120 Timey Wimey #13: Bill & Ted Face the Music

September 13, 2020

Live from Master Closet Studios, you’re listening to the only podcast on the internet recording right after watching the movie and then releasing the episode three weeks later: Noobs and the Whovian

My name is Austin and I’m the Whovian, and these are my sons Corbin, Tripp, and we’re the noobs! 

This is the podcast that introduces a whole new generation to Doctor Who by watching an episode each week and discussing it from the perspective of a dad who’s seen it before, and two sons who haven’t. Except when we don’t, because this week we won’t!

Welcome to episode 120, Timey Wimey #13 – Bill and Ted Face the Music

This is the one where two idiots go to the worst couples therapy ever and end up saving the world with the weirdest band ever.

Did they follow their own rules?

Things they got Wrong

* The older versions of them remember the same things but somehow things turned out differently* Why didn’t Kelly and her mom (and all of mankind!) know more about the song?* What was on the thumb drive that Old Bill gave them? * It seems like there wasn’t really a single song that saved the universe, it was everyone playing together. * Also, Old Ted played a sample of it and they said “Who’s that on guitar?” Was that supposed to be there one second of actual playing they did?

Paradoxes

* The premise of each movie is a bootstrap paradox

Was it good?
