    The Nazis studied the Americans. They were well aware of Americas discrimination practices, That’s why they look identical.

    @14:55 I thought of a scene from HBO's Rome, when a herald (meaning a public newsreader) announces the arrival of Tetrarch Herod to the city and states, "all mockery of Jews and their one god will be kept to an appropriate minimum."

    35:16 "Jews were not being discriminated against...they were merely being treated as separate from the German people, and thus could not be members of the German Olympic team" is a wild statement, because what they admitted to is basically the dictionary definition of discrimination.

    The Jesse Owens gold medals are still pretty cool, IMHO, especially given that the Nazis were also oppressing/would at least go on to also oppress black Germans (they didn't usually go to camps or get as heavily genocided, because there were just way fewer of them than there were German Jews and German Romani, but a lot of them got forcibly sterilized by the Nazis).

      And they're former coworkers, but there are Olympics next month, so it makes sense to do episodes about it.

      Also, Cody took an hour to make a point Robert said once. These episodes are a deeper dive into something Cody mentioned once and moved on

    The Hurt Muppet Locker, Night of the Killer Muppet Ants, and Inception (Starring Gonzo) are some of my favorite pieces of film.
    The median bar of improvement coming from adding Muppets to classic movies is pretty much a universal improvement, still.

    Alien but the xenomorpgh is either a muppet or played by one of the muppets. You can conclude for yourself which one you would find the funniest in the role.

    The comparison Matt made to the trans athlete panic really hit me. They try to find every way to justify their bigotry and they’re all bullshit but they have so many bullshit justifications that they just jump to the next one before you can pin them down to any one.

    There is always some people that think "I am not like other member of my group, I will be accepted after the guys that hate them get power". It is like the dog chasing the car, if they ever get it, it is not pretty.

    Funny thing about Antwerp, in Flemish it's called Antwerpen. As in the plural form. Antwerps. But also in Flemish, Brussels is called Brussel. Just one. Funny.
    My question here is, just why are the Flemings taking all the brussels and trying to pass them off as antwerps? I'm not accusing or anything, I'm just asking questions. But I do think it's funny.

    Idabel, OK? My grandparents were from Davidson, over in Tillman County. Not terribly close, but both are just a bit north of the Red River.
