Yep.

48
00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:37.639
I think it was around this time when I first

49
00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:38.879
started with you guys.

50
00:03:40.120 --> 00:03:40.439

00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:48.879
In a good way, in a good I want to be.

54
00:03:48.840 --> 00:03:53.479
Clear, okay, okay, all right, yeah, or just you know,

55
00:03:53.639 --> 00:03:56.560
regretting your decisions and all that. I don't ever want.

56
00:03:57.240 --> 00:04:01.639
No, I remember, no put that out every single huh

57
00:04:02.039 --> 00:04:04.199
you know? You responded, and I said, well, let's do

58
00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:07.120
a test. And we were on blog talk radio at

59
00:04:07.120 --> 00:04:15.639
the time, and you and I chatted and I said, yeah, and.

60
00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:17.399
I don't you know what the weird thing is. I

61
00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:22.199
don't even remember how I came across the Facebook page.

62
00:04:22.680 --> 00:04:25.720
It just appeared in my feet. Maybe because I had

63
00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:29.399
other you know, pages, I don't know, but I had

64
00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:30.319
never seen.

65
00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:33.439
It because Jim posts on at least fifty other pages.

66
00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:36.720
Yeah, yeah, I guess, I guess so. But it was

67
00:04:36.759 --> 00:04:37.560
weird because.

68
00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:40.319
Yes, he is.

69
00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:44.160
Yes, I had never seen it before. I said, you know, what,

70
00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:47.399
what is this? What is this thing? And then the

71
00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:50.120
you know, the first time I said, you know, I

72
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:52.600
wanted I said, yeah, maybe I'll try. No, I won't

73
00:04:52.600 --> 00:04:55.759
because I'll you know, and then I then it popped

74
00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:57.839
up again and it's like, okay, this is the universe,

75
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:00.600
saying that maybe I should give it a try. So

76
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:03.519
I wrote out a little spiel on the recording, and.

77
00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:08.480
You know, the rest is history. M it was.

78
00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:11.639
It was super curious, your little recording. Jim played it

79
00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:13.920
for us and we were all like, oh, yeah, yeah,

80
00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:15.240
that's good.

81
00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:18.519
Air, but like just for just for us.

82
00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:22.720
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm glad you liked it because this

83
00:05:22.879 --> 00:05:27.600
is this is the way to be confused, not to

84
00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:31.199
be confused with the Peter Frampton song I want you

85
00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:33.079
to show me the way, right.

86
00:05:33.439 --> 00:05:34.519
Show me the way.

87
00:05:34.800 --> 00:05:35.519
Yeah.

88
00:05:35.560 --> 00:05:39.079
So yeah, that was well. We don't want to know

89
00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:43.079
how long Charles has been hanging around with me, but

90
00:05:43.199 --> 00:05:45.199
it's been a while. He's out in Las Vegas. How

91
00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:47.040
you're doing tonight, Charles.

92
00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:50.480
I'm doing good and enjoying a little bit of sumer vacation.

93
00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:53.160
And the weather is enjoying a little bit of summer vacation.

94
00:05:54.040 --> 00:05:56.079
It decided to get a little cool for a couple

95
00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:59.000
of days. So I've been joining the nice showing the

96
00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:07.319
weather and year wise, I think it's about October November

97
00:06:07.519 --> 00:06:09.720
when I hit my first decade with the show.

98
00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:17.480
I'm gonna say it's been ten years, long, long.

99
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:18.560
Time getting from here to there.

100
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:24.920
It's been a long road getting I'm gonna find that.

101
00:06:24.959 --> 00:06:28.000
I wish I had kept the Truck Talking archives and

102
00:06:28.040 --> 00:06:30.399
I could pull that stuff out every once in a while.

103
00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:33.519
Oh, Jim, Well, if you ever need it, I have

104
00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:34.839
all that stuff stored.

105
00:06:34.959 --> 00:06:35.959
So I still have that.

106
00:06:36.040 --> 00:06:39.079
Still have that? Okay, I still have that.

107
00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:39.560
You'll call.

108
00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:41.920
Yeah, that's still one.

109
00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:44.839
It doesn't it doesn't really work anymore because now we

110
00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:46.639
don't have the live call in number anymore.

111
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:48.079
So that was the whole stick.

112
00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:50.680
But you know, we can still play it.

113
00:06:50.680 --> 00:06:55.439

I get there.

216
00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:54.679
Okay, just keep someone in hand for me, because you

00:12:56.919 --> 00:12:59.519
So this one, I'm very excited to be able to

00:12:59.559 --> 00:13:03.519
say hello and hanging there and wish you must support

220
00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:08.799
to a Natalia Solo Maha in Kiev, Ukraine, a place

221
00:13:08.799 --> 00:13:11.399
that has been in our minds and our hearts and

222
00:13:11.399 --> 00:13:14.240
our thoughts for quite some time now, for more than

223
00:13:14.279 --> 00:13:16.679
a few years. And Natalia, So I hope you and

224
00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:21.799

you there, So best of luck with things. And finally

227
00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:33.720
for me in Leeds, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom, it's to

228
00:13:33.960 --> 00:13:41.399
fan Beverly Goalsworthy, who if I'm not mistaken, double shout down,

229
00:13:42.519 --> 00:13:45.879
just just talk about so once again, our editing is

230
00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:50.879
like a Swiss watch around here, so absolutely amazing. Yeah,

231
00:13:51.200 --> 00:13:54.200
if if we'd been in charge of the French Revolution,

232
00:13:54.399 --> 00:13:57.240
everybody would have had two heads guillotine, not just one.

233
00:13:57.600 --> 00:14:00.919
So there you have it. So but that's all right, Beverly,

234
00:14:01.039 --> 00:14:05.679
because you're a top fan, you're worthwhile leave from the black.

235
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:09.840
Yeah about that. Beverly is a top fan, which means

236
00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:16.200
she is worth two, three, four scads of shout outs

237
00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:19.279
when you're a top fan, especially when you're from Leeds

238
00:14:19.600 --> 00:14:22.000
in the United Katedom, which gives you extra special credits.

239
00:14:22.039 --> 00:14:24.360
So should we just take a vote right now? Should

240
00:14:24.399 --> 00:14:26.279
we all just give a shout out to top fan

241
00:14:26.320 --> 00:14:29.480
Beverly goals Worthy every single week? Shall we? I'm saying

242
00:14:29.519 --> 00:14:35.360
it makes it unanimous, So Beverly is getting a top

243
00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:39.279
fan shout out every single week. It's called copy and paste. Friends,

244
00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:43.000
we'll just employ that, you know, advanced technology here on

245
00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:46.000
the track talking show notes page. So there we have it,

246
00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:48.639
and that's everyone. When I've got here, so I'll see

247
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:50.639
I'll stay here in Europe and I'll let Uncle Jim

248
00:14:50.679 --> 00:14:53.799
finish off with the rest of the United States. Uncle Jim, please, why,

249
00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:55.000
thank you so much, Paul.

250
00:14:55.039 --> 00:14:57.480
We're going to take a trip to Durham, Connecticut, and

251
00:14:57.519 --> 00:15:00.799
we're going to say hello and thank you to Faxter

252
00:15:01.279 --> 00:15:03.960
there you go, Thank you so much, Rick. And we're

253
00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:07.360
gonna swing over to Boulder, Colorado and say hello and

254
00:15:07.399 --> 00:15:10.559
thank you to Alice Johanson. Thank you so much, Alice.

255
00:15:10.600 --> 00:15:14.440
We appreciate it so much. And we're gonna skip on

256
00:15:14.559 --> 00:15:17.639
over to my old stomping grounds. We're gonna go to Albany,

257
00:15:17.679 --> 00:15:20.679
New York, and we're gonna say hello and kapla to

258
00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:25.399
Don Lawrence Kim Polly. I think I think I might

259
00:15:25.480 --> 00:15:29.039
know Don. I'm not sure he sounds familiar. I might

260
00:15:29.080 --> 00:15:30.360
know him. I might have run into him at a

261
00:15:30.360 --> 00:15:34.480
convention at some point in time. I think he dresses

262
00:15:34.600 --> 00:15:38.639
up as the Penguin conventions and he is the guy

263
00:15:38.720 --> 00:15:42.039
I'm thinking of. Anyways, thank you, Don, And last but

264
00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:44.320
not least, we're gonna go to Dallas, Texas and say

265
00:15:44.320 --> 00:15:47.480

You know me like no Wind, what you thought about

281
00:16:41.720 --> 00:16:42.240

282
00:16:42.360 --> 00:16:46.200

So tell us just what you think. Get together we

will alter Canara.

287
00:16:59.720 --> 00:17:06.640
And so, guys, I've got to tell you right now,

288
00:17:06.720 --> 00:17:11.079
if you're only listening to this on Spotify or wherever

289
00:17:12.400 --> 00:17:15.599
you are not seeing and you're hearing that awesome song,

290
00:17:16.119 --> 00:17:18.680
you're missing out because the video to go with that

291
00:17:18.839 --> 00:17:22.240
song is absolutely well worth and not in a sense

292
00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:25.319
to see that video. I'm just I'm just saying that

293
00:17:25.440 --> 00:17:29.720
it is okay. So you'll notice on our Facebook page,

294
00:17:29.759 --> 00:17:31.799
I like to throw out polls because we hear a

295
00:17:31.920 --> 00:17:34.640
trek talking of fans just like you, and we like

296
00:17:34.680 --> 00:17:37.119
to know what it's just like you think compared to

297
00:17:37.400 --> 00:17:42.160
fans just like us. So, Eric, what was the poll

298
00:17:42.279 --> 00:17:43.400
question that I threw out.

299
00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:48.039
Yeah, the poll question this week was, with the future

300
00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:52.559
of Star Trek uncertain, what would you like to see next?

301
00:17:52.960 --> 00:17:56.119
And we have five choices here that sort of rose

302
00:17:56.200 --> 00:17:59.519
to the top. We have a Star Trek Picard movie.

303
00:18:00.400 --> 00:18:04.079
We have a live action comedy set on a Star

304
00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:07.000
bas written by Tawny Newsom, which I think we've heard

305
00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:10.319
that we might be getting something similar to that. We've

306
00:18:10.319 --> 00:18:13.079
got Star Trek United, which of course is the concept

307
00:18:13.240 --> 00:18:16.440
of Jonathan Archer, the first president of the United Federation

308
00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:20.279
of Planets. And we've got Star Trek Year one, where

309
00:18:20.519 --> 00:18:24.000
Kirk takes command of the Enterprise, which people like me

310
00:18:24.279 --> 00:18:27.319
think that's kind of where Strange New Worlds is naturally leading.

311
00:18:27.759 --> 00:18:32.799
And then we have Star Trek Legacy quote, which I

312
00:18:32.839 --> 00:18:36.200
think focuses in our case on seven of nine taking

313
00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:40.880
command of the Enterprise going forward. So in that poll,

314
00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:43.960
forty five percent of our responders like the idea of

315
00:18:44.000 --> 00:18:48.759
Star Trek Legacy, seventeen percent like the idea of both

316
00:18:48.759 --> 00:18:51.240
Star Trek Year one, the one where Kirk is in

317
00:18:51.279 --> 00:18:54.079
his first year of command, and Star Trek United, the

318
00:18:54.079 --> 00:18:57.440
one with Archer. Both of those garnered seventeen percent of

319
00:18:57.440 --> 00:19:01.200
the vote. Nine percent of the vote was outen by

320
00:19:01.240 --> 00:19:04.920
the live action Comedy by Tawny Newsom and five percent

321
00:19:05.119 --> 00:19:08.440
by the Bocard movies. So that's sort of an interesting mix,

322
00:19:08.599 --> 00:19:11.079
I think because right now, as far as we know,

323
00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:16.160
Tawnny Newsom's thing is in development, right I think, and

324
00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:20.240
none of the other ones are, so I don't know,

325
00:19:20.359 --> 00:19:22.440
just interesting that that's the one that was like second

326
00:19:22.440 --> 00:19:23.880
from the bottom at least on our poll.

327
00:19:23.880 --> 00:19:25.960
But let's talk about specific responses.

328
00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:29.920
Daniel Jackson said, well, Live Action Comedy is done, so

329
00:19:30.119 --> 00:19:33.119
I would love to see year one and Legacy. Star

330
00:19:33.200 --> 00:19:37.880
Trek United would probably get the same criticism as Academy got.

331
00:19:38.319 --> 00:19:41.279
I do not understand what that means, Daniel. I wish

332
00:19:41.359 --> 00:19:45.720
that there was more information there, so thank you. Matt

333
00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:48.559
Blaseek said, I don't think seven of nine should get

334
00:19:48.599 --> 00:19:51.920
the enterprise. I'd be in for a show of her

335
00:19:51.960 --> 00:19:55.400
being captain though, well there you go, just not the enterprise.

336
00:19:56.440 --> 00:19:59.799
Sam Chatoyant said a third season of Star Trek Starfleety

337
00:19:59.839 --> 00:20:03.359
ca to me. Thank you, Sam. Top fan Rachel Carr

338
00:20:03.440 --> 00:20:05.440
said Star Trek United for me, I would love to

339
00:20:05.440 --> 00:20:08.759
see Scott Backula return as President Archer. There were so

340
00:20:08.920 --> 00:20:12.039
many more stories that Enterprise could have done, and hopefully

341
00:20:12.440 --> 00:20:16.119
this might give us some answers. I don't disagree with you, Rachel.

342
00:20:16.279 --> 00:20:17.759
I would love to see that out of all these

343
00:20:17.839 --> 00:20:23.000
choices myself. Wes Huntington said, I want United more than Legacy.

344
00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:26.000
There's a timeline gap of years between twenty one and

345
00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:28.759
sixty one the founding of the United Federation Planets and

346
00:20:28.839 --> 00:20:32.880
the series finale of Enterprise and twenty two fifty six

347
00:20:33.119 --> 00:20:35.480
the Vulcan Hello. Right, that's a pretty good gap there.

348
00:20:35.519 --> 00:20:38.720
It's eight ninety years plus. If you wanted to see

349
00:20:38.720 --> 00:20:42.480
the Romulin War, you could have archer As reemerging PTSD

350
00:20:42.920 --> 00:20:45.880
and have flashbacks to his time in the NX one

351
00:20:45.960 --> 00:20:49.599
command chair giving orders to fire upon Romulin targets, et cetera,

352
00:20:50.319 --> 00:20:54.000
seeing colleagues die from ship explosions in battlegroups, et cetera.

353
00:20:54.480 --> 00:20:57.640
You could incorporate some of the book canon from the novels.

354
00:20:57.799 --> 00:21:00.960
Possibilities are endless. You could get most of the cast

355
00:21:01.000 --> 00:21:04.200
to reprise their roles, and even some of the guest

356
00:21:04.319 --> 00:21:08.880
cast too, like Jeffrey Combs could return as Schran. Love

357
00:21:08.920 --> 00:21:09.680
that idea, Wes.

358
00:21:09.720 --> 00:21:10.039
Thank you.

359
00:21:11.599 --> 00:21:14.519
Michelle Wiley said, United for me, as I feel the

360
00:21:14.599 --> 00:21:17.519
Enterprise crew deserved a better sendoff than they got. Also,

361
00:21:17.960 --> 00:21:21.039
with budget restraints, a political drama centered on Jonathan Archer

362
00:21:21.079 --> 00:21:24.319
as president of the recently formed United Federation of Planets

363
00:21:24.319 --> 00:21:27.240
would be cheaper and the story should leave room for

364
00:21:27.319 --> 00:21:28.559
deeper character development.

365
00:21:28.759 --> 00:21:29.599
Thanks Michelle.

366
00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:33.720
Harold Solberg said the Archer show sounds great, but I

367
00:21:33.759 --> 00:21:37.720
wish they would continue Starfleet Academy. Thank you, Harold. Top

368
00:21:37.759 --> 00:21:43.759
fan Ronald Paul Woods said none of those options. The

369
00:21:43.880 --> 00:21:47.160
Ellisons want their version of Star Trek, whatever that may be.

370
00:21:47.359 --> 00:21:48.920
I don't know what that means. Do you guys know

371
00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:51.680
who the Ellisons are to know what that means?

372
00:21:52.799 --> 00:22:02.880
Like Harlan, No, they're the people who just bought paranout, David.

373
00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:10.119
Any idea or pitch made for the old Paramount management

374
00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:13.119
is d o a as far as the new owners

375
00:22:13.160 --> 00:22:13.920
are concerned.

376
00:22:14.559 --> 00:22:15.599
Maybe you're right, Ronald.

377
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:26.160
Sammy Moore, Sammy Morris said star Trek lower. Oh, well

378
00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:29.960
that's true, Jim. They can't keep doing that.

379
00:22:31.000 --> 00:22:33.200
Okay, So that keeping.

380
00:22:34.680 --> 00:22:36.160
Why are you coming in here talking?

381
00:22:37.519 --> 00:22:40.319
That's all talk to me when I'm on the ass.

382
00:22:40.960 --> 00:22:44.359
So those were some great comments. It seems like there's

383
00:22:44.400 --> 00:22:47.359
a lot of support in here, more so than in

384
00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:50.519
the actual like poll numbers for Star Trek United. So

385
00:22:50.880 --> 00:22:54.000
uh am I the only like, what do you guys think?

386
00:22:54.039 --> 00:22:57.319
Are you of these options? Are there some that are

387
00:22:57.319 --> 00:22:59.000
more interesting to you than others?

388
00:23:00.400 --> 00:23:04.599
For myself, I'm more interested in the whole u Archer

389
00:23:04.680 --> 00:23:07.359
coming back as the president TV Share, I would really

390
00:23:07.400 --> 00:23:09.240
like to see Star Trek United?

391
00:23:09.519 --> 00:23:11.680
Yeah, yeah, yeah, what about.

392
00:23:11.400 --> 00:23:12.119
You the mind?

393
00:23:12.440 --> 00:23:15.559
Yeah, I had, I think I had, if I remember correctly,

394
00:23:15.640 --> 00:23:17.599
I think I had voted on the seven of nine

395
00:23:17.680 --> 00:23:23.240
one because to me, she has come the farthest uh

396
00:23:23.400 --> 00:23:26.400
from of any of the characters. I mean, she's assimilated

397
00:23:26.400 --> 00:23:29.680
as a child. She's a borg. Not just a borg,

398
00:23:29.720 --> 00:23:33.799
but a very angry borg. When Jane Way, you know,

399
00:23:33.880 --> 00:23:37.559
rescue when they rest Voydger rescues her and just her

400
00:23:37.799 --> 00:23:44.240
trying to become you know, get get deborgified. So I

401
00:23:44.279 --> 00:23:46.759
don't know, that's why that just interested me because I

402
00:23:46.799 --> 00:23:47.400
really liked her.

403
00:23:47.519 --> 00:23:52.039
Charcter, what about you, Charles?

404
00:23:52.279 --> 00:23:55.039
I was in the seventeen percent range because I know

405
00:23:55.200 --> 00:23:58.599
I picked Archer and I picked Doc Kirk.

406
00:24:00.119 --> 00:24:00.839
Look it easily.

407
00:24:00.880 --> 00:24:04.720
I managed to see what they did with Kirk because okay,

408
00:24:04.759 --> 00:24:07.559
we got it. When we have Star Trek the original series,

409
00:24:08.000 --> 00:24:11.720
we've got mature Kirk in there. I love to see

410
00:24:11.720 --> 00:24:13.960
what kind of mistakes and what happened to him in

411
00:24:14.000 --> 00:24:18.359
his early time in his seven year mission. But I

412
00:24:18.400 --> 00:24:21.640
also would like to say Archer, because we never did

413
00:24:21.680 --> 00:24:23.799
get to hear his speech, and I would love to

414
00:24:23.799 --> 00:24:27.880
see what happened with him and the creation of the

415
00:24:28.160 --> 00:24:29.759
Federation of Planets back then.

416
00:24:32.720 --> 00:24:34.720
How about how about you, Paul, or any of these

417
00:24:34.920 --> 00:24:37.160
interesting to you? Or do you have another idea that

418
00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:38.440
we haven't heard yet.

419
00:24:38.400 --> 00:24:39.240
For a Star Trek show.

420
00:24:39.319 --> 00:24:41.640
I think that I think our The one comment you

421
00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:44.640
read is is pretty I think salient, right, I don't.

422
00:24:44.720 --> 00:24:46.880
I don't think that Ellison and the people who are

423
00:24:46.920 --> 00:24:50.680
running Paramount right now, anything associated with that old you

424
00:24:50.720 --> 00:24:52.720
know what we've been used to in the last few years,

425
00:24:52.720 --> 00:24:53.200
that's out.

426
00:24:54.000 --> 00:24:54.200
You know.

427
00:24:54.279 --> 00:24:56.319
The only thing I think that even remotely stands a

428
00:24:56.400 --> 00:24:59.519
chance under that new regime, and I use the word

429
00:24:59.680 --> 00:25:03.680
you know specifically, would be you know, continuing on with

430
00:25:03.680 --> 00:25:06.079
with Kirk and Paul Wesley, right, because I think that

431
00:25:06.160 --> 00:25:11.200
they have a little bit of lingering affection for strange

432
00:25:11.240 --> 00:25:13.039
new worlds, but they're not going to decide until the

433
00:25:13.079 --> 00:25:15.920
next two seasons of Strange New World's Airs, and also

434
00:25:15.920 --> 00:25:17.799
we're seeing that things. If they don't like it and

435
00:25:17.839 --> 00:25:20.079
they feel it's too woke for them, which is you know,

436
00:25:20.160 --> 00:25:22.640
their whole lens, they're not going to proceed right because

437
00:25:22.640 --> 00:25:25.799
they don't want a lot of you know, connective tissue

438
00:25:25.839 --> 00:25:28.880
for their brave new vision of you know, paramount to

439
00:25:28.920 --> 00:25:30.880
be tied to the vision of the past. So they're

440
00:25:30.880 --> 00:25:32.599
going to want a fresh light as my hunch, right,

441
00:25:32.599 --> 00:25:34.279
and they're going to probably put all their chickens into

442
00:25:34.359 --> 00:25:37.920
theatrical development if they ever do new a series again.

443
00:25:39.160 --> 00:25:41.720
My one piece of advice would be, you know, elevated

444
00:25:41.759 --> 00:25:44.200
storytelling has got to be in the front seat of

445
00:25:44.240 --> 00:25:48.160
this whole thing. Right back in the old days original

446
00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:54.480
series next Gen they would hire people like Theodore Sturgeon,

447
00:25:54.559 --> 00:25:59.440
Harlan Ellison, Robert Block, DC Fontana, Jerome Bixby, Melinda Snodgrass,

448
00:25:59.440 --> 00:26:02.680
who are staff publish science fiction prose writers. Right, you

449
00:26:02.759 --> 00:26:04.559
knew what they were doing, and they would bring them

450
00:26:04.599 --> 00:26:07.359
in and have them say, what story would you like

451
00:26:07.400 --> 00:26:10.039
to tell in this cosmos? Right? And you would get

452
00:26:10.039 --> 00:26:12.799
good writing, right, And we've got a bunch of stuff

453
00:26:12.799 --> 00:26:15.440
written by people who are really, really young, and all

454
00:26:15.480 --> 00:26:18.359
they know right now are just the tropes of television, right.

455
00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:20.319
They don't really know science fiction. They don't know that

456
00:26:20.480 --> 00:26:23.359
visionary storytelling lens. So I would like to see it

457
00:26:23.400 --> 00:26:27.960
where there are you know, the contemporary the contemporaries who

458
00:26:27.960 --> 00:26:31.039
are out there publishing legit sci fi. You know, who

459
00:26:31.079 --> 00:26:35.160
are writers who write prose and give them a shot

460
00:26:35.200 --> 00:26:38.359
at it instead of being these you know, junior grade

461
00:26:38.400 --> 00:26:42.119
executives who think they understand three X structure and like

462
00:26:42.240 --> 00:26:44.559
it's like half the writing of Picard was like that.

463
00:26:44.680 --> 00:26:47.920
It's not even barely watchable. So I really would like

464
00:26:47.960 --> 00:26:50.640
to see better storytelling. Is that's all I care about.

465
00:26:50.680 --> 00:26:54.119
I don't really care if it's you know, Archer, maybe,

466
00:26:54.200 --> 00:26:56.599
I mean that's great, but like that's an interesting premise,

467
00:26:56.680 --> 00:26:57.839
But what are you gonna do with it?

468
00:26:58.640 --> 00:26:58.839
You know?

469
00:26:58.880 --> 00:27:01.000
I mean it's a pretty open, open ended question. I

470
00:27:01.039 --> 00:27:03.559
don't know where it's intriguing, but where are you going

471
00:27:03.559 --> 00:27:06.200
with that? I need specifics before I can commit to it.

472
00:27:06.240 --> 00:27:09.920
We have a pretty good idea what early days, you know,

473
00:27:10.160 --> 00:27:12.079
Kirk and Charge the Enterprise could look like that could

474
00:27:12.079 --> 00:27:14.720
be fascinating, right, but we don't know, so we'll see.

475
00:27:14.759 --> 00:27:17.319
I just just writing has got to be the most

476
00:27:17.319 --> 00:27:20.160
important thing. Otherwise you just got nothing worth talking about.

477
00:27:20.359 --> 00:27:22.960
So I just hope they make good choices. I'm super

478
00:27:23.000 --> 00:27:24.079
skeptical that they will.

479
00:27:27.000 --> 00:27:30.440
All Right, well, therery hab it. That's our polls for

480
00:27:30.480 --> 00:27:30.759
the week.

481
00:27:32.440 --> 00:27:38.079
All right, so we do have some some trivia with

482
00:27:38.240 --> 00:27:38.960
Uncle Jim.

483
00:27:39.480 --> 00:27:41.440
Oh so who that means?

484
00:27:41.839 --> 00:27:42.720
I have to do this?

485
00:27:47.240 --> 00:27:50.480
And you know what that music means. It's once again

486
00:27:50.599 --> 00:27:52.960
time to put on your thinking caps and join us

487
00:27:52.960 --> 00:27:56.000
for Star Trek trivia time with Uncle Jim.

488
00:27:56.039 --> 00:27:59.680
All right, now, I'm going to try this. Are we ready?

489
00:28:00.640 --> 00:28:06.279
I have to how do I do this? David? Without

490
00:28:06.359 --> 00:28:08.000
David helping me? Do this?

491
00:28:10.519 --> 00:28:11.519
Push the button?

492
00:28:12.240 --> 00:28:13.799
Which button do I push? David?

493
00:28:14.440 --> 00:28:15.000
I have no idea?

494
00:28:15.039 --> 00:28:16.920
What are you trying to do with this button? Right here?

495
00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:18.720
Okay?

496
00:28:18.920 --> 00:28:22.400
Button right here? Yeah? Did you guys? Do you guys

497
00:28:22.400 --> 00:28:22.720
see that?

498
00:28:26.319 --> 00:28:26.880
No?

499
00:28:28.039 --> 00:28:29.599
Are you trying to glad?

500
00:28:29.640 --> 00:28:31.759
That is not an air traffic and shoulder?

501
00:28:31.880 --> 00:28:32.839
That's all I got.

502
00:28:34.920 --> 00:28:36.799
Be guess we'd all be as dead as Julius Caesar.

503
00:28:40.279 --> 00:28:48.119
A little rectangular box with an arrow pointing good?

504
00:28:51.599 --> 00:28:52.440
Oh my lord?

505
00:28:53.000 --> 00:28:53.400
Yeah?

506
00:28:53.759 --> 00:28:56.200
Really we have working technology.

507
00:28:57.359 --> 00:29:01.200
Yeah, you know what we don't need it. I can't

508
00:29:01.200 --> 00:29:04.839
get it to work. We don't need it. We're gonna

509
00:29:05.240 --> 00:29:05.960
we're going to move on.

510
00:29:07.160 --> 00:29:08.920
You can it to man, I can quickly put it

511
00:29:08.960 --> 00:29:10.920
over here what is he trying to do?

512
00:29:11.000 --> 00:29:12.880
And we can all sort of trouble sheets together. We

513
00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:17.119
can pretend we're it people. Oh there's something Jim, Oh, Jim,

514
00:29:17.519 --> 00:29:20.799
yay something on the screen? Now?

515
00:29:21.240 --> 00:29:21.640
Yes?

516
00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:25.720
Yes, yes, yeah? What very will be the answer to

517
00:29:25.759 --> 00:29:26.119
a question?

518
00:29:28.920 --> 00:29:31.720
So this this is uncle this is trivy with Uncle Jim,

519
00:29:31.720 --> 00:29:38.000
and this is famous Presidents. So the first question goes

520
00:29:38.039 --> 00:29:41.839
to David, and the question is who plays the role

521
00:29:42.000 --> 00:29:45.559
of President Thomas J. Whitmore in the nineteen ninety six

522
00:29:45.640 --> 00:29:48.160
sci fi film Independence Day.

523
00:29:49.319 --> 00:29:54.160
I think I left my thinking cap somewhere. So who's

524
00:29:54.200 --> 00:29:59.079
the actor's name? Yes, man, I'm really mad at the

525
00:29:59.119 --> 00:30:04.839
actors names. I have no idea. Somebody helped me.

00:30:06.079 --> 00:30:10.559
I try to. I always try to set you up

527
00:30:10.599 --> 00:30:18.880
for success, because because I asked you the same questions

528
00:30:19.559 --> 00:30:20.599

529
00:30:20.359 --> 00:30:25.759
Ago, I just got out of It's been through.

00:30:25.839 --> 00:30:33.839
He did watch Gordon so barely barely escape.

531
00:30:33.559 --> 00:30:37.920
With his so well, you know you can hear David

532
00:30:38.000 --> 00:30:40.240
in the game show tradition. You can call a friend

533
00:30:40.359 --> 00:30:42.519
and get advice from then Google.

534
00:30:42.960 --> 00:30:44.839
You want to call a fan, you want to call

535
00:30:44.920 --> 00:30:51.119

00:30:51.079 --> 00:30:51.640
Help you, David?

537
00:30:52.240 --> 00:30:54.559
I didn't help trying to figure out the actor why

538
00:30:54.680 --> 00:30:56.240
you played the President day?

539
00:30:57.039 --> 00:31:00.880
You mean President? What was his name? The President of

540
00:31:01.119 --> 00:31:03.799
what was his name? Was it President Thomas something?

541
00:31:03.960 --> 00:31:06.680
Thomas J. Whitmore, Thomas Thomas J. W.

542
00:31:07.279 --> 00:31:09.839
Yes, that was he was portrayed by the fine actor

543
00:31:09.880 --> 00:31:10.640
Bill Pullman.

544
00:31:10.880 --> 00:31:19.880
That today was Independence Day. That's the guy. All right, Eric,

545
00:31:19.920 --> 00:31:26.759

546
00:31:27.759 --> 00:31:28.079

When it works. Hey, there's the there's the answer. Here's

550
00:31:35.000 --> 00:31:39.079
the question. Who plays the role of President Laura rosalind

551
00:31:39.119 --> 00:31:43.440
and reimagined two thousand and four Battle Star goal acting.

552
00:31:45.680 --> 00:31:46.759
Yeah, that is the.

553
00:31:48.519 --> 00:31:54.920
Wonderful and extremely talented Mary McDonald. I first remember seeing her.

554
00:31:55.440 --> 00:31:57.640
Wasn't she the one who was in with the dances

555
00:31:57.680 --> 00:31:58.359
with Wolves?

556
00:31:58.440 --> 00:32:03.759
I believe that kept yeah losings or something like that.

557
00:32:05.720 --> 00:32:09.519
Yeah, yeah, And then I remember when she showed up

558
00:32:09.519 --> 00:32:10.039
on Boustar.

559
00:32:10.119 --> 00:32:12.440
I was like, whoa, that's the one from that.

560
00:32:12.839 --> 00:32:14.880
I just hadn't even thought about her for a very

561
00:32:14.920 --> 00:32:16.640
long time, and she just did such a good job

562
00:32:16.680 --> 00:32:17.160
in that show.

563
00:32:17.839 --> 00:32:19.799
She was awesome. She was awesome.

564
00:32:19.960 --> 00:32:20.440
Good question.

565
00:32:20.440 --> 00:32:23.160
All right, we are going to swing over to Paul,

566
00:32:24.559 --> 00:32:26.480
so let me see if I can get this to

567
00:32:26.559 --> 00:32:27.119
work again.

568
00:32:27.759 --> 00:32:35.359
Yeah, very exciting. Okay, I'm on a roll. You're talking

569
00:32:35.400 --> 00:32:37.920
my language, uncle Jim, You're talking my lingo. That's why

570
00:32:37.960 --> 00:32:42.039
I picked this one. Who played President John Harker in

571
00:32:42.160 --> 00:32:47.799
the classic John Carpenter film Escape from New Yorker. Dude,

572
00:32:47.960 --> 00:32:50.720
you okay, number one? Okay. It's a great role, right

573
00:32:50.759 --> 00:32:53.279
because this is an actor who I first saw in

574
00:32:55.480 --> 00:32:57.160
The Great Escape back when I was a kid. Right.

575
00:32:57.200 --> 00:33:00.160
He's like the Forger and the Great Escape is the

576
00:33:00.200 --> 00:33:03.519
Great Donald pleasance. Okay, who has been in a lot

577
00:33:03.519 --> 00:33:07.519
of other John Carpenter movies. He's the detective in Halloween, right,

578
00:33:07.559 --> 00:33:09.880
that's where he first started working with John Carabent, right there, right.

579
00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:13.839
The name of that character, President Jonathan Harker. It's important

580
00:33:13.880 --> 00:33:17.519
to remember that Jonathan Harker is the guy who loses

581
00:33:17.559 --> 00:33:20.720
his girlfriend to Dracula in Bromstokers Dracula. Right, So the

582
00:33:21.400 --> 00:33:24.880
very name itself is a homage to classic horror, which

583
00:33:24.880 --> 00:33:28.240
I would expect none other than nothing less than from

584
00:33:28.319 --> 00:33:31.200
John Carpenter. So love Escape from New York, love the

585
00:33:31.240 --> 00:33:32.119
late great Donald.

586
00:33:31.960 --> 00:33:34.880
Lessons, and I love I love the aesthetics of that

587
00:33:35.000 --> 00:33:38.319
poster right there with the statue of Liberty's head laying

588
00:33:38.319 --> 00:33:39.319
in the street.

589
00:33:41.359 --> 00:33:44.000
Dude, I love how Far in the Future nineteen ninety

590
00:33:44.000 --> 00:33:47.240
seven was.

591
00:33:49.200 --> 00:33:50.720
I'm going to be one of the first to.

592
00:33:50.680 --> 00:33:54.119
Do any kind of like cg too, like the you know,

593
00:33:54.200 --> 00:33:58.160
computer graphics to show the skyland of York and stuff.

594
00:33:58.279 --> 00:34:01.240
Is really if you've never see this movie, you're missing out.

595
00:34:01.279 --> 00:34:03.920
It's like the best Friday night popcorn movie ever. It's

596
00:34:03.960 --> 00:34:07.799
just so entertaining and disturbingly prezy.

597
00:34:07.839 --> 00:34:10.760
And that was the the fun of the movie was

598
00:34:10.800 --> 00:34:15.920
that that line graphic at the beginning, Yeah have it,

599
00:34:15.920 --> 00:34:18.079
It's just to do it.

600
00:34:18.280 --> 00:34:18.480
Yeah.

601
00:34:18.679 --> 00:34:20.480
Snake Pliskin is such a great character.

602
00:34:20.199 --> 00:34:22.519
Isn't that Donald pleasant And the poster right there with

603
00:34:22.559 --> 00:34:23.679
Adrian Barbo.

604
00:34:25.239 --> 00:34:27.840
I think it probably is this is does he have

605
00:34:27.880 --> 00:34:31.199
his arm right Snake like he's helping him? Yes, Yeah,

606
00:34:31.199 --> 00:34:34.000
that would be that would be that'd be him need

607
00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:36.679
to sort of like goes crazy. He's mocking the Duke

608
00:34:36.719 --> 00:34:38.440
of New York while he's shooting him. There's just like

609
00:34:38.519 --> 00:34:41.199
a Duke of New York. And it's just like you know,

610
00:34:41.320 --> 00:34:46.239
revealed to be corrupt like everybody else. Is really great movie.

611
00:34:46.280 --> 00:34:48.679

Anyway, Sorry, who played President Thomas Wilson in the two

675
00:38:53.320 --> 00:38:57.519

678
00:39:01.760 --> 00:39:11.840
I don't even remember that movie. That's okay, sorry, but.

679
00:39:12.440 --> 00:39:15.639
The actor who played him isn't mm hmm.

680
00:39:17.679 --> 00:39:23.360
Just pushed me a clue.

681
00:39:24.000 --> 00:39:24.920
I'm so punchy.

682
00:39:25.079 --> 00:39:25.440
Sorry.

683
00:39:27.000 --> 00:39:29.079

684
00:39:29.239 --> 00:39:39.280
one ring to? Okay? No, no, don't, no offense.

685
00:39:39.400 --> 00:39:43.440
David's actually, do you remember this movie.

686
00:39:44.639 --> 00:39:48.440
Golly, how do I not remember this? I don't remember

687
00:39:48.480 --> 00:39:53.079
this movie. I need a hint from whoever's best, whoever

688
00:39:53.119 --> 00:39:56.280
knows this movie, because I am ashamed to say it.

689
00:39:56.400 --> 00:40:01.760
Don't well, I uh, let me see, I can give

690
00:40:01.760 --> 00:40:05.320
you a hint. Okay, Predator too.

691
00:40:06.840 --> 00:40:07.320
Good hint.

692
00:40:08.920 --> 00:40:10.639
Of course, I didn't see that. I didn't see the

693
00:40:10.639 --> 00:40:13.800
Predator movies. I just know.

694
00:40:15.440 --> 00:40:15.519
This.

695
00:40:15.760 --> 00:40:17.519
I'm going to give you another one. But this is like,

696
00:40:17.760 --> 00:40:22.119
this is a like lethal weapon on three four?

697
00:40:22.719 --> 00:40:25.239
Oh? Is that Danny Glover?

698
00:40:26.360 --> 00:40:27.719
Yes, Danny Glover?

699
00:40:28.039 --> 00:40:31.559
That yeah, say Mel Gibson.

700
00:40:31.599 --> 00:40:33.239
I think that was pretty I think that was a

701
00:40:33.280 --> 00:40:37.400
pretty good. Uh, you know, whatever I did.

702
00:40:38.800 --> 00:40:41.440
I didn't know that he played in Predator too. Mm hmm.

703
00:40:42.679 --> 00:40:44.719
See this is not just fun, it's educational.

704
00:40:44.880 --> 00:40:45.440
Yes it is.

705
00:40:45.639 --> 00:40:45.840
Yeah.

706
00:40:46.519 --> 00:40:47.480
Now I have to look at.

707
00:40:49.519 --> 00:40:50.800
You. Get the next one too.

708
00:40:51.079 --> 00:40:54.920
I'm gonna stick right with me, Okay, lucky me all right?

709
00:40:55.519 --> 00:41:00.239
Who plays President Fatteus Thunderbolt Ross and Captain America a

710
00:41:00.400 --> 00:41:01.840
Brave New World?

711
00:41:03.800 --> 00:41:09.000
Oh, don't hate me. I've never seen this one either, But.

712
00:41:09.079 --> 00:41:11.639
You saw the marketing. You must have seen the market.

713
00:41:11.440 --> 00:41:12.760
I probably did.

714
00:41:14.519 --> 00:41:18.960
Come on, Indy, m what come on?

715
00:41:19.079 --> 00:41:20.480
What did you say, come on Indy.

716
00:41:21.800 --> 00:41:22.239
I know.

717
00:41:24.559 --> 00:41:32.079
You, well, come on, Indy. That wouldn't be That wouldn't

718
00:41:32.119 --> 00:41:33.440
be Sean Connery, would it.

719
00:41:34.880 --> 00:41:36.119
No, that would be five.

720
00:41:36.440 --> 00:41:37.280
That's all.

721
00:41:39.800 --> 00:41:44.280
You said, Come on, Indian. I just thought of Indiana Jones. Oh,

722
00:41:44.320 --> 00:41:46.079
that's that's right. The name of the dog.

723
00:41:47.159 --> 00:41:51.760
Mm hm, David, do you know David? Yes, you do.

724
00:41:51.960 --> 00:41:56.280
I knew. I knew Bill Bill Pullman. I knew the

725
00:41:56.320 --> 00:42:01.800
answer to that. So that should count for something, all right, David.

726
00:42:01.679 --> 00:42:02.599
Pull it out for us.

727
00:42:02.599 --> 00:42:05.199
My class score should count for my math test scor

728
00:42:06.119 --> 00:42:08.239
all right, so makes perfect.

729
00:42:08.440 --> 00:42:10.599
Seeing the toilert I know who president?

730
00:42:12.159 --> 00:42:16.440
Yes, okay, And I think that I didn't know that

731
00:42:16.480 --> 00:42:17.960
because I love Harrison Ford.

732
00:42:19.039 --> 00:42:21.280
Yeah, that's why I figured you would know that one

733
00:42:21.320 --> 00:42:22.840
for sure. That's why I did that.

734
00:42:22.920 --> 00:42:26.360
Well, I just didn't get into like the whole Captain America.

735
00:42:26.480 --> 00:42:30.519
And but he was on all the posters, he was

736
00:42:30.559 --> 00:42:33.840
on all the commercials. They made a big thing about

737
00:42:33.920 --> 00:42:37.480
Harrison Ford being in it. All right, Well that's okay.

738
00:42:37.519 --> 00:42:41.000
We're gonna swing on over the Las Vegas and we're gonna, uh,

739
00:42:41.639 --> 00:42:49.119
we're gonna give Charles an opportunity here. You ready, Charles, No, Okay,

740
00:42:49.440 --> 00:42:53.719
who plays President Lists S. Grant in the nineteen ninety

741
00:42:53.800 --> 00:42:56.920
nine movie Wild Wild West, And you can see the

742
00:42:56.960 --> 00:42:58.280
poster right there on the screen.

743
00:43:02.280 --> 00:43:05.199
I don't think it was actually Ulysses and Scrant himself

744
00:43:05.199 --> 00:43:05.800
who did it.

745
00:43:06.920 --> 00:43:14.440
No, I don't think that it was Will Smith.

746
00:43:18.000 --> 00:43:20.039
Maybe see what Eric remembers again?

747
00:43:22.360 --> 00:43:23.159
A friend?

748
00:43:24.599 --> 00:43:25.760
Yeah, that's phone Eric?

749
00:43:27.760 --> 00:43:40.920
All right, Eric, Sorry, So I'm going to assume that

750
00:43:40.960 --> 00:43:42.360
it's the other guy in this poster.

751
00:43:42.440 --> 00:43:43.199
Who's Kevin Klein?

752
00:43:44.480 --> 00:43:46.679
Kevin Klein, that's right.

753
00:43:48.079 --> 00:43:48.559
The president.

754
00:43:49.199 --> 00:43:53.960
Yeah, he plays he's like an under president, right yeah.

755
00:43:54.519 --> 00:43:57.960
Yeah, yeah, he pretends to be the president.

756
00:43:58.119 --> 00:44:00.280
Right, No, he pretends for this.

757
00:44:02.440 --> 00:44:05.719
Okay, man, this one is not a movie, it's the

758
00:44:05.800 --> 00:44:10.519
TV show. Okay. And so I had to delve off

759
00:44:10.559 --> 00:44:13.000
of our movie for a TV show, and I thought

760
00:44:13.039 --> 00:44:15.320
this might be one that Paul would know, because I

761
00:44:15.320 --> 00:44:17.440
didn't think any of the other truck sperts would know

762
00:44:17.599 --> 00:44:20.800
this one. So I thought this was our final question.

763
00:44:21.559 --> 00:44:29.199
Who plays President Olivia Marsden in the Supergirl CW TV series?

764
00:44:30.920 --> 00:44:33.480
Okay, Well, first of all, disclaimer, I have watched a

765
00:44:33.480 --> 00:44:36.480
grand total of zero of any of the CW shows,

766
00:44:37.119 --> 00:44:39.760
so it's not no, no, no, it's okay, it's not

767
00:44:39.840 --> 00:44:41.960
my bag, right, But I read a lot of media,

768
00:44:42.039 --> 00:44:44.599
so I'm exposed to a lot of different things. For me,

769
00:44:45.840 --> 00:44:48.000
Supergirl was the old movie with like fade and away

770
00:44:48.039 --> 00:44:50.599
and what Helen Slater. I think it was right way

771
00:44:50.639 --> 00:44:53.360
back in like the early eighties. That's a Supergirl I know,

772
00:44:53.559 --> 00:44:56.000
all right, and so but I'm aware that they do

773
00:44:56.039 --> 00:44:58.000
all these shows, and so I've seen some marketing and

774
00:44:58.039 --> 00:45:00.199
I know they were like trying to do, like, we

775
00:45:00.280 --> 00:45:03.440
cast somebody that would be really cool, right, who sort

776
00:45:03.440 --> 00:45:05.719
of comes to mind when you think of Supergirl. That's

777
00:45:05.719 --> 00:45:08.480
like a Wink wink homage, right, And so they cast

778
00:45:08.760 --> 00:45:11.840
Linda Carter, the Old wonder Woman, not the old wonder Woman,

779
00:45:11.840 --> 00:45:14.119
but you know, the seventies wonder Woman. I don't know

780
00:45:14.159 --> 00:45:17.840
what didn't mean to use the world old there, but

781
00:45:17.880 --> 00:45:20.199
I'm pretty sure was Linda Carter who they cast as

782
00:45:20.239 --> 00:45:21.960
the president? Am I correct?

783
00:45:22.800 --> 00:45:27.760
That's absolutely interesting? And that was our famous presidents.

784
00:45:30.519 --> 00:45:33.199
Why presidents? I'm curious, is one about to die that

785
00:45:33.280 --> 00:45:36.199
I should be aware of? Chilling some champagne.

786
00:45:39.000 --> 00:45:39.599
Should stop.

787
00:45:39.880 --> 00:45:46.360
There we go, You're David, you are the man. A

788
00:45:46.400 --> 00:45:49.800
little technical difficulty, but we got through it. I think

789
00:45:50.840 --> 00:45:54.480
relatively on s. So that was our famous president's trivia?

790
00:45:54.519 --> 00:45:56.119
What did you guys have fun with that?

791
00:45:57.079 --> 00:45:57.760
Yeah?

792
00:45:58.760 --> 00:46:02.159
I love something different and I thought famous presidents might

793
00:46:02.199 --> 00:46:06.519
be something different. All right, So now it's time for

794
00:46:06.599 --> 00:46:08.679
some sci fi birthdays.

795
00:46:11.119 --> 00:46:15.239
Let me get the strange screen thing up and ready, guys, Ready,

796
00:46:15.280 --> 00:46:16.519
that wasn't me this time.

797
00:46:18.280 --> 00:46:22.280
Alright, we go, don't we have a song.

798
00:46:37.480 --> 00:46:40.760
That was not a song? All right, guys. So this

799
00:46:40.800 --> 00:46:42.119
is the part of the show where we do our

800
00:46:42.159 --> 00:46:45.239
star Trek birthdays and we sadly enough remember those members

801
00:46:45.280 --> 00:46:47.320
of our sci fi family who are no longer with us,

802
00:46:47.400 --> 00:46:48.920
and for that returned to Eric.

803
00:46:50.440 --> 00:46:53.119
Yeah, Jim, this week we're gonna start with one that

804
00:46:53.400 --> 00:46:56.840
is closer to the heart, simply because Paul and I

805
00:46:56.920 --> 00:47:00.360
just went and saw Aliens last night, and way back

806
00:47:00.400 --> 00:47:05.480
in twenty seventeen, we lost Bill Paxton, the guy who

807
00:47:05.920 --> 00:47:08.599
was going straight to Hell. He, of course, is an

808
00:47:08.599 --> 00:47:12.280
American actor, film maker, and musician. Portrayed the blue haired

809
00:47:12.280 --> 00:47:15.960
punk in The Terminator. He also appeared in Predator too

810
00:47:16.239 --> 00:47:21.199
as Detective Jerry Lambert and Private Hudson in Aliens, which

811
00:47:21.239 --> 00:47:25.119
is the role I was just talking about. This His

812
00:47:25.159 --> 00:47:26.800
best known and I'm not sure if this is his

813
00:47:26.920 --> 00:47:29.440
best known role, but he is certainly known as a

814
00:47:29.480 --> 00:47:33.840
stormchaser guy Bill Hardigg in the movie Twister as well.

815
00:47:33.960 --> 00:47:37.440
And I'll say that Bill Paxson probably had some of

816
00:47:36.679 --> 00:47:41.719
the best lines in Aliens. They just add color to

817
00:47:43.800 --> 00:47:46.559
I love every single one of them. So yeah, Bill,

818
00:47:46.719 --> 00:47:50.079
we miss you, buddy. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday

819
00:47:50.079 --> 00:47:54.599
as well to Peter William Mayhew, the British American actor

820
00:47:54.639 --> 00:47:59.679
best known for portraying to Baca in the Star Wars films.

821
00:48:00.280 --> 00:48:05.599
We lost him unfortunately back in twenty nineteen, but a

822
00:48:05.679 --> 00:48:10.280
toll man, uh, And so happy birthday to you, Peter,

823
00:48:10.519 --> 00:48:13.280
and thank you so much for being the face of

824
00:48:13.440 --> 00:48:16.760
our free friend. Happy Birthday.

825
00:48:16.840 --> 00:48:19.079
I don't want to, I don't want to bring this up,

826
00:48:19.119 --> 00:48:22.199
but I believe that Paul can correct me if I

827
00:48:22.239 --> 00:48:26.519
am wrong. I believe that he played in the Star

828
00:48:26.559 --> 00:48:31.480
Wars Holidays special. He played Mallow, which was uh his wife,

829
00:48:31.960 --> 00:48:36.320
didn't he Paul? The Star Wars Holiday Special.

830
00:48:38.920 --> 00:48:41.360
That's a piece of television history I'm still trying to forget.

831
00:48:42.000 --> 00:48:44.760
So yeah, I think I think if Peter Mayhew was here,

832
00:48:44.920 --> 00:48:47.000
he would ask you not to mention that. Pretty sure

833
00:48:47.079 --> 00:48:49.480
so let's let's let's sit here to his wishes, sir,

834
00:48:50.280 --> 00:48:53.840
just move, But the answer is he did, you know,

835
00:48:54.000 --> 00:48:56.159
keep it classy, keep it classy.

836
00:48:59.800 --> 00:49:02.480
Al right, well, thanks Peter for playing both Chewbacca and

837
00:49:02.599 --> 00:49:08.679
Mala in that wonderful holiday special. Happy birthday as well

838
00:49:08.719 --> 00:49:12.559
to Richard Lawrence Hatch, the American actor and writer best

839
00:49:12.599 --> 00:49:15.480
known for his roles as Captain Apollo in the original

840
00:49:15.440 --> 00:49:19.599
Battlestar Galactica television series and of course as Tom Zeric

841
00:49:19.800 --> 00:49:23.400
in the reimagined series. It was so cool to see

842
00:49:23.440 --> 00:49:26.800
him come back in the new Battlestar Galactica little homage

845
00:49:32.960 --> 00:49:38.719
A story Oh yes, without stories. Yeah. So the very

846
00:49:38.800 --> 00:49:42.840
first podcast that I did here was an interview with

847
00:49:42.960 --> 00:49:47.920
Richard Hatch way back in twenty fifteen I think it was,

848
00:49:48.599 --> 00:49:52.760
and he was awesome to talk to. We had lots

849
00:49:52.760 --> 00:49:55.880
of callers from all over the globe. And it was

850
00:49:55.920 --> 00:49:58.760
because of him that he lit a spark at me

851
00:49:59.000 --> 00:50:02.039
and I said, no, I like this podcasting interviewing thing,

852
00:50:02.400 --> 00:50:05.239
and here we are today. All thank you to Richard Hatch.

853
00:50:06.039 --> 00:50:09.480
Ye thank I met him. I met him back in

854
00:50:10.519 --> 00:50:13.440
It was the same con that I met Walter Kinigg

855
00:50:13.559 --> 00:50:19.000
in August of nineteen eighty four, and he told hilarious

856
00:50:19.039 --> 00:50:22.400
story about Laurene Green on the set of the original

857
00:50:22.519 --> 00:50:26.480

for being a doctor. It's very nice. Happy birthdayto and last,

975
00:57:48.239 --> 00:57:51.360
but not least, I would like to give all of

976
00:57:51.400 --> 00:57:56.519
my love this week to Sir Christopher Frank Cardini Lee.

977
00:57:56.519 --> 00:57:59.840
That's right, Christopher Lee had a birthday this week. He

978
00:57:59.880 --> 00:58:03.760
was born May twenty seventh, nineteen twenty two. Just yesterday

979
00:58:03.800 --> 00:58:07.519
would have been his one hundred and fourth birthday. He

980
00:58:07.599 --> 00:58:10.639
was the actor who played Count Dooku also named Darth

981
00:58:10.679 --> 00:58:14.679
Turanus in these Star Wars films, portrayed Sorromon in the

982
00:58:14.719 --> 00:58:17.800
Lord of the Rings film trilogy, the Hobbit film trilogy,

983
00:58:18.639 --> 00:58:21.119
and best known for playing Count Dracula in many, many

984
00:58:21.119 --> 00:58:24.920
films Along the Way. Now, he has a few letters

985
00:58:24.920 --> 00:58:27.519
behind his name, and I'm sure you know how talented

986
00:58:27.559 --> 00:58:31.519
this gentleman is. He's a filmmaker, he is an actor,

987
00:58:32.119 --> 00:58:35.480
he is a singer. He has actually made several heavy

988
00:58:35.559 --> 00:58:39.559
metal albums along the Way. And behind his name he

989
00:58:39.639 --> 00:58:42.679
has something that CBE. And you say to yourself, what

990
00:58:42.760 --> 00:58:46.039
does CBE mean? While in the UK, CBE stands for

991
00:58:46.159 --> 00:58:51.920
Commander of the Order of the British Empire. That sounds

992
00:58:51.920 --> 00:58:56.559
pretty good, right. It's a prestigious royal honor awarded by

993
00:58:56.719 --> 00:59:00.400
the monarch themself to recognize a prominent national role, a

994
00:59:00.480 --> 00:59:04.039
significant leading role at a regional level, or a highly

995
00:59:04.079 --> 00:59:08.800
distinguished and innovative contribution in any field. So Christopher Lee

996
00:59:08.840 --> 00:59:11.079
is one of the few people to have this distinguished

997
00:59:11.119 --> 00:59:14.440
role right from the royalty over there in the UK.

998
00:59:15.000 --> 00:59:20.960
He also participates in programs that work against anti Semitism

999
00:59:21.079 --> 00:59:26.079
or work for anti you know, things that work against

1000
00:59:26.119 --> 00:59:28.800
anti Semitism. I'm trying to mind getting my double negatives

1001
00:59:28.800 --> 00:59:31.000
figured out. You understand what I'm saying. He's involved in

1002
00:59:31.039 --> 00:59:34.320
something called the CST, the Community Security Trust, which is

1003
00:59:34.360 --> 00:59:37.480
a prominent British charity that protects Jewish people across the

1004
00:59:37.599 --> 00:59:43.199
UK from anti Semitism and terrorism. So Christopher Lee, you

1005
00:59:43.280 --> 00:59:44.519
were doing the thing back in the day.

1006
00:59:44.559 --> 00:59:44.679
Man.

1007
00:59:44.719 --> 00:59:46.320
It's hard to believe that you've been gone for more

1008
00:59:46.360 --> 00:59:50.679
than ten years already, but just such great contributions and

1009
00:59:50.719 --> 00:59:54.880
your legacy lives on. So that is it for our

1010
00:59:54.920 --> 00:59:56.880

This last one one of my favorite humans in the

ever Doug Jones, who played of course Seru in Star

1041
01:02:16.760 --> 01:02:18.719
Trek Discovery. And I need to point out the one

1042
01:02:19.119 --> 01:02:21.960
the picture on the far right that was actually on

1043
01:02:22.079 --> 01:02:27.800
his official Facebook page where he's been trying to pose

1044
01:02:28.280 --> 01:02:32.639
tastefully semi nude, and there he's I don't know quite

1045
01:02:32.639 --> 01:02:37.039
what he's draped with, but he had hashtag old naked

1046
01:02:37.039 --> 01:02:41.000
guy underneath there, and I'm just dying looking at that. Anyway.

1047

01:03:15.039 --> 01:03:19.119
He was hilarious in that and can't wait to see

1056
01:03:19.119 --> 01:03:21.119
I know they're in the process of raising money to

1057
01:03:22.320 --> 01:03:27.480

1058
01:03:27.519 --> 01:03:30.760

1061
01:03:40.360 --> 01:03:44.840
Thank you be much appreciated my friend, absolutely lovely. So

1062
01:03:44.920 --> 01:03:47.159
first of all, let's go back to the seventies here

1063
01:03:47.320 --> 01:03:52.159
and say happy birthday to nineteen seventy eight Battlestar Galactic

1064
01:03:52.239 --> 01:03:57.960
illuminary Laurette Spray, known for her little role as Cassiopia

1065
01:03:58.159 --> 01:04:03.039
in the original Battlestar series, became a fan favorite as

1066
01:04:03.079 --> 01:04:07.360
a result of that. So happy birthday, Miss Sprang, and

1067
01:04:07.760 --> 01:04:10.440
I hope there's no cylons trailing her out to their

1068
01:04:10.880 --> 01:04:16.079
tenacious bunch. Happy birthday to Star Trek Prodigy star Riley

1069
01:04:16.280 --> 01:04:21.559
alas Rocky, a young actress who voiced rock talk in Prodigy,

1070
01:04:21.760 --> 01:04:26.440
the daughter of actor voice an actor comedian Carlos alas Rocky,

1071
01:04:26.679 --> 01:04:33.440
and she's been acting professionally since twenty eighteen. So wonderful

1072
01:04:33.480 --> 01:04:36.880
work getting into the business young and a bright spot

1073
01:04:36.920 --> 01:04:39.400
of that show for sure. I just don't think that

1074
01:04:40.239 --> 01:04:43.440
Prodigy gets even one iota the level of credit or

1075
01:04:43.480 --> 01:04:46.599
acclaim it deserves. Phenomenal show. If you're a Star Trek

1076
01:04:46.599 --> 01:04:49.119
fan and you've not, oh no, look an amazed plan

1077
01:04:49.199 --> 01:04:52.039
amaye for for kids, you gotta playful, you know. If

1078
01:04:52.039 --> 01:04:54.320
you're one of those folks and you haven't watched Prodigy yet,

1079
01:04:54.400 --> 01:05:00.880
you're really missing out. It's fantastic stuff, really inventive, visually stunning.

1080
01:05:01.519 --> 01:05:04.400
Hard to get right now because certain people in the

1081
01:05:04.599 --> 01:05:07.199
business apparently don't want you to see it, so it's

1082
01:05:07.280 --> 01:05:10.679
very difficult to stream. So my advice to you would

1083
01:05:10.679 --> 01:05:13.920
be to pick up a copy of physical media where

1084
01:05:13.960 --> 01:05:17.239
you can get this wonderful television show on Blu ray,

1085
01:05:17.679 --> 01:05:19.239
and that way, no one will ever be able to

1086
01:05:19.280 --> 01:05:21.079
tell you when you can watch it. You can watch

1087
01:05:21.119 --> 01:05:23.360
it whenever you want to, because you'll own it. You'll

1088
01:05:23.400 --> 01:05:26.239
be glad you did. So that's what I would recommend doing,

1089
01:05:26.360 --> 01:05:29.719
is get up your own copy physical media a Prodigy,

1090
01:05:29.800 --> 01:05:31.920
so if you haven't seen it, no one could ever

1091
01:05:31.920 --> 01:05:33.719
take it away from you on a whim due to

1092
01:05:33.760 --> 01:05:39.639
their programming or lascivious contracts with grotesque presidents. Hey, how

1093
01:05:39.800 --> 01:05:43.840
I digress. Just need to talk about how good Prodigy

1094
01:05:43.920 --> 01:05:48.400
is moving on in more serious vans. To Jane Widlin,

1095
01:05:49.039 --> 01:05:53.760
musician and actress who played Trilia in Star Trek, I

1096
01:05:53.760 --> 01:05:56.119
believe it's supposed to be Start Trek for the voyage.

1097
01:05:56.199 --> 01:06:01.360
O do forgive my if I'm misreading the graphic there.

1098
01:06:02.280 --> 01:06:05.639
Born in Wisconsin, she's well known as a rhythm guitarist

1099
01:06:05.760 --> 01:06:09.480
and also backing vocalist of the eighties new wave band

1100
01:06:09.760 --> 01:06:13.800
The Go Gos. Oh yeah who we can remember we

1101
01:06:13.920 --> 01:06:16.639
got the dad right that was? That was the opening

1102
01:06:16.719 --> 01:06:21.119
song the early eighties comedy Fast Times at Bridgeminals, just

1103
01:06:21.800 --> 01:06:24.039
the soundtrack of the early eighties.

1104
01:06:26.000 --> 01:06:30.719
They did that one. I love that. Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

1105
01:06:30.719 --> 01:06:32.880
But if you if you were in the eighties, so

1106
01:06:33.000 --> 01:06:36.800
great time there. Interesting era for sure, but go check

1107
01:06:36.840 --> 01:06:39.320
out some Go Gos if you have, and so great

1108
01:06:39.360 --> 01:06:42.760
to be. I love to see people who cross genres,

1109
01:06:42.840 --> 01:06:46.360
musicians trying acting, actors who do music. It's always entertaining.

1110
01:06:46.960 --> 01:06:52.719
A huge Happy birthday to legendary icon Joan Collins. We

1111
01:06:52.760 --> 01:06:55.800

portrayal the woman who tragically broke Captain Kirk's heart, you know,

1117
01:07:15.400 --> 01:07:18.559
because of what needed to happen to set time right.

1118
01:07:18.679 --> 01:07:23.320
So amazing portrayal. She was absolutely phenomenal. Became an even

1119

more widely recognized icon for her work as Alexis character

1120
01:07:28.360 --> 01:07:33.079
to Golby in the eighties hit television smash Dynasty, there

1121
01:07:33.119 --> 01:07:34.880
where she was always getting into a big fight with

1122
01:07:35.000 --> 01:07:38.960
somebody right and pulling out the long fingernails and ripping

1123
01:07:39.000 --> 01:07:41.480
someone's wig off and knocking them down a flight of stairs,

1124
01:07:41.519 --> 01:07:44.760
because that's what classic television is all about. Yeah, Joan

1125
01:07:44.800 --> 01:07:48.280
Collins pretty amazing, always showing up in interesting stuff. I

1126
01:07:48.320 --> 01:07:52.079
remember her from I believe it was Food of the Gods,

1127
01:07:52.199 --> 01:07:56.960
which was one of those great seventies giant you know,

1128
01:07:57.239 --> 01:08:00.400
giant insects, giant rats, gant mice, everything like that. Something

1129
01:08:00.400 --> 01:08:03.079
made all the animals really large. John Collins is running

1130
01:08:03.079 --> 01:08:06.320
around screaming like it was just like often a double

1131
01:08:06.320 --> 01:08:09.840

he was really famous for playing Doctor Octopus, Auto Octavius

1153
01:09:31.439 --> 01:09:35.319
and Sam Raimi Spider Man two easily I think still

1154
01:09:35.319 --> 01:09:38.520
the best Spider Man movie of all time. It's absolutely phenomenal.

1155
01:09:38.720 --> 01:09:42.119
And then he played a different iteration of doc oc

1156
01:09:42.399 --> 01:09:46.039
in the later MCU picture Spider Man No Way Home

1157
01:09:46.920 --> 01:09:50.760
News alerts. Friends, if you're looking for something to get

1158
01:09:50.800 --> 01:09:55.680
you through the dog days of late May into June,

1159
01:09:56.079 --> 01:09:58.920
you need to bop on over to Netflix, where a

1160
01:09:59.000 --> 01:10:02.239
new series has just started over the last couple of weeks.

1161
01:10:02.640 --> 01:10:05.760
It is there in its entirety, all eight episodes, called

1162
01:10:05.800 --> 01:10:11.159
The Burrows. Okay, it's a horror picture comedy satire having

1163
01:10:11.199 --> 01:10:16.039
on the horror, very stevin kinglike, starring Alfred Molina as

1164
01:10:16.079 --> 01:10:18.640
a man who's not quite so happy to be finding himself,

1165
01:10:19.359 --> 01:10:22.239
you know, ensconced in a retirement community that may have

1166
01:10:22.319 --> 01:10:26.119
all kinds of nefarious extraterrestrial goings on. But it is

1167
01:10:26.159 --> 01:10:28.760
a great show. I've watched the first like four episodes

1168
01:10:28.840 --> 01:10:32.279
this last week, and it is always a treat to

1169
01:10:32.279 --> 01:10:34.840
get to see Alfred Molina at work. He's just phenomenal.

1170
01:10:35.000 --> 01:10:36.760
So if you have not checked out The Burrows, it's

1171
01:10:36.760 --> 01:10:38.399
one of the best new shows on television right now.

1172

In Netflix episode three, Yeah you'll love it. That show.

1173
01:10:44.399 --> 01:10:46.880
That show and Widow's Bay are both fantastic new shows

1174
01:10:46.920 --> 01:10:48.920
that everyone should you should be checking out. But I

1175
01:10:48.920 --> 01:10:53.000
love Alfred Molina. He's just phenomenal. He's just these commanding presence.

1176
01:10:53.439 --> 01:10:57.479
Absolutely just can't take your eyes off. Moving on, let's

1177
01:10:57.479 --> 01:11:02.760
say hello to Happy Birthday. The great Lee Merryweather actress

1178
01:11:02.800 --> 01:11:07.800
of course, who initially played a catwoman in theatrical Batman movie,

1179
01:11:07.840 --> 01:11:10.760
one of the many people who played Catwoman over the years.

1180
01:11:10.800 --> 01:11:13.039
But when they did that kind of let's get one

1181
01:11:13.079 --> 01:11:14.760
out in the theaters for the only people to or

1182
01:11:14.800 --> 01:11:18.199
she she played Catwoman in there and did a really

1183
01:11:18.239 --> 01:11:20.880
super jobs like back in nineteen sixty six. But then

1184
01:11:21.680 --> 01:11:25.319
in the third season of Star Trek original series, she

1185
01:11:25.520 --> 01:11:29.880
played an alien called Lo Sira, an alien. She's almost

1186
01:11:29.920 --> 01:11:32.920
like more of a automated security system, if you will,

1187
01:11:33.319 --> 01:11:36.159
And she would suddenly turn into like a vertical line

1188
01:11:36.199 --> 01:11:38.359
and then disappear right. It was wild. And if she

1189
01:11:38.520 --> 01:11:41.439
touched you, I am for you, mister Sulu. And if

1190
01:11:41.479 --> 01:11:44.039
she touched you, you were, oh man, all the cells

1191
01:11:44.039 --> 01:11:47.079
in your body would just explode. So do not let

1192
01:11:47.520 --> 01:11:51.079
the lovely Lea Marriweather touch you unless you have astle nearby.

1193
01:11:51.640 --> 01:11:53.680
So that would seem to be the advice there, but

1194
01:11:54.000 --> 01:11:58.600
absolutely great actress always can't even scratch the surface of

1195
01:11:58.640 --> 01:12:05.079
her work. So Happy Birthday, Lead Merriweather again. Living legends.

1196
01:12:05.119 --> 01:12:07.640
We every now and then we get him. It's absolutely

1197
01:12:07.640 --> 01:12:10.119
wonderful to be able to wish him very very happy

1198
01:12:10.159 --> 01:12:14.000
birthday and many many more. Sir to the absolutely phenomenal,

1199
01:12:14.119 --> 01:12:20.079
legendary sir Ian McKellen, English actor who's played more roles

1200
01:12:20.760 --> 01:12:24.439
on stage and screen, raging in everything from Shakespeare and

1201
01:12:24.520 --> 01:12:28.239
dramas to the heights of fantasy and science fiction. He

1202
01:12:28.399 --> 01:12:32.319
has been knighted by Queen Elizabeth. He is a cultural

1203
01:12:32.560 --> 01:12:40.479
icon Tony Award, six Olivia Awards, Golden Globes, Academy Award nominations, baths,

1204
01:12:41.000 --> 01:12:45.560
you name it right. Of course, pop culture fans became

1205
01:12:45.680 --> 01:12:49.640
more recently aware of his work when he indelibly portrayed

1206
01:12:50.079 --> 01:12:53.600
Gandalf the Gray and Gandalf the White in the Lord

1207
01:12:53.600 --> 01:12:55.960
of the Rings film trilogy, and then came back again

1208
01:12:56.439 --> 01:13:00.399
for the Hobbit trilogies, and maybe playing and off again

1209
01:13:00.520 --> 01:13:04.880
for these new movies that they have in the works

1210
01:13:04.920 --> 01:13:07.920
that are focusing more on Gollum. So it could be

1211
01:13:07.960 --> 01:13:12.920
that we'll be seeing sir Ian portraying Gandalf again, which

1212
01:13:12.960 --> 01:13:18.279
would be such a treat, absolutely phenomenalon of course, Magneto

1213
01:13:19.520 --> 01:13:23.039
really phenomenal portrayal of Magneto in the X Men films. Also,

1214
01:13:23.520 --> 01:13:25.319
I don't know if we're going to be seeing Magneto

1215
01:13:25.479 --> 01:13:31.640
in this December, is Avengers Doomsday or not. I think

1216
01:13:31.720 --> 01:13:33.960
there's a lot of but we know there's going to

1217
01:13:34.000 --> 01:13:35.439
be a lot of X men in there, so it

1218
01:13:35.479 --> 01:13:38.720
wouldn't surprise me if we see Sir Ian in there

1219
01:13:38.800 --> 01:13:43.239
as well. Of course, in addition to his important theater work,

1220
01:13:44.720 --> 01:13:49.600
Ian McKellen's heroic individual of conscience as well. He came

1221
01:13:49.640 --> 01:13:52.479
out famously as a gay man in the mid eighties

1222
01:13:52.479 --> 01:13:55.279
when very few people were willing to do that, when

1223
01:13:56.960 --> 01:13:59.319
it was perceived as being something that could be terminal

1224
01:13:59.359 --> 01:14:04.399
to your career. He chose to live authentically and was

1225
01:14:04.439 --> 01:14:06.319
a big name to come out at the time, and

1226
01:14:06.399 --> 01:14:11.479
has been a champion of gay rights and LGBT social

1227
01:14:11.479 --> 01:14:15.119
movements worldwide since. An outspoken advocate, never wanted to be

1228
01:14:15.279 --> 01:14:19.960
silent in the face of adversity or fear, an outspoken,

1229
01:14:20.439 --> 01:14:25.920
heroic presence for sure. So Sir Ian McKellen, we salute you, sir,

1230
01:14:26.399 --> 01:14:29.359
for the example that we all should follow. So absolutely

1231
01:14:29.399 --> 01:14:31.680
wonderful to be able to wish you as many birthdays

1232
01:14:31.680 --> 01:14:34.159
as you can stand, sir. Yeah, it would be wonderful

1233
01:14:34.199 --> 01:14:36.800
to bend the elbow with you sometimes so you're an

1234
01:14:36.800 --> 01:14:40.479
example to be emulated by many, Paul, we are anybody

1235
01:14:40.840 --> 01:14:41.600
the sarony.

1236
01:14:42.920 --> 01:14:46.760
He is confirmed, like so we will see him in

1237
01:14:46.880 --> 01:14:52.720
Avengers Doomsday as Magnetos O. Very yeah, excellent, very excited

1238
01:14:52.720 --> 01:14:54.039
about that.

1239
01:14:54.039 --> 01:14:55.239
That's wonderful news.

1240
01:14:56.439 --> 01:15:00.479
S and Patrick Stewart are our wonderful friend and they

1241
01:15:01.560 --> 01:15:04.920
they are just hilarious together, just absolutely wonderful.

1242
01:15:06.199 --> 01:15:10.039
Yeah, it's just I love to see people just you know,

1243
01:15:10.439 --> 01:15:13.159
at his age, right, I mean Eve McKellen was born

1244
01:15:13.159 --> 01:15:15.239
in like nineteen thirty nine. Right, I'm gonna say he's

1245
01:15:15.279 --> 01:15:16.920
you know, an old guy or nothing, but but you know,

1246
01:15:17.039 --> 01:15:20.640
still he just lives with such vigor and and still

1247
01:15:20.680 --> 01:15:23.159
loves to work and loves to perform and loves to

1248
01:15:24.279 --> 01:15:26.640
exhibit the craft of acting. And whenever you see him

1249
01:15:26.680 --> 01:15:28.880
on a talk show, you won't turn away until he's

1250
01:15:29.359 --> 01:15:32.000
I mean, he's just phenomenal. He's just phenomenal. It was

1251
01:15:32.119 --> 01:15:36.600
the definition of what the word actor should inspire and folks,

1252
01:15:36.600 --> 01:15:39.960
So happy birthday to all of our friends there. Do

1253
01:15:40.039 --> 01:15:42.560
we have other birthdays from you, uncle Jim or are

1254
01:15:42.600 --> 01:15:43.520

1255
01:15:43.800 --> 01:15:48.680
Well, yes, we have a birthday, we actually do. First

1256
01:15:48.720 --> 01:15:52.279
of all, I just got to say, not that guy. Well,

1257
01:15:52.439 --> 01:15:56.279
Monday is June first, that's my birthday.

1258
01:15:56.399 --> 01:16:04.520
So birthday, birthday, Yes.

1259
01:16:04.479 --> 01:16:06.640
I will I will, I will be uh, I will

1260
01:16:06.680 --> 01:16:08.039
be old.

1261
01:16:07.640 --> 01:16:09.239
Oh this is stop.

1262
01:16:10.640 --> 01:16:14.199
But at any rate, I do have a birthday, a

1263
01:16:14.319 --> 01:16:17.119
very special birthday, and we're going to talk about it.

1264
01:16:17.119 --> 01:16:20.479
It's not an actor. David Roll the.

1265
01:16:20.520 --> 01:16:27.640
Tape somewhere in space. This may all be happening right now.

1266
01:16:31.359 --> 01:16:34.920
Twentieth Century Fox and George Lucas, the man who browne

1267
01:16:34.920 --> 01:16:39.359
you American Graffiti, now bring you an adventure unlike anything

1268
01:16:39.399 --> 01:16:40.359
on your planet.

1269
01:16:41.119 --> 01:16:52.840
Star Wars, the story.

1270
01:16:52.479 --> 01:16:54.720
Of a boy, a girl and a universe.

1271
01:17:01.920 --> 01:17:05.600
It's a big, sprawling space of rebellion and romance.

1272
01:17:09.479 --> 01:17:12.159
It's a spectacle like years ahead.

1273
01:17:11.840 --> 01:17:12.359
Of its time.

1274
01:17:12.760 --> 01:17:17.079
I am c three human Cyborganations and this is my coupart.

1275
01:17:21.920 --> 01:17:23.760
It's an epic of heroes.

1276
01:17:32.079 --> 01:17:37.720
And villains and aliens from.

1277
01:17:37.560 --> 01:18:00.720
A thousand worlds. Star Wars a b in years in

1278
01:18:00.760 --> 01:18:05.199
the making, and it's coming to your galaxy this summer.

1279
01:18:11.000 --> 01:18:11.760
That was awesome.

1280
01:18:11.840 --> 01:18:12.920
I've never seen.

1281
01:18:12.680 --> 01:18:16.520
That turler before. No, no, that's the old one. But

1282
01:18:16.560 --> 01:18:19.600
that no soundtrack yet, it was it didn't have John

1283
01:18:19.640 --> 01:18:23.119
Williams music, No tamp effects. It was just crazy. It's

1284
01:18:23.159 --> 01:18:26.279
totally unfinished, but I remember what the score is like,

1285
01:18:26.279 --> 01:18:30.640
like little snippets of like the Vivaldi's the Four Seasons

1286
01:18:30.880 --> 01:18:32.479
that are just kind of like snuck in there and

1287
01:18:32.600 --> 01:18:35.199
just repeating themselves. And I'm pretty sure that's Malachi Throne.

1288
01:18:36.439 --> 01:18:39.119
It was Comdo Mendez from Menagerie. He was doing the

1289
01:18:39.159 --> 01:18:40.920
voice of the work there. I'm pretty sure. So this

1290
01:18:41.039 --> 01:18:42.560
is the real jest.

1291
01:18:42.600 --> 01:18:47.640
Note the original pull out from Billboard magazine promoting the movie,

1292
01:18:47.880 --> 01:18:51.279
which is on the screen right now. Star Wars opened

1293
01:18:51.439 --> 01:18:56.680
on Wednesday, May twenty fifth, nineteen seventy seven, in just

1294
01:18:56.960 --> 01:19:00.720
thirty two theaters across to you and I its states.

1295
01:19:01.079 --> 01:19:04.880
During the multi holiday weekend, it was expanded to forty

1296
01:19:04.960 --> 01:19:10.560
three theaters before exploding into a pop culture earthquake that

1297
01:19:10.640 --> 01:19:15.319
led to historic long running lines and a massive box

1298
01:19:15.399 --> 01:19:19.600
office success. The film remained in theaters for over a

1299
01:19:19.880 --> 01:19:23.199
year and eventually grossed more than two hundred and twenty

1300
01:19:23.199 --> 01:19:29.039
two million dollars domestically during its first run. And I

1301
01:19:29.079 --> 01:19:32.479
want to spend a little time talking about Star Wars here.

1302
01:19:32.880 --> 01:19:38.039
If you notice that trailer and this this Billboard magazine,

1303
01:19:38.479 --> 01:19:41.960
the movie is just called Star Wars playing and simple.

1304
01:19:42.600 --> 01:19:45.640
Anybody that's old like me, like my shirt right here,

1305
01:19:46.319 --> 01:19:49.199
it's just Star Wars. There's no episode.

1306
01:19:48.880 --> 01:19:52.880
Four, episode three, episode diverage. It's just Star Wars.

1307
01:19:53.039 --> 01:19:54.119
It needed not the gym.

1308
01:19:54.520 --> 01:19:55.359
It was just a gym.

1309
01:19:56.920 --> 01:20:02.239
As soon as the credits roll it says episode four,

1310
01:20:02.359 --> 01:20:07.800
and you think to yourself, what is going on? What

1311
01:20:07.920 --> 01:20:09.920
is episode four mean?

1312
01:20:10.760 --> 01:20:14.359
Right, Eric, I don't think it was episode four which

1313
01:20:14.439 --> 01:20:20.319
in the re the recreation the original episode four.

1314
01:20:21.279 --> 01:20:22.039
No, it didn't.

1315
01:20:22.199 --> 01:20:25.760
It was. It was after after.

1316
01:20:26.359 --> 01:20:28.520
Five came out that they put that.

1317
01:20:28.439 --> 01:20:35.800
In the role they have and the good news is

1318
01:20:35.800 --> 01:20:38.239
is to avoid any complaining in all this nonsense, is

1319
01:20:38.439 --> 01:20:42.920
you know, next February of twenty seven, the original version,

1320
01:20:43.039 --> 01:20:48.159
the pristine just Star Wars, no digitals, no enhancements, no CG.

1321
01:20:48.720 --> 01:20:52.800
The original version has been restored and just beautifully preserved,

1322
01:20:52.800 --> 01:20:54.560
and it's going to be showing in like Imax theaters

1323
01:20:54.600 --> 01:20:57.720
all across the country in lest of the year in February,

1324
01:20:57.720 --> 01:20:59.399
So look forward to that. It's a chance to really

1325
01:20:59.760 --> 01:21:01.560
see the original as it was back in the day.

1326
01:21:01.600 --> 01:21:04.079
So it's going to be a wonderful time to go

1327
01:21:04.119 --> 01:21:07.039
to the movies. Hopefully it will get a substantial home

1328
01:21:07.119 --> 01:21:09.960
video release as well, and imagine it with because who

1329
01:21:10.000 --> 01:21:13.359
doesn't love money after all? But but yeah, so a

1330
01:21:13.399 --> 01:21:15.039
really chance if you never seen it like it was

1331
01:21:15.079 --> 01:21:17.399
without the you know, I mean, it's Lucas's thing. He

1332
01:21:17.439 --> 01:21:19.119
was entitled to do things if he want to do.

1333
01:21:19.199 --> 01:21:22.600
But it's odd just because he didn't ever want anyone

1334
01:21:22.600 --> 01:21:25.239
to see the original version, like he was embarrassed of it, right,

1335
01:21:25.319 --> 01:21:28.600
And it's like, George, you you made an iconic thing

1336
01:21:28.640 --> 01:21:30.840
that literally changed the world, right, It's just you should

1337
01:21:30.880 --> 01:21:33.239
be preserving it and be proud of it, and all

1338
01:21:33.279 --> 01:21:35.560
those other versions can exist alongside of it. So I'm

1339
01:21:35.600 --> 01:21:38.520
really glad that it's being brought back after the scene

1340
01:21:38.520 --> 01:21:40.680
again and I'll never forget the first time.

1341
01:21:41.199 --> 01:21:42.840
So I gotta tell you, I got to share the

1342
01:21:42.960 --> 01:21:45.520
story is what we're talking to be without an uncle

1343
01:21:45.600 --> 01:21:51.479
Jim's story, right, actually two stories is. I'm not sure

1344
01:21:51.520 --> 01:21:54.239
if I saw it on opening weekend or not. I

1345
01:21:54.279 --> 01:21:56.680
don't remember that long ago, but I do remember this.

1346
01:21:57.239 --> 01:22:00.800
My grandparents live in Brooklyn in the yard. My grandfather

1347
01:22:00.880 --> 01:22:04.560
took me and my brother to see Star Wars at

1348
01:22:04.600 --> 01:22:09.359
this massive underground movie theater complex in New York City

1349
01:22:09.399 --> 01:22:12.439
and Broadway for me and my brother going on a

1350
01:22:12.479 --> 01:22:16.319
subway going to this huge underground theater. That and of

1351
01:22:16.359 --> 01:22:19.600
itself was amazing, But when we got to the theater,

1352
01:22:21.399 --> 01:22:23.720
there was I didn't know who they were at the

1353
01:22:23.720 --> 01:22:26.680
time because I had never seen the movie. Darth Vader

1354
01:22:26.800 --> 01:22:29.600
was there. R two D two was there. There were

1355
01:22:29.600 --> 01:22:34.479
stormtroopers wandering around. It was a major major event. We

1356
01:22:34.520 --> 01:22:37.399
had to wait out in the lobby for a good

1357
01:22:37.439 --> 01:22:40.560
half hour before we could get in to see the movie.

1358
01:22:41.319 --> 01:22:43.399
I couldn't wait. I was so excited to see this

1359
01:22:43.439 --> 01:22:46.920
movie that I snuck up and I popped my head

1360
01:22:47.119 --> 01:22:50.159
in the door to see what is this all about?

1361
01:22:50.600 --> 01:22:53.319
And the very first glimpse that I ever saw of

1362
01:22:53.399 --> 01:22:57.279
Star Wars happened to be the destruction of the Death Star,

1363
01:22:57.399 --> 01:22:59.359
when the X Wing and the Y Wing of the

1364
01:22:59.439 --> 01:23:02.199
Millium they were flying away from the exploding Death Star.

1365
01:23:02.760 --> 01:23:04.720
I had no idea what I was watching, what I

1366
01:23:04.840 --> 01:23:07.680
was seeing, but it's just, oh my god. It pulled

1367
01:23:07.760 --> 01:23:11.399
me right in like a fly to the honey and

1368
01:23:11.960 --> 01:23:15.239
I've just been hooked ever since. Now. That was the

1369
01:23:15.279 --> 01:23:17.720
first time that I saw I did see the movie

1370
01:23:17.760 --> 01:23:24.159
fifty one more times and why you ask, because back

1371
01:23:24.199 --> 01:23:27.079
in the day, we didn't have VHS, we didn't have video,

1372
01:23:27.159 --> 01:23:30.000
you didn't have digital. You had to go to see

1373
01:23:30.039 --> 01:23:33.199
it in the movie theater. Well, luckily for me, there's

1374
01:23:33.239 --> 01:23:35.520
a movie house right in the town that I grew

1375
01:23:35.560 --> 01:23:38.920
up in, Scotia, New York, called the Scotia Cinema. They

1376
01:23:38.920 --> 01:23:42.560
were playing Star Wars. It was a massive dollar fifty

1377
01:23:42.720 --> 01:23:45.920
to see it. I had a paper route and every

1378
01:23:45.960 --> 01:23:48.439
week I would collect the money from my paper route

1379
01:23:48.479 --> 01:23:52.359
and I would go and see Star Wars every weekend.

1380
01:23:53.119 --> 01:23:55.880
And so I loved it that much. It was that

1381
01:23:56.199 --> 01:23:59.520
influential on me. And it wasn't for Star Wars, I

1382
01:23:59.520 --> 01:24:02.720
wouldn't be trucky that I am today. I went all

1383
01:24:02.800 --> 01:24:05.479
the Star Wars because George Lucas opened up my mind

1384
01:24:05.479 --> 01:24:09.000
to see this world that I'd never imagine existed, and

1385
01:24:09.039 --> 01:24:11.479
he brought it to life for me, and so I

1386
01:24:11.600 --> 01:24:14.680
just had to share those stories. And one other thing.

1387
01:24:15.119 --> 01:24:17.640
When we were seeing the original Star Wars in New

1388
01:24:17.720 --> 01:24:20.960
York with my grandfather, we ended up sitting like the

1389
01:24:21.000 --> 01:24:25.399
second or third row screen was used when the star

1390
01:24:25.439 --> 01:24:29.239
destoryer flies overhead being chased chasing after Prince's leadership, it's

1391
01:24:29.399 --> 01:24:32.800
really loud. My grandfather grabbed me and my brother running

1392
01:24:32.800 --> 01:24:35.000
into the exit because he thought that the subway train

1393
01:24:35.079 --> 01:24:39.039
had derailed and hit the stop and he's running for

1394
01:24:39.119 --> 01:24:42.439
the exit with me and my brother. So that's my

1395
01:24:42.600 --> 01:24:46.920
memory of seeing Star Wars. So does anybody else want

1396
01:24:46.960 --> 01:24:49.960
to say about Star Wars? Go ahead?

1397
01:24:50.279 --> 01:24:53.640
Yes, I want to jump in because I don't know

1398
01:24:53.680 --> 01:24:56.920
about exactly Paul, but I can say Jim and I

1399
01:24:57.000 --> 01:25:01.479
were the target audience for that for the that movie,

1400
01:25:01.720 --> 01:25:03.920
because I'm going to show my age. I was a

1401
01:25:04.000 --> 01:25:07.640
ten year old kid when that came out, fifth grade.

1402
01:25:08.520 --> 01:25:11.720
It was a big movie. Everybody's like, how many times

1403
01:25:11.760 --> 01:25:14.319
do you sse Star Wars? I know I saw at least

1404
01:25:14.319 --> 01:25:18.159
half a dozen times that summer. Who knows how long

1405
01:25:19.359 --> 01:25:21.680
you went to the movie theater, you went to drive in,

1406
01:25:22.680 --> 01:25:24.600
anyway you got a chance to sing it. I wanted

1407
01:25:24.600 --> 01:25:27.439
to go see that movie. Goes such a great movie.

1408
01:25:27.800 --> 01:25:30.960
In fact, I looked it up interesting. May twenty fifth,

1409
01:25:31.119 --> 01:25:37.640
nineteen eighty three, Return of the Jedi came out. So

1410
01:25:38.840 --> 01:25:44.039
those three movies were just such an iconic, iconic hit

1411
01:25:44.199 --> 01:25:49.239
for my years, my teen hit, my preteened early years.

1412
01:25:49.720 --> 01:25:52.800
Those three got me into such pushing me into such

1413
01:25:52.840 --> 01:25:56.560
sci fi. You just what you got into that, and

1414
01:25:56.600 --> 01:25:59.880
all of a sudden, it's like, okay, I got a little.

1415
01:25:59.520 --> 01:26:00.520
More into interested.

1416
01:26:00.520 --> 01:26:06.760
I think interest in Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, Buck Rogers,

1417
01:26:07.680 --> 01:26:11.520
sci fi was just the thing, and I think this

1418
01:26:11.720 --> 01:26:12.800
really launched.

1419
01:26:18.720 --> 01:26:20.119
Eric. Do you have a Star Wars story?

1420
01:26:22.279 --> 01:26:24.840
I don't, man, I was four years old when it

1421
01:26:24.880 --> 01:26:27.479
came out, so I definitely did not see it in

1422
01:26:27.520 --> 01:26:31.760
the theater. I saw it years later. You know, the

1423
01:26:31.800 --> 01:26:34.600
first movie, the first Star Wars movie I remember seeing

1424
01:26:34.640 --> 01:26:37.319
in the theater was Return of or excuse me, it

1425
01:26:37.359 --> 01:26:39.520
was Empire strikes Back. I saw with my dad when

1426
01:26:39.520 --> 01:26:42.479
I was seven years old in nineteen eighty. So yeah,

1427
01:26:42.600 --> 01:26:46.520
I just I saw. I saw the movies out of

1428
01:26:46.680 --> 01:26:49.920
order to start with, and when I saw Empire strikes Back,

1429
01:26:49.960 --> 01:26:52.720
I had no idea what was happening, but it looked awesome,

1430
01:26:52.880 --> 01:26:55.800
so I was totally into it. And then when Jedi

1431
01:26:55.960 --> 01:26:58.359
came out and I was ten years old, I was

1432
01:26:58.399 --> 01:26:59.680
really into the Ewoks.

1433
01:27:00.079 --> 01:27:04.920
So, David, ye you have a story.

1434
01:27:07.520 --> 01:27:09.640
I think I was trapped in my mother's wombs show.

1435
01:27:09.760 --> 01:27:13.760
It took me a while to get out, all right,

1436
01:27:13.960 --> 01:27:19.319
but no, that's before my time. Yeah, show technically to me,

1437
01:27:19.479 --> 01:27:22.600
when I first saw Star Wars, I shot on BHS

1438
01:27:22.800 --> 01:27:25.520
and so that's my first memory of it.

1439
01:27:26.560 --> 01:27:32.520
Well, before we we move on, Charles mentioned Return of

1440
01:27:32.520 --> 01:27:34.680
the Jedi, so I got a story about that too.

1441
01:27:35.680 --> 01:27:38.600
There my wife and I I got my junior driver's

1442
01:27:38.640 --> 01:27:41.079
license because in New York you couldn't drive after the

1443
01:27:41.079 --> 01:27:43.760
clock with your license for the first year. So we

1444
01:27:43.800 --> 01:27:46.199
went to see Return of the Jedi and it was

1445
01:27:46.279 --> 01:27:49.520
sold out. We had to go to the seven o'clock show,

1446
01:27:49.560 --> 01:27:53.239
which wasn't gonna end until nine fifteen. I decided, you

1447
01:27:53.279 --> 01:27:56.039
know what, I'm going to break the law because this

1448
01:27:56.159 --> 01:27:59.239
is Star Wars. So we bought our tickets and we

1449
01:27:59.479 --> 01:28:01.800
went to see Star Wars and I drove home illegally,

1450
01:28:01.840 --> 01:28:08.600
but it was Star Wars. It was to me anyways.

1451
01:28:09.279 --> 01:28:11.680
So that was the original movie trailer. And this is

1452
01:28:11.720 --> 01:28:15.479
the original one of the original promotional posters on the screen.

1453
01:28:16.000 --> 01:28:18.640
If you look closely, the only person that you recognize

1454
01:28:18.800 --> 01:28:22.119
on there is Sir Aleginnis because he was cast very

1455
01:28:22.159 --> 01:28:25.680
early and even the X wings only have three wings.

1456
01:28:26.800 --> 01:28:30.239
It's an early early promo poster for the for the

1457
01:28:30.279 --> 01:28:33.359
movie anybody else want to say anything about Star Wars,

1458
01:28:33.399 --> 01:28:33.720
I do.

1459
01:28:34.960 --> 01:28:35.319
I was.

1460
01:28:35.399 --> 01:28:40.479
I was probably the oldest. I was fourteen when that

1461
01:28:40.640 --> 01:28:44.159
came out, and I don't remember how many times I

1462
01:28:44.239 --> 01:28:49.800
saw it. I just know for Christmas that year, and

1463
01:28:49.840 --> 01:28:57.319
I still have the original LP soundtrack album and I

1464
01:28:57.359 --> 01:29:00.920
have some of the when they had the miss Star

1465
01:29:00.960 --> 01:29:06.039
Wars Early Bird thing where you basically got a flat

1466
01:29:06.159 --> 01:29:10.279
package and it was this little cardboard you know, sort

1467
01:29:10.279 --> 01:29:12.319
of a I guess it was like, I don't know

1468
01:29:12.319 --> 01:29:15.199
what it was, anyway, I have it somewhere, but you

1469
01:29:15.239 --> 01:29:18.159
had to wait for the figures, and so that was

1470
01:29:19.680 --> 01:29:21.239
you know, just like oh, are we going to get

1471
01:29:21.239 --> 01:29:24.000
these or are we not got T shirts? Which I

1472
01:29:24.039 --> 01:29:27.159
wish I still had. Speaking of Return of the Jedi,

1473
01:29:27.239 --> 01:29:30.279
as I was saying earlier, when they were giving out

1474
01:29:30.399 --> 01:29:33.720
the posters, that was for I guess it was it

1475
01:29:34.800 --> 01:29:37.439
when did they give those out? It was an anticipation

1476
01:29:37.720 --> 01:29:40.880
of the movie coming out. And then it was called

1477
01:29:41.039 --> 01:29:43.800
Revenge of the Jedi, and I thought, oh, that sounds

1478
01:29:43.840 --> 01:29:48.239
too you know, Jedi being you know, peaceful guy people,

1479
01:29:48.359 --> 01:29:50.840
and so they changed it to Return of the Jedi.

1480
01:29:51.720 --> 01:29:53.840
I wish I still had that poster because it would

1481
01:29:53.840 --> 01:29:55.960
probably be worth a lot of money, but I gave

1482
01:29:56.000 --> 01:30:01.520
it to my friend and yeah, so that's my story.

1483
01:30:01.760 --> 01:30:02.119
You know what.

1484
01:30:03.560 --> 01:30:07.239
That soundtrack that you're talking about was the first soundtrack

1485
01:30:07.479 --> 01:30:09.760
that I ever bought, and I would listen to that

1486
01:30:09.840 --> 01:30:13.439
soundtrack and replay the movie in my head a thousand.

1487
01:30:13.760 --> 01:30:18.920
I wore that album out. I listened to it so much. Yeah. Great,

1488
01:30:19.039 --> 01:30:22.560
John Williams is brilliant. All right, guys, I think it's

1489
01:30:23.199 --> 01:30:30.079
time for some Star Trek news. What do you say, hmm, yeah,

1490
01:30:30.119 --> 01:30:50.600
there we go. I love that intro, by the way,

1491
01:30:50.800 --> 01:30:55.479
I love it. So let's I think we have time

1492
01:30:55.520 --> 01:30:58.880
for a story which we have to do. We can't

1493
01:30:59.000 --> 01:31:03.159
get away without this, so Eric take it away.

1494
01:31:04.119 --> 01:31:08.119
Yeah, this is our Shatner says wo segment, and William

1495
01:31:08.159 --> 01:31:12.760
Shantner critiques the Kirk card from Magic the Gatherings Star

1496
01:31:12.800 --> 01:31:15.640
Trek set, which is coming out soon, claims that it

1497
01:31:15.680 --> 01:31:20.399
looks Ai generated. Magic the Gatherer Gathering is set to

1498
01:31:20.439 --> 01:31:23.359
embark on an exciting new journey with the upcoming release

1499
01:31:23.359 --> 01:31:27.720
of a Star Trek Universes Beyond set this November. Among

1500
01:31:27.760 --> 01:31:30.920
the highlights, one card will showcase Captain Kirk on the

1501
01:31:30.960 --> 01:31:34.399
bridge of the iconic original enterprise, but it seems that

1502
01:31:34.439 --> 01:31:38.239
William Shatner isn't too thrilled about it. While the complete

1503
01:31:38.239 --> 01:31:42.199
reveal is still penning. Initial artwork for a leaked Commander deck,

1504
01:31:43.199 --> 01:31:45.119
which I can explain to you if you would like,

1505
01:31:45.479 --> 01:31:49.319
a card from the Star Trek Crossover was shared with Shatner,

1506
01:31:49.479 --> 01:31:52.680
prompting him to critique it. He said they should redo

1507
01:31:52.760 --> 01:31:55.199
the card as he looks like he didn't have his

1508
01:31:55.319 --> 01:31:58.880
Kellogg's Raisin brand that morning, and we'll have some trouble

1509
01:31:59.520 --> 01:32:04.319
boldly going. He equipped this, implying that the depiction of

1510
01:32:04.399 --> 01:32:07.760
Kirk made him appear rather uncomfortable in his captain's chair.

1511
01:32:08.159 --> 01:32:12.560
He described the artwork as looking like a mess, stating quote,

1512
01:32:12.960 --> 01:32:16.479
it looks like it's AI. There's lots of things not

1513
01:32:16.680 --> 01:32:20.159
right about it. Where's Kirk's right thumb? The characters on

1514
01:32:20.199 --> 01:32:23.840
the right are poorly executed, and why is Spock leaning

1515
01:32:23.880 --> 01:32:26.800
to the right like question mark? Question mark question mark.

1516
01:32:28.079 --> 01:32:31.760
Shatner also took issue with Spox portrayal in the background, noting,

1517
01:32:31.840 --> 01:32:34.840
by the way I straightened the image out using the

1518
01:32:34.920 --> 01:32:37.920
seatback as a street edge, and he's still like that

1519
01:32:38.239 --> 01:32:45.039
tower in Pizza Italy. It's hard to tell if he

1520
01:32:45.119 --> 01:32:47.239
was being serious or just having a bit of fun

1521
01:32:47.279 --> 01:32:50.880
with the original yellow shirt. The card titled Captain Kirk

1522
01:32:51.000 --> 01:32:54.840
Boldly Going is a gold Commander card featuring green, white,

1523
01:32:54.840 --> 01:32:58.399
and blue colors. It both spacecraft creatures by plus three

1524
01:32:58.520 --> 01:33:01.920
plus three and allow players to search their deck for

1525
01:33:02.000 --> 01:33:05.800
basic Lands or any cards named Starship Enterprise. The new

1526
01:33:05.840 --> 01:33:08.319
Captain Kirk card gives more hints about what kinds of

1527
01:33:08.359 --> 01:33:10.720
cards may be the focus of the Star Trek set.

1528
01:33:11.399 --> 01:33:14.479
Magic the Gathering is expected to introduce more cards in

1529
01:33:14.520 --> 01:33:20.800
the recently introduced spacecraft artifact type, given Star Trek's focus

1530
01:33:20.880 --> 01:33:24.039
on interstellar travel. The second ability of the Captain Kirk

1531
01:33:24.039 --> 01:33:27.840
card also hints at another card likely included as part

1532
01:33:27.880 --> 01:33:32.079
of the Captain's pre constructed deck, referencing a card based

1533
01:33:32.159 --> 01:33:34.199
on the Starship Enterprise.

1534
01:33:34.319 --> 01:33:34.880
Woo.

1535
01:33:35.399 --> 01:33:38.359
Magic the Gathering Star Trek crossover set is currently scheduled

1536
01:33:38.359 --> 01:33:43.319
to release on November thirteenth. Here's my take on this, people,

1537
01:33:43.720 --> 01:33:48.159
I played Magic the Gathering thirty thirty five years ago.

1538
01:33:48.239 --> 01:33:50.199
I actually still have a bunch of the old cards.

1539
01:33:50.239 --> 01:33:52.640
I have cards that are worth like five six hundred

1540
01:33:52.640 --> 01:33:56.800
dollars each because they're from original sets. I am so excited.

1541
01:33:57.000 --> 01:33:59.000
I haven't played Magic in thirty years, and I'm so

1542
01:33:59.079 --> 01:34:01.920
excited about this set. I tried to now, I tried

1543
01:34:01.960 --> 01:34:04.199
to get some of the Doctor Who sets when those

1544
01:34:04.239 --> 01:34:06.279
first came out, And I don't know if you were

1545
01:34:06.279 --> 01:34:09.720
following along, but when Magic the Gathering introduced Doctor Who Sets,

1546
01:34:09.760 --> 01:34:12.159
they came out at twenty five dollars a deck and

1547
01:34:12.279 --> 01:34:16.359
immediately shot up to like ninety dollars a deck. So

1548
01:34:16.680 --> 01:34:19.239
I'm assuming that the same thing is going to happen

1549
01:34:19.279 --> 01:34:21.520
here where they're going to have like an early offering price.

1550
01:34:21.560 --> 01:34:24.880
Look at that that beautiful card, three colors. Hard to play,

1551
01:34:25.079 --> 01:34:29.159
but he's going to be awesome. I just think it's

1552
01:34:29.159 --> 01:34:31.680
going to be really expensive, but I may spring for it.

1553
01:34:31.760 --> 01:34:34.119
So very excited about this. I can't wait to see

1554
01:34:34.119 --> 01:34:38.039
what the Stars Enterprise magic card looks like. And you

1555
01:34:38.079 --> 01:34:42.680
know what, Kirk, excuse me, Shatner, I'm with you, man,

1556
01:34:43.039 --> 01:34:48.920
it looks a little like eighth. So there you go.

1557
01:34:50.720 --> 01:34:53.600
There you have it. I might get into these cards too,

1558
01:34:53.640 --> 01:34:56.720
I might. I might pick some open My Magic is

1559
01:34:56.760 --> 01:34:57.840
a game.

1560
01:34:57.880 --> 01:34:59.560
It's really easy to learn.

1561
01:34:59.760 --> 01:34:59.960
Right.

1562
01:35:00.159 --> 01:35:03.159
There's there's a few new keywords like vigilance here, you know,

1563
01:35:03.159 --> 01:35:04.840
that you have to learn. But like other than that,

1564
01:35:05.000 --> 01:35:07.199
it's it's pretty much like it's still like the magic

1565
01:35:07.199 --> 01:35:09.119
of old. You just need to know what the what

1566
01:35:09.199 --> 01:35:10.560
the keywords are and how to do it.

1567
01:35:10.680 --> 01:35:15.159
So yeah, well, guys, I think we're gonna wrap up

1568
01:35:15.199 --> 01:35:19.840
the show here. Yeah, Eric's gotta go, and Paul already

1569
01:35:19.880 --> 01:35:23.000
had to go, and uh, we've got some further news stories,

1570
01:35:23.039 --> 01:35:25.560
but we can do those for next week. I think.

1571
01:35:25.880 --> 01:35:27.520
Let me look through them real quick and see if

1572
01:35:27.520 --> 01:35:34.319
there's anything that's dated. I don't think there is no

1573
01:35:34.399 --> 01:35:37.000
we can we can Yeah, we can use these for

1574
01:35:37.079 --> 01:35:40.439
next week. All right, guys. So next week, though, what

1575
01:35:40.479 --> 01:35:46.159
are we talking about next week? You're sure we're gonna

1576
01:35:46.199 --> 01:35:48.760
be talking about my shirt?

1577
01:35:49.159 --> 01:35:53.560
Yes, Lauren the Mandalorian.

1578
01:35:54.119 --> 01:35:59.079
And I had the pleasure of seeing over the holiday weekend,

1579
01:35:59.560 --> 01:36:01.119
and you don't have to wait and see what I

1580
01:36:01.159 --> 01:36:04.239
thought about it. At any rate, I just want to

1581
01:36:04.279 --> 01:36:06.920
take an opportunity to say thank you to Paul for

1582
01:36:06.960 --> 01:36:08.880
hanging out and Shrek talking with us. He had to

1583
01:36:08.880 --> 01:36:11.560
go early, but thank you so much to Paul. Of course,

1584
01:36:11.600 --> 01:36:13.520
thank you so much to Eric for hanging out and

1585
01:36:14.159 --> 01:36:17.039
Forrek talking or Star Wars talking with us. Whichever you will.

1586
01:36:17.079 --> 01:36:19.680
Thank you, Eric, absolutely, thanks.

1587
01:36:19.439 --> 01:36:22.520
All, and thank you of course to Charles for hanging

1588
01:36:22.520 --> 01:36:24.439
out and Trek talking with us as well. Thank you

1589
01:36:24.560 --> 01:36:29.560
Charles always fun and of course thank you to the

1590
01:36:30.199 --> 01:36:31.920
for hanging out with us as well. Thank you for

1591
01:36:31.960 --> 01:36:35.760
you had a nice share. By the way, and.

1592
01:36:35.640 --> 01:36:36.479
You're not blue.

1593
01:36:36.920 --> 01:36:39.479
I'm not blue. I haven't been blue. I'm only blue

1594
01:36:39.479 --> 01:36:42.600
when it's uh, you know the most important that I

1595
01:36:42.880 --> 01:36:43.319
be blue?

1596
01:36:43.399 --> 01:36:47.960
Yeahs around when Doug Jones or.

1597
01:36:48.399 --> 01:36:51.279
I was also blue with Adam Nimoy so all the

1598
01:36:51.359 --> 01:36:53.439
you know, important guests. That's crazy.

1599
01:36:53.520 --> 01:36:56.960
Were you blue when we have Gabrielle on I Gabrielle?

1600
01:36:57.640 --> 01:37:02.840
I don't think so. I don't think so. But anyway,

1601
01:37:03.399 --> 01:37:08.000
so here's two another year or two or ten or

1602
01:37:08.119 --> 01:37:10.039
however many you'll have me.

1603
01:37:10.359 --> 01:37:14.359
So Charles has been hanging around with me for ten years,

1604
01:37:14.399 --> 01:37:18.560
so yeah, you know it must be. Yeah, I'm a

1605
01:37:18.600 --> 01:37:19.359
bad influence.

1606
01:37:20.399 --> 01:37:25.039
Well you know that's so am I so.

1607
01:37:25.079 --> 01:37:28.199
A little bit different now it has I think it's

1608
01:37:28.279 --> 01:37:33.000
more through the decades. We'll just say, Eric, from when.

1609
01:37:32.920 --> 01:37:33.840
You first leave.

1610
01:37:34.640 --> 01:37:39.159
Yeah, I mean we've got a format now and we

1611
01:37:39.199 --> 01:37:40.600
didn't used to have a format. It used to be

1612
01:37:40.600 --> 01:37:42.720
a little bit more free wheeling. You know, we kind

1613
01:37:42.720 --> 01:37:45.359
of wandered our way through episodes. Now it feels like

1614
01:37:45.399 --> 01:37:47.800
people know what to expect, so it's kind of nice.

1615
01:37:48.399 --> 01:37:52.359
Yeah, and thank you so much to David, and welcome back.

1616
01:37:52.399 --> 01:37:56.399
The videos are great and it's been fun. You know.

1617
01:37:56.640 --> 01:37:59.720
I apologize for my little misstep, but I'm not the

1618
01:37:59.720 --> 01:38:02.640
mirror a worker here. That's David. So I try to

1619
01:38:02.680 --> 01:38:05.520
do my best when I can, and I think I

1620
01:38:05.600 --> 01:38:09.159
muddled my way through it. So I apologize baming this stuff,

1621
01:38:09.159 --> 01:38:11.920
but it was fun and I'm the most an excellent host.

1622
01:38:12.039 --> 01:38:16.279
Uncle Jim saying everybody, please, please please please stay safe

1623
01:38:16.399 --> 01:38:18.640
and be good to each other. Start Up fans are

1624
01:38:18.720 --> 01:38:24.920
the best fans. Tailing frequencies are closed. Good night, everybody long, and.

1625
01:38:30.840 --> 01:38:31.520
Let's fly

1626
01:38:50.560 --> 01:39:37.399
M right
