| 0:00.0 | Hello dear listeners and welcome back to another episode of What Went Wrong, your favorite |
| 0:24.9 | podcast full stop that just so happens to be about movies and how it's nearly impossible |
| 0:30.9 | to make them let alone a good one. And I have to imagine it must have been literally |
| 0:35.6 | impossible to make one this good. I don't understand how this movie exists. |
| 0:40.9 | Nope. I remember when I sat in theaters and just heart rate was at 150, the whole time. |
| 0:46.7 | Yep. For two hours straight. Before we get into this film, as always, I'm Chris |
| 0:51.6 | Winnerbauer here with Lizzie Bassett, a quick shout out. We have a fun little, well, kind |
| 0:57.9 | of sad little ripped from the headlines episode on our Patreon available for y'all about |

| 1:45.2 | New listeners voted. And if you don't know, you can vote for one episode a month on our |
| 1:50.0 | Patreon. So make sure you go over there and vote. This one pretty much by a landslide. |
| 1:56.1 | And it is Mad Max Fury Road. Now I knew this was a troubled production. I had no idea |
| 2:05.6 | that I was getting myself into with this movie. My main source today is a really, really |
| 2:14.5 | awesome book. If you are watching on video, I will show you the cover right now. It is blood, |
| 2:20.2 | sweat, and chrome, the wild and true story of Mad Max Fury Road by Kyle Buchanan. It's excellent. |
