Jesse’s car was bouncing because it’s on hydraulics. It was common back in the day for gangsters (and wanna-be gangsters) to do modifications like this to their low rider vehicles. Adding subwoofer speakers to their cars was popular too, like a status symbol or fashion statement. If you watch 90s rap music videos, you can see similar vehicle modifications.

The sub-woofer bit I'm sure came later. Lowrider culture began in the late 40s; the hydraulic system for changing the height of the car quickly with a switch was invented in '59 (raising it back up bc it was illegal to drive a lowrider in California!). The hydraulic system can also make the car bounce, and this is done basically for fun, but the paintjobs on lowriders were more often than not works of art. That's just scratching the surface but it gives you an idea why Jesse's car did that.

I can barely hear the show at all, only you; so I tried watching along with my DVD... Bzzzzz WRONG answer. :( You pause so often and go back that I just had to give up and practically put my ear to my PC. Please can you turn up the show a bit so I can hear it and you? I love you but this one was really hard for me to get thru. Sorry.

Raymond Cruz was BEYOND amazing playing Tuco, I think we all or almost all agree on that. Cruz had a hard time with the role though. Here is just one quote from a 2021 article: "There’s nothing fun about it. It’s a great character, but to try to pull it off is really difficult. It’s really high-energy. It’s relentless. It’s very physical and it wears you out. You get very drained," said Cruz. He also talked about working in the desert on top of the role itself. There might be wind whipping in his face but the director made him keep going. Wow WTF (Caution, possible spoilers but here is the Link:) https://www.thethings.com/breaking-bad-tuco-raymond-cruz-hated-role-behind-the-scenes/

Have you tried using headphones? I wear headphones and have no trouble hearing Sofie and the show.

1. My PC has no headphone jack (1/8" jack). 2. IDK if I can get headphones that work with a USB (I guess they kind of have to make them now right?) or some kind of Bluetooth. I will look into it but Sofie is the only creator I have this issue with. 3. For watch-along vids (GoT for example), I watch Sofie on the PC and the show/movie on my TV - so using headphones won't work with those. But I generally can balance the TV volume to Sofie's and it works well enough. 4. Ding
