Welcome to GEEKS CORNER! This week, the geeks are celebrating St. Patrick’s Day and wearing their best green outfits! The question with this that must be asked is, what is your favorite food for this holiday?
As the GEEKS move into the main show there is a lot of ground to cover. Disneyland is now enforcing its no-show policy for Magic Keyholders. What do you think of this? Next, Turning Red is now on Disney+ and the GEEKS talk about this movie and the accompanying documentary. In other entertainment news, Obi-Wan Kenobi has a new trailer for this next Star Wars story. Marvel Studios also released a trailer for Ms. Marvel. What did you think of these trailers? The Muppets are heading to the world of mini-golf on Holey Moley.
Finally, there are some interesting foods coming to the Disney Parks for St. Patrick’s Day. One of them is a green corndog. Do you think Caitie should go to the parks and try it on St. Patrick’s Day? Let the GEEKS know in the comments below! Share also your thoughts and opinions about the other topics in the comments below! We’ll see you in the corner!

0:35
i like you're about to say geek's

0:39
was scary
0:41
that would not happen geek's quarter's
0:43
not getting cancelled no it's gonna go
0:44
on for we go down with the ship forever
0:47
yes that's that is true um hopefully
0:50
that is great um katie what should
0:53
people do
0:54
you should go to geekscorner.live
0:56
um and you can go in the chat
0:59
i have a very important thing to talk
1:00
about tonight and that is
1:03
the senate patrick's day no the senate
1:06
has passed the uh like sunshine
1:09
bill or whatever it's called save
1:11
sunshine my sunshine bill it's called
1:13
like save sunshine or something uh they
1:15
are
1:16
electing
1:17
uh to keep
1:19
daylight saving time year round so
1:20
daylight saving time is what we are
1:22
currently in standard time is what is
1:24
from november
1:26
to
1:27
keep the current march so keep the
1:28
current one i like this
1:30
some people are saying we should be
1:31
keeping standard time and not daylight
1:34
saving time some people
1:36
i am not some people i think that we
1:39
should 100 be keeping daylight saving
1:41
time
1:42
uh so that would mean that
1:45
we would still change our clocks back
1:47
um we would this november if
1:50
it passes through the house and biden
1:52
signs it it'll still pass through
1:54
president biden president biden
1:57
my bad
1:58
uh the office katie honor the offense
2:02
honor michael scott got it um
2:06
so we would still change our clocks back
2:08
in november we would change our clocks
2:09
back again in spring of 2023 but then we
2:13
would never change them ever again i
2:14
like this um clocky has a good point too
2:16
is we should beware the ides of geeks
2:18
corner plus or of march uh thankfully
2:20
there are no daggers on set
2:23
what's that
2:25
nothing the batlift
2:29
that would be very interesting telling
2:31
of the ides of march if there was a
2:32
batlift involved will be the klingon
2:34
version which interestingly enough they
2:36
just cast a new captain kirk we weren't
2:38
going to talk about this tonight because
2:39
the article's not written but uh there
2:41
is a new captain the third captain kirk
2:43
that's true well
2:44
only the second though in the prime
2:46
timeline
2:47
that's true this isn't a kelvin timeline
2:49
this is a prime time exactly but they're
2:51
making a new kelvin timeline movie so
2:52
things are getting confusing
2:54
but
2:56
that's okay so with star wars
2:58
um i'm excited though because st
3:00
patrick's day is just a couple days away
3:02
so we are wearing green to celebrate who
3:04
is that i'm wearing this kermit the frog
3:06
tie
3:07
that angela made
3:09
so very cool thank you it's not easy
3:11
being green it is not easy being cream
3:12
just ask kermit um but before we get
3:15
into all of that stuff captain third for
3:18
the third oh that's great um no we don't
3:21
have a lightsaber on the geek's corner
3:22
set
3:24
we don't no oh mine's at home yep that's
3:27
true there has been one once in a while
3:29
but there is not one currently as i'm
3:32
looking around i'm like what is in here
3:34
uh i don't even know what's on no all
3:36
right let's get right into the week in
3:38
geek and first off disneyland is now
3:40
enforcing
3:42
its no-show policy for magic key holders
3:45
that they didn't tell us they weren't
3:47
i'm gonna say which is so funny because
3:48
we thought they were already enforcing
3:50
it
3:50
um
3:52
i'm sure there's some people that
3:53
already reached their three and they're
3:54
like nothing happened
3:56
but i don't know
3:58
what do you think about this they're
3:59
they're enforcing
4:01
i don't laying down the law
4:04
the rules are being so i have a couple
4:08
feelings about the no-show policy and
4:12
a lot of things in general uh mr dapps
4:15
does need to build a zombie's lightsaber
4:17
uh
4:19
the thing that concerns me about the
4:21
no-show policy is like say you wake up
4:23
on the day of your reservation you are
4:25
very ill
4:26
that's gonna count against well
4:29
i'm saying
4:33
some people like myself are too afraid
4:35
to even have one
4:37
um hit on their i think that's right
4:39
magic key
4:41
um
4:41
and so if you wake up feeling ill you
4:43
can't cancel your reservation the same
4:45
day
4:46
um
4:47
it's not my favorite thing in the whole
4:48
world uh but i do think that this is
4:51
gonna stop people from just hoarding
4:52
reservations
4:54
like oh i'm gonna have one monday
4:56
tuesday wednesday thursday friday and
4:57
then they only show up on thursday and
4:59
friday um i think it's good i just think
5:01
there are some
5:02
flaws
5:05
i think that's why there's three though
5:06
yeah i think so too i mean for those of
5:09
us that don't want to break the rules at
5:10
all it seems very
5:13
hard but i think it's it's also a
5:15
reasonable thing like two definitely not
5:17
enough three
5:18
maybe four would be better i don't know
5:20
but i feel like three in three months is
5:22
probably fair and i'm sure at some point
5:24
they're like well one per month is
5:25
probably safe
5:29
yeah i guess like where do you pick
5:32
because i don't know four for three
5:33
months then it kind of feels like off
5:35
balance to me well i like the number
5:37
four better but what about the number
5:39
five stay true to geeks questions like
5:40
five even better um i'm just thinking of
5:43
like the logic of where you would go
5:44
with this no i just thinking as somebody
5:47
who literally
5:48
just recovered from covid my symptoms
5:50
came on very very suddenly and i'm
5:52
thankful that i we didn't have
5:54
disneyland reservation that day because
5:56
i would not have been able to go
5:58
um
6:02
i don't know but like you said let us
6:04
know what you think in the comments
6:05
three reasonable should it be more
6:06
should be less should there be any
6:09
like i mean this is also the you're now
6:12
gonna also along with this gets into the
6:14
should we still have reservations debate
6:16
which we're not getting into today we're
6:17
not gonna get into it but it's st
6:19
patrick's day week and it's a lucky week
6:22
but maybe if we talked about
6:23
reservations
6:25
i don't think they're going anywhere
6:26
okay i was like maybe we'd get lucky
6:28
there's been way too many i'm always
6:30
where they've been very clear that we
6:32
like no
6:34
reservations uh josh tomorrow loves
6:36
reservations and there's definitely a
6:38
business aspect to it of you know who's
6:40
coming and when um
6:42
but i'm saying it does go hand in hand
6:44
with
6:45
yeah this discussion it does
6:47
another discussion that we are going to
6:48
have is turning red is now on disney
6:50
plus so we're going to talk about that
6:52
without spoilers right yeah no spoilers
6:54
we didn't really talk about it but um
6:55
there's also a wonderful documentary
6:57
that is about the making of turning red
6:59
that i highly suggest watching as well
7:02
uh let's start with the movie what did
7:04
you think i loved it i thought it was
7:06
really great i don't know where i would
7:07
rank it in my pixar ranking i'm having a
7:10
hard time with that too because it's so
7:11
different 100 and i think actually the
7:14
last four pixar movies have been very
7:16
different from what you consider classic
7:19
pixar
7:20
with the last four being onward soul
7:22
luca and now turning red
7:24
i think they are all very
7:26
different
7:27
storytelling-wise very different
7:29
animation style
7:31
from each other and from others yeah
7:33
yeah and i think that's the biggest
7:35
thing and they even said that in the the
7:36
documentary of the making is that
7:38
they're trying to create a new
7:41
pixar basically like they're trying to
7:43
break the expectations and the molds of
7:46
um which you kind of have to do because
7:48
if you stick with the same yeah at some
7:50
point it becomes stagnant 100
7:53
anyway
7:54
um
7:54
i really really loved turning red so i
7:57
think i think it's great i think that if
7:58
you haven't watched it go give it some
8:00
love
8:02
um and i have other thoughts but
8:04
that's like about the documentary stuff
8:06
oh okay yeah i i was surprised how much
8:08
i enjoyed it in a different way than i
8:10
was expecting because i was already
8:13
really like i just thought the panda
8:15
thing is hilarious
8:16
red pandas are precious they are and
8:19
just like the photos they've put out and
8:20
the emotions shown in the photos i was
8:23
already like oh this is gonna be funny
8:24
at some level and fun
8:26
and i actually thought it was great
8:28
because
8:29
um it did what
8:31
it's weird to me because i think there's
8:33
actually a lot of parallels between it
8:36
and luca
8:38
i mean they're both coming of age
8:39
stories they're both uh
8:41
trying to
8:43
like i kind of think it's it's the how
8:45
do you honor your family without
8:48
not
8:49
honoring yourself also like and you
8:51
don't those don't have to be mutually
8:53
exclusive like you can still honor your
8:55
family and also honor your dreams
8:57
and um and i think both of those are
8:59
about kind of like
9:01
going through that process as you're
9:02
growing up which i think is really an
9:04
interesting thing because
9:06
um they're so
9:09
completely different
9:11
in the way they tell stories in the
9:13
context and all of that stuff and who's
9:15
in them um i really thought it did a
9:17
nice job of building from the beginning
9:19
to the end
9:20
where uh the beginning is kind of
9:22
light-hearted and then as it grows and
9:24
grows and grows the emotional journey
9:26
grows and grows and grows which i think
9:28
makes for a very solid movie i didn't
9:29
look at my watch once which is also very
9:31
good it's a good sign for him that's a
9:33
very good sign for me uh and uh
9:36
i i thought the characters and the
9:38
relationships between the characters
9:40
also were really solid believable and
9:42
and humorous like it didn't get too
9:44
heavy on itself which it could have like
9:46
it could have gone a very different path
9:48
and you know there's so many different
9:50
types of paths it could take and then i
9:52
just like the animation style too where
9:53
it was
9:54
um it was
9:56
it was beautiful but it was also
9:58
whimsical and then it also had a little
9:59
bit of um i guess was anime but it also
10:02
reminded me of like go back to the 60s
10:05
and like some of those those tv shows
10:08
like even there were elements of it i'm
10:09
like oh this kind of reminds me of
10:10
batman you know like there was that that
10:13
classic comic feel to it as well that i
10:16
really liked and so two thumbs up i
10:18
really liked it definitely check it if
10:20
you haven't seen it i also thought it
10:22
absolutely fascinating
10:24
that the score
10:26
for this movie is the same guy who
10:28
scored the mandalorian
10:30
who scored black panther
10:33
and they don't sound anything alike no
10:35
like it was i was he's also produced for
10:38
childish gambino which i found out today
10:40
okay he's
10:41
so musically talented yeah and and
10:45
i i kind of felt like you were starting
10:46
to figure out like oh this is his thing
10:49
with black panther and mandalorian
10:51
because there's some crossovers that you
10:53
could be like okay i think i'm figuring
10:55
out what his his sound is
10:57
um like where it's coming from and how
10:59
he writes but then you listen to this
11:01
and it was so completely different and i
11:03
was just like oh this is i mean there is
11:05
some connective tissues there but um
11:08
i was really impressed with the score
11:09
and the songs were fun yeah it was
11:11
really fun yeah i also think that um
11:14
billy eilish and her brother phineas did
11:16
a great job writing the songs for four
11:18
town yeah uh that's
11:19
what i was talking about oh yeah yeah so
11:21
those were written by billy eilish and
11:23
her brother that was my aside was and
11:25
the songs were fun like oh i thought you
11:27
meant anyway uh they did a great job
11:29
writing for a very believable
11:32
90s early 2000s era boy bands which i
11:34
honestly thought that was going to play
11:36
bigger in the movie so today like that
11:38
one kind of surprised me a little bit
11:39
like they were definitely important and
11:41
prominent but um not to the level that i
11:44
was expecting um let's talk about the
11:46
trade of the trailer the uh the
11:50
documentary yeah what do you think um i
11:52
love it uh most specifically i love that
11:54
they focus on the fact that it is an
11:56
all-female leadership team
11:58
um
11:59
which is the first time that has
12:01
happened in pixar history that it's an
12:03
all-female leadership team
12:05
um and i love that they focused on their
12:08
individual stories and uh
12:12
their journeys being a teenager and also
12:14
their journey is being
12:16
like creating their own families yeah
12:18
and yeah um
12:20
also i just love domishi
12:22
i love the culture she created that was
12:25
so
12:26
building every person up like
12:28
i feel like most of these making of are
12:30
great they're like oh this is a really
12:31
talented
12:33
you know
12:34
director of photography whatever
12:36
and and you get that nice like building
12:38
each other up but like this was genuine
12:41
like
12:42
this is why you're really good like
12:44
there were specific attributes of of
12:47
people and it was saying it to their
12:48
face and hearing their genuine reactions
12:51
and i thought that was really um telling
12:54
for why you get the movie you get
12:55
because you get the support you get not
12:57
just professionally but interpersonally
13:00
as well and i thought that showed really
13:01
nice in the documentary every time there
13:03
was two people sitting on that same
13:04
couch with a little bow pillow you knew
13:06
they were going to say something so nice
13:08
about each other um like specifically
13:11
thinking about like domi and uh rhona
13:14
um and she's like no you're so
13:15
incredibly talented and yeah yeah uh i
13:19
also really loved the producer who's
13:21
been with pixar since a bug's life yeah
13:24
um and she said that uh it had been a
13:26
long time since she worked the first
13:27
time director
13:29
but the fun of it was that domi would
13:31
question her on things and say why do we
13:32
do things that way and she says no one's
13:34
questioned me on that in ten plus years
13:37
yeah and i had just gotten complacent
13:38
with things
13:40
i also thought it was amazing her house
13:42
yeah i was just like oh that's a house
13:45
like it looked like this is totally
13:47
nothing to do with the documentary but
13:48
literally like there's a couple scenes
13:50
where like she's with her kids or
13:51
they're cooking i like the cat and i was
13:54
just like this house looks like
13:55
something out of a movie but she
13:57
actually lives there well and it's also
13:59
nuts like every time they did a house
14:00
shot i would always go oh my god this is
14:02
the bay area yeah and like it's a nice
14:05
house apparently they pay really well at
14:07
pixar i guess well pixar is a really
14:09
great story great and inclusive company
14:11
that's that lends itself to
14:14
people being able to make a career there
14:16
yeah which i think is really nice but um
14:19
i just loved
14:21
the importance of women telling a story
14:25
about young girls
14:27
and like finding who they are uh but
14:30
they also like they're very
14:32
they're putting emphasis on this is a
14:33
story that all young girls have been
14:34
through but also with the story that
14:36
everyone has been through and it's a
14:37
very one way or another relatable
14:39
um i mean i turned into a magical red
14:41
panda when i was 13. i don't know
14:47
um no but it's i thought it was blue i
14:50
think it was great yeah and then i gave
14:52
it up which is why my hair is not blue
14:54
anymore oh there we go
14:56
uh but no i think it's super wonderful
14:59
and
15:00
i was so pleased watching that
15:02
documentary definitely watch the
15:03
documentary and if you haven't
15:05
i would say watch the movie watch the
15:07
documentary watch the movie again and i
15:09
feel yeah that's the way i feel about
15:11
most bonus features and it makes me
15:12
hopeful for more i'm hoping there's more
15:14
bonus features whenever they release
15:15
this on home video whatever that is now
15:18
home entertainment i don't know just
15:20
because i feel like there's so many
15:22
more stories to be told about the making
15:25
of whether it's creating a character
15:26
that's specific
15:27
or the music or the band like i think
15:30
there's a lot of fun things to be
15:32
explored in the backstory of uh turning
15:35
red so i'm looking forward to seeing
15:36
that i think it's solid i think the only
15:38
thing wrong with this movie is the fact
15:40
that we couldn't go down to the local
15:42
theater and watch it i wish
15:44
um el capitan is just too far first and
15:46
i saw i saw an interview this morning
15:48
and i'm trying to remember where i read
15:49
it
15:50
and i really should have double checked
15:52
this before opening my mouth but domi
15:54
she was talking about how hard it was to
15:56
get this through the disney executives
15:58
because they didn't necessarily like
15:59
this isn't their story
16:02
and so she's like i had to go into a
16:03
room of old old white guys and
16:05
pitch this story that they don't really
16:08
connect with
16:09
which i
16:10
get to an extent but a good creative is
16:13
gonna be like okay and i actually think
16:15
um
16:16
you know that's to the credit of bob
16:18
iger is he recognized he wasn't as open
16:20
to things and that's why he moved on so
16:21
i
16:22
definitely hat tip to him um but uh
16:26
but i started you know you start
16:28
thinking about that and um
16:31
and it makes this movie even more
16:32
impressive but then i started having
16:34
like the secondary thought of like oh is
16:35
that why it's not in theater
16:37
and i hope that's not the answer like i
16:39
hope it was legitimately we want to get
16:41
this to as many people as possible
16:43
disney plus we can go to what is it a
16:45
hundred and something million now and um
16:48
and most people haven't watched in kanto
16:50
five times on disney plus yeah and that
16:52
that is a good read like when you think
16:54
about it but i just kind of wish it was
16:55
the dual thing because this is one i
16:58
really would have liked to have seen on
16:59
the big screen 100 and i will not drive
17:01
to hollywood i was sitting in a hotel
17:04
with a movie theater across the hall or
17:06
not across all across the street on
17:09
thursday night which is when it would
17:10
have released
17:12
would have been perfect and there was
17:13
nothing good in that theater i actually
17:14
thought about it
17:16
i will say just the minor side note um
17:19
you can tell disney was very excited
17:21
about this release because there's
17:22
merchandise everywhere it's well and
17:24
it's
17:25
screaming for merchandise yes like so i
17:27
almost want the red panda go into disney
17:29
parks you can even go into target um my
17:32
friend frankie really cute mug on
17:34
shopkins yeah i saw yeah
17:35
my friend frankie was showing me a
17:37
picture yesterday um he got the
17:40
it almost looks like kind of like the
17:41
hamburger bag style from tokyo um but it
17:44
is maymay as a panda and then when you
17:46
open it up there's a blanket inside and
17:48
the print is so cute um i almost wish
17:51
there was like a bag kind of like the
17:53
hamburger bag style where you could just
17:55
have it as a little backpack so they can
17:56
be precious but anyway that's not on
17:58
that all right two thumbs up for for uh
18:01
turning red make sure to see it more
18:03
than once
18:04
uh moving right along later this spring
18:07
we're getting more star wars
18:09
and that comes in the form of obi-wan
18:10
kenobi which the trailer was released
18:12
since we last met
18:14
and i thought it was awesome
18:17
not just the music because john williams
18:19
anytime you get to hear john williams
18:20
music is amazing
18:22
but i loved the
18:26
for a show that i wasn't sure that
18:28
needed to be made
18:30
it looks like it's a show that is
18:33
actually going to be interesting and of
18:36
value and i'm curious to see how much it
18:38
connects with
18:40
you know original series prequels
18:42
because it sounds like for sure it'll it
18:44
looks like for sure it'll connect to
18:45
both of those but then also what is it
18:48
going to do to connect with the um the
18:49
cartoons uh what is it
18:52
i guess animated
18:54
shows they're not really cartoons
18:55
anymore are they they're cartoons the
18:57
animated series um yeah
18:59
but uh
19:00
anyway this this trailer is
19:03
very fascinating just because of the
19:05
different elements it pulls together and
19:07
to me the most interesting part of this
19:10
trailer and then i'll let you talk
19:12
is uncle owen
19:14
because uncle owen we've always thought
19:16
is this old grumpy farmer it's a
19:18
moisture farmer or a young grumpy farmer
19:22
and it sure looks like he's going on an
19:24
adventure
19:26
which might be why he's so anti-jedi
19:29
that would make sense
19:30
like
19:31
because
19:32
there's always kind of been a disconnect
19:34
to me from the end of revenge of the
19:36
sith where he gets
19:38
luke from obi-wan and there's not really
19:41
a huge like there's no reason for them
19:43
to dislike
19:46
all of that um and then i mean there's
19:48
kind of a reason but it's not elaborated
19:50
well enough and then you get to
19:54
a new hope and he's pretty anti
19:57
uh jedi and so i'm wondering if if
20:00
we're gonna discover that this is a
20:03
a front that he's putting up in a new
20:05
hope which is very possible
20:07
um looking at this trailer or if if he
20:10
genuinely comes to dislike the jedi
20:13
um
20:14
because i love the idea that he becomes
20:16
part of the protection of of luke
20:18
skywalker and we get to see how involved
20:20
he really was and how he's a hero in his
20:22
own right which makes their deaths in a
20:25
new hope that much more tragic yeah and
20:28
and also uh mean more so it'll be it'll
20:31
be
20:32
very interesting uh cocky said it has a
20:34
tough timeline cannon do it here too
20:36
yeah there's a lot going on
20:37
both uh
20:39
in the live action stuff we've already
20:40
known i mean you really want to get dig
20:43
dig crazy on this you have to navigate
20:46
through clone wars rebels
20:48
revenge of the sith and all the prequels
20:50
don't forget solo oh and then you've got
20:53
rogue one coming up and the prequel to
20:54
rogue one which is going to be a series
20:56
also on disney plus followed by original
20:58
series
20:59
and then the sequels
21:02
your turn
21:04
i like that they use duel of the face
21:08
uh no so
21:10
this is a very in-depth discussion that
21:12
we were having before the show after we
21:14
watched the trailer um because i watched
21:15
the trailer for the flat out say we
21:16
don't have enough time to get through
21:17
the whole thing now do our best uh
21:21
there will be square blast tonight uh
21:23
that's our first time back in doing a
21:25
proper show in three weeks yeah so
21:32
were two weeks ago and it was an
21:33
improper show faster
21:36
i said we
21:37
yeah me i know but it was i was just
21:40
being funny
21:41
i watched the
21:43
uh trailer on the shareholders call i
21:45
was very sick in bed so i was like maybe
21:47
i didn't like it because i was sick in
21:49
bed and we re-watched it again
21:51
now um
21:53
and i still don't care for it and the
21:56
reason is everything you just said of oh
22:01
you have to take into account all of it
22:03
it feels like i have to take
22:04
prerequisites to watch obi-wan
22:07
and i don't want to do that like and
22:09
hopefully
22:10
like to me if that's what you like let's
22:13
say you watch this and you feel like oh
22:14
i should have done the homework then
22:16
they failed in the storytelling that's
22:18
true because if you think of
22:20
like i really think that's something
22:22
that's been successful with most of the
22:25
skywalker movies
22:27
is you can step into any one of them
22:29
whether it's a new hope
22:31
force awakens
22:33
uh revenge of the sith
22:35
and within a couple minutes you kind of
22:36
have a general idea what's going on
22:39
and really like you can have all of
22:40
these backstories and sidelines and what
22:42
everything but the movie stands by
22:44
itself like force awakens
22:47
without even knowing what's going on you
22:48
know what's going on and it's it's they
22:50
did a nice job same with a new hope like
22:52
their standalone movies that tell a
22:54
solid story empire strikes back um and
22:57
that's the reason that season one of the
22:59
mandalorian is perfect star wars to me
23:01
it tells a new story
23:03
um it's very fun it's very exciting i
23:06
like it is my i always say
23:09
um the mandalorian season one is my
23:10
favorite piece of star wars canon that's
23:12
great period yeah um season two they 100
23:15
sort of hitting you over the head with
23:16
things that if you have not watched
23:18
everything
23:19
you don't understand yep i agree um so
23:21
yeah that's kind of where i'm coming
23:23
from is i have not watched either of the
23:24
animated series i have tried i just
23:27
couldn't get into them
23:29
um
23:31
but it's just starting to feel very
23:32
overwhelming to be a star wars fan
23:35
i think that's fair yeah um and but i
23:37
also think
23:39
that shows a failure in storytelling if
23:41
that's what it ends up being and that
23:43
would be bummer um and it'll be
23:45
interesting because uh deborah cho is
23:47
the one behind this she's the director
23:49
and she was at the beginning of the
23:51
mandalorian which
23:52
could be good things
23:54
um but you just don't know like there's
23:57
a lot more history and depth and
24:00
weight i think is actually a better word
24:02
when you get into anything skywalker
24:04
related
24:05
and
24:08
and obi-wan is like on the side of that
24:11
so i think there is a lot of risk that
24:13
they have as they're going into this and
24:15
uh they're already i heard rumors that
24:16
they're already discussing the
24:18
possibility of season two um which
24:22
i don't know i think yeah like it'll i'm
24:24
very
24:25
intrigued by it i will say
24:28
most importantly
24:30
i love luke skywalker going vroom vroom
24:32
um yeah that was cute i want him to go
24:35
to tashi station
24:37
and pick up some power you know what i
24:39
don't want him to do go to tashi station
24:44
i don't want him like when they're
24:46
showing that thing of him going vroom
24:48
vroom on the on the whatever that is
24:51
i don't want them to zoom in
24:53
and him to yell over to uncle owen now
24:55
that's pod racing oh i want that so bad
25:00
i didn't even know i wanted that
25:03
ah
25:04
now that's pod racing because then it'd
25:07
be like connecting to his dad
25:10
so my favorite thing i know i've told i
25:11
know i've told the story on geeks for
25:12
reform and tell it again because i find
25:14
it hilarious i went through a phase
25:15
where i couldn't stop saying that that's
25:17
pod racing to everything anything that
25:19
happened that would happen again now
25:20
that's padres saying you just triggered
25:22
something in my head it might um
25:24
all that to say i went this face for
25:26
like three weeks we go on star tours we
25:28
get the pod racing scene mr dapp slowly
25:31
turns to me and goes this is your fault
25:35
anyway that's one of my favorite um it's
25:37
just really funny uh-huh now that's pod
25:40
racing that is pod race that is battery
25:42
assay all right let's move right along
25:44
we've got another trailer this week and
25:45
that's well actually today for miss
25:47
marvel hey
25:49
i will admit i love everything i've seen
25:51
about this yes
25:52
i love the the comic beginning of it
25:55
with the speech bubbles yes thank you
25:58
and um i love
26:00
the fact that it seems like they're
26:02
leaning into
26:04
it's kind of like any comic book fan
26:08
dream come true where they get to become
26:11
the heroes that they read about yeah and
26:13
and it seems like that's what they're
26:14
leaning into and it's it's kind of the
26:16
underdog becoming
26:17
uh underdog um if you've seen that
26:19
cartoon way back in the day you haven't
26:21
but um
26:22
that was before i was born too they made
26:25
another underdog oh yeah i forgot about
26:27
that i didn't see that one either it
26:29
didn't look good
26:30
um
26:31
yeah it's kind of really fun we should
26:33
find that one and put it on the geeks
26:35
corner playlist
26:37
it's a it's a hilarious tell us what
26:39
songs you should think should be on the
26:41
playlist yes geeky songs let us know uh
26:44
but uh
26:45
yeah i'm i'm really intrigued by it i'm
26:48
curious like they haven't really
26:50
it's the first trailer so there's not
26:52
really any like hey this is the bad guy
26:54
or this is the
26:56
like this is where it's going but it
26:57
looks like fun i think it looks so fun i
27:00
love that they lean a lot into um
27:02
komala's culture
27:04
i think that's really important um i
27:06
also love that she's just a teenage girl
27:09
like i think that's so awesome
27:11
it was interesting too seeing this right
27:13
after seeing turning red yeah and almost
27:16
feeling like wait a minute i feel like i
27:18
kind of just saw this like but it's not
27:21
a bad thing no no no
27:22
i was gonna say because how many times
27:24
have we watched stories of
27:26
young men that are like yeah in the same
27:29
position yeah um so i think that we're
27:31
in this new
27:32
renaissance you could almost call it of
27:34
women-led stories
27:36
um
27:37
and it's maybe time for men to realize
27:40
that they can also relate to these
27:41
stories just because they are not the
27:42
center pieces
27:44
uh that scene where she's sitting on the
27:47
lamp post feels so spider-man um
27:49
specifically no way home or not no way
27:51
home homecoming yeah when he's like the
27:53
friendly neighborhood spider-man don't
27:55
but don't you think the two of them
27:56
would be hilarious together oh 100
27:58
because they would especially for where
28:00
he's at in his life now like yes there's
28:03
i feel like so many it may it probably
28:05
won't happen but at least not anytime
28:08
soon but i'm like oh that would be so
28:09
fun because she kind of has that civil
28:11
war um
28:13
peter parker energy yeah like when he's
28:15
like you know that really old movie
28:16
empire strikes back and then ant-man
28:19
says i'm sorry what did he say yeah yeah
28:22
but yeah and and i think they both kind
28:24
of are very relatable and approachable
28:26
yeah and so i think it'll be a fun
28:28
a fun series i don't remember how many
28:30
episodes there are but probably six
28:32
knowing marvel yeah uh other fun
28:34
exciting things going on in the world of
28:36
entertainment is we found out that holy
28:38
moly the muppets are going to mini golf
28:41
that's good you should be proud of that
28:43
one did you see my title i did okay i
28:45
was proud of that yeah i was gonna say
28:46
you should be proud of that um i i
28:48
didn't quite hit my title there but you
28:49
know uh but that is right the holy moly
28:52
mini golf commentary show will have the
28:55
muppets
28:56
in this season
28:59
is only three episodes long that's fine
29:02
what muppets do you want to see
29:03
specifically covering mini golf uh
29:05
kermit and gonzo i was gonna say i need
29:07
gonzo well i i actually want more i want
29:10
kermit gonzo miss picky fozzie
29:13
uh scooter helping out you just want to
29:14
name every muppet right now
29:16
he's about to name he's gonna set big
29:18
birds there for some reason kind of feel
29:20
like beaker and dr bunsen honey do you
29:22
need to be there just cause something
29:23
bad beaker needs to hurt get hurt um no
29:27
like i was like dream casting this i
29:29
think gonzo is a perfect choice
29:32
um i also be down he could be like on
29:34
the sidelines yeah because they have a
29:36
sideline reporter and i've watched like
29:38
one episode of this it was like
29:41
i wanted to like it more than i did
29:43
like it's it's kind of hard to watch but
29:46
um i i think part of it is because i
29:49
think of like how much better we could
29:50
do
29:52
well because they're leaning into the
29:54
national dog show thing like and they're
29:57
trying to make it funny but they know
29:59
they're trying to be funny
30:00
and i feel like sometimes it's better
30:02
for just putting people who aren't funny
30:05
and actually take it seriously and just
30:07
go
30:08
and i think that would be funnier but i
30:11
also think uh rizzo would be a great
30:13
choice also pepe
30:16
i i bet pepe will i'm sure pepe will be
30:18
there
30:19
um uncle deadly would be a fun uncle
30:22
dead
30:23
um
30:24
very funny bailey speaking of uncle
30:26
dudley specifically in the second to
30:28
last episode of the season's below the
30:30
frame um stephanie dibruzzo interviews
30:34
matt vogel on his own podcast um and he
30:36
talks about uncle deadly and he says
30:38
something so funny of uncle dudley
30:40
can be the straight man and he can also
30:43
be the comic relief depending on who
30:45
he's in a scene with
30:46
and he's like if i'm uh
30:49
with piggy
30:50
like i am
30:52
the straight man
30:53
um but depend like it was it was such a
30:56
fascinating thing um and bailey i
30:58
thought of you because
30:59
uncle deadly makes me think of you
31:01
uh fawzi would be a very good
31:03
commentator by the way we're in geek's
31:04
corner plus now welcome a minute ago
31:06
welcome to geek's corner plus
31:10
um another one that could be really
31:12
funny is statler and waldorf
31:14
because you don't even need anybody else
31:15
you can just have them it's true
31:17
commenting on the whole thing um and
31:18
that i think would be amazing
31:21
yeah i don't know
31:22
um i don't want waldo c graphic there
31:26
why not
31:30
i mean he might be as obnoxious as the
31:32
gulf
31:34
maybe if he's the golf ball
31:36
yeah you don't know um yeah i'm very
31:38
curious to see how this plays out and it
31:40
was kind of nebulous on what exactly
31:42
they're in so i don't know if they're in
31:43
all three episodes or is it like one
31:46
episode and hopefully it's the first one
31:49
like it'll be interesting to see how
31:50
that plays i'm just always excited with
31:52
more muppet stuff i agree completely all
31:55
right our final topic of the night is it
31:57
is st patrick's day in just a couple of
31:59
days and what does that mean katie
32:02
it means food it means green corn dogs
32:05
disgusting let's get that away from me
32:07
this is what you can get on st patrick's
32:10
day at the disneyland resort
32:13
would you eat it
32:15
do you want my honest answer i would
32:17
yeah i'd eat it
32:19
i don't i don't know it's just a corn
32:20
dog but it's dyed green that's it i just
32:23
have to wonder how much dye do they have
32:25
to put in that thing to make it green oh
32:27
you will regret it within 12 hours i
32:29
guarantee you that you'll regret eating
32:31
that much food dye
32:32
um it's just the look of it is so icky
32:37
like
32:38
and then like i dip my corn dogs and
32:40
ketchups like adding that to the
32:42
adding that to the mix
32:45
the mustard would actually be better in
32:47
some ways
32:51
so then here's my question what's your
32:53
question you have some irish in you
32:56
like 95 percent yeah is some irish yeah
32:59
what is your favorite irish dish
33:02
my favorite irish dish
33:05
uh
33:07
i do love a shepherd's pie type of that
33:09
is type of deal yeah i'm not i don't
33:12
like corned beef and cabbage which
33:14
technically is borderline not irish it's
33:16
it's actually it's an irish-american
33:18
thing it's irish adopted yeah um when we
33:22
immigrated to america yeah um
33:24
i will be having corn beef and cabbage
33:26
all right my my uh
33:29
my grandfather on my mom's side which
33:31
funny enough is not where any of my
33:32
irish shrub comes from it's where my
33:34
polish comes from um but he loved corned
33:36
beef and cabbage um and i just i just i
33:39
like it the one time of year and i love
33:41
the corned beef sandwiches afterwards
33:43
that's better like i i think that's just
33:46
one of the best things on the planet um
33:48
and uh and then i also love watching
33:51
darby o'gill and the little people i've
33:52
never seen it uh that's what you do is
33:54
you come home from work you put on darby
33:56
you'll guilt a little people you start
33:58
cooking your corned beef and cabbage you
34:00
know whether you're doing it in pressure
34:01
cooker or
34:03
um
34:04
slow cooker or whatever uh you can boil
34:06
it i guess uh
34:08
instant pot
34:09
i'm off on thursdays you can do that too
34:12
and then you watch
34:14
darby o'gill and the little people
34:16
and
34:18
you smell the corned beef and cabbage
34:20
and then you're good to go
34:23
right yeah there you go
34:26
green beer
34:27
and green beer uh better than a green
34:29
corn dog
34:32
yeah by far
34:34
that's
34:35
i don't know it's just it's so
34:39
visually upsetting
34:40
i think it's hilarious and like i know
34:43
i know
34:45
it's upsetting for me to look at um i
34:48
know like and then the question is does
34:50
it actually look like this oh no like
34:52
absolutely not because i'm betting
34:55
like is that really a hot dog in a
34:59
car around it
35:01
no
35:02
i almost guarantee you it's going to
35:04
look a much paler green or browner yeah
35:07
yeah um
35:10
i don't know i still might eat it like
35:12
don't get me wrong i still may do it are
35:15
you gonna go in you could do it you
35:17
could do a vlog
35:18
by myself yeah it could be like a five
35:20
minute vlog and all it is is you eating
35:23
that would be great if you want katie to
35:25
get a reservation for disneyland and go
35:26
eat a green corn dog
35:29
disney california adventure park but
35:31
it's at corndog castle oh i thought i
35:34
saw it was at the red truck too i
35:37
i wrote the article i don't remember
35:38
being at corndog castle i could be wrong
35:41
but um makes it even easier it's easier
35:43
to get them at home castle anyway if you
35:46
want me to do that
35:50

35:51
