This
is
Lynns,
this
is
Russ
and
we're
married.
Are
we?
Yep.
Since
2013.
We're
the
hosts
of
the
Unfiltered
Union.
Podcast
where
we
discuss
popular
headlines
and
interview
interesting
people.
Our
opinions
may
vary,
but
we
will
never
censor
our
guests
or
our
viewpoints.
Welcome
to
the
Unfiltered
Union.
Taxes.
That's
what
we're
going
to
talk
about.
Well,
just
a
reminder.
Don't.
Don't
do
your
taxes.
No.
The
government.
Oh,
oops.
You
might
have
to
edit
that
part
out.
Yeah,
probably.
No.
So
taxes
are
due
and
when
this
episode
posts
on
April
15th.
Yeah.
Monday.
Tomorrow.
Yeah.
So
if
you
haven't
filed
your
taxes,
don't.
This
is
not
financial
advice.
Right.
Just
a
reminder
here
looking
out
for
you.
But
ask
for
an
extension
if
you.
Need
it
or
don't.
But
do
is
what
we're
saying.
Don't
go
to
jail.
Exactly
that.
Yeah.
It
be
a
white
collar
jail.
Right.
Maybe
taxation
is
theft
and
so
is
inflation.
That's
how
we're
starting
today.
Yeah.
You
want
to
talk
about
taxes?
So
I'm
talking
about
taxes.
It
was
just
a
reminder.
Trying
to
do
a
service
here.
Just
a
reminder
that
the
federal
government
is
a
scam.
Great.
You
want
to
dive
into
that
at
all?
Why
not?
Okay.
They
suck.
All
your
money
is
being
spent
on
things
that
you
most
likely
don't
really
agree
with.
Like
war,
for
example.
Great
segue.
World
War
three.
It's
coming.
I
agree.
I
think
we're
on
the
cusp
at
this
point.
Yeah.
Iran
just
attacked
Israel
with
drones
and
missiles
and
I
think
most
of
them
got
intercepted.
But
it's
still
an
attack.
Yeah.
At
this
point
it
seems
like
everyone
in
the
Middle
east
is
going
at
it.
Oh
yeah.
And
you
know
who's
going
to
be
in
the
middle
of
it?
The
US
and
the
uk.
And
the
uk.
We're
going
to
be
the
ring
leader
of
war.
We
got
to
fund
the
military
industrial
complex
and
get
all
those
big
companies
paid,
which
is
awful.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This
actually
wasn't
going
to
be
my
next
topic,
but
since
we're
here,
I
might
as
well.
Right.
So
Israel
conflict
has
spread
to
16
nations
and
the
Biden
administration
says
there's
no
war.
I
ran.
I'm
reading
an
article
from
the
Intercept
and
it
says
Iran's
retaliatory
strikes
on
Israel
highlight
an
American
led
regional
war
spanning
Iraq,
Jordan,
Saudi
Arabia
and
others.
A
bunch
of
these
countries
are
now
on
the.
What
is
that?
Heightened
threat.
Yeah.
List.
Like
the
travel
list.
Oh,
yeah.
Right,
right,
right.
So
advisory.
Right.
It's
escalating
at
this
point
for
sure.
People
are
being
warned
not
to
travel
to
these
areas.
And
it's
what
I
think
we've
been
saying
for
a
while
now.
It's
been
kind
of
clear
that
this
was
building.
Yeah,
for
sure.
And
now
we're
at
a
point
where
more
are
getting
involved,
more
things
are
happening,
and
we'll
see
what
happens.
Side.
In
the
West,
I
have
concerns
because
an
attack
from
Iran
on
Israel
is
a
pretty
big
deal.
It's
not,
at
this
point,
it's
not
a
terrorist
organization.
I
mean,
you
can.
Some
people
do
consider
Iran
a
terrorist
organization,
but
it's
a
country.
Right.
That's
awful.
Yeah.
And
what
is
this
going
to
spin
into?
Well,
what
is
it
already
spun
into?
Yeah,
but
we're
not
involved
in
a
way
that.
But
we
are.
We
could
be,
but
we
are,
though.
And
I
think
that's
the
one
thing
that's
bothering
me
again,
Like,
I
can,
I
need
to
do
more
fact
checking
of
this
article.
But
everything
that
it's
saying
in
this
article
is
essentially,
we're
already
there,
we're
already
helping
Israel.
We
already
have
resources
in
the
area.
We
are
already
doing
our
own
counteractions.
Like,
there's
a
lot
going
on
that
we're
involved
in
already.
So
with
all
of
this
that's
in
there,
that's
happening,
and
the
fact
that
they're
saying
that
we're.
There
is
no
war.
It's
like.
Well,
Joe
Biden
also
said
that
Trump
was
going
to
be
the
one
to
go
to
war
with
Iran.
Yeah.
I
almost
had
a
reaction.
Like,
I
saw
it,
maybe
he
should
have.
But
I,
I
think
we
get
involved.
It's
World
War
iii.
We
stick,
we,
we
stick
our
noses
in
places
that
we
shouldn't.
And
to
be
honest
with
you,
I
think
that's
one
of
them.
I
agree.
I
mean,
the.
We're
not
world
police.
No
matter
what
that
movie
said.
Team
America,
World
Police.
We're
not
that.
I
mean,
we
shouldn't
be.
We
are
right
now,
but
we
shouldn't
be.
But
this
is
the
reason
why
people
hate
our
guts.
Right.
We
go
in
there,
we
try
to
spread
whatever
we're
trying
to
spread
or
take
resources,
and
it
turns
into
a
shit
show.
Yep.
We
get
terrorist
attacks
because
radicalized
people
that
hate
America
try
to
attack
us.
Right.
But
why
wouldn't
you
when
we're
over
there
drone
striking
people.
Right.
You
know
what
I'm
saying?
Like,
we're
not
even
at
war.
Technically,
we're
not
at
war.
Technically,
it.
Doesn't
Congress
have
to
declare
war?
I
think
so.
Okay,
well,
they
haven't.
Right.
And
yet
we're
over
there
dropping
Bombs
and
killing
innocent
people
and
I
mean,
yeah,
we
might
be
killing
bad
people,
but
we're
not
at
war.
We
shouldn't
be
doing
that.
Right.
Unless
we
are
full
on
at
war.
Let's
stop.
I
agree,
but
I
think
this
is
going
to
be
another
one
of
those
things
where
we
don't
know.
They
won't
tell
us.
Of
course.
They're
not
until
it
gets
to
a
point
where
it's
no
choice.
Right.
I
don't
know.
It's.
It's.
It's
scary
to
me.
I
agree.
Because.
Yeah.
Of
the
potential
for
how
big
this
could
get.
Yeah.
Who's
backing
Iran?
You
know,
is
it
China?
Is
it
Russia?
Is
it
both?
Is
it
both?
I'm
pretty
sure
they're
kind
of.
They're
not
super
tight,
but
they're
tight
enough
to
where
they
would
probably
back
each
other
up
in
a
war
with
us.
Yep.
And
then
we
have
fallout.
But
then
we're
also
spreading
our
resources
to
Ukraine,
which
it's
like
really.
The
segue
there.
I
know.
We
have
fallout.
Yeah.
The
show.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But
also,
what
could
potentially
happen
from
all
this?
Right.
Based
on
the
video
games.
The
show
on
Amazon
that
just
released
last
week.
Week
on
the
10th
or
11th,
I
don't
know.
But
we
binged
it
regardless.
We
did.
We
are
done.
And
what
did
you
think?
I
was
thoroughly
entertained,
I
will
admit.
I
don't
know.
I
feel
like
there
are
still
a
lot
of
plot
holes
missing.
Like,
they
didn't
answer
all
the
questions.
But
it's
season
one,
right?
Yeah.
So
you
got
to
give
it
time.
There's
still
world
building,
story
building,
but
overall
it
was
pretty
good.
I
liked
it.
Do
you
think
it
stayed
true
to
the
video
game?
Yes,
in.
In
certain
ways,
yes.
But
I
think
it
was
entertaining
and
I
think
a
fan
of
the
games
will
really
like
it,
but
I
also
think
people
that
aren't
into
the
games,
like
yourself,
will
like
it.
Agreed.
It
was.
Do
you
feel
like
I
would
like
it
more
because
I
don't
know
the
games
than
people
who
would?
I
know
I
was
more
interested
to
kind
of
get
your
take
on
it.
I
liked
it
regardless.
Just
because
seeing
a
video
game
that
I
played
or
a
video
game
series
that
I
played
come
to
life
was
really
cool.
And
it
was
kind
of.
It
was
brutal.
It
was.
It
was
a
little
bit.
It
was
almost
on
the
edge
of
being
too
brutal
for
me.
I
mean,
I
know
the
games
are.
They're
pretty
messed
up
too,
but,
oh,
my
goodness,
there.
It
was
graphic.
I
feel
like
a
lot
of
the
shows
that
we
watched,
like,
back
in
the
early
2000
and
tens.
Right.
Really
set
the
scene
for
how
brutal
you
can
go.
Oh,
my
goodness.
Like
Game
of
Thrones,
Game
of
Thrones,
Walking
Dead.
I
mean,
any
zombie
flick,
you
know,
in
the
2000s,
I
think
it
really
has
escalated,
in
my
opinion,
with
how
far
they're
willing
to
go
in
the
gross
factor.
Right.
I
don't
like
all
that.
I
think
it's.
It's
unnecessary.
Gore,
to
me,
can
be
too
much.
I
agree.
Like
Game
of
Thrones,
for
example.
The
torture
stuff,
it
was.
Yeah,
that
was
hard.
I
know
they're.
They're
doing
it
to
make
you
uncomfortable,
because
that
is
uncomfortable,
but
it's
still
sickening.
Yep.
Gore
and
torture
are
not
my
thing.
We
stopped
watching
Walking
Dead
because
of
that.
Right.
We
literally
cut
it
off.
We're
like,
all
right,
we're
done.
I'm
over
it.
How
far
are
they
willing
to
go?
And
they
just
kept
going.
Yeah.
Right.
And
I
guess
the
other
reason
why
we
kind
of
stopped
watching
Walking
Dead
was
because
of
the
fact
that
it
was
like
the
same
thing
over
and
over
again.
Felt
very
repetitive.
Okay.
Towards
the
end.
Yeah.
Killed
this
big
bad.
We
move
in.
We
have
this
small
slice
of
peace.
Then
another
big
bad
comes
in.
Yep.
Now
we
have
another
slice.
We
beat
him.
Now
we
have
another
slice.
I
feel
like
with
Fallout,
so
the
way,
to
me
that
the
series
played
out
Right.
Is
in
episode
one,
they
introduced
us
to
three
character
arcs.
Episode
two,
we
got
another
one
or
two
characters.
They
were
more
minor.
They
didn't
have
a
life
in
the
rest
of
the
show.
But
the
idea
that
you
can
have
character
arcs
like
that
introduced
and
then
follow
them
through
the
season,
I
think
they
could
do
a
lot
of
that,
because
they
could.
From
what
you.
Right.
From
what
you
said,
you
picked
your
character
in
the
game.
Yes.
And
no
character's
the
same.
An
RPG
with
a
lot
of
customization.
You
can
go
in
there
and
be
a
freaking
diplomat,
like,
put
points
into
speech
or
whatever
it
is
and
sway
people
to
your
cause.
Right.
Or
you
can
join
the
factions
that
are
in
the
show.
It's.
It's
nuts.
And
it's
cool
because
it's
a
Bethesda
game
which
is
based
in
Maryland.
Not
that
we
have
any
claim
to
that
area.
No.
But
it's.
Right.
It's
close.
It
was
close
to
our
previous
home.
Yes.
Where
we
used
to
live,
but.
And
they
were
always
great
games.
But
I
will
say
I
think
their
latest
game,
Starfield,
is
some
shite.
We're
just
gonna
go
through
their
games.
Well,
it.
It
just
was
a
big
letdown.
It
wasn't
bad
by
any
means.
It
just
was
not
their
standard.
Their
standard
is
really
high.
You
mean
the
storyline,
the
characters,
everything.
All
of
it.
Yeah,
it
seemed
rushed.
Not
a
fan.
Interesting.
Well,
what
about
Dune
Doom?
Dune?
What
are
you
talking
about?
Another
game
going
full
on
games
now.
I
like
Dune
2
a
lot.
Yeah.
I
think
I'm
not
as
impressed
with
it
as
I
am
with
Fallout.
The
series,
obviously,
series
versus
a
movie
is
kind
of
different,
really.
You
know,
apples,
oranges.
But
cinematography,
amazing.
And
Dune,
too,
it's
nuts.
So
I
actually
had
to
go
back
and
rewatch
the
first
Dune.
Yeah,
it
took
us
like
six
hours.
Well,
you
know,
watching
Dune
2,
I
had
to
go
back
to
watch
the
first
one
in
order
to
feel
like
I
could
watch
the
second
one.
And
sure,
it
helped,
but
the
story
is
really
big.
Dune
is
huge.
Right.
If
you
try
and
dive
deep
into
all
of
it,
it's
a
big
story.
Almost
like
Game
of
Thrones,
right?
You
have
all
these
houses
and
then
you
have
the
one
king
emperor
person.
And
I
don't
know,
it's
just.
There's
so
much
that
I
think
they
don't
go
into.
They
can't.
I
understand,
but
if
you're
going
to
do
it,
then
do
it
right.
But
they
can't,
because
it's
a
film.
I
understand.
But
if
you're
going
to
do
it,
do
it
right.
So
would
it
be
better
as
an
adaptation
on
tv?
So
episode
after
episode,
kind
of
like
Game
of
Thrones?
Possibly.
There's
no
way
Game
of
Thrones
could
be
a
movie.
Right.
It's
too
much
that
happens.
So
if
you're
gonna
do
something
that
has
such
depth
to
it,
you
gotta
do
it
to
the
full
extent.
Because
all
of
this,
like,
surface
level
stuff,
you
don't
feel,
see,
understand
the
full
motive
behind
everything.
No.
Right.
Because
it
was
even
hard
to.
I
had
to
explain
a
lot
of
the
Dune,
the
first
movie
to
you,
again,
while
you
watched
it.
Right.
Like,
okay,
what
does
Spice
do?
It's
like
it
essentially
makes
them
tripping,
you
know,
but
gives
them,
like,
superhuman
abilities
to
make
sure
their
ship
doesn't
crash
while
they're
traveling
in
space.
Right.
Makes
space
travel
possible.
Right.
So
it's
the
most
valuable
thing
in
the
galaxy,
whatever.
But
I
liked
it
a
lot.
I
thought
it
was
amazing.
The
graphics
were
freaking
nuts.
The
story
was
good.
Obviously
it
was
good,
but
I
can't
wait
for.
I
hope
number
three
comes
out.
Yeah.
The
choreography
for
the
fight
scenes
was
nuts.
They
did
a
really
good
job.
I
will
say
it
was
a
really
good
job.
But
again,
I
feel
like
if
you're
gonna
do
something
like
that,
you
need
to
go
deep
because
it's
is
deep.
So
again,
the
idea
of
motive,
like
it's
his
house.
If
you
think
of
House
Targaryen,
you
think
of
these
big
houses,
right?
That's
heritage.
That's
his
whole
family
line.
Right.
So
I
mean,
there's
a
lot
more
to
it
than
just,
you
know,
he
got
reassigned
and
then
boom,
you
know,
it's
like,
I
don't
know,
there's
more
to
the
story
and
it's
very
surface
level
and
I
can
feel
the
very
superficialness
of
it.
Yeah.
I
mean,
the
emperor
was
playing
a
game
game.
And
there
was
more
to
his
game
than
just
reassigning
that
family.
Right.
And
I
will
say.
Spoiler
alert.
Oh
God.
I'm
just
gonna
talk
about
the
last
scene
for
a
second.
Spoiler
alert.
If
you
don't
want
to
hear
it,
turn
it
off.
Let's
fast
forward.
Do
something.
But
the
last
scene,
the
main
character,
Paul,
right.
He
is
essentially
becoming
the
person
that
he's
being
pushed
to
be,
right?
Yes.
So
you
can
see
it,
right.
It's
almost
like
the
two
sided
personality,
whoever.
When
he's
looking
at
Zendaya,
I
can't
think
of
her
name
in
the
movie
right
now,
but
when
he's
looking
at
her,
you
know,
I
will
always
love
you.
And
then
he
turns
around
and
he
flips
his
mask,
right.
And
now
he's
the
one,
the
prophet,
the
one
that's
gonna
save
them
all.
He
tells
the
emperor's
daughter,
like,
you're
gonna
marry
me.
Right.
It's
the
idea
of
his
two
personalities.
And
again,
I
don't
think
they
go
deep
enough
for
us
to
understand
the
gravity
of
that.
No.
I
don't
know.
I
think
it's
good
for
a
movie
adaptation.
But
I
do
think
that
you
do
yourself
a
service
by
reading
the
books.
I
didn't
read
the
books,
but
I
read
a
lot
of.
A
pretty
in
depth
breakdown.
Yeah.
Because
I'm
not
going
to
read
the
books.
I'm
just
not.
They're
too
much,
though.
Like
Game
of
Thrones
was
the
same
thing.
I
started
to
read
Game
of
Thrones
and
I'm
like
this
thing,
it's
too
complicated
for
me.
I'm
smooth
brain,
huh?
I'm
dumb
and
I'm
okay
with
it.
I
need
a
knowledge
base
of
how
everything
intertwines
and
interwebs
and
yeah,
yeah,
it's
too
much.
But
that
giving
me
a
little
bit
more
backstory
by
reading
through
like
a
wiki
type
page
was.
Was
kind
of
helpful.
Yeah.
I
recommend
it.
Sticking
to
screens
right
now,
on
screen,
if
you
haven't
watched
the
new
Bluey
yet,
so
the
first
Bluey.
The
first
new
episode
that
came
out.
Ghost
Basket.
Ghost
Basket
again.
Spoilers.
If
you
haven't
watched
any
of
the
Blueies
yet.
We
are
Bluey
parents,
big
time.
We
love
that
show.
Love,
love,
love.
Yes.
Our
daughter
is
nine,
so
technically
she's
not
totally
invested
in
it
as
if
she
were
when
she
was
younger.
I
think
when,
you
know,
a
few
years
ago,
she
was
really
into
it.
Yeah.
It's
a
five
year
old
show
and
she's
been
watching
it
for
all
five
years.
Exactly.
I
think
she's
into
it
so
much
now
because
we
are.
It's
an
emotional
attachment
now.
It's
a
family
thing.
Like
we
do
it
as
a
family.
Yeah.
So
it's
not
so
much
that,
you
know,
she
could
go
without
it.
She
wouldn't
care.
I
don't
know.
I
don't
know.
I
don't
know.
After
that,
this
last
episode,
the
sign.
Right.
Spoilers.
So
Ghostbust
ends
and.
Oh
God,
the
healers
are
selling
their
house
and
ever.
I
don't.
I
felt
it.
Why
are
we
so
attached
to
that
house?
To
the.
To
everything.
But
I
kind
of
want
to
talk
about
that
for
a
second
though,
because
they
sold.
They
had
a
for
sale
sign.
Right.
And
the
whole
thing
about
this
was
the
dad
bandit
got
a
new
job
and
it
was
going
to
be
in
a
different
city.
They
had
to
move.
They
were
selling
their
house.
Right.
When
we
decided
to
move
to
Florida,
I
don't
think
we
had
that
like
at
all.
It
wasn't
the
house.
It
wasn't
even
the
town
or
the
state.
Like
by.
Obviously
it
was
the
family
that
we
were
going
to
miss.
Right.
That
was
our
lack
of
a
better
term
pain
point.
Right.
That's
what
we
were
going
to
miss.
The
idea
that
we
are
attached
to
a
cartoon
house
more
than
we
were
to
our
own.
Yeah.
I
didn't
really
care.
It
was
like
you
said,
it
wasn't
the
house.
It
was
more
of
us
venturing
into
the
unknown
that
was
kind
of
concerning.
For
sure.
I
had
big
concerns
about
that.
So
I
could
relate.
We
moved
down
here
with
nothing,
with
jobs.
That's
it.
Yeah.
And
we
didn't
have
a
house.
We.
We
didn't
know
what
school
our
kid
was
going
to.
We
hadn't
even
completely
sold
our
house
in
Virginia
yet.
It
was
on
the
market.
But
we
had
jobs
that
started
like
a
month
after
we
got
them.
Right.
So
we
had.
We
had
very
little
time
and
we
stayed
in
an
Airbnb.
All
that
was
what
was
scary
to
me.
It
was
like
we're
going
down
there
without
a
place
to
live.
Really?
Yeah.
We're
going
to
live
in
an
Airbnb.
And
that
was
super
expensive.
Not
recommended.
I
mean,
it
was
a
nice
spot
for
us
at
the
time.
But,
yes,
that
was
more
of
my
pain
point.
We
had
to
kind
of
move
quick,
for
sure.
But,
yeah,
attachment
to
Bluey's
house,
I
felt
it
too.
And
I
think.
I
think
it's
less
about
the
house,
kind
of
like
with
us.
And
it
was
more
about
her
friends
and
family.
Right.
Because
she
was
moving
away
from
all
those
kids
at
Calypso
School.
And
it
was
like,
no,
I
don't
want
her
to
leave
Rusty.
Her
neighbors.
Right.
Her.
Well,
it's.
And
all
the
memories
that
they
had
in
the
house.
We
watched
all
these
memories,
but
we.
Had
memories
in
our
previous
home.
And
I.
Those
are
up
here
in
my
head.
Well,
and
in
photos.
Yeah,
but
that.
I
did.
I
did
not
care
about
that.
But
I
think,
like
I
said,
I
think
the
big
issue
is
all
those
friends
and
family
members.
Are
we
going
to
see
them
again?
Right.
That
was
all
the
people
we
got
attached
to
that
surrounded
them.
Yeah.
That's
not
Bluey.
Bingo.
Mom
and
dad.
Well.
And
it
wasn't
clear
at
the
episode
of
Ghost
Basket
that
they
were
coming
back.
Like,
are
they
moving
and
the
show's
over,
right?
Yeah.
I
got
everybody.
News
and
social
media
spinning.
Uhhuh.
Everybody
was
like,
oh,
my
God,
they're
going
to
cancel
Bluey.
They're
done.
It
got
so
bad
and
so,
like,
pronounced
on
social
media
that
the
creators
of
Bluey
and
the
producers
came
out
on
social
media.
It's
like,
no,
we're
just
going
on
hiatus
for
a
while.
We're
just
taking
a
break.
53
episodes
later.
Yeah,
we
need
a
break.
We'll
be
back.
Right?
So
calm
down.
I
don't
know
how
long
the
break's
gonna
be,
but
they'll
be
back.
Right?
I
believe
them.
I
believe
it
more
now
than
before
because
when
they
showed
again.
Spoiler
alerts.
Bandit
pulling
up
the
for
sale
sign.
They're
not
selling
their
house
anymore.
Like,
okay,
yeah.
So
the.
So
the
latest
episode
was
all
about
the
sign.
It's
called
the
Sign.
The
Sign.
Yep,
the
for
sale
sign.
And
how
Bluey
was
distraught
about
this
for
sale
sign
while
Bingo's
over
there
oblivious.
That's
the.
I
love
that
part.
But,
yeah,
it
was.
It
was
a
solid
episode.
It
was
all
about
Frisky
and
Radley
getting
married
and
how
life
was
going
to
change
for
Frisky,
too.
And
Bradley
had
the
idea
of
moving
her
out
west,
whatever
that
means
in
Australia.
I
have
no
idea.
Probably
crocodiles
there,
too.
And
Blue
Ring,
octopus
and
all
kinds
of
scary.
That
we
got
in
Florida.
But
it
was
all
about,
like,
change.
And
is
change
always
a
good
thing?
And
it's.
I
mean,
it's
bluey.
So
there's
some
deep
ass
life
lesson
involved.
And
it
was
all
about,
like,
making
the
right
decision.
Yep.
And
Bandit,
I
loved
it
at
the
very
end,
their
house.
Eventually,
like,
they
had
it
sold.
Yep.
Contract
fell
through.
And
Bandit
went
from
being
kind
of
hesitant.
He
said
he
kept
questioning
himself,
am
I
making
the
right
decision?
And
to
me,
that's
a
red
flag.
If
you
have
to
question
it
like
that,
you're
probably
not
making
the
right
decision.
Yeah.
So
that
contract
fell
through,
and
he
goes
in
defiance
and
rips
the
sign
out
and
throws
it
in
the
middle
of
the
street.
And
then
Chili
runs
and
tackles
him
and
hugs
him.
She
didn't
want
to
move.
She
was
completely
clear
about
it.
Right.
But
she
loves
her
husband
and
supports
him.
Yeah.
And
he
got
a
good
job
and
he
wanted
to
do
it,
and
it
was
a
lot
of
money
and
all
that,
but.
And
then
it
ended
up
with
him
not
feeling
like
it
was
the
right
decision
and
he
gave
it
up.
It
was
solid.
Made
me
cry.
Well,
there's
one
more
episode
before
the
hiatus
happens.
Surprise.
Called
Surprise.
What's
that
going
to
be?
I
don't
know.
I
can't
handle
much
more.
Well,
Chili's
sister,
the
one
that
everyone
assumed
was
unable
to
have
kids.
She's
pregnant.
Yep.
Which
was.
Which
was
pretty
cool.
I
do
feel
like
that
episode,
the
sign
really,
like,
closed
a
lot
of
loops.
Yeah.
It
was
Bandit's
parents.
They
were
both
there.
Bandit's
parents.
The
butterfly,
Grandpa
Bob
Greenie.
I
mean,
there
was
a
lot
of
the
budgie
flying.
Like,
there
was
a
lot
of
callbacks
from
pre,
long,
long
ago
episodes.
I
think
that's
why
a
lot
of
people
thought
it
was
over.
I
know.
Because
they
were
like,
hey,
look
at
all
these
old
episodes.
Right.
Quirks
that
we're
bringing
back.
We're
saying
goodbye.
No,
they're
not.
Well,
the
idea
of
the
surprise,
what
do
we
think
it
could
be?
And
I
want
to
talk
about
it
again
and
see
if
we
were
right
or
wrong.
Well,
we
know
it's
not
going
to
be
them
going
away.
Right.
They're
not
moving.
I
don't
know.
Because
they
kind
of
gave
away
the
surprise
of
Brandy
being
pregnant.
Is
Chili
pregnant?
That's
what
a
lot
of
people
are
saying,
that
maybe
Chili's
pregnant.
I
don't
know
how
I'll
feel
about
that
either.
Why?
It's
gonna
change
the
dynamic.
So.
I
mean,
I
love
socks.
Don't
get
me
wrong,
Socks
was
the
cutest
character
ever.
Yeah.
Now
she's
talking.
I
know.
She's
growing
up
so
quick.
We
watched
her
grow
so
like,
I
don't
know.
It's
gonna
change
the
dynamic.
It'll
be
okay.
And
then
I
actually,
on
Instagram,
I
actually
posted.
I
was
like,
you
know,
the.
The
characters
are
gonna
age
while
they
take
a
break.
Their
voices
are
gonna
change.
Are
we
okay
with
this?
I
actually
had
a
lot
of
people
talking
me
down.
Like,
the
voices
have
already
changed.
It's
153
episodes.
They're
already
growing
up.
It's
okay.
Thank
you,
Internet.
I
wonder.
I
did
see.
This
is
another
spoiler
totally
unrelated
to
the
episode.
But
I
did
see
a.
An
image
of
grown
up
Bluey
with
a
kid.
And
I
don't
know
if
that's.
If
they're
doing
like
a
flash
forward
or.
I
hope
not.
Honestly,
I.
If
they
change
that
part
and
they
make
Bluey
an
adult
and
it's
like
following
the
kids,
her
kids.
It's
not
going
to
be
the
same.
No.
No,
it
won't.
It'll
make
me
very
sad.
Old
Grandpa
Bandit.
That
wouldn't
be
any
good.
I.
I
wouldn't
like
it.
I
mean,
I
don't
know.
I
think
I
would
either.
They
can
write.
They're
good
at
writing,
so
they
could
probably
make
it
work.
I
got
faith
in
them.
But
I
don't
know.
It
would
not
be
the
same.
It'd
be
like
moving
anyways.
Because
you're
gonna
have
to
get
to
know
all
new
characters
and
how
their
dynamics
are
and
how
they
interact.
Like,
you
know,
how
the
healer
family
interacts
with
all
their
neighbors
and
all.
Yes.
The
people
at
school.
So
for
them
to
move
on
and
if
it
is
Bluey
with
her
kids,
you're
gonna
have
to
relearn
all
that.
It's
like.
No,
give
me
my
comfort.
No,
in
that,
that
picture
that
I
saw
Bluey
as
an
adult,
her
child
looked
like
Jean
Luc.
That
kid?
Yeah.
So
this
be
kind
of
weird.
Why
would
we?
Well,
he
is
French.
It's
going
to
be
hard.
Yeah.
That.
I
don't
know
how
they
would
learn
French.
Right.
Does
she
learn
France?
France,
France.
Did
she
learn
the
Francis
new
shirt?
Did
she
learn
France?
Did
she
learn
France?
I'm
doing
it.
So,
Rama,
what
did
I
say?
Refurbishion
is
a
shirt
and
it
is
available
on
this
unfiltered
union
store.
Correct.
We're
gonna
have
a
new
one
coming
out
now.
Yes.
Did
she
learn
France?
Did
she
learn
France
from
Russ?
There
you
go.
New
shirt
quotes
all
day.
I
Love
it.
Okay,
so
I
want
to
ask
you
a
question.
Don't.
Have
you
ever
bought
anything
from
Sheen?
What
is
Sheen?
No,
I
bought
Teemu
stuff.
Teemu?
Yeah.
I
bought
a
fishing
rod
and
fishing
reel
from
Teemu.
I
was
just
curious.
So
Sheen
is
kind
of
like
a
Teemu
or
a
wish
or.
But
it's
for
clothes.
Any
of
those
fast
fashion.
Yes,
Fast
fashion
apps,
companies.
So
there's
a
new
documentary
out
on
Max.
It
used
to
be
called
HBO
Max,
now
it's
Max.
Is
it
about
child
labor
and
stuff?
No,
it's
about
a
woman
named
Brandy
Hellville
in
the
cult
of
fast
fashion.
There
it
is.
And
essentially
it's
all
about
how
she
took
things
from
Sheen
from
fast
fashion
and
her
claim
to
fame.
Right.
She
got
famous
off
of
this.
And
in
the
news
has
been
all
the
bad
things
about
Sheen.
Right.
So
she
got
famous
off
of
this
and
they're
trying
to
expose
and
are
exposing
the
bad
things,
the
drawbacks
about
fast
fashion.
So
Shein
has
faced
allegations
of
forced
labor
and
unsafe
working
conditions
in
the
past.
However,
the
companies
denied
it
in
a
statement
to
global
news.
But
a
lot
of
people
think
that
the
reason
why
Shein
is
a
thing,
it's
a
big
deal.
While
it's
so
famous
and
popular
and
people
keep
buying
shit
from
it,
it's
tapped
into
the
fast
paced,
paced,
ever
changing
trends
that
appeal
massively
to
the
young
audience
who's
looking
for
affordability
and
virility.
Viral.
Viral
it.
Viral.
Viral.
Virality.
That
one.
Is
it
virality?
I
don't
know.
One
of
the
two.
So
I've
never
bought
anything
from
Sheen.
I
have,
I
did
do
wish
a
long
time
ago.
I'm
like,
2016,
maybe
you
buy
one.
Of
them
three
headed
dogs.
It's
dog
meat
from
Fallout.
No,
he's
a
good
boy.
Okay.
But
the
idea
that
Sheen
is
so
popular
is
so
famous
is
such
a
big
deal.
If
you
think
about,
you
know,
everything
on
TikTok
or
everything
on
Instagram,
like
all
the
people
who
are
in
fashion,
like
they're
looking
for
the
latest
trends
and
Sheen
can
pump
them
out
quick.
Yeah,
but
you
think
about
it
too.
It's
not
just
Sheen.
Amazon
is
all
about
quickness
and
cheapness.
Sheen
is
a
seller
on
Amazon.
I,
I
know.
I'm
just
saying
though,
Sheen
is
cheap,
right?
It
tends
to
be
pretty
cheap
and
economical.
People
are
going
for
that.
Economical
in
the
sense
that
it's
cheap
for
the
buyer.
That's
what
I
mean.
Yeah,
that's
what
I
mean.
It's
cheap
for
you
to
buy
a
piece
of
clothing
from
Sheen.
Right.
Economical
in
the
sense
that
it
makes
the
company
a
lot
of
money.
Not
economical
in
the
way
that
it
contributes
to
an
economy
in
whatever
area.
No,
that
it
is
producing.
It's
probably
contributing
to
China.
Right.
Isn't
it
a
Chinese
company?
I'm
not
sure,
but
it
is
definitely
Asia
based.
But
they
have
a
lot
of
suppliers
that
provide
to
them
so
that
they
can
sell,
right?
Yeah.
And
it's
terrible
trade.
Right.
And
I
get
that.
I
think
that's
messed
up.
But
you
can't
say
that
about
Sheen
and
not
say
that
about
Apple
or
any
of
those
other
companies
because
they
produce
their
phones
in
China
with
terrible
labor
practices.
Well,
and
then
what
does
Apple
say?
Right?
That
they
try
to
ensure
that
this
isn't
happening
and
they
visit
the
places
and
it's
like
the
reason
why,
though,
it's
so
popular.
Labor.
Exactly.
Right.
It's
terrible
conditions
and
cheap
labor.
I
just.
All
the
people
that
cry
about
that
kind
of
stuff.
It's
like,
what
kind
of
phone
do
you
have?
I
guarantee
you
your
phone
was
made
in
conditions.
But
what
phone
isn't
though?
I
know,
that's
the
problem.
It's
like
we.
I
think
you
and
I
have
said
it
multiple
times,
either
on
this
podcast
or
just
in
life,
right?
It's
talk
with
your
money.
Right.
If
you
have
something
against
your
morals,
talk
with
your
money.
But
a
pop
up
of
Sheen
just
went
into
a
Vancouver
shopping
mall
area
and
people
flocked
to
it.
Of
course
they
did.
It's
like
they
made
a
name
for
themselves.
You
know,
there's
problems
with
it
and
yet
it's
still
something
that
you
flock
towards.
Right.
And
like
you
said,
iPhones
are
the
same
thing.
Apple's
the
same
thing.
Like,
if
we
were
to
talk
with
our
money,
like,
what
would
you
do
instead?
There's
not
really
any
options.
Unless
you
crazy
to
me,
I
know.
There'S
no
real
American
made
cell
phone
that's
good
out
there.
It's
crazy.
Just
because
Apple,
it
says
on
the
back,
designed
in
California.
It
ain't
made
there
though.
Right.
That's
for
sure.
It's
wild.
It's.
It's
super
messed
up.
And
I
don't
know,
I
guess,
what
do
you
do,
right?
You
go
without
a
phone.
Well,
do
you
go
without,
you
know,
the
latest
trends
and
clothes?
Do
you.
You
know,
there's
all
these
things
that
you
think
that
you
need,
but
do
we
need
any
of
this?
Well,
I
guess
the
problem
too
is
inflation
has
taken
a
lot
of
people's
spending
power
away.
True.
So
Sheen
is
capitalizing
on
it
by
having
cheap
stuff.
Same
thing
with
Amazon.
Yeah,
they
undersell
stuff
they,
they
take
losses
on
a
lot
of
items,
but
they
make
up
for
it
in
volume
in
prime
membership
and
prime
memberships
selling
you
on
other
stuff.
It's
nuts.
Yep.
And
I'm
guilty
of
buying
things
through
Amazon
when
I
could
be
supporting
my
local
companies.
Agreed.
But
everybody's
guilty
of
that.
But
the
problem
is,
is
inflation
has
taken
a
lot
of
our
spending
power
away.
Right.
I
go
to
the
grocery
store
and
I
have
to
spend
$375
a
week
instead
of
200.
Yeah.
Instead
of
200
or
less.
Yeah.
Those
were
the
days,
weren't
they?
And
that's
what's
crazy
though
is
that
is
not
that
long
ago
that
we
were
only
spending
175
to
200
bucks
a
week.
Yep.
It
is
nuts.
Agreed.
But
places
like
Sheen
and
they're
just
going
to
keep
raking
in
that
dough
because
people
need
clothes.
But
do
you,
I
mean,
like
as
much.
You
will
go
to
jail
if
you
go
outside
naked.
True.
But
as
much
as
people
buy,
like
over
consumerism
is
a
thing.
Absolutely.
No,
there's,
of
course
people
are
going
to
overuse
it
and
buy
way
too
much
stuff.
There's
like,
oh,
it's
a
$5
shirt.
Instead
of
me
buying
one
$25
shirt,
I'll
buy
five
$5
shirts.
Like,
no,
you
only
need
one
shirt.
Right.
Don't
do
it.
But
I
do
think,
I
do
think
that
inflation
has
messed
a
lot
of
people
up
and
they've
had
to
change
their
habits.
It
is
ridiculous.
Well,
along
with
habits,
how
much
water
do
you
think
you
drink
in
a
day?
Not
enough.
How
much
water
do
you
think
you
need
to
drink
in
a
day?
I
need
to
drink.
Isn't
it
your
body
weight
in
ounces?
Almost.
No,
I
thought
it
was
close.
So
if
you
weigh
150
pounds,
you
have
to
drink
150
ounces.
Close.
So
there
are
a
couple
of
studies
that
are
happening
and
what
they're
saying
right
now
is
that
you
might
need
to
drink
more
water
based
upon
your
activity
level,
on
how
often
you
exercise,
if
your
job's
active,
as
well
as
if
you
live
in
a
hot
climate
or
if
you're
pregnant
or
breastfeeding.
Now,
if
those
things
apply
to
you,
then
if
you
are
a
man,
you
should
drink
up
to
125
ounces
a
day.
And
if
you're
a
woman,
it's
91
ounces.
Now,
there's
a
lot
of
variability
to
that.
Right.
You're
supposed
to
drink
when
you're
thirsty,
drink
a
glass
before
meals
and
between
meals.
And
then
it
says
if
you
can
stick
to
eight
glasses
a
day,
you
will
at
least
feel
hydrated.
And
then
the
old
rule
of
drinking
half
your
body
weight
in
ounces
is
a
good
goal
to
have.
I
thought
it
was
your
like
1oz
per
pound
of
body
weight.
That's
interesting.
Yes.
So
the
rule
of
half
your
body
weight
is
a
good
rule
of
thumb,
but
it
doesn't
take
into
account
different
body
sizes
as
well
as
your
thirst
level
of
thirst,
your
climate
and
your
activity
level.
Well,
that
my
activity
level
is
zero
or
it's
negative.
So
does
that
mean
I
don't
have
to
drink
water
at
all?
No,
because
you
are
thirsty
throughout
the
day,
are
you
not?
Oh,
I
just
drank
coffee.
Let's
just
keep
adding
caffeine.
Yeah,
coffee
is
good
for
you.
Jitters,
jitters
and
shitters.
There's
another
shirt.
No,
I
won't
do
that
one.
That's
inappropriate.
Oh,
to
wear.
I'll
make
it
a
youth
shirt
so
all
the
kids
can
wear
that.
Going
to
school.
Smart.
Love
you.
Bye.
