[00:00:18] Speaker A: Welcome to Friendly Competition, a podcast to discover the best of all time. I'm Nick Carey, alongside my co host and best friend, Cody Lena, discuss various pop culture topics and narrow it down to truly the best of all time.
[00:00:30] Speaker B: Or as we like to call it, the boat. Before Nick set foot on the boat, we put him into a sweet 16 style tournament. We argue each round till we decide on winner. Nick, what criteria do we use? We decide to set foot on the boat.
[00:00:39] Speaker A: Whatever the hell we want. Cody, you want to tell them what we're talking about this season?
[00:00:42] Speaker B: Absolutely. To celebrate the new X Men e movie stuff that's coming out. What is it? It's like there's a deadpool and then a Walmart.
[00:00:48] Speaker A: Wolverine.
[00:00:49] Speaker B: Yeah. To celebrate that, we're getting into it, too. We want to get our hands on the balls, so we put our hands on the balls, and we're gonna figure out what the best X Men is.
[00:00:57] Speaker A: That is correct. And, folks, we are in group D, so that means Group A, B, and C have happened. So go listen to those. What we did was we went to ranker.com, we looked up the best x men of all time. We took that list of the 16 that was voted on by the. The public, I guess, is the best way to say it. And then we gave that to our bracketologists. They randomized it. And here, folks, is who we have in Group D. We have the three seed magneto going up against the 14 seed shadow cat slash kitty pride going up. And then on the next matchup, we have the six seed mystique going up against the eleven seed Wolverine. Cody, where do you want to start?
[00:01:41] Speaker B: Let's start with mystique versus Wolverine. Nick, why is Wolverine so cool? Like, what is it that tapped into.
It's literally tapped into, like, a universal coolness.
[00:01:52] Speaker A: It's. It is. I've been struggling in this. We've had three episodes, right? And I've been trying to think of, like, okay, knowing we have Wolverine. I know that's what we know. That's what y'all been waiting for. We get that. We didn't put. We didn't mean to put him at the end, but here he is.
[00:02:07] Speaker B: He should have been in Group A with all the other heavy hitters. If you took gambit out of group A and put in Wolverine, dear Lord.
[00:02:14] Speaker A: Right? But the more I try to, like, figure it out, right? Because, like, the thing that we like about him is that he's kind of a jerk. He's kind of a dick. But I'm trying to think of like, okay, what are those moments where he, like, shows us that softer side?
And it's like, my problem is. And this is my greater problem with society, I feel like we give way too much credit when shitty asshole dudes do one nice thing that is the bare minimum of what nice should be.
[00:02:44] Speaker B: For some reason, I'm literally. Maybe I made this up, or maybe it was actually one of the earlier X Men movies. I'm thinking there's a whole movie where he's got rogue with him. You know that one? The first one, I think. And I think there's, like, one scene where Rogue's asleep, and he. And she's like, the blanket kind of falls off her, and he puts it back on, and that's supposed to be, like, the whole redeeming thing of him. It's like, well, he put a blanket on her, bruh. He's threatened her life. He's killed a bunch of people. He's literally a dick to everyone for no reason. I saw him push an old lady over because she was standing in a crosswalk. And this is fine, right? But at the end of the day, Nick, it is. He's so cool.
[00:03:21] Speaker A: Like, okay, so, Mike, I wonder. My question becomes so much more about, like, how much is it, the powers versus the character? Because, like, let's all be clear, too. Whatever it is about claws coming out of your. The middle parts of your fingers, that is. I don't. I don't. Maybe I'm wrong. Cody, you can. You can hit me back.
[00:03:41] Speaker B: No, you're absolutely correct, dude. Badass.
[00:03:43] Speaker A: That's like. Cause I feel like you went your whole. Before you saw Wolverine, right? Before the first time you got to, like, experience Wolverine. You never even realized that blades could come out of the in between.
[00:03:54] Speaker B: I didn't know that was an option.
[00:03:55] Speaker A: This was just wasted space on your hand. You're like, I don't. I guess it just separates my fingers, and then they're like, what if, though, we put swords in between your fingers?
[00:04:05] Speaker B: It's so wild, too, because he's like, there, right? If you could erase your whole memory of Wolverine and know nothing, and you get introduced to him as a character, you're like, oh, this guy's kind of an asshole. He's a dick. Oh, and then the second those claws come out, you're like, oh, he's my favorite.
[00:04:16] Speaker A: Yeah. Sick. Actually. Never mind. Wait, he did? Wait, I said you was, but you're telling me he does put that blanket on her to make sure she's not cold. Oh, he's not bad. Okay.
[00:04:26] Speaker B: He's a great guy.
[00:04:27] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:04:27] Speaker B: Oh, oh, it's fine. He's trying to hook up with Cyclops, his wife, for 30 fucking years, right?
[00:04:31] Speaker A: Win. And it is clear that she's like, she maybe gives him the time of day, but in that way that, like, I feel like women are just nice to men, and, like, all of a sudden, a man's like, so you really want. You probably want to fuck me. And she's like, I don't. I have no desire in having sex with you, Wolverine. I really don't. The only time that you've ever thought I had desire to have sex with you was when it was mystique. Like, yeah, that was mystique, dude.
[00:04:56] Speaker B: I know it wasn't me.
[00:04:59] Speaker A: I know it looked like me. It sounded like me. It felt like me. It wasn't at all. So you got to get over it, boys. Like, I'll come back around. Don't worry. Okay.
[00:05:10] Speaker B: I'll be back. Don't worry. I know that was you, and you're just blaming Mystique.
[00:05:14] Speaker A: Yeah, it's like, dude, you saw her turn into mystique. Nah, that's your mental. Probably some mental you did. Anyway, don't worry about it. I'm going to call chasing you.
[00:05:23] Speaker B: Call me when you need to throw down. It's like, jesus Christ, Wolverine. Mystique, she can transform and look like anyone, sound like anyone, basically be anyone. I think she transforms it, like a DNA level. So she even leaves your DNA behind, right, exactly.
[00:05:35] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. Well, and that's. And she's. I do think, like, the way, like, she gets used, I think almost more realistically than anyone. Like, they're like, oh, where's Mystique? She's in Congress. She constantly is acting as. As political officials.
[00:05:48] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, absolutely.
[00:05:50] Speaker A: All you would do. Why wouldn't you?
[00:05:52] Speaker B: As far as, like, the thing about mystique that I love, as far as the character, I think she's badass because she is realistic. Like, oh, I can look like anyone, and she just manipulates the whole system.
[00:06:01] Speaker A: Right?
[00:06:02] Speaker B: You can't. Anytime, any arc that has mystique involved instantly becomes a mystery arc because you don't know who you're talking to. Ever.
[00:06:09] Speaker A: Ever.
[00:06:10] Speaker B: Right.
[00:06:11] Speaker A: You always have that feeling of, like, this is probably this one. No, I don't think Mystique would turn into this. You don't know that, though.
[00:06:16] Speaker B: Yeah, she might turn into a beach ball. I don't know.
[00:06:21] Speaker A: It's like, literally, Professor X is, like, one of the only people who can be like, mystique's. In the room, by the way, you guys.
[00:06:26] Speaker B: Like, hey, but he doesn't even know which one it is, you know?
[00:06:29] Speaker A: But he just, like, he can sense her. Like, he. Because, you know, he can sense mutants. So he's just like, hey, she's in here. Like, she's in the building, y'all. Like, that is wild. Like, and I would like, I do think of powers that get used in the way. Like, that's exactly.
[00:06:41] Speaker B: I'm just imagining that scene from. I think he should leave where he's in the hot dog suit. He's like, hey, I want to figure out who it is. Just like everybody else.
That's Xavier. When Xavier's like, mystique's in this room, she comes up. I also want to find, okay, here's the problem. I like Mystique.
[00:07:00] Speaker A: I think Mystique is cool. Mystique would be a dark horse in any other situation, but it's Wolverine, my dude. Dude, I.
[00:07:07] Speaker B: Why is he so cool?
[00:07:09] Speaker A: It doesn't. It.
[00:07:11] Speaker B: It's the truly boggles clause.
[00:07:13] Speaker A: Like, you guys need to understand, Wolverine voted for Trump. Like, well, he can't canadian, because he's canadian. But, like, he is on that side. There is no getting around. Everything about this man would lead us to believe that he is. Shoot, probably very conservative. He is an ass. He is. He is your asshole uncle. But he does a cool party trick. And you're like, he's not that bad. He said he.
[00:07:38] Speaker B: He definitely. When he's talking about politics, he definitely refers to those people, right?
Like, whoa, hey, wait.
[00:07:46] Speaker A: What. The only other. The only other thing that he could be. And we can talk about this in when we. Whoever his matchup is against. But, like, he also. Either that or. Or Wolverine is the in is the ultimate incel loves anime, loves him. A good japanese storyline. Like, loves to get out to Japan. You know, homeboy got that Jean Grey pillow.
[00:08:08] Speaker B: He does. You know, he's got it.
[00:08:10] Speaker A: He's always.
[00:08:11] Speaker B: We actually have the meme of him just looking at a picture of Jean Grey all the time.
[00:08:14] Speaker A: It's like, get over it. Also, what a wild thing. Like, if, you know, he puts in his backpack, it's not just, like, out on his tabletop, like, where everyone can see in school. Cause that would be insane. Imagine discovering that if you like, how infuriating it must be for cyclops to just be like, hey, man, can you stop? Like, if one of your friends or co. Just co workers. Just co workers. Every time you brought your wife around to, like, the holiday party just kept being like, so when are we going to do this thing?
I would. Hey, Logan, could you stop talking to my wife? It really makes her uncomfortable. It's not okay that you do that.
[00:08:49] Speaker B: What would you do if a coworker had a fucking picture of your wife in a frame in their backpack, right.
[00:08:55] Speaker A: And, like, sometimes pulls it out and you're like, what are you looking at? Nothing.
I don't get it, but I love the guy. We're going to move him on where he will go up against either the three seed magneto or the 14 seed shadow cat slash kitty pride. I know her better as Kitty pride, but she. But shadow cat as her is her name. For those of you who maybe not be aware. Cause I do think of the ones that we have on this list that we got from rancor. I was a little bit surprised to see shadow cat on here. It make. Making that cut comes in at 14 on their list. Oh, that's fun. Again. Once again. So, Cody, why don't you educate the people, though? You seem to. I know. I'm not gonna say, like, you're like that. This is like your favorite character or anything like that, but you even helped me understand some stuff I didn't know about her. So if you don't mind, tell the people a little bit about.
[00:09:40] Speaker B: Yeah. So shadow cat, she's a teenage girl, and her power is basically, she is the great wonka glass elevator of people. She can go through walls, she can phase through any solid matter, and she can walk up, down, left, race sideways, slight ways, round ways, long ways, round ways, whatever way she wants.
[00:10:01] Speaker A: Yeah. She can step on air. She physically, if she. If she thinks she wants to go up, if she's standing still, wants to go up, she just puts her foot up and pushes upwards. And now she has moved physically up.
[00:10:14] Speaker B: Yes. Sometimes it. Sometimes they, like, will animate it so it looks like she's flying and stuff, but technically, you can just travel 3d space like it's solid. So.
[00:10:23] Speaker A: Right, there you go. Right. I mean, pretty cool. I mean, cool of powers that you're gonna like. This is someone, I feel like if I am setting up a team, and especially if we're gonna have to do a bunch of, like, either recon or we're gonna have to, you know, bust into a lot of places. Shadow cats is a top five pick on. On a team where that's gonna be expected a lot.
[00:10:44] Speaker B: Here's the thing. If I'm Magneto and I'm trying to. Cause Magneto's the anti hero version of the X Men. Right, Magneto? I. You know, I'm trying to get kitty pride on my team. Cause I'm trying to get here. I'm like, hey, you don't want to be a savior once he's got you going through doors to unlock it. So psychopaths can walk in. That big, dumb freak. He can't even fight without sunglasses. You really want to follow him, you should follow me. We can rob banks.
[00:11:08] Speaker A: Like, let's go, dog. Yeah, it's like, hey, we. Come on. Like, I agree with you. It's. It's one of those times where grace, gratefully, she has. She keeps it on the good side. Cause she is a menace to society otherwise.
[00:11:20] Speaker B: Absolutely.
[00:11:21] Speaker A: If she wants to be. Could you imagine her, like, if she's not even that evil, but she just joins the WNBA, and, like, all of her dunks just look like she's just like. Cause, like, Jordan has that one where his legs are kind of moving under him while he's dunking. And you're like, oh, that's interesting. But for her, it's literally her just walking on air to get to it.
[00:11:40] Speaker B: She be immune to traveling. Like, if I was her, I just walk up, like, 12ft in the air. You just toss me the ball, and I just walk over the hoop and just gently place it in every.
[00:11:48] Speaker A: Take your three steps. Take your three steps.
[00:11:51] Speaker B: She takes many steps. She wants. She isn't touching the ground.
[00:11:53] Speaker A: Okay, well, now you're asking a very, I don't know, enough basketball knowledge to know, do your three steps have to be on the court?
[00:11:59] Speaker B: Yes. Cause that's what a step is. How they count a step.
Second question about her. Can you imagine if you just. She just come up through your floor all the time? She'd be the worst roommate.
[00:12:09] Speaker A: He does come up through floors all the time. That is what homegirls through walls. Yeah. That is one of her favorites. Yeah, right? Yeah. There's nothing you can block her. There would be. No, she wants to see you. She going to see you.
[00:12:24] Speaker B: Yeah. There's nothing you can do about. Oh, my God. She'd be a terrible wronged ex girlfriend.
[00:12:28] Speaker A: Oh, no.
[00:12:29] Speaker B: If you date. If you date Kitty Pryde, you treat her like a goddamn princess. And do not break her heart. Let her break you, because she could. She will haunt your dreams. Literally. It'll be like having an. Can you imagine? You break up with her and you wake up in the middle of the night and you see her float up from the floor. Like, you have no idea what's a nightmare. If this is, like, one of those waking dreams. If this is the shadow man that's come to sit on your chest and make you die, you're scared of kitty.
[00:12:57] Speaker A: And they're a boarding school too, right? So you're just like. You start dating someone else. You maybe have them in your room you're just making out of. And then all of a sudden, you see her head just phase through the wall and just walk. You. What are you. No. Just ruining it for you every step of the way.
[00:13:12] Speaker B: Too powerful. Here's the problem. I think, again, this is a round of dark horses that could have had a chance, but won't because she's going up against Magneto.
[00:13:20] Speaker A: It's. Yeah. I mean, like, you know, although we did. It is crazy. We didn't let. We did not move Professor X through.
He didn't get out his first round. So it wouldn't be unprecedented.
[00:13:31] Speaker B: No. Well, here it would be.
[00:13:33] Speaker A: It would. Let me be clear that it would be every. Okay.
[00:13:36] Speaker B: Professor X and Magneto are foils of each other, right?
[00:13:39] Speaker A: Right. Yes.
[00:13:40] Speaker B: Magneto. Professor X keeps Magneto grounded as, like, a person. He's what reminds you that press X reminds you that Magneto was a good person and is. Still has good ideas, but has just been wronged so many times that he's kind of gone to the dark side.
[00:13:53] Speaker A: Right? Yeah. Right. Exactly.
[00:13:55] Speaker B: And Magneto exists to make Professor X interesting at all.
[00:13:59] Speaker A: Fair. Yeah, you're right. Without Magneto, Professor X is just kind of like a hippie. Lose. You're like, all right, well, we got it. Exactly.
[00:14:06] Speaker B: So Magneto's way cooler.
[00:14:08] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:14:08] Speaker B: He's gotta be magneto, dude.
[00:14:10] Speaker A: Infinitely cool. You're right.
[00:14:11] Speaker B: We'll talk about him against Wolverine, but I'm not gonna hit Magneto. Now, we gave kitty pride her. Her time in the sun, but.
[00:14:17] Speaker A: But it was always Magneto. All right, I'm with you here. Let's move Magneto on into the next round where he goes with Wolverine. Hey, everyone, we get it. He controls metal. Macd. Wolverine's made of metal. Ah ha ha. Okay, we're past that.
[00:14:33] Speaker B: Yeah. Done.
[00:14:34] Speaker A: Okay, so here's my. The problem I have is mostly more of a problem with society than it is with these two characters. I think these are two great characters. Obviously.
[00:14:42] Speaker B: I love them both.
[00:14:42] Speaker A: Yeah.
My problem is the way in which I feel like society is bending towards Wolverine. I think. I think was a tro is a trojan horse.
But Magneto is very clear about how he wants to get things done, and I don't. This is the thing. Sometimes with comic book people, they start being like, yeah, Magneto's kind of onto something, and it all of a sudden becomes this. Like. Or, why. Why hasn't the right taken Magneto, like, use his helmet as, like, a symbol for them? Or just like, it's like, hey, we gotta do this.
[00:15:15] Speaker B: Here's the problem. Here's. This is. I get exactly what you're saying. Cause Magneto is showing us that, hey, fascism is gonna work in my way. I guess I'm gonna make it work.
[00:15:24] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:15:24] Speaker B: The reason I. The reason I think the right hasn't adopted Magneto as a thing is because at the end of the day, his fascism is still about equality.
[00:15:33] Speaker A: You know?
[00:15:34] Speaker B: He's like, I'm going to make it equal by force.
[00:15:37] Speaker A: Well, it is supremacy. He's like, no, we can get rid of humans. Or, like, you bow to us, recognize your inferiorness to us, and then we'll call it cool.
[00:15:47] Speaker B: Yeah. I just think it's because it's a race thing, man. I think it's just a race.
The fact that he doesn't care what color you are, if you are. If you're a furry animal or toad. He hangs out with toad. Okay.
[00:15:57] Speaker A: He hangs out with toad. Yeah.
[00:15:59] Speaker B: They can't abide by that.
[00:16:00] Speaker A: You can't have a toad in the group. You can't have a man with race with a tongue and knows how to use it. Nuh uh.
[00:16:06] Speaker B: Or maybe actually, let's just. I think the right probably just doesn't understand Magneto, and that's why they haven't.
[00:16:12] Speaker A: It could be some of that, too. Well, also, it's a little bit different when you pick the villain in the book, in the story.
[00:16:19] Speaker B: Absolutely. Yeah.
[00:16:20] Speaker A: It's a.
[00:16:20] Speaker B: You.
[00:16:20] Speaker A: It's a little bit harder for you when you're like, man, all my ideas seem to line up very closely with the villain.
[00:16:28] Speaker B: I want to say this, but I don't want it to be taken the wrong way. I've always looked at Magneto and X as both being good guys, but one's like a super antihero, and the one's like a very stalwart, you know, honorable hero.
[00:16:43] Speaker A: Well, right.
[00:16:43] Speaker B: I wouldn't even.
[00:16:44] Speaker A: Like we said, like I said, like I said in the. In the. I think the episode with professor. It's like Professor X is Martin Luther King and Magneto is. Is Malcolm X. Right. Like, exactly. That's very much. And that. And that's how I think we view those historical figures, too. Right. And. But, yeah. So. And for that reason, too. That's also the reason why they're right. Also, the neo Nazis can't take Magneto. He's very clear about his stance on Nazis.
[00:17:04] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Cause he's not a fan as. As a survivor of the Holocaust. Turns out he's not a fan.
[00:17:11] Speaker A: Not a big. So it'd be like, hey, you got, you know, you guys can't have them. Even though. Similar concept. But he ain't you. That's one where everyone's gonna pick that apart right away at your first meeting where you're talking, oh, God, I would love.
[00:17:23] Speaker B: And there to be a comic where Magneto's doing his big speech. You know, he always gives us big speeches and there's, like, a bunch of people coming out and protesting and stuff. And the Nazis show up to like, be like, yeah, we're on team Magneto. And he just rips them apart. No, we do not want you here.
[00:17:36] Speaker A: No dog for me, dude. You ain't mine.
[00:17:38] Speaker B: I want votes, but not yours.
[00:17:40] Speaker A: Yeah, right. He's like, I'll do it without it.
[00:17:41] Speaker B: Yeah, these guys are radical. Here's the thing.
[00:17:45] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:17:45] Speaker B: I think Magneto's story is really cool and as a character is really cool and flawed to. Yeah, fuck Wolverine, too, man. Wolverine's just. So you got claws.
[00:17:54] Speaker A: What is it?
Cause if it was. If it was finger claw, like, there are people who have finger.
[00:18:00] Speaker B: Saber tooth. Saber tooth.
[00:18:01] Speaker A: Saber. Yep. Saber tooth. Lady Deathstrike. There are some. Or even X 23 has it. So that way two of them come out. Only two come out.
[00:18:09] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:18:09] Speaker A: You have Daken, who. It comes out from under his arm. So it, like, none of those are as cool. Are nearly as cool as three blades of. Right through the fingertips or right through your, like, knuckles. I don't know. It. It's one of those things where it's just like. It's like seeing a beautiful sunset. There's not. There's no notes.
[00:18:28] Speaker B: Yeah, you can't.
[00:18:29] Speaker A: You're just stuck there being like, sorry, I don't know what it is. We will fit. We'll talk about it further. But I. Magneto is. Is baller.
[00:18:39] Speaker B: I love Magneto.
[00:18:40] Speaker A: Great head of hair, by the way. But I don't. I'm. I get why you have to wear the helmet, buddy. I get it. You don't want. You don't want to get in your dome.
[00:18:48] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah.
[00:18:48] Speaker A: I get that.
That hair, though, you got. You got such a great in care. It's always like, these white locks that just perfectly flow. Got this great head of hair that I'm always like, I'm sorry, magneto like, I'm so bummed for you.
[00:19:04] Speaker B: I'm sorry you gotta hide your light under a helmet, man.
[00:19:06] Speaker A: Yeah, right. It's just not fair. It's just not fair to you. And compared to that bald bitch, like, it's such a better you would be flex. It sucks that the best way to flex on him is your hair, not even your powers. Because, you know, Professor X is like, I want it so bad that maybe you just show it to him. He'd back down. He'd be like, I can't. You're the superior, dude. Look at those locks. You win, dude.
[00:19:31] Speaker B: Every part.
Every part of my mind wants to vote for Magneto. I love his story. I love his powers. I love the struggle he goes through, how he kind of goes from good to bad to good to bad.
[00:19:40] Speaker A: And why is he in this X Men bracket? Because he has led the X, Mendez. Like, yeah, under, like, when Professor X has died and things like that. It's like, I don't. Well, I think in the new 97, that's the whole point, is he actually, like, wills the X Men two magneto. And, like, that's, like. So he's obviously even trusted. Like, it's like, no, you could lead him, like, you know, hey, don't.
[00:20:01] Speaker B: Yeah, it's the claw. Wolverine's just so badass.
[00:20:06] Speaker A: Just so, like, I just feel like it's one of those things where he is. I think Wolverine just really represents, like, everyone's id. Right? We all would love to a call people, bub. We all want that. No one can do it. That's why you've never heard anyone call you bub, besides Wolverine. To who doesn't want to handle situations the way Wolverine does. You can't, because you would be an asshole.
[00:20:32] Speaker B: He's what I would. He would also qualifies as a meat slapper, by the way.
[00:20:35] Speaker A: Yeah. When he goes down. Yeah. He goes. He goes hard. Yeah, he's. Well, and that's. I mean, that's the other thing, right? There's never been a baddie too big.
[00:20:42] Speaker B: Oh, yeah.
[00:20:43] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:20:43] Speaker B: He's got no fear. I just respect him. Welcome to Wolverine. We got to do our research, so I'll figure out why.
[00:20:48] Speaker A: Yeah, why. I'm going to go talk to a psychologist. I think I'm going to book a therapist appointment. And I'm just like, I need to break down Wolverine from.
[00:20:57] Speaker B: Okay, if. Do you think. If that person that had the two claws. I can't remember the name. If we saw first X 23, do you think he'd be like, we'd be more into two claws. Or do you think if we saw Wolverine second and the three clause came out like, that's it? I think it'd still be that.
[00:21:11] Speaker A: I think it'd be that because you. Because it. Hers come. Like, she doesn't have the middle class. She has the two. So you'd be. You would know. You'd be like, why don't you have a middle one? She'd get a middle one. And then Wolverine shows up with a middle one. Like, see, I told you. Look fucking sick. I told you it'd be a better idea.
[00:21:24] Speaker B: Yeah, but didn't listen.
[00:21:25] Speaker A: Yeah. So it's just like. And, like. And we've. And like I said, daken has big one. Just a massive one. You're like, that's not it, though. It's three. It's three through the knuckles. It's the coolest thing. It's the cool. Yeah, it's the coolest super power. So, uh. Yeah, I'm with. I'm with. We gotta move Wolverine on. It just is. And we're gonna figure this out. We're gonna dissect this. We're gonna learn more about what it is about this beefy boy that we just can't get enough of.
[00:21:50] Speaker B: Can't get enough of it.
[00:21:51] Speaker A: Just can't. But, folks, we will do our research. That will happen next on this Friday on our final four episode. But until then, thank you all so much for listening.
