| 0:00.0 | I was watching It's a Wonderful Life recently, right? |
| 0:02.5 | It was like on TV and I mean, I've seen it a bunch. |
| 0:07.0 | We've all seen it a bunch. |
| 0:08.4 | I've seen it once. |
| 0:09.3 | Well, that's a bunch for you. |
| 0:10.9 | Yeah, for me. |
| 0:12.2 | Relatively speaking. |
| 0:12.9 | You've only seen it once. |
| 0:14.8 | Yeah, I was a one and done with that movie. |
| 0:17.2 | The fact that the villain in It's a Wonderful Life is an old rich man in a wheelchair is bonkers. |
| 0:29.9 | He's in a wheelchair? |
| 0:31.3 | That movie, Mr. Potter is in a wheelchair, the whole movie. |

That's what this is. Oh my God. I wonder if that's why they did it, frankly. I was like, I mean, the balls on these people. be like you're going to hate this man, even though he's in a goddamn wheelchair. |
| 1:19.1 | I mean, they don't make movies like that anymore. |
| 1:21.7 | They don't commit like that. |
| 1:23.6 | The woke police would never let that happen today. |
| 1:26.8 | Oh, I think it's the opposite. I think it's like, you think you want to feel sorry for this man? Turn around because he is a fucking villain. He's going to destroy this town. Even people in wheelchairs can be terrible. That is actually excellent representation. Yeah. If it had been 20, it would have been released 20 to 30 years later, |
| 1:44.7 | he would have also been a little fay. A little bit. Yeah. I mean, Mr. Potter. A confirmed bachelor. I was going to say Mr. Potter is not married. Canonically in the film. So it is possible that old man Potter. And when he turns like the town into Potter'sville, it becomes basically a big sex show. |
