In this bit10 moments
  • 42:06Tim loves Woody Allen movies more than any other director and watched them as a kid acting in New York.
  • 42:34Woody Allen married a girl he cleaned diapers for as an adopted child and raised from infancy—weird but not technically a crime.
  • 43:11The marriage to Soon-Yi could have been a way to cover up if something else was happening before he got caught.
  • 44:03A lot of Woody Allen's movies have addressed his proclivities for young women until he finally put an older woman in the driver's seat when it got too weird.
  • 44:22Tim announces he's dating Finn Wolfhard from Stranger Things and acknowledges people are upset about it.
  • 44:44Confusion about who is fucking whom, with Tim unsure of the specifics of the relationship.
  • 45:15The show survives because it's neither anarcho-communist nor Nazi propaganda, so nobody in power cares enough to target it.
  • 45:27They've done a musical about child trafficking with zero consequences or think pieces written about it.
  • 45:39The show is so irrelevant that it might as well just be recorded in a car and generates no media criticism whatsoever.
  • 45:51Tim claims he was kidding about dating Finn Wolfhard and jokes they're now going to get lawyers involved over his photo being used.
