Complicating matters is the fact that Banshee is riddled by corruption, with an Amish overlord, Kai Proctor (Ulrich Thomsen), brutally building a local empire of drugs, gambling and graft. With the help of a boxer-turned-barkeeper named Sugar Bates (Frankie Faison), Lucas is able to stay on even footing with Kai and his thugs, and even manages to bring a measure of tough justice to Banshee. But eventually, Lucas’ appetite for pulling heists pulls him and Carrie into a dangerous cauldron of duplicity, exacerbated when Mr. Rabbit (Ben Cross), the NY mobster they once ripped off, closes in with vengeance on his mind.

Oh man. Yeah be careful who you meet on the Internet. You know is it crazy that like years ago you would never. It was weird to meet like dating. He was weird to go online dating. You would never. You were told to never take rides with strangers. And now our entire world is like based around like Uber and Lyft and like jumping in the cars with strangers and that's completely ok. And like nobody even knows how to meet each other in person anymore. Everybody is always you know you get a Swipe right swipe left to meet anyone. Things have changed so quickly.
[00:04:56]
Yeah. I mean you're encouraged now to trust strangers like put all your faith and your bodily harm in strangers. It's kind of crazy man.
[00:05:05]
I remember I went to. So I'm here I'm out here in Los Angeles and I remember going to a party and we go to this party and it's kind of like at the base of like the Hollywood Hills it's like a nice house but nothing too insane. And we go to this house and we're like kind of like you know what is this party for like who's is it someone's birthday what is in there. Oh no it's just like new startup app and we're like WHAT THE HELL IS THAT. And they're like oh well it's like here. And they handed me a pen. Like the only party gifts were like a pen with the logo on it.
[00:05:34]
Like you couldn't get some you know at like a trade show and I look at it and I'm like Lyft? What the hell is Lyft? And they go Oh yeah man it's like this app where you can you know you can get rides from people that are already going the way that you're going. And I was like so you get in a car with a stranger you know. Yeah. And I was like this is the dumbest idea ever it'll never work. And then years later I'm the guy who has to sit here and be like I guess I'm not that much of an innovator.
[00:06:04]
You know I'm surprised they actually gave away pens you know because I like an idea for me. If you're going to like a launch like that you'd give away like a service so you would say hey this is the service this is left and you would kind of demonstrate it. You don't I mean because pens I think pens are kind of I mean don't get me wrong I still use pens every day but I just don't
