Speaker 1: Hi.
Speaker 3: I'm Leanna Holsten, I'm Sienna Jacob, and welcome to Tossed Popcorn,
Speaker 3: the podcast where two idiots watched every film on the
Speaker 3: AFI's one hundred Greatest American Movies of All Time, the
Speaker 3: very slightly less racist tenth Anniversary edition, and are now
Speaker 3: watching films directed by women.
Speaker 1: Hell yeah, this podcast is a safe camp for people
Speaker 1: who don't know anything about movies. Today we're watching The
Speaker 1: Parent Trap. You want to know the real difference between us.
Speaker 1: Let me see, I know how to sense and you don't.
Speaker 1: Or I have claws and you don't. Take your pick.
Speaker 1: Why an absolutely classic film. Many of us watched it
Speaker 1: many a sleepover. I'm sure many of us. Warning there
Speaker 1: will be spoilers about this surprisingly traumatic, yeah, surprisingly traumatic
Speaker 1: old film.
Speaker 3: Mm hm hm Sienna, Okay, you've seen this, you've seen this.
Speaker 1: I have, and it was the kind of thing where
Speaker 1: it's like, wow, I have some really visceral memories of
Speaker 1: the movie from being at a sleepover. It was the
Speaker 1: first time I heard the word yesteryear. I of course
Speaker 1: remember the ear piercing scene. Who doesn't mm hmmmm hmmm,
Speaker 1: impossible to forget, et cetera, et cetera, What about you, et.
Speaker 3: Cetera, et cetera. I have seen it a lot. I
Speaker 3: don't recall seeing it at sleepovers. I recall seeing it
Speaker 3: with my mom. Just if it was on, we would
Speaker 3: watch it.
Speaker 1: It probably means more to you as a redhead. Thank you.
Speaker 3: Thank you for saying that. I assume as I was afraid.
Speaker 3: I was afeared to claim that as mine. But thank you,
Speaker 3: thank you.
Speaker 1: Well.
Speaker 3: Do you know what very related? Let me play you
Speaker 3: my prediction of the film. Good morning, Ciena, It's Leanna.
Speaker 3: I am about to watch the parent Trap. I've seen
Speaker 3: a bunch a bunch of bunch of bunch because I
Speaker 3: looked exactly like Lindsay Lohan, who when she says the line,
Speaker 3: come on, Anne, I gotta meet my mom, it was
Speaker 3: kind of spooky. I predict Cutie Patuti's camping in Maine. Oh,
Speaker 3: it's gurgenteny Parents, except that Dennis Quaid is famously bonkers.
Speaker 1: Now and just a nice and lovely nineteen nineties time.
Speaker 1: Love you bye. Absolutely hm.
Speaker 3: Wow, Yeah, I really hit a flat note when I
Speaker 3: said Trap in the Parent Trap, Parent Tra Trap. It
Speaker 3: was like a minor key. It was very odd. I
Speaker 3: spoke in a minor key.
Speaker 1: I took a big swig of coffee right when I
Speaker 1: heard that, and then I almost shot it all over
Speaker 1: my computer. Leanna, shall we listen to my my old
Speaker 1: person over here? Yes?
Speaker 4: Please?
Speaker 3: It's too late, all right, okay, al ready, what's going
Speaker 3: on with you?
Speaker 1: I woke up so recently, and I'm trying to pretend
Speaker 1: I didn't. I'm sorry. Anything I say didn't.
Speaker 3: Every time Sanna wakes up, she's very fatalistic.
Speaker 1: It means nothing anything.
Speaker 3: It's too late, all right, Let's listen to your prediction
Speaker 3: before it's too late, all right.
Speaker 1: Ready, I don't even remember saying that. Oh hi, Leanna,
Speaker 1: Sienna here, I'm about to watch The Parent Trap. I
Speaker 1: haven't seen it in a long time. Lindsay Lohan is twins.
Speaker 1: Summer Camp one is British? Uh what's her name from?
Speaker 1: From Abbod Elementary? Isn't it? The mob? And they try
Speaker 1: to get their their their parents back together and it
Speaker 1: works or it doesn't work. It does work. I don't remember. Wait,
Speaker 1: it works. I love you? Goodbye?
Speaker 3: Did you enter a new dimension?
Speaker 1: I think that people were like coming downstairs in my house.
Speaker 1: So I ran outside.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, they like you'd opened the door to oz.
Speaker 3: It's weird, lovely chimes come in.
Speaker 1: I didn't say anything afterwards.
Speaker 3: Oh girl, hey girl, girl, I am just fresh back
Speaker 3: from a facial.
Speaker 1: This is why you look.
Speaker 3: Thank you well, thanks for saying that. I went. Did
Speaker 3: I tell you about the last time I got a facial?
Speaker 1: Is that where she said this was a eyebags? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah yeah, tired eyes. Yeah, Mama, I got the
Speaker 3: same person again today, and Mama, same pairs of words
Speaker 3: came out of her mouth.
Speaker 1: No, one year and three.
Speaker 3: Months after, I'm still rocking tired eyes.
Speaker 1: She said that again, that doesn't really apply to what
Speaker 1: a facial does, like they're not supposed.
Speaker 3: To final a roast. Well, I've been instructed. Okay, but
Speaker 3: here's the thing. So, yes, I was reminded of my
Speaker 3: tired eyes. And this is unbelievably funny. She started to
Speaker 3: do my shoulder massage as she did last time, and
Speaker 3: as she said last time, she said, today, oh it's
Speaker 3: rock solid down there.
Speaker 1: She really is.
Speaker 3: She really is consistent. She's comfortingly predictable. Yes, why and
Speaker 3: you know what was so kind of awesome about it today,
Speaker 3: solid down there. Last time I took those things very personally,
Speaker 3: but this time around, I'm just in such a more
Speaker 3: blessed place.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 3: That I was like, fine, okay, it's not a critique
Speaker 3: of my human worth. It's just, oh, this is kind
Speaker 3: of your situation currently, and here's something you could do
Speaker 3: to change it if you want to. Which the thing
Speaker 3: to do? Cucumber slices on my eyes. Wow, genuine that
Speaker 3: the old timey stuff. Sometimes it works.
Speaker 1: It's not often that you get to relive a situation exactly.
Speaker 1: It was pretty unbelievable, and I was laughing on the inside.
Speaker 1: I was laughing on the inside that it was said again.
Speaker 1: I also it was a little crushing up top because
Speaker 1: I was like, surely not. That was because the last
Speaker 1: time I got a facial was the worst I'd looked
Speaker 1: in years, because it was right after that really harrowing
Speaker 1: office moved of deep stress for five weeks. This time around,
Speaker 1: I've been pretty chill for a couple of months at least.
Speaker 1: But Ma's Mama's eyes remained tired. For some reason. I
Speaker 1: always think in those situations they'll have seen it all
Speaker 1: and won't say things like that. But oh, hey, girl,
Speaker 1: I went to the bank the other day, okay, because
Speaker 1: I had a whole jar of cash that I've been
Speaker 1: gathering from either random gigs or or when we went
Speaker 1: on tour. I was the financial manager, and so the
Speaker 1: cash we would just go to like I just held
Speaker 1: onto it and then we just used my bank account.
Speaker 1: So okay, I'd been spending some of it, but the
Speaker 1: rest I'm like, I need to cash this now mm hm.
Speaker 1: So I brought it to the bank, so it was
Speaker 1: quite a bit, but not like thousands and thousands of dollars,
Speaker 1: because it's not like I don't make my whole living
Speaker 1: in cash or anything. I say this because I brought
Speaker 1: it to the bank in this and I wasn't sure
Speaker 1: how to go about it the best way. So I
Speaker 1: just went up and I said, Hi, I have his Jara,
Speaker 1: what's the best way for me to do this? The
Speaker 1: woman looks at it, she laughs out loud. Oh, come on,
Speaker 1: let's not a big laugh. She goes, is that a
Speaker 1: piggy bank? And then she turns to her bank or
Speaker 1: friends and laughs and points with them no. Yes, And
Speaker 1: then the second time around then she was like, oh, well,
Speaker 1: you need to flatten all this money out and then
Speaker 1: bring it back. So I had to go over say
Speaker 1: that like a little chair, and I flattened out all
Speaker 1: the money. They kind of flattened it on my lap,
Speaker 1: and I set it under a notebook in my bag,
Speaker 1: and I set it out in three separate stacks because
Speaker 1: I'm like, it's probably gonna get it's probably gonna get
Speaker 1: jumbled if I do just one. And then I brought
Speaker 1: it over and I got a different woman and she
Speaker 1: laughed again, but this time not about the jar. The
Speaker 1: first one was kind of like sweet. She was sort
Speaker 1: of like, is that a piggy bank? No? No, no, no,
Speaker 1: it's okay, it's okay. Sorry. But this person was like cash,
Speaker 1: oh wow, oh my god, just like you're the bank's
Speaker 1: fucking job. You're a bank, you're.
Speaker 3: The last bastion of cash.
Speaker 1: More people here just did. Also the fuck. It's so
Speaker 1: funny to judge people's money choices, because that's what you're
Speaker 1: dealing with all day at the bank. Like you're seeing
Speaker 1: people's you're seeing how much people have, You're seeing how
Speaker 1: much they're putting they got it, they're seeing how much
Speaker 1: taking out, Like there's so much to judge about people's
Speaker 1: money choices, that to openly proudly judge them is just
Speaker 1: so wild and kind of hilarious. God, but she went,
Speaker 1: she this new person who was truly had a meaner spirit.
Speaker 3: She laughed.
Speaker 1: She said, earlier I cashed five thousand dollars in ones.
Speaker 3: And I was like, okay, all right, that kind of
Speaker 3: actually feels like a violation of someone's So.
Speaker 1: I was like, that could have to do with their work,
Speaker 1: Like I don't know, I wouldn't. That's fine, Like good
Speaker 1: for them, that's amazing. So you have this machine to
Speaker 1: do it, I mean, and and I'm sorry, but that's
Speaker 1: not how much I have. Then she was like, why
Speaker 1: are these some different stacks? And I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: I was just thinking, so they didn't get so they
Speaker 1: didn't get stuck in the machine or whatever. She's like,
Speaker 1: it would actually be easier for me if they're in
Speaker 1: one stack. Oh okay, wow. So I slid them to
Speaker 1: her under the thing. She puts them in one stack,
Speaker 1: and they get stuck in the machine. They got stuck
Speaker 1: in the machine only, So I mean, the machine is
Speaker 1: machine is good, It goes through, goes and then if
Speaker 1: you can't read what it just like spits it out.
Speaker 1: But I was like, this is why I put it
Speaker 1: in smaller stacks.
Speaker 3: So wow, anyway, people need to learn to shut the
Speaker 3: hell up.
Speaker 1: I didn't leave feeling very bad because it was all
Speaker 1: just so surprising. But I just I couldn't believe that
Speaker 1: they were allowed to that part of their training wasn't
Speaker 1: don't respond to any of people's money.
Speaker 3: This is my thing, my theory. I have a theory
Speaker 3: that nobody is a manager anymore, like anybody who has
Speaker 3: the title of manager, which includes me, but I don't
Speaker 3: actually manage anyone.
Speaker 1: So I'm fine.
Speaker 3: Anybody who's a manager and manages a team is not
Speaker 3: functioning as a manager because nobody gets management training anymore.
Speaker 3: Fact so there's that feels billions of people loose out
Speaker 3: there with no correct training, mainly in terms of how
Speaker 3: to be a person in front of other people. Yeah,
Speaker 3: like they might know how to file the thing, but
Speaker 3: you're gonna have a bad experience when they do it.
Speaker 1: It was crazy. It's like, we need.
Speaker 3: What's going on. We used to be a proper country.
Speaker 3: We used to be able to take cash to the
Speaker 3: bank and they would say hello, hello, welcome to the bank.
Speaker 1: The home of all the cash. I'll do that for you.
Speaker 3: May I take your cash, no problem.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's it's in a jar.
Speaker 3: That's very normal. And I'm not saying anything about it.
Speaker 3: Actually I'm seeing it with my eyeballs and store and
Speaker 3: that for later when I'm with my friends and trusted
Speaker 3: confidants there and can giggle with them.
Speaker 1: Not much of a of a sort of professional as
Speaker 1: across the board professional service culture in the United States
Speaker 1: with yeah, stage in the United States, which is a
Speaker 1: lot of times fine, it's like it's because we're all
Speaker 1: we're all people, and we're not pretending that. It's because
Speaker 1: there's very few rights for people.
Speaker 3: I know, there's so few rights. That's the issue. It's
Speaker 3: like I don't blame the workers, really blame the management.
Speaker 1: There are times where I go, I see why you
Speaker 1: would do this, And I do think the bank is
Speaker 1: a place where you should have just like a just
Speaker 1: put a face on, because what if I was like
Speaker 1: depositing like four dollars into an account with no money
Speaker 1: in it, I would think that these people would laugh
Speaker 1: at me. Yeah, you're not girls at the bank.
Speaker 3: It's telling of I mean, it's it's like you get
Speaker 3: a little bit roasted for your class. Yeah, because if
Speaker 3: you're at a bank that handles like people with millions
Speaker 3: of dollars in there exit, those people aren't batting an
Speaker 3: eye at whatever. You bring in a horse and you're like,
Speaker 3: I'd like to cash a horse. I guess they're like,
Speaker 3: of course, the really formal and.
Speaker 1: Uh thoughtful service is happening for it's just for the
Speaker 1: for the bill, it's for the rich. Yeah, yeah, that
Speaker 1: makes sense, and unfortunately the.
Speaker 3: Rest of us get treated like like egg.
Speaker 1: We're all together like egg. Yeah. Have you seen one
Speaker 1: of them days? No?
Speaker 3: I still think, oh my gosh. There's a scene in
Speaker 3: it that's absolutely incredible where they're trying to get a
Speaker 3: loan and the woman who played the teaching assistant on
Speaker 3: Abbot Elementary who was like way too cheerful and annoying,
Speaker 3: she's in it and she laughs when she sees Kiki
Speaker 3: Palmer's credit score. Palmer goes are you okay? And the
Speaker 3: one goes are you and your bank experience really is
Speaker 3: reminiscent of that scene.
Speaker 1: That's exactly what it was like.
Speaker 3: Sorry, everyone, we pranked each other too hard and have
Speaker 3: to go to the isolation cabin. We'll be back in
Speaker 3: a few minutes and or weeks. Oh, you know, speaking
Speaker 3: of people who are on Abbott Elementary. Yes, Sienna, would
Speaker 3: you please give us a synopsis of the film The
Speaker 3: Parent Trap.
Speaker 1: Yes, you know what. The synopsis is terrible. It's terrible.
Speaker 1: I broke it down in the only way I can understand,
Speaker 1: and then we can break it down together, all right,
Speaker 1: Oh baby, The Parent Trap. This is actually sort of
Speaker 1: a four part movie. It includes one Nemeses Slash Camp
Speaker 1: Prank Movie, two Switch a Room Movie and Wow We
Speaker 1: Are Sisters, Three Punish the Bach Movie, and four.
Speaker 3: Make Parents Date Again aka Parent Trap. Punish the Bach
Speaker 3: is really a genre.
Speaker 1: It is a genre. It's like, she is so mean,
Speaker 1: we gotta take her down.
Speaker 3: There's enough films out there that there is a genre
Speaker 3: called Punish the Boch.
Speaker 1: Yep starts out in a camp setting. The girls look
Speaker 1: exactly alike, don't really fully acknowledge it for some time
Speaker 1: as they're just fighting. Then at some point, none of
Speaker 1: their none of their mentors, none of the camp counselors
Speaker 1: say anything about it mm hmm or question it more.
Speaker 1: And then they discover their sisters due to a photograph
Speaker 1: et cetera et cetera.
Speaker 3: Yeah, same birthday, same birthday.
Speaker 1: All that stuff. They go, could we be sisters? But
Speaker 1: we look exactly alike? How could that be? Then they go, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: we're twins. Oh right, twins? And then they switch arough.
Speaker 1: Probably the most memorable parts of the movie, or the
Speaker 1: of the of the trope, is that they switch places
Speaker 1: and the British one pretends to be the American one
Speaker 1: and the American one pretends to be the British one,
Speaker 1: and they meet each other's parents, and then it becomes
Speaker 1: a plot to to make them get together again slash
Speaker 1: meet again, blah blah blah. Yeah, yeah, that's the parent
Speaker 1: trap and it has in it as a child twice
Speaker 1: twice double.
Speaker 3: M Okay, Well, let's switch into our phone notes where
Speaker 3: we read the notes the other person took on their
Speaker 3: phone while watching the film.
Speaker 1: Leanna, how how do you remember this movie? Is it
Speaker 1: very positively? Is it? Yeah?
Speaker 3: I remember it very fondly and in a bittersweet way
Speaker 3: because the mom died what do you mean, the British
Speaker 3: the actor who plays their mom, the beautiful British woman,
Speaker 3: That beautiful British woman died in a skiing accident. No,
Speaker 3: but she looks like Princess Diana in this I in
Speaker 3: my notes wrote, she is my Princess Diana. It's tragic,
Speaker 3: and I know it's horrible to be like, oh, but
Speaker 3: she was so beautiful. It's so sad that she's dead.
Speaker 3: But I do feel that way.
Speaker 1: I can't help how I naturally feel. I'm sorry. It's
Speaker 1: sad when a beautiful woman dies. So it's melancholy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's got melancholy tones. I always just loved it, pure
Speaker 1: loved it as a kid. I it seems like maybe
Speaker 1: not for you. No, I didn't. I don't have I
Speaker 1: was thinking about this, and you know what I realized
Speaker 1: is I had a lot of growing up. There was
Speaker 1: a real distaste from my family for like snotty little girls. Wow,
Speaker 1: like any snotty character. Often they made it little girls,
Speaker 1: but like any character. They also didn't like any characters
Speaker 1: who are really disrespectful to adults. Because while we were
Speaker 1: growing up, like on Nickelodeon and Disney Channel and stuff like,
Speaker 1: kind of the comedy would be like, dad, you're an idiot, Yeah,
Speaker 1: stuff like that.
Speaker 3: Or like and to be fair to them, the dad
Speaker 3: usually was an idiot.
Speaker 1: It's true. And yeah, I remember all the I think
Speaker 1: I wrote this at one point, but a lot of
Speaker 1: their tricks and stuff at that age, for some reason,
Speaker 1: it felt very sinister to me. It didn't feel funny.
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's the Catholic school punishment stuff,
Speaker 1: but because they kept getting I was really like, this
Speaker 1: is very bad. They're doing horrible things to each other
Speaker 1: and it's like they don't even care. But in retrospect
Speaker 1: watching it now, I was like, it's because it's comedy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So anyway, these aren't negative feelings, just complex child emotions
Speaker 1: where I wasn't thinking about if I liked it or not,
Speaker 1: because you don't have a choice over the show the
Speaker 1: movies you watch when you're a kid. But I just
Speaker 1: remember feeling kind of like, ah, scary, huh.
Speaker 3: I watching it as an adult found the summer camp pranks.
Speaker 3: My response that I was having today was very Oh,
Speaker 3: I guess that was the nineties, Like I guess, I
Speaker 3: guess children.
Speaker 1: Were completely unsupervised.
Speaker 3: It was pre nine to eleven, and in some way
Speaker 3: I think that means like they were less supervised at
Speaker 3: summer camps as well, like in no world could you
Speaker 3: in modern day or even when I was a tween
Speaker 3: at summer camp get like a vat of chocolate sauce.
Speaker 1: Where are all these vat upcroming from?
Speaker 3: Where did they get all the vast There would be
Speaker 3: an adult around at all times because if because the
Speaker 3: parents who are sending their kids to summer camp are
Speaker 3: parents who will sue. Yeah, and so there's always supervision.
Speaker 3: So you cannot put a bunk bed on a roof.
Speaker 3: It wouldn't be possible, It's not physically. Inevitably an adult
Speaker 3: would show up and say, what are you doing? Huh,
Speaker 3: you can't be in here. You're getting a demerit. Oh, Seattle,
Speaker 3: We've got two great Britain comments from you. Your first
Speaker 3: note is her accent is so much worse than I remember.
Speaker 3: And also Britain related, you've written her special things are
Speaker 3: in a box with the Queen on it.
Speaker 1: That was so funny. Is that what it's like over there?
Speaker 1: People are like, oh, let me just find my passport,
Speaker 1: and then they pick out a box with the Queen's
Speaker 1: face on it.
Speaker 3: T I would say that is what it is like
Speaker 3: for people who are in Annie's class and social strata
Speaker 3: and are Royalists. That family one big Royalist energy. They
Speaker 3: if you have a butler. It's likely you are a royalist.
Speaker 1: Do you have a butler? You are a royalist. We'll
Speaker 1: be right back, Leanna. You've said Hallie is a lesbian. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: was that coming across to you? Yeah, I mean she's
Speaker 1: only ever had a dad, so I guess that's what happens.
Speaker 1: I had that same thought. Oh my god, I couldn't
Speaker 1: believe I just said that, But I'm glad you had it.
Speaker 1: It's you know, you you grow up, you grow up,
Speaker 1: you grow up with bro culture a little bit, and
Speaker 1: it's Dennis Quaid, So you're gonna be put off men
Speaker 1: for life, right, Yeah, maybe they're allowed to bring forth
Speaker 1: your full masculine energy, which is maybe.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, love that. I love that analysis. Deep analysis,
Speaker 3: great analysis. And you know she had shoulder length hair
Speaker 3: and a bang one bang ye, and she knew how
Speaker 3: to play poker, and she was kind of like a
Speaker 3: a rebellious young lesbian.
Speaker 1: She was too cool for me to ever feel any
Speaker 1: sort of kinship to her as a child.
Speaker 3: Like, yes, I don't think either of these children exist,
Speaker 3: and the way that they were like in charge of
Speaker 3: their whole posse, and yeah, so fine being away from
Speaker 3: their parents.
Speaker 1: I was just like, wild, I don't know you, and
Speaker 1: you would scare me and you would make fun of me.
Speaker 1: I don't want to know you. Leanna, you've said ty
Speaker 1: die girl canonically a lesbian. Oh, the one that's like
Speaker 1: true I can lift? Who gets the duffel bag? Yeah? Hey,
Speaker 1: strong girl, can you help me get my bag out?
Speaker 1: He had no prop.
Speaker 3: She's literally in a rainbow shirt.
Speaker 1: Yeah. She was awesome, the tall, strong girl. I love her. Leanna,
Speaker 1: you said sock full of coins? Hallie is here for
Speaker 1: a gang fight. She's a sock full of coins. Yeah.
Speaker 1: She rocks up to the poker scene. The poker game. Oh,
Speaker 1: a sock of coin? You're going to beat someone? She's like, hey,
Speaker 1: oh it's poker. Yeah, yeah, I'll play.
Speaker 3: Did they delete a scene where she beats so.
Speaker 1: She was like, all right, I'm gonna go beat beat
Speaker 1: my twin to death?
Speaker 3: And short film Siena you noted, Okay, you got back
Speaker 3: from camp and are acting creepy af.
Speaker 1: Imagine your daughter gets back from camp, Yeah saying hi dad,
Speaker 1: let's go dad. Oh Dad, It's just so great that
Speaker 1: I finally again get to say dad. He was like, oh,
Speaker 1: that's that's nice. Hell, that's nice. Yeah, dad, What do
Speaker 1: you do? What would you actually do if your kid
Speaker 1: is suddenly really, really creepy? You're like, this is what people,
Speaker 1: what happens in all the scary movies child possessed.
Speaker 3: I'd be troubled that it was a changeling from Irish folklore,
Speaker 3: for sure, for sure, totally What would you do? I mean, well,
Speaker 3: the first in the first place, I wouldn't have a child,
Speaker 3: so that's number one. But if someone's child came back
Speaker 3: and was creepy, I'd say, hm, hm, you know.
Speaker 1: I never I don't. I am not of the the
Speaker 1: Catholic tradition of condoning any sort of exorcism situation. But
Speaker 1: I guess that is when I would go, Who else
Speaker 1: do I call? I'm not gonna call the cops on
Speaker 1: my child. Yeah, yeah, maybe I guess can help me?
Speaker 1: Oh a therapist? Okay, yeah, uh write a therapist?
Speaker 3: No no, no, no, of course I was, and I was
Speaker 3: saying therapist as well. Actually, priest is an anagram for therapist.
Speaker 1: Well, scratch that, we'll we'll cut that. We'll just let's
Speaker 1: cut that and cut that. Therapist therapist, therapist of course.
Speaker 1: Leanna uh, you said, Halle Hallie is not beating the
Speaker 1: lesbian allegations. Okay, which do you remember.
Speaker 3: When when she does a photoshoot with a bride.
Speaker 1: What's the most lesbian thing you can do? Have a bride?
Speaker 1: Of course, I guess marry a woman.
Speaker 3: It's pretty gay. That's so funny, ladies, is it gay
Speaker 3: to marry a woman?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Leannie, you've said it's a camp tradition. Talk to
Speaker 1: your friend from inside a closet, and then you've done
Speaker 1: a bunch of eyes eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes eyes. Hallie
Speaker 1: is when she was like she she takes pictures with
Speaker 1: a bride, her bride, and then she gets in the closet. Girl,
Speaker 1: if you're getting married to a woman and then you're
Speaker 1: talking on the phone in the closet, you might be
Speaker 1: a lesbian.
Speaker 3: You may as well come out of that closet. Honey, Oh, Siena,
Speaker 3: you noted. I always thought it was Missy Pyle playing this.
Speaker 3: I get it.
Speaker 1: I get really similar vibes in my mind.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think their their comedy, acting and facial
Speaker 3: expressions are similar.
Speaker 1: But now I'm like, what do I mostly know Missy
Speaker 1: Pile from as a kid? I thought I saw her
Speaker 1: stuff and as a kid early on the chocolate factory, right.
Speaker 1: And when I saw that, I remember thinking, oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: the woman from a parent drop. Oh wow, the parent drop.
Speaker 1: I just really the severe face of Meredith Blake. She's
Speaker 1: this time around. I thought so too. I don't know
Speaker 1: her from anything else. I don't think I don't either.
Speaker 3: I think she's done stuff, maybe recently, but I'm not sure.
Speaker 1: I saw her and I went, oh, it's not Missy Pile.
Speaker 1: This is probably going to be lame. And then she
Speaker 1: acted and I went, she's amazing. I thought that actress
Speaker 1: slaid so hard. She said when she said she was
Speaker 1: twenty six, we were all like, no, this person was
Speaker 1: in her thirties, because you think so. But I looked
Speaker 1: it up and she was twenty six. It was literally
Speaker 1: just that she was nobody our age and younger would
Speaker 1: ever dress so formally.
Speaker 3: Now the nineties had such formal And again it's like
Speaker 3: a class thing as well. It's these like elites wearing weird,
Speaker 3: ugly square cut.
Speaker 1: The hair, the pearls theory.
Speaker 3: Like still dresses. Yeah yeah, there me no movement starchy,
Speaker 3: thank you, that's the word I was looking for. Still
Speaker 3: the dress is very s I've made your shirt very still.
Speaker 1: You starched it, okay, Oh, I've made it very still. No,
Speaker 1: it's just very still.
Speaker 3: I don't know what I did in there, but it's
Speaker 3: really still now.
Speaker 1: Leanna, you said you said getting lost in Herods is
Speaker 1: actually incredibly stressful. When if she lost it was.
Speaker 3: That I always as a child was like, that sounds
Speaker 3: so dreamy when her mom is like, well, why don't
Speaker 3: I finish up faxing this over the nineties and then
Speaker 3: we can spend the afternoon getting lost in Herods?
Speaker 1: Is that a toy store.
Speaker 3: It's a very iconic department store, okay, in London that
Speaker 3: Princess Diana's husband's father started. Her second husband, Dodie al Fayed.
Speaker 3: His father started it in that family. I think maybe
Speaker 3: still owns it. I could be wrong, and it's huge
Speaker 3: and getting lost in it I go at the holidays
Speaker 3: because they decorate it for Christmas very intensely, and there
Speaker 3: is a toy section that's very fun to play in,
Speaker 3: but inevitably I get lost and I can't find my
Speaker 3: way out, and it's so scary because you're in a
Speaker 3: giant jacket. I'm always there in the winter, I'm always
Speaker 3: a little sweaty because I've bundled up to go outside,
Speaker 3: but then I can't get to the outside, and I
Speaker 3: don't know where the exit is. And you just keep
Speaker 3: going through more and more archways and hallways and departments,
Speaker 3: and they're looking at you like, we know you can't
Speaker 3: afford all this stuff. We know you're just here to peruse,
Speaker 3: keep it moving, and You're like, I'm trying to go,
Speaker 3: I'm trying to leave.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to keep it moving. Did you just find
Speaker 1: out you have a twin one of you is the
Speaker 1: gay one. We'll be right back. Leanna, you said you
Speaker 1: never came after me? Is so stupid and so real.
Speaker 1: That is that one of the girls.
Speaker 3: She's like, well, I when we broke up, I got
Speaker 3: on a plane and flew back to London and you
Speaker 3: never came after me. And I said, girl, I get it.
Speaker 3: I have used that logic in friendships and relationships alike,
Speaker 3: where I say I set a boundary and you didn't
Speaker 3: try to break it down.
Speaker 1: You respected it, and why not? It is crazy to
Speaker 1: respect it when you both have children together.
Speaker 3: I okay, we have to talk about this insane arrangement.
Speaker 3: You noted things are eerily chill, slash good vibes despite
Speaker 3: this extremely traumatizing thing they did.
Speaker 1: I know, for the movie to stand, they need to
Speaker 1: not really we have a suspension of disbelief around this
Speaker 1: crazy arrange. But I thought at least once somebody would
Speaker 1: go and by the way, I'm really sorry this is
Speaker 1: and the girls would go, I am mad at you
Speaker 1: guys for separating us.
Speaker 3: But yeah, the closest get Hallie's like, sorry to be
Speaker 3: like rude, but this really sucks. This arrangement really sucks. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and her mom's like, I agree, it totally sucks.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, I just don't you guys didn't.
Speaker 3: Based off what I've heard about being a parent, losing
Speaker 3: one of your children, which is essentially what happened is
Speaker 3: the worst thing that can happen to you.
Speaker 1: You don't just forget about them.
Speaker 3: No, it's really crazy.
Speaker 1: When they're being raised by someone you know. Also, I
Speaker 1: can't get my head around it. And they're twins, they're
Speaker 1: identical twins. I don't know or I think if I
Speaker 1: carried twins to term and birthed both of them, I'm
Speaker 1: hanging on to them. I guess what really confuses me
Speaker 1: more than anything because there are all sorts of strange
Speaker 1: parenting arrangements and you know, reasons people have to separate
Speaker 1: from a child and you know, let them be raised
Speaker 1: in their actual parents or somebody else who raises them. Like,
Speaker 1: you didn't talk to your ex in eleven years at all,
Speaker 1: not once to discuss the arrangement again.
Speaker 3: No, you were just ready to be like, I have
Speaker 3: one kid.
Speaker 1: Forever. Why.
Speaker 3: Well, so these are two of the wealthiest people on
Speaker 3: the planet according to the way that they live. Their
Speaker 3: lives very very navigable. This whole thing easy to get
Speaker 3: from London to California, as evidenced in the film numerous times.
Speaker 1: There are phones there. There's too much. It's not the
Speaker 1: olden days where it's just letters and living.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you didn't have to put the baby on a
Speaker 3: ship exactly, crazy, m Yeah, it was unsettling. It got
Speaker 3: to a point where I'm very chill about it.
Speaker 1: Unsettled because the parents are really just sort of like, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's too bad this happened. You did that. Also, why
Speaker 1: aren't you why why didn't you like grieve this like
Speaker 1: this is crazy? Yeah, yeah, yeah, Leanna, you said what
Speaker 1: happened to the concord? And then you said, Omg, I
Speaker 1: just googled it and it got banned because it was
Speaker 1: so fucking because it was so fucking loud and also
Speaker 1: crashed in France. Oh my god.
Speaker 3: So this is in part hilarious and in part a
Speaker 3: big tragedy. The Concord when it took.
Speaker 1: Off was so loud.
Speaker 3: Why it like disturbed local cities because it had to
Speaker 3: do a sonic boom. It had to fly so high
Speaker 3: and so much faster than a normal plane that it
Speaker 3: was unbelievably loud. And it was right around the time
Speaker 3: that people started caring about the environment on a bigger
Speaker 3: scale and they were like, this is obviously horrible. And
Speaker 3: then the really the kicker is that one of the
Speaker 3: planes crashed in France and everybody died.
Speaker 1: Holy moly, that's horrible.
Speaker 3: Yeah, kind of a grame, last note from me, Sorry
Speaker 3: about that.
Speaker 1: I'm just curious. That's very, very sad. But the sonic
Speaker 1: boom is really really funny.
Speaker 3: Oh god, imagine living near a place where the concord
Speaker 3: is taking off and you just have to hear booms.
Speaker 3: Imagine sonically if.
Speaker 1: We as people in order to survive. I guess that's
Speaker 1: kind of.
Speaker 3: What birds loving this they kind of follow that thought.
Speaker 1: If we as humans ever had to communicate with each
Speaker 1: other by sonic boom or a loud noise of sorts,
Speaker 1: you think the bird all right, mom, I'm going to school,
Speaker 1: or imagine you have the power of super speed. You
Speaker 1: do so and it's so embarrassing. That's the loudest, most
Speaker 1: ungainly sound. That's a good one, because we've talked have
Speaker 1: we talked about before that the would you rather of like,
Speaker 1: you can fly, but you can only be six feet
Speaker 1: off the ground and it's as hard as running.
Speaker 3: Then obviously whatever the other option is, or doesn't matter
Speaker 3: what the other option is, or you.
Speaker 1: Can go at the speed of light, but every time
Speaker 1: you do, you make a sonic boom. And I'm talking
Speaker 1: in actually I would boom on their do sonic boom.
Speaker 3: I'd sonic boom for sure, because then I would just
Speaker 3: be selective about where I took off from.
Speaker 1: Right, Most people wouldn't want to they'd want to be
Speaker 1: able to use it at any time.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And if you like move through to run to work,
Speaker 1: you would actually like you would go to jail so
Speaker 1: quickly if you kept sonic booming, your community kept you
Speaker 1: a sonic boomed every Tuesday and Thursday at eight thirty
Speaker 1: in the morning to get to the office on time.
Speaker 1: You destroy your stuff, it would like not be good.
Speaker 3: Is it so a sonic boom has like physical ramification
Speaker 3: my mind?
Speaker 1: In my mind, I guess.
Speaker 3: Maybe because I assume is a sound wave a physical thing?
Speaker 3: Can a sound wave be power or ful enough too?
Speaker 1: I would imagine that it also has a ripple physically.
Speaker 3: Why don't they let us into physics classrooms? Why don't
Speaker 3: they let us lead physics lectures? Then why would they
Speaker 3: teach women physics?
Speaker 1: Because if I had learned it, I would know the answer.
Speaker 1: Then we'd know that wasn't allowed because of my rights.
Speaker 1: And on your final note, is this movie is so cute.
Speaker 3: It's so cute. It's it's smooth brained as hell, which
Speaker 3: it's the Nancy Meyer's way of like just relax, just
Speaker 3: let it flow over you and then it's very enjoyable,
Speaker 3: which I think is a great segue if I do
Speaker 3: say so myself into our segment badges and tradges, where
Speaker 3: we give badges for booms and tradges for twin separation.
Speaker 3: Oh you know what a badge rite? Off the top
Speaker 3: for the music, some very iconic songs.
Speaker 1: And yes, this is the kind of movie that says, hey,
Speaker 1: we have the budget and we're gonna have you. It's
Speaker 1: gonna be a feel good movie, so we're gonna have
Speaker 1: some feel good tunes. They use that budget, right. My
Speaker 1: first badge just for fun vibes, which I wonder if
Speaker 1: I wrote at the camp or I really locked into
Speaker 1: the movie once they switch a rude when they were like, wait,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go live with your dad, you go live
Speaker 1: with my mom. I was like, I have to see
Speaker 1: what happens. I yeah, this is gonna be so fun
Speaker 1: if I was. If you're a twin, if you're in
Speaker 1: the situation, it is your responsibility to try this at
Speaker 1: least once, because how often do you get to really
Speaker 1: experience how others are treated. Even if you were to
Speaker 1: meet your dad, he's not gonna treat you exactly as
Speaker 1: the girl he's been raising. Mm hmmm, you know he's
Speaker 1: gonna treat you differently. You want to know what it's
Speaker 1: really like to be on the inside, and only twins
Speaker 1: can do that. Only twins.
Speaker 3: Oh, A badge for this kid. Just butchering the trumpet
Speaker 3: at summer camp that kid just trying their darndest to
Speaker 3: play the revey and it's windy to hell and they're
Speaker 3: in a windbreaker and they are struggling with all of
Speaker 3: their might to get those notes out.
Speaker 1: So relatable. I have a badge for as I was saying,
Speaker 1: love when they switch Aroo and she's kind of slaying
Speaker 1: at the acting, I was sitting back, going she really
Speaker 1: is playing she's playing Hallie, She's playing Annie. And then
Speaker 1: she was playing Annie playing Hallie and Halle playing Annie,
Speaker 1: and she was playing it subtly and in a sophisticated way,
Speaker 1: like Yes. Once they got on the phones to each
Speaker 1: other and were their genuine selves again, I was like,
Speaker 1: these people are different than the ones that they were
Speaker 1: just playing. She's not just Lindsay Lohan playing two girls,
Speaker 1: she is playing four distinct wow levels. Yeah, I was impressed.
Speaker 1: I was impressed with Lindsay. Very badge worthy.
Speaker 3: Badge for the girl reaching for the feathers. In the
Speaker 3: biggest prank scene at camp, they pull a thing and
Speaker 3: the fan turns on and the feathers fly down throughout
Speaker 3: the room and one of the girls in the background
Speaker 3: in her bed just reaches out with her hands up
Speaker 3: as if it's snow and I've never seen that before,
Speaker 3: and I said, that is so funny. Thank you for
Speaker 3: making that choice.
Speaker 1: It really made me laugh. Badge for badge for all
Speaker 1: the I don't know if they really count as character
Speaker 1: actors in this, but in a movie like this, almost
Speaker 1: everyone is sort of a character actor since they're playing
Speaker 1: such charcatures. But that includes Meredith, Yeah, Chessie. Oh, the
Speaker 1: the butler Martin. Yeah. I love when the butler is like,
Speaker 1: you changed your hair. It's the knew you. I love
Speaker 1: him anyway he is, Yes, Yeah.
Speaker 3: A badge for Nancy Meyer's films are so comforting.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I love that she puts everything near wine, even yeah,
Speaker 1: even a movie about tweens. Yeah, between film, between heist.
Speaker 1: Still there's going to be a vineyard, such gorgeous homes. Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: that's all the badges I wrote down, Okay, general.
Speaker 3: Badge for Lisa and Walter as Chessie. Yeah, and a
Speaker 3: subsequent badge for Lisa and Walter. Spoke at the Women's
Speaker 3: March in LA like four five years ago, six years
Speaker 3: some number of years ago, and I think this was
Speaker 3: pre Abbot, and she was like, she was completely like
Speaker 3: rallying the troops, that is, to be on board for
Speaker 3: women's rights and fight for them. And she was like,
Speaker 3: you loved me and the parent trap. Now go out
Speaker 3: and like do this and it was so sligh. That's
Speaker 3: so awesome. She knows she has a whole generation under
Speaker 3: her thumb because she does.
Speaker 1: And she does and it worked.
Speaker 3: I worship her. I think she's amazing and also the
Speaker 3: most comforting presence ever.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: A badge for Martin's.
Speaker 1: I've never been so happy and I'm tired life.
Speaker 3: Funny, funny and fun funny.
Speaker 1: He is gay. A badge for Sammy is so cute
Speaker 1: Sammy the Golden Retriever.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, and also an action hero when he
Speaker 3: leaps over the luggage cart to get into the elevator
Speaker 3: to say hello to actual house hero action hero Sammy,
Speaker 3: he went so fast.
Speaker 1: Badge for Sammy Boom.
Speaker 3: A badge for Martin taking a picture of Dennis Quaid
Speaker 3: falling into the pool normalize celebrating Dennis Quaid's disgrace And
Speaker 3: a badge for the actor who plays Meredith. I thought
Speaker 3: she really worked it. She freaked it. She's so good
Speaker 3: at that role. That role is troubling, but she did
Speaker 3: an amazing.
Speaker 1: Job at it. She played it all the way. Yes.
Speaker 3: And my final badge is for the wedding photos at
Speaker 3: the end that it opens with the wedding photo and
Speaker 3: it closes with like photos of their second wedding. And
Speaker 3: I love a movie that kind of keeps the story
Speaker 3: going during the credits. Oh that is sweet trages.
Speaker 1: Trages. My first trage is for as mentioned before, the
Speaker 1: strange messaging again forgivable. It's a fun little romp, but
Speaker 1: definitely it is that is at actually quite a formative
Speaker 1: age to tell kids either like that there are bad
Speaker 1: girls and good girls. Men are stupid and victims of
Speaker 1: women's intelligence and plotting, and that you do have an
Speaker 1: effect on your parents divorce. Yeah, but you know it's
Speaker 1: it's it's not that deep. Mm hmm.
Speaker 3: Trage for the cabins at the Summer camp are named
Speaker 3: after First Nations tribes. Oh, which was also the case
Speaker 3: at the summer camp I went to. And it's like, man,
Speaker 3: you have a bunch of white kids at this and
Speaker 3: you're doing all that and there's no recognition of any
Speaker 3: of anything at all.
Speaker 1: Yeah, big trag trag. I wrote this in Tragis, but
Speaker 1: it doesn't really have a value in this way, but
Speaker 1: I just wanted to acknowledge the ear piercing scene. I
Speaker 1: it was equally as visceral for me this time watching
Speaker 1: as when I was, yeah, a kid. I guess the
Speaker 1: feelings I feel around it are more on the negative
Speaker 1: side than the positive side. But also I like that,
Speaker 1: you know those are important things as it's important things
Speaker 1: that form memories as a child, and you're kind of
Speaker 1: learning science, the science of ear piercing. We were talking
Speaker 1: about how I'm like, I do sometimes burn needles to
Speaker 1: sterilize them if I'm ever going to use them, and
Speaker 1: I think it's probably from watching this movie. Wow.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it teaches you, in specific and detailed steps
Speaker 3: how to pierce an ear.
Speaker 1: It's true.
Speaker 3: I watching it this time, I was like, Oh, but
Speaker 3: they don't watch it go in the ear. They do,
Speaker 3: and they do they show it.
Speaker 1: There's a fleshy, a fleshy piercing occurs.
Speaker 3: I wonder whose lobe that was.
Speaker 1: I was crazy.
Speaker 3: Trage for an appropriative totem pole. They have like a
Speaker 3: totem pole, but it's like they've put just like random
Speaker 3: characters on it, like a Teddy Bear and others. And
Speaker 3: I was like, so not only is this not in
Speaker 3: the correct context of which it should be used, you've
Speaker 3: also defiled it disrespectful. Disrespectful, Yeah, disrespectful.
Speaker 1: Trage for I was it it It killed me when
Speaker 1: Chessie makes this whole delightful, delicious, amazing meal for Annie,
Speaker 1: who yeah, she thinks is Hallie, and Hallie likes to
Speaker 1: eat a lot. But Annie just eats one bite, she
Speaker 1: eats one bite toest and she goes, I'm done like you.
Speaker 1: Not only is that not only is that aggravating for
Speaker 1: somebody who loves food. I want, I want, I want
Speaker 1: the satisfaction of eating all that food. But also that
Speaker 1: is very rude. She just made you this whole thing.
Speaker 1: Just sit down and eat a damp pancake.
Speaker 3: Eat the damn pancake. Also, wouldn't you, as an English child,
Speaker 3: be curious about an American pancake? The answer is yes, Wow,
Speaker 3: that's a great point.
Speaker 1: Do they have pancakes in a normal way there? Nope?
Speaker 1: What are they like?
Speaker 3: I don't want to talk about it, understood, Uh. Traged
Speaker 3: for it's really too bad that Dennis Quaid is insane now,
Speaker 3: he's so far right and unhinged, and it did make
Speaker 3: it harder to enjoy the film.
Speaker 1: Why do they gotta do that? Mm hmmm, what do
Speaker 1: they gotta do it to us? M uh yeah, main
Speaker 1: trade for a movie like this is just the nineties
Speaker 1: or two thousand's whatever. Yeah, uh, there's some They were
Speaker 1: being so mean to Meredith at a certain point. I
Speaker 1: was like, you know, I know that they're saying she's
Speaker 1: like a gold digger. So that's the that's the thing
Speaker 1: that's really like, she's out genuinely looking out for the family.
Speaker 1: She wants to kick the girls out, blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: But at a certain point, just break up with her.
Speaker 1: Your girls don't like her. You guys aren't a good match.
Speaker 1: And they were. They were. They were trying to kill her.
Speaker 3: They wondered if there was a nearby cliff they could
Speaker 3: It was crazy. They were trying to kill her like
Speaker 3: the dwarves did in Snow White. To them, she was
Speaker 3: the old bitch.
Speaker 1: She was the old bitch, yeah, the old Yeah. So
Speaker 1: there's just sort of a real sense of like do
Speaker 1: not trust some women. But there was no like bad
Speaker 1: like guys, you know, it was they felt so bad
Speaker 1: for the dad, yeah, or you know, they're pitying their
Speaker 1: their poor dad, right, he can't help himself. It's not
Speaker 1: his fault. Yeah, it'd be nice if one woman had
Speaker 1: been like dude, get it, toget bruh, yeah, or man,
Speaker 1: which they sort of had with Chessie, but she was
Speaker 1: in a place where she obviously couldn't say she had
Speaker 1: no power. Yeah, she had to be like this guy
Speaker 1: is not doing making good choices. This is not right.
Speaker 3: My final two trages are a trage for that kiss
Speaker 3: was way too intimate. The kiss between the parents at
Speaker 3: the very end, that's so prolonged and close up and
Speaker 3: the girls are just watching happily. If my parents started
Speaker 3: making out in front of me, I would say, sorry,
Speaker 3: can you give me a minute to leave? Yeah, that's
Speaker 3: un I'll go ahead and get out of here. Seems
Speaker 3: like you two need to have a moment, but I
Speaker 3: do not need to be here for that. It was
Speaker 3: so prolonged. Mm hmm that it was not appropriate.
Speaker 1: That is not appropriate.
Speaker 3: Mmmm, that was not appropriate. And my final trage is
Speaker 3: a trage for proposing at someone else's wedding. In the
Speaker 3: wedding photos in the credits, Martin proposes to Chessie for
Speaker 3: their lavender marriage, and I get it. It's a sweet thing,
Speaker 3: but no one should ever do that at someone else's wedding.
Speaker 3: It is rude and it steals the thunder of the
Speaker 3: people you're supposed to be celebrating.
Speaker 1: Very true, which is something I'm a little triggered about
Speaker 1: right now.
Speaker 3: I'm a little sensitive about that these days. But I
Speaker 3: also stand by that as a belief forever.
Speaker 1: I completely agree with that completely. Thank you, Thank you. Well.
Speaker 1: Let's sonic boom into our next segment. How to pretend
Speaker 1: you've seen this film?
Speaker 3: This is for You're at camp. You're at summer camp.
Speaker 1: Summer camp. You're one of the one of those adult
Speaker 1: summer camp experiences. You got a free coupon and your
Speaker 1: friend wanted to go, and you said, all right, okay, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: and you go and Dennis comes up to you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and he says, hey, trying to right wing Dennis trying
Speaker 1: to start a cuddle pile over there. Oh God, this
Speaker 1: is not what I was hoping from an adult summer
Speaker 1: camp situation. But now I'm seeing now how that's I understand. Oh,
Speaker 1: it's an orgy, he cuddle. This is a right wing orgy.
Speaker 1: Talk about what we think about taxes and things. Talk
Speaker 1: about our talk about to talk about tariffs and uh.
Speaker 1: In order to trap Dennis, I don't even want to
Speaker 1: talk to you about the movie. I just want to
Speaker 1: talk about terror. Yeah, right, right right, and maybe even
Speaker 1: a movie I was in a couple of movies I
Speaker 1: was in because the.
Speaker 3: Parent Oh, it's me, Dennis quad In order to trap
Speaker 3: Dennis Quaid in his own wine cellar, that's also at
Speaker 3: the Summer Camp. We're gonna give you a few sentences
Speaker 3: you can say to pretend you've seen the film The
Speaker 3: Parent Trap. Dennis, I've seen the Dennis Quaid, I've seen
Speaker 3: The Parent Trap. It is set the Summer Camp is
Speaker 3: set at a place called Moose Lake, Maine, but in
Speaker 3: fact was filmed in visibly California. Here's one more fact.
Speaker 3: There are some islands in Maine that put a lot
Speaker 3: of moose on their merchandise, but there's no moose on
Speaker 3: the islands, because what's the moose gonna do?
Speaker 1: Take the bridge? Great point, This is true. Yes, Dennis,
Speaker 1: I have seen the film The Parent Trap. Here's one
Speaker 1: of the pieces of quote unquote trivia, an oddity for
Speaker 1: a Disney film. This one shows a mother smoking a
Speaker 1: cigarette and getting deliberately drunk. Whoo, It's true. Also funnily,
Speaker 1: Mama Lindsay Lohan pretended to be sick so she could
Speaker 1: skip school to see her first Oh, to go to
Speaker 1: her first movie audition for The Parent Drop. I thought
Speaker 1: it was to see that nice, which is nice? Love that?
Speaker 3: Yes, Dennis Quaid, I've seen The Parent Trap. Hallie is
Speaker 3: driven on an insane route when she is pretending to
Speaker 3: be Annie and has arrived at Heathrow. She drives from
Speaker 3: Heathrow through Central London back to West London, which would
Speaker 3: be like if you flew into Lax and you lived
Speaker 3: in Santa Monica, but decided to get to Santa Monica
Speaker 3: by driving through Hollywood on.
Speaker 1: The way there.
Speaker 3: It's out of the way and inconvenient. These people have
Speaker 3: money to burn.
Speaker 1: That's so funny. Yes, Dennis Quaid, I have seen the
Speaker 1: film The Parent Trap. In the movie, Dennis Quaid is
Speaker 1: engaged to a twenty six year old gold digger. Coincidentally,
Speaker 1: he married his fourth wife when she was twenty six
Speaker 1: years old. Oh. As a result, his co star Elaine
Speaker 1: Hendrix tweeted to him, better watch out for those twins.
Speaker 3: Ah Laane, you're christ Slane.
Speaker 1: Oh.
Speaker 3: Wow, art imitates life. Life imitates art. Yes, Dennis Quaid,
Speaker 3: I've seen The Parent Trap. It chooses not to tackle
Speaker 3: the subject of class, particularly in England, as evidenced by
Speaker 3: Elizabeth James's line to her butler Martin, you know, I
Speaker 3: think you as a lovable brother who just happens to
Speaker 3: wait on us. Okay, girl, I love you, But that's crazy.
Speaker 3: That's a crazy thing to say to you, employee.
Speaker 1: We're a family. Ass. I can't remember this scene, this says, yes,
Speaker 1: that is Quita. I have seen the film of The
Speaker 1: Parent Drap. The scene where Annie and Hallie are lying
Speaker 1: in bed and the camera pans from the moon to
Speaker 1: the parents picture to the twins took six hours to
Speaker 1: get right. Oh god, Lindsay Lohan had to change from
Speaker 1: Annie to Halle and back many times. Oh, I can't
Speaker 1: make the films. Was so hard in the past.
Speaker 3: That's their first night of figuring out that their sisters
Speaker 3: at camp, and they smashed their beds together in the
Speaker 3: isolation cabin, which, by the way, an insane thing to have.
Speaker 1: Are they isolated for the rest of camp for like
Speaker 1: six thinks?
Speaker 4: So?
Speaker 1: I think so? Which is.
Speaker 3: I think a human rights violation?
Speaker 1: Cruelty.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a like like solitary. They put them essentially
Speaker 3: in solitary.
Speaker 1: The parents didn't know that.
Speaker 3: It's like those parents would absolutely sue, Actually, British people
Speaker 3: aren't particularly litigious. H Dennis Quaid would sue.
Speaker 1: Well, Leanna, shall we move on to our next segment,
Speaker 1: which is, of course, should you watch this or where
Speaker 1: we tell you if you should watch this film or
Speaker 1: if you should do anything else with your summertime.
Speaker 3: Summer time, I would say you can certainly watch The
Speaker 3: Parent Trap. It's a fun watch. It'll really make you
Speaker 3: crave oreos and peanut butter, which if you live in
Speaker 3: a country where the peanut butter is just different, it's
Speaker 3: gonna make you sad. If you're not in the mood.
Speaker 3: It's all a slightly different. If you're not in the
Speaker 3: mood for this film, you could instead watch Abbott Elementary,
Speaker 3: absolutely the best hitch show. If you're in the mood
Speaker 3: for seeing kids who are not all white, you could
Speaker 3: watch Happen. I think there was one black girl at
Speaker 3: the entire summer camp and then everyone else was white.
Speaker 3: But Elementary it's on Hulu is how I view it.
Speaker 3: It's it's on ABC. If you have TV still, it's
Speaker 3: so fun.
Speaker 1: That's a perfect you know, what would you say, that's
Speaker 1: a perfect recommendation, Thank you? I would say, Oh, I
Speaker 1: would say you could watch The Parent Trap if if,
Speaker 1: if you want it is it's a very nostalgic. Watch
Speaker 1: what you could watch instead with Lindsay Lohan? If maybe
Speaker 1: you imprinted on this one more as a child? Never forget?
Speaker 1: Is the movie Life Size with Tyre b Wow? Yes,
Speaker 1: that movie I loved. That was my movie? Mm I
Speaker 1: forgot it was her in it?
Speaker 3: To be honest, doesn't Tyra Banks set a computer on fire?
Speaker 3: On from that movie, she tries to use a word
Speaker 3: processor and the computer sets on fire.
Speaker 1: Probably. I love when she sits down to do work
Speaker 1: and just types random letters. It's soutable. It's such a
Speaker 1: good movie.
Speaker 3: Oh, Siena, what would you rate the film The Parent Trap?
Speaker 1: Oh gosh, I'll give The Parent Trap three point eight
Speaker 1: vats of chocolate out of five. The beginning of the
Speaker 1: movie at camp, I would have cut. I didn't need it.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, I didn't. The pranking and stuff stressed me
Speaker 1: out so much. But everything after that I found the
Speaker 1: switcher Roo time like so fun. I love these girls
Speaker 1: were geniuses, all the characters they brought in, all the
Speaker 1: adult characters who were being goofy. Very fun. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: a super fun watch. It's very cute. Yes, Leanna, what
Speaker 1: about yourself? I Nika.
Speaker 3: I would the parent trap four sonic booms out of five.
Speaker 3: I enjoy it very much. It is so fun to
Speaker 3: watch a bunch of girlies scheme and plot.
Speaker 1: It's not just the twins.
Speaker 3: Also, their mom is schemes and plots. And I said, say,
Speaker 3: Chessie's everybody scheming and plotting, and I say, fun.
Speaker 1: I love that.
Speaker 3: I also think I love the camp sequence, but specifically
Speaker 3: because it's set in Maine. So I always felt a
Speaker 3: personal connection to the movie because of that, and because
Speaker 3: the most I looked like Lindsay Lohan as a child
Speaker 3: is when she says a line while she's at the
Speaker 3: summer camp, come on, Anne, I gotta meet my mom.
Speaker 1: I gotta see that. I got to see her transform
Speaker 1: into you. Well, everybody, thank you so much for listening
