[Episode theme]This episode is a part of “RM conquers the podcast universe series”, a series by ten Chinese podcasts, each taking one episode from the latest season of Rick and Morty. In this episode, we discussed the 8th episode of Season 5 of “Rick and Morty.” This episode reveals the history between Rick and his dear friend Birdperson. In this “Inception” parody, Rick dives into Birdperson’s memory to rescue his consciousness. We talked about the epitome of the characters, and why we are so underwhelmed by season 5 overall, which is stacked with predictable tropes and a derivative of previous seasons.[Timecode]2:50 Our first reactions 5:34 A summary of episode 87:07 Birdperson vs. Klara in Klara and the Sun9:58 Birdperson as a manifestation of classic heroism20:26 Why is Season 5 underwhelming to long-term RM fans?
