I am AJ.
I'm Tara.
Yes.
And this is kind of one of those surprise episodes for Tara, although we did talk about essentially what the show is going to be about.
Yes.
And what is your understanding? I do know.
I do know.
Yeah, I do know that the show is about the urban wars nicknames.
Right.
And that's as much as I know.
urban wars codename.
And we didn't really do it.
But
we got a text message.
I'm not exactly sure who sent me the text message.
So I'm sorry if it's you and I'm not saying your name.
I don't I'm not really sure who sent it to me.
But this person says, how about an episode on urban wars codenames? I vote Galahad gets to keep his name.
Mira is Legs.
That's a good one.
Nadine is Foxy since Fox is Somerset and she's always described as having a foxy face with cat eyes.
Pipes for Detective Carmichael.
Hat or Key is for Santiago.
Hound Dog for Baxter, although I think, isn't that, that's Feeney's name, right? That was Feeney's codename.
have to look it up.
It
was something like that.
I think
it's something about a dog.
And this person says, maybe your magic in-death AI, which I assume you named Bruno, can do better.
It was
Yeah, so we can't do that.
But anyway, so yeah, that's, so I decided that would be a fun episode to do.
The surprise part is how we're going to do it.
And in order to do this, I need to send Tara a link.
Whee!
And I put a bunch of codenames in there.
And what you do is...
So there's instructions here.
Agent instructions are...
Below is a list of traits pulled from field reports.
Check every box that fits yourself, a co-host, a case subject, whoever you're assigning a codename to.
So I feel like everybody that we probably want to assign a codename to, we can assign at least one or two of these traits in every different category.
So there's different categories, leadership and strategy, personality and vibe.
There is humor and quirks, skills and talents, combat and toughness, stealth and mystery, team role and weaknesses and flaws.
Um, it's all right.
You know, I wanted to make sure I narrowed things down and, you know, to make
it fun.
Okay.
So,
um, so yeah, so what I feel like we can do is just, um, pick a character and then go through and fill this out for them and figure out what their code name would be based on the answer.
I
love it.
I love it.
So, um, The code name will probably not be anything that anybody wants, but that's fine.
That's the fun of it.
I mean, you guys can come up with your own code names and like, I guess send it to us.
Yeah.
Well, and the best part is that like, what if it does come up with like the perfect code name? That's fun too.
There's going to be one or two at least that are going to like, Oh my God, that is perfect.
So the names that are in here, there's all kinds of things from like pop culture references to like dog breeds.
I put some dog breeds in there.
And because it's us and because you are you, I put some names of musicals in there.
So you just never know what you're going to get.
i can't wait there's some
names
in those
you know so some cool names
yeah so you know what's up yeah so
this is this is just aj creating another uh essentially another really fun toy for all of us
