I loved this episode mixing in Dawn of the dead with Night of the living dead and what’s even funnier is that In the song at the end Cartman sings the line 16:11 "In the city of Venice, right by Matt's house, you can chill if you're homeless". Matt Stone owns a home in Venice and his annoyance with the large amount of homeless people in the area was part of the inspiration for this episode. 4:40 once again another ancillary character that no one wouldn’t really miss.

[@madduxnagel6935]

In my opinion, this is the best reactor on KZbin. Because he isn't just watching the show verbatim and cutting some stuff out, he is constantly making all kinds of edits (for both humor and education), he catches on to nearly every reference no matter how seemingly obscure, he's genuinely enjoying himself and having a good time, and he's talking substantively about the material, while also asking engaging questions to the audience. If you're just finding this channel and you like this type of content, you'll love this guy

Train to Busan is one of my favorite zombie movies that a lot of people haven’t seen/aren’t aware of and I highly recommend it. It’s a Korean film so you’ll have to watch with subtitles unless you know Korean, but it’s totally worth it. I think I was turned onto it around 2017 or 2018 and I loved it. IMDB says it’s available on Prime video for free with Prime, if you’ve got that. It’s probably the best zombie movie I’ve seen in the last decade.

[@deadlyd2094]

i would have to agree "train to busan" and "rec" the latter being spanish and also with subtitles are 2 of the best z films imo

[@nknighton70]

That part with the kids getting in that guy's car and then the guy getting hit by a reckless driver is something they do in a lot of zombie movies in order to get a jump scare out of the audience. They lull the audience into thinking the main character is going to be safe because a nice adult takes them in and then he gets killed mid sentence in order to shock you.

[@rabbidjeremy9193]

Based on a true story. In the late 90's the Midwest started sending their homeless to the west coast via free bus tickets and promises about how great the weather and social services were. That has led directly to the current pacific coast homeless craziness.

[@nickmathur5950]

10:40 The cinnamon at the top, and anything fruit-flavored below that. For some reason I’m not big on fruit-flavored Pop-Tarts, at least not the way I was as a kid. I loved them as a kid but don’t really like them now for some reason. The cinnamon ones aren’t bad though, but for me, Chocolate, s’mores, and hot fudge sundae are where it’s at.

[@waterbeauty85]

When the businesses in downtown San Francisco were shut down due to the pandemic, and there was nobody to panhandle of of there, the homeless moved out into the family friendly residential neighborhoods. At its height, there were 4 homeless tent settlements with a half mile radius of my house and additional homeless living in Golden Gate Park. When downtown reopened, a lot of the homeless stayed in the residential neighborhoods because they realized they were less likely to be assaulted there than downtown. Some live and panhandle in the residential neighborhood while others take the bus "to work" downtown during the day and return to the neighborhoods to sleep at night - they're like professional homeless commuters.

[@heinrichze-france4089]

I Remember all those limited edition pop tarts they had for awhile . Those purple ones were too good!

[@Ore0219]

What makes South Park so good is it's precise, yet exaggerated and cynical approach to real world issues and the truth surrounding them. In this episode, Matt and Trey are showcasing the dehumanizing of the homeless and also the city/state/nation leaders who do absolutely nothing to solve the inequality, but instead opt for temporary band-aids that only kinda slow the bleeding. It's like putting a band-aid on a gunshot wound. Cool... you helped the bleeding, but if you don't take out the bullet and deal with the infection... that band-aid means nothing. I love this kind of meta

[@kirswords8587]

When you said I wonder which state has the biggest problem with homelessness, I was like "has to be California." Dude... that number... 🤯

One highlight of the episode for me was Matt's portrayal of Christine. Trey usually takes all the good juicy voice roles for himself. 😂
