| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome back to Well Played presented by this game. I'm Caroline Henderson. And I'm Blake Morgan. It's so echoey in this room. I know it is. And I shot myself on the foot because I was late because I completely missed track of time because I'm moving. So my brain is just like over there. Scramble eggs. Scramble eggs. Running like a chicken with its head caught off. So I wore this dress that you can't tell it's a dress. Yeah, you might think it's for Valentine's night, but actually today's Chinese New Year. Oh my God, happy New Year. Thank you. It's the year of the horse. I know that. And this past year was the year of the snake. Girl, I didn't even know that, but I think you're right. And it's all about shedding. And there was something else about, like, the horse is like new beginnings and change. I think in ambition and just drive. And like run. Something was running because of like the galaxy. To be honest, I only ever care what it's my year. And I think it hasn't been my year in a while. But if you were born in 1954, oh, my dad's year, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, or 2014, or this year. It's your year, babe. It's your year. Wait, oh, I didn't know that, like, that there were specific years. Which is why I'm like, Chinese astrology doesn't really make sense because, like, it's a whole, for a whole year's worth of babies. |
| 1:12.7 | Like, for a whole year? |
| 1:25.7 | Yeah, no, I don't understand. Yeah. But I just do know that it's the year of the horse. Yeah. So I wanted to wear red to wish you. Big year for the horse girls. For the horse girls. Big year for the horse girls. No, not Gigi. Bella, Hadee. Bella, yes. |
| 1:26.4 | Big year for Bella. |
| 1:27.4 | Yeah, don't confuse them. |
| 1:27.8 | My God. |
| 1:29.2 | How was your silent retreat? |
| 1:27.5 | Oh, it't confuse them. My God. |
| 1:28.0 | How was your silent retreat? |
| 1:30.4 | Oh, it went really well. Oh, I was going to say mine did not. It went pretty well. Well, we talked to each other. We talked literally two seconds later. Yes, seconds after we stopped recording. Yeah, exactly. But it was nice to be back in my house and then now my house is upside down as you know. |
| 1:44.8 | I texted you on Saturday being like, like I know it's Saturday night, but I have to talk to you about something that we'll talk about in the show. And you were like, don't worry, bitch, I'm home. And I was like. For once, I know. I was like, my girl. I've just been home every single weekend night. Yeah, as you should. Welcome to the Dark Side. It's glorious over here. Wait, speaking of Welcome to the Dark Side, I watched the first Star Wars. |
| 2:04.0 | Oh. |
| 2:04.6 | The other night. Yeah. As you should, welcome to the dark side. It's glorious over here. |
| 2:01.1 | Wait, speaking of Welcome to the Dark Side, I watched the first Star Wars the other night. |
| 2:05.2 | Not my vibe. I haven't seen it. Usually not my vibe because I don't like sci-fi that much. And actually, it was so bad. Oh, it was really bad. Oh, people are going to come forward to that. And I think it's just because we're so used to like Marvel level action fighting scenes, |
| 2:16.3 | but like it was a little pathetic. |
| 2:18.2 | I'm not going to lie. |
| 2:18.6 | People love Star Wars. |
| 2:19.9 | You're going to get attacked. |
| 2:20.9 | I know. so used to like Marvel level action fighting scenes, but like it was a little pathetic. I'm not going to |
| 2:18.6 | lie. People love Star Wars. You're going to get attacked. I know. And that's why, I mean, it's kind of rage bait. I don't know if our audience loves it that much, but I heard that the four or five, six ones, the prequel that come out like when we were kids, those are really good. So I will continue watching just to watch those. Okay, I probably will never watch, but I appreciate your commitment to the cause. |
| 2:36.5 | Thank you. Yes. I probably will never watch. |
