Whoa, just curious. Welcome to Just curious
media. This is let's talk CobraKai. I'm Jason Connell and I'm
without one Salvador Rodriguez.
That is because I am currentlyon vacation in Florida West Palm
Beach to be exact. And I don'tknow if you can see behind me if
you're watching on YouTube Live,it's a little bit washed out,

(08:16:31):
but that is the beach and theocean. And I'm enjoying myself
revisiting sun and warmerweather. Now that I'm a New
Englander. But this is aSaturday episode. It's a tribute
episode to Tom Sizemore aincredibly gifted character
actor who passed away on March3 2023. At 61. I was tracking

(08:16:53):
his health for the last coupleof weeks, he had a brain
aneurysm and his home was rushedto the hospital was living on
life support for the last coupleof weeks and his family got the
news that it was not going toturn around unfortunately, and
put affairs in order and he waspronounced dead March 3. So I

wanted to kind of do thisepisode rather than waiting to
get back because I'm a huge andhave been a huge Tom Sizemore
fan since he came on my radar.
And let me give you a breakdownof just some of the movies I
jotted down because it's anincredible list of great films.

But maybe they shot a bunch ofhim and they're gonna put him in
more than the first episode. Butthe first episode does have some

Cobra Kai, so it blew my mind.
And like I said, I was hopingfor better news. Unfortunately.
It's not to be. I mean, that'slife. It's very precious and
things happen. And I know thatSizemore had brushes with the
