She-Hulk Trailer Reactions + Favorite Sick Day Comfort Watches

Warning, this podcast can take spoilers for Doctor Stranger, the Multiverse of Madness, and the Halo series, including the finale, so if you haven't caught up with those particular pieces of content, make sure to skip those sections of our podcast. That's all. Thank you. Hello. My name is Jason Getsepsion and I'm currently in the throes of the novel coronavirus COVID nineteen, which I tested positive for last weekend and have been suffering symptoms of fromout a day before I

I also have novel coronavirus aka COVID nineteen, and somehow we didn't get this at the same place. We legitimately have not seen each other in public for a long time.

In real good.

Point, Rosie, because here's what I have this happened.

You can read the news and the COVID.

Is rampant right now, people wear your masks.

I've been to numerous places over the last you know, the last week in the zone when I could have gotten it, and I was always one of like the five percent of people. They're wearing a mask. It ain't gone away, folks. And this time it's crazy. This is my second go round with COVID nineteen the novel Coronavirus. The first time I basically just slept for like eighteen hours and then like two days later I felt fine. This time, like Terminator two or Aliens or Godfather too.

Concur This is not my first time having COVID, seeing as we all living through a global pandemic in busy cities.

But this is the worst time.

I have been haunting my house like a fucking sickened ghost.

That I have a FEVA every day. It is like you said, it is.

It's truly like the James Cameron's Aliens to Ridley Scott's Alien. The first one was like a brain foggy, slow lucid experience. This is like space marine shooting you with then with a big space gun.

It's very bad, folks. It's snarley. Don't get it, and we say ask be safe and take care of yourselves and other people and other people around you who, for reasons not having to do with ignorance, perhaps can't get the numerous vaccines that are out there because of the previous metal conditions, the fact that they're compromised, et cetera. Those people are living in a state of constant fear, and we can, we can, we can make their plight

Yeah, it's going around.

And and I don't really go out many places or go and do big socializing things just to protect my own health. And I always wear a mask and I still got it. So just everybody's getting it. It's it's good to just take care. And it's hard right now because the way that the numbers are being reported and the fact that a lot of people are testing at home means we won't necessarily see those numbers in the same way we did in other waves.

So it's just really good.

To follow you got and be thoughtful for your own sake and other people's. And because this is very gnolly, you don't want to be sittin a sweating like us talking about I know.

Well, great, great transition, because let's do that in today's episode. In the previously on, we're going to talk about a bunch of news from this week, headlined by the the she Hulk trailer drops. The delightful She Hulk trailer drop. We will talk about the Halo finale and the fact that Master Chief popped his cherry he did it and

Yeah, I want to talk about that, because like if you if you're not like us and you don't be pausing the trailer and everything.

You might be like, what are you talking about? But this is it.

In Endgame, we met Professor Holk, who explained that he was a new version of Banner and Hulk combined.

He was not a third entity. He was who he is. He's he's an intelligent adream and the bridge together exactly.

And he's looking hunky and I'm sure some people on the internet are calling.

Him Daddy Jeez. And then at the end of.

Shang Chi, we saw Bruce Banner in his human form. We had a sling on his arm because in Endgame we saw him, we saw Holk wheeled the Infinity Gauntlet and do the snap and it really messed up his arm. So in the modern continuity, we know that Bruce is back in his normal human body and he has an arm sling in this trailer is Jason so smartly noticed he is Professor Holk and his arms are looking fine.

So it is very very likely that.

This is going to be in that period between Infinity War and Endgame, which is something we have yet to see.

Another thing we're gonna see. I think we can deduce from this wonderful again trailer. There's the part of the trailer in which you know, one of the heads of the law firm that Jennifer works for says, hey, we want to start a superhero division, which is directly a very much a comics thing. Like Jennifer's specialty is powered incidents, you know, cases involving or related to people with powers.

Yeah, I think you're right.

Also, I think that the cell that we see in this trailer, that that we see Jennifer in when she's testing her Hulk powers, that looks very similar to where we see Abomination walk back.

Into during shang Chi.

So I think that I think that Bruce, whatever part of Bruce's life this is, it's going to be important and foundational to the notion of whatever's going on in the current continuity. We know that Sword was set up, you know, within this there was that was a really big time for Sword after and we found out about all the plans that they were making because of what

Else do we see? Let's talk about this. So we see in the opening shots, we see a car tumbling down the hill. Now, in the comics, Jennifer gets her powers because she needs a blood transfusion from know she has a particular blood type, and so they go to a relative, and of course Bruce Banner is the relative, and the side effect of him donating blood to his cousin is that the gamma radiation in his blood also gets into Jen's body and she reacts in a very

Like everyone's family's being killed by gangsters.

No, I think you're right in something.

That our super producer Sauw was saying when we were prepping for this episode was like Hawk Eyed did something really interesting where it tied Kate Bishop's origin and her tragic backstory directly into events of the MCU, And that definitely feels like something we could see here.

But from the.

Tone of the show, which is like very eighties and funny and kind of like feels a bit more lighthearted than a lot of the other stuff we've gotten, I wouldn't be surprised to see them play with that kind of fan favorite conversation about like collateral damage, which is like not something we've really seen very much. They touched on it in the Netflix stuff, But I wouldn't be surprised if her accident was like something got thrown and hit a wall and then it fell on her.

During an event just happened or something exactly.

It's like the.

Snap an ice cream van had a guy who wasn't driving, and I just think, like, this show seems to be going into that humor and it's it's if it's gonna be like the comics. She's always been a very meta fourth wall breaking character. So to have a little bit of that conversation with the audience and say, well, this is kind of what it's like for normal people who live in the MCU. You might not even end up being normal because your cousin's got gamma blood.

Let's talk about one of the real surprises in this trailer, which is the very very brief shot of Frogmen from I did not know this was gonna happen.

I cannot believe this happened. I am sure.

Tell us who tell us about Frogman. Frogman, very very minor character that I maintain was at least in some form a like esthetic influence on the Teenage Mutant Ninja journals. I yeah claim that I have no evidence for that, but I claim.

That the truth is that all those I mean, TMNT is like one of my favorite topics, and all of those comics, the original Black and White Stuff, which is very dark and very funny, was an absolute response to Marvel and DC and big superhero comics. So that would make a lot of sense, especially when you think about the fact that, like in Teenage Mutant Ninja titles, for example, the bad group is called it's called the foot Clan instead of the Hand you know, and.

Stuff like that. So it's very It was like a self.

Published kind of shit post comic, and I love that it became this team this like Kid's powerhouse. But yes, Frogman, it is with a hyphen like spider Man, so don't spell it wrong or else the comic fans might get upset with you.

Created by JM. D.

Matteas and Kerry Gamil from a Marvel Team Up issue Marvel Team Up one one June nineteen eighty two, which I.

Believe those were fun man.

Yeah, and that puts it between that. I think that puts it before the first yeah, two years before the first Ninja title's comics, That's what I'm saying.

And also like Eugene, the frog Man's Eugene identity, Eugene's like fifteen. This is why I claim that Frogman is an influence onto you. But like again, I have no I'm saying that.

Kevin Eastman on it to talk about this local legend. Yeah, so yes, his mother is called Rosie. Shout out to me. Yeah, and he basically makes like he is like a kid who wants to be a villain, and it is like really weird and strange, and he could definitely one of those weird characters from the seventies and eighties where you're just.

Like, how did this get in there?

Yeah, like he actually payspot pete, like the kind of level character I have to say.

This actually, and basically he is, like.

He's one of those characters who's so out there and weird if you're a comic book occasionally, if you're like, if like me and Jason got to write a comic, we would be pulling these.

Weird characters that we love. So he pops up.

Like he's in Secret Invasion, you know, as a scroll he's he's in like you see these.

Different crazy by the way, hilarious pull in Secret Invasion the.

Scroll and then like, I mean, he's definitely I think there's there's character.

There's creators now.

Who remember him fondly because he pops up a lot, and.

To see him here.

They they do a really good job kind of recontextualizing the costume, which in the comics is like very cartoony. In in the trailer, as we see it, it looks kind of like a Super Sentai costume, like a like a Power Rangers costume. Meets Vigilante from the recently released peace Maker show that we talked a lot about, So I'm very interested to see my gut says he will

I'm glad you mentioned Titania Uh played by Jimmy La Jamil. She is we assume, gonna be the big bad of the series and is a frequent foil for she Hulk over the years. Now, Titana in the comics gets her powers from Doctor DOOMO it.

Will be dun dunn dunt dun duh.

It will be absolutely I fascinated to know where she gets her powers this time.

Yeah.

Also in the comics, one more connection with the Well. First of all, She Hulk was a member of the Fantastic Four, so there's that. And then also she Hulk represented Doctor Doom's son in his attempt to basically flea lat Varia and become an American citizen. So there are a lot of really cool Doctor Doom connections and it just feels like I once again we're inching inching towards a Fantastic four canonical debut. The fact that we saw John Krasinski as Richard's nonwithstanding.

Yeah, no, I totally agree. I think it's a really interesting poll. Obviously, she is like a really famous shock villain, and it makes sense because they're obviously going for kind of like an Ali McBeal vibe, so it makes sense to give her like a female antagonist. But I wouldn't be surprised if we saw some kind of implication of like a powerbroker.

Sort like where did she get this power?

Great?

How could she get it?

Also in the comics, like even though it's kind of a wacky origin during the Secret Wars stuff that I think it's Secret Wars three where she's introduced, it's actually like bad she does get tested on and has is kind of what could definitely be be written as like a tragic backstory or a reason to be pissed off at people, or reason to kind of want to become

I love that at some point we should discuss the fact that comic Swang currently is great. Movie Wong is orders of magnitude the best Wong. It's not even close to how cool, how much cooler.

He is in the movies then in the and I think you can absolutely one Benedict Wong shout out that's

I've seen the internet.

I never feeling it like he had a new outfit, he was looking good and like I just yeah, I love it and I love that it's up the game. I mean, honestly, they've done a really great job recontextualizing that orientalist aspect. Yes, so it's so key to like the older Doctor Strange stuff.

There might be some of our listeners out there like, oh, she I love the trailer. I'm getting into comic. What can I read? It's super super easy read Dan Slott's She Hulk The Complete Collection. This is story by Dan Slot, Audi ground Off on cover art, also Paul Peltier and

Also because she's one of.

The few, she's one of like the few heroes aside from like the Fantastic Four, So she's gonna be one of the first MCU heroes who has like a full time job. She's not just like bumming around like somehow not getting paid for being an avenger.

She has like a full time job.

So that leads to a lot of funny kind of slice of life sitting around stuff. And I mean in that Dance Loot collection, Titania is like a major antagonist.

So you're looking for there you have.

The new poster that they just released is almost certainly based on one of Greg Horn's covers, which is actually the back of the collection, which is her kind of striding up these stairs, you know, and and the and the the visualization that they've gone for as Tatiana as she is very much that Greg Horn kind of vibe. She's she's big, but she's like shape plea and she's kind of athletic and so it's very interesting to see that.

So there's that. So there's the Shell collect her by Dan Slot Complete Collection. This collects like she hoped one to twelve and I think a couple maybe an annual or something like that, and then she hulked the complete collection. A more recent a more recent collection by Charles Sewell, Javier Plito and Munsa of Vicente, And that one is just super super funny. Charles Sewell was a lawyer, so he's got all the lingo down and it's That's another one where it's like.

Jen hanging out with Hellcat, you know, like Jena, like.

Her friendship with Patsy is so great and I do I love it. That's gonna be something that plays.

In That's okay, So I have a prediction. I'm gonna be We know, our listeners know how much we love to make predictions and we don't care if they're wrong. We just love to do it.

Yeah, it's just fun.

Here's so much of like the texture of Jennifer Walter stories is about the role she plays in the broader superhero community and her friendship and bonds with various figures throughout the female superhero community. I think we're going to see more than frogmen debut. I think we might see others. I think we might because, like, if you think about it superhero division, I get that there's a lot of like, you know, property damage and loss of life from the

But there's not like that many. There's really not that.

Many superheroes yet. So I do wonder if we might not if the Frogman drop isn't a signal that hey, all those like really really fun, rarely used minor minor minor Marvel characters, we might see some of them pop up here.

Yeah, I think that you're right, and I also think this is going to continue the Hawkeye tradition, not just in tone, but in branding and reshaping the Netflix Marvel shows as something for.

The main MCU.

It's quite likely we might see Matt Murdock here. He too is a lawyer, and him and Jennifer have worked alongside each other and something else that you just made me realize when we're talking about this. It could work as it could work in the same way the Netflix shows worked, which is when you actually watch those shows, they introduced so many comic book characters because they needed like a living community like Luke Cage, so many characters,

Yeah, and again I wonder if we it'd be cool to get a hellcare drop in this. Hellcat one of the oldest Marvel character. I mean, going back to the forties, like this is like as like fucking Marvel fashion.

Fashion cocks really incredible times.

People forget those old days when women were seen as a as a truly large part half of the market. So they had romance comics, they had fashion comics, and that's where Patsy Walker, who became Patsy Walker Hellcat came from. And she was in the Jessica Jones show in a kind of reimagined version, But this version of she Hulks seems like a better place to to bring in a

Is it gonna be?

Like? That's what I love about Seahawks stories. And that's why I hope, and that's why I sit because it is really such an important part of the texture and fuels Jennifer Walter stories, and so you know, selfishly, I just hope we see a lot of I think.

The tone of the trailer up it hints at that. It hints like her and Bruce in the bar. There's like a comedy and she obviously a climate just like in the comic. She acclimates very well to being in her She hoped form because that's how she chooses to be. Yeah, and it looks like from the trailer that's going to be the case for most of the show.

Well, we can't wait for this one up next. Let's welcome in our super producer Chris to talk about the Halo series and the finale of the Halo series, which recently aired on Paramount Plus. Chris, there, tell us about Halo.

I have to say, overall, it was a little bit disappointing.

I know, we were all pretty optimistic after the first episode, like, okay, the covenentary here they're teasing, like the conflicts with the colonies, the unsc are, the kind of the.

Bad guys, Like there is potential.

And I have to say that in the whole series, about twenty minutes like really good Halo stuff in there.

But those twenty minutes, I have to say, are really good.

I here is my takeaway. I haven't watched the finale yet, but I've watched like the first five episodes. My takeaway is that very very clearly eighty percent of the budget went to the pilot and then yeah, immediately thereafter, it fucking falls off in terms of like scope, in terms of what they're and and the storytelling kind of takes a hit after that. So when you say not a lot of quote unquote Halo stuff, what do you what do you? What do you mean?

Like, you know, I think there's always a question of why even adapt, Like what more can you really gain out of doing a film when the games are pretty cinematic. I think the one big thing you can do is you can show just what incredible soldiers and fighters and like combatants everyone is, all these Spartans are. That's more

The TV show tried to look like the Raid? That would make me very.

Yeah, just like let's see, like let's really see like great fight choreography, and the first episode to get a

You know for those that have read those books, you.

Know, the Eric Nyland novels, which you've talked about, there's a lot of really great lore in there, and they just kind of jettisoned all of that. Like I really wanted to see the Spartans as a kind of family, yea.

Like one of the tragedies of reading those books is whenever.

They lose one of their soldiers, like you know, they're kind of programmed to be emotionally uneffective.

You can tell it hurts them when they lose one of their own.

And they didn't really go there either, Like that could have been a really great heart of the story, and I feel like they kind of skirted around that for just a lot of really generic and room conversations.

Something else that is kind of not haloy is. Master Chief got his dick wet.

Master Chief the cherry, the cherry got popped.

He got out of his armor and got into something a lot more comfortable.

And the reason that fans.

Are upset, like hardcore, you know, the fans who have read the books and are up on the lore is is part of the Spartan The Spartan training program is fucking brutal. Like when you read the Nyland books, you're like, holy shit, this is terrible they did. It's terrible what they did to these kids to train them to be these uh super soldiers. And part of that is they injected them with various steroids and drugs. And part of that medical regimen was, uh that their sex drive was

I mean, I it felt a little bit out of character, but I wasn't upset about it. I'm like, Okay, I get what they're doing.

You know.

They's like, Okay, I get what they're trying to do here. They're trying to give him a romance with this other character McKee. You know, I'm never going to complain about Pablo Schreiver being naked, which is a few times in this year congratulation, looking great, looking absolutely.

Happy to see a bum Yeah.

As was I like, there's something you're too except as budshots, they're fantastic. So from that respect, I've like, okay, I'm on board with this. It definitely didn't make me upset. It just felt a little bit, i don't know, kind of unnecessary. It definite felt a little bit out of character. And it's like, it's not going to make me angry that they change things. Like this part of an adaptation, you gotta change things. But I didn't think it necessarily added a lot to the story.

It sounds like it's actually a bit of a missed opportunity because that's such a tragic and kind of brutal bit of law that they could have done a scene where it's like an intimacy scene that isn't to do with fucking, and that could have been like a really interesting and motive way to explore like that side of the past, and that.

Kind of actually a great Yeah, it's actually a really great and tragic plot device where it's like you know, he he can't like, yeah, he can't do that. You find other ways of being intimate like that.

I think that's a shape that kind of like it's I really like the first couple of episodes, I felt like it was like really ambitious, weird sci fi storytelling. But I just think it's a shame because I think like if you can't keep that going for those little moments when you could do something that's really like emotionally powerful like that, then it you.

Know, does it hit basically like you said, did it left you?

You watched it and you were like, eh, nice.

To see it, but like yeah, it just felt generic, you know.

And I think that was the big disappointment this the series is that for me, Halo's never felt generic. It's always been kind of special, and like the Master Chief, despite being kind of like kind of a.

Blank canvas, has always felt special. Too, and this was just like.

Eh, is there anything that you would want to see them do in like a second season that would redeem it or like interesting exploring.

I'm not like totally writing it off, you know, like every series takes a little bit of time to get its footing, and if they are going to push it more towards like those sort of battle sequences like we saw here, maybe fewer episodes, bigger scope and scale, more fight with the Covenant, which requires more budget than I actually think there is some potential here. It's like there was just enough here for me to want to keep

Well, I'm actually looking forward to catching up on this. Maybe that's one of the things I do in the throes of COVID nineteen, the novel coronavirus. Up next the airlock, where we'll tell you about what we do when we're sick. Welcome to the airlock. Stay on the other side of it, folks, because because your hosts today Rosie and I have been stricken with the novel coronavirus COVID nineteen, and so you're gonna want to stay on the other side of that

Like Thursday ish and then Friday was really the the day. But it's just it's only gone worse, baby, It's only gotten worse.

So I'm I have been. I luckily I had actually just.

Incidentally kind of like taken some time off to like I was like, I'm gonna do some writing, I'm gonna like do some stuff.

I had my mom visit and and then.

Lo and behold, it just ended up working out because it meant I could just not I could just lay around and and and rest. And one of the things that I did that was very comforting that we haven't talked about yet. Somehow that is easily up there with like my favorite shows.

Of the year was I finished Our Flagman's Death.

It's a great show.

Yeah, I've been.

Saving like the last two episodes because.

I didn't want it to be finished.

Don't spoil the finale because there is some really great The finale has some great stuff.

Yeah, I'm just gonna I'm not even gonna really spoil anything.

I'm just gonna tell you why it's good and you should watch it.

So it's it's the much lauded Taiko w t t produce starring Pirate show and it is just like, along with Abbott Elementary, another one of my favorite shows of the year.

It is like the.

Funniest, like kindest, sweetest, weirdest show, and the cast is incredible and the writing is funny, and it's just like one of those half hour comedies where you're just like, damn, I wish I had made this because it is like so so surprising, but it's also very cozy. It has like I was sending around everyone who was like saying

It's surprisingly wholesome. Oh it's whole for being pirates. Yeah, like, oh, this is actually like really nice.

Saul, what are you? What do you? What do you watch? What is your go to when you're sick?

It's a good question. I think my go to when I'm sick is probably like, I want something really comforting and comfortable, nothing like complicated. I want to minimize complexity, and I want, I mean, like the familiar. It is hard to beat, Like, I want something relatively familiar, so

Watch Ultimate comfort Watch.

Yeah, like that's a great one.

Watching Brad Pitt and especially Brad Pitt. I love Brad Pitt, But watching brad Pitt and Clooney just like sort of like stylishly solve problems and like do it with no issues at all. It's just like very pleasing. I'm like this, it's complicated, but it's so not complicated. They make it too easy. That's what I want life to be.

Like this stakes the high but love watch it and you're like they're stealing a lot, but this is not stressful.

This is relaxing. I'm glad to be involved in this.

Yeah, I'm like, this is good. One hundred million dollars.

I want that.

This is great. If only, if only.

This could be so easy?

Chris, what is your go to sick content?

I think if I'm sick, probably the first movie I put on is probably the movie I've seen the most of my entire life, which is The Great Mouse Detective, Like.

The Respect to Basil. That's the one I.

Mean, yeah, you know, and and Vincent Price's Radigan is like one of the all time great camp villains. And I've watched the movie probably three or four times a year. I ever just like feeling like a little bit like hungover or sick whatever.

Ikay thrown that on.

And when I actually I had COVID back in October twenty twenty, you know, pre vaccine, when it was like you can't go anywhere, do anything, you don't know how long you're gonna be six. I basically quarantined for three weeks more or less, and I caught up in a

That was fantastic, And then I started, yeah, but it is, yeah, no, it was really excellent.

I caught up on a lot of comics, and then the other thing I did was I got back into building custom lego sets I hadn't done in probably like a decade or so, and I just had a bunch of pieces line around, and so for the first time in a long time, I built like a little custom batmobile and a little tumbler, and I was like, Oh, I'm actually really really proud of how these came out.

Honestly it was. It was part of me. Part of me kind of misses it now at this point that that era.

Of like weird Disney movies from like what they were seeing as like a flop era, they definitely come to me. Like one of my ultimate ones is The Black Cauldron. I watched that culture and and it's so scary and weird and like just off key, but it's so comforting.

Yeah, I know, that's that's a great call.

They were dark too, like a black.

Coldin is like legitimately terrifying.

Yeah, like it freaked me out, Like it's still to this day, Like there's a part of my brain that like shivers little bit whenever Fidget busts to the window, Like I should still be scared by this all these years later.

Yeah, they're like they're dark and cool. I really like that era. Actually the one for me like that was Page Master.

Oh my god.

Yeah yeah, yeah so scary.

The mister Hyde was so scary to me, Like just like the I don't know all of the streaky, but like you just kind of like want more of it. It feels like a version of a fever a little bit, like let me just try to like get get the bad stuff out.

Dude.

Joe Johnston, he's a pretty legit Comfort Watchers director actually, because he directed Rocketeer and now brilliant Rocketeer.

Shouts to Rocketeer right shouts a. Shouts to Jennifer Connelly, my always my first wife is fantastic in The Rocketeer, A movie that should have been like a hit but wasn't a hit.

Fun movie, really fun, super fun.

There's no way Captain America exists the First Avenger directed by him.

If that movie didn't exist, Hey, right, yeah.

He's completely I've been rewatching it, like I've rewatched The Succession season two episode turn Haven, today, episodes of television, and I've been reading a lot. But I think that I've been like catching up on a lot of TV. And one of the shows that I'm really enjoying right now is killing it on Peacock.

Oh yeah, the Craig Robinson Show.

It stars Craig Robinson, created by Luke del Tredici and Dan Gore, and it is Craig Robinson is a like down on his luck dude who enters a like a Boa constrictor catching contest in the Everglades. Now, because like the setup here is that I'm sure we've all read these stories where like people who couldn't handle their snakes in the in the you know, Everglade region, they would just like let them go into like the swamps and shit, and now they're like a threat to the environment and

I love that.

That's what streaming has given us now, is you can go super niche like that and just produce like a short ten episode series. It's like for a very ci audience that discover and love it and it can just exist and be awesome and not have to be twenty two episodes and appeal to everybody all the time.

Yeah, And I really like that, Like these Found family stories are becoming like such a trope now, and I think it's because like people our age grew up with, like some of the ultimate Found families, you know, like the X Men and stuff like that, And I I just it makes me really happy to see shows that are being made at a prestige TV level where that discovery of community for whatever reason whether it's socio economic or sexuality or just living like on the outside of society.

So it's really nice to.

See Guardians the Galaxy. I watch that movie all the time. Another Ultimate Found Family movie.

That's a great one. I will go on Disney Plus and just watch scenes from Marvel movies way too much, Like even when I'm not sick, I do that all the time. I really do that all the time. And it's it's sad, and I don't like to talk about it, but I do. I do that constantly.

I do Captain America picking up Thor's hammer.

That's like but once a week probably, And.

Like listen, one of the greatest scenes in the entire MCU is the before as Ultron is like knitting his consciousness together, and they're all and the rest of the Avengers are just like partying on at Stark Tower. The iOS just like hanging out, and that is like so fun. That is such a fun scene. Everybody drinking like Thor's thousand year old dorog, you know, seeing who could pick up Thort's hammer, roasting Roadie for being like a Kmart superhero.

Like that. Some So that's the good stuff.

And I love Black Widow's response like, oh, that's not a question I any answered.

It's like, oh, yeah, that's that's perfect for her character.

It's like, no, I don't want to know.

Well, listen, hopefully this will be over soon, Rosie.

I believe in us.

You've you've been dealing with since Thursday. I've been dealing it with since Saturday. Although, as I told my primary care doctor, because I'm lucky enough to have health insurance and I think that's the thing that everybody in this country should just have. Yes, definitely, there was like a two to three maybe four day period where it was like, oh man, my allergies are bad.
