(00:00):
Hey guys, random question. Uh huh.
When you do the no I. Haven't been in prison for 30
years. Wait, what?
What? What?
So what your question? Yeah.
So when you guys do the count inparticularly I guess when we use
the bot more than anything else,it could do the same thing when
you're with Brendan. Anyway, when you're doing the
count in and you get to 3 and you start counting your 321, do
you like have a full body motionto the count in or you a normal

(00:24):
person who sits still in your chair and just counts 321?
Could you elaborate a little bitmore on what you mean by a full
body count in like, are you likecheerleader?
You know, like give me a one, give me a 2 like.
Stands up with a pair of BOM BOM.
Right, like like what encompasses a full body count?

(00:46):
You have some type of bodily motion.
You're like some other like partof your body is moving as part
of the synchronization process. So for instance, what I just did
right now was I essentially not rocked back and forth, but like
I zoomed in and out with my chest slash head.
So I went, OK, imagine you're a chicken bending down to get some

(01:07):
pellet on the on the ground. That was me.
I went 32. What, so you bobbed?
Yes, I bobbed. Yeah, I'm imagining like a head
nod. Yes, yes, like when you're head
banging at the concert but you're doing it slow to the
count. Correct.
No, I mean, that's fine. No, I don't.
No. I don't, but I'm happy for you
that you do, I guess if it gets you through the countdown.

(01:30):
If anything, I do the exact opposite, which is like, I, I
like stay like a hunter, like fucking motionless, like a
fucking psychopath because I don't want any sound down
besides 321 coming out of my my fucking thing because I have a
loud ass. You hear all that you hear that
people, you hear that That's my room.

(01:51):
I don't like moving around a lotbecause it makes too much noise
and I'm a mess. If anything makes noise during
the countdown, Devin's going to lose couch.
Exactly. 32 7. Devin, sounds like that one
mission I had to play in a Call of Duty.
Was it World at War? One of the old ones, One of the
ones that popped up on the Wii back in the day?

(02:13):
Because, you know, I was a bad gamer and I bought Call of Duty
on the Wii. Wow, on the Wii.
Incredible. Did you have the ZAP gun
accessory? Yeah, I had the whole rig thing
where it holds my Wii nunchuck and remote in the position of a
gun. Oh.
Fuck yeah. Even has the back stock.
It was great. It was cool.
Anyway, there was a mystery, yeah.
Like be a sniper or whatever. And there's like a button option

(02:36):
to like, I guess what they called it was like, hold your
breath to like, steady your aim.That's what I imagine Dev is
doing. He's like, yeah, I gotta lock
in. It's that moment in the mission
where you have to hold your breath for a long time.
Yeah, that's me, except for I have to breathe because I have
to say 321 but. Devin has to lock in so

(02:57):
incredibly hard he forgets to breathe.
But it's like also like a Dark Souls game where the hit boxes
are very fucking weird. So I have to be like really on
my shit and paranoid watching those iframes for my breathing,
yeah. OK brother, I know I made a
video game analogy, but what do you mean there's hit boxes
involved? What are you talking about?
Don't worry about it. I'm we're not going.

(03:18):
We're not going down this rabbithole.
Aren't. You the one trying to get to the
Video Game Awards, right? Now.
Exactly. So I'm trying to move us along.
I got fucking game drops to watch and reveals.
Gabe Newell just walks down the room with his three fingers
raised. Bro just watch the trailers on

(03:43):
YouTube like everyone else you weirdo.
I don't want to. I want to do it with all the
other people in our community that are watching it right now.
So with that being said, let's read a goddamn summary.
Anyone want to do it? I'll do it.
We've got 2 main focal points with not too much deviation this
time around. I can read debatable.
So let's kick things off with something that's neither one of

(04:04):
those cool things and get a quick check in on Kiku and the
kids. They're still on the way to
Udon. OK great.
Now that that's out of the way we hit up Luffy to see what he's
doing with his mini training arcin the prison camp.
He so far beat the crap out of abunch of nobodies and now the
bar is being raised up to the gifters level as a few of them
step up to challenge Luffy. Only the fall 1 by 1 as he

(04:25):
attempts to create a punchless punch move using hockey.
In the last bout of the episodes, Old Man Heo finally
catches on to what Luffy is trying to accomplish and gives
him a demonstration of how he used to keep fools in check back
in the day. Catching up with the rest of the
gang, Law has set out on his ownto rescue his crew from the
clutches of the Beast Pirates after Shinobu accuses them of
snitching on the Grand Planet Takedown.

(04:45):
Orochi Yasui steps up in a stepsin Excuse me after a second
after I'm having a stroke after overhearing the conversation
about the revolution and insert it's himself in the plan, moving
to the snow covered bridge whereZorro's locked in combat with
not one but two fierce opponents.
After Komorosaki and Toko run upbeing chased by an assassin,
Zorro manages to disarm him and use his weapon to unleash a

(05:07):
massive attack, but not before taking damage that caused him to
pass out before getting to fightthe sword thief.
He awakens the Komorosaki havingtended to his wounds and he lets
him. And she lets him know that she
is actually Chioti Kominowski's little sister.
What surprises await us next week?
We'll find out. Cool, I'm glad I read that out
loud because Christian what the fuck bro?

(05:28):
What do you mean how? Do you keep doing this?
You can't keep getting away withthis.
You can't keep lying to people and telling them you've never
seen one piece, that you don't know what's going to happen
next. When like 2 weeks ago you said,
boy, Gee guys, I don't, I don't know where I possibly could have
gone the stock from. But bro, wouldn't it be crazy
that Kumarasaki was actually Momo's sister?
Like wow bro, what? You can't keep getting away with

(05:50):
this. Wasn't that me that pointed that
out? Joan been here in a month.
What are you talking about? Oh, wait, no, that was just in
my head. That's right.
You just said that Komarosaki was going to be a good person,
which also ended up being true. But I do remember having the
conversation with you. I remember.

(06:12):
That. I maybe.
Again in his head. I don't.
I don't know man, it's been a while.
It might be that paint thinner kicking and.
All the painting, all those minis is really getting to you,
huh? Yeah, it's you have a problem, I
don't. Right.
So anyway, welcome back to both of you.

(06:36):
Really, it's been me and Brendanfor the last two weeks on this
show. So how, how, how you guys doing?
How I mean, especially Devin, Devin, you had to, over the
course of the last week or two, catch up on over a dozen
episodes. How are you?
How are you feeling buddy? It's OK, take your time.
Well, no, don't take your time because I'm still trying to get

(06:58):
to those video game awards. I feel like this is the longest
step I have ever taken. What does that mean?
A. Whole lot of nothing's happening
while stuff is happening. All right, man, what?
What the fuck? So it's just like a really,
really big step. The foot hasn't landed yet, but

(07:18):
it's it's still going. I don't know man, Luffy's
Luffy's making progress on his level up strategy to Kaido in in
the one V1 salty run back down the road.
We got Big Mom as part of the the plot twists plotting.
I hate it. Respectable.
Yeah, I thought was going to be.One of my main questions was how
do you feel about the Big Mom? Amnesia plot.

(07:40):
Amnesia thing. That is so dumb.
As soon as I saw it I was like, this is dumb.
We're doing amnesia again and then like like again like I'm
like normal. I watch these episodes with my
cousin. He goes Nah, that hasn't
happened before. I literally point at Sabo and be
like really? Yeah, what the fuck is he
talking about? He could have told me it

(08:00):
happened before he goes. Oh, right.
Like, yeah, right, right. All right, I need the SpongeBob
meme of him looking like a bird,all right?
Exactly me rips rips open the drywall of all the fucking
amnesia plots. Yeah, it's all The Dirty diapers

(08:27):
from the clam. Exactly.
But like it's like this one is just like as soon as like it
happened, I was like, oh, no, Big Mom is totally that.
Like that's how I feel like I'vebeen reacting from the last 12
episodes. It's just like, Oh no, I can't
wait for this to not matter. Like how?

(08:51):
About. That like Komarisaki dying.
Oh, that totally doesn't look like a fake.
You know, assassination. Oh, Big Mom fell off the boat.
If only anyone ever drowned for real.
For real when they get fell in water.
Yeah, when they fell in seawaterwith a devil.
Fruit Yep, like if only they actually showed them perishing

(09:13):
at the bottom like that'll ever happen.
But like that, that's just how it like it's been coming across
like every single little plot twist.
It's like like like this week when he's like, oh, by the way,
you know I'm alive and by the way, I'm the you know, I'm his
sister. I literally look turned to my
cousin. I went what?

(09:34):
No way she's alive. What?
Yeah, I think Devin is just so skeptical at this point that
nothing surprised him because henever trusted it to begin with.
It's even skeptical. It's more just like didn't
happen it it the the rules stillsticks.
If there it's not a flashback. There is no corpse on screen.

(09:58):
Didn't happen they I. But also, with this early in the
arc, with a character that's built up that much exactly, does
anyone really think I want to beinside the mind of the person
who actually believed Komarosakiwas dead?
And tell us how middle school was.
That's fucked up, that was. Is hello, audience, Christian

(10:27):
from the future here with a little warning for you all.
Justin's big mouth has gone and done it again, very directly
spoiled something for Devin and I, although I'm pretty certain
that Devin was dissociating at the time, so he didn't quite
hear what Justin said, luckily for him.

(10:49):
All right, though, I've got yourbacks for all of you listeners
out there who are not caught up,just like Devin and I aren't.
And you also don't have to worryabout Justin's punishment next
recording. He's going to fucking get what's
coming. I also snuck a little something
into his fridge last night, and let's just say when he finds it,

(11:10):
his mood's going to be a little hurdled.
Anyway, for those who don't mindthe spoiler, step right up.
Enjoy us getting angry at Justinas a preview for next week's
episode. For anyone who wishes to avoid
the spoiler, though, you can skip forward 45 seconds starting

(11:30):
right now. I mean, personally, I thought
she was dead. I was like, yo, the crazy man
got her. You're wild.
You're out of your fucking mind.There is no fucking way you
thought that she was actually dead.
You mean Kyoshiro? Yes, sorry, who?
What? I don't know what I said, but
I'm going with what you said. Oh, did you just fuck something

(11:51):
up? There's too many jiros and
shiros and manjiros. Justin.
What Justin, did you do the thing?
I didn't do anything. What did you just do?
I didn't do. What did you just do?
I'm going to fucking strangle you from across this table.
We. Were talking about a nostro.
No, you said Kyoshiro. What's?

(12:13):
His man's name? This guy's name is Kyoshiro.
That's not who he said. And I'm not going to repeat it
for the sake of it all. Right.
Cool. So Kyoshioshi over here.
Kyoshi Warrior. Yeah, the Kyoshi Warrior over
here is a deranged psychopath swordsman working for the the
the Orochi regime. Cap Slice Kumarosaki in that
episode. When I'm watching this week to

(12:34):
week, I'm like, damn, she got God, Gigi.
She's a martyr now. Dear Wild.
I think this is a very plausiblesense to have when you're a week
to week watcher going damn bro the the psycho killers psycho
killed. Not when you're a week to week
watcher of One Piece. Yeah, we'll kill people like
this. I.
Think there is no reason to everdoubt that Kamura Sakumi is dead

(12:54):
in that moment. Or, excuse me, not dead in that
moment. I think that there is plenty of
reason to doubt, given that we are watching One Piece.
I think 900 episodes? 900 episodes of what, 2 deaths
in real time? Saying is after she re pops up.
I'm running from the the site dude.

(13:14):
I can't remember his name all ofa sudden.
I don't even know that he got a name.
Commazo. That's his name.
He took Kiri Commazo, Sure. After the running from him.
I'm just here like, OK, how did they fake that death?
How'd they do? It that's where I'm at.
I figured it was going to be a setup and I talked about this
with Brendan last week, that clearly Kyoshiro and Komarosaki
were in on this together and it was going to be a fake death

(13:35):
scenario. To what end?
I don't know. We already know Kyoshiro doesn't
like Orochi, so whatever. Whatever that is, there is
something I. Think he's just collecting all
the poker balls to release them all at the last minute to be
like, surprise, we're going to have a coup d'etat now.
Who? Kyoshi.
Yeah. That's why he's so adamant on
collecting all of his Pokemans with this.

(13:56):
What is this collecting though? Where, where, where else are you
getting this from? He's arresting all the people
with the the moon tattoos. Oh, well, I mean, yeah.
Yeah. So he's he's collecting.
The Beast Pirates are mostly theones doing that, but he's.
Involved. Yeah.
And so he's. Because Orochi's making him.
Yeah, and so he's doing it. This is my thought.
He's collecting them all, putting them all in one spot

(14:16):
because now he's like, haha, nowI'm going to force you to be
part of a revolution, but you don't know you're part of a
revolution yet because you know,you just thought you got a cool
tattoo and. You think some of these people
just blocked into the tattoo shop and went oh.
That's a cool one. Some of them actively said that
and I would believe that. Like that would be a thing.

(14:37):
I would believe. I know several people with
tattoos who have gotten them just because vibe.
Without a doubt, there is someone in in there that is
unjustly arrested for having a tattoo.
They just had a backwards moon tattoo.
Exactly. They're not part of the
revolution at all. They were just like, hey, that

(14:58):
seems cool. I've seen a bunch of people
around town with that. I want that exactly.
There are tons of people like that in the world for sure.
At least one. If we actually find this out
about people in the in the in the revolution, I'm going to be
fucking, I'm going to be I'm going to lose my mind, honestly.

(15:19):
Why? Because it'd be so fucking out
of nowhere and funny that Devin actually called something like
that. Like we're just, we're just
casually hanging out in the prison or like when the
revolution happens later on in the Ark and there's just a
couple of guys who are sitting there and just going.
I don't know what I'm doing here.
I what is what was the tattoo a bad thing?

(15:41):
I don't I'm I'm so sorry. I I didn't realize that made me
part of revolution. It just looked cool.
I was part of my my sign. But you know what?
Fuck you guys for putting me in prison because of this tattoo.
Yeah, I'm on their ship now. Yeah, I'm on their.
Of course I'm on their fucking side.
I didn't. I didn't even mean to be here.
Could you imagine like ordering the same ramen at a fucking

(16:03):
restaurant or something and thenit just makes you part of a
gang? Right.
Like that's basically the equivalent.
It's like ordering off the secret menu and you thought it
was a real food item but you didn't realize it was actually
code for cocaine around back. Yeah, you order a particular
sticker off of Etsy and it ends up putting you inside of a cult,

(16:25):
you know? There are plenty of people I
could think of that have had that.
It's since happened to them, so I can imagine that it would
happen in this One Piece universe.
Yeah, so it was back to my conspiracy theory.
Right, Right. He's collecting them all into a
little pocket so that when he finally jailbreaks them, when
the post it note that everyone can't decipher, but suddenly now

(16:47):
they all can because it's so fucking obvious.
Apparently, you know, reveal, you know, we're going to coup
d'etat time. He's just going to be like,
haha, surprise, I was good all along, fucker.
And then he's going to be like, by the way, remember that
you're, you know, that girl you were sipping for psych.
She's alive. I used the back of my blade.

(17:07):
No, I definitely cut her ass butit was shallow.
Or worse, it's going to be like the back of the blade.
It had like red sharpie on it orsomething, something stupid.
Maybe they invented those squibsthat they use in Hollywood.
Oh yeah. The sword itself is a giant
squib. Sword is a squib.
It just blows blood everywhere as it swings.

(17:28):
It's got a hollowed core that that you can put liquid in and
he puts blood and like presses alittle button on the hill.
It's Kool-aid one piece ghoul aid.
Okay, hear me out. So they're currently operating
on the assumption they know whatthe plan is.
And the way someone I remember who narrated this part broke it

(17:49):
down was that the painting or whatever symbolize a bunch of
blah blah blah. That the flame at the end of the
bird tail or whatever stood for the fire festival, which is
where Kaido throws a big shindigor whatever.
And that the moon or some about the birds in the moon position
means twilight. I guess that means before
sunrise. I don't know things.
And then that the snake on the picture stood for one of the

(18:15):
ports in one of the countries because the country's name is
like Japanese for snake or some shit.
I think it was Habu Habu port orsomething like that type of
snake. Hondo.
I know it's already an H anyway,so that's the current
speculation that we have not confirmed.
And so I'm asking you to do you think that is like 100% correct?
Or has someone made an oopsies and they got like 99% of the way

(18:37):
there but they missed like one tiny detail is going to like
flip this whole thing on his head?
So based on the fact that all the Straw Hat crew are going
like oh shit, the plan got leaked, I'm leaning to assuming
that yes, that was the OG plan. And also the fact that they
explained it many moons ago, saying like, hi, yeah, see this

(18:58):
picture of this wing Ding that Idrew.
Well they explained it. My bad I I missed a lot of
stuff. Yeah, they all last explained it
like forever ago. Well, yeah, like the the ally
side, the side that we were on with the pirates and all with,
with the Straw Hat Pirates and and the, you know, the 9 Akazaya
9 here. Yeah, Akazaya 9.

(19:20):
We got their explanation of thatflyer a while ago, but in these
episodes we got the bad guys laying it down and from what I
remember the two explanations lined up OK.
Unless I'm missing one of the finer points.
It sounded like they basically got it right where fire Festival
night before at the docks or whatever, or the harbor,

(19:41):
whatever it was and so on. So it sounded pretty similar to
me. So from what I can tell, the bad
guys have the plan down. So unless there's a minor
difference that I didn't catch or the plan that we've been
hearing about was a fake plan inthe first place.
I complained about this to Brendan last week because we

(20:03):
first start getting introduced to this idea that the bad guys
have figured out the plan. And I'm like, I'm thinking to
myself, no fucking shit. You know, they're walking around
with these Flyers and everyone, that everyone's got their ankles
out with this moon tattoo. Doesn't anyone think it's going
to be fucking weird after a little while that half the town
is walking around with the same tattoo and nobody knows what the
fuck it means? It could just be trendy bro,

(20:25):
come on. No fucking way in the same spot.
Nobody's falling for that. Trendy bro.
So the very, very believable cover up.
Nonsense, utter nonsense to me. We live in the year 2025.
What do you mean? Put the fucking tattoo somewhere
where it can be easily flashed to people in the know, but is
not just plainly visible at all times.

(20:46):
All I'm saying is in this time period my assumption is no one
should be seeing your ankles unless you're a slut.
So. Wow, slut shaming in 2025.
Wow, that's crazy that you just said that.
I'm not slut shaming, I'm slut identifying you.
I love shame sluts. I love sluts.
That is the same thing. No, it's.

(21:07):
Not even the courtesans don't show their ankles.
They might even show less ankle than the average person.
They got the long fucking dresses and shit on.
Well, that, that's different. That's a professional thing.
It's like being business casual,repaired casual.
They got the socks on. Yeah, dude socks with the.
Fur got to pay to see them grippers.
I don't know this this this is crazy to me that the fact that

(21:27):
anyone is surprised that the plan got lead is wild to me when
they're all just walking around with their bare ass tattoos out.
Oh, wholeheartedly agreed. But I feel like there's no
reason for anyone in the government or, you know, Orochis
regime to look at that picture and be able to decipher it
without someone leaking it. I'm not even worried about the

(21:48):
picture necessarily. I'm worried about the tattoo.
The picture can be whatever thatcan be like that.
That can be somebody's weird artproject for all I care.
But the ankle tattoo is what gets me.
It's plainly visible at all times.
And eventually, with enough people walking around,
somebody's going to start askingquestions.
Because if the moon. The moon tattoo I'm pretty sure

(22:10):
is supposed to be representativeof the Kozuki clan.
So we're now all walking around with a fucking backwards moon
tattoo and we're worried about representing the clan, or not
representing the clan not getting caught.
Whose fucking idea was it to putit in plain sight?
I know we're trying to. I quickly identify allies in a
moment so that we can hand out the Flyers, but eventually

(22:33):
something like this is going to happen where the goddamn enemies
catch on too. And that's all I got to say
because I fucking ranted about this last week too and I'm done
with it. Agreed.
It's bullshit. I'm in the same boat, but again
I also have to remind myself children for cartoons or cartoon
for children. They're adults.
They're adults in the universe. I'm not disagreeing with you,

(22:53):
but who is the target audience? For allegedly children.
The target audience at this point has grown the fuck up.
One Piece started 20 years ago. And they're still watching.
Some Harry Potter progression asshit where like originally it
was for 12 year olds and then itbecomes for 20 year olds.
Risk my case? At this point One Piece should
be being written for fucking 30 year olds.

(23:14):
Hey I'm not 30, I've still got like 8 more months.
Sweats. Yeah, 76.
Devin. Aggressively gets.
Sweaty, a young 135 or whatever.Yeah, I'm a young, beautifully
young 135. Yeah, whatever doctorine is, I

(23:37):
forget what how old she says sheis.
Enough. Yeah.
But anyway, that's that, right? Done what?
Also, Nope. Go on that that llama.
Alpaca. Fucking disgusting.
OK alpaca guy. Disgusting.
What really blew me away was hockey coated spit.
Bro that's crazy. It's pretty funny.

(24:06):
As soon as he was spitting and he was going to fight and they
started pulling out the hockey stuff, I was like, OK this is
dumb. It tracks.
This is very one PCI hate it butEW.
Hockey coated spit not on my bingo card.
I the possibilities for this I've I've opened up.
The floodgates are open, bro. Hell yeah, this has changed the
hockey game. Also, it has opened up the

(24:30):
potential for yeah, but no, so Iknow I said it in the discord.
I don't know if you guys touchedon it, you know, in my stead,
but the Scorpion guy. I wasn't here for that.
We've not had a recording since you watched those episodes.
OK OK so as I was watching my episodes and looking at the

(24:51):
monstrosity of a body that that person has.
It's just a scorpion with the with the torso.
It's cool. OK, Justin, where's his penis?
Is it in the center? Like just dangle in there.
He has no use for that anymore. Exactly right.
So then it it this made me, you know, question.

(25:12):
I was like, OK, why does scorpions poop right?
Like. We we know they don't really
have genitals, but where do theypoop?
And so I googled it. They pooped from their tail like
rate like, like a Pez dispenser like and, and if for those that
are curious, you know, you can join up where the venom comes
out. Yeah, not directly.
So I I saw the video that Devin shared from like a Reddit post.

(25:32):
It blew my mind. It's like you have the the tails
grown like segmented or whatever.
So the last segment right beforelike the hook of the the
Stinger. Like where the pokey thing is,
yeah, it like flips up like a Pez dispenser showing his little
scorpion butt hole and it poops out of it.
It's. Crazy, it's.
Fucking wild. Highly recommend you look at it

(25:54):
up just because it's fucking shocking.
Nature's awesome. Right.
But then you look at this guy and you realize like, OK, he has
a piece of shit personality. He's an asshole.
Wait a minute. He poops from his head.
He's a shithead. He's a literal shithead lol.
He poops from his hair. Fun facts.

(26:14):
Scorpions poop from their tail. Do you think he ever like ever
fucks up occasionally and like it gets on his forehead?
Oh my God. If he has the runs, he just
gives himself a shower. Oh no, sneeze too hard and it
comes out a little. Standing in line and the guy in

(26:40):
front of you is taking way too long because he's like checking
his phone and you're just sitting there dancing around.
Is your head spilling shit all over you all right?
I'm moving this on, I don't wantit anymore.
I need to know, does he use a? Does he wear a helmet?
I think he does have a helmet orsomething on right?
Oh he 100% wears a helmet. We know what that helmet's for.

(27:02):
Is this a cock and ball torture joke?
Like what? What are we talking about?
No, it's for it says stop the poop from getting in his hair or
the rest of his. Anywhere really, you'd think
he'd be able to aim it. That's PPE right there.
It's an articulated tale. Listen, Christian, you're you're
a guy. We're all guys here.
One thing I've learned about menin the bathroom is they can't
aim for shit. Doesn't matter what's coming out
of. Them As a gas station attendant,

(27:22):
I can confirm that nobody knows how to aim.
All right, well, on that note. Accuracy is for the week,
apparently. I'm going to ask you one last
question about stuff that happened previously before we
dive into these. How did you react to RAID Suit

(27:43):
Sanji? This is for both of you.
That is not the reaction I was expecting.
Well. So they missed out.
They missed out on a great opportunity.
Go on you. Know instead of a instead of
soba mask they could have been soca mask and been a pun making
fun of you know Soga king right right.

(28:03):
They missed out on that, you know, shame they want.
Am I surprised that he got it? You know, Pop can.
No, I'm not surprised, but at the same time I think it's
hilarious. Like I don't know how to feel
about it because like so far it's too jarring for him, if
that makes sense. Like aesthetically.
But how he uses it is very much him coded like getting caught

(28:24):
and the shit kicked out of him, you know, because surprise
surprise, he sees Nami's, you know, naked.
Yeah, I speed around some episodes and I was like, wait, I
missed a week where he gets called in the bath house.
That's both awful and amazing for me at the same time, because
honestly, I don't think I want to be part of that discussion.
I don't want to relive that memory.

(28:45):
But just like the blood, just seeing the blood shoot out of
his face through the mask, I, I thought that was hilarious.
But all around it just feels wrong because I know it's a
whole part of his back story, but at the same time it's like
aesthetically, visually, it fitshim but doesn't, you know what I
mean? Devin, remind us for for people

(29:06):
at home, were you a Power Rangers guy growing up?
I mean, I watched the fuck out of Power Rangers.
Do I remember anything about Power Rangers as a kid?
Fuck no. But like you, you were you were
a fan. You liked it, of course.
Oh, OK. Listen, I've, I've met many of
Power Ranger haters. All right, Try to confirm for
the bodies at home. Yeah, I called those those guys
putties. Putties, yeah.
If you knew. If you know, you know Christian.

(29:28):
I don't know. It's a damn shame.
I was not a Power Ranger guy grown up.
And that's why you're a Putty. That's fair, all on it.
My favorite part of Raid Suit Sanji is all of the dudes he
runs across from the North Blue.Yeah, everyone fucking knows
what he is. Yeah, yeah, like right now we've

(29:48):
got Law Hawkins and X Drake, whoare all from the North Blue, who
just. They see him in the raid suit
and they start fanboying immediately and it's fucking
hilarious. Oh, I love it.
I love that aspect. I love all of the scenes of of
everyone being like, wait, wait,wait, is that fucking stealth
black from Derma 66, the comics?And then they're like, and then

(30:08):
he's going to do this and he's got this power and now he's
going to go invisible and he gotsuper speed and he's got jets in
his boots and that part, that stuff.
Great watching these big strong dudes just reduce themselves to
their bearish kid form geeking out over the basically celebrity
in front of them. Fantastic.
Every other part of Raid suit Sanji, get it out of here.

(30:30):
I don't want it. Right.
Like I love that aspect of it, but like as soon as I saw the
boots come into frame I went no,I thought I was for.
Wow, yeah, that one, that ones for.
Yeah, I don't care about that. I thought I was free from the
gym sneakers. It's like no.
But luckily they didn't use thatsound bite a lot with him, which
I love. Yeah, it's fine.

(30:51):
You'll get it later when we're doing actual fighting.
So far he's running other. Than that, I mean, it was neat.
As soon as they, you know, show him playing with the can, I was
like, oh, okay, so it's going to, this is going to be a thing.
Yeah, we don't have to talk about that.
I'm over that. I don't want it.
It was dumb. We don't need to talk about the
bath out scene. It's fine.

(31:12):
Yeah. So with that being said this
weeks episodes there's mainly 2 sets of things that are going on
right? It's Luffy at the prison doing
his little training arc playing with the Beast Pirates and then
there's Zorro who is fighting toget his sword back.
Hold on, hold on. So when they reveal like the

(31:32):
whole essentially tournament arcslash training art for Luffy and
they're like, oh, we're going totake your C zone prison, you
know, thing off. My first thought was literally
like, so you're just like letting him out now, right?
Like he could slip out the trap that's on his neck now because
you took away the one thing holding it back.
Yes, in the sport of fairness. It absolutely looks like he

(31:55):
could just slide that collar up off his neck whole.
Ass could easily, yeah. The fact that he hasn't yet is
surprising. He's just being a good sport.
OK, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Didn't they say the collars wereexplosive?
They make that up. I think they have blades in them
somehow. They yeah, they like, it'll chop
their head off. Yeah, it's meant to.
Like if you go outside the ring it like circumcises your head

(32:17):
from your body. Yeah, I don't know.
They probably said something about trying to take it off and
it'll do the same thing too, butI don't remember.
OK, if it's an explosion, my brain is like, well, he's not
really level to be pulling that K me save kind of maneuver.
But if it's just the blade man, he's got the easy peasy.
What's he doing? But also.
Counterpoint, both of them can use hockey.
That's what I have to say. So couldn't they just armament

(32:38):
hockey around their neck and walk away?
That's what I'm thinking. Maybe hockey not that good.
Maybe hockey not that strong. I don't.
Know I don't fucking know, dude.When, when have you every single
instance we've seen hit, the man's been punching bullets made
of sea stone prism, which I don't even want to get into
that, but with hockey like you're you're going to tell me

(33:02):
that these blades suddenly are more more lethal than fucking
shoe sweep the fucking magic sword girl?
OK, well my brain's still thinking of like, bomb necklace
mode. Either way it's like this this
this collar poses such a non issue I think.
I don't know. It's a threat for the sake of
plot. Without sea stone cuffs.

(33:24):
Well, let's see here. Actually no, I was going to say
something and then that's been disproven.
Listen, my head cannon is maybe Boom 2 OP for hockey.
At least Louvie's hockey right now.
But it's not boom, it's slice. It's.
Yeah, yeah, it's a blade somehow.
Well then if my head cannon is correct then whatever.
Moot point. And if it's blade, circumcision,

(33:46):
collar, then what are we doing here?
Exactly. It's blade circumcision.
Agreed. Collar.
So it's. Yeah.
What are we doing, dude? Not that explosions have a
tendency to be doing things in this universe either, but.
Hey, kill Pedro. Look at pal.
Pedro's fine. Pedro's fine and he says.
Yeah, right. The will of P.
The will of P. People with the letter P in

(34:10):
their name that end up in explosions live.
There's Pell, there's Pagia, andthere's Pedro.
They're all alive. The day Roda brings back Pedro I
think will be a day in hell. I'm going to point the finger at
you and be like, look, you see? It I'm going to hit the fattest,
I told you so. Nobody on this podcast that

(34:34):
disagree with me was ever going to be able to live it down.
Same Preach. Then we're going to have to go
out and make a Wheel of Pea shirt.
Fine by me. No, I'm going to.
We're gonna make you guys fucking do an apology video.
Yeah, full on. Ukulele at all.

(34:59):
I want the whole fuck. Wait, hold on, This is good.
This is good content, so let's write that down.
What did we make our bet over? What was that?
What was our bet, Devin? What was our what was the bet
that we laid down? Which one?
We we laid down one recently where where one of us had to
make a YouTube apology and then the other.
I did like being a cheerleader. Oh, if Jim BAE is confirmed dead

(35:19):
or not, all right. And so far.
I'm glad you remember the terms.I remember that now that
Christian brought it up. I did not remember the the
actual bet. Yeah.
I believe you have to make a YouTube apology video and I have
to dress up in like a a maid outfit.
It was like a cheerleader outfitor something, I don't know.
Do we write that one down on thebottom of the sheet?

(35:39):
It's down there somewhere. Probably not.
Oh yes, steaks cheerleader outfit Devin versus YouTube
apology video Christian. Will Jim Bay die by the end of
the arc? Devin Christian, Will Jim Bay
die by the end of the arc? We probably met that in Whole
Cake. I was going to say, was that
supposed to be Whole Cake or wasthat or was that Wano?
That's feeling like a whole. Cake.

(36:00):
I think that was whole cake. Well, until I see him walking
around saying friendship or something and he's he's dead.
My boy is dead. Jim Bay is fine corpse.
We'll give it to the end of Wanoand then settle the score.
Yeah, we'll watch him not show up in Wano whatsoever.
And then I guess you got to makea YouTube apology video, bro,
no. No, no I don't.

(36:21):
It's not proven yet. Until facts are in.
The same way Pedro still could be alive.
Jimmy is alive until proven dead.
How many people know this? But Jim Bay's middle name is
Pedro. I should probably have come up

(36:42):
with a different name that wasn't AP.
Jim Bay's middle name is Patrick.
All right, now many people know this.
He's got the will of P2 all right.
I don't know. I don't know, buddy.
Oh God. Anyway, I'm here for Luffy's
little training arc thing that'sgoing on.

(37:02):
See, I'm not. The fights with the gifters are
just goofy enough that I'm like,all right, fine, I, I'm, I'm OK
with this. If it goes on much longer, then
maybe I'll start getting a little annoyed by it.
But for now, we've got this extra layer where Heo is going
to show him how to do Wano's version of hockey or I basically
what they use to make their swordsmanship better.
I was thinking too, as Luffy wasgoing through this whole thing

(37:25):
and he was talking about being able to punch somebody without
actually touching them. I was like, you need to be
talking to Zorro then about how he throws projectiles and shit.
Like, that's right, exactly whatyou're talking about right now.
Nah bro, it's not the same. And then he was basically shows
him the same thing where he says, yeah, we just kind of like
gather up our energy around our swords, but if you're good

(37:48):
enough, you could do it without using a sword too.
And then he just does it. I totally forgot.
Also that the other dude, what'sthe guy's name who was the
nephew of of Kizuru that we sentto Maru?
The red sumo wrestling axe guy. Oh yeah, with the Kuma drones we
haven't. Seen him in forever.
I forget. I forget their name constantly.
I don't Fucking I, I can never remember what those things are

(38:10):
called. What are they called?
Pacifistas. There we go.
Pacifistas. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
My brain immediately went to come but because Kuma but.
Brother. All right, enough of that.
Yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing sent to Maru again at some point
soon, ish, right? But anyway, Luffy's going to
learn how to do this version of whatever this is.
So like I'm in a similar boat where it's like, except for it's

(38:30):
already for me going on long enough.
Like it's, it was neat for the 1st 2 episodes, but now that
it's like kind of like, you know, 5, I'm like, OK, how long
are we going to milk this out for?
For bits of ah yes, he could seeinto the future.
Yes, he's just built different, you know what I mean?
Like it's how long are we going to milk the same frames of

(38:51):
watching a fucking alpaca and arm a dildo getting punched to
the ground? Arm a dildo.
Well, I think, I think we're done with them now, are we?
I don't know that. Well, the Apaca's trachea is
definitely blown to smithereens like.
Yeah, he oh definitely punched the shit out of that guy's
throat. That man's throat gone.
Trachea gone, eviscerated. Throat goat down, throw goat

(39:16):
down, RIP pouring out for the legend.
He's in alpaca. Excuse me, not a goat.
Yeah, like fucking Mortal KombatX-ray fucking just throat gone.
Yeah, I was going to. Say, is there not a part of you
that appreciates like truly experiencing the struggle with

(39:40):
Luffy of like, man, I'm just notgetting this.
I have to truly work hard to getto this thing.
OK, most of the time whenever like, like I'm going to use, you
know, Berserk for an example. You get 30 seconds.
Like, you know where it's like where it's training to get like
an upgrade, it has to feel like you earned it at the end.
This one, it's just it's the quintessential.

(40:02):
If I run at the wall hard enough, the wall will fall down.
I I don't know, it just it's notthe same feeling.
I mean, it's not I don't think that's entirely true.
Like it's not bad. It's not bad for one piece, but
from a media standpoint, I'm like, this is just all right.
When's he going to get it? Because like most of the time,
like they don't even tell you what like in like other shows,

(40:23):
they don't even tell you what the upgrade's going to be until
it's revealed. This one, it's like we know
exactly what he's trying to do and he's just brute forcing it,
which is on brand. Not saying it's not on brand,
it's not in character, but it's just like, OK, what are we, what
are we going to just just do it?You're almost there, buddy.
You did it a little bit right there.
Just just hit harder. And it's just like I'm, I'm over

(40:45):
it, you know, I. Mean.
I mean, I don't know. It doesn't, I don't think it
feels exactly like what you're talking about to me where he's
just getting, he's just going tokeep punching until he gets it.
He he has been just punching andhe's not getting it.
He's now has to have a he's got this teacher that's going to
come by. He's got.
Yoda on the backpack, bro. Yeah, like literally just got

(41:06):
Yoda. It's just another training
episode to me and it's just like, meh, It's no different
than watching the flashbacks with him with Rayleigh again.
It's like, OK, I get to watch the same thing over again but a
different old man OK, neat. That wasn't fair.
I'm not. I'm not here to change your
mind. I'm just underwelt with it,

(41:27):
that's all. I'm more interested in the Kappa
right now in my head. Kawamatsu.
Like that has me going like, yeah, say more.
Or when Zorro was like wait are black blades pause pause pause
and then never elaborate on it again.
Yeah, one day we'll learn something about that.

(41:47):
Really. Really.
Really left you on a solid cliffhanger.
I already got a theory cooking in my head.
Oh, do tell. What makes a black blade is a
swordsman permanently sticking his hockey inside of a blade.
That's my current theory. We've talked about this already.
This isn't new what we've mentioned this.
Before we probably mentioned this back when during the Pika

(42:08):
fight. Maybe you weren't there, I don't
know. This is when I would have
imagined this guy brought up where I would have brought it
up. I lose.
Wasn't me. This is definitely a topic that
we've talked about. I guess maybe you weren't there
for it, which kind of surprises me, so I guess I mentioned it.
But like, what if it's like their soul beings?
Like soul trapped in inside of it?
That that would be sick. That could be that could be a
thing. That would be metal as fuck, no

(42:29):
pun intended. Right?
We kind of see, it feels to me like in the scene with Zorro
doing his purgatory onigiri thatthey're loosely trying to show
you that Zorro has inadvertentlydiscovered this version of what
Heo is talking about with his swords.
Because they make that same sortof pinkish aura that Heo gets in

(42:51):
his hand around Zorro and his swords.
It's just rudimentary and not refined.
Like it's all, it's not refined to just the swords.
Like it flares off of him like an aura and he wastes a lot of
the energy probably. So we just need someone to teach
him to refine that and be more accurate with it.
But I mean, on that front, so wedon't get a lot of Zorro scenes

(43:13):
because he's kind of wandered off and he's doing his own thing
here. But also.
When did he get a sword stolen? They kind of just like he
disappeared and then he's like ow, where am I sword?
And I'm like. OK, so I'm not crazy.
Yeah, I'm not crazy too, right? Yeah, for thinking that got off
screen right. I thought I missed something.
That absolutely got off screen. OK this probably happened to me
back in like 2016 when this got released or whatever year it was

(43:36):
when I was like did I miss something last week?
When did you get a stolen? When did you get robbed?
No, Yeah, yeah, I was. I was going to bring it up
because I, I'm confused. Like did I miss something?
No, because I know I've been gone for many moons, but like, I
know I haven't been on that long.
No, you missed not. You missed nothing.
The law. I was like, did he lose it when

(43:57):
he was at the gambling house with Yasui or Yasui, whatever
this guy's name is? No, he should he he gets to
Ebisu village with Yasu and he'schilling there and sometime
between then and Law, Sanji, Frankie and Usop showing up, he
gets his sword stolen off screenand Yasu just tells us that it
got stolen and he ran off to find the guy.

(44:17):
That's it. That's.
Breezy. That's all you get.
Well, I found the guy and he's acool looking guy.
Yeah, he's a Luke goblin. I don't.
Remember the guy's name though. I can't wait for him to become
friend. He's actually he's low key a
bridge troll. He is actually a bridge troll.
He's the grumpy old Luke goblin underneath the bridge.
And so my riddles 3 and you get to pass by me.

(44:38):
Yeah, but I respect him because he's like, yo, why do you have
this like legit national treasure?
There's no logical reason any person could deduce of how you
got shoe sweet other than like grave robbing.
And Zorro for whatever reason just has this position of like,
well I know I didn't commit thiscrime you're accusing me of.

(44:58):
So like I don't have to defend myself because I know I'm right.
I don't give a fuck what you think.
What is he? British.
Well, to be fair, he got the sword from the sword's owner.
Yeah, he didn't grave Rob Shoe. Sweet.
It may have initially been stolen by somebody, but
eventually it found its way to the actual owner and then the

(45:20):
owner gave it to him. All I'm saying is Zorro has
committed no crime. I mean, I agree.
I agree with you in a weird roundabout way he just can't
prove. It now the problem is that Zorro
has no desire to like, defend himself in a meaningful way.
He's just like, I didn't do it. Oh well, if you don't believe
me, that's your problem. I'm giving back my sword.
Well, I look, this is the stancethat Zora would probably take in

(45:41):
most situations. Correct.
And it's so annoying because what are we doing, bro?
In this one case, how the fuck is he even going to defend
himself? How do you even begin to
describe that? The fact that the soul, the body
of this warrior was stolen and the soul of my friend was put
inside of it. And somebody else, a third party

(46:02):
stole the sword and gave it to this entity that has the soul of
my friend, but the body of Ryuma.
And I fought that guy and Ryuma gave me the sword after I kind
of defeated him, but also not really.
Especially with Devil Fruit technically being also a foreign
idea in this region as well. Yes.
All right. Devin got me on that one.

(46:22):
Devin got me. Zorro has no way of describing
it as anything other than ninjutsu or magic bullshit to to
this guy. I feel like it would be the
equivalent of like trying to explain the Internet to a
Penguin. Yeah, describe CVS to a caveman.
That's what we're trying to do right now.

(46:43):
No, no, no. I'm I'm trying to talk to
Penguins about the technology behind Internet accident.
Do you know about your dial up speeds and how you can improve
them, Mr. Penguin? Have you been investing in your
401K? Do you or a loved one may have
been exposed to meselothelioma? Call JG Wentworth. 877 something

(47:12):
now. Cash now. 8777 Cash Now 877 Cash
No. Wait, we don't get paid by them?
Quit. It's up as a cash.
No, quit. We don't get paid by that.
Yeah. So yeah, I mean, now the scenes
of him fighting, Pretty badass. Oh the animation.
Fucking I love it when I see anime characters explode into

(47:33):
squares. Yeah, and everything's so flowy
and like like an art piece. And then like the ground always
breaks up into cubes. I love that shit.
Yeah, I love when it goes on Minecraft and shit.
Set that dynamite off. But you hit them so hard they
hit blocks mode. Yeah.
Yes, Sir. That shit's awesome.

(47:53):
Go watch season like 3 and four of My Hero Academia.
Or Naruto at any point. Yeah, Naruto during the Pain
arc. So many cubes.
Just all of the planetary cubes.Planetary Cuba station.
Brothers, I'm sure you can imagine.
A cube? Yeah, it's square.

(48:15):
It's 3 dimensional. How horny Justin was in the year
2016 or whatever year this episode came out.
Horny for the cube? God, I had a raging boner for
Zorro. Oh.
OK. For Zorro.
For all of it, everything these these set of episodes.
Watching Zorro go crazy against Mr. Commazo here.
My man, in my opinion, willinglytook the sights to the shoulder

(48:36):
just so he had his third weapon of choice and then absolutely
proceeded to beat the brakes offthis man in the two V1.
Because no one expects the One V1 ever in any universe
apparently bro. Nah, we're here to win.
My man said he would run the fade, just give him a second.
There's a line apparently. Nah, I was just waiting.
He's like, you're unguarded. He's like, would you stop?

(48:57):
He's like, this is the only way to win in battle.
I must catch you. Your least expecting moment.
Yeah. And then I don't know where he
just, like, walks off. And I'm like, oh, oh, now that
he finishes 1V1 and it's your turn, you're like, Nah, I'm,
I'm, I'm, I'm gonna go on and get out of here.
Bro Zorro fainted. The guy walked away before
Zorro. Fainted.
He knew Zorro was on his last legs.

(49:18):
He saw the look in that man's eye and was like, this man ain't
a problem no more. Zorro was the equivalent of
anime edging. I would ask you to elaborate,
but please don't. I mean, look at it.
Well, I'm looking. Respectfully, I'm looking.
Look at all the fight scenes, every single fight scene we've
had. No, you're not.
It's like that moment right before you hit that climax.

(49:39):
You're almost there, you're almost 100% satisfied, but then
you stop. They always stop.
And then it's 700 more episodes of just jerking it until you get
to the next Tesoro One Piece fight scene where it's beautiful
and it's even better than the last time and you're almost
there. And then and they finish it and
then they, you know, do it. It's the same process.
The Zorro fights are just edgingfor anime.

(50:00):
I would. Agree with like I.
Don't know man, I I fully climaxpersonally.
That's because you're weak in will.
You know, he just knows what he likes.
I'm gonna roll it back to the part where Devin was excited

(50:20):
about a Kappa showing up. I too was also excited to hear
that the guy that we've been seeing kind of in the prison
camp with Luffy was or he's going to turn out to be a Kappa.
This guy Kawamatsu, that's. Going to be so fucking cool.
I can't wait to see what he actually looks like because they
shadow him over even in Hiori's back story and everything too.

(50:42):
He's going to look so fucking stupid.
Well I can't wait for you guys to be met with the most average
looking dude and he's not a Kappa at all.
Nah, he got them lips. He better have that fucking bowl
on top of his head. Nah bro, y'all y'all about to be
so red herring. It's not.
It's crazy. He's going to be the weirdest
looking fucking dude on the planet and it's going to be
great. And I'm going to love it.
But he won't be a Kappa. Don't you fucking dare.

(51:03):
Shut your God damn mouth. Shut the fuck up.
Fucking piece of shit. Listen here, you motherfucker.
I'm going to jump over this table for the second time in
this episode. Tables flipped over, I'm
crawling under. It.
Yeah, I'm excited. I want to see it.
Bad that Kappa. I can't wait.
I can't wait for him to do the swish, swish because he's going

(51:25):
to have a sword. For damn sure he's going to have
a sword, right? Now he spits on people too.
Like the alpaca, but he uses bones.
Yo. That's why they don't give him
the fish bones. What if he uses a bow?
That'd be cool, right? We don't have bow users in this
world. Like he's a range specialist.
Yeah, that would be unusual for a Kappa, but I would take that
right also given how fucked up the lore of Kappas.

(51:47):
Oh no no the the 9 Akazaya samurai have to all be sword
users. Bro what is this?
It's a sword that's also a bow. I mean samurai.
Known for using their bows. Not in my head cannon.
Samurai did use bows a lot it's true.
They had those big fuck off longbows.
Yeah, the big bow. Yeah, they're like taller than
them. The one you have to do squats to

(52:08):
shoot and it's like a full body thing, it's like. £500 bow and.
They're like, yo, and it's yeah,I want to shoot one of those
bows. Those things.
Fuck sick. God it's so badass.
I think that'll be fun. That'll be a fun day.
But anyway, given the lore of the Kappas, like for the the
actual lore behind Kappas, kind of terrifying.

(52:30):
See, I don't know much about them except for, you know.
All they're fucking weird. Like most Japanese mythos, which
is just this thing be fucking weird and doing weird shit.
Yeah, like Kappas are some of the weirdest, the weirdest out
there though. Like in terms of what they look
like to the shit they get up to,Kappas are Kappas are pretty up

(52:51):
there on that spectrum. I'm willing to bet that Gabe
will talk about it in the fact, so I'm not going to say too
much. In case he doesn't, I will
elaborate later. But for now, just know that
Kappa's like to do a lot of weird shit.
Some innocent stuff, but a lot of weird stuff too.
Yeah, they like to do their nae,nae they.
Watch me whip, watch me nae nae.Can we also talk about that

(53:16):
weird little moment Zorro and a Komarosaki had?
Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm thinking, I'm thinking my girl,
he or we got a thing for Zorro and I can't blame her.
No fucking shit, look at his biceps.
Yeah. Yeah, Is she the way she was
looking at him? Bro, I can't wait for her to
gaze upon his titties. She's so used to dealing with
snakes, once she sees his pythons, damn it's over.

(53:39):
Sir, they're gorillas. OK, names them one and two.
That's true. She's moving up to a different
jungle animal. Yeah, but she wants them around
her throat or something like that because she's like that.
I don't know. Look at them pythons.
I don't know what you're talkingabout.
She was just, she was just getting warm because it's cold
outside and the fire is not enough.
But why they why they gotta look, you know, fucking kawaii
as a cute little family in a poor house.

(54:01):
Like why? Why?
Because they do, man. I'm looking at you, ODA.
I'm looking at you. This is officially the future I
want for Zorro. See, after seeing all the weird
shit I've been looking at all like 2 weeks with like the the
choices that Oda's made, I'm just gonna leave it like that.
The choices he's made and now he's doing something wholesome.
I see what you're doing. You can't pull the wool over my

(54:23):
eyes. That's all right.
Zorro this is the way. Gets you a 26 year olds Princess
or heir to the throne type thing.
Zorro's gonna ruin it when he wakes up.
That's gonna be great. Bastard child subplotch Toko.
Unrelated to them in any regard.OK hot take, hot take Endovuano.

(54:47):
I want Zorro to stay behind on the island.
Cap not happening. That's a very hot take.
Want and or will are two different things.
Should I call it a prediction? I don't think either of those
two are true anyway. Exactly.
Nobody wants that. Zorro deserves a happy life with
a happy wife on the island of Wano.

(55:07):
Sure. No, Zorro deserves to get his
dream fulfilled by being the best swordsman in the world.
He can come back after he does that.
Exactly. OK, you're right, but like I
just want to see him and Kiori together.
I just want to see his back story.
That too. That's tough.
He'll be waiting a long time, buddy.
Because they made it look like they were going to like start

(55:28):
like revealing shit in this weekwhere he's like, you're not from
Wano and he like gave have a look and it's like not like
that. You thought that was going to be
a signal for more Zorro back story?
I could dream. You sure can, if just a could.
Goon to the fucking sword fight.I could goon to the plot.
Goon to the idea of Zorro back story exactly like I.

(55:52):
Still wanna know where is your eye bud?
Where is it? Also the fact that every single
time when it's like his first person perspective and it's only
the one eyelid opening that's fucking meant just a.
Little nod. We love that.
We love continuity. Love it.
Every time chef's kiss. But with that being said, I mean
we we've been referring to it, but Komarosaki reveals that she

(56:15):
is in fact the younger sister now much older looking with the
time wibbly wobbly timey. Why me stuff?
What? No.
She's actually the younger sister of Momonosuke.
Her name is Kiori. What?
Christian, you got to come cleanbro.

(56:36):
You will got to come clean to the audience.
What do you mean? Just tell them.
Just tell them that you've watched One Piece already, that
you're caught up your current you've been strategically
skipping these spoiler cast as afacade because you can't keep
making these predictions, OK? Yeah, OK.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hold on.
You're right. I am sorry.
I'm sorry that your show's too fucking predictable and I can

(56:57):
guess it with my eyes closed andasleep.
Do it to him. Put him in a coffin.
I'm sorry that Ona has run out of ideas because there are no
original ones left in the world.Nah, bro.
And I'm, I'm left with this, Chief.
I know what you are, Christian. You can't lie to me.
Not anymore. I'm tired of hiding Ona.

(57:21):
I know you're listening. Tell your story, Queen.
Tell your story. Sing it to the choir.
Maybe on the court. Maybe on the court.
One V1 to 10. We're gonna play fucking horse
and whoever loses gets to control one piece of plot and.
Owns one piece. I'll show you how to how to

(57:43):
finish this baby off. First thing we had death.
Actual deaths. First things first, Pedro's
coming back and then die in the next episode.
For real. For real, I'm God.
No censorship, nothing. But yeah, so I'm glad we got
that little bit of little bit more information and it was

(58:06):
obvious that Kumarasaki was going to be somewhat important.
So now I'm just wondering what Kyoshiro's importance is going
to be and who he's going to be relevant to because obviously he
helped her get away. How he did that, who knows?
OK, what? Is.
What if? What if he actually cut her?
Or he tried. I'm sure he did.
She, being the daughter of a samurai and maybe Kawamatsu

(58:27):
taught her a thing or two. Did did you know?
Did did a sleight of hand faked it?
Clearly, obviously she faked it in some capacity.
Maybe it was a ketchup packet all along, I don't know.
Or fake blood from something else.
It was wine all along. Yeah, something like that, I
think. Kyoshiro is just straight up
that dude who just wants to killpeople, kill things, and that's
someone else. And you're full of.

(58:49):
It I think someone else helped Kiori get away from this
predicament. So you think Kyoshiro actually
meant to kill her? 100% that man has the
bloodthirst just dripping off him.
I mean he dug out the crazy lookat his eye, but also Komarosaki
had been has been acting up to this point too and doing a
fantastic job of playing that stuck up courtesan that just

(59:12):
fucks with dudes all the time all.
Right here's my hot sake. You can fake being rich and
famous in vain and all that kindof jazz.
You can't fake crazy, bro. You can't fake that.
You can't teach that, and you'rebored with the.
Counterpoint Crazy loves a bit though.
Crazy. She loves a bit.
What does it even mean? I feel like he can be crazy, but

(59:32):
also so be on the good guy's side.
That's. What I mean he loves the bit
like oh we faking your death nowbet.
All right, say less. It's a no for me too.
How deep you want me to stab you?
And she's like what the fuck? Stab me?
That's not part of. This we got to make it look
convincing. It's like that D&D story that

(59:57):
you see on like fake Tumblr posts where it's like, ah yes,
the necromancer that follows serial killers victims around,
reviving them and telling them, hey, pretend like nothing
happened. Yeah, to drive the serial killer
insane. Really.
Gaslight on. Yeah, gaslight like this is
that, this is that Komerosaki, listen to me be be real with me.

(01:00:20):
I'm going to pretend to kill youand you're going to pretend to
be dead, but then you're going to come back and pretend like it
never happened. Clearly something went wrong
somewhere along the line that this assassin guy is chasing
her, by the way. Well, I don't know what's up
with that. Well, yeah, giggle pants over
there is, you know, too loud. Do you mean the guy trying to
kill her? No, I think he means Oh Toko,
but honestly both fit here. Oh yeah.

(01:00:42):
Fair, Yeah. Giggle pants is the the real
target, not the blue haired. Oh yeah, yeah, Toko, it's really
the target, not Hiyori, honestly.
That's like the whole thing. They even said it.
He even said it. He's like if if she if her laugh
was annoying quote. Well, that's what got them in
trouble in the 1st place. But then Komoraki defended her.
Yeah. And then and then he was like,

(01:01:02):
she'd be laughing. I don't like that.
Yeah, time to swish slash slush.Yeah, no, I think Evans Cook, I
think like Hiyori is technicallylike a fugitive or whatever and
we gotta capture her or kill her, but like the target is
really Otoko. Portoko.
Actually. Or Toko indeed.
Also I remember thinking when I first watched this series around

(01:01:24):
I thought Toko's laugh was annoying and obviously that's by
design. No, it's a vibe.
It's. Kind of grown on me.
She's adorable, dude. It's a vibe I relate too heavily
to Otoko. That's just me at work.
Laughing the pain away. Yeah, yeah.
Oh, crazy customers mad at the the fact that we don't sell
milk. Yeah, you're right.
It does suck. Your life sucks.

(01:01:46):
Go to the next one down the street.
There's 80 gas stations. Stop fucking complaining.
I'm. Sorry, the lighters are only
$0.75 and not $0.50. Inflations a motherfucker, ain't
it? Exactly.
Atoko is a vibe. Yeah, I'm here for Atoko.
I'd work with Atoko. I'd work with her all right.

(01:02:08):
Any other last minute burning thoughts and questions about
these episodes? I hate Lin Lin being hungry.
It's the same hunger pain shit again all over again.
Yeah, I, yeah, I don't. I don't want it.
I hate any time we flashback to them.
Pretty much. Instead of wedding cake, it's
now red beans. Red bean soup, baby.
It's it beans? Everybody wants their hands on
that red bean soup. Garbage.

(01:02:30):
Tama wants it. Oh you know what?
I do have something to say. Yo, whoever fucked up my boys
Beppo, you don't know what's coming for your ass.
The whole gang coming for you. Oh.
Poor Beppo. Beppo don't deserve the smoke.
And the whole gang is one guy. It's one guy and me, because I'm
coming for you ask. No one puts Beppo in the corner.

(01:02:52):
Yeah, it was sad. I don't want, I don't like
seeing Beppo all fucked up like that, man.
Poor Beppo. Although on a on a side side
note, when during like that whole like argument between law
and them right where they're like Oh well to be fair you know
she's been waiting for like 20 years right?
For this whole rebellion. I'm like technically no, the
fuck she hasn't. Yes, she has.

(01:03:13):
What do you mean? What didn't she get?
Time. No, she did not.
No. Oh, I thought she's been around.
Oh. OK, in my head I thought she got
time blipped. No, no, no, no.
And so I was like, it's been like a year.
Shut the fuck up. No, that's all natural aging,
baby. That's all natural, Yeah.
That's all natural. She's a perfectly natural,
mature, attractive woman. In a really weird and maybe

(01:03:37):
sexist twist of fate, only the men went forward in time.
And only men, no women. SUS Yeah 4 blips 4 blips forward
Kenny Mullen, Rizzo, Conjuro andMomonosuke.
Also, you know, before he already explained it, I was
thinking to myself, man, it's really fucked up that like she
stayed behind and then she explained the like, all the

(01:03:57):
belief is that like, we shouldn't have both of the heirs
in the same room and God forbid something goes wrong.
I'm like, OK, yeah, I hear you. But you left the daughter in a
burning building. How she got out, you know?
I know they explained the Kawamatsu saved her, but like
before Kawamatsu gets there. I'm just here like hello, what
are we doing? Here's what I think happened,
Right. OK, Mom.

(01:04:18):
Mom wanted mom. Mom, we needed to blip forward
as many people as possible to ensure that the rebellion will
happen in the future. But she left one, in this case
Kiori, because she needed somebody to eat her heart, to
take on the time time fruit for her.

(01:04:38):
No shot bro. ODA is not that metal.
ODA is not that metal to make a six year old girl eat her
mother's heart, bro. And what, are we fucking like
Aaron Yeager ING this shit now? Are we just stealing everything
from Attacking Titan? I think he or I think, I think
ODA had a six year old girl eat her mother's heart so that she

(01:04:59):
could get the time time fruit and then and then escape so that
the time time fruit could be used in the future for some
reason. You don't even believe people
die in the show. We believe a six year old girl's
going to eat her mom's heart. It wasn't a flashback.
It's different. Anything's game in a flashback.
You're what? It was a flashback, it could

(01:05:21):
have happened. I think he always got the time
time fruit. Y'all are insane.
Or whatever the fuck it was called.
It was called the time time fruit, right?
We're going to say it's the time.
Time fruit. Sure.
Ah, that is fascinating. What the fuck?
You know, I'm down with this theory.
I'm down with that. I also, Speaking of flashing
back, can we talk about the factof how like, you know, as they

(01:05:43):
were describing her escape from the the castle, How she casually
got drowned? No, she was fine.
Yeah, but she was definitely drowning as they were swimming
underwater for a long period of time.
That's fine. That's why Kamatsu was telling
her to be patient, to hold her breath.
Like when I when I heard that line like be patient, be

(01:06:03):
patient. It's like the moment where
you're hovering the fucking holding a fucking pillow over
you. The PCs power button during It's
going to be over soon. Wait, just be patient.
This is one of the things that kappas are known for too.
Is just like slowly. Crowded children.
Yeah, just like slow. Well, like people in general.
The entire time you were talkingabout it, I in my head I was
like, I think one of the the facts I remember was that they

(01:06:25):
just like to drown kids. No, no, I think it's
specifically women, not even kids.
But ah, either way just makes itdoubly worse.
That is a small girl, but yeah. Oh.
That's hilarious. That's it for me all.
Right, cool. If there's nothing else, then
we're going to move on to Gabe'sFun Facts segment, baby.

(01:06:50):
Does this sound cute? Play in anyone else's head when
you say that games fun. Facts.
It doesn't because I always forget it because it's so new.
With Brendan being absent, I will take on the role of of fun
fact reader. So here we go.
Here we go. Hello, this is Gabriel speaking
to you from the corner of a street begging.

(01:07:11):
Unfortunately, after escaping the Orochi Oniwa Banshu,
somebody came and asked could I spare some change for gas.
I need to get myself away from this place now.
I said yeah, what a concept, andthen he robbed me.
That's crazy. Oh well, anyway, Togo seems to
really like Kappas, so why don'twe talk about them here?

(01:07:32):
Oh boy. The Kappa, whose names translate
literally to River Child, is among the most popular types of
yokai in Japanese mythology, alongside the tengu and Oni.
They're typically depicted as reptilian humanoids who live by
rivers and are said to cause allkinds of trouble for people who
approach these rivers, such as drowning them and eating them
alive. That's just the start, buddy.

(01:07:56):
They're basically the early explanation for why bad things
happen when people don't respectrivers and are meant to scare
children from playing too much in them so they don't
accidentally drown. Though because they were treated
as real beings, they were also given other trace.
They were said to know Japanese very well.
They played in local sports games, they farted loudly in
public, they picked up women's kimonos, they assaulted women

(01:08:21):
who swam in rivers. They removed an imaginary
internal organ called the Shirikodama from their victims
anuses. Oh no, not that one.
And also ate them. Dung Eater No.
But they also like cucumbers. So anyway, not spoil anything,

(01:08:42):
but the only traits that Kawamatsu shares in common with
these creatures is appearance and the ability to speak
Japanese. Oh man, you meet that mean?
You're telling me he doesn't have a bowl of water on his
head? That's disappointing.
He missed another one which is like he also drowns a child.
Yeah, he also drowns a child, almost allegedly.
Allegedly. There's no receipts.

(01:09:02):
She lived. What are we talking about?
She only drowned a little bit. You.
Could drown and be resuscitated.His birthday is also on July
14th, which is World Cucumber Day.
Incredible. I wish to move on now.
Doesn't seem to be a whole lot more though.
How about oh I know in this set?Batman Returns, as they say.

(01:09:25):
Disgusting. Hell yeah.
Not only that, but his trusty sidekick Gazelle Man 2.
The go. Almost No, He's a gazelle, get
it right? Almost exactly 1 year after this
episode was released, it was officially announced that One
Piece's manga sales had surpassed the lifelong sales of
Batman, the comic book character, not the character in

(01:09:48):
this show with at the time 490,000,000 issues sold as
compared to Batman's 460 million.
If you're curious, One Piece is now sold 578,000,000 copies and
is only behind the sales of Superman at 600 million, whose
comics may I remind you, have been running for nearly 100

(01:10:08):
years. Holy fuck Superman has been
around for 100 years. We come in for that ass
Superman. Watch your back.
God damn. All right.
Wow, that sure is impressive. Perhaps in this context one
could take Luffy easily beating Batman and Gazelle Man here as a
clever metaphor for One Piece surpassing the old guard and
becoming a new representative ofthe comic Indian.

(01:10:31):
What this is this is the mom going to animate differences
section. Wait wait, wait, wait.
You don't mean That's right, thereturn of Batman and Gazelle Man
and Luby's fight against them isentirely made-up now.
Not to take anything away, but these characters have never
shown up again in the manga after kidnapping Tama, and they

(01:10:52):
certainly didn't return here in the prison.
Wow, they're basically filler characters at this point.
Is Gazelle Man supposed to be the Flash?
If Batman is supposed to be Batman, yes.
Sure, I would say so. Wally.
No, I don't. I don't know that Batman is
supposed to be the Batman like Gotham Knight, but Justice?
Sure, it's close enough. Justice.
JJ's for Kiori, Where is he? For some reason the difference

(01:11:18):
is in this set, while few are actually weirdly significant.
So let's tackle them now. Remember, Bear Man, everybody
loves Bear Man. You love Bear Man, don't you?
ODA doesn't love bear Man. Every scene with bear Man is
made-up. Bear Man isn't real.
Sad face. Did you know that bear claws
aren't actually retractable? Toy gave Bear Man the ability to

(01:11:40):
attract his claws, even though bears can't do that.
See. So Bear Man sucks, right?
Yeah. No, I'm still sad.
Also, this is a somewhat niche reference, but seeing the guy
inside the bear suit like that made me think of the horror film
Midsomar. Oh no.

(01:12:02):
I couldn't stop thinking about it.
That entire fight. For anyone in the know, you know
I can explain no more without spoiling that movie.
All right, Alpaca Man and Armadillo Man caught.
What am I writing? Alpaca Man and Armadillo Man
teaming up for a final finishingmove is made in the manga.
They are simply defeated and thestory moves on.

(01:12:23):
Here's another thing Toby added.That's really bizarre.
Do you remember Alpaca Man spitting Hockey imbued spit at
Luffy for an attack? Oh, I did.
How amusing. Right?
Now, audience participation time.
I want you to stop and think about the fact that Alpaca Man
has the ability to imbue Hockey into a spit and launch it.

(01:12:47):
We can throw hockey, Alpaca man.Haven't we seen someone do?
We've seen someone throw hockey laden things before, right?
I know this has happened. Oh fucking Katakuri can do it.
He's a little bit stronger than Al Pac-Man I would hope.
But yeah anyway. Needless to say this has never

(01:13:09):
happened in the manga where Al Pac-Man simply attacks Luffy
with swords. Luffy also never deflects sea
stone bullets with hockey coatedarms as Toy's addition.
That has wild implications, but I need to move on as Devin was
talking about earlier and also avoided the topic.
Right. Well, good for you, Devin.
It was not even cannon. Right.
I'm not crazy. I'm not crazy.

(01:13:30):
At least it wasn't Canon I guess.
Thank God. It's yeah, completely yeah.
And then hopefully we never comeback to this again.
Side Eyes Toy Toy continues upscaling Zorro by making him
immediately come to the conclusion that Kiku Nojo might
be related to Kiku, which he never said in the manga.

(01:13:51):
Thanks for spelling it out for Devin Moss.
Head. Are you catching a stray here?
Wait, who we talking about? So there's the point where Kiori
mentioned is like going outlining the 9 Akazaya and she
says Kiku Nojo and that makes Zorro think of Kiku.

(01:14:15):
I think Gabriel is asserting that Zorro thinks Kiku Nojo is
just related to Kiku, not that Kiku Nojo is Kiku which would be
very Zorro of him. Finally, Orochi heavily grieving
being over Hiyori's death is never actually shown in the
manga, though it is offhandedly mentioned by Kyoshio that he's

(01:14:36):
quote in a bad mood. Personally I hope he keeps being
in that mood. Me too.
Or Which is fucking annoying. Also side note that weird zoom
in on Kyoshio losing his mind that the anime keeps doing is
mostly made-up by Toy. Don't get me wrong, he's very
mentally unstable in the manga too, but he didn't laugh before
slashing Hiyori and he didn't turn into the Joker upon seeing

(01:14:57):
the rebellion symbol. I honestly don't know why they
keep doing that. I don't know either, but it's
I'm fine. He's got that crazy in him and
I'm here for it, seeing it anyway.
You got that dog in him. Before we end off, I want to say
three more things. First, the incredible fight
scene with Zoram Kamazo was primarily animated by Takashi
Kojima and Katsumi Ishizuka, whoalso animated the final Gatling

(01:15:20):
barrage against Rob Lucci all the way back in any's lobby.
Wow, talk about job security on.Those guys.
This sequence was incredibly well received at the time it
came out until we kept expandingon the animation techniques used
in this sequence to make success, though.
I'll discuss that when it becomes relevant.
Look out for that exploding block effect.

(01:15:41):
They love that one. Gabe is talking about all of the
things we talked about today andI love it.
I love that we are so In Sync with our fat guy this week.
I feel so seen. I know.
Secondly, I need to clarify this.
Rio is just armament hockey. It gets confused as the official

(01:16:01):
name for advanced armament hockey because that's the
context in which it's introduced, but it's not.
It's just a wano name for armament hockey.
That is it. There's nothing deeper.
Do they even address it by that name?
Rio and I just don't remember I.Vaguely remember that word being
said. OK, so I'm I'm just not
remembering it then. I may have glossed over it.

(01:16:23):
I vaguely remember that word being said too.
But maybe I don't know things. Maybe I know too much.
I don't know. Don't trust me?
I mean, you definitely know too much for someone who spoils shit
all the time, that much is certain.
And for someone who also gives their own, you know, what ifs?
Yeah, well that's good to know. I'm assuming if Gabriel is
telling us that it's just never truly addressed in the show or

(01:16:44):
manga. Then lastly, to unfortunately
end this on a sadder note, the voice actor for Kyogro
unfortunately passed away on the29th of November 2025.
No, dude. Yeah, I you forwarded this to
us, I think earlier in the week,I think.
You're right, actually. Forgot about it, no.

(01:17:07):
Yeah, which actor? The voice actor for Old Man Heo.
That's the the short guy, right?Yes, yes, the short guy with the
blue and pink Lotus tattoos. RIP.
He also voiced T-bone by CaptainT-bone.
Vice Admiral T-bone. So besides Kyogo, he was also
notable for voicing the narratorin Yuyu Hakasho, Suchi Kage

(01:17:28):
Onoki in Naruto and both Akuma and Am Bison, and various Street
Fighter and Marvel Versus Capcomgames.
His great work has brought the world great joy over many years,
and that joy will be the legacy he leaves behind.
May he rest in peace. RP the go.
Anyways, that's all for this week.
My constant begging has accumulated me a whopping $10.

(01:17:49):
Damn, that's impressive. I shall go buy myself a single
Big Mac with that money because that's all I can afford in this
economy. Merry Christmas.
Happy holidays to you all. I'll see you guys next week.
Have a nice day. Have a nice day.
Another banger of a fax section.Thank you, Gabriel.
And with that, we'll move on to the episodes for next week.

(01:18:13):
What are we doing next week? He who has spoiled shall not
continue without proper atonement as punishment for his
crimes. I got a pillar shall cast the
next set of episodes to be OK. Moving on to quotes.

(01:18:35):
I'm not. OK this is like a really dumb
and lame quote but like Justin back in the day really was
really enamoured with the voice acting slash just like just the
name of purgatory onigiri like some about that just like
tickled my brain real good and appreciated it.

(01:18:56):
Three Swords style. I think that's just where the

(01:19:17):
edge hit like the the peak for you.
Very fair. Listen, it worked.
And then after that bust. The only quote I've got is from
Chiori. She's talking to Zorro and she's
finished addressing him as someone not from Wano.
Something along the effect of like, oh, you're not from Wano,
but you know, honestly you don'tlook like such a bad a bad per

(01:19:42):
bad person. So I was like, say it with a
straight face, just say it normal.
What's wrong? I assumed from the way you
dressed that you were a samurai of Wano, but it would seem
you're from overseas. You don't look like a bad
person, you look very friendly. Liar.

(01:20:05):
I'm sorry. It tickled me.
Yeah, actually why can't she saythe word person reimplying the
was not a person. He's an animal.
Also like side quote that made me giggle to Otoko explaining
her joke about her name, where Oh yeah, she she goes through
the whole routine of oh, she putmy name's Toko.
But if you put an O in the frontof it, like the honor if

(01:20:25):
normally would be, it means boy,but I'm a girl.
And she starts laughing hysterically and she's like, do
you get it? Is that funny?
And so I was like, no, no, it wasn't.
Say Mr. Samadai, my name is Toko, but when you put an O in
front like other girls names, that sounds like I'm a boy,
isn't that so? Funny.

(01:20:46):
Nope, not really. Maybe it's not funny because
Zorro can't read. Maybe, maybe it just doesn't
actually know what she's talkingabout.
Atoka, what the fuck? Yeah.
I don't think you need to read to understand the joke though.
Also for quotes, got to put thatlittle it's not really a quote,
it's more of just a facial expression of just her reacting
to hearing that dog storm and the cat are coming.

(01:21:08):
Oh, when she was like really happy and her eyes got all big.
Yeah, big eyes, you know, bitingthe lip like.
So, Zorro Gioro, if I may ask you, who's here to help prepare
for the big uprising? There's a few of us.
What? So the doggy and the Kitty are

(01:21:28):
with you as well. Yeah, what's with that face?
I am. Just so happy.
Adorable. Yeah.
All right, moving on to the Golden Ham.
Like it's an obvious one, right?Is it an obvious one?

(01:21:49):
Zorro. Yeah.
It's Kappa, no? No, I'm kidding.
It's Zorro. Not yet.
It will have this time. Yeah, I was going to say, it's
Zorro. It's got to be Zorro reason #2
why Zorro gets it. Homies can't read.
I can settle for old man heel runner up because I can accept

(01:22:09):
that. My vote was going to be for
alpaca man, for hockey laden Spig.
That's that Man's clearly more powerful than any of us know.
If he wasn't as gross as he is Iwould agree, but my first
interaction of seeing him spit on Luffy multiple times.
Yeah, like a lot. Yeah, he gives me the ick.

(01:22:30):
Yeah, maybe one day I'll pack. A man will get the respect he
deserves. I doubt it.
Goku looking up from his throne?Pathetic.
All right, anyway, sounds like Zorro's our winner for this
week. I feel off my game swinging
around 2 swords. Congratulations.

(01:22:51):
What's your name? Justin.
What am I doing? See, he doesn't even know he's
missing the iframes himself. Oh, fan mail, right?
I don't know how to read either,but moving on to fan mail.
Justin, we need that fan mail. Where'd I put that?

(01:23:12):
Please hold. It's got to scroll to find it.
Oh, it's right here. Thank you.
This is from listener and Jessica over on her Instagram
and they write hello, one piece of the lime cast.
I've actually been thinking about sending this, you know,
message for way too long, but life has kept getting in the
way. Now that Spotify rap finally

(01:23:33):
came out, I was ranked in the top 3%.
Whoa. I figure it was the perfect time
to show you my gratitude. Well, you don't have to do that,
but thank you. I've been listening to you guys
for about a year and a half now.I'm currently at the end of
Dressrosa and I've completely fallen in love with the entire
cast. You always make my day and
listening to you guys genuinely help me out through a really
rough patch in my life. No matter how bad a day I'm

(01:23:56):
having, I always find myself smiling from ear to ear whenever
I hear your dumb jokes and discussions.
For that, I'm forever grateful. Thank you for making my year,
Ma. Thank you for, you know, giving
us your time and energy. That's delightful.
I love that message. They Oh well, hold on.
There's a little bit more. I'm sorry.
OK, one more thing. One.
More. Or two, I have a question.

(01:24:16):
How many minutes did you guys have on Spotify this year?
I personally had 88,722 minutes or 61 days.
Quote or excuse me, parentheses.I started listening to you guys
as motivation for my rewatch, bythe way.
Other parentheses, I probably misspelled Dressrosa.
You didn't. You did not nailed it.
Good job. Oh, now where's my Spotify

(01:24:37):
numbers? Please hold so while he's doing
that 'cause I got mine up here. So fun fact about me, I've been
called a psychopath for this. Yes.
Uh huh. Because I don't listen to music
while I drive my car. Oh, you're an NPR guy.
No, nothing. Dead silence.
No radio. Nada.
You sit in silence. I sit in silence.

(01:24:57):
My man's a serial killer. Oh yeah, you're a psycho.
Someone called out cops bro. Yeah, you're a psycho.
I'm sorry. So here's my actual reason for
it. I drive such a piece of shit car
that I'm always listening for itto break.
Oh, that's what. I'm really listening to like I'm
listening to my car, but also I'm ADHD HD is fuck.

(01:25:19):
So I'm like replaying the movie Shrek in my head, for example,
as I'm driving. So I don't need music because I
just got that goblin in my braingoing like, hey, remember that
time in fifth grade? And I'm like, oh God, channels
change. And then it's like, hey,
remember that time in your favorite movie ever from your
childhood? I'm like, yeah, that's the spot.

(01:25:42):
That's the one. That's the channel I'm looking
for right now. I don't really listen to a whole
lot of music, but when I do I get called out for it on my.
Spotify. Yeah, well, they tell you.
So for example, let's let's justgo through this real quick.
My top genres, 1 metal core. I don't know what that could

(01:26:03):
mean, but that that's a thing. 2J pop OK, I can see that. 3
soundtrack? What the fuck does that mean?
You listen to like Osts like no stuff.
From music and video games. Yeah, and movies.
Okay, okay, 4 country Blues. Yeah, so I'm depressed. 5.
Mongolian throat Singing 5. Rock.

(01:26:27):
Okay, okay. Sounds pretty normal to me.
Yeah, sounds. Right now, on to the next tab.
You're listening age now, I toldyou.
Man to. Really.
Already. Well, I am, yeah, but I feel
called out and I'm like, yeah, heaven forbid I have my own, you
know, ear stems I like to listento.

(01:26:48):
So apparently my listening age is 79.
That's crazy, by the way. It's still so fucking funny. 79
Yep, you listen to shit from the50s I.
Do I do occasionally? Not occasionally.
You you listen to it consistently enough that Spotify
was like, you're fucking old. Then for the you listen to 182

(01:27:15):
songs this year. Is that a lot?
Is that a little? For you that is a lot.
For you, probably a lot. For for most people that listen
to Spotify, that's nothing. That's a day.
Yeah, literally then. For my top song, it's Hugs by
Pale Dusk. I've listened to it 13 times.
I know, I know, right? Huge fan.

(01:27:37):
Bro my top song I listened to 75times.
Where's the number that was actually asked for?
How many minutes did you get to?So what's it called?
So podcast, obviously one Piece with a lime Pale Dusk is your
top artist. You spent 327 minutes with them,
which makes you top percent 2% fan.
Wow. Like I didn't get any of those

(01:27:58):
other ones. I didn't mean to take a photo of
them. So the answer to your question,
Jessica, is Devin doesn't have the answer.
I it should have at some point giving you your your music
minutes listen to. A man with speed running his
freaking profile thingy missed. It, I find it hard to believe
that they would have at least given you that.

(01:28:18):
Yeah, I, I, I bet that's in there.
You just accidentally skipped itor something.
Probably. I mean, I, I also believe that
it would be a small enough number that Spotify's like, ah,
who? This guy doesn't care.
Like he doesn't really. Yeah, this guy's 78 years old.
He doesn't know how to handle this.
This guy's 79 years old, he doesn't care.
He doesn't know how to actually use this scrap shit.
He's listened to more minutes onSpotify that he's got left in

(01:28:39):
his life. Yeah, truly though.
Meanwhile it's just me and my car going to that.
Just you want to go next or should I?
All right, my, my total number of minutes listen to this year,
Excuse Me for music is 55,608 and that's equivalent to 38

(01:29:01):
days. So shout to Jessica for Blow Me
Out the Water and for podcasting.
I've listened to a total of 42,341 minutes.
OK, it did not give me a day's translation.
Yeah, that one, it didn't. You'd have to do that math by
yourself. It says it tells you.
Oh I got this. Do the mount cap tree.
As for for music minutes, I havethe highest number out of the

(01:29:22):
people here, but I did not beat our our caller or our messenger
here. I had 70,411 minutes on music
Damn, for a translation of roughly 48 days, and for
podcasts I had about 47,483 minutes.
And that math is, I don't know, it's like.
I got about 29 days for my podcasting minutes.

(01:29:45):
Yeah, so my, the my podcast minutes probably somewhere in
the neighborhood of like 29 daysor something to a little more
than half what it's actually it's a pretty decent amount more
than and half my my music minutes.
So probably someone in able to like 30 to 35 days of podcasts.
Oh, I got the number now. 1458 minutes listened.

(01:30:07):
Brother, that's music. That's everything.
No, it's probably just music. They give you a separate podcast
notice. There isn't one for podcasts.
I'm looking at it right. Now, yeah, that it's probably
because you have so little. My man listened to a week's
worth of music all of 2025. Yeah, that's incredible.
And most of that was all I was mowing the grass.

(01:30:29):
That's my, those, those are my numbers.
Oh, I, I got a younger number. I got.
I got 22. Devin listened to less than a
day's worth of music. That is incredible.
Yeah, but if we were able to count the minutes that he spent
in his own brain, he'd blow us all out of the water.
Galaxy brain just. Oh, wait, wait, Devin, I know, I

(01:30:50):
know. You said it was like 1000
something something or whatever.I rounded it down to 1000
minutes. Converted to days.
It's considered a 0.69. Nice, nice.
All right. Thank you for the lovely
message. Clearly it was intentional from
my side. Who was that from?
Did you say who was from? I don't remember.
Jessica. Jessica, thank you for the
lovely message. I'm glad that we have been able

(01:31:12):
to so consistently make your dayand that you are ranked so
highly among our listeners. That is incredible and I love
you for it, frankly. Hopefully somebody has actually
emailed you back because if you're at the end of Dress Rosa
then. I wrote a reply.
I said thanks, OK, and then someother sentence afterward.
Excellent because if if she's atdress Rosa then.

(01:31:33):
Let's go feel it's going. To be a little while before she
hears our response to her live so.
We'll, we'll see you this time next year.
Yeah, we'll, we'll have, we'll have the 2026 rap numbers by the
time you hear this. I don't know.
They listened for a year and a half and they made it to dress
Rosa. Assuming that they start at the
beginning, then I don't know. They'll be at.
They'll be at Awano in a couple of months probably.

(01:31:55):
It's moments like these where it's like, maybe we should like
tell them like, hey, go to this episode, go to this time stamp
so you don't get any spoilers. Listen to this and be like, see
you got shouted out. Yeah, you could do that.
Yeah, because I know there's people out there who haven't
been listening for a minute looking at you.
I know you haven't. I've heard.
I heard the words come out of your mouth.
I know. I'm sorry, out of filler work

(01:32:17):
again, it had to happen. Devin, I don't know.
I don't know if we realize this,but they're still not listening.
They haven't listened for a minute and they're still not
listening. So they don't even hear this.
Damn I know, but I'm shaming them and shame, shame on you
all. Right, moving on to the garb.
Gab, baby Kabu kabu. All right, I decided to drop the

(01:32:41):
bag off at Devin's place becauseI let Devin fill the gap and
he's going to have you go insideof it since neither of you have
been here in a minute. Wait, wait.
What? You went to my place.
I did, yeah. I left it in your rickety car.
I. Told you I was in.
Prison. No, you didn't at the.
Beginning of the episode Prison.I I said, yeah, I've been in
prison. So whose house did you go to?

(01:33:03):
I still went to your house, but I didn't know you were in
prison. So who filled the bag?
I don't. I don't know.
Oh, it's probably still just sitting in your car.
Devin. Where's your car?
Where's your car? Devin.
Devin. I don't know, I don't know.
Wait, is that honking I hear? I think Devin, your truck's
outside. Oh no, they got it.

(01:33:24):
I can't see anyone in the driver's seat though I.
Didn't tell you why I went to prison.
Oh God, they got my truck. Who's they?
The raccoons. Oh, that means they probably I.
Told you it was prison but it didn't specify it was a POW
camp. That means they probably have
the gab too. Fuck.

(01:33:46):
This is you. This is on you.
Me can you get your fucking raccoon family in check?
Hey, hey. The Alliance fell down like
months ago. I warned you.
That doesn't sound like a ME problem, that sounds like a you
problem. Well, it's a you problem when
you put it in my car that was conveniently placed at my house.
It's fine, I've got a backup. We'll get the actual gap from

(01:34:08):
them eventually. I we'll just have to fucking
trade Justin's liver for it or something, I don't know.
Wait, what? Anyway, Speaking of livers.
You only need 1/4 of it, Justin.You'll be.
Fine, yeah, it'll regrow all right.
Fucking well. It was supposed to be Devin
filling it and and Justin reaching in, but instead it's
backup gab and Justin still going to reach in.
So here you go, buddy. Fuck me.

(01:34:29):
Okay, Well Christian, I don't know how to tell you this, but I
think the raccoons compromise his bag as well because it's
there's just nothing but trash in here.
Devin, did you let the fucking raccoons in the studio again?
We're at war. OK?
Why would I do that? This is clearly sabotage.
Prior to the war. Before the war?

(01:34:49):
Maybe a little. Well, I'm just I guess I'm going
to take this used gum wrapper I guess.
Or hold on, wait, wait, now let's go with this Wendy's
wrapper. Career day.
Monkey smile fruit. Now, gentlemen and audience at
home. Y'all may or may not remember a

(01:35:09):
character named Solitaire who was a prison guard or no person
in the in the Udon prison systemwho had a confrontation with
Rizzo. And I think it was a woman.
There was, and the woman had a monkey tail and six arms, which
may have been a play on words for spider monkey and spider
solitaire. Yes.
For those that may not remember what you're talking about.

(01:35:31):
A screenshot is an order I suppose.
Yeah, like could they get a potentially a photo so that they
could picture who the hell we'retalking about?
Hypothetically, of course. Hypothetically, of course.
Right, right, right. So basically we're what we're
looking at here is someone with was it 6 total or six extra?
6 total. OK, 6 total arms and two legs to

(01:35:53):
make up 8 appendages like a spider.
And the tail of a good tail. And then a monkey tail.
So basically we're looking at the powers of, we'll say a
monkey, and with six total arms instead of just two.
All right, well, personally, me,I'm living my personal dream of
having a monkey tail. I'm doing whatever the fuck I
want with it, but that's a career.

(01:36:16):
I can finally live my lifelong dream of petting 6 dogs at once.
Oh dude oh dude dude I'm so serious I can't believe this
just came to me and it's the best idea ever.
The monkey smile for user would be the best hibachi chef ever.
I feel like that would be a hazard.
Bro, the entertainment value just went up fourfold, dude.

(01:36:38):
It's fivefold actually. If you throw on the tail bro, Oh
my God it's dude I. I need this to be real.
You could be working 7 meals at the same time.
Dude, so many flips, so many tricks.
Imagine how many eggs you could juggle.
Oh my God. Wow, that's a good answer.
So in the same vein, I'm gonna say a pianist, OK?

(01:36:58):
That feels like cheating. I mean, have you seen how many
keys are in the thing? The piano's fucking cheating.
OK, OK, so you know how there's like a A3 necked bass slash
guitar? Yeah.
Where like you're basically justhave, OK, what if we did that
for pianos? Does that does that exist?
That's called a harp. What?
Why would you? What would you, what would you
do? What are you talking about?
Like, just like a triple Decker piano, there's three layers to

(01:37:19):
it. Justin, you just described a
double harp. I didn't even know that was the
thing. I don't know what he's talking
about either, Justin, he, he's saying like this is a thing
everybody knows, but I don't know what the fuck he's talking
about either. Again, weird ass music taste.
Now we know. That is a harp.
That is, 2 harps glue food together essentially.
Sounds like a monstrosity. It is awesome and they typically

(01:37:41):
play covers for songs that are already made, but Harpy and it's
cool. It's a vibe.
Got to be there for it. OK, I'm going to take Devin's
idea and give it a plus. One pianist.
Great. Awesome.
We got to give him more instruments bro just.
Make him the whole band. Just a one man band but with
more one man. We got turn them into like the

(01:38:01):
the next level of one man band bro.
One man band, One person band. How many instruments can we fit
on? Drumsticks got the.
Guitar got the at the string bass.
The commitment to saying every inch and wrong is impeccable.
Wait wait wait wait hold on waitOK hold on wait wait the same
line of thinking but we're goingto make a slight U turning every
circle back not only are they. Fucking DJ and they have to hold

(01:38:23):
their hands on different knobs and levers and twisty bits as
they're raving out. I think Devin's cooking.
I think there's a potential for DJI.
Don't know shit about DJ ING butI feel looking more arms means
more equipment and more equipment mean more more boom.
More blub. More more more, more stonks.
More ticket. Ticket OK, as the one man banned
idea, it's probably not feasible.

(01:38:43):
But like, what if it was actually possible for this
person to be able to play the piano, a keyboard, and an organ
all at the same time? Isn't that just a church organ?
I mean I feel like your problem there is the logistics of
getting all of these giant fuck off instruments next to each
other within reach. That's just a choir organ.

(01:39:04):
It's just two pianos on top of each other with lots of pipes.
Here's what I'm thinking. OK, our career day person is the
world's best stock market day trader.
They got 6 laptops set up. Buy, sell, sell, sell, sell.
Computers in general, all with their own keyboards and you can

(01:39:25):
just, you know, with enough training of like looking from
screen to screen, you've got, you could just like be hitting
shortcuts on your computer keyboard to just buy, buy, buy,
sell, sell, sell. OK, I like your idea, but I like
it even more if we if we turn back to clock and turn them into
like a stock market trader before there was technology
where dudes were on like these clunky bricks of phones with the

(01:39:48):
antennas and you got to like. Get a call people.
On like a chalkboard, draw the graph of like the Dow Jones at
like hour by hour. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think they'd
be. Great in that environment.
Wait, wait, what if we go more blue collar fucking mechanic?
They can hold their own goddamn flashlights.
Nah, we'd still find a way to need somebody else for that.

(01:40:13):
I gotta have 10 arms and still ask my son to do it.
Where's the God damn 10mm? You're holding it.
No, the other 10mm from the other side.
What are you fucking stupid? It's just a rite of passage.

(01:40:34):
Welcome to your daily dose of generational trauma.
Yeah, is this was like having a dad.
Yeah. A little bit he gets to hold the
flashlight for. Him.
Yeah. No, no, no.
You have to hold the flash. You don't get to, you have to.
Yeah. This isn't a privileged thing.
This is a like you have. This is a requirement.
This is a chore. This is a debuff.

(01:40:55):
That's AT Buff, Yeah. You just want to go to the
fucking high school soccer game,but you're busy helping your dad
work on the 1976 Chevy. Or the boat.
Or the deck. Definitely a deck.
There was a deck at one point. That now that's some privileged
shit if it was a boat like that's your dad just actively
hates you I think. Yeah, but a deck, I feel like

(01:41:19):
that one's real. Everyone has that moment where
they're forced to go to Home Depot and like, you know, look
at wood. Oh, do you mean like that?
Like a back deck? Like of the house.
Yeah. Oh I thought you meant the deck
of the boat. So I was like, this is like the
most white privileged shit I've ever heard.
No, no, no. I'm talking like a no, I'm
talking the backyard deck like. OK, that's a little bit better.

(01:41:39):
Like they get bit by a werewolf and they're like, I got to build
a deck today and it's like, ah, fuck, we're going to Home Depot
for three days straight to stare.
God, it's 2. AM.
We're staring at plywood for four hours and I'm like 4 years
old in the bathroom section going like my life is like this.
Why am I dying inside do? You guys think these toilets
work? And I yelled at to compare
prices for two by fours. All right, I think we've done

(01:42:01):
enough to the monkey smile for. I mean I gave the objectively
correct answer of Hibachi Chef. Hibachi Chef was pretty good to
start off with. That is true, although I didn't
I like my answer about the aboutthe stock market trader as well
I. Don't know why, but when you
said I think we've done enough to the monkey smile for the
first thought that came in my head is like you're throwing a
towel on it saying clean yourself up.

(01:42:23):
Stop, stop. You have to stop I.
Was just walking away. No.
You have to stop with the sexualreferences.
I don't know what's gotten into you this today, but ever since
Justin started gooning for Zorro, you've doubled down even
harder. I've had enough.
So I. Can't be contained.
Devin do a thing. If you wish to support the show,

Please, The hamsters will eat usif they don't get fed.
That's a lie. It's the raccoons now.
That is true considering they'veapparently just broke it in and
taken all of the good shit we have here.

(01:43:04):
Well, you don't hear that downstairs.
Yeah, that's them. I've been hearing it for the
last half hour and I've been trying real hard to ignore it.
Hey guys, before we sign off, I have more bad news.
Go on. Like actual bad news.
Uh huh. Voice actor Jim Ward,
notoriously known for being the voice of Doug Dimondome, owner
of the Dimsdale Dumbedome. Doug.
Dimondome No man died, I know. The.

(01:43:27):
Raccoons got him too. The raccoons got him.
I did hear this, yeah. RP Jim Ward.
When will this bloodshed end? Not Doug Dimidome.
I love Doug Dimidome. Yeah, this was tragic.
My childhood is falling apart, one voice actor at a time.
It's OK, you can hold the flashlight for them in their
heart. You know your heart.
Never, never again. Goodbye everybody.

(01:43:54):
It's a clawing noise.
