And listen, there was a 0:01:09.520 --> 0:01:11.880 fork in the road in the past one different ways. 0:01:13.160 --> 0:01:16.959 A writer for The Good Place, Parks and Rack, Broad City. 0:01:17.120 --> 0:01:22.920 An amazingly talented comedic writer, your old like office mate, 0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:26.360 office mate, I mean friend, dear friends, very very talented, 0:01:27.400 --> 0:01:33.880 had a deadline article this week, baby a deadline. Hello, Hi, 0:01:34.000 --> 0:01:37.240 I'm very happy to be here. CJ really naking me 0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:41.240 right off the bath. I wasn't on purpose. I I 0:01:41.240 --> 0:01:43.200 feel like I nagged everyone in the room. Oh I 0:01:43.240 --> 0:01:46.280 forgot one more thing too, maybe the most important Clippers 0:01:46.480 --> 0:01:49.760 season ticket holders. Yes, you are a huge sports fan. 0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:51.960 It's not just like you're a random successful friend we 0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:55.120 brought in here. You are, which we will have at 0:01:55.120 --> 0:01:57.760 some point. You are. I'm a I'm a huge, huge 0:01:57.800 --> 0:02:01.120 basketball fan obsessed with basketball. We're different from you guys. 0:02:01.160 --> 0:02:05.040 They think no, pretty much nothing about other sports. Okay, 0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:09.440 I know, like the basic tools that they use, but yeah, 0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:13.080 the football, the bad, etcetera. But I I really like 0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:16.440 the mountain I know about basketball and think about basketball 0:02:16.480 --> 0:02:19.040 compared to what I think about any other sport. It's 0:02:19.400 --> 0:02:22.600 it's very different, and was that from a young age. 0:02:23.720 --> 0:02:25.880 I think what it was was I grew up playing 0:02:26.120 --> 0:02:30.400 softball and field hockey, which is it's like mowing grass 0:02:30.440 --> 0:02:32.800 as a sport, because you're just hacking at the field 0:02:32.919 --> 0:02:35.680 with a stick to chop down grass. It's truly the 0:02:35.680 --> 0:02:38.480 worst sports wild wild that it exists. It's pretty wide 0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:45.280 from thee in Indiana. We didn't. We had no lacrosse, 0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:48.160 we had no field hockey. It was not the crossing 0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:50.600 field hockey were big in my town. Really interesting, but 0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:52.960 I think it was. And I played basketball, but I 0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:55.320 think it's a reaction to try to like it was. 0:02:55.400 --> 0:02:57.480 Basketball was not my main sport growing up. And I 0:02:57.520 --> 0:03:00.840 think it's a reaction that distanced myself from my childhood 0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:05.280 because to focus on basketball and forget all the others 0:03:04.600 --> 0:03:06.880 that a lot of because a lot of our friends 0:03:06.960 --> 0:03:10.399 it's because like they wanted they embrace their childhood. It's 0:03:10.480 --> 0:03:14.240 like this is away from it. Yeah, because I mean 0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:17.240 like the Reds, I like two thousand and four when 0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:19.040 they won the World Series. That's like right when I 0:03:19.080 --> 0:03:22.080 was in Like they were so huge when I was 0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:23.960 growing up, and my dad used to take me up 0:03:24.000 --> 0:03:26.679 in my park like a bunch. And yeah, I don't 0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:30.880 want to think about that. The town is tough for 0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:35.000 you to lot. Yeah exactly, Well it truly like it 0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:39.560 is only because like my dad does have the craziest 0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:42.960 Boston acts and you've ever heard like he came out 0:03:43.400 --> 0:03:45.920 maybe a couple of years ago. We were buying my 0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:47.760 husband and I were buying a house of time and 0:03:47.960 --> 0:03:49.800 he met the real estate age in my real estate 0:03:49.840 --> 0:03:52.360 agent plum me aside. He was like, I can't understand 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:56.320 him because he has like there. He also like uses 0:03:56.440 --> 0:03:59.560 old school Southie words that are like like when I 0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:03.200 moved in college. He my roommate had a photo of 0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:05.720 her and her boyfriend at the time, and he was like, ah, 0:04:05.760 --> 0:04:09.800 is that your huga? And she was like excuse me, 0:04:09.840 --> 0:04:11.920 and I was like, huga he means is that you're 0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:16.600 like boyfriend guy? He like he calls coins silva. It's 0:04:16.640 --> 0:04:19.599 almost like he's trying to hit the lack of the 0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:21.880 R on where it's really crazy. He's like, it's pilot 0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:29.800 seats hid, you got to get my brand. But but yes, 0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:33.719 back to me and c J. For listeners who don't know, 0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:36.880 I'm sure you haven't talked about it. Um No, I 0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:39.520 mean I don't. There's not much to know.

We just happened to be in New York 0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:02.240 on like a field trip. It's the only way it 0:05:02.240 --> 0:05:04.359 can be described because they were all very poor and 0:05:04.800 --> 0:05:08.919 immature and very and c J was like, I'm in 0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:10.839 town and we went and had pizza with him and 0:05:11.040 --> 0:05:15.080 you know at my hotel. Yeah, he had like a tie. 0:05:15.640 --> 0:05:21.200 It was not ready for the guys famously because we 0:05:21.200 --> 0:05:24.080 still have them and love them, took This was pre 0:05:24.320 --> 0:05:26.640 thirst trap because there wasn't even Instagram.

How old because I was howling. 0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:44.320 And so then you guys were you shared an office? Yeah, 0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:47.240 we both somehow got hired. Well, the thing is too 0:05:47.279 --> 0:05:49.520 when they fly, it's also a complete waste of money. 0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:51.480 Not that they don't have the money, but like they 0:05:51.520 --> 0:05:54.600 basically know they're hiring you because they like they flew 0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:56.960 us both out from California. We didn't know each other, 0:05:57.320 --> 0:05:59.120 you know what I remember.

Do you know, like, do you have 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:12.400 any tips? It was more than anybody it almost like 0:06:12.800 --> 0:06:16.720 it makes me embarrassed now to this day too for 0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:18.400 people to know he's my husband and be like, you 0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:23.760 probably got an email from him or first got unsolicited 0:06:23.800 --> 0:06:27.560 emails from me.

This is 0:06:46.960 --> 0:06:49.520 the most embarrassed because this is the one and only 0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:53.279 like embarrassing unsolicited. I sent Sean O'Connor, who had never 0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:58.240 met you, the name names um and Facebook message that 0:06:58.400 --> 0:07:02.480 I would be willing to do whatever job they needed 0:07:02.520 --> 0:07:05.200 me to do on the Norm Sports show, and I 0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:07.520 ended it by being like you guys can put cigarettes 0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:10.560 out on me God, and like did I hear back? 0:07:10.680 --> 0:07:14.640 I don't think no.

Kevin was 0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:54.520 an EP too, Yeah, and you're just like, I think 0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:56.840 Jimmie talked for my whole meeting, and I was like, well, 0:07:56.880 --> 0:07:59.880 I didn't get it because I didn't speak, and they 0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:03.760 probably want I feel like I did not speak. I 0:08:03.760 --> 0:08:05.960 mean that that should have been. I feel like that's 0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:08.600 the note I should have got for the weeks that 0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:14.360 I was there. Um, but we shared an office. CJ 0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:18.880 and I shared an office for ten weeks. Uh yeah. 0:08:19.000 --> 0:08:21.400 And then they had to get you away from him. 0:08:21.800 --> 0:08:24.000 They were like, they're like, yeah, we can't have him 0:08:24.000 --> 0:08:27.600 playing hockey in the hallways anymore. My greatest memory, probably 0:08:27.880 --> 0:08:31.080 of my entire time at that show is the day 0:08:31.200 --> 0:08:34.199 do you remember this, the day your credit card was hacked? 0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:38.360 Oh my god, yes, this is an insane story that 0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:41.200 only you know my credit card because I used to 0:08:41.240 --> 0:08:44.640 take But this before is pre uber. I was flying 0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:47.120 back from Chicago and I would take cars from the 0:08:47.120 --> 0:08:49.920 airport back down to Manhattan and it would just be 0:08:50.080 --> 0:08:52.839 random people waiting for you at the baggage claim and 0:08:52.880 --> 0:08:54.120 be like, hey, I can give you a ride, and 0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:56.520 you're just like, oh great, And then I would swipe 0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:58.839 my card or I would give them my card and like, hey, 0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:01.000 my machines is not working, so they write down my number. 0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:04.600 And then my mom, who we had like we had, 0:09:04.840 --> 0:09:06.880 she had access to my bank account. She saw it. 0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:10.040 She's like, are you calling sex hotlines? And I was 0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:14.280 like what um? And we're sharing an office and I 0:09:14.360 --> 0:09:17.440 barely know this man and I hear him and like 0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:20.040 I could hear your mom yelling through the phone and 0:09:20.080 --> 0:09:25.680 you're like, God, no, Mom, and it's like you're out work, 0:09:25.720 --> 0:09:29.800 and I'm like, I mean, was this before after the incident? 0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:33.320 This was after. He's not going to want to go 0:09:33.400 --> 0:09:36.600 into it, but he did overdraft a bank account on 0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:40.000 something sexy. I guess I have. I'm a sex addict, 0:09:40.120 --> 0:09:42.080 and so that's why I'm like, I don't think it's 0:09:42.080 --> 0:09:45.440 that crazy. That your mom asked this base because when 0:09:45.480 --> 0:09:51.760 you to even more so, then my I called my 0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:54.040 credit card company and then they gave me the phone 0:09:54.080 --> 0:09:57.040 number to where my card was being used. Wait, they 0:09:57.040 --> 0:10:00.439 wanted you to like them. I mean a bank, isn't Yeah, 0:10:00.440 --> 0:10:02.160 I mean they're like, you need to call this place. 0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:04.280 You need to see what's going on, who's using your card. 0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:08.559 And then I called that sex hotline and was like, hey, 0:10:08.679 --> 0:10:11.760 I think someone's using my card. Gave my card number, 0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:14.719 which again should probably shouldn't have done that, and then 0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:17.920 they're like, Okay, here's what we're gonna do. We record 0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:21.120 every message, so we're going to play the messages so 0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:24.480 you can confirm it's not you. And so I'm like, 0:10:24.960 --> 0:10:27.880 I'm finding this. It's all unfolding in front of me, 0:10:28.080 --> 0:10:29.360 and I'm like, you know, I'm gonna put them on 0:10:29.440 --> 0:10:33.000 speaker so my office mates can can confirm that this 0:10:33.080 --> 0:10:36.439 is actually happening, and it's a dude just literally getting 0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:39.600 off on my my bank. You don't need to listen 0:10:39.640 --> 0:10:41.440 to the whole thing. I was, yeah, I mean it 0:10:41.520 --> 0:10:42.760 was like a minute and I was like no, no, 0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:45.760 but I had to confirm because he did it multiple times. 0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:48.560 I had to be like, Yep, that wasn't me. That 0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:50.440 wasn't me. That wasn't like they made you do so 0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:55.240 much legwork. It wasn't me. But I do think your 0:10:55.280 --> 0:10:58.760 girls sound lovely. I love what they're doing to call 0:10:58.840 --> 0:11:01.640 in the future.

All right, Well, 0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:44.360 we'll get into some of the history of our careers 0:11:44.679 --> 0:11:47.520 because I and I didn't mean to force this topic 0:11:47.800 --> 0:11:50.080 on you, Jen, because he did text me last night, 0:11:50.800 --> 0:11:52.360 You're like, I don't know if this would be I 0:11:52.360 --> 0:11:54.960 think my exact message was your podcast is in danger. 0:11:55.280 --> 0:11:58.079 Well when he because he came in and was like, 0:11:58.440 --> 0:12:01.360 I know what Jen should do, and I feel they 0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:04.240 actually needed him to explain what he meant like that, 0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:06.480 I'll do a little bit of explaining. Um. So, the 0:12:06.559 --> 0:12:10.880 topic for today's episode is the greatest athlete cameos, and 0:12:11.360 --> 0:12:13.000 I think we can make a little bit broad. It's 0:12:13.040 --> 0:12:16.680 anytime an athlete is on a TV show or movie 0:12:16.679 --> 0:12:19.400 and they're playing themselves. So I feel like it's a 0:12:19.400 --> 0:12:21.240 little bit blurred lines here, you know, because some of 0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:24.079 these characters are big parts, and I feel like maybe 0:12:24.080 --> 0:12:25.960 you mentioned Jen that you might have one that is 0:12:25.960 --> 0:12:31.319 like a legitimate costar in a movie. But so should 0:12:31.360 --> 0:12:32.559 we just get it right into it? Do you want 0:12:32.559 --> 0:12:34.840 to start? Megan? I think so yeah, I'm ready to 0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:37.400 go my first one. Maybe it's good I'm going first. 0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:40.800 It's kind of a downer and it's very CJ will know. 0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:42.600 This is very strange for me. This is a Pittsburgh 0:12:42.720 --> 0:12:47.319 Steeler that I decided to spotlight. But it is such 0:12:47.360 --> 0:12:51.560 a crazy, wild scene and I do remember watching it 0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:54.840 in the movie theater being like, well, uh, hinds Ward 0:12:55.000 --> 0:13:00.120 in the dark knight rises. Oh yeah, that is so 0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:05.320 and I rewatched the clip today and and it's funny 0:13:05.360 --> 0:13:08.440 because they like pan both full teams, and Gotham is 0:13:08.480 --> 0:13:13.360 playing like rip City or some rapid city. And you 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:15.320 see all of these players and you're like, that's not 0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:17.640 that's not an athlete. That's not an athlete, that's not 0:13:17.800 --> 0:13:20.439 w And then you see Kinds Ward and you're like, okay, 0:13:20.440 --> 0:13:24.120 wait are the other Steelers here? And then the kickoff 0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:28.199 happens and the stadium is like starting to collapse. I 0:13:28.240 --> 0:13:31.559 think Kind's Ward had a note for the director too, 0:13:31.800 --> 0:13:39.160 because he completes a touchdown while the field and I 0:13:39.200 --> 0:13:41.000 think that was not how it was supposed to go. 0:13:41.040 --> 0:13:45.200 And he was like, yeah, but I'm so focused. Ten 0:13:45.240 --> 0:13:49.079 thousand people could die and I would still be going 0:13:49.160 --> 0:13:51.800 for the goal line. Baby, you can't make me look 0:13:51.880 --> 0:13:54.800 bad exactly, even if I'm about to die and the 0:13:54.840 --> 0:13:59.240 earth is cratering below. You can make me selfish because 0:13:59.280 --> 0:14:02.679 I'm not been looking at the human carnage around me. 0:14:03.040 --> 0:14:05.840 But I would never stop that a kickoff charge. It 0:14:05.960 --> 0:14:08.960 is funny because I recall him him like running and 0:14:09.000 --> 0:14:12.560 like running very far until realizing everything has collapsed behind him, 0:14:12.840 --> 0:14:16.120 Like I touched him. I hear someone sneezing like nine 0:14:16.160 --> 0:14:20.240 houses down from hers, Like you don't realize that the 0:14:20.280 --> 0:14:22.920 world is collapsing behind. Like I guess Hines War was 0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:24.880 that good? He was. It was also like years after 0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:29.280 he retired, right, it was not prime heinz. Yeah for sure. 0:14:29.360 --> 0:14:31.480 I have to like, as I'm not a football fan, 0:14:31.640 --> 0:14:34.000 how how famous is he? Can you give me an NBA? 0:14:35.240 --> 0:14:39.200 He was? He's been commercials. I'm think bigger than that 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:42.040 because he did um he did. He has like a 0:14:42.160 --> 0:14:45.560 very recognizable face and he was also on the Steelers 0:14:45.560 --> 0:14:48.040 teams that were really really good. So it's not a 0:14:48.120 --> 0:14:52.320 Kevin but like I think he's a famous Smith. Yeah, 0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:55.280 you have to infamous that way. You have to wonder 0:14:55.360 --> 0:14:58.040 how much did it really add to the movie that 0:14:58.200 --> 0:15:02.480 it was a real player. I feel if anything distract Yeah, yeah, 0:15:02.720 --> 0:15:05.840 that was the That was the Batman that was filmed 0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:11.760 in Pittsburgh, and so I think that they somebody was like, 0:15:11.800 --> 0:15:14.400 we gotta get a Steelers player. You know, Ben was 0:15:14.440 --> 0:15:19.400 busy with his Equit didn't call it the Steelers, you know, 0:15:19.640 --> 0:15:23.320 And I've been looking at and researching licensing just calling 0:15:23.320 --> 0:15:26.320 the Steelers. Also, every third person in Pittsburgh looks like 0:15:26.320 --> 0:15:29.600 a football player, you know, but not like hind not 0:15:29.680 --> 0:15:33.840 like a kick returner. But the NFL is so bad 0:15:33.880 --> 0:15:36.680 with licensing, right, they probably never even for that huge 0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:39.520 driven movie, did do it? I mean, but then they 0:15:39.560 --> 0:15:42.720 wouldn't have gone to play Rapid City. Yeah, Rapid City? 0:15:42.720 --> 0:15:45.840 Who was black and yellow? No? Um, Gotham was black 0:15:45.840 --> 0:15:49.720 and yellow. Rapid City is blue? See, I don't remember, well, 0:15:50.080 --> 0:15:53.160 I mean I watched it today. That's a that's a 0:15:53.200 --> 0:15:57.440 great one. Does Hindesward have any other credits on his IMDb? Um, 0:15:57.480 --> 0:15:59.120 not that I think so, but I know that he 0:16:00.040 --> 0:16:03.280 And now I'm like, am I just confusing Troy Polamalo's 0:16:03.720 --> 0:16:07.640 head and Shoulders commercial? Ward? Do you know who that is? Jim? 0:16:08.240 --> 0:16:11.280 I don't love that someone did a head and shoulders? Yeah, 0:16:11.320 --> 0:16:15.000 And now he's he's reprised. He's like beautiful big. He 0:16:15.120 --> 0:16:17.840 was like the first football player with a tuft of 0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:21.960 hair out of the helmet, and so that's how he 0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:24.640 sort of like rose to be the head and shoulders guy. 0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:27.560 And now he's in commercials with Patrick Mahomes. Got it? 0:16:27.640 --> 0:16:31.960 Got it? That's a whole subsection of this is athlete commercials. 0:16:32.280 --> 0:16:33.960 There are some good ones of that. That's a whole 0:16:33.960 --> 0:16:37.960 other episode. Look at me. I'm I'm producing for you guys. 0:16:40.640 --> 0:16:45.440 Also in The Walking Dead and also this is crazier. 0:16:45.560 --> 0:16:48.680 It was also on Dynasty the two thousand seventeen. Like 0:16:50.120 --> 0:16:52.280 he's an ye see, Like this is what I wanted 0:16:52.280 --> 0:16:54.800 to happen, is to find out these these athletes to 0:16:54.880 --> 0:16:58.320 get the acting bug and the like what TV shows 0:16:58.320 --> 0:17:00.200 will have me? And it's the Walking Day, you know. 0:17:00.520 --> 0:17:03.440 So he was on Dancing with the Stars too. I 0:17:03.480 --> 0:17:05.960 have friends that will be like, oh, that's who's that 0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:10.200 couple player? Just Matt. He was so nice? Does David Ross? 0:17:10.200 --> 0:17:11.720 And I'm like, how do you know David Ross? Like 0:17:11.800 --> 0:17:13.600 he was on Dancing with the Stars, So that like 0:17:13.800 --> 0:17:18.080 raises an athletes profile to the moms and aunts of 0:17:18.119 --> 0:17:20.959 the country. So I think that's kind of like And 0:17:21.160 --> 0:17:23.840 he did. He was on the Bachelorette too. I mean, 0:17:23.880 --> 0:17:27.000 I'm proud of him. He was in The Dark Knight 0:17:27.080 --> 0:17:30.320 Raises after Dancing with the Stars. So he got an 0:17:30.359 --> 0:17:33.040 agent and he said, give me some work. He either 0:17:33.080 --> 0:17:36.560 has the acting bug or is in debt, has a 0:17:36.600 --> 0:17:39.520 gambling problem. I so far I don't believe he does. 0:17:40.080 --> 0:17:43.840 All right, that's a great one, Megan Jen, Yes, what 0:17:43.880 --> 0:17:45.720 do you got for your first pick? Okay, here's my 0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:48.440 first pick, and it's a weird one and it's great. 0:17:48.520 --> 0:17:50.879 It's very recent, so you might not even know about it, 0:17:51.080 --> 0:17:55.439 and it's not great in the acting, I believe, And 0:17:55.480 --> 0:17:57.560 I must say that I haven't seen every episode, but 0:17:57.600 --> 0:18:00.880 it might be greatest in the most what the fuck 0:18:01.000 --> 0:18:03.760 of it? Yes? Yes? Uh sorry, that was very Mark Marin. 0:18:04.760 --> 0:18:12.880 But Martina Navartalova on The Politician playing, do you guys 0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:15.639 know about this? I did not know about this act. 0:18:16.680 --> 0:18:21.600 It's true, it's real. I scared to god basically in 0:18:21.640 --> 0:18:25.159 The Politician. In the pilot, I believe, or the second episode, 0:18:25.640 --> 0:18:31.680 Gwyneth's character is married to Bob Balaban, but the conflict 0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:34.800 recently is that she has fallen in love with a 0:18:34.840 --> 0:18:40.080 horse trainer at her stable, played by Martina Navratalova. And 0:18:40.119 --> 0:18:42.760 they like, there's this cutaway to this dinner shot. It's 0:18:42.800 --> 0:18:47.240 this very extravagant dinner and her she plays this woman, Bridget, Bridget. 0:18:47.280 --> 0:18:48.919 I don't even know what they said, and it cuts 0:18:48.920 --> 0:18:52.200 to her and you're like, is that I think it? 0:18:53.160 --> 0:18:57.160 That's her? Yeah? Weird and it's so crazy, but also 0:18:57.280 --> 0:18:59.919 like such funny casting to me that they were like, 0:19:00.160 --> 0:19:02.800 this will be Gwenny's lover. Does it fit the tone 0:19:02.800 --> 0:19:05.520 of it? Is it like jarring? The tone of that 0:19:05.600 --> 0:19:10.280 show is interesting. It's very um I think it is 0:19:10.320 --> 0:19:13.440 like kind of it's supposed to be very, very campy, 0:19:14.040 --> 0:19:16.840 and so I think that is what they were going for. 0:19:17.000 --> 0:19:20.960 And in that vein, I'm like, Okay, that does make sense, right, 0:19:21.080 --> 0:19:25.199 That's that's camp being weird. Guess, yeah, I guess. I 0:19:25.240 --> 0:19:29.440 think it's strange that they didn't have Gwyneth leave her 0:19:29.520 --> 0:19:32.879 husband for her tennis instructor, which is to me like 0:19:32.880 --> 0:19:37.399 a class Maybe you didn't know someone that happened in 0:19:37.400 --> 0:19:45.159 real life left her her spouse for tennis and and 0:19:45.240 --> 0:19:47.840 I was like, that happens like in real life. And yes, 0:19:47.920 --> 0:19:51.240 so she needed to sell our old house immediately that 0:19:51.480 --> 0:19:53.760 me and my um oh, the guy who we just 0:19:53.800 --> 0:19:56.879 released ups at Wymer Thomas. We're living together, and she 0:19:57.200 --> 0:19:58.560 this is one of the I hope they don't listen. 0:19:58.600 --> 0:20:00.879 This is one of those l a women dresses like 0:20:01.040 --> 0:20:03.320 little house on the Prairie and drives a range of 0:20:03.359 --> 0:20:09.639 her She pick up the reason why she was renting 0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:12.359 out the house to us was because her friend of 0:20:12.400 --> 0:20:16.679 a friend owned a what's the architect I'm blanking you know, 0:20:17.080 --> 0:20:22.399 it's literally the most um, it's literally the most famous architect, 0:20:21.760 --> 0:20:27.560 Frankoy right in Pasadena. Like, we get to live there indefinitely. Wait, 0:20:27.760 --> 0:20:31.680 it was a Frankly frank in Pasadena, and my mom 0:20:31.720 --> 0:20:33.639 has brought up to me that there is a Frankly 0:20:33.800 --> 0:20:36.920 right in passagen So literally was like, we get the 0:20:36.960 --> 0:20:38.679 opportunity to live there, but we can't give up our 0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:41.200 house because we're trying to be reasonable about it. And 0:20:41.880 --> 0:20:46.119 they lived there and they got divorced because yeah, because 0:20:46.320 --> 0:20:49.160 which is interesting to have like one of the greatest 0:20:49.160 --> 0:20:51.800 tennis players of all time and make her be stable 0:20:51.960 --> 0:20:54.640 That had to have been intentional, right, because I guess 0:20:54.760 --> 0:20:58.159 first thought is like tennis instructor. Second thought is like 0:20:58.359 --> 0:21:02.280 personal trainer boy, cool boy, right, and then they got 0:21:02.320 --> 0:21:04.719 down to like someone at her I think it's a 0:21:04.760 --> 0:21:07.840 big feature of Gwenna's character that she rides horses and 0:21:07.920 --> 0:21:12.400 own horses and stuff. So that's probably But you're right, 0:21:12.920 --> 0:21:16.359 why not tennis instructor? I mean, a stable gal is 0:21:17.000 --> 0:21:25.199 pretty good, pretty good Indianapolis. Really he he hates it. 0:21:25.400 --> 0:21:29.200 He went to Karmel, which is like the I'm doing 0:21:29.240 --> 0:21:33.000 air quote the wealthy part of suburb of Indie. Yeah, 0:21:33.040 --> 0:21:36.879 he's not talking about indianapolists, you know, but Glee is 0:21:36.920 --> 0:21:42.200 apparently based on Carmel High School. Yeah, that's nice, that's sweet. 0:21:42.600 --> 0:21:45.639 I mean, now you guys start off so obscure that 0:21:45.880 --> 0:21:50.040 I don't feel bad. I mean mine was like mine 0:21:50.119 --> 0:21:53.080 is easing into it. And literally, I mean the specific 0:21:53.200 --> 0:21:56.359 it's Barkley in Space Jam, but more so I just 0:21:56.440 --> 0:21:59.800 want to shout out Barkley as like he's Cameo. He 0:21:59.800 --> 0:22:04.159 want onto Cameo and the Goldberg Simpsons Suits, Thunderstruck. And 0:22:04.200 --> 0:22:07.400 then also this is mainly for me, the Clerks cartoon, 0:22:07.560 --> 0:22:10.080 which is nothing like the Clerks movie. It's just like 0:22:10.080 --> 0:22:13.720 a cartoon that joke per second. Um, but he was 0:22:13.760 --> 0:22:18.959 in it playing himself, voicing himself, and I just Charles Barkley, 0:22:19.000 --> 0:22:22.880 and especially after this week, like I'm looking at these 0:22:22.920 --> 0:22:26.600 guys and I'm just like, it's so insane that these 0:22:26.680 --> 0:22:28.600 are the same guys who walk on the same earth 0:22:28.640 --> 0:22:32.200 as as like Shack and Barkley. Okay, amazing NFL or 0:22:32.480 --> 0:22:35.360 NBA players. And then they're also the funniest people I've 0:22:35.359 --> 0:22:42.000 ever I've ever seen is the funniest comedy on television. 0:22:42.280 --> 0:22:44.159 So and I know these guys are like, oh, hey day, 0:22:44.160 --> 0:22:45.800 I'm gonna go show up and I'm going to be 0:22:45.880 --> 0:22:49.360 the punchline. But I think Barkley transcends that. He has 0:22:49.440 --> 0:22:53.800 comedic timing on commercials are so funny. He's funny on 0:22:53.840 --> 0:22:56.720 his own, just like as an analyst, but anytime, And 0:22:56.760 --> 0:22:59.119 I think, like the most memorable lines in Space Jam 0:22:59.200 --> 0:23:01.560
