Cristina: Warning. This program contains strong themes meant for a mature audience. Discretion is advised.
Jack: Going live in five, four.
Cristina: What does live mean?
Jack: Welcome to the Just Conversation podcast. The show where we ground humanity's most absurd and baffling ideas and guess what? In childish ways. I'm your host, Jack.
Cristina: And I'm your host, Christina.
Jack: And if you haven't yet, remember to hit us subscribe button to get notified the second new episode release.
Cristina: Also, this show is most enjoyable with a listening partner to share opinions and ideas on topics we discuss.
Jack: Yes. So be sure to find yourself a listening partner. Anybody, anywhere at all. You choose the powers in your hands. You have the power or I have the power. Which is what he man says.
Cristina: He says I have the power. He says, you have the power.
Jack: The power. And then he becomes he man. Cuz he's a skinny, scrawny little b****.
Cristina: He is.
Jack: Yeah.
Cristina: And then I thought he was always he man.
Jack: No, he has like a sword or something that turns him into not a b****.
Cristina: Really?
Jack: Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Oh, see, that's a proof right there.
Cristina: He's not scrawny.
Jack: He's way smaller.
Cristina: He's smaller. Yeah. Yes. But it's like regular giant muscles becoming even bigger muscles. Like, it's not a huge transformation.
Jack: It's. He's a wide shouldered, non muscular man who then gets hit by lightning or something.
Cristina: And then he's got muscles. He definitely has muscles. Not as big as his transformation muscles, but he still has muscles.
Jack: You think he's muscular? You think he's like a. Because he's wearing like a pink. Like a car. A cardigan. Like a pink cardigan. He's like Fred. Like Fred from Scooby Doo.
Cristina: Oh, yeah. But he still has those big b***.
Jack: Muscles, like exercise t******.
Cristina: Yeah, he definitely works out.
Jack: I wonder what like muscular men think about that.
Cristina: About he man?
Jack: No, about me saying that they're exercise t******.
Cristina: Oh.
Jack: Because like that's what they got. They got exercise t******. Man b****.
Cristina: Their man b****.
Jack: They're moobs.
Cristina: Moves. Yes, they're moobs.
Jack: They're moobs. And like men. Men got a bunch of men got moves. There are muscle man b**** and there's fat man b****. But both are moobs. Yeah, it's like the guys who have the muscle man b**** are like, yeah, I'm so manly. And then they make fun of the guy who has fat man b****. But it's like you both got t***, bro.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: You're pointing at his t*** and making fun of the fact that he has t***. But also, like, you got t***, bro.
Cristina: You could probably move those t*** around.
Jack: Yeah. You're so in tuned with your t***, you can at will move your t*** around.
Cristina: That's pretty.
Jack: You're more in tune with your t*** than women are with theirs. What? What is that?
Cristina: He Man's power. He becomes. He's able to move anything on his body. Like, what is his power?
Jack: I don't. What the f***? He just. I don't know. He just becomes like, Hercules, I guess. He's just like, I'm a normal guy. Then I got the power. Now I got, like, slightly better than average strength.
Cristina: And the sword.
Jack: And the sword.
Cristina: Although he could probably have a sword already. Like, I guess. This one's magical. It does things. Maybe.
Jack: Does the sword have powers? I don't know the story of He Man. We might have to do like a whole episode on He Man.
Cristina: All right. Because I know nothing.
Jack: Yeah, I don't know crap about He man either.
Cristina: How do we bring up He Man?
Jack: How do we bring up He man, what do you mean?
Cristina: Where did he come from? How is he here now?
Jack: I was telling the listeners they have the power.
Cristina: Oh, like He Man. Okay.
Jack: Yes. To choose who listens to the show. The way he man has the power to become slightly more muscular. And presumably a tiny bit probably unread. Like something that doesn't even register on a meter. If you tried stronger than he was.
Cristina: Before, maybe a tiny bit smarter. Like, I'm assuming it's not just his muscles. What if it's other things too?
Jack: What if all his powers are, like, a mild increase?
Cristina: Yeah. So it's like a little faster.
Jack: Yeah. Like, my IQ was 100 before. Now it's 103.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: It's like, okay, he man. I see. Technically, I can't argue that you're better than you were.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: And like, anything helps, I guess.
Cristina: But he's not really superhuman. He's just better. Super him, I guess.
Jack: Not even like, super him. He's like, slightly better him. Slightly.
Cristina: Slightly better Helm. Yeah.
Jack: It's like, before I could bench press 200. Now I can bench press 210. No extra exercise.
Cristina: He has to have more than that. He's gotta have other superpowers. We just don't know his superpowers yet. But I'm sure he has something that makes him super besides his muscles.
Jack: All right, all right, fair enough. Fair enough. So let's. With no knowledge on he man, we don't have a single shred of an idea other than basic things. We know there's a place called Skull Mountain and there's a guy like a skull looking thing.
Cristina: The bad guy?
Jack: Yeah. I don't know if that's a mask he has or if that's like his f****** face or what's happening here.
Cristina: Yeah, I have no idea.
Jack: But like I'm. I'm pretty sure, I'm pretty sure we can piece together what this is about if we just use the tiny little shreds we have now based on what we saw in that photo. He has a pink shirt, he said, but like not an ancient pink shirt. He looks like a normal dude.
Cristina: I don't know. He looks medieval.
Jack: Fair enough. He could be medieval, but like when he turns into he man, he looks like way before medieval. Yeah, he looks like some caveman type of s***. So his powers to become barbaric.
Cristina: Okay, maybe. I don't know. His. His clothing change makes no sense to me. It's like less clothes to protect him. I mean it protects him, but not even his body.
Jack: Like you. Come on, let's be real. You think a stupid cardigan is gonna protect them? Against what?
Cristina: Nothing, I guess. But his whatever. His new clothes isn't doing anything because.
Jack: He'S kind of naked.
Cristina: Yes. It's like this is his sex clothes or something. Like, I don't know.
Jack: And it kind of is because he has like leather straps on or something.
Cristina: Really? That's what it look.
Jack: Yeah, it looks like he's getting ready to like, I have the power to be a dominatrix or something.
Cristina: Okay. Is that his power?
Jack: I don't know. Cuz doesn't look like he like a lot changes. And again, because doesn't look like a lot changes. We're assuming he's like just slightly better than average.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: So like situation arrives. Right. He man is like, I don't know how to park here. This parking is too small.
Cristina: Is there parking? They have horses.
Jack: Yeah. He's gonna park his horse in reverse and he's like, I don't fit in this sequence of like horses that are following one another for whatever reason. And I need to squeeze my horse tactically in between that horse in the front and that horse in the back.
Cristina: Okay.
Jack: And I'm gonna somehow get my horse in the middle, but I can't, my horse is too big or whatever.
Jack: And then he pulls out his sword and he's like, I have the power. And like lightning hits him or whatever. Now he's half N and he's like, ah. If I Turn the steering, the whatever. What do you call the saddle? Not the saddle. The strap thing that you control the horse with.
Cristina: The steering.
Jack: Yes, the horse's steering wheel. If I turn the horse's steering wheel just enough, I can squeeze in perfectly fine, and then boom, problem solved.
Cristina: Wait, when he changes, lightning happens?
Jack: I think so.
Cristina: Does it kill the horses around him fast?
Jack: You know what? It's time for an investigation. Let's see that pulled up. All right, let's see what this looks like. Did he just shoot lightning off of us? What happened?
Cristina: He turned his cat into cat. An armored cat.
Jack: Thus goes the story of he man.
Cristina: How did he not kill it? So that's not lightning.
Jack: It's not lightning. It's power. It's the power. It's the power that he has.
Cristina: What?
Jack: Yeah, he has. He told us. He straight out told us he has the power.
Cristina: Grayskull or something.
Jack: By the power of Grayskull.
Cristina: What is Grayskull?
Jack: It's a mountain.
Cristina: Is it the mountain where the bad guy lives?
Jack: I think so.
Cristina: No, that doesn't make sense. So the bad guy's giving him his.
Jack: Power or he's stealing the bad guy's power. Is he man at the back? Is he man the bad guy here?
Cristina: I don't know.
Jack: Is he man stealing some s*** that doesn't belong to him and the other guy's just kind of trying to get.
Cristina: It back and the power is just transforming things. It could be him, but it could be others things.
Jack: But now I'm conflicted about what this power really does because it made him a little less gay or arguably a little more gay.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: And the only other reference point we have is that he shot this, like, jizzy magic onto his, like, panther or some s***. Was a tiger?
Cristina: I think so.
Jack: And then the tiger got less gay or arguably more gay.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: So it might or might not be making them gayer. And there's no way to really know.
Cristina: It's just protecting them. It's not really protecting him because it.
Jack: Made him have less armor. Or I guess he didn't have armor, so it took away the cushion between him and, like, a sword slash.
Cristina: Why doesn't he just wear normal armor? I don't understand.
Jack: Because he thinks he's a female in video games or something. I don't know.
Cristina: Right. So, okay, let's assume his armor protects him. So then it's just a magic power to bring armor.
Jack: Well, his cat has armor. His cat is safe as anything. Yeah, he clearly doesn't.
Cristina: We have to assume he's as safe as the cat.
Jack: Why?
Cristina: Because what is the point? It has to be to protect him like it protects the cat.
Jack: Why? I'm thinking he just gets. Why can't it be that he gets stronger slightly?
Cristina: No, no. I'm now convinced it's just to shield people with armor.
Jack: On the flip side, when he's parking his horse and he asked for the power, he didn't kill all the horses.
Cristina: No. They just are all covered in horse armor.
Jack: Yes, they all just became armored horses. And he's slightly smarter to park his horse. But also the parking got smaller.
Cristina: It did.
Jack: Because now all the horses have armor. Double edged sword.
Cristina: So he did not become smarter if that was his plan.
Jack: Well, he was average IQ before he did it. Maybe he does the I have the.
Cristina: Power thing and then he realizes what mistake he did.
Jack: Yeah, that 3 IQ is like, oh, I probably shouldn't have done this because now this for a fact doesn't fit. I now see how it would have fit. But also now factually it doesn't fit because there's more armor behind me, in front of me. And my horse is also bigger. So it got. Everything got tighter overall. Even if I know how it would.
Cristina: Have fit before, how does this make sense?
Jack: The question is, does he have the power to turn it on and off? Can he do it then turn it off and boom, all the horses lose their armor. And now does he retain the information and he can use at the park, I'm assuming?
Cristina: No.
Jack: So he just loses like if even if he knew, he transforms backwards and boom, it just left him?
Cristina: Yes. No, I guess not. But then like if that. I don't know. It's complicated. Like, what's the difference of him losing his clothes once the magic is away and him losing the memories? I feel like the memories will stay, but the clothes shouldn't. I don't know.
Jack: Like that's weird. Is he just gonna have clothes? Suddenly I get the clothes, like burning off or disappearing or whatever. And then you go about your day as he man. Did he have a name before he man? Whatever.
Cristina: Prince something.
Jack: Right? It has to be, right?
Cristina: Prince Adam, I think I read. Really like that? I don't know.
Jack: Cool. He's a prince though, this prince dude who somehow. What is he? That guy who pulled the sword from the rock?
Cristina: No, that's Arthur.
Jack: Arthur?
Cristina: Arthur.
Jack: Is he like the cartoon version of Prince Arthur?
Cristina: Yes, why not?
Jack: Pulls a sword out and then he's not Prince Arthur, but he's definitely he man. And what the h*** does that mean? It's like Guy dude.
Cristina: I guess he became more of a man. He is.
Jack: He was just Prince, but now he's not just a he. He is also a he who's a man.
Cristina: He wasn't a man before.
Jack: He was a he boy.
Cristina: He boy? Yeah.
Jack: He went from he boy to he man. That's his power.
Cristina: But what makes him more of a man? How? Shirtless, muscular, muscles bigger, make you more man.
Jack: Maybe it makes him braver too. Okay, so before he's like, oh, I'm too scared to park this horse. But then he doesn't. He's like, I'm confident now and I can easily park this horse.
Cristina: I don't know. I need to see this show. I don't know if he's actually any of these things or he's just a normal. Like, there's no difference. If you saw him before the powers and after the powers, there's completely nothing has changed except he's a little more muscular and he has protection.
Jack: And like, who's the bad guy and why?
Cristina: You said a skeleton, dude.
Jack: Yeah, I'm not sure if that's like what he look is. He is like walking, talking skeleton from Skull Mountain. Is it his mountain? Is he like the guardian of the mountain? Or does he wear a skull because he lives in the mountain? Like, is he a skull or is he wearing a skull?
Cristina: If there's magic, he could be a skeleton.
Jack: And he man is just stealing his magic then with the sword that probably belongs to that skeleton?
Cristina: Maybe. Yeah, maybe he stole this sword from him. Who knows, man?
Jack: Is there like an origin as to how the f*** he.
Cristina: Or he took it from the rock? If you think he's like Arthur.
Jack: D***. And then what would the conflict even be? He's the bad guy, Then it's the freaking. The skeleton's trying to get the sword back. Yeah, he's trying to reclaim his property because his powers. I was protecting it for who knows how long. It's too dangerous to fall into the hands of normal people. And then this troll popped up and took it. And now he just has the power to give random armor.
Cristina: I don't know. Maybe he regular villains just want to destroy the world for no reason in those cartoons. So probably.
Jack: So then the argument here would be the guy at Skull Mountain at Grayskull. One of those two names is correct. I know he said Grayskull, but is Skull Mountain called Grayskull?
Cristina: If there maybe there's two different mountains that have skull in the name.
Jack: Like every mountain in this universe is just a giant skull.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: And he happened to go to the one with the sword.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: Or he. No. Or he stole the. Or he took this. He found the sword in one. In Skull Mountain. And then the guy from Grayskull is like, oh, s***, there was a sword. I picked the wrong mountain to be in. That mountain over there had a f****** sword.
Cristina: But he says Grayskull. So the sword should be at Grayskull.
Jack: Power of Grayskull. So Skull Mountain is the other guy's mountain.
Cristina: Yeah, that's right. If there is a Skull Mountain.
Jack: Unless it's the same mountain. Unless Skull Mountain is Grayskull.
Cristina: No, there's a bunch of mountains that are all skulls. Skulls. Yes. Except one is gray.
Jack: Yes. One is gray. And the other one is just a.
Cristina: Bunch of skulls that make up a mountain.
Jack: Interesting. Interesting. It's not even really as much a mountain as it is a pile.
Cristina: It's a pile of skulls.
Jack: Gray skull is a mountain. Skull Mountain is a pile of skulls.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: And the.
Cristina: It's, like, infused with dirt, so it looks kind of mountain like.
Jack: And then the skull guy lives in the Skull Mountain.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: Because he. He's a sentient skull. Like, there were so many skulls. Kind of like Pokemon.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: Something just.
Cristina: There's just a lot. For some reason. Maybe he is a murderer. Maybe these mountains are because he loves to murder.
Jack: He's just making mountains out of human skulls.
Cristina: Yeah. I think there's monsters in this show, Right. He was attacked by a monster. I think we saw.
Jack: Like, we're forgetting the fact that there's powers here.
Cristina: All we know is the power to put shields on people armor and become.
Jack: Slightly more or less gay.
Cristina: Or more buff. Did his cat turn more buff?
Jack: Did his cat turn more buff?
Cristina: Think so. I don't know. Maybe. I think it did change a little.
Jack: Interesting. Okay, this is pulled up again, right? So he does this thing, a bunch of. Is this like lightning or some s***? But he's just. This clothes just rips off. He has like a wing.
Cristina: There's a skull behind him that's like a castle skull thing. Is that the Grayskull Mountain?
Jack: But was he already.
Cristina: He does turn bigger.
Jack: He did grow. Yeah, he grew.
Cristina: He grew.
Jack: He grew. Yeah. That's crazy. He really, really did get bigger.
Cristina: He did.
Jack: Fascinating.
Cristina: That is part of the power.
Jack: And, like, how do we get back to the image of this mountain? Like, there's information without. Without watching this show. We're going to piece it together, man. That's his. His. Hold on, hold on. Put sound on. Bring the sound in.
Cristina: This is a different video.
Jack: Bring the sound in spooky stuff. Oh, don't be silly. I'm not being silly. I'm being careful.
Cristina: And tiger. Scooby Doo.
Jack: All right. If you won't go with me, I know someone who will. Namely Battle Cat. I have a power of Grayskull. Yeah. Oh, that's Grace. But he's not at graysc Skull. Why is he just suddenly a gray skull? And he's just gonna give him confidence. So I was kind of right.
Cristina: Yeah. Yeah.
Jack: And now what? Now he sounds like a thug. It's like, yeah, I'm ready G. I'm ready my G. Let's do this.
Cristina: He forced his tiger to transform.
Jack: And it's like tiger didn't even want to. He's like, I'm scared. Don't do this to me. And like, that's not fair. You're just gonna transform me to be confident. And it's like. So he's still scared inside that bigger thing.
Cristina: That's why he's not like, yeah.
Jack: Cuz he's not saying, well, yeah, do the thing. So I'm confident he's saying, oh no, that's not fair.
Cristina: You can't hurt inside of the tiger.
Jack: Yes. He's jackaling. And hide this m***********.
Cristina: Oh my gosh. That's so much worse. That's so horrible.
Jack: So he's kind of the bad guy to some degree at least. In that. In exchange.
Cristina: In that exchange, yes.
Jack: Cuz that tiger was like, come on, bro, you really do this right now.
Cristina: That sucks. That sucks a lot.
Jack: Sucks hard.
Cristina: That tiger is Scooby Doo, though.
Jack: Oh yeah. He was terrified. So he does get more confident. But he man didn't get more confident. In fact, personality wise, absolutely nothing changed.
Cristina: He's probably more confident, but he's already confident. So it's just the boost of.
Jack: So then we're looking at what I was saying.
Cristina: It's like a.
Jack: Like if his confidence stat is 200, then right now he's like 205.
Cristina: Yeah. That has to be it, right?
Jack: Yeah, it's like slightly more. It's like whatever. But it's better than it was.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: Which is not wrong.
Cristina: Yeah. But it has to be even more than we think. Because he turned a coward into someone who's ready to murder.
Jack: Yes.
Cristina: So it has to be more than we are thinking.
Jack: But also the cat knows something that we don't. Which is why he was like, not cool. So the cat presumably remains the cat trapped inside the body of this thing that's gonna do everything. In fact, he said, I Know somebody who is willing to go in.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: Battle cat.
Cristina: Yep.
Jack: A different cat.
Cristina: Yes. Which you said. Jackal and Hyde. Yeah, Jackal and Hyde. Oh, my gosh.
Jack: And he's, like, forcing the other to come out with his he man power Jizzy Magic power.
Cristina: Yeah. So if he does transform into someone else, too, it's probably not that different.
Jack: From himself, which is why we can't tell the difference.
Cristina: Yeah, that's why we can't tell the difference. Oh, my gosh.
Jack: Or in his case, it's a tiny little boost of all stats, but in the case of everything else, it's different. The whole other personality comes out. Then again, he has a f****** talking tiger.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: Like, it brings us down to the. Again, he's f****** Scooby Doo, the tiger.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: And that's confusing.
Cristina: And there was a Grayskull Mountain, which.
Jack: He wasn't even at, but then he did the transform. Now we can say that that transformation is just showing us the original place he got the power. Kind of like Sailor Moon. Like, she's not suddenly in space transforming, but, you know, we see it like she is, because that's where it happened or whatever. Or when, like, the Power Rangers transform, they're not, like, you see, they're not, like, in some void of color.
Cristina: Oh.
Jack: It's like, well, I'm the Blue Ranger. I exist in just blueness while I transform.
Cristina: So is the rainbow helping them transform? Are you saying that, like, the thing that's surrounding them is what's the energy? That's.
Jack: No, they just, like, disappear into some. What, the Power Rangers?
Cristina: Yeah. All these examples.
Jack: No, I don't think they're anywhere. I don't think they go anywhere.
Cristina: No, I'm not saying, like, what we're seeing is what's giving them the actual power.
Jack: Interesting.
Cristina: Not that it's there or they're. They're transporting or anything. We're just seeing where the power comes from.
Jack: Could be. That's very fascinating, because in the case of he man, he's at Gray Mountain. Gray Skull.
Cristina: Yeah. And that's giving him the power.
Jack: Yes. So in the case of the Sailor Moon squad of Sailor somethings, they're all in space because they get their powers from space.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: Interesting.
Cristina: Makes sense.
Jack: And the Power Rangers are getting their color from a rainbow, apparently.
Cristina: I think so. It makes sense, I guess it's like.
Jack: I'm the Blue Ranger, so I get the power from blue.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: Wouldn't that make the Blue Ranger the most powerful one, though?
Cristina: Why?
Jack: Because blue is the color that comes through best.
Cristina: Then Red is the weakest.
Jack: Yeah. But red is always a captain.
Cristina: There's something wrong with the Power Rangers.
Jack: Yeah. It should have been the blue one, be the captain, because he's the, like, ultimate.
Cristina: Well, I guess they didn't know about where these powers came from.
Jack: On the flip side, when the White Ranger shows up in the original Power Rangers, he became the captain immediately, which makes a lot of sense. He's pure light without it breaking down. Bam.
Cristina: Is. Is there a black one?
Jack: There is a Black Ranger.
Cristina: Is he also. Would he be super strong or super weak?
Jack: He should. Well, it depends. Right. Because there's the. Black is a controversial thing. 1. Because it's not a color. I'm not sure why it's. That's. Neither is white, to be honest.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: But also kind of white. White is. And white isn't a color because white is the collection of every color.
Cristina: Yeah. So it should definitely have the most power.
Jack: Yes. Black is also every color, but it can also be none of them. So black is the lack of color.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: But also, if you were to combine almost every color, but not every color, you'd have black sooner than white. When you add that last tiny bit, you get white.
Cristina: Okay, so he should be the second. Stronger.
Jack: He should be the second is the power tier in Power Rangers. Should start at white, go to black, then blue, then blue, then I don't know the rest. Then yellow, then about green.
Cristina: Should it be green, then yellow?
Jack: Yes, it should be green. It should be white, black, blue, green, yellow, pink, red.
Cristina: Yes. That is the rank. The strong.
Jack: Yes.
Cristina: Power Rangers.
Jack: That is ranking. If they're. If they get their power from the colors that make it through the spectrum. Visible, human. I guess. Eyes.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: Then in that case, the Red Ranger would be the weakest. There's no way he could be the captain. Unless the captain has to be the weakest because he has the most perspective. And then we're talking. Then we're talking that the Power Rangers are incredibly philosophically.
Cristina: No.
Jack: And it's like the weakest must be the leader because you have the most perspective on struggle and thus you are the most appropriate to lead the rest of the Rangers.
Cristina: But as a character, does he seem to struggle the most?
Jack: He's always the angriest.
Cristina: He's always angry. That's so lame. Like red and anger. Okay. How cliche is the pink one involved with love?
Jack: Yes. She's always f****** the Red Ranger. Oh, of course, we don't get that direct. You know, it's a child's cartoon. Or not even cartoons like A weird live action mess for children. Yes, but like Pink Ranger is like the cheerleader who f**** the jock who's Red Ranger.
Cristina: Okay.
Jack: And blue is usually a nerd and yellow nerd too. I remember when the yellow was Asian which brought up the question of is she the Yellow Ranger because she's Asian.
Cristina: Have they all been Asian?
Jack: No. It began that the original Yellow Ranger and I'll explain why this is a problem. Red and pink were white people, yellow was Asian. Tell me what color the Black Ranger was.
Cristina: Hispanic.
Jack: No, he was also black, so quite possibly it was originally racist.
Cristina: Are you sure? Yes. Alright. Okay.
Jack: Factually. Okay, here we go. Nice and pulled up.
Cristina: This is all crazy.
Jack: Yep.
Cristina: Are you sure is pink really? I don't know.
Jack: Was it Kimberly and Trini? Where's the name Trini? I don't f****** know. Yeah, cuz the next one was Tanya. D***, do I remember them. So it's from left to right here we got Billy, the Blue Ranger. He's the nerd.
Cristina: Billy?
Jack: Yeah, Billy had to be the wackest name then Trini, the Yellow Ranger because she's Asian. Then a good old fashioned red blooded American, Jason.
Cristina: Oh, okay.
Jack: Jock, sporty guy and he's f****** who? Kimberly, the cheerleader girl who was literally a cheer. She was literally a cheerleader and he was literally a jock.
Cristina: These are adults though.
Jack: They were like in high school or something. Oh, they look like adults.
Cristina: Yeah, they look like adults.
Jack: Yeah, no, they were like in high school or some s***.
Cristina: Okay.
Jack: College or something. They were definitely in school.
Cristina: All right. Yeah.
Jack: And then Black Ranger, whose name was Zach because he's got. That's a cool last name. But he's got to be black because he's the Black Ranger and had you. How else do you, you know who's in the suit if he ain't the color of, of the suit?
Cristina: That is so ridiculous. Yes, it's just to make you remember the characters easier.
Jack: Yes. You think Red Ranger, who's inside that? Oh, the red blooded American Black Ranger. Who's in there? Oh, the black guy. Yellow Ranger. Who's in there? Oh, the yellow girl.
Cristina: Oh.
Jack: Power. Go go power. But I did get in trouble for this actually.
Cristina: And then they had to change it up. Are those the same people? Those are different people. This is a whole different show.
Jack: They are. No, that's the same exact show. That's the same team. Except they stopped the Black Ranger from being a black guy and they made him like this Asian looking dude and they stopped the Yellow Ranger from being an Asian and made Her. The black girl. So they kind of swapped it so they can still have a black person and an Asian but be less racist about it.
Cristina: They fixed the problem.
Jack: They fixed the problem by swamping their races.
Cristina: Wow.
Jack: But like, everybody else is still the same. All the other characters are still the same characters. It's just the racist ones that changed.
Cristina: Awesome.
Jack: They were literally just addressing that problem.
Cristina: Yeah. That's so. It's horrible. It's all horrible.
Jack: Yeah.
Cristina: That's so horrible. Oh my gosh. Why didn't they just get rid of all of them? I don't.
Jack: Because it was too obvious. Right.
Cristina: So wrong.
Jack: Just make it so that somehow we all gotta leave and now it's less racist because we're all not racially associated with a color.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: But no, they clearly obviously knew the problem was we're kind of racist.
Cristina: So we'll fire the only two different people and hire two new different people.
Jack: They straight out fired the Asian and the black for their mistake.
Cristina: Yes. Instead of like, maybe keep them but arrange them differently.
Jack: Yes.
Cristina: Maybe fire some black. I mean, some of the white people and you know, hire some.
Jack: Yep.
Cristina: Other things.
Jack: Just an Asian and the black have to be executed for another Asian and black. This is America. Don't catch you slipping up. And they were caught slipping up. Not that it was their slip up, but they were in the middle of a slip up.
Cristina: Yeah. Wow.
Jack: They should have been like, I don't want to be the Black Ranger cuz I'm black. That's racist. It's his fault.
Cristina: It's his fault.
Jack: It's his fault for taking the job. He should have been more woke. I guess this is before Wokeness happened.
Cristina: Yeah. Okay.
Jack: But he got what he deserved for taking the role. I should cancel him.
Cristina: What?
Jack: We should bring an entire movement and cancel the guy who played Zack for feeding into the stereotype. Same thing with the girl who played Trini. She needs to also be fired from life because. Because she took a role that was racist.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: We're canceling people because of their past, right?
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: Even if it was normal and okay.
Cristina: Back then, they had nothing to do with those decisions.
Jack: They picked the cat. They said, yes, I'll do it. They said, yes, I'll do it.
Cristina: Okay.
Jack: So they're just as guilty for creating these racist characters.
Cristina: So awful. Yeah.
Jack: When are we gonna cancel Power Rangers?
Cristina: We can't now. Wait. We're gonna cancel the whole thing?
Jack: Yeah, all of it. All the old stuff has to be taken down off of shelves. But like, here's the problem here's problems. Okay, so we know that whatever they're getting the colors from rainbows or whatever. You know what? You know what? Let's find a transformation. So we're gonna pull this up right here. I want to see. I want to see what it looks like. It's Morphin Time. Oh, because they're getting the power from the little thingy they're holding, Right? So we see the thingy they're holding even if they're not, like, existing inside of it. And they got a dance. Because they get their powers from dance as well.
Cristina: No, but there was lightning or something happening.
Jack: And you know what's interesting? You know what is really f****** interesting? Flash also gets his power from some sort of lightning field.
Cristina: He does?
Jack: Yes. The Speed Force looks like lightning.
Cristina: It does look like lightning. Okay, makes sense.
Jack: Okay, okay. There's a. There's a pattern forming here. Let's find out.
Cristina: Powers come from lightning.
Jack: Let's find out what it looks like when the sailor girls transform. Now we find out if they have lightning here too. She's gonna just be eating cheesecake, bro. Necessary for transform.
Cristina: They're having a whole speech before this transformation.
Jack: Maybe it's part of the transformation.
Cristina: Can you wash them?
Jack: Maybe that Kagome. They have a little doohickey, right?
Cristina: Just like Power Rangers.
Jack: Tell me. There's lightning, bro.
Cristina: There's lights, there's sparkles, stars, bubbles.
Jack: They got wands in their nails.
Cristina: They have specific colors too. Like Power Rangers.
Jack: Interesting.
Cristina: See, green.
Jack: Are colors really a source of power, I'm assuming?
Cristina: Yes. The power. The rainbow is the most powerful thing you can get powers from. Who knew?
Jack: So, like, catching a rainbow isn't even about the gold.
Cristina: But now they're in. What is this?
Jack: This is some void of, like, energy.
Cristina: It's not space. It's energy. Okay.
Jack: Did she become bubbles? And what, she's gonna turn to fire, right? Is that what I'm supposed to believe?
Cristina: Fire? Around her, these transformations are long.
Jack: It's like a good half of the episode. She literally has lightning, though. But it doesn't fit because the others didn't have lightning.
Cristina: I think they all have different things.
Jack: Their elements.
Cristina: Yeah. So first their nails change color, and then the elements. The elements First.
Jack: They're. Yeah. First nails and colors. How many of these girls are there?
Cristina: Five, six. A lot like the Power Rangers.
Jack: Wow. This.
Cristina: Oh, my gosh.
Jack: Oh, my God.
Cristina: These. Those are the extra girls, right? Like, they're not the. From the main team. Two of them.
Jack: Wait, we just saw other people transform.
Cristina: Yeah, they're like Extra sailor girls? Oh, no. They are the same girls. Okay. There's just five girls.
Jack: Interesting. That's crazy.
Cristina: There's not much difference, is there?
Jack: Except the lack of lightning.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: There wasn't lightning across the board.
Cristina: No, it's whatever element.
Jack: But then. Okay, so we have some patterns here. We have. He man had definitely some sort of lightning thing going on.
Cristina: And a gray skull, then.
Jack: A gray skull. Yeah, but the Power Rangers had lightning.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: And color. The sailor girls had colors, but not lightning. No, there's a rhythm. Some. Some of these. There's. There's some collective force that everybody's getting their powers from.
Cristina: Yes. I think.
Jack: I think every power that exists comes.
Cristina: From the same thing that's transforming these people.
Jack: Yes. If you transform, there's one source doing it.
Cristina: No way.
Jack: And I think there's crossing lines enough that we can probably zone in on what it is. And I can tell you one specific reason why. Although he man has lightning but not color, and the sailor girls have color but not lightning. What is lightning if not light?
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: Which is just a pure plasma version of color.
Cristina: Yeah. So it's all the colors.
Jack: It's all the colors.
Cristina: Huh? He has all the colors because he's one. Yeah.
Jack: He doesn't need it divided. Yes, but because the sailor girls aren't one and they need to work together.
Cristina: But he works with the tiger.
Jack: No, he uses the tiger. There's a difference. Oh, he has the power.
Cristina: Yeah, he does. Okay.
Jack: He has the power and he can use the power.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: While the sailor girls are working together. Working together. They like the Power Rangers. Like the Power Rangers. And we see that there is lightning giving them. And then boom. The color. The lightning gave him the color.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: We're just not seeing the lightning in the part of the sailor girls. Everybody's getting their powers from light.
Cristina: Yes, they are.
Jack: They are?
Cristina: Yep. Wow. So you think they're really all getting this energy from the same place?
Jack: Yes. The Speed Force.
Cristina: Why the Speed Force? I don't understand.
Jack: Well, it's not. Maybe not necessarily the Speed Force purely. But there's like. The Speed Force is also. I mean, I guess it's not transforming anybody, but it's a source of power. That is light.
Cristina: That is light. Okay, but you think when the Flash gets.
Jack: Flash doesn't transform? No.
Cristina: Yeah, he doesn't transform. But somehow the Speed Force is causing other people to transform?
Jack: Yes. I think it's not just transformation, maybe. But all the good guys get their power from the same place. And all the people from the dark side of the Force as well. Because they got the power lightning thing.
Cristina: What? Bad guys in Star Wars.
Jack: But they got, like, the evil, like, the death lightning thing that they do.
Cristina: Okay. Yes, yes. They have the really weak red one.
Jack: Interesting. Because colors affect that too. They have the whack red light, but then they have, like, force lightning.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: So they sacrifice the power of their lightsaber for other taboo abilities with the same energy. While the Jedi, known for using the lightsaber specifically. That's what they're known for.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: Their focus is on it. So they have, like, the bright colored ones because they're putting their energy into being swordsmen.
Cristina: All right, this is so weird. Okay, so you're saying they're using the same energy source, but then we have another problem. What?
Jack: The bad guys, they're also using the power.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: So all power comes from light. Another example of this is Superman recharges with sunlight. The yellow sun gives him his power.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: He's literally getting pure light to recover.
Cristina: But from the sun.
Jack: From the sun. Pure. Just pure light.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: And the closer he is that he goes to space to recover faster.
Cristina: But that's not from the same place that everyone else is. If you think they're all getting it from.
Jack: Well, they're getting it from light.
Cristina: Oh, just light.
Jack: Yeah. The Speed Force is part of whatever light source.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: Seems to exist in the universe because everybody in Star wars is also in a galaxy far, far away.
Cristina: So they're somehow using the light combined with items usually like he man has a sword. The Power Rangers have badges.
Jack: Yes.
Cristina: Sailor Moon characters have wands.
Jack: Have wands. Yeah.
Cristina: Oh, my God.
Jack: They have channeling tools.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: They have a way to focus the energy.
Cristina: Yes. In the Star Wars. Yeah.
Jack: Okay, interesting.
Cristina: Except for Superman. He doesn't have anything. He just uses. He just somehow absorbs.
Jack: He's become the tool. That's what makes him overpowered. He somehow figured out how to be the channeling thing himself.
Cristina: And that's why he probably has unlimited powers.
Jack: Yes. Because he can filter it through him. He doesn't need some other thing that he has that can contain only a limited amount.
Cristina: Mm.
Jack: If he burns through some of it, it's immediately replenished because there's infinite light everywhere.
Cristina: But we don't see him transform. Is it because it's always on?
Jack: We don't see the people from Star wars transform either.
Cristina: That's true.
Jack: I don't think it's always transformation. I think the source of power.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: Now you can use the source of power to transform. And some people Do?
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: But not everybody does.
Cristina: No. It's so weird. Okay. Yeah.
Jack: Now, interesting enough, the Transformers are, like, sentient robot things.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: Their power is literally transforming into vehicles and s***. Do they also use this sort of power?
Cristina: There's no way.
Jack: Organize a battle unit. We're going after them, man. Like, the origin of this s***'s crazy. They gotta, like, say their name.
Cristina: Well, he wants them to transform in order of the. What? He's saying.
Jack: Oh, God.
Cristina: It's important. But their transformation is pretty magical in that there is no.
Jack: Yeah, it's, like, so pure.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: There's no, like, outside influence on their transformation. See, this is. So what we're saying is, because they're machines, they don't have access to this power that exists pretty much just for biological life forms. They're not biological, although they're life forms. They are mechanical life forms.
Cristina: Not the same.
Jack: Yeah, they're somehow, like, synthetic to some degree, so they don't have access to it. It seems like the human element allows us to access this pure energy.
Cristina: So strange. I don't get how cars. Are they on a different planet, transforming. When they were on their planet, they were transforming already.
Jack: That's weird, right? When they were on their own planet, were they transforming into cars? Like, are they. The. Like, cars were invented because humans saw Transformers as well. That's what we're finding out, right? Like, trucks weren't a thing before. Somebody saw a truck, etched it on a f****** wall somewhere, and then a million years later, somebody saw, like, let's f****** make that thing. Yes, but they just saw the f****** Autobots or some s***, right?
Cristina: Mm.
Jack: Well, no, that's actually wrong.
Cristina: That's wrong.
Jack: That's wrong. Because there was a time that they would turn into animals.
Cristina: What?
Jack: Yeah. Okay. Transformers, Beast Wars.
Cristina: Ew.
Jack: Giant spider thing. So this is in the prehistoric times.
Cristina: That's a cheetah. That's not prehistoric.
Jack: I don't. I don't know what the f***. Like, it's a giant bug. That's prehistoric.
Cristina: A rhino?
Jack: Yeah. But these transformations have no electricity.
Cristina: No.
Jack: They are really just these robots. But see, this kind of proves that they're just. They were transforming into whatever was in.
Cristina: The area before these things in the area. Is there actual animals there? Or are they just transforming into things that we see?
Jack: I don't know if there was anything else in that world.
Cristina: What if that's their imagination? They're creating these things that are super similar to what. What's been on our world for some reason.
Jack: That's weird.
Cristina: But this is Just imagination.
Jack: That's so complicated. For a couple of reasons. Because then we have to assume that even if they're on their planet somewhere far away from us at all times, they're somehow connected to what's actively happening on planet Earth.
Cristina: Even if they've never seen it. Anything.
Jack: Yeah, there's dinosaurs out here, okay. They can turn into f****** dinosaurs for that time. So they have some integral connection to what's happening on Earth. So the argument would be we don't see them transform using the energy because they're literally made of the energy and that's how they're connected actively to what's happening.
Cristina: But is Superman made of the energy?
Jack: No, Superman's channeling the energy. That's why he has to go up and recharge.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: They're not, they just have powers for.
Cristina: Whatever f****** reason they're made of.
Jack: Made of the energy.
Cristina: Wow.
Jack: And so they're always connected. And so whatever's happening on Earth, us, the people who need channeling of energy, they. Some. They're connected to the Force. They can. They know they are the thing.
Cristina: But the Force is somehow connected to us though.
Jack: Well, the Force is the energy. It's just a name for that energy.
Cristina: The energy of Earth, of the universe. The universe. Okay.
Jack: They're not on Earth. And also the people who are using the Force aren't on Earth either. They're in a galaxy far, far away.
Cristina: They just pick things that are here. But maybe there are versions that they could turn into things that are not here but somewhere else. You know, like maybe there's plants on Superman's home planet that they could turn into, even though they've never been there either.
Jack: Like, interesting. I guess I would explain why there would be both a rhino and a pterodactyl.
Cristina: Yeah. Has nothing to do with Earth. It could be like maybe the rhinos from here, but the pterodactyls from another planet that has dinosaurs right now for.
Jack: Some reason, or through any point in time as well. Because you're connected to this force that exists always.
Cristina: Yes. It could be anytime too.
Jack: So rhinos and pterodactyls from Earth, even if it's from totally different times.
Cristina: Mm.
Jack: Interesting.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: So d***. Is there anything else that uses the electricity then? We know if you're robotic and somehow sentient, you are like part of the energy. The energy's within you. It's what's powering you.
Cristina: You don't know any other transformers?
Jack: Anything that transforms? Somebody who has ability to transform into some other s***. Interesting. Okay, here's a weird one. Yu. Yu. Hakusho.
Cristina: There's transforming there.
Jack: There's a specific character. Kuramu Kakamaru, the f****** red haired guy who turns into this like white haired wolf thing.
Cristina: I don't remember him turning into a wolf thing.
Jack: Yes, but maybe he definitely does. I just don't remember if he has lightning associated with it. Yes. Now let's see. Let's see. Yes. Okay, that doesn't seem right at all. But let's see. Okay, what are we seeing? It's like smoke. It is like lightning.
Cristina: It is like.
Jack: It is like lightning. Lightning.
Cristina: It's like fire, but it's white like lightning.
Jack: Literally, lightning in the clouds.
Cristina: You saw that? Okay.
Jack: Holy.
Cristina: And then his hair is different. No.
Jack: Oh my God. No way, bro.
Cristina: I think it's always lightning. Like every transformation is the same thing, but they all look the same when.
Jack: Dragon Ball Z. Yeah, yeah. I think it's always lightning. Yeah, to the point that the stronger you are, you literally at some point just have lightning surging around you. There we go.
Cristina: There was some lightning. There was some lightning.
Jack: There's lightning. Oh, yes.
Cristina: Oh, there's some lightning on.
Jack: Pure light and lightning.
Cristina: Both of them.
Jack: Both Vegeta and Goku.
Cristina: One of them's dead though.
Jack: Yes.
Cristina: You can still use this power while dead.
Jack: Because it doesn't matter. You don't have to be on. It's universal. It's anywhere you are at any moment, at any state, this energy exists.
Cristina: Wow.
Jack: Fascinating. This is very, very fascinating. So we know every transformation. Actually, any use of power involves some sort of plasmic or light based source.
Cristina: Yes. All from the same source.
Jack: All from the same source. There's some sort of universal thing that everybody's tuning into, meaning one way or another, everything exists in the same universe.
Cristina: What?
Jack: I mean, it's possible they're all using the same energy. We could chalk it off to alternate universe or not. It exists in the same multiverse, then, because we have different universes with different Earths.
Cristina: Yes, that's exactly it.
Jack: But the power that exists transcends the concept of a singular universe because it's shared equally. Meaning the power exists in the multiverse.
Cristina: Yes. Oh, which makes sense. Even with Flash's power, isn't that in the multiverse too?
Jack: Yes, because he can travel to different universes using it. And he can travel to different periods of time of any universe using it.
Cristina: Oh my gosh. The. What's it called again?
Jack: The Speed Force. The Speed Force, which in Star wars is just called the Force.
Cristina: The Force The Speed Force and the Force are the same thing.
Jack: Yes. It's the universal energy.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: So I'm not even gonna call it the Speed Force anymore. It's the universal energy.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: Well, actually, it's the multiversal energy.
Cristina: Multiverse energy.
Jack: Yes.
Cristina: That you could actually travel through, but you can also use.
Jack: But also channel it through an object yourself. You can use it as a weapon. You can travel through it. It is God.
Cristina: Wow. Yes, it is God.
Jack: It is within everything, within everyone. You just have to learn how to use it or learn to channel it properly.
Cristina: Yeah. Oh, my gosh.
Jack: The universal energy is God.
Cristina: It has to be right.
Jack: It has to be. It's not thinking. Although they would tell you the opposite in Flash, because the Speed Force does have a mind of its own.
Cristina: It does care about things. It doesn't like to be used inappropriately.
Jack: Yes. Which brings up an interesting point. People who use powers incorrectly tend to be corrupted by them.
Cristina: Oh, my gosh.
Jack: So maybe kind of applies whether or not we're talking about.
Cristina: It's still a God, though. It's just. It doesn't have. You could be bad and use it. You just can't abuse it.
Jack: Yes.
Cristina: Like, that's all that it sees as wrong.
Jack: Yes.
Cristina: But it doesn't really care what you do. Yeah.
Jack: Morally speaking, it doesn't give a s***.
Cristina: Yeah. Just don't use it inappropriately to it.
Jack: Yeah.
Cristina: Yes. Whatever that means.
Jack: Yeah. Don't abuse God.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: You can use God for whatever you want.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: But don't abuse God.
Cristina: Yes. Whoa.
Jack: Interesting. Interesting.
Cristina: Oh, my gosh.
Jack: So going back to he man.
Cristina: Is.
Jack: He man abusing God? No. Because he's using tiny little doses.
Cristina: Yeah. I don't think so. He abused his friend, definitely. But that wasn't abuse of power. It was just abuse of animal.
Jack: Yeah. Yeah. Because he's not abusing God, AKA the multiverse energy.
Cristina: Yeah. Maybe if you attacked everyone with the light, then it'd be inappropriate. I don't know.
Jack: Well, no, I guess it would be using the light in a sort of a wasteful way.
Cristina: In a wasteful way, yes.
Jack: If you think of Flash's interpretation of it, the. The energy thought it was being misused when he was consistently using it for selfish reasons, trying to alter time. And when the Reverse Flash also started abusing it, that the Reverse Flash literally had to stop using that energy and come up with his own version of the Speed Force.
Cristina: Okay. Yeah.
Jack: So because he was being purely selfish, instead of using it to accomplish simple tasks or something, it was being considered abuse.
Cristina: Yeah. And In Star wars, how does it turn dark?
Jack: Well, you start using it for. It's weird because not everybody gets corrupted. Some people just like doing bad things, but some people do get corrupted by it. I'm not sure where the line is though.
Cristina: What do you have examples?
Jack: Yes. Count Dooku is a very reasonable, clear minded guy who is trained by Yoda.
Cristina: Mm.
Jack: He doesn't seem to have been swallowed alive by the Force. He's clear minded. He just. Yes. He just supports the bad side, but he's clear minded.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: While the Sith Lord seems f****** gone.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: Like he's not there at all. He's being manipulated by this evil energy, but he's also like corrupted and weird.
Cristina: Yeah. I feel like the Force, though, is damaging him. Like he used it so much that it's also abusing him. That's what's happening.
Jack: That's what they mean by abuse. Don't get addicted to the Force, just.
Cristina: Like the evil Flash guy. Oh my.
Jack: Yes. There's a. There's a rhythm here.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: Don't get addicted to it and keep using it over and over and over and over and over and over. He man uses it to achieve a purpose and then doesn't just hang out using it.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: When there's a purpose, when there's a reason, then I use it.
Cristina: And Goku, even though it's unlimited and he keeps going up, there's a rhythm to him also using. He hasn't jumped up or anything. He's like working his body to be comfortable with it.
Jack: His body adapting.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: It's not like drugs. He trains to be able to withstand it.
Cristina: Yes. Which no one else does.
Jack: Yes. While in the case of Vegeta, he literally gets corrupted sometimes because he's not using it. He's not like just training his way up sometimes. He just wants the power.
Cristina: Mm.
Jack: So he can't handle it all the time.
Cristina: Yeah. Oh my God.
Jack: Interesting. So don't get addicted to the Force is the ultimate lesson. Use it carefully, with moderation.
Cristina: Yes. And still you can. You can do whatever you want with it.
Jack: You could seemingly do whatever, but it needs to be. You have to be able to control it. There you go. It's hard to control. And if you're using it without being able to control it, that counts as abuse.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: What now? I guess that tosses out the window whether he man is good or bad because it ultimately doesn't matter.
Cristina: No.
Jack: Like morally speaking, the multiverse energy doesn't give a s***.
Cristina: Not at all.
Jack: Because he man is using it in moderation yeah. And that's what matters. And he's turning his cat into a f****** other thing. But his cat can handle it too.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: Which is why it doesn't matter.
Cristina: Even.
Jack: If the cat hates it and he's being Mr. Jackal and Dr. Hyde or.
Cristina: Mr. Hyde and Dr. Jack hate it because it is killing him.
Jack: Then does that is the cat who's gonna get punished or is it he man?
Cristina: Yeah. What if it's the cat that's getting punished every time he does that?
Jack: Interesting. Because he man isn't like he can control it.
Cristina: He's fine. He's fine because he's doing it when he's ready. This cat's being forced.
Jack: This cat's being foreign.
Cristina: So like, maybe some years are getting off his life or whatever.
Jack: That's like.
Cristina: We don't know. This might be multiple reasons why this cat hates it.
Jack: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. His life is getting shortened. Or he's slowly becoming evil and he doesn't like the bad thoughts he's having or something.
Cristina: Yes. Yep.
Jack: He man.
Cristina: But when it comes to the Power Rangers, do the villains also use this power or is it just the Power Rangers?
Jack: The villains do. In fact, they all have this weird lightning ability when they're showing up or some s*** like that.
Cristina: Do they also transport?
Jack: Yes. Holy s***. And they also use f****** lightning to get bigger and s***. Yeah, they get hit by lightning or something.
Cristina: Do they sometimes corrupt?
Jack: They're always corrupted.
Cristina: Oh, okay.
Jack: In fact, the only people who aren't. If we just think of the original Power Rangers, it's that lady Rita and her husband.
Cristina: These are.
Jack: They can learn how to control it, but they're forcing this power on other s*** that goes berserk.
Cristina: Oh my gosh. Yes.
Jack: Interesting.
Cristina: They force their minions to have the power, but the minions aren't ready.
Jack: They're not ready.
Cristina: So then. Yeah. Whoa.
Jack: Whoa.
Cristina: Wow. We found the connection.
Jack: Yeah. We connected everything.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: Wow. That's kind of crazy.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: That's kind of amazing.
Cristina: Mm. Did you think you were gonna connect all this?
Jack: H*** no. But I also didn't realize that there was such a pattern of electricity and like the sort of plasmic energy that exists not just in our universe, but in all universes within the multiverse.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: That's crazy.
Cristina: That is crazy. I'm guessing the Transformers can ever corrupt because they are. So they're always ready for whatever they do.
Jack: Yes, yes. Yes. That's why there's not like somebody losing their f****** mind. They're just in disagreement.
Cristina: Yeah. Whoa.
Jack: Interesting. Anyways, we're running out of time. But holy. I. The last thing I expected was to discover that there is a multiverse energy that exists within all of us.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: That God is just a light. It's. It's a for. Yeah, it's a Force.
Cristina: But you don't want to call him the speed of Force. You want to call him the universal power. No. Energy.
Jack: Multiverse Force. That's what we'll call him.
Cristina: The Multiverse Force.
Jack: Yes. The Multiverse Force.
Cristina: That's not a catchy name, though.
Jack: It's not a catchy name, though. There needs. Because speed Force feels right.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: And so does the Force. Those feel good. Yeah, I guess the Force is pretty sweet. That's okay. Well, they treat it like God.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: It is religion to them.
Cristina: Okay, we'll call it the Force.
Jack: So. Okay. The Force is connected everywhere. Everything. Everything is connected by the Force.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: Wow. I'd say. Look, I'd say you guys can find other episodes where we talk about this the way I usually do, but, like, there's. There's f****** not. Like, this is the first time this s*** has ever crossed my mind, period.
Cristina: Yeah. But we have talked about cartoons.
Jack: Oh, yeah. We literally have an episode in which we're talking about how Scooby Doo became Scooby Doo. If you want some cartoons in your life, is that the only cartoon we've talked about?
Cristina: We talked about Pokemon.
Jack: Oh, yeah, we talked about Pokemon as well. This. Whatever. There's some cartoons in there. There's probably. There's literally a s*** ton of episodes about. What is it? Morphers? Not Morphers.
Cristina: Transformers.
Jack: No, Transformers.
Cristina: Shapeshifters.
Jack: Shapeshifters.
Cristina: Oh, we have a bunch of shape shifting.
Jack: So many episodes.
Cristina: We also talk about what God could be. That's quite a few episodes.
Jack: Well, if we nailed it now. But yeah, there were a bunch of theorized episodes of what God could be.
Cristina: Yep.
Jack: So you guys can go check all of that stuff out at the official website, greatthoughts.info@apple, Podcast, Spotify, or anywhere you get your podcast.

Cristina: The show and let someone who might like this show know about it.
Jack: Yes. Word of mouth is incredibly powerful. And apparently you do have the power. You do literally have the power within you.
Cristina: You just have to.
Jack: He man was right. You just have to learn how to use it.
Cristina: Yeah.
Jack: And not abuse it. Be kind to your fellow man and tell him, with my power, I Will introduce this to you and you will learn how to use your power to introduce it to somebody else. And the good word will spread.
Cristina: Yeah, don't be like he man. And forcing it on to someone.
Jack: Nah, nah, don't do that. That's bad. Be like a good Samaritan, not like he man.
Cristina: This has been the Just Conversation podcast. Take nothing personal and thanks for listening.
Jack: By.
Cristina: Like, we didn't need the robe.
Jack: We don't need the rope. It's crazy, bro, but so many weird traditions to hold. Put your hand on the Bible. What if you're a f****** atheist? This is an easy one for you. You could totally lie under oath. Oath doesn't mean s*** because it's an oath to God who you already think is a f****** mythical.
Cristina: Is it really an oath to God still? They haven't changed that. They need to update that. What if liars. But you. If you lie though, you're gonna get in trouble. You can't just say, oh, but I was. I'm an atheist. So it didn't mean anything to me.
Jack: Well, no, here's. It's not. That's not how it works. The way it works is that they make you put your hand on the Bible and make the oath, swearing to God that you're not gonna lie. Their assumption is if they fear God, they won't lie. You're gonna get in trouble whether or not you believe in God and you lied and you get caught for lying. But they're hoping that you believe in God enough to not lie with your hand on the. After you put your hand on the Bible and swear to God, you wouldn't lie. Okay, but if you don't believe in God, that part of it means f****** nothing.
Cristina: No.
Jack: You just did some s*** that made them feel good.
Cristina: Yes. And made you feel awkward.
Jack: I guess if it makes you feel awkward to put your hand on the Bible. But at that point, maybe the Bible is doing what it's supposed to be doing and you're some sort of like, creature. You didn't even know you were a creature.
Cristina: I've never seen a Bible. You're like, what is this? Why do I have to do this?
Jack: That's crazy. If you live under a rock like that. The crazy rock to live on there.
Cristina: Yes.
Jack: To just have never seen a Bible before. But there are so many weird f****** traditions, man. It's really odd how a courtroom works.
Cristina: Good morning. Good morning. The Just Conversation podcast is hosted by Christina Collazo and Jack Thomas, produced by Lynn Taylor and Published by GreatThoughts.in Fox, art by Zero Lupo and logo by Seth McAllister with social media managed by Amber Black.
