00:10 Jason Atwood: This is the 350th episode of CloudFocus Weekly for the first week of August and this year 2020. This episode is titled the Stream in Place. The And a long time of no podcasting, Justin Edelstein. Justin, how are you doing? Ah,

Justin Edelstein: Good question. I've been better. CloudFocus, whenever, living up to its name.

Jason Atwood: Yeah, well, and we're podcasting in the middle of a pandemic, so I think we're doing OK. And we're gonna take a break from our normal stuff that we do. Take a break from our break. We're gonna take a break from our break as this room is very warm. Can't turn on the AC in here because it would catch on the mic.

Justin Edelstein: My AC's on. It's gonna pop on at some point. You're all gonna hear it and I don't care. Okay. I care about you listeners.

Jason Atwood: I know. Who doesn't? Thank you for downloading. In 86.5 degrees in here. If I die, bandwagon, someone call the cops. Someone call COVID police. All right. We're going to do a fun episode since everybody is stuck at home with nothing to do but be at home. We're going to do a stream in place. We're going to talk about all the fun things. Go over a list of our 10. from 10 to one most favor. This things we're K streaming now and watching. We've done this episode a couple times, but this is for all those out there who need things to watch. We're going to talk about it. So I guess I can start with number 10 is or by the- way, we are using our remote. We are socially distancing ourselves. for now.

Jason Atwood: Right. Let me start. Actually, you always have to start. I always have to start.

Justin Edelstein: Wait, are we doing this in any specific order? You've mentioned an order, but like... I'm going to go from... Do we have to do it in any order?

Jason Atwood: I'm going to go from like this... Yes, I'm going to go from 10 to 1. So I have 10 things and then I'm going to go backwards. So yeah. So start with 10 and go down to 1. or just give me one.

Justin Edelstein: Give me one. All right, and mind you, some of these go back. We've been planning this episode for like, six months. Some of these go back to like, when I was having hip surgery and like was not really leaving the apartment and then they go back to, oh yeah, then that like whole shelter in place thing where I didn't leave the apartment for a long time. So. Some of these are not, I'm not watching them now. They're like, I watched them. They were good. Maybe you haven't. Check them out. All right. So I'll start with these. I really didn't do this in any particular day. I'm going to start with the chef show on Netflix.

03:14 Jason Atwood: Oh, nice. What's that about.

Justin Edelstein: So it's a spin off of the movie, a John Favreau movie. just called Chef or the Chef, something like that, where it's a fictional movie and he plays a chef who goes off and does a food truck thing. He's like, you know what, I'm done with this whole she-she-chef stuff and all the critics and all that. I'm going to go do a food truck. He finds himself. And in the Chef show, it's with renowned chef Roy Choi. John Favreau does a show, a cooking show with Roy Choi and they do like a real cooking show and I love half hour cooking shows. I grew up on them on PBS like watching like Yann Can Cook and Julia Child and all that. So it reminded me of that and Roy Choi was kind of like I want to say he was the inspiration sort of for the movie because this is his life kind of.

Justin Edelstein: He was classically trained French chef. grew up like or came up through like really classical restaurants and was trained and then said you know what I'm gonna go start a Korean barbecue taco food truck in LA and just became like wildly popular for his food truck scene and the chef show is all about just Roy Choi and Jon Favreau cooking stuff that is interesting to them and... I find those shows interesting.

Jason Atwood: So nice. I love that it's a it's a show, a reality show about real cooking based on a fictional show or fictional movie.

Justin Edelstein: That's a very weird which was based on the real thing anyway. So it's sort of like the full circle of it all. And that's what I like about their two seasons. You can check them out on Netflix. They're really good. I like them.

Jason Atwood: Fun fact, my father worked with Julia Childs. That is a fun fact. Fun fact. And PBS and WGBH. All right. Mine is actually a kudos to you platform like all of these like Pearl site. I mean, there's millions of them out there. But Master Quest, I guess is a little bit different in that it's, it's done by celebrities. So you get Ron Howard teaching directing or Neil deGrasse Tyson teaching about space or whatever. There's so so many. RuPaul has one. So they're just, they're really good. They are, they're time consuming. But I love Masterclass and that it's on all the platforms. So it's on your iPad, it can be on your phone, it can be on your Apple TV, and you can really scream it anywhere you are. And they come in little sections. So you can like 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 10 minutes.

Jason Atwood: So you don't have to sit through six hours. It's really fun. It's been interesting looking at certainly everything goes virtual now, virtual learning and virtual learning new things virtually is now becoming, I guess, even more and more important. So Check out Master Class. You can get, I think, monthly or yearly subscriptions. This subscription is pay. I think if you break it down, though, it's in the magnitude of Netflix, Hulu, World, and lots of content. And they keep adding new content, which is nice. Yeah, and they're just putting new content.

06:30 Justin Edelstein: I think today or yesterday looked interesting. It's not as much content like for the money. If you're thinking about bang for your buck, it's nowhere near what you're getting with like, Netflix or Disney Plus or any of the other things. But it's different content. So yeah,

Jason Atwood: Like a dozen that content exists nowhere else. Disney, Netflix, Hulu, HBO, sometimes there's overlapping stuff. It's like, oh, that movie's now over there. I went to try to watch a movie the other day. Don't F with- not F with cats.

Justin Edelstein: F as in F am ampersand C K. Yeah, I got it. Say the word. All right. So this is another one of the documentaries again on Netflix. Reminded me a little bit of, remember Icarus? The documentary where it started out like, let's do this blood doping and see how. fast I can go on a bike and it turned into this Russian doping scandal. Well, Don't F with Cats just reminded me of that because it's a three-part documentary series on that started by going after somebody who, let's just say, messed with a cat in the wrong way on the internet. Yeah. And it led to something completely different. Right. and It's three episodes. They're all about an hour, I think, and is totally one of those, like, if you're into, you know, that true crime stuff.

Justin Edelstein: If you're into, like, weird documentaries about the internet that sort of, like, go one way and then take a left turn and go the other way and then sort of, I don't know, make their way back around. It's a very weird one. But I really quite enjoyed it. I also really love cats. So the don't eff with cats resonated with me as well. Nice, nice.

Jason Atwood: You've now named two that I haven't seen. So good. These are good. The next for me is a double. So it's a combo. The first is... not an original pick is The Office, which is on Netflix. You can go and watch all the episodes of The Office or everything. And then- And then I'm going to combo it with The Office Ladies, which is a podcast. So it's two of the actors from The Office and every episode they do They recap an episode so for so I literally they're going season one episode one and then they they recap the episodes They go back they talk about it They talk about What's in it and so what's fun is you watch the original episode of the office which you know you're like Oh, I haven't seen the office and forever.

Jason Atwood: This is amazing. These are great Then you go listen to them talk about it. You can watch you know, you just match up the episodes Really funny And sometimes they get on extra guests, you know, extra people from it, talk about the back stuff, talk about the storylines that are going, on the back, talk about, you know, again, it's like gossip around the show. I never did this. I know Game of Thrones always had this type of thing and it's all these podcasts that, that locked the shows. But these two, and it's retrospective, obviously, cause it's, I mean, the office is like 10 years ago, they're now doing it now. They actually started it before COVID hit, and then there's a point where they're like, okay, now we're remote, and now we're just like we're doing.

10:05 Jason Atwood: So the Office, and and then the Office Ladies, which is a podcast found on any podcast world, wherever you want. Find it somewhere. Oh,

Justin Edelstein: I didn't know that we could just throw a podcast into here because... Okay, why not? I would have thrown just a straight up podcast in here.

Jason Atwood: Can I do a bonus pic? cast. No, you can just pick one that's streaming, anything that streams.

Justin Edelstein: So, hey. All right. Well, I'm going to keep going. I've been wearing Netflix heavy so far. I'm going to stick with it. I'm doing nothing. Of course you are. Found this show during the lockdown. It's really fun. It's called the repair shop. OK, have you heard of this one? No, there's so much on the Netflix so much days. So it's a British show called the repair shop. It's about each episode is about 30 to 40 minutes somewhere in there. And. People bring these old antiquey things. They could be clocks. They could be like old vases or like really nice pieces that need that are like shattered and need. Need to be put together. Basically, it's stuff that used to be really cool and needs to be fixed. Okay. And the repair shop is full of experts that can fix any darn thing.

Justin Edelstein: And it's so, so cool, the intricacy that they get into the like the creativity that comes with solving these problems that walk in their door. Like, they don old train toy that was from like 1912 or something. Let's see if we can get it to work with steam power and let's upgrade it or whatever. It's a really interesting show and they fix these things that you look at them and you're like, how are you going to do that? And then within the another sort of documentary sort of, I don't know, seeing on Netflix. I have to open my horizons. I'll get there. Yeah, eventually.

Jason Atwood: I'm starting here. I'll get to the more fun stuff. I'm doing self-enabling and my next one is, shame you some more. which I hope you've seen this. Don't shame me. I'm shaming you. I'm stream shaming you.

Justin Edelstein: In the shower shame you. Wait, what? I see you.

Jason Atwood: Oh, god, I'm sweating. The next one is for me on Netflix, a Netflix original. They landed based off her biography, which I have not read but is on my list to read, is becoming. which is the Michelle Obama book and documentary.

Justin Edelstein: Why? I'm so aggravated with Michelle and I love Michelle, but I'm aggravated with Michelle.

13:10 Jason Atwood: Okay, you remember this is not a political podcast.

Justin Edelstein: So this is not political. Okay. I'm annoyed because I want to listen to my podcast. It's only on Spotify and I don't use Spotify. And that's annoying to me.

Jason Atwood: This is happening. I don't like it. Joe Rogan's going over. I don't like it at all. I don't. First of all, just don't call it a podcast. Call it a show. And streaming show. Call it a podcast.

Justin Edelstein: If it's a podcast, it's open and free to, everyone, wherever. It should be. Yeah, it's like saying Master Class is a podcast. Well, it's not a podcast. It's, you know,

Jason Atwood: Whatever. I totally agree. But anyway, becoming that wouldn't be annoyed by her. She's baking money. That's her, you know, it's her income. Becoming it's on Netflix, you have to pay for it. But it's a great, I mean, again, not going to get into political things, not even close, not going to go around it. But in a time where you want to remember some good times, watching this show, which is, it's a documentary about her going on tour, basically, and the book tour. So it's just great, obviously. Brock's in it, and the kids, and her, and a lot of celebrities, because she goes from city to city on this crazy tour, you know, kicking off her book. Really fun. Documentary, just. You just, you fall over again. That's all. It's my move by them.

Justin Edelstein: My first non Netflix pick is an Amazon pick. And it's called Once Were Brothers. It's a movie that was supposed to be making its way through like the circuit right now of you know, all those film festivals, it did get its way into, I think, a few that were early in the year, maybe, Toronto or something, I don't know, don't want to pretend to know that stuff. But it's a documentary about my favorite band, The Band. But from the perspective of Robbie Robertson. And oftentimes when you read or see documentaries about the band, they're from the perspective of Levon Helm, which is just different opinions on the same thing. And it was nice to see Robbie's take on it because oftentimes he is vilified. And he comes off well in this and it was nice to see him come off well.

Justin Edelstein: It was nice to see everybody come off well. And for those who are a fan of the band, I recommend this. And I would also just recommend it for anyone who works in teams. Because the band was a collective. There were five individuals that, on their own, were nowhere near as good as the sum of their parts. So anyone who works on a team and want to, like, I don't know, get into some of those dynamics, it's all there in this documentary to talk about how they came together, what they did, how they made each other better, et cetera. It's an uplifting story. So once we're... brothers, you have to buy it on Amazon because it's not yet streaming on for those who have Amazon Prime because it's really supposed to be in the theaters right now.

16:49 Justin Edelstein: Nice, nice.

Jason Atwood: My next one, just moving along. This is a weird one, but I think it's fascinating. And I know lots of people are watching. There's, you know, there's only I guess there's one platform that I could think of. I guess Spotify does this a little bit. But that shows you how many people have watched something, right, which is YouTube. YouTube is the only thing that I know that when you log in, you can look at, oh, look, 10 million people have seen this video or not. So which we might do a whole episode about in the future, but I'm a little bit obsessed with Elon Musk and his adventures in the world, but one of his companies is called SpaceX. They are now the first commercially run commercial non-US non-government to put people in space, but like in the last 10 years.

Jason Atwood: No, the first one to ever do it in the end, the first time the US has put someone in space. astronauts in space. They just came back yesterday, actually. They were up at the space station. So it's a private company called SpaceX, and they're doing all sorts of launches. And what's cool about SpaceX is it's the first company to ever get reusable rockets. So the rockets go up, and then they launch, and then they come back down and they land. They literally land these rockets back down. It's unbelievable. And they put them all on YouTube. So you can watch it, and you can see the mission control, and you can see the different angles. And And sometimes they're like big missions, sometimes they're not, but basically anywhere to their missions you get to sort of watch on YouTube.

Jason Atwood: So the SpaceX launches, you'll find the SpaceX channel and you can subscribe to it and you can rewatch them obviously if you've missed it, but they're all time and day. But the one that they, they launched the astronauts was a big deal. I mean, there were millions and millions and millions of people watching because it was a big time, big deal. Like it's like watching the Challenger or not the Challenger or watching the space shuttle launches. is a It was a big deal. So if you have not seen them, if you have not heard about this, SpaceX is a fascinating company. And what they're doing, you know, their ultimate goal is to make the make humans multiplanetary. So we can live on multiple planets, Mars, moon, and earth. That's the literal mission of this of this company.

Jason Atwood: And they're using their they've made the rockets usable so they can do much cheaper so they can, they're actually killing everybody off so because they're launching you know once a week because they can reuse rockets and have to build a hundred million dollar rocket they can land it for whatever so SpaceX super cool again watch it on YouTube they do a good job they actually have like like, announcers and they lead you through it in all the technical terms and like, okay, now we're doing separation and they'll show the separation and all the videos, it's very cool. If you're into space, team up that one with the space and technology masterclass and you're gonna get to learn a lot. So,

Justin Edelstein: There you go. I watched some of that yesterday with the landing and they had like a nice, they had like a really long, it's like a two hour special. prior to then coming on live where they were on for another like two or three hours yesterday. I was really watching it. It was a lot of fun, fascinating stuff. And like all the stuff that went into it and then that pre-show, the two hours, they went back to like when the company started and like a very young Elon Musk and these things he's saying out loud and you're like, no.

20:15 Jason Atwood: Oh, wait, that's happening. Oh, cool. All right. Did they show the they show the failure video? They have a video of all the times rockets exploded.

Justin Edelstein: They showed it. Yeah, they showed like here was the first attempt. Here is the second one. This one needed to work.

Jason Atwood: It was one that if they didn't do it, that was over. And they basically did it. And if you really are interested in him, his biography. is pretty good and it does talk about SpaceX, but they're doing things now. They're just incredible. Anyway, what's your next one?

Justin Edelstein: All right, this is gonna be the last good one for a little while. All right. The rest are gonna be garbage till we get to the top three. The plot against America on HBO. Okay. HBO Max. Well, you can find it on any of those HBO platforms, but I guess it's on HBO Max. Sure. This episode is brought to you by HBO Max. It's on HBO Max, HBO Go, HBO Now, and just plain old HBO on demand. All the places you can find HBO in all their variety of services. But plot against America. very special to me for a couple reasons. The first reason is my wife worked on it. So when you're watching the credits, you can see my wife's name as the assistant editor. And it's also by David Simon, who's my favorite for those who've listened to previous streaming.

Justin Edelstein: Podcast of ours, The Wire, always ends up somewhere towards the top, if not number one for me every time, and other of his shows have also ended up on this list. The plot against America is an adaptation of a Philip Roth novel from 2004. Basically it asks the question of what if Charles Lindbergh would have won the presidential election with his America First movement in 1940, which is ripped right from real history and then did a little twist. Like, all right, let's have this guy win and see what this world would look like through the lens of... this family in Newark, New Jersey. I'm going to leave it there. You can imagine it's pretty terrible. The things that would happen if a Nazi sympathizer would have been our president in 1940. We'll leave it there.

Justin Edelstein: Also, there is a podcast that accompanied this. So... Every episode right after that episode, they would record a podcast the next day, and they're with David Simon, all six of them. So they're really good accompaniments to the episodes. He brings a lot to it. They're like 20 to 25 minutes where they break things down, bring in some of the dialogue, and he'll walk through it and all that, which I always find interesting. So plot against America on all your HBO streaming platforms. Nice,

Jason Atwood: Nice. Well, we got speeded up a little bit here. So I'm going to give good thing we're still in the bottom. I'm gonna do double I'm gonna do two just because maybe we got to speed up a little. I'm gonna do first there two that are sort of been out for a while. They both are. One is the Witcher, which is on Netflix. It's a, you know, for those of us who are lamenting the fact that there's no more Game of Thrones is kind of like a way to get that medieval type of science fiction, I guess, not even science fiction, but like what is it? I don't even know what the fantasy is. Fantasy, there you go. So The Witcher is starring Henry Cavill who played Superman. It's based on a video game, which is always weird.

23:55 Jason Atwood: Probably video game comic and then it goes to be a show. It's really good. The first season, I think they've signed up for another season. It was on Netflix, it's a big rage, again, six months ago, five months ago. But if you missed it for some reason, you haven't watched, watch The Witcher, go watch it. It's really good. Definitely R rated, not for the kids, but really, really fun and great special effects and just a really fun fantasy type of show. And then the other one, Sci-fi so I'll put in there sci-fi Picard which is the Star Trek continuation so for those of you who on the Star Trek universe the next generation Captain Jean-Luc Picard was the captain of that and then all the movies that came afterwards and they rebooted him into a his own.

Jason Atwood: Show. Fun. If you're into Star Trek, it's on CBS All Access. So here we go. Another platform. It's a pay platform. They it's a great, great show. Again, if you're any, if you're anywhere near a Star Trek fan, you got to watch it. It's great. And there's more Star Trek, all the Star Trek is on CBS All Access. So if you're there, you go back and watch the originals, you can watch the every show. But Picard, really good. CBS All Access, those a few. Give me two of yours.

Justin Edelstein: I'm going to give you two and they're joined. They're garbage. They're both on Netflix and they're both garbage. The first one, the circle. Man, is this garbage. You're into reality. garbage. This is for you. They take people and they put them in like apartments in the same building, but they don't let them see each other. They can only communicate over social media. In the same location physically. And they can't even really like talk to each other. They just like say things out loud and then this like I don't know, this bot just sort of types it. It's really awful. And there's a lot of backstabbing and a lot of just craziness when you. Think of people just, you know, on a reality show about social influencing. Yeah, it's it's that and better. And then the second one is right along the same lines.

Justin Edelstein: Although I found this one way more interesting. Love is Blind,

Jason Atwood: Another Netflix, you know, the first one that I've actually seen. It's the first show that you've brought up that I've actually seen. And that was garbage, another garbage,

Justin Edelstein: But super fascinating because it's like at least the beginning was fascinating. And Messica a was just comic relief at every moment. So. The premise here is, hey, people, we're going to put you in these pods and you're going to date, but you're not going to see each other. You can talk to each other, but you can't see each other and you're going to fall in love. And you're going to get married like, like within like a very short. period of time, but you're not going to be able to see each other. You have to like get engaged. Then we'll let you see each other. And this all happens in like a week. And then they go off, like, hang out somewhere and they there's a lot of infighting and it's basically just a lot of drinking.

27:19 Justin Edelstein: It's it's it's a mess. But. Lots of funny moments in there. So go for it. Love is blind. Love is blind. Oh, put that at the Barbie list. God, that was bad. I've given you real things to watch. Love is blind. I've given people so many more entertaining things. And I have three more things on my list. And the last three are going to be far more entertaining then your last three. Let's put it that way.

Jason Atwood: Okay, well, I'll do one and then just quickly, I might have mentioned this before, again, another YouTube slash podcast is called the artificial intelligence podcast. And it's done by Lex Freeman, a professor at, I think he was at MIT, but he's left now. I think he left to go start his own thing, but he has this podcast where he interviews really, like really interesting people, but in always talking about technology and artificial intelligence and machine learning. And, you know, oh, I mean, again, neural nets. I mean, it is, it is, it's deep, right? Self-driving cars, you know, he- But he he flying robots. It's really, really deep stuff. Of course, I found him because I was on one of my, you know, everything Elon so I found him for that. But he does some incredible, incredible interviews.

Jason Atwood: It's very straight up. It's very, you know, he starts and he just and then they just had this conversation. And again, really, really interesting. Always with again, always high, high technology and somewhere around artificial intelligence. So if you want to learn about artificial intelligence, the real thing, not only can you go to, not only can you watch this podcast, it's both a video, it's a video on YouTube, but he actually posts all his MIT lectures on artificial intelligence, which I've watched about five or six of them. And he will teach you about artificial intelligence. So you can kind of take kind of like a master class you can take his artificial intelligence course. Super, super cool.

Justin Edelstein: Let me do one more. We'll do it in pairs. I was just going to make everyone dumber. Alright, go ahead. Why are you doing that? I'm going to make people dumber. I'm proving the kind of the host. Let's get down people. You want one? All right. I'm gonna hit you with... In my final three, I'm gonna hit you with two of... Two of these things are probably the two most funny things out there right now.

Jason Atwood: Give me all three.

Justin Edelstein: Just go. Oh, you want all three? Yeah. Top three. All right. Well, what we do in the shadows is number three. Okay, holy crap, what a show. It is so funny. You can catch it on Hulu. It airs on FX. And it is a it's actually a spin off of a movie called What We Do in the Shadows. And it is it's that the office style like documentary style like sitcom, you know. These vampires. And they are... They are... There's... Energy. Energy. They have these things called normal people that can help. It's wild. Please, please, please, whatever you do, please check out what we do in the shadows on Hulu. You will not be disappointed. You will laugh very hard.

30:56 Jason Atwood: All right, no, we'll go back and forth. All right, let's go back. I I B. changing it up on this fly. Mine, next one, a double. something I So right before COVID hit, I was able to fly to LA for a quick concert, which was the Prince, being there because the the the the and then they a-I they obviously was to get it to be a TV show, it's on CBS All Access. So if you're a Prince fan and you haven't watched, it's Let's Go Crazy, the Grammy's tribute for Prince. on CBSO Access, I think it Anyway, great concert if you're a

Justin Edelstein: And for more watched things during the quote, lockdown. The Last Dance,. which is the documentary that was shot about the 1998 or 97-98 Chicago Bulls season. So the last season of Michael Jordan, Phil Jackson, Dennis Rodman, Scotty Pippin, basically their last big. That's what you can do. You can do it. really cool and thrilling like back scenes of Michael Jordan and seeing what he was all about. Wow was that intense. Really great. really, really interesting. Now that sports are sorted back, maybe on the back burner, but sports were not back and this was scratching the itch and it was really good. I highly recommend you could catch it on ESPN plus or Netflix.

Jason Atwood: Nice, nice. That's on my list of things I wanna watch. Mine is now I'm gonna go trash. just total trash. My number one is gonna be weird. But my last trash one is a show that's on DH one, but you can also get it I think you buy it on iTunes. It's Ru Paul's Drag Race. I've is a trashy reality show where people dress up in drag in a competition to become, I guess, the queen of drag. And RuPaul, who's one of the best known drag queens out there, is the host and part of the panel. It is very funny. Every age, and maybe it's a little on the, you know, it's got some... innuendos and stuff. I actually buy it on iTunes so I can get, so it's explicit, because I like to, because they bleep out a lot of stuff.

34:44 Jason Atwood: Just a lot of the drag terms. Very funny. I think the season's just ending this season. That season ended, so you can get the whole season now. Then they have like a celebrity version, then they have an all-star version. So there's plenty of drag race out there if you want it. My child is obsessed with it, my 15 year old.

Justin Edelstein: And then all We're down to the final one. What is your final countdown, Well, it's in a service that we haven't mentioned yet. Okay. Apple TV plus. Okay, there you go. Oh, I know what this is. Yeah. Half hour comedy. It, the original, there were eight episodes and they added a ninth. during the quarantine. It's called Mythic. It is extremely funny. Anyone who has listened to me before knows that I'm a huge fan of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, a huge fan of Charlie Day, a huge fan of Mac, and it's their show. They created the show. They're the head writers, creators, producers, etc. And this is kind of an office comedy, for lack of a better word, around the back office of creation of a video game. Like a very popular video game. One that, what are they called?

Justin Edelstein: Like first? role play, whatever. I'm not a gamer. I don't know.

Jason Atwood: It's like World of Worldcraft is like, yeah,

Justin Edelstein: Sure, whatever you do. Yeah, you go around, you kill people, you do things, whatever. Anyway, the show is fantastic. And they they did something extremely smart, which was they came back with a ninth episode, the quarantine edition. And if you were to watch this, you will get to the end of the eighth episode. thinking, okay, that was the end of the season, and you'll realize why they needed to do a ninth episode. And they did it in quarantine. And because it's an Apple show, they did it all appled up. And it's really impressive. Because I think it was all shot on like iPhones, and they all are wearing AirPods Pros pretty much the whole time. And it's just really, really, really a very well done version of those quarantine episodes of which, you know, 30 Rock came back with one.

Justin Edelstein: I think Parks and Rec came back with one or a bunch of like comebacks, if you will. But Mythic Quest, watch the whole season. It is awesome. There is going to be a second season. I know that already. Really, really high up there in terms of comedy factor, for sure. really fun.

Jason Atwood: Then the only two out of two out of your 10 I've actually watched and that one I've watched very funny. I would say it takes a couple episodes because it's a little work to get the characters they actually like the characters. I think it takes three or four episodes. So give it a couple episodes. Don't just watch one. It takes a couple I think to where you're like, Oh, I enjoy these people and they're fun. And then you really get to know them and it gets better.

38:06 Justin Edelstein: My number needed to do that final episode.

Jason Atwood: After the way that they finished it. Yeah, I mean, it was good. The final episodes really good. It's really-well done with the, you know, again, all doing shots. It's all basically zoom calls and or FaceTime calls, and how they do it together. It's very, very well done. My number one is actually the name of a thread or a messages thread. between you and another party. Yes, my number one is the thing I've watched the most in the last last, I don't know, three months. It's we call it the Cuomo show, which was I think his hundred days of briefings. He did a, this is Andrew Cuomo, the governor of New York, which I've heard outside of New York is like there's lots of people all over the country watching and it's my number one show.

Jason Atwood: I've watched for Well, at least for that 90-day period I was to watch every day. The show was on at some random time in the morning. It was like sometimes at 10, sometimes at 10, 11, 1130. So I'd watch for his Twitter and I every day watch that show. It's one show watching. Again, it's a coronavirus update. So it's clearly not something you'd ever go back and rewatch. I actually watched it on Twitter. So there's a whole nother platform. You could see it online, but I watched it on Twitter. You know, click a little Twitter live stream and fun. When you watch the recap, so if you didn't watch it live, then you get lots of, I guess, whatever that's, whatever the streaming thing is that you can have comments going. So you can watch the comments flying up and then the pluses and hearts.

Jason Atwood: So one side hearts are flying up and the other side comments are flying up. And of course the comments are. all over the place. But that was honestly I mean, I at least 90 episodes of that show every single day would not miss it. The Cuomo show, and for those of you, he's still doing the once a week. I just thought it.

Justin Edelstein: I'm gonna make a podcast pick. Oh, okay, throw one in there. Should I do it? Okay, I'll do it. I might've made this before, but it's called Hit Parade, and I really enjoy it. It's from Slate Magazine. You have to pay for it, by the way. Oh, they moved it over? You- It's weird. You kind of have to pay them directly for access to the podcast feed. So not a podcast. Not a podcast, I guess. Yeah, not weird. You have to pay them a subscription, not Spotify or any of that. You pay Slate,

Jason Atwood: Slate magazine. So it's paid premium content. Why do they just make money on advertising? Why do they have to do this pay thing?

Justin Edelstein: I think. Well, actually, they announced it. They said why they had to do it. They said, we're not making enough money during this coronavirus situation through advertising.

41:06 Jason Atwood: So, if you'd like to keep listening to this, support us and pay for it. Otherwise, we'll just stop doing it. I'm surprised I didn't go to Patreon and do the Patreon thing. But anyway,

Justin Edelstein: They started some premium thing, and this was part of the premium thing, and we love it. My wife and I share, and it's our red trip podcast, cuz it's like an hour and a half each time. So it's a good hour and a half that it marches you through, like somebody's, an artist, a musical artist, it's kind of their history of the charts and marches you through like well here's where they hit like their number one in like 1998 or whatever. Let's go back to 1982 where it all started. Sort of walking through like trends and whatever. I find it very, very, very well done, really well researched. and Chris Malanfy is the host, and I think he's a really good host of a podcast as well.

Jason Atwood: Yeah, I've listened to, I think two episodes. I have too many podcasts, but it was good. It was a good like, yeah, they go back and sort of do the history, really build up. It's a good podcast. All right, well with that. We'll say good do. We'll say goodbye. We'll be back maybe. I don't know. I'm not even gonna promise anything at this point. We've tried to do a GTT summer series. We promised it so summer's not over. We can get no we can do that. I think I think we can pull that off. I think we pulled it off. So we're going to give that a shot maybe. Until then follow. at justedlstein, at Jason Atwood, at Arca Sync. And we'll be back with more episodes, maybe, this, but here's one for you at least.

Jason Atwood: And until then, it's Justin and Jason saying, enjoy those cloudy days.
