And this was believe the poles, 25 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 7: it was going to be closely forwards. Essentially, what we 26 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 7: are seeing is a red wave across the swing states, 27 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 7: the seven swing states that we kept talking about, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Georgia, 28 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 7: North Carolina, Nevada, and Arizona. He's going to be a 29 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,960 Speaker 7: complete red way for him. He could very well surpassed 30 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 7: the twenty sixteen It was Ogos Tillary Clinton, so mark 31 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 7: lift that just came his way. It seemed to be 32 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 7: a complete rejection of the Democratic campaign exit poles subjective 33 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 7: that most mothers has actually made up with fine pemper. 34 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 7: So look, there's been a very clear indication now where 35 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 7: America stands. He spoke to Kamla hours earlier today, was 36 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:43,400 Speaker 7: a very very brief call that is unsurprising he and 37 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,320 Speaker 7: he agreed with her that there was an importance around 38 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 7: unifying the nation. Now that's the task ahead for him. 39 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 7: Me announced a whole swave of ideas yesterday and talking 40 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 7: about making America big and finding a new golden age. 41 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 7: And we know he's got a focus fugus business and manufacturer. 42 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 7: He has a huge job at hand now to fulfill 43 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 7: the promises that he has made to the electorates and 44 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 7: his team is now trying to eye up obviously the Audubt. 45 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 3: Capturing absolutely, Jonathan, would you surprise not just how comprehensive 46 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 3: the victory was, but how the early league was unassailable. 47 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 3: It was incredible, isn't it? 48 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 8: Yeah? 49 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 7: I mean Donald Trump in presidential elections, Republicans are almost 50 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 7: did a little bit of an early league because some 51 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 7: of those states that len the reds come in first, 52 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 7: so some of the early results are advising, but there 53 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 7: was just no chasing it down. There seemed to be 54 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 7: very few white spots for the Democratic campaign. They were 55 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 7: looking to numbers in Philadelphia, they were looking to numbers 56 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 7: in Michigan. It seemed at one point as if they 57 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 7: were almost clutching its stores. And then probably by the 58 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 7: late evening here at the part of it was almost 59 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 7: a foregone conclusion that Donald Trump would become president elected, 60 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 7: and it was just a matter of waiting to see 61 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 7: him leave Marilago as we did last night, make his 62 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,399 Speaker 7: way to the convention center and address the thousands who 63 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 7: had way impatiently for him. But he wasn't just thinking 64 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 7: to them. 65 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 9: This was a speech of the world. 66 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 7: I mean, for a lot of the supporters. I've been 67 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 7: talking to in and around Marijuaca the last couple of days. 68 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 7: They said, this is vengeance. This is something they wanted 69 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 7: four years ago that they didn't get. But now the 70 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 7: world is telling who's watching, just how Donald Trump carried 71 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:17,079 Speaker 7: out his second term. 72 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 4: I remember in twenty sixteen in Democrat circles and I mean, 73 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 4: you know, like just supporters, it was kind of stunned silence, 74 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 4: the reaction. 75 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 2: What was it like this time? 76 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 7: It's like people are reputting themself all over again. Yeah, 77 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 7: there were At Kamala Harris was due to speak and 78 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 7: aventually the crowd, the culture would not be speaking. She 79 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 7: has just spocular short time ago, and it was a 80 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 7: very powerful speech. It was a speech that was essentially 81 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 7: framed around not giving up the fight and sometimes she 82 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 7: had had this mancher during the campaign when we fight, 83 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 7: we win, and she said, we didn't win this fight, 84 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 7: but sometimes the fight takes a long time to win, 85 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 7: but we need to keep fighting. So that is certainly 86 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 7: the message that she was sending across. She wants people 87 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 7: to con She knew to campaign on issues around abortion 88 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 7: rights of women's reproductive life, and she has made her 89 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 7: point very very clear today she said that she conceded defeat, 90 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 7: which is something that Donald Trump did not do four 91 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 7: years ago. She has now afforded the opportunity that he 92 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 7: did not afford them. So, look, there is going to 93 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 7: be a significant focus now on how Donald Trump moves 94 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 7: on what numilation from the Republican side, and they are 95 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 7: going to be controlling not only the White House, but 96 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 7: likely both chambers in Congress as well, which makes power 97 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 7: a very big thing for Donald Trump in his second term. 98 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 7: So looking forward to this now, I mean you have 99 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 7: the eyes of the world now watching exactly what he 100 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 7: will be doing. World Lee. This might be pouring in 101 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 7: with congratulations, but there might all be some also be 102 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:48,160 Speaker 7: some angst given his promise to higher tariffs, given some 103 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 7: of his concerns around national in secure and the flat 104 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 7: of the past. So yes, this is a significant, huge 105 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 7: victory for Donald Trump takes moling away from him. He 106 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 7: has campaigned on the issues that he believed to be 107 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 7: true to the American let's set up. They absolutely have 108 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 7: prooved to be true. He relied on people like Elon Musk, 109 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 7: He relied on right wing effectively podcast hosts to get 110 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 7: his message out there and He's won the popular vote 111 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 7: as well, which is what he has not done in 112 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 7: twenty sixty or twenty twenty. So this is a thumping 113 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 7: victory for Donald Trump and an absolutely devastating defeat for 114 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 7: the Democrats. 115 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 2: Certainly is well, Jonathan, thank you so much. 116 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 3: Excited sums it all up, brotherly, it would have been 117 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 3: a hell of a red wash of Budon and Dougie's heeling. 118 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 2: There would be plenty to talk about soon, I guess yeah, 119 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 2: we'll keep in time.

The show is called Authentic Stupidity. 125 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 4: You you fear the greatest threat right now is not Ai. 126 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 2: It's AES. 127 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 9: Yeah. I mean that's just the sort of little hook 128 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 9: chives people who know me. And it's been forty four 129 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 9: years of stand up comedy and in my first audi 130 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 9: gigs back in eighty six, so it's been a long 131 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 9: haul and people know I always bring a new show 132 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 9: and I don't normally give it a title. It's just 133 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 9: called burn out in Live. But in fact, any of 134 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 9: my thoughts could have been called authentic stupidity, because basically 135 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 9: that's what I think good comedy does. I think it 136 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 9: interrogates the essential absurdity of existence, and it's every form, 137 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,359 Speaker 9: from the minut tie to the vast and global, and 138 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 9: that's what I always do. But yeah, the AI thing 139 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 9: gave me that little extra push because you know, everybody 140 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 9: has been banging on about what an existential threat it 141 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:48,599 Speaker 9: is to our very being. You know, it's replaceds effectively, 142 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 9: and they say it's the greatest threat we've ever faced, 143 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 9: And of course I couldn't resist thing. I think the 144 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 9: greatest threat we've ever faced as an artificial intelligence, but 145 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 9: the same one we have always faced, which is authentic stupidity. 146 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,119 Speaker 9: Not lead that we've allowed a bunch of unelected, unaccountable, 147 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 9: tax avoiding billionaires floating in their yachts off Malibu or 148 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 9: blasting off in their private phallic symbol spaceship.

Sometimes it's hard to find that. 177 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 9: And will it Yeah, And of course the big question is, 178 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 9: you know, could could it do my job? You know, 179 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 9: could it do you know Leonard McCartney's job. I mean 180 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 9: that has yet to be seen. I mean I can't 181 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 9: I can't believe it. I can't believe that just by 182 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 9: feeding all the old Beatles songs into a machine it 183 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 9: could write a brilliant new Beatles song, probably a good 184 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 9: pastiche but then the Ruffles was a great passage. Yeah, 185 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 9: the teric idol and and Neil Inis wrote that in 186 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 9: a week. I don't know. Look, it is scary. I 187 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 9: don't talk about AI. I do do a riff on 188 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 9: it because it's, you know, it's interesting, and I always 189 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 9: I always base my material on stuff I find interesting. 190 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 9: But then of course I go on and do what 191 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 9: I always do, which is unpack the essential smallness, vulnerability, 192 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 9: and silliness of being alive, starting with myself. My wife 193 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 9: started claiming that she's the biggest target of my routo, 194 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 9: but she's not. She comes off really lightly. I'm the 195 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 9: biggest target. 196 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 4: You were last turing in twenty twenty one. It doesn't 197 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 4: sound like a long time ago, but in comedy years. 198 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 4: At the moment, comedy is I find changing so quickly. 199 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 4: How do you feel about the landscape of comedy and 200 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 4: the you know, the things that comedians I can't do anymore? 201 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 9: Well, I don't know. There's some much. I mean, look, 202 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,839 Speaker 9: there is there is a certain new puritanism in the air, 203 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 9: and it is coming from the left rather than the right. 204 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 9: I mean, I don't think me, oh yeah, canceled. In fact, 205 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 9: those famous comedians in the world are the ones that 206 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,679 Speaker 9: are complaining about the possibility of being canceled. I mean 207 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 9: on their Netflix specials and in their ten thousand se 208 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 9: so I mean, I think in academia there is a 209 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 9: problem with a sort of new Orwellian thought crime police 210 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 9: out there on the net, insisting that everybody agrees with 211 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 9: exactly their new interpretation of anything they want to talk about. 212 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:15,679 Speaker 9: I think there is a problem, but I don't think 213 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 9: it's in comedy. But even if it was, it wouldn't 214 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 9: it wouldn't worry me because I've always plugged my own pharaoh. 215 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 9: I don't know what comedy is like at the moment. 216 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 9: I don't watch Netflix comedy specials. I don't watch other 217 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 9: stand up comics. The actually stand up I'm interested in 218 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 9: me because I do it for my material. I do it. 219 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 9: I mean, that's not me being arrogant. That's like, you know, 220 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,439 Speaker 9: that's you know, I'm I'm I'm a writer and when 221 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 9: I'm a comedian on stage, I'm delivering. You know, there's 222 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 9: this phrase gens zed use stand in your truth. Well 223 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 9: that's what I'm doing on stage, So you know it's 224 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 9: not an arrogance. I just to me. Other stand up comics, 225 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 9: It's not my favorite form of entertainment. I'd rather watch 226 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 9: a drama or play, or indeed a sitcom. Stand up 227 00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 9: I don't. I don't really find it that attractive. I 228 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 9: do mine as a kind of stream of personal, personal 229 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 9: outrage and delight. You know, it's a very personal thing, 230 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 9: my standard, and no one else could do my material. 231 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 3: And I'm sure therapeutic at times as well. You can 232 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 3: go to get it out there. 233 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 9: Yeah, kind of My wife again might have who needs 234 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 9: therapy on the whole. 235 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 4: Cathley, as someone who has made a lot of television yourself, 236 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 4: I'm curious, what is the last thing that you watched 237 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 4: and enjoyed. 238 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 9: I just watched.

But in the meantime, my reaction 439 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,639 Speaker 11: to the film is it's epic like and it's definitely 440 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 11: doesn't be so Ridley Scott has thought of all the 441 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 11: things that he wanted to do in the first movie 442 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 11: but couldn't because of the technological limitations filmmaker, and he's 443 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 11: been thinking about this for twenty five years. He's bung 444 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 11: them all into this new film. And so if you've 445 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,120 Speaker 11: watched the trailer, which we can talk about, you'll see 446 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 11: there's scenes where Paul mescal who is he plays So 447 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 11: in the original there was a little boy, Lucius, who 448 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 11: was the you know, sort of the son of Lucilla 449 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 11: played by Connie Nielsen, the little nephew of Jaquim Phoenix's emperor, 450 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,200 Speaker 11: who was his life was under threat and he watched 451 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:51,360 Speaker 11: Maximus kill Jaqum Phoenix in the in the Colosseum. This 452 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,400 Speaker 11: movie Gladiator Too, Lucius is all grown up, played by 453 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 11: Paul Mescal. He finds himself back in the Colosseum fighting 454 00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 11: for his own life, trying to get his own revenge 455 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 11: on whoever is in charge and Rome at the time. 456 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 11: And so from the trailer you see him fighting baboons, 457 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 11: which I will tell you is nightmare fuel in the movie, 458 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 11: like a baboon that's been shaved is like a demon dog. 459 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 11: It is horrific and horrific. Yeah, there's CG babboons. But 460 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 11: I got the chance to speak to Paul Mescal last 461 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 11: week and he told me that what they had because 462 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 11: they did you know, sometimes they just have a stick 463 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 11: with a tennis ball. Yeah, but no, Ridley Scott loves 464 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 11: to do everything as realistic as possible, so he got 465 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 11: highly trained stunt men to wear These highly trained trained 466 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 11: stuntmen to wear licra suits and b babboons to act 467 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 11: like they did this training to be the baboon. So 468 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 11: when you see Paul Mescal biding a baboon, he was 469 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 11: biting the stump, the stomach. And then there's another scene 470 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 11: in the trailer where they flood the colosseum and recreate 471 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,679 Speaker 11: a naval battle and they and they fill a colisseum 472 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 11: with and it's it's very over the top, very over 473 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 11: to the show. And I won't tell you if it's 474 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 11: good or bad. 475 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:07,159 Speaker 5: I'm not allowed to do that. 476 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 11: But the spectacle is certainly extremely epic, and so you know, 477 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 11: I think there's a lot to look forward to if 478 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 11: you're a fan of the original, and I am. Whether 479 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 11: whether it lives up to it or not, you're going 480 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 11: to have to wait till sext You need to talk 481 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 11: about this movie willing to, you know, sort of judge 482 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 11: it on his own. And Pedro Pedro Rascal and Denzel 483 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 11: plays like a slave who's risen to become the owner 484 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,879 Speaker 11: of the Gladiators, so he sort of owns Paul Mescal's 485 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 11: character Macronus, And a lot of these are real life figures. 486 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 11: Macronus was a Berber who was a slave who rose 487 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 11: through the ranks in Rome.

Of course, it's based on 502 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 11: the musical, which is a blockbuster musical. It's one tone, 503 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 11: it is a little yeah, it is a little strange. 504 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,439 Speaker 11: And so you've got you know, all of those characters 505 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 11: that people love from the stage musical. You've got Alpha Ba, 506 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 11: the Wicked Witch of the West. It's kind of her 507 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 11: origin story how she became the Wicked Witch of the West. Glinda, 508 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 11: the Good Witch of the North is played by Arian 509 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,400 Speaker 11: and Grande Alpham is played by Cynthia Arrivo. They're both 510 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 11: incredible singers. Obviously we know about Ariana as a pop star, 511 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 11: but I think, you know, without giving too much away, 512 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 11: one thing that people will all be talking about when 513 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,640 Speaker 11: they come out of Wicked the movie is how funny 514 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 11: Ariana Grande. Oh my gosh. I was so surprised. I 515 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 11: went in there with low expectations about what sort of 516 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 11: performance that she would give. Obviously I knew she could sing, yeah, 517 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 11: but she's hilarious. 518 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 4: She played a funny character back in her Nickelodeon she 519 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 4: exactly it comes from funny. 520 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 11: I think it's easy to forget. Her characters on Nickelodeon's 521 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 11: sketch comedy shows were actually pretty funny. She is also 522 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 11: in a show called Screen Queens from a few years ago, 523 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 11: and she was very funny on that too, And it's 524 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 11: it's a kind of a more of a subtle performance. 525 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 11: There's a little bit of physical comedy, a look here 526 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 11: and there, but she carries that off quite well. And 527 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 11: it's directed by John m chu who did the adaptation 528 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:54,919 Speaker 11: of In the Heights, the which was which was a 529 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 11: big musical from a couple of years ago. It was 530 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 11: a bomb at the box office. It was actually critically 531 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 11: very well received, huge set pieces, so that was a 532 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 11: very you know, sort of elaborate musical adaptation.
