Got a lot of fun tonight. First off, we're going to be reading some comments left on all our stuff. You will not believe who got a comment again. It's amazing that it keeps happening. I'm not amazed by it anymore. And then we're going to be doing a tier list of the best characters from the TV show, The Wire. One of the greatest shows of all time, if not the greatest. And we're doing a tier list of all the guys on the guys and gals on the show. It's going to be great. So yeah, it's going to be awesome. Let's get into it. Play the theme song.

All right, we're starting off with some comments. This is gonna be a lot of fun. So, first comment comes off the Arabella del Buso, moving on to Bigger and Better Things, short Reels clip on Instagram. In this video was created on May 8th, 2023, we published this. And today, 40 minutes ago, Irish underscore Rose underscore 2010, they have zero posts, 22 followers and they're following five people. They say, who cares what this thing says? She needs help.

Bern Podkasey (2:55)

Well, why did they go to it? Why did they search through their archives to go look it up?

Liam Reese (3:02)

They searched her name just to hate.

Bern Podkasey (3:05)

It couldn't have been on the front of their algorithm. We got to get her back on, Matt.

Matt Lavelle (3:12)

Right.

Bern Podkasey (3:13)

I think we got to get her back on. She's our most commented upon guest of all time for whatever reason. By a ton.

Matt Lavelle (3:23)

Right. She was.

Honestly, she was-

SPEAKER_4 (3:26)

I thought she was cool shit.

Matt Lavelle (3:28)

She was cool. She was nothing but professional and a pleasure to work with.

I mean, there's nothing like I have nothing bad to say about her, Bella Del Pouceau. I'll tell you, she looks great.

Liam Reese (3:39)

She's like a badass and fights and stuff and is hot.

Matt Lavelle (3:42)

Yeah.

Liam Reese (3:43)

I don't get it.

Bern Podkasey (3:44)

I mean, look at this.

SPEAKER_5 (3:44)

Do you guys see this?

Matt Lavelle (3:46)

Yeah.

This is her thing. She shows up ready to go.

Bern Podkasey (3:52)

Bottom line is, there's a bunch of people on this podcast who actually met her and spoke with her and have nothing but nice things to say about her, and a bunch of people who have never done any of those things who are looking up a three and a half year old clip.

Liam Reese (4:06)

Just to go by what you see on TV and just to decide if you like a person.

Matt Lavelle (4:12)

So everyone lives off that hit piece that they did on 60 Minutes About Her, which I mean, whatever. It was a hit piece. But this clip is 175 weeks old. Just saying, just saying.

Let's keep it moving. We're going to move on to our next comment. A lot of fun. So next comment is coming off. This was a couple of weeks ago. It's the things get heated on the Working Perspectives Podcast. One of the guys gets caught red handed using Google during a high stakes game of 20 questions. So, it's an epic meltdown.

Someone was Googling. Honestly, I don't think it was being caught. I wasn't hiding it.

I was just Googling. But either way, someone had a big old blow up and lost their shit and was fucking butt hurt Bern all over town. So there was a comment left on here by, I don't know if you know this guy. He's got a shit eaten grin. He's name is Mike Gentile. You heard of him, Bern?

SPEAKER_5 (5:25)

Mike Gentile?

Liam Reese (5:27)

I know Mike Gentile. His real last name is Gentile.

Bern Podkasey (5:30)

That's right.

Matt Lavelle (5:31)

He's Italian.

Bern Podkasey (5:32)

Gentile.

SPEAKER_5 (5:33)

It's not Gentile.

SPEAKER_4 (5:34)

He's Italian.

Matt Lavelle (5:35)

He pronounces it Gentile.

Bern Podkasey (5:36)

Gentile.

SPEAKER_4 (5:37)

Oh, he's Gentile.

SPEAKER_6 (5:41)

But yes, it's Gentile.
