Overview



Before we delve into some dungeons, we talk about some reality TV – Wipeout and American Ninja. The guilty fun of the shows. And a little of Jackie Chan



We have a great discussion on the Hawkeye series and how great it is in the MCU. But we talk about Don’t Look Up more than that. Definitely a movie that should be checked out by everyone.

Transcript



[00:00:39] Alan: I’m bored with the background that I have. It’s post-Christmas so let me see. What’s a good thing. You’ve got some good Saifai there. Let’s see. I think I’ve already featured the bat cave, so we don’t want that.



[00:00:51] Stephen: Well, actually it’s not. Oh, hunky racing guys. VIN, diesel and Sienna too fast [00:01:00] and



[00:01:00] Alan: too furious.



[00:01:01] Stephen: Two fast, two furious for the 20000000th time.



[00:01:05] Alan: Let’s try that one. In fact. I don’t know what that’s supposed to. It’s funny that you should have a John Sina up there because, and actually this might be one of the first podcasts that we’ve done where we didn’t do a little communication beforehand saying, Hey, how about some topics to cover? I’ll jump out there.



John Sina is on a show that has just been revived that I really liked. And it’s called wipe out. Really? Have you ever seen it? No. Oh, Steven, it’s my guiltiest. Most horrible pleasure. It’s a huge obstacle course for adults.



They have to Dodge, big rotating arms are going to knock them off the platform while they jump from thing to thing. And they have to bounce on big red balls for them across. And of course you don’t one of the themes of the show is big balls and that kind of stuff. It used to be two guys, John. And why can’t I remember Johnny Anderson and John Hayden or something like [00:02:00] that.



John Heffron. And they were really witty and really like pleasantly. So. And it went until 2014. And when it went away, I just can’t tell you how deprived I felt. It’s foolish. It’s stupid people get it in the face. They take horrible pratfalls and yet some what part of me, the German parts thinks that others’ pain is amusing.



And so I just, I would laugh my, my butt off, it went away and I was deprived of that. I just recently discovered, I think it’s been going on maybe TBS, which I don’t get, but now it’s been packaged for HBO max. And, and so I’ve already binge watched like five episodes in four days, early January. And they’re not quite as witty, but it’s still fun.



And I just watched American ninja warrior. It’s the same kind of thing where it’s amazing that people can do some of the things they do. How do you hang from just the top part of your knuckle for 10 yards across a wall and go up and down, be able to reach out [00:03:00] and pull your entire body weight with this.
