It should take 10 seconds. When you say something looming, do you mean like a tapestry being made? No, there's a ghost behind you. A looming ghost? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:33 It's only on my Zoom, I think. Your boom? B-O-O-M? My Zoom. Oh, boom. Like boo, like ghost. It didn't work. It didn't work.
Starting point is 00:01:43 It didn't work. That's an October joke. That's an October joke. work it didn't work that's an october joke that's an october joke don't feel bad that's an october joke it's march i don't know what i'm doing i don't know what i'm doing i'm way over i'll tell you what you're not doing is wearing green either one of you mina's got mina's got green on wait do you have green unintentionally until you pointed it out didn't even occur to me i just don't want to i just don't want to be like a green person like i don't want to i understand exactly what person. I don't want to. I understand exactly what you mean. For the listeners, we are recording on St. Patrick's Day.
Starting point is 00:02:08 That's right. Yeah. Yeah, I am. I'm green. I got green socks on, green underwear, green shirt. Your name's Sean Patrick Jordan. I'm going to make some green eggs tonight. I already asked if we could have breakfast for dinner.
Starting point is 00:02:20 I'm going to make green eggs. I'm excited. It's fun. You just put a little food coloring in there and they're green. We also learned before you got presents on St. Patrick's Day as a kid. So if that was me, I would still celebrate it as an adult too. Definitely. It would be a treasured holiday.
Starting point is 00:02:38 When was the last time you checked the mail and expected like a birthday card with some money in it? Never. As an adult? Yeah, as an adult. When the last time you checked, when you were like... Do you remember it? Because I was old.
Starting point is 00:02:51 I was probably 30 when I was still expecting to get a couple bucks. 30? The truth is, as long as my grandparents were alive, the dark answer... Damn. Yeah, that's a grandparent's thing they call me the dark answer when i play trivia the dark answer they call you that on the basketball court too they do yeah the dark question shows up when we just stand across the court and stare at each other
Starting point is 00:03:18 you play yeah you play like in what the undertaker walked to the ring in right like a big cowl not easy to hoop in but you can find me in the paint if you want to. If you're really looking, I'll be down there. You also got Easter presents and 4th of July presents. Just so we can paint the entire picture for everybody. 4th of July presents is unhinged. Valentine's Day presents, I would get Halloween presents. Thanksgiving presents, I would get May Day.
Starting point is 00:03:42 We would do May Day. What? We would not get May Day presents. Not presents. For the first of May? But so when I say presents, I mean like she would get me like a basket and then it would have little presents in it and then like some money. Probably have like 10 bucks every time.
Starting point is 00:03:57 Were you an only child? Yeah. Yeah. Well, so my mom had a couple kids before me, but I didn't find out about them until I was 18. So I grew up an only child, but I had two brothers that I didn't know about for a long time. But regardless, yeah, I grew up an only child, and I think that's why I got spoiled.
Starting point is 00:04:17 But I didn't act spoiled. On May Day. What were your May Day presents, though? Was it like a picture of Laborly? Was it like a Eugene Debs-shaped chocolate? There was nothing that ever informed me as to what mayday actually was i still don't know i just know it's the first of may it's a pole right everyone dances around a pole is that mayday yeah it was like a fertility festival and then next was a uh and then it
Starting point is 00:04:39 became like a labor holiday right it was a fertility festival well you know like a spring it's spring it's may yeah like mid-samar kind of that kind of thing you would dress up in a big flower uh outfit and use every part of your face oh okay okay i forget there's a quote that dana likes to bring i forget who said it but it was about florence pew and like uh it's she uses her face like she's not saving it for later which i think is perfect she's such a good face actor you little women too just all the different crying faces shout out to florence this is a pro florence pew podcast it is it's also it's a pro saint patrick's day podcast even though that happened long in the past from when this drops and it's
Starting point is 00:05:21 a pro sean jordan podcast sean is jordan Twitter. Sean Cougar Mel Jordan on Instagram. Sean, coming to a city near you soon? You know, I'm going to be, it's funny you should bring it up, Ian. I'm going to be in Fort Collins, Colorado, April 7th and 8th. I heard people are going. You're going to be alone in that.
Starting point is 00:05:37 You don't think anyone's going. Mina, are you going to be in Fort Collins on Easter weekend? Yeah, crazy. I'm going. Oh shit, you're going? Oh, okay, there you go. I'll tell my mom to send two Easter presents.
Starting point is 00:05:47 One for me and one for you. So we can both get an Easter present. But anyway, that's that. Sorry, I got a phone call during that. It was Hollywood saying, we're ready for Sean Jordan. Yeah. My account did not fuck up. The time is now.
Starting point is 00:06:05 My account did not fuck up. My insurance is okay. Everything is hunky-dory. Do you feel bad about mentioning him at the top now? No. You can edit that out? Absolutely. No.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Because all we did here was take the lesser on a journey. You know what I mean? We started. We were beginning, middle, and end. I don't think that was on. Oh, wait. It was. You did.
Starting point is 00:06:23 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But what if he was listening at the beginning? Got so angry. Yeah. Didn't hear him redeemed. They got into their car and drove to.
Starting point is 00:06:34 I don't I don't know. I don't. Torrance or wherever my it is. My accountant is. And now they're like sitting out there just waiting. Like like taking a walk. Like, I can't believe when I first when i first moved to la i didn't want uber drivers thinking that i wasn't from there so i remember one time you you were
Starting point is 00:06:50 you were at some party and i wanted to leave and i i just had to so i had to get home in this uber driver he asked where i was from he goes born and raised in la i go now i'm from torrents i said it and i can't I can't remember it's from Boogie Nights Mark Wahlberg lives in Torrance Boogie Nights
Starting point is 00:07:08 and that's how I knew where I was like Torrance it's gotta be around here that's the roll of a dice because either there's no more follow up questions or there's some
Starting point is 00:07:15 very specific follow up questions so you must know you must know James James where'd you go to high school James James I worked at a P.F. Chang's in Torrance at the Del Amo Fashion Center the first time I lived in L.A.
Starting point is 00:07:31 I was nice with the sauce. I'm going to answer the question before you even ask it. Well, that was at your other jobs at the Del Amo Fashion Center where you were nice with the sauce too, right? I worked at every store at the Del Amo Fashion Center. I painted with a lot of brushes at the Del Amo Fashion Center. Guest jeans, I moved them. I moved units at the guest jeans store. Fort Collins, April 7th and 8th.
Starting point is 00:07:49 There he is. David Borey is here. Coolguyjoe87 on Instagram. Not on Twitter. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A decision that looks smarter and smarter every time I tweet. Is it going down over there? I just, I got.
Starting point is 00:08:02 No one seems to be having fun from what I can tell. It's the worst. I participated in a series of videos where, like, I found Bigfoot for the Portland Trailblazers. It's like their new mascot. That's fun, though. They have, like, a Bigfoot mascot. It's very silly. Oh, I know.
Starting point is 00:08:16 It's for the kids. Yeah. And I get tagged in all these, like, tweets, you know, because they they're like at Ian Carmel, help us find Bigfoot. And then like every tweet is like fire Chauncey Billups. Tell Jody to tell the team. Tell Jody to tell the team. Fire Chauncey Billups. This sucks.
Starting point is 00:08:33 And I'm tagged in like all of these. Ian Carmel's not funny. Ian Carmel's not funny. Tell them. Like everything that like it made me reconsider how I tweet where I'm like I'm never tweeting at an airline again. I'm never doing any of this stuff. Marissa, cut that out and save it for me reconsider how I tweet, where I'm like, I'm never tweeting in an airline again. I'm never doing any of this stuff. Marissa, cut that out and save it for me, please. I'm never tweeting in an airline.
Starting point is 00:08:50 I promise I'm never tweeting in an airline again. It felt like being in an overturned umbrella in the middle of the ocean in the middle of a hurricane. It was so terrible. That's never happened to you before? I've been in it before, but this was like, it's happened to me quite a few times. I've seen you mix it up. I follow you. Yeah, I throw some.
Starting point is 00:09:11 Absolutely. Well, that's the problem. I take a hit and then all of a sudden I'm in the boxing match and that's the problem. You know what I mean? Like I need to get, I need to be more passive, but I'm so, I feel like my blood pressure go up. I get like, I don't know. Like I feel like I blood pressure go up i get like i i don't know like i feel like i'm in the rain problem with twitter is it's like you're on yelp but you're the restaurant
Starting point is 00:09:30 and nobody goes on to yelp to be like i loved this place right the audience was terrific it's just a place for everyone to tell you how much you suck perfectly put that's all it is that's perfect how do you deal with it you get it like to magnitudes that i can't even holidays well the thing is mine is like a yelp but it's like you're maybe you know like nice restaurants like a little small hipster spot yeah i'm like mcdonald's uh so that's kind of self-aggrandizing in some ways. So I apologize for that. But my comments are just fucking insane. They just have nothing to do. Like, I'll just be like, hey, here's a cute picture of my dog.
Starting point is 00:10:11 And somebody will be like, why are you so hard on Aaron Rodgers? And you guys talk about him 24-7. And we all take three months to go. And I'm like, I don't remember that. You know, it's just. Does it kind of, does it like fall into the echo chamber after a while like do you stop yeah i just don't see most of i probably see like one percent of it yeah it actually does do a good job of kind of filtering out some of the more unhinged stuff
Starting point is 00:10:34 but every now and then it trickles in yeah yeah i can't i can't i can't i can't do it i can't i can't i can't deal with the internet i'm'm going to start tweeting nice things to both of you all the time. I'm just going to randomly tweet nice stuff. You think it's going to make it through all this Bigfoot hate? I'm going to put a little period before it so everyone will see it. That's how you do it, right? I can't just put an at. I have to put a period or something before it so everybody sees it.
Starting point is 00:10:58 So I'm going to be like, hey, and then I'll say some nice stuff. I'm going to do it today. Later today, randomly. You better. I will. That'll feel great. Yeah. I'm excited. This is going to be a nice stuff. I'm going to do it today. Thank you. Later today, randomly. You better. I will. That'll feel great. Yeah. I'm excited.

There you go. I hate how when you open it, it starts making noise immediately. Immediately. That's why it got out of there.
Starting point is 00:14:29 It's too loud. It's like, remember when MySpace, when you would go to people's profiles and they'd play a song that they had, which is wild in retrospect that we all did that. That's how I feel whenever I open the app. And sometimes I'm trying to open it quietly, like I'm in a public bathroom maybe. And it opens and it's like, ba-da-ba-da-ba-da-ba-da-ba-da. And I'm whenever I open the app. And sometimes I'm trying to open it quietly, like I'm in a public bathroom, maybe. And it opens and it's like, ba-da-ba-da-ba-da-ba-da-ba-da. And I'm like, oh!
Starting point is 00:14:49 Yeah. Or that woman's TikTok voice where it's like, this college student thought he was going to. And it's just like so loud and clear. Yeah. It's jarring. So loud. It feels like, it's like in war movies
Starting point is 00:15:04 when they're like sitting on a plane and then all of a sudden they open the back and it's like all right we're jumping like that kind of thing and it's a meat you're like immediately in it's the social media equivalent of it feels like reading a bathroom wall to me yeah like it's so fast some of it is an offensive yeah it's intense such a washed such a washed incredibly washed my back hurts i'm just gonna throw that in i'll take you i'll take you we are eating into my nap time i'll tell you that i'm going to a chiropractor literally you are you're going to a chiropractor after this complaining about your account you dusty old bastard accountant chiropractor later on i might even i might email
Starting point is 00:15:43 podiatrists just to see what's up, just to see what the mood is like. I went to a Ja Rule concert last week. I'm swimming in it. Wow. How was Ja? He was exactly like he wanted to be. It was amazing.
Starting point is 00:15:56 All hits. What are you talking about? Did you fall in love? Yeah, everybody did. That was what we all went there for. It was Mace for some reason. Sure. Ja Rule, Ashanti, Fat Joe. That was what we all went there for. It was Mace for some reason. Sure. Ja Rule, Ashanti, Fat Joe.
Starting point is 00:16:07 That guy Lloyd was there. It was a great time. Throwing it out there. Mina, you're invited to October 17th, Portland, Oregon. Nas and Wu-Tang Clan at the Moda Center. Just saying. I'm just saying. Wow.
Starting point is 00:16:19 You're the only one who doesn't have to travel, though, for that. That might be something that is in there. It just so happens they're going to be in Portland. Who's to say I have to travel though for that that might be something that is in there it just so happens they're gonna be in portland who's to say i have to travel across town just saying just saying well we're all gonna go i think i think all four of us can sort of commit to that right now for sure i'll get the tickets done great uh my name is ian carmel at ian carmel on twitter at ian carmel on instagram at ian carmel on tK as well, where I have posted six times, each of them communicating only that I clearly do not understand what Tik
Starting point is 00:16:52 TOK is for. Oh, so you're not even posting clips. You're like, I was doing, I did like a silly voice in one of them. I did like a funny sign. I thought I saw.
Starting point is 00:17:02 And then, and then I'm like, okay, I don't get, I don't get this. I don't. Are you getting traction though? No. It would be kind of tight just to do a hell of videos about how you don't understand how TikTok works.
Starting point is 00:17:15 We had Charlie D'Amelio on the show on the late, late show. And I was like, this will be my, a good way for me to join TikTok. And I just took like a TikTok of her walking out to the couch thinking like this will blow up because anything involving a D'Amelio cyst is going to blow up. Like 16 views. Like nothing. Nowhere. Absolutely. I'm terrible at it.
Starting point is 00:17:35 Apparently you have to post like three times a day for the algorithm to like favor you. That's what my wife was telling me. She's like very good at TikTok. So you have to be like on there. That's the other thing I don't like is the algorithm is like a mirror you don't want to look at, right? Because it's – so a lot of mine are just videos about how to be good on TikTok. So I'm watching TikTok. I use all these videos being like, you suck at this.
Starting point is 00:18:02 But then they're still feeding me because clearly i'm watching them so it's a reminder of my own thirst and fertility at the same time hate it it's like it's like a gym that has mirrors on every wall where you're like there's no way i can't see how bad i am i don't need every angle damn it i hate sometimes i like the mirror at the gym you don't know if i'm just curling. You can wink at yourself. It's kind of fun. Get yourself to 10. You can come see me in Denver, Colorado at Comedy Works, June 22nd, 23rd, 24th.
Starting point is 00:18:36 I think those are the dates. If not, they're somewhere around there. Buy tickets to it. I did stand up last night, and I reminded myself that I'm good at it. So scoop those tickets while you can listen to all fantasy everything watch the late late show of which there are when this comes out uh merely three more weeks of so get it in while you can i guess four more weeks but like uh yeah check it out and be excellent to one another now we are gathered here today not only to talk about me
Starting point is 00:19:01 lifting weights in the mirror at the gym just sort sort of giving myself a casual wink, having a great time, but to fantasy draft Saturday morning cartoons, a treasured institution that I don't even think exists anymore. Do they not have like a Saturday morning blog? Wow. Yeah. Not that I could see. They don't,
Starting point is 00:19:20 right? Yeah. Cause it's not, you know, not a lot of like, I don't think kids are getting up and watching like tv tv too much right they're watching nfl live well yeah of course they do clearly yeah that's how they find out santa isn't real wait wait wait wait wait why don't kids is
Starting point is 00:19:37 it because kids have to go to like mandarin class or at the end now like what is that helicopter parents are like yes having them to learn mandarin robotics and coding what is how what is helicopter parent is that good or bad bad i can never it's bad yeah that's that's where you're like hovering yes okay all right and like like uh micromanaging every little thing the one person with a kid i'm like you know the video of the woman getting airlifted where she spins around so many times? It doesn't even work.
Starting point is 00:20:13 That's a classic helicopter parent. That's the kind of helicopter parent I'd be. It makes me think of that guy, Helicopter from Anne 1. Do you remember that guy? Did you guys watch Anne 1? I did. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Is this weird? No, no. R.I.P. Escalade? No, I watched it. Of course I watched it. I don't remember Helicopter, though. I remember Hot Sauce, The Professor, White Chocolate, Skip to My Lou. There was a guy named White Chocolate? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:38 No. Wasn't there? I don't think there was. There was. Our ages, by the way, is probably going to really heavily influence this draft. You saying that? Oh, 100%. Because you're like 10 years younger than us.
Starting point is 00:20:49 I'm assuming late 30s, mid-late 30s. Oh, he's not actually 28. He's not actually 28. Oh, that's a joke. That was a joke. No, this is the best day ever. You don't look 28. I'm kidding, you look 28.
Starting point is 00:21:03 Clearly I do, Sean. I know you do. I'm kidding. You look 28. Clearly I do, Sean. I know you do. I'm a gentleman's 41, so I'll be coming in. Class of 05. Yeah, class of Robert Parrish over here. So I'll be coming in with some more relevant choices. I'm 37. So we're all in the same ballpark.
Starting point is 00:21:22 We're on that same gym here. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're drafting from the same pool, I think. Once again, I'm the old wise owl of the show. Not a problem. Saturday morning cartoons kind of started their heyday in the 1960s. Part of it was a government mandate that every network had to have a select block of children's programming. And this was how the networks, which of which there were,
Starting point is 00:21:45 there wasn't cable back then. This was kind of how they fulfilled that by putting children's programming on Saturday morning, which wasn't like a hotspot, but they knew kids were home. And then it started to like gain traction. Kids started watching it. And then it was huge for the sixties,
Starting point is 00:21:59 the seventies, the eighties. Then with the rise of cable, all of a sudden other networks started airing cartoons all day or at different times of day and then all of a sudden that saturday morning slot became a little less coveted a little less impactful and thus the death of saturday morning cartoons and now die like what in the uh in the 2000s was when they say okay so when i was really old for it yeah because i was gonna say i i thought it was cooking up until the time i left i can't sometimes in the 2000s was when they say, okay. So when I was really old for it, cause I was going to say,
Starting point is 00:22:25 I thought it was cooking up until the time I left. I can't, sometimes I'll turn like, cause I'm on the, on the YouTube TV, wherever my equivalent of network is now on like a Saturday morning, you go over there, they can't find it.
Starting point is 00:22:35 There's no, there's no, sometimes you'll see like an animal show, like whatever the wild crats is. I feel like I say that started to get into, to like, like just live action shows or whatever.
Starting point is 00:22:46 Those started to like sneak their way and like Saved by the Bell and stuff. Those were when I got into like my teen years I remember
Starting point is 00:22:53 what the fuck was the other one? California Dream. California Dreamin'? California Dreamin'. Yeah. That was the other one I'd watch with that sly dude. It was just a rip off
Starting point is 00:23:01 of Saved by the Bell. Like a little newer. What was the basketball one? The Reggie Theus? They had a band. Yeah, they had a band. Yeah, I mean you remember Saved by the bell like a little newer what was the basketball one that reggie theist was like yeah they had a band yeah i mean you remember saved by the bell had a band too with mr cooper attack no that was friday night though are you talking about uh city guys it was a bat what it was a show where reggie theist was a basketball coach so mina and all those shows and saved by the bell in california dreaming i used to think maybe they were in california dreaming but i used to think it was actually like
Starting point is 00:23:26 Mark Paul Gosselaar and Mario Lopez singing when they were the Zack Attack. I was like, those guys are pretty good singers too, on top of being amazing actors at the time for me. They could do it all. It wasn't them singing. I don't remember the Zack Attack, like what their sound was like.
Starting point is 00:23:44 Yeah, what was it like a Duran Duran kind of thing? When, do you remember there was that one episode? It's a hard sound garden. It was that one episode where it cut to them in the future and Casey Kasem was on the episode. And he goes, they had that song, Friends forever. Forever.
Starting point is 00:23:58 Always will be friends. So Zach and Slater sing and I was like, these fucking guys can do it. Is the infamous you know i'm so excited jesse taking pills hot sunday she was in the oh she had her own band it was her and kelly and lisa they were in hot sunday different hot sunday yes that was what their band was called that was zach was their manager racy yeah and she was getting she was addicted to like notos or whatever they were called what caffeine? Caffeine pills, right? Go fast.
Starting point is 00:24:25 Yeah. Some of that trucking. Some yellow jackets. Crank. She was addicted to crank. Jesse, where'd you get this crank? Modesto? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:44 That was that season David Mamet wrote of Saved by the Bell. He came in for one season I just drove out to Barstow and got this crank so I could be in Hot Sundays stop it Zach now the way we determine the order of this draft is through a rollicking game of rock paper scissors play between the three of you and we throw on shoot here we go
Starting point is 00:25:00 I really want number one if I win you can have it it's contentious don't say that Sean play like a champion come on play like a champion yeah go for it rock paper scissor shoot damn
Starting point is 00:25:16 we play again we play again rock paper scissor shoot tell me to win a natural victory a rock against you didn't let me have it because i said i wanted it right no i always want to how was i gonna yeah i can't let you have rock paper scissors even if i want i wouldn't know how to let somebody win rock paper scissors okay i think we've played rock paper scissors amongstissors amongst like you know like more than
Starting point is 00:25:46 we're probably in the top 1% of people who have played Rock Paper Scissors to this point the amount of games we play maybe I don't know people in prison probably oh yeah people in prison as a kid we played it for everything I'm just picturing all these people
Starting point is 00:26:02 in prison just being like Rock Paper Scissors I can't do any more sit-ups. You want to play rock, paper, scissors for a while? You don't have props. Yeah, that's true. I bet they have like complex games or I'm like Navy submarines. You know what I mean? Where there's like 16 options. Sure.
Starting point is 00:26:19 Our Amina as the winner of rock, paper, scissors, it is incumbent upon you to determine the order of today's draft. But before you do that, I'll remind you, it is a serpentine draft. And what is that? That's a great question. It's like if you're braiding someone's hair, I think.
Starting point is 00:26:32 You take three. If you're French braiding, you take three. You cross one over. So you go down a little bit, cross it over. And then you grab this side. You go down a little bit and cross it over to the right. And then you go down this side. I've had to do a lot of these, Mina.
Starting point is 00:26:47 I try to make them different every time. That's not even close to a good serpentine explanation. I mean, if you're making Princess Leia braids, maybe. Okay, so if you're making Princess Leia braids and then you start on one side and then you go to the left and then go down a little bit and then go to the right
Starting point is 00:27:03 and then down a little bit and then to the left and then go down a little bit and then go to the right and then down a little bit and then to the left. And then, you know, you have a sort of a serpentine type braid type situation. And, you know, it's like that. As the father of a daughter, do you feel like you should have a better grasp on braids or is this or is that something that's common? Are you going to learn to braid? I know how I know the concept. I think we all know the concept. It's the weave.
Starting point is 00:27:28 I mean, I know how to do it on a basketball. Well, I know how it's supposed to be done on a basketball court, so I should just be able to transfer that to hair. I think so. Isn't it the same concept? Like one in the middle, then this one in the middle, and that one in the middle? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:27:44 Yeah. I mean, sort of. Is that a basketball drill? Right. the middle than this one in the middle and that one in the middle i don't know yeah i mean sort of is that a basketball drill right the three-man weave three-man weave absolutely ball doesn't touch the floor teamwork princeton yeah running it um so i get to choose that's right if you pick fourth in the first round you pick second and or you pick first in the first round, you pick second, or you pick first in the second round. There it is. Mina, what is the order of today's draft going to be? Okay. I'll go, people can't see the Zoom,
Starting point is 00:28:12 down and around. So I'll go David, Ian, Sean, and then back around. Wait, you don't want to go first? You want to go first. Oh, I'm first. Yeah, I meant after me. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:21 Oh, okay. Please, yeah. So Mina, David, Ian, me. I'm last? You're last. No, it's a hot corner. I get two for the price of one. Two strips of bacon on that cartoon burger.
Starting point is 00:28:34 That's all right. Put me in the middle. Put me in the middle. I'll clear out space. Low post. Dangerous low post game. Here we go. Mina, you have the first pick,
Starting point is 00:28:40 and we're going to get to that first pick right after this short break. This episode of all fantasy, you have the first pick and we're going to clear your mind up. It's going to keep your anxiety at bay, which, man, wouldn't that be nice? And it's going to do it all day long. It's like a Swiss army knife for your mind. Might sound like a magic pill. I know I said it before, but that's, I swear to God, it's the plot of Limitless. It might sound like that, but you can actually get it done. You know, there's the magic of microdosing with Schedule 35. Their products, they're backed by science and dosed to a precise amount so you get exactly
Starting point is 00:29:33 what you need to tackle your toughest days and you don't get the hallucinogenic effects. I feel like there's a lot of stigma attached with things like this. But Schedule 35, they're on a mission to de-stigmatize and educate on the science and real-world benefits of psilocybin, of which there are a ton. And they also want to make it accessible for everyone. Each order ships discreetly. No one's going to get in your business. No one's going to be in your kitchen stirring your Kool-Aid. It just comes in a nice little box. And it comes with a microdosing regime that keeps you on track. So you start small.
Starting point is 00:30:07 I think that's the key to this. You start small and just let it ride. I know so many people do it. So, so, so many people do it. I don't think you're going to be disappointed. I strongly advise you give it a shot. And if you do, you get 15% off with code ALLFANTASY at schedule35.co. That's 15% off at schedule35.co and use promo code all fantasy
Starting point is 00:30:28 yeah we're back welcome back to all fantasy everything the only podcast that has ever existed except of course for the minikheim show featuring lenny but that's it those are the two only two if you want a podcast you got a long drive coming up you got yourself two options how did that get made we'll tell tell you. We'll tell you. Talk and draft is a lot on my podcast too in the coming months, so there's a little synergy there. Yeah, fantastic. We're happy to come on. Anything you
Starting point is 00:30:54 want to draft, talk about menu items. We've got a lot of experience. I heard it loud and clear. Do you have strong opinions about which addresser should go first in the coming NFL draft? Big time. If any of you can name a single prospect
Starting point is 00:31:10 in this coming draft, you have an invitation to come on. Anthony Richardson? Is he the quarterback? Damn it. Yeah. Yeah. Arms is in.
Starting point is 00:31:19 Yeah. You're in. Bryce Young. Is he too small? Is he too small to make it in the NFL? Save this. What was that hand measurement? Nine and a half inches?
Starting point is 00:31:30 Oh, that's the guy from Alabama, right? Yes. Is that the guy from Alabama? Let me try to name one. Tatum Hutchinson. Are you just saying names? Tatum Hutchinson sounds like a gritty white edge rusher who has deceptive speed and is the coach's son, but it's not a real
Starting point is 00:31:47 human. You didn't catch him in the combine? So all I'm hearing is I know something you don't about this subject, so I should probably definitely be invited on. No, I couldn't tell you one to save my daughter's life. So yeah, nope. Ian's locked in. I don't know. I don't think it's a big deal that
Starting point is 00:32:03 Devin Witherspoon didn't attend the combine. He proved so much playing cornerback in Illinois. Did you Google in the air. Thank you. Ian's locked in. I don't know. I don't think it's a big deal that Devin Witherspoon didn't attend the Combine. You know, he proved so much playing cornerback in Illinois. Did you Google in the last 10 seconds while Sean was talking? That's not the kind of thing I would do. You bring in stuff. Cheating a little.
Starting point is 00:32:16 A little cheating. A little cheating. Well, let's get it. I think we're drafting Saturday morning cartoons, I think. It feels like we got off track for a second there. I would never google anything I'm actually
Starting point is 00:32:28 I'm going to check out this google website you brought up after the podcast but I'm excited to see what that is you can find some stuff on there I'll tell you what you're going to have a day you're going to have a good day man you can also have a really bad day depending on what you type into that little bar that you're going to see
Starting point is 00:32:44 look up videos of old turtles and moose running through things. I'm excited for the day. I digress. You do digress. Mina, it is time for your first pick. The first pick in the Saturday morning cartoon draft. So I really wanted the first pick to make a football comparison. I feel like with this draft, there's like a surefire, gotta have it, number one.
Starting point is 00:33:04 Andrew Luck, can't miss generational prospect i actually have a prop which is great for podcasts i hear give me three seconds this is a prop cast so it's gonna work out great andrew luck oh my god she came back with a gun okay i'm back i i okay so like i actually am like a i wouldn't say a super fan but kind of a super fan of this cartoon to the point where i still talk about it as an adult it is my first overall pick oh yeah x-, the animated series. Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da- Every episode, we taped them all on VHS so we could go back and watch them later. It is truly like Beowulf for children. Just epic plot lines, incredible characters, story arcs that transcended seasons.
Starting point is 00:34:23 I think one of the greatest television shows of all time, not even just one of the greatest Saturday morning cartoons of all time. It was so, it was so good. There were a few of these like superhero cartoons that were amazing, but this one was like, you're right. There's a premiere. Multiple season arcs,
Starting point is 00:34:35 like complex storytelling. Also, that's a great X-Men lineup. Like, you know how over the years, some of the X-Men lineups, you're like, that's like,
Starting point is 00:34:43 that's like, like the TV, like Gambit was in there he's from new orleans like it was just like a very good it's just a very good x-men lineup beast is so great like i also feel like it has to be the horniest he was the only one cut loose he's out there gambling cut loose all the time well wolverine was cutting loose every now and then well that was because yeah but yeah he was but he's in love with gene gray yeah yeah he was in love with gene gray but he would i i i remember as a kid thinking he was so funny because of his one-liners. Yeah. Called people bub. You know, like he was always fucking with Cyclops. Because Cyclops is a nerd.
Starting point is 00:35:30 Cyclops is a square. Yeah. Such a snitch. Scott Summers. He even has a square name. Come on. Square. Professor X was in the hovering wheelchair.
Starting point is 00:35:42 It's all great. The plot lines, though, like they were like the one where Phoenix went dark. That last like episodes was incredible. They did the secret wars. They did all, they did like everything going back and forth in time to try and stop apocalypse with Bishop. And I,
Starting point is 00:36:00 I just, it was a lot for a kid, a lot. I was very dialed in. The movies came out and they did, I love Taylor Kitsch. And the Gambit, it just didn't work. And it's like it would have been so fun to see a cool, dope Gambit. And it just didn't translate.
Starting point is 00:36:17 Do you know what Gambit's real name is? Like his non-X-Men name? It's super Creole, isn't it? Gambo Buthro. It's Remy Etienne Labo. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Of course it is. That's what it was.
Starting point is 00:36:29 A bit much. I actually don't, I don't need the hot sauce. I don't need the hot sauce. This gumbo's spicy enough on its own. You keep it. Isn't Channing Tatum supposed to be Gambit? Channing Tatum was supposed to do a Gambit?
Starting point is 00:36:43 Yeah, he was supposed to do a Gambit yeah he was supposed to do a gambit he would be great i bet taylor okay i love taylor kitch i just really was hoping i'm not wrong right i don't know i don't know man i don't remember that yeah for me the live movies some of them are fine but they've never lived up to x-men the animated series yeah that's fair beast was great in the animated series too like like he's a smart guy but he's not a nerd no like he is kind of like you would always have like a lab coat sometimes i would say you know he was like okay that's yeah an old kind of smart yeah there was just stuff they could do in the cartoon that they couldn't do in the movies even with us even now even with his like the cartoon that they couldn't do in the movies, even now.
Starting point is 00:37:25 Even with the amazing technology they have now that would just, I don't know, lose us something. Well, yeah, totally. Cartoons are where it's at anyways. They're supposed to be animated. They had Juggernaut, dude. Juggernaut in the cartoons with the big fucking... Did you ever see those videos somebody made? That was a Fashion Nova.
Starting point is 00:37:44 Like Goldberg from the top of his head to his shoulder. All the way to his shoulders. cartoons with the big fucking did you ever see those videos somebody made like goldberg's from the top of his head to his shoulder they just all the way to his shoulders but like the do you ever like an early it was like an early internet like i'm the juggernaut bitch did you ever see those videos somebody oh yeah yeah yeah i'm the juggernaut bitch they're like they're pretty funny it's i there's no way i'm gonna do them justice and i'm not gonna try but do yourself a little favor if you're sitting in a bathroom stall and you've already let everyone know you're looking at your phone by opening TikTok, go ahead and switch to the juggernaut next. I just had a flashback of when Wolverine, like, he, like, cut up.
Starting point is 00:38:17 Maybe it was probably Cyclops' car, because he was frankly kind of bullying him. And I just remember being like, I made you a convertible, bub. And he's like, I made you a convertible, bub. And me as a kid being like, no! Not even that funny, but as a kid. Poor Scott's like, I have to drive in this. I paid for this, Logan. It's raining. We live in Connecticut.
Starting point is 00:38:40 I don't much care, do I, bub? He's just smoking a cigar. Like, what the fuck? In the rain. He's like, what the fuck? In the rain. He's like, my cigar stays lit in the rain. You can drive your new convertible in the rain. I'd be so pissed. You openly hit on my girlfriend and now you fuck my car up, dude?
Starting point is 00:38:55 We work together. That's so funny. It would be tough having such an important job with somebody who just would not stop hitting on your girlfriend ever you're like i can't quit i have to i gotta be here we're doing bigger things he must have had some tense meetings with charles yeah it's just like we gotta get rid of this guy he's like we can't man we can't he's a loose kid we don't want him joining the other you want him joining the other side scott because i sure don't yeah he's volatile like can you just wreck my car yeah well scott some people don't even have a car are you gonna get me a new kia professor x are you gonna
Starting point is 00:39:34 get me a new sportage if that's what it's gonna take scott this guy was more powerful like cyclops could shoot lasers out of his eyes yeah wolverine was just a really good fighter yeah he was like regenerative but like yeah he could have just blasted him in the face right control one would think i don't know yeah i don't know we all respected him less for not doing it that's what sucks about it is we were all like this fucking guy if you know someone's regenerative then just do it anyways every time he he pissed me off, I would laser beam a hole in his stomach. Just a little one in his leg.
Starting point is 00:40:08 Like that. Like you're spraying a cat. Like you're spraying a cat. Oh, man. Next one in the animated series. It's a great pick. It's an Andrew Luck. David Boyd, time for your first pick. I bet he would
Starting point is 00:40:24 drive a fucking kia a nice kia so my pick is uh later so this was one of the last saturday morning cartoons i remember watching it i remember watching regularly but it was also like one of the most all-encompassing kids cartoons ever as far as like when i was a kid, I used to watch cartoon shows that were kids living in their own world by their own rules. Oh, yeah. That was like the exciting thing to reflect on for me. I know what it is. So I'm taking recess.
Starting point is 00:40:57 Damn it. Oh, yeah. It was just everything you want. They had a king of the kids who lived in a town. It was everything you wanted out of a cartoon. And they were fifth graders, which I feel is right about the age that I was when I was kind of like, this was the last cartoon I did big. All the characters, iconic. You had all the types.
Starting point is 00:41:20 The big, giant poet. The big, strong guy who's actually a sweet poet. The tiny, quirky lady who's going to fight everybody. The athlete. TJ Detweiler, All-American, just good boy. Great show, man. Also, when you're in third grade or second grade, fifth graders are so fucking cool.
Starting point is 00:41:38 That's the crazy part. I remember these kids. Cave to the school. Cave to the school. There were a fight. These kids were Kevin and Shay These two kids I remember
Starting point is 00:41:47 I'll remember forever They organized a fight They were fifth graders And I was a second grader And I watched And it was like watching And I watched It was like watching Titans
Starting point is 00:41:56 You know And I'd look back I'm like god I bet it was I'm sure like just some I don't know Just fifth graders fighting Doesn't seem like it'd be that gnarly But to me
Starting point is 00:42:04 It was like watching two Adonises It does when you're in third grade it was crazy to see it was scary i don't know yeah fifth graders seemed gnarly so that's not what happened in recess though they were like more like fun hygiene they weren't like at risk youth but we were talking like before david about how like when you're a kid you have like what seems like an eon is two seasons of television i feel like that same thing is like captured in recess where it's like the world on a in simply recess seems so big and like yeah it is it's like a self-governing you know principles that was ah that was the best about it is like yeah i like shows where it wasn't kids interfering and they just there was lore there was so much lore that was going on and then like it was one of those
Starting point is 00:42:49 shows that had two episodes in a half hour so i think that like doubles it you know what i mean where it's like it's too many ones so yeah just to speak to that shorter amount of time that it was on it felt like it was twice the show What kind of recess kids were all of you? I mean, my whole life could arguably be modeled after Angela Spinelli. I even dressed like her as an adult. Are you kidding me? The tomboy who secretly had a crush on TJ. So cool. I'm trying to think.
Starting point is 00:43:23 We all would love to think that we were tj detweilers obviously i think that i was like a mikey with a little more vince but even without even without the show i because i i i have to admit i didn't see i didn't see recess i think i was i think it just i think it was just a little too old yeah but like what were you getting what was everyone getting up to a recess oh it was like i remember it was like a lot of ongoing football games like you know you'd have like a football game that just lasted all year kind of thing
Starting point is 00:43:51 we used to play tackle football on the pavement we didn't have a we just played on the playground which is I played on Foursquare did you guys have all the tricks like no spinnies no black tricks like no spinnies no black magic like no super found
Starting point is 00:44:06 oh my god do you remember black magic where you spin it back it was like you put some English on it who was the first kid to come up with that cause it made it everywhere it bounced from school to school he tells everybody and nobody believes him
Starting point is 00:44:23 he's like you know I invented black magic this is a fascination of mine how things at one school like we all grew up in different states in different times and we all know what that is that's so weird yeah that is crazy that that is bizarre i wonder if kids are still doing that like i mean i still see four score in all these playgrounds that we go to they still have it they must yeah i wonder if it's like it's like the easiest game to facilitate no not if they're still playing i guess i wonder if the if the moves have evolved the same way that every other sport evolves you think they're still using those big red balls that hurt so much yeah yeah ours were blue ours were red you remember those blue never mind yeah the kickball balls yeah they had the little diamonds on them yeah
Starting point is 00:45:03 they'll see it blasted in the face with one of those. Such a satisfying thwack, though. You hear it inside your head? Either there's a... This was like through a circuit of cousins visiting each other and then taking it back to whatever city
Starting point is 00:45:21 they were from, and then that's how the network grew. Or there's a Johnny Appleseed. That's interesting. A four square. Who just kept going around. An eternal youth, a new American folk figure. Who's just gone from town to town to town.
Starting point is 00:45:34 I think about this a lot because we grew up pre internet as kids. Right. And like how everybody knew the same urban legends, like about Richard Gere and the hamster i'm like absolutely every kid at every school i guess like everybody all over the place i in portland we have that i think it's like i think it's like cousins and things like that and like cross-pollinating all these stories across you know not the globe but the country wouldn't you think like you'd talk to someone from Vermont and then they
Starting point is 00:46:05 would have like a variation there, but like, Oh, it wasn't Richard gear and a hamster for us. It was like, it was Jeff Daniels and a mongoose or like, like that would be like a regional Stephen King with a lobster. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:17 But there's not. Yeah. It's just like the same. It's my mom. My mom's still to this day. I bring it. I brought it up the last time i was home she still believes that she still believes the marilyn manson uh rib thing another classic of the genre
Starting point is 00:46:31 it's gotta be classic um to put the playground thing though we for for a while i started like a anti-bully walk around the playground sort of task force thing yes you do me and me and like three kids we'd walk around and we'd we'd force thing. Yes, you did. That is the most narc-ass shit. We would walk around and we'd try to make sure kids weren't getting bullied. I remember doing that for what seems like a long time.
Starting point is 00:46:52 Well, now we know which recess kid you were, the rat. Remember that kid? Yeah, Randall. Randall. Mrs. Hinton. Who would always go to Miss Finster.
Starting point is 00:47:02 And he was like her eyes and ears. There was Miss Finster and then there was the hippie teacher who was like the chiller oh yeah there was she was their homeroom teacher yeah miss grope don't remember her name but she would not be able to teach in florida today because she was like i'm teaching crt to those kids that she had from my making that up she had like the cat eyeeye glasses? Yes. Very cool lady. Yeah. Totally. Yeah, she was great.
Starting point is 00:47:28 Man, what a good show. Yeah, that show ripped. And there was the king of the children. I loved that. They had to address him as King Bob. He was just like some kid who was in sixth grade. Hilarious. Excellent pick.
Starting point is 00:47:41 Time for my first pick. I'm going to take... I'm going classic, but I'm going to take, I'm going, I'm going classic, but I'm going to classic that is held up. That is entertained generations that has embedded itself in our culture. So firmly that I, I believe my grandchildren will be watching some iteration of Scooby-Doo. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:03 Yeah. I mean, it's never going to stop. It's so good. It's class. it's class it's it's it's it's a mystery of the week you got you got a funny stoner kid you got a jock archetype wait before we knew what weed was by the way there's like a stoner kid and you don't know what weed is yeah that was one for the adults watching you know like with their kids where they're like this dude shaggy is blazed out of his mind and we were just like this dude likes snacks and i can relate to that this guy this guy's cool
Starting point is 00:48:29 i don't know what it is but well scooby too just ripped i mean they're both ripped out of their gourd it's like shaggy was blowing the hits of scooby's face all day scooby would have red eyes they would get they would be high they'd show them like high and then they'd show like coming down a little bit but yeah they were fucking high but like that was the heart of the show right like does anybody really remember back and you're like I love Freddie and nobody was Fred no
Starting point is 00:48:53 some people were Velma Velma was a sexual awakening for a lot of people but yeah now they've said is lesbian yeah that's right that's the one that Mindy Kaling wore yeah Mindy Kaling wore on Linda. Mindy Kaling wore it on. Linda Cardellini. It's real next.
Starting point is 00:49:07 I think was the movie. Yeah, yeah. I have a little bit of an aside, but because of Scooby-Doo, I had misconceptions that dogs enjoyed weed. So, a little story. I didn't intentionally do this, but I came downstairs once a few years ago, and my beloved dog, Lenny, who kind of looks a little bit like Scooby-Doo, Scrappy-Doo more, I come downstairs, and I'm like, wow, it's weird.
Starting point is 00:49:36 It's 4 p.m. He's usually agitating for his dinner. Don't see him. Don't hear him. I turn, and he's just sitting on the armchair staring at me just fucking staring eyes wide as saucers and i'm like what the what's going on with my dog whatever and i'm like is he okay he's like shaking a little bit and then i like look around i'm like oh fuck i look at a little dish i had on the coffee table. It's empty. I look back at Lenny and he's staring at me and he's so upset. Just like fucking. I know.
Starting point is 00:50:12 And we've all had like the friend who doesn't react well to it, you know, in high school. And it's just like, you know, I think UFOs and like whatever. And I didn't think I, but honestly I was a little disappointed.
Starting point is 00:50:24 Cause I was like, this is, I didn't think i but honestly i was a little disappointed because i was like this is i didn't think you'd be this that dude you wanted a party what did you do did you turn on some like tam and paula and try to like uh just like get them into it yeah i was like you want snacks yeah i've got like munchies for you no i just like sat there with him and waited it out. But he was miserable. Miserable. That's tough. And you can't be like, it's temporary.
Starting point is 00:50:49 It's all right. Enjoy it. Lean into it. Lean into it, bro. Or do the thing where you just need more. Yeah. Yeah. You just need to take it up a notch.
Starting point is 00:50:59 That's all. I'm like that. I just cannot handle it. And probably once a year I try because I want to be able to handle it. Just something with my chemistry. I just can't. It just doesn't work. That's unfortunate. That's okay.
Starting point is 00:51:13 It's fine that you don't smoke weed. You can be Fred, dude. You're Fred. It's alright. You're still in the van, bro. Yeah, you and your buddies just go run around telling everybody we'll smoke some weed with Scooby. I took my anti-bully movement to the grown-up world. You know what? No bullies in the world, all right?
Starting point is 00:51:29 No bullies either. No bullies. Now, what that is is an iconic turn of phrase. Put it in my quote book. There it is. Yeah. Scooby-Doo. I loved it.
Starting point is 00:51:42 It was on probably Cartoon network is probably where i saw but it was a saturday morning cartoon i just loved it i love i love when they teamed up with the harlem globetrotters great song classic characters fun like guest stars all the time you got like all the people vincent price you got all the people of the day like coming on for one episode doing a voice it's just it's just classic saturday morning fun it's archetypal yeah so that's my first pick scuba stupas sean jordan time for your first and second picks scooby dooby do my favorite favorite thing in the whole world was he-man so he-man i mean it was hands i mean by far and away my favorite i had all the action figures.
Starting point is 00:52:26 I just worshipped the show. I loved everything about it. I still think it's super dope. I still like the movie. I still like the action figures. Every single thing. I had the sword. We couldn't afford the castle,
Starting point is 00:52:39 so my stepdad made me Castle Greyskull out of cardboard. I think we talked about that like a month ago. Wow. Yeah, I mean, he, you know. That's so cool. I look back, and it's funny because I remember it being amazing
Starting point is 00:52:48 and that's the memory that I want but I'd love to see it now. I'd like to feel like what I remember he had like shoelaces and made like a little drawbridge and everything. He really
Starting point is 00:52:56 That sounds pretty good. Pretty legit. Yeah. And I just I just loved I loved everything about it. Skeletor just scared the shit out of me
Starting point is 00:53:04 which I loved. So scary. Like an actual cartoon that could scare you. My aunt's name is Lynn. Well, skeletons aren't supposed to be buff. That's what they figured out on that show. Skeletons have existed in the past, and they were phony, and they were scary in their way. But then they were like, what if we made a skeleton buff? And then all of a sudden Skeletor existed.
Starting point is 00:53:21 He looked like a boxer coming out because he had a hood with no shirt. No shirt? Yeah. Nobody had a shirt looked like a boxer coming out because he had a hood with no shirt. No shirt? Yeah, so he was like, you look like- Nobody had a shirt. Jonathan Major's coming out or something. Yeah, it was wild. A lot of bondage gear.
Starting point is 00:53:32 He may have was a little sexual. Very. It felt more than a little, huh? Crazy. My brother had the action figure and so I didn't watch the show, but the He-Man action figure played a large role
Starting point is 00:53:44 in my Barbie cinematic universe. Because he was the one that Barbie was always cheating on Ken with in my world. Who are you telling? I feel like three different times we've gone to the storyline of the snitch and the bad boy. And this is the third time. The snitch and the bad boy. Stop saying pigs. He was also just this buff freak
Starting point is 00:54:08 with a page boy haircut. His haircut was so weird. His name was He-Man. Everything about him was wild. What the fuck was that haircut though? No buff dude has ever had that haircut. He looked like a little Dutch boy. Prince Valiant.
Starting point is 00:54:22 When you break that down, it's some some executive being like all right we want this dude to be super gay but what's a name that does not sound gay he man he and man nobody nobody will get it we're gonna have pink tights everything else no clothing except for maybe some bondage across his nipples and uh but we're gonna call him he man so it's still gonna get in there right on these and he's gonna cock ken He-Man. So it's still going to get in there. Right on these. And he's going to cock Ken.
Starting point is 00:54:47 That's what they should call him. He had his old dude friend. I can't remember his name, but it was like the guy who, even in the cartoon, looked like he was about 60. His main guy, he had shaggy gray hair and a mustache. Remember that guy?
Starting point is 00:55:03 I don't remember he man very well though that's like well the earliest cartoons yes yeah i mean this that's what i was like four or five this was i tried to make the list where going off cartoons that i actually like vividly remembered watching on saturday morning right so um to start anyway so yeah i engage with he man via hand-me-down toys from my older brother dude Dude, I was... I had... They had the action, though. You remember where you would turn it and it would snap back? Dude, they had skunk war.
Starting point is 00:55:29 They had one called skunk war that you just twist his waist a bunch and he stunk. It's like so dope. There was a dude... There was like a sucker mouth guy where he squeezed on him and he shot water out.
Starting point is 00:55:38 Like... Merman. Yeah. Back before these names were taken so they could just be like, yeah, we'll call him Merman. Now you can't do that because He-Man did it. They had the, yeah, anyway, they had slime,
Starting point is 00:55:49 that you could buy slime, and I got it all over the carpet. Anyway, loved He-Man. And so, second pick, the next thing that I remember vividly seeing on Saturday morning, which is just He-Man for animals, was Thundercats. Oh, yeah. Second choice. Sword of Omen, give me Seppi on sight. morning which is just he-man for animals was thundercats oh yeah oh yeah second choice sort
Starting point is 00:56:05 of omen give me side beyond sight yeah there i mean it really is he-man he-man for animals because mumra was definitely skeleton mumra if you watch that intro i've talked about it a few times but that intro is terrifying still to this day the voice that mumra makes because he goes from this feeble little like just old man and then flips out like a typhoon and then he turns into a giant buff mummy. And it's terrifying. And his voice is scary. They took the thesis they had explored in He-Man,
Starting point is 00:56:33 which was what if a skeleton was buff? And then they were like, well, what if a cat was buff? And what if a mummy was buff? That's what I'm saying. I do think the Thundercats are cooler than the Masters of the Universe, though. I don't know. I like Lionel better than Iats are cooler than the Masters of the Universe, though. Like, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:56:45 I like Lionel better than I like He-Man. Sure. Yeah, like, his hair was beautiful. Yeah, he had like a, yeah. They had the. Who was that? Who was the bald one? Pantera?
Starting point is 00:56:54 Pantera. They had Chitara. Yeah. And was it Chitara with an Unchucks? Or was that Pantera? Panthra. Not Pantera. Panthra.
Starting point is 00:57:03 Panthra. He was gray, remember? He was bald and he was gray. They just had Dimebag Daryl in therethra, not Pantera. Panthra. He was gray, remember? He was bald and he was gray. They just had Dimebag Daryl in there, like in the background. And then they had Schnarf as well. Schnarf running around just being worried about shit. Yeah. I just loved it.
Starting point is 00:57:19 I loved it. I guess I just liked that formula. Just a huge buff dude with a sword. That was good. Yeah. Tried and true. Yeah. Yeah, it works.
Starting point is 00:57:30 Yeah, I didn't, you know, until I was saying it out loud, I didn't realize that those are basically the same show. One's just with cats, but whatever. They're two different shows. So true to form. Got to pick those for my first two. Oh. Yeah, dude.
Starting point is 00:57:42 Oh. Hacksaw Jim Lionel out there just getting it done uh yeah thundercats dude great pick back to back kind of got the buff market cornered yeah story of my life i'm gonna go okay okay i'm gonna go buff turtles i'm going to go buff turtles. I'm taking Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Obviously. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:07 Classic. If we're staying in the we invented these to sell toys lane, I'm picking my personal MVP, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Yeah. Skateboards, dude. Pizza. Putting crazy stuff on pizza. Hanging out with a news reporter for some reason

Starting point is 00:59:01 wall like i think i put it on my wall like three years ago or something. It's dark. That's really, really funny. It was, you know, I should do it better. Which turtle were you? Michelangelo.
Starting point is 00:59:14 Was that deliberate? Did you put thought into that? Yeah, because he had the nunchucks. He was always my favorite because I was in Taekwondo my whole life. So the Ninja Turtles were like, they were going to be my third pick. And the nunchucks were the only weapon that I actually,
Starting point is 00:59:29 they teach you all the weapons. And the nunchucks were the ones that worked for me. And I could still, I'm still pretty nice with it. Was he the party dude? He was the party dude. Okay, Raphael. He's cool but rude. He's cool but rude.
Starting point is 00:59:41 Leonardo was the leader. Yeah. Donatello's the scientist. And like artsy and leader. Yeah. And then... Donatello's the scientist. In like artsy and smart. Yeah. Raph was the hothead. Wait, he was the dickhead, right? That's what we just said.
Starting point is 00:59:51 Raph was the bad boy. Cool, but rude. Yeah. Dickhead. Well, you know, I think that's your view. Yeah. We're learning a lot about you. Yeah, turtles, man.
Starting point is 01:00:04 Sounds like which one was telling on people. yeah i was fred i considered myself a rafael as a kid i liked him i like the color red yeah i i was also michael angelo if i had to pick one i think yeah i could see that my favorite nunchucks who have pizza okay okay okay okay love drawing staff right that was both staff donatello staff yep that was a cool one they also had some great enemies bebop and rocksteady you know they had like a warthog and rhino they fought there was the rat king the brain in the his suit was fucking crazy like he looked like he was made out of silly putty. He was like crazy. He had that weird 80s punk glasses.
Starting point is 01:00:50 Yeah, the Rat King. They had Yosagi Yojimbo, who was, I don't know if he was a friend or foe, but the rabbit, like the samurai rabbit. I think he kind of played the line. Yeah. Who was their friend? Casey Jones was their friend. Casey, who died, made you referee.
Starting point is 01:01:03 Yeah, the guy from Look Who's Talking. You know what's funny? In Elizabeth, the main park is Casey Jones Park. Named after him? I bet it's after the Ninja Turtles. Named after Casey Jones. There was a hockey rink and all that stuff. Did you ever see the show Street Sharks?
Starting point is 01:01:20 That was clearly a Ninja Turtles. It was a rip-off. It was Jawsome. It was Jawsome. And the whole thing was like, a Ninja Turtles. Oh, come on. It was a rip off. Oh, yeah. It was Jawsome. Yeah. It was Jawsome. Yeah. And the whole thing was like, we don't eat pizza. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:30 Yeah. Like some kid at home was like, finally. Yeah. Finally. That one holdout. I was that kid for a while that was like, I don't like pizza. Just trying to be contrarian when I was like six. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:42 I used to be that kid. We would never have been friends. You told on people you hated pizza? Okay. I took a hard turn when I was like six. Yeah, I used to be that kid. We would never have been friends. You told on people you hated pizza? Okay. I took a hard turn when I was sixth grade. Do you like pizza because of the inherent qualities or because there's so much pizza propaganda when we're children?
Starting point is 01:01:57 That's a great question. That's a great question. I think inherent qualities, because American, I think the rise of pizza propaganda was the rise of pizza killing it in America. Like when did Domino's start being like delivery pizza that's what's like it feels like that pushes like late 70s to 80s right that
Starting point is 01:02:14 seems like around the time like I think it's hand in hand also yeah it's just a bunch of cheese and meat but like but then like like? Yeah, but then, like, lasagna. Kids aren't like, yo, I love lasagna. I always love lasagna. I love lasagna, too. Deconstructed pizza. The fact that you can just pick up pizza and eat, you don't need any utensils. You don't need to be a dork with a fork.
Starting point is 01:02:36 You can pick up a calzone. A dork with a fork. Where are you getting calzones when you're six? Some of the same places you get pizza. Pizza's cheap. There was a lot of, like, mobility in food, like get pizza. Pizza's cheap. There was a lot of like mobility in food, like marketed to us as kids. Take this go-gurt anyway.
Starting point is 01:02:50 You know what I mean? You can do it on the bus. And the bus driver's like, quit fucking eating yogurt back there. Don't open that go-gurt on my bus. I'm picking up tubes for hours. Food they have, like the frosting,
Starting point is 01:03:04 like Dunkaroos, like frosting and cracker in the same thing. What were those spreadable cheese ones? What was that called that had like the cheese container and the cracker? Like a Lunchables? Not quite a Lunchables. It was like a little tub of cheese and then four club crackers. And they had like a red
Starting point is 01:03:20 I think it was Handy Snack. That's like a United Tapas box now. Yeah, exactly. That's the best case scenario for an airplane. About the bus real quick, I just have to say, when we were riding the bus in elementary school, we used to get our hands out the window and make snowballs from the roof and throw them at the driver.
Starting point is 01:03:35 Oh my God. This is pretty funny. Just imagine. School bus drivers. When you say we used to do that, do you mean other kids used to do that and you used to tell them which ones it was? No, I was still trying.
Starting point is 01:03:45 I was toeing the line. It was them. Bus driver. It was Aaron Goldstein. Bus driver. I remember Aaron Goldstein used to do it. Maybe I did know a Jewish kid when I was little. Maybe you did. Maybe I did. I thought Ian was the first Jewish kid I met.
Starting point is 01:04:03 Collaborator. What an ally. He god he makes me ninja turtles it's it's yeah it was a classic saturday morning cartoon david borre time for your second pick i'm taking this uh remember thorough memories it started out in south saturday afternoon it moved to after school later down the line though uh just the first only superhero i ever saw myself in or like i like this whole world he was very funny i'm taking darkwing duck oh yeah dude that song dude get dangerous darkwing was just his face flying around dude he was kind of inept though but very funny yeah he was basically like that
Starting point is 01:04:47 little girl actually solving all the crimes right like he had a good crew around him but they loved each other yeah man big dark queen duck yeah he was bogus he didn't have any he was like not good at his job but he was very funny he cared it was very funny yeah and i always thought he was black but i think there was just a lot of purple in that show. It was purple and black. That's why, because it was just a whole different color scheme. He could be black. I don't think that they had any race.
Starting point is 01:05:13 There was no canonical. Yeah. No, I don't think so. And then it was like all the favorites from the Duckverse, like Launchpad. Launchpad. You know what I mean? Launchpad and McQuack got around. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:23 They were doing crossover events like Raising the Libyan Station 19. Yeah. What does canonical mean? Like part of the official story. Yeah, like the canon. See? Gotta ask.
Starting point is 01:05:39 Otherwise you'll never know. Now I know that. Thank you. Like turtle is canonically Italian. Wait, we switched to they all had italian names yeah they did all have italian names yeah yeah they're Italian, sure. They are Italian, for sure. Some of our great Italians. I would... If I was Italian, I wouldn't... This is a complicated road we've started walking down. Oh, that's funny. Some of our greatest Italians, the Ninja Turtles.
Starting point is 01:06:20 Do you think they're claimed? I think at times. The Ninja Turtles? I've never known them to be claimed by anybody. I would love to go to a Columbus Day parade and see the Ninja Turtles on a float, though. They love pizza. They're named Donatello, Rafael.
Starting point is 01:06:37 You're like... Pizza was the only thing they loved. They never ate cannolis or any other Italian food. Yeah, that's true. If there was an Enoch turtle fighting people with a broken jameson bottle i'd claim it i'm in there shamus turtle that's a much different car splinter was japanese right yeah yeah yeah i assume did he talk with a vaguely japanese accent I think it was very, it was very, it's not great. It's not great. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:07 It hides, it hides. Ooh. It was the, it was the 1980s and they, uh, they let us know that every episode. Oh man.
Starting point is 01:07:19 Yeah, he was, oh damn, he was. But April O'Neil wore a jumpsuit, you know, they didn't have her in a dress. So,
Starting point is 01:07:24 you know, sisters were doing it for themselves It was progressive I don't even remember why Also she dated turtles Did she? In my memory she did But did we just manifest that? Raphael was in love with her
Starting point is 01:07:39 They kissed In the movie she kissed him on the forehead It wasn't like Howard the Duck Where they fully had sex They kissed. In the movie, she kissed him on the forehead or something. But they didn't. It wasn't like Howard the Duck where they fully had sex with an animal. The whole genre of upsetting porn. Yeah. It's because not only was he a turtle, he was also
Starting point is 01:07:56 a teen. He was like a grown woman. I was about to say, how do you know? 70% chance you're going to be in the wrong when someone's a teen. So let's just cool it, April. In like turtle years to human years. There you go. Oh, no, it's the other way.
Starting point is 01:08:13 Because turtles live until they're like 200 years old. So it's like, it's actually worse. It's actually much worse. April O'Neil belongs in prison. I never thought about that. Did they? Hold on. I got to Google they were be careful about this you know watch mina's googling something so this is what you're gonna do after the show we do okay anyway can you guys guess what i'm googling based
Starting point is 01:08:36 on our conversation did april o'neill and ninja no no no it's a it's a picked i just i wanted to see if their costumes cover their breasts. I think they have shells. Yeah, their shells are where their wings should be. The shells cover them, but not enough to the point where... Alright.
Starting point is 01:08:58 My questions are answered. Do turtles have regular sex? No, they don't. They sound like old men moving couches when they have sex I'll tell you that I've seen it first hand it's the funniest thing you will ever see if you get to watch turtles have sex it's the funniest thing you'll ever see I've talked about it a bunch I don't need
Starting point is 01:09:14 to rehash that but it's hilarious oh my god alright well it's time to find out what a dark winged duck whose genitals were covered it's time for Nina's second a dark wing duck, whose genitals were covered. It's time for Nina's second and third pick. No, I don't think they were. Pulling up my document.
Starting point is 01:09:29 No, yeah, because he only had the suit jacket up top and then the cape. Ducks don't have genitals. Wait, ducks don't have a penis. A duck doesn't have a penis. A duck has a corkscrew penis. Oh, it's a bad dick, yeah. Ducks have corkscrew penises.
Starting point is 01:09:45 Yeah, they got bad ones. I've seen those, yeah. Ducks have corkscrew penises. Yeah, they got bad ones. I've seen those, yeah. Yeah. Whoa. Google it. I don't. I Google fights, David. Oh, excuse me.
Starting point is 01:09:54 Google fist fights. But yeah, duck ring duck. That's my pick. Are they corkscrews to like lock it in? Yeah. Is it like opening a line? Is it like a cat dick where they have the little spurs locking in no i remember there's some if there's something right it's like the the female
Starting point is 01:10:09 has like i'm gonna look right now false angles so it's like oh like there's a woman of course no no no no no no no no it's something about that. I don't want to Google it again because the way it looks scares me a lot. This article in BBC Science Focus. No way. That looks like a proton. BBC Science? Oh, British broadcast. That looks like a proton beam shooting out.
Starting point is 01:10:38 The duck vagina is like a labyrinth. Okay, see, that's what I meant. I'm not crazy. The entrance has several blind pouches followed by a series of narrow spiral narrow narrow spirals so they have a labyrinthine vagina there's a lot of like weird false entrances yeah don't think i don't know about animal genitals, guys. I got my fucking MFA.
Starting point is 01:11:09 Kakunis with the movie Labyrinth? What's the word I just learned? I forgot how to say it. Meena, what are your second and third picks? All right. My second pick is a show that didn't start on Saturdays but migrated to Saturdays. Yeah. It's a show that was on multiple networks.
Starting point is 01:11:26 Character that I think reflected how a lot of us felt as children, which is to say deeply wracked by anxiety at all times, and that is Doug. Oh, yeah. Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do- harder to do over zoom yeah it doesn't work as good maybe the earliest portrayal of social anxiety as a kid you know i think so yeah it's have you when was the last time you watched it
Starting point is 01:11:59 been a minute yeah so i i went back and watched it during pandemic it's like uh it's okay but it's like you don't realize it until you get older it's the most because he's so i think probably because he is so anxious it's the most boring show nothing happens and really so much happens in my memory go back and watch just a couple on Nickelodeon. It's like so minimal. Like obviously the overarching like Patty Mayonnaise, Roger, all that stuff is kind of there. But like truly not a lot happens in that show. One of my earliest, not earliest, but one of my strongest memories of the show is the episode where they go on a date where Doug and Patty patty go on their first date but he doesn't know if it's a date so skeeter and his friends are like here are the signs did
Starting point is 01:12:50 she dress up when she shows up and she is you know in the same outfit but has like little earrings on and like it's a date and but then she does stuff that makes it not a date and for my whole life until i was an adult i literally obeyed those rules to like doug's rules of dating yeah like you know um there is this a date question is plagued i mean like i think everyone's gone through that it has to i got to the point where i had to be like i want to take you on a date and that just because you'd always say hang i'd always say hang out because i was scared to ask someone to go on a date because i'm like they they're going to say no, but someone will hang out for sure. And then you're like, I hang out with everybody.
Starting point is 01:13:31 We're all, I go to the mall and we're all hanging out. I don't know if this counts. I do think Doug maybe gave kids, young boys, unrealistic expectations because Patty was so out of his league. Oh yeah. That's what I'm saying yeah that's what i'm saying that's what i'm saying doug was a dud i thought i could be out here in cargo shorts just talking way cooler than him yeah she was like the prettiest girl she was the most athletic she was like kind of competitive in a cool way yeah very sweet really
Starting point is 01:14:01 doug didn't really do anything he had a rich internal life Very sweet. Doug didn't really do anything. He had a rich internal life. He did. Everybody knows that's the guys that get all the girls. Especially at the young age. What was he? Quail Man?
Starting point is 01:14:14 Quail Man, yeah. This is like fantasy. Roger Klotz. Yeah. Anti-Semitic? Possibly. Yeah, for sure. For sure.
Starting point is 01:14:31 Mr. Dink? Also black, also black maybe mr dink ruled his neighbor yeah judy judy sunglasses indoors iconic yeah very bohemian like pretty sure started smoking cigarettes right after that show and. Clothes, for sure. Even just when we didn't see her, it was like burning down club cigarettes writing poetry. Yeah, it's kind of like everybody was more interested on that show than Doug. Now, like, cool girls dress like Doug.
Starting point is 01:14:58 They wear, like, big shorts and, like, sweater vests and stuff. That's what fancy girls dress like. Their hair is just shaky lines coming out. Yeah. Doug, excellent pick. And your third pick. I'm going to go in a radically different direction.
Starting point is 01:15:15 Batman, the animated series. Oh, yeah. Fuck, I thought I gave it an X. That shit was dork. And the art was amazing. The art, the music, all of it. It looked so good. They had real actors.
Starting point is 01:15:29 Mark Hamill played the Joker on that show. Yeah. But I remember, in my mind, it was the darkest shit ever. It was Tarkovsky for kids. I mean, some of it was really sad. Yeah, people died. um you know there was mr freeze i remember the mr freeze one being really super dark there was a whole uh arc where batman got addicted to oxy and became a male really no jeez i was gonna like whatever their version of oxy was no but it was pretty fucking
Starting point is 01:16:06 dark it was really dark what was that was the music the same i don't remember the music was it like the movies like like the first one the timber yeah yeah it's always had good music all the bad guys like it was like stylized of like the 50s right like that's the way everything kind of looked it kind of solidified that Gotham. Yeah, like that dark Gotham. It was a little more, it was a little less, it felt a little less whimsical than the Tim Burton movies. Yes, but it was kind of inspired by that.
Starting point is 01:16:37 By that look, yeah. The character of Harley Quinn is from the cartoon. Like they invented it for the cartoon as like Joker's assistant and then it became its old thing. Interesting. Harley Quinn is from the cartoon. Like they invented it for the cartoon is like your assistant. And then it became its old thing. Yeah. Still some of the best Batman that's ever been done. Like I see like the real,
Starting point is 01:16:57 like the real comic book heads talk about it. And they're like, this is like number one. And then, and then like the Heath Ledger movie. It's crazy how much Batman there is in the universe. Like there's so, there's so much Batman. There's probably the most Ledger movie. It's crazy how much Batman there is in the universe. There's so much Batman. There's probably the most Batman out of all those superhero, most movies, the most
Starting point is 01:17:12 cartoons, the most TV shows. A lot of Spider-Man. I don't know. There's a lot of Spider-Man. There is a lot of Spider-Man. Can I say this as someone who likes Spider-Man? There's so much Spider-Man content I think is not that great. I don't even think the movie started getting good until recently.
Starting point is 01:17:28 Yeah. I hated the Tobey Maguire ones. I gotta admit, I liked the Tobey Maguire ones. I liked the first one a lot. I couldn't stand them. I didn't like the third one. But yeah, Batman the Animated Series was great. It was the dude that Kevin Conroy, who Batman, I think she just died this year.
Starting point is 01:17:45 Oh really? Yeah. Or last year, but he had, he had that iconic Batman voice. Um, yeah, I just,
Starting point is 01:17:55 I remember being pretty young and it being like, it felt dangerous. Yeah. It's like, yeah, like you're a grown up. Yeah. Like it wasn't for kids.
Starting point is 01:18:02 Yeah. He's like, let me watch this. They don't even know. Davidoren it's time for your third pick I'm taking just a classic shoot em up little kids show I gotta take G.I. Joe oh yeah it's still on it was the
Starting point is 01:18:17 basis we all had all of the toys fuck the cobras yeah just really standard I had a truck that was really fun a gi joe truck i had one too i had one that like the sides opened up and you could get little dudes in there i just i did gi joe with a snowboard my gi joe i remember my gi joe truck had these missiles that like you pressed the button and it was like and it shot them all out very just simple not much going on but you don't need much going on with
Starting point is 01:18:47 gi joe you know what i mean yeah just very basic but everybody knew about it i they had this orange and blue dude that was like a snowboarder is that what did you say that he had a shield yeah he was my favorite i just like the orange and blue whatever network i was watching gi joe on when i because it was like i think the orange and blue. Whatever network I was watching G.I. Joe on, because I think it was on USA or whatever, when I was watching it in Portland growing up. There were a bunch of them, though. They did.
Starting point is 01:19:11 They showed it out of order when I was watching it. And it was supposed to be serialized, but they just threw it against, like, we'll throw this episode on today. So it just bounced all over the place, and you're like, what the hell is going on in any of this? Yeah. And there's different iterations. Like, one era of them, I swear, looked what the what the hell is going on in any of this yeah and there's like different iterations like one era of them i swear looked like the village people yeah like
Starting point is 01:19:31 where it was like they had like a guy with the sailor cap and then like a guy with like no sleeves and like a motorcycle shirt for sure like a native american guy yeah do you remember that they did they did indeed it was like very good but it was yeah it was fun to watch i only vaguely remember because this is again a brother thing but did they i know it's like you know it's military did they give the enemies nationalities no i think that they were definitely not white it was it was like a cobra oh cobra yeah clint wasn't be like so today we're gonna go to russia it was they were gonna go to like wherever cobra was cobra commander kind of it had nazi vibes it felt like dictatory dictatory yeah yeah because you could still do that i mean when i was a kid i thought all bad guys were russians yeah just because i mean like you know i also was a big rocky for it was there was an australian guy i remember
Starting point is 01:20:26 sterling who's a good guy bad guy wow and there and they were good guys there was the baroness yeah who was like a european like again like kind of a nazi yeah they were just like kind of european bad people like bond villains yeah vaguely european villains yeah uh and then the good guys were like like a mix of stuff too right they were like all sorts of all kinds of stuff yeah yeah it was like i just had all kinds of weird skills pretty sure they had some birds destro so destro had a fortress in scotland so they were everywhere in scotland yeah he had a building in new york city the cobra consulate that feels like they should have shut that down quick
Starting point is 01:21:14 consulate i just like them handling stuff it's just thinking about like handling world affairs thinking about what handling world affairs. Thinking about what are we going to do after the war? Like they had cultural attaches too. Like they had people going to museums and stuff like that. Sharing the like the art and culture of the Cobra people. Didn't Cobra have like those gigantic banners in the back? Was it a country?
Starting point is 01:21:38 Like Nazi-ish. Like where they had the huge red banners going from like a 80 foot ceiling all the way to the ground. Didn't Cobra have something like that? They must have. It's not a country-foot ceiling all the way to the ground. Didn't Cobra have something like that? They must have. It's not a country. It's an organization. This is confusing. It's an acronym, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:21:57 He's an agent from a race of reptilian serpent people known as the Cobra Law. Oh, no. Come on. This is getting, what? Oh, no. A lot of tropes just came out there yeah they did okay now we know who the villains are you guys stop it
Starting point is 01:22:14 I didn't know guys I didn't know it was a kid I just like to play with the tropes it's funny. They like all the like problematic YouTube shit. Now you could probably just trace back to. Just some writer who's like, he watched a little too much.
Starting point is 01:22:37 Looking at his pet snake. Like, I don't know. Maybe it's a snake. That's funny. I love the GI Joe's. I love the toys. I love the videos that dj doug pound made later i loved all of it pork chop sandwiches uh gi joe excellent pick time for my
Starting point is 01:22:54 third pick with my third pick oh man i'm gonna so i gotta stay in the toy world i think i gotta take transformers god yeah damn it that was to be the next one. Many different generations of shows too. Many. Yeah. All the way up to Beast Wars. All the way up to Beast Wars. Beast Wars was so good. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:12 Beast Wars was so good. Oh my God. It was really, really good. Beast Wars was on in the morning. Was that after school? Or after I was in the morning? I thought it was in the morning before school. I had a morning one.
Starting point is 01:23:20 It probably aired at different places, different times. But like it was, if my bus came at 730, it aired at seven. So it was always like this, like when it would, I would have to always leave at like the last commercial break and like run up the cul-de-sac to catch the bus because the timing was never right. I don't remember Beast Wars. Am I too old? You might have been a Beast Wars fan.
Starting point is 01:23:39 That might be a little bit, yeah. What's Beast Wars? Oh, really? Were they like animal transformers? Yeah. Yes. But they were on their own planet. It was awesome. Animal robots on their own planet?
Starting point is 01:23:50 Yeah. I mean, when you say it like that, it's not as cool as Snitch. I don't remember the specifics. More the energy. It was like early computer graphic design, too. I am not a Snitch. But there was like a gorilla dude.
Starting point is 01:24:08 There was the gorilla guy there was um a cheetah the cheetah guy yeah that sounds sick i yeah i missed it i mean transformer is amazing i just missed that being too old yeah it was pretty good though yeah that sounds like the dinosaur the dino bots i love them i love yeah um but they were great and the transformers movie which is not part of this pick is like fantastic but these were another ones where like my older brother got into them first and then i got kind of all the hand-me-down toys and stuff like that so it was it was perfect it's because it's the kind of thing where you don't have to start your collection you inherit yeah like and those toys were like top tier kids toys if we're talking about like coveted children's toys that shit was like i took max to like a play area the other day and they had
Starting point is 01:24:51 bumblebee but it didn't transform it was just an a transformed bumblebee doll and it was just a chimaera it was just a chimaera like what what was the girl's name oh he was the main guy yeah it wasn't it was sort of it was an optimist prime obviously no but that's like the role he played uh he was like the optimal optimist something similar oh maybe maybe because my brother also he had him a toy of him and he did not integrate well into the barbie cinematic universe but i definitely remember that toy he was optimus primal was his name optimus primal yeah yeah yeah that was cool wow yeah i bet you the name came first i bet you the name was the first thing and they're like different animals.
Starting point is 01:25:45 This is my dream job. It's so fun. Let's all transition to the Hasbro company after this. They have my sword. We've done enough in entertainment. Get out of here. Let's get out of the game. Great show.
Starting point is 01:26:02 Sean, time for your third and then your fourth picks, friend so my third pick uh i'm gonna go this is one that i loved maybe not the most popular but we i feel like we kind of for my money we got all the most popular ones uh i'm picking heathcliff you guys ever watch heathcliff oh really i loved it i liked it i liked it a lot heathcliff uh he was like a cooler garfield somebody else somebody else somebody else would pop in i just like heathcliff because he was yeah just like a bat he was just like a bad guy getting into getting into all kinds of he wasn't like doing great stuff he was just it's french it's originally a french show really yeah he's a french character i think yeah wasn't he always
Starting point is 01:26:51 eating fish that's what i remember it was super fun yeah he would do the he would eat fish like kings eat a turkey leg or whatever he would just like strip it to the bone and the intro was him like he lived in a junkyard on top of the heap and like the trunk of a car or like the backseat of a like an old Corvette or something like one of those big body cars. It's like a real bachelor. When you Google image Heathcliff, the first picture that comes up, this is probably from the comics, is him wheeling a bunch of dogs to the dog catcher. Yeah. Oh! I'm sensing a thing.
Starting point is 01:27:23 Don't shoot. Now, let's not go down. That feels a little like don't you. Now, now, let's not go down. That feels a little like a tattletale, baby. Let's not go down the snitch road. Snitch city, dude. Another one. I'm gonna have to lean in. He was just like, I just like the stuff that he did, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:27:38 He just respected authority. Rounding up. For my fourth pick, I'm gonna have to pick, hey, did you see that, teacher? Did you guys ever see that cartoon? Hey, teacher, tell them to stop. Oh, no. No, I mean, I'm kidding. I remember watching Heathcliff, though.
Starting point is 01:27:53 I just loved it. I think those were short, too. I think those were 15 minutes because I think the other half was the aforementioned other cartoon that maybe sometimes came into Heathcliff's world. And they didn't like each other, if I remember right.
Starting point is 01:28:05 I don't think they got along. Every now and again, they would like mix worlds. Are you talking about another cat? Yeah. There was a rivalry? Yeah, it was Garfield. Yeah, Garfield would come in sometimes. He would?
Starting point is 01:28:17 Yeah. Out of Heathcliff? Oh, I didn't even know that. Are you sure? Are you sure? I'm pretty sure. I don't know. I don't think they did. Maybe I'm wrong. Well, I didn't even know that. Are you sure? Are you sure? I'm pretty sure. I don't know. I don't think they did.
Starting point is 01:28:25 Maybe I'm wrong. Well, I'm almost positive that they were in the same world. I'd love to see it. That they knew each other. Listeners, if anybody remembers, let us know. Or if anybody can find it on Google. Ian, as soon as this is over, when you start Googling stuff, throw that on the list, you know?
Starting point is 01:28:44 But I'm pretty sure they did. That's what my mom says when she just doesn't believe me but is done talking about it. No, it's like this is murky territory because we're talking about it and as we're describing these shows, I'm sure half of the shit we're saying
Starting point is 01:29:01 is just made up. Yeah, for sure. I'm like, yeah, this happened to me. It's a child's memory. I couldn't Google search some of this stuff because it was so far back that there's just not too much of a documented history of it. What if I made up that whole line about the convertible?
Starting point is 01:29:20 Then you fucking should be writing the next mention. Yeah, you should be writing cartoons. I don't think that uh the aforementioned the cat ever entered the world of heathcliff i think the aforementioned cat did enter the world of heathcliff so we heard a crossroads production companies i think that maybe i could be thinking of another cat i just know he didn't i. I don't think I did, bro. Film Roman versus... Were there any other cats that would have...
Starting point is 01:29:56 He had his little crew. He could have a gang of friends. He had his little crew, but I thought there was a good cat that came into their world sometimes. I could be wrong. i you are wrong i think you can be and are wrong but what you're gonna be right about is your next pick right on time next pick mask you guys remember mask oh i do remember mask i remember the son of the mask huh oh wait the jim carrey cartoon no it was uh all these it was
Starting point is 01:30:26 like car it was like a knight rider cartoon kind of like oh so mask it was it stood for something it was an acronym it was like these people that just they fought crime with another french cartoon really yeah i'm a little i'm a little french snitch huh that's what we're finding out yeah that's right you you said it. Mobile Armored Strike Command. I never saw, I never seen this. Oh, I love it. And the main thing that I loved was the opening credit song.
Starting point is 01:30:53 It was, it got me every single time. It was secret raiders who will neutralize all of the time. It was so catchy. I loved it. Telling on your friends. It looked like it'd be in French. It just on your friends. It looked like a B in French. It just got me going. It looked like a video game.
Starting point is 01:31:09 They were just tearing ass down the road right at the TV. I loved it to pieces. I had a lot of the toys, which were just the cars. I enjoyed it. I didn't look too hard, but I couldn't really find any shows. I wanted to watch one just because I think they were whatever. I could watch five minutes and got the vibe, but I couldn't really find any shows. I wanted to watch one just because I think they were whatever.
Starting point is 01:31:25 I could watch five minutes and got the vibe, but I couldn't really find much. There also was a Jim Carrey mask animated show. There was. Yeah. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:31:37 Mask. I only remember the toys. I never saw the cartoon itself. God, I loved it. It was like filling that know, filling that transformer void that I was going to pick. That's kind of where Masked... There's another one too
Starting point is 01:31:50 that I could have picked, but I didn't, you know. I like this better than that other one. So, yeah, Masked. Oh, there's the intro right there. It's so good. Fantastic.
Starting point is 01:32:00 They even have like an Optimus Prime. I'm looking at it. It looks like Optimus Prime right there. Snakes. Anyway, Masked. I think looking at it. It looks like Optimus Prime right there. Snakes. Anyway, mask. I think it's time for my fourth pick. And I'm going to take a show that we need more now than ever, I think.
Starting point is 01:32:17 A show that honors the Earth, Mother Earth Gaia, if you will, to give us all life. A show that incorporates Earth, fire, wind, water. Oh, man, come on. And just a little bit of heart. I'm taking Captain Planet. Yeah, he's a hero. Yeah. Bring pollution down to zero.
Starting point is 01:32:36 I think I remember the entire theme song as you were saying it. Captain Planet. He's a hero. Gonna take pollution down to a zero he's got powers magnified and he's fighting on the planet side you can be one too because saving the planet is the thing to do looting and polluting is not the way here's what Captain Planet has to say. The power is yours. Holy fuck.
Starting point is 01:33:10 I think that was the whole song, right? That was the whole thing. When your powers combine, and then it's like, Earth, wind, water, and then I am Captain Planet. Yeah, there was that weird heart guy that we didn't really know. He was a peruvian kid with a heart ring dude he's rad but i never knew what the heart ring did like water earth yeah fire was a bad guy it was right you were always like what i don't i don't understand the
Starting point is 01:33:35 ineffable quality that separates uh humanity from the other animals living on the on the planet you know captain planet was basically just David Bowie, right? Yeah, he looked a little bit like David Bowie. He did. He looked... And they were only bringing him in at the end. You know, they would try on their own and fuck up and be like,
Starting point is 01:33:53 all right, all right, get the fuck out of the planet. He looks exactly like David Bowie. I'm looking at his hair right now. It's crazy. Because he didn't like... Where did he live? In the rings?
Starting point is 01:34:03 They summoned him, right? They summoned him, yeah. They put their powers together. He lived in the rings they summoned him right summon him you know they put their powers together in the rings well it was their powers combining coming together so he was like a chemical reaction that was like a neighborhood in paris the rings the rings he's from the rings the bad guys in that show were oh incredible that pig face? Who was that guy? Hold on. The villain names are really worth saying because they're insane. Hoggish Greedly.
Starting point is 01:34:33 Hoggish Greedly. That's his name. Yeah. Hoggish Greedly. Where's he from? Verminous Scum. Voiced by Jeff Goldblum? Whoa.
Starting point is 01:34:44 Duke Nukem. Duke Nukem was a video... I'mkem. Duke Nukem was a video. I'm yelling. Duke Nukem was a video game. Yeah, they had a Duke Nukem. Loot and Plunder. Amazing.
Starting point is 01:34:53 Zarm. Zarm. Voiced by Malcolm McDowell. Who the, Meg Ryan? Who the heck are all these angels? Wow. Big talent.
Starting point is 01:35:03 They had a Deplista Scum. Don Porkaloin. Don Porkaloin? Don Porkaloin? These names are insane. Wow. You can just make up ones. He's Hoggish Greedly's grandfather, Don Porkaloin. Are you serious?
Starting point is 01:35:21 Yeah. This show dealt with serious issues. Like animal testing was one I remember. Yeah, I remember that. Was this more of an early 90s? I didn't see it. I didn't see it too much. Early 90s, yeah.
Starting point is 01:35:37 I think so. Yeah, I missed the Captain Planet part. And the good news is the show works. We all care about the environment now, and things got 100% better since then. We fixed it. Good job, Captain. He turned it around.
Starting point is 01:35:49 There's a dude named Tank Flusher III, and he's a bad guy. Propaganda. Tank Flusher. Wow. That's because you should let it mellow if you pee. Yeah, if it's yellow, let it mellow. Yeah, if this guy's flushing after every pee.
Starting point is 01:36:02 Captain Planet, though. Yeah, that's my fourth pick. David, time for your fourth pick. I think I got to take my fourth one. Another one that started on Saturday morning and left to after school in the same universe as Darkwing Duck. I'm taking Goof Troop. Oh, yeah. Goof Troop.
Starting point is 01:36:22 Best of friends forever. Remember that? Yes. It was so fun. Jazzy. Now we're calling everyone. Come along and join the fun. You know, we're the Goof Troop.
Starting point is 01:36:32 Let's give it a bop, bop, a do bop. Yeah. Wow. Brought me back. Yeah, I loved it. I love Max. I love Pete, his best friend. I love Pete, his dad, the bad guy.
Starting point is 01:36:43 I love Goofy was always just trying to be a good single father i i loved goof troop so i love pete's wife peg she was really funny like it's just what a great world and then obviously went on to a goofy movie of which i can't shut the fuck up about on this podcast i love that movie but yeah it's the whole goofy universe had to pick it love it big max goof fan this one just slides in on the saturday morning thing too because it was a it was a friday afternoon block and then they moved it to saturday mornings for 13 episodes see there's the count 13 episodes back in the original where it's like you probably thought it was
Starting point is 01:37:19 much longer than that it was on for seven years. It was on. There was 78 total episodes spread between two seasons. That's what these shows were like back then. Man, those old story orders. We got a season. Can you imagine being in that writer's room? Like, 40 fucking episodes a season? What's supposed to happen? What else can they do?
Starting point is 01:37:41 I kind of think we should go back to that because it would make people come up with come up with the most insane ideas possible sure yeah they jumped the shark way quick way quick that shark got jumped in the third episode they were jumping dolphins whales you know what i mean they jumped like a trained circus bear i do like that uh mina it is time for your fourth and then your final picks okay i was actually just googling to see if a show that I thought maybe was on Saturday was on Saturday, but I don't think it was. So I'm going to pivot and go with a show that was definitely on Saturday mornings at one point, and that was Regrets. Oh, yeah. Oh, God. Oh, come on. Classic.
Starting point is 01:38:17 Kind of like Recess, right? In that it was like about kids having their own society of sorts and rules and all of this and hierarchies in a small world in this case babies at daycare um which is weird that like kids because i feel like when you're a kid all you want to do is be an adult but we yeah i don't know why we i enjoyed a show about babies it was a good show they didn't feel like babies per se in that way though you know what i mean like they were very like they were mobile they were like yeah what tommy would like get a screwdriver out and open their playpen and just put the screwdriver down but you're right but there was this like no that's stupid that's for babies that like that was the thing you know they like kids say and then yet here we longing for the innocence of youth.
Starting point is 01:39:06 I put it on there. Dude, it's such a good show. A weird thing about that show is like pre-Aeon Flux where they would, I remember like when the grandpa would like take a bite of mashed potatoes or something and they would just show the mashed potatoes, like him chewing. You remember that? They do weird stuff on that show. They would. Oh, the animation was really wonky.
Starting point is 01:39:24 Yeah. It was really fun. And it was really fun and it was shot like from the shot it was drawn from the ground up a lot so you were like looking up at these grown-ups which was yes i loved that yeah proud jewish representation yeah chuck was it chuck chucky finkels yeah is that what even tommy pickles if he wants to say he's not jewish sorry dude tommy pickles could be an enforcer in the mob when he grows up to tommy pickles if he wants to say he's not Jewish, his name's Tommy Pickles, bro. Sorry, dude. Tommy Pickles could be an enforcer in the mob when he grows up, too. Tommy Pickles. Okay, I have one more
Starting point is 01:39:52 pick, right? That's right. Okay, I'm gonna ... Oh, it's a show that, as I'm saying this, I barely remember anything that happened on this show that's all right animaniacs oh yeah what was animaniacs about i watched probably there was a lot of
Starting point is 01:40:13 shit going on dozens and dozens of episodes i remember the song i remember the characters but i don't i could not tell you a single thing there's anything yeah there was baloney in their slacks yeah It's funny. I just watched the song last night because I was saying, Boat, I'm like, I know I watched this show and the song was very important to Saturday morning cartoons. Come join the Warner Brothers and their Warner sister, Dot. Just for fun, they run around the Warner movie lot. They lock us in the tower whenever we get caught.
Starting point is 01:40:41 But we break loose and then vamoose and now you know the plot. Yeah, dude. It's so so good i love that show can anyone remember a single thing that actually happened on the show i remember the hot nurse they'd be like hello nurse yeah that was like a big it was just like a they just got into like it was a fever dream they bopped around like the warner brothers if i remember right it was like chaos and it was so it wasn't like each episode wasn't like one arc they were like little silly shorts that would happen like each one of them it was almost like a throwback to like old disney type cartoons yeah it's just like these characters get into hijinks but nothing really matters there's no stakes there's no like continuity i remember watching there was like a they did like a uh apocalypse now parody in one episode like yeah they would do they would do like a lot of movie parodies
Starting point is 01:41:36 and pastiches and stuff like that it was it was so good because they were on the warner brothers love yeah they love movies steven sp Spielberg was the executive producer of it. And they would make fun of him sometimes. I bet you if you went back and watched it now, you'd be like, whoa, this is actually way better than I thought. It seems like it could have had an adult bent to it that we didn't know. When I was putting together my list for this, I ended up reading the Wikipedia page for Recess. And there's a whole section on how it had themes about the cold war and i was like what and then i read it and it's like very explicit like geopolitical like uh motifs in the show like having to be ready for like to if the bomb drops they literally like talk about it in the show
Starting point is 01:42:22 it's not even like thematic. And I was thinking like, man, I got to set a certain point. If you make a kid's show, you like, maybe if you're a certain kind of person, want to start putting in adult themes and lessons that kids don't pick up on. I don't know. Yeah, it starts creeping in. I mean, who's it for then? Us. Us.
Starting point is 01:42:42 For us to talk about now. All right. All right. That's fair. All right. All right. That's fair. All right. I'm done. Yeah. I love,
Starting point is 01:42:49 I love that. I love that show. That was one of my favorites. This episode of all fantasy. Everything is brought to you by policy genius, policy genius. I'm going to hit you. We're going to talk about some life insurance stuff real quick.
Starting point is 01:43:01 Now, 40% of people with life insurance wish they'd gotten their policy at a younger age. Of course you do. I wish I'd done everything at a younger age. That's neither here nor there. Policy Genius, essentially, it just helps you get the life insurance you need fast so you can get on with your life. With Policy Genius, you can find life insurance policies that start at just $292 per year for $1 million of coverage. Some options offer same-day approval and avoid unnecessary medical exams. So I have life insurance. It had nothing to do with me. It's my wife did everything, but it's tough. It's a hassle to go through and get.
Starting point is 01:43:39 You have to research it, which I don't like researching anything. If I buy something, I just go into the person that works at the store and say, what is right in the middle? What's not the best? What's not the worst? And that is how I do it. With life insurance, obviously, you want to be a little bit more careful about that. But how do I know where to start? You know what I mean? I have no idea what to do, where to look. Nobody does. And that's what Policy Genius does. They just go in, they find and compare all the best quotes for you. They just go to all the nation's top insurers, and then they give you your best options. They're just a few clicks, and then you're going to find your lowest price. And their

Friggin' David's final pick. I think, how am I going to end it? I think, oh, I just have to take this because of like, just pure 90s cartoon fuckery. Just, how did they get this made? It was so silly, but so fun.
Starting point is 01:45:42 Also, not a lot of it, but I think I thought there was a lot of it. I'm taking Tone Loke starring in the hit cartoon, Seabear and Geronimo. Oh, yeah. How many were there? The funky cartoon that'll have you dancing in the eye. Yeah, dude. And the whole show, if you watch it, it doesn't make a ton of sense. And it's just the bear doing bad stuff
Starting point is 01:46:05 and they could be like see bear no my dad's coming home and see bear is like i'm a crip i don't know what network was that on i think it was on fox i'm pretty sure it was a fox show yeah fox kids but there was like a bunch of shows that were specifically marketed towards black kids and that was like kind of the king of that. Season one was three episodes. Really? Yeah. They had a kid who was like all about getting money.
Starting point is 01:46:31 Or no, maybe that's a different one. But yeah, CB Aaron Jamal was just very funny. Watched it a lot. I love CB Aaron Jamal. Even the song was so funny. It was just kids yelling see bear and your mom yeah tone loc is like made to voice a character oh tone loc is amazing yeah it's the smooth ass teddy bear yeah that's we all want him to be our uncle
Starting point is 01:46:56 excellent pick time for my final pick okay yeah it's a weird yeah you can get whatever you want I gotta go I gotta go straight from the heart I'm gonna take Bobby's World oh I watched Bobby's World Bobby's World was great Howie Mandel
Starting point is 01:47:18 killing it Howie would be on there right like in the beginning it would be like Howie talking to cartoon Bobby. Is that right? No, I think so. Yeah. Or it's the thing we're dreaming now. No, Bobby would reference him.
Starting point is 01:47:34 He'd be like, hey, Howie, how's it going? Because the show was about Howie as a kid. I think you're right. I didn't know that. That's pretty cool. Yeah. So Howie would talk to Bobby in the beginning. And then they'd go, but yeah, come on, that was a great show.
Starting point is 01:47:47 Yeah, it was fantastic. It was just like the mom I remember being very funny. I didn't know that was a real accent as a kid. For crying, you know, she was a real Minnesota accent kind of. Yeah, I just thought she talked crazy. I didn't know that that came from anywhere. I couldn't tell you anything that happened in it again, but I remember I watched a lot of it. Yeah, like a big
Starting point is 01:48:07 imagination. That was the thing. I guess that's literally every kid's show. I remember that song, Fish Don't Stink. Underwater the fish don't stink. Why does that sound so familiar? Bobby's World. What was going on?
Starting point is 01:48:23 What was the point of that? I don't remember. Damn it. They didn't go that far. It was a hit, though. Yeah, it was a banger. Fucking hit. Sean Jordan, time for your final pick.
Starting point is 01:48:35 Muppet Babies. Muppet Babies. Yeah, that was a great show. Not again. Not a huge where I remember the plots of all the episodes but i watched it every single every single saturday i just watched i mean it was just fun to see i remember really like me too what a fun idea what if these muppets were babies and they were just way gnarlier baby versions of themselves great idea catching songs getting into trouble at the the nursery too getting so much trouble
Starting point is 01:49:05 I feel like that's a through line a lot of trouble these cartoons are getting into down in river city Muppet Babies yeah man
Starting point is 01:49:13 the one Muppet Baby who told on the other Muppet Babies yeah Snitch Muppet Babies Snitchy Snitchy the Muppet Snitchy the Snitch
Starting point is 01:49:22 I watched that show and I'm like I guess they were all just the Muppets but younger so they had Snitch? I watched that show and I'm like, I guess they were all just the Muppets, but younger, so they had the same name. So it was Elmo and Bert and Ernie. Excellent final pick. Marissa, do you have a pick? Yeah, I can't believe this wasn't taken,
Starting point is 01:49:37 but I guess it's from a different generation. I'm taking SpongeBob SquarePants. I knew you were going to say that. Was that Saturday morning? This is generational. In Canada it was. There you go. I was just talking to somebody.
Starting point is 01:49:48 That's so generational where it's like, that's like, it's like the line. Like you either got it or you didn't. Because the people who grew up with it love it. I can give a shit less. But like my little brother's like that, where it's like, it's like a pivotal show in his life. It's canonical.
Starting point is 01:50:04 That was canonical. There it canonical. That was canonical. There it is. That was Saturday morning Nickelodeon, I think. For a long ass time. I think it was like when Nickelodeon started Saturday morning cartoons. That was like part of their block. I've never seen a single episode of SpongeBob. Me neither.
Starting point is 01:50:17 But I use the GIFs all the time. I'm like, ooh, it's disappointed star guy. SpongeBob looking through a grate. But I don't know. So maybe I'm using them in the wrong context and I have no idea. Maybe we should do a Spongebob deep dive. We'll do a Spongebob watch-along podcast. Just watch one episode for the first time.
Starting point is 01:50:40 And people are going to be so mad. I kind of find it irritating. Yeah, I mean, I've never seen it I'd watch it with my little brother he liked the movie a lot so he'd watch the movie sometimes but too much of it I get very like Spongebob Squarepants
Starting point is 01:50:56 yeah I wish I had it but well to recap here's what we did have Mina you went first you took X-Men the animated series Doug, Batman the animated series. Doug, Batman, the animated series. Rugrats and the Animaniacs. David, you went second. You took Recess, Darkwing Duck, G.I. Joe, Goof Troop, and Seabairn Jamal.

You took He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, Thundercats, Heathcliff, Mask, and Muppet Babies. We left some picks on the board. Snorks, Smurfs.
Starting point is 01:51:36 Where are the Snorks? Tiny Toot Adventures. Did you guys ever watch that? Oh, yeah. The Tick. Oh, The Tick was so good. I had Pepper Ann on here jackie chan had a good uh animated show jackie chan adventures jackie chan adventures was good that was on the wb that was a good show but just because of the song again i don't remember any of the gummy bears but the song ruled but i remember the show though yeah it was a fun show and also like rainbow
Starting point is 01:52:03 bright and strawberry Shortcake, but I just don't remember anything about them. But they were fun. I had those dolls. The one I was looking at to see if it was on Saturdays was Hey Arnold, but I couldn't find any evidence that it ever was on Saturday. That was, like, a very canonical show.
Starting point is 01:52:19 That show's, like, good now, too. That was my... If you just watch it, it's, like, a pretty nice show. I liked Recess, but Hey Arnold was more my reset.
