Friends, as fans of Pokemon know, the journeys of Ash and Pikachu will shortly be coming to an end. After about 25 years of following them, the torch is being passed on to Riko and Roy, our new protagonists for the Pokemon Anime. HOWEVER… we all know with new protagonists comes the speculation as to how they’re related to the OLD protagonists, and loyal theorists, I think we’ve got this one figured out. MatPat uses “Settle in and Theorize with me!” and it is HIGHLY EFFECTIVE!

Matpat, you forgot to factor in that Misty easily could have a recessive “blue hair” gene because of one of her sisters has blue hair.
im guessing he didnt count it for the same reason he didnt count any character that didnt have blue eyes. probability

MatPat should change the title of the video from: Who does Ash marry? to "How many angry shippers can I offend in this video?"

yeah me too😢

With how often the art style changes it was pointless.

Even if Ash isn’t revealed to be Riko’s father, I really hope we get to see an older version of him in the new anime, maybe as a gym leader or something.
I think he should get the Red treatment where he’s an elusive master of all things Pokémon. Rarely seen, but known to be off doing wild stuff.
watch him lookin like professor oak and confirming that what we all meme about is the truth
Aye brother
@@Wasattsi And then get beaten by a amateur
Ash Would be like a legendary Character Who Has Big Fandoms And Reach Throughout the Globe in the Next season..
I love how we went from who ash married to emotional story about who can rise to greatness
The intro hits so much harder after he quit
I sure hope ash will be like Matthew, not at the forefront but not absent or unimportant either.
Ash: Sends a million postcards to win a hat
Also Ash: Changes his hat every season
I mean, it’s a rare collectible probably, so you gotta keep it safe to keep the value.
Man sens a million postcard to receive a million hats
He sends another million for every hat.
@@gallantblade1825 yet that one special episdoe he decide to give away that hat to a mankey, an the fact he got another from his father
did his father send another trillion postcard?
@@gallantblade1825 And yet it gets ruined by Pikachu's thundershock every other episode.
I would be ok to see Ash return as the "mysterious old man" giving advice to Riko throughout the series
Woah, never thought of it i would be ok too
Mysterious like red
if even red don’t come back then ash ain’t coming back lol
joking aside i heard they have a new show starring ash tho haha
that goodbye was short
Ash is a type of tree. Why not make him one of the professors?
he'll be Mr Goodshow
Aksim the latest Pokemon sneak peek says that Riko's mom and dad both attended Indigo Academy, but Ash is never seen attending school, so that almost completely disproves the Riko being Ash's daughter theory.
Not to mention, the pendant has something to do with terapagos or is terapagos, so it ain’t a thunderstone
Fun fact: Ash is actually not the father of Loki (the girl) it is a random guy and girl together and you know. This is from a person that is watching the new Pokémon anime aka me.
In my wildest hopes, I’d love for Riko to be the (adopted) child of Jesse and James. It would be cool to see the protagonist of the new series as the child of the main antagonists of the old.
So like piccolo from dragon ball z
I always assumed James was gay.
@@justinbayless8284 lol Him and Jesse actually got Married in "The Electric Tales of Pikachu" in the Last Scene It showed a Picture of Jesse Pregnant and James behind Her and I think I saw Meowth there too
Edit: Also I remembered the Wholesome Part where James goes to Ash's House and gave an Invitation Letter to Him and Jesse wedding which He gave to Ash's Mom cause Ash wasn't home
Why does the child need to be adopted?
@@huiandy1562It's over. The waffle house never happened.
Matpat: Check out this super complicated genetics science to establish the new main character's maternity.
Also Matpat: Groodon
Exactly!
Dont forget "Lira"
Im guessing this is intentional.
Key-yoe-ger-E
Both of my parents had brown eyes, but my brother and eye were born with blue eyes. The blue eye gene actually came from my maternal grandfather. I think this concept could also apply to hair color.
@@mr_rockgamer17 ooof.... what colour eyes does the mail man have?
Riko being Ash's daughter could actually work in terms of message, especially since we have Roy. Riko is expected to be a Pokemon master like her father, and struggles with imposter syndrome and feeling like she's stuck on a predetermined path, while Roy has some conflicts with feeling like an underdog compared to Riko's lineage and expectations. Maybe in a twist of events, Riko decides not to attempt to rise to Champion status, and instead supports Roy in his journey. It could be a nice message of "you don't have to be what others want you to be" which feels like a very Pokemon-y moral.
Plot twist: she gets taught by brock to be a Pokémon doctor
@@Nexusspeethand Riko forgetting that one moment where Brock ask her to date with him
0:00-0:38 My reaction to goodbye internet.
That's what I keep saying. As cool as it would be for Riko to be Ash's daughter and as much as my shipping heart would love it - let's be honest - she's likely just a girl who saw Ash's final match against Leon and wanted to become an awesome trainer just like him. She became a fan of his, wearing that hairclip as an homage to his beginnings as a trainer.
My name 🔥
Exactly, she is an homage to Ash, not his daughter. Named as a reference to Ash's VA, hair clip referencing the original hat (that symbol, btw, is stated to be the Pokemon League's official symbol, so it's not even specific to Ash). That's all. Saying she's his daughter also assumes the series will jump decades into the future, given Ash is still only 10 (maybe 11 by the very end) and she has to be at least the same age, so unless Ash becomes a teenage father, she'd be a newborn at the oldest in a decade and thus adventuring in two decades, at the earliest. They would also need to explain why she is in Paldea (Ash has never been there and has no reason to move there).
An homage is not a biological connection.
I think Matt was looking at the wrong father it’s clearly James who she gets her blue hair from
@@Kahadi To be fair, that is 2 decades. Ash could've traveled to every region off screen. Apparently he traveled to 8 regions in under a year, so it is possible that he traveled to Paldea in between him becoming World Champion and having a daughter.
"awesome trainer"
*debatable*
If Riko isn't Ash's daughter, I'd be surprised if Riko isn't *Dawn's* daughter. They look too similar to not be related
Too bad nobody watched Temple of the Sea..It’s too much seawater there.
Riko and Dawn don't really look that similar? Dawn doesn't have bright blue eyes..especially in her newer appearances! Both in Journey and the DP remakes her colors have been changed where her blue hair and blue eyes are much darker and duller..not really blue anymore
@@testerwulf3357 that was only to match with her game counter part and someone on the Netflix team was in charge not The usuall anime writers,
Riko just needs to be the daughter of at least 1 character of the legacy cast.
I'd prefer Ash and/or Dawn, but as long as she is a cousin, niece, grandchild, etc, I'd be down.
Granted, I'm not someone that's kept up with the series since the end of the Diamond & Pearl Generation, but it just feels right to have the story follow the legacy cast descendents.
Riko is daughter of ash and dawn. Theres a scene in hentai where ash impregnate dawn
"Who Does Ash MARRY?"
I haven't seen the video yet, but the answer is simple. All of them.
A harem thing?
This man has watched to much anime
I love the way that game theory doesn’t tell you the answer straight away but they show you the process of getting to that final conclusion.
If Riko is Ash's daughter, it would make more sense for them to keep it a secret until right at the end. Or at least really far into her journey.
yeah! they are gonna make ash pull an ashes dad. they aren’t gonna reveal who he is (until of course they do)
Not a HIMYM please 😭😭😭😂
What if she is goh's daughter cuz goh has black hair AND blue eyes?
@@Beentoheaven_. She's probably just a new character unrelated to anyone.
@@nbHawkeye you could be right..😮
Honestly it would've been hysterical and really fascinating if Latias had somehow won this little mystery. Imagine the Pokemon anime actually delving into the CANON of the fact that Pokemon and humans have gotten together before and likely still do.
did you know that in terms of breeding...
If Latias is the mother, Riko is ALSO a Latias, because Pokemon Egg Groups.
Suddenly, I hear the terrified screams of a million Vaporeons
@@claraphillips7900 that’s y legendarys are in the unidentified egg group they require humans to reproduce
Ayo 💀💀💀💀
Seeing Ash explaining the former story of the Thunderstone to Dawn makes your theory even more plausible somehow.
According to the anime's director, Kunihiko Yuyama, Ash's departure from Pokémon is temporary. Yuyama said that Ash will return in the future. He also stated that Ash will be 10 years old forever, so this theory is a bit far-flung.
Do u have a source for this, I hope its true
"When we proved that Bo Burmann is Dream's father" I love how he casually said that like it was nothing lmao
ruclips.net/video/ikJPUnlUM7I/видео.html Finally it’s here🤠
i never saw that episode so that statement made me audibly gasp
Ikr lmao 💀
I'm sorry but that sentence made me go into a small laughing fit fr
I wouldn't be surprised if the hairclip is just an indication that Ash is an inspirational figure for her. It makes it feel like the baton is being passed without getting into the mess that is protagonist bloodlines.
It's the pokemon league symbol, nothing else
And r 34
@@dasverdesgreen9406 they wouldnt care theyd just adjust the dialouge to be more f-up than it was in the first draft if he was her dad
The Waffle House has found it’s new host
plus its easier to bring back ash if he stays a kid
The intro with MatPat talking to Ash then is us talking to MatPat now
What would be really cool is if that necklace WAS the thunderstone Ash used to have, and it somehow managed to make its way to her after Team Rocket sold it. Like an insane coincidence linking Ash to the new lead.
I genuinely think Riko is just a fan of Ash. Coming from Kanto just like Ash and going on a pokémon journey is a spiritual passing on the torch.
But she is hiding her last name. Which is sus
Passing on the torch-ic
But…this is paldea…
But that's just a theory.. A GAME THEORY
Big fan of Ash, so much so she catches a Pawmi(a Pikachu "clone"). She tries to not evolve it, because Ash never evolved his Pikachu. Something changes and either Pawmi wants to evolve or she has to evolve him, and boom, end of season one.
I feel like Liko’s necklace could easily just be a grass or electric Tera crystal or even literally just jewellery.
@RR Here is the full clip explaining why bots like you suck: [insert video]
I mean its almost exactly that. Same way that these 2 new characters absolutely have nothing to really do with ash. But fun fun fun
@@KCJB22291 at the most they could have watched some of his matches like Max did like his Sinnoh league for a random one
Considering Team Rocket already took and sold that thunder stone he got in season 1 in Gen 4, yeah it’s totally another one
@@joshuapineda8708 Ash actually gets given a second Thunder Stone in the first Eevee episode, along with Brock getting given a Fire Stone to evolve his Vulpix
The necklace is a reference to the new legendary from the indigo disk!
The second part from the hidden treasure dlc from scarlet and violet...
As its if you look close its same shape as the crystal is on top of the turtle!
Is this why MattPat waited until January to announce his moving behind the camera? He knew our Fandom couldn't couldn't handle both losses in the same year.
*For everyone wondering why this new female character has the same pin as his hat*
It represents the Pokémon League which is why ash had the hat he was a fan of them meaning she could easily be a fan too who knows maybe even a fan of Ash
It also looks like a part of an Orbeetle
@@hackr5277 you’re right could be a fan of Orbeetle
exactly lmao what hackr said it literally looks more like an orbeetle eyebrow than the league symbol
Being a fan of Ash would be fine as well. Having even an inkling of a connection to Ash would have been cool and what alot of the fans would want. Actually the idea of Riko having a rival that is Ash’s actual child would be a pretty cool idea too. The child hated being the “champion’s kid” and feels annoyed by his dumb antics but Riko still idolise Ash as a pokemon trainer, trying to convince him/her to maybe giving him a break.
@@leeboonkang2 Possible
Another point to make is that Dawn was the only character, besides Chloe, who actually appeared during Ash's final battle
Well Chloe is going because to take goh’s place for a spot which makes sense you have a point though
That makes sense
What do u mean? They show Every single one of his companions watching his final battle
@@mattiasandersson8693 what do you mean? he said the phrase "actually appeared". the rest of them watched on tv
Yeah, that was disappointing, Serena and Misty at least should have been there.
To be honest, I believe it's just an art style choice for his daughter to make her unique and make her stand out. If there is anyone Ash would be in the future with then it most likely Serena since they did make a promise to meet again.
they kissed, met again later in journeys, serena tied that blue ribbon to her foot in her her performance outfit, a japanese tradition of endgame and when they departed again, they promised to cheer each other up and as ash departed serena kept gazing into the horizon.
This pleases me as an Amourshipper.
I just realized... Wouldn't this be film theory?
The fact that he named the list “maybe mommy’s” makes me happy beyond belief
OMG A BOT REPLY
Oh, that's a fun one to say. Maybemommy!
Me when i learn im adopted:**sees random lady** maybemymommy?
The theory I'm running with is that Riko is a fan of Ash who received her hairclip from him at some sort of fan event or whatever (and maybe the thunderstone) and thus, was inspired to catch up to him. I like this theory because it gives Ash room to be an adult without immediately being like 30 years old which just seems more likely to me.
@@huiandy1562 bros going around saying this on every top comment 💀
Is that a Winged Kuriboh reference?
I second you.
ashs og hat came from a pokemon league expo, so she couldve gotten the hairclip from something like that
@@snail_stuff Riko: Do you have any idea how many postacards I had to send to get thie hairclip?
Champion Ash: Pride
2:34 Impossible! remember meowth and team rocket threw out that stone in that one episode when pikachu was injured and wanted him too evolve when he lost..
''It undermises that core idea thiat this trainner could be anyone it could be you.its scary for you, *its scary for things to change but its also okay*''u sounded so comforting saying that.
I'm still impressed how team rocket was able to keep fighting a 10 year old kid for 25 years now that's dedication
If I had to guess, Ash may end up as a gym leader or regional champion. It will be interesting to see what they do with Ash if they do anything with him
Or a professor considering Ash is a type of tree
I mean, he is the Alolan Champion before he came World Champion.
Why does he need to be a gym leader? And how much would that even make sense? Just because the rival in the first games did it on the gen 2 games, doesn't mean they all have to. And it hardly made sense back then either.
He’s the world champion .
Serina could be the one.
Her thing was loving Ash, she was a simp
even though MatPat is gone, I think it’s safe to say that Liko is not Ash’s and Dawn’s Daughter. We meet Liko’s father in I think ep. 10 and her mother in ep. 11 of Pokémon Horizons.
If you're interested, there is this one artist by the name "TC-96" that just recently made their own OC that would be Ash's great granddaughter. It's just a single page now, and I don't think there'll be much in the future. But I thought it was pretty cool. I think the granddaughter's name is Casey.

Thanks Doofenshmirtz
@Okeyy.. my dad didn't leave me though
You have become what you fear most
Matpat: “Blue hair genes now have to exists in anime.”
Me: “Oh my god I love how she dyed her hair.”
Honestly, you truly never know with anime. One of the Digimon protagonists (Tagiru if anyone's curious) has brown hair with a big patch of red in the middle that you would normally think was dyed, but they showed his mom in one episode and she had the same thing. I'm always surprised when they actually reveal that a character in an anime was dying their hair because I always just assume those whacky colors are natural.
I could see Riko's blue highlights being dyed, but vibrant colored hair in anime is just way too common for it to be chalked up to being dyed(especially considering the fact that the main cast in Pokémon are all like 10).
Whenever weird anime hair colors are mentioned I think about that one Saiki k episode where he changed everyone's genes to fit in lol.
I used to watch the Pokemon Heroes movie over and over again growing up! It was and still is my favorite!
Well this intro in hindsight hurts more now 😢
Love the eye genetics talk. My old science teacher tried to tell me a brown eyed person would never have a blue eyed kid. Even at 14, I saw the stupidity in that - rare is not the same as impossible. My grandparents had brown and blue eyes. Out of their three kids, one did turn out with my grandfather's true blues.
In my family several members have non brown eyes, even my dad has honey colored eyes, and generation skipping genes are common. I have a set of nephews with gray green eyes even though both their parents have brown eyes but one of the grandparents had that trait.
My dad has brown eyes, mum has blue. I have blue.
Stepdad has brown. Both of my half siblings got blue.
E
My father has brown eyes and my mother has green.
I’m the only one in my immediate family to have blue eyes (though even then, I also have central heterochromia so they’re blue and green), though my oldest sister’s eye are a bit odd, they tend to change from blue to green.
I like the message at the end. Scientifically I think its important to remember this is all a matter of probability. Its not impossible to pass on unlikely traits and if riko turns out to be ash's kid after all, her mom could be virtually anyone (probably misty or serena since those two have the biggest amount of romantic contemplation regarding ash, not to mention misty sounds like a choice they would make since she was his first companion and all that.)
I really want it to be Serena but I know that it will be Misty deep down😞
I think May was originally supposed to be the one the company paired with Ash romantically. I may be wrong though but I just remember reading that somewhere though I have no idea
I mean she lives practically next door compared to all the other girls.
@@sh3rbert dam straight 😎🤣
@@OmegaQuinn there was a lot of ship fodder in the first couple seasons between misty and ash, I dont remember advanced as well tho

I'm surprised he didn't talk about the new MC's bio which supports the "Ash is the father theory" Riko comes from the Kanto region and enrolls in the Paldea region's school. She also has a talent for bonding with Pokemon and only the faculty knows who her parents are and she refuses to talk about who her parents are with her peers
Those "leaks" are apparently fake. Might even been the source of the daughter theory.
@Not RickroII 🅥 that's a link to watch a video about cats. Not pokemon related FYI for everyone
It was revealed as false.
where did you find this?
That was a 4chan copypasta, so don't get your hopes up there. The only official info we have is on the TV Tokio website, which just reveals Riko's name and that the story "takes place in the whole Pokémon world", presumably a similar premise to Journeys
Bro there's all ready 14 episode of the brand new Pokemon series of Pokemon horizons
15:05 It feels different hearing that from him when he announced his retirement
The fact that it's 100 percent possible for Latias to be ashs wife is making me die on the inside
Look I'm famous ma
It's one of the top 3 options.
dont forget the compatibilities with vaporeon..
nux is that you?😂
It is part of the LORE
I find it funny that fans are willing to consider Latias just for giving Ash a kiss (it was even implied that it wasn't even Latias, but rather Bianca), over Ash's Bayleef, who also openly kissed Ash before in her debut episode and never stopped being way too affectionate and possessive with him.
Ah yes, a shipping video. Finally, MatPat knows exactly what I like

This all rides on the theory that Riko is his daughter. I want it to be Misty. She has travelled with him the longest and was his companion during the final episodes. That has to mean something.

Yesssssss I love James as a character, if you don't, I don't wanna know you.
Maybe science theory is the 4th channel?
You r forgetting that Ash’s original face (from the Kanto region) is also heart shaped, Misty’s 3 sisters have different colored hair, Lily with pink hair, Daisy with blonde hair, and Violet with blue hair
Wow I should watch this one day when I get to finish all of pokemon. I feel as if I got to say goodbye too just like Matpat leaving and same as I'll have to do with my childhood
I think Riko is a completely new character with no blood relation to any of the existing characters. The creators won't make her Ash's daughter because of the shipping wars. They're trolling us.
I think she's not his daughter because they flatly refused to let him be older than 10 for a quarter century. No way in hell they going to imply he's 30 in their new series for kids with a 12-year-old daughter. They want Ash to be the eternal kid, not having one.
I think they want a fresh start to the series, so having Ash or any established character related to her would have similar problems to Boruto.

Nah, this would only make sense if Ash was still the main character. That argument no longer holds water.
@@revolvingworld2676 That was the point.
I personally thought it would be Serena. I haven’t watched X and Y but I know she is the character that most showed romantic interest in him. It’s even implied that she kisses Ash on the escalator. I think it’s the most wholesome answer. I haven’t finished the video yet but I’m throwing my idea out there
Personally I still think it could be Serena. Of course the theory thing is fun but I’d say that based on narrative Serena is the most option, at least in my opinion. Whether or not we see Ash have a kid, I can see the writers at least establishing a partner for Ash
Also I’d say that the writers don’t fully care about the genetics part of it. Character design is more important.

@@littlekuribohimposte Both valid. Like I said I haven’t fully watch X and Y but I think Serena is a fun character. That and the kiss thing really seals it for me. She wouldn’t be my choice if it weren’t for that. It just makes sense to me
i bet that there will be a meet and greet with ash when hes older, and the hairclip is a gift by ash, as merchandise. And Ash is Rikos hero. I hope they meet
I can’t how ash got around to so many girls, AND THREE OF THEM CAME FROM THE SAME SEASON
MatPat always finds a new theory for Ash even when he's retiring, but will show Riko and Roy probably facing off Ash near the end of their journeys.
SHE’S NOT HIS DAUGHTER OMFG☠️☠️

@@MrQuinnzard jesus christ youre right
@notgonnalie. shiver me timbers
14:32 Ash being described as "derpy" might've been the most accurate one I've ever heard
@Manaj easy spam report
I don't if anyone still read the comments after a year. I remember hearing somewhere that the original anima season was supposed to end with Misty getting pregnant with Ashes child. I can't remember where I heard that or if it is true.
“Maybe-Mommies” killed me
The only reason i want her to be Ash's kid is so that all the parents who grew up watching the anime can send there own kid own a pokemon adventure, i think it would be sweet if they grew up watching Riko's dad the anime and the kid get to watch Riko.
I was thinking this same thing. Pokemon came out when I was seven, and my oldest is now six and is pretty into Pokemon, it would have been a really cool parallel of passing the torch to the next generation.
Boruto's dad, haha.
@@Aerxis I never watched that much Naruto as a kid, but yeah, essentially.
Omg same! ❤️
Ash being the father of Riko have a lot of great story opportunity. For example; since Ash is now considered to be one of the greatest Pokemon trainer ever/Pokemon Master, Riko could be pressured to be as great as her father but struggles coz she doesn't have the same talent as her father does. Then later on, she'll discover that Ash once was an ordinary trainer and not even special but worked hard to be as great as he is now. That could be great lesson to her that hard work can beat natural talent. But I'm fine even if she's just a nobody and doesn't have any relationships with Ash.
That would be a banger but I think they'll try "something new "
@@yoya3748 please. Yes. Lets have them try something new. We dont need another Boruto.
@@RandomGuy159951 Well to be fair -- Boruto is sort of -- kind of a genius.. just really entitled and stubborn at first..
@@DrahcirHere i mean
Of course he is entitled
He is naruto's son
I know i would be if i were,and probably you too
@@DrahcirHere i think he means more on the lines of a protag who's always living in the shadow of their protag parent
Dude you forgot about the white hair gym leader i forgot the name 😅
"no, no it cant be over"-matpat the irony
Loons: "Who does Ash marry?"
Realistic Sense Makers: "How many wives does Ash have in his harem?"
Bro 😂
@@joltseanmain1314 Don't laugh too hard. We've all known Ash was always waaaaaay more of a player than Brock~😏
@@megabolt5898 nah we all know ash loves gary 😂

Matpat never disappoints
Yes
He does sometimes tbh
OMG THIS COMMENT SECTION IS 7/9 BOTS
never disappoints except his new fnaf theories 😂
Don’t get me wrong he makes a lot of garbage Theories but You gotta love him
My mother has amber brown eyes, my father has blue eyes, and I also have blue eyes. I could’ve sworn eye color is far more complex than just dominant alleles.
It could be Lana if you think about it. The mom and dad of Lana had the eyes meaning of course she will have the eyes but like the hair colors it depends which is more stronger.
Funniest thing is the answer to why Riko has blue hair could be because of hair dye since that has been a game option since X and Y so she could just have black hair and decided to dye it to add some style
Is likely the black is also a design idea. To differentiate the outside hair and inside hair. Anime is very famousfor using blue as subsitution as black
would be interesting thematically to have riko as ash’s daughter. imagine being the daughter of the world champion. the shadow you’d live in. trying to live up to your father’s name. making a name for yourself. it would be a cool thematic tie in since she is, in a meta sense, his successor.
@Amogh Sharma and boruto is REAL bad
forever bomboarded by "Oh hey, you're Ash's kid, right?" and "Look! It's Ash and his daughter!"
I haven't heard anybody bring up this theory yet, but what if Ash ends up being the professor to give the two new protagonists their pokemon like Oak did for him? All (or at least most) of the professors in pokemon have tree named, and ash trees are a thing, plus it would be a great way to show the passing of the torch from one protagonist to two more
I feel like episodes on the pokemon anime should be on film theory because it's very different from the games tbh. But this is interesting and I'll watch it later 😆
I personally think that this new protagonist is gonna be ash's daughter but is gonna have a different message for us than ash did. While ash's message was "no matter where you start from, you can be great too" i think riko's message will be "just because your family is great, doesn't mean that you have that same potential"
Even though it would be a great message, it would imply that Riko is dog water at training. They aren't gonna do that.
you really just called riko trash right off the bat huh
@@dragonraptor3435 well no i meant that in a way of riko trying to copy ash's battling style, but finding out it doesn't work for her, so the further we go into the series, the less riko will be like ash.
There will be no relationship to ash
And that was Dawn' lessons so this is perfect
I love Mat's character break at 15:27
It's like he's thinking, "Can't believe I'm doing this."
Amazing theory!
Can’t believe I watch this in my 30s
