Welcome to the Saints that Serve, podcast where, each week, your hosts dive into the crossroads of faith, culture and the unknown.

Speaker 1: 0:14

Christ is Lord and the kingdom is now. We are the Saints that Serve. Hey everybody, welcome to the Saints that Serve podcast. That's the Saints that Serve podcast, With your hosts I'm Johnny. And I'm Jairus and we got some announcements for you In this episode 33 of the podcast Heck yeah, baby Episode 33. Hey, what announcements do you have for this episode?

Speaker 2: 1:00

Fun fact, this Friday, May 2nd, we're going to be doing another live stream worship night, because we did that first one and it just went so well. Yeah, we had a really good time, so the guitar will be tuned up with new strings.

Speaker 1: 1:17

That's right, because you broke the strings on it last time.

Speaker 2: 1:21

Right on your last song yeah, dude, the providence of god showed through that last song. At the very end of it, string broke you literally on your last strum too.

Speaker 1: 1:30

It wasn't in the middle of the song, you were literally going like ending out the song.

Speaker 2: 1:35

Yep, and the string broke and it popped and it was like god was like you guys are going out with a bang, here we go boo anyways. So yeah, we're gonna do that again and it's gonna be this Friday, may 2nd. It's going to start off. The live stream will start at 6.30. Mm-hmm, and then the music will start at 7. Right, but we'll be in the chat and there'll be a countdown. You know a 30-minute countdown at 6.30. So make sure that you are tuning in and just joining the conversation, joining the worship time.

Speaker 1: 2:04

And just be prepared for a great worship night.

Speaker 2: 2:07

Yep. Well, as, like we did last time, we'll be posting updates throughout the week on social media and we'll be sharing links to the live stream day of and. Fun fact, we need to get a couple more people to like our Facebook page for us to live stream on Facebook.

Speaker 1: 2:27

I believe, as of the airing of this episode, we need like maybe 12 or 13 peoples.

Speaker 2: 2:34

Yeah, it was not a lot. They like require 100, I think.

Speaker 1: 2:39

Which makes no sense. It's like hey, you got to know at least 100 people to reach out to people.

Speaker 2: 2:45

No, you got it. It's like hey, you got to know at least 100 people to reach out to people. No, you got it's not you know them, it's they've got. You've got to have 100 people that like your page.

Speaker 1: 2:51

That was kind of the joke I was going for, but you know, well, we need 15 people to like our or follow us on the Saints that Serve podcast Facebook page Correct. So if you're listening and you say what is that? That means you're not following. That's right, which means why don't you go out there and follow? You know we don't typically beg for, you know, likes or follows or shares or anything like that, but on this particular one it would help out a lot.

Speaker 2: 3:22

Yeah, it would be great if you guys, because if we can get 100 people to follow us on Facebook, then we can do live streams on Facebook. And if you're not a YouTuber or a Twitcher, maybe you can be a facer, then you can be a facer.

Speaker 1: 3:37

So, yeah, guys, do that, or John and I are going to have to make 15 fake accounts so we can reach out to y'all. Yeah, yeah, have to make 15 fake accounts so we can reach out to y'all.

Speaker 2: 3:46

Yeah, yeah, and that's a pain, so don't make us do that, guys. Don't make us make 15 different emails just for this.

Speaker 1: 3:50

It's going to be fake STS one, fake STS two. Yeah, Watch. It be something stupid too, where you get on there and it's like you got to be a certain age on your account before you can follow people. So it would be like, oh, you have to be a member of Facebook for X amount of time before you can even follow. Yeah, Because it was something like that too, where our page had to be a certain age before we could live stream on it. Yeah, it was like three months before we could do live streams on it. Facebook is weird guys.

Speaker 2: 4:23

Yeah, each platform has weird stuff about it, but anyway. So yeah, live streams coming up. If you're on Facebook and you have not followed the Saints to Serve podcast on Facebook, go do that. Just to help the Facebook people out. They need to hear live worship, that's right.

Speaker 1: 4:44

And if we don't get there? You know Twitch and YouTube.

Speaker 2: 4:47

Yeah, yep, which, and yeah, we'll share links to those. For the most part, that's it. You know, in June no, it'll be July We'll be doing another inductive Bible study core course. It'll be local, so if you're interested and you're in the Georgia kind of West Atlanta area, reach out at saints that serve at gmailcom. Yeah, and we'll get you set up and we'll give you more info.

Speaker 1: 5:17

And also that course is free.

Speaker 2: 5:19

Yeah 100% free. There's nothing you need to pay. You just need to make a time commitment. It's four sessions, one hour per session. So it'll be the month of July. We'll meet four times for one hour and by the end of it, you will be able to dive into God's word Inductively. Inductively and get context for scripture and be able to apply it in your life the way it was intended, and get context for scripture and be able to apply it in your life the way it was intended. So there you go, there you go. So, yeah, that's it as far as announcements go.

Speaker 1: 5:51

All right, so are you ready to get?

Speaker 2: 5:54

sci-fi-y, yeah, yeah. So, tyler, this is your transition.

Speaker 1: 5:59

We are transitioning into the main topic of this episode, which is what?

Speaker 2: 6:05

Sci-fi. So I went the route of like I was just looking at putting together notes for my favorite sci-fi, yeah, but I think you went more the route of just sci-fi in general.

Speaker 1: 6:23

Kind of yeah. So you came to me and you're like let's. I think you initially said and I hope I don't step on toes about what you're going to talk about yeah. But you came to me and essentially said I want to talk about a very specific sci-fi show and I said let's make it about sci-fi. Okay, in a general sense, yeah, and you interpreted that as bringing forth sci-fi shows in media that you are interested in and I've interpreted that as just sci-fi in general and talk about sci-fi which we can get into shows and whatnot. But I think that I'm such a big sci-fi fan, yeah, that I enjoy a majority of sci-fi. Yeah, like all the things you're talking about.

Speaker 2: 7:11

if I haven't seen it, if I would watch it, I'd probably be like, yeah, I'd like that yeah, I get that and I respect that and we'll call this our intro to sci-fi and just have like a little side playlist, that way every time we come back to sci-fi we can refer. Hey, this is the first episode where we talked about sci-fi, but yeah, I wanted to talk about my favorite show specifically it has your favorite aquaman in it, right uh?

Speaker 1: 7:38

yeah, it does it's so weird to see like actors who have made a big name for themselves after hitting that big break, whatever it is. But it's like wait, jason momoa is in stargate yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2: 7:53

So there you go. If you didn't know, uh, my favorite sci-fi is star.

Speaker 1: 8:01

Now is that Stargate Atlantis, Stargate SG-1? I enjoy Stargate, Stargate, just Stargate.

Speaker 2: 8:09

I enjoy Stargate Atlantis, so I know the most about Stargate Atlantis. But I've watched SG-1 not in its entirety. I think there's like 10 or 12 seasons.

Speaker 1: 8:22

That's the one that is the biggest one, right SG-1? Yes, that's the one that is the biggest one, right?

Speaker 2: 8:25

SG-1? Yes, that's the longest running show. And then there's one called Stargate Universe. I think it only has two seasons and then they've got like three or four different movies. So it all started with the I believe it was 1994, stargate movie release. It was just called Stargate. Just called Stargate movie release. It was just called Stargate. Just called Stargate, it had what's the guy's name who plays. He's in Tombstone and he's Star-Lord's dad from.

Speaker 1: 8:56

My goodness, I almost said Jeff Bridges, but that's not correct.

Speaker 2: 8:59

No, I'm looking it up now, guys, don't worry.

Speaker 1: 9:03

Oh, that's irritating me. You're going to say it and I'm going to be so mad. Yeah, you are going to be mad because he's a.

Speaker 2: 9:08

He's big Kurt Russell. It also has James Spader.

Speaker 1: 9:12

James Spader, which he's the one who plays Ultron. Right, yeah, he does play Ultron. He is also the one who says In the office why is Jim being mean to the magician? Yeah, why is Jim being?

Speaker 2: 9:25

being mean to the magician. Yeah, why is jim being so mean to the magician, or no? Why is jim treating the magician so poorly? That's it.

Speaker 1: 9:33

Which is so funny because it because they pair that up with dr strange, the newest one. Yeah, because john krasinski plays mr fantastic in that and he's being rude to dr Strange. And it's just so funny how so many people are now in the MCU that you can just make the funniest references now.

Speaker 2: 9:53

Yeah, I think that. So the show Community that we I don't think we've actually talked about it on here, but you and I talk about it Community is great. It is a great show, but I think every single person, with the exception of chevy chase, has made some sort of marvel debut what is um the main character been, what, what they all been in it? Joel mccall. I can't remember maybe. Maybe joel mccall wasn't it, but I know that it was.

Speaker 1: 10:27

What about the? What was her name? Cheryl, cheryl the black lady.

Speaker 2: 10:34

Oh, cherie, I think, is what her name was oh gotcha, that was close, yeah, so Joel McHale. Maybe Joel McHale has not been in it. I'm pulling it up now. Now I've got to correct myself, anyways.

Speaker 1: 10:51

Watch it that only Donald Glover was in the MCU, because I can't think of Danny Pugh, right, that's his name. Yeah, he was in Captain America, oh, that's right, he was one of the desk workers, right, yeah, yeah, whatchamacallit, I'm blanking. He was in Captain America, oh, that's right, he was one of the desk workers, right, yeah, yeah, whatchamacallit, I'm blanking on it. And Civil War. Civil War, yeah, no.

Speaker 2: 11:13

Yeah, winter.

Speaker 1: 11:13

Soldier.

Speaker 2: 11:15

No, because I thought he was in the. Is that? Oh yeah, you're right. Winter Soldier.

Speaker 1: 11:25

Because that's when they take down hydra within, inside that building, yeah, yeah, yeah. Great movie, best marvel movie, yeah, a hundred percent best one it really is. It's just, it's got everything the marvel should have and we haven't had it since.

Speaker 2: 11:36

So yeah, there you go, so maybe only half the cast. I take that back. I was like, I was probably like yeah, man, all of them all of them are in it and I'm wrong.

Speaker 1: 11:54

What's funny is you can probably more. This is just more of a generalized statement, but you could probably more accurately say that all of the actors in that probably have been in a Disney film. Yeah, is Masters of the actors in that probably have been in a Disney film.

Speaker 2: 12:07

Yeah, is Masters of the Universe, dc or Marvel. It's coming out next year no.

Speaker 1: 12:14

It's this own thing, if I'm not mistaken. Okay, because that's He-Man.

Speaker 2: 12:19

Oh, you're right, You're right, yeah, so I guess it's only half the cast. Wow, johnny Good, one Good. Guess it's only half the cast. Wow, johnny Good, one Good. One Way to let everybody down you let me so far down.

Speaker 1: 12:31

Yeah, so anyway, stargate, stargate, baby. So what's so great about Stargate, stargate?

Speaker 2: 12:40

I just like it because it combines exploration and just all the assets of a good sci-fi with new alien. They did set up a really good plot vehicle to have any kind of story at any point. I think part of the allure that they did that was good, especially for SG-1, is that they dove heavy into Egyptian mythology and coupled it into oh, it was actually space aliens.

Speaker 1: 13:19

Yeah, well, the thing is is you have this portal that can take you literally anywhere which means you could then have literally infinite stories with these characters.

Speaker 2: 13:33

Yeah, yeah, and that's the thing is. It's so. For those who don't know, stargate is everything in the shows and the movies. They find these gates that create stable wormholes that you can basically transport through to another space, and they call these portals Stargates, and they were created by a race that they call the Ancients, which is like a predecessor to humanity on Earth.

Speaker 1: 14:07

Why is it that it's always in all media? It's always the ancients, the precursors, the guardians. It's always the something that's something that came before, that's always technologically more advanced than what we currently are.

Speaker 2: 14:23

Yeah, I would say that because we like to look at it as linear, so I guess it makes us feel better about where we're at technologically. But if you look at history, it's like there's different technologies that get developed as mankind progresses and then, whenever the catalyst or the forerunners of that movement of progression fall apart, then a lot of that technology is lost and then man, to an extent starts over it's always an interesting though like plot point to a lot of sci-fi, a lot of fiction does it?

Speaker 1: 15:02

yeah and it's like, yeah, we lose knowledge in the real world, you know, like, but we do find it. And it's not that it's we're more advanced than them. Yeah, but it doesn't make them stupid either. You know what I mean. Like, yeah, but always in sci-fi is like they were always better than us.

Speaker 2: 15:21

Yeah, I actually okay fun fact fact. I thought it would be funny to make a movie about where aliens come to earth to pick a fight, but they focused for all of their history they focused on space travel and that's it. So all their technology has to do with being able to travel through space. But all their warfare technology is very like Iron Age basic and they show up to Earth and it's like humans have been fighting for thousands of years and so we've gotten really good at it. They just get the. They just wipe the floor with them. Right? That almost just seems like they just wipe the floor with them.

Speaker 1: 16:04

Right, that almost just seems like an episode of Black Mirror or something.

Speaker 2: 16:10

Yeah, I guess where it's like a yeah, an advanced civilization, but not advanced in war.

Speaker 1: 16:15

Well, it's almost like the whole time you know we're prepping and all this stuff it almost just seems more like a comedy bit, like you're saying, yeah, more like a comedy bit, like you're saying, yeah, where it's, you know, the whole time like the aliens are in the sky. We see them and it's like like somehow or another, they are here to hurt us. We know that they're here to attack us, yeah, and then when they finally land and we're prepped, they just come out and it's just like, like you said, such primitive tools to fight, yeah, because they focus so much on travel instead of warfare. That would be be very funny.

Speaker 2: 16:44

It's just like they come running out and we're just like, oh, yeah, and that's why I was like it would be funny, because then it would be like you know, humanity gets their hands on their technology and figures out how to space travel. They start traveling all over space and find out that everyone else in the universe has not focused on warfare and defense, they focused on other things, and so it's just very easy to take over the world. That is very British colonization-esque.

Speaker 1: 17:17

I thought you were going to say very British comedy-esque, oh yeah.

Speaker 2: 17:21

Maybe that too, no, but in Stargate they push hard on. So the Gould is like the main bad guys the Gould, the Gould, the Gould.

Speaker 1: 17:32

Because you only watched Atlantis, correct?

Speaker 2: 17:49

So you know about the Wraith, yes, yeah, so, anyways, but their tech is very Egyptian-esque. So all their spaceships are pyramids and different stuff and that plays into. I think it catches the attention because we've got pyramids all over our world and a lot of them. We can't explain how they built them because, like for the dating of when they were built, and the tools that we believed humanity to have at the time don't work for the size of the materials and movement and placement and all that stuff. So it's like the pyramids in, especially in egypt, they're a mystery, because it's like how do we, how did they do this? Um, so if you involve aliens in that, it's like, oh, simple aliens, they aliens, they came and helped, but anyways, yeah, so that's pretty cool. But yeah, I really like Stargate. Specifically, atlantis is what I've watched the most. And with Stargate Atlantis there's this alien race called the Wraith and their only source of food is specifically humans. But it's not like flesh. They suck the life force out of somebody.

Speaker 1: 19:16

Correct In order for them to live forever. So it's not really a food source as much as an energy source, correct?

Speaker 2: 19:26

Got it and the galaxy that they're in. They have basically depleted their stores to where they have to go into a long-term hibernation for the population to— A-term relationship with sleep yeah, in order for the human population in the entire galaxy that they're in to replenish. And the biggest thing is like, okay, they're awakened prematurely so there's not enough food to go around. And then they find out that earth is in another galaxy somewhere and they're like oh, there's billions of humans, let's go there.

Speaker 1: 20:11

Just like right there, you just see one of your ghouls, Ghouls, Ghouls, and they're in a chef costume and it's like chef's kiss.

Speaker 2: 20:21

Well, the ghouls don't eat humans, they possess them, gotcha, yeah. So that's the thing. Oh the ghoul don't eat humans.

Speaker 2: 20:27

They possess them, gotcha, yeah, so that's the thing. Oh, the wraith. The wraith eat the life source from other humans. I've only seen it done to humans, but other creatures and the ghoul. They believe that they're better than everybody else, and so they will possess. They need a host to survive, and so they'll possess somebody and then enslave them. And that's how that works. Well, there you go. So there you go. But yeah, they play off of like a couple of different, just ancient mythos. One of the alien races is called the Asgardians. I've heard that term before, yep, but they're like what you would imagine an alien looks like.

Speaker 2: 21:19

Like small gray black eyes, the little gray man Yep. Small gray black eyes, the little gray man Yep. So there's a, but I think that's the fun thing about the show is because it's like each episode is them going somewhere new and meeting something new or finding something new, and then how do we overcome this kind of deal? But it's pretty fun. But yeah, jason Momoa is in Stargate LAS.

Speaker 1: 21:42

He's not the main character or anything. No, he's just like a small side character. Who's like no small he's?

Speaker 2: 21:46

not a small side character. No, no, he's late in the game, so he's not like in the first season, but they introduce him and he becomes one of the main supporting characters.

Speaker 1: 22:01

I remember coming over and I'm like, is that Khal Drogo? Yeah, and you're're like who's that? I'm like a guy from game of thrones and you're like I'm a christian.

Speaker 2: 22:13

Yeah, no, I'm kidding. Uh, yeah, he's. Uh, yeah, he, but he's in it and he plays like a stereotypical jason momoa role yeah, isn't he?

Speaker 1: 22:22

isn't he a soldier, but he's still like I'm going to be me instead of fallen lion.

Speaker 2: 22:27

Soldier, he was a soldier in his planet and then his planet got culled by the Wraiths and he became what they call a runner, where basically he's a very rare human where the Wraith can't suck his life force for some reason. So they turn him into what they call a runner and it's basically just a practice dummy. They practice their art of hunting on him, so they put a tracker in his spine and just release him into the universe and they can track him, and so he has to run from Stargate to Stargate to get away from the Wraith who are trying to hunt him and shoot him and kill him.

Speaker 1: 23:09

Gotcha, wouldn't it be wild, right, if Jason Momoa's character is running to this very day and he goes to a Stargate and ends up in Minecraft.

Speaker 2: 23:21

That would be funny. It's all connected. I think it would be funny if his character when he was a runner, goes through a Stargate and ends up on a hunting preserve for the Predator aliens. So he's being hunted by Wraith and Predators. What are those called? What are the Predator aliens called? They're just called Predators.

Speaker 1: 23:49

They're just called Predators. They don't have a name. I don't think so. So I and I think this is a good segue to get into my favorite sci-fi okay, but I don't think that the predators had a name, like the xenomorphs did okay.

Speaker 2: 23:59

Yeah, see, that was my question is because I, you know, I've watched several of the movies but I've never actually like so I'm a way bigger alien fan than I am predator.

Speaker 1: 24:10

I've seen predator maybe once or twice. I've seen ridley scott's alien several times, because those movies chef's kiss gotcha. Are you familiar with the horror, horror movie Alien?

Speaker 2: 24:26

I am, I have seen it. Yes, yes, so quick Google search says that they are called the Yaoutja. The Yaoutja.

Speaker 1: 24:34

I wonder if that's like a name that was assigned to them in this newest movie, Prey.

Speaker 2: 24:39

They are also known as predators or hunters.

Speaker 1: 24:42

Yeah, I bet you that that's what they were called, because I fell asleep watching Prey.

Speaker 2: 24:48

Have you seen Prey? I started watching it, but I never finished it.

Speaker 1: 24:52

Yeah, me and Ashley were watching it and I fell asleep on the couch and never went back and finished it. That happens a lot to me, like in my old age. I'll sit there and I'll be like watching it and I'll just I'll fall asleep, and I used to with fighting. I'm just like I just accept my fate. At that point I'm like I'll finish it later. And sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. A lot of movies.

Speaker 2: 25:13

I don't know the ending to All right, so I'm trying to like verify this. The only sites that reference that is their name are wikipedia xenopedia for xenomorphs yeah, and then reddit it, so there's no official fandom so predator website, yeah, or the hunter, predator or hunters.

Speaker 1: 25:38

Which predator has a new movie. It might be a movie, it might be a tv show, I think it's a movie, but but Predator Badlands is coming out this year.

Speaker 2: 25:46

Yeah, you mentioned that. I don't know anything about it.

Speaker 1: 25:50

I think they dropped a trailer right when we started recording the podcast. So after the podcast, I'm going to watch this trailer. Okay, but getting back onto the good sci-fi Alien, alien, do you have a button?

Speaker 2: 26:06

no, I was trying to find one. All I could find was this which is not Alien.

Speaker 1: 26:17

No, that's Predator, that's Predator. So, yeah, or the Yautja, hmm, or the Hunters, or the Hunters, mm-hmm. So I watched Alien again recently. Mm-hmm, dude, this movie holds up so well For a movie that was made in like 1970.

Speaker 2: 26:35

No, it's so good, arnold. No, who's the main?

Speaker 1: 26:38

character it's a Gourney.

Speaker 2: 26:39

Weaver, there we go, thank you, I was going back to Predator Going back.

Speaker 1: 26:43

You keep trying to bring it back to Predator. Stop it, oh man, anyways no, but it's just. It's so good, everything about it's done so well and something that I will hold up forever. Yeah, like you can't like john carpenter's. The thing all of that's done is all those effects in that movie are done practically, yeah, and one.

Speaker 1: 27:10

It just makes it so much more disgusting in a good way, yeah you know what I mean, if you're into that kind of movie and it's just like that movie was made in the 70s and it's better looking and has a better plot and just visually better than a lot of movies that come out today.

Speaker 2: 27:27

Isn't where that takes place Antarctica.

Speaker 1: 27:30

Yes.

Speaker 2: 27:30

Okay, there's another thing dude Going to Stargate Earth's Stargate was found in.

Speaker 1: 27:37

Antarctica. Is that why they call it Atlantis? Yeah, has nothing to do with one another.

Speaker 2: 27:42

Well, no, they call it Atlantis, because the city can go underwater, go underwater, yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's got a force field that allows it to stay underwater to hide itself.

Speaker 1: 27:52

So they take their Stargate, the one they found, and they move it right, or is it?

Speaker 2: 27:57

they have to operate in Antarctica, I believe okay'm, I'm wrong, uh, no, yeah, yeah, I think they found it there and they moved it to a mountain base in america because the only safe place in the world is america, usa, yep. And then there's a facility, an ancients facility, that in antarctica, and that has a bunch of ancients technology that they're harvesting and learning about and stuff Like a big thing with the ancients is using your mind to control things and your DNA controls it. So they've got a captain's chair that the user has to have ancient DNA to operate it. When they sit in it it turns on and then they use their mind to operate. Got it, be it flying or shooting, you know, defense, whatever, or operating the shield, stuff like that. But yeah, all fun stuff, all fun stuff, all fun stuff. But then we come back around to it what's going on in Antarctica?

Speaker 1: 29:04

that's where they pit the predators and the aliens against one another. Alien vs Predator happens in Antarctica yeah, oh, I need to rewatch that movie because it's not the best. Yeah, I remember enjoying it like when it first came out when I was younger, but it's, it's not the best movie. It's also like ruins the canon somehow or another, if I remember correctly, because like alien takes place like 300 years in the future and alien versus predator is like modern day, so it doesn't work that well plot-wise.

Speaker 2: 29:41

I feel like I remember Alien vs Predator being all right, it was Aliens vs Predator Requiem.

Speaker 1: 29:47

That's right. The sequel to that was let's make an Alien-Predator hybrid. Yeah, which was weird. If you dive deep into the Alien lore, there is a lot of really weird alien hybrids that they come up with in the comics and the books and video games and whatnot, and it's like I think it's all driven. So alien is like their attempt at making the perfect human using weird alien DNA that existed. So it's like they're creating xenomorphs from xenomorphs almost, if I'm not mistaken but it's all derived by like a humanoid entity, like demon or something like that. It's really weird if you dive really deep into alien lore.

Speaker 2: 30:36

What's the one where it's like they go to a planet and the extraterrestrials are like humanoid looking, but they're like taller and like really white.

Speaker 1: 30:47

That is Prometheus, prometheus, there we go, yeah.

Speaker 2: 30:50

Those boys were so white that they gave the sun a sunburn.

Speaker 1: 30:52

Those are like the forerunners. Those were the engineers in Alien, so that was again the people who came before and they framed that like the engineers are the creators of the xenomorphs, mm-hmm, but they were just more scientists trying to utilize alien DNA to create super soldiers, kind of thing.

Speaker 2: 31:13

Yeah, because the xenomorphs are more so, not necessarily technologically advanced, but they're a hive mentality, alien, right Like they've got a queen, yeah, and they all operate under the direction.

Speaker 1: 31:26

They're not all like controlled under one mind or anything, they just like really work well together Work ants.

Speaker 2: 31:33

Yeah, they're more like ants. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1: 31:36

Okay, okay, which is weird. If you dive, dive again, dive deep into the lore, it's like you find out some really weird nonsense about xenomorphs, like that they can breathe in space, oh really, and that like, unless you shoot them, they're like immortal meaning that they live forever unless they get.

Speaker 2: 31:56

so they're like elves elves they live forever unless you kill them.

Speaker 1: 32:00

Yes, well, it's like you know they can survive the vacuum of space. You know like they can survive like extreme temperatures, extreme environments, but if you put a bullet in their head they die, yeah, which is really funny because it's like that is such a large jump between alien and aliens. Which was one was the first one was a horror movie and the second one was like an action movie, where the first one had one alien. They were trying to survive. Yeah, everything they tried to do to it to get rid of it, they couldn't do it. Okay, and then in the second one they go into this, to this planet, and there's like a whole hive of them and they're just blowing them away, like they're just like let me shoot a and they're just like killing them by the hundreds.

Speaker 2: 32:45

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 32:47

It was such a huge leap and it's such a good movie, but two is just not as good as one. Yeah, that's the thing is. They're all entertaining to me, yeah, but they just have progressively gotten worse over time. Yeah, that is like one of those few properties that it's just. It didn't get better.

Speaker 2: 33:08

Yeah, I will say, for specifically on the Predator side of things like it got pretty bad for a while there.

Speaker 1: 33:15

What do you mean? There was like only two Predator movies.

Speaker 2: 33:18

No, because there's two Pred predators. And then there's the alien verse predator. There's two of those shoot.

Speaker 1: 33:24

And then there's there's this predator, the one with the topher grace in it. You're right, and that one's good yeah and then there's the prey, prey so there is more than I remember. And then this badlands, badlands. But if you do a comparison here to Aliens, right, mm-hmm, there's Alien Aliens, which is the second one, mm-hmm, alien 3, alien 4, which I think is Alien Resurrection, prometheus, alien Covenant and Alien Romulus, and then there's Alien Earth coming out this year.

Speaker 2: 33:57

Alien Earth.

Speaker 1: 33:58

Yeah, I don't know how they're going to do that, but it's like xenomorphs are loose on planet Earth, but it takes place before the first movie. Interesting, because, like it doesn't make sense. Because they show Ridley, the main character, back on Earth in Alien 2 for a short amount of time, mm-hmm, and there's nothing wrong with Earth. There's nothing wrong with Earth, right, and then they go back to Earth at the end. I thought they were going to be like they show up to Earth at the end of the fourth one and you know that's supposed to be the big finale. They finally make it back home.

Speaker 2: 34:33

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 34:38

And that's a better opportunity to start Alien Earth the TV show after like, oh, they accidentally bring an alien with them to Earth and it multiplies. You know, yeah, be such a better spot there.

Speaker 2: 34:45

I'm trying to find an answer to this and I'm not. I was trying to figure out how many Xenomorph comics there are. A lot Like it's going to be. There's a lot.

Speaker 1: 34:54

There is a lot. There's no like definitive answer. Just like Power Rangers answer. Just like power rangers. You know, there's like a massive amount of power ranger comics a ridiculous amount of comics that like speaking of sci-fi power rangers rangers.

Speaker 2: 35:11

I feel like that's kind of a big hit right now, where people are taking little bits from the show different power ranger shows and making like and making quick little real videos out of them.

Speaker 1: 35:23

Yeah, I mean, people are doing that with a lot of stuff. I found a lot of movies to watch just because I saw a clip from it and it's like I would have never gave this movie a chance if I didn't see a piece of this movie and thought, oh, that looks good. So, but Power Rangers, that's something else I watched a lot of as a kid. Yeah, I remember you having some power ranger toys growing up. I still have them. I just cleared it, cleared out the rest of my belongings from the house I was living in before I got married, oh really. And I found all my power ranger toys nice, so they're in your closet now. They're not a closet, they're in a spare room on the floor because I got a lot of stuff out. I respect that. I respect that we don't have room, but I got to get the stuff. So there you go, there you go, yep, cool man.

Speaker 2: 36:08

Well, my wife told me I had to give some honorable mentions.

Speaker 1: 36:13

Yeah. So before we do that, let's give a quick little timeline of sci-fi in general. Let's do it. So do you know what is considered the first science fiction property? What's considered that? I do not. It is a little book. I don't know if you've ever heard of it. It's called Frankenstein. Really, yeah, that's sci-fi Interesting. That was written in 1818. Yeah, that was a long time ago, mm-hmm. It combines speculative science with gothic horror. Whoa, got it. That's something that's just been done so much, and some of it really good and some of it very bad, mm-hmm, do you remember that Frankenstein movie that came out.

Speaker 2: 37:02

It was supposed to be a part of the Dark Universe.

Speaker 1: 37:04

That was the guy who played Harvey Dent, right yeah.

Speaker 2: 37:07

Yeah, it was like Frankenstein and gargoyles.

Speaker 1: 37:11

I never saw it, but I remember it oh you never saw it.

Speaker 2: 37:14

No, it's interesting.

Speaker 1: 37:18

I feel like there was an age there where it was like let's start this movie universe or just in general, movies in like between 2005 and 2010. Just really weird movies coming out.

Speaker 2: 37:34

Yeah, this one was weird because the bad guys are like these demonic aliens or demonic vampires. I guess they are demons, they're demons. You can just say vampires. I guess they are demons, they're demons, you can just say vampires. No, they are demons. I'm sorry, I was trying to say that they were vampires, but they're not, they're demons. And then gargoyles are actually like a sub-genre of angels that were sent down to Earth to guard Earth from these demons, and they basically try to team up with Frankenstein to defeat the demons.

Speaker 1: 38:06

We did. We had a lot of movies like that, like what was it Didn't we get? We had the Mummy.

Speaker 2: 38:12

Yeah, with Tom Cruise, with Tom Cruise, not the good OG Mummy.

Speaker 1: 38:16

We had Dracula, untold yeah, which? That one was Luke Evans, like the origin story, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then we got the invisible man. But we did get the invisible man, you're right, right, and out of those four, the only one that was actually good was the Invisible man, in my opinion. Yeah, because they did it different and it was very sci-fi-y and less like well, it all could be considered sci-fi, yeah, but less like chemical change. You know, he's actually invisible, like his body's invisible. It was more technology-based base of like I'm using technology to make myself invisible. Yeah, it was like a suit, yeah, yeah, yeah, it was such a good movie awesome, so he didn't have to strip down naked like in league of extraordinary gentlemen.

Speaker 2: 39:12

That or hollow man or hollow man yeah yeah, which was also actually a pretty good movie yeah, that's what I felt like when all those monster horror movies came out. I felt like they were trying to relaunch the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Right, because they had all the same players. They had Jackal and Mr Hyde, they had the Invisible man. Who else did they have?

Speaker 1: 39:37

They had Sean Connery. They had Sean Connery.

Speaker 2: 39:41

Well, no, in League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Yeah, they had Alan Quartermain, they had Nemo, they had the wife of Dracula, they had. Did they have Dorian Marlin? No, no, they couldn't afford him. Yeah, who else, mr Grey?

Speaker 1: 39:59

Yep, dorian Grey, right. Dorian Gray, mm-hmm, the man who was immortal. The immortal man, mm-hmm who. What did you do? Hey dude, what's your superpower? I live forever, yeah, but what do you do? I live forever.

Speaker 2: 40:14

Well, but he can't be killed. That's the thing. Like there's nothing that can kill him unless he looks like all his pain and age is put on his picture. So any kind of stab or shot or mangle or whatever, it's all pushed onto the portrait.

Speaker 1: 40:30

It ends up hey bro, look at this. What is it? It's just a picture of him.

Speaker 2: 40:34

Yeah, the moment he looks at the portrait, all of it's transferred back onto him.

Speaker 1: 40:40

So if anybody else looks at it, it's just like horrific looking painting of a really decrepit old man. Got it? Yep, Cool, Pretty, messed up. So you know. 1818, we had Frankenstein and then a few other. We're getting back to the timeline, by the way. Sure, no good call. So the 1800s in general. We had Jules Verne and HG Wells, recall. So the 1800s in general.

Speaker 2: 41:05

We had jules verne and hd wells. Do you know what they wrote? That would be the. Let's start with jules verne. What is it? War um war of the worlds.

Speaker 1: 41:10

That was hg well, that was hg wells, yeah, yeah, what did jules verne do? Journey to the center of the earth and 20 000 leagues under the. There we go. Yeah, hd wells also wrote the time machine, really, yep. So they, with those books, they introduced time travel, space exploration and alien invasion themes, and exploring the depths of the ocean, sure yep okay, whatever sorry, sorry, space and ocean exploration, nitpick Jairus' notes, anyways, okay.

Speaker 1: 41:56

So then in the 1920s to the 1940s you know again, these are just like kind of generalized plot points, but like the major ones is like we had a rise of the pulp kind of era of stuff. So like magazines, like the amazing stories and stories, you know a lot of stuff focused on adventure, aliens, robots and future tech, and you had people like isaac asm asimov, arthur c clark and robert heinlein, just famous authors in that genre. No, really given specifics, but you know, yeah, yeah, they had the 1940s, 1950s. That was the golden age 1940s to 1950s.

Speaker 1: 42:29

Mm-hmm, and that was like you know hard science, space travel and technological optimism Okay yeah.

Speaker 2: 42:36

Technological optimism. So the Jetsons when the Jetsons was up, yeah, that kind of stuff.

Speaker 1: 42:40

Okay, it's like that feeling of like happy, futuristic kind of stuff. Now I got to look that up.

Speaker 2: 42:49

When did the Jetsons?

Speaker 1: 42:50

air, and then we're going to make a go ahead, go ahead and answer your question when it was the 1960s, 1962, yeah, so, but yeah, that would be part of that, if I'm not mistaken. Okay, just more happier. Yeah, yeah, the family of the future, yeah, that kind of thing, mm-hmm. And we're going to jump ahead a little bit, okay, because this is where we're going to get back into movies. Okay, so, can you name the sci-fi and pop culture 1970s to 1990s famous films? I mean, predator's got to be one of them, right, not on my list, but yeah, okay, star Wars, star Wars, there we go. That's the one I was trying to lead you into. Star Trek, star Trek.

Speaker 2: 43:32

I can't think of any other ones Come on now Star Wars Star.

Speaker 1: 43:36

Trek Star Mountain.

Speaker 2: 43:40

Star Mountain.

Speaker 1: 43:41

Star Mountain? I don't know. No, so we have the Twilight Zone, oh, one of my favorite TV shows. I always keep on forgetting about that.

Speaker 2: 43:51

Was it because you never really watched it?

Speaker 1: 43:52

I never really watched it and I kind of lumped it in with suspense thriller it is sci-fi, but it's very sci-fifi and if you watch it now, it is very well written and it's not like spiritually compromising. You know what I mean. It was always, yeah, it wasn't preaching, you know, and spreading the love of christ, yeah, but it was always good versus evil. Yeah, in that sense, like there, like, I think there was one where, like, the devil shows up and it's like you have to, they had to be against the devil. Yeah, you know what I mean. They were opposing the devil, you know that kind of thing.

Speaker 2: 44:30

You know what I mean.

Speaker 1: 44:30

Yeah, which is it's always nice to see, for sure, a good versus evil, yep, and it's nice to see when they're not portraying the evil as good. Correct, which we have spoke on before. We have talked about that before Some other hits, and these are some of my favorite Blade Runner, spaceballs no, not Spaceballs, I've never actually really seen that film. Oh, you haven't. No, I know what it's about. I mean, I know it's a parody on Star Wars and whatnot, yeah. But Blade Runner, okay, with Harrison Ford, with Harrison Ford, great movie, yep, fantastic movie. Even the sequel was pretty good. Blade Runner 2047. 2047. That was a good movie.

Speaker 2: 45:14

What's the 2047? Just the year it happened. Oh okay, yeah, the year it happened. Oh okay, yeah, all right nothing crazy.

Speaker 1: 45:19

Yep, not too far off, got it okay. The matrix, the matrix, the matrix. You don't think the matrix is sci-fi?

Speaker 2: 45:27

no, but I thought we were in the 70s and 80s. I said 70s to the 90s.

Speaker 1: 45:33

Oh, okay, pay attention, john dang.

Speaker 2: 45:34

Okay, yeah, the matrix is that that was probably one of the bigger ones, but again it's like another one of those, in my opinion. That, okay, pay attention.

Speaker 1: 45:39

John Dang. Okay, yeah, the Matrix is dead. That was probably one of the bigger ones, but again it's like another one of those, in my opinion, that it started very strong and just kind of got worse as the movie's going along. Yeah, I've heard a lot of people didn't like number four. Number four is awful.

Speaker 2: 45:55

Yeah, that's what I've heard. I tried to start watching it and I couldn't get very far.

Speaker 1: 45:59

I mean that's what I've heard. I tried to start watching it and I couldn't get very far. I mean it's just like okay, let's put it this way. It's like I think that it's a cop-out. When you create characters and you don't need to attempt to cause, especially when you have something like the Matrix, where you have risks of characters dying. There is a lot of problems that you're dealing with and high risk, high reward with what they're trying to accomplish. Yeah, not a single character dies in the matrix 4. No one, no one dies in the matrix 4. Not only does no one die spoiler alert, everybody. By the way, they bring back neo. Yeah, it's like like a huge point of the third movie of him sacrificing himself to save everybody and they just bring him back just so they can make more money. It was very much a let's make money movie. It wasn't let's make a movie to make a good story. Yeah, a great story.

Speaker 2: 46:53

Yeah, well, in that case, stargate came out in the 90s, so Stargate would be a big one. Yeah, farscape, is that on there? No, oh, that's not that big anyways.

Speaker 1: 47:04

Yeah, that's why it's not on my list.

Speaker 2: 47:07

I know there's probably at least one to two people who listen to this podcast, who have heard of and or watched Farscape.

Speaker 1: 47:15

All right, everybody. All the big Farscape. Yeah, don't watch it. Everybody all the big Farscapes. Let's all join hands in solidarity in the comments section below yeah, Let John know you're here, Don't let him feel alone.

Speaker 2: 47:32

No, I didn't even finish it. I watched like a couple episodes I was like hey, don't be modest. This is too weird. No, it's weird.

Speaker 1: 47:39

Everybody get out there and join John. No, don't, don't watch it. And let us all know about Farscape. Don't watch it, anyways, yeah. So let's say, you know Matrix, and then Alien. Alien, which is again one of the best sci-fi movies ever, according to you, yep, based off a fact. So let's get into the modern sci-fi era. Okay, we have, you know some big ones. I would say Okay hold on.

Speaker 2: 48:08

So nothing about Edgar Rice Burroughs in your timeline there.

Speaker 1: 48:14

No, that's weird, because he wrote no one cares about Tarzan.

Speaker 2: 48:19

No, he wrote all the John Carter books. He wrote the-.

Speaker 1: 48:23

This is a very, very vague, brief summary in general. I'm just giving examples within these eras.

Speaker 2: 48:29

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 48:30

You know. So there you go. And then you know the modern era, which is, you know, 2000s to today. Okay, and you have shows like Black Mirror, the Expanse and Dune the Expanse yeah, that's a big hitter for him. I hear a lot about the Expanse Really. Yeah, it's pretty big, Okay. Just because it's not big in your life doesn't mean it's not big.

Speaker 2: 48:54

All right, I will say I did enjoy the Tomorrow War. Did you ever watch that? That?

Speaker 1: 49:00

was the one with Chris Pratt. That was a good movie.

Speaker 2: 49:02

That was good. What are some modern sci-fis that I've enjoyed? Oh, of course, sequel to Star Wars.

Speaker 1: 49:10

No, just kidding, oh gotta love that, gotta love it. Rise of Skywalker I love hey. What's your name Rey? What's your last name, star?

Speaker 2: 49:23

Wars. I love when they make fun of it. There's like an animation of Anakin and Obi-Wan fighting on the volcano planet Uh-huh. And then Anakin lands a hit on Obi-Wan and Obi-Wan's like, oh shoot, well, I'll just force heal real quick, you can do that. Anakin's like, wait, we can do that. And he's like, yeah, of course I can just force heal. And he's like I want to change sides.

Speaker 1: 49:49

No, it's too late. Oh man, yeah, we can get on that for a second Dumb. If you look at, compare Star Trek to Star Wars, right, I know there's that huge debate all the time, right, star Trek, when it comes to storytelling, is better. Star Wars is more approachable and more easy to get into. Okay, because it's a lot more basic than Star Trek. Yeah, but Star Trek is so much more expansible. There's so much more media to consume. Mm-hmm, if you're trying to get into a deep, deep, lord, lore, lore Filled Universe, there we go. Thank you, star Trek is the way to go. If you want something a little bit more simple, you know Star Wars. They're both good for one reason or another, but there is more good Star Trek media properties, whether it be movie or TV show, than there are Star.

Speaker 2: 50:57

Wars, so it'd be the equivalent to, in fantasy, lord of the Rings and Chronicles of Narnia.

Speaker 1: 51:05

Yeah, they're both good, but for their own reasons.

Speaker 2: 51:08

Yeah, but Lord of the Rings is heavy in the lore but Chronicles of Narnia is very easy to consume.

Speaker 1: 51:17

Yes, really, one is more child-oriented, made for children. Star Wars is made for children, it really is. Let's be honest, it's a Disney film, yeah, well, now it is. Now it is. Even back then it was made for kids. Okay, all right, star Trek was not made for kids. I got you, so there you go. I mean, that's kind of how it is. It's like, if you want something that's a little bit more adult themed, but not like inappropriate, yeah, star Trek Got it, but both are good. Older Star Trek is, though, harder to watch, like the first not first, just the original Star Trek show. It is a little cheesy and low budget. But if you, you can kind of pick any, cause there's so many different star Trek shows. Yeah, you can kind of just pick one and go.

Speaker 2: 52:03

Yeah, so Star Wars is for kids, star Trek is for adults. What are we?

Speaker 1: 52:11

for yeah, I had to throw it in there Apparently multiple times, yeah.

Speaker 2: 52:18

That's right. Our podcast is for Gondor Did you watch Dune?

Speaker 1: 52:22

Yeah, I've seen it. Dune's really good.

Speaker 2: 52:25

It is pretty good. Yeah, there's a podcast I listen to and they talked about Dune at one point and they're like I feel like what's the character?

Speaker 1: 52:33

Charlemagne, that is Paul Atreides. No, no, no. What After Charlemagne? That is Paul Atreides. No, no, no. What's the actor's name? Oh, timothee Chalamet. There we go.

Speaker 2: 52:41

I said it wrong on purpose. I was like I feel like he could be in anything and he is.

Speaker 1: 52:47

He shows up, he's in a lot of stuff. I've seen so many movies with him in it and he is that versatile of an actor. Yeah, I watched him in dune. Then he is willie, wonka, yep and wonka and then he played like what's that artist's name? Like there was a dumb, you know biopic that came out recently about oh geez I can't think of here you know I'm talking about, though, and he plays like this artist, so it's just like he.

Speaker 1: 53:18

He is a really good actor. Yeah, he's also in that really funny SNL skit where they're trying to be like millennial rappers. Yeah, it's just like you know what I'm talking about yeah, he's in it with Pete Davidson.

Speaker 2: 53:34

There we go. Pete Davidson, this is saying that he was in interstellar.

Speaker 1: 53:38

He might have been like. I don't remember him. I need to re-watch interstellar then. Great sci-fi. Yeah, that was a great sci-fi. I've been listening, actually, to the soundtrack this week. It's such a great soundtrack. Anything that christopher nolan puts out is a hit he was in little women was he one of the little women? Was he one of the? Was he one of the Little Women?

Speaker 2: 53:57

Was he one of the Little Women? Was he one of the Little Women? No, I don't think so. He was in that Netflix movie, the King.

Speaker 1: 54:05

I don't know if you watched that Bob Dylan. He played Bob Dylan, bob Dylan. Yeah, I'm seeing it right here. See, I figured it out before you did.

Speaker 2: 54:14

See, see, what are some other things. He was in Hostiles. I didn't watch that it's a Western Edgar Scissorhands, edgar Scissorhands, what? That's what it says Edgar Scissorhands, not Edward Scissorhands.

Speaker 1: 54:32

Getting into some weird stuff here.

Speaker 2: 54:34

Yeah, why is he trying to follow in Johnny Depp's footsteps? He?

Speaker 1: 54:41

kind of is isn't he?

Speaker 2: 54:42

He kind of is they're going to revamp Pirates and he's going to read Jack yeah.

Speaker 1: 54:48

I was going to say just Timothy Shaolin, and it's just going to get out there and he's just going to play all the roles that Johnny Depp played.

Speaker 2: 54:56

I think it would be funny if Johnny Depp did a like a parody sketch of him being in Dune, just to get back at him. That'd be funny.

Speaker 1: 55:10

Anyways, that's pretty much all what we have on sci-fi.

Speaker 2: 55:14

Yeah, that's it for the most part.

Speaker 1: 55:16

I do have a little corner if you want to get into that action hey, then let's go ahead and let tyler know what we're about to do, tyler we are going to transition into the corner step inside if you dare. Shadows move, mysteries whisper and the unknown awaits. Welcome to the corner.

Speaker 2: 55:56

Okay, I have a story for you. Yeah, and it's relatable to what we've been talking about. Okay, it's sci-fi-y, okay, so there is a document that was released by the CIA and in the document they mentioned that they have a file that has testimonies, pictures, drawings of an event that happened in Siberia. Okay, that involved Soviet soldiers and aliens, aliens. So, and okay, the reason I'm doing it this way and I'm not just generally talking about aliens is because there's a lot to say when it comes to aliens and we're just going to touch on different things because there's so much. But this is an event that allegedly happened in Russia, where Soviet soldiers shot down a UFO.

Speaker 1: 56:59

Allegedly, allegedly. This is all allegedly. This is what the document says.

Speaker 2: 57:04

Yes, okay, okay. So the KGB had all this documentation and with the fall of the Soviet Union, somehow the CIA got their hands on this document. Union, somehow the CIA got their hands on this document. But, yeah, so the soldiers shot down a UFO and there were five small entities that stepped out of said UFO and the soldiers were surrounding, or whatever. These entities morphed together into a singular ball-like object. What and it started like doing this, you know, kind of like a rattling, like shaking.

Speaker 2: 57:48

So all the entities, all five of the entities, get together and they morph into a perfect sphere and then the sphere kind of like builds up, almost like it's building up, and then emits a bright light, jeez, and it petrifies a certain number of Soviet soldiers.

Speaker 1: 58:10

Mm-hmm.

Speaker 2: 58:11

Like it shoots through, turns them to stone and only I think it was only like one or two soldiers survive and then the sphere disappears, spooky, and so they you know the kgb they come and they basically they clean up, they get rid of the petrified soldiers, they get rid of the ship and they collect all the documentation for it, catalog it, put it away, and then then somehow the CIA gets their hand on this document and they have released it, saying like, hey, this is what we've got. Allegedly, this has happened. So, yeah, interesting story, but there's a lot of stories that have to do with aliens and Russia.

Speaker 1: 58:55

It's weird Is it because Russia is really expansive, really large amount of space with a lot of land and not a lot of people you could say that, but there is a.

Speaker 2: 59:08

I think what it is is there's a lake in Russia called Lake Baikal and there's a really-.

Speaker 1: 59:16

How do you take appointments? Baikal, baikal yeah, and there's a really—. How do you take appointments by call, by call.

Speaker 2: 59:19

Yeah, no, but there's an alien-esque story that came out of that that once again had to do with the Russian military and aliens. But I think that if there were alien creatures like we know them today, like small gray men with black eyes, I think that there would be a base in Russia in Lake Baikal.

Speaker 1: 59:44

So like an Area 51 Russia.

Speaker 2: 59:47

No, because the Russians don't control it. The aliens control that space. Oh, I see what you're saying. Yeah, so that's my. I think, the more and more I'm hearing about alien stories. I don't think they're from outer space. I think they're from either the ocean or from what people call hollow earth.

Speaker 1: 1:00:06

Gotcha.

Speaker 2: 1:00:07

And they come up. They come up to our side, in a sense, to test technology.

Speaker 1: 1:00:13

Full circle, baby, full circle. Yeah, going right back to Atlantis and Jason Momoa, that's right.

Speaker 2: 1:00:21

But yeah, at some point we're going to have to get in and talk about Admiral Byrd. He's notoriously the guy for Hollow Earth because he did an exploration to Antarctica. He was the first, I think, military dedicated exploration to Antarctica and he flew a plane over the North Pole and he said that there was a circular space and inside it was green vegetation in the middle of the so like a perfectly livable land, just a small mount in the middle of Antarctica that's growing plants that's shooting down in, I think is what he was alleging to Gotcha and like it's just the entrance to it, to Hollow Earth was at the North Pole.

Speaker 2: 1:01:10

And then he goes down there and a man crawls out and it's Jack Black and he says I am steve yeah, yeah, but yeah, so that's what I have for aliens is just this really bizarre story where they turn russian, russian soldiers into stone by morphing into a sphere and shooting us.

Speaker 1: 1:01:35

They literally showed up and said want to play ball.

Speaker 2: 1:01:38

Yeah, exactly, oh. You want to shoot my ship down. I'm going to turn you to stone, jeez.

Speaker 1: 1:01:42

Like petrified, like turned to stone, or were they just like frozen, like in fear type petrified?

Speaker 2: 1:01:48

Like did they die? No, like what a petrified. Like petrified is like. Yeah, I see what you mean. No, they were literally turned to stone, got it? Because if you have a petrified wood, it's almost like it's a stony substance. Right?

Speaker 1: 1:02:03

So just, they were just Medusa's minions.

Speaker 2: 1:02:06

Yeah, medusa's minions, right, that's the best way to look at it.

Speaker 1: 1:02:09

Bring it back again. They kind of Power Ranger'd up where they all morphed together, yep, and they shot out their Medusa beam.

Speaker 2: 1:02:17

It's like Edgewood or Burnwood I'll have to look it up, but it's very much similar. Gotcha, they're like X-Files man. We could really get into this. Now, now that we're wrapping up the episode, I'm going to start naming off all these different great sci-fi shows Fringe, fringe yeah, fringe was great. Yep, I think X-Files was, you know, really great.

Speaker 1: 1:03:37

show. Did you ever watch that? Yeah, there's so many great sci-fi shows sci-fi, though that's more.
