Speaker 1: You're listening to a MoMA Mia podcast. Mama Maya acknowledges
Speaker 1: the traditional owners of land and waters that this podcast
Speaker 1: is recorded on Hello, and welcome to Cancel the Lazy
Speaker 1: Girls Guide for our celebrity cancelations. I'm Claire Stephens and
Speaker 1: I'm joined by Jesse Stevens.
Speaker 2: You are about to enter the canceled courtroom.
Speaker 1: The defendants are celebrities, the charges are petty, the rulings
Speaker 1: are final, and on today's episode we're talking about Paul Meskal.
Speaker 3: Rome has taken everything from me, but I will have
Speaker 3: my vengeance.
Speaker 1: You're always playing such sad, sad characters, but they're also
Speaker 1: they're quite like set see sad specific genre. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: feel like you're really owning the sexy SA genre.
Speaker 3: I like to manipulate the tears out of people with sexiness.
Speaker 3: Is that a big burden to have on your on
Speaker 3: your shoulders, you know?
Speaker 1: And sexy? Yeah, a big weight to carry.
Speaker 3: No, it's a privilege.
Speaker 2: I love currically thinking I could have a different life
Speaker 2: put it.
Speaker 3: Having a bit of a background and in Gaelic football.
Speaker 4: Hell yeah, yeah, yeah, loves.
Speaker 3: I think the greatest feeling that any human ever ever
Speaker 3: gets to experience and to get to play that. Like
Speaker 3: I'll consciously have to be pulled away from that in
Speaker 3: my career. I know, because I love it.
Speaker 1: He's the start of Gladiator two, which comes out very
Speaker 1: very soon. He's recently been in Australia for the premiere
Speaker 1: and there are many people, including me, who I'm madly
Speaker 1: in love with him. However, he is not without silly,
Speaker 1: ridiculous controversy. Now Live James, who works in our social team.
Speaker 1: Recently we broke her shoulder. Yep, we'll get to it.
Speaker 1: She recently went to the Gladiator Too premiere and she
Speaker 1: interviewed Paul. And I'm a journalist. That's what I am.
Speaker 1: They call me a spotlight journalist. They do bite the
Speaker 1: movie spotlight. Yep, I'm just like that. So what I
Speaker 1: did I sent Live a message. I didn't even approach
Speaker 1: her in person. You just sent a message and said, Hi, Live,
Speaker 1: What up? I said, you break your shoulder? No? I said,
Speaker 1: what's the vibe? So you asked her? You straight up?
Speaker 1: I went no, pussy foot no, And I said you
Speaker 1: met him? Go on? I thumbs up, thumbs down. Give
Speaker 1: it to me, straight, unfiltered vibe on what Paul mescal
Speaker 1: would actually like at the premiere, what'd she say? And
Speaker 1: she doesn't lie? And I've got no reason to light
Speaker 1: at us. And she has a good vibe detector, she
Speaker 1: does and this is what she said. Oh are you
Speaker 1: actually gonna quote hers straight? Yeah? Wow, okay. I spent
Speaker 1: exactly forty two seconds talking to him, and the vibe
Speaker 1: I got was I'm a regular guy who also knows
Speaker 1: I'm the shit, but I'm also cool because I still
Speaker 1: get a bit shy about it. He was so hot
Speaker 1: in person. Yeah I get that sense. Not as tall
Speaker 1: as you'd think, but definitely not short. He asked how
Speaker 1: I was twice because we both asked at the same time,
Speaker 1: and he answered but still asked again in brackets hot,
Speaker 1: that is hot who loved a cheeky smirk and eye contact.
Speaker 1: The eye contact wasn't constant, but when he did, it
Speaker 1: felt like he was actually locked in and really listening.
Speaker 1: And brackets hot, I want to vomit because the first
Speaker 1: word that came to mind was enigma. Ha ha ha
Speaker 1: ha ha. The eye contact was so good I was
Speaker 1: convinced he kind of liked me too, and had to
Speaker 1: look away because he didn't want it to be obvious
Speaker 1: literal insanity, and I said, live live the extent to
Speaker 1: which I understand and all relate. If liv thinks there
Speaker 1: was chemistry, who are any of us to say there
Speaker 1: was that? She was there, Jessy, tell me about the
Speaker 1: broken shoulder. Do you know about the dessicated shoulder? I've
Speaker 1: seen as a video of lib stacking. Okay, but went
Speaker 1: to the Gladiator premiere. Yeah. She interviews her new boyfriend Paul,
Speaker 1: have a great little chat, and then she's like, I've
Speaker 1: got to go and do the intro to just like
Speaker 1: intro it, and I don't know. She falls over and Page
Speaker 1: dislocates her shoulder and up in hospital. She's got a
Speaker 1: sling that would have been so cool if she had
Speaker 1: it when she met Paul, though, because I reckon he'd
Speaker 1: have asked about it because he'd be like, I also
Speaker 1: get injured from being gladiator. Yeah yeah, okay, Well anyway,
Speaker 1: I just thought i'd enter that into the courtroom for
Speaker 1: vibe purposes, I reckon, for clickbait purposes. She should write
Speaker 1: the article Paul Meschal dislocated my shoulder. Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: how a night out with Paul Mescal dislocated my shoulder?
Speaker 1: I had a night with Paul Mescal hospital. You can
Speaker 1: date not lying. She's not lying now, Jesse. Paul Calm
Speaker 1: is it colml Yeah? Colm, Paul Colm Michael Mescal. Where
Speaker 1: about sn Island kill Kenny? I killed Kenny. So he's
Speaker 1: a real Irish Yeah, No, very real Irish. His dad
Speaker 1: was a heat training his mum was a police woman. Okay, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: he's real. He's real man Manuth yeah, man County, killed
Speaker 1: air and his mother was a Garter and his father
Speaker 1: was a school Sorry killed are killed air. His mother's
Speaker 1: name is dear blah so Irish, so that's probably not
Speaker 1: how you pronounce it. So Irish listeners are going to
Speaker 1: be very upset. And I'm sorry I said kill Kenny.
Speaker 1: That's either not a place it's killed. I'm just don't
Speaker 1: need to be Irish now, Jesse. He is six years
Speaker 1: younger than us. When we were in Ireland and we
Speaker 1: stayed in Shrogcock, you know who wouldn't know where Shirtcock
Speaker 1: is because everyone in Ireland. We're like, yeah, we're staying
Speaker 1: in Shucar and they were like, no one's heard, where
Speaker 1: the fuck is your cock? It's in the bloody middle
Speaker 1: of Ireland. We did we stay there because there was
Speaker 1: a nice house fold cheap any wait, anyway, he's not
Speaker 1: a mess set. It's fine. He studied at the Lear
Speaker 1: Academy at Trinity College and he graduated in twenty seventeen,
Speaker 1: and he had an agent before graduation. This is important
Speaker 1: because he did some theater. He got offered like two
Speaker 1: plays at once. He's a real actor. He's an actor,
Speaker 1: and we've always said that we believe that theater are
Speaker 1: real actors, because's got to remember your lie very true.
Speaker 1: He played Jay Gatsby m mmmmm sexy. Oh okay, a remake.
Speaker 1: We need a remake starring Paul Great Great by twenty nineteen,
Speaker 1: So just keep in mind he graduated in twenty seventeen.
Speaker 1: By twenty nineteen, he was cast in Normal People, and
Speaker 1: man met his moment because I needed a little Irish boy,
Speaker 1: a little Irish boy. It was like here, I am
Speaker 1: thick tyes. She says thick. Yes, yeah, we'll get to
Speaker 1: his thick thies. Do you remember his chain? I made
Speaker 1: Luca wear a chain fora a week. It was it
Speaker 1: actually got really icky. But yeah, he didn't look like Paul. No,
Speaker 1: it wasn't the same. Normal People was the mini series
Speaker 1: based on Sally Rooney's best selling novel, and his starred
Speaker 1: opposite Daisy Edgar Jones. It was gone, Oxy Cornell, I've
Speaker 1: got it was so sexy, the chain, he's five. I
Speaker 1: don't remember his figs so much. You will. He was
Speaker 1: absolutely perfect. Normal people were rased in twenty twenty Peak
Speaker 1: Pandemic and he won a BAFT and he was nominated
Speaker 1: for an Emmy. He then had a role in The
Speaker 1: Lost Daughter, which was directed by Maggie Gyllenhorn and starred
Speaker 1: Olivia Coleman. I've had great things. I haven't watched it.
Speaker 1: You go watched that. I don't think so Olivia Coleman.
Speaker 1: She's got like two daughters. And Dakota Johnson's in it.
Speaker 1: Oh wait, now I have watched the does he play?
Speaker 1: He's just the little boy. He's just like the little
Speaker 1: British but he might have any checklin in it. And
Speaker 1: he's like a little man who works their hangs out
Speaker 1: with Olivia Coleman for like a day, but he's just
Speaker 1: kind of remember that there, Yeah, yep. He was lovely
Speaker 1: in that. Then in twenty twenty two, he starred in
Speaker 1: God's Creatures and After Sun I haven't seen either, but
Speaker 1: they have both had excellent reviews and I will be
Speaker 1: watching them in my own color privately. And then he
Speaker 1: starred in All of Us Strangers opposite Andrew Scott aka
Speaker 1: the Hot Priest and Jesse. You've seen the movie, what
Speaker 1: did you think? Very I watched on aer aplane. Mm hmm,
Speaker 1: fucked me up. Oh I didn't make you bad. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like it is so bleak. Oh but hot, Okay,
Speaker 1: it's hot. Is he sexy? Yeah? Because it's him? Did
Speaker 1: you say the other one? Andrew Andrew Scott they're in
Speaker 1: a relationship, so it's hard hot.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And Paul Mescal's really hot. Yeah, and together they're quite
Speaker 1: it's just like a it's just really hot. Have you
Speaker 1: seen all the videos that they did together for the
Speaker 1: promo for that movie. Yeah, they were so cute. They
Speaker 1: were because they were both Irish, like it was a
Speaker 1: whole thing. Yeah, but really moving, like you need to
Speaker 1: say it, it's very very moving, but it's very sad.
Speaker 1: I will I watched him my own time. That's a sign.
Speaker 1: Note he was a very very talented Gaelic football player.
Speaker 1: Of course he was. I can see that and that
Speaker 1: you do need a strong quad and that athleticism is
Speaker 1: probably what helped him secure the role. Ingladiated to because
Speaker 1: when he had a zoom call with Ridley Scott, who
Speaker 1: saw him in normal people, Ridley did ask him about
Speaker 1: the Gaelic football. Now, my structure for today is as follows.
Speaker 1: What happened with Phoebe Bridges yep, running away from dates
Speaker 1: in parks, Chicken shop date memes and Graham Norton and
Speaker 1: giving people the ick Jesse, what happened with Phoebe Bridges?
Speaker 1: I need her contextualized because everyone just talks about Phoebe
Speaker 1: Bridges as if I know whom. Here's the thing that's
Speaker 1: really important, Jesse. I need you to understand this. We
Speaker 1: are not cool enough. She is an indie singer songwriter.
Speaker 1: I've gone through and searched her music. I haven't heard
Speaker 1: any of it. Okay, because his Phoebe Bridge is not
Speaker 1: currently dating Bo Burnham. Yeah, that's what we're gonna get to,
Speaker 1: jest Buck. Phoebe Bridges had a good run. She's had
Speaker 1: a great run. She likes dating the internet's boyfriends. Wow,
Speaker 1: I wish I was her? Yeah, Oh my goodness. She
Speaker 1: was born in ninety four. Mmmm yeah, she's so thirty,
Speaker 1: she's beautiful. Okay cool. So on the twelfth of May
Speaker 1: twenty twenty, indie singer songwriter Phoebe Bridges had just finished
Speaker 1: watching Normal People and, like the rest of us, message
Speaker 1: call on Instagram. No, she posted about it. She tweeted,
Speaker 1: finished watching Normal People and now I'm sad and horny.
Speaker 1: I'll wait. Turns out Paul mescal Is Slash was a
Speaker 1: big Phoebe Bridges fan, so he tweeted back, I'm officially dead,
Speaker 1: and she replied back, no, don't die. You're so talented haha.
Speaker 1: By this point, is I get a room? Yeah? I
Speaker 1: don't like watching other people's for letting. I find it uncomfortable. Yeah.
Speaker 1: On the twenty first of May, so that's nine days later,
Speaker 1: they did an Instagram Live together Weird, where Bridge we
Speaker 1: did everyone did weird things. Everyone did weird things because
Speaker 1: we were like, it's a new era and it's like
Speaker 1: we're all yeah, okay. Bridges interviewed Meschool for Wonderland Magazine,
Speaker 1: and I went back and watched some of this and
Speaker 1: actually had to turn it off because I forgot how
Speaker 1: painful Instagram Live is just some feedback for Instagram. I've
Speaker 1: never watched an Instagram line. Sometimes I accidentally no, sometimes
Speaker 1: I accidentally press one. And the worst thing is it,
Speaker 1: because no one watches Instagram lines come up, you get
Speaker 1: a shout out yeah, and people don't just join. You
Speaker 1: just joined. My thumb slipped and now I'm on them live.
Speaker 1: I don't want to watch time and I think this
Speaker 1: is a pyramid score looking for my opinion. I like it.
Speaker 1: It's a briefinget. No, it's bad and genuinely what it is.
Speaker 1: You're watching two people on a zoom. You're watching two people.
Speaker 1: They've got technical issues. The video is just waiting for
Speaker 1: Paul to direct quote, just waiting for Paul to jump on,
Speaker 1: and she's like where is Paul? And I'm like, oh god.
Speaker 1: And then he joins and like he sounds a bit
Speaker 1: not quite right and he's like this is my pop
Speaker 1: plan and it's like, oh god, this is terrible. And
Speaker 1: once I had to join Instagram Live and I just
Speaker 1: kept thinking, I hope no one's but the problem with
Speaker 1: people get notified and you're like, I just went to
Speaker 1: cut off. Don't look at me, don't look at me.
Speaker 1: I've been asked to do this for professional reasons. It's
Speaker 1: like one of the humor lands. No, because there's a delay.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and I don't want to die. But it was
Speaker 1: a bit like watching your first day. At one point,
Speaker 1: Paul told Phoebe, I think it's well documented that I
Speaker 1: love your music, and she said, well that makes me blush. Mmm. Okay,
Speaker 1: so it's like again, get a room. There's a rumor
Speaker 1: they stayed online after the chat and had drinks together,
Speaker 1: but I was like, no, you've got to hang up
Speaker 1: from the yeagram live like and then it's weird, you know,
Speaker 1: when you're like coming to the end of riber zooms
Speaker 1: used to time out, Yeah, are you sending another link? Yeah,
Speaker 1: being like join this? Oh god, I hated zoom drinks anyway.
Speaker 1: A few weeks later, in an interview, Bridges referred to
Speaker 1: Mescal as the cute boy from the show and said
Speaker 1: she got a little pitapatter in my heart when she
Speaker 1: saw he'd followed her on Instagram in July, so she'd
Speaker 1: only done the body to tweet you may in July
Speaker 1: she flies to Ireland to see him, and a little
Speaker 1: Cafe posted about how they'd come in for break. In November,
Speaker 1: he talked about his girlfriend in an interview in December
Speaker 1: twenty twenty, he appeared in the music video for her
Speaker 1: song Stave Your Complex alongside Phoebe waller Bridge. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: I remember that. About a year later, they made their
Speaker 1: Red Carpet debut, and then they were posting cute photos
Speaker 1: together on Instagram. It was very, very clear that they
Speaker 1: were together, and there were rumors that they were engaged
Speaker 1: because at the Met Gala in May twenty twenty two,
Speaker 1: Paul was wearing a ring on his engagement finger and
Speaker 1: people thought maybe she proposed and he said yes, and
Speaker 1: there he just didn't know. It was also awkward because
Speaker 1: there are a few examples of interviews with one of them,
Speaker 1: the journalist writing in the copy for the interview that
Speaker 1: they were engaged. So it wasn't a direct quote oh
Speaker 1: song like Paul, but it was in the context of
Speaker 1: a published interview, So you're like, surely his signed off
Speaker 1: on that, but then it would be amended later and
Speaker 1: so you engage? Are you not engaged? Then in December
Speaker 1: there was controversy the foot Bridges collaborated with Scissor for
Speaker 1: a song Ghost in the Machine. You know I've been
Speaker 1: calling Hazzar anyway, Scissor, Okay, do I know the song.
Speaker 1: I don't think that you know, Okakay, it's not for you, Okay.
Speaker 1: So Phoebe Bridges is with siss does the song with Scissor, okay,
Speaker 1: and she sings about screaming at another person and ending
Speaker 1: up alone in an airport bar or hotel lobby. The
Speaker 1: timeline of how quickly the song came together also appeared
Speaker 1: to kind of further point to the real time nature
Speaker 1: of the breakup, Like she talked about how her and
Speaker 1: Sissor had just collaborated and released this really quickly, all right,
Speaker 1: and so it's like just interesting that you know, you're
Speaker 1: talking about a friend. It feels urgent, feels urgent. Yeah,
Speaker 1: then can I just say, you know, it just pops up.
Speaker 1: It's Matti fucking Elie Matt Healey. He was just at
Speaker 1: the Gladiator premiere or was it the Wicked premiere. I
Speaker 1: don't know, is it one of them. It's probably at
Speaker 1: all of them. But he just turns up and he
Speaker 1: was why is he here? Though he was in Australia, Jesse,
Speaker 1: he was just in a lobby getting selfies with people,
Speaker 1: and it's like, you are a famous person outside your cage. Yeah,
Speaker 1: why are you here? Mate. Okay, did he pop up here? Yes?
Speaker 1: Because the nineteen seventy five front man Matt Heally posted
Speaker 1: a baffling photo on Instagram that showed him and Bridges kissing,
Speaker 1: with Bo Burnham standing behind them with his hands on
Speaker 1: both of their shoulders. I remember this because everyone's like,
Speaker 1: isn't Phoebe Bridges with Paul Mescal And isn't Bo Burnham
Speaker 1: with a woman he had been with for like a
Speaker 1: death a million years? I remember that, And also, Matt Healley,
Speaker 1: are you not with Taylor Fucking Sweat at some point
Speaker 1: you were? It really confused fans. Then Bridges was spotted
Speaker 1: at a show with Burnham in New York. She did
Speaker 1: Chicken Shop date with Amelia de Moldenburg and talked about heartbreak,
Speaker 1: and she continued being seen with Burnham in early twenty
Speaker 1: twenty three, while Mescal avoided any questions about their relationship.
Speaker 1: Then it was clear that Bridges was officially dating Burnham.
Speaker 1: It's funny. There's this video of Keith Urban and Nicole
Speaker 1: Kidman dancing at a concert and in the background you
Speaker 1: can see Bo Burnham and you're like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: it's Bo Burnham, And then you just see he's just
Speaker 1: hooking up with fevere Bridges. You're like wild wild he's
Speaker 1: so tall, he's so tall, how beout that makes Paul
Speaker 1: Meschyl feel insecure. We'll get to his height really yeah? Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: I mean you heard what Live said. He's not that tall,
Speaker 1: but he's not that short. But he's not that tall. Now,
Speaker 1: there are rumors that Meschuol and Bridges secretly got married
Speaker 1: right before they broke up. This is according to the
Speaker 1: dou Nois podcast. Wouldn't we see that in the paperwork?
Speaker 1: I don't know, is that public? Yeah? I thought it was.
Speaker 1: I don't know anyway the podcast unless you get a like,
Speaker 1: what like an annullment or something. Well, on the podcast,
Speaker 1: they said, I can confirm that Paul is telling people
Speaker 1: that him and Phoebe were married in secret. This was
Speaker 1: an anonymous source. Not sure if they were actually married
Speaker 1: or not, but this is what he's saying. Someone I
Speaker 1: know went on a date with him where he told
Speaker 1: her he wasn't over his ex and that a big
Speaker 1: reason was that they were married in secret not long
Speaker 1: before they broke up. Apparently. He also cries a lot
Speaker 1: about Bridges, which you will get to. Okay, because weirdly.
Speaker 1: I had the vague impression that he did something naughty here. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm probably gonna need a few more details, but to
Speaker 1: speak back to them about about Yeah, it doesn't sound
Speaker 1: like he did noughty that we know of yet. Oh well. No.
Speaker 1: One of the rumors was at that met gala where
Speaker 1: he was wearing the ring and people thought that he
Speaker 1: might be engaged to Phoebe Bridges. There was a photo
Speaker 1: taking with Daisy ed Ga Jones and in the background
Speaker 1: there is poor Mescu standing next to Phoebe Bridges but
Speaker 1: staring at Daisy. What do you make of this? Excuse
Speaker 1: me while I look at this. He's very a man
Speaker 1: posing for a photo, which is that he's weirdly smiling
Speaker 1: at the camera. No, you know what he is. He's
Speaker 1: when you're in a situation where people say, hey, I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna take candid photos, don't look at the camera
Speaker 1: because he's looking dead down the camera with a big
Speaker 1: smile on his face. Incredibly awkward and it's not very celebrity.
Speaker 1: It's just I hate it, though, when those things get
Speaker 1: blown out of proportion, because it's like, God, we do
Speaker 1: weird shit. When cameras are about yes, correct, Hello canceled listeners.

Speaker 1: In late December twenty twenty three, a rumor began circulating
Speaker 1: about mescal One that really challenged his beautiful reputation. According
Speaker 1: to entirely unsubstantiated sources and a lot of this we're
Speaker 1: off on TikTok, he has a habit of sleeping with
Speaker 1: women he meets in pubs, and then the following morning
Speaker 1: he asks them to go for a walk with him
Speaker 1: in the park and then he runs away. It's just
Speaker 1: he runs away right right away. Why it's so unnecessary,
Speaker 1: there's no sense. It too it ish, it's so dumb
Speaker 1: because it's like he's too famous to be running in
Speaker 1: the public, he's too famous to be darting from someone
Speaker 1: else's and even the running right like, I've had a
Speaker 1: one night stanwn. I'm in the park, I'm walking alongside them,
Speaker 1: and let's say I don't want to be there anymore.
Speaker 1: I could just walk away. I don't reckon they're going
Speaker 1: to chase me. They might go, oh Jesse, and they
Speaker 1: might fall out. And if I just look back and
Speaker 1: give him a look, I think I'm right to just
Speaker 1: kind of be on my way. The reason why running
Speaker 1: away is such a power move is that it says
Speaker 1: I'm worried you're going to chase me, which puts you
Speaker 1: in a position of feeling clinging, and it's like, I'm
Speaker 1: not feeling clinging. I just want to know where you're
Speaker 1: going if we're currently in danger, Because if I was
Speaker 1: with someone and they started bolting in the other direction,
Speaker 1: I go, have I missed a cute?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Is there something for us to be afraid? Is there
Speaker 1: a tyn army that I didn't see coming? Yeah? Yeah, Well,
Speaker 1: clips began circulating on TikTok of these blind items, claiming
Speaker 1: that he developed the habit while living in London. Yeah.
Speaker 1: One of the first to talk about the rumor was
Speaker 1: a woman called Aaron Mary Smith, and she said, Paul
Speaker 1: meschool basically goes around North London and this is from
Speaker 1: lots of lots of them begging women for threesomes. And
Speaker 1: when he does actually get with a girl, he'll say
Speaker 1: to them, hey, want to go for a walk, And
Speaker 1: then in the middle of the chat he would just
Speaker 1: lay and just do a runner and leave her in
Speaker 1: the park. Because even bolting, I don't know a lot
Speaker 1: about running. I'm not a runner. Going from a standstill
Speaker 1: to a speedy sprint, you'd want to stretch. Well, he's oh,
Speaker 1: you're going to pull a handstring. Well. The thing that
Speaker 1: adds credibility to this, he's a river. He does run. Well,
Speaker 1: you know what if you're a runner and you do run,
Speaker 1: you know the importance of stretching and a warm up.
Speaker 1: You don't go from zero to one hundred. We know
Speaker 1: this because Dad does it every six months, pulls a
Speaker 1: hammy yeah, because he goes I'm going to go for
Speaker 1: a run. He puts on his sheer, runners, gets on
Speaker 1: the concrete and just bolts until he feels sick and
Speaker 1: he's hurt himself, and it's like, this is why we
Speaker 1: stretch on me warm ut good point. Aaron mary Smith
Speaker 1: added that Mescal was also maybe hung up over his
Speaker 1: ex singer Phoebe Bridges. Well, if Aaron mary Smith said it,
Speaker 1: because nothing says I'm hung up over my ex fee Bridges,
Speaker 1: Like like bolting away from a girl I asked for
Speaker 1: threesome from and then said, Hey, I might be one
Speaker 1: of the most famous people in the world, but you
Speaker 1: know what I'd like to do? Walk around the park,
Speaker 1: walk around and be papped publicly till a paparazzi's watching,
Speaker 1: then bolt. There's no way he could be bolting away
Speaker 1: from women regularly and not be photographed of video exactly.
Speaker 1: That's the biggest thing that makes me know this isn't
Speaker 1: true is that I'm like a paparazzi would love that.
Speaker 1: Is that Paul meschool with a girl? Oh my god,
Speaker 1: is bolted? That's very what's he running away from here?
Speaker 1: Running away from a bee? Is he scared. What's happened?
Speaker 1: Why is he running so fast? My god, he's running
Speaker 1: away from that girl, that poor girl, and then zooming on.
Speaker 1: Aaron Mary Smith also said on top of this, he
Speaker 1: also liked to violently cry about Phoebe anytime he gets
Speaker 1: a bit pissed or shit faced in the pub. Okay,
Speaker 1: well that's just normal. That's just normal. And you know
Speaker 1: what else it is private. Yeah, but it's like, don't
Speaker 1: mix fact and fiction because that's fat, that's even that's fine. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you've mixed it with a rumor about running running
Speaker 1: away from you one night stand after you've invited them
Speaker 1: to your home and you've said let's go and get
Speaker 1: some eggs, and then running away on because you've the breakfast. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because what she to do? Where do you go? Do
Speaker 1: you stand there for a minute, going will he come back?
Speaker 1: She's just going for a short yog around the park.
Speaker 1: Perhaps he's unwell, he needs a toilet, needs to a vomit.
Speaker 1: The rumors quickly became part of Internet folklore, with multiple
Speaker 1: people jumping on to talk about Paul He's tiny running
Speaker 1: shorts and how he likes to run. He's tiny running shorts.
Speaker 1: By the way, they're apparently Gaelic football shorts. These shorts
Speaker 1: he's photographed wearing in public all the time, and they
Speaker 1: are tiny hot and they're really hot okay, and they've
Speaker 1: got no pockets. So he's also like, mate, it's coldon
Speaker 1: island to have your legs out of it. Oh no,
Speaker 1: because he's in London whereas allso oh, but with these
Speaker 1: little shorts apparently they don't have pockets. And so when
Speaker 1: he has like headphones, he's got a stuff from down
Speaker 1: his pants. Women like that. They say, oh, to be
Speaker 1: his headphones. Ladies, k pet and your pants stop. Can't panting,
Speaker 1: stop it, put your tongue in your mouth, stop it.
Speaker 1: This is why he's running now. School does have a
Speaker 1: history of lying to get out of a bad date.
Speaker 1: In February twenty twenty three, he confessed to lying to
Speaker 1: a girl on a first date so he'd have a
Speaker 1: good excuse to leave. He said, we're walking along some
Speaker 1: lovely canal in Amsterdam and it should have been very romantic,
Speaker 1: but it wasn't. There was a lot of silence and
Speaker 1: the only way for me in my head was to
Speaker 1: fake a phone call and pretend my friend was in hospital.
Speaker 1: I got off the phone, and I thought I'd given
Speaker 1: my greatest performance. The first question she asks me was
Speaker 1: were you acting? Eventually I got her to believe me.
Speaker 1: I doubled down. I was like, why would I joke
Speaker 1: about that? My friend is in hospital. I'm a bad person.
Speaker 1: Sucks to be her hearing that on the TV. Paul
Speaker 1: I went on a date with Oh yeah, I went
Speaker 1: on a date with him. And then it was so sad. Sad.
Speaker 1: Actually he's never spoken about the friend who is in hospital,
Speaker 1: and he tells that story and it's like, I'm ugly,
Speaker 1: I'm fick. Only recently he has addressed the running away
Speaker 1: from women in Parks rumor during a press interview for Gladiator.
Speaker 1: He gave an interview with GQ, and he said, oh
Speaker 1: fucking hell, clearly, where what the rumor was. We were
Speaker 1: looking at the videos and we were pissing ourselves at it.
Speaker 1: Categorically untrue, and we were laughing, laughing, laughing, laughing. He
Speaker 1: says that he saw the rumor during the Christmas holidays
Speaker 1: while hanging out with his siblings, which, by the way,
Speaker 1: if you work in media, these sort of stories always
Speaker 1: go off same time of year. It's at Christmas when
Speaker 1: everybody's trying to avoid their families. So you know what
Speaker 1: else broke at the same time, Ilaria. It was Ilaria
Speaker 1: and her accent and her accent and how she didn't
Speaker 1: know the word for cucumber. Yeah, we love this harmless story,
Speaker 1: like this victimless crid. No one likes this story like
Speaker 1: Paul Mescal likes this story. Really funny, he said. And
Speaker 1: the one thing that upset me was that I was
Speaker 1: in the kitchen. I remember my mum looking at the
Speaker 1: videos and she was getting upset, and she said, isn't
Speaker 1: that devastating. However, he said, it's funny to us, my brother, me,
Speaker 1: my sister, because we know that is the way the
Speaker 1: internet works. It's hilarious. If it was true, it would
Speaker 1: be bad, but as a rumor, it's funny. Then I
Speaker 1: was like, oh, if you're a mother, her impulse is
Speaker 1: to come out and be like he wouldn't do this.
Speaker 1: So basically, poor med School's Moum's upset. The interviewer goes
Speaker 1: on to say that while they laughed about it, it
Speaker 1: was clear that Meschool had an edge of nervousness that
Speaker 1: the topic had come up, and then later on he
Speaker 1: was in a bar lined with bookshelves, and he picked
Speaker 1: up a copy of a book called London's Hidden Walks,
Speaker 1: and he said, three volumes. I should take these from
Speaker 1: my running away dates. So clearly I would. If I
Speaker 1: was por were school, my go to move would be,
Speaker 1: whoever I'm with, pretend I'm doing a little run, just
Speaker 1: like get my arms and just like O paparazzi could
Speaker 1: get that moment. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Every time I
Speaker 1: saw the paparazzi, i'd puller I'm about to run face.
Speaker 1: That would actually be funny. Yeah yeah, Jesse, Chicken Chop
Speaker 1: Date are.
Speaker 4: Romantic person, I would say yes, But it's all like
Speaker 4: I mean, romance is subjective, right, Okay, what's romantic to
Speaker 4: one person isn't romantic to another person? That's true.
Speaker 1: What's romantic to you?
Speaker 3: Apart from this right now? I love walking. A good
Speaker 3: long walk is a romantic simple pleasures, Simple pleasures, some
Speaker 3: simple a man.
Speaker 1: Earlier this year, Paul Mescul appeared on Chicken Shop Date
Speaker 1: along with our other friend of the Council Courtroom, Andrew Garfield. Yes,
Speaker 1: here is my recap of what happened. Firstly, he's wearing
Speaker 1: this open like greeny blue shirt and Amelia acknowledges that
Speaker 1: it is the color of his eyes, and he says
Speaker 1: it's his date shirt. Oh my god, sorry, your eye

Speaker 1: put down where they're getting. What do they ate chicken chips? Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: he's nervous. I mean acknowledges they've built up to the
Speaker 1: moment for quite a while. He says, playing sad and
Speaker 1: sexy characters isn't a burden, it's a privilege. She says,
Speaker 1: I think I've seen all your movies, and he's like
Speaker 1: all my movies And she's like, yeah, you've not done loads. True,
Speaker 1: that's what I thought. You could knock him out in
Speaker 1: a Sunday after she's so good, she asks if Gaelic
Speaker 1: football is how he got his thighs?
Speaker 3: Is out how you got your thighs? Yeah, yeah, that's
Speaker 3: how that's genetics.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, you got family, big thighs, Yeah, big, big
Speaker 1: thigh family. He tells her she's brilliant at her job.
Speaker 1: She's like, this isn't a job, this is a date.
Speaker 1: This is real to me, that's what she says. She
Speaker 1: makes him read a script for her rom com that
Speaker 1: she wrote, so he's like, would you She's like, would
Speaker 1: you do a rom com? And he's like yeah, and
Speaker 1: she's like, well, I've got one. And he's like, you've

Speaker 1: hands it to him and he starts reading and he says, wow, Amelia,
Speaker 1: you look so beautiful today. I've never in my life
Speaker 1: seen someone so gorgeous in a chicken shop. I always
Speaker 1: used to think people who believe didn't love at first
Speaker 1: sight were stupid until now. And then he's like, did
Speaker 1: I get it? And she's like, if you could start
Speaker 1: reading the script now? So good? It's iconic and he
Speaker 1: comes across so well, he's like shy, but it's very natural.
Speaker 1: There's something very natural, likable, charismatic, and I would say
Speaker 1: down to earth about the Irish. Yeah, without ego, without
Speaker 1: ego at all. And he's like, I'm so bad at flirting. Well,
Speaker 1: why am I in love with you? Okay? Why they
Speaker 1: all know each other too? Yeah? Oh, because you've got
Speaker 1: all You've got it Okay, we'll get to it. Jes. Memes.
Speaker 1: This man has been memed so many times. There are
Speaker 1: so many memes that I can't even fit in. I
Speaker 1: follow on Instagram Connell's chain. Well, first it was Gonald's
Speaker 1: Jane Yes in Normal People Meschool played Conall Waldron, and
Speaker 1: someone literally started an Instagram account for Conal's chain. Jesse,
Speaker 1: I want you to describe these photos and read out
Speaker 1: that quiet lately Conall's chain, Yeah, posting as much as
Speaker 1: it once did, more content. I guess there's only so
Speaker 1: many screenshots you can get out of a mini series.

Speaker 1: Marianne's away. We are looking at his chain. Such deep thirst.
Speaker 1: Connall's chain, Alexa play Image and Heat, Hide and Seek.
Speaker 1: It's so sexy. I was gonna read out the other one,
Speaker 1: but there's a better one. Yeah, and Jesse, how about
Speaker 1: this last one? The last one? We are here for
Speaker 1: a full frontal chain. It is a full frontal chain.
Speaker 1: It's the way it sits is that at silver he
Speaker 1: just looks like a real He looks like how we
Speaker 1: imagine the boy that we fell in love with when
Speaker 1: we were eighteen. But then you look back and you're like,
Speaker 1: he didn't look like Paul Meschal, but in our heart
Speaker 1: he did. Yeah. Oh there's something so sexy about him.
Speaker 1: I think my taste right, It's like like, yes, yes, sexy, beautiful,
Speaker 1: all of that. There's something just a little bit rugged
Speaker 1: about Paul Meschal, isn't It's quite boyish? Yeah? I agree.
Speaker 1: Then there's the Hobbit meme. Jess, I haven't heard of
Speaker 1: the Hobbit meme. Okay, can you describe this photo and
Speaker 1: read the caption? Okay, so this is a photo with
Speaker 1: Andrew Scott is in there as well as Paul mescal
Speaker 1: and Jonathan Bailey. And Jonathan Bailey, who's the other one?
Speaker 1: I don't some like Irish or British actor the Hobbits
Speaker 1: after the Shire God Azara. Yeah, what does that mean? Okay?
Speaker 1: It's firstly white. They all look so short, they all
Speaker 1: look really short, and it's saying that they're Hobbits who
Speaker 1: have been to Zara. Wow. Okay, yes, their Hobbits like
Speaker 1: from Lord of the Rings. Yeah, that have been dressed
Speaker 1: at Zara. Yeah, but it's all the Irish ones are
Speaker 1: Irish people short. I don't know, they look as I
Speaker 1: don't think Jamie Dornan is that short, No, Phoebe while
Speaker 1: the bridge is actually quite tall. Yeah, maybe the wall
Speaker 1: Bridge isn't Irish because I've got confused because of Andrew Scott.
Speaker 1: I think that the thing about Irish people is that
Speaker 1: some are tall and some are short. Great observation. Well,
Speaker 1: Paul me School was asked about that particular meme by
Speaker 1: Greg James on Radio one in the UK.
Speaker 2: The Hobbits after the Shai got Azara. I mean, we
Speaker 2: look so unbelievably short, and you're not a short man.
Speaker 2: This photo doesn't do anything to credit that series. I
Speaker 2: think it's because the lenses above. I think that people
Speaker 2: are taking the photo from too high, that someone's up
Speaker 2: a step ladder taking the photo.
Speaker 3: I mean, it doesn't do any of us any favorites,
Speaker 3: but particularly Andrew.
Speaker 1: The other meme that goes around the internet is about
Speaker 1: his Gaelic football shorts. Because I haven't seen them, I
Speaker 1: needed a visual describe this and then I want you
Speaker 1: to read the caption. Okay, oh wow, he does have
Speaker 1: beautiful thighs, does me. They're like rugby league shorts is
Speaker 1: how I describe them. Okay, there's a caption that says, babe,
Speaker 1: wake up new Paul mescal in short shorts just dropped,
Speaker 1: which is so true. It's hot because he has a coffee.
Speaker 1: It's hot because he's got raunos on. He never has
Speaker 1: air pods. He's always got headphones with wires, which I
Speaker 1: can't imagine is particularly conducive to a front. I know,
Speaker 1: I know, right up a bit. Yeah, there's a whole
Speaker 1: thing about the same. Okay, there's a whole thing. And
Speaker 1: he is actually a big advocate for men to wear
Speaker 1: short shorts are good, but I think only some men
Speaker 1: should wear short of shorts. I also think that as
Speaker 1: an Irish man, I am an Irish woman and we've
Speaker 1: just got to be careful with our skins. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: so we can wear the short shorts. Let's reapply, let's
Speaker 1: slipstop sla, Let's make sure that in Australia we don't
Speaker 1: go out between twelve and two. Okay. As an Irish man,
Speaker 1: I think, did you get some bad in Australia? Oh?
Speaker 1: I think he apparently it was in Bonda. It was
Speaker 1: mear me shit. I know, I'm quite sad to have
Speaker 1: missed him, Graham Norton and giving people the ick In October,
Speaker 1: Paul Mescal appeared on The Graham Norton Show alongside Shersha Ronan,
Speaker 1: Eddie Redmain, and Denzel Washington. During the episode, Redmain was
Speaker 1: telling Graham Norton a story about how he was preparing
Speaker 1: for a role and he had to be trained in
Speaker 1: self defense, including how to use a phone as a weapon.
Speaker 4: Some of the things Paul taughtois is how you can
Speaker 4: use how you can use your.
Speaker 2: Phone if someone's attacking you the butt of your who's actually.
Speaker 1: Going to think about that?
Speaker 3: Tho, if someone attacked me, I'm not going to go phone.
Speaker 1: That's a very good point, like girls have to think
Speaker 1: about all the time. Now, this got applause from the
Speaker 1: studio audience, and then a clip of it went absolutely
Speaker 1: viral on social media because the men sort of fell
Speaker 1: silent for a moment. They didn't know how to react. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was kind of like an awkward Well, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Watching the whole thing is very different to watching the clip. Ire. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody was awkward. It was just that
Speaker 1: she kind of said it and then the audience didn't react,
Speaker 1: and then she said it again, and then the audience
Speaker 1: apported like it was fine. Yeah, it was fine. Now, bizarrely,
Speaker 1: people have said it gave them the ick about Paul mescal. So, Jess,
Speaker 1: these are a couple of just little reactions. Two, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna read out these reactions. Okay, we've got Paul Meschal
Speaker 1: is the biggest ick ever, and the Graham Norton interview
Speaker 1: just reinforces it. Also very average looking. Yeah yeah. But
Speaker 1: then weirdly, the next picture she's posted is her and
Speaker 1: her kids waiting to watch Disney on Ice with just
Speaker 1: the post waiting for the show to start. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: it's like, Hm, go and hang out with the kids Disney,
Speaker 1: and I stop dissing Paul Meschal. Yeah, very that After
Speaker 1: watching the Graham Norton interview, seeing Paul Meschal's face gives
Speaker 1: me the ick. I mean, I never was a big
Speaker 1: fan of his anyway, but at least I could tolerate
Speaker 1: his face. Gonna have to mute it. Now with the
Speaker 1: release of Gladiator coming, ah, people love to be like
Speaker 1: I always hated him. Now, Jesse, you have an interesting
Speaker 1: point about why that was a bit of an awkward moment. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that clip pissed me off. Okay, I'm entirely alone I'm
Speaker 1: not spoking to a single person who agrees something go
Speaker 1: on which is always fresh, always refreshing, and everyone on
Speaker 1: the internet round. I'm like, she'll agree with me, and
Speaker 1: then they just all have the same take, and I'm
Speaker 1: like just feeling very alone. That clip pissed me off
Speaker 1: a bit. What sirsh Nan said didn't annoy me. It
Speaker 1: was the reaction of everyone being like, men will never understand.
Speaker 1: And it's like, all of those men, a black man,
Speaker 1: a gay man, are a lot more likely to be
Speaker 1: attacked on a street than she is. And I know
Speaker 1: that women carry the burden of having to protect themselves,
Speaker 1: and that the way that the media like tells those
Speaker 1: stories very very different. I appreciate all of that, and
Speaker 1: the in built fear that women walk away, Yes, but
Speaker 1: it is a myth and it's called i think it's
Speaker 1: called the gender violence paradox. That women walk around full
Speaker 1: of fear, whereas men are more likely to be attacked.
Speaker 1: So if a man and a woman are walking down
Speaker 1: the street at night, a man is far more likely
Speaker 1: to be the victim of crime. He's also obviously a
Speaker 1: lot more likely to be the perpetrator of crime. But
Speaker 1: the idea that it's only women who have to think
Speaker 1: about protecting their safety is actually incorrect, and I think
Speaker 1: that it can be a bit oppressive to always put
Speaker 1: it on women, like, oh, we can't even leave the
Speaker 1: house without our keys between our fingers. It's like, well
Speaker 1: we can. And if men aren't carrying that burden, then
Speaker 1: I think that we've got a disproportionate understanding of how
Speaker 1: in danger we are all the time because of how
Speaker 1: the media blows it out of proportion. Yes, And a
Speaker 1: lot of the commentary around that moment was about like
Speaker 1: how embarrassing for those men, like they'll never understand, and
Speaker 1: people like slowing the clip down and zooming in on
Speaker 1: poor mescal and being like yuck, like he doesn't get it.
Speaker 1: We don't know if he's been the victim. Yeah, of
Speaker 1: And I was speaking. We did a segment on My
Speaker 1: Mirror outloud about it, and I was like, Graham Norton
Speaker 1: in his twenties was stabbed and basically left to bleed
Speaker 1: to death by a stranger. It's almost kill. He was
Speaker 1: almost kill a random attack. Yeah, Like you can't tell
Speaker 1: me that that man's not walking around the world. Yeah,
Speaker 1: probably scared. And so it was just the way that
Speaker 1: people were acting, like saying that it gave them the eck. Like,
Speaker 1: I think that the idea that a phone could be
Speaker 1: is the weabonar. That probably is a bit stupid, I know,
Speaker 1: and it's just unfair to take it out of the
Speaker 1: original context and be like, look, he was laughing at
Speaker 1: how women go through the world, and Sir Sharman and
Speaker 1: Paul Meschal, I like Bessie's They're really good friends. They've
Speaker 1: worked together, and I'm not canceling none of those men, No,
Speaker 1: none of them. I like any Red May Yeah, he's hot,
Speaker 1: he was great and lame is he was. I like
Speaker 1: Denzel Washington. He's hot, he was great in all the movies.
Speaker 1: I like Graham Norton. He's not hot, but he's great
Speaker 1: on the Graham Not Show. He is Jesse. It's time
Speaker 1: for charges and sentences. Okay, my charge. I don't want
Speaker 1: to charge Paul mescal with anything. I think he is
Speaker 1: beautiful and I think, yes, lovely but absolutely great actor,
Speaker 1: excellent ability to select Yep. I may be speaking too early,
Speaker 1: but I think Gladiator two is gone to beg I
Speaker 1: think it will yeah, yeah, loved it. Yeah, So my
Speaker 1: charge leaving me uncertain about what happened with Phoebe. If
Speaker 1: you're going to start a relationship on Twitter, you're gonna
Speaker 1: end it on Twitter. Yeah yeah, Okay, I need to
Speaker 1: know were you engaged, were you married? Did she cheat
Speaker 1: on you with bo? Yeah? Were you checking out Daisy
Speaker 1: at the metca et cetera? As you run away? Did
Speaker 1: you run away? Literally? Yeah or metaphorically either one? So
Speaker 1: my sentence, I say this because it is the least
Speaker 1: irish thing, okay that a person could do. Red Table
Speaker 1: Oh shit, okay him? Is that still on? I don't
Speaker 1: know where is Jada. She released her book. I think
Speaker 1: she was tired from all the revelations because we did
Speaker 1: say in our episode it's one of our most listened
Speaker 1: to episodes that and we said enough revelations enough, you
Speaker 1: can over revelation. Yeah. What we've said is we've under revelation. Yeah, Paul, Yeah,
Speaker 1: so we need a few more, but Jada just kept
Speaker 1: I think there needs to be an Irish version of
Speaker 1: Red Table talk. Yeah, Guinness at the table, you know
Speaker 1: what it is? What we're doing a bit of a confession.
Speaker 1: I was thinking more of pub and we're sinking Guinness.
Speaker 1: We're sinking Guinness until we say some shit. Okay. I
Speaker 1: say this because when Paul Meschool did his chicken shop
Speaker 1: date with Millie Aldenberg, she's like, do you like Guinness?
Speaker 1: And he's like, yeah, I've just started getting into guinness.
Speaker 1: And then she's like, oh cool, I've got one, but
Speaker 1: she had one just for herself, not real. And then
Speaker 1: he was telling her how you've got to sink the
Speaker 1: gen when you do it, you've got to drink down
Speaker 1: to the g thing. When we were in Ireland, a
Speaker 1: lot of people said, yeah, the thing about Guinness a
Speaker 1: lot of time on the toilet the next dome. Yeah,
Speaker 1: a lot of people said, it's the people that we
Speaker 1: were with a lot of Aussies. We weren't drinking guinness
Speaker 1: because I think it tastes like pins. But our friends
Speaker 1: we're going, it's trying to for hours on the toilet.
Speaker 1: Comes out as it goes in. This is interesting culturally,
Speaker 1: not which might be if Paul's had a night out
Speaker 1: on the guinness. He's taking a girl home for a threesome.
Speaker 1: He's walking through the park and he's coming it's coming
Speaker 1: out like it went in person. I've got to go
Speaker 1: to the toilet. Yeah, well, I think pub red table
Speaker 1: talk I reckon potentially hosted by Brian Norton, but anywhere.
Speaker 1: This is who's at the table. But it's not a
Speaker 1: red table. It's like a brown sticky Yeah. It's dark
Speaker 1: at two beer yeah yeah, and the people at the
Speaker 1: table are as follows, Paul, Yeah, Phoebe yeah, bo, Daisy
Speaker 1: shit yes, and maybe a million to a million. She
Speaker 1: can come, Yeah, she can come. She'd be good for
Speaker 1: the vibe, all right. Yeah. So that was also my
Speaker 1: charge was that you can't meet in front of us
Speaker 1: and then not follow up. And I've written loud on,
Speaker 1: loud off, so if we're going to go on really loud,
Speaker 1: then what I'm probably gonna need is for you to
Speaker 1: just as loud announced what's gone wrong. But you had that,
Speaker 1: so I thought, I'm going to do something different, and
Speaker 1: I am going to charge him with dislocating lives. Shoulder
Speaker 1: shit poorly because live went to see Gladiator too, which
Speaker 1: you wouldn't have done if it weren't for Paul. No,
Speaker 1: I was established yep, yep. So it's like a butterfly
Speaker 1: effect moment. She went because Paul was in it. You're
Speaker 1: the drawer card. Yeah, if I go to see you
Speaker 1: in Gladiator too, and I walk away with a dissiccated shoulder.
Speaker 1: Whose fault is it? She should send him her medical bills,
Speaker 1: except that we live in Australia, so the fraid so
Speaker 1: there aren't medical bills. But there was a doctor who
Speaker 1: didn't save a wife that night because that doctor was
Speaker 1: dealing with lives pain. Because actually, there's not a lot
Speaker 1: you can do about dissiccation. It's not my favorite thing
Speaker 1: is when you go to the hospital, they would have said,
Speaker 1: how'd you do it? She would have said, well, I
Speaker 1: was with a premiere. I was trying to do an
Speaker 1: intro to an interview had already done with Paul. He
Speaker 1: was tall, but not short. But not tall, but he
Speaker 1: wasn't short. But he looked at me, and I think
Speaker 1: he may have really liked me. And they'd say, are
Speaker 1: you experience confusion? No, I'm completely I'm completely coherent. I
Speaker 1: do need a slink. I do need a slink. So
Speaker 1: my sentence for that would probably be take live on
Speaker 1: a date at least, especially given the chemistry. And he
Speaker 1: does seem single. I've seen the interview. I believe that
Speaker 1: was chemistry. I think that's really important. And I also
Speaker 1: think we write into do more, and we say I
Speaker 1: went on a date. We can write at first person,
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. It's anonymous. I went on a date with
Speaker 1: Paul and let up in with a dislocated shoulder. I
Speaker 1: will offer no more details for the full story. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: great idea before we go. I have a lazy girl
Speaker 1: story that I got from a lazy girl in the wine.
Speaker 1: She's a lazy girl. She told me her name and
Speaker 1: I forgot it, and I feel awful, but she told me,
Speaker 1: and I did. I prosecuted this in real time with
Speaker 1: her because I said, what you're telling me is actually
Speaker 1: really smart and worried that there's work involved, and she said, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I promise you this is lazy. Okay, okay. So I'm
Speaker 1: just going to put it to you. So her son
Speaker 1: loves some dirty Xbox. I love sitting there with Xbox.
Speaker 1: And her issue is that she makes dinner and she
Speaker 1: yells dinner, dinner doesn't listen. You've got to hit the
Speaker 1: headphones on, can't he. So she was like, what am
Speaker 1: I going to do when I need him to do
Speaker 1: something for me and I can't get his attention. So
Speaker 1: what she did when she went and she bought a
Speaker 1: doorbell and she stuck a doorbell, the doorbell buzzer to
Speaker 1: the top of his computer. Oh my god. In the kitchen,
Speaker 1: she's got a thing which goes that's dinner. What I
Speaker 1: would say, it's as lazy situation. I hate you, lazy boy, boy,
Speaker 1: boy boy, lazy boy. Oh wow, lady boy. And I
Speaker 1: said that sounds complicated, and she said no, no, no,
Speaker 1: it's really cheap. And I said, is there wiring involved?
Speaker 1: Because that worried me because I'm not doing a no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: just plug it in. It is ultimately lazy because what
Speaker 1: she's saving is time in yelling, time in yelling and
Speaker 1: also steps. Yeah, because if she's having to walk, is
Speaker 1: there anything worse in my house? Yelling out to my husband?
Speaker 1: He says, I can't he It's like, well, I'm not
Speaker 1: coming closer. Yeah, So what I'll probably do is yell
Speaker 1: at the same volume. My biggest fights with my husband
Speaker 1: are him shouting out to me when I can't hear him. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think we need walkie talking too in my home.
Speaker 1: Actually me too. Yeah, Jesse, that is all we've got
Speaker 1: time for today on canceled. We'll be back next week.
Speaker 1: Canceled is produced by Kimberly Bradish, audio production by Leah
Speaker 1: Porgees and leave us a five star review that would
Speaker 1: be Blair. It'dy la Blair, Bye bye friends. We are
Speaker 1: doing a live event, Canceled Live at the University of Sydney.
Speaker 1: You can come and see us in real life at
Speaker 1: the Alumni Festival the University of Sydney on Saturday, November
Speaker 1: the thirtieth. The event is free, but you have to
Speaker 1: register for tickets, so we'll pop a link in our
Speaker 1: show notes. But that is just so lazy girl that
Speaker 1: we don't expect you to pay. We would never know. Well,
Speaker 1: we shouldn't say never, because one day we might like
Speaker 1: to profit, but not now. Today is not that day.
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be quite almost an emotional
Speaker 1: event because you and I both went. The last time
Speaker 1: we're at Sidney UNI was when we were at Sydney UNI. Yeah,
Speaker 1: was when I was graduating. We were studying there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're doing all of our courses in celebrities. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: studied a degree in pop culture cancelations. We did, and
Speaker 1: they don't offer that. They don't they're not off very
Speaker 1: good degrees. There are a bunch of other events happening
Speaker 1: across the day. They're not just putting the festival on
Speaker 1: for us. Oh they might be. Would we call ourselves headliners? No,
Speaker 1: because Doctor Carl's going to be there. Oh my god.
