Transcript
Laura:

Hello and welcome to Gais.

2

:

Baltar is a little bitch.

3

:

This is the podcast all about how

Gais Baltar is a little bitch.

4

:

I'm your host, Laura.

5

:

Xhafer: I am Jair.

6

:

Beth: And uh, I'm also on the

guy's, Balter is a bitch train.

7

:

This is Beth.

8

:

Laura: Yeah, and that's not

actually the name of our podcast.

9

:

I made a joke.

10

:

Xhafer: It can be for

11

:

this one.

12

:

Beth: a good joke he's a bitch.

13

:

Laura: tried to make an email

address too, and it wouldn't let me.

14

:

Did you know Gmail doesn't like

swear words in an email address?

15

:

I

16

:

Beth: know that.

17

:

I did know that.

18

:

'cause one of my email addresses starts

with sassy bastard and I had to change the

19

:

spelling of bastard to make it accepted.

20

:

Laura: Oh, yeah.

21

:

Can't use those special

characters though, either.

22

:

I tried that.

23

:

Beth: Yeah, no,

24

:

Laura: Yeah.

25

:

Maybe we should tell the

people who we really are.

26

:

Beth: Oh yes.

27

:

Okay.

28

:

Probably.

29

:

Xhafer: uh, We're Who are you?

30

:

We're a reasonably well done sci-fi

watch cast, hosted by a couple friends

31

:

who used to be strangers back in

like season one of Babylon five.

32

:

But that was a long ass time ago.

33

:

Now we just shoot the shit all the time.

34

:

It's great.

35

:

Laura: it's the best.

36

:

And we get to hang out with like

each other's partners and stuff.

37

:

It's amazing.

38

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

39

:

Beth, my partner, also co-host

with you over on Cool Girls

40

:

Don't Look at Explosions.

41

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

42

:

Now in season two

43

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

44

:

Which I feel like as a man, I

should really take the lead in

45

:

explaining your podcast for you.

46

:

Beth: Absolutely.

47

:

Why don't you mansplain

to the people our podcast.

48

:

Xhafer: See, what they do is they take

their unique feminine perspective and they

49

:

watch TV shows that my dad would've really

liked from like the eighties and nineties.

50

:

Laura: mm.

51

:

Xhafer: And they do that

with the women brains.

52

:

Oh, I gotta stop now.

53

:

Beth: Oh no.

54

:

Oh,

55

:

Laura: Oh, there's the line

56

:

Xhafer: there.

57

:

It

58

:

is.

59

:

Found it.

60

:

I was gonna keep going until I

found it, so I'm glad that that

61

:

bit could be over with now.

62

:

'cause

63

:

Beth: My traction to you was waning

just a little as I was going.

64

:

Oh,

65

:

Laura: amazing.

66

:

Xhafer: yeah.

67

:

Humor everyone.

68

:

Clearly humor.

69

:

It's a very funny podcast.

70

:

Beth: yes, please.

71

:

Mansplain humor to the people.

72

:

Xhafer: I,

73

:

Laura: That's every podcast.

74

:

Stop.

75

:

Stop.

76

:

We'll be just like everyone else.

77

:

Beth: Oh, great.

78

:

Xhafer: so we're here today to

talk about Battlestar Galactica,

79

:

season two, episode 20.

80

:

Lay down your burdens part two.

81

:

is a biggie.

82

:

Laura: Yeah.

83

:

Xhafer: This is, this is the episode

where everything changes for this show.

84

:

Laura: You don't say, huh?

85

:

Xhafer: Like, we can't,

86

:

like, uh, obviously I'm not gonna get

into any spoilers here but when we

87

:

talk about a TV show doing a time jump,

88

:

Laura: Uhhuh.

89

:

Xhafer: this was one of the first, like

in this kind of like in this manner where

90

:

it wasn't just like time passed as normal.

91

:

There are obviously shows that had

done it before Alias, which we're

92

:

actually covering over on LTO right now.

93

:

Is famous for having a time jump as well.

94

:

I don't know when it is.

95

:

I just know that there is one and

I can't guess that as a prediction,

96

:

as recovering alias because of it.

97

:

And that also means, now that I've said

it on this pod, Ben and Vic can't either.

98

:

So,

99

:

Laura: you ruined

100

:

Xhafer: got them.

101

:

Beth: eh.

102

:

Xhafer: You know what, if either

of them make that prediction, we

103

:

we're gonna record an episode in

between this one recording and airing

104

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

105

:

You'll let

106

:

Xhafer: if I'll let it stand.

107

:

But I'm gonna laugh and say you should

listen to who are you this week.

108

:

So this is your pass if

that happens to happen.

109

:

Beth: Fun fact about Alias.

110

:

I watched that as a very small child.

111

:

Well, my dad watched it and I just

kind of peeked around the corner

112

:

'cause I wasn't old enough to

113

:

Laura: sure.

114

:

Yeah.

115

:

I was gonna say, it doesn't feel

like a very small child kind of show.

116

:

Yeah.

117

:

Beth: no.

118

:

My parents watched it.

119

:

I just peeked around the corner and

I thought Jennifer Garner's pink

120

:

wig was so cool that that's why I

dye my hair so much as an adult.

121

:

Like I'm sure that that had such

a huge impression on me as a

122

:

Laura: That's, that's your origin story.

123

:

Yeah.

124

:

Beth: Yes.

125

:

Jennifer Garner in a pink wig.

126

:

Xhafer: Okay.

127

:

Laura: Yeah.

128

:

This time jump.

129

:

I, I have a feeling we're not gonna

have a year of hell style situation

130

:

where we can like, erase that in

season three and just go back,

131

:

Beth: No, but God,

don't you wish we could?

132

:

Xhafer: No, there is no,

there's no going back.

133

:

But that's the end of the episode.

134

:

We should probably start at

the beginning of the episode.

135

:

Beth: So here's the thing.

136

:

I know I was saying something,

but I kind of forgot what it was.

137

:

Laura: That

138

:

Beth: I was just, I was

dunking on Gaia Ballar.

139

:

'cause don't we open on him?

140

:

Just banging like clearly in the

throes of some sort of sexual situation

141

:

with two of his very young interns.

142

:

Laura: yet.

143

:

Xhafer: way later in the

144

:

Beth: Nevermind.

145

:

Laura: I mean, when we have kind

of like the second cold open.

146

:

Yes.

147

:

That is how it, it works.

148

:

Beth: yeah, yeah.

149

:

Okay.

150

:

Sorry, everybody.

151

:

Xhafer: Well, it's the first cold open.

152

:

'cause there is no cold open.

153

:

This episode we get

154

:

last

155

:

time on and then it

goes straight to theme.

156

:

Laura: like an inverted cold open.

157

:

We threw the cold open at the end.

158

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

159

:

Beth: Inverse.

160

:

Laura: Yes.

161

:

This is the first time

we've gone straight to

162

:

Xhafer: I think so.

163

:

Uh, So Survivor count 49,550.

164

:

This is down 29 from last episode.

165

:

Laura: Yeah, so we had the people that got

166

:

Xhafer: Mountain.

167

:

Laura: into the mountain.

168

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

169

:

Raptor six 1 2.

170

:

Beth: Yeah, that's right.

171

:

Laura: We had some people get blowed

up on Caprica, probably with them.

172

:

Those uh,

173

:

Xhafer: pre presumably some

people got blown up on Caprica.

174

:

Laura: Uhhuh.

175

:

Xhafer: We don't know how many,

we don't know how many are there.

176

:

I mean, if each Raptor is only a, a

pilot, a navigator, and two Marines,

177

:

then they've only got 10 Marines

with them for the five raptors

178

:

that make it out of the seven.

179

:

Laura: Hmm.

180

:

Beth: Why don't we put the body count

at, um, a bummer of an amount of people

181

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

182

:

Laura: Yeah.

183

:

Beth: lost.

184

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

185

:

We just don't know where some of these

bodies come from, especially given the

186

:

close timeframe of these episodes, and

we're never really given a chance to find

187

:

out where they come from due to the nature

of the last 20 minutes of this episode.

188

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

189

:

Beth: Hmm.

190

:

Xhafer: We do get another population

number much later that we will talk about.

191

:

Then

192

:

Laura: I think we do need to talk

about that one, 'cause I'm confused.

193

:

Xhafer: there's, it makes

more sense than it looks like.

194

:

Um,

195

:

Laura: Sure.

196

:

Xhafer: so we open on the cys,

assaulting the Capric survivors and the

197

:

rescue mission to retrieve them here.

198

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

199

:

Xhafer: They kind of make their

way out of the ambush a little bit.

200

:

They're starting to like maneuver and

try to escape, but they're kind of fucked

201

:

Laura: Yeah.

202

:

Xhafer: at this moment.

203

:

We uh, cut over to Callie, who's in

rough shape coddle minus 10 points.

204

:

Laura: Yeah.

205

:

Xhafer: makes a really shitty

joke here about you know, only a

206

:

woman would find a way to complain

with their mouth wired shut.

207

:

And the thing that makes it even

worse is, besides it just being a bad

208

:

sexist joke, is it could apply just

as easily by not being a sexist joke.

209

:

He could just have said like, leave

it to a lower deck to complain

210

:

with their jaw wired shut, done.

211

:

Laura: Or just like leave it to Callie.

212

:

Like maybe that's Callie's thing,

and she just complains a lot.

213

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

214

:

Like there's like a bunch of ways

you can make this work without

215

:

it being explicitly sexist

216

:

and I expect better

217

:

from

218

:

Beth: patients complain?

219

:

Ooh.

220

:

You know what I mean?

221

:

Like,

222

:

Laura: Hmm.

223

:

Xhafer: There's a bunch

of ways it could go.

224

:

Beth: I'm a wisened old boomer with

a cigarette dangling from my lips

225

:

while I sew somebody's jaw shut.

226

:

Xhafer: Nailed it.

227

:

Laura: Yeah.

228

:

Yeah, no.

229

:

I was like, okay, doc Coddle,

you lost them with them points.

230

:

You do have kind of a lot of points,

but you lost some of them today.

231

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

232

:

Laura: But Callie is like also

lost points with me because she's

233

:

doing the, with her jaw wired shut.

234

:

It's okay.

235

:

I forgive you.

236

:

You were in pain.

237

:

And I'm like, I don't know Callie.

238

:

I don't know about that.

239

:

Xhafer: We talked about this enough

last episode where, I don't know if

240

:

you noticed, if you, do you listen

to podcasts on Spotify at all?

241

:

All podcasts on Spotify now

have automated chapters.

242

:

Laura: oh, no.

243

:

Okay.

244

:

Xhafer: So, and not even anything that

we did and the chap, like, there's a

245

:

chapter named after our conversation.

246

:

this bit.

247

:

Laura: Oh, no.

248

:

Xhafer: That's just like God.

249

:

What is, what was it?

250

:

Let me see if I can unpacking the

controversial domestic violence.

251

:

Laura: Uh uh, well, that is a

really like tasteful little AI

252

:

description of the conversation.

253

:

Beth: Yeah.

254

:

Xhafer: But I mean, yeah,

it still doesn't feel great.

255

:

I, I, yeah, it's bad.

256

:

There's enough other stuff to talk about

this episode where if you want to hear

257

:

our thoughts, I'm sure they, they were

the exact same as they were last week.

258

:

Laura: Yeah.

259

:

There's nothing new here

260

:

Xhafer: Um, but Beth, you didn't

get a chance to offer any thought.

261

:

So if you wanna talk about how

fucking weird and creepy and

262

:

domestic violence this is have at.

263

:

Beth: Well, I think that we are seeing

the cycle of abuse pretty clearly

264

:

here, and it doesn't make me feel

comfortable and it doesn't make me

265

:

like the, like the Chief very much.

266

:

And Callie needs therapy

267

:

Laura: Yeah.

268

:

Beth: like,

269

:

Laura: Yeah.

270

:

I think that you could do a

whole show that would, it would

271

:

have to be a dark comedy, right?

272

:

Where it's like Battlestar

Galactica, but from the point of

273

:

view of like the ship's counselor,

274

:

Beth: Oh my God.

275

:

Yeah.

276

:

Holy shit.

277

:

Laura: they really need

a Deanna Troy like super

278

:

Beth: So

279

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

280

:

Beth: Like holy shit.

281

:

Laura: Especially they need Deanna Troy

because you know, she's got them Beta Z

282

:

woowoo powers that are very convenient

for the plot whenever we need them to be.

283

:

And she could see through people's

like lying to themselves and bullshit.

284

:

And that would be so helpful on this show.

285

:

'cause I think there's a lot of

lying to ourselves in bullshit.

286

:

Xhafer: Yeah,

287

:

Beth: there is.

288

:

But also I feel like it's important

to point out that Callie is, there's,

289

:

there's a power imbalance there,

290

:

Xhafer: Oh

291

:

yeah.

292

:

Oh yeah.

293

:

it's

294

:

our boss

295

:

Beth: she, you like,

what is she gonna say?

296

:

I don't forgive you, and

then get beat up again.

297

:

You know what I mean?

298

:

And she's like stuck on this ship

with him and like, that's, fuck yeah.

299

:

That's fucking terrifying.

300

:

Like,

301

:

Laura: Yeah, and Galactica needs

its people really bad, so it's not

302

:

like she can just be like, Hey, how

about a transfer to the Pegasus?

303

:

I mean, you know, Adama and

Lee would probably do that, I

304

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

305

:

Trade somebody over there.

306

:

Laura: but she feels the

loyalty to the Galactica, right?

307

:

Beth: right and then she'd be on

the Pegasus and we don't like them.

308

:

Laura: oh, yeah.

309

:

And

310

:

Beth: They're ickier.

311

:

Laura: guys,

312

:

Beth: They're even worse.

313

:

Laura: oh yeah.

314

:

Would she be any safer on the

Pegasus with the, the rapists?

315

:

Beth: Right.

316

:

Xhafer: The,

317

:

Laura: Uh,

318

:

Kelly's in a hard spot.

319

:

Kelly's in a hard spot, but.

320

:

Xhafer: We go over to Caprica yellow

where the fighting stops suddenly Sharon

321

:

tells them it's so that they can gas

them for prisoners and interrogate some

322

:

and take the others off to the farms.

323

:

The notion of which prompt star

bees to ask Sam for a suicide pack.

324

:

Fair enough?

325

:

Beth: mean, fair enough.

326

:

She got, you know, captured by the silence

at one time and it was pretty traumatic.

327

:

Like again, Deanna Troy just

throwing up the Troy signal.

328

:

I don't, what would that look like?

329

:

Would it just be like her big hair bump,

330

:

like the

331

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

332

:

Big curly hair bump.

333

:

I would love that.

334

:

Beth: That'd be so

335

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

336

:

In a little bat symbol coming

soon to our merch store.

337

:

Um,

338

:

Beth: Oh, so cute.

339

:

Well, she could be wearing

like a fabulous Afghan thing.

340

:

Laura: Uh, Deanna, Troy

needed more Afghans.

341

:

They should have allowed that.

342

:

less catsuit, more Afghan.

343

:

Beth: Yeah.

344

:

Laura: That's what I want for everyone.

345

:

Beth: Calf dance calf, Dan.

346

:

Laura: Oh,

347

:

Beth: Although everyone

needs a Afghan too.

348

:

'cause you can't tell me the

enterprise isn't a chili ship.

349

:

It's chili.

350

:

It's gotta be

351

:

Laura: Just the vibes.

352

:

Yeah.

353

:

Yeah.

354

:

Beth: and all that like tech.

355

:

It's gotta be cool

356

:

Laura: Oh yeah.

357

:

We have to be cooling our

computers at all times.

358

:

Yeah.

359

:

Beth: You wouldn't, you know,

know from the amount of times

360

:

Rikers nips are out, but

361

:

I think that ship's pretty.

362

:

Yeah.

363

:

Xhafer: it's a little chilly.

364

:

Beth: Nips out for enterprise.

365

:

You heard it here first.

366

:

Xhafer: Let's see here.

367

:

We go over to the election after this.

368

:

Laura: uhhuh.

369

:

Xhafer: It's not going well for Rosalyn

who refuses to compromise or lie

370

:

to win, but Tory has a backup plan.

371

:

Laura: Yeah.

372

:

She does this little rant about how

stupid and shortsighted people are,

373

:

Xhafer: Yikes.

374

:

Laura: that doesn't.

375

:

Cut close to home at all.

376

:

Does it?

377

:

She knows it's gonna be a disaster, but

she won't like just lie a little bit to

378

:

appease the people and keep her spot.

379

:

But we're gonna find out Tori

will do something much worse.

380

:

So I don't, I don't know,

Rosalyn, I don't love this either.

381

:

Beth: yeah.

382

:

Although see, like Tori's got that

chaotic good queen thing going on,

383

:

Xhafer: You know what this,

it feels like a lot to me.

384

:

Like Rosalyn might be part of,

say, a political party where they

385

:

look at their opponent and they go,

that's a disgusting, bumbling fool.

386

:

No one would ever possibly vote for him.

387

:

We don't need to campaign on anything.

388

:

So when the disgusting, bumbling

fool says something that makes people

389

:

at least remotely interested in

possibly voting, they just flock.

390

:

And then, you know, Rosalyn

just refuses to do anything.

391

:

To make themselves want to have a vote.

392

:

Laura: Listener, Beth's eyes.

393

:

First one was twitching and then it moved

to the other during that whole rant.

394

:

Very serious eye twitching.

395

:

Xhafer: Wouldn an absurd premise.

396

:

Laura: Totally absurd.

397

:

Beth: Yeah.

398

:

Laura: Definitely wouldn't run

into that idea 20 years later.

399

:

Beth: Yeah, I mean, I'm super glad

we're not experiencing that right now.

400

:

Xhafer: yeah, it'd be terrible.

401

:

Uh, We cut back to Caprica yellow

where it's been 18 hours with no change

402

:

since the Cylons stopped attacking.

403

:

Laura: Yeah.

404

:

uh,

405

:

It's gotta be super nerve wracking too,

because like taking longer at something

406

:

than they usually do is a silent tactic.

407

:

Xhafer: yeah.

408

:

Yeah.

409

:

Laura: Like literally we've seen it.

410

:

Xhafer: Yeah, they've done,

we've seen them do this before.

411

:

We'll just wait another 10 minutes.

412

:

Fuck the Yumi.

413

:

Beth: Yeah.

414

:

Let's see if we can make their butts

unc unclenched just a little bit.

415

:

Then we'll attack like,

416

:

Laura: Yeah.

417

:

The second our sphincter detectors go

418

:

Beth: yeah.

419

:

The second we just, we just need another,

another two centimeters of dilation from

420

:

those sphincters, and then we're in.

421

:

Xhafer: now Cavel shows up here on

422

:

Caprica.

423

:

Right?

424

:

Laura: The bastard.

425

:

Xhafer: So good.

426

:

It's so good.

427

:

And he's just all like,

oh, we should pray.

428

:

Right?

429

:

Like, doing this stuff, being

his mocking asshole self.

430

:

But like Starbuck, like looks

at Sam, and Sam looks like he

431

:

also does not recognize Cavel.

432

:

This leads me to believe that Cavel

was not implanted with the resistance

433

:

and just snuck into where they were

hiding and then made his entrance right

434

:

there and they just assumed he was

with them and he just rolled with it.

435

:

Laura: Yeah.

436

:

Somehow this old guy just managed

to come on our huge firefight

437

:

Xhafer: yeah,

438

:

Laura: and make it through, you know?

439

:

I guess maybe he's kept up his cardio.

440

:

Xhafer: yeah.

441

:

Beth: I do love a campy entrance.

442

:

Gotta say

443

:

like

444

:

Laura: not only do we get campy entrance

though, we get like excellent cut because

445

:

he's throwing up his hands to praise,

praise the Lord for our deliverance.

446

:

And at the same time he is

praying with Rosalyn on Galactica.

447

:

Xhafer: Just to like make sure that

you didn't think that maybe for

448

:

some reason he was on one of those

raptors after chilling with Tyrell.

449

:

Laura: Oh yeah.

450

:

Mm-hmm.

451

:

Xhafer: They really have to drive

home that you know, that he's a

452

:

silent at this point, if only for

the comedy of two scenes from now,

453

:

Which is one of my favorite

scenes in the entire show.

454

:

Beth: I mean, I really like how he,

like it was last episode, right?

455

:

Part one where he's like, well, I go

to the si we silence, have a meeting

456

:

every month and you weren't there.

457

:

Um,

458

:

Laura: That's when Laura was like, ah.

459

:

He is definitely a silent.

460

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

461

:

Called this one.

462

:

Laura: I kind of want that

line to show up again.

463

:

Like I really want another silent to

do that line because it would, it would

464

:

give me the giggles at this point,

465

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

466

:

Beth: And then the end of the

show is just all of the sidelines

467

:

at the sideline meeting.

468

:

And there's like the coffee and the stale

469

:

Xhafer: They made a whole movie about it.

470

:

It's called the plan.

471

:

It it, they did it after they finished

the show where it shows the story

472

:

of it's, it's the silence

perspective of like the first, I

473

:

think it, is it the first season?

474

:

I forget where it ends.

475

:

Where it goes up to,

476

:

Laura: Okay.

477

:

That's fun.

478

:

And it's just like, okay, you

know, here's our keynote cylon,

479

:

to discuss the overall strategy.

480

:

And we've got the heads of marketing

and operations over here, and

481

:

they're gonna give speeches.

482

:

Beth: And they're still using PowerPoint

on Windows 10 or something like.

483

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

484

:

Fuck it.

485

:

They can use Dos Easy.

486

:

They don't need a fucking

graphic user interface.

487

:

Fuck that.

488

:

Command prompts all day.

489

:

Laura: They're just gonna jack

right in to the projector.

490

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

491

:

Beth: Yeah.

492

:

Xhafer: They are the USB drive.

493

:

Beth: finger right in there.

494

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

495

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

496

:

Xhafer: Rosalyn meets with Baltar here

to get him to try and set aside the

497

:

issue of settlement until after the

election, and he's like, fuck you.

498

:

I'm not giving you this election like that

499

:

Beth: he was such a

condescending little bitch

500

:

Xhafer: I look, I, I don't want to give

guys Baltar credit for anything, but

501

:

he is a thousand percent correct here

to the second roslyn's all like, let's

502

:

just set this one thing that you've

gained political traction on a side.

503

:

This is fucking shitty of Roslyn to

be like, it's all like, I've decided

504

:

I don't want to take a side, so I'm

gonna ask you to not take a side too.

505

:

Instead of just taking a fucking

side, Rosalyn, maybe if you ran on

506

:

a fucking platform every once in a

while, you'd win a fucking election.

507

:

Laura: I, I don't think

this is about Rosalyn

508

:

Xhafer: It never was.

509

:

Beth: This has nothing to do

with anything in real time.

510

:

What?

511

:

Laura: I was gonna say that.

512

:

This just reminds me of Rosalyn's letter.

513

:

I think this is just Rosalyn's letter.

514

:

One more time.

515

:

Delivered face to face, because like

before, she couldn't, she couldn't

516

:

lick him in the eyeballs and give

that letter because she was dying.

517

:

Like, and she was busy dying.

518

:

Xhafer: yeah,

519

:

Laura: But she's

520

:

Beth: lot of time.

521

:

Yeah.

522

:

Laura: trying to remind him like,

you could be a better human being.

523

:

Xhafer: yeah.

524

:

He's not interested in that.

525

:

Just like when she brings up

seeing him with a six before

526

:

the attack, he dodges and leaves

527

:

Beth: and I love how condescending he was.

528

:

Like, she was just like, Ooh, let's

meet and quiet or whatever, and he's

529

:

like, Ooh, this is such a quaint

defense mechanism or something.

530

:

Just like, fuck you.

531

:

I want to take that doctor's cigarette

and stab you in the dick with it.

532

:

You piece of shit.

533

:

Xhafer: How does he still have smokes?

534

:

Where

535

:

Laura: they're not cigars anymore.

536

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

537

:

Laura: He's got cigarettes now.

538

:

I think he had cigars before, right?

539

:

I,

540

:

Xhafer: Do you think they just like

cut up the cigars to make cigarettes?

541

:

I,

542

:

Laura: I mean, maybe right.

543

:

Beth: or do we think that they've

created some sort of like.

544

:

Underground tobacco growing situation.

545

:

Somewhere in like a cabin.

546

:

Xhafer: you need to cure that shit.

547

:

I mean, it's space, so maybe you

548

:

just do

549

:

Beth: it on the vents or whatever.

550

:

Man, it's fine.

551

:

Xhafer: but

552

:

Laura: I mean, what about synthetic?

553

:

Like are they gonna take some like

industrial waste and be like, oh,

554

:

guess what, we can kind of smoke this.

555

:

Xhafer: that

556

:

sounds like the most humanity thing ever.

557

:

Laura: I mean, gestures broadly.

558

:

Beth: It's true.

559

:

I've just listened to a

podcast all about Creto.

560

:

Laura: I was kind of

thinking of that actually.

561

:

Beth: Yeah, it's terrifying.

562

:

It starts off as a leaf and then

people like brew it into a drink.

563

:

So there you go.

564

:

Xhafer: the ties argue about

settlement as Starbuck's rescue

565

:

Mission returns with survivors.

566

:

when the DAMA meets Sam here and he's,

he is like, oh yeah, the caprica bucks.

567

:

I was always a Picon Panthers fan.

568

:

Laura: It's very cute,

569

:

Xhafer: That's fucking weird.

570

:

He grew up on Caprica.

571

:

Laura: I mean,

572

:

Xhafer: This is like Ben

being a fucking Cowboys fan.

573

:

It's fucking weird.

574

:

Laura: sometimes you pick a team

575

:

' Beth: cause the Cowboys suck, Ben,

576

:

Xhafer: If they didn't have the

worst owner in the NFL, I wouldn't

577

:

give 'em as much shit about it, but

578

:

they do.

579

:

Beth: Pick a better team.

580

:

Pick literally any other team.

581

:

Laura: So at this point, Laura

turns to Erin and she says,

582

:

oh no, they're already back.

583

:

Which means escape from

Caprica is not the drama.

584

:

Xhafer: No.

585

:

Laura: else is the drama.

586

:

Xhafer: Oh, there's so

587

:

Laura: Oh no,

588

:

Beth: a hella drama dude.

589

:

Laura: this show is do does this to me.

590

:

Every few episodes.

591

:

It's like, Hey, this thing

that you think we're setting

592

:

up is gonna be the big drama.

593

:

It's over

594

:

Xhafer: We

595

:

finished that 15 minutes in.

596

:

Beth: really love how, how Starbuck,

you know, introduced this guy that

597

:

she likes to her father basically.

598

:

That was very cute.

599

:

'cause like they just came

back from a war essentially.

600

:

And the first order of business is,

dad, I'd like you to meet my boyfriend.

601

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

602

:

Beth: Do you like him?

603

:

Like

604

:

Xhafer: He's a professional sports ball

605

:

Beth: Yeah, the kernels of humanity

are what in betwixt, all the other shit

606

:

really is what makes this show so good.

607

:

Laura: Yes.

608

:

And you know that like she's not talked

to Adama directly about Sam Anders.

609

:

I, I believe in my heart, like

610

:

Beth: Yeah.

611

:

Laura: maybe Adama has heard from Lee

a little bit about Sam Anders, but

612

:

Star Be's, I believe she left all that

out when she talked to Adama about how

613

:

badly she needs to rescue her boyfriend.

614

:

She just needs to rescue the humans.

615

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

616

:

Beth: definitely didn't

say, my man's is down there.

617

:

Let's go get 'em.

618

:

You know?

619

:

Laura: right.

620

:

She doesn't wanna jeopardize

her credibility with Daddy

621

:

in that that way, but

622

:

Xhafer: Yeah,

623

:

Laura: yeah, no, I get it.

624

:

Xhafer: Cavel gets off this raptor

625

:

Laura: yeah.

626

:

Xhafer: and Tyrell's all like the

fuck, well the frack and charges

627

:

him just IDs him immediately and

he's just all like, take me to

628

:

your leader, which was hilarious.

629

:

Beth: Yeah, that was pretty good.

630

:

Xhafer: And then Adama.

631

:

Laura: how weird is this for everyone

else in that room when Tyrell, the

632

:

man who just beat the shit out of

Cali for no reason, charges at a

633

:

guy, the, you don't really, no.

634

:

Like there goes Chief Tyrell

beating the shit outta people again.

635

:

Like, Aw, that's our Tyrell.

636

:

Beth: And that's how we know there's no

anger management aboard any of the ships.

637

:

Laura: I mean, he's, he's

right, like Brother Cylon is

638

:

like bad, bad business, right?

639

:

Beth: for sure.

640

:

But the, like

641

:

everybody

642

:

Laura: split second.

643

:

Beth: Yeah.

644

:

Everybody's sitting there like, brother,

will you spare a crumb of context?

645

:

You know?

646

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

647

:

This is, this is so fucking great here.

648

:

And they take him to the BRI and

also Sharon because of course she

649

:

fucking knew Caval was a silent.

650

:

It's like, how could she not know?

651

:

Laura: Yeah.

652

:

Beth: Yeah.

653

:

He doesn't have a butthole to clench,

you know, so she's all like, I

654

:

sense your lack of butthole, dude.

655

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

656

:

Xhafer: is pretty upset about

her not saying anything.

657

:

Laura: Yeah.

658

:

WTF mate.

659

:

Xhafer: I, I kind of under, I

understand where she's coming from

660

:

for sure, because she's all like,

fuck you, they killed my baby.

661

:

They don't deserve my

662

:

trust.

663

:

Laura: Yeah.

664

:

Yep.

665

:

Xhafer: also you're not acting

in your own self-interest and

666

:

I mean, it's election season.

667

:

If there was a time to act in your own

self-interest and be aware of what that

668

:

was, you would think it would be now.

669

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

670

:

Mm-hmm.

671

:

Beth: I mean, I think that we are, we're

going on pure rage alone with she, she's

672

:

not thinking about any of that shit.

673

:

She's just mad and she

wants revenge and that's it.

674

:

Laura: Yeah, she's, she's

just here to fuck shit up now.

675

:

But that whole, yeah.

676

:

Okay.

677

:

I guess maybe baby overrides that,

but I, I still maintain that.

678

:

I think Sharon should be smarter than

this and realize that like, I don't know

679

:

where my baby is, but my baby's not dead.

680

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

681

:

I mean, she said that too, like she's

alluded to knowing instinctually

682

:

but it's just like she's pissed.

683

:

She deserves to be pissed

684

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

685

:

Xhafer: and I'm not gonna

try and say otherwise,

686

:

but there's being upset and then there is

actively hurting yourself by being angry

687

:

And,

688

:

Laura: and and the one you kept

saying, you cared about so much.

689

:

I love you, Hilo.

690

:

We are making a baby together, Hilo,

we are together, blah, blah, blah.

691

:

They, they could like kill Hilo over this.

692

:

They could

693

:

Xhafer: Yeah,

694

:

Laura: like,

695

:

you know what?

696

:

Beth: Yeah.

697

:

Laura: Or put him in his

own Bri, or something

698

:

Xhafer: And even more than that, like

she leaves the silences because she

699

:

doesn't trust them to not kill Hilo.

700

:

That's the whole reason why she

leaves with him in the first

701

:

place when she's pregnant.

702

:

And so to like hang out in the

raptor with him and Cavel and to

703

:

not say shit is also fucking weird.

704

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

705

:

Beth: But she's the one she got

raped in a few episodes ago.

706

:

Yes.

707

:

Laura: No,

708

:

Beth: No, that was the copy of her.

709

:

Xhafer: No, that was her.

710

:

Beth: That

711

:

Laura: but she

712

:

Xhafer: That was Sharon, not Boomer.

713

:

Well, I mean whether or

714

:

it was attempted at the very least.

715

:

And it's a show show on sci-fi.

716

:

So whether or not it was a full,

like, I'm not here to quantify that.

717

:

Beth: Right.

718

:

But either way, this very traumatic

thing happened at the hands.

719

:

Of people she had trusted,

essentially a ship that she had

720

:

seen as safe up until this point.

721

:

Yes, she did shoot someone like, but so

she's just kind of like, there's a bit

722

:

of a trauma Jenga situation happening?

723

:

I think so.

724

:

Like, and then the tower topples

when they take her baby and then

725

:

she's just like, the dam has burst,

I think is maybe what's happening

726

:

Xhafer: I think if anything, it's

a comment that I've just been very

727

:

fortunate to not ever been in a situation

where anger overtakes my ability to

728

:

be rational for my own self-interest.

729

:

That's probably more commentary

on the life that I've lived than

730

:

anything else, and, and, and,

and, the lack of hardships in it.

731

:

Beth: you're, you are a very chill human

732

:

Xhafer: I am, I mean.

733

:

It's something that I've worked at.

734

:

I was not always a very chill human.

735

:

I was a very hotheaded

teenager for a long time, so

736

:

Beth: Hmm.

737

:

Laura: but it, it, to your point, Jair, it

is easier to be a chill human when you're

738

:

like, amygdala is not aroused all the time

739

:

by your surroundings.

740

:

Xhafer: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

741

:

Like having a a solidified

brain helps a ton

742

:

Laura: yeah.

743

:

Xhafer: compared to when

I was an actual child.

744

:

Yeah.

745

:

So I guess, um, anyways

Karen, Sam are getting drunk.

746

:

Yeah.

747

:

Oh, oh god.

748

:

Fuck this scene.

749

:

Beth: this is a lot.

750

:

This is a

751

:

Xhafer: I, I fucking hated this.

752

:

Lee tries to come over and be

like, Hey, glad you made it home.

753

:

Let's meet Sam.

754

:

Right.

755

:

And

756

:

Laura: Yeah.

757

:

Xhafer: Kara is a bad friend here.

758

:

Laura: Very, very bad friend.

759

:

Yep.

760

:

Beth: She's

761

:

Laura: person you've been excited

to introduce to everybody, you just

762

:

want to show off in front of Lee

763

:

now and make him feel bad

about himself, I guess.

764

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

765

:

Beth: Yeah, that was, it

was very uncomfortable.

766

:

Xhafer: If it had just been like

drunk fooling around, that probably

767

:

would've been one thing, but the

fact that she's just all like, he's

768

:

mine and you're not still fracking.

769

:

D are you?

770

:

Like

771

:

Laura: That was especially uncalled

772

:

Xhafer: It's real weird.

773

:

It's real rough.

774

:

It's real tinged with a level

of jealousy that makes you

775

:

question everyone's feelings.

776

:

Actually in the room is bad,

777

:

Laura: Deanna Troy paging Deanna Troy.

778

:

Xhafer: right?

779

:

Light the Troy signal.

780

:

Beth: bump it in calf tan.

781

:

Let's go like.

782

:

And a Afghan, fuck it.

783

:

We got Afghan for you.

784

:

You want a cozy blanket?

785

:

No problem.

786

:

Xhafer: What follows?

787

:

This is For My Money.

788

:

The best scene in Battlestar Galactica.

789

:

Laura: it is

790

:

Xhafer: Full stop.

791

:

I fucking love this scene.

792

:

They've got priest cavel, or

they've got not priest cavel.

793

:

They've got uh, ship Cavel

in the cell priest cave's.

794

:

Like, I'm not a silent, what are you?

795

:

And then he gets in the brick

and he is like, oh, well then,

796

:

and just walks into the brick.

797

:

It's so

798

:

good.

799

:

Dean Stockwell, just,

800

:

chewing the scenery, just having a blast.

801

:

Beth: quality.

802

:

Laura: it's up there with that, that

gif that we keep using in the discord of

803

:

like Ty and Adama having a conversation

and then looking directly at the camera.

804

:

I mean, I, I love that

gif every time I see it.

805

:

Just hit me with it, y'all.

806

:

It's so good.

807

:

And uh, this scene is also very delicious.

808

:

Xhafer: I, this scene has been

animated gift in Spoiler Town

809

:

before, so I'm sure it, this is its

opportunity to move into current with

810

:

Pod Chat, whoever gets to it first.

811

:

Congratulations.

812

:

Beth: Yeah.

813

:

Flood us with that dopamine.

814

:

Xhafer: but more than just that because

I mean, that's fun, but also this

815

:

scene with Dean Stockwell talking to

our, you know, Rosalyn Adama and Ty.

816

:

Also just makes up so much of

the crux of the cylon mythos.

817

:

Like there is more world building for

the Cylons in this three minutes than we

818

:

got in the episode set on Caprica during

the occupation a couple episodes ago.

819

:

Laura: Sure.

820

:

Yeah.

821

:

Beth: Yeah.

822

:

Xhafer: So I'm here for all this.

823

:

I love the shit out of this.

824

:

Caval is talking about the changes

in silent society that Caprica six

825

:

and Boomer have made, which we saw

the start of a couple episodes ago.

826

:

They are departing the colonies

and they're not going to hunt

827

:

down the fleet any longer.

828

:

Laura: Yeah, I was very suspicious.

829

:

Like he says, yeah, we've got two

leaders who convinced us we're wrong, our

830

:

whole hive mind or whatever, and silos

are gonna go pursue our own destiny.

831

:

That's so vague.

832

:

Xhafer: it, it's super

833

:

Laura: anything.

834

:

Xhafer: and Rosaly and Adama are super

combative about it, which I mean,

835

:

they have every right to be suspicious

'cause cylon bullshit, but also like

836

:

you're not doing a lot to inspire that

humanity's gonna leave you guys alone.

837

:

Laura: Yeah,

838

:

Xhafer: So

839

:

that's, that's a big part of it.

840

:

Laura: I mean, there's not

much humanity left, so.

841

:

I mean,

842

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

843

:

Laura: reasonably, maybe we

come back in a few centuries

844

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

845

:

But I

846

:

Laura: like

847

:

Beth: It's

848

:

Xhafer: that's a normal

849

:

scale of time for

850

:

Beth: up anymore because

there's only like 10 of you.

851

:

So now you have to, you have to

replace your population so we can

852

:

come back and blow you up more.

853

:

Laura: mm-hmm.

854

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

855

:

Laura: Yeah.

856

:

Nothing about this is

gonna be that simple.

857

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

858

:

Rosalyn orders the Cavel Airlock

because of course she does.

859

:

Laura: Yeah, I was not

totally clear on this.

860

:

And also I wanna throw in that the

brothers Cylons don't believe ins God.

861

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

862

:

Laura: They mentioned that.

863

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

864

:

Caval is an atheist, so I

didn't bring it up last episode.

865

:

I talked about it in Spoiler Town.

866

:

But when Caval is talking to Tyrell,

he refers to the God lords of cobal as

867

:

your Gods never his gods or the gods.

868

:

It's always your gods, is how he is.

869

:

How he phrases that.

870

:

So that was your like.

871

:

Actual little trick to

know that he was a cylon.

872

:

But I wanted to, I wanted this

scene to be in full rather than just

873

:

confirm your suspicions last episode.

874

:

Laura: Yeah.

875

:

I, I, love how I missed the

reference to the Gods Your Gods

876

:

completely and seized upon the joke.

877

:

Xhafer: yeah, you were correct.

878

:

Either way.

879

:

Um, Cavel is, and we'll, we will

learn more about this as we encounter

880

:

the character more over time.

881

:

Cavel is an atheist.

882

:

Laura: Interesting.

883

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

884

:

His model just doesn't

believe in any of the gods

885

:

Beth: I

886

:

do love Rosalyn's Badass Line here though,

when she like goes to throw them out

887

:

of an airlock, you know, they're like,

oh, we don't believe in Sightline, God.

888

:

And she's just like, well, let's find out

889

:

Laura: Yeah.

890

:

Beth: like slow, heavy

metal music plays like

891

:

Laura: Yeah,

892

:

yeah.

893

:

No, I, I was unclear.

894

:

Did they actually get airlock?

895

:

Xhafer: I mean, there's no

reason to think that they don't.

896

:

Laura: Yeah.

897

:

I mean, Adama doesn't take orders from

Rosalyn necessarily on this thing.

898

:

He would need to agree.

899

:

Xhafer: he's got a silent prisoner.

900

:

He might not airlock both of 'em.

901

:

Given how the rest of this episode

goes, I would say it's inconsequential

902

:

Laura: Yeah, well, I, I did wonder

'cause I thought like if they didn't

903

:

get airlock, 'cause we don't see it,

and it sort of almost was like, played

904

:

as, oh, there goes Roslyn again.

905

:

Xhafer: ear locking them.

906

:

silence.

907

:

Laura: But not actually, nobody actually

like, made a move that we saw to, to do

908

:

it.

909

:

I was like, did they just take

the caves down to New Caprica?

910

:

And for that matter,

we're the hell's Sharon?

911

:

Xhafer: Well, Sharon's

back in her silent cell.

912

:

Laura: Well, but I mean, when

we get to new Caprica, but

913

:

Xhafer: oh.

914

:

oh.

915

:

You'll find out.

916

:

Laura: Okay.

917

:

Beth: oh.

918

:

Xhafer: You, you, that's you won't

find out for a couple weeks because

919

:

we're gonna watch the episodes.

920

:

And I don't think, I don't remember

who is and isn't in the episodes.

921

:

I know the episodes don't have a lot

of the normal main cast characters that

922

:

they were explicitly shot with extras who

could do Line good or a couple of the more

923

:

premier actors that they happened to have,

that like weren't in episodes really.

924

:

So, I mean, we'll, we'll get

to that when we get to it.

925

:

Um, I think uh, Doral is the main,

like silo we see in those compared to

926

:

like a six or a Sharon or something.

927

:

Laura: yeah, yeah.

928

:

I was thinking about it in the last

couple days and I was like, man, it

929

:

seems like a bad idea to take any

silent down there, even Sharon, but,

930

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

931

:

Yeah.

932

:

Beth: though maybe especially Sharon.

933

:

Laura: or maybe especially Sharon.

934

:

Yeah.

935

:

Don't know.

936

:

But we'll put a pin in

it 'cause it's election

937

:

Xhafer: it's election day.

938

:

I can

939

:

already tell this is gonna be

a long ass episode from us.

940

:

Laura: That's fine.

941

:

Beth: It's 'Cause there's hella

942

:

Xhafer: there's hella, and last

episode was lots of buildup and

943

:

this episode is hella so, election

day we get a couple snapshots here.

944

:

The military and civilians

are handling the logistics.

945

:

We do get some vote counts.

946

:

BALTAR 21,569, Roslyn 17,754.

947

:

That's on the board or

that's on the conversation.

948

:

If we pause it on Roslyn's board,

we can see the votes needed to win

949

:

23,522, which means the electorate is

presumably assuming it's a 50 50 vote,

950

:

which is what it sounds like based off

of everything that's going on, 47,043.

951

:

Now we haven't had anyone die here,

and we've actually gained people

952

:

because the capric survivors.

953

:

So assuming with that and our about

20 capric survivors, give or take,

954

:

and then the, our count from 49,550

from early in the episode, our hold

955

:

population, 49,570, our electorate 47,043.

956

:

The difference is presumably children,

957

:

Laura: Well, it could be children

and the felons on the astral queen.

958

:

Right?

959

:

Do they have the right

to vote in this universe?

960

:

We don't know.

961

:

Xhafer: well, the difference is 2,527,

it would make more sense for that to

962

:

be the amount of felons who aren't

allowed to vote, and all of the children

963

:

can vote than it would for no, than

it would for no children to vote.

964

:

So in a normal population.

965

:

Let me, let me start with

the actual statistic here.

966

:

Well, this is, this is 5.1%

967

:

of the population is children here, right?

968

:

In in, in the Flotilla.

969

:

Yeah.

970

:

The 2000.

971

:

If that 2,527 is children,

what is a normal population's

972

:

percentage of people under 18?

973

:

Laura: it's gotta be more than that.

974

:

Xhafer: Shoot from the hip?

975

:

What are you thinking?

976

:

Throw out a guess.

977

:

Laura: At least a quarter.

978

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

979

:

Laura: That's my guess.

980

:

Beth, do you have one?

981

:

I'm not good at estimates.

982

:

Beth: I'm not either and

I'm also not good at math.

983

:

We know this is car me

from the bear level.

984

:

Bad at math over here.

985

:

Xhafer: It's true.

986

:

I call her Carmi all the

time when she messes up math.

987

:

Beth: it is.

988

:

Yes.

989

:

Laura: I mean, car's pretty cute.

990

:

Beth: see,

991

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

992

:

Beth: you.

993

:

Laura: I'm just saying.

994

:

Beth: Um, so is this what

guesting on all podcasts is?

995

:

Like I just get like flirted

with by all the hosts.

996

:

'cause that's pretty great.

997

:

Laura: I'm, I'm pretty

sure that's podcasts.

998

:

Yeah.

999

:

That checks out.

:

00:42:58,381 --> 00:42:58,621

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:42:58,621 --> 00:42:59,476

That feels like it.

:

00:43:00,286 --> 00:43:06,496

Beth: But okay, so like, we're thinking,

you know, so there's been trauma,

:

00:43:07,426 --> 00:43:10,816

trauma tends not to lead to sexy times.

:

00:43:11,461 --> 00:43:13,921

Xhafer: well, I mean, that'd

be, that'd be baby babies.

:

00:43:14,251 --> 00:43:15,661

And it's only been it,

:

00:43:16,006 --> 00:43:16,426

Beth: yeah.

:

00:43:16,531 --> 00:43:17,491

Xhafer: at 10

:

00:43:17,656 --> 00:43:18,256

Beth: age?

:

00:43:18,616 --> 00:43:20,266

Okay, so what is the age range?

:

00:43:20,356 --> 00:43:21,016

I'm like

:

00:43:21,316 --> 00:43:22,486

estimating here.

:

00:43:23,161 --> 00:43:25,051

Xhafer: general population, zero to 18,

:

00:43:26,581 --> 00:43:27,421

zero to 17.

:

00:43:28,498 --> 00:43:28,978

Beth: let's see.

:

00:43:28,978 --> 00:43:30,448

And they fled.

:

00:43:30,988 --> 00:43:32,713

Xhafer: It's been 10

months since the attacks.

:

00:43:32,968 --> 00:43:38,458

Beth: It's been 10 months, so probably

a few people were pregnant when

:

00:43:38,503 --> 00:43:39,463

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

:

00:43:39,703 --> 00:43:39,763

Yeah.

:

00:43:39,763 --> 00:43:40,873

Some pregnant survivors.

:

00:43:40,873 --> 00:43:42,433

Yeah, some baby babies.

:

00:43:42,718 --> 00:43:44,068

Beth: some baby babies.

:

00:43:44,975 --> 00:43:48,365

probably not like a huge child population,

:

00:43:48,455 --> 00:43:50,615

Xhafer: Yeah, well, it's 5.1

:

00:43:50,795 --> 00:43:53,465

is the presumed child

population of the fleet.

:

00:43:54,065 --> 00:43:57,395

A normal population is 22%.

:

00:43:58,580 --> 00:44:00,605

Laura: Hey, I wasn't too far

:

00:44:00,695 --> 00:44:01,955

Beth: you were, you were on

:

00:44:02,105 --> 00:44:06,725

Xhafer: I mean, if most people live to

like 80 something under 20, that's, you

:

00:44:06,725 --> 00:44:09,215

know, statistically that would make sense.

:

00:44:09,365 --> 00:44:12,515

That's of course not how

ages or populations work.

:

00:44:12,515 --> 00:44:15,395

There should be much more young

people than old people because

:

00:44:15,395 --> 00:44:16,985

not everyone makes it to be old.

:

00:44:17,315 --> 00:44:22,235

And also there are more people

making babies than there are babies.

:

00:44:22,685 --> 00:44:24,905

So that age, that whole factors in.

:

00:44:25,085 --> 00:44:27,030

But you know, 22% sure,

:

00:44:27,065 --> 00:44:27,335

Beth: okay.

:

00:44:28,415 --> 00:44:31,535

Probably that's not gonna be

true in a few years though,

:

00:44:31,925 --> 00:44:34,415

Xhafer: well, this is catastrophic.

:

00:44:35,225 --> 00:44:40,955

Like to to be, this is terrible

fucking news for the fleet.

:

00:44:41,405 --> 00:44:43,025

Like, besides just not having.

:

00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:47,840

Like young, young children

like babies, this means that

:

00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:52,760

there's 2,500 at most teenagers.

:

00:44:53,720 --> 00:44:58,520

So as you start to age up, there's

going to be an entire, like assuming

:

00:44:58,580 --> 00:45:02,780

everyone stops and starts having

babies tomorrow on new Caprica, right?

:

00:45:03,470 --> 00:45:06,050

They land, everyone

starts popping out babies.

:

00:45:06,050 --> 00:45:12,530

Just immediately, you're still

going to have this 18 year gap with

:

00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:16,100

almost no workers, no population.

:

00:45:16,430 --> 00:45:21,890

Your ab, your ability to have babies

is going to drop significantly for

:

00:45:21,890 --> 00:45:25,640

a generation because of this, which

is gonna be a ripple effect felt

:

00:45:25,670 --> 00:45:30,050

for hundreds of years as people

have at kids at different ages.

:

00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:37,070

Like the long term economic

effects of this are mind boggling.

:

00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:43,190

Laura: And this is why it is absolutely

bonkers to me that Rosalyn has not

:

00:45:43,190 --> 00:45:47,300

done the math and does not know these

statistics like the back of her hand

:

00:45:47,660 --> 00:45:51,410

in that one episode where she goes

to Baltar and says, what's the math

:

00:45:52,220 --> 00:45:54,770

like, you should, this should

already have been done.

:

00:45:56,390 --> 00:45:57,530

Did, period.

:

00:45:57,605 --> 00:45:58,745

Xhafer: it's so bad,

:

00:45:59,255 --> 00:46:04,205

and this is assuming like the average age

of a survivor is like 20 to 40 hopefully,

:

00:46:05,105 --> 00:46:10,415

and not 40 to 60, because those

people are aging out of having kids.

:

00:46:10,535 --> 00:46:16,385

So the population, given this age

discrepancy specifically, might already

:

00:46:16,385 --> 00:46:18,785

not be viable to survive for humanity.

:

00:46:19,693 --> 00:46:22,993

Laura: The head cannon, I'm,

I'm having to get there.

:

00:46:23,023 --> 00:46:26,893

And it's not a lot of head cannon, it's

just that like, you know, okay, say maybe

:

00:46:26,893 --> 00:46:35,603

our society did have 22% children on all

our, you know, preexisting before massacre

:

00:46:35,813 --> 00:46:37,793

planets and colonies and ships and stuff.

:

00:46:38,093 --> 00:46:44,333

But like, what are the odds that that

proportion of children would be traveling?

:

00:46:44,333 --> 00:46:48,023

'cause that's what the fleet is, it was

ships that happened to be traveling.

:

00:46:48,428 --> 00:46:48,878

Xhafer: oh, yeah.

:

00:46:48,878 --> 00:46:51,878

I mean, it'd be kids on vacation,

:

00:46:52,343 --> 00:46:52,853

Laura: yeah,

:

00:46:53,633 --> 00:46:53,963

yeah.

:

00:46:53,963 --> 00:46:55,343

Maybe you've got a field trip.

:

00:46:55,553 --> 00:46:55,853

Yeah.

:

00:46:56,438 --> 00:46:57,398

Xhafer: Yeah, exactly.

:

00:46:58,178 --> 00:46:58,388

Yeah.

:

00:46:58,493 --> 00:46:58,673

Beth: the,

:

00:46:58,673 --> 00:47:03,773

earth blowed up and all I got was

the stupid t-shirt sort of situation.

:

00:47:03,788 --> 00:47:09,461

Xhafer: number of like cross

planetary commuters that are children.

:

00:47:10,421 --> 00:47:12,731

I can only, I, I mean, it's probably

like if you were to pull the

:

00:47:12,731 --> 00:47:17,021

stats from air traffic on a school

day, it'd probably be similar.

:

00:47:18,161 --> 00:47:19,691

Laura: That's a very good point.

:

00:47:19,961 --> 00:47:20,381

Yeah.

:

00:47:21,064 --> 00:47:24,844

So I can, I can get there and

head cannon and also, yeah.

:

00:47:25,174 --> 00:47:25,714

Bleak.

:

00:47:26,404 --> 00:47:27,094

Xhafer: yeah, it's bad.

:

00:47:27,884 --> 00:47:33,744

So, uh, Tory makes a clandestine phone

call here to Ty Dee grabs a ballot

:

00:47:33,744 --> 00:47:37,584

box and route and rero it before

returning with his last ballot box.

:

00:47:38,934 --> 00:47:42,564

And this is like all

starting to go down here.

:

00:47:43,464 --> 00:47:45,714

The election is won by Rosalyn.

:

00:47:46,614 --> 00:47:49,794

We cut over to Zurich and

he's just all like, Nope.

:

00:47:49,914 --> 00:47:50,454

Rigged.

:

00:47:50,604 --> 00:47:51,474

Fucking know it.

:

00:47:52,374 --> 00:47:54,984

And Guy is all like,

nah, that ain't Rosalyn

:

00:47:56,009 --> 00:47:56,229

Laura: Man,

:

00:47:58,349 --> 00:47:58,629

I mean,

:

00:47:59,044 --> 00:47:59,854

Xhafer: broken clock.

:

00:48:00,664 --> 00:48:01,984

Even Mitch McConnell's been right.

:

00:48:03,064 --> 00:48:04,744

It's happened historically speaking.

:

00:48:05,169 --> 00:48:05,459

Laura: yeah.

:

00:48:06,754 --> 00:48:07,504

Xhafer: Not often,

:

00:48:07,669 --> 00:48:11,149

Beth: don't have to like

mention it ever though.

:

00:48:11,749 --> 00:48:14,239

We don't have to validate

that man on any level.

:

00:48:14,914 --> 00:48:17,854

Xhafer: I just like to bring it up

specifically when Gaas is right about

:

00:48:17,854 --> 00:48:18,394

something.

:

00:48:18,409 --> 00:48:19,279

Beth: no, no, no.

:

00:48:19,279 --> 00:48:19,339

no.

:

00:48:19,714 --> 00:48:20,164

Laura: Yeah.

:

00:48:20,614 --> 00:48:22,264

I mean, he, he is right in that.

:

00:48:22,264 --> 00:48:22,594

Yeah.

:

00:48:22,594 --> 00:48:25,954

Rosalyn never, she has no

idea this is happening.

:

00:48:25,954 --> 00:48:28,894

It's just happening in her

name and to benefit her, but,

:

00:48:29,074 --> 00:48:29,344

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

:

00:48:30,934 --> 00:48:33,844

Beth: She knows some weirdness

is afoot at the Circle K.

:

00:48:33,844 --> 00:48:36,394

She just doesn't know the what kind of

:

00:48:36,739 --> 00:48:39,049

Laura: And, and is

actively looking the other

:

00:48:39,049 --> 00:48:39,649

way.

:

00:48:40,009 --> 00:48:43,579

It's like, oh, I don't see

whatever's going on behind me.

:

00:48:43,579 --> 00:48:46,939

'cause that would be inconvenient for me.

:

00:48:47,524 --> 00:48:49,084

Beth: Yeah, exactly.

:

00:48:49,204 --> 00:48:53,059

She's got her headphones on while

she's, you know, surfing the web, like

:

00:48:53,564 --> 00:48:53,984

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

:

00:48:55,124 --> 00:48:55,724

Laura: It did.

:

00:48:55,784 --> 00:48:56,864

It doesn't last though.

:

00:48:57,494 --> 00:48:59,174

The, like, relief of.

:

00:48:59,924 --> 00:49:03,224

Thank God we didn't put

a bone head in charge.

:

00:49:03,614 --> 00:49:04,004

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:49:05,264 --> 00:49:09,434

How terrible things would

be if we had done that.

:

00:49:12,374 --> 00:49:13,274

Laura: Yep.

:

00:49:13,354 --> 00:49:17,284

GATA has a, a little typo problem.

:

00:49:18,359 --> 00:49:18,579

Xhafer: Yep.

:

00:49:19,234 --> 00:49:19,654

Beth: That's

:

00:49:19,744 --> 00:49:24,214

Laura: Zephyr got ballots that had

Gaia Baltar's name spelled wrong,

:

00:49:24,264 --> 00:49:31,674

and I really hope that it was spelled

Gaas Bitch Tar, like your name fer.

:

00:49:34,595 --> 00:49:40,685

We put our fun names in our squad cast

chat again and today Jafar Gais Bitch Tar.

:

00:49:40,935 --> 00:49:41,385

Xhafer: it's true.

:

00:49:42,035 --> 00:49:47,395

Laura: But these ballots are all correct

and they can't be, that can't be true.

:

00:49:48,095 --> 00:49:48,515

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

:

00:49:49,210 --> 00:49:54,850

Laura: Ty tries to tell gata that

I've got this, you can let it go.

:

00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:57,340

I'm going to take care of this.

:

00:49:57,455 --> 00:49:57,875

Beth: Mm-hmm.

:

00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:01,998

Laura: And uh, gada goes

and blows the whistle.

:

00:50:02,658 --> 00:50:09,948

And look, I know that I accuse every

one of being a silent, it's my thing.

:

00:50:10,668 --> 00:50:15,438

But there was an interesting

look on Gita's face as he

:

00:50:15,438 --> 00:50:17,088

goes and picks up the phone.

:

00:50:17,178 --> 00:50:20,748

That to me wasn't just like,

I'm being a little boy scout

:

00:50:21,648 --> 00:50:23,058

and I'm doing the right thing.

:

00:50:23,178 --> 00:50:23,418

It

:

00:50:23,478 --> 00:50:23,958

Beth: It was

:

00:50:24,888 --> 00:50:25,788

Laura: sinister.

:

00:50:25,788 --> 00:50:27,048

It was Mr.

:

00:50:27,048 --> 00:50:27,828

Burns.

:

00:50:28,633 --> 00:50:28,833

Beth: Accident.

:

00:50:29,223 --> 00:50:29,713

Exactly.

:

00:50:29,928 --> 00:50:32,178

Like that's exactly what

happened in my, yeah.

:

00:50:32,208 --> 00:50:36,588

'cause like I haven't seen up to

this point in Battlestar Galactica.

:

00:50:36,588 --> 00:50:41,328

So I'm in the Laura boat and I like

the everyone's asylum line strategy.

:

00:50:41,763 --> 00:50:43,953

Laura: Everyone's a silent

until proven innocent.

:

00:50:44,353 --> 00:50:44,573

Beth: Yo.

:

00:50:45,138 --> 00:50:51,198

Like we already know there are lot

more of them than there are of people.

:

00:50:51,198 --> 00:50:52,128

So like

:

00:50:53,592 --> 00:50:57,997

mathematically speaking,

probably the right way to go.

:

00:50:59,667 --> 00:51:03,717

Laura: I just did not

feel good about this.

:

00:51:03,717 --> 00:51:07,767

And I don't know, maybe it's just

gay's got some kind of beef with Ty.

:

00:51:07,767 --> 00:51:11,487

We all know that Ty was

showing his ass a lot, right?

:

00:51:12,237 --> 00:51:14,685

Uh, Being a drunk all over the place.

:

00:51:14,715 --> 00:51:15,645

It's been a minute.

:

00:51:15,645 --> 00:51:18,195

He hasn't been too bad

lately, as far as we

:

00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:18,600

Beth: Yeah.

:

00:51:18,930 --> 00:51:22,500

Now that Adam's back in

charge and he's, yeah.

:

00:51:23,025 --> 00:51:26,805

Laura: But maybe he like so

pissed off Gada that this is

:

00:51:26,805 --> 00:51:28,485

a look of like fucking finely.

:

00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:34,440

Beth: or maybe Gada is like one

of those like early 20 something

:

00:51:34,650 --> 00:51:42,898

Manosphere guys who's like really

buying into the guy Ballar experience.

:

00:51:44,653 --> 00:51:47,083

Laura: He's really huffing

guy, Baltar's farts.

:

00:51:47,668 --> 00:51:48,178

Beth: Yeah.

:

00:51:48,178 --> 00:51:50,308

He's really into that whole, you know.

:

00:51:50,563 --> 00:51:54,403

Laura: I don't get that vibe from

Gada, but I don't know, he winds up

:

00:51:54,433 --> 00:51:55,873

in an interesting position here in a

:

00:51:55,873 --> 00:51:56,143

bit.

:

00:51:56,143 --> 00:51:56,743

So

:

00:51:56,788 --> 00:51:58,378

Beth: That's why I'm thinking,

:

00:51:58,964 --> 00:52:02,924

Laura: yeah, but I'd never gotten

that vibe of, I guess he did be

:

00:52:02,924 --> 00:52:06,314

like, Hey, we could use Gaia's

computer once or something, and

:

00:52:06,899 --> 00:52:08,879

Beth: yeah, I guess you right.

:

00:52:09,599 --> 00:52:09,959

I don't know.

:

00:52:10,244 --> 00:52:10,634

Laura: Hmm.

:

00:52:10,979 --> 00:52:13,619

Xhafer: you'll see more with Gada soon.

:

00:52:14,159 --> 00:52:17,609

He's got a seemingly prominent

job after the time jump.

:

00:52:17,609 --> 00:52:19,019

It looked like there didn't it,

:

00:52:19,619 --> 00:52:20,609

Beth: It really did.

:

00:52:21,434 --> 00:52:23,414

Laura: but we gotta get there somehow.

:

00:52:23,474 --> 00:52:24,164

Um,

:

00:52:24,704 --> 00:52:25,574

so We go

:

00:52:25,649 --> 00:52:26,459

Beth: gotta talk about it.

:

00:52:26,459 --> 00:52:27,234

I'm so excited.

:

00:52:27,504 --> 00:52:34,109

Laura: Okay, so we go to Adama,

breaking the news to Rosalyn.

:

00:52:35,669 --> 00:52:35,819

Xhafer: Yep.

:

00:52:36,959 --> 00:52:40,199

She wants to, you know,

she admits the admiral.

:

00:52:40,199 --> 00:52:43,829

She knew all along and she didn't

have the exact details, but she

:

00:52:43,829 --> 00:52:45,239

knew Tori was up to something.

:

00:52:46,144 --> 00:52:46,564

Laura: Mm-hmm.

:

00:52:47,069 --> 00:52:50,699

Xhafer: And that she recalls when

she was dying, Baltar and Caprica

:

00:52:50,699 --> 00:52:54,869

six hanging out and he's just like,

wait to bury the lead on that.

:

00:52:54,869 --> 00:52:55,349

Fuck.

:

00:52:55,349 --> 00:52:59,759

How long have you known s fucking

He was a slon conspirator.

:

00:53:00,074 --> 00:53:00,364

Beth: Yeah.

:

00:53:00,779 --> 00:53:01,379

Xhafer: Fuck.

:

00:53:01,529 --> 00:53:03,929

You should have told me

that the minute you knew.

:

00:53:04,379 --> 00:53:05,279

That's important.

:

00:53:05,279 --> 00:53:08,729

Shit, dude has nukes with an S.

:

00:53:09,599 --> 00:53:10,379

Beth: Yeah.

:

00:53:10,514 --> 00:53:11,624

Laura: I can see holding.

:

00:53:11,624 --> 00:53:14,564

I can see sitting on that one

though, because it's like you go to

:

00:53:14,564 --> 00:53:19,904

Adama and you say, well, you know,

during my delusions as I was dying,

:

00:53:19,934 --> 00:53:23,024

I remembered this thing about Gaas.

:

00:53:23,024 --> 00:53:23,969

And it's like, hmm.

:

00:53:25,319 --> 00:53:25,889

Beth: Yeah.

:

00:53:26,189 --> 00:53:28,289

Xhafer: You might get

his nuke back though,

:

00:53:28,859 --> 00:53:29,039

Beth: Yeah,

:

00:53:29,039 --> 00:53:29,609

but like

:

00:53:29,774 --> 00:53:30,554

Laura: yeah.

:

00:53:30,614 --> 00:53:31,334

Good point.

:

00:53:32,069 --> 00:53:38,369

Beth: I mean, but she's probably sitting

there going, is Gaas a a asylum fucker

:

00:53:38,429 --> 00:53:41,039

or were my neurons all firing at once?

:

00:53:41,039 --> 00:53:43,409

'cause I was dying, you know, like,

:

00:53:44,159 --> 00:53:45,059

so she had to sort

:

00:53:45,074 --> 00:53:46,514

Laura: You could even doubt yourself.

:

00:53:46,544 --> 00:53:47,624

Yeah, yeah.

:

00:53:48,090 --> 00:53:53,550

I wonder if she did doubt herself,

Beth, until she says the thing to

:

00:53:53,550 --> 00:53:55,530

Gaas and sees his response, and

:

00:53:55,865 --> 00:53:55,945

Xhafer: Hmm.

:

00:53:56,580 --> 00:53:57,540

Laura: now she knows.

:

00:53:57,765 --> 00:53:58,485

Beth: Exactly.

:

00:53:59,280 --> 00:53:59,490

I

:

00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:00,300

Laura: And it's too late.

:

00:54:00,660 --> 00:54:04,920

Beth: yeah, I feel like, well, it

doesn't have to be too late, is all I'm

:

00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:06,090

Laura: Mm-hmm.

:

00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:08,310

Beth: you were a little less lawful good.

:

00:54:08,310 --> 00:54:09,420

And a little more chaotic.

:

00:54:09,420 --> 00:54:09,720

Good.

:

00:54:09,720 --> 00:54:12,435

You know, a little bit.

:

00:54:13,336 --> 00:54:16,396

Xhafer: I would argue that someone who's

lawful good is more likely to steal an

:

00:54:16,396 --> 00:54:17,956

election than someone who's chaotic.

:

00:54:17,956 --> 00:54:18,286

Good.

:

00:54:19,546 --> 00:54:20,596

Laura: Wow.

:

00:54:20,806 --> 00:54:21,916

Big if True,

:

00:54:22,756 --> 00:54:23,146

Beth: Yeah.

:

00:54:23,176 --> 00:54:23,896

Hey Ben.

:

00:54:23,946 --> 00:54:27,156

We need your help on that

'cause we're both chaotic.

:

00:54:27,156 --> 00:54:27,546

Good.

:

00:54:27,696 --> 00:54:29,856

And I feel like Laura's

also in the chaotic good

:

00:54:30,055 --> 00:54:32,005

Laura: Do weigh in Ben and the Discord.

:

00:54:32,425 --> 00:54:36,055

Xhafer: So just to get in

front of it, this is not your

:

00:54:36,055 --> 00:54:38,005

blend of lawful good, Ben.

:

00:54:38,845 --> 00:54:41,515

And there are different

blends of lawful good.

:

00:54:41,995 --> 00:54:42,565

All right.

:

00:54:43,075 --> 00:54:44,635

Just gonna throw that out there.

:

00:54:45,275 --> 00:54:50,225

But I feel like there is a, a, just like

there's multiple blends of chaotic good.

:

00:54:50,615 --> 00:54:55,565

Like there is a chaotic good

blend that is directly dedicated

:

00:54:55,565 --> 00:54:58,685

to like freedom specifically.

:

00:55:00,465 --> 00:55:04,425

And I mean, what makes that the

chaotic good is it's freedom for

:

00:55:04,425 --> 00:55:07,155

everyone, even when they're dumb asses.

:

00:55:07,950 --> 00:55:08,170

Beth: Yes,

:

00:55:08,970 --> 00:55:09,600

Laura: Yeah.

:

00:55:09,720 --> 00:55:12,180

Which is what Adama is writing for here.

:

00:55:12,180 --> 00:55:16,350

He literally says, you know, they

sit and they think, and he says, you

:

00:55:16,350 --> 00:55:22,140

know, if we do this, we are criminals

and you'll, you'll die inside.

:

00:55:22,350 --> 00:55:26,070

I know you, you won't

be who you are anymore.

:

00:55:26,175 --> 00:55:26,505

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:55:27,330 --> 00:55:29,910

Laura: So we've gotta

let the people be wrong.

:

00:55:30,476 --> 00:55:32,726

Beth: But the people are really wrong.

:

00:55:33,161 --> 00:55:36,071

Laura: The people have gotta be wrong

and they've gotta learn to live with it.

:

00:55:36,521 --> 00:55:36,911

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:55:37,076 --> 00:55:40,556

Beth: Yeah, but the problem is

we're all also living with it.

:

00:55:40,556 --> 00:55:41,846

And some of us

:

00:55:42,581 --> 00:55:42,701

Laura: The

:

00:55:42,866 --> 00:55:46,016

Beth: are gonna end up on an A brain worm

:

00:55:46,301 --> 00:55:49,061

Xhafer: when the people are wrong

like this, it's surely a mistake

:

00:55:49,061 --> 00:55:51,881

that will only be made once, right?

:

00:55:52,391 --> 00:55:55,871

You wouldn't, you wouldn't like have

baltar as president, watch it all

:

00:55:55,871 --> 00:55:59,921

go to shit, and then a couple years

later make him president again.

:

00:56:00,131 --> 00:56:01,331

That's absurd.

:

00:56:01,511 --> 00:56:03,791

The people's memory isn't that short.

:

00:56:05,051 --> 00:56:08,291

Laura: I really hope that you are

just referring to current events

:

00:56:08,291 --> 00:56:12,041

here and not that I'm gonna have

to deal with a second term of Gaas

:

00:56:12,041 --> 00:56:13,721

Ballar because I may lose my mind.

:

00:56:14,726 --> 00:56:19,646

Beth: Same, especially after

the ending of this episode.

:

00:56:21,536 --> 00:56:24,326

Xhafer: Um, no Spoily, I guess.

:

00:56:24,326 --> 00:56:25,226

No Spoily.

:

00:56:25,466 --> 00:56:32,096

No spoily, but I can think of at

least two other characters off the

:

00:56:32,096 --> 00:56:35,826

top of my head who have the title of

president before the show is done.

:

00:56:36,536 --> 00:56:39,056

Beth: Does one of them throw a

ball tire out of the airlock?

:

00:56:39,091 --> 00:56:41,936

Don't tell me, but I am

gonna fantasize about that

:

00:56:42,206 --> 00:56:42,536

Xhafer: Okay.

:

00:56:42,551 --> 00:56:45,191

Laura: would like ice ballar

to be thrown out of an airlock.

:

00:56:45,191 --> 00:56:47,171

That would be very satisfying.

:

00:56:47,291 --> 00:56:49,001

Okay, thanks.

:

00:56:49,736 --> 00:56:51,086

Beth: exposed to

:

00:56:51,116 --> 00:56:53,066

Xhafer: I think Baltar

gets what's coming to him.

:

00:56:53,066 --> 00:56:54,596

I'll go on record of saying that,

:

00:56:54,926 --> 00:56:55,406

Beth: Okay.

:

00:56:56,216 --> 00:56:56,576

Xhafer: I won't

:

00:56:56,741 --> 00:56:59,861

Laura: There's a lot,

there's a lot coming to Mr.

:

00:56:59,861 --> 00:57:00,521

Ballar.

:

00:57:00,521 --> 00:57:01,121

So,

:

00:57:01,316 --> 00:57:01,526

Beth: Mm-hmm.

:

00:57:03,941 --> 00:57:04,271

Laura: yep.

:

00:57:04,301 --> 00:57:06,341

We've lost the battle, but not the war.

:

00:57:06,923 --> 00:57:10,073

And, uh, Adama goes to

report the news to Baltar.

:

00:57:10,643 --> 00:57:11,033

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:57:11,483 --> 00:57:15,923

He's like, who the fuck messed up

your spreadsheet so bad that I lost?

:

00:57:16,913 --> 00:57:22,193

And the Tom was like, how about you don't

fucking push it and take the W fuck face?

:

00:57:23,243 --> 00:57:28,283

Laura: Yeah, GAAS takes it to

a real shitty place real fast

:

00:57:28,298 --> 00:57:29,918

Beth: course he does.

:

00:57:30,073 --> 00:57:33,293

Laura: someone who has no

alternatives for military leader.

:

00:57:35,168 --> 00:57:39,008

Beth: this man is just an

irredeemable fuck face.

:

00:57:39,068 --> 00:57:39,998

Frack face.

:

00:57:40,088 --> 00:57:40,748

Sorry.

:

00:57:41,368 --> 00:57:41,658

Xhafer: yeah.

:

00:57:41,843 --> 00:57:42,443

You can curse.

:

00:57:43,037 --> 00:57:43,127

Beth: Yeah.

:

00:57:43,127 --> 00:57:44,542

But it's really fun to say frack.

:

00:57:44,942 --> 00:57:45,542

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:57:46,682 --> 00:57:48,242

Well, he is all like,

well then I'm not Mr.

:

00:57:48,242 --> 00:57:49,022

Fuck face.

:

00:57:49,472 --> 00:57:50,012

I'm Mr.

:

00:57:50,012 --> 00:57:53,672

President, and you can set

course for fucking new caprica.

:

00:57:53,867 --> 00:57:54,677

Beth: president

:

00:57:55,127 --> 00:57:55,967

Fuck face.

:

00:57:55,967 --> 00:57:56,657

Yes.

:

00:58:01,112 --> 00:58:02,132

Xhafer: Well done team.

:

00:58:05,312 --> 00:58:07,832

They arrive and prep for surveying.

:

00:58:09,032 --> 00:58:11,522

Over on Cloud nine, Baltar and Gina talk.

:

00:58:11,972 --> 00:58:16,052

And when she says she isn't going to

new Caprica, he gets pretty upset.

:

00:58:16,837 --> 00:58:17,347

Like

:

00:58:17,437 --> 00:58:18,097

Laura: so dumb.

:

00:58:18,097 --> 00:58:18,877

He's so dumb.

:

00:58:19,327 --> 00:58:22,987

Xhafer: it's gonna be so hard for her to

hide on new Caprica compared to a ship.

:

00:58:22,987 --> 00:58:24,517

This makes perfect sense to me,

:

00:58:25,282 --> 00:58:25,632

Laura: Uhhuh.

:

00:58:26,347 --> 00:58:32,947

Xhafer: but he doesn't seem to wanna

see logic and she invites him in

:

00:58:32,947 --> 00:58:35,737

for a little bit of the sexy time.

:

00:58:36,487 --> 00:58:38,647

Laura: This is so creepy.

:

00:58:39,307 --> 00:58:41,527

Xhafer: It's fucking weird.

:

00:58:41,587 --> 00:58:43,627

Laura: does not feel consensual.

:

00:58:43,632 --> 00:58:45,877

Beth: That's what, right, exactly.

:

00:58:45,877 --> 00:58:52,567

I, I was about to say, I don't feel

like she, she wanted to do that at all.

:

00:58:52,567 --> 00:58:53,227

Laura: Mm-hmm.

:

00:58:53,347 --> 00:58:54,697

And he's just fine with it.

:

00:58:54,907 --> 00:58:55,627

Beth: Yeah.

:

00:58:55,897 --> 00:58:56,197

Xhafer: Well,

:

00:58:56,647 --> 00:58:57,397

' Beth: cause of course he is.

:

00:58:58,513 --> 00:59:02,503

Laura: But even, even like with the

logical argument that you put forth

:

00:59:02,563 --> 00:59:04,933

Jair of like, she can't hide down there.

:

00:59:05,023 --> 00:59:11,533

Like why would she go her behavior

should be sending up so many red flags

:

00:59:12,043 --> 00:59:12,553

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

:

00:59:13,003 --> 00:59:19,903

Laura: to gais of like, she's

like crying, having sex with me

:

00:59:19,903 --> 00:59:22,723

and he's just interpreting that

as like, she's gonna miss me.

:

00:59:22,993 --> 00:59:24,463

Not that she's got like

:

00:59:25,011 --> 00:59:25,361

Xhafer: Plans.

:

00:59:25,516 --> 00:59:26,296

Laura: a plan.

:

00:59:27,296 --> 00:59:28,706

Xhafer: You gave her a nuke,

:

00:59:30,176 --> 00:59:31,676

like I gave this bitch a nuke.

:

00:59:31,736 --> 00:59:32,936

Bitches love nukes.

:

00:59:32,936 --> 00:59:35,936

Like, what are you fucking doing, buddy?

:

00:59:36,761 --> 00:59:40,601

Beth: He doesn't care because

as far as he is concerned,

:

00:59:40,631 --> 00:59:42,461

women are there to serve him,

:

00:59:42,596 --> 00:59:45,141

Xhafer: Well, I mean, yes, like, yes.

:

00:59:45,146 --> 00:59:45,236

Yeah.

:

00:59:45,281 --> 00:59:49,061

Beth: so she would never do that to him

because she only cares about serving him.

:

00:59:50,103 --> 00:59:51,278

I'm doing what's best for him.

:

00:59:51,923 --> 00:59:56,813

Laura: Even though it was made

like explicitly clear to Gaas in

:

00:59:56,813 --> 01:00:02,723

the mini series that the Model

six ain't here to serve you.

:

01:00:03,593 --> 01:00:09,443

The model six is her own actualized

being with her own motivations and has

:

01:00:09,443 --> 01:00:17,003

been this whole time, even the one in

your head had her own shit going on.

:

01:00:18,166 --> 01:00:20,356

I wanna say one last thing about

:

01:00:20,686 --> 01:00:23,686

the obviously non-consensual sex

:

01:00:24,526 --> 01:00:30,316

In this scene there was like

the six PT music started.

:

01:00:30,751 --> 01:00:34,291

As the scene is concluding and they're,

they're going in for the sexy times,

:

01:00:34,291 --> 01:00:36,871

and I was like, oh, I don't know.

:

01:00:36,871 --> 01:00:42,781

Some, I, I just, I, that music, it

makes me think that there's like a clue

:

01:00:42,781 --> 01:00:46,201

there that I should be seeing that I'm

not seeing, but maybe the clue is just

:

01:00:46,201 --> 01:00:47,821

like, Hey, she's gonna blow shit up.

:

01:00:48,766 --> 01:00:49,096

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

01:00:49,816 --> 01:00:51,136

Maybe the show's fucking with you.

:

01:00:52,321 --> 01:00:53,071

Laura: Maybe

:

01:00:53,791 --> 01:00:55,021

Beth: The show does

:

01:00:55,216 --> 01:00:55,666

Xhafer: The show.

:

01:00:55,906 --> 01:00:59,236

The show is famous for using

music to fuck with you.

:

01:00:59,236 --> 01:00:59,476

It's

:

01:00:59,476 --> 01:01:01,936

like LTOs that aren't true.

:

01:01:02,206 --> 01:01:04,876

And then bear McCury

being a cheeky bastard.

:

01:01:05,759 --> 01:01:06,269

So.

:

01:01:06,319 --> 01:01:08,264

Laura: it's like 50% of the show.

:

01:01:08,324 --> 01:01:08,774

Yeah.

:

01:01:08,894 --> 01:01:13,124

Beth: is this 'cause of your giant

lesbian crush on Bear McCreary babe.

:

01:01:13,634 --> 01:01:18,404

Xhafer: Look, it's not a lesbian

crush, it's just a gay crush.

:

01:01:19,019 --> 01:01:23,339

Beth: I know it's just like anytime I

say I have a big crush on somebody, I

:

01:01:23,339 --> 01:01:29,099

can't help but say, but I've got a big

lesbian crush them because of mean girls.

:

01:01:29,594 --> 01:01:29,954

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

01:01:30,734 --> 01:01:32,834

Like I'm not going to

U-Haul with Bear Perrey.

:

01:01:32,924 --> 01:01:33,374

Right.

:

01:01:33,419 --> 01:01:39,809

Beth: Well that would be cool I don't want

you to U-Haul with bear recurring either.

:

01:01:39,899 --> 01:01:39,989

Like

:

01:01:40,964 --> 01:01:41,654

Xhafer: Exactly.

:

01:01:42,644 --> 01:01:46,097

So, uh, Gais gets sworn

in as president here.

:

01:01:46,097 --> 01:01:50,147

We're cutting between this and

scenes of Gina playing the worst

:

01:01:50,147 --> 01:01:52,427

d and d variant, naked nukes.

:

01:01:54,039 --> 01:01:55,029

And we see what.

:

01:01:55,674 --> 01:01:58,344

Her plan was, and what she was talking

about when she said she wasn't going

:

01:01:58,344 --> 01:02:04,704

onto the planet as she fires the nuke

exploding count cloud nine, taking several

:

01:02:04,704 --> 01:02:06,954

other ships with it in its explosion.

:

01:02:07,269 --> 01:02:08,859

Laura: I wondered how many ships.

:

01:02:08,859 --> 01:02:10,719

We don't, we don't know

exactly at this point,

:

01:02:10,824 --> 01:02:17,064

Xhafer: We, at this, I don't think we

ever get an actual, um, I'm sure that

:

01:02:17,064 --> 01:02:23,454

the community has counted the ships and

the differences and it's either assumed

:

01:02:23,454 --> 01:02:28,944

losses at a point during the previous

year or stuff that's landed on new

:

01:02:28,944 --> 01:02:31,944

caprica and was scrapped over the year.

:

01:02:32,454 --> 01:02:38,544

Um, like it's hard to say exactly,

um, what is and isn't, but we

:

01:02:38,544 --> 01:02:42,474

definitely see two ships in

this shot get exploded with it.

:

01:02:43,089 --> 01:02:43,509

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:02:43,884 --> 01:02:46,284

Xhafer: So at the minimum, two more ships.

:

01:02:46,659 --> 01:02:46,949

Beth: Yeah.

:

01:02:47,739 --> 01:02:48,159

Laura: Yep.

:

01:02:48,369 --> 01:02:53,046

So, Baltar stares at a piece

of paper while Adama says,

:

01:02:53,046 --> 01:02:55,411

Hey, it was your nuke buddy.

:

01:02:56,991 --> 01:02:57,291

Xhafer: Yep.

:

01:02:57,591 --> 01:02:58,691

Laura: We don't know how they got it.

:

01:02:59,714 --> 01:03:00,064

Weird.

:

01:03:00,962 --> 01:03:04,142

Xhafer: also, uh, it's worth calling

out that for the first time since the

:

01:03:04,142 --> 01:03:10,232

mini series, the camera gets damaged

in a nuclear explosion, which the last

:

01:03:10,232 --> 01:03:14,042

time we saw the camera get damaged as

part of a, the fallout of a nuclear

:

01:03:14,042 --> 01:03:19,892

explosion, it was when they blew up the

peace station, which is so only when

:

01:03:19,892 --> 01:03:24,542

human ships get nuked and everyone on

them dies, does the camera get damaged?

:

01:03:25,742 --> 01:03:26,432

Which is fun

:

01:03:26,972 --> 01:03:28,592

And by fun I mean terrible.

:

01:03:29,851 --> 01:03:32,371

Baltar is at his presidential desk here.

:

01:03:32,913 --> 01:03:35,802

Telling them that nuke was

stolen like we just talked about.

:

01:03:36,342 --> 01:03:38,172

And he's all like, we

don't have time for this.

:

01:03:38,172 --> 01:03:39,042

Settle the people.

:

01:03:39,042 --> 01:03:44,862

And adama's all like, bro, if this

was a silent attack here where

:

01:03:44,862 --> 01:03:49,662

we're settling, this is the dumbest

fucking idea you've ever had.

:

01:03:49,722 --> 01:03:54,732

And I say that as someone who's watched

you colossally fuck up multiple times,

:

01:03:55,422 --> 01:03:59,142

and he's all like, I'm the fucking

president and I get what I want.

:

01:03:59,592 --> 01:04:01,272

Settling now.

:

01:04:01,332 --> 01:04:06,552

And this is when we get the

shot, T-M-T-M-T-M we start at

:

01:04:06,552 --> 01:04:09,822

like the back of capric one.

:

01:04:10,362 --> 01:04:14,802

Like we zoom out a little bit from

the desk and then we slowly zoom in.

:

01:04:15,092 --> 01:04:15,382

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:04:15,652 --> 01:04:16,737

Gais is head, head

:

01:04:17,172 --> 01:04:17,442

Xhafer: yeah.

:

01:04:17,442 --> 01:04:20,742

Guy puts his head down during this and.

:

01:04:21,807 --> 01:04:24,297

As it zooms in, like right on his hair.

:

01:04:24,507 --> 01:04:28,257

So we don't notice the lighting

shift until he lifts his head.

:

01:04:28,557 --> 01:04:30,477

And the lighting is completely different.

:

01:04:30,477 --> 01:04:34,737

It's gone from synthetic lighting to

natural lighting in cap in Colonial one.

:

01:04:35,096 --> 01:04:36,267

Beth: It's so fucking clever.

:

01:04:36,596 --> 01:04:39,627

Xhafer: Gaas is fucking tired looking.

:

01:04:40,137 --> 01:04:41,547

He just looks like shit.

:

01:04:41,907 --> 01:04:47,457

and uh, we see that the room

around him has changed as well.

:

01:04:47,659 --> 01:04:51,369

he's got a big old big wooden

desk now that instead of like

:

01:04:51,369 --> 01:04:55,299

the little one that Roslyn had,

this is like a very ornate desk.

:

01:04:55,299 --> 01:04:57,159

There's a painting of

him in the background.

:

01:04:57,644 --> 01:04:58,299

Laura: Oh, gross.

:

01:04:58,929 --> 01:05:01,629

Xhafer: there's a big bed with

friction with sheets on them.

:

01:05:02,269 --> 01:05:02,449

And

:

01:05:02,509 --> 01:05:02,779

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:05:02,779 --> 01:05:04,519

In the cockpit behind him.

:

01:05:04,609 --> 01:05:05,029

Yeah.

:

01:05:05,859 --> 01:05:09,399

Xhafer: And then also there's just

a bunch of like gilded things from

:

01:05:09,399 --> 01:05:11,169

Home Depot all over the place.

:

01:05:11,349 --> 01:05:11,589

Beth: Mm-hmm.

:

01:05:11,889 --> 01:05:12,339

Laura: Mm-hmm.

:

01:05:13,329 --> 01:05:19,749

Beth: And like two young looking

interns or ladies, I've been

:

01:05:19,749 --> 01:05:21,369

assuming they're interns, but,

:

01:05:21,819 --> 01:05:22,149

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

01:05:22,804 --> 01:05:27,849

Beth: 'cause you know he wants to fuck

like JFK, but he doesn't wanna work

:

01:05:27,849 --> 01:05:31,599

like JFK and that's the fucking problem.

:

01:05:32,559 --> 01:05:32,859

Xhafer: Yep.

:

01:05:33,339 --> 01:05:33,759

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:05:34,074 --> 01:05:38,913

Xhafer: So as this is all going down

someone could stress in the background as

:

01:05:38,913 --> 01:05:41,764

the words one year later appear on screen.

:

01:05:42,362 --> 01:05:42,782

Laura: yeah.

:

01:05:42,932 --> 01:05:48,362

And GAA is pestering gais

awake to talk about the union.

:

01:05:48,822 --> 01:05:49,242

Beth: Mm-hmm.

:

01:05:49,742 --> 01:05:50,252

Xhafer: Yep.

:

01:05:50,312 --> 01:05:55,982

The union leadership is complaining Gais

offers to arrest them for their troubles.

:

01:05:56,541 --> 01:05:57,111

Beth: Wow.

:

01:05:57,171 --> 01:06:00,801

It would really suck to have a president

who would do something like that.

:

01:06:01,410 --> 01:06:01,650

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:06:01,650 --> 01:06:06,570

Gais wants to take responsibility and

accolades for their having been no

:

01:06:06,570 --> 01:06:08,580

silent attacks in a year, and he's like.

:

01:06:09,450 --> 01:06:11,100

There've been no silent attacks.

:

01:06:11,100 --> 01:06:13,350

I don't understand why

the people want more.

:

01:06:13,350 --> 01:06:15,029

God, and it's like

:

01:06:16,215 --> 01:06:17,085

Beth: Yes, because

:

01:06:17,085 --> 01:06:17,835

correlation.

:

01:06:18,210 --> 01:06:19,320

Laura: the bare minimum.

:

01:06:19,720 --> 01:06:20,140

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

:

01:06:20,775 --> 01:06:24,135

Beth: Correlation

famously equals causation.

:

01:06:24,375 --> 01:06:24,735

Xhafer: Oh, yeah.

:

01:06:24,735 --> 01:06:25,545

Everyone knows.

:

01:06:25,980 --> 01:06:26,640

Laura: yeah.

:

01:06:27,135 --> 01:06:27,465

Xhafer: Yep.

:

01:06:27,675 --> 01:06:30,975

We see the gray tones of new Caprica

for the first time as we zoom out

:

01:06:30,975 --> 01:06:33,404

the window here, we go up to orbit.

:

01:06:33,404 --> 01:06:36,585

We see Galactica, Pegasus,

and a few ships remaining.

:

01:06:36,805 --> 01:06:37,154

Laura: Uhhuh,

:

01:06:37,845 --> 01:06:40,904

Xhafer: We get shots of empty

hangar, bays and hallways,

:

01:06:41,835 --> 01:06:44,235

interplayed by a mustache to dama.

:

01:06:45,075 --> 01:06:47,025

The lights flickering in the hallway.

:

01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:51,300

Laura: I turned to Erin and I

was like, please tell me we're,

:

01:06:51,660 --> 01:06:54,450

we're not gonna do the Adama

mustache for the rest of the show.

:

01:06:57,180 --> 01:06:58,710

I was like, I want my Adama back.

:

01:06:58,710 --> 01:07:03,540

I think it's just like, this is the

like time change signal, because we had

:

01:07:03,540 --> 01:07:06,240

Flashback Adama who also had the mustache.

:

01:07:06,330 --> 01:07:09,360

Xhafer: so we've been talking

about this in s Spoiler town

:

01:07:09,360 --> 01:07:11,250

for a couple of weeks now.

:

01:07:11,460 --> 01:07:12,180

Beth: It's just

:

01:07:12,340 --> 01:07:19,120

Xhafer: But the time jump that happens

here is made even more obvious in

:

01:07:19,750 --> 01:07:23,500

cosmetic choices in the characters when

we get to season three episode one.

:

01:07:23,800 --> 01:07:24,370

Laura: Okay.

:

01:07:24,430 --> 01:07:26,560

Yeah, there were some I noticed here.

:

01:07:26,650 --> 01:07:27,100

Yeah.

:

01:07:27,830 --> 01:07:33,350

Xhafer: There were some that were

here that were there, but not as much.

:

01:07:33,410 --> 01:07:38,960

It is not comical when we get

to season three, episode one.

:

01:07:39,410 --> 01:07:39,710

Laura: Fun.

:

01:07:39,845 --> 01:07:40,115

Beth: Okay.

:

01:07:40,115 --> 01:07:40,505

Word?

:

01:07:41,630 --> 01:07:43,910

Xhafer: M embarrassing in retrospect.

:

01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:44,840

I'll put it that way.

:

01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:47,660

Laura: Ty looks pretty much the same.

:

01:07:47,660 --> 01:07:50,630

So Adama is going to have

a conversation with Ty

:

01:07:50,779 --> 01:07:51,110

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

01:07:51,342 --> 01:07:55,572

Beth: This is absolutely

my favorite scene thus far

:

01:07:56,292 --> 01:07:57,792

is this conversation between them.

:

01:07:58,242 --> 01:07:58,692

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

01:07:59,138 --> 01:07:59,588

Beth: That's it.

:

01:08:00,083 --> 01:08:05,243

Laura: Adama goes to like say, man,

you gotta, you gotta pack it in.

:

01:08:05,243 --> 01:08:07,673

Like there's nothing for you up here.

:

01:08:07,673 --> 01:08:12,023

And I guess Ellen has been

pestering him to move to the planet.

:

01:08:12,803 --> 01:08:15,393

And Ty is like, no.

:

01:08:15,393 --> 01:08:18,452

We both know the silence

can come back at any time.

:

01:08:18,813 --> 01:08:21,212

Like, it, it, they really could.

:

01:08:22,353 --> 01:08:27,002

But he finally like, gives

into Adama's basically orders.

:

01:08:27,638 --> 01:08:27,928

Beth: Yeah.

:

01:08:28,502 --> 01:08:32,542

Laura: And Adama tells him,

what, what does he say exactly?

:

01:08:32,542 --> 01:08:36,263

He says, if she won't leave

you alone, traitor in for a

:

01:08:36,263 --> 01:08:37,883

younger model or something?

:

01:08:37,883 --> 01:08:39,743

Beth: That part did not love.

:

01:08:39,923 --> 01:08:45,233

Although honestly, in all reality,

Ty and Ellen should not be together.

:

01:08:45,233 --> 01:08:46,792

They are toxic as hell.

:

01:08:47,183 --> 01:08:53,363

But no, my favorite part, yeah, seriously,

no amount of Deanna Troy can fix them.

:

01:08:53,698 --> 01:08:56,917

Laura: Yeah, but younger

model was not necessary.

:

01:08:57,383 --> 01:08:58,702

Beth: no, it really wasn't.

:

01:08:58,702 --> 01:08:59,693

That was gross.

:

01:08:59,888 --> 01:09:00,758

Laura: gross and creepy,

:

01:09:00,773 --> 01:09:01,283

Beth: yes.

:

01:09:01,462 --> 01:09:03,413

I should amend my earlier statement.

:

01:09:03,923 --> 01:09:04,523

My favorite.

:

01:09:05,542 --> 01:09:12,593

Lines in this show thus far are when

Adama and Ty are talking, and Adama says

:

01:09:12,593 --> 01:09:14,903

there can only be one lighthouse keeper.

:

01:09:15,332 --> 01:09:15,952

Laura: Oh, yes.

:

01:09:16,073 --> 01:09:21,563

Beth: Ty says, you know, like, well,

I could be in the lighthouse with you.

:

01:09:21,593 --> 01:09:22,013

Like,

:

01:09:25,142 --> 01:09:26,461

Laura: Yeah, I don't know.

:

01:09:26,461 --> 01:09:27,301

I don't, I don't know.

:

01:09:27,301 --> 01:09:30,242

I might, I don't know what's

gonna happen with Ellen in season

:

01:09:30,242 --> 01:09:35,192

three, but I, I wasn't hating it

here at the end, so Oh, oh, oh.

:

01:09:35,252 --> 01:09:35,612

Jair

:

01:09:35,687 --> 01:09:37,247

Beth: Oh no, don't do that.

:

01:09:37,397 --> 01:09:38,836

I don't like it when he does

:

01:09:39,072 --> 01:09:45,407

Xhafer: Back down on New CAPA

City, we see the population 39,192.

:

01:09:46,551 --> 01:09:46,772

Laura: Aha.

:

01:09:47,657 --> 01:09:51,877

Xhafer: Now this is short thousands,

:

01:09:52,777 --> 01:09:54,577

Laura: 'cause we still

have people on the ships.

:

01:09:54,577 --> 01:09:55,657

They're not included.

:

01:09:56,484 --> 01:09:56,774

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

01:09:57,189 --> 01:09:59,499

The, the people on the

ships are not included.

:

01:09:59,799 --> 01:10:02,318

The people who died were not included.

:

01:10:02,559 --> 01:10:05,829

Cloud nine was one of the biggest

civilian ships in the fleet.

:

01:10:06,068 --> 01:10:06,229

Beth: right.

:

01:10:07,149 --> 01:10:09,579

Xhafer: Cloud nine lots of people

on cloud nine all the time.

:

01:10:10,629 --> 01:10:16,329

So presumably I would say just on

cloud nine, probably 5,000 people died,

:

01:10:16,827 --> 01:10:16,948

Laura: Okay.

:

01:10:18,088 --> 01:10:21,088

Xhafer: may maybe give

or take plus or minus.

:

01:10:21,238 --> 01:10:25,228

You know, you got your other ships

and then you've got the crew of the

:

01:10:25,228 --> 01:10:30,478

Galactica, the crew of the Pegasus and

the crews of like presumably like the

:

01:10:30,478 --> 01:10:33,688

Tillium refiner and the couple of other

ships that are hanging out in orbit.

:

01:10:33,928 --> 01:10:35,878

Laura: That, that have to be up there.

:

01:10:35,878 --> 01:10:39,868

Yeah, so, so we're in agreement

then that 39,000 is the people

:

01:10:39,868 --> 01:10:41,308

on the planet at this moment.

:

01:10:41,428 --> 01:10:42,088

Xhafer: a hundred percent.

:

01:10:42,088 --> 01:10:42,718

That's that.

:

01:10:42,718 --> 01:10:43,648

That's that's fact.

:

01:10:43,798 --> 01:10:44,098

Yeah.

:

01:10:44,653 --> 01:10:51,803

Beth: plus like, I mean, so we find

out that, um, star be's man friend

:

01:10:51,952 --> 01:10:53,633

whose name I can never remember.

:

01:10:53,693 --> 01:10:54,683

The Sportman.

:

01:10:55,043 --> 01:10:56,183

Yeah, sorry, Anders.

:

01:10:56,183 --> 01:10:56,333

There

:

01:10:56,378 --> 01:10:57,968

Xhafer: Samuel, Anders.

:

01:10:58,493 --> 01:10:59,573

Beth: Anders.

:

01:11:00,023 --> 01:11:05,813

um, has come down with the pneumonia

and it's like a sick and it's like,

:

01:11:05,813 --> 01:11:11,452

you know, really chilly planet and

like, you know, probably a lot of

:

01:11:11,452 --> 01:11:14,123

people died of sickness, maybe famine,

:

01:11:14,478 --> 01:11:14,768

Xhafer: Yeah,

:

01:11:15,202 --> 01:11:17,393

Beth: just, you know, new settler shit.

:

01:11:18,263 --> 01:11:20,873

You member, you member

from the Oregon Trail

:

01:11:21,308 --> 01:11:21,803

listener, you

:

01:11:22,248 --> 01:11:22,858

Laura: Dysentery.

:

01:11:23,858 --> 01:11:24,638

Xhafer: They hate Chipotle.

:

01:11:25,028 --> 01:11:25,448

Yeah.

:

01:11:26,798 --> 01:11:32,258

Beth: They found an abandoned Chipotle and

all died of dysentery population 39,000,

:

01:11:34,283 --> 01:11:34,702

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:11:34,702 --> 01:11:41,003

And not only did he catch pneumonia, but

the antibiotics are all gone except for

:

01:11:41,003 --> 01:11:44,183

a tiny reserve supply on the Pegasus.

:

01:11:44,273 --> 01:11:46,973

That is probably like for military use.

:

01:11:46,973 --> 01:11:50,123

So we don't have our

soldiers dying of pneumonia.

:

01:11:50,513 --> 01:11:50,803

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

01:11:52,179 --> 01:11:52,269

Yep.

:

01:11:52,359 --> 01:11:54,039

It's a whole problem.

:

01:11:54,514 --> 01:11:56,764

Starbuck is trying to

figure out alternatives.

:

01:11:56,764 --> 01:11:57,934

She goes to Ty.

:

01:11:58,784 --> 01:12:02,354

She sees the ties walk into a tent

where Tiro, our union president, is

:

01:12:02,354 --> 01:12:04,424

speaking with a very pregnant Callie,

:

01:12:05,144 --> 01:12:05,364

Laura: Mm.

:

01:12:06,414 --> 01:12:06,774

Xhafer: Star.

:

01:12:06,774 --> 01:12:10,674

Beeson runs up and gives Ty a hug, which

kind of takes him aback for a minute.

:

01:12:11,734 --> 01:12:16,774

He recommends that she reach out to

Apollo as Tiro calls out for a strike.

:

01:12:17,869 --> 01:12:18,709

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:12:19,279 --> 01:12:24,229

Our union man has grown his beard even

more like he has bushier beard here

:

01:12:25,474 --> 01:12:25,624

Xhafer: The

:

01:12:26,389 --> 01:12:27,589

Laura: and and glasses.

:

01:12:27,589 --> 01:12:28,818

He's doing a glasses thing.

:

01:12:29,254 --> 01:12:29,734

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

:

01:12:30,365 --> 01:12:31,115

Laura: It's not bad.

:

01:12:31,728 --> 01:12:35,118

Xhafer: Rosalyn is now a school

teacher with Maya as her ta.

:

01:12:36,153 --> 01:12:38,343

Beth: and she's looking a lot happier,

:

01:12:39,378 --> 01:12:39,648

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:12:39,648 --> 01:12:40,408

She's good with these kids.

:

01:12:41,103 --> 01:12:41,643

Beth: Yeah.

:

01:12:42,153 --> 01:12:42,663

Yeah.

:

01:12:43,920 --> 01:12:47,880

Laura: Maya tells her that Baltar's

got a problem on his hands,

:

01:12:48,300 --> 01:12:52,770

presumably talking about the union

and spreading the little union gossip.

:

01:12:52,770 --> 01:12:55,320

But Rosalyn don't care.

:

01:12:56,275 --> 01:12:56,495

Beth: Mm.

:

01:12:57,000 --> 01:12:58,500

Laura: Fuck that guy.

:

01:12:59,400 --> 01:12:59,670

Beth: Yeah.

:

01:13:00,420 --> 01:13:02,850

Well, it's the president's problem

and we're not the president.

:

01:13:02,850 --> 01:13:03,330

Mayor.

:

01:13:03,570 --> 01:13:05,970

Xhafer: Guy bitch dark

can go fuck himself.

:

01:13:06,390 --> 01:13:10,830

Beth: Yes, we are going to hang out

with children because they're adorable.

:

01:13:12,815 --> 01:13:17,460

Laura: And, oh, your baby can come

to class too, because we are all

:

01:13:17,460 --> 01:13:19,680

about the working mother here.

:

01:13:19,890 --> 01:13:23,309

And you keep baby Isis close.

:

01:13:23,580 --> 01:13:23,970

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

01:13:23,970 --> 01:13:25,230

Not, um, not totally.

:

01:13:25,230 --> 01:13:26,640

Not just keeping tabs.

:

01:13:26,940 --> 01:13:27,780

Oh, was it the pa?

:

01:13:27,840 --> 01:13:28,380

Oh god.

:

01:13:28,380 --> 01:13:29,130

I didn't notice.

:

01:13:30,240 --> 01:13:30,900

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:13:31,110 --> 01:13:33,660

This, you can tell this was

written before a certain time.

:

01:13:34,170 --> 01:13:34,920

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

01:13:34,965 --> 01:13:38,505

Beth: Yeah, because I mean,

she was the goddess of like

:

01:13:38,505 --> 01:13:40,785

magic and rainbows and shit.

:

01:13:41,085 --> 01:13:41,475

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:13:42,280 --> 01:13:47,350

Beth: I'm not gonna say her name

right now because, but that goddess

:

01:13:47,350 --> 01:13:50,980

was cool until certain events

:

01:13:51,160 --> 01:13:51,670

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:13:52,480 --> 01:13:54,340

Until context changed the meaning.

:

01:13:54,550 --> 01:13:55,600

Beth: Exactly.

:

01:13:55,960 --> 01:13:56,520

Xhafer: co-opted

:

01:13:56,995 --> 01:13:57,215

Beth: It.

:

01:13:58,942 --> 01:13:59,482

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:13:59,482 --> 01:14:05,952

So, star bes goes to call the Pegasus

from, I guess maybe a decommissioned

:

01:14:05,952 --> 01:14:07,752

raptor or one that just is like on the

:

01:14:07,977 --> 01:14:08,547

Xhafer: hanging out on the

:

01:14:08,547 --> 01:14:09,177

surface

:

01:14:09,207 --> 01:14:09,657

Yeah.

:

01:14:09,987 --> 01:14:10,977

you might need one down there.

:

01:14:11,632 --> 01:14:13,192

Laura: And du answers the phone.

:

01:14:14,017 --> 01:14:14,767

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

01:14:15,277 --> 01:14:19,987

D in the dress uniform and his, the XO.

:

01:14:20,790 --> 01:14:22,530

Laura: Oh, no, Lee, really?

:

01:14:23,889 --> 01:14:24,774

Oh, okay.

:

01:14:26,754 --> 01:14:29,634

I mean, it seems like a lot of people.

:

01:14:30,024 --> 01:14:35,894

Went to Papa Dama with their hats

and their hands and said, please,

:

01:14:35,894 --> 01:14:40,424

Papa Dama, I would like to resign

my commission and live a civilian

:

01:14:40,424 --> 01:14:42,104

life on the terrible planet.

:

01:14:43,119 --> 01:14:44,109

Beth: Daddy, please.

:

01:14:45,193 --> 01:14:46,693

Laura: may I please Daddy dama.

:

01:14:48,049 --> 01:14:48,999

Beth: Daddy, please.

:

01:14:49,369 --> 01:14:49,719

Daddy.

:

01:14:50,129 --> 01:14:51,209

Xhafer: You may go.

:

01:14:51,749 --> 01:14:52,799

All of them.

:

01:14:54,119 --> 01:14:55,889

Anyone who fucking wanted.

:

01:14:56,324 --> 01:15:00,943

Laura: and so then Ologist gets like,

promotion, promotion, promotion, because

:

01:15:00,959 --> 01:15:03,568

Xhafer: Even if she's not

promoted, it's just like, okay.

:

01:15:03,568 --> 01:15:07,559

Well, technically an instant second

class is the third highest ranking

:

01:15:07,559 --> 01:15:09,029

person on the ship right now.

:

01:15:09,479 --> 01:15:12,299

Pegasus is mostly automated anyways, so,

:

01:15:12,968 --> 01:15:13,778

Laura: Oh yeah.

:

01:15:15,743 --> 01:15:21,783

Xhafer: as they're talking to Starbucks,

talking to Lee here Cylon fleet jumps in.

:

01:15:23,448 --> 01:15:24,408

Laura: We got some Andres

:

01:15:25,293 --> 01:15:25,968

Xhafer: Dun, dun, dun.

:

01:15:27,123 --> 01:15:31,248

Beth: They sensed, they sensed

the relaxation in the colony.

:

01:15:31,308 --> 01:15:32,193

Laura: the sphincters.

:

01:15:32,327 --> 01:15:33,108

Were all letting

:

01:15:33,243 --> 01:15:33,603

Beth: Yes.

:

01:15:33,813 --> 01:15:34,443

Yes.

:

01:15:34,683 --> 01:15:39,783

There was a collective gas cloud above

the planet that, in that signified

:

01:15:40,713 --> 01:15:42,398

the relaxation of the sphincters.

:

01:15:46,008 --> 01:15:46,788

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:15:46,878 --> 01:15:51,858

So, um, it's time to go Lee

and Adama, like have a quick

:

01:15:51,858 --> 01:15:53,327

phone call about, oh shit.

:

01:15:53,327 --> 01:15:53,688

Oh shit.

:

01:15:53,688 --> 01:15:54,048

Oh shit.

:

01:15:54,048 --> 01:15:54,798

Oh shit guys.

:

01:15:54,827 --> 01:15:55,368

Oh shit.

:

01:15:56,577 --> 01:15:57,508

They can't stay here.

:

01:15:57,988 --> 01:15:58,678

Helo.

:

01:15:59,188 --> 01:15:59,668

Helo.

:

01:15:59,668 --> 01:16:02,788

like, says, okay, Papa Adama.

:

01:16:02,788 --> 01:16:04,588

We finally got to condition one.

:

01:16:05,068 --> 01:16:08,908

'cause everybody's been running back

and forth, pressing their buttons.

:

01:16:09,223 --> 01:16:10,843

And it took a minute.

:

01:16:10,873 --> 01:16:12,373

'cause there's so few of us.

:

01:16:12,798 --> 01:16:13,218

Xhafer: mm-hmm.

:

01:16:14,323 --> 01:16:16,708

Laura: And so they, they go, they jump

:

01:16:17,258 --> 01:16:18,068

Xhafer: Yeah, they jump

:

01:16:18,148 --> 01:16:18,848

Laura: all the ships.

:

01:16:20,045 --> 01:16:24,095

Xhafer: we cut down to the surface

where a Leo Obin stops by Kara's tent.

:

01:16:25,190 --> 01:16:29,982

As a a Doral Sharon, and a

six walk into Colonial one

:

01:16:30,469 --> 01:16:34,887

And we learned that this is Capric

six and presumably Boomer, they

:

01:16:34,887 --> 01:16:36,147

don't confirm that, but we get

:

01:16:36,357 --> 01:16:36,987

confirmation.

:

01:16:36,987 --> 01:16:38,187

This is Kaka six.

:

01:16:38,497 --> 01:16:38,787

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:16:39,117 --> 01:16:39,657

Beth: Yeah.

:

01:16:40,017 --> 01:16:44,007

Xhafer: They found the nuke

radiation left over from cloud nine.

:

01:16:44,187 --> 01:16:46,017

That's how they discovered the colony.

:

01:16:46,767 --> 01:16:47,967

Beth: Mm.

:

01:16:48,177 --> 01:16:49,557

Totally by accident

:

01:16:50,043 --> 01:16:50,333

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:16:50,333 --> 01:16:52,388

Definitely not part of any plans.

:

01:16:52,853 --> 01:16:53,993

Xhafer: not part of any plans.

:

01:16:54,481 --> 01:16:59,011

Uh, Gaia surrenders and the toasters

march through New Caprica City.

:

01:16:59,785 --> 01:17:04,315

Beth: And Gia doesn't even like

pretend to think about it for a minute.

:

01:17:04,375 --> 01:17:06,145

He's just like, yep, no, we surrender.

:

01:17:06,175 --> 01:17:07,495

'cause I'm a spineless piece of shit.

:

01:17:08,184 --> 01:17:11,305

Laura: I mean, I don't know if I

blame him here 'cause it's like, what

:

01:17:11,305 --> 01:17:13,135

the fuck you gonna do little man?

:

01:17:13,135 --> 01:17:15,085

He's, he's clearly like drugged up too

:

01:17:15,900 --> 01:17:16,345

Beth: Oh yeah.

:

01:17:16,345 --> 01:17:19,807

He's drugged up in the laps of the Yeah.

:

01:17:19,867 --> 01:17:22,297

The plural lapse of his uh,

:

01:17:22,682 --> 01:17:25,322

Laura: of the ladies as the open or no.

:

01:17:25,372 --> 01:17:26,992

Do all charges in, right?

:

01:17:27,112 --> 01:17:27,562

Yeah.

:

01:17:28,422 --> 01:17:30,372

So I don't know.

:

01:17:30,372 --> 01:17:31,632

Maybe that is a good call.

:

01:17:31,632 --> 01:17:32,862

Like, what the fuck you gonna do?

:

01:17:33,957 --> 01:17:36,057

Beth: I'm still, I'm still

gonna call him a spineless.

:

01:17:36,057 --> 01:17:36,807

Weenie for it.

:

01:17:36,822 --> 01:17:38,472

Laura: He is a, he is still a spineless.

:

01:17:38,472 --> 01:17:41,592

Weenie, definitely,

definitely, definitely.

:

01:17:41,682 --> 01:17:43,302

Like invertebrate.

:

01:17:43,692 --> 01:17:45,372

No bones in that body.

:

01:17:45,612 --> 01:17:49,512

Xhafer: No, before we go to credits,

we get a little line with like,

:

01:17:50,052 --> 01:17:52,092

Starbuck, what are we gonna do?

:

01:17:52,632 --> 01:17:57,192

And she's just like, we're

gonna do what we always do.

:

01:17:57,492 --> 01:17:58,782

Fight 'em till we Oh,

:

01:17:59,532 --> 01:18:00,072

that, that,

:

01:18:00,072 --> 01:18:00,342

yeah.

:

01:18:00,492 --> 01:18:00,702

Yeah.

:

01:18:00,702 --> 01:18:01,122

That one.

:

01:18:01,182 --> 01:18:01,572

Yeah.

:

01:18:01,602 --> 01:18:05,172

Fight 'em till we can't, which is

the same thing that she said at.

:

01:18:05,997 --> 01:18:08,997

Sometime in the last episode, I think

maybe the beginning of this one.

:

01:18:08,997 --> 01:18:11,277

I don't, she said it recently.

:

01:18:11,337 --> 01:18:11,757

Yeah.

:

01:18:11,847 --> 01:18:12,447

Is a thing.

:

01:18:13,557 --> 01:18:14,877

And that's the episode.

:

01:18:15,627 --> 01:18:23,187

So on a scale of one to 13 colonies,

'cause we've got new caprica now,

:

01:18:23,831 --> 01:18:25,086

how do we feel about this episode?

:

01:18:25,922 --> 01:18:27,002

Laura: Guests go first.

:

01:18:27,277 --> 01:18:27,567

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

01:18:28,428 --> 01:18:30,018

Beth: I really hate Gaas,

:

01:18:30,648 --> 01:18:31,068

Laura: Same.

:

01:18:31,143 --> 01:18:31,223

Xhafer: em.

:

01:18:31,788 --> 01:18:35,808

Beth: but the writing in

this episode was exceptional.

:

01:18:37,308 --> 01:18:41,988

It really makes me wanna immediately

jump in and watch season three

:

01:18:42,708 --> 01:18:46,458

'cause I've never seen it before

and I'm like very fucking pumped.

:

01:18:47,028 --> 01:18:52,092

So I'm going to give this

a 13 OUTTA 13 colonies.

:

01:18:52,775 --> 01:18:52,865

Mm-hmm.

:

01:18:53,195 --> 01:18:55,445

Laura: I, I think I have

to be there with you.

:

01:18:55,715 --> 01:19:01,175

I mean, it is simultaneously, this

episode exists in a universe where it is

:

01:19:01,175 --> 01:19:05,075

both 13 colonies and fuck this episode.

:

01:19:05,375 --> 01:19:10,055

Like, but it is, fuck this

episode, because it is so good.

:

01:19:10,145 --> 01:19:11,255

Beth: Right.

:

01:19:12,095 --> 01:19:12,635

Laura: The,

:

01:19:12,690 --> 01:19:13,290

Xhafer: you feel the,

:

01:19:13,290 --> 01:19:13,450

things.

:

01:19:14,135 --> 01:19:15,485

Laura: the writing is good.

:

01:19:15,815 --> 01:19:16,775

The twist is

:

01:19:16,985 --> 01:19:17,495

Beth: Yes.

:

01:19:17,495 --> 01:19:17,585

Yes.

:

01:19:18,755 --> 01:19:22,715

Laura: I am now looking forward

to getting some fill in about

:

01:19:22,715 --> 01:19:24,575

what the hell happened in a year.

:

01:19:24,590 --> 01:19:24,880

Beth: Yeah.

:

01:19:24,880 --> 01:19:25,480

Yeah, yeah

:

01:19:26,165 --> 01:19:27,485

Laura: you know, what happened to Sharon?

:

01:19:27,485 --> 01:19:32,195

I guess probably the brothers cavel

have been interlocked, I guess I thought

:

01:19:32,375 --> 01:19:34,025

like, what if they're just down there?

:

01:19:34,025 --> 01:19:34,955

That would be wild.

:

01:19:36,020 --> 01:19:36,309

Beth: yeah.

:

01:19:36,800 --> 01:19:37,150

Right.

:

01:19:37,925 --> 01:19:42,530

Laura: And I wanna see Papa Dama shave

that mustache off and go back to work.

:

01:19:44,016 --> 01:19:47,046

So I, I am, I'm sold.

:

01:19:47,046 --> 01:19:51,066

I am in the 13th colony with you.

:

01:19:52,041 --> 01:19:54,171

Xhafer: Uh, I'm right there

with you both a hundred percent.

:

01:19:54,561 --> 01:19:59,451

This is probably my second favorite

episode of this whole show behind 33.

:

01:19:59,601 --> 01:20:00,951

This is fucking great.

:

01:20:01,476 --> 01:20:03,666

Beth: 33 was really fucking good.

:

01:20:03,846 --> 01:20:04,296

Laura: Mm-hmm.

:

01:20:05,107 --> 01:20:05,166

yeah,

:

01:20:05,797 --> 01:20:06,067

Beth: yeah,

:

01:20:06,217 --> 01:20:09,277

Laura: A, a real artwork,

like it is a masterpiece,

:

01:20:09,307 --> 01:20:09,597

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

01:20:11,076 --> 01:20:15,366

Laura: Jair said something last

episode that frightened me horribly

:

01:20:15,706 --> 01:20:16,166

Beth: oh, no.

:

01:20:17,076 --> 01:20:17,916

Laura: because

:

01:20:18,266 --> 01:20:18,425

Beth: you do?

:

01:20:19,626 --> 01:20:25,956

Laura: I was hoping within

my heart that this is it.

:

01:20:26,346 --> 01:20:31,175

Like this is the worst

Gaas could possibly be.

:

01:20:31,586 --> 01:20:31,806

Xhafer: Oh,

:

01:20:33,471 --> 01:20:33,741

Beth: But

:

01:20:34,146 --> 01:20:36,786

Laura: And then he's given

me the face right now

:

01:20:37,221 --> 01:20:37,401

Beth: Yeah.

:

01:20:37,401 --> 01:20:37,461

Oh

:

01:20:37,925 --> 01:20:40,026

Laura: and he said, oh,

in the way that he did,

:

01:20:40,406 --> 01:20:40,696

Beth: Yeah.

:

01:20:41,166 --> 01:20:47,526

Laura: and I'm afraid that Gaas is

going to somehow be worse than this.

:

01:20:48,081 --> 01:20:48,441

Beth: Yes.

:

01:20:48,776 --> 01:20:51,626

Xhafer: well, that's not something

we'll get an answer to anytime soon

:

01:20:52,814 --> 01:20:53,264

Laura: Great.

:

01:20:53,284 --> 01:20:56,464

Xhafer: week we've got our mider recap.

:

01:20:57,089 --> 01:21:01,659

So we'll, we're gonna take a break and

not watch an app and just talk about the

:

01:21:01,659 --> 01:21:03,699

first two seasons of Battlestar Galactica.

:

01:21:04,449 --> 01:21:07,898

We're gonna take two weeks

off from releasing episodes.

:

01:21:07,898 --> 01:21:13,509

We're still gonna record, um, just

to get some kind of buffer built up.

:

01:21:13,509 --> 01:21:13,689

Dear

:

01:21:13,794 --> 01:21:15,084

Laura: I would love to have a buffer.

:

01:21:15,489 --> 01:21:18,159

Xhafer: we, we, I mean, we do this

in between seasons of every show

:

01:21:18,159 --> 01:21:20,318

we've ever watched, all two of them.

:

01:21:20,829 --> 01:21:24,227

So, uh, pretty commonplace for

us to take that break in between

:

01:21:24,227 --> 01:21:26,416

seasons, just to give ourselves

a little bit of breathing room.

:

01:21:27,287 --> 01:21:32,867

So we're gonna take two weeks off and

then after that we will be back with, not

:

01:21:32,867 --> 01:21:38,597

season three episode one, but an episode

covering the resistance web episodes.

:

01:21:39,302 --> 01:21:40,172

So that would be fun.

:

01:21:40,757 --> 01:21:41,267

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:21:41,322 --> 01:21:44,777

Do you have any like tagline for those?

:

01:21:44,807 --> 01:21:47,027

I, I imagine it would be difficult to

:

01:21:47,312 --> 01:21:49,892

Xhafer: it's, it's like

eight, five minute episodes.

:

01:21:50,807 --> 01:21:51,107

Right.

:

01:21:51,137 --> 01:21:52,307

Or six or something.

:

01:21:52,577 --> 01:21:53,507

It's quick.

:

01:21:53,507 --> 01:21:55,217

It's shorter than a normal episode.

:

01:21:55,607 --> 01:22:01,547

Each one has their own little thing,

and I believe they take place in

:

01:22:01,547 --> 01:22:06,647

the, there's a, in like, there's a

little bit of a gap in between the

:

01:22:06,647 --> 01:22:10,787

end of season two and the start of

season three in like the time, right.

:

01:22:11,307 --> 01:22:13,977

So it takes place in there.

:

01:22:14,097 --> 01:22:14,577

So

:

01:22:15,237 --> 01:22:18,357

Laura: And we checked this out

last time after recording listener,

:

01:22:18,357 --> 01:22:20,487

they are available on YouTube.

:

01:22:20,487 --> 01:22:22,047

Xhafer: You can just go

watch 'em on YouTube.

:

01:22:22,467 --> 01:22:22,857

Laura: Yeah.

:

01:22:23,097 --> 01:22:25,377

If you were like, oh no,

where am I gonna find those?

:

01:22:25,377 --> 01:22:26,397

It's on the YouTubes my

:

01:22:26,712 --> 01:22:29,022

Xhafer: Yeah, there are a couple

different sets of Battlestar

:

01:22:29,022 --> 01:22:30,582

Galactica episodes that they did.

:

01:22:31,512 --> 01:22:37,362

Um, there's resistance, face of

the Enemy and razor episodes.

:

01:22:37,692 --> 01:22:41,172

We're doing the resistance right now,

so don't watch one of those other ones.

:

01:22:41,172 --> 01:22:43,302

Especially if you're a first time watcher.

:

01:22:43,512 --> 01:22:45,852

If you click the wrong one, you're

gonna see a bunch of shit that

:

01:22:45,852 --> 01:22:48,672

shouldn't, so don't do that.

:

01:22:49,192 --> 01:22:50,662

I mean, unless, unless

you fucking want to.

:

01:22:50,662 --> 01:22:50,932

I don't know.

:

01:22:50,932 --> 01:22:52,402

I'm not gonna tell you how to enjoy media.

:

01:22:52,552 --> 01:22:53,122

Fuck it.

:

01:22:53,842 --> 01:22:59,122

It's the guy who co-hosts a podcast

where we roll dice and skip episodes.

:

01:22:59,122 --> 01:23:01,942

Gonna lecture you on how to

properly watch a TV show.

:

01:23:02,122 --> 01:23:03,322

Fucking never.

:

01:23:03,472 --> 01:23:05,002

That's never happening.

:

01:23:05,032 --> 01:23:05,992

I have seated.

:

01:23:06,382 --> 01:23:07,102

All right.

:

01:23:07,102 --> 01:23:08,332

To speak on the matter,

:

01:23:08,812 --> 01:23:10,882

Beth: Free Will is wild.

:

01:23:12,163 --> 01:23:15,077

Laura: It's, it's a thing

sometimes it's a bitch.

:

01:23:15,858 --> 01:23:16,638

Beth: Jesus Christ.

:

01:23:16,638 --> 01:23:17,238

No kidding.

:

01:23:18,123 --> 01:23:18,243

Xhafer: I,

:

01:23:18,588 --> 01:23:21,708

Beth: but if in between,

in that break time.

:

01:23:22,938 --> 01:23:26,118

You're looking for another podcast,

you're like, man, I don't have

:

01:23:26,118 --> 01:23:27,318

any episodes of, who are You?

:

01:23:27,348 --> 01:23:29,327

'cause 'cause there's a little breaky.

:

01:23:29,928 --> 01:23:31,608

What, what are you gonna listen to?

:

01:23:31,728 --> 01:23:34,308

Come on over and listen to Cool Girls.

:

01:23:34,308 --> 01:23:39,798

Don't look at Explosions where we

watch dude TV and make fun of it.

:

01:23:40,893 --> 01:23:42,573

Laura: And as quickly as possible,

:

01:23:42,708 --> 01:23:43,368

Beth: as quickly as

:

01:23:43,368 --> 01:23:44,148

possible.

:

01:23:44,178 --> 01:23:45,588

'cause we do not wanna watch it.

:

01:23:46,113 --> 01:23:47,733

Laura: because Woof

:

01:23:48,528 --> 01:23:48,888

Beth: Yeah.

:

01:23:48,948 --> 01:23:49,608

It's rough.

:

01:23:49,888 --> 01:23:51,148

Laura: Walker, Texas Ranger,

:

01:23:55,032 --> 01:23:55,243

Xhafer: yeah.

:

01:23:55,243 --> 01:23:58,153

LTO will also be running

during that break.

:

01:23:58,153 --> 01:24:02,743

So if you wanna listen to Ben Vic

and I talk about alias, feel free.

:

01:24:02,943 --> 01:24:03,233

Laura: yeah.

:

01:24:03,993 --> 01:24:09,073

Probably better TV over there,

but great conversations at both.

:

01:24:09,678 --> 01:24:14,623

Beth: yes, if you just wanna, if you

just wanna hang out with some, some cool

:

01:24:14,623 --> 01:24:17,607

ladies who don't look at explosions.

:

01:24:18,227 --> 01:24:19,057

Laura: We'll be your cool

:

01:24:19,077 --> 01:24:19,166

Beth: out.

:

01:24:19,887 --> 01:24:20,037

Yeah.

:

01:24:20,932 --> 01:24:24,719

Xhafer: I gotta say thank

you to Jeremy Siegel, right?

:

01:24:25,049 --> 01:24:25,594

Theme music.

Xhafer: bands,

01:24:38,139 --> 01:24:41,499

Laura: Thanks to Angry Deck time machine

on Instagram for the podcast artwork

:

01:24:41,799 --> 01:24:43,659

and Jair, we did a very bad thing.

:

01:24:44,124 --> 01:24:44,574

Xhafer: what do we do?

:

01:24:45,339 --> 01:24:49,239

Laura: And the last episode,

we forgot to thank the editor.

:

01:24:49,925 --> 01:24:51,246

Xhafer: Oh, fuck me.

:

01:24:51,812 --> 01:24:52,772

Sorry Aaron.

:

01:24:53,312 --> 01:24:55,052

I know you had to rush

to put that one out.

:

01:24:55,052 --> 01:24:55,202

I know.

:

01:24:55,202 --> 01:24:56,252

You gotta rush to put this

:

01:24:56,297 --> 01:24:59,507

Laura: Yeah, it was like the

one time we really needed to

:

01:24:59,507 --> 01:25:00,947

thank the editor and we didn't.

:

01:25:02,762 --> 01:25:03,302

Xhafer: whoops.

:

01:25:03,647 --> 01:25:04,907

Laura: We were so rushed.

:

01:25:05,117 --> 01:25:08,027

We forgot to thank the

editor Oopsie Doodle,

:

01:25:08,462 --> 01:25:09,512

Xhafer: the words, thank you.

:

01:25:09,512 --> 01:25:12,692

Might forget to leave my lips

sometimes, Aaron, but know

:

01:25:12,692 --> 01:25:14,912

that they never leave my heart.

:

01:25:14,912 --> 01:25:19,472

I am forever grateful to you for

editing this podcast and making

:

01:25:19,472 --> 01:25:21,062

sure that I don't fucking have to.

:

01:25:21,422 --> 01:25:23,852

So thank you so much for that.

:

01:25:24,523 --> 01:25:26,623

Laura: and thanks listener

for being here with us.

:

01:25:26,623 --> 01:25:28,723

Thanks, Beth, for joining us.

:

01:25:28,723 --> 01:25:29,202

This was

:

01:25:29,498 --> 01:25:31,157

Beth: for having me.

:

01:25:31,848 --> 01:25:32,358

Thank you.

:

01:25:33,268 --> 01:25:34,238

This was amazing.

:

01:25:35,233 --> 01:25:39,823

Laura: I, I love your appearances because

it's the dramatic episode and we all

:

01:25:39,823 --> 01:25:44,473

get to be silly and dramatic together,

and that's all I want in my life really.

:

01:25:45,373 --> 01:25:49,032

Beth: I just enjoy hanging out with

both of you as much as possible

:

01:25:49,379 --> 01:25:51,869

Xhafer: Speaking of which

uh, let's go ahead and stop

:

01:25:51,869 --> 01:25:53,489

recording and go the fuck to bed.

:

01:25:53,489 --> 01:25:54,329

Does that sound good?

:

01:25:56,624 --> 01:25:57,704

Beth: Uh, yeah.

:

01:25:58,064 --> 01:25:59,294

Laura: I love you.

:

01:25:59,689 --> 01:26:00,404

Beth: love you.

:

01:26:00,404 --> 01:26:00,464

too.

:

01:26:00,464 --> 01:26:00,644

Goodnight.

:

01:26:00,764 --> 01:26:01,124

Laura: Buy

:

01:26:01,889 --> 01:26:02,159

Xhafer: Bye.

:

01:26:18,502 --> 01:26:19,132

Laura: Don't be

:

01:26:19,177 --> 01:26:20,117

Xhafer: be suspicious.

:

01:26:20,887 --> 01:26:21,877

Don't be suspicious.

:

01:26:22,177 --> 01:26:23,677

Or don't be suspicious.

:

01:26:24,287 --> 01:26:25,317

Don't be suspicious.

:

01:26:25,537 --> 01:26:27,037

Or don't be suspicious.

:

01:26:27,727 --> 01:26:28,717

Don't be suspicious.

:
