Funny Book Forensics 364 Dances with Werewolves

[00:00:00] Speaker A: Click. [00:00:00] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:00:05] Speaker A: You know, I. Yeah, exactly. You know, Greg, I found an enemy bigger and worse than the moon hunter. Oh, yeah. Fake shitty lobo. Yeah, yeah. It's called the. It's called the US Postal Service. [00:00:19] Speaker B: I love the postal service. Their music is so great. I love when the album came out in the early two thousands after death, Cat for Cutie decided to take a break from releasing music and for a moment, and they. I did the little kind of break and then there was a solo project and we got the postal service. It was great. [00:00:38] Speaker A: Yeah. And besides the dulcet sounds of the fucking leaf blower going on outside me, because whenever ever I try to do anything here at this place, somebody comes and decides to make lots of noise. This used to happen at your house all the time. And now when we do it earlier in the day, it happens at my house. And on top of that, I had to deal with the postal service. Today I have been trying to get a speaker for the center console of my eleven year old new car that I just purchased for myself at eleven years old. [00:01:12] Speaker B: Wow. [00:01:13] Speaker A: I did. And the speaker. The speaker. Why are they blowing the leaf blower stuff into my yard now, right from the neighbor's yard? [00:01:22] Speaker B: Because they don't care about it. [00:01:24] Speaker A: He says. Now they're getting closer. I don't even know what they're doing. They're in a full mask with the leaf blower on, like a, like gator mask. It's 60 degrees. I don't understand. Now they're gonna make all this noise. I can't edit out of the podcast and then I can't. Okay, so I have a center speaker and it's blown. So when you take a phone call, it's like crackly. And when you listen to the AM radio. AM radio? You know the AM radio? You know the AM radio station? Yeah, AM radio, yeah. Well, where I try to listen to the Seattle Mariners baseball games, which is also always a symphony of sadness. Even though we're in first place by five games. We'll give a little bit of a clue to people when we're recording this podcast. [00:02:12] Speaker B: Don't worry. [00:02:13] Speaker A: And then, yeah, it'll change. I'm sure by the time you listen to this podcast, we'll be in third place. But it's. It's. So I ordered one speaker, and it came from a used marketplace on eBay, and the speaker had a big hole in the middle of it. Oh. So I sent it back because it's unusable. That doesn't solve the problem. That would just be putting a speaker in that does the same thing. So then I ordered another speaker, and it looked very beautiful. And I get a notification from the post office that I need to go pick it up. So I go to pick it up, they look for it for 15 minutes. They help other people. They finally come back and find it, and they're like, oh, well, you need to pay additional postage to get the package. I'm like, what are you talking about? I didn't send the package. Wouldn't you be charging the additional postage to the person that sent the package and you've already. [00:03:02] Speaker B: You've already paid for the postage to be. [00:03:06] Speaker A: I've already paid for the postage and the item. [00:03:09] Speaker B: They did not pay the correct postage to send you the item. They just pocketed the postage thinking they made money, but they did not. I know this because I sell things occasionally online. You know this as well. [00:03:20] Speaker A: What is free shipping? It was free shipping technically, but, you know, that's usually incorporated into the price. If you are doing free shipping on eBay, you should be incorporating into the price, otherwise you are losing money. [00:03:31] Speaker B: Price of the product. [00:03:32] Speaker A: Yes. [00:03:32] Speaker B: So people out there listening, this is a learning situation for you. Always have a buffer on your price so that you can pay for that shipping and make sure that whatever it is that you're sending to somebody gets there and doesn't turn into this type of situation because nobody likes that. Right, Danielle? Make sure you got your. Because you don't want to. [00:03:51] Speaker A: Well, I don't have anything now, so I don't have a speaker. I told them to return it to sender. They apparently shipped it for 8oz and it was 1.4 pounds. I don't know what's going on. [00:04:03] Speaker B: 8Oz is like, the amount of food my dog eats in the morning. [00:04:08] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, I don't know. I mean, well, it's not. It's a little speaker. It's not a very heavy sub. This is just the little central console speaker, you know, the one that talks to you. This is not the music speaker. When music is playing, everything is fine. All the nice music is coming around from these nice big pioneer speakers on the edges. But, like, yeah, and anyway, oh, my God, I'm never going to get a speaker, you know, good news, though, I ordered another speaker on Amazon. [00:04:37] Speaker B: Okay. Yeah. [00:04:38] Speaker A: From a different vendor. But of course, now that speaker, I ordered that, but then saw, like, I'd already ordered the one on eBay, but then ordered this one, too. And then I was like, you know what? I think I will just not cancel it until I see that the other one works out. [00:04:59] Speaker B: Smart. Smart. [00:05:00] Speaker A: Yeah, because they were taking a long time to send it. So this is from. Not from. This is from like a third party vendor. Right. So all of you out there that think I'm being evil. I did. I had no plans to send the other one back. Actually, I was just going to cancel the order. Because they stop and sent it yet. Yes. So, yeah, maybe I'm a bad person now because I'm getting too many speakers. But I really am getting no speakers. [00:05:22] Speaker B: And that's why you're getting no speakers, because you're a bad person. It's karma. [00:05:27] Speaker A: Yeah, that must be it. I mean, I just want a speaker. I literally. [00:05:32] Speaker B: It came back and got you. It got you before you got it. You didn't get nothing. [00:05:37] Speaker A: Let's. Let's track the package on. Oh, this other one has not even been sent. Wow. [00:05:43] Speaker B: Life got you before it got. Before you got it. [00:05:46] Speaker A: I ordered it on May 28. [00:05:48] Speaker B: People, if you're listening and it has. [00:05:50] Speaker A: Not been sent yet. [00:05:51] Speaker B: If you're tracking what I'm saying as to the package that Dan is tracking, that's not coming. You, you all. You. You know what I mean, Dan. You, you, you. Obviously life knows bad man, Dan. Dan the bad man. [00:06:08] Speaker A: Well, let's call out Taylor auto parts zero two on eBay. Fuck off. Fuck off for not giving me my items. Right. We're gonna. You know what? Yeah. In fact, if you are a listener out there, I would just avoid Taylor auto parts and their 98.3 positive feedback rating. That's actually very not great on eBay, by the way. I should have maybe paid attention to that. Sounds like it's good. And so whatever they're stripping out of cars. Well, you know, I would give them a 10% positive feedback. Personally, that rating is about to go down today. So we're. You won't be, but I will be knocking that feedback rating down. It'll be going. They'll be adding a negative negative to their 626 positives and eleven negatives. But we'll be one will be adding more negatives. That's going to be happening also. If I go back in my eBay history, I can help everybody out and tell you who else not to shop with. If you want me to continue this, that's fine. Also transit Auto Inc. Yeah, fuck you for delivering shitty products to me and giving me a speaker with a hole in it. So I also avoid Transit Auto Inc. They have a actually higher feedback rating. So I went for it. I have not lowered their feedback rating yet, but he will watch out. Well, I think that one might be partly my fault because I think in the picture, I might have been able to see that the speaker was broken. Now, why they're selling broken speakers is a whole different question that, I mean. [00:07:45] Speaker B: Hey, they are selling it because they know that people like you, the customer is, there's going to be customers that are ordering several products out there, and you might not return one of the products that you get because I got a working one. Whatever. And they're hoping that you're just going to order and just sit on it and not return it. [00:08:14] Speaker A: Well, now I've got one coming from the AC Delco store itself. It's just taking forever. But it's supposed to be a brand new one. It's supposed to be perfect. Someday I will get it. Someday. Some, no, someday. Not Sunday. Someday. Someday in the far future, probably when I won't want a speaker anymore, but I will get this speaker. Yeah, I don't know. I don't think that's true. Based on the. Since it hasn't even been shipped yet, I don't think that's gonna happen. Yeah, apparently. Also, I was gonna check in on our, you know, speaker gate, and basically we're gonna call this speaker game until I get a speaker. This is speaker Gate. It's ridiculous. I think, I think I should start, like, a GoFundMe page for get Dan. [00:09:04] Speaker B: Get Dana speaker for the middle console. I mean, like, what else do you want, Dan? [00:09:07] Speaker A: Yeah. I mean, of a 2013 Chevy equinox. [00:09:11] Speaker B: It's a nice vehicle. I was looking at them the other day. [00:09:15] Speaker A: I like my car. [00:09:16] Speaker B: I want to ride in it. [00:09:18] Speaker A: Have you seen my car? [00:09:20] Speaker B: I looked at pictures of them when you told me what you're getting so I would know what it is that you'd be pulling up in. So I. I wouldn't go, who is this weird person coming up to my door or the store and yelling at me through the door or my window? [00:09:35] Speaker A: Right. Well, I would yell at you through the. I would ring the bell to get you to come and you would go away, Dan. Yeah. Like, it's like, it's just like, how much effort does it take for one human to get a speaker for their car? Like, this is insanity. [00:09:53] Speaker B: I don't know. I find it funny is you told me, you promised when you started you wouldn't. Maybe it was, you said you wouldn't start off with a bunch of obscenities, but boy, oh, boy, you let the obscenities fly. Cause you're very heated, Nate. [00:10:05] Speaker A: Well, everyone knows this is obscenity laden podcast. Like, there's no secret here. [00:10:10] Speaker B: Well, coming from your mouth, dan, you swear? [00:10:16] Speaker A: Look, just because. Just because you. Just because you don't embrace this, I mean, you know, it's also the time of year. As long as we're on obsidian lady rants, this is also the time of year that every company that hates gay people throughout the rest of the year puts rainbows and stuff on their company logos. [00:10:37] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. [00:10:38] Speaker A: It was so happy pride. On that note. Happy pride, everyone. I know this is gonna come up. This might actually come out after pride month is over, but you know what? I. So I should have been saying happy pride on other ones we recorded, knowing that they would come out at a certain time. This one probably comes out at the end. But you know what? Happy pride, everyone be happy. You don't have to be angry like me. That's okay. It's okay to be happy. If you got your speaker, which you probably did, you're way happier than I am, so it's fine. You probably also didn't have to go to the post office, which I will let you know, was not flying any pride flags at all because they hate gay people at the post office, and. And bisexual people, and lesbian people and trans people. The post office hates all of you. [00:11:31] Speaker B: Wow, that's a bold statement. [00:11:35] Speaker A: Well, actually, it might be true, I think. Actually it's not true right now, maybe. [00:11:39] Speaker B: I don't think it is. But. [00:11:40] Speaker A: But like, in November, it may be very much true. [00:11:42] Speaker B: It might be the people standing in front of the post office that don't. Because those, they can. They can do that for the discussions and discourse that I've had in the past with people standing in front of the post office, but, you know. Yeah. Yeah, I was going to say. [00:12:00] Speaker A: I mean, well, based on their lack of a display and their lack of any signs that give you instructions on where to go to get the things you need, even though they have special lines for certain things. A piece of yellow, a five s tape on the floor. And if you don't know what five s tape is, let me tell you, Greg and I can tell you all. [00:12:18] Speaker B: About five s tape. [00:12:20] Speaker A: Lean five s. But we're not going to do that right now. What is it like? Shine, sustain. I can only remember two of them right now. [00:12:26] Speaker B: There's so many. [00:12:27] Speaker A: It's okay. [00:12:28] Speaker B: Hey, everything. [00:12:29] Speaker A: There's five of the five s place. [00:12:31] Speaker B: Every place has a thing. [00:12:33] Speaker A: Yeah. Well, the good news, they have one piece of yellow tape on the floor that tells you where to stand, apparently for these pickups, but doesn't have a sign anywhere that says pickup. Here, there's a sign that says, like, ring the bell. Who knows when you ring the bell at the post office, what could possibly happen? I've looked at project nerd to see what could possibly happen if you were ringing the bell. [00:12:52] Speaker B: Yeah. What can happen? [00:12:53] Speaker A: For example, on Project nerd.com, you could end up with a really strange pasta counter that shows a horse and a. [00:13:01] Speaker B: Human, because humans eat horses or horses eat humans. Or you could eat as much pasta as a horse. That's. That's what I think they're getting at. I'm as hungry as. [00:13:12] Speaker A: Yeah. I also found out that if you have a nanny, that could be your ex husband in a costume. [00:13:21] Speaker B: Oh, oh, oh. That's a plot. I've seen that before. [00:13:26] Speaker A: I've seen that one before, I think. Yeah. I'm actually was trying to make up my normal thing about Project nerd, telling you what their website represents. But based on the random shit here of posts here, I have no idea what to tell you. They do. They got you project asher.com, project asch, nerd.com. go there for randomness and some sort of spandex podcast about wrestling. [00:13:51] Speaker B: Wrestling. Spandex podcast. And you're us. Yeah, yeah, all that. [00:13:56] Speaker A: I mean, after this one, there's no way we're gonna be on that channel. [00:14:01] Speaker B: But cuz Dan's rant about the post office and. And. And ebay sellers and all that. [00:14:07] Speaker A: Yeah, well, the important thing to remember is anything I say, there's probably no validity to it at all. But the other piece of that is Dan's opinion. Yeah, I mean, it's Dan's opinion. Well, yeah, I think we're probably going back to that. The post office probably does hate gay people, so, like, it's probably true. Okay, how do you know it's not true? Can you prove that it's. [00:14:32] Speaker B: We can. [00:14:33] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. You can't prove it's true. And I'm happily wearing my funny book forensics hat. No, I'm not. I'm wearing my TikTok Rainier's hat. You liar. No, I'm not. And it's a good news. Aren't you glad I did not wear my funny book forensics hat to the post office? [00:14:49] Speaker B: I am. [00:14:50] Speaker A: That's. That's like, now they just think that coma rainiers hate them. [00:14:56] Speaker B: That's. That's like when. Yeah, Ann and I went to a store for her shoes, and there was a very bad situation. And I was. I was wearing a shop hat, and the person was like, how can we make this better? And I was like, you can't. You've already made it terrible. [00:15:18] Speaker A: Yeah, I do love that. How can we make this better for you? How about, like, not be terrible? [00:15:25] Speaker B: Every experience here has been horrible. I apologize that I'm so blunt and honest, but this is just my natural setting. I cannot turn that off. So could you just finish the transaction and stop trying to upsell us on a program that we already bought that you're not providing for us because you can't find it in your system? And then they found it, and then they gave us all of the money. [00:15:53] Speaker A: Well, and I also just, like, I am like, I hate it, and I am not always perfect, but I don't like it. Like, if you are at a restaurant and people are bitching at the wait staff all the time, it's probably not the wait staff's fault. But if you are the direct person interacting with me and doing the thing, that probably is your fault. But also, it might be the fault of the systems that they have to deal with. [00:16:19] Speaker B: It's nine out of ten times. It's the system that someone is working within. It's a pay system, it's certain kind of seating system, whatever. [00:16:30] Speaker A: Bad software system, but bad. But I haven't been taught well, and. [00:16:34] Speaker B: It'S one of those things where it's like, just, if you can do the one thing that I'm asking you to do, that's all I need you to do. There's no way to make this situation either better or in. In this case, like, in. In certain cases, it's just going to get. Continue to get worse. So how can we. How can we fix that? You and I have been in situations where we've just got up and left a couple of times. We've done that at a few restaurants. Even Ann and I did that last week. We were just like, you know what? This is? This isn't working. We've only been here for five minutes, and we already know it's a bad idea. [00:17:08] Speaker A: And that's a much better approach than yelling at somebody. [00:17:12] Speaker B: Just know what your limits are in a situation and know if it's. If it's already gonna be bad. Like, you, you already know that your interaction is just. Just not okay. [00:17:23] Speaker A: And I think when I go to the post office, I have to, like, mentally prepare myself for, like, 15 minutes just for the trip. Well, because I know it's going to. [00:17:32] Speaker B: Be a situation where you. You have to go and engage. You can't just not. So you're stuck in it and, you know, it's just. [00:17:39] Speaker A: Well, they don't engage with you get there. So it's okay. It's just like. And the post office. See, I feel like it's. You're. It's okay to get mad at them because they're the same people that have been there forever all the time. [00:17:51] Speaker B: Sometimes they're just replicas of the ones that were there before. [00:17:56] Speaker A: Do you think so? I do think they're replicants. What if they were? You know, what? What if the people at the post office were. [00:18:01] Speaker B: I don't know. That could be true. They could be werewolves. My. My uncle, he worked at the post office, and he's very hairy. [00:18:11] Speaker A: I don't. If it's uncle I'm thinking of. [00:18:13] Speaker B: I don't know. [00:18:15] Speaker A: Thank God. I don't. I don't. I don't. I was about to say, please, uncle. You broke my brain right there. [00:18:22] Speaker B: I have five uncles. And your interactions are only generally with the one here in the Pacific Northwest. [00:18:32] Speaker A: I had so many thoughts, but now I can't share any of them. [00:18:36] Speaker B: My uncle, my postal. My postal post office uncle, who just retired, I think another replicant just took over his position. And they are a werewolf, of course, much like the werewolves we're covering in this book. [00:18:52] Speaker A: Well, we probably should get to this book. I mean, I feel like I've been on any possible. You know, I feel like it's a perfect day. The trip to the post office set me up to review this book because the book is as bad or worse than experience at the post office. It is, man. [00:19:11] Speaker B: It's got exactly what you've been asking for for the last four issues. [00:19:17] Speaker A: Let's be clear. I was only asking for it because I was told this was about Captain America being where got it. I did not ask. I did not ask to do Cap Wolf. Our listeners, you said, when are we. [00:19:29] Speaker B: Going to get Cap Wolf? Because I'm not getting that in this book because there's no cap. [00:19:34] Speaker A: That is true on the COVID but let's rip the band aid off. And actually, after three freaking issues, in part four, we get cap Wolf. Wolf. [00:19:43] Speaker B: No cap. [00:19:44] Speaker A: We were promised. Well, I guess because it's called man and Wolf. Maybe that Captain America. Okay, so. Okay, wait. We're gonna. We're gonna flip the page. I have question. I have questions for you. You have not fully been disclosing to me about Captain America. And I am very upset because I've asked you questions and you have not answered them properly. And now I'm putting you, your feet to the fire here. So, yes, this is a cool cover. We have a red background with an obscure scared werewolf face with a scary mouth. And the Captain America Shield is covering up America. So it's just Captain Shield. Shield. Wolf man hungry and yeah, man and wolf. Part four of six got Captain America up in the corner, of course, late, late August of some year, I think 1992. That is correct. The COVID date, release date was June 24, 1992. So I'm, I'm sure the entire comic book world is abuzz. On June 24, 1992, people were running to the stores. This went to a second 3rd, 4th printing. Because it's so popular. [00:20:54] Speaker B: People couldn't believe they were, they were like, oh, my gosh. This book right here, this run can't wait. [00:21:04] Speaker A: This led the sales charts. I mean, we have a Batman appearance in this book. It's pretty crazy. [00:21:10] Speaker B: I know. People are like, what? In a Marvel book, there's a Batman. We'll get there. Just wait. [00:21:17] Speaker A: Yeah. Well, I think we should turn the page here to the first page because here we're back to, this is Doctor Nightshade. Not be, not to be confused with Doctor midnight from DC Comics. [00:21:32] Speaker B: No confusion. [00:21:35] Speaker A: Yeah. If you aren't aware, the legacy Doctor midnight character in infinity, Inc. Was an african american woman named Beth. If you've watched Stargo, they had a younger version of that. If you knew that. And just like all the other analog characters in this book where they just copy from each other, we, we created a african american woman in a skin tight suit, uh, that's calling herself doctor or something. Doctor Nightshade instead of Doctor midnight. [00:22:04] Speaker B: Funny, because her name is Elsbeth, I'm sure. Yeah. [00:22:10] Speaker A: Interesting. I wonder what, I wonder what. Doctor Nietzsche, didn't she have a name? And, and her name is Tilda, apparently. [00:22:18] Speaker B: Tilde. [00:22:20] Speaker A: Oh, no. She was known as Deadly Nightshade. Doctor Nightshade, apparently. Oh, oh, in the, in the seventies. Oh, she was the original queen of the werewolves. So this was the same lady that was in the thing with. [00:22:42] Speaker B: Yes. So it's a follow on with, with the, okay, so the falcon. [00:22:47] Speaker A: So she is, she is a legacy character. So I take that back. Her being in the skin tight outfit, being a doctor legit, that's the only ripoff from the DC piece. Well, they should have left her in her original costume. It's fantastic here. Like, this is, this is actually worth taking a minute. I know no one else can see the costume, but if you want to look up her costume, it looks like she's you. Absolutely. [00:23:11] Speaker B: This costume looks like it's a mixture of gore. And I want to say, see, that's. [00:23:20] Speaker A: Yeah, okay. [00:23:21] Speaker B: That's very. Well, I mean, timely for the time that they're making that book, too. [00:23:26] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:23:27] Speaker B: But the costume that she's in is very like gore meets. Oh, man. What I want to say. Oh, kiss. Yeah. It's like skin tight, but war. Yeah. [00:23:39] Speaker A: Did you say meet kiss and. And Mad Max. [00:23:44] Speaker B: We don't need another hero, but we need another wolf. [00:23:49] Speaker A: We've got the faux road warrior shoulder pads, except they go up. It's sort of like a big circle. Yeah. [00:23:55] Speaker B: Barbed wire. [00:23:56] Speaker A: It's a. Well, anyway, she's injecting him, and he's going to turn into a werewolf. It's very exciting. Okay, so cap transforms into a werewolf, and we get a title befitting a title I would give to our podcast, dances with werewolves. Yeah, very creative. [00:24:12] Speaker B: They're just use that as our straight up werewolves for that's the. [00:24:19] Speaker A: We'll see if I remember that by. [00:24:21] Speaker B: The time I name dances with werewolves. [00:24:25] Speaker A: Werewolves. Can we call it break dances, where. [00:24:29] Speaker B: It'S a werewolf break dance dance. [00:24:31] Speaker A: I feel like he does do more break dancing in here than he does. [00:24:35] Speaker B: They're actually dance battling. So instead of, like, instead of fighting with all the other werewolves, he's, like, in a breakdance battle with them. Very much like all of our favorite step up movies. Oh, that would be great. I want that cap wolf. Give it to me. [00:24:52] Speaker A: Well, here's some good news about this comic, and I like nell. Sell your jokes like I normally do. Mark Grunwald wrote it, and the scripting in this book was so terrible that I forgot that the Rick Levin's pencils were not great. And Steve Alexandrov, maybe that's it. Maybe it was Steve Alexandrov inking this that made it a little bit better, because we did change inkers from bolognati, so I actually don't remember thinking the art was as bad in this one, I guess, as we go through. Well, Joe Rosen lettered it, Gina going colored it. Ralph Macchio edits it, I guess, even though he keeps forgetting to tell us that Doctor Nightshade was the. I think we learned that last issue, right? That she was legacy, but. Or did we just learn? Did we actually learn she was legacy? Or did we just learn that the Falcon had just learned the falcon, but we didn't learn. Yeah, it seems like that she has existed in the Captain America universe before. Should have been like known before now. Yeah, but that's okay. And Tom DeFacco is called leader of the pack, which. You know what that means. [00:25:59] Speaker B: He's on a motorcycle room. He's the leader of the back room. He's a bad man. And then. Wait, doesn't that mean he also. Oh, rest in peace. Because that's like. [00:26:13] Speaker A: He's also. He's also the leader of the clone. [00:26:15] Speaker B: Okay, leader. Yeah. [00:26:17] Speaker A: The spider clones. Yeah, yeah. Maybe we should read that. [00:26:23] Speaker B: Gosh. Okay. [00:26:25] Speaker A: Spider clone saga. [00:26:28] Speaker B: Are you saying. No, whatever you want, man. Whatever you want. [00:26:32] Speaker A: Like, I always wanted to learn about the origin of the scarlet spider. Yeah, that's great. All of a sudden, there's this scarlet spider character running around. I had no idea what they were. Well, anyway, cap bounces up from his chair and yells, graar. It's a good thing we're doing this in the daytime, because we would have to do a drinking game for this if we were doing at night. And I would be very drunk because of all. [00:26:57] Speaker B: Well, I want you. I'm hoping, because you. You do a great play by play when it gets to all of the. All of the talking. Like, you know, cap talking as a werewolf, I'm hoping that you cover all that. [00:27:10] Speaker A: Okay, well, we're already. We've already started. So there are these weird red balloon things every time. Cap is 20 pages as a werewolf. Yeah, for the next 20 pages. Additionally, they are black on red, which is great for contrast when you're reading, so bother that. Thanks. Thanks for that, doc. Deadly. Deadly. Doctor Nightshade is wanting to get more werewolves, and she's, like, yelling, he's out of control. And the Dreadman guy is yelling, stop. And captain is going trapped out. Find way out. Opening where? Must be somewhere. Voice bad. Voice not listen. Bad. Shiny thing might take. Not listen. Take. Shiny thing not listen. [00:28:02] Speaker B: Yep. [00:28:04] Speaker A: Next page. Oh, my next page is blank. [00:28:11] Speaker B: Your next page is blank? Oh, no. This is, like, the best page. [00:28:16] Speaker A: Yeah, well, good news. I'm gonna have to shift to the tablet because I flipped the page on the computer on my high speed network, brought to me by quantum fiber. That makes me actually show up. Yeah, as not too grainy. You're actually showing up today, and my Internet's failing. I don't know. You know, the way things have been going today. I mean, this. This seems right and appropriate for how today. So I will flip the page here. Good news. I have in my tablet right here, because I was reading this, and he says, make out now. Make way out now. Still not climb up. Get out. Must run free. [00:28:57] Speaker B: Run free. [00:28:57] Speaker A: And then people outside are like, my goodness. Oh, what's going on? And he's holding his shield. He says, out bright. Sun too bright. Hurts. Eyes feel funny. Sick inside. [00:29:11] Speaker B: Oh, no. [00:29:13] Speaker A: And then we flip the page, and we've got our good friends here. Doctor. Deadly. Doctor nitrate. Deadly nightshade. And. Mister. Dredman. [00:29:24] Speaker B: Mister Dredman. [00:29:26] Speaker A: Doctor Dredman. [00:29:27] Speaker B: He's doctor what? [00:29:29] Speaker A: Where do you think he got his. Where do you think these folks got their doctorates at? [00:29:32] Speaker B: I'm gonna say they did a send away. They probably. They probably did their precursor stuff over at the community college. You pick. And. And then they, they did everything send away. So definitely mail in stuff or. [00:29:48] Speaker A: Oh, I saw they got their doctorates at Evergreen State University. [00:29:52] Speaker B: Whoa, whoa. Excuse me. But they can't get it. [00:30:00] Speaker A: Excuse me. You're right. You're right. I apologize. The Evergreen State University. [00:30:04] Speaker B: I don't think you can get a doctorate there. [00:30:09] Speaker A: Okay, that does explain some things. [00:30:11] Speaker B: Because if I could, I would. [00:30:16] Speaker A: Would you got your doctorate in psychonomics? [00:30:18] Speaker B: No. [00:30:22] Speaker A: I would have, probably because then you. Because then you couldn't see it. [00:30:26] Speaker B: Yeah. That's fantastic. You know, I don't think he was actually, like, when I. When I was going. I don't think he was. He was in the show at that point. He was like, a couple years later. [00:30:49] Speaker A: Oh, okay. Well, you could have had the original degree. A doctorate in psychology. Well, like, he would. Well, anyway, they walk outside and there's all these folks hanging out in town because it's daylight and they don't want to be werewolves right now. And then Doctor Dreadmond. Doctor Mister Dreadmond. Angry, angry purple kid. Purple guy changes a whole bunch of people into werewolves. [00:31:18] Speaker B: Snap of a finger, werewolf time. [00:31:21] Speaker A: Whoa. And he's like, captain America did not revert to human in sunlight. You gave him my new compound? Yes. He'll be easier to track. So they're. They're gonna find him. But she does point out, and this is where I have questions for you. The top of the page. They are he. Dreadman says, it appears that your potion interacted with his super soldier serum. You should have anticipated it. Now, when we were last reading, he did not have a super soldier serum. And now Diamondback is trying to get the blood with the super soldier serum traces in it, which should still mean he doesn't have it. It's just the trace system. So. So I thought he didn't have the super soldier serum anymore. So why is he. He's just a human? Because steroids are bad. [00:32:09] Speaker B: I think, inevitably, the super soldier's serum is in his system. He might not be taking it currently, but whatever trace is in there is there. It's not completely gone. It's not like you can blast it all out. It's probably still there on a. On a base level. So I'm sure. I'm sure that's something that was covered. [00:32:30] Speaker A: Is there now? Now you read these comics. Is there a comic within between when we read now and last time that he started taking. [00:32:39] Speaker B: Okay, but I could be wrong. I mean, my hit. My memory is not. It used to be. And boy, oh, boy, I'm gonna say. I mean, life way. [00:32:52] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:32:52] Speaker B: You know, you end up with swiss cheese brain, you know? [00:32:59] Speaker A: Oh, so you're basically Dennis Dunphy. [00:33:02] Speaker B: Yes. What? Who? Why? What? Huh? Huh? [00:33:08] Speaker A: What? How? How? Like, you should know, because he's in this book, and we've already talked about him in two other podcasts. [00:33:17] Speaker B: I am. I'm sorry, I'm not a. I'm not a global class wrestler. A world unlimited global class. He's. Yes, I do have the gingery hair. It's gonna become white someday in the spots. But, hey. Yes, my memory is. What? What were you talking about? [00:33:44] Speaker A: Yeah, you can't get away with this. The listeners know of your love, and. Well, you know, what I could tell you is in none of the books behind me, do any of them reference all my comics history books here? Talk about the, you know, the. Getting the super soldier serum back. So I'm. I don't have. [00:34:05] Speaker B: He's gotten it back. He's just. It's just in his system, I think. It's just in his system. I don't see. [00:34:10] Speaker A: Well, I think he got it back at some point. [00:34:12] Speaker B: I don't think so. I don't think that. I don't think. I don't think the cap's gonna be juicing it up. [00:34:18] Speaker A: Well, anyway, he's in the woods, and he says, woods run free. Need to run. Need to run. Need to run. [00:34:24] Speaker B: Need to run. [00:34:26] Speaker A: He doesn't say. He. He thinks. Now we go back to Central park. [00:34:31] Speaker B: Hey. [00:34:32] Speaker A: And we have a guy who's six foot nine, sitting on a bicycle. To sit on a bicycle like that, you have to be very tall. And the wrestler guy, Dennis. And is that black widow? [00:34:47] Speaker B: No, it's. Oh, shoot. [00:34:50] Speaker A: Why can't I miss Rosenthal? Okay, why in Jarvis leaves, Jarvis is still in his butler's outfit, wandering through Central park. [00:35:03] Speaker B: Leaves, man. Have you ever seen him change? Maybe at one time. [00:35:07] Speaker A: Well, he needs. I hope he has some sunscreen. On that rough? [00:35:12] Speaker B: Yeah, he's gonna get a burn. [00:35:15] Speaker A: Well, anyway, some guy comes and steals, or she wants to keep him out there and longer, and she's talking to him. And by the way, I would just like to point out he was apparently Captain America's partner between the books we read. And you should just never, ever, ever become Captain America's partner, because bad things. [00:35:34] Speaker B: Will happen to you. [00:35:36] Speaker A: Yeah. Or he'll just lose you and not find you again. [00:35:39] Speaker B: Yeah, this is true. [00:35:39] Speaker A: I mean, he lost the falcon at one point. He lost Bucky. We know that. He lost this guy. He lost Diamondback, who you wanted to have sex with and be his partner. So, like, two levels. I think he's lost black widow at times. I believe. I believe. Yeah, he did throw into the ocean. Like, he's just. Yeah, he just. And a moral of the story is, honestly, Captain America needs to work alone. [00:36:07] Speaker B: Cap, you got a. You got a losing problem. [00:36:13] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, anyway, we flip the page, and the purse snatcher is run. And she goes to chase down the purse, and Mister Dunphy just stands there looking buff and looking away. [00:36:28] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:36:29] Speaker A: Well, now we get back to Starks, bro. Oh, I forgot about this guy. [00:36:33] Speaker B: You forgot? [00:36:34] Speaker A: Yeah, shitty doctor Strange is back. [00:36:38] Speaker B: Oh, he's back. Back again. [00:36:41] Speaker A: Oh, and he's like, I hope Captain America doesn't think I deserted him. Well, you kind of did. Like, where did you go? Apparently. And he's like, I'm gonna find the power behind the werewolves, as I am the biggest expert on druidism and stuff. And I know that the town is lycanthropic, and I can say big words. You know, I have a new coworker who just likes to use all these big words that no one else really knows. And then. And then to sound important, that's. [00:37:14] Speaker B: This guy is your new coworker? [00:37:16] Speaker A: I'm gonna nick nickname my coworker at work. Maybe I will name them Doctor Jared. [00:37:20] Speaker B: How are you doing today? And they're like, well, I don't get it. You're like, that's okay. [00:37:23] Speaker A: I don't get it. [00:37:25] Speaker B: You don't have to either. [00:37:27] Speaker A: As long as I get it. Well, doctor, druids wandering around, and he sees a shiny rock. Oh, shiny rock. That's the. The blood red crystal is back. We've seen that before. And Doctor Dredmund is aware of his presence, and he summons his silly hat. And now we've got one guy in a purple suit. We got fake Loki, we got purple suit Loki, and purple suit Loki is about to fight with shitty doctor strange, and they have the most invigorating fight ever. They stare at each other and purple shit shoots out of their eyes and it just hovers in the middle of the page. [00:38:08] Speaker B: I'm so angry at you, I'm gonna purple shit out my eyes. [00:38:13] Speaker A: And on cue, as we're doing the podcast, I'm talking about the stupid, crappy Loki and crappy doctor strange. My neighbors across the street decide to rev their shitty, crappy Mustang or charger or whatever the thing out there is. That. And I. And I'm not talking the old cool ones. I'm talking one of the new ones. So nice. Yeah. Anyway, all right, well, good news. I'm sure all the listeners got that to hear that exciting thing. And now we've got. We're back to Captain America, and he's like, hard to think. Not feel right, feel different. What happened to me? What am I? What am I? What was I? What do they want from me? Ask them what I am. Can't speak words in head, but lost in throat. Must tell them I'm not enemy, not hider, not. Not a hider, not hunted person who made us. This is enemy. Uh, okay, that's some more werewolf. [00:39:14] Speaker B: Looks all funny, too. Like, he doesn't look like. Like he looks like the friendliest wolf. Like. [00:39:22] Speaker A: Like Juliet, except happy, just. [00:39:27] Speaker B: Hey, guys, what's going on? You know. [00:39:32] Speaker A: He'S like, look at me. Look. I just want belly rubs and scratches. Yeah. Well, then on the next page, he's in the woods with all the other werewolves, and he says, come follow me. We can't fight him. Force him to change us back to what we were. Understand me? No surrounding me. Growl. Going to attack. Not going to waste energy fighting. Not enemies. Legs not know I can leap so high. Wait, wait. I thought Captain America was an acrobatics specialist. And one of the big things about his powers, like was agility and leaping. [00:40:08] Speaker B: I know as a wolf he could jump so high. [00:40:11] Speaker A: Oh, okay, well, go back to human town. Find human force, turn me back. Man with long claws, know him? Forgot name. Wolverine, by the way, just jumps out of a tree. [00:40:24] Speaker B: He just starts just destroying on him. Snickety snick, here's my long claws. [00:40:36] Speaker A: Well, he hits the vibranium versus adamantium. It. It shoots off some sparks and. And cap says, sharp claws, shiny thing. Stop them. Wants to kill me. No reason to fight. Maybe he understand me. Growl, growl. Must find person who makes us animal. Thought he was understanding me as Wolverine cuts his shoulder or cap. And then he says, pain. Blood. Heartbeat can't stop. And he swipes and scratches Wolverine's eyes and dispatches Wolverine with like, one hit and throws him into the war and throws him into the werewolves. And he says, ungra crazy thinking. That's not the noise is making, that's what he's thinking inside. And we get. We do stuff, some good noises on the page. We have a grog, a svix, a para, a womb and an. So it's, uh. And then Captain America is still running through woods going, Hoorar. And we get an elsewhere and we've got Doctor lame and Doctor stupid staring at each other, locking. And still the purple beam is. And. And shitty Doctor Strange is, like, giving enough mental force to give him a hemorrhage. He must be using something, that gem. I've got to destroy it. They keep talking about this gem for, like, you know, the entire book. Like, I guess a gem is key to everything. So why don't we just toss it in the Hudson river and be done. [00:42:14] Speaker B: Get rid of it. Destroy it. [00:42:19] Speaker A: Well, meanwhile, back in Central park, apparently miss what's her face. I already forgot. Miss Rosenthal has lost. [00:42:30] Speaker B: How did she do that? He's a mountain of a man. [00:42:34] Speaker A: Yeah. Well, anyway, we go back to Massachusetts and Shitty Lobo shows up to go take out cap on his sky cycle or whatever it is. That's captain whatever, his shitty fake lobo cycle. And cap says here, noise above machine. Noise heard before, not turn around, keep running. Choking. Silver rope, silver face on machine, not let him choke me. And he pulls moonbeam, or whatever the hell he is. Moonshine. No, that's a good comic. [00:43:08] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:43:09] Speaker A: What is his name again? [00:43:10] Speaker B: No. [00:43:11] Speaker A: Moon dragon. [00:43:12] Speaker B: Moon. [00:43:14] Speaker A: Moon hunter. Yeah, he pulls him and he pulls. Hit his shitty sky cycle or. No, he. His. His motorcycle crashes into a house. So. So much for Shitty Lobos motorcycle. And then he. And then he's like, the fall knocked the wind out of me and. But my padding took the brunt of it, so it turns out all those padding, all the uniform padding, and he keeps talking about his. When you keep talking about. Yeah, well, that could be true. I was just going to go back to. When you keep talking about your padding, you may be lacking in and area. [00:43:51] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm just thinking it's a. It's either a very small person or a child. [00:43:58] Speaker A: Well, uh, he's like, he didn't anticipate such strength out of Captain America, who's now a werewolf. [00:44:03] Speaker B: That's underestimating your. Yeah, that's bad. [00:44:09] Speaker A: Well, back in Dredman's lair. Shitty Loki wins against shitty doctor Strange and then makes fun of him as we've been doing. He says, anthony Drew, alias Doctor Druid, the world's leading authority on druidism. Fah. You've been defeated, Anthony. Overwhelmed by my superior might, as he has in every single battle he's been in the entire four issues. So now Cap is wandered back to the town and he says, inside town, need to find Doctor woman. Make her change me back. And she's looking rather alluring on the balcony. [00:44:49] Speaker B: Hey, cap. [00:44:50] Speaker A: And she says, oh, captain, are you looking for me by chance? And he goes, Doctor woman, yes. And she says, hurt me, and any hope you have for changing back to human is lost forever. Do you understand? She says, good boy. And then she's gonna give him a belly rub before next issue. And she's like, he's dos doing it. Becoming docile at the sound of my voice, the scent of my pheromones. Ah, good to see the old queen of werewolves lost it. We find out there should be an editor's note right there with an issue fucking number where she was there before. But we don't because Ralph Macchio is a crappy editor. [00:45:25] Speaker B: You said it. [00:45:28] Speaker A: I'll say. I've said it like a hundred times. [00:45:32] Speaker B: Oh, boy. [00:45:33] Speaker A: I mean, it should be down there. There should be a little asterisk down there. And there should be an issue reference, correct. [00:45:39] Speaker B: There should be a reference that, yes, we've already seen this character. We. We have. You don't know it. You don't know it through all the other issues, but then all of a sudden the reference is there and it's like, oh, bt dubs, people head on back 2020 years at this point now. I mean, well, 20 years at the point when it was read, when it was written. Right? [00:46:02] Speaker A: But still, there should be a reference to that character showed up before. [00:46:05] Speaker B: That's what I'm saying. There should be a reference. It's like 30 plus years now. 40. [00:46:13] Speaker A: Well, we turn the page. [00:46:17] Speaker B: Whoa. Diamondback. Cross country. [00:46:23] Speaker A: Diamondback. Remember last issue? Diamondback was trying to steal Captain Beck's blood. So she is doing it again. And then the security guy comes. This story is written by Mark Grenwald, Larry Alexander, Arion does inks. And Ariane doesn't have a name. Just Arian, just no, not two names. And Steve Detrows is on letters. And we get the title of the book, cross country. And basically we're gonna go quickly through this one. Diamondback gets some blood. The security guy comes in and is like, you shouldn't do that. And then she holds one of her little diamond things, like, she's gonna cut him, and then he just lets her go. [00:47:00] Speaker B: Yeah, you're free to go. [00:47:02] Speaker A: And then she leaves, and she gets in a car with crossbones, and then. And then crossbones is like, okay, cool. Thank you. You passed the test. And then they apparently drive across country in one panel all the way to Colorado. [00:47:16] Speaker B: Yeah, they do it in one panel. [00:47:17] Speaker A: They go up on a mountain, and. [00:47:19] Speaker B: They get some gas. [00:47:20] Speaker A: Yeah, apparently. And then they. They get there, and they're climbing a mountain, and then they're gonna get in a fight with shitty Batman. Genghis Khan, a guy. Genghis Khan. Shitty Batman and shitty hobby. [00:47:36] Speaker B: Yeah, it's very. It's. Yeah, dead on. [00:47:40] Speaker A: And if Hobgoblin is shitty green goblin, then it's like, shitty. Shitty hog. [00:47:45] Speaker B: Oh, the shittiest. [00:47:50] Speaker A: Yeah, I mean, that's the story. Okay. All out war. Next. I would spend more time on the diamondback story, but there's really nothing to it. Like, in eight pages, they just. [00:48:03] Speaker B: Here you go. [00:48:05] Speaker A: And apparently, she's. We. I guess we don't know if she's gonna turn on cross. [00:48:13] Speaker B: Crossbones to fight off these. These three rogues, because it's. It's crazy. This Batman looks kind of like Batman 249 or 20 49, 27. Yeah, I mean, is it 20 49, 20? Yeah, he looks like. He looks like future. Future Batman. It's. It's a very. The character design, and I'm like, that wasn't even the thing at that point, but it became that. Maybe they stuck. Maybe they took this design and turned it into that. It's a. [00:48:46] Speaker A: Well, I've got some letters. [00:48:47] Speaker B: We got a letter or two. All right, let's hear. [00:48:51] Speaker A: Yeah, I feel like they're. They're lukewarm assessments of what's going on. Get it from. From Dan Wermert of 230 zero eight East Carson street, apartment one. Is this really you? Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 515 203-2110 we could reach out. So if you want to reach out to him, you can. He says, dear capsters, I am 26, and I used to read Captain America as a kid. However, in the late seventies, the story has changed from exciting to dull. No new villains, no new reasons for the fight, etcetera. So I dropped the book. However, Captain America 398 caught my eye, and the story was original, well planned, and very well executed. Now, with Operation Galactic Storm going on here and as well as other titles, my hats off to you, Ralph and Pat. Someone finally woke up and gave cap a life with Diamondback as his girlfriend. Well, that's changed between now and then, and as such, just only in, like, a few issues. Yeah. However, the feud between Cap and Iron man has been done before with Cap and Hawkeye, and the feud between Captain America and Iron man will be done again in the amazing, epic Civil War, which you can watch in theaters and or read, which I can't read anymore because, well, I could read on the Marvel app, but I actually had and sell all of mine at the store because it's a shitty, fucking terrible story, and I didn't even want it in my 16,000 comment issue. [00:50:18] Speaker B: You didn't want it because. Because why? [00:50:21] Speaker A: Civil War made me quit buying Marvel comics, so. Didn't make me. I chose to. When they unmasked Spider Man, I was like, yeah, we're done. When Spider. When. When Spider man. [00:50:32] Speaker B: Spoiler. [00:50:33] Speaker A: Government spoiler. I'm done. I'm done anyway. Cap, Hawkeye, they are each leaders of a team now. Solve cap. Iron man dispute over who's leading another ten years. I'm looking forward to 400 with the Falcon again. The Falcon was there. [00:50:49] Speaker B: Falcon was there. [00:50:50] Speaker A: Falcon. Now, cap always did better as a team player. No patently faults. We're finding out he abandons every partner. He's not a team player at all. And he put all the Avengers support staff in the same jumpsuits. I mean, I guess the good thing about putting them all in the same jumpsuits was that one episode of Rick and Morty I mentioned a couple episodes ago. I mean, at least we got that because of that, right? But, yeah, well, you know, I mean, people were kind of liking it, I guess. [00:51:22] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. [00:51:26] Speaker A: I don't know. I mean, they seem pretty terrible to me, but, like, oh, here we go. Here's Bradford R. Poston from 40 five East River Road, Tucson, Arizona, 85718. Now, it's interesting. I wouldn't have expected there to be a river road in Tucson, Arizona. I mean, I know there's rivers there, but, you know, just anyway. Well, Captain America 399 was really read more like an issue of Avengers than one of cap, though I suppose. Certainly uniformity of style is inevitably inevitable in these multi part crossovers. So I would highlight that this, like, 399 and stuff they're referencing was a crossover book, too. So maybe that's what's going on. Maybe that's why people liked it and they were forcing you to buy the cat. [00:52:15] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:52:17] Speaker A: Well, good news. Rick Levins is in blackface at the bottom of the page. [00:52:22] Speaker B: So is it. Is that what it is, or is he dressed like a werewolf? [00:52:28] Speaker A: Oh, I'm going. [00:52:29] Speaker B: I thought he was dressed as a werewolf. [00:52:32] Speaker A: Are you sure? [00:52:33] Speaker B: Because he's got claws. He's got a. It's. It's brown. [00:52:38] Speaker A: Okay. [00:52:39] Speaker B: I'm just trying to. Because, you know, the listeners can only hear what you're saying. I'm seeing a visual representation. He's got a nose, he's got a lips. He's got some accents as to, like, whiskers or whatever. [00:52:52] Speaker A: So you're saying it's not as problematic as it looks? [00:52:54] Speaker B: It's not as problematic as it actually looks. [00:52:59] Speaker A: Yeah. Okay. [00:53:02] Speaker B: It doesn't tell you what he's dressed as or what he's supposed to be, but, yes, I think he's a werewolf. But it's. [00:53:10] Speaker A: It's. [00:53:11] Speaker B: Well, because he's right. He's doing a werewolf book, so he dressed up as a werewolf for fun. But they should have said that because, yes, it is very into. In 1992.

Well, Wolverine's already been here and the book still terrible. What is the purpose of Wolverine in the story so far? [00:54:25] Speaker B: No good reason why he's there, except for, hey, listen, put a needle in his eye and make him a werewolf. [00:54:31] Speaker A: And they didn't make him a werewolf. [00:54:32] Speaker B: He became werewolf for, like, one panel and then reverted back because he's too strong for the serum. [00:54:40] Speaker A: But then they can mind control him anyway, so he's weak. [00:54:43] Speaker B: That's. [00:54:44] Speaker A: Well, it looks like it's gonna be.

[00:58:05] Speaker B: We don't have a no working title currently. [00:58:10] Speaker A: Oh, I thought we were going to get a scoop right here on, you see, as a steam member of the comic book media, I slid that comment in and almost got. He almost gave me an answer, but then he, then, you know, like all crafty authors, just slid right back in there. And it's gonna make you wait and anticipate. [00:58:29] Speaker B: Next thing, you have to wait till the skit. We have to wait till the schedule comes out. Then they give us a. Oh, hey, we got a working title we're gonna run with and all that other stuff, so, I mean, I got. [00:58:40] Speaker A: All right, well, you have any other. [00:58:43] Speaker B: Plugs besides all those other plugs besides all those at the moment? Those are the things, you know, we got. Supernatural baby detective is gonna be coming back to you for another, another fun Kickstarter, so you'll be hearing about that for me. [00:59:02] Speaker A: All right, we'll let you. We'll let you know when that's ready, and we'll have links and stuff. If you liked supernatural baby detective, you know, I think that. I think that doctor Druid would have been wiped out by supernatural baby detective. [00:59:18] Speaker B: I think so. Doctor Druid, he would have gone up against supernatural baby detective, and the baby detective would have taken him out his knees, I think. [00:59:28] Speaker A: Yes. Yes, I do. Yes, I do. [00:59:31] Speaker B: You know why? Because supernatural baby detective is. Is set here in the Seattle area in the Pacific Northwest, and supernatural baby detective takes classes with jujitsu lawyer Paul. [00:59:47] Speaker A: Does he, now? Okay, well, all right. I mean, that may be true. [00:59:54] Speaker B: We don't know. I mean, continuity wise, not only is. [00:59:57] Speaker A: He supernatural, but he can put on a mean arm. Boss. [01:00:01] Speaker B: Sweep the link. [01:00:04] Speaker A: Wow. Well, there we go. That's. Yeah. Well, on that note, until we get to a better comic book, I will be logging off. [01:00:17] Speaker B: We are gonna finish this out in. [01:00:19] Speaker A: All its glory next time. So next time, we're covering issue 406 instead of the 405 we covered this time, and then, you know what? I should have thought about this at the start, but the 405 is always a nightmare. [01:00:35] Speaker B: True, true. Oh, my gosh. [01:00:37] Speaker A: And it continues on. No matter when I see that number, it's always terrible. So there we go. [01:00:42] Speaker B: Very good. [01:00:43] Speaker A: All right, well, we should probably wrap this up on that note on a Seattle traffic note that in Bellevue, traffic note that nobody gets except people that live up here, we'll just say the 405 sucks, and so did this book, and with that, I'm out of here. [01:00:55] Speaker B: Me too. [01:00:57] Speaker A: Take care of yourselves. I hope you had fun listening and we will see you soon. [01:01:01] Speaker B: Bye. I'm trying. It's there.
