns out really horrible.

85
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:37,160
Yeah.

86
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:41,160
Just like the gameplay where most of the screen is just UI.

87
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:42,160
Yeah.

88
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,160
Let's say he's starting to get that Marvel and Disney treatment right now.

89
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,160
I'm pretty sure they did that with Gotham Knights too.

90
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:49,160
Yeah, Gotham Knights looks...

91
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:50,160
It was pretty bad too.

92
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:51,160
And Avengers.

93
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:52,840
We're making games live service.

94
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:57,160
We won story driven single player war co-op up to four friends.

95
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:58,160
Spider-Man 2.

96
00:03:58,160 --> 00:03:59,160
Yes, Spider-Man 2 is amazing.

97
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,920
He should make Insomniac make all the games.

98
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:09,000
This kid right here, despite his tragic backstory, he learned some street smarts and he learned

99
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,440
them good.

100
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,400
So Chance, what is your business called?

101
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:14,400
Mechs and Magic.

102
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:15,640
Mechs and Magic?

103
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:16,640
Yes.

104
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:20,160
So basically the reason why we called it that is because, well, for part, I'm more of the

105
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:21,160
robotic side.

106
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:22,400
I like drawing robots and stuff like that.

107
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,280
I'm a lot angular.

108
00:04:24,280 --> 00:04:29,960
And my wife, she does most of the softer stuff, like anime girls and stuff like that.

109
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:34,800
But we also do it because it kind of represents that we do a broad range of media and stuff

110
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:35,800
like that.

111
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,640
So not just anime, but also superheroes, games, stuff like that.

112
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,800
Yeah, I mean I like the Spider-Man one.

113
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:45,600
Yeah, and you were looking at Harley Quinn.

114
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,160
You had the keychains over there?

115
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:48,160
Yes.

116
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,160
I actually bought a keychain from him, the Soundwave one.

117
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:52,160
Soundwave Superior.

118
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:53,160
Oh, that's dope.

119
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:54,160
It's holographic too.

120
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:55,160
Yes, and it's actually really funny.

121
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:56,160
I love it.

122
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,160
What's your Instagram handle?

123
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:01,080
So it is Mechs and then N and then Magic.

124
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,680
And for the record, he's saying M-E-C-H-S.

125
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:05,680
Yes.

126
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:10,720
It took me a second to be like, are you allowed to call something Mechs and Magic?

127
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,600
M-E-X and Magic.

128
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,960
I was like, but no, yeah, Mechs and Magic.

129
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:16,960
Yes, got it.

130
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:17,960
Perfect.

131
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:18,960
And you have an Instagram, you said?

132
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:20,240
Yes, that is our Instagram.

133
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:26,840
We do also have an email and a website, although the website's being moved to a newer thing

134
00:05:26,840 --> 00:05:30,400
because we're also starting another business called the Nerd Vault where we're doing a

135
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,000
little bit more outside of just prints and stuff like that.

136
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:39,400
We're also selling stuff that we all enjoy, like comics and figures and stuff like that.

137
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,080
So we're kind of branching out on our business venture, but right now the focus is Mechs

138
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:44,080
and Magic.

139
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:45,080
Okay, perfect.

140
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,080
Love it.

141
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,240
Let's just get that out before...

142
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:54,040
Actually, our question for the panelists today is we're reviewing 2001 Planet of the Apes

143
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:55,040
by Tim Burton.

144
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:59,160
Well, we're going to be getting more into it later, but give us right now, we have a

145
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:00,160
rating system.

146
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:01,960
It is from B being our highest.

147
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,520
It goes to F being pretty bad.

148
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:05,520
Don't watch it.

149
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,720
But then W is a waste of time.

150
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,720
What would you put Planet of the Apes 2001 Tim Burton?

151
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:11,920
Is there anything in between?

152
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,680
Because I don't hate the movie, but it's really weird.

153
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,400
You can do pluses and minuses.

154
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,360
Okay, I'll give it an F plus.

155
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:20,360
Okay.

156
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:21,360
Wow.

157
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,080
First one out the gate is an F plus.

158
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:25,080
All right, everybody...

159
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:26,080
With Marky Mark.

160
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:27,080
Except Marky Mark.

161
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,080
Marky Mark's all right, you know, besides all this stuff.

162
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,280
And a monkey lady that looks kind of like Michael Jackson.

163
00:06:33,280 --> 00:06:35,280
No, she looks like Sandra Bullock.

164
00:06:35,280 --> 00:06:36,280
Okay, guys.

165
00:06:36,280 --> 00:06:37,280
That's mean.

166
00:06:37,280 --> 00:06:39,280
But now I didn't think about it.

167
00:06:39,280 --> 00:06:41,280
We're trying to get her on the show, Mike.

168
00:06:41,280 --> 00:06:43,800
That ape woman does look a lot like Sandra Bullock.

169
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:44,800
Yes, look.

170
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,480
All right, well, hey, thank you so much, Chance, for coming on.

171
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:49,760
We appreciate it.

172
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,280
And check him out at one more time, your Instagram.

173
00:06:52,280 --> 00:06:54,000
Mechs in Magic with an N in the middle.

174
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,000
That's again, M-E-C-H-S.

175
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,000
H, yes.

176
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,000
And Magic with an N. Perfect.

177
00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:59,000
Thanks so much.

178
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:00,000
We appreciate it.

179
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,000
Awesome.

180
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,000
Happy to be on.

181
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,000
Thank you.

182
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,000
Awesome.

183
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,000
Okay.

184
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,320
And so today we're going to be jumping straight into the movie.

185
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:13,000
How many of you children have seen 2001 Planet of the Apes?

186
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,560
Of course you have.

187
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:21,400
You probably watched it through a window standing in the snow outside one of those electronic

188
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:22,760
shops where all the TVs were.

189
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,160
You couldn't hear what was happening.

190
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,280
You just knew monkeys bad, humans good.

191
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:27,280
Okay.

192
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:28,280
I'm just kidding.

193
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:29,840
But you have a tragic backstory.

194
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:31,560
I'm worried about you.

195
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:32,560
Somebody adopt this kid.

196
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:33,560
Anyone here?

197
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:34,560
Adoption?

198
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:35,560
Ready?

199
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:36,560
I need to adopt him.

200
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:37,560
He bought it for 20 bucks.

201
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:38,560
He bought what for 20 bucks?

202
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:39,560
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

203
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:40,560
Wrong broadcast.

204
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:46,600
We can wait on Planet of the Apes.

205
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,680
We just witness human trafficking.

206
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:54,680
Blink three times in a row if you're in trouble.

207
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,520
Well, that's disheartening.

208
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:01,160
I'm starting to think these kids are darker than us.

209
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:02,160
Yeah.

210
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:08,280
I think that poor girl is being human trafficked by a boy who is outside the system, but also

211
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:09,440
they were the only ones talking.

212
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,720
So thank God, am I right?

213
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:16,280
So we're going to jump straight into Planet of the Apes, but with us to talk about Planet

214
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:20,520
of the Apes is our good friend, the leader of Mojave Comedy.

215
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,880
He is as bald as he is round.

216
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:31,960
He is as Hawaiian-shirted as he is, loving to talk about micro-nesia, micro-asia.

217
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:32,960
What's it called?

218
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:33,960
Micro-nesia.

219
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,680
The good old days, as he calls it.

220
00:08:37,680 --> 00:08:41,640
Today he has his bastard child from Texas.

221
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,280
His daughter he rarely addresses.

222
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:46,280
Anthony Mitchell!

223
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:47,280
Come on up here.

224
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:54,280
Sorry, I only know about you from Legend.

225
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:55,280
Legend.

226
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,280
How far are we in?

227
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,280
Eight minutes and all my cupcakes are gone.

228
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,280
A bunch of cupcakes like that.

229
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:04,280
We'll stick around.

230
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:05,280
Not a single one with a cup.

231
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:06,280
She thanked me.

232
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:07,280
She gave me a thank you.

233
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:11,080
Oh awesome, the two most evil-looking people here stuck around.

234
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:12,760
Oh, and the quietest.

235
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:13,760
But you seemed respectful.

236
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:14,760
Thank you, I appreciate it.

237
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:19,320
And we'll have you on just one second.

238
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:20,320
So Anthony, welcome.

239
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:21,320
How are you?

240
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:22,320
Thank you Andy, appreciate it.

241
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:23,320
Did you like your intro?

242
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:24,320
Yeah, it was what I expected.

243
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:25,320
Okay.

244
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:32,560
We're going to talk about Planet of the Apes in just a second, but we're going to have

245
00:09:32,560 --> 00:09:33,560
on a special guest.

246
00:09:33,560 --> 00:09:36,560
Can I get actually, crap, do we have one more chair?

247
00:09:36,560 --> 00:09:37,560
One more chair for Ruben?

248
00:09:37,560 --> 00:09:38,560
Can we just get one more?

249
00:09:38,560 --> 00:09:41,560
I'm in the middle, or I would get it.

250
00:09:41,560 --> 00:09:49,520
Because Anthony is going to be more of a semi-permanent fixture for this.

251
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:50,520
He's more of a semi-guest.

252
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:51,520
Awesome.

253
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:56,560
We are going to have on, and this is to me personally, one of the most exciting guests

254
00:09:56,560 --> 00:09:58,120
to have on Fried Rice Podcast.

255
00:09:58,120 --> 00:09:59,820
I'm not even kidding.

256
00:09:59,820 --> 00:10:01,360
His name is Ruben, what's your last name?

257
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:02,360
Nahara.

258
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:03,360
One more time.

259
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:04,360
Nahara.

260
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:05,360
N-A-J-E-R-A.

261
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:06,360
Nahara?

262
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:07,360
Nahara.

263
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:08,360
Yes.

264
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:09,360
Okay.

265
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:14,560
This is an actual, I'm not even kidding you, an actual Archie Comics writer.

266
00:10:14,560 --> 00:10:15,560
His comic is out front.

267
00:10:15,560 --> 00:10:16,560
I'm going to buy, dude, come on.

268
00:10:16,560 --> 00:10:17,560
This guy works for Archie Comics.

269
00:10:17,560 --> 00:10:18,560
We're talking Archie.

270
00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:25,520
We're talking about the things that I, those little double digests that you see at the

271
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,200
supermarket you don't know I'm talking about, those little Betty and Veronica adventures,

272
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,560
maybe Jughead gets his own Archie, right?

273
00:10:31,560 --> 00:10:32,920
Like Archie Sonic?

274
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:33,920
Archie.

275
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:34,920
Wait, Archie and Sonic?

276
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:35,920
Archie Sonic and Comics?

277
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:37,800
Is there, is Archie Sonic crossover?

278
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:38,800
They did actually.

279
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:44,280
My intro, one of my big intros to comics was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles back then.

280
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,440
Archie used to publish them.

281
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:51,500
And the person who did the covers for those books, his name was Dave Garcia, and that

282
00:10:51,500 --> 00:10:56,640
is the only creator from my hometown in Pura Valley, El Centro in that area, who actually

283
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:57,640
got a job in comics.

284
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:02,760
So that was kind of cool to then later on be writing for Archie, you know?

285
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:03,760
Yeah.

286
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:09,720
And then two guys coming from your small town become Archie comic creators.

287
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,320
He's artist side, you're writer side?

288
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:12,320
Yes.

289
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:13,320
Okay.

290
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:14,320
That's amazing.

291
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:15,320
Yeah, it's pretty random.

292
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,520
Now, can you give the audience, because I'm sure as much as I love Archie, it does drop

293
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,200
off I think after kind of kids grow up a little bit.

294
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:27,200
Like you have to be kind of a diehard Archie guy to still be following Archie.

295
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:31,700
But give us a taste of what, first off the issue that you wrote is about, but then also

296
00:11:31,700 --> 00:11:36,680
just in general what Archie's been getting up to because it has been some crazy stuff

297
00:11:36,680 --> 00:11:37,680
lately.

298
00:11:37,680 --> 00:11:38,680
Yeah.

299
00:11:38,680 --> 00:11:40,320
So there's kind of like a darker side to Archie.

300
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:41,960
They kind of got me on the lighter side.

301
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:46,720
So I ran like the fun stuff, like the superhero Archie stuff.

302
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,600
You know, like right now I think like there's like a hot rod issue where like racing is

303
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:50,720
going to come out.

304
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,040
So I'm on that side of Archie.

305
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:58,360
But then there's like the horror side of Archie, which is like Sabrina and like Vampironic

306
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,920
and like all these other, yeah, there's like a whole thing.

307
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:02,400
Like Jughead's a werewolf for now.

308
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:03,400
Exactly, yeah.

309
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:04,880
So there's two sides to the Archie stuff.

310
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:09,080
So they got me like on the happier lighter side of it, which is fun.

311
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:10,440
Which is the Archie that I grew up with.

312
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:11,440
Yeah, it's pretty much close to that.

313
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:16,920
I mean I even remember my parents buying me those big trade paperbacks that collected

314
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,440
all the 50s and 60s and 70s and 80s Archies.

315
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:26,280
And like you just seeing it grow up, but seeing like it's like a Simpsons almost where it's

316
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:34,160
like the technology ages, but they still are up to the same lighthearted shenanigans.

317
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:35,520
No one gets hurt.

318
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,760
No one is trying to hurt like anybody.

319
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:38,760
Right?

320
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:39,760
Yeah.

321
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:40,760
And it's, I love it.

322
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:42,760
And lighthearted Archie, to be honest, is my favorite Archie.

323
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:44,680
That's the way it started.

324
00:12:44,680 --> 00:12:48,280
Is it the same superhero Archie that is from the past?

325
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,080
Like the same team?

326
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:54,240
It's pure heart is the Archie as Superman, right?

327
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:59,360
The story that I wrote in the best Archie comic ever that we have outside at my booth,

328
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:03,840
that is basically Betty and Veronica as super agents, super spies.

329
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,920
And so usually like they conflict and battle with each other a lot, you know what I mean?

330
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,440
Fighting for Archie or whoever it may be.

331
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:10,600
In my story, they work together.

332
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,440
If they don't work together, they can't succeed.

333
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:13,440
I love when they work together.

334
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,360
Does Cheryl make an appearance as an alternate spy?

335
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,960
I didn't get to write Cheryl in.

336
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:23,240
I worked with Betty, Veronica, and then I snuck Archie in a little bit.

337
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,280
And then the editor was like, you know what, I like that.

338
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:26,280
You can use them more.

339
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,040
So then I got to use Archie in the whole story.

340
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:29,040
Oh, that's dope.

341
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,320
And then I got to create a villain in that book.

342
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:32,960
We call Big Carp.

343
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:37,240
And he's kind of like, if you know, Kingpin from Spider-Man, it's like Kingpin, but in

344
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:41,120
like a different version, but it's like a Archie Kingpin.

345
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:42,960
So he's not running a less evil.

346
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,080
He's not running a drug scene.

347
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:49,920
He's probably running like a illegal chocolate fountain shop business where it's like, it's

348
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,480
like you go in and you're sitting in your chocolate soda, it's a little bit more expensive

349
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:54,480
than it should be.

350
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,960
All the toppings are mine.

351
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,000
He charges extra for toppings.

352
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:00,000
Yeah.

353
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:05,360
In the story, the funny pun is like my story in that it's called operatives and it takes

354
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:06,360
place in an opera.

355
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:07,360
Oh, I like that.

356
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:08,360
But they're super agent spies.

357
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:09,360
So there's that whole thing.

358
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:10,480
I love puns.

359
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:15,160
I based my entire podcast around the word, my last name being Rice.

360
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,480
So I'm a big pun fan.

361
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:18,480
Awesome.

362
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,960
Do you have an Instagram?

363
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:22,400
Give us your shout out, your info.

364
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:23,400
Yeah.

365
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:31,080
It's just my name, Ruben Nahara, R-U-B-E-N-N-A-J-E-R-A on all social platforms, RubenNahara.com.

366
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,240
And yeah, aside from the Archie book, I just launched my own original IP.

367
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:35,860
It's called Cala Guerra.

368
00:14:35,860 --> 00:14:39,600
And that's going to come out, that's going to debut actually at the San Diego Comic Con.

369
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,680
It'll be in stores worldwide in July.

370
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:45,200
And it's my first original IP because although I get hired to write comics for different

371
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,160
companies, this one's my story.

372
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,320
So that will come, whatever.

373
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:56,160
That one is the cover art is by Tehany Far, who recently did a cover for James Tynion,

374
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,080
who does like something is killing the children.

375
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,800
He does, what's the other big one he does?

376
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:01,800
Batman.

377
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:02,800
He was on Batman.

378
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:07,120
She did the covers for him on stuff on a book called World Tree for Image.

379
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:12,360
She's my cover artist on Cala Guerra and my interior artist, they call him El Cartoon.

380
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:13,560
And he's from Tijuana.

381
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:14,560
So my whole team.

382
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:18,200
You know El Cartoon's been drawing some good comics.

383
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:19,200
Yeah, he's good.

384
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:20,200
That's exciting.

385
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:21,600
He did the interiors on that book.

386
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:27,160
That comes out in July at basically every comic book store in the world that can carry

387
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:30,380
comic books can have the book in the store because it's carried through Diamond comic

388
00:15:30,380 --> 00:15:33,080
distributors, which distributes to everybody.

389
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,080
Awesome.

390
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:35,400
Hey, well thank you so much for coming on.

391
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,520
It's a dream to meet someone that worked on Archie.

392
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:38,520
This is like very, very cool.

393
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,520
And in order to be here, and I love Kingman, this is my first time in Kingman actually,

394
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:42,520
and I've had fun.

395
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:43,520
Oh, awesome.

396
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:47,480
And I know that all of us are going to get some barbecue at that pizza barbecue joint

397
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:48,480
after.

398
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:49,480
Nice.

399
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:50,480
So maybe meet us over there.

400
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:54,240
But I'm going to buy a couple issues of your stuff on the way out.

401
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:55,240
Let's give up Ruben.

402
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:56,240
An actual Archie creator.

403
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:57,240
Thank you so much.

404
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:58,240
Thank you for having me here.

405
00:15:58,240 --> 00:15:59,240
Thank you very much.

406
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:00,240
Oh yeah, sorry.

407
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:01,240
By the way, we're doing this.

408
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:02,240
Ruben, real quick.

409
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:08,240
Planet of the Apes 2001.

410
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:12,680
Our rating system is B being the highest, W being the lowest.

411
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,320
And there's a gap from F to W. The new movie that's coming out?

412
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:17,320
No, 2001.

413
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:18,320
Marky Mark.

414
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:19,320
The last one with costumes.

415
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:20,320
Oh, shoot.

416
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:25,320
I'm trying to think if I've seen that one.

417
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:26,800
Tim Burton?

418
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:27,800
Marky Wahlberg?

419
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:28,800
Yes, okay, I did see that one.

420
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:29,800
Yeah, you did.

421
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:30,800
You don't have to watch it again.

422
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:31,800
Yeah, you do have, but they blocked it out.

423
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:32,800
Yeah, you should try and block it out, yes.

424
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,200
Okay, so what do I get aside on it?

425
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,200
It's B through F or W if it's a waste of time.

426
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,200
Oh, it's definitely not a waste of time.

427
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:41,200
I agree.

428
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,200
I collect actual props, movie props.

429
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,200
So I like the visual aspect of that.

430
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:48,200
And that was live, yeah.

431
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,200
Yeah, I actually have real ninja drill props.

432
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:55,200
I got Kevin Eastman's, from the first movie, the Leonardo.

433
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:56,200
I have the real Leonardo.

434
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:57,200
Oh, cool.

435
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:58,200
The full outfit?

436
00:16:58,200 --> 00:16:59,200
The full outfit, yeah.

437
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:00,200
Like a life size?

438
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:01,200
Yeah.

439
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:02,200
Holy cow.

440
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:06,200
How often do you put it on, put some vanilla ice on, and then just...

441
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,200
Yeah, right now it's in a crate.

442
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:14,200
Because I have the, we're going to be trying to move pretty soon.

443
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:15,200
Sure.

444
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:16,200
But it's pretty awesome.

445
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:17,200
Yeah.

446
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:22,200
Yeah, but B through F or W for that one.

447
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,200
You can use pluses and minuses too, yeah, if you're on the fence.

448
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,200
B through F, let's see.

449
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,200
I'll give it like a C.

450
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:30,200
A C, perfect.

451
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:31,200
I'll give it a C.

452
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:32,200
That's good.

453
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:33,200
Yeah.

454
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:34,200
Perfect, awesome.

455
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:35,200
Thanks so much.

456
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:36,200
Appreciate it.

457
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:37,200
Thanks so much.

458
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:41,200
All right, we're going to go in order, so we're going to, then you guys.

459
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,200
Okay, Alan, you want to come on up?

460
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:45,200
Sure.

461
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,200
Everybody, let's give it up to Alan, what's your last name again?

462
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:48,200
Long.

463
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,200
Long, and he's the creator of The Little Elephant.

464
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:52,200
Who Couldn't Sit Still.

465
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:53,200
Oh, Who Couldn't Sit Still.

466
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,200
But I thought it was Ellie the Elephant.

467
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:56,200
Yeah, so I have a second book.

468
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:57,200
Oh.

469
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:58,200
It's the newer one.

470
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,200
It's called Ellie the Elephant Goes to School.

471
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:01,200
Let's get into it, yeah.

472
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,200
So this is another original author.

473
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:08,200
He created the Ellie the Elephant series, the Elephant, the Little Elephant series it

474
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:09,200
looks like, right?

475
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:10,200
Yeah.

476
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:11,200
And these are adorable little kids books.

477
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:15,200
Like, show, keep, I mean, you get the whole time, you got to keep flipping through this

478
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,200
thing, you got to show everybody here.

479
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:20,200
So tell us, tell us, tell us first off, how did you get started with this?

480
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,200
What was the inspiration behind it?

481
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:23,200
How long have you been doing it?

482
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,200
Okay, so I am right now a second grade teacher.

483
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,200
Used to be a third grade teacher.

484
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:33,200
Last year I had a student in my class who had ADHD, and I've realized a lot of kids

485
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:38,200
don't understand others with ADHD and understand how they learn or how they struggle.

486
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:43,200
I've also realized a lot of adults don't understand it either, because it's so much easier for

487
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:48,200
a teacher to yell at a kid and punish a kid than actually work with them and understand

488
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:49,200
them.

489
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,200
And that's what I wanted to do and what I wanted to change.

490
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:55,200
So I created these books really to kind of open up the eyes of other kids of what their

491
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:59,200
friends are maybe struggling with in the classroom.

492
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:00,200
Yeah.

493
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:01,200
So.

494
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:02,200
I bet it could work in other, I bet I could use it to deal with these kids.

495
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:03,200
Yeah.

496
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:08,200
I could read a little bit of Ellie the Elephant to deal with these monsters over here.

497
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:12,200
I don't think it's ADHD, I think it's just dementia and homelessness.

498
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,200
I don't know what the homeless one today.

499
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,200
Well, okay, I mean the beard.

500
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:20,200
But I'm just kidding.

501
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,200
But okay, that's a, I mean I love the backstory of that.

502
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,200
And then, and her name was Ellie the girl?

503
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:25,200
No.

504
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,200
Oh, but you named the elephant Ellie.

505
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,200
Well yeah, because Ellie the Elephant, that just sounds great, right?

506
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,200
That's just, it works.

507
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:33,200
Yeah.

508
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,200
And so it's Ellie the Elephant goes to school.

509
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:36,200
Yes.

510
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,200
And that's her with ADHD going to school?

511
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:43,200
Yeah, and you kind of see like the angry teacher and her like crawling on the floor, rolling

512
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,200
around the classroom, and the teacher getting upset.

513
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:51,200
And then you see a coach come in, a behavior coach come in and work with her and teach

514
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:52,200
her techniques.

515
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:58,200
And through the story of the book, you're kind of seeing the techniques going through.

516
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:03,200
So then kids who are reading it will also learn some new techniques that may help them

517
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:04,200
in the classroom or at home.

518
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:05,200
And you teach where?

519
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:06,200
Here?

520
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:07,200
In Kingman?

521
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:11,200
I teach for Kingman Unified School District, but I actually work in Dolan Springs at Mel

522
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:12,200
Tipton Elementary.

523
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:13,200
Wow.

524
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:14,200
Hey, very cool.

525
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:15,200
Very cool.

526
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:16,200
What is your Instagram?

527
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,200
How do people find these books online?

528
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:19,200
So I have a website.

529
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:20,200
It's alanlong.square.site.

530
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:27,200
I also have a TikTok, alanlong28, that people can follow and see.

531
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,200
I'm working on a third book right now.

532
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:33,200
So in the second book, Ellie meets a friend who has autism.

533
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:38,200
So then my third book is going to be about that friend who has autism and how she struggles

534
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,200
and how she can work through autism.

535
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:41,200
Yeah.

536
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:46,200
Yeah, I mean, that kind of matches this like dementia, homelessness, and I kind of have

537
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:47,200
a little bit of autism.

538
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:48,200
So you got to book one time.

539
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:49,200
So that's what it gets me to work for.

540
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:55,200
You're sort of just writing the Fried Rice podcast as a children's book.

541
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,200
I'd like to be a...

542
00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:58,200
I'll be the model for the elephant.

543
00:20:58,200 --> 00:20:59,200
I'm obviously a bear.

544
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:04,200
If you were going to throw it in, I would be Bear in the Big Blue House meets Ted Cruz.

545
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:08,200
Yeah, once I said it, you all see it now, don't you?

546
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:09,200
The Ted Cruz.

547
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:10,200
I'll say that.

548
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:11,200
Yeah.

549
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:12,200
Okay, so wonderful.

550
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:17,200
And we're obviously talking about 2001 Planet of the Apes today.

551
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:18,200
Tim Burton, right?

552
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:19,200
Have you seen it?

553
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:22,200
So I was probably five when that came out.

554
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:26,200
So probably the best age, honestly, to watch Planet of the Apes.

555
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:32,200
It would terrify you, but at the same time mystify you, and the costumes are amazing.

556
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,200
Just ballpark.

557
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,200
You hear Tim Burton, you hear Planet of the Apes remake.

558
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:38,200
What do you feel?

559
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,200
I'm going to go with a B.

560
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:41,200
Oh, yes.

561
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:42,200
Yes?

562
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:43,200
Yeah.

563
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:48,200
Out of nowhere, Alan Warrant with a B. One of the higher scores today, I'm sure, for

564
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:49,200
2001 Planet of the Apes.

565
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:50,200
I'm sure it's good.

566
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:51,200
Yeah, I'm sure it is.

567
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:52,200
Your parents loved it.

568
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:55,200
Your parents loved it, yes.

569
00:21:55,200 --> 00:22:02,200
Maybe after watching it, you can do Ellie the Elephant Goes and Sees, a terrible remake,

570
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:03,200
the book.

571
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:04,200
I can't wait.

572
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:05,200
Go watch a Bad Bar remake.

573
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:06,200
Which one?

574
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:07,200
Bad Bar.

575
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:08,200
Bad Bar remake.

576
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:12,200
But yeah, I love your book series.

577
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:13,200
It's great.

578
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:14,200
Thank you.

579
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,200
If you're out there, if you're a parent, if you have kids, especially if they have ADHD,

580
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:23,520
even if you have a kid who doesn't, this would be a great way for them to learn how to interact

581
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,440
with students and friends who might.

582
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:30,200
We might have these kind of neuro, is it neurotypical or non?

583
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:31,200
Neurodivergent.

584
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,200
Neurodivergent, thank you so much.

585
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:35,200
Neurodivergent kind of disorder.

586
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:36,200
Disorder.

587
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:37,200
Yeah, disorder.

588
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,200
I don't even like using the word disorder.

589
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:40,560
Let's get those to all the teachers.

590
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,200
I think ADHD people are some of the smartest humans I've ever met in my life.

591
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:45,200
Usually.

592
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:46,360
There's so much going on in their head.

593
00:22:46,360 --> 00:22:52,040
It's hard to keep them focused, but I don't think, yeah, it's kind of an unchained sort

594
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,720
of brilliance, that beautiful mind kind of thing.

595
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:59,360
I'm not sure if you guys have seen the new Matilda movie on Netflix, the musical?

596
00:22:59,360 --> 00:23:00,360
Yes, exactly.

597
00:23:00,360 --> 00:23:03,880
Have you seen the new Matilda movie on Netflix, the musical?

598
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:09,120
No, but I've seen that one dance number cut to Slipknot and other death metal where they're

599
00:23:09,120 --> 00:23:13,480
just coming down the hallway.

600
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:14,480
That's dope.

601
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,600
But I haven't seen the actual Matilda.

602
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:23,000
When I do school visits and author visits at schools, I use music video as a kind of

603
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:28,600
to give kids a little example of what goes on in an ADHD kid's head and quiet is the

604
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:29,600
name of the song.

605
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:30,800
You look up that music video.

606
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:31,800
From Matilda?

607
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:32,800
Yeah.

608
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:33,800
Quiet from Matilda.

609
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:38,640
Yeah, you can actually see all this stuff going on in her head and that just reminds

610
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:39,640
me of an ADHD kid.

611
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:40,640
But not coming out.

612
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:41,640
Perfect.

613
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,640
And then you have an awesome video called Quiet.

614
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:45,640
Did you ever say that?

615
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:46,640
Bjork.

616
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:47,640
Oh, actually, you have Bjork.

617
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:48,640
Quiet.

618
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,160
Anything Bjork does is an visual masterpiece.

619
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,280
Unless she's punching a camera person in the face.

620
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,000
But anyway, thank you so much, Alan, for coming on.

621
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:57,000
We really appreciate it.

622
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,000
I'll meet up with you afterwards.

623
00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:59,000
Thanks for coming on.

624
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:04,680
All right, we're going to have our next guest on.

625
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:05,680
These dudes are dope.

626
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:06,680
They were on last time.

627
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:12,160
They gave me a Beskar brick, they're our 3D printing friends.

628
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:20,840
My favorite piece that I have in my apartment right now is the little 3D baby group that

629
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,320
I got from them last time that they custom built for me.

630
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:24,400
I absolutely love it.

631
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:29,880
Their table is decked out today.

632
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,760
Their table is decked out.

633
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:32,760
Is that your guy?

634
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:33,760
Yeah.

635
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,720
Oh, you should have told me.

636
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:40,800
He's got the Imperial Star Destroyer.

637
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,000
I want to say 1-1000th scale.

638
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:44,000
I know that that's...

639
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:45,000
1-16th hundred.

640
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,000
What is it?

641
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:47,000
1-16th hundred.

642
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:48,000
Honestly?

643
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:49,000
Yes.

644
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:50,000
It's three foot.

645
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:57,480
Wait, if you put 1-16th hundred of those together, you have an actual Imperial 10-6.

646
00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:59,200
Oh, crap.

647
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,160
All right.

648
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:02,160
Very cool.

649
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:03,720
Let's give us your names again.

650
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:04,720
I'm so sorry.

651
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:05,720
I'm Josh.

652
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:07,280
Daniel and Josh, what's the name of your business?

653
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:08,680
Dark Ion Printing.

654
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:10,000
Dark Ion Printing.

655
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,000
Yes.

656
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,040
We had you guys on last time.

657
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:15,280
What are you guys working on?

658
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:17,680
You guys have a whole bigger operation.

659
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:21,960
You guys are pumping out way more stuff.

660
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:27,320
Last year, we had maybe three or four printers running.

661
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:33,000
We were focused mostly on comic book characters and some anime stuff.

662
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:41,280
We've since doubled our production capabilities and we're moving into more video game characters

663
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:48,160
and motion picture stuff, like for instance Star Wars.

664
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,320
It's actually been a really good year for us.

665
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,840
Heck yeah, dude.

666
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:54,960
I asked you this last time.

667
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,840
I think we asked what your most intricate piece that you guys were working on was.

668
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,840
Oh, that got rescheduled this time around.

669
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:05,000
Okay, so I'm sure it's something different this time.

670
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:06,400
It's actually out on the table.

671
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:13,080
Our biggest piece now to date and in mass detail is actually the Imperial Starkestory.

672
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:14,080
It's beautiful.

673
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:20,440
Yeah, that model includes over 800 pieces for just that three foot model.

674
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,880
How long would it take to paint that?

675
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,800
Painting actually is fairly simple once it's assembled.

676
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:27,800
Once it's assembled.

677
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:34,440
I know, the actual printing time and assembly time with all of the custom modifications

678
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:39,000
we had to do to get it all actually assembled was about three months.

679
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:47,640
The painting, most of it is just kind of an off-white color when it's finally painted.

680
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:53,120
With minor airbrushing and stuff, maybe 20 hours worth of painting.

681
00:26:53,120 --> 00:26:54,120
Worth it?

682
00:26:54,120 --> 00:26:55,120
Oh yeah.

683
00:26:55,120 --> 00:26:59,040
Were you guys going to put that on display or are you selling it?

684
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:00,040
Everything's for sale.

685
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,760
I mean, if someone came up with the right number, we'd probably sell it.

686
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:04,760
Don't look at me.

687
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:05,760
I don't got the right number.

688
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:06,760
The price is right.

689
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,760
Right, if the price was right.

690
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,360
And he's like $5 and some Domino's candy.

691
00:27:11,360 --> 00:27:21,560
We are thinking about upscaling and attempting the Death Star 2.

692
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:25,040
The open, the mid-construction Death Star 2.

693
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:28,480
But fully operational.

694
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:34,240
As far as scale, we're looking at like two and a half to three feet for that as well.

695
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:38,840
So I don't know what the time scale is going to be on that one.

696
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,680
That one might end up being the six month to a year project.

697
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:42,680
Worth it.

698
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:43,680
Right?

699
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,680
Yeah, that would be nice.

700
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,200
Hang in from the next Comic Con.

701
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:49,920
Right, just hang in from the ceiling.

702
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:51,200
I look forward to it.

703
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:54,840
We're running a little short on time so I've got to kind of wrap this up.

704
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:56,240

Start, our scale starts with B to F.

714
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:15,400

Sorry, go ahead.

For me personally.

722
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:23,400
Sandra Bullock.

723
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:28,400
I'd say C minus.

724
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,400
C minus?

725
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,240
I'd go about that.

726
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:35,240
It's worth a watch.

727
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,640
It's worth a watch but they've done better.

728
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:39,640
Awesome.

729
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,640
Hey, let's give it up for Darkion Printing.

730
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:47,640
Thank you so much for coming.

731
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,640
Thanks guys, we appreciate it.

732
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:53,640
What's your name?

733
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:54,640
Naturally.

734
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:55,640
That's a card.

735
00:28:55,640 --> 00:29:00,640
I was walking through and I saw the bottles and it just caught my eye.

736
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,640
So I was like, all right, this guy automatically gets it.

737
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:04,640
BottleMagic.com.

738
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:05,640
What's BottleMagic.com?

739
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,640
BottleMagic.com is basically this.

740
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:09,640
Oh, what?

741
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:10,640
Yeah, check that out.

742
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:11,640
That is a deck of cards.

743
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:17,040
That is a brand new deck of cards still sealed with the cellophane wrapping on that I put

744
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,920
into the bottle through the one inch neck.

745
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:27,360
I am one of only 24 people in the world that know how to do this art form.

746
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:28,360
It seems impossible.

747
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,040
Everybody wants to ask how.

748
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:31,520
Everyone does ask.

749
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:36,520
That art form was actually started by a gentleman by the name of Harry Eng.

750
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:42,440
Harry Eng used to put all kinds of things into bottles and he died when he was 60 years

751
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:47,640
old and I am a former professional magician of 30 years.

752
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:53,080
What happened was that when he passed away they wrote an article about him in a magic

753
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,200
magazine and I read it.

754
00:29:55,200 --> 00:30:00,280
Not only was this interesting but the way this guy thought was just incredible.

755
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:05,680
I just thought this is the most amazing person I've never met, never even knew even existed.

756
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:10,800
But after I read the article I said I've got to learn how to do this art form.

757
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:16,280
The problem is this is back in 1996 at the beginning of the internet and there were only

758
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:21,320
12 people in the entire world that even knew how to do some of that stuff.

759
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:25,280
And Harry took all of his secrets with him to the grave.

760
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:31,600
So me, I spent three and a half years trying to figure out how to do that.

761
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:36,560
And I broke hundreds of bottles and ruined hundreds upon hundreds of decks of cards until

762
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:38,640
I finally figured it out.

763
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:42,560
And now I've been doing this for over 20 years and now I'm considered one of the top three

764
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:44,440
in the world for doing this.

765
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,040
I mean I figured it out.

766
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:47,040
I know how to do it.

767
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:48,040
You do?

768
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:49,040
Yeah.

769
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:50,040
Okay.

770
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,880
You get a deck of playing cards, you chop it up into about 10,000 pieces.

771
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:56,440
You take little tweezers and then you rebuild it with glue.

772
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:57,440
That would be nice to see.

773
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,880
The only problem is if you look on the side there you'll actually there's a window there

774
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:05,520
that shows you all the cards are in there in perfect order.

775
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:11,120
In fact a funny story is I actually had a gentleman, this is the easiest bottle I do.

776
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:16,600
I do things where I've taken apple cider gallon jugs and I put pairs of Converse gin shoes

777
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:17,920
inside.

778
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:23,580
I have one that I got challenged on from a guy out of New York who sent me a picture

779
00:31:23,580 --> 00:31:24,760
and said can you do this?

780
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:25,960
And I said I don't know.

781
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:30,080
I spent nine months and I figured it out.

782
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:35,760
But I ended up taking a Behringer wine bottle, emptying out the wine, put the cork back in.

783
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:42,080
But now inside of the bottle is the cork screw being twisted up into the cork.

784
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:43,880
Oh that's crazy.

785
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:46,680
All of those type of bottles are all on my website.

786
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:48,200
I got you figured out though.

787
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:49,200
Thanksgiving, Turducken's.

788
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:57,320
So this is, I've been doing these for about 20 years.

789
00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:02,560
The newest art form that I just started three years ago is this.

790
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:07,160
And this is where you take decks of cards, in this case theory 11.

791
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,160
I wish we were a visual podcast.

792
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:11,160
We sort of are.

793
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:15,200
And I turn them into 3D, turn it over.

794
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:16,200
Turn it around.

795
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,360
That's what I do.

796
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:28,280
I cut 52 cards individually with just a, that's pretty cool.

797
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:34,760
That's 52 cards and what I do is I take an exacto knife and I will literally sit there

798
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:39,320
and cut 52 cards individually, stack them on top of each other.

799
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,400
They get more and more detailed as you go along.

800
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,760
And then once they're all done, they look like that.

801
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:46,760
That's really cool.

802
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:51,320
The interesting thing is that there are some other people that do this kind of work but

803
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:57,800
the only difference is that I do is that if you were to take a look here, I am the only

804
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:02,040
one that after they're cut, they're still sealed with the cellophane wrapping on.

805
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:07,240
And I am the only one that does that.

806
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,020
So these are the two new things.

807
00:33:09,020 --> 00:33:15,200
And what happened was that this is my first Comic Con with these bottles and I actually

808
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:20,560
had a gentleman who sent me one of these in a Spider-Man deck and he asked me to cut it

809
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:21,560
for him.

810
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:25,760
He found my website, cut it for him, sent it back to him and said, how do you like it?

811
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:29,280
And he's like, this is the greatest thing I've ever seen.

812
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:33,520
I'm putting it into my room with all my other Spider-Man collectibles.

813
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:38,880
So he wanted that in there and he says, I'm big into Comic Con.

814
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:43,880
I would suggest that you take this stuff and build up your collection.

815
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:48,520
So now I have about 13 different pop culture decks.

816
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:55,520
James Bond, Avengers, Stranger Things, Star Wars, Dark Knight, Spider-Man, Black Panther,

817
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:56,520
all of those.

818
00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,240
Very good place to bring them to.

819
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:03,800
So I brought them here and I thought, I'll try and see if this is a new audience of what

820
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:05,980
people like it or not.

821
00:34:05,980 --> 00:34:12,040
So I showed the work and they liked it so I brought it here and then I also sent my

822
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:19,120
artwork to the Fan Fusion in Phoenix and to the Comic Con in Tucson.

823
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,480
And I just heard back from both of them and they both said, you're definitely going to

824
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:23,480
come here.

825
00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:24,480
And so I got accepted.

826
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:30,080
So I went from never even going to a Comic Con to now going to three this year.

827
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:31,980
Give us a shout out for your business.

828
00:34:31,980 --> 00:34:38,040
My business is called Bottle Magic and the website is called Bottlemagic.com.

829
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:39,040
Perfect.

830
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,880
And people can, they can buy these things from you online.

831
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,640
They can custom, it sounds like they can commission you to do custom ones.

832
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:49,080
Oh yeah, I've had lots of people commission me to put certain things in the bottle.

833
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:50,080
There are certain limitations.

834
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:51,080
Sure.

835
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:56,680
But it sounds like you're willing to put years of your actual life into going how to overcome

836
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:57,680
those limitations.

837
00:34:57,680 --> 00:34:58,680
It's one of those things.

838
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,680
I'm almost, I want to challenge you on something.

839
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:02,680
That's impressive, isn't it?

840
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:03,680
That's impressive.

841
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:07,480
And then just for the people listening at home, which is everybody, again, I mean this

842
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:13,000
is, it's hard to explain how cool it is visually, but that is a, it's a pack of cards, a double

843
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:19,040
oh seven really cool, like nice looking gold packet cards still in the wrapper inside of

844
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:20,040
like a Snapple bottle.

845
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:21,040
It kind of looks like, like the size.

846
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:22,040
It's a barbecue sauce.

847
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:23,040
Oh, barbecue sauce.

848
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:26,000
See, there are actually four rules to this art form because the first thing that everyone

849
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:27,680
says is, oh, well you cut the bottle.

850
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:32,240
Well, if I cut the bottle, first of all, you would see the line where it is because of

851
00:35:32,240 --> 00:35:35,720
glass when it's cut always has a frosted line.

852
00:35:35,720 --> 00:35:36,720
Okay.

853
00:35:36,720 --> 00:35:38,800
So first, that's the first thing.

854
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:44,040
Secondly is that if you cut it, anyone can do that, you know, but there are actually

855
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:45,520
certain rules as art form.

856
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:50,560
The number one rule is that every bottle has to be a bottle that you can buy at your grocery

857
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:51,560
store.

858
00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:52,560
Okay.

859
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:58,360
Number two is that the bottle cannot be heated, cooled, cut or manipulated in any way, shape

860
00:35:58,360 --> 00:35:59,360
or form.

861
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:00,360
Okay.

862
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:04,160
The third rule is that every item that goes into the bottle has to go in through the neck

863
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:05,400
of the bottle.

864
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:10,720
And here's the kicker, the fourth rule is that every single item once inside has to

865
00:36:10,720 --> 00:36:12,720
be perfectly usable.

866
00:36:12,720 --> 00:36:16,960
In other words, if you were to break that bottle, you could undo the cellophane, take

867
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:22,120
the sticker off, pull the cards out and every single card would be in there in perfect mint

868
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:26,800
condition including the jokers and advertising cards and you can play cards for as long as

869
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:27,800
you want it.

870
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:28,800
That's amazing.

871
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:29,800
So, yeah, very cool.

872
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:33,880
Before you leave, we're going to get your opinion on Planet of the Apes 2001 Tim Burton.

873
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,520
B through F or W?

874
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:36,520
I've seen it once.

875
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:37,520
Okay.

876
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:38,520
And I give it a D.

877
00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:39,520
Is it as deep?

878
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:40,520
Hey, thanks so much for coming on.

879
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:41,520
We really appreciate it.

880
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:42,520
Everybody, let's give it up for Bottle Magic.

881
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:43,520
That was very cool.

882
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:44,520
I'm going to check out your booth.

883
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:51,520
I want to go look at all the rest of the stuff after this.

884
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:54,720
We have a lot of stuff in common.

885
00:36:54,720 --> 00:36:57,160
We got Big Mike certified himself.

886
00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:04,080
We have the guy that put on this entire event coming in at the last minute.

887
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:05,080
Let's give it up for Big Mike certified.

888
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:06,080
We wouldn't be here today without him.

889
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:07,080
Let's give it up.

890
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:08,080
What's up, family?

891
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:09,080
How you guys doing?

892
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:10,080
Good.

893
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:11,080
Hey, thanks for coming on our podcast this time.

894
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:12,080
I'm digging the guns you got hanging around your neck.

895
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:13,080
Oh, yeah.

896
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:14,080
Our emotional support nuns.

897
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:15,080
They come in little baggies and everything.

898
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:16,080
That is hilarious.

899
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:17,080
Awesome.

900
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:32,640
Austin's mom made them and we haven't sold any yet, but they're adorable.

901
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,640
I'll take a gram.

902
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:36,640
Perfect.

903
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:43,360
We're almost out of time here.

904
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,720
I guess we didn't really have much time to... Give us some shout outs.

905
00:37:46,720 --> 00:37:48,040
We got all the time we want, to be honest.

906
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,080
I was going to say, it's Big Mike here right now.

907
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:55,440
What we have is we've got so many kids here ready for the cosplay contest that this venue

908
00:37:55,440 --> 00:38:00,040
is just not big enough to where they're congregating in the bathrooms and they're filling up every

909
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:01,440
nook and cranny.

910
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:05,560
I've moved the manga drawing that was going to be here out to the main stage so that when

911
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,000
we're done, they're going to basically use this as cosplay prep.

912
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:09,000
Got it.

913
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:10,000
We can maybe give you a few more minutes.

914
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:11,000
We're good.

915
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:12,000
Okay.

916
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:13,000
Well, then awesome.

917
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:14,000
They don't even know that we're doing that.

918
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:15,000
We're just going to start announcing it in a few minutes.

919
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:16,000
We're good to go.

920
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:17,000
We're good to go.

921
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:18,000
Okay.

922
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:19,000
Perfect.

923
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:20,000
Well, awesome.

924
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:21,000
My IP is exposed.

925
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:22,000
What does that mean?

926
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:23,000
Don't worry about it.

927
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:24,000
All right.

928
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:25,000
Not right now.

929
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:26,000
Okay.

930
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:27,000
Not right now.

931
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:28,000
Okay.

932
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,680
This is the second King Kong.

933
00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:32,200
First one was in November 2023.

934
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:33,200
September.

935
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:34,200
Oh, September.

936
00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:37,440
Now we're March 2024.

937
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,760
Both of these have been freaking awesome.

938
00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:44,880
I had so much fun at the last one and this one seems like even better.

939
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:46,100
It seems like the...

940
00:38:46,100 --> 00:38:47,100
I think we're learning.

941
00:38:47,100 --> 00:38:52,160
I think we're learning because last time what tweaks that we needed for security, for trash,

942
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:55,440
for all the basic stuff that me being a big...

943
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:56,440
I'm just lost over.

944
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:58,480
I'm like, make sure we got storm troopers.

945
00:38:58,480 --> 00:38:59,480
Make sure you got it.

946
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:00,480
You know what I mean?

947
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:01,480
We need comic books.

948
00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:02,480
It's a comic con.

949
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:03,480
Where's the comic book?

950
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:04,480
That stuff.

951
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:10,880
Yeah, so the other little thingies that we needed to have in place, we've been able to

952
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:11,880
upgrade this time.

953
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:16,160
I feel like moving forward we've run into a couple of things even from this con.

954
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,000
As we go this thing is just going to evolve.

955
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:23,560
We're talking about closing streets next time and spilling food trucks out the front, putting

956
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,040
more vendors with tents out back.

957
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:31,160
Because MCC is next to us, they've got a really cool building that almost can be like an auxiliary

958
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:33,440
second building that we can use.

959
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:34,440
That'd be cool.

960
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,440
Because we're just going to need it.

961
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:37,440
Yeah.

962
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:38,440
Dude, that's...

963
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:39,440
We're growing fast.

964
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:42,560
I mean, it's great having a comic con nearby.

965
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:43,560
It's awesome.

966
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,920
There's nothing else like this in the area.

967
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:50,400
Where am I going to be able to go and buy prints of comic book stuff?

968
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:54,840
Walmart sells, I think, packs of random comics maybe.

969
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:55,840
I think they sort of have...

970
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:57,880
You could buy a pack for 10 bucks.

971
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:01,800
You can get three or four comics of just varying degrees of whatever.

972
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:04,360
Here you can get some cool ones.

973
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:05,360
Right.

974
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:10,240
I have my toy shop that's in town, I have the only toy shop in town.

975
00:40:10,240 --> 00:40:12,840
Oh, give a shout out.

976
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:14,880
It's Big Mike's Toy Reunion.

977
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:19,080
It's over next to the movie theater on Stockton Hill Road, 4055 Stockton Hill Road.

978
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,320
It's right in front of Brendan Theaters.

979
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:26,360
It's a total vintage store, retro store, but we do have boxes of comics.

980
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:29,880
We do got pretty much anything of your geeky fandom that you would want and probably stuff

981
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:31,800
you didn't even know that you were running.

982
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:32,800
Beers are like, wait a minute.

983
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:34,440
I had that when I was a kid.

984
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,760
So I literally put on the front window, I had that.

985
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:40,400
We hear it so often that when people come in.

986
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:42,800
Then we also buy toys from people locally.

987
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:45,640
Then we're always shipping them out.

988
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,520
So like toyreunion.com, people can window shop.

989
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,160
Or if they're not here, they can just shop shop.

990
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:52,160
Toyreunion.com.

991
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:53,160
Toyreunion.com.

992
00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:55,680
Yeah, it's just...

993
00:40:55,680 --> 00:41:00,320
I know that this community is smaller, I guess, compared to a lot of places.

994
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:04,520
So many kids were coming in the shop saying that this is amazing, that this little shop

995
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,200
existed, that they didn't have anything like this around them.

996
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:09,040
Video games and all.

997
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:10,040
All the retro consoles.

998
00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:11,040
You know what I mean?

999
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:14,720
So as they're getting into these things or people are getting back into these things,

1000
00:41:14,720 --> 00:41:20,160
the fact that they can't get their hands on it other than going to eBay or whatever, maybe

1001
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,720
looking out at a swap meet once in a while.

1002
00:41:22,720 --> 00:41:27,960
But to have something like that, there was all this energy behind it.

1003
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:31,840
And I know at one point, I was just mad, I wanted to go to Comic-Con, but I was so busy

1004
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:35,040
I couldn't leave to go to Vegas or go to Phoenix or whatever.

1005
00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:38,280
I was like, well, why don't we just do one ourselves?

1006
00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:39,760
And literally, I threw a...

1007
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:44,040
Me and my kids celebrate May the 4th, like it's Christmas.

1008
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:48,800
Because for 10 years now, we basically get together no matter where we're at, what we're

1009
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:49,800
doing.

1010
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,100
And we create all these weird Star Wars dishes and stuff.

1011
00:41:52,100 --> 00:41:53,360
And I literally like this thing.

1012
00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:59,560
So last year, we threw a party at the shop and we invited people and we catered in all

1013
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:03,880
kind of crazy, everything we could get at Galaxy's Edge, basically Disneyland.

1014
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,680
We catered in and made ourselves.

1015
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:10,160
And after that night, there was just so much kind of energy.

1016
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:12,680
I woke up the next day and go, I'm just doing it.

1017
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:16,760
Came down, rented the space and then just put out a message on Facebook.

1018
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:18,480
Hey, anybody vendor, any artists?

1019
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:20,440
I'll give you your spot for free.

1020
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:23,640
I just want you to come and show your art and show your love.

1021
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:26,960
And it's been blowing up ever since.

1022
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:28,240
You know what I mean?

1023
00:42:28,240 --> 00:42:32,440
And now, again, I've got a list of vendors who want to be here, but I'm just like, I

1024
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:33,440
have no space.

1025
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:34,920
So that's why we're going to have to expand.

1026
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:35,920
Yeah.

1027
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:36,920
Do you know when the next one's going to be?

1028
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:37,920
It's going to be...

1029
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:41,140
So strategically, I've planned these because of the size of the community and the kids

1030
00:42:41,140 --> 00:42:46,520
who want to be here, big kids too, is spring break, fall break.

1031
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:48,200
The middle of spring break, middle of fall break.

1032
00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:52,680
So basically it's going to be mid-March all the time and probably end of September all

1033
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:55,840
the time, just to kind of do that.

1034
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:56,840
I like that.

1035
00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,720
I like the consistency of it because then people know to look forward to it.

1036
00:42:59,720 --> 00:43:00,720
They plan for it.

1037
00:43:00,720 --> 00:43:03,480
It's like, at least I know September is coming up.

1038
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:05,480
It's going to be the winter break one.

1039
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:06,480
Exactly.

1040
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:07,480
Yeah.

1041
00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:08,480
I like that a lot.

1042
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:11,400
And that consistency is why I feel like they just need.

1043
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:16,000
Again, and I've had so many kids since we've done them twice that have come up and like

1044
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:19,600
I never thought I was going to get to go to a Comic Con because it's not like this is

1045
00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:26,440
a very affluent, wealthy area, I guess, trying to put it in a cute way.

1046
00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:32,280
And the fact is there's not a lot of extra money to go drop 500 to go to Vegas, a thousand,

1047
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:33,840
thousands to go to San Diego.

1048
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:34,840
Oh yeah.

1049
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:35,840
You know what I mean?

1050
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:39,520
I've thought about that the other day and I thought San Diego Comic Con, yes, that's

1051
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:41,600
where all the big announcements are made.

1052
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:45,300
That's where you got the boots, but at the same time you're going to wait literally most

1053
00:43:45,300 --> 00:43:46,920
of your time there in lines.

1054
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:47,920
It's a two.

1055
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:51,280
You want to get into Hall H, you're spending a thousand bucks just standing in line all

1056
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:52,280
day.

1057
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:53,280
Exactly.

1058
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:54,960
But you come here to Kingman Comic Con.

1059
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:55,960
Sorry.

1060
00:43:55,960 --> 00:44:02,720
You come here to Kingman Comic Con and not only can you visit each and every single booth,

1061
00:44:02,720 --> 00:44:03,720
but you can do it.

1062
00:44:03,720 --> 00:44:06,320
You can get to know each and every vendor.

1063
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:09,440
And the vendors here are happy to talk with us.

1064
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:11,800
They're happy to share their love of what's going on.

1065
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:15,560
We've had now every time we come here, we get vendors to come up here and each one of

1066
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:16,560
us passionately do.

1067
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:19,080
We got to meet a real life Archie creator today.

1068
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:20,080
NAR.

1069
00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:21,080
NAR.

1070
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:22,920
NAR used to skate with Tony Hawk.

1071
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:23,920
What?

1072
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:24,920
We didn't even get into that.

1073
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:25,920
With the Ruben guy?

1074
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:26,920
Yes.

1075
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:27,920
No way.

1076
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,960
Ruben Najero skated with Tony Hawk at the beginning of his pro career.

1077
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,080
He then went on to skate with other brands.

1078
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:34,480
He's had his own shoe line.

1079
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:38,880
He's had a super huge successful power bar, like energy bar.

1080
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:43,120
Blake Griffin was one side of the power bars of the book and he was the skater side of

1081
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:45,000
the power bar and they both kind of like competed.

1082
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:46,800
So millions of these power bars.

1083
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:50,640
He then went on to become a stuntman in Hollywood and has been a stuntman in Hollywood for a

1084
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:51,840
long period of time.

1085
00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:56,080
And then he's now Archie is like a piece of what he does.

1086
00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:58,080
He's worked on Spider-Man.

1087
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,840
He's worked on a bunch of other comics as well.

1088
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:01,840
That uh.

1089
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:02,840
What the hell man?

1090
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:07,960
I had this guy on here and all we talked about was Archie?

1091
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:09,800
Him and his girlfriend even got a kids book that they wrote.

1092
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:10,800
She illustrated.

1093
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:11,800
He wrote it.

1094
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:12,800
And uh yeah.

1095
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:15,080
So there's that dude's multifaceted as can be.

1096
00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:16,560
Multifaceted as hell yeah.

1097
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:17,560
Amazing.

1098
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:19,800
And to get him here is wild.

1099
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:21,520
And for him to have all that skill set.

1100
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:23,000
I literally went through his whole table.

1101
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:24,000
I bought like all the books.

1102
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:25,520
I said can you sign them all for me?

1103
00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:27,000
So I literally have like all the books.

1104
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:28,000
Yeah I'm definitely.

1105
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:32,280
As a matter of fact, if you're out there, Ruben Najero, nicknames are NAR.

1106
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:36,320
Find an issue of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles number 100.

1107
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:39,120
You'll see that the turtles are all doing big.

1108
00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:41,760
In the background on the bottom right corner, there's uh.

1109
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,740
You'll see uh Mondo Gecko skating.

1110
00:45:44,740 --> 00:45:47,360
Next to Mondo Gecko skating is NAR.

1111
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:50,160
He's on the cover of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles number 100.

1112
00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:51,160
What?

1113
00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:53,160
A little character of him on the corner.

1114
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:54,720
He was being very shy.

1115
00:45:54,720 --> 00:45:55,720
Yo.

1116
00:45:55,720 --> 00:45:57,520
Not to mention he has his own podcast.

1117
00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:03,520
And he recently interviewed the Honky Tonk Man from WWF Days back in the day.

1118
00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:04,520
He's interviewed quite a few.

1119
00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:07,320
It's one of those moments where it's like I feel bad.

1120
00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:11,200
I feel like I should have had him on the whole time.

1121
00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:12,680
I just talked to him.

1122
00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:13,680
This amazing.

1123
00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:15,560
Well hey, but now we can.

1124
00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:17,520
We've had a real life celebrity on here.

1125
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:18,520
I guess.

1126
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:19,520
Archie right?

1127
00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:20,520
Wink wink.

1128
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:21,520
You're really.

1129
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:23,160
If you guys are Archie fans, great.

1130
00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:25,360
We had on the guy that's worked on Spider-Man.

1131
00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:27,120
He's skating with Tony Hawk.

1132
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:28,600
He's a stunt man.

1133
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:29,600
Holy crap.

1134
00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:32,320
And he's like Archie's all I need to know.

1135
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:34,160
And then in September you had Sloppy Robbie.

1136
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:36,840
Sloppy Robbie from Sloppy's World.

1137
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:38,320
Was it Sloppy's World?

1138
00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:40,120
Sloppy's World on Netflix.

1139
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:41,560
So he was here last time.

1140
00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:43,440
We unfortunately didn't get him on the show.

1141
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:44,480
He was in the room.

1142
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:46,600
But we had too many guests rolling through.

1143
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:47,760
So it just didn't work out.

1144
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:53,880
Yeah, he just celebrated his tenure, his location, a generation cooldown in Tucson.

1145
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:54,880
So he just had his tenure.

1146
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:56,400
And he went full McDonald's.

1147
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:58,600
Like he went merch and everything on what he did.

1148
00:46:58,600 --> 00:46:59,600
He created a whole big thing.

1149
00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:01,520
I don't know where he's at in the world right now.

1150
00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:03,920
But that was the last thing he did in late January.

1151
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:07,000
And I didn't bug him this time because I know he was so busy.

1152
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,200
But I'm going to see if we can get him in next time.

1153
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:10,200
I dig the dude.

1154
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:11,200
He's fun.

1155
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:12,200
We're kindred spirits.

1156
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:13,200
We've got similar shops.

1157
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:15,600
He's got more vintage-y clothes and stuff like that.

1158
00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:17,760
He hung out with us a little bit before the pod.

1159
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:19,920
Yeah, he's a cool guy.

1160
00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,760
He's done some cool stuff.

1161
00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:29,600
So since we have a few more minutes, we were going to talk about Tim Burton's Planet of

1162
00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:33,280
the Apes 2001 a little bit and give a kind of like a mini review.

1163
00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:35,000
How much do you remember that movie?

1164
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:36,000
Enough?

1165
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:37,560
I've got my score.

1166
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:40,040
Okay, he's got his score at least.

1167
00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:41,040
I've got my grade.

1168
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:42,040
Okay, give us your grade at least.

1169
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:43,040
Are you ready?

1170
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:46,040
It's B through F and the W being a waste of time.

1171
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,720
So I'm going to say F for forgettable.

1172
00:47:48,720 --> 00:47:50,880
Oh wow, straight up F.

1173
00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:56,860
Yeah, because I grew up on the 70s versions.

1174
00:47:56,860 --> 00:48:00,360
And while it is a little corny, quirky, whatever, I still dug it.

1175
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:06,240
I feel like what they've done with the new stuff, at least I'm getting heart.

1176
00:48:06,240 --> 00:48:10,560
Like I feel like that was just like a, I don't know, a jump shot.

1177
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:12,920
Just like this factory produced.

1178
00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:13,920
Really?

1179
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:14,920
You got that vibe?

1180
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:15,920
I just felt like it.

1181
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:16,920
Again, forgettable.

1182
00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:17,920
Yeah.

1183
00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:18,920
You know what?

1184
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:19,920
I thought that maybe it was.

1185
00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:23,680
I have one of the Gorillaz busts in my shop.

1186
00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:25,320
I've had it since we opened the door.

1187
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:29,120
I don't think a human being other than me has touched that thing.

1188
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:31,160
It started like a $50 value.

1189
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:35,240
I'm probably willing to give it to the first person that comes in door and touches it.

1190
00:48:35,240 --> 00:48:39,200
That's how Andy dates.

1191
00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:42,640
So I don't know.

1192
00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:44,560
Again, it just, yeah, forgettable.

1193
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:45,560
Ah man.

1194
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:50,720
Paul Giamatti has never been hotter than that movie.

1195
00:48:50,720 --> 00:48:53,040
Paul Giamatti has never been hotter than that movie.

1196
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:55,120
It's one of his better roles.

1197
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:56,120
Oh, he hates.

1198
00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:58,880
Come on, he was in private parts.

1199
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:01,480
I'm going to say this.

1200
00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:04,400
I made some notes for Planet of the Apes.

1201
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:05,400
We don't know a lot of times.

1202
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:08,200
So let's just hit the highlights here.

1203
00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:11,960
I will say this takes place five years from now.

1204
00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:17,640
So 2029 is when we're fully blown in space.

1205
00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:24,080
We are sending chimps and monkeys out on routine just space missions.

1206
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:28,500
And then another thing I'd like to point out is right in the beginning, Mark Wahlberg,

1207
00:49:28,500 --> 00:49:32,320
when he's leaving and he steals the pod, he takes a space helmet, just kind of does one

1208
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:34,800
of those and starts flying off.

1209
00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:36,800
Doesn't attach it to anything.

1210
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:41,480
It's about as useful as this helmet Austin has on his head.

1211
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:46,520
And then when he crashes and he's underwater, you would think, oh, this is going to help

1212
00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:47,520
him.

1213
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:48,520
But it's just encumbered him.

1214
00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:52,880
He has to take off this helmet, which served no purpose whatsoever, and throw it away.

1215
00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:54,960
I did not like that.

1216
00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:58,880
When I saw that Warriors of Virtue was on Tubi, and that's all I thought about for a

1217
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:00,680
few minutes, because remember that one?

1218
00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:01,680
No.

1219
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:02,680
Warriors of Virtue.

1220
00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:06,560
Give me just anybody who knows what Warriors of Virtue is.

1221
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:07,560
Anybody in the audience.

1222
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:08,560
I believe that was Keith.

1223
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:09,560
Yes.

1224
00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:10,560
Wasn't it that weird kangaroo?

1225
00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:11,560
Yes, it was, my man.

1226
00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:12,560
What's your name?

1227
00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:13,560
Keith.

1228
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:14,560
Keith, you're my favorite.

1229
00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:15,560
Do we have a prize?

1230
00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:16,560
Do we have any prizes?

1231
00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:17,560
You can give them that.

1232
00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:18,560
No, I can't.

1233
00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:19,560
Wow.

1234
00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:20,560
This is mine.

1235
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:21,560
Why was that?

1236
00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:22,560
No, that was a gift.

1237
00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:27,000
You know what?

1238
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:28,000
No prizes, my guy.

1239
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:29,000
Sorry.

1240
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:30,000
But yes, it is a-

1241
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:34,000
Wait, I have a picture of Sandra Bullock as a champ.

1242
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:35,000
Okay.

1243
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:38,000
There you go.

1244
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:41,840
Helen Bone Carter looked exactly like Sandra Bullock.

1245
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:44,280
It's a little sticky, but it's awesome.

1246
00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:47,120
Okay, this is family friendly.

1247
00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:48,120
There's children present.

1248
00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:51,360
Dude, he eats jam all the time.

1249
00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:58,720
Anyway, Warriors of Virtue is, they had Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and those movies were

1250
00:50:58,720 --> 00:51:05,240
successful so they thought, why not that, but Kangaroo Warriors?

1251
00:51:05,240 --> 00:51:11,760
It's four mystical kangaroo warrior ninjas in full outfits like they had in Ninja Turtles

1252
00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:15,800
and it is a bad movie, but I loved it.

1253
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:19,600
We're going to watch it at some point.

1254
00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:24,280
We usually vote for movies and it's democratic, but I'm going to force at some point Warriors

1255
00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:25,920
of Virtue onto this podcast.

1256
00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:28,080
I just want you to know that.

1257
00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:31,400
Anyway, I put the costumes are amazing in this movie.

1258
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:33,900
I don't know, I mean everyone craps on them.

1259
00:51:33,900 --> 00:51:36,400
I think they're so good.

1260
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:37,400
Here's what you crapped on.

1261
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:38,920
It's not the costume.

1262
00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:42,520
It's the fact that there's an ape in a costume that's pretty good right there and then there's

1263
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:44,520
a perfect CGI behind it.

1264
00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:46,200
Wait, did they use-

1265
00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:47,200
Yes, there's mixed CGI.

1266
00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:49,200
Were they using CGI in this?

1267
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:56,280
When they stormed that camp and that one gorilla yelled, you could tell CGI mouth on a practical

1268
00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:57,280
effect.

1269
00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:59,240
Yeah, and when there's groups, there's CGI.

1270
00:51:59,240 --> 00:52:00,480
They did Fade really good.

1271
00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:01,760
Fade was really convincing.

1272
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:07,640
Dude, General Fade, Tim Roth is terrifying in this movie.

1273
00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:13,440
He is, I mean I would not, of all, almost of all characters in movie history, he'd be

1274
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:15,800
the one I'd be most uncomfortable with in a room.

1275
00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:19,480
I feel like I could talk to Darth Vader unless he's got a reason to be mad at me.

1276
00:52:19,480 --> 00:52:20,800
There's no reason, we'd be able to talk.

1277
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:22,800
I'd be like, what's up, dog?

1278
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:23,800
Let's talk.

1279
00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:24,800
I like the dark side.

1280
00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:25,800
You like the dark side.

1281
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:26,800
We're good.

1282
00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:30,040
He killed his two best men with Beyblades.

1283
00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:34,600
They're like, we found this crashed ship and he pulls out Beyblades and just kills him.

1284
00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:36,240
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.

1285
00:52:36,240 --> 00:52:37,240
General Roth is terrifying.

1286
00:52:37,240 --> 00:52:38,240
He's terrifying.

1287
00:52:38,240 --> 00:52:42,200
Oh look, we got a Planet of the Apes fan right there.

1288
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:45,400
You a big Planet of the Apes guy?

1289
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:48,280
I should use Donkey Kong.

1290
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:49,280
Are you Donkey Kong?

1291
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:50,280
Okay, well.

1292
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:51,280
Feels enough.

1293
00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:53,120
Oh yeah, Warriors of Virtue.

1294
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:56,520
Pass around your phone, let everyone see what the...

1295
00:52:56,520 --> 00:52:58,280
Pass around your phone.

1296
00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:06,200
No, no, I just, I put that, I like how all the apes, regardless of their type, I guess,

1297
00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:10,000
because you have like the big ones, you have like the General Roth kind.

1298
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:11,000
You have the champs and the...

1299
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:13,000
The General Wraith, what's his name?

1300
00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:14,000
Fade.

1301
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:16,440
I said Roth because of Tim Roth.

1302
00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:19,840
Oh, you're saying Wraith.

1303
00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:25,320
No, but all of the monkeys, all the apes, regardless of what type they are, doesn't

1304
00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:26,320
matter your...

1305
00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:28,520
No, that's not true.

1306
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:29,520
Your station.

1307
00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:32,440
No, the guerrillas are all soldiers.

1308
00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:37,200
Oh, this guy's on a mission.

1309
00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:39,640
You didn't tell us you were Secret Service, bro.

1310
00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:42,000
Andy, you know how sad it is?

1311
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:43,120
I own the DVD.

1312
00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:46,080
They have behind the scenes features on the DVD.

1313
00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:49,640
They talked about how the cast segregated at lunchtimes into their...

1314
00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:54,160
Wait, but I also heard the same thing about the...

1315
00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:55,160
The original one.

1316
00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:56,160
The original one too.

1317
00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:57,160
The orangutans, guerrillas, and...

1318
00:53:57,160 --> 00:53:58,560
Yeah, so isn't that crazy?

1319
00:53:58,560 --> 00:53:59,560
Think about this.

1320
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:03,200
You're an orangutan, you show up to work, and you go to lunch break, and all you want

1321
00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:05,600
to do is hang around with the other orangutans you don't like.

1322
00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:06,600
I guess it would make...

1323
00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:07,600
That doesn't make perfect sense.

1324
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:08,800
It does kind of make sense.

1325
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:09,800
Like all the...

1326
00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:10,800
Charleston Heston.

1327
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:11,800
Charlton.

1328
00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:12,800
Charlton.

1329
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:17,520
Charlton Heston, when he...

1330
00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:23,440
I forgot the name of the actress who played the female ape in that movie, in the first

1331
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:27,280
one, but when the actress minus her makeup came up to him one day, and she was like,

1332
00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:28,280
hey, how's it going?

1333
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:32,000
He was like, I don't know you, because he'd never seen her outside of makeup.

1334
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:33,000
Outside of makeup.

1335
00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:34,000
We've got a line cut of her.

1336
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:35,520
But yeah, it is...

1337
00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:41,160
No, no, but if you look at the hierarchy of the commanding structure, it's like if a small

1338
00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:43,160
ape like General Ra...

1339
00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:44,160
Rafe?

1340
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:45,160
What's his name?

1341
00:54:45,160 --> 00:54:46,160
Raph.

1342
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:47,160
Fade.

1343
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:48,160
God, thank you.

1344
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:49,160
Sorry.

1345
00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:52,640
General Fade can become general, but then you have that...

1346
00:54:52,640 --> 00:54:54,880
The senators are all different types.

1347
00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:56,080
They're dating different types.

1348
00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:57,640
It just seems like a very mixed culture.

1349
00:54:57,640 --> 00:55:01,640
I don't think that there's a lot of segregation amongst apes, which I like.

1350
00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:07,680
I know that they're very anti-human, but I would be a little anti whatever the heck pets

1351
00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:10,520
that we had started rising up.

1352
00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:14,380
If dogs all the sudden started talking and then started saying, hey, you're treating

1353
00:55:14,380 --> 00:55:19,400
us unfairly, I say we start taking out all smart dogs.

1354
00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:23,600
Any dog starts talking, I say we take them out, we put them to sleep, and we move on,

1355
00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:24,600
because that...

1356
00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:25,600
We don't want that.

1357
00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:27,080
I saw you get upset with that little girl.

1358
00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:28,080
Why are you...

1359
00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:29,080
I'm not upset.

1360
00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:30,080
I'm just thinking it's funny.

1361
00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:31,080
That's a weird way.

1362
00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:36,080
Again, darkest children audience of all time.

1363
00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:39,040
This is not a dog.

1364
00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:40,040
What is that?

1365
00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:41,040
It's a fox.

1366
00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:42,040
What is a fennec fox?

1367
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:43,040
It's a fox.

1368
00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:44,040
It's a type of fox.

1369
00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:45,040
It's a type of fox.

1370
00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:46,040
It's like a snow fox.

1371
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:47,040
Fennec fox.

1372
00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:48,040
Fennec fox.

1373
00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:49,040
It's like a snow fox, right?

1374
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:52,040
She's really standing up to you, Andy.

1375
00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:53,040
Yeah, idiot.

1376
00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:57,120
They have the giant ears.

1377
00:55:57,120 --> 00:55:59,200
Is that from a show or an anime?

1378
00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:01,680
No, it's my original character.

1379
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:02,680
Oh.

1380
00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:03,680
She made it up.

1381
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:04,680
That's...

1382
00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:05,680
Okay, yeah, I see it.

1383
00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:06,680
Yeah.

1384
00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:07,680
So you just did your own thing.

1385
00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:08,680
Very cool.

1386
00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:10,680
I put on every week to explain things to Andy with your phone.

1387
00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:11,680
Yeah.

1388
00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:12,680
Producer credit.

1389
00:56:12,680 --> 00:56:13,680
Yeah.

1390
00:56:13,680 --> 00:56:14,680
I'm fast enough to get into it, but...

1391
00:56:14,680 --> 00:56:15,680
I don't know.

1392
00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:16,680
I don't know what anyone's dressed...

1393
00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:20,960
What are you dressed up as?

1394
00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:23,160
Malcolm Reynolds.

1395
00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:24,160
Malcolm Reynolds from...

1396
00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:25,160
Firefly?

1397
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:26,160
Great Forno bonnet?

1398
00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:27,160
Oh, wow.

1399
00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:28,160
See, no.

1400
00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:31,840
Once you took the bonnet off, I see it.

1401
00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:36,800
Because of the jacket, you're a brown coat, but you're a filthy brown coat.

1402
00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:38,400
Hey, I'm pro.

1403
00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:41,720
I'm pro whatever the anti-brown coat people are.

1404
00:56:41,720 --> 00:56:47,240
I am for structured, big government when it comes to space travel.

1405
00:56:47,240 --> 00:56:52,680
You can't have these backwards planets just operating like it's the Wild Wild West.

1406
00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:53,800
That's what the black...

1407
00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:54,800
You're pro black market.

1408
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:55,800
You see what happens when you're the ace.

1409
00:56:55,800 --> 00:56:56,800
You're a criminal.

1410
00:56:56,800 --> 00:56:57,800
You're a criminal.

1411
00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,200
You routinely smuggle things around.

1412
00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:01,840
You have a high tech government project.

1413
00:57:01,840 --> 00:57:03,560
That girl, River Fiend, or River...

1414
00:57:03,560 --> 00:57:04,560
Yeah.

1415
00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:05,560
River Fiend.

1416
00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:06,560
Whatever her name is.

1417
00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:07,560
She's a good friend of mine.

1418
00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:08,560
She's a...

1419
00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:11,360
She's a government property, my dude.

1420
00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:12,360
You're stealing.

1421
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:13,360
Yeah, property, bro.

1422
00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:15,160
That isn't my people or property.

1423
00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:17,800
I'm not going to argue that people can be property.

1424
00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:20,600
That's not my stance I'm going to take today.

1425
00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:22,840
It never is my stance I'm going to take today.

1426
00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:29,360
Breon, I would never in my life take that stance.

1427
00:57:29,360 --> 00:57:32,920
But I will say that she's got powers or whatever.

1428
00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:33,920
That should be studied.

1429
00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:35,240
That could help people in the future.

1430
00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:37,840
It's selfish for them to keep her from the government.

1431
00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:40,520
You think the scientists were routinely torturing her every day?

1432
00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:41,520
No.

1433
00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:43,160
They were working on her and doing experiments.

1434
00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:46,360
That helps the future, you dirty brown coat.

1435
00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:48,720
Did Miranda help the future?

1436
00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:49,720
Which one's Miranda again?

1437
00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:54,240
Miranda, you mean the ones exterminated?

1438
00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:56,280
Why did they exterminate them?

1439
00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:57,280
What was their reason?

1440
00:57:57,280 --> 00:58:01,520
To test a new form of mind controlling gas.

1441
00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:03,520
Man, mind controlling gas.

1442
00:58:03,520 --> 00:58:06,200
Not a great thing for a government to have.

1443
00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:08,200
We're going down a phoenix bottom line.

1444
00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:11,520
So we're going to a big government, Darth Vader, mind control.

1445
00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:13,520
Your science today are a little messed up.

1446
00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:14,520
Let's get back to the...

1447
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:15,520
I bet they worked at Cracker Barrel.

1448
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:18,520
I was going to ask for more business.

1449
00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:21,960
I can't tell if Samos is a good guy or a bad guy.

1450
00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:22,960
Samos?

1451
00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:27,200
Samos, the main chimp, the regular chimp that disappears in the beginning and then shows

1452
00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:28,200
up at the end.

1453
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:29,200
No, that's not Samos.

1454
00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:30,200
That's Percules.

1455
00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:31,200
It's Simeon only.

1456
00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:34,320
Simeon is a perc... or Percules or whatever, perculator.

1457
00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:37,320
The monkey that Mark Wahlberg is friends with in the beginning.

1458
00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:38,320
How did you miss that in the movie?

1459
00:58:38,320 --> 00:58:44,560
He goes into a separate wormhole that shoots him out, I guess, a few days later, like a

1460
00:58:44,560 --> 00:58:46,440
week later whenever he gets there.

1461
00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:53,200
But the main ship got sent through the wormhole and crashed hundreds of years earlier.

1462
00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:59,720
And one of the apes from that place started rallying the other apes.

1463
00:58:59,720 --> 00:59:00,720
His name was Simos.

1464
00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:02,280
He was saying Simos relative though.

1465
00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:04,120
He killed all the humans with the other apes.

1466
00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:05,120
Yet they say it in the broadcast.

1467
00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:06,120
I missed it with those.

1468
00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:10,080
Simos came from that sign that said Simeon and Rylets only or something.

1469
00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:11,800
Their god has named that because of...

1470
00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:12,800
But it was...

1471
00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:13,800
No, no, no.

1472
00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:18,040
She says in the broadcast, one of the chimps named Simos is taking over the other chimps.

1473
00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:20,600
Yeah, I thought it was the one, Mark Wahlberg.

1474
00:59:20,600 --> 00:59:23,080
I got all confused with the time travel.

1475
00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:24,640
He goes back to Earth, it's taken over.

1476
00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:25,840
Did he go to another timeline?

1477
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:27,720
Fade somehow came, took over?

1478
00:59:27,720 --> 00:59:28,720
I just did...

1479
00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:29,720
I missed that.

1480
00:59:29,720 --> 00:59:34,280
Banana's friend pan, Arthade, was the...

1481
00:59:34,280 --> 00:59:36,280
His whole family was bad from back there.

1482
00:59:36,280 --> 00:59:37,280
That's the whole...

1483
00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:40,720
In the movie at the end, they talk about how it was all his relatives that did all that.

1484
00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:42,720
He descends from that evil ape.

1485
00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:43,720
Yeah.

1486
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:44,720
Do you have to go?

1487
00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:45,720
Okay.

1488
00:59:45,720 --> 00:59:46,720
Get ready for the cosplay contest.

1489
00:59:46,720 --> 00:59:47,720
Cool.

1490
00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:48,720
Hey, thanks so much.

1491
00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:49,720
Let's give it up for Big Mike Certified.

1492
00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:50,720
He ran this whole thing.

1493
00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:51,720
Let's give it up for him.

1494
00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:54,720
You guys have a few minutes because they need to use this room to get ready.

1495
00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:56,720
We're wrapping this up right now.

1496
00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:57,720
Five, five-ish minutes.

1497
00:59:57,720 --> 00:59:58,720
Okay.

1498
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:00,720
I have some monkey-related pawns.

1499
01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:01,720
Okay.

1500
01:00:01,720 --> 01:00:02,720
Monkey pawns.

1501
01:00:02,720 --> 01:00:03,720
We're doing monkey pawns.

1502
01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:05,720
Monkey Mark in the monkey bunch.

1503
01:00:05,720 --> 01:00:08,720
Monkey Mark came a long way from Boogie Nights, didn't he?

1504
01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:16,720
No, A Clockwork Orangutan, The Great Ape Gatsby, Ape in Silent Baboon Strikeback.

1505
01:00:16,720 --> 01:00:18,720
I worked hard on these guys.

1506
01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:27,720
Optimus Prime 8, The Lion King Kong, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Chimpanzees.

1507
01:00:27,720 --> 01:00:28,720
The Banana Identity.

1508
01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:29,720
All right.

1509
01:00:29,720 --> 01:00:30,720
That's it.

1510
01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:31,720
I'm done.

1511
01:00:31,720 --> 01:00:32,720
Okay.

1512
01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:33,720
Thank you for those.

1513
01:00:33,720 --> 01:00:39,120
I think the most stark thing, I'm willing to believe in time travel, space travel five

1514
01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:44,640
years from now involving apes, space helmets that just sort of work, but I draw the line

1515
01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:51,400
at the end of that tunnel that they come out of being ape-shaped made of stone because

1516
01:00:51,400 --> 01:00:56,960
there's no natural ape-shaped croppings anywhere in the world or on any natural, and there's

1517
01:00:56,960 --> 01:00:59,240
even ape mountains in the background.

1518
01:00:59,240 --> 01:01:00,240
We're running out of time.

1519
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:01,240
Let's do ratings.

1520
01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:02,240
Let's do ratings.

1521
01:01:02,240 --> 01:01:04,960
Or that machine and the wire still working after a thousand years.

1522
01:01:04,960 --> 01:01:05,960
Yeah, exactly.

1523
01:01:05,960 --> 01:01:06,960
Anthony, what's your rating?

1524
01:01:06,960 --> 01:01:09,960
B through F. F for Anthony.

1525
01:01:09,960 --> 01:01:10,960
Mike.

1526
01:01:10,960 --> 01:01:12,960
D for Mike.

1527
01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:14,960
B plus.

1528
01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:16,960
B plus.

1529
01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:17,960
Why?

1530
01:01:17,960 --> 01:01:18,960
Yeah, why?

1531
01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:19,960
I don't know.

1532
01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:20,960
It was good.

1533
01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:21,960
I was nostalgic for the movie.

1534
01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:24,960
I watched it a long time ago when I was a kid, and now rewatching it just made me enjoy it

1535
01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:25,960
more.

1536
01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:28,680
I'm going to give you a C plus for me.

1537
01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:29,680
Don't you put that on me.

1538
01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:30,680
We're losing control.

1539
01:01:30,680 --> 01:01:33,680
This has been Fried Rice Podcast.

1540
01:01:33,680 --> 01:01:40,720
With me as always has been Anthony Mitchell, Mike Larson, Austin Farrell, the audience,

1541
01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:41,720
you guys.

1542
01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:44,000
And I've been your host, Andy Rice.

1543
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:45,640
Thank you so much for joining us.

1544
01:01:45,640 --> 01:01:46,640
We've been fried.

1545
01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:56,400
I miss that.

1546
01:01:56,400 --> 01:02:04,720
Great.

1547
01:02:04,720 --> 01:02:13,940
Have a good night.

1548
01:02:13,940 --> 01:02:15,360
Bye.
