00:00:17.160 --> 00:00:20.140
Welcome to Fandom Shmandom, the fandom podcast
00:00:20.140 --> 00:00:24.559
that covers everything you love and more. I'm
00:00:24.559 --> 00:00:27.300
Sierra Obermark. And I'm Sam Williams. In this
00:00:27.300 --> 00:00:29.079
episode, we will be giving you guys a little
00:00:29.079 --> 00:00:33.259
sneak peek behind the curtain. We will be discussing
00:00:33.259 --> 00:00:36.420
all of our categories, how we are organizing
00:00:36.420 --> 00:00:41.869
this podcast for you guys. And what was the reason
00:00:41.869 --> 00:00:43.850
behind why we named the categories what they
00:00:43.850 --> 00:00:48.070
are? Because they're kind of nonsensical unless
00:00:48.070 --> 00:00:50.350
you have a little bit of information behind them.
00:00:50.409 --> 00:00:53.469
Or if you get every reference, then great. But
00:00:53.469 --> 00:00:55.750
not everybody will get every reference. There's
00:00:55.750 --> 00:00:58.030
one in particular that's really just for Sierra
00:00:58.030 --> 00:01:00.990
and I. So moving on, moving forward. That's okay.
00:01:02.350 --> 00:01:04.829
First thing, just want to let everybody know
00:01:04.829 --> 00:01:08.319
that when we say, without further ado. as roger
00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:11.579
smith says dive on in that is an american dad
00:01:11.579 --> 00:01:14.280
reference to roger smith the alien character
00:01:14.280 --> 00:01:17.500
who in one season is australian and runs a business
00:01:17.500 --> 00:01:19.319
and every time he meets somebody he says the
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:22.400
slogan of the business dive on in so that's why
00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:25.939
we do that uh which is not so much a category
00:01:25.939 --> 00:01:28.439
it's just me wanting to brag that i i know cool
00:01:28.439 --> 00:01:31.939
things that's american dad is not that it's fine
00:01:31.939 --> 00:01:35.640
all right whatever um all right so this first
00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:39.659
category Get up to 88, because it's time to travel
00:01:39.659 --> 00:01:43.420
back to our story recap. Sierra, what is this
00:01:43.420 --> 00:01:47.480
a reference to? Back to the future. Yeah. Woo
00:01:47.480 --> 00:01:51.739
-hoo! Woo. Good old little 1980s nostalgia science
00:01:51.739 --> 00:01:57.579
fiction. Going back to the 50s. Marty McFly almost
00:01:57.579 --> 00:02:01.400
doing his mom. It's terrible. It's a really weird,
00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:05.200
wacky story when you say it out of context. Yeah,
00:02:05.260 --> 00:02:07.439
this is the 1980s. This is some sci -fi nostalgia
00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:09.460
going back to Marty McFly and his trouble with
00:02:09.460 --> 00:02:11.699
his parents and almost breaking them up and almost
00:02:11.699 --> 00:02:14.240
disappearing with Doc and everything. We're doing
00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:16.960
this because we are traveling back to show you
00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:19.000
guys all the different things that happen in
00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:23.080
the episodes that we've watched for our episode
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:25.960
of the podcast. So that's pretty self -explanatory.
00:02:26.889 --> 00:02:29.370
We will sometimes have what we call an expert
00:02:29.370 --> 00:02:32.189
corner, which for this season is our executive
00:02:32.189 --> 00:02:35.870
producer, Aurelia, coming in and giving us information
00:02:35.870 --> 00:02:38.930
on the books. And then our friend, friend of
00:02:38.930 --> 00:02:42.449
the pod, Elizabeth Wade Stickle, who is a history
00:02:42.449 --> 00:02:44.449
teacher and will be giving us some real life
00:02:44.449 --> 00:02:47.469
information. So when we say, before we get to
00:02:47.469 --> 00:02:50.150
that nitty gritty schmitty, we welcome blank
00:02:50.150 --> 00:02:52.909
to provide us with that vital information. That
00:02:52.909 --> 00:02:56.460
is our expert corner. And those are like. People
00:02:56.460 --> 00:02:58.460
who have gone and done some real work to help
00:02:58.460 --> 00:03:00.539
us out on the pod to give you guys even better,
00:03:00.580 --> 00:03:03.400
further context and analysis of these characters
00:03:03.400 --> 00:03:06.800
and of this show. Sierra, go ahead and read.
00:03:06.840 --> 00:03:09.860
What is this next category? The next category,
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:13.199
find your donut holes. It's time for our knives
00:03:13.199 --> 00:03:16.020
out category, where we sleuth out which three
00:03:16.020 --> 00:03:18.419
storylines are the most vital to pay attention
00:03:18.419 --> 00:03:21.159
to. Yeah, and listeners, you'll have to sleuth
00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:23.650
out. How many times do we say sleuth? Versus
00:03:23.650 --> 00:03:33.550
Sooth. Sooth. Sus. Scooth. Skeeth. Yep. We may
00:03:33.550 --> 00:03:35.389
have said a bunch of different versions of this
00:03:35.389 --> 00:03:40.050
by the time you've listened in. So, Knives Out,
00:03:40.110 --> 00:03:42.770
of course, is the Daniel Craig mystery detective
00:03:42.770 --> 00:03:46.310
movies that have been really fun to come out.
00:03:46.349 --> 00:03:49.849
The third is out, possibly, by the time you listen
00:03:49.849 --> 00:03:52.069
to this. It's about to be out as we're recording.
00:03:53.130 --> 00:03:56.169
And this is about us identifying, over the course
00:03:56.169 --> 00:03:57.870
of all the episodes that we are talking about,
00:03:57.909 --> 00:03:59.750
what are the actual three storylines that are
00:03:59.750 --> 00:04:03.030
important to pay attention to, and why. So we'll
00:04:03.030 --> 00:04:05.810
be detailing all of that. Following that category
00:04:05.810 --> 00:04:08.610
is, keep your finger on the pause button and
00:04:08.610 --> 00:04:11.889
rewind that tape, it's the Prestige category.
00:04:12.349 --> 00:04:15.229
What did we notice on this watch through? The
00:04:15.229 --> 00:04:18.870
Prestige is a Christian Bale, Hugh Jackman movie
00:04:18.870 --> 00:04:23.680
that Sierra absolutely idolizes. I love it so
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:29.180
much. It was really impactful for me. And I absolutely
00:04:29.180 --> 00:04:32.439
adore this movie. It's fantastic. And it's also
00:04:32.439 --> 00:04:36.459
entirely different on a second rewatch. Exactly.
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:39.139
Because it's one of those big, huge twist movies.
00:04:40.579 --> 00:04:47.199
It is very, very interesting to go back and rewatch
00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:52.519
this movie. This is a category to really draw
00:04:52.519 --> 00:04:54.899
attention to the things that you may have missed
00:04:54.899 --> 00:04:57.319
on the first time that you watched it. And then
00:04:57.319 --> 00:05:01.240
going back with more information, fresh eyes,
00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:04.819
what potentially could you pick out that you
00:05:04.819 --> 00:05:07.899
didn't see before? Yeah. So one of the big things
00:05:07.899 --> 00:05:10.259
that we'll talk about is there is a part in one
00:05:10.259 --> 00:05:12.319
of the seasons before we ever know anything about
00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:16.079
Vecna where Vecna's clock chimes. And you're
00:05:16.079 --> 00:05:19.050
just like. Now, having heard that sound and know
00:05:19.050 --> 00:05:22.310
what that means, it's kind of mind -blowing when
00:05:22.310 --> 00:05:25.470
it happens in the television show. So that's
00:05:25.470 --> 00:05:28.889
what that category is for. Next one. You know,
00:05:29.009 --> 00:05:31.709
you don't always have to face down a horde of
00:05:31.709 --> 00:05:35.670
angry soldiers by yourself. Buckle up, Schmisseners.
00:05:35.730 --> 00:05:38.750
It's our Sansa is smarter than John category.
00:05:39.250 --> 00:05:42.649
What is this, Sierra? What is the most important
00:05:42.649 --> 00:05:46.230
character moment? It's... From Game of Thrones.
00:05:46.350 --> 00:05:49.550
Yes. In case you didn't get it, from Sansa and
00:05:49.550 --> 00:05:52.370
Jon, there's people who haven't seen Game of
00:05:52.370 --> 00:05:56.470
Thrones. That's true. It's possible. It is possible
00:05:56.470 --> 00:05:58.329
you didn't recognize those names, but that's
00:05:58.329 --> 00:06:02.569
what it's from. So the reason why we named it
00:06:02.569 --> 00:06:06.449
as such is because there's this whole arc later
00:06:06.449 --> 00:06:08.490
on in Game of Thrones, which this is a spoiler
00:06:08.490 --> 00:06:10.290
for Game of Thrones, so if you were watching
00:06:10.290 --> 00:06:12.750
it, I guess tune us out for like 30 seconds.
00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:17.639
So Jon is up in the north, finally kind of free
00:06:17.639 --> 00:06:20.480
of his Nightwatch stuff, and he's with Sansa
00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:22.639
trying to defend Winterfell, and there's a huge
00:06:22.639 --> 00:06:25.180
hold of angry soldiers coming his way, and he's
00:06:25.180 --> 00:06:28.480
like, oh, tough it out. I got this. Hold my beer,
00:06:28.579 --> 00:06:30.920
Sansa. And Sansa just, like, sidesteps his beer
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:34.160
and lets it fall, and she instead goes and is
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:36.800
political and gets a whole army to come and rescue
00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:42.300
him. So, but that's a hugely important character
00:06:42.300 --> 00:06:45.180
moment. for Sansa. It's this moment of sort of
00:06:45.180 --> 00:06:48.959
full realization of her character, from dainty
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:51.360
little pretty thing that's only there to be married
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:54.899
off, to I have survived through some of the worst
00:06:54.899 --> 00:06:57.740
horrors that this world has to offer, and I'm
00:06:57.740 --> 00:07:01.360
stronger and better and smarter than all of you
00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:03.480
around me. So that's why when we're talking about
00:07:03.480 --> 00:07:05.399
the most important character moment in these
00:07:05.399 --> 00:07:08.019
episodes, why we've named it sort of after Sansa.
00:07:08.300 --> 00:07:12.060
The next is, I know you just lost a hand, but
00:07:12.060 --> 00:07:16.709
listen up. It's the I am your father category
00:07:16.709 --> 00:07:20.670
for most iconic character moment. Iconic character
00:07:20.670 --> 00:07:24.290
moment, meaning this moment is huge for this
00:07:24.290 --> 00:07:27.050
character, whether the fandom loves it or whether
00:07:27.050 --> 00:07:29.589
the show really sells it or anything of that
00:07:29.589 --> 00:07:33.310
nature. So you think about Darth Vader extending
00:07:33.310 --> 00:07:36.509
and being like, I am your father. It's a huge.
00:07:37.050 --> 00:07:39.550
giant character moment both for luke and for
00:07:39.550 --> 00:07:42.930
vader right it's incredibly revealing but a fandom
00:07:42.930 --> 00:07:45.389
we separated it out from important character
00:07:45.389 --> 00:07:47.870
moment because sometimes there's there's just
00:07:47.870 --> 00:07:52.129
a really really fun awesome not that important
00:07:52.129 --> 00:07:55.990
moment that fandoms just absolutely adore that
00:07:55.990 --> 00:07:57.649
has nothing to do with like an importance to
00:07:57.649 --> 00:08:01.490
the storyline exactly yeah something that is
00:08:01.490 --> 00:08:07.759
potentially more Or when you think about this
00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:11.040
series or you think about this season, this is
00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:13.300
what you think of. And it doesn't necessarily
00:08:13.300 --> 00:08:16.459
have to have anything to do with the main plot
00:08:16.459 --> 00:08:21.740
or to be the most impactful, but it's iconic.
00:08:21.939 --> 00:08:25.519
Yeah, iconic. Which leads us to the next one.
00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:30.500
Everybody sit down. It's time for our I am Iron
00:08:30.500 --> 00:08:35.019
Man, which is most iconic. And most important
00:08:35.019 --> 00:08:40.200
scene category. This, if you didn't get it, is
00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:45.340
from Iron Man. Yeah, a scene that is both the
00:08:45.340 --> 00:08:48.159
most important and the most iconic. And the most
00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:51.879
iconic. Because not only is this scene, like,
00:08:51.879 --> 00:08:55.679
extremely quoted and referenced by its own material
00:08:55.679 --> 00:08:58.720
for the ultimate moment of that series of MCU
00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:02.120
movies. It's also extremely important for both
00:09:02.120 --> 00:09:05.200
real -life versions. Robert Downey Jr. ad -libs
00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:06.960
that line, they keep it, and it becomes this
00:09:06.960 --> 00:09:09.659
huge, amazing ending that everybody loves and
00:09:09.659 --> 00:09:13.100
skyrockets this movie, creating the MCU single
00:09:13.100 --> 00:09:16.919
-handedly. And it is also important in the movie
00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:21.259
because it drives home Tony's whole message that
00:09:21.259 --> 00:09:24.360
it's actually me, not some random vigilante that's
00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:28.620
doing this. I have changed my heart. Huge, huge,
00:09:28.620 --> 00:09:32.480
huge. So in this, we'll be grabbing what we think
00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:34.340
is both the most iconic and the most important
00:09:34.340 --> 00:09:37.179
scenes, which usually, for moments, you can get
00:09:37.179 --> 00:09:38.620
away with splitting them, but for scenes, they
00:09:38.620 --> 00:09:41.259
almost always coincide. So we may have honorable
00:09:41.259 --> 00:09:42.879
mentions or stuff like that, but there's almost
00:09:42.879 --> 00:09:45.759
always one exactly that you can pick. Crack open
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:48.759
in the encyclopedia, Sierra, as Elijah Wood once
00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:52.139
said, no, how could we have known? This is where
00:09:52.139 --> 00:09:54.399
we discuss the most important information disseminated
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:57.879
to the fandom over these blank amount of episodes,
00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:02.330
right? This is a pretty deep pull. It's a very
00:10:02.330 --> 00:10:06.690
famous tweet from Elijah Wood, if you are deep
00:10:06.690 --> 00:10:08.710
in fandom as Sierra and I are. But there's this
00:10:08.710 --> 00:10:13.610
awesome tweet where Rise of Skywalker was about
00:10:13.610 --> 00:10:16.909
to release on Disney Plus or something, and Star
00:10:16.909 --> 00:10:20.710
Wars Holocron released as a tweet this information
00:10:20.710 --> 00:10:23.590
that it was like, Did you know that the planet
00:10:23.590 --> 00:10:26.110
of Exegol was formed with Sith worshippers who
00:10:26.110 --> 00:10:27.970
were creating the Forsterter fleet the whole
00:10:27.970 --> 00:10:30.570
time? And it's just like, if you've seen Rise
00:10:30.570 --> 00:10:33.629
of Skywalker, spoilers for this, but this fleet
00:10:33.629 --> 00:10:35.490
and Palpatine just kind of come out of nowhere
00:10:35.490 --> 00:10:38.470
with no world building, no lord building. They
00:10:38.470 --> 00:10:42.970
just kind of drop Palpatine and the fact that
00:10:42.970 --> 00:10:45.090
now all Star Destroyers are also Death Stars.
00:10:45.450 --> 00:10:48.950
They just can't keep getting away from planet
00:10:48.950 --> 00:10:53.850
-killing technology. And it's just really frustrating.
00:10:53.990 --> 00:10:56.070
But then... The Star Wars Holocron goes and drops
00:10:56.070 --> 00:10:58.629
this information. Which is like, no, of course
00:10:58.629 --> 00:11:01.570
nobody knows. And Elijah Wood, Frodo Baggins
00:11:01.570 --> 00:11:05.490
of all people, goes, no. He, like, re -quotes
00:11:05.490 --> 00:11:09.029
the tweet. And then above it says, no. How could
00:11:09.029 --> 00:11:14.600
we have known? So, um. I will use this in whatever
00:11:14.600 --> 00:11:17.080
context possible, and I thought it had to be
00:11:17.080 --> 00:11:21.059
a category, where we are discussing sort of what
00:11:21.059 --> 00:11:23.399
is the most important information to the fandom
00:11:23.399 --> 00:11:26.320
in this series of episodes. Later on, we have
00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:29.559
big takeaways, and this is kind of a precursor
00:11:29.559 --> 00:11:31.879
into big takeaways. So not everything is a big
00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:33.679
takeaway, but there might be little pieces of
00:11:33.679 --> 00:11:37.799
information, like how physics works, or how somebody's
00:11:37.799 --> 00:11:40.279
powers may have adjusted or are different from
00:11:40.279 --> 00:11:43.360
one another. So that's where that information
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:47.960
belongs. Keep your horses safe. It's the I'm
00:11:47.960 --> 00:11:51.159
gonna make him an offer he can't refuse category
00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:54.639
for best lines. Super self -explanatory. The
00:11:54.639 --> 00:11:58.120
Godfather. Yeah. Yes. It's pretty self -explanatory.
00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:01.500
The line I'm gonna make him an offer he can't
00:12:01.500 --> 00:12:05.200
refuse is the best line in the movie. In all
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:08.279
three movies. In all three movies. It's definitely
00:12:08.279 --> 00:12:12.129
the most quoted. Yes, if you would like to argue,
00:12:12.289 --> 00:12:15.970
please drop your Godfather lore in the comments.
00:12:15.970 --> 00:12:18.889
In the comments, yeah. And we can discuss if
00:12:18.889 --> 00:12:22.429
you think that there's a better one. I will be
00:12:22.429 --> 00:12:26.769
hard -pressed to agree with you, but please challenge
00:12:26.769 --> 00:12:32.570
me on that one. Yeah, certainly. Dust off that
00:12:32.570 --> 00:12:35.289
card deck and get ready to shuffle. It's our
00:12:35.289 --> 00:12:40.399
Joker category for who is the MVP. Of this episode,
00:12:40.580 --> 00:12:42.419
story arc, movie, whatever it is that we're doing.
00:12:43.460 --> 00:12:46.159
This is a Dark Knight reference, the second of
00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:48.159
the Christopher Nolan Batman movies, where Heath
00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:54.919
Ledger, RIP, plays the Joker. And the Joker is
00:12:54.919 --> 00:12:58.759
the MVP. He's the most valuable player in that
00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:03.240
movie. By far. The movie's great. And the first
00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:06.480
Batman Begins movie... Incredible. It's a great
00:13:06.480 --> 00:13:09.080
movie. Liam Neeson's in it as a villain. He's
00:13:09.080 --> 00:13:12.799
awesome. But nothing quite drives Dark Knight
00:13:12.799 --> 00:13:16.120
into the stratosphere of one of the best movies
00:13:16.120 --> 00:13:20.440
ever made than Heath Ledger's Joker. Both the
00:13:20.440 --> 00:13:22.960
writing for it and his acting. So when we're
00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:25.399
picking MVPs, we've named it after the Joker
00:13:25.399 --> 00:13:30.860
because of how clear of an impact that character
00:13:30.860 --> 00:13:35.600
has on that movie. Exactly. This last category
00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:43.480
is really just for Sam and I. Clean your evil
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:48.860
lair and get ready for our I was the turkey all
00:13:48.860 --> 00:13:54.960
along category. What is the biggest takeaway
00:13:54.960 --> 00:13:58.139
viewers should leave with in preparation for
00:13:58.139 --> 00:14:04.019
whatever we are preparing you for? This is an
00:14:04.019 --> 00:14:10.580
invader zim -hole. Yes, it is! This is something
00:14:10.580 --> 00:14:15.700
that Sam and I quoted to each other, sent back
00:14:15.700 --> 00:14:21.159
and forth videos of, would hide in random places
00:14:21.159 --> 00:14:24.600
and pop out and yell to each other. This was
00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:26.879
our, like, never gonna give you up. Constantly.
00:14:27.139 --> 00:14:30.220
To each other. Our Rickrolls or whatever it is.
00:14:30.519 --> 00:14:35.039
Yes, Rickrolls. This was our Rickroll for years.
00:14:37.019 --> 00:14:41.080
So it's a moment where Invader Zim, who's this
00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:42.639
little alien that's trying to infiltrate Earth,
00:14:42.720 --> 00:14:44.679
owns this house in a neighborhood and in the
00:14:44.679 --> 00:14:47.519
basement is his evil lair. And he goes down and
00:14:47.519 --> 00:14:51.220
there's this Thanksgiving turkey just down there.
00:14:51.839 --> 00:14:55.679
And Invader Zim has this little side companion
00:14:55.679 --> 00:14:58.080
named Gur, which stands for garbage and robot.
00:14:58.279 --> 00:15:01.200
It's like a malfunctioned robot that the people
00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:03.120
who gave him this mission wanted to fail. And
00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:04.580
Gur doesn't work that well, but Gur is hilarious.
00:15:05.360 --> 00:15:07.940
And so Zim just sort of looks over at this turkey
00:15:07.940 --> 00:15:10.940
and ignores it. And then the turkey explodes
00:15:10.940 --> 00:15:14.000
and it goes everywhere. And Gur goes like, ta
00:15:14.000 --> 00:15:16.919
-da! And Zim just ignores him. And he goes, oh,
00:15:17.000 --> 00:15:19.340
there you are, Gur. And then he keeps talking
00:15:19.340 --> 00:15:22.580
and Gur goes, it was me! And Zim's like, uh -huh.
00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:28.340
And he goes, it's me! I was the turkey all along!
00:15:29.179 --> 00:15:33.919
And Zim just completely ignores it. But it's
00:15:33.919 --> 00:15:37.639
just like, it's the big realization, right? It's
00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:40.100
the big realization is what we're going for.
00:15:40.200 --> 00:15:42.399
What's the biggest takeaway? Because the biggest
00:15:42.399 --> 00:15:44.539
takeaway in that moment is that Gur was inside
00:15:44.539 --> 00:15:49.330
the turkey all along. I don't know that we're
00:15:49.330 --> 00:15:51.190
very good at this, Sierra. People maybe should
00:15:51.190 --> 00:16:01.289
fire us. I love it. Hey, we've said if you enjoy
00:16:01.289 --> 00:16:05.789

00:16:05.789 --> 00:16:10.389

service announcement comes from turkeys. Please

forget to tip your categories and fare thee well
00:17:08.930 --> 00:17:11.170
Fandom Schmandum was created by Sam Williams
00:17:11.170 --> 00:17:13.750
and Sierra Obermark. The show is produced by
00:17:13.750 --> 00:17:16.230
Aurelia Lieb. The editor is Brittany Fisher.
00:17:16.430 --> 00:17:37.619
The music is by Jeremiah Alves. We're giving
00:17:37.619 --> 00:17:40.380
you guys a little sneak peek behind the curtain
00:17:40.380 --> 00:17:42.180
here, where we...
00:00:17.160 --> 00:00:20.140
Welcome to Fandom Shmandom, the fandom podcast
00:00:20.140 --> 00:00:24.559
that covers everything you love and more. I'm
00:00:24.559 --> 00:00:27.300
Sierra Obermark. And I'm Sam Williams. In this
00:00:27.300 --> 00:00:29.079
episode, we will be giving you guys a little
00:00:29.079 --> 00:00:33.259
sneak peek behind the curtain. We will be discussing
00:00:33.259 --> 00:00:36.420
all of our categories, how we are organizing
00:00:36.420 --> 00:00:41.869
this podcast for you guys. And what was the reason
00:00:41.869 --> 00:00:43.850
behind why we named the categories what they
00:00:43.850 --> 00:00:48.070
are? Because they're kind of nonsensical unless
00:00:48.070 --> 00:00:50.350
you have a little bit of information behind them.
00:00:50.409 --> 00:00:53.469
Or if you get every reference, then great. But
00:00:53.469 --> 00:00:55.750
not everybody will get every reference. There's
00:00:55.750 --> 00:00:58.030
one in particular that's really just for Sierra
00:00:58.030 --> 00:01:00.990
and I. So moving on, moving forward. That's okay.
00:01:02.350 --> 00:01:04.829
First thing, just want to let everybody know
00:01:04.829 --> 00:01:08.319
that when we say, without further ado. as roger
00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:11.579
smith says dive on in that is an american dad
00:01:11.579 --> 00:01:14.280
reference to roger smith the alien character
00:01:14.280 --> 00:01:17.500
who in one season is australian and runs a business
00:01:17.500 --> 00:01:19.319
and every time he meets somebody he says the
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:22.400
slogan of the business dive on in so that's why
00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:25.939
we do that uh which is not so much a category
00:01:25.939 --> 00:01:28.439
it's just me wanting to brag that i i know cool
00:01:28.439 --> 00:01:31.939
things that's american dad is not that it's fine
00:01:31.939 --> 00:01:35.640
all right whatever um all right so this first
00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:39.659
category Get up to 88, because it's time to travel
00:01:39.659 --> 00:01:43.420
back to our story recap. Sierra, what is this
00:01:43.420 --> 00:01:47.480
a reference to? Back to the future. Yeah. Woo
00:01:47.480 --> 00:01:51.739
-hoo! Woo. Good old little 1980s nostalgia science
00:01:51.739 --> 00:01:57.579
fiction. Going back to the 50s. Marty McFly almost
00:01:57.579 --> 00:02:01.400
doing his mom. It's terrible. It's a really weird,
00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:05.200
wacky story when you say it out of context. Yeah,
00:02:05.260 --> 00:02:07.439
this is the 1980s. This is some sci -fi nostalgia
00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:09.460
going back to Marty McFly and his trouble with
00:02:09.460 --> 00:02:11.699
his parents and almost breaking them up and almost
00:02:11.699 --> 00:02:14.240
disappearing with Doc and everything. We're doing
00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:16.960
this because we are traveling back to show you
00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:19.000
guys all the different things that happen in
00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:23.080
the episodes that we've watched for our episode
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:25.960
of the podcast. So that's pretty self -explanatory.
00:02:26.889 --> 00:02:29.370
We will sometimes have what we call an expert
00:02:29.370 --> 00:02:32.189
corner, which for this season is our executive
00:02:32.189 --> 00:02:35.870
producer, Aurelia, coming in and giving us information
00:02:35.870 --> 00:02:38.930
on the books. And then our friend, friend of
00:02:38.930 --> 00:02:42.449
the pod, Elizabeth Wade Stickle, who is a history
00:02:42.449 --> 00:02:44.449
teacher and will be giving us some real life
00:02:44.449 --> 00:02:47.469
information. So when we say, before we get to
00:02:47.469 --> 00:02:50.150
that nitty gritty schmitty, we welcome blank
00:02:50.150 --> 00:02:52.909
to provide us with that vital information. That
00:02:52.909 --> 00:02:56.460
is our expert corner. And those are like. People
00:02:56.460 --> 00:02:58.460
who have gone and done some real work to help
00:02:58.460 --> 00:03:00.539
us out on the pod to give you guys even better,
00:03:00.580 --> 00:03:03.400
further context and analysis of these characters
00:03:03.400 --> 00:03:06.800
and of this show. Sierra, go ahead and read.
00:03:06.840 --> 00:03:09.860
What is this next category? The next category,
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:13.199
find your donut holes. It's time for our knives
00:03:13.199 --> 00:03:16.020
out category, where we sleuth out which three
00:03:16.020 --> 00:03:18.419
storylines are the most vital to pay attention
00:03:18.419 --> 00:03:21.159
to. Yeah, and listeners, you'll have to sleuth
00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:23.650
out. How many times do we say sleuth? Versus
00:03:23.650 --> 00:03:33.550
Sooth. Sooth. Sus. Scooth. Skeeth. Yep. We may
00:03:33.550 --> 00:03:35.389
have said a bunch of different versions of this
00:03:35.389 --> 00:03:40.050
by the time you've listened in. So, Knives Out,
00:03:40.110 --> 00:03:42.770
of course, is the Daniel Craig mystery detective
00:03:42.770 --> 00:03:46.310
movies that have been really fun to come out.
00:03:46.349 --> 00:03:49.849
The third is out, possibly, by the time you listen
00:03:49.849 --> 00:03:52.069
to this. It's about to be out as we're recording.
00:03:53.130 --> 00:03:56.169
And this is about us identifying, over the course
00:03:56.169 --> 00:03:57.870
of all the episodes that we are talking about,
00:03:57.909 --> 00:03:59.750
what are the actual three storylines that are
00:03:59.750 --> 00:04:03.030
important to pay attention to, and why. So we'll
00:04:03.030 --> 00:04:05.810
be detailing all of that. Following that category
00:04:05.810 --> 00:04:08.610
is, keep your finger on the pause button and
00:04:08.610 --> 00:04:11.889
rewind that tape, it's the Prestige category.
00:04:12.349 --> 00:04:15.229
What did we notice on this watch through? The
00:04:15.229 --> 00:04:18.870
Prestige is a Christian Bale, Hugh Jackman movie
00:04:18.870 --> 00:04:23.680
that Sierra absolutely idolizes. I love it so
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:29.180
much. It was really impactful for me. And I absolutely
00:04:29.180 --> 00:04:32.439
adore this movie. It's fantastic. And it's also
00:04:32.439 --> 00:04:36.459
entirely different on a second rewatch. Exactly.
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:39.139
Because it's one of those big, huge twist movies.
00:04:40.579 --> 00:04:47.199
It is very, very interesting to go back and rewatch
00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:52.519
this movie. This is a category to really draw
00:04:52.519 --> 00:04:54.899
attention to the things that you may have missed
00:04:54.899 --> 00:04:57.319
on the first time that you watched it. And then
00:04:57.319 --> 00:05:01.240
going back with more information, fresh eyes,
00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:04.819
what potentially could you pick out that you
00:05:04.819 --> 00:05:07.899
didn't see before? Yeah. So one of the big things
00:05:07.899 --> 00:05:10.259
that we'll talk about is there is a part in one
00:05:10.259 --> 00:05:12.319
of the seasons before we ever know anything about
00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:16.079
Vecna where Vecna's clock chimes. And you're
00:05:16.079 --> 00:05:19.050
just like. Now, having heard that sound and know
00:05:19.050 --> 00:05:22.310
what that means, it's kind of mind -blowing when
00:05:22.310 --> 00:05:25.470
it happens in the television show. So that's
00:05:25.470 --> 00:05:28.889
what that category is for. Next one. You know,
00:05:29.009 --> 00:05:31.709
you don't always have to face down a horde of
00:05:31.709 --> 00:05:35.670
angry soldiers by yourself. Buckle up, Schmisseners.
00:05:35.730 --> 00:05:38.750
It's our Sansa is smarter than John category.
00:05:39.250 --> 00:05:42.649
What is this, Sierra? What is the most important
00:05:42.649 --> 00:05:46.230
character moment? It's... From Game of Thrones.
00:05:46.350 --> 00:05:49.550
Yes. In case you didn't get it, from Sansa and
00:05:49.550 --> 00:05:52.370
Jon, there's people who haven't seen Game of
00:05:52.370 --> 00:05:56.470
Thrones. That's true. It's possible. It is possible
00:05:56.470 --> 00:05:58.329
you didn't recognize those names, but that's
00:05:58.329 --> 00:06:02.569
what it's from. So the reason why we named it
00:06:02.569 --> 00:06:06.449
as such is because there's this whole arc later
00:06:06.449 --> 00:06:08.490
on in Game of Thrones, which this is a spoiler
00:06:08.490 --> 00:06:10.290
for Game of Thrones, so if you were watching
00:06:10.290 --> 00:06:12.750
it, I guess tune us out for like 30 seconds.
00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:17.639
So Jon is up in the north, finally kind of free
00:06:17.639 --> 00:06:20.480
of his Nightwatch stuff, and he's with Sansa
00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:22.639
trying to defend Winterfell, and there's a huge
00:06:22.639 --> 00:06:25.180
hold of angry soldiers coming his way, and he's
00:06:25.180 --> 00:06:28.480
like, oh, tough it out. I got this. Hold my beer,
00:06:28.579 --> 00:06:30.920
Sansa. And Sansa just, like, sidesteps his beer
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:34.160
and lets it fall, and she instead goes and is
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:36.800
political and gets a whole army to come and rescue
00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:42.300
him. So, but that's a hugely important character
00:06:42.300 --> 00:06:45.180
moment. for Sansa. It's this moment of sort of
00:06:45.180 --> 00:06:48.959
full realization of her character, from dainty
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:51.360
little pretty thing that's only there to be married
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:54.899
off, to I have survived through some of the worst
00:06:54.899 --> 00:06:57.740
horrors that this world has to offer, and I'm
00:06:57.740 --> 00:07:01.360
stronger and better and smarter than all of you
00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:03.480
around me. So that's why when we're talking about
00:07:03.480 --> 00:07:05.399
the most important character moment in these
00:07:05.399 --> 00:07:08.019
episodes, why we've named it sort of after Sansa.
00:07:08.300 --> 00:07:12.060
The next is, I know you just lost a hand, but
00:07:12.060 --> 00:07:16.709
listen up. It's the I am your father category
00:07:16.709 --> 00:07:20.670
for most iconic character moment. Iconic character
00:07:20.670 --> 00:07:24.290
moment, meaning this moment is huge for this
00:07:24.290 --> 00:07:27.050
character, whether the fandom loves it or whether
00:07:27.050 --> 00:07:29.589
the show really sells it or anything of that
00:07:29.589 --> 00:07:33.310
nature. So you think about Darth Vader extending
00:07:33.310 --> 00:07:36.509
and being like, I am your father. It's a huge.
00:07:37.050 --> 00:07:39.550
giant character moment both for luke and for
00:07:39.550 --> 00:07:42.930
vader right it's incredibly revealing but a fandom
00:07:42.930 --> 00:07:45.389
we separated it out from important character
00:07:45.389 --> 00:07:47.870
moment because sometimes there's there's just
00:07:47.870 --> 00:07:52.129
a really really fun awesome not that important
00:07:52.129 --> 00:07:55.990
moment that fandoms just absolutely adore that
00:07:55.990 --> 00:07:57.649
has nothing to do with like an importance to
00:07:57.649 --> 00:08:01.490
the storyline exactly yeah something that is
00:08:01.490 --> 00:08:07.759
potentially more Or when you think about this
00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:11.040
series or you think about this season, this is
00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:13.300
what you think of. And it doesn't necessarily
00:08:13.300 --> 00:08:16.459
have to have anything to do with the main plot
00:08:16.459 --> 00:08:21.740
or to be the most impactful, but it's iconic.
00:08:21.939 --> 00:08:25.519
Yeah, iconic. Which leads us to the next one.
00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:30.500
Everybody sit down. It's time for our I am Iron
00:08:30.500 --> 00:08:35.019
Man, which is most iconic. And most important
00:08:35.019 --> 00:08:40.200
scene category. This, if you didn't get it, is
00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:45.340
from Iron Man. Yeah, a scene that is both the
00:08:45.340 --> 00:08:48.159
most important and the most iconic. And the most
00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:51.879
iconic. Because not only is this scene, like,
00:08:51.879 --> 00:08:55.679
extremely quoted and referenced by its own material
00:08:55.679 --> 00:08:58.720
for the ultimate moment of that series of MCU
00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:02.120
movies. It's also extremely important for both
00:09:02.120 --> 00:09:05.200
real -life versions. Robert Downey Jr. ad -libs
00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:06.960
that line, they keep it, and it becomes this
00:09:06.960 --> 00:09:09.659
huge, amazing ending that everybody loves and
00:09:09.659 --> 00:09:13.100
skyrockets this movie, creating the MCU single
00:09:13.100 --> 00:09:16.919
-handedly. And it is also important in the movie
00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:21.259
because it drives home Tony's whole message that
00:09:21.259 --> 00:09:24.360
it's actually me, not some random vigilante that's
00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:28.620
doing this. I have changed my heart. Huge, huge,
00:09:28.620 --> 00:09:32.480
huge. So in this, we'll be grabbing what we think
00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:34.340
is both the most iconic and the most important
00:09:34.340 --> 00:09:37.179
scenes, which usually, for moments, you can get
00:09:37.179 --> 00:09:38.620
away with splitting them, but for scenes, they
00:09:38.620 --> 00:09:41.259
almost always coincide. So we may have honorable
00:09:41.259 --> 00:09:42.879
mentions or stuff like that, but there's almost
00:09:42.879 --> 00:09:45.759
always one exactly that you can pick. Crack open
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:48.759
in the encyclopedia, Sierra, as Elijah Wood once
00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:52.139
said, no, how could we have known? This is where
00:09:52.139 --> 00:09:54.399
we discuss the most important information disseminated
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:57.879
to the fandom over these blank amount of episodes,
00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:02.330
right? This is a pretty deep pull. It's a very
00:10:02.330 --> 00:10:06.690
famous tweet from Elijah Wood, if you are deep
00:10:06.690 --> 00:10:08.710
in fandom as Sierra and I are. But there's this
00:10:08.710 --> 00:10:13.610
awesome tweet where Rise of Skywalker was about
00:10:13.610 --> 00:10:16.909
to release on Disney Plus or something, and Star
00:10:16.909 --> 00:10:20.710
Wars Holocron released as a tweet this information
00:10:20.710 --> 00:10:23.590
that it was like, Did you know that the planet
00:10:23.590 --> 00:10:26.110
of Exegol was formed with Sith worshippers who
00:10:26.110 --> 00:10:27.970
were creating the Forsterter fleet the whole
00:10:27.970 --> 00:10:30.570
time? And it's just like, if you've seen Rise
00:10:30.570 --> 00:10:33.629
of Skywalker, spoilers for this, but this fleet
00:10:33.629 --> 00:10:35.490
and Palpatine just kind of come out of nowhere
00:10:35.490 --> 00:10:38.470
with no world building, no lord building. They
00:10:38.470 --> 00:10:42.970
just kind of drop Palpatine and the fact that
00:10:42.970 --> 00:10:45.090
now all Star Destroyers are also Death Stars.
00:10:45.450 --> 00:10:48.950
They just can't keep getting away from planet
00:10:48.950 --> 00:10:53.850
-killing technology. And it's just really frustrating.
00:10:53.990 --> 00:10:56.070
But then... The Star Wars Holocron goes and drops
00:10:56.070 --> 00:10:58.629
this information. Which is like, no, of course
00:10:58.629 --> 00:11:01.570
nobody knows. And Elijah Wood, Frodo Baggins
00:11:01.570 --> 00:11:05.490
of all people, goes, no. He, like, re -quotes
00:11:05.490 --> 00:11:09.029
the tweet. And then above it says, no. How could
00:11:09.029 --> 00:11:14.600
we have known? So, um. I will use this in whatever
00:11:14.600 --> 00:11:17.080
context possible, and I thought it had to be
00:11:17.080 --> 00:11:21.059
a category, where we are discussing sort of what
00:11:21.059 --> 00:11:23.399
is the most important information to the fandom
00:11:23.399 --> 00:11:26.320
in this series of episodes. Later on, we have
00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:29.559
big takeaways, and this is kind of a precursor
00:11:29.559 --> 00:11:31.879
into big takeaways. So not everything is a big
00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:33.679
takeaway, but there might be little pieces of
00:11:33.679 --> 00:11:37.799
information, like how physics works, or how somebody's
00:11:37.799 --> 00:11:40.279
powers may have adjusted or are different from
00:11:40.279 --> 00:11:43.360
one another. So that's where that information
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:47.960
belongs. Keep your horses safe. It's the I'm
00:11:47.960 --> 00:11:51.159
gonna make him an offer he can't refuse category
00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:54.639
for best lines. Super self -explanatory. The
00:11:54.639 --> 00:11:58.120
Godfather. Yeah. Yes. It's pretty self -explanatory.
00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:01.500
The line I'm gonna make him an offer he can't
00:12:01.500 --> 00:12:05.200
refuse is the best line in the movie. In all
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:08.279
three movies. In all three movies. It's definitely
00:12:08.279 --> 00:12:12.129
the most quoted. Yes, if you would like to argue,
00:12:12.289 --> 00:12:15.970
please drop your Godfather lore in the comments.
00:12:15.970 --> 00:12:18.889
In the comments, yeah. And we can discuss if
00:12:18.889 --> 00:12:22.429
you think that there's a better one. I will be
00:12:22.429 --> 00:12:26.769
hard -pressed to agree with you, but please challenge
00:12:26.769 --> 00:12:32.570
me on that one. Yeah, certainly. Dust off that
00:12:32.570 --> 00:12:35.289
card deck and get ready to shuffle. It's our
00:12:35.289 --> 00:12:40.399
Joker category for who is the MVP. Of this episode,
00:12:40.580 --> 00:12:42.419
story arc, movie, whatever it is that we're doing.
00:12:43.460 --> 00:12:46.159
This is a Dark Knight reference, the second of
00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:48.159
the Christopher Nolan Batman movies, where Heath
00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:54.919
Ledger, RIP, plays the Joker. And the Joker is
00:12:54.919 --> 00:12:58.759
the MVP. He's the most valuable player in that
00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:03.240
movie. By far. The movie's great. And the first
00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:06.480
Batman Begins movie... Incredible. It's a great
00:13:06.480 --> 00:13:09.080
movie. Liam Neeson's in it as a villain. He's
00:13:09.080 --> 00:13:12.799
awesome. But nothing quite drives Dark Knight
00:13:12.799 --> 00:13:16.120
into the stratosphere of one of the best movies
00:13:16.120 --> 00:13:20.440
ever made than Heath Ledger's Joker. Both the
00:13:20.440 --> 00:13:22.960
writing for it and his acting. So when we're
00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:25.399
picking MVPs, we've named it after the Joker
00:13:25.399 --> 00:13:30.860
because of how clear of an impact that character
00:13:30.860 --> 00:13:35.600
has on that movie. Exactly. This last category
00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:43.480
is really just for Sam and I. Clean your evil
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:48.860
lair and get ready for our I was the turkey all
00:13:48.860 --> 00:13:54.960
along category. What is the biggest takeaway
00:13:54.960 --> 00:13:58.139
viewers should leave with in preparation for
00:13:58.139 --> 00:14:04.019
whatever we are preparing you for? This is an
00:14:04.019 --> 00:14:10.580
invader zim -hole. Yes, it is! This is something
00:14:10.580 --> 00:14:15.700
that Sam and I quoted to each other, sent back
00:14:15.700 --> 00:14:21.159
and forth videos of, would hide in random places
00:14:21.159 --> 00:14:24.600
and pop out and yell to each other. This was
00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:26.879
our, like, never gonna give you up. Constantly.
00:14:27.139 --> 00:14:30.220
To each other. Our Rickrolls or whatever it is.
00:14:30.519 --> 00:14:35.039
Yes, Rickrolls. This was our Rickroll for years.
00:14:37.019 --> 00:14:41.080
So it's a moment where Invader Zim, who's this
00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:42.639
little alien that's trying to infiltrate Earth,
00:14:42.720 --> 00:14:44.679
owns this house in a neighborhood and in the
00:14:44.679 --> 00:14:47.519
basement is his evil lair. And he goes down and
00:14:47.519 --> 00:14:51.220
there's this Thanksgiving turkey just down there.
00:14:51.839 --> 00:14:55.679
And Invader Zim has this little side companion
00:14:55.679 --> 00:14:58.080
named Gur, which stands for garbage and robot.
00:14:58.279 --> 00:15:01.200
It's like a malfunctioned robot that the people
00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:03.120
who gave him this mission wanted to fail. And
00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:04.580
Gur doesn't work that well, but Gur is hilarious.
00:15:05.360 --> 00:15:07.940
And so Zim just sort of looks over at this turkey
00:15:07.940 --> 00:15:10.940
and ignores it. And then the turkey explodes
00:15:10.940 --> 00:15:14.000
and it goes everywhere. And Gur goes like, ta
00:15:14.000 --> 00:15:16.919
-da! And Zim just ignores him. And he goes, oh,
00:15:17.000 --> 00:15:19.340
there you are, Gur. And then he keeps talking
00:15:19.340 --> 00:15:22.580
and Gur goes, it was me! And Zim's like, uh -huh.
00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:28.340
And he goes, it's me! I was the turkey all along!
00:15:29.179 --> 00:15:33.919
And Zim just completely ignores it. But it's
00:15:33.919 --> 00:15:37.639
just like, it's the big realization, right? It's
00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:40.100
the big realization is what we're going for.
00:15:40.200 --> 00:15:42.399
What's the biggest takeaway? Because the biggest
00:15:42.399 --> 00:15:44.539
takeaway in that moment is that Gur was inside
00:15:44.539 --> 00:15:49.330
the turkey all along. I don't know that we're
00:15:49.330 --> 00:15:51.190
very good at this, Sierra. People maybe should
00:15:51.190 --> 00:16:01.289
fire us. I love it. Hey, we've said if you enjoy
00:16:01.289 --> 00:16:05.789
us just a fraction of the amount that we enjoy
00:16:05.789 --> 00:16:10.389
ourselves that we crack ourselves up we're all
00:16:10.389 --> 00:16:16.169
gonna have a good time. Awesome. Today's public
