UM, 0:00:59.360 --> 0:01:03.440 Welcome to a difficent We are strolling down memory lane again. 0:01:03.480 --> 0:01:05.920 This week was some of our favorite moments from the 0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:09.720 podcast from this past year. Um Iffy, does anything jump 0:01:09.720 --> 0:01:14.600 out at the top of your head like a favorite moments? No, 0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:19.800 just your life, just just my life.

I think, 0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:27.840 like I said on Twitter, you know, Hector detailing the 0:01:28.959 --> 0:01:35.360 good Doctor Who and hearing those like like hearing Riley's 0:01:35.480 --> 0:01:39.759 great story about how Doctor Who inspires her and I 0:01:39.880 --> 0:01:42.960 even you know, hanging with an old Cannon and Chris. 0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:45.280 You know, that was a good time. And like a 0:01:45.280 --> 0:01:47.320 lot of y'all, a lot of the nerd fan really 0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:51.320 appreciated us touching on the lgbt Q plus community in 0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:55.000 the nerd community, and you know that's that's why we 0:01:55.040 --> 0:01:57.840 did it. We want you to feel seen. Yeah, you know, 0:01:58.000 --> 0:02:00.480 I was really surprised that Lucy tom Lee Brenner, who 0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:04.880 did our Halloween episode, was able to do Halloween. They're 0:02:04.920 --> 0:02:07.560 just so many of them, and she did it so 0:02:07.680 --> 0:02:09.920 well in a way that was entertaining that it wasn't 0:02:09.960 --> 0:02:12.440 just like you know, reading off of Wikipedia or something 0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:16.120 like she was she Yeah, I was surprised that she 0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:19.040 was able to do that, and I enjoyed it. Yeah, 0:02:19.160 --> 0:02:21.560 and I we got tons of more fun like that 0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:24.560 coming in two thousand nineteen. But for right now, here 0:02:24.600 --> 0:02:28.280 are some of our favorite clips. If you have something 0:02:28.320 --> 0:02:30.440 I need to say, though we are I don't know 0:02:30.440 --> 0:02:32.280 if you all know this a part of How Stuff 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:36.800 Works comedy. We are two comedians and we're not going 0:02:36.880 --> 0:02:40.160 to just make this an educational, boring podcast. If you 0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:42.120 want that, go somewhere else. The reason why Iffie and 0:02:42.200 --> 0:02:44.960 I got picked up and got hired and we're sent 0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:47.840 some money's from How Stuff Works to be on this 0:02:47.919 --> 0:02:50.800 network is because our previous podcast where we had a 0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:54.720 really good chemistry together, so we like sharing our experiences. 0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:57.560 If you want someone to go over minute details of 0:02:57.560 --> 0:02:59.799 a nerdy thing, this is not the podcast for you. 0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:03.120 Yeah that it feels like some people just want the 0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:06.560 boring part about nerds stuff. I think the fun and 0:03:06.560 --> 0:03:10.560 and I know some people just took their headphones are like, yeah, 0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:13.720 I think the fun in nerddom and the information from 0:03:13.760 --> 0:03:17.080 nerdom is people's reactions, which is why we have tons 0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:20.600 of guests who are passionate about the source material we're 0:03:20.600 --> 0:03:23.840 talking about, even if we may not be as well 0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:25.720 versed in it. That way, we have at least one 0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:29.560 person in the seats jazzed up, and also we get 0:03:29.560 --> 0:03:31.600 to turn around and let them tell us about their 0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:34.840 experience and get to share that with y'all. This isn't 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:38.080 gonna be you know, I'm gonna like, we'll we'll give 0:03:38.120 --> 0:03:40.560 you the rundown on the basics, but we're not. We're 0:03:40.560 --> 0:03:43.400 not gonna like be like pop quiz, here's all this 0:03:43.400 --> 0:03:47.840 stuff because an episode thirty six of because I feel 0:03:47.840 --> 0:03:49.880 like if we did a podcast about that, people would 0:03:49.920 --> 0:03:51.920 only use it for evil. No one would use it 0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:57.000 for good. People would only use it to argue with us. Yeah. 0:03:57.240 --> 0:03:59.320 I do want to say, though, are most listened to 0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:02.280 episode still is our m c U episode with Hector 0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:04.960 Navarro where Dan and I were talking about this earlier 0:04:05.320 --> 0:04:08.200 where we did go on tangents. We talked about what 0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:10.480 we loved about the films and what we didn't. It 0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:13.080 wasn't just like here's a factual and then Thor showed 0:04:13.160 --> 0:04:14.839 up and then this and that, Like we gave you 0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:17.680 the main highlights of what you needed to know from 0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:20.560 each film, but then we discussed and debated about them, 0:04:20.560 --> 0:04:22.880 and I think that in also laughed a lot, and 0:04:22.920 --> 0:04:25.279 I think that is what makes this podcast great. I 0:04:25.279 --> 0:04:26.760 don't know, I think you guys should be ashamed of 0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:30.400 yourselves for having emotional reactions to things that you love 0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:33.320 absolutely should be ashamed of you. I really like our 0:04:33.400 --> 0:04:35.960 comic Con episode where I talked about how I got 0:04:36.000 --> 0:04:39.080 in by pretending to be with party Boy from Jackass, 0:04:39.160 --> 0:04:41.440 and like those are the behind the things things that 0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:44.160 you need to know about. And how if you you 0:04:44.279 --> 0:04:48.479 got in trouble for like I don't know you were 0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:51.200 like sextying with a girl in a O L messenger. Yeah, 0:04:53.160 --> 0:04:57.520 like those are interesting fun facts to know a nerd culture. So, 0:04:58.279 --> 0:05:01.719 speaking of which, we are Verine with Kyle here today, 0:05:01.800 --> 0:05:04.640 who was an expert in Avatar the Last Airbender. You 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:06.680 actually have a tattooed on your body? I do. I 0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:08.840 have the symbol of the air Nomads tattooed on my 0:05:08.880 --> 0:05:10.560 body with the words let go because air is the 0:05:10.560 --> 0:05:12.960 element of freedom. How many people confuse that for a 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:16.599 frozen tattoo? Most people confuse it for either six six 0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:21.880 six uh or or they think it's a Celtic symbol. 0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:24.800 Can I see I want to see you. It's so 0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:28.200 great because I see how it could be frozen. Um. Yeah, 0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:31.440 I also have my my French my fandom tattooed above 0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:35.480 my wrist to it. Oh yeah, and I got the 0:05:36.200 --> 0:05:38.880 biggest meaning I was trying to think of a non 0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:41.800 curse word way to describe this character. One of his 0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:45.280 battle cries Imperious Rex, and we all got it pretty 0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:50.240 close proximity Imperious Rex. Because I wanted a nerd tattoo 0:05:50.320 --> 0:05:53.440 that would be subtle, uh and cool. Also I like 0:05:53.520 --> 0:05:56.080 it being a reference that not every nerd gets straight 0:05:56.200 --> 0:05:59.640 up just speaking of gate keeping, but not even like 0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:02.320 to the people feel bad about it, but like one 0:06:02.360 --> 0:06:04.680 of those like if you know, you know, because I'm 0:06:04.680 --> 0:06:08.479 a big Marvel guy, really love uh, just the whole 0:06:08.800 --> 0:06:12.040 illuminati behind it, which yeah, sorry if you don't know 0:06:12.080 --> 0:06:16.239 by now. Imperious Rex is name or the submartor's battle cry. 0:06:16.480 --> 0:06:18.599 That's what he yells when he goes into battle, and 0:06:19.080 --> 0:06:22.160 it's Latin for powerful King. It's a it's kind of 0:06:22.200 --> 0:06:24.840 like if you've descended or us send it depending on 0:06:24.839 --> 0:06:26.200 your point of view to like a level of nerd 0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:28.839 dum you know, like you'll know and then it's like, okay, cool, 0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:32.200 you're on my level. He but for all intensive purposes, 0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:34.240 he's the worst. And people were looking at me when 0:06:34.240 --> 0:06:36.400 I had this tattoo because everyone knows I'm a huge 0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:39.120 Black Panther fan. But there was a whole arc where 0:06:39.240 --> 0:06:42.200 him and Chia were at Osny're like, how do you 0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:46.560 feel about this conflicted? Yeah? Absolutely, I I understand. I'm 0:06:46.560 --> 0:06:49.120 an m A Frost fan from it. Also, I understand 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:53.160 conflicting feelings. You know, that's only about three writers got her, right, 0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:57.839 So I understand your your your feelings. Well. Before we 0:06:58.000 --> 0:07:01.400 totally dive into the timeline of of Avatar The Last Airbender, 0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:03.680 what was your first introduction to it? How did you 0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:05.080 for I mean, where did you watch it when it 0:07:05.120 --> 0:07:07.120 first came out on Nickelodeon's I did not watch it 0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:08.520 when it first came out of Nickelodeon because I was 0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:11.440 in high school and I was I was too cool 0:07:11.480 --> 0:07:12.800 to watch it. But then a friend of mine when 0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:14.800 I got into college, I was like, you need to 0:07:14.840 --> 0:07:16.440 watch the show. You absolutely need to watch it. And 0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:19.160 it just ended. Uh, And so I got a hard 0:07:19.240 --> 0:07:22.040 drive with the three seasons of The Last Airbender and 0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:24.880 I just ran through it and it became I watched 0:07:24.880 --> 0:07:27.480 it at such a perfect moment in my life because 0:07:27.480 --> 0:07:29.480 so many of the lessons just kind of like I 0:07:29.520 --> 0:07:31.720 don't know, emboldened me and made me a better person 0:07:31.760 --> 0:07:34.320 in a lot of ways, and especially helped me like 0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:36.520 come into my own as like a queer person, so 0:07:36.640 --> 0:07:38.000 like I don't know, just a lot of ways. It 0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:39.960 really helped me out. It was the best. Yeah. I 0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:43.280 also didn't watch it in high school because I don't know, 0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:46.679 so I was looking at the timeline. It first aired 0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:50.440 February twenty one, two thousand and five, and that's when 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:52.720 it premiered, and I was in my junior year of 0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:55.600 high school. Same thing, like the area that I lived, 0:07:55.600 --> 0:07:59.440 and it wasn't really cool to watch quote unquote cartoons 0:07:59.720 --> 0:08:02.280 and I was still kind of secretly watching Dragon ball Z, 0:08:02.360 --> 0:08:04.160 but that was something that I started when I was ten, 0:08:04.640 --> 0:08:06.720 so a little bit different. The dragon ball Z can 0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:09.720 span a lot of age ranges, I feel like true, 0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:11.560 but it was still weird for me to watch it 0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:14.320 as a teenage girl where I was. And then I 0:08:14.360 --> 0:08:16.760 was looking because Legend of Cora then came out in 0:08:16.800 --> 0:08:19.280 twelve and I was like, oh, I was getting married then, 0:08:20.080 --> 0:08:23.040 and then I was getting divorced, so like I actually 0:08:23.080 --> 0:08:25.840 didn't really grow up. I didn't really watch this series 0:08:25.960 --> 0:08:28.200 at all. Like I still haven't really picked it up. 0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:30.720 And that's why I'm really we brought on Kyle to 0:08:30.920 --> 0:08:33.600 kind of one because you're a huge expert and love it, 0:08:33.640 --> 0:08:35.760 but also to kind of fill in the gaps for me. 0:08:36.640 --> 0:08:38.560 You don't need to write me anybody. I know that 0:08:38.600 --> 0:08:40.400 I need to watch it, along with a billion other 0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:42.120 things that I haven't had time to watch. But I'm 0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:45.199 just saying those times in my life were times when 0:08:45.480 --> 0:08:48.839 I wasn't when I was married, I would have to 0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:51.800 secretly like record anime that I wanted to watch. It 0:08:51.880 --> 0:08:53.800 was so weird. My husband kind of made me feel 0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:56.280 weird for being adult that watched cartoons. It's just a 0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:58.880 reminder and again I'm saying, I know it's not cartoons, 0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:02.120 but like that's what we'll call it, and just a 0:09:02.200 --> 0:09:05.240 reminder to me that there's still so many areas like 0:09:05.320 --> 0:09:08.439 that where we're really lucky to be in an area 0:09:08.440 --> 0:09:10.680 and I think in like part of nerd culture where 0:09:10.679 --> 0:09:14.920 it's cool or or acceptable, but like there's still so 0:09:14.960 --> 0:09:17.440 many areas and probably people listening where like they can't 0:09:17.440 --> 0:09:19.880 even openly talk about it with their coworkers because they're 0:09:19.880 --> 0:09:22.920 seen as weird, like if you don't have children, especially too. 0:09:23.240 --> 0:09:25.600 I think it's it's uh, if I could go back 0:09:25.600 --> 0:09:27.840 in time and tell myself in high school, like, you know, 0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:29.679 you need to watch this show because it is a 0:09:29.760 --> 0:09:32.520 kid show. It is on Nickelodeon, But it was written 0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:34.720 in such a way because originally it wasn't necessarily intended 0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:37.440 to be a kid show. Um, but they randomly got 0:09:37.559 --> 0:09:39.480 a few chances at Nickelodeon and they kind of turned 0:09:39.480 --> 0:09:42.160 it into a kid show. But the themes and the stories, 0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:45.200 so much of it is so dark, like they tell 0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:48.320 such an adult story. And by the third season it's like, 0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:50.839 oh no, like straight up, like you can blood bend people, 0:09:50.920 --> 0:09:54.040 like it's it's messed up. Can can we curse on here? No? 0:09:54.240 --> 0:09:57.560 But if you do, they messed up, messed up. It 0:09:57.679 --> 0:10:00.320 is some messed up stuff. There we go. So what 0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:04.200 is bending? So water benders um when they are during 0:10:04.200 --> 0:10:06.200 a full moon changes a little bit in legend core, 0:10:06.320 --> 0:10:08.800 but in the Last air Bender, water benders on a 0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:11.400 full moon can bend the water in your body and 0:10:11.440 --> 0:10:14.480 basically turn you into a puppet, which is horrifying and 0:10:14.520 --> 0:10:17.880 it also looks extremely painful, and it's like once once 0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:19.400 it gets to that level, it's like, oh yeah, you're 0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:22.520 not playing around, Like that's that's really messed up. Theoretically, 0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:24.080 they could pull the blood out of your body if 0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:27.720 they wanted to. Man, Yeah, no, it it's so funny 0:10:27.720 --> 0:10:31.319 because looking at this timeline was everything clicks back yea. 0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:35.160 So it dropped February two thousand and five, which was 0:10:35.360 --> 0:10:41.080 coming on my birthday and my junior, does you bring 0:10:41.160 --> 0:10:46.640 this up like as many times as you can, you know, 0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:49.920 deep in my weep face, you know, I'm watching Cowboy Bebop, 0:10:50.280 --> 0:10:53.760 according which on Robin on the PHS got the Nauto 0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:56.880 DVDs given to me at this point. So yeah, no, 0:10:57.000 --> 0:11:01.080 I looked down on Avatar heavy, like the worst type 0:11:01.360 --> 0:11:03.920 of And that's why it's so funny when people gate 0:11:03.960 --> 0:11:07.240 keep because when you when you do that gate keeping stuff, 0:11:07.240 --> 0:11:10.360 you are only hurting yourself because you do, especially when 0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:12.880 you do like elitest things like that. Like Avatar is 0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:16.679 a beautiful show. I I I've popped in and watched episodes, 0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:20.080 uh kind of, I think like during season two and 0:11:20.200 --> 0:11:23.160 three because it kind of still it gained traction at 0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:25.200 my school and people kind of were talking about it 0:11:25.280 --> 0:11:27.560 and so like I peeped in and then I graduated 0:11:27.559 --> 0:11:30.440 and people were openly to so I kind of but 0:11:30.480 --> 0:11:34.559 I never gave it the honest full watch. Um and 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:36.520 that's and it was all because of stuff like that. 0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:39.800 I think another I've I've I've I was that type 0:11:39.800 --> 0:11:42.720 of person It's a it's definitely a personality type where 0:11:42.800 --> 0:11:45.680 if something is popping, you want to find a reason 0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:47.480 not to like it. I did that with m F 0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:49.640 Doom and that's one of mine. That's that. It was 0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:51.760 with m F Doom that I told myself I would 0:11:51.880 --> 0:11:55.360 never do it again because everyone loved m F Doom, 0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:58.040 Like I think around same time junior senior year of 0:11:58.120 --> 0:12:01.240 high school and I was so like, he's over rating 0:12:01.360 --> 0:12:04.040 and for no reason, like I did not even know 0:12:04.120 --> 0:12:07.360 it m F Doom song, but because everyone was so 0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:09.520 into him, I had to be the guy who was 0:12:09.600 --> 0:12:11.800 not into him. So then he first did a feature 0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:15.920 on November has Come with the Gorillas, and that's when 0:12:15.960 --> 0:12:19.760 I heard it and I your boy loved the rap. 0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:22.080 But of course I've already set up this persona that 0:12:22.160 --> 0:12:24.160 I hate himf do so so much of other people 0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:26.040 are like this is a dumb thing that if he's 0:12:26.120 --> 0:12:29.480 doing but okay, and like I was like yeah, no, 0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:31.960 I was like, okay, I'll give it to you guys. 0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:37.040 His verse on November has Come was great obviously at 0:12:37.080 --> 0:12:40.840 this this point, that's the only I heard, and I'm like, 0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:43.679 oh man. And then it wasn't until like I graduated 0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:45.920 high school and I was like, let me just check 0:12:45.960 --> 0:12:50.959 this out because I really never have. And I listened 0:12:50.960 --> 0:12:54.559 to Food, which came out in two thousand six, and 0:12:54.800 --> 0:12:57.240 it was made for people like me. It was literally 0:12:57.600 --> 0:13:01.319 a rapper that was made for me. He was he 0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:03.600 m F Doom. He was supposed to be Dr Doom. 0:13:03.800 --> 0:13:08.520 He inter cut like old Fantastic four clips into his wraps, 0:13:08.559 --> 0:13:11.640 like stuff that would blow my mind. I didn't know about, 0:13:11.840 --> 0:13:15.400 didn't even listen to because of this random need to 0:13:15.440 --> 0:13:18.600 be superior in my and I was gonna say nerddom, 0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:20.959 but they had nothing to just to be cool because 0:13:21.000 --> 0:13:24.560 I have to go against the grave, so for me, 0:13:25.520 --> 0:13:29.840 like on its most simple form, Doctor Who is a 0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:35.520 serialized sci fi series about a time traveling alien who 0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:38.800 travels space and time in a spaceship that looks like 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:41.800 antime machine and spaceship that looks like a police box 0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:47.160 for nineteen sixties and that's and basically travels around usually 0:13:47.160 --> 0:13:49.439 with a companion, once in a while alone but very 0:13:49.520 --> 0:13:52.800 rarely because it shouldn't travel alone. Finding people like kind 0:13:52.800 --> 0:13:55.240 of stumbling upon people who are in trouble and helping them. 0:13:55.280 --> 0:13:57.120 And that's basically the premise of the show. So it's 0:13:57.160 --> 0:14:00.400 not unlike how like the premise of Star Trek is like, Hey, 0:14:00.440 --> 0:14:02.600 we have a thing that's happening in this area space, 0:14:02.640 --> 0:14:04.560 let's go check it out and see what's going on. 0:14:04.840 --> 0:14:08.400 That's basically what Doctor Who is like. They're often like 0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:10.920 the it's kind of quirky and at the hardest, which 0:14:10.960 --> 0:14:12.720 is the ship that they that they fly around in, 0:14:12.760 --> 0:14:15.520 which stands for time and relative dimension in space, Like 0:14:15.520 --> 0:14:17.120 they'll be like, Oh, we're gonna go to this cool 0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:19.280 vacation planet, and then they show up instead of planet 0:14:19.320 --> 0:14:22.440 instead and like there's like trouble of Bruin and they'll 0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:24.360 kind of figure out what's going on and then stop it. 0:14:24.560 --> 0:14:29.320 Are they often here on Earth? Other? Yes? Okay, both 0:14:29.520 --> 0:14:31.720 yes equally? Would you say, I'll make it goes from 0:14:31.760 --> 0:14:34.720 season to season. It can be. Some seasons are real 0:14:34.720 --> 0:14:36.640 the Earth heavy. We've actually had a pretty Earth heavy 0:14:36.680 --> 0:14:40.360 several years, But other seasons they almost never come to Earth. 0:14:40.520 --> 0:14:44.320 So this most recent scene they always look human. For 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:47.160 the most part. There are aliens that are alien aliens 0:14:47.320 --> 0:14:50.360 but for the most part, doctors always doctor looks well, 0:14:50.520 --> 0:14:54.440 humans look time from the show, Yeah, there's a lot 0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:58.920 of humanoid races on this ship. Oh so there's an 0:14:58.920 --> 0:15:01.480 episodes actually actually from the show. Someone says, well, you 0:15:01.480 --> 0:15:04.480 look human. He goes, no, you look time lord. So 0:15:04.840 --> 0:15:09.360 there are what we perceived to be human. Time Lords 0:15:09.360 --> 0:15:12.240 basically look like humans, but they have two hearts and 0:15:12.280 --> 0:15:14.520 that's like the difference. That's the big difference between them. 0:15:14.600 --> 0:15:16.480 And they also can regenerate and have like longer, and 0:15:16.520 --> 0:15:19.600 they also can they've also I'm really glad that So 0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:22.200 I'm just gonna ask some questions. Sure um, and I'm 0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:24.720 gonna let you continue. So do they choose what they 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:27.960 look like when they regenerate? Some can not, all can, um, 0:15:28.000 --> 0:15:31.040 some people have randoms. Sometime lords have random regenerations. Others 0:15:31.040 --> 0:15:34.240 can choose it. It's not super dug into the plot. 0:15:34.280 --> 0:15:35.680 That's kind of one of those things where it's just 0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:38.680 like in one episode the writers thought it was funny 0:15:38.720 --> 0:15:41.000 they have this woman changed her appearance a bunch, So 0:15:41.120 --> 0:15:44.240 I guess sometime lords can. The show is so fast 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:47.120 and loose with cannon that it's like really fun to watch. 0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:49.880 Fans then like scramble to try to like this this 0:15:49.920 --> 0:15:53.120 is what this means, because basically what happened is there 0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:56.240 was one episode in the seventies where a character or 0:15:56.320 --> 0:15:58.440 named Romana who was the Doctor's companion, but she was 0:15:58.480 --> 0:16:01.200 also a time lord time lady. They replaced the actress 0:16:01.200 --> 0:16:02.880 in the second season that they had her, so they 0:16:03.040 --> 0:16:06.640 had her regenerate into the other actress and so they 0:16:06.680 --> 0:16:09.000 just had like a jokey scene the first episode with 0:16:09.040 --> 0:16:12.160 her where Romana kept walking in with different forms until 0:16:12.200 --> 0:16:14.240 she like solidified the one she was going to take 0:16:14.640 --> 0:16:15.960 and then travel with the doctor and it was La 0:16:16.040 --> 0:16:19.760 La Ward who was amazing. So that's like, so then 0:16:19.800 --> 0:16:21.680 like when you if you play the Doctor Who role 0:16:21.720 --> 0:16:23.600 playing game and you play, like if you're playing as 0:16:23.600 --> 0:16:26.920 a timelord, you can choose like customized regeneration as one 0:16:26.920 --> 0:16:29.280 of your options. Whereas you played the Doctor, you have 0:16:29.440 --> 0:16:31.800 like you can't choose your regeneration, Like the doctor can't 0:16:32.240 --> 0:16:35.880 like consciously choose his or her regeneration happens at random 0:16:36.520 --> 0:16:40.920 random generation. So there's two questions. Yes, so I remember 0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:44.160 there was a limit on how many regenerations that the 0:16:44.240 --> 0:16:49.680 doctor has, Uh, have we reached that it's been reset 0:16:51.200 --> 0:16:53.400 because the thing is the thing with that something like that, 0:16:53.800 --> 0:16:56.080 and that's that is a thing that was written into 0:16:56.120 --> 0:17:00.640 the show back in the like seventies and when they 0:17:00.680 --> 0:17:03.040 first started like fleshing out time Lord culture. Because when 0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:05.560 the show first started in sixty three with William Hartnell 0:17:05.640 --> 0:17:10.280 the first Doctor, the phrases that I'm using time Lord regeneration, 0:17:11.080 --> 0:17:13.280 two hearts gallop, right, none of that was part of 0:17:13.280 --> 0:17:15.240 the show yet. That was all the doctor was just 0:17:15.280 --> 0:17:18.760 a weird alien and he and his granddaughter were traveling 0:17:18.800 --> 0:17:21.959 the universe in this police box that like Tartist has 0:17:22.000 --> 0:17:25.200 now become like on the show the term people used 0:17:25.200 --> 0:17:28.640 for these ships. But in that episode, like the granddaughter 0:17:28.720 --> 0:17:31.800 just called her ship the Tartist because of the initials. 0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:33.879 That wasn't like the official title for it, but it's 0:17:33.880 --> 0:17:37.280 just been reckoned over time, Like yeah, they're all called Tartists. 0:17:37.320 --> 0:17:42.080 So the original one was like thirteen regenerations, and then 0:17:42.280 --> 0:17:44.320 what happened was at the end when Matt Smith became 0:17:44.359 --> 0:17:47.960 Peter Capaldi, there was they they had squeezed in an 0:17:47.960 --> 0:17:50.680 extra regeneration when they did the fifty the anniversary special. 0:17:51.080 --> 0:17:54.080 So there's a regeneration between Paul McGann, who was the 0:17:54.119 --> 0:17:55.840 Doctor who the actor who played the Doctor in the 0:17:55.920 --> 0:17:59.920 nineties TV movie who was the eighth Doctor, and christ 0:18:00.040 --> 0:18:02.919 for Eccleston who was the ninth Doctor, they squeezed in 0:18:03.040 --> 0:18:06.080 John Hurt as what we call the War Doctor. And 0:18:06.119 --> 0:18:08.320 the reason for that is because Eccleston didn't come back 0:18:09.560 --> 0:18:12.560 virtually special, so they replaced so since he wouldn't come 0:18:12.560 --> 0:18:14.440 back for it, they wrote in this new version of 0:18:14.480 --> 0:18:17.240 the Doctor to kind of fulfill his role. So the 0:18:17.280 --> 0:18:20.000 idea is like, basically when the show came back into 0:18:20.000 --> 0:18:22.560 thousand five, when it kind of like had this soft 0:18:22.640 --> 0:18:24.680 reboot where it still had the old continuity, but it 0:18:24.720 --> 0:18:26.959 was kind of a new format show. Now it went 0:18:27.000 --> 0:18:29.399 from being a serialized twenty two minute episode show to 0:18:29.520 --> 0:18:32.119 being an hour each week, and each hour was like 0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:36.760 a pretty self contained story. They introduced this concept of 0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:41.800 there had been this awful genocidal war in between when 0:18:41.840 --> 0:18:43.879 the show ended and when it came back that they 0:18:43.920 --> 0:18:46.280 called the Time War, and at the end of that 0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:49.160 time War the Doctor. It was between the Doctor's race, 0:18:49.280 --> 0:18:52.840 the Time Lords, and their greatest enemy, the Daleks, and 0:18:53.840 --> 0:18:56.560 the end of the Time War was at that point 0:18:56.600 --> 0:18:59.399 was written to me that the Doctor did something that 0:18:59.480 --> 0:19:01.960 was called the moment. He unleased weapon called the Moment 0:19:02.000 --> 0:19:05.520 that destroyed both races and he was the only survivor 0:19:05.560 --> 0:19:08.600 of the war. And that's why Echolson's Doctor is so 0:19:08.720 --> 0:19:12.440 torn and tormented because he has this guilt of being 0:19:12.520 --> 0:19:15.320 the destructor of his own race on another race as well, 0:19:15.760 --> 0:19:18.520 which is very against what normally the creed of the 0:19:18.560 --> 0:19:21.520 Doctor is, which is very antigenicidal. And like there's an 0:19:21.560 --> 0:19:25.080 episode in Classic Who called Genesis of the Daleks where 0:19:25.080 --> 0:19:27.440 the Time Lord send the Doctor, which is Tom Baker's 0:19:27.480 --> 0:19:31.639 doctor back in time to the Daleks home world to 0:19:31.800 --> 0:19:33.879 try to prevent them from ever being created in the 0:19:33.960 --> 0:19:36.359 first place, and he ends up not doing it because 0:19:36.359 --> 0:19:38.800 he doesn't feel like he morally has the right to 0:19:38.800 --> 0:19:41.560 to deny and that our species the chance to exist. 0:19:42.160 --> 0:19:46.080 And it's a really interesting, fascinating episode. And so that 0:19:46.160 --> 0:19:48.600 was kind of the the crux of the new shows 0:19:48.680 --> 0:19:51.520 that Doctor had like broken his own promise, and that's 0:19:51.520 --> 0:19:53.760 why they brought in John Hurt, like he was like 0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:55.920 he hadn't even referred himself as the Doctor. He's the 0:19:55.960 --> 0:19:57.760 one who failed to be the Doctor. And then that's 0:19:57.760 --> 0:20:00.440 why he's the other ones are all feeling guilty then on, 0:20:01.359 --> 0:20:03.880 So that was one regeneration that was squeezed in. And 0:20:03.920 --> 0:20:06.800 also you may remember during David Tennant's run this Net 0:20:06.840 --> 0:20:09.919 Present episode where he starts to regenerate and then like 0:20:09.960 --> 0:20:11.800 sends the energy out of him into a hand and 0:20:11.920 --> 0:20:14.600
