morally corrupt. It's the show about all things Bravo from the house wise to

summer house and everything in between. We'll be mentioning it all every week. Check it out on Spotify and the Ringer.com.

I need support staff to clear the room. Stand up and walk now. Hello and welcome to the watch. My name is Chris

0:37.0

Ryan. I am an editor at theRinger.com and joining me on the other line from his podcast

0:43.6

Purchase is sewer in Albuquerque. It's an angry wall. I know you're referencing tonight's episode of Better Call Saul and I want to be clear. I did not arrive in Albuquerque via that sewer line, but I did leave that way.

0:58.4

Andy, it's great to see your face. It's Monday afternoon when we're recording. This is going to be going up after the mid season finale of Better Call Saul and we will be breaking down that episode. We're also going to talk a bit about Barry, which we haven't done in a couple of weeks, but which I was absolutely

1:12.5

perhaps disturbingly delighted by this week. We thought we'd just start the beginning of the pod with a little bit of chat about our guide Tom Cruz is about to fly back into our lives with Top Gun Maverick. How do you feel about a CR AG movie theater experience for that one? Should we do that?

1:30.1

Oh my God. First of all, I'm a little moved. You call me. I would love that. I would love to be your radar guy. I will sit behind you.

1:38.8

Kyle, would you come to the east side for that? Or like, what if we met somewhat centrally? This is to see the movie? Yeah, sure. I think that would be fun. We'll watch outing.

1:47.2

Could we pod immediately after it's like from the lobby? We could also like go get like a tequila and a beer.

1:54.8

Oh, by the way, I'm really ready for this post pandemic CR hangs where usually you're like a burger and a beer beer like first liquor than a beer. Food DVD.

2:06.8

Yeah, I'm trying to squeeze as much out as I can. Look, let's talk a little bit about Tom Cruz because obviously Top Gun, we talked about Andy's maiden voyage with Pete Mitchell a couple of weeks ago.

2:17.8

He got to watch Top Gun for the first time. That was a very amusing anecdote. I love that. But today, I guess it came out yesterday. We got a trailer for Mission Impossible 7.

2:28.8

Colin dead reckoning. Comma part one, I believe. I don't even know if all that punctuation is in there, but I tell I think of it Hollywood's Grimerian.

2:38.8

And we were chatting a little bit about this Andy before we recorded and I was like, holy shit, you know, just a chill year to wait for this.

2:47.8

Yeah, yeah.

2:48.8

And you were like, what would you tell me what you thought?

2:51.8

Okay, so this trailer dropped. Let's set the stage for this. I'm so excited for this movie. I like most people correctly believe that these are the most consistently entertaining big budget franchise films that Hollywood makes.

3:11.8

I believe that Tom Cruz has made a bet with the world that he will just keep making these until he dies and an exploding helicopter and train accident. It's a bet we've accepted. We hope it doesn't happen, but keep making them and we'll see.
