(00:00):
I can show you the world shining, shimmering splendor.
How you doing, Christian? I'm doing pretty good.
Why? What are you?
You in a Aladdin mood? I am, I'm actually in a very big
Disney mood this week. You know, I Christian, it's,
it's been a long time coming. I have some very important news

(00:21):
for you. Oh, so Once Upon a time, Once
Upon a time. OK, let me hold on.
Let me go get some popcorn first.
Once Upon a time, I don't know if it was out or off cast.

(00:41):
It was probably off cast, or maybe it was both.
I once explained to you that in the Funimation line up there is
a character, a voice actor in fact, that was once a Broadway
performer. None other than the Genie for
the Broadway production of Aladdin.
Well, Christian, we've met that character.

(01:02):
And by God, I'm so fucking thankful that we're finally
here. Maybe.
So for those giving track at all, the character in question
is none other than the Muscly loon boy himself, Queen.
And can I fucking tell you that with this motherfucker graced my

(01:22):
eardrums for the first time in the dub, I fucking couldn't stop
grinning from ear to ear. Every minute he's on screen is a
fucking treat I don't even know how to describe.
The guy's got like tonal range. He fucking sings like, because
obviously he Can't Sing, so he might as well while he's there,

(01:43):
he, he's a fucking joy. And I have to listen to and I
can't stop thinking about how much I fucking love this idiot.
So yeah, that that's, that's what I have this week.
That's why I'm on. I'm on Disney High.
Did you know that he was going to voice Queen in the dub before
actually hearing it in the episode?
No, not at all. This is true Brendan lore.

(02:05):
And you were familiar with this actor?
Correct. Well, okay, so to be fair, I I
I'm not like at first name basiswith oh, by the way, his name is
fucking major Attaway. What a name?
First name? Major second name?
Attaway. What?
An incredible name. I know, right?
I'm not familiar with every single person who's ever done
the genie. He is also not even the genie
that is on the Aladdin like recording, like Broadway
recording. The only reason I am aware that

(02:27):
he was the genie is because I read his name and it rang a bell
in my brain and I said, I think I remember seeing that name when
someone went to go see a Broadway show.
What was it? And I didn't even know it was
Aladdin at the time. And then cut to I went to the
Discord And OK, so by the way, these episodes are being dubbed

(02:51):
long since we had the discord like these episodes were were
like current probably back when we were.
So I want to say maybe Marine Ford or something like that,
something in that in that ballpark or something like.
That Oh, wow, OK dude. The the dub went off like
fucking gangbusters when they started dubbing Wano they like
did not stop. Anyway, so when we were in
Marine Ford give or take and maybe even a little bit later

(03:12):
now I think about it, we might have even been in Fishman
Island. I don't know I I I'm
misremembering but either way I went to the discord and I saw a
dub clip. This is before the episodes
released at the time they released the dub clip of Queen
doing his Zoom in, zoom in song as just like a teaser or
whatever at the time, like on YouTube, like for free.
And I remember being fucking elated and I talked with who at

(03:36):
the time, somebody, a familiar person within our Discord who
explained to me that this personwho voices Queen was once the
genie for an Aladdin production.And then I'm like, that's where
I know this guy from. Yeah.
So that I like, I like, like allthe the cylinders were firing.
I was doing, I was like digging and digging.

(03:56):
I'm like, Oh my fucking God. That's why this is perfect.
That's why everything that I'm hearing right now makes so much
sense. This is why I love this this.
Is why I love this. Oh brother, I you know there are
a few. There are very few performances.
Foxy believe it or not is one ofthem as well.
There are a few performances where I I beg people to listen

(04:18):
to the dubs interpretation of a character and Queen Mean, if
nothing else, is just a fucking delight from start to finish.
I love this guy. I love everything about him.
He's never, he never makes me unhappy when he's on my screen,
even if he's a bad guy. Hell yeah.
So all that inflated ego talk aside, how how did you I might

(04:42):
as well just ask you how you enjoyed meeting Queen, because
that was like the vast majority of the content these episodes
anyway, I'm. Not even going to dance around
it or sugarcoat it. I fucking loved it.
It was great. I had a great time when Queen
was on my screen. Even just the initial intro of
Queen just riding on that fucking sick ass.

(05:02):
What a tricycle, whatever that thing is.
Yeah, but this fucking Mad Max motorcycle chair, whatever the
hell that is. Fucking bad Max look at ass I
that was the first note I wrote down was like you got the
fucking the fire coming off the giant exhaust, the skulls, even
his outfits and all of the wardens and prison guard outfits

(05:25):
is so fucking dumb and Mad Max. I was expecting the guy on the
on the playing bass on the back of the of the giant fucked up
cart to show up. That's what I'm saying dude,
like Daifugo is going to be the guy on the back fucking strum of
the bass at some point here. That's what I'm saying, dude.
Oh, fuck me. Yeah, yeah, I just I just
realized maybe before we go go too deep, I I I in too deep some

(05:49):
41 song here we have yet to do asummary, so let me.
That's true where they are. Let's do a summary, then get
back to Queen. 929 to 932, let'sdo a summary things.
Let's kick off with a bit of a smorgasbord update of the
different groups spread across Wano right now.
Starting off with Sanji, Frankie, Usop in Law, where we

(06:10):
watch them read a newspaper while Sanji dreams about using
his newfound power suit for lessthan savory deeds.
Then the Big Mom Pirates undergoA coup as Pero Sparrow decides
that he's the captain now, whileBig Mom herself makes way for
Udon atop a friendly shark a dial with Kiku and the rest of
the kids in tow. Then we turn up in Udon itself
to watch Luffy bond more with Old Man Keo until he is brutally

(06:33):
put in the dirt by the angry vice warden of the labor camp,
who thinks Keo does not deserve his Dongo tickets.
As that happens, Avip arrives onthe set, none other than Queen
Baby, and he's here to rock us. Meanwhile, we catch up with our
kunuichi as they take a nice relaxing bath day after all the
hard work they put in. Shinobu shows them the etiquette

(06:54):
of mixed gender bathing and all is going great.
Until the Beast Pirates show up that is.
Hawkins begins making a ruckus and Nami is forced to show her
himself when he senses someone is hiding from him.
Unfortunately for Nami, though, the presence Hawkins was
actually sensing was the invisible Saji in the rafters of
the bath house, and their cover is blown for no good reason.
This week is wrapped up with Zorro coming face to face with a

(07:17):
Luke goblin who apparently stoleRiyuma's sword right out from
under him, and now he's got a fight to get back his legendary
drop before AD spawns. That's a great line.
That's actually so far. I saw the I saw all of the
weapons and stuff on the back ofthat guy that he showed that

(07:37):
shows up and I was like huh thisfeels very loot goblin
Borderlands ass looking thing. Got to get back that legendary
drop before it gets clouded by all these fucking garbage.
He'll never be able to see it inthe pile.
All this stupid Commons, it's. Going to have to sift through
every single one one at a time. Yeah.

(08:00):
But anyway, back to Queen. Sorry.
I love Queen. He he's a fantastic guy.
Queen's Incredible. I love it, you know, he I, I, I,
I know I already said his, his like tone range.
I really, I'm, I'm going to do something we haven't done in a
long time. Editor, my, my guy, my, my
lovely Dylan and and Dave, please, if you could, I'm

(08:23):
begging you. There's the in when we first
meet queen. He's just fawning over Kumar
Osaki. Can you just like throw in the
line or he's like, oh, Kumar Osaki, Oh, Orochi doesn't
deserve you. I, I, I don't know if I like, I
literally can't express how could it makes me feel to listen
to this guy do anything, including fighting over a random

(08:45):
fucking character that we haven't seen in 4 episodes.
So fucking good. He just, he just makes me so, so
fucking happy. And then the next thing he does,
of course, when we first beat him, and I love this bit too,
first thing he does when he shows up, he's like, all right,
hey, Babanuki. Oh, by the way, we met so many
Smile Fruit users this set of episodes, right?
So fucking many. We met like, oh wait, hold on.

(09:09):
We met like alpaca man, fucking Difugo babanuki, solitaire crab
man I assume. I don't think he even got a
title card. Now you think about.
Crab man is fucking terrifying. Crab Man is terrifying.
Why is Crab man terrifying? Mostly for his face.
Yeah, the eyes, the stocks. He's got half a head and, and

(09:30):
then it just opens up basically above the nose and turns into
like it looks like there's an open cavity there And then just
out from it sprouts 2 ice crab ice stalks and that's it.
That's the whole face. That's the whole head region of
this man. And I just, I from afar, when we

(09:52):
first see him, I was like, oh, yeah, it's a, it's a crab guy.
And then we get closer and I seemore of what actually makes up
his head and what I just said isit?
And I was like what the fuck is?This.
What is this guy? This.
Guy might have gotten the worst deal of all.
I don't know man, I think he looks fine.

(10:13):
Hippo guy a couple weeks ago waspretty egregious, but this is
bad too. This is pretty bad and also he
can only walk side to side because he's a crab so.
It's another great bit too. I love that bit so much.
You know Rizo did that gag and he was like ah, you can only

(10:34):
walk side to side because you'rea crap at all.
It's so dumb, so fucking stupid,dude.
But I love it, it's great. I love that.
I love that the smile uses are basically just one giant bit
because every single one of themhas some dumb quirk about them.
Really, they should, because what they are at their core is
ridiculous. They're forced animal people,

(10:57):
not even able to control necessarily how much animal is
exhibited by themselves. They just can assume a factory
made fruit laden with microplastics and they get what
they get basically. So the absurdity of what they
actually are, It lends itself sowell to the dumb stupid

(11:18):
shenanigans that they all get upto the Warden.
What's Warden's name again? Babanooki.
Babanooki is the same as the other asshole that we meet at
the beginning of this arc. Who's got a lion on his stomach.
This guy's got an elephant, and the elephant sneezes.
Cannonballs. Yeah.
He does. It's just a cannon with extra

(11:40):
steps. Like we have seen this guy do
nothing else. He's got stack as an you would
expect an elephant to have and then he sneak the elephant on
his stomach sneezes his cannonballs.
Why? Fuck you, that's why.
Fuck you, exactly. Because who cares?
This is one piece. Thank you brother.
I'm glad. I'm glad that you understand.
You know, I will say now that we're here, we've seen so many

(12:02):
of these fucking smile fruit designs.
I am of the mindset that when ODA got to this part of Wano and
he started like drawing all of these smile fruit users, I think
he he like he always knew in theback of his mind that he wanted
them to be imperfect in some way.
But even more than that, I thinkthis is just like his
opportunity to just draw dumb fucking shit for fun.

(12:23):
Absolutely, yeah. He's just like, oh, yeah, yeah,
yeah. They're imperfect devil fruits.
I'm going to give you a an elephant that shoots cannonballs
out of its trunk for a stomach. Yeah.
Just absolutely fucking ridiculous.
Although I I think it's crazy tothink that Baba Nuki or I'm
sorry that the crab guy got the lowest role, I still think it's
the hippo guy by a long shot. Hippo guy definitely got the

(12:45):
lowest role. Crab guy is not far off for me
though. He did lose like the top of his
head in lieu of having stocky eyes.
That is true. That is a little.
Yeah, it's horrifying looking. It is disgusting.
But I I do love how the first thing that we get when when
queen shows up to this, to this gaggle of idiots.
Yeah, you're the new watcher. You tell me.

(13:05):
We have no idea what kind of villain the queen is going to be
before this point. He she just kind of like a guy
that starts coming up singing and you're like, OK, I get it.
He's he's got some memes. That's cool.
And then like, he's like, all right, Babanooki, tell me your
top three biggest problems rightnow.
And then Babanooki goes, well, Eustis, Captain Kid has already
escaped immediately. That's the Queen going like

(13:27):
what? Yeah, a straight Eneru face
queen. And then he returns to normal
and he goes, all right, what's your second one?
And and what was? What was the second one again?
We've lost the keys to all the Cprism stone handcuffs in the
prison. Right, right.
The Seerism handcuffs are gone. Why?

(13:48):
All right. And so what's your number one
problem then? Straw?
Hi, Luffy is currently escaping right now as we speak, and he's
like, what? What go?
Catch him, the dummies, like he's like, what are you doing?
Go fucking get him. Go.
Catch him, you idiots. Go get.
Him. Yeah.
So anyway, that's crazy that told you your three biggest

(14:09):
problems right now. It was so good.
Basically every part of what Queen had going on this week was
fantastic. Fucking what?
Fucking chef's kids. That bit I think maybe was my
favorite of him just returning to normal after.
OK, so that was your third. What's your second worst problem
right now? Just after everything just
returning normal. Just so so fucking good.

(14:32):
Made me laugh out loud. He's such a fucking dork.
I like, I can't even tell you how, especially like when I read
him in in the manga, I'm like, oh boy, what's this motherfucker
going to be like? He's he's the one of the big
leagues in in Kaidos. In fact, if anything, he's like
the first young or I'm sorry, Emperor commander.
I say Yonko something from time to time.
He's the first Emperor's commander that is knowing

(14:54):
anything other than, like, the menacing, unbeatable, sort of
like foundational wall that you get out of like these characters
in the New World or whatever. Queen is literally so aware of
exactly who he is. And I, I respect that he knows
exactly what he's about. Yeah.
And I love that for him. I really do.

(15:15):
Yeah, and I mean, I remember when we we we see him in the the
war room trying to stop the Big Mom Pirates from getting up the
waterfall and he's just you, youget regular villain stuff out of
him then. So when?
You were very underwhelming. Yeah, just normal, normal
villain guy. Underwhelming.
He's yelling at subordinates to get the job done, and they can't

(15:36):
do it, obviously, because they're up against the Big Mom
fucking pirates. So he's just yelling and then
King goes and does his thing, and we largely don't see
anything out of Queen at that point.
So when you were talking about how much you were looking
forward to Queen before, I was like, I mean, I he's got.

(15:57):
Really. This guy.
This guy, like he's got knowledge that I don't know
about. So I'm sure there's some reason
for Brennan to be so excited about it.
And, you know, I could take someguesses at what Brendan likes
about this guy because he's probably going to be goofy and,
you know, really doesn't need toeven get past that.
That's usually enough to to entertain enough to.

(16:20):
Yeah, that that's true. But then you then you talk.
I think you did also mention at the time too, that that the
voice actor was involved as wellbecause we were having some
other discussion, I think about voice actors and I think you
brought, I don't know if you necessarily maybe you didn't
bring up Queen. I'm just kind of conflating the
two ideas, but I remember you mentioning beforehand being
excited about a voice actor. I have individually hyped up

(16:43):
Queens voice actor and simultaneously hyped up the idea
that there is a voice actor who is voiced by a Broadway
performer. Yeah, I don't know if I've ever
put them together before this evening.
If I have, call me a dirty liar.I don't know.
But God damn dude, they're. But but now that we're here, I'm
I'm, I'm having a time. This is great.
I love Queen. I want I can't wait to

(17:04):
experience more of whatever the this sumo wrestling thing is.
And I just I, I'm I'm having a blast.
I'm having a blast with it. I will say too, to put yourself
in like the shoes of a guy who was reading the manga week to
week Once Upon a time. I even like the way that the,
the, the, the unraveling of thislike plot element is going

(17:26):
through. Because I remember at one point
right after Queen was introducedand you brought like the, the
sumo wrestling thing down. And I was reading week to week
to week. The way that 931 ends, I think
was like the last chapter going into a break week at the time.
And it was like Luffy being like, hey, what if I just
challenge you and beat you? Then I get to go free, right?
Or at least like that's kind of like how it happened in like the

(17:47):
manga, whatever. And in my mind I'm like, oh, OK,
so this is how we're going to basically destabilize the Kaido
crew is we're going to we're going to beat each commander
like in A1V1 early and then eventually work our way up to
Kaido. And then going into this 932,
which is where we pick off next.It's Queen going like, no, no,
you're going to go through my shit.

(18:07):
Great. Yes, yes, much better.
Much better. What if we had a saw level sumo
wrestling tournament instead? I like, I like saw sumo
wrestling so much better, actually.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, it's, it's breaking
into some more interesting fighting plot elements.
So I will I, I have to ask, you know, Luffy has a Eureka moment

(18:30):
when he thinks back to training with Rayleigh one more time.
It is funny. Every single time he wants to
get better, he's. It's like, what would Rayleigh
do? And then he just plays a
flashback in his head and he's like, Oh yeah.
Yeah, what would Rayleigh do? Probably somewhere along the
lines of beat ass, you know? Just hit harder.

(18:50):
No. I'm a little curious if any part
of that struck you as interesting or if he has figured
anything specific out that you think was given to us or if
there's just like another like brand new like hockey magic that
we, I don't know about kind of like how a future site kind of
was Once Upon a time. Yeah, I don't, I don't know what
Luffy garnered from that short flashback we did see of Rayleigh

(19:15):
doing a Hadouken on the Elephant, and I don't know what
he was supposed to get from it, but I suppose we'll see.
Maybe it'll be something along the lines of using movements
efficiently, not trying to take wild haymakers, and like
conserving energy as much as possible.
Perhaps just seeing Rayleigh's nonchalance about just hitting

(19:37):
that elephant with the energy beam, something along those
lines. So hold on you.
You said energy beam, so hold on.
I I I need to clarify. So you think Kai blasts are
coming into one piece here in the near future?
Yeah. Well yeah I can just I can only
assume that at some point they will unlock the 8 inner gates
and will now have key in one piece so.

(19:57):
Oh baby, I love it. That's what I wanted to hear.
We're in the, the, I don't know,like Edo era Japan arc now.
So I'm sure someone somewhere along the lines is going to talk
about, you know, inner chakra orsomething with with all the
ninja and kunuichi running around.
Nah, they're just going to startshooting Kamehameha waves out of

(20:18):
their hands. Dude, come on.
That works too. I mean, I'll take that, you
know, like you'll take that. Brother, all this time you're
going to do commandment waves. Yeah, let's just blatantly RIP
off Dragon Ball Z now. Brother I, I'm going to be so
fucking for real if One Piece ever just chose to do Dragon
Ball Z esque fucking blasts. I don't.
Well, I guess I shouldn't say that because to be fair, Zorro

(20:41):
already throws A slashing move with a with an energy beam
attached, essentially. Right, but he does it with a
sword or something, so he. Does it with a sword, which is a
little cooler. It's a little.
It means you need a tool to do it.
I don't know, I think. Right.
I think if a motherfucker can just like, do a Kamehameha wave
adjacent attack, I would get annoyed very quickly.
Although I guess Keizer can kindof do that anyway, can he?

(21:01):
I I mean, that's kind of, that is kind of Keizer's thing.
And we did watch Rayleigh just do it again in a flashback, so.
Maybe the line in the sand that I'm drawing is not the line I
need to draw. Maybe we've already crossed that
one and you need a new line. Yeah, I think I need a new line.
But, you know, but but before Queen graced our screens, we we

(21:22):
did get other small bits of details.
We we learned about Heo Heo, little old man Heo.
He's. Yeah.
Although to be fair, like with that character design, was there
any doubt in your mind that he was a little more important
than? No, I mean, obviously he was
going to be somewhat important. Honestly I don't think I
mentioned it in the recording wedid last week but it in my head

(21:43):
I was thinking when are they going to reveal that he was on
Rogers crew is basically what I'm waiting.
For you're waiting for the Rogers crew reveal.
Yeah, I, I mean, honestly, whenever there's an old person
that's kind of badass that comesacross us, it's like, Oh yeah,
they used to run with Gold Rogerfor like a summer or something.
They did an internship. Did an internship, yeah, yeah.
Luffy, like in like happenstancehe just goes like, man, you

(22:06):
know, if Raley were here, he'd know exactly what to do.
And then then old and he goes like Rayleigh.
Did you say Rayleigh as in? As a dark.
Silvers Rayleigh. Oh yeah, I know.
That's better. As in Dark King Rayleigh.
He's like, yeah, do you know him?
Yeah, He's one of my best friends.
I was on his crew. Like, of course.
Like it? Of course.

(22:26):
Yeah, oh dude, ask him about thetime when we were in the North
Blue and I fucking threw up all in the bushes outside that one
bar, he'll know what I'm talkingabout.
Dude, it was, it was honestly like so crazy.
It's I had eight tankards of beer within 30 minutes, all
because Cole Rodger dared me to.Do you know I don't back down?

(22:47):
You don't know what a rager is until you've actually drowned an
entire town in liquor, man. Yeah, it was only a matter of
time until he became important. And but I'm, I'm glad, you know,
that we we got a little bit moreback story on him.
And to hear that, I mean, it's all it's, it's also just funny
again, this is how this is how One Piece just treats old people

(23:09):
or aging in general. Yeah.
Like you see that You see the outline of him in a couple of
episodes and then you get an actual what he looked like 20
years ago in his heyday. And he's very different 15 times
larger 20 years ago than he is right now, just just super
shrunk into into himself as the years went by.

(23:33):
So it. Is it is so silly that he's
literally the size of shooting Maru in his like in his heyday
flashback like basically like one for one and then now he's.
Yoda size? Yeah, the size he is now, old
him could just pop in his mouth like a snack.

(23:56):
Like actually though. Yeah, the dongo that he's eating
right now, that's the rough scale.
Like that's what current him would look like in the hands of
20 years ago him he would look like a piece of dongo.
Actually, that's pretty close. Actually, I don't.
I don't even disagree with that.That way you'd be pretty close.
That's not far. Old Dongo Hyo, that's his new

(24:18):
name. Yeah, so of of course this old
guy Hyo is going to end up beingslightly more important.
We find out that he was once thethe Yakuza leader, which now
Kiyoshiro is the current yakuza leader, which we we don't know
much more about Kiyoshiro. He we just kind of like accept
that he killed Komarosaki a couple weeks ago, rather a
couple days ago and no one, no one has anything more to say

(24:39):
about it. So.
I think it's like a literally the next day.
I think we're, I think we've moved on one day from that.
OK, maybe that's true too. I don't know, that could also be
false. It was just the vibe that I was
getting. It just felt like we snapped to
the next day and everyone went off.
Fuck. Komorozaki's dead and everyone
knows except Queen. Queen has no clue.

(24:59):
Queen does not know. Queen has no clue.
I don't want to be the one to tell Queen.
You certainly won't catch me telling Queen either that's
that's for somebody else to findout.
Yeah, dude, I, I am fucking withthat.
I am fucking with Queen man. He's I do see how far those eyes
are popping out of his head. I don't want the smoke.
I really don't. Did you see all those muscles?
Did you see? I don't want that he's.
So round. He's a ball of muscle, brother.

(25:21):
I loved when Luffy called him Balloon too, that was funny.
He's seeing a kindred spirit. He do be looking like a balloon.
Gum gum balloon, the person. You know, you know what else
about about Queen? He's he's got a really cool
design. I don't know if you're familiar
with the French comic, the the the the adventure of like
asterisks and Obi leaks or something like that.
No, OK, well, asterisks and Obi leaks is very famous French

(25:45):
comic and it stars like 2 Vikinglooking motherfuckers.
I I might even look up a picturefor you at all searches I
described. But asterisks is like like a
small guy. He he's like the same size as
like Keo basically. And meanwhile the other guy Obi
Leaks is very much not. And let me just show you a
picture of this guy. Yeah, I got it.

(26:07):
Hold on. I got to put it on the right.
I mean he he has the he has the look or the outfit of an old
timey wrestler. He's got that like singlet with
the deep U on it. Which ODA Doobie loving
wrestlers? Yeah, he's apparently a very big
wrestling fan, which I was unaware of.
Interesting. So this is Asterix and Obie

(26:28):
Leaks. I just put it in the chat.
Okay, yeah. So he's very much based on the
guy on the right, but. This does look familiar.
But then also kind of uses the facial hair of asterisks.
The little guy, Sure. Very interesting.
But yeah, he's very clearly a design from this very famous
French comic. Yeah, I can see it, definitely.
And the little dog down there. Yeah.

(26:49):
What's the little dog's name? Fuck me dude, I have no idea.
Come on, Brendan. Ask of the rock you're I
honestly, I had to reach to remember OB leaks.
I don't know why I couldn't remember OB leaks.
It took me a minute it. Took a hot sack.
I'm an idiot, but fuck I'll ask for.

(27:09):
All Rosalie back to Queen, just start talking about him again.
All roads lead back to Queen. Oh, and then Rizo, of course,
was on his little his little side adventure, which I I did
love. First of all, I just love the
fact that he was like, you know,talking to crab man, the crab
man in fact, of course. And you know, I don't, I'm very
interested to know what the truth was in this scene, because

(27:31):
in the dub, Rizzo puts on like abad guy voice.
But I'm not even kidding. He sounds just like the guy who
plays Crab man. So I don't know if the guy who
voiced Crab Man just did the lines as Rizzo or if the guy who
voices Rizzo just put on a bad guy voice and voiced both crab
man and fake Crab Man Rizzo. I don't know, my brain fucking

(27:54):
hurts. But it was a great bit actually,
as he's like telling a crap man guy like, hey, you know, if we
would have lost this key fuckingqueen would would be at our
throats and all of us would be fucking dead.
And the crap man's like, yeah, dude, you're I got you.
Thank you. I appreciate.
Proceeds to steal the key. Good job, Rizo.
Not a bad move. Yeah, you did great.
Didn't end up needing it becausea little bit later.

(28:18):
Well, we learned a couple of things.
Number one, apparently they still had the key to Luffy's
handcuffs because they proceed to take off the handcuffs.
So Rizzo was a big dumb idiot and got the wrong keys somehow
#1 and #2 well, they didn't needthe handcuff key because they

(28:38):
now they have a new thing. They've got neck collars.
They took the cuffs off Raizo. Yeah, poor Raizo.
You know, he did succeed in doing one thing, though.
They they found their old friendKawamatsu.
Indeed they did. And, and yeah, he this, this is
this is at a moment when Raizo'skind of at his low point with

(29:00):
what's going on because he's found out that Luffy has been
taken. And he's sitting behind these
couple of boxes just sort of wondering what his next move
should be. And he's standing in front of
Kawamatsu's cage, his, his cell.And he he just goes, Prizo, is
that, is that you? And then and we turn around and

(29:21):
Rizo gets a better look and it'sKawamatsu.
And we still don't know what Kawamatsu looks like.
Yeah, very, very interesting choice for ODA and the animator.
Just continue, like shrouding him a mystery.
Like, OK, we get it. Like he's he's a friend of ours.
We don't, we don't need to make him a shadow anymore.
We can just show him. Yeah, he's a friend.
Yeah, clearly this guy is an ally and we kind of knew that
already from the beginning. We could have guessed, but

(29:42):
whatever it's I don't know. We're we're we're holding up
this reveal for some reason. And I don't I don't know why,
but I guess it'll be revealed ata later date or something.
Yeah, it's a little silly. I mean, I I'm looking forward to
when we officially meet the guy,I guess.

(30:02):
But like it is a little silly that we're that we're going to
keep pulling this one through. We could do the Jimbei bit where
we just meet up chain or we meetchained up Jimbei back in
impaled down. But we don't do that bit here.
We we just just sort of hang outand recognize.
He's just shrouded in darkness. He's just shrouded in darkness.
All right. Well, whatever.
That's fair. Do you order?
I don't know. I'm excited to see him see

(30:23):
what's going on with this guy. He's clearly been in here for a
minute. 13 years, in fact 13. Whole years and.
Consuming poisonous fish. Yeah, basically never getting
good fish nor getting bones to spit at people to stab them with
either, so. Except the one time he got bones
and instead of using it as a as a key to get out he was like Nah

(30:45):
this is better as a blow dart. Yeah, I'm just going to fuck
this guy up because I feel like.It's like what the fuck Like.
I don't know, I kind of respected.
You probably you probably shouldhave saved that by guy like,
come on. Let the spike run through.
Him just a little silly, but youknow, I mean other other than
Queen gracing our squeens or squeens screens.

(31:08):
Queen gracing us Queens. Queens Queen gracing our
squeens. Queen.
Queen. Oh my God, I'm losing my ability
to talk. Other than that the the prison
is happening at prison pace. We're now in the middle of of
our own little new sumo rats. We're doing sumo rat.
God what? Why can't I speak sumo?
Wow. Match Round 2 is what I am

(31:30):
trying to say with my words. It can't be done, people.
Words are hard. I know words are hard.
So we're doing sumo match round two this time with 100% more
queen and I'm living with livingfor it.
The rest of the team at large, you know, they're they're,
they're doing things. There's Zorro, who like you
said, he got his legendary stolen, so now he's trying to

(31:51):
grab it from the loot goblin. I I do like this side plot where
Oh yeah, yeah, Zorro has no ideawhere to go ever.
But if you steal one of his swords, oh buddy, you will sniff
your ass out till the end of theearth.
He will follow you down like a Bloodhound after a fresh kill.
You are fucked. You your ass is grass.

(32:15):
Just like it's like the same time when the Tintata from Chris
Rosa stole one of his swords or a couple of his swords.
Yeah. And then he was like, I'll
fucking get you. Like he never, he couldn't.
He never got off the scent. Soon as you steal a sword, your
ass is grass. He's a Bloodhound.
Yeah, you, you've got a target on your back and it was great.

(32:37):
Very strange guy though, I wonder what his like deal is and
why he's just stealing a bunch of swords and blades.
Because he did have a whole ass backpack of weapons.
Oh yeah, I don't know. And he's dressed like a ninja of
some kind too. So I don't know if this is just
a hobby of his to collect weapons.
But the he also to to specifically pointed out because

(33:02):
we've mentioned that the sword was stolen.
It this was Riyuma's sword, and this guy recognized it as such
and stole it specifically to return it to Riyuma's grave,
because presumably somebody involved with Moria stole it at
the time so that they could giveit to the reanimated Ryuma.

(33:24):
Well, folks, I guess this is where we're we're we're giving
sushi back. You know we're never going to
have it again. Never.
Again. It, it was a good run.
Sushi is, is no longer a part ofthe Zorro 3 sword collection.
You know, I, I, I hope you couldsay your goodbyes, Christian.
We're just good staying here. It'll be missed, but I'm excited
for him to start using that replica of Mihawk's cross dagger

(33:46):
that he wears around his neck. That's going to be pretty
exciting for me, I think. Yeah, Yeah, right.
That's going to be really exciting.
When he starts doing 3 sword style moves but with this tiny
little fucking dagger, Said two regular size katanas.
He stops using the he stops using the the Wato Ichimonji,

(34:07):
the white one for his mouth blade and starts using the
fucking knife blade as his mouth.
Yeah. Way more efficient that way.
Although maybe it would be funnier if the big blade was in
his mouth and a tiny blade was in his hand.
Yeah, maybe is the funnier bit. Yeah, I think in the mouth more
efficient, funnier if he's stillusing the the water.

(34:27):
Which emoji in his mouth and uses the dagger has a regular
sword hand. Yeah, imagine, imagine, imagine.
What was it 1000 worlds? He's spinning the two the 2000
worlds. Yeah, he's he's spinning the one
normal sized world. Like the tiny knife for the big
sword. So fucking stupid.

(34:50):
They have two different rotationspeeds.
The little knife is like going. Oh yeah.
And the big blade's like. Yeah, twin propeller.
Twin propeller, baby. He's a helicopter.
He's a fucking helicopter. He starts taking off backwards
in the other direction. Just starts playing.
Or no, you go forward. Oh, that'd be shoveled.
That'd be so funny. Alright, I and then in addition

(35:14):
to that, in addition to Zorro side adventure, we we cut to the
girls in the bathhouse. Well, I should say the girls and
apparently Sanji because he's a piece of shit.
Yeah, what else is new? We we knew this is coming,
although maybe we didn't. Obviously he said he was going
to do it, but did we think we were going to double down on the
bit so quickly? So quickly no.

(35:34):
And I guess I'm a fool for that one.
Yeah, here you are. A little bit of a fool for that
one. I knew it was going to happen
eventually when he was, when we had that whole sequence of him
talking about his, his childhooddream of having invisibility and
all of that. And when he, when he first put
the suit on, he was marvelling at.
I was like, it's only a matter of time until he actually acts

(35:55):
on that. But it happened so fast.
Am I surprised a little bit? Should I be surprised?
Probably not. Probably not.
I'm annoyed that we're here. I, I, I, that I have to talk
about this. It it serves no purpose other
than so. This being that he would
invisible to sneak into the bathhouse to if he could take it.
Yeah. So earlier, earlier in the we,

(36:16):
we start this set of episodes with the that group having
escaped and they're chilling in Ebisu where Zorro previously
was, because apparently Zorro's not allowed to be in the main
plot. He is the DE plot at this point.
Facts he is. He is not allowed to be in the
main plot at large, no. Which is crazy given that he is

(36:40):
the samurai guy in the samurai land.
So I do I this is this is OK fornow.
Like this whole, like, weird side plot thing.
If he had spent any more time inEbisu with the other people
laughing, I might have been annoyed.
But I'm glad. So I'm glad we've moved on to
something else. This is at least funny.
He's gotten his sword stolen. There's no explanation for this,

(37:02):
by the way. We don't see this happen.
It is just told to us. Yeah.
Zorro got the the, the what's the what's the old guy's name
that he was travelling with? Oh, that's a tono Yasu.
Yeah, so Yasu, it just up in hislife, it says to the our group
of four, here he goes, yeah, Zora was here, but he got his

(37:23):
sword stolen. So now he's gone and everyone
just goes huh, what he got, he got a singular sword stolen.
OK And then Usopp and Frankie have their own little aside
where they're like, he probably just got lost or something like
this isn't that's not really what happened.
He's just fucking lost forever. And no, we find out four

(37:45):
episodes later that yes, in he got sushi stolen and now he has
to fight for it back. So that's that.
Anyway, we get we get the other,the other four in Ebisu.
They're chilling. They're they're just kind of
catching up with each other. They get a newspaper about
what's going on with Komarosaki being dead, Laws worried about

(38:06):
his crew, and then Sanji is off in the corner daydreaming about
how he's going to use the raid suit to spy on women.
Yeah, so then we cut to this part where we now have Shinobu,
Robin and Nami in the bath house, which already in and of
itself is a level of fanservice I did not need.
Yeah, we, we, we also got plentyof fanservice in in this moment

(38:28):
in time, just so we're clear. Yeah, there was and in.
Case you were worried. Yeah, like if you were unsure
whether or not we got we're in abath house and we got scenes of
Robin and Nami barely clothed, then rest assured there was
plenty of that. Rest assured.
Not only was there plenty of it,it became a minor part of the
plot for Nami's towel to fall off because we needed that too.

(38:52):
Yeah. So because how else were we
going to know that Sanji was there?
Right now can I will say, and I,I want to say one bit that I do
like and I don't know if it was a double dip for both the sub
and dub. I assume it's for both.
But at one point after the toweldrops for Nami, which you know,
obviously is like a, a very lackluster gag there when Sanji
becomes not invisible because ofhis Nosebleed blah blah blah

(39:14):
blah. He says.
I have been struck by the the firmest happiness punch ever or
whatever. So fun fact, the last do you
remember back in Alabasta when they were in bath houses and
then Nami was like, oh, sure, I'll take my towel off.
It's going to cost you guys a bunch of berries.
And she, she actually named her dropping her towel as happiness

(39:36):
punch for no fucking reason. I don't know why.
I do remember this. OK.
So I, I simply would like to point out that it is kind of
funny that we redrew that gap egg at least report the name and
that is the only credit I will give to it is that is the end of
the credit being given in this moment in time.

(39:57):
Sure. Sorry, sorry.
I do not remember if that was part of the sub so.
Maybe it's possible I guess, butI.
Kudos to the writers if they if they actually pulled that
fucking joke out of the script from Alabasta.
I'm proud of you. You guys did.
You guys did your homework. Yeah, I, I want to say I would

(40:19):
believe that they probably did it, but I just didn't remember
at the time of watching. So, yeah.
So this all comes about because Hawkins and Drake and companies
show up and they're looking still for Soba mask, which has
somehow LED them to this bathhouse and oh, actually,
sorry, Drake is still looking for soba mass.

(40:41):
Hawkins is on a mission that to to look for people with the
tattoo on their ankles because that plot has been discovered.
Yes, which I just got to say took them fucking long enough
because because a tattoo on the ankle, like it's plainly
visible. You're like there's just a bunch
of people walking around with the same tattoo on the same part

(41:02):
of their ankle. Like this isn't our time period
where people get the same tattoos that they saw of, you
know, of their you know, they'renot getting straw hats tattooed
on their forearms because they love one piece here.
This is Ito Japan where nobody except Yakuza has tattoos and

(41:23):
now there's just a bunch of random commoners walking around
all with the same TikTok tattoo on their ankle.
Like how We're not going to figure this part out dude.
At least hide it somewhere that's underneath clothing.
Like I get the idea is to just be walking around town, see
someone with the tattoo and be like, oh, that's an ally right
there, but come on, have some other thing for that part, like

(41:46):
have a piece of clothing or I don't, I don't know, like a like
how you wear your I I I shouldn't say hair because they
all wear the hair the same, but like how you wear something, be
different. Don't make it a plainly obvious
black ink tattoo just out in theopen.
Very poor planning on somebody'spart.

(42:07):
I don't know whose idea was in the in the Revolution planning
committee, but they need to stepdown.
Somebody needs to take away their position.
I couldn't agree more. And you know, it's it is really
funny that like in this scene, Ishinobu is like, oh Dang it,
they know about the tattoos. There must be a mole somewhere
within our ranks. I'm like, well.

(42:29):
I don't think there is. There might be.
I mean, there probably is for the sake of the plot.
There probably is, right? There doesn't need to have been.
It's like, I'm going to be honest, you know, Boo, I don't
know if this one required that much Charlie Day energy to
figure out. No.
I I really don't. No, this is not Pepe.

(42:49):
Not at all. This is not Pepe.
This is wow. It's really bizarre that a lot
of random people all have the same tattoo on their ankle and
literally no other tattoos existin the same location for any
other person. No, so stupid, So so just
nonsensical. Yeah, it's, it's a little funny.
But that being said, OK, so thatis the the most important piece

(43:11):
of feedback that we did get in this set of episodes.
So it's in addition to that we got, I'm sorry, most important
VAC we got during the bath housesequence.
Like the other thing is that both Hawkins and Drake are also
from the North Blue and they were also fanboying over
fucking. This is the only acceptable
piece of Sanji's current stature.
Is that every dude he comes across from the north blue?

(43:35):
Fucking fanboys so hard over him.
They're like, Oh my God, it's fucking stuff, black dude.
It's just like the comics. It's him.
It's it's stealth black from thefrom the comics.
It's German 66. It's him.
It's it's really funny that likeit's basically them seeing, you
know, like Batman, but in real life.
Like it's actually fucking Batman.

(43:56):
Yeah, what the fuck? It's just, it's just really
Batman walking around. That is, it is really funny how
that works. But so there's a mole and that
Laws crew, as in Beppo and Penguin and the other guy, I
forget his name. Was it an orca?
It was like SU Chi or something like that.
Did he have a real name? Is that just Japanese for Orca?

(44:17):
It might be actually it might bethere probably is an orca on his
crew to be totally fair. But those three have been
captured leading to law more than likely going to have to try
to like, you know, save or find his crew or whatever.
Yeah. So the question that we have
now, and this is a question I posed to you, do we have a mole
mole within the ranks? Or is it literally just laws

(44:39):
crew mates that's that's snitched?
Because obviously we have to think in terms of one piece And
believe it or not, Christian, can I tell you the solution to
this is not that they snuffed out the the fact that everyone
has the same tattoo as being a little SUS.
Yeah, I of course not. OK.
I mean, I think my normal guess would be that there is a mole

(45:01):
somewhere in this organization, yes.
However, posing the idea about Laws crew having been stolen, I
would also not put it past this show to have to like have it be
that out of Beppo accidentally spilled the beans because he was
sleep talking about it or something like that I don't

(45:23):
know. Or he like he got an extra
anchovy from one of the guards and just accidentally let it
slip, whatever the case is. You think it's being relegated
to a gag? You don't even think it was like
a serious, like, omission? Yeah.
Well, I that's where I'm like, if it if it comes down to Law's
crew, if I'm going to put forth that it was Law's crew, it comes

(45:44):
out as a gag. OK If I wanted to be a more
serious thing is that there's actually a mole somewhere in the
organization or like 1 of Orochis ninja or something
figured out wormed their way outof.
Sure. Somebody that they captured and
just interrogated about the tattoo like they now, now I'm
turning into a gag again in my head.

(46:05):
Like one of one of them would just went on the street and did
one of those stupid YouTube videos where they like hold a
mic to someone's face and like, where'd you get that tattoo
from? And then you know, except it has
gone wrong in parentheses on theend of it.
Because then they kidnapped thatguy, beat the shit out of him
and just get the answer out thatway or something.
I don't know. Wow.
This went this went very dark, very quickly.

(46:29):
It went from dark to gag back todark again.
Shit son of a bitch. So so then you you you, you
presume that it's just some goonfrom the enemy side infiltrated
the ranks, got the Intel and is feeding it back to to a roti or
the enemy team He like. Do you think that any ally you
do know would be a snitch? Like willingly, like, just a

(46:50):
genuine fucking double agent. I would say probably if you're
going to, if you're, if there's going to be a mole in the
organization that we already know about it had, it would have
the most impact. I would like there.
There needs to be a character that holds the most, maybe,
well, maybe not even Moat the most, but some level of shock
value. So if it's just a, like I said
earlier, that I wonder if it's one of Orochi's ninja that just

(47:13):
infiltrated, but that feels lesslikely to me.
Yeah. Yeah.
It's, I would believe more so that somebody we already know is
bad. Well then who brother?
What the hell? You're just going to say this
and it with no proof? Where's the pudding?
Well, OK, I mean, this is this is all happening live.
Like I haven't cooked this yet. OK, OK.
Yeah, yeah. Let's let's let it simmer a

(47:33):
little more here, OK? Who have we, who could it
potentially be? I don't think it's, I don't
think it's any of our pirates. OK, so we don't.
Think, I don't think it's a law,I don't think it's a heart
pirate, I don't think it's a Straw hat.
I mean, it's not going to be a strong.

(47:54):
I'm just going to cut that out altogether.
Dude, I, I don't know, brother, I think, I think Brooke has been
playing both sides for a long time.
I, I don't, I don't know, I think I've got a little too deep
into the frog oil sale thing andhe's, he's, he's.
He's like, guys, I, I can't let this business go.
You don't understand. This is my calling guys.
This is what I was made to do. Kind of offered me a nice stand

(48:17):
downtown Flower Capital. It's got great locale.
Everybody walks by there on a daily.
Daily basis, you don't understand me.
I've, I've, I've got like franchise offers, like we're
going, we're going globally. You haven't been out on the
streets like I have all this fucking time and you got, you
just don't get it. So bye, bye.

(48:39):
Yeah, and then then Frankie goeslike you can buy how much cola
with that money and. Now it's a pyramid scheme.
Now. Now it's a pyramid scheme.
He gives Frankie a frog oil starter kit that he has to then
sell to five of his friends. I really like where this is
going I think. I think Usopps the fucking mole
for sure. I think Usopp might be in the
mole. Actually, I think I'm.
I think I'm all in you're. Just all in on Usopp being the

(49:00):
mole. You got no other options.
OK, if it's not if it's I don't think it's a hard pirate.
They've all been captured. I don't think any of them have
been turned per SE that like this quickly.
I guess that basically just leaves that leaves any you know,
the people we know from Wano andI I I mean, I guess it leaves

(49:25):
also the people from Zoe. OK, Zoe has been pretty.
They've been pretty quiet, like Dog Storm and Cat Vipers groups.
Brother, remember that time thatthey almost let their entire
nation die to save one big headed ninja?
Any of them are no longer ride or die.

(49:46):
How did Jack get there? Well, that's all.
It's also a great question. I'm not saying that's not a good
question. Yeah, I mean, it could be.
It could be one of them, like Jack got there and I I don't
remember if he had a poem, not apoem.
Cliff, help me out here. What's the what's the risk
things? No, no.
A Beaver card. Viva card.
No, not a Beaver card. Well, I think maybe he did have
a Beaver card too, but I'm talking about the the things you

(50:08):
got to calibrate that Nami has. Oh, log pose.
Log pose. Thank you.
The pose, yes, I don't remember if that was ever actually
explained right now off top of my head.
So right now I'm just going to say, you know, somebody,
somebody spilled the beans from,from, from Zoe and, and, and
maybe that was how it went. Damn so you you think there was
1 fucking rat mink in the mix? What if it is just like a rat

(50:29):
mink? That would be that would be so
on the nose and I'd probably love that, honestly.
You'd be like. Actually this is perfect.
There is the there's the mouse smile guy, but that's not quite
what we're talking about. Rat Mink.
We're going to, we're going to meet one rat Mink at some point,
and then he's going to have likethat very clear villain energy.
Yeah, you're going to be like, it's him.

(50:51):
It's mother fucker. He's going to like after every
everything he says, he's going to give some stupid sly smile
like out of the side of his mouth and you're going to
everyone's going to be like, that guy's got to be evil,
right? This guy is this guy is evil.
He's a villain, like we could all agree.
His top eyelids are always half clothes, like, you know the
look. Yeah, I don't, you know, I OK,
I'm my final answer is I don't know who it's going to be, but

(51:15):
I'm thinking, I'm thinking it's someone from Wano, OK.
Do do you have? Someone we know from Wano.
Do do you have like a narrowed focused idea because you can't
you can't be putting my boy Keena Moen on the on the
chopping block. He's he's ride or die for sure.
No my. God dude.
If it if it was though. Dude, if it was.
Talk about the fucking long game.

(51:36):
Kenny Moen's playing 6D chess with this one.
That's what I'm saying dude. He only wanted to protect quote
UN quote protect Momonos case sothat he could always have an eye
on him. Yeah, dude, I look, that's not
off the table. I for any of them, really.
Any of those what, four of them?Him Rizo Kiku Shit What's what's

(51:58):
what's the painters? Guys, Conjuro.
Conjuro. Conjuro.
Conjuro. Yeah, like any of them.
You know that could. Bro you you.
You think one of those dudes would actually come this far
only to be the the fucking mold?No way, dude.
Look dude, I've been calling Conjuro A villain since the
beginning. Anyway, first treatment of the
fucking paint animals. Oh, Oh, no, no, Conjuro, no.

(52:22):
I might as well stick with that,to be honest with you.
You're. Like actually, old memes never
die. Conjuro's the villain.
Conjuro villain all the way through.
He's if he treats, if he treats animals like that, painting
animals like that, I bet he'd give up the revolution.
I can't wait for him to like drop a wig, take his fucking
face mask off and be like it wasme.

(52:43):
I'm the villain all along. It was me the whole time.
Of course. What if it's all painted on in
the 1st place? Anyway?
He. Just he like a little like a
little like a like a Grambling comes out of like a painted
dude. He he paints.
Wait a minute. Hold on.
I'm cooking now. He paints.
He can paint like a fake body that he pilots like a Meg.

(53:05):
And then he comes out and he reveals himself as the rat mink
all along. Oh, shit.
Wait a minute. This is perfect.
It's like it's like a smaller version of of cracker.
It's just crack. Where the cool version of him

(53:25):
was on the inside. It's just cracker with extra.
Steps, yeah. It's literally just Cracker with
extra steps. But that's why he can never draw
for shit, because he's drawing with a puppet.
Yeah, if he were to draw with his drawing hand.
Oh brother, brother, watch out that.

(53:45):
'D be. That'd be fine art right there.
Oh wait, this is good. I like this.
I'm writing this down in my notes.
Oh fuck, that's awesome. I can't wait to figure out who
the that Conjuro was secretly A puppet puppeted by.
Conjuro was a mech the whole time.
He was a mech the whole time. Oh fuck that's great, thank you.

(54:06):
I feel satisfied with those answers.
I feel satisfied too. Thanks for dragging that out of
me. That was that was awesome.
Like other than that, the only other big things that happened
centers around Big Mom and the Big Mom Pirates.
Oh, the Big Mom pirates are alsohaving like a low key like
mutiny. No, not mutiny.
They're just like discussing it with.

(54:26):
One man, it's a one man mute knee.
Right, I guess it is a one man mute.
It is. It is interesting that after
snack was defeated by what's hisname Ruge or whatever he was
like immediately demoted from a sweet commander.
But Katakuri loses to to Luffy and still the rest of his
siblings are like Nah Katakuri is definitely the next to like

(54:47):
run the shit he's. Like, yeah, he's.
Definitely next in line. What the fuck?
I really kind of thought that itwas going to be each one of
them. Like arguing that they would be
the best leader, but the fact that it's literally just the one
man Pero Sparrow being like ah yes of course it's going to
become the Pero Sparrow pirates.And then Daifuku in the side
goes like, I don't know who you think you are, but it's

(55:07):
literally kind of Curry. It's like absolutely kind of
Curry. I don't know who you thought you
were. I don't know what kind of like
game you think you're playing, what world you're in, and then
Pero Sparrow's like, but I'm theoldest.
Yeah, shut up, Lefty. Wow, take it easy bro.

(55:29):
That's right, I went there. It's.
Awesome. Oh fuck.
Jeez Christian over here with the fucking with the Raz dude.
I hate pero Sparrow. Pero Sparrow's SO.
Stupid I obviously I hate Pero Sparrow as a character.
I really like Pero Sparrow the character.
Like I'm sorry, I should say thesame word twice and expect

(55:50):
people to think I mean two different.
Things. Yeah, let's expand a little.
I hate Pero Sparrow as a character in this anime.
I really think he's a funny attitude kind of guy.
Yeah, and his voice actor does really well with him too.
That. So I have a soft spot for him.
Every single time he says something like Licky Licky or we
got a lickety split and I'm likeyou, you fucker.

(56:12):
Yeah, it's good bits. It's good bits.
Yeah. He's just, he's just a big
character. It's the same reason I like
Foxy. Sure.
Yeah, Foxy's dialed up a little bit more, but I got you.
OK, that's fair too. I'll give you that.
So the the Big One Pirates are having that and then Big Mom
herself and Kiku and the kids are on their way over to yeah,
Kiku and the kids, great band name by the way, are on their
way over to UDA. Kiku and the kids.

(56:34):
That's exactly what I was thinking.
They're on their way to Udaan, presumably to to wreck some
shit. It is funny that ballet have Big
Mom with amnesia and Queen's already there.
Yeah, there. There's going to be some some
rabble rousing, I'm sure, in thenear future.
It's only a matter of time. Yeah, I I don't know which way I

(56:57):
like this going. I in my head there are two
versions of Udon where one Luffyjust lays waste to this sumo
tournament and it beats everyone, beats Queen eventually
then jets out of there with Keo and I guess the rest of the
prisoners maybe impaled down style and and and then gets

(57:19):
there or leaves there before Kiku and the kids show up.
Kiku and the kids. Kiku and the kids, and then they
have to go. They throw their hands up and
go, ah, fuck, well, what did we come all the way over here for?
And then they have to go somewhere else, or they show up
in time for Luffy to be there. And then we have this probably

(57:41):
big bomb going on a rampage here, probably in some sort of
light hunger pang because she's still famished and Udon is
apparently a far enough journey away that this is a problem or
probably going to become a problem at some point.
So there's like 2 versions, I don't know which I don't know

(58:02):
which one. I I kind of dislike the idea of
these wild goose chases. So in this case, like if Luffy
were to get out of there before they get there, this feels like
like I don't want us just running around to all these
different places and people conveniently not being there.
Like Zorro was supposed to be inEbby Sue and then he's just
conveniently not there because he got a sword stolen.

(58:24):
True. That's like kind of funny
because that's this is a Zorro getting lost thing.
But at the same time. Well, acceptable.
Also simultaneously a little annoying and lackluster.
A little annoying that we're just riding Zorro out of the
plot of the again, the samurai town.
Now he might be going off to go do something maybe a little bit

(58:45):
more potentially personally impactful because he's going to
now I'm sure he's going to end up at Ryuma's grave.
So now there will potentially besomething more character
motivation driven for Zorro to then turn up later or use as a
few. So like, I'm holding out hope
there that there's going to actually be something worthwhile

(59:07):
in this little subplot of Zorro's world.
But if like if we do this thing where Luffy escapes Udon and
then the Big Mom, big big Big mom comes around and you know,
this was for nothing. Big Mom comes around.
Sorry. There's a very musically
centered like we got off on the queen foot and just never really
stopped. Never stopped.

(59:28):
So I don't know, like I, I like,I'd have to see how it plays
out. Obviously we're probably not
going to get a resolution to that for a little while.
I don't know that they ever really said how far the journey
actually is. Kiku was just kind of like it's
hella far so we'll see. I don't know, I I think I'd
prefer the version where Big Momgets to show up and wreck some

(59:51):
stuff because she's just been super hungry this whole time and
there is now enemies in front ofher for her to kill and maybe
even cannibalize, who knows. Maybe.
Cannibalize. Maybe just start fucking popping
them in our mouth because there's no food here.
We got, we got Dongo. You want a You want 2000 Dongo
Big Mom? Well, I mean fuck, maybe, maybe
Solitaire is going to really turn crab man into that lobster

(01:00:13):
bisque that she you threatened to make them into.
Oh yeah, we have a crab boil. We have a good old fashioned
crab boil. Good old fashioned southern crab
boil. And if that doesn't fill you up,
I'm sure I'll pack a meat. Certainly tastes pretty good.
Dude, that I'll pack a bit was kind of funny actually.
I'm just like spitting on Luffy the whole time.

(01:00:34):
Spitting all over Luffy for like5 minutes, yeah.
Yeah, it was kind of funny actually.
I I was, I was getting fed up with Luffy.
Like stop fucking close your goddamn mouth.
Can you please like, say it and stop spraying it you
motherfucker? Please, please stop spraying it.
Disgusting. But but yes so.
All right. I mean, I, I think, I think we,
I think we mostly did it right. For the most part, I would

(01:00:57):
definitely say so I would say all right.
Well I'm I'm happy we got here. Oh also I wrote this in
miscellaneous. I don't know if it is going to
mean anything, but I also said that Kiku says that Tsunachi is
a bad word so we can't use it anymore guys, sorry.
Aw fuck, Mom said no more. I was using that every day.
Yeah, I've. Yeah, I gotta change my old
vocabulary around. I've been.
That's my favorite word, all right.

(01:01:18):
I didn't realize I was cursing up a storm.
Right, that's what I'm saying. It's like the dolphin noises at
SpongeBob. It's like, oh man, I can't use
dolphin noises. Crabs is a tsunachi.
Exactly. All right.
Well, with that being said, let's move on to Gabe's Fun
Facts and beginning of the GamesFun Facts.

(01:01:48):
Oh well hold on, we have a correction for last week at the
start of Games Fun Facts this week, Fukuokuju is 61 years old.
Sorry Fukujuju, you're old. With that out of the way, let's
get started. It's all right.
God damn. To be fair, I I I sussed this
one out too. I'm like, wow, he looks.
Bad for you. You did say that it's true.
I was like what the fuck, really.

(01:02:09):
Anyway, hello, this is Gabriel speaking to you from a sauna.
I somehow managed to escape the Orochi Oniwabanshu and I figured
I needed a break. Though it's a bit odd that I
found this place in the middle of an iced tundra.
Ah well, I'm not complaining. Anyways, this set of episodes
does not give me a lot to work with.

(01:02:30):
I can't talk about most of the crew members for feel of
spoiling it. The plot itself is more so found
in the chest area rather than inthe character's actions.
I might as well cover the few things I can talk about first.
The three Udon prison guards whoare introduced are once again
all named after playing card games.
Solitaire's connection is prettyself-explanatory, though it's

(01:02:52):
worth noting that her design with six lanky arms is most
likely derived from Spider Solitaire, a variation of the
same. Game and potentially spider
monkey. She has the monkey smile.
Well in mind she even has the spider monkey smile I think.
Oh, really? I think so.
I think mine only said monkey. Oh OK, interesting.
Touché Nuki is slightly more obscure.

(01:03:12):
His name translates to Old Maid,which is a playing card game
from the 19th century, which waslikely derived from Black Peter.
Babanuki is the Japanese name for this game.
I don't know what Black Peter isbut I used to play a shit ton of
Old Maid with my mom when I was younger.
Absolutely Old Maid's Great GameFinally, Daifugo is named after
the Japanese playing card game of the same name, which is known

(01:03:35):
as Tycoon. His design is inspired by the
scorpion men from Acadian language myths, which were
described to have the upper bodyof a man in the lower body of a
scorpion. His helmet resembles that of the
character Joggy from Fist of theNorth Star, which itself derives
its inspiration from the one shown in the Takatsu movie Suka

(01:03:58):
Suka Ban Dekai. The second.
Interesting, I I did not know this Fist of the North Star
reference about Daifugo. That's funny.
That's awesome. The first episode in this set,
9/29, was actually the last episode that was aired before
Toy had to take a break due to the then ongoing COVID-19

(01:04:18):
pandemic. Yikes.
The anime returned with Queen Dancing, which the community was
appointed with. What?
Because they have no taste? What?
What? They were.
What are you talking about? I don't think that's true.
I think. I think everyone fucking ranted
and raved about the queen dance.They have to.
Oh, that's it. Do they have to or are you just

(01:04:39):
projecting? Maybe I'm just projecting.
I'm probably projecting. Let's move on to manga to anime
differences. The kids who mess with Sanji
raids suit capsule while Usop and Frankie tried to prevent the
inevitable, which was also exaggerated by Toy, are made-up
by the anime. The manga does not include the
only hope this arc had for not making Sanji look stupid.
How funny would it have been if they accidentally triggered the

(01:05:01):
raid suit and one of those little kids just went around
being fucking stealth black for a little while instead.
It's like that meme where like aparent is like, don't look
Jimmy, shield your eyes. And then the kid goes back and
goes, It's too late, mother, I'malready Jeremiah.
Hell yeah. Literally, that'd be Bizarro's
confrontation with the Weapons Collector has several

(01:05:21):
differences. The Weapons Collector does not
strike down another swordsman before confronting Zorro.
In the manga. Zorro also does not tell him
that he is a pirate. Lastly, for the scene, the anime
omits the short dialogue the 2 characters have in which the
weapons collector explains that Zorro quote.
Sure took a while to get here for coming straight after him.
The intellectual terror strikes again.

(01:05:41):
Getting lost while chasing someone.
Truly a tragic omission. Finally, I would love to tell
you that most of the bath house scene was made-up, but it's not.
The adaptation is mostly 1 to 1.The most notable changes are the
following. Hawkins did not actually
recognize that Nami and Robin were hiding behind Shinobu by
their shadow in the manga, he just kind of knew as his

(01:06:04):
observation. Hockey gets stronger around
naked women. Freak freak.
Finally, Sanji fighting Drake and Hawkins is completely
made-up. In the manga, once Hawkins
identifies him as Stealth Black,he just dips with everyone in
tow. This also means that Hawkins and
Drake repeatedly calling him Stealth Black is made-up, which
is a shame. That's all for the contents of
this episode. So what now?

(01:06:26):
Here's Hawkins being a freak. I have an image from a manga
panel. Actually, wait a minute.
Hold on. I got to I got to tell you what
this says. It's a it's an actual line from
Hawkins in the manga saying everyone form a line and show us
your feet. And show us your feet.

(01:06:46):
Oh, that's great. I don't know.
Hawkins was that kind of guy. That's a good bit.
You know, to be fair, I'm prettysure that's exactly what
happened in the anime. But for some reason that did not
Click to me. Like stopping for a second and
realizing that Hawkins is shouting Show me your feet.
He might have said ankles in my sub to be more direct.
Yeah, yeah. But this is great.
I didn't know Hawkins was into that.

(01:07:07):
Him and Tarantino are going to have a great time.
That's what I'm saying. No, that's not enough.
What else? Oh, I know.
Here's some fun facts about nosebleeds.
OK, now I know this sounds bad, but hear me out.
Japanese depictions of nosebleeds typically signify
arousal or general perversion, which is how they are used in

(01:07:27):
this series. This is not the only meeting
that nosebleeds have worldwide, however, there's a couple
different cultural meetings for nosebleeds from around the world
that don't signify arousal. I will reapply these to Sanji
for a comedic effect. Firstly, another prominent use
for nosebleeds is what TV Tropesdefine as psychic nosebleeds,
when it a character with mental powers exerts their powers to an

(01:07:48):
extraordinary extent. This is often depicted by the
character bleeding from their nose.
This trope can also apply to characters who are being
affected by such mental forces. Prominent examples include Jean
Grey from the X-Men, Max Klowfield from Life is Strange,
Danny Torrance from The Shining,and even Japanese characters
like Gohan from Dragon Ball and Mob from Mob Psycho.
Reapplying this to the bath house scene, you can surmise

(01:08:11):
that Nami's Happiness Punch could be the psychological
equivalent to a hydrogen Bob. Good bits, good bits.
Excellent. In parts of North America, the
term Nosebleed section or Nosebleed seat can also refer to
the higher altitude seats in a sporting arena.
This nickname derives from the fact that nosebleeds occur more
frequently in higher altitudes due to the lower barometric

(01:08:31):
pressure. Applying this to this scene,
remember that Wano is located ata pretty high altitude, which
means that Sanji's Nosebleed could actually be a subtle bit
of world building. Oh, who am I kidding?
Yeah, good try, Gabe. He's got he's got three more of
these, by the way. In the Finnish language,
expressions such as picking blood from one's nose and

(01:08:51):
begging for a Nosebleed are commonly used to describe
self-destructive behavior, like deliberately getting oneself
into dangerous situations due tonegligence or overconfidence.
Applying this to the bathhouse scene is actually pretty fitting
since Sanji threw himself into asituation where he knew he could
potentially lose all the blood in his body and did it anyway
because all that blood accumulated in his lower region.

(01:09:12):
And then shot up out of his nose.
Of course, in Filipino slang, having a Nosebleed may refer to
anxiety brought on by stressful events like job interviews or to
individuals who struggle to communicate in English.
This fits because the only language Sanji could probably
speak during the mental assault of Nami's ballistic missiles was
neuron activation. Oh my God.

(01:09:35):
OK, two more. In oral recountings of the
Native American Sioux tribes history, women are said to have
experienced nose bleeds due to sexual arousal caused by their
partners playing music. This one I I guess props to
Toei's music department. I mean, they do, they do play
the Germa sound in the background, so.
They do they do. Finally, in the Dutch language

(01:09:57):
the saying to have a Nosebleed describes someone who is
intentionally lying about his knowledge about a certain
subject. This saying does not apply to
Sanji unless he's gotten inspired by USOP and tries to
lie about his intentions. A battle that would be a more
one sided than even Luffy versusKaido.

(01:10:18):
Anyways, that's all for this week.
Unfortunately, I think I can seethe Orochi Oniwabanshu ice
skating towards my location, so I'll have to leave.
Fortunately the ice they skate is getting pretty thin.
The water's pretty warm so I might as well swim.
My world's on fire, how about yours?
That's the way I like it and I'll never get bored.

(01:10:40):
See you all next week, have a nice day.
I didn't think I was going to get an All Star rolled here.
Hey now, you're an All Star. Gave an All Star indeed.
Thank you so much. Oh shit.
I can't believe I got like a full page worth of optional ways

(01:11:04):
to interpret a Nosebleed from various cultures.
Nosebleed. Facts never change, buddy, Never
change. Hell yeah, that was great.
All right, after that, after that, amazing.
Hey, this is the musical cast, by the way.
Oh. My God.
Yeah, you're right. We got more music.
We're. Still on music?
Even Gabe was it on at all? This is this is fantastic.

(01:11:25):
That's actually crazy. That was very much unplanned.
An unplanned happy coincidence. Next week is going to be 933 to
936. Moving on to quotes.
Quotes. Christian, would you like to go
first, please? The floor is yours.
Sure. I have two quotes.
The 1st is as they were flying away at the end of 932.
Robin, very concerningly lookingat Sanji, goes as he's flying

(01:11:50):
away. Sanji, aren't you losing too
much blood? And then you go no, and he
starts like falling out of the sky a little bit and she gives
him a side eye. You're bleeding profusely.
If I die now, I die happy. Let's get to Happy Suit Town.
Who's up? And the others should be there.

(01:12:11):
Try not to faint please. Fantastic.
Fucking. Idiot Robin always on the ball.
The other quote for me is going to be from Queen.
Oh boy. And when Queen shows up on the
scene, he's talking about his physical stature a little bit
here, and he points out that it's all muscle.

(01:12:31):
None of this is fat. I may be round, but this is all
muscle. And then he says if I was
thinner, I would be too popular.Yeah.
He's already popular as fuck, sonow if he was, if he was

(01:12:53):
shredded and hot and even more hot than he is now, he would be
too popular and that would be catastrophic to the Beast
Pirates. Fucking facts.
Nobody would be able to take. It it'd be too much.
It'd be absolutely too much goodbits.
Is that what you have this? Week.
That's it. I'm good.
I'm done. All right, well, continuing the
the musical cast this week, my first quote actually comes from

(01:13:16):
Chopper. So I make it very clear week to
week that how much I love when the dub has fun.
They had fun with this when theycooked.
So and obviously in the set of episodes, we know that Big Mom
is not Big Mom because she has amnesia.
So they are trying to convince her that she is Olean, which to
be fair, her name is Lynn Lynn. So they just kind of were like,
oh, you're Olean. They put the O in front of her
name. Well, Christian, are you

(01:13:37):
familiar with the famous song bythe name of Jolene?
I do know of it, yeah. Well, in this set of episodes,
when Chopper is afraid of Big Mom, at one point he's like, oh,
because she's like, oh, I think Big Mom, that sounds familiar.
He's like, oh, don't think aboutBig Mom, think about Oleen.
And then he starts singing Oleen, Oleen Oleen.

(01:14:01):
And this is to the cadence I assume of the song Jolene.
The name Big Mom sounds awfully familiar to me.
Who could? That be never mind Jolene, just
focus on being Oleene. Sing the Oleene song.
Oleene Oleene. Oh, Jabra, Mom, you're so cute.

(01:14:22):
Yeah, yeah. If you're if you're unfamiliar
with Jolene, a very, very popular, very famous song where
it goes. Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene.
Well, they did that here, but with Oleen and I, I it just
tickles me. It really does.
That is fantastic. This next one comes from the
crab man. Instead of saying oh crap, he
just says oh crab, oh crab, oh crab, oh crab.

(01:14:42):
And I love that crab, oh crab, oh crab, oh crab.
Crap, crap, crap, crap. OK, fair enough.
Oh. Crap, Oh crap.
Oh crap. I have a few in here, but I've
already touched on this one, theKomosaki line from Queen.
I I got to point this out in theQueen song when he at the end of
his song, he just goes, Oh, yeah, it's, it's perfect.

(01:15:10):
I need to hear it over and over again.
I'll send you a link to the dub version of his song.
It's so fucking good. Perfect.
I talked about the give me your top three headaches.
Scrape it. The last one I got comes from
Tano Yasu, where him and the rest of the guys in the Hut are
like, you know, shooting the shit.
And at one point he goes Empty houses keep open up left and
right because people keep starving to death.

(01:15:33):
Empty houses are opening up leftand right because people keep
starving to death. You fellas sure are lucky.
Just awful thing to say, but he's laughing through it.
But he's laughing through, you know, it's Tony.
You, you're doing good. I, I'm proud of you.
You have a bit. Is he doing good?
I feel like he's on the verge ofa mental breakdown at basically
every given chance. Or is he like already at the

(01:15:56):
mental breakdown like I think this is?
I think he's long since passed. Yeah, or he's going through 1
reactively. Yeah, I think, I think he's
already passed the break point, to be honest with you.
Yeah, I think all Village has, frankly, all.
Right, that's what I got sick a lot of queen quotes.
But to be fair, I I couldn't help myself.
So I already brought him into the cast earlier in the in the
show. So you know what?
Just so you don't have to watch Queen yourself.

(01:16:18):
No, that's valid. I get it.
All right, moving on to the Golden Ham.
Well, I. Mean do I even got to say it?
Do I do? This is not even know me right?
Like this is this is a straight queen.
Yeah, this is. Pretty easy.
This is this is, this is a straight queen as far as I'm

(01:16:38):
concerned. Straight queen all the way down,
baby. Straight queen all the way down.
Yas Queen. Sorry to keep you waiting you
pieces of shit. All right, he's a golden ham.
He's unanimous. All right, moving on to fan
mail. Let's go.

(01:17:02):
I do a fan mail. Let me open it.
This comes to us from Zach who has emailed us before.

It's Christian. It's it's it's what's what's
mine called again? I don't even remember.
Brendan, Brendan. Yours is Brendan Trivia.
Brendan trivia. It's Christian trivia.
Let's go. One piece quiz.
This is a Disney and Pixar themed quiz.
OK, there's a little like preamble that it tries to like

(01:18:06):
get you within the setting here.So paw paw away.
Kuma has been one Disney kick since he visited Disneyland and
has sent several One Piece characters into Disney and Pixar
movies. You must guess which character
is in which movie. Bonus points if you get the

(01:18:29):
title correct. So basically all the answers are
going to be famous Disney films.You're going to guess the
character that has been moved into the film from the question,
and then if you get the extra point, also name the movie they
landed in. OK.
With the new name, with the new name.

(01:18:49):
By the way, give me the bit nameor you can give you like the
regular name. The pawn name I'll.
Give you the bit because he theywent at the extra mile and they
made a bit name for the movie aswell.
OK, we'll get there when we can.So this Feh feh first pirate was
sent on a heart warming and breaking journey.
Basset Hound in a story about good friends torn apart and
reunited. So this is Foxy, obviously.

(01:19:11):
Obviously, obviously. Now, do you know the move?
I assume we're talking about Give me that it was Basset
Hound. Then what was the rest of the
description? It says they were sent on a
heart warming and heartbreaking journey between a Basset Hound
and a story about good friends torn apart and reunited.
OK, so I imagine we're talking about Aristocats.

(01:19:33):
OK. Is that your final answer?
Yes, that is incorrect. Oh, it is not.
The aristocat is the fox and thehound.
I don't know if you're familiar with this one.
Oh, well, yeah, that would have been probably a better answer.
Yeah, yeah, I was looking at thethe the the dog for Aristocats.
Now now question, do you think you know what the title of the
movie is? The Foxy and the Hound perhaps

(01:19:55):
probably would have been a better, a better, a better
thought, yeah. That is absolutely correct.
Does the game make a little bit more sense about how how the
name is going to affect the the the answer here?
Yes it does. OK, cool, let me let me do
something here because I feel like it's important to give you
this beautiful picture that Zachwent through making.

(01:20:19):
Oh my God, there's there's visual aids too.
Oh my God, Oh my God. The title's edited too.
That's what I'm saying dude. He made the foxy.
And the Hound. Oh Zach, you're a legend.
Oh my God we have to post. These dude, it's so good.
These have to go somewhere when this episode comes out.
All right, for those keeping track at home folks, he made

(01:20:41):
like title card for the Fox and the Hound and then just
photoshopped Foxy's face on top of the fox, but then also
changed the title to say the Foxy and the Hound and it's so
good. I I love it.
All right. Moving on to question 2 to
Christian, Are you ready? I'm so ready.
You may have a hard time spotting this mischievous
character who sent to World War One London to take a group of

(01:21:03):
kids to a magical land located just beyond the second star to
the right. Oh man, we're really gonna
expose my my lack of Disney knowledge with this 1A
mischievous character. I mean really, that May.
Have a hard time spotting this mischievous character who sent
to World War One London to take a group of kids to a magical

(01:21:26):
land located just beyond the second star to the right.
Yeah, I mean, this would be so much easier if I just knew the
Disney titles in the first place.
Well, well, let's try to break this down.
What? What movie are we?
Do we think we're even talking about?
Well, that's my problem is I don't I, I don't think I, I
don't think I know. Brother, you don't know the
movie about kids in London goingto a magical land located next

(01:21:49):
to the second star to the right Man, I I overestimated your
ability. I maybe you should have read
these questions. My yeah, I maybe should have.
I maybe should have been readingthese to you.
You're talking about, you mentioned a group of kids,
right? Correct.
Yes. Disney movie with groups of
kids. I'm just going to guess that

(01:22:10):
it's, I mean, the one that's coming to mind is Peter Pan.
OK, can I tell you, dude, you nailed it.
You did it. It's.
Peter Pan, OK. Yeah, yeah.
Now playoff that, playoff that Ibelieve in you.
So Peter Pan, we got a mischievous character.
That you may have a hard time spotting.
That I might have a hard time spotting.
Who can go invisible? Sanji.

(01:22:32):
But Sanji doesn't feel like Peter.
Peter Pan Peter Sanji. Absalom doesn't really fit here
either. No, I'd say he doesn't.
I'd say he doesn't are. We talking about literal spots.
Are we talking about? Peter Lucci.
Lucci doesn't fit really well I don't think I know the
character. I thought this would be way
easier knowing the movie title, but this is not the case.

(01:22:54):
To be honest, I'm I'm actually alittle shocked.
Well, I'm just going to post thepicture in the discord and you
tell the audience what the answer is.
Yeah, I'll, I'll let you know how stupid I feel afterward.
Oh, Peter Panda, man. Oh, that's good.
OK. I really tried to emphasize that
you that's hard to spot so that it would help get you in the

(01:23:17):
right. Yeah, no, I got, I got the hard
to spot part. I just didn't like the the idea
that it was like picking them out of a crowd and I I focused
too much on invisibility or likeliterally spots.
OK. Well, that's OK.
That's OK. All right, I mean, I'm satisfied
having gotten Peter Pan out of that at least.
You did good you did. You got the Disney movie
although, so you didn't get either point because the points

(01:23:37):
were for naming the character and then naming the new title
movie. Well, yeah, so I haven't gotten
anything yet. For scorekeeping, you're one for
four. Yeah.
All right. Question three.
Question three. Are you ready, big guy?
I'm ready buddy. This coward gets up to hijinks
in South America, accompanied bya wilderness explorer.
OK, coward I would assume. Is Usopp OK Accompanied?

(01:24:01):
Where was it accompanied by it do?
You want me to tell you when youget the character correctly?
Sure. Yes, you are correct, it is
USAT. Where?
Where are we accompanied? Where?
Give me the? Give me the description again.
It says this coward gets up to hijinks in South America
accompanied by a wilderness explorer.
This is so shocking to me that this doesn't just go like, of

(01:24:24):
course I know what movie that is.
How many movies have a wilderness explorer?
It sounds like just one. Well, I mean.
Your your incredulousness that tells me that it's just one, but
it doesn't mean I remember it. Oh boy, brother, maybe.
Maybe Christian just doesn't watch kids movies.
I'm starting to think that he does not watch these.

(01:24:45):
My Disney knowledge is not actually up there, so I'm just
gonna is this. Did the movie Up tape take place
in South America? Yes, it did, as a matter of
fact. Us up?
Is it just us Up? Is the date upsop.
Yeah, upsop. That's, that's what it was.
That's what they came up with. Hey I got 1.

(01:25:08):
You did it. You did it.
You kind of, I mean it was like pulling teeth a little bit, but
you did get there technically. Yeah, I just did.
I didn't remember where UP actually took place, but I, you
know, I, I just sussed out a movie title that kind of sounded
like it went with his name. Upsop.
Usop. I think USOP almost makes a

(01:25:28):
little bit more sense, but I like UPSOP as well.
It's totally fine. Upsop.
All right, Believe it or not, and I'm sorry to tell you this,
this is your final question. Are you ready?
All right, I am ready. This one, actually, I think, I
think this is going to be tough for you because I do know this
movie. But I it's, I'll know it here.
I'm just gonna read to the question.
Yeah. This young local Italian boy

(01:25:50):
finds friends while struggling to keep his secret that he can
turn into a monster in a villagesurrounded by the sea.
Only this kid can't swim. OK.
This one's tough. I ain't gonna lie.
A little Italian boy, correct? The One Piece character is a
little Italian boy. I don't know.

(01:26:11):
Yeah, that's that's tough. What was the well give me, give
me the give the whole thing again.
Okay, it is. Give me one SEC.
This young local Italian boy finds friends while struggling
to keep his secret that he can turn into a monster in a village
surrounded by the sea. Only this kid can't swim.
Okay, I mean, it's an Italian boy with a devil fruit, sure,

(01:26:32):
but that doesn't is that supposed to be supposed to be
Capone veggie? OK.
Is it Capone Veggie? Oh, because the Italian.
Because the because Italian. Italian, right?
Right. Yeah, it sounds like it's not
though. It is not OK.
It's not. This was tough.
Yeah, like being able to transform.
I you know, if you throw in the towel, I understand.

(01:26:54):
I yeah, I don't know. This might be.
This might be this might be a Gigi on on both fronts.
Like I don't have any idea of the character or the movie.
Well, unless you've seen this very recent Pixar movie, there's
very low chance you know what this is referencing.
Lucci. So there's a movie called Luca,

(01:27:19):
which stars and I thought it wasGreece, but maybe it's maybe it
is Italian, I don't know. But it stars a boy that
discovers like a fish boy creature.
And when the fish boy creature goes on land, he becomes a human
boy and they become friends and they get into like some
shenanigans and have fun or whatever.
But the movie is called Luca. OK.
And this supposed to be a bit onLucci.
Yeah. Got it.

(01:27:40):
Yeah, I wouldn't have gotten that.
I didn't see that movie. Very good.
Now I will say once again, this is not the first time Zach has
done this. Whoever wins gets free fan art.
Christian, you're the one that could play this evening.
Well, I'm the I'm the only winner.
I don't feel like I rightfully deserve this because there was
no competition. I would have had the floor wipe.
Oh, he can't just leave his tokens for like on the table you

(01:28:03):
got somebody's got to take. I don't, I don't know, I don't,
I don't feel like I I don't feellike I earned it.
This was fun and I love, I love these quizzes.
I just have, you know, no good, no childhood.
Have an ass for some of this. I should have, after I vetted
this question, I probably shouldhave just been the one to answer
them because I know I think a lot more Disney movies than you

(01:28:26):
do. Wait, OK, here's here's what I
would say. How were they these presented to
you with a slideshow, right? Correct.
Here's what I would say, Zach, especially since you're doing it
in a secondary thing and you're not just giving the answers in
in the e-mail like you've done this slideshow thing.
If you're going to do this in order for the person even
talking, reading to be able to participate, block the answer

(01:28:50):
somehow and then like have a transition or whatever to reveal
the answer. Or like I know you got the
picture or something but like put a block over that says like
reveal me. Well, to be fair, I want to, I
want to give Zach a lot of credit.
The answer was on its own slide.So there was the question slide
and the answer slide. But like somebody's got to know
the answers because we can't just sit here all day guessing
at it, hoping to, you know, figure it out.

(01:29:11):
I mean, I guess I could have maybe, maybe that would have
been a better way to do it. Yeah, I mean, we could set, we
could set a timer for ourselves,be like if we don't have it in 2
minutes, then then we just reveal the answer.
Okay, well, you know what compromise this, this was this
logistics problem. You know, for for myself, I, we,
we could have played this game, but unfortunately, I, I went
ahead to the answer so that I could chuckle in the corner

(01:29:31):
while you struggle for, you know, a minute at a time.
Yeah, I still think you deserve the token.
You played the game fair and square, all right, but in the
future, because of the way that Zach organized this, we can play
it that way, and that's what we'll do in the future.
Yeah, I, we, we lose the effect of somebody going, you got it
like as soon as somebody says it.
But basically, if it comes down to two people here, we I think

(01:29:53):
we should do it that way. But if we've got three of us,
then we can have one person be the actual reader and then the
other two people can face off like we've done in the past.
But OK, yeah, knowing that Zach set up that way, then that's
great. Keep doing what you're doing
then. This is fantastic.
Me big dumb idiot. Fan art that I want.
Ennaru Queen No. I don't know, just.
Flat Ennaru Queen. Just ennaru queen.

(01:30:17):
I want luffy. I want a Mad Max style thing.
Put Queen in a Mad Max cart and then have Luffy.
Oh boy. Being the doof warrior on the
back playing the bass. The guitar player.
Yeah, that's that's the character's actual name, by the
way, is Doof Warrior. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

(01:30:37):
From Mad Max, I want that. That's what I want.
Fantastic. Incredible.
Thank you so much, Zach, for thefun quizzes.
These are great. And I I might say they're
getting better overtime too. This was this was a fantastic
premise. That that was a really good one.
That 1 was fantastic. If Zach has any more in the
hopper for that, I can't wait toplay.

(01:30:58):
Yeah, I think I would do good things.
Yeah, I think, yeah, you would have.
You would have swept this one. I'm sure you would have.
Like even even if all the rest of us were here, I think this
was absolutely your game 100%. I was fucking ready.
You were locked in for this one.So yeah, I absolutely keep up
this energy, Zach. This was fantastic.

(01:31:19):
Thank you again, Zach. Moving on to the garb gab.
Well, Christian, do you do you have the garb?
Gab? I do in fact, have the garb gab.
Brendan, thank you for asking. However, go ahead.
It's two weeks in a row. Just you and me.
Yep. And we indulged the garb gab
last time, as we usually do. But we sure did.
I think it's time. 2 weeks in a row.
The others didn't show up. They don't care enough, right?

(01:31:40):
But you know who does care? Me.
So Brendan, this week I brought you the grab bag.
Thank God. Jeez, I just, I, I hate having
to put on that facade every weekof being like, oh boy, guys like
the grab the garb gab. We like the oh God grab bag.
Don't you worry, buddy, I'm herefor you.
I'm I'm here for your like bimonthly dose of the grab bag.

(01:32:04):
I. I love this fucking bag dude.
I mean just just just feel it. It's so soft.
It's. Perfect.
I know it's velvety smooth. It's so good.
Oh oh did some did we add a fuzzy liner on the inside?
Now it's nice and soft and fuzzyon the inside.
Yeah, yeah. I just, I miss it so much.

(01:32:24):
Christian, can we please go back?
I just want to go back. We can't.
Why? But this, this is but because of
you know that and then we then that I can't have moments like
this where it's nice and specialand we have our we have our
little grab bag moments together.
I'm going to miss you, grab bag.That fucking potato sack's got
nothing on you. Don't ever forget that, all

(01:32:45):
right? So I've filled up the grab bag
here with the latest and greatest in in capitalist
trends, Nano Blocks. Have you heard of Nano Blocks
before? Nano blocks?
No, I've I've not heard of a nano block.
They're they're basically mini Legos and they come in if you
think of a franchise, they have nano blocks of it similar to
Funko pops. OK, but do you build these

(01:33:07):
instead? Sure.
So I filled it with nano blocks,but of 1 piece characters and
they're all holding little little pieces of paper with the
thing out in them. So why don't you dig on in and
see what we're going to do? OK, all right.
Sure. Yeah.
And I'm just reaching my hand inand pull.
Yeah, that's that's a full fucking figure right there.
Oh, this one feels sturdy. But let me grab this one.

(01:33:29):
Oh, I got the queen. I knew it.
Yeah, that's a new release. Too.
I could feel that muscular ball anywhere, baby.
It's good to have you back, my queen.
All right, now what? What's what kind of piece of
paper you got here? Says here Valentine's award.
Okay, Valentine. So we're going to give a
Valentine this week. Okay.

(01:33:50):
You know, it's, it's got to be daifugo or llama or alpaca, man.
That's, that's where my head's at.
Where? Where are your counters?
I'm, I'm, I'm going to, I'm going to solidly give it to
Daifugu for, for stomping on Tio.
I just absolutely fucked that guy.
You don't want to give it to alpaca man for say it.

(01:34:10):
Don't spray it. I it is gross, especially
because it smelled terrible but but the bit was funny.
That's fair. The bit was kind of funny.
For Luffy to just be like sitting there and taking that
however he'll get him stomped onpatently.
Not funny so. Not funny.
I like that old guy. He's cool.

(01:34:30):
He's cool in my book. Yeah, and his tattoo is sick.
His tattoo is pretty fire actually.
He's got like a shawl of flowersand and like blue.
Very cool. Very, very, very sick.
Yeah, yeah. What did you say?
You want to try that again. All right, well, that was easy.
The Valentine award to Daifugo. Fuck you, Daifugo.

(01:34:51):
I like Daifuku better. Die fuck you.
Die fuck you. It is very like jarring to me
that we have a daifugo and a daifuku.
Like man dude Japanese be crazy.This is a dough, just running
out of names is really the problem.
I do think I think when he namedall fucking 85 of them of them

(01:35:11):
kids, like he started to really scrape the bottom of the barrel.
He had to. Yeah, we must have.
It's like fucking crazy, dude. All right, yeah, that's that's
it. That's it, guys.
So perfect. I'd say I can show you the
world, but I can't because I don't have my magic carpet.
Oh, so you know. And also, if you sing any more
of that, we might just get copyright struck.

(01:35:31):
We we might get copyright struck.
Yeah. We're not entirely sure if
that's something we're in at risk of.
Yeah, we've done a lot of singing on this one and I don't
know which, if I'm sure some of them are copy copyrightable at
some regard. So the only thing I know is in
his All Star. But you know.
Like somebody once told you thatthe world was going to roll you.

(01:35:56):
Exactly like that. You know, Christian, you ain't
never had a friend like me and like, like your friend.
I'm going to close this podcast.Goodnight.
Goodnight people. OK, that's.
It it's like. All right.
I mean, if you were my friend, we'd go for like another two
hours or something, but sure. Nah, Nah.
I don't think I got that at me. All right, well.
Blame I got too many Disney songs to listen to.

(01:36:17):
This is all right. Well, you know what?
That's fair. Good night, everybody.
I love you. Oh, wait.
I didn't do the thing. Oh shit.
Hey, if you wish to support.theshowconsidersigningupforamembership@pansigns.com
we'll get extra content like in person recordings and vlogs.
There's also a bird store where you could buy a little something
for you or a loved one. Please please, please the
hamsters will eat us if they don't get fed, Especially if you

(01:36:38):
almost forget to do the thing atthe end of the show, then
they'll really start coming for you.
They'll eat you from the inside out, crawl in your mouth when
you are asleep, and then they'llconsume you just like the rats
do in the medieval times. Audience, I'm not even kidding.
I got out of my chair and I started walking down the
stairwell. When Christian said that, I came
back. All right now, goodbye.

(01:37:01):
Goodbye.

The Burden

The Burden

The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
