| 0:00.0 | So, Ashley, for any time-traveling character, a character like Kang the Conqueror, a comic |
| 0:20.1 | book time-traveler character that can insert himself into any point at continuity, do you |
| 0:26.8 | think this creates better opportunities for good stories or worse opportunities for good stories? |
| 0:33.1 | Because I'm just going to let the listeners, you know, we're here to talk about all the Kang |
| 0:36.6 | the Conqueror stuff, but man, we are going to be like going backwards and forwards on the timeline |
| 0:42.2 | like a rollercoaster. Okay, I'm ready to like throw some heat on the shrimps on the bar hot |

| 1:47.7 | and welcome to Geek History lesson, everybody. I am Jason Blueface Inman. |
| 1:52.5 | I'm Ashley Victoria Robinson. Welcome to your mind university because you have stumbled onto the |
| 1:56.9 | podcast where we take one character, construct or Jonathan Major's character for popular culture |
| 2:01.3 | and teach you everything you need to know about it and about an hour and this week, |
| 2:04.5 | Professor Jason is being very brave after teaching monel and then going to try to teach us about |
