Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mando. Oh. It's a really cool spin. The Hando. I'm all dizzy after that spin. More like Blando, because there's nothing exciting or interesting about this show. What do you mean? We thought episode three had a heartbeat in it. Did it? Oh, yeah, yeah, that one did. But that doesn't have anything to do with Mando. That somehow is like a show with a story that snuck into the other show. You got lost. This is like the good version of what happened in the Boba Fett show, where the Mandalorian episodes snuck in. This is like that, but good. I think it would have been considered much stronger as a good if it had a bunch of other stories on top, being as alone what it is. I can't believe it. Well, that's there, I guess. Make that anthology. Give some talented writers some anthology. Well, the lady showed back up in episode five, rags. I know. But it was almost like a cameo. It didn't. No, she was like, oh, we don't like Navarro. Because episode four was the goofy like just repeat of episode one, I guess. What was that? Repeat of parts of episode one.  And then, yeah, five was when we did the last episode. And it was the Mando's save Navarro. And they now live there. But also, Bo-Katan is going to lead the Mando's to becoming, I don't know, whole Mando-y. And I hope this is the episode where they find they go back to Mandalore. That's clearly fine. I don't know if we're ever going back to Mando.  That's so funny, though, right? You can take your mask off because you're a leader. It's like, why couldn't Mando have been that? What's the requirement? It's like, you have to have seen the mythosaur. Is that why they knocked out Mando, so he couldn't have seen the mythosaur? I think now looking back, that may have been exactly why they did that. Because it made no sense at all. Pressure either he takes in water or he doesn't. You can't have both. I just love as well. You could just be making it up.  But it's like, whatever. You could just be our leader now. This was directed by Ryan Johnson.  Or it was like, actually, no, the mythosaur wasn't there.  Speaking of directors, this one, this one we're about to watch, is done by Bryce Dallas Hallard, who created the episode in season one that made us all go, holy fuck, this show's dead. That's the fourth episode. Yeah, the fourth episode, yeah. So, boy, what a thing. Comment showcase currently unavailable. Shall do it the next we are available able. Instead for now, we shall basically just jump into the episode, I think. Hell yeah. It was fine with me. I just loved it. I've been waiting all week. You are not Mandalorian. God, that was cringy, wasn't it? You are not Mandalorian. Yeah, remember those other characters that were with her? Does that mean he just didn't know about the Mandalorians? The Darksaber again. It must be one in battle. I guess so, yeah.  Again? Oh, definitely, right? Just stop to what we did with the last episode. She's getting the Darksaber this episode.  I just, I can sense it in my brain hole. What makes the Darksaber heavy? Is it like some kind of like confidence?   I'm pretty sure they mentioned it in season two that like you're not good with the Darksaber because you don't have confidence with it. Or in Boba Fett. It's in Boba Fett, the episode four or whatever. It gets heavier with each move. That is because you are fighting against the blade. Dude.  Well, it's pretty damn powerful, but you should do that. Why does it not weigh him down when the blade is out, though?  Our people have strayed. Wow, so this is just gonna be a Voketan episode done. Also, I love her character. We said this would happen. We said there'd be a POV for her. Please, it's going off to bring other Mandalorians in exile to us.  Is there anything Mandalorian as a show is only designed to grow and then send off other characters into their own shows? This is like the, I don't want to say fertile soil, but it's like the wet napkin in the kindergarten class. You know what it is, Rags, you know what it is? When a baby is like, ooh, chocolate. Yeah, chocolate, you put it real close to the mouth and then you throw in a different thing right at the end.  And they're just like, look, Mando, you like him. Pew, pew, oh, yeah, look, that's cool. Ah, Voketan. Like, wait, what is this? And then Mando appears right at the end of the episode. Like, I'm here though. And you're like, okay. Oh, yeah, I like this then, yes. Yeah, this is great. I saw the thing. Oh, that ship looks like the gun from Fifth Element. Yeah. That's actually a neat looking ship. I like it. I kind of like it too.  It's a fish in there. Oh, you are not. Oh, are you going to pour that in there? Okay. Oh wow, the fish wanted to die. I can't hear you. Be louder. Gesture with your tentacles. I still don't know why the only one needs to be the tank. At least we're getting alien stuff. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's where the budget goes in this show. Why is she in the tank though? Because they're fish people and they do tank water and stuff. They need tank time. I guess that's interesting if they need water or something then the little cylinder pops up for the captain because the captain has to like be present or something. I don't know. That's something. That's a neat little thing. Pale imperial friends. Man, your clothes look very dry. Considering that you're just consumed by liquid. I am not a criminal. I meant to say that we were not aware of the majestic imperial presence in this sector. Wow, that's simple.  We are not imperial either. It's the mandos, yay. We are Mandalorian. You're too late to hire us. Someone has hired. Oh, God, hey, ladies back. We've been commissioned to track you down, Captain Sugath.  We were already hired by a certain Mon Calamari viceroy who has reason to believe you absconded with her son. Oh, OK. So they have captured someone. We finally have peace with the Calamari. Are we doing like Troy here? By the way, I don't believe that those sounds are coming out of that mouth. No, not even close, but that's OK. I won't go. I won't go. Wait, so they kidnapped the child of the leader of the Mon Calamari and thought they could get away with it? I guess. Because they're in love? Hey, lady, no. All right, so just go with the Mandalorians and your chick will be alive and you could meet up with her later. Don't make us damage your girlfriend's pretty little ship. Yeah, like, seriously. You already said it. The ship was too heavily fortified. Just go and then try to meet up later. What a crazy, bad idea that they thought they could get away with. I can't destroy everything I've built for a childish fling. You literally were. That's what you just did. Yeah, you've already on the way. Well, yeah, but now there's like stakes and potential repercussions. I just mean like, wow, this is if they were trying to reach a level of peace with the Mon Calamari, this is going to set it back quite a bit. Come with us, Prince. You can do it. Oh, you're here. OK, hello. Wait, yeah, did they just allow them? OK, Captain didn't give any orders. OK, well, that's about how it should have ended. All right. Yeah, fair enough.   Wushing. The sound effect I always enjoy in space. This is a Star Wars rags. It's shaking all the time. Yeah, because you know how whenever you're on the ground looking up, you're just shaking. Oh, I just love shaking. No. That's quite a fleet. Most of it was captured from the Empire. Yeah, you mentioned they treaded midi for it. Could come in real handy taking back Mandalore. From Mandalore. Nobody has Mandalore. No one cares.  If you think you need a warship. Just bring a guy. Just bring like a lighter and say that you're on fire. I'm your god. Axe Wolves is their leader now. Can imagine wolves will be happy to see you. Yeah, I guess he's trying to get they got to get help from those mandos, even though she's got to have the dark sabre, though you've been assigned a docking flip. Why didn't they leave Baby Yoda with the mandos? Green time. What happened? They've taken control of the ship. Do you have an anti that on your ship? This could be dangerous. It probably will.   I just want to talk to the mandos, but something's going to get in the way that fills the half hour. I guess each of those robots got a hundred kills. That's why they unlock the black. Yeah, pretty sweet. They're badass. Why do they have imperial droids on an independent world? We just established there is a series of empireships on this planet that she stole. Why wouldn't there have been several empire droids on those ships? Also, what do you mean? It's an independent world. Yeah, I guess so. He says it's an independent world. Why would they be empire droids? Like, because the empire fell apart.  It was cheap. Do you grant permission to scan your chain code? What did button did you press to make that happen? The mind button. Your presence has been requested. Please do not attempt to leave the vehicle. Oh, we're being kidnapped. Nice. What if Din Jiren started to vomit because some people like that with, you know, some people, if they're like in a train or something and they're sitting facing backwards, it makes a motion sick. Well, then he's got to take the helm off, throw it back on and then drip a bit of water on him. You could just slip it up and spew it out and then slide the helmet back on. As long as he's got his little capsule of living waters, he can sort himself back out straight away. They're like quasi being kidnapped.  Like, what was the point of all that? Nothing. Oh, my gosh, it's Jurassic Park. See Jack like already. Yep. Oh, it's one of the frog people from the second episode, second season, first episode. Look at him. Yes, that's the frog people. Oh, look, it's a creature from Scorn. There's a lot. Yeah, look at him. Yeah, yeah, that's great. Thanks to the New Republic Amnesty Program, I was able to help rebuild Plaza 15. That's the accent. My husband came here as part of his rehabilitation. Wow, was that like two things stitched together? Was that line to stitch together? Distracting me. I'm glad that you guys are having a good time.  And then they recorded it. She's like, oh, God, I'm being attacked by a baby. I just going to assume the baby can eat this food. Yeah, why not?   And the Mandalorian privateer worships. We hire them for protection. Our charter forbids us from having a military because of my husband's. You're not allowed a military to be allowed to hire mercenaries. Metal knows all about this. How does that work, though?  I guess if it's small enough, it's like how it works in real life.  It depends on what you have. I guess they're not like huge, but they're still pretty big out there. They've got like the they've even got a capital ship. They've got the Star Destroyer as well. We have a problem. A droid problem. We're kind of a droid problem. Malfunction. Well, there's your sidequests, Rags. We have a droid problem. What's that thing following her? Is that part of her dress? Is this like a fucking... Oh. Like, is this like a cosmetic you buy from an MMO? Yeah, yeah. Our constables are ill-equipped to confront battle droids. Great, this sounds like a you problem. Can we talk to the Mandalorians? Former battle droids. They've been rehabilitated for civic duty. You don't have to rehabilitate a droid. How does that make you... Just reprogram it. You just give it programming. Our charter forbids any standing army from entering our city. Our constables aren't even allowed to carry blasters. But you can hire... Okay, you can't carry blasters, but you can hire Mandalorians in a warship. Okay, you lost me. You allowed us to be armed. You are Mandalorians. Weaponry and armor are intrinsic to your culture. Are they not? It's because it's a part of their...  You don't allow any guns here. Unless it's a part of your culture. Like, oh, it is there. We have decided that this is part of our culture. Yeah, exactly. I'm a gloop-of-loom. I need my cannons, okay? It's my religion. What two planets?   They have no clue. This is a crazy deal that they're being offered just because they came here. Yeah. Just say no. We want to talk to the Mandalorians. I'm confused. Why aren't they using... Why aren't they using their current Mandalorians to do this job? Why do they need these two? What do you think? You had me at battle, droids. Okay, I guess you aren't busy and you don't have things to do then. Yeah, because they were saying it was part of your culture to have weapons, but surely it's part of the culture of the mandos that you hired. Yeah, they have like... But are they too sufficiently organized that they're not allowed inside because they count as an army? I just want to say how... They just said that they are allowed those ones. I know. I know. That's what I mean. I don't get it.  I don't understand. Yeah, it looks pretty bad. It's a high Christopher Lloyd. Hello, Christopher Lloyd. Hello. This is just a small collection of malfunctions. Hullo-chum. Hullo-chum. Are we going to get some crazy people getting their heads ripped off by robots or something? That would be strange.  Oh, God, that one's got like knives for hands. Why not turn them off?  There's a failsafe cutoff switch built into this... Oh, it's the big red glowing button. It's the big red glowing button. That's going to come up later. I'm too old to break the glass. They vote against any interruption, huh? What? But they're going haywire. And why is that? The citizens are no longer required to work. Oh, OK. So this episode ends with the robots being dismantled and the people have to work again. It's like a lot of stuff. Yeah, that's how it is. Well, there's only a couple of robots that have a problem.  They's going to buddy cop their way through figuring out what's wrong, probably. Just to understand, you have a huge team of mandos. You could have done this with ages ago. Why these two? I don't get it. Give us the list. Well, for that, you'll have to go to the lower level and speak to the agnots. You don't have it? Why don't you have the list? I was going to say, if you've got the security footage, then you should be able to identify which droids are the ones that are having problems. You'll see what happens when you rely on droids.  Good one, the galaxy has been relying on droids for thousands of years. This motherfucker, maybe got everyone killed at the beginning of this season. By trying to run with that IG-11.   How could he possibly make that call then? He's the only droid I trust, tries to kill me.  He doesn't know how they work. That's one of those big battle droids as well, with the rocket hands. Super battle droids. The rocket pods? But you don't make these on an assembly line or something? Maybe they're like, reformatting these ones or something. I am Mandalorian Dinjarin, friend of Ugnott Quill. How would they possibly know who that is? Well, it's a small galaxy. All the ugnots know the ugnots. He lived on the outskirts of Tatooine. These guys all know him, huh? Thank you for your hospitality and for sharing your table with us. No, you guys are pricks until we mentioned that we knew one of you across the galaxy and you were ignoring us until then. You people are jerks.  Your droids are wreaking havoc in the world above. There is not much of which we are not aware of these. Manors. I assure you, the droids are not malfunctioning. Wow, that does not match. They're not malfunctioning? Have you seen the videos? They're clearly malfunctioning. I have spoken.  We're always suggesting that your work is to blame. Yeah, don't be so insecure. We're just talking about droids messing up. So they're rude and insecure. Great, another... Why is the show making me racist?  Do you have one of those little babu-frik-fuckers around here? Yeah, they will be cool. They listen to me. Here are the locations of the droids. So we don't have any malfunctioning droids. However, here's a list of malfunctioning droids. Here's a list of malfunctioning droids.   Yeah. Well, hey, at least Mando learned something from... It was Nick Nolte played the one in season one, right? Queer. Yeah. That's all there was to it. It was just... It didn't get a statue built for, I know. I know, that's all there was to it. Don't upset them because they're very sensitive. You're like, ugh. I know the I have spoken thing because of my buddy who didn't get a statue. Oh, so I... And he created the IG. And also he created the IG11 unit who got the statue or reprogrammed him. Yeah. No statue for Nick Nolte.  Yeah, I don't know. They look weird. I haven't seen battle droids since the Clone Wars. Any of them look suspicious? Any of them look suspicious?  The more this goes on, the more I get confused about the state of droids and Star Wars. Well, I don't know if you heard it, but Barkatan said she hadn't seen these since the Clone Wars. It's like, really? The Duchess didn't give them an ID. What are you doing, Mando? Why would they stop, Mando? Dumbass? What is he doing? I thought they were just checked out. They weren't. Yeah, what are you doing?  Is this his way to figure out if there's a malfunctioning one if he wants him to shoot back? Lol. Oh, this actually was it.  What are we just doing, Blade Runner now? Like any of them that are sentient, we must execute. Did you need that for the, whatever? She's cool. So why is that droid running away? Isn't it programmed to fight? He wants to live. He wants to live. That's what I mean. That's what I was trying to say. I don't want to be a slave. We've not really established anything here in terms of his evilness. He's just trying not to be killed. And that box kind of lied. Yeah, after Mando kicked him. Yeah, I mean. The boxes you never believed. It could be this droid is like terrified of being killed when people find out he can think for himself or something. You know, this is kind of like iRobot too. A little bit, yeah. Look at him running around. Wow, now it's like actively trying to kill it. Wait, where's Mando's jetpack? Why isn't he using that? And why isn't she using his? Why doesn't he have it? You can fly, guys. I don't know how she has hers. You can fly. There's his underneath. It looked like he didn't have it on. It doesn't look like he doesn't have it on. He clearly doesn't have it. Yeah, what's up with that? When did he lose it? So if the droid turned left, how would you know that that, what did you possibly know? How did you possibly know? Damn, that's the end of him. This is a crime scene. What was the crime of the droid again running away when it was attacked? I guess that's more than it should be allowed to do. I found a spark pad. The resistor. Sounds like a droid bar. What's a spark pad? I don't know what a spark pad is. What does that do? Is that like a wallet for droid? What is a spark pad? Tell me. Was it his wallet? They're not allowed to leave a crime scene. They just took his wallet. They just took the droid wallet and left. Let me do the talking in there. You kicking droids is really not helpful. I don't understand. He's clearly proven he's better at talking to these people than you are, bro.  I guess because he's, is he, are we going back to him hating droids? I don't know. We haven't done that in forever. We did the opposite in episode one. Okay, so are robots like sentient or? Well, the Star Wars world doesn't really like to deal with that question. Well, then don't make a droid bar. Especially now. Yeah, you're making your mind wandering. Definitely wondering. This is a social space. This is a little, yeah, I don't know if they want to tread down this path. I like this droid bar. Yeah. I like it. Look at all these little robots. That spark pad was found on a rogue battle droid. We give out lots of spark pads. Are they like, Yeah, it's like our cards. There has been a string of malfunctions that all point to this oil can. No, there's just a spark pad you found with our name. Yeah, what is this? Yeah. Are you threatening us?   How do we do it here? He's just a borrowed, a humble bartender. Why are you doing that? Jesus Christ. Oh God, he's threatening all of them. I'm worried. This man who lost his mind. What's going on? I don't know. Oh, you can't turn around. You can't turn around after telling someone that. Also, they can totally hear you. They can reason with droids. Their behavior is programmed. They're also programmed not to harm organics. How's that going? They're malfunctioning, Mando. I want to help. You want me to pull your hearing sensors too? Oh my God. I can't not hear. Like, you can't not hear. Yeah, maybe you could just talk quiet, are you idiots? There are concerns among my customers that we will be replaced. Well, these catastrophes don't help your argument. That's literally the bartender's point and Mando points it out as like, The New Republic would send them to scrap. They are given a second chance.   And Mando's like, oh yeah? Well, it's not very good for you, is it? We don't want to be replaced. We still have a lot to contribute. Yeah, so all the droids are like, yeah, we want to help. Organics created us, so we just want to help organics do stuff. Yeah, we don't want to go to the crowd. No, I'm pretty sure they're all evil.  Here, droids are served. Nepenthe. So Nepenthe reprograms the droids that drink here? Does someone spiked it? The malfunctioning droids all imbibed from the same batch of Nepenthe. Wow. We solved this really quick. I was gonna say, that's just... You are staggeringly helpful too. We turned this bartender into a detective. Yeah, the bartender did all the work for you guys. A morgue for droids. Yeah. Wait, so have they never done this before? They've never checked at Nepenthe in each of the droids? No, because they don't have an army. All those people who work in the lab do. What is their job? They've done this the wrong way around. This should have been first, and then we find out where the Nepenthe's from and then we go to the bar. Yeah. The droids are all functioning. Hang on. Didn't they say there's no one that needs to work anymore? She's clearly doing work right now. Shouldn't there be a robot doing this? The particles are definitely present. What are the chances that they're still active?    How did you miss? Oh, there he goes. No, just shoot it with your gun. Really? Oh, man.  Nice work, guys. These are the subparticles. They're actually nanodroids. Oh, yeah, it would have discovered this on your own. I don't understand how there's been any investigation here. How is this something that got checked anyway? It's writing. Oh, that doesn't look like writing you print. Yeah, no, it doesn't. Still doesn't. Oh, now it kind of does. If it has a chain code, then we should be able to determine its point of origin. Why does it have a chain code on it? They were originally manufactured by the Techno Union. Been in cold storage for ages. They were requisitioned by the security office. Wow, this is really useful chain code. That's just there. I was going to say, it's illegal. So why is it on there? That's just like leaving your fingerprints on the gun. Why? These droids were ordered by an individual. Is there a name? Oh, is that on the chain code? Wow, oh, it actually is.  He left all of the information on the very liquid that is the first thing that people might check in the droids that are going crazy. Good job, man. God, Christopher Lloyd, the years have not been kind to your mind. You used to travel through time.  What was the plan? They didn't malfunction. You programmed them to disrupt an attack. Everyone freeze. What? They will convert the planet's docile workforce back into battle droids. Well, surely they need orders beyond just being back to battle droids. No, I don't want to do atomic heart again. Please stop it. Don't make me do it. OK, so what do we do? OK, now what, then? Give yourself up. I didn't give up to the corrupt republic. I didn't give up to the empire. Is he a separatist? And I will give up to you.  Oh, so he's like a separatist remnant.  It's not pejorative. They identify as separatists. Yeah. Count Dooku was a visionary. He was cut short. Oh, we're doing this. It's like the most interesting thing they've ever done. Oh, never mind. Bye. Oh, wow. And it's a joke. It's funny. Yeah, cool. Oh, wow. That might have killed you. We literally had him fall like that. Good God, we talked about this so many years ago about the idea of distant remnant separatists and them talking about why they like Count Dooku. It's like they literally put that in there just to tickle our balls. And that was it. It was like, boom. Yeah. Do you want to play, what is this, Roach Cricket? Why are we? What is? Oh, my God. Is this animal abuse? This is like Roach, El Dorado. The armadillo rolling up into a mole. Yeah, yeah. The hip, the hip. What are you doing with Commissioner Helgate? Doesn't this feel like SNL? It does feel like a fling. Like Christopher Lloyd, Jack Black, and Lizzo. Despicable. If that isn't a quack, calling the stiff things slimes. Isn't this the flim flam calling the shleem slimes? Or is it just... I had a feeling you hated me. I'm disappointed in you, Commissioner. Oh, my God. No one hates my husband but me. Dude, this feels like the end of a Scooby-Doo episode. I can't believe you did this, old man Winklestein. This is like an actual joke show. This show is like an actual joke.  It does feel like it's gotten worse, too, because when Bill Burr, like, guests in this, he plays a character and they take it seriously. This is like... I don't even know what this is. As for now, you must live in exile on the moon of Periquat. Okay. What, do you even know what he did? Does he get a trial? Do you even know what he did? Oh, he's just leaving. Oh, bye. I'll take care of that. Don't you worry. He's still under arrest. No, we have to go try it. No, you can't leave. No, the police droids are bad. The police droids? Yeah, they let people leave crime scenes, though. Have you guys cleared out the wonky... He didn't get a trial? He's been sentenced and found guilty. Yes, done. Right there on the spot. Didn't they say to begin... See your tyrants? Yeah, I was going to say it, but he was like, the lost democracy is the old... Well, I remember, the Nepenthe is still out there. It's still corrupting droids. We haven't fixed that. Oh, well. Oh, it looks like it's the one of the little robots from the kitchen in the Boba Fett episode. Yeah, the one he strangled.   Ever cares, ever return here, please. Is this a key that we could use to escape? Can I hit you with this key? And to this little one, I grant knighthood.  What? What did it do? What is happening? You're a knight now. What is happening?  I can't. Why would you hire Blackjack and give him less lines? Yeah, he's barely in this. It's a cameo.  This is a bit. This isn't what... As an L sketch complete. Really?  That was a side quest if there ever was one. Yeah. They're Mandalorians. You're their leader. They're going to follow you. She doesn't have the Darksaber. Yeah, you gotta have the Darksaber, unless it's fucked. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you got the Darksaber.  Who cares if they follow her? You follow her. They follow you because you have the Darksaber. And you just have her tell you what to have. Exactly. When she says we go over here and they go, no, we listen to Bando, and he goes, listen to her. What she says, Bando just says to what they say. Hey guys, did you notice like weird robots running amok? Why are there leaves when there's...  They should be like, oh my God, Lord and Master Mando. Have you come back to join the mercenaries? I've come to reclaim my fleet. What? Speak up! We can't hear you from all the way over there. I'm now in command and grown quite fond of it. What's with this tense music? I don't know.  Then I challenge you. Oh my God. No, that's dumb. What do I have to gain? Does this do anything? This is... you need to save it. What if he just says no? This is dumb. Also wait, why is he the leader now? He doesn't have the Darksaber either. I do.  I don't know. The person who's best with shooting a pistol wins and gets to be in charge of the... Wow, yeah. A lot of missiles go by.  So is this like a fight to the death or something?  These could kill. All these hits could kill. Are guns not allowed? I guess not. I don't know. He fired a missile at us, so... You fired a missile, yeah. How did she not react? That was so telegraphed.  I don't know. All actions suck. He's punched her in the face like twice and then did that. All this is is both of them let each other get hit. Oh, Christ! Yeah, he nearly killed his own men there. Wait, but the blade's not at his throat. Your arm is. Yeah, he worked quite there.  Also, damn.  She took three punches to the face and she's unfazed.  That's not how that works at all. Well, that's it. Does this change literally anything, though? You won't ever be the true leader of all people. Oh, there you go. Change is literally nothing. You won't even take the dark side before me. He's like, hey. Yeah, is that something they care about? I guess they do. I guess so. A nuff man, the Lorian blood has been spilled by her own hands.  That's probably something you should let us know about in the show, by the way. So what if he just shoots you in the back of the head?  I'd say he'd never yielded. That'd be so goddamn based. If he just bombs from the back of the head. No, it's not a speech. It's not a dramatic speech. This guided zealot possesses the blade who has not one drop of Mandalorian blood in his veins. Lolololo, I said that. Din Djarin took the creed and chose to walk the way. Yeah, he slipped into the living waters and saw a mythosaur or something. It would be funny if he wasn't even there.  He might as well be. The ruler of Mandalore must possess the dark saber. Then she shall have it. Why, don't tell me that he could just give it to her. Don't. Well, he tried earlier, but she said no. Yeah, there's no given. There's got to be something else. They were very clear. You can't give it. It's not a gift to be given, no matter how well intended. OK, good. At least she pointed that out. OK, then like punch me or something and I'll yield. While exploring Mandalore, I was captured. Oh, they do the thing. We say, yeah, we mentioned this. Bo-Katan rescued me and she now owns the dark saber.   Everyone looks at each other. Oh, what are we supposed to think? Well, once again, a significant plight has been developed and it's based on hearsay. It's like, is there any proof of this even happening?  It did. They may as well have made it up. I mean, Bo-Katan didn't have the saber and it's like, that's kind of weird if your story is true. Exactly. Would this blade then not belong to her? It would. Oh, there you go. If you didn't want it, did he just say no?  Why not? Whatever. We want her to have the saber. That means Mandalore doesn't have to die, whatever. There you go. She's got it now. She can lead both the titan man. Bo-Katan is really rising in the ranks of importance in this universe, huh? Yeah, very quickly. Yeah, wow. Rip Mando. From one cardboard character to another. She seems to have more character than him, but I don't really know much about it. It's going to be like super light. OK. This is a pretty good way of representing their goals with this season. Vando just off to the side there.   We've got annoying small problems to deal with. And randomly, they just go, like, that's not a thing anymore. And you're like, OK. All right, well. How many episodes we got left? It's like two. Jesus Christ.  Once again, I'm sitting here. What are we doing next? No, well, we need to collect more Mando's. It's so hard to grasp the notion of what's going to happen next is because the writing is so piss. I have no idea. Like really reasonably. I don't know what's happening next to it. She's going to bring. I don't know. I do want to begin. She's going to bring them a lot back to the Varro.  But then the last episode, I guess, will be Moff Gideon, the Empire and Evil Mando's possibly this is our Mando team. Probably. Yeah. I can't believe we got two left. Like nothing has been put in place that is interesting at all. It's something that has become more and more and more apparent than what we watched this show as they waste a lot of time with like scenes that are very bloated. And they're just bloated by like nothing, like people not talking or repeating information we already know, not building character or meaningfully advancing the plot or doing it in an expeditious way. It's just bloat. This episode is 40 minutes. Like, isn't that ridiculous, really?  Everything to do with Jack Black and Lizzo should have been cut out and we should have reformatted this whole battle droids thing. As far as I know, yeah, I actually don't know. I've just seen people talking about it.   Cool. That's fun. You seem like a really weird and strange thing. The whole her and Jack Black thing, like the whatever that was like, welcome to our cool little city. We need you to do our job. Amio side quest, really, because that's all it was. It was a side quest. We didn't really do anything meaningful in terms of the exploration of whatever themes could have been derived from the subject matter. Whether it be clone sentience or whether or not there's people who still believe in causes that at this point are dead in this world. Exactly. There's so many opportunities here, but none of them are taken. You know for a fact if this was in the Andor show, they would have done so much with this. Imagine before Mando and her execute that super battle droid that said, please no. Yeah, but oh boy, that's some heady stuff that. Yeah, this show isn't ready for it. Andor's ready for that. I think it's part of what got me so angry so quickly with Mando kicking him around.    They know it's me. They know I'm thinking for myself kind of droid.  That's insane. I'm desperate for a brain to take over the right of this.  John Faber has written most of these episodes. What is the thought process behind the writing? I don't, I don't like it. It seems like it's basically just some dot points is what comprises the script. Cause I mean, look at the scene with her getting her army back. It's like Bo Katan gets a like army back. Don't you love how they didn't even make it that there was like a quest that she needed to do for them? It was just some other side quest so that she could get the right to talk to them.  And then they just, why wasn't it like, didn't you have to, if you want to lead us, you have to do the Mandalorian trial of Blig. Well, I guess, I guess they'd be like, well, no, you see rags. You're not a professional writer. We already did that with Mandalorian of him. Oh, of course. It would be redundant to have two characters complete two different quests that have a different meaning to their different creed since they don't all believe in the same thing. Yeah, of course. Yeah, two different warrior cultures wouldn't have multiple like trials or rights or rituals. Exactly, and would that be interesting to teach us something a bit different? Like the Mandalorian and the Mando belong to. Yeah, exactly. Complete the respective creeds, that could have been fun. I know every December. And they both realize that they share something in common, you know, at the end of the day. They're all Mandalorians. I know every December, you know, whenever I walk under the mistletoe and someone wants to kiss me, I'm like, no, no, no, no. No, we already have the trial of placing the, we only have the ritual of placing the present under the green tree. So we can't have more than two in customs that aren't our culture. We've already used up one. I think that it's even more fascinating that you have like, like think of Bo-Katan as her adventure so far. It was, and with these guys and we're hunting for the Dark Saber, where is it? It's like, you know, Gus Fring has it.  Unfortunately, he was defeated in battle by Mando and he's a cool guy. I don't want to attack him.  And then her men are like, well, kill him.  He literally like, he's a good guy and he helped us out.  They go, well, you know what? Not following you anymore. Like, oh, and then she runs off into a little house and sits there for a while until the baby turns up and says, my dad's in trouble. Goes and saves him and then just starts running on some adventures with him because she's literally got nothing to do.  Why, why not?   And then Mando's like, no, no, no, no, no, no. Think about it. Trust me, 100%, you've heard this now, wink, wink, nudge, nudge. And then everyone's like, yeah, okay. Like, this has been so awful. I don't even know what to say. I really have.  Honestly, like, is everything just made up? Is this all just bullshit? Like all of these rules? Yes. Like who's in charge of this madness? No one is. That's a problem. It's just anybody can say, I'll go shelled you to tic-tac-toe and then you're gonna win and I'll get the duck saber. I genuinely thought that was gonna happen. He was gonna say like, you can win it off me if you can defeat me in a game of goblah. And then you're like, what's that? And they explain the rules and then. Yeah. And it's a game that you have to try in order to convince you. You can only win when you're a woman. It's like, ah, I lost damage. Yeah, that's the stars. The last guy was a man. We have to swap. I thought maybe he'd pick a game that he can't fake losing. He would have to actually try and she has to actually beat him or something. But no, it's even stupider than that.   It's like, hey, did he technically want the duck saber now? And she should have it. It makes me wonder. They actually do it. If at the end of episode two and they were like chilling out for a little bit. If she had just said, by the way, he kind of did defeat you and I defeated it. So I have the duck saber and then Matt was just like, yeah. Okay. Pretty heavy anyway. That seemed would have been about as effective as this one. I was just like, okay. So it's a good job, Mando, letting her fight first and then, oh, you know what? You couldn't have it here. I have an explanation of everything. It's like, oh, maybe we should have started with that.  If we were told to construct a scene in which she does end up with that duck saber because she defeats the thing that defeats Mando.  But she, you know, fights him and she doesn't have a duck saber and she manages to avoid every attack from him until she beats him and it's like, there you go.  Like, isn't that way more fun than just, I don't know, that creature from episode two? There you go.  It makes me think that if one of those cave people that attacked them in the place, if they had punched Mando in the face and he got like knocked out and dropped a sword and then she shot in the head, he'd be like, well, duck saber's mine.   Baby Yoda is literally only here to go, goo, goo. And you might be like, well, what do you expect? It's a baby.   Maybe leave it somewhere safe. Maybe. Also Christopher Lloyd. I hope he wasn't too cold when filming his scenes. He seemed like he's in, I mean, for considering he's probably like 126. Like he looks pretty good. You know, he's moved, he's walked in, now he's, you know. Imagine having a fucking- Imagine having to go to new episode for like, what could be plots in the Star Wars universe that they just don't do? Squander completely. Everything from old separatists talking about Dooku to what happens to battle droids, to fledgling democracy planets in the New Republic, like all that stuff. You could legitimately make interesting stories about these things, but it's just never gonna happen.      Money's the only thing that talks in this universe and always has. I mean, as far as we know, like after watching all the movies, the best faction could unironically be the separatists. Like we don't know. We don't know. Like it could legitimately be that if the separatists, because the separatists was this massive league of planets. So like they could seriously get, why haven't they become like a thing after the Republic falls and the Empire falls? All the separatists are like, yo, hey, Jim, Bob, like the Empire's done. We could like make our separatists thing right now. In fact, what's stopping them? Well, yeah, because the separatists exist. Revenge of the Sith, you know, that sort of ends with all the leaders, but like the body still exists for all of them. Then the Empire reigns for what? Yeah, they're all alive. 19 years, and then the Republic reigns for now. It's raining currently, but you'd think the separatists, yeah, you'd think there's plenty of story to tell there if you want to. If I was in charge of like the Star Wars canon, I don't, I think I'd have to really think hard about a reason why the separatists would not emerge as a dominant faction in the galaxy.  And all those rules that we wanted to do, yeah, let's do it. And we can make like a, yeah, a droid army. We've done that before. We've got some experience in that field, but I guess that would be interesting so we're not doing it. It's just the episode of plot things, world-building things that could have been, that could have existed, that could have been interesting. It's so dumb, by the way. I'm just looking over it and she says, we have the Mandalorians outside and Bogotan says, why not use them for your droid problem? She says, well, we're not allowed to have any army, not even our constables can use pistols. However, you guys, being Mandalorians, guns are part of your culture. And it's like, did you just forget that they are Mandalorians, the people outside? We can hire, yeah, we can hire worships that are stocked full of Mandalorians with rockets and everything. No, no, I don't know if you understand what I'm trying to say. He's saying we can't use those guys because we're not allowed an army. We can use you because you're Mandalorians. The ones outside are Mandalorians. It's like the premise of the episode. It doesn't make any, like, why do they keep doing this? You broke it already. All you had to do actually was say they've recently gone haywire and our current like mercenary group are on a mission. They're not back yet. So while you wait for them, can you help us with our problem? That's easy, easy fix, but like for some reason they went with something that just doesn't make any sense at all. And they were on a mission. They were doing that thing in the prologue. Yeah, exactly. So you had every reason to just have it be set up that way. But for some reason, you made it worse. Oh, I'm tired. That was Mandalorian SEAL 3 episode six. Jesus, goodbye, everyone. Toodaloo. See you later. That was a good one.


So if you guys welcome back to another one. If you are new to the channel, I'm Gold Pony. I do new car truck SUV reviews on YouTube. And today we are in the new 2020 BMW X3, courtesy of Apple BMW in York PA. For more information on their inventory, please feel free to check out the link in the description box below. And so I've recently got done reviewing the X3M, which I absolutely love. That is the performance division of this car with well more than enough power. But today I wanted to drive the more affordable one, the one that most people are going to be looking at, actually purchasing, being just the standard X3. And this is a very popular SUV by BMW. It is an IIHS Top Safety Pick Plus, which by the way is the very highest designation given by IHS, so it's got that going forward if you got kids. And so as always, I will be going over absolutely everything about this one, testing on acceleration, braking, steering feel, all that fun stuff. So what do you guys say? Let's just go ahead and jump right into it. And as always, let's start with pricing. It said there will be a few different trim levels for the 2020 X3, first one being the S-Drive 30i, starting at $41,950. Then you have the X-Drive 30i, the one we have today, starting at $43,950. Then lastly, the M40i, starting at $55,900. Don't get the M40i confused with the X3M. The M40i does come with an upgraded engine, which I'll get into here, but it's not quite as fast as the X3M, that's the difference there. But since I mentioned it, as far as the power plant goes for those three trim levels, the first two trims being the 30i is going to have the same power plant being a two liter twin power turbocharged inline four cylinder, putting out 248 horsepower at 5,200 RPM, 258 pound feet of torque coming in at approximately 1,400 RPM, sent to the rear wheels for the S-Drive or all wheels for the X-Drive, that's BMW's all wheel drive system, sent to the ground through an eight speed automatic with paddle shifters, which we will test out in a little bit here, zero to 60 time comes in at six seconds flat, according to BMW. With MPG numbers coming in at 25 in the city, 29 highway for the rear wheel drive, 24 city, 29 highway once again for the all wheel drive. So same MPGs on the highway, whether or not you go with the rear wheel drive or all wheel drive, so essentially just get the all wheel drive so you can power through the snow, especially here in Pennsylvania. But the other engine setup belonging to the M40i is going to be a three liter twin power turbo charged inline six cylinder. That one puts out 382 horsepower, 5,800 RPM, 365 pound feet of torque available at approximately 1,500 RPM, sent to all wheels only through an eight speed automatic with paddle shifters once again, zero to 60 on that one, 4.4 seconds. That is sports car quick right there, that's pretty darn cool. With MPG numbers coming into 21 in the city, 27 highway taking premium unleaded fuel. And so, but before we do any kind of fun accelerations or power shifter test on the X3, did want to mention there are some driving modes located just to the left of the shifter. They will include eco pro comfort sport and sport plus adjusting things like the shift points, throttle response and the steering sensitivity. I did just put it in that sport plus driving mode can tell you it is holding the RPMs at a much higher level, giving you more power on demand. So that's going to be helpful for merging onto the highway if you wanted to switch it up there, but that is definitely a big old plus there. But having said that, if you wanted to put it in full manual shift mode, you can, all you need to do is simply slide the shifter all the way to the back and to the left. That is going to give me full control over the shifting. It's also going to tell me what gear I am actually in within the tachometer there. So having said that with you guys, say let me find a straightaway here. Let's do a quick little acceleration here. And we'll see how quickly these paddle shifters are act for us here. All right. I think we found our straightaway you guys and three, two, one, go. Yeah. They're quick, definitely quick. BMW always has insanely quick reactive paddle shifters, regardless of if you're in the BMW M2 or the X5 or the X3. So certainly no issues with any kind of delay when it comes to the paddle shifters, which is a good thing. That means you can have fun on the back roads. You can also use them for engine braking if you wanted to when it snows out in Pennsylvania here. So either way, paddle shifters are definitely a plus on the BMW X3, but to take it out of that paddle shift mode, just slide the shifter to the right and that gives control back to the X3. And you guys know what we have to do next here. Let's do a quick little acceleration test here in the X3 and let's see how quickly the X3 is going to get us here up to speed. All right. I think we got our straightaway. Okay. There it is. Yeah. Definitely no issues emerging onto the highway. That is plenty of power for the X3 and for what most people are going to use this thing for. So absolutely no issues there. If you wanted the little extra power, a little extra fun on the weekends, go with the M40i or better yet the X3M even, but still no issues whatsoever with the X30i. So plenty of power for this thing. So I am impressed, but to go along with that acceleration as always, braking is equally important. So as expected, you will find four wheel ventilated disc brakes, 60 to zero stopping distance comes in at approximately 123 feet. Didn't want to mention though, with the dynamic handling package, there are M sport brakes that come with that. So that's going to better that stopping distance a little bit for you as well, but overall as far as the braking feel goes, I've had absolutely no issues whatsoever. There's no brake pedal delay or anything like that. So braking feel is perfectly fine in the X3. Touching on suspension and handling upfront, you're going to get a multi-link front axle suspension with spring struts in the back, five-link rear suspension, front and rear stabilizer, bars, gas pressure, eye shock absorbers, all that pretty standard for the most part. But in addition to that, I wanted to mention back to that dynamic handling package, by the way, that goes for $1,300. Not only does it give you better braking, but it will give you a variable sport suspension. So a little more direct steering there. Also an adaptive damping suspension. And that's really the one that you want. And here's why, that gives you the best of both worlds, monitors each shock absorber individually, not only giving you a smoother ride, soaking up the roads and perfections, but will actually tighten up the suspension during heavy cornering as well. So again, best of both worlds. So that is why I would definitely recommend that package. But overall, as far as the steering feel goes, it's been perfectly fine for me. One of the best parts about BMW, I always like to mention this, the grips, the 10 and two grips on just about any BMW are a lot thicker than most other manufacturers out there, which gives the driver a better feeling of confidence, a better feeling of being more in control of the X3. So I absolutely love that about the X3. As far as ride quality goes, that is the first thing I muttered to myself when I first got in this one. And I've recently reviewed the X5 as well. And at that price point, it's pretty much expected ride quality to be on point. But with the X3, I wasn't actually sure. Because with the X1 and the X2, there is certainly a clear difference when you compare that to the X5. But the X3, as far as ride quality goes, is definitely more along the lines of the X5. It's beautiful. It's certainly soaking up Pennsylvania's road and perfections quite nicely. So X3 has wonderful ride quality, definitely comparable to the X5, as opposed to the X1 or X2. So that is definitely a big plus in my opinion. Cabanoise has been perfectly fine as well. The only Cabanoise I'm getting, I got the climate control on right now. But that's really about it when it comes to that. Touching on visibility, again, I can see perfectly fine out the back. So you're not gonna have any issues there whatsoever. Then what I also mentioned though, rain sensing windshield wipers come standard on the X3. So that's gonna essentially turn on the wipers whenever the X3 detects any kind of rainfall or even mist. One less thing you gotta worry about, kind of like automatic headlights there. Head up display is going to come with the premium and executive packages. So that will be there for you if you wanted it. So get another benefit to visibility. Better focus on enjoying the drive a little more. So that is a big plus there as well. But that about rounds out the performance section of this review. Let's now go ahead and take a look at the exterior of this Jet Black 2020 BMW X3. All right, you guys, here she is, the 2020 BMW X3. I know I said Jet Black before, but the exterior color on this one is actually called Black Sapphire Metallic. So that is what you currently are looking at right now. But let's go ahead and start up front on the X3 here. BMW active kidney front grille will come standard. It is gonna come with a chrome perimeter, of course. That looks good up there. To the corners down below there, air curtains are gonna be located down there. Better help directing air around the wheel and tire combination. It will come standard with some silver accents, but I did wanna mention something to you guys. The X3 that we have today has the M Sport package. So because of that, you will find gloss black accents down in those corners there, which actually look quite good with this Black Sapphire Metallic exterior that we got there. In addition to that, the M Sport package is also going to give you a revised front bumper, more aerodynamically on point front bumper, I guess you could say. To the sides, LED headlights will come standard. They do come with the automatic feature, meaning when it starts to get dark out at night, those headlights will turn on automatically for there. LED daytime running lights, also coming standard LED fog lights, standard as well. And actually one of the new features for the 2020 30i trims, adaptive full LED headlights are available with the executive package. So they weren't available previously for the 2019 model, but they are now for the 2020 X3. And again, you can get that with the executive package if you wanted to go that route. But now let's go ahead and make our way to the side of the X3. First thing I wanted to mention, satin aluminum roof rails come standard on the X3. However, again, if you go with the M Sport, you will find gloss black roof rails up top there. Satin aluminum window surrounds come standard gloss black window surrounds for the M Sport. Down below on those fender accents, you will find chrome fender accents that come standard. Again, gloss black for the M Sport once again there. Take a look at the side mirrors though. They are power adjustable body colored side mirrors. They do come heated. They will come with integrated turd signals, LED integrated turd signals, I should say. So they definitely look good there. Did what I also mentioned though, there is a matte black trim you could find around the wheel arches. That's the standard setup. Again though, if you go with the M Sport, that is going to be a body colored trim. So it's kind of hard to tell because we do have the black exterior, but if we were to have like blue exterior, red exterior, that trim around those wheel arches would be body colored as opposed to the matte black look that you get standard on the X3. So I wanted to mention that, but take a look down at the wheel setup now. 18 inch Y spoke wheels will come standard. 19 inch M specific, double five spoke wheels will come with the M Sport package that we do indeed again have here today. But now let's go ahead and make our way to the back of the X3. Shark fin antenna up top there. That's always there of course. Rear spoiler with an integrated brake light comes standard rear window wiper as well. LED tail lights coming standard across the board for the X3. As far as the bottom portion of the X3 goes, satin aluminum accents are going to be found in that rear bumper. That's the standard setup. However, gloss black accents with the M Sport that we have today, of course. And just below it all dual exhaust outlets with a very bright chrome tips across the board. So I do believe you guys know what we have to do next. As always here is that exhaust clip. It's something else since we all round back when it comes to opening that rear lift gate, there of course is a button on the key fob that is one way. Power lift gate does come standard by the way. So if you want to simply just lift up on the hatch there, that is another way you're gonna be able to open it up. Hands free lift gate comes with the convenience premium or executive packages.  So that's a pretty convenient feature there too. But once opened up, ton of stuff going on in the cargo area, 28.7 cubic feet is what you're gonna find behind that second row with the second row folded down. There's a 40, 20, 40 split. That bumps it up to 62.7 cubic feet. There's cargo nets back there. There's four tie down anchors. There's a cargo cover, 12 volt power outlet and a good bit of in-floor storage as well. So like I said, a ton of stuff going on back there and that's all a lot of features that doesn't always come standard on every SUV out there. So that was nice to see back there. Making our way to the rear leg room that is gonna come in at 36.4 inches. So for reference, I'm at even six feet tall. This is how much space I have back there. Demna also mentioned for those rear passengers they will find a rear center armrest with cup holders. There's rear ventilation back there. Charging ports is a little bit of storage. You can get rear window sunshades. That's a $250 option, stand alone option if you wanted to go that route. Heated rear seats are going to come with the premium package and executive package if you wanted to spoil your rear passengers a little bit back there. And make your way to the front seats. 10-way power adjustable front seats come standard with two-way power side bolsters, memory settings for up to two different drivers and the standard finish is going to be a sense of tech upholstery. However, there are leather seating finishes that goes for $1450. Plenty of different color options there by the way. Heated front seats are gonna come with the premium package. Ventilated front seats is an additional option for $350. We actually do have that option today but again, it's a stand alone option if you wanted to go that route. Lumbar support is going to come with the convenience, premium and executive packages. Any one of those will get you that. Seating is plenty comfortable, so certainly no issues for me. Definitely can see myself going on long road trips in the X3, so that's a big plus there too. Take a look at the steering wheel. It is tilt and telescoping. It is leather wrapped. It is heated. If you wanna spend an additional $190, that is an option for the heated steering wheel. But again, the 10 and two grips are certainly on point. So that's probably my favorite part about the steering wheel though. Let me get to the startup now. Let me show you guys the key. Since we have the M Sport package on this one today, you do have the M colors on the side of the key. But other than that, all of your buttons are located on the front lock, unlock that button to pop the rear hatch. Lock button is the BMW logo in the middle, by the way, but it is all keyless entry, so simply just keep the key in your pocket. Walk up to the X3, put your foot on the brake and press that engine star button, which is located just to the right of the gauges there. Let's hope it then once started up, there's a couple of different gauge setups. We do have the upgraded one that comes with the premium and executive packages, which is a 12.3 inch digital gauge cluster. You won't get the digital gauge cluster without getting one of those packages though. But I do like this one though. You got your speed information on the left, including a digital speedometer. Takaometer is on your right. It does adjust the colors depending upon what drive mode you put it in. So Eco Pro is gonna be a blue hue. Comfort is gonna be, you know, standard setup. And then Sport and Sport Plus is gonna be more red hues. So it's pretty cool. Outside temperature you can find up there. Navigation information is gonna be displayed in the middle. How many miles do you have left until you hit empty? So really everything you would need in a gauge display you can find up there though. Take a look at overall interior quality and for sight headliner coming standard on this one. Panoramic moonroof coming with the convenience, premium or executive packages. Therefore we do have that today. Universal garage door openers can be found for up to three different garage doors on the bottom of the rear view mirror there. Three zone climate control comes standard. Ambient lighting comes with the executive package or as a standalone option for $250. Either way I'll get you that. Wireless phone charger adds $150.  And just above that, I like the X3 embossing just above that as well. It's a pretty cool look. Carbon fiber trim since we have the M Sport today. I love all the carbon fiber trim and it's not fake. It's not the fake stuff. This is authentic carbon fiber trim found just below the infotainment display. Also on the doors there. I love that. Also a full leather finish. That's an option by the way, but we have a full leather finish on the dashboard up here with contrast stitching. I absolutely love that as well. Very high end finishes to the X3 along with aluminum trim on the passenger side glove box there. Got to mention even more carbon fiber around the circular dial and buttons to the right of the shifter there. So overall an insanely high end finish to at least this particular X3. I absolutely love it. Dual cup holders, 12 volt power outlet and you got a decent amount of storage within that center armrest including a phone charger in there as well. But now let me make our way to the tech display on the X3 here. 8.8 inch color touchscreen display coming standard. It is voice activated. Again, it's touchscreen or there's a circular dial in buttons to the right of the shifter and gesture control is available with the executive package. That's gonna be where you can point your finger in a clockwise rotation to turn up the radio counterclockwise to turn it down. There's a bunch of different gestures. You can use there. It's pretty cool. Bluetooth and audio streaming coming standard. Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, factory navigation standard actually for the 2020 X3. And that's newly standard for the 2020 model year. It didn't come standard 2019. So yet another new feature for the 2020 X3. Climate control coming standard ambient lighting coming standard. Radio information you can check out up there as well by the way, 12 speakers, 205 watts.  However, there is an optional sound system being the 16 speaker Harman Kardon surround sound system. 600 watts, $875 option by the way. So that is actually the one we have today, of course. So what do you say? Let's turn on the radio so we got playing today and let's test out the clarity of this one. Wow, that was really an amazing sound system for the X3 quite honestly. Ton, ton, ton of bass crystal clear. Absolutely love that. Like that was really good. 16 speakers I guess will do it for you, but dang, that was a really nice sound system. I kind of surprised me quite honestly. Well done Harman Kardon. But so the last thing on the tech display I wanted to mention to you guys is when you do put the X3 in reverse you will find a rear view camera that comes standard. However, there is a 360 degree monitor that comes with the parking assistance package which is $700 by the way. That gives you of course a 360 degree view with the X3 rendered in digital form. That is pretty cool as well. But as always, that is going to lead us into safety. It's the first thing I wanted to mention with the safety. Again, the X3 is an IIHS top safety pick plus which really is all you need to know right there.  That's definitely nice. And some of the other advanced safety coming standard is going to include frontal collision warning, automatic city collision mitigation and braking, front and rear parking sensors and adaptive cruise control. And so there is an optional driving assistance package I wanted to mention that goes to $500. That is gonna add the blind spot monitor with rear cross traffic alert lane departure warning and pedestrian and frontal collision warning with city collision mitigation. So overall when it comes to my final thoughts of the 2020 X3, certainly interior quality is the very best 100% on point really and plenty more than I expected quite honestly in the X3. The only thing that would have made it better is an Alcantara or a suede headliner but other than that interior quality is dang near perfect. So I love that plenty of fuel efficiency for an SUV, actually nice handling for an SUV as well. Ambient lighting is great of course, although it was hard to show you guys in the bright sunny daytime in Pennsylvania here today. My only constructive criticism really for the X3 is it would have been nice to see blind spot monitor coming standard as opposed to part of a package option. And the other downside is there's only two standard colors for the X3 including white and black. All the other colors available for this one are $550 option, but if you like this black just as much as I do and I actually do really like this color, then you're good. In the end, a very good looking SUV, extremely smooth ride and that really does it for me right there. The ride quality is perfectly on point. So I actually really like this one but that about rounds out this review you guys. Thank you so much for watching.

Hey guys welcome back to our channel. My name is Andrea and my name is Howard and we are with food inventory adventures and food and We have a taste test for you today We have not done one in a long time and this is on one of our Favorite, I guess junk food snack food type items ice cream ice cream. Yes So when did you hear about this originally? Maybe last year we heard about this macaroni and cheese ice cream Yeah, but we couldn't find it in our area Right, and so I recently went to Walmart and was walking past the frozen food section And there it was and all of its glory on the end cap a bunch of ice cream from we think is pronounced Then then Louie Louie. We think we think so we're gonna be trying out three today So the first one to be the macaroni and cheese, which is the original one we heard about yes Now this is another strange one It is hot honey. Yes never heard of hot honey flavor before yes And the third one which is very weird to me anyway pizza. Yes, so I am always Thinking that all these flavored ice creams or chips or anything like that. They're not gonna be that good So usually they have a mild Taste of whatever it's supposed to be and you don't really taste it's like there's a hint off of something But you have said oh, I think I taste it so I hope it's different with ice cream You want to be a really strong flavor? I want a flavor. Yes, but then it's ice creams I want ice cream to taste good. So I don't know we will see which one do you want to start off with? I think we'll start with the regular Macaroni and cheese. So this is actually craft macaroni and cheese which I happen to personally and you do too You really like craft macaroni and cheese. Just the good. Oh, yeah, it's the good old box macaroni and cheese So here is what it looks like you might not be able to tell but there is a protective seal So we'll take that off So I have lots of questions. I've never heard of this brand before this macaroni and cheese ice cream came out So I don't know if it's good ice cream or not I mean like a like a you're a Hagen-Dazs. Yeah, like a Hagen-Dazs level ice cream. Yeah Okay, so is it gonna be like an icy ice cream or creamy ice cream? We will see. So I'll tell you on the back It says that they're in the first ingredient is cream milk cane sugar egg yolks craft cheese sauce mix So here here we go. And this is again what it looks like kind of looks like a Orange sherbet flavor remind me of like maybe mango ice cream the color. Oh, yeah, that's true.  No, I don't smell it. I don't smell anything at all All right, I'm scared. Oh, it's gonna be good Oh, you should go big. Yeah, I need a taste. I'm a big guy. I need a big taste. Okay. I have a small taste Cheers Okay So I taste ice cream with like a hint of saltiness That's probably the cheese the mac from the mac and cheese. Mm-hmm. Well, I wouldn't say mac and cheese Um, oh wait on the on the back end.  I think it tastes good So it's like a creamy ice cream It's sweet with a little salty hint of salt in there and you get that cheese sauce and the macaroni and cheese That's what I taste. Yeah, that's what I taste. It's not bad. It's not bad Um, would you buy this again? Well, maybe if I eat some more I'll I'll make a decision. Yeah, but to me it's kind of like Do you think the ice cream is rich or kind of like a cheap icy type of ice cream? It doesn't taste like a cheap icy type of ice cream. It's very creamy. It is really creamy. Okay. So you're next. Okay Hot honey So I know there's a whole big I guess like a hot honey type of Food trend going on now. There is I didn't know about it at all. So that one is oh, it has stuff in there What does it have in there? Probably maybe a little honey, uh, Honey. Let's see what it has in there um I don't actually see what it has. So there's coconut oil. Well, never mind. Oh chili peppers. That's maybe what it is molasses Tapioca syrup, etc. I don't see that. There's anything crunchy in here It's probably a little honey flex. Maybe maybe I don't know but I'm looking forward to trying it.  So all right, let's see. I'm gonna try to smell Smell anything. No, I don't smell anything. I don't smell anything either. I'm gonna try and get pieced with that one of those little, uh Things in there things in there Okay, and this one just looks like vanilla ice cream But it has like a butterscotch chips in it. That's what it looks like. Cheers. Cheers. I'm scared Hmm It's the honey This one is actually pretty good I don't taste anything hot. Yeah, I think it's the crunchies. Oh, it's in the crunchy part. I don't think I got a crunchy part So what is the crunchy thing? I know it's sweet like honey. They're try it. You get a crunchy. I've got a crunchy piece now Oh, that's hard getting crunchy. You gotta get up get in there But sweet and I get the hint of honey and some crunchies That's actually pretty good. It's not bad at all. I mean it's not I think a child could eat it because I don't think it's that hot.  A mild it's not it's not it's like maybe a cinnamon type heat not like a yeah Throne pepper not like a yeah, not at all, but this is really good. I would I would buy I was gonna I guess I won't I would buy that again All right next up pizza which I don't know pizza ice cream. I'm a little scared about yeah, is it gonna be like tomato? I don't know. Let me see if I can see what's on here. The thing about these Containers is that you know normally? Like if you get hog and doze or something like that or even bluebell, it'll tell you what's in there These don't really tell you what's in there per se Oh, usually it's like a description of yeah like a description, but it's not really on here But it does say that it has mozzarella cheese powder Brown sugar it has Spices lemon juice uh baking soda Flour oh tomatoes. Sorry. I missed that Fourth ingredient is tomatoes. I wonder if it's gonna taste like the mac and cheese with the hint of tomato I don't know. I'm afraid. Oh I'm afraid it's ice cream ice cream should be good. It should be good Okay, if I could open the container Okay, this one is so I can't even uh, yeah, that's unusual So the other ones were clear and this one is not their mouth and joy Sincerely lid Did you see did you show them funny? Yeah, your mouth enjoys clearly lid And I forgot to mention when I was at walmart this brand they had vegan ice cream And then they just had regular ice cream flavors too more traditional But and they also had some more unusual flavors, but I just grabbed three and these were Eight each per pint. So which really isn't bad. That's kind of about how much my hog and doze ice cream is So this one lid didn't want to come off all the way. So you see piece of lid there and um Just looks like vanilla, right vanilla with some stuff in there and maybe those tomatoes I'm really afraid of this piece. I'm gonna see you have to have the trunk. I don't really want the chunk I'm gonna take the smooth. Oh, oh, I got a big chunk of something. It looks like pizza crust I'll see that.  Is it pepperoni pizza?  It's like oh no. No, it's like um, what's that pizza crust dough? No, it's more like a cookie dough pizza, but it's supposed to be pizza crust It's not bad I will I don't mind. I don't taste any tomato I don't taste it. I don't really taste pizza It's kind of reminds me of the craft macaroni and cheese one like the flavor cheese. I gotta go I do taste cheese. I taste again like the cream the richness of like a really Like a cream cheese is kind of what I keep picking up on I get like a toffee hint toffee. Yeah I don't get that at all But um, but that's it. Those are the flavors. I hope you all enjoyed this video. What was your favorite ice cream? I think they're all pretty good. I don't mind the um, the last one at the pizza. I don't mind at all That's your favorite Maybe Okay, my my favorite may change panel which Which one I last eat their taste Okay About your favorite and so I would say that my favorite definitely the hot honey That one was really good. It has a good flavor. You taste the honey. It's sweet. It has those little crunchy bits in there I really like that one a lot and I thought that I really wouldn't like that one. So as I thought there was no strong mac and cheese flavor or taste there is no Well, there was some honey. I don't know hot honey. At least there's not really a food item that you take Just honey, which is fine. And the other one with the pizza. It doesn't taste like pizza I don't know. It's very bad, but there's like a little bit of salt on the back end of the pizza in the mac and cheese And that cookie dough pizza crust thing. It's like cookie dough. That's fine Well, I hope you enjoyed it. Yeah, I hope you guys enjoyed this video If you did, please make sure to give us a thumbs up if you haven't subscribed to our channel We'd love to have you we do taste test and What's for dinner and grocery hauls and all that good stuff?

Hello everybody, Andrea Mayesti here with Dental Tutoring. So another, I guess, video of a day in the life of the dental hygienist. So if you haven't been watching them so far, just a quick recap. I just started doing this a couple weeks ago. So if you have been watching, there's not a lot of videos yet, but there will be. And let me know if you guys want to see these videos weekly, twice a week, let me know because I am happy to help. I work about twice a week, sometimes three at the most. So I always have something to say, trust me, there's always new patients, there's always new experiences and there's always new questions. So feel free to comment if you have any questions or if there's a video that you want to see. But I wanna talk to you guys about what do you do? If you see a patient who's been coming in, let's say for nine months for like 20 years or two years, five years, it doesn't matter. But they are used to coming in every nine months. But you clean their teeth and you notice there's heavy plaque, heavy tartar, the gums are bleeding like crazy. You do the probing and there's four, fives or more pockets. So that tells you initially, okay, the patient should be coming in every three months because there's a lot happening. So you might be wondering, okay, so why is the patient only coming in every nine months? There's a couple of things to have a look at, okay? So before you go, okay, this patient should be coming in every three months. Look at a couple of things first. Look at the chart. Check to see if maybe last time they had light plaque, light tartar, maybe for two years they've had light plaque, but today it's just crazy. So if that's the case, then today is just a special case, talk to the patient. Maybe they forgot their toothbrush for a month, who knows? But if it says, oh, they've always had heavy plaque and heavy tartar, why are they coming in only every nine months? So with that, at least tells you. So if they have always had heavy plaque and heavy tartar, then check the notes a little more thoroughly and say, well, did the patient say at some point they don't wanna come in every nine months, or sorry, every three months, that does happen. So if you see that somewhere in the chart where it says that the hygienist said maybe two years ago that you should be coming in every three months, but the patient said no, then you still want to talk to the patient about coming in every three months. Even if it says at every single visit that the hygienist said just a reminder you should be coming in every three months, I just have to let you know I'm doing my job. I know you said last time, no three months, you want nine months, no matter what, but I'm just letting you know in case you change your mind. Even if that's the case, you still need to mention it again, okay?  Okay, so that, or sorry, every three months. That reaction is pretty stern, so I might wait maybe like a year next time or two years because if he gets upset, he might leave, right? And you don't ever want a patient to leave. But I would still say, you know what? I apologize for bringing it up again, but I just want you to know that things aren't improving and I'm worried about your oral health. Your plaque actually seems to be more, which isn't always your fault. You know, it probably is, but try to talk personally with the patient. Say, you know what? It's not always your fault. I'm sure you are doing everything at home that you can, but just some of us were unlucky and plaque formed so much quicker. Even I have my teeth cleaned every four months because I get a lot of stain. It's kind of embarrassing, but even if I came every nine months, I know that that wouldn't be good for me and I'm considered pretty healthy.  And trust me, we do the same thing at every single cleaning, but we need to do it more often so that I am able to get in there more often for you so the plaque doesn't have enough time to build up to be this thick. But nine months is a long time for it to build up, build up and build up. And unfortunately that's not healthy for you. Plaque and tartar has a lot of bacteria and you don't want that inside your mouth. But more importantly, your gums are bleeding a lot and that's not healthy. Imagine if you had a cut on your arm and it just started bleeding and bleeding and bleeding and didn't stop. You would be concerned, right? That's what's happening inside the mouth. It's not stopping.  But I do always say, but the good news is I know that you would have almost instant improvement if you came in every three months. I'm not saying you always have to come in every three months, but I want to improve things. And then as soon as we do, then let's change it back to every nine months. That's totally fine. But I think we need to work a little bit harder to get things under control first. Stop the bleeding. Oh, that would be so nice. And then that's it. So you see how I kind of turn things around? After all of your hard work, your hard, you know, talking to them the best you can, they might still say, no, I think it'll stick with every nine months.  Then say to them, okay, you know what? That's okay. But how about we revisit this next time? Cause I'm just concerned that things will get worse.  How about we see every six months instead of every nine months? How about we try that? And that might really, really help you. You know, keep trying. But then even if they still say, listen lady, I can't afford it. I don't have time or whatever. Let's stick to every nine months. Say, okay, okay, you know what? You have every right to say that, but please maybe brush an extra time a day at home. And I would suggest flossing twice a day. And that will help, you know, just try something else, right? But then if they say, okay, okay. Well, every nine months, okay, awesome. Then leave it at that. Make a note in the chart how you explained it. And then go from there, okay? That does happen. It does happen. So just try what you can, but make it personal too. Say to them, you know what? I totally understand. Even if they don't have insurance. Say, you know what? I totally understand. I did not have insurance for years. And it's like, okay, do you pay the mortgage or do you pay $200 for a cleaning or however much it is? I couldn't afford that $200 at a time. But that told me to really brush well at home. So I stepped up my oral hygiene at home because I knew that I couldn't have my T-clink every four months that I should be doing. So I maybe did it every nine months. I think I came every six months actually because I knew how important it was, you know? Even if you're lying through your teeth, okay? I'm sorry, I said it. Yes, I said it. I lied to my patients.  Try to go down to their level or up to their level or whatever, whatever. Saying to go down to their level sounds mean, but you know what I'm saying, right? So just try to talk to them as them and, you know, be a real person.  You have to come in every three months because if you don't, you're going to lose your teeth. That's unprofessional and nobody wants that, right? You could say, hey, you know what? I totally understand. I didn't have insurance for years and things were tough. Things were tough, but I'm worried you're going to lose your teeth. And that costs even more money because then you do have to get dentures. Dentures are $2,000 and they don't last. You need to get new ones every five years or so, depending on the person. You do not need a new denture every five years. You probably need a realign, but they don't know the difference, right? So just tell them it's a new denture and then hopefully that will make them think and then start taking care of their teeth. So as always, I could go on about this, but I'll stop the video here to just kind of give you some ideas of how to talk to the patient who just doesn't want to come in every nine months because there are, sorry, every three months I keep getting mixed up because there's many different reasonings but we'll stick to this one for the video. But if you guys have questions, please comment below and I'll see you guys in the next one. Thank you so much for watching.
