Desmond and Parsayoman have some great movie commentary planned for podcast
Speaker A: Thank the light, everybody. I am Desmond.
Speaker B: This is my hetero lifemate, pars Deoman, actually. Just kidding. I’m Justin. I’m Parsayoman on Twitter.
Speaker A: He’s too busy typing slander into, uh, my chat window to talk to you people out there, you fine, fine listeners out there. Thank you for joining us. We have something very special planned for the next couple of episodes. I have always wanted to do some full length commentaries for movies or shows or something, and it’s just, for whatever reason, it’s never worked out. And I feel like, you know what? We’re at the beginning of this adventure. Everyone’s just finished the first season. They’re probably going to do a rewatch. This would be a really fun way to do a rewatch. We’re going to sync up with you, we’re going to hit play, and we’re just going to bullshit our way through the episodes.
Speaker C: No pausing. Uh, if I got a pee, then.
Speaker A: You’Re just going to have to deal with the silence. If fatty’s doing shots, you’re just going.
Speaker C: To have to be jealous.
Speaker A: I don’t know what else to tell you, bro.
Speaker B: Uh, we’ve been dreaming about commentary since we used to watch the clerks coming. I didn’t know what a commentary track was until you’re like, hey, these dvds, man, they got these commentary tracks and then we started watching them. And I’ll never forget, one of my favorite ones was the fear and loathing one with Hunter s. Thompson.
Speaker D: Yes. And if any of you are fans.
Speaker B: Of the movie fear and loathing, find.
Speaker D: The criterion collection and find one with his.
Speaker B: He calls and leaves Johnny Depp a nasty message. Actually, he leaves Johnny Depp a cool message. He calls Benicio del Toro and calls him like a scumbag. He’s like, you’re not answering the phone because of your goddamn wretched ambition. He goes out and shoots a shotgun.
Speaker A: Even if you’re not a fan of that movie, if you’re fond of good, just random human beingness, that is classic.
Speaker B: Yeah, just random off the cusp funniness. Hunter s. Thompson was a crazy son.
Speaker C: Of a bitch ever. Sorry to cut you off.
Speaker A: My first ever commentary was a double vhs of the movie Scream, and the second vhs had the commentary track on.
Speaker B: That’s a random one for a commentary track. I swear to God, I think it was like clerks or something because there was, like, the clerks guys.
Speaker D: They had a jay and silent Bob commentary.
Speaker B: They had, like, uh, all the guy that the Scott Mosier had a commentary and Dante had a commentary. It was.
Speaker D: So that was the.
Speaker A: I think it was the mall rats one was the total classic where Jason muse kept nodding off and Ben Affleck kept kicking him.
Speaker B: Oh, sweet, sweet heroine.
Speaker A: So good. Which he’s been. I think he’s been clean for way over ten years. That’s what got those two into podcasting, was that Kevin Smith was like, I need to keep you clean, so we’re going to turn on the why.
Speaker B: Did it give you a job?
Speaker A: Exactly. So this is the kind of great commentary that you’re in for. We are definitely not going to stay on track. We will chime in, we’ll talk about some interesting things about the movies, but we might just zone off and talk about Christmas dinner for a little while. And that’s okay.
Speaker B: Buckle in, you nerds.
Speaker A: All right, I’m going to hit play, and then we are going to talk about what we’re seeing on the screen so that we can make sure that we’re in sync, and then you guys can make sure in sync of your video and enjoy the ride.
Amazon original. Amazon made this? Wow. I thought they just sold books
Amazon original.
Speaker D: Here we go.
Speaker E: Smile.
Speaker A: Uh, fan?
Speaker B: No way.
Speaker D: Amazon made this?
Speaker E: Wow.
Speaker D: I know Amazon made this.
Speaker C: I thought they just sold books.
Speaker B: Yeah, I thought it was like, only.
Speaker C: Kindle naked back, not naked back.
Speaker B: She’s got a sexy back.
Speaker D: Dude, I have those gloves on right now.
Speaker E: You do?
Speaker C: Are your subtitles on?
Speaker B: Oh, no, I should put them on.
Speaker C: Probably not that they need to be. I’m just wondering how you roll these days.
Speaker D: Oh, I’m a subtitle, motherfucker.
Speaker B: I’m practically deaf these days.
Speaker E: I’m like, what?
Speaker C: That’s why he’s the dragon reborn, right?
Speaker B: And hey, you know what’s funny? I was just listening to the great hunt and I did get a, uh, clue. Ishamel is yelling at rand in a dream, talking about. She just keeps calling him luce Theron.
Speaker D: And he’s like, this has went on.
Speaker B: Before you were even the dragon. I guess he is the dragon reborn. Even when he’s, uh, the dragon originally, because it’s the same soul. He just wasn’t called the dragon till a certain age.
Speaker A: It’s so weird that he’s named Lou.
Speaker C: Like, if I was.
Speaker A: My next life when my name is Steve, you’re not.
Speaker C: Going to call me Desmond, right?
Speaker B: Well, it’s the sink of loose there.
Speaker D: And it’s like, uh, Billy Joe type.
Speaker B: Of a, uh, it’s one name, but it’s two names.
Speaker D: And then, I don’t know, that was.
Speaker B: A hard one for me to grasp for a long time.
Speaker D: I’m all lose.
Speaker B: You mean Lewis lose?
Speaker E: I don’t know.
Speaker C: Are either one of them like, a designation? Like is like, theron.
Speaker E: Like.
Speaker B: I believe the third name has something to do with you.
Speaker D: Kind of earn that title type of thing. Oh, Leandrin, you’re such a bitch.
So two men have been chased, but. It’S not really two men. Not even a little bit
Speaker A: So two men have been chased, but.
Speaker C: It’S not really two men.
Speaker D: Yeah, we’re at minute 206 right now.
Speaker E: Nice. Good call.
Speaker A: So this is definitely just an introduction for us.
Speaker C: Like, these are nobodies in our main storyline.
Speaker A: This is just a. Yeah, I, uh.
Speaker B: Want to, like watching this. As a non book reader. You’re like, what the hell is happening?
Speaker A: This guy must be important.
Speaker C: No.
Speaker D: Right now, not at all.
Speaker B: Not even a little bit. I mean, he could be if it comes out.
Speaker D: Because there are some things that were like.
Speaker B: And whether it’s true or not, it’ll.
Speaker D: Be coming to fruition.
Speaker B: But they talk about how the white tower likes to prop up false dragons.
Speaker D: To make themselves look good. So this guy could be right.
Speaker A: If they’re not fighting crime, then why do they exist?
Speaker B: Right? If this guy could end up being somebody important.
Speaker D: But I don’t think.
Speaker B: Hate. You know what? You’re filthy, Leandrin. You know what? She doesn’t even hold a candle to book Leandrin.
Speaker C: Uh, I didn’t realize.
Speaker A: They don’t show any of the power.
Speaker D: Yeah, they really don’t because she said.
Speaker C: Sisters, so in theory, they grouped up for that one.
Speaker D: Yeah, well, I think she just kind of mean, like, the Reds, because that’s.
Speaker B: Their whole goal in life, is to.
Speaker D: Find men and gentle them.
Speaker E: And have.
Speaker B: A lot of girl on girl action because they really hate men.
Speaker C: I mean, that’s why I like women.
Speaker A: I got nothing against dudes, but I like women way more.
Speaker C: That’s all there is to it.
Speaker E: Same. Yeah.
Speaker B: Uh, pretty people and parts. Just let them go. This is a really cool shot. I don’t know what this is. Fuck is this? Oh, hey, you know what this is? This is that first shot from the metropolis.
Speaker D: Dude, it is middle of the spot.
Speaker B: Remember?
Speaker A: There’s the middle.
Speaker B: Dude, that’s the first shot. You know what? I actually saw something on Twitter about that the other day, and I didn’t know what they were talking about. Now I get it.
Speaker D: Oh, that’s badass. So our lan and her are right there, then. So obviously that’s not the eye of the. Oh, right, right. Yeah.
Speaker B: The blight is not there because they’re already there.
Speaker D: So I wonder where they’re at when that’s happening. That’s right.
Speaker A: I forgot the short intro on this episode.
Speaker C: They just like, let’s go.
Speaker D: That’s why I’m super excited on the.
Rewatch this show because it’s so layered, dude
Speaker B: Rewatch, because this show is so fucking layered, dude. I don’t even realize it myself.
Speaker D: I won’t even realize it even on.
Speaker B: Rewatch, dude, how layered it is.
Speaker D: It’s awesome.
Speaker C: I forget that Nynaeve is who inducts her.
Speaker B: Yeah, she’s wisdom.
Speaker D: She’s in charge of all the.
Speaker B: Gwen, uh, is a character you kind.
Speaker D: Of love to hate.
Speaker A: Did you see, I don’t know if I tweeted it or just texted it.
Speaker C: That I saw a lot of braids last month.
Speaker B: What do you mean?
Speaker A: I haven’t seen that many braids since.
Speaker C: The mocking j. Oh, you’re talking about.
Speaker B: Like, just irl, uh, like, real life.
Speaker E: Yeah.
Speaker B: I hope that it has this kind of an impact.
Speaker D: Like I said, this was such a.
Speaker B: Part of my growing up, man.
Speaker D: They’d have to fuck it up really.
Speaker B: Bad for me to hate it. And they’re definitely not fucking it up. I think it’s such a huge story to digest.
Speaker D: They’re doing the best they can, and.
Speaker B: It’S one of those things that will.
Speaker D: Get better and better, because the more information that you have, the better the story gets.
Speaker A: So this is one of those things, like you were saying, this isn’t directly from the book.
Speaker C: Like, this scene probably went on for.
Speaker A: Two chapters, and they just summed it.
Speaker C: Up with girl power. Push.
Speaker B: Yeah, no, I mean, they just talk about how the women’s circle is very.
Speaker D: Strong in Emansfield and, um, that, uh.
Speaker B: Men m are kind of ridiculous. And even though there’s, uh, a men’s. I don’t know what’s a men’s club or whatever, but the village council, I think, is what they call it. But then they have the women’s circle, and they’re kind of, like, equal parts.
Speaker D: So for almost like a diplomacy type thing.
Speaker A: They’re called masons.
Speaker C: Justin.
Speaker D: Oh, God.
Speaker E: Jesus. Oh.
Speaker C: Uh, you whiny little berry picker.
I grew up shooting a bow. I couldn’t have a bow at home
Speaker B: It was hard to see Bruce Bolton as Tam because I’m just like, oh.
Speaker D: Uh, stab that fucker. He’s a terrible person.
Speaker B: I’m like, wait, but he’s Tam, so.
Speaker D: Now I love him.
Speaker B: He’s pretty quick with the bow.
Speaker D: Easy. Fucking trigger.
Speaker C: I gotta work on a bow and arrow. I’ve always even back playing games, even before Lord of the rings came out. People who are quick with a bow is. That’s a very sexy weapon.
Speaker D: Have you ever watched the boys?
Speaker A: Yeah. For some reason, we haven’t finished. It’s one of those shows that just.
Speaker C: Kind of got lumped in with a bunch of shit, and we never finished it.
Speaker D: There’s a character in one of those in the second season, he’s like, why.
Speaker B: Am I going up against people with Mac ten s? I have a bow and arrow.
Speaker E: He’s like.
Speaker B: Then I realized it’s timeless. It’s not outdated or something like that.
Speaker D: Uh, give this guy a bow and arrow. He’s basically Hawkeye.
Speaker C: I remember before all the Marvel movies.
Speaker A: Came out, Patton Oswald had a bit.
Speaker C: Where he’s just like, go to the avengers.
Speaker A: Uh, they got a guy with a bow and arrow in there. They’ll let fucking anybody in.
Speaker B: I grew up shooting a bow.
Speaker C: Oh, did you?
Speaker A: Oh, God, you’re such a hick.
Speaker C: I forget it’s not a hick thing.
Speaker A: To do, but it’s just backwoodsy kid shit.
Speaker C: But I forget that you grew up.
Speaker D: Pretty hick thing to do, but not.
Speaker A: In the city, because you just don’t have room. I couldn’t have a bow and arrow at home, but I knew friends who lived on the outskirts that did. So I was straddling both worlds.
Speaker B: Yeah.
Speaker D: Uh, I had a budy whose dad.
Speaker B: Would go, like, deer hunting with the compound bows. So we’d go out and shoot bow all the time.
Speaker D: It was pretty fun.
Speaker A: I love seeing this bar scene with all the. I think that the first thing that.
Speaker C: You see is the women just partying, dude.
Speaker B: It was funny too, because they just.
Speaker C: Immediately are showing, like, this is a different world.
Speaker E: Yeah.
Speaker D: That’s one of the things that I.
Speaker B: Can’T really hammer home enough.
Speaker D: It’s just like you kind of said.
Speaker B: In one of our first episodes, this show screams that it was written now and it was written 25 years ago, dude.
Speaker D: And the things that are really coming.
Speaker B: Across as being current are the stuff that they’re definitely not leaving out of the book, which I love. Yeah. The thing that is kind of really hit me in the face right here.
Speaker D: It’s like they’re very innocent kids in.
Speaker B: The books, so to see them in an ale, and Matt being kind of.
Speaker D: Like, lecherous a little bit, even though.
Speaker B: You realize he’s wanting to steal the gal’s bracelet, it’s know, you’re kind of like, dude, these aren’t my Eamon’s fielders that are so innocent, and we’re talking about stealing badgers and shit and putting them in someone’s canning hen house or something. I don’t know. That was one of the big things Matt’s like, I caught a badger. We’re going to let it loose and.
Speaker D: Send know chicken coop.
Speaker B: Uh, and it’s like, now we’re going to get drunk.
Speaker D: I’m going to steal some shit.
Speaker B: We pushed Iguin in the river.
Speaker D: It’s like this fucking.
Speaker C: They’re partying.
Speaker A: Iguin is. Oh, he, uh, already knows he’s lost his.
Speaker D: Yep, yep.
Speaker B: He’s already heard about it. He’s like.
Speaker D: He won’t give it up, though, this fucking kid.
Speaker C: I mean, he’s the dragon.
Speaker A: No matter how nice of a dragon he is.
Speaker B: I like that. Galaxy is just, like, smoking. The ladies just smoking the pipe at the table, like, what’s up?
Speaker E: I know.
Speaker A: It’s so much later. I didn’t realize this at first, that they’ve been.
Speaker C: This is like hour six of this party.
Speaker D: You made a really good comment. You’re just like, yo, it’s so fast.
Speaker B: And yet so slow at the same time, waiting. You start getting into the book, amaya.
Speaker D: The world, you’ll be like, that’s a perfect assessment.
Speaker B: Because it’s literally like, some parts that are just screaming through, and then it’s.
Speaker D: Like, um, let’s fucking minute detail this.
I have a theory about why Rosamund pike is so theatrical
Oh, that was a stones board.
Speaker B: Stones is a game that they play in this world.
Speaker D: It’s kind of like chess, I think.
Speaker C: Oh, no way. Oh, my God.
Speaker A: Already?
Speaker C: I did not. Yes, it is.
Speaker E: God.
Speaker B: I don’t really, like love m Rosamund pike, but her as moraine kind of.
Speaker D: Gives me a little junior woodchuck.
Speaker B: The one thing I don’t love about her is she’s. Her over theatrical channeling.
Speaker A: That’s got to be direction, though.
Speaker C: I don’t think that’s a actor choice.
Speaker D: I feel like, here’s my theory, and.
Speaker B: Please, anyone listening, feel free to weigh in.
Speaker D: It’s like blues are very strong channelers.
Speaker B: But they also are kind of like. You can tell she’s kind of obiwanish. She’s like a jack of all trades. She’s strong, but she’s diplomatic. She knows how to talk to people and the right way at the right time. And I think that’s part of it. I think it’s like the greens are.
Speaker D: More adept with using the power in.
Speaker B: Uh, a defensive type of way. The reds, too, their strengths are probably shields because they have to shield men. You know what I’m saying?
Speaker D: And this isn’t something that I really is, like a book thing.
Speaker B: This is just what I’m gathering from the show, like, why she’s so theatrical.
Speaker D: It’s like, yes, blues can be very powerful, weaving kind of battle magic, quote, unquote.
Speaker B: I think she’d have to be a little more theatrical about it because they don’t have as much practice.
Speaker D: I mean, that’s just what I think. Because, like, you can see in the.
Speaker B: Scene with Loghain and stuff, when we.
Speaker D: Get, like, you’ll see the greens are.
Speaker B: Much more judicious with, uh, their very, very small, almost like force push style.
Speaker E: Like, who?
Speaker B: And they do, uh, a lot of damage.
Speaker A: Well, and the first time we see.
Speaker C: Rosamund pike wield the power, she’s moving a fucking she.
Speaker A: I don’t think she moves quite that much later.
Speaker B: Yeah, well, we’ll get to that when.
Speaker C: We get to it.
Right now, Perrin is talking to his almost late wife
Right now, Perrin is talking to his almost late wife.
Speaker E: Yeah.
Speaker C: Pregnant wife.
Speaker E: Is she pregnant?
Speaker A: Well, he grabs her belly as if.
Speaker C: To say, like, I don’t know. They really zoomed in on that belly tap.
Speaker D: Yeah, that’s true. I wonder almost, uh, if, uh, the.
Speaker B: Closeness with Egwene is because maybe her and Layla were very close.
Speaker D: Maybe Layla seems. Maybe she likes girls, too. Yeah, well, I mean, it’s like, I don’t.
Speaker B: Like. You always try to. When you watch something like this, you read too much into it.
Speaker D: You’re like, okay, is she just kind.
Speaker B: Of tough looking because she’s a blacksmith?
Speaker D: Are they trying to gender roll her.
Speaker B: Up into the kind of more butchy girl on girl? It’s like, she’s probably just a blacksmith. Dude, calm down.
Speaker A: Yeah.
Speaker B: This was weird to me, too, because, uh, the. Know, I’m, um. Not that there’s not issues in those kind of families, but they really, like, Matt’s family was not, to my knowledge, like this. You know, his dad was a really good guy.
Speaker D: His dad was really best friends with Rand’s dad, and their families were close.
Speaker B: And it was nothing, like, super dysfunctional.
Speaker D: Like, mom’s drunk and dad’s a lecherous asshole. He was close with his sisters, for sure, but more like just in like.
Speaker C: A. I, uh, wonder if this is to make Matt’s downturn a little bit more believable.
Speaker A: Like, he comes from darkness, so it.
Speaker C: Was an easy switch for him to hit bottom, to be honest.
Speaker B: I think it was part of the kind of, like, uh, the trolling of the five headed dragon to make him be like, oh, this would be the.
Speaker D: Last guy you want to go to.
Speaker B: Be the dragon, because he’s already halfway there as far as the dark side.
Speaker C: Yeah.
Speaker B: And even they make Perrin, even though.
Speaker D: Perrin is just as virtuous as ran. Like, how do I say this ran’s one of those cats that does right, no matter what.
Speaker B: Well, if it’s right and I have to get my arm cut off of the elbow, like fucking okay.
Speaker D: I messed up.
Speaker B: Parents kind of like, yeah, you know what? Maybe that’s the right thing to do. But I’m more important whole to the people that I’m taking care of. So while you might be right, you can go ahead and fuck off. Unless you’re going to come take that arm yourself.
Speaker A: You’re going to take all of me.
Speaker C: Or none of me.
Speaker E: Yeah.
Speaker B: Perrin’s, like, virtuous in a way, but.
Speaker D: He’S also like, that’s why I just.
Speaker B: Man, um, that kid. I really hope it’s not poor direction, but they’re really kind of trying to play up. Oh, I’m just a big guy, and I got to be slow and think about everything or I’m going to hurt somebody.
Speaker D: And so that when he.
Speaker B: I think they’re trying to make his shift more dramatic than it is in the books, and it’s kind of a slower process.
Speaker D: Oh, sexy kissing.
Speaker A: Yeah.
Speaker D: I don’t know if ran and egwene.
Speaker B: Ever kiss in the books.
Speaker C: That’s so weird.
Is there any love affairs in the books? They’re very vague about it
Speaker A: Is there any love affairs in the books? I mean, besides the.
Speaker D: Just very.
Speaker B: They’re very vague about it.
Speaker D: Robert Jordan was like, that was one.
Speaker B: Of the things I really liked about it, is so many things. It’s like, at least some point they’ll get too into the love affairs and.
Speaker D: It’S like they’re there, but it’s also kind of like, yo, we’re in a fucking three year death race to the last battle.
Speaker B: We don’t exactly have time for fucking love affairs.
Speaker D: If we can steal some kisses, maybe.
Speaker B: A night together when we’re not getting attacked, great.
Speaker D: But we’ll fuck when it’s over.
Speaker B: Yeah, if we get a chance to fucking lay one out, let’s do this. But my priority is, like, I got.
Speaker D: To get these people ready for the last battle. That’s weird.
Speaker A: I was just going to say, were they younger in the book?
Speaker C: But no, they have to be 20.
Speaker A: The whole point of the story is 20 years.
Speaker C: So they’re like, yeah, you’re getting.
Speaker E: Oh, sweet.
Speaker D: Hello.
Speaker C: Speaking of sexy.
Speaker E: But.
Speaker C: He’S a pretty good looking dude.
Speaker B: What can you say?
Speaker D: He’s a big, tall, strong man.
Speaker C: If I had to get in that hot tub, I’m not sure which direction I would go.
Speaker D: I got two hands.
Speaker A: I would definitely ask for the water to be warmer.
Speaker B: I saw these memes of land in the books. Oh, death is heavier than mountain sheep herder land. M in the show. My water is too cold, mom.
Speaker C: Chilly much?
Speaker B: Honestly, too. It is one of the things that.
Speaker D: I do kind of look, I mean.
Speaker B: Probably because I’m an OCD freak and.
Speaker D: If I take nine showers a day.
Speaker B: But the fact that they’re not dirty as fuck all the time in this show, like, God damn. It’s like, could you imagine the smell of Game of Thrones people if they were real?
Speaker D: It’s just like, you all go, hop in that river.
Speaker B: And seriously, that’s, uh, as easy it is, too.
Speaker A: Yeah. It’s not like you have to run.
Speaker C: A hot bath and get fucking bubbles going. Like, just jump in the river.
Speaker B: Yeah, fucking take some grass and scrub your tain a little bit. Scrub that. Scrub the tain off.
Speaker A: Sighting the fact that head exists at all in Game of Thrones is just. And I’m a dirty dog. I am a dirty, dirty dog.
Speaker C: But no.
Speaker D: Seriously, dude, I’m going to.
Speaker B: Go get a hooker. No, never. It smells like fucking three week old fish, and I don’t want any of.
Speaker D: That or what might come of it.
Speaker B: Weirdo. Dude, the only reason I said that is I’ve been listening to these troop crime podcasts.
Speaker D: There was this lady who.
Speaker B: She killed her brother by accident, supposedly. But then she was a professor someplace.
Speaker D: And someone took the last booster chair.
Speaker B: At Applebee’s or something, and she’s like, I will make a herpes bomb.
Speaker A: And.
Speaker B: This is a real person.
Speaker A: Oh, my God.
Speaker D: I was listening to it today, and.
Speaker B: I was like, what?
Speaker D: Whoa, is that a thing?
Speaker B: Can you make a scientific herpes bomb? That sounds terrifying.
Speaker A: Are you watching the new Dexter?
Speaker D: I watched the first episode, and it was good.
Speaker A: I’ve been watching it.
Speaker C: There’s a true crime podcast on there that’s kind of got Dexter pegged, and.
Speaker A: That’S kind of part of the twist.
Speaker C: It’s interesting. Oh, cool, we got a fade.
Speaker D: Uh, I’m so glad that they didn’t.
Speaker B: Fuck this up because the fades that.
Speaker D: I’ve seen from fandom drawings are almost like. They look like a curly haired blonde.
Speaker B: Guy with a pale, maggoty skin.
Speaker D: And it’s a little creepy in its own way, but I think that they did good being a little more m monstrous with it.
Speaker B: They got a little voldemorty with it.
Speaker D: With teeth, but that’s okay.
Speaker A: M. I’m going to keep my eye on this guy.
Speaker D: Talking too much. I should be looking for Easter eggs.
Speaker A: I want to see what’s his name again? Potato.
Speaker C: No, this isn’t pot on fane, is it?
Mark: Matt has a really big transformation in the books
Speaker E: Or, uh.
Speaker C: Is this pot on who?
Speaker B: Right here. No, this is.
Speaker A: Who’s the. Not this guy.
Speaker D: Why did she have scars on her wrist? That’s Perrin. That’s put on faint. That’s put on Faint.
Speaker E: Yeah.
Speaker C: I’m going to keep my eye on him.
Speaker E: Yeah. Ah.
Speaker D: Seriously, watch how much that motherfucker shows up, dude. Oh, Matt.
Speaker B: He was such a good, dark Matt. I think that it’s going to be okay, because Mark, Matt has a really big transformation in the books.
Speaker D: He’s kind of a whiny little fuck.
Speaker B: And then he gets all weird and paranoid because of the dagger. And then they heal him and he gets better, but he’s still kind of like Han soloish was like, I don’t want to be a good. I don’t want to stick my neck out for people.
Speaker D: But he always ends up doing just.
Speaker B: And by the end, it’s like he’s.
Speaker D: So, like, there’s a million trollocs coming. He’s like, here we go again, bro. He just, like, jumps right in.
Speaker B: Shots, shots, shots.
Speaker D: Yeah, I need buffalo trace whiskey.
Speaker C: Yes. Justin, what are you drinking?
Speaker D: Buffalo trace whiskey.
Speaker B: Can we get a sponsorship? Because it’s delicious.
Speaker D: I have buffalo trace soap, and it makes me smell wonderful. What?
Speaker A: You have the same soap and whiskey?
Speaker E: That’s hot.
Speaker B: Lisa got me this suckin’soap for Christmas.
Speaker E: It’s awesome.
Speaker A: And I’m drinking straight, cold brew coffee.
Speaker C: So we’re going to be going different directions quickly.
Speaker B: You’re going to be, um, up longer than I will, I guarantee you.
Speaker C: I fall asleep before you.
Speaker D: Cold brew makes me sleep.
Rand and Igwin talk about how they’ll never be together
Speaker C: Rand and Igwin are sitting on the ledge talking about how they’ll never be together. And it’s sad.
Speaker D: It is kind of sad.
Speaker C: My name is Rand, and I just.
Speaker A: Want to be a goat herder all my life. I don’t want anything else to happen.
Speaker C: Ever, except goats and the herding.
Speaker D: Just want to have babies with my girl, Egwene and be the leader of the sheep.
Speaker B: Trust me, Rand, you do way better.
Speaker D: Budy and Gwen sucks.
Speaker A: No, don’t talk about her like that.
Speaker C: She’s beautiful.
Speaker B: She was a bad girlfriend. She’s beautiful, but she’s a bad girlfriend.
Speaker D: She’s not super loyal.
Speaker A: She wants her own thing.
Speaker C: And unfortunately, her own thing is celibacy.
Speaker E: But.
Speaker A: Hey, everyone out there. You know what’s not sexy?
Speaker C: Celibacy.
Speaker B: Dude, I saw this kid at, uh, the store the other day wearing a virginity rocks t shirt, and I was just like what?

Speaker D: Yeah, no, he was like, fucking 50. I’m just kidding. No, I’m just kidding.
Speaker B: He was like, uh.
Speaker E: Oh.

Speaker C: What do you call those fuckers?
Speaker B: The fucking lame ass white men that live in their parents basement and are selled by choice because no one wants to have them.
Speaker C: What do you call Sella? Who cares?
Speaker B: They suck anyway. It doesn’t matter.
Speaker A: I know. I can’t believe.
Speaker D: It’S kind of trippy.
Speaker B: How they went all predator with Nineveh’s braves braids. I should say whiskey’s kicking in rut.
Speaker E: Row.
Speaker D: Because I always picture her braid.
Speaker B: Just being, like, super thick and long.
Speaker D: Like, uh, egwene’s, but, uh.
Speaker B: She’S got.
Speaker D: Like, the dirty little fucking braids all into one. I don’t understand what this is either. This whole, like, uh, incel.

Speaker D: Long you’ve had your braid, lady.
Speaker C: Oh, that is what she’s. Thank you. She is just attacking her. Uh, but, uh, I guess moraine, she’s.
Speaker A: Just all about the ends justify the means and she just wants her fucking.
Speaker C: Answers no matter how rude she has to be.
Speaker B: Yeah, she’s about as fucking subtle as a brick to the head. She’s just like, yeah, I don’t fucking got. I think she’s like, it’s kind of like one of those things. It’s like when you’re a line cook and you’ve been fucking 8 hours, you’re like, can we just bang out these last four orders and get the fuck out of here? She’s been on this shit for 20 years. She’s like, can we just get the dragon and get this over with? I’m ready to die or keep whatever.
Speaker D: I can’t do this job anymore.

Speaker C: Now that are just like, you cooked? I was just like, fuck yeah.
Speaker D: Direct, dude.
Speaker B: I cooked. I was a fucking slayer of a cook. I was Conan the fucking breakfast cook.
Speaker A: Yeah, I went to college at 38.
Cooking breakfast makes you sad. Cooking dinner makes you angry
That’s how much I cooked.
Speaker D: Dude.
Speaker B: And why I decided like right when I first moved to Seattle, like, hm, I’m going to dive headfirst into line cooking. When I used to pick you up at glows on Sundays, and you’re just sitting out back crying, smoking cigarettes, like, what’s wrong? You’re like, nothing.
Speaker D: It’s just my day.
Speaker C: This is what cooking breakfast does to you.
Speaker A: Cooking dinner makes you angry. Cooking breakfast makes you fucking sad.
Speaker B: Yeah, I was doing good until the vegan heroin addict I worked with went and fucking nodded off in the bathroom for 2 hours. And then we got really behind.
Speaker E: What?
Speaker A: Yeah.
Speaker E: Dude.
Speaker B: It’s funny, I remember pick you up that day. That was when I first moved to Seattle. That was when we got really to be really tight. It was like, you’re like, dude, can you just pick me up? I can’t ride the bus home. I have had a hell of a day. I was like, I’m on my way, bro. I had a blunt and like an 8th of weed. We’re going to get super stoned. It’s all good. Uh, you’re just sitting out back with.
Speaker D: Your head in your hand. Oh man, that looks fun.
Speaker A: He didn’t have either one of those things. Well, he maybe had the 8th, but he had a four foot bong between his legs.
Speaker C: He did not have a blunt, people.
Speaker B: Okay. You know, it was 22 inches.
Speaker A: Justin used to measure bongs by how.
Speaker C: Well they fit in his car.
Speaker B: Yeah, I’m like, oh, sweet. Can I just tilt my head a little bit and hit the bong while driving? Perfect.
Speaker C: It’s just under the window, but I could reach it. Sold.
Speaker E: Jesus.
Speaker B: I have kids, dude. Um, what the hell? They’re good kids too. That’s the crazy part.
Speaker A: They’re great kids. We were at Thanksgiving dinner, the whole fucking family is there.
Speaker C: And my cousin goes, so are you.
Speaker A: Sober sober or are you California sober?
Speaker B: Well, like, you eat edibles all day.
Speaker E: Yeah.
Speaker A: And it was one of those things too, where her and I were kind of having a private conversation, even though it was in the middle of everybody, but everybody was having a loud conversation. And of course, the kind of California.
Speaker B: Sober, I take CBD and Zolof.
Speaker A: So yeah, everything, it was just all the air got sucked out of the room and all you could hear was see you sober, sober, California sober.
Speaker B: You hear the records? Uh uh. You know what? We’ll come back to this. I got to go pee.
Speaker A: Uh, I’m definitely not Zolof sober.
Speaker C: I’ll tell you that much, folks.
Speaker E: Last.
Speaker A: Time I refilled, my doctor gave me a year’s supply.
Speaker B: Jesus fuck. That’s the difference between California and Washington. Fucking Lisa couldn’t fucking suck somebody’s dick.
Speaker D: For fucking ten larazepam a month.
Speaker B: But if you want fucking, uh, some sort of antidepressant, they’re like, we got you for the next ten years, budy.
Speaker D: Yeah, I got a bad knee and.
Speaker B: A jacked up back.
Speaker D: I couldn’t beg somebody for ten vicid in a month.
Speaker A: Yeah, you got to kill for.
Speaker B: Not that I really want it. It’s just some days it’s like, man, I can’t sleep.
Speaker D: My knee hurts.
Speaker A: I won’t abuse it, doc, but you just got to give me five a month.
Speaker B: Seriously, just keep it coming.
Speaker D: Ain’t fucking cutting it, bro.
So, lanterns are being released. This is just the lull before the battle
Speaker A: So, lanterns are being released.
Speaker B: Oh, uh, back to the show.
Speaker A: I forget how much we see of Perrin’s wife. I always think that they, like, show her just so we know who she is, and then he stabs her.
Speaker C: I forget we.
Speaker D: Hey.
Speaker B: Ow.
Speaker D: Dude.
Speaker A: Actually get to see them hanging out.
Speaker B: What the fuck are you doing? My dog is, like, trying to attack my hand.
Speaker E: Stop.
Speaker C: Oh, that’s right. Annie, Gwyn or Nynaeve. She’s all sad because this is fucking cute.
Speaker D: I totally didn’t need any of this, though.
Speaker C: I mean, this is great.
Speaker E: Great.
Speaker B: Whatever. I don’t see any point to having this for the story.
Speaker A: This is just the lull before the battle. This is just to give us.
Speaker E: Yeah.
Speaker B: Oh, look how quaint these country people are.
Speaker D: But that’s the thing that really, people.
Speaker B: Even this far south, and they’d say.
Speaker D: If you’re going from, uh, extreme north.
Speaker B: To extreme south in this world that we’re in, extreme north is like, the blight sheal goal. Extreme south is tier Ilian, and that’s on the sea of storms, and that’s the furthest you can go. And people in tier and Ilian are.
Speaker D: The point where they’re like. They don’t like channelers. They don’t even really believe that there.
Speaker B: Are people in Ilian that don’t believe in snow.
Speaker E: Okay.
Speaker B: I’m not joking. They say it in the books.
Speaker E: Stop biting me.
Speaker B: Yeah, no, they say it in the books.
Speaker A: I don’t believe in beetles.
Speaker C: I just believe in me.
Speaker B: Yeah, no, it’s like. She’s like, oh, she doesn’t believe in.
Speaker D: Trolley or fucking snow.
Speaker B: And I’m like, uh, well, those are two big problems.
Speaker A: I don’t believe in Santa Claus or teachers.
Speaker B: I came here to chew bubblegum and kick some ass, and I’m fresh out of fucking bubblegum.
Speaker C: All out of gum.
Speaker A: Speaking of lulls, I’m going to go.
Speaker C: Piss before the battle.
Speaker D: Oh, like, you know Denunzio, I love their square dancing. It’s so cute.
Speaker B: Peron’s really good at it, too, by the way. He actually closes his mouth.
Speaker E: That’s cool.
Speaker D: This poor fucking guy just dancing with a pretty girl.
Speaker B: He’s like, oh, I’m having a good day. Oh, trolloc.
Speaker D: Axe to my back.
Speaker B: Worst prom ever.
Speaker E: Jesus.
Speaker B: Uh, the town looks so good, though.
Speaker D: Like, I mean, just. It’s what you picture their village looking like.
Speaker E: Uh.
Speaker C: Whoa.
Speaker E: Sorry.
Speaker C: The subtitle said screaming.
Speaker D: I was like, whoa, is that you, or is that a trolley fun? Just that, uh.
Speaker B: They did such a cool job on the village, man.
Speaker D: It’s so awesome.
Rand assumes his sisters died because in the books they go to Tarvalin
Speaker B: Fun fact about wheel of time. Did you know that peaches are poisonous in this world?
Speaker C: Really?
Speaker E: Yeah.
Speaker B: You know why you don’t know that?
Speaker D: Because they didn’t tell you that we’re.
Speaker B: Going to pot on fane.
Speaker D: Fuck you, you asshole.
Speaker C: Yeah, he’s just gone.
Speaker D: That guy’s a jerk.
Speaker B: Dude.
Speaker E: I.
Speaker B: Seriously, I cannot wait until Matt comes into his.
Speaker C: Was.
Speaker D: We?
Speaker A: Cause they made a big deal about him getting lanterns. Does he have some other sisters that died?
Speaker B: I’m thinking that that’s what that is. I’m not sure, because, like I said, that’s something that is. That trolley right there is fucked up, dude. The Rabbit looking one that’s on all.
Speaker D: Fours eating the guy that gives me fucking nightmares.
Speaker B: Um, yeah, no, I don’t get the whole lantern things. I don’t know if it was. I’m guessing maybe it was a couple of his older sisters that died. I’m thinking that maybe because they could.
Speaker D: Channel and they died because in the books they go to Tarvalin, but I.
Speaker B: Think that’s a good way to just kind of, like, eliminate the older sisters from the story.
Speaker D: That’s just my theory. I don’t have any, like.
Speaker A: Or maybe they left.
Speaker C: He assumes they’re dead.
Speaker D: Oh, shit.
Speaker B: I like that. That’s a good one. I like that a lot.
Speaker A: I lit lanterns for you for ten years.
Speaker E: Yeah.
Speaker B: You turds.
Speaker D: You just went to be with the witches. No. Uh uh.
Speaker A: Do you know how many bracelets I stole?
Speaker D: Yeah.
Speaker B: You know how many people I robbed? That makes me a little bit sad, because Matt wasn’t really a thief. He was, like, a trickster, but not.
Speaker D: Dude, can I just tell you.
Speaker E: Okay.
Speaker D: From the start of the. Wow. As a book person, if you didn’t just stop breathing for these entire scenes. Uh, watching this come to life was something I read when I was 15 years old. And, uh, it’s just dude Tam pulling.
Speaker B: Out the sword and then the troll. Like, seeing a trolloc on screen brought to life, and it’s every bit as horrifying as you’ve imagined. The heron.
Speaker D: Yes, the heron.
Speaker B: Mark Blade.
Speaker E: Uh, yeah.
Speaker B: Just seeing them on the screen, and.
Speaker D: They’Re being every bit as hulking and terrifying, and I imagine them very stinky and gross. They just look sweaty and greasy.
Speaker C: Oh, uh, bye.
Speaker A: Yeah, right through the.
Speaker B: Get him, Rand.
Speaker D: He had, like, a spear or something.
Speaker A: A, uh, fire poker.
Speaker B: Oh, yeah.
Speaker E: Okay.
Speaker D: Oh, yeah.
Speaker C: This is Rand’s first. Oh, black blood. Was that black blood?
Speaker D: So the deal with that.
Speaker B: No, it’s like, their swords are made. There’s, like, a forge, a blacksmith’s forge, and near shea Al Gol, where the dark one is. And the way they make their blades.
Speaker D: They have, like, a poison in a lot of them.
Adukin’s performance as Shai Rukin was amazing
Speaker B: Uh, and if you even get nynaeve.
Speaker D: Dude, I like naive in the books.
Speaker B: But she’s 50 50 in the books because she gets kind of, like, comically.
Speaker D: Over the top, like, oh, my God, that was so dope.
Speaker B: What did she even do? She just eviscerated the fucker with the power.
Speaker A: Oh, yeah. It looked like she made it disappear, but she didn’t. She split that fucker in two.
Speaker B: Yeah.
Speaker D: Just like dear light.
Speaker E: Shai Rukin.
Speaker D: Yeah, seriously, Adukin, uh, lan is just.
Speaker B: Death with the blade. He’s done a good job because he’s good with the blade. And, uh, he had to be believable.
Speaker D: With the blade, so they did good casting. Uh, like I said, as someone who’s.
Speaker B: Been dreaming of seeing this for fucking 30 years, like, I can’t even. Just.
Speaker D: Yes. Oh, yes.
Speaker B: Everywhere. Yes.
Speaker D: Do some more. Yes.
Speaker B: That was sick.
Speaker D: That was so jedi.
Speaker A: That was understated. That was just like.
Speaker C: She blinked and that sword went right in the center of his forehead.
Speaker D: That’s Egwene’s mom. Come get some of this.
Speaker B: That’s just some foreshadowing because the two rivers. You think this is a bad trolloc attack? The two rivers goes through some shit. So that lets me know that that’s.
Speaker D: A storyline that they’re definitely going to keep.
Okay, here it is. Watch it. Yeah, I want to see what goes down here
Speaker C: Okay, here it is. Let’s see what happens.
Speaker D: Yeah, I want to see what goes down here.
Speaker A: So what we’re looking at, folks, is.
Speaker C: If Perrin maybe saved his own life instead of stabbed an innocent woman.
Speaker D: Dude, she’s got her hammer drawn over his head.
Speaker B: Watch it.
Speaker D: Dude.
Speaker C: I’m telling you why she wouldn’t just.
Speaker B: Let him die right there, though, if that was the case.
Speaker D: It doesn’t make any sense.
Speaker C: True.
Speaker E: Yeah.
Speaker B: Them doing this at the beginning just lets me know that they’re going to keep Matt’s arc fucking hardcore.
Speaker E: Cool, dude.
Speaker D: She’s tough, dude. Uh, yeah, land.
Speaker C: I love how he’s just dancing around her.
Speaker D: Dude, like I said.
Speaker B: Just like I said, man. Someone who’s been dreaming of this, uh, the rest of the seven episodes could have been complete garbage, and they weren’t. But I was fucking sold after this.
Speaker D: I was like, dude, everything is going to be okay. She looks perfect.
Speaker A: I forgot she went up and grabbed lightning.
Speaker C: I forget that.
Speaker A: We just see every.
Speaker C: She unleashes all the power.
Speaker B: Yeah, Moraine is pretty strong.
Speaker E: Ah.
Speaker D: Uh, she’s probably like a 3.5 to.
Speaker B: Four in just about everything.
Speaker D: Healing, attacking out of five.
Speaker B: Out of five. If you’re five strongest.
Speaker E: Sorry.
Speaker D: She’s fucking wicked with that warhammer, dude. Get him, Perrin. That’s what I want to see from Perrin.
Speaker B: Yeah, gritted teeth, not open mouth, bro.
Speaker D: See? What’s she going to hit right there? What’s she going to hit?
Speaker C: Yeah.
Speaker D: Maybe it’s a battle frenzy thing.
Speaker B: I don’t know, but it’s like, dude, I’m sorry. She had both hands on it drawn.
Speaker D: Back over her head.
Speaker B: Uh, she’s going to smash that dude’s brains.
Speaker A: Yeah, she was dropping that hammer on something.
Speaker B: Maybe she just had it talked back in case the trolley kicked parent out.
Speaker D: Of the way or something.
Speaker B: But you know what, when you’re directing something like this, nothing is that simple and that subtle, in my opinion.
Speaker A: Uh, no accidents. Yeah, not in a framed shot like that. Not when it’s like.
Speaker B: Exactly.
Speaker A: You’re the only thing we can see.
Speaker D: Do this, you get that half second.
Speaker B: Of her with it drawn back over her head. This is really cool, too, because it’s.
Speaker D: Like you just hear about this in.
Speaker B: The books, and so to see it actually happening is. But to see the, you know, fighting the way they are, it shows you.
Speaker D: How strong they are as, like, a village or group of people take it. Oh, Moraine, uh, got staked, right? That’s close to the heart.
Speaker A: I’m just really enjoying watching this with headphones.
Speaker D: Yeah.
Speaker A: Sword just whizzed past my head.
Speaker D: I know, I heard it. I have it turned way down, too, dude.
Speaker B: Just the trollocks. And you know what? The trolley will get cooler, too.
Speaker D: Was that you?
Speaker E: Yeah.
Speaker D: Oh, God. Jesus and all chewy.
Speaker A: Oh, have you seen the map of tiny, perfect things?
Speaker E: No.
Speaker A: It’s the cutest time travel movie you’ll ever see.
Speaker C: But there’s a dog in it named Chewbarka.
Speaker D: What’s she doing right there?
Speaker B: Is she drawing heat off the fire?
Speaker C: She is, dude.
Speaker D: She is using.
Speaker A: Oh, my God. She’s bringing it from the mountaintops. So do they channel the earth’s energy, or is this more like the force?
Speaker B: Like I said we were talking about, there’s five powers, and there’s earth, wind, air, fire, water, and spirit. And so it’s kind of force ish.
Speaker A: But more because the force, I always imagine the force is what’s in between.
Speaker C: Fire, water, earth, air.
Speaker A: But it seems like they’re actually drawing from the elements.
Speaker B: Yeah, I kind of think of it more like the force than magic, because.
You don’t have to be born with the spark to channel power
Speaker D: They are making conjuring motions, but it’s.
Speaker B: More like, to me, it’s inside of you, and you’re using what’s around you, which is, like, to me, that sounds.
Speaker D: A whole lot like midichlorians.
Speaker C: She is spent.
Speaker A: Don’t ever say that fucking word on this podcast again.
Speaker E: What?
Speaker C: The m word. Why is it forbidden?
Speaker A: It suggests that if you’re not born.
Speaker C: With it, you can never achieve it.
Speaker A: And it’s the worst thing that ever.
Speaker C: Happened in the Star wars universe.
Speaker B: Well, here’s the thing about this that makes it better. You can learn to channel the power.
Speaker D: You don’t have to be born with the spark.
Speaker E: Spoiler.
Speaker A: That’s what I mean.
Speaker C: Yeah, in wheel of time, you can earn it.
Speaker D: But that is, uh, not everybody, but.
Speaker B: There are people who can learn, and there is no real difference in it. Looks like a face over there in the clouds.
Speaker D: I think I’m hiding.
Speaker C: Don’t tell me muggles can’t be magic.
Speaker D: Yeah, no, that’s the thing.
Speaker B: It’s like, um, there are people who can definitely learn even though they don’t have the spark, and they can be just as strong as someone born with the spark. Generally, people born with the spark are stronger because that is kind of a genealogy lineage thing, which is one of the reasons why the AES sedai females.
Speaker D: Keep getting weaker and weaker, because they’re not mating with other channelers.
Speaker C: Oh, I want to mate with a channeler.
Speaker E: Yeah, right.
Speaker B: Have a little magic, baby man. Okay, budy, you’re three, but you’re going.
Speaker D: To do all the chores, wash the car.
Speaker A: I mean, obviously, there’s other reasons why.
Speaker C: I couldn’t be with her, but I.
Speaker A: Told, uh, one of the hosts of all the answers that I could never be with her because I couldn’t have.
Speaker C: Sex with someone who could read my mind.
Speaker D: That’s why the aliens won’t come back.
Speaker C: Bro, you only get to know what I do.
Speaker A: You don’t get to know what I’m.
Speaker C: Thinking about doing, do you?
Speaker B: The aliens will never reveal themselves to us until we can stop hiding all our secrets.
Speaker D: Because they communicate telepathically. Not to get science, bro.
Speaker C: That’s just science.
Speaker D: Yeah.
Speaker B: These are facts that I know. Two things that I know. Chewbacca is real. And they don’t steal your fucking cell phones. People in the ghetto don’t steal your cell phones.
Speaker A: God, I just referenced that the other night out of fucking nowhere.
Speaker C: That’s hilarious.
Speaker D: What a random pat and Oswald crazy parent.
Speaker B: Here comes the mouth opening with parent.
Speaker E: God damn it.
Speaker D: Blessed delight. Oh, great.
Speaker B: Everybody’s sad.
Speaker D: Uh, the wine spring is destroyed.
Speaker C: Great.
Speaker D: Dude, seriously, every time I look at Rand’s face, some people don’t. Like. I think there are people who just absolutely love Yosha. Ah.
Speaker B: As ran. And some people are just know.
Speaker D: Most people who are haters are like, I don’t like ran.
Speaker B: It’s like every time I look at his face, I see the empathy. I see ran, and I. Seriously, it almost makes me want to.
Speaker D: Cry, because knowing what he has to go through and seeing his face and.
Speaker B: Knowing his character already, it just makes me like, uh.
Speaker D: Oh, man, buddy, it’s going to get.
Speaker B: So rough for you.
Speaker A: I just realized she’s surrounded by a.
Speaker C: Thousand injured people, and she healed that motherfucker.
Speaker D: Exactly.
Fatty posted a video of Winston dancing in the snow with a lightsaber
Uh, did, uh, you hear that? That’s Winston. That’s my little wolf brother, Winston.
Speaker B: He wants to be on the podcast. He’s been having so much fun in the snowman.
Speaker D: It’s been crazy. Oh, I don’t know if you saw that, everybody.
Speaker A: Have you posted that picture? Did you post that video on Twitter?
Speaker B: The one where I’m running around the.
Speaker D: Lightsaber and he’s chasing.
Speaker A: It’S people.
Speaker C: Uh, if you haven’t seen it, dig.
Speaker A: Around Fatty’s Twitter feed and find him dancing in the snow with a lightsaber. I call it dancing because it’s just beautiful. But it’s cool anyways. But to see it reflecting in the.
Speaker C: Night off the snow, it’s, uh, so beautiful, everybody.
Speaker B: That was why I had to do it. I was like, the glow and with the white snow. Man, it’s so cool. My neighbor kid, he lives up the way.
Speaker D: He’s like eight.
Speaker B: His, ah, name is Boston. He’s the cutest kid, man. He got a lightsaber for Christmas because.
Speaker D: Me and him were fighting.
Speaker B: I dressed up, uh, know, Luke and Lisa dressed up as Ray for Halloween.
Speaker D: And so we had some lightsaber battles, but he got a lightsaber for Christmas.
Speaker B: From his grandma or thing. His dad, he lives out here. He’s like, uh, the first thing out of his mouth was, man, I can’t.
Speaker D: Wait to go show Justin his lightsaber.
Speaker B: And, uh, it was funny. I told him, I’m like, hey, you can get my number from your dad, so you can text me when you’re here. Because he’s only here on the weekends. And he, uh, texted me, like, the next day. He’s like, hey, I’m still here for a while. Do you want to have a lightsaber battle? I was like, oh, sorry, buddy.
Speaker D: I got some stuff to do.
Speaker B: And I was like, but, um, when I get done, I’ll text you. And he’s like, okay, how about in 1 hour? And then I was like, okay, if I’m done, budy, I’m totally down. But if not, he’s like, okay, I have to go back to my mom’s. We will battle next week.
Speaker D: Then.
Speaker A: The wheel of time turns, and.
Speaker B: He’S such a cutie pie. He’s like eight years old.
Speaker C: Man, that is rad.
The cinematography and the landscape are amazing in this film
Speaker D: Yeah, this is awesome, because this is.
Speaker B: Like, every book ends and kind of.
Speaker D: Starts with a little thing like this. Yeah, dude.
Speaker B: Watching this for the first time, seeing all the characters.
Speaker A: So why is Nynaeve?
Speaker D: Why is Nynaeve what?
Speaker A: Oh, because she got captured. Because she can’t be the one.
Speaker C: Because she’s 24.
Speaker A: But I forget that she doesn’t actually leave town with them.
Speaker C: She got drug out by trollecks.
Speaker B: Yeah, she got fucking yoinked by that big ass trolley.
Speaker E: The wind was not the beginning.
Speaker B: Yeah, no. This whole little endings are beginnings and all that of the will of time.
Speaker A: It was a beginning.
Speaker E: God.
Speaker B: Uh, the landscape and. Dude, I’m sorry. The cinematography and the landscape. Um, I know they have, like, drones for shots like that that they probably couldn’t get even ten years ago, but.
Speaker A: Dude, where is this film?
Speaker B: I know they’re filming in Prague right now, but I think that’s where it was before, too.
Speaker A: I don’t know why I don’t picture Prague having that much. I don’t know why I picture Prague as being more. Not like New York, but I don’t know why I picture more towns and not like Lord of the Rings.
Speaker B: Well, I think the city itself is. But then right outside of it. Yeah. Like fucking New Zealand. Lord of the Rings style. Exactly.
Thank the Light podcast features guest commentary from the Wolf brothers
Well, that’s the end of episode one. Man, that went fast.
Speaker A: That went really fast. This is fucking rad.
Speaker B: I’m loving. Uh, dude, you and I have wanted to do a commentary. Should we pause, um, between episodes then, and just do a whole new. Should I do another voice recording so I don’t have to send them both to you?
Speaker A: Uh, no, just let it roll.
Speaker B: Okay. You can edit it later.
Speaker A: Yeah, because I’ll probably bang these out at the same time because they won’t take much editing. Like, I’ll cut out all of your. Uh, no, I’m just joking.
