Okay, 47 00:02:19,674 --> 00:02:21,674 Speaker 1: Well that would indicate that it's indeed, boy, it is 48 00:02:21,874 --> 00:02:23,034 Speaker 1: such a good show. 49 00:02:23,154 --> 00:02:25,154 Speaker 2: It's been out forever, but this is the last and 50 00:02:25,194 --> 00:02:29,434 Speaker 2: final season, season five. If you've watched it up until now, 51 00:02:29,474 --> 00:02:32,554 Speaker 2: you know that season five is going to be massive. 52 00:02:32,634 --> 00:02:35,474 Speaker 2: It's premiered with two episodes so far, and then they're 53 00:02:35,474 --> 00:02:39,074 Speaker 2: going to be doing a weekly drop. It is so funny, 54 00:02:39,354 --> 00:02:42,474 Speaker 2: so violent, and so gruesome. So if you don't know 55 00:02:42,514 --> 00:02:45,194 Speaker 2: anything about the Boys, I mean, this won't make sense, 56 00:02:45,194 --> 00:02:47,314 Speaker 2: but I'll tell you about the whole show in general. 57 00:02:47,594 --> 00:02:50,114 Speaker 2: It's about the idea that if you have these like 58 00:02:50,314 --> 00:02:54,634 Speaker 2: crazy superheroes, kind of like Avenger superheroes, but they're not good, 59 00:02:55,314 --> 00:02:57,034 Speaker 2: Like they're not using their powers for good. 60 00:02:57,234 --> 00:02:58,514 Speaker 1: And it's kind of like a. 61 00:02:58,474 --> 00:03:00,914 Speaker 3: Bit like Ben Ten but the other the bad aliens. 62 00:03:01,354 --> 00:03:03,353 Speaker 3: But they're not aliens, are they They're just boys. 63 00:03:03,394 --> 00:03:05,794 Speaker 2: They're not aliens. Okay, they're just like these superheroes. So 64 00:03:05,834 --> 00:03:08,954 Speaker 2: it's very similar to like the concept of Avengers, but like, 65 00:03:09,154 --> 00:03:11,514 Speaker 2: what would happen if like Captain America had a low 66 00:03:11,554 --> 00:03:14,434 Speaker 2: superpowers and he's like, I'm actually gonna abuse this power. 67 00:03:14,634 --> 00:03:16,274 Speaker 1: Oh not good, and what would happen to the world. 68 00:03:16,274 --> 00:03:19,554 Speaker 2: So's it shows like the big divide of like people 69 00:03:19,554 --> 00:03:22,274 Speaker 2: who don't have superpowers and people who ask they're. 70 00:03:22,074 --> 00:03:25,554 Speaker 1: Called soups, and if they're called soups, and. 71 00:03:25,554 --> 00:03:28,314 Speaker 2: It goes into like politics, it's a big parody on 72 00:03:28,394 --> 00:03:32,314 Speaker 2: American politics. And this season, the creators of the Boy said, 73 00:03:32,354 --> 00:03:35,154 Speaker 2: it's getting harder and harder to parody American politics because 74 00:03:35,154 --> 00:03:36,274 Speaker 2: a lot of it's becoming true. 75 00:03:36,514 --> 00:03:38,474 Speaker 1: Oh wow, I think they're like, we wrote this is 76 00:03:38,514 --> 00:03:40,354 Speaker 1: like a bad idea that would never happen, and now 77 00:03:40,474 --> 00:03:41,114 Speaker 1: and it's happening. 78 00:03:41,154 --> 00:03:44,154 Speaker 2: So it's like showing these like guys with superpowers and 79 00:03:44,194 --> 00:03:47,234 Speaker 2: how they also have influence over politics and the billionaires 80 00:03:47,314 --> 00:03:50,234 Speaker 2: and the riches of the riches. It's done so so well, 81 00:03:50,234 --> 00:03:53,314 Speaker 2: but it is really bloody and gruesome, so it's not 82 00:03:53,354 --> 00:03:55,714 Speaker 2: a superhero show four kids, so it's not like one 83 00:03:55,714 --> 00:03:56,314 Speaker 2: of those families. 84 00:03:56,314 --> 00:03:59,434 Speaker 1: So it's definitely for adults. It's just so well done. 85 00:03:59,514 --> 00:04:02,074 Speaker 2: It's so clever, and I'm really sad it's the last season, 86 00:04:02,194 --> 00:04:04,354 Speaker 2: but I'm so so excited. 87 00:04:04,034 --> 00:04:05,874 Speaker 3: And this is season five.

It was a movie. 116 00:05:04,834 --> 00:05:07,034 Speaker 3: That when I saw the trailer, I thought, this is 117 00:05:07,274 --> 00:05:09,354 Speaker 3: me more of a Me movie than an Emily movie. 118 00:05:09,633 --> 00:05:11,113 Speaker 1: Yes, I thought the same thing. 119 00:05:11,313 --> 00:05:13,153 Speaker 3: This is a Venetia movie because I think I have 120 00:05:13,193 --> 00:05:15,074 Speaker 3: a greater propensity for cheese than you do. 121 00:05:15,474 --> 00:05:16,794 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not food. 122 00:05:17,034 --> 00:05:19,593 Speaker 2: I mean I literally just recommended The Boys. So I 123 00:05:19,633 --> 00:05:23,193 Speaker 2: think we've all established that my taste in movies is 124 00:05:23,313 --> 00:05:24,753 Speaker 2: of a nine year old child. 125 00:05:24,993 --> 00:05:26,073 Speaker 1: But you gave it a red hot go. 126 00:05:26,193 --> 00:05:30,313 Speaker 3: So this recommendation is for some people who appreciate a 127 00:05:30,354 --> 00:05:34,593 Speaker 3: good kind of like cheesy, escapist rom com, a step 128 00:05:34,674 --> 00:05:36,433 Speaker 3: up from like a straight to Netflix rom com, like 129 00:05:36,433 --> 00:05:38,433 Speaker 3: you can go to the cinema see it's beautifully shot. 130 00:05:38,753 --> 00:05:40,234 Speaker 1: Laura has spoken to the car. 131 00:05:40,193 --> 00:05:43,273 Speaker 3: So she's spoken to Reggae Jean Page and Halle Bailey. 132 00:05:43,794 --> 00:05:44,794 Speaker 1: We had them on the pod. 133 00:05:44,873 --> 00:05:46,833 Speaker 3: If you haven't listened to that episode, we'll link it 134 00:05:46,834 --> 00:05:48,954 Speaker 3: in the show notes because it was very funny her 135 00:05:49,034 --> 00:05:51,633 Speaker 3: retelling her interview tale of how she spoke to them. 136 00:05:52,073 --> 00:05:54,753 Speaker 3: So yeah, stars Halle Bailey, who would know from the 137 00:05:54,794 --> 00:05:57,354 Speaker 3: live action Little Mermaid and Reggae. We obviously know of 138 00:05:57,474 --> 00:06:00,953 Speaker 3: the Duke from Bridgeton season one. It's set in Tuscany 139 00:06:00,993 --> 00:06:03,993 Speaker 3: in Italy. The tagline is she came for the pasta 140 00:06:04,073 --> 00:06:06,434 Speaker 3: and got lost in the sauce is that. 141 00:06:06,433 --> 00:06:10,513 Speaker 1: The taglar which I read that and I was like, interesting, 142 00:06:10,633 --> 00:06:12,794 Speaker 1: she didn't need past her once in the movie, did 143 00:06:12,834 --> 00:06:13,073 Speaker 1: she not? 144 00:06:13,154 --> 00:06:16,433 Speaker 3: Because interestingly in the interview with Laura she spoke about 145 00:06:16,433 --> 00:06:19,714 Speaker 3: how on set she learnt to make Cachiao pepe from scratch. 146 00:06:19,993 --> 00:06:21,354 Speaker 1: Well she didn't, Well she did? 147 00:06:21,393 --> 00:06:23,473 Speaker 3: That was a lie anyway, No, maybe she did in 148 00:06:23,474 --> 00:06:26,073 Speaker 3: her own time. So the premise is that Hallie Bailey 149 00:06:26,113 --> 00:06:28,714 Speaker 3: plays Anna. She is a young woman who's a little 150 00:06:28,714 --> 00:06:29,633 Speaker 3: bit like lost in life. 151 00:06:29,674 --> 00:06:31,633 Speaker 1: I thought her age was a little bit unclear in 152 00:06:31,633 --> 00:06:31,954 Speaker 1: the movie. 153 00:06:31,953 --> 00:06:33,313 Speaker 3: I couldn't tell if she was meant to be like 154 00:06:33,354 --> 00:06:35,194 Speaker 3: mid twenties or like in her thirties, and she still 155 00:06:35,234 --> 00:06:36,034 Speaker 3: hasn't figured it out. 156 00:06:36,393 --> 00:06:39,914 Speaker 1: Oh that's Oh, that's such a good point. What did 157 00:06:39,953 --> 00:06:41,313 Speaker 1: you think of her as. 158 00:06:41,034 --> 00:06:44,073 Speaker 2: I thought of her as like early thirties, But I 159 00:06:44,234 --> 00:06:45,714 Speaker 2: just relate everyone to myself. 160 00:06:46,154 --> 00:06:49,993 Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe I'm picturing myself in her. I thought maybe 161 00:06:50,113 --> 00:06:54,154 Speaker 1: like thirty max, Yeah, maybe like mid to late twenties. Yeah, 162 00:06:54,154 --> 00:06:55,394 Speaker 1: that's kind of the vibe that I was getting. 163 00:06:55,594 --> 00:06:58,313 Speaker 3: Because she did culinary school and she dropped it and 164 00:06:58,354 --> 00:06:59,034 Speaker 3: she dropped out. 165 00:06:59,274 --> 00:07:02,474 Speaker 1: Yeah, but culinary school undergrad prosgram. I don't know, I 166 00:07:02,513 --> 00:07:04,034 Speaker 1: don't know, we don't know anything played. 167 00:07:04,674 --> 00:07:07,073 Speaker 3: So anyway, she's house sitting to pay the bills. She's 168 00:07:07,113 --> 00:07:09,954 Speaker 3: culinary school dropout.

So Handmaid's Tale was written by Margaret Atwood. 280 00:11:43,954 --> 00:11:46,234 Speaker 2: This show, The Testament is based off her second book 281 00:11:46,234 --> 00:11:49,034 Speaker 2: of the same name, and it's set fifteen years after 282 00:11:49,114 --> 00:11:52,914 Speaker 2: the Handmaid's Tale takes place. Also someone who starts in 283 00:11:52,914 --> 00:11:54,754 Speaker 2: The Handmaid's Tale a little bit Moss. She's like the 284 00:11:54,794 --> 00:11:55,994 Speaker 2: main character. She plays June. 285 00:11:56,154 --> 00:11:58,794 Speaker 1: She's an executive producer for this show as well. Oh, 286 00:11:58,874 --> 00:12:01,594 Speaker 1: I really like her And is this one about her daughter? Yes? 287 00:12:01,754 --> 00:12:03,514 Speaker 2: So this is about her daughter. So if you watch 288 00:12:03,554 --> 00:12:07,114 Speaker 2: The Handmaid's Tale, I promise you you will love this show. 289 00:12:07,114 --> 00:12:10,194 Speaker 2: So it's premiered with three episodes so far. I watched 290 00:12:10,194 --> 00:12:14,674 Speaker 2: all three in one day, okay, and I am so obsessed. 291 00:12:14,714 --> 00:12:16,634 Speaker 2: I think they're going to be doing weekly drops after 292 00:12:16,994 --> 00:12:20,714 Speaker 2: this week. It starts Chase Infinity, who is a breakout 293 00:12:20,754 --> 00:12:23,634 Speaker 2: staff from one battle after another and she is excellent 294 00:12:23,714 --> 00:12:28,074 Speaker 2: in this. So Chase plays Agnes, who is June's daughter, 295 00:12:28,394 --> 00:12:30,514 Speaker 2: And if you watch ham Midstail at the end, you 296 00:12:30,634 --> 00:12:35,194 Speaker 2: know that June escapes and tries to overthrow Gilliad, but 297 00:12:35,354 --> 00:12:37,434 Speaker 2: she doesn't end up saving her daughter at the end. 298 00:12:37,514 --> 00:12:40,074 Speaker 2: So now it's been fifteen years later and you can 299 00:12:40,114 --> 00:12:43,514 Speaker 2: see Agnes is still in Gilead and it's all from 300 00:12:43,554 --> 00:12:47,514 Speaker 2: her perspective. She makes a friend named Daisy, who's kind 301 00:12:47,554 --> 00:12:50,074 Speaker 2: of like a new recruitment into Gilead because they're now 302 00:12:50,074 --> 00:12:55,634 Speaker 2: recruiting young fertile girls to have babies to keep Gillad running. 303 00:12:55,714 --> 00:12:57,594 Speaker 1: What an ad?

It feels like it's going 310 00:13:14,874 --> 00:13:16,194 Speaker 2: to be more mystery. 311 00:13:16,554 --> 00:13:16,794 Speaker 1: Okay. 312 00:13:16,794 --> 00:13:19,194 Speaker 3: Well I read that it's a little bit more lighthearted 313 00:13:19,194 --> 00:13:20,034 Speaker 3: and not as dark. 314 00:13:20,154 --> 00:13:23,234 Speaker 1: Is that true?
