And we're back with an all-new episode of Keep It. I'm Iron Madness in the third.

0:14.4

I'm Louis Fertel and I as of this taping and up on the hottest show on television. And do you know what that is?

0:21.7

Mmm, let me guess. Something old.

0:26.4

You are correct. It is sysk-galan-ebert. Guys, I don't know how this happened to me.

0:31.7

I think literally on Twitter, now more so than even like a year ago, people just say things like,

0:38.8

I miss ebert now more than ever. And I love Roger Ebert. Like, I love reading his old reviews.

0:45.5

If I'm watching something that's from 2012 or before, I always look up what he says, which is crazy.

0:50.4

Because it means I care about a straight man's opinion, which constitutionally is not my thing.

1:48.7

they literally did a 10 best of the year episode in movies, going from the 70s on through till gene's death in the late 90s.

2:00.2

And it's something like, it's the combination of Roger Ebert's fair, but kind of poetically sympathetic point of view.
