Montreal’s favorite geek and pop culture podcast 9ES is back to talk about the Chicken Jockey trend, the stupid AI Studio Ghibli trend, the Canadian election, Daredevil: Born Again and so much more. Of course it’s only natural that we start the episode off about how my brother now kind of sounds like Kieran Culkin after he recovered from Covid. Topical!
I really can’t express enough how happy the “Chicken Jockey” trend makes me. We talk a little bit in the episode how it seems like relatively harmless fun and pales in comparison to some of the horror stories we heard back in the day during showings of the first Jackass movie. Well, clearly the kids of today heard us trash talk their shenanigans and things have… escalated. Check this video out for clips of people sneaking in a live chicken and setting off actual fireworks in the movie theatre. Yet it still makes me happy. Why? Maybe I’m just happy these Mindcraft nerds are getting out of the house and doing something real for once in their lives, ok?
Meanwhile, the fast we move on from the AI Studio Ghibli trend the better. You know it’s a super cool fun trend when the White House is in on the trend showing a picture of a woman being deported. Fun and cool!
Finally, I’m catching up on Daredevil: Born Again over on Disney+ and I’m not really sure why it pissed people off. It’s good. You should watch it. It feels a lot like the Netflix Daredevil series which was easily one of the best Marvel things around. Maybe I’ll be finished it by the time next episode rolls around? Or maybe not.
Meanwhile – over on Garbage Time, we talk quite a bit of hockey talk. From the Montreal Canadiens playoff aspirations to Alex Ovechkin now holding the NHL all time goal-scoring title. To offset all the sports talk we then talk about House of X and Powers of X and you won’t believe how you’re supposed to pronounce “Powers of X” considering it’s an X-Men book. If you would like to show your support and head over to Patreon and subscribe at the 9ES Deluxe tier to listen to this and all past episodes of Garbage Time that would be appreciated.
Enjoy the show(s)!
