Your anime ever diminishing arctic Wildlife Beef trow. 00:41.010 --> 00:44.070 Oh, things are getting dire. 00:44.220 --> 00:47.702 Yeah. The amazon's on fire. It's great. 00:47.836 --> 00:52.446 Anyway, here's some cute animals. What a what a great, positive way. 00:52.468 --> 00:54.090 To start this episode. 00:54.170 --> 00:55.450 I'm in a great mood. 00:55.530 --> 01:00.846 Reminder that the world is burning. We're all happy. everything's cool. 01:00.948 --> 01:01.358 Yeah. 01:01.444 --> 01:03.246 Fascism isn't real. 01:03.348 --> 01:03.722 Yeah. 01:03.796 --> 01:06.914 It's just a scary bedtime story. 01:07.032 --> 01:07.700 Yeah. 01:11.830 --> 01:12.580 Okay. 01:13.830 --> 01:19.560 Cute animals. I'm glad I picked this show because I needed this after this week. 01:20.330 --> 01:23.474 Yeah. So what what do we have going on? Brendan? 01:23.602 --> 01:32.730 We're watching Polar Bear Cafe. I don't know anything else. I'm assuming it's animals running a cafe and I'm on board. It's all I got. 01:32.880 --> 01:39.820 Yeah, just from the research, it looks adorable. And, God, I hope it sounds perfect. 01:40.530 --> 01:43.918 Sounds like the perfect content ever. 01:44.084 --> 01:45.178 The palate. 01:45.354 --> 01:48.110 It's all about their existential direction. 01:48.690 --> 01:52.694 Episode seven takes a hard turn. Polar bears an alcoholic. 01:52.842 --> 01:53.540 No. 01:57.190 --> 02:01.586 So, yeah. Brendan, you said you know nothing about it. dana, do you know anything about this? 02:01.608 --> 02:06.770 No, but I'm excited about it. I love bears. 02:09.430 --> 02:10.950 We know. We met Paul. 02:13.690 --> 02:22.220 Well, yes, but also, actually, both of us really like bears. Like Palmton and winnie the poo. We love them. 02:23.790 --> 02:26.422 Understandable? They're like bigger dogs. 02:26.566 --> 02:28.550 Yeah, it's their friendly. 02:28.710 --> 02:40.874 That's my dream. I just want to hang out with a bear just to get a big old bear hug. Literally. This is my dream. 02:41.002 --> 02:49.090 You see those videos of people in Russia who found, like, a bear cove and raised it so it's friendly around them. It's like, I know it could kill me, but that might be worth the rest. 02:49.160 --> 02:53.860 That's like the documentary about that guy. What's his name? What is it? grizzly man. 02:54.390 --> 02:54.846 Grizzly. 02:54.878 --> 02:55.460 Yeah. 02:55.850 --> 02:56.870 By bears. 02:57.930 --> 03:03.110 Yeah, it went well for him for a long bad ending. 03:03.850 --> 03:10.890 He picked the wrong answer in the bear dating SIM and got mauled by bears. Bad ending. 03:12.670 --> 03:16.454 Hopefully we don't have a bad ending with this bear central. 03:16.502 --> 03:28.990 Hopefully we'll just cut to the chase because we don't know anything about it. So let's explore. waiter. waiter, can I have the first three episodes, please? 03:29.140 --> 03:29.966 Love that. 03:30.068 --> 03:32.426 I didn't bring the cash. Can we split a card? 03:32.548 --> 03:34.094 We should have told them earlier. 03:34.222 --> 03:37.140 I only had episode three. 03:37.990 --> 03:39.122 Oh, God. 03:39.176 --> 03:44.930 I didn't I only got an appetizer. I don't want to I don't want to split the bill evenly. 03:45.530 --> 03:51.000 Are you implying I ordered the most? Wow. You're probably right. 04:13.010 --> 04:15.050 It's so cute. 04:15.210 --> 04:20.730 This is perfect. Perfect media, perfect anime. 04:20.890 --> 04:29.060 It's good that it's a cafe, because it's a good, like, palate cleanser. It's like a nice green tea parfait, and it's just like this is nice. 04:29.430 --> 04:30.302 It's pleasant. 04:30.366 --> 04:32.034 It's not overbearing at all. 04:32.152 --> 04:34.450 Over bearing overbearing. 04:38.250 --> 04:49.826 It's not over penguining at all. I'm mostly glad I picked this show because it's just so out of my wheelhouse. 04:50.018 --> 04:53.740 It's nice to see dana vibes written all over. 04:57.310 --> 05:41.754 So let's get into it. Episode one. Once again, we get the rare opening. I say once again, and also rare contradicting myself. Immediately we get the opening right away of the theme song. And it's just the penguin, polar bear and panda driving around a little car, and they go into, like, a big penguin sled. And then they're in a big polar bear plane and just flying around and having fun at good old time while it's like a K Pop boy band music playing. And they're singing about, like, pancakes and, like, mango smoothies. I don't know. There wasn't some type of song but a mango shake. You could pick out a random English word every day. 05:41.792 --> 05:42.970 Shakes his butt. 05:44.910 --> 05:49.482 Do you like polar bear torquing? This is the anime. This is your show. 05:49.536 --> 05:50.640 Not like that. 05:52.850 --> 06:27.314 He's a little shimmy. And we open up on panda's house. Pandas there chilling, eating bamboo as pandas do their thing. And panda's mom walks in. It's cleaning around the house. She's wearing a nice little dress, and she's got a vacuum and just sucking up all the dust. And panda just there like, oh, man. One of us great about relaxing and eating food. The food and the relaxing part, the whole thing. I love it. It's my entire aesthetic. I love just eating and doing nothing. It's like pandas the most useless animal. 06:27.442 --> 06:32.866 But they're adorable, perfect, round, symmetrical. 06:32.978 --> 07:01.390 The round. Oh. I also noticed with the show as by the title, it's clear the penguin, polar bear and panda are main characters. But the panda and penguin don't have eyes. I thought that was an interesting choice. And they're still very expressive. Panda is easier because it's got the black fur around where the eyes would be. But I noticed, like, penguin, when zoomed in a few times, no eyes. It's kind of like that's shit. Interesting choice. 07:01.470 --> 07:02.610 Even notice. 07:03.350 --> 07:05.300 What does that say about me? 07:06.310 --> 07:12.680 You're just enjoying it. It's true. They're still very expressive. Like, you don't even really think about it. 07:13.850 --> 07:25.462 Yeah, I guess because they're animals, so it's not like we're connected with a human face, so we don't have to look into the eyes. You can just stare. I don't know where else you would stare at the beak. Is that offensive? 07:25.526 --> 07:26.890 Beak. Anyway, panda. 07:27.710 --> 07:29.338 It's a beak of the panda. Of course. 07:29.424 --> 07:32.090 It's the peak of the panda. 07:32.590 --> 08:16.314 Jesus. And the mom starts kicking the panda around, saying, like, you're lazy. You got to go out, and you got no future plans. You got no goals. You got nothing going out there and, like, do something. So we see panda out walking around, going to the convenience store and buying some snacks. And I guess in the convenience store, they have job posting, like magazines, it seems like. And it's just like the help wanted pages, kind of. So the panda picks up a few of those and takes some cashier. It's like, hey, which one of these has a job where I don't have to do anything? You're just kind of like, none. None of them. It's what a job is. 08:16.352 --> 08:19.580 You got to work at a job. 08:20.750 --> 08:46.390 Hate to bring it to you. That's what work is. It's in the name work. So Panda buys a bunch of snacks, goes home, takes the help wanted magazines with them, and starts looking for jobs and calling around. It's like, oh, can I be a graphic designer? Sure. Do you have any previous skills? He's like, no. It's like, can you use a computer net mouse? No, not at all. We're going to keep looking. 08:46.460 --> 08:47.990 Sorry, champ. 08:49.130 --> 08:54.066 And I like, the next one panda calls somebody, and it's like, I want to be the interior designer. 08:54.178 --> 08:54.646 Cool. 08:54.748 --> 09:05.820 And Panda goes, what's an interior designer? And they hang up immediately. So panda's got no skills and no knowledge about nothing. 09:06.350 --> 09:07.110 Quite naive. 09:07.190 --> 09:16.042 Comes in again, quite naive. Sees Panda loaf around again. What are you doing? I thought you're going to get a job. He's like, I tried. sucked. 09:16.106 --> 09:19.630 I made two phone calls. I am wiped. 09:20.370 --> 09:22.160 I can't do it. 09:23.270 --> 09:44.310 I can't be bothered. It's too much for my frail frame of a massive panda. And so the mom starts to kind of like, not hitting with the vacuum, but kind of sucking them all with the vacuum. Like, are you lazy, good for nothing sort of like mentality. And he's just like, I'm getting the big suck. 09:45.850 --> 09:46.600 No. 09:50.090 --> 09:54.570 I almost took a note that said his mom gives him the suck. 09:55.710 --> 09:59.100 Yeah, I don't like because there's a line. 09:59.630 --> 10:06.154 No, there's a line later where it's like, I'm scared to go home because she's going to suck me again. I was just like, that lock. 10:06.282 --> 10:07.230 Panda. 10:08.530 --> 10:11.120 Panda police had a field day. 10:12.790 --> 10:13.854 They were going nuts. 10:13.902 --> 10:20.420 Mama, no. Stop giving me this. I'm so sorry. 10:21.510 --> 10:24.530 Going to leave a little edit point there so we can cut that line. 10:24.680 --> 10:26.900 Bro, what are you? 10:29.110 --> 11:08.980 So the fan goes back out job hunting again, or just in general? Just going back out my pants. I see a butterfly with the string tied. So yeah, let me help you. There a little butterfly. It takes off. And then we get a little montage of the panda just chasing butterfly around town. You run through, like, a little tunnel and stuff and going all over the place and stumbles into the Polar Bear cafe. It's fake middle of the woods. It's it's the fantasy realm where you just get transported to a magical land dead. It's this beautiful cafe. The panda actually chased the butterfly into the stream, got hit by a bus. 11:09.590 --> 11:16.500 Oh, my. End of the series is just it pans out, and pandas just in the middle of the road. 11:18.310 --> 11:19.058 The whole time. 11:19.144 --> 11:25.080 Oops English Pandas, played by Bruce willis. Wow, that's a big get. 11:25.610 --> 11:26.162 Weird. 11:26.226 --> 11:49.418 Interesting choice. And so as the panda arrives at the cafe, the butterfly lands down. The Polar Bear walks by with the tray of drinks the butterfly lands on. The polar bear, helps untie the butterfly, and it takes back off pan's like, oh, what is this wonderful place? Oh, this is the Polar Bear cafe. I'm Polar Bear. The titular Polar Bear. 11:49.514 --> 11:50.990 Care for a cafe? 11:53.650 --> 12:42.762 So Panda ends up grabbing a table and sits down. He's looking over at the menu. He's like, yeah, what can I get? He's like bamboo. We don't have that. It's like, what about bamboo grass? It's like still no bamboo. He's like, It'd be pretty cool if you had bamboo. Yeah, we don't know. I'll just get a nice coffee then bamboo is all to eat. He's a panda. Get it? And then after Panda gets ice coffee, we cut to Mr. Penguin. He's asking Polar Bear about like, hey, do you ever get too many of those point cards from different places? Just like, real cash. Hey, I'm Mr. Penguin. Here's my stick. It's just like, hey, man, do you get, like, a bunch of shit in your wallet that just builds up and you're just like, what do I do with this? 12:42.916 --> 12:44.610 Deeply relatable. 12:45.670 --> 13:25.150 Yeah, it's just so mundane. But that's the intro to these characters. It's like, this is kind of great. And then Mr. Penguin is just like, oh, let me get another. Give me another drink. Only get seconds. And Paul Richard just kind of driving seconds. He say, did you mean this? Or what about this? Or how about this? And they're all just Japanese puns on the word seconds. Love that every time the word play, it's so good. And the penguins just like, no, I want seconds. No, I just want another. No, just another train. He's like, Your ponds are killing me. I think he says, like, if it wasn't for these ponds and it trails off. 13:25.300 --> 13:29.520 Penguins usual is the cafe mocha. I love it. 13:30.690 --> 13:33.920 It's got an exquisite palette for your fine. 13:34.310 --> 13:37.006 He likes that latte yum. 13:37.198 --> 13:38.834 I don't know what a cafe mocha is. 13:38.872 --> 13:43.570 I don't drink coffee a lotte with mocha. Yeah. 13:43.720 --> 13:45.042 Oh, good to know. 13:45.096 --> 13:46.900 Two baristas and. 13:49.690 --> 13:53.254 I'm 28 and had coffee for the first time a month. What? 13:53.452 --> 14:01.210 I'm sorry. I've known you this long and you have not even tried coffee? 14:01.950 --> 14:07.740 No, I've had coffee before, but now is the only time I've consistently had it at work. 14:09.150 --> 14:15.630 More than bodily leaves. We'll have a tasting train. 14:15.700 --> 14:20.480 You to be an overcaffeinated millennial like the rest of us. 14:21.330 --> 14:24.414 Yes. I can't wait for my heart to implode. 14:24.542 --> 14:28.514 God, I wait for it every day. Every day. 14:28.552 --> 14:30.034 That's the goal of coffee, right? 14:30.152 --> 14:33.330 I hope that's closer to that sweet relief. 14:34.390 --> 14:37.042 It's just Russian roulette in a cup. 14:37.186 --> 14:39.880 Maybe I'll vibrate my way to hell today. 14:45.290 --> 15:15.706 And we see penguins asking about Polar Bear, about the part time job. Just kind of like, hey, you've had a few openings for, like, part timers, right? Yeah, polar Bear was like, yeah, I got, like, four interviews lined up. And Panda overhears this and comes running up to the counter and panel's like, oh, part time polar bear's. Like, you went in? Yeah, sure, why not? And just chucks him in with the interview lineup. We cut to the interviews and Penguin sitting in for some reason, which I thought was weird because he doesn't work at the cafe. 15:15.898 --> 15:17.310 He's an investor. 15:19.250 --> 15:39.810 Honestly, I would be surprised. That would make sense why he's there all the time but not working. Yeah, he just fronts the money. And the first one we see is badger. He's like, all right, how do you think he can manage in the halls? He's like holes. I love holes. I dig all the time. They're like, cool. We said halls, not holes. Going to pass. 15:39.980 --> 15:42.060 This show is just so good. 15:43.070 --> 15:55.274 It's just so pure. And then next interview, we see just a giant tortoise. And they're like, how do you think you'll do? I'm going to do pretty good. 15:55.472 --> 15:56.220 No. 15:57.970 --> 17:08.946 We see. Mandrel is next like a baboon. And they're like, so what's your main skill? He's like, mostly eating, and he's just cramming, like, meatballs in his mouth while he's like, Anti interview. And they're like, It's not the job. Yeah, they're going to move on. Next person an eater like, all right, what's your main skill? And just, like, hops up on two legs like, yo, I'm intimidating his form. It just stands up and basically just t pose and then just like is that it? It's not really intimidating. I'm a polar bear. Is that all you got? Yeah. Okay, we're going to move on to someone else, and then we finally get to Panda. And then looking over like, all right, you seem pretty good compared to all the other candidates. It's like, what time were you like, how much were you planning on working? He's like, Two days would be good. No, we need four. It's like, how long? It's like, eight hour shift. He's like, oh, I can't do that. That's a lot I can't do. It's like, well, maybe you can come and get me in the morning when I'm late. You plan on being late a lot, don't you? He's like, yeah, I plan on being late a lot. But do you have any intention of actually working here? He's like, no, not at all. I really don't want to. It's like, okay, thank you for wasting. 17:08.978 --> 17:14.950 Your time, Mad, because no film job is so dreamy. 17:15.850 --> 17:19.686 Oh, God, it'd be the best. And the pants just like, not, how do I do it? 17:19.788 --> 17:20.774 Perfect job. 17:20.892 --> 18:22.474 And then we just kept a polar bear. Has them all lined up, and it's like, you all suck. None of you got the job. And they're just like the tortoise is, like, spinning on a shell, and everyone kind of, like, freaked out a little bit. And the antiater is like, Tea posing again. And we see all of them. We get an exterior shot of them leaving the cafe. And I love it because the mantra is just pulling the tortoise on a sled because he's too slow to walk by himself. They're friends even if they didn't get the job. It's so normal. And Panda sticks around a bit and stays at the cafe and like, why are you still here? My mom's going to give me the suck. I don't want to go home. At that time, a girl walks in, and she's carrying a sloth on a branch. And the sloth waves down the polar bear. And he's like, hey, I saw your cafe, and I was wondering if I could have lived for just like, no, you're not getting the job. Just like, oh, man, we're not giving. 18:22.512 --> 18:25.290 The job to a tortoise. We're not giving it to a sloth. 18:26.130 --> 18:52.326 Yeah. And the girl is just like, oh, I'm sorry. He's not looking for the job. He saw your backyard and thought it was really pretty. So he just wants to live back there. He doesn't want the job. And he's like, oh, okay. That's cool. And he's like, hey, girl, you spoke and are competent. Do you want the job? She's got it. She wasn't even looking for a part time job, and now she's got it. She's abandoning her full time job and her family that we know nothing about for this bare part time job. 18:52.348 --> 18:53.266 I'm a biochemist. 18:53.298 --> 18:54.600 Honestly saying. 18:56.970 --> 19:02.860 I was like, a week away from carrying cancer. But if you want to give me a job, that's fine. 19:03.790 --> 19:04.490 Sure thing. 19:04.560 --> 19:41.510 I feel like juggling around some cafe. olays so she gets the job, and then Panda goes home and tells his mom about the cafe. And it's like, oh, yeah, I found this really cool place. Yeah, the place down the street. Like, literally right down the street. And it's been there for years. Panda just like, Beans, I got to go outside more. It's been there the whole time. And then we cut to the next day and we see Panda, like, on the phone calling up the cafe. And she's like, hey, man, you got to deliver. It's like, no, it's like, be real cool if you delivered. Cool. 19:41.660 --> 19:46.470 I'm like, right next door. Can you just give me a solid. 19:47.370 --> 19:49.222 Person who we don't deliver? 19:49.286 --> 19:51.180 Trust me enough to give me a job. 19:52.670 --> 20:00.170 I love these characters, but this part was so painful because I experienced something almost exactly like this very recently. 20:01.410 --> 20:04.362 That sucks. Yeah, it's terrible. 20:04.426 --> 20:14.000 This woman, I can't come pick it up because I'm with a baby. And I was like, okay, well, then you can't have any coffee. I'm so sorry. 20:16.530 --> 20:21.246 This damn baby band we have can't. 20:21.278 --> 20:23.278 Bring the baby to the bodie. 20:23.454 --> 20:30.550 I would be all on board for banning children from certain restaurants. I would pay premium dollar to have that experience. 20:30.700 --> 20:32.280 Damn hot take. 20:34.250 --> 20:38.342 There are some restaurants who have done it. There are very few, but there are some that have done it. 20:38.396 --> 20:43.580 Yeah, because they're in whatever. Yeah, getting over brenda's hatred for children. 20:45.950 --> 20:56.382 It's like my autobiography right there. So panda's mom walks in while he's on the phone and kind of hits him with the vacuum again, like, you lazy piece of shit. Gone. Just walk down. 20:56.436 --> 20:58.270 It's literally next door. 20:58.850 --> 21:35.450 Yeah. So Panda goes to the cafe and sees Mr. Penguin. Penguins like, hey, can I get the usual? And Panda walks in. He's like, hey, give me the usual. And socco how do you pronounce it? Is the girl who got hired. And she's like, oh, what's your usual? All right. And Paul herbert's like, I got it. And gives them just, like, rice and curry. It's like this, isn't it? Standing, you dumb bitch. It's not your usual. It's not how this works. And then gets sad to learn that, like, still doesn't have bamboo. Really shooting for that bamboo shoot. 21:38.110 --> 21:39.690 Bamboo shoots. 21:40.610 --> 21:44.270 It's animals and puns. Like, this is my show. This is my elephant. 21:44.690 --> 21:46.270 Finally, your brand. 21:48.930 --> 23:40.622 My brand. That doesn't piss everyone off. Finally. Hey, still looking for part we found it finally floorboards like, hey, still looking for part time jobs? Here's a few tune a fishermen on a boat. You in. Penn is like, no, that's a lot of work. And I can't swim. And penguin's like, hey, what about the zoo? You can work at the zoo. It's like, part time, no experience. Seems a little cushy. He's like, yeah, I could do that. Paul bear is like, yeah, but what about that tuna boat? It's like, no, no tuna boat. And he just keeps pushing it through like the rest of the episode. So once Penn is at the zoo, he's getting interviewed. And it's just like, so you got no experience and you want to work the zoo? It's like, yeah. It's like, congrats. You're hired. What position do you want? It's just that easy. He's like, well, we got an open panda position, and we got an open Asian black bear and an open gorilla position. Panda thinks about himself in a gorilla costume and a pulled black bear costume. He's like, oh, no, that wouldn't work. I'll just take the panda because I am one. That's like, great. And he starts working at the zoo, and he's just like, act natural. Just be a panda. He's just a panda in the exhibit. It doesn't have a job. And we see. He ends up going back to the cafe, and they're kind of like, oh, you finally got a job. It's like, yeah, but I won't tell. Being all like, sheepish coy. And then when he starts his first day at the zoo, he got a bunch of preschoolers come by. And the full time panda that's working there, he's like, all right, let's give him the razzle dazzle. And they start eating bamboo. And they roll around a bit and go up and down the slide. And they're entertaining the preschoolers. And then afterwards, they're just exhausted. Oh, God, I'm so tired. Oh, God, I'm so exhausted. And panda just falls asleep. And he wakes up when the zoo's closing. He's like, oh, okay. And then just goes to the cafe. 23:40.766 --> 23:47.846 I can sleep on the job. All I have to do is be a cute panda on display, just do. 23:47.868 --> 23:52.550 What I normally do and then sleep. And I get paid for a dream. 23:53.050 --> 23:56.870 I would be in a human zoo if it just meant I could just chill. 23:59.210 --> 24:00.874 Just like, hey, I don't know what. 24:00.912 --> 24:09.100 Kind of love to go to a human. If they give me the even medium bucks, I am down. 24:10.110 --> 24:19.706 Yeah, you can clock out at the end of the day, preferably have two way mirror glass so I can't see the perverts looking at me, because, like, anyone who's interested in me is like a real dirty bird. 24:19.818 --> 24:24.590 I will look them up. I mean, I if I get paid to do nothing, I don't. 24:29.590 --> 24:41.378 The vip ticket. The one window I have in my room is right next to the catwalk for, like, the second floor. So people just walk by all the time. So I basically am in a zoo. So I'm already there, except I'm pair. 24:41.394 --> 24:43.446 Of binoculars and just sit at your. 24:43.468 --> 24:47.990 Window and watch people and just take notes. 24:49.370 --> 25:28.450 My neighbor walking by six inches away from my face. I think of a huge binocular. But yeah. So Panda ends up finishing his first day, goes back to the cafe, and he looks on the menu, and there's bamboo. Now, bamboo bears ordering bamboo. He orders special bamboo just for him because he's the only panda, and he orders some of the bamboo. And polar bear starts going into his puns again. They don't translate at all because they're all Japanese. But then Sizako plays along too, and they're just like, ah, we knew we hired her for a good reason. And that's episode one. 25:28.600 --> 25:29.010 Yes. 25:29.080 --> 25:44.506 So when we get the ending, they get the ending, and it's like a little stop motion picture of orthello pieces, and they're doing like a kind of a collage kaleidoscope thing, but with all the pandas because they're black and white tiles. So I thought that was a very. 25:44.528 --> 25:45.674 Neat yeah, that was really cool. 25:45.712 --> 25:46.540 It was cool. 25:47.790 --> 26:04.770 And then the preview for the next episode is just like papercraft dolls, just like, sitting in place of penguin, polar bear and panda with, like, some voiceover to someone, like little light banter. And they're just doing some real neat stuff with the show, despite being, like, how simple it is or, like, let's play around a bit. 26:04.840 --> 26:15.670 I just really love the end bumpers, because every time polar bears like, next time. The last episode of Polar Bear Cafe. 26:18.890 --> 26:22.418 Have either of you seen paddington the Movies? 26:22.594 --> 26:28.860 I have not, but I've heard it is universally adored by everyone who's even heard of it. 26:29.470 --> 26:38.940 Yeah. So the first episode of specially gave me very strong paddington vibes. So I was very excited to get into the rest of this show. 26:39.390 --> 26:41.050 Love those good boy bears. 26:41.810 --> 27:09.000 Yeah. Episode two starts with the morning at panda's house. Things start early. They get up and they do tai chi because panda's grandpa is a martial arts master, so he teaches the Thai chi. And then they have breakfast. And then Panda is shown still in bed because the zoo is closed today, so he wants to sleep in. 27:09.450 --> 27:13.000 I can't sleep at work. I might as well sleep in my bed. 27:15.930 --> 27:57.560 I can't get paid for it. And then his mom is like, you missed tai chi and breakfast. And then she sucks him up with the vacuum again. And then it's cafe time, and Polar Bears doing a pour over. And Penguin is complaining about how stiff his shoulders are. And he's like, Southaco, massage my shoulders. And she's like, what? What shoulders? And he's like, they're right here. And she's like, I still don't know. And then he's like, Polar Bear, buddy, do it for me. 27:58.410 --> 27:59.720 You know my body. 28:02.010 --> 28:10.760 We're best friends. And then he just digs his claws into his shoulders, and he's like, oh, never mind. 28:11.610 --> 28:13.030 Just stabbing. 28:13.550 --> 28:18.730 And then Panda gets there and he asks for his usual, and he gets a plate of bamboo. 28:19.310 --> 28:20.846 He finally made it. 28:20.948 --> 28:39.940 They're friends now. And then they're talking about panda and Penguin are talking about how busy the cafe is. And Penguin is like, yeah, well, it's good food and good coffee, and there are a bunch of people here, cute girls and exotic animals. They've got it all. 28:40.630 --> 28:44.606 I'm curious of what an exotic animal is when animals are sentient. 28:44.798 --> 28:51.670 Yeah, that's interesting. I forget what animals they showed in that part. I think the mandrel was there and the tortoise. 28:52.250 --> 28:55.320 Yeah, I think it was a lot of people Panda works with. 28:56.170 --> 29:32.210 And then Panda is like, polar Bear is so cool for running his own cafe. And he is good for him. We love a small business. And then Penguin asks for amoka. And then Polar Bear makes more puns about Japanese words, and then he serves them. And then he's like, Sausaco, I'm going to go out for a little bit. And she's like, okay. So Polar bear is gone. And while he's gone, Panda is fantasizing about what his cafe would be like if he had one. And he's like, I know what I'll call it. Panda Cafe. 29:33.910 --> 29:37.560 In original, very true art. 29:38.170 --> 29:50.390 He said groundbreaking. He said he'd want it to be mellow and retro and it would have Panda decor. And Penguin is like, that's dumb. 29:50.550 --> 29:54.650 You are literally just stealing this and just putting your face everywhere. 29:58.750 --> 30:00.810 Somewhere with just your face everywhere. 30:00.970 --> 30:08.510 Dana Cafe. It's just pictures of me, like that picture of speckle from tuca and birdie. 30:10.530 --> 30:11.658 Smiling. 30:11.834 --> 30:14.370 I can't wait to start human Cafe. 30:16.870 --> 30:19.810 Like, you're serving human cafe. 30:21.590 --> 30:22.370 Cafe. 30:23.110 --> 30:24.420 I guess you're right. 30:25.910 --> 30:30.680 God, now I'm committed to it. I have to start a maid cafe now. 30:32.570 --> 30:35.640 I'm in good news. 30:36.490 --> 30:38.762 I already have the made costume. Don't ask questions. 30:38.816 --> 30:43.290 I already have 30 made costumes in various sizes. 30:44.430 --> 30:46.890 I'm miss kobiashi. I'm obsessed with maids. 30:49.070 --> 31:20.774 So he talks about the menu, and all they would serve is bamboo. And we don't see the whole spiel, but it is essentially bubba from Forest gumps spiel about shrimp, but bamboo. And Penguin is like, well, what about fish? And then Panda is like, they don't serve fish at cafes. And penguins like, they don't serve bamboo either. And then Penguin says he wouldn't get any customers. And then Mr. Llama is also there. 31:20.892 --> 31:23.910 Of course I'm a llama. 31:24.570 --> 32:00.290 Panda asks him if he would come, and he says, no, I would get tummy aches if I ate bamboo. And then penguins like, you should serve other things, too. And then they show Sausaco making this delicious looking pasta. It made me hungry. And then while Polar Bear was gone, panda redecorated the cafe to make it, like, his idea of what the cafe would be. And he was like, welcome to Panda Cafe. And Polar Bear was like, no, turn it back. 32:00.440 --> 32:01.540 Tear it down. 32:02.390 --> 32:03.170 Tear it down. 32:03.240 --> 32:08.882 I love that panda. Panda was also in a panda costume and not just himself. 32:09.026 --> 32:11.240 Well, you got a dress for the part. 32:12.250 --> 32:14.466 It's a uniform everyone's got to wear. 32:14.498 --> 32:26.630 It wouldn't be fair if he didn't. And then now it was time for penguin's Cafe fantasy. It will be called Penguin Cafe. whoa. 32:26.710 --> 32:27.340 Wow. 32:29.230 --> 32:42.542 He says the menu will center around raw fish and alcohol, to which Panda says, that sounds like a sushi bar. You need to have something that a cafe would have. It can't just be in the name. 32:42.676 --> 32:48.500 And then, sasako, what about to make it a cafe? Just open a sushi bar. 32:51.190 --> 32:58.038 And then Sausico is like, how about coffee? And Penguin is like, no, I don't know about that. 32:58.124 --> 33:01.858 Cafe seems weird unreasonable. 33:02.034 --> 33:18.810 So Panda is like, maybe you should just hang up the cafe idea. And then Penguin gets heated, and he's like, I'm going to do it. So then he does the same thing where he changes the Polar Bear Cafe. And Polar Bear again, is like, stop changing. 33:19.870 --> 33:33.934 I like, though, that it wasn't like Polar Bear didn't leave like he did before. You see him at making coffee or making food or something the whole time, and he just turns around and it's already like, the Penguin restaurant. He's just like, I turned my back for five minutes. 33:34.132 --> 33:35.920 Please be just so quick. 33:39.490 --> 33:59.420 And then Mr. lama says he wants to have a llama cafe. That's like a cat cafe, where you can groom them and hang out with them, and you can choose your favorite and take it out for a walk. And then Penguin is like, I can't imagine that would be fun. 34:01.470 --> 34:08.886 Be fun for the llamas. We get some beautiful shots of llamas with, like, long. Flowing hair and, like, makeup. 34:09.078 --> 34:12.702 Llamas, no, alpacas. Now we're talking. 34:12.836 --> 34:16.830 Hey, now we're getting alpaca. 34:19.330 --> 34:55.754 And then Panda is like, My idea is the best one. And then Penguin is like, My idea is the best one. And then they ask Polar Bear, and he's like, I like, llama's idea. And then they're like, hey, Sausico, what would your cafe be like? And she's like, Let me tell you. And then they just completely ignore her and start bickering again. And then we're into, like, part two. I like that each episode is like it's like an old episode of a cartoon where it's like, there's 211 minutes segments. I'm into it. 34:55.792 --> 34:56.566 Yeah, two acts. 34:56.598 --> 34:59.850 They're, like, loosely connected, but not, like fully. 35:01.310 --> 35:29.766 Yeah. So in the beginning of part two, penguin is sitting with Llama at a table. And he's like, I have to tell you something. You can't tell anybody. I have a penguin that I like. And then Llama is like, hey, polar bear, can I get a green tea parfait? And he's like, what were you saying, Penguin? And then penguin's like, there's a penguin that I like and then Llama's like, I'm sorry, Polar Bear, can I make that a strawberry parfait? And Penguin is like, what the hell? 35:29.868 --> 35:30.920 Come on, man. 35:31.690 --> 35:33.350 This is my one outlet. 35:34.410 --> 35:35.880 He's killing me here. 35:36.970 --> 36:02.590 And then Panda gets there, and he gets his bamboo, and they notice that the cherry blossoms are in bloom, and it's so beautiful and pink. And then they all go out into the trees, and they lay down a picnic blanket. And Panda says he wishes that they had snacks. And llama agrees. And then Penguins like, why can't we just sit and enjoy the trees? 36:04.210 --> 36:06.480 Why have funny snack with food? 36:08.050 --> 36:11.970 Dumb disgust. Just look at the trees. Eat the trees. 36:12.790 --> 36:14.580 Eat your in your eyes. 36:16.890 --> 36:57.440 And it was at this point in my notes that I started referring to Polar Bear as pb, which I thought a cool nickname, pb. But he brought lunch. He was like, oh, don't worry. He attacked everybody. Some food. And the sloth is there. And he's like, Go get a drink from the convenience store. And everyone's like, we have stuff here. And he's like, oh, I'm just going to go to the convenience store. And he just keeps going really slowly and keeps saying goodbye. And then there's, like, those little commercial break bumpers in between him walking away. 36:57.890 --> 37:02.366 He just dropped it every 5 seconds as he moves two inches. 37:02.478 --> 37:35.150 Yes, I love it. And he's gone eventually. And then they all have nice little cheers, and they eat lunch under the trees. And Penguin gets mad because he's like, we should stop eating and do something more appropriate for the occasion, like singing. And everyone's like, I can't sing. And he's like, what about dancing? And panda is like dancing. And then Polar Bear shows off some moves. He does some hula dancing and some belly dancing. 37:35.970 --> 37:42.350 Yeah. And a drunk office worker, like stomach dancing or draws a face on his stomach. 37:43.190 --> 38:08.458 Gross. And then Penguin is just drunk. He gets real, real tipsy. Is it any just really wants to do something. And he's like, Polar Bear, lift me into the tree. I'm going to fly. And everyone's like, no, sit down here, Penguin, please. 38:08.624 --> 38:09.930 You're day drunk. 38:10.750 --> 38:24.590 And then they show Polar Bear doing a bunch of cool stuff to entertain everybody. And then polar. No polar Bear. Penguin fell asleep. dingus. 38:25.170 --> 38:25.962 Lightweight. 38:26.026 --> 38:36.180 And then he wakes up and he wakes up and he rants about how young penguins just don't get it. And then he just wants to fight everybody. 38:37.350 --> 38:38.322 We've all been there. 38:38.376 --> 38:40.850 Unrelatable conduct, fully drunk. 38:46.710 --> 38:50.600 Boston, you want fucking go, bro? 38:52.090 --> 38:55.640 You want a whack? You want a whack? whack a wake you up? 39:00.250 --> 39:34.820 And then that's when he tells Panda, I have a crush on a penguin named penko from the bakery. She works part time at the bakery, which is very cute, and he thinks that Panda is her. And then he recites a poem about her, which I did not write down, but it goes something like, ms. penco talks, Ms. penco walks. And then there's another line that I can't remember, but that's also squaw. And everyone's like. 39:38.630 --> 39:42.358 I guess anything's poetry, if you call it that. 39:42.524 --> 40:36.646 Yes. Beautiful. It's written with love. And Polar Bear is like, you should take her on a walk. And then penguins like, I absolutely should. And he takes Panda by the hand, and they go for a little walk, and he's just like, he is going to ask her out. And then he's like, you're not penko. Where is she? And then he goes nuts and passes out again. And then they're all heading out, and they had a nice day. And Llama is taking penguin home. He's passed out on Llama's back. And then Sloth gets back, but no. 40:36.668 --> 40:38.854 One'S there because it's the middle of the night. 40:38.892 --> 40:56.560 He left. Yeah, it's night time. And then Polar Bear comes back out and he says, oh, the cherry blossoms are pretty at night, too. And then they sit and they have a drink together in the nighttime. Cherry blossom just so beautiful. 40:56.930 --> 41:00.400 I aspire to be Polar Bear when I grow up. 41:04.690 --> 41:20.520 In Bear in the big blue House. This is really similar to that, actually, now that I'm thinking of it. It's just like Polar Bear's residence, and then a whole bunch of wacky people just there. And he's like, Why are you guys here? 41:21.210 --> 41:26.360 Please, my home. I just want to do the dishes and go to bed. 41:26.810 --> 41:27.618 Please. 41:27.804 --> 41:30.700 I just need to sing to the moon real quick. 41:32.830 --> 41:43.918 Farewell to you, my friend. Is that what that was? Yeah, that's the right one. The moon, the fair and the big blue house. 41:44.004 --> 41:49.310 Okay, I was mixing up that Goodbye song, and that out of the box. Goodbye song. 41:50.290 --> 41:56.322 I think that's what we were singing first. I think it's that it doesn't matter. One of those anyway. 41:56.456 --> 41:57.140 Okay. 41:57.750 --> 41:59.860 Anyway, bears are good. Continue. 42:00.310 --> 42:34.046 Bears are good. Moral of the story, all bears are good. All bears in children's shows. And then pandas, it's the next day, and they're at the cafe, and Panda is like, wow, things got pretty nutty yesterday. And peanut butter. Peanut Butter. Mr. Peanut Butter is there now. And he's just like, what is this, a crossover? Oh, man, I'm losing my mind. I woke up at 530. whoa, we. 42:34.068 --> 42:37.070 Bear bears are here too. Triple cross. 42:39.010 --> 42:41.230 I mean, he's kind of like Polar Bear from that. 42:41.380 --> 43:16.266 Yeah, stoic. So Polar Bear says it's like, oh, no. He's like that every year. And they're just like, wow, Penguin really can't handle his alcohol. And then he comes in and he has a hangover. He's like, oh, I have such a headache. And then they see that he has bread, and they're like, oh, did you get that bread from the bakery that penco works at? And he's like, how do you know about that secret? And they all recite. The dino met him, and it's just a silly little moment teasing them because. 43:16.288 --> 43:18.250 He got drunk and spilled all secrets. 43:18.670 --> 43:28.606 God, this is as much conflict as I need in the show. Just a penguin being teased for his romantic poetry, for getting drunk and just. 43:28.628 --> 43:29.934 Letting his feelings out. 43:30.052 --> 44:37.286 That's all I need in life. So, yeah. Episode three, we have Panda walking in, and he's all bummed out, and Polar Bears like, hey, buddy, what's going on? And Panda is sad because no one ever visits him at work. He's always at the polar bear's work, but he doesn't but Polar Bear doesn't go to the zoo, and he's just sad that his friends don't get to see how cute and loved and popular he is at work. So they agree to go the next day and visit and actually hang out outside of the cafe for once. And as Panda gets to work, the manager, Honda is there saying, hey, the Full Time Panda is out, so you'll be flying solo today. And I just love that Full Time Panda had to go visit his daughter in school. 44:37.468 --> 44:41.800 Yes. I hope it was like Career Day or something. 44:43.130 --> 44:49.526 I also like that his name is Full Time Panda. Mr. Ford honda's name rhymes with Panda. 44:49.638 --> 44:50.300 Yeah. 44:55.710 --> 45:35.142 But yeah. So Panda is doing more work than usual. Since it's just him, he has to be extra entertaining. So he's quickly draining himself of his very little reserve of energy. So Polar Bear and Penguin arrive, and they plan to go directly to Panda and see him first thing. But an announcement comes over the speaker saying, it's Polar Bear feeding time. Don't you want to go see these polar bears dive into the water? And Polar Bear is like, oh, hell yeah. Let's go do that. 45:35.276 --> 45:36.200 Fuck it. 45:37.310 --> 45:45.482 To be fair, if I went somewhere and I heard a loud speaker, hey, it's Brendan feeding time. And I'd run to wherever it was. 45:45.536 --> 45:48.010 My friend get fed. 45:52.050 --> 46:09.300 They go to the polar bear exhibit, and there's a big sign on the entrance to the hall that polar bears are not allowed because they confuse the polar bears inside. You're free. What? 46:10.950 --> 46:12.114 I can leave? 46:12.312 --> 46:26.120 That's one thing I don't understand because some of these animals just live there and some are employees that get to cart at the end of the day and I don't know how I. 46:28.250 --> 46:40.460 Yeah, it's weird because it does feel a little like human zoo ish. Because in the real world, humans the real world, in the outside world, the humans are like, these are just people. 46:41.810 --> 46:42.762 Other citizens. 46:42.826 --> 46:46.206 The weird people are just weird people. And you'd pay no mind. 46:46.388 --> 46:59.266 Yeah, but I'm wondering if it was less like I could escape, I could be free one and more like, hey, what are you doing out there? You're supposed to be working. They see them and are like, hey, are you supposed to be in here with me? Or what are you? 46:59.368 --> 47:01.460 Your lunch break is over. Come back. 47:02.310 --> 47:03.060 Yeah. 47:05.270 --> 47:06.980 Confuses them, though. 47:07.590 --> 47:10.162 Yeah, just in general. Just like, what's happening right now? 47:10.216 --> 47:32.970 But yeah, polar bears like, let's sneak in. I got to go see these fluffy friends. Maybe I went to school with one of them. I don't know. So they try to sneak in, which isn't hard when you're a polar bear and you're 8ft tall. But they get inside, a polar bear swims up and it's like, what the fuck? 47:34.750 --> 47:36.060 You will know. 47:36.930 --> 47:40.640 You're outside. You're in the real world. I don't understand. 47:42.130 --> 47:43.434 Look at your little hat. 47:43.482 --> 47:45.478 I'm so confused and challenged. 47:45.674 --> 47:46.798 I loved his little hat. 47:46.814 --> 47:50.046 Yeah, he has a little hat. Great. It's a little flat. 47:50.078 --> 47:57.410 Brim soon ticket booth. I was like, tate was sitting next to me while I was watching it. I was like, he's wearing a hat. 47:58.950 --> 48:00.078 He's sentient he's close. 48:00.104 --> 48:36.020 It's weird because normally I don't have the reactions of real animals for anthropomorphised animals, but he's wearing a hat. It's so cute. Works for both this show and dogs in the Real world. But yeah, they immediately get busted. And penguins like, no, this is a teddy bear. I won. It's tough. It's fake. And polar bear just freezes. And the guy is not buying it and kicks them out. 48:37.110 --> 48:38.034 He's super not. 48:38.072 --> 49:02.570 I saw him walking back at the Panda exhibit. Panda is talking with Honda. He's getting nervous because his friend said they would be here by now. And he recruits Honda to make sure he gets a picture of the gang once they arrive. After that, they go to finally visit Panda. But he tuckered himself out. He fell asleep. 49:02.990 --> 49:03.818 He was working. 49:03.904 --> 49:04.650 Too much work. 49:04.720 --> 49:08.620 He was giving them the old razzle dazzle a little too hard. 49:09.390 --> 49:18.094 You had to give him the two time razzle dazzle because Mr. Full Time Panda wasn't there. I do the work for the both of them. 49:18.292 --> 49:49.350 Normally you do the razzle and I do the dazzle, but I got to do both today. So they keep shouting at him, trying to wake him up, but he is out cold. So they're like, this is lame. I guess we'll come back. So they go to the seal hall, and again there's another sign that says, hey, polar bears are not allowed because it freaks the fuck out of the seals because they think they're going to get eaten, which is very valid. 49:49.930 --> 49:55.530 But wouldn't there also be a sign for like no penguins in here because the seals are going to try and eat them? 49:55.600 --> 50:00.830 Yeah, why did they're just racist against polar bears? 50:01.250 --> 50:08.814 Yeah, this zoo just trying to take down the big white bear just because. 50:08.852 --> 50:10.640 This bear is white. 50:13.590 --> 50:18.770 I love that in Japanese, polar bear is just shirokuma because that just means white bear. 50:20.630 --> 50:56.574 Valid. They got the point. I mean, we basically call them ice black bear. So sure, yeah, that's true. But yeah, they sneak in again. They freak the fuck out of a seal. Polar bears like, I know I don't want to eat them, but oh, when I see a seal, I get excited. And Penguin is like, okay, let's get you out of here before your instincts take over. And again they get caught. Penguin tries to pass him off as a polar bear rug, which is a little bit morbid, but cool. But again, they get kicked out. 50:56.612 --> 51:01.370 No, this isn't my friend. I killed him and skinned him. And it's my rug. 51:01.530 --> 51:02.480 It's fun. 51:03.990 --> 52:07.990 So they go back to Panda, who is still asleep, and they hear some kids complaining like, oh, this Panda just sleeps all day. This is lame. They're like, oh, he said he was so popular in the cafe. What a liar. But they see Honda and he's like, hey, I think I was supposed to take pictures of you all together. And they decide, okay, let's just pose over his sleeping dead body. Just give him the proof that we were there. So yeah, they keep walking. They go check out the giraffes. They almost walk by Llama and he's like, hey, I know you guys. Hey, what's up? Good to see a friend because Panda is just fucking napping over there. Yeah, he does that a lot. But you should go see him again. He should be awake, but he isn't. 52:08.810 --> 52:09.558 He's not. 52:09.644 --> 53:14.934 So yeah, it's later on, either after work or the next day. But Panda goes back to the cafe, super bummed because his friends didn't visit him. He didn't see them all day. And penguins like, you fucking idiot. We have photo memories that you just nap through the entire thing. But yeah, so that's like our first half of the episode. But it's back at the zoo. panda's feeling weird because he's still not quite getting the hang of it. He's overthinking it because the Honda told him to just act naturally. And he just wants to put on a good show and be thought of as cute. So he's asking full time panda and Honda how he can be acting natural. And they're like, you just sit here and eat bamboo. Do the shit. You always complain. 53:14.982 --> 53:19.338 You can't do stuff you've been doing to this point. 53:19.424 --> 53:23.520 Stop dancing and trying to juggle and stuff, and you'll be fine. 53:25.890 --> 53:27.440 You don't even have the phone. 53:28.130 --> 53:50.600 And I like the rest of it because it was basically just some group therapy stuff at the cafe, all the zoo animals are gathered and they're all complaining like they aren't super duper happy at the zoo. Not because it's, like, hard work, but they're just sick of needing to do all the stereotypical things they do. 53:51.930 --> 53:53.154 Same old the otters. 53:53.202 --> 53:59.190 Like, My belly hurts because I have to break clams on rocks on my belly. 54:03.930 --> 54:05.330 No, I haven't. 54:05.410 --> 54:07.498 No. We get a fun little fear that. 54:07.504 --> 54:14.720 You are trying to break them, and you're like, oh, that sounds awful. I don't want to do that. I feel bad for you. 54:16.370 --> 54:24.430 Stop breaking clamps on your tummy. It's like but that's what the people want to deliver. I'm an October. 54:26.310 --> 54:54.300 So the koala is sick of eucalyptus, the anteater is sick of eating ants, and llama is like, hey, at least people like looking at you. I'm a llama. unconspicuous, ugly and unpopular. I literally had to call to get your attention when you were there because you just were not looking at me when you walked by. 54:57.790 --> 54:58.554 He's got a point. 54:58.592 --> 55:16.100 There no one's lining up to see the llama. tapir is like, hey, everyone's. Like, he has, like, the folklore legends of eating dreams, which holy shit, I did not know that was a thing. 55:16.950 --> 55:18.740 That's where drowsy comes from. 55:19.830 --> 55:20.818 That makes sense. 55:20.904 --> 55:26.260 I never put that together. And I didn't know drowsy's ate dreams either. 55:27.350 --> 55:33.350 Yeah, that's why Tapirman from digimon also eats dreams. He's the dream digimon. Anyway. 55:33.420 --> 55:42.826 God, shut up. How dare you? I'm looking at it to see if that's real. Hold on. 55:42.848 --> 55:47.062 Like, I'd tape your mod. Yeah, we get dana's reaction. 55:47.206 --> 55:57.680 This is why you can't bring it up every episode, because we got little cloudy Halt to be like, this stupid idea couldn't possibly be the thing. 56:00.930 --> 56:12.100 I don't hate him because he reminds me of a colossus from Shadow of the Colossus. Like, he looks like he'd be in that, but I also kind of hate that he exists. What is this? 56:13.510 --> 56:16.950 Why is he to Pierre Mon if he doesn't have a trunk? 56:21.370 --> 56:25.590 Eventually, this is so eventually. 56:27.390 --> 56:41.950 I like the helmet design. Everyone just stop. We're going to not advance the plot for a minute so you can at home just Google tipirmon just exactly how it sounds spelled out. 56:42.020 --> 56:43.210 I like his bracelet. 56:43.290 --> 56:45.066 It has, like, a fun, like, zelda. 56:45.098 --> 56:52.266 E helmet thing, but he can eventually dissolve into digitamond. 56:52.298 --> 57:00.100 Who's my holy I'm sorry, are his back legs just smoke? Did I just overlook that this entire time. 57:01.270 --> 57:03.710 He's a mystical, dream eating creature. 57:03.870 --> 57:05.570 This is just an egg. 57:05.730 --> 57:10.102 Yeah, it's just an egg with legs. I love it. 57:10.236 --> 57:14.038 You also love vivi. Is that its name? 57:14.124 --> 57:18.610 Yeah, I got aesthetic okay, fuck this. Fuck you. 57:18.700 --> 57:20.890 We're done with digimon. 57:23.470 --> 57:24.794 I don't think it would all that. 57:24.832 --> 57:28.170 Much the digimon interlude. 57:29.630 --> 57:32.190 And now for our digimon interlude. 57:32.610 --> 58:14.970 Back to our regularly scheduled programs. But yeah, that's basically we don't get much plot on this as they're all complaining, panda falls asleep. And the next day at work, after all this talk, he's so intently just thinking and contemplating how to act naturally. He's just casually relaxing in a tire. And the crowds eaten it up. And they're like, yeah, just you're overthinking it. Just nap. And you're good. And he's finally getting the hang of acting naturally by sleeping. 58:16.190 --> 58:17.386 Good for him. 58:17.568 --> 58:41.140 I do like at the very end after work that day, Panic goes to the cafe, and Penny was still trying to help him out to be act naturally. He's kind of like, relax, think of what you're doing in your most relaxed setting and then do that. And panic cuts him off. He's like, hey, check out this bag I got with my face on it. It's fucking koi as shit. And why do I help you? 58:41.830 --> 58:49.250 Why do I want to act naturally? And you're getting accessories with your face on them as real pandas. 58:50.650 --> 58:55.640 It's kind of like a pretty narcissistic episode for pandas. Doesn't show him in the best light. 58:56.010 --> 58:58.710 But he's a lovable idiot. 58:59.450 --> 59:00.200 Yeah. 59:00.590 --> 59:11.638 Also just like the voice actor just sounds a lot younger. So he does have that, like, baby, I don't know how to be adult quality to him, which I like, yeah. 59:11.824 --> 59:13.694 What do I do with my life? 59:13.892 --> 59:15.520 Is there a dub of this? 59:16.450 --> 59:17.920 Not that I could find. 59:19.330 --> 59:19.950 Me neither. 59:20.020 --> 59:23.774 I feel like this would be with. 59:23.812 --> 59:25.940 All those puns, there's no way. 59:26.630 --> 59:41.782 Yeah. This is a very Japanese show, so it would be hard to translate all of that stuff, like the localization of all that stuff. But then it's also just it's very mellow. It's very calm. I can't see this on tunami. I don't know where this would air. 59:41.836 --> 59:54.490 Yeah, it was very enjoyable. But yeah, I don't know if like well, I don't know. Anime fans will eat up anything, apparently. 59:54.910 --> 59:55.658 True. 59:55.824 --> 01:00:04.350 So I'm sure this would find an audience in America. But it is very mellow, very gentle. 01:00:05.890 --> 01:00:23.938 I feel like this would be a good buffer for something else. Like if they broke it into the Eleven Minute axe and this was just like an intermission or just like a commercial or something. And it was just a pleasant, like all right, now we're going to take a chill period and watch this bear make tea. 01:00:24.104 --> 01:00:49.420 Yeah. I really can't believe while I was watching it, I did not connect it to Bear in the Big Blue House. Because the more I think about it, the more it just is that because you compare baron the Big Blue House to other children's content and it's just like the chillest. It's like the same as, like, Mr. Rogers. It's just the chillest thing. 01:00:50.110 --> 01:00:56.490 Yeah, it's so chill. And it's got like an iceber. It's like Frigy mon. 01:00:56.560 --> 01:00:59.600 No, he's a so how do you feel about that? 01:01:01.410 --> 01:01:02.320 No more. 01:01:04.550 --> 01:01:21.254 I like them. It's very much my vibe. I'd put it on just to half pay attention because I kind of feel like you can even though it's not dubbed, you can kind of just get the gist of the conversation and just be like, oh, yeah, tune in and out. 01:01:21.292 --> 01:01:25.590 And you'll still get some pleasant vibes and fun jokes. 01:01:26.890 --> 01:01:32.346 Yeah. You'll never be lost in the plot. It's never going to be like, what's happening? It's like, I get it. 01:01:32.448 --> 01:01:35.850 Who's mentoring who now? And who's the rival? 01:01:37.390 --> 01:01:38.726 Wait. Which one's? Panda. 01:01:38.758 --> 01:02:07.490 I got confused, but yeah, this is definitely something I would use as, like, a destressor. I've been diving into more just like, very calm, fun children's media just as, like, after work destress. And this is definitely going on that list. So, yeah, this is definitely something I would watch more of if I'm having anxious or stressful. Bay. 01:02:09.130 --> 01:02:09.880 Yeah. 01:02:10.650 --> 01:02:11.830 Finally got a win. 01:02:11.900 --> 01:02:12.370 Yay. 01:02:12.450 --> 01:02:14.742 Good for you, Brendan. What a good pick? 01:02:14.796 --> 01:02:19.590 Oh, God. I think the last pick of mine that dugan liked was made in a pitch. 01:02:19.950 --> 01:02:20.700 Wow. 01:02:21.150 --> 01:02:22.170 It's been a while. 01:02:22.240 --> 01:02:24.070 He gets angry in this episode. 01:02:24.230 --> 01:02:24.890 Yeah. 01:02:25.040 --> 01:02:29.146 Weird. It's very easy. 01:02:29.328 --> 01:02:34.720 It's like you occasionally have good taste, but you're hard to like as a person. 01:02:36.770 --> 01:02:39.870 Wow. Okay. gee. 01:02:40.690 --> 01:02:42.720 The shade of it all. 01:02:44.690 --> 01:02:45.614 I love you. 01:02:45.652 --> 01:02:46.240 Friends. 01:02:47.570 --> 01:02:52.446 You say you don't joke people for what they like. I get so much shit for digimon. 01:02:52.558 --> 01:02:53.778 But we're friends. 01:02:53.944 --> 01:02:57.890 Hey, you get shit for digimondow on our throats. 01:02:58.790 --> 01:03:03.478 I just brought up tape your mind. I thought we were going to move past it. I didn't think we were going to stop on it. 01:03:03.644 --> 01:03:06.310 You really didn't expect it? 01:03:06.460 --> 01:03:07.766 I didn't. I thought we were going to move. 01:03:07.788 --> 01:03:15.340 Past well, anyways, so what do we have going on next week? 01:03:16.750 --> 01:03:32.910 Next week we're watching panty and stalking, which is anime I know very little about. I've seen the characters a whole lot and the music is really good. But other than that, I know next to nothing about it. 01:03:33.060 --> 01:03:34.190 I'm scared. 01:03:37.110 --> 01:03:38.066 You should be. 01:03:38.168 --> 01:03:39.026 Oh, no. 01:03:39.208 --> 01:03:45.970 Yeah, we are. They have quite the transformation sequence. 01:03:46.130 --> 01:03:53.960 Oh, boy. Well, I'll say that I'm cautiously optimistic for next week. 01:03:58.670 --> 01:04:05.740 I'm horrified. Thing ding watching the first three episodes. That's what I was going to say. 01:04:07.950 --> 01:04:18.400 Yeah.
