The Watch Review

This is my 58th podcast. It is currently ranked number 54. The title of this episode is "'Avengers: Doomsday' Footage, 'Euphoria' S3E2, and 'Margo's Got Money Troubles' Episodes 1-3." It was released April 20th. My biggest worry about this podcast is that there would be some spoilers about Avengers: Doomsday. I am pretty extreme when it comes to trying to avoid spoilers. In the ideal world, I would want to know nothing about the movie going into it. If it is a Marvel movie then I am going to see it so I don't need to see any trailers about it. I don't like watching trailers of movies that I know I am going to see. If one comes on I tune it out. I get annoyed sometimes with spoilers on the episode image shown on the streaming service. No matter how hard I have tried to avoid spoilers, Disney has given me spoilers of characters who will appear in Daredevil: Born Again through their images they show on the streaming service. So I was preparing myself for a new level of spoilage because I wasn't going to be avoiding it this time. I committed to listen to the top 100 podcasts, the newest episode as it came up so I am required to do so. Fortunately, for me all my stress and worry about this turned out to be for no reason and there were no spoilers. They said before Avengers: Doomsday comes out that they are going to rerelease Avengers Endgame with footage that links to Avengers: Doomsday. That does not give away much. I probably would need to know this to watch Avengers Endgame again as I have seen it already. Hopefully, they don't mess anything up. It would be interesting if they put Doctor Doom in it and then Robert Downey Jr. is playing two different characters. I think it will be good. Then they talked about Euphoria. I suppose the only thing that could be better than watching Euphoria is listening to people talk about how they watched Euphoria so I at least got that going for me. One of the hosts criticized the writer for putting commentary in the show about California's zoning laws and how difficult it is to build in California. He says he doesn't agree that all Californians should be worried about it being difficult to build in California. This mindset is super annoying to me. Zoning laws are the number one thing that we can control that can help bring housing prices down. Wherever you go in the country, you have local governments working hard to make sure housing stays expensive as the people who own put restrictions on those who do not. In somewhere like California, local governments consistently put obstacles in the way of building. In Salt Lake County, you have people speaking out against every attempt to put in high density housing in various places. Somewhere like Rigby, Idaho, you have laws requiring at least one acre of land for housing. So from the most urban to the most rural, the government is micromanaging decisions regarding housing that restricts natural decisions people will make with the free market and increases the cost of housing everywhere. Demand cannot keep up with supply when demand keeps being restricted. Then you get this richy rich podcast host talking like he can't even understand why people would want to be able to build houses in California. I did find some of this interesting and some not. Mostly it was just the Marvel stuff which was short. Mostly they were reviewing this boring Euphoria show. I dock this podcast one point for profanity, one point for being a NIMBY, and one point for the uninteresting topic. I give this podcast 2/5.
