Anyway, that's not what we're although a great. 52 00:02:27,674 --> 00:02:29,714 Speaker 1: Child though, you should also watch broad City. You also 53 00:02:29,754 --> 00:02:32,633 Speaker 1: watch broad City. We have done something that no one 54 00:02:32,714 --> 00:02:35,834 Speaker 1: has ever done, executing a tour of this size. It's 55 00:02:35,954 --> 00:02:37,674 Speaker 1: mind boggling. How do we do this? 56 00:02:37,794 --> 00:02:38,554 Speaker 2: Oh my god. 57 00:02:39,434 --> 00:02:41,194 Speaker 1: We had to be all hands on deck to put 58 00:02:41,234 --> 00:02:43,994 Speaker 1: in a brand new era into the show. Bringing out 59 00:02:44,034 --> 00:02:48,594 Speaker 1: special guests is something that I really enjoy every single night. 60 00:02:48,834 --> 00:02:50,994 Speaker 1: We're going to do everything in our power to blow 61 00:02:51,034 --> 00:02:51,394 Speaker 1: your mind. 62 00:02:52,154 --> 00:02:56,474 Speaker 2: So the six part series is out tonight. It basically 63 00:02:56,674 --> 00:02:59,314 Speaker 2: goes through the making of the Era's tour, but I 64 00:02:59,314 --> 00:03:02,474 Speaker 2: think it also follows her more personally, like you're seeing 65 00:03:02,474 --> 00:03:05,274 Speaker 2: her on calls with Travis, You're seeing her talking about 66 00:03:05,274 --> 00:03:07,634 Speaker 2: her mom. I think it has like a simil edit 67 00:03:07,754 --> 00:03:10,754 Speaker 2: to Miss Americanah, but it goes more into like the 68 00:03:10,794 --> 00:03:14,594 Speaker 2: professional and like the work ethic and the behind the scenes. 69 00:03:14,794 --> 00:03:17,874 Speaker 2: They called it like an unprecedented look behind the scenes 70 00:03:18,274 --> 00:03:19,394 Speaker 2: of the Aras. 71 00:03:18,994 --> 00:03:21,434 Speaker 1: Tour, which I actually think that's true because as much 72 00:03:21,434 --> 00:03:25,154 Speaker 1: as we've seen the filmed stage show, that is still 73 00:03:25,274 --> 00:03:27,714 Speaker 1: very much just like the concert that we saw. If 74 00:03:27,714 --> 00:03:29,234 Speaker 1: you got tickets, which I know you didn't. Sorry to 75 00:03:29,234 --> 00:03:31,954 Speaker 1: bring it up. This is behind the scenes. It's fall 76 00:03:31,994 --> 00:03:34,554 Speaker 1: and documentary style, and I'm so excited for this because 77 00:03:34,674 --> 00:03:37,354 Speaker 1: I am so fascinated by the workings of the RAS tour, 78 00:03:37,794 --> 00:03:40,314 Speaker 1: how they pull it together, what she does behind the scenes. 79 00:03:40,554 --> 00:03:43,114 Speaker 1: We've seen snippets that it not only follows the creation 80 00:03:43,194 --> 00:03:46,754 Speaker 1: of the tour, but it follows like how the dancers prepare, 81 00:03:46,794 --> 00:03:49,354 Speaker 1: how the stage is, the mechanics and the logistics. I 82 00:03:49,474 --> 00:03:51,514 Speaker 1: love that stuff. How she interacts with her family and 83 00:03:51,514 --> 00:03:53,434 Speaker 1: her friends and Travis and the guests that she has 84 00:03:53,474 --> 00:03:55,154 Speaker 1: on set, and how she interruts with the guests, and 85 00:03:55,194 --> 00:03:57,114 Speaker 1: what she does when she gets back to her hotel 86 00:03:57,194 --> 00:04:00,914 Speaker 1: room after performing for thousands of people. I'm so fascinated 87 00:04:00,914 --> 00:04:02,554 Speaker 1: by that.

Alexander 181 00:07:29,834 --> 00:07:32,634 Speaker 1: da Daria was also in them. I quite liked those movies, 182 00:07:32,634 --> 00:07:34,473 Speaker 1: but I understand my fans of the books were like, 183 00:07:35,154 --> 00:07:37,034 Speaker 1: this is when we pictured like the characters meant to 184 00:07:37,034 --> 00:07:39,634 Speaker 1: be younger. There's more intricacies of the story. 185 00:07:39,794 --> 00:07:42,034 Speaker 3: And so other teenagers. 186 00:07:42,314 --> 00:07:44,474 Speaker 1: Well they kind of looked a bit older in the movie. Anyway, 187 00:07:44,674 --> 00:07:47,514 Speaker 1: they aged them down for the series. So anyway, because 188 00:07:47,514 --> 00:07:50,554 Speaker 1: this is such a huge, popular and beloved book series. 189 00:07:50,834 --> 00:07:53,394 Speaker 1: They then wait and made a series for Disney Plus 190 00:07:53,434 --> 00:07:56,114 Speaker 1: and the second season.

Okay. So, Percy Jackson, 221 00:09:13,634 --> 00:09:15,194 Speaker 1: we learned in the first books and also in the 222 00:09:15,194 --> 00:09:17,994 Speaker 1: first series. He's this young teen and he's got like 223 00:09:18,074 --> 00:09:20,234 Speaker 1: a lot of kind of problems at school, doesn't really 224 00:09:20,274 --> 00:09:22,754 Speaker 1: fit in, his dyslexic, has got ADHD. He can't sort 225 00:09:22,794 --> 00:09:25,554 Speaker 1: of figure out who he is until he learns that 226 00:09:25,634 --> 00:09:28,114 Speaker 1: he is not just a human. He is half human 227 00:09:28,394 --> 00:09:33,674 Speaker 1: and half Greek god dad. His dad is the sea 228 00:09:33,674 --> 00:09:37,154 Speaker 1: god Poseidon. Oh you don't know this. Haven't you read 229 00:09:37,194 --> 00:09:37,474 Speaker 1: the book? 230 00:09:37,594 --> 00:09:39,034 Speaker 3: Where does Aquaman fall into this? 231 00:09:39,074 --> 00:09:42,834 Speaker 1: Aquaman's not in this bloody that's marvel S. No, it's DC. 232 00:09:43,114 --> 00:09:47,514 Speaker 1: What do you mean that's one step away Jackson separate? 233 00:09:48,074 --> 00:09:49,994 Speaker 3: Oh my god, I thought it was part of DC. 234 00:09:50,274 --> 00:09:52,274 Speaker 1: It's its own book series. It's not part of a 235 00:09:52,314 --> 00:09:56,714 Speaker 1: comic book series. Okay, So Jason Marmoa not in this Okay, 236 00:09:56,794 --> 00:10:01,794 Speaker 1: that's not meant to share. It's a completely different law. Okay, Well, 237 00:10:01,834 --> 00:10:05,634 Speaker 1: I just because because Aquaman's not in Persie Jackson, That's 238 00:10:05,634 --> 00:10:08,714 Speaker 1: why I asked. Now, I don't. So he finds out 239 00:10:08,794 --> 00:10:12,554 Speaker 1: that he has all these incredible abilities and the sad work. Yes, 240 00:10:12,594 --> 00:10:15,874 Speaker 1: ask you a question. Can humans have sex with gods? Yes, 241 00:10:16,274 --> 00:10:18,554 Speaker 1: that is a huge part of Greek mythology. That's where 242 00:10:18,554 --> 00:10:19,554 Speaker 1: Hercules came from. 243 00:10:19,834 --> 00:10:23,114 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, and I've never question that before now, yeah, 244 00:10:23,114 --> 00:10:23,994 Speaker 2: but I probably should have. 245 00:10:24,154 --> 00:10:26,953 Speaker 1: So the whole point of this Children's universe is that 246 00:10:26,994 --> 00:10:29,953 Speaker 1: all the Greek gods, like the Mighty Greek Gods, come 247 00:10:29,994 --> 00:10:32,674 Speaker 1: down to Earth, have sex with humans. Sometimes they fall 248 00:10:32,674 --> 00:10:34,594 Speaker 1: in love with them, sometimes they don't. And they have 249 00:10:34,714 --> 00:10:36,874 Speaker 1: all of these children that are half bloods, with which 250 00:10:36,914 --> 00:10:39,474 Speaker 1: Percy Jackson is. And so he finds out that's the 251 00:10:39,514 --> 00:10:41,554 Speaker 1: reason he can see things that other people can't see, 252 00:10:41,554 --> 00:10:43,434 Speaker 1: and he has these powers, and then he goes to 253 00:10:43,474 --> 00:10:44,434 Speaker 1: the half blood camp. 254 00:10:44,794 --> 00:10:45,754 Speaker 3: The half blood Camp. 255 00:10:46,074 --> 00:10:47,954 Speaker 1: Okay, I can't believe you said to me. I know, 256 00:10:48,034 --> 00:10:54,434 Speaker 1: what can I tell you? Baldemort Aquaman Harry Potter not 257 00:10:54,514 --> 00:10:57,834 Speaker 1: in this book series, Okay, Okay, moving round along from that. So, yes, 258 00:10:57,874 --> 00:11:01,074 Speaker 1: Percy Jackson goes to Camp Half Blood and that's like 259 00:11:01,114 --> 00:11:03,434 Speaker 1: in the first season following his story there. There he 260 00:11:03,474 --> 00:11:06,314 Speaker 1: also meets Annabeth Chase, who is the half daughter of Athena, 261 00:11:06,794 --> 00:11:08,194 Speaker 1: and the whole all book series of them going on 262 00:11:08,234 --> 00:11:10,954 Speaker 1: adventures together, which is what the Disney Plus series is 263 00:11:10,994 --> 00:11:11,594 Speaker 1: also about. 264 00:11:11,954 --> 00:11:13,754 Speaker 3: So are they like boyfriend and girlfriends? 265 00:11:14,034 --> 00:11:16,794 Speaker 1: Well, things do progress in a way, So. 266 00:11:16,754 --> 00:11:18,834 Speaker 3: Then will their children be full God? 267 00:11:19,994 --> 00:11:22,234 Speaker 1: It just get not the point of the book. But no, 268 00:11:22,554 --> 00:11:24,754 Speaker 1: the children would be then I guess, like I like 269 00:11:24,794 --> 00:11:26,473 Speaker 1: that a third. 270 00:11:26,354 --> 00:11:28,874 Speaker 3: But they're both halves. Yeah, so the children be a 271 00:11:28,914 --> 00:11:30,074 Speaker 3: full god and full human. 272 00:11:30,234 --> 00:11:32,194 Speaker 1: I just want to say, like the genetics of children 273 00:11:32,234 --> 00:11:34,274 Speaker 1: breeding with gods or something, and I'm super versed in 274 00:11:34,394 --> 00:11:35,954 Speaker 1: but I guess they would be hard to they would 275 00:11:35,994 --> 00:11:38,714 Speaker 1: still have power. I can't imagine what that person doesn't 276 00:11:38,754 --> 00:11:44,674 Speaker 1: the free time. But anyway, it's a really delightful series. 277 00:11:44,794 --> 00:11:48,154 Speaker 1: The world building is incredible, and I think because they 278 00:11:48,154 --> 00:11:51,314 Speaker 1: go on these crazy adventures, right, these half god half 279 00:11:51,394 --> 00:11:55,154 Speaker 1: human children and they fight different like monsters from Greek mythology, 280 00:11:55,154 --> 00:11:57,514 Speaker 1: and they go on adventures and it's just a really 281 00:11:57,554 --> 00:11:59,953 Speaker 1: fun time. And I think also for people who love 282 00:12:00,034 --> 00:12:01,834 Speaker 1: the books. A lot of people did love the movies, 283 00:12:02,234 --> 00:12:03,953 Speaker 1: but some people who love the books found the movie 284 00:12:04,034 --> 00:12:05,554 Speaker 1: is like a little bit jarring, and I feel like 285 00:12:05,674 --> 00:12:07,714 Speaker 1: then the TV series might be for you. And it's 286 00:12:07,714 --> 00:12:09,634 Speaker 1: become such a huge thing. There's also a podcast you 287 00:12:09,674 --> 00:12:12,794 Speaker 1: can listen to through Disney Plus. The Percy Jackson Podcast 288 00:12:12,954 --> 00:12:16,274 Speaker 1: is like the Companion series. It's a universe Emily. 289 00:12:16,514 --> 00:12:17,154 Speaker 4: They have done it. 290 00:12:17,554 --> 00:12:22,514 Speaker 1: I don't recommend it, and the charts is like the 291 00:12:22,594 --> 00:12:25,874 Speaker 1: Spill the Percy Jackson Official podcast. Maybe we should do 292 00:12:25,914 --> 00:12:28,874 Speaker 1: a crossover with them. That's why you can ask these questions. 293 00:12:29,354 --> 00:12:32,674 Speaker 1: They will know the answers to this, to interhuman breeding. 294 00:12:32,554 --> 00:12:34,834 Speaker 3: How do we get in touch?

George Clooney is great in it. 365 00:15:45,954 --> 00:15:47,954 Speaker 1: A lot of people are saying he might win an Oscar, 366 00:15:48,234 --> 00:15:50,874 Speaker 1: but he's gonna have to beat Timothy Chalamay, he's gonna 367 00:15:50,914 --> 00:15:52,914 Speaker 1: have to beat Leonardo dicapperro He's gonna have to meet 368 00:15:52,914 --> 00:15:55,354 Speaker 1: Michael B. Jordans, so I don't know if he's gonna 369 00:15:55,634 --> 00:15:58,274 Speaker 1: get in there. But also Adam Sandler's really good in it. 370 00:15:58,274 --> 00:16:00,034 Speaker 1: And I know I'm biased because I love Adam Sandler, 371 00:16:00,394 --> 00:16:02,154 Speaker 1: but he's a great dramatic actor. 372 00:16:02,234 --> 00:16:03,394 Speaker 3: Yeah, he actually is. 373 00:16:03,674 --> 00:16:06,314 Speaker 1: And Laura Durns in this too, She's incredible, like in 374 00:16:06,394 --> 00:16:09,274 Speaker 1: this publicist role. She does so well, Like Noah Bomback 375 00:16:09,394 --> 00:16:12,314 Speaker 1: just really knows how to write scenot through this. 376 00:16:12,354 --> 00:16:13,114 Speaker 3: Where do I watch it? 377 00:16:13,274 --> 00:16:15,274 Speaker 1: I was on Netflix, Okay, So it did have a 378 00:16:15,354 --> 00:16:18,274 Speaker 1: run in cinemas. So for Netflix movies, they need to 379 00:16:18,514 --> 00:16:20,274 Speaker 1: be in a certain amount of cinemas for a certain 380 00:16:20,274 --> 00:16:22,514 Speaker 1: amount of time to qualify for the Oscars. And so 381 00:16:22,674 --> 00:16:25,274 Speaker 1: every year Netflix has like their big Oscar movies, So 382 00:16:25,354 --> 00:16:27,714 Speaker 1: this year it's Jay Kelly. It did kind of miss 383 00:16:27,754 --> 00:16:30,274 Speaker 1: a few categories in the Golden Globes, but it'll be 384 00:16:30,274 --> 00:16:32,674 Speaker 1: interesting to see how it goes in the Oscars, because 385 00:16:32,674 --> 00:16:34,354 Speaker 1: I think it is going to get like nominated in 386 00:16:34,394 --> 00:16:36,994 Speaker 1: a few different categories. So it dropped on Netflix last 387 00:16:37,034 --> 00:16:39,794 Speaker 1: Friday night. Like, there's been a lot of praise for it, 388 00:16:39,874 --> 00:16:42,114 Speaker 1: in particular for George Clooney and him as this kind 389 00:16:42,114 --> 00:16:44,794 Speaker 1: of fading Hollywood star in his dramatic turn, and also 390 00:16:44,834 --> 00:16:47,474 Speaker 1: for Adam Sandler, and obviously everyone's raving about Laura Dean. 391 00:16:48,154 --> 00:16:51,034 Speaker 1: The criticism has been that sometimes it's a bit uneven 392 00:16:51,034 --> 00:16:54,154 Speaker 1: and it's storytelling and it like goes into weird emotional areas. 393 00:16:54,514 --> 00:16:56,554 Speaker 1: I think that's sort of like a personal preference thing, 394 00:16:57,034 --> 00:16:58,874 Speaker 1: whether you'll like it or not. And it does have 395 00:16:58,954 --> 00:17:01,434 Speaker 1: these kind of lingering scenes where it's like George Clooney's 396 00:17:01,514 --> 00:17:04,474 Speaker 1: character kind of reminiscing on moments in his life and 397 00:17:04,513 --> 00:17:06,474 Speaker 1: what they've meant and stuff. So if you're kind of 398 00:17:06,474 --> 00:17:08,874 Speaker 1: going into it things it's just this crazy drama about 399 00:17:08,914 --> 00:17:11,274 Speaker 1: him being like a crazy movie star and Adam Sandler's 400 00:17:11,314 --> 00:17:13,754 Speaker 1: making jokes. It's not that, yeah, but it's a really 401 00:17:13,794 --> 00:17:17,194 Speaker 1: interesting watch. I think you would really like it, Okay, Netflix, Yeah, 402 00:17:17,194 --> 00:17:19,394 Speaker 1: I've got that j Kelly on Netflix. And I think 403 00:17:19,394 --> 00:17:21,154 Speaker 1: it's just you know it's gonna be in the Oscars mix. 404 00:17:21,514 --> 00:17:23,313 Speaker 3: A lot of people tell you it's your job to 405 00:17:23,354 --> 00:17:23,714 Speaker 3: watch it. 406 00:17:24,114 --> 00:17:24,474 Speaker 4: No, no, no. 407 00:17:24,474 --> 00:17:26,354 Speaker 1: I just think it's like when those movies are being discussed, 408 00:17:26,394 --> 00:17:28,474 Speaker 1: like it's nice to have a horse in the race. Yeah, like, 409 00:17:28,514 --> 00:17:30,314 Speaker 1: you know, it's nice to be like, I've watched that movie. 410 00:17:30,354 --> 00:17:31,994 Speaker 1: I have my thoughts on who should win. I have 411 00:17:32,074 --> 00:17:34,314 Speaker 1: my thoughts on that's not true. Yeah, like it's nice 412 00:17:34,354 --> 00:17:36,154 Speaker 1: to be a good feeling. Yeah, but I think you 413 00:17:36,194 --> 00:17:38,794 Speaker 1: would just like it. So j Kelly on Netflix, that's 414 00:17:38,834 --> 00:17:42,914 Speaker 1: a fun watch. What's a deep watch sometimes? So maybe 415 00:17:42,954 --> 00:17:44,914 Speaker 1: you watch that and then you want a gestion week. 416 00:17:45,474 --> 00:17:50,194 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift, Percy Jackson, Jake Kelly, so many different genres 417 00:17:50,194 --> 00:17:54,314 Speaker 1: for people, genre bending, well exactly all genre bending.
