Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey everyone, what you're about to listen to is a preview of a bonus episode that is available on our Patreon. If you like this clip, you can grab the whole episode, as well as years of other bonus content, at www.patre has been beaten to death by Portuguese clowns. Oh god. I think this is the most I've used the soundboard in months. Sometimes I forget we even have it. It's because I'm not in control of it anymore. It has been taken away. I hit the homies drop one too many times.
Starting point is 00:00:46 Yeah. What, one of these drops? ["Homies, Homies, Look About What You're Talking About"] No, the other one. The other one that's explicitly about homies. Anyway, through the next three episodes, we get this alliance, and I don't even know if that's the correct term using
Starting point is 00:01:05 it because most of them are reanimated corpses full of DG cells, led by Evil McSunglass as the Prime Minister of Space. I believe he's a Prime Minister because that's important when he's clearly a dictator. And Master Asia, and also who's in charge between them is pretty hazy it's also been established that master Asia's first name is just master Asia so calling him master Asia is it a form of respect it's like Prince or Madonna yeah it's it's like the guy who the doctor who was contracted out to work on President Garfield after he was shot was first named just Doctor. He's Doctor Doctor. So we got this really stupid alliance and they're throwing fucking.
Starting point is 00:01:52 I'm very confused by all of this because we get Giuseppe Spaghetti, who's been reanimated with DG cells, who has again, been a joke, who's murdered an episode like two or three or whatever, who now. Episode one. Episode one. Episode one episode in domo murdered him again despite that being explicitly against the rules and now he can throw hadoukens with his feet and beat domo kind of in hand-to-hand combat he's magical and shit because this is Dragon Ball Gundam
Starting point is 00:02:19 and there's a series attacks and domo and his allies including someone shoving a child in front of a bus and a bomb attack, none of which really seems to bother anyone outside the Shuffle Alliance, despite what had to be countless civilian casualties. And Spaghetti's whole thing is revenge for, again, being murdered 30 episodes ago. I mean, revenge is a dish best served way too late. It's a dish best served spoiled, I suppose. And he also explicitly says he would do anything to get revenge, including quote, becoming pure evil, which is interesting because if you remember from so many episodes ago, he
Starting point is 00:03:01 was introduced to us as a murderous mafia boss. I don't know, it gets much more evil than that. from so many episodes ago. He was introduced to us as a murderous mafia boss. I don't know, it gets much more evil than that. I guess being infested by the DG cells does that. It makes you inherently evil. It's like owning a Tesla. Or being German Chancellor or head commissioner of the EU. Or being German.
Starting point is 00:03:18 Or, yeah. Or it's La Vonderlein, no one's called Vaughn anymore, there's no hereditary titles. Can't trust her. Not because she's, I thought she was actually Dutch this whole time. She's German? I don't know, I can't trust her because she hangs out
Starting point is 00:03:33 with Ilham Aliyev way too much for my liking. Personal policy of mine. Also, Alanby pops back up again while we're in this, who is just, it's dawned on me. We compared her to Sailor Moon. She's not Sailor Moon. Her Gundam is Sailor Moon, but her personally is just woman Domo. Same vibes, same attitude, everything.
Starting point is 00:03:57 They looked at Domo and said, we need someone in here who can match his freak. And they were like, what if it was a woman? Yeah, Re is shook. And she shows up because she's going to be the one that teach Domo on how to defeat Giuseppe spaghetti, the reanimated version. And he tells him you need to wait for an opening in his attack before you attack, which is an awful lot. Like if you went to a Mike Tyson fight and told him, have you considered
Starting point is 00:04:24 punching? No. No shit. Yeah, seems like a real basic thing. Wow, I never thought of that. If you've never thought of that you should lose your job. Though we have established that the Gundams are all personally owned and built by the people who pilot them. They're not state owned.
Starting point is 00:04:40 This is all like, I don't know, Anne Rand's Gundam verse. Or like it's like Uber. It's like driving through the whole independent contractors. And that's exactly what happens. He's fighting spaghetti, hits him with the finger, it's over. Which is once again, she already done that. Yeah, Giuseppe got fingered. Yeah, it's the sped up, sped off of Freddy got fingered
Starting point is 00:05:01 that nobody ever asked for. Except for Francis Horton. Yeah you Coming for you Francis Yeah, I love Francis for one simple thing. He has a worse taste in movies than I do which is hard My taste in movies is shit I will I can't I played a long con for like six years on this show telling everyone that I liked Chappy and that wasn't the hard part the hard part was having such a bad taste in films that
Starting point is 00:05:28 everybody believed me I mean look if you say to people enough times that you like eating shit they'll probably believe that you when you say you like drinking piss as well I mean the Chappie part is the only one I ever lied about everything else is true I was true. I mean, it's what those lies of it goes out for so long. You kind of no choice, but to carry it on. I mean, the lie started with the original host of the show, Nick. It carried on through every host afterwards. It has now been close to 10 years of doing the show.
Starting point is 00:05:59 And I kept it up for more than half of it. Yeah. Commitment to the bit. We love to see him. Yeah. Hey, I have to commit to something eventually, right? It turns out it's just Chappie. And speaking of Chapps, Gentle Chapman steals a man's soul with his hand. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:16 Yeah. Again, Gentle Chapman, Giuseppe's spaghetti on brand for him, right? Like he was a weird mafia boss, with dg cells but the personality effectively remained the same whereas gentle chapman kind of turned into frankenstein's monster i mean he was just he's literally clearing multi-story tall walls in a leap punching through said walls murdering a person with the palm of his hand that i, I mean, say what you will about the actual living gentle Chapman, but the only thing he ever did was take drugs. Which there is nothing wrong with doing
Starting point is 00:06:51 if you do it responsibly. Yeah, yeah, I mean, assuming you're not a Kasabian. But, like, the only thing Chapman ever did was be like a refined gentleman and do uppers. I think they were uppers. I don't remember. I mean, he's English. I assume it's cocaine, but they showed it as pills.
Starting point is 00:07:12 He's just like ripped the gills on Riddle. Yeah, why not? I mean, if you're in the UK, you don't need to just get high of Riddle and you have cocaine in every bar I've ever been in. Just do that. Yeah. Yeah. You were never that far away from someone doing cocaine.
Starting point is 00:07:25 There was coke in the bathroom of one of our live shows and someone just looked up at me and was just like, this is normal here. Like, all right, this is where I come in. I guess I am a bit of a square. Don't want to do coke in the bathroom with a stranger. Sorry. Won't be smoking any of those jazz cigarettes But uh, yeah, chapman has been turned into frankenstein's monster, uh, and
Starting point is 00:07:53 He he fucking died. Giuseppe spaghetti was a little bit more ambiguous about his fate But gentle chapman was fucking dead Undeniably, so uh also george deon is gonna be the one that fights him, and he was there when Chapman died, and he was like, excuse me, sir, you're fucking dead. What happened? But now he's alive and super powered, and finger murder's a guy.
Starting point is 00:08:18 And then runs straight through a wall. I hate getting finger to death. Happens at the best of us. And that is when George discovers he's been brought back to life at DG cells, which was kind of a gimme when we've already seen Giuseppe spaghetti at this point. And then he tries to knife him. Zombie Chapman runs away. Domo joins in.
Starting point is 00:08:39 He's in the South. They get into a karate fight with the English zombie monster. And then Chapman escapes into the English embassy where zombie law does not apply. Yeah, so Gentle Chapman is taking the same tactics as Prince Andrew. To be fair, he hasn't had to hide at all. He just kind of got away with it. Gentle Chapman, they had to kill him
Starting point is 00:09:03 because he was responsible for killing Princess Diana and Dodi Al-Fayed. Say what you will about General Chapman, but he had the good conscience of dying. So yeah, George has to fight General Chapman. They like, they've come up with this plan where I am fascinated with the physics of this because it seems like they play real fast and loose with this about the energy shield dome around the arena. It's not really, it's magnets.
Starting point is 00:09:35 Once again going into the song homies and ICP, fucking magnets, how do they work?
