00:19 --> 00:28 [SPEAKER_00]: the low and welcome back to radioactive ramblings where we are back and feeling really, really lucky to be here because, friendly reminder, most kids are dead by this age.
00:29 --> 00:33 [SPEAKER_00]: My name is Aaron and today, I am joined by our bottle cap factory foreman Richard.
00:34 --> 00:42 [SPEAKER_01]: So, guys, I run the bottle cap factory, no breaks, 22-hour shift minimum, every day guys.
00:43 --> 00:48 [SPEAKER_00]: use your hands, get those, those, get those calluses going, get those bottle caps off.
00:48 --> 00:49 [SPEAKER_00]: The glove's really impede you.
00:49 --> 00:56 [SPEAKER_01]: I, I must say, you don't get enough friction or like grip on the cap, but you know, you take the gloves off.
00:56 --> 01:01 [SPEAKER_01]: Once you start developing some real nasty calluses, it's just, it's like you got a built-in bottle opener.
01:02 --> 01:07 [SPEAKER_00]: You know, I think that that's what shop might be the best.
01:08 --> 01:13 [SPEAKER_00]: condition for a child in this wasteland to be living in from what we've seen so far.
01:13 --> 01:23 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, yeah, it's either indoctrination into the brotherhood or Kaiser's legion or, um, be soup.
01:24 --> 01:25 [SPEAKER_01]: That's, that's about it.
01:25 --> 01:30 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, at least at least we let them drink the sodas when they open them.
01:30 --> 01:31 [SPEAKER_00]: It's a really nice treat for them.
01:31 --> 01:35 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that they're, they really are lucky or the
01:35 --> 01:41 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, yeah, they, they've outlived like every, every other member of their generation.
01:42 --> 01:51 [SPEAKER_00]: I really want to know how Thadius found all of these kids, like, did you just kind of wander around scooping up random orphaned children?
01:52 --> 01:52 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, what?
01:52 --> 02:01 [SPEAKER_01]: I, I hope that he stumbled across the factory where they were all hiding out and he decided, hey, kids, how about manual labor?
02:03 --> 02:05 [SPEAKER_00]: It's not a bad business model.
02:05 --> 02:14 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, as long as there's still soda around, he can just infinite money glitch with those bottle caps.
02:15 --> 02:22 [SPEAKER_00]: I thought he was looking for Sunset Sesperella star bottle caps because there's like,
02:22 --> 02:28 [SPEAKER_00]: special limited edition bottles that have a blue star, and you can like turn it in for a prize.
02:28 --> 02:36 [SPEAKER_00]: If you get enough star bottle thefts, the prizes are all really terrible, but people don't know what the prizes are, so they'd like kill each other in the wasteland over them.
02:37 --> 02:38 [SPEAKER_00]: Of course.
02:39 --> 02:41 [SPEAKER_00]: Anyways Richard, before we get into it, how are you doing today?
02:41 --> 02:44 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm doing absolutely fantastic.
02:45 --> 02:46 [SPEAKER_01]: How about you, sir?
02:46 --> 02:47 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm doing pretty great.
02:47 --> 02:50 [SPEAKER_00]: We had a couple of really good episodes.
02:51 --> 02:56 [SPEAKER_00]: Thank you all for being patient while we get our episodes two and three breakdown.
02:56 --> 03:01 [SPEAKER_00]: We had an originally planned to split them up, but it's been winter.
03:01 --> 03:03 [SPEAKER_01]: It's been winter and Buffalo.
03:03 --> 03:05 [SPEAKER_01]: It came to play for real this year.
03:05 --> 03:07 [SPEAKER_00]: It really did.
03:07 --> 03:13 [SPEAKER_00]: I lost my Wi-Fi a couple of times in addition to the whole holiday being busy of it all.
03:13 --> 03:15 [SPEAKER_00]: Richard, did you lose power to you, Luzani?
03:16 --> 03:21 [SPEAKER_01]: I didn't lose power, but some Monday, you know, I had my first day at my new job.
03:21 --> 03:26 [SPEAKER_01]: And we're, we're right on Lake, here we go.
03:27 --> 03:29 [SPEAKER_01]: So of course the snow is so much worse.
03:29 --> 03:30 [SPEAKER_01]: The wind is so much worse.
03:30 --> 03:31 [SPEAKER_01]: There's like 80 mile an hour winds.
03:32 --> 03:33 [SPEAKER_01]: So they sent us home at noon.
03:33 --> 03:37 [SPEAKER_01]: And that was a great, because then I got to come home and do absolutely nothing.
03:39 --> 03:41 [SPEAKER_00]: What a great first day on the job.
03:41 --> 03:46 [SPEAKER_00]: Getting to leave it noon.
03:46 --> 03:56 [SPEAKER_01]: it was kind of wild, like getting home, uh, getting home on Monday and getting home on Wednesday was bad because that was when the wind was like really picking up.
03:57 --> 04:08 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I took my dog on a walk the day after we had that crazy storm on the bike path and there was just a tree down on the bike that fully uprooted.
04:08 --> 04:09 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, completely.
04:09 --> 04:09 [SPEAKER_00]: It was really.
04:10 --> 04:11 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it was kind of crazy.
04:12 --> 04:21 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think we've had too much debris over here, but we did like me and my roommates all just kind of did the drive way.
04:21 --> 04:26 [SPEAKER_01]: Took us like 10 minutes between the three of us.
04:28 --> 04:34 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, if anyone wants to get a hold of us now that we have our Wi-Fi back, how can they do it?
04:34 --> 04:37 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, there's so many different ways.
04:37 --> 04:38 [SPEAKER_00]: Let me tell you about them.
04:38 --> 04:43 [SPEAKER_01]: First off, we got our email, radioactiveetthelorhounds.com.
04:43 --> 04:47 [SPEAKER_01]: We also have a channel set up for radioactive ramblings within the lower-hounds.
04:47 --> 04:51 [SPEAKER_01]: This chord server, you can send us a message, chat about the show, you know.
04:51 --> 04:53 [SPEAKER_01]: You can ramble if you will.
04:54 --> 04:58 [SPEAKER_01]: You could use the contact form or leave us a voicemail at the lowerhons.com.
04:59 --> 05:03 [SPEAKER_01]: And consider giving us follow on Blue Sky at Radioactive 141.
05:04 --> 05:10 [SPEAKER_01]: We would also pretty please appreciate a rating on Apple Podcasts Spotify audible.
05:11 --> 05:21 [SPEAKER_01]: I think there's one on YouTube you can listen to us through whatever you guys are listening to us, you know, helps other listeners like you find us and it also lets us know how we're doing.
05:22 --> 05:22 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
05:22 --> 05:26 [SPEAKER_00]: If you are one of our three listeners on YouTube, please reach out to us.
05:26 --> 05:27 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm curious about you.
05:28 --> 05:31 [SPEAKER_00]: Get all of us.
05:31 --> 05:41 [SPEAKER_00]: Without further ado, though, we are going to be covering, of course, fall out season two episode two, the Golden Rule and episode three, the Profile Get.
05:42 --> 05:56 [SPEAKER_00]: So, these were a good bunch of episodes before we go blow by blow into the story arcs, which I've condensed the different story arcs into, like, spanning across the two
05:56 --> 05:57 [SPEAKER_00]: ease of continuity here.
05:57 --> 06:02 [SPEAKER_00]: So we're going to be kind of talking about these episodes as if they're one and just talking about the plot points.
06:03 --> 06:09 [SPEAKER_00]: And then at the very end, we'll mention a little bit how we felt about the individual episodes.
06:09 --> 06:13 [SPEAKER_00]: But for the most part, we're just going to treat it as a whole breakdown.
06:14 --> 06:19 [SPEAKER_00]: Richard, any like non-spoiler thoughts on the episode before we get into it?
06:20 --> 06:23 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, not, I mean, I thought the episodes were good.
06:23 --> 06:26 [SPEAKER_00]: That's really all I can say without spoiling.
06:27 --> 06:28 [SPEAKER_00]: What about you, sir?
06:29 --> 06:30 [SPEAKER_00]: I would say pretty much the same.
06:30 --> 06:31 [SPEAKER_00]: I really enjoyed these episodes.
06:32 --> 06:34 [SPEAKER_00]: I did think that three was the weakest of the bunch.
06:35 --> 06:43 [SPEAKER_00]: I didn't love it the first time around when I watched it, but I did a rewatch earlier this morning, just in preparation for this review.
06:43 --> 06:46 [SPEAKER_00]: And it grew on me a lot this second time around.
06:46 --> 06:47 [SPEAKER_00]: It wasn't that I disliked it.
06:47 --> 06:49 [SPEAKER_00]: It just felt.
06:49 --> 06:51 [SPEAKER_01]: It was the least good of the three.
06:51 --> 06:52 [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, exactly.
06:52 --> 06:58 [SPEAKER_00]: It was the least good of a great bunch of episodes.
06:58 --> 07:05 [SPEAKER_00]: I, you know what, no, we're going to, let's go into the spoilers here because I can't really say anything without actually getting into the content.
07:05 --> 07:08 [SPEAKER_00]: So without further ado, full spoilers from here on out.
07:08 --> 07:18 [SPEAKER_00]: And we are going to start out with the storyline that was quite notably absent from episode one, which is the Brotherhood of Steel Arc, which...
07:18 --> 07:28 [SPEAKER_00]: In brief, the Knights of San Fernando uncovered Area 51 from the Sands and moved into their new home before calling a meeting of prominent Brotherhood Elders in the West.
07:30 --> 07:40 [SPEAKER_00]: They want to discuss taking power from the Commonwealth, but that kind of gets sideline as Paladin, Xander-Harkness crashes the meeting and disrupts their negotiations.
07:41 --> 07:52 [SPEAKER_00]: Paladin Harkness, we should talk about him for a minute, play by good, wonderful, Camel non-Giani, we knew that he was coming this season, didn't expect him to go so quickly.
07:52 --> 07:56 [SPEAKER_01]: I like him though, I like I mean like I don't like he's a dick.
07:57 --> 07:59 [SPEAKER_01]: He's a brotherhood member.
07:59 --> 08:07 [SPEAKER_01]: So like he's obviously not a great person, but I thought he was like a fun character and like he he was a good like well written character.
08:07 --> 08:10 [SPEAKER_01]: He just, you know, he he's with the brotherhood.
08:10 --> 08:15 [SPEAKER_01]: So the brotherhood obviously has their shortcomings to say the least.
08:16 --> 08:33 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and you know what, every single time, whether it's in the games or in this show that the brotherhood is doing something really evil, you have the people who look at the brotherhood with rose-tented glasses who are like, this is not how the brotherhood would ever act.
08:33 --> 08:34 [SPEAKER_00]: This is not what they do.
08:35 --> 08:38 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't really know what to say in response to that.
08:38 --> 08:40 [SPEAKER_00]: This is what they've always done.
08:40 --> 08:45 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't mean to come across so crass, but yeah, I was 13 once too, all right.
08:46 --> 08:48 [SPEAKER_01]: But the brotherhood is not goded.
08:49 --> 08:52 [SPEAKER_01]: They have a goded aesthetic, you know?
08:52 --> 09:01 [SPEAKER_01]: Like the vibes are so strong and that's why I will always take Brotherhood armor and power armor and stuff like that.
09:02 --> 09:05 [SPEAKER_01]: But oh my god, I do not agree with these people at all.
09:05 --> 09:06 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
09:06 --> 09:18 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that people tend to think of characters like Paladin dance or elder lions or serolions when they think of the Brotherhood in this modern context.
09:18 --> 09:19 [SPEAKER_01]: Right.
09:19 --> 09:33 [SPEAKER_01]: They think of like key players who didn't suck instead of like the the organization as a whole.
09:33 --> 09:46 [SPEAKER_00]: the most moral of any of the Brotherhood elders because he had an actual basic conscience, even under him, his paladins and his knights were massacaring innocent ghouls.
09:47 --> 09:50 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, there's just no
09:51 --> 09:53 [SPEAKER_00]: decent brotherhood chapters out there.
09:53 --> 09:55 [SPEAKER_00]: There are some that are better than others.
09:55 --> 09:58 [SPEAKER_00]: There are some who genuinely want to help and think that they're doing the right thing.
09:58 --> 10:15 [SPEAKER_00]: But essentially the brotherhood is just in a society that has left behind the type of racism that we know in our modern
10:15 --> 10:40 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I hear what you mean because like they racism based on skin color just really isn't a thing in Like in as much of a thing at least in the wasteland, it's more just like if you have a mutation Some people really want you to add You know, we have the other side of it which
10:41 --> 11:03 [SPEAKER_00]: was kind of brought up during the whole goal on his side quests in episode three where the NCR had codified laws, protecting ghouls and other mutants, even super mutants, because there were a lot of mutants in the NCR and there were several large cities and
11:03 --> 11:05 [SPEAKER_00]: settlements that were majority goal populations.
11:05 --> 11:08 [SPEAKER_00]: So they did believe in equality.
11:08 --> 11:10 [SPEAKER_00]: There was still a lot of anti mutant sentiment.
11:10 --> 11:13 [SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, on paper, they were at least progressive.
11:14 --> 11:15 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and make that attempt.
11:15 --> 11:24 [SPEAKER_01]: It's just that, unfortunately, not all of the people who lived there shared that that sentiment or that mindset.
11:25 --> 11:29 [SPEAKER_00]: do we want to talk about the destruction of shady sands?
11:29 --> 11:31 [SPEAKER_00]: This was I almost cried.
11:31 --> 11:32 [SPEAKER_00]: This was heartbreaking then.
11:33 --> 11:35 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, this is, this is not, not good at all.
11:36 --> 11:38 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, no one survived that.
11:39 --> 11:40 [SPEAKER_00]: Really.
11:40 --> 11:48 [SPEAKER_01]: And to me, it just highlight Hank McLean piece of shit, piece of shit.
11:48 --> 11:51 [SPEAKER_01]: I hope he dies horribly.
11:52 --> 11:53 [SPEAKER_00]: He just is terrible.
11:53 --> 12:01 [SPEAKER_00]: The fact that he can blow up a city of more than 40 people and then just go and immediately start reading his daughter at bedtime story like nothing is wrong.
12:04 --> 12:04 [SPEAKER_00]: True, mom.
12:04 --> 12:06 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, what do you mean?
12:06 --> 12:12 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, like you just killed how many people are we estimating lived in the shady sands?
12:12 --> 12:14 [SPEAKER_00]: I think it was about 40.
12:14 --> 12:14 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
12:15 --> 12:16 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that's a lot more than a few thousand.
12:16 --> 12:16 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
12:17 --> 12:18 [SPEAKER_01]: So like that's,
12:19 --> 12:37 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, that's that's a lot of fucking people that you just kind of cut off got rid of yeah and it doesn't seem like in this episode we get some hints that maybe the NCR really isn't as done so as we thought that they were like
12:38 --> 12:49 [SPEAKER_00]: they talk a little bit about they're being some battalions out west, but that was over 20 years ago, so it's very possible that they're disbanded or dead or whatever, but we don't know better.
12:49 --> 12:54 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it might just be the one, the the members that we saw with the, with the, with the Google.
12:54 --> 13:12 [SPEAKER_00]: exactly and we get a pretty iconic fallout new vagus line which is patrolling the little how they almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter even I recognize that one it's become like the chief fallout brain rot term which is why is it like air to the knee
13:12 --> 13:20 [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, it is exactly like the Skyroom arrow to the knee line, because all of the NCR soldiers just kind of repeated over and over again.
13:20 --> 13:30 [SPEAKER_00]: So it's the fact that they made a character who is literally being mind-controlled and lobotomized with the device.
13:30 --> 13:32 [SPEAKER_00]: It's say that over and over.
13:33 --> 13:34 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it was pretty fantastic.
13:34 --> 13:35 [SPEAKER_00]: I thought it was great.
13:36 --> 13:40 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that reminds me, I actually have a crazy story to tell you.
13:40 --> 13:42 [SPEAKER_01]: I, you know, I used to be an adventurer.
13:44 --> 13:45 [SPEAKER_00]: And then I took an arrow to the knee.
13:45 --> 13:47 [SPEAKER_00]: I took an arrow to the knee.
13:48 --> 13:49 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, so stupid.
13:49 --> 13:55 [SPEAKER_00]: That's better than Maximus taking a human tooth to the shoulder in season one.
13:57 --> 13:59 [SPEAKER_01]: Wait, what?
13:59 --> 14:20 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't remember that it's it was kind of an easy one to miss, but when Maximus and Lucy in season one were crossing that bridge and you had the like cannibals coming from the other side, what gets shot into his shoulder was actually a human tooth and that's why he had like kind of an infection that the vault dwellers had to heal for him.
14:21 --> 14:27 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, okay, I think I think I like do
14:27 --> 14:39 [SPEAKER_00]: It was a very small detail, but poor Maximus man, he's just been through it and he was really going through it this episode, but we'll get to him.
14:40 --> 14:42 [SPEAKER_00]: I wanted to talk about shady sands just a little bit more.
14:42 --> 14:43 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
14:43 --> 14:45 [SPEAKER_00]: What did you think about Maximus family?
14:46 --> 14:47 [SPEAKER_01]: you know, they seem nice.
14:47 --> 14:49 [SPEAKER_01]: I really do feel bad for the dude.
14:50 --> 14:53 [SPEAKER_01]: Um, like his his mother seemed like a nice loving mother.
14:53 --> 15:01 [SPEAKER_01]: His dad was obviously the same way, but like you got listed, uh, he he had to be some kind of an engineer or like a scientist.
15:03 --> 15:06 [SPEAKER_01]: Because he was trying to diffuse that shit and he almost did.
15:07 --> 15:13 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he came really close, but Hank McLean thinks of everything, P.O.S.
15:14 --> 15:15 [SPEAKER_00]: Truly, he's terrible.
15:16 --> 15:20 [SPEAKER_00]: And he also tapped into a clean water source under shady sands.
15:20 --> 15:22 [SPEAKER_00]: What a drag man.
15:22 --> 15:30 [SPEAKER_00]: You literally the day that you finish creating a well that will get clean water to a whole city.
15:30 --> 15:37 [SPEAKER_01]: The city blows up.
15:38 --> 15:51 [SPEAKER_00]: I saw an interview with Ron Pearlman talking about the fallout games and how when he did the voice over for the first fallout game, he kind of forgot that he did it because they paid him literally $40 a sandwich.
15:52 --> 15:56 [SPEAKER_00]: And so when they asked him to do the second one, he was like, I don't remember that, but I guess I'll do it.
15:56 --> 15:57 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
15:58 --> 16:13 [SPEAKER_01]: I always think stuff like that's kind of funny like someone who has like, like a line that's like very important and impactful and like future entries and stuff like obviously didn't know it was going to be that important one like they
16:14 --> 16:17 [SPEAKER_01]: Do you know, did it for the first time for look a game or whatever?
16:17 --> 16:18 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that's cool.
16:19 --> 16:20 [SPEAKER_00]: It is really cool.
16:21 --> 16:22 [SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk about area 51.
16:22 --> 16:25 [SPEAKER_00]: They, yeah, a race from the Sands.
16:26 --> 16:28 [SPEAKER_00]: They put a fusion core, which once it fall out.
16:29 --> 16:32 [SPEAKER_00]: Fusion cores are like the catch all, whatever you need them to do.
16:32 --> 16:33 [SPEAKER_00]: They can kind of do it.
16:33 --> 16:35 [SPEAKER_00]: They can power your power armor.
16:35 --> 16:37 [SPEAKER_00]: They can, you're very, very dear.
16:38 --> 16:39 [SPEAKER_01]: You're gone.
16:39 --> 16:40 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, anything.
16:41 --> 16:48 [SPEAKER_01]: if it uses power and they don't want to come up with like a different mechanic for it it's powered by a fusion core obviously.
16:48 --> 16:56 [SPEAKER_00]: We learned that the Knights of San Fernando who that's Max's chapter by the way are the Knights of San Fernando.
16:56 --> 17:00 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think they've ever actually set it in the show that that's his chapter.
17:00 --> 17:03 [SPEAKER_02]: They've just kind of-
17:03 --> 17:10 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I had to look this one up when I was looking up all of the different brotherhood chapters that were in this episode.
17:11 --> 17:15 [SPEAKER_00]: The Knights of San Fernando, Yosemite, Coronado, Grand Canyon.
17:15 --> 17:18 [SPEAKER_00]: Those are all new for the show.
17:19 --> 17:23 [SPEAKER_00]: The only returning chapter that we have seen in previous things.
17:23 --> 17:28 [SPEAKER_00]: It was Paladin, Harkness as chapter, the Commonwealth, and that's the East Coast chapter.
17:28 --> 17:29 [SPEAKER_02]: Right.
17:31 --> 17:32 [SPEAKER_00]: In Area 51.
17:32 --> 17:34 [SPEAKER_00]: You'd notice anything fun.
17:35 --> 17:44 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, there was a really nice ice box And there was something interested in there, but I don't know could tell you
17:45 --> 18:10 [SPEAKER_00]: this whole thing really just highlighted how much the brotherhood doesn't care about their mission of preserving pre-war technology anymore because number one, they just kind of shove an alien out of the fridge, which that's a Zayton alien we did a whole lore episode on them so if you would like to learn a little bit about them, there is I believe a 45 minute episode all about them.
18:10 --> 18:11 [SPEAKER_00]: So go on.
18:11 --> 18:13 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we were going to make it quick.
18:13 --> 18:14 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
18:14 --> 18:15 [SPEAKER_00]: We're going to make it quick.
18:16 --> 18:18 [SPEAKER_00]: We famous last words always.
18:18 --> 18:20 [SPEAKER_02]: This is going to be a quick one.
18:22 --> 18:23 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, we have two episodes to cover.
18:23 --> 18:26 [SPEAKER_00]: So I didn't even want to put that into being.
18:26 --> 18:30 [SPEAKER_00]: We would have been here for three hours if I had said this was going to be a quick episode.
18:30 --> 18:31 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we would.
18:31 --> 18:34 [SPEAKER_01]: And you never know this time.
18:34 --> 18:38 [SPEAKER_00]: And then
18:38 --> 18:41 [SPEAKER_00]: the whole blowing up the car.
18:41 --> 18:43 [SPEAKER_00]: Like these guys are just such assholes.
18:43 --> 18:43 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate them.
18:44 --> 18:46 [SPEAKER_01]: I can't think of the brotherhood stuff like that.
18:46 --> 18:55 [SPEAKER_01]: I feel like they're just trying to be like, they're trying to evoke helly energy with just blowing up a random car.
18:56 --> 18:58 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, there's no benefit to that.
18:58 --> 19:01 [SPEAKER_01]: It's just like an explosion.
19:01 --> 19:03 [SPEAKER_02]: Like, what was the idea?
19:03 --> 19:10 [SPEAKER_00]: Literally, just between the fights that they have with one another, these stupid pit fights that are so wasteful.
19:10 --> 19:19 [SPEAKER_00]: They, the brotherhood already has such low membership because they are so isolationist, and they're going to be fighting each other to the death in their power armor.
19:20 --> 19:21 [SPEAKER_00]: You're damaging the power armor.
19:21 --> 19:23 [SPEAKER_00]: You're blowing up cars.
19:23 --> 19:26 [SPEAKER_00]: You're killing each other in some situations.
19:26 --> 19:29 [SPEAKER_00]: You're playing with plasma grenades.
19:29 --> 19:31 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, what are you doing?
19:31 --> 19:47 [SPEAKER_00]: the one that just kept turning it on if you know when Maximus in this short span of time has grown up to be the only serious person in the brotherhood things are bad because he's such an un-serious character.
19:47 --> 19:49 [SPEAKER_01]: He was so goofy in season one.
19:50 --> 19:51 [SPEAKER_01]: What was it?
19:51 --> 19:53 [SPEAKER_01]: Do you want to, do you want to have sex right now?
19:56 --> 19:57 [SPEAKER_00]: You know, intercourse.
19:58 --> 20:20 [SPEAKER_00]: And that was, I thought about that a lot in this episode when Harkness and Max were in the vertebrate together and Harkness is like, can we just be heart-dick for a second and Max looks at him in horror for a second because you just know that he doesn't know what that means and he's like scared of the implications of it.
20:21 --> 20:23 [SPEAKER_00]: But it was really funny.
20:24 --> 20:36 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I like how they like I like that then discovering area 51 though did give us like Some insight into like what the US was doing to prep for the end of the world.
20:36 --> 20:41 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because like they had I think I think the declaration was there
20:41 --> 20:43 [SPEAKER_00]: The declaration was there.
20:43 --> 20:46 [SPEAKER_00]: They had tuition like shit like that, you know, starry night.
20:47 --> 20:51 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, they had a bunch of different artwork and statues.
20:51 --> 20:52 [SPEAKER_00]: So.
20:52 --> 20:53 [SPEAKER_00]: It was cool.
20:53 --> 20:57 [SPEAKER_00]: It was fun that they had the alien, the area 51 not though.
20:57 --> 21:01 [SPEAKER_00]: If they didn't have an alien in an area 51, I would have been disappointed.
21:02 --> 21:02 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
21:02 --> 21:03 [SPEAKER_01]: And I like that it was that.
21:03 --> 21:05 [SPEAKER_01]: Zaitan specifically.
21:05 --> 21:06 [SPEAKER_01]: I love the Zaitan aliens.
21:06 --> 21:07 [SPEAKER_01]: They're so silly.
21:08 --> 21:08 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they are.
21:09 --> 21:12 [SPEAKER_00]: And let's talk about these chapters for a minute.
21:12 --> 21:15 [SPEAKER_00]: Because like I said, they're almost all new for the show.
21:15 --> 21:20 [SPEAKER_00]: We already said that Max is they're the Knights of San Fernando.
21:21 --> 21:35 [SPEAKER_00]: which is interesting that they have that full title we have not seen before a chapter that are specifically the Knights of which I don't know if that has any broader implications but
21:35 --> 21:55 [SPEAKER_00]: Harkinous comments that these guys have a lot of clerics skittering around and then he does a little skittering sounds got a skull skull sound yeah exactly and he's completely right that every chapter is just a little bit different from one another and that's on full display we get Yosemite who
21:55 --> 22:06 [SPEAKER_00]: This is the chapter who says they don't like the religious aspect of the Brotherhood of Steel, which is true of a lot of the chapters that they don't really mess with the whole cult aspect of it.
22:06 --> 22:22 [SPEAKER_01]: I feel like most of the Brotherhood chapters that we see and interact with are definitely like on the militaristic side, not really, they're not really praise, I don't even remember how the Brotherhood religion works honestly.
22:23 --> 22:27 [SPEAKER_00]: It's not really consistent, it's just kind of vibes based.
22:27 --> 22:28 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah, love that.
22:29 --> 22:35 [SPEAKER_00]: It's just kind of like, if we can justify our actions by saying, God wants us to do it then.
22:35 --> 22:37 [SPEAKER_00]: think God wants us to do it.
22:37 --> 22:38 [SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.
22:39 --> 22:42 [SPEAKER_00]: And like you said, we've seen the militaristic ones a lot.
22:42 --> 22:45 [SPEAKER_00]: That would encompass the commonwealth, the East Coast chapter.
22:45 --> 22:48 [SPEAKER_00]: They're very much hell, yeah, back in black.
22:49 --> 22:50 [SPEAKER_02]: Who brought up?
22:51 --> 22:52 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, exactly.
22:52 --> 22:52 [SPEAKER_00]: That's their vibe.
22:53 --> 22:54 [SPEAKER_00]: And
22:55 --> 23:07 [SPEAKER_00]: we see all of the chapters kind of in agreement that if they get into a civil war with the commonwealth and their current state commonwealth is going to kick their asses which is pretty true.
23:08 --> 23:15 [SPEAKER_00]: The commonwealth has a lot but maybe not as strong as we think that they are because Harkness says that they're kind of up against a wall.
23:15 --> 23:16 [SPEAKER_00]: What do you think about that?
23:17 --> 23:23 [SPEAKER_01]: I think I'm trying to think where does the show take place like timeline wise?
23:23 --> 23:28 [SPEAKER_00]: I believe it is like 10, 15 years after fall out for.
23:29 --> 23:30 [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
23:30 --> 23:36 [SPEAKER_01]: So I'm thinking maybe, and I don't think they're gonna canonize any endings of any of the games.
23:36 --> 23:39 [SPEAKER_01]: So I think that was kind of their whole idea.
23:39 --> 23:52 [SPEAKER_01]: But I think the outcome of four very well could be why the brotherhood is up against the wall or at least in part, like a part of why the brotherhood is up against the wall.
23:53 --> 23:56 [SPEAKER_01]: it to maybe something didn't work out so well for them.
23:57 --> 24:05 [SPEAKER_01]: And or they're just kind of getting overrun with different monsters and stuff at this point you never know.
24:05 --> 24:05 [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
24:06 --> 24:13 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, because DC and Boston have a bit of a super mutant problem in the cities.
24:13 --> 24:16 [SPEAKER_00]: They've run around and not the
24:16 --> 24:26 [SPEAKER_00]: Not the intelligent kind, who just want to live peacefully and get their NCRs to the root type ones.
24:27 --> 24:36 [SPEAKER_00]: Exactly, the second generations and beyond, which if you are just a show watcher, you probably have no idea what a super union is.
24:37 --> 24:43 [SPEAKER_00]: Basically, just think of the Hulk.
24:43 --> 24:44 [SPEAKER_00]: That too.
24:44 --> 24:44 [SPEAKER_00]: That works.
24:44 --> 24:46 [SPEAKER_00]: I like that one a little bit better.
24:47 --> 24:47 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
24:47 --> 24:51 [SPEAKER_01]: So giant irradiated evil shrack.
24:51 --> 24:52 [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
24:52 --> 24:54 [SPEAKER_01]: And they're pretty stupid for the most part.
24:54 --> 24:54 [SPEAKER_01]: I think.
24:55 --> 24:56 [SPEAKER_00]: They're stupid.
24:56 --> 24:58 [SPEAKER_00]: They're aggressive.
24:58 --> 25:04 [SPEAKER_00]: The first generation of super mutants that were made in the prewar and like immediate postwar period.
25:05 --> 25:06 [SPEAKER_00]: They're intelligent.
25:06 --> 25:10 [SPEAKER_00]: They have human or above human intelligence.
25:11 --> 25:12 [SPEAKER_00]: They
25:13 --> 25:20 [SPEAKER_00]: There's a whole history behind that I think that we did an episode on the master story of Fallout 1 and there's a lot of influence.
25:21 --> 25:22 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
25:22 --> 25:26 [SPEAKER_00]: So go ahead and check that out.
25:26 --> 25:28 [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like I'm plugging my merch this episode.
25:30 --> 25:30 [SPEAKER_01]: You are.
25:30 --> 25:31 [SPEAKER_01]: It's okay.
25:31 --> 25:35 [SPEAKER_01]: Guys, make sure to click the link in bio, like and subscribe.
25:35 --> 25:39 [SPEAKER_01]: Or, um, yeah, I got nothing.
25:39 --> 25:41 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm trying to come up with some click baiti sounding thing.
25:42 --> 25:45 [SPEAKER_00]: got to do our self-promotion doodads here.
25:45 --> 25:45 [SPEAKER_00]: Don't we?
25:46 --> 25:47 [SPEAKER_00]: Are doodads?
25:48 --> 25:49 [SPEAKER_00]: Self-promotion doodads.
25:49 --> 25:50 [SPEAKER_00]: Anyway.
25:50 --> 25:51 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
25:51 --> 25:51 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
25:52 --> 25:52 [SPEAKER_00]: Let's move on.
25:53 --> 25:56 [SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk about the other chapters that we see.
25:56 --> 25:57 [SPEAKER_00]: We have Coronado.
25:57 --> 25:59 [SPEAKER_00]: They're the ones who are really sexist.
26:00 --> 26:07 [SPEAKER_00]: And then we have the Grand Canyon Brotherhood which is the chapter that apparently likes to have fun with robots.
26:08 --> 26:10 [SPEAKER_00]: But apparently that squire was well within his rights.
26:11 --> 26:14 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't think that square was well within his rights.
26:14 --> 26:18 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, what was he trying to do to that robot?
26:18 --> 26:22 [SPEAKER_02]: He just was assuming the position as Fisto would say.
26:22 --> 26:25 [SPEAKER_02]: Assume the position.
26:25 --> 26:49 [SPEAKER_00]: Not only that, but I think that the Grand Canyon elder might have been, his appearance could have been a little nod to the new Vegas companion Eddie, which is a little eye-bought robot that has been patched up with an old license plate, and I think that the license plate, that the guy has on his forehead patching him up might be a little bit of an Eddie reference there.
26:50 --> 26:54 [SPEAKER_00]: I could be completely grasping its straws here to connect things, but
26:54 --> 26:55 [SPEAKER_01]: Uh, I see it.
26:55 --> 26:56 [SPEAKER_01]: I see the vision twin.
26:57 --> 26:57 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
26:58 --> 27:04 [SPEAKER_00]: And then we get a little bit of a fight pit moment between Max and a night from the Coronado chapter.
27:04 --> 27:07 [SPEAKER_00]: Somehow Max wins this thing.
27:07 --> 27:09 [SPEAKER_00]: Mac, I was big and scary looking.
27:09 --> 27:12 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, but Max locked in.
27:13 --> 27:13 [SPEAKER_00]: he did.
27:13 --> 27:18 [SPEAKER_00]: And you know what, Elder Quintus, he sucks man.
27:18 --> 27:20 [SPEAKER_00]: He's just so odd.
27:20 --> 27:21 [SPEAKER_01]: You're wrinkly old man.
27:21 --> 27:22 [SPEAKER_01]: Well, I like all him.
27:23 --> 27:26 [SPEAKER_01]: I think I texted you and called him to wrink the old boss act man.
27:27 --> 27:28 [SPEAKER_00]: that is a great description for him.
27:28 --> 27:29 [SPEAKER_00]: He's awful.
27:30 --> 27:37 [SPEAKER_00]: This guy, one minute, he's calling Maximus his son and talking about how the two of them are going to reshape the brotherhood together.
27:37 --> 27:41 [SPEAKER_00]: They're going to craft a new wasteland worth living in.
27:41 --> 27:45 [SPEAKER_00]: And then he's like, wow, you're so stupid.
27:45 --> 27:46 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you.
27:46 --> 27:49 [SPEAKER_01]: You really sell them on the dream.
27:49 --> 27:55 [SPEAKER_01]: And then proceeds to
27:55 --> 28:08 [SPEAKER_00]: He's just such a classic manipulative abuser in that way, where his affection is just so conditional, as long as you're doing exactly what he wants you to do, you're in his good graces.
28:08 --> 28:14 [SPEAKER_00]: But the second you step out of line or don't read his mind to figure out what's going on, he's just going to throw you away.
28:14 --> 28:16 [SPEAKER_00]: So this guy sucks.
28:17 --> 28:23 [SPEAKER_00]: I hope that Maximus wakes up and kills him,
28:23 --> 28:50 [SPEAKER_01]: on his side yeah I think you're right on that it's unfortunate but I suppose it happens to the best of us well hot dog Richard would you think about paladin hardness I he was trying too hard to win maximize over I think like it was too I don't know how to explain it I guess it felt too scripted
28:50 --> 28:51 [SPEAKER_01]: on his end.
28:51 --> 28:51 [SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean?
28:51 --> 28:58 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, and I guess that's supposed to be obvious, but I just I think that that's why it didn't work.
28:58 --> 29:00 [SPEAKER_01]: And then there was obviously other reasons why it didn't work.
29:01 --> 29:14 [SPEAKER_01]: But that's like the main, I think even if the whole thing at the end didn't happen, we still like Max missed still wouldn't have taken his side, even though he probably should.
29:15 --> 29:23 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I think that season one Maximus would have definitely drank the cool little bit more because he was a lot more gullible in that season.
29:23 --> 29:31 [SPEAKER_00]: Not to say that he's not gullible in this season because that's definitely a big part of his character and I think that he's starting to grow out of it.
29:32 --> 29:37 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he is not as bad anymore.
29:37 --> 29:43 [SPEAKER_00]: His time with Lucy, his time out in the wasteland really forced him to grow up a little bit.
29:44 --> 29:49 [SPEAKER_00]: You know, who kind of made me mad in these episodes for like no good reason.
29:50 --> 29:50 [SPEAKER_01]: Who?
29:51 --> 29:51 [SPEAKER_00]: Dane.
29:51 --> 29:56 [SPEAKER_01]: Dane was, so I don't Dane was in season one, obviously.
29:56 --> 30:00 [SPEAKER_01]: Was that the, that's like wire with the razors in the boot?
30:01 --> 30:03 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, like Maximus is best friend.
30:03 --> 30:09 [SPEAKER_00]: And they, I feel, in the, at the end of the last season, they're the one who,
30:09 --> 30:18 [SPEAKER_00]: Haralded Maximus as Night Maximus, the savior of the Brotherhood, and now Maximus is like drinking the Brotherhood cool-aid and they're all pissed off about it.
30:19 --> 30:28 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know why that switch up happened, but it just kind of feels weird from the end of last season into this season to have that as a plot point.
30:29 --> 30:32 [SPEAKER_01]: Because it hasn't been like uninsane amount of time between the seasons, right?
30:33 --> 30:36 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I think we were talking in our first episode or maybe our preview.
30:36 --> 30:38 [SPEAKER_01]: I think we said what a few weeks probably.
30:39 --> 30:40 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
30:40 --> 30:40 [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe a month?
30:41 --> 30:44 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it hasn't been super long for sure.
30:45 --> 30:50 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's like that seems like a pretty crazy switch up in that amount of time.
30:50 --> 30:57 [SPEAKER_01]: You know, if it's been like year, I could totally see that like complete kind of like roll reverse, so happening.
30:59 --> 31:01 [SPEAKER_01]: But it just seems, I don't know.
31:02 --> 31:02 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
31:03 --> 31:13 [SPEAKER_00]: I guess when the two of them are talking about how Maximus is such a codex follower now and Dane and Maximus
31:14 --> 31:18 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, it's just I'm not really sold on the whole shift that they have here.
31:19 --> 31:26 [SPEAKER_00]: We just need to see if they wanted to do that, they should have shown us a little bit more of Dane and made us carry out this character.
31:26 --> 31:28 [SPEAKER_01]: It's too like artificial, I feel like.
31:29 --> 31:34 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, but that was really my only major gripe with the Brotherhood plot line in this episode.
31:34 --> 31:39 [SPEAKER_00]: I thought that, or in these two episodes, I thought that everything else was really well executed.
31:39 --> 31:49 [SPEAKER_00]: And the Brotherhood was hateful in a way that was intentional and fantastic because you should hate the Brotherhood, they suck.
31:50 --> 32:00 [SPEAKER_00]: We do see Paladin, Harkness, and Max taking out a secure hatron who has gone haywire, which was a pretty fun thing.
32:00 --> 32:03 [SPEAKER_00]: Not the only secure hatron that we see in the episode.
32:05 --> 32:06 [SPEAKER_01]: Where did we see another one?
32:08 --> 32:08 [SPEAKER_00]: Don't worry.
32:08 --> 32:11 [SPEAKER_00]: We'll get to good old victor when we talk about the... Oh, wait.
32:11 --> 32:12 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
32:12 --> 32:12 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
32:12 --> 32:15 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm stupid.
32:15 --> 32:17 [SPEAKER_00]: We'll get to our good friend, Victor.
32:17 --> 32:18 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
32:20 --> 32:21 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh God, hardness and max.
32:22 --> 32:24 [SPEAKER_00]: They stumble upon Thaddeus' sweatshop.
32:25 --> 32:32 [SPEAKER_00]: And I was pretty proud of Thaddeus for standing in the way and stepping up for those kids, even though he's exploiting them a little bit.
32:32 --> 32:36 [SPEAKER_00]: He still put his life on the line to try and protect them.
32:36 --> 32:43 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that he sees a mutually beneficial relationship and all of this, you know, the kids get the soda, he gets the money.
32:43 --> 32:48 [SPEAKER_00]: I think he cares about them a little bit, even if he's making them do 22 hour shifts.
32:48 --> 32:55 [SPEAKER_01]: At least enough to save their lives and like put his life on the line, which is commendable.
32:55 --> 32:57 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, for someone who's exploiting children.
32:57 --> 32:59 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, exactly.
32:59 --> 33:06 [SPEAKER_00]: And you know, he did comfort lowest or no, lowest was the girl who was mean to the other kid.
33:06 --> 33:18 [SPEAKER_00]: I can't remember which kid was being bullied, but then he proceeded to bully Harry, the like really glorified kid and be like,
33:18 --> 33:20 [SPEAKER_00]: like, what are we doing?
33:20 --> 33:27 [SPEAKER_00]: Is this the same kid that he was like, just take off your gloves and really dig your palms into the bottle caps to get him off?
33:28 --> 33:30 [SPEAKER_01]: Well, I mean, the advocates are cool.
33:30 --> 33:31 [SPEAKER_01]: He's not a smooth skin like us.
33:34 --> 33:37 [SPEAKER_01]: I do not condone ghoul racism.
33:37 --> 33:41 [SPEAKER_00]: No, ghouls are they deserve right?
33:42 --> 33:44 [SPEAKER_00]: What do you think about the whole super sledge take down?
33:45 --> 33:47 [SPEAKER_01]: That's like one of my favorite weapons in the game.
33:48 --> 33:50 [SPEAKER_01]: It's, you know, my top three like melee weapons.
33:50 --> 33:52 [SPEAKER_01]: We got, we got the super sledge.
33:52 --> 33:59 [SPEAKER_01]: We got the power fist and we got really any like medieval themed weapons for melee.
33:59 --> 34:02 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, like give me a night, so a templar sword and I'm happy.
34:02 --> 34:03 [SPEAKER_01]: There's,
34:05 --> 34:18 [SPEAKER_00]: A lot of interesting melee weapons in New Vegas, there's like swords made out of car bumpers, there's handheld chain saws, there's, there's just a lot of the death claw gauntlet.
34:18 --> 34:26 [SPEAKER_00]: The death claw gauntlet, which made a return in Fallout 4, I want to say it might have been in Fallout 3, as well as like a craftable item.
34:26 --> 34:28 [SPEAKER_01]: Thank you.
34:28 --> 34:31 [SPEAKER_00]: But the craft is the same thing in a sucked.
34:31 --> 34:33 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the crafting system,
34:33 --> 34:35 [SPEAKER_01]: durability dude, durability.
34:36 --> 34:41 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I am not a fan of the durability system in Fallout 3.
34:41 --> 34:47 [SPEAKER_00]: They made it a lot more easy to manage in New Vegas, but in 3 it was a slog to keep your weapon.
34:47 --> 34:50 [SPEAKER_01]: It was bad and I feel like it was pretty bad in 76.
34:51 --> 34:54 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they did make it a little bit ridiculous in 76.
34:55 --> 35:00 [SPEAKER_00]: I just having to manage your weapon durability is such a drag on the gameplay.
35:00 --> 35:01 [SPEAKER_00]: It's not fun.
35:01 --> 35:31 [SPEAKER_01]: at least make it like more realistic because like I get that a hammer obviously a hammer you know because that's what that's just like the easiest thing for me to pull right now you know hammering nails in I get it you're not gonna like inflict as much wear and tear versus like hammering someone's skull in but I still feel like it with last you more than 20 hits or or 100 hits of a hammer I mean
35:31 --> 35:50 [SPEAKER_01]: Just make it some more, like I saw, I saw people talking about this on, I think it was Instagram the other day, like it was on a fallout post and they were saying like, what if they made it so that only I'm like heavy attacks, you lose durability or whatever, but they make it more like incentivizing to use heavy attacks.
35:51 --> 35:57 [SPEAKER_01]: Something like that where you're not forced to destroy your weapon after, I don't know, I'm rambling, I gotta stop.
35:59 --> 36:00 [SPEAKER_00]: No, I agree.
36:00 --> 36:03 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that that's, um, it's just, there's a better way to do it.
36:05 --> 36:05 [SPEAKER_01]: All right.
36:05 --> 36:23 [SPEAKER_01]: So, yeah, Lucy in the school had for Vegas, the four getting sidetracked by a, by a man and a woman that the goal first to as tunics, they get, then get ambushed by a red scorpion and it's brewed and Lucy takes the woman who survives with her and saves her instead of the goal.
36:24 --> 36:28 [SPEAKER_01]: Lucy is then taken prisoner by Kai's art's legion.
36:28 --> 36:30 [SPEAKER_00]: So let's talk about the Legion a little bit.
36:31 --> 36:33 [SPEAKER_00]: Tunex was a new term for me.
36:33 --> 36:39 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think that I've ever heard them referred to as Tunex before, but that is, of course, a reference to Caesar's Legion.
36:39 --> 36:46 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if it's a specific term that the Google was using to talk about the legions, like slaves, or if...
36:46 --> 36:53 [SPEAKER_00]: That's just their nickname in general to him, but the Legion essentially brutal slivers and conquerors.
36:54 --> 36:56 [SPEAKER_00]: They're no better than Raiders in most cases.
36:57 --> 36:59 [SPEAKER_00]: And now they're in a civil war.
36:59 --> 37:03 [SPEAKER_00]: And one of those major players in the civil war is McCulley Kolkin.
37:04 --> 37:06 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Kevin McAlister.
37:06 --> 37:11 [SPEAKER_00]: Kevin McAlister, who since being abandoned by his parents has been
37:11 --> 37:13 [SPEAKER_00]: now renamed to Lucerta like it.
37:14 --> 37:27 [SPEAKER_00]: So, like it is his title, Lucerta is apparently his name, which Lucerta means lizard in Latin, which might give a little bit of a clue to his character.
37:27 --> 37:32 [SPEAKER_00]: He might be a little slithery, a little sneaky, a little duplicitous?
37:33 --> 37:35 [SPEAKER_00]: Just a little bit duplicitous.
37:35 --> 37:37 [SPEAKER_00]: What do you think this guy is after?
37:37 --> 37:39 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not convinced about the Legion angle.
37:41 --> 38:08 [SPEAKER_01]: I think he could hear me out, he could be one of Buds Buds or something like that, or or like he's a plant, he's got to be a plant and actually instead of Buds Buds, which I have something to say about that, but instead of Buds Buds, maybe he's like a Mr. House
38:09 --> 38:14 [SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk very briefly about what's his name?
38:14 --> 38:15 [SPEAKER_00]: Victor.
38:16 --> 38:25 [SPEAKER_00]: Victor is the secure-a-tron that the rule runs across in Camp Golf, which is the old NCR Ranger headquarters in the Mojave.
38:25 --> 38:28 [SPEAKER_00]: That's why he goes looking for the NCR there to help him.
38:29 --> 38:33 [SPEAKER_00]: Victor seems to say that house is gone.
38:33 --> 38:36 [SPEAKER_00]: And the goal is like, yeah, I really doubt that.
38:36 --> 38:38 [SPEAKER_00]: That guy had a contingency plan for everything.
38:38 --> 38:43 [SPEAKER_00]: So let's say that Mr. House's physical body is dead.
38:44 --> 38:46 [SPEAKER_00]: He's probably got a backup of his brain somewhere.
38:46 --> 38:51 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, he's uploaded to the computer system or something.
38:51 --> 38:52 [SPEAKER_00]: exactly.
38:52 --> 39:05 [SPEAKER_00]: And we know that this is possible because he has other robots, like other secure trons that have the personality and memories of his favorite, like, girlfriend's upload.
39:05 --> 39:21 [SPEAKER_01]: And also, but I ask instead of it, like uploaded his, I mean, I know he was still bringing out a room, but he, you know, it's somewhat the same concept and I feel like Mr. House
39:22 --> 39:22 [SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely.
39:22 --> 39:27 [SPEAKER_00]: Mr. House dedicated so much of his time and his resources to figuring out how to cheat death.
39:28 --> 39:38 [SPEAKER_00]: So even if his like real body is dead and he's just living on as a bunch of data stored in a computer, that's better than nothing for him.
39:38 --> 39:38 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
39:38 --> 39:39 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
39:39 --> 39:46 [SPEAKER_00]: which maybe he's shut down and like, because it seems like he doesn't have much control over his secure trons.
39:46 --> 39:52 [SPEAKER_00]: There's one going, hey, wire in the factory that Max and Paladin Harkness go to.
39:52 --> 40:00 [SPEAKER_00]: So I think that he's out of commission for the moment and Lucy and the Guru are gonna do something to wake him back up.
40:01 --> 40:05 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
40:05 --> 40:06 [SPEAKER_00]: Speaking of the Legion,
40:07 --> 40:14 [SPEAKER_00]: This whole civil war situation, this is exactly what Mr. House said was going to happen.
40:14 --> 40:16 [SPEAKER_00]: in Fallout New Vegas.
40:16 --> 40:23 [SPEAKER_00]: He talks about the Legion and he's like, you know, these guys are essentially a cult of personality centered around Caesar.
40:23 --> 40:37 [SPEAKER_00]: As soon as he dies, yeah, they're probably going to rally and try and do a tribute to Caesar by taking the dam or pulling off some kind of great
40:37 --> 40:48 [SPEAKER_00]: But eventually, they're just going to devolve back into a bunch of warring factions that are just as much at each other's throats as they are at the NCR's throat.
40:50 --> 40:54 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, I think you're right because they have devolved.
40:54 --> 41:00 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, they really are doing some stupid shit.
41:00 --> 41:01 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
41:01 --> 41:01 [SPEAKER_00]: Let's be clear.
41:01 --> 41:06 [SPEAKER_00]: They were doing all this really stupid stuff before Caesar was dead.
41:07 --> 41:12 [SPEAKER_00]: There was just kind of a larger amount of control over them.
41:12 --> 41:16 [SPEAKER_00]: They were still brutal raiders and horrible people.
41:17 --> 41:23 [SPEAKER_00]: But a lot of the traders from Arizona and New Mexico were like, well, at least the roads are safe.
41:24 --> 41:30 [SPEAKER_01]: I doubt that's the case anymore.
41:30 --> 41:35 [SPEAKER_00]: No, and also women have no rights and our slaves in Caesar's legion.
41:36 --> 41:40 [SPEAKER_00]: So that's, um, that's, that's, that's wonderful.
41:40 --> 41:41 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
41:41 --> 41:42 [SPEAKER_01]: That's, that's so great.
41:42 --> 41:45 [SPEAKER_01]: What do you mean, a paradise on earth?
41:46 --> 41:46 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
41:46 --> 41:53 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, these guys are just, they're a whole other level of vile and evil in this universe.
41:54 --> 42:12 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, which is, which is wild because like, in terms of vial and evil like organizations, there's so many to choose from and fall out that are just horrible and yet they managed to bring a different like form of it and and they do it just as horribly as like vault tech.
42:13 --> 42:15 [SPEAKER_00]: I honestly don't know who's worse.
42:15 --> 42:19 [SPEAKER_00]: The Enclave Caesar's Legion or vault tech.
42:19 --> 42:21 [SPEAKER_00]: It's really such a
42:23 --> 42:33 [SPEAKER_01]: I'd like to save Vault Tech because the on-claves, well, maybe not so much the on-claves, but Caesar's religion is definitely like a product of circumstance.
42:34 --> 42:35 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
42:35 --> 42:38 [SPEAKER_01]: Whereas the on clay of they were kind of around with the like pre war, right?
42:38 --> 42:40 [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, they were.
42:41 --> 42:41 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
42:41 --> 42:50 [SPEAKER_01]: So like the on clay of the vault tech, those are just evil, or we're going to like evil organizations that were not forced into it.
42:51 --> 42:54 [SPEAKER_01]: Not that not that Caesar's Legion was.
42:54 --> 42:57 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm I'm doing a bad job of explaining this.
42:57 --> 42:58 [SPEAKER_01]: But like, you know what I mean?
42:59 --> 43:00 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
43:00 --> 43:02 [SPEAKER_00]: No, I think I get what you're saying.
43:03 --> 43:06 [SPEAKER_00]: It very much is like, you know, the wasteland is brutal.
43:06 --> 43:10 [SPEAKER_00]: So Caesar felt I need to be brutal to bring order to all of this.
43:11 --> 43:14 [SPEAKER_00]: But Caesar did grow up in the NCR.
43:14 --> 43:21 [SPEAKER_00]: Like he grew up with public radio and a school and he, like,
43:21 --> 43:24 [SPEAKER_00]: This is not someone who was mistreated as a child.
43:24 --> 43:29 [SPEAKER_00]: He was sent on a humanitarian mission to learn tribal languages when he was 20.
43:29 --> 43:33 [SPEAKER_00]: And he decided to turn those tribes into his brutal warband.
43:34 --> 43:36 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, this is just a guy who's kind of evil and crazy.
43:36 --> 43:37 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, okay.
43:37 --> 43:47 [SPEAKER_01]: And I never mind that honestly because, like, yes, obviously NCR civilization wasn't like pre-war, but it was still pretty nice.
43:47 --> 43:51 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, like,
43:52 --> 44:00 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it was nice and Caesar kind of focused on the bad parts of it when he talks about what was wrong with the NCR.
44:01 --> 44:11 [SPEAKER_00]: He brought up all of the corruption and the fact that the corporations and rich people were ruling things sound familiar.
44:11 --> 44:19 [SPEAKER_00]: And fall out, no, fall out, things repeating themselves, war never changing, or changes all the time, dude.
44:20 --> 44:21 [SPEAKER_00]: What are we talking about?
44:21 --> 44:32 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so there's just a whole slew of reasons why Caesar is kind of a hypocrite and is just justifying his own terrible actions, but he's dead now.
44:32 --> 44:36 [SPEAKER_00]: And even if they knew,
44:36 --> 44:46 [SPEAKER_00]: What his successor was named as in his pocket there and his magical little pocket the holy pocket the holy pocket I don't think it would have changed anything.
44:46 --> 44:48 [SPEAKER_00]: They still would have started killing each other
44:48 --> 45:11 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, yes, I think that's up that would've been a way of continuing the story if the Google hadn't done that, like I think what the Google did was great because like great plan just caused utter chaos, but if they had opened up the pocket and like found the note, whatever, it would just turn into what you guys planted it.
45:11 --> 45:16 [SPEAKER_01]: No, you guys planted it or
45:17 --> 45:18 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
45:19 --> 45:31 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't even think his successor is named on that note to be honest because the part that we can read says I am and then the second line is I am the and the rest of it is like cut off because it's folded in half.
45:31 --> 45:36 [SPEAKER_00]: But I think that it probably said something to the effect of I am Caesar.
45:36 --> 45:37 [SPEAKER_00]: I am the only Caesar.
45:38 --> 45:39 [SPEAKER_01]: Well, like I am the Legion.
45:40 --> 45:40 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
45:40 --> 45:41 [SPEAKER_01]: Top shit.
45:41 --> 45:45 [SPEAKER_01]: Like either guy was not giving up power even as he died.
45:45 --> 45:47 [SPEAKER_00]: No, he was not.
45:47 --> 45:55 [SPEAKER_00]: And fun little Easter egg, he has the same medical device on his skeletons arm that he had on during Fallout New Vegas.
45:55 --> 46:06 [SPEAKER_00]: That's his little monitor to track his progression of his brain cancer, which is, would be sad if it was any other character.
46:06 --> 46:08 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know about any other character.
46:09 --> 46:10 [SPEAKER_01]: Uh, hold on.
46:10 --> 46:14 [SPEAKER_01]: Let me let me cherry pick like the worst possible example.
46:14 --> 46:16 [SPEAKER_01]: Um, Hank McLean.
46:18 --> 46:27 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, speaking of Hank McLean, I don't have a section specifically dedicated to his plotline in these episodes because he was only in a little bit of episode two.
46:27 --> 46:32 [SPEAKER_00]: What did you think about his whole experimentation trying to further Mr. House of the stuff?
46:33 --> 46:35 [SPEAKER_01]: I hate him, but I want to see more.
46:35 --> 46:39 [SPEAKER_01]: I really do like the Hank sections, even though I despise him as a character.
46:40 --> 46:41 [SPEAKER_01]: He's got that drip.
46:41 --> 46:43 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got a gold pit boy on.
46:44 --> 46:44 [SPEAKER_00]: He does.
46:45 --> 46:58 [SPEAKER_00]: And that's a little reference to follow new Vegas's Pimp Boy 3000, which is a unique pit boy that you can get from Mick and Ralph shop in New Vegas in the other section of free side.
46:58 --> 47:03 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you literally can get a gold plated pit boy called the Pimp Boy 3000.
47:04 --> 47:05 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean that's cool.
47:06 --> 47:09 [SPEAKER_01]: I'll have to play new Vegas one day and get the Pimp Boy 3000.
47:11 --> 47:11 [SPEAKER_00]: It's pretty great.
47:13 --> 47:14 [SPEAKER_00]: I've only done it in one of my playthroughs.
47:15 --> 47:21 [SPEAKER_00]: I kind of forget about it because it's an unmarked quest that you have to do a lot of random stuff to make it happen.
47:21 --> 47:23 [SPEAKER_00]: It's more of an Easter egg than anything real.
47:24 --> 47:26 [SPEAKER_00]: It's still gonna get it because I'm goated.
47:26 --> 47:26 [SPEAKER_00]: You should.
47:27 --> 47:31 [SPEAKER_00]: Any thoughts on the Legion before we get into the ghoul?
47:32 --> 48:02 [SPEAKER_00]: not any like full blown thoughts just like I like the vibe I just like the the vibe of like Roman shit I don't like the other parts you know yes and the aesthetic that's the word just to be a little bit of a devil's advocate right here I don't know maybe that's not the right term but both Lucy and the Legion are technically correct about the Caesar pronunciation Caesar versus
48:02 --> 48:05 [SPEAKER_00]: ancient Latin pronunciation.
48:05 --> 48:12 [SPEAKER_00]: So at the time that the real Julius Caesar lived, it would have been Julius Kaisar, that kind of evolved.
48:12 --> 48:15 [SPEAKER_00]: The modern Latin version would be Caesar.
48:15 --> 48:24 [SPEAKER_00]: So Lucy with her knowledge of like modern Latin is correct, but them going off of like the Roman theme is also kind of correct.
48:24 --> 48:28 [SPEAKER_00]: So in a way they're both wrong and they're both right.
48:28 --> 48:29 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
48:29 --> 48:33 [SPEAKER_00]: Lucy is more correct because we don't really speak Latin like that anymore.
48:33 --> 48:41 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, nobody speaks Latin, unless you are a member of the clergy, but I speak Latin every day.
48:41 --> 48:43 [SPEAKER_01]: What do you mean?
48:43 --> 48:48 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, my two years of Latin classes really are pan-off here on earth.
48:48 --> 48:49 [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like I use it every single day.
48:50 --> 48:54 [SPEAKER_01]: You might use it more than I use my three years of Spanish.
48:54 --> 48:58 [SPEAKER_00]: I probably use my two years of Latin more than I use my seven years of Spanish.
48:59 --> 49:00 [SPEAKER_00]: Took seven years of Spanish.
49:01 --> 49:02 [SPEAKER_00]: I took seven years of Spanish.
49:02 --> 49:06 [SPEAKER_00]: I did two years in a way, actually, maybe eight years.
49:06 --> 49:12 [SPEAKER_00]: Two years in middle school, four years in high school and two years in college.
49:12 --> 49:13 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, shit.
49:13 --> 49:13 [SPEAKER_01]: Look at you.
49:13 --> 49:16 [SPEAKER_00]: And I can barely speak a word of Spanish.
49:17 --> 49:19 [SPEAKER_00]: The American Education System really failed.
49:20 --> 49:20 [SPEAKER_01]: Where's that library?
49:22 --> 49:28 [SPEAKER_02]: Love biblioteca.
49:29 --> 49:32 [SPEAKER_00]: Mayamo T bone a run your disco teca.
49:35 --> 49:36 [SPEAKER_00]: You don't know how I'm gonna do it.
49:36 --> 49:38 [SPEAKER_01]: I caught Mayamo because I know that one.
49:38 --> 49:42 [SPEAKER_01]: My name is no, I don't.
49:43 --> 49:45 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, the folks at home will get it.
49:45 --> 49:47 [SPEAKER_00]: You'll be here.
49:47 --> 49:48 [SPEAKER_00]: AI Richard is always done.
49:48 --> 49:49 [SPEAKER_00]: I know what's going on.
49:50 --> 49:54 [SPEAKER_00]: I think AI Richard knows more Spanish than flesh and blood Richard.
49:54 --> 49:55 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
49:55 --> 49:57 [SPEAKER_00]: I haven't really programmed the AI very well.
49:59 --> 49:59 [SPEAKER_01]: Right.
50:00 --> 50:00 [SPEAKER_00]: Right.
50:01 --> 50:01 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh.
50:01 --> 50:03 [SPEAKER_01]: Hey, I Aaron is coming along pretty well.
50:03 --> 50:05 [SPEAKER_01]: He knows more Spanish than you.
50:05 --> 50:09 [SPEAKER_00]: I feel- Hey, I Aaron is missing more ones and zeros than Victor.
50:09 --> 50:11 [SPEAKER_00]: Wow, dude.
50:12 --> 50:18 [SPEAKER_00]: Hey, I Aaron is not on par, but anyways, let's talk a little bit about the goal tracking down Lucy.
50:19 --> 50:20 [SPEAKER_00]: Hey.
50:20 --> 50:21 [SPEAKER_00]: meets Victor and Camp golf.
50:21 --> 50:23 [SPEAKER_00]: We already talked about this a little bit.
50:23 --> 50:25 [SPEAKER_00]: Victor is doing pretty much wood.
50:26 --> 50:38 [SPEAKER_00]: Victor always does in New Vegas where he plays dumb, but prods you in the right direction by sort of accidentally giving you information, but it's not really accidental.
50:38 --> 50:46 [SPEAKER_00]: He's very much manipulating you to do a certain thing by leaving you breadcrumbs and acting clueless.
50:47 --> 50:48 [SPEAKER_00]: He's very nunchal on.
50:49 --> 50:55 [SPEAKER_00]: He is kind of playing the idiot and mean while you're doing exactly what he wants without realizing it.
50:56 --> 50:56 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
50:56 --> 51:03 [SPEAKER_00]: Although I think that the goal probably knows Victor's MO and knows that that's happening because he's like, well, I'll see you down the line Victor.
51:04 --> 51:08 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, he knows that Victor is not done with him yet.
51:09 --> 51:16 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I also feel like after 200 years of being like alive, the goal's probably, well, more than 200 years actually,
51:18 --> 51:18 [SPEAKER_01]: What?
51:18 --> 51:19 [SPEAKER_01]: Well, we'll say 250?
51:19 --> 51:21 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, probably.
51:21 --> 51:22 [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
51:22 --> 51:34 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, after being alive for like 250 years, if you can't read people and I guess robots, well, I feel like you got to be doing something wrong, you know?
51:34 --> 51:38 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and I mean, not only has
51:38 --> 51:46 [SPEAKER_00]: He had all this time to develop his ability to read people through his skills as an actor and everything that he's done post war.
51:46 --> 51:49 [SPEAKER_00]: But he's known Victor since the post war period.
51:49 --> 51:55 [SPEAKER_00]: Like he's gonna meet Victor at some point during the prewar timeline when he goes to Vegas.
51:55 --> 52:04 [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe he's the next episode because I know that we're getting Cooper in Mr. House's casino in the next episode because that was in New Zealand.
52:04 --> 52:06 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, okay, I didn't, I haven't really, you've,
52:07 --> 52:11 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't really look at like the teasers and I just kind of, you know, I just kind of wait for the next week.
52:12 --> 52:12 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
52:12 --> 52:35 [SPEAKER_00]: I think next week we're getting pre-war Vegas post-war Vegas and flip ahead like 10 15 seconds if you don't want to hear the major story spoiler, but we're also getting
52:36 --> 52:39 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, as you do as you do.
52:39 --> 52:39 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
52:40 --> 52:53 [SPEAKER_00]: So then after Coup gets the information from Victor, he encounters the dusty look and NCR squad instead of helping him, they want his help because rumor has it.
52:54 --> 53:00 [SPEAKER_00]: He used to fight for the kind of ideals that they hold dear schools, medicine, all of this stuff.
53:01 --> 53:02 [SPEAKER_01]: Interesting.
53:02 --> 53:02 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
53:03 --> 53:03 [UNKNOWN]: I
53:04 --> 53:29 [SPEAKER_00]: I definitely didn't catch that and another thing that I caught which I don't know if this is intentional, if this is just a production mistake, when the goal is taking the medicine out of the case, he drops one on the ground and I feel like that might be his way of nonchalantly leaving behind some medicine for someone else who might need it to kind of be like,
53:30 --> 53:34 [SPEAKER_00]: or it could just be that Walden Goggins dropped one of the things and they didn't feel like refilling it.
53:35 --> 53:38 [SPEAKER_00]: It could be, you know, it does happen like that sometimes.
53:39 --> 53:39 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
53:39 --> 53:42 [SPEAKER_00]: But everything in this production feels really intentional.
53:42 --> 53:46 [SPEAKER_00]: So I'm, I'm gonna, I'm hoping you're right.
53:46 --> 53:46 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
53:46 --> 53:47 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
53:48 --> 53:52 [SPEAKER_00]: What did you think about our little Ranger friend with the pet squirrel?
53:54 --> 53:57 [SPEAKER_01]: I just don't remember the NCR at all.
53:57 --> 53:59 [SPEAKER_01]: What the hell?
54:00 --> 54:16 [SPEAKER_01]: I guess I don't remember that part of the episode to be fair I watched it before watching the, uh, I'm gonna be very nice about this dumpster fire of a stranger things finale.
54:17 --> 54:23 [SPEAKER_00]: Man, yeah, we could spend five hours talking in Stranger Things, Finale.
54:23 --> 54:24 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, no.
54:24 --> 54:27 [SPEAKER_00]: There were some parts I liked, but the majority of it.
54:27 --> 54:46 [SPEAKER_01]: I think, listen, listen, I think after building up this big villain, this big battle and being like guys, there's gonna be six character deaths and a major betrayal for there to be three major
54:48 --> 54:49 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, what are we doing?
54:49 --> 54:49 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
54:49 --> 55:00 [SPEAKER_01]: And also, like, the, the, the big final battle being like fucking six minutes long after after 10 years just feels like a cop out.
55:00 --> 55:01 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm sorry.
55:02 --> 55:04 [SPEAKER_01]: I think they got sick of making the show.
55:04 --> 55:07 [SPEAKER_01]: I think I got sick of watching the show.
55:08 --> 55:13 [SPEAKER_00]: There were a few parts that really got to me, but we, we can maybe talk about stranger things.
55:13 --> 55:16 [SPEAKER_00]: We still need to do a little.
55:16 --> 55:20 [SPEAKER_00]: Like whatever we do, yeah, oh, I like that.
55:20 --> 55:22 [SPEAKER_01]: I thought that's what I didn't you say that.
55:22 --> 55:24 [SPEAKER_01]: I think you came up with that when we were like talking about it.
55:26 --> 55:27 [SPEAKER_00]: Or Chase.
55:28 --> 55:29 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, maybe I did.
55:29 --> 55:31 [SPEAKER_00]: It's been so long since we talked about that.
55:31 --> 55:33 [SPEAKER_00]: I like, I was like, oh, I like that.
55:33 --> 55:34 [SPEAKER_00]: No, might have been my idea.
55:37 --> 55:37 [SPEAKER_00]: No wonder I like it.
55:37 --> 55:38 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, keep blazing.
55:38 --> 55:43 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and then we get at the very end.
55:44 --> 55:49 [SPEAKER_00]: We have Cooper, I should be calling him the ghoul, because he's not really Cooper anymore.
55:49 --> 55:59 [SPEAKER_00]: We have the ghoul tricking the Legion into releasing Lucy and giving them a false location, or maybe he gave them the correct location.
55:59 --> 56:07 [SPEAKER_00]: We don't know that he gave them a false NCR location, but I think that he did, and then he sets off an explosive and that ends up
56:07 --> 56:10 [SPEAKER_00]: causing some fighting between the two opposing civil war sides.
56:10 --> 56:15 [SPEAKER_00]: So the explosion no one knows who did it and so everything just erupts into chaos.
56:16 --> 56:18 [SPEAKER_01]: I thought he blew up and maybe he did.
56:18 --> 56:20 [SPEAKER_01]: Did he pull up the holy pocket?
56:22 --> 56:22 [SPEAKER_00]: He might have.
56:22 --> 56:25 [SPEAKER_00]: I thought that it was a little...
56:26 --> 56:32 [SPEAKER_00]: When he was walking into the Legion camp, he glanced over and saw a bunch of barrels full of dynamite.
56:33 --> 56:34 [SPEAKER_00]: So I think that's what he blew up.
56:34 --> 56:40 [SPEAKER_00]: But it could have been the Holy Pocket of Caesar himself Edward Salo.
56:42 --> 56:42 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
56:42 --> 56:45 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, I guess we'll find out probably next week.
56:45 --> 56:46 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
56:46 --> 56:47 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I wonder when we're going to see the Legion next.
56:48 --> 56:50 [SPEAKER_00]: We're definitely getting more McCullee Colkan.
56:51 --> 56:52 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think we're done with him.
56:52 --> 56:55 [SPEAKER_00]: We have at least a few more scenes.
56:55 --> 56:56 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
56:56 --> 57:02 [SPEAKER_01]: And before we go into our next section, I just want to clarify or ask you something and then maybe talk about it.
57:03 --> 57:12 [SPEAKER_01]: In episode two, is that when Norm and the the Buds Buds left of all or was that episode one and I'm stupid?
57:13 --> 57:14 [SPEAKER_00]: No, that was episode two.
57:14 --> 57:16 [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, we can talk about that a little bit.
57:16 --> 57:17 [SPEAKER_00]: You're you're absolutely right.
57:17 --> 57:18 [SPEAKER_00]: They did.
57:18 --> 57:18 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
57:19 --> 57:20 [SPEAKER_00]: It was kind of a
57:21 --> 57:36 [SPEAKER_00]: a small part of the overall story, but yeah, we did have norm, kind of commanding the buds buds folks, which was really entertaining there all freaking out and like throwing up in the vault and he's like, everyone shut up, get to work, we're going to get to work.
57:36 --> 57:40 [SPEAKER_01]: I would genetically engineered supermanager.
57:41 --> 57:46 [SPEAKER_00]: He has the right traits from Hank and the right ones from his mother.
57:46 --> 57:50 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that he, he's got a good personality and the ability to manipulate people.
57:51 --> 57:52 [SPEAKER_01]: I, I like norm.
57:52 --> 57:56 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm excited for that, like, continuation.
57:56 --> 58:01 [SPEAKER_01]: And I just want to see more of the vault in general, because like, I love, I love the vault characters.
58:01 --> 58:09 [SPEAKER_00]: There's so, though, like, like, Davey, we all know a Davey.
58:10 --> 58:11 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, do we?
58:12 --> 58:13 [SPEAKER_00]: Who's the Davie in your life?
58:15 --> 58:27 [SPEAKER_00]: I can think of so many people that I've worked with before or just like, known that I won't name names, but I've known a lot of Davies who are like, well, what am I supposed to do?
58:27 --> 58:31 [SPEAKER_00]: Now that everything's on the opposite side, I can't do it.
58:31 --> 58:31 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
58:33 --> 58:34 [SPEAKER_00]: I can't do it anymore.
58:34 --> 58:34 [SPEAKER_01]: Dude, poor chat.
58:35 --> 58:39 [SPEAKER_01]: At least he's got his, uh, totally his son.
58:40 --> 58:50 [SPEAKER_00]: Junior and it's not even his kid not even his kid born before he even got into that relationship Was Chetune your boy?
58:50 --> 58:52 [SPEAKER_01]: I thought Chetune your was born after they started.
58:53 --> 58:53 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, you're right.
58:53 --> 58:54 [SPEAKER_00]: You're right.
58:54 --> 59:00 [SPEAKER_00]: Shoot Stephanie was It was pregnant when they got together and then yeah What's the name Bert?
59:00 --> 59:01 [SPEAKER_00]: We never even met Bert.
59:02 --> 59:03 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't remember.
59:03 --> 59:08 [SPEAKER_01]: That's the kid's father I think we met Bert and Bert die in the
59:09 --> 59:36 [SPEAKER_00]: the first episode when like everything I got to rewatch season one man yeah we saw a portrait of Bert like a full-on we saw a room size painting of Bert on the wall when Stephanie and Chet first got together so yeah it's a little it was a little creepy that was after Stephanie put
59:36 --> 59:38 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh my god, I remember that.
59:39 --> 59:47 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I really wish I didn't remember that because that was so weird be a freak in your own right But that's a little too freaky.
59:47 --> 59:50 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I don't think chat was super happy with that.
59:50 --> 59:54 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think chat is happy with anything going on in his life right now
59:54 --> 59:55 [SPEAKER_01]: I think you're right.
59:56 --> 59:57 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, his bestie norm is gone.
59:57 --> 01:00:01 [SPEAKER_01]: His cousin, Ella is also gone.
01:00:01 --> 01:00:03 [SPEAKER_01]: Uh, her not Ella.
01:00:03 --> 01:00:04 [SPEAKER_01]: Jesus.
01:00:04 --> 01:00:05 [SPEAKER_01]: Ella pernell.
01:00:05 --> 01:00:06 [SPEAKER_01]: Um, Lucy.
01:00:07 --> 01:00:07 [SPEAKER_00]: The looster.
01:00:08 --> 01:00:09 [SPEAKER_01]: The looster.
01:00:10 --> 01:00:11 [SPEAKER_00]: Let's take a quick break.
01:00:11 --> 01:00:15 [SPEAKER_00]: And then we will get into the pre-war section and then our thoughts.
01:00:15 --> 01:00:18 [SPEAKER_00]: How we feel feedback and wrap it up.
01:00:24 --> 01:00:29 [SPEAKER_00]: and we're back to talk about the pre-war sections of these episodes.
01:00:30 --> 01:00:38 [SPEAKER_00]: Cooper rendezvouss with his old pal Charlie Whiteknife at a VA event that Charlie is being honored at for his heroics during Operation Anchorage.
01:00:39 --> 01:00:45 [SPEAKER_00]: Charlie compares Cooper's potential assassination of Robert House to their time in the Marine Corps.
01:00:46 --> 01:00:52 [SPEAKER_00]: Cooper unknowingly is confronted by his target
01:00:54 --> 01:00:58 [SPEAKER_01]: On God, we've all antagonized someone in the bathroom, right?
01:00:58 --> 01:00:59 [SPEAKER_01]: This is relatable.
01:01:00 --> 01:01:07 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you don't just hang around in public bathrooms and then, you know, someone walks in and you're like, are you a pinko?
01:01:08 --> 01:01:10 [SPEAKER_01]: I just like rage-baiting strangers.
01:01:10 --> 01:01:13 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, and what's better than doing it in a bathroom?
01:01:14 --> 01:01:14 [SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.
01:01:14 --> 01:01:20 [SPEAKER_00]: What's better than attacking someone when they feel most vulnerable.
01:01:21 --> 01:01:22 [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, maybe not that far.
01:01:22 --> 01:01:25 [SPEAKER_01]: You know, I was thinking of it like just a silly rage bait way.
01:01:26 --> 01:01:28 [SPEAKER_00]: No, yeah, I mean, that's what Mr. House is doing.
01:01:28 --> 01:01:33 [SPEAKER_00]: He's, he just kind of comes out of the shadows in there.
01:01:33 --> 01:01:38 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, I'm gonna keep calling him Mr. House until we get some sort of thing to the contrary.
01:01:38 --> 01:01:42 [SPEAKER_00]: There's a lot of people out there who are adamant that this is House's brother or that it's someone else.
01:01:43 --> 01:01:50 [SPEAKER_00]: I really do believe that it's Mr. House and maybe all those some internet points on this one
01:01:50 --> 01:01:50 [SPEAKER_00]: But I do.
01:01:50 --> 01:02:00 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to go with a slightly different theory and that it's a clone that he transferred his consciousness into clones do exist in the follow universe.
01:02:00 --> 01:02:04 [SPEAKER_01]: So this is Paul and he's obsessed with living forever.
01:02:04 --> 01:02:05 [SPEAKER_01]: And you know what's close to living forever.
01:02:06 --> 01:02:10 [SPEAKER_01]: Cloning a younger version of yourself and popping into that body.
01:02:11 --> 01:02:12 [SPEAKER_01]: It happened in sunny there.
01:02:12 --> 01:02:14 [SPEAKER_01]: What am I favorite villains is like that.
01:02:14 --> 01:02:19 [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm not going to keep you acting because that that's a lot to you.
01:02:20 --> 01:02:22 [SPEAKER_00]: I like that theory a lot.
01:02:23 --> 01:02:25 [SPEAKER_00]: who I had really had not thought about it like that.
01:02:25 --> 01:02:32 [SPEAKER_00]: But now I might be on team cloning and hope, I know for sure that all my internet points, yeah.
01:02:32 --> 01:02:33 [SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.
01:02:33 --> 01:02:44 [SPEAKER_00]: No, I'm still gonna stick to that being the real Mr. House and the guy who's on TV being a body double for him because House is based off of Howard Hughes.
01:02:44 --> 01:02:49 [SPEAKER_00]: I believe the like, reclusive millionaire, who had a affinity for Vegas.
01:02:50 --> 01:02:52 [SPEAKER_00]: And so he's like,
01:02:51 --> 01:02:55 [SPEAKER_00]: That's kind of his vibe with the body doubles and everything.
01:02:55 --> 01:03:03 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, but we don't have any, we don't have any real evidence of that yet, but only time can tell, only time can tell with that.
01:03:05 --> 01:03:11 [SPEAKER_00]: We have barbed in the Free War period, crying as she is packing Janey's things for the vaults.
01:03:11 --> 01:03:21 [SPEAKER_01]: And Cooper Howard, serving as always is like, oh well, we
01:03:22 --> 01:03:23 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
01:03:23 --> 01:03:31 [SPEAKER_00]: And I love how he's just becoming increasingly disgusted by the whole situation when he talks to her and he's like, well, maybe won't have to.
01:03:31 --> 01:03:33 [SPEAKER_00]: And she doesn't really answer him.
01:03:33 --> 01:03:39 [SPEAKER_00]: He goes around the corner and looks back like, what has my life become?
01:03:39 --> 01:03:40 [SPEAKER_00]: What is going on?
01:03:41 --> 01:03:42 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:03:42 --> 01:03:46 [SPEAKER_01]: I think him, him becoming more openly and technistic towards her too.
01:03:46 --> 01:03:48 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I shouldn't
01:03:49 --> 01:03:50 [SPEAKER_01]: passive aggressive towards her.
01:03:50 --> 01:03:53 [SPEAKER_01]: That's the what I'm looking for, I think.
01:03:53 --> 01:03:58 [SPEAKER_01]: Um, I think they're going to have a confrontation at the end of this season.
01:03:58 --> 01:04:11 [SPEAKER_01]: And I think given the way they've been doing like side by side parallels the whole way, I think he's going to confront her possibly in the finale or maybe like end of episode seven in the pre wartime line.
01:04:11 --> 01:04:16 [SPEAKER_01]: And then that's when he's
01:04:16 --> 01:04:17 [SPEAKER_00]: That would be great.
01:04:17 --> 01:04:22 [SPEAKER_00]: They do really love to interweave the scenes of free war Cooper with post war ghoul.
01:04:23 --> 01:04:36 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's very well done because like how do you show a character having parallels like that within their own lifespan versus like characters having parallels with other characters?
01:04:37 --> 01:04:43 [SPEAKER_01]: It's very like it's a great way to do it since it's more like contained within his character.
01:04:44 --> 01:04:45 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, absolutely.
01:04:46 --> 01:04:54 [SPEAKER_00]: And I think that I also really love shout out to Rameen Jawati who is the composer for the fallout soundtrack.
01:04:55 --> 01:04:59 [SPEAKER_00]: He did all of the game of throne stuff fantastic guy.
01:05:00 --> 01:05:02 [SPEAKER_00]: That makes it sound like I know personally.
01:05:03 --> 01:05:04 [SPEAKER_01]: Great guy all around.
01:05:04 --> 01:05:06 [SPEAKER_01]: You know, you know, he's a homeboy.
01:05:07 --> 01:05:07 [SPEAKER_00]: exactly.
01:05:08 --> 01:05:19 [SPEAKER_00]: But the song that plays in the background during Cooper listening to Charlie Whiteknife's speech about him in Alaska was...
01:05:19 --> 01:05:30 [SPEAKER_00]: they've played it a few times before, it just gets me every single time, the sort of soft string instruments in the background, everything is so dramatic and I love it.
01:05:30 --> 01:05:30 [SPEAKER_00]: It's great.
01:05:31 --> 01:05:35 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, now the soundtrack has always been a high point for fallout for sure.
01:05:35 --> 01:05:37 [SPEAKER_01]: Definitely.
01:05:38 --> 01:05:46 [SPEAKER_00]: and we get Congresswoman from the district of boring delivering Charlie his award which is Yippee, a commemorative lighter.
01:05:47 --> 01:05:49 [SPEAKER_01]: I kind of felt bad for her.
01:05:49 --> 01:06:05 [SPEAKER_01]: I did too because she's like the, wasn't her thing that she's the last Congress person in the, in the US that doesn't, that isn't bought out by a corporation or like backed by a corporation like, come on guys, what are we doing?
01:06:05 --> 01:06:16 [SPEAKER_00]: I know, and I don't know why, but it really made me so sad when she dropped the cards, and no one really helped her, and she was just up there kind of floundering it.
01:06:16 --> 01:06:19 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know why that really just got to me, like I felt so sad.
01:06:19 --> 01:06:31 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know, I think it's like the representative of being the last
01:06:33 --> 01:06:34 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
01:06:34 --> 01:06:35 [SPEAKER_01]: It's a thought provoking.
01:06:36 --> 01:06:38 [SPEAKER_00]: And she's so defeated.
01:06:38 --> 01:06:45 [SPEAKER_00]: You can just hear in her voice that she doesn't have any fight left in her, which is played for the last mostly, but it is sad.
01:06:46 --> 01:06:48 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, there's like a real component to that.
01:06:48 --> 01:06:56 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and then we have Charlie giving coupe that lighter, which was meant to push him towards killing house.
01:06:56 --> 01:06:58 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know how I missed this.
01:06:58 --> 01:07:03 [SPEAKER_00]: I had to go back and like rewatch the scene with Cooper and Moldaver from episode one.
01:07:03 --> 01:07:09 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know why I didn't realize that she was asking Cooper to kill house.
01:07:11 --> 01:07:11 [SPEAKER_01]: What do you mean?
01:07:11 --> 01:07:12 [SPEAKER_01]: Why wouldn't she?
01:07:12 --> 01:07:13 [SPEAKER_01]: It's a cup of the kill house.
01:07:13 --> 01:07:14 [SPEAKER_00]: No.
01:07:14 --> 01:07:23 [SPEAKER_00]: I just didn't really like, I didn't realize that, I don't know why I misheard it and thought that she was asking him to spy on Mr. House.
01:07:23 --> 01:07:24 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah.
01:07:25 --> 01:07:29 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, spying, killing, it's all in the same boat.
01:07:29 --> 01:07:34 [SPEAKER_00]: It's funny because she does explicitly say, I'm not asking you to spy on him.
01:07:34 --> 01:07:38 [SPEAKER_00]: And the implication is, like, going kill him, please.
01:07:38 --> 01:07:41 [SPEAKER_00]: And I just completely, I miss that somehow.
01:07:41 --> 01:07:46 [SPEAKER_00]: But, you know, I caught on by this episode.
01:07:46 --> 01:07:49 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know, a late start is still a start.
01:07:50 --> 01:07:51 [SPEAKER_01]: It is.
01:07:51 --> 01:08:03 [SPEAKER_00]: And it was a really powerful moment between Charlie and Koop when he has that line of, they gave this lighter to me for saving a man, not for killing the three that it took to do it.
01:08:03 --> 01:08:06 [SPEAKER_00]: So he's really just trying to convince him, you know,
01:08:07 --> 01:08:33 [SPEAKER_00]: If you want to be a hero, you can't make an omelette without breaking some eggs, and people are going to remember everything that you did that was for good, they're not going to remember all of the destruction and the horror that you caused to do it, and he also has that extra push of like, we were fighting against China, we were doing all of this to all of these wars
01:08:33 --> 01:08:36 [SPEAKER_00]: We were, what did we really accomplish?
01:08:36 --> 01:08:38 [SPEAKER_00]: Were we doing something righteous?
01:08:38 --> 01:08:55 [SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, and it, you know, definitely is something to think about because like the world ended and pretty much as soon as the bombs dropped, there accomplishments were for nothing, essentially, because what was the point of fighting in the war just for,
01:08:56 --> 01:09:08 [SPEAKER_00]: the world to end, you know, a couple of years later anyways, and it also seems like an episode four we're going to get an operation anchorage flashback of Cooper in the war.
01:09:09 --> 01:09:17 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh boy, I just can't wait to see more power because they've done, they've done power armers so well in the show.
01:09:17 --> 01:09:18 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I think we talked about it.
01:09:18 --> 01:09:26 [SPEAKER_01]: You guys talked about it last season, but like they just kind of had
01:09:26 --> 01:09:54 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, and I think the wave it a lot of character like the way that Maximus reacted to having power armor in the first season like when he first got it, I think I was texting you and maybe chase about it when I watched it like that encapsulates the feel of getting power armor for the first time like you just want to have fun with it, you want to try it out and and you do a lot of stupid shit with it, I feel like like what if I could.
01:09:54 --> 01:10:01 [SPEAKER_01]: You know, how much damage can I do using this melee weapon in the power armor against whatever random enemy and then you just fuck around with it a lot?
01:10:02 --> 01:10:20 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that's my favorite change that Bethesda has made from going to from Fallout 3 to Fallout 4 was the way that the power armor works as kind of a vehicle and this exosuit instead of just another piece of clothing that you can put on that acts the same way that all the other armors do.
01:10:20 --> 01:10:30 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I like the way it feels like to get into power armor in 4 and in 76, honestly, did so much for power armor.
01:10:31 --> 01:10:38 [SPEAKER_01]: Like the way that it's more of like a piece of your arsenal, instead of just like you said another piece of clothing.
01:10:39 --> 01:10:42 [SPEAKER_01]: Like it's it's like got its own function to it.
01:10:42 --> 01:10:43 [SPEAKER_00]: Definitely.
01:10:44 --> 01:10:49 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they have like all of the different situational power armors like there's some that give you more carry weight there, some that.
01:10:49 --> 01:10:57 [SPEAKER_01]: Give you more damage for whatever's there's the mining set like there's there's almost like classes Four power armor.
01:10:58 --> 01:11:01 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, which it works great for an online game like that.
01:11:02 --> 01:11:13 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, any last thoughts on all of this pre war stuff any thoughts on House or barb or Charlie white knife as Mr. House would say
01:11:14 --> 01:11:19 [SPEAKER_01]: Ah, no, but I'm excited for this week to see like the continuation of everything.
01:11:19 --> 01:11:20 [SPEAKER_00]: Nice.
01:11:20 --> 01:11:21 [SPEAKER_00]: All right.
01:11:21 --> 01:11:23 [SPEAKER_00]: Let's get into our thoughts.
01:11:23 --> 01:11:27 [SPEAKER_00]: Richard, do you want to start us off with sort of your general closing thoughts?
01:11:28 --> 01:11:32 [SPEAKER_01]: The brotherhood of Steel Silver is great and like it's cool at all.
01:11:33 --> 01:11:42 [SPEAKER_01]: I really do hope though that like if all out five is that 10 years after this show takes place, right?
01:11:42 --> 01:11:51 [SPEAKER_01]: I want Fallout 5, like I would like for this to have lasting effects to future games, because a brotherhood civil war is a huge deal.
01:11:51 --> 01:11:55 [SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean, like I think that'd be cool.
01:11:57 --> 01:12:21 [SPEAKER_01]: And I think it should like whatever the show does, but that makes me wonder like are they going to wait until this show is over before they even start working it doesn't even matter if Elder Scrolls six is going to take another two two decades three decades We're not seeing fall out five, but I hope future generations will and not in our lifetime
01:12:23 --> 01:12:29 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm starting to see what Robert House was on about, honestly, because I might have to do that just so I can play for five.
01:12:30 --> 01:12:34 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you could be a shriveled up corpse connected to a computer.
01:12:36 --> 01:12:40 [SPEAKER_00]: If we used to say, I'm not already a shriveled up old corpse connected to a computer.
01:12:41 --> 01:12:43 [SPEAKER_00]: That's secretly what AI Richard is.
01:12:44 --> 01:12:44 [SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
01:12:45 --> 01:12:48 [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so it's like the God Emperor from Warhammer almost.
01:12:48 --> 01:12:49 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:12:49 --> 01:12:51 [SPEAKER_01]: It's great.
01:12:52 --> 01:12:56 [SPEAKER_00]: No, I agree with you with all of that, uh, any other thoughts?
01:12:56 --> 01:13:02 [SPEAKER_01]: I do have more thoughts, but given that I just just talking about the brotherhood, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
01:13:04 --> 01:13:12 [SPEAKER_00]: F Elder Quintus, F Peladin Hardness, F the Brotherhood of Steel, cool power armor and Fertibirds do not make up for being terrible.
01:13:13 --> 01:13:14 [SPEAKER_00]: Damn, that's my TED Talk.
01:13:14 --> 01:13:15 [SPEAKER_00]: Thank you for joining me.
01:13:16 --> 01:13:19 [SPEAKER_01]: You're Aaron Talk, if you will.
01:13:19 --> 01:13:21 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, my hot dog talk.
01:13:23 --> 01:13:44 [SPEAKER_01]: do Ted's hot dogs fuck don't don't say that now I'm gonna have to go get Ted's That's a that's a real regional pull go get yourself a a Ted's salons hot dog and a a Logan Berry All right rant aside I'm excited to see more of Hank's Like whatever he's got going on.
01:13:44 --> 01:13:46 [SPEAKER_01]: I would love to see a Hank back story.
01:13:46 --> 01:13:51 [SPEAKER_01]: I guess Because there's got to be a reason why he's such like a corporate laser, right?
01:13:53 --> 01:14:15 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I mean, from what we've seen, the fact that he was talking to someone at the end of episode one and continuing Mr. House's experiments in episode two, he's probably working for Mr. House, like I can't imagine anything else.
01:14:15 --> 01:14:16 [SPEAKER_00]: that would be pretty cool.
01:14:17 --> 01:14:20 [SPEAKER_00]: Because we saw him briefly at the end of last season.
01:14:20 --> 01:14:26 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and he wanted that art of, uh, not art, oh my god, autograph.
01:14:26 --> 01:14:28 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know why I was trying to say artifact.
01:14:29 --> 01:14:34 [SPEAKER_00]: It's the whole artifact on the brain because they keep referring to the artifact.
01:14:34 --> 01:14:46 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so yeah, I would like to see more of Hank and then obviously I'd love to see more of Mr. House because Mr. House Mr. Robert, if you will, is just always cool.
01:14:46 --> 01:14:47 [SPEAKER_01]: What about you, Doug?
01:14:49 --> 01:14:52 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, my final little thought on these episodes as a whole.
01:14:54 --> 01:15:00 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think the goal needs Lucy, the way he sort of justifies it that way.
01:15:00 --> 01:15:13 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that's how he is trying to justify it to himself and to dog meat, which I think is really funny that he's using dog meat as a way of talking through his conscience.
01:15:14 --> 01:15:14 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
01:15:15 --> 01:15:16 [SPEAKER_00]: That's pretty great.
01:15:16 --> 01:15:17 [SPEAKER_00]: I think he just likes her.
01:15:17 --> 01:15:19 [SPEAKER_00]: I think he likes being around her.
01:15:19 --> 01:15:28 [SPEAKER_00]: I think he likes the person that he's turning back into because of her influence and 200 years of horror can really corrupt a person.
01:15:28 --> 01:15:36 [SPEAKER_00]: But Cooper Howard is still existing somewhere inside the Google and we're just going to see more and more of him peek out because of Lucy.
01:15:37 --> 01:15:55 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they're interactions are they definitely humanized the Google a lot more, which is great because like in season one, I feel like I had trouble seeing him as the seeing him as Cooper Howard and seeing him as the Google, you know, like I know that they're the same character.
01:15:56 --> 01:16:16 [SPEAKER_01]: But it's hard to like bridge that gap, but with him acting like he's acting more and more to like his old self, and that is helping to kind of bridge that gap is like, you could see bits and pieces of Cooper in the Google, which you should, but like.
01:16:17 --> 01:16:21 [SPEAKER_01]: It's easier to see the two being the same character.
01:16:22 --> 01:16:28 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and I think especially with the NCR Rangers in the Hills talking about how he used to fight for higher ideals.
01:16:29 --> 01:16:31 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think they're talking about pre-war Cooper.
01:16:31 --> 01:16:36 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think they really know about pre-war Cooper or what he was like.
01:16:36 --> 01:16:42 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that at some point, he's probably been through some similar period of being a good guy.
01:16:43 --> 01:16:44 [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe it was right after the bombs dropped.
01:16:45 --> 01:16:54 [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe he's been a good guy for a while and he just kind of slipped into his whole villainous mercenary persona after some catastrophic event.
01:16:56 --> 01:17:06 [SPEAKER_00]: But I do believe that he's in there and he's been, he's poked his head out before from
01:17:06 --> 01:17:29 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think ultimately he still wants to do good and I think that the like you said it is a persona like it's the It's like how you you were saying earlier like you totally believe that he could have left like drop that medicine on purpose And I think that that is sort of him trying to do good while maintaining the persona of like being
01:17:29 --> 01:17:31 [SPEAKER_01]: you know, he's the tough guy.
01:17:31 --> 01:17:32 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
01:17:32 --> 01:17:40 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he's essentially just his whole postwar the Google persona is just the cowboy from his one movie, right?
01:17:40 --> 01:17:41 [SPEAKER_00]: Like that's yeah.
01:17:42 --> 01:17:47 [SPEAKER_01]: I think he's just doing what he what he used to do best and that is acting.
01:17:47 --> 01:17:48 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
01:17:49 --> 01:17:49 [SPEAKER_00]: I agree.
01:17:51 --> 01:17:51 [SPEAKER_00]: All right.
01:17:51 --> 01:17:59 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, we should get on to how we feel Richard, you want to give us your
01:18:00 --> 01:18:10 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yes, my very professional review, um, this is definitely a lot shorter than yours because I agree with a lot of Aaron's points that he's going to make immediately after this.
01:18:12 --> 01:18:17 [SPEAKER_01]: So, you know, I didn't include those in my review, but I liked three more than two.
01:18:19 --> 01:18:25 [SPEAKER_01]: I liked it, but I don't think it was a better episode critically, if that makes sense.
01:18:26 --> 01:18:43 [SPEAKER_01]: But I gave us a lot more insight into like the new Vegas power dynamic in the present day and the Google interfering with the Legion was great like I'm excited to see the outcome of that I think we're gonna see Lucera a lot more and more as the season goes on and I'm hoping for more Hank
01:18:45 --> 01:19:09 [SPEAKER_01]: You know, and then also this stuff Aaron's going to cover, but I would give episode two and eight out of five or an eight point five out of ten and episode three and eight out of ten, which is what I mean like what I say critically, I like to or I like two more than three, but I like to the, I like three more than two, as just like a casual viewer if that makes sense.
01:19:10 --> 01:19:11 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that makes sense.
01:19:11 --> 01:19:12 [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
01:19:12 --> 01:19:14 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, wonderful.
01:19:14 --> 01:19:23 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that episodes two and three were pretty fantastic as introductions to the greater world of fallout factions and organizations.
01:19:24 --> 01:19:29 [SPEAKER_00]: There was a lot of iconic locations, old characters, new moral dilemmas.
01:19:30 --> 01:19:32 [SPEAKER_00]: These episodes were
01:19:32 --> 01:19:40 [SPEAKER_00]: More than anything felt like they were setting the stage for the central conflict that's going to dominate this season and maybe even extend further into the series.
01:19:40 --> 01:19:46 [SPEAKER_00]: Like I would be shocked if the brotherhood civil war was over by the end of this season.
01:19:48 --> 01:19:56 [SPEAKER_00]: And the whole Cooper slash the goal thing remains the most interesting character work that the show is doing.
01:19:58 --> 01:20:13 [SPEAKER_00]: And with how this story is going, I do feel like seeing his downfall from pre-war Cooper into the goal and then his redemption back into something better because of his relationship with Lucy and wandering through the wasteland and being coerced into doing good.
01:20:14 --> 01:20:16 [SPEAKER_00]: It could be the most compelling story in the franchise.
01:20:16 --> 01:20:21 [SPEAKER_00]: It's already shaping up to be that way, but I think if they wrap it up well.
01:20:21 --> 01:20:26 [SPEAKER_00]: it truly is going to be some of the most compelling character work that they've ever done.
01:20:27 --> 01:20:41 [SPEAKER_00]: And while I thought episode three was the weakest of the bunch, it was still really entertaining, and it sucked me into the world so so much, especially with everything they did with the legion and bringing back so many iconic locations.
01:20:42 --> 01:21:04 [SPEAKER_00]: So overall, I think that I'm going to give episode two and eight out of ten, episode three, a seven out of ten, I felt they were both fantastic, but I just had to put three just a little bit lower because I felt like it was still in the setup phase and by episode three, I kind of want to move past the setup and I want to really get into the meat of the story.
01:21:04 --> 01:21:10 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's kind of my only big criticism of what's
01:21:11 --> 01:21:12 [SPEAKER_01]: Let's further.
01:21:13 --> 01:21:19 [SPEAKER_00]: All right, before we wrap things up, I scooped up a little bit of feedback from the discord.
01:21:19 --> 01:21:23 [SPEAKER_00]: I just took a couple of comments off of the episodes two and three.
01:21:23 --> 01:21:27 [SPEAKER_00]: So we'll go buy these kind of piece by piece and talk about them as we go.
01:21:29 --> 01:21:34 [SPEAKER_00]: Let's start off with Professor spelled with a nine at the beginning from the discord.
01:21:35 --> 01:21:42 [SPEAKER_00]: I am interested in seeing how Lucy and Maximus may help each other realign their sense of self, priorities, and morality.
01:21:43 --> 01:21:52 [SPEAKER_00]: Maximus was raised by a good family that instilled deeper rooted values in him, but he has lost his moral compass at an early age and was then indoctrinated.
01:21:52 --> 01:21:59 [SPEAKER_00]: The fact that he has questions and struggles with his current circumstance is a tribute to what was embedded in him at an early age.
01:21:59 --> 01:22:10 [SPEAKER_00]: Lucy lost her mother at an early age and was raised by an evil man disguised as a leader slash father and also indoctrinated parentheses by the vault instead of the brotherhood.
01:22:11 --> 01:22:22 [SPEAKER_00]: As Lucy fights to maintain an honorable stance and maximists fights to regain true honor, I wonder if they will serve as balancing points to one another as they make decisions
01:22:22 --> 01:22:25 [SPEAKER_00]: Well said, there's a lot of parallels between Max and Lucy.
01:22:26 --> 01:22:26 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:22:28 --> 01:22:29 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:22:29 --> 01:22:38 [SPEAKER_01]: I think that is going to keep developing as the season goes on and we're going to see them reunite at some point.
01:22:40 --> 01:22:46 [SPEAKER_00]: And we didn't even talk about Max's father, what he says to Max as he's getting into the fridge, you know,
01:22:47 --> 01:22:52 [SPEAKER_00]: As long as you leave the world a little bit better than you found it, it'll all be all right.
01:22:53 --> 01:23:03 [SPEAKER_00]: And I think even though Maximus has been indoctrinated by the Brotherhood, he's going to remember that that's going to be such a core memory for him and so important.
01:23:03 --> 01:23:09 [SPEAKER_00]: And I think that he believes at this moment that the Brotherhood is the best way of leaving the world a little bit better than he found it.
01:23:09 --> 01:23:14 [SPEAKER_00]: But he's going to eventually break away from that or he'll want to change the Brotherhood from the inside.
01:23:15 --> 01:23:23 [SPEAKER_01]: get he's starting to see like the cracks and I do like that, that motif of trying to change a corrupt system from the inside.
01:23:23 --> 01:23:32 [SPEAKER_01]: I feel like it usually doesn't end up working out as well as it should, but I don't know.
01:23:32 --> 01:23:37 [SPEAKER_01]: Depends on the story, I guess, like Code Yass has a really good representation of that.
01:23:37 --> 01:23:39 [SPEAKER_00]: So thank you for your feedback professor.
01:23:39 --> 01:23:46 [SPEAKER_00]: If it's pronounced like nine professor or just professor, let us know, we would love to hear from you.
01:23:47 --> 01:23:51 [SPEAKER_00]: And then our next piece of feedback is from Jean,
01:23:51 --> 01:23:59 [SPEAKER_00]: who is one of the Lorehound's co-hosts, and I had the honor of being on Peace Maker with Alicia and John.
01:24:00 --> 01:24:01 [SPEAKER_00]: So that was a lot of fun.
01:24:01 --> 01:24:06 [SPEAKER_00]: John says, I've got to say out of all the possible futures slash universes that we see on screen.
01:24:06 --> 01:24:09 [SPEAKER_00]: This one is probably top three for where I don't ever want to be.
01:24:12 --> 01:24:14 [SPEAKER_01]: I feel like there's way worse futures than fall out.
01:24:14 --> 01:24:16 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, we got Warhammer.
01:24:16 --> 01:24:20 [SPEAKER_01]: We've got
01:24:21 --> 01:24:39 [SPEAKER_01]: uh... on screen this is pretty bad well pretty soon warhammer is going to be on screen too so is it yes and uh... Henry Cavalry starring in a warhammer oh but yeah i think he is i well for now at least more hammer we can't count but
01:24:39 --> 01:24:54 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that Jean said this after episode three, which was the Legion episode, which, yeah, the whole Legion of it all really does make you not want to live in this post-apocalypse, but the Legion of it all.
01:24:54 --> 01:25:04 [SPEAKER_00]: The Legion of it all, as long as you stay clear of Arizona and New Mexico, you're all said, I mean, yeah, I thought that was just kind of how we live in life, IRL anyways, right?
01:25:05 --> 01:25:06 [SPEAKER_00]: I've never been to New Mexico or Arizona.
01:25:06 --> 01:25:08 [SPEAKER_00]: I do really want to go to Santa Fe, though.
01:25:09 --> 01:25:10 [SPEAKER_00]: Stop lying.
01:25:10 --> 01:25:11 [SPEAKER_00]: I do.
01:25:11 --> 01:25:14 [SPEAKER_00]: It seems like a fun place to visit, shout out to Santa Fe.
01:25:16 --> 01:25:24 [SPEAKER_00]: I suppose, you know, teach their own, teach their own, but postapocalyptic, no, no, no, stay far away.
01:25:25 --> 01:25:28 [SPEAKER_00]: And then finally, we have a little bit of feedback from I, yes, to die.
01:25:28 --> 01:25:30 [SPEAKER_00]: That's a hilarious username I love it.
01:25:31 --> 01:25:36 [SPEAKER_00]: The Brotherhood's end goal is very unclear to me for sure, just taking over everything, then what?
01:25:37 --> 01:25:38 [SPEAKER_00]: Without reproduction, what are you going to do?
01:25:39 --> 01:25:41 [SPEAKER_00]: Who are you doing this for?
01:25:41 --> 01:25:47 [SPEAKER_00]: And I split the feedback, this piece of feedback into two because I want to do address this one first.
01:25:47 --> 01:25:48 [SPEAKER_00]: Do you're right?
01:25:48 --> 01:25:49 [SPEAKER_00]: What are they going to do?
01:25:49 --> 01:25:57 [SPEAKER_00]: The brother who doesn't want to set up a government, they're just kind of militaristic control freaks.
01:25:57 --> 01:26:02 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they want to be in control without having a structure for being in control.
01:26:03 --> 01:26:03 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
01:26:03 --> 01:26:05 [SPEAKER_00]: So the question of like who are they doing this for?
01:26:05 --> 01:26:11 [SPEAKER_00]: It's such a valid question because really they're not doing this for any decent future.
01:26:11 --> 01:26:16 [SPEAKER_00]: They can say as much as they want that they're hoarding technologies so that people don't hurt themselves with it.
01:26:16 --> 01:26:19 [SPEAKER_00]: But at the end of the day,
01:26:19 --> 01:26:20 [SPEAKER_00]: They're not stopping anything.
01:26:21 --> 01:26:26 [SPEAKER_00]: Sure, you can go and take a laser weapon away from a wastelander.
01:26:26 --> 01:26:31 [SPEAKER_00]: They're still going to kill their neighbor with a knife instead of the laser gun.
01:26:31 --> 01:26:33 [SPEAKER_00]: I really, it's not...
01:26:34 --> 01:26:35 [SPEAKER_00]: They're not doing anything.
01:26:35 --> 01:26:39 [SPEAKER_00]: They're still, the wasteland is terrible.
01:26:39 --> 01:26:44 [SPEAKER_00]: If you're not working to bring clean water, you're not working to educate people.
01:26:44 --> 01:26:48 [SPEAKER_00]: You're not working to create farms and infrastructure.
01:26:48 --> 01:26:52 [SPEAKER_01]: You're just making people's lives better.
01:26:52 --> 01:26:59 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they're just doing everything for themselves so that they can have this stock pile of random bullshit.
01:26:59 --> 01:27:00 [SPEAKER_00]: It just sucks.
01:27:00 --> 01:27:01 [SPEAKER_00]: They suck.
01:27:01 --> 01:27:24 [SPEAKER_01]: like they're going to have essentially infinite fusion cores and they they want to go to war with it why not just solve like there's problems in the wasteland and not even the wasteland is a whole there's problems in the brotherhood that could be solved with with infinite energy aside from like having a civil war what are we doing?
01:27:24 --> 01:27:30 [SPEAKER_00]: It's just so telling that Quintus gets his hands on this shit, and the first thing he wants to do is how can I be in charge?
01:27:31 --> 01:27:32 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, man.
01:27:32 --> 01:27:33 [SPEAKER_00]: It's just so irritating.
01:27:33 --> 01:27:34 [SPEAKER_00]: They irritate me.
01:27:34 --> 01:27:42 [SPEAKER_00]: The East Coast is not any better for the folks who were irritated that the commonwealth was portrayed the way that they were.
01:27:43 --> 01:27:43 [SPEAKER_00]: They're just as bad.
01:27:44 --> 01:27:45 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm sorry to break the news.
01:27:45 --> 01:27:47 [SPEAKER_00]: I have no wiggle room on this.
01:27:47 --> 01:27:49 [SPEAKER_00]: The whole brother had just sucks.
01:27:49 --> 01:27:49 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
01:27:50 --> 01:27:53 [SPEAKER_00]: And then I, yes, the die follows it up.
01:27:53 --> 01:28:03 [SPEAKER_00]: I saying these questions don't bother me much because I'm finding them all very enjoyable, even the fighting and boxing in armor seems very stupid and military-grunt nonsense and appropriate.
01:28:04 --> 01:28:11 [SPEAKER_00]: Plus, of course, to show how Maximus sees this as wrong and helps with his sense of bull superiority, but also unease with the brotherhood.
01:28:12 --> 01:28:12 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, put
01:28:13 --> 01:28:17 [SPEAKER_01]: I feel like we should just hire you guys to start right in the outlines for us with some of these.
01:28:17 --> 01:28:24 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, everyone ever in pitch in, everyone with these comments, we really don't need any original thoughts of our own.
01:28:25 --> 01:28:25 [SPEAKER_00]: This is great guys.
01:28:26 --> 01:28:31 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, we were going to start out sourcing everything to AI, but I guess this works better.
01:28:32 --> 01:28:35 [SPEAKER_01]: You don't already ask AI what you think about everything.
01:28:35 --> 01:28:37 [SPEAKER_01]: I have started doing that.
01:28:37 --> 01:28:38 [SPEAKER_01]: I actually just keep it.
01:28:38 --> 01:28:44 [SPEAKER_01]: Like when I finished sunny there, I was like, eh, uh, chat GPT, what do I think of sunny there?
01:28:45 --> 01:28:46 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's not I think.
01:28:48 --> 01:28:49 [SPEAKER_00]: Can't you just do it for me?
01:28:50 --> 01:28:52 [SPEAKER_00]: It's sad, but there are people who are doing that out there.
01:28:52 --> 01:28:53 [SPEAKER_01]: I know.
01:28:54 --> 01:29:00 [SPEAKER_00]: No, I don't, I don't want to hate on all AI usage because I think that there's some like valid uses of it.
01:29:01 --> 01:29:02 [SPEAKER_00]: But please,
01:29:03 --> 01:29:05 [SPEAKER_00]: Continue having original thoughts.
01:29:05 --> 01:29:10 [SPEAKER_01]: I love you all and you all the wonderful minds have have you use your brain.
01:29:10 --> 01:29:14 [SPEAKER_01]: It's there for reason and like I don't know.
01:29:14 --> 01:29:16 [SPEAKER_01]: I just I can't I'm not going on a day.
01:29:16 --> 01:29:17 [SPEAKER_01]: I ran.
01:29:17 --> 01:29:18 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not going on an air.
01:29:18 --> 01:29:19 [SPEAKER_01]: I ran
01:29:19 --> 01:29:26 [SPEAKER_01]: but I don't like AI, don't use AI for stuff that you can use your own brain for the most part.
01:29:26 --> 01:29:30 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, the morality of it is still the morality of it all.
01:29:31 --> 01:29:36 [SPEAKER_00]: The morality of it all is still being discovered, I think, the brotherhood of it all.
01:29:37 --> 01:29:39 [SPEAKER_00]: That should be our tagline for this season, the Brotherhood of it all.
01:29:40 --> 01:29:41 [SPEAKER_00]: The Rusty Susan of it all.
01:29:42 --> 01:29:44 [SPEAKER_00]: We need to bring back Rusty Susan into our life.
01:29:44 --> 01:29:45 [SPEAKER_00]: So true.
01:29:45 --> 01:29:46 [SPEAKER_00]: So true.
01:29:46 --> 01:29:47 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
