    Whoa, just curious. Welcome to Just curious media. This is let's talk Cobra Kai. I'm Jason Connell.

    And I'm Sal Rodriguez.

    All right, so we are back for a super short kind of fun preview episode.

    Yeah, preview. We don't. Do we do a lot of previews. lately? We've

    done a few. We've done a few. Okay, we have something coming out that's unorthodox or you're not on it. For instance, we'd like to do a little preview to set the stage.

    Yeah, yeah, there are times do to look this. This was my idea, Jason. And for our listeners, I want everybody to know, it was my idea to bow out sometimes. Because I'm a big believer in the whole too many cooks spoil the kitchen. Yeah, yeah. And I also believe that one person can interview two people, but I don't like two people interviewing one person. So the way that we've been doing our all of our interviews are anytime we have a third party on, it's usually going to be Jason and that was my idea. Jason agreed. And so we're doing it and I think they sound great. I think

    thank you. It is easier logistically, it just is with our not only time difference, it is sometimes someone's available X time and I have the option of recording in a quieter studio during the day. And then you're limited now. We did do it successfully with Jason Curzio. back

    we did that was the one so that's how special that episode is. It was.

    It was fun. And coincidentally that was a superfan episode. Patreon superfan. Well, this preview today is Patreon super fans preview. Because Sal, I went and spoke to three of our Patreon superfans recorded them all. They're gonna go out, boom, boom, boom. And this this is a little bit of a setup for what's coming. Because this was back in June, but it was June 24 2022. And I kind of scheduled a day where it was like back to back to back. It was so fun to finally see them because we were doing video. It didn't go YouTube Live. It was more recording and I can then post it on the channel when when they're ready. And it was great. And I spoke to Adam Alric fantastic. He was first in the chute. Then there was Brian Ramallah, and Lindsey Bebo, who was the first ever Patreon, mind you? Yeah, old school. But they were all so fantastic all in different parts of the country had a great discussion. And just to kind of set the stage in the timeline. It was recorded after you and I did The Next Karate Kid trailer. But before we did the on location episode and The Next Karate Kid, so you'll hear me in the episode, saying, you know, hey, we just dropped that trailer or, you know, we're gonna do this on location episode soon. The next quarter kids soon. So now you kind of understand where that was in space and time and also talked about this upcoming season. So these are going to come out before Season Five launches from Netflix.

    Yeah, there will be times that we record things. But then we have to be particular on how we release them when we release them the order of things we may have to do to just the calendar, release something ahead of something else that maybe we wanted to release after something else. But that's just how things work out.

    Yeah, I found an interview I did the other day. 10 years ago, I just released it not just from this old thing, the show this is analog. How am I gonna do that

    now? And by the way, I think it's really cool that we're having these patrons on the show. Do other shows do that if the show can I get on their show?

    gatewayed to get on the show. I think it's your ticket now and we don't do it because we're asked and we did Jason was the first one. And I thought he was practicing martial arts. I knew he had that gi from the Karate Kid. So it's like, you know, there's a lot of things here to kind of make it special. We've always had Fan Appreciation episodes will probably overdue. And this is a way to kind of do it more up close and personal. And I loved it that day. It was fantastic. I mean, when you get into these conversations, it's really just you're sharing that fandom, you probably have other things in common which I was recognizing if it's not, you know, sports and football other shows movies are kind of similar people similar beings. And it was just a ton of fun and sound. We'll probably do more. There could be some that you do without me and I may even drag you into another three person episode.

    Yeah, I'm not against it. I'm just like, apprehend I guess apprehensive is the word. Yeah. You could just sit there

    just every once a while I'll throw you a bone.

    Well, I remember you. You and Jason Corzine started going off on football. Yeah, I got nothing against football, but I'm sitting there like, oh,

    well, he was a reporter for the athletic he covered the Oklahoma Sooners. So there was a lot of times for that episode. I was like, oh, yeah, we're gonna bring Sal back in Hang on a second. Anyway, so that's what's coming. Super excited. I just wanted to have a little set the stage episode with you as you start coming out before for season five of Cobra Kai,

    and these will be genuine live reacts. I have not heard these. Jason doesn't let me get a sneak preview of anything before releases if we record something and then I hear it when you guys hear it, so I don't have any sneak previews. I look forward to hearing these interviews with Adam, Brian and Lindsey.

    Awesome. Well, I hope everyone else does as well. I know I do. I know they were fantastic. Mainly because of them. They brought so much energy and aliveness and Sal, it's kind of emotional, because they really do sing our praises. And it was like, I didn't have them on to do that. And it really touched me and I know it's gonna touch you to

    it was only recently probably within the last decade, where I was able to accept accolades and praise. Really, it's like it's something you have to be willing and able to receive. And for a long time, I was not able I had to cross this threshold. Now I can. Now I can want it now you want them in other words, I can receive love now.

    There you go. That's good. Well, so why don't you take us out in style as you always do?

    No Mercy
