| 0:00.0 | What's going on? |
| 0:14.2 | And I'm DJ. |
| 0:16.8 | And this is mostly nitpicking, a weekly podcast where we pick apart pop culture. |
| 0:21.9 | Shoot, I looked at the wrong one. |
| 0:23.1 | Damn it. |
| 0:23.5 | What we do is we analyze a pop culture thing by looking exclusively at the detail. |
| 0:27.9 | Are we keeping it? |
| 0:29.1 | Yeah, whatever. |
| 0:30.0 | I haven't changed the Twitter bio yet. |
| 0:32.7 | So I'm going to do that right now. |
| 0:34.4 | There we go. |
| 0:35.7 | DJ, how are you doing in this fine trying time where Twitter |
| 0:39.7 | bios are all over the place? It's so trying with all these Twitter bios. I'm doing well. |
| 0:45.5 | Before we get started, listeners, if you notice that new theme music that was dropped into the intro, I was going to say dropped into your feeds, but I guess it's just with the episode. We have new intro music in case you didn't notice. It was made by Friend of the Show, Nicholas Prokero. He goes by Nick. Don't call him Nicholas. Yeah. Nick Perkero. He made the Mad Brackett Satis theme music, and I love that, and I somehow love this one even more. I think it's got that cool upy feeling, but also with that, like, detective thing, like not detective thing, but it goes like with our mostly nitpicking and magnifying glass thing. I just really, really like it. Yeah, it's got a kind of groovy vibe. I don't know exactly how to describe it either, but it's terrific. It's like the best. It's my new favorite song. Yeah. So if you'd like to see any of his other work, you could follow him on Twitter at Nick underscore Prokero on Twitter and Nick Prokero.com. Yeah. So check him out. It's just such a great theme. |
| 1:45.7 | Yeah, it's really good. |
| 1:46.6 | Yeah, I was listening to it a lot the other day because it's only 30 seconds long and you can listen to it easily, you know, two or three times in a row. Just work out of the gym. Yeah, there's just so much out to. Yeah, I love it. It's so great. And I mean, it's great just in general, but it also beats the hell out of whatever theme we used to have, which is fine. It was a fine theme, but so much better. It was free. Exactly. And this only cost us millions of dollars. I know, those royalties. Nick, I hope you're going to enjoy those royalties. Buy yourself a new small Yeager with all that money. |
| 2:20.2 | However, much money that would cost seemingly a lot, but maybe actually not that much. |
| 2:25.0 | It's so confusing. |
| 2:26.7 | What movie are we discussing today, DJ? |
| 2:28.9 | And why? |
| 2:30.1 | Do we have the specific listener who suggested this one? |
| 2:35.9 | Oh boy, I'm not totally sure. |
