Bonus Episode: 9-1-1 Mini Series #1

Bonus Episode: 9-1-1 Mini Series #1

Hello #FireFam. We're here to hit you with a surprise, wanted or unwanted. We're starting a mini series about 9-1-1. Yeah, another Ryan Murphy show. Because we're masochists. It even gets it's own podcast cover art. And this is the first episode.

Emily and Alison share how they fell into the 9-1-1 universe (slowly, then all at once for Alison), discuss their favorite characters and storylines, and touch a little on the broader impact of Ryan Murphy's work (that bastard).

So whether you're a long-time viewer or you're new the series in Season 8 because you heard something might be going down, welcome. We're all family in this house. Just keep it off the streets, okay?

"It feels like every couple of years, Ryan Murphy comes up with a new show to ruin me."

1
00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:11,360
You're listening to fandom on
the rocks.

2
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:15,480
Hello, welcome to phantom on the
rocks.

3
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:22,360
You have found us for a new
bonus episode miniseries about

4
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:28,240
the hit Ryan Murphy Show 911.
I'm Emily.

5
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,440
And I'm Allison.
And we are dragging you down

6
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:33,440
into the depths of our depravity
with us.

7
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:37,400
I'm I pitched to Emily that this
series should just be called

8
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:41,800
Ryan Murphy on the rocks because
it feels like every couple of

9
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,320
years Ryan Murphy comes up with
a new show to ruin me.

10
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,720
And whether that's, you know,
ruining my life specifically or

11
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,760
just ruining fandoms life at
large, I don't know.

12
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,760
But it does have one common
theme, and that common theme is

13
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,680
Ryan Murphy.
You're not wrong, I just don't

14
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:00,520
want to give him that much
power.

15
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,360
I've given him power.
I've given him that much power.

16
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,760
I've been involved in Ryan
Murphy fandom for like 10. 15.

17
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:11,200
Years now.
I know, I know, it starts well.

18
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,880
I mean, I watched some of Nip
Tuck, but like, not really.

19
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,480
So I mean, I guess Glee was the
real money.

20
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,920
Yeah, Glee was the big money.
Yeah, and, and to be

21
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:26,800
transparent, while I'm watching
911, I am also watching Doctor

22
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:28,520
Odyssey.
I.

23
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,160
You don't have to watch it.
Don't do it.

24
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,240
It's not good.
No, it's not.

25
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,800
But you want to give me a, you
want to give me an OT three.

26
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,360
You want to give me a threesome
right there on my TV screen,

27
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:39,720
I'll take it.
I'll throw.

28
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,800
I'm so mad about it.
OK sidebar on the sidebar.

29
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,280
They did it.
They did the thing on screen and

30
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,920
then immediately gave it a
pregnancy plot.

31
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:53,000
No.
I know immediately they kiboshed

32
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,520
the OT 3 and gave it a
pregnancy.

33
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,040
Who's the daddy?
And I was like oh gross.

34
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,600
That is a season 8 problem.
That is not the.

35
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,720
Daddy, both of them.
Both of them, there's twins and

36
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:05,720
they're both the daddy.
They're both the daddy.

37
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,039
I agree.
Like, there's gonna be twins and

38
00:02:09,039 --> 00:02:12,280
they're both a daddy and then
they she miscarries and doesn't

39
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:13,920
have to give up her dreams of
being a doctor.

40
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:16,640
Like, how does this go?
We know how it goes because you

41
00:02:16,640 --> 00:02:19,240
cannot have her pregnant in the
first season.

42
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,720
That is garbage storytelling.
So.

43
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,000
Bad I I just.
Yeah, yeah.

44
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,760
That's A season 8 problem.
That is not a season.

45
00:02:27,920 --> 00:02:30,280
That's not a mid season one
problem.

46
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,080
No, that's a We've all been
dancing around each other for,

47
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,840
you know, five years and all of
a sudden you're finally

48
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,640
pregnant.
Are we gonna be a real family?

49
00:02:39,640 --> 00:02:42,400
Are we all gonna come together?
Is it finally time?

50
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,120
Or like, we've run out of things
to do on this ship.

51
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,640
Uh oh.
Pregnant 'cause it's it's a

52
00:02:48,640 --> 00:02:51,720
telenovela, right?
Like more so than 911?

53
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:56,160
Which is such a telenovela.
Yeah, OK, so back to 911, 'cause

54
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,920
that's what we're here to talk
about because I've been watching

55
00:02:58,920 --> 00:03:03,280
it since the beginning.
Allison resisted.

56
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,520
I have not.
We can tell that story, So,

57
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,800
yeah.
I was watching, I was not really

58
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,680
involved in the fandom because
I've been in enough fandoms.

59
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:17,440
I just wanted to watch a TV show
and not play in the sandbox and

60
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:21,440
just have something to enjoy.
Except, you know, season 2 rolls

61
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:26,320
around and they bring on Ryan
Guzman as Eddie Diaz and oh

62
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,960
look, a ship is born in mere
seconds and now what are you

63
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:31,800
supposed to do about it?
What are you going to do about

64
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:32,840
that?
So.

65
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,560
So.
And here we are.

66
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,160
And here we are.
I mean, I know it's season 8 and

67
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,640
only now are we talking about
it, but that's because this

68
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,760
podcast has been about 19 other
things and like, why make it

69
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:50,000
messier with another Ryan Murphy
Brad Falchuk fuckfest?

70
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,760
I do believe I also saw Joaquin
Sedillo in the credits.

71
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:58,800
He OK?
Yes motherfucker, he was the DP

72
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,640
for the first seven seasons.
He is not the DP for the 8th

73
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,520
season.
And as much as we love Joaquin,

74
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,000
the the cinematography for the
8th season is.

75
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,480
Better.
It's really good.

76
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,360
It's so good.
And like, we love us, Joaquin.

77
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,160
It did the job for the first
seven seasons.

78
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,320
It was a look, it was a style,
it was a thing.

79
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,839
And also we pay reverence.
To we pay reverence to Joaquin,

80
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,160
he is plain king king shit
Joaquin.

81
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,920
If you ever want to come talk to
us, we would love to pick your

82
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,920
brain.
Oh my gosh, I just want to sit

83
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,080
at your plain.
I want to sit at your feet and

84
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,160
feed you pie and thank you for
everything you've ever given us.

85
00:04:34,280 --> 00:04:38,480
Yes, you were there for us in
Glee and we.

86
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,040
In our time with need.
But there's something about the

87
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,960
cinematography in Season 8.
I don't know if it's different

88
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:48,760
directors, if a budget change
happened, if there was a mandate

89
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:57,720
to do more, to make it more, to
change the style, basically.

90
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,920
But there are shots in Season 8
where you're like, that is a

91
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:02,360
movie.
Yeah.

92
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:08,320
Like it's just different.
So RIP Joaquin, we would love to

93
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:09,480
talk to you.
We want to talk to you about

94
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:10,600
Glee.
Like, Oh yeah.

95
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,640
But yes, he gave us seven
seasons of 911 and we are

96
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,560
forever grateful to the Holy
Ghost.

97
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,120
So.
Indeed.

98
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,880
But I don't know.
So we're just here to talk about

99
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:25,160
911 because Emily finally
succeeded in dragging me in.

100
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,840
And the thing you need to know
about me is that I am an

101
00:05:27,840 --> 00:05:33,080
incredibly anxious bird, right?
I have been dealing with big,

102
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,880
big feelings in my little bitty
brain for most of my life.

103
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:41,120
And I try really hard,
especially in the days now that

104
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,920
we are medicated and going back
to the baseline of not trying to

105
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,560
stress myself out too much,
right?

106
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,520
I'm trying because my brain
stresses me out enough.

107
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,560
And so one of my cardinal rules
is to not get involved with TV

108
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,680
that's still going.
I watched my mother fall in love

109
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,960
with Lost.
I watched her fall in love with

110
00:05:59,960 --> 00:06:02,080
The Walking Dead.
I watched her fall in love with

111
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:06,040
Justified and The West Wing.
And they all broke her heart

112
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,880
every single time.
And I was like, you know what?

113
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,000
I can't really control my love
life because boys are dumb, but

114
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,040
I can't control my TV watching
habits.

115
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,880
And so I don't want to get into
shows that aren't finished.

116
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,160
And for a long time, I've been
able to do that.

117
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,880
And something happened a couple
of weeks ago and I finally

118
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,680
cracked.
I think it may have been the

119
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:31,840
Eddie Diaz Pink Pony Club risky
Business scenario that finally

120
00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:35,880
leaked onto my Tumblr dashboard.
And all of a sudden I was like,

121
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,680
well, all right, we're eight
seasons in.

122
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,920
It's going to be done anyway.
Like, let me just start.

123
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,320
I'm here now.
I'm I'm here.

124
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:47,280
I'm here and I am in pain
because I have now officially

125
00:06:47,280 --> 00:06:49,360
started and have fallen in love
with ATV.

126
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:54,080
Show that isn't finished you.
Have doe dived?

127
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,040
I always forget that dove is not
a real word.

128
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:02,480
You have dived in so fast.
Oh my gosh, it's been like that

129
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,240
thing that happens to divers
when you go, when you sink too

130
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,280
quickly and you doesn't have
enough oxygen.

131
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,480
Yeah, yes, you're going to
experience the bends coming up.

132
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:14,800
You know what?
It would not surprise me.

133
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:20,720
Yeah, Yeah.
So the this these are going to

134
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:25,720
be a series of bonus episodes.
It's not going to be 911 on the

135
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,600
rocks simply because we do not
have the time.

136
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,280
We have jobs.
You have a life.

137
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:35,120
I don't.
OK, I'm correcting her to say

138
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,960
it's not 911 of the rocks yet.
It's yes, fair.

139
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,200
It's not 911 on the rocks yet.
So.

140
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,280
Because we have to finish Glee
before I fucking die.

141
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:48,000
We do have to finish Glee and we
just, we just wrapped up Season

142
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,280
3B of Pack Dynamics.
That's it.

143
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:52,720
That's recorded.
It's recorded.

144
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,280
It's in the can.
So we have seasons 4-5 and six

145
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,040
of Teen Wolf left to go still.
Plus the movie.

146
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,000
Oh my God, we have to watch the
movie.

147
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,600
But that's only one episode.
That's it.

148
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:02,680
That's.
Only one episode, but then we're

149
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,480
done.
And so we still have a lot of

150
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,320
content to go before we get to
911 of the Rocks.

151
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:12,400
But depending on how many
feelings and thoughts and stuff

152
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:16,840
we manifest over the next like
hour or so, we it may be on the

153
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:18,200
IT may be on the agenda,
frankly.

154
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:23,720
Yes, So yes, and and the first
seasons of 911 are short.

155
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,040
You know, there are 1012
episodes, so that does go

156
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,760
faster.
But yeah, we, I know that we are

157
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,679
so behind on Glee and we
apologize.

158
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,080
It's just that you know, some of
those episodes are bad and it's

159
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:41,880
hard to get through when you
have newer loves in your life.

160
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,800
Better TV, Better TV to watch?
OK, better.

161
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:46,840
Different.
Different TV.

162
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,360
Different TV.
Is 911 better?

163
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:49,880
I don't yes.
I don't know why it is.

164
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,320
Well, it is better because it
doesn't hurt as much yet.

165
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:57,400
Yet yes, we.
So for those of you who are just

166
00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:02,480
tuning in the timeline as we see
it right now, we have just

167
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,840
finished the mid season season 8
finale.

168
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:11,360
So we have just closed out 8A
and we will be back in I think

169
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,640
four months with 8B.
Which is OK.

170
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,520
And there are scheduled 18
episodes of season 8 of 911.

171
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,720
So it's this is they're not
equal haves and they're not

172
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,520
really defining them as 8A and
8B, right?

173
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,120
So this is a this is a winter
finale, which is like a new

174
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,040
phenomenon.
It's not quite mid season, but

175
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,640
almost.
Yeah, it's a whole thing about

176
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,800
like ratings versus the holidays
and when are people watching And

177
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,480
like, it's a whole thing of
because sweeps don't really

178
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,240
happen anymore, right?
I kind of wish they did because

179
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:50,280
like networks really pulled out
the big cliffhangers for sweeps.

180
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,000
I'm sorry, are you saying that
the that what happened at the

181
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:55,720
end of 88 wasn't a big
cliffhanger?

182
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,160
Are you saying that like a
bigger board hanger?

183
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,040
Eddie Diaz making life caltering
decisions is like.

184
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,600
So a bigger cliffhanger would be
the next episode of 911.

185
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,520
For sure which they preach.
Which they.

186
00:10:09,560 --> 00:10:14,520
Yeah, which they previewed and.
With my third born daughter,

187
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,360
Maddie Buckley.
Yeah, we'll get to her.

188
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,360
Well, we probably won't get to
her because this is like an

189
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,600
intro to the what this is going
to be and what this is going to

190
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,960
be is just talking about the
show.

191
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,400
We're not going to talk about
every episode until we get to

192
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:29,960
9111.
The Rocks.

193
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,200
Which we, yeah, Emily and I have
very little self-control when it

194
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,760
comes to this so.
Listen, if I didn't have a full

195
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,480
time job, this is what I would
be doing.

196
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,920
Dude I don't have a full time
job, this is what I do.

197
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,440
I know, writing a fic finally
after like a decade.

198
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,360
Yeah, so am I It's been a it's
been a journey.

199
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:47,440
I apologize.
It's.

200
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:53,120
All her fault.
So the plan is, you know, topics

201
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,400
that we want to discuss, that is
a lame essence.

202
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:58,120
We're going to talk about the
show, We're going to talk about

203
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,560
the ships, we're going to talk
about the characters and the

204
00:11:00,560 --> 00:11:03,920
Ryan Murphy of it all.
Because it is so obvious that

205
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,840
this is a Ryan Murphy show.
Even though given that it's

206
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:10,200
season 8, Ryan Murphy's hands,
his little raccoon hands are

207
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,960
probably miles away by now
because that man can't stay

208
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,200
invested in a show past season
like 3.

209
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,360
Yeah, he gets really good ideas,
but then he gets bored.

210
00:11:19,680 --> 00:11:23,440
He gets bored, he moves on.
Clearly he's on to Doctor

211
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,240
Odyssey, but it's still Ryan
Murphy.

212
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,040
He's still there.
It's in the DNA of it.

213
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:35,920
Tim Minir, who's a long time
collaborator of Murphy Murphy.

214
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,040
All I had with Doctor Odyssey in
my head of Murphy is the

215
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:44,520
showrunner and creator,
executive creator.

216
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,640
Yeah, every, every credit we get
Brad Falchuk and Ryan Murphy.

217
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:50,680
And I'm like, oh, it's the Glee
cast, OK.

218
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:55,280
Yes, and they were also the
creators, executive producers of

219
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,960
the 911 spinoff.
Lone Star.

220
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:02,040
Lone Star and they are
apparently creating a Lone

221
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,280
Star's been cancelled.
They are apparently creating a

222
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:08,440
third spinoff whose location is
TBD.

223
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,320
The rumors were Las Vegas or
Hawaii.

224
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:12,920
I think those are garbage
choices.

225
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,920
I think it needs to be a small
town in a cold setting.

226
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:22,280
Give me give me like 911.
Yeah, or 911 Twin Peaks, and

227
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:26,600
you've got an X-Files crossover.
Outstanding. 911 Scranton Like

228
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,760
somewhere cold so that you get
cars falling through the ice,

229
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,720
you get frostbite, you get
avalanches, you get like a 22

230
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:37,000
car pile up because someone
couldn't handle black ice on a

231
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,800
hill.
You get buses sliding down and

232
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,400
going over overpasses like.
Would be new and exciting bad

233
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,520
things to happen.
Yes, exactly.

234
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,240
Because Las Vegas, it's going to
be high rises falling over, it's

235
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,960
going to be drought, it's going
to be fires and people getting

236
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:52,920
their hands stuck in slot
machines like.

237
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,760
And then Hawaii is going to be,
you know, ocean stuff.

238
00:12:56,160 --> 00:13:00,680
Oceans and fires like I got like
they're going to be hot and

239
00:13:00,680 --> 00:13:02,480
lava.
But there's good there's.

240
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,600
Lava in in the show, like I got
it.

241
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,520
Yeah.
Anyway, so today we are going to

242
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:13,560
be doing like the the preview
today is the the intro page of

243
00:13:13,560 --> 00:13:16,560
the podcast.
I am going to ask Allison a few

244
00:13:16,560 --> 00:13:18,200
questions.
We are probably going to talk

245
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:22,360
over each other and try to keep
it together.

246
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,720
As best as she and I can keep it
together, If you're here, you've

247
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,600
probably heard us talk before.
Yeah.

248
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,040
If you haven't heard us talk
before, let me direct you to the

249
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:38,960
like slew of articles directly
beneath this podcast to listen

250
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,360
to our shenanigans.
If the algorithm, are there

251
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,920
algorithms on Spotify and Apple
podcast?

252
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,840
I don't know if the algorithm
somehow brought you to us and

253
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:51,000
you've never heard us talk
before, so sorry.

254
00:13:51,560 --> 00:13:53,200
We love you.
Thank you for being here.

255
00:13:53,680 --> 00:13:56,880
This is how we talk.
If we love a show, we talk shit

256
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,520
about it because if we love it,
we want it to be better.

257
00:13:59,960 --> 00:14:01,760
And we want to participate I.
Want to?

258
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,520
Participate I am a Not that this
is relevant at all, but I'm a

259
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:07,840
big pro wrestling person.
I love pro wrestling.

260
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,560
I'm what they call a mark.
I fall for it hook, line and

261
00:14:10,560 --> 00:14:12,720
sinker every time.
I'm here for the drama of it

262
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,000
all.
And one of the things they talk

263
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,240
about is something called heat,
which is the noise that an

264
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,600
audience will make when a
character on like in the Ring

265
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,120
will do something.
So whether they get cheered or

266
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,080
whether they get booed or
whether they, you know, as as

267
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,280
long as you're making noise, you
can have good heat or bad heat,

268
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,400
but as long as you're getting
the audience to interact and

269
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,440
participate, it's good.
OK, That's.

270
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,840
My theory of fanfic.
Like the thing that you don't

271
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,080
want is for them to like present
a thing, like a match in the

272
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,840
ring or a promo or some
something and the audience is

273
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,000
just dead.
It's just crickets, 'cause it

274
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,600
means they don't care.
They're not invested in the art

275
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,320
that you've made.
And so whether we love it or

276
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,280
hate it, you want to feel strong
feelings.

277
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,240
It's the ambivalence that kills
you.

278
00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,520
It is.
And so we will shout and scream

279
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:04,760
about things that we adore.
Apparently my third and 4th born

280
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:08,440
sons manifest in this TV show.
They do.

281
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:12,400
They do, and then the things
that we hate because there are

282
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,880
some choices that they've made
that are dumb as hell, but it's

283
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:17,600
about being engaged and
involved.

284
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,520
If there's something that you're
passionate about, it means that

285
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,880
the circle continues, the
transformative circle, the works

286
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:28,400
that come out, the interactions,
the passion stays around and

287
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,520
that's what's important.
That's what we're excited about

288
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:31,920
and excited to share.
Yes.

289
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:36,360
And, and that coincides with my
theory of fanfic, where if the

290
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:40,120
show is like perfect, you're not
going to write about it because

291
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:41,800
it's done, it's complete, it's
whole.

292
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,200
There's no reason to continue
your interaction with it.

293
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,280
Right you.
Have to if it has, if it has

294
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:51,960
flaws, you're filling the gap.
So the fact that there is oodles

295
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:56,360
of fanfic around 911, it means
we're invested because you want

296
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,400
to fill the gap.
We want to fill the gap and

297
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,880
whether or not it's, you know, a
permanent gap or an on purpose

298
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,600
gap is we're finding gaps.
One of the things that I love

299
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:10,440
best about the 911 fandom is
that it is weekly television, as

300
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,000
opposed to something like The
Umbrella Academy, which takes 8

301
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,960
episodes and just dumps them in
your lap.

302
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:19,320
You're not quite as 'cause you
get all the gaps filled and then

303
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,640
you can kind of go back and fill
some gaps or whatever.

304
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:25,560
But like these writers and these
givers and these, these, these

305
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,600
vidders, there's so many AVS
going out, it's incredible.

306
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,920
But they are getting little bits
of story every week and they're

307
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,480
being inspired to like what's
next?

308
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,560
How do you fill those gaps?
How does this, what happened in

309
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:41,080
this episode, fill the gaps from
4 episodes ago?

310
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,200
And it doesn't matter whether or
not they're right.

311
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,440
You know, it doesn't matter
whether or not anything happened

312
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:50,400
after the Risky Business Pink
Pony Club moment.

313
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:54,480
It doesn't matter because in
that moment we could fill it

314
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,320
with whatever we wanted.
Yeah, and as long as the rest of

315
00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:01,040
the fandom isn't being like, no.
Yeah, well, that's about fandom

316
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,440
behavior, and we'll do a whole
other podcast on that.

317
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,599
Just don't.
Just don't be weird, guys.

318
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,240
Don't be weird.
Keep it in your living room,

319
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:08,560
keep your group chats.
Don't be weird.

320
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,920
Freaking stop it.
Keep it off the streets.

321
00:17:12,079 --> 00:17:14,839
Keep it off the streets, keep it
off the streets, keep it off the

322
00:17:14,839 --> 00:17:18,319
streets.
But I have gained so much

323
00:17:18,319 --> 00:17:20,839
respect for so many people in
this fandom and just the

324
00:17:20,839 --> 00:17:24,359
creative power and process
that's coming out of it, and so

325
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,079
much of that is drawn directly
from the fact that this is

326
00:17:27,079 --> 00:17:28,640
weekly TV.
Yes.

327
00:17:29,360 --> 00:17:31,160
And they understand what a
cliffhanger is, and they

328
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:34,720
understand little sprinkles.
They get the sprinkles.

329
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:39,360
And you get, you know, given
what happens at the end of this

330
00:17:39,360 --> 00:17:45,040
last episode, episode 8, Ouch.
Like the anticipation of a

331
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,680
midwinter break.
You get fandom creations like

332
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:53,200
it's, it sucks that you have to
wait for another episode, but

333
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,600
like you fill the you fill the
time with content.

334
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,360
And like, let me tell you the
number of things that I have

335
00:17:59,360 --> 00:18:01,480
seen about like, I guess it's
our countdown.

336
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,000
It's day 104 until the spring
finale.

337
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,600
Like I'll be paying attention
isn't the I think the I think

338
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,080
the spring premiere is March
6th.

339
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,480
Something like that, yeah.
And I'm paying attention.

340
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,840
I will be ready.
This is the time.

341
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,200
I did this is the time.
Yeah, this is the time you do

342
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,480
fic exchanges and all that kind
of good stuff.

343
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:25,280
Yeah, this is where, you know, I
found fic that was named for a

344
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:27,320
song that I'm deeply inspired
by.

345
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:31,560
And now I want to go and remix
like that song because somebody

346
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,120
else tapped into the same thing
that I was seeing.

347
00:18:34,120 --> 00:18:36,960
And it's a big circle.
And because because it's a big

348
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,160
circle, we're all getting each
other supported and excited

349
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,240
about the things to come.
Yeah.

350
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,000
I love it, I love it.
Is the good?

351
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,480
Is the good shit.
It is the good shit, all right,

352
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:48,840
but you had questions, my
friend.

353
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,040
Yes, and we might have answered
some of them, but the first

354
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,000
question to pose to you is when
did you start watching 911?

355
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:56,960
So when did I start watching on
purpose?

356
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,480
Yeah.
Sure, about two weeks ago.

357
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,280
About two weeks ago, I started
watching on purpose.

358
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:09,400
I think it was because so at the
end of, I think it's 86, I think

359
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:14,680
Eddie Diaz, my, I guess 4th born
son has this Risky Business

360
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,600
moment where he completely
copies the Tom Cruise

361
00:19:19,120 --> 00:19:20,600
choreography from Risky
Business.

362
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,000
And it's just such a sweet fun
moment.

363
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,320
And my timeline exploded.
My timeline has like, or my

364
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:30,440
dashboard has not been
particularly 911 coded, but for

365
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,840
whatever reason on that night,
it just took over.

366
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,520
It completely took over.
And I was like, well, OK, I

367
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:40,120
guess I'm invested now.
And so I started dipping my toes

368
00:19:40,120 --> 00:19:43,560
in.
And then whether or not it was

369
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:48,120
the algorithm or like the Amazon
gods or like whatever, but I saw

370
00:19:48,120 --> 00:19:50,760
911 pop up on my Disney Plus.
Okay.

371
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,240
And I was like, hi, I guess it's
on Disney Plus.

372
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,680
And so I went into season 8
because I wanted to watch the

373
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,400
episode where the pony club
moment came in.

374
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,000
I keep calling it that it's
risky business, but in my heart

375
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:04,360
of hearts, it's Pink Pony Club.
And they have they have season 8

376
00:20:04,360 --> 00:20:06,720
episodes one through 5.
And I was like well okay so I

377
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,040
can't get this one but like I
can try this.

378
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:13,400
And I started with season, I
started with season 8, episode 1

379
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,680
and blazed through season 5 or
season 8.

380
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,280
I blazed through those first
five episodes and within like

381
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,560
half an hour, I was completely
enamored with absolutely every

382
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:26,720
single character that works at
the 118.

383
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:31,000
Absolutely enamored.
I was in love with Cap and and

384
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:36,560
and and Chimney and Hen and Buck
and Eddie and I was just, I, I

385
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,760
was in like, I guess Tommy and
bits and pieces.

386
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,560
I was in source, I was in source
old and I was like, well, OK.

387
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:47,480
And it spiraled from there.
What I have been trying to

388
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:53,560
reconcile is I lived with Emily
in 2018 when this premiered.

389
00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:57,440
And I remember the TV
commercials and if you see the,

390
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:01,960
if you see like the, the trailer
for season 1, it's like Peter

391
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:06,640
Krause who plays Captain Bobby
Nash and Connie Britton, who

392
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,520
plays Maddie Clark, who's the
911 operator.

393
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,760
And so, and the whole preview is
just picking up the phone 911,

394
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,320
what's your emergency?
And people like screaming for

395
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:20,120
help on the other side.
And my at the time, unmitigated,

396
00:21:20,120 --> 00:21:24,200
uncontrolled, unmedicated
anxiety was like, absolutely

397
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:25,360
not.
No, thank you.

398
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:30,280
I can't handle this.
And so as I go back through now,

399
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:34,520
I'm halfway through season 2 in
my in my first watch through,

400
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,480
some of the scenes and scenarios
look familiar.

401
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,480
And I'm like, oh, I guess I was
in the living room when Emily

402
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,360
was watching this back in
2018-2019.

403
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,800
Oh.
I mean, to be fair, I watched a

404
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:49,040
lot of stuff just like on my
laptop in my room.

405
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:51,760
Yes.
You didn't look to like scar me

406
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,600
or anything, but like every once
in a while there was something

407
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:59,360
upstairs and I was like, Oh
yeah, I remember this happening

408
00:21:59,360 --> 00:22:04,040
when it was happening live, but
it's been going on for what is

409
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:07,040
that six years now?
Yeah, yes.

410
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:11,400
And I'm just now really starting
to tap into it.

411
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,680
How about you?
I don't remember if it was the

412
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:18,000
first or second season.
I feel like it was the first,

413
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:24,000
but those years are a blur.
Anything that happened in New

414
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,640
York is a blur.
Correct, Just like in Glee.

415
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,880
Literally.
So it was somewhere in the very

416
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:33,400
beginning.
Because if you say here's a Ryan

417
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,960
Murphy show, but it's disasters,
I'm going to be like, hell yeah.

418
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:39,760
Yeah.
Whereas I was like, ha, no thank

419
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:40,680
you.
Yeah.

420
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,360
So I was like, yeah, I'm going
to watch that because like, I

421
00:22:44,360 --> 00:22:49,920
watched Grey's Anatomy.
I watched ER, back when I was a

422
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,320
small child who probably
shouldn't have been watching it.

423
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,480
I watched Rescue 911.
I don't know if you know what

424
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,000
that is.
It sounds vaguely familiar.

425
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,000
It also sounds like a show I
should not be watching.

426
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:05,640
So so Rescue 911 was a docudrama
like it was a documentary, but

427
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:09,880
they did reenactments hosted by
William Shatner.

428
00:23:10,120 --> 00:23:12,440
Outstanding.
Oh, congratulations to William

429
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,120
Shatner on going Canon, by the
way.

430
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,000
OK, going Canon, William
Shatner.

431
00:23:18,360 --> 00:23:22,840
I yeah, it didn't didn't, didn't
Spock, Kirk and Spocko Canon.

432
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,160
Oh, I assume that was like,
always Canon.

433
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,400
It should have been always
Canon, but I think they went

434
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,600
like Canon a couple a couple of
days ago.

435
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:33,320
Oh sperk sperk sperk.
Canon 2024.

436
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:37,000
I think, yeah, well.
I mean the DESDL meme didn't

437
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,520
tell me.
Right, the DESDL meme I think

438
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,480
died with the election in 2024
so.

439
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,400
I think that's true, yeah.
Which is, I think that's how I

440
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,040
got all my World News.
Yeah, I think it had something

441
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,440
to do with one of the books.
I don't know.

442
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,960
I'd have to go back and find it.
Yeah, it popped up on Tumblr and

443
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,000
I was like, isn't this always
true?

444
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:56,400
It should have been but.
Yeah.

445
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:58,720
Shout out to our fandom 4
mothers who knew.

446
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,280
Exactly.
But yeah, so Rescue 911 was a

447
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:07,560
docudrama in the, if not the
80s, at least the early 90s,

448
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:11,480
where it focused on like first
responders and the emergency

449
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,680
calls that they did.
And then it just like ran

450
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,840
through the call, right?
So the 911 call and then how

451
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,880
they responded and like into the
ER or something.

452
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,720
So I watched, I watched that
shit as a kid.

453
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,560
As an impressionable young child
and adrenaline speaking medical

454
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,240
drama.
I don't know why I didn't go

455
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:34,280
into the field of of this,
probably because I'm not that

456
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:38,360
good at math and I just knew
that I would never pass the chem

457
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,440
classes to become a paramedic or
a doctor.

458
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,800
I actually think being a 911
worker would be interesting like

459
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:48,680
a a dispatcher.
I just, I would probably cry all

460
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:51,320
day.
I think that that would be among

461
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,840
my least favorite jobs of all
time.

462
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:58,560
Yeah, like I, I, Maddie cries
every episode and I think that

463
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,960
would be me as well.
Yeah, for sure.

464
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,400
For real.
So yeah, I started, I started

465
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:06,800
the show real early.
Also the cast, I mean Angela

466
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,280
Bassett and Peter Krause are in
it, so I'm like hell yeah.

467
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:14,280
They're so good.
Yeah, so it was an easy show to

468
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,120
get into.
And then Ryan Guzman shows up in

469
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,920
the second season and Buddy
appears and you're like, well,

470
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,880
you got me again.
You got me shit.

471
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:29,720
The the the secret cast, you
know, hook that really got me is

472
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,240
kind of Choi.
Oh, he's adorable.

473
00:25:32,360 --> 00:25:35,320
He's like a secret weapon.
He's a freaking secret weapon

474
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,320
and I love him.
But many, many, many, many moons

475
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:44,480
ago, there was a Disney Channel
Original Movie called Halloween

476
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,120
Town.
I remember this.

477
00:25:47,120 --> 00:25:49,080
Remember Halloween Town.
Yeah.

478
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:53,120
And rumor has it, and I could
probably check it out, but, you

479
00:25:53,120 --> 00:25:55,400
know, I don't.
Yes, I was correct.

480
00:25:55,680 --> 00:26:01,640
So Kenneth Choi plays the plays
a role in Halloween Town.

481
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:05,800
He is like the cool creature who
sells the, the brooms.

482
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:10,640
And I'm like, so you're telling
me that I have loved chimneys

483
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:14,440
since I was like 11 years old?
You're telling me that I've been

484
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,160
obsessed with Chimney Han since
I was like 11 years?

485
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,200
Like, that tracks.
OK, Fantastic.

486
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,600
And just the cast is so good.
It's so good.

487
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,960
Do you want to know something
awful about Kenneth Choi?

488
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,280
No, I don't want to know
anything awful.

489
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,160
He's a he's has to be a precious
pumpkin, otherwise my whole

490
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,480
life's gonna fall down.
He appears in an episode of

491
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,200
Glee.
That doesn't surprise me.

492
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:39,920
Which one?
Showmance.

493
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:41,560
He's Doctor.
He's one of.

494
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:45,320
He's the doctor.
That that delivers Quinn's baby.

495
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:47,200
Yeah.
Really.

496
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:52,080
Oh man, I gotta go watch that.
He's in there for like 30 what,

497
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:53,760
15 seconds?
Maybe.

498
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,800
Yeah, outstanding.
The common thread.

499
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:00,400
The thread ties us all together.
The you know the string, the

500
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,800
red.
String of fate as OK.

501
00:27:03,360 --> 00:27:06,160
The red string of Ryan Murphy.
So there's.

502
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:07,920
I don't considering the.
Carol.

503
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,720
Considering the Carol Hudson
guest stars in She's like in

504
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:15,400
episode of season 2.
And I OK spoilers for people who

505
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,520
haven't moved on.
She reappears.

506
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,360
She keeps on.
She has.

507
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,200
She comes back for a multi
episode arc with her husband

508
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,120
Norm.
Good, I hope she survives.

509
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:33,680
As as much as I I hate that Ryan
Murphy reuses so many actors so

510
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:38,840
often because I think I think
one, it actually keeps younger

511
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:42,920
new talent down, right?
Like he populates his universe

512
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:47,240
with the same people and it
prevents these shows that get a

513
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:51,680
lot of attention from exposing
new actors, right?

514
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,720
And.
He, he has selected people who

515
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,480
are not necessarily the the
greatest talents out there,

516
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,200
right?
I'm not going to name names

517
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,680
because everyone your mileage
may vary.

518
00:28:04,120 --> 00:28:06,280
And you?
And we all know that neither

519
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,120
Emily nor I would be good
replacements.

520
00:28:08,120 --> 00:28:09,160
What?
Are you talking about I'm a

521
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,200
great actor?
I am a terrible actor.

522
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,520
I am I I.
Would hate it.

523
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,120
No, I don't want to be an actor
in any way, shape or form.

524
00:28:17,120 --> 00:28:18,960
It's.
It is a lot harder than it

525
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:20,320
looks.
But it's awful.

526
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:24,400
No, terrible, but you know,
reusing the same American Horror

527
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,440
Story as an example, reusing
some of the characters.

528
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,160
Fantastic idea.
Great by like the ninth season.

529
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:32,960
You're like, Oh my God, OK,
Jesus isn't.

530
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,960
Sarah Paulson in like 6 of the
nine seasons.

531
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,000
Yeah, and she's one of the ones
where I'm like, get her the fuck

532
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:39,840
out of here.
I'm so tired of her.

533
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,080
It's great, but like.
I'm so tired of it.

534
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:43,680
It's the same person.
It's the.

535
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,560
Same person every time and and
then the first couple times

536
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:50,720
you're like great.
And by by 9 and 10 stop, I'm

537
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:52,840
done.
Like bring in some new people

538
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:57,200
and or like skip seven seasons
and then bring her back, right?

539
00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:00,680
Like everyone over and over.
No, bring her.

540
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,680
OK, whatever.
Now, if it were Kathy Bates,

541
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:08,640
sure anyway.
But giving Ryan Murphy's ability

542
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:14,680
to give actors a shot is great.
Like, like giving Kenneth Choi

543
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,040
this guest part and then, OK,
he's been rehired.

544
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,440
Like, it's a double edged sword,
right?

545
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,080
Yeah.
Because his shows are populated

546
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,760
with a lot of Pocs.
Yeah, they are.

547
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:29,400
And that's fantastic.
It is actually one of the things

548
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:34,400
that struck me in Season 1 of
911.

549
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:39,240
It's not weird or bad.
It's it's in fact very, very

550
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,560
good.
But it does strike me, Yeah.

551
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,600
And I was like, this is such a
choice and I'm it's perfect.

552
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,080
It is so it's for me because it
is a choice.

553
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,240
You don't just.
Stumble into it like any Any

554
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,520
actor who has ever looked at
casting notices will tell you

555
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,240
when they say any race or
ethnicity, that's not what they

556
00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,160
mean.
That's not they just mean they

557
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,040
have to put that on there so
they don't get in trouble.

558
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:05,120
That's not what they mean.
And the fact that this show is

559
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:08,880
populated by SO, so many
different people who look so

560
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:13,600
many different ways is really
striking in the best of ways.

561
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:17,320
It.
Honestly is and there's times on

562
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,960
screen where it's like Hen and
Karen and.

563
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,080
Denny.
Denny and, like, their whole

564
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,400
family and like, there's not one
white person on screen.

565
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:29,880
Yeah.
And there's like, OK, great.

566
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:31,600
Great.
Fantastic.

567
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:34,600
And that, yeah, I love it.
Now they need to stop fucking

568
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:38,480
around with Hen and Karen.
Leave them alone.

569
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,800
Leave those ladies alone.
They have been so much.

570
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:44,640
They deserve the entire
universe.

571
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:47,760
Leave them alone.
There'll be like a scene with

572
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:52,560
Hen and and Eddie and Chimney,
right?

573
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,160
And like not a white person to
be found.

574
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,840
Not a white person to be found.
It's fantastic, it's so good.

575
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,080
So Eddie or Murphy is a a double
edged sword for me in his

576
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,200
casting 'cause it's like yay and
also.

577
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,960
Yeah, And you know, at some
point I think we're going to

578
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,280
have to do an entire episode.
Just there's a scene.

579
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:13,040
I think it's in season, either
season 7 or season 8 with one of

580
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:17,800
the 911 operators who talks
about the impact that Glee had.

581
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:19,800
Oh, that's season 8.
It just happened.

582
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,920
It's before Glee and after Glee.
Yeah, it's before Glee and after

583
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,160
Glee.
And like, on the one hand, is it

584
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,960
masturbatory for a Ryan Murphy
show to talk about another Ryan

585
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:29,320
Murphy show in the way it
changed the world?

586
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:31,560
Yes.
How however?

587
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,720
He's not wrong.
He's not wrong and the the the

588
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,080
children on the Internet have
been disagreeing about that.

589
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,920
They're like he, it's just a
stupid child like it is and.

590
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:44,440
And also.
And also the number, like I was

591
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,640
talking about about it to
somebody today and talking about

592
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:54,840
how Bert Hummel for a lot of
queer kids in our generation was

593
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:59,160
the first time they've ever seen
a parent on TV take a coming out

594
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:01,680
well.
Yeah, that Bert, He's president

595
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:05,000
now, right?
Oh, he'd better be like Bert

596
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:08,880
Hummel was the first experience
that a lot of those kids had

597
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,640
with somebody coming out and it
turning out OK.

598
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,720
And so like, you know, we look
at this and like, oh, well, you

599
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,440
gotta forgive what they've done
in a in a pre Glee world.

600
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:24,520
But like, actually for a lot of
millennials, especially the ones

601
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,800
who are in things like theater,
they're in things like dance,

602
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:32,120
they're in things like show
choir where your sexuality may

603
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,320
be a little up for question in
bits and pieces.

604
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,320
Like this was a thing.
This was a tool that we use.

605
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:40,080
Yeah, it was, and it was
important.

606
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:45,080
Yeah, unfortunately Glee was God
damn it.

607
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:46,520
Yeah, I know.
Sorry dude.

608
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:49,080
OK, so I guess we can go to the
next question.

609
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,840
Yeah, which I got.
I think we covered it was why

610
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:53,360
did you stop, watch, start
watching?

611
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,720
Sorry, my fault.
Because it took over my Tumblr

612
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,840
timeline, it took over the
dashboard, it took over my

613
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,960
dashboard.
And then all of a sudden, like I

614
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:03,760
learned that Emily is also into
this thing.

615
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:05,760
And I was like, oh boy, here we
go.

616
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:09,280
Here we go one more time.
That's right.

617
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,240
Yeah.
No, it, it, it snuck up on me.

618
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,120
It's like falling in love.
It was like slowly and then all

619
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,960
at once.
Never read that.

620
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:20,920
I mean no, that that's the fault
in our stars.

621
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:25,800
It wrecked me every time.
OK, So next question, it's it's

622
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:27,680
not a two parter, but they are
two separate questions.

623
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:33,800
So this is who are your favorite
characters slash storylines on

624
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:38,160
the show like Canon?
Because the follow up is like

625
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:42,160
characters and tropes in fic.
So like, not what's happening in

626
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:46,480
people's brains and in the
tropes, but like on the show

627
00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:49,960
with the storylines, like what
is happening in the text.

628
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:56,200
So to clarify, I know what
happens in the show based almost

629
00:33:56,200 --> 00:34:00,240
exclusively on Tumblr.
I have seen the entirety of

630
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,560
season 1.
I think right now I'm on season

631
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:07,720
2 episode like 14, and then I've
seen season 8 episodes one

632
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:11,320
through 5.
So I don't have yet a complete

633
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:16,719
textual understanding of the
document so far.

634
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:18,920
You're farther ahead than I
thought you would be, honestly.

635
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,000
I got through a couple of
episodes today, frankly, let's

636
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:27,679
be real honest.
So I am head over heels, head

637
00:34:27,679 --> 00:34:30,520
over heels, in love with Maddie
and Chimney.

638
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:37,320
Great.
Chimney is a soft boy who just

639
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:41,560
wants to be good.
He just wants to take care of

640
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,080
people.
He just wants to be funny.

641
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:49,239
He just wants to help and he
falls in love with like, Maddie

642
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:53,280
Buckley, who is going to be just
who's breaking out from these

643
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,280
real awful, horrible things.
And the two of them together are

644
00:34:56,280 --> 00:35:00,160
just so good.
And I love them.

645
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:05,720
I love the almost instantaneous
father son relationship between

646
00:35:05,720 --> 00:35:10,600
Captain Bobby and Buck.
I know, I I thought, I thought

647
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:12,640
they were kidding.
I thought the Internet was

648
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:16,560
kidding about Bobby being Buck's
dad.

649
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,240
And they are not kidding.
They're not kidding.

650
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:24,280
And I just, we're going to talk
probably in several episodes

651
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:30,640
from now about Bobby and the the
family he had and then the

652
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:34,360
family he's trying to build and
the families that he receives.

653
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:37,960
And is it a fair comparison?
No.

654
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:40,160
Does he deserve what comes to
him?

655
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:41,280
Like, I don't know.
It's a.

656
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,840
Complicated.
It's a complicated question, but

657
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:50,880
he loves Buck and takes care of
him like a son and it's really

658
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:54,920
hard to reconcile.
But it makes them both so happy

659
00:35:54,920 --> 00:36:00,400
and I just, I love them so much.
I love them so much it.

660
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:03,960
Is insane that the main
character of this show is a

661
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,080
murderer A.
Straight up murderer and an

662
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:07,720
alcoholic.
Like.

663
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:12,880
A.
Bra bro OK, what what kind of

664
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,080
murder is this?
It's not aggravated.

665
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:20,600
It's what second degree because
he didn't it wasn't intentional.

666
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:22,920
It was, I mean, it's.
Yeah, I don't know.

667
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,280
What's the other word?
It's not on purpose.

668
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:26,480
Murder.
Manslaughter.

669
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:28,560
Manslaughter, I think.
Types of murder I don't.

670
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:31,440
I don't know, there's some, some
lawyer can come on here and tell

671
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,320
us exactly what he should be
charged with and the fact that

672
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,800
he wasn't charged for it.
Did he not tell anybody like I?

673
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:37,760
I don't think he was charged for
it.

674
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:41,600
Third degree.
Oh, maybe it's manslaughter.

675
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,480
I don't unlawful killing that
doesn't involve malice

676
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:46,400
aforethought.
Yes, unlawful killing that

677
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:47,800
doesn't involve malice
aforethought.

678
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:50,600
He didn't mean to.
He didn't mean to, but like he

679
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,240
did a.
Little bit, yeah.

680
00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:55,840
And so the complications of
Bobby Nash is just a whole other

681
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,520
thing in and of itself.
But I love Maddie and Jimmy.

682
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:02,760
I love Buck and Bobby.
I love Eddie Diaz.

683
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:05,360
I.
Love Eddie Diaz.

684
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:06,560
I.
Will fight you for him.

685
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,720
I My first born son is Derek
Hale of Teen Wolf.

686
00:37:11,720 --> 00:37:14,240
My second born son is Luther
Hargreaves from the Umbrella

687
00:37:14,240 --> 00:37:15,120
Academy.
You.

688
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,000
Can have him, I don't know him.
And then I get Buck because I

689
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:21,760
get Buck in season 1, but then
Eddie comes in in season 2 and

690
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:29,440
Oh my God, Eddie, baby.
Like that man has so many things

691
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:33,160
happen to him and then he
decides to take them and make a

692
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,520
bunch of choices.
And whether or not I agree with

693
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,960
those choices, I probably would
have made similar choices.

694
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:44,880
And it's just like that man and
his entire character like arc is

695
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:48,840
a telenovela in in absolutely
every way.

696
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,160
And he is so interesting to
watch.

697
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:57,440
And like I am I I am excited to
get excited about Buck and

698
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,600
Christopher.
Haven't haven't gotten there

699
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:01,920
yet.
That really takes place in

700
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:05,040
season 3.
But like, I am so ready to get

701
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:11,160
there in Canon where Eddie's
aunt is like, dude, this my my

702
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,880
nephew is raising his son alone.
And Buck goes, OK, I'll compare

703
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:16,120
it with him.
Yeah.

704
00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:20,400
And I am so ready to see Buck
and Christopher and that father

705
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,160
son relationship that they
build.

706
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:25,040
I'm so ready for it.
As soon as Eddie's like, I have

707
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:27,040
a kid, Buck goes.
I love kids.

708
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,480
I am seeing, I am seeing
interpretations of the texts

709
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,240
that are like Buck doesn't love
children.

710
00:38:32,240 --> 00:38:34,200
I'm like my friends, have you
seen Season 1?

711
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,200
My my Bros in Christ, my Bros.
In Christ.

712
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:39,720
I don't.
I don't like children.

713
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:41,040
Like everyone knows this about
me.

714
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:44,800
Well, OK, the the nuance of this
is I don't like children's

715
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:46,680
parents.
Oh God, no parents the.

716
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,520
Worst, do you know what I mean?
Like kids themselves, what it is

717
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:51,920
about them is they're loud and
they're messy and.

718
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:53,080
They're sticky.
They're.

719
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:55,640
Sticky and like I don't even
like my own hands being sticky

720
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:57,000
as a whole thing.
So like, I don't like other

721
00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,960
people's bodily fluids and their
stickiness and they smell their

722
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:01,680
fault.
They're just kids, right?

723
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:03,800
And like when I'm grossed, you
know what I mean?

724
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,800
Like I don't want other people's
gross, but like kids can't

725
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,760
regulate, right?
So you just have to do they have

726
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,120
to learn it.
But I don't like kids parents

727
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:13,920
and kids don't come without
their parents.

728
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:15,520
So it's like a whole thing.
It's a whole thing.

729
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:19,320
But like kids on their own, you
can generally like steer them

730
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:21,200
better.
Like if a kid is by itself,

731
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,280
you're like, all right, we can
work with this.

732
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:27,000
I can make you better.
The scene where Buck gets the

733
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,400
little girl out of the claw
machine and then.

734
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:32,600
Gives it a little stuffed cow.
Face the entire time.

735
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:36,400
I don't know if that's actor
bleed and if Oliver Stark also

736
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,880
loves children or if that's just
excellent acting.

737
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,200
I don't know what it is, but
that scene I could watch

738
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:45,880
9,000,000 times.
It is so cute and so soft when

739
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:49,320
Buck in season 1 gets the baby
out of the pipe.

740
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:51,880
Yeah, even.
Though his first instinct is to

741
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:55,240
like slice it open.
Yeah, idiot.

742
00:39:56,120 --> 00:40:00,000
Like he is so immediately
protective that.

743
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:03,200
When they open the truck full of
those people that have been

744
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:07,120
locked inside and the father
hands his son to Buck, and Buck

745
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:10,080
is like, yes, I will care for
this child, other people.

746
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:11,960
Trust him.
Other people trust him with

747
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,640
children.
Buck freaking loves children.

748
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:21,640
Buck loves kids and the act the.
The little girls who play G like

749
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:25,560
the actor, so like clearly he's
got good vibes for kids.

750
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,560
Like they wouldn't, you know,
kids know when you're a Dick.

751
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:32,560
Yeah, kids know like it is.
It is so clear.

752
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:35,200
And I just can't wait to see
that actually happen in Canon.

753
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:40,560
But yeah, so and also I just, I
can't not shout out, shout out

754
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:43,600
Henrietta Wilson and her entire
family of preciousness.

755
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:45,960
I freaking love Hen.
I love her.

756
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:48,640
I love her.
I want to be in on the Hen

757
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:50,680
Athena wine night.
I want to be there.

758
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:54,280
Yes, their friendship is
fantastic.

759
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:57,040
It's so special.
It does get forgotten about a

760
00:40:57,040 --> 00:41:00,240
little bit and then it luckily
comes back a bit in Season 8

761
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:04,200
because it's there are not
enough just solid female

762
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:08,360
friendships in media.
Right, and this is a solid

763
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:10,520
female friendship.
Yeah, because like, their

764
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:13,880
friendships aren't going to be
rocked by men because like, she

765
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:15,240
don't give a fuck.
Don't know.

766
00:41:15,240 --> 00:41:18,240
It's like, no, whatever.
OK, Yeah, I loved you.

767
00:41:18,240 --> 00:41:20,240
Now I love you.
Then like, let's go.

768
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:22,640
Let's go.
Yep, so I love their scenes

769
00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:25,880
together and there's a lot of
fic where Eddie joins Wine

770
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:27,000
night.
God bless.

771
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,160
So I like I kind of want to see
that, but I also don't want like

772
00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:34,680
men interrupting their why night
so he can have like special why

773
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,640
night.
I think it would have to be a

774
00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:41,160
why night that comes to him.
Yes, it well, it would be like a

775
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:44,520
Maddie, Karen, Hen, Eddie.
Why night?

776
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:49,360
Yeah, but it would be like, you
know, Maddie hears from Buck

777
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:54,080
that Eddie's kind of spiraling.
And so Maddie and Karen and

778
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:58,840
Athena and and Hen just storm
the gates and it's like, look.

779
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,080
Hey, it seems like you're about
to jump off a bridge.

780
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:03,040
Can we help you?
Can we help you with that?

781
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,200
Like it sounds like you need a
friend right now.

782
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,200
Like, let's talk about it.
Totally.

783
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,720
They're so special, they're so
special, they're all so special.

784
00:42:11,720 --> 00:42:15,040
And hen and chimney and the
like, because I've just, I

785
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:18,160
finished hen.
Hen begins and chimney begins.

786
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:20,400
And just the.
Way that their relationship

787
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:24,200
builds over time and like the
steadfast determination that

788
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:28,280
that Chimney has to take care of
Hen because nobody took care of

789
00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:31,640
him.
And like, I just I love them.

790
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,640
This is a bond.
This is a bond forged I this is

791
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:39,560
forged family, forged family.
And I just, I love them so much.

792
00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,000
I love it.
Those are such good episodes.

793
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:45,640
They're so good.
But yes, so for me, the the

794
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,560
emergencies are less important.
For me, I guess what's important

795
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:52,320
are the relationships that each
character is dynamic and

796
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,920
interesting on their own, and I
love seeing them cross and

797
00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:56,080
interact.
How about you?

798
00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:01,640
Obviously Buck and Eddie I like.
I haven't really gotten there

799
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:07,000
yet, but I'm ready.
I love them separately so as a

800
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:10,040
duo they work for me.
Dude, I mean like.

801
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,920
Oh yeah.
I think that's why the ship

802
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:16,480
works for people, that it works
for the people who are like, I

803
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,600
don't see it.
I think are being obtuse,

804
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:23,680
obstinate and obtuse because
like.

805
00:43:24,720 --> 00:43:26,320
OK, we'll.
Talk back, we'll talk some.

806
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:32,160
Of that in a minute, so sure.
So Buck is such a fun character

807
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:36,480
for me because he starts out
they they name him in the show

808
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:41,160
Buck one point O and two point O
like they are aware that he has

809
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:46,160
made big changes in his life.
And I think that was purposeful.

810
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:48,200
I think they set out to do that
from the jump.

811
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:50,840
So Buck one point and and I
agree.

812
00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:56,560
I'm someone who I think it's bit
cunty of me, but I do think if

813
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:58,720
you're going to be actively
involved in a phantom, you

814
00:43:58,720 --> 00:44:00,680
should probably engage with the
text.

815
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:04,200
And I know there's a whole.
It's not transformative if you

816
00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:05,520
don't read the.
Text, right?

817
00:44:05,720 --> 00:44:07,800
There's a whole set of people
and maybe there are people

818
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,800
listening to this podcast and
like, this is not a hate

819
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,000
statement.
This is just a me statement.

820
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:15,800
But there's a whole section of
people who just like in

821
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,720
participate in phantom but don't
watch the show.

822
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:22,080
And I don't get that.
I I I don't get that.

823
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:26,120
It's it's how I got into this.
Like so I started seeing pink

824
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:29,120
pony club on my dashboard and
then I read fic and I was like I

825
00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:33,440
can't read this in good faith
without string text.

826
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:37,160
That's the thing about fanfic is
that it's a shortcut.

827
00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:40,600
You have to if if you're reading
fic, you're it's.

828
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:44,040
It really is the difference
between like fic and a novel.

829
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,800
Fic usually doesn't have the
back story of the character

830
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,200
because you don't.
Need it right, you don't need

831
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:51,680
it.
And so like I had gotten

832
00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:56,520
probably 50,000 and words into
FIG before actually getting to

833
00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:59,720
engage with the text.
So I'm looking at the things and

834
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,400
based on my time in Glee and on
my time in Teen Wolf, I'm

835
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:05,320
looking at the at the at the fig
and going like, well, based on

836
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:08,680
the number of times that this
specific thing occurs across

837
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:11,480
FIG, this must be Canon.
Yeah.

838
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:16,480
And so getting kind of using my
critical thinking skills to pull

839
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:20,480
textual analysis from the fic,
but then I have to go and I have

840
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:22,160
to go and absorb the source.
You have to.

841
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:25,840
I mean, you don't have to.
You don't have to, I just think

842
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:27,080
you I find it more.
Fulfilling.

843
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:30,560
I find it more fulfilling.
I think you get so much more

844
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:34,400
depth like and and and it's that
thing of like if you don't, if

845
00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:38,000
you can't love Evan Buckley as
one point O, you can't love him

846
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,160
as season 8.
No, right?

847
00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:44,840
Like if you don't love season.
One is I like I knew guys like

848
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:48,560
Buck one point O in college.
Would I have dated them?

849
00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:52,280
No would I have slept with them?
Probably not, but would I have

850
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:55,440
gone up to them at the formal
and hugged them big because

851
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:59,240
they're just good dudes?
He's trying speaking, they're

852
00:45:59,240 --> 00:46:00,400
trying.
He's.

853
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:01,520
Cute.
And he's trying.

854
00:46:01,720 --> 00:46:04,320
You're he's trying.
And did he succeed?

855
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:06,920
Absolutely not.
Did he do stupid things like

856
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:08,440
only really when it came to his
job?

857
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:11,720
Yeah, I mean like.
Buck's never been cruel.

858
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:15,680
No, he.
Obviously has parent issues.

859
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:20,880
His sister leads one of the
worst lives he left home.

860
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:25,600
He felt well he actually didn't
know as Buck went 1.0 why his

861
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:27,480
parents were the way they are.
He learns that later.

862
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:30,880
But he's always felt like an
outsider in his own family.

863
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:34,720
He runs off.
He actively tries to get hurt

864
00:46:34,720 --> 00:46:37,120
doing dangerous things so his
parents will pay attention to

865
00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:38,920
him.
He goes off to be like a

866
00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:41,520
bartender in Costa Rica or
wherever the fuck he was.

867
00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:44,240
He does all these weird jobs.
He's a ranch hand, like trying

868
00:46:44,240 --> 00:46:46,800
to figure himself out, and
that's like a common story for a

869
00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:47,840
lot of people.
Yeah.

870
00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:51,200
For sure, but he's not, he's not
like he's a bit of a douchebag

871
00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:56,320
for how he treats women, but he
is trying to feel something,

872
00:46:56,720 --> 00:46:58,640
right?
Like the whole firehose thing.

873
00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:04,080
Even that it like he doesn't
seem to in my reading of season

874
00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:09,040
1 he doesn't seem to like the
lady that he's in a relationship

875
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:10,960
with.
Like he's just sold.

876
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:14,280
Oh.
But his hookups, his hookups are

877
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:18,520
like set up as hookups.
Yeah, Buck is so into Abby that

878
00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:20,640
he waits for her after she
breaks up with him.

879
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:23,800
He just doesn't see it.
He just doesn't know it.

880
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:27,320
And she's a twat for doing that.
Like she just leaves and doesn't

881
00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:29,960
tell him.
It doesn't tell him like it.

882
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:32,400
Yeah, I have a lot of feelings
about Abby Clark.

883
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:33,840
Let's.
We'll talk about that in a

884
00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:34,680
minute.
Like.

885
00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:38,640
Well, I mean well, we can't make
this a nine hour episode.

886
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:40,120
I.
Mean we can't it's Ryan Murphy,

887
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:42,040
but it'll.
Be another episode.

888
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:44,560
We'll talk about it later.
It'll be the relationship

889
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:45,960
episode.
Oh goodness.

890
00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:48,800
This is the This is the intro
episode, do we?

891
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:50,840
Need to do we need to switch
from Canon to fanon?

892
00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:53,520
For for buck.
For your question.

893
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:55,240
Oh, well, no 'cause I have like
Eddie.

894
00:47:55,240 --> 00:47:56,560
Well, you talked about Eddie.
I love Eddie.

895
00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:59,440
I love.
I mean, I, we talked a little

896
00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:03,200
bit about Cap.
I, I am just endlessly

897
00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:05,640
fascinated by his character arc,
I kind of think.

898
00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:11,640
I think the writers didn't
really, they didn't really think

899
00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:14,480
about the consequences and like
what it means to have a

900
00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:17,600
character with that back story.
It's rough because like, the

901
00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:20,840
thing about his particular back
story is like, he can absolve

902
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:23,520
himself all he wants.
Yeah.

903
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,640
He can go to church, he can work
through his alcoholism, he can

904
00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:29,800
do all the things that he does.
But like at the end of the day,

905
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:34,120
there are real physical
consequences to his actions.

906
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:36,440
And I'm so far.
In the text.

907
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:41,320
So far in the text, he hasn't
been held accountable by those

908
00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:45,560
There's there are.
Some accountability things for

909
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:48,840
it, but like I, he's not like,
arrested.

910
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:51,840
Yeah, he's not arrested.
He's not held in like a

911
00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:56,680
mandatory like rehabilitation
program.

912
00:48:56,760 --> 00:49:00,800
I personally, just to add to the
suffering, would like to see

913
00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:05,560
Marcy's parents come in and
confront him.

914
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:06,920
Sure.
Yeah, that's not going to

915
00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:09,600
happen, but sure.
To make reparations in the only

916
00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:13,480
real way he has left.
Yeah, that, that sure don't

917
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:15,720
happen, but.
No it doesn't but and it won't.

918
00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:20,280
But like he he seems to escape
any kind of outside world

919
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:23,360
consequences which like doesn't
feel super right.

920
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:26,720
It doesn't.
There's something that comes up,

921
00:49:26,720 --> 00:49:29,480
I don't remember what season.
It should be coming up pretty

922
00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:32,200
quick for you about some some
fall back from it.

923
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:33,920
Good.
Not that I want to see him

924
00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:35,720
suffer, because I don't, but you
know.

925
00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:40,840
And then there's a second, a
second fall back in Season 6 or

926
00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:44,160
7.
But yeah, it's not like the cops

927
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,680
show up and be like, hey, by the
way, you did kill 140 some

928
00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:48,720
people.
Row.

929
00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:51,920
Row.
I like Maddie, I wish bad things

930
00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:56,320
would stop happening to her.
I As much as I want bad things

931
00:49:56,320 --> 00:50:00,920
to stop happening to Hen and
Karen, I want to just put Maddie

932
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:04,080
in her happy, beautiful little
apartment with her tiled

933
00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:08,040
staircase and her corner
fireplace and her beautiful

934
00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:13,400
courtyard and just like, put big
awesome guard dogs in front of

935
00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:15,360
it.
Like stop letting things happen

936
00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:17,800
to Maddie Buckley.
What's what's the last bad thing

937
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:22,880
that's happened to her for you?
She just killed her ex-husband

938
00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:23,400
her.
Husband.

939
00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:26,880
After being kidnapped.
Got it.

940
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,200
Got so that OK, yes, OK, great.
I wasn't sure if that had

941
00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:31,000
happened yet.
And I was like, oh, about that

942
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:33,080
apartment.
She and the chimney just

943
00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:35,840
smooched and it was very, very
soft.

944
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:38,040
And I'm very sad about her
apartment because she probably

945
00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:39,880
can't go back there because it's
where she got.

946
00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:42,320
I love that apartment.
I'll take it.

947
00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:44,400
I'll.
Take it from you, it's fine.

948
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:49,120
It was mostly like, how the fuck
did she afford that one person?

949
00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:50,360
Damn.
Because it's Glee.

950
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,320
Because it's Glee.
Yeah.

951
00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:55,560
I was like, oh, it's so pretty.
And she just like, walked right

952
00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:57,760
into it.
Fuck yeah.

953
00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:00,480
I I have a lot of questions.
So for writing this fix that I'm

954
00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:03,520
doing, I've been over
researching 'cause that's what I

955
00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:06,120
do.
Most firefighters have like

956
00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:09,320
second jobs 'cause they can't
afford to live on a firefighter

957
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:11,000
salary.
So now I'm like, how do these

958
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,760
people live anywhere?
In Los Angeles.

959
00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:19,840
In Los Angeles, like God damn
they Eddie has a house how is he

960
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:24,080
affording a mortgage like?
And paying Carla.

961
00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:28,560
And paying Carla, well then I
was thinking like, is Carla like

962
00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:34,680
a state?
Service like because of Chris

963
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:36,960
and whatever.
Yeah, like, is this an insurance

964
00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:37,680
thing?
Does she go?

965
00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:39,040
Yeah.
So then I was like, I can't

966
00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:41,200
think about this too much or I
will explode.

967
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:44,880
OK, It will explode.
So let's move on to fandom.

968
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:49,760
What are your favorite fandom
like, character moments, tropes.

969
00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:55,720
That that maybe are like too
much for Canon, Like what?

970
00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:56,480
You know what I mean?
Like.

971
00:51:56,760 --> 00:52:00,120
So we'll start, we'll start with
the obvious and then move to the

972
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:03,680
specifics.
So there was a text post I came

973
00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:08,000
across a few like like last week
that I just put in the queue

974
00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:14,360
talking about how as somebody
new to 911, you know, the OP was

975
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:17,800
like, I thought it was just like
Tumblr syndrome, you know,

976
00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:20,960
there's two nice looking men.
They're on screen, they're close

977
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:23,520
to together.
Like maybe Tumblr is just making

978
00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:30,560
things up wrong, wrong within
like the so Eddie shows up in

979
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:37,320
2/1 and from the drop you the
first thing you see of him is he

980
00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:39,520
is shirtless.
He is putting a shirt on and

981
00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:42,080
what a man is playing in the
background by salt and pepper

982
00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:48,000
And like from the jump, because
they're not like the whole team

983
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:53,120
is there, but Buck is in the
center taking it all in and

984
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:55,520
feeling a lot of like angry
feelings about it because he

985
00:52:55,520 --> 00:52:58,000
feels like he's the hot shit.
And now there's Eddie and Eddie

986
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,320
is really pretty.
But like, this is not

987
00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:06,360
tumbleritis.
This is we are being spoon fed

988
00:53:06,360 --> 00:53:08,600
from Canon.
And so, of course, what we're

989
00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:12,600
talking about is, is the
fictional, currently non Canon

990
00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:15,720
ship between Buck and Eddie,
affectionately called Buddy.

991
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:22,400
And like I thought, you know,
not that like Steric isn't real

992
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:25,520
in my heart, but we're we're
pulling stuff.

993
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:29,960
We're pulling little bits and
glances and and cuts and we're

994
00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:32,200
leaping to conclusions.
There are no conclusions to be

995
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:36,560
leaping with Buck and Eddie, Not
at all.

996
00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:42,200
I, if you were to take that
footage to a class of college

997
00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:45,560
students and be like critically
analyze what's happening here,

998
00:53:45,560 --> 00:53:48,480
they'd be like, those two are
fucking, or at least they will

999
00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:50,240
be by the end of the season.
It is.

1000
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:57,400
It is truly wild the amount of
like development they have put

1001
00:53:57,400 --> 00:53:59,760
in between those things.
So like later in season 2,

1002
00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:05,880
Maddie calls out like, so this
does this boy crush on Eddie

1003
00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:08,520
mean that you're over, You're
finally over Abby, you're ready

1004
00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:13,560
to move out from Abby.
And then in season 7, we get

1005
00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:17,000
Buck coming kind of coming out
of the closet.

1006
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:20,680
He's coming out as bisexual.
Like he's actually a Canon

1007
00:54:20,720 --> 00:54:24,080
cannon Buck Canon buy Buck
style.

1008
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,240
Stilinski walked so that Evan
Buckley could run.

1009
00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:31,360
And we go back to that.
And it's like, no, pumpkin, if

1010
00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:37,640
you like boys, a boy crush is
just a crush that's a regular

1011
00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:41,000
crush.
So like, all of the support

1012
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:45,560
system is Canon, all of the
evidence is Canon, and it is

1013
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:47,920
truly mind boggling.
Truly mind boggling.

1014
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:52,080
Before I get specific, do you
have anything you'd like to add

1015
00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:54,960
to that?
They'll be cowards if they don't

1016
00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:57,160
kiss.
Cowards.

1017
00:54:57,640 --> 00:55:00,880
Just straight up cowards and
straight up cowards.

1018
00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:04,880
Like the whole Catholicism
thing.

1019
00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:09,760
Like if this is not a setup for
a coming out arc, what are we

1020
00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:10,760
doing?
Like.

1021
00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:12,840
I'm straight.
Yeah, I'm celibate.

1022
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:16,240
Who says that straight people
don't announce they're straight?

1023
00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:19,240
Straight people don't announce
they're straight even just

1024
00:55:19,240 --> 00:55:21,520
they're being hit on you just.
Don't.

1025
00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:23,720
It's just.
Like, oh, I'm not interested.

1026
00:55:23,720 --> 00:55:28,120
You're just like, no, thank you.
It's it it the fact that they

1027
00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:32,360
had they literally in the text,
they had a conversation with

1028
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:35,520
Buck's, I think current
boyfriend, maybe in the process

1029
00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:38,920
of breaking up with him.
Boyfriend Tommy talking about

1030
00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:41,720
how he was in a relationship
with a woman and that breaking

1031
00:55:41,720 --> 00:55:44,040
that she was his beard and that
breaking up with her was the

1032
00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:46,160
most honest thing he'd ever done
in that relationship.

1033
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:50,480
And then in the same episode we
get Eddie talking to his

1034
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:52,960
Catholic priest about do you
know why I grew this mustache?

1035
00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:54,640
It's because they wouldn't let
me grow a beard.

1036
00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:58,320
So you're using it as a mask to
hide behind?

1037
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:00,840
Yeah, I guess I am.
Yes, you are.

1038
00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:02,880
He looked real good with the
beard though.

1039
00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:04,040
Oh my God, he would look so
good.

1040
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:06,120
But like the scruff.
The scruff gets me every time.

1041
00:56:06,560 --> 00:56:10,560
But like, if this were happening
in real life, if these were real

1042
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:13,320
people that were having real
conversations, they are real

1043
00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:14,440
thoughts and feelings.
Yeah.

1044
00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:16,680
But if they were like, not
scripted, you know what I mean,

1045
00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:19,320
then it would be funny
coincidences.

1046
00:56:19,640 --> 00:56:23,560
But the fact that they wrote it
and they shot it and they edited

1047
00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:26,640
it in and they broadcast it on
television means it's done on

1048
00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:30,920
purpose.
Yes, that is our our frequent

1049
00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:35,640
refrain about TV shows is that
like if it made it to screen,

1050
00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:37,640
it's on purpose?
If it made it to screen, it's on

1051
00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:39,880
purpose.
Like, like it went in too many

1052
00:56:39,880 --> 00:56:42,920
hands.
It it went the, the few

1053
00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:47,200
accidents that happen in media
are things like a Starbucks cup

1054
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:50,600
in the background that that's an
accident, right?

1055
00:56:50,880 --> 00:56:54,800
These these comparisons are not
accidents, they are on purpose.

1056
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:58,720
It is truly mind boggling.
It's very hard to accidentally

1057
00:56:58,720 --> 00:56:59,960
edit something.
Yeah.

1058
00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:04,920
So, you know, I I'm a
supernatural survivor.

1059
00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:09,800
I've been cocked block for 15
seasons, I guess it could happen

1060
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:11,600
to me again.
That's it could happen.

1061
00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:12,920
It could.
It sure could.

1062
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:17,600
Thing I you know, there's plenty
in in the show to be like, I

1063
00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:20,480
guess it won't happen and Buck
will just be unhappy forever,

1064
00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:25,720
forever left behind and feeling
not good enough for the people

1065
00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:26,920
that he's with.
That's fine.

1066
00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:28,640
That's a way you could play this
game.

1067
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:32,280
Honestly, I think that might
hurt worse than Buddy not going.

1068
00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:36,280
Canon sure is that they've set
Buck up with his abandonment

1069
00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:38,920
issues for eight seasons.
I know.

1070
00:57:39,240 --> 00:57:42,600
Being constantly left behind,
falling for people, getting

1071
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:46,600
friendships, having his family
over and over and over again,

1072
00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:50,200
and then constantly being left
behind because he's not right,

1073
00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:52,560
he's not good, he's not good
enough.

1074
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:54,840
And now Eddie's gonna be like,
bye, I'm going to Texas.

1075
00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:59,680
And now Eddie's leaving his like
his like ride or die partner

1076
00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:03,360
bestie of the last seven years
is just like, I guess you're not

1077
00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:08,120
worth it to stick around for
like that Would it's it's if it

1078
00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:10,320
happens, it's gonna kill him.
Yes it would.

1079
00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:12,640
If it he's already.
On shaky ground, so.

1080
00:58:13,040 --> 00:58:16,240
Shaky ground, poor thing.
But like, if that happens, if

1081
00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:19,120
Eddie just like drops off the
face of the planet and moves to

1082
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:23,840
moves back to Texas, Buck is
going to absolutely lose because

1083
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:27,560
at this point it will be such a
pattern that he can't shake.

1084
00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:31,000
And that just feels cruel for a
TV show.

1085
00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:35,640
OK, but this is the show that
gave Hen and Karen Mara back and

1086
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:38,760
then immediately crushed Denny
under a car so.

1087
00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:41,760
Yeah, but now Denny's fine, and
it lasted for an episode.

1088
00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:44,720
Exactly.
But that's.

1089
00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:47,600
So they'll send Eddie to Texas
for an episode and then he'll

1090
00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:50,480
come back and not have a home
and he'll have to move into that

1091
00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:53,560
fuck ugly loft with Buck and
their one bed.

1092
00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:56,480
And their one bed, correct.
And if Eddie leaves for an

1093
00:58:56,480 --> 00:59:00,560
episode or two, that's fine.
That's a narrative arc.

1094
00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:04,360
I mean, I I will be very upset
and the fic will be delicious.

1095
00:59:04,680 --> 00:59:06,920
The narrative.
Arc is Christopher being in

1096
00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:09,480
Texas for this long?
Yes, and that's which is bad.

1097
00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:11,320
Parenting.
That's bad parenting, Ed Ed

1098
00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:14,960
Mundo, what are you doing?
But I love that his name is

1099
00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:16,120
Edmundo.
Me too.

1100
00:59:16,240 --> 00:59:18,000
I fucking love it.
Because he's like, is it

1101
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:19,120
Eduardo?
And it's like, no.

1102
00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:20,760
And I'm like, OK, well then what
is it?

1103
00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:24,200
And then Abuela Abuelita is like
Edmundo.

1104
00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:28,000
And I'm like, Oh yes, what a
good, what a good name.

1105
00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:30,200
I like it because I like.
It because.

1106
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:33,960
I like it because I have a lisp
and it's easier to say.

1107
00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:36,680
Edito or edito?
No, both of them.

1108
00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:38,680
Edito edito, leave the tongue in
the front.

1109
00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:45,280
But yeah, so it just, I think it
would be almost crueler to have

1110
00:59:45,280 --> 00:59:49,280
Eddie just leave it just
straight up abandoned Buck

1111
00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:51,760
forever.
And then he rides his motorcycle

1112
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:53,200
all the way to Texas to follow
him.

1113
00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:57,560
I mean, that sounds great, but
like, you know, that's a

1114
00:59:57,560 --> 01:00:00,360
different problem.
But like if you see if like the

1115
01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:03,600
series ends and Eddie is just
left or not Eddie a Buck, it's

1116
01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:06,720
just like left alone to Stew and
his abandonment, like that's

1117
01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:08,320
just cruel.
That's just bad writing.

1118
01:00:08,520 --> 01:00:10,960
It's bad writing.
We do promise this these bonus

1119
01:00:10,960 --> 01:00:13,640
Eppos won't be entirely buddy
related.

1120
01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:16,120
I I don't.
That's an Emily promise.

1121
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:21,600
I'm sorry, inclusive.
I mean, OK, we could, I could

1122
01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:24,760
start talking other stuff, but
I'm, I'm not butt in the brain.

1123
01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:26,760
We're in the thick portion of
this.

1124
01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:28,400
We're in the fandom portion of
this.

1125
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:31,240
Karen and Hen being perfect is
Canon.

1126
01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:33,920
Maddie and Chimney being perfect
is Canon.

1127
01:00:34,480 --> 01:00:38,480
Captain Bobby not really
processing his murder of 148

1128
01:00:38,480 --> 01:00:41,080
people, including his wife and
two young children is Canon.

1129
01:00:41,080 --> 01:00:44,720
I don't have to deal with that.
With with Maddie's second

1130
01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:48,880
pregnancy, I do think it's funny
that between real life

1131
01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:53,160
pregnancies for Jennifer Love
Hewitt and then the the show

1132
01:00:53,160 --> 01:00:56,440
pregnancies, she's like always
kind of pregnant.

1133
01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:59,840
She's always a little pregnant.
Because like she was actually

1134
01:00:59,840 --> 01:01:02,160
pregnant but having to hide it
and then the character is

1135
01:01:02,160 --> 01:01:06,440
pregnant and she wasn't anymore.
It's like back and forth, like

1136
01:01:06,920 --> 01:01:09,400
got to time these better.
Got to time these better guys,

1137
01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:13,120
but I'm sorry anything that
anything generally you want to

1138
01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:15,120
say about buddy before I start
getting specific?

1139
01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:19,480
No, not.
I mean it is, is good.

1140
01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:21,320
I also like that it's not white.
White.

1141
01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:22,760
Yeah, correct.
That's nice.

1142
01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:25,960
That is nice.
I mean, it's like it could be

1143
01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:27,800
better, but it's not white
white, so it could.

1144
01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:30,200
Be better.
But one of the things that I

1145
01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:32,840
love so much about Steric is all
of the AUS.

1146
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:38,080
Steric and Klein both really
lend themselves to in every

1147
01:01:38,080 --> 01:01:41,600
universe A use, yes, which I
love.

1148
01:01:41,760 --> 01:01:45,200
What I love about Buck and Eddie
is that you don't need it.

1149
01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:48,560
No, you don't need to reimagine
this scenario.

1150
01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:51,840
It's it's juicy enough just as
it stands.

1151
01:01:53,360 --> 01:01:58,880
I will say 1 gripe.
This is a this is a me gripe

1152
01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:01,760
with the fic that's out there.
This is a what it what's the

1153
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:03,240
right not as quick it's not as
quick.

1154
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:06,400
It's a I can't remember the
terminology at the moment.

1155
01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:07,760
We'll start talking and we'll
find the word.

1156
01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:13,760
It's a it's a me issue is a lot
of the longer fix that are going

1157
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:19,080
through their relationship will
include every single disaster in

1158
01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:20,720
the show.
Every cannon like.

1159
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:23,600
Every cannon event and it's like
you.

1160
01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:26,200
Fire truck.
The tsunamis.

1161
01:02:26,680 --> 01:02:29,520
Like and and like because
they're trying to include every

1162
01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:32,240
single one.
None of them carry any weight.

1163
01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:34,800
Right.
Because in the show, it's like,

1164
01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:39,400
you know, you spend a year in a,
in a season, right?

1165
01:02:39,720 --> 01:02:43,640
And a week per episode.
But when you're reading a fig,

1166
01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:47,480
it's like, here's a paragraph
and then a chapter and like, OK,

1167
01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:51,920
this is this is too much for one
story.

1168
01:02:52,040 --> 01:02:55,880
Yeah, that's fair.
You don't have to run through

1169
01:02:55,880 --> 01:02:59,000
all of these tragedies.
You can make it like a light AU,

1170
01:02:59,080 --> 01:03:03,560
Yeah, where some of these things
have happened or one of these

1171
01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:07,720
things have happened, and it's
still builds that bond for them

1172
01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:12,000
without needing everything
that's happened for them.

1173
01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:13,840
Yeah, I can.
I can feel that.

1174
01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:16,360
Because then it then for me it
starts to feel like they're all

1175
01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:17,520
the same.
Exactly.

1176
01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:20,040
And that I do that I do
understand.

1177
01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:22,160
Yeah.
I I've been feeling.

1178
01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:26,200
I've been feeling that one.
So that that's a personal like I

1179
01:03:26,240 --> 01:03:30,440
don't it happened in the show.
I I kind of just infer that it's

1180
01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:33,000
happened to them.
If it's a non AU fic, like I

1181
01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:34,840
just kind of you have to tell me
it happened.

1182
01:03:34,840 --> 01:03:37,240
I kind of assume it does.
I I believe you.

1183
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:38,280
It already happened.
It's cool.

1184
01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:38,680
Yeah.
You don't.

1185
01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:41,160
Have to tell me the whole
scenario again because like

1186
01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:44,040
unless you say otherwise, it
happens.

1187
01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:47,560
Like, yeah, of course Buck has
to get patted down at airport

1188
01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:49,880
security because of course he
always has metal in his leg.

1189
01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:51,200
Of course, he doesn't have to
tell me.

1190
01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:54,160
That's not what they're you.
Don't have to tell me that that

1191
01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:55,560
happened, I know that it
happened.

1192
01:03:56,200 --> 01:04:01,400
OK, but but what they're not
doing is like the long lasting

1193
01:04:01,440 --> 01:04:04,320
effects, right?
Like they're going through the

1194
01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:07,960
the the disaster and not the
trauma.

1195
01:04:08,120 --> 01:04:10,160
Like, why on earth would you
like?

1196
01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:13,120
Like you need to write about
Buck and Eddie finally going on

1197
01:04:13,120 --> 01:04:14,960
vacation, but Buck can't get in
the pool.

1198
01:04:15,240 --> 01:04:18,040
Why can't Buck get in the pool?
Why does he like?

1199
01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:21,520
Eddie's been shot 4 times.
Yeah, he has.

1200
01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:25,400
Once in the shoulder and then I
think it's three times during

1201
01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:26,040
his.
Tour.

1202
01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:27,560
Yeah.
It was like that helicopter,

1203
01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:30,640
that helicopter.
I think it was all in that like

1204
01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:32,640
scenario like.
When it when it went down, When?

1205
01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:36,720
It went down like that, man.
People die from a single gunshot

1206
01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:38,200
wound.
Yeah, and he's been shot 4

1207
01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:40,920
times.
Like it's there are real things.

1208
01:04:41,200 --> 01:04:44,600
And like I know it's not the
makeup departments fault, it's

1209
01:04:44,600 --> 01:04:48,080
the directors choices, but like
that man's torso does not look

1210
01:04:48,080 --> 01:04:49,960
like that.
No, boy, it does not.

1211
01:04:50,080 --> 01:04:54,280
And frankly, I personally would
love if his torso was a mess.

1212
01:04:54,680 --> 01:04:58,880
I I'm disgusting.
Give me those gunshot scars.

1213
01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:02,920
And those are not.
Pretty Auck got struck by

1214
01:05:02,920 --> 01:05:05,400
lightning.
Give me that Lichtenberg figure.

1215
01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:07,160
Give it to.
Me fortunate is I did the

1216
01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:10,240
research and those disappear in
like 72 hours.

1217
01:05:11,720 --> 01:05:15,280
So like he wouldn't, he wouldn't
have that, but his leg would not

1218
01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:17,520
look pretty.
Oh no, his leg should look

1219
01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:20,720
mangled.
So like and I think they said

1220
01:05:20,760 --> 01:05:24,320
that the screw, the screws were
taken out because that helped

1221
01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:26,600
stop the blood clots.
Yeah, that tracks.

1222
01:05:26,640 --> 01:05:29,080
But he should still have a a a
beam, a pipe in his leg.

1223
01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:30,960
He's still a pipe.
He does still.

1224
01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:32,400
He should still have a rod in
his leg.

1225
01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:34,200
Yeah.
He.

1226
01:05:34,440 --> 01:05:36,600
They hurt.
These people should hurt.

1227
01:05:36,960 --> 01:05:39,320
Yeah.
And they're in their mid 30s

1228
01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:41,280
now.
Or, well, canonically, God knows

1229
01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:44,320
how well they are because, like,
stuff has changed up until just

1230
01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:47,040
now when they said that Buck's
birthday was Oliver Stark's

1231
01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:48,400
birthday.
And like, OK, I guess that's his

1232
01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:50,040
birthday now.
I guess OK, here we go.

1233
01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:54,160
It's like, oh, so they're the
same age because Ryan is older

1234
01:05:54,160 --> 01:05:56,400
than Oliver, but now their
characters are the same age and

1235
01:05:56,400 --> 01:05:58,960
you're like, OK, fine.
Whatever, whatever, it's fine.

1236
01:05:59,000 --> 01:05:59,560
It doesn't.
Matter.

1237
01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:03,000
But yeah, the the fic authors
and I, God bless them, write as

1238
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:04,120
much as you want.
Do it.

1239
01:06:04,120 --> 01:06:06,040
I want all of it.
I want to read it all but.

1240
01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:09,520
But I think at the moment
there's a lot of focus on

1241
01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:12,280
getting the the disasters on the
page.

1242
01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:14,480
But but like, I'm a gross
gremlin.

1243
01:06:14,480 --> 01:06:18,160
I want like, I want the the
trauma after.

1244
01:06:18,160 --> 01:06:21,600
Like how does that shit OK?
Like I've had a breast

1245
01:06:21,600 --> 01:06:23,680
reduction.
Sometimes it still hurts and

1246
01:06:23,680 --> 01:06:27,640
it's been 20 years, right?
Like your nerves hurt.

1247
01:06:28,800 --> 01:06:34,080
Like that shit doesn't go away.
And he's been shot 4 times.

1248
01:06:34,080 --> 01:06:36,240
Like sometimes that body is
going to hurt in the morning.

1249
01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:39,560
They get flung around during
their emergencies.

1250
01:06:39,560 --> 01:06:43,080
Like sometimes they spend what,
4 hours fighting a fire?

1251
01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:45,600
Where's the I?
So again, I like I did.

1252
01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:49,800
Because he's after putting all
that weight on his leg for so

1253
01:06:49,800 --> 01:06:52,560
long, like he's going to be
limping around the Firehouse.

1254
01:06:52,800 --> 01:06:55,240
I've been doing deep dives into
Reddit just to see like what

1255
01:06:55,240 --> 01:06:57,040
real firefighters are like.
So I've been in like the

1256
01:06:57,040 --> 01:07:00,040
firefighting subreddit.
They live in ice baths.

1257
01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:04,640
Where are my ice bath scenes?
Not only just to see them

1258
01:07:04,640 --> 01:07:07,040
without their shirts on, but
like, where are my ice bath

1259
01:07:07,040 --> 01:07:09,400
scenes?
For real, like chimney.

1260
01:07:09,400 --> 01:07:12,600
I've just, I'm just now Chimney
has been in.

1261
01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:14,560
One of the things I'm most
impressed about Season 2 is that

1262
01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:17,360
they've kept the scar on
Chimney's forehead the whole

1263
01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:18,600
time.
So far.

1264
01:07:18,960 --> 01:07:20,880
And I'm just so impressed by
that.

1265
01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:23,560
But this man just got stabbed a
lot.

1266
01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:25,320
He went through traumatic
abdominal surgery.

1267
01:07:25,720 --> 01:07:27,960
Like, he's not shitting.
He should be messed up.

1268
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:29,800
Yeah, that man's not shitting
into a bag.

1269
01:07:29,800 --> 01:07:31,400
What's happening?
Like what?

1270
01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:34,200
Like what is happening?
Like I I'm such a sucker for it.

1271
01:07:34,440 --> 01:07:36,880
Speaking of things I am an
absolute sucker for in ficc,

1272
01:07:36,880 --> 01:07:41,320
specifically in buddy fic, you
can you can pry praise kink Evan

1273
01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:44,240
Buckley from my cold dead hands.
He does like to be told he's a

1274
01:07:44,240 --> 01:07:47,600
good boy.
He that is I it.

1275
01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:50,760
It's the closest thing to Canon
without me being in Tim and

1276
01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:53,680
yours walls like I.
You can take that from my cold

1277
01:07:53,680 --> 01:07:55,640
dead hands.
Yeah, cold, dead hands.

1278
01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:58,040
It seems right.
It feels right.

1279
01:07:58,040 --> 01:08:03,120
It feels so right because he has
been abandoned and left behind

1280
01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:09,640
and not good enough forever.
And that is going to be like a

1281
01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:13,760
secret or not so secret key that
gets turned and he's like oh, I

1282
01:08:13,760 --> 01:08:18,520
am loved, I am wanted, I am
beautiful, I am good enough.

1283
01:08:19,760 --> 01:08:22,040
Take it from a cold, dead hands.
Cold, dead hands.

1284
01:08:22,359 --> 01:08:24,479
Yeah.
So, you know, I've, there's,

1285
01:08:25,439 --> 01:08:27,760
there's plenty happening in
Victoria that I'm like, yes.

1286
01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:31,760
My goodness.
This is an hour and 15 minutes.

1287
01:08:31,800 --> 01:08:34,120
It sure is.
If you want, if you, dear

1288
01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:37,800
listener, want to talk with us
about 911, or about Eddie

1289
01:08:37,800 --> 01:08:41,359
potentially moving to El Paso
like a like a person who's

1290
01:08:41,359 --> 01:08:46,040
making choices, or about real
life consequences for Captain

1291
01:08:46,040 --> 01:08:49,080
Bobby Nash and his apartment
fire, or if you want to be

1292
01:08:49,080 --> 01:08:53,319
invited to Hen and Athena's wine
nights, please come talk to us.

1293
01:08:53,319 --> 01:08:57,319
We are on the Internet at
Phantom on the Rocks and we want

1294
01:08:57,319 --> 01:09:00,240
to talk to you.
I there there is no set cadence

1295
01:09:00,240 --> 01:09:02,840
to these bonus episodes.
Apologies for people that want

1296
01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:05,840
like a show dropped every
Tuesday at 8:00.

1297
01:09:05,840 --> 01:09:08,479
That if you don't know by now,
that's really not how we roll

1298
01:09:08,479 --> 01:09:12,800
except for Pack dynamics, which
does have a set schedule because

1299
01:09:12,800 --> 01:09:16,600
we're somehow so much better at
that than the others.

1300
01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:21,279
So those are getting edited and
will be flying once more.

1301
01:09:21,279 --> 01:09:23,800
But yeah, these will be as we
have the time.

1302
01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:26,640
We have so much that we want to
talk about for 911.

1303
01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:30,840
So we will.
If you have questions about 911

1304
01:09:30,840 --> 01:09:33,279
that you want us to answer,
that's probably a good way that

1305
01:09:33,279 --> 01:09:37,200
we can run these bonus episodes.
We will probably ask each other

1306
01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:41,439
episode or questions of like
stuff like we did today.

1307
01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:43,760
Those are my questions for
today.

1308
01:09:43,760 --> 01:09:48,560
Those are like the intros.
So maybe we'll try to write out

1309
01:09:48,880 --> 01:09:50,359
other questions for the next
episodes.

1310
01:09:50,359 --> 01:09:53,920
Maybe that's a good way to
structure because we don't tend

1311
01:09:53,920 --> 01:09:56,360
to structure episodes because
we're not professionals.

1312
01:09:56,880 --> 01:09:59,200
No, we're not.
We are professional fans though,

1313
01:09:59,400 --> 01:10:01,640
and that's the point.
Talented amateurs.

1314
01:10:01,640 --> 01:10:04,680
I haven't been paid for it yet.
Talented amateurs.

1315
01:10:04,840 --> 01:10:08,760
Have no sponsors.
Now if Joaquin Sedilla wants to

1316
01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:11,920
sponsor us with his presence.
We would love to talk to you,

1317
01:10:12,040 --> 01:10:14,920
Joaquin and I.
You got I, I will bake you an

1318
01:10:14,920 --> 01:10:16,760
apple cobbler.
I'll put your name on it and

1319
01:10:16,760 --> 01:10:19,160
everything.
If Oliver Stark wants to talk to

1320
01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:22,960
us about his photography.
OK guys, he is, He is.

1321
01:10:22,960 --> 01:10:26,120
That man has got such an eye for
photography it drives me

1322
01:10:26,120 --> 01:10:29,880
bananas.
He is so good at any single

1323
01:10:29,880 --> 01:10:33,240
human person who is listening to
this and follows any of the cast

1324
01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:35,960
on Instagram.
Keep it off the streets.

1325
01:10:36,240 --> 01:10:37,800
Keep it off the streets.
Be.

1326
01:10:37,800 --> 01:10:41,320
Nice, don't get weird.
Don't get weird, I want Oliver

1327
01:10:41,320 --> 01:10:43,800
to take my picture just so I
would look nice.

1328
01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:45,360
Oh my.
God.

1329
01:10:45,680 --> 01:10:47,800
I just want like a nice picture
of myself.

1330
01:10:47,840 --> 01:10:50,800
Like, you know, we could just
have like a day and just hire

1331
01:10:50,800 --> 01:10:53,480
like I would love to hire him
just like as a photographer.

1332
01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:55,080
Oh my gosh, he's so.
Good.

1333
01:10:55,560 --> 01:10:57,840
Like a new headshot for work.
Like, could you just make me

1334
01:10:57,920 --> 01:10:58,920
look nice?
Yeah.

1335
01:10:58,920 --> 01:11:01,840
Can you just like follow me
around and I'll pay you?

1336
01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:04,440
Come photograph my wedding Like
come do.

1337
01:11:04,680 --> 01:11:06,360
Whatever.
That would look so pretty out in

1338
01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:09,360
the mountains.
Yeah, like, come do, come do

1339
01:11:09,360 --> 01:11:13,720
photography, just Oh my God.
But for real, guys, for real.

1340
01:11:13,720 --> 01:11:17,040
But off the streets fandom has
kind of a rough, a rough

1341
01:11:17,040 --> 01:11:19,440
reputation.
Keep it off the streets.

1342
01:11:19,600 --> 01:11:22,880
Remember, they are people and
parasocial relationships are

1343
01:11:22,880 --> 01:11:25,720
real and they are difficult.
And you've gotten they've gotten

1344
01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:27,480
bad, so.
Like keep it off the.

1345
01:11:27,480 --> 01:11:30,680
Streets, guys, lock it up.
Lock it up, lock it down.

1346
01:11:30,680 --> 01:11:33,120
Keep it off the streets.
Come talk to us about it.

1347
01:11:33,360 --> 01:11:36,880
We are not the streets.
We're not the streets you bring.

1348
01:11:36,920 --> 01:11:39,920
Bring your weirdness over here
and we'll bring your weirdness.

1349
01:11:39,920 --> 01:11:42,800
Bring your RPF, bring whatever

1350
01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:43,920
What?
Bring it over here.

1351
01:11:44,160 --> 01:11:47,200
We'll, it's for us.
Whatever weird shit you wanted

1352
01:11:47,200 --> 01:11:49,120
to tweet at the actors, just
bring it this way.

1353
01:11:49,120 --> 01:11:51,360
We'll absorb it.
We'll turn it around.

1354
01:11:52,040 --> 01:11:54,080

You and we'll talk about it with

Don't take it to the streets.

1357
01:11:58,360 --> 01:12:00,640
Keep it off the streets.
Great.

1358
01:12:00,840 --> 01:12:04,080
I had a great time today on your
side for our next bonus.

1359
01:12:04,240 --> 01:12:05,880
Don't worry, we'll be back with
Glee.

1360
01:12:05,880 --> 01:12:09,320
It's we're haven't forgotten
her, even if we try, because

1361
01:12:09,840 --> 01:12:10,920
we're going to make it to the
end.

1362
01:12:11,040 --> 01:12:15,000
We are.
I swear to Ryan Murphy.

1363
01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:20,920
So Atchison, Topeka, Santa Fe,
spectacles, testicles, wallet

1364
01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:24,160
and watch.
We will be back, I guess.

1365
01:12:24,400 --> 01:12:25,920
Yeah.
Bring us your questions, your

1366
01:12:25,920 --> 01:12:28,240
thoughts and comments.
So yeah, we'll catch you next

1367
01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:30,520
time for these 911 bonus
episodes.

1368
01:12:30,520 --> 01:12:32,840
And maybe I'll just put, like, a
little siren.

1369
01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:35,280
No sirens and podcasts are bad
because it makes you like turn

1370
01:12:35,280 --> 01:12:37,160
around in your car and think
there's someone following you.
