    Minute 75 - We Put A Frog In The Throat On A Bagel!
    Feb 18 2026
    Evelyn swallows a wooden frog figurine to jump verses, and Lester is very concerned about the choking hazard. She grabs a SWAT shield mid-fight and suddenly she's spinning it like a pizza sign, blocking seven attackers at once, and finishing in a Matrix-y kung fu pose!We dig into Michelle Yeoh's weapon training—how she carried the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon spear everywhere to make it an extension of her body, then did the same with the pizza sign and SWAT shield for this film. We track how Evelyn's power is growing but also cracking the multiverse: pizza-universe Evelyn pauses mid-spin, confused, sensing the rifts. It's thrilling and concerning at once, like Anakin getting really good at the Force while Obi-Wan nervously watches.We also explore the $11.99 beefy 2X pizza universe (not Little Caesars, despite the Jackie Chan draft), Kynan's traumatic teen years as a dancing pig mascot who got drinks thrown at him, and why those finishing kung fu poses aren't just for show—they're about controlling momentum and chi.

    Minute 74 - We Put OPERA On A Bagel!
    Feb 11 2026
    On this episode, it's not over 'til the verse-jumping lady sings! We follow Evelyn as she verse jumps into a world where she is a blind opera singer. What tragic irony that THIS is the universe where Gong Gong is looking on Evelyn with love and pride...and she can't see it! We also got another "Carmen Coincidence" moment because the lyrics of this opera song could mirror Evelyn's feelings about coming back to her dream of singing after such a long time. This is also the minute where the student surpasses the master—Evelyn jumped to this universe all on her own, without anyone in her ear telling her what weird thing to do or even where to jump! We also found a Reddit thread where Jane Lui AKA Surrija—the actor singing the opera in the film—comments on her favorite version of this song!
