Baum didn’t know that Cobra Commander has a son named Billy Kessler?
Too bad about GI Joe. I thought the Special Missions relaunch was good.
Please don’t say “A girl with a wiener” We don’t even know if she is pre or post-op. Being a transwoman I DO, however agree with you guys that the reveal was WAY too blunt and flat… I really wish she would have given that plot point more time. Coming out is VERY difficult, and emotional… it was WAY too… “eh”.
Thanks for your comment, Melanie! I will spend my entire life apologizing for Matt…Today is no different. 🙂
haha you got it, this was my first listen.. now i need to go back and listen to a bunch more 😛 You guys have a new fan.
